Pledge. Pledge allegiance to the flag. 00:00:12
United States of America and to the Republic for which it stands. 00:00:14
One Nation. 00:00:19
Under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all. 00:00:20
Well, that's a great way to bring it in. Yeah, really. There's your applause line. 00:00:27
All right, so let's see here. 00:00:34
Looks like we have everyone present but. 00:00:39
Mayor Graham. 00:00:41
So all right. 00:00:43
First item on the agenda is going to be the approval. It's January 21st minutes. 00:00:45
Second, I got a motion from Al and a second from Dale. 00:00:52
Any discussion? 00:00:56
OK, all in favor signify by saying aye aye. 00:00:58
Any opposed? 00:01:01
I won't be opposed, but I'll abstain since I wasn't able to be here for that meeting. OK. Can you know that one extension for Mr. 00:01:02
Dignity? OK, Same here. OK. And Mr. Hope. 00:01:06
That's still. 00:01:11
Let's still pass since we had two episodes, OK? 00:01:13
OK, approval of February claims. 00:01:17
I move to approve on this. 00:01:29
All right. 00:01:32
That motion from Out and Sue was the second from Adam. Mr. Dickey. OK. 00:01:34
OK, a motion and 2nd any further discussion? 00:01:39
OK, all in favor signify by saying aye aye. 00:01:42
Any opposed? 00:01:45
All right, cares. 00:01:47
Approve a special February claims. 00:01:50
Were those already reviewed outside of the meeting? Yeah, those those were already reviewed. 00:01:57
Okay. 00:02:17
Thank you for that clarification. 00:02:19
OK, any further discussion? 00:02:22
So the Amazon claim was just normal. 00:02:25
Office related items, right? 00:02:29
Yeah, I'll make a motion to approve those 3. 00:02:31
OK, I got a motion by Mr. Dickey and second by. 00:02:37
All right. 00:02:41
Any further discussion? 00:02:42
All in favor signify by saying aye. 00:02:44
Aye, any post. 00:02:47
All right. Curious. 00:02:48
Approval of Resolution 2025-01. It's my understanding that we have a few new vendors that are added to the list and that's why 00:02:51
they're seeking. 00:02:55
The approval of the resolution. 00:02:59
So it's my recollection that that was passed last month. 00:03:02
Can we have one? 00:03:07
That we had every month. OK. 00:03:08
So then it should be the next resolution number. 00:03:13
Should be on 02 then. 00:03:17
OK. 00:03:20
Unless you're doing, it will still be an amending resolution 02. 00:03:21
OK, do we need to? 00:03:29
Just just for the record, is the. 00:03:31
Is the 2 Highway Press and designed by Dana. 00:03:34
Yes. 00:03:37
I'll make the motion. 00:03:42
OK. 00:03:43
Kind of motion by Mr. Dickey. Can I get a second? 00:03:45
I'll second. 00:03:47
So point of words that's. 00:03:48
Approve as amended. 00:03:51
Resolution 2025-02 Yes, Sir, that's correct. 00:03:52
All right. 00:03:56
Mr. Hope. 00:03:59
All right, got a motion in a second. Is there any further discussion? 00:04:01
All right, all in favor for signify by saying aye. 00:04:05
Any opposed? 00:04:08
That carries. 00:04:09
Directors report. 00:04:11
Good evening. 00:04:15
A lot to talk about tonight. 00:04:16
Including the weather. 00:04:20
You know that. 00:04:21
A rough month. 00:04:23
They're keeping things open but we've managed to stay open, although we've got four days. 00:04:26
So I'll just start with the top marketing communications. 00:04:31
Our viewership is above average right now. 00:04:37
So that's good. 00:04:39
You know, we have detached alerts that go out to the. 00:04:41
Neighborhoods. 00:04:43
Along with we're using. 00:04:45
Facebook and Instagram, which has been. 00:04:48
Pretty successful. Not everyone is on Instagram but. 00:04:51
We feel like we're. 00:04:54
Or touching people that. 00:04:55
That may not be on Facebook and so forth, so we're just trying to hit as many. 00:04:57
Social medias as we can. 00:05:01
The group on a positive note. 00:05:04
