00:00:12.160 --> 00:00:37.280
stand al to the republic for which it stands. One nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all. The bureau will comply with notice provisions of sunshine law by adopting prior to January 10th of this year a

2
00:00:37.280 --> 00:00:56.879
resolution prescribing the dates time and location of all regular dates mission. This meeting is one of the meetings listed resolution and copies of the resolution were by January 10th file the verb. Um again with this being a working meeting as opposed to our commissioner's

3
00:00:56.879 --> 00:01:13.119
meetings all comments for the public are going to be in the beginning. So this is your opportunity if you have you're agenda. Okay. Um, um, so if there's any comments or questions for the public, this is the

4
00:01:13.119 --> 00:01:34.159
time to ask them or any feedback. Um, I just want to real quick, I see two of my chicken ladies here. Um, we are in the office. We're still working on it. Um, it was, as you see, Jim is currently

5
00:01:34.159 --> 00:01:49.600
on vacation. He only got back like 22 hours ago. Uh, and I was gone for most for the month of June. So, we are just trying to pull some things together, but we're we have it all up on our desk and we're discussing and thank you all.

6
00:01:49.600 --> 00:02:04.159
>> Yeah. Um, I think internally we were working on any questions that we have. Yeah, just like because we finally got the resolution that you will proposing and just kind of put it back in some more. >> Okay, great. So, there's no discussion

7
00:02:04.159 --> 00:02:22.239
on the agenda today. Okay, cool. Um, however, if we come on questions, uh, obviously we got to I have two contacts. Okay, that just perfect. Okay. All right. So seeing that

8
00:02:22.239 --> 00:02:40.160
there's no public comment, we will move on to uh ordinances. So again, we did not have our July meeting because we did Oh, sorry. Sorry. Go ahead. Motion to file tax

9
00:02:40.160 --> 00:03:14.239
reporting officer reports. So move Okay. So now I can say that uh we did not have our July commissioners meeting because there would have been forum. We did not have enough uh us here and we decided since we had this already on the books. two of us are going to be here,

10
00:03:14.239 --> 00:03:29.519
which is why we're going to be introducing three ordinances, which is not generally customary for uh working meetings, but because of the summer schedule, we just wanted to get things rolling. Ordinances need to be read twice. So, uh that's why there are three ordinances. Follow me if you would like

11
00:03:29.519 --> 00:03:43.599
to. Yes. Um we have the uh first reading of ordinance 1836, amending chapter 217 code recreation. Um, so real quick, what this is is this

12
00:03:43.599 --> 00:04:00.000
is adding uh just a $50 fee for the uh the remote control part registration fee. Um I don't what was the fee before me? It was new. >> It's new establishing. Okay. It's establishing the fee. Um otherwise

13
00:04:00.000 --> 00:04:16.239
nothing else is is changing. Uh the remote control car park car park is over on the west side. It's a new uh space that Marcus Bell has been working on um with the help of the burrow um to create.

14
00:04:16.239 --> 00:04:30.880
They're essentially little cars that are all electrical and there's a lot of STEM work that can be done uh to create the cars and build the cars and uh and then also a lot of like engineering for the

15
00:04:30.880 --> 00:04:48.400
kids to help create the track. Uh and so it's a relatively good spot of land. It's across from the uh the community garden on Thank you. Um so this is just establishing that fee to participate in

16
00:04:48.400 --> 00:05:06.000
that activity. The second meeting for that will be um at the August 3rd at the August 3rd uh and public meeting that would be >> yes

17
00:05:06.000 --> 00:05:26.160
for the first reason or 18377 amend 287 section 6 and supply. So essentially we have found out we put in our charging our chargers we have not since they went in changed the fee um

18
00:05:26.160 --> 00:05:42.880
and we found that we are not charging what you're supposed to be charging for that so it's kind of coming out of our pocket uh so we are going to change the language in the resolution as opposed to it being a straight exact fee it'll be

