1
00:00:01,04 --> 00:00:05,43
The next item on the agenda is
for social comments this is

2
00:00:05,44 --> 00:00:10,86
a opportunity for citizens to speak to
issues that are not addressed in the agenda

3
00:00:11,17 --> 00:00:17,95
anyone want to speak. No one will
move on to three four five and

4
00:00:17,96 --> 00:00:19,41
six we have a for

5
00:00:19,42 --> 00:00:22,84
a been applications anybody want to
discuss those separately or is there any

6
00:00:22,85 --> 00:00:29,61
question OK. By good with.
Let's talk about number six.

7
00:00:36,10 --> 00:00:39,20
Well. They're going to come on up we can.

8
00:00:44,86 --> 00:00:51,79
Have the event organizers will.
Know we've got to organize are

9
00:00:51,80 --> 00:00:57,60
here. Down there and I'm going
to start to finish it right.

10
00:01:01,76 --> 00:01:05,70
There given a number of
you. Yes this is a five K.

11
00:01:05,71 --> 00:01:09,13
Run that's being held on
Memorial Day it's out about

12
00:01:09,14 --> 00:01:13,06
a mom I think we have the streets bust it
starts at eight and look at do you want

13
00:01:13,07 --> 00:01:18,54
sports and ends at the one sports. Center
of the problem from eight to ten and all

14
00:01:18,55 --> 00:01:24,59
these kind of rolling street closures.
Or if it is the first time.

15
00:01:25,74 --> 00:01:29,33
And I believe I am the organization that
benefits is not alone you might want to

16
00:01:29,34 --> 00:01:34,09
talk a little bit about the losers the
races in honor of Josh spires who is

17
00:01:34,10 --> 00:01:39,24
a captain in the Army and he died in the
everything for the benefits not alone

18
00:01:39,25 --> 00:01:45,26
which is an organization that helps families
and loved ones who have paddled lost.

19
00:01:46,28 --> 00:01:51,63
In the war and then also it helps them
readjust back into fighting the soldiers

20
00:01:51,69 --> 00:01:57,52
that were at war and how is it. That we're
going to zation has different types of

21
00:01:57,53 --> 00:02:02,71
programs that are in place that can. With
their mental adjustment back into society

22
00:02:02,72 --> 00:02:04,85
with any kind of post C.S.

23
00:02:05,47 --> 00:02:08,99
Post-traumatic stress disorder
that they're having and also have

24
00:02:09,00 --> 00:02:13,57
a network of people that they can talk about
what they experienced or interact it's

25
00:02:13,58 --> 00:02:19,50
just for a local. That's
it is. Not alone it's

26
00:02:19,51 --> 00:02:24,44
a local organization their offices in
Nashville downtown Nashville Tenn do you want

27
00:02:24,45 --> 00:02:31,07
to partner with them to be the presenting
sponsor so they. Offered to have the race

28
00:02:31,08 --> 00:02:37,88
after location once and then just
buyer's he's from Tennessee.

29
00:02:38,90 --> 00:02:39,33
So he's

30
00:02:39,34 --> 00:02:46,91
a local. So. The question. Probably

31
00:02:46,91 --> 00:02:52,22
. This is your relation with tax exempt
organizations you've got to appeal to know

32
00:02:52,22 --> 00:02:58,45
. What their future is you're I think
yes well I want to see three literary

33
00:02:59,44 --> 00:03:00,75
defenders organization is

34
00:03:00,76 --> 00:03:06,83
a for profit that all the parties are going
to novel and that's. OK they're playing

35
00:03:06,84 --> 00:03:13,41
exists. To all the merchants
here blow out. We approve this

36
00:03:13,97 --> 00:03:19,81
you will go out after you. I think
the letter should go out before.

37
00:03:20,91 --> 00:03:27,32
That's my comment I think you should be
free to say this if you are in the in the

38
00:03:27,33 --> 00:03:32,84
in the they were they got something going
so it was thirty one virgins here but

39
00:03:32,93 --> 00:03:38,14
those I'm sorry the merchants are listed
on that comment for actually the merchants

40
00:03:38,47 --> 00:03:43,50
of course when it went around the mall but
we recently changed the course because I

41
00:03:43,54 --> 00:03:48,13
talked to the general manager at the mall
and they're open on Memorial Day and so

42
00:03:48,14 --> 00:03:52,95
work changing the course to be slightly
different from what the merchants were down

43
00:03:52,96 --> 00:03:55,68
there. I can provide you with an app today

44
00:03:55,69 --> 00:03:59,61
a merchant lists and send the good
neighbor letter out ahead of time.

45
00:04:02,80 --> 00:04:09,55
This is not for the two weeks we
could. Send letters in the meantime to

46
00:04:09,59 --> 00:04:16,25
the to the list that turns out the
life we know. That would be surprised

47
00:04:16,30 --> 00:04:20,20
somebody who want open letter. To. Send

48
00:04:20,21 --> 00:04:27,03
a letter out the list and buy more
just zero point four million more tips

49
00:04:27,04 --> 00:04:32,22
that's all the new list a lot of bills. As

50
00:04:32,23 --> 00:04:38,18
a general practice just give us some feedback
if you want to or down the line which

51
00:04:38,19 --> 00:04:39,44
you'd like us to send them

52
00:04:39,48 --> 00:04:45,27
a letter in the intervening time between
this work session in the final I would if

53
00:04:45,28 --> 00:04:49,18
you could have it two weeks put it that way
at least we'd get your initial input if

54
00:04:49,19 --> 00:04:49,38
there's

55
00:04:49,39 --> 00:04:54,83
a change and that letter can reflect the
change and that goes really after tonight

56
00:04:55,39 --> 00:04:59,76
and is out there for. Two
weeks before you would.

57
00:05:03,45 --> 00:05:06,23
Move you know Number
seven consideration or

58
00:05:06,24 --> 00:05:09,46
a. Resolution two thousand
and twelve seventeen

59
00:05:09,47 --> 00:05:13,87
a resolution opposing legislation that
limits the city's authority over the world

60
00:05:13,88 --> 00:05:19,61
will. You just comment
you have been requested.

61
00:05:20,97 --> 00:05:25,38
By the board to provide this and I think
we've provided you with the governmental

62
00:05:25,39 --> 00:05:27,09
information that provides

63
00:05:27,10 --> 00:05:31,71
a little summary about the bills that we
had invested in this list was created at

64
00:05:31,72 --> 00:05:36,42
the request of our budget slate of
delegation of about two weeks ago some folks

65
00:05:36,43 --> 00:05:41,37
from Brentwood city Franklin and when some
county all sat down with our legislators

66
00:05:41,38 --> 00:05:45,94
delegation to share some concerns there
are some some bills going through that

67
00:05:45,98 --> 00:05:51,01
really do have some impact and attend to
and in general seem to limit at level

68
00:05:51,02 --> 00:05:56,00
forty and it's inclusive of everything
from land use and planning efforts to

69
00:05:56,82 --> 00:06:01,58
residential sprinkler systems to the sale
of fireworks. In your community there's

70
00:06:01,59 --> 00:06:02,20
a there's

71
00:06:02,21 --> 00:06:06,89
a whole list of different different things
that all kind of impact what we're able

72
00:06:06,90 --> 00:06:11,75
to do and either take tools out of our
toolkit in terms of things we might want to

73
00:06:11,76 --> 00:06:15,15
consider and use in our
I work every day as

74
00:06:15,16 --> 00:06:19,76
a local government were
specifically. To make

75
00:06:19,77 --> 00:06:23,22
a policy. Statement or provide essentially

76
00:06:23,23 --> 00:06:27,65
a statewide policy whether that's the exact
intent or not it has that impact at the

77
00:06:27,66 --> 00:06:33,40
end of the day and so we felt it was
important to speak up about those items and

78
00:06:33,83 --> 00:06:39,81
emphasize the importance of local autonomy
local decision making because ours is

79
00:06:39,82 --> 00:06:41,05
a diverse state there's

80
00:06:41,06 --> 00:06:45,76
a lot of different communities and what's
right for Franklin may not be right for

81
00:06:45,77 --> 00:06:52,56
Fairview or. Take your pick
whatever city you know so that that

82
00:06:52,57 --> 00:06:58,46
diversity of choice that you give local
governments to tailor policies and work in

83
00:06:58,47 --> 00:07:03,03
our community to our communities needs is
important and so that's where this came

84
00:07:03,04 --> 00:07:06,45
from. Going to ask if we might
want to consider putting

85
00:07:06,46 --> 00:07:13,12
a more broad. Resolution before the
board to get that emphasis of the

86
00:07:13,37 --> 00:07:17,75
words intent behind it and so that's
what we attempted to draft and we did in

87
00:07:17,81 --> 00:07:20,70
included with that more
general resolution a look

88
00:07:20,93 --> 00:07:26,05
a working list of the items that are of
concern at this point obviously legislation

89
00:07:26,06 --> 00:07:26,17
is

90
00:07:26,18 --> 00:07:31,74
a fluid process we don't know when or where
any one of these may be going some of them

91
00:07:31,75 --> 00:07:34,91
do get amended over time
to to maybe make them

92
00:07:34,92 --> 00:07:40,85
a little more. Palatable to local government
but this concern remains and that's

93
00:07:40,86 --> 00:07:46,09
really our intent not so much to weigh in
on the specific. Content of some of these

94
00:07:46,10 --> 00:07:50,63
bills but the general theme of local
authority in protecting our ability to make

95
00:07:50,64 --> 00:07:57,43
decisions for ourselves. One more in
you know. You did mention that we

96
00:07:57,44 --> 00:08:01,38
had. Brentwood. In the
county represented with

97
00:08:01,39 --> 00:08:05,42
a meeting where we discussed this with
our legislators but that was it to

98
00:08:05,43 --> 00:08:11,43
executives committee meeting of the mayors
caucus to every mayor that was there is

99
00:08:11,44 --> 00:08:16,48
pretty nervous and anxious about these
things and how to fix their local community

100
00:08:16,49 --> 00:08:23,14
in fact. They used our
resolution to pass out to the

101
00:08:23,15 --> 00:08:29,08
entire forty member group to consider
approval and we're going to try to get

102
00:08:29,23 --> 00:08:35,70
they're going to try to get that out by
tomorrow. So I think that tells you how on

103
00:08:35,71 --> 00:08:41,40
are sick of the Yes sir you know that this
is one of these in all these areas the

104
00:08:41,41 --> 00:08:47,20
decision is better made at the local
community. The poor for these things.

105
00:08:48,33 --> 00:08:48,81
There's

106
00:08:48,82 --> 00:08:55,63
a. Sense of accountability
at our level you

107
00:08:55,64 --> 00:09:02,33
know if we do something that contrary to
what the citizens want in this area they

108
00:09:02,34 --> 00:09:07,90
have recourse to pretty want to replace
us you know what then that is the next

109
00:09:08,44 --> 00:09:14,38
election now when you when you do this at
the state level it's much harder to have

110
00:09:14,39 --> 00:09:18,72
any recourse about the direction
these go through so we spend

111
00:09:18,73 --> 00:09:22,15
a great deal of time on a
zone I mean we we require

112
00:09:22,16 --> 00:09:28,35
a neighborhood meetings we have public
hearings before we vote on these things and

113
00:09:28,92 --> 00:09:34,25
Franklin is part of the way we are in the
community that we are is because of the

114
00:09:34,26 --> 00:09:38,11
hottest standards that we have
and I just don't think it's

115
00:09:38,12 --> 00:09:43,27
a good idea for the you know the state to
dictate what we're going to be able to do

116
00:09:43,27 --> 00:09:49,23
. With within the normal zoning and
those those types of ordinances.

117
00:09:50,58 --> 00:09:56,43
Well remark we bring you that with no legs
like that what was the response to your

118
00:09:56,44 --> 00:10:03,39
feelings. Well we could

119
00:10:03,40 --> 00:10:10,30
replace. Understood where we were
coming from I don't think we

120
00:10:10,31 --> 00:10:10,73
lift with

121
00:10:10,74 --> 00:10:17,72
a promise from any of them but I
think you got the message. Person

122
00:10:17,73 --> 00:10:23,69
let us know there are thousands. Every.
Session and because of that they didn't

123
00:10:23,70 --> 00:10:29,04
know exactly which bill that's how they
asked this one because they didn't know

124
00:10:29,08 --> 00:10:33,91
every single bill they were talking about
the statement was made especially as

125
00:10:33,92 --> 00:10:39,87
a relates to planning zoning land use
issues that the complaints in issues that

126
00:10:39,88 --> 00:10:45,06
have kind of generated this. Point and
County Franklin Brentwood they don't at all

127
00:10:45,10 --> 00:10:50,59
in fact they said our community is one
that is held up as one that does it right

128
00:10:50,63 --> 00:10:56,52
generally but that didn't change the fact
that these kind of broad legislative

129
00:10:56,53 --> 00:11:00,39
actions could inhibit our ability to
continue to do it right and protect

130
00:11:00,40 --> 00:11:06,13
investments that our citizens and local
businesses make so I think there's an

131
00:11:06,14 --> 00:11:11,23
understanding of that there are some
specific concerns that have happened various

132
00:11:11,24 --> 00:11:13,98
places in the States or you know
I would put in the category of

133
00:11:13,99 --> 00:11:19,46
a local story that happened some property
owner somewhere that has captured the

134
00:11:19,47 --> 00:11:23,06
attention of some folks in the legislature
and they're trying to figure out

135
00:11:23,07 --> 00:11:27,50
a way to respond and help with that situation
and I guess my response would be well

136
00:11:28,12 --> 00:11:33,42
that local authorities accountable for the
appropriate use of those powers and you

137
00:11:33,43 --> 00:11:37,33
know those abilities don't. Present

138
00:11:37,34 --> 00:11:42,67
a one size fits all solution to that
problem but I think that's kind of where

139
00:11:42,68 --> 00:11:46,82
that's coming from but they specifically
said you know these issues don't come from

140
00:11:47,31 --> 00:11:52,09
our community specifically the tend to be
coming from other places but this is how

141
00:11:52,10 --> 00:11:58,19
the at least some legislators are
reacting to it putting ideas for. Or

142
00:11:59,17 --> 00:12:04,76
over here. Well much like. Much like.

