 So we're five or 6 p.m. First I have on the agenda, I would welcome the motion. All right. Hope to jump the agenda as amended. Resulting the agenda item 4.06 absolutely a direct and important on board communication, long-term tasking, particularly with the president regarding current stuff ahead of time for our last session of the agenda item 4.15, communication, the council chair and all chair regarding that allocation and those posting reports of public safety. Second. Thank you both. So further discussion of the agenda. Motion signal will go to vote. All those who are in motion, please say hi. Are there any opposed? Motion carries unanimously. Have an agenda. Those amendments which are all reflected here. Okay. Next item is the public forum. Is there any member of the public that would like to address? Okay. Can you click over to the attendees? Yes. Is there any member of the public that is interested in speaking to the board finance please raise your hand. Okay. That looks like former council chair and we would like to be recognized. So go in. I think here should be others. Okay. Thank you, Mr. Mayor. I'm speaking on an item that actually you remove from the board of finance but I'm not certain why you removed it and I just wanted to weigh in. It had to do with the unassigned fund balance and I read that. It was 5.4. Oh on the. The city council agenda. And I had difficulty understanding it. You know, it set the range from 10 to 15%. And then it said the audit found. 9.2 or whatever. 9.2 million was at 13% or so. And then. There was a laundry list of items of how you were going to spend. Some of those dollars. Which added up to 7.4. Which would have only left 2 million remaining. And I thought I missed something. I actually reached out to past. Counselor Jane Nodell and asked her to eyeball it because. I wasn't following it. So as you. Whatever you're going to do with that item. As you maybe revamp it. For members of the public. It was really difficult to follow. And you know, I know that you. Take seriously our finances and. And it's, I don't believe that you would spend down to leave only 2 million in the unassigned fund balance. So those are my comments and thank you very much. Great. Thank you very much, Sharon. There's no objections. I'll just quickly address. Address that here. Yeah, I do it. But. There was an error with that resolution basically. And so it has been removed. And it's going to be. Rewritten and come back next time. All that was being attempted here was. The auditors have. Requested. I think it could be a good practice. I think now, you know, not going basis for there to be. A. Annual. Formal action by the council to reaffirm. And the board of finance to reaffirm. Not. What is in the assigned balance, which is different. We have this fund balance, which as that language, I'll show it. The audit has confirmed the unassigned fund balance is. Approximately $9 million. We also have this $7 million. We also have this $7 million. We also have this $7 million. We also have this $7 million. We also have this $7 million. Assigned fund balance, which essentially means the city council over some numbered, you know, really a couple of years. With the administration has made decisions that commit certain funds that haven't been spent yet, but they are. They are encumbered and committed. And they stay on. As a, on our balance sheet as a. As a whole, I think it's more than this, but either they're sprint as planned. Or they are, we get to the end of that project. And they haven't fully been expended. And then they can be reabsorbed back into the other side. Sometimes you see a new year. Like that could be a big consider why an unassigned for miles might go up over the course of the year. So that's what this was supposed to be about is defining what's in the assigned fund balance. So there's no confusion of that. So that's what we're going to be talking about. So that's what we're going to be talking about. The rest of the resolution for my read of it. When I focused on it today. And you know, I apologize. This was one that I did not. I was traveling some last week and we just had some eternal. This one kind of slipped into cracks. The rest of the resolution didn't tie to that. What I was supposed to do is pass it out on a sign. Fund balance really is about the assigned fund balance. Now get cleaned up and fixed for the others. Next time. I'm going to close this. But I think it's enough to look at some of the things we did. With the document that. Ex glad to see you. Okay. So, it's not even a really discussion item, but. One. Seems like others said there's as well, so now let's, let's move on. If there's no other people that were looking to be recognized. We'll go to the. We'll close the public forum. And we'll go to the consent agenda. Thank you, Councilor Hightower, is there a second? Second. Any discussion? Seeing that we'll go to vote. All those fairly emotional please say aye. All right. Other opposed? Motion carries unanimously. And that brings us to 4.01. 14 items are trying to make it through. Are we trying to start? 