 In spite of the hour, we will start in Morpheus, like the meeting for the day of September 20th. It's the first hybrid in which we are allowing people to join us in the internet or zoom or call in. So, I'm going to go ahead with a general public comment. And I see Steve Adams. Yeah, Steve would you like to share something tonight? I would. Why don't you come on and join us here too? Thank you. I'd be happy to. I didn't know you were going to be doing that. I was quite aroused. So, the committee in our last little meetings suggested I come on at least one specific point that I figured since I was going to be here, I could give a very short update. I don't want to take a long of your time. I have some notes if you want to take one and pass it around. And I have a copy of our current budget. And I thought also if you want to take one, pass it around. And this is the rat committee. Steve, we all know. More town recreation. Yes. Other people do that. Can I just get off my pen or something? Oh, that's really good. Thank you. So, you have before you, I don't want to call it an agenda. Just a couple of things I was going to raise to really the most important thing I took first. We've been meeting via Zoom and then outdoors for seems like the last two years. And it's going to start to turn cold here. We're going to get quickly one more meeting next Monday outside. But at the end of October, that's not going to fly anymore. Unless we're going to go back to Zoom meetings, we'd like to meet in here. We did in the past before COVID. We'd like to do that again. I hand wrote in 5.30 p.m. to meet the fourth Monday of each month. That would mean October 25th would be the next meeting. And if you guys can see clear that allows to meet in here going forward, at least as long as it's safe. And there's a way to do that. That's what we are preference. After that, we don't have any ideas moment. I don't see a problem with that. I'm going to do some guidelines right here on the table. Yeah. We'll do that. And this will be available for you as well, Steve. If you want to use this out. Yeah, allows people to join the meeting virtually. Okay. Right. And they're projected up. So we might need a little, if we need a little schooling on how to do that, that would be maybe extra credit. We can do that sidebar. But what we were hoping is that since we're going to be minutes after the next meeting, which is next week, it's always nice to give a post where are you going to meet and that's why I was trying to get out ahead of it so that we could count on physically meeting here. So I can round back with you outside of this setting as to key, any of the procedures you want us to be aware of. All right. Do you have, I don't know about the office entry. Do you have, does anyone have a key? How would you guys be able to do it last time? That's part, last time, what did we do? Do you want to, so there was one Dwayne was still on the board and I don't know if somebody entrusted him with a key, honestly. I think he might, when he was in the school, he was coming over getting a key and then maybe drawing it back off. I think Chuck Burt also, when he was on the committee, helped with that. But Dwayne's no longer with us and Chuck's no longer with us. So I'm sure we can figure out another person, maybe it's trustworthy enough to get a key for a temporary amount of time to get in and out. Right. If somebody wants to pick it up on that day and then we'll give you an envelope and you can drop it in the drop box when you guys need it. Like I said, whatever procedures you guys would like for entry, cleaning, whatever it is, you just let us know and we'll, I'm sure we can do it. No, we're fine. The next thing on the list was the budget. I gave you a quick down the dirty. We've been terrible at spending our money this year. So we're well under budget. And part of the reason is that we didn't spend any money on the POTA parties, which I, the POTA party rather, which I think were somehow school covered in naming and had some extra money from COVID or something else to do it. But just wanted you to be aware that there's the one in our budget that we need to pitch in for that. And then I put a second bullet down to our first bullet, which was when we did the trail thing, there was a matching grant of a thousand that the town had sort of committed to, I would say, or agreed to. I'm not sure if the town paid that amount. And if not, we actually had it in our budget for this year to put money to what was going to be phase two. But the rider did not get that grant. So I'll leave it to the... We'll have Cheryl then look into that. I just thought it would be a good idea to look into it as we're sort of getting towards the end of the budget. And then I put a question, an open question, in that the trails have been so successful that we didn't get the grant this year, but maybe it would be wise to consider the wisdom of building trails under a budget that we create out of the town, at least partially. I'm not here to weigh that five percent. The next thing on it is a portion manager plan. That's something of topical discussion that we've actually been taking up for the last several months, is a portion of our monthly meeting. And we'll continue to do so, because we know that folks rely on us maybe for some oversight and or input, but we don't feel like we're the driver of the