[00:00:03]
UM, WE DO HAVE THE ECD MEETING THAT WE HAD RESCHEDULED FROM, UH, LAST TIME, SO THAT'S AT 6 45.
HOLLY WILL SEND YOU A REMINDER OF THAT ON MONDAY.
UH, BUT NOTHING, UH, NO ACTION ITEMS. JUST OUR STANDARD UPDATE FROM KATHLEEN AND OVERVIEW OF THE FINANCES AND SUCH.
THANK YOU FOR RESCHEDULING THAT.
AS IT ENDED UP, THAT WOULD'VE BEEN REALLY VERY DIFFICULT.
AND, AND AS I TOLD ONE OF YOU, I TOLD THAT WAS OUR FAULT.
WE SHOULD HAVE CAUGHT THAT CONFLICT BEFORE WE EVER SCHEDULED IT FOR THAT.
NOBODY CAUGHT IT, SO IT'S OKAY, BUT WE CAUGHT IT IN TIME.
SO REGULAR MEETING, NO, UM, NO SWEARING INS OR, OR ANYTHING LIKE THAT.
SO NORMAL PRE STUFF, RIGHT? ALSO CONSENT ONE ITEM OF OLD BUSINESS.
SO CONSENT ITEM ONE IS JUST SECOND READING OF THE, ADOPTING THE NEW FLOOD MAPS.
UM, AT THE LAST TIME, I CAN'T REMEMBER IF IT WAS JUST BETWEEN TODD AND I OR WE DISCUSSED IT WAS, I HAD A QUESTION ABOUT THERE WERE NEW MAPS FOR OWL CREEK AND WHETHER THOSE WERE INCLUDED IN THIS.
WE ACTUALLY HAD ADOPTED THOSE.
TODD, YOU SAID BACK IN 2001? YEAH.
SO WE'VE GOT UPTODATE MAPS IN GENERAL FOR THE ENTIRE CITY AT THIS POINT.
UM, DIDN'T FEEL LIKE THERE WAS ANYTHING SIGNIFICANT ABOUT THIS, SO WE PUT IT ON CONSENT FOR A SECOND.
ITEMS THREE AND OR TWO AND THREE, I'M SORRY, ARE, UH, PUBLIC WORKS RELATED.
ON A CONTINUING LAST AGENDA ITEM, WE HAD SOME, UM, OTHER KIND OF MAINTENANCE CONTRACTS.
SAME THING HERE FOR TREE TRIMMING.
TODD WENT OUT AND ISSUED A REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS TO TRY TO GET A COUPLE, UH, FIRMS UNDER CONTRACT SO THAT WE CAN CALL ON WHEN NEEDED FOR TREE REMOVAL THAT EXCEEDS HIS, UH, THE CAPABILITIES, UH, OR THE AVAILABILITY OF HIS STAFF.
SO HE'S RECOMMENDING TWO CONTRACTS, ONE WITH FRANKLIN TREE SERVICE, AND THEN ITEM THREE IS MONSTER TREE SERVICE.
UM, THESE AGAIN, ARE AN AS NEEDED BASIS.
BOTH OF THEM HAVE A A DOLLAR ALLOCATION OF A HUNDRED THOUSAND.
THAT DOESN'T MEAN WE'LL SPEND A HUNDRED THOUSAND WITH EACH.
UH, IF WE DO SPEND A HUNDRED THOUSAND WITH EACH, OBVIOUSLY THERE'LL BE A BUDGET AMENDMENT AT THE END OF THE YEAR TO ADDRESS THAT.
UM, BUT THIS IS JUST TO HAVE THOSE RESOURCES AVAILABLE FOR TODD, UH, WHEN NEEDED.
AND, UM, TODD, ANY OTHER COMMENTS? NO, WE, WE PLANNED IT FOR PARKS AND POTENTIALLY PARKS, EVEN WATER PARK IF THEY NEEDED TO HAVE TREE REMOVED.
HOPEFULLY EVERYBODY CAN WORK UNDERNEATH THAT UMBRELLA.
IT SHOULD JUST EXPEDITE THE PROCESS, ESPECIALLY IF IT'S DANGEROUS OR HAZARDOUS OR STORM RELATED.
WE CAN, UH, PULL THE TRIGGER ON GETTING THAT TAKEN CARE OF SOONER THAN, AS YOU LOOK TO THIS NEXT FISCAL YEAR, ARE YOU CONTEMPLATING ADDING SOME MORE MONEY INTO YOUR BUDGET FOR THINGS LIKE THIS SINCE OUR GENERAL TREE CANOPY IS AGING? YEAH.
AND WE'RE HAVING TO DEAL WITH SOME MORE.
I KNOW WE HAD THAT WINTER THING A COUPLE YEARS AGO AND THAT PROMPTED SOME, IT'S A GREAT QUESTION.
I THINK I'M, WE'LL PROBABLY HAVE TO SCHEDULE A FOLLOW UP CONVERSATION WITH THE COMMISSION TO JUST BETTER UNDERSTAND WHAT Y'ALLS INTENT IS.
WE'VE KIND OF HAD A PHILOSOPHY OF NOT TAKING RESPONSIBILITY FOR TREES EVEN IN THE RIGHT OF WAY WHEN THEY'RE A PART OF SOMEBODY'S FINISHED LANDSCAPE.
PEOPLE ARE GENERALLY KIND OF POSSESSIVE OF THEIR TREES AND LANDSCAPE, DON'T WANT 'EM TOUCHED UNTIL SOMETHING DIES AND THEN SUDDENLY THEY WANT'S OUR PROBLEM.
UM, WE, WE DO NEED TO ADDRESS HAZARDS AND, AND KNOWN HAZARDS AND LIABILITIES AND THOSE TYPES OF THINGS, BUT WE'VE, WE'VE NOT REALLY PROGRAMMED FOR CONTINUED BLOCK TRIMMING MAINTENANCE TYPE PROGRAMS THAT YOU SEE IN OTHER MUNICIPALITIES.
SO TO ANSWER THAT QUESTION, WE CAN, BUT I THINK I NEED BETTER DIRECTION FROM Y'ALL.
AS HE SAID SO FAR, IT'S KIND OF BEEN CASE BY CASE.
WE'VE HAD SOME CLEARLY DEAD TREES THAT ARE TWO OR THREE FEET OFF THE ROAD THAT ARE IN SOMEBODY'S FRONT YARD.
THAT PERSON HAS SAID, IT'S NOT MY TREE, IT'S YOUR TREE.
WE DON'T WANNA NECESSARILY GO PROACTIVELY.
LIKE IF THEY TELL US IT'S, WE'LL GO TAKE A TREE DOWN OUT OF SOMEBODY'S YARD BECAUSE THEY SAY IT'S, WELL, IT'S IN THE RIGHT OF WAY.
I THOUGHT YOU SAID VISUALLY SEVERAL FEET OFF THE, WELL, I MEAN, THEIR PROBLEM THREE OR FOUR FEET OFF THE ROAD IS STILL IN THE RIGHT WAY.
