[00:02] Call me with a momma. The Reggers get her made a momma city council for Tuesday, February 20th, 2024.
[00:08] Publicians put on schedule personal appearances. We have none. Three claims list.
[00:14] Motion. Second.
[00:19] Hi. Is that a Williams?
[00:22] Perfect.
[00:22] Five. Four minutes from February 5th, 2024, Regger meeting.
[00:26] Motion.
[00:27] Second.
[00:30] Is that a Williams?
[00:33] Perfect.
[00:34] Five. Budget amendment number 24-08.
[00:39] Receiving an expending $304 additional funds in state aid for the Oklahoma Department of Libraries.
[00:45] C24-07 for the library. Receiving an expending insurance recovery and building scrap metal revenues.
[00:52] Fire.
[00:53] Receiving an expending $14,756 to purchase the four sets of bunker gear that were lost during the public works fire.
[01:01] On April 23.
[01:04] The streets expending 15,234 dollars and 25 cents to replace the equipment that was lost in the 988 dollars and 98 cents for building cost to date.
[01:17] Remaining building replacement costs will be managed by the facilities.
[01:21] 309,845 dollars and 68 cents.
[01:25] So this amendment does several different things.
[01:31] One. The library got in more money from state aid than we had budgeted for them to get.
[01:36] So that $304 extra dollars they want to be able to spend it.
[01:39] So it's doing that.
[01:40] And then on the fire that occurred April of 23.
[01:45] We have expenditures.
[01:47] We've replaced equipment.
[01:49] We replaced bunker gear and we've done a little bit of work on the building.
[01:52] So we've spent some money.
[01:54] We spent some money last year and we spent some money this year.
[01:57] And what this does, it makes everything even.
[02:00] And it moves whatever's left out of our insurance recovery as of today.
[02:05] It moves it to facilities so they can now use that money for the replacing building.
[02:11] And remember that this time last year or April we were talking about a possible transfer out the rainy day fund for the remainder of the cost of the building.
[02:22] That will still happen.
[02:25] We just don't know where we're at.
[02:28] Do we receive this money that for 15,000?
[02:31] Yes.
[02:32] Yes.
[02:33] And we actually expect to receive some more money.
[02:38] But we just want to catch everything up for now.
[02:48] Where do they expect to cost of getting this completely finished?
[02:51] Like, yeah, that number can.
[02:53] Not yet.
[02:55] We've had the contractors.
[03:00] I do have to put it back in the same spot. It's not favorable. I thought it would be because that
[03:06] creature runs through there and stuff like that. So we're going back to ground zero, starting
[03:12] to the ground up. Yeah, by the days for locations. Do be somewhere on that side. We're looking
[03:22] back on that side. Oh, I got you. So it will still be in the same area and I just want to make a motion.
[03:39] Can we prove it? I'm sorry. Williams. Hi. Hi. Hi. Six master service agreement with the
[03:53] Anderson engineering owners for the engineering services. This is just a motion to prove.
[04:02] Second. Hi.
[04:06] Williams. Hi. Parker. No see way to get all well.
[04:12] Episode seven member of agreement with the upcoming Department of Wildlife Conservation for the
[04:19] Pile Fish Boom Bill fishing program and ratify city mangers signature. Was that $1,000 go to
[04:50] as it go to South Africa. South Africa in the orgrace to the go ramps.
[05:05] That's part of the spring. That's a free berman. You're just to apply a permit. It was
[05:10] a permit that would be charged to a fee for him.
[05:13] But we entered into agreement with wildlife several years back
[05:16] that rather than as charging for that permit,
[05:20] they were paying us a bigger sum of money.
[05:24] But since the youth got it, the caviar market,
[05:31] they're not doing near as much stuff now.
[05:34] We had collected our fees as past season.
[05:40] We would have gotten a lot less money than like this $1,000.
[05:43] And they're taking that into consideration.
[05:47] We lost your seniors, a research center.
[05:50] We lost the research center now.
[05:52] Historically, there were a lot more pathophysch
[05:54] that were checked in years past.