143
00:12:07,20 --> 00:12:12,77
I've one problem is some of these things
I believe should the only road to the

144
00:12:12,78 --> 00:12:19,41
local decision making zoning land use
regulations that kind of thing I think those

145
00:12:19,42 --> 00:12:24,63
are. I would agree to those are things
that the group Mr Skinner those are things

146
00:12:24,64 --> 00:12:30,43
that the local authorities need to be. Able
to govern as they see fit at the local

147
00:12:30,44 --> 00:12:34,44
level. However there are other
things where preemption is

148
00:12:34,45 --> 00:12:39,12
a state preemption is appropriate when I
say preemption what I mean is but for the

149
00:12:39,13 --> 00:12:45,24
state to make the law of the land uniform
by removing authority from local.

150
00:12:46,52 --> 00:12:53,02
Governments because there are certain things
about which we need one law across the

151
00:12:53,03 --> 00:12:59,54
state. And one in particular that I would
say that one subject that I would say

152
00:12:59,68 --> 00:13:06,07
falls in that category is something like
ten gun permits and carry on I mean.

153
00:13:07,48 --> 00:13:07,70
It's

154
00:13:07,71 --> 00:13:12,56
a mess when you start learning new each and
every county and municipal How do you.

155
00:13:13,80 --> 00:13:20,19
Start making exceptions to what is generally
Otherwise the law. People don't want

156
00:13:20,20 --> 00:13:26,94
to be Tom. They don't want to commit crimes
unknowingly because they left one party

157
00:13:26,95 --> 00:13:32,53
and went to another day so there are there
are areas within which subject matter is

158
00:13:32,54 --> 00:13:38,90
within which I think the state preemption
is appropriate however. Local zoning

159
00:13:39,45 --> 00:13:43,16
is not one of them so it's disappointing
to see Representative tacet

160
00:13:43,17 --> 00:13:50,04
a sponsor and. See at least one.
Bill but I'm not I feel sure we

161
00:13:50,05 --> 00:13:55,97
I would oppose it which is the House bill
thirteen forty five which would require

162
00:13:55,98 --> 00:13:59,58
permission from every property owner
before local government can resign

163
00:13:59,59 --> 00:14:05,58
a piece of pie. That that's chaos that's.

164
00:14:08,73 --> 00:14:13,50
That's net net. That doesn't work.

165
00:14:15,81 --> 00:14:21,55
However I think we make the same mistake
that the state is making if we try to lump

166
00:14:22,21 --> 00:14:27,21
twenty different bills in the one exhibit
and say we oppose these I for one don't

167
00:14:27,22 --> 00:14:32,73
oppose all these all these these pieces
of legislation some of them I pose

168
00:14:32,74 --> 00:14:36,12
adamantly as a citizen first not just as

169
00:14:36,13 --> 00:14:40,52
a local elected official but others of
these I think you know there may be not

170
00:14:40,53 --> 00:14:45,66
knowing any more never know about except
for the you know fifty word caption on

171
00:14:45,67 --> 00:14:50,10
them some of them I don't I don't apologise
so much like the state is making

172
00:14:50,11 --> 00:14:55,36
a mistake by trying to legislate with
a broad brush I think for us to pass

173
00:14:55,37 --> 00:15:00,25
a resolution. You know complaining about
twenty pieces of legislation saying we

174
00:15:00,26 --> 00:15:04,47
don't like any other. Or we just
like all of them I think is

175
00:15:04,48 --> 00:15:08,95
a mistake and I mean unless we're prepared
to start picking and choosing which ones

176
00:15:08,96 --> 00:15:11,85
we want on the list. I can't support

177
00:15:11,86 --> 00:15:15,38
a resolution that throws them all on the
list and you support it without number

178
00:15:15,39 --> 00:15:20,70
three. Or that issue number three didn't
we it was it is not so much that kind of

179
00:15:20,71 --> 00:15:25,12
a parking lot that the problem the problem
that it does provide for an opt out if

180
00:15:25,13 --> 00:15:30,72
the community decides to opt out you are
still only liable if that employee is

181
00:15:30,73 --> 00:15:31,72
harmed as

182
00:15:31,73 --> 00:15:35,19
a victim of some sort of crime and you
didn't allow them to have their gun in their

183
00:15:35,20 --> 00:15:38,29
car even if they were a victim on
the front of the first floor of

184
00:15:38,30 --> 00:15:42,08
a three story to rise and their cars at
the third floor you're still several

185
00:15:42,09 --> 00:15:46,77
allowable for their care that there are
problems with that bill it's not so much

186
00:15:46,78 --> 00:15:49,03
the gun no partner it's a draft in such

187
00:15:49,04 --> 00:15:52,37
a way that we can't really do anything
problem is the problem is all these no

188
00:15:52,93 --> 00:15:54,54
statutes that purport to convey

189
00:15:54,55 --> 00:15:59,98
a right and then allow people to opt out
of it. So that the problem is the problem

190
00:15:59,98 --> 00:16:06,43
. Is twofold one. One of those problems
is that you you shouldn't be creating

191
00:16:06,74 --> 00:16:13,04
legislation that says you can't you can't
prohibit this but then say same time well

192
00:16:13,05 --> 00:16:16,11
you can but maybe stop with
the bill with you I mean

193
00:16:16,12 --> 00:16:21,12
a financial responsibility here so I
mean I don't particularly like that

194
00:16:21,13 --> 00:16:22,38
legislation but as

195
00:16:22,39 --> 00:16:28,09
a general matter I think the subject
matter of of handgun permits should be.

196
00:16:29,25 --> 00:16:30,89
A state wide regulation

197
00:16:31,05 --> 00:16:36,64
a state wide uniform law as I am going to
carry permit holder and I don't I don't

198
00:16:36,65 --> 00:16:42,52
want to have to wonder when I go from one
county to the next whether I may somehow

199
00:16:42,53 --> 00:16:49,28
be unknowingly violating that county's
opt out law that that's why I oppose the

200
00:16:50,04 --> 00:16:53,38
way we treated parks here when we
did it and I think the state made

201
00:16:53,39 --> 00:16:58,74
a mistake there by granting the local
authorities the power to opt out and you know

202
00:16:58,75 --> 00:16:59,52
I mean it became

203
00:16:59,53 --> 00:17:03,48
a mess here and there are now there are
there are places you know you can go from

204
00:17:03,49 --> 00:17:07,67
one county to the next and even within one
county there are parts in which you can

205
00:17:07,68 --> 00:17:13,07
carry in something which you can't and I
just mean the state did no one any favors

206
00:17:13,08 --> 00:17:15,05
by by creating

207
00:17:15,06 --> 00:17:18,65
a law and then allowing opting out if
they're going to preempt something nations

208
00:17:18,66 --> 00:17:20,46
preempt. And that's

209
00:17:20,47 --> 00:17:24,23
a shower after question about what Dan
just said not that didn't we pull out some

210
00:17:24,24 --> 00:17:29,31
of those and not those are.
All that we were asked for

211
00:17:29,32 --> 00:17:32,18
a list that we rise ago we provided

212
00:17:32,19 --> 00:17:36,15
a list that was one of them had been
tricky things about how to write this.

213
00:17:37,18 --> 00:17:42,10
Generally or whether they could provide
the list that we had been asked by our

214
00:17:42,11 --> 00:17:46,84
joint legislators what good items concern
you at some level and so we tried to

215
00:17:47,07 --> 00:17:53,34
provide that less so this listening to it.
Is that those that believe it believe

216
00:17:53,35 --> 00:17:57,73
are true and have actually made up their
best entirely out of this is thoughtful

217
00:17:58,21 --> 00:17:58,82
and this is

218
00:17:58,83 --> 00:18:05,55
a stash. Bills that are so many problems
but we have these are the rights that if

219
00:18:05,56 --> 00:18:10,80
they pass will be detrimental and the ones
we listed and said you know well I've

220
00:18:10,81 --> 00:18:14,38
talked with the ones with some
concert production but there's

221
00:18:14,39 --> 00:18:20,48
a right wing in the ark now and I would
like to point out the missionaries half to

222
00:18:21,31 --> 00:18:25,40
submit to the ethics commission like you
do with your complex of interest that's

223
00:18:25,41 --> 00:18:28,01
a new law that they're looking
at Happening now but that may be

224
00:18:28,02 --> 00:18:31,37
a good idea to let the Planning Commission
require the Planning Commission to

225
00:18:31,38 --> 00:18:36,58
submit an ethics report we don't know what
that puts these most of these things and

226
00:18:36,65 --> 00:18:42,11
if they pass we very detrimental to how
we do business and to follow degree.

227
00:18:43,64 --> 00:18:49,93
As has been stated in general in many of
these bills and by planning and zoning

228
00:18:50,36 --> 00:18:55,30
and we have been given an earlier list
that I notice not all of those around here

229
00:18:55,75 --> 00:19:02,52
but. They're up there cried in there
and brought here. To that is Dr

230
00:19:03,52 --> 00:19:10,41
plainly and and and in fact Dr kept in
touch with that maybe less and less

231
00:19:10,42 --> 00:19:16,25
than forty percent of the counties would
have zones and so to have it's Birlasoft

232
00:19:16,26 --> 00:19:23,03
sleigh ride the implication could never
There are so many are there so few counties

233
00:19:23,04 --> 00:19:27,34
that actually have so many that it would
really it would really hurt us and it

234
00:19:27,35 --> 00:19:33,24
really would really have an effect on the
others actually happening. Chamber of

235
00:19:33,25 --> 00:19:38,32
Commerce or early morning roundtable I did
say something because I never get the

236
00:19:38,33 --> 00:19:42,77
information on the player that not all of
those people that play it and I do admit

237
00:19:42,78 --> 00:19:49,17
to that to legislate or accept that and I
also noticed something today didn't care

238
00:19:49,18 --> 00:19:51,36
there were nine hundred from the T.M.A.O.

239
00:19:51,61 --> 00:19:56,42
That some of those things will bring better
soon might be right now so I think it's

240
00:19:56,43 --> 00:20:01,39
very important that as I say I
can't stand. I know but everyone.

241
00:20:04,56 --> 00:20:09,49
Most of the most
conservative the. Old Bird.

242
00:20:13,10 --> 00:20:18,35
I think Dan makes some very valid points
but at the same time I think we need to

243
00:20:18,36 --> 00:20:18,54
send

244
00:20:18,55 --> 00:20:23,70
a message to them that. I'm going to make
an amendment tonight and I want to read

245
00:20:23,71 --> 00:20:26,07
it to you so you could think
about it but you've got

246
00:20:26,31 --> 00:20:31,83
a seat here says The Whereas on
this resolution One two three four.

247
00:20:33,11 --> 00:20:38,08
Whereas I just think we need to be able
get more strong about that and it says

248
00:20:38,09 --> 00:20:41,34
where is the city believes that many
of the bills listed below will have

249
00:20:41,35 --> 00:20:46,01
a detrimental effect on the city I want to
say where is the sea believes that many

250
00:20:46,02 --> 00:20:50,94
of the bills listed below are bag undefined
and broad reaching and will have

251
00:20:50,95 --> 00:20:55,15
a detrimental effect on the city because
they need to know why we're saying this to

252
00:20:55,19 --> 00:20:58,80
their vego and find the broad reaching and
if I'm not mistaken these are capture

253
00:20:58,81 --> 00:21:03,83
bills too they're capturing and that's
of things they're doing these are not as

254
00:21:03,84 --> 00:21:08,44
written these are going to be
rewritten so but I do get them

255
00:21:08,45 --> 00:21:14,93
a good maybe myself. Some of defining
redefined make time for it's hard to put up

256
00:21:14,94 --> 00:21:18,86
but I've been going through this entire
packet with all these bills in here and

257
00:21:19,13 --> 00:21:22,94
there are some crazy things in here that
would take where authorities and the other

258
00:21:22,95 --> 00:21:25,55
thing think they're addressing here
is that Jenna twenty one which I know

259
00:21:25,56 --> 00:21:29,40
a lot of people talk about this really this
resolution that we're doing tonight is

260
00:21:29,41 --> 00:21:34,21
not addressing that on the last one I think
there's two or three of them in there

261
00:21:34,76 --> 00:21:41,41
actually one for sure about twenty one but
I think it's three four or seven. House

262
00:21:41,42 --> 00:21:47,36
Bill. And. We need we need to get

263
00:21:47,37 --> 00:21:50,89
a little bit more educated on this because
some things we're getting into the city

264
00:21:51,81 --> 00:21:55,08
for doing some great things
to bring down our cost

265
00:21:55,58 --> 00:22:00,48
a few more responsible for our tax dollars
do these things stand dealing with bank

266
00:22:00,49 --> 00:22:05,51
programs all these great things but we
share some commonalities of words that are

267
00:22:05,64 --> 00:22:07,23
found in just twenty one which is

268
00:22:07,24 --> 00:22:13,24
a human agenda and. And I want to get into
that because I don't think we should at

269
00:22:13,25 --> 00:22:15,86
this point but it is a U.N.