process. We've said that from the start. It's really a planning commission job. It was its inception. They've even agreed when I've talked to the folks that they said, oh yeah, we should have a joint meeting. We should do something. And then it was COVID. And then it was this and that. So I'm just here to nudge and say that we're definitely well over the 10 years and we should sort of be doing that. A note about Morfest. And I'll remind our group in a note that John had said he would lead a mushroom walk and it would arrange for the matter of riders to have a bike ride. And Susan had said that she would lead a pickle walk demonstration of sorts. Or sort of like. Have you checked in with the Morfest community and you know all about that? I haven't. But Meg Schultz is involved with Morfest and she, in theory, sits on our board although she's misauscaled. Well, she's been very busy with Sitfest. I get it. I would suggest you reach out to the two. I'll tickle the riders and John and everybody. Susan will be easy. It's a yes for her. You can talk to her on the end. Lindsey. I'll make sure of everywhere. I'll make sure of the end. Yes. And I can call John and Sue. I just wanted to know, you know, there'll be some stuff. Oh no, it's fine. But they're really, you know, working on the way things are and I'm sure they appreciate it. Trails update. I just thought I'd bring some visual aids and just a quick note on the trails because that's been a big part of what we've done the last few years. You can have a look. If you go out on the trails themselves, there's approximately 200 of these now out on our trails. It was trail markers. You know, instead of a paint on a tree we decided to go in markers. And then some suggested that we didn't have enough so we got a whole bunch more and then these arrows. And I'd have been out there and the trails are quite well marked at this point. I've only got a handful of each of these left. We can always order more. It's easy. We have a bunch of them to do with it. First people said we should mark the trails and we did. And then people said we should mark them more because we don't know where to go. So now you should be able to follow the trails quite well. There's also those engraved wooden signs if you haven't been out on the trails. There's one here that you can see an example of. But all of the trail pits and all of the intersections, the important intersections, there's now proper wooden engraved signs that make you really feel like this is a trail system and that I'm not going to get lost and somebody's maintaining it maybe. It just is more inviting. And we've noticed a real increase in usership. I mean, especially this lower nature trail is getting hammered. And even now up on the upper trails I'll call it, when I used to go out I would rarely see a body or evidence of somebody. And now I'm passed by a mountain biker or a walker almost every single time. And I see the evidence, the lawful tracks and the footprints and the dog prints. So I would tell you that trail use has really really increased a lot in the last year. COVID made it. It might have been a good timing because we were marking the trails and proving the trails at the same time that people really needed a place to go. And I was out on an action for the first time myself. And I was really pleasantly surprised. I mean, realized what a system that we have there. Were you able to follow the trail pretty easily? Yeah. Stay on the trail? Yeah. It's really nice and you guys do a good job there. I'd probably recommend anyone to get out there and do a little trail. Is there a trail out of Southville? There is. Where is it? That's the only kind of remote trail head I would call it. It's not here at the school. It's right opposite the cemetery. Sometimes people will park actually at the cemetery across the lake. Next to it, it's almost just across the street. And people, I see cars parked there and I see views from that trail. I live on Southville, so I'm able to see it. I see people coming on and walking the dogs in like that. I'm just going to hand this one around. I didn't make copies. This really should have been handed out at the Foraging Management Point. I just wanted you to see that we had some contact with Vermont Land Trust, Caitlin, over there, and she's got her head in the game. So whenever it's appropriate, the Planning Commission and the Silk Board see fit, we could probably fire up that process at some point. It could be easily to take a year to do it, but you know, it's certainly something. It's worth watching. Maybe before that, you know, the Sasha says you can send it or not. Sure. You know, that way would, you know, yeah, that would be good. And then the last thing on here and I'll accompany that with this. I'm going to step aside and take some time off the committee. It's been about five years. I let the committee know while in advance so that everybody could sort of plan if you will. That's not going to take a lot of time, but, and it's been a very effective committee. We've had incredible people over my time on it, including Michelle and Nguyen who really inspired me a lot. I learned a lot from those guys and John Atkinson and Chris and Susan. It's a, there's a nice complex of age and male-female, I mean, it's not as good as you could ask for. I've been thoroughly attracting new people but they seem to be