[05:57] And so that agreement with the state was around five.
[06:00] $5,000 a year in lieu of us asking people to get city-printed criminalized.
[06:05] The problem is that the harvest has dramatically dropped off, where there used to be hundreds
[06:11] back in, and say 2010, there may have been 700 petal fish checked in, last year there were
[06:18] 19, and a year for that to be like 60, so it's dramatically reduced. So to them, there's nothing
[06:26] driving them to help us drive down costs of a permit, and there's no sense in us
[06:31] permitting something we're not going to make you money on where you're going to run away
[06:34] in the language we have. This is probably the best deal we can get for now, and we'll see
[06:40] what's with the future of the petal fish. The reason they want to appreciate that they would like to see
[06:47] that part of the petal fish, they're still wanting the water to come back to a patient part.
[07:10] And they do want to be very helpful. I mean, they're not wrong, and there's a lot of
[07:14] the fingers we could be helping throughout the year, rather than just a small period during
[07:19] the spawn of the petal fish. So there's great opportunity here, and they are wanting to be
[07:24] good partners who's a stock of trap, Mr. Lowman, and it's a problem with you.
[07:32] Right, I think they're going to go. Motion approved.
[07:35] Thank you.
[07:38] So what's up? Hi.
[07:40] It's step-by-pointing. Hi.
[07:42] Hi. Thanks, if a moment of part in a various ways, and there are not its grant application
[07:48] and Federal Aviation Administration grant applications for the new airport terminal.
[07:53] I'll throw a city manager to execute the grant documents and subsequent related paperwork.
[07:58] So this is the actual grant document that goes to ODA, the change of route passes.
[08:07] We'll re-tap just a little bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a
[08:11] total project is right at 3.2 million. Right now, the city's part is 1.2 million.
[08:19] Two nine council groups are approved. 1.2.
[08:23] We are working with the contractor to get that down, out of the contact with them.
[08:31] This is just the grand document to send in ODA. ODA has already approved the project.
[08:40] Depending on the arrival of our airport, this just sent the paperwork in the four lines of grant.
[08:46] I'll make motion to approve.
[09:00] Nine amendments to the outside organizational contracts for fiscal year 2324 for my senior center and
[09:07] Being a crisis center
[09:11] In your packet to contracts amended for each of these organizations the senior center. We put them together the senior center when they put in their application last year
[09:23] The inadvertently put 15,000 when they should have put 18 because that's what it was raised to in the middle of the year last year
[09:30] So we're correcting that to 18,000 from 15 and then from the crisis center
[09:35] They came and presented several meetings ago and you want to staff to use a research on that and
[09:43] In your packet is the BA that shows you their usage over the past few years
[09:49] The next agenda item
[09:51] So credits utility credits aren't
[09:55] expense the same way
[09:59] What it does is actually reduces emissurate revenue. So
[10:04] The customer service manager, she builds them and she goes right in and credits their bill
[10:09] So it's really just a reduction of revenue however you
[10:13] Indicated you wanted to
[10:15] Pay using the budget money as you have for the council individually and that so that was a fit. It's gonna be like a 15,000-dollar
[10:23] expenditure and
[10:25] the offset to that would be
[10:28] A budget amendment to decrease the two million go to a general fund by 15,000. So that's the next
[10:46] Motion we approve
[10:55] 10 budget amendment 24 to zero nine reducing the transfer from MSUA to the general fund to care of the additional utility credit
[11:02] $15,000 provide the community crisis in a motion to a proof
[11:10] Say it
[11:15] Thank you. 11
[11:18] Other new business of any
[11:20] We use a post of reasons that's opposing this agenda
[11:23] 12 staff reports 13 mayor council community now folks
[11:40] So so I was I was just wanting to
[11:44] There was a woman in my neighborhood. It was
[11:49] We got broken into last month. I think just recently and so she she
[11:56] She goes there alone by so she's 80
[12:00] I won't mention who she is but she called 911 and stayed up and got them on the phone
[12:07] They got the police over there within
[12:11] What she thought was second and and and
[12:16] They I think there was three officers
[12:18] total that