270
00:22:16,05 --> 00:22:22,21
Agenda now thirty that is moving covering
it over the federal level trickling down

271
00:22:22,22 --> 00:22:26,77
to the state levels where we have states
right now having issues with it and then

272
00:22:26,95 --> 00:22:31,33
have it in the county in the city and I
think the state is correct and right to

273
00:22:31,34 --> 00:22:35,36
address that I think they should address
it but the way they're addressing in the

274
00:22:35,37 --> 00:22:40,26
here is just really brought really bad
is totally undefined how can you support

275
00:22:40,27 --> 00:22:45,09
that I couldn't support that the way they
did they they don't even define it so I

276
00:22:45,10 --> 00:22:48,43
was going to put something in there about
that but it really doesn't address that

277
00:22:48,87 --> 00:22:51,20
but I do think we ought to
talk about being vegan to find

278
00:22:51,21 --> 00:22:56,14
a broad reaching. But I truly agree and I
think there are some things in here that

279
00:22:56,56 --> 00:23:01,28
and I don't think there's anything that
we call I mean. The gun thing is when he

280
00:23:01,29 --> 00:23:08,27
did this and she never was that it is
odd out Section twenty one twenty one

281
00:23:08,69 --> 00:23:14,41
Yeah OK it's really that's why abilities
I mean it's very hard it's difficult I

282
00:23:14,42 --> 00:23:21,24
want to get it for the person OK I
can support why are we here. But.

283
00:23:22,39 --> 00:23:26,96
Why because the students.
Are I mean I get why as

284
00:23:26,97 --> 00:23:33,54
a city. Because every other one on
this list more or less goes to proper

285
00:23:33,59 --> 00:23:39,20
regulation or you know NEWSROOM you know.
I'm in control you know regulation the

286
00:23:39,21 --> 00:23:45,27
first you know the sign you in the
grandfathering non-permitted you fear the.

287
00:23:47,83 --> 00:23:54,71
Rezoning not going to. Work Why
or why are local governments why

288
00:23:54,72 --> 00:23:58,78
is this local government
taking a position on

289
00:23:58,79 --> 00:24:05,77
a piece of legislation that.
As I read it. Doesn't

290
00:24:06,68 --> 00:24:13,67
doesn't change what our authority is. In
the regulation of handgun carry permits it

291
00:24:13,68 --> 00:24:19,61
merely allows people to
carry. A firearm to store

292
00:24:19,62 --> 00:24:26,39
a firearm in their car while at work but
it allows an employee to opt out all but

293
00:24:26,45 --> 00:24:31,00
if they off now then they could be held
liable if that employee is a victim of

294
00:24:31,01 --> 00:24:36,57
a crime on the grounds that touch upon
workers that confine or circumscribe the

295
00:24:36,58 --> 00:24:41,83
city's interest in regulating anything but
apartment now as I understand it right

296
00:24:41,84 --> 00:24:46,67
now you can't have guns in our park to run
that would do as it would change it to

297
00:24:46,68 --> 00:24:52,00
where you guys have to opt in or opt out
if you choose to opt out and maintain the

298
00:24:52,01 --> 00:24:56,60
status quo which means time running not
just from your point of an employer right.

299
00:24:57,67 --> 00:25:03,54
Right. And you don't know how we now
know it would it would change how you do

300
00:25:03,55 --> 00:25:06,79
things we would have to do
something about it that's not on

301
00:25:06,80 --> 00:25:12,05
a lot of people we are good Roger
he said it's just that it is

302
00:25:12,06 --> 00:25:17,53
a public facility so he answers. I'm not
sure I agree with every reading of the

303
00:25:17,54 --> 00:25:22,22
statute as it exists but OK.
Right I read the first.

304
00:25:26,69 --> 00:25:31,87
Thing to put in so I'm just telling it.
As it's pretty we're trying to identify

305
00:25:31,88 --> 00:25:33,15
things that that might have

306
00:25:33,16 --> 00:25:37,15
a real negative impact on us there
are certain common themes I agree

307
00:25:37,16 --> 00:25:42,91
a lot of land use and zoning and
planning related theory says that's the

308
00:25:42,92 --> 00:25:48,44
predominance of the others residential
sprinkler being once again we haven't made

309
00:25:48,45 --> 00:25:51,84
a decision on that locally
but it sure would be great

310
00:25:51,85 --> 00:25:57,87
a good bit have options and take that
option away to me is what I reject the most

311
00:25:57,91 --> 00:26:02,95
so that's what we're trying to capture
is things that put local governments and

312
00:26:02,96 --> 00:26:06,51
very challenging positions to make decisions
that they think are appropriate for

313
00:26:06,52 --> 00:26:12,98
their community. So I don't know how you
want to handle. Part of this I think the

314
00:26:12,99 --> 00:26:17,76
front end and all remembers offer good
potential men and we might hear later

315
00:26:17,77 --> 00:26:21,87
tonight but I think the front of the desk
captures the principles we're trying to

316
00:26:21,88 --> 00:26:27,41
get at it's just what the list of bills
exactly fit that is what's challenging

317
00:26:27,42 --> 00:26:33,15
mayor of them and. To me that the better
way to address this by what first of all

318
00:26:33,56 --> 00:26:37,83
so presumptuous to think that the city of
Franklin resolution is going to change

319
00:26:37,84 --> 00:26:42,69
what people who sponsor these bills think
anyway OK and I'm cynical enough think of

320
00:26:42,100 --> 00:26:46,92
some of these people sponsor these so they
claim sponsorship whether they are pets

321
00:26:46,93 --> 00:26:50,45
or not they don't get OK from. The meat

322
00:26:50,46 --> 00:26:54,07
a better way to address this is rather
than call out these bills by numbers

323
00:26:54,72 --> 00:27:01,63
remember this bill. And so the omission
could be you know held read back to us oh

324
00:27:01,64 --> 00:27:06,51
you didn't tell me you didn't like that
one OK And so one day I think maybe the

325
00:27:06,52 --> 00:27:11,82
better thing to do is to tell them you
know resolution form we have ject escape.

326
00:27:12,85 --> 00:27:18,88
Dismantling and got this and you know
and and if this aerating the local

327
00:27:18,89 --> 00:27:25,19
governments of forty regulate
land and zoning in and.

328
00:27:26,55 --> 00:27:32,48
Plant that that captures you know now as
an employer we may have some beefs with

329
00:27:32,49 --> 00:27:36,81
one regulation or another but I mean we're
in the same boat as everyone else when

330
00:27:36,82 --> 00:27:42,40
it comes to that OK I mean you know great
you know any employer up and down the

331
00:27:42,41 --> 00:27:49,37
street is subject to the same rules that
that particular law I think think that

332
00:27:49,38 --> 00:27:55,30
I would rather do was tell them Please
don't be meddling and zoning land use and

333
00:27:56,19 --> 00:27:58,18
that kind of thing so
rather than give them

334
00:27:58,19 --> 00:28:01,20
a list of things we don't like I tell
them subject matter we don't want them

335
00:28:01,21 --> 00:28:05,70
meddling and we thought about that but when
we met with their representatives great

336
00:28:05,71 --> 00:28:08,79
they understand it because they want to
know what numbers do you want us to vote

337
00:28:08,80 --> 00:28:14,36
against well that was clever. Oh so OK so
now I would prefer you go to have seven

338
00:28:14,37 --> 00:28:19,17
little ones you sponsor to explain my
point is that you know they may they just

339
00:28:19,18 --> 00:28:22,06
want to look through this list and
say OK which ones truly Are they had

340
00:28:22,07 --> 00:28:24,95
a problem with that's
why we did it this way

341
00:28:25,19 --> 00:28:28,89
a man happy to take take we have the
document that you guys have attached the

342
00:28:28,90 --> 00:28:32,26
proposed legislation we can that we can
just send that letter form I'm happy to do

343
00:28:32,27 --> 00:28:36,59
that if you'd rather do that. Because they
are going to want to know when we go in

344
00:28:36,60 --> 00:28:39,80
and hear about the which
ones in particular you have

345
00:28:39,81 --> 00:28:45,81
a problem and then they went to him start
with the username because if you do they

346
00:28:45,85 --> 00:28:50,21
do they ask for details of why and
because like yeah they did OK here's

347
00:28:50,22 --> 00:28:56,13
a great example one sprinklers and I don't
want to do government regulations I

348
00:28:56,14 --> 00:29:00,16
don't want to put in more regulations on
people than we have to I mean government

349
00:29:00,17 --> 00:29:05,60
really gets out of control and so
many regulations. We try to hold that

350
00:29:05,61 --> 00:29:07,60
a bank in Franklin but
you know we try to do

351
00:29:07,61 --> 00:29:11,21
a good job with that but just like
sprinklers I don't want to make

352
00:29:11,27 --> 00:29:16,01
a broad sweeping. Ordinances
says everybody that builds

353
00:29:16,02 --> 00:29:18,25
a new building or builds
on your house has to have

354
00:29:18,26 --> 00:29:20,52
a sprinkler but yet when you have

355
00:29:20,53 --> 00:29:25,85
a development like when state when your
house is very close together and get

356
00:29:25,86 --> 00:29:29,56
a lot of density that affects your
neighbor's house of your house goes up

357
00:29:29,57 --> 00:29:33,58
a spokeswoman You may have two or three
houses on fire just like that also we're

358
00:29:33,74 --> 00:29:35,38
talking we're now talking
about you know if you had

359
00:29:35,39 --> 00:29:38,76
a house on top of the hill and you can't
get the water pressure up there that's

360
00:29:38,77 --> 00:29:41,54
when you need to have sprinklers
So we need this sort of

361
00:29:41,55 --> 00:29:45,30
a lonely Look that's what what I say out
of their representatives was one of the

362
00:29:45,31 --> 00:29:47,68
city who like to exempt this
requirement at this time

363
00:29:47,69 --> 00:29:50,57
a sprinkler night when they
wish to revisit the issue at

364
00:29:50,58 --> 00:29:54,25
a future date when I feel guilty now where
you say don't take it or don't take it

365
00:29:54,26 --> 00:29:58,29
away absolutely let us be able to look at
because it's not that we necessarily want

366
00:29:58,30 --> 00:30:02,38
to put that regulation on but there may
be cases where we need to do that because

367
00:30:02,39 --> 00:30:04,98
when you have the deaths you
have no water pressure to get

368
00:30:04,99 --> 00:30:07,87
a fire you can't get
fired to keep your water

369
00:30:07,88 --> 00:30:12,24
a better look wish you had it is going to
be there. Exactly what this does is take

370
00:30:12,25 --> 00:30:17,65
are thirty points I will support that
but. I don't know who was there Richelle

371
00:30:17,66 --> 00:30:21,51
thank you. Well it's now been amended.

372
00:30:24,96 --> 00:30:28,76
You should ask someone to sponsor
that legislation that's basically

373
00:30:28,77 --> 00:30:34,23
a little bit less an amendment has made
it provided some forty but it requires

374
00:30:34,24 --> 00:30:40,86
right now as amended two thirds vote of the
local body to enact it. That would put

375
00:30:40,87 --> 00:30:42,02
it in the same level as

376
00:30:42,03 --> 00:30:46,98
a charter amendment. We don't have that
kind of requirement for anything else we do

377
00:30:47,91 --> 00:30:51,45
you know we vote for millions of dollars
for projects annexations all sorts of

378
00:30:51,46 --> 00:30:54,29
other things with reasonings with with

379
00:30:54,30 --> 00:31:00,79
a simple majority of this board and that's
been raised. And even members talked

380
00:31:00,80 --> 00:31:06,39
about this today but they for whatever
reason didn't address the issue. A smaller

381
00:31:06,40 --> 00:31:10,37
body a body of eight that two
thirds turns into six of

382
00:31:10,38 --> 00:31:16,03
a. Body of five which is not uncommon
That's four of five that would have to

383
00:31:16,04 --> 00:31:16,97
approve it so I brought

384
00:31:16,98 --> 00:31:22,01
a smaller body which is typical of
most cities or boards is going to have

385
00:31:22,02 --> 00:31:26,84
a huge number so two thirds can turn into
seventy five or eighty percent pretty

386
00:31:26,85 --> 00:31:28,18
quickly which is

387
00:31:28,19 --> 00:31:34,11
a pretty high threshold and ironically the
state is voting this in potentially on

388
00:31:34,12 --> 00:31:39,95
a simple majority. Of. Our

389
00:31:40,68 --> 00:31:46,08
representatives to specify which bills
will go on you know we could argue about

390
00:31:46,09 --> 00:31:48,46
this for the next two months but there's

391
00:31:48,47 --> 00:31:53,59
a time limit to this because many of these
things are being voted on as we speak.

