In my experience people do not necessarily show up. Well we'll have the opportunity to do that that's all we can do is let them know that the opportunity is there if they come or not. 300 00:16:36,879 --> 00:16:38,450 See ya. 301 00:16:38,450 --> 00:16:54,470 I have some concerns about the emergency meeting and how it was not conducted here's the thing the notice came out without any 302 00:16:54,470 --> 00:17:02,769 reference to what statute was going to be used for the executive session I 303 00:17:02,769 --> 00:17:08,450 understand I don't I didn't know until tonight what the timeframe was because I understood I don't I didn't know until tonight what the timeframe. 304 00:17:08,450 --> 00:17:08,950 of course. 305 00:17:09,309 --> 00:17:13,920 But you had a select board meeting scheduled for two nights past that. 306 00:17:14,720 --> 00:17:19,460 It doesn't seem like the church, given all the conversations I've heard, 307 00:17:19,460 --> 00:17:24,089 like the church would say, no, we can't wait two days for you to bring it together. 308 00:17:24,930 --> 00:17:28,789 My other issue is in the minutes from that meeting, 309 00:17:29,789 --> 00:17:36,589 the statute listed for going into executive session was a discussion with legal counsel. 310 00:17:36,589 --> 00:17:41,839 But yet in the minutes of that, there's no mention that the lawyer was talked to, 311 00:17:42,119 --> 00:17:44,400 only a phone call to the real estate agent. 312 00:17:44,740 --> 00:17:49,799 And so I'm questioning, is that really a valid executive session? 313 00:17:50,359 --> 00:17:54,769 At the select board's meeting, we went into executive session, 314 00:17:54,910 --> 00:17:57,109 and I believe it was for two legal matters. 315 00:17:57,710 --> 00:17:58,569 We have two pending. 316 00:18:00,730 --> 00:18:04,130 And like Bill asked, will the town eventually know?

in the bank, like we talked about on executive session, 605 00:31:39,930 --> 00:31:48,920 and I would like to ask for a renovation money, which would be a lot less on the borrower side. 606 00:31:48,920 --> 00:31:53,900 Which we don't know what it will be yet until the inspection. 607 00:31:53,900 --> 00:31:54,180 Right. 608 00:31:54,180 --> 00:31:54,420 Okay. 609 00:31:54,420 -->

inspection, we don't have to give that to the other buyers or anything. 615 00:32:17,039 --> 00:32:17,880 That's our inspection. 616 00:32:17,880 --> 00:32:18,599 We paid for it. 617 00:32:18,599 --> 00:32:19,059 Yeah. 618 00:32:19,059 --> 00:32:21,240 Yeah, that's our . 619 00:32:21,240 --> 00:32:21,819 Yep. 620 00:32:21,819 --> 00:32:25,220 But the renovation is going to be dependent on your use. 621 00:32:25,220 --> 00:32:26,759 The intended use. 622 00:32:26,759 --> 00:32:27,519 Correct. 623 00:32:27,519 --> 00:32:34,059 But we know that if we get an inspection and they say, you need a new sewer system, that's $40,000. 624 00:32:34,059 --> 00:32:34,559 Yeah. 625 00:32:34,559 --> 00:32:35,619 But if they say, you need a new sewer system. 626 00:32:35,619 --> 00:32:36,880 That's all? 627 00:32:36,880 --> 00:32:37,619 Yeah. 628 00:32:37,619 --> 00:32:39,359 I think it's more than that. 629 00:32:39,359 --> 00:32:42,319 I could get you a bid on that building for less than $40,000. 630 00:32:42,319 --> 00:32:45,980 But if you're buying something more than that, let me know and I'll help you out on that. 631 00:32:45,980 --> 00:32:48,220 It's going to be a public space, I'm sure.

00:32:54,759 Wrinkler systems. 636 00:32:54,759 --> 00:32:55,059 Yeah. 637 00:32:55,220 --> 00:32:57,559 You know, a sprinkler system would have to be installed. 638 00:32:57,559 --> 00:32:58,059 Yeah. 639 00:32:58,059 --> 00:32:59,279 That was my question. 640 00:32:59,279 --> 00:33:01,180 Does it have to be fully ADA compliant? 641 00:33:01,180 --> 00:33:02,720 ADA compliant. 642 00:33:02,720 --> 00:33:05,359 There's a list of about 40 grants right there. 643 00:33:05,359 --> 00:33:07,759 The Village Center designation. 644 00:33:07,759 --> 00:33:11,519 I haven't, I'm not a big grant guy, I haven't thoroughly studied through them. 645 00:33:11,519 --> 00:33:12,980 Anybody's welcome to look at it. 646 00:33:12,980 --> 00:33:14,619 It's public knowledge. 647 00:33:14,619 --> 00:33:20,819 But there is the potential for a lot of money to be available to do, you know, to bring the place into compliance. 648 00:33:20,819 --> 00:33:23,180 But there's no guarantee you'd get the grant, right? 649 00:33:23,180 --> 00:33:23,680 Right. 650 00:33:23,680 --> 00:33:30,680 Because it's in the Village Center designation, we'll probably more than likely have a, we'll have a pretty good shot at getting that grant. 651 00:33:30,680 --> 00:33:32,079 Probably more than likely. 652 00:33:32,079 --> 00:33:35,440 A lot of times, the Village Center applies to the Village Center. 653 00:33:35,440 --> 00:33:36,579 We did. 654 00:33:36,579 --> 00:33:38,519 So we made that decision before. 655 00:33:38,519 --> 00:33:40,119 Two or three years ago, when you were on there? 656 00:33:40,119 --> 00:33:40,440 Yep. 657 00:33:40,440 --> 00:33:41,279 For, yeah. 658 00:33:41,279 --> 00:33:46,920 So, can, how come, I mean, why would you forego this financing? 659 00:33:46,920 --> 00:33:48,880 I'm sorry, I'm stuck on it. 660 00:33:48,880 --> 00:33:56,640 Why wouldn't you just go forward with a finance contingency and use the money, or rainy day money, at the back end? 661 00:33:56,640 --> 00:33:59,920 I mean, if you give up, I have a tough time. 662 00:33:59,920 --> 00:34:01,579 I mean, money in the bank's money in the bank. 663 00:34:01,579 --> 00:34:05,119 It should be, rainy day fund is there for a reason. 664 00:34:05,119 --> 00:34:07,480 Why not go through the financing? 665 00:34:07,480 --> 00:34:10,280 Why not secure something? 666 00:34:10,280 --> 00:34:12,179 You don't have to sign at the end of the day. 667 00:34:12,179 --> 00:34:15,139 You don't, you can back away from that. 668 00:34:15,139 --> 00:34:17,780 Why would you do that, if that's all we have? 669 00:34:17,780 --> 00:34:24,940 I can only speak for myself, but my opinion would be to try to lessen the burden on you, as taxpayers. 670 00:34:24,940 --> 00:34:26,940 Either way, you're going to have a loan. 671 00:34:26,940 --> 00:34:29,650 Either way, you're going to have a loan. 672 00:34:29,650 --> 00:34:36,969 And it's, it's less expensive to get your primary financing than secondary financing. 673 00:34:36,969 --> 00:34:48,019 We're asking, we're asking for the financing from the bank for renovation, and that interest rate is about the same as getting the primary. 674 00:34:48,019 --> 00:34:53,780 We would still use the equity from the building, if we, if we ended up buying it. 675 00:34:53,780 --> 00:35:05,349 And that, again, is, to me, as a business person, it is much better to spend money under your pillow, and then hold on to it for years. 676 00:35:05,349 --> 00:35:17,750 And a dollar bill goes down every year, and the last four years, it's gone between nine and 15% less buying power, that dollar bill, because you get no money for it. 677 00:35:17,750 --> 00:35:20,519 You'll just know what it is today. 678 00:35:20,519 --> 00:35:21,579 Exactly. 679 00:35:21,579 --> 00:35:23,780 No, it's in finance now. 680 00:35:23,780 --> 00:35:30,280 If you, I, I've been on the side of finding. 681 00:35:30,280 --> 00:35:31,480 I take a loan out every five years. 682 00:35:31,480 --> 00:35:32,320 Yeah, I get it. 683 00:35:32,320 --> 00:35:33,980 That's 35 years, I think. 684 00:35:33,980 --> 00:35:37,519 I just think, as a community, we should hold on to our money. 685 00:35:37,519 --> 00:35:38,780 My, my opinion. 686 00:35:38,780 --> 00:35:39,739 I disagree. 687 00:35:39,739 --> 00:35:40,619 That's fine. 688 00:35:40,619 --> 00:35:46,210 $32,660 in one fund. 689 00:35:46,210 --> 00:35:47,710 That's the Future Leads Fund. 690 00:35:47,710 --> 00:35:53,710 It's been sitting there for quite a few years, probably, because we used some for broadband. 691 00:35:53,710 --> 00:35:55,309 What is the rating day for? 692 00:35:55,309 --> 00:36:16,599 We used some to build this addition, and it was all, all this money was received from the sale of Alpenwald Lots when we had the big tax sale out in the gym, and probably in 2006, I think that might be it. 693 00:36:16,599 --> 00:36:18,019 2006. 694 00:36:18,019 --> 00:36:20,519 Maybe the money from the Grange that was sold back then. 695 00:36:20,519 --> 00:36:23,920 That's, no, I don't know where that went. 696 00:36:23,920 --> 00:36:25,719 That's not in there. 697 00:36:25,719 --> 00:36:28,519 That's before my time, so that's not in there. 698 00:36:28,519 --> 00:36:29,519 Okay, good. 699 00:36:29,519 --> 00:36:44,300 I think at one time from the sale of the Alpenwald, we had probably 100,000 or so, and like I said, it went for this addition, broadband, and I think it was something else that we used it for. 700 00:36:44,300 --> 00:36:47,849 I have to go back and tell reports and see that. 701 00:36:47,849 --> 00:36:49,610 So you were telling about the funds. 702 00:36:49,610 --> 00:36:50,849 So that's a 32 there. 703 00:36:50,849 --> 00:36:51,849 Mm-hmm. 704 00:36:51,849 --> 00:36:56,429 The other one is the invested funds. 705 00:36:56,429 --> 00:36:59,429 We have about 161,000 in that. 706 00:36:59,429 --> 00:37:07,750 That fund is from when people sold their land to National Forest. 707 00:37:07,750 --> 00:37:09,750 We lost money. 708 00:37:09,750 --> 00:37:22,320 So the select board at that time in the late 80s, mid-80s, asked the person that was selling their land to please give us some money in lieu of taxes. 709 00:37:22,320 --> 00:37:23,320 Okay. 710 00:37:23,320 --> 00:37:24,320 And that's what we're losing. 711 00:37:24,320 --> 00:37:39,059 I don't know if the National Forest was structured, if they structured their payments to the town back then, or if we, I don't know what we did, but the selectman asked for money. 712 00:37:39,059 --> 00:37:41,059 It was put in there. 713 00:37:41,059 --> 00:37:47,059 Every year, Lori takes money out of these, out of this account to help reduce your taxes. 714 00:37:47,059 --> 00:37:49,059 And what do you usually take out? 715 00:37:49,059 --> 00:37:50,059 Five? 716 00:37:50,059 --> 00:37:51,059 8,000? 717 00:37:51,059 --> 00:37:52,059 I take out the interest. 718 00:37:52,059 --> 00:37:53,059 The interest. 719 00:37:53,059 --> 00:37:54,059 The interest. 720 00:37:54,059 --> 00:37:59,059 So there will be an impact when you remove that money from an invested fund. 721 00:37:59,059 --> 00:38:00,059 You'll pay taxes on that. 722 00:38:00,059 --> 00:38:01,059 Right. 723 00:38:01,059 --> 00:38:02,059 We'll pay taxes on it? 724 00:38:02,059 --> 00:38:03,059 No. 725 00:38:03,059 --> 00:38:04,059 It's in the money market. 726 00:38:04,059 --> 00:38:05,059 Right. 727 00:38:05,059 --> 00:38:08,059 But you're, yeah, but she does in lieu of taxes. 728 00:38:08,059 --> 00:38:09,059 It does. 729 00:38:09,059 --> 00:38:10,059 In lieu of your, to help you. 730 00:38:10,059 --> 00:38:11,059 The interest. 731 00:38:11,059 --> 00:38:12,059 I understand. 732 00:38:12,059 --> 00:38:13,059 Yeah. 733 00:38:13,059 --> 00:38:14,059 But a lot less money then if we borrow. 734 00:38:14,059 --> 00:38:15,059 But it's not invested. 735 00:38:15,059 --> 00:38:16,059 9%, right? 736 00:38:16,059 --> 00:38:17,059 We have to pay taxes on whatever. 737 00:38:17,059 --> 00:38:18,059 No. 738 00:38:18,059 --> 00:38:23,059 It was at one time we were really getting good, good money for that. 739 00:38:23,059 --> 00:38:24,059 Yeah. 740 00:38:24,059 --> 00:38:25,059 But it can't, a town can't do that. 741 00:38:25,059 --> 00:38:26,059 We have to be more secure. 742 00:38:26,059 --> 00:38:27,059 But we learn these things over the years. 743 00:38:27,059 --> 00:38:28,059 Is there anything left after you buy the building that is approved? 744 00:38:28,059 --> 00:38:29,090 Is there anything left? 745 00:38:29,090 --> 00:38:30,090 No. 746 00:38:30,090 --> 00:38:31,090 No. 747 00:38:31,090 --> 00:38:32,090 The closing costs are probably. 748 00:38:32,090 --> 00:38:33,090 It was a lot there. 749 00:38:33,090 --> 00:38:34,090 Because we figure inspection costs, attorney closing fee, transfer tax due to the state. 750 00:38:34,090 --> 00:38:35,090 What did we come up with? 751 00:38:35,090 --> 00:38:36,090 192 or something like that. 752 00:38:36,090 --> 00:38:37,090 Well, then you have to have a letter of counsel. 