[12:20] It was on the scene they had
[12:23] Two of them that was tracking this guy that laughed in the snow
[12:27] And one of one of the officers
[12:31] Justin Barry
[12:33] Notersers cameras at my house, so he came over to my house at
[12:36] Two in the morning and
[12:40] And and wanted to look at my cameras. So I just wanted to commend
[12:45] City my officers for the job that they do and I think that just reflects on chief Anderson's leadership
[12:52] that
[12:54] What a great job the police department does in general and
[12:59] The 911 operator that was on there stayed on the phone with her until they got there
[13:04] And she was just ecstatic about the whole deal. So she thought it was a great job
[13:10] Made her feel great and so it all went really well
[13:14] She's got it. She's getting the security system installed at this point. So but but it all went well
[13:19] But I just wanted to note that
[13:27] I got another story kind like that. Our girls in our business office
[13:35] Four years ago
[13:38] I got a lot of calls about the business office
[13:40] Now I hardly get any and the ones that do get are always positive
[13:44] The girls in the office are going to great job the care of our citizens
[13:48] They're really doing a good job
[13:50] The lady had lost her mother
[13:52] She was trying to take care of her mother's
[13:54] Everything final the bills and you know that stuff and our girl if counter was really passionate
[14:03] Her mother real really good about the situation walk her through how to do it and how to handle it
[14:08] So the lady reached out to me and and wanted to thank us for for our girls in the office
[14:12] So they're doing a great job and
[14:14] I appreciate them very much
[14:17] Because I'm a call today in conference call and
[14:21] This conference call all
[14:24] Several not all but several or travel partners are on that call
[14:30] And guys
[14:31] We're extremely fortunate here to have the partner. We do in our travel partners
[14:38] Some of the stuff we deal with on a day-to-day basis we couldn't do without them
[14:43] So I know sometimes people feel like that's a a problem for some reason to have travel partners
[14:50] Got something down yet. It's a huge huge benefit for us. I don't know the town spill about it
[14:56] But I know for me it's been a huge asset those chiefs are old
[15:00] these real cognizant of helping us with anything we need.
[15:03] So that call today made me really realize
[15:07] those on the call with me as well.
[15:10] The sooner or more, the better help them fight with things we need to get done.
[15:14] So I appreciate our travel partners.
[15:16] I wanted to do this for those of you that don't know, there was an election last.
[15:22] Well, early in February.
[15:24] And so Councilman Williams and Councilman Sunberg did not refile and did not rerun.
[15:31] So the last meeting in April will be their last meeting.
[15:35] But we do have a lot of our new councilwoman here.
[15:39] This college owns.
[15:40] She'll be taking over for Councilman Sunberg.
[15:45] So if you haven't got a chance to meet her, please say hi to her.
[15:49] We leave.
[15:50] I think it's all I've got, so we want to 14 to manage our communications.
[15:56] I got one thing that I wanted to make note of,
[15:59] Cali asked me to remind everybody that at the public library, this is financial literacy week.
[16:06] They have an entire program, guys, of training that's available to the public.
[16:11] All week long, these are classes that are set up.
[16:13] They're each about an hour long.
[16:15] They're scheduled, just like if you went to a conference, but they've got things like investing basics,
[16:19] loan basics, insurance, auto loans, retirement calculators, mortgages, budgeting, all of these things,
[16:28] which are available to the public.
[16:29] It's a great opportunity.
[16:30] Folks to get out there, I would encourage anybody that's got young adults, that need additional training
[16:38] after high school.
[16:39] I know my kids would benefit from this, but it's a great deal they've got set up today.
[16:44] They had several, but I did go through them and many of those were repeated throughout the week.
[16:48] So we haven't missed anything if you want to get out there and take advantage of that, but again,
[16:51] financial literacy week at the public library and they just do an amazing job there.
[16:56] You can find this schedule online, go to the city website, go to the public library, and they've got the whole schedule available.
[17:03] Before we adjourn, I want to thank the Boy Scout and further leadership.
[17:07] Thank you, really well.