392
00:31:55,05 --> 00:32:01,61
So you know if we want to go through.
This but I think it's what we.

393
00:32:03,97 --> 00:32:10,89
All. For the

394
00:32:11,05 --> 00:32:17,97
great. Number. Of separation
bit words the office of.

395
00:32:19,79 --> 00:32:22,02
The Franklin honestly in the coal mine

396
00:32:22,03 --> 00:32:24,95
a live one thousand seven hundred thirty
four dollars for crease supply and

397
00:32:24,96 --> 00:32:29,10
planning an oil contract first
Interstate sixty five interchange of Q.

398
00:32:29,11 --> 00:32:35,63
And drive through the parks department
this is the McEwen plan that was presented

399
00:32:35,64 --> 00:32:35,85
to you

400
00:32:35,86 --> 00:32:41,92
a couple meetings ago snacking groups here
at our arborist this was it came in well

401
00:32:41,93 --> 00:32:45,38
below what we expected we did it because
we thought it might go over twenty five

402
00:32:45,39 --> 00:32:51,54
thousand and it came in at around eleven
thousand seven hundred so it's prepared

403
00:32:51,55 --> 00:32:57,64
for work based on that so. Tired of if
there's anything else. You know are they

404
00:32:57,65 --> 00:33:02,81
supposed to be here for the year maybe two
or three years. Thing that's required

405
00:33:03,37 --> 00:33:05,28
water control seize control.

406
00:33:12,93 --> 00:33:18,16
Number nine considerations sole source
purchase trade in for two thousand and fifty

407
00:33:18,17 --> 00:33:25,10
nine hundred grand master MO or. So our
dollars for our part question about that.

408
00:33:26,97 --> 00:33:33,34
It's lights. Yes or no that hasn't
lived up to our expectations.

409
00:33:34,38 --> 00:33:38,10
In the fifty dead vendors working
with us to replace it at

410
00:33:38,11 --> 00:33:44,43
a. Very low cost compared to the original
acquisition which was what sixty four

411
00:33:44,44 --> 00:33:45,50
thousand to purchase but

412
00:33:45,51 --> 00:33:50,71
a new one now is more like seventy
plus thousand so this will be

413
00:33:50,72 --> 00:33:53,28
a small source and to replace
and we did this with

414
00:33:53,29 --> 00:33:56,83
a piece of equipment and solid waste
a couple pieces of equipment waste

415
00:33:56,84 --> 00:33:58,73
a year or so ago and this is

416
00:33:58,74 --> 00:34:02,18
a similar arrangement where they're
essential to working with us to provide

417
00:34:02,54 --> 00:34:08,40
a new piece of equipment in consideration
for the problems we had with equipment we

418
00:34:08,41 --> 00:34:09,57
spent quite a bit of money on just

419
00:34:09,58 --> 00:34:16,02
a few years ago. Two thousand
and twelve. Thanks for.

420
00:34:18,58 --> 00:34:25,10
The number to consider rejecting all bills
for three rescue chancy placement some

421
00:34:25,11 --> 00:34:30,83
associated work for the fire department.
This had been included in your budget.

422
00:34:32,53 --> 00:34:39,49
The. Memo covers that but that what came
back was very expensive and had lots and

423
00:34:39,50 --> 00:34:44,55
lots of exceptions associated with it
with only one vendor responding and quite

424
00:34:44,56 --> 00:34:45,85
frankly we just don't think this is

425
00:34:45,86 --> 00:34:51,36
a good value for so at this point so what
Chief come in if there's nothing else to

426
00:34:51,36 --> 00:34:57,81
. Exceptions there is no. QUESTION We just

427
00:34:58,24 --> 00:34:59,34
go there which vendor.

428
00:35:08,60 --> 00:35:14,63
One thing I would just highlight for it
soon we go ahead and reject this big. Fire

429
00:35:14,64 --> 00:35:21,50
department staff is looking at an alternative
that would use large S.U.V.s in this

430
00:35:21,51 --> 00:35:26,70
room that we could equip in and
get this job done that would be

431
00:35:26,71 --> 00:35:32,21
a significant savings. That
also might serve us for.

432
00:35:33,86 --> 00:35:39,78
The time being as we look at what we want
to do related to medical transport it

433
00:35:39,79 --> 00:35:43,69
would just preserve that option for you
down the line to look at that if you want

434
00:35:43,70 --> 00:35:49,07
to equip more for that service this just
keeps that option open for you those

435
00:35:49,17 --> 00:35:55,99
S.U.V.s could be repurposed into vehicles
we have some of our battalion chiefs

436
00:35:55,100 --> 00:36:00,40
and other kind of administrative vehicles
that we have in the department so there's

437
00:36:00,69 --> 00:36:04,58
some options there to save some money
and keep some flexibility depending on

438
00:36:04,62 --> 00:36:10,01
whatever decisions come our way in the next
year or two related to that service so

439
00:36:10,02 --> 00:36:13,78
that's. Another option that we're giving
some exploration to as an alternative to

440
00:36:13,79 --> 00:36:18,09
this that would be significantly cheaper
or more more than one hundred thousand

441
00:36:18,10 --> 00:36:24,28
dollars per year probably savings so chief
is good for you just simply really do

442
00:36:24,29 --> 00:36:25,22
this is there

443
00:36:26,11 --> 00:36:32,92
a reason that will get more of that
with others. I don't think you know

444
00:36:32,93 --> 00:36:37,27
getting more based on the purpose for that
specific be it in the reason why we went

445
00:36:37,28 --> 00:36:42,55
out one of the things we were looking at
doing was remounting our current rescue

446
00:36:42,56 --> 00:36:49,32
boxes chassis so in this discourse
prohibited and the vendor

447
00:36:49,33 --> 00:36:55,49
said it would some of the warranties just
forest the chassis cement so we made an

448
00:36:55,99 --> 00:36:59,19
executive decision to you know take

449
00:36:59,20 --> 00:37:04,47
a few steps back and punt in West Texas
and then some see you know what we can do

450
00:37:04,57 --> 00:37:04,91
to make

451
00:37:04,92 --> 00:37:11,70
a better decision term for us is. It really
at this cost you'd be better off buying

452
00:37:11,71 --> 00:37:16,96
new and we're not sure you know we need to
look at all those considerations but the

453
00:37:17,07 --> 00:37:17,87
largest C.B.

454
00:37:17,88 --> 00:37:20,52
Option is when we are looking at I just
want to share that with you because that

455
00:37:20,53 --> 00:37:20,85
would be

456
00:37:20,86 --> 00:37:25,71
a pretty significant shift for one of the
things that fire staff has pointed out is

457
00:37:25,72 --> 00:37:31,46
that we equip all three of these the same
now and that may not be the smartest

458
00:37:31,47 --> 00:37:32,65
thing to do we might want to look at

459
00:37:32,66 --> 00:37:38,88
a more specialized equipping of these
different pieces of equipment based on where

460
00:37:38,89 --> 00:37:42,67
they're located how they're used to pickle
So that's that's another consideration

461
00:37:42,68 --> 00:37:46,87
as well if you said examples
of those really yes

462
00:37:46,88 --> 00:37:51,50
a matter of trying to pull
apart Louisiana runs an S.U.V.

463
00:37:51,78 --> 00:37:56,62
Vehicle for the paramedic quick response
there's other models out there across the

464
00:37:56,63 --> 00:38:03,51
country as well. For lead
with sort of your cooperation

465
00:38:03,52 --> 00:38:08,64
agreement on housing authority for
forty unit. Properties senior housing.

466
00:38:11,44 --> 00:38:16,13
We think Byrne's coming up on this is what
we had discussed this two weeks ago this

467
00:38:16,14 --> 00:38:16,63
is really

468
00:38:16,64 --> 00:38:21,61
a payment in lieu of taxes agreement
consistent with what we've had in place for

469
00:38:22,36 --> 00:38:27,07
thirty plus years with the housing
authority it aligns with the redevelopment

470
00:38:27,08 --> 00:38:32,01
projects they're getting ready to do and
I'll let me touch on any other details

471
00:38:32,42 --> 00:38:37,30
that then good evening that's pretty much
it will we want to do because there are

472
00:38:37,37 --> 00:38:42,24
different the housing authority does seem
to be phasing in the redevelopment of

473
00:38:42,25 --> 00:38:47,21
their properties this is really the very
first piece of that it's the forty nine

474
00:38:47,22 --> 00:38:54,05
unit senior housing buildings down
will be on the ready. And as we go

475
00:38:54,06 --> 00:39:00,61
forward depending on. How we phase
those in we want to update each of

476
00:39:01,14 --> 00:39:04,79
the cooperative cooperation
agreements in the fifty's it's.

477
00:39:08,38 --> 00:39:14,23
Cleaned up the study in three to four
months of moving dirt. They play. You know

478
00:39:14,24 --> 00:39:19,91
they're here in the site yeah they got the
site ready and there is this is needed

479
00:39:19,92 --> 00:39:26,61
to form an alliance and low income
housing tax credits there will help

480
00:39:26,62 --> 00:39:33,32
fund that piece. And again here is the
one they have been in place nineteen

481
00:39:33,80 --> 00:39:38,01
nineteen sixties before many
of you were born since.

482
00:39:45,94 --> 00:39:52,08
The time. Number twelve consideration
of removed by county of solid waste

483
00:39:52,09 --> 00:39:57,01
management. We're going to have another
couple of vendors that want to speak to

484
00:39:57,02 --> 00:40:01,90
this but if you go ahead and see what
are some discussions. I don't spend

485
00:40:01,91 --> 00:40:06,27
a ton of time on this in terms
of we presented to staff

486
00:40:06,28 --> 00:40:08,32
a lot of information on it
but I do want to update

487
00:40:08,33 --> 00:40:14,01
a few things for you. And touch on some
additional information that we may not have

488
00:40:14,02 --> 00:40:19,10
last week or may clarify a little
further. First of all we did

489
00:40:19,93 --> 00:40:26,62
a calculation of savings or relative
cost of these options as you

490
00:40:26,63 --> 00:40:32,05
remember when we originally calculated it
we calculated on basically for three year

491
00:40:32,06 --> 00:40:36,96
terms and what has alternately happened
is an initial turn of two and then for

492
00:40:36,97 --> 00:40:41,56
three year terms so we calculated
it on that structure it's not

493
00:40:41,57 --> 00:40:45,57
a significant difference but it
is a little bit different with

494
00:40:45,58 --> 00:40:52,38
a range of savings in the next five year
outlook period. Of five hundred five

495
00:40:52,39 --> 00:40:58,92
hundred fifty two thousand and. About nine
hundred thirty eight thousand dollars it

496
00:40:58,93 --> 00:41:00,88
is estimated savings just within

497
00:41:00,89 --> 00:41:05,42
a five year horizon based on that contract
structure an average savings of just

498
00:41:05,43 --> 00:41:07,15
over three quarters of a million dollars

499
00:41:07,16 --> 00:41:11,33
a year is what that would come out to since
numbers have been updated to reflect

500
00:41:11,72 --> 00:41:17,80
the contract as it as it is there. One of
the things we have done also is perform

501
00:41:17,81 --> 00:41:22,45
this ever that we met with the employees
and then we met with the entire solid

502
00:41:22,46 --> 00:41:24,96
waste department but if we can

503
00:41:24,97 --> 00:41:29,100
a half ago in one of the questions that
we had been asked specifically as well

504
00:41:30,01 --> 00:41:31,28
would by county do

505
00:41:31,72 --> 00:41:37,57
a landfill or tip fee only option what would
that look like and so we did ask that

506
00:41:37,58 --> 00:41:42,10
question by county and what they
came back with was that would be

507
00:41:42,11 --> 00:41:48,90
a twenty dollars per ton rate
for Took the only and I did do

508
00:41:48,91 --> 00:41:53,49
a calculation based on that what our
costs are right now for hauling that we

509
00:41:53,50 --> 00:41:55,85
provide going to middle point which is

510
00:41:55,86 --> 00:42:00,03
a round trip of one hundred eight miles our
two thousand and thirteen projection is

511
00:42:00,04 --> 00:42:04,83
that cost per ton for transportation
provided by the city is eleven dollars and

512
00:42:04,84 --> 00:42:05,62
twenty eight cents

513
00:42:05,66 --> 00:42:12,44
a ton if you. Provide that or look at that.
Extrapolate that on one hundred sixty

514
00:42:12,45 --> 00:42:18,66
six mile round trip which is what the
Course is from here to the bike County lane

515
00:42:18,67 --> 00:42:22,33
fill that comes out to just
over seventeen dollars

516
00:42:22,37 --> 00:42:26,35
a ton in terms of transportation costs based
on what we're calculating it costs us

517
00:42:26,54 --> 00:42:30,37
to do it ourselves so that takes
you to about thirty seven dollars

518
00:42:30,38 --> 00:42:33,14
a ton compared to the contract
which is thirty two dollars

519
00:42:33,15 --> 00:42:37,84
a ton but you know we've been asked to
look at that we did look at that and I

520
00:42:37,85 --> 00:42:40,94
wanted to share that
that with you there are

521
00:42:40,95 --> 00:42:46,02
a couple terms in the agreement and I
apologize this got to late but we've this is

522
00:42:46,03 --> 00:42:51,44
been something we ask by county if they'd
be willing to do and we provided you with

523
00:42:51,96 --> 00:42:56,44
an updated agreement and there to change
to primary changes that are in the

524
00:42:56,45 --> 00:43:02,77
agreement from what you've got on Friday.
The one is reflected on page two

525
00:43:03,52 --> 00:43:04,15
and it's really

526
00:43:04,16 --> 00:43:10,13
a simple question it just talks about
special special waste being essentially

527
00:43:10,14 --> 00:43:15,46
little lines that with what the definition
is by the state of Tennessee the rules.

