WEBVTT

00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:01.000
I think so, yeah.

00:00:01.000 --> 00:00:07.440
Yeah, after public safety rates.

00:00:07.440 --> 00:00:18.260
I'd like to call a meeting to order, it's Thursday, May 14th, 5 o'clock, and this is the meeting

00:00:18.260 --> 00:00:19.620
of the Public Works Committee.

00:00:22.360 --> 00:00:27.140
I thank Mr. Newton for fish hitting me last month in my absence.

00:00:27.980 --> 00:00:28.980
Thank you, sir.

00:00:30.000 --> 00:00:59.600
With that, I'd like to call the meeting to order, and item 2.0 is the approval of the agenda. Is there a motion to approve the agenda? Sure. Moved by Mr. Jogerst. I'll make a second. Second by Mrs. Williams. Any questions or discussions on the agenda? Seeing none, all those in favor say aye. Aye. The agenda is approved. Item 3.0, the review and approval of the meeting minutes from last month, April 9th, 9th, 26th. Move approved. I will move the motion to approve.

00:01:00.000 --> 00:01:06.600
A second by Mr. Newton. Any discussion? Seeing none, all those in favor say aye.

00:01:06.840 --> 00:01:07.120
Aye.

00:01:07.960 --> 00:01:21.640
Motion is approved. 4.0, the approval of the claims a white month this month. 113,532.52 cents. This is a pleasure that made.

00:01:23.060 --> 00:01:23.900
It was approved.

00:01:23.900 --> 00:01:29.320
have a motion to approve by Mr. Newton and a second by Mr. Moderow. Any discussion or questions

00:01:29.320 --> 00:01:40.080
on the clients? I have a question. Yes. On page 20 of that, but you can answer it. Sir Barks the

00:01:40.080 --> 00:01:46.080
lot, it was 980? Yeah, that's the rent of the building. I thought, I didn't think it was that

00:01:46.080 --> 00:01:52.840
high. Yeah, it's the same. It's always been 980? Okay. Sorry, I thought it was less than that.

00:01:53.900 --> 00:01:54.900
Correct.

00:01:54.900 --> 00:01:55.900
Correct question.

00:01:55.900 --> 00:01:56.900
No.

00:01:56.900 --> 00:01:57.900
Any others?

00:01:57.900 --> 00:01:58.900
Seeing none.

00:01:58.900 --> 00:02:01.900
All those in favor of approving the claims?

00:02:01.900 --> 00:02:02.900
Aye.

00:02:02.900 --> 00:02:04.900
Motion has been approved.

00:02:04.900 --> 00:02:06.900
Public comments?

00:02:06.900 --> 00:02:07.900
5.0.

00:02:07.900 --> 00:02:12.900
I don't see anybody here from the public this evening, so we'll move right into the department

00:02:12.900 --> 00:02:14.900
reports from animal controls.

00:02:14.900 --> 00:02:15.900
Okay.

00:02:15.900 --> 00:02:22.900
For the month of April, we took in 20 cats, three were surrenders, 14 were city strays,

00:02:22.900 --> 00:02:31.200
strays, two were county strays, and one was a bite order that was not curried on rabies, so had to be quarantined at our facility.

00:02:32.580 --> 00:02:43.120
Eleven were transferred to rescues, one was adopted, these are still available for adoption, and we had one, like, one-week-old kitten that passed away.

00:02:43.120 --> 00:02:55.220
Okay. For dog intakes, we had 15 total, five surrenders, seven county strays, one city, and two that were county strays, but then later on were signed over.

00:02:56.280 --> 00:03:07.040
Two have been, or two are adoptable, seven were reclaimed, one was transferred to the city, two were put down due to behavior, and three were adopted.

00:03:07.040 --> 00:03:36.240
did. So two of the adopted ones were the two county strays that were signed over. We actually, the finder adopted one and the other friend adopted one. So it kind of worked out they were with us very short time. I did the current inventory a little different. We currently have nine adoptable cats, 15 on hold. That includes anything under eight weeks old or mom and kittens. We have one boarding.

00:03:37.040 --> 00:03:44.480
That cat is, her owner is going through some domestic issues and we're just babysitting the cat until she can get on her feet.

00:03:45.080 --> 00:03:51.640
So we have 25 cats currently. Dogs, we have 13 adoptable, two that are on hold.

00:03:52.480 --> 00:04:00.460
I believe those two are ones that one had surgery and the other one we're working with a rescue currently.

