 This is the order at 435 PM. Thank you. That's a high tower. That's really key for. Commiting this early studies that we put everything in tonight. Is he busy night ahead in the municipal government. And it starts with this meeting. So, the first item on the agenda is the agenda. I welcome. Motion. Opposed amendments. To adopt the agenda as amended. The final version of the agenda. I see it. Excellent. Second. Second by Councilor McGee. Thank you. Any discussion of the agenda. Seeing none, we'll go to vote. All those in favor of the motion, please say aye. Aye. Aye. Opposed. Motion carries unanimously. We are. Two point one the public forum and. Is there any member of the public. To speak. To the work. Seeing none. You appear. Chair. You should be able to address the board. Right. Yes. I've unmuted. Thank you, Mr. Mayor. I, as a member of the public, I really look forward to the final budget being discussed by the Board of Finance. This comment is not so much for the mayor, but it is for him because it's the Board of Finance is his committee that I understood the reason that the, the meeting on the 20th. Got canceled, but I really feel that. It's really important for the public to understand that the people that are overseeing the overall recommendation of the committee, the committee that have been elected tonight have a chance to. Do that critical eyeball at the end. And I'm just saying that hoping that in the future. If a meeting gets canceled, another would be scheduled. So there would be that discussion. I think it's an important discussion. Because a lot was spent, a lot of time was spent on the police department. And I think it's really important for the public to understand that there are services that get delivered to the community by parks and rec by DPW. Some of these services have fees that need to be affordable. And I just feel that I, I would have benefited from hearing that conversation and understanding that the elected officials were looking out for us. So that's number one. The second thing is, because I know you've got a lengthy night. I think it's important for the public to understand that. That the community issue with the affordability of the high school. And the amount that we as a city can offer for them to bond. And the gap. And I look forward to hearing the community discuss it. And maybe even the council discuss it. Because I understand it's in the school board's realm, but it's. It is our community's realm. So thank you again for your time. Great. Thank you Sharon. Are there any other members of the public that wish to speak for clients to see. Looking at the attendees if an attendee wants to be recognized. And now. Okay. Jeremy Farkas. Yeah. I think you want to speak at this stage as a member of the public or are you raising your hand to be part of the. Just raising my hand. You see that I'm here. And if there's anything I can do. When we get it in 4.05, I'm available to answer questions. Awesome. Excellent. Thank you. And there are other members of the airport here. So I am going to close the public forum. And move to the. Consent agenda. We don't always have a, actually rarely have a consent agenda at the board of finance, but given the large number of items we were attempting to work through tonight, we thought that it was pretty attempted to do it this way. Could you maybe just share with the board what you share with me to worry about how you organize this. We'll go through the agenda. And I don't know which items. Yes. The items that went on to the consent agenda are items. Leases that have no changes, amendments. Budget neutral amendments. As well as reclassifications. And. And that is the one city council initiative fund request. And that is the criteria that I use everything else is on the deliberative agenda. Excellent. That's how we came to this agenda. Are we ready for a motion? Thank you. Motion to adopt the consent agenda. Thank you. Thank you. Is there a second for our motion? Second. Second by council McKee. Further discussion of the consent agenda. Seeing none. We'll go to a vote. All those in favor of the motion, please say aye. Aye. Are you opposed? Motion carries unanimously. Thank you to this word for working with us this way. That brings us straight to 4.01. We're going to move on to the next item. Which is a grant acceptance for repairs and maintenance. The truth to marketplace. It's a. Very positive. Item. Get some important work done using federal dollars. In the interest of time given that we still despite the consent agenda, I still have 15 more hours. I'm going to not ask for summaries. The board should still request information that you need to provide a summary of the information. We're going to move on to the next item. We'll go to the next item. Let's see if there's a summary. So far as open for questions for. Regardless. 