Conference will now be recorded. And I also say if she doesn't go, could she send an email to the people she already knows that think they're going to be there and say, "If you have something, you shoot me an email
offline." So, you're still connecting with them. You're just not going to be able I see a job fair on there because I remember that she's attending somewhere. What was that? >> Yes. Um she made up pamphlets. Um there's a upcoming job fair. I don't
recall uh where exactly it is, but she's hoping to use that as a recruitment opportunity for for officers. and something like that. >> What's the supply? >> I think when I stopped in here, I think
it's at the Mano College, one of the colleges over there. So, what she made it sound like he's got a pretty robust law enforcement supply. >> Yeah. What's the badges? Like badges on the
uniform. >> They do cost a lot. But when they're selling uniforms, it is expensive. Make a motion to accept the PD report. Second. >> All in favor?
>> All right. Care center report is out as well. >> All right. So, looks like the December average census was 33.94. Um, down from the annual average by two.
Currently, they have 34 people in there um as of Thursday. Um, few referrals, fewer capable moveins. I guess it's part of the Christmas holiday. Um, so yeah, they're not able to
accommodate people with behavioral needs accounts for some of the turnoff referrals looks like they negative for the month of November >> considerably. >> Yeah. >> Yeah.
>> Yeah. Decreased Medicare residents. I'm having to get that increase. >> Could you get some now and not all of them at once? >> 40 grand.
hoping that be better by keeping people for a long period >> and get rid of the rest of the agency because he's got that >> long a motion accept. All in favor service
can go electrical part. >> Yeah. >> Thanks. >> Thanks for coming. >> Anthony electrical maintenance up at the water plant for a few years now. Trying to kind of be here
as like a definitely not a salesman or like a informationational on this stuff. Um, all right. So, this first estimate is for a new heater in the influent
building, which is the building where all the raw sewage comes in immediately. That's the first place that it goes. Uh, so that building is like being inside of a uh like a holding tank or septic system basically. uh go in there.
Everything has to be wired explosion proof or what we call intrinsically safe wiring which would mean that it can't really cause an arc. Um basically you can't have a heater in there that's just your regular garage
heater. You can't open in there because it could explode. Uh so we have to have a very expensive big explosion proof electric heater and they are not cheap. So that is And the reason we brought this up is
because the last two years I've had to go there and the heater has not been working. It's gotten out on high limit, which means it's gotten too hot. And what I found is the motor for the fan is bound up and not spitting due to the corrosion um inside the linings. So all
I've done is force the fan blade, turn the power off, and force the fan blade forward in a few revolutions. had to knock the rust off and knock on wood it's been working the last two years like that. So, um I have we can either replace the
whole heater, which it probably should be done, or we probably get by and just fix, you know, the root cause of the problem uh with replacing the motor. Um this isn't something that needs to be done right now, but I would say this
summer would be a pretty good idea um to have Um, any questions on that or anything I can make more >> the original? >> I think so. >> So, will it will that heater that we if
we bought a new heater, will that get corroded as well just because of environment or are they coated differently now? >> So, there is an issue with that building. That building has an exhaust fan. It's supposed to run A lot of the time, most of the time, right? All the
time. >> When I started, they hadn't ran it in years. >> So, I had it fixed. If you remember, I had that fixed. So, you because you have to have fresh air in there, but then you have to have the heater on. So, I had it
fixed, but years too late. >> I wasn't here. >> So, with the fresh air intake, this one correctly, you should be able to get, you know, more years out of it. Oh, I'm sure. Yeah. I'm just thinking spending $5,700
on something that's older, you know, as old as us, some of us or almost as old. Um, how much life is left in that? >> It's a roll of ice, right? >> Yeah. So I mean you can replace the
motor now and you know money you crazy answer I don't know how the money part works I guess but if you plan for future you know you replace the motor to get by for two three years for sure more than likely I would guess I can't guarantee
it um but then maybe have a better plan in place in the future to you know put a little more money into it >> the part that you're having to kind of move and then shut the power rough move. Replacing that motor would fix that or would that still potentially happen?
>> It would fix that problem, that particular problem. Um, the reason I gave a quote for the entire heater, um, is because the rest of it isn't exactly in the best condition either. So, I would say immediate problem is the motor spend the 5,795.
It's an estimate. It's not exact. Um, and now it can buy you a few years more than likely. >> Well, I'm understand putting a new fan in, you wouldn't have that high limit shut off because it's cooling it down. That isn't getting too hot, >> right? Yeah. We don't have the issue
with it going stop on it. >> Um, any more on that one? That's kind of the big ticket item there, I guess, for sure. Next one. >> Okay. So, these two
are for motor starters. Well, this is just one. It's two options that you have here. Um, this was played by a third party, right? This is like Minnesota pump or something. I don't know the company's name, I guess.
>> Um, uh, saying that a motor starter for a pump, which is just a automatic switch to turn a pump on. You know, you have like you're familiar with a grain vent setup. You may have a disconnect to turn a motor on. Well, this just starts a motor automatically
by pressing a button. Um, it's a older style starter. They're a little more expensive. Um, but this was flagged by a third party and I'm not exactly sure what the reasoning was. Was it just >> it shuts off? >> Shuts off on its own. >> The floats. It's in the lift. The lift
station is what the floats run. >> So, it'll tell it when to come on and off. Well, >> then it throws the alarm and then then that motor doesn't work at all. So, I have to run it by hand. >> Didn't you explain it further down in the thing here?