19
00:05:42.880 --> 00:06:00.160
based on so what we did we're changing the language in the code to reflect that our fees for electrical service stations are going to be amended by resolution so it's easier for the bureau to address

20
00:06:00.160 --> 00:06:16.560
those fees um and update them as necessary so I anticipate at the next meeting upon adoption of this ordinance there another resolution adopted currently with new updated subs and these

21
00:06:16.560 --> 00:06:34.120
are going to be based off of feedback from cross county connection and transportation management association there the vendors figure out really what is the appropriate this isn't us making it up it's us asking what is the appropriate

22
00:06:36.639 --> 00:07:05.039
>> sorry about that >> yes and the public and the public session for that will be August 3rd Uh, introducing ordinance 1838 AI computer nodes as as prohibited use

23
00:07:05.039 --> 00:07:25.599
>> AI computer nodes and access. >> So right now you will see um in New Jersey a growing list of municipalities that are passing regulations data centers and their technology data

24
00:07:25.599 --> 00:07:43.199
center data center. Uh the technology is evolving at an extremely fast pace. So right now the burrow is considered placing a whole ban on data centers in the burough right now. um with the thought of actually

25
00:07:43.199 --> 00:07:58.720
placing conditions and looking at restrictions moving forward, but to give us time to do that um they're they're looking at the ban right now and making data centers and the AI nodes

26
00:07:58.720 --> 00:08:13.840
uh a prohibited use within the bur and the language in this ordinance was also worked on by our planner. Correct? Yes. This ordinance was prepared by myself in conjunction with our planner. um children definitions and they are very

27
00:08:13.840 --> 00:08:29.919
similar to other municipalities for who are likewise establishing uh proficient on data centers within the boundaries of their municipalities and we have brought this up at some previous sessions before um but just to add that I did read in

28
00:08:29.919 --> 00:08:45.839
the New York Times this morning that New York State had today made a one-year pause on these for similar reasons just it's moving so quickly until kind of more regul ations etc come out. Um also I know that there is a large uh investment being considered by the

29
00:08:45.839 --> 00:09:01.040
county for water for water infrastructure and so as more is being found out I would really like to hear more about the environmental impacts of this and what that would mean for county and our town. So, this feels like the right moment to pause uh see what all

30
00:09:01.040 --> 00:09:30.880
this looks like, get ahead of it before it goes into yes, I find policy cover taxes for 100% single veterans. Yeah, it's something that just like

31
00:09:30.880 --> 00:09:53.920
established what's been our law policy for our veteran exemption. Um, we didn't have it. So, just Gabriella as parttime service.

32
00:09:53.920 --> 00:10:16.399
>> Yes. Authorization of the grant application is yours. >> Yes. >> Yes. Paul introducing the 2026 business improvement district budget. Commissioner.

33
00:10:16.399 --> 00:10:30.720
>> Yes. >> Yes. So the business improvement district is cons with partners. That's thank you. >> It's just to make it very clear for everyone. They have they are a

34
00:10:30.720 --> 00:10:46.240
nonprofit. They operate we the director of is also Lindy Ferguson who also has other hats to the burrow but they operate as a nonprofit. They have their own budget. They do their own audit and this is using the budget that they have

35
00:10:46.240 --> 00:11:03.279
pulled together. and approving the rescheduled Independence Day celebration. >> Yes. Yes. And we have one that is not on agenda. It is the

36
00:11:03.279 --> 00:11:20.959
resolution um proposing ordinance 1830 uh 38 centers to the planning board. >> Yes. >> Yeah. through the bills as presented by the

37
00:11:20.959 --> 00:11:41.839
treasur. >> Yes, >> I have not voted to approve the following bill. I still work for the calling foundation on the arts until I have answers in an opinion regarding potential conflict. >> So that will not pass. There's not

