00:01:54.240 --> 00:02:11.120
all to them. >> They've been posting >> posting. Yeah. Okay, good. >> I didn't check the last one, but >> I I had given it to them and Jack's pretty good about it. >> Yep. >> All right. Um, our first underme business, first topic is the CR itself.

9
00:02:11.120 --> 00:02:25.840
I put review of the uh revised CR map. I guess Selena, anything you have to say about the maps or the meeting? So, Dillis and Roy um I gave them our feedback. Ryan said that he will do

10
00:02:25.840 --> 00:02:42.879
those changes um and get them to us um with the next wave of materials. So, >> okay, great. >> They should be good to go. >> Have you gotten I know that it got sent to Misa. Has anything come back from Mist?

11
00:02:42.879 --> 00:03:00.480
>> Not heard a thing from Misty, which >> maybe check in with her, do you think? and just say, >> "Yeah, she had said that it would probably be like a month or >> more >> more before she got around to looking at >> looking at it." Oh, okay. All right,

12
00:03:00.480 --> 00:03:17.920
then. Then just wait. Um >> I guess >> Yeah, I was debating pinging her because >> Yeah, you don't want to be pushy. Don't want to be pushy, but I didn't even like get a yes, I received it kind of thing

13
00:03:17.920 --> 00:03:33.440
either. >> Yeah, maybe just a Hey, just checking that you got it. >> Yeah. >> Okay. All right. Um I'm I'm going on to 2.2 unless anybody has anything else. >> Just so everybody in the room knows, I

14
00:03:33.440 --> 00:03:50.640
sent that on March 16th. So, it's been three weeks now. Yeah, that's true. Today's the 9th. So, yeah. >> Would you like me to contact her?

15
00:03:50.640 --> 00:04:09.040
>> I wouldn't say no cuz >> because I can I can stress the urgency or the the the timeliness of this. Okay, I will. >> Great. Thank you.

16
00:04:09.040 --> 00:04:32.800
Okay. So, Emily, we'll check in with Miss Dean. All right. Um, the next thing is that I have is review the funding sources, but I think we're going to Mike, you want to present yours? We're going to start at the end with the Mass Historic Commission.

17
00:04:32.800 --> 00:04:49.919
>> Okay. Well, finally, if you recall, they wouldn't tell me which form that I was supposed to use, so we just went ahead and filled it out. And um uh it turned out it was the right one. And so down here, after review of MHC files and the

18
00:04:49.919 --> 00:05:06.080
material you submitted, it has been determined that this project is unlikely to affect significant historic or archaeological resources. And then sound signed by the preservation planner. So >> perfect. So we have that.

19
00:05:06.080 --> 00:05:22.000
>> So the question is who keeps it? So Selena, do you want to keep that? >> Sure. And I can make an electronic version of it. >> Yes. >> And to send to >> Okay. >> Yeah, that would be great. >> So thank you, Mike. This is like

20
00:05:22.000 --> 00:05:38.080
wonderful. So, um, on, uh, as far as the budget goes, um, the, uh, on the, um, I don't know if everybody's aware on the, uh,

21
00:05:38.080 --> 00:05:55.440
surveying estimate. Um, the NRWA will let us know after April 16th. They were going to, I don't know if you've had talks with Marissa, Selena. No, >> they were um going to talk to Dillis and Roy. >> Oh.

22
00:05:55.440 --> 00:06:13.440
>> And as far as cost went because it it came in higher than what they expected it to be. And so there was a question on um you know, she has to take it before her board and they are meeting on April 16th. So I'm hoping to hear right after

23
00:06:13.440 --> 00:06:30.160
that on that. So on that we'll just keep everybody aware. Um, on the BDR I put an email. >> Could you I'm sorry. I I was writing and I didn't hear. I'm sorry.