>> Is that is that the one where the float can get stuck with crap in it? >> Um, that's where >> Yeah, there's many on there. >> There's there's a few. So, the the two options are for a brand new one um for
the higher price of 1,23026 or I have a few that I salvaged from another job that I would say are reliable. I think I have a lot of these set in my shop actually. Um so, what if I'll warranty it for you know at least a
year if they use one of those battles come back and put another one in for free. Um they are working great on some air handling units building not a gross environment at all or anything like that. So
>> that's a must have one must have list. So >> any questions on that one? >> Okay. So, this was also a third party um by the same company
>> telling SH that this probably needs to be done. Um having some issues with pump three which is basically this is just a basic really big lift station like a u your sump pump at home. It's that
way way bigger and the four four pumps that all come on at different levels of which the water is rushing into that um tank. Um so there's four pumps total. It usually runs on pump one and pump two which are small pumps and they you can
alternate which pump starts first. Um pump three and pump four come on. They're much bigger motors and that basically means that you are having a rainstorm and she really needs to get the water out of there fast. Uh we have it set up so that if pump the last pump
actually comes on it calls out. It'll call her and let her know that they pump four is on some really serious issues with the other pumps or it's just raining really hard. Um, so there that being said, there's some issues with
pump 3 and third parties said that the wires might be bad going to it. Um, so to test the insulation and um, integrity of the wire, we do what's called a megga ohm test, which basically
putting a meter on it that sends some very high voltage through it. Uh, it gives me results on the amount of between the two wires and below if it's the ohms are below a certain level then
it fails and we need to pull the wires into that pipe. Um it doesn't happen very often. Um I've only heard of it happening on motors and things like that, but it does happen. The problem is is if it does
fail and we need to get new wires in there, it'll probably be very difficult to pull new wires into that conduit. It's very old and runs underground. Typically, they bend and break underground over time. Um, and the wires kind of glue themselves together in
those conduits. Um, so that is so we don't want that. We don't want that. We're open for that. put out the entrenching line, I guess, is is the but this price this estimate
estimate just kind of covers the cost of figuring that out and pulling in new wires into that conduit if it's possible. It doesn't cover trenching new wires out. So, this one's kind of your fingers crossed. Hope it works. Um, and then
also test and verify you that the alarm system activates when the pump 4 comes on the last and file pump >> and call shell which I believe we set up to pump four is running for like 5 seconds or something. We've had some issues with that.
>> Yeah, it'll only do it every so many times. It's like it's got a glitch. >> Okay. >> Because we did really good on it. We got that. I had never had that before and that's how we got it to work. >> Okay. Yeah. >> And then it then >> which is odd because I have it set up so
that the wires are just if that motor starter starts we're probably getting too technical. That motor starter starts the wires are just connected in there so that it'll leave the call if that thing is pulled in. Um any questions on that?
Uh, this one's pretty straightforward. She'll on certain uh pumps there's an hour meter right on the uh motor starter cabinet. So then she has to report how many hours it's ran a month, right? >> Just
got meters. >> Yeah. Nothing's cheap in automation. Is that similar to an outer meter like on a tractor? >> Yeah, basically. >> Y >> Yeah, it only take half hour later. >> Yeah.
>> Okay. Okay. So, this one's a little more um in that influent building where the raw sewage comes in at. Uh it comes in a basically a river channel that's in
concrete down there. Um and in that channel there are some float sensors which are exactly like the float sensors in your um at your house in your sump pump. Uh there's two of them right now.
Uh I think one's a backup or one >> three. One quit working. >> Good. >> So you put in a new one for me. Now that one quit working. So now neither of them will tell me if the influent channel is high. >> Okay. But it's >> the other one's the bar screen.
>> The one that works turns the motor on >> for the bar screen. >> Okay. What we need to run if the level gets up. Um, so what we're finding down there is there's a lot of sticks and debris and things like that and things like that to come in there and eat those floats up or there it's creates a issue
where it doesn't allow the float to come up and start the bar screen which is for the sake of this conversation pump water. Um, and we Shell's been we've kind of looked
at this a few times over the years and we're looking for a solution that is way more reliable than just floats. Um, so what that is is it's called a uh transducer and you put that inside it's
a tube more or less you put inside of the channel in the water and it can sense by the water pressure the height of the water in that channel or you put them in tubs or things like that too by water pressure it'll tell you
uh how high that is. Um, so however, when we put that transducer in, we need a readout for it up in the control station um and a different um starter for the motor uh for it to all work
correctly and be intrinsically safe uh in that explosion proof build. >> So that eliminates all the mechanical movement of anything, >> right? static is what they're selling for. There is also I was looking I was
for another job today. I was looking at a radar um transmitter for a grain bin which I was thinking maybe we could do something like that in this. So I could do a little bit more investigation in this and see if we can drive that cost
down a little bit. Um because it does say that it can work for liquids. I don't know how well it'll work with the liquids that are moving as fast down there. Um, that might be another option that we could use for this application. >> Shel, is any of this stuff dropped in?
You got to do it right now. >> I don't know what to tell you on that. Um, >> other than the my main one is the the lift pumps have to work to make sure you guys don't flood.
>> So, th those are the biggest one. As long as that heater. >> Which one? Which one? Which one of these is that? >> Um, that'd be the starter for >> one. >> The starter for pump >> second one. And then the pump three and
four. >> The 1600. >> What was it? A dollar on >> either the 500 or the 1230 for the newer used >> or you could put a used part in it. You have to >> see. And this is why I bought a camera to put on the grass, which I am up all
night long or all day long watching that silly thing because if those floats don't turn on those pumps and that graph goes crazy, then you're going to float. So that's I think the hardest part of
this whole thing is watching that graph on that camera. So yeah, those are the the probably the biggest things, but that is to protect the city >> from flooding. So we've had flooding
before a lot of neglect. >> Yeah. Well, then I think we should do with the $500 one in first and then that $1,600 one on this second best and then we will be probably good for a little bit anyway
until we can figure out what he wants to do with the rest of the stuff because the third one he said he wanted to maybe do the radar and maybe get it a little bit cheaper, a little bit easier to do. instead spend $1,500 for a new one, a
$500 one. He said it'll replace it if it fails >> for the starter. >> Yeah. >> Yeah. Yep. >> And then do the $1600 for this. What's Oh, three and four or is it one? >> Three and four. >> Then you're have you're going to have
that uh heater too that you're figure out by the summer. I was thinking I would say we put a fan on >> see if there's any >> put the fan on and see if that helps us >> there's any type of assistance that
>> yeah or community can get on something like that >> and the influent influent floats that do not work that is your influent high channel level and that has an alarm to it but if it doesn't work the alarm doesn't go off so
that doesn't tell me when you guys That was >> that was number four. >> Fourth one, >> I think. Yeah. Third was the meter. Second was three and four.
>> Number two is the starter is the heater. >> You're talking about the the transducer one. >> Yeah. >> Yeah. >> 5750. >> That's when you're talking about the radar or the pressure sensor one. Is that transducer?
>> Yeah, transducer. Or I mean, you know, it's it's not ideal to keep just replacing the floats down there, but I mean, we could replace the float, >> right? >> You know, >> and the electric through there, >> but they're still mechanical, right?
>> Yeah. It's going to be the exact same exact same thing that's in there right now. But at least it'll give her the alarm. You know, it'll work. >> Oh, gotcha. She'll give her the alarm because all she has right now is just a float that turns on and she doesn't know that.