38
00:11:41.839 --> 00:12:18.639
authority to pay it. >> So you can't pay it. But yeah, you can't pay that specific one. You don't have majority. We have it. The Rotary made a request for peaceful and so we asked

39
00:12:18.639 --> 00:12:36.079
Representative the Rotary to come and kind of us through what that would look like, what the request is. Um I'm K. I'm the current president for the problem of Rotary Club and um one of the

40
00:12:36.079 --> 00:12:53.839
projects we'd like to sort of in case know about breweries one of missions are to bring business together um in our in our small little burrows or wherever we're located. So, one of the one of the projects we have

41
00:12:53.839 --> 00:13:11.200
this year will be on peace polls. Um, I have pictures of them if you want to see. You say peaceful plural. >> Yes, we were thinking too when at the beginning of or doesn't have to be it could be at

42
00:13:11.200 --> 00:13:31.920
school or at the library or at at um we're open to suggestions of this. Okay. And how Okay. So you can keep going. So here's the pictures of the piece. This is actually

43
00:13:31.920 --> 00:13:51.200
um the first time I did this last year. This most peaceful project was presented by Rotary as a as a peace mission to bring um not only community but the world in our community together and

44
00:13:51.200 --> 00:14:10.000
see what I can't quite tell from this photo but there's a voting box. Is it invisible? I'm quite sure. I think so. I think it's square. additional stuff to the middle school community. And what I what they were

45
00:14:10.000 --> 00:14:24.880
hoping to do was to really involve community um the the rural office, the school, the maybe even finding a way to get so part of the school system, right?

46
00:14:24.880 --> 00:14:41.600
>> They are sending you to the high school. So as many pieces of the community involved in either installation of the dedication of these bowls.

47
00:14:41.600 --> 00:15:00.320
Um, those are a lot of stakeholders. I would encourage you to see if those stakeholders would like to be involved. Uh, because that that's a pretty heavy lift getting everybody to show up, who wants it, where, and see if the school district has somewhere that

48
00:15:00.320 --> 00:15:17.519
they would like to put it. Uh upkeep is always the the concern, right? For something like this, it's uh make making sure the grass around it is that that's more work or where is it fan the rhythm. Um is there going to be a camera

49
00:15:17.519 --> 00:15:34.959
on it? Things like that. Uh so finding a partner that like sure I really wanted to hear that might need this footage. I I don't know. Um, so I would maybe shop around to see who may have the interest

50
00:15:34.959 --> 00:15:57.600
in putting it on their property. Um, together, but I don't want to recommend a spot in town that's our land if the district might have a spot that they wouldn't mind doing it on. Uh, okay. just because we do have to consider

51
00:15:57.600 --> 00:16:14.959
horseback and uh so just before we start saying yeah it's going to be at the corner of see if the school district would like to do so >> okay school district what about the library I ask what is that considered >> um library grass we have to bring

52
00:16:14.959 --> 00:16:31.839
concrete they they can surface mountain as well at least that is considered concrete but they can these bowls can also be surface mountain they don't Um I read on your there are 250,000 around the world. Can you tell us more

53
00:16:31.839 --> 00:16:50.079
like about our surrounding communities? Is there I know this is more but are there others around? There are. Yeah, I think um Sure. These are main so many in South Jersey that have done it

54
00:16:50.079 --> 00:17:06.880
but you know I didn't although I read about it I cannot remember. I think there's a good club out of all of the Rotary clubs we have in New Jersey that have at least have done that because that's what we were talking about at the um the

55
00:17:06.880 --> 00:17:23.760
president's training this year. Yeah, I think it would be helpful and we can also look into this but knowing where some of the others were and if if uh if those worked out as good spaces, what's at the library at the school that like a friend or something makes kind of

56
00:17:23.760 --> 00:17:40.480
sense don't have a principal house or something like that. Just knowing where the users are think would be helpful. I can do that. And then where would I just send you? >> Yeah. You want to send that to us? Um and then u it would also be helpful if