THEY MAY HAVE EVEN PLANTED IT TO BE QUITE HONEST WITH YOU, DEPENDING ON THE SITUATION.
BUT IF IT'S DEAD AND A POTENTIAL HAZARD IN THE RIGHT OF WAY, WE'VE HAD THIS DISCUSSION, WE DON'T THINK WE CAN IGNORE THAT.
AND WE WORK WITH THEM TO TRY AND GET THEM TO ADDRESS THAT HAZARD FIRST.
BUT IN CERTAIN SITUATIONS WE JUST HAVE TO TAKE ACTION.
JUST TO CLARIFY, I TOOK IT, YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT JUST OUR TREES IN GENERAL ARE GETTING OLDER.
SO WE MAY HAVE, I DON'T, I'M SORRY.
UNDERST, DON'T WE REALLY WANNA CHANGE THE POLICY? I THINK IT'S JUST THAT
[00:05:01]
TREES ARE GETTING OLDER.SO WHAT USED TO COST 25,000 THAT WE NEED 35,000.
I DO THINK THAT WE SHOULD CREATE A LINE ITEM SPECIFICALLY FOR TREE REMOVAL OR TRIMMING.
UM, AS WE'VE SEEN THE EMERALD DASHBOARD AND OTHER DISEASES, AND YOU'RE RIGHT THAT THE TREE CANY IS JUST LARGER.
IT, IT CAN BE MORE COSTLY TO DO THINGS AND YEAH.
TO BE QUITE HONEST, CERTAIN AREAS, LIKE MURRAY LANE'S A GREAT EXAMPLE DOING WORK ALONG MURRAY LANE.
I REALLY DON'T HAVE THE CONFIDENCE IN MANY CONTRACTORS.
I, I'VE GOT CONFIDENCE IN A FEW AND THEY TEND TO BE THE MORE EXPENSIVE ONES, BUT THAT'S NOT A PLACE WHERE WE WANT TO CUT A CORNER 'CAUSE AGREE.
WE'RE TRYING TO KEEP IT OPEN TO TRAFFIC AND DO IT SAFELY.
WHICH SPEAKING OF IT LOOKS GREAT.
AND I TALKED TO SOME OF THE GUYS YESTERDAY WHO ARE WORKING ON THAT PROJECT AT THE, AT THE LUNCH, AT THE SAFETY CENTER AND THANK THEM AND IT JUST LOOKS GREAT AND I'M GETTING ALL KINDS OF COMPLIMENTS, SO.
WELL, YOU REMEMBER JUST, IT WASN'T A MONTH OR TWO AGO, Y'ALL APPROVED A SPECIFIC LIST OF SEVEN TREES AND THAT WAS LIKE $37,000, 12 OR 14 CITYWIDE, BUT SEVERAL ON MURRAY LANE.
SO YES, IT CAN QUICKLY ADD UP.
AND, AND WHAT WE TOLD TODD, HE'S LIKE, WELL, I DON'T HAVE MONEY IN MY BUDGET FOR THIS.
WE SAID, WELL, IF YOU NEED IT, WE'LL DEAL WITH IT AT THE END OF THE YEAR IN A BUDGET.
WELL, LET'S PUT IT IN AS HAZARDOUS TREE REMOVAL.
SO PEOPLE DON'T THINK WE'RE JUST GOING OUT AND REMOVING TREES.
I MEAN, LET'S PUT THAT PHRASE IT THAT WAY BECAUSE PEOPLE, SOME PEOPLE REALLY EYEBALL THE BUDGET LINE BY LINE.
SO, AND PARKS MIGHT, PARKS MIGHT WANT TO ADD A LINE ITEM AS WELL.
THEY DON'T GENERALLY HAVE A LINE ITEM SPECIFICALLY FOR TREES EITHER, AND THEY SEE THOSE DISEASES AND THINGS GROWING, YOU'RE DOING MORE.
SO MAYBE IT'S BEST TO JUST CARVE OUT AND SET ASIDE.
YOU GUYS KNOW MY NEIGHBORHOOD AND I'VE BEEN TO HOA LEADER THERE FOR A WHILE AND WE'LL BRING A TREE GUY OUT AND WE GET EVERYTHING TRIM TRIMMED UP.
AND TWO WEEKS LATER, ALL OF A SUDDEN THERE'S, THERE'S A TREE THAT'S, AND IT'S LIKE WE JUST HAD HIM OUT THERE AND IT JUST HAPPENS.
YOU KNOW, THAT'S, THAT'S OUR AGING TREE POPULATION, YOU KNOW? MM-HMM.
AND IN THE PARKS, OF COURSE IN THE MORE, IN THE NATURAL WATERED AREAS, THE TREE FALL MEAN WE DON'T WORRY ABOUT, IT'S JUST THE ONES THAT WOULD BE HAZARD TRAILS OR THE HAZARD FOR POTENTIAL LIABILITY USERS.
WELL, SPEAKING OF TREES, THE ONE AT THE LIBRARY, OUR NEW CHRISTMAS TREE GREW SO FAST.
I WAS SO SURPRISED WHEN I APPROACHING CHARLIE BROWN.
IT REALLY LOOKS CRITICAL WHEN OUR RODE MINES.
THAT I DON'T REMEMBER THE D THERE WAS A LITTLE BIT OF CONCERN.
WE HAD A LITTLE BIT OF DISEASE ON THAT.
I DON'T KNOW IF THERE STILL IS.
OR, SO WE, WE HAVE LEARNED THAT THAT DISEASE ACTUALLY CAN TRAVEL.
AND SO THE NEW ONE COULD BE SU SUBJECT TO THE SAME DISEASE THAT THE OLD ONE HAD.
AND WE'RE MONITORING THERE'S NOT MUCH YOU CAN DO ABOUT IT.
UM, SO WE'RE CROSSING OUR FINGERS AND HOPING FOR THE BEST, BUT WE DO WANT TO, AFTER THE TREE LIGHTING, REMOVE THE OLD ONE.
UM, BUT WE THOUGHT MAYBE THE COMMUNITY NEEDS TO SEE THAT THE OLD ONE IS INDEED DEAD AND SO IT'LL IT IS, IT'LL GO AWAY
AND I WAS STUNNED AT HOW FAST IT WAS.
I THOUGHT IT'D BE ANOTHER YEAR OR TWO BEFORE WE COULD USE IT.
WELL THINK IT'LL BE NICE 'CAUSE WE'LL ALSO HAVE A MUCH BIGGER AREA TO KINDA YEAH.
'CAUSE NOW YOU'VE GOT PEOPLE'S LIT THOUGH AND THERE'S A LOT OF GRASS THAT COULD WALK OVER.
WE HAVEN'T HAD THE BEST CONDITIONS.
HUH? THERE'S BEEN A LOT OF HEAT AND DROUGHT.