coming to us and I would tell you that ideally an odd number is good and more would be better. Seven would be ideal because just like with y'all, if you only get two or three and you have a six-person board, you don't have a quorum and you can't actually pass business and approve minutes and all that good stuff. So I would prefer to see it be a seven-person board and that way maybe four can show up. If three show up on a six-person board, you don't have a quorum and that's my, I know it seems silly but I've been sort of taking responsibility for all those little technical things, making agendas and passing minutes and having minutes and making sure people don't have meetings sidebar that are illegal and it's been good. People really take into it. So that's my hope going forward is that it'll just cruise on and there'll be more great people volunteers around that'll come in. How many people are on the board now? Six. We don't always get six. When you step down, there'll be five. And that's actually good in a way for the interim. We need to find perhaps two more people. We collect them. Yeah, as a term. The week. Actually, I have an idea about someone. Absolutely. I actually, there was a couple names that came up and I called them repeatedly and invited them each meeting for months and you know, you knock on that door three, four months in a row and they don't show. I'm really not a great recruiter. Honestly. Not funny, but yeah, there's someone I can make attention to. Yeah. We meet Monday. This Monday we'll be meeting outside. 5.30. I'm putting to that. To go to cover out here at the field. So that's the, what's the date on that? 27. A week from today. 27. And then the 25th we'll be here. Sometimes we take off and we ask December has not been a good month. A lot of years we just don't meet in the month of December. Sure. Just because it's Christmas week and it's all that stuff. We certainly want to thank you Steve for the questions but all the time you put in and the professionals and you're striving to, as you said, put across the teams and dot the i's as far as you're running a meeting and doing that. We appreciate that. It makes it all easier for us. But on your part we're going to do not hear any of your ideas. It's been a pleasure. It's been a lot of fun. We've done some great stuff. And I'm sure it'll keep going. There's a lot of good people in the town, a lot of interest in the in the fields and the trails and the courts. So that's it. You know some questions came up about some stone that might have been placed by the red committee. A big stone or something? Do you know, did that come from your work? Probably. There was a big pile left over from the trail, from the big push at the end of last, of this lower nature trail. I know that part of that was there was a pile for the longest time down at the end of the way. Is that what you mean? Yeah, well I think there was some place in addition that was washed out or washed down into the during the jumps. I was just looking at my phone. I had a picture of it. I think it probably would have opened up to big here, but we're just probably caring what the source was. It sounds like it was. I'd be happy to meet with anybody or I could also, I would probably bring in a combination of jump. But it's probably these guys in the future if you're putting them in make sure you use it heavier stuff or whatever happens to be. Was it from the drive on the way up to the courts right there to me? You know, I doubt a bit, but I really wasn't sure. Well, I'm happy to address it in any way that you guys see fit. Happy could I do it, bring in whoever and explain it. The reason I can't answer 100% is the work was sort of subbed by the company. It was a little bit after the fact and then there was some volunteers Kingsbury and others who said hey, we had a machine, we can help. Which is, you know, we're always in the client matter and we're trying to say yes. People are volunteering time and machine, but I do want to be respectful and manage the land as best as we can. Feel free to reach out anytime and I'll be happy to meet you and we can put our eyes to it. I'm always close by and I'm not going anywhere, you guys. So let's sit here. Great. Anything else for Steve? Would you like to retire a friend? I'll take one for the rub. And with thanks. Anybody? I think exactly. Sasha, are you retiring? I retired last Thursday. Congratulations. Well, thank you for your service. My goodness. That was a good time for me to retire. Good for you. Well deserved. Yeah, it's not a weird feeling, but you know what? Ready to move on to something balanced? I aspire in that. I like that. Thank you all for your time. Hey, thank you. Steve, nice to see you. I appreciate you coming. All right. So, we're over here. So moving on. I haven't seen any other people here who are public comments. And it doesn't look like we have anyone that's joined on the Zoom. So let's go ahead and move on. We have errors in emissions. Now this comes from NEMRIC or the New England municipal resource center. I just heard that on the radio the other day. I was always wondering what NEMRICs did. Well, there it is. And so we had errors in emissions and what these are obviously different errors that have come through on the grant list that NEMRIC picked up on. Does everyone want to take a look at them? Or shall I just I'll state the first