57
00:17:40.480 --> 00:17:58.160
you have a specific space. Uh if it is the library that you want to go into or the schools can also help put you in touch. Um I think as the mayor mentioned having the stakeholders involved so we're not you know making any decisions have so the school would be a great

58
00:17:58.160 --> 00:18:14.400
place um a bunch of the members said what about where the fountain is or what about so consider the fountain get hit by but the fountain gets hit all the time. >> Oh does it >> ask how many times you fil right now

59
00:18:14.400 --> 00:18:31.280
did not know that. Okay. >> So, so on you know everyone's gone for summer right now. So once August meetings start up again and everyone's there I better get consensus of what people think. >> I definitely think this is something worthwhile with discussing I just with

60
00:18:31.280 --> 00:18:48.160
this as large scope as you mentioned of all the people involved take a little bit of time to to wrangle all those all those different people. Uh but finding a space for it I think is your first and I would say probably start with one. Let's see how it goes with one. Okay.

61
00:18:48.160 --> 00:19:16.640
>> Uh make sure that we can upkeep it properly. uh things like that before. >> What about the space where um Sarah's grocery service? >> No, that's something to think about.

62
00:19:16.640 --> 00:19:33.679
comfortable. I would be interested to see if the high school now high school sort of works in their places and having it like by their flag or something you know it's something you know for all the on their campus for the kids to see every day that might be something that you're interested in um that we

63
00:19:33.679 --> 00:19:49.760
obviously supportive of but uh would be on their land. So I don't want to like plain again I think you should do a little bit more homework about who's interested in having it on their property and then if the schools say no we don't want to then we can kind of square back to places that we think

64
00:19:49.760 --> 00:20:18.520
would be appropriate an eye on it a lovely idea let's just a little more. That's great in where to feed it, know where to start. Yeah. Once you get involved, I was like, this is a bigger discussion. So, thanks for

65
00:20:19.280 --> 00:20:34.640
>> Daniela. >> So, yes, I have question. Yeah. Um, I think this was meant for the discussion >> part, but they didn't get it in quick enough. So, um, this is from Leah Foreman, 501 South Vineyard Boulevard. She says a group of citizens wants to

66
00:20:34.640 --> 00:20:51.039
start the petition process to put liquor licenses on the ballot in November. They have the petition language drafted um and want to check whether the language was correct and who should they email that to to check if the language is correct. >> So copy of this UK line that you put

67
00:20:51.039 --> 00:21:08.000
together. So, I had um you know, I can't give legal advice to the public, but for the liquor license referendum, it's not the same type of referendum where you have to include all of the language in an

68
00:21:08.000 --> 00:21:23.840
ordinance for a different type of voter initiative referendum. The liquor license referendum is pretty straightforward. there is a statutory clause that goes on the ballot if circulate this petition and the petition

69
00:21:23.840 --> 00:21:40.960
is successful. Um that language uh I can provide the holiday because that's basically from the statute. Um the it it's not as precise as what the other

70
00:21:40.960 --> 00:21:57.919
referendum languages. So provided that the petition contains language that shows the people signing the petition know exactly what they are signing the petition in favor for. You should meet the standards best practices to include

71
00:21:57.919 --> 00:22:18.000
the exact same language that's at the U in the statute. and remind us if if the amount the correct number of signatures would take upwards of so the the process so in order to get a

72
00:22:18.000 --> 00:22:34.960
referendum on the ballot by November the petition would have to contain signatures of 15% of the voters from the last general election. Um there was debate on the numbers. Are we using the ballots cast or the votes casted? If we

73
00:22:34.960 --> 00:22:51.280
use the ballot cast, that is the number of voters who came to vote. If we use the number of votes cast um if you vote at a general election, sometimes you can vote for more than one person um for

74
00:22:51.280 --> 00:23:06.400
general assembly. You have multiple options. So if you look at your votes cast, it's more than the actual voters that turned out. So heard uh with the camp county elections it's the number of docs. So looking at your past numbers we