00:04:00.460 --> 00:04:30.300
a one-up foster. So we have 16 dogs right now, which is down from last month a lot. So we did good. We put some animals out and got a lot adopted and stuff. For Jessica Jones, that case went in. So basically, this two years that we've been fighting, she now claimed that the Great Dane, which is the main one we were taking out of the fort, was not

00:04:30.300 --> 00:05:02.470
her dog. Proof? We don't really have proof. We could go in front of the bench, you know, the judge and hope that we win, but it was easier for her. We dismissed that case and she signed the other dog over. Since the great dame was with us for two years, he's technically straight hold time up. He's ours. And then the one that she claimed is hers, which we didn't have neglect for, she signed that one over. So we got custody of bulldogs at the end.

00:05:02.830 --> 00:05:30.430
Not the outcome I wanted, but she probably wouldn't pay her bill anyway. So, eh. Andrew Kreiss has got a bench trial for his running at large tickets. And then Mary Manky, which is the cocker, she had a court and it basically was ones that they were just discussing the payment. She's been paying on time, so there was nothing done. She got it in her court date.

00:05:30.430 --> 00:05:57.350
Other information, kitten season is here. We took 17 kittens in on 5-5, which over half have been transferred out to other shelters. I had two dogs that were running at large that were from the same owner who have been running at large multiple times. His bill was $450 to us. The one has ran

00:05:57.350 --> 00:06:06.470
five or six times. The other one was up to three. So his bill, we didn't go that far on our pricing. So

00:06:06.470 --> 00:06:14.630
we'll have to maybe discuss more on that. Starting to move equipment, office equipment to

00:06:14.630 --> 00:06:22.950
Meadows Drive. And Nate is working on getting internet and phone hookup there. Ending funds

00:06:22.950 --> 00:06:31.310
are up. We had that large donation check come in. So that brought it up quite a bit. I also had

00:06:31.310 --> 00:06:40.190
a check from the Belgian Tavern Rescue. They took a dog from us that went to the college and got fully

00:06:40.190 --> 00:06:47.510
vetted there and they donated $250 to us. So that went in just the general donations that didn't go to

00:06:47.510 --> 00:07:05.810
Meadow Dry, but yeah, so we had that, and then a lady that does the paint classes, she did one at Lena Brewery, and she donated money from that, whatever she made from that, too, and she said she'd like to do more, so maybe in the new building, we might do stuff like that, too.

00:07:05.810 --> 00:07:09.120
So, that's it for that.

00:07:09.960 --> 00:07:27.800
So, the revenue, we're still down a little bit on registrations and pickups, but everything else is not in the red.

00:07:31.300 --> 00:07:32.740
We're still ahead.

00:07:32.980 --> 00:07:39.080
I know we're still over what we're supposed to be, so we're okay there.

00:07:40.380 --> 00:08:10.360
I did pay Elbers. I probably should have turned it into the insurance company, but I didn't know how long that was going to take. So that's one of my claims. I didn't want the local person not to get paid. But I did submit the fire bill came in and that went to the insurance company. He is we mailed. I mailed the title to him signed by Georgia. So then he will get that and then the van will be

00:08:10.360 --> 00:08:26.620
We removed, we will get a check of a little under $3,000. It might be a little less because of the other bill. And he'll call and have the tow, whatever company come get it, and then he'll take it as selfish art.

00:08:27.000 --> 00:08:30.160
I have a question about that, Greg. Who gets you some time to tow?

00:08:30.880 --> 00:08:35.840
The insurance, the person we're working with, the insurance, James.

00:08:35.840 --> 00:08:37.160
He's where we got paid.

00:08:37.160 --> 00:08:41.940
I'm just doing with the email and Georgia and I discussed

00:08:41.940 --> 00:08:46.220
the email from the insurance company said seven times before you get paid

00:08:46.220 --> 00:08:50.920
yes okay you want me to I thought you were on your email I was not

00:08:50.920 --> 00:08:58.880
how much was the claim you paid to Alvers uh the claim that Alvers was 171.80

00:08:58.880 --> 00:09:04.460
thank you yeah and I like I said I wasn't even thinking I just got the bill and

00:09:04.460 --> 00:09:05.580
and it did.

00:09:06.380 --> 00:09:08.380
Next time we need to wait for the insurance check.

00:09:11.500 --> 00:09:14.860
I'll send you that email from James.

00:09:16.580 --> 00:09:22.920
Otherwise, okay, I'm going to be really sort of stupid here.

00:09:23.200 --> 00:09:26.760
You've got ending fund $42,000 for $22,65.

00:09:27.420 --> 00:09:29.960
Ending fund of what?

00:09:29.960 --> 00:09:34.560
So that's, I'm sorry, that's the monthly, that's where we ended it for the month.

00:09:34.560 --> 00:09:37.760
The total of what's in the bank right now?

00:09:38.960 --> 00:09:40.260
In the checking account?

00:09:40.400 --> 00:09:40.700
Yes.