AND SO WE'VE DONE OUR BEST TO TRY AND KEEP IT WATERED AND KEEP IT HEALTHY.
IF WE'RE TAKING DOWN THE OLD ONE AFTER THIS, ARE WE GONNA GO IN AND PUT ANOTHER ONE IN THAT PLACE? OR IS IT DISEASED AND WE NEED TO NOT LIKE, IS THAT AREA WE MIGHT LOOK AT A DIFFERENT SPECIES.
UM, THAT PARTICULAR SPECIES OF TREE ISN'T REALLY, YOU KNOW, FOR THIS AREA, BUT IT MAKES IT A NICER CHRISTMAS TREE.
WE DID KIND OF SAY WHEN WE PUT THAT ONE IN ABOUT EVERY SEVEN YEARS WE WOULD TRY AND GET THE NEXT ONE ON DECK.
SO WE ALWAYS HAVE SOMETHING TO GET TO FALL BACK TO.
I JUST HOPE THAT THIS DISEASE THING DOESN'T KIND OF CROSS POLLINATE TOO MUCH.
THAT'S WHY I'M WONDERING IF WE NEED TO GO ON AND PUT A DIFFERENT SPECIES IN ELSEWHERE.
I THINK IT'S PARTICULAR TO THAT.
WELL, MAYBE THE NEXT ONE SHOULD BE A DIFFERENT SPECIES.
SO THAT'S ITEMS TWO AND THREE.
ITEM FOUR IS JUST A RENEWAL, KIND OF FOLLOWING UP FROM LAST BEING OF OUR VISION INSURANCE, WHICH IS FULLY INSURED, NOT THE SELF-INSURED PLAN LIKE Y'ALL APPROVED LAST WEEK.
SO THIS IS VISION INSURANCE THROUGH BLUE CROSS.
SO THAT KEEPS OUR HEALTH AND VISION TOGETHER.
UH, NO CHANGE IN PREMIUM SAME AS THE LAST SEVERAL YEARS.
AND THE ANNUAL COST OF THAT IS ESTIMATED AT 35,000.
UH, ITEM FIVE IS THE AGREEMENT WITH NOLANSVILLE COLLEGE GROVE UTILITY DISTRICT RELATED TO THE RELOCATION OF
[00:10:01]
THEIR WATER LINES OUT ALONG RAGSDALE ROAD.THIS MAY OR MAY NOT BE VERY INTUITIVE AND I'LL PROBABLY HAVE TO CALL, UM, SARAH CATHERINE HERE.
BUT THIS IS IN FRONT OF GLEN ALLEN, CORRECT? YEAH.
SO THE TWO ENTRANCES INTO GLEN ALLEN AND NOLANSVILLE HAS A WATER LINE HERE, THIS ORANGE LINE HERE THAT BECOMES THE GREEN LINE.
SO THE ORANGE LINE PART OF THIS IS OUTSIDE OF THE RIGHT OF WAY IN A PRIVATE NOLANSVILLE EASEMENT.
SO WE HAVE TO BEAR THE FULL COST OF RELOCATING THAT BECAUSE IT'S IN THEIR EASEMENT.
AND I GUESS THESE CROSSINGS, SARAH CATHERINE, ARE IN THE RIGHT OF WAY.
THEY BEAR THE COST OF THAT BECAUSE IT'S ALREADY IN THE RIGHT OF WAY.
THEY'RE ALSO UPSIZING THE SIZE OF THIS LINE FROM A EIGHT TO A SIX INCH PVC TO EIGHT INCH DUCT WIRE.
SO THAT'S CONSIDERED BETTERMENT.
SO THEY PAY THAT INCREMENTAL COST DIFFERENCE BETWEEN WHAT IT WOULD COST TO PUT THE EXACT SAME THING IN PLACE VERSUS THE ADDED CAPACITY.
AND WE'VE KINDA LAID THAT OUT IN THE BULLET POINTS OF THE AGENDA ITEM THERE OF HOW MUCH, WHAT SHARE WE WE PAY OF EACH PART OF THIS.
THE GRAND RESULT OF ALL THIS IS WHEN YOU AWARDED THE CONTRACT TO CLEAR A COUPLE, UH, MONTH OR SO AGO, THE COST OF ALL THE WATERLINE WORK WAS 363,375.
WHEN YOU DIVIDE OUT WHO'S RESPONSIBLE FOR WHAT.
UM, OUR COST WILL BE 167,000 5 0 8 OF THAT AND NOLANSVILLE WILL REIMBURSE US THEN 195,867.
THEY'VE ALREADY AGREED TO DO THAT.
I MEAN THIS, THIS AGREEMENT SPELLS ALL THAT OUT AND THEY'RE, THEY, KRISTEN AND THEIR ATTORNEY AND SARAH CATHERINE AND THEIR STAFF WORKED IT IT ALL OUT.
SO EVERYBODY'S IN AGREEMENT WITH THOSE NUMBERS.
SO ANY QUESTIONS ON THAT? SO I GUESS GLEN ALLEN IS THE ONLY BRENTWOOD SUBDIVISION ALONG RAGSDALE THAT STAYS ON NOLANSVILLE IS THAT EVERYTHING ELSE IS, IS EITHER ALREADY HAS OR WILL TRANSFER OVER TO US AND THAT WHAT'S IN THEIRS AND WHAT'S IN OURS GOES BACK 20 YEARS TO AN AGREEMENT WHEN WE TOOK OVER ALL THAT AREA BACK IN FIRST, WHAT WAS IT? TWO OH 2007.
ITEM SIX IS AN AGREEMENT WITH SPRY POINT FOR A NEW UTILITY BILLING SYSTEM, WHICH INCLUDES A CUSTOMER PORTAL.
THIS HAS BEEN A ONGOING PROJECT FINANCE, UM, A LITTLE BIT OF TECHNOLOGY AND WATER SEWER FOR THE LAST COUPLE YEARS.
UM, THE EXISTING UTILITY BILLING SYSTEM IS 13 YEARS OLD.
UH, DOESN'T HAVE A LOT OF FUNCTIONS WE'VE BEEN LOOKING FOR.
MULTIPLE VENDORS HAVE SETTLED ON SPRY POINT, TRIED TO LIST OUT THERE SOME OF THE, UM, BENEFITS OF IT.
THE BIGGEST ONE FROM A CUSTOMER STANDPOINT IS AN ACTUAL TRUE CUSTOMER PORTAL NOW, WHICH MOST UTILITIES HAVE WHERE YOU CAN GO ON AND SEE YOUR USAGE AND GET ALERTS AND ALL THAT KIND OF STUFF.
SO THIS IS WHERE WE'VE TALKED ABOUT THIS FOR A WHILE, WHERE A CUSTOMER CAN GO IN, YOU KNOW, WITH THE AUTOMATED METER SYSTEM WE HAVE NOW, WE'RE TAKING READS EVERY 15 MINUTES, 30 MINUTES, WELL METERS READ EVERY MINUTE, AND THEN WE CAN UPLOAD DATA HOWEVER WE WANT.