6. Excuse me. 4.01. Project management services contract amendment. Wait, Burke. Brian is here. You want to get a personal quick friend. Sure. The purpose of this request tonight is just to clarify that the. Services being provided by waiting for. Or to include. Work around the downtown. And to authorize additional funds to be able to be able to. Make sure that both that was clear. Thank you. Sorry. I'm sorry. And just a family skinned the contract. Is the same in terms of the costs? Or I guess on our side. That is coming from. Yeah, these are tip expenses and the. The rate remains the same. Sorry. Sorry. So what is the one hundred one hundred split? It's to divide the level of effort between the two. Yep. So I just have a quick question and that is that. If you take the two hundred thousand. By the number of months, you're talking about $12,000. It seems as though that you're talking about. 40, 50, 60 hours for the work every month. Is that right? I don't know what the hourly rate is, but what I'm saying is that you're at least talking about 40 to 50 hours a month. That's a lot. And so I'm just wondering, is that really what it is? Your question. I think the goal being to go only we only get billed for time spent. Of course, important point is you don't get billed like a fixed amount for one. Only for hours spent. So the actual hours devoted by the consultant. We don't want to have a point where we have to keep coming back. So the amount may not be necessary. So that's. That's what we explained. But that's also, we've already talked about that. We've already talked about that. We don't want to have a point where we have to keep coming back. So the amount may not be necessary. So that's, that's what we explained. But that's also, we've already spent. What was all very previously. So this is adding. Previously authorized. I guess all I would say is that I just hope that I didn't say it's a substantial consulting contract. And I'm, this is not a commentary on whether it's worth it. This is just a commentary on, it's a lot of money. And I just hope that we're, you know, it's substantial. And then I just wanted to ask, as far as the reimbursement was that budgeted for when we did the TIF. So that would put it into the budget for TIF. Okay. All right. Great. Thank you. For. Question. Thank you. Second. Tracy further discussion. I'll just put it in motion. Please say hi. Yeah. And then we have just to. 4.02. Another C. O. item. Classification. One more within C. O. Quick summer in the spring. Tony's with us and like, I think he's hoping to talk. Ready to go. All right. Tony. You can see on the screen here. So this is a role that we are reclassifying. And I think we can move some attrition within the immediate department and some shifting around of responsibilities. To kind of include some more oversight. In that role, you know, we have a very competent and capable incumbent in this role. And I think it's a good combination of, of what they are good at what we need. And yeah, that's kind of some of the background there. Brian, feel free to add anything I may have missed. The face for city government on the third floor. This is a person you encounter. Come in. Multiple sometimes. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Second my first and Tracy discussion. All those parents motion to say hi. All right. And you post. Okay. Authorization for reimbursement for public improvement bonds. For cities capital projects. Catherine. Thank you. I can say this item and the one beneath it, which is for the tick bond. Should both look somewhat familiar to you as these are relatively standard authorizations when a bond is approved. Our bond council has asked that we have you approve these so that we can actually go out and do the bond. Take the bond money from the bank and that's all this is. Authorizing us to do. So that we can spend the money and then rich can. Wait around and shop for the best deal. Anything to average. No, thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. The floor is open for 4.3. Council. I'll make a motion to recommend that the council for the attention resolution. Second. Great. Any further discussion of 4.3. Seeing them go vote. All those are very much. Say, I. Post. Motion carries. Motion carries unanimously as well. Excellent. Thank you, Rich. Now we are at 4.05, which is the acceptance approval of FY 21 audit. I'll make a motion to recommend that the council for attention resolution. Second. Second. Second. Present Tracy. Discussion. All those in favor of motion, please say aye. Opposed. Motion carries unanimously as well. Excellent. Rich. Now we have a discussion on the audit. This group has already seen. The management letter. We had a chance to ask questions. We did not at that meeting. Have a formal resolution. we've had a chance to ask questions we did not at that meeting have a formal resolution because at that point we were still waiting for the school district to finalize their audit. I think if you reviewed the materials there's nothing substantial that's changed. If you have questions Rich, Alina and I are happy to answer them or if you're ready to make a motion we can move this forward to City Council and Alina is prepared to speak there for people who haven't heard or should be a lot right. Thanks I'll recommend that the council approve the attached resolution. I just have one more question. Thanks just wanted to note that the management letter had three items on it two of them were recurring one of them I think it's very significant anomaly given the fact and I just wanted to also acknowledge that I hope everyone will certainly support either four point away because that is the creation of a position that will