[00:02:49]
THAT YOU CAN, THAT OTHER COMMUNITIES THROUGHOUT THIS COUNTRY HAVE DEALT WITH LARGE SCALE MALLS AND WHAT YOU CAN DO WITH THEM.
UM, TONIGHT THERE IS ONLY, MY LAST PART OF MY REPORT IS WE HAVE ONLY ONE RESOLUTION ON FOR TONIGHT, BUT THE APPLICANT HAS ASKED FOR IT TO BE TABLED.
IT WAS A RESOLUTION TO DENY, BUT THE APPLICANT HAS ASKED FOR IT TO BE TABLED.
WE ARE GONNA TABLE THAT TONIGHT.
SO WE'RE WITHDRAWING THAT RESOLUTION AND TABLING IT.
WE'RE JUST GONNA TABLE, WE WON'T WITHDRAW.
YOUR HONOR, TABLE THE RESOLUTION FOR TWO WEEKS.
AND THEN THE OTHER ONE IS, UH, COUNCILMAN FARRELL WAS JUST, COUNCILMAN FARRELL WAS JUST ASKING ME ABOUT IT.
WE ARE GONNA BE SCHEDULING A KICKOFF MEETING FOR THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN, HOPEFULLY THE LAST WEEK.
NOW, NEXT WEEK, THE FOLLOWING WEEK OF THE MONTH, WE'RE GONNA HAVE A KICKOFF MEETING FOR THE COMP PLAN.
THERE ALSO WAS, UM, YOU ALL RECEIVED, THERE WAS A REQUEST FROM THE COUNTY AND RFP FROM THE COUNTY FOR POSSIBLE GRANT, FOR COMPREHENSIVE PLAN UPDATES.
IT WAS COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AND SOLAR LAW.
YOU DO HAVE A NEW SOLAR LAW, BUT YOU MAY WANT TO SUBMIT ON IT.
DEPENDING UPON HOW MANY OTHER COMMUNITIES SUBMIT, YOU MAY OR MAY NOT GET IT.
IT WOULD BE A SMALL GRANT, PROBABLY IN THE 10 TO $15,000 RANGE.
THERE ARE GONNA BE FIVE COMMUNITIES AT ABOUT $15,000 EACH THAT WILL GET THIS GRANT.
IT'S MOSTLY FOR UPDATING YOUR SOLAR LAW, WHICH YOU'VE DONE ALREADY, BUT YOU CAN ALSO RELATE IT TO, UM, AGRICULTURAL THINGS IN YOUR, IN YOUR COMPREHENSIVE PLAN.
THE MONIES ARE GRANT MONIES FOR AGRICULTURAL PURPOSES.
SO, UM, SO WE'RE LOOKING FORWARD TO THAT.
AND THAT IS MY REPORT FOR THE EVENING.
UM, BUT PLEASE, UH, CONTACT ME ABOUT, WE HAVE A BUNCH OF REZONINGS THAT ARE COMING UP IN THE FUTURE.
I HAVE MAP GENERATED, ET CETERA.
BRIARWOOD GOES BACK MORE, MORE THAN I'VE BEEN HERE.
THEY'VE BEEN DEALING WITH BRIARWOOD FOR 30.
THERE'S, THERE'S A LOT OF INFORMATION ON WHAT HAS GONE ON WITH BRIARWOOD, PUD AND EXPANSION OF IT.
THERE'S ALWAYS QUESTIONS WHEN WE EXPLAIN THE BRIARWOOD PUD.
SO MAKE SURE YOU'RE UP TO DATE ON ALL THE INFORMATION.
PLEASE LET ME KNOW WHAT YOU NEED.
AND I SAID, THE OTHER, OTHER, UM, REZONING IS GONNA BE CONTROVERSIAL TOO, RIGHT THERE BEHIND THE, THE OLD WALMART SITE TO THE EAST AND BEHIND IT IS GOING TO BE A LARGE, UH, MULTI-FAMILY DEVELOPMENT, RE MULTI-FAMILY AND
[00:05:01]
SINGLE FAMILY.AND THEN JUST TO THE EAST OF THAT, YOU HAVE THIS PARKER ROAD PROJECT, WHICH IS ZONED CORRECTLY.
THEY'RE JUST ASKING FOR CLUSTER DEVELOPMENT.
SO A LOT OF ACTIVITY OVER ON THAT SIDE OF THE TOWN.
UH, DO THE BRIARWOOD, PUD, HOW MUCH ACREAGE IS THAT? DO YOU HAVE WHAT THE LAND AREA IS ON THAT? UM, THE OVERALL BRIARWOOD PUD NO.
THE, IT'S, IT'S THE ONE FOR REZONING FOR MULTIPLE.
I HAVE THE, UH, THE, THE FILE OVER THERE.
IT, IT IS A COUPLE HUNDRED ACRES, BUT THEY'RE TALKING ABOUT ONLY ADDING A SMALL PIECE OF UP TOWARDS SOUTHWESTERN WHERE THE ROAD GOES IN.
THAT GOES WHERE THE, THE UH, PROFESSIONAL PARK WHERE THE DAYCARE IS.
AND BEHIND THE OLD DRIVING RANGE.
THEY WANNA REZONE THAT AND PUT MULTI-FAMILY IS.
AND THERE'S SOME, IF YOU LOOK AT SOME OF THE OLD PLANS, TALK ABOUT THAT BEING SENIOR FACILITIES, ET CETERA THERE.
BUT OVER THE YEARS THAT BROADER PD HAS CHANGED.
SO, UM, WE'LL PROBABLY END UP HAVING TO ENTERTAIN IT, BUT THEN TALK ABOUT HOW, HOW IT FITS INTO THE AREA.
CAN YOU BACK UP ON, WHEN YOU SAID WALMART, I THINK YOU WERE REFERRING, YOU REFERRING TO OLD WALMART? THE OLD WALMART.
THE OLD, AND THERE'S ACTIVITY OVER THERE.
A TRAILER COMPANY IS GOING IN WHERE THE OLD PERKINS WAS ON THE ONE SIDE.
AND THERE'S PEOPLE TALKING TO US ABOUT WHAT'S GOING ON INSIDE THE WALMART BUILDING NOW CHANGES TO THAT.
SO THERE'S A LOT OF ACTIVITY IN THAT PART OF TOWN.
AND THEN IN TERMS OF THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN, CAN YOU GIVE US A LITTLE BIT, WHEN YOU SAY KICKOFF YEP.
WHAT EXACTLY KICKOFF IS MEETING WITH THE COMMITTEE? WE HAVE A COMMITTEE THAT'S FORMED WITH THE TWO VILLAGES, TOWN REPRESENTATIVES, ET CETERA, TO TALK ABOUT WHERE WE'RE GOING.
ONE OF THE BIG THINGS YOU DO AT THE FIRST MEETING, THE CONFERENCE PLAN IS SET UP A FIRST BIG PUBLIC MEETING.
WE, WE HAVE A HUGE PUBLIC INPUT PART OF THIS COMPREHENSIVE PLAN.
WE HIRED AN OUTSIDE EXPERT TO DO THAT, THAT'S GONNA RUN THIS PROCESS.
BUT WE GOTTA TALK ABOUT THAT BECAUSE WE'RE STILL IN THE, THE COVID ENVIRONMENT.
THESE PEOPLE ARE, ARE EXPERTS ON THE COVID SITUATION THEY GOT CERTIFIED ON AND HOW TO TRY TO HAVE MEETINGS DURING THIS, OR ARE WE STILL GONNA HAVE PROBLEMS WITH PUBLIC MEETINGS? YOU KNOW, WE'RE TALKING ABOUT DOING SURVEYS.
WE'RE TALKING ABOUT DOING A LOT OF OTHER THINGS TO TRY TO GET THE PUBLIC INVOLVED.
I THINK THAT'S GONNA BE A BIG PART OF THE FIRST MEETING, IS TALKING ABOUT HOW DO WE DO THIS PUBLIC OUTREACH.
THIS SITUATION,
AND CAN YOU GIVE US JUST A BACK, LIKE THE LAST SIX MONTHS? I KNOW IT BEEN OBVIOUSLY DIFFICULT TO MEET NEW THINGS, BUT HAS THERE BEEN PROGRESS AND HAVE YOU BEEN MEETING AND WHAT'S BEEN HAPPENING SINCE SAY, YOU KNOW, MARCH TO COVID? OF COURSE.
IN IMPACTED THE CONFERENCE, UM, UH, REVIEW TEAM, JUST LIKE IT DID EVERY OTHER FUNCTION.
THE ONE GOOD THING THAT, UM, WE WERE ABLE TO DO IS WE WERE ABLE TO STILL MAKE PROGRESS ON THE RFP.
SO THE SUBCOMMITTEE THAT HAD BEEN WORKING ON THAT, WHICH INCLUDED THE SUPERVISOR, OUR, UH, TOWN ATTORNEY, AND MYSELF AND SEVERAL OTHERS, UH, CHRIS HALL, BECAUSE THERE'S HICK THERE BECAUSE OF MONEY COMING FROM HIS DEPARTMENT.
WE HAD BEEN AT THE POINT WHEN COVID STARTED THAT THE RFP WAS PRETTY MUCH READY TO GO OUT.
SO DURING THE COVID TIME PERIOD, WE WERE STILL ABLE TO, UM, PUT THE FINISHING, UH, JUST SO TO SPEAK, ON THAT RFP.
THE RFP ENDED UP, IT WAS DELAYED BY ABOUT A MONTH, BUT IT DID GO OUT THE R YOU MIGHT REMEMBER THE RESOLUTIONS THAT WENT THROUGH.
UM, WE RECEIVED THE RESPONSES TO THAT RFP.
THEY WERE OPENED, THE SUBCOMMITTEE MET.
THEY, UH, REVIEWED ALL THOSE R FPS.
WE CAME BACK TO THE TOWN BOARD, MADE THE RECOMMENDATION THAT RESOLUTION WENT THROUGH.
SO WHILE MOST EVERYTHING ELSE WAS SOMEWHAT AT A STANDSTILL, WE WERE ABLE TO, UH, REALLY GET A LOT DONE IN TERMS OF THAT RP, WHICH AWARDED THE PLANNING, UH, CONTRACT.
AND SO THEN THE NEXT PHASE WAS ABLE TO START.
WE WERE ABLE TO, WHEN THINGS OPENED BACK UP, PRETTY MUCH JUST, YOU KNOW, WITHOUT A STEP, UM, GET GOING AGAIN, WHICH WAS, UH, AND WE HOPE GOOD FOR US, WE HOPE ALL THE TOWN BOARD WILL GET INVOLVED THROUGH THAT PROCESS AND WHATEVER.
'CAUSE I THINK BEING HERE FOR 25 YEARS, IT'S ONE OF THE BIGGEST THINGS YOU'RE GONNA DO.
A LOT HAS CHANGED IN THE LAST 10, 15 YEARS SINCE YOU DID THE LAST CONFERENCE PLAN, UPDATE.
A LOT OF REGIONAL PLANNING GOING ON, TYING IT TO THE TWO VILLAGES, MAKING SURE YOU'RE, YOU'RE, YOU'RE IN SYNC WITH THEM.
I MEAN, AND, AND ALL THE DEVELOPMENT PRESSURES AND CHANGES IN RETAIL AND MCKINLEY MALL AND, AND ALL THE THINGS THAT ARE GOING ON.
WE SEE A LOT OF PUSH FOR MULTI-FAMILY DEVELOPMENT.
IS THAT WHERE, HOW THE TOWN WANTS TO GO, ET CETERA.
SO I THINK THERE'S A LOT OF IMPORTANT THINGS THAT THE TOWN'S GOTTA MAKE A DECISION ON.
THAT'S THAT RFP THAT'S OUT FROM THE COUNTY, YOU REALIZE, I MEAN, WE KNOW ZONING MUST BE IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE CONFERENCE OF PLAN.
AND THEY ONE SHOULD HAVE AN UP TO DATE CONFERENCE PLAN.
A LOT OF THESE, LIKE THE NEW, UH, LEGISLATION FROM THE STATE FOR SOLAR AND LARGE WIND PROJECTS ARE BASICALLY HAVE TO BE BASED ON A CONFERENCE PLAN.
WHAT IS THE TOWN TRYING TO ACCOMPLISH, COMMUNITY TRYING TO ACCOMPLISH? I DON'T THINK WE HAVE A BIG PROBLEM WITH LARGE WIND PROJECTS.
WE HAD A SMALL ONE AND LARGE SOLAR PROJECT.
BUT WE DO HAVE THE IDEA THAT REGIONAL PLANS ARE LOOKING MORE AND MORE IN THE STATE AT YOUR COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AND SAYING, OKAY, WHAT ARE YOU TRYING TO ACCOMPLISH AS A COMMUNITY AND HOW DOES IT
[00:10:01]
FIT INTO THE REGION? AND HOW DOES IT FIT INTO THE STATE SCHOOLS? AND SO, UM, SO ALSO ALL YOUR GRANT MONEY GOES THROUGH THE REGIONAL ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT COUNCIL NOW, WHICH RELIES ON THE REGIONAL PLANS.AND ARE YOUR PLANS IN CONFORMANCE? SO DURING THE FIRST, JUST PRIOR TO, TO COVID FOR THE EIGHT MONTHS, UM, BEFORE THAT, SINCE THE, THE GROUP WAS PUT TOGETHER AND THE GROUP INCLUDES MEMBERS, UH, OF, YOU KNOW, ALL THE STAKEHOLDER GROUPS, THERE'S COMMUNITY MEMBERS.
THERE'S SOMEONE FROM PLANNING, OR TWO PEOPLE FROM PLANNING, TWO PEOPLE FROM ZONING FROM OUR PLANNING DEPARTMENT.
SOMEONE FROM THE VILLAGE OF BLAZEDALE HAS BEEN INVITED.
SO WE HAVE A, YOU KNOW, ALL, ALL OF THE STAKEHOLDERS ARE THERE BECAUSE THE IDEA WAS TO GET AS MUCH INPUT IN, IN AS POSSIBLE, WE WANTED TO MAKE SURE, ESPECIALLY THOSE ZONES BETWEEN THE TOWN AND THE VILLAGE ARE ADDRESSED.
UM, SO IT WAS GREAT THAT DURING THOSE FIRST EIGHT MONTHS, THERE WAS A LOT OF GOOD, HEALTHY DIALOGUE AMONG THOSE STAKEHOLDERS.
THEY, IN TURN, WENT BACK TO THEIR GROUPS THAT THEY REPRESENTED TO GET FEEDBACK.
THEY WERE COMMENTING ABOUT, UM, WHERE THEY FELT, UH, THINGS WERE GOOD IN THE, IN THE EXISTING COMPREHENSIVE PLAN WHERE THERE NEEDED TO BE THE MOST FOCUS, WHAT WERE SOME NEW ITEMS THAT NEEDED TO BE BROUGHT UP.
SO THERE WAS, UH, A LOT OF GREAT GROUNDWORK THAT TOOK PLACE DURING THOSE FIRST EIGHT MONTHS.
WHAT THAT IN TURN DID WAS REALLY, UH, HELPED DEFINE THE SCOPE FOR THE RFP.
AND LIKE I SAID, THE TIMING OF THAT PROBABLY COULDN'T HAVE BEEN ANY BETTER THAT THAT OCCURRED DURING COVID BECAUSE WE WERE ABLE TO STILL MAKE PROGRESS.
NOW WE'RE AT THE POINT WHERE WITH OUR PLANNER, WE'LL GO FORWARD WITH THAT INFORMATION.
AND THE NEXT PHASE, AS DREW TALKED ABOUT, WILL REALLY BE TO ADD THAT LAYER OF THE, UH, PUBLIC OUTREACH.
YOU MAY REMEMBER WHEN I WAS TALKING ABOUT THE RESPONSES TO THE RFP, THAT A BIG DECIDING FACTOR WAS THE FACT THAT WENDELL, UM, VERY CLEARLY, UH, ARTICULATED WHAT THAT PUBLIC OUTREACH PLAN WOULD BE.
AND THE GROUP, THE COMPREHENSIVE REVIEW TEAM HAD REALLY EMPHASIZED THAT THAT WAS CRUCIAL.
THAT THE PUBLIC OUTREACH, ESPECIALLY SINCE IT HAD BEEN SO MANY YEARS SINCE THE LAST COMPREHENSIVE PLAN, THAT WE NEEDED TO MAKE SURE THAT OUR, UM, MECHANISM FOR ENGAGING THE PUBLIC WAS MULTIFACETED AND WAS REALLY WELL THOUGHT OUT.
