[02:20] Really.
[02:27] Good morning.
[02:28] I'm going.
[02:33] I'm going.
[02:34] I'm just about a 60 million 100.
[03:14] Do you see it? I've pulled it up on the website. We can't get in your own. Sorry. Sorry about that. Yeah, yeah
[04:24] Do you want to look at this blessed?
[04:27] Smaller on pay of works. As I said, that's how tight our budget is. We're sharing it. I think I'll make a motion. We approve
[05:25] Hey, I'll provide the trust manager and city of Toronto to go shade and execute a contract
[05:31] with uptown services for the design of a vibrant network. Yeah, so this is the exciting agenda item for tonight
[05:38] This would be for us to hire uptown services to design like blessed our fiber system for the community
[05:44] You know, since I've been here we've had a lot of people that say they want to come in bring fiber, you know, you already
[05:48] All of it, but I mean, nobody's yet to come in. I'm sure as we start to design somebody else will come out of the work
[05:53] So they want to come in. I just think you know besides the revenues, there's also a lot of intrinsic values
[06:00] As you know, the police you can talk about putting cameras around the community that we get picked up, you know, the last players on, you know, I think of like the softball fields and the baseball fields thus having internet there and then Kevin could sell ads or like why if I use his or something, you know, I mean there's lots of good things to do.
[06:17] So, I've found services to the company that did our ROI study, you know, a few years ago.
[06:23] I'm going to show that, you know, it's a very good project. He said they've done 70-some as of today.
[06:30] He put ours in the top 10 percent as far as, you know, success.
[06:35] This, I reached out to some of their companies that they've done work for.
[06:38] They did work for sales, so they did design sales, but they helped them keep everything going right now.
[06:43] And sales also, they would hire them to get in a heartbeat.
[06:47] I talked to a gentleman named Michael Gardner at the City of Glenwood Springs.
[06:53] He said we definitely would, this is actually a ZML.
[06:56] We had them do a feasibility study design and some implementation work happened to kick off the project off in 2020.
[07:02] And their help was invaluable in planning and implemented implementation process.
[07:06] Then I got reached out to Monroe Johnson, the chief technology officer for a co-op, you know, electric co-op.
[07:13] He said I would definitely use up-down services again that have been our engineering firm from the beginning of our fiber-to-the-home project.
[07:19] And I've worked with them for over 11 years. They're knowledgeable and responsive, and I would highly recommend them with the exclamation marks.
[07:27] So, just asking the board for approval tonight to me for, I guess if I had my way, we would approve it.
[07:34] And then three, four, five months, we would have a big ribbon cutting with our first fiber strand ran or something like that all the board there.
[07:42] What's the matter there?
[07:45] Is the question too awkward?
[07:48] Potion to approve?
[07:49] I guess.
[07:50] So cool.
[07:52] Five.
[07:53] Five.
[07:54] Five.
[07:55] Five.
[07:56] Five.
[07:57] Thank you.
[07:58] Nine.
[07:59] Other new business.
[08:00] If any, which is in prison since the posting of this agenda,
[08:03] Jim Jones, he can get announcements.
[08:07] I'll have an agreement.
[08:11] Motion.
[08:12] Second.
[08:13] Five.
[08:15] Four.
[08:16] Five.
[08:17] Five.
[08:18] Five.
[08:19] Five.
