 Okay, we're all set. All right, so we can call this meeting to order. Yeah. At 6.03 PM. 6.03 PM it is. All right. So did people get a chance to look at the. The meeting minutes from last month. Yes. And are there any changes? Guess what? I have no comments. All right. I have nothing to say. Good to me. All right. Well, are you going to make a motion first or are we good? Well, you said dead. He did. Yeah. Yeah. So the vote is everyone. All in favor. Unanimous. I'm going to save. Yeah, really. We're going to move through this quickly. I think tonight. Public comment. There are no attendees. So that means. I think we should come in. We can amend this and have them. Come into the agenda. If everyone is in agreement with that. And so then we will move forward. And again, I'm going to put Sarah on the spot. But first of all, we have to read. We have to take a vote tonight to reappoint Sarah. We can put that into the minutes. To the community. So I, I'm a little bit of a fear into my heart. I mean, I'm supposed to chair the first meeting tomorrow. I hope. Yes. So we just have to officially and I'll let Meg. Make the motion. Reappointer to the community preservation act committee. All right. So I moved to reappoint Sarah to the CPC. All in favor. You didn't miss. All in favor unanimous. Who seconded. I'm sorry. I did. Okay. Thank you. I just took my eyes off this screen. Second. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Likely. Can I say the only update I can give is that. Yeah, we haven't met, but I and the town manager and the residents advisory committee interviewed. Candidates for the. For Nate's position, the, um, at large seat. And I believe the town manager will appoint somebody. The planning board also has to appoint a new representative. Um, but I'll be surprised if those seats are filled by tomorrow night. So. Yeah. Yeah. But our work is just beginning. What is the total number of seats on the. Nine. Nine. And so how many. So we have. There are five. There is. Historical commission. Uh, housing authority. Conservation commission and LSSC and planning board. Uh, I don't know. I don't know. Okay. Good. Um, so it, it sounds to me like they are still interviewing. So again, if anyone is interested, I would encourage you to apply. I know back. You had to express some. Yeah. I thought we were going to connect before I put in my application, but I did work on my application. Okay. I'm just going to. I wanted to just touch base with you after the meeting. And then I'll submit it. Oh, awesome. Okay. Well, great. Um, and it's a little confusing. I'm not. Sure. If seats will be, I'm not sure if the list, the membership list on the website is up to date or not. It might be that others are going off. I don't know. So if you're interested, just put your CAF in. And if you explicitly mentioned CPA committee, then you will definitely get interviewed. Great. Okay. Thank you. Strategic plan next steps. So at this point, I wanted you to hopefully you all have your calendars. I'm trying to come up with a date that we can schedule to meet with the together as, as a committee again with, you know, so staff members, commission members to sort of hammer out our priorities for next year. Um, I think at the last commission meeting, we talked about certainly the name change being one of the top priorities. Um, so we, the other part of this is I'd like to establish a subcommittee that really focuses on the marketing end of this. And I know that you staff has volunteered to, um, help from, you know, the commission. Um, this is, uh, you know, it's not enough. I'm not sure we have to vote on this, but I'm not sure we have to vote on this. Um, but I'm not sure we have to vote on this. I'm not sure we have to vote if there's anyone else interested in volunteering. That would be great. I think two people from the commission, probably. Two people in myself, uh, two staff members and myself. And I'm not foreseeing a lot of meetings, uh, because I think we have some, you know, some really talented individuals and we, you know, who know about marketing and. Um, I'm not sure we have to vote on this. Uh, on this the, there is a little caveat here. The move has not happening as quickly as. Well, I kind of anticipate it anyways, but it's, it's not happening as quickly as I would hope back to the bank center. So I think that we should probably proceed. Um, with the name change before we did, you know, and not wait on the move and hopefully get that underway this fall. I think it will work. I think it'll work. I think it's been a long time since I've been here for the last year around the first of the year. So that depends on what the committee, subcommittee decides. How does that sound to people? I would be willing to. Do that. Hey, anyone else? Come in. Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, maybe what we could do is yeah what do you think I'm gonna have our marketing guru take the lead on this what do you think Yusef do you think we could just bring as many people as whoever wants to be involved in this you know especially if people get busy so that way even if we don't have everybody it'll be a good group but I think maybe if we do like the name change and now say sometime mid-fall and then when the move happens we like introduce the logo or something like that you so that'll give us kind of a phased approach to it I will not volunteer for that one I understand you're you will have your plate full yeah absolutely okay that sounds good then because yeah I think there may be more than one or two also on the staff who might be interested in being a part of this so we'll just we'll do that that sounds great so was there a date that I want to start with you guys first that is better toward let's see I'm just looking at my calendar over here I go off screen maybe the week of the 20th of September I can do any day except the 22nd any day but the 22nd and pretty much that's my entire month it's just I have jury duty I don't know what that's gonna lead to all right I imagine it'd be an evening meeting six o'clock like this every time I get jury duty I end up on cases so lucky you that's hard that's hard work the 23rd do I hear that that's a Wednesday that works for me all right check on my schedule that doesn't work for me let's let's do another one I can do Tuesday what works for you Victor Tuesday works Tuesday what time Tuesday doesn't work for me yeah okay doesn't work for me either Monday Thursday Monday or Thursday 21st of the 24th Thursday Monday is the golf tournament for the Chambers so I'll be busy yeah we're bit so 24th you aren't going once that was good going twice sold so sounds good what time 4th 6 p.m. is that that works all right so I will let the staff know that's happening awesome thank you so that would be the meeting of all of us and then from there probably you said I'm thinking like the first week of October we pulled together the other group yeah so that this will be the big meeting and then we'll we'll go we'll do the subcommittee meetings later is that work sound good okay well you reach out to Stephanie and see if she's interested in thank you for reminding me of that I will yeah just making a note and subcommittee okay right to then brings us right up well we are moving very quickly night any any more comments about the strategic plan I think yeah now it's just now the work is ahead of us and taking those goals and making them a reality it's kind of exciting very excited all right so quickly the coming up next is the director's report let's grab the right paper I'll start with sports what's happening in the fall believe it or not we have actually two three four five six seven different programs sports programs coming up in addition to what's happening at the golf tournament at the golf tournament that you've got my use if you've got me on the golf tournament again in addition what's happening with the golf course but so we have Amherst youth football the co-ed non-contact we're having clinics for second through eighth graders non-conduct obviously I said ace tennis instruction the ultimate skills clinic that is happening that actually starts tomorrow youth cross-country we have a group SN the sugarloaf mountain athletic club track clinic that'll be happening and we have a group and I'm not sure Meg maybe you know what this stands for NESC junior soccer yeah so that's happened for K through sixth graders and then a new problem program called girls on the run for third through fifth graders that we'll be hosting ourselves so it's a this is great a lot of good stuff Nick's Nick's gonna done an outstanding job pulling this together and we we just have a lot a lot going on so this is great in the sports world in addition to all his multiple shifts at the golf course the field as far as fields and facilities the co-facts league is I think winding down now and however the fall ball for the for the little league is happening the I was out just recently over at Miller River and to be honest with you the fields are looking a little tattered I kind of feel bad about that because I know they they put a lot of money in and volunteered a lot of man hours and woman hours to to make those fields much much better so hopefully they can get them back into shape but they said that that that program is going to start on sort of a you know mostly clinics and things like that so that's good aquatic yeah questions and just yeah I'm in any time please okay yeah is the drought causing the on the field I mean I think I think the issue was that the DPW would have gotten in there at least a mo that they have a lock on that field that DPW doesn't have a key to and then it was quite overgrown and I think we also I think different parents have come on board you know different rates of enthusiasm this happens it kind of cycles and unfortunately it just seems not to have been cared for in that that feel those two fields are generally taken care of by the associations it is it really proper that they have that they can spend they can lock it off to I think DPW is working on that with yeah they were they were surprised yeah all right they may have done it to keep dog walkers off there without realizing that that's also keeping maintenance workers helping out all right okay aquatics Grop Park a little stumbling block was closed this past weekend much to my chagrin I didn't know about it until later unfortunately so we had actually planned to have staff member up there over the long holiday weekend and we were doing to do conduct some surveys that person was going to do that so those weren't we weren't able to do but apparently there was some sort of a mechanical issue and I haven't yet been informed whether or not that has been resolved hopefully that will be taking care of soon and it is scheduled to stay open until the 27th just like the pool at Mill River so I'm hoping that we hear