SO THE CUSTOMER COULD GO IN AND SET UP TARGET POINTS AND SAYS, OKAY, NOTIFY ME IF MY USAGE EXCEEDS THIS RATE OR THAT RATE OR WHATEVER.
AS OF NOW, WE'RE, WE'VE BEEN MUCH BETTER AT ABLE TO IDENTIFY LEAKS WITHIN A DAY OR TWO AS OPPOSED TO A MONTH IN THE OLD WAY WHERE YOU HAD TO WAIT FOR ME TO READING.
SO WE CAN ALREADY DO THAT, BUT THE CUSTOMER CAN SET UP THEIR OWN PORTAL.
UM, JUST A LOT OF OTHER BENEFITS.
AGAIN, KAREN AND, AND CHRIS AND DAVID ARE HERE, IF YOU WANT TO ASK MORE SPECIFIC QUESTIONS ABOUT HOW IT WILL WORK AND WHAT THE BENEFITS ARE.
UM, TOTAL COST IMPLEMENTATION COST IS 353,000.
THEN THE ANNUAL MAINTENANCE COST IS KIND OF 81,000 AND IT GOES UP YEAR TO YEAR.
YOU'VE GOT A FIVE YEAR SCHEDULE IN THAT, IN YOUR AGENDA ITEM THERE THAT STARTS AT 81 AND THEN ADDS A LITTLE BIT EACH YEAR OVER THE FIRST FIVE YEARS OF THE AGREEMENT.
UM, THIS IS A WATER SEWER FUND COST OF COURSE.
UH, TOTAL COST OVER THE FIVE YEARS OR THE FIRST YEAR IS $434,600, ABOUT 12 MONTH IMPLEMENTATION PERIOD.
ASSUMING WE GET STARTED HERE, UH, NO LATER THAN JANUARY, ANYTHING MORE? UH, NO.
IT'S JUST, UH, IT'S KIND OF AN OUTDATED SYSTEM WE'RE USING RIGHT NOW.
THERE'S BEEN A LOT OF TECHNOLOGICAL ADVANCEMENTS
[00:15:01]
SINCE THEN THAT OUR CURRENT VENDOR HAS NOT KEPT UP WITH.SO THESE ARE, THIS IS A LOT OF FUNCTIONALITY THAT IS, IS VERY MUCH NEEDED.
DOES THIS PROVIDE ANY SAVINGS, UM, ON YOUR END IN TERMS OF LIKE LABOR OR WORK YOU ALL HAVE TO DO OR OUR TEAM HAS TO DO DOWNSTAIRS THAT WOULD MAYBE OFFSET SOME OF THE EXPENSES? YES, AND I MEAN THESE ANSWERS ABSOLUTELY.
AND FROM OUR PERSPECTIVE AND THE OPERATION SIDE, AS YOU CAN IMAGINE, THE, WE'RE READING THOSE METERS ARE COLLECTING ALL THAT DATA.
AND SO WE GOT ALL THIS READING DATA, THE COMMUNITY AND, AND THE RESIDENTS AND CUSTOMERS ARE, ARE BECOMING EDUCATED.
WE HAVE THIS DATA AND THEY KNOW WE'RE READING THEIR METERS.
SO WE GET CALLS ALL DAY LONG AND SOMEBODY WILL CALL, HEY, I THINK MY BILL LAST WEEK OR LAST MONTH MAY HAVE WENT UP.
DO YOU JUST GET ALL THESE QUESTIONS AND WHEN THERE'S A LOT OF ADMIN TIME, SOMEBODY HAS TO SIT DOWN, GO THROUGH THEIR DATA AND THEN RESPOND TO THAT QUESTION.
AND WITH THIS CUSTOMER BILLING, UH, AND THEIR ACCESS TO THEIR OWN RECORDS AT SOME LEVEL WHERE, YOU KNOW, WE SET A ADMIN PERMISSIONS AND STUFF, THEY CAN JUST GO INTO THEIR ACCOUNT AND SEE WHAT THEY'RE DOING EVERY DAY AND, AND IT RELIEVES US AND FREES US UP, YOU KNOW, THAT IN THAT TIME.
AND SO THAT'S VERY INEFFICIENT FOR WHAT WE'RE DOING RIGHT NOW AS OPPOSED TO, AND THAT'S JUST ONE SMALL ASPECT OF IT, BUT YEAH.
SO IT DOES BRING THE EFFICIENCY BACKEND AND WILL SAVE COST OVERALL FROM, UM, CUSTOMER SERVICE PERSPECTIVE LABOR.
IS THERE ANY OTHER THING LIKE THAT, THAT THE RESIDENTS MIGHT WANNA KNOW ABOUT THAT HELPS DEFER THE COST? WELL, THERE MAY BE SAVINGS ON POSTAGE AND PRINTING IF, UM, PEOPLE PAY ONLINE OR THEY, UM, BILL FROM ONLINE.
UM, WE HAVE A BETTER CUSTOMER PORTAL.
WE'LL, WE'LL SEE MORE CUSTOMERS SWITCHING OVER FROM PAPER BILLS TO, UM, UH, ELECTRONIC STATEMENTS.
UH, ANOTHER THING RELATED TO THE PORTAL IS, YOU KNOW, YOU MAY HAVE, IT PUTS MORE CONTROL IN THE CUSTOMER'S HANDS.
YOU MAY HAVE PEOPLE GOING OUT OF TOWN ON VACATION OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT, AND OF COURSE WE DON'T KNOW THEY'RE GOING OUT OF TOWN, BUT THEY MAY BE ABLE TO GO INTO THEIR PORTAL AND SAY, HEY, UH, SEND ME ALERT IF ANY WATER GETS USED DURING THIS TIME PERIOD.
UM, AND SO THAT'S SOMETHING THAT THEY COULD GET AUTOMATED, UH, ALERTS ON THAT.
THAT'S SOMETHING THAT WE CAN'T PROVIDE TO THEM.
IS THERE A COST FOR SIGNING UP FOR A CH UH, AND OR CREDIT CARD? THERE IS NOT A COST FOR SIGNING UP FOR A CH UM, CREDIT CARD THERE, THERE IS A COST.
SO WE PASS THAT COST ALONG TO THE CUSTOMER AS A CONVENIENCE FEE.
IT'S CURRENTLY, UM, 3 95, UH, PER TRANSACTION, $3 95 CENTS.
OH, IT'S CUSTOMER SERVICE ORIENTED.
AND CAN THEY CHECK ON THE IRRIGATION SYSTEMS THERE AND SEE IF THEY, YOU KNOW, DON'T THEY HAVE TO GET THOSE CHECKED EVERY YEAR? ISN'T THAT REQUIRED? UH, YEAH, THEY HAVE TO HAVE AN ANNUAL INSPECTION, BUT CAN THEY FIND THAT INFORMATION OUT IF THEY THINK NOW, WHEN DID I LAST HAVE THAT? CAN THEY GO TO THIS SITE AND FIND IT NOW? I MEAN THE, THE INSPECTION IS AND TESTING OF THE BACKFLOW DEVICES IS AUTOMATED.