528
00:43:17,56 --> 00:43:24,04
Related to what special waste is
instead of having the six or seven.

529
00:43:25,41 --> 00:43:29,16
Descriptors that have been there before we
just went to a definition that mirrors T.

530
00:43:29,17 --> 00:43:33,93
Tax definition about special waste that
essentially simplifies that issue as

531
00:43:33,94 --> 00:43:38,31
opposed to what the definition is now
it just says we're going to match as an

532
00:43:38,32 --> 00:43:44,85
operator working with by county what
what the state regulations are.

533
00:43:46,07 --> 00:43:51,59
And that similar language is on page
five on Section seven it also gets to

534
00:43:51,97 --> 00:43:55,85
hazardous waste and what's disallowed by
the state just gets us in alignment with

535
00:43:55,86 --> 00:43:58,91
what state conditions
are and the next one is

536
00:43:58,92 --> 00:44:05,82
a pretty pretty important change
on page six. It relates to the

537
00:44:05,83 --> 00:44:11,57
terms of the agreement and we have
altered that that the extension. To the

538
00:44:11,58 --> 00:44:17,82
agreement that two years and every
three years is at the city's option

539
00:44:18,36 --> 00:44:23,91
so is purely the city's decision whether
to continue on after two years after

540
00:44:23,92 --> 00:44:28,36
subsequent three years each each renewal
period is the city's option to decide

541
00:44:28,37 --> 00:44:32,96
whether to renew and continue the agreement
that really does provide us with this

542
00:44:32,97 --> 00:44:33,75
baseline of

543
00:44:33,92 --> 00:44:40,34
a true opportunity at the city's discretion
to have fourteen years. Capacity

544
00:44:41,05 --> 00:44:45,24
So those are changes that came out just
in the last day as we were going over

545
00:44:45,25 --> 00:44:49,08
language and trying to clean up
things apologize that this came to

546
00:44:49,09 --> 00:44:53,16
a little late but they're fairly straightforward
and I think fairly important in

547
00:44:53,17 --> 00:44:57,99
that they are beneficial to the city there
is one other element that I included in

548
00:44:58,00 --> 00:45:02,69
the memo that I thought was important we
had talked about the potential of getting

549
00:45:02,70 --> 00:45:07,03
this service and that is absolutely an
option that is open to the board to look at

550
00:45:07,04 --> 00:45:12,02
and to bid this out and to see what what
gets delivered through that process as

551
00:45:12,03 --> 00:45:17,50
opposed to this partnership with another
local government authority I would only

552
00:45:17,51 --> 00:45:21,09
ask that whatever decision we
make we make so that we can have

553
00:45:21,10 --> 00:45:26,77
a bid out on the streets by April one which
we can do we can be prepared to do that

554
00:45:26,78 --> 00:45:27,61
but we need

555
00:45:27,62 --> 00:45:31,94
a decision from you all so that we can do
that and be ready to release something

556
00:45:31,95 --> 00:45:37,80
neighbor one so that we're ready by July
one when our existing contract expires.

557
00:45:39,38 --> 00:45:40,25
To get into

558
00:45:40,26 --> 00:45:45,46
a more beneficial arrangement which is the
goal of everybody involved in this so I

559
00:45:45,47 --> 00:45:49,69
would just ask you whatever decision you
make that we keep that timeframe in mind

560
00:45:50,41 --> 00:45:54,06
really by the end of the month that we
would be out on the street with the bid if

561
00:45:54,07 --> 00:45:59,51
that's what you want to do if you want to
proceed with this that's you know we can

562
00:45:59,52 --> 00:46:03,08
move forward with executing that as well
but that is one of the options we talked

563
00:46:03,09 --> 00:46:06,53
about and that would just be the only thing
I would ask you to do if you go down

564
00:46:06,54 --> 00:46:10,01
that road but let's make that
decision fairly quickly so we can get

565
00:46:10,02 --> 00:46:14,58
a bit out and get something done in time
to meet our timeframe related to the

566
00:46:14,59 --> 00:46:19,89
expiration of the existing her. And that
just kind of covers the clean up items

567
00:46:19,90 --> 00:46:21,43
that I and we made

568
00:46:21,44 --> 00:46:26,27
a pretty detailed case about why this makes
sense for the city in terms of locking

569
00:46:26,28 --> 00:46:30,49
in fourteen years of capacity saving us
somewhere between fifteen and twenty

570
00:46:30,50 --> 00:46:30,88
percent

571
00:46:30,89 --> 00:46:36,86
a year on what we're spending today to
dispose of waste and transport ways to the

572
00:46:36,87 --> 00:46:42,86
point so all of them are. We.

573
00:46:46,47 --> 00:46:53,08
We have. The right is that the way
we can certainly try to do that

574
00:46:53,68 --> 00:46:59,47
our experience hasn't produced that kind
of long term agreements in the past. But

575
00:46:59,62 --> 00:47:04,63
that is something we can so absolutely try
to generate from that process I don't

576
00:47:04,64 --> 00:47:08,36
know that's the uncertainty of the bid
process you don't know what will provide the

577
00:47:08,64 --> 00:47:15,54
past hasn't gotten us to that kind
of. Violence. You could argue that

578
00:47:15,55 --> 00:47:19,60
you could put guidelines on there that try
to mirror what we've developed here in

579
00:47:19,61 --> 00:47:23,75
the inner loop and we would just have to
see what comes out of that process there

580
00:47:23,76 --> 00:47:28,20
is uncertainty associated with any bid
process as we learned with the fire

581
00:47:28,21 --> 00:47:29,51
equipment we talked just

582
00:47:29,61 --> 00:47:34,34
a couple minutes ago you don't know what
the market will deliver the buy County

583
00:47:34,35 --> 00:47:36,89
agreement is a different
animal in that it is

584
00:47:36,90 --> 00:47:40,01
a partnership with another
local government to deliver

585
00:47:40,02 --> 00:47:45,16
a service that you know we could could have
we are able to provide if we if we were

586
00:47:45,17 --> 00:47:49,45
set up to do that that we can provide
through another governmental partner where

587
00:47:49,46 --> 00:47:52,91
you can get it just kind of gets in that
gray area where you can go either way.

588
00:47:56,68 --> 00:48:03,22
What happens if we did this out I know by
county said they would not then they're

589
00:48:03,23 --> 00:48:10,06
not in the process of. Getting
so does that offer go away. I

590
00:48:10,07 --> 00:48:14,11
think that would be up to them at that
point it would want to continue to provide

591
00:48:14,12 --> 00:48:19,93
that I'd I'd think by. They're saying this
is our best offer and you want to hear

592
00:48:19,94 --> 00:48:25,03
you don't hear is the way I understand the
terms I don't want to speak for them but

593
00:48:25,04 --> 00:48:28,96
that that's the way I understand
it I think we would be making

594
00:48:28,97 --> 00:48:30,80
a choice that we're going
to pick what comes out of

595
00:48:30,81 --> 00:48:35,64
a big process or. Take this you know
sort of a burden to hand versus what

596
00:48:35,68 --> 00:48:42,56
a big process might. As the vendors to
go there may be other questions that are

597
00:48:42,57 --> 00:48:49,49
generated so. When. You're
with Jerry Burke and I

598
00:48:49,50 --> 00:48:55,66
am with our public services many of your
familiar with. Our landfill legal name is

599
00:48:55,66 --> 00:49:01,86
. I want to speak on behalf of our company
and meetings we've had over the last

600
00:49:01,87 --> 00:49:06,79
couple of months with regard to the current
contract and expressed to the board and

601
00:49:06,80 --> 00:49:10,65
I know I'm probably worn out with phone
calls letters and e-mails are prepared to

602
00:49:10,66 --> 00:49:14,62
indulge me some of those some of you have
spoken to and some of you all I wish I

603
00:49:14,63 --> 00:49:19,76
had gotten a chance to but since I
am tonight should you know just

604
00:49:19,77 --> 00:49:24,47
a bit process far should you bid we have
expressed that we are confident that we

605
00:49:24,48 --> 00:49:29,96
would be able to save you money compared
to the contract offer. So we're certain

606
00:49:29,97 --> 00:49:34,72
that the bid process take place we will be
able to save you money below the thirty

607
00:49:34,73 --> 00:49:35,19
two dollars

608
00:49:35,20 --> 00:49:39,65
a ton what I would like to propose to the
board that I've explained express to Mr

609
00:49:39,66 --> 00:49:45,93
Stookey and. Everyone else in our meetings
is that we have two years left on the

610
00:49:45,94 --> 00:49:49,96
current contract and under that current
contract we would like to see all extend

611
00:49:49,97 --> 00:49:56,96
with us we will work with you all right to
save you money. Below that of what back

612
00:49:56,97 --> 00:49:58,77
alley has offered you and the center

613
00:49:58,78 --> 00:50:02,58
a number of things you know taken care of
your taxpayers the citizens but you're

614
00:50:02,59 --> 00:50:07,89
also keeping your current employees employed
and it gives you two more years to go

615
00:50:07,90 --> 00:50:13,02
through this process to see what you think
you might want to do going forward and I

616
00:50:13,03 --> 00:50:17,14
just would really like to see ya'll table
this at least for two more weeks since

617
00:50:17,15 --> 00:50:18,57
that would even give you time to get to

618
00:50:18,58 --> 00:50:23,20
a point to do the bed process at all hours
the opportunity to extend under the

619
00:50:23,21 --> 00:50:24,79
current agreement and give you all

620
00:50:24,80 --> 00:50:29,55
a beneficial price that will save you money
in the long term over the next two year

621
00:50:29,56 --> 00:50:35,78
period beyond that of what
he has to offer. But I don't

622
00:50:36,69 --> 00:50:42,61
I'll be frank to get out of the.
And when he asked to put in.

623
00:50:43,79 --> 00:50:44,23
For

624
00:50:44,24 --> 00:50:50,89
a two year term with. Four additional three
year terms on the Republic exemption to

625
00:50:50,90 --> 00:50:57,70
that provision we. Did To be honest
with especially in the case of

626
00:50:57,71 --> 00:51:02,19
what the city of five one is looking for
you don't have to go through this every

627
00:51:02,20 --> 00:51:06,06
two years or every five years you want to
be you have comfort knowing where your

628
00:51:06,07 --> 00:51:10,58
waste is going on and we have the ability
to where that will not be an issue over

629
00:51:10,59 --> 00:51:14,98
that period of town to be able to take all
of us from the city of Franklin to our

630
00:51:14,99 --> 00:51:16,27
little point landfill and

631
00:51:16,28 --> 00:51:21,90
a re not going to refinance flights only
get the rate of inflation we would be able

632
00:51:21,91 --> 00:51:22,90
to do a C.P.I.

633
00:51:22,91 --> 00:51:27,05
Increase and I'll work take care only speak
right now just because I don't have not

634
00:51:27,06 --> 00:51:31,26
made that contract early enough but what
I am offering for the for the first two

635
00:51:31,27 --> 00:51:35,38
years right now under the current claimant
is to guarantee the right and not have

636
00:51:35,39 --> 00:51:40,15
an increase going forward for the next two
years under the current agreement OK so

637
00:51:41,12 --> 00:51:44,03
that's a yes as to that's

638
00:51:44,04 --> 00:51:49,97
a no as to would probably take exception.
I don't know that we went out of have to

639
00:51:49,98 --> 00:51:55,76
have. The tongue is not an issue that time
is not an issue with us here. And three

640
00:51:55,77 --> 00:52:02,53
options. That's why it's. The way the current
agreement rage and we entered into it

641
00:52:02,54 --> 00:52:06,31
I'm pretty sure we probably would be able
to enter into that going forward but

642
00:52:06,32 --> 00:52:10,48
that's something I would have to see the
specs and just to get confirmation that

643
00:52:10,49 --> 00:52:11,32
say one reason why

644
00:52:12,30 --> 00:52:17,45
a little hesitant just to say yes
without saying in the documents.