The team has been. 00:05:06
Utilizing the Jeffersonville library. 00:05:08
Makerspace. 00:05:11
To uh. 00:05:12
Make decals. 00:05:13
And signage that we. 00:05:15
Have desperately needed for the annex. 00:05:17
In both Greenville. 00:05:19
This includes. 00:05:23
An issue that we're trying to address with people. 00:05:25
Dumping on days that were closed. You've had a big issue in Greenville with. 00:05:28
People leaving their cardboard and. 00:05:34
Also with people. 00:05:36
Breaking into our dumpsters. 00:05:38
In putting trash in our dumpsters. 00:05:40
Not. 00:05:43
Recycle related. 00:05:44
So I've reached out to Steve Bush. 00:05:47
On how to. 00:05:49
Control this better. 00:05:51
But we did not have signage up there. 00:05:54
So we do now. 00:05:56
And we'll be putting more signage. 00:05:57
Up in the future. 00:06:00
So did did you happen to request any extra patrols up there? 00:06:02
You know, for the sheriff, we haven't yet, but once I let him know that we have the signage. 00:06:07
We do have a library that's next door, so we actually have a video of this. 00:06:11
This happened, OK, right. We, we know who's doing this, sure. But again, until we have the signage up there saying it's illegal to 00:06:15
do this. 00:06:20
It's kind of hard to. 00:06:24
To do anything about it right? 00:06:26
OK. So thank you. 00:06:28
Operation initiatives. 00:06:31
January has been a very busy month. 00:06:34
We've increased our count. 00:06:37
You know, year to date. 00:06:39
We also. 00:06:42
Galena, we've had some record. 00:06:43
Days we had one. 00:06:45
Wednesday where we had 474 patrons. 00:06:47
Come through there and I was up there that day. 00:06:50
It was back-to-back. I mean cars backed all the way up. 00:06:53
Through the library parking lot, so. 00:06:56
Extremely busy right now. 00:06:58
We've had some weather related closures. 00:07:02
January the 7th through the 10th. 00:07:06
We were closed in January 21st and 22nd. 00:07:08
And I know that conversation with you. 00:07:13
Jason, that the next two days we may be closed just because of the. 00:07:15
Cold temperatures and because our people have to be outside so much. 00:07:19
So. 00:07:23
Also, we've been dealing with the. 00:07:25
People being out sick. 00:07:27
So it's been a challenge to keep our. 00:07:28
Our roster full. 00:07:31
With all that going on also. 00:07:33
Equipment and building overview. 00:07:38
So here today, you know, we continue to. 00:07:40
Bail cardboard and I really can't say enough about our team and how they. 00:07:43
Jumped on this. 00:07:48
And you know, we, we shipped out 26. 00:07:50
28 more bells this morning. 00:07:53
So it's 56 miles. 00:07:55
For year to date. 00:07:58
And right now? 00:08:00
This is pretty impressive. We're pretty much bailing. 00:08:01
100% of the cardboard. 00:08:03
That comes into. 00:08:05
Our grant line location. 00:08:06
And we do try to build the cardboard that comes in through Lena also. 00:08:08
So very little of our cardboard is being shipped loose now. 00:08:13
Which is good for everybody. 00:08:16
Couple things that we're pursuing. 00:08:20
As improvements. 00:08:22
I know at one time we talked about the. 00:08:24
Our fire hybrid. 00:08:27
That's at the annex. 00:08:30
That is non working. 00:08:31
Apparently there was a water leak several years ago. 00:08:33
And at that time, they did not. 00:08:36
Fix the leak. 00:08:39
We just shut the water off to the whole. 00:08:40
Building up. 00:08:43
Up on the hill. 00:08:44
I'm kind of I'm talking with American Water. 00:08:46
Right now to try to see what it would take to get that. 00:08:49
Fire hydrant back up and running. 00:08:52
I think we would we. 00:08:55
It's something that we should have up there. 00:08:57
Because it sits right beside our chemical building. 00:08:59
You know we have cardboard stacked up there now. 00:09:01