UM, AND THAT'S WHAT WE'RE DEPENDING ON WENDELL TO DO ANYTHING.
WE EVEN WENT OUT AND INTERNALLY AND FOUND SOMEONE THAT JUST FOCUSED ON THAT.
WE SAID, LOOK, YOUR JOB IS TO FOCUS ON MAKING SURE THE PUBLIC IS INVOLVED.
COMPLETE OUTREACH TO THEM KEEPING A TRACK OF ALL THIS.
BECAUSE WE DON'T WANNA BE ACCUSED OF THAT.
I MEAN, WE DEFINITELY WANT ALL THE PUBLIC'S INPUT ON THIS AND MAKE SURE FROM DAY ONE THROUGHOUT.
AND I THINK IT'S GREAT THAT WE HAVE TWO VILLAGES REPRESENTED ALSO.
WE'RE NOT DOING A PLAN FOR THE TWO VILLAGES, BUT THE VILLAGES ARE GONNA HAVE A BIG IMPACT ON WHAT HAPPENS IN THAT, IN THAT WE ALSO HAVE SOMEONE FROM THE CONSERVATION BOARD, FROM THE CHAMBER OF COMMERCE, FROM, I'M TRYING TO FORGETTING A VIEW.
UM, BUT IT'S, BUT IT'S A, A, YOU KNOW, PRETTY DIVERSE GROUP.
DO YOU HAVE ANY SENSE OF, I KNOW IT'S HARD TO PINPOINT EXACTLY, BUT GENERAL SENSE OF A TIMEFRAME OF YES.
KIND OF COMPLETION? SO PART OF WHEN WE WROTE THE RFP PART OF THAT WAS THE, THE TIMEFRAME WE WERE LOOKING TO HAVE THIS COMPLETED WITHIN ABOUT 18 MONTHS, UH, OR AROUND THE END OF 2021.
WE FELT THAT THAT WAS AN APPROPRIATE TIMEFRAME.
IT GAVE ENOUGH TIME FOR THIS PUBLIC OUTREACH PIECE.
WE KNEW THAT WE HAD ENOUGH OF THE SCOPE TO FIND FROM THE GROUP MEETING THE PREVIOUS EIGHT MONTHS.
SO I THINK WE'RE STILL CO EVEN WITH COVID.
UH, THAT WAS ONE OF THE CONCERNS.
WELL, THIS DELAY THAT PROCESS, BUT I THINK WE'RE PRETTY CONFIDENT THAT, THAT THIS PROCESS CAN BE ACCOMPLISHED STILL WITHIN THAT TIMEFRAME.
AND BY THE WAY, BY DOING A CONFERENCE PLAN, IF SOMETHING COMES OUT DURING THE CONFERENCE PLAN SIX MONTHS, EIGHT MONTHS FROM NOW, THE TOWN BOARD CAN ACT ON THOSE THINGS.
YOU DON'T HAVE TO WAIT TILL THE END OF THE PROCESS.
MATTER OF FACT, THAT'S ONE OF THE THINGS WE'RE TOP ABOUT IS IT'S GOTTA BE A COMMITMENT ON YOUR PART.
THE TOWN'S PART IS THAT CONFERENCE PLAN IS A FLUID THING.
YOU HAVE TO IMPLEMENT THE PLAN, SHOW EACH YEAR THAT YOU'RE DOING SOMETHING TO GET CLOSER TO BRINGING THE TOWN TOWARDS THAT VISION.
AND IF YOU DO THAT, YOU DON'T HAVE TO DO THESE MAJOR UPDATES.
YOU KEEP IT UP TO DATE, REALIZE YOU CAN DO A STUDY.
IF THE TOWN ENGINEER DID A STUDY AND YOU THOUGHT IT WAS IMPORTANT, YOU COULD APPEND THAT TO YOUR COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AND MAKE SOME CHANGES.
YOU REALIZE EVERYTHING YOU DO IS COMPREHENSIVE PLANNING.
I MEAN, IT IS LOOKING AT EVERYTHING IN THE TOWN.
I MEAN, SO THOSE THINGS CAN BE APPENDED TO YOUR COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AND SAY, OKAY, THIS IS PART OF A PLAN.
I THINK THAT'S IMPORTANT BECAUSE WE ALL KNOW HOPEFULLY MONIES ARE GONNA FUNNEL DOWN, HOPEFULLY TO HELP COMMUNITIES IF WE'RE EVEN GONNA SPEND THOSE MONIES, ET CETERA.
SO THAT WAS ALSO IDENTIFIED AS ONE OF THE MAJOR GOALS OF THIS PROJECT IS THAT WE WANTED IT TO REALLY BECOME A FLUID DOCUMENT, AS DREW WAS SAYING, AND THAT WE DON'T GO 10 OR 12 YEARS AGAIN IN THE FUTURE.
THAT WE HAVE MECHANISMS IN PLACE TO REVIEW IT ON A YEARLY BASIS.
SO WHEN WE WROTE THE RFP, WE ALSO PUT IN THERE THAT, UM, WHICHEVER PLANNER WAS AWARDED THE CONTRACT THAT WE WANTED THEIR PLAN TO ALSO INCLUDE, UM, YEARLY, UH, BENCHMARKS GOING FORWARD FOR THE FIRST, UH, NUMBER OF YEARS.
[00:15:01]
WE WANTED TO MAKE SURE THAT THERE WAS THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE MECHANISMS FOR ENFORCEMENT SO THAT THE INFORMATION, IT DOES NO GOOD IF IT DOESN'T GET OUT TO THE PEOPLE WHO NEED TO BE UTILIZING THIS DOCUMENT, YOUR PLANNING BOARD, YOUR ZONING BOARD, ANY OF THE OTHER ORGANIZATIONS.SO THAT IS ALSO WHAT WAS WRITTEN INTO THE RFP IN WHICH WENDELL RESPONDED ON.
SO THAT, GOING FORWARD, THIS DOCUMENT REALLY REFLECTS WHAT WE WANTED TO SAY.
AND THAT EVERYONE WHO UTILIZES AND REFERENCES THE DOCUMENT IS FOLLOWING THE INTENT THAT WAS LAID OUT.
DO ANY COMMUNITIES AT THIS POINT DO THAT ON SUCH A REGULAR BASIS WHERE THEY PAY AN ANNUAL RETAINER FEE FOR X AMOUNT SO THAT EACH AND EVERY YEAR THEY CAN AVOID THE BIG SIX FIGURE? UH, I'LL GIVE YOU THE EXAMPLE.
THERE'S SOME COMMUNITIES I WORK WITH THAT DON'T HAVE TO HIRE ANYBODY BECAUSE THEY SET UP A VERY GOOD, WHAT WE CALL CONFERENCE PLAN IMPLEMENTATION COMMITTEE.
WHICH BY THE WAY, THAT WAS WHAT THE CODE COMMITTEE USED TO BE, WAS THAT YOU HAVE A COMMITTEE.
THAT JOB IS TO MEET AT LEAST FOUR TIMES A YEAR, UPDATE THE TOWN BOARD PLAN FOR WHAT'S GONNA BE DONE THE FOLLOWING YEAR, ET CETERA.
AND KEEPING THAT PLAN UP TO DATE.
YOU HAVE A COMMITTEE, INTERNAL COMMITTEE DOING THAT.
AND IT SHOULD BE SET UP THAT WAY.
I MEAN, I ALWAYS SAY I'VE DONE, MY FIRM HAS DONE, AND I'VE DONE PROBABLY 50 PLUS COMPREHENSIVE PLANS AND WE VALUE THE FACT THAT WE GET AWARDS ON IMPLEMENTATION AND NOT ON THE PLAN ITSELF.
IT'S ONLY AS GOOD AS WHAT HAPPENS WITH THAT PLAN, HOW IT'S DEALT WITH.
THAT'S ONE OF THE COMPLAINTS HAVE BEEN, AND I I I'VE BEEN HERE FOR IS THE COMPLAINTS SAID THAT WE DON'T USE THE CONFERENCE PLAN AS MUCH, AS MUCH AS WE SHOULD.
IT SHOULD BE THE VISION FOR THE TOWN.
HOPEFULLY WE DO A GOOD ENOUGH JOB BECAUSE YOU ALL HAVE TO ADOPT THAT PLAN.
WE WOULD LIKE TO SEE YOU ADOPTED SOME OF THE COMMUNITIES DON'T ADOPT THEIR PLANS ANYMORE.
BUT WE WOULD LOVE TO SEE YOU ADOPT A PLAN.
SHOW THAT THE WHOLE TOWN BOARD AGREES WITH THIS DOCUMENT AND WE'RE MOVING FORWARD.
AND THEN WE PUT, ONE OF THE TOOLS WE PUT IN THERE IS WE TOOK A TOOLBOX OF, SOMETIMES CONFERENCE LAND GETS TOO STUCK ON ONE ANSWER FOR SOMETHING.
THERE SHOULD BE MULTIPLE ANSWERS FOR SOMETHING.
AND THEN YOU CHOOSE AS A TOWN BOARD WHEN IT'S APPROPRIATE.
'CAUSE RIGHT NOW IT MAY BE APPROPRIATE.
SOMETHING ELSE MAY BE APPROPRIATE FOUR OR FIVE YEARS FROM NOW.
SO IT'S PUTTING THAT TOOLBOX OF THINGS THAT YOU CAN DO AND LOOK AT AND BE ABLE TO RESPOND TO THINGS THAT COULD HAPPEN IN YOUR COMMUNITY.
SO A TOWN SETS UP THAT COMMITTEE AND THEY'RE ACTIVE, THEY MEET ON ANOTHER BASIS.
YOU KNOW, ON AN ONGOING, IS THERE EVER A NEED FOR AN UPDATED COMPREHENSIVE PLAN THAT'S UP TO THE, UP TO THAT COMMITTEE IF THEY THINK SOMETHING HAS HAPPENED ENOUGH IN THE COMMUNITY THAT WOULD CAUSE THAT YOU DON'T HAVE TO LOOK VERY FAR TO BUILD.
BUILD A HAMBURG ADOPTED A PLAN A FEW YEARS AGO AND HAVE A VERY ACTIVE COMMITTEE OF PEOPLE WHO BASICALLY WORK ON IT.
THEY DON'T, THEY DON'T LOOK OUTSIDE.
THEY HAVE THAT COMMITTEE THAT WORKED ON IT AND REPORT TO THE TOWN BOARD DIRECTLY THROUGH LAURA HACKER THO.
SO THEY MOVE FORWARD ON THEIR PLAN.
SO YOU DON'T HAVE TO LOOK FAR TO SEE SOMEONE WHO'S DONE IT WELL.
AND THE TOWN DID IT WELL WHEN THEY FIRST DID IT, WE HAD A CONFERENCE PLAN COMMITTEE, BUT THE CLIENT JUST DIED OFF AND TURNED INTO A CODE REVIEW COMMITTEE BECAUSE WE GOT SO BOGGED DOWN WITH ALL THE CODE REVISIONS THAT PEOPLE NEEDED IN THE TOWN THAT WE GOT BOGGED DOWN THOSE THINGS AND NOW FOCUSED ON FORWARD THINKING OVERVIEW, RESPONDS TO STUFF AND WE DON'T LOOK AHEAD FORWARD, NOT AHEAD TO, UH, JUST FOR THE POINT OF INFORMATION.
THE LAST, UH, COMPREHENSIVE PLAN WAS ADOPTED IN OH SEVEN, IS THAT RIGHT? YEP.
IT FINISHED IN OH FIVE, BUT ADOPTED IN OH SEVEN, FINISHED ABOUT OH FIVE.
THEN WE WENT TO 10 YEARS AND THEY WENT TO ADOPT IT THEN THEY ADOPTED IN 2007.
BUT, SO, WELL I'M JUST THINKING, I MEAN, YOU CAN BE SAVING PROBABLY 10 TO 15,000 A YEAR IF YOU HAVE AN ACTIVE COMMITTEE ON A REGULAR ONGOING BASIS.
KEEP IT UP TO DATE AND THE COMMITTEE UNDERSTANDS IT.
WE WORKED ON THIS FOR TWO YEARS.
EVERY MEETING WE TALKED ABOUT IS HAVE A GREAT IMPLEMENTATION PLAN THAT YOU CAN DO ON YOUR OWN AND KEEP UP TO DATE.
AND THAT WAS ONE OF THE CHARGES THAT, LOOK, YOU DON'T WANNA HAVE TO DO THIS.
I MEAN THAT HUGE, THAT WAS, THAT WAS WRITTEN RIGHT INTO THE RFP, THAT THAT WAS PART OF THE INTENT.
THAT HOW EVERYTHING IS BEING DONE.
IT'S BEING DONE WITH AN I FOR JUST THAT, SETTING IT UP SO THAT WE CAN DO THIS REGULARLY EACH YEAR AND AVOID THIS TYPE OF PROCESS IN THE FUTURE.
AND ALSO, AGAIN, THAT'S AN ACTUAL, UM, DOCUMENT THAT CAN BE USED THAT IS, THAT IS FLUID AND HAS MEANING TO ALL OF THE STAKEHOLDERS THAT ARE INVOLVED.
UM, YOU KNOW, THE IDEA IS THAT WE DON'T HAVE TO GO BACK AND REZONE OR ASK FOR VARIANCES.
WE WANNA HAVE A DOCUMENT THAT THAT REALLY IS, UM, A GOOD TOOL, UH, FOR ALL OF, YOU KNOW, WHETHER IT'S ZONING PLANNING AND IT CAN AVOID SOME OF THE MAYBE CONFLICTS THAT HAVE, THAT HAVE, UM, COME UP IN RECENT, RECENT YEARS.
AND I'LL SAY ONE FINAL THING ABOUT A COMP PLAN.
IT'S ANYTHING YOU WANT IT TO BE.
THE STATE ENABLING LEGISLATION IS VERY LOOSE ON WHAT NEEDS TO BE INCLUDED IN A CONFERENCE PLAN.
YOU MAKE IT AND TARGET ON THE THINGS.
[00:20:01]
YEAR LOOKING AT WHAT ARE THE THINGS YOU WANT TO TARGET ON.'CAUSE SOMETIMES THE PLANS ARE GENERIC IN NATURE AND THEY DON'T PROVIDE THE DIRECTION.
YOU HAVE SOME VERY HOT TOPIC AREAS THAT YOU WANT SPECIFIC DIRECTION ON.
LOOKING AT THE TOWN HOLISTICALLY.
YOU CAN'T, YOU CAN'T DO IT IN A VACUUM.
BUT FOCUS ON THOSE THINGS THAT ARE IMPORTANT TO THE COMMUNITY.
ONE OF THE OTHER, THEY COULD BECOME TOO GENERIC.
ONES OF THE 70 EIGHTS WERE TOO GENERIC.
ANOTHER KEY POINT WAS AT THE GROUP AS A, AS A WHOLE, AFTER, YOU KNOW, ALMOST A YEAR OF THESE CONVERSATIONS, UM, IRON AGREEMENT TOO, THAT WHAT WE WANT TO DO IS, IS NOT, IS TO IDENTIFY WHAT ARE SOME OF THE CHARACTERISTICS AND, AND PROBLEMATIC SITUATIONS THAT EXIST SO THAT WE CAN BUILD TOWARDS OUR STRENGTHS AND ALSO MAKE SURE THAT WE MAKE ADJUSTMENTS TO AVOID, UM, MISTAKES IN PROBLEMATIC AREAS.
THAT'S WHY YOU HEAR ME TALK A LOT ABOUT DRAINAGE AND ABOUT OTHER INFRASTRUCTURE ISSUES.
YOU KNOW, WE NEED TO KNOW WHAT THOSE INFRASTRUCTURE ISSUES ARE.
AND TO A CERTAIN EXTENT, WE EITHER NEED TO HAVE A PLAN, STRATEGIC PLAN FOR REMEDYING THOSE SITUATIONS.
BUT ALSO AT THE SAME TIME, WE NEED TO TAKE A LOOK AT OUR COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AND FIGURE OUT HOW CAN WE, LIKE I SAID, BUILD TO THE STRENGTHS, BUT ALSO MAYBE MAKE ADJUSTMENTS IF WE KNOW AN AREA IS GOING TO ENCOUNTER DIFFICULTIES WITH DRAINAGE OR WITH THE WATER CAPACITY OR WHATEVER THE ISSUE MIGHT BE.
LET'S MAKE SURE THAT WE'RE MAKING ADJUSTMENTS SO THAT WE DON'T LIKE WE'RE, HAVE PROBLEMS WE'RE ADDRESSING NOW THAT WE DON'T INADVERTENTLY ALLOW TOMORROW'S PROBLEMS TO, UM, ARISE.