>> So something should >> How long ago has that been? >> And that's in the channel. So that's been probably underwater more than not above water. >> How old is that sunset?
>> That floats and that electrical piece probably since the beginning. >> Okay. >> Well, no. I mean, the one that >> Well, the one float you put in new, but the electrical quit >> three years ago. >> Three years on that float. The other the
barc screen float and the other float, I'm sure, are probably just about dang near original. >> Yeah. >> Yeah. I >> mean, they've had a lot of work on those, I guess. But these are just three of the you know the pumps and your or
your lift pump wirings your starters and the influent you know there I can't protect you anymore than I can if they're not fixed right >> so you know it's kind of one of them things where I can only do so much and I
can't be there 247 >> I got a cop somewhere All right. >> What's this next? What's this generator thing? >> Um generator transfer switch. >> So this is >> this is a
>> Yeah. And it works, right? Be had it ever fail. It's never changed. >> Not Yeah. only that one time when I then when we had to do some work on the inside of there >> with the new >> with the battery
level >> that's been we've got that >> we've got that down >> so this is from sorry this is from a also from third party GSS generate system services um that uh they work on
a generator do the maintenance on it >> that's a new generator we bought a couple years Right. Yeah. But the transfer switch um is separate and is >> in the building. >> In the building. >> It's original. >> So, this is just a switch that if you lose power out there, it notices it
realizes that there's no power, starts the generator, and then 5 seconds later, bam. You know, then you're on generator power, >> right? >> Um I think the only reason he said that, he was like, "Wow, that's old." You know, I guess it's the
>> Well, you've been I I can't open it, but he can. >> Yeah, I can open it and see it. >> You've had to do some stuff to it. >> It will be something that one day. >> You will have to >> The switch itself is 15,000. Just the switch.
>> It's an automatic switch. And it's >> it's a big box. >> It's like a >> I can't remember where that's at when I >> It's right in the corner. >> It's a big one. It's about this. So bigger.
>> Yeah, it's just an automatic big switch that switches really really fast and really really hard. >> Um, and this is this would be the >> Yeah, 600 amp threephase. It's design that generator designed to run the whole plant exactly as it is without cutting
anything out. It's all needed. Uh, so that is to replace um basically the guts of that switch. Um, I'm talking with the guy from GSS. He says that we can pull that out, put new guts in basically, put
the new switch inside of that enclosure and it should work great. Um, but it does work right now. >> So, it's something we can kind of look into, not need to be done right this moment, but to start looking into budgeting. >> Yeah. Yes,
>> this isn't even a this year thing, I don't think. I think it works fine. >> Okay. >> If it if it fails, you can manually switch it. >> It's dangerous. >> Put the arc on there. >> I don't like it that it's in the office.
So, you're sitting about this far from it when that thing whams. You almost >> That's a lot of noise. I think I'm doing >> like say it's dangerous but you could do it shouldn't be doing it purely from an insurance perspective.
>> Name me as a beneficiary please. >> I got to add to this a little bit. We did notice that um the generator itself isn't really is not wired to code. I believe when they put it in someone came and made it the electrician made it
work. Um, basically >> so that might be something to there's open not open wires I guess there's wires that are meant to be in conduit that are sleeved over the top of the
generator itself and into the >> so when they when they when they replace the um generator the new you know where the wires came out of the ground that match up with where the new brake Um, so maybe that would be something
that we >> So, are they out in the elements so that the sun could >> They're not in the elements. The whole generator is enclosed. >> Okay. >> It's just not >> It's supposed to be >> It's not illegal. >> It works great, but yeah, >> it's not right.
So that might be something. >> How did that get passed? >> Inspection on it. >> Yeah, there should be a sticker >> cuz that generator is not that old. >> I was going to say >> I don't think it. We could look it up online. >> Should have been. It was enough money.
Trust me. >> 89. >> I can't imagine. >> But that's the electrician. The electrician pulls responsible. >> Yeah. >> And we had to come up within 30 days. >> That's a big
>> Well, we rented one. >> Yeah, we spent 65,000, wasn't it, on renting that generator to replace it? Not replace, but just use in the meantime. >> Oh my god. Yeah. Yeah. That's why the 30 days I
remember that now. Yep. >> It would be nice then to find out who >> Albert Lee did. >> Who did >> Albert? So if he didn't turn it in then no one would know to look at it. Correct. Like
the state guy, >> right? We can look online. Okay. There's another part in here, the water plant priority too. Is that for guest hunts? Is that just for
>> this? This is just like for Yeah. future stuff or things that would be nice. Um Oh, yeah. So, I'll just be wrong. Number one, boiler. The new boiler, which is two years old, >> three. >> Okay.
>> It's wonderful. >> Yeah. Boiler runs non-stop in the winter and overheats the main hallway. Install current transformer relay on circuit feeding hydronic unit heater fans and connect. This is getting to me too. >> It wants to put a switch on it.
>> Yeah, I know this. Right. Um so basically that boiler when we put it in they told me to wire it so that there's just a switch there. So in the winter you turn the switch on and that means the boiler is always heating water. It's a big enough building. Um,
but so what we found happens is with that boiler always running, uh, the hallway heats up very like way too much. It's hot in there when you walk in, right? Um, >> 115 >> in the winter or
>> It's a hot one. >> Yeah. So those exposed pipes. >> Yeah. It's just heating it up too much. So this 725 is basically a way for me to control the boiler so that it's only needed when
it's called for. Um so there's fans um the water gets pumped to different fans with heat exchangers on that blows uh air across these heat exchangers that are heated up by the boiler. Um when those those are just ran on a thermostat, the fan just turns on. Um,
so as a way of sensing that with the with the current sensor inside of the panel, um, when one of those fans turns on, then we will tell the boiler, hey, it's time to start. So the boiler can shut down. I can't tell you exactly how much money it will save you and why
it'll pay off. >> Probably in a month, >> I assume pretty decently fast. >> Yeah, it's heating up 115 degrees all winter long. In that hallway, is there any equipment in there that having that hot image on top of it?
>> I got fans on it right now. >> Put your shovel snow up the door and the whole sidewalk. >> Number two is install 480 volt receptacles below disconnects for SO2
pumps. What's SO2? >> Sulfur >> sulfur dioxide >> install matching nail enzyme ports for simple connect disconnect for changing seasons. So there's a couple pumps that Shell drops out into a pit every year
and every year either she or I has to wire those hard wire those to the disconnect isn't really an ideal situation. uh for paying me for a service call. Um you know that's $230 a year for me to hook
it on those. Uh we put some just cordons on them so she can plug them in. It's the one time 580 deal. She can plug unplug all she wants after that. >> I don't like personally wiring. I don't like electricity. But I've had to do it
and I don't like it. something that you do year in and year out. >> I'm not supposed to do that. The electrician's the only person supposed to be able to that. >> Well, especially 480 volt. That's >> might help you curl your hair. >> Yeah. Maybe that's what's wrong.