4.01. Sorry. Because the level is a little bit brief. I know that this came through the congressional funding. But just curious as to. Why? What? Why would prioritize this? What? How many times do we ask for it? Yeah. Yeah. And some more details to what it's going to. Yeah. Yeah. Sure. Of course. So as you know, the marketplace does not have access to the general fund. So we do actually have a lot of deferred maintenance on the street, including. Related to weather and our climate. So we have a lot of frost heaps. We have some cracked bricks. We have some leveling that needs to be done. So having bricks. And then you have to be able to bring it back to the early days of the pandemic. So this is going to be a lot of work that you're going to be able to do, but I think that the. I think the. Just to make it accessible. That's. Before I received. Before received. I guess this is the other. Whereas. Experiencing. And it's not a storage. Relationship with marketplace marketplace. And invited. For questions. and has been as current capital investment on the marketplace has always been a challenge and this is one microphone. Any further discussion of 4.01? I move to approve and recommend that the City Council authorize their grant acceptance as recommended on 4.01. Great, the motion is ready and seconded. Any final discussion of 4.01? Seeing none, we'll go to vote. All those in favor of the motion, please say aye. Aye. Any opposed? Motion carries unanimously. And we will move to 4.02. Thank you, Carl. I wish for the request for authorization to enter into a non-signatory, non-signatory airline lease agreement with Sun Country Inc. Sun Country, of course, is one of the, just started a relationship with Sun Country. I understand that it's unusual for a new airline to want to move so quickly to kind of formalized statement with some, at least in this way, and we're excited about this. Excited and shows their commitment that they do want to have a sustainable relationship with Sun Country Inc. Thank you. Questions, the floor is over for questions or a motion from the board. I move to approve and recommend the authorization as recommended on 4.01. Second. Excellent. Further discussion? Seeing none, we will go to vote. All those in favor of the motion, please say aye. Aye. Any opposed? 4.02 carries unanimously. Thank you. We're now moving to 4.83, which is a contract for the engineering and bidding services with a CERO associates for the board terminal second floor renovations. The floor is open on 4.03. President Powell. Thank you. I'll make a motion to approve and that's actually recommended on 4.83. Any further discussion? Motion carries. Sorry. Okay. No further discussion with that. Now we will go to vote. All those in favor of the motion, please say aye. Aye. Any opposed? Motion does carry unanimously. And this brings us, thank you, Mick and Shelby. This brings us to 4.04, which is the aviation director, Marcus, for your adjustment. And this is actually what we're recommending to take to strengthen the search process that is underway. For floors. I'll move to recommend the city council for the prosecution as recommended for talks. Thank you, Councillor Hightower. Is there a second? Seconded by President Powell. I appreciate that we have this on the floor and that it's before us from my perspective. This is an issue that has been concerned about the compensation for this position for many years going back to when I served on the airport commission questions back the last time we did open search for this position back in 2008-2009. And I think this action would help address that. Appreciate the openness to considering it. Floors open for further questions, sir. Councillor Paul. Councillor Paul. The only thing that I would say about this, I mean, I think that it is important that we have a conversation around this. And I think that it is important that we have a conversation about this position, you know, we have not attracted a lot of candidates for this position as yet. I do think that there should be as much as we can possibly do a formalized process that we do this in the right order. And it seems to me that before we go in close to position and then find out that not getting candidates and then do the market factor adjustment first. So that we are attracting candidates will hopefully be more efficient with really big projects. Senator here and there for this process, but we're going to have others in the very near future. And I hope that we will try to do it in that order or at least have a stated process for how we do this. And we don't see Karen here, but thanks very much for the link in the feature staff at this point. Great. Thank you, President Paul. Certainly understand the point. Just a degree. Agree with it. Certainly. It's true that there is no set process. Often we've had feedback to the contrary from various perspectives that there's a reference to see what kind of response we get to this posting to be forming a decision like this. So it's to me, I think it's a great question. And it has been argued both ways, but certainly and certainly we find ourselves in the situation frequently, except for from director level positions where we see to make a change after we've had a period of not having a successful advertising period. So I think there's certainly is not a common position to be in, but I take the point and certainly open to kind of some kind of discussion about what we have to do. And I agree with the council about how to try to do this, particularly with what's required council. Council. With that, are we ready for Council Jen. Yes, I don't think that's wrong. It seems that way. I'm just wondering with the previous seller you have received three applicants from qualified individuals which is a smaller number we'd like it's also less the first pool then we would like