Item number six is Resolution Number 652223962022, a Resolution Authorizing Application for the NAMI Wisconsin CIT and CIP Expansion Grant. So NAMI is a state organization that supports CIT and mental health awareness, particularly through police agencies and other service providers throughout the state. They have a grant program available for to fund a majority of the expenses for a CIT that's Crisis Intervention Team Training program that we're embarking on. We've been providing this training for the last eight years and we're scheduled to have another cycle of it starting in October. So the grant funding is requested to supplant the cost of the training program. And I have any questions? Questions, just comment that this is a great thing. I think anything we can do to help our officers with training for mental health issues. Because there's such a fort out in the community that the cheapest set in the past, that's a majority of calls are mental health issues. So we've made a very aggressive effort to have all of our officers trained in CIT and ICAP principles. So what percentage of the department participate in this? In this one session? Yeah. So our goal is 100% participation. In this one session, we'll have 14 of our officers and I believe seven from neighboring jurisdictions. Any other comments, questions? I make a motion to authorize. Second. I'll make a motion and a second on the floor. So all those who are in favor, please signify by stating aye. Aye. Opposed? Chair votes aye. That resolution is approved. Item number seven is resolution number 59, 22, 23, 9, 6, 22. A resolution authorizing the appropriate city officials to enter into a contract with Metals Treatment Technologies LLC, MT2 for lead remediation from the outdoor police shooting range located at the wastewater treatment facility. So for your information, the range was built. We're not exactly sure when it was built. We believe it was built in the late 50s or early 60s and the lead has never been remedied out of the firm. We began looking at this several years ago when the EAP came out with a guideline for managing outdoor ranges. And so removal of the existing lead is one of the first basic steps that we can take to cleaning the soil in the dirt and impact area. We were approved through the capital budget to go ahead with the remediation. The purchasing agent sent out bids and this company, MT2 is one of the companies that we identified that is a national company that specializes in range remediation. And so their bid was the lowest bid and we believe that they can adequately accomplish the remediation that we're looking for. Any other comments, questions? Mike, you just had me come in with a wand and go over the area and just dig this stuff up. Yeah, it's not quite that simple, but it's not much more than that. It's just much larger equipment. So they come in and the first thing they do is control any outflows. Once they start digging, they have to make sure that they don't uncover things that then leach out into the surrounding areas. Then they'll take back holes and they'll dig at a minimum of two feet of dirt off the face of the range. They'll bring in a separating machine and put it all into a separator and take out all the lead. The dirt will go back onto the range where obviously gonna have to order additional dirt to rebuild the face of the range. Also within the project, we've managed for landscaping. After they're done, the range will be dirt and we have to plant vegetation back on it to keep it from running off. And then somebody from the EPA or whoever comes back and makes sure that we've had this done? No, we're not managed by the EPA. We haven't been inspected or incurred any sanctions. We're trying to stay in front of any type of punitive remediation. We're taking it on ourselves to stay in front of any leaching that might occur. I don't know if I'm imagining there's quite a significant amount of lead if it's been since the late 50s. I'm curious to hear what these... So we have several companies come in and this company does it a little bit differently than the other ones. They'll put a value on the lead that comes out of the range and then buy it from us at half of what its reclaimed value is. Sure. And then they get the other half. But it's hard for them to estimate how much lead is actually in there. It could pay for half the project and it might just be a thousand or $2,000. It's really hard to say because lead will break down. And that's the leaching process. Okay, that's a problem. They said typically what they see is in the center of the range where everybody shoots, there's one great big ball of lead and then it disperses on down the ranges moving to areas that don't get fired on as much. Yeah, it's not a situation where we have to have it all dug up. The layer of rubber or something so that can't go down any farther? No, very few of the outdoor ranges have anything like that. The only thing that we're considering for the future is a drainage tile system in front of the range. So as water runs down the base of the range, it goes into the tile system and then we'll get directed into a sewer rather than the groundwater. But right now we don't have, we haven't been able to get, find any evidence that there's any lead, we could get all. So. That's great. Do we have any other questions? I would like to entertain a motion to approve. Motion to approve. I get a motion to ask another question. So for all those who are in favor of approving this resolution, please signify by stating aye. Aye. Those. Chair votes aye. That resolution is approved. Item number eight is resolution number 58239962022. A resolution authorizing the purchasing agent to issue a purchase order for the purchase of four police squads or utility vehicles and one large capacity van for the Chevrolet and police department. So this is the annual purchase of squad cars. We have a certain number of squad cars that we purchase through the capital plan every year. This year we're looking at four of the patrol cars, those are the sport utilities. And then we have a 20 year old Dodge Ram van that we've been using for a paddy wagon for 20 years that we're replacing with the Ford E350 van. All of these have been approved through the capital budget. We're approving them now for purchase because we can place the orders now to be, so they won't be delivered until next year. But the sooner we get the orders in, the sooner in 2023 we will be able to actually purchase them. You have an answer question. And you do this through the state where they do the market study or whatever and get us the best pricing we possibly can. Yeah, well, we buy them on the state contract. Yeah. Any other questions, comments? I'm looking for a motion to approve. Motion to approve. Motion on the floor. Second. Okay, we have a motion and a second. So for all of those who are in favor of approving this resolution, please take a vote by stating aye. Aye. Opposed? Chair votes aye. That resolution is approved. Item number nine is RO number 61229622 by city clerk submitting various license applications. Recommending all the applications on the RO be granted. So I have to go back to your grant. They've got staff recommendations. Motion to grant from staff recommendations. Second. Okay, so we have a motion and a second on the floor. All those who are in favor of approval be signified by stating aye. Aye. Opposed? Chair votes aye. That RO is approved. Item number 10 is our next meeting date. Our next meeting date will be September 28, 2022. We're looking for a motion to adjourn. Motion to adjourn. Second? Second. All those in favor of adjourn, please signify by stating aye. Aye. Opposed? Chair votes aye. We are adjourned. Thank you. Thank you.