75
00:23:06.400 --> 00:23:23.120
uh slightly over um 1100 signatures I believe or 1,11 signatures >> 1 is the minimal threshold. Um but if you're circulating petitions the people who are signing petitions have to be

76
00:23:23.120 --> 00:23:39.440
registered voters and name your municipality. So any petition I've ever seen, there is always a large handful of signatures that are ultimately lost because they're just not registered to vote or maybe they're registered to vote in a

77
00:23:39.440 --> 00:23:56.080
different municipality. So it's always best practice to get a considerable number as a buffer for those petitioners signatures just so you meet the minimal threshold. Um, as far as timelines, you have to submit the petition to the

78
00:23:56.080 --> 00:24:12.480
municipality. Uh, our clerk py then has to have time to go through the petition to look at it to confirm the signatures uh meet those requirements, the number of signatures that the registered voters in the municipality.

79
00:24:12.480 --> 00:24:29.360
Um and then what uh the board of commissioners would be obligated to do is um if you meet that minimum number threshold, they would have to pass a resolution referring the ballot question to campaign clerk elections. The latest

80
00:24:29.360 --> 00:24:45.600
date that possibly done is August 21st. Uh we do have a meeting on August 19th. So, if we pass a resolution on that date, it could be to the uh the county

81
00:24:45.600 --> 00:25:03.039
in time. Um but in order to give our clerk a time to review the petition, um she would that by August 7th. >> Oh, by 12. Yeah. Soon on August 7th. Even better if there's more time for

82
00:25:03.039 --> 00:25:21.039
her. Um and because of the kind of referendum question it is and because of our there's a prohibition if it does not pass it cannot be put on the ballot again for uh five years.

83
00:25:21.039 --> 00:25:38.480
>> Right? So um once it goes to the ballot it's either it's a simple major. There will be a question printed on the ballot asking if uh voters of the municipality would like to see the sale of uh plary

84
00:25:38.480 --> 00:25:55.279
liquor licenses in town. So those are your bars, restaurants, types of liquor licenses. Majority vote more vote in favor then the municipality would pass ordinances. If uh more people disfavor

85
00:25:55.279 --> 00:26:14.240
it then the bureau would be preempted from making any actions or move forward with another referendum or process related to that or a minimum of five. Well, thank you for going through all those boundaries

86
00:26:14.240 --> 00:26:42.640
for I hope that answered all questions. It is um 501 South Vineyard Boulevard. >> Is there any anything else discussed? That that was a discussion item beyond just answering >> she said thank you >> uh question. Is there anything else? There have been a bunch of emails that

87
00:26:42.640 --> 00:26:59.039
we've got up on about other referendums etc. I haven't said a lot but I was catching up on on vacation but I think that was a good summary at least. >> Yes. And this is pertaining only to the liquor lane. >> Yes. >> Um there were some questions about other

88
00:26:59.039 --> 00:27:15.919
um ballot initiatives like representative questions both those would have to meet the same. >> No. So there's different regulations. >> Yeah. So emails got some confusing. Yeah. So if there's an interest for a voter initiative referendum, that would

89
00:27:15.919 --> 00:27:29.919
be something that >> that's not liquor related. >> Yeah, the the liquor license are covered by different statutes. But for if residents want to see the the bureau adopt a specific ordinance, they could

90
00:27:29.919 --> 00:27:47.440
go through a petition process as well. um that those petition processes have to be more precise and they have to contain exact language of the ordinance that they would want to see adopt. Um there are different threshold

91
00:27:47.440 --> 00:28:02.640
requirements. You need 10 15% of or under 10 to 15% gets it on the next general election regardless of when you turn it in. 15% or more uh could trigger a special

92
00:28:02.640 --> 00:28:21.279
election. I would encourage anyone who wants to do a voter initiative referendum to contact the commissioners before you do that because that's a lot of work to do and you might have support from commissioners to do it in process.