UM, THE, THAT INSPECTION AND TESTING, ANNUAL INSPECTION AND TESTING OF ALL THOSE DEVICES IS, I MEAN, FAIRLY AUTOMATED ON OUR END AND THAT WE SEND OUT NOTIFICATIONS EVERY YEAR AND SAY, HEY, WE'RE GONNA BE HERE, BUT YOU'LL STILL HAVE TO DO THAT.
THEY'LL BE SEPARATE FROM WHAT THIS BILLING SOFTWARE PACKAGE IS, BUT YEAH, THEY CAN CERTAINLY MONITOR THEIR USAGE OF THEIR IRRIGATION SYSTEM.
YEAH, WELL THAT WOULD BE GOOD.
OTHER QUESTIONS? AGAIN, THIS HAS BEEN SOMETHING THEY'VE BEEN WORKING ON A COUPLE YEARS, UM, ACTUALLY HAD IDENTIFIED A EARLIER VENDOR THAT WAS MUCH CHEAPER AND THEN ONCE WE DUG INTO IT, REALIZED THAT THEY EITHER MAY NOT BE A REAL COMPANY OR CERTAINLY WEREN'T TELLING THE TRUTH OF EVERYTHING THEY SAID THEY COULD DO.
SO, UM, BUT PCI COMPLIANT, UM, GOT ALL THE CYBERSECURITY IN PLACE SO WE DON'T HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT STOLEN.
YEAH, I DON'T TO DEFER, I DON'T KNOW IF DAN'S BEEN THE ONE INVOLVED IN THIS FROM TECH, BUT YOU KNOW, SIR, WHAT NICK DAVIS HAD, ONE OF THINGS WE REQUIRE IS CALLED A SOC TWO COMPLIANCE.
IT'S AN INDEPENDENT REPORT THAT SHOWS THAT AN INDEPENDENT CYBERSECURITY COMPANY HAS COME IN, VETTED THAT THEY'RE DOING IT CORRECT AND WILL GIVE US A REPORT EVERY YEAR TO ENSURE THAT THEY MEET, UH, MODERN CYBERSECURITY RESPONSIBILITIES.
AND THIS IS A, A CLOUD-BASED SYSTEM COMPARED TO THE ON-PREMISES SYSTEM WE HAVE RIGHT NOW.
UM, AND, UH, THEY ARE PCI COMPLIANT.
UH, AND THEN ANOTHER THING I THOUGHT ABOUT THE COST SAVINGS.
UH, WITH CUSTOMERS BEING ABLE TO GET THESE ALERTS, UM, THEY SHOULD BE ABLE TO BE NOTIFIED OF POTENTIAL LEAKS QUICKER.
UH, AND THAT SHOULD REDUCE THE AMOUNT WE'RE HAVING TO ADJUST FOR LEAK ADJUSTMENTS AS WELL.
[00:20:02]
LEAST SAVE THEM MONEY AS WELL RIGHT? THAN THEY KNOW SOONER BEFORE.UM, ITEM SEVEN, TALKING ABOUT CYBERSECURITY.
THIS IS, UH, YOUR AUTHORIZATION TO SUBMIT A APPLICATION TO THE STATE OF TENNESSEE.
THEY HAVE, UH, SOME MONEY THAT I THINK HAS COME DOWN FROM THE FEDS ORIGINALLY.
UM, FOR CYBERSECURITY GRANTS THAT THEY ARE NOW OFFERING PASSING THROUGH TO LOCAL GOVERNMENTS, THEY'VE GOT ABOUT 10.7 MILLION TO GIVE OUT.
UM, SO TECHNOLOGY DEPARTMENT, BASED UPON SOME ASSESSMENTS THEY'VE DONE PLUS THE INPUT FROM THE COMPANY THAT WE HAD COME IN LAST, WHAT WAS THAT LAST SPRING? LAST MAY.
WHEN WE HAD THAT INCURSION, UM, OUR RECOMMENDING THAT WE SUBMIT A GRANT APPLICATION FOR TWO DIFFERENT TOOLS, AND I'M NOT ABOUT TO ASK OR EXPLAIN WHAT THOSE TOOLS DO, DAN IS HERE TO DO THAT.
UM, CAN YOU DO THAT IN, IN A BRIEF FASHION
SO, UM, BASED OFF THE ASSESSMENT WE RECENTLY DID AND SOMETHING THAT WE WERE AWARE OF, ONE OF THE TECHNOLOGY WE'RE GONNA BE ASKING FOR FOR NEXT FISCAL YEAR ANYWAYS IS CALLED A MANAGED DETECTION AND RESPONSE.
IT'S A, UH, VENDOR THAT IS CONSTANTLY MONITORING OUR INTERNAL DATA TRANSACTION, UH, 24 7 OF, UH, 365 DAYS A YEAR.
THAT WAY IF THERE'S ANY TYPE OF EVENT THAT HAPPENS WITH THE INJURY ENVIRONMENT, THEY HAVE A SECURITY OPERATION CENTER THAT'S CONSTANTLY MONITORING THAT.
SO IF SOMETHING HAPPENS AT TWO O'CLOCK IN THE MORNING, THEY'RE CALLING US, LETTING US KNOW, HEY, YOU HAVE AN ISSUE.
WE SPOKE WITH SUMNER COUNTY WHO BEEN USING THE SYSTEM FOR A COUPLE YEARS.
THE EXACT SAME THING HAPPENED WITHIN ONE TO TWO MINUTES OF THE ARTICLE WHO WE'RE LOOKING AT, UH, CONTACTED SUMNER COUNTY AND SAID, WE HAVE OF, UH, VERIFY THAT YOU'VE BEEN, UH, INFILTRATED BY A THREAT ACTOR WITHIN TWO MINUTES.
THEY WERE ABLE TO ISOLATE THAT AND PREVENT THAT FROM SPREADING AT TWO O'CLOCK IN THE MORNING.
SO THAT'S ONE PIECE OF THE TECHNOLOGY.
THE SECOND PIECE, UH, THAT WE'RE LOOKING FROM ARCTIC WOLF IS CALLED VULNERABILITY ASSESSMENT.
SO EVERY DEVICE, IT KIND OF PLUGS INTO OUR NETWORK, WHETHER IT'S THE PROJECTOR, THE AV SYSTEM OR UH, ALARM SYSTEM, YOU KNOW, COULD HAVE VULNERABILITIES INTO IT.
SO PART OF THE TOOLS IS TO BE ABLE TO LOOK AT EVERYTHING IT PLUGS INTO OUR NETWORK TO TELL US DO YOU HAVE A VULNERABILITY WITH ANY OF THOSE? UH, AND IT ALSO COMES WITH A CYBERSECURITY CONCIERGE TEAM.