00:09:41.360 --> 00:09:44.580
This is what you have in the checking account for animal control?

00:09:44.740 --> 00:09:45.020
Yes.

00:09:45.860 --> 00:09:48.900
As of, I think it was a few days into May.

00:09:49.160 --> 00:09:49.420
Okay.

00:09:49.620 --> 00:09:49.940
Yes.

00:09:50.380 --> 00:09:51.220
That's from Adrian.

00:09:55.590 --> 00:09:57.010
Any other questions?

00:09:59.580 --> 00:10:00.020
What's there?

00:10:00.020 --> 00:10:11.360
There was a report that showed the running balance of the bank fund for fund 16. I don't see it in your list, but we weren't doing that.

00:10:11.600 --> 00:10:16.620
Okay. So just having the ending, having each month?

00:10:17.380 --> 00:10:23.880
Just the fund balance from the treasury chief.

00:10:23.880 --> 00:10:25.280
Okay. Yeah, that's what that is.

00:10:25.280 --> 00:10:55.260
Yeah. Yep. Yep. That's what that is. I recognize that. Yeah. Okay. If I may, unless there's other questions about your van, your new van. Yes. Do you have a cage in there to separate the back or the cargo area? No. I do not. But I meant it would be nice, but I meant they're all in.

00:10:55.280 --> 00:11:25.260
cages. Yeah, but those 90% of the time. But do you have them strapped down? They're just usually just set into the van? Those cages can't move. They're so tight in there. They're not. They're not moving. Okay. Yeah. And it would be nice. Sometimes I get the large dogs that won't go in a cage. But that's very rare. Usually I can manhandle them enough to get them to coax them to go in a cage. But there's been times

00:11:25.260 --> 00:11:31.680
where I get the Great Pyrenees that absolutely will not, and then I end up tying them in the back,

00:11:32.280 --> 00:11:37.200
which they still can't get to me. They're tied, but, and there's ways that there's actually hooks

00:11:37.200 --> 00:11:43.700
in that van that I can tie them like I did in the old van. Not saying they can't chew through

00:11:43.700 --> 00:11:50.820
something, but. My concern is for your safety. Yeah. Driving the van and something happens. Yeah.

00:11:50.820 --> 00:11:54.900
God forbid, um, but there are no cages flying around.

00:11:55.120 --> 00:12:00.940
Oh, they're, yeah, the, the big dog cages, they're so tight in there, they can't move.

00:12:01.140 --> 00:12:02.100
What if you roll it?

00:12:02.980 --> 00:12:03.220
What?

00:12:03.340 --> 00:12:04.620
What if you roll the vans?

00:12:07.450 --> 00:12:08.250
They would come in.

00:12:08.250 --> 00:12:14.050
I still don't think they could come over the, that's not, put that in the atmosphere.

00:12:14.050 --> 00:12:19.390
I want us to be able to put that barrier up there, but, you know, suit the whole, I just

00:12:19.390 --> 00:12:45.870
Yeah. Or even I was thinking about getting maybe looking into like the SUV ones that have just the like three bars, not so much the full, but like up top, you know how they have it so the dog can't get in the front, maybe one of those. I don't think you need a full one. Because I don't know how that would work with the seats and brakes and what I was going to look into that to see if that would work.

00:12:45.870 --> 00:12:51.510
Oh, and the van's working out very nice

00:12:51.510 --> 00:12:54.970
Give us an update on your transition to your new home

00:12:54.970 --> 00:13:02.610
Well, as long as, once Nate gets the internet and the phone in there, we can work out of there

00:13:02.610 --> 00:13:10.770
I mean, the animals won't be there until the kennels come in, but hopefully I'm at open soon

00:13:10.770 --> 00:13:12.710
Security cameras

00:13:12.710 --> 00:13:37.170
Once we get the internet, I talked to Nate about doing the Blink ones and he said he'd probably go with Jansen for everything. It probably won't save us enough money in that way. They're all the same system and continuous instead of the Blink, which relies on internet and blah, blah, blah. If the internet goes out, then so, yeah.

00:13:37.170 --> 00:13:41.480
I have a question.

00:13:44.000 --> 00:13:50.920
Do we need to contact Wally to have the outdoor runs cleaned up and mowed or anything?

00:13:50.920 --> 00:13:51.240
Nope.

00:13:52.520 --> 00:13:59.460
I mow the play yard and the owners have somebody mow the big yards, which the play yard doesn't take long.

00:14:00.120 --> 00:14:01.440
And I do that on my own time.

00:14:01.780 --> 00:14:03.000
So, yeah.

00:14:03.260 --> 00:14:06.900
Nope, we're not responsible for that.