hopefully further address one of the recurring issues of the audit so who goes to all of you for getting a getting such a brief management letter not that we should count it by the number of pages but we do and wonderful work. Thanks. Thank you Councillor Paul for for saying that it still reflects a lot of work from the Treasury's team over many years and it is fitting to cover it. It is nice to be taken for the not a perfect fill of how often there are improvements that need to be made but it's created in real time a lot of errors don't feel good. I don't find some. Presentry. I was just wondering if you have any updates on any of the work that you've been doing in addition to addressing some of the recommendations in the funding since we've asked you spoke with the Board of Finance about the site. That's a great question President Tracy. I think you'll see in reflected in the management letter a lot a lot of work has gone into project like capital accounting and a shout out to our friends in DPW and part of the grant some of them are here because that's really affected their lives as well and it's taken a tremendous amount of work from those departments and the CT office over this past year to get all of our current and former projects into the system and really make sure that we have a system that starting July 1st was really ready to accept new projects and start working as it should and I think you see that in some of those comments from the auditors. In addition to this capital account position in three weeks we'll also come back for a grants account position and that won't affect the general fund either. We found a way that that can be paid for but I think part of our conversation with the auditors has really been this tension between of course wanting to keep costs as low as possible and not have too many people in the CT office and yet realizing that maybe we cut that a little too close in the past and wanting to make sure that we have enough resources to be able to provide that full breadth of service that people are looking for so be able to get those positions in and then fully onboarded and then to make sure they're providing the service that not only we at our level need but that in each of the departments they're really getting the big picture as well as in the services that they need. So that's where I'm aware of that. Any further discussion of motion for 4.05? Seeing none we'll take a load on the motion now. All those in favor please say aye. Aye. Ready to post? Motion carries unanimously. 4.06 has been removed so we'll now move to 4.07. Approving, taining, standby letters of credit for the city's workers compensation program. This is also a pretty standard item. This is a $25,000 commitment fee for a standby letter of credit that we are required to have by travelers for our workers comp insurance. We've never had to use it but we have to have it so please approve it. Of course I don't know if you have questions. It is paid for from the insurance fund so not a hit to the general fund. I'll make a motion to recommend the council for the effect resolution. Discussion? Seeing none we'll move a vote. All those in favor of the motion please say aye. Aye. Opposed? Motion carries unanimously. 4.08 is next up creation of the London Clerk Treasurer position just referenced a moment ago. Maybe that's enough of an introduction for now and most people want to get the details on it. Floor is open for the board to present. Make the motion to recommend the action for now. Second by council Paul. Discussion? No. Okay we'll go to vote them. All those in favor of the motion please say aye. Aye. Opposed? Motion carries unanimously. 4.08 and thank you Catherine. The project accounting has been a lock standing goal and I don't know about this step forward. The next item is 4.09 New England Central Railroad sidetrack agreement D item looks like Darren is here to assist as needed. Darren you want to keep this off? Yes and I was wondering if we can promote Betsy Lesnikowski whose list is an attendee to a panelist. Betsy it looks like now she's here is our chief forester at McNeil and has good context to share in terms of the history of this agreement and why we're bringing this forward so I would turn it to Betsy just for a brief introduction. Hi I'm happy to give you the introduction. I will try with my video my internet is really wonky so if you can't hear me I'll turn off the video. We are required by our operating permit to bring 75 percent of our wooden by rail. We have a rail yard in Swanton and we have a rail siding and a trestle unloading enclosure in Burlington at the McNeil station. Burlington Electric owns the middle of this enclosure and the trestle but the railroad owns both ends and this agreement covers the use of the track and the switches. We've had an agreement with the railroad with two leases since 1983 when we first started operating. This is a new lease that combines the two together into a more modern language lease. We've budgeted for this money in our operating budget expense budget all along so it's not a new budget item. It's just a new modern lease that takes the place of two old leases from the 80s. I'm happy to answer any other specific questions if people have anything specific about the lease. Questions presentation. Yes I'm wondering what was outdated about the previous lease. Is there anything generally about it that