So if we ever had a fire. 00:09:05
You know they would have to come all the way from the road. 00:09:08
Is it currently marked out of service or painted black? 00:09:10
It is Mark Addison service OK. 00:09:14
Where is where? Which location is that? 00:09:16
This is at the ground line Rd. 00:09:18
Location. 00:09:20
OK, it's all the way back at the. 00:09:21
Garage building, right? It's like, yeah, if you come all the way up the driveway. 00:09:24
You'll see there's a garage straight ahead that you see our chemical building beside that. 00:09:28
In the fire hydrant is right there. 00:09:33
Are they, are they asserting that that is? 00:09:37
Our responsibility or. 00:09:40
Their responsibility. 00:09:43
I don't. I've only talked to American Water once, so I'm still trying. 00:09:45
Figure that out. 00:09:48
Yeah, we know. 00:09:49
Kind of where the league is at. 00:09:52
Where it was turned off at. 00:09:55
That's really all I know. 00:09:56
That was waiting for my time. 00:09:57
So we're also pursuing. 00:09:59
Trying to widen the doors on our Baylor building. 00:10:02
To accommodate us being able to back. 00:10:05
Our trailers in without. 00:10:07
Depression against the sides, you know, we have 8 foot trailers in the doors, like 8 foot 4 inches, so there's not much room to 00:10:09
get in. 00:10:13
So I think we can do that. 00:10:17
Fairly cost effective. 00:10:19
So that's another. 00:10:22
Improvement we're looking at. 00:10:23
Let's see. 00:10:26
And we continue to monitor our. 00:10:28
Aging fleet of vehicles you know right now. 00:10:31
I have trucks ever. 00:10:34
Pushing 110,000 miles. 00:10:35
So it makes it challenging with them. 00:10:37
The budget that we have for maintenance, I think it's about $2000 a month. 00:10:40
You know 1 repair. 00:10:44
We'll take that up. 00:10:46
So you know. 00:10:48
Again. 00:10:49
That's going forward. You know, maybe in a year or so we can start looking. 00:10:51
OK, so. 00:10:57
Education. 00:11:00
Due to the weather for. 00:11:03
Education. 00:11:04
We didn't get to do a lot of. 00:11:07
Business to the schools. 00:11:08
So hopefully. 00:11:09
That picks up once the weather cruise. 00:11:10
Special projects. 00:11:16
See, we continue to work with hope. 00:11:19
The partnership with Hope and that has been. 00:11:22
Pretty positive we. 00:11:25
Usually every Friday will take. 00:11:27
Are you know what? We've collected the hope. 00:11:30
Down to them, and they've also. 00:11:33
Started doing a single string program. 00:11:35
Where they I'll take. 00:11:38
The food to them then will pick up their single stream and bring it back. 00:11:41
And put it in our. 00:11:45
In our container, so it's kind of. 00:11:46
Partnership there. 00:11:48
We also for 25. 00:11:50
Since we have a lot of patrons that come into glean us. 00:11:52
That bring their animals. 00:11:55
You know, that's kind of a. 00:11:57
I guess a community. 00:11:59
Thing we have. 00:12:01
Are trying to develop a. 00:12:03
2025 dog calendar. 00:12:05
Which features some of those animals. 00:12:07
And those will will give to those patrons just kind of, you know, keeping the community involved. 00:12:09
The Waste Tire grant. 00:12:15
It's in progress. We are on the list. 00:12:18
Of approval. We're just trying to finalize all the paperwork for that. 00:12:20
Also been talking with the. 00:12:26
Northside Christian Church. 00:12:27
About pursuing a partners partnership. 00:12:29
In the with their recycling there. 00:12:32
We have Ace Hardware, we just dropped a trailer there. 00:12:36
So we're now. 00:12:39
Partnering with them in. 00:12:40
We're bailing that cardboard when it comes back to the hanging. 00:12:43
So that's pretty much all of the operations and so forth. 00:12:47
The budget troops is next. 00:12:51
I'm gonna let Marin Kernan. 00:12:54
Go over those with you. 00:12:55
OK. Thank you. 00:12:57
