next meeting uh to informally we were supposed to discuss uh concept with the planning board for a proposed fueling facility so uh I mean they don't have an application in front of us it's not that we we have the grant one it's just
making everybody here aware that uh we will not be discussing that for tonight so we can move right on to uh uh 314 Plymouth Street CCO 318 Plymouth Street R&J
[Music] LLC uh three party Plymouth Street Alia and uh again another informal discussion as to where we are and how we are
proceeding my name is lawence Silva silver Engineering Associates yes sir offices at 1615 beit Street Bridgewater and uh I am not the uh the engineer rank before the Starbuck
project I am for the storage facility although I have provided some assistance uh to the St project um as needed uh during that permitting and uh that whole permitting process and so for
uh so the request that you had before us was to um was to provide an update as to how I don't do I need to be here or is is he okay with it me being over here that's fine right there with the mic it's okay so I I gave you a handout because
what you were asking for is uh how how things are proceeding because the starbu project is actually started first where we thought initially that the storage facility was going to be the first project that was going to commence and
then the Starbucks would be coming second but it's actually flipped in the other direction so was not going do so if I can understand you the storage facility is is still a possibility we thought it canel all together we we got no communication from anybody whether it
was postponed or or thrown out or just withdrawn other than the sign that went up so yeah as far as I know as far as uh St Wasco was concerned we were kind of left in the dark okay and then maybe I can
shed some light on that side okay uh and with me tonight is is Rob peek he is here also he's so he's the owner of that project and he can speak to other issues that I don't address or other comments that you might have Robert Krauss is
here Robert CR is as you want to introduce you the attorney for Starbucks side of this correct yes thank you L okay so um so so as you can see in my handout I gave you sort of a I run down
a bunch of bullets as to what I understood that you were looking for this evening and along with that there are some attachments that go along with some of the bullets so the the first uh so the purpose of the meeting is why what I understood was to update the
planning board on the status of the two projects especially since they are dependent on each other for Access utilities and drainage um and then the bullets that I have below that was that as I just stated that the original schedule was to initiate the storage
facility first okay and then that development prior to the start of the Starbucks but it went in the other direction because market conditions had delayed the start of the storage project however the Starbucks and Auto Zone project have stopped okay and it's progressing at this point um a a new
development part uh partner for the storage uh facility is currently being considered and once a transaction is completed work will begin on the storage project site both projects are dependent as you know they were dependent on a drainage easement which allows for water to flow
through the neighboring Alia properties and to the uh to the golf facility when you issued the um um the approval for the storage facility that was spelled out that we had to secure that easement and then
bring it back to you in order for you to basically uh endorse that project at that time that was the first condition of approval so that actually I attach to the here is your actual vote and what the condition of approval show that
easement uh that was took a lot of time to actually uh work through uh to get the the parties uh together uh with an agreement that uh agreement and IES are here this evening Mr peek is here uh but
I can report to you that the that that easement uh has been secured and that it will be uh finalized in the sense there's a a trust certificate that has to be uh put on file and that's going to be recorded at the registy the beginning
of next week so that condition will be met as of the beginning of next week and uh then that prompts us uh to be able to come back with um the plans that you will have as your Rec plans for the for
the storage facility but I do want to point out to you that in the negotiations on that easement through the all of property and I should show you I can put up there is an illustration in there and that's the same illustration that I have
here and just so that it's clear to you these are the two aler properties here following across over to the country club so in order for everything to work on that side a key element was to have the drainage that that's going through
and that's for the drainage for the front Access Road area and for the starucks project will be routed through here to find its way to uh to the country club the actual storage facility drainage
which is in the back here actually drains behind there and it's not dependent on that on that easement okay but that one needed to be in place in order for us to be able to communicate this to you um and and this same and you have this
in your packet um I will be talking about this here this is the uh The Joint uh development agreement which is basically outlining the fact that all this work is jointly got to be done to for the Starbucks project and for the