one. We have Sandy Ray and it's just a change of ownership. That's the only thing that we need to change there. Then we have Kuzinski family change for $605,200 $57,500 and the reason is they sold off $68.2 acres to Ludwick. The next change is a change to Ludwick for that $68,000 or a purchase of the $68,000 for $176,000. So it was actually an increase there. The next one we have is H&H Real Estate and because it's zero now Furnisters thought the remaining what H&H had Where was that? It was right next to the H&H because they had and part of that land is very steep and not buildable so it changed the grade in the grading system that they do for it's non-buildable stuff so Vermisters thought that section and it added $90,000 to the next So that changed H&H Real Estate in the 442 Furnisters went from $273 to $103 because of the extra that they got that's non-buildable The next area where I mentioned was to the best partners $6366 ownership change there no change as far as value The next we have ownership change again exactly goes here no value change as the life of state ownership changed The next change we have is again it's just an ownership it's a life of state deed Paul and Matthew Nato they just remained ours Green Mountain Power the change it was set at $2,359,000 and it changed to $2,192,500,000 it's a change difference of $166,500 the reason the total utility assessment at the CIA was not applied correctly there's some attachment here we have a second Green Mountain Power that was changed from $7,369,400 to $6,890,500 change of $478,900 and again the total utility assessment was not applied The next change we have was patterned Ronald and Sandra and it's just again a deed change it was an executor's deed from the Zilli so those are the changes there's one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight nine, ten, eleven, twelve so there's twelve that they have picked up on these are all things that probably should have someone picked up by the Listers of illustrious issues that we experienced that's why it dealt to there are motions to approve these changes I make a motion to approve those changes is there a second there's one question John how does what kind of side effect the grant was it has an effect on the right that reduces it or increase it we've already set the tax rate now what happens it goes up and down whatever happens with each one of those and she said once you guys approve them the notices go out and those people have 14 days to breathe those but I'm saying those if the grant list is if the grant list is last then our tax rate is odd and we've got this in the hole there but when we make it up to next year it will come through we'll come through the next year it's probably coming and usually there are not the omissions that we've seen here well as usual this has happened now twice with Greenland College right you know this is this is three quarters of a million dollars so that's where the money is so there will be there could be a bit of a next year where things will be off if you will because we've got to make that up but that's why it's really important that we have the listors that can do the job and that's why I think with our switching to network it's really the way to go we won't see this again especially with Greenland Power and Don I think you just had another board but we've had this happen before and actually Greenland paid the bill they didn't even realize there was a problem that's how big they are and in fact we're still holding that if you look in the your book your book we still have that I mean did they when they get the notice did they object to do they have a process where they object to that they should have they did not the last time they did they didn't last time they did this time so which is again a surprise to me too but that's not well you know they just figure that's the way it is exactly they're getting it and I think it's and we're continuing to make mistakes so any other questions all in favor go right I'm going to tell you Sam heard the pillow she came here and she spent the whole day and she just was back and forth looking at surveys she used a memory she came down she came down and spent one whole day and she plans on doing that and what was her name again Cassandra DeTillio good so we've got there so we'll say just some you know all right all right all right so we have reports communications communications thank you announcements and different documents so Sasha start with the reports I just need Sharon give me a reminder about the France stuff for you guys so you don't forget your business will do that okay I talked to Stefan this week he said the Capital Fire Mutual Aid is going to be having an upcoming meeting and they're going to ask the fire chief and a select board member to attend so something to think about when is that? they don't have it set yet but he was told about it so he wanted to just food for thought for you guys just think about that if anyone won't it's the fire department and it's the fire chief and one select board member they're having a big meeting the state Capital Fire Mutual Aid it's the discussion that would be good to make sure someone is there is it a day on thing? I think it's going to be like a night meeting did he tell you he has his own meeting or well he picked up the farm dogs again Sunday about a month he's also reached