THEY WOULD COME IN AND LOOK AT OUR ENVIRONMENT EVERY TWO WEEKS, LOOK AT WHAT VULNERABILITIES THEY HAVE AND THEY WOULD GIVE US A LIST, YOU KNOW, THIS IS WHAT WE WOULD RECOMMEND YOU WORK ON AND THIS IS WHAT, UM, THE PRIORITY THAT WE WOULD SUGGEST THAT YOU, UH, LIST THAT.
SO THAT'S THE MANAGEMENT DETECTION RESPONSE FROM MARK WOLF.
THE SECOND TOOL, UM, WAS, UM, BY THE VENDOR THREAT LOCKER.
IT'S BASED IN APPLICATION WHITE LIST.
SO AS AN EXAMPLE, WE HAVE JAY'S LAPTOP HERE.
JAY HAS A SET OF APPLICATIONS THAT THE TECHNOLOGY DEPARTMENT SAYS CAN RUN ON JAY'S EQUIPMENT.
IT PREVENTS JAY OR A THREAT ACTOR FROM GETTING ACCESS TO HIS EQUIPMENT, INSTALLING ANY OTHER APPLICATION.
UH, WE CAN PREVENT PLUGGING IN THUMB DRIVES OR EXTERNAL HARD DRIVE HARD DRIVES WHERE THERE MAY BE, UM, VULNERABILITIES ON THOSE DEVICES AS WELL.
SO THAT'S THE TWO, TWO, UH, SOFTWARES FROM THE TWO VENDORS, THREAT LOCKER AND
WHEN THE OTHER ISSUE HAPPENED, AND IT WAS KIND OF LIKE A CODE ISSUE, LIKE THERE WAS A LITTLE BIT OF A, A VOID WRONG TERM I'M SURE IN THE CODE.
DOES THIS HELP TO CHECK THAT TO MAKE SURE THERE'S NOT, 'CAUSE I KNOW Y'ALL SPENT A LOT OF TIME GOING THROUGH EVERYTHING.
SO, UH, AGAIN, IF YOU THINK WE HAVE APPROXIMATELY 1200 DEVICES PLUGGED INTO OUR NETWORK AND ANY DEVICE, ANY OF YOUR, YOUR WORKSTATIONS OR LAPTOP PROBABLY ON AVERAGE HAS PROBABLY 10 TO 15 TO 20 VULNERABILITIES.
AND YOU MULTIPLY THAT TIMES 1200 MM-HMM.
AND SO IT HELPS THEM MONITOR WHAT'S GOING INTO OUR NETWORK.
UH, IF SOMEBODY'S TRYING TO LATERALLY MOVE AROUND THAT WE'VE GOT SOMEBODY CONSTANTLY MONITORING THAT 24 HOURS.
I THINK THE POINT SHE IS THAT, THAT WHEN WE GOT SOMEBODY GOT IN BEFORE WE HAD SOMETHING MIS MISSING IN THE CODE A PORT OR SOMETHING MIS PROGRAMMED, WOULD THIS HAVE ONE OF THESE HAVE HELPED IDENTIFY THAT? ABSOLUTELY.
SO THE ARTICLE WILL, VULNERABILITY ASSESSMENT WOULD BE MONITORING OUR FIREWALL AND IT WOULD SAY, HEY, YOU HAVE A CRITICAL VULNERABILITY IN YOUR FIREWALL.
UH, AND SOMETHING THAT HIGH AS LEVEL AS THAT WAS, WE WOULD GET A PHONE CALL LIKE, HEY, WE SAW THIS JUST VULNERABILITY JUST DROPPED.
WE SEE YOU'RE USING THIS IN YOUR ENVIRONMENT, WE SUGGEST YOU GO PATCH IT IMMEDIATELY.
[00:25:01]
I THINK WITHIN IN OUR PIE CHARTS, I THINK WE'RE GONNA HAVE TO IDENTIFY WHAT PERCENTAGE IS CYBERSECURITY, BECAUSE I'M NOT BEING CRITICAL.IT'S JUST PART OF RURAL TODAY YOU'VE GOT, WE SPEND SO MUCH MONEY ON PROTECTING WHAT WE'VE GOT BECAUSE ALL IT TAKES IS ONE, IT'S TAKING A BIGGER AND BIGGER CHUNK OF THE BUDGET EVERY YEAR.
WELL, AND, AND WE HAVE NO CHOICE.
AND THIS, NOW THE GOOD THING ABOUT THIS GRANT, IT'S FOR THREE YEARS OF THESE SERVICES, WHICH ADDS UP TO $468,000.
NOW AT THE END OF THAT THREE YEARS THAT'LL HAVE TO ROLL ONTO OUR BOOKS ASSUMING THE TOOLS ARE DOING WHAT YOU SAY THEY ARE AND YOU WANT TO CONTINUE WITH THEM.
SO IS THAT ABOUT A HUNDRED? WILL THAT BE ABOUT $150,000 A YEAR? 20? YEAH, WHATEVER THAT AT THAT POINT OR ADJUSTED FOR APPRO? I THINK ONE SOLUTION IS APPROXIMATELY 95,000 A YEAR.
THE OTHER SOLUTION WAS APPROXIMATELY 55,000 A YEAR OVER THREE YEARS.
AND THEN THAT'LL PROBABLY MM-HMM.
AND THESE ARE THINGS RESIDENTS NEVER SEE.
I MEAN, IT'S NOT LIKE A, A SWING SET ON A, IN A PARK OR A NEWLY PAVED ROAD OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT, BUT THEY'RE EXPENSIVE.
MY, MY ACCESS VERSUS OTHERS' ACCESS IS THE ABILITY TO INSTALL SMALL LITTLE PROGRAMS AND THINGS LIKE THAT.
I THINK THERE ARE PROBABLY SOME THINGS THAT DON'T REQUIRE ADMINISTRATOR PRIVILEGES THAT WE CAN INSTALL ON OUR COMPUTERS OR PERHAPS IT'S BECAUSE I HAVE ELEVATED PRIVILEGES.
98% OF THE CITY DO NOT HAVE THE, UH, RIGHTS TO INSTALL, UH, DEVICES ON THEIR LAPTOPS.
SO WE HAVE A COUPLE OF EXCEPTIONS AND YOU ARE ONE OF THOSE COUPLE EXCEPTIONS.
SO MY QUESTION WAS FOR THE IMPACT OF THE COMMISSION, WHEN THEY DO THINGS, THEY PROBABLY ALREADY DON'T HAVE THE ABILITY TO PUT THINGS ON THERE BECAUSE YOU HAVE THE WHITE LIST SPEC SPECIFIC PROGRAMS NOW VERSUS HAVE PRIVILEGES AND, AND ANOTHER PART OF THE WHITELIST AND THAT IT DOES IS WHEN A THREAT ACTOR, AS AN EXAMPLE, THEY MAY SEND YOU AN EMAIL WITH A WORD DOCUMENT IN IT.
