1
00:00:03,629 --> 00:00:06,849
Will the assembly stand for the pleasure meeting?

2
00:00:08,089 --> 00:00:21,600
I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America and to the Republic of which it stands, one nation, under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.

3
00:00:21,600 --> 00:00:22,100
Okay.

4
00:00:24,620 --> 00:00:28,449
Welcome to a meeting from Stanford Select Board.

5
00:00:28,890 --> 00:00:32,969
We have a matter to discuss that is not included on the agenda.

6
00:00:33,229 --> 00:00:37,170
You may do so by addressing the chairperson and stating your name and address.

7
00:00:37,770 --> 00:00:42,170
You will notice that all our meetings are recorded, and this is to aid with summarization.

8
00:00:43,210 --> 00:00:48,350
Visitors are welcome, and we allow five minutes of comments per visitor and 15 minutes per topic.

9
00:00:48,929 --> 00:00:53,130
Discussions will be held in a calm and civilized manner and respectful of others.

10
00:00:53,450 --> 00:00:55,729
Select Board members present are...

11
00:00:55,729 --> 00:00:59,990
Mike Gronk, Nancy Bresheka, John Dunn, Jeff Graham, Dirk Navarro.

12
00:01:00,829 --> 00:01:04,989
Will there be any adding of items or removing items from tonight's agenda?

13
00:01:05,609 --> 00:01:16,170
Will there be any adjustments to the agenda, such as changing the order of items?

14
00:01:19,879 --> 00:01:24,340
I think we'll have to skip over Rodney Howland, so maybe he'll make it to the next meeting.

15
00:01:24,640 --> 00:01:24,780
Okay.

16
00:01:25,519 --> 00:01:29,819
And Jan, you're supporting tonight's meeting for your series of video.

17
00:01:30,659 --> 00:01:37,560
Hearing of other visitors?

18
00:01:37,980 --> 00:01:41,640
Thank you, Pietro.

19
00:01:41,879 --> 00:01:42,239
Thank you.

20
00:01:42,540 --> 00:01:43,659
347 Mill Road.

21
00:01:44,859 --> 00:01:50,569
So today, I purchased the property behind the Auburn residence,

22
00:01:51,010 --> 00:01:57,269
and there's some discrepancies on boundaries there and right-of-ways.

23
00:01:58,530 --> 00:02:04,109
If you look at the property, if you're looking at Auburn's house,

24
00:02:04,650 --> 00:02:10,889
the road that goes up to her driveway turns into the right-of-way for the land that's in the back that's locked.

25
00:02:11,590 --> 00:02:13,050
So, but...

26
00:02:13,229 --> 00:02:16,169
But the road, if you just keep driving on the road forever and ever,

27
00:02:16,270 --> 00:02:19,129
it comes out in Joe Dean's backyard and it'll show you the road, right?

28
00:02:19,569 --> 00:02:21,370
So, okay.

29
00:02:21,530 --> 00:02:25,990
So now there's a right-of-way that went to that gravel bed once upon a time, right?

30
00:02:26,509 --> 00:02:29,909
And so I have all the mapping and all the boundaries and all the stuff.

31
00:02:30,490 --> 00:02:42,080
So in 1986, Paul, for sure, drew a map that had his, this property, which is down here that I'm talking about,

32
00:02:42,419 --> 00:02:43,080
and it says,

33
00:02:43,080 --> 00:02:45,680
on the butter, it says, Paul LeChere.

34
00:02:46,159 --> 00:02:50,620
Now, that, in fact, this is the state map.

35
00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:54,939
And in the state map, it shows Lance Petro owns all of this.

36
00:02:56,840 --> 00:02:59,960
LeChere's property is way up here, a thousand feet away.

37
00:03:00,629 --> 00:03:06,169
So for him to have a right-of-way to something he doesn't own, it's kind of foolish, right?

38
00:03:06,530 --> 00:03:12,469
And so I think what happened was, is once upon a time, nobody knew where the actual boundaries were correctly.

39
00:03:12,469 --> 00:03:15,430
So when you guys hired the state to do this,

40
00:03:15,530 --> 00:03:18,889
they put in their correct boundaries to their knowledge.

41
00:03:19,409 --> 00:03:25,469
So that being said, there's certainly no LeChere property around there.

42
00:03:25,889 --> 00:03:28,909
Does the property I just bought, was that from the LeChere family?

43
00:03:29,009 --> 00:03:29,530
Yep, it is.

44
00:03:29,849 --> 00:03:34,969
It's one of the granddaughters or something from the original Paul LeChere.

45
00:03:35,550 --> 00:03:41,310
Now, Dave thinks that he's going to be able to drive his truck from his land,

46
00:03:41,310 --> 00:03:44,189
which is 1,000 feet from my property,

47
00:03:44,189 --> 00:03:49,110
and about 900 feet from a gravel bed that he doesn't own, that he thinks he owns.

48
00:03:49,110 --> 00:03:51,250
Apparently, they've been using it for years and years.

49
00:03:51,250 --> 00:03:55,129
And right now, his tractor's on that property, and there's trees cut down.

50
00:03:55,129 --> 00:03:56,310
Do I care about that?

51
00:03:56,310 --> 00:03:58,189
Nope, I don't care because it's not my property.

52
00:03:58,189 --> 00:04:02,889
But I do care about the fact that he thinks his driveway is my yard, and that's not going to happen.

53
00:04:02,889 --> 00:04:08,349
So what I'm saying is, his property's all the way up on the top of Henry Hill.

54
00:04:08,349 --> 00:04:12,150
He has a road that goes to his property, but then when he leaves there, he decides he's going to come all the way to the top,

55
00:04:12,150 --> 00:04:12,930
and then he goes to his property.

56
00:04:12,930 --> 00:04:13,469
But then when he leaves there, he decides he's going to come all the way up to the top of Henry Hill.

57
00:04:13,469 --> 00:04:15,469
he's gonna come all the way down here,

58
00:04:15,469 --> 00:04:18,709
and this is Scott's property, this is Bosburg's property,

59
00:04:18,709 --> 00:04:21,850
this is Lance's property, then he gets to my property.

60
00:04:21,850 --> 00:04:24,850
So not only is he using a right-of-way that's fictitious

61
00:04:24,850 --> 00:04:26,589
that doesn't belong to him anymore,

62
00:04:26,589 --> 00:04:30,449
he also drives through everybody's property to get there.

63
00:04:30,449 --> 00:04:34,089
So he also has a fence, a chain,

64
00:04:34,089 --> 00:04:37,769
that on the abutment of Lance's and my property.

65
00:04:37,769 --> 00:04:39,129
I'm pretty sure you can't put chains

66
00:04:39,129 --> 00:04:40,550
on somebody else's property.

67
00:04:40,550 --> 00:04:45,430
So my problem is, there's no problem, it's not up to me,

68
00:04:45,430 --> 00:04:48,089
and I talked to my lawyer, Tom Rumble, about it today.

69
00:04:48,089 --> 00:04:50,430
He said, Nate, it's up to him to prove to you

70
00:04:50,430 --> 00:04:52,990
that he has the ability to use this.

71
00:04:52,990 --> 00:04:55,949
Well, this map was built in 1986

72
00:04:55,949 --> 00:04:59,290
that was drawn by his grandfather or his father, whoever,

73
00:04:59,290 --> 00:05:02,189
doesn't give him the ability to use that right-of-way,

74
00:05:02,189 --> 00:05:05,430
just because they wrote it on a drawing paper.

75
00:05:05,430 --> 00:05:08,769
When we go to the deeds, it says that the grantor

76
00:05:08,769 --> 00:05:10,709
has the ability to use,

77
00:05:10,709 --> 00:05:13,350
the right-of-way to the gravel.

78
00:05:13,350 --> 00:05:16,850
Well, if the grantor never owned the gravel pit,

79
00:05:16,850 --> 00:05:18,290
how does he get to do it?

80
00:05:18,290 --> 00:05:19,990
I mean, because in Los, once,

81
00:05:19,990 --> 00:05:21,389
and I don't know the whole story yet,

82
00:05:21,389 --> 00:05:22,829
but I just want to keep everybody abreast

83
00:05:22,829 --> 00:05:25,589
of what's going on here, because I do have the road blocked,

84
00:05:25,589 --> 00:05:26,649
and nobody's gonna go up and down

85
00:05:26,649 --> 00:05:28,529
until we get it figured out, period.

86
00:05:28,529 --> 00:05:33,569
So when the road, when this was built,

87
00:05:33,569 --> 00:05:36,209
probably the whole mountain was Luscious, I don't know that.

88
00:05:36,209 --> 00:05:39,370
Maybe in the early 1900s, they owned a whole ton of stuff.

89
00:05:39,370 --> 00:05:40,509
But according to the drawings,

90
00:05:40,509 --> 00:05:45,350
and the deeds, in like 58,

91
00:05:45,350 --> 00:05:47,589
some of this stuff was owned by Foley,

92
00:05:47,589 --> 00:05:51,250
then it was owned by the Luscious.

93
00:05:51,250 --> 00:05:53,889
So where Lance's property, that was the McNulty's,

94
00:05:53,889 --> 00:05:56,589
and they also, and that's always been their,

95
00:05:56,589 --> 00:05:58,529
the acreage has always been the same size,

96
00:05:58,529 --> 00:06:02,529
same as the 45.33 acres that Luscious owns.

97
00:06:02,529 --> 00:06:05,800
But I think Luscious thought their property

98
00:06:05,800 --> 00:06:07,790
was down the bank more.

99
00:06:07,790 --> 00:06:10,290
And it can't be, because it's in Rosberg's property,

100
00:06:10,290 --> 00:06:12,649
and Scott's property, can't have two places at once.

101
00:06:12,649 --> 00:06:15,970
So either, once upon a time,

102
00:06:15,970 --> 00:06:17,189
they owned the whole mountain,

103
00:06:17,189 --> 00:06:18,529
and they owned the gravel bed.

104
00:06:18,529 --> 00:06:20,430
Because I've been told by the family,

105
00:06:20,430 --> 00:06:22,829
we've sold gravel out of there in the 80s,

106
00:06:22,829 --> 00:06:26,329
like you read about.

107
00:06:26,329 --> 00:06:27,149
What's that?

108
00:06:27,149 --> 00:06:28,870
One of the oldest names in town, sure.

109
00:06:28,870 --> 00:06:30,410
Yeah, yeah, I get it, 100%.

110
00:06:30,410 --> 00:06:31,310
They probably did own that.

111
00:06:31,310 --> 00:06:34,370
They probably did, and I don't care if they did.

112
00:06:34,370 --> 00:06:36,370
Right, so according to the state,

113
00:06:36,370 --> 00:06:37,769
if you guys say to me, hey Nate,

114
00:06:37,769 --> 00:06:40,509
that state map is garbage, don't go by that,

115
00:06:40,509 --> 00:06:41,610
then I won't.

116
00:06:41,610 --> 00:06:44,100
But I can tell you guys paid a lot of money for somebody,

117
00:06:44,100 --> 00:06:47,779
to correct, so.

118
00:06:47,779 --> 00:07:19,540
The state, three plus acres, to 17 acres.

119
00:07:19,540 --> 00:07:26,079
So my point is, number one legal thing is no one can.

120
00:07:41,680 --> 00:07:42,850
I just, I don't.

121
00:07:42,850 --> 00:07:46,800
But if you have a right,

122
00:07:46,800 --> 00:07:48,740
so I have the right of way to go to that gravel bed.

123
00:07:48,740 --> 00:07:51,500
But there's a fence up, a chain.

124
00:07:51,500 --> 00:07:55,620
So if I can't go there, how come he can come on my property?

125
00:07:55,620 --> 00:07:58,120
Because he's a grantee here, and I'm the grantee here.

126
00:07:58,120 --> 00:08:00,680
Whatever the wording is, that's what I am.

127
00:08:00,680 --> 00:08:01,720
So you're not gonna tell me,

128
00:08:01,720 --> 00:08:03,680
I can't go through a piece of property,

129
00:08:03,680 --> 00:08:05,860
off of my property, if you're gonna drive in my property,

130
00:08:05,860 --> 00:08:07,899
whenever you feel like it, and use it as your driveway.

131
00:08:07,899 --> 00:08:09,199
It's not a driveway.

132
00:08:09,199 --> 00:08:11,060
It's not for constant use.

133
00:08:11,060 --> 00:08:13,800
It's for, it was built there for that gravel.

134
00:08:13,800 --> 00:08:16,459
Not for him to drive from the top of the mountain,

135
00:08:16,459 --> 00:08:18,240
down through two other pieces of property

136
00:08:18,240 --> 00:08:20,399
that he don't own, three other pieces of property,

137
00:08:20,399 --> 00:08:22,180
onto my property and up.

138
00:08:22,180 --> 00:08:23,639
That's just not, doesn't make any sense.

139
00:08:23,639 --> 00:08:26,040
That's common sense, it just tells you it's not right.

140
00:08:26,040 --> 00:08:28,480
You're already trespassing on three other pieces of property.

141
00:08:28,480 --> 00:08:30,540
So, that being said, I'm just, I'm gonna, I'm just, I'm gonna,

142
00:08:30,540 --> 00:08:32,480
I'm just, I'm gonna dig into it deeper,

143
00:08:32,480 --> 00:08:34,419
but Tom Rumble, my lawyer, said to me,

144
00:08:34,419 --> 00:08:36,480
Nate, make him prove to you that he has the access

145
00:08:36,480 --> 00:08:37,580
to go there, right?

146
00:08:37,580 --> 00:08:39,220
And that's what I'm gonna do,

147
00:08:39,220 --> 00:08:41,419
but I'm gonna tell you, he's gonna be pissed,

148
00:08:41,419 --> 00:08:44,379
because he didn't buy the property from his sister,

149
00:08:44,379 --> 00:08:46,820
that she'd been paying taxes on for 20 years,

150
00:08:46,820 --> 00:08:49,419
and he had no want or needs then,

151
00:08:49,419 --> 00:08:50,820
but I know that he's gonna be pissed

152
00:08:50,820 --> 00:08:52,759
as soon as he hears that I bought that property,

153
00:08:52,759 --> 00:08:53,960
and that's tough shit.

