No one this evening. Thank you. All right. Just one item of recognition for tonight for mayor's announcements. I'll keep it brief since we will be going and discussing our capital improvements budget. I just want to recognize that one of our firefighters, Tyler Meyer, passed away a few days ago in his services for his funeral where yesterday. Tyler's been with the fire department since December of 2007 and this would have been his 16th year as a member of the city fire department as well. So our thoughts and prayers are with him and his family as well as the men and women that worked alongside of him in the fire department as well too. So I just wanted to recognize his services that he gave to the city and I'll call on chief Montiano for additional comments as well. Thank you, mayor. Thank you for the support. It hit the crews pretty hard but Tyler was one of those individuals that nobody ever had anything bad to say about him. He was just one of those guys that would make you smile and laugh no matter what he did. You could not be mad at that individual and he truly would give you the shirt off his back so he will be sorely missed. It was a phenomenal service but I really appreciate the acknowledgement and the support so thank you. Thank you chief. All right with that we will proceed into our consent agenda items 8 through 23. Alder Decker. Thank you mayor. I move to receive and file all ROs receive all RCs and adopt all resolutions and ordinances. Second. Moved and seconded. Anyone have any discussion on any of the items in the consent agenda? Alder Flicky Panesky. Thank you. Item number 8 is this the alley that is north of the Lutheran church which is north of the Meade Library? It says section 128 of the old plaque book and I don't know what 127 of the original plaque book. Chuck you want to do that? Yes. Or Ryan Sazma? I guess Q did. Either one. The answer is yes. The answer is yes. Okay yeah it's part of the part of an ongoing thank you sought finance and personnel that there's been some discussion about transferring that parking lot and this is all part of that process and working with the school and church as well as with the theater. Okay it does not include the north south section of that alley? It does not. I'm not even sure that there actually is a north side north south portion of that alley anymore. Just when I looked at the map I only saw east west. Okay. But it is only the part that goes east west. Okay thank you. Other problem? Yeah so I had the same question about which one was that because I wasn't able to understand it and then also I didn't hear you see the attorney I'm sorry for that actually I couldn't hear the back and forth so in addition to understand where that alley is I also would like to understand what the issue is with that alley I don't know I didn't understand it. So there is an ongoing discussion to sell that lot to the church and school. That process though is including the theater because the theater has a vested interest they've got some loading docks back there but this this is all part of that of that process. Thank you. Any other discussion on that consent agenda? Alder Flicky Paneski? Thank you very much. Items 16 and 17 and they both involve getting new traffic lights at two separate intersections in town and from what I could gather the billing went up 65% for one of them and 105% for another the cost without any change in the in the design. So can somebody tell me why we're spending 165% more for two intersections? Right city engineer cue then yes those extra costs are strictly materials went up that much in two years material costs for for the traffic signals and the controllers and everything else yes those uh yeah those those contracts are are ran through the Wisconsin DOT so yeah that's that's that's the cost the nice thing about this program is it's a 90 10 split even with these increases it's 90% DOT funding or federal funding in 10% city. So the dollar amount we see it increased from 37 to 62 and then the other one increased from 45 to 93 thousands. Yes. We only pay 10% of the 93 and 10% of the 62. You got it. That keeps me happier thank you. Like I said it's strictly material cost it's not labor it's not design it's materials. Yeah all right. Anyone else for items on the consent agenda? All right seeing no more queues. This will be up Alder Flicky Podesky. Thank you. Item 23 it is asking me to vote on licenses already granted. So I have a difficult time voting on something that's already been done second only to voting on suspending rules so can somebody explain to me why we vote on something that's already been accomplished? You're not good. So you are receiving a report of officer that indicates that she has issued those licenses that's all you're doing. Okay thank you. All right any other items on the consent agenda? All right this will be a roll call vote. Nine eyes. All right those items are approved.