YOU FOR THAT TIME SUPERVISOR, DO YOU ME TO STICK AROUND FOR THE REGULAR MEETING? I DON'T THINK SO, UNLESS YOU, UNLESS YOU WANT TO
WELL HAVE A GOOD EVENING PLEASE.
PLEASE REACH OUT TO ME BY EMAIL OR WHATEVER.
YOU HAVE A LOT OF THINGS COMING TO YOU OVER THE NEXT COUPLE MONTHS.
I HAVE A LOT OF INFORMATION TO MAKE A SHARE, WHICH THE TOWN DREW.
ONE THING, IF, IF YOU HAVE, UH, I KNOW WE'RE GONNA MEET ON THE 23RD IF YOU HAVE SOME SUGGESTIONS REGARDING THE BALL.
IN TERMS OF CREATIVE ZONING, MIXED USE, ZONING CONCEPTS, COULD YOU EMAIL THOSE TO ME? DO YOU MIND DOING THAT? I HAVE A NICE LITTLE HANDOUT FOR, SO THANK YOU.
I THINK THAT'S A TOOL THAT MAY BE VERY APPROPRIATE.
UM, NOW ANYBODY ELSE WANT TO TALK ABOUT SOME STUFF ON THAT HAS NOT OUT TO THE AGENDA? ANYTHING ELSE FOLKS? I KNOW WE TABLED SOMETHING FROM THE LAST MEETING REGARDING, UH, THE REPORTING ON THE WORKDAY.
DID I SEE THAT ON HERE? DID THAT GET UPDATED? I JUST DON'T WANT IT TO BE SOMETHING.
YOU ADJUSTED, YOU HAD MADE SOME ADJUSTMENTS ON THAT.
AND THAT WAS SOMETHING, UM, I WAS ACTUALLY DISCUSSING WITH ALYSSA.
I KNOW THAT SHE'S OUT, SO I THINK THAT'S SOMETHING I'LL PROBABLY BE REVISITED.
UM, PART OF IT WAS ME WORKING ON THE, UM, RETURNING YOU WANT, YOU WANT.
YOU WANNA REVISIT TWO WEEKS FROM NOW THEN? YEAH, PUT IT ON FOR THE 29TH, THE 28TH.
UM, ALRIGHT, WELL LET'S GO THROUGH, LET'S GO THROUGH THE AGENDA THEN WE GET THROUGH IT.
THE ONLY OTHER THING WE MENTIONED WHEN WE MET PREVIOUSLY, AND MAYBE JUST BEFORE WE GET ON TO THE AGENDA, IS THAT TED WAS GOING TO GIVE US AN UPDATE ON THE PROJECT WITH ORCHARD PARK THAT EVENING.
WELL, I DIDN'T KNOW HE WAS GONNA DO THAT.
WELL, WE TALKED, ACTUALLY WE HAD TALKED THE LAST TIME WE JUST SAID THAT HE WOULD GIVE US A QUICK UPDATE ON WHAT WAS HAPPENING.
DID YOU MOVE THAT TOO AHEAD? NO, FINE.
THAT YOU SAID YOU'D JUST GIVE US AN UPDATE THAT THE PROJECT WITH ORCHARD PARK, THE LETTER THAT WE HAD BRENNAN? YES.
THE, YOU KNOW, THE BACK HALF OF BRENNER IS OWNED BY ORCHARD PARK.
IT'S CURRENTLY BEING WORKED ON AND WE'RE GONNA HAVE A CONTRACTOR THAT'S DOING THAT WORK DUE TO THE FUND HALF WAS OWNED BY HIM.
IS THERE A TIMEFRAME ON THAT? UH, THEY BROKE GROUND.
UM, BUT IT'LL BE BY, UH, END OF NOVEMBER.
ANYTHING ELSE? THAT'S THE LAST THING THEY DO, BY THE WAY.
WHAT'S THE COST? UH, IT IS, UH, BUT THE TERMS OF THIS DEAL THAT ER IS TALKING ABOUT ARE PRETTY FAVORABLE.
I MEAN, FOR US TO DO IT JOINTLY WITH THEM.
BUT THE CONTRACTORS ALREADY THERE.
RIGHT? THEY'RE DOING COMPLETE RECONSTRUCTION
[00:25:01]
OF THE ORCHARD PARK SESSION INCLUSIVE, UM MM-HMMUH, DRAINAGE, UH, I DON'T KNOW WHY, BUT THE ACTUAL, THE HAMBURG SECTION DRAINAGE IS UH, OKAY.
UM, AND SO WE'LL ONLY BE DOING A, UH, A MILL AND FILL MM-HMM
CONSISTENT WITH THE, UM, NO, THE ORCHARD PARK SPECIAL.
WAIT, YOU, YOU, YOU, YOU AVOID UH, RESET UP COSTS SINCE THE CONTRACTOR'S ALREADY THERE AND OTHER COSTS IT WILL BE SEAMLESS.
LITERALLY IT WOULD BE SEAMLESS, WHICH YOU IDEALLY YOU DON'T WANT TO HAVE A COLD SEAT.
UH, ALRIGHT, WELL LET ME ASK YOU THIS TOO.
YOU KNOW, NOW THAT I, I SENT YOU AN EMAIL ABOUT THIS.
UH, WHAT, IF ANYTHING, WHAT'S THE PROGRESS REPORT YOU CAN GIVE US ON DOLPHIN THE SIDEWALK? ANYTHING GOING ON THERE? WELL, I SAW IT JEN.
I, I'M SORRY TO GET BACK TO YOU SOONER.
YOU KNOW, IT'S 135, THE LINEAR FEET OF, OF SIDEWALK.
I TALKED TO DARREN TODAY AND THIS IS THE ROCK AND THE HARD PLACE, UH, THAT I HAVE AUSTIN.
AND THAT IS, I WANNA SATISFY THE RESIDENTS THAT LIVE OVER THERE.
AND DARREN'S RESPONSE IS, WHAT DO YOU NOT WANT TO DO THAT'S ALREADY ON THE DOCKET TO DO.
UM, SO THAT'S THE ROCK AND THE HARD PLACE THAT, UM, WE HAVE TO ACTUALLY BATTLE AGAINST.
I CAN TELL YOU WE CANNOT BE DOING IT WITHIN THE NEXT MONTH.
UM, IF YOU'D LIKE, WE REVISIT THIS, YOU KNOW, LIKE A MONTH FROM NOW TO SEE WHERE WE ARE.
'CAUSE RIGHT NOW WE'RE PAVING SO I NOT, UH, WE WOULD, WE WOULD DIVIDE AND WE WOULD, UNFORTUNATELY WE WOULD NOT.
WHAT, UH, WELL LET ME ASK YOU THIS THEN.
A COUPLE AS THOSE WE'RE ON THE TOPIC, HOW LATE CAN WE GO INTO THE FALL SEASON IN TERMS OF LAYING A SIDEWALK DOING ALL THE WORK THAT'S INVOLVED SOMETIME IN OCTOBER? IS THAT FEASIBLE OR NOT? WELL, UM, FOR CONCRETE SPECIFICALLY, I DON'T KNOW, BUT UH, FOR ASPHALT, YOU KNOW, WE HAVE A GOOD SOLID 68 WEEKS LEFT FOR ASPHALT.
OF COURSE WE'RE NOT DOING THAT SIDEWALK.
I DON'T KNOW WHAT THE TEMPERATURE SPECS ARE.
I THINK YOU CAN ALSO POUR CONCRETE IN THE DEAD OF WINTER, FRANKLY.
WHAT DO YOU THINK CAM, UH, ON THE DOLPHIN PROJECT? I KNOW YOU, YOU PUT OUT THE SPECS, UH, THREE WEEKS AGO.
WHAT CAN, HOW LATE CAN YOU DO THE CEMENT, DO YOU KNOW? UM, UNFORTUNATELY I DON'T KNOW THAT THE TEMPERATURE EITHER OFF THE TOP OF MY HEAD.
I FIND THAT OUT TOMORROW PRETTY QUICKLY.
AND THEN OF COURSE WE ROLL THE DICE ON HOW SOON WE HIT THAT WEATHER AS FAR AS, UH, WESTERN ME WEATHER.
OR YOU CAN MAKE, DO FOUNDATIONS IN THAT WINTER.
KEN IS RIGHT, THERE IS AN ADDITIVE.
YOU CAN PUT IT CONCRETE TO DO IT DURING COLDER WEATHER.
THERE IS A LIMIT ON THAT AS WELL.
IT JUST, IT TAKES YOUR TEMPERATURE DOWN A LITTLE BIT.
I MEAN WE, OUR, OUR PREFERENCE IS NOT TO BE DOING THAT WORK.
IF ANYONE HAS A SUGGESTION REGARDING OUR, OUR ROCK IN A HARD PLACE? WELL, NO, NO.
JUST BECAUSE WE PROMISED THAT WE'D GET IT DONE THIS YEAR.
SO I JUST WANT TO SEE HOW WE STAND UP.
I HAD A QUICK QUESTION FOR TED.
IF YOU, ON THE GARBAGE TRUCKS, UH, DURING THE PRESENTATION ON SATURDAY, YOU TALKED A LITTLE BIT ABOUT HOW, UH, THEY BECOME A BIT OF AN ISSUE IN TERMS OF ROAD DETERIORATION.
SO, UH, AS AN EXAMPLE OF VILLAGE OF HAMBURG, THEY DON'T USE WASTE MANAGE OF MODERN.
UH, IS THERE, IS THE DETERIORATION OF THOSE ROADS ANY LESS, UH, BECAUSE OF THAT? WELL, THE TWO LEVEL ONE THINGS FOR ROAD DETERIORATION ARE, IS VOLUME OF TRAFFIC AND THE WEIGHT OF THE TRAFFIC.
THOSE ARE THE TWO NUMBER ONE THINGS YOU HAVE TO CONSIDER YOURSELF RELATIVE FOR GROWTH AS FAR AS YOU KNOW, WHAT THE VILLAGE IS DEALING WITH.
YOU KNOW, THAT'S, THAT'S A TOUGH ONE TO CALL, BUT THE FUNDAMENTAL, IF YOU CAN LIMIT, I'VE GONE TO THE CONFERENCES, I'VE BEEN WITH MY PEERS, YOU KNOW, THEY ALLUDE TO GARBAGE TRUCKS AS BEING A FUNDAMENTAL ISSUE TO THE DETRIMENT OF PAVING.
THE BOARD MAY WANT TO CONSIDER, UM, YOU KNOW, GOING THE ROUTE OF, OF ONE, UH, TRASH COMPANY AND BIDDING THAT OUT.
UH, 'CAUSE THERE CERTAINLY IS, UH, YOU KNOW, BY RESIDENT IS HOW THE TRASH IS PICKED UP.
SO YOU CAN HAVE TWO SHIPS PASSING IN THE NIGHT, UH, GARBAGE TRUCKS GOING DOWN THE SAME ROAD.
UH, WHICH INCREASES, YOU KNOW, NOT ONLY THE DISTRESS ON THE ROAD ITSELF, BUT FRANKLY NO ONE WANTS TO SEE A GARBAGE TRUCK.
AND, UH, THAT MAY BE SOMETHING I THINK THE BOARD COULD CONSIDER AND, UH, UH, THERE COULD ACTUALLY BE A COST SAVINGS TO, UM,
[00:30:01]
THOSE WHO HAVE TO STILL NEGOTIATE THE PRICE WITH THAT CONTRACTOR.IS IT, DO YOU HAVE TO HAVE APPROVAL, WALT? DO YOU KNOW, AS FAR AS IS MODERN GIVEN PERMISSION TO PROVIDE THE SERVICE AS IS WASTE MANAGEMENT OR GET ANY TRUCK JUST PULL UP INTO AMBER? NO PULL ABOUT, I WANNA SAY ABOUT 10 YEARS AGO THERE, BECAUSE THERE WASN'T THERE A REFER TOWN? THERE WAS A REFER, THERE WAS A REFEREND.
AND THEY BOTH HAVE CONTRACTS TO PICK UP AVERAGE WITHIN THE TOWN, AND THAT'S PURSUANT TO THE REFERENDUM.
THEY BOTH HAVE THE CONTRACTUAL RIGHTS, JUST THOSE TWO RESIDENTS CONTRACT.
THE THIRD ONE DROPPED OUT, DROPPED OUT BECAUSE THEY DIDN'T HAVE ENOUGH BUSINESS.
WHAT'S ENTAILED IN THAT REFERENDUM? ARE THE PRICING TERMS SPELLED OUT OR THEY WERE, SO MAYBE THAT'S SOMETHING TO REVISIT AND, UH, YOU KNOW, LOW BID WINS.
WELL, WE, WE ARE, UM, WE, MICHELLE FROM OUR OFFICE HAS BEEN WORKING ON A LOT OF RESEARCH TO GET THAT.
I KNOW MIKE'S TALKED ABOUT, UH, THIS IN THE PAST AS WELL, SO WE'RE TRYING TO PUT ALL, ALL THE DATA TOGETHER.
BUT WHEN YOU MENTIONED THAT IT, IT JUST KIND OF REINFORCED AN ADDITIONAL, UH, BENEFIT THAT WE MIGHT ADD TO THE, THE LIST OF BENEFITS, UH, IN TERMS OF THAT YEAH, DEFINITELY SERVICE AND FIND OUT MOST PRECISELY.
BUT I KNOW GENERALLY SPEAKING, SO WHEN YOU'RE AT THE CONFERENCES, THE GOAL OF SAVING MONEY FOR TOWNS AND MUNICIPALITIES IS THE FACT OF HAVING A CONSOLIDATED PROVIDER INSTEAD OF MULTIPLE PROVIDERS.
IS THAT WHAT YOU'RE HEARING? YEAH, I MEAN I'VE DEFINITELY HEARD THAT AND IT HAS MULTIPLE BENEFITS, LIKE YOU SAID, THE DIRECT COST OF THE ROADS ITSELF.
UH, MAYBE IT SAVES TAXPAYERS MONEY, THE RESIDENTS WHO GET A BETTER FAVORABLE RATE AS WELL AS, UH, YOU KNOW, THE AESTHETIC VALUE OF LESS GARBAGE TRUCKS.
NOT TO GET TOO FAR INTO THE TOPIC BECAUSE WE'RE NOT REALLY THERE, RIGHT? NO, UH, I BELIEVE YOU'D HAVE TO HAVE A REFERENDUM AND, AND FORM A DISTRICT.
IT'D BE ON THE TEXTBOOK AND DO IT ON THE TEXTBOOK.
BUT I THINK YOU WOULD SEE A MONSTER SAVINGS FOR ALL RESIDENTS THAT PAY MY, WE PAID 200 AND SOMETHING THOUSAND DOLLARS A YEAR, UH, IN THE BEGINNING OF THE YEAR TO THEM.
UH, LIKE IN THE VILLAGE OF BLA STUFF, YOU GET TO PUT OUT ONE BIG ITEM EVERY MONDAY.
AND THE GARBAGE DESIGN TAX ROLLS AND TAKE IT WORKED OUT.
IT SAYS $140 PER UNIT FOR THE VILLAGE FOR THE YEAR.
AND WHAT DO YOU PAY IN TOWN TAKE? WE PAY 180,000 JUST FOR THE SPRING AND FALL TO, THAT'S, THAT'S JUST A LARGE RIGHT.
IT'S A LARGE, THAT'S INCLUDED IN THE GARBAGE.
SO, BUT ANYWAY, NOT TO GET TOO FAR INTO IT.
ANYTHING ELSE OFF THE AGENDA? AND THEN WE'LL GET INTO IT.
UH, OBVIOUSLY KAREN, THAT'S THE, THE BOARD MINUTES, THE FIRST TIME.
NUMBER FOUR IS THE PAF, UH, FOR YOUTH AND RECREATION.
THESE ARE THE TERMINATION DATES, UH, FOR THE KIDS THAT ARE LEAVING THE PROGRAM, THE SUMMER KIDS, ANYTHING ON THAT? OKAY.
UH, NUMBER FIVE IS THE B AND G GUYS.
UH, PAT, THESE GENTLEMEN FROM LINE, UH, UH, LINE NINE DOWN.
THESE ARE ALL OF THE FULL-TIME EMPLOYEES, UH, THAT YOU'RE REFERRING TO.
UH, AND THEN YOU'VE GOT TERMINATION DATES AND START DATES FOR THE SAME FOLKS.
AM I CORRECT? IN OTHER WORDS, THAT'S FOR THE TRANSFER TO THE NIKE BASIC I SEASON.
