WE HELD THE STRONG KIDS TRIATHLON ON SATURDAY, AUGUST 7TH AT THE KROGER AQUATIC CENTER.
WE HAD 240 KIDS RANGING FROM THE AGE OF FIVE TO 12.
IT WAS A VERY SUCCESSFUL EVENT AND WE LOOK FORWARD TO HOSTING AGAIN.
NEXT YEAR IN AUGUST, WE HAVE A TOTAL OF 477 SHELTER RENTALS THROUGH AUGUST 12TH, 2021 AUGUST IS FULL ACROSS THE PARTS SYSTEM FOR THE WEEKENDS.
OUR NEXT AVAILABLE SHELTER AT CLOUD PARK IS SEPTEMBER 12TH.
THE BOARD MAY NEED TO LOOK AT ADDING ADDITIONAL SHELTERS AS THERE IS A DEMAND FOR THE OUTSIDE SPACE.
IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS, PLEASE LET ME KNOW.
ARE THERE ANY COMMENTS? ANY QUESTIONS? OKAY.
UM, YEAH, I DON'T KNOW HOW MANY OF YOU WATCH THE MEETING? THE, UH, COUNCIL WORK SESSION TUESDAY EVENING.
UM, BUT MONDAY COUNCIL IS GOING TO VOTE ABOUT PUTTING THE PUMP TRACK AND THE PERIMETER SKILLS LOOP AT MONITA.
UM, WE'RE GONNA, UH, REMOVE THE BICYCLE PLAYGROUND FROM THAT LAYOUT ALTOGETHER BECAUSE IT DOESN'T FIT.
IT DOESN'T REALLY WORK UNLESS YOU HAVE THE TRAILS IN THE WOODS ANYWAY, UH, SINCE THAT'S WHAT IT'S THERE TO TRAIN FOR.
SO WE'LL PUT THAT THERE, WE SAVED THE BASEBALL FIELDS THAT ARE THERE AND, UH, WE DO HAVE A GROUP THAT WANTS TO, UH, SIGN A FIVE-YEAR LEASE FOR THOSE.
SO WE'LL GET THOSE FIELDS FIXED UP.
I'LL GET THAT LEASE OUT TO THEM, UH, EARLY NEXT WEEK.
AND, UH, WE'LL BE READY TO MOVE ALONG WITH THAT.
UM, I'M TRYING TO THINK, VINCE, WHAT ELSE DO WE HAVE A FARMER'S MARKET'S STILL GOING MOVIE NIGHTS AND CONCERT NIGHTS.
WE GOT, UH, FIVE CONCERTS LEFT.
WE GOT THIS WEEKEND AND THE 28TH OF AUGUST, AND THEN WE GOT THREE OF THEM IN SEPTEMBER.
UM, AND OUR, WE GOT ONE MORE MOVIE NIGHT AT THE AMPHITHEATER FOLLOWING THE, UH, MARIGOLD FESTIVAL ON SEPTEMBER 11TH.
AND THEN OUR LAST ONE WILL BE OCTOBER 16TH AT THE ROSE.
WE'RE GOING TO COMBINE THAT EVENT WITH, UH, THE CRUISE IN LIKE WE DID LAST YEAR WITH COLE BONKERS, BECAUSE THAT WAS A HUGE SUCCESS.
AND WE'RE ALSO COMBINING THAT WITH BITES IN THE HEIGHTS.
UM, WE WERE LOOKING FOR KIND OF ONE WEEKEND TO DO EVERYTHING IN AND UH, SO HOPEFULLY THEY'LL GET THE ADVERTISEMENTS FOR THAT OUT SOON.
UH, WHILE WE'RE ON YOU, CAN YOU GO AHEAD AND TALK ABOUT DIAL PARK AND THE COMMUNITY CENTER? YEAH, SO OUR SEPTEMBER MEETING IS GOING TO BE MORE OF A TOWN HALL.
UM, WE'RE GOING TO SEND OUT A SURVEY IN THE NEXT WEEK OR SO, UM, TO SEE, TO GET SOME FEEDBACK FROM THE WHOLE COMMUNITY ABOUT DIAL PARK, UH, TO SEE WHAT KIND OF THINGS WE WOULD
[00:05:01]
LIKE THERE TO SEE WHAT INFORMATION PEOPLE ALREADY HAVE, WHAT THEY UNDERSTAND ABOUT IT AND TO GET OPINIONS ON THAT, UH, WE'LL GET THAT SURVEY.HOPEFULLY HAVE MOST OF THOSE BACK BEFORE THE MEETING, WE'LL HAVE SOME COPIES HERE FOR PEOPLE WHO AREN'T ABLE TO FILL IT OUT DIGITALLY, THAT THEY CAN COME AND FILL THAT OUT ON SITE.
AND THEN WE WILL CONTINUE OUR DISCUSSION ABOUT, UH, MOVING FORWARD WITH DIAL PARK, SAME THING WITH THE COMMUNITY CENTER.
UM, I'M STILL GATHERING SOME IDEAS FROM A LANDSCAPE ARCHITECT.
WHO'S WORKING ON SOME PLAYGROUND DESIGNS.
SO ONCE WE HAVE THAT TOGETHER, WE'LL DO THE SAME THING AT THE COMMUNITY CENTER.
WE PROBABLY WON'T DO IT AS OUR REGULAR MEETING.
WE'LL DO IT ON SITE AND WE'LL HOLD THAT AS KIND OF A, KIND OF A SPECIAL MEETING THAT WE'LL DO DOWN THERE AT A LATER DATE.
SO DOES ANYBODY HAVE ANY QUESTIONS, PAJAMAS? UH, WE MOVED THE, UM, BASKETBALL COURTS TO THE TOP OF THE LIST, YOU KNOW, FOR THE NEW ITEM FOR NEXT YEAR.
DO WE HAVE A SCHEDULE WHEN WE'RE GOING TO START, TRY AND GET THE RFP OUT AND, UM, UH, I GUESS THE BOTTOM LINE IS, ARE WE GOING TO WAIT TILL NEXT SUMMER TO START THIS? ARE WE GOING TO TRY AND HAVE IT READY FOR THE KIDS? WHEN SPRING COMES? I WILL, UH, I WILL START CONTACTING COMPANIES AND SEEING WHAT PRICING IS FOR THAT.
UM, CAUSE I MAY NOT NEED AN RFP.
UH, WE MAY BE ABLE TO FIND SOMEONE WHO CAN AND WHO CAN DO A PAD FOR US AND GET EVERYTHING WITHOUT HAVING TO DO AN RFP.
UM, I WAS JUST WAITING TO GET THROUGH SOME OF THIS STUFF WITH, UH, DIAL AND MONITA.
AND ONCE WE GET THROUGH THAT, WE'LL START COLLECTING THAT INFORMATION.
HOPEFULLY WE CAN GET IT READY TO GO.