All right, If you guys don't have any further questions for Dave, I'm just going to jump right ahead to the 2024 year end 00:13:03
financials. 00:13:06
With everybody, these are the trips that were voted on electronically. 00:13:10
I think this is the third month of us attempting these so. 00:13:15
These are what we were able to. 00:13:18
Finalize with our controller at Monroe Shine. 00:13:20
So. 00:13:23
For the start, operators was over budget by 4. 00:13:24
524 dollars. 00:13:28
That was pulled from recycling services. 00:13:30
Operating Manager. 00:13:32
By 1159 from the second services. 00:13:34
Director over by 6437. 00:13:38
Pull from advertising. 00:13:41
Office supplies over 1231 dollars pulled from recycling services. 00:13:43
Gasoline was over by 2133, pulled from recycling services. 00:13:48
River Link was over by $90.00, pulled from postage. 00:13:54
All insurance was opened by $1119 that was pulled from recycling services. 00:13:57
Dues and services was over by $175 that was pulled through recycling services. 00:14:03
Controller was over by 1200. 00:14:10
Dollars that was pulled from marketing and communications. 00:14:13
And imagine Grant was over by. 00:14:16
59,616 That is offset by the grant income, but since we couldn't pull back from income, we had to pull from equipment building per 00:14:18
health recycling services and transporter. 00:14:24
OK, I got a question. 00:14:32
So all these expenses were over budget, is that correct? 00:14:35
They were over budget for the line item that they were a part of, so they were over budget in that specific. 00:14:40
However, for the entire budget we were under by I believe, 16,000. 00:14:46
So. 00:14:51
Still goes to. 00:14:52
The average citizen out here is going to say, Oh my gosh. 00:14:54
You were over budget by $60,000 on one thing even though we had the money over here. 00:14:59
That shows that. 00:15:06
To me it shows that we didn't budget correctly. 00:15:10
So that was. 00:15:13
Whenever Scott had made the budget, that was before we were accepted for the grant, so that money that went into the matching 00:15:16
grant line item had to be added afterwards. 00:15:20
So we had somewhere to put the money that we spent on the grant before we got reimbursed. 00:15:25
So did you have to root so? 00:15:31
The grant covered. 00:15:33
All this, but did you have to resubmit a budget for the grant? 00:15:34
Or just fixed. There was. We had to fix it, which is what we're doing. 00:15:38
Right now, yeah. There was never, Frank. There was never a budget amendment. 00:15:41
To the original budget taking into the grant. So that's why then because of where it came in now we're forced to do the true up as 00:15:45
opposed to a regular budget amendment. Gotcha. That OK, that explains it. 00:15:51
I was wondering if there was an amended grant amount? 00:15:58
In there, OK. 00:16:03
Thank you. Then of course it took a little while to extrapolate this from row shot. 00:16:04
Yeah. 00:16:09
Controller, but we were able to, yeah. 00:16:10
See if I have any questions. Further questions. Not anymore. 00:16:18
All right. So we're going to have to approve these, so I'll seek a motion to approve. 00:16:21
Make motion to approve as submitted. 00:16:29
Tonight's summary. 00:16:34
OK, so you have a motion. 00:16:37
And a second by Dale. 00:16:39
Any further discussion? 00:16:42
All in favor signify by saying aye aye. Any opposed? 00:16:45
It carries. Thank you. 00:16:49
Thank you. 00:16:51
I just want to add this. 00:17:00
Obviously as we're going through the year. 00:17:03
If we see like we're going to be. 00:17:06
Short. 00:17:08
Based on projections. 00:17:12
Let's flag that, you know, at the midway point or at the two third. 00:17:14
2/3 point. 00:17:18
Because I do think to Franks bigger point if. 00:17:19
We can make these adjustments before. 00:17:23