storage facility and that agreement is also in your packet so um so in that agreement the uh development agreement it it basically puts in place uh obviously a COR sharing
agreement between the two parties and also um sets uh sets the stage for whoever is in in the seat to be going first is able to go forward um and is not hindered by the other project not
startled first um so the agreement itself allows for joint development of shared elements and that that includes the access coming in the lights um you know the adjustment to the lights at the
entranceway um is a water line that has to come in that's going to be serving both projects um the drainage both the drainage for the entrance Road uh and I I can show you at least I have a segment of it on the second sheet I have
here so the drainage excuse me the drainage on the entrance uh portion of it in here uh which gets routed in through a detention Basin here and the Starbuck main drainage goes to a detention area that's in the back and
that gets um an overflow from that is routed through here and follows that same drainage area and gets through the project that way there so that uh agreement was put in place uh so that
both either project whatever one went first the other one still have the ability to make the tie-ins and move forward with their project so that's kind of the overview and I did attach what I thought was some of the more pertinent uh documents uh to
here um that you you can have in review and I'd be happy to answer whatever questions you might have uh regarding uh regarding the agreement of the two to and specifically anything related to storage I can answer it directly I may
be able to answer some of the other questions well my first question uh as far as the storage units go how many buildings are we talking because that's been adjusted once already it was originally I the8 and then it got cut
back to something where are we now with that I mean at this point here the plan has approved the number of building is on it the site that's on it that is what stands if anything were even to be discussed about being changed it would come back to you at that point okay
nothing is nothing is coming back to you at this point so then number two is what happens if the storage facility does not go through you're in negotiations uh everything looks good but uh I is it is it your idea then
until you confirm something with a storage uh unit project the storage project that you're going to hold up uh Costco and and uh no absolutely not but what I what I just was explaining to you was so how how was that going to get
paid for then I gu well that's that's that's between the two parties and they have that all worked out it's in esro like my half is in escro St pays that out yeah so I've already put in is it's in here uh I'm sorry could you just give
us a name please you got to go I know Rob um I've already put my money up for my half of the joint development agreement with regards to the storage sorry the storm water disposal and what we have to
do at the street with water so that's the access road and the adjustment of the yeah installing the and installing all the necessary pipes from that that comes through that part of the property and connects to the eventually end St in the golf course right so with the
storage not to be redundant but the storage project goes through and they just have to tie in and they're good to go yeah and as far as ex drainage given given the progress of the Starbucks or property whatever is there and where we stand in terms of the storage and our
ability to find a new partner the storm water removal Disposal system will be installed before anything so so more than likely at this point the way it's been talked about is that Starbucks contract will be doing the work that
relates to what I've shown there is highlighted okay and then once the storage project starts that contractor will pick up from there and continue with the the main part of the storage area uh there's a little segment of that
connecting road that would be completed and uh the drainage that goes out the back of the storage facility out to another section of the golf course would be completed at that time but all the storm water removal work that needs to be done in order for the Starbucks is going to be done in the
right whatever the sequence is without any regards to what I'm they're building that regardless of the story okay and that's and they'll build that in you know whatever sequence it needs to be done let me just ask this Mr K is that is that your impression also is
is Mr K yes Mr chairman there's been no change inance and this this agement that was presented to you tonight for fact what was required based upon what Larry and Robert saying to you yes but there's no change in what
we're doing we haven't simulated any changes and we're we want to continue and and perfect what we receive permits to do and there's no delay as far as uh Starbucks AutoZone is waiting for
anything else to happen no no Mr chairman as Rob indicated is the joint development agreement this money has been paid in and we're moving forward please and the and the last item that was needed was
the completion of the the easement agreement with the alers and as U I should point out is that within that agreement that portion of the drainage that goes through the Alis property needs to be completed by the end of