good news and it's nothing too serious as we move forward but I know the kids that I saw using it when I was up there and it was working just loved it things were going really well and and people were just so enthusiastic and happy to have that as a resource and it's just fabulous so and I'll keep you informed as to where we are with the status of that the folks at the outdoor pool at Mill River exceedingly happy that we're still able to continue keeping that open till through the 27th just heard lots and lots of good positive feedback and you know we're just giving the community something to do and you know there's a physical fitness certainly component to that especially for the lap swimmers who utilize the facility but every it's basically full all the time all the slots are pretty much cool of course you know the weather is cooling down that may change a little bit but so far it has been remarkably popular which is great and we've been able to staff it based largely on the fact that schools are opening later I'm not sure we would be able to do that if that wasn't the case so we will continue doing what we're doing we're also monitoring continue to monitoring the social distancing there the on the on the deck in the pool and the deckhouse and people still for the most part everyone has come with positive comments about how safe they feel at the facility which is excellent we're still looking at ways and just begun the process really of exploring ways we could possibly use the middle school pool during the pandemic and the school courses I'm sure they're protective of their thus keeping their space secure so we will see what happens I'd be great at least if we could offer open swim in the weekends but we'll see and all of that is contingent on what phase we are in the governor's sort of regulations as well Becky I was gonna say the phase one reopening does not have students in the middle school it has phase one students going to the high school so that will buy like some time when no one's actually using the building for learning and with the polling actually went really really well within the building the buildings on election day that was what the superintendent said during his school committee update so there might be room for that negotiation for until at least phase two which is November could you expand on that in terms of being went well like what the clean up afterwards yeah the town had a protocol for clean up afterward and it the superintendent's update was that it went really smoothly and like they had no issues kind of thing and there is projected to be classes the day after the next voting cycle which will be in school so if you know if metrics you know are within the projections then students would return the day after voting which means that maybe some of those concerns around excess people in the building after the fact will have been addressed uh-huh very good thank you any other questions around aquatics all right so let's move to the golf course really exciting news is actually play has been incredibly brisk I know we we brought in almost close to $38,000 in revenue in August which is unheard of we haven't I can't remember when we've had brought in that much revenue and that's you know whether we're not doing our pro shop at the way we normally would our beer and wine cells are not quite when it's not in front of you sometimes they don't think about it they're more apt to unfortunately bring their own in which they're not supposed to but so that is mostly golf and carts which is pretty incredible so we're hoping that that trend continues certainly a lot of that is driven by the student population and with the student population and different and lots of beginners we have we've seen you know we've had some challenges on the course but John's been able to dress address those as as they come up in terms of you know if there's damage or other incidents that happen there but for the most part I think it's it's been terrific and it's a really it's just shows you know if it's that we're able to provide a resource for people you know recreational resource and it is being taken advantage of by lots and lots of folks so that's great a lot of new faces up there a lot of new golfers and so that's really exciting you said did you have I know you golf a lot there so I'm sure you wish it was more yeah I know I'd get in trouble no but it's definitely you know obviously the weather didn't cooperate you know as for the actual health of you know the grass and stuff like that but you know right now it's back you know it's kind of looking very happy now so after aerating actually helped a lot too with the greens and you know it was good what you could tell the difference when when you were able to get more people to work with John you know so I think it's good I'm wondering is the car usage a lot more as a percentage now that people are supposed to be one in the car um I'll have to look at that more closely to be honest I'd like to compare it to other years I'm not sure I would think you know just from an anecdotal you know it seems like there are a lot more carts being used when I come up there's few in the corral on a Friday Saturday Sunday definitely I mean this past weekend we were straight out and there was a point where carts just weren't available because they were all out yeah no I think it looks good then you know I think it's just I wish there was a way and maybe now with