IF NOT FIRST THING IN THE SPRING, HOPEFULLY THIS FALL ME.
I WAS IN THE DESK GOING TO BE INSTALLED AT THEIR WHY WHAT'S THE APPROVAL PROCESS FOR A LOCATION ON THAT? WELL, IT'S GOING TO BE INSTALLED AT THE, PROBABLY THE OPEN AREA BEHIND THE RESTROOMS THERE AT THE AMPHITHEATER.
UM, SO IT'LL JUST BE A MATTER OF I'LL TALK WITH SCOTT AND IF HE THINKS IT NEEDS TO GO IN FRONT OF COUNCIL, WE WILL, IF NOT, THEN WE'LL JUST PICK A SPOT AND PUT IT IN.
HOW MANY COURT? SO DID WE SAY TOO, THAT WE WERE PUTTING DOWN THERE.
I GOT TO SEE WHAT WE CAN FIT IN THERE.
IT'S I KNOW FOR SURE WE CAN GET A GOOD SIZE FULL COURT WITH MAYBE A COUPLE HALF COURTS ON THE SIDE, BUT YOU KNOW, IT'D BE NICE TO HAVE TWO FULL COURTS SIDE BY SIDE.
SO WE JUST KINDA GOTTA LOOK AT IT AND SEE WHAT SPACE WE GOT OVER THERE TO PLAY WITH.
UM, THIS WAS A DIFFERENT 70 AND YOU FOUND THAT PERSON YET TO TAKE CARE OF.
I HAVE NOT, UH, I'VE BEEN TALKING WITH SOFTBALL AND WE MAY BE ABLE TO WORK OUT A DEAL WITH THEM, AT LEAST FOR THE ONES AT CLOUD.
BUT WE STILL GOT SOME OFFSITE THAT ONCE WE GET THEM REDONE, THE LEAGUE THAT'S COMING IN, WE'LL MAINTAIN THEM, BUT IT'S THROUGH THE WINTER, YOU KNOW, WHEN YOU KNOW, BALLS OUT THERE, YOU KNOW, ALL 12 MONTHS DRAGGING THEIR FIELDS JUST TO KEEP THAT CRUST FROM FORMING.
SO THAT'S WHAT I NEED IS SOMEONE WHO CAN COME OUT IN THE OFF SEASON FOR THESE LEAGUES AND STILL HIT THEM ONCE IN A WHILE TOO.
SO I THINK, I THINK HE DID A GOOD JOB.
BUT I'VE TOLD HIM THAT THERE WOULD BE OTHER DIAMONDS TAKE CARE OF AND SEEMED LIKE HE DON'T WANT TO DO THAT.
THEY, THEY SENT ME A LIST OF WHAT THEY DO ON A REGULAR WEEK TO T TO MAINTAIN FIELDS AND WE'RE GOING TO LOOK THROUGH IT AND SEE WHAT YEAH.
SO, UM, SO WERE THERE ANY QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS SPECIFICALLY REGARDING DIAL IN COMMUNITY? I WANT TO MAKE SURE YOU GUYS UNDERSTAND WHY WE'RE DOING THIS.
SO DOES EVERYONE UNDERSTAND WHY WE'RE DOING THE TOWN HALLS? OKAY, GOOD.
DO WE HAVE A SET DATE ON WHEN THE TOWN HALL MEETING IS FOR COMMUNITY? NO.
SO THE NEXT, SO THE TERM PROBLEM THAT WE'LL HAVE TO THINK IS THE MOST DOWEL PART, UM, IS 16.
AND THAT IS OUR THAT'S OUR NEXT SCHEDULED MEETING.
THE ONE, AFTER THAT FOR THE COMMUNITY CENTER WILL LIKELY BE A, UM, MORE FOR THE COMMUNITY CENTER WILL LIKELY BE A SPECIAL MEETING, WHICH MEANS YOU'LL GET AN EMAIL FROM ME TO CHECK YOUR AVAILABILITY.
UM, AND THAT WILL BE DOWN AT THE COMMUNITY CENTER.
SO WE'LL TAKE EVERYONE OUTSIDE, WE'LL SHOW THEM THE SPACE AND EVERYTHING AND THEN FIGURE OUT WHAT EXACTLY DOES THAT COMMUNITY OVER THERE.
SO DOES THAT MEAN WE, SO BY DOING THIS, WE'VE MOVED AWAY FROM PUTTING THE BIKE BACK DOWN THERE.
SO RIGHT NOW THE PLAN IS TO PUT THE, THE SKATE PARK.
I'M GOING TO GET A FEEL WITH THE BMX.
THE SKATE PARK AND BMX ARE ALREADY, ALREADY SIGNED, READY TO GO.
AND I THINK WAS THE OTHER ONE THAT SKILLS TRACK, WAS THAT STILL GOING ON, PUMP TRACK, AND THEN THE SKILLS, THE SKILLS WE'RE GOING TO HAVE TO PLAY AROUND WITH, TO FIGURE OUT HOW WE'RE GOING TO GET UP THAT HILL.
UM, BUT THEY SAID THAT'S SOMETHING THEY CAN REMEDY ON SITE WHEN THEY SHOW UP ALL OF THAT.
[00:10:01]
UPON APPROVAL FROM COUNCIL ON MONDAY.ANY QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS? OKAY, GO AHEAD AND GO ON TO NEW BUSINESS HERE.
I CAN PROGRAM AMPHITHEATER PLAYGROUND.
SO, UM, AS SOME OF Y'ALL MAYBE WHERE, UM, YOU KNOW, WE'VE BEEN LOOKING AT WAYS TO GROW THE AMPHITHEATER AREA.
SO IF YOU HAVE, IF ANY OF YOU HAVE ATTENDED ANY OF THE MUSIC EVENTS AND WILL BE EVENTS, UM, YOU WILL NOTICE THAT THE AREA OVER THERE BY THE AMPHITHEATER DOESN'T HAVE A PLAYGROUND.
AND SO, AND WE ALSO HAVE NOTICED THAT A LOT OF FAMILIES TEND TO BRING THEIR CHILDREN WITH THEM, ESPECIALLY FOR THE MUSIC EVENTS.
SO ONE OF THE THINGS WE WERE LOOKING AT IS TRYING TO FIND A WAY TO HELP ENTERTAIN THE CHILDREN RATHER THAN USING, STORING ON AND HOW LONG, YOU KNOW, PLAYING AROUND AND EVERYTHING.
SO WE WANTED TO PUT A PLAYGROUP.
ONE OF THE CONCEPTS WAS TO PUT A PLAYGROUND OUT THERE.
UM, SO WHAT'S GOING AROUND RIGHT NOW IS A R THREE OR SEVERAL PROPOSED, UM, PLAYGROUNDS THAT WE WANT YOU TO LOOK AT.
AND THEN WE'LL TALK ABOUT THEM.
AS SOON AS YOU GUYS HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY.