August of this year it's state Serv it's St of wall and pipes yep so uh all the safeguards that were necessary between the two two developers those were taken care of in that agreement and with the eement agreement
with the allers the timing and the assurances that that work was going to be done that is all taken care of in that Eastman agreement okay I'm going to open up questions from the board you have your hand up you can go first just for clarity a couple of things um has
the agreement been executed or are you waiting to execute no that's in your packet okay all right just it's been executed but not recorded right no no you talking about the easement with the alers yeah the easement with the AL there was an issue with the what the certificate of the the
trust certif yeah it would have been after already Tom Al at 340 P Street so the easan has been uh executed we just need to uh sign off on an a trust agreement a trust but you all you worked it all out but we've worked it all out
uh my question is is the uh the 125,000 that's uh been put aside here uh is that does that go towards the 340 pist stre easement no that's I'm doing that separate separate okay so Al then
the 125 figure that's for theint Access Road the uh the easement for the in the adjustment to the lights it's all in this this whole thing right here yeah um we're digging well we we we're digging the trench or and putting two
18in pipes we put one the RJ puts one 18in pipe uh C leers puts the other 18 type of pipe you put in 18in corrugated to whatever the standard is that was listed
in the answer is expensive pip okay yes go ahead just following up the the drainage plan through the alga's property is that different from what we originally no no so it's the same the same no but because you had a condition in your approval go got to make sure that you
hav a sign off on that easement that's what taken a little bit more time to get that uh going in so but it's done in terms of the road itself the access road assuming that um the storage facility is not going to go first right
is that going to go just just past the entrance that goes off into the Starbucks area right the rest of it will be rough graded out because it needs to be rough graded out I assumed I just wanted to hear it and whatever and the utility pipes the drainage pipes that have to feed back to that detention
that's all going to be installed that's all that needs to be installed and that also then takes in the drain pipe that comes across uh next to O'Reilly's that comes in and TI in that as well does can I ask our Town's engineer does that affect the fact that that Road isn't
going incomplete does that affect any of the dra no okay thanks P you good yeah anybody else have any more questions yeah I I have a question so um I would like to have um the 340
blistry easement tied into the Starbucks plan itself so that just gives one more guarantee that the easement will be completed so in the unforeseeable event that something tragic happens and you go
bankrupt let's say that this won't be a situation where um GE there's no money to do it uh so if it's tied in with the Starbucks project and if it becomes part of their plan then it it becomes more of a a Musto for
Starbucks look to Legal I would say the same thing I I would uh venture to ask our legal uh Town Council if if in fact that would be a would that be a private issue you know between uh uh you know two private
parties as opposed to linking it to Starbucks or somebody else for that matter I can also work like give them security like a bond yeah I can do something that in the event the unforeseen does happen we'll find some
that there'll be something there to do it anyway again we plan on doing this as soon as the ground yeah and the timeline for this is really talking just a few months that their work has to be completed anyway talking the end of AUST
that this is the I don't think there's any need as I understand Mr rer you been paid for the easement the easement is going to be recorded we of course for to fulfill it because it's part of our it's part of
the obligation to fulfill the completion of the Starbucks Pro they won't be able project and also uh Mr Brennan is here as well so um they wouldn't Starbucks would not receive an occupancy permit in the event that the easement is not
completed they won't even be close to that by end of August yeah um yes that that was my recommendation to the board they had asked me questions about this um but from what I'm hearing from these two gentlemen
the the work including the piping through your property is to be done by August or by the end of August wall yeah so that that would take care of that that's that's the work that needs to be done right before but my point is in the event that it does not get done you will
not sign off on the occupancy for sto I don't sign off on it but you wouldn't recommend correct I would not recommend it correct yeah I believe we do have a letter in in the file from our billing
inspector who said uh absolutely that the occupancy uh that although they have conformed to the conditions for their building permit there would not be an occupancy uh permit issued
until this is all okay good I believe I could find it I can put my hand on and we're not going to sign off on it either and when is the road going to be like the common driveway and the parking for Star