00:14:07.300 --> 00:14:10.360
Can you move the cats over?

00:14:11.680 --> 00:14:14.960
I could, but I kind of want to wait until the office is over there.

00:14:15.600 --> 00:14:16.260
Oh, right.

00:14:16.420 --> 00:14:16.680
Yeah.

00:14:16.860 --> 00:14:17.020
Yeah.

00:14:17.020 --> 00:14:17.640
I was just thinking.

00:14:17.640 --> 00:14:17.960
Yes.

00:14:18.120 --> 00:14:18.400
Yes.

00:14:18.660 --> 00:14:19.060
Yes.

00:14:19.220 --> 00:14:19.660
I was thinking.

00:14:19.660 --> 00:14:22.580
Once I have phone in, yeah, I'll move the cats over first.

00:14:22.700 --> 00:14:22.960
Okay.

00:14:23.100 --> 00:14:23.360
Yeah.

00:14:23.980 --> 00:14:24.200
Yeah.

00:14:28.880 --> 00:14:33.680
And your idea about the signs, probably not a bad idea.

00:14:33.820 --> 00:14:34.080
Okay.

00:14:34.320 --> 00:14:36.140
To put them maybe at both places.

00:14:36.360 --> 00:14:36.640
Yeah.

00:14:36.720 --> 00:14:38.300
The old place and the new place.

00:14:39.140 --> 00:14:39.320
Yeah.

00:14:39.320 --> 00:14:40.780
You know, if I'm not here.

00:14:41.060 --> 00:14:44.740
Well, and even at the, when the highway, if I leave.

00:14:45.000 --> 00:14:45.200
Yeah.

00:14:45.200 --> 00:14:46.660
I want to find me.

00:14:46.880 --> 00:14:47.020
Right.

00:14:47.280 --> 00:14:48.240
I usually do.

00:14:48.460 --> 00:14:53.240
If Beth or Nicole are going to be out, I usually put a sign that has my cell phone on it.

00:14:53.480 --> 00:14:53.880
Call me.

00:14:54.300 --> 00:14:56.460
If you have any questions, I'll help you.

00:14:57.120 --> 00:14:58.760
And if I'm right down the road.

00:14:59.540 --> 00:14:59.740
Yeah.

00:14:59.940 --> 00:15:04.400
Well, that's the thing is, is I think, and I honestly, I think during this transition and

00:15:04.400 --> 00:15:08.800
people get used to the new place, I think all you can do are the few people that came

00:15:08.800 --> 00:15:12.680
in for taste that are getting one year takes or even three year takes.

00:15:12.680 --> 00:15:13.740
I'm like, now we're moving.

00:15:13.740 --> 00:15:16.500
So here's where you're going to go next year

00:15:16.500 --> 00:15:17.360
Yeah

00:15:17.360 --> 00:15:22.960
Your donations have worked well

00:15:22.960 --> 00:15:26.980
Especially with the donation from Julie's

00:15:26.980 --> 00:15:31.840
You have other ideas moving into the summer?

00:15:31.840 --> 00:15:35.600
I think Auto, is it AutoSmart?

00:15:35.760 --> 00:15:40.020
It's out on 20, the visitor station

00:15:40.020 --> 00:15:42.660
I think he wants to do a fundraiser for us

00:15:42.660 --> 00:16:11.860
and then I had a bank that was thinking about doing a fundraiser for us too so and I'd like to go back to Lena Brewery it's in the I'd like to go back. Did you contact Julie Menengue? I haven't been able to yet but I'm that is on my radar. Would it be improper to stop by the house? If we think you have a phone number told? No.

00:16:12.660 --> 00:16:18.840
Oh, so that's our problem, so that's, yeah, there's no, yeah, because it was just a check

00:16:18.840 --> 00:16:24.920
with her name, and we kind of figured out the address, we think, so I, I don't know, send

00:16:24.920 --> 00:16:34.620
her a letter first, yeah, and see if it's, it's not a common name, so, I, I could, I, yeah,

00:16:35.000 --> 00:16:42.040
we need to make contact, yes, I, yeah, as opposed to if you may try to make, yeah, no, then she

00:16:42.040 --> 00:17:12.000
doesn't respond. Right. Okay. Yeah. Yeah. No, I would. You want to make sure she wants her gold-plated. Right. Right. Bench. Right. I'm a gold-plated. Whatever she wants. I'll get her. You want a bell that every animal would adopt? I ring the bell? She's very gracious. Yes. Absolutely. Let me know the internet provider. Are we putting the internet in or is that something?

00:17:12.000 --> 00:17:24.240
It would be, Arrow is what we have for, it would be whatever the county is, yeah, yeah, because

00:17:24.240 --> 00:17:26.560
that's one thing we have to provide is our internet.