It would look, I think, better for the public. 00:17:26
All right, well we are be able to have a picture now. 00:17:29
What this year is going to look like, right? 00:17:33
Now that we know what last year looked like. 00:17:36
We should be better. 00:17:39
Pretty close. The budget that was approved is just a projection of what? 00:17:40
We had last year and what we will spend this year. 00:17:46
I mean, there's still some unknowns. 00:17:49
Sure, you're always going to have some unknowns and some adjustments, but. 00:17:52
The budget that that you submitted last year? 00:17:55
Did it include these overages? 00:18:00
Or is it still going to be short 25? 00:18:03
No, it should not be short in 20 minutes. 00:18:06
So it did include these over. 00:18:09
So the budget that was submitted for 25. 00:18:11
Should have included these numbers, correct? 00:18:16
With the grants, the grants is what kind of throws us off of that. 00:18:20
Because a lot of those are 5050, we have to. 00:18:24
Put the money forward before we get the money back. 00:18:27
And sometimes it takes. 00:18:29
Time for that to happen. 00:18:31
I'm familiar with grants, yeah. 00:18:34
So we should be in line for 20. 00:18:38
OK, If there's anything that comes up that we see that we're. 00:18:40
Maybe potentially going over we will. 00:18:44
Alert Board. 00:18:46
Yeah. 00:18:48
All right. Any further questions for Dave? 00:18:51
Thank you. 00:18:53
Thanks, Dave. We appreciate you. 00:18:54
Public comment. 00:18:57
All right, seeing none, I'll take a motion to adjourn. 00:19:00
Have a great day everybody. 00:19:04
Thank you. 00:19:06
Al and then Dale. 00:19:10
Yeah. 00:19:17

Any opposed? 00:01:45
All right, cares. 00:01:47
Approve a special February claims. 00:01:50
Were those already reviewed outside of the meeting? Yeah, those those were already reviewed. 00:01:57
Okay. 00:02:17
Thank you for that clarification. 00:02:19
OK, any further discussion? 00:02:22
So the Amazon claim was just normal. 00:02:25
Office related items, right? 00:02:29
Yeah, I'll make a motion to approve those 3. 00:02:31
OK, I got a motion by Mr. Dickey and second by. 00:02:37
All right. 00:02:41
Any further discussion? 00:02:42
All in favor signify by saying aye. 00:02:44
Aye, any post. 00:02:47
All right. Curious. 00:02:48
Approval of Resolution 2025-01. It's my understanding that we have a few new vendors that are added to the list and that's why 00:02:51
they're seeking. 00:02:55
The approval of the resolution. 00:02:59
So it's my recollection that that was passed last month. 00:03:02
Can we have one? 00:03:07
That we had every month. OK. 00:03:08
So then it should be the next resolution number. 00:03:13
Should be on 02 then. 00:03:17
OK. 00:03:20
Unless you're doing, it will still be an amending resolution 02. 00:03:21
OK, do we need to? 00:03:29
Just just for the record, is the. 00:03:31
Is the 2 Highway Press and designed by Dana. 00:03:34
Yes. 00:03:37
I'll make the motion. 00:03:42
OK. 00:03:43
Kind of motion by Mr. Dickey. Can I get a second? 00:03:45
I'll second. 00:03:47
So point of words that's. 00:03:48
Approve as amended. 00:03:51
Resolution 2025-02 Yes, Sir, that's correct. 00:03:52
All right. 00:03:56
Mr. Hope. 00:03:59
All right, got a motion in a second. Is there any further discussion? 00:04:01
All right, all in favor for signify by saying aye. 00:04:05
Any opposed? 00:04:08
That carries. 00:04:09
Directors report. 00:04:11
Good evening. 00:04:15
A lot to talk about tonight. 00:04:16
Including the weather. 00:04:20
You know that. 00:04:21
A rough month. 00:04:23
They're keeping things open but we've managed to stay open, although we've got four days. 00:04:26
So I'll just start with the top marketing communications. 00:04:31
Our viewership is above average right now. 00:04:37
So that's good. 00:04:39
You know, we have detached alerts that go out to the. 00:04:41