24
00:06:30.160 --> 00:06:46.400
I I missed that whole thing. So, um, someone from National River Wershed is going to contact Dillis and Roy. >> Uh, yes. The estimate came in from Dillis and Roy and it was higher than what we had expected when we first

25
00:06:46.400 --> 00:07:04.160
talked to them about the funding. Um >> it was almost double, wasn't it? >> Yeah. Yeah. So, um uh so she has to Marissa, it's Marissa who has been on our meetings early on. she came from the

26
00:07:04.160 --> 00:07:19.919
Marian Stoddard Greenway fund >> and um so we forwarded everything to her and she's going to run it through the by the board to um to see but she was going

27
00:07:19.919 --> 00:07:36.000
to talk to the listener first. So so that's where that stands. >> Okay. Um, so that'll be after a April 16th is

28
00:07:36.000 --> 00:07:53.360
their meeting and she told me she'd let us know after um what the board decision was. Um, on the BDR I had uh Anna had sent me um a list of providers. It was in the

29
00:07:53.360 --> 00:08:09.919
packet to all of you. >> Do you want me to put it up or >> Yeah. Yeah, if you want to. Um and and maybe the email stream too. Which one should we look at first? Let's look at the providers first. Okay. Um typically the BDR is done by the land owner. I

30
00:08:09.919 --> 00:08:25.039
guess it's done different ways, but the way I've seen it is the land owner because it's the points on the property that you want to make sure are looked at by the CR holder when they um go out and

31
00:08:25.039 --> 00:08:47.600
do the annual assessment of the property. >> So, you need permission to >> Yeah, I need permission to share my screen, please. >> Dave, did you hear that? I wonder if I can give permission. Usually I can't, but

32
00:08:47.600 --> 00:09:03.800
yeah, I don't have screen. Oh, wait. Share. I do have sharing capability, but can I participants? Can I make you the host? Do you have it yet? >> Not yet.

33
00:09:04.880 --> 00:09:35.000
>> Can I make you the host more? That's not what I expected to happen. >> Yeah, I think only they can. >> Should I go to >> um Dave, can you hear us? Could you give Selena screen sharing

34
00:09:35.040 --> 00:09:56.240
capability? He's muted. >> Oh, disable share. Host disabled attendee screen sharing. Okay, so it's probably coming to you. I think he heard me. >> Oh, good. >> Is it there yet?

35
00:09:56.240 --> 00:10:20.240
>> Not yet. disabled to turn the screen share. Okay. >> Did Dillis and Roy put the the um markers in for all the corner points? >> Not yet. >> Not yet.

36
00:10:20.240 --> 00:10:46.640
>> Um that's part of the the NWRWA. Sure. Yeah. Um once the funding gets sorted out, then they'll start work. >> Okay. Could you run down? Thank you. >> All right. >> I think there's five or six meetings

37
00:10:46.640 --> 00:11:03.720
tonight. So, >> yeah. >> Yeah, there are. >> He's busy. >> Yeah. >> Yeah. There were so many cars in the parking lot. I'm not used to it. >> I know. It's usually pretty empty when we get here. Sometimes the door is locked. >> Not often, but

38
00:11:20.079 --> 00:11:37.079
There's a little note here that said temps to plummet on Saturday. >> Well, that's because it's going to be 70 tomorrow. >> Plummet could be 50. It could be normal. It could have been normal, right?

39
00:11:42.800 --> 00:11:58.720
>> I don't see anything below freezing, though. >> Oh, that's good. I haven't put anything in the ground yet. >> Me either. >> I'm, you know, I keep wanting to. >> Although, usually by now I would do

40
00:11:58.720 --> 00:12:15.440
peas. Yeah, >> the cheese lettuce. >> Oh, >> I'll be right on it. >> Woohoo. >> Okay, I think we're in business. >> Yeah, sorry about that, folks. Go ahead. You've been given co-host, so you shouldn't There you go.