FROM OTHER, FROM OTHER ASSIGNMENTS.
IS THAT OKAY EVERYBODY? MM-HMM
NUMBER FIVE IS TO GIVE RAY PAWLOWSKI A CARRYOVER OF 60 HOURS OF VACATION, UH, FROM 2020 TO 2021.
PAT, WE DON'T REALLY NEED A A, A RESOLUTION FOR THIS, BUT AS LONG AS IT'S HERE, I'M GONNA JUST QUOTE YOU.
THIS ISN'T SECTION 6.2 0.3 SUB C OF THE COLLECTIVE BARGAINING AGREEMENT SAYS ALL VACATIONS SHALL BE TAKEN IN THE YEAR DURING WHICH THE EMPLOYEE BECOMES ENTITLED THERE TO, AND NO PART OF SUCH VACATION SHALL BE CARRIED OVER FROM YEAR TO YEAR.
UNLESS, UNLESS THE PRESSURE OF WORK IN A PARTICULAR DEPARTMENT MAKES IT IMPOSSIBLE FOR THE SUPERINTENDENT TO GRANT A VACATION PERIOD FOR THAT YEAR.
IN SUCH CASES, THE VACATION PERIOD FOR THAT YEAR OR ANY UNUSED PORTION THEREOF MAY BE ADDED TO THE VACATION TO WHICH THE EMPLOYEE IS ENTITLED DURING THE FOLLOWING YEAR.
SO IF YOU MAKE THE DETERMINATION THAT IT, IT'S NOT GONNA HURT OPERATIONS TO LET, OR WILL THE EMPLOYEE CARRY IT OVER OR EMERGENCIES
[00:35:01]
OR SUCH THAT YOU CAN'T LET HIM OR HER TAKE THE VACATION, LET'S SAY IN 2020, WE'LL LET HIM EXTEND FIVE, SIX DAYS, WHATEVER IT IS, INTO THE NEW YEAR, THEN THAT'S, THAT'S ENTIRELY UP TO YOU.NOW YOU RECOMMEND THAT WE DO THIS? YES.
I DON'T KNOW THAT WE WANT A RESOLUTION BECAUSE I DON'T WANT EMPLOYEES COMING TO THE BOARD CONTRARY TO THE WISHES OF A GIVEN DEPARTMENT.
JIM, I THINK NORMALLY IN DECEMBER IT'S BEEN OUR PROCEDURE IN THE PAST THAT IF ANY EMPLOYEE WISHES TO CARRY IT FORWARD, WE DO REQUIRE A BOARD RESOLUTION.
IT SHOULDN'T BE WITH THE BLUE COLLAR BARGAINING UNITS.
'CAUSE THIS IS, UH, THE SECTION I'M READING TO YOU COMES RIGHT OUT OF THAT CONTRACT.
SO JUST FROM A, UH, HR PERSPECTIVE THEN, UM, SO I CAN MAKE SURE THIS IS CLEAR FOR ALYSSA AS WELL, UM, FOR BLUE COLLAR, IS THAT HOW YOU WOULD LIKE IT TO, TO PROCEED THAT HOW ITS OR FOR WHAT ABOUT FOR WHITE COLLAR MANAGERIAL? THAT, THAT'S DIFFERENT.
THE PBA, THE COMMAND, THIS IS THE ONLY ONE THAT I, I GOT A CHANCE AND I DIDN'T LOOK AT THE, UH, PBA, BUT I DID LOOK AT THE WHITE COLLAR TOO TODAY.
SO WE MIGHT, I KNOW THIS IS KIND OF AN ODD TIME OF YEAR FOR THIS TO HAPPEN, BUT RIGHT.
BECAUSE IT'S A SIGNIFICANT NUMBER OF HOURS.
SO, UM, IF THAT COULD BE SOMETHING PERHAPS THE HR DEPARTMENT RECEIVES INSTRUCTION ON YEAH.
BEFORE, PROBABLY BEFORE, I WOULD SAY THE END OF NOVEMBER BECAUSE THAT'S WHEN WE USUALLY START SEEING, WE GIVE THEM, WE ALWAYS GET 'EM IN DECEMBER.
BUT I, YOU KNOW, DEFER TO PAT.
IF YOU SAY IT'S OKAY, YOU, YOU, YOU, UH, YOU WOULD YOU WANT 'EM TO BE ABLE TO USE IT IN 21 INSTEAD OF 20? I'M NOT GONNA ARGUE WITH YOU.
WELL, IT'S JUST EXTENUATING CIRCUMSTANCES BECAUSE OF THE COVID CRISIS.
HE ALSO HAD THE EXTRA TIME FROM HIS, UH, SETTLEMENT YEAH.
I WAS JUST WONDERING WHY IS IT, ISN'T THAT SOMETHING THAT WE'D NORMALLY DO AT THE END OF THE YEAR WHEN WE KNOW THE FULL CALENDAR IS COMPLETED AS OPPOSED TO DOING IT NOW WHEN WE'RE NOT THROUGH THE, THE YEAR YET, BUT YEAH, SO MUCH TIME, SEAN, YOU HAVE TO BE OFF FROM HERE ALL THE WAY AT THE END OF THE YEAR.
AND SO WE'RE, WE'RE DRAIN THESE NOW.
SO IF YOU DIDN'T ALLOW HIM, IF YOU DIDN'T TELL HIM RIGHT NOW, HE WOULD NEED TO LIKE START USING THAT TIME.
SO INSTEAD OF LIKE NORMALLY IN DECEMBER, PEOPLE ASK SURE.
AND IT'S LIKE IF YOU DO THAT AND THEN THEY CAN'T, THEY LOSE IT.
UH OH KAREN, YOU WANT TO ADD SOME PEOPLE TO THE COALITION, RIGHT? YES.
I NOW SEAN, I BELIEVE, UH, THAT THE PLEASANT VIEW ESTATES THAT DEVELOPER WANTED TO WITHDRAW HIS PROJECT.
SO IN OTHER WORDS, WE WON'T TABLE A MOTION, WE'LL MAKE A MOTION TO WITHDRAW THIS.
CORRECT? UH, BECAUSE SOMETIME IN THE SPRING HE'LL PAY THE FEES AND DO THE WORK.
IT'S LATE IN THE SEASON FOR IT, GUESS? YES.
UH, THIS IS THE THURSTON PROJECT, UH, CAMMY, THIS IS THE, UH, THE BID, UH, TO PUT IT TO SEEK PROPOSALS, WHICH WOULD BE DUE IN YOUR OFFICE BY THE 2ND OF OCTOBER.
AND YOU WOULD OPEN 'EM THEN, RIGHT? DUE TO THE CLERKS DOCUMENT? UH, THE CLERKS, I'M SORRY.
BUT YOU WOULD THEN OPEN 'EM ON THAT DATE, RIGHT.
AND THEN, UH, PICK THE, UH, LOWEST RESPONSIBLE PROPOSAL.
AND WHAT WOULD THEY START, WOULD YOU ANTICIPATE? UM, IT TAKES AT LEAST A FEW DAYS TO GET, UM, FUNDS AND INSURANCE IN PLACE.
UH, BUT THEY WON'T HAVE A LOT OF COMPROMISE OR ANYTHING TO REVIEW, SO I'M HOPING THAT WE MOVE RATHER QUICKLY.
UH, I'D LOVE TO SAY A WEEK, BUT SAFELY THE SECOND OR THIRD WEEK OF OCTOBER YOU THINK? YEAH.
SO, AND THEN ONCE THEY START, UH, HOW LONG WOULD YOU ANTICIPATE THE PROJECT WILL TAKE THOUGH? I WOULDN'T THINK TOO LONG.
I BELIEVE WE ARE GIVING 30 DAYS, UM MM-HMM
BUT THAT'S ALSO TO ALLOW BRAS TO GROW, WHICH HAVE VERY LITTLE CONTROL OVER.
UM, SO I I WOULD THINK, UH, TWO WEEKS.
UH, IF THEY CAN WORK A SOLID TWO THAT, UH, GET THE, THE BULK OF THE DRAINAGE DITCH INSTALLED AND THEN, THEN THEY WOULD BUILD THE BERM AFTER THEY DO THE NORTH DITCH.
THAT, UM, THAT RESOLUTION, JIM, I THINK THAT NEEDS DITCH CLEANING THE, UH, SOUTH DITCH, OH, WAIT A MINUTE.
UH, YEAH, IT SAYS CLEANING EXISTING DITCH,
[00:40:02]
UM, ALREADY WE'RE ALREADY CLEANING THE SOUTH DITCH.CAMMY, ARE YOU AWARE OF THAT OR NO? CORRECT.
I PROBABLY, THAT'S PROBABLY MY ERROR.
ALRIGHT, WELL THAT WON'T AFFECT, UH, THAT WON'T AFFECT IT AT ALL, RIGHT? NO, I'LL JUST GIVE A REVISION.
UM, IT GOES IN THE PAPER TOMORROW, SO I, I GO TO THE PAPER TOMORROW.
SO I'LL MAKE THAT CHANGE FOR A SECOND.
I WOULD RECOMMEND, UH, TABLING THIS RESOLUTION JUST TO SEE WHAT THE HIRING DONE.
NO, I DON'T WANT TO DO THAT TED, SO.
UM, OKAY, LET'S SEE, UH, ON THIS ONE, THIS IS THE RES, THE NEXT ONE IS THE RESOLUTION, UH, TO TABLE, UH, THE ZONING REQUEST ON THE CAR WASH, RIGHT? YES.
SO I WOULD JUST MOVE TO TABLE THAT AND THEN WE'LL TAKE IT UP, UH, AT OUR MEETING ON THE 28TH.
UH, THE NEXT ITEM 11 IS GRANTS AND DONATIONS, BUDGET ADJUSTMENTS.
WE GET THOSE EVERY ONCE IN A WHILE.
AND THEN NUMBER 12 IS THE, UH, RECOVERIES AND SALES BUDGET ADJUSTMENTS, JIM? YES.
UM, CAN I JUST, UH, PLEASE AN AMENDMENT? THE, THE LAST ITEM ON THIS ONE, UH, NUMBER 12.
SO ON NUMBER 12, IF WE COULD JUST AMEND IT TO NOT INCLUDE THE VERY LAST LINE, A 24 10.
UM, THAT ONE SHOULD NOT BE ON HERE RIGHT NOW FOR $1,250.
SO THAT MAKE AN AMENDMENT TO DELETE THAT, HUH? YEP.
I HAVE A QUICK QUESTION ON, UM, THE ERIE COUNTY STONE GARDEN OT REIMBURSEMENT.
IT'S A, SUCH A LARGE DOLLAR AMOUNT, 21,125.
UM, DO YOU KNOW EXACTLY WHAT THAT'S IN REGARDS TO? YES.
SO WE'RE MOVING BACK TO NUMBER 11, CORRECT? YEAH.
SO WHAT HAPPENS HERE IS ERIE COUNTY HAS THIS STONE GARDEN GRANT THAT ESSENTIALLY WE SCHEDULE MORE POLICE OVERTIME BECAUSE OF THE FACT THAT WE KNOW WE RECEIVE REIMBURSEMENT THROUGH THIS GRANT FOR THE PROGRAM.
SO ESSENTIALLY THE OVERTIME ABOVE AND BEYOND WHAT WE WOULD NORMALLY WORK WITH WITHIN OUR BUDGET CONSTRAINTS, UM, THIS MONEY ESSENTIALLY PAYS THE TOWN BACK FOR THAT EXTRA POLICE TIME.
IS THAT SOMETHING MORE THAN ONCE A YEAR OR IS THAT A ONE TIME, OR IS THAT, UM, I BELIEVE IT'S TYPICALLY MORE THAN ONCE A YEAR.
UM, EVERY TIME WE DO NOT BUDGET FOR IT.
UM, SO WHEN WE RECEIVE THE GRANT MONEY, WE ESSENTIALLY ADD BACK TO THE BUDGET THEN, UM, IT LOOKS LIKE 3 0 8 9.
YEAH, WE DON'T, THIS IS ONE THAT WE DON'T BUDGET FOR.
I, I GUESS YOU CAN COMPARE IT TO LIKE, WE DO BUDGET FOR THE STOP DWI PROGRAM THAT WE RECEIVE AID FOR, WE BUDGET 40,000.
SO IN THOSE CASES WE KNOW WE'RE GETTING THAT MONEY FOR THE ADDITIONAL TIME.
SO BECAUSE OF THAT WE ADD THAT MONEY IN ANNUALLY.
UM, THE STONE GARDEN MONEY, I KNOW THAT WE'VE BEEN RECEIVING THAT FOR QUITE SOME TIME.
SOMETIMES WE'LL GET IT LIKE ONCE EVERY COUPLE OF MONTHS.
IT JUST DEPENDS ON WHEN THE COUNTY PROCESSES THEIR PAYMENTS.
UM, USUALLY IT ISN'T QUITE THIS LARGE.
UM, SO THAT'S PROBABLY SOMETHING POLICE COULD SHED MORE LIGHT ON SPECIFICALLY.
I DON'T HAVE ANY OTHER DETAILS, UM, OKAY.
SO WE'LL DELETE, UH, THE NATIONAL FUEL ITEM.
AND THEN, SO THAT WILL CHANGE THE TOTAL TO $5,122 AND 90 CENTS.
THE NEXT ONE IS ON THE, UH, CAMP ROAD TRAFFIC LIGHT RESOLUTION TO ASK THAT THE DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION AUTHORIZE THE INSTALLATION OF A TRAFFIC CONTROL DEVICE, UH, TRAFFIC LIGHT AND SEND COPIES TO THE DOT UH, ASSEMBLY PERSON.
RYAN AND SENATOR KENNEDY, WE DON'T HAVE A SENATOR AT THIS POINT.
UH, NOW WE'VE GOT SEAN, WE'VE GOT THE SEEKER.
THIS IS DESIGNED TO COVER ALL OF THE PROJECTS
[00:45:02]
THAT ARE LISTED ONE THROUGH 10.SO IT, UH, IT, THEY ALL REQUIRE SOME SECRET REVIEW, I BELIEVE.
MAYBE NOT IT, BUT CERTAINLY THE REST OF OKAY.
NOW WALTER, CAN I ASK YOU A QUESTION? YES.
UH, WITH REGARD TO THE BONDS, UH, AM I REQUIRED
I THINK ALL THE VERBIAGE HAS TO BE READ.
SO MIKE PETRI HAS VOLUNTEERED FOR 15.
ALRIGHT, I'LL MARK YOU DOWN THERE, MIKE.
ALRIGHT, BETH, TAKE, I'LL TAKE 17.
HEY, THIS IS WORKING OUT BETTER THAN I THOUGHT.
BUT BETH FARRELL ON 16 AND, UH, 17 WILL BE 17.
UH, AND THEN WE GOT, HOW ABOUT NUMBER 20? WHOEVER WANTS TO DO YOU WANT ME GO WITH, WANT ME TO GO AGAIN? YEAH, IF YOU DON'T MIND, I'LL TAKE IT FOR ME.
YOU COULD FINISH UP THE LAST ONE.
OKAY, SO SHAW'S ON 24, WE READ THOSE AND AWAY WE GO ALL.
ANYTHING ELSE YOU WANNA DISCUSS THERE, LADIES AND GENTLEMEN? I THINK JUST A COUPLE OF THOUGHTS IN GENERAL.
UM, THESE BONDING PROJECTS, BECAUSE I KNOW, YOU KNOW, WE GOT, YOU KNOW, WE GET CAUGHT INTO THE FACT THAT WE HAVE A, A LOW, UH, PERCENTAGE RIGHT NOW AND WE ARE ENTHUSIASTIC FOR SOME OF THE OPPORTUNITIES.
THIS DOES OPEN UP, UH, TO DO SOME OF THESE CAPITAL PROJECTS THAT OTHERWISE DON'T NECESSARILY GET, UM, PLANNED, PLANNED FOR.
UM, BUT I THINK MAYBE AN IMPORTANT, AS THEY'RE BEING READ IN TONIGHT, AN IMPORTANT DISTINCTION FOR OUR RESIDENTS AND COMMUNITY IS THE POINT THAT THAT SAM HAS MADE IS THAT RIGHT NOW BECAUSE OF THE PROCESS, YOU KNOW, WE'RE FOLLOWING THE PROCESS WITH THE SEEKER WITH READING THIS IN IT, WHAT'S THE HIGHEST AMOUNT? BUT THAT THESE AMOUNTS ARE NOT NECESSARILY OVER THE NEXT ADDITIONAL MONTH OR SO OF RESEARCH THAT WE'RE GOING TO BE DOING AND DISCUSSION THAT THESE ARE NOT NECESSARILY THE AMOUNTS THAT WE'RE ULTIMATELY GOING TO AGREE UPON.
