It was a good time. Well, this is part of the plan. You have to do all the meetings and do all these things, but they charge you for all of them. 357 00:27:35,210 --> 00:28:03,059 The idea was to try to get people's input that don't generally... Now, does this have anything to do with the Village District? 358 00:28:03,059 --> 00:28:10,920 Not so much other than the fact that that's basically where we kind of live. So the Village District is set then? 359 00:28:10,920 --> 00:28:31,299 Yeah, they're not unless the Board. Historically... 360 00:28:31,299 --> 00:29:00,109 What's the whole part of updating the town? When that's updated, then you'll work on the zoning bylaws or it's kind of... 361 00:29:00,109 --> 00:29:09,109 We're kind of working on them simultaneously. Monday's meeting is going to have a woman coming down talking about river corridors and wetlands, I believe. 362 00:29:09,109 --> 00:29:20,210 River mapping, which is going to fire everyone up just as much as 181. It's just all about conservation and natural resources and whether we care about these things or not. 363 00:29:20,210 --> 00:29:21,210 Yeah. 364 00:29:21,210 --> 00:29:30,210 Why we're sitting here at this day and age still arguing about whether we care about water is a little ridiculous to me, but here we are. 365 00:29:30,210 --> 00:29:43,210 So it's the number one life essential force that we have on the planet. Why we want to drain it away or fill it in and constantly remove it is beyond my comprehension, but that's what we do. 366 00:29:43,210 --> 00:29:50,849 So those conversations are all going to kick in as well. Not sure exactly what she's bringing to the table on Monday, 367 00:29:50,849 --> 00:29:51,849 but she will. 368 00:29:51,849 --> 00:30:00,140 She will be at the meeting. She's like the coordinator. I believe she's the coordinator for like flood mapping and stuff like that. 369 00:30:00,140 --> 00:30:04,140 So this will be something in your bylaws, maybe. 370 00:30:04,140 --> 00:30:14,140 Well, it's part of the bylaws. We have, which people have tended to ignore over the years, there is a whole chapter, a whole component for flood resilience that is attached to the bylaws. 371 00:30:14,140 --> 00:30:15,140 Yup. 372 00:30:15,140 --> 00:30:21,140 You know, since those have been written, we've had several houses built within the flood zone and in wetlands. 373 00:30:21,140 --> 00:30:27,140 In the river corridor. But it all goes directly to whether people in town can get homeowners insurance or not. 374 00:30:27,140 --> 00:30:30,140 So it's all directly tied in. Flood insurance, that is. 375 00:30:30,140 --> 00:30:31,140 Yup. 376 00:30:31,140 --> 00:30:37,140 Not homeowners insurance. So it's important. I mean, we already have 20-something houses within the flood plain at this point in town. 377 00:30:37,140 --> 00:30:43,140 Or even if you want to remortgage your house or a home equity loan, you need flood insurance. 378 00:30:43,140 --> 00:30:47,140 Sure. So it matters. 379 00:30:47,140 --> 00:30:50,740 I don't know what it costs, but I do know that. 380 00:30:50,740 --> 00:30:54,740 Well, see, water's important. I mean, all you've got to do is look out west and see how dry it's getting. 381 00:30:54,740 --> 00:30:57,740 And just look at our streams right now. They're lower than they should be. 382 00:30:57,740 --> 00:30:58,740 Yes. 383 00:30:58,740 --> 00:31:04,740 So the plant is drying out. We're draining water away. We're messing with our hydraulic systems constantly. 384 00:31:04,740 --> 00:31:09,740 And we keep on doing it. And the west is paying a pretty stiff price right now. 385 00:31:09,740 --> 00:31:14,160 They're talking about desalinization at billions of dollars. 386 00:31:14,160 --> 00:31:20,349 Anything else under new business? 387 00:31:20,349 --> 00:31:26,380 June 6th at the Alliance Park. 388 00:31:26,380 --> 00:31:39,769 Yeah. 389 00:31:39,769 --> 00:32:11,039 I hear so. 390 00:32:11,039 --> 00:32:35,619 Yeah. 391 00:32:35,619 --> 00:32:38,359 You're slowing us down. 392 00:32:38,359 --> 00:32:47,619 That's okay. 393 00:32:47,619 --> 00:32:51,819 Do you have my number at all? 394 00:32:51,819 --> 00:32:54,819 It was heavy putting in the emergency management plan. 395 00:32:54,819 --> 00:32:58,950 I do a lot of reading and interesting stuff. 396 00:32:58,950 --> 00:33:03,950 I'm going to keep this for all the numbers. I'll prank call people at night time.