was outdated or did you say modern? There were two. One covered the land, one covered the tracks. They didn't have a real clear way to decide how they were going to increase the prices. This combines them into one and it does have a clause that gives us a known value to keep the increasing the prices so we have a better idea for budgeting and it updates some of the railroad language into more modern terms. There are not a whole lot of changes to the leases themselves. It just makes it one lease that's easier to operate. Thank you so much. Very good. Are we any more questions? Are we ready for our motion? I'm happy to make the motion to take the action starting board talks. Excellent. Is there a second? Second by Councilor Hightower. Discussion? Seeing none we'll go to a vote. All those in favor of the motion say aye. Motion carries unanimously. Thank you by Jane Darren. Thank you. We will now move to 4.1 of approval of parking fees, parks, cities here. Remind us how this works. Sure. So as you can see from the numbers here, parking is a big part of our budget. We often think we would find another place to park cars and get money from the summer tours that come to Brooklyn. So right now we have three main lots. We've got Oakwich on both beach, or four main lots really. Oakwich, North Beach, Perkins Pier but also the Penn Slot on the waterfront. We offer a seasonal pass for our residents as you see in many communities off like that. So reduce fee if you want to get a pass. That does not, one lot that does not cover is P's, our prime waterfront lot you do need to pay for that one. We are the first commission a supportive of adding the letty lot which is something that we used to charge at. Adding not that game is a way to increase additional revenues for the department. And that would one that would also be covered by that seasonal pass. We offer different rates as you could see for the seasonal passes. But then we also offer daily parking at North Beach, North Beach at Perkins which changed last year with the change of the rail coming in. We had to remove the building there so we no longer have staff at that spot. We used to keep our mobile and then this year we'll be adding kiosks. I want to say the parking services department DBW has just been really supportive and helping us as while we count on these lots, Perkins is not what we do every day and it is something they do every day. So they've been sharing their expertise and staff working very collaboratively together on it. Thank you. The floor is, did you say, can you just remind us when was the last time there was a decrease? I'm clearly never going to hurt you against parking costs. But I am curious because you have the lead participants under the CSEL parking. And I know that some of the leads are basically the most affordable opportunities that we have. So I guess one, my question is I don't know how much we charge the leads in terms of using some of the park spaces, but I would almost rather see some shitting at that. So it would be more for parking than hopefully we're not also increasing there. And then I was just confused on the leady. I guess what is the season? Season depends on the lot. So we open up the campground over top May 1st. So then we'll start charging for parking. May 15th is when we start charging when the oblige start that comes out there. And so the lead fee, those are, I mean, those are less than the regular fee because what that is is actually doesn't get that all a lot. So if you like kickball is a big lead one, just a really big impact on that park. So but we offer them the ability to get a pass just for oblige. And that's why it's less. And we did that as a way to get them to pay. Because we were having, finding some instances where they were coming and they're like, well, am I going to get a ticket or am I not going to get a ticket? So we're really trying to incentivize them to pay for the parking because they have such an impact on that park. If you go to use oblige that day, they kick a lot of parking. So that's why we put it so it's lower than the other one because it doesn't include all the parks. It's not a full seasonal pass. They can get a seasonal pass if they want to go to the North Beach in all that. Or they can pay them just they don't have to get a season pass. They can just pay an hour. So the season pass for late participants is just for oblige or is it just for oblige? So they would pay. So if you're a resident and you wanted to get a pass and you're all you're going to do is maybe you're, for some reason, you're only going to go to oblige. You never go to the North Beach. You never go to Perkins. And you're in a kickball league. You could get $40 you could pay for it. Or you could just pay hourly every time you come like some people. Or even better, you could bike or walk in and pay nothing. But that's where that's why it's because it's just for one person. Right. And what's the plan for Letty? So Letty we're looking so the plan is that we can get all the equipment in which we're working with Perkins Services. We're shifting some around from their garages. And so they've got some available one that we'll use at Perkins and we're looking at a big tool we're putting them out at Letty. And then we would do Perkin passes there. And with the park mobile system, you can they call them promo passes. So it's like say you're going to go skating. You're like