753 00:38:37,090 --> 00:38:38,090 That's right. 754 00:38:38,090 --> 00:38:39,090 That's right. 755 00:38:39,090 --> 00:38:40,090 That's right. 756 00:38:40,090 --> 00:38:41,090 That's right. 757 00:38:41,090 --> 00:38:42,090 That's right. 758 00:38:42,090 --> 00:38:43,090 That's right. 759 00:38:43,090 --> 00:38:44,119 That's right. 760 00:38:44,119 --> 00:38:45,119 That's right. 761 00:38:45,119 --> 00:38:46,119 That's right. 762 00:38:46,119 --> 00:38:47,119 That's right. 763 00:38:47,119 --> 00:38:48,119 That's right. 764 00:38:48,119 --> 00:38:49,119 That's right. 765 00:38:49,119 --> 00:38:50,119 That's right. 766 00:38:50,119 --> 00:38:51,119 That's right. 767 00:38:51,119 --> 00:38:52,119 That's right. 768 00:38:52,119 --> 00:38:53,119 Yeah. 769 00:38:53,119 --> 00:38:54,119 That's right. 770 00:38:54,119 --> 00:38:55,119 That's right. 771 00:38:55,119 --> 00:38:56,119 That's right. 772 00:38:56,119 --> 00:38:57,119 Yeah. 773 00:38:57,119 --> 00:38:58,119 That's right. 774 00:38:58,119 --> 00:38:59,119 All right. 775 00:38:59,119 --> 00:39:00,119 You have a letter of counsel. 776 00:39:00,119 --> 00:39:01,119 I think you have a letter of counsel. 777 00:39:01,119 --> 00:39:02,119 That's not going to be enough. 778 00:39:02,119 --> 00:39:03,599 The micro blast that we had on Clendon's Road that some other people experienced in. 779 00:39:03,599 --> 00:39:04,599 If we've had an emergency, what money do we have left to deal with it? 780 00:39:04,599 --> 00:39:05,599 When this building lifted of its foundation. 781 00:39:05,599 --> 00:39:06,599 Insurance. 782 00:39:06,599 --> 00:39:07,599 Insurance. 783 00:39:07,599 --> 00:39:08,599 Yeah. 784 00:39:08,599 --> 00:39:09,599 Just saying. 785 00:39:09,599 --> 00:39:10,599 Everything's insuring. 786 00:39:10,599 --> 00:39:11,599 Yep. 787 00:39:11,599 --> 00:39:12,599 We may have a warming center, potentially, because we . 788 00:39:12,599 --> 00:39:13,599 We'll let them know that they're going to move around, everything is insured. 789 00:39:13,599 --> 00:39:14,599 OK. 790 00:39:14,599 --> 00:39:15,599 Yeah. 791 00:39:15,599 --> 00:39:16,599 Yeah. 792 00:39:16,599 --> 00:39:17,599 Thank you. 793 00:39:17,599 --> 00:39:18,599 Yeah. 794 00:39:18,599 --> 00:39:19,599 Great. 795 00:39:19,599 --> 00:39:20,599 Thank you. 796 00:39:20,599 --> 00:39:21,599 No problem. 797 00:39:21,599 --> 00:39:23,639 And that building is not in the floodplain. 798 00:39:23,980 --> 00:39:25,780 Some of the land in the back is, but that thing is not. 799 00:39:25,780 --> 00:39:29,980 One thing I think, and I would like to put this as public knowledge, 800 00:39:29,980 --> 00:39:37,659 is the building wasn't taxable, but it was insured for the value that the insurance company said was $356,000. 801 00:39:38,800 --> 00:39:40,420 So that number shows. 802 00:39:41,659 --> 00:39:42,699 There's an opinion. 803 00:39:42,880 --> 00:39:46,199 I think the church voted for a lot less than we could have voted for. 804 00:39:46,460 --> 00:39:48,960 But that's just an opinion on my side. 805 00:39:48,960 --> 00:39:54,840 Like, it just seems like it was a pretty fair price for the church to put it out there. 806 00:39:55,179 --> 00:40:00,099 But, you know, if you look at what buildings are selling for in this town right now, 807 00:40:00,199 --> 00:40:06,489 and you guys all got your evaluations, that building will be definitely bagged more than $175,000. 808 00:40:07,889 --> 00:40:09,409 How much property is that guy? 809 00:40:09,630 --> 00:40:11,210 About $40,000. 810 00:40:12,510 --> 00:40:14,289 And down in the back is beautiful. 811 00:40:14,969 --> 00:40:16,409 Last week I walked it. 812 00:40:16,670 --> 00:40:19,869 It was the first time in 55 years that I walked. 813 00:40:19,949 --> 00:40:23,559 Down in the back, beautiful land, right to the river. 814 00:40:24,360 --> 00:40:28,139 It's kind of flat, but, I mean, if you have a flood, it's going to come up. 815 00:40:29,150 --> 00:40:40,159 As money-wise, you know, you say envision, but what am I, when I was looking at whether or not we were going to sign this, 816 00:40:41,260 --> 00:40:46,619 if everything went through, the inspector said, hey, there's very minimal things that happened. 817 00:40:48,329 --> 00:40:50,429 So it wasn't this big box. 818 00:40:50,530 --> 00:40:52,750 If it was a big box, we probably wouldn't go forward anyway. 819 00:40:53,030 --> 00:41:02,670 But if we went, let's just say we put $50,000 into renovations, just to bring it up to, you know, par, I don't know what codes are or not or anything, 820 00:41:02,829 --> 00:41:10,039 but if we did that, and a year goes by and we said, look, nobody's using this, we're not going to, 821 00:41:10,079 --> 00:41:14,199 if we put that up for sale, and I don't feel we're going to lose anything. 822 00:41:14,199 --> 00:41:22,199 And I just think that if you look at just the history of Stanford, you know, places are selling, I mean, 823 00:41:22,199 --> 00:41:25,500 they're putting things on harvester, selling in two days, you know. 824 00:41:25,500 --> 00:41:30,039 So I just think that it's a good investment down the road, you know. 825 00:41:30,039 --> 00:41:36,019 That would be my opinion on the board, is that it's a good idea to purchase it. 826 00:41:36,019 --> 00:41:39,119 You know, we know there's two other bids. 827 00:41:39,119 --> 00:41:40,460 They must have thought the same thing. 828 00:41:41,860 --> 00:41:42,900 One last question. 829 00:41:43,460 --> 00:41:49,320 If a private enterprise made a proposal to put, say, a coffee shop in there, 830 00:41:49,960 --> 00:41:52,360 would that be something that would be entertained? 831 00:41:52,360 --> 00:41:52,599 Yes. 832 00:41:53,000 --> 00:41:57,280 By the board, would that be thrown into the mix of possible uses? 833 00:41:57,519 --> 00:41:59,300 The town could lease space. 834 00:41:59,539 --> 00:42:01,639 That's what I'm asking. 835 00:42:01,880 --> 00:42:03,780 Because I don't know the other side of the space. 836 00:42:04,059 --> 00:42:06,000 Whether it's dual use or. 837 00:42:06,500 --> 00:42:09,699 That's probably one of the things that could happen in there. 838 00:42:09,699 --> 00:42:12,599 I mean, we're not even there yet. 839 00:42:14,730 --> 00:42:17,090 That's not out of the realm of possibility. 840 00:42:17,929 --> 00:42:19,250 That's a good idea, actually. 841 00:42:20,670 --> 00:42:22,610 Is the inspection due to happen? 842 00:42:23,869 --> 00:42:24,030 Soon? 843 00:42:24,449 --> 00:42:24,670 Yeah. 844 00:42:25,170 --> 00:42:29,289 So what will we all get a copy of that report? 845 00:42:32,199 --> 00:42:35,179 Is it be interesting to see on our end? 846 00:42:35,639 --> 00:42:37,099 I don't know that, probably. 847 00:42:37,880 --> 00:42:42,400 Well, Mike said that it wouldn't be shared with the others. 848 00:42:42,400 --> 00:42:44,920 That's in the best interest of the town right now. 849 00:42:44,920 --> 00:42:45,619 I don't know that. 850 00:42:46,239 --> 00:42:50,179 Because if that copy got out to the other bidders, you know, they know. 851 00:42:50,179 --> 00:42:53,000 I don't know if that's fair to the church to do that. 852 00:42:53,239 --> 00:42:54,039 But, I mean. 853 00:42:54,320 --> 00:42:59,090 I think that if there's a, I think that the people should know what the expense would be. 854 00:43:01,340 --> 00:43:08,360 At least the estimates of what they find, what the cost might be. 855 00:43:08,360 --> 00:43:12,719 If this, you know, if they come back and they say this is going to be $500,000 to renovate this, you know. 856 00:43:12,719 --> 00:43:12,840 Yeah. 857 00:43:13,139 --> 00:43:14,019 That's just a little bit. 858 00:43:14,679 --> 00:43:15,380 But I think. 859 00:43:15,400 --> 00:43:16,840 Experts don't usually do that, though. 860 00:43:16,900 --> 00:43:17,860 They just say what's wrong. 861 00:43:17,880 --> 00:43:19,079 Well, that's what I was going to ask. 862 00:43:19,079 --> 00:43:19,340 Yeah. 863 00:43:20,059 --> 00:43:21,019 Yeah, they don't. 864 00:43:21,420 --> 00:43:23,099 Let's just say that the. 865 00:43:25,119 --> 00:43:26,539 Sore needs to get replaced. 866 00:43:26,659 --> 00:43:28,460 And let's just say it's more than $40,000. 867 00:43:28,599 --> 00:43:30,780 Let's go $60,000, right? 868 00:43:30,880 --> 00:43:31,900 So that's $60,000. 869 00:43:32,159 --> 00:43:32,760 That's a lot of money. 870 00:43:33,420 --> 00:43:35,500 And then they say you've got to put an artesian well in. 871 00:43:35,800 --> 00:43:37,639 That's another $15,000, $20,000. 872 00:43:38,300 --> 00:43:43,119 So now you're up to $80,000 before you do any carpentry work, you know. 873 00:43:43,179 --> 00:43:46,099 So then we can look at it and say, this is getting too much. 874 00:43:46,420 --> 00:43:51,940 Do we have somebody in mind that's going to, I mean, I'm sure the attorney or whomever. 875 00:43:52,460 --> 00:43:55,000 I just know that when Poundell went through all of. 876 00:43:55,119 --> 00:43:58,980 You know, when they bought, did they build a new center? 877 00:43:59,639 --> 00:44:02,539 It was, I think, in excess of a million dollars. 878 00:44:02,539 --> 00:44:11,599 So for us to bring a municipal building up to ADA compliancy, I can only imagine the expense. 879 00:44:11,800 --> 00:44:16,460 I know people who have had to go through it just to add an apartment down in Massachusetts. 880 00:44:17,320 --> 00:44:17,559 Different. 881 00:44:17,880 --> 00:44:20,480 But, you know, sprinkler system isn't cheap. 882 00:44:21,079 --> 00:44:24,619 Your insurance rate, of course, goes up once you put sprinklers in. 883 00:44:25,000 --> 00:44:26,019 So all of these. 884 00:44:26,039 --> 00:44:32,019 These things, I mean, we have such a small time to get these numbers together before the meeting. 885 00:44:32,179 --> 00:44:33,440 And we all have to know. 886 00:44:33,519 --> 00:44:35,239 And it's got to get out to the townspeople. 887 00:44:35,420 --> 00:44:35,860 They have to. 888 00:44:36,000 --> 00:44:36,139 Sure. 889 00:44:36,420 --> 00:44:37,679 That's what I said in the beginning. 890 00:44:37,900 --> 00:44:40,719 And so do you have people lined up? 891 00:44:40,719 --> 00:44:45,380 Because the inspection contingency is kind of short. 892 00:44:47,300 --> 00:44:47,639 November. 893 00:44:47,960 --> 00:44:51,239 We can ask also for extra time any time we want. 894 00:44:51,880 --> 00:44:55,780 They actually said to us, just give them a call and they will change that. 895 00:44:55,780 --> 00:44:57,039 I think they want to work with us. 896 00:44:57,159 --> 00:45:03,599 If the inspection took longer or if it took longer for us to get those contractors to give us the bids and we find that out. 897 00:45:03,860 --> 00:45:06,019 You can't ask contractors until you find out what you need. 898 00:45:06,099 --> 00:45:06,320 Right. 899 00:45:06,619 --> 00:45:08,719 We can call the church and put it right in there. 900 00:45:08,719 --> 00:45:12,420 They said they would put whatever we need in there as long as we're moving forward. 901 00:45:13,179 --> 00:45:17,000 So the realtor was wonderful. 902 00:45:18,179 --> 00:45:20,260 But she's not looking out for your interest. 903 00:45:20,460 --> 00:45:21,599 She's looking out for. 904 00:45:21,659 --> 00:45:23,059 She's looking out for the Catholic. 905 00:45:23,579 --> 00:45:23,980 Yeah. 906 00:45:24,179 --> 00:45:25,820 She's looking out for the church. 907 00:45:26,079 --> 00:45:26,239 Well. 908 00:45:26,460 --> 00:45:27,400 So I guess that's not true. 909 00:45:27,420 --> 00:45:31,460 It's still, she's still not representing you. 910 00:45:31,460 --> 00:45:32,360 Oh, no, I understand. 911 00:45:32,360 --> 00:45:32,579 Yeah. 912 00:45:32,739 --> 00:45:36,480 So she may be sweet and kind, but beware. 913 00:45:36,699 --> 00:45:36,840 Yeah. 914 00:45:37,119 --> 00:45:37,320 Yeah. 915 00:45:37,500 --> 00:45:38,920 Some realtors can do that. 916 00:45:38,920 --> 00:45:39,800 I understand. 917 00:45:41,900 --> 00:45:47,420 So you're, I'm just going to ask you this, the inspectors, they will tell us what is wrong. 918 00:45:48,300 --> 00:45:52,420 They will, they will identify issues that you should be aware of. 919 00:45:52,420 --> 00:45:56,500 And then we would get our own contractor in. 920 00:45:57,260 --> 00:45:58,559 How much to bring this electric? 921 00:45:58,639 --> 00:46:07,690 How much for ADA, how much for septic, water, or you could go back to the diocese and say, 922 00:46:07,690 --> 00:46:09,530 you know what, it's going to cost us X amount. 