IF YOU'RE AT THE AMPHITHEATER AND YOU'RE, YOU'RE FACING, YOU'RE SITTING IN THE CROWD AND YOU'RE FACING, IT'LL BE OFF TO THE RIGHT-HAND SIDE.
THERE'S AN OPEN AREA, UH, BETWEEN SOME OF THE TREES THERE.
AND, UH, CAUSE VINCE AND I ARE THERE SEVERAL DAYS, A WEEK FOR EVENTS.
AND MOST OF THE TIME WE NOTICED KIDS RUNNING AROUND, DOWN IN THE DRAINAGE AREA, THROWING ROCKS AND RUN AROUND DOWN THERE, WHICH IS FINE.
BUT THEN MOST OF THE PARENTS HAVE TO STAND AT THE FENCE CAUSE YOU CAN'T SEE YOUR KIDS CAUSE THEY'RE BEHIND THE TREE.
SO THIS WAY YOU CAN SIT AND WATCH THE CONCERT, YOU CAN GLANCE OVER.
MY KIDS THEY'RE, THEY'RE GOOD.
AND GO BACK TO ENJOYING YOURSELF.
ALL OF THESE PLAYGROUNDS WERE DESIGNED AS YOU CAN'T ADD OR CHANGE ANYTHING.
WHAT THEY ARE IS WHAT THEY ARE.
THEY WERE DESIGNED TO BE COST-EFFECTIVE.
SO THE COMPANY COULD PUNCH IN A NUMBER AND IT MAKES IT SO THE COLORS ARE WHAT THEY ARE.
NOW YOU CAN ADD SEPARATE GROUND FEATURES TO IT.
BUT THE COSTS ARE ALL JUST KIND OF SET.
THIS WAS THEIR WAY DURING THE PANDEMIC OF, OKAY, WHAT'S OUR MOST COST-EFFECTIVE WAY TO PRODUCE PLAYGROUNDS THAT ARE STILL HIGH QUALITY OF EVERYTHING ELSE WE HAVE.
BUT TO WHERE WE KNOW EXACTLY WHAT IT'S GOING TO COST, SO WE CAN GIVE YOU A HUNDRED PERCENT UPFRONT.
SO THAT'S WHAT THESE DESIGNS ARE.
THEY GAVE ME A SHEET SAID, PICK A FEW OFF OF HERE.
AND, UM, THIS IS WHAT WE FOUND THAT WOULD FIT.
IF YOU LOOK ON THE SHEET, WHEN YOU SEE THEM, IT GIVES THE PRICE OF THE, OF THE EQUIPMENT WITH SHIPPING, AND THEN IT GIVES YOU THE PRICE OF THE EWF, WHICH IS THE ENGINEERED WOOD FIBER.
ALL OF THIS ONE WILL BE ALL ASTROTURF.
UH, SO THAT WAY IT'S PUT IT DOWN.
YOU DON'T HAVE TO DO ANYTHING FOR 25 YEARS, LIKE MOW AROUND IT AND IT'S THERE AND IT'S DONE AND WE DON'T HAVE TO DO MUCH WITH IT.
SO, SO, UM, BUT ALSO, AND I'LL BE ALSO REMEMBERED THAT WE CAN ALWAYS ADD LATER ON TO THE PLAYGROUNDS.
ONE OF THE THINGS THAT WE'VE ALWAYS SAID WAS WE WANTED TO MAKE SURE THAT THE PLAYGROUNDS WERE ACCESSIBLE AND INCLUSIVE.
SO THOSE ARE THINGS THAT WE'LL BE LOOKING AT IN THE FUTURE AS WELL, ESPECIALLY FOR ALL OF OUR PLAYGROUNDS, ESPECIALLY AS THE NEW ONES GO WEARING.
SO, UM, SO THOSE ARE THE THINGS WE WILL NEED TO START LOOKING AT.
UM, AND I THINK LANCE, IS IT LANDSCAPE CHAPTERS? YEAH.
THAT'S WHO GAVE ME THESE DESIGNS.
SO IF YOU GO ONTO THEIR WEBSITE, THEY HAVE SEVERAL EXAMPLES OF SOME OF THAT.
AND THEN I WOULD RECOMMEND LOOKING AT SOME, UM, SOME VIDEOS, SENSORY, SENSORY, AND I THINK IT'S AUDIBLE OR AN AUDIBLE, UM, TYPE OF, UM, INFRASTRUCTURE, INFRASTRUCTURES, OR PLAYGROUND EQUIPMENT TO GIVE YOU SOME IDEAS AS WELL.
UM, SO SINCE THIS IS GOING TO BE A NEW INSTALL, IS THIS SOMETHING THAT WE COULD LOOK AT, MAYBE PUTTING THE WHEELCHAIR SWINGING AT THIS, ONE'S NOT GONNA HAVE ANY SWINGS.
SO THIS ONE WILL HAVE, IT'LL BE A CLIMBING STRUCTURE.
IT WILL HAVE AN ACCESSIBLE PLATFORM WITH A SMALL SLIDE.
AND THEN WE CAN ADD A FEW GROUND PANELS FOR THAT.
THIS ONE'S JUST GOING TO BE VERY SIMPLE.
UM, BUT THE WHEELCHAIR SWING, I'VE GOT THE PRICING AND EVERYTHING FOR IT.
SO WHEN IT COMES TO EITHER DIAL PARK OR, UH, THE COMMUNITY CENTER, IT WILL BE AT ONE OF THOSE, FOR SURE, WHEREVER WE DECIDE IT'S GOING IN THOSE PLACES, IT WILL BE DESIGNED THERE FOR SURE.
UH, BECAUSE WE KNOW NOW THAT THAT THEY HAVE THE ONE ON THE MARKET THAT IS SAFE FOR PUBLIC USE, UM, THEN, UH, WE KNOW EXACTLY WHAT IT'S GOING TO BE, HOW MUCH SPACE IS GOING TO TAKE UP AND WE CAN PRETTY MUCH PUT IT ANYWHERE WITH NEW INSTALLATION.
I LIKE, I KNOW, I'LL TELL YA, JUST SO EVERYBODY DOWN THERE, THIS IS, THIS IS THE ONE I'M LOOKING AT.
AS OF NOW, IT'S THE MOST BANG FOR THE BUCK.
UM, THERE'S ANOTHER PIECE THAT COMES OFF THE OTHER SIDE THAT YOU CAN'T REALLY SEE, BUT, UM,
[00:15:02]
THAT WILL, UH, YOU KNOW, WE'LL KIND OF GET EVERYBODY TO LOOK THROUGH THEM.WE'LL GET EVERYBODY LOOKED THROUGH THEM AND WE'LL PICK A FEW AND WE CAN DISCUSS THEM AND I CAN SEE IF I CAN GET BETTER, UM, DRAWINGS OF THEM AS WELL.
SO WE CAN SEE ALL AROUND THEM SLIDE.