41
00:12:15.440 --> 00:12:30.959
>> Thank you. Perfect. All right, this is the list that um North County provided to us of possibilities. So um uh the we need to reach out to all

42
00:12:30.959 --> 00:12:47.839
of them or three of them anyway and get quotes for um you know just giving them the map and saying the you know the red striped area is the area that's res in the restriction and you know what what

43
00:12:47.839 --> 00:13:04.560
do they think it would cost to do baseline document report and I think in the packet. I put the BDR contents. Do you want to bring that one up? And then my email. So, the BDR contents. These are the things that are typically in a

44
00:13:04.560 --> 00:13:22.560
BDR. And I actually um did a little thing on this at the select board meeting the other day. Um, so you're looking at any of the maps of the site, the CR itself, and then the points, um, picture, photo, map really

45
00:13:22.560 --> 00:13:39.360
of the points that you want to look at. And when I've been involved with CRS before, it's always the corners of the lot. Sometimes there's a specific like if there's a a pond or a vernal pool or something like that that they want monitored that the landowner wants

46
00:13:39.360 --> 00:13:57.040
monitored, you would include that. >> So the vernal pool that's on the property would probably be a thing. >> A good thing. Yeah. To put in there just so that um you've monitored it. You might want a picture of the hill, the the sandy hill or whatever. Um, so the

47
00:13:57.040 --> 00:14:10.880
things that are important are the things that you put in there and then the um the CR holder takes that and when they go to do the annual monitoring they use that as their guide and then they

48
00:14:10.880 --> 00:14:28.639
produce a document um and a um usually a letter to the land owner saying take a look at you know what we found. Let us know if you want to if there's anything to deal with, you would point that out. Like the twisted tree y

49
00:14:28.639 --> 00:14:44.000
>> that was in the one that I showed on at the select board meeting. Um, we had one where a stone wall was taken down and snowmoilers were going from one property to

50
00:14:44.000 --> 00:14:59.360
DCR property. Actually, the town state forest zipping through, but they couldn't get through there unless they took down the stone wall on the property. So, the rocks were just >> off to the side. You know, things like that happen, and that's why you monitor

51
00:14:59.360 --> 00:15:16.320
to make sure everything's as it should be. So um we would ask you know we just a property site map and you know explaining that we would want a baseline documentation report for the

52
00:15:16.320 --> 00:15:33.440
things that we just mentioned and what would the cost be and the reason we need this now you don't usually do the BDR until the CR is in place because until then there's no point in spending the money if it have you know you have to go

53
00:15:33.440 --> 00:15:51.920
back and forth with e E O E A and they have to accept it and um once it's in place you do the BDR and then go from there but um the I talked to and there is a um it's the outlook one

54
00:15:51.920 --> 00:16:07.519
um the I talked to and you want to scroll all the way down to the bottom so um Daria Matthysse is the person in charge of the um of DCR's land conservation assistance

55
00:16:07.519 --> 00:16:26.959
grant. So, I sent this email to her um after our last meeting and um uh she came back. I wanted to know if there were funds still available and there are um uh they have a grants

56
00:16:26.959 --> 00:16:43.839
management system. So when you read it, it talks about and I didn't know if we had a login yet for it. Every town has one and only one login and they've been consolidating them from all the other grants that you know like a if you apply

57
00:16:43.839 --> 00:16:59.279
for a park grant or whatever the other ones are, a water grant or they're putting them all together into one thing for and the town a municipality. And so it's a municipality that will be applying for this. You get one login.

58
00:16:59.279 --> 00:17:15.839
So, but um Kieran tells me that we haven't applied for anything this year though we did have a park grant for kids country. Um so but >> but if that was far enough back they may not have already >> it was a couple melted everything. So

59
00:17:15.839 --> 00:17:34.559
yeah. So anyway, um, so and then the other thing question was I was going to apply for $8,000 thinking that it's typically somewhere from 3 to 10 for a BDR. At least that's

60
00:17:34.559 --> 00:17:49.760
what Anna told me. And um, she said, "No, you have to >> you have to have a >> you have to have a real number. It doesn't have to be the person that you use, but you want to. So, you would probably put in for the highest even

61
00:17:49.760 --> 00:18:08.000
though you might go with the lowest quote depending on what services they were offering. So, anyway, it doesn't need an RFP because it's less. It will be less than 10,000. I can't imagine it being more than that, but who knows?