BECAUSE I THINK THERE'S STILL DISCUSSION OH YEAH.
RESEARCH THAT NEEDS TO BE DONE AND MM-HMM
AND I KNOW IN, YOU KNOW, I'VE HAD DISCUSSIONS WITH QUITE A FEW RESIDENTS OVER THE LAST FEW WEEKS IN GENERAL, AND AS WE ALREADY KNOW IT, THIS IS A VERY DIFFICULT BALANCING ACT BETWEEN WANTING TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THIS SITUATION NEEDS THAT WE HAVE IN THE TOWN, BUT ALSO RECOGNIZING AS YOU'VE POINTED OUT, THAT WE'RE IN DIFFICULT, UH, SITUATIONS RIGHT NOW FINANCIALLY WITH MCKINLEY LAW, WITH OUR BLT, OTHER SITUATIONS AND JUST MAKING SURE THAT WE KEEP AN EYE ON, AS I'VE HEARD FROM RESIDENTS, THE FACT THAT SOME WOULD, WELL IT SEEMS LOGICAL TO US AND WE'RE TALKING ABOUT IT ONLY BEING $13 OR $12 PER A HUNDRED THOUSAND OF ASSESSED VALUE THAT MANY RESIDENTS STILL FEEL THAT'S STILL AN INCREASE AND WE HAVEN'T EVEN GOTTEN TO THE BUDGET SEASON YET.
AND I DO WANNA MAKE SURE THAT WE CIRCLE BACK AND, AND REALIZE THAT IN THESE DIFFICULT TIMES, EVEN WHAT SEEMS LIKE IT'S A SMALL AMOUNT IS SIGNIFICANT TO MANY OF OUR RESIDENTS.
AND EARLIER THIS YEAR, UM, AND, AND WHILE WE'VE BEEN TALKING ABOUT THE, THIS, THESE BOND PROJECTS, WE HAVEN'T CONTINUING ANY DISCUSSION, BUT EARLIER THIS YEAR IT WAS BROUGHT UP ABOUT, UH, A REASSESSMENT AND YOU KNOW, WITH THIS WE TALK ABOUT HOW MUCH IT'LL BE PER A HUNDRED THOUSAND, BUT THEN A REASSESSMENT OCCURS THAT AMOUNT CAN AND MAYBE
[00:50:01]
AMPLIFIED FOR A HOMEOWNER.UM, SO I KNOW THAT I, IN IN DISCUSSIONS WITH MANY RESIDENTS WHILE THEY, WHILE THESE ARE ALL IN AND OF THEMSELVES, LAUDABLE PROJECTS, YOU KNOW, THAT ARE, ARE RESIDENTS ARE STRUGGLING AND SOMETIMES DON'T NECESSARILY SEE IT AS ONLY $12 PER HUNDRED THOUSAND.
AND JUST THAT WE BE CONTINUE TO BE EXTREMELY SENSITIVE AND CAUTIOUS, UM, AS WE GO FORWARD IN THE REST OF THIS PROCESS.
WELL THAT LOOK AT, THAT'S WHY THIS IS A HIGH WATERMARK.
YOU CANNOT GO ABOVE IN TERMS OF THE LAW, WHAT WE ARE ANNOUNCING HERE TONIGHT.
THAT'S WHY WE HAVE A HIGH LOW, UH, WE CAN REDUCE THE AMOUNT WE'RE GONNA BORROW AND I WANT TO, WE HAVE AN OPTION TO DO THAT FOR QUITE SOME PERIOD OF TIME BECAUSE I WANNA SEE WHERE WE STAND ON THE BUDGET.
THAT'S, THAT'S THE WHOLE PURPOSE OF THIS.
CAN I MAYBE ADD A LITTLE CLARIFYING DETAIL AS WELL TO THIS? UM, SO BASED ON THE CALENDAR, UM, WE HAVE TO APPROVE THESE RESOLUTIONS TONIGHT BASED ON OUR BOARD MEETING CALENDAR, UM, BECAUSE IT IS SUBJECT TO PERMISSIVE REFERENDUM HAS TO BE PUBLISHED.
UM, SO, SO THAT IS WHY WE ARE, WE HAVE THESE HIGH AMOUNTS AND THAT THESE, THIS IS THE ABSOLUTE MAXIMUM THAT CAN BE ISSUED.
OBVIOUSLY ALL OF YOU, YOU KNOW, CAN DECIDE IT DEPENDING ON WHERE EVERYTHING STANDS BETWEEN COVID, YOU KNOW, OUR BUDGET FOR THE NEXT YEAR.
THERE IS STILL TIME, UM, I HAD CIRCULATED, UM, AND I HAVE EXTRA COPIES OF OUR TENTATIVE SALE SCHEDULE.
SO WHEN YOU LOOK AT THAT, THE REASON THESE RESOLUTIONS HAVE TO GO THROUGH IS PURELY BECAUSE IT IS SUBJECT TO THE PERMISSIVE REFERENDUM PUBLICATION.
UM, IT LOOKS LIKE WE HAVE UNTIL ABOUT THE END OF OCTOBER THROUGH MAYBE ABOUT NOVEMBER 6TH, UM, IS REALLY THE PERIOD THAT WE HAVE TO HONE IN THIS INFORMATION EVEN MORE.
SO THIS IS JUST THE, THIS KIND OF ISN'T THE, THE END OF THE PROCESS.
WE'RE REALLY IN THE MIDDLE OF THE PROCESS AND THAT'S WHY WE HAVE TO PUT THESE RESOLUTIONS THROUGH NOW.
UM, AND THEN DURING THE REST OF THAT TIME, OBVIOUSLY JIM'S BUDGET, UM, THE SUPERVISOR'S VERSION OF THE 2021 BUDGET IS DUE BY THE END OF SEPTEMBER.
AT THAT POINT, WE ALREADY DO HAVE OUR MEETINGS SCHEDULED, UM, FOR BUDGET REVIEW FOR THE ENTIRE BOARD.
SO BY THE TIME, I MEAN OBVIOUSLY WE WON'T HAVE OUR FINAL BUDGET ADOPTED PRIOR TO THAT, BUT YOU ALL WILL HAVE A MUCH BETTER IDEA THAN WE HAVE NOW OF WHAT THE BUDGET IS LOOKING LIKE, WHAT THE TAX RATES ARE LOOKING LIKE FOR NEXT YEAR.
AND THEN IN ADDITION TO THAT SIDE OF THINGS WHERE THAT'S WORK THAT ALL OF YOU ARE PUTTING IN THE OTHER SIDE OF THAT AS WELL AS ALL, AS ALL OF YOU KNOW, UM, IS THAT THESE PROJECTS, THERE IS MORE, I GOT MORE WORK TO BE DONE IS FROM EVERYONE THAT'S HANDLING THE PROJECT MANAGEMENT SIDE OF THINGS.
THIS IS WHEN WE REALLY HONE IN ON EVEN MORE QUOTES, MORE DETAILED INFORMATION AND THEN, UH, YOU KNOW, JUST TO SEE IF, IF THESE NUMBERS CAN GO LOWER.
IF SO, HOW MUCH LOWER THEY CAN GO BY.
SO IT, AND THE, THE DEBT COMMITTEE IS CONTINUING TO PLAN TO MEET, UM, AND WE WILL HAVE REGULAR UPDATES WITH THE BOARD AS WELL, SIMILAR TO HOW WE'VE BEEN DOING SO FAR.
THAT IS GOING TO CONTINUE THROUGH THE ISSUANCE.
AND THAT WAS ALSO, THAT WAS THE POINT I WAS TRYING TO MAKE.
THAT INFORMATION WAS IMPORTANT FOR THE S AS THESE ARE READ INTO THE RECORDS, IT'S ALREADY OUT THERE.
AND SECONDLY, THERE IS NO PLAN TO PUT FORWARD JUST SO WE DON'T CREATE CONFUSING SIGNALS.
WE'RE NOT PUTTING FORWARD A AL PLAN.
THE COST OF THE COST OF DOING IT HAS BEEN BROUGHT UP, HASN'T BEEN DONE IN 23 YEARS.
WE'RE PROBABLY OUT OF COMPLIANCE WITH STATE RULES AND REGULATIONS, BUT THE COST UPFRONT AT THREE, 400,000 OVER THE NEXT YEAR OR TWO OR MAYBE EVEN THREE, WE CAN'T AFFORD TO UNDERTAKE IT.
UH, WHAT ARE WE GOING TO DO AS FAR AS THE HIGHWAY WITH THE ROADS? THE MEETING WE HAD ON SATURDAY, YOU MAKE YOU MAKE A MOTION TO AMEND AND THE MOTION IS BEFORE YOU, RIGHT? I, I MEAN WE HAVE THAT AMOUNT THERE.
WHAT, WHAT WAS EVERYBODY'S THOUGHTS? ARE WE GOING THAT ROUTE OR DID YOU WANNA I'M INCLINED TO GO THAT ROUTE.
WHAT IS YOUR THOUGHTS? WELL, THE IDEA HAS SOME MERIT.
WHAT TED HAD AS FAR AS, UH, DOING MORE ROADS AND GOING TO A MAINTENANCE UHHUH, YOU KNOW, HAS MERIT.
BUT I DON'T KNOW WHAT EVERYBODY'S THOUGHT FOR.
I MEAN, IF, IF WE WERE CONSIDERING IT ALL, WE SHOULD HAVE IT IN HERE AND THEN IF, IF IT DOESN'T GO, YOU KNOW, 'CAUSE WE CAN'T ADD UP.
UM, BECAUSE, YOU KNOW, OUR HIGHWAY INFRASTRUCTURE IS VERY IMPORTANT.
HOWEVER, UM, MY CONCERNS WERE JUST, I GOT THE INFORMATION SO LATE AND TAKING SOME OF THESE THINGS INTO CONSIDERATION.
I LOOKED AT THE TIME THAT WAS SPENT ON THE
[00:55:01]
LED PROJECT BONDING FOR THAT, THE COLLABORATION THAT WAS INVOLVED, UM, WHEN BETH BROUGHT TO LIGHT THE HIGHWAY ADVISORY BOARD, THAT REALLY KIND OF STUCK OUT TO ME AS SOMETHING THAT WOULD BE PART OF THE PROCESS.I THINK THIS IS SOMETHING THAT WE SHOULD PURSUE AT THIS TIME.
I DON'T FEEL THAT I HAVE THE, YOU KNOW, INFORMATION WHERE I'M COMFORTABLE ENOUGH IN MAKING A, A DECISION IN THAT SORT OF SPENDING RANGE.
UM, I THINK IT'S SOMETHING THAT NEEDS TO BE CONSIDERED AND LOOKED AT, UM, IN DEVELOPING A PLAN.
LIKE I SAID, WHEN YOU MENTIONED THE HIGHWAY ADVISORY BOARD, I THINK THAT WOULD BE A HUGE PIECE OF, OF COLLABORATING TO, YOU KNOW, COME UP WITH A PLAN FOR THAT AMOUNT OF FUNDING THEY HAVE.
THEY HAVE ALL, UM, ARE IN RECEIPT OF THE, THE PLAN NOW BECAUSE WE JUST GOT THAT A FEW DAYS AGO AND THEY ARE GOING TO REVIEW IT AS QUICKLY AS POSSIBLE.
UM, WE WILL BE MEETING IN THE NEXT WEEK AND I'LL HAVE A BETTER SENSE THEN.
UH, I FEEL THAT THEY'LL PROBABLY BE ABLE TO GIVE SOME TYPE OF, UM, RESPONSE AND RECOMMENDATION TO THE BOARD FAIRLY QUICKLY AND, YOU KNOW, WHETHER IT'S SOMETHING THAT WE'RE GOING TO DO NOW OR WANNA REVISIT LATER, YOU'RE RIGHT.
THEY CAN BE DEFINITELY AN INSTRUMENTAL PART OF, OF GUIDING US IN, UH, YOU KNOW, THE SPECIFICS OF THAT PLAN.
WELL, WITH THAT BEING SAID, YOU KNOW, TODAY'S KIND OF OUR HIGH WATERMARK.
UH, DO WE AMEND IT TO DO THAT AND THEN GET THE ADVICE FROM HIGHWAY AND THEN, YOU KNOW, GO FROM THERE.
WHAT DO YOU GUYS WANT TO DO? WELL, I'LL LET THE BOARD DISCUSS FIRST.
TED, PLEASE, WE'LL GET TO YOU.
YEAH, I'M REALLY COMFORTABLE WITH THE 300,000, UM, AND THERE'S REALLY, YOU KNOW, THREE OR, YOU KNOW, SEVERAL REASONS WHY I WOULD SAY THAT, UM, THAT I, YOU KNOW, DIGESTED EVERYTHING WE TALKED ABOUT SATURDAY.
AND AGAIN, REALLY APPRECIATE YOUR PRESENTATION, YOUR POINTS, YOUR TIME, YOUR EFFORT AND THINKING OUTSIDE THE BOX.
I THINK THINKING OUTSIDE THE BOX IS SOMETHING WE'RE ALL TRYING TO DO TO SAVE MONEY FOR TAXPAYERS, YOU KNOW, IN THIS KIND OF ENVIRONMENT.
UM, SO I APPRECIATE THAT AND I THINK LIKE KAREN AND BETH HAVE SAID, THERE'S DEFINITELY OPPORTUNITIES TO, YOU KNOW, FURTHER EXPLORE THIS.
UM, BUT IN TERMS OF WHAT WE'RE DOING TONIGHT AND WHAT WE'RE DOING WITH THIS PARTICULAR RESOLUTION, UM, I THINK WE HAVE TO BE A LITTLE BIT CAREFUL IN THAT THIS TECHNICALLY DOESN'T REALLY FIT THE CRITERIA OF A CAPITAL PROJECT AS THE OTHER ITEMS THAT WE'RE APPROVING FOR THE BOND.
YOU HAVE TO REMEMBER A CAPITAL PROJECT IS SOMETHING THAT IS NOT IN A NORMAL TRADITIONAL BUDGET.
AND WHEN YOU LOOK AT THE OTHER NINE ITEMS THAT WE'RE, UH, TALKING ABOUT TONIGHT, UM, ALMOST EVERYTHING IN THOSE ITEMS YOU'RE NOT GONNA FIND IN THE TOWN BUDGET.
HOWEVER, THE PAVING PORTION, YOU KNOW, THAT WE, WE WOULD DO SPECIFICALLY FOR, YOU KNOW, THOSE PARTICULAR ROADS, UM, IS IN THE TOWN BUDGET, UH, YEAR AFTER YEAR AFTER YEAR AFTER YEAR.
SO WHILE THERE IS SOME LEEWAY AND WE HAVE THE ABILITY TO AUTHORIZE A CAPA PROJECT FOR SOMETHING THAT IS IN THE BUDGET, I DO THINK WE HAVE TO BE CAREFUL WITH THE AMOUNT THAT WE WOULD ALLOCATE TO ANY, UH, AREA THAT'S AN ONGOING EXPENSE OF THE TOWN, YOU KNOW, SUCH AS THE PAVING.
SO AS I'M COMFORTABLE GOING UP TO THE 300,000, BECAUSE I DO FEEL THAT THERE'S A SIGNIFICANT NEED, AND THIS IS A GREAT OPPORTUNITY, YOU KNOW, TO, TO CAPTURE THAT NEED.
UM, BUT I'D BE HESITANT TO DO MUCH MORE AT THIS POINT, YOU KNOW, BASED ON SOME OF THE INFORMATION IN THE REPORT THAT YOU DID.
UM, ONE OF THE THINGS THAT I LOOKED AT THROUGH THE BUDGET IS IF YOU LOOK AT THE PAVING BUDGET, BACK IN 2013, WE HAD ALLOCATED ABOUT 600,000, YOU KNOW, SPECIFICALLY TO PAVING.
AND NOW IN 2020, WE ALLOCATED OVER 1.1 MILLION, $1.14 MILLION.
SO WE SAW A PRETTY SIGNIFICANT INCREASE OVER THE, YOU KNOW, THAT THAT TIME PERIOD, UM, YOU KNOW, NEARLY DOUBLING, YOU KNOW, WHAT WE WERE SPENDING, UM, ON THE, THE PAYMENT IN TERMS OF THE FINANCES, IT'S GREAT TO HAVE, YOU KNOW, THE LOW INTEREST RATE ENVIRONMENT.