MATT, DO YOU HAVE ANY COMMENTS ON THAT? NO, I LIKE THE ONE.
I DID LIKE THE ONE WITH THE INTERNAL SPINE AT THAT WAS A VERY UNIQUE STRUCTURE.
IT'S NOT ONE YOU TYPICALLY SEE.
SO I THINK THAT WOULD BE INTERESTING, ESPECIALLY IN A FOCAL POINT, LIKE THE AMPHITHEATER WHERE WE'RE GETTING PEOPLE FROM OUTSIDE THE COMMUNITY AND INSIDE THE COMMUNITY THERE.
WELL HOPEFULLY HAVING SOMETHING THERE FOR THE KIDS TO DO, THEY'LL STAY OFF THE ROOF AND QUIT TEARING THE RUBBER OFF THE AMPHITHEATER.
BELIEVE IT OR NOT, THOSE TRUCKERS DO DROP PEOPLE.
UM, I DON'T KNOW IF YOU'VE EVER BEEN TO GOLDEN GATE PARK AND BROOKFIELD AND BROOKFIELD.
UM, I DON'T KNOW IF I HAVE IT'S THEY ACTUALLY HAVE A MINIATURE OR WEST CITY ELISA AND IT'S, I MEAN, IT'S A FAIRLY LARGE.
BUT IT'S VERY PEOPLE COME FROM OUTSIDE THE AREA JUST TO SEE THERE USED TO BE ONE IN FAIR ONE THAT WAS SIMILAR.
UH, THEY TORE OUT YEARS AGO, BUT THIS ONE STOPS TWO TENANTS.
SO IT DOES DRAW A GOOD SETUP, DOES DRAW AND THERE IS A PLAYGROUND BEHIND THE Y YMCA, BUT IT IS NOT VISIBLE AND IT'S REALLY NOT ACCESSIBLE FROM THE AMPHITHEATER BECAUSE THAT WAS THE FIRST THING CRYSTAL DOES.
HE'S LIKE, WE'VE GOT ONE RIGHT HERE.
BUT IT WAS THE ONE AT THE Y USED MAINLY FOR THE DAYCARE, I THINK TOO.
THAT'S WHY IT'S LOCATED CLOSE TO THE BUILDING.
AND WITH THEIR SUMMER PROGRAM, A LOT OF TIMES THE SUMMER PROGRAM KIDS ARE AT THE AMPHITHEATER AS WELL.
AND SO THEY'RE JUST KINDA SITTING THERE ALL DAY LONG.
SO I GIVE THEM SOMETHING TO DO OVER THERE TOO.
AND THE TERM WILL BE THE SAME THING THAT WE'VE PUT DOWN AT, UM, MIAMI VILLA AND AT BELL PLAINE TO MAKE THOSE ACCESSIBLE OR NOT MINE, UTILA SORRY.
THAT'S GOT THE POOR IN PLACE, BUT AT BELL PLAYING TO MAKE THE ACCESSIBLE PATH.
UH, BUT IT'LL BE, THE WHOLE THING WILL BE THAT IT WON'T JUST BE A PATH TO A SPECIFIC PART.
IT WILL BE THE WHOLE, YOU KNOW, THE WHOLE, UH, FOOTPRINT OF IT WILL BE THAT ASTROTURF.
HOW WELL IS THE BOAT PLANE BEING RECEIVED RIGHT NOW? I MEAN THE PLAYGROUND, HOW'S IT BEING RECEIVED AS FAR AS BEING USED? YEAH.
THERE'S A FEW PEOPLE OVER THERE EVERYDAY.
I MEAN, THE SUMMERTIME, I DON'T KNOW ABOUT ONCE SCHOOL STARTS, I DON'T KNOW HOW MANY KIDS IN THAT AREA ARE, ARE NOT IN SCHOOL OR HOMESCHOOL, BUT I MEAN, IT'S, THERE'S, THERE'S PEOPLE OVER THERE.
I'VE BEEN TO BELLE PLAINE, UH, LIKE THREE TIMES AT ONE TIME, IT WAS ONLY LIKE A COUPLE OF PEOPLE, BUT THE TWO, LIKE TWO SATURDAYS, I WAS THERE AND THERE WAS, UH, LIKE A DOZEN, SOME PEOPLE AND IT WASN'T ANOTHER ONE.
I KNOW, ONE TIME I WENT THERE AND IT WAS PEOPLE USING THE PARKING LOT FOR THAT, HAVING A BARBECUE ACROSS THE STREET, SO.
ANY COMMENTS? I THINK THE ONE THAT'S ON THE BOTTOM RIGHT-HAND CORNER WITH THE GREEN SET UP ON THE TOP PAGE.
AS FAR AS GETTING THE MOST FOR YOUR MONEY.
AND THE ONE ABOVE, IT WAS MY NUMBER TWO.
AND THEN WHAT JOSH LIKE WAS MY NUMBER THREE.
THE ONLY REASON WHY, AND AS, UH, AS A PARENT, UH, YOU KNOW, YOUNG KIDS AND ALL THAT, UH, WITH THE BUNGEE UP, JUST ME, JUST WITH THE BUNGEE AND THE ROPE STUFF, IT ALWAYS SEEMS TO ME MENTALLY, THAT'S PROBABLY MORE DANGEROUS IN A STURDY, WELL, THESE AREN'T BUNGEE AND ROPE ANYMORE.
THEY'RE UH, THEY'RE LIKE COATED CABLE THERE.
WELL, I'M JUST SAYING THOUGH, LIKE A STURDY, STABLE, YOU KNOW, PLATFORM WHILE AT THE CONTRARY, YOU KNOW, YOU'RE FOCUSING ON BOTH THINGS.
NOW, IF I HAD ANOTHER PARK WHERE YOU COULD PRETTY MUCH FOCUS ON YOUR KIDS, WATCH THEM.
THAT'S THE ONLY, THAT'S MY ONLY, ONLY REASON WHY I PICKED THOSE OTHER TWO ABOVE YOURS.
[00:20:01]
WE'LL SEND THIS OUT IN AN EMAIL TOO, AND YOU GUYS CAN KIND OF SEND BACK YOUR, UH, YOUR BOATS AND STUFF AND WE'LL NARROW IT DOWN TO THREE AND WE'LL GO FROM THERE AND I'LL GET THE FOOTPRINT TO, TO SEE WHAT KIND OF SPACE EACH OF THEM TAKES UP.SO WE KNOW WHAT WILL FIT OVER THERE.
CAUSE WE, I MEAN, OBVIOUSLY WE DON'T, WE'RE NOT TAKING ANY TREES, ELVIS, IT JUST KIND OF PLOPPED DOWN IN THE OPEN GRASS AREA.
ARE WE PUTTING ANY TYPE OF FENCING AROUND THAT OR NO, NOW WE'LL JUST, WE'LL JUST CONNECT A WALK PATH FROM THE SIDEWALK TO IT AND THAT'LL BE IT.