923 00:46:09,710 --> 00:46:12,730 Yeah, let's reduce the price by this amount. 924 00:46:12,730 --> 00:46:17,769 That's actually what I did when I put my sewer in, I said to the bot or the seller, I said, 925 00:46:17,769 --> 00:46:23,110 look, it's going to cost me $28,000, which was the middle bid, not the high bid, not the low bid. 926 00:46:23,110 --> 00:46:26,849 It was, but it was A1 and that was my buddy and I wanted him to do it. 927 00:46:27,389 --> 00:46:28,809 And I said, this is what it's going to cost. 928 00:46:28,809 --> 00:46:32,599 And the seller said, no problem. 929 00:46:32,599 --> 00:46:34,900 You can't sell it when you, until you do that anyway. 930 00:46:34,900 --> 00:46:35,719 So they had to do it. 931 00:46:35,800 --> 00:46:39,820 Well, you can sell it if you don't have cash, cash, absolutely. 932 00:46:39,820 --> 00:46:41,599 Who would want, who would want to put a sewer in. 933 00:46:42,400 --> 00:46:44,460 So they did it. 934 00:46:44,460 --> 00:46:44,960 No problem. 935 00:46:45,320 --> 00:46:45,820 Okay. 936 00:46:46,219 --> 00:46:51,329 Can we move on to the Warren article, which one do we want? 937 00:46:51,349 --> 00:46:55,670 So the town, so the voters of the town of Stanford authorized the purchase of the former St. 938 00:46:55,670 --> 00:46:59,949 John Bosco church building located at 818 Main Road, Stanford for the price of $175,000. 939 00:47:00,889 --> 00:47:07,159 We don't want to authorize, we don't want to authorize border wing because we don't want the border wing in there. 940 00:47:07,159 --> 00:47:07,659 Right? 941 00:47:08,639 --> 00:47:08,940 Right. 942 00:47:08,940 --> 00:47:14,880 These are a variety of different articles that the, I think we want articles, third article. 943 00:47:14,880 --> 00:47:19,019 Even though we've done a four for the borrowing or something that more down to exceed $100,000. 944 00:47:19,019 --> 00:47:23,880 But the first, I think what we want for the first article is the third article, one down. 945 00:47:24,719 --> 00:47:26,840 So this one, this one, this one, the shortage. 946 00:47:26,840 --> 00:47:28,960 So the town of Stanford purchased the former St. 947 00:47:28,960 --> 00:47:31,480 John Bosco building located at 818 Main Road. 948 00:47:31,719 --> 00:47:36,219 For the price of $175,000, yes or no, if it's no, we're done. 949 00:47:36,219 --> 00:47:36,719 Paul. 950 00:47:36,880 --> 00:47:37,380 Okay. 951 00:47:37,719 --> 00:47:38,219 Right. 952 00:47:38,260 --> 00:47:38,980 Yes, ma'am. 953 00:47:39,159 --> 00:47:39,579 Okay. 954 00:47:39,579 --> 00:47:44,260 Whatever you say, I'll be there and I am going to request paper ballot. 955 00:47:44,260 --> 00:47:49,599 So we know, I just don't understand why you would not sign that first one. 956 00:47:49,659 --> 00:47:49,960 Sorry. 957 00:47:49,960 --> 00:47:51,460 I'm hung up on that mortgage. 958 00:47:51,760 --> 00:47:55,059 You don't have to go through with it, but now you're taking that away. 959 00:47:55,360 --> 00:47:57,159 You're taking that out of the equation. 960 00:47:57,159 --> 00:47:59,679 It doesn't mean you have to finance it. 961 00:47:59,920 --> 00:48:01,420 If the voters vote. 962 00:48:01,719 --> 00:48:03,340 You have to finance it through a mortgage. 963 00:48:03,760 --> 00:48:04,539 You have to do it. 964 00:48:04,539 --> 00:48:05,139 That's the vote I vote. 965 00:48:05,280 --> 00:48:05,480 Yeah. 966 00:48:05,480 --> 00:48:06,139 That's it. 967 00:48:06,139 --> 00:48:07,380 They, then they can't. 968 00:48:07,380 --> 00:48:09,480 If the voters tell you to do it that way, you got to do it that way. 969 00:48:09,480 --> 00:48:15,539 I just don't want to see every penny that we have in security, but that's me. 970 00:48:15,539 --> 00:48:17,599 You want to do half of that, pay half of it in finance? 971 00:48:17,599 --> 00:48:18,280 No, don't. 972 00:48:18,420 --> 00:48:18,760 No. 973 00:48:18,760 --> 00:48:21,719 I'm just, it's just my security. 974 00:48:21,719 --> 00:48:22,719 Do it the way you're doing it. 975 00:48:22,719 --> 00:48:23,079 Yeah. 976 00:48:23,079 --> 00:48:28,719 We have, we have insurance for any building, any truck, any vehicle that we have in town. 977 00:48:28,980 --> 00:48:29,980 We have insurance for all that. 978 00:48:29,980 --> 00:48:31,719 We have insurance for the contents of the building. 979 00:48:31,719 --> 00:48:38,440 The town garage and the top contents of this place, any emergency that can foresee that 980 00:48:38,440 --> 00:48:42,489 the generator went out, the school has money, right? 981 00:48:42,489 --> 00:48:47,710 So I just don't see any emergency that we would need at this point that we wouldn't 982 00:48:47,710 --> 00:48:51,369 be able to go to bank and borrow money and be back in that same situation. 983 00:48:52,110 --> 00:48:55,869 And borrowing money from these accounts, we borrowed it for the fire truck. 984 00:48:55,869 --> 00:48:58,610 We borrowed it to pay for our own vehicles. 985 00:48:59,190 --> 00:49:02,309 I paid back a quarter million dollars on a hundred, you know, 986 00:49:02,550 --> 00:49:05,050 a hundred and something thousand, a few more than that. 987 00:49:05,050 --> 00:49:12,880 You'll be doubling the money, you know, that over five years, just to me, the interest rates 988 00:49:12,880 --> 00:49:14,840 are too high at this time. 989 00:49:14,840 --> 00:49:20,840 I mean, we can very well, by the time we sign it and do it, it could be eight, nine percent. 990 00:49:20,840 --> 00:49:22,739 Why do you even get that far? 991 00:49:22,739 --> 00:49:26,980 I don't think, you know, if the townspeople don't want it, I don't think we have to worry 992 00:49:26,980 --> 00:49:28,369 about that. 993 00:49:28,369 --> 00:49:34,489 Personally, I just think that it's financially responsible to not borrow money and not have 994 00:49:34,489 --> 00:49:40,309 to pay that much back versus the dollar in your, like you said, you put a dollar in 995 00:49:40,309 --> 00:49:43,800 your pillow, you know, that dollar goes away. 996 00:49:43,800 --> 00:49:45,400 I mean, think about it, you know? 997 00:49:45,400 --> 00:49:46,400 I agree. 998 00:49:46,400 --> 00:49:48,400 You guys put a dollar in your pillow when you were 18. 999 00:49:48,400 --> 00:49:49,400 How much is it? 1000 00:49:49,400 --> 00:49:50,400 You've got buying power now. 1001 00:49:50,400 --> 00:49:52,400 You could get a whole tank of gas back then. 1002 00:49:52,400 --> 00:49:53,400 Taxes took it all the way in. 1003 00:49:53,400 --> 00:49:54,400 Exactly. 1004 00:49:54,400 --> 00:49:55,400 There you go. 1005 00:49:55,400 --> 00:49:59,099 So somebody's making money. 1006 00:49:59,099 --> 00:50:03,320 So where are we going with the third article? 1007 00:50:03,320 --> 00:50:04,320 Third article number two. 1008 00:50:04,320 --> 00:50:05,320 Third article number one. 1009 00:50:05,320 --> 00:50:06,320 Yeah. 1010 00:50:06,320 --> 00:50:07,320 Yeah. 1011 00:50:07,820 --> 00:50:09,460 All in favor? 1012 00:50:09,460 --> 00:50:10,809 Aye. 1013 00:50:10,809 -->

we're going to buy it. 1018 00:50:17,539 --> 00:50:18,539 Now we've got to come up with the money. 1019 00:50:18,539 --> 00:50:19,539 Shall the Town of Stanford release and replete the Balance in the Future Needs Fund, estimated 1020 00:50:19,539 --> 00:50:20,539 to be $32,660 for the use and purchase price? 1021 00:50:20,539 --> 00:50:21,539 Motion. 1022 00:50:21,539 --> 00:50:22,539 For use toward the purchase. 1023 00:50:22,539 --> 00:50:23,539 This, um, what's that word? 1024 00:50:23,539 --> 00:50:24,539 You want to change it? 1025 00:50:24,539 --> 00:50:25,539 Toward? 1026

00:50:53,059 What? 1051 00:50:53,059 --> 00:50:54,059 g. 1052 00:50:54,059 --> 00:50:55,059 Oh. 1053 00:50:55,059 --> 00:50:56,059 Peering center? 1054 00:50:56,059 --> 00:51:01,860 Yeah, yeah.. 1055 00:51:01,860 --> 00:51:02,860 No, no, that's okay, right? 1056 00:51:02,860 --> 00:51:03,860 Yeah. 1057 00:51:03,860 --> 00:51:04,860 Toward the.....just take out for use? 1058 00:51:04,860 --> 00:51:05,860 Just take that out for the burge price? 1059 00:51:05,860 --> 00:51:06,860 Yeah. 1060 00:51:06,860 --> 00:51:07,860 We have to say release and replete because this Fund was set up, the Select Four could 1061 00:51:07,860 --> 00:51:11,579 not just spend it willy nilly however you wanted it, it had to be at a Tellett Supervisor. 1062 00:51:11,579 --> 00:51:12,579 Motion. 1063 00:51:12,579 --> 00:51:13,579 Second. 1064 00:51:13,579 --> 00:51:15,579 All in favor? 1065 00:51:15,579 --> 00:51:17,190 Aye. 1066 00:51:17,190 --> 00:51:18,190 Shall the Town of... 1067 00:51:18,190 --> 00:51:25,849 The town of Stanford released up to $155,000 from the investment funds towards the purchase price. 1068 00:51:25,849 --> 00:51:34,050 And that $155,000 will hopefully include the inspection, 1069 00:51:34,050 --> 00:51:39,869 the closing fee, transfer tax due to the state, reporting fee. 1070 00:51:39,869 --> 00:51:41,369 So I have a question on that. 1071 00:51:41,369 --> 00:51:45,369 We can waive the reporting fee. 1072 00:51:45,369 --> 00:51:47,909 Okay, but I have a question on this though. 1073 00:51:47,909 --> 00:51:49,849 I'm just part of that. 1074 00:51:49,849 --> 00:51:52,369 We're getting that inspection, we have to pay that anyways. 1075 00:51:52,369 --> 00:51:59,519 If this is up going to the common vote, where's the money coming from for the inspection in the first place? 1076 00:51:59,519 --> 00:52:04,119 Comes out of select board budget, and it's not in the line item, so- 1077 00:52:04,119 --> 00:52:06,079 Right, so it's going to be over budget. 1078 00:52:06,079 --> 00:52:06,880 On that one. 1079 00:52:06,880 --> 00:52:07,920 On that one, okay. 1080 00:52:07,920 --> 00:52:08,719 One line item. 1081 00:52:08,719 --> 00:52:10,000 You don't always put- 1082 00:52:10,000 --> 00:52:14,219 People know that we're doing this, but we have to use money. 1083 00:52:14,219 --> 00:52:16,679 We look for extra money in- 1084 00:52:16,679 --> 00:52:17,639 That was my question. 1085 00:52:17,639 --> 00:52:18,139 We're- 1086 00:52:18,139 --> 00:52:21,980 Yeah, well, the inspection money, we're going to have to pay it before this goes to a vote. 1087 00:52:21,980 --> 00:52:26,320 So if the vote is no, we're out with inspection money. 1088 00:52:26,320 --> 00:52:28,800 What kind of septic inspection are you going to do? 1089 00:52:28,800 --> 00:52:29,300 I am not sure. 1090 00:52:29,300 --> 00:52:30,300 Basic one. 1091 00:52:30,300 --> 00:52:33,289 Basic? 1092 00:52:33,289 --> 00:52:38,000 If one or two pass, but three doesn't, what happens? 1093 00:52:38,000 --> 00:52:39,159 We don't have the money. 1094 00:52:39,159 --> 00:52:39,760 Oh yeah. 1095 00:52:39,760 --> 00:52:41,630 We can't buy it. 1096 00:52:41,630 --> 00:52:42,289 Okay. 1097 00:52:42,289 --> 00:52:43,469 So it kills- 1098 00:52:43,469 --> 00:52:45,269 It's just contingent to the finance. 1099 00:52:45,269 --> 00:52:48,889 And if we don't have the money, if you guys don't pass the money, we can't buy it. 1100 00:52:48,889 --> 00:52:50,010 We go back to the . 1101 00:52:50,010 --> 00:52:52,110 Well, wait a minute, that's right. 1102 00:52:52,110 --> 00:52:53,650 So if our number one passes- 1103 00:52:53,650 --> 00:52:55,190 There's your finance problem right there. 1104 00:52:55,190 --> 00:53:00,510 People say we want to buy it, the 175, they say yes, but they don't finance it. 1105 00:53:00,510 --> 00:53:01,530 We can't buy that. 1106 00:53:01,530 --> 00:53:03,309 We tell them we can't buy it. 1107 00:53:03,309 --> 00:53:05,530 Swap the order and pull them off the end. 1108 00:53:05,530 --> 00:53:07,769 So you guys are doing a Title V inspection? 1109 00:53:07,769 --> 00:53:10,570 I'm not doing a Title V inspection. 1110 00:53:10,570 --> 00:53:14,889 I know it's not required in Vermont, but I'm just asking it so you know. 1111 00:53:14,889 --> 00:53:18,090 You all want more? 1112 00:53:18,090 --> 00:53:19,050 Yeah. 1113 00:53:19,050 --> 00:53:19,449 Why? 1114 00:53:19,449 --> 00:53:25,130 I agree to pay 175, and I don't have funds to pay it. 1115 00:53:25,130 --> 00:53:28,789 I know Article 2 has to be a separate warrant because that is- 1116 00:53:28,789 --> 00:53:29,889 We got to release the money. 