Neighborhoods. 00:04:43
Along with we're using. 00:04:45
Facebook and Instagram, which has been. 00:04:48
Pretty successful. Not everyone is on Instagram but. 00:04:51
We feel like we're. 00:04:54
Or touching people that. 00:04:55
That may not be on Facebook and so forth, so we're just trying to hit as many. 00:04:57
Social medias as we can. 00:05:01
The group on a positive note. 00:05:04
The team has been. 00:05:06
Utilizing the Jeffersonville library. 00:05:08
Makerspace. 00:05:11
To uh. 00:05:12
Make decals. 00:05:13
And signage that we. 00:05:15
Have desperately needed for the annex. 00:05:17
In both Greenville. 00:05:19
This includes. 00:05:23
An issue that we're trying to address with people. 00:05:25
Dumping on days that were closed. You've had a big issue in Greenville with. 00:05:28
People leaving their cardboard and. 00:05:34
Also with people. 00:05:36
Breaking into our dumpsters. 00:05:38
In putting trash in our dumpsters. 00:05:40
Not. 00:05:43
Recycle related. 00:05:44
So I've reached out to Steve Bush. 00:05:47
On how to. 00:05:49
Control this better. 00:05:51
But we did not have signage up there. 00:05:54
So we do now. 00:05:56
And we'll be putting more signage. 00:05:57
Up in the future. 00:06:00
So did did you happen to request any extra patrols up there? 00:06:02
You know, for the sheriff, we haven't yet, but once I let him know that we have the signage. 00:06:07
We do have a library that's next door, so we actually have a video of this. 00:06:11
This happened, OK, right. We, we know who's doing this, sure. But again, until we have the signage up there saying it's illegal to 00:06:15
do this. 00:06:20
It's kind of hard to. 00:06:24
To do anything about it right? 00:06:26
OK. So thank you. 00:06:28
Operation initiatives. 00:06:31
January has been a very busy month. 00:06:34
We've increased our count. 00:06:37
You know, year to date. 00:06:39
We also. 00:06:42
Galena, we've had some record. 00:06:43
Days we had one. 00:06:45
Wednesday where we had 474 patrons. 00:06:47
Come through there and I was up there that day. 00:06:50
It was back-to-back. I mean cars backed all the way up. 00:06:53
Through the library parking lot, so. 00:06:56
Extremely busy right now. 00:06:58
We've had some weather related closures. 00:07:02
January the 7th through the 10th. 00:07:06
We were closed in January 21st and 22nd. 00:07:08
And I know that conversation with you. 00:07:13
Jason, that the next two days we may be closed just because of the. 00:07:15
Cold temperatures and because our people have to be outside so much. 00:07:19
So. 00:07:23
Also, we've been dealing with the. 00:07:25
People being out sick. 00:07:27
So it's been a challenge to keep our. 00:07:28
Our roster full. 00:07:31
With all that going on also. 00:07:33
Equipment and building overview. 00:07:38
So here today, you know, we continue to. 00:07:40
Bail cardboard and I really can't say enough about our team and how they. 00:07:43
Jumped on this. 00:07:48
And you know, we, we shipped out 26. 00:07:50
28 more bells this morning. 00:07:53
So it's 56 miles. 00:07:55
For year to date. 00:07:58
And right now? 00:08:00
This is pretty impressive. We're pretty much bailing. 00:08:01
100% of the cardboard. 00:08:03
That comes into. 00:08:05
Our grant line location. 00:08:06
And we do try to build the cardboard that comes in through Lena also. 00:08:08
So very little of our cardboard is being shipped loose now. 00:08:13
Which is good for everybody. 00:08:16
Couple things that we're pursuing. 00:08:20
As improvements. 00:08:22
I know at one time we talked about the. 00:08:24
Our fire hybrid. 00:08:27
That's at the annex. 00:08:30
That is non working. 00:08:31
Apparently there was a water leak several years ago. 00:08:33
And at that time, they did not. 00:08:36
Fix the leak. 00:08:39
We just shut the water off to the whole. 00:08:40