SO WHAT WE'LL DO IS, UM, JOSHUA SENT IT TO ME.
THAT'LL BE THE FIRST AGENDA ITEM DURING OUR MEETING ON THE SIX ON THE 16TH.
AND THEN AFTER THAT, WE'LL FOCUS ON THE TOWN HALL.
THE ITEM IS THE MAINTENANCE LIST REVIEW.
SO I HAVE MAJORITY OF EVERYONE'S INPUT AND WHAT YOU AND I PROVIDED IT TO EVERYONE, UM, TODAY.
UM, SO WHAT I DID WAS, UM, DO YOU USE THE SAME FORMULA THAT I USE FOR THE PRIOR LIST? OKAY.
SO WE DID THE ONE THROUGH THREE AND THEN, UH, EFFORT AND TIME ONCE WE FIRST.
SO, UM, AT THE TOP HERE WITH THE LOWEST SCORE IS THE ONE WITH THE, I'D SAY THE HIGHEST RANKING, LET'S SAY.
SO, UM, RIGHT NOW, ACCORDING TO THE LIST, UM, WE HAVE ABOUT 58 ITEMS ON THE LIST.
SO THIS ENTIRE LIST IS WHAT I WOULD SUGGEST PROVIDING TO JOSH AND TO CITY COUNCIL JUST TO HALL.
UM, AND THEN WE CAN START TO WORK DOWN, SORRY, LET ME START TO WORK DOWN THE LIST FROM THERE THROUGHOUT THE YEAR.
UM, I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND DOING A TOP 10 UNLESS YOU ALL WANTED TO, BUT, UM, BECAUSE OF THE MAINTENANCE AND THIS LIST, AS THE OTHER LIST WILL CONTINUE TO GROW AS WE CONTINUE TO MOVE THROUGH THE YEAR OR THROUGH THE YEARS.
UM, SO JUST FOR THE RECORD, I'LL JUST GO DOWN AND JUST IDENTIFY THE TOP, THE TOP 10 HERE.
UM, SO FOR MAINTENANCE AT THOMAS CLOUD, WE HAVE, UM, TO REPLACE THE BOARDS ON THE WOODEN BRIDGE, COTTONWOOD FIX AND REPLACE THE BENCHES THAT FILLED FIVE COMMUNITY, NEW NUTS ON THE BASKETBALL HOOPS, WHICH I KNOW WE'VE BEEN ALREADY LOOKING AT THAT FOR ALL THE BASKETBALL COURT, THEY ALREADY BOUGHT THE RIM.
SO THEY SHOULDN'T GET PUT UP SOON AND ALL THAT BE DONE.
PROTECT MARK NEXT TO THAT ONE.
MANITA FIELD, UH, PAINT LINES IN THE PARKING LOT.
I BELIEVE THAT ENTIRE PARKING LOT IS GOING TO GET REDONE.
AND MAYBE ADDED TO, I'M NOT SURE YET.
THAT'LL BE PART OF THE WHOLE PROJECT THAT'S GOING ON NOW.
I REPLACED THE METS AT THE BUS PLACE, THE NETS ON THE BASKETBALL HOOPS SHOW GATE, UH, THE, UH, LET'S SEE THE BASEBALL BENCHES ARE UNSAVED.
SO IT'S RECOMMENDED TO REPLACE THEM, WHICH BENCHES, THE ONES THE PLAYERS SIT ON OR THE BLEACHERS.
I THINK IT WAS THE BLEACHERS, THE BLEACHER METAL BLEACHERS THEY'RE GETTING REMOVED.
THEY'RE GETTING, WE'RE GOING TO REPAIR THEM AND MOVE THEM TO THE TENNIS COURTS IN CLOUD.
UH, SHELL GATE PAINT, PARKING LINES IN THE PARKING LOT ON THE SHELL GATE.
IS THERE A WAY I KNOW WE, EVERYBODY PARKS AROUND, IS THERE A WAY TO PUT LINES IN THE CENTER THERE TOO? YEAH.
I'D HAVE TO GET WITH RUSS AND SCOTT AND SEE DIMENSION WISE, WHAT NEEDS TO BE PUT IN THERE, BUT WE CAN SOME NIGHTS WHERE YOU CAN PARK.
AND, AND REALLY SOMETIMES PEOPLE DO, BUT THEN PEOPLE DON'T SEE THE LINES AND THEY KIND OF GET NERVOUS, BUT YEAH, THAT'S UM, THAT'S SOMETHING WE CAN LOOK AT DOING, CAUSE WE'LL PROBABLY ADD YOU PROBABLY ADD 12 TO 16 SPACES DOWN THAT CENTER AISLE.
SO COMMUNITY, UH, PAINT, PARKING SPOTS.
SO BASICALLY PUT SOME LINES IN.
CAN I CONNECT ALONG? UM, I KNOW THIS IS THE ONE THAT I PUT ON HERE.
UM, THERE'S A LOT OF GRAFFITI ON THE LOCK.
IS THERE A WAY, IS THERE A WAY FOR US TO LOOK AND SEE IF WE CAN REMOVE THAT FROM THE STONE? WE'RE LOOKING FOR A PRODUCT NOW BECAUSE UH, ENGINEERING HAD AN ISSUE ON ONE OF THEIR BRAND NEW PUMP STATION BUILDINGS IT'S ON BRICK AND EVERYTHING THAT WE HAVE.
WON'T TAKE IT OFF A POOREST MATERIAL.
SO WE'RE TRYING TO FIND, UH, SOMETHING WE CAN USE THAT WILL WITHOUT JUST HAVING TO PAINT OVER IT.
IT'S ON THE WALLS OF THE LOCK IS THE WALL, THEIR BLOCK.
YOU CAN USE CERTAIN PRESSURE WORKERS.
WE TRIED, BUT OURS STARTED TAKING MORTAR OUT.
SO WE HAD TOO MUCH, WE WERE TOLD THERE WAS SOMETHING METRO PARKS USED TO USE.
THE GUYS CALLED IT ELEPHANT SNACK.
[00:25:01]
I DON'T KNOW WHAT IT WAS ACTUALLY CALLED, BUT UM, I NEED TO GET A HOLD OF DOUG.I NEED TO GET AHOLD OF DOUG OVER THERE AND FIND OUT WHAT THAT STUFF WAS CALLED.
THEY SAID IT WORKS GOOD ON, ON CONCRETE AND STUFF AND ANY POROUS MATERIAL.
IT'LL TAKE IT OUT OF, SO, YEAH.
UM, THEN THE LAST ONE I'LL TALK ABOUT REALLY QUICK IS MANY OF THE FIELDS, UH, THE PAINT, THE SIGN AT THE ENTRANCE, BUT I THINK THAT'S ACTUALLY GOING TO GET REPLACED.
WE MIGHT BE ABLE TO IT'S DONE.