UM, BUT ONE OF THE THINGS I CALCULATED IN TERMS OF, OF THE WAY THAT THIS PROJECT WOULD WORK, SINCE HE WOULD BE PAYING BACK THE, THE, THE DEPARTMENT WOULD BE PAYING BACK, UH, YEAR AFTER YEAR AFTER YEAR FOR THE NEXT 15 YEARS.
IF YOU BREAK DOWN JUST THE INTEREST PAYMENT ON THAT, IT EQUATES TO APPRO APPROXIMATELY $759,194, WHICH, YOU KNOW, AGAIN, WE DON'T KNOW THE EXACT INTEREST RATE WE'RE GONNA GET.
UM, BUT OVER 15 YEARS, BORROWING SIX OVER $6 MILLION, EVEN THOUGH WE'RE AT LOW INTEREST RATES, THAT'S STILL A LONG TIME HORIZON THAT'S GONNA ACCUMULATE, UH, A SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF INTEREST.
UM, SO I THINK THAT'S ONE OF THE, THE, THE PROBLEMS WITH DOING IT ALL
[01:00:01]
UPFRONT IS WE WOULD STILL BE PAYING, UM, OVER HALF A MILLION DOLLARS IN LIKELY OVER HALF A MILLION DOLLARS IN INTEREST PAYMENTS OVER THAT TIME PERIOD.UM, AND I'M ALSO JUST NOT NECESSARILY COMFORTABLE DOING ESSENTIALLY 15 YEARS OF WORK ALL IN ONE YEAR.
I TEND TO THINK THAT THAT'S, YOU KNOW, A PRETTY DRASTIC CHANGE, UH, WHEN WE'VE HAD, YOU KNOW, DECADE AFTER DECADE OF DOING IT SLOW, METHODICALLY, STRATEGICALLY.
SO WHILE IN FAVOR OF INCREASING AND HAVING, YOU KNOW, A HIGHER AMOUNT ALLOCATED WITHIN THIS, UM, I'M CERTAINLY NOT COMFORTABLE GOING OVER THE 300,000 AND THOSE TWO POINTS THAT YOU JUST MADE.
I THINK THOSE ARE TWO SPECIFIC QUESTIONS I'LL ASK THE, THE HIGHWAY ADVISORY BOARD TO ASSESS TOO, BECAUSE THE TYPE OF PROJECTS THEY'VE MANAGED IN THE PAST WOULD BE SIMILAR, THAT THEY COULD COMMENT, I THINK, ON, ON BOTH OF THOSE POINTS, ESPECIALLY REGARDING THE, THE PLANNING IN THE 15 YEARS AND THEN EVEN THE COST, UM, THE COST AND SAVINGS IN TERMS OF THE MAINTENANCE VERSUS SOME OF THESE INTEREST COSTS THAT YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT.
ASK, DID WE EVER APPOINT THIS HIGHWAY ADVISOR? YES, WE DID.
DID WE? HOW LONG AGO WE DO THAT? UM, ABOUT A YEAR AGO.
TWO YEARS? NO, IT WAS LESS, LESS LAST SUMMER.
HAVE THEY MET, HAVE THEY MET AT ALL WITH TED IN THE LAST YEAR? YES, THEY HAVE MET, THEY ACTUALLY ARE DESIGNED TO ADVISE THE TOWN BOARD, AND WE HAVE HAD SEVERAL OTHER TIMES WHEN WE HAVE TALKED WITH TED ABOUT UTILIZING THEM.
BUT, UM, TED IS NOT WANTING TO AVAIL, UH, HIMSELF OF THE OPPORTUNITY IN THE PAST, BUT I THINK THAT THIS IS A VERY UNIQUE PROJECT AND REALLY DEMANDS THAT TYPE OF SCRUTINY BY, BY OTHER INDIVIDUALS.
UM, ONE QUESTION I HAVE THAT'S AN INTERESTING COMMENT ABOUT, UH, OR AN INTERESTING POINT ABOUT THE USE OF, OF BONDS FOR WHAT TYPES OF PROJECTS.
SO THEN HOW WOULD THAT ALIGN ITSELF WITH THE COMMUNITY PAVING PROJECTS WE'RE TALKING ABOUT, WHICH TYPICALLY WOULD SOMEWHAT BE THE SAME AS THE OTHER PAVING PROJECTS? WELL, I'M NOT AWARE THAT, LET'S SAY FOR EXAMPLE, IN THE RECREATION MM-HMM
UM, THAT THEY'VE EVER IN THE PAST HAD, YOU KNOW, A SIX FIGURE ALLOCATION WITHIN THEIR BUDGET, UH, FOR A PAVING COMPONENT.
UM, AND AGAIN, I'M NOT SAYING THAT YOU CAN'T DO SOME OF THAT, UM, BUT CERTAINLY IF YOU LOOK YEAR AFTER YEAR AFTER YEAR, LET'S SAY, UH, THE RECREATION DEPARTMENT MM-HMM
YOU'RE NOT GONNA SEE A SIX FIGURE PAVING ALLOCATION YEAR AFTER YEAR AFTER YEAR.
IF WE DID, AND THEY WERE SAYING, NOW YOU'RE DOING A ONE TIME CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT BOND AND WE WANT YOU TO INCLUDE PAVING, WE'D SAY, WELL, WE MIGHT CONSIDER IT, BUT WE'RE A LITTLE BIT LESS LIKELY 'CAUSE WE'RE ALREADY DOING THAT EACH AND EVERY YEAR FOR THE LAST 50 YEARS.
YOU KNOW, THAT'S WHERE THE, THE DISTINCTION OF THE TWO IS.
NOT SAYING YOU CAN'T DO IT, BUT A CAPITAL PROJECT IS MAINLY DESIGNED FOR A ONETIME EXPENSE THAT'S NOT AN ONGOING BUDGET CONCERN.
WHERE HAS THAT FALLEN IN THE PAST? I'M SURE WE'VE PAVED THOSE FACILITIES BEFORE.
WHOSE BUDGET, WHERE DOES THAT COME FROM BEFORE? DOES IT COME FROM B AND G? FROM WE, WE HAVEN'T PAID THEM.
WE HAVEN'T PAVED THEM IN A LOT OF YEARS.
I THINK THERE'S A COUPLE DISTINCTIONS WITH IT.
SO I THINK AS FAR AS WHEN THIS HAS OCCURRED IN THE PAST, I KNOW THAT THERE WAS LIKE, UM, ROUTINE, LIKE IF YOU WERE JUST PATCHING SPOTS ON IT OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT.
HISTORICALLY THE HIGHWAY DEPARTMENT, UM, HAD HANDLED THAT FOR US IN THE PAST, WHICH I DON'T THINK THERE HAVE BEEN A LOT OF, UH, THERE HASN'T BEEN A LOT OF PATCHING THAT'S OCCURRED IN THE RECENT YEARS.
UM, I GUESS THE BEST EXAMPLE THAT I CAN GIVE OF THIS IS WHAT I THINK THIS HAS BEEN A CAPITAL, IT'S BEEN CAPITAL EXPENDITURES IN THE PAST.
WHEN YOU'RE PAVING SOMETHING SUCH AS A PARKING LOT, IT'S KIND OF THE SAME IDEA AS FOR YOU PERSONALLY.
IF YOU BUY APPLIANCES YOURSELF, THAT IS A CAPITAL PURCHASE BECAUSE YOU PROBABLY ONLY BUY A NEW STOVE LIKE MAYBE ONCE EVERY 10 YEARS.
BUT IF YOU OWN AN APARTMENT COMPLEX, YOU'RE THAT BUYING APPLIANCES IS NOT A CAPITAL PURCHASE BECAUSE CHANCES ARE YOU HAVE NUMEROUS APARTMENTS YOU NEED TO BUY, YOU KNOW, MULTIPLE PER YEAR IN ORDER TO, TO FIX EVERYTHING.
SO I GUESS IT'S KIND OF THAT SAME COMPARISON WHERE, BECAUSE OF THE FACT THAT IT IS ONE SPACE THAT GETS PAVED VERSUS EVERY, YOU KNOW, 10 OR 20 YEARS VERSUS ROADS WHERE BY NATURE EVERY YEAR THE HIGHWAY DEPARTMENT IS PAVING.
UM, THAT'S, I GUESS I'M TRYING TO MAKE THE DISTINCTION AS EASY, AS CLEAR AS POSSIBLE.
NOW HOW I SEE IT, LIKE WHEN THIS ALL CAME FORWARD, AND GRANTED, I KNOW IT WAS LAST MINUTE AND EVERYTHING, I, I GET IT, UH, LOOKING AT IT IS, YOU KNOW, USING THAT MUCH MONEY OUT OF HIS ALLOCATED MONEY PER YEAR TO PAY THIS BACK, BUT THE, THE BALANCE THAT HE WOULD STILL HAVE LEFT, NOT COUNTING CHIPS AND THE OTHER THINGS JUST, JUST FROM THE TOWN'S END OF IT, UH, HE WOULD STILL HAVE, UH, A COUPLE MILES WORTH OF, OF LEEWAY SURE.
THAT, THAT THEY CAN CONTINUE TO WORK.
[01:05:01]
AND SO I WAS LEERY ABOUT THAT BECAUSE YOU'RE CUTTING YOUR BUDGET SO MUCH, BUT TO GET ALL THE ROADS UP TO SPEED AND GET 'EM DONE LIKE THAT, UH, AND THEY DO MAINTENANCE AND THEN THEY COULD START DOING SOME OF THE OTHER ROADS IN UPKEEP, I THINK, THINK IT'S GOT A LOT OF MERIT.AND, AND, AND LIKE I SAID, I UNDERSTAND AND I KNOW THE HIGHWAY, YOU KNOW, THE, THE ADVISORY BOARD HASNT GOTTEN ME.
BUT IF WE DON'T, UH, UP THE RATE IN THIS, THEN THAT KILLS IT FOR HERE.
SO THAT'S WHAT I'M SAYING, YOU GUYS, WE, I MEAN, 300,000 AND 400,000, YOU KNOW, AND, AND AGAIN, I THINK THAT ADVISORY IS KEY BECAUSE I KNOW WITH THE RECREATION SIDE, THAT RECREATION ADVISORY BOARD WAS HUGE.
YOU KNOW, WE MET MULTIPLE TIMES.
THEY'VE BEEN MEETING FOR DECADES TALKING ABOUT THESE IMPROVEMENTS, TALKING ABOUT THESE PROJECTS.
UH, RICK HAS BEEN, YOU KNOW, GETTING QUOTES FOR A DECADE.
UM, YOU KNOW, HE'S DONE THE DUE DILIGENCE.
HE'S WORKED WITH MARTY, HE'S TALKED TO THE, THE COACHES, THE COACHES ADVISORY COMMITTEE, YOU KNOW, THAT WE MET WITH SEVERAL TIMES THIS YEAR, TALKED ABOUT THE PROJECT, WENT BACK AND FORTH, ADDED ITEMS, DELETED ITEMS, GOT THEIR FEEDBACK.
YOU KNOW, YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT COLLECTIVELY PROBABLY CLOSE TO 25 INDIVIDUALS, YOU KNOW, THE LEADERS OF ALL THE RECREATION PROGRAMS, THE, UH, LEADERS OF THE ADVISORY BOARD, YOU KNOW, MOST OF THEM THAT HAVE SERVED FOR SEVERAL YEARS, SOME FOR OVER A DECADE.
UM, ALL THAT INPUT WAS, WAS, WAS HUGE IN DEVELOPING WHAT ARE WE GONNA USE, WHAT CAN WE CUT, HOW CAN WE DO IT? HOW CAN WE MAXIMIZE EVERY POSSIBLE DOLLAR? BECAUSE I DON'T THINK WE ARE IN THE FINANCIAL POSITION TO JUST SPEND MONEY TO MAKE THINGS BETTER.
WE HAVE TO SPEND MONEY TO TAKE THINGS BETTER THAT REALLY ARE FALLING APART, YOU KNOW, NEED TO BE REPLACED, ARE GONNA GET REPLACED.
YOU KNOW, SOME, SOME OF THESE THINGS ARE REALLY, UM, YOU KNOW, ESSENTIAL THAT I THINK IF WE HAD AN ADVISORY BOARD ON THE TRAFFIC SIDE ON THE HIGHWAY SIDE, UM, THAT HAD BEEN MEETING FOR A DECADE OR HAD BEEN MEETING, YOU KNOW, WITH TED ON AN, A REGULAR BASIS, UM, AND HAD NOT FOUR PEOPLE, BUT MAYBE 10 PEOPLE, UM, AND NOT ONLY, YOU KNOW, CONSULTED WITH WITH BETH, BUT, BUT, BUT CONSULTED WITH OTHER EXPERTS.
I I'M JUST SAYING, I THINK A LOT OF WHAT WE'VE BEEN ABLE TO IDENTIFY IN THE OTHER NINE PROJECTS HAVE BEEN REALLY WELL VETTED, REALLY WELL RESEARCHED, REALLY WELL DEBATED.
UM, AND, YOU KNOW, WE ALL LITERALLY GOT A PACKET OF OVER A HUNDRED PAGES, 72, UH, LESS THAN A HUNDRED HOURS AGO.
I'M NOT COMFORTABLE SPENDING $6.2 MILLION ON A PACKET THAT I GOT THREE, FOUR DAYS AGO.
AND I'M NOT COMFORTABLE DOING IT WITHOUT THE APPROVAL OF SOME OTHER TYPE OF ADVISORY BOARD THAT'S REALLY VETTED OUT, UH, TO A HIGH EXTENT.
SO WHILE I'M COMFORTABLE IDENTIFYING THAT NEED AND GOING TO 300,000, WHICH WOULD ESSENTIALLY MORE THAN DOUBLE WHAT THE BUDGET WAS, UM, SEVEN YEARS AGO, I, I, I'M JUST NOT REALLY COMFORTABLE SPENDING THAT KIND OF MONEY ABOVE THAT RIGHT NOW.
YOU KNOW, LET ME SAY TOO, IF I MAY, UH, I JUST PASSED, PASSED AROUND THIS, THIS COMPUTATION THAT SAM DID IN 2017.
THE TOWN'S APPROPRIATION, NEVERMIND CHIPS AND PVE, NEW YORK, THE PAVING WAS 4 25, 420 5,000 LAST YEAR.
WE HAVE IT UP TO 674,000, 4 59.
THERE ISN'T ANY OTHER LINE ITEM IN THE, IN ANY PART OF THIS BUDGET THAT HAS BEEN INCREASED OVER THAT SAME PERIOD OF TIME, NEARLY TO THIS EXTENT.
NOW, WHAT TED IS SUGGESTING IN HIS REPORT AS I, AS I READ THROUGH IT, IS A WHOLE NEW PARADIGM.
WE TOOK ALMOST TWO YEARS ON LED LIGHTING.
AND EVEN AFTER A DECISION WAS MADE, WE TOOK CRITICISM FOR THE DECISION WE MADE
SO THIS IS MORE MONEY THAN LED LIGHTING.
AND THEN WE'VE ALSO HAD TO SAY TO THE CHIEF AND TO SEAN KARATE, YOU HAVE A VERY VALID PROPOSAL FOR A WHOLE NEW JUSTICE CENTER AT 6 MILLION, WHICH IS LESS THAN THIS.
AND WE HAVE TO PUT THAT ON THE BACK BURNER BECAUSE WE CAN MAKE SOME REPAIRS.
IT, YOUR REQUEST DOESN'T REQUIRE A WHOLE NEW REINVENTION.
IF, IF, IF TED'S TWO STUDIES THAT, THAT ARE CITED IN THE REPORT THAT, UH, TED GAVE US ON, UH, THURSDAY, UM, THOSE
[01:10:01]
ONE STUDY SAYS THAT, UH, THERE WERE 75 LANE MILES OUT OF THREE 17 THAT WERE RATED POOR.THE OTHER STUDY SAID IT'S 60 BASED ON TED'S SLINGERS.
WE, IN 2019, WE PAVED 20 LANE MILES OF POOR ROADS.
HE SAID THAT DOUBLED WHAT WE DID IN 18.
WE, HE THINKS WE MAY BE DOING 15 THIS YEAR, THAT'S 45.
AND IF WE GIVE HIM SOME ADDITIONAL SIGNIFICANT ADDITIONAL MONEY FOR 2021, HE MAY BE COMING CLOSE TO ELIMINATING CLOSE.
I KNOW THAT'S A, IT'S A STATIC, STATIC THING, BUT A LOT CLOSER THAN EVER BEFORE TO ELIMINATING ALL OF THE POORLY PAVED ROADS WITHIN THE TOWN.
THAT'S A PRETTY SIGNIFICANT ACHIEVEMENT OVER A FOUR YEAR PERIOD.