in a skating class. We can is when you signed your kit up for skating, you could get it yourself. Say you're taking skate lessons, you could get the promo pass, which then you wouldn't have to pay for the parking there. So those lead the arena users, it's intended more for like the beach users. And if you're going out biking, that's what's intended to capture. Yeah. And I see this doesn't I apologize. I should have done all this over email, but I just didn't get to that. Yeah, I think that to the extent obviously supportive of parking fees. And I think I see now why it's so like it's so low, because you're talking about the compliance issue. But obviously to the extent that we can make the parking not free to lead users and instead subsidize it by having lower fees, I think that would be great helpful. But it sounds like you say I've let it start to create if you're in the arena, if you're in the arena. And then I would just, I think I just kind of turned what you're saying, think the ones that are run out of O pledge, those leads are actually why they're not proper, but it's a separate organization that's kick balls, not us. So those are my yeah. So they yeah, they can get that, but it's because it sounded like you're saying you'd rather leave fee be less like as far as like the but that's an outside leave that's using our park to run their program. So I'm not I can't control the sorry I meant that what we're charging the way I see we're trying differently. Yeah. And they rent they have to rent shelters to and the impact on we can't rent a shelter out because it's they're using up so much parking. So we recorded them. So they actually have to pay to rent a shelter to your welcome. Thanks for asking questions. So one of the things that that might help answer all of this is what people decided to write. But it's going to make sure that when we get there, there's a there's an additional parking, especially if a few times in the season. So just wondering if there are additional efforts and parks that have answered additional parking. That's a great question. The ability to get there, but we will mention to finish our place, they're the design for that. And that does include more. So the design improvements that we'll be doing near the entrance where the complex across there, the main entrance in and the bike path that will have increased. But it's a good question. So I mean, we always church there, we've always church there, but it is good to look just to take a double look at making sure we have enough places to do your bikes. We've been focused more on filling in where we didn't have any or where they were falling apart. But once we've got that down, that next look is making sure that we never have. So I would say if you notice, you know, let us know. Because sometimes we don't, but we don't know that there's that it's, you know, thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you for the first time in years for parts that have been launched and walked all the way to Oh, nice. Didn't find anything parking. I feel pretty stressed by that. Since we film last year, I want you to check it out. They upgraded our bunch of pad sites. There's a bike parking going there, fitness station. One of them stuff had that you guys approved last week at the paddle boards. And then there's one that's right near the we drive in. There's a big pad there and that's going to be a kayak rack. So if you're pulling, you could pull over, take your kayak off, go park your car. So that's what that was. Nice. Yeah. If you haven't been on it yet, by the west side of the train tracks. I call myself twice like coming off and like hitting the track, like being rid of the tracks. Oh wait a second. It's over. All right. Are we ready for motion? Thank you, President Tracey. Is there a second? Second. Seconded. Councilor Powell. Discussion? All those in favor of the motion, please say aye. Motion carries unanimously. Thank you, Cindy, for advancing that. 4-20-11. I'm going to have our engineering team kick this one off. Senior engineer, Lara Wheelock, you're on mute. Let's see, does that work better? Yes. Yeah. You just might have a chance to hear my kids better. But so we're here just to get authorization to be able to execute the cooperative agreement, the council heard this item back in September as we were initially awarded the grant. V-Transas contract admin is actually slower than we are. So it took them a little while to get us the cooperative agreement. It is a substantial grant. The total with our local match is just over $1.4 million. The local match funds are coming from the city's capital, a little from the annual CIP and a little from the recent meeting day bond vote. Once executed, we looked to be able to kick that off this year. One of the requests is also to be able to use the V-Trans at the ready process to be able to procure a consultant. The hopes of being able to use this process is to make our consultant agreements be a little bit quicker to hopefully make up some of the time that we've lost while being in contracting phases. Happy to answer questions if there's any. Thank you, Laura. I would like to proceed. I'll take the recommendation of the floor. Great. Sorry, second. So good. My councilor Hightower discussion. All those clear of the motion, please say aye. Aye. Post. Motion carries unanimously. And we have two more. So, 4.12, Mansfield Avenue, side