1117 00:53:29,889 --> 00:53:30,909 We have to release that. 1118 00:53:30,909 --> 00:53:34,210 Article 2 must be separate, just by the way that- 1119 00:53:34,210 --> 00:53:35,809 But 155, not so much. 1120 00:53:35,809 --> 00:53:36,570 No, so- 1121 00:53:36,570 --> 00:53:37,889 So you could wrap that in- 1122 00:53:37,889 --> 00:53:44,210 I just don't think it's really, yeah, I mean, either way we have to, if you're going to all vote to buy it, 1123 00:53:44,210 --> 00:53:48,610 and you vote not to have the financing, that was fun, let's have it, you know. 1124 00:53:49,449 --> 00:53:54,010 You can't really take money out of the invested funds without having to vote. 1125 00:53:54,010 --> 00:54:00,130 Right, right, so I mean, either way, you can put it in, it doesn't matter to me, you know. 1126 00:54:00,130 --> 00:54:05,969 If everybody goes there and votes yes and doesn't vote for the financing, and you know that you can't do it without, 1127 00:54:05,969 --> 00:54:12,210 you buy it without the financing, you know, shame on you guys, we'll go out and have a beer or whatever. 1128 00:54:12,210 --> 00:54:16,449 We can add that to the sign from, oh, I should not have mentioned that, I'm sorry. 1129 00:54:16,449 --> 00:54:18,349 We're not going to say that word anymore. 1130 00:54:19,449 --> 00:54:25,239 So does that make sense here, what we're doing, one, two, and three? 1131 00:54:25,239 --> 00:54:25,719 Yes. 1132 00:54:25,719 --> 00:54:27,880 Laurie, yes? 1133 00:54:27,880 --> 00:54:33,190 Oh, I was looking for inspection information on the subject system. 1134 00:54:33,190 --> 00:54:38,030 What they, and I don't know anything about 205, what this one would do is- 1135 00:54:38,030 --> 00:54:39,710 It's just a little camera that goes in. 1136 00:54:39,710 --> 00:54:46,869 It would provide a scope that goes from the building to the main, to the tank, to the D box slash leased field- 1137 00:54:46,869 --> 00:54:48,710 So, yeah, that's, that's a- 1138 00:54:48,710 --> 00:54:49,349 That's a full- 1139 00:54:49,349 --> 00:54:52,829 That's a $900 inspection, right there. 1140 00:54:52,829 --> 00:54:54,750 Well, that's what, that's what we're getting. 1141 00:54:54,750 --> 00:54:57,150 Okay, so it's not a simple one. 1142 00:54:57,150 --> 00:54:58,190 That, that's a title. 1143 00:54:58,190 --> 00:55:00,190 Just a company called it a basic. 1144 00:55:00,190 --> 00:55:00,710 Yeah. 1145 00:55:00,710 --> 00:55:01,429 Maybe that's all they do. 1146 00:55:01,429 --> 00:55:03,550 They're, they're regular inspectors. 1147 00:55:03,550 --> 00:55:05,190 Okay. 1148 00:55:05,190 --> 00:55:07,550 Who's doing the inspections? 1149 00:55:07,550 --> 00:55:10,750 Norway Hill Home Inspectors. 1150 00:55:10,750 --> 00:55:15,099 And he does both, or they do, they do the septic? 1151 00:55:15,099 --> 00:55:15,619 Yes. 1152 00:55:15,619 --> 00:55:18,579 And is the water going out for testing? 1153 00:55:18,579 --> 00:55:19,539 They will be doing- 1154 00:55:19,539 --> 00:55:22,440 They will be doing that. 1155 00:55:22,440 --> 00:55:23,639 So, we will know if we- 1156 00:55:23,639 --> 00:55:28,050 The search will be on with the basic, okay. 1157 00:55:28,050 --> 00:55:36,289 Foundation structure, roof, portraits, decks, electrical, plumbing, windows, doors, heating, AC, appliances that are permanently installed. 1158 00:55:36,289 --> 00:55:36,929 Big company. 1159 00:55:36,929 --> 00:55:39,079 Yard drainage. 1160 00:55:39,079 --> 00:55:40,539 Oh, good. 1161 00:55:40,539 --> 00:55:41,219 Drainage. 1162 00:55:41,219 --> 00:55:42,619 Garage. 1163 00:55:42,619 --> 00:55:43,780 Let's fix that. 1164 00:55:43,780 --> 00:55:46,539 Yeah. 1165 00:55:46,539 --> 00:55:50,460 Hey, you're happy, you should be happy, you got water right now, it's so dry out there. 1166 00:55:50,460 --> 00:55:50,900 There's a lot of water. 1167 00:55:50,900 --> 00:55:51,900 There's a lot of water. 1168 00:55:51,900 --> 00:55:52,099 There's a lot of water. 1169 00:55:52,099 --> 00:55:53,420 There's no water. 1170 00:55:53,420 --> 00:55:53,820 No. 1171 00:55:53,820 --> 00:55:55,019 You have a shower well? 1172 00:55:55,019 --> 00:55:55,619 Yeah. 1173 00:55:55,619 --> 00:55:56,539 Oh, you still- 1174 00:55:56,539 --> 00:56:01,739 It's still good, but when we get a storm, everything off that parking lot comes right to one another. 1175 00:56:01,739 --> 00:56:02,260 All good. 1176 00:56:02,260 --> 00:56:04,260 Yeah. 1177 00:56:04,260 --> 00:56:17,980 I'm really confused about this financing business, because the town votes to buy the building, but then we, and there will be results of an inspection, right? 1178 00:56:17,980 --> 00:56:22,219 Does the town vote on whether that... 1179 00:56:22,219 --> 00:56:23,340 Those costs? 1180 00:56:23,340 --> 00:56:24,300 That's coming. 1181 00:56:24,300 --> 00:56:27,300 That's coming in the $100,000 we're asking for. 1182 00:56:27,300 --> 00:56:29,519 That will exceed the $100,000. 1183 00:56:29,519 --> 00:56:35,000 Again, if these inspections come and they're way over this $100,000, we're going to let you know that. 1184 00:56:35,000 --> 00:56:45,400 I mean, we're not going to, you know, going forward, I would think that this board, and I'm just speaking for myself, not the whole board, if it comes in at $400 million, I don't see us buying that. 1185 00:56:45,400 --> 00:56:50,480 And that'll be before the vote, we could cancel the board, we could cancel the town meeting, or... 1186 00:56:50,480 --> 00:56:51,480 Yeah, we could pull all of this stuff out. 1187 00:56:51,480 --> 00:56:52,159 Yeah, that's good. 1188 00:56:52,159 --> 00:56:55,400 That's going to be probably contingent on the inspection as soon as the inspection comes in. 1189 00:56:55,400 --> 00:56:59,000 We have a contingency for the inspection. 1190 00:56:59,000 --> 00:57:13,400 If this comes back and we go, boy, we've got to put all this in there, we don't need, I mean, just by, you know, common sense, we know that a sewer's going to cost in that ballpark, and we know that a well's going to cost this much. 1191 00:57:13,400 --> 00:57:21,280 If they come in and say, oh, look it, you've got a, you know, hazardous waste or something in the building, then that's going to cost $100,000. 1192 00:57:21,280 --> 00:57:22,000 Yes. 1193 00:57:22,000 --> 00:57:25,239 You know, those type of things, we can just say, we're out. 1194 00:57:25,440 --> 00:57:26,679 We don't want to get involved in it. 1195 00:57:26,679 --> 00:57:27,980 And then the meeting would not happen? 1196 00:57:27,980 --> 00:57:29,280 No, that would be it. 1197 00:57:29,320 --> 00:57:30,539 The warrant issue would be trashed? 1198 00:57:30,539 --> 00:57:32,559 No, everything would be in our own void, yep. 1199 00:57:34,059 --> 00:57:35,000 That's what the board would be watching. 1200 00:57:35,000 --> 00:57:37,179 Have you decided what number that is? 1201 00:57:37,260 --> 00:57:48,039 Well, we don't, we know we don't want to go over $100,000 for renovation, so when we get that, if we're not sure, it'll be in the town meeting, and we'll be able to decide that. 1202 00:57:49,000 --> 00:57:50,739 What about those estimates by then? 1203 00:57:50,739 --> 00:57:51,000 Yeah. 1204 00:57:51,000 --> 00:58:03,079 If we weren't sure, say it was $75,000, and we said, well, people, this is what it's going to cost just to renovate it, and it's $75,000 before we put any bells and whistles in this place, what do you think? 1205 00:58:03,139 --> 00:58:03,900 Should we move forward? 1206 00:58:04,280 --> 00:58:05,340 Everybody might go, no. 1207 00:58:06,280 --> 00:58:08,300 So, but will there be multiple bids? 1208 00:58:08,460 --> 00:58:11,719 You know, then you have to go out to a contractor, you have to get multiple bids. 1209 00:58:11,800 --> 00:58:15,920 But multiple bids are not necessary for the numbers at the town hall. 1210 00:58:16,079 --> 00:58:18,880 Multiple bids are for getting a better deal later on. 1211 00:58:19,179 --> 00:58:20,820 You could take, look at it. 1212 00:58:20,820 --> 00:58:27,960 If I buy, if I buy material, Carl wants a job done, and I go, oh, I'm looking up, and my material guy says it's $1,000 for material. 1213 00:58:28,400 --> 00:58:29,699 I tell him, job's $2,000. 1214 00:58:30,260 --> 00:58:31,280 He says, deal. 1215 00:58:31,500 --> 00:58:32,500 Gives me a purchase order. 1216 00:58:32,719 --> 00:58:38,199 Then I go buy, and I ask the next deal guy, and he goes, hey, it's a $700 for the same material. 1217 00:58:38,539 --> 00:58:39,659 I don't go back and tell him. 1218 00:58:40,480 --> 00:58:42,880 That's, that's my due diligence to make money. 1219 00:58:42,960 --> 00:58:46,480 That's what we would do on the, if we got more than one contractor. 1220 00:58:46,699 --> 00:58:50,619 But for town hall, we know that at least one bidder. 1221 00:58:50,619 --> 00:58:54,019 It's going to cost as much, whether high or low, it doesn't matter. 1222 00:58:56,710 --> 00:58:57,150 Correct. 1223 00:58:57,550 --> 00:58:59,030 So all the numbers will be. 1224 00:59:00,250 --> 00:59:04,010 We will get as many numbers as we can by town meeting. 1225 00:59:05,059 --> 00:59:05,260 Right. 1226 00:59:05,659 --> 00:59:09,780 But we, you know, I mean, if we want to get a better deal, that'd be great. 1227 00:59:09,920 --> 00:59:15,039 But the townspeople might say, look it, we get two bids, and one guy goes out of business next year. 1228 00:59:15,179 --> 00:59:15,440 Right. 1229 00:59:15,900 --> 00:59:18,400 So you want to go the high guy, you know. 1230 00:59:18,400 --> 00:59:22,059 Who on the board, you guys are going to take this on? 1231 00:59:22,440 --> 00:59:24,460 This is a lot of work, but if you want to help. 1232 00:59:24,559 --> 00:59:28,960 We're hiring out people right now for these inspections, and then we're going to have to get contractors. 1233 00:59:29,139 --> 00:59:30,400 Well, you already are doing that. 1234 00:59:30,619 --> 00:59:33,000 We have people in mind, too, who are contractors. 1235 00:59:33,559 --> 00:59:35,300 Townspeople, sub-townspeople. 1236 00:59:36,099 --> 00:59:37,500 They're our license insured. 1237 00:59:38,079 --> 00:59:38,559 And we're not. 1238 00:59:38,900 --> 00:59:41,820 Can I hire my son, even though he's probably the best carpenter in town? 1239 00:59:41,880 --> 00:59:42,340 Do we not? 1240 00:59:42,659 --> 00:59:44,159 Can you put it out for bids? 1241 00:59:44,159 --> 00:59:45,739 No, we're not going out for bids. 1242 00:59:45,739 --> 00:59:49,119 I'm thinking we're just going to ask them to come give us an estimate. 1243 00:59:49,380 --> 00:59:50,639 We're not going out for bids. 1244 00:59:50,639 --> 00:59:51,260 No, you don't need to. 1245 00:59:51,260 --> 00:59:51,840 You just need one. 1246 00:59:51,840 --> 00:59:52,420 No, you don't need to. 1247 00:59:52,440 --> 00:59:53,280 Bids for an estimate. 1248 00:59:53,539 --> 00:59:55,340 You just need this general ballpark. 1249 00:59:55,480 --> 00:59:55,639 Right. 1250 00:59:55,900 --> 00:59:59,639 You know, like I said, this is extraordinarily high. 1251 01:00:00,320 --> 01:00:02,679 I think this board would go right back and say, that's it. 1252 01:00:02,840 --> 01:00:04,199 I know I would push for that. 1253 01:00:04,320 --> 01:00:04,739 I'm not going to. 1254 01:00:04,880 --> 01:00:09,420 I don't want to go spend it in a million dollars, like Powell did. 1255 01:00:09,880 --> 01:00:11,920 But they've got a, you know, a lot of building. 1256 01:00:12,340 --> 01:00:12,460 Yeah. 1257 01:00:12,699 --> 01:00:14,219 And that's huge. 1258 01:00:14,219 --> 01:00:16,539 And there's more people to add on to this building at that point. 1259 01:00:16,739 --> 01:00:20,139 Yeah, this building, you know, has what we call good bulbs. 1260 01:00:20,139 --> 01:00:22,019 Now, I've been through that. 1261 01:00:22,440 --> 01:00:26,940 You know, my son has been through it because my son, we went down, we took all the pews 1262 01:00:26,940 --> 01:00:27,280 out of it. 1263 01:00:27,340 --> 01:00:28,420 So we know what it looks like. 1264 01:00:28,920 --> 01:00:30,320 And it's a good building. 1265 01:00:30,440 --> 01:00:31,139 Does it need good? 1266 01:00:31,599 --> 01:00:31,960 Absolutely. 1267 01:00:32,679 --> 01:00:33,039 Absolutely. 1268 01:00:33,480 --> 01:00:35,920 Does it have to get up to 80 feet compliant? 1269 01:00:36,460 --> 01:00:37,940 You know, what does that entail? 1270 01:00:38,320 --> 01:00:38,780 A ramp? 1271 01:00:39,400 --> 01:00:40,500 Or does it entail more? 1272 01:00:40,760 --> 01:00:41,440 You know, bathrooms? 1273 01:00:42,059 --> 01:00:43,219 You know, so we'll look at that. 1274 01:00:43,360 --> 01:00:50,400 If it's open, you know, if it's going to be a, you know, educational system versus, you 1275 01:00:50,400 --> 01:00:51,960 know, a senior center. 