>> Only have to do it once. >> Well, on this list is um disconnect switches are not designed to be used to start and stop three-phase motors. They are meant to turn off power to a motor in emergency emergency situation or to
ensure power won't be turned on for maintenance. Install start stop stations and core connection point for SO2 pump and pump mixer. This will involve removing motor starters from electrical room installing new control cabinet
outside mounted on the rail. So this is for the same pumps that we just talked about. Um there are disconnects out there. um that she uses to start and stop those pumps, which they are pretty small pumps, but those disconnects aren't really actually designed to do
that. Um she has no way of standing there and looking at the pumps and you know starting them without using that disconnect. The start stops are in the building that's down there below. um she has to go she to tech genically do it
right she would have to walk into that building hit the start button and walk back out which I guess if there's two people there that's fine you can make sure your pump is spinning in the right direction and there's no issues when you first start it up so that's what that is
for um probably not super super high at all >> it's not the highest on the list >> that's for sure >> nice Yeah. Well, and it's kind of the right thing to do instead of using knife
switches. >> Back then, you know, they littered them with knife. Knife switches are just everywhere. And they never ever thought about having switch, you know, to turn everything on off, but they would have
expected two people to be there. >> Nowadays, I mean, that's one person. So you'll go from the office all the way down to the tank to do it the the right way. Otherwise, yeah, you're using nice switches, which they're not they're just not made to do
that. It's for an emergency. >> What if I propose this? You bring back a list saying, well, we should have these within six months. These can be within a year and these can be later. Then we can spend the money. >> How does that sound? Prioritize. Yeah.
>> Well, that's kind of >> kind of what she's doing. >> Yeah. To us now, you know, >> but what >> I keep bringing them these things, but no one ever rejects. So, there's, you know, I don't know how. >> So, there's a couple of them that are listed as a must. >> Yeah.
>> I agree. >> And a couple of them that could in the long run save us. So, should we vote on the must? I >> think we should start getting some things started >> and then look into if there's any type of assistance.
So if I understand correctly, the it's the lift pumps that are the >> the essentials >> starter for lift pump. >> That's the 500 one right there. >> I would say let's go with the used one.
And then the pump three and four the that's the wiring. >> And is that 1,600 is the best case scenario or is that 1,600 is what you think it's going to come out to? >> That's yeah
that bad is the actual cause of this. That's the problem is some of this takes a certain amount of um digging into um which you know I I don't want to have to dig into something for three four hours
and not get paid to do the digging you know. Um, so but yeah, I mean if those wires are in fact bad as the third party has said that they might be, then this is the
best case scenario for fixing them. >> Okay. >> Um, they might not be bad. It's not common, but it could be something else. >> What do you think worst case scenario would look like roughly?
He had a He had a trench out there. >> 5,000. >> But if three and four fails and the city floods more than that's a cheap $3,400 difference. >> Now, where would this money come from and what do we have for money in that?
>> That is a great question. I don't think we >> could fund theoretically. >> It could be with the sewer because you're we have our sewer fund for the water. >> So, this wouldn't necessarily have to come out of general, >> right?
>> Right. That's why you have those fees on utilities. >> Correct. >> Um we just need to make sure >> how much there >> Yeah. We just need to confirm that because we have to keep a certain amount in there, too. We can't spend it down to >> I think it's under 35%.
>> Um and ABDA would be is it I think the minimum though is >> can't go below 35 but we try to keep it around 50. >> That's what we design those fees for. >> Build up to fix it. >> Right. Correct.
>> Correct. >> And that's something that we could you know bigger ticket items doing but if we were to do the two that are listed as a must. Pump two, >> well, there's three must, but yeah, >> pump two and then pump three and four.
And then we did the the boiler so it shut off and then cook everything in 12 degrees and potentially could save us money. And then the >> that was 400 bucks, wasn't it? >> 74 and a quarter. >> And then the 580 at the same time
>> 580 we' be at 3405. What about also that sludge motor for 230 250? >> That's adjust. >> Was that or meter? Is that something >> I mean >> that you said >> or is that something that >> Yeah, I have to re I as a permit you.
Yes, you have to have everything down. Yeah. >> Keeps us in compliance. >> 36. >> Yeah. All 36 3750. >> The only other thing I would recommend
adding to that just to at least get going is the um that transducer one that I gave you for 5750. Maybe not do that, but at least replace Oh, that's right. >> One's already went out, right?
>> Yeah. So, she needs that for she can sleep on there. >> What's a float? >> The float. She might have You have >> I might have the floats. Yeah, it depends. Some are old style mercury, which is illegal to use anymore. So,
>> but anyway, probably >> Yeah, >> they might. They're usually like >> just replace around 300. Yeah, I was going to say 375 unless it's worn out. But yeah, and then if that electrical line in there needs to get replaced.
>> The question I have with that is is we keep putting these floats in there. They only last for how long? >> Well, you said three years, right? >> The electrical part is the worst. It's under the water more than it's above. >> So, we spend the money the bigger amount
now. Will we still have the electrical problem with this new system or not? Is it where it doesn't flood down there, which is I mean it's not supposed to flood down there, but down there a lot. >> But wouldn't that new transistor keep that from flooding and keeping that
under? >> Well, it won't keep it. It will just let you know. >> It just it's just notifying. It's not. >> Yeah, I bet that was your job to keep it. You wouldn't be able. >> She also services other plants. So you have to be here. You just have to
>> Well, I mean, >> it would be her job to notify somebody if she couldn't do anything and then we could do it so it wouldn't flood the state. >> People service has a duty in their contract to make sure that something's done. >> Think of the electrical as the problem.
If that's getting flooded, then we need to raise that >> that whole >> that conduit up so that our cords are dropped down for maybe 15 feet above the bottom of that building. So that way our cords are >> instead on the wall because my theory is I don't want to spend $5,000 and we're
going to have the same exact problem if we're doing floats. >> Um we got to fix the vein problem which if it's the conduit and the electrical that's causing the issue, that's the part that we got to figure out. If it's not the float that the problem, that's just my
>> could have just run it straight down from way up above. >> Yeah, >> just straight along. >> No openings anywhere. >> All closed. >> That's the question. I mean, I have no problem spending the 5,000, but if we're going to in two years have the same
problem and say, well, if it does electrical, it's like, well, >> and I I think it's the environment that it's in. It's so >> right, >> you know, it just erodess everything. >> What do other plants do in that situation? >> This is like an original.