path and traffic calming project. Three is public works engineer. Another project assisted with grant funding to... That's really interesting. We're definitely combining this with the traffic calming program to get an economy of scale between both traffic calming and shared use of that project. So, yeah, the general of this project has two components to it. We're replacing the side path slash sidewalk on the east side of Mansfield Avenue about 1,600 feet. We're replacing with a 10 foot wide asphalt side path, which will really bring together the kind of network we have now between North Avenue and the newly constructed Colchester Avenue side path. And then the traffic calming components, which are basically being implemented in the form of three raised crosswalks, one in front of the inner Christie School, and then two raised crosswalks on either side of Loomis Street to help slow traffic down along Mansfield Avenue. So, yeah, pre-street where we had state construction began early May. Bits came in, fair and reasonable. The analysis was performed and everything was done to the... I have a question for you as a comment, which this is also removing the temporary planters. Yes, sorry. So, yes, the point, the quick build at Loomis Street is being removed, but it's actually being established as a permanent bump out curved space. So, yeah. Yeah, the comment on that is, I don't know if these are the... I don't know how many other places in the city have them, obviously. I don't think it's a good word one, but I feel like people's... Like, I thought it was a pilot project and I know people didn't like it. I don't think that's that they don't like the permanent concept. I think it's because they specifically don't like the permanence of the pilot. So, just wondering if we're planning on doing anything like this around the city, if we're going to skip the pilot plans going further. Something more with the question. Right. We do have Senior Planner Nicole Losch, who I know did a survey with the community along the Old North End Greenway and there was, in general, support for the Greenway itself and frustration just maintenance. And so that's why we are moving towards making the installation permanent with curve and removing the planters and the bollocks. I think generally what we've heard too from the community is that they do like the bump out concept at that location specifically. I think there was just a problem with maybe like the vertical component of it, like having a hard time seeing around and whatnot. So, might not be a thing that necessarily works in every sort of situation. There's something happening at times when the pilot stage has an adjustment after basically just an exploratory bag. Exactly. First of all, just be able to move quickly and actually make a change. There's also stuff that's learned. So, I think it's a strategy we still believe in that comes out of Tara's point, but I do think people get frustrated when they're along the way and out of the stage and build out that maybe sometime in the near solid future. That's your sponsor, Tara. Yes, thank you. Okay. President Tracey. Yeah, definitely. You listen to the same feedback from folks around the bollocks and the planters themselves and why not necessarily that they're post-traffical because it recognizes especially after the switch is around from the live street. I think it's sitting in that transitional place over this capital one, so I'm just going to screw up to use the transition. But I do think the reason intersection of that is an issue that was not necessarily addressed or addresses an issue that was not addressed in the initial phone balance in the sense that compliance with the stop sign is for horrendous in that intersection. So, I think it absolutely makes sense to be aware of the intersection there, in order to further contract. Some cases people just flow right through it. So, yeah, so it's just a race, not a total race intersection, but race crosswalks on either side. So it's all the same effect essentially probably even more effective than the race cross intersection itself. I think it'll be more effective. That's like folks down the stop sign actually is the temporary was temporarily very implementation in 2015. That's actually being removed with this effort. The Public Works Commission approved it as a temporary measure. It says, I'll write in the minutes that they approved it on the condition that we would explore traffic calming, permit traffic calming measures. Because it doesn't need anymore. So that will be part of this effort. And the race crosswalks do provide that vertical component to help like improve that visual. Well, I know this is a project that's been long anticipated and awaited. And then they were going to be where we're getting that. It's actually doubling the size. So it's like the fact that people have to decide about that. I'm sure. Yeah. That's going to be, well, is that entirely newcomer? Is there something, is there some customers here other than that? We had a couple of comments that people, most people love the idea. There are a couple of people who didn't love the idea of pedestrians and cyclists. So it's just existing. So it's all with a narrative way. Yeah. Yeah. And this does connect to the Colchester, our shared use path that I was initially thinking that was grant funded connected to this project. It will create quite a network