645
00:52:20,29 --> 00:52:21,06
Let me take

646
00:52:21,07 --> 00:52:24,96
a little pride if you will short one of the
vendor that wanted to speak if I could

647
00:52:24,97 --> 00:52:29,94
bring her. Throughput we would have asked
Red Mist we're going to the landfill that

648
00:52:29,95 --> 00:52:34,16
you take this to Murfreesboro Middleby line
same one you're just right now and sure

649
00:52:34,17 --> 00:52:38,60
we're right how many are says let's get
them right now it's right around twenty but

650
00:52:38,61 --> 00:52:44,22
that changes in fluctuation with an
increase in recycling. Right now it's

651
00:52:44,23 --> 00:52:48,28
a twenty so it would not be an issue we're
going to years ago are talking the time

652
00:52:48,28 --> 00:52:52,38
. But I don't know if I'm through talk
and if I am or if I still have an

653
00:52:52,39 --> 00:52:59,03
opportunity but like I say I really want
to stress that for. Tonight's vote to go

654
00:52:59,04 --> 00:53:03,22
with back tally seriously consent of the
fact that we can or can see all your

655
00:53:03,23 --> 00:53:07,10
rights to save your money over the next two
years guarantee that right walk in for

656
00:53:07,11 --> 00:53:12,33
two years keep your citizens that work for
you all employees and also give you the

657
00:53:12,34 --> 00:53:15,65
savings that you're looking for which
will help your tax payers which on those

658
00:53:15,66 --> 00:53:21,47
we're told and so forth so you're
saying that you could be that.

659
00:53:23,69 --> 00:53:28,32
Over the this what you're doing in there
I'm not I'm not saying exactly what I can

660
00:53:28,33 --> 00:53:32,65
come into right now but I can't do that due
to the fact that it's public knowledge

661
00:53:32,91 --> 00:53:37,58
I'm merely letting you know that it weakens
we can that's why save money compared

662
00:53:37,59 --> 00:53:41,84
to what they're offering you and I can
also save you money over the next two year

663
00:53:41,85 --> 00:53:46,48
period to lock in that rate to give you the
savings that are beyond what back down

664
00:53:46,49 --> 00:53:50,17
and soften you for the time to almost
indifferent to two years of savings were

665
00:53:50,51 --> 00:53:57,15
fourteen years of certainty yes and I.
Might. Yes these boards got to feel that

666
00:53:57,89 --> 00:54:04,24
there was some strong consensus to make
war. And this is you well know this is

667
00:54:04,25 --> 00:54:08,73
a volatile thing it's not that I don't want
to sit here and do this every two years

668
00:54:09,02 --> 00:54:12,74
it's not if I have to do this every two
years someone's going to want to tell me

669
00:54:12,75 --> 00:54:17,12
forty five don't understand that I'm
here we talk about the fact that I'm

670
00:54:17,13 --> 00:54:20,65
a card vendor and we've got two years left
on our agreement what I can do for you

671
00:54:20,66 --> 00:54:25,13
going forward for two years should
modern tennis type of like to see

672
00:54:25,14 --> 00:54:30,38
a bit and not go into an agreement with
bottling and then it because I'm certain

673
00:54:30,39 --> 00:54:36,15
you know the savings that I can offer but.
I just want to be clear we did review

674
00:54:36,16 --> 00:54:40,32
the two year extension under the existing
agreement we would have to be very

675
00:54:40,33 --> 00:54:45,37
careful in how that structure because
that's very defined relative to the current

676
00:54:45,38 --> 00:54:50,38
rate and that the escalator
that's in place. We did

677
00:54:50,39 --> 00:54:55,08
a good process in that bid process had
other competitors involved in this is what

678
00:54:55,09 --> 00:54:59,87
came out of it for us to kind of tear it
up and do something different the next two

679
00:54:59,88 --> 00:55:06,34
years in terms of rate except is really
not consistent with that open competitive

680
00:55:06,35 --> 00:55:10,88
process where everybody put their deal
out on the table so if we start changing

681
00:55:10,89 --> 00:55:15,56
that dramatically I'm not sure that's
consistent with what that contract provides

682
00:55:15,57 --> 00:55:21,12
for and what our process provides for
so what the contract says is we have.

683
00:55:22,37 --> 00:55:27,25
Options to add on to what we have now it's
around twenty six dollars and change I

684
00:55:27,26 --> 00:55:27,51
think

685
00:55:27,52 --> 00:55:32,99
a ton just for tipped the only that would
be allowed to escalate by the rate of

686
00:55:33,00 --> 00:55:37,02
inflation for the next twelve months and
then again by the rate of placing for the

687
00:55:37,03 --> 00:55:42,08
twelve months after that each one your
option each time so that's what the

688
00:55:42,09 --> 00:55:48,61
agreement provides for allows for it doesn't
really allow us to. Change the deal at

689
00:55:48,62 --> 00:55:49,89
this point because we have

690
00:55:50,00 --> 00:55:56,08
a system contract structure that we have
to really work within unless we go back to

691
00:55:56,09 --> 00:56:00,41
bid or we change the terms
we're dealing with on a on

692
00:56:00,42 --> 00:56:05,10
a broader basis so that either everybody
been done it or we go to different model.

693
00:56:06,58 --> 00:56:10,99
Not be an attorney I have worked within
the body of agreements where we have not

694
00:56:11,00 --> 00:56:16,73
changed services but have worked with
government entities on price and forgiven

695
00:56:16,84 --> 00:56:22,02
price increases and or rollback so I don't
know I'm not speaking as an attorney but

696
00:56:22,03 --> 00:56:26,91
I think that's something I would sure want
to look into because I if it can be done

697
00:56:26,91 --> 00:56:33,80
. We were wounded in that squad let me
just worlds make his comments. Very

698
00:56:34,36 --> 00:56:38,08
manage him well see Amir vice president
voice management so you can check in

699
00:56:38,09 --> 00:56:44,79
Alabama. Family operated the surviving
somewhere where it's all of it's always

700
00:56:44,80 --> 00:56:49,93
issues in the US. I will start off with
the Government's critics I will get right

701
00:56:49,94 --> 00:56:55,33
to it you offer Bachao to the page all these
are good all. Are here to tell you all

702
00:56:55,34 --> 00:56:58,91
that I don't believe is the
best offer you can get you know

703
00:56:58,92 --> 00:57:05,06
a good example there is right now
in this county we operate we whole

704
00:57:05,83 --> 00:57:09,79
and dispose of which from care and transfer
stations are brought in every day to

705
00:57:09,80 --> 00:57:15,07
our west came to landfill is the exact same
services Bakoyannis all do for you all

706
00:57:15,34 --> 00:57:20,12
the rate is substantially less than what
Bob County has offered you all to do the

707
00:57:20,13 --> 00:57:25,63
same exact services so you know
the the the notion that it's not

708
00:57:25,64 --> 00:57:30,12
a competitive market for transferring
supposal and you can't get

709
00:57:30,13 --> 00:57:36,58
a good deal of just negotiating it's
really not well founded. Republic in Bucks

710
00:57:36,59 --> 00:57:42,21
County or in this mortgage. Again there's
a there's a same county your unit has

711
00:57:42,22 --> 00:57:46,74
a better rate than they are right now so
it really makes no sense for me I'm still

712
00:57:46,75 --> 00:57:49,45
to do it and I applaud what
you do and we often see

713
00:57:49,46 --> 00:57:53,26
a lot of good work with this. But
I'm here to tell you that there's

714
00:57:53,27 --> 00:57:59,52
a better deal to be had you do watch things
go to bed bit. In addition to bed. In

715
00:57:59,53 --> 00:58:04,48
a waste management for years our whole
business model has been to collect in

716
00:58:04,49 --> 00:58:10,11
landfill solid waste. Be the best at it
we can be. Pretty well for but but the

717
00:58:10,12 --> 00:58:15,82
world is changing and we're changing
what we are developed in sustainability

718
00:58:15,83 --> 00:58:20,38
services and products much quicker than
anybody else in our industry and with that

719
00:58:20,43 --> 00:58:26,49
comes up to ninety percent of Frank. In
so. That we can bring the table in no one

720
00:58:26,50 --> 00:58:29,20
else in our space can salute the M.C.U.

721
00:58:29,21 --> 00:58:32,66
Or competitively business I've
got a personal interest being

722
00:58:32,67 --> 00:58:39,50
a resident here. Want to see the
right thing done. I absolutely

723
00:58:39,51 --> 00:58:42,41
know that the business
climate can write you or

724
00:58:42,42 --> 00:58:44,45
a very good position right now to get

725
00:58:44,46 --> 00:58:49,20
a great deal. And one of the things that
are just speak to the last work session

726
00:58:49,21 --> 00:58:54,36
was you know the pricing flexibility being
offered by block carry deal two years

727
00:58:54,37 --> 00:58:55,88
fixed three years C.P.I.

728
00:58:56,42 --> 00:59:02,60
If that's what the students are putting
bespeaks we will respond to. Well. But will

729
00:59:02,61 --> 00:59:07,32
you take exception to the term exceptions
to the term as laid out right now and

730
00:59:07,33 --> 00:59:07,44
it's

731
00:59:07,45 --> 00:59:13,74
a good two plus four times three fourteen
years of guaranteed rate. Of guarantee

732
00:59:13,75 --> 00:59:18,31
rate what side Gerry We absolutely are
copies of some we walk long term deals as

733
00:59:18,32 --> 00:59:24,97
well I understand the world is changing
though in fourteen years from now I'm

734
00:59:24,98 --> 00:59:27,81
a big shock the first two words and about
them as they come for your transfer

735
00:59:27,82 --> 00:59:33,37
station there are things we can bring to
city right now that no one else can and

736
00:59:33,94 --> 00:59:37,98
that was so for example supplement your
blood bank program to get vastly more

737
00:59:38,06 --> 00:59:42,56
dissipative rates up in the city to reduce
your solo Westmeath your transportation

738
00:59:42,57 --> 00:59:48,89
to decrease that calls. There are things
like that that you will be fleshed out in

739
00:59:48,90 --> 00:59:54,95
the bid process that the
bad maybe can vary. There

740
00:59:55,68 --> 01:00:00,87
it you know cast your right now so your
fourteen year contract I can imagine folks

741
01:00:01,06 --> 01:00:04,82
that are going to say no we don't want to
own term deal those things we strive to

742
01:00:04,83 --> 01:00:08,72
do as well. But putting business
which you want to be looking.

743
01:00:12,02 --> 01:00:16,23
For is for sale in Fulton
County to Camden we have

744
01:00:16,24 --> 01:00:20,75
a contract to work for us. But to

745
01:00:20,76 --> 01:00:27,02
a feel for us we can one for us forget old
shops which is what you wore. Sort of

746
01:00:27,30 --> 01:00:30,54
but. Now I think it's
just under thirty dollars

747
01:00:30,55 --> 01:00:37,46
a time right now murders
here but. They still. Lose

748
01:00:37,47 --> 01:00:41,54
that money in the clarifying that I think
if you go to bed I would suggest you're

749
01:00:41,55 --> 01:00:46,41
going to be both the way to do it now
which is tip feelingly and we provide the

750
01:00:46,42 --> 01:00:52,10
transportation and I would suggest you
also bid the all in kind of transportation

751
01:00:52,11 --> 01:00:57,52
in the landfill services so you can look
at both options should you build this I

752
01:00:57,53 --> 01:01:02,18
think you need to look at both so that
doesn't necessarily mean. We don't we don't

753
01:01:02,19 --> 01:01:05,82
look at changing how we do disposal one
that did changes we talked about that would

754
01:01:05,83 --> 01:01:08,39
be associated with this
by county agreement still

755
01:01:08,40 --> 01:01:12,62
a very moral might happen that might
be the best deal for us out of

756
01:01:12,63 --> 01:01:18,79
a big process as well so I think it's
our obligation to look at both options

757
01:01:19,37 --> 01:01:21,42
Regardless either through
this in our local or through

758
01:01:21,43 --> 01:01:27,18
a bid process so you'd still be looking
at potential changes in that division in

759
01:01:27,22 --> 01:01:32,19
having to basically move some folks around
within that division terms of their

760
01:01:32,20 --> 01:01:37,03
responsibilities in as we've identified
about four positions that we would need to

761
01:01:37,48 --> 01:01:42,80
reallocate in the organization one more
thing one orbit as well as the way of fuel

762
01:01:42,88 --> 01:01:49,78
potential. Which can use thirty five years
place where we care goes to Brian Burke

763
01:01:49,79 --> 01:01:53,46
brothers first place there's also something
way through we have thirty seven miles

764
01:01:53,47 --> 01:02:00,27
away that we feel become in the next
six months. Which rocks with thirty

765
01:02:00,28 --> 01:02:05,83
seven percent of all of us are just thirsty
whether that's through the Cedar Ridge

766
01:02:05,83 --> 01:02:12,70
. Sugar's. Says we're true to those
so. I think it's pretty obvious by

767
01:02:12,71 --> 01:02:18,82
these two gentlemen sitting here that our
businesses desired and only spoke out two

768
01:02:18,83 --> 01:02:20,93
weeks ago that I thought we need to put

769
01:02:20,94 --> 01:02:25,92
a bid process happen here and I'm new at
that sped. I don't know much about our