>> They're Yeah, they're all made so different and a lot of them aren't like >> ours. You're not walking into a deep dungeon septic pit. You know, a lot of most of them aren't like that.
>> Ours is unique in that way, for sure. It's more than >> Yeah. I mean, it works. The plant works good. Yes, it's old. >> Yes, it's a lot of work to keep in compliance, >> but the little things are going to start
adding up even more. >> So, >> no. >> So, if we were to just add that float on top of what we already talked about so that she doesn't have to look at the camera, >> I'll still look at the camera. Not all the time, >> but you might have a Yeah, a little more
package, >> little piece of mind. >> Yeah, >> we're looking up to 4,100 bucks if that's 375 to 400 bucks for that. >> 1600. >> Yeah, >> we do.
>> Let's say we start. We got to start somewhere. >> Yeah, >> we got some We got some big big hitters on here, but we have to see if we can What's in there? >> There's got to be a grants out there somewhere.
>> Yeah, but I would say up to 4,100 bucks for that enterprise funal stuff. Is that included in that quote that you were just the conduit? >> The 300 some dollars. No, but I think we
could for the 375 we could run the those quotes got pretty long cords on it to a different junction box. So before I go too far, just for clarification, um, install used parts for lift 2, $500. Work on wiring for
pumps three and four for $1,600. Replace the meter $23250. Add a boiler thermostat for $725. And install receptacles for 580. Was that one of the items? Okay. and then replace the float which was not a specific price,
>> right? And for a total of up to how much were you guys? >> That comes out like 4,100 right there. >> Right. But if he has more,000 >> Yeah. >> And they don't have to email us saying that they need us to approve
>> overage. We that amount and if it's anything over that they're going to have to >> I'll make a motion replace all them items up to $5,000. >> Okay. >> Second. >> All in favor? >> Thanks. >> Thanks. Sorry.
>> Oh, can you repeat all that? >> We thought you were done. >> Okay. Did you guys see the year end thing that I put in? That was the whole year of 2025. That was your gallons in, your gallons out, how many hours were put on pumps,
things like that. I'm going to start doing that for you on a monthly basis so you can see how many hours are on everything out there and how much water that we get in. Now, did you notice that we had 33 million gallons of
ini? Okay, let everyone notice, >> but it should get better. The um the generator temp, we're still watching that that those uh those heaters on
there and things that come with them aren't the best, but I unplug it, plug it back in, and it seems to be working. DSS knows generator services. So >> is is that a diesel generator? >> What was that? >> What what kind of power is that generator?
>> That's natural gas. That's our big gen. >> But it is it's it's going fine. He said not to worry unless it drops under 75. >> Is that something that's included on the contract when we bought that thing? >> Yes, but you guys didn't go for the warranty, so nothing's covered. So
>> yeah, I tried that already. I thought maybe they would. >> There was a reason why we didn't go with the warranty. We didn't have enough money. >> Um I did more chloride samples in the town. That's part of our
variance. I turned that in January 31st. Um and the surveys are coming back in full force. Did all of you fill out a survey? You did. You did? >> Not yet. >> I will give it to you, >> Josh. math. >> Oh my god.
>> Come on. >> Uh, bioids report. I finished that 1231. Sent that in. We are a tier one on the PAS in our plant. We are good to go to land apply. If it goes up to a tier
four, then you would not be landly and you guys would have to pay someone to send it out of town. So, we're we're doing good right now. So, let's hope we stay at that. >> Homeland Security for chlorine and sulfur. I just sent that in. I did send
the bill to you guys through email. >> Yes. >> Homeland security involved in that. >> Yep. Why are they >> because it's gas explosives and things >> could do a lot of damage with that if you knew what you were doing,
>> you know, and if there's a huge accident, they want, you know, this is you would call one of these. Um there's five places that you call if you have a major chlorine leak beside your own. So, they need to know how much you have
on pan. um the the ladder and the trickling filter. It never came with a ladder. So, I climbed down into the trickling filter. It's about this far down. Um
the ladder never came with it. It was homemade many, many, many, many, many years ago out of heavy metal hooked with a rope. The thing is falling off the hinges. It is completely rusted. I wish they just would have did aluminum to
begin with. So, I do have a bolt for a small aluminum. It has to be put on with latches so I can get in and out of the filter. If I was a little taller, I might be able to get out faster, but it is a safety issue. >> Oh, yeah. Definitely.
>> Can you go in there all by yourself, nobody else around? >> Uh, no. I go in with my gas meter. >> Okay. >> And hope for the best. Um, usually I call someone and tell them I'm in there and if I don't call them an hour, somebody better send them.
>> So, you have a lot of ordered or you're wanting >> No, I have to get the quote for Yeah. >> Yeah. >> It can't touch the filter media. It's plastic. So, you can't have a ladder laying on. I can't walk on it. I have a certain area that I have to walk on
because it's 7 foot heat plastic that you're ariated plastic that you walk on. It's not ideal. And the bar screen to help with the garbage at the plant. I um
devising another garbage catcher. It's very simple. It's just a hunk of aluminum at a 45 degree angle. Nothing special above it. I'll have a rod in there. So, I will lift it out of the channel, pull the garbage off, scoop it
with a shovel, and throw in the garbage. I mean, you guys got to get rid of this garbage is I mean, it's hot and heavy. It's just wrecking everything out there. So, and it is old style bar screen out there and that's half the reason, but we don't have $600,000
for a new piece of equipment. So, this little bitty piece that might cost you 600 bucks, it's either that or a whole new room. And I think that is a very good try to try first. So, I'll be
getting the quilt this week on that. And there's no it's just a I just told him put a rod in there so I can lift it up, pull it off and throw it. The hoist does not work still. It probably will never work in there. But so it's it's
hand delivery of 5 gallon buckets from the basement to the top ground. So if anybody gets >> that's outside that we talked about >> way down in that that room. Yeah. So, but that's gar that's all garbage coming
out of there and sand, rock, sticks. >> That's it. >> Metal. Yeah. I got I have to bring it up, bag it, and then I throw it in the dumpster. So, but you your dumpster is up top. So,
>> it's it's not ideal whatsoever, but it can be done and that's what I've been doing. But we don't have 600,000 for a new building. >> Nobody's got that kind of money for that. You're >> not dragging the stuff up the hill by yourself manually. Or you have like
>> I throw it in the back. I throw it in bags on the ground. I line all my bags up. I throw them in the back of my truck from the back of my truck. I drive it up from the dumpster, get in the back, and I throw it. >> So that's the only way. >> You do that every day.