Starbucks that's so is there you're participating in that as well whether or not the storage facility goes in it's that comes out of a joint development agreement which I which is funded by in escro do we have a copy of that at the Halifax Town Hall it's it's in your packet okay I know there's a lot of
reading now that just got so I'm trying to catch up so okay Mr Cross attorney cross can you tell me what what you have at plan for the common driveway and the lights I yes for you Mr chairman it's
the plans nothing of the plans have changed it's exactly as provided to you and permit nothing has changed in our Point as that that was it was stated in documents here that the storage facility
common driveway would be installed prior to too so it's a very valid question to make sure that the town is I'm not suggesting it's not a valid question we're going to the road M indicated $125,000 to the Joint development we're
going to construct Road a condition of the of the C get the oer we're we're going to do it exactly as the plans and our traffic engineered design and which you guys approve it
there's no change there just there's no change this is the uh these are these are the this is a set of plans from Bowman Bowman is the U the traffic consultant hired by CCO to on behalf of
the joint uh development to take care of the signalization changes and all that work that's that's what these represent and that's what's being done in order to meet the requirements uh and been coordinated with the town departments as
far as having it uh you know having it be something they can start work on you involved in this one or not not that but I'd also note that without that road being constructed up to the Starbucks driveway the only way to get
in and out of that site is going eastbound because it's a right in right out only from their own entrance so you can't they wouldn't be able to be in business would able to I understand but on the plan did you see that there's a curve both
ways and a little island in between it there yeah there's a that was requested by the highway surveyor to put that island in the middle of the Triangular Island to kind of channelize the cars in the correct direction west from the you could if you
really wanted to but it's it's channelizing your be pretty it was one of the conditions though that we were only supposed to leave East so that like makes it a little bit confusing kind of like we were talking about earlier with the other projects that's not coming
tonight they can only go off of 58 CS to the right nobody can take a left end and that there's no little island in the middle of it yeah that that one's probably more inviting to take a look but this with that Island you'd have to make a dramatic turn to try to get in
there you have left room you'd have to go whale in a around come back in So foror to ask Auto Zone and Starbucks you have to take a left at the light and go in through the light if you're leaving you have to take a left through the light yes yeah if
you're going west or you can go right there too but but nobody can enter off of 106 onto the frontage of Starbucks property if you're going correct yes correct you can't at all well go eastbound you can you can turn East
eastbound you can westbound you can right right going toward 58 you can leaving I no no coming in also cuz it's a right in right out all right well I was under the impression maybe I remember it incorrectly but I thought it was only an
exit East no it was always right in right that's why we put the island do you remember it always being that you could only leave there's nothing why we have I don't know we talked about a lot of a lot of stuff
with this project so I do remember there being obviously there there being a conversation mandating that the flow of traffic had to go in a certain direction but that's I think where I would default to Pat brandan go to on
[Music] that it was always and also I mean in In fairness all you can really do is guide the traffic in the direction that it's supposed to go like we've all seen those like do not urn I'm like you bet your ass are
turning around right now you know I mean so thank yeah I remember it was and that you couldn't go in there but what why would you do that you come here because the parking lot flow
was only so that you could go I think it's probably if you go to the auto you could go to the auto park store directly without having a circum that was the thrust but we didn't want to have that exit where you would exit and go left that's where it
was thanks it's not a main entrance I was Mr Sure uh Rob R&J has in fact uh I think I heard Rob's mentioned earlier they have deposited their portion of the road work
money so you guys are satisfied that that is there and available to your client $125,000 is sitting on my I okay all right just just confirming with you that your clients all squit away with that
yep we have 125,000 on the The Joint development agreement that you have in hand right okay just confirming no no problem yeah and you also from CCO have money um in in in an i account to uh do the road
work as well I don't typically my my client accounts for their portion of it but they prepared to discussion this discussion is facilitated by some questions you have
we're prepared we have the resources to move forward no question about it it's just based on the joint develop agreement that the money was coming from Mr pack and his entities and his brother so that's why I'm