1276 01:00:51,960 --> 01:00:56,719 It's a whole different ballgame, you know, but we can look into that down the road, you 1277 01:00:56,719 --> 01:01:03,599 know, third floor condemned at one time, not condemned, but not usable for the second floor. 1278 01:01:03,780 --> 01:01:10,420 The second Bishop said we could not have catechism up there because of the way the rooms were 1279 01:01:10,420 --> 01:01:11,039 set up. 1280 01:01:11,159 --> 01:01:13,380 There was no second fire escape. 1281 01:01:13,900 --> 01:01:15,300 Fire escape comes there. 1282 01:01:15,340 --> 01:01:19,599 So the one set of stairs goes out to the road. 1283 01:01:19,760 --> 01:01:21,960 The other set of stairs brings you down. 1284 01:01:22,019 --> 01:01:23,400 Back into the building. 1285 01:01:24,300 --> 01:01:27,000 And there was no central hallway upstairs. 1286 01:01:27,000 --> 01:01:28,619 The rooms were like real. 1287 01:01:30,159 --> 01:01:34,500 So one of the things that again, when you say in the vision, this is just me again. 1288 01:01:35,079 --> 01:01:42,059 Um, if I was going to renovate this for the town, I would just, you know, put all my energy 1289 01:01:42,059 --> 01:01:48,119 in the downstairs at this time, use the upstairs for storage, for our historical stuff and so on. 1290 01:01:48,519 --> 01:01:50,519 I would go slow. 1291 01:01:50,639 --> 01:01:51,940 Make sure we're going to use it. 1292 01:01:52,000 --> 01:01:56,519 Before we put a lot of money into it and that I'm, I'm thinking downstairs and make some kind of 1293 01:01:56,519 --> 01:01:59,400 center out of it for people with, you know, a social type of thing. 1294 01:01:59,880 --> 01:02:00,960 See if it works. 1295 01:02:01,139 --> 01:02:06,960 If this isn't working, nobody's showing up, no one's using that, you know, is it feasible to keep paying 1296 01:02:06,960 --> 01:02:10,260 for it and put it up for, you know, that's what I'm looking at. 1297 01:02:10,619 --> 01:02:14,719 Why would we go upstairs and start putting in, you know, a whole bunch of office space? 1298 01:02:14,880 --> 01:02:20,519 Maybe we could like have a special office there. 1299 01:02:20,719 --> 01:02:21,900 So you don't have to come in here. 1300 01:02:21,940 --> 01:02:24,139 We could eventually bring the town office. 1301 01:02:24,480 --> 01:02:26,260 You know, I'm not saying we will. 1302 01:02:26,260 --> 01:02:29,820 I'm just saying there might be an office space available upstairs. 1303 01:02:30,119 --> 01:02:35,090 It would be more private and it wouldn't be open to the public, you know, as in a butter. 1304 01:02:35,090 --> 01:02:37,070 And we love the deep problems. 1305 01:02:37,070 --> 01:02:38,389 Is the property going to be surveyed? 1306 01:02:40,139 --> 01:02:47,719 I haven't even, there is no, we, I know there is no survey and we haven't talked about surveying. 1307 01:02:47,719 --> 01:02:51,719 It could have been a survey, if you want to survey yourself. 1308 01:02:52,960 --> 01:03:02,019 Yeah, I was kind of thinking the other way, I can't survey or I'll tell you not to use, I'll give you his name later. 1309 01:03:04,400 --> 01:03:13,480 Laurie, back to the articles, would it make more sense to do article two first, article three, and then go down to purchasing the church building? 1310 01:03:14,500 --> 01:03:15,519 It's kind of sneaky. 1311 01:03:15,519 --> 01:03:16,340 No, what do you think? 1312 01:03:16,340 --> 01:03:19,699 Are you going to vote for Mike to finance something that you haven't agreed to? 1313 01:03:19,699 --> 01:03:21,260 Yeah, I don't think so. 1314 01:03:21,260 --> 01:03:22,920 The order that you have is a good one. 1315 01:03:23,019 --> 01:03:32,800 But first the decision that you're going to go forward with buying it, two to release the money, and three to get it to against. 1316 01:03:33,539 --> 01:03:43,780 It just doesn't, it doesn't make sense, but I guess I've seen it, I thought I saw everything, but it doesn't make sense to power vote to pass this and not pass the budget. 1317 01:03:44,460 --> 01:03:45,719 I mean, it just, to me, I'm not. 1318 01:03:45,719 --> 01:03:47,360 Well, stranger things have happened. 1319 01:03:47,440 --> 01:03:49,460 Right, I thought I saw everything. 1320 01:03:50,460 --> 01:03:52,699 Somebody said we split. 1321 01:03:53,019 --> 01:04:02,400 And divide two and approve three, and give you the bulk of the money and tell you, we want to borrow the other $35,000. 1322 01:04:02,880 --> 01:04:03,099 Yep. 1323 01:04:03,960 --> 01:04:10,780 But that would be a no then, because you don't have, you're not doing the financing. 1324 01:04:11,639 --> 01:04:14,000 No, it's a no, they're not doing financing. 1325 01:04:14,880 --> 01:04:16,860 Add this, read number four. 1326 01:04:17,420 --> 01:04:17,719 Oh. 1327 01:04:18,480 --> 01:04:19,280 That's really hard. 1328 01:04:19,719 --> 01:04:20,679 Are we going to have, okay. 1329 01:04:21,099 --> 01:04:28,269 So number one says that we're voting on. 1330 01:04:28,550 --> 01:04:28,670 Yeah. 1331 01:04:29,070 --> 01:04:31,760 It says we're buying it, it doesn't say how we're financing it at the time. 1332 01:04:31,900 --> 01:04:32,119 Right. 1333 01:04:32,159 --> 01:04:33,099 So it wouldn't be a no. 1334 01:04:33,139 --> 01:04:33,659 Donald Stanford. 1335 01:04:33,659 --> 01:04:45,070 So then the financing, if they did say that, we could add, we could put an amendment in, vote for an amendment to add that, borrow it, correct? 1336 01:04:45,469 --> 01:04:46,730 It's in there, in four. 1337 01:04:47,010 --> 01:04:47,469 Oh, four. 1338 01:04:47,809 --> 01:04:48,730 Yeah, four, in four. 1339 01:04:48,789 --> 01:04:49,889 I pressed it, I didn't read it. 1340 01:04:50,909 --> 01:05:01,070 So Donald, Donald Stanford borrowed a sum that would not exceed $100,000 if article two and three are passed. 1341 01:05:01,070 --> 01:05:01,429 Or. 1342 01:05:01,570 --> 01:05:10,210 Or $288,000 if article two and three are not passed, we could put an amendment in there, or if article two is not passed, it's the difference. 1343 01:05:10,550 --> 01:05:15,409 Then you've got to change the purchase and sale, because it says it's not contingent upon financing. 1344 01:05:16,110 --> 01:05:18,900 Number seven, you've got to change it. 1345 01:05:18,900 --> 01:05:23,340 They don't have to change the purchase and sale if they don't use the contingency. 1346 01:05:23,579 --> 01:05:24,900 The contingency is in there. 1347 01:05:24,920 --> 01:05:29,139 If they then go back and say, hold on, we're going to be, this is. 1348 01:05:29,360 --> 01:05:31,639 The contingency is based on a convoy. 1349 01:05:31,659 --> 01:05:32,380 Hold for all. 1350 01:05:33,280 --> 01:05:34,519 Doesn't say financing. 1351 01:05:34,519 --> 01:05:45,010 There is a number seven in there that says this purchase and sale is not subject to financing, period. 1352 01:05:45,530 --> 01:05:47,349 So if you're going to introduce financing. 1353 01:05:48,769 --> 01:05:50,030 Yeah, number seven. 1354 01:05:50,730 --> 01:05:52,110 In the purchase and sale agreement. 1355 01:05:55,980 --> 01:05:56,980 And it's very clear. 1356 01:05:57,699 --> 01:05:59,579 That's what I was saying in the beginning. 1357 01:05:59,900 --> 01:06:02,519 You signed saying you're not going to finance. 1358 01:06:02,519 --> 01:06:03,239 I think. 1359 01:06:03,639 --> 01:06:04,260 I think. 1360 01:06:05,119 --> 01:06:06,440 Number seven. 1361 01:06:06,440 --> 01:06:20,420 So, so then you would lose your 10,000 if you came back and they could, they could be jerks about it if you came back to them and said, hey, we need to finance and they're like, sorry, you forfeit your your money. 1362 01:06:20,739 --> 01:06:21,239 Yeah. 1363 01:06:23,909 --> 01:06:36,409 So all I have to do is, or all we have to do is call them and say in the first contingency, put all vote voting of the purchase or financing on the purchase. 1364 01:06:36,409 --> 01:06:43,039 Have to be voted upon that come in if, if it voted down, then we can't do it. 1365 01:06:43,039 --> 01:06:44,199 I'm just telling them to change that. 1366 01:06:45,250 --> 01:06:45,989 See the hard part. 1367 01:06:45,989 --> 01:06:56,340 And then you can buy it with cash and own it and then later finance a hundred, but that's just a cookie cutter. 1368 01:06:56,340 --> 01:07:03,019 Two and three are voted down and then, and then you end up financing the whole paper rule. 1369 01:07:04,369 --> 01:07:06,989 Now you've got time to wait for the bank. 1370 01:07:07,369 --> 01:07:09,090 I think the attorney did say something. 1371 01:07:09,130 --> 01:07:19,280 About financing in the, so we can just go back and change number seven to is instead of is not, and then we'll, we'll be covered. 1372 01:07:19,280 --> 01:07:19,760 Correct. 1373 01:07:19,760 --> 01:07:20,260 Right. 1374 01:07:20,260 --> 01:07:26,179 And, but when I brought that up, you said, no, we can't, because you're trying to get it. 1375 01:07:26,179 --> 01:07:32,969 I mean, it's a catch 22 because you're trying to, you, you want it to be cash. 1376 01:07:32,969 --> 01:07:34,769 You want to use our rainy day, right? 1377 01:07:35,010 --> 01:07:36,989 So what did they have to do with number seven? 1378 01:07:37,190 --> 01:07:40,409 Because now you're saying if one or two. 1379 01:07:40,409 --> 01:07:53,070 And three or one of two and three doesn't go through, you're throwing that financing contingency into the mix, which I'm looking at the contingency of saying the pound voters voting. 1380 01:07:53,070 --> 01:07:55,110 No, I would talk to the, okay. 1381 01:07:55,110 --> 01:08:01,710 So what I would do, well, I don't think you need to, I think you just need to tell us the church to put in the contingency. 1382 01:08:01,889 --> 01:08:09,750 If any of the voting goes, no, whether it's the financing or the purchase. 1383 01:08:09,750 --> 01:08:10,349 Use the. 1384 01:08:10,409 --> 01:08:11,250 It's over. 1385 01:08:11,349 --> 01:08:11,789 Yeah. 1386 01:08:12,650 --> 01:08:18,569 Townspeople vote no, which again, I don't see why you would vote yes and not finance it. 1387 01:08:19,630 --> 01:08:23,090 So maybe you don't want that article for the way it's written. 1388 01:08:23,090 --> 01:08:30,800 You just want to borrow a hundred thousand later after you buy it and not have the second half of the article. 1389 01:08:30,899 --> 01:08:32,539 It should have been, it should have been written. 1390 01:08:32,539 --> 01:08:35,600 There should be another one. 1391 01:08:35,600 --> 01:08:36,140 Two and three. 1392 01:08:36,140 --> 01:08:37,039 All in one article. 1393 01:08:37,539 --> 01:08:41,699 Oh, don't you can define. 1394 01:08:41,720 --> 01:08:58,279 If you define financing and say financing means borrowing, borrowing from yourself, then you'd be covered and just not fill in the percentage rates and everything. 1395 01:08:58,460 --> 01:08:59,960 But you really need to define that. 1396 01:09:00,079 --> 01:09:03,029 If you're going to put that in, I don't know. 1397 01:09:03,109 --> 01:09:07,949 I, when I write these things, I get, I don't just fill that little box. 1398 01:09:07,949 --> 01:09:12,319 It's many pages because you really need to protect yourself. 1399 01:09:12,539 --> 01:09:13,039 I'm not. 1400 01:09:13,180 --> 01:09:15,060 It's the, it's the Catholic church. 1401 01:09:15,140 --> 01:09:20,260 I'm sure they're going to not do anything, but you clearly weren't raised in that. 1402 01:09:20,539 --> 01:09:22,180 No, I was. 1403 01:09:22,460 --> 01:09:23,119 I was not. 1404 01:09:25,489 --> 01:09:26,350 Just kidding. 1405 01:09:26,609 --> 01:09:29,229 I'm not defending their financial status. 1406 01:09:31,600 --> 01:09:38,539 So do you want me to go back to the attorney and have him put that number seven there? 1407 01:09:38,539 --> 01:09:39,819 I would just ask him. 1408 01:09:40,119 --> 01:09:43,640 But I mean, I think you can go back to the church to tell him. 1409 01:09:43,640 --> 01:09:55,880 This is what we're doing to give us a couple of minutes, you know, a couple of days to make sure we do that, you know, don't like they said, don't add anything you want for that contract, pretty much anything, except that they won't finance it for you. 1410 01:09:57,239 --> 01:09:57,899 They're broke. 1411 01:09:58,880 --> 01:09:59,920 They need the money. 1412 01:10:00,180 --> 01:10:00,960 They need the money. 1413 01:10:02,479 --> 01:10:03,739 The church is not broke. 