154
00:08:53,960 --> 00:08:56,940
So the second thing is, he's going to say,

155
00:08:56,940 --> 00:08:59,840
well, I still have a right of way there, but you don't.

156
00:08:59,840 --> 00:09:01,279
You don't have a right of way there,

157
00:09:01,279 --> 00:09:03,740
and if you do, you need to show me that you own the land.

158
00:09:03,740 --> 00:09:04,840
You don't own the land.

159
00:09:04,840 --> 00:09:07,320
This is, like Mike said, this is civil.

160
00:09:07,320 --> 00:09:09,340
100%, no, no, but I just wanted to let you guys know

161
00:09:09,340 --> 00:09:11,720
what's gonna happen, because I'm not gonna stand back

162
00:09:11,720 --> 00:09:13,720
and just let people just trespass.

163
00:09:13,720 --> 00:09:14,620
It wouldn't be the first time

164
00:09:14,620 --> 00:09:16,159
that someone's upset in this town.

165
00:09:16,159 --> 00:09:18,299
Well, you know what, I'm not upset.

166
00:09:18,299 --> 00:09:20,320
He's, he, he, here's what happened.

167
00:09:20,320 --> 00:09:21,700
When I was starting to look at that land,

168
00:09:21,700 --> 00:09:24,000
I drove up Henry Hill, he's got cameras up there,

169
00:09:24,000 --> 00:09:27,059
so he stopped one day and said, you driving my land?

170
00:09:27,059 --> 00:09:28,360
I go, who are you?

171
00:09:28,360 --> 00:09:29,559
He's like,

172
00:09:29,840 --> 00:09:34,740
I'm Dave, sure, or Crusher or whoever they call this guy.

173
00:09:34,740 --> 00:09:39,080
So he says, do you, you up on top of Henry Hill?

174
00:09:39,080 --> 00:09:40,120
I said, yup.

175
00:09:40,120 --> 00:09:42,419
He's like, well, that's my property.

176
00:09:42,419 --> 00:09:44,279
He goes, and I don't want anybody up there,

177
00:09:44,279 --> 00:09:45,620
because I have stuff up there.

178
00:09:45,620 --> 00:09:46,820
I go, you got a bunch of junk up there,

179
00:09:46,820 --> 00:09:48,559
and do you think I need any of that shit?

180
00:09:48,559 --> 00:09:51,820
So listen, I'm not gonna, and I'm like, I'm not,

181
00:09:51,820 --> 00:09:53,860
you came barking at me, and I'm not gonna deal with that.

182
00:09:53,860 --> 00:09:57,559
So now I have the other side of the flip coin now,

183
00:09:57,559 --> 00:09:59,440
and now he's gonna try to be using

184
00:09:59,840 --> 00:10:04,370
my property, and if he owned the land next to it,

185
00:10:04,370 --> 00:10:07,090
I can't stop him, it's all his, and away you go.

186
00:10:07,090 --> 00:10:10,129
But because you don't own anything abutting me,

187
00:10:10,129 --> 00:10:12,399
where that land, that goes.

188
00:10:12,399 --> 00:10:14,700
If you get surveys, or this is,

189
00:10:14,700 --> 00:10:16,100
anybody that gets surveys,

190
00:10:16,100 --> 00:10:18,000
I will get a survey, but yeah.

191
00:10:18,000 --> 00:10:18,840
Give it to us.

192
00:10:18,840 --> 00:10:19,659
I mean, today's the first day.

193
00:10:19,659 --> 00:10:21,200
Yeah, record it here,

194
00:10:21,200 --> 00:10:23,200
we turn it over to the mapper,

195
00:10:23,200 --> 00:10:25,200
she fills out and changes the line,

196
00:10:25,200 --> 00:10:27,139
because she has to go by the surveys.

197
00:10:27,139 --> 00:10:29,580
Right, and so does everybody else.

198
00:10:29,580 --> 00:10:30,379
Mm-hmm. So she's gotta go

199
00:10:30,379 --> 00:10:31,220
by the surveys.

200
00:10:31,220 --> 00:10:34,700
And so until he shows the mapper,

201
00:10:34,700 --> 00:10:35,799
there's no question.

202
00:10:35,799 --> 00:10:36,700
Right.

203
00:10:36,700 --> 00:10:37,899
I don't have to do anything.

204
00:10:37,899 --> 00:10:40,320
I'm not the one in dispute here, right?

205
00:10:40,320 --> 00:10:42,000
So I'm gonna stand by,

206
00:10:42,000 --> 00:10:43,799
I'm gonna go by the drawings that I have,

207
00:10:43,799 --> 00:10:45,399
the markers that I have,

208
00:10:45,399 --> 00:10:46,740
I'm gonna mark the property,

209
00:10:46,740 --> 00:10:48,000
I'm gonna start cutting trees,

210
00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:49,940
I'm gonna tear the building down that's down there,

211
00:10:49,940 --> 00:10:51,940
I'm gonna ask the Stanford Fire Department

212
00:10:51,940 --> 00:10:53,639
if they wanna have some fun first,

213
00:10:53,639 --> 00:10:54,740
and if they don't, that's fine,

214
00:10:54,740 --> 00:10:56,139
I'll just put it in a dumpster.

215
00:10:56,139 --> 00:10:58,740
But I'm gonna tear the buildings down,

216
00:10:58,740 --> 00:11:00,120
I'm gonna level that ground off,

217
00:11:00,120 --> 00:11:02,419
I'm gonna put a new curtain drain in,

218
00:11:02,419 --> 00:11:04,419
and it's gonna sit like that for this season.

219
00:11:04,419 --> 00:11:05,899
Next year, there'll be something there,

220
00:11:05,899 --> 00:11:07,700
but I don't know what it's gonna be yet.

221
00:11:07,700 --> 00:11:10,259
So a farm dominium or a big garage

222
00:11:10,259 --> 00:11:13,220
and make all kind of noise.

223
00:11:13,220 --> 00:11:15,080
So, but, that's it.

224
00:11:15,080 --> 00:11:17,559
And so I don't wanna be in trouble,

225
00:11:17,559 --> 00:11:20,100
but you're not, like,

226
00:11:20,100 --> 00:11:22,360
it's funny because the road's got a chain on this side

227
00:11:22,360 --> 00:11:23,799
and a chain on this side now.

228
00:11:23,799 --> 00:11:26,460
So, and the chain that's on the other side

229
00:11:26,460 --> 00:11:28,600
is on nobody's land that he owns.

230
00:11:28,600 --> 00:11:31,039
So, that's all.

231
00:11:31,039 --> 00:11:31,720
Yep.

232
00:11:31,720 --> 00:11:32,919
All right.

233
00:11:32,919 --> 00:11:34,379
It sounds like you're...

234
00:11:34,379 --> 00:11:35,220
I'll handle it.

235
00:11:35,220 --> 00:11:36,059
You're handling it.

236
00:11:36,059 --> 00:11:41,000
Yeah, I will.

237
00:11:41,000 --> 00:11:44,600
You guys know what I'm talking about.

238
00:11:44,600 --> 00:11:46,600
I helped myself on Saturday

239
00:11:46,600 --> 00:11:48,100
and went around the loop,

240
00:11:48,100 --> 00:11:50,750
picked up a ton of trash.

241
00:11:50,750 --> 00:11:52,710
I had already previously done that up there

242
00:11:52,710 --> 00:11:54,509
in the high-tension lines.

243
00:11:54,509 --> 00:11:56,490
We picked up a bunch of stuff, more trash,

244
00:11:56,490 --> 00:11:58,429
and I just went back out there and there's more trash.

245
00:11:58,429 --> 00:12:01,389
So, if anybody has any idea of what's going on,

246
00:12:01,389 --> 00:12:03,669
I would like to be informed.

247
00:12:03,669 --> 00:12:05,389
Is this with, I'm sorry.

248
00:12:05,389 --> 00:12:06,230
County Road.

249
00:12:06,230 --> 00:12:07,529
County Road, the loop that way.

250
00:12:07,529 --> 00:12:08,370
Yep.

251
00:12:08,370 --> 00:12:09,230
And you guys did it

252
00:12:09,230 --> 00:12:12,769
with your ATV group, yep.

253
00:12:12,769 --> 00:12:13,809
Snowmobile group or...

254
00:12:13,809 --> 00:12:14,529
Small group.

255
00:12:14,529 --> 00:12:15,070
Yep.

256
00:12:15,070 --> 00:12:18,210
Me, myself, and I went with my group.

257
00:12:18,210 --> 00:12:20,970
So, just letting you know that I did that.

258
00:12:20,970 --> 00:12:25,049
I've just seen a lot of, it's not side-by-siders.

259
00:12:25,049 --> 00:12:26,509
I can definitely tell you that

260
00:12:26,509 --> 00:12:29,610
because we're not carrying gas cans

261
00:12:29,610 --> 00:12:34,190
and big pallets and bed frames or anything like that

262
00:12:34,190 --> 00:12:34,990
or sheetrock.

263
00:12:34,990 --> 00:12:36,830
I mean, we're not carrying any of that.

264
00:12:36,830 --> 00:12:39,330
You're doing pretty good on your road.

265
00:12:39,330 --> 00:12:40,330
You're doing pretty good with the cameras.

266
00:12:40,330 --> 00:12:42,269
Yeah, they go up County Road now.

267
00:12:42,269 --> 00:12:43,570
Now they've got a different road.

268
00:12:43,570 --> 00:12:44,409
Yeah.

269
00:12:44,409 --> 00:12:46,370
If I buy a piece of land up on County Road,

270
00:12:46,370 --> 00:12:48,129
we can stop that, too.

271
00:12:48,129 --> 00:12:50,210
You can put signs up, cameras, and you can...

272
00:12:50,210 --> 00:12:51,610
We've got some methods.

273
00:12:51,610 --> 00:12:53,009
You can just do that, right?

274
00:12:53,009 --> 00:12:53,850
Right.

275
00:12:53,850 --> 00:12:55,549
If you just do that, that'll solve the problem.

276
00:12:55,549 --> 00:12:58,110
I also did cut a tree out at Risky Ridge.

277
00:12:58,110 --> 00:12:59,710
Removed that, so.

278
00:12:59,710 --> 00:13:01,309
You took the wood, too?

279
00:13:01,309 --> 00:13:02,889
No, there wasn't enough wood to take.

280
00:13:02,889 --> 00:13:05,950
But it was a good-sized tree.

281
00:13:05,950 --> 00:13:06,929
But I did clear it out.

282
00:13:06,929 --> 00:13:09,169
I mean, obviously, the trees weren't to be done on Risky.

283
00:13:09,330 --> 00:13:13,169
I just wanted to let you know that we are out there working on the job.

284
00:13:13,169 --> 00:13:14,009
Yep, okay.

285
00:13:14,009 --> 00:13:15,730
Working on trails.

286
00:13:15,730 --> 00:13:19,820
Working on cleaning.

287
00:13:19,820 --> 00:13:22,629
Your last question.

288
00:13:22,629 --> 00:13:23,629
Pardon.

289
00:13:23,629 --> 00:13:26,129
Pardon.

290
00:13:26,129 --> 00:13:30,700
So, in anticipation of the Newtown Plan,

291
00:13:30,700 --> 00:13:35,080
there will be a survey coming to people in their mailbox.

292
00:13:35,080 --> 00:13:38,639
Also, it can be completed online, if you prefer.

293
00:13:38,639 --> 00:13:40,740
If you don't want to spend money on a stamp,

294
00:13:40,740 --> 00:13:41,840
you can drop it off

295
00:13:41,840 --> 00:13:43,200
in the box.

296
00:13:43,200 --> 00:13:49,480
Also, on May 30th, at 12 noon,

297
00:13:49,480 --> 00:13:52,759
Native's son, Kurt Gamari,

298
00:13:52,759 --> 00:13:56,659
will be leading a walking, a historic walking tour

299
00:13:56,659 --> 00:13:59,019
for about an hour, an hour and a half.

300
00:13:59,019 --> 00:14:01,840
And then at 1.30, there's going to be,

301
00:14:01,840 --> 00:14:05,639
this is, again, to facilitate, you know,

302
00:14:05,639 --> 00:14:08,139
what people want in our town plan,

303
00:14:08,139 --> 00:14:11,379
a community visioning session.

304
00:14:11,379 --> 00:14:12,820
Basically, I think we'll be hanging out,

305
00:14:12,820 --> 00:14:15,220
talking ideas, and having some snacks.

306
00:14:15,220 --> 00:14:20,100
So, the ring date, so the date is May 30th,

307
00:14:20,100 --> 00:14:24,159
12 noon, here is where it starts and finishes,

308
00:14:24,159 --> 00:14:25,759
and then we have the visioning.

309
00:14:25,759 --> 00:14:31,899
And if it rains, it will be the following Saturday, June 6th.

310
00:14:31,899 --> 00:14:35,700
So, plan your trash and recycling so that you're done.

311
00:14:35,700 --> 00:14:39,340
And then just come right on down here.

312
00:14:39,340 --> 00:14:42,179
Save on gas, have a good time, learn some history.

313
00:14:42,179 --> 00:14:46,419
Where, are you walking just the village district, or what?

314
00:14:46,419 --> 00:14:49,159
Yeah, we're, they're kind of narrowing it down,

315
00:14:49,159 --> 00:14:51,419
and they're going to have a bit of things to say as well.

316
00:14:51,419 --> 00:14:53,860
But I'm going to be there.

317
00:14:53,860 --> 00:14:55,299
I don't know if we have anything to discuss.

318
00:14:55,299 --> 00:14:56,399
Yeah, kind of a guide,

319
00:14:56,399 --> 00:15:00,570
and just to point things out historically.

320
00:15:00,570 --> 00:15:19,340
They're going to lead with moral support.

321
00:15:19,340 --> 00:15:21,340
And we may go up Sevens Lane.

322
00:15:21,340 --> 00:15:24,779
Is that where the village district starts right now?

323
00:15:24,779 --> 00:15:26,779
Yes, yeah, it goes from the Methodist Church

324
00:15:26,779 --> 00:15:28,139
down to the Villanueva.

325
00:15:28,139 --> 00:15:30,519
Once on the east side of the village,

326
00:15:30,519 --> 00:15:33,990
it stops at Jepson Road.