holding you can read because it's all based on the joint development agreement there's nothing suspect or or strange about it's very typical and when it BS down to is with without it being done the way the plans have been approved uh there's no
occupancy happening anyone here nobody's going to invest that kind of money without having an end game that get you the way you want effectively and they talk to each other all the time the Nathan Palmer U and and Rob they talk together all the time to make sure they
get through any kind of things that come up REM any questions no sir Rick how about you no nothing uh I'll you have anything else I'm Sor no uh Mr hux uh
any uh inut on uh from as far as uh Town Council and Town's uh duties involving the and the agreements that were presented um no I mean I think the the very important statement by U Mr kuss is
that there there aren't any changes in the plan it's what you guys approved B that is correct thank you counil you can for the record so that people don't feel as though they have been inconvenience by being asked to be here this evening
um big project with a lot of lot of eyes in a small town and when we have the storage facility going in with the road and the easements and all that and then all of a sudden the storage facility is temporarily on hold for for whatever reason which is fine but then the
Starbucks comes in of course they are going to be questions as in regards to although the plans haven't changed the order in which we discussed it for months and even years at a time so I think it just makes sense that we were able to have this conversation to make
all parties involved um more relaxed about welcoming these two projects into our town so just wanted that on the record to say you know we weren't just trying to drag people here to you know inconvenience anyone it's more of a there was a plan the plan changed maybe
not paper but in order of and so therefore we would like an explanation and question got raised lot questions got answered I the eyes have been dotted the te's have been crossed in fness I I think that um it should have been maybe
presented to you to tell you that the sequence was going to go the other way because everything that had been presented to you initially was the thought process that the storage was going first and Starbucks and so there was no thought about it necessarily except for that agreement that said you we got to put this in place anyway yeah
and um the fact that it went in the other direction uh it would have been probably in hindsight would have been good to come before you and just tell you that the order had changed yeah and and I think sorry but but at the end of the day I mean it's who cares it's it's good we got this done I think one of my
concerns was more and not not to point any fingers obviously or make any accusations but we have a a small town project with a conglomerate and and if the small town project for whatever reason fell apart the conglomerate has the amount of money to be able to just
move forward with it and then if just this meeting just dotted the eyes and crossed the teas I for at least for me I don't want to speak on behalf of the board but that is why I think this was a productive conversation so thank you to everybody we just want to Clarity and
confirmation that the easement agreement had been worked out too which was left up in the air which is just getting to Monday you know so but it does state in all these letters that all of the infrastructure for the common driveway the parking and all the uh underground
uh drainage easements and all that were going to be done prior to Starbuck so we have to safeguard for the town absolutely no I I totally understand I would have done the same if I was on side the table cool all right awesome awes
anybody any other questions thanks you good just talk motion to adjourn no just sorry did everybody sign this yeah get this all sign thank you Mr chairman M thank you thank you thanks Rich thanks
Rich appreciate [Music] it all right good night we no oh minutes we have some minutes let's do that and get do we have thank you thank you very
much have a good night take care yeah just let us know if something changes so that it won't so it won't freak us out the worse it's worse for me no it do no offense that guy's
not likeing from this well that's why that's why we're also trying to protect like he just said it would have made more sense if they came in here first said hey look the order has changed here we're going to do this first that's all would then there would
have be any questions what's going on or anything you know everybody knows my hair is going go up the way the way they the way they did it how can they expect us not to uh question F this is more on me is like I you know I thought I would have been
thrown up walls at this yeah yeah right yeah it's really your plan Chang not theirs probably should have said it though but in the same breath if the storage facilities any type of substantial changes or whatever more buildings less buildings it does have to
come yes you look at it like I don't change toilet paper of the golf course come well I I'll leave my brother on the other hand that's why I
yeah yeah we are recording right it was it was more of just you know you have a successful Staple in town which is you know alax Country Club and but compare that to a publicly traded Fortune 500 company we're