Nick having his first season under his belt you know we can you know I know a couple people that would be willing to help on it on like an ex-officio kind of committee you know to try to help them out and do different things and maybe bring in more beer sales have people hang out more and find out other ways of to get some income so well it's part of the it's part of the big picture beer and wine and and other snacks and and what have you there is just a difficult operation wouldn't wouldn't the state laws about our guidelines about no bars you have to have real food you can't just serve alcohol and snacks right but we'll have to look into that yeah but I'm finding a way around it you know money when we can and this is one of the only things that we do that brings money we do offer you know we have hot dogs and we have other snacks so I think we've covered that pretty well okay if we have people helping and working you know we can do more hot dogs and burgers or whatever you know the thing that we can explore a little bit more figure out how to do that all right and we're not a traditional bar at all and it's kept in it's it's a single-serve kind of operation so it's a little different than it's not a bar I just want to make that clear yeah I would say there's something else I want to just add on to what you have said is what part of the goals and objectives this year for the the town's budget and whatnot that whole process was to appoint an advisory committee and to look at operations so you know you said and if anyone else is interested in helping on that committee we'll probably pull that together in November so let me know or let you said no if you're interested in the two of us now our heads together and put together a committee of you know they're a lot of good business people out there certainly there's a lot of expertise at the university and within our membership I have we have some really capable people yes Sarah sorry there were those fellows or maybe it was one fellow came about a year ago hoping to expand entertainment options there would I don't know if he's around I don't remember who it was change I'm not really pushing to make it a you know money maker and yeah I'm not sure what happened to him honestly I haven't spoken to him since I think at least since he said he was gonna do that but again yeah so I don't know what's happened but well I mean I think you might be one to include in the contact if he is still interested because I think he was looking for some support from us to move forward with any changes yeah yeah I have his information I don't have it handy but I know who you're talking about yeah he was one of the gave one of the citizens proposals for the capital planning group and yeah capital group but anyways yep well thank you we can follow up with him I'm just trying to remember his last name but it's not coming all right so this is under after school but it's really child care so some interesting developments have happened and quite frankly I'm not really caught up on everything hopefully by next week I'll have more information and writing from the state I don't have it now but let's see I think it was Thursday the state came out with a new kind of relaxation of childcare for municipalities that in fact municipalities could provide childcare in a different way that it wasn't overseen by EEC which is the state entity that oversees our school age program but by local authorities so it would be much like how we run our our day camp so we're we're sort of investigating this the schools have approached me asking if LSEC would provide daycare at the middle school but they want to do it with all of the three different after school programs at one site I see your face Becky yeah and my first reaction was much like your reaction Becky it just doesn't make any sense they had they have between 17 and 30 families right now who are interested these members these would be children of staff members from the school and certainly there would be staff members from the town so those would be your first two priorities and I'm not sure if they anticipate opening up to the public or not I don't think so though so then it becomes we would be running three programs for ten kids each and I'm not sure how that would work so I'm I'm confused I'm concerned doesn't it just it doesn't make sense to me but maybe I'm missing something so I know that Marta Gravera tried to reach me today and we're playing phone takes so I will try to follow up with her in the morning and just investigate this a little more but I could see us instead based on the relaxation of sort of the regulations in the child care regulations and possibly our ability to provide child care at a different site a town-owned site let's say either the library the bangs I'm not sure where that would be that's still up for discussion that's not you know nothing cut in stone or anything here I would just at this point sort of brainstorming how this might work but I think would be better if we just kind of went and did our own program versus trying to do it with two nonprofits who would run separate programs in addition to ours at the middle school so I'll leave it there and now I'm open for questions and comments I just I had one so is this the same program that you were talking about the last meeting that could potentially be a cracker firm right and now they now they want to do it at the middle school correct you know