>> I try not to do it every day. Two more years maybe of that and then I'll be done doing it. >> That we can bring like >> the there's a hoist in there. >> Okay. >> But it needs repair. It needs work. It hasn't worked in many years. So there we
are again. >> Aren't you? >> That never got fixed. And this is what is happening. So, I mean, you guys will really have to take the indepth tour if
you really want to see the fun stuff. >> Yeah, Janna's seen she's seen some of it. >> But it's a work in process. So, progress, I should say. So, just look at it that way. A couple more years I can do that. Then after that,
slowly ain't going to be all bad. So have to find some high school kids to drag them out of there. >> Good luck. >> I know they don't want to do anything either. >> Yeah, detention kids and not a kid.
>> I will be gone February 2nd through February 5th. I'm taking my class B wastewater test. It's very hard test. I'll be up there for four days. >> Cross your fingers during flood season. So we're good. It's not during flood season.
>> No. Yeah, exactly. >> Yeah. And I did make a a thing for the flood season for the other workers that come here when I'm gone. And um I've asked them to follow it exactly how it says in my SOP
and um because I will find out if it's not done that way. So the map is in there where everything is at. Lift stations, manholes, trash pumps, but as long as you guys remember if storms are overflowing,
storms are not part of my department. So the storms would have to be done by the city and the sewers are flooding because of the INI and the storm water. So it's it's going to have to be a together thing. Everybody has to work together.
So, but if you if it I will always let you know when I go on vacation. But my guys know that I have a certain way that I want it to be done. So, if it's not done that way, I need to know
because I will find out. >> That's terrifying. >> It is terrifying. >> No, but it just it makes everybody's got to work together. That's all there is to it. >> Absolutely. So, I know it's people service. >> It's well, that isn't going to happen,
but >> but everybody will have to work together on that. And I don't want to hear any, you know, >> whiplash from either side. >> So, and my guys aren't from here. They don't know where anything's at. They But
so, I made a map some things so we don't have this issue. Okay. Thank you. >> All right. >> Anything else? was pushing you off the floor. That's fine. >> Thank you. Yes.
>> I'll make a motion accept. >> All in favor? >> Uh Eric is absent. Um let's see here. So uh seven blue cards were issued to residents this month. Uh there were zero shut offs due to lack of payment. Um so
the weekly maintenance uh started the water plant updates and controls 71. Um accepted to be on 916. I'm not I don't fully understand that sentence there. >> Um tree removal is complete at the lake.
There was 24 trees. They did a couple extra trees that were uh paid out on that needed to be removed. Um, >> yeah, there was. And if you go out there, you'll you'll never even notice any are gone. There's that many trees. >> Uh, put up the Christmas lights and I
believe they've already been taken down. Um, new fluoride scales in the water plant and the ice rink is ready. Uh, we talked about the, uh, the storm sewer, uh, jetting. Uh, Eric said that there was a little less work done because of the week that Braden was out. He was
kind of flying solo and there was a lot of snow removal being done. So those things were definitely the priority. >> Yeah. >> And he's got all of his supporting documents for everything. If there's anything you want to focus on
>> motion acceptance report. >> Okay. On to new business. >> Okay. for the new city chief city of the fire department. >> Where's your speech? >> Speech. Speech. >> Is there an essay?
>> Can I get the other guy? >> Should we >> take a picture after we're shaking hands? >> I will be out here in five minutes. >> Yeah. >> So, should we take the picture now? >> No. No. pictures. >> Heather told me I have to take a picture and I don't want to get
>> charge a lot for pictures. >> I move to appoint >> I figured he'd be the one. >> He'd be the one. All right. Well, congratulations >> discussive survey for the city council determinative department's report in a
satisfactory in this current form. >> Um just looking for consistency. There's you know obviously life events happen but there's discrepancies in who's appearing when and in what form the uh the reports are
being made. uh just doing a survey to see if you guys are satisfied with the current form of the reporting and then offer a ranked um approach to potential alternatives. Whether it be um you see
every department head quarterly, but there's still reports in writing every month or if it's first responders one month, everybody else the next. You know how whatever form that would be. But first of all, taking your temperature and if you're satisfied with the current form that it's taking.
>> I personally don't have a problem if there's nothing that they need approved by us. Um, and to address it to, you know, they didn't have to report that month if they have we have a set every other or break them up so that we don't
have all of them in one night every month and we're sitting here for an extra I don't know. That's my opinion, but >> and then they're still able to come if they >> need and present it, but require them only to be here once. We're not paying
them to sit here every month, just quarterly, >> by monthly >> or by monthly order. >> Like the idea of the first responder one month utilities. >> Yeah. >> Yeah. And then we could skip the survey if there was if you felt strongly enough
tonight about something and you wanted to make a decision. >> Still be nice to have the report every month though. >> Yeah. >> So that scanning give us a quick briefing of it. >> Yeah. In writing would never >> Yeah. Here we got one. I mean, it can
always be questions written down and and addressed and sent back out to you guys for for >> comment, too. >> How about a big ticket item that would need approval? >> That be just a quick request or
>> the if if there's a a request that Heather or I couldn't speak to, they would have to be here to to make that >> make that point. Well, what did we decide? Anything that wasn't budgeted was $1,500 and up to that certain dollar. whatever that
dollar amount was that wasn't budgeted and wasn't part of their dayto-day operating question. the way it is now or they're coming if they need something or not. Do we want though to have a schedule so
it's not just I don't know if it's my monthly feel like it needs to be >> let's develop up a time frame then >> the next meeting >> yeah can do >> talk to there's a certain time that was
less a month for any of them >> it might coordinate with their state reports and everything I know water has state mandated reports that have to be done here in February um so those are things that we're going to have to get completed >> and I think we should put it on the
website too so if a resident wants to be able to speak to something they can when they see it if they see it on I don't think there's a hell of a lot of people but at least it's there for them to do what they want say this person have report that would
be the agenda that's put on Thank you. >> Mhm. >> Okay. Moving on to the next >> discussing the Minnesota basic code. >> Yes. Um there have been uh several issues that have been brought
to me um to address and frankly our current code of ordinances just lacks the teeth to do anything about most of them. Um the League of Minnesota cities has come up with the Minnesota basic code uh with the assistance of legal
professionals and it's tailored to cities that are less than 2,000 people. Uh there is a $880 adoption fee and they have a a roadmap for success on it with you know the the whole process whether
it's reviewing your current codes to make sure that nothing's antiquated or getting lost in the in the shuffle. Uh they do recommend wholesale adoption of it uh barring sections that don't apply depending on what services your your
city offers. So that's uh I I believe that it would be very beneficial to to look into it >> because we were kind of heading that way anyway because we wanted to >> place over mano was it look at some
>> well there's uh >> lady that comes in here >> wasn't that what she was going to help look at >> well county governments, whatever. >> Yeah. >> Council of governments. >> Oh, okay. So, >> we were going to have them look at So, this is going right down the same path.