going they can push some stuff through and if it's not all on writing their lawyers are a hell of a lot more expensive than ours are and it was just cross and teas dots and eyes make yeah I'm sure you are have a nice night Robbie thank you take you mother
to Connecticut bye I'll BR her back too just enjoy the ride to Connecticut thank you brought back up with you bye G uh all right uh the next thing on our agenda we had uh the minutes given to us
on you know for the February 6th and the February 20th 2025 anybody have any changes deletions or well I would just I would just like to say on the February 6 minutes if some some of it's going to be a word for word and some of it not that's that's um you
know some of these some of these uh I have no problem with it all being written out but there are on page four there's some that's just paraphrasing and so if it's going to be quoting people then it shouldn't go to
paraphrasing on somebody and then quoting on others and then people saying how things are said in other statements and giving um like a storyline like they're being a playwright more if they're going to do a quote I have no
problem with that but no paraphrasing some of it so I would like it to be Rewritten um that it on the ones that are paraphrased and um anything that would add any personality to somebody
else's quotes be taken out well I'm the opinion that uh that's what minutes are minutes are just minutes they're not a right if they're not a a Verbatim they're they're not a uh you know a word for word document
that dos exactly uh what it is minutes right so usually we don't have directly word for word am I those are quotes right yes they're quotes um some of it is except for on page four at the bottom three from the bottom melus explains the
process of getting a number signed to a parcel that's not spelled out but it looks like everything else is and so I find that to be um like if you're going to do one thing and then also um other parts where troop starts talking about something or like if we're going to go
with all quoting then we shouldn't be going on some of it and trying to put personality in it so you see this is not usually how this is just this is a paraphrase TR troop starts talking about something irrelevant gain or ass or not to jump
around what what what what did I say and that because that is paraphrasing while we're talking about quotes so everything's quoted but then all of a sudden there's a description you know what I mean it's either that we have all
quotes this isn't a play we're not selling this to Hollywood but usually we don't do these minutes have we been doing the minutes with all these quotings and then all of a sudden it's here back and forth um where there's
it's it's a couple of different kinds of uh writing you're you're quoting in one section and then in another you're paraphrasing and and you're giving description on how you say somebody else is talking that's that's not that's not
okay and so whatever it you know like if you're going to do your your vote and get at all whatever I don't I don't care I have zero problem with what I say I I believe in this whole meeting I was trying to stick up for the fact that we had something insanely going on in my
opinion where we didn't know the order of all this I mean we just this just took place so we didn't know all of this and I'm a defender of the people as we all know and I get very passionate about it so if we're going to do minutes that are all quoting I have no problem with
that but there's not to be some quoting and then some paraphrasing by the secretary or whomever wrote it right well my opinion is minutes are the minutes and and they're just just that
they're not a verbatum quote if can I finish please can I please finish why are they can I please finish so bottom line if you wanted to know what the exact quote what was the exact said as you say at the beginning
of every meeting if one is videotaped MH so you could go back and read the whole thing word for word v verbatim verbatim right right down the very line but for minutes to give a rough idea to give a what where the discussion went in what
direction it's not meant to be a a word for word account of every meaning that's that's what the videoos for unless some some phrases in terms of quotes are important because of exactly what they is said other things not so much I I I
don't find a lot of inconsistency in that but well there's 10 pages and we haven't usually been doing this lately it's been over a year and a half since any of this has happened can I jump in since I'm the
one that wrote them sure go ahead thank you um so I was instructed to directly quote everything from the 314 project because of is such a Hot Topic and by who you know we wanted to make sure that
everything was documented in case we have to go back and look then we know exactly what it said and we're not trying to hunt through these recordings on area 58 okay who told you to do that the man who signs my paychecks
who's that Ed Bailey Ed Bailey correct the you actually work for us though you actually work for us I'm going to speak now I'm speaking
okay you can look at look at anybody you want Amy but you're you're talking over and I'm just trying to explain because I'm the I'm the one that wrote it I think I think what I'm hearing is that we either need to pick subjective