00:17:28.560 --> 00:17:31.920
Any other questions?

00:17:33.080 --> 00:17:34.540
The department moves on to the highway.

00:17:36.580 --> 00:17:37.180
Bill?

00:17:38.180 --> 00:17:39.720
Let Scott go first, Scott.

00:17:39.720 --> 00:18:06.100
The past month, did place shoulder stone on Winnishik Road and River Road, cleaned up, downed trees on county roads from storms, and spent Friday evening of the tornado in Lena, we were there Friday night, Saturday, Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday, cleaning up trees up there.

00:18:06.100 --> 00:18:17.880
We probably hauled a couple hundred loads of trees out there, tanning loads, at least, after a while, it's hard to keep track

00:18:17.880 --> 00:18:30.900
Then we also had to fix some gravel washouts on shoulders after those storms, of course, patching, potholes, ditch cleaning

00:18:30.900 --> 00:18:37.040
We've done a lot of ditch cleaning on Goldmine Road and Kent Road and also some on Pearl City Road.

00:18:37.040 --> 00:18:39.900
We also replaced a driveway pipe on Pearl City Road.

00:18:40.660 --> 00:18:49.700
The gentleman wants to replace his driveway, so the pipe was starting to get bad, so we replaced that in preparation for him to do his driveway.

00:18:49.700 --> 00:19:00.960
Okay, let's see, tore out an A gutter on Orangeville Road in preparation for the Golden Place Recycling

00:19:00.960 --> 00:19:08.700
Project that's going to take place later this summer on that road. And then we repaired a section

00:19:08.700 --> 00:19:17.640
of Garville and Winslow Road from an accident. No report on it, so I don't really know what

00:19:17.640 --> 00:19:21.620
happened or if it'll ever get reported, but we fixed it.

00:19:21.920 --> 00:19:24.440
So that's good, Jim.

00:19:26.920 --> 00:19:28.100
Questions for Scott?

00:19:31.200 --> 00:19:36.420
Have you received an update on your truck, your one that we have on order?

00:19:37.280 --> 00:19:41.160
Yeah, I actually talked to him today, November.

00:19:42.500 --> 00:19:48.060
The unfortunate thing is I talked to the guy at Monroe, which we haven't.

00:19:48.060 --> 00:19:50.380
I'm working on the specs for that right now.

00:19:50.380 --> 00:19:53.460
I'm getting that done.

00:19:57.550 --> 00:20:12.510
He's getting, at one point they were 400 days out Monroe Monroe. If you drove up to Monroe and looked at the lot behind the Monroe truck, you would know why. There's trucks plastering the whole side of it.

00:20:12.510 --> 00:20:17.830
Is that once they get the truck? Or once we replace the order?

00:20:17.830 --> 00:20:26.710
Once we replace the order. So they're hoping to make some changes to shorten that time to

00:20:26.710 --> 00:20:37.570
who, he says, the salesman told me that administration up there wants to knock that down to 90 days.

00:20:38.050 --> 00:20:44.330
He said that's not, he didn't see anywhere where that's feasible at all to get that done.

00:20:45.010 --> 00:20:53.970
So, but he's thinking maybe six months if they get everything or places that are manufacturing for him to get stuff moved ahead.

00:20:53.970 --> 00:21:23.950
but yeah right now it's probably looking like if we we get the chassis towards the end of the year and it'll probably be by the end of hopefully by the winter of 27 if you get it and Bunnell's no better I thought I've talked to somebody down there and we got a snowball from them last year that took how long did that take that was a year I found

00:21:23.950 --> 00:21:25.950
I finally called them and said, where's this at?

00:21:25.950 --> 00:21:26.950
12 months or something like that.

00:21:26.950 --> 00:21:28.950
Yeah, just for standards to snow.

00:21:28.950 --> 00:21:33.950
So it's just crazy right now.

00:21:33.950 --> 00:21:36.950
When I first started, we would order a truck.

00:21:36.950 --> 00:21:39.950
We'd take bids on a truck in January.

00:21:39.950 --> 00:21:41.950
We'd turn around and do bids.

00:21:41.950 --> 00:21:45.950
When we knew what we were getting, do bids for the snow and ice equipment.

00:21:45.950 --> 00:21:50.950
After that, we would have the truck by December of that same year.

00:21:50.950 --> 00:21:52.950
It was that quick a turnaround.

00:21:52.950 --> 00:21:59.770
We'd have the chassis in 90 days, and then it was a quick turnaround, get it outfitted.

00:21:59.970 --> 00:22:02.210
Now we're at three years.

00:22:03.210 --> 00:22:06.170
Yeah, I had to mention the cost, that is probably.