327
00:15:33,990 --> 00:15:58,190
They were reluctant to expand it even to Belmonts in the past.

328
00:15:58,190 --> 00:16:00,250
There's also, I mean, there's going to be chatter

329
00:16:00,250 --> 00:16:04,980
about developmental, straighten out all the tiers

330
00:16:04,980 --> 00:16:08,039
and everything that's going on with Act 181 right now.

331
00:16:08,039 --> 00:16:09,279
So, that.

332
00:16:09,279 --> 00:16:11,580
Did you see that, it did get repeated today?

333
00:16:11,580 --> 00:16:12,460
Did you see that?

334
00:16:12,460 --> 00:16:14,120
The whole thing?

335
00:16:14,120 --> 00:16:16,019
The rule in Tier 3.

336
00:16:16,019 --> 00:16:18,379
Yeah.

337
00:16:18,379 --> 00:16:21,460
So, the rest of it, everyone seems to be all right with.

338
00:16:21,460 --> 00:16:22,759
Yeah.

339
00:16:22,759 --> 00:16:25,519
I mean, that's all, they're going to look for spaces

340
00:16:25,519 --> 00:16:30,139
that they can expand in Vermont, more or less centrally located.

341
00:16:30,139 --> 00:16:32,399
I mean, they're going to expand out over the mountain range

342
00:16:32,399 --> 00:16:35,080
because the goal is to keep the scenic beauty

343
00:16:35,080 --> 00:16:37,500
and preserve natural resources.

344
00:16:37,500 --> 00:16:40,940
But they may bring up a discussion where you can expand

345
00:16:40,940 --> 00:16:44,240
out from the village center, however far it is,

346
00:16:44,240 --> 00:16:47,090
like a half-mile circumference or something like that,

347
00:16:47,090 --> 00:16:51,860
and focus on developing that area.

348
00:16:51,860 --> 00:16:52,500
Yeah.

349
00:16:52,500 --> 00:16:53,820
Anything else, Meredith?

350
00:16:53,820 --> 00:16:55,129
Tim?

351
00:16:55,129 --> 00:16:56,230
Hey, that's it.

352
00:16:56,230 --> 00:16:59,529
I just want to respond to what Kurt's saying.

353
00:16:59,529 --> 00:17:03,269
The village center was designated 20 years ago,

354
00:17:03,269 --> 00:17:05,849
and that's how we got the grants for the sidewalk

355
00:17:05,849 --> 00:17:09,109
and the school parking lot and all the other things we did.

356
00:17:09,109 --> 00:17:10,809
It's not true, Dave.

357
00:17:10,809 --> 00:17:12,109
Dave, it's not true.

358
00:17:12,109 --> 00:17:13,390
We went through a whole process

359
00:17:13,390 --> 00:17:15,309
that designated the village center district

360
00:17:15,309 --> 00:17:16,750
about maybe five years ago.

361
00:17:16,750 --> 00:17:17,950
Five years ago, yeah.

362
00:17:17,950 --> 00:17:18,990
That's it.

363
00:17:18,990 --> 00:17:22,890
It's not true if it was, it was never met to be the case.

364
00:17:22,890 --> 00:17:25,130
Okay, that's, we still got the grant.

365
00:17:25,130 --> 00:17:28,029
And that village thing, we had to do a lot more.

366
00:17:28,029 --> 00:17:29,329
Yep.

367
00:17:29,329 --> 00:17:31,029
You probably want to inform it.

368
00:17:31,029 --> 00:17:36,250
But at the same time, under 181, we don't have city water or sewer.

369
00:17:36,250 --> 00:17:41,640
To expand the village center when you don't have city and water

370
00:17:41,640 --> 00:17:44,339
and sewer for housing is a waste of time.

371
00:17:44,339 --> 00:17:46,839
It's a waste of time looking at this.

372
00:17:46,839 --> 00:17:50,579
It's not what Stanford wants, and I'm sure we'll find out after we.

373
00:17:50,579 --> 00:17:52,680
Right, after the survey and the plan.

374
00:17:52,680 --> 00:17:56,160
Get the survey done, and we've been down this road five times.

375
00:17:56,160 --> 00:17:56,759
Yep.

376
00:17:56,759 --> 00:17:59,259
The bottom line is I just would hate to see the committee

377
00:17:59,259 --> 00:18:03,180
put a lot of effort into something that's not going to go on.

378
00:18:03,180 --> 00:18:06,539
That's what they have to do for the plan.

379
00:18:06,539 --> 00:18:10,380
They've got to do these steps and.

380
00:18:10,380 --> 00:18:12,420
I'm just saying it's just going to be part of the process.

381
00:18:12,420 --> 00:18:14,319
It's something that's going to come up.

382
00:18:14,319 --> 00:18:16,819
The town doesn't have to do anything if they don't want to.

383
00:18:16,819 --> 00:18:18,920
There's so many other things we should have.

384
00:18:18,920 --> 00:18:19,619
Yep.

385
00:18:19,619 --> 00:18:23,059
So it's always going to come down to a town goal.

386
00:18:23,059 --> 00:18:25,519
Okay, anybody else for visitors?

387
00:18:25,519 --> 00:18:29,809
Okay.

388
00:18:29,809 --> 00:18:32,309
Reading and approval of records and orders.

389
00:18:32,309 --> 00:18:35,210
The special meeting minutes of March 30th.

390
00:18:35,210 --> 00:18:40,380
I don't think you were here.

391
00:18:40,380 --> 00:18:42,920
John and Jed were not present.

392
00:18:42,920 --> 00:18:45,119
So can I make a motion to accept them?

393
00:18:45,119 --> 00:18:46,690
Motion.

394
00:18:46,690 --> 00:18:51,170
All in favor?

395
00:18:51,170 --> 00:18:54,309
Regular minutes of April 16th.

396
00:18:54,309 --> 00:19:01,269
April 16th you weren't here.

397
00:19:01,269 --> 00:19:02,289
Motion to approve.

398
00:19:02,289 --> 00:19:03,329
Second.

399
00:19:03,329 --> 00:19:04,710
All in favor?

400
00:19:04,710 --> 00:19:05,470
Aye.

401
00:19:05,470 --> 00:19:06,430
No vote.

402
00:19:06,430 --> 00:19:09,240
John and Kurt.

403
00:19:09,240 --> 00:19:12,400
Yeah, okay.

404
00:19:12,400 --> 00:19:12,900
Okay.

405
00:19:12,900 --> 00:19:18,380
And the special meeting of April 23rd.

406
00:19:18,380 --> 00:19:20,440
Kurt was not here.

407
00:19:20,440 --> 00:19:22,250
I'll make a motion.

408
00:19:22,250 --> 00:19:22,950
Second.

409
00:19:22,950 --> 00:19:27,000
All in favor?

410
00:19:27,000 --> 00:19:28,140
Highway update.

411
00:19:28,140 --> 00:19:30,859
Approve and sign annual financial plan.

412
00:19:30,859 --> 00:19:37,730
This is the one Dave and you and I sat in on the Bennington.

413
00:19:37,730 --> 00:19:49,880
Yeah, the numbers are on the back, but you have to sign there.

414
00:19:49,880 --> 00:19:57,660
Basically what it is, they want to make sure we have enough money to run the highway department.

415
00:19:57,660 --> 00:20:01,450
We can't get grants.

416
00:20:01,450 --> 00:20:09,250
We tax people, we bill into our budget every year, but at the state, we can't go that way.

417
00:20:09,250 --> 00:20:11,970
So can I have a motion to sign?

418
00:20:11,970 --> 00:20:13,369
Motion to do.

419
00:20:13,369 --> 00:20:16,319
Second.

420
00:20:16,319 --> 00:20:17,319
All in favor?

421
00:20:17,319 --> 00:20:24,250
We break it out into summer budget and winter budget.

422
00:20:24,250 --> 00:20:36,390
And this, a percentage of this is for FEMA too, for grants and how they figure it out.

423
00:20:36,390 --> 00:20:39,789
Certain, the class roads we get so much money for too.

424
00:20:39,789 --> 00:20:41,349
Not the class one, but class two.

425
00:20:41,990 --> 00:20:43,589
And class three.

426
00:20:43,589 --> 00:20:44,630
What's the front page say?

427
00:20:44,630 --> 00:20:49,839
It says about $300.

428
00:20:49,839 --> 00:20:58,299
Funds raised by taxes are equivalent or greater than a sum of at least $300 per mile.

429
00:20:58,299 --> 00:21:02,539
So we have to spend at least $300 per mile.

430
00:21:02,539 --> 00:21:04,339
That's how I'm reading it.

431
00:21:04,339 --> 00:21:07,779
I think we do.

432
00:21:07,779 --> 00:21:11,259
Average.

433
00:21:11,259 --> 00:21:12,640
Do we all have to sign it?

434
00:21:12,640 --> 00:21:40,180
Dave was unable to be here tonight, so what else did he give us?

435
00:21:40,180 --> 00:21:41,539
We were awarded.

436
00:21:41,539 --> 00:21:42,539
We were awarded.

437
00:21:42,539 --> 00:21:48,779
We were awarded the Better Bench Works grant to work on a culvert replacement on sportsmen

438
00:21:48,779 --> 00:21:49,779
and smoothing a drive.

439
00:21:49,779 --> 00:21:56,630
They are giving us $16,000.

440
00:21:56,630 --> 00:21:57,630
What's the match on that?

441
00:21:57,630 --> 00:21:58,630
Is there one?

442
00:21:58,630 --> 00:21:59,630
Yeah, there is one.

443
00:22:04,269 --> 00:22:05,269
Five percent.

444
00:22:05,269 --> 00:22:06,269
I'm not sure what the match is.

445
00:22:06,269 --> 00:22:07,269
I'm not exposed.

446
00:22:07,269 --> 00:22:08,269
Twenty percent.

447
00:22:08,269 --> 00:22:09,269
A receipt from you, Tal, will be reimbursed for 80 percent of the project cost.

448
00:22:09,269 --> 00:22:10,269
And that includes, I don't know how much it is.

449
00:22:10,269 --> 00:22:11,269
I don't know.

450
00:22:11,269 --> 00:22:12,269
I don't know.

451
00:22:12,269 --> 00:22:13,269
I don't know.

452
00:22:13,269 --> 00:22:19,099
I don't know.

453
00:22:19,099 --> 00:22:20,230
I don't know.

454
00:22:20,230 --> 00:22:21,230
I don't know.

455
00:22:21,230 --> 00:22:23,029
I don't know.

456
00:22:23,029 --> 00:22:24,289
I don't know.

457
00:22:24,289 --> 00:22:25,289
I don't know.

458
00:22:25,289 --> 00:22:26,289
I don't know.

459
00:22:26,289 --> 00:22:27,289
I don't know.

460
00:22:27,289 --> 00:22:37,150
I don't know.

461
00:22:37,150 --> 00:22:42,690
ierigate, and that includes the use of our equipment, which we can charge at theme rate,

462
00:22:42,690 --> 00:22:44,200
so that's...

463
00:22:44,200 --> 00:22:49,619
And he's working on tearing down the state shed.

464
00:22:49,619 --> 00:22:50,880
Is that part of the old state shed?

465
00:22:50,880 --> 00:22:54,289
Is that what they're doing up there?

466
00:22:54,289 --> 00:22:56,450
It's all down.

467
00:22:56,450 --> 00:23:06,190
Today they took the salt shed down.

468
00:23:06,190 --> 00:23:08,750
The cake end?

469
00:23:08,750 --> 00:23:09,750
Yes.

470
00:23:09,750 --> 00:23:10,250
The track area.

471
00:23:10,250 --> 00:23:18,829
from the state. That's what Dave. Anything else on highway law?

472
00:23:18,829 --> 00:23:33,500
Okay, recycling. An alliance meeting yesterday afternoon.

473
00:23:33,500 --> 00:23:38,500
It was online. It's no longer than a half an hour.

474
00:23:38,500 --> 00:23:45,220
These meetings go quick. I'm promoting it. We need somebody

475
00:23:45,220 --> 00:23:50,220
next year. Somebody's got to go online at 4 o'clock and you'll be off at 4.30.

476
00:23:50,220 --> 00:23:55,220
But in order to hold a meeting, they need a quorum, so

477
00:23:55,220 --> 00:24:00,220
we need to sign up. And if you're home, you can eat supper. They can't see what you're

478
00:24:00,220 --> 00:24:05,349
doing.

479
00:24:05,349 --> 00:24:10,349
You probably hear that. How often do they have soda? Quarterly.

480
00:24:10,349 --> 00:24:15,740
Just four times a year? Yeah. So our proposed budget

481
00:24:15,740 --> 00:24:20,829
is BCRC runs this for us, the alliance.

482
00:24:20,829 --> 00:24:25,829
It's 2% more than last year.

483
00:24:25,829 --> 00:24:30,829
And our budget last year, we budgeted $5,600 and this year

484
00:24:30,829 --> 00:24:35,829
will be $6,800. We spent more than our budget,

485
00:24:35,829 --> 00:24:40,859
but we didn't get reimbursed last year for some payments that are coming back from the state

486
00:24:40,859 --> 00:24:47,910
like paint, pesticides. They have to

487
00:24:47,910 --> 00:24:56,559
send in their paperwork to get reimbursed. The alliance has hired an outreach manager

488
00:24:56,559 --> 00:25:03,319
and he goes to every, he tries to go to every school

489
00:25:03,319 --> 00:25:09,569
and every business in the alliance area, the 13 with recycling

490
00:25:09,569 --> 00:25:14,569
and like the garlic fest in Bennington, he works with them to make sure they're recycling

491
00:25:14,569 --> 00:25:20,180
as much as they can. And the fellow they hired is

492
00:25:20,180 --> 00:25:26,900
John Pitchroff from Adams. I guess he's got a business already, composting or recycling

493
00:25:26,900 --> 00:25:45,089
business, do you know? And the household hazardous waste facility will be opening

494
00:25:45,089 --> 00:25:51,619
on May 18th and we are going to be open 18 hours a week.

495
00:25:51,619 --> 00:25:58,670
The minimum for the state is 18 hours a week, but we're going to try 19.

