one on Zoom so we do have a do have a quorum um and with that if we can stand for the Pledge of Allegiance Pledge of Allegiance to the flag the United States of America to the
Republic for which it stands one nation under all right so I apologize for my voice tonight um I was sick a couple weeks ago and still have not recovered my voice um those that have talked to me over the last couple weeks um can probably say
it's gotten a little bit better but um I I am a little broken so uh by way of announcements I do want to announce that um there are four candidates that have put their names forward for finance committee we have
two open seats there's a finance committee selection committee meeting um on February 18th uh so hopefully we will um emerge from that with it with uh two new members hopefully they can get sworn
in on Wednesday and then they can uh be here for our next meeting on February 20th um I will not be at the next meeting so um we'll have to Jean will will run that one um also like to welcome uh Jen
Warren Diamond to the to the um to the team here um I think she's getting a little baptism by fire for sure um and we will hear from her a little later today um we have preliminary Budget on
it on the agenda where um that will be changed a little bit more towards a extremely preliminary budget maybe um but Jen will talk about where we stand as as of today um any other
announcements okay um is there any public comment from the board no Jean just raise your hand if you have one um I guess just just for me to kick off
you know we are now officially in in budget season um all eight uh currently planned budget um hearings and and and other related actions are the agendas were all posted
online so give it a sense you know for folks who might be interested in certain departments briefings and um and other things we will have to make a slight adjustment to it um for the the preliminary budget um but we'll talk about that during the during the
meeting um is there any public comment from the public and if anyone has it just raise their hands all right uh next thing on our agenda would be Town manager and finance director
reports if you have anything okay great so you were cruising this going to be a short budget season um the next item on the agenda was was added um which is the update um and it's a reserve account transfer
request by the school department for um their enhanced 911 cabling costs um so uh Dr Gilson I can maybe turn it over to you or eie or um Dr Burnham for the for
the request just go over the request would you like to me to speak to the request Chris um sure or if that's what you'd like or Dr bernham would be fine that's fine you have uh a few documents you have a a memo from the interim Town
manager uh supporting this request you have a memo from Dr gillson that summarizes the expense um and we're we're here to give you that quick overview I'll turn it over to Dr Gilson and we can answer any questions you might have okay so I did
put that um Carter's in the um the SharePoint and then I emailed um Dr Gilson's email to you all I think I saw that email I didn't see whatever came from Carter all right so why don't we work
off the um so Carter basically says he's supportive of the um of the request and then I think um the one um from Dr Gilson goes into a little bit more detail so why don't we let you just summarize the the
San points on it sure the 911 cabling project was uh extremely important um it complies with um Ray bombs act and car's law and um compliance with local uh state and f Federal Regulations are
important um local dispatch um has repeatedly contacted the superintendent and it manager requesting for phone systems to be brought into compliance and districts not in compliance are potentially liable for fines of up to
10,000 plus 500 a a day for non-compliance so we really needed to pursue this project it was unbudgeted the um total cost of uh the project is uh $ 65,535 and if you would we would really
appreciate the transfer request um to help us out with this cost a little bit of additional clarification the project was budgeted um but when the technicians came in to start the project uh the initial plan
was to utilize the cabling to the PA boxes in each of the classrooms because there were not phones in each of those classrooms but when they got in there to do the work they then determined that the the existing cabling was not
adequate and therefore the entire building needed to be recabled to have drops in every single classroom uh for the connection so the additional 60 some, thousand was not part of the original quote that we
got and not included in our budget to do this compliance upgrade this year okay are there any questions from the board yeah um when you found out you needed the additional work was because
obviously that was beyond the scope of the original job was the job requoted we got a quote from the company that gave us the original quote in the first place uh their quote was 106,000 uh so we went to State bid list
and and got an additional quote that came in at the cost here um it was early early in our budget year and I where it was a compliance issue we moveed forward with it but as the year has progressed
there have been additional unanticipated unbudgeted costs that have come up uh we've had multiple conversations with the interim Town manager about some of these items that have come up as he's indicated in the memo we took a look at um the potential for Opa funding but
because the project had been completed he deemed that it wasn't really an Opa eligible expense we looked at um you know any potential other savings um through other means but um
then we discussed this option uh which he supported so was a new purchase order issued for the additional work I'll turn that over to um Dr Gilson I don't know that we put in an additional recer if we
asked for the the existing rck po to be increased maybe uh might might have that information as well um typically without the funding allocated the requisition wouldn't be increased so this is the first step