1414 01:10:03,899 --> 01:10:04,680 The diocese is broke. 1415 01:10:04,979 --> 01:10:05,180 Yes. 1416 01:10:05,260 --> 01:10:06,060 Let's get that straight. 1417 01:10:06,239 --> 01:10:08,920 This goes, all this money goes right into the church, not the diocese. 1418 01:10:08,920 --> 01:10:09,800 Okay, good. 1419 01:10:12,260 --> 01:10:13,939 So we're agreeable with that. 1420 01:10:14,380 --> 01:10:15,539 One, two, and three. 1421 01:10:16,140 --> 01:10:17,579 Four, what are we doing with four? 1422 01:10:19,739 --> 01:10:20,659 Call it five. 1423 01:10:22,520 --> 01:10:24,199 Come on, that's a little funny. 1424 01:10:25,649 --> 01:10:26,989 You got a couple last. 1425 01:10:27,090 --> 01:10:27,909 A couple, yeah. 1426 01:10:28,250 --> 01:10:29,069 Is this my time? 1427 01:10:30,079 --> 01:10:31,100 Are we doing four? 1428 01:10:32,149 --> 01:10:33,289 Yes, we got to do four. 1429 01:10:33,289 --> 01:10:33,430 Sure. 1430 01:10:33,810 --> 01:10:34,569 We got to do four. 1431 01:10:34,569 --> 01:10:35,189 Got to have money. 1432 01:10:35,810 --> 01:10:37,289 Find the money before we can buy it. 1433 01:10:37,409 --> 01:10:38,329 100,000. 1434 01:10:38,550 --> 01:10:41,189 Just gives the option. 1435 01:10:41,729 --> 01:10:42,010 Yeah. 1436 01:10:42,449 --> 01:10:43,069 Gives the option. 1437 01:10:43,069 --> 01:10:44,609 We can go out and do four. 1438 01:10:44,710 --> 01:10:44,989 All right. 1439 01:10:45,050 --> 01:10:46,430 We're doing three or past. 1440 01:10:47,529 --> 01:10:48,750 We're 288. 1441 01:10:48,750 --> 01:10:53,229 288, if Article 2 and 3 are not passed. 1442 01:10:53,789 --> 01:10:57,970 So Article 2 and 3, what do they add up to? 1443 01:10:59,020 --> 01:11:01,119 They don't add up to 288? 1444 01:11:01,500 --> 01:11:02,380 187,000. 1445 01:11:02,579 --> 01:11:03,380 No, 6-0. 1446 01:11:03,800 --> 01:11:04,319 187. 1447 01:11:06,250 --> 01:11:07,010 187 what? 1448 01:11:07,229 --> 01:11:08,050 6-6-0. 1449 01:11:08,609 --> 01:11:09,130 188. 1450 01:11:09,510 --> 01:11:09,989 What's 100? 1451 01:11:10,329 --> 01:11:10,770 4,000 dollars. 1452 01:11:10,770 --> 01:11:11,289 288. 1453 01:11:12,680 --> 01:11:16,020 100,000 and 187 is 287. 1454 01:11:16,279 --> 01:11:17,279 We're calling it 288. 1455 01:11:18,420 --> 01:11:20,180 We're 1,000 dollars off. 1456 01:11:20,239 --> 01:11:21,039 Who did this math? 1457 01:11:21,340 --> 01:11:21,819 Me. 1458 01:11:22,319 --> 01:11:22,560 Yeah. 1459 01:11:22,760 --> 01:11:23,380 Who did this math? 1460 01:11:25,039 --> 01:11:26,340 What number do you want? 1461 01:11:26,460 --> 01:11:30,760 It doesn't include the inspection that you said was going to be paid for separately anyway. 1462 01:11:30,960 --> 01:11:31,439 Right. 1463 01:11:31,920 --> 01:11:33,640 So that's how we want it all. 1464 01:11:34,520 --> 01:11:35,039 Okay. 1465 01:11:35,520 --> 01:11:36,420 Do you want to include that? 1466 01:11:36,439 --> 01:11:37,340 I don't imagine we can. 1467 01:11:37,899 --> 01:11:39,520 Well, the 100,000. 1468 01:11:40,060 --> 01:11:41,060 We'll cover it. 1469 01:11:41,300 --> 01:11:41,479 Yeah. 1470 01:11:41,600 --> 01:11:44,739 The 100,000 is going to cover that inspection anyway. 1471 01:11:44,920 --> 01:11:47,560 So that's our first 1,000 dollars going to that. 1472 01:11:51,970 --> 01:11:52,989 We'll pass. 1473 01:11:52,989 --> 01:11:53,270 Okay. 1474 01:11:53,869 --> 01:11:54,529 288. 1475 01:11:55,069 --> 01:12:00,069 So borrowing 100,000 is probably a rather easy thing to do within a five-year period. 1476 01:12:01,069 --> 01:12:01,569 Right. 1477 01:12:01,569 --> 01:12:08,420 But if you're looking at 288, do you want to try and keep it within five years? 1478 01:12:08,420 --> 01:12:12,420 Because that'll be a higher payment, but then you're going to have to go bonding, which 1479 01:12:12,420 --> 01:12:14,420 changes the whole wording of all of this. 1480 01:12:14,420 --> 01:12:16,739 All meaning everything. 1481 01:12:16,739 --> 01:12:23,060 It becomes not a town meeting vote, but an Australian ballot vote. 1482 01:12:23,060 --> 01:12:26,220 Which person wants it to be? 1483 01:12:26,220 --> 01:12:32,720 Not a paper ballot during a town meeting night, but an actual printed ballot. 1484 01:12:32,720 --> 01:12:33,720 Printed ballot. 1485 01:12:33,720 --> 01:12:34,720 Printed ballot. 1486 01:12:34,720 --> 01:12:35,720 Why are we putting the... 1487 01:12:35,720 --> 01:12:36,720 If we're... 1488 01:12:36,720 --> 01:12:37,720 As a board, we just voted it... 1489 01:12:37,720 --> 01:12:43,720 As a board, now, this board here, we just voted in article two and three, to be honest. 1490 01:12:43,720 --> 01:12:45,720 Why are we putting in the... 1491 01:12:45,720 --> 01:12:50,960 Because you're going to want to borrow 100,000 for renovations. 1492 01:12:50,960 --> 01:12:51,960 Or the 200,000. 1493 01:12:51,960 --> 01:12:52,960 Right. 1494 01:12:52,960 --> 01:12:53,960 But let's take that 200,000. 1495 01:12:53,960 --> 01:12:54,960 Right. 1496 01:12:54,960 --> 01:12:55,960 This is just an article three. 1497 01:12:55,960 --> 01:12:56,960 Right. 1498 01:12:56,960 --> 01:12:57,960 This is just an article four to borrow the money. 1499 01:12:57,960 --> 01:12:58,960 Yeah, so you want to borrow 100,000 not to... 1500 01:12:58,960 --> 01:12:59,960 This whole thing... 1501 01:12:59,960 --> 01:13:00,960 To lay out again, this whole thing should pass or not pass. 1502 01:13:00,960 --> 01:13:01,960 You shouldn't be handpicking at it. 1503 01:13:01,960 --> 01:13:02,960 So it should say, if it passes, it should be borrowed 100,000 for renovations. 1504 01:13:02,960 --> 01:13:03,960 Right. 1505 01:13:03,960 --> 01:13:04,960 But these two... 1506 01:13:04,960 --> 01:13:05,960 Article two and three must pass, so I would go forward. 1507 01:13:05,960 --> 01:13:06,960 Yeah, if two and three doesn't pass, four doesn't matter. 1508 01:13:06,960 --> 01:13:07,960 Yeah. 1509 01:13:07,960 --> 01:13:08,960 So... 1510 01:13:08,960 --> 01:13:09,960 So we get rid of the 288? 1511 01:13:09,960 --> 01:13:10,960 So the town of Stamford borrows some not to exceed $100,000... 1512 01:13:10,960 --> 01:13:11,960 If our... 1513 01:13:11,960 --> 01:13:12,960 If our... 1514 01:13:12,960 --> 01:13:13,960 If our... 1515 01:13:13,960 --> 01:13:14,960 If our... 1516 01:13:14,960 --> 01:13:15,960 If our... 1517 01:13:15,960

01:13:25,319 --> 01:13:26,319 If our... 1527 01:13:26,319 --> 01:13:27,319 If our... 1528 01:13:27,319 --> 01:13:28,319 If our... 1529 01:13:28,319 --> 01:13:29,319 If our... 1530 01:13:29,319 --> 01:13:30,319 If our... 1531 01:13:30,319 --> 01:13:31,319 If our... 1532 01:13:31,319 --> 01:13:32,319 If our... 1533 01:13:32,319 --> 01:13:33,319 If our... 1534 01:13:33,319 --> 01:13:34,319 If our... 1535 01:13:34,319 --> 01:13:35,319 If our... 1536 01:13:35,319 --> 01:13:36,319 If our... 1537 01:13:36,319 --> 01:13:37,319 If our... 1538 01:13:37,319 --> 01:13:38,319 If our... 1539 01:13:38,319 --> 01:13:39,319 If our... 1540 01:13:39,319 --> 01:13:40,319 If our... 1541 01:13:40,319 --> 01:13:41,319 If our... 1542 01:13:41,319 --> 01:13:42,319 If our... 1543 01:13:42,319 --> 01:13:43,319 If our... 1544 01:13:43,319 --> 01:13:44,319 If our... 1545 01:13:44,319 --> 01:13:45,319 If our... 1546 01:13:45,319 --> 01:13:46,319 If our... 1547 01:13:46,319 --> 01:13:47,319 If

01:13:51,319 --> 01:13:52,319 If our... 1553 01:13:52,319 --> 01:13:58,729 then we wouldn't have capital expense in our australian ballot um that's where that well 1554 01:13:58,729 --> 01:14:03,289 the abusing article is i used to take that out then we don't have to worry about that just leave 1555 01:14:03,289 --> 01:14:12,569 it like that don't even put four in no no just not for that 100 grand just the other two improvements 1556 01:14:12,569 --> 01:14:20,250 are assets oh more than five years of procedure yeah fine but we know we can go five years with 1557 01:14:20,250 --> 01:14:27,470 a hundred thousand that's how do you do that three thousand for every three hundred fifty 1558 01:14:27,470 --> 01:14:33,930 thousand on your bag it's forty thousand or forty dollars how long do you think you might know for 1559 01:14:33,930 --> 01:14:39,689 grants in this village central district you may never need the four hundred thousand i'm wondering 1560 01:14:39,689 --> 01:14:46,170 if i gotta call i gotta make the call if you just did one two and three in the past you buy the 1561 01:14:46,170 --> 01:14:51,840 building yeah now we have an honor town meeting in march that's what i was thinking you could 1562 01:14:51,920 --> 01:14:58,399 at that point have more information on grants or donations or other fundraising but we will 1563 01:14:58,399 --> 01:15:06,670 but we will go over budget on keeping the church uh heated in electricity i don't know how much 1564 01:15:06,670 --> 01:15:12,670 but we will go over budget and i think that when we did the sales agreement to it said if there is 1565 01:15:12,670 --> 01:15:19,310 oil then we have to buy that now yeah so that you know that monies we have to i mean i think 1566 01:15:19,310 --> 01:15:21,310 we have enough money to buy their first tank but 1567 01:15:21,949 --> 01:15:26,350 afterwards how many tanks will we use i don't know it's just i'm just saying you haven't been 1568 01:15:26,350 --> 01:15:31,869 here in january yeah yeah really next year so we have three months of next year's money 1569 01:15:33,229 --> 01:15:39,630 yeah and you turn the temperature down in here throughout the building yeah a degree and you 1570 01:15:39,630 --> 01:15:45,869 can start using that you're right yes i am you're right put a sweater on i have no problem with that 1571 01:15:45,869 --> 01:15:52,939 i know that the church has no problem with that that's right put a sweater on i know when we go 1572 01:15:53,579 --> 01:15:59,739 sweaters on because it's cold and the seats are cold nobody wants to move over because it takes 1573 01:15:59,739 --> 01:16:04,939 10 hours to heat the fuse up and we're over there now or something yeah not worth it no you know 1574 01:16:06,060 --> 01:16:12,300 okay so we agree on article one two and three we're not doing four we have to do five 1575 01:16:14,840 --> 01:16:23,000 okay oh we already made a motion for one two and three anyway but in but in march you want to make 1576 01:16:23,000 --> 01:16:26,109 you want to put it on for renovations which one 1577 01:16:26,430 --> 01:16:32,750 yeah well i think we will you'll have a lot more information then sure and if like i said if the 1578 01:16:32,750 --> 01:16:37,960 inspection comes back and it's crazy that information will be at the first of the special 1579 01:16:37,960 --> 01:16:43,609 time meeting and you guys will say oh we're not spending that or we might do that before it gets 1580 01:16:44,170 --> 01:16:51,609 you know i just personally as a board member if i see this numbers going over way over crazy numbers 1581 01:16:51,609 --> 01:16:59,319 i'm going to make that be careful money it doesn't make sense y'all well i'm only one guy 1582 01:16:59,399 --> 01:17:08,119 if you don't vote the renovation money then you're handcuffing the voters to have to pass 1583 01:17:08,119 --> 01:17:13,399 that mark because now we own the building you're right and we can't do anything with it yep you're 1584 01:17:13,399 --> 01:17:19,920 right so then we might as well sell the building if they don't want to renovate it why do we have 1585 01:17:19,920 --> 01:17:24,640 a building that's well i'm wondering no but you're right these are going to be harder to pass 1586 01:17:24,640 --> 01:17:30,159 at the special meetings with people thinking ahead we may end with a building that we can't 1587 01:17:30,399 --> 01:17:38,000 renovate we can't spend we can't we can't afford to renovate yeah or contrarily when march vote 1588 01:17:38,000 --> 01:17:44,960 comes they vote not the town votes not to invest more money into building that's what i'm saying 1589 01:17:54,729 --> 01:18:00,000 but that being said if you know if we think it's feasible 1590 01:18:00,720 --> 01:18:06,399 we have to put it up for sale or a waste of time and money it's great so i i agree i mean i think 1591 01:18:06,399 --> 01:18:11,119 i don't see why we won't put the hundred thousand it doesn't doesn't say borrow it says not going to 1592 01:18:11,119 --> 01:18:16,479 see that you know i mean it's not like we're going to spend it if we don't need to but just have that 1593 01:18:16,479 --> 01:18:21,760 money just in case like you said we might have to you