as many different perspectives backgrounds represented so also while we may possibly might be able to hire someone initially without making this change something that point that has been made by our insurance insurance or risk is that if you're successful hiring someone there we are below market as we are there is a risk of the person not staying very long after a short period of time here it will proceed much higher but that's not good institution either so I support Council just to say that I agree with and so well I think at least doing the analysis before getting the authorization to bump the cap if you have to so that you can do it as part of the same cycle instead of needing to keep it up or having the few candidates we did have waiting for the approval so that would be maybe a compromise either point taken if there are no further comments do you have a move item we'll go to a vote all those in favor motion to say aye aye motion carries unanimously Council that brings us to item 4.05 we have a big team here to discuss and on the line this is your request to execute an amendment to the license agreement we've made a technologies ink for the continuation of the work created a local area at the Burlington international airport I would like to make an exception to my announcement proposal for this meeting especially the members of the public at home set the context a little bit for what is happening this item follows on the prior actual announcements of how we integrate with the action we expect the council to be taking shortly so perfect so this agreement or this license extension that you're looking at today is with data technologies that we're working with for many many months they are set up with a headquarters building currently at the Burlington airport they've expanded that building extensively and they are now looking at their next site which is this particular proposed property which is the manufacturing site for their electric aircraft mission this site has been under construction with earthwork a significant amount of dirt being moved around in preparation for their overall plan to build that manufacturing site what we're asking for tonight is an extension of that earthworks package to the end of July of this year and also include additional steps to undertake those additional steps include some concrete work some utility work and roadway construction if you remember last time when we presented this there was significant benefit to the city and to the airport because we have not signed them at least yet with data but there's significant benefit to the airport because of this work we performed by data that would stay with the site that's the airport ultimately there is risk associated with data but data certainly understands and knows that so very close to settling our negotiations on the overall lease agreement in fact later tonight we're going to be presenting at an executive session at city council where we are and expecting to bring that lease agreement not license lease agreement to the city council in the July meeting the site has not changed it's the same site that we went forward with at the end of November that site has not changed we continue to work with many of those tenants those tenants that are called the valley tenants we've actually brought a couple of those tenant agreements to you over the last several months on extended lease agreement we are continuing to work with some of those one of those tenants right now Mansfield Health Lake but I feel very well in tune that eventually this summer we'll be very hopeful to bring something back to the city council on board of finance with that particular tenant I think that sums it up very good great fun to do there I just had a appreciate that the rest of the city team have done to I guess the point where we think we are on the cusp of executing this major agreement with data technologies for extended ground lease will be briefing the city council executive session about where that negotiation stands later this evening and I think this is an important step you know I think probably everyone has some sense of when you have a major construction project underway to stop for through the period waiting for final agreement to be created with great major challenges and unnecessary additional expenses and so this is an interim step where the risks are going to be taken by data, I'm taking a step that's an important step on the plan that's been proposed and the data is going to be taken through with the council the executive session today and hopefully the final Brownlee's approval on 18 with that questions I feel like I've asked this question before but just checking maybe it was for the previous actually talked about at some point when we talked about this in the airport there were a lot of tenants who were really unhappy and I guess my question is more unhappy is because I think they were worried about the expansion of data and what that meant for their own needs so I think it's a little bit more about how the other tenants are viewing us that's a great question and I'll throw just a little bit of context of the presentation in November there was no official map associated with that presentation and there was some assumptions that data was going to be occupied a much larger footprint on existing tenant space there is