93
00:28:21.279 --> 00:28:38.399
Um, and I will say that, you know, sometimes with voter initiative referendums, if you're not looking at ordinances that have already been adopted, there are issues that, you know, you could be potentially trying to get the burrow to adopt an ordinance

94
00:28:38.399 --> 00:28:54.880
that might not be enforceable have certain authority to enforce certain things. So, you know, you could go through the whole process and get on the ballot and then we could wind up being sued because we're not able to

95
00:28:54.880 --> 00:29:16.399
enforce something. So, if you're considering that, I highly uh recommend meeting with the commissioner talking that collaborative process. So, what's the process? what happened in the past. What's what's your process

96
00:29:16.399 --> 00:29:32.960
when those things come to you? You're the one meeting with the resident who would you know say here this is the petition that I want to circulate. Um is there does the bureau have a process for like okay we see you want to do this we want to have a meeting first something kind

97
00:29:32.960 --> 00:29:49.600
because had it not been for the emails going back and forth I don't even know would have been aware. >> So I I requested that the ordinance that was being circulated over we're forwarded to you. >> Okay. Um if they haven't said it yet

98
00:29:49.600 --> 00:30:05.679
then that's >> then that's where it stands and the timeline is the same seventh um do by the 7th to do >> for the same timeline right >> and again though it sounds like there seems to be a little more leniency if

99
00:30:05.679 --> 00:30:23.120
it's not a liquor specific that even if it got into say October it if it's below 15% it would just be ready for the next general all that >> but but if it's 15% or higher it could trigger a special election but that

100
00:30:23.120 --> 00:30:43.039
carries costs for the taxpayers so this >> right okay we have not seen >> all right thank you I appreciate that we're all learning about our civics we're learning more about civics every day here uh

101
00:30:43.039 --> 00:31:03.120
all right anything else on petitions All right. Um, product demonstration. Sure hats. Yes. So, this is in regards to the intersection of Browning, which has been a topic of discussion here as well as where Collins meets Battlewood.

102
00:31:03.120 --> 00:31:21.200
Um, they're linked, but also Collins and Brown, which was slightly outside the scope of this trial plan project. Um, because we wanted a little more information on how to proceed. We asked county to perform a traffic study on

103
00:31:21.200 --> 00:31:36.640
treatments that would help places to be and what they found today um some crashed out of them. They did that study. It's still in direct form but um there are some recommendations of potentially bats which for those who

104
00:31:36.640 --> 00:31:53.440
don't know they make the corners wider. they pinch the roads but those have this slower turning radius. Um and also so people are walking have less distance that they're actually in the streets. >> Correct. So those are suggested

105
00:31:53.440 --> 00:32:10.640
treatments. They are not cheap or quick. So we are looking at getting efficient much cheaper and quicker option of um demonstration a demonstration project for this which would put up the temporary delineators as bump out. So

106
00:32:10.640 --> 00:32:26.399
folks kind of get used to the process. We can then track how folks are handling. It's a better and then demonstration project. So study demonstration projects and then that'll put us in line to hopefully get grant funded. We like how the demonstration is working. So so that would be similar to

107
00:32:26.399 --> 00:32:43.440
the crosswalk uh across Collings right before Pato. at the farmers market which we kind of went through that process that we had the ramps that were plastic ramps with those little orange cones and then a year later actually built the

108
00:32:43.440 --> 00:32:59.120
buff out uh which is what's there right now and that's so that that process yeah allow us to do like a little test run while we apply for uh similarly we had questions about uh adding like a pinch point bump out where

109
00:32:59.120 --> 00:33:17.120
counts because folks pass on the schools are there obviously um to our county as a medical to add in the lineators there as well. So that full run should see um pinching the traffic cal measures the temporary