know winterize it or put over the you know 1594 01:18:21,760 --> 01:18:26,800 put some windows in or cover the heat you know we could lower that down to 50 000 just to get 1595 01:18:26,800 --> 01:18:30,720 us to march i looked at it again as optics i i think people are going to feel like they're going 1596 01:18:30,720 --> 01:18:35,359 handcuffed i do i agree with you yeah yeah geez we bought a building but we didn't that's a good 1597 01:18:35,359 --> 01:18:41,470 point now we're going to have to pay more money to renovate do you want to do you think that it's 1598 01:18:41,470 --> 01:18:45,550 well not to exceed this not to exceed i mean i don't really care if it's a hundred thousand or 1599 01:18:45,550 --> 01:18:51,470 fifty dollars to me i think the board is fiscally responsible enough not to spend money we don't 1600 01:18:51,470 --> 01:18:56,510 need it of course you know so i i don't think that the number the hundred thousand is scary at all 1601 01:18:57,710 --> 01:19:00,670 but we're not going to go asking the bank for it until we 1602 01:19:01,229 --> 01:19:06,350 know what we need you know once we get that inspection and know it we can say okay you know 1603 01:19:06,350 --> 01:19:11,789 we might look and say like bill said we can wait until after the first year to release a new budget 1604 01:19:13,340 --> 01:19:18,939 do other things and we're open to any donations from everybody but it might cost us 1605 01:19:21,100 --> 01:19:23,260 you know throughout the you know heat and everything 1606 01:19:26,380 --> 01:19:30,699 i mean i would assume that our highway guy would plow it but that's some of the expense 1607 01:19:31,260 --> 01:19:36,859 out you know same thing with mowing it's the same guy that was here maybe we can get a better deal 1608 01:19:36,859 --> 01:19:42,859 than him i think he knows that he does all right so you can get a good deal on cheap time what's 1609 01:19:42,859 --> 01:19:47,899 that and get you a good deal on cheap i think that's a lot i think that's a great idea i thought 1610 01:19:47,899 --> 01:19:52,539 you were putting them over there i thought you were putting them over there not voluntarily 1611 01:19:52,539 --> 01:19:57,739 my daughter's been asking to and i kept saying it yeah it's not as a property 1612 01:19:59,420 --> 01:19:59,739 yeah yeah 1613 01:20:01,100 --> 01:20:06,140 yeah you might have it down you might have it in now oh that's her business 1614 01:20:07,819 --> 01:20:15,020 carolyn i'm just um interested in the info how the information gets out to the population before 1615 01:20:15,020 --> 01:20:21,260 november 25th because you know people this is a great meeting and we're we're hashing out all 1616 01:20:21,260 --> 01:20:27,020 the issues i don't see a lot of people showing up at select board meetings the wonder of a document 1617 01:20:27,020 --> 01:20:30,539 could be put together once you have a rough out of the numbers 1618 01:20:31,100 --> 01:20:41,020 and kurt is um got all these grants it's worth mentioning that the bcrc has you know 1619 01:20:41,899 --> 01:20:49,100 has a lot of money we voted on the town i mean just educating people to the fact that in fact 1620 01:20:49,739 --> 01:20:55,260 there could be money to help renovate this building i mean i think that we could we could 1621 01:20:55,260 --> 01:21:00,220 you know do a mail or if we want but i also think we could just put it on you know we could also put 1622 01:21:01,100 --> 01:21:07,659 it on the website well you know it's it's funny because a lot of people say geez without the 1623 01:21:07,659 --> 01:21:12,619 website i wouldn't know what's going on and see the minutes and all that so i don't know i think 1624 01:21:12,619 --> 01:21:19,739 it's important enough that you do a multi-pronged shirt and um you do a mailer where do people 1625 01:21:21,100 --> 01:21:24,140 do our due diligence and still have everyone to show up yeah 1626 01:21:27,100 --> 01:21:28,619 everybody can come to the meeting 1627 01:21:28,619 --> 01:21:30,939 no but right now you think that it's worth it 1628 01:21:31,100 --> 01:21:36,779 document that sort of spells out what we've talked about here and the fact that there might 1629 01:21:36,779 --> 01:21:43,180 be help you know what you said too is you know people don't go to a slug war meeting so there's 1630 01:21:43,180 --> 01:21:50,279 probably about 500 more people tonight than there usually is right so it must be an important issue 1631 01:21:50,279 --> 01:21:55,560 right because people don't go to meetings until it's an important issue right so if this is that 1632 01:21:55,560 --> 01:21:59,720 important we're going to have other meetings how many people are watching those meetings too 1633 01:22:00,359 --> 01:22:01,239 judd how many people are 1634 01:22:01,319 --> 01:22:06,920 watching well they come by the way something goes on but it's usually about 35 to 40. sorry 1635 01:22:06,920 --> 01:22:14,319 55 to 40. 35 to 40. okay i would tell you if the agendas were more detailed i think you'd have 1636 01:22:14,319 --> 01:22:24,590 better time lori had a comment they they have to send notice to the voters either by publication or 1637 01:22:24,590 --> 01:22:30,510 a mailing to registered voters so if they put together a mailing with a letter that had all this 1638 01:22:31,710 --> 01:22:35,789 information in it they would be able to send it to the voters and the voters would receive it 1639 01:22:35,789 --> 01:22:40,989 before that november 20th meeting and the mail is in pretty good shape we did discuss that at 1640 01:22:40,989 --> 01:22:46,909 one of the select board meetings that 10 days before the town meeting it has to go out with 1641 01:22:46,909 --> 01:22:52,270 a warning in the warrant article there and put some information in it's going to cost 1642 01:22:52,270 --> 01:22:57,149 there's this much this much this much there is definitely multiple um like paul said there's 1643 01:22:57,149 --> 01:23:01,550 multiple communication systems out there uh you know everybody laughs but facebook hits a lot of 1644 01:23:01,710 --> 01:23:08,109 hits on those those uh sites that are up and people probably spread the word it's a lot better 1645 01:23:08,109 --> 01:23:14,109 than it was 10 years ago 10 years ago you know we've posted out here to go on so yeah it's a lot 1646 01:23:14,109 --> 01:23:22,270 better news the website's helping yes it has i think if you use every avenue you got yep and 1647 01:23:22,270 --> 01:23:28,350 again i would like to see and cj i also agree with you on that the agenda it shouldn't just 1648 01:23:28,350 --> 01:23:31,550 say roads if there's something going on with the roads we should put it in a detail 1649 01:23:31,710 --> 01:23:37,310 that says we're talking about lincoln road project or we're talking and sometimes we you know we are 1650 01:23:37,310 --> 01:23:41,789 a little vague on the agendas um sometimes we don't know what's going to happen until we get here 1651 01:23:42,510 --> 01:23:47,710 many times but there are a lot of times where i read the minutes and i said oh i would have liked 1652 01:23:47,710 --> 01:23:53,949 to have gone to that yeah yeah so you know maybe we can especially with this issue you know put 1653 01:23:53,949 --> 01:24:01,229 this on if a matter of fact i would like to have it on every agenda until the town meeting have it 1654 01:24:01,710 --> 01:24:07,390 on that there will be a discussion even if there's no news even if it's just an update right so an 1655 01:24:07,390 --> 01:24:14,189 update of the of the purchase of the bill yeah we don't have the report yet so yeah it'll be on every 1656 01:24:14,189 --> 01:24:19,310 agenda now so if people want to come and at least just hear it or send your representative you know 1657 01:24:19,310 --> 01:24:24,189 if marta wants to come and she's got 12 friends that she can call and say hey this is what they 1658 01:24:24,189 --> 01:24:30,750 told us you know so you know not everybody would have to go that way but i think that should be on 1659 01:24:32,029 --> 01:24:40,810 that's it so you back no we didn't do four yet i would like to do the hundred thousand i would like 1660 01:24:40,810 --> 01:24:45,529 to stop because i have any discussion you know not to exceed a hundred thousand for a five-year 1661 01:24:45,529 --> 01:24:50,329 period i think it's clear that if i you're going to expect that yep yep so i'll take all that out 1662 01:24:50,329 --> 01:24:56,600 and i'd like to make a motion to that all in favor yes all right so you're not going to say 1663 01:24:56,600 --> 01:25:02,600 if articles two is very fast right a hundred thousand i think you could you could say yeah 1664 01:25:02,760 --> 01:25:07,399 because if you don't pass it we don't know we don't have the finances we'll get to the 1665 01:25:08,359 --> 01:25:11,720 the finance department to and change that word 1666 01:25:16,680 --> 01:25:25,819 okay um laurie if you would take this up and we can sign it um any other

01:29:53,430 --> 01:29:53,909 Now. 1748 01:29:54,109 --> 01:29:55,229 Here's the other thing. 1749 01:29:55,770 --> 01:29:57,729 We're going to get the inspection report. 1750 01:29:58,470 --> 01:30:00,310 Kurt's going to look into grants. 1751 01:30:02,149 --> 01:30:08,869 I'm going to ask Lori if she could call VLCT and see how much it would cost to insure that building. 1752 01:30:11,250 --> 01:30:11,729 Lori? 1753 01:30:12,289 --> 01:30:12,430 Yeah. 1754 01:30:12,430 --> 01:30:16,390 You can call VLCT and ask them how much it would cost to insure the building. 1755 01:30:17,270 --> 01:30:18,329 We'll need that. 1756 01:30:20,420 --> 01:30:20,899 Do. 1757 01:30:22,409 --> 01:30:25,130 Could you get the oil cost for last winter? 1758 01:30:25,810 --> 01:30:26,029 Yeah. 1759

1763 01:30:31,579 --> 01:30:33,039 Yeah, because when do you ever shut down? 1764 01:30:34,250 --> 01:30:36,949 Last October, I believe. 1765 01:30:36,949 --> 01:30:39,449 It was last October or was it in the spring? 1766 01:30:39,930 --> 01:30:41,149 No, it was October. 1767 01:30:41,149 --> 01:30:41,750 October? 1768 01:30:41,750 --> 01:30:41,949 Yeah. 1769 01:30:41,949 --> 01:30:43,350 Okay,

01:30:47,649 I think it's actually more. 1773 01:30:47,649 --> 01:30:50,489 If you can get this year, I can get the year before. 1774 01:30:50,489 --> 01:30:51,189 Okay, yeah. 1775 01:30:51,189 --> 01:30:52,630 Because I think we were in business then. 1776 01:30:52,729 --> 01:30:54,550 Okay, yeah, that's probably the best one. 1777 01:30:54,829 --> 01:30:55,550 Yeah, okay. 1778 01:30:55,550 --> 01:30:57,090 Where we were actually functioning. 1779 01:30:57,090 --> 01:30:57,310 Yeah. 1780 01:30:57,310 --> 01:30:58,310 So we're going to have to get the electric. 1781 01:30:58,310 --> 01:30:59,310 Turn it up and down. 1782 01:30:59,310 --> 01:31:00,310 Electric was warm too. 1783 01:31:00,310 --> 01:31:01,310 Yeah, but it's been down to nothing. 1784 01:31:01,310 --> 01:31:02,310 Just enough sort of pipes all. 1785 01:31:02,310 --> 01:31:03,310 Electricity would be much. 1786 01:31:03,310 --> 01:31:04,310 You can get the mowing because that's the same. 1787 01:31:04,310 --> 01:31:05,310 Yep. 1788 01:31:05,310 --> 01:31:06,310 Electric would be this. 1789 01:31:06,310 --> 01:31:07,310 I mean electric. 1790 01:31:07,310 --> 01:31:08,310 That's minor. 1791 01:31:08,310 --> 01:31:09,310 That would be about the same. 1792 01:31:09,310 --> 01:31:10,310 60, 70 bucks a year. 1793 01:31:10,310 --> 01:31:11,310 Yeah. 1794 01:31:11,310 --> 01:31:12,310 Nobody's out of their right. 1795 01:31:12,310 --> 01:31:13,310 So we need to hire someone. 1796 01:31:13,310 --> 01:31:14,310 The lights are shut off. 1797 01:31:14,310 --> 01:31:15,310 You turn them on. 1798 01:31:15,310 --> 01:31:16,310 Yeah. 1799 01:31:16,310 --> 01:31:17,310 The lights are across. 1800 01:31:17,310 --> 01:31:18,310 It's not just. 1801 01:31:18,310 --> 01:31:19,920 It's not just. 1802 01:31:19,920 --> 01:31:20,920 Yeah. 1803 01:31:20,920 --> 01:31:21,920 It's not just. 1804 01:31:21,920 --> 01:31:22,920 It's not just. 1805 01:31:22,920 --> 01:31:23,920 It's not just. 1806 01:31:23,920 --> 01:31:24,920 It's not just. 1807 01:31:24,920 --> 01:31:25,920 It's not just. 1808 01:31:25,920 --> 01:31:26,920 Yeah. 1809 01:31:26,920 --> 01:31:27,920 Yeah. 1810 01:31:27,920 --> 01:31:35,619 So we need to hire someone or talk to someone because they said the realtor said we could 1811 01:31:35,619 --> 01:31:41,699 get anybody to come in to give us a price on how much to upgrade the electric, if it 1812 01:31:41,699 --> 01:31:42,699 needs upgrading. 