>> Yeah. >> Council of government charging us anything though. >> Is this is $800 some? So, um Tony did touch base with me at right as this meeting was starting. Um said that,
uh there was a updated ordinance draft like 50% was paid last year and 50% is supposed to be paid this year. Um check with American Legal Publishing as they'll probably have a second have to pay a second time if we want something changed. Um,
see here. I know that they trans standard numbering and updated language, but they didn't make any substantial changes to the code. >> Um, >> but the I I don't know exactly how that would work with this yet, but the
American Legal Publishing is a you a partner organization with the um Minnesota Basic Code. So, I don't know if there would be just a a baked in cost with that just because it's all they're doing is is basically saying, "Yep, this
is their code and hitting go." So, I don't I don't know yet exactly what that would look like. I was just getting your your temperature if that was something you'd be interested in exploring. >> Can we compare those two to your thing and then this thing and bring it back to us and say, "Hey, >> like compare the the current
>> what Tony was talking about and then what you are suggesting." So what so what Tony was talking about was um basically the process of bringing our existing code of ordinances forward um and having it sponsored on or
hosted on their website. Um they do some basically legal grammar changes where it's the numbering of the ordinances and the like all those those aspects. Well, I think one of the things that we wanted is to have them on on a web page
so we can look this place that you're talking about give us the ability to do that. >> So, um a legal American Legal uh publishing is who we are going through right now to quote unquote modernize our ordinances.
Um the Minnesota Basic Code is also hosted through American Legal Publishing. >> So, that's the same organization in the end that would happen on the website. Could it be that if we spent the $800, we get stuff done quicker? >> That's a good question. Um, I think that
the the things in the community would certainly be easier to do faster. I mean, obviously there's things that are grandfathered in, but one one example, um, the golf cart trail. like we have nothing in our ordinances that would
provide for you know us to get an easement or but in the Minnesota basic code there's even an ordinance that says if property owners along the trail band together and put a sign up it is a valid trail.
So that that would be if if all of the the owners are are in agreement. Okay, it cost us 50 bucks for a sign. Like that's a a huge swing from having to get easements and and everything else. Um then there's so
>> when it says a comprehensive plan to adopt it, what does that look like? >> Um so that would be involvement from council and administration and the police and everybody else basically going through and looking at the code making sure that nothing that's in there
in our existing code is antiquated. So they give the example on the website of having ordinances about hitching horses on Main Street. Like this is a chance to clean up all the old stuff uh and then looking for, you know, substantial differences in um what's in our code
versus what would be in the basic code because we'd have to again adopt whole the whole thing. So we'd have to be aware of what that might change for how we operate. Um, just looking at it compared to our code, I don't think it
would change much. I think it would just make it make it easier for us to do a lot of the the things that we've been talking about. >> I'm good looking. Yeah. >> Um, see here.
>> Next grant. >> Yes. Um, see this is this. So I think this is the one sent in. Was it the >> Yeah,
>> it was the liquor store one. >> Okay. So, the uh the EDA um had an application for the liquor store and the building, I believe, to the north of it um to uh fix
the entry door uh to the apartment, replace siding with steel, and fix the upstairs windows. Uh total project cost estimated at 5350, requesting $1,500.
Um, see here this is pictures of the >> door. >> Yeah. >> And oh, >> see here. This is >> is that door got a sto? >> Yeah, >> I know. That's why I
>> Okay, it's >> the pictures were >> not stellar. Okay, there we go. Yeah, >> replacing the front door on that one.
>> Yeah, everything. >> Okay. >> So, it looks like they are requesting $1,500 >> to make those. >> Yeah. approve it. >> Approve it.
>> We just need to >> make a motion. >> Make a motion to accept the EA. >> I'll second it. >> All in favor? All right. >> Okay. So,
>> all right. um gathered more statements to support Tina Wilson in the process of writing the grant for the flood um efforts. Uh met with uh Doug Christopherson and Jim Kohler, the uh county engineer. Uh we discussed uh the parking situation outside of Budox. Uh
the county position is that the shoulder was intended for parking and it will not put up signage. If the uh city wants to put up signage, that would be entirely up to the city. Um but again would require ordinance things to to get that done. Um snow removal on Broadway. Uh I
discussed the friction between the city and the county over the snow situation on Broadway. Uh being the plowing the snow to the middle and removing that. Um it costs us I think about $1,000 every time we have to have the trucks come out to help with removing that snow.
>> Is it Broadway Road? That's >> it is. Why are they saying we have to do it? >> Um, effectively they they clear the road and but because of the how the road is and where they can't push the snow to like up on the sidewalks and such, it's it's
less expensive for us for them to push it to the middle than it would be to try to have to clear it off of the sidewalks and and all that in the process. And they're not shutting down. Well, then be doing the same thing with street
>> because they can plow it off. >> Yeah, but it's going on my sidewalk. >> Yeah, but it's not going to a bunch of businesses, >> right? >> It's a whole business any more important than >> But you have also a >> boulevard in front where the up here
there's not >> and and all in essence they're three foot four foot in the curve anyway. So they're not doing >> I them all the time. But >> um so one of the possible things that um brought up was uh some cities have an
agreement with the county to be compensated for maintenance for the uh roads, but you take on the full maintenance cost and the the net gain for taking on Broadway. Um so >> maintenance explain maintenance is when
it's dry in the summer too. dry in the summer and you know storm sewer cabinets, the whole the whole shebang. Um they would pay for this year for Broadway it' be like $3,200 bucks and they have a $16,000 project going on down there in the summer down by
Trappers that we would be so we'd be negative $13,000 if we if we took that deal. >> That's >> Yeah. So we So we just will have to be aware in the future that that thousand dollars every time it snows is going to be have to be something that we we budget for.