496
00:25:58,670 --> 00:26:03,670
And one thing we talked about or somebody brought to the alliance

497
00:26:03,670 --> 00:26:09,250
chairman was a one drum system for battery collection.

498
00:26:09,250 --> 00:26:15,049
They're looking into that so you don't have to tape the ends of your batteries.

499
00:26:15,049 --> 00:26:21,839
So when the outreach coordinator is hired, he'll be looking into that.

500
00:26:21,839 --> 00:26:27,349
And it might be easier for the people working at recycling too.

501
00:26:27,349 --> 00:26:32,349
So in case anyone else wants to become an alliance representative, the next meeting

502
00:26:32,349 --> 00:26:38,539
is September 9th, online. Just putting it out there, guys.

503
00:26:38,539 --> 00:26:48,109
Anything else on recycling? How did Green Up Day go then? Did anybody

504
00:26:48,109 --> 00:26:53,180
participate? Pam said it went similarly to last year. Yeah, she said it went well.

505
00:26:53,180 --> 00:26:58,180
Without a hitch. I mean, I'll be back next year, I just couldn't

506
00:26:58,180 --> 00:27:01,180
do it this year because I had a memorial service.

507
00:27:01,180 --> 00:27:06,180
On the state roads up there, I know it's not part of the Green Up, but from here to

508
00:27:06,180 --> 00:27:11,180
Wilmington, the sides of the roads are spotless. Yeah, they cleaned up like last week.

509
00:27:11,180 --> 00:27:16,180
I saw the men cleaning up. Those beer cans in front of my house.

510
00:27:16,180 --> 00:27:21,180
They just got there. I saw a lot of caps down the middle.

511
00:27:21,180 --> 00:27:26,180
Yeah, that's decoration. If they're five cents, why aren't kids picking

512
00:27:26,180 --> 00:27:27,180
them up?

513
00:27:27,180 --> 00:27:32,180
You'll never see it, but I'll throw a can on them.

514
00:27:32,180 --> 00:27:37,180
I didn't see it. I was just telling them they were there.

515
00:27:37,180 --> 00:27:46,809
Just reached out because I felt that this compressed time of just a few hours on Saturday

516
00:27:46,809 --> 00:27:53,349
kind of alienated a lot of people. So I reached out to the person who had

517
00:27:53,349 --> 00:27:58,349
Green Up Day Vermont, and she said a lot of communities have it like the week before.

518
00:27:58,349 --> 00:28:05,349
And they hand out bags prior to, and they have the collection day on Saturday.

519
00:28:05,349 --> 00:28:06,349
So all week long.

520
00:28:06,349 --> 00:28:11,349
So you can do it at your leisure. The kids come home from school, you can help them.

521
00:28:11,349 --> 00:28:12,349
That's a great idea.

522
00:28:12,349 --> 00:28:18,349
I think I would like for next year to do that.

523
00:28:18,349 --> 00:28:23,349
Do you think people could just bring the bags right to the recycling center?

524
00:28:23,349 --> 00:28:26,349
And have it somehow tallied.

525
00:28:26,349 --> 00:28:27,349
Different color bags.

526
00:28:27,349 --> 00:28:28,349
Yeah.

527
00:28:28,349 --> 00:28:31,349
The green up bags are here in the office.

528
00:28:31,349 --> 00:28:34,349
They give them to you probably what, a month before?

529
00:28:34,349 --> 00:28:35,349
At least.

530
00:28:35,349 --> 00:28:37,349
She said that's why they do that.

531
00:28:37,349 --> 00:28:42,349
They give them to you prior to so you can have more of a control over what streets are

532
00:28:42,349 --> 00:28:47,349
going to be taken care of, assign them to people, and they can do it at their leisure.

533
00:28:47,349 --> 00:28:51,349
Because Mill Road basically didn't get done.

534
00:28:51,349 --> 00:28:57,349
I did from Tatro up, but the lower part as I'm driving back is really bad.

535
00:28:57,349 --> 00:29:01,450
I think, too, this year it was very short notice.

536
00:29:01,450 --> 00:29:02,450
Yes.

537
00:29:02,450 --> 00:29:08,450
But if we get somebody that wants to do this like a month or two ahead, they can plan.

538
00:29:08,450 --> 00:29:11,450
You could send a notice and a bag home to another kid.

539
00:29:11,450 --> 00:29:12,450
Exactly.

540
00:29:12,450 --> 00:29:13,450
That's an idea.

541
00:29:13,450 --> 00:29:14,450
Exactly.

542
00:29:14,450 --> 00:29:17,450
We did send the notices home last year.

543
00:29:17,450 --> 00:29:18,450
This year they did.

544
00:29:18,450 --> 00:29:19,450
They sent it this year.

545
00:29:19,450 --> 00:29:20,450
Sign a bag.

546
00:29:20,450 --> 00:29:21,450
Give them a bag.

547
00:29:21,450 --> 00:29:22,450
Give them a bag.

548
00:29:22,450 --> 00:29:25,450
And also, last year, you know, the littlest kids did, you know, just around the school.

549
00:29:25,450 --> 00:29:26,450
Yeah.

550
00:29:26,450 --> 00:29:27,450
You know, on a school day.

551
00:29:27,450 --> 00:29:28,450
But also, not just Saturday morning.

552
00:29:28,450 --> 00:29:29,450
It's true.

553
00:29:29,450 --> 00:29:30,450
Kids have activities and sports and, you know, whatever.

554
00:29:30,450 --> 00:29:31,450
So, I love this idea.

555
00:29:31,450 --> 00:29:32,450
Yeah.

556
00:29:32,450 --> 00:29:33,450
Okay.

557
00:29:33,450 --> 00:29:34,450
So, whoever is next year.

558
00:29:34,450 --> 00:29:35,450
Yeah.

559
00:29:35,450 --> 00:29:36,450
Okay.

560
00:29:36,450 --> 00:29:37,450
Yeah.

561
00:29:37,450 --> 00:29:38,450
Great.

562
00:29:38,450 --> 00:29:39,450
Okay.

563
00:29:39,450 --> 00:29:40,450
To make a note of this, Lorna and Deb, next year.

564
00:29:40,450 --> 00:29:41,769
We'll do it.

565
00:29:41,769 --> 00:29:42,769
Sure.

566
00:29:42,769 --> 00:29:43,769
Put that down, Lori.

567
00:29:43,769 --> 00:29:44,769
I got it.

568
00:29:44,769 --> 00:29:46,500
I'm good.

569
00:29:46,500 --> 00:29:47,500
Lest we were hacked.

570
00:29:47,500 --> 00:29:48,500
All right.

571
00:29:48,500 --> 00:29:49,500
We'll be here before we know it.

572
00:29:49,500 --> 00:29:50,500
I know.

573
00:29:50,500 --> 00:29:51,500
Yeah.

574
00:29:51,500 --> 00:29:52,500

Dispensary.

585
00:30:02,789 --> 00:30:03,789
Less was done.

586

Huh.

587
00:30:04,789 --> 00:30:06,019
Yeah.

588
00:30:06,019 --> 00:30:07,019
Space.

589
00:30:07,019 --> 00:30:08,019
Lots is done.

590
00:30:08,019 --> 00:30:09,019
Less is done.

591
00:30:09,019 --> 00:30:10,019

And here we go.

00:30:18,690 --> 00:30:19,869
How to receive a dental records isn't еæ

601
00:30:19,869 --> 00:30:21,430
This is practising Praecipitar's Carbon Number Thermometer?

602
00:30:21,430 --> 00:30:22,750
Yes.

603
00:30:22,750 --> 00:30:23,750
Oh.

604
00:30:23,750 --> 00:30:24,750
It's tecnologia.

605
00:30:24,750 --> 00:30:27,799
It's a recognizes engineer.

606
00:30:27,799 --> 00:30:28,799
Yes.

607
00:30:28,799 --> 00:30:29,799
The diplomatic company.

608
00:30:29,799 --> 00:30:30,799
Yeah.

609
00:30:30,799 --> 00:30:37,160
would like to use work with you and see if we could have this space at this time

610
00:30:37,160 --> 00:30:43,529
that's what we're doing could it could be down the road if some things don't

611
00:30:43,529 --> 00:30:55,880
work out we could go to the lawyers and now let's just be adults what was the

612
00:30:55,880 --> 00:31:08,390
takeover for testing conversation that's what prompted this meeting right and

613
00:31:08,390 --> 00:31:13,430
we're talked to the school board and we hope if this happens doesn't happen

614
00:31:13,430 --> 00:31:17,869
again they had three weeks notice they could have talked to the library and

615
00:31:17,869 --> 00:31:22,130
tried to work some out that's what the trustee said here that they would have

616
00:31:22,130 --> 00:31:28,500
been willing to work something out the library didn't have to be closed all day

617
00:31:28,500 --> 00:31:36,680
testing mostly in the mornings from what I understood I know one day they did not

618
00:31:36,680 --> 00:31:39,380
so well

619
00:31:44,099 --> 00:32:32,079
I wish they would do their executive sessions a lot of times you know I've

620
00:32:32,079 --> 00:32:36,900
gone and you sit there and say the pledge or whatever and they go into

621
00:32:36,900 --> 00:32:43,180
executive session and it's just like okay don't waste my time I mean yeah

622
00:32:44,019 --> 00:32:51,599
it's on purpose that's not cool see you later we have one right now and said

623
00:32:51,599 --> 00:32:55,420
I'm going in an executive session half you guys be going alright that's 20

624
00:32:55,420 --> 00:33:09,849
minutes yeah yeah that's so anything else on that special meeting other

625
00:33:09,849 --> 00:33:17,289
comments policy for appointments I'm drafting

626
00:33:17,289 --> 00:33:23,049
with Lori's help I drafted up a policy for appointments if we want to implement

627
00:33:23,049 --> 00:33:31,339
this if we don't that's fine it's just something to go by and it's up to you

628
00:33:31,339 --> 00:33:39,289
yeah it looks like this so I don't know if you all had a chance to read it over

629
00:33:39,289 --> 00:33:42,890
what you want to say about it or do nothing

630
00:33:42,890 --> 00:33:48,859
well one of the things that we tended not to do in the past is interview people

631
00:33:49,240 --> 00:33:56,619
we didn't have all of a sudden this and again this is I mentioned this before

632
00:33:56,619 --> 00:34:02,019
it's great we have people signing up joining and not new blood coming in you

633
00:34:02,019 --> 00:34:06,940
know elections where we have signs out there it's a very nice thing to see that

634
00:34:06,940 --> 00:34:11,559
people are getting more involved but what we have to keep in mind is a

635
00:34:11,559 --> 00:34:23,000
slapboard at least I can't talk very good tonight and I couldn't at the

636
00:34:23,000 --> 00:34:26,119
school board meeting but I seem to do a lot of talking

637
00:34:26,119 --> 00:34:28,840
yeah I do

638
00:34:28,840 --> 00:34:29,340
but

639
00:34:29,699 --> 00:34:34,639
one of the things I said at that school board meeting was it's all about our

640
00:34:34,639 --> 00:34:42,059
town it's not about other people outside this town supervisor unions and other

641
00:34:42,059 --> 00:34:48,980
school districts and so on town plan they've said well it might not be

642
00:34:48,980 --> 00:34:54,659
feasible for some things in this town that's right it might not be so it's all about

643
00:34:54,659 --> 00:35:00,960
what fits this town not what the state tries to shut down in great words am I

644
00:35:00,960 --> 00:35:01,139
good with that?

645
00:35:01,139 --> 00:35:04,840
the only thing that's not possible is giving the new front in father push back

646
00:35:04,840 --> 00:35:09,710
sometimes against that and I'll push back you know we have to start looking

647
00:35:09,710 --> 00:35:17,010
at our town Dave xo said this a long time go to all that live together I've

648
00:35:17,010 --> 00:35:39,920
hoped that you know at this work I'll see we can just say it's not this man

649
00:35:39,920 --> 00:35:46,320
I'm we could call this guy for appointments our polices sorry I was

650
00:35:46,320 --> 00:35:51,559
like you so much okay you know something crap okay um so I'm talking about the

651
00:35:51,559 --> 00:35:58,880
look it over keep it do whatever I like I like it whatever you think change the

652
00:35:58,880 --> 00:36:10,670
name guy that way it doesn't just a guy you need to be changed in there good

653
00:36:10,670 --> 00:36:24,989
with it want to accept this implement it try to follow it the main thing is is

654
00:36:24,989 --> 00:36:30,170
the appointed position in March because we're all over the board with that do we

655
00:36:30,170 --> 00:36:33,570
send the letter appointing them and they get back to us and say no I don't want

656
00:36:33,570 --> 00:36:40,650
it or do a letter and say you are appointed or you're not going to go

657
00:36:40,650 --> 00:36:44,010
back to me why should it be our responsibility to tell people who have

658
00:36:44,010 --> 00:36:48,989
seats that their seats are up and they need to be you know they need to see it

659
00:36:48,989 --> 00:36:55,889
should be our job to tell people okay so is this going to follow along what do we

660
00:36:55,889 --> 00:37:00,329
do here vacancies position so for appointed

661
00:37:00,329 --> 00:37:03,090
position a month before March election we're going

662
00:37:03,090 --> 00:37:03,429
to say

663
00:37:03,570 --> 00:37:22,409
that the position for whatever it might be people know that these vacancies if

664
00:37:22,409 --> 00:37:29,000
they want to stay in this position send a letter of interest to the first select

665
00:37:29,000 --> 00:37:34,349
board meeting in March so if there's so you're saying when when you're a three

666
00:37:34,349 --> 00:37:39,369
year plan for a member your time's up you're no different and the other guy

667
00:37:39,369 --> 00:37:41,730
right

668
00:37:41,730 --> 00:37:45,230
right

669
00:37:45,230 --> 00:37:52,989
you don't want to run wait to let him do it like a new guy

670
00:37:52,989 --> 00:37:59,099
just like with my sister yeah that's fun to try different ways different ways

671
00:37:59,099 --> 00:38:08,300
are consistent we should be consistent with all the questions to each individual

672
00:38:08,300 --> 00:38:11,360
yeah we shouldn't vary in questions because I'm a difference in their own

673
00:38:11,360 --> 00:38:15,639
reaches should all be you see some members saying

674
00:38:15,639 --> 00:38:21,320
What I hear from them is, I don't want to do it, but if nobody else wants it, I'll stay out of it.