of shared use path. That's it. Great. Okay. Okay. We're looking for a motion. Great. Seconded by Councilor Powell. Any discussion? All those in favor of motion, please say aye. All right. We post. Lydia, when will we break around those? May 20. The contractors are anticipating the first week of May. That will be done this, this is our presentation. Yeah. They're hoping for a six-week construction season. So hopefully it's done before July. But I do have a contract that they need to be done before UVM is left to school in August. Nice. All right. Excellent. Good luck with it. Thank you. It's a setting project. Can I just ask, yes, they were, we're going to be having an opportunity. But I would imagine it's going to be probably one big conversation this evening on 4.1. Very well. Yeah. Thanks to that. Just to discuss this quite, I understand the point. Is there, I'm sorry, I didn't catch it on the first floor. Yeah. That's okay. Same one. Okay. That's right. Yes. I think the only piece to just clarify is there are two money items suggested in that resolution related to the city council initiatives for one and traffic for another. If the board of finances is comfortable discussing that at the full council, we just wanted to give you the notice that that was in the resolution. Okay. Great. Great. Thank you for all your work on this. I'm excited that this is going forward for your actions tonight. Okay. So I'm going to move to 4.14 communication regarding the staffing at temporary library grants in the north end. We are, this is actually this, so exactly the city action here. So we're just going to put this on. We're just going to put it on. I have just, okay. Okay. Just ask. Yeah. I have reached out to Mary and go today, virtually over the weekend when I received this before it was posted. Do you have anything that you could inform us on as far as some, you know, basic, just of the letter and how you respond to this letter? Is that something that's fun for Mary? I don't see, don't see, or just wondering if you might have any comments on that, or would you like us to take some kind of motion just to see this? Yeah, okay. I can just do a signal. Okay. So I welcome motion to set this communication with someone. Thank you, Councilor McDonough. Second by President Tracy. Discussion? All those in favor of the motion, please say aye. Aye. Aye. I'll hand you a post. Motion carries unanimously. Councilor Fah, would you like to take off the phone? Sure. Thanks so much for accommodating this on the agenda. It's pretty self-explanatory, certainly, for Councilor Hightower, who has been faithfully attending these meetings. She's very familiar with the work of the Public Safety, the working group that has been working. Recommendation by recommendation through the CNA report. There was a request made to make sure that these, the recording of these meetings was very accessible, and not just through a posting about board docs, but those people who aren't as adept with board docs as most of us are. There is a cost for having 10 meeting to be posted on YouTube. It's $150 a meeting. We've had, or will have, we still have two more to go. One tomorrow night at 1 p.m. next Tuesday. We'll have had 10 meetings, and this is just simply a request to get an allocation of $1,500 out of the Council initiative's fund to have these reports posted on. I'm happy to make that motion, yes. It's your second, Councilor Hightower discussion. Sorry, just a process question. Does this go to the Council beforehand, or is it just the Board of Finance that's on it? Yeah, it should be, I think you're right. It should be, it should have been 4.15, it should have been 5.01. Think so, right? It's already budgeted funds, and it's on the sports, so I think if you clarify it in your motion, I guess it's for final action, I think that's your wish. Yes, I will make that, I will amend that motion, but I said it's more of a recommendation, this is for Board of Finance approval. Okay, I would recommend that this be for the finance. Great, and go no further, and you second your control of that. Okay, so good. Any discussion? All those in favor of the motion, please say aye. Aye. Any votes? Motion carries unanimously. That concludes our agenda. For the objection, we are adjourned as of board finance at 6 p.m. If you'd like to say something about the Zoom link, we have some. Thanks for that. So this is the same Zoom link for the full Council meeting for folks who are participating remotely, so you're certainly welcome to stay on for that. Just so folks know, we do have what's likely to be an executive session that we'll be going into, so we'll be in the Council meeting, adopt our agenda, and then go right to the motions on executive session, after which time. Should the Council choose to go into executive session, we will. Hopefully we'll be able to take care of any business in that executive session on collective bargaining prior to 7.30, which is when the public forum is scheduled to begin. If you are a member of the public interested in participating in the public forum remotely, please use the link, burlingtonbt.gov, slash city council, slash public forum to sign up remotely. If however you're interested in signing up in person, but are watching remotely currently, please come to City Hall and sign up here if Condor is on the tour for in-person commenting. So with that, we'll see you in a little bit.