62
00:18:08.000 --> 00:18:25.520
So, anyway, uh so scroll it down further. Um, so, uh, >> what's an RFP? >> Um, request for propo proposals. >> Oh, okay. >> Um, you need to do that if you're over

63
00:18:25.520 --> 00:18:43.360
25, I think it is. >> Okay. >> If you're under >> 30, >> is it 30? Yeah. Um, and if it's if it's between 10 and 30, then you have to have three actual quotes for this we could go

64
00:18:43.360 --> 00:18:58.320
without it, but for the grant, we have to give them a real number. So, we need the quotes. So, I was going to send for them, but then I talked to Karen. Um, and so my email to Kieran said I would I

65
00:18:58.320 --> 00:19:12.720
would um go forward and but we talked again later um because he would be the applicant and so he said um maybe he should get the quotes. So I want them by

66
00:19:12.720 --> 00:19:29.919
the 21st of April. So we'll see. Um, I'll talk to him again next week and see if that's in the cards. And if not, I may send it out on his behalf. We'll see.

67
00:19:29.919 --> 00:19:44.720
You know, if I can at least put together the letter >> to help out there, I think it would be helpful because we're still in the midst of budget and, >> you know, warrant ATM warrant, annual town meeting warrant stuff. So, it's

68
00:19:44.720 --> 00:20:01.520
busy right now. Um, so I wanted to get it the grant application in around April 9th, but I've switched it to April 21st, which is our next board of sele. Um, so if I can get it in after that, it

69
00:20:01.520 --> 00:20:16.880
would be good. I told her that we would be looking at, she wanted to know if we were trying to get this done by the end of this fiscal year or would it be FY26 into FY27? And I said that one

70
00:20:16.880 --> 00:20:33.200
um because it it won't be till FY 27th, >> right? Because that starts July 1st, right? >> Yeah. >> Yeah. >> So um so that's where we are with >> So we want to get the grant application in by April what? 20

71
00:20:33.200 --> 00:20:48.400
>> by the 27th. >> 27th. Okay. >> Which is town election day. >> But you said >> at the end of my term >> 21st. 21st to get the quotes. So, I want the quotes done next week. Um, and

72
00:20:48.400 --> 00:21:04.080
hopefully get them back by the 21st so I can work on the grant. It's not a difficult grant to apply for. It's pretty quick. Um, but Kieran has to do it because I won't have a town email

73
00:21:04.080 --> 00:21:20.880
address after the 27th of April. So I I'm hesitating to do anything where a response could wind up in the bit buffet, you know, just in never neverland. So um so that's the deal on

74
00:21:20.880 --> 00:21:39.200
the BDR. >> Okay. >> And that's all I have on funding sources. Does anybody have anything else that they want to talk about on that? Okay, moving on. 2.3 discussion of presentations.

75
00:21:39.200 --> 00:21:55.679
I thought I saw that the planning board um meeting was posted on the town website. Pretty sure it is. >> Oh, the recording. >> Yes. So, if anybody wants to see the recording of what we did with the planning board, because Mike, you

76
00:21:55.679 --> 00:22:12.880
weren't there, but the three of us were there and all we were doing was presenting, you know, to let them know what it is. And we're going to do the same with the board of water commissioners. I posted it as a joint meeting so any of us can come. I did

77
00:22:12.880 --> 00:22:30.640
this because if there was even one other of us because Todd's on our committee even though he hasn't participated, we would have a quorum. >> Yeah. >> So, um, >> forgot about that. Yeah. Good catch. So anyway, um when we first origin when