770
01:02:25,93 --> 01:02:30,45
local agreements and it's pretty obvious
but these guys sitting back here to watch

771
01:02:30,46 --> 01:02:31,91
their heads nodding agreement as

772
01:02:31,92 --> 01:02:36,73
a beautiful thing and I think there's two
sides of the coin I think there's getting

773
01:02:36,74 --> 01:02:40,39
the best deal financially for the city
that's and it's also trying to take care of

774
01:02:40,40 --> 01:02:45,23
our own and in fact can be done by any
means these guys don't want to drive

775
01:02:45,24 --> 01:02:50,04
a truck I don't think you're saying
people switch jobs but we've got

776
01:02:50,05 --> 01:02:54,69
a clip that we purchased for this department
that you know can be star plus can be

777
01:02:54,70 --> 01:02:57,71
sold what have you but putting out

778
01:02:57,75 --> 01:03:01,86
a bed that says that so many different
ways there's also the idea whoever gets it

779
01:03:01,87 --> 01:03:06,26
might be able to absorb our guys and them
doing what they love to do with the same

780
01:03:06,27 --> 01:03:10,25
rate of pay with the same similar benefits
that waste management could provide

781
01:03:10,26 --> 01:03:16,10
a republic or whomever. I just Mom bottom
line as I think that we're only going to

782
01:03:16,11 --> 01:03:17,19
have the best right if we had

783
01:03:17,20 --> 01:03:25,07
a bet out there and that's that's. We'll

784
01:03:25,08 --> 01:03:31,68
know what they're getting there
against you. All you know

785
01:03:32,63 --> 01:03:38,96
the. The. I mean the group
the local group we broadcast

786
01:03:39,94 --> 01:03:40,34
the group as

787
01:03:40,35 --> 01:03:47,01
a super took the bill of the now
we're also investigating. US

788
01:03:47,09 --> 01:03:47,95
may be doing

789
01:03:47,96 --> 01:03:53,75
a co-op with other cities and counties
here in middle Tennessee that have

790
01:03:53,76 --> 01:04:00,43
a future landfill over. And whispered
It's time for us to progress toward

791
01:04:00,44 --> 01:04:07,19
that if that seems to be what
will work best for the region

792
01:04:08,06 --> 01:04:14,69
you know these three gentlemen they're in
the business to make profit. And I still

793
01:04:14,70 --> 01:04:20,09
remember the two years ago
that we were caught. However

794
01:04:20,10 --> 01:04:26,96
a barrel because one of these companies
decided not to exercise their. Their

795
01:04:26,97 --> 01:04:32,90
option. Of extending the the bill would and
then the bid went up about twenty five

796
01:04:32,91 --> 01:04:39,79
percent. You know what I would go

797
01:04:39,80 --> 01:04:44,19
for long term every day so that
we were not put in that position.

798
01:04:47,06 --> 01:04:47,99
If I could just address

799
01:04:48,00 --> 01:04:52,60
a because I don't for some reason feel I
can spend conveyed to everyone that we

800
01:04:52,61 --> 01:04:56,62
proposed for the two year extension similar
to what we're doing now we proposed to

801
01:04:56,63 --> 01:05:02,37
keep signing and it was declined and put
out to be that once that happened that was

802
01:05:02,38 --> 01:05:07,52
all about hands and with that big going out
we were still the low bidder if the bid

803
01:05:07,53 --> 01:05:11,18
would have come back from ICE management
twenty three dollars we want to Bob we

804
01:05:11,55 --> 01:05:14,99
would have been fined you for your business
and you would have all of the lower bid

805
01:05:15,50 --> 01:05:20,53
we tried to extend at the current rate we
did not want to go to bid because we were

806
01:05:20,59 --> 01:05:25,73
we were pretty uncertain what the pricing
would be and we asked to extend for two

807
01:05:25,74 --> 01:05:31,24
more years and it went out to bid anyway
and I hate that but I guess it was well

808
01:05:31,28 --> 01:05:37,32
you know we didn't respond last year
in everything we did with it was.

809
01:05:38,44 --> 01:05:45,34
Just this time to talk to someone
else transfer suppose. It

810
01:05:45,35 --> 01:05:48,38
wasn't there. It's. Just

811
01:05:48,39 --> 01:05:53,43
a different school and so. That will be

812
01:05:53,63 --> 01:05:59,84
a direct. Back of the names will be the
nature of the tour on its own we care and.

813
01:06:01,71 --> 01:06:04,24
They've been paying for all it's not like

814
01:06:04,37 --> 01:06:10,36
a small search that writes already been
there before so she knows. It's got no it's

815
01:06:10,37 --> 01:06:14,78
got thirty five years versus. More yes.

816
01:06:17,16 --> 01:06:23,40
OK we'll move on number thirteen.
Now would function like to your

817
01:06:24,18 --> 01:06:28,42
knowledge general planning permission or
if you scratch plan and states of the I

818
01:06:28,43 --> 01:06:32,17
want. To page boiling units
on twelve point seven.

819
01:06:35,38 --> 01:06:41,07
For both history. It was just
doing their thing it was kind of

820
01:06:41,08 --> 01:06:47,74
a phone number so. This question

821
01:06:47,75 --> 01:06:53,49
regarding the projects we're glad you're
going to be able to call and David coming

822
01:06:53,50 --> 01:06:58,21
out of this is really if our wanted to see
if the discussion ongoing discussions

823
01:06:58,22 --> 01:07:03,38
we've been having for some time now and
there were three specific projects and if

824
01:07:03,39 --> 01:07:09,30
you just highlight and share some additional
information on this and any other

825
01:07:09,31 --> 01:07:13,46
guidance you want to provide just the
sense I had of two meetings ago was that

826
01:07:14,33 --> 01:07:14,62
there was

827
01:07:14,63 --> 01:07:21,54
a pretty good consensus around. The staff
recommendation for the most part with

828
01:07:21,82 --> 01:07:27,43
the exception of weighing in specifically
on the south Caruthers phase in and how

829
01:07:27,44 --> 01:07:31,83
you might want to approach that in part
because when we originally put that plan

830
01:07:31,84 --> 01:07:37,61
together. That South and North had not
been fully developed as an option and we

831
01:07:37,62 --> 01:07:41,46
have more information on that than we
originally did and wanted to make sure there

832
01:07:41,47 --> 01:07:45,34
was a clear understanding of
those two options and if that's

833
01:07:45,35 --> 01:07:50,13
a project you want. If you include that
we went in and the wood and the approach

834
01:07:50,14 --> 01:07:54,22
you wanted to in terms of the phasing option
and then took you in over calling them

835
01:07:54,23 --> 01:07:57,50
a human can connect to Earth which
is a somewhere between two and

836
01:07:57,51 --> 01:08:02,25
a half and three million dollars project
that will be activated at traffic circles

837
01:08:02,79 --> 01:08:07,13
at McEwen in Cool Springs
and help we think alleviate

838
01:08:07,14 --> 01:08:11,71
a potential bottleneck that we see with
the way it's set up now and help connect

839
01:08:11,72 --> 01:08:17,29
into the existing McKeown road and
make that work function better again

840
01:08:17,30 --> 01:08:21,76
a project that wasn't really on the radar
screen when that staff recommendation was

841
01:08:21,77 --> 01:08:26,30
formulated and then finally the
kind of when we're in N.C.A.A.

842
01:08:26,31 --> 01:08:29,76
Tournament time this was the first project
out I guess I would call it when you

843
01:08:29,77 --> 01:08:36,14
look at that analogy. Carlisle lane project
was one that was it was just outside of

844
01:08:36,85 --> 01:08:41,80
that priority group that we had and no there
had been some interest in that one too

845
01:08:41,81 --> 01:08:46,00
so we just these were the three that were
we kind of regarded as somewhat least

846
01:08:46,27 --> 01:08:49,40
that we wanted to see if there's other
information we can share and get any other

847
01:08:49,41 --> 01:08:54,92
feedback and Rocky through the three
specific projects and then to help with any

848
01:08:54,93 --> 01:08:59,30
discussion. Anything I'll just walk
through the three projects to get

849
01:08:59,31 --> 01:09:06,28
to. Our late stage project the
main purpose is obviously to

850
01:09:06,29 --> 01:09:13,27
see section. Adding biplanes on
the lab new car lot of lame will

851
01:09:13,28 --> 01:09:15,91
be having left turn lanes on
Highway ninety six and there's

852
01:09:15,92 --> 01:09:20,05
a multi-use trail on the north side of
Highway ninety six that will actually

853
01:09:20,09 --> 01:09:25,53
connect to the Makassar project the estimated
cost of that project is around two

854
01:09:25,54 --> 01:09:29,91
point two million dollars We're in the
process of finalizing the right away Dr

855
01:09:30,14 --> 01:09:34,61
right away that was initially as of
now it's one of the next projects and

856
01:09:34,62 --> 01:09:40,34
a huge drop tempered connector. To Meeting
this project to be about two point four

857
01:09:40,40 --> 01:09:44,58
billion dollars I will say that we're looking
at making some slight changes to this

858
01:09:44,59 --> 01:09:50,11
to extend its. The actual connection point
which was bumped up to around two point

859
01:09:50,12 --> 01:09:55,13
eight two point zero and. In the primary
purpose of this is do allow the run on the

860
01:09:55,14 --> 01:09:59,64
ballot to function as originally designed
and in addition it would allow us to

861
01:09:59,65 --> 01:10:05,28
delay the McEwen phase for the project as
far as doing the entire improvements that

862
01:10:05,29 --> 01:10:10,99
this made around twenty million dollars.
Go to the next page is an exhibit of what

863
01:10:11,00 --> 01:10:15,11
steps are generally looks like how that
will function as I mentioned before looking

864
01:10:15,12 --> 01:10:20,53
at shifting that connection point farther
reason to allow us to. Allow these

865
01:10:20,54 --> 01:10:21,10
purpose to be

866
01:10:21,30 --> 01:10:27,35
a long term temporary. Wanted in the
south for this project through the some

867
01:10:27,36 --> 01:10:32,19
questions still as to what to include
and what's not included it's basically

868
01:10:32,20 --> 01:10:37,17
brewing up into two phases essentially
thrown Falcon the creek to connect to route

869
01:10:38,03 --> 01:10:42,19
is it would be one phase of South for
others in the two lanes we're looking to do

870
01:10:42,20 --> 01:10:47,89
in the grading for four lanes of storm
drainage. That's estimated at around seven

871
01:10:47,90 --> 01:10:52,89
point six million dollars just going on
to the next phase south for others is

872
01:10:53,59 --> 01:10:57,80
essentially from connector road down to
true lane and then out of the three lead

873
01:10:57,81 --> 01:11:01,14
car can connect out the long
lane this section includes

874
01:11:01,15 --> 01:11:05,06
a bridge once again and we would be doing
the grading for all four of the future

875
01:11:05,07 --> 01:11:11,88
lanes it's estimated at about nine
million dollars. One question that was

876
01:11:11,89 --> 01:11:16,65
asked at the previous meeting was the
development potential We've worked with to

877
01:11:16,66 --> 01:11:21,09
try to highlight we're up to date as far
as development around the south for this

878
01:11:21,10 --> 01:11:24,89
project and next map highlights
the nickel bands of L.

879
01:11:24,94 --> 01:11:30,50
And civil for is developed the last part
in the areas farms and if you noticed the

880
01:11:31,08 --> 01:11:35,36
in the northern section of that
south Caruthers there's around

881
01:11:35,37 --> 01:11:40,02
a thousand homes that potentially could
develop at this point none have actually

882
01:11:40,03 --> 01:11:45,23
moved forward with the building and if you
look at the lad. There's no one in it

883
01:11:45,41 --> 01:11:50,65
that would go with. Start from essentially
connect to Truman lane there's around

884
01:11:50,66 --> 01:11:55,21
a thousand homes that have been approved
and your to have one hundred forty seven

885
01:11:55,22 --> 01:11:56,52
minutes R.T.

886
01:11:56,73 --> 01:12:02,24
Argued Bill. In addition we had to bury
forms just to highlight that as far as

887
01:12:02,56 --> 01:12:08,35
allowing that north to self connection. To
ground telephones that potentially have

888
01:12:08,36 --> 01:12:13,47
been approved to deal with this point
we're just hoping the discussion pushed.

889
01:12:16,72 --> 01:12:22,38
All the big fish in the first thing is
seeing these ideas here have they been run

890
01:12:22,39 --> 01:12:29,30
through new power. To see
what we're talking about

891
01:12:29,31 --> 01:12:34,38
internally to. Put Come let's just
service we're going to have because from

892
01:12:34,39 --> 01:12:41,34
Kipling's keep in mind and our debt
service. Even on just the committed

893
01:12:41,35 --> 01:12:48,08
projects which as around. Here is you know
explorer rather which we still have ten

894
01:12:48,09 --> 01:12:52,43
million dollars to borrow
plus what I consider to be

895
01:12:52,88 --> 01:12:59,81
a profit I would use project from your
Which was the cap for the service service

896
01:13:00,21 --> 01:13:04,29
for solid footing thanks to a bank on
Saturday late I don't have to call it was

897
01:13:04,30 --> 01:13:09,60
a play book report as I read it I did say
that with my background but that didn't

898
01:13:09,61 --> 01:13:14,11
matter because I didn't have back together
but that turns out to believe what about

899
01:13:14,59 --> 01:13:21,25
five. This year and next year about
five million dollars And in just

900
01:13:21,29 --> 01:13:26,94
just ruined Hillsboro which we committed
to what at least four years ago and.