YOU OPEN UP THE WORD DOCUMENT AND IT STARTS FIRING OFF PROGRAMS IN THE BACK OF IT.
SO PART OF THE APPLICATION WHITE LIST SAYS M OR, UH, MICROSOFT WORD CAN ONLY SPEAK TO MICROSOFT WORD.
IT'S NOT ALLOWED TO SPEAK TO YOUR COMMAND PROMPT.
IT'S NOT ALLOWED TO SPEAK TO YOUR OTHER APPLICATIONS.
SO IT ALSO PROTECTS THAT APPLICATIONS FROM COMMUNICATE WITH OTHER APPLICATIONS AS WELL.
SO THEY'RE NOT LIKELY TO SEE AN IMPACT.
THEY, THEY, SO IT'S NOT ANOTHER MIMECAST THAT EVERYBODY LOVES
NOBODY WILL SAY, SO AS AN EXAMPLE, JAY, IF SOMEBODY'S OUT TRAINING AND YOU KNOW, A FIREFIGHTER AND THEY NEED TO PUT TRAINING MATERIAL ON THEIR, UH, LAPTOP, IT'S REALLY A CHALLENGE FOR US TO REMOTELY DO THAT WITH THE UM, UH, THREAT LOCKER.
WE CAN SAY, OKAY, YOU HAVE, UH, ADMINISTRATIVE ACCESS FOR 15 MINUTES AND WE SEE THE APPLICATION YOU CAN INSTALL, YOU CAN INSTALL THAT APPLICATION ONLY AND IN 15 MINUTES THAT RIGHTS GETS REMOVED.
SO BASED ON WHAT YOU JUST SAID ABOUT MY ELEVATED PRIVILEGES, IT'S NOW GOING TO BE DIFFERENT.
AGAIN, IT'S A THREE YEAR GRANT AND I DON'T, I HAVEN'T BEEN INVOLVED.
IS THIS ONE OF THOSE WHERE WE HAVE GREAT CONFIDENCE WE'LL BE GET THIS GRANT OR I KNOW SARAH'S BEEN INVOLVED IN SEVERAL MEETINGS.
I DON'T KNOW IF YOU HAVE OR YES, YES, SIR.
UH, SO PART OF THE GRANT REQUIREMENTS IS YOU HAVE TO SUBMIT TO THE STATE, UH, INDEPENDENT, UH, AUDIT OF, OF YOUR ENVIRONMENT.
AND THEN YOU HAVE TO POINT BACK WHAT THIS GRANT, HOW IT'S GONNA AUDIT OF, OF WHAT YOU'RE SAYING YOUR NEED IN THERE.
WE SUBMITTED THAT BACK IN OCTOBER.
UH, IT'S BEEN OUR EXPERIENCE THAT THE MAJORITY OF THE GOVERNMENT AGENCIES DON'T SUBMIT THIS, THEREFORE THEY'RE NOT GONNA BE ELIGIBLE.
SO WHEN WILL YOU KNOW, MA'AM? WHEN WILL YOU KNOW IF YOU'VE BEEN AWARDED? WE'VE BEEN TOLD APPROXIMATELY MIDWINTER, SO MAYBE MID WHAT? MIDWINTER? SO APPROXIMATELY MAYBE AROUND, UH, CAN'T WAIT UNTIL MARCH IS WHAT WE'RE HOPING FORT YEAH, IF WE DON'T GET IT, THEN IT'LL BE THE FIRST YEAR.
COST WILL BE IN YOUR BUDGET FOR NEXT YEAR, BUT HOPEFULLY THAT WE CAN PUSH THAT OFF A BIT.
ITEM EIGHT IS THE, UH, REPLACEMENT VEHICLES FOR THE POLICE DEPARTMENT.
A TOTAL OF 13 NINE OF WHICH ARE ACTUAL REPLACEMENTS.
FOUR ARE NEARLY ONES THAT WE PRE-FUNDED, I THINK IN THE EQUIPMENT REPLACEMENT FUND.
UM, DAVID'S HERE AND DAVID GASSETT.
THERE'S DAVID, UM, 11 TAHOES FOR PATROL.
PATROL AND THEN A COUPLE UNMARKED, A TAHOE AND A BLAZER, TAHOE AND A CHEVROLET BLAZER FOR A DETECTIVE CD CID.
TOTAL COST JUST RIGHT UNDER 670,000 ALL UNDER STATE CONTRACT.
UM, AND YOU'VE GOT THE LIST OF WHAT THEY'RE REPLACING.
BUT THAT'S BEEN DAMAGED AND AS I UNDERSTAND, IT CANNOT
[00:30:01]
BE REPAIRED TO THE LEVEL THAT IT CAN BE CERTIFIED TO GO BACK TO THE STREET.AND THEN 2 20 17, 4, WELL, WE KEEP SOME OF THOSE AS SPARES OR WE EVENTUALLY SURPLUS ALL THOSE SURPLUS.
I I'LL HAVE A COUPLE OF THOSE.
SO, AND THEN AFTER THIS, ASSUMING WE'LL HAVE TO PAY FOR WHEN WE GOTTA FIT IT AND YES.
I'LL START WORKING ON FITTING THE EQUIPMENT.
HOW MANY MORE CHARGER DO WE COLD HERE, DAVID, BUT AS WE TRANSITION TO TAHOES, HOW MANY MORE CHARGE WHERE WERE IT'S GOING TO TAKE ANOTHER FOUR YEARS.
TO COMPLETE THE FIELD OF EVERYTHING.
BUT TAHOES DIDN'T, DIDN'T, WE USED TO ACQUIRE SOME CARS IF YOU CONFISCATED THEM DURING A DRUG DEAL, YOU, I I IMAGINE A TV SHOW
WE HAVE TO GET PERMISSION TO SELL 'EM.
SOMETIMES THE STATE WILL TAKE
SO DIDN'T SOME OF THE CONFISCATION LAWS CHANGE IN THE LAST FEW YEARS WHERE IT'S MUCH MORE LIMITED AS TO WHAT YOU CAN GET? YEAH, IT SEEMS LIKE WE USED TO, THIS IS WHAT I WAS SAYING, WE USED TO, YEAH.
USED TO HAVE A FAIR AMOUNT OF CASH THAT WOULD EVENTUALLY COME INTO THE SEIZED ASSETS FUND.
AND THAT'S ALL THAT'S KIND OF DRIED UP A LITTLE BIT.
ONE TIME THEY CONFISCATED A HOUSE IN, IN RENT MEAT AND VEHICLES AND EVERYTHING, AND THEN THE WIFE GOT THE HOUSE BACK.
BUT REGINA HAD A SIGN IN THAT YARD.
A FRIEND HAD PUT IT IN THAT YARD FOR HER, CAME BACK AS SOON AS SHE REALIZED THE POLICE WERE RAID THE PLACE SHE DIED
NOT TO HER, BUT IT WAS FUNNY TO EVERYBODY ELSE.