78
00:22:30.640 --> 00:22:48.400
I first contacted them, we were at 7:45. So I called this morning just to to the water department just to confirm because they hadn't posted yet and I needed the Zoom link. So they sent me the Zoom link because I had to post it >> by a certain this afternoon and I was

79
00:22:48.400 --> 00:23:05.120
going to be busy later in the afternoon. So anyway, um I got it from them and they told me to post for 7 because they weren't sure. They moved us to 7:30. I didn't know that till I answered your email this evening. Um I I I they hadn't

80
00:23:05.120 --> 00:23:21.280
been posted by like 2:00. Um but they are posted now and they have this presentation for 7:30. >> Okay. Um, however, what they told me this morning is they didn't know if their first appointment was going to

81
00:23:21.280 --> 00:23:36.559
show up and if it didn't show up, then they would move us up. >> Okay. >> So, I posted for seven. So, just know that. >> So, their meeting starts at 7. >> Their meeting starts at seven. >> And where is it?

82
00:23:36.559 --> 00:23:52.720
>> It's in the water department building at on Harbor Trace, 25 Harbor Trace. So, if you go down to the harbor and you know where the Harbor Trace development is, you make a left and you go down there. >> It's a really nice building. If you

83
00:23:52.720 --> 00:24:10.000
haven't been there, it's worth going to see. >> It's a nice building. So, anyway, um that's where it is. And there's also a Zoom link and attending by Zoom is fine, too. So, it it worked out fine. Emily and I

84
00:24:10.000 --> 00:24:26.240
were in person and Selena was on the Zoom for the planning board. >> I have a question. Um, am I supposed to write minutes for those meetings? >> Actually, we have to have minutes. I took minutes

85
00:24:26.240 --> 00:24:43.200
>> because I wasn't sure if it or not. >> So, Selena's going to write the minutes for our um Are you okay with writing minutes? Yeah, Selena will write the minutes for the joint. I forgot all about that. >> I I was wondering because I saw you guys and I'm like, I wonder if they're

86
00:24:43.200 --> 00:24:58.640
thinking to write down the the time we started was there and the time. >> Yeah, I I don't think I did that. >> The planning board has to have minutes. >> Um they have to as well, but >> but it doesn't necessarily record the

87
00:24:58.640 --> 00:25:14.480
start and end of hour portion of the meeting within their meeting. >> Yeah. So we when you have a joint meeting, you're responsible for writing the minutes >> if you're the one attending >> for your own. >> We don't have to write for planning

88
00:25:14.480 --> 00:25:28.880
board or anything like that, but we have to write for us. >> Just just so you're aware, Ronnie, what you said a few minutes ago, I I posted the planning board meeting from Monday or whatever day it was. That is up on

89
00:25:28.880 --> 00:25:46.799
the YouTube channel already, so you can get it from there. Good. No, >> go ahead. That's all. >> We could almost just copy that and show it wherever we're going. Um,

90
00:25:46.799 --> 00:26:02.320
reccomission isn't meeting because they don't have a core. Um, and I don't think anybody pulled they only have two people. They had a a member resign. So now they only have two and they need three for a quorum. and because they're

91
00:26:02.320 --> 00:26:17.760
a fivep person board and so they can't meet um and so I don't know what will happen there I if I remember right there isn't anybody that pulled papers for those positions so there might be

94
00:26:52.480 --> 00:27:09.120
before the request was made that that we do a presentation, I was asked to give a brief update. And then when we were going to go become a little more elaborate, I went to Colby and I I told him that make sure there's enough time for me to go,

95
00:27:09.120 --> 00:27:26.080
you know, a little bit longer than I was planning on originally. And then Selena couldn't make it that day. So, and I think I covered most of everything. I think I did an okay job. Um, but uh James didn't get Gates didn't get sort