now that I hear what Becky said about them not having any students there I sort of get where they're going there but I just don't see three of us all competing for the same kids just not working for me yep I got a question is this is this just is this just for a ton of embers employees I believe and again I haven't had the discussion yet with Martha Gravera but initially that was the plan it would just be for staff members from the schools and staff members from the town's children's children Sarah so is there anything for the residents right well that's what that's my concern yeah because I could use that could use it yeah I'm sure we can fill it and if it's even if it's a town town program you know I think it should include residents I agree I would like to see it expanded myself right I don't know how you just I mean I would be interested to hear what is the justification for using town resources specifically for town employees you know I understand the need but as Victor says it's a lot of people who desperately need it so I don't know I mean so I know you don't know much but don't I don't have that clearly we're curious about I feel like I'm sensing the same sort of concerns I have yep Becky my understanding as a staff person is that only staff who had children in school like K through six who were being asked to return to the building but did not have their kid like could not say they could return to the building because that they they did not have child care because the school that their child would attend was not in person in a way that would allow them to work which is why the district looked at it do you have any have you heard anything it's a rationale of having all three of the different providers be at the middle school that you saying it two minutes ago is the first I've heard of that and I it kind of goes against the blending of different groups of kids so I don't know if they're anticipating a survey just closed on Friday requesting child care or the deadline was like Friday to request child care if you were going to be returning to school um so I don't know if that was the reason for three or that like I'm not entirely certain I know that the survey closed on I think it was Friday afternoon okay yeah the person the individual I talked to is his name is Dain Dwayne Shambl and he works for Marta both of you know they do the outside of school I forget the official time out of time program there so um I was you know I voiced my concerns and then he said that that Marta would be calling me so we'll have that discussion hopefully tomorrow morning and I'll also have a discussion with the town manager tomorrow morning as well so all right so I just want to make sure we're all on the same page you I mean does anyone have a different feeling that we should be with the other two providers at the middle school no or any other really have any objections I just have questions so go ahead just learn more yeah I think we need to we need a little more information that's a lot more information that's for sure yeah I could say it's really like this is such a huge need right now and um but and I think we're well situated after you know holding the aquatics program by you know we're not through yet but we were very successful with that you know we know we know how to put our protocols down how to follow them and we've been we've been you know really vigilant and conscientious about making sure we have a safe space for folks to recreate and certainly childcare falls under our our previ so hopefully we can pull something together for the community any other questions all right just a few items related to adult and youth education it looks like we'll be continuing our online presence so doing a variety of different programs that we'll have in terms of virtual programming for kids but right now we're the only program that we'll be doing it's actually a zoom type program it's called real world math for middle school and high school age kids and and outdoors for adults we'll be viewing the the kujang and the yoga again and those have both been very popular with adults outside in you know and again but weather-dependent but has been have been extremely well received by the community next is special events so we've got Halloween coming up we're working with the bid and the Amherst chamber right now to to come up with some sort of programming for Halloween for kids um we have a couple of ideas that were sort of you know kind of percolating one would be um they're a trick or treat my ride Halloween car parade so a contest around you know families decorating their cars kids in the car is kind of themed out and whatever that that car looks like or however they want to present uh so we'd have a parade and at the end we would hand out packaged you know things for for kids the trick or treating i noticed some communities that already put out the word that they are not going to allow trick or treating i i'm not sure what Amherst is going to do but um and there may be something from the state i don't know around that so we're we're looking at you know just different ways to to have some fun certainly the the uh the the painting of the Halloween windows that we've done is something we think we can definitely pull off again for the different businesses and i think the chamber is excited to be part of that again and the bid and um and then the and then doing a program around masking you know maybe a contest