ANY OTHER QUESTIONS ON THE POLICE VEHICLES? UH, NO, BUT I WANTED TO BRING UP A ROUTINE THING.
UH, A QUESTION I HAD LED ME TO TALK TO TODD ABOUT THIS, AND TODD, JEFF JOBSON KNEW ABOUT THIS, BUT I DON'T THINK HE EVER SHARED THE INFORMATION WITH TODD.
AND YOU KNOW ABOUT, YOU REMEMBER BACK WHEN CARRUTHERS WAS FIRST BUILT AND PRIMUS WAS THE FIRST DEVELOPMENT, AND WE HAD THAT AGREEMENT WITH THEM ABOUT WHEN, UH, IS IT BAKERS BRIDGE OR COOL SPRINGS? IT DOESN'T GO ALL THE WAY TO COOL SPRINGS ALL THE WAY SOMEWHERE AROUND BAKERS BRIDGE.
MAYBE A LITTLE BIT NORTH OF THERE.
RIGHT? WELL, YOU KNOW, WHEN I'M, I'VE USED THAT STREET ALL THE TIME AND THERE ARE FOUR REZONING SIGNS THERE.
ONE IN FRONT OF WALGREENS AND ONE DOWN IN FRONT OF THE BANK AND SO FORTH.
AND IT SAYS, UM, REZONING REQUEST, BUT IT DOESN'T SAY WHY.
SO CO TODD CONTACTED FRANKLIN FOR ME, AND THE REZONING REQUEST IS THAT IT BE CHANGED TO ONLY ALLOW UP TO FOUR STORIES.
I DIDN'T REALIZE THEY COULD EVEN GO FOUR STORIES NOW.
AND APPARENTLY THEY'RE LOWERING THEIR, THEIR HEIGHT REQUIREMENT.
HOW DOES THAT FIT INTO OUR LOWER DENSITY REQUIREMENT FOR THEM? COMMERCIAL DENSITY THERE? IF I'D HAVE TO GO BACK AND LOOK AT WHAT WAS A LOT, THEY COULD OVER FOUR STORIES ALREADY.
WELL, I THINK, I THINK THE AGREEMENT WAS A A FLOOR AREA RATIO THING, NOT A HEIGHT LIMIT.
SO IF YOU HAD A BIGGER LOT, YOU COULD HAVE HAD MORE STORIES.
WELL THE POINT I'M MAKING IS THIS INFORMATION NEEDS TO BE SOMEWHERE IN PLANNING IN A FILE FOLDER BECAUSE TODD, IT'S NOT TODD'S FAULT, BUT HE CAME YEARS AFTER AND NO ONE BOTHERED TO EXPLAIN IT TO HIM.
I WANT TODD IN PLANNING TO KNOW THIS INFORMATION BECAUSE THAT WAS A HARD FAULT BATTLE DOWN THERE TO GET THAT KINDA ZONING FOR BRENTWOOD.
AND I DON'T KNOW WHAT, WHAT'S FILED THERE.
I MEAN, WE'VE TALKED CITY MANAGERS FILES HAVE IT.
THE CITY ATTORNEY'S FILES HAVE IT.
SO I OKAY, WELL, PLANNING NEEDS TO HAVE IT THOUGH, BECAUSE THEY DON'T COME TO THE CITY ATTORNEY WHEN THEY FIRST COME AND ASK FOR SOMETHING.
IT ALL WORKS THROUGH PLANNING.
TODD, AND I'M NOT TRYING TO BE CRITICAL OF YOU AT ALL.
I I WHAT I'M SAYING PLANNING HAS IT INTO THE SITUATION PLANNING HAS IT, I DON'T KNOW THAT TODD KNEW WHERE WAS OR WHATEVER, BUT WE, WE MAY HAVE IT.
I DON'T KNOW WHERE IT'S GOING.
IT'S, IT'S ALL ON THE NETWORK INTO THE PLANNING FOLDER.
ALL WELL, I JUST WANNA MAKE SURE IT'S ALWAYS THERE.
THERE'S SOME THINGS YOU DON'T WANT TO GET LOST IN THE SHUFFLE AND THAT IS ONE OF THEM BECAUSE THERE'S A LOT OF DEVELOPMENT DOWN THERE ALREADY.
WE DON'T NEED MORE CREEPING TOWARDS BRENTWOOD.
UH, ANYHOW, JUST WANTED TO BRING THAT UP.
ITEM NINE IS SOME ADDITIONAL VEHICLES, UH, FOR WATER AND PARKS, THREE WATER VEHICLES, ONE PARKS, DEPARTMENT
[00:35:01]
VEHICLE, ALL OF WHICH WERE UNDER STATE.WHAT'S THE DELIVERY TIME THESE DAYS FOR VEHICLES IRRIGATE? DO YOU HAVE FILL, ONCE I GET THE PO SENT IN, IT'LL PROBABLY BE END OF MARCH, APRIL BEFORE I START RECEIVING VEHICLES.
AND DID IT TAKE OUT LONGER? LONGER TO GET THE EQUIPMENT IN THE OUTFIT? OKAY.
THREE FOR WATER AND ONE FOR PARKS.
AGAIN, ALL THESE WERE PART OF THE, THE PLANNED REPLACEMENTS FOR THE CURRENT YEAR AND ALL ARE UNDER STATE CONTRACT.
UM, JUST ABOUT 200,000 FOR THE THREE WATER VEHICLES AND, UH, PARKS IS 46,700.
WHAT'S THE TURNAROUND TIME FOR YOURS, CHRIS? ARE THOSE WE'RE HERE TO SPRING.
THERE'S AN EXAMPLE OF TYPES OF THINGS AND THEN THE ONE ITEM OF OLD BUSINESS IS THE FINAL READING FINALLY, ALMOST 12 MONTHS LATER OF THE, UH, FLOOD ORDINANCE AMENDMENTS THAT ALLOWS FOR THE ENCLOSED STAIRWELLS FOR THOSE HOMES THAT HAVE BEEN ELEVATED.
UM, HAPPY TO GO INTO THAT IN DETAIL AGAIN, IF YOU WANT US TO.
WE SPENT A LOT OF TIME ON IT, OBVIOUSLY BEFORE, SO I, I'LL KNOW IF IT NEEDS A LOT OF CONVERSATION.
NOW TO BE CLEAR, THE COUPLE THAT HAD DONE SOMETHING, A COUPLE HOMES THAT HAD DONE, THEY'RE NOT COMPLIANT, SO THEY'RE GONNA HAVE TO REMOVE AND SUBMIT PLANS AND TODD SENT THEM ENOUGH TO LET 'EM KNOW THAT THEY CAN KIND OF MOVE FORWARD WITH THAT.
SO, BUT THEY'RE WELL AWARE OF THAT.
UM, SO DAVID OVER THERE, DAVID, YOU CAN END THE, UH, BROADCAST OF THAT MEETING.