96
00:27:26.080 --> 00:27:42.799
of the the big picture that this was not just the brief update. It was a little bit more elaborate. So, I talked with him last night after our meeting and he says seemed fine. So, I think we're that one's covered for now. >> Yeah. He was at he was a planning board

97
00:27:42.799 --> 00:27:58.799
for our presentation. He was there on Monday. >> Okay. >> So, um, >> and he was Oh, wait. No, that never mind. That was a different meeting. >> Too many meetings. >> So, yeah. So, I I thought I remember him

00:27:58.799 --> 00:28:13.840
being there. >> Yeah, he was. >> Um, so yeah. So, he did that. What what I gave them was just the um the draft that's in Nissa Review and the um and

99
00:28:13.840 --> 00:28:30.799
the map that was the the last official one that says Groten Mass at the bottom. That one that's what I gave to the planning board to put in their packets and also to the board of water commissioners. >> And then we just talked about it.

100
00:28:30.799 --> 00:28:45.679
>> Yeah. So that's all. >> And I actually watched the video because I wanted to try and see if there were any questions or and thank you for the shout outs to all of us for the work.

101
00:28:45.679 --> 00:29:05.039
That was lovely. >> Um but yeah, you you did an >> very good job with it. I think it was >> bothered to check out our YouTube page. Dave, we can hear you. Oh, I'm sorry. >> It's okay.

105
00:29:57.039 --> 00:30:12.799
longer on the select board after the 27th. I requested an agenda item to discuss the makeup of this committee to see maybe if I can be appointed as the select boards representative even though

106
00:30:12.799 --> 00:30:31.279
I'm not a select board member. Um, but if not, it when we I'll keep coming to the meeting. But Selena, you might want to post the next meeting. I'll be happy to work on that with you and send you my docs because I think I send PDFs and um

107
00:30:31.279 --> 00:30:46.559
>> and uh you know, and you might want to redo the um chair, vice chair, clerk um positions. So, cuz I I think that this group should

108
00:30:46.559 --> 00:31:04.000
keep meeting as time goes on, don't they? Even though we're we're pretty good, but I think it should still meet, don't you guys? >> Yeah, because we need to make sure all the tees are crossed and eyes are dotted to like have it

109
00:31:04.000 --> 00:31:20.480
>> go to completion. >> Right. Right. And when they come back and make changes, we're going to want to review those. >> Right. and decide how to respond I think as a committee >> for I mean there will be some stuff that you know um

112
00:31:54.320 --> 00:32:10.720
So, you'll see that address because as soon as I'm off the board, my um, email goes away and with it everything that is in there. So just know that it makes it difficult but that's what happens.

113
00:32:10.720 --> 00:32:26.559
>> Yeah. >> Um anyway. >> All right. So next meeting. Do we want to set a date? >> Yeah. I don't see anything listed. >> Yeah. >> So I think we don't have anything beyond today. >> Um

114
00:32:26.559 --> 00:32:42.480
well it it should be for sometime a after the 16th because we won't know about funding until then. Um, >> do we want to try for the following week like Thursday the 23rd? >> Yeah.

115
00:32:42.480 --> 00:32:59.120

116
00:32:59.120 --> 00:33:14.960
>> And that's CR committee. And I am still on the select board. So I will might have an answer then to >> who's >> who's Yeah. >> Yep. >> So um so I'll post that one and make sure that we have to write myself a note

117
00:33:14.960 --> 00:33:31.039
on Monday to say postc committee. If they don't appoint you as the representative will one of the select >> I I had asked for that I in one of the meetings a while back

118
00:33:31.039 --> 00:33:47.039
>> if I recall correctly the makeup of the committee included someone from the select board. So >> yes so be one or the other >> but I can still attend the meetings and sit in a chair.