out to BLCT so that BLCT to get help on the ordinance so he has actually reached out and done that good planning commission they could see Clark Newton sent a letter of interest Clark Newton Clark Newton Clark Newton Clark Newton he's not a bad guy he's not a bad guy he's not a bad guy some of the planning commission is that what it was have we had any other increase into planning commission? we have I know we often have people in if for these type of positions but I know you served with Clark I mean well he served with me on the board I think he's probably appointed to the planning commission yeah absolutely so I moved to appoint Clark to the planning commission I second that thank you for the questions that's great yeah he'll be good for that there's a DRB hearing before the town on September 30th Chairman said that one of the select board members would probably want to be here for the storm water what day do we do that? 30th Tuesday no 27th it's only that I can't make it it's poker night it's the meeting's here yes they're doing zoom in here it's about the the retention the bio retention the storm yeah for the parking lot I mean John Pokemon John he's not here I haven't been able to reach though but what I'm really looking for I will get together with Joe and get a budget number I'll be doing it with you anyways okay before budget coming out I'll have it all straight out probably going to have another one either tomorrow or Wednesday so that we can get all the checks out one after us could you possibly be around make sure you text me when you send an email because yeah there's a lot of email okay it's easy for me to sheet down sounds like the brand is very good the last thing was AT&T the road cruise phone or Martin's phone has been having some odd late fee charges the guy told Charlie today after she'd been on hold and transferred like five times that the package we have is going up so we're wondering if just a brainstorm if we could pay the phone off and Stefan has a special account to AT&T for the car department which would save a lot of money and he had told us that he could get Martin's phone one because he's kind of an essential order is that something that you guys yeah I'm looking into that yes very well you have I don't have any No, Don do you have anything for first communications no I don't really have anything well just a couple of things that I had we'd have a call from a Susan Smith and she lives up on the common road and can serve with water coming into her property so I need to give you the address I have in the car check it Martin how about that I don't know she's a little bit about it I don't think there's really anything we can do but I don't know if there was anything changed she thought there was all of a sudden there was a change in this water coming under her property so I don't think there was any ditching out that way but the water events that we have nowadays it really all of a sudden it just goes any other way so I think as far as speaking with anyone outside such as this have a few things for later hours but we have announcements again we have more fests coming up this weekend so I hope everyone can make it's a party call they'll be there with corn and french fries they're making and Eric and this more town store don't need it we'll be all sorts of activities so we look forward to everyone getting there and also isn't this Cali's weekend isn't she doing a challenge down there itself a fitness channel so if you don't come to more fests go and support Cali down there a fitness channel down there I wonder can we send a note out to I guess most of the committees they go to committee chairs or something to remind all their committee members about more fests or something I think that something like that there's a lot of different committees in town maybe someone just might know about makes sense so we're looking forward to that and there's fireworks and vans all sorts of things it looks like the weather's going to be okay yeah we know like Steve's people are doing some vans and they have they already have something started it's kind of a dragon egg hunt dragon egg hunt that he's seen dragon eggs out here all right so let's go ahead there's three of us here so we can go ahead and improve the sliver of minutes from the 7th September 7th can I make a motion to improve the minutes September 7th right all right thank you nice folks I'm sorry I wasn't here for that meeting I haven't done the minutes it's a good meeting we had a conversation with the sergeants and such the folks that came in on the ATV it sounded like Cali had done a good job there what you did me too let's go ahead and move on to old business service officers we filled one tonight we had the service officer we decided that we needed that service officer was that a question that was posed to us I think it used to be a question that's posed to you guys it is not necessary anymore so if you guys wanted to just do away with it you can what do they do anyways they assist people that need assistance helping them fill out forms that they need help with that type of thing that's our next habit isn't that similar to the group that Cheryl and you and you wanted us to help right well keep it on there let me talk to you guys maybe we can decide that one of you guys I'm going to be the service officer out of that group so that there is