110
00:33:17.120 --> 00:33:33.600
versions hopefully. We're hopeful they'll be invited before school starts. >> Wonderful. Thank you. >> I think the key for the messaging is these are temporary. >> They really are wonderful ways to test the measures are helpful. Um give us

111
00:33:33.600 --> 00:33:48.480
time but then explain to people how these things work. Some of those are aware of uh these kinds of treatments, some of those aren't and they might sort of agitating at first, which is kind of the point, but it also allows us to work

112
00:33:48.480 --> 00:34:04.080
on the messaging understand why things and the process of it, you know, getting used to it and seeing where it would be and also just kudos to you guys because you had reached out to the county and they did do this study which they can't do all of the studies that are requested.

113
00:34:04.080 --> 00:34:23.839
Uh so thanks for being those and that's them. They uh they work pretty good. They really did. >> Um I'm going to Amy alluded to it and u the county had a press conference on it yesterday but I just want to kind of

114
00:34:23.839 --> 00:34:40.800
touch base on it here. Um the county is proposing the largest investment in the watershed and water infrastructure in the district county. Um it's a $400 million 10year project to

115
00:34:40.800 --> 00:34:58.240
uh work on sewage infrastructure uh dledging. Um the ultimate goal is to have river be swimmable in the ne for the next generation. Um they worked with an amazingly large group of stakeholders

116
00:34:58.240 --> 00:35:14.079
to come up with their plan. Uh they are they're speaking of referendums and things. They're going to be under ballots. They're they're they proposed it at their at the county commissioners meeting yesterday. There will be a ballot referendum asking to increase the

117
00:35:14.079 --> 00:35:29.440
open space tax by one penny. Currently the open space c space tax in Camden County is 2 cents. Uh our neighbors in Burlington and Gloucester are four cents. So their proposal is to increase it by one penny for three cents. Um the

118
00:35:29.440 --> 00:35:45.680
average would be an increase of $18 per household per year. So you know $5 a quarter for for homeowners. Um and that would generate $7 million which the same way that we go to IB and that's

119
00:35:45.680 --> 00:36:03.119
what we're doing for our water treatment plants. There is a state agency that they would be able to apply for funding to do a lot of these infrastructure projects and $7 million a year dedicated that what kind of be dedicated to pay back all of the work uh to be done for

120
00:36:03.119 --> 00:36:21.040
this project along with state grants federal grant partnerships. Uh it's really exciting project um especially for Collinswood because we border group river um but especially with last week everyone saw what happens

121
00:36:21.040 --> 00:36:37.680
when we get a torrential amount of rain so quickly uh and especially the county is going to be busting up roads to improve sewer lines. Um there's so many opportunities for partnerships that if they're already going to be repaving that if we can get

122
00:36:37.680 --> 00:36:55.119
in there to do work that we were going to be doing anyways without having to necessarily pay the pavement cost and the the debris and uh we're still in like the planning phase of all of this. Uh but there would be a

123
00:36:55.119 --> 00:37:11.359
huge huge help to our community to the quality of our drinking water uh to the treatment of our su of our sewer water of our black water. Uh, so I encourage residents to ask questions and we're going to try with

124
00:37:11.359 --> 00:37:27.359
the green team to kind of get out some more one pagers and some more Q&As as to how it'll affect you, what you can expect to see, what cons uh yeah >> and that'll be on the November ballot. >> That will be on the November ballot.

125
00:37:27.359 --> 00:37:44.800
Yes. So you're going to see potentially at least one uh one one if not who knows how many. So, make sure you turn your balance over. We will and and hopefully in our October we have a uh we have our forum in October. I'm thinking our forum

126
00:37:44.800 --> 00:38:00.240
in October is probably going to have a FAQ on everything you're going to be see on the back and just explain it all because sometimes it gets very confusing as as to what the different referendums are, if they're local, if they're county, if they're from the schools, and just kind of put all that information on

127
00:38:00.240 --> 00:38:19.640
the table. motion to second. Thank you for coming. Thank you.