119
00:33:47.039 --> 00:34:03.039
So that's what I would do. So we'll see. So all right, last >> the agenda. >> Oh, the agenda. I see it as being very

120
00:34:03.039 --> 00:34:20.320
similar to what we have right here. Um, unless something else comes up, but we should have an answer on funding sources. We should be working on that BDR um funding by then have a grant app

121
00:34:20.320 --> 00:34:36.480
in I hope uh we should know from the Marian Stoddard um fund where that stands. So, um, we're coming down to the to the wire where it's just going back

122
00:34:36.480 --> 00:34:53.200
and forth with the, um, with the, uh, agencies, the state agencies, which we've already started. >> So, >> I have a question about uh, Dillis and Roy charging like double

123
00:34:53.200 --> 00:35:09.920
of what they estimated. So, I don't think they gave us the original estimate. I think we came up with that number when we were >> when we were coming up with how much we thought everything would cost.

124
00:35:09.920 --> 00:35:26.640
>> Okay. >> I think we said we think it'll be around this >> because that's what it was when I mean when the land trust did it. And when was that? It was um around 2021

125
00:35:26.640 --> 00:35:43.200
when we did it. Um it was right before we 2021 2022 because all of the towns and land trust properties went to North County in 2023. >> Okay. >> That was when the final transition

126
00:35:43.200 --> 00:35:58.400
>> years ago. >> Well, a little less than that. Four maybe. Well, five could be five. inflation. >> Um, >> tariffs, >> well, gas money to get to the fields. >> To get to the fields. We did on the land

127
00:35:58.400 --> 00:36:15.359
trust property up at the top of West Meadow Road and that one um was right around 10,000. That was a pretty pretty large piece of property and pretty extensive. So, and they did all the filings then

128
00:36:15.359 --> 00:36:32.800
with the um registry. They made everything real, you know, and and it was good. Um, and they did uh the property that of Bututs, that's only 20 acres, but that AB Butts Meeting House Hill Park. >> Y,

129
00:36:32.800 --> 00:36:52.640
>> they did that pro that property for us, too. And we used a an NRWA grant to do both of those. I'm trying to remember exactly which one it was, but um because they have several grant programs, but I don't think it was

130
00:36:52.640 --> 00:37:08.079
Marian started. It was a different one. But anyway, yeah, that was so yeah, we must uh >> so yeah, I think we came up with a >> with the number. >> I think it'll be around this and >> and in fact, >> and it's it's well, there's several

131
00:37:08.079 --> 00:37:24.480
pieces to it. There's the preparation and then there's the actual survey and then there's the preparation for the CR, the meats and bounds, the appendix A stuff, the appendix B stuff, all of that. So, >> well, did they also

132
00:37:24.480 --> 00:37:40.720
um give an estimate for the BDR? >> No, we didn't ask them for that. >> Oh, okay. >> I don't know if they do those. >> I don't know. >> Usually, it's an environmental consultant of some sort. I've never used a surveyor to do that.

133
00:37:40.720 --> 00:37:59.440
>> Um, it's always been uh an environmental consulting firm of some sort like Dan's firm. >> Like Dan, >> they might do BDRs. I I'm not saying ask them, but you know, but I I know that Anna um we have her list. I trust it.

134
00:37:59.440 --> 00:38:20.640
So, but a surveyor has never done that. They do the survey, right? >> Okay. So, all right. So, the 23rd is our date. >> Yep. 7:00.

135
00:38:20.640 --> 00:38:37.440
>> Okay. And we'll just keep the same agenda. Um, CR discussion, just where we are with everything. Funding sources, where we are with everything. uh presentations which we might have all done by then. Um

136
00:38:37.440 --> 00:38:51.760
and when the next meeting is maybe a reorganization but that would probably be the meeting after that. >> Y >> so um so we'll keep that in mind for the one after the 27th.

137
00:38:51.760 --> 00:39:11.359
>> Okay. So are we ready to adjourn? >> I think we are. I move that we adjourn at 8:20 p.m. >> And you are give your name. >> Emily Fine moves to adjourn at 8:20 p.m.

138
00:39:11.359 --> 00:39:26.640