675
00:38:21,760 --> 00:38:30,179
So if your time's up, and you don't send in your letter, is your position considered vacant?

676
00:38:31,489 --> 00:38:33,610
Your position is vacant, but not gone.

677
00:38:34,329 --> 00:38:36,489
It's vacant every time a position is up.

678
00:38:36,489 --> 00:38:37,530
The term is not gone.

679
00:38:38,309 --> 00:38:43,889
No, if your term's up, and you do not reinstate your letter of interest, is that position considered vacant?

680
00:38:43,889 --> 00:38:45,530
Yes, I think it is.

681
00:38:45,889 --> 00:38:48,829
But we're not going to tease you to say if you want to do it.

682
00:38:48,949 --> 00:38:49,489
It has to be.

683
00:38:49,489 --> 00:38:50,070
Right?

684
00:38:51,469 --> 00:39:00,760
Yeah, because I think we've had problems in the past with maybe emails not getting to all of you.

685
00:39:01,420 --> 00:39:07,980
So there possibly should be a procedure on how somebody should submit their letter of interest,

686
00:39:08,679 --> 00:39:10,380
rather than just an email.

687
00:39:11,429 --> 00:39:12,570
The lawyer gets a thousand.

688
00:39:14,110 --> 00:39:16,130
Submit it, who knows if it goes into junk.

689
00:39:16,130 --> 00:39:16,570
Yep.

690
00:39:16,789 --> 00:39:18,289
They're, they're possibly.

691
00:39:18,289 --> 00:39:20,969
The best way would be to hand it right through the window.

692
00:39:20,969 --> 00:39:21,469
Yep.

693
00:39:21,469 --> 00:39:22,769
And have it scanned.

694
00:39:22,769 --> 00:39:23,269
There you go.

695
00:39:23,269 --> 00:39:25,679
We'll submit a letter of interest.

696
00:39:25,679 --> 00:39:27,679
It is email, it needs to be acknowledged, yeah.

697
00:39:27,679 --> 00:39:28,679
Acknowledged, yes.

698
00:39:28,679 --> 00:39:31,679
How, how do you want to say that in here?

699
00:39:31,679 --> 00:39:36,130
We'll submit a letter of interest within two weeks, or.

700
00:39:36,130 --> 00:39:38,130
Just follow the election north laws.

701
00:39:38,130 --> 00:39:43,920
If you guys want to get a, you know, run for an office, you have to put papers in.

702
00:39:43,920 --> 00:39:45,920
No, this is an appointment.

703
00:39:45,920 --> 00:39:51,699
I understand that, but it would.

704
00:39:51,699 --> 00:39:54,139
Be sure that it's, be sure that it's here.

705
00:39:54,139 --> 00:40:01,480
Like the date, like the.

706
00:40:01,480 --> 00:40:02,980
Yeah.

707
00:40:02,980 --> 00:40:08,699
If you don't get it now.

708
00:40:08,699 --> 00:40:10,900
It's at two o'clock and they haven't checked them since.

709
00:40:10,900 --> 00:40:12,800
So if somebody's written me something at four.

710
00:40:12,800 --> 00:40:13,239
Yeah.

711
00:40:13,239 --> 00:40:16,300
And they want to be appointed tonight, you're not going to see it.

712
00:40:16,300 --> 00:40:18,360
So it's best to hand it in in person.

713
00:40:18,360 --> 00:40:21,440
Yeah, so we should have someone say, you know, make sure you're.

714
00:40:21,440 --> 00:40:24,659
Hand delivered, by hand delivered.

715
00:40:24,659 --> 00:40:27,329
That's going to be hard to do, but we'll be able to tell.

716
00:40:27,329 --> 00:40:31,420
Well, you can't hand deliver a, you know, for a meeting, see if they're.

717
00:40:31,420 --> 00:40:32,019
Right.

718
00:40:32,019 --> 00:40:33,019
Right.

719
00:40:33,019 --> 00:40:34,019
Right.

720
00:40:34,139 --> 00:40:35,139
So that's like a test.

721
00:40:35,139 --> 00:40:36,139
Hand delivered.

722
00:40:36,139 --> 00:40:37,139
Bring me the head of the dragon and you shall be appointed.

723
00:40:37,139 --> 00:40:39,679
I think we should have, we should have just in writing.

724
00:40:39,679 --> 00:40:40,679
Yes.

725
00:40:40,679 --> 00:40:41,679
In writing, not email.

726
00:40:41,679 --> 00:40:42,679
Oh, I like that.

727
00:40:42,679 --> 00:40:43,679
Sheila?

728
00:40:43,679 --> 00:40:45,679
I didn't send a letter in the beginning because I was told.

729
00:40:45,679 --> 00:40:46,900
As of that meeting, she did state my.

730
00:40:46,900 --> 00:40:47,900
I was told that, you know, by the.

731
00:40:47,900 --> 00:40:48,900
We knew that.

732
00:40:48,900 --> 00:40:49,900
That position.

733
00:40:49,900 --> 00:40:51,409
It was through a.

734
00:40:51,409 --> 00:40:52,409
There was a recommendation from the.

735
00:40:52,409 --> 00:40:53,409
The president's office.

736
00:40:53,409 --> 00:40:54,409
No.

737
00:40:54,409 --> 00:41:05,809
It was a recommendation from the.

738
00:41:05,809 --> 00:41:06,809
The president's office.

739
00:41:06,809 --> 00:41:07,809
Right.

740
00:41:07,809 --> 00:41:10,159
In the email.

741
00:41:10,159 --> 00:41:11,159
What was that?

742
00:41:11,159 --> 00:41:18,460
Yeah.

743
00:41:18,460 --> 00:41:41,829
It was a recommendation from the.

744
00:41:41,829 --> 00:41:44,170
The president's office.

745
00:41:44,170 --> 00:41:48,690
Yeah.

746
00:41:48,690 --> 00:41:49,690
The president's office.

747
00:41:49,690 --> 00:41:50,690
It was a.

748
00:41:50,690 --> 00:42:03,260
I thought you were talking about this newest position that's open now.

749
00:42:03,260 --> 00:42:04,639
You sent the letter in for that.

750
00:42:04,639 --> 00:42:07,639
If you're going to change your ex, I'm not giving letters.

751
00:42:07,639 --> 00:42:09,639
You sent the letter in for this new time.

752
00:42:09,639 --> 00:42:11,639
Yeah, after I gave the letter.

753
00:42:11,639 --> 00:42:17,099
Can we change it to that?

754
00:42:17,099 --> 00:42:22,099
Do you want to look at it one more time in the next meeting or do you want to?

755
00:42:22,099 --> 00:42:28,389
Okay, have Lori change it.

756
00:42:28,389 --> 00:42:30,389
This is the guide.

757
00:42:39,059 --> 00:42:40,059
Kind of like the Constitution?

758
00:42:40,059 --> 00:42:41,059
Yes.

759
00:42:50,840 --> 00:43:00,760
Resignation from Justice of the Peace.

760
00:43:00,760 --> 00:43:24,099
Locating as of May 1st, 2026 and I'm resigning as Justice of the Peace effective May 1st.

761
00:43:24,099 --> 00:43:26,099
Thank you for your consideration.

762
00:43:26,099 --> 00:43:28,099
Mary Lou Wright.

763
00:43:28,099 --> 00:43:34,289
Can I have a motion?

764
00:43:34,289 --> 00:43:37,289
Motion to accept her resignation with regret.

765
00:43:37,289 --> 00:43:39,289
She has moved to North Adams.

766
00:43:39,289 --> 00:43:42,469
Motion.

767
00:43:42,469 --> 00:43:47,300
And so now we have a vacant position.

768
00:43:47,300 --> 00:43:53,010
Put it to the test, Kurt.

769
00:43:53,010 --> 00:43:55,329
Alright, here we go.

770
00:43:55,329 --> 00:43:57,329
I'd like to nominate myself.

771
00:43:57,329 --> 00:43:59,780
This was an elected position.

772
00:43:59,780 --> 00:44:00,780
So...

773
00:44:00,780 --> 00:44:02,780
They motioned it.

774
00:44:02,780 --> 00:44:05,969
Good boy, you asked for it.

775
00:44:05,969 --> 00:44:10,230
The Justice of the Peace position is open.

776
00:44:10,230 --> 00:44:20,230
Any interested candidates will submit a letter of interest within two weeks of tonight's meeting in writing to the select board.

777
00:44:20,230 --> 00:44:34,849
So we have one already that came in by Connie York has expressed an interest.

778
00:44:34,849 --> 00:44:36,849
There's got to be a leak in the system.

779
00:44:36,849 --> 00:44:37,849
How did she know before?

780
00:44:37,849 --> 00:44:45,110
So we will keep this until next meeting if there's any other candidates.

781
00:44:45,110 --> 00:44:58,199
And as far as Justice of the Peace, this goes to the state and they will appoint until the election in November.

782
00:44:58,199 --> 00:45:02,199
And the term starts January 2027.

783
00:45:02,199 --> 00:45:21,409
So the select board can recommend one person or the select board could send in all of the letters of interest and let the state pick?

784
00:45:21,409 --> 00:45:32,489
Keep the can down the row.

785
00:45:32,489 --> 00:45:33,489
Keep the bucket means up.

786
00:45:33,489 --> 00:45:34,489
Go ahead.

787
00:45:34,489 --> 00:45:39,489
Well, you sounded tonight like, sorry.

788
00:45:39,489 --> 00:45:42,590
Please just make it down the row and find your cans.

789
00:45:42,590 --> 00:45:43,590
Okay.

790
00:45:43,590 --> 00:45:46,590
That's what I've been doing, kicking cans down the row.

791
00:45:46,590 --> 00:45:47,590
I don't drink Pats.

792
00:45:47,590 --> 00:45:49,590
I drink Coors Light.

793
00:45:49,590 --> 00:45:51,590
Did you change?

794
00:45:51,590 --> 00:45:53,590
I had to.

795
00:45:53,590 --> 00:45:56,590
Library Board of Trustees vacancy.

796
00:45:56,590 --> 00:46:01,909
That position has been vacant since the election.

797
00:46:01,909 --> 00:46:04,230
And we have one last vote.

798
00:46:04,230 --> 00:46:07,230
We have one interested candidate.

799
00:46:07,230 --> 00:46:12,230
But like our policy, we should advertise and say as of tonight.

800
00:46:12,230 --> 00:46:13,230
Did we not advertise?

801
00:46:13,230 --> 00:46:15,230
Did we do it last November?

802
00:46:15,230 --> 00:46:16,230
We did it last year.

803
00:46:16,230 --> 00:46:17,230
Okay.

804
00:46:17,230 --> 00:46:19,230
This has already been advertised.

805
00:46:19,230 --> 00:46:20,230
Yes.

806
00:46:20,230 --> 00:46:21,230
That's been advertised.

807
00:46:21,230 --> 00:46:22,230
I think we discussed it last time.

808
00:46:22,230 --> 00:46:24,230
The advertisement says as long as it's in the minutes.

809
00:46:24,230 --> 00:46:26,230
Library Board of Trustees.

810
00:46:26,230 --> 00:46:27,230
Yes.

811
00:46:27,230 --> 00:46:29,900
And we only have one candidate.

812
00:46:29,900 --> 00:46:32,159
So we don't have to do it, do we?

813
00:46:32,159 --> 00:46:33,159
No.

814
00:46:33,159 --> 00:46:34,159
So you want to?

815
00:46:34,159 --> 00:46:36,500
Yes.

816
00:46:36,500 --> 00:46:37,760
That's it.

817
00:46:37,760 --> 00:46:38,760
It was in the minutes, so.

818
00:46:38,760 --> 00:46:39,760
Victoria.

819
00:46:39,760 --> 00:46:40,760
Victoria.

820
00:46:40,760 --> 00:46:41,760
Yes.

821
00:46:41,760 --> 00:46:42,760
Yes.

822
00:46:42,760 --> 00:46:43,760
Victoria.

823
00:46:43,760 --> 00:46:44,760
Until the next election.

824
00:46:44,760 --> 00:46:45,760
Until the March election.

825
00:46:45,760 --> 00:46:46,760
All right.

826
00:46:46,760 --> 00:46:47,760
Appointed.

827
00:46:47,760 --> 00:46:48,760

I don't know why I just felt as if this was talking.

875
00:48:02,920 --> 00:48:05,440
Oh yeah, and that's Pam Torrey.

876
00:48:05,440 --> 00:48:07,079
Jennifer, weren't you on before?

877
00:48:07,079 --> 00:48:07,579
I was.

878
00:48:07,579 --> 00:48:09,059
So we got on before.

879
00:48:09,059 --> 00:48:10,559
The last time we did the body house.

880
00:48:10,559 --> 00:48:12,559
I think Aaron looked back at her.

881
00:48:12,559 --> 00:48:13,059
Aaron?

882
00:48:13,059 --> 00:48:14,639
I think he backed up.

883
00:48:14,639 --> 00:48:17,219
OK, well, he didn't send a letter saying he did.

884
00:48:17,219 --> 00:48:19,340
So I was just, OK.

885
00:48:19,340 --> 00:48:23,699
Well, if he could let us know that, it would be good.

886
00:48:23,699 --> 00:48:24,380
Who's that?

887
00:48:24,380 --> 00:48:25,380
Aaron.

888
00:48:25,380 --> 00:48:26,900
He called me personally, too.

889
00:48:26,900 --> 00:48:29,539
And I told him that he said he was going to go his way.

890
00:48:29,539 --> 00:48:30,039
Yeah.

891
00:48:30,039 --> 00:48:30,539
OK.

892
00:48:30,539 --> 00:48:35,119
He said the brown barrel of .

893
00:48:35,119 --> 00:48:39,579
I think you should contact him, though, to make sure.

894
00:48:39,579 --> 00:48:44,420
Yeah, I have not heard from him that he hasn't wanted to do it.

895
00:48:44,420 --> 00:48:47,480
Yeah, I would like to make sure from him.

896
00:48:47,480 --> 00:48:49,119
I'm not saying I believe him.

897
00:48:49,119 --> 00:48:50,079
No, I'm just saying.