before we increase the original requisition so that's that's where we're at but the work has been completed yes so where did you intend to get the funding originally again it was early in our
budget year and we had anticipated that we might be able to absorb this additional cost in our operating budget uh which was already pretty tight with all of our expense lines when we brought our budget in last year even though it was an override for our budget um the
original request that came in for expense lines in all of our school-based and department-based budgets came in extremely lean because we knew that we were facing Cuts uh and we were hoping to save as many personnel as possible so
we don't have a lot of wiggle room in the budget um again it was early in our budget year and we had an eye on trying to uh carve out some savings here and there throughout the budget year but we've
continued to have unexpected unbudgeted cost throughout the year and we've gotten to the point where it's going to become a significant challenge for us to uh manage all of the additional unbudgeted costs along with this project
uh and again in conversations with the interim Town manager looking at possible options um we discussed this as an option and again it was something that he endorsed so we're looking to go towards the the
annual town meeting to request the additional funding $50,000 no I'll be looking for a reserve no no the the the reserve account is funded at the previous annual town meeting for fy2 and allocated for the finance committee as
these requests come through so the request is coming from the school department to the finance committee to release the funds and make them avail ailable and I think the budget was $200,000 for this year is that right I believe so yes and the res and uh 15 has
been previously released for the town manager search mhm and this is an additional request and I would anticipate more coming down the pike as we get closer to the end of the year um the budgets are just very tight this year um inflation and you know salaries
um contract negotiations everything has been skyrocketing there's a trend going forward so I anticipate you know as the meetings go on throughout the fiscal year you might get additional requests from several departments so how much will this leave
in the reserve fund uh right now oop right now this 185 so the request is 50 50,000 65574 65 so you'll leave about 120 give
it to for the rest of the year correct okay any other questions no Jean did you have any questions no thanks right um you know Carter had
supported this request he his his note um was that uh you know they did look for all sorts of ways as were previously talked about to um to backfill this I do think it's a 911 emergency system it's
an pretty important thing to to get done um so I would I would personally support the you know the reserve fund um transfer um I I think having this Reserve fund is is probably pretty good for us as a as a practice um at the
level we have it at at this year in the past years would be like 50,000 or something like that so um if there are no um additional I would let me maybe stage it this
way I would recommend that we I would entertain a motion to recommend transferring $583 120 from the reserve fund to the school department cont contracted services and
$725 4.65 from the reserve fund to the school department computers purchase and Lease line items anyone like you want to make the motion I make the motion okay do I have a second
second okay um and we'll do a roll call vote so Jean i t I Jay I and an i for myself so it passes thank you all very very much thank you hopefully you don't need to use it thank
you did did you receive the form to sign and approve if not I could send it after we have this vote as a record and I'll sign a doc send a docu sign for the members to sign so we have a written record as well okay all right we can what do you want to do sign it next week
or I'll send it um yeah next week okay unless you can print it now I guess I could run downstairs I'll be all right the next item on our agenda is um preliminary budget
um so I had spoken with Jen beforehand um I think she's going to give us a status of where we are and um how we kind of work through this over the next couple weeks well thank you Mr chairman through you to the committee my name is Jennifer Warren diamond and I am your
new town manager I've been here about one week in a few days um so I want to just talk a little bit tonight about why I am not providing a budget presentation so um as the committee is aware um work has been ongoing on this
budget from the early fall through the capital process uh transitioning into December January for the regular budget process the interim Town manager advis department heads committees commissions and Boards of what our financial
situation Outlook looked like and um advise departments to be as conservative as possible and only Rec uh requesting necessary increases um the interim Town manager has met with uh the vast majority of um the department heads and
board's committees and commissions about their expenditure requests um unfortunately before his departure not all of that was able to be reduced to writing so um so I I began last week uh with the intent to provide some information uh to
the committee tonight but to further explain uh why we will not be doing that um when you prepare a budget you begin with your Revenue estimates and in reviewing uh the revenue estimates um there was um a mathematical error in
them and also um the total um the two and a half Allowed by proposition 2 and A2 was applied not to the full um Levy from last year it did not include the override amount so it left us a little shy so the good news in that is that we
have a little bit more revenues than we thought in addition um the calculation of local receipts um you know our inspections our building permits um all the things that go into local receipts um the way that that calculation was done was based on an average um I know