AND THAT SIGN IS GOING TO LOOK SIMILAR TO, OR HAVE A SIMILAR FEEL TO THE ONE THAT WE DID AT FLIER FIELD AT KITTY HAWK.
ANY QUESTIONS ON THIS? A TIGHTER LIST.
OH, THE COMMUNITY, WHEN YOU PAVE THE DRIVEWAY, WHAT EXACTLY ARE WE TALKING ABOUT? BECAUSE I KNOW THEY JUST DID THE BLACKTOP, BUT TWO YEARS AGO THEY DID PART OF IT.
I KNOW IT'S NOT A DAY WHEN YOU CAME DOWN, WHAT YOU PASSWORD, THE LITTLE GAZEBO IS.
WE'RE TALKING ABOUT THE FRONT HALF MAYBE.
WE REALLY EVENTUALLY NEED TO JUST GO ALONG THAT WHOLE EDGE AND JUST PRETTY MUCH TO THE GAZEBO MAKE, PULL IN PARKING AND EVEN AROUND THE BACKSIDE.
AS LONG AS WE CAN, I DON'T KNOW THAT FOOTBALL, THEY SHOULD DO SOMETHING IN THEIR TWO SPOTS BECAUSE PEOPLE JUST GO ON THE GRASS.
WELL, AND WE'VE HAD, WE'VE HAD TO REPLACE THE ONE, UM, T BOX FOR THE, UH, DISC GOLF TWICE BECAUSE THEY PARK ON TOP OF IT.
ANY QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS AGAIN? THIS ENTIRE LIST I'LL GO PROVIDE THE, UM, COUNSEL WILL PROVIDE TO JOSH AS WELL.
SO HE'LL HAVE IT AND IT WON'T BE A LIVING LIST.
SO, UM, AND I WILL SEND THIS OUT TO EVERYONE DIGITALLY AS WELL.
AND IT'S A, UH, IT'S ALL DUCTED.
UM, SO THIS IS THE PART WHERE WE TALK ABOUT POTENTIAL PROGRAMS FOR THIS YEAR.
SO WHAT I'LL DO IS I'LL START WITH SYDNEY.
SO WE WERE TALKING ABOUT HAVING A PET COSTUME PARADE, UM, NOT JUST FOR CATS AND DOGS.
HOPEFULLY WE SEE LIZARDS BIRDS.
UM, OF COURSE IT'S GOING TO BE AT THE KITTY HAWK, MENLO DOG PARK.
WE WERE THINKING ABOUT 5:00 PM, FRIDAY THE 29TH.
I'M NOT SURE IF WE WERE DOING SOMETHING ON THE 30TH.
UM, THEY, I'M NOT SURE WHEN TRICK OR TREAT WILL BE, I DON'T KNOW IF THEY'LL DO IT ON THURSDAY OR SATURDAY THE 30TH, OR IF THEY'LL DO IT ON SUNDAY THE 31ST, BUT I WOULD SAY DON'T DO IT THE SAME DAY AS THAT.
BECAUSE I THINK IT WAS THE MARATHON, THE 5K, UM, THE MARATHON IS ON THE SAME DAY AS THE FARMER'S MARKETS AND SATURDAY, SO THAT'S THE 30TH.
SO I DIDN'T KNOW IF YOU WANTED IT CLOSER TO THEN OUR 29TH WORKS AND THEN I WAS THINKING WE SHOULD, UH, I WAS OPEN TO SUGGESTIONS FOR THE FIRST, SECOND AND THIRD PLACE WINNERS.
UM, MY SUGGESTIONS WERE PETS STORE, GIFT CARDS TO PETSMART, UM, THOSE PET PLACES, PET GROOMING GIFT CARDS.
I'M NOT SURE WHAT OTHER PET OWNERS GET FOR THEIR LIZARDS, SNAKES, EVERYTHING.
SO, UM, I'M NOT EVEN A PET OWNER, SO I WASN'T SURE WHAT GIFTS WE SHOULD BE LOOKING AT.
THEY SAW A WIDE RANGE OF PRODUCTS AND EVENTS.
WE CAN SPEAK WITH SIX, A TWO AT THE FARMER'S MARKET.
CAUSE THEY'VE GOT THEIR MOBILE, UM, TRAILER.
THEY CAN, OR MOBILE TRUCK, THEY CAN BRING OUT, THAT'LL HAVE ALL SORTS OF GOODIES AND STUFF IN IT TOO THAT DIDN'T HAVE THEM COME SET THAT UP.
UM, AND THAT'S ALL I HAD SO FAR.
SO HAVE ANY QUESTIONS FOR SYDNEY? SO OF COURSE CINDY HAS VOLUNTEERED TO TAKE THE LEAD ON IT, BUT SHE'S GOING TO NEED ALL OF OUR ASSISTANCE ON IT.
UM, ESPECIALLY TO GO AROUND AND TRYING TO SEE WHAT KIND OF GIFT CARDS WE CAN GET, UM, AND SPREAD THE WORD THAT THEY'RE GOING TO DO THIS.
SO WHAT I'LL ASK IS, UM, START DESIGNING A FLYER, UH, PUT THE SOONER WE GET THE WORD OUT THE BETTER, UM, WE'LL WORK WITH JOSH AND SARAH, UM, FOR ADVERTISING AS WELL.
AND THE CITIES WILL VERIFY THAT THERE'S NOTHING BIG GOING ON THAT FRIDAY.
UM, ESPECIALLY WITH THE MUSIC AND ALL THAT.
SO, SO MUCH GOING IN THE CITY ANYMORE RIGHT NOW.
SO THAT'D BE A COOL THING TO DO WITH, UM, UH, PETS.
UM, ANY, EVEN IF WE HAVE TO, WE CAN PROBABLY MAYBE CONSIDER DOING SOMETHING ON THE 30TH, ON THE 30TH UP HERE, OR WOULD IT BE TOO MUCH? I MEAN, UP HERE, UP HERE, UM, AT THE
[00:30:01]
AMPHITHEATER AS A BACKUP, IT'S A PRETTY FLUID THING.SO I MEAN, WE CAN, YOU KNOW, JUST REALLY ADVERTISE WHERE IT'S GOING TO BE.
SO IF YOU NEED HELP, LET US KNOW.
I KNOW WE HAVE AT LEAST ONE MEMBER FROM THE COMMUNITY THAT VOLUNTEERED TO HELP, SO I'LL GET YOU THEIR CONTACT INFORMATION.
UM, AND THEN, UH, WE'LL NEED EVERYONE ELSE'S ASSISTANCE AS WELL JUST TO COME OUT AND HELP JUDGE.
SO, UM, WE NEED A COUPLE OF JUDGES ON THAT, UM, TO HELP LINE EVERYONE UP AND ALL THAT.
SO, UM, CINEO UM, IF YOU COULD JUST COME UP WITH THE ROE, UM, MILITARY TERM, UM, RULES OF ENGAGEMENT, AND THEN, UM, WE WILL, UM, WE, YOU CAN SEND THAT OUT TO EVERYONE ON THE BOARD.