some overlap and that's some of the negotiation that's happening with one particular tenant but the rest of the tenants are very happy in the valley and those of the aviation are the tenants that we're working with today from our flight academy there's great huge developments with the Brownlee's technical center and their aviation program that we're also working with the school district on in that general vicinity as well as the hangar condo associates so we have we've I would say that relationships with those particular tenants are very different than what they were in November and solidified with an extended period at least on their existing footprint there are non-aeronautical tenants that we have had to vacate from the properties but there's also federal regulations that stipulate if the property was purchased with federal funds specifically FAA federal aviation funds aeronautical entities have the preferential lease rights to that particular area and there's much greater benefits of data data development in this particular site and overall aesthetic and development opportunities on that particular site versus to what we had before those were really the only tenants those valley valley tenants the remainder and those are a small portion of our tenants as well our general aviation tenants with dozens of other tenants across the airfield that we are working with on a greater master plan and other opportunities at the air for alternative locations I do think that it's hard to vote on this when we don't have a list of those tenants not that I don't trust you like I hear for it but I think it's hard to say yes to this when we haven't seen the other side of the that's not part of this presentation that's right I think I understand your question I think you should I would submit that there as Nick stated the time in the last discussion there's a lot of moving parts of the time and work is basically unable to answer that fully confirm and communicate with tenants exactly what their status has been you're in a very different place now from my perspective all the tenants except for one tenant and it's from health like that it's a very specific situation it is not impacted by this licensing agreement I think it's fair to say and then we have to have an ongoing negotiation with them if there's something to dispute there I think it's clear it's unclear but to renewal of it that is being worked on so it's a very specific situation with that tenant the other tenants made them at that point we actually have they now have long-term agreements and I don't think there were any kind of outstanding concerns about the action you're taking today it's been quite public there's a lot attention on what's been happening here and I'm not aware of any of the other consultants it's Jeff Lasberg on the line Jeff is not here, he will be later he's not here is that am I I'm not aware of any other than landfill health situations or any other tenants specifically in that area I'm concerned about this license action the science man's field house that we didn't terminate the tenants we terminated this were like the RV park and that it was a temporary situation where because we had no active use we let them store the northern number of RVs on our land on a month month basis and I don't think there's anything to do with it they were hoping they could continue that but it was not something they were entitled to or there have been any long-term expectations that's correct and I would just add that our airport master plan that's been identified for decades including our latest master plan just approved by the FAA a couple of years ago to alter that particular area for aviation use purposes which is what this license ended up with and that was the only other tenant that we terminated as an RV the RV and there was a small landscape company as well so two non-animal tenants will stay where they were the remaining general aviation tenants in that vicinity or right next to this particular site and across the airport have not come forward with any other concerns the fact that all of them have either long-term agreements with the airport on alternative sites or are working with us on growing their footprint in alternative sites as well that's no different than what they did once again sure so that's in relationship to the re-sewing request that happened over the last year or so that request has officially been denied by the subcommittee of the south permanent planning commission and it is not in this vicinity at all it's in fact on the very opposite end of the year literally about a mile away from this site I've worked with many of the neighbors the leadership of the city of South Brompton the planning commission members and the subcommittee members to really approach that in a different alternative format meaning there are ways to help the neighbors as well and be a good neighbor to that Chamberlain area as well as still commit to properly and sustainably growing the airport where we need it to be most importantly is that the conversation but those things can happen together and we're working with I would say a subgroup to really commit to how that works okay I have a question so Jeremy is there something you want to say at this point or just here I'm just here if you have any questions I guess I'd say that right now the