>> 16,000 >> well 16 snowstorms matches up with that though. So >> that happens every year though. >> It's true. Um then snow removal at St. Olaf Lake was uh was a contention point
this last month. I don't know if any of you heard anything about that. Um, you know, there was I mean, it wasn't like an an argument argument, but there was some back and forth about who's doing what and why they're doing that. And so, it took a little bit of smoothing. Um, but it came to light that the county uh
plowing snow at the lake access for the better part of the last 40 years was the result of somebody having a gentleman's agreement years ago and nobody not doing what was customary. Um, and so
in the last snowstorm, somebody realized that the county was doing it at the county and said, "No, we we don't do that. We don't even do it for the the parks that we own with lake access." So, they're discontinuing that. Um, it was suggested that we either take
it on as a low priority activity, so whenever we can get to it, get to it, or involve the lake association or the sportsman's club. Um the one exception is to prepare for the annual ice uh fishing tournament. Um obviously we'd make that a priority to be ready for
that. Uh but the county did say that if the snow got to be too much for our equipment, then they would when available come out and bust through the crust to to make it accessible >> for a price. >> They didn't say anything about a price. They just said when it was when it was
possible for them. >> Someone turn them in doing it. Um I I think that somebody turned themselves in and said, "Oh yeah, I got this done." And somebody said, "Oh, we shouldn't be doing that." >> It's very possible the county is doing the same thing that every city's doing,
everybody's doing is going through their line items of what they do. >> And trimming things that are costing that they didn't know were >> being done. Well, I think we should ask the association and source. >> Yeah. >> And it's it's on the plan for for Doug
and I to speak with them and see if we can figure out a solution. >> Um, so I was unaware of the truth and taxation reporting requirement to the state. Um, I did report that to the county. Um, got a a nasty gram, but it was been remedied. That's water under
the bridge. There's no blowback from that. >> No penalty. >> No, no, we got in before there was a penalty. It was just a hey, you need to get this done. Um, Pantheon was on site uh began on their software. Um, need to communicate with the fire department, but we'll get that done. Uh, local
government aid came in at the end of December. Do >> you know how much that was? >> Uh, 300. >> It's like 280 something, but I can get you that exact number. >> Um, see, we're in the process of beginning the audit uh stuff. We have a
meeting on Wednesday morning that I'll need a city council member um either present or available on the phone for for that. Um already begun the groundwork for next year's budget being proactive on that. Promise it will go smoother next year. And then we did have
a emergency residential water shut off. Um Eric and I entered the home with the homeowner present did an inspection. Uh Eric believed that the issue was not with the city equipment. Uh service was restored with a warning to the homeowner to further investigate and resolve the issue and advice on safe some pump
discharge directions i.e. not towards the street. >> You went in with it. >> Yeah. >> Now, can this be kind of a helper to that checklist that we were talking about when remember where we go on property and we do something, make sure it's done so that it doesn't just hang.
>> Um >> yes. >> Yeah. So, so this this isn't really a situation like that, I don't believe. Um, and we did come up with a um basically a release that we want to run
by Jason Moran that says if >> then you'll bring it to us. >> Yeah. Um, but we're on it. >> Yeah. The the short the short version of that though is that it puts the responsibility for water turn on on the homeowner that they'll be present at the time, pay the fee, and any damage to
property or excessive use of water is on the homeowner. >> Yeah. So we >> I think that's fair. >> Yeah. So we >> it's not exactly a checklist, but it does say this is this is what you're signing when you say I want my water turned back on. Oh,
and that is that >> make a motion to accept administrator. >> Second. >> All in favor? >> Nobody else. >> Okay. I don't know how many of you guys know that I've been working on a project and I haven't included you guys in well
you but anybody else because I don't want to do the fair local meeting because of this last years and the years before and the years before taxing going up all the time. I sit there and I say, I want to get the taxes down. And up in
northern Minnesota, there's a place up there. They did a a plant like an ethanol plant and farmers grow cholina and they use it to help their crops grow better in the next spring. And then they can also um grind up the cholina seed to make aviation
fuel and diesel fuel. I my proposition is get a bunch of people together and I put it all out to state of Minnesota federal James Arnick Tom Sexton U of M forever green Sam Ziggler green seam in Mano
County commissioners and a bunch of other people to say hey we want to have a meeting get everybody together and see would this be worth doing and the second page of stuff in there and the third page is just a bunch of information that I gleaned off the websites and put it
together to say, "Hey, here's what we got." And I've got probably 15, 20 farmers that are really interested in it. We can make a deal. I've got a couple couple of farmers cooperatives. CFF is interested. Cargill really isn't interested because they don't have
enough farmers in this area that would grow to make it profitable for them. because I didn't want to tell them because I figured if they wanted to run with it and take it down there, we wouldn't have a plant built here in Richland to take our taxes down. That's the main reason I
wanted to do this because the plant would take 15 to 20 to 50 people to run. They came here and buy houses or build houses, our taxes were done. That's the main selfish part of this for me that I wanted to start this. And once this meeting's done, I don't want to be the
person to keep this running. It has to be everybody helping with that because it's we're looking at TIFF financing. We're looking at maybe federal funding, you know, all sorts of things like that. I don't even want to get into the weeds, but I just want to let you guys know that we're going to have that meeting to
have people come together and let's answer questions. Let's ask questions. We may just meet, but we may say, "Hey, let's go." >> This is a meeting that you're putting on, but not on behalf of the city. Correct. >> Correct. because you have it on city letterhead
here. So that's why I'm asking >> right here, >> but we have to be involved with it if it's going to be a go. >> That's the thing. >> We have to have buying for >> I know you have it was kind of brought
up at EDA before the EDA development at the county level and I believe that >> um got a blank on his name from the bank. had mentioned that he had gone to the
EDA county meeting and that that that wasn't the right place to talk about that and he was going to coordinate with Tina to have a meeting with you kind of one on- one first on what this that would look like. >> Okay. So I think part of it is you need
to talk with Matt too, >> but I don't am I correct me if I'm wrong with everybody else here. We would if it's going to be a part of a city thing, we have to approve to do a meeting like this. Correct.

saying, "I don't want their plant there." something like that. >> Yeah. >> Can they have their own sewer? >> Honestly, there's a point brought up because Sam brought that up today when I was talking to him on the phone. >> That could send our plant over the over