THAT'S A DRAFT AND THEN LET US KNOW HOW YOU THINK THE WHOLE PROCESS IS GOING.
ANY MORE, ANY QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS FOR SYDNEY? OKAY.
UH, SO ARE THERE ANY IDEAS OR ANYTHING ELSE FOR PROGRAMMING FOR, FOR THE FALL? OKAY.
SO WHAT I WILL DO IS I WILL ASK THAT YOU ALL START THINKING ABOUT, UM, SPRING SUMMER, NEXT YEAR.
WHAT I'D LIKE TO DO IN OCTOBER IS TO START TO COME UP WITH THE LIST OF PROGRAMMING THAT WE CAN COME UP WITH SOME QUOTES THAT WE NEED PRIZES, OR IF WE NEED TO BUY THINGS THAT WE CAN START WORKING THAT IN OCTOBER AND NOVEMBER.
I KNOW THAT MATT, YOU HAVE, YOU HAVE, YOU HAVE THOSE IDEAS, WE HAVE THE BASKETBALL.
SO THE BASKETBALL, UH, AND STUFF.
AND, UM, I WOULD EVEN CONSIDER, UM, IS THERE, WHO DO WE TALK TO ABOUT THE POTENTIAL OF GETTING, UM, PASSES FOR NEXT YEAR FOR THE AQUATIC CENTER FOR PRIZES? UM, I MEAN, I CAN TALK TO SCOTT.
IT'S KIND OF SOMETHING THAT WE HAVE TO PASS OUT.
SO WE JUST KIND OF TELL THE Y HEY, WE'RE GIVING OUT THIS MANY.
AND THAT COULD BE AN OPTION FOR PRIZES AS WELL FOR THE FUTURE AS WELL.
SO, UM, ANY MORE IDEAS FOR PROGRAMMING FOR THE PHONE FOR NEXT YEAR? UM, SO, SO IN OCTOBER, UM, DURING THAT MEETING, THAT'S, WHEN WE'LL START TALKING ABOUT PROGRAMMING FOR THE SPRING AND SUMMER, I WOULD LOVE TO BRING BACK, UM, PAINTING THE PARK, OR I THINK IT WAS PAINTING APART, UM, AND THE ROCK PAIN AS WELL.
UM, I WOULD LOVE TO BRING IT BACK THIS YEAR, BUT WITH THE VARIANT INCREASING, UM, I DON'T THINK THAT'S A GOOD IDEA FOR US TO DO, UNLESS WE CAN FIND A SPOT WHERE WE COULD SPREAD A BUNCH OF PEOPLE OUT A COMMUNITY CENTER.
IF YOU LIMIT THE NUMBER, WE CAN DO IT INSIDE OF THE COMMUNITY CENTER.
SO MAYBE, OKAY, SO MAYBE IT WON'T BE CAN TARGET SOMETHING FOR OCTOBER, NOVEMBER.
SO, UM, DOES ANYONE WANT TO TAKE ON THE PAINT AND SIMPLE, THE ROCK CLEANING ON THE PHONE? NO EASY ONE.
AND THEN, UM, I WORK WITH JOSH TO SCHEDULE A DATE FOR UP TO FOUR OCTOBER, NOVEMBER FOR THAT.
AND THEN WE'LL GET THE WORD OUT ON THAT.
THAT ONE WAS A REALLY A BIG WAY IN THE FORUM FOR A LOT OF THE KIDS AS WELL.
BEFORE WE MOVE ON TO THE IMPROVAL, UM, AS FAR AS APPROACHING, UH, NEXT MEETING, I WILL MAKE SURE THAT I HAVE COPIES OF OUR SPONSORSHIP PACKET THAT WE USE FOR EVERYONE.
UM, A LOT OF BUSINESSES THIS YEAR IS I STOPPED IN THE PAST THOSE OUTSET MAN, IF YOU'D HAVE HIT US UP OCTOBER, NOVEMBER, YOU KNOW, WE HAD SOMETHING FOR YOU.
SO, UM, FALL SEEMS TO BE THE TIME WHEN PEOPLE ARE TRYING TO GET THOSE LAST MINUTE CONTRIBUTIONS OUT.
UM, SO IT MIGHT BE THE TIME TO START COLLECTING THAT STUFF FOR, UH, 20, 20 TWOS PROGRAMS FOR MUSIC, FOR MOVIE, FOR REALLY ANYTHING WE WANT TO DO.
UM, JERRY TALKED TO THE A AND B BOARD THE OTHER NIGHT AND TOLD THEM THE SAME THING.
SO SEPTEMBER'S MEETING, I'LL HAVE COPIES OF THOSE FOR EVERYONE.
UM, AND, AND IT'S THE, THE IS PRETTY SIMPLE.
YOU, YOU KNOW, YOU JUST HAND IT TO THEM AND MAKE COPIES IF YOU NEED IT.
AND IF YOU NEED MORE, LET ME KNOW.
AND HOW WERE THE PACKAGES GOING TO BE? UM, HOW ARE THEY GOING TO LOOK THIS YEAR? ARE THEY GOING TO BE VERY SPECIFIC TO THE BOARDS OR ARE THEY GOING TO GO INTO ONE BIG POT? THEY, THEY DIDN'T GO INTO ONE BIG POT.
UM, WE USUALLY PUT THEM TOWARDS THE MUSIC AND MOVIE EVENTS.
IF WE KNOW THAT WE HAVE SOMETHING SPECIFIC WE WANT TO DO, WE CAN DO ONE SPECIFICALLY FOR THAT.
UH, BUT GENERALLY, UH, THOSE COME IN AND, YOU KNOW, JERRY AND I I'LL JUST ALTERNATE THEM.
I THINK THIS YEAR WE HAD SOMEBODY GAVE $2,000, BUT THEY DID IT AT FOUR OR $500 CHECKS.
SO ONE WENT TO MUSIC, ONE WENT TO A MOVIE, ONE, ONE TO MUSIC, ONE WENT TO A MOVIE.
SO, BUT I MEAN, IDEALLY THEY GO IN THE SAME POT.
AND HOW MUCH YOU RECEIVED THIS YEAR? DO NOT.
SO ANY QUESTIONS FOR JOSH ON THAT TOPIC? ALL RIGHT.
SO GO AHEAD AND MOVE ON TO, UH, THE ADDITIONAL BUSINESS
[00:35:01]
AND ANNOUNCEMENTS.DOES ANYONE HAVE ANYTHING? NOPE.
SO, UM, ON NEXT DOOR, I DID RECEIVE A COMMENT FROM ONE OF OUR RESIDENTS HERE, AN IDEA OR TWO, UM, ONE OF THE IDEAS WAS, UM, LET'S SEE, SHE WANTED TO LOOK TO SEE IF THE CITY WOULD PERMIT PONY RIDES IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD PARKS DURING THE WEEKENDS, IN THE FALL AND IN SPRING.