1813 01:31:42,699 --> 01:31:43,699 Sure. 1814 01:31:43,699 --> 01:31:45,560 So do we know anybody we want to use for carpentry, electric? 1815 01:31:45,560 --> 01:31:46,460 Well I did mention Mike Senkel because he's in town. 1816 01:31:46,460 --> 01:31:51,539 I think he would be good. 1817 01:31:51,539 --> 01:31:57,260 And I don't know if he can do electrical or not. 1818 01:31:57,260 --> 01:31:58,260 He can. 1819 01:31:58,260 --> 01:32:06,100 one or two of the guys live here in town i don't know if they do this kind of stuff 1820 01:32:07,300 --> 01:32:11,300 they've been good with us yeah i mean the way i look at it is if you can get one guy 1821 01:32:11,300 --> 01:32:16,420 and move all that would be awesome you don't have to get up i'm just getting ahead do you uh 1822 01:32:16,420 --> 01:32:22,739 do you want to anybody want to call uh seneca and ask him if he can do these three things 1823 01:32:22,739 --> 01:32:29,050 yeah so what three things carpentry electric plumbing 1824 01:32:44,779 --> 01:32:50,140 so mike said i'm gonna call the carpentry and electric and my new 1825 01:32:53,260 --> 01:32:58,460 clothes 1826 01:33:09,020 --> 01:33:11,420 can jim williams do plumbing and water he does 1827 01:33:13,260 --> 01:33:18,859 he doesn't do water i think he says yeah yeah yeah yeah for me 1828 01:33:20,300 --> 01:33:22,460 yep okay i know that 1829 01:33:23,260 --> 01:33:29,739 though i know that does not do sewers right mike wall would have his license by spring 1830 01:33:29,739 --> 01:33:36,539 to burger lab to do something septics okay who's that mike up on my road yeah oh i know 1831 01:33:36,539 --> 01:33:42,380 i've been in contact with him for our neighbor okay so thanks depending on the inspection right 1832 01:33:43,260 --> 01:33:48,140 or you want to just wait i think we should wait we don't have it yeah we gotta wait until you 1833 01:33:48,140 --> 01:33:52,539 get the inspection i mean i don't see that not passing the manager i think that'll pass i mean 1834 01:33:53,260 --> 01:33:56,380 that's there's nothing not letting it grow how much use did we get well 1835 01:34:00,539 --> 01:34:05,500 and i don't see it nothing because of that scene the last time i was pumped and i give you 1836 01:34:05,500 --> 01:34:10,859 my computer and you know even if we can turn this into a scent of salmon trying to be used 1837 01:34:10,859 --> 01:34:15,100 like people think that would be like a house i don't think it was ever a residency a lot less 1838 01:34:15,100 --> 01:34:19,100 than the average house you know that's where you're being media telling me how the first years 1839 01:34:20,460 --> 01:34:23,539 yeah i don't think it was ever pumped oh 1840 01:34:23,699 --> 01:34:28,260 maybe not how much no i wasn't involved in bosco i don't i don't know 1841 01:34:31,140 --> 01:34:37,460 yeah i mean i i know some of the financing but i wasn't involved in any of the everyday stuff 1842 01:34:40,229 --> 01:34:46,789 so if they say they'll do it we're just getting yes as i know is we're not setting up times or are 1843 01:34:46,789 --> 01:34:53,270 we setting up time i think we should well i i don't think we should do times um necessarily for 1844 01:34:53,270 --> 01:34:54,069 the sewer 1845 01:34:54,789 --> 01:34:59,270 but maybe uh no but like the carpentry electric plumbing water heating i mean i don't know how 1846 01:34:59,270 --> 01:35:04,710 the carpenter's gonna give you any numbers because what are we doing what are we doing 1847 01:35:06,229 --> 01:35:10,710 yeah we don't know i don't think we have to worry about that we need electrical plumbing heating 1848 01:35:12,789 --> 01:35:14,229 flux 1849 01:35:22,229 --> 01:35:24,550 on it could have caught you know it's gonna take a 1850 01:35:25,189 --> 01:35:27,670 week to do that okay with water 1851 01:35:32,869 --> 01:35:39,909 if we generate if we estimate say thirty thousand for each that gives us ten thousand for under a 1852 01:35:39,909 --> 01:35:45,750 hundred thousand dollar apartment yeah yeah so thirty thousand for electric thirty thousand yes 1853 01:35:47,430 --> 01:35:49,909 really and then we might ask for something seriously 1854 01:35:49,909 --> 01:35:53,750 we're gonna be able to steal or something from i was gonna say just downstairs 1855 01:35:54,789 --> 01:36:01,670 that downstairs put the upstairs on a separate uh box and meter not a meter but a page one page 1856 01:36:01,670 --> 01:36:07,989 yeah right we could generate money afterwards with the center you know if we have if it becomes a 1857 01:36:07,989 --> 01:36:14,630 center that's multiple uses you can do a fundraising sure there's a lot of options is it a potential 1858 01:36:14,630 --> 01:36:19,430 at some point maybe there could be a solar field in there well someone talked to me about that and 1859 01:36:19,430 --> 01:36:24,470 they said if you put a solar field in it will literally pay for your electricity arrested yeah 1860 01:36:25,350 --> 01:36:31,829 so kind of electricity there would be really cheap right oh yeah 1861 01:36:37,189 --> 01:36:42,069 the roof's gotta solve the roof yeah we could look at that that's all stuff we've been looking 1862 01:36:42,069 --> 01:36:46,630 at that's all the bungle hall used to have bathrooms in it too where's that that's something 1863 01:36:51,189 --> 01:36:53,430 together how would you find something like that really like sonar 1864 01:36:54,789 --> 01:36:58,149 the fact that there's probably a steel tank that was probably not everywhere 1865 01:37:01,510 --> 01:37:07,979 but i would like to make a motion that we um signed the uh inspection second 1866 01:37:07,979 --> 01:37:27,579 well i thought we had a free week tonight too but i guess not you would have had a nice three weeks 1867 01:37:37,979 --> 01:37:43,020 okay we get paid for this meeting yes we're really all right oh the other two meetings 1868 01:37:43,020 --> 01:37:49,500 i put your name your initials down oh okay not that i care i'm just wondering if we have their 1869 01:37:49,500 --> 01:37:56,779 vote yeah i wasn't quite sure article four shall the town of stanford boris some not to exceed a 1870 01:37:56,779 --> 01:38:01,260 hundred thousand if article two and three are passed period said some to be repaid over a 1871 01:38:01,260 --> 01:38:05,659 five-year period yeah are we going to say a hundred thousand dollars toward renovation 1872 01:38:07,560 --> 01:38:08,359 why are we borrowing 1873 01:38:08,840 --> 01:38:15,180 probably yeah you gotta have to put that towards renovation yep yeah you do have to say renovation 1874 01:38:15,180 --> 01:38:20,460 and we do we just say we keep in if article two and three are passed or at that point it's 1875 01:38:20,460 --> 01:38:25,020 irrelevant if we've made it to article four correct yeah right so we'll take that out too 1876 01:38:27,020 --> 01:38:29,500 yeah yeah is there a kitchen in here or something 1877 01:38:34,140 --> 01:38:35,899 i was thinking maybe you could do like something 1878 01:38:39,659 --> 01:38:48,859 i don't know 1879 01:38:50,300 --> 01:38:52,060 as long as it's good okay 1880 01:38:55,420 --> 01:38:57,100 no 1881 01:39:00,140 --> 01:39:00,380 yeah 1882 01:39:02,539 --> 01:39:06,220 none of that yeah craziness with the coffee 1883 01:39:10,100 --> 01:39:10,340 cool 1884 01:39:10,340 --> 01:39:11,300 we'll see what happens 1885 01:39:11,300 --> 01:39:11,859 oh so i'm called 1886 01:39:12,260 --> 01:39:16,479 It was a good

01:39:22,300 What we're going to do with it? 1890 01:39:23,359 --> 01:39:24,979 What we're going to do with it is a message. 1891 01:39:24,979 --> 01:39:29,859 From the people that were here, they will spread it to, 1892 01:39:30,399 --> 01:39:33,760 and maybe that will calm down a lot of people that weren't here tonight. 1893 01:39:33,939 --> 01:39:35,260 Because I heard a lot of people. 1894 01:39:35,460 --> 01:39:36,239 You know what I like? 1895 01:39:36,520 --> 01:39:40,020 Some of the, like, I know we're still taping and stuff, 1896 01:39:40,020 --> 01:39:42,600 but some of the people that had questions, they were answered, 1897 01:39:42,720 --> 01:39:45,680 and they were really, like, you could see that breathing up. 1898 01:39:45,819 --> 01:39:48,220 I think it was a good thing.

01:40:50,210 I'm not a professional on it. 1923 01:40:50,210 --> 01:40:51,590 We don't have to nitpick everything. 1924 01:40:51,590 --> 01:40:55,270 We're not trying to put anything in there or say anything. 1925 01:40:55,270 --> 01:40:55,890 We're not professionals. 1926 01:40:55,890 --> 01:40:56,789 Politicians, bottom line, isn't it? 1927 01:40:56,789 --> 01:40:58,489 Even professionals can talk, right? 1928 01:40:58,489 --> 01:41:01,430 You see someone at the town meeting, it's just like, no. 1929 01:41:01,430 --> 01:41:05,130 We're just trying to make sure. 1930 01:41:05,130 --> 01:41:10,050 I think if this passes, if it passes, the most contentious thing is probably going 1931 01:41:10,050 --> 01:41:10,590 to be what we're going to do. 1932 01:41:10,729 --> 01:41:11,029 Yeah. 1933 01:41:11,029 --> 01:41:13,529 Or we should have a sign. 1934 01:41:13,529 --> 01:41:17,489 The big thing as far as this is a senior center. 1935 01:41:17,489 --> 01:41:20,930 You put it on the list, and then it's on this person's list. 1936 01:41:20,930 --> 01:41:22,010 Yeah, yeah. 1937 01:41:22,010 --> 01:41:23,430 You can hang it on the building, right? 1938 01:41:23,430 --> 01:41:24,850 Or you guys want to use the floor. 1939 01:41:24,850 --> 01:41:26,229 You can hang it on the wall. 1940 01:41:26,229 --> 01:41:26,609 Yep. 1941 01:41:26,609 --> 01:41:28,010 That's definitely a good idea. 1942 01:41:28,010 --> 01:41:30,550 My number one choice, too, is a 40-year-old. 1943 01:41:30,550 --> 01:41:30,850 Yep. 1944 01:41:30,850 --> 01:41:34,130 I don't know why you're talking about it. 1945 01:41:34,130 --> 01:41:35,409 There's a million things you can do. 1946 01:41:35,409 --> 01:41:35,909 Yeah. 1947 01:41:35,909 --> 01:41:39,390 And down the back, you know, you want to pay for a painting. 1948 01:41:39,390 --> 01:41:40,710 Down the back, there's a beautiful. 1949 01:41:40,710 --> 01:41:45,029 It's a beautiful area to walk in, and it's very, very pretty. 1950 01:41:45,029 --> 01:41:47,430 I'm sure you can build that into a fairground. 1951 01:41:47,430 --> 01:41:49,430 If you put picnic tables out there, people could come. 1952 01:41:49,430 --> 01:41:49,930 Yep. 1953 01:41:49,930 --> 01:41:50,810 They can walk in. 1954 01:41:50,810 --> 01:41:52,930 They can go stop after lunch. 1955 01:41:52,930 --> 01:41:55,930 Well, like Mike said, they could walk their dog there. 1956 01:41:55,930 --> 01:41:56,430 Yeah. 1957 01:41:56,430 --> 01:41:57,729 And not on the schoolyard. 1958 01:41:57,729 --> 01:41:59,729 You just got to be thick and be inventive. 1959 01:41:59,729 --> 01:42:00,229 That's Clark's. 1960 01:42:00,229 --> 01:42:02,229 Clark's got horseshoe pads, and they got . 1961 01:42:02,229 --> 01:42:02,729 Oh, yeah. 1962 01:42:02,729 --> 01:42:03,229 We get fence. 1963 01:42:03,229 --> 01:42:04,229 And townspeople can use it. 1964 01:42:04,229 --> 01:42:07,229 We can have a play area if you want to have a party here. 1965 01:42:07,229 --> 01:42:08,229 We can have a party. 1966 01:42:08,229 --> 01:42:09,229 We can have some fun. 1967 01:42:09,229 --> 01:42:10,029 We can have a party. 1968 01:42:10,029 --> 01:42:10,529 Yeah. 1969 01:42:10,710 --> 01:42:12,710 And if you go down there and play horseshoes, you won't want them. 1970 01:42:12,710 --> 01:42:13,710 You could go to a play area. 1971 01:42:13,710 --> 01:42:14,210 Yeah. 1972 01:42:14,210 --> 01:42:16,210 You could make a donation to walk your dog out. 1973 01:42:16,210 --> 01:42:16,710 Yeah. 1974 01:42:16,710 --> 01:42:17,710 We could do a lot. 1975 01:42:17,710 --> 01:42:18,210 To what? 1976 01:42:18,210 --> 01:42:18,770 Yeah. 1977 01:42:18,770 --> 01:42:19,770 To what? 1978 01:42:19,770 --> 01:42:21,770 Play area for kids and stuff. 1979 01:42:21,770 --> 01:42:24,890 I don't know what's out here. 1980 01:42:24,890 --> 01:42:26,600 Uh-huh. 1981 01:42:26,600 --> 01:42:27,600 I don't know. 1982 01:42:27,600 -->

willing to hear whatever somebody had for an idea for it. 1986 01:42:36,600 --> 01:42:37,600 I think we're good. 1987 01:42:37,600 --> 01:42:38,600 No, I'm not rushing you. 1988 01:42:38,600 -->