00:22:07.630 --> 00:22:14.830
And I wanted to get this chassis ordered because the emissions goes up, so it'll have the old emissions on it.

00:22:14.830 --> 00:22:44.810
the new stuff is coming out the end of this year and into 27 that I I don't really want to deal with that let somebody else deal with the first year or two of that I think and we'll see how it goes so yeah that's the pretty much the scoop on that so but he said November ish bill I think the start of the bill date was

00:22:44.810 --> 00:22:48.570
in November, so I would guess we would get it in December.

00:22:50.310 --> 00:22:50.910
Yeah.

00:22:52.910 --> 00:22:54.670
Any other questions, sir, Scott?

00:22:56.070 --> 00:22:57.050
Thank you, sir.

00:22:58.010 --> 00:22:58.530
Bill?

00:22:59.350 --> 00:23:02.010
In your package, you've got the Harbor Department update.

00:23:02.590 --> 00:23:08.210
I've highlighted anything updated since the last meeting of our 2026 construction.

00:23:09.270 --> 00:23:13.530
Our CIR for Orangeville Road, it was that last month.

00:23:13.530 --> 00:23:43.530
the low bid came in 22% over the engineer's estimate so I talked to Scott and we decided to reject it we only had one bidder and the one bidder knew he was the only bidder in advance so I'm thinking yeah anyways we shortened the project revised a few things and we're going to resubmit it and we'll go to rebid on June 12th so hopefully we

00:23:43.530 --> 00:23:51.770
We've only gotten, well, in eight years, we've had two bidders, either Dunn or WK out of Wisconsin.

00:23:52.370 --> 00:23:54.890
They kind of alternate and get, that ends up being a little bidder.

00:23:55.250 --> 00:24:01.330
In that time frame, we've had two other contractors that bid on it, but they've never been successful.

00:24:02.190 --> 00:24:08.510
So WK called me before the lighting, told me that they had too much work in the books,

00:24:08.510 --> 00:24:11.490
so they couldn't, they couldn't bid on the project.

00:24:11.490 --> 00:24:17.230
So he's hoping when we re-bid it that maybe they'll get their paperwork problem taken care of.

00:24:17.230 --> 00:24:18.570
So we'll see what happens.

00:24:19.870 --> 00:24:25.010
I hope we get a good bid next month.

00:24:26.790 --> 00:24:33.070
Item D, West Point, those plans are, we've got that set for June 2nd landing.

00:24:34.010 --> 00:24:40.350
The other bridge is we started construction last week, and they've already driven file on that job.

00:24:40.350 --> 00:25:09.470
so it's going on pretty quick the next one we got another bridge in West Point that's on a June 2nd letting we had a material letting for our seal coat work Flint Hills was a little better for the bituminous work doc excavating a little bit of the ag work so their agreement is in your packet for later update that just happened on

00:25:10.350 --> 00:25:17.870
McCona Road intersection, item H, we got the review of the pre-final plan back from IDOT,

00:25:18.670 --> 00:25:28.430
Faragrand is going to get final plan complete by next week, and IDOT said they won't expedite the joint agreement on that project,

00:25:28.550 --> 00:25:35.350
so I'm optimistic we'll get that built yet this year, so a lot more optimistic than it was a month ago.

00:25:35.350 --> 00:26:05.330
that's it on the construction project in fact it also is the brick program I updated that to show where the current status of our project everything in green is worth that's been finished actually finished since I've been here in purple is the two projects that we've got under construction this year I've got two projects set to be left next year those are both Township brick

00:26:05.330 --> 00:26:17.110
program projects in yellow is work I've got coming up in 2028.

00:26:17.110 --> 00:26:27.490
We've got the Oneco is that is funded the project in Lauren Road District, which is a big job.

00:26:27.490 --> 00:26:30.850
They're working on the plan, but I do not have funding for that project yet.

00:26:30.850 --> 00:27:00.830
so we'll get the plan going along and there's supposed to be a notice of funding opportunity for bridge projects coming up later this summer so we'll apply we I've applied twice and we both think we weren't successful so we're going to try again so and then in blue I've got some repair projects on Farwell Bridge Road and the other ones on Bolton Road those are big projects so I don't have

00:27:00.830 --> 00:27:15.170
I don't have those funded yet, but that NOCLE that's coming out in later this summer, we'll apply all three of those projects with that special funding. So that should take us through.

00:27:18.490 --> 00:27:22.550
Tom, any questions on it?

00:27:22.670 --> 00:27:23.730
That's a long time.

00:27:24.890 --> 00:27:26.770
It doesn't seem like you'll take five years.

00:27:26.770 --> 00:27:30.030
I have a question.

00:27:30.830 --> 00:27:34.670
Can you explain to me what a sufficiency rate is?