Mr aala um had previously um I believe to both this committee and the budget task force that he really wanted to look at those local receipts this year and see if we could be a little less conservative um because that we were trending very high in those areas so I
would like the opportunity to uh do a higher uh or a deeper dive into the drivers behind uh local receipts and see which if any we can be a little less conservative on of course conservative conservative budgeting is the best practice um but we need to ensure also
that we are not um starving our operational funds um by being overly conservative so I'd just like the time to do a little more analysis on the revenues uh in addition I understand that the capital planning committee has met um with um all all proponents of
projects throughout the fall and have um established a general priority of projects um there are a few projects that have appeared on the capital list that have not been fully vetted I believe uh for by the capital planning committee uh in addition uh funding of
the capital plan uh relied upon uh a set of financial policies that has not been approved yet by the town it's a draft at this at this time so it has not been fully um fully vetted by this board select board ultimately adopting it so
um the the funding mechanism for the capital plan actually utilizes uh the tax levi in addition to one-time funds uh so we know that we need as much of that Levy um offsetting our operations and and not in one time funds as
possible this year uh lastly uh while significant work was done on the expenditure side of the budget um there were a lot of plans that were in place about consolidating different areas uh realigning some areas and I have not had
the opportunity to fully vet that out so um I in in making uh the way to this evening I was endeavoring to be able to provide some information and I realized that today um I was I was just not going to be able to make that Mark tonight and
I I my I know that there are a lot of eyes on this budget this is going to be a very difficult budget year we're going to have a lot of conversations and a lot of collaboration and in doing so accuracy is Paramount and so I want to be sure
that what we are presenting is at the time and I just don't have that confidence at this moment so I am hopeful with a couple of more weeks uh the team and I can have something um better better to present to you I do want to thank all of those involved um
the interim Town manager boards committee's commissions department heads and uh most importantly the finance director Ezekiel aala um he's been working incredibly diligently um to get to this point um and with that I will entertain any questions to the extent
that I may be able to write an answer is there saying two weeks I'm hopeful that on the 27th we'll have the full budget presentation okay any questions J not right now
okay um Jean any questions no okay um and Jen and I have been talking throughout the week so um I I don't have any other questions and I do think that um you know the additional
time would would serve us well um we have the opportunity um to hear over the next couple weeks from um the the town departments um in their requests um which have already been given the you
know the direction to be uh fairly conservative this year um and then on the heels of the 27th if that's when we can have the preliminary budget um you know the next week is the schools so I you know have full faith
that you are working closely with school of Finance director and and with with um Dr Burnham to you know to collaborate on both sides of it yes okay uh any questions uh on the capital in the process or anything else
Rel to it okay okay we'll we'll also do that yeah well I'm just saying with what she had mentioned during her discussion yeah all right so the first Department
out of the shoot this year is the IT department so all right um hi uh my name is uh Casey Chisum thank you for uh being here tonight to look over the FY 26 it budget um if
anyone has any questions throughout the presentation please feel free to um to ask as as you see fit um on the um second slide um as always I like to introduce the team that is supporting um the town of lunenberg um so we have
myself uh Walt is the it lead uh Mason green is the help Des technician he's the person on site who most people see on a regular basis uh Cara McCarthy is the it admin assistant also person who people see and are used to on a regular basis and then Su it uh shared services
the people in the background that people don't see as often um they kind of keep things going Network and security team Virtual Office the project manager and the procurement specialist um on the next slide just uh going over some uh initiatives that we
completed so far in 2025 um we just this past week completed the uh Public Safety phone upgrade um to the VoIP phone system that matches the rest of the town and also makes them e91 compliant um with the uh Federal Regulations um and
it added uh some much needed features onto that system um like prior they didn't have caller ID on their phones simple things that now they do um next we have computer upgrades uh that's going to be something that's continuously on here um now that we have
a replacement cycle in place uh we continuously upgrade computers as needed um instead of an emergency things get replaced um ahead of time uh increase roles and responsibilities for the admin assistant so uh the hours um that Cara
was receiving did increase that was something that um the previous Town manager was advocating for and did happen uh this fiscal year uh on the next slide uh we have the next two initiatives that are have completed and working on um we did a townwide cell
phone replacement um at a cost savings they uh replaced all of the cell phones the majority of the tablets to um the T-Mobile s uh T-Mobile devices um the big thing here was again along with the cost Savings of that we were able to