and you know i have kids involved like online they could show us their masks and take pictures and i would just be really fun so so nicky is working on that with me and and um we'll have something to to put put forward and and happen in um when the Halloween went the end of the end of October so fun yeah any ideas questions yeah yeah jack the lantern contest people could bring them stick them on the common they you know it'll be hard thanks you know you carve it at home sure let me write you could write a number like if it were a contest you could write your last name on the back of it but light them up and stick them good idea put around the common mm-hmm see who can grow the big area what was that sorry victor who can grow the biggest pumpkin you know my my only concern with the trick my ride thing which i love in part but that that is only available to people who have a car so i want to find a way where other people could be involved um and i wonder if we could like i would love to think of a way that we could be more inclusive of people who don't have their own transportation um i went like maybe we could encourage what i was trying to think like i wonder if we could have materials to like make scarecrows and like like there there's ways that we could involve the community without making it dependent on a car or like trick your stroller kind of thing or you know a bike kind of thing where you that i think we were just trying to figure out a way to still have sort of a parade like we've had the kids love that but yeah that's tricky but what if we did have a couple of buses for kids that didn't have cars i don't know that would that be like other kids in buses i don't think that kind of separates people i see what you're saying i love you also have to spread them out so far on the bus but the type right it doesn't necessarily have to apply to a car i mean a stroller a some kid in a scooter and they just decorated just gotta be you know cars and strollers and bikes and make sure there's no one you know hits one another physically distance or something and differently the strollers go last or whatever safest we'll talk to the police we'll let them decide how we should do it yeah i think that's and yeah that trick my ride is anything that you how you get around bike stroller i like that you can also have the parades on different routes like you can have a bike parade down one section a car parade through the center of town like different ways where people would be encouraged to go downtown for a longer period of time and maybe grab some lunch or something but well just like a regular parade you got the marching bands go at one point you got the you know so you can have the cars go first at like say one o'clock and then the strollers and bikes can go at two o'clock or you know so it's ongoing but it's different things for different people we just have to be careful with the the gathering again we'll have to we'll work with the the the public health department and the police and you know make sure we stay within the guidelines make my question about this is i'm wondering like okay so if we do a car parade or anything are there supposed to be people at the side of the roads cheering or like is it just a parade of cars all hunking their horns probably going to be just a parade of cars going by the different businesses hopefully the business owners will be out waving the seniors parade though there was some decent attendance for the class of 2020 parade oh that's right so and that was socially distanced kind of at the height of like everyone's yeah of the pandemic so they had a long enough route that people could really stretch out kind of thing and they were in cars correct or they were in cars yep okay i'm just i guess i'm also wondering like if if we're gonna have families decorate their cars or their bikes or their strollers or you know whatever skateboards i don't know they can anything um who would actually be watching this like if are the kids watching i don't know like i'm just trying to picture are the kids in the cars yeah niki's idea is that they come to let's say the they finish up at the high school i'm just throwing this out i don't know for sure and then there's sort of a recognition if you will participation award and have you and then maybe trick-or-treat bags for each kid yeah i think this is some fun to do this is you know yeah with the family that's that's all yeah anything anything i mean if word comes down that they can trick-or-treat i mean how bad is that these poor kids yeah no fun we heard the halloween storm yeah yeah that's happened that's true all right any more on that i was i was mentioning jpm facebook live um like at the end of the parade so if people don't feel comfortable i don't know venturing out they can still see it you know the cars at the end of the parade come by oh that'd be cool do it live and then we could record it too so that's awesome yeah all right love these great ideas thanks all right let's move on um see niki's still going to it went in her spare time she's going to be doing um um let's see uh the program called um family samos i'm not exactly sure what that is and i still need some more details of what that is but it's going to happen on site at some of the housing areas uh in a socially distanced distant way um and also she's continuing to provide nature kits at puffers pond and gruff park uh quen offering corresponding program