00:27:34.930 --> 00:27:47.650
It's when they do a bridge project, there's a formula that goes through there that based on the condition of the bridge, it comes up with the sufficiency number.

00:27:48.210 --> 00:27:58.270
And then it has to be a certain level to be eligible for federal funding for replacement and below a certain level for federal funding for repairs.

00:27:58.270 --> 00:28:03.090
So, it's just a tool that saves up if it's eligible for it.

00:28:03.630 --> 00:28:06.550
So, it's basically a condition rating?

00:28:06.830 --> 00:28:08.610
Condition rating for federal funding.

00:28:08.870 --> 00:28:09.190
For federal.

00:28:09.430 --> 00:28:09.590
Yeah.

00:28:10.370 --> 00:28:12.970
And is that part of what's been taken over by the state?

00:28:13.790 --> 00:28:16.550
No, what's been taken over by the state is the bridge inspections.

00:28:17.250 --> 00:28:19.270
So, I don't know how close to those were.

00:28:19.590 --> 00:28:19.770
Yeah.

00:28:20.510 --> 00:28:24.130
The bridge inspection will generate this sufficiency number.

00:28:24.130 --> 00:28:24.770
Oh, okay.

00:28:24.770 --> 00:28:32.370
but I think they're supposed to be getting away from the sufficiency number, but I don't

00:28:32.370 --> 00:28:35.330
know what the new procedures can be yet, so.

00:28:38.610 --> 00:28:40.830
Any other questions for Dale?

00:28:41.490 --> 00:28:41.770
Okay.

00:28:42.450 --> 00:28:42.990
Thank you, Joe.

00:28:43.710 --> 00:28:49.130
Next month, I'll show you, I've updated the Pave and Preservation Program, so I'll present

00:28:49.130 --> 00:28:49.770
that next month.

00:28:50.770 --> 00:28:51.530
Next month.

00:28:51.750 --> 00:28:52.070
Thank you.

00:28:52.070 --> 00:29:14.390
Yeah. Item 6.3 is current budget and death status. Again, this month was kind of slow with claims and stuff like that. We did get the HVAC, the four HVAC units installed last Tuesday, I believe it was, and they seem to be working okay just the time or so.

00:29:14.390 --> 00:29:43.610
So that bill will be on next month, but then I talked to Steve, there's quite a few claims from like dock construction season and stuff like that for next month. So amp up the claims and stuff like that. So, but as of right now, numbers are looking okay. I mean, salary, overtime, all that stuff. I've got through the winter good.

00:29:43.610 --> 00:29:46.450
So, as far as now, going good.

00:29:47.890 --> 00:29:48.950
Question, Mr. Brian?

00:29:52.310 --> 00:29:55.900
Sir, Mr. Brian?

00:29:55.900 --> 00:29:59.280
Item 7.0 is full of business, which there is in 10ies.

00:29:59.460 --> 00:30:04.740
We'll move on into new business, 8.1, to the engineering phase for the roundabout.

00:30:05.460 --> 00:30:14.460
Okay, we got a grant to do, a rural travel grant for preliminary engineering for phase one and phase two is for the roundabout.

00:30:18.600 --> 00:30:23.460
There's federal funds in the use of the engineering, so you have to do qualification-based selection.

00:30:23.460 --> 00:30:53.220
selection for that. And the county has a policy for qualification based selection. So we have to send out an RFQ request for qualifications for consultants. So before we can do that, we have to get approval from the oversight committee to send out the RFQ. So that's what's in front of you. The engineering, the preliminary engineering of phase one and phase two,

00:30:53.460 --> 00:31:23.460
the grant was for 523,915 and it's 100% funding so I think that number is very very high it's based on an engineer's estimate of construction for 3.49 million so I think that number is high but when we submitted for funding for the for the construction I had two different consultants give me an estimate of what it would cost to replace it ones that know a lot more

00:31:23.460 --> 00:31:28.140
about that I do, and one came in at $2 million, one came at $3.5 million, so I can use a higher

00:31:28.140 --> 00:31:33.780
one, and we got funding 100% for engineering, so yay for us.

00:31:37.280 --> 00:31:43.220
And so, you know, I had a motion just for a second input on S2JR.

00:31:43.220 --> 00:31:48.040
On that proposal, it's got 2023, is that going to be changed?

00:31:48.760 --> 00:31:50.600
Yeah, that was just a template.

00:31:50.840 --> 00:31:55.360
We haven't, since we haven't won the one we're going to sign out or whatever, or that's going

00:31:55.360 --> 00:32:01.360
Yeah, there's nothing to sign. We have to get approval from you before we can send the RFQ out.

00:32:01.360 --> 00:32:03.440
And once we get the, and you'll change the name.