deploy a mobile device management uh system which we didn't have previously um so all of the cell phones there was not really a proper inventory or any security around them and now we have that deployed in our cell phone so when there is turnover it's an easy wipe of
the phone and give back out to the next um staff member where it is before if we didn't have contact with the previous employee and they had their personal iCloud on there the phone is essentially bricked um so now we have more capabilities um with that uh mobile device
management uh the next item on here is the library camera upgrade this is not yet completed but it is scheduled um for the end of this month everything is purchased and uh waiting for uh installation this is right now the
library does have um two camera systems and this is going to be um replacing the older side of their camera system and uh increasing the the security features that is currently there that the department head is is looking to uh
increase and it also aligns with the current system that the public safety um building has which again the larger initiative to just start um aligning all of the it infrastructure throughout the town this aligns with that as well um so on the next slide before we
look into FY 26 I mean we're we're hitting a period in the town where we're um we're hitting like a maintenance almost we've in the past four years we've done a lot of upgrades and a lot of projects we did a email migration a document migration Network upgrade inter
upgrade so we're hitting which is all great it just means now we're hitting a a maintain of the Town um so there's not anything drastic on here of of projects in that way um software maintenance we're going to continue to see obviously contractual increases in inflation with software there is going to be an
increase um to the munus contract um we are moving into a cloud uh based system with that software um so that is going to be an increase on that um that line um Hardware maintenance again that's going to continue to be in that budget
as a as a maintenance and a device replacement um for a regular cycle there um town clerk software this is more of a wish list item it's not necessarily uh set in stone yet it's going to take some collaboration between our department the
town manager and the town clerk uh right now that system for like vital records and um dog licensing is on an old access database and um we just would like to see that move M into a more efficient um platform and a cloud hosted but again wishless item it's not necessarily set
in stone there's some collaboration that needs to happen still um and then the last item on this list would be the internet speed for the DPW DPW the current speeds um are not sufficient for what the department is using um at the time of putting this
together uh to today I actually did get the cost of that and it's going to be roughly $1,000 more per year to increase them from a 50 meg uh connection to a 500 Meg connection so I think that's a no-brainer um to increase that so I will
be advocating to uh increase those speeds for them because it's going to create a lot of efficiencies um for a very small cost um so that number isn't yet in the in the budget yet because I just got it uh this morning but we will be I will be requesting that in the FY
26 budget um and that's that's all I have for FY 26 uh changes or requests um outside of the typical maintaining
budget last the last slide is just questions all right any questions from the board how often are the is the IT staff you know on on site uh Mason is
here every day he's here 5 days a week um carara I she her hours just got increased to 25 so she's here for 25 hours a week I don't know how she manages that schedule I believe Mondays and Thursdays right now but I I'm not sure exactly the hours um uh Walt is
Walt is here or myself is here myself um once every two weeks or so um but Mason is that that on-site technician that when you know the help desk someone sends a ticket into the help desk he's that person who's going to to um resolve that so right now it's 5 days a
week and you guys are just taking care of the Town side yes and how we how are all the town buildings connected for internet um they all have their own fiber connection or not necessarily fiber they all have their
own internet connection and then um there are vpns back to um there are connections back to uh the town hall for munus so so was it fiber Network to each building uh not every building has a fiber Network um that was
a um this building Public Safety um and Ritter all have fiber connections the other building and the library does but um the library has a contractor called CW Mars that manages their Network um so they manage that side of it the DPW and the council and
aging um have a coax connection um we did solicit some quotes two or three years ago from Comcast um to see what it would cost to get fiber in those in those locations um I did just look
back at that this week um just for the DPW the construction cost alone would be 29,000 just to get fiber into that building um so we're going to look at just increasing their speeds on their coax side right now and see how that improves it um before we go down the
line of having some big construction cost of putting fiber into the building so we don't the town doesn't own any of the fiber correct network no the town does not own any of the fiber it's all Comcast fiber so have we looked at what we're paying in fees to
Comcast annually versus owning our own fiber network over time we haven't done like a specific cost analysis on it um but it is something that we can dive into further there are um through the community compact Grant there are Grant um funding options um for like dark
fiber or um town-owned fiber that we could um look into um and do a more cost analysis of of the the differences between those two yeah I think that's something would be worth looking at for