area where this work would occur is not occupied by any tenants and as the mayor stated it allows beta to continue preparatory work without having to demobilize and then remobilize all the work that they'll be doing is at their own risk so if for some reason between now and then the city doesn't approve their long-term ground lease the work they'll have done will benefit the airport long-term and the city doesn't isn't required to pay for it so it feels like there isn't a lot of risk to the city in allowing beta to continue to do on city property over the next few weeks thank you Jeremy are we ready for our motion? Councillor James thank you seconded by President Paul further discussion of 4.05 seeing none we will go to a vote all those in favor of the motion please say aye aye very opposed motion carries the yes thank you Jeremy thank you for all that okay excellent good 4.06 east plant wastewater plant I'll follow the pair if you've got a new item and I'll go back to show me up to the board to ask questions if needed I would like to appreciate that I will make the motion to take the action as recommended on board box thank you seconded by Councillor Jang further discussion of the vote all those in favor of the motion please say aye aye opposed motion carries unanimously this brings us to a second DPW item marketplace garage repair contract for structural work with the board all in favor of the motion on board box please say aye second Council please say aye any questions further discussion all those in favor of the motion please say aye aye So the goal of this is really to put just enough into the marketplace garage to get us about a five-year window so we can start the planning process of what's next with that piece of money. I've actually got about $40,000 in my budget to pay for the beginning of that public outreach visioning and actually what those are in this space, so. Hello. No. I have to say that I don't know what the cost of a new garage is, but I'm sure it's significant for a discussion. It doesn't have to be decisions, but the late college garage focus on that somewhere that should bring downtown garage, stair tower, and what's going to be downtown. So that'll be a whole new stair tower. In the future, how can captive that from the elements, it's a Southwest exposure it's getting, it's getting a whole type of pressure. It's through at least working with different pressures on this to do a five to seven. So I've actually budgeted a six year term with a 6% interest. I'm not sure how much we can cover it, but it's going to be five months. The sign is actually market that jurisdiction. They don't have fiscal. So we did to your point, council, Jack, we did present the marketplace condition assessment report the short term strategy to the commission last month. We're trying to spread the. So for the question, we're going to vote all those appear in the motion, please say hi. Hi. Right. Motion carries. Yes. 4.08 design bill stair replacement for the few garage Southwest power. We'll go to the board. Thank you. Thank you. Second. Second. Great. Thank you, Councilor McGee. Second, further discussion. Seeing none. All those appear in the motion, please say hi. Any post. Thank you. Thank you both. Okay. Here we are. The. 4.09. 4.10 are the major budget resolutions. Quite a bit discussion over numerous meetings there before you, it is my hope we're in place. I just wanted to make one last comment. You may have noticed that there was a final version posted at 4.15 of this resolution, despite my best efforts. We have a lot of work to do. I just wanted to make one last comment. You may have noticed that there was a final version posted at 4.15 of this resolution, despite my best efforts. We did find in the state and by the, I mean the talented. W and water resources team. Who realized. On page five. On my 123. I referenced the three attached schedules for water and wastewater. But I had forgotten to attach them. In my 25 page budget resolution. So the only change that was made. Was adding pages 24 and 25. And those are. The private fire protection. The schedule that we saw when Megan presented. And the water and wastewater fixed charges. And volumetric rates schedules. All of that was included in Megan's presentation. And I apologize. It was my error. It should have been in the first version. That is the only thing that changed. From. The version that says final. And the version that says final final. The board like to see their further questions. Ready for recognition. And the interest of time. So. This comes to the council that. After discussing this for the CAO. It seems to make sense that. The other two. I know it's out of order, but. I'm happy to. Make a motion. To form one. As a slate. And I know. Council. After discussing this for the CAO. It seems to make sense that. Combined. And the interest of time. So we have a little bit more time. With the other two. It's out of order, but. I'm happy to. Make a motion. To form one. And I know. Councilor McKee is agreed to do that. So. If no one's. If there's no objections to that. At least do that. And focus the rest of our time. Thank you. That's a motion. Okay. Excellent. That is welcomed. And go back to. After this. Is there a second for that motion? Second. Thank you. Discussion. Any discussion on. 4.11. 4.1. 