898
00:48:50,079 --> 00:48:51,380
I just want to make sure.

899
00:48:51,380 --> 00:48:52,880
Trump the bearer of hope.

900
00:48:52,880 --> 00:48:53,380
Pam?

901
00:48:53,380 --> 00:48:54,880
There you go.

902
00:48:54,880 --> 00:48:55,380
Jennifer.

903
00:48:55,380 --> 00:48:56,300
There you go.

904
00:48:56,300 --> 00:48:57,800
Raise the pace.

905
00:48:57,800 --> 00:48:59,679
How many positions do we have this week?

906
00:48:59,679 --> 00:49:00,179
One.

907
00:49:00,179 --> 00:49:02,630
One.

908
00:49:02,630 --> 00:49:10,400
So according to our policy, do we get to do an interview, then?

909
00:49:10,400 --> 00:49:12,239
Can we do it after tonight's meeting?

910
00:49:12,239 --> 00:49:15,559
We're having an executive session, if they are willing to wait.

911
00:49:15,559 --> 00:49:18,199
Well, Aaron's not here.

912
00:49:18,199 --> 00:49:18,960
Aaron's not here.

913
00:49:18,960 --> 00:49:20,840
But that's what we can do.

914
00:49:20,840 --> 00:49:24,880
We should formulate questions so we have them all the same.

915
00:49:24,880 --> 00:49:26,440
We can't be asking different questions.

916
00:49:26,440 --> 00:49:26,940
Yeah.

917
00:49:26,940 --> 00:49:27,440
OK.

918
00:49:27,440 --> 00:49:28,179
It's not a good habit.

919
00:49:28,179 --> 00:49:30,480
Well, we could do that in an executive session, if you will.

920
00:49:30,480 --> 00:49:30,980
Yeah.

921
00:49:30,980 --> 00:49:34,980
Just come up with a handful of questions and say, this is what we're looking for.

922
00:49:34,980 --> 00:49:35,480
OK.

923
00:49:35,480 --> 00:49:38,010
Questions.

924
00:49:38,010 --> 00:49:53,719
We could do it before the next select board meeting, go into executive session before the meeting.

925
00:49:53,719 --> 00:49:55,719
Enter candidates.

926
00:49:55,719 --> 00:49:58,719
That would be .

927
00:49:58,719 --> 00:50:01,719
Not for that situation, right?

928
00:50:01,719 --> 00:50:02,219
No.

929
00:50:02,219 --> 00:50:02,719
All right.

930
00:50:02,719 --> 00:50:06,750
So we've got four interested parties.

931
00:50:06,750 --> 00:50:08,940
And we will...

932
00:50:08,940 --> 00:50:13,420
We'll interview next select board meeting.

933
00:50:13,420 --> 00:50:15,420
Matter of fact, why can't we do this?

934
00:50:15,420 --> 00:50:36,659
Why can't we have the meeting?

935
00:50:36,659 --> 00:50:40,900
Yeah.

936
00:50:40,900 --> 00:50:41,900
What's that?

937
00:50:41,900 --> 00:50:43,900
Why are you having an executive session?

938
00:50:43,900 --> 00:50:46,429
Is it in regards to the agency?

939
00:50:46,429 --> 00:50:50,369
Yes.

940
00:50:50,369 --> 00:50:50,869
Yep.

941
00:50:50,869 --> 00:50:52,719
If you don't mind.

942
00:50:52,719 --> 00:50:59,449
According to the planning commission meeting, they had read a pamphlet about something's changed.

943
00:50:59,449 --> 00:51:00,929
Is that true?

944
00:51:00,929 --> 00:51:01,429
Is that true?

945
00:51:01,429 --> 00:51:02,429
Yes, we have the letter.

946
00:51:02,429 --> 00:51:04,219
We have another candidate.

947
00:51:04,219 --> 00:51:04,719
No, no.

948
00:51:04,719 --> 00:51:05,219
I understand.

949
00:51:05,219 --> 00:51:06,719
But let me finish what I have to say.

950
00:51:06,719 --> 00:51:08,460
They went into...

951
00:51:08,460 --> 00:51:12,110
You did ask a question.

952
00:51:12,110 --> 00:51:12,610
Oh, I'm sorry.

953
00:51:12,610 --> 00:51:14,719
I said, well, I'm going to ask the question.

954
00:51:14,719 --> 00:51:15,469
I answered it.

955
00:51:15,469 --> 00:51:20,730
You're throwing me off.

956
00:51:20,730 --> 00:51:30,639
At 6.05 and exit, the next statement was famously recommended pamphlet.

957
00:51:30,639 --> 00:51:37,860
So I have to assume they didn't say what the executive session was for.

958
00:51:37,860 --> 00:51:38,860
I'm just telling you.

959
00:51:38,860 --> 00:51:39,860
That's the planning commission, right?

960
00:51:39,860 --> 00:51:40,360
No.

961
00:51:40,360 --> 00:51:45,860
But I have to assume, by the way it's written, is that they were discussing who they were going to nominate.

962
00:51:45,860 --> 00:51:48,139
I just...

963
00:51:48,139 --> 00:51:52,699
Let them know and you know.

964
00:51:52,699 --> 00:51:54,800
As far as appointments, that's open meeting.

965
00:51:54,800 --> 00:52:04,150
When you go in and start discussing people in an executive session, other than personnel or sickness, employment...

966
00:52:04,150 --> 00:52:05,150
Interviews.

967
00:52:05,150 --> 00:52:06,219
Interviews.

968
00:52:06,219 --> 00:52:07,219
You can't...

969
00:52:07,219 --> 00:52:12,699
You have to have an open meeting with a lot of the public to give input.

970
00:52:12,699 --> 00:52:17,760
So you can't go to an executive session and pick a candidate.

971
00:52:17,760 --> 00:52:19,760
They could recommend...

972
00:52:19,760 --> 00:52:21,760
Not an executive session.

973
00:52:21,760 --> 00:52:22,760
No.

974
00:52:22,760 --> 00:52:24,760
They can recommend anybody.

975
00:52:24,760 --> 00:52:25,260
Yeah.

976
00:52:25,260 --> 00:52:32,260
But by law, the only recommendation that they give is for the AO.

977
00:52:32,260 --> 00:52:34,570
I'm just reading.

978
00:52:34,570 --> 00:52:35,570
Yeah.

979
00:52:35,570 --> 00:52:36,570
I can hear what you're saying.

980
00:52:36,570 --> 00:52:37,570
And I agree.

981
00:52:37,570 --> 00:52:38,570
And that goes for you guys, too.

982
00:52:38,570 --> 00:52:41,570
When you go to appoint, you have to allow the public.

983
00:52:41,570 --> 00:52:42,570
Yeah.

984
00:52:42,570 --> 00:52:44,570
Now, on personnel, that's different.

985
00:52:44,570 --> 00:52:46,570
Insurance, blah, blah, blah.

986
00:52:46,570 --> 00:52:50,570
And so I have a letter I'm going to give Lori here.

987
00:52:50,570 --> 00:52:51,570
I want to...

988
00:52:51,570 --> 00:52:53,570
I'm going to address this to the planning commission.

989
00:52:53,570 --> 00:52:55,570
I want to know how they're going to rectify the situation.

990
00:52:55,570 --> 00:52:56,570
The future.

991
00:52:56,570 --> 00:52:57,570
Of not doing it.

992
00:52:57,570 --> 00:52:58,960
Okay?

993
00:52:58,960 --> 00:52:59,960
And it's a copy to you.

994
00:52:59,960 --> 00:53:00,960
Okay.

995
00:53:00,960 --> 00:53:01,960
And I'm not trying to be a hard guy about it.

996
00:53:01,960 --> 00:53:02,960
But when you start closing meetings like that.

997
00:53:02,960 --> 00:53:03,960
No.

998
00:53:03,960 --> 00:53:04,960
Having this type of stuff go on.

999
00:53:04,960 --> 00:53:05,960
It's not fair.

1000
00:53:05,960 --> 00:53:06,960
It's not fair to anybody.

1001
00:53:06,960 --> 00:53:07,960
Maybe I wanted to put in for that job.

1002
00:53:07,960 --> 00:53:08,960
Maybe I'm the most qualified guy.

1003
00:53:08,960 --> 00:53:09,960
They don't know anything about me or my background.

1004
00:53:09,960 --> 00:53:10,960
Nothing.

1005
00:53:10,960 --> 00:53:11,960
Right?

1006
00:53:11,960 --> 00:53:12,960
Other than maybe I was in jail one time.

1007
00:53:12,960 --> 00:53:13,960
But other than that, there's really nothing.

1008
00:53:13,960 --> 00:53:14,960
Your file's in the mail.

1009
00:53:14,960 --> 00:53:15,960
It's in the mail.

1010
00:53:15,960 --> 00:53:16,960
It's in the mail.

1011
00:53:16,960 --> 00:53:17,960
It's in the mail.

1012
00:53:17,960 --> 00:53:18,960
It's in the mail.

1013
00:53:18,960 --> 00:53:19,960
It's in the mail.

1014
00:53:19,960 --> 00:53:20,960
It's in the mail.

1015
00:53:20,960 --> 00:53:21,960
It's in the mail.

1016
00:53:21,960 --> 00:53:22,960
It's in the mail.

1017
00:53:22,960 --> 00:53:23,960
It's in the mail.

1018
00:53:23,960 --> 00:53:24,960
But other than that, there's really nothing.

1019
00:53:24,960 --> 00:53:28,710
Sheila?

1020
00:53:28,710 --> 00:53:29,710
Linda got out.

1021
00:53:29,710 --> 00:53:30,710
I'd like you to just take a moment.

1022
00:53:30,710 --> 00:53:31,840
Sheila?

1023
00:53:31,840 --> 00:53:32,840
Yeah.

1024
00:53:32,840 --> 00:53:33,840
I'd just like to take a moment.

1025
00:53:33,840 --> 00:53:34,840
Do you have any more?

1026
00:53:34,840 --> 00:53:35,840
I can't hear you.

1027
00:53:35,840 --> 00:53:36,840
Go ahead again.

1028
00:53:36,840 --> 00:53:37,840
What's your hearing ache?

1029
00:53:37,840 --> 00:53:38,840
Oh, I can't hear her all the time.

1030
00:53:38,840 --> 00:53:39,840
My head's clogged up.

1031
00:53:39,840 --> 00:53:40,840
Give me a break.

1032
00:53:40,840 --> 00:53:41,840
I'm screaming right now.

1033
00:53:41,840 --> 00:53:42,840
Mike, Mike.

1034
00:53:42,840 --> 00:53:43,840
Mike, Mike.

1035
00:53:43,840 --> 00:53:44,840
Mike, Mike.

1036
00:53:44,840 --> 00:53:45,840
Mike, Mike.

1037
00:53:45,840 --> 00:53:46,840
Mike, Mike.

1038
00:53:46,840 --> 00:53:47,840
Mike, Mike.

1039
00:53:47,840 --> 00:53:48,840
Mike, Mike.

1040
00:53:48,840 --> 00:53:49,840
Mike, Mike.

1041
00:53:49,840 --> 00:53:50,840
Mike, Mike.

1042
00:53:50,840 --> 00:53:51,840
Mike, Mike.

1043
00:53:51,840 --> 00:53:52,840
Mike, Mike.

1044
00:53:52,840 --> 00:53:53,840
Mike, Mike.

1045
00:53:53,840 --> 00:53:54,840
Mike, Mike.

1046
00:53:54,840 --> 00:53:55,840
SPEAKER 4

1047
00:53:55,840 --> 00:53:57,840
You don't follow all their rules, that they like everyone to go down the line to

1048
00:53:57,840 --> 00:53:59,840
give or give, yes, or no, no.

1049
00:53:59,840 --> 00:54:00,840
I ask questions.

1050
00:54:00,840 --> 00:54:08,690
I think they like that, and I think they don't want me there, because they can't get

1051
00:54:08,690 --> 00:54:14,269
everything that they want unless they have the right people and that.

1052
00:54:14,269 --> 00:54:16,690
And in my book, that's not fair.

1053
00:54:16,690 --> 00:54:23,070
I mean, I've put on a long time on these.

1054
00:54:23,070 --> 00:54:26,230
And when I say no, it's just because that does not seem right.

1055
00:54:26,230 --> 00:54:26,329
But we have this in our obstacles.

1056
00:54:26,789 --> 00:54:29,519
We have our interview with you.

1057
00:54:29,519 --> 00:54:31,750
Now you guys speak up.

1058
00:54:31,750 --> 00:54:47,510
Oh.

1059
00:54:47,510 --> 00:54:49,510
They're just following their suit where they can get where they want.

1060
00:54:49,510 --> 00:55:02,360
Who wants them?

1061
00:55:02,360 --> 00:55:04,360
Since 1990 something.

1062
00:55:04,360 --> 00:55:06,519
I'd like to put you on first.

1063
00:55:06,519 --> 00:55:08,519
I'm just going to ask the question of dates.

1064
00:55:08,519 --> 00:55:11,960
Being able to go into an executive session

1065
00:55:11,960 --> 00:55:13,960
to talk about these things.

1066
00:55:13,960 --> 00:55:16,019
Is it the same thing for us?

1067
00:55:16,019 --> 00:55:20,739
Come on.

1068
00:55:20,739 --> 00:55:24,880
Then we can make nominations.

1069
00:55:24,880 --> 00:55:26,880
I don't even make decisions.

1070
00:55:26,880 --> 00:55:28,880
You should probably check on that.

1071
00:55:28,880 --> 00:55:30,880
I think we can.

1072
00:55:30,880 --> 00:55:32,880
I'm not going to argue with that.

1073
00:55:32,880 --> 00:55:34,880
We can treat a board member

1074
00:55:34,880 --> 00:55:36,880
just like an employee.

1075
00:55:36,880 --> 00:55:39,139
The law is very specific.

1076
00:55:39,139 --> 00:55:41,139
The law is very specific.

1077
00:55:41,139 --> 00:55:43,139
They're appointed by us.

1078
00:55:43,139 --> 00:55:45,139
I understand, but I'm just saying

1079
00:55:45,139 --> 00:55:47,139
during that process

1080
00:55:47,139 --> 00:55:49,139
it's not

1081
00:55:49,139 --> 00:55:51,139
supposed to be an open meeting.