an official who knows sometimes there are opportunities and we type it like that it's easier for people to reach out to you guys CV5 or CV5 thanks for proving the lawyer as far as taking a look at it as Ron could he did get back with a CV he said he didn't see anything wrong with the NRA but I want you to continue with what you have in the end make sure you look at the guidance on how to spend this money or I should say the guides or the guardrails of this money and I know I think Ray there was a comment you had somewhere who questioned the amount we were looking at CV5 our next meeting we'll talk about that what are they it'll be the next meeting they originally wanted to be here he hadn't gotten that lawyer stuff yet I didn't want to go ahead with that so you almost we will just refresh our on the recovery act on the recovery act that way if you come up with ideas or someone else comes up with an idea we kind of know you can't do that so we're not wasting the time time by that time maybe some other things that we have that will fit under that that we're looking at some stuff at the time of all right so there's lots of different things that and when you look at that read it more there's ways to look around things or finesse that's not a word I don't like wiggly it's a little tough finesse we can do that and with CP5 think of questions you might want to try to make sure you get those answers we should look into talk to waste field telecom because they're CP5 where it is but knowing waste field telecom served our town for a long time and it's got a lot here so I want to make sure that they're on board too so before we really make any use of it thought it might be good to know your feeling for maybe everyone else here about maybe getting those guys to come someone from waste field telecom because you didn't mention about using trying to work with them and so I want to make sure there's a good relationship there you know one thing in the back of my mind is if I'm going to get 75,000 or 100,000 where it is to CP5, why wouldn't I do it to waste field telecom I thought that exactly there are guys on the road that have done everything so I'm not saying but that's just a question I have why wouldn't I do that I'm expecting CP5 there's a good softball question it's not softball question but it heads up for those are the type of things they developed lines of business in a whole different realm to get to where they are now you know there was the telephone telephone service cable internet this is helped me understand that CP5 was trying to come along and get to areas that have no service provided be it waste field telecom or I don't know so what my thought is why wouldn't waste field telecom comes to here then why wouldn't they come to here and we'll pay for that the only way to help them help them build out not just they don't have any interest in doing that and yet here we can help we can participate in the funding there you go and I don't know but I did reach out and I spoke to Roger we talked real quick I just want to say they don't have any interest in doing that they never really made me consider it you know who else they made again maybe because the way they've always conducted business has not been that way they've always scratched out themselves and figured it out some of this is in the 229 area it's not in waste field telecom's area but what makes it their area is you know what I mean who's your full provider for the phone service it's an affinity contact contact it's not a value per say number it's a different provider so I wonder if they feel like they can't go into that zone they're being mean to us I don't know um yeah so I just think it's more questions of things that would come up with like that just so we've done I think it's very important that we get fired to everyone and I just want to make sure that we do it the best way you know and whether it's the CD5 or these guys are you know I don't think they've heard us to reach out and just find out what kind of does Comcast is that the other person or is that the other group that serves on this? Comcast well I know they walk down to the ground on the road I don't know how far do they go down over the road do you want to come back? there used to be a fair point but what is it now? whatever that I don't want to be interested to know if they have any other planes to operate on you know that's something you can take on you know it's going to be it's a solid communication it's solid I know they put cable down the road as well I have no idea what their plans are but I think some people on the road have wanted them and not been that happy and that's what my concern is that once you have service the game doesn't end there you know there's a huge range you know there's a lot of maintenance a lot of you know people systems break down you've got to have somebody they can talk and that's what's good I think about which is their experience and on the other side I think they were a truck was talking about that harping with Washington Electric is that correct? well I heard him say he was going to try to work with Whitefield Telecom I heard him say he was watching Electric as well with one of what they were in so I'd be interested to look and learn about that agreement as well because if they're having an agreement with that and Washington Electric putting in all the infrastructure