UM, SHE STATED THAT SHE, I GUESS IN THE PAST, UM, ST PETER'S CATHOLIC HAD A VENDOR THAT WOULD COME OUT DURING FESTIVAL AND IT WAS VERY POPULAR, BUT SHE DOESN'T KNOW OF ANY OF THE PARKS THAT DO THAT.
I THINK CARRIAGE HILLS DOES SOMETHING LIKE THAT.
SO THAT'S RIGHT DOWN THE ROAD, BUT THAT'S SOMETHING ALSO THAT WE CAN, I DON'T KNOW IF THIS, I WILL HAVE TO BOOK THROUGH THE STATUES HERE, BUT CITY WON'T PERMIT SOMETHING LIKE THAT, BUT WHAT DO WE TIE IT TO THE TREES SO THEY CAN'T GET AWAY.
I KNOW THAT FOR ONE EVENT OR SOMETHING.
UM, AND THEN SHE ALSO MENTIONED WHICH IT'S ON OUR PRIORITY LIST AS WELL.
UM, ACTION FIT EQUIPMENT, YOU KNOW, POTENTIAL ADDING SOME OF THAT TO FEW OF THE PARTS.
AND THAT'S ALREADY ON, UM, SOME OF OUR LISTS, THOMAS CALLED PARK HAS SOMETHING LIKE IT, BUT WE KNOW THAT THAT'S FAIRLY OLD, SO IT NEEDS TO GET REPLACED AS WELL.
SO THAT'S ON THE LIST AS WELL.
UH, AND THEN THE OTHER ONE SHE HAD MENTIONED DEALT WITH RIPRAP ROAD.
UM, SHE LIKED SEEING HIM, YOU KNOW, THE RIVER AND EVERYTHING OUT THERE, BUT I NEED TO TELL HER THAT THE LANDSCAPING IS GOING TO CHANGE.
UM, BECAUSE SHE, SHE WON'T BE ABLE TO SEE THE LANDSCAPING ONCE THE PRAIRIE GRASS.
UM, WELL, THE RIVER AS SO MUCH, ONCE THAT GRASS STARTS TO GROW, IT GETS TO A CERTAIN HEIGHT.
SO I'LL SIMPLY, SO I'LL LET HER KNOW THAT THE LANDSCAPING WILL SHIFT A LITTLE BIT IN THE FIELD AND THAT'S ALL THAT I HAVE ON THAT SUBJECT.
ANY QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS, AND WHILE VINCE IS TALKING ABOUT THAT, UM, ALL OF THAT POLLINATOR STUFF SHOULD BE PUT IN IN DECEMBER.
UM, I TALKED TO THE LADY THE OTHER DAY THAT I WAS WORKING WITH ON THAT PROJECT, AND SHE'S GOT IT ON HER CALENDAR.
UM, THEY'VE GOT A GENTLEMEN, THAT'LL COME WITH A TRACTOR AND KIND OF PLUG SEAT IT AND GET ALL THAT PUT IN.
SO, YOU KNOW, WE'LL SEE WHAT SPRING LOOKS LIKE NEXT YEAR.
WELL, NEXT YEAR WILL BE KIND OF THE, DON'T LOOK AT IT.
AND, UH, AFTER THAT, IT SHOULD BE ESTABLISHED AND BE A LOT NICER THERE.
AND DON'T FORGET, JOSH IS ALSO PUTTING SOME OF THAT IN SOME OF OUR OTHER PARTS AS WELL, WHICH IS CLOUD JUST CLOUD FINGERPRINT.
SO, UM, AND HAS EVERYONE HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO REVIEW THE MINUTES EXCEPT FOR THE WAY? OKAY.
SO WHAT I WILL DO IS SINCE GLENN, YOU HAVEN'T HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO REVIEW OUT, DO A DROP-OFF PACKET FOR YOU THIS MONTH.
UM, YOUR HOUSE, THAT'S WHY YOU HAVE CONSTRUCTION, RIGHT? OKAY.
SO WE'LL, WE'LL CONNECT SO I CAN DROP OFF A PACKAGE SO WE CAN HAND OFF THAT PACKAGE.
UM, AND THEN NEXT MONTH, WE'LL GO AHEAD AND VOTE ON THE MINUTES.
SORRY, OUR NEXT MEETING AGAIN, IT'S SEPTEMBER 16TH, 2021 AT 6:30 PM.
AGAIN, THAT WILL BE A DOUBLE FOCUS ON, UM, THAT WILL BE A TOWN HALL FOR A DOLL PARK.
AND THEN FEW WEEKS LATER WE'LL DO ANOTHER ONE.
AND WE ALSO DO A SURVEY AS WELL, AS SOON AS WE GET THE SURVEY QUESTIONS DONE OR THE DRAFT OUT, UM, I'LL SEND THEM TO YOU ALL.
SO YOU ALL ARE AWARE ABOUT THOSE AND WHAT WE'RE ASKING.
UM, BECAUSE I THINK IT'S A POINT THAT THAT'D HEAR FROM THE ENTIRE COMMUNITY SPECIFICALLY IN EACH OF THOSE AREAS AS WELL.
SO THE SURVEY GOING TO BE POSTED ON, IS IT GOING TO BE THE HUBER HEIGHTS WEBSITE OR NEXT DOOR? UM, WE'LL HAVE IT ON OUR WEBSITE, BUT IT'LL HAVE A LINK WHERE THEY CAN PUT IT ON NEXT DOOR.
UM, WE'LL PROBABLY CREATE A QR CODE THAT WE CAN HAVE WITH THE FARMER'S MARKET AND OTHER EVENTS AS WELL.
UM, YEAH, WE'LL MAKE SURE THAT IT GETS OUT THERE AND THEN WE'LL HAVE PAPER COPIES HERE FOR PEOPLE TO PICK UP ALSO.
UM, CAUSE I KNOW NOT EVERYBODY CAN DO IT ONLINE.
SO WITH THAT SURVEY, UM, I'LL TAKE IT AND PUT IT ON NEXT DOOR, UH, AND DO THAT.
AND THEN JOSH, YOU'RE DOING MAILERS.
I DON'T KNOW IF WE'RE GOING TO MAIL THE SURVEY BALERS FOR THE CAR, FOR THE INVITE.
PUSH ALL THAT OUT AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE.
UM, AND THEN, UM, I'LL SEND IT OUT TO YOU ALL VIA EMAIL AS WELL, SO THAT YOU ALL CAN PUSH IT OUT TO YOUR CONTACTS.
AND ESPECIALLY WHEN I KNOW THAT DISTANCE, THAT FOLKS ARE TRAVELING TO THOSE AREAS.
SO IT IS NOW SEVEN 11 AT THAT TIME.
UM, AND THIS MEETING IS ADJOURNED JUST IN TIME, MANDY.