1082
00:55:53,139 --> 00:55:55,139
No.

1083
00:55:55,139 --> 00:55:57,139
Yes.

1084
00:55:57,139 --> 00:55:59,139
We have to vote.

1085
00:55:59,139 --> 00:56:01,139
I don't think it's a good idea.

1086
00:56:05,139 --> 00:56:07,139
I think it says something.

1087
00:56:07,139 --> 00:56:09,139
Because you would have personal

1088
00:56:09,139 --> 00:56:11,139
information.

1089
00:56:11,139 --> 00:56:13,139
You could ask someone

1090
00:56:13,139 --> 00:56:15,139
not that we would

1091
00:56:15,139 --> 00:56:17,139
but you could ask someone

1092
00:56:17,139 --> 00:56:19,139
do you do drugs?

1093
00:56:19,139 --> 00:56:21,139
That could be one of our

1094
00:56:21,139 --> 00:56:23,139
criteria.

1095
00:56:23,139 --> 00:56:25,139
I'm thinking about it.

1096
00:56:25,139 --> 00:56:27,139
Yes.

1097
00:56:27,139 --> 00:56:29,139
What came just came.

1098
00:56:29,139 --> 00:56:31,139
Does it work?

1099
00:56:31,139 --> 00:56:33,139
No.

1100
00:56:33,139 --> 00:56:35,139
It's making it worse.

1101
00:56:35,139 --> 00:56:37,139
Can I make a comment on this?

1102
00:56:37,139 --> 00:56:39,139
Why not?

1103
00:56:39,139 --> 00:56:41,460
I would just like to advocate

1104
00:56:41,460 --> 00:56:43,460
for the idea that

1105
00:56:43,460 --> 00:56:45,460
if people are offering their help

1106
00:56:45,460 --> 00:56:47,460
and time

1107
00:56:47,460 --> 00:56:49,460
that we should find a way

1108
00:56:49,460 --> 00:56:51,460
to use them and not

1109
00:56:51,460 --> 00:56:53,460
like exclude

1110
00:56:53,460 --> 00:56:55,460
anybody that wants to serve

1111
00:56:55,460 --> 00:56:57,460
and I don't know how we do that

1112
00:56:57,460 --> 00:56:59,460
necessarily.

1113
00:56:59,460 --> 00:57:01,460
It doesn't necessarily mean

1114
00:57:01,460 --> 00:57:03,460
everybody is on the same

1115
00:57:03,460 --> 00:57:05,460
commission or whatever but

1116
00:57:05,460 --> 00:57:07,460
I would assume that there are

1117
00:57:07,460 --> 00:57:09,460
places that people can help.

1118
00:57:09,460 --> 00:57:12,519
So there should be a feeling

1119
00:57:12,519 --> 00:57:16,920
of inclusivity regardless of

1120
00:57:16,920 --> 00:57:21,570
like you know.

1121
00:57:21,570 --> 00:57:25,329
They did that 10 years ago

1122
00:57:25,329 --> 00:57:27,329
much of the time they fought it

1123
00:57:27,329 --> 00:57:29,750
back down to five again.

1124
00:57:29,750 --> 00:57:32,099
It has sincerity.

1125
00:57:32,099 --> 00:57:34,099
Sometimes you're more effective

1126
00:57:34,099 --> 00:57:37,119
if you're just in the problem.

1127
00:57:37,119 --> 00:57:39,119
You've got to

1128
00:57:39,119 --> 00:57:53,119
just see where I'm going.

1129
00:57:53,119 --> 00:57:55,119
Come to the visioning.

1130
00:57:55,119 --> 00:57:57,989
Are we looking for assessors?

1131
00:57:57,989 --> 00:57:59,989
Listers.

1132
00:57:59,989 --> 00:58:01,989
Listers.

1133
00:58:01,989 --> 00:58:03,989
Listers.

1134
00:58:03,989 --> 00:58:05,989
So right now if you don't get on

1135
00:58:05,989 --> 00:58:07,989
as a plan board member

1136
00:58:07,989 --> 00:58:09,989
there's Listers and there's

1137
00:58:09,989 --> 00:58:11,989
justices of peace openings right now.

1138
00:58:11,989 --> 00:58:13,989
And it might even be

1139
00:58:13,989 --> 00:58:15,989
the tree warden might be open too.

1140
00:58:15,989 --> 00:58:17,989
I'm not sure.

1141
00:58:17,989 --> 00:58:19,989
And then we select work from March

1142
00:58:19,989 --> 00:58:21,989
to April.

1143
00:58:21,989 --> 00:58:23,989
30 bucks a night.

1144
00:58:23,989 --> 00:58:25,989
Sometimes it's five dollars a night.

1145
00:58:29,989 --> 00:58:31,989
My codeed's working.

1146
00:58:31,989 --> 00:58:33,989
Where are they?

1147
00:58:33,989 --> 00:58:35,989
Ole Miss' 911 numbering update.

1148
00:58:44,019 --> 00:58:46,019
Bob Briggs gave us a list

1149
00:58:46,019 --> 00:58:48,019
with about 80 people on it

1150
00:58:48,019 --> 00:58:50,019
that do not have their 911 numbers

1151
00:58:50,019 --> 00:58:52,340
displayed properly.

1152
00:58:52,340 --> 00:58:54,340
Do you know where

1153
00:58:54,340 --> 00:58:56,340
we got the sign tips from Tom's?

1154
00:58:56,340 --> 00:58:58,559
Have they come yet?

1155
00:59:02,559 --> 00:59:04,559
Tom's in violation too.

1156
00:59:04,559 --> 00:59:06,559
Can I just get a little history?

1157
00:59:06,559 --> 00:59:08,659
What's that?

1158
00:59:08,659 --> 00:59:10,880
They have to be reflective, correct?

1159
00:59:10,880 --> 00:59:12,880
Contrasting.

1160
00:59:12,880 --> 00:59:14,880
Do they have to be reflective?

1161
00:59:14,880 --> 00:59:16,880
So am I on there?

1162
00:59:16,880 --> 00:59:18,880
Because cars are reflective and contrasting.

1163
00:59:18,880 --> 00:59:20,880
So how do they know they're reflective

1164
00:59:20,880 --> 00:59:22,880
unless they go at night?

1165
00:59:22,880 --> 00:59:24,880
Right.

1166
00:59:24,880 --> 00:59:26,880
If you have a $15 donation

1167
00:59:26,880 --> 00:59:28,880
to the Volunteer Fire Department

1168
00:59:28,880 --> 00:59:30,880
they will make you one

1169
00:59:30,880 --> 00:59:32,880
that fits the criteria.

1170
00:59:32,880 --> 00:59:34,880
And you can throw it on

1171
00:59:34,880 --> 00:59:36,880
your CD or truck and leave it there.

1172
00:59:36,880 --> 00:59:38,880
Mine's propped up inside my house.

1173
00:59:48,880 --> 00:59:50,880
Okay, so we got the letter

1174
00:59:50,880 --> 00:59:52,880
from Bob Briggs.

1175
00:59:52,880 --> 00:59:54,880
Have you guys read it?

1176
00:59:54,880 --> 00:59:56,880
These are things that I'd like to correct

1177
00:59:56,880 --> 00:59:58,880
or just grammar there.

1178
00:59:58,880 --> 01:00:01,460
And maybe put a statement.

1179
01:00:01,460 --> 01:00:03,460
Please display your numbers properly.

1180
01:00:03,460 --> 01:00:06,610
I think that statement should be in there.

1181
01:00:06,610 --> 01:00:08,610
So if it's okay

1182
01:00:08,610 --> 01:00:14,099
I'll tell Bob to send them out

1183
01:00:14,099 --> 01:00:16,099
and go with it.

1184
01:00:16,099 --> 01:00:18,099
There's some on here

1185
01:00:18,099 --> 01:00:23,559
that have like

1186
01:00:23,559 --> 01:00:28,369
the boxes

1187
01:00:28,369 --> 01:00:32,639
around town

1188
01:00:32,639 --> 01:00:34,900
there's four or five boxes.

1189
01:00:34,900 --> 01:00:36,900
What if somebody's working there

1190
01:00:36,900 --> 01:00:38,900
and gets hurt there?

1191
01:00:38,900 --> 01:00:40,900
That should be displayed.

1192
01:00:40,900 --> 01:00:43,800
Fair point.

1193
01:00:43,800 --> 01:00:47,269
Put your number up on your box.

1194
01:00:47,269 --> 01:00:50,579
Are we going to pick and choose?

1195
01:00:50,579 --> 01:00:55,010
Then figure out who they're going to send it to.

1196
01:00:55,010 --> 01:00:57,010
So we've got 80-some people on here.

1197
01:00:57,010 --> 01:00:59,010
I spoke to one and...

1198
01:00:59,010 --> 01:01:01,809
Am I on there?

1199
01:01:01,809 --> 01:01:07,780
No. Are your numbers up?

1200
01:01:07,780 --> 01:01:09,809
No.

1201
01:01:09,809 --> 01:01:14,400
How come you're not on the list?

1202
01:01:14,400 --> 01:01:16,400
What's your number down there?

1203
01:01:16,400 --> 01:01:18,400
You're not on the list.

1204
01:01:18,400 --> 01:01:20,400
They must have found it.

1205
01:01:20,400 --> 01:01:23,679
I'm on the list.

1206
01:01:23,679 --> 01:01:25,679
Well, maybe you should display them.

1207
01:01:25,679 --> 01:01:27,679
I got the sign.

1208
01:01:27,679 --> 01:01:33,199
I paid for the sign.

1209
01:01:33,199 --> 01:01:35,969
Oh, and the last

1210
01:01:35,969 --> 01:01:39,250
are we okay with the Stanford

1211
01:01:39,250 --> 01:01:41,250
volunteer fire department can provide

1212
01:01:41,250 --> 01:01:43,250
or you can buy your own.

1213
01:01:43,250 --> 01:01:45,250
Give people the option.

1214
01:01:45,250 --> 01:01:47,409
Are you putting your rules

1215
01:01:47,409 --> 01:01:49,409
in the letter?

1216
01:01:49,409 --> 01:01:51,730
Well, he says

1217
01:01:51,730 --> 01:01:53,730
that's what I want to make sure of.

1218
01:01:53,730 --> 01:01:55,730
Four inch

1219
01:01:55,730 --> 01:01:57,730
the town requires

1220
01:01:57,730 --> 01:01:59,730
reflective numbers or a sign

1221
01:01:59,730 --> 01:02:01,730
with four inch contrasting numbers.

1222
01:02:01,730 --> 01:02:05,239
So that's

1223
01:02:05,239 --> 01:02:07,590
what it has in the letter.

1224
01:02:07,590 --> 01:02:09,590
Buy your own.

1225
01:02:09,590 --> 01:02:12,550
Contrasting so it's not reflective?

1226
01:02:12,550 --> 01:02:14,550
The town requires reflective numbers

1227
01:02:14,550 --> 01:02:16,550
or a sign with a four inch

1228
01:02:16,550 --> 01:02:18,550
contrasting numbers.

1229
01:02:18,550 --> 01:02:21,250
Bill.

1230
01:02:21,250 --> 01:02:24,469
The state.

1231
01:02:24,469 --> 01:02:28,710
We're just copying last.

1232
01:02:28,710 --> 01:02:31,119
The state.

1233
01:02:31,119 --> 01:02:33,119
Yeah.

1234
01:02:33,119 --> 01:02:42,130
The state, yes.

1235
01:02:42,130 --> 01:02:46,239
Blame it on the state.

1236
01:02:46,239 --> 01:02:48,239
I'm sorry, I got sidetracked.

1237
01:02:48,239 --> 01:02:50,239
I had one more question.

1238
01:02:50,239 --> 01:02:52,239
First of all, how many people

1239
01:02:52,239 --> 01:02:54,920
are open position to the left

1240
01:02:54,920 --> 01:02:56,920
in the planning warden?

1241
01:02:56,920 --> 01:02:59,269
How many people are present?

1242
01:02:59,269 --> 01:03:01,269
Are we talking about one position?

1243
01:03:01,269 --> 01:03:03,269
Is one position open?

1244
01:03:03,269 --> 01:03:05,269
For seven?

1245
01:03:05,269 --> 01:03:07,269
Five.

1246
01:03:07,269 --> 01:03:09,269
Oh, there's seven.

1247
01:03:09,269 --> 01:03:11,269
There's seven.

1248
01:03:11,269 --> 01:03:13,269
Here's my question.

1249
01:03:13,269 --> 01:03:15,269
Are you a full voting member

1250
01:03:15,269 --> 01:03:17,269
of the planning commission as a member?

1251
01:03:17,269 --> 01:03:19,269
Yes.

1252
01:03:19,269 --> 01:03:21,269
Okay, so that's something you guys

1253
01:03:21,269 --> 01:03:23,269
really ought to think about

1254
01:03:23,269 --> 01:03:25,269
and Deb ought to think about

1255
01:03:25,269 --> 01:03:27,269
simply because you can't legislate

1256
01:03:27,269 --> 01:03:29,269
and adjudicate.

1257
01:03:29,269 --> 01:03:31,269
Kurt knows this better than anybody.

1258
01:03:31,269 --> 01:03:33,269
He says it a million times.

1259
01:03:33,269 --> 01:03:36,449
She really shouldn't hold positions.

1260
01:03:36,449 --> 01:03:38,449
She just shouldn't.

1261
01:03:38,449 --> 01:03:40,449
If she wants to DAO, DAO.

1262
01:03:40,449 --> 01:03:42,449
Okay.

1263
01:03:42,449 --> 01:03:44,519
That's why she had to step down.

1264
01:03:44,519 --> 01:03:46,519
Okay.

1265
01:03:46,519 --> 01:03:48,519
According to the state,

1266
01:03:48,519 --> 01:03:50,519
but they don't recommend it.

1267
01:03:50,519 --> 01:03:52,519
It's one of those deals.

1268
01:03:52,519 --> 01:03:54,579
So, we got enough trouble in this town.

1269
01:03:54,579 --> 01:03:56,579
We really do.