for their agreement and there's we're just supplementing Washington Electric I don't want to do that either so I think that's important that we take a look at those agreements to make sure that we're all that money goes if we do decide to go that group ATO and you guys working on that, little trails Cheryl I know has been trying to work with Shem's and yeah Tarrant and Shem's on the little trails and World Memorials ready to get that working I don't see him here but I want to cover his our grant stuff with the found word I was going to bring it out I didn't know if I should wait for him to do business No business, you can go ahead and talk about that Well no, so I got Brad, Gabe sent the letter to my assistant Sasha and Stefan I got the stuff from the electrician and I sent that off to Brad this morning he totally feels that we can use the efficiency of our grant 4,000 we can use for the lighting so we're good on that and of course I got a way message and he will be back in this office I think Wednesday Thursday so he'll respond to his emails but he's also going to be in Morfest Oh nice so you'll get a chance to say hello they're going to have a little thing there I guess Perfect so the bid is coming up unless the electrical car can not be on the condensation so that's something we're going to have to look at separately but I forget what the bid was for for the electrical car 8,000 which we think we're going to use 4,000 so we have to pursue the oh we really should stay on top of that because it's only going to get worse so I will try to think of some other contractors to reach out to them more time I will reach out to them because if they are the builders then maybe they can be more efficient thank you guys gentlemen another quote I see here that we timeline things that we're working on to be well I would say only one old business item is on the telephone regardless we're going to have to think to fit regardless of all the stuff one thing that I really think we should start to look into and reach out is finding an engineer and doing a proper sort of study on the water mitigation and the parking lot and such because no matter what happens there's been water events this summer Mike has been down there cleaning out that little drain by the door 3 or 4 times already it's not working so a firm that will come in here and then we can start to deal with moisture in the basement some mold or not mold from the air you know we need to what's the problem is there that's a the lift and the this and that and all the other stuff that's coming we've got to keep our building giving ideas on who will be a good person to look at that when you're trying to figure it out would it still be an engineering part of it forward there's some locally around here I wonder if stone environmental could do that today they could do it but I don't think the wolf is another local one there's a few local ones around here why why don't we take a look at our budgets what we have for the money maybe some sort of IRFP put that out there but I don't know when actually we should probably go ahead and do an RFP for that it's nothing that anyone's going to jump on and do with this fall anyways so if we get something out and we're immune to something we could work with Sasha on yeah the basement guy did meet with a number waiting for a PDF with his findings he said if the elevator stays where it is they could put a grate in there like when you're going towards the elevator and that would eliminate that issue right there in that corner look that's a problem we're having now without an EMP the grates are getting full she's saying inside inside like in the basement guy you go around the corner to go towards the elevator there's a whole section in the floor he said that should have a grate in it so that that is one problem that they could fix but he thinks that a really big industrial deep humidifier would work a lot of that stuff out but I haven't got prices or anything from him back yet alright yeah when he gets out of that corner that will interest him to see that we can still work on more prices just to figure that out and you're probably right but tonight that gets out and then prices and then they look at it we could even put it in the budget that's what I'm thinking but let's get it let's get it involved because it's been a couple of years and a great building that could be very useful the issue is not going to be um so that was like okay yeah so as far as our old business things things such that we have to address by the end of this year is anything else that we can talk about this I don't think there's anything else that we can have closer to the Robert Turner thing okay the road maintenance system the trailer endorsements that hasn't been talked about so that's they haven't I'm sorry the trailer endorsements on there and driver's license to pull the trailer that we have and you know it's actually been a couple of years now we've been promised that so we need to find out what the story is there and then figure out how best to get that done to make sure it's done in five months alright new business I'm sorry one more I just saw my notes so it's great that we have a lot of so I was just wondering should we try to publicize it yeah put something in front porch form or the valley report or something it's great that we have this one yeah I think on