901
01:13:28,59 --> 01:13:31,19
What is it cost tell me
again with the name of

902
01:13:31,20 --> 01:13:37,01
a consolidated purple worms out of any
public works those things right there could

903
01:13:38,00 --> 01:13:44,35
well but off why were. I were gathered and

904
01:13:45,05 --> 01:13:50,43
what we said would. We would Talfourd the
amount the amount of money that percent

905
01:13:51,07 --> 01:13:55,90
what is the percent of our
budget that goes to pay for it.

906
01:13:57,96 --> 01:14:04,44
For. That service that and so I'm very
concerned about that Nessa say I don't

907
01:14:04,45 --> 01:14:09,39
see those things run through that but even
even that that even at the things that

908
01:14:09,40 --> 01:14:12,99
we've already committed to because I'm
already bottom or else we said Hillsboro

909
01:14:13,30 --> 01:14:17,13
thirty years ago we're still going
to be you know well above that

910
01:14:17,14 --> 01:14:24,06
a person that. We have said is our debt
I mean it's at least ten percent every

911
01:14:24,07 --> 01:14:30,97
year. At least ten percent. We have
rescued talking about we've been

912
01:14:30,98 --> 01:14:35,68
working with Peter Fenn on that were
somewhat looking for your direction where we

913
01:14:35,69 --> 01:14:42,23
had done and the staff recommendation
included the Caruthers extension the seven

914
01:14:42,24 --> 01:14:47,43
point six million dollars project and
we did in that scenario but we had not

915
01:14:47,44 --> 01:14:52,11
included in the Q. And connector which is
not a huge number but it's about two and

916
01:14:52,12 --> 01:14:56,97
a half million dollars and Carlisle Like
I said was kind of the one that was just

917
01:14:57,54 --> 01:15:02,67
just outside of that funding group. So
that that's what we had but Russ I've been

918
01:15:02,68 --> 01:15:06,06
working on some other scenarios
with that so we've seen

919
01:15:06,07 --> 01:15:12,24
a few We've given them some information
that you have. That included the

920
01:15:12,44 --> 01:15:18,12
differential in the in the face in the
south commanders going from the seven

921
01:15:18,13 --> 01:15:22,92
million dollar lead to the nine million
dollars they had in the McEwen connector

922
01:15:23,53 --> 01:15:28,88
and if you remember the charts I mean
as you say that we were alone from debt

923
01:15:28,89 --> 01:15:34,59
service we were not I mean I'm sorry if
we had eight percent and we that's twenty

924
01:15:34,60 --> 01:15:40,76
five percent over what our that's self for
us more than what our guideline was and

925
01:15:40,77 --> 01:15:45,45
that was supposed to be the max and that
wasn't just what we wanted to pay that was

926
01:15:45,46 --> 01:15:50,92
supposed to be. Our at the top of the head
it is part of that context so it's one

927
01:15:50,93 --> 01:15:54,76
of multiple benchmarks that you have in
that policy and that's that's with that has

928
01:15:54,77 --> 01:16:00,49
been the problematic benchmark ever since
we've had the policy that's just one of

929
01:16:00,50 --> 01:16:03,79
those things and that's in part impacted
by the fact that we've reduced our budget

930
01:16:03,83 --> 01:16:09,66
as much as we have in the last three years
but it is one we will always look at it

931
01:16:09,67 --> 01:16:10,32
is one that in

932
01:16:10,33 --> 01:16:15,74
a growing community is going to be
particularly challenging but one that's why we

933
01:16:15,75 --> 01:16:19,55
look at all the different measures because
they all together picked give you

934
01:16:19,56 --> 01:16:22,46
a full picture so that it
could end up being more than

935
01:16:22,47 --> 01:16:28,03
a country mile and I were not touchy feely
and that's one of the to it's not for

936
01:16:28,04 --> 01:16:31,92
them or not touchy feely they are stats
that the bond rating agencies look at when

937
01:16:31,93 --> 01:16:36,82
they rate our debt and so they're all
important and that they are there we look at

938
01:16:36,83 --> 01:16:40,60
them all and that is always been the one
that has been the most challenging as you

939
01:16:40,61 --> 01:16:43,90
pointed out if we don't do any projects
that's still going to be one that will let

940
01:16:43,91 --> 01:16:44,22
it play

941
01:16:44,32 --> 01:16:48,61
a little research at the challenge areas
say that it's not pressuring not doing

942
01:16:48,62 --> 01:16:53,58
your projects it's not doing any that
we haven't already committed to and we

943
01:16:53,59 --> 01:16:54,34
committed to

944
01:16:54,35 --> 01:17:00,01
a brand new wood in the past twelve months
so we have committed to something new in

945
01:17:00,02 --> 01:17:05,45
the past twelve months but it's also those
things that we committed to what four

946
01:17:05,46 --> 01:17:09,17
years ago that we still
haven't done yet and I'm

947
01:17:09,18 --> 01:17:13,11
a recent pointless war rather than that
was one that wasn't that our second

948
01:17:13,40 --> 01:17:18,22
commitment on your staff one was not catch
twenty two in the playoffs and out I

949
01:17:18,23 --> 01:17:24,54
mean Air Force was my attention the last
our second was. And we still have got at

950
01:17:24,55 --> 01:17:28,92
least ten million dollars more that we've
got to borrow to do that and we need to

951
01:17:28,93 --> 01:17:33,52
then that's my still my catcher it would
be number one but you know it's probably

952
01:17:33,53 --> 01:17:39,85
a big number to. And and we've still got
to cross that money. As members include in

953
01:17:39,86 --> 01:17:45,35
the model that the film has presented
to us to know that we have

954
01:17:45,36 --> 01:17:50,55
a saying here. To keep singing the same
Old Sarum But in addition to lower the

955
01:17:50,56 --> 01:17:55,44
branches the other thing that I would ask
you to remember is we also play and we

956
01:17:55,45 --> 01:18:00,12
started those projects to borrow the money
somewhat evenly over the life of those

957
01:18:00,13 --> 01:18:04,56
projects but because of the stimulus
and because of the recoveries own

958
01:18:04,77 --> 01:18:10,44
opportunities to borrow from him we didn't
tie our seventy billion dollars in the

959
01:18:10,45 --> 01:18:16,39
first year instead of splicing it out as
we would normally do that but Scuse me for

960
01:18:16,40 --> 01:18:17,88
can't continue like this but

961
01:18:17,89 --> 01:18:22,64
a lot of that seventy million was to
actually take part of what that was to

962
01:18:22,76 --> 01:18:28,67
actually put. Things that we had already
done that forty four million of that was

963
01:18:28,68 --> 01:18:30,96
what we were really paying our sales back

964
01:18:31,26 --> 01:18:34,98
a big part of that was for paying ourselves
back to things that we had always been

965
01:18:34,98 --> 01:18:40,92
. But it really is not just we buy
the seventy million because it was

966
01:18:40,93 --> 01:18:45,29
a variable is it with a special bond
with your agreement that it moved

967
01:18:45,30 --> 01:18:47,25
a lot you've moved the debt service since

968
01:18:47,26 --> 01:18:52,01
a percentage of budget yes harder than you
normally would and that really scares

969
01:18:52,02 --> 01:18:57,40
that one particular. Financial guy for
how much of that do we have left that we

970
01:18:57,41 --> 01:19:03,40
have it. Couldn't give you know answer
exactly because I know it's going to Baghdad

971
01:19:03,41 --> 01:19:08,65
and. I mean we we have enough to cover
the projects that are still working like

972
01:19:08,66 --> 01:19:11,39
McKeown And we feel like
there's going to be

973
01:19:11,40 --> 01:19:17,32
a little leftover from there but we will
still need as you mentioned the family

974
01:19:17,33 --> 01:19:18,03
will still need

975
01:19:18,04 --> 01:19:23,12
a little bit more to finish his part roughly
half of it I'm sorry kid to me that's

976
01:19:23,13 --> 01:19:23,41
more than

977
01:19:23,42 --> 01:19:29,04
a little bit to me but my point he has now
is that we have like Front borrowed for

978
01:19:29,05 --> 01:19:35,30
the projects except maybe seven for
heels Barbara the rest of it we've

979
01:19:35,68 --> 01:19:41,31
basically space. Our state our Spinrad
processor on in the process some projects

980
01:19:41,32 --> 01:19:48,26
that progress as I say you
know. Not my. Because. If

981
01:19:48,27 --> 01:19:54,60
you see the tide even when they
see these they have they are debt

982
01:19:54,61 --> 01:19:58,88
service is. Kind of where ours it's.

983
01:20:02,27 --> 01:20:08,71
The cities of our sense. For the
common not I want to make sure I

984
01:20:08,72 --> 01:20:11,21
understood this life back.

985
01:20:15,79 --> 01:20:22,74
Trying to most of the developing right
now is the South. Looks more just

986
01:20:22,75 --> 01:20:29,41
to go south but the work based on the
number of residential units in our actively

987
01:20:29,42 --> 01:20:36,30
presently does to what Eric. Does that is
the project is that you say is there is

988
01:20:36,31 --> 01:20:43,26
a force of will. Saying that
over to the projects because.

989
01:20:45,14 --> 01:20:51,41
Really for the sooner we
don't. Push further. From.

990
01:20:52,54 --> 01:20:53,40
My church.

991
01:21:01,17 --> 01:21:02,41
If I may I want to just give you

992
01:21:02,42 --> 01:21:06,92
a quick update on the north side Chris
I'm sorry Chris pastoral approach St

993
01:21:06,93 --> 01:21:10,79
partners where the developer
of nickels been. Just as

994
01:21:10,80 --> 01:21:16,01
a quick update on the north side where
you're discussing phasing options we are

995
01:21:16,02 --> 01:21:19,97
actually in preparation to move forward
construction of our first section of ninety

996
01:21:19,98 --> 01:21:26,39
four lots we have those thoughts on the
contract with local builders and after

997
01:21:26,98 --> 01:21:32,05
a long awaited preparation we are in intently
hoping on breaking ground this summer

998
01:21:32,05 --> 01:21:36,71
. It would be on the eastern side of the
property along the existing Caruthers

999
01:21:37,72 --> 01:21:44,72
because this Parkway is not in place yet
and we would fast as there's demand

1000
01:21:44,73 --> 01:21:51,72
and supply will are was pushed. Push
west toward Caruthers Parkway but. Part

1001
01:21:51,73 --> 01:21:55,89
of the reason we've been able to secure
contracts with builders and have gained

1002
01:21:55,90 --> 01:22:00,16
interest from lenders is that demand is
picking up significantly and Franklin I

1003
01:22:00,17 --> 01:22:03,90
think you probably have all heard
that thankfully we're seeing

1004
01:22:03,91 --> 01:22:08,51
a good resurgence in demand from from single
family home buyers as well as renters

1005
01:22:08,52 --> 01:22:11,67
in the market and that we are seeing

1006
01:22:11,68 --> 01:22:18,46
a dearth of supply and. In terms of
high quality. That you can you can

1007
01:22:18,71 --> 01:22:24,54
look at statistics that will show. That
there are put improved residential lots in

1008
01:22:24,55 --> 01:22:30,44
Williamson County but when you break that
down into areas that are marketable more

1009
01:22:30,68 --> 01:22:36,84
ready for buyers those areas are dwindling
and we're seeing that in communities

1010
01:22:36,85 --> 01:22:40,66
that we already have developed such as
park place with significantly improved

1011
01:22:40,67 --> 01:22:45,19
improving velocity so I wanted to make
sure because I thought that statistic on

1012
01:22:45,20 --> 01:22:49,00
that chart was you know things are
moving fairly quickly I think that maybe

1013
01:22:49,01 --> 01:22:55,23
a month or so will and. I wanted to make
sure that the board knew that that Nichols

1014
01:22:55,24 --> 01:22:59,91
bend is moving forward and I don't know
that Simmons really just been under. Under

1015
01:22:59,92 --> 01:23:02,31
contract at least once there's

1016
01:23:02,32 --> 01:23:05,62
a lot of interest in that
ship it still is but there is

1017
01:23:05,81 --> 01:23:10,02
a lot of interest in that project
from builders and developers as well.

1018
01:23:13,41 --> 01:23:19,84
Mark. In the store to get. To know what

1019
01:23:20,65 --> 01:23:27,54
we should be. So it's no
way are we going. To be

1020
01:23:28,36 --> 01:23:33,47
you would be. Making sure that every.

1021
01:23:39,65 --> 01:23:45,67
Name still. So you would have

1022
01:23:45,68 --> 01:23:49,60
a connection there with the
cross. But we also I think.

1023
01:23:53,42 --> 01:23:58,28
As well for the for the road in the
strange areas in that project as well.