or objective writing and if something needs to be quoted it should be said and I quote or I would like to quote for the record other than that it should just be transcribed from the little recorders and avoid all this moving forward I mean
but also this was a Hot Topic button so if somebody wants every detailed sentence in there then be it so so that being said some of it that's only paraphrasing if it's supposed to all be quoted it should all be quoted
okay because yeah so that so I would ask that anything that's not quoted and just paraphrased go to the quotes because it's not the I mean like honestly Danielle you have issue with me
and you've had issue with me and to the point that you're telling me that I will not be coming into your office tomorrow I'm not going to we're not going to do this right now I know you love a good show but we're not going to do this on the camera Amy so if you want to talk to me you can call me on Monday morning and
we'll talk about it this has nothing to do with me having an issue with you there is no formula for how these minutes need to be done it is at my discretion I am the administrative assistant I'm the one that writes these minutes and transcribes these minutes and we're the one who votes cuz it's our
our minutes anyway it sounds like you're the only one that has a problem with them wow again you will not be coming into my office tomorrow says Danielle if not not your office you work for the planning board and I have respect for
that but you also have to have respect for a planning board member it is also my office where I can actually look through files and the reason that I'm putting it on TV is because they need to know what's going on in town because
this is disrespect and it's not correct CH yes well we can talk about that all you want on Monday Amy that's fine here's one of the problems with all of this you either do verbatim everything or someone's
going to have to make a decision as to what should be quoted and what shouldn't be quoted but I don't think we want to do verbatim anything CU cuz that will just go on right I was surprised when I saw this I understand the reasoning but when some
people have just you know um a surmise of what was said and it's not quoted I find it to be a little bit offsetting well I mean just speaking for myself that one quote that you brought up that milus
told us how to yeah and I wasn't picking no no I understand but I don't care that it didn't get quoted is what I'm getting at CU that would have been Superfluous to the whole thing but that's a problem when you're taking minutes someone has to decide what I need to put in there how explicit I need to be with it you
know it's one of the hardest things to do is minutes I would hate to do minutes for anything for sure but again we don't we we don't need to have um things that are like for instance troop st's talking about something irrelevant what did I say that
doesn't that's not that that needs to be quoted so who decided it was irrelevant so well if you're asking for a I'm sorry I didn't mean to interrupt you it's okay it happens in a conversation it's not meant to be uh if
what am I trying to say I'm trying to say that if you're looking for a correction I don't have a problem with that okay for for you know a specific thing I I don't know what you said I don't remember what you said but if there's other things there that are conflicting we could ask for you know
for a correction okay uh you know as as opposed to getting to into the weeds with this thing yeah I'm not trying to get into the weeds my point is like I was surprised cuz but but I understand why that would be but if everything's going to be quoted that we only do
quotes and we can't add personality to it based on what what I'm getting what I was getting at is if there's particular things that you think need to be expanded on then we you know we can bring those up as opposed to doing everything I know
what will solve this entire problem and in the corporate world at least we are now using a thing called Dragon AI where we plug it in as soon as the first person starts to speak and they literally transcribe the entire conversation well like we have on the screen right now that's what I mean
right and so at the end of the day when in an LLC or in a corporation where you have to show the minutes from the meeting to provide to the IRS in case you get audited we tow that so that I don't have to pay one of my but that's that's not minutes that's a transcription of what we say what else
are we going to do sit here I should be tucking my kids into bed right now instead instead we're sitting here arguing and I'm going to be very careful the words coming out of my mouth because this seems like a very ridiculous conversation to continue to have so I would like to act um in a manner of
saying if we need to make a correction let's make a correction and let's or or not but let's move on from this conversation because there are far more important things to discuss or to complete this evening personally I agree so I just would like to move for the
corrections does that mean to be seconded I don't uh just ask for it and then we'll take it up at the next meeting yeah Co so we'll address these at the next meeting yes okay and and if you could make specif only the
wallet all right seeing that uh next schedule meeting is for the planning board is March 20th 2025 I will accept a motion to adjourn second Motion in a second all those in
favor say I I it's unanimous than [Music]