the front porch form probably need to I was going to talk to Sasha about this one thing there is a six block I don't know what I'm trying to call it there up here in the title we can work so I'll get it but make sure we state the board's meeting live at 79 school street however if you're more comfortable how would you want to work that you can join us via zoom and in the address yeah I called Sasha this morning cause I was confused so but I was just thinking it would be good to just get it out to many people who are a little notice on the front porch form no I think that's a good idea we'll maybe a week before its meeting we can do that and then we'll be more in the meeting so right now if somebody were to call and come up on the screen if they had a camera and we could talk and they could see you and as you talk as I called you could like some stage and I'd be great if someone's in the audience or you know part of the area but we'll go to them as well pretty sweet it is nice we split three ways right there yeah no no alright so for new business I'll start off with there's an opportunity for a grant for a scoping study which I thought was Cheryl and the one who came up with it or approached me with it for a sidewalk on the other side of town and so before you can get a grant to do the sidewalk on those grants they ask for scoping studies so this is a grant for the scoping study that we could do on Route 2 Fairgrounds Road the development that's over there seems a fairly straightforward grant so I just want to make sure you guys are aware of that and Joyce Manchester sent that letter because she got some positive feedback you know from the people at the state who felt that that was very doable as far as the right away the amount of space being able to do it but you're right you have to do it yeah it has to be I think we can get that and then obviously the next thing down the road will be a grant hopefully for more sidewalks for that area which I think would be very good for something that you could really show the need for the other grant that Sherilyn asked if we wanted to reply for was a grant for the parking lot and it was a block grant and there was a match on it but and then she got that from Pam and D'Andrea but I thought we could that the parking lot or not the parking lot the project here the drainage and everything I thought that that project was big tools though that was taken care of that's my understanding the drainage part the design was what she said the design part was all taken care of but I thought we had funding for the whole construction to change out here they couldn't do that as far as she said today do you feel timely because she asked me that and I said no I mean that does not sound right we were hit to your point remember when you went to Ray Nago when we were talking to him we were like well that's some good news that whole project was taken care of the drainage part I mean I know I wasn't hearing that yeah John John John maybe we know some more about that as well they might I know what I heard we had funding for the whole project not just the design part yeah we had a call camera where it was that all come from I think I think Cheryl Lynn had told us I think maybe it was a call maybe it was a call I thought I was right here was it a Zoom meeting? we should be in the back it can obviously be earlier this year or something like that I'm just very sure that's what we've heard mm-hmm there may have been this communication but we need to figure that out before we can start with the drainage yes I mean it doesn't cover the reconstruction maybe that's the grant that she's talking about it was great it was I don't think so I think she so we'll have to do some digging and even talk to Ray I didn't know if we said to Ray I heard clearly talking to him about it today we have some good news because of what happened here they were doing something else for us so we'll go ahead though and do the scoping we did have that walkthrough we had that walkthrough early this year we went out I was in the year we walked up around the buildings this was back in April and I thought at that time it was in the design phase but I thought it was really clear that we were funding for the whole entire project do you remember what was there John Beagle John Beagle Andre the engineer was there John and I I think maybe Martin was there too I'm pretty sure the guy was that a guy from the state there was another person there from the state Chris no it wasn't Chris it was I don't remember who the other person was maybe they took some meaning yeah but I guess I think when we were told I didn't hear a second hand who was I heard because I don't talk about it because of Ray Davils he was not present at the meeting we were told that because I told him if he was at this walk around alright so let's move forward any other new business we have anything else here the ones to sign so let's go ahead and do this and then I do or we need to go into executive session for an employee or yes and I will go into that so let's get so I will move that we go into executive session for it's actually 1B it's later in our relations of employees or actually 4A well let's do the 1A or 1B pardon it goes into different ones it's a play thing where this goes Ray seconds that and any questions if no other questions on paper and it will just be the board so