a long term upgrade our infrastructure and do we look at how much um you know like how many copy machines and printers and stuff we have or building and centralizing
networking yes a few years ago when we first came on that was something that we worked with the previous Town manager on um The copier lease right now um is the amount of copers in the building is is pretty sufficient I wouldn't recommend
reducing that down um any further than it currently is for the buildings um um the the printers is always up in like the desktop printers that's always a question up in the air of um cost savings with printers versus copiers um
copiers are more cost efficient in terms of toner um and Equipment um repairs on them uh but there is um there always needs to be a little bit of buyin before we start removing desktop printers from
people's offices um for that so uh that's always more of a challenging task ask uh for the the desktop printers the copiers I think were in a good spot in terms of um the amount that we have in the town okay Jean did you have any
questions oh thank you for the presentation um one question I had you mentioned the munice and I hear a lot about munis I've never been on IM munus probably never want to be right um not this munus but are our issues behind
us on that or are we getting there um I think there's a light at the end of the tunnel um there we're getting there yes I think this next jump into the cloud we're going to see a significant reduction in issues um right now I can
say uh like Mason a lot of his in the previous person filling that role a lot of his time was taken up by solving munist issues um that we have seen that start to decrease and I think the closer we get to this um move to the cloud we're going
to continue to see that uh be a more efficient tool for the employees of the Town um as he's been working more uh more diligently on this upgrade so he might have some more comments to make on that I just I could give a quick update
right now we're currently testing the SAS cloud has been built the environment uh we have users testing um making making sure that all their access and everything that they they need to do to do their work is sufficient and if any
there are any fixes and bugs we're working through that um we'll continue to test uh through March and the live date is expected to be the first week of April not April 1st no April fools but uh probably the second but
um yeah so far so good the Tyler team you know the the company that own munus has been very responsive reactive and very helpful through this process um you mentioned town clerk software um one of the surprising things
when I took over his chair is the amount of coordination that's needed to be done for scheduling rooms getting zooms there's no workflow assoc we've talked about this one in the past too but there's no workflow associated with things um
are there kind of Municipal softwares or others you know office software that we can start to get in place to make the process of just booking rooms you know workflow through agendas to minutes even minute taking software
um you know some uh private boards you know have minutes at the end of their meeting because there's just software that they're used to to kind of come up with it so is there anything along those lines that could be pursued yes definitely I think um the the town clerk
software that I was specifically talking about was focusing on like the dog licensing um separate from that I um there are some features within like Office 365 software that does allow for like booking of rooms um it hasn't been something that we've like dug into
before because there's been we need we need some um backing and ways of like building the backend processes and and um foundations for that and then we can provide like some tools to help with that so I think there's going to need to be some collaboration between our
department and the town manager um to build those processes and then find the correct software that's going to um help create those efficiencies um I don't know if Office 365 would be the winner of that but I do know that they have the ability to like book rooms and whatnot
in terms of note taking um or minute taking um there are definitely some other softwares but there would be obviously a cost Associated that with that whereas if we could make Office 365 work um within what we're looking for it's already a cost that we're um we're
paying for within our licensing for email and documentation storage okay yeah I I think that's something we should look at I know on some of the you know the other boards that I'm on you know large meetings get put into small conference rooms in non-televised small
meetings get put into the big conference rooms and then that's well soone so has a you know this room but but they've really been virtual for a year and a half so we just got to get our hands around cuz I think it is a frustration level for a lot of Volunteers in town as
well as the flip side the volunteers interacting with the staff you know there becomes frustration for it so if there's anything we can do on that to make you know government run more efficiently I think definitely let me look more into the um the Microsoft solution for that um and I'll provide
some more feedback and work with the town manager and see what we can do okay and then as always if the schools can be on the same as us so that to the average you know citizen we don't have to know well schools they used to use School dude I don't know what they use anymore you know and you know this we use this
and oh they have to call this person a lot of tribal knowledge I think Associated as efficient and as seamless as we can make it exactly gotcha okay other than that um I don't think I have any questions although I would like to
get um you know the whole budget in actual La out yes um I'm believe we'll have that ready to send over um I have I have a preliminary one but um there was some changes in the account numbers so