online so that is happening um in terms of outreach right now although she's been very busy i mean her schedule has been eating up a lot with working at puffers pond and at cherry hill so she is limited time right now so once that finishes up um we'll be doing more outreach talked about strategy planning so much so yeah all the staff just continue to work shifts at puffers pond um the senior center meal deliveries grace has been doing that we all worked um they all worked um as poll workers i kind of went or did my rounds to the various precincts so we were very involved in the election um at the polls and we'll do that as well in um in november so um all right i think that's all i have any comments quite any more questions i have a question please sorry go ahead someone else oh i was just going to say how long um how long do you anticipate people being at puffers for you know i think it's just about the same as the pools till about the 27th and that's weather dependent we've had days where we didn't go up because of the weather uh this weekend looks cool so i'm not sure i know i'm not anticipating a lot of crowds there last weekend was quite busy though and how about cherry hill how long i mean i yeah cherry hill will stay up until november 15th 14th in there again weather dependent usually mid we are there mid november any other questions comments great work okay well this is good so we'll we'll meet i'm excited about getting started on starting to implement some of the the goals and the strategic plans we'll get that going we're going to have a busy fall and with the name change it's going to be an exciting time for us um uh so on that note there aren't any more questions or comments we need to think about our next meeting date our regular this is in addition to our meeting with the staff sarah i'm sorry i'm sorry i should have this should have occurred to me earlier during the cpa thing um the the request for proposals i think is we hope that it'll go out next week sometime and i think uh it's the general hope that that the committees have looked at them ahead of time right that even if staff are developing them that that that they do come to cpa with the backing of the like the commission if there's if there's going to be a recreational recreation project proposed that yeah i haven't heard i'm sorry i did i may wrap but um right now i i don't i i had asked dav if we don't really have much but i'm trying to figure that out so do you know those are due so we can time this i mean we could do that as part of our meeting um on the 24th sorry did i miss we have a new commission meeting date no no the 24th when we meet with the staff we could do a you know use maybe part of that the very beginning of that meeting to talk about potential proposals would that work i think i think the um they do i think the schedule will will be going up if it isn't already on the website because i don't know if it's if it's actually the committee that has to approve it or it just comes out of the accounting department i really don't know i mean i've seen a draft schedule but i don't know if it's and i can tell if i can find it i'll tell you what the draft dates are but i don't know when it moves from draft to yeah i think we've got a little bit of time um it wouldn't be this quick so why don't we do that we'll add that to our maybe just to vote 15 20 minutes uh to our meeting on the 24th to discuss c-pack is that okay there's anything you yeah and then if we make a you know we we have and then we'll do i hopefully we'll have more of an update to you as if there is anything for recreation i kind of feel right now we have our our hands full with other projects that we're trying to complete so um you know the only one that might be the outlier is is mill river again if we decide to apply for a park grant we were turned down two years ago i'm not sure if there's um a lot of energy about reapplying this year so i uh let me uh dave's on vacation but i think he had mentioned uh in an email that i was just looking at before we started that he's he wanted to to get together and discuss um potential projects but okay well he should he should know he should know when they're due yeah yeah that's the only one i can think of um just and while i'm i'm talking about that the um the basketball court i've been assured by gilford that that work is going to start this fall on the basketball court at mill river so that will be the first phase of that is moving that to the west and enlarging it to include a children's uh section of court at mill river and renovating that that resource okay another kind of random question do you have or is there a timeline for kendrick park at all is there a timeline yeah um let me get that to i don't have it handy i know there's been some activity i was on vacation and there was there was a meeting that i wasn't able to attend so um i know there were deadlines and some some things that had to be submitted and i'm sure that all is happening as you can see there's activity at kendrick park now in terms of putting in that asphalt pathway um but i can i can provide that to you at the next commission meeting sounds good okay anything else all right then um next commission meeting let's see september october so the next if we were talking about a month away would be the second wednesday in october the 14th i can do that works for me that works for everyone tober 14th that's six o'clock okay next