SO I, I AM COMFORTABLE DOING WHAT WE'RE DOING.
KIM, CAN I JUMP IN THIS FOR A SECOND? AS YOU HAVE AN OFFICER, I IS THE TIGHT PROPOSAL I HAVEN'T SEEN, BUT I WAS THERE AT ALL THE MEETINGS.
IT SEEMS HE'S PROPOSING A SEA CHANGE OF HOW TOM ADDRESSES PAY ITS MAINTENANCE AS OPPOSED TO PAVING.
AND HE'S PUTTING $6 MILLION TOWARDS FOUR ROADS AND FAIR ROADS.
SO HE'S TAKING ROADS THAT DON'T NEED TO BE PAVED, AND HE'S PAVING THEM, AND HE CAN'T CITE ANY OTHER MUNICIPALITY THAT IS EMBRACED THIS PHILOSOPHY OF PAVING AND FOR US TO HAVE A COMPLETE SEA CHANGE OF HOW WE'RE DOING THIS WITH NO OTHER MUNICIPALITY AS AN EXAMPLE THAT IT WORKS OR ANY OTHER CITY, RIGHT? YOUR PLACE ACROSS THE COUNTRY THAT DOES THIS, AND THIS IS HOW THEY EMBRACE IT.
AND WE HAVE FOUR DAYS IN WISH TO EMBRACE THAT.
IT SEEMS LIKE A GIANT LEAP, UM, INTO THE UNKNOWN WITH $6 MILLION.
SO WHAT I'D LIKE TO SAY IS THAT AGAIN, UM, THAT HIGHWAY ADVISORY BOARD, UH, THIS WILL BE A GOLDEN OPPORTUNITY FOR THEM TO BE ABLE TO ADVISE THIS BOARD.
SO THEY WILL DIGEST THIS, AND I, WITH THEIR EXPERIENCE, THEY'LL BE ABLE TO ADDRESS SOME OF THE ISSUES THAT, THAT WALTER JUST BROUGHT UP.
THEY WILL BE ABLE TO, UH, THEY MAY COME BACK AND SAY, HEY, THIS IS A, UM, THIS IS A PERFECTLY CONSTRUCTED PLANNER.
THEY MAY COME BACK WITH SOME RECOMMENDATIONS OR THEY MAY COME BACK WITH THOUGHTS ON HOW TO, UM, DIVIDE THE PROJECT DOWN.
I'M VERY COMFORTABLE, AS YOU SAID, YOU LEFT IT, UM, UH, WITH THE DIFFERENT ADVISORY BOARDS THAT YOU WORKED WITH TO COME UP WITH SOME OF THEIR RECOMMENDATIONS.
SO I'M VERY COMFORTABLE WITH THE EXPERTISE OF THESE INDIVIDUALS, UH, AND I'M VERY INTERESTED TO SEE WHAT THEY SAY AFTER THEY'RE ABLE TO DIGEST THIS REPORT.
AND THEN, UM, MAKE RECOMMENDATIONS TO US.
AND I GUESS THEN THAT BRINGS UP THE NEXT QUESTION TO SAM.
IT, IT'S MY UNDERSTANDING THAT, UH, THIS IS SOMETHING THAT WE COULD VISIT AGAIN IN THE FUTURE.
IN OTHER WORDS, IF THE, IF IT'S DECIDED THAT THIS IS THE WAY TO GO, THEN WE WOULD HAVE SOME PREPARATION.
WE COULD VERY WELL, UM, REVISIT THIS AS SOON AS EVEN SPRING.
AND I SAID THIS, I'VE SAID THIS BEFORE, THAT I THINK, UM, WE HAD KIND OF GOTTEN INTO THIS BANDAID APPROACH FOR A WHILE, UM, IN, IN THE TIME THAT I'VE BEEN HERE, UM, WHICH IN MOST OF YOUR CASES, YOU KNOW, IT IS LONGER THAN YOU HAVE BEEN.
AND I WILL SAY THAT, UM, WE WEREN'T TAKING ON NEW PROJECTS TO ISSUE DEBT IN, IN THE RECENT PAST.
SO I, IT'S MY RECOMMENDATION TO THE BOARD THAT YOU INSTRUCT THE DEBT COMMITTEE TO CONTINUE MEETING, I WOULD THINK AT LEAST ON A MONTHLY BASIS AT ALL TIMES.
UM, EVEN WHEN WE'RE NOT IN THE MIDST OF AN ISSUANCE.
BECAUSE THEN WHAT CAN HAPPEN IS PROJECTS, UM, THAT MAY BE VALID SUCH AS THIS CAN BE EVALUATED CONTINUOUSLY SO THAT, YOU KNOW, WHEN SOMETHING COMES UP AND THE OPPORTUNITY PRESENTS ITSELF, LIKE NOW WE HAVE THAT BACKGROUND KNOWLEDGE ALREADY AND WE'RE ALREADY WORKING ON THAT INFORMATION SO THAT, YOU KNOW, WE'RE NEVER IN THE POSITION WE ARE RIGHT NOW WHERE WE REALLY, THIS DEBT COMMITTEE HAD TO WORK SO HARD AND SCRAMBLE SO MUCH TO PUT THIS, TO COMPILE THIS INFORMATION.
I THINK WE SHOULD BE LOOKING AT THIS ALL THE TIME.
SO IF WE ISSUE DECEMBER 1ST, THERE'S NO NO REASON THAT ONCE THAT HAPPENS, WE SHOULDN'T START LOOKING AT WHAT OUR NEXT GOALS ARE, WHAT THE NEXT POTENTIAL PROJECTS ARE.
IT MAY NOT BE AS EARLY AS SPRING.
WE WANNA GET A COMPREHENSIVE VIEW, WALTER'S, RIGHT.
UH, HOW MUCH WILL, WHAT ARE THE EXPERTS NATIONWIDE TELL US, UH, WHAT CAN WE AFFORD TO DO GIVEN OUR OTHER CAPITAL NEEDS? UH, WHAT DO WE DO TO ADDRESS A, JUST THE JUSTICE CENTER FOR DISPATCH AND POLICE AND FOR DOMESTIC VIOLENCE? YOU KNOW, THEY HAVE, THEY HAVE REAL SPACE PROBLEMS AND REAL CONCERNS.
LIKE THERE'S A KEY DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THAT AND BETWEEN THE HIGHWAY IS THAT IT WAS GONNA BE PAID FOR OUT OF HIS BUDGET.
THAT'S, THAT'S THE DIFFERENCE.
BUT YOU, BUT YOU GOTTA, YOU BEAR IN MIND
[01:15:01]
PROBABLY AS WELL AS I DO, IF NOT BETTER, THAT ONE, WE CAN'T GUARANTEE THE INTEREST RATE.TWO, WE CAN'T GUARANTEE THAT THE STATE IS GONNA HOLD ON TO CHIPS AND TO PAY NEW YORK, THE GOVERNOR'S, THE GOVERNOR'S, UH, GUY TELLS ME EXPECT THE 20% AND WE'RE BUDGETING FOR THAT 20% KNOCKOFF AS WE GOT WITH DLT.
UH, AND THEN ONCE THAT MORTGAGE PAYMENT IS FIXED AT 480, WHATEVER IT IS, THAT'S GONNA BE FIXED FOR 15 YEARS, THE PAVING ALLOTMENT FROM THE TOWN, WHICH MAY BE SHIFTED TO A NEW CODE ISN'T GONNA GO DOWN OVER THAT SAME PERIOD IS ALL GONNA GO UP YEAR TO YEAR.
SO IT COULD BECOME EXPONENTIALLY A LOT MORE EXPENSIVE.
I THINK BUDGET WISE THIS YEAR, NONE OF YOU HAVE A SMALL TASK HERE TO DECIDE YOU KNOW WHAT TO DO.
AND I MEAN, AS FAR AS CHIPS GOES, WE ARE IN UNCHARTED TERRITORY WITH COVID AS WELL.
BUT YEAH, THE THINGS THAT WE COULD COUNT ON IN THE PAST, UNFORTUNATELY, WE REALLY CAN'T SAY FOR CERTAIN WE'RE GOING TO HAVE MOVING FORWARD.
WELL, THEY SAY A 20% REDUCTION.
I HOPE THE GOVERNOR ISN'T GONNA DO THAT TO US.
WE'RE NOT GONNA GET A, WE'RE NOT GONNA GET FEDERAL ASSISTANCE.
SO ONE OTHER THOUGHT, SEAN, UM, THE, THIS HIGHWAY ADVISORY BOARD, THEY HAVE EXPERTISE IN ALL KINDS OF DIFFERENT PAVING PROJECTS.
UM, GIVEN THE SIZE OF THE PAVING PROJECT AT THE TWO COMMUNITY AREAS, I WAS THINKING THAT IT MIGHT BE A GOOD IDEA TO HAVE THEM.
AND THEY, I'VE ALREADY, YOU KNOW, ASKED THEM WOULD THEY BE WILLING TO, I DIDN'T WANNA OFFER THAT.
IF THEY WEREN'T AND THEY SAID THEY'D BE MORE THAN WILLING TO LOOK AT BOTH OF THOSE PROJECTS TO ALSO JUST OVERVIEW, MAKE ANY RECOMMENDATIONS, ESPECIALLY SINCE WE'RE HEARING THAT IT'S BEEN A WHILE SINCE ANY WORK WAS DONE.
THAT MIGHT JUST BE, AGAIN, SINCE IT'S ANOTHER LARGE CHUNK OF MONEY TO ABSOLUTELY JUST HELP INFORM OUR, UM, YOU KNOW, AND GIVE US MORE OVERSIGHT AND, UH, OKAY, IF THEY'VE GOT, IF THEY'VE GOT SOME RECOMMENDATIONS TO MAKE, THAT'S, THAT'S FINE.
BUT WE DO KNOW, WE DO KNOW, I THINK THAT AS B AND G POINTS OUT THAT, UH, THE PARKING LOT, UH, AT THE NIKE CENTER AND THE DRIVEWAY GOING IN, UH, THAT'S PRETTY BAD.
RIGHT? YOU KNOW, YOU DON'T NEED AN EXPERT TO KNOW THAT THAT'S GOTTA BE REPAID.
NOW THEY CAN TELL US TO WHAT EXTENT WE CAN BILL AND THIS, THAT, AND THE OTHER.
AND THE SAME APPLIES TO THAT GREEN ROAD AT THE BEACH.
I THINK BETWEEN NOW AND THE DATE, YOU KNOW, THAT WE ACTUALLY NEED THE INFORMATION WHEN WE START NARROWING DOWN THESE NUMBERS, EVEN MORE, ALL HANDS THAT CAN BE ON DECK ARE APPRECIATED.
AND I THINK THAT'S THE APPROACH WE SHOULD BE TAKING, ESPECIALLY WITH THESE LARGE PROJECTS.
I THINK WE ALL AGREE THAT, YOU KNOW, THIS IS SOMETHING THAT WE NEED TO LOOK AT, BUT WHEN IT COMES TO, ESPECIALLY THESE VERY LARGE PROJECTS, WE NEED TO COLLABORATE.
WE NEED TO WORK WITH ADVISORY BOARDS.
AND ON THIS ONE, YOU KNOW, THE INFORMATION CAME LATE, SOME OF THE DATA WAS CONFLICTING OR INCOMPLETE FOR ME.
THERE'S STILL SOME GAPS FOR ME WHERE I'M JUST, I'M NOT COMFORTABLE RAISING THAT.
UM, BUT I DON'T THINK THAT SHOULD BE OFF THE, OFF THE TABLE FOR THE FUTURE.
IT'S SOMETHING THAT WE NEED TO, LIKE WE WERE TALKING ABOUT COMPREHENSIVE PLAN, SOMETHING THAT NEEDS TO BE REGULARLY MAINTAINED AND LOOKED AT, UM, TO DEVELOP A, A THOROUGH PLAN.
UM, YOU KNOW, I DO APPRECIATE YOU GETTING GUYS LOOKING AT, UH, COMPREHENSIVE PAVING PLAN THAT WE HAVE COMPILED.
IT'S NOT BEEN DONE, UH, TO YOUR POINT, UH, WELL, UH, OTHER TOWNS HAVEN'T DONE IT.
THEY'RE GONNA BE IN THE SAME ISSUE AS THE TOWN OF HAMBURG IS GOING TO BE RELATIVE TO THEIR INFRASTRUCTURE UNTIL SUCH TIME THAT THEY GET ON BOARD WITH THE MAINTENANCE.
THIS STARTED BACK IN 2018 WHEN I HAD THE TWO STUDIES DONE.
I'VE BEEN WORKING ON THIS FOR TWO YEARS NOW.
WE REALLY DON'T HAVE A CHOICE RELATIVE TO THIS.
IT'S EITHER WE PAY NOW OR WE ARE GOING TO PAY AN ORDER OF MAGNITUDE MORE IN THE FUTURE AND IT'LL BE ON THE BACKS OF THE TAXPAYERS.
WELL, UH, WE DID BENCHMARK, WE BENCHMARK WITH NEW YORK STATE, DOT, AS I MENTIONED, SATURDAY, DOT HAD OFTEN BEEN IN THE RECONSTRUCTION BUSINESS.
IT'S THE SAME AS AN ARTICLE IN YESTERDAY'S PAPER THAT SAYS VERY CLEARLY, THIS MEANS ALREADY CRUMBLING.
INFRASTRUCTURE WILL BECOME EVEN MORE EXPENSIVE IN THE FUTURE TO FIX.
WHEN MONEY IS AVAILABLE, THE MONEY IS AVAILABLE, YOU CAN DO THE BOND.
IT IS COMMON PRACTICE, UH, BUT MANY OF THE TOWNS AROUND HERE IS BOND FOR THE PAID WELL, BETTER.
YOU SAID, LEMME JUST, LEMME JUST FINISH PLEASE.
UM, WE CAN TALK ABOUT REDUCTIONS, UH, FROM CHIPS AND WHATNOT, AND THERE'S DEFINITELY A POSSIBILITY OF THAT.
AS A MATTER OF FACT, THAT 20% IS CONFIRMED NOW, UH, CHIPS, UH, EWR AND PAVE NEW YORK ARE BEING CAPPED AT A 20% REDUCTION.
[01:20:01]
THE BURDEN ON THE HIGHWAY DEPARTMENT, WHEN I FACTOR IN THE $60,000 THAT WE HAD TO, THIS WAS, THIS WAS A REQUESTED LAST YEAR FOR THIS YEAR'S BUDGET.TO GET RID OF THAT BRUSH PILE BEHIND THE HIGHWAY DEPARTMENT COST US $60,000 THAT CAME DIRECTLY OUT OF THE HIGHWAY FUND, COUPLED WITH THE 20% REDUCTION FROM, UH, CHIPS, UH, EMERGENCY WINTER RECOVERY AND PA NEW YORK TO A TOTAL OF $138,000 THAT COMES RIGHT OFF THE BOTTOM FOR US TO BE ABLE TO DO PAVING THIS YEAR GOING FORWARD.
IT'S REALLY NOT THAT NEW OF A NOVEL IDEA.
THE IDEA IS FUNDAMENTALLY SIMPLE, GET INTO THE MAINTENANCE BUSINESS AS OPPOSED TO GETTING INTO THE RECONSTRUCTION BUSINESS.
IF WE SPEND THE MONEY NOW, I ACTUALLY THINK PUTTING IN THE REQUEST FOR 6.2 MILLION AS WE'VE DONE HERE, AND I KNOW YOU'VE ONLY HAD A FEW DAYS, BUT THIS WAS A MONUMENTAL EFFORT YOU'VE GOTTEN UNTIL OCTOBER 23RD TO RATCHET THAT BACK DOWN.
I THINK YOU'RE DOING THE TOWN RESIDENTS A SIGNIFICANT DISSERVICE WITHOUT AT LEAST LETTING THIS ADVISORY BOARD TAKE A LOOK AT WHAT WE'VE DONE.
AND THEN YOU CAN VERY SIMPLY, BEFORE OCTOBER 23RD, REDUCE IT DOWN TO 300,000, WHICH WAS THE NUMBER YOU HAD BEFORE YOU EVEN SAW THIS.
WE GET IN THE BUSINESS OF MAINTENANCE AT A FRACTION OF THE COST, AND WE'RE GONNA BE DOING RECONSTRUCTION WORK AT SIGNIFICANTLY HIGHER DOLLARS.
AND THE TOWNS THAT DON'T DO IT, WE'RE GONNA BE JUST LIKE THEM.
AND THE ONES THAT DO, WE HAVE AN OPPORTUNITY TO LEAD AND NOT FOLLOW.