1270
01:03:56,579 --> 01:03:58,579
Open up another seat for somebody.

1271
01:03:58,579 --> 01:04:00,579
Save yourself a lot of trouble.

1272
01:04:00,579 --> 01:04:02,579
Trust me.

1273
01:04:02,579 --> 01:04:04,579
And I mean this from the bottom of my heart.

1274
01:04:04,579 --> 01:04:06,900
Save yourself a lot of trouble here.

1275
01:04:06,900 --> 01:04:09,599
I'm fine with it.

1276
01:04:09,599 --> 01:04:11,599
Whatever you guys decide, I'm fine with it.

1277
01:04:11,599 --> 01:04:22,760
We've had this discussion before.

1278
01:04:22,760 --> 01:04:40,630
You guys asked me just to stay.

1279
01:04:40,630 --> 01:04:46,150
There was a limit of

1280
01:04:46,150 --> 01:04:52,599
there were nine.

1281
01:04:52,599 --> 01:04:54,659
One, I believe.

1282
01:04:54,659 --> 01:05:12,880
New business.

1283
01:05:12,880 --> 01:05:16,130
Lori sent us a two-page document

1284
01:05:16,130 --> 01:05:23,760
about the remount power.

1285
01:05:23,760 --> 01:05:25,960
It's a process

1286
01:05:25,960 --> 01:05:30,039
that they have to do.

1287
01:05:30,039 --> 01:05:32,039
Notify the area

1288
01:05:32,039 --> 01:05:34,610
planning and select board.

1289
01:05:34,610 --> 01:05:42,690
Get the stakes off my lawn.

1290
01:05:42,690 --> 01:05:45,269
That's where there's

1291
01:05:45,269 --> 01:05:47,880
I'm guessing.

1292
01:05:47,880 --> 01:05:53,269
They're going to put

1293
01:05:53,269 --> 01:05:58,440
an ATO.

1294
01:05:58,440 --> 01:06:00,469
They're getting ready

1295
01:06:00,469 --> 01:06:02,469
for all those windmills.

1296
01:06:02,469 --> 01:06:04,469
I wish they would go up my driveway

1297
01:06:04,469 --> 01:06:06,469
instead of through the pine trees.

1298
01:06:06,469 --> 01:06:09,300
They're all falling down.

1299
01:06:09,300 --> 01:06:11,300
This is for the ones up in Searsburg.

1300
01:06:11,300 --> 01:06:13,300
They're going to remove 11

1301
01:06:13,300 --> 01:06:15,300
and put up three large

1302
01:06:15,300 --> 01:06:17,300
bigger ones

1303
01:06:17,300 --> 01:06:19,300
that are currently

1304
01:06:19,300 --> 01:06:21,300
the second batch.

1305
01:06:21,300 --> 01:06:23,300
They're supposed to be 110 feet

1306
01:06:23,300 --> 01:06:25,300
or something like that.

1307
01:06:25,300 --> 01:06:27,300
Or maybe 70 feet.

1308
01:06:27,300 --> 01:06:29,300
That's why all the new bucket trucks

1309
01:06:29,300 --> 01:06:31,300
are blown up.

1310
01:06:31,300 --> 01:06:33,460
So this is

1311
01:06:33,460 --> 01:06:35,460
just notifying us.

1312
01:06:35,460 --> 01:06:37,460
I think there's a 45 day

1313
01:06:37,460 --> 01:06:39,460
notice of petition to be filed

1314
01:06:39,460 --> 01:06:41,460
with Vermont Public Utilities.

1315
01:06:41,460 --> 01:06:44,480
Are you coming to June?

1316
01:06:44,480 --> 01:06:46,480
Do we object to it?

1317
01:06:46,480 --> 01:06:48,480
Did they do a visibility study?

1318
01:06:48,480 --> 01:06:50,480
Does it affect anyone?

1319
01:06:50,480 --> 01:06:52,480
Just when you're going up the mountain.

1320
01:06:52,480 --> 01:06:54,480
Not from here.

1321
01:06:54,480 --> 01:06:56,480
I don't understand why they don't

1322
01:06:56,480 --> 01:06:58,480
put them underground anyway.

1323
01:06:58,480 --> 01:07:00,480
Think about the trees and everything.

1324
01:07:00,480 --> 01:07:02,480
I understand it's more money.

1325
01:07:02,480 --> 01:07:04,480
Well, I thought you followed

1326
01:07:04,480 --> 01:07:06,480
somebody to put them underground.

1327
01:07:06,480 --> 01:07:08,480
Maintenance-wise, you know,

1328
01:07:08,480 --> 01:07:10,480
if you maintain it over those years.

1329
01:07:10,480 --> 01:07:12,480
Moving on.

1330
01:07:12,480 --> 01:07:14,480
Here's Green Mountain Power.

1331
01:07:14,480 --> 01:07:16,480
We're done with that.

1332
01:07:16,480 --> 01:07:18,480
BCA training.

1333
01:07:18,480 --> 01:07:20,480
June 17th.

1334
01:07:20,480 --> 01:07:22,480
Online webinar.

1335
01:07:22,480 --> 01:07:24,480
6 to 7.30.

1336
01:07:24,480 --> 01:07:26,480
That's for Selectmen,

1337
01:07:26,480 --> 01:07:29,480
Justice of the Peace,

1338
01:07:29,480 --> 01:07:32,880
BCA training.

1339
01:07:32,880 --> 01:07:35,010
6 to 7.30

1340
01:07:35,010 --> 01:07:37,010
is the online webinar.

1341
01:07:37,010 --> 01:07:43,139
It's probably free.

1342
01:07:43,139 --> 01:07:45,360
It's just good for Richard.

1343
01:07:45,360 --> 01:07:48,579
A question on us.

1344
01:07:48,579 --> 01:07:50,579
You see this Act,

1345
01:07:50,579 --> 01:07:53,090
we were talking about the Act 1.

1346
01:07:53,090 --> 01:08:16,210
A lot of accounts have sent letters.

1347
01:08:16,210 --> 01:08:20,550
Where I think a lot of people didn't

1348
01:08:20,550 --> 01:08:22,550
really read the fine print

1349
01:08:22,550 --> 01:08:24,550
and then they were surprised.

1350
01:08:24,550 --> 01:08:35,380
Yeah, that's what I was thinking too.

1351
01:08:35,380 --> 01:08:37,380
I'm sure they're going to come back to it at some point.

1352
01:08:37,380 --> 01:08:39,380
Is this in place in

1353
01:08:39,380 --> 01:08:41,380
250 or is it?

1354
01:08:41,380 --> 01:08:43,380
Easier.

1355
01:08:43,380 --> 01:08:45,380
Or more difficult depending on how you look at it.

1356
01:08:45,380 --> 01:08:47,380
Everything's still about 2,500 feet

1357
01:08:47,380 --> 01:08:49,640
from the end.

1358
01:08:49,640 --> 01:09:03,409
The listening sessions might be.

1359
01:09:03,409 --> 01:09:05,409
Has this been given to the Planning Commission?

1360
01:09:05,409 --> 01:09:07,409
He just gave it to me tonight.

1361
01:09:07,409 --> 01:09:09,409
He said earlier that

1362
01:09:09,409 --> 01:09:11,409
he was going to submit it to the Planning Commission.

1363
01:09:11,409 --> 01:09:15,430
This is our copy.

1364
01:09:15,430 --> 01:09:17,430
I made a copy and I don't know

1365
01:09:17,430 --> 01:09:25,439
if he wanted it.

1366
01:09:25,439 --> 01:09:28,979
You know, I would just suggest that

1367
01:09:28,979 --> 01:09:31,010
just like we've done in the past

1368
01:09:31,010 --> 01:09:34,550
and I told Dave this before.

1369
01:09:34,550 --> 01:10:12,390
Make a mistake.

1370
01:10:12,390 --> 01:10:20,949
Thank you.

1371
01:10:20,949 --> 01:10:22,949
It's going to be a learning curve for them too.

1372
01:10:22,949 --> 01:10:24,949
Just try to do the best we can.

1373
01:10:24,949 --> 01:10:30,149
Also, I'd just like to say

1374
01:10:30,149 --> 01:10:32,149
we were responding

1375
01:10:32,149 --> 01:10:35,680
to the conversation at last time

1376
01:10:35,680 --> 01:10:37,680
where it was like

1377
01:10:37,680 --> 01:10:39,680
let's come up with a comprehensive

1378
01:10:39,680 --> 01:10:41,680
format for

1379
01:10:41,680 --> 01:10:43,680
bringing new people in.

1380
01:10:43,680 --> 01:10:45,680
And that one component

1381
01:10:45,680 --> 01:10:47,680
of that was that the Board

1382
01:10:47,680 --> 01:10:49,909
can look at

1383
01:10:49,909 --> 01:10:51,909
the applications that we've

1384
01:10:51,909 --> 01:10:53,909
got before us and be able to

1385
01:10:53,909 --> 01:10:55,909
recommend to you guys.

1386
01:10:55,909 --> 01:10:57,909
Which is, and I know that Lisa

1387
01:10:57,909 --> 01:10:59,909
got in touch with you about

1388
01:10:59,909 --> 01:11:01,909
doing a last minute executive session

1389
01:11:01,909 --> 01:11:03,909
because it seemed inappropriate

1390
01:11:03,909 --> 01:11:05,909
to be talking about that

1391
01:11:05,909 --> 01:11:07,909
in the meeting with people there.

1392
01:11:07,909 --> 01:11:09,909
Just not to hurt people's feelings

1393
01:11:09,909 --> 01:11:11,909
or whatever.

1394
01:11:11,909 --> 01:11:14,229
I was

1395
01:11:14,229 --> 01:11:16,260
unaware if we did

1396
01:11:16,260 --> 01:11:18,260
some sort of a mistake.

1397
01:11:18,260 --> 01:11:20,520
But

1398
01:11:20,520 --> 01:11:22,520
it certainly was not done maliciously

1399
01:11:22,520 --> 01:11:24,520
we were trying to do it

1400
01:11:24,520 --> 01:11:26,520
for the good.

1401
01:11:26,520 --> 01:11:28,520
And then to be transparent

1402
01:11:28,520 --> 01:11:30,520
about what we'd come up with

1403
01:11:30,520 --> 01:11:32,520
and bring it to you.

1404
01:11:32,520 --> 01:11:34,520
We didn't have as many

1405
01:11:34,520 --> 01:11:36,520
candidates as we do now.

1406
01:11:36,520 --> 01:11:38,520
I'm perfectly

1407
01:11:38,520 --> 01:11:40,520
sorry and

1408
01:11:40,520 --> 01:11:42,520
willing to go by whatever

1409
01:11:42,520 --> 01:11:44,520
protocol you guys

1410
01:11:44,520 --> 01:11:48,659
make up.

1411
01:11:57,109 --> 01:11:59,109
Wrong job!

1412
01:11:59,109 --> 01:12:01,520
Shh!

1413
01:12:01,520 --> 01:12:03,520
Every other week.

1414
01:12:03,520 --> 01:12:05,520
And you can't take my money.

1415
01:12:05,520 --> 01:12:07,520
Quarterly!

1416
01:12:07,520 --> 01:12:11,640
I don't see

1417
01:12:11,640 --> 01:12:16,260
any of that if you give it to me.

1418
01:12:16,260 --> 01:12:22,100
Anything else under new business?

1419
01:12:22,100 --> 01:12:24,100
Can I have a motion to go into executive session

1420
01:12:24,100 --> 01:12:26,100
for personnel?

1421
01:12:26,100 --> 01:12:28,100
Are you sure you could do it?

1422
01:12:32,180 --> 01:12:34,180
We're talking about you!

1423
01:12:34,180 --> 01:12:36,789
Can I stay?

1424
01:12:36,789 --> 01:12:42,369
I don't even know what we're doing.

1425
01:12:42,369 --> 01:12:46,100
Thank you.

1426
01:12:46,100 --> 01:12:49,640
Thank you.

1427
01:12:49,640 --> 01:12:58,000
Thank you.

1428
01:13:03,539 --> 01:13:05,539
How's your lawn looking, Bill?

1429
01:13:05,539 --> 01:13:07,539
It's getting there.

1430
01:13:07,539 --> 01:13:09,539
I don't know

1431
01:13:09,539 --> 01:13:11,539
if Madden says about

1432
01:13:11,539 --> 01:13:13,539
those trees or not.

1433
01:13:13,539 --> 01:13:15,539
I haven't forgotten about it.

1434
01:13:15,539 --> 01:13:17,539
I'm waiting on some equipment to come.

1435
01:13:17,539 --> 01:13:19,539
It was supposed to come yesterday.

1436
01:13:19,539 --> 01:13:21,539
I'm hoping it's there by the time I get out of the meeting.

1437
01:13:21,539 --> 01:13:23,539
I know it's starting to find some

1438
01:13:23,539 --> 01:13:25,539
Yeah, I'm just trying to do the spring cleaning.

1439
01:13:25,539 --> 01:13:27,539
But I haven't forgotten about it.

1440
01:13:27,539 --> 01:13:29,760
Like I said,

1441
01:13:29,760 --> 01:13:32,850
I was waiting for some gear.

1442
01:13:32,850 --> 01:13:34,850
A new rope and stuff like that.

1443
01:13:34,850 --> 01:13:36,850
Trying to upgrade my stuff

1444
01:13:36,850 --> 01:13:38,850
before I start pulling on things.

1445
01:13:38,850 --> 01:13:40,850
But yeah, I'll make sure

1446
01:13:40,850 --> 01:13:42,850
you get taken care of.

1447
01:13:42,850 --> 01:13:44,850
You have a good night.

1448
01:13:44,850 --> 01:13:46,850
So what are you thinking for the lawn?

1449
01:13:46,850 --> 01:13:48,850
Maybe next week?

1450
01:13:48,850 --> 01:13:50,850
Depending on what the weather does.

1451
01:13:50,850 --> 01:13:52,850
Are you driving separately?

1452
01:13:52,850 --> 01:13:54,850
If you feel it needs to be done sooner.

1453
01:13:54,850 --> 01:13:57,520
How close?

1454
01:13:57,520 --> 01:13:59,520
Good night Bill.

1455
01:13:59,520 --> 01:14:04,399
Good night.