5. I think. It's. Exit. Discussed. Is. It's. I was just wondering. What would you do with the. We'll be the plan with the. For the crisis response, that could inspire. Sure. I'm happy to speak to that. I do would suggest that we. Just to clarify and make sure we're on the same page where we're going. The motion. The motion on the table. That has been seconded is for 4.1.1 through 4.1.5. That none of the. Various actions contained with that really touch on that piece of it. That really. I would suggest I'll speak to that when we get back. Excellent. A further discussion of 4.1.1 through. 4.1.5. Seeing none. I will. We will go to vote all those in favor of motion. Please say aye. Aye. Sorry. Post. Motion carries unanimously. And so those are recommended. Now let's go back to 4.09. And I'll answer that question. And. Here, here is. Here's how. We. Would like to proceed with this and how the budget. Has us proceeding. It's actually a pleasure resolution. That speaks to this is. We. There is a gap between the fully. Funded model. The full. The full bid that we've received. Or. The. Crisis resolution. That speaks to this is. We. There is a gap between the fully. Funded model. The. Crisis response. Services. As, as. You know, as we went out to. To the public with it after the clutch discussion with various. Different stakeholders. And that is concerning. I have an in discussion for many months with. State officials about the possibility. State closing some or all of that gap. But. There's. We characterize it as strong interest from senior. Agency for Human Services officials and doing that either. Through. Appropriation. You know, through either through the. There are several size of all. Mental health related. Funding sources that are possible funding sources for this. There's also the possibility that. There's also the possibility that. There's also the possibility that. There's also the possibility that we could be eligible for. Direct kind of billing to. To. Medicare Medicaid. And. You know, given that. I appreciate your prior questions. Other counselors expressed. Egerness for this. Program to. To. Begin. And. I have a question about this. Yeah. I am asking for a little bit more time for us to complete those conversations with the state. And attempt to get this. New program started. Without. Additional. A local funding. Less necessary. If it is necessary. I understand this. Having that conversation. We'll be back. But at this point. I think it would not be prudent to take that stuff given. Status of state conversations. So. As I've committed. If the council is the budget resolution pass. As noted. As. As before you. We will give you monthly updates on. On this effort. From now into the fall. To try to address. You know what I think it's a wide a held sense of. In the end of the year. I think we're going to have to. I think we're going to have to see this. We're going to have to see this. So that's how we're proposing. That's correct. Thank you. Any further. Discussion. I don't think we have a motion for 4.09. So we did have a motion for the. The other four. But. And what. Which. Gills with the remedy side. Of the budget. It's a.枱 for some. My. Thank you very much. For that. President Paul seconds. Thank you. Further. Discussion. Four point nine. See none. We'll go to a vote. All those are fair emotional. Say aye. I. Thank you. She carries unanimously. Very much welcome. You know, it's a recommendation of the budget. I certainly my perspective that. Appreciate the months of engagement from from the board on this item. Thank you. And. Let's. Then let's come again. We should do it. I think we've done many years for every group and ask a few things about the process of people like different. Future. We talked about that, but. Thank you for getting to this. This recommendation that's made. 4.10 is the annual tax assessments. And request a. Motion on this, I will. In the budget memo that. The municipal. Property taxes. There is some increase as we have. Use the full authority in order to have given us. Overall, because. The school budget. And because of changes. Decisions made. I'll kill you regarding the state education fund. All of the positive things. In the. In the budget that you just recommended. Are possible in a year where overall. Overall. The priest. The property. About 4%. You're now. So. In that context. Do we have any motion? Are we ready for a motion? Since I know it's not the most fun thing to do. I'll make that motion. Take the action. Directly. Thank you, President Paul. A little more fun in the years that we know. There's a. The world picture. Looks pretty good. Second by. Councillor Chang. Discussion. 4.10. Seeing. No. Motion. Motion. Motion. I know it's not the most fun thing to do. I'll make that motion. Take the action. Directly. Thank you, President Paul. A little more fun in the years that we know. There's a. The world picture. So. Seeing none. We'll go to vote. All those in favor of the motion, please say aye. All right. Very opposed. Motion carries unanimously. And thank you. For that. A recommendation and thank you for the collaboration tonight to complete the lengthy agenda with. Even it's a spare. Without objection. We are returned. To. 2pm. And I believe. You will. You can meet upstairs. In. A little minutes. Yeah. Go to get it. Reading. Upstairs at 5.30. Or the expected. It's true.