00:32:03.600 --> 00:32:10.340
Because we're still waiting on some things to get, like, to do the Q-Quality-based selection error, correct?

00:32:10.720 --> 00:32:10.860
Yeah.

00:32:10.860 --> 00:32:14.880
This isn't an actual type. It's just giving me, like, a chance to change the name.

00:32:14.880 --> 00:32:27.280
It'll be very close to that, but we, the RTA, the FHWA have to approve the RFQ before we send it out.

00:32:27.560 --> 00:32:31.220
So what you've got is a real close template to what they're doing.

00:32:31.700 --> 00:32:31.940
Excellent.

00:32:32.240 --> 00:32:33.020
I'm taking sure.

00:32:33.940 --> 00:32:38.860
Mr. Newton, your motion is to approve the RFQ for this bonding track.

00:32:38.860 --> 00:33:05.790
and Mr. Maduro, second, so we have a motion and a second. Any discussion? Seeing none, all those in favor say aye. Aye. 8.1 is approved. William Irons 8.2 and H.T. 26-8. This is an agreement to sign the Uniprice Agreement for Federal Day Labor Work. This is for the SEAL COAT work.

00:33:05.790 --> 00:33:15.190
the engineer's estimate came in at $267,000 and so we'll get reimbursed for 80% of that worth.

00:33:17.290 --> 00:33:18.790
It's a pleasure to be made.

00:33:19.810 --> 00:33:21.370
We'll be moved by Mr. Jogerst.

00:33:21.470 --> 00:33:22.210
Is there a second?

00:33:23.510 --> 00:33:23.990
Second.

00:33:24.190 --> 00:33:25.510
I have a second by Mr. Maduro.

00:33:25.690 --> 00:33:25.850
Okay.

00:33:25.990 --> 00:33:26.470
Discussion?

00:33:27.510 --> 00:33:31.910
Seeing none, all those in favor of Form 6-08, say aye.

00:33:32.050 --> 00:33:32.350
Aye.

00:33:33.070 --> 00:33:34.070
Motion is approved.

00:33:35.790 --> 00:33:57.550
the top two.

00:33:58.750 --> 00:34:00.310
Actually, I'll just hang out with those.

00:34:06.140 --> 00:34:06.660
Same.

00:34:29.480 --> 00:34:30.920
Yeah, the second page.

00:34:30.920 --> 00:34:34.300
Well, you know, that's when we

00:34:34.300 --> 00:34:36.860
I'll actually sort it all out there.

00:34:38.380 --> 00:34:39.620
That here's my boy.

00:34:39.620 --> 00:35:26.290
That takes us to 8.3 and the HD 26-09 culvert repair and cost sharing with the Wattens for the township.

00:35:26.290 --> 00:35:40.790
There's a request from Wattens for the township to share the cost of a culvert on Unity Road and total construction costs $90,700, so the county share will be $45,350.

00:35:40.790 --> 00:36:08.160
I have a motion to approve the message over and second, is there any discussion? Questions? Say none. All those players say aye. Aye. Aye. Motion is approved. Just one question. Two of them? I'm sorry, I lied. Two of them.

00:36:08.160 --> 00:37:06.470
I just wanted to thank you guys for coming up to Lena and probably you were at school city as well for the

00:37:06.470 --> 00:37:11.110
helping out with all that work that was up there.

00:37:11.350 --> 00:37:38.770
There's a lot going on. I appreciate it. Thank you. It was something. Yeah, it was amazing. It was amazing. Yeah, like, I mean, people came from everywhere. Yeah. Yeah. So thank you. Except I not. Well, I was told nobody asked them. Yeah. They were on standby and nobody asked them. Okay. Okay. Nobody physically asked.

00:37:38.770 --> 00:37:39.850
got a hand, I guess.

00:37:39.990 --> 00:37:41.810
Nobody actually asked us either.

00:37:42.010 --> 00:37:43.990
We just, yeah, it was there.

00:37:44.250 --> 00:37:45.050
You know, we shade it.

00:37:48.410 --> 00:37:49.550
Any other comments?

00:37:51.350 --> 00:37:52.870
Is there a motion to adjourn?

00:37:54.330 --> 00:37:56.010
Any motion by Mr. Newton?

00:37:56.210 --> 00:37:59.430
A second by Mr. Jogerst, which is the discussion.

00:38:00.350 --> 00:38:01.550
All those in favor say aye.

00:38:01.710 --> 00:38:01.870
Aye.

00:38:01.990 --> 00:38:03.810
I want you to repeat the Mr. Jogerst, thanks.

00:38:04.130 --> 00:38:04.510
Thank you.

00:38:09.650 --> 00:38:11.290