REGARDING THE LED PROJECT AND THE COST, I NOW HEARD FROM 0.76 TO 1.5, SO HOW DOES THAT FACTOR IN? AND AS, AS FAR AS GETTING COLLABORATION, THE COLLABORATION YOU SHOULD BE LOOKING AT IS WITH THE RESIDENTS.
YOU'VE HAD RESIDENTS HERE HOLDING SIGNS UP.
I, I DON'T EVEN UNDERSTAND IT.
UH, WE HAVE THOUSANDS OF PHONE CALLS A YEAR AND A GREAT DEAL OF THEM HAVE TO DO WITH THE ROADS.
I DON'T KNOW ONE PHONE CALL WE'VE GOTTEN RELATIVE TO LED LIGHTING.
THE INFRASTRUCTURE, AS I POINTED OUT, IS THE MOST VALUABLE ASSET THE TOWN OWNS AT APPROXIMATELY $167,000 FIVE, $167 MILLION.
I JUST GOT A QUOTE TO TAKE A LOOK AT IDLE BOOK THAT WAS DONE TODAY.
WEST ARNOLD 1900 LINEAR FEE FOR US TO TAKE OVER OWNERSHIP OF THAT, THE PRICE IS 1,050,000.
AS A SIDE NOTE, WELL, LET ME, LET ME JUST POINT OUT TO YOU THEN.
THE LED LIGHTING, UH, PROJECT REPRESENTS AN INFRASTRUCTURE UPGRADE THAT IS NOT ONLY NECESSARY, BUT SAVES US MORE THAN A HALF A MILLION DOLLARS A YEAR IN UTILITY PAYMENTS, WHICH GIVES US THE MONEY TO UNDERTAKE ALL OF THESE BONDED PROJECTS.
SO IN OTHER WORDS, IT'S THE SAVINGS FROM LED THAT ENABLES US TO GET INTO THE BOND MARKET THIS YEAR IN ADDITION TO THE HISTORICALLY LOW INTEREST RATES.
IT TOOK US MORE THAN A YEAR AND A HALF OF STUDY AND DEBATE AND PRESENTATIONS TO MAKE A DETERMINATION ON THAT WITH REGARD TO THE ADVISORY COMMITTEE THAT, UH, UH, HAS BEEN APPOINTED.
UH, IT'S GOING TO TAKE FROM MY POINT OF VIEW A LOT OF STUDY AND A LOT OF REPORTS AND A LOT OF SPECIAL MEETINGS FOR ME TO FEEL COMFORTABLE TO SHIFT TO THAT NEW PARADIGM FOR 6.2 MILLION, UH, MILLION DOLLARS.
UH, WAIT, LET ME FINISH PLEASE.
YOU INDICATE THAT PEOPLE CAME IN HERE TO COMPLAIN ABOUT, ABOUT THE ROADS.
ONE THING THEY WEREN'T AWARE OF IS THE SUBSTANTIAL UPGRADE THAT THE TOWN MADE OVER A FOUR YEAR PERIOD TO INCREASE OUR ALLOTMENT FOR PAVING 59% INCREASE OVER A FOUR YEAR PERIOD IS PRETTY GOOD.
WE UNDERSTAND YOU'VE GOT THAT, THAT, UH, UH, THAT PILE THAT, THAT YOU WERE TALKING ABOUT, THE DEC PROBLEM, WE'RE WILLING TO COME UP WITH AS MUCH AS $300,000 TO BE APPROPRIATED FOR P GOING FORWARD NEXT YEAR, WHICH WILL MORE THAN MAKE UP FOR ANYTHING YOU'VE LOST IN TERMS
[01:25:01]
OF SHIPS, UH, CUTTING AND SO FORTH AND SO ON.BUT IF YOU'RE GONNA TAKE ME TO A WHOLE NEW PARADIGM, I WANNA MAKE DARN SURE THAT $6 MILLION IS GONNA BE SPENT INTELLIGENTLY AND THAT'S NOT GONNA BE DONE IN A COUPLE OF MONTHS.
AT LEAST NOT TO MY SATISFACTION.
I DON'T CARE HOW SKILLED THESE PEOPLE ARE.
OKAY, WELL JIM, THE BOTTOM LINE IS THE PROPOSAL THAT WE HAVE TAKES CARE OF ALL THE POOR ROADS.
AND THE FACT IS, IS THAT THE SNOWBALL'S GETTING BIGGER.
WE CANNOT ADDRESS THE POOR ROADS, NOR CAN WE ADDRESS THE DEPENDING FAIR ROADS THAT ARE GOING TO BE VERY SOON POOR.
AND WE'RE ALREADY, IT'S ALREADY BEGINNING TO REVEAL ITSELF AS EARLY AS THIS YEAR.
THE GLENDALE AREA HAD A NUMBER OF FAIR ROADS TWO YEARS AGO.
THEY'VE NOW DIPPED BELOW POOR.
WE WE'RE PAVING THAT WHOLE AREA.
THE SIMPLE FACT IS WE DON'T HAVE THE MONEY TO TAKE CARE OF WHAT WE HAVE BEFORE US.
SO REGARDLESS OF HOW MUCH IS BEING ALLOCATED, MY PROPOSAL DOES NOT INCREASE THE TAXES, HIGHWAY TAXES FOR ANY RESIDENT AND SOLVES A FUNDAMENTAL PROBLEM THAT HAS EXISTED IN THIS TOWN FOR DECADES.
WELL, YEAH, BUT AT ONE POINT, AND THEN WE WE'LL CALL DRAW AN END TO THIS.
WELL, JIM, THAT IS SO WAIT, I DON'T KNOW WHY YOU, TED, PLEASE, I DON'T NEED A LECTURE ON BEHAVIORAL SCIENCE FOR YOU.
UH, THE FACT OF THE MATTER IS, IS THAT WE ASSUME IN READING YOUR NUMBERS, THAT THEY'RE CONSTANT, AS I JUST POINTED OUT TO MIKE PETRI.
AND AS YOU'VE ACKNOWLEDGED, WE'RE GONNA LOSE 20% ON PAVING PAY NEW YORK, UH, PROBABLY ON EXTREME WINTER RECOVERY AND ALSO ON CHIPS.
WE'RE NOT GOING TO BE ABLE TO CLOSE THE MORTGAGE AT THE QUOTED RATE.
THE LOCK-IN RATE IS GOING TO BE HIGHER THAN 0.76% MOST LIKELY.
THEREFORE, THE NUMBERS HAVE TO ALL BE REWORKED.
SECONDLY, THE COST FOR MAINTENANCE AND UPKEEP, IF YOU SHIFTED TO A NEW PARADIGM, IF IN FACT ALL ROADS CAN BE PAVED IN ONE YEAR, WHICH I'M DUBIOUS ABOUT SHIFTING TO A NEW PARADIGM, I'M NOT SO SURE THAT ALL THE COSTS INHERENT IN THAT SHIFT HAVE BEEN FULLY, FULLY VETTED.
SO, YOU KNOW, WE, GIVEN I THINK A LOT OF TIME AND CONSIDERATION OVER A THREE OR FOUR DAY PERIOD TO THIS MULTIMILLION DOLLAR PROPOSAL, WE NEED TO GIVE SEVERAL MORE MONTHS OF CONSIDERATION TO ALL OF ITS RAMIFICATIONS.
SO, YOU KNOW, THAT'S JUST MY VIEWPOINT.
YOU'VE HEARD EVERYBODY ELSE, WE'VE HEARD YOU WELL TIM, THEY ARE, THEY AREN'T FULLY, THAT THESE ARE NUMBERS WE GOT FROM THE COUNTY BID PRICING.
WE WOULD EXPECT 'EM TO BECOME TIGHTER.
CERTAINLY OVER TIME, ESPECIALLY WHEN WE ENGAGE A CONTRACTOR, WE'VE ALREADY SHOWN THAT A CONTRACTOR CAN DO THIS PAVING, UH, VERY EASILY BASED UPON THEIR CAPACITY.
THE ISSUE OF WHETHER OR NOT A CONTRACTOR CAN DO A WORK HERE NOT, ALRIGHT, OKAY, WE'RE ABOUT READY TO START.
WE GOT A COUPLE MINUTES TO GO BEFORE SEVEN, RIGHT? YES.
THAT SHOULD THOSE CLOCK AND YET JUST THERE THE WRONG PERSON FRONT THE AIR CONDITIONER, THE TIMES.
[01:30:08]
AND JUST, YOU KNOW, THAT GROUP IS MORE THAN AMENABLE TO COME BACK AND, AND, AND ACTUALLY MEET WITH US.WE CAN SCHEDULE THAT AT WHATEVER POINT THEY FEEL COMFORTABLE OVER THE NEXT HOW MANY EVER MONTHS, WHATEVER.
THEY'LL, YOU KNOW, ONCE WE GET THROUGH THE BUDGET AND WE KNOW WHERE WE STAND IN NOVEMBER, WE CAN THEN SIT AND TALK WITH THEM AS WE MOVE INTO THE NEW YEAR.
AND THEY MIGHT EVEN HAVE SOME GUIDANCE AS TO HOW APPROACH ADJUST ADDITIONAL, UM, ON HOW TO PROCEED THAT THAT'S HAVE A FULL UNDERSTANDING OF THE LANE MILES.
YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN? IT'S TRUE.
LISTEN, BUT BY THE WAY, THAT'S TRUE AS WE'RE WALTER POINTED THIS OUT THERE, I, I SHOULD HAVE MENTIONED TO ALL OF US, BUT MAYBE YOU ALREADY KNEW IT.
BOND RESOLUTIONS ARE TO BE ADOPTED BY AT LEAST A TWO THIRDS VOTE OF THE ENTIRE MEMBERSHIP OF THE BOARD WITHOUT TAKING INTO CONSIDERATION ANY TEMPORARY VACANCIES.
THEREFORE, FOUR AFFIRMATIVE VOTES ARE REQUIRED FOR ADOPTION OF THE BONDS.

UH, THAT IS OUT THERE, WHICH IS ALL WORK THAT WE CAN DO FROM THE SURFACE WITHOUT CROSSING INTO THAT WATER LEVEL THAT MAKES US REQUIRE A FEDERAL PERMIT.
UH, SO I HAD A CONTRACTOR LOOK AT IT AND I'M EXPECTING A QUOTE THIS WEEK FOR THOSE TWO ITEMS FOR THAT.
NOW GIVEN THE UH, THE LAKE AVENUE PROJECT, WE'LL OPEN THE BIDS ON FRIDAY.
UH, UH, WHEN DO YOU ANTICIPATE AWARDING THE CONTRACT AND WHEN CAN YOU GIVE US A GUESSTIMATE OF WHEN THE WORK WILL START? WELL, THE INTENT WOULD BE TO BE ON THE NEXT TOWN BOARD MEETING FOR THE AWARD.
SO, WHICH I BELIEVE IS THE 28TH.
AND THEN PROBABLY A COUPLE WEEKS THEREAFTER FOR THE WORK TO A COUPLE WEEKS THERE, THERE IS SOME SHOP DRAWING REQUIREMENTS THAT THEY HAVE TO SUBMIT MATERIALS TO MAKE SURE THAT WE'RE GETTING EXACTLY WHAT IS LAID OUT.
'CAUSE IT'S ALSO WHAT WAS APPROVED BY COUNTY HIGHWAY AND EVERYONE INVOLVED, SO, OKAY.
UH, THERE'LL BE A LITTLE BIT OF THAT BEFORE WE ALLOW THEM TO ACTUALLY START THE WORK.
UH, TED CASEY, I JUST WANNA THANK THE BOARD FOR CONSIDERING, UH, THE COMPREHENSIVE PAVING PLAN.
I DO LOOK FORWARD TO WORKING WITH THE, THE BOND COMMITTEE OR WHOMEVER ON THE, UH, BOARD OVER THE NEXT FEW MONTHS AND MAYBE WE CAN REVISIT THIS, UH, AT THAT TIME.
UH, IT'S CERTAINLY WORTHWHILE.
UM, JUST WANT TO ASK A QUESTION, UH, REGARDING BRENNER UH, WALT WITH UCC DOING THE WORK.
I WANNA MAKE SURE, DO WE NEED TO BID THAT OUT OR ARE WE FINE? I DON'T KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT THE PROJECT THE FIRST TIME.
ACTUALLY THE PRICE IS ABOUT 64,000, UH, FOR THEM TO DO.
NORMALLY WHEN, LIKE FOR WILL IT, FOR EXAMPLE, UH, THE PRICING IS GOING THROUGH UH, ERIE COUNTY BID LIST.
UH, SO IT'S NOT REQUIRED AT THAT POINT, BUT I WASN'T SURE ABOUT BRENNER AND SAM DO YOU BELIEVE THAT? UH, IT DOES JUST BASED ON THE DOLLAR AMOUNT? UM, IF YOU, IF YOU USE A STATE OR A COUNTY CONTRACT PRICE, YOU DON'T HAVE TO BUT AT THAT DOLLAR AMOUNT, OTHERWISE, UNLESS YOU'RE USING ONE OF THOSE, I WOULD BELIEVE SO.
SO WALTER WANT TO FORWARD YOU, UH, CC'S PROPOSAL AND YOU CAN, YOU LET ME KNOW WHAT WE DO PLEASE.
OKAY, JUDGE JENNIFER, NOTHING TO REPORT.
OBVIOUSLY WE HAVE A LOT OF PROJECTS GOING ON OUT THERE TODAY.
WE HAVE OUR, THE HEALTH INSURANCE BROKER RFPS, SO WE WILL BE EVALUATING THOSE.
WE HAVE OUR DEPARTMENTAL BUDGET MEETINGS THAT WE'RE WORKING ON THIS WEEK.
UH, CONGRATULATIONS TO ALYSSA STRAUS.
SHE DID HAVE A BABY GIRL ABOUT A WEEK AND A HALF AGO.
SO, UM, IN THE MEANTIME, UM, OUR DEPARTMENT, UM, IS HANDLING ISSUES, UM, THAT COME UP FOR EMPLOYEES AND ALYSSA IS UM, ALSO STILL DOING SOME WORK AS NEEDED AS WELL.
UM, SO WE'RE HANDLING THAT AND AT THE NEXT TOWN BOARD MEETING WE'RE GOING TO CONTINUE UPDATING ALL OF YOU IN REGARDS TO THE DEBT ISSUANCE, UM, AND KIND OF HOW THAT WILL MOVE FORWARD AND PROCEED AS WELL AS THE NEXT MONTH'S WORTH OF BUDGET MONITORING.
WE WILL HAVE, UM, THAT INFORMATION FOR YOU AT THE NEXT BOARD MEETING AS WELL BOARD.
AND THEN, UM, RIGHT AFTER THAT YOUR BUDGET IS DUE, JIM, MM-HMM
SO THEN YOU'LL ALL HAVE THE SUPERVISOR'S BUDGET AS WELL TO START REVIEWING.
NO, I HAVE NOTHING AT ALL GOING ON RIGHT NOW.
AND MADAM CLERK, HOW ABOUT YOU? UM, I JUST WANNA COMMEND MY STAFF FOR THEIR HARD WORK.
UM, I THINK THAT EVERYBODY JUST KIND OF TAKES US FOR GRANTED.
THAT STUFF JUST GETS DONE, BUT WE WERE HERE TILL SIX O'CLOCK FRIDAY NIGHT TRYING TO GET THOSE RESOLUTIONS IN.
SO I JUST WANNA COMMEND MY STAFF FOR THE GREAT JOB THAT THEY DID, UH, AND DOING THAT ALONG WITH RECEIVING THE TAX BILLS LATE, WE DIDN'T GET 'EM UNTIL THURSDAY AFTERNOON.
SO SCHOOL TAX BILLS WILL BE GOING OUT TOMORROW.
SO I JUST WANNA REMIND HIM FOR THAT.
[03:00:01]
TO THANK YOU TOO.I'M SORRY I NEGLECTED TO DO THAT 'CAUSE I REALIZE YOU FOLKS WERE WORKING PAST THE, THE CLOSING HOUR ON FRIDAY TO GET THIS DONE.
SO I'M VERY GRATEFUL, GET A LOT OF GREAT SACRIFICE FROM A LOT OF PEOPLE.
UM, HOW ABOUT FROM THE FLOOR ITSELF? HAVE WE GOT ANY CIVILIANS HERE? ANYTHING TO BE SAID? ALRIGHT.
I'LL MAKE A MOTION TO ADJOURN.
SECOND, MS. FARRELL ON THE QUESTION.
THANK YOU EVERYBODY VERY MUCH.