that was being uh moved around a little bit so I'll just work with the team and make sure it's ready to go before we send it off but um that it that should be almost ready and then just generally speaking I would like to see um AC uals from you know prior years 5 years 10
years whatever we have current you know fiscal year 25 um budgets and then fiscal year 26 budget so that we can kind of look at Trends and make sure that you know it's not just a snapshot in time yep yeah and I think I think the um the budget that I
had been working off of had 23 24 25 on it um so I'll just make sure that that gets included in over um maybe as can help do that globally for everyone but I think standardized is also good you know make sure that we understand are we
looking at a um you know last year sometimes we were looking at proposed budgets versus Town manager budgets and Etc so just consistency is is always good for that definitely okay and then if they can be an Excel then yes you know the Geeks of
us can can run pivot pivot tables and all the fun things yeah yeah definitely so okay thank you yeah of course thank you one other question real quick and I don't know anything about Cloud systems but how are we like protected for
backup um so anything that's a cloud system that's not owned by the town that's going to be the responsibility of the vendor right so um like Tyler Technologies they own all not they own the responsibility of backing up that data um and the security of that data
anything that we have in house um any data of that sort we do have backups that run on a nightly basis um through a backup and security software um but anything again like Office 365 um their backups are in their system Tyler Technologies is going to have
their backups in their system we use um like assessor software for mapping and argis that's all all their backups and whatnot is going to be in the system that we have hired for that vendor that supports it um so anything that's in-house we um the town purchases
software to um Ensure backups are done on a nightly basis and we have a turnaround if there is an outage of um of any data loss we do have a a turnaround for that anything that's owned outside of um outside of that by
other vendors those backups um are owned by or the responsibility of that vendor I wouldn't know off the top of my head of like the turnarounds if something happened with that um but those are things that I can um reach out to the vendors and and get okay for that for that service level
commitment from them okay okay thank you thank you thank you all right so I don't I don't have any additional new business on the agenda um I just started putting under old business budget discussions and Warren articles and budget task force
recommendations as things that we've talked about um in the past and we'll want to you know have the ability to talk through as we through budget season um so with that said I don't have anything related to those items um unless anyone else on the on the
committee does um minutes I I'm not sure if we had minutes in thees from January 9th January 9th all right did everyone review on yes okay yes okay je did too okay um
so I would entertain a motion on minutes from January 9th motion to approve the minutes of January 9th second second all right roll call vote um Jean
I um Tanya I Jay I and an i for myself so let's pass uh next up would be any committee reports um I I do have one thing related to committee reports um and for the um this
kind of came up at the um the the planning the planning committee um they they kind of kicked us off of the um Master planning steering
committee um I kicked who want us thank Finance yeah finance representative yeah um no one ever reached out to me about it Evan was still sworn in as our representative yeah yeah yeah um in order for him he
would have had to have resigned and then the proper mechanism would have been for them to to reach out to us to re-identify someone um so they also K kicked parks off um during that meeting I don't they
didn't reach out to Parks either um that said is is anyone you know are they even meeting I thought they were no they haven't even met during that time either yeah so I mean it's a 15 member body which is
a little a lot right um but there's no communication associated with it um again I don't know that Evan even um resigned from it which off resigned from everything I don't know if he did or not I don't remember um but um anyways I don't know if we if
we care I'm not itching to take on any additional responsibilities um we do have more members that will eventually come on but um if anyone's itching to get back on to that I'm sure they would accept someone on it from us in one fashion or
another um um other than that I don't have any other committee reports does anyone else no not off hand I've been listening to a bunch of stuff on YouTube
but school committee has quite a deficit yes yep um school department school department yeah okay um any actions or topics for future meetings uh just by way of a
reminder um our next meeting is on uh the 20th um I'll have to reach out to Tom to make sure that he can come because we may have two additional members at that point hopefully we do and Quorum will make it easier um but we
will hear from Council on Aging Public Access and Library mhm um on the 25th we have police and fire and we're going to add the land use to Department um we had not put them on um they seem to be someone that some years we put on and
some years we don't um I think our forums often are used kind of as a good means for departments to kind of re remind everyone what they do and and kind of give a status of everything going on um so when I I talked to Jen about that we we did decide that we will
add um land use on so chryst will come in on the the 25th uh the 27th that's not of cycle one too so that's a Tuesday on the 27th DPW facility sewer and then we'll add in preliminary budget
in in capital so um the 27th um is looking to be maybe a long meeting um followed only by the longer meeting on maybe the 6th when um schools in Monty Tech come in