Building up. 00:08:43
Up on the hill. 00:08:44
I'm kind of I'm talking with American Water. 00:08:46
Right now to try to see what it would take to get that. 00:08:49
Fire hydrant back up and running. 00:08:52
I think we would we. 00:08:55
It's something that we should have up there. 00:08:57
Because it sits right beside our chemical building. 00:08:59
You know we have cardboard stacked up there now. 00:09:01
So if we ever had a fire. 00:09:05
You know they would have to come all the way from the road. 00:09:08
Is it currently marked out of service or painted black? 00:09:10
It is Mark Addison service OK. 00:09:14
Where is where? Which location is that? 00:09:16
This is at the ground line Rd. 00:09:18
Location. 00:09:20
OK, it's all the way back at the. 00:09:21
Garage building, right? It's like, yeah, if you come all the way up the driveway. 00:09:24
You'll see there's a garage straight ahead that you see our chemical building beside that. 00:09:28
In the fire hydrant is right there. 00:09:33
Are they, are they asserting that that is? 00:09:37
Our responsibility or. 00:09:40
Their responsibility. 00:09:43
I don't. I've only talked to American Water once, so I'm still trying. 00:09:45
Figure that out. 00:09:48
Yeah, we know. 00:09:49
Kind of where the league is at. 00:09:52
Where it was turned off at. 00:09:55
That's really all I know. 00:09:56
That was waiting for my time. 00:09:57
So we're also pursuing. 00:09:59
Trying to widen the doors on our Baylor building. 00:10:02
To accommodate us being able to back. 00:10:05
Our trailers in without. 00:10:07
Depression against the sides, you know, we have 8 foot trailers in the doors, like 8 foot 4 inches, so there's not much room to 00:10:09
get in. 00:10:13
So I think we can do that. 00:10:17
Fairly cost effective. 00:10:19
So that's another. 00:10:22
Improvement we're looking at. 00:10:23
Let's see. 00:10:26
And we continue to monitor our. 00:10:28
Aging fleet of vehicles you know right now. 00:10:31
I have trucks ever. 00:10:34
Pushing 110,000 miles. 00:10:35
So it makes it challenging with them. 00:10:37
The budget that we have for maintenance, I think it's about $2000 a month. 00:10:40
You know 1 repair. 00:10:44
We'll take that up. 00:10:46
So you know. 00:10:48
Again. 00:10:49
That's going forward. You know, maybe in a year or so we can start looking. 00:10:51
OK, so. 00:10:57
Education. 00:11:00
Due to the weather for. 00:11:03
Education. 00:11:04
We didn't get to do a lot of. 00:11:07
Business to the schools. 00:11:08
So hopefully. 00:11:09
That picks up once the weather cruise. 00:11:10
Special projects. 00:11:16
See, we continue to work with hope. 00:11:19
The partnership with Hope and that has been. 00:11:22
Pretty positive we. 00:11:25
Usually every Friday will take. 00:11:27
Are you know what? We've collected the hope. 00:11:30
Down to them, and they've also. 00:11:33
Started doing a single string program. 00:11:35
Where they I'll take. 00:11:38
The food to them then will pick up their single stream and bring it back. 00:11:41
And put it in our. 00:11:45
In our container, so it's kind of. 00:11:46
Partnership there. 00:11:48
We also for 25. 00:11:50
Since we have a lot of patrons that come into glean us. 00:11:52
That bring their animals. 00:11:55
You know, that's kind of a. 00:11:57
I guess a community. 00:11:59
Thing we have. 00:12:01
Are trying to develop a. 00:12:03
2025 dog calendar. 00:12:05
Which features some of those animals. 00:12:07
And those will will give to those patrons just kind of, you know, keeping the community involved. 00:12:09
The Waste Tire grant. 00:12:15
It's in progress. We are on the list. 00:12:18
Of approval. We're just trying to finalize all the paperwork for that. 00:12:20
Also been talking with the. 00:12:26
Northside Christian Church. 00:12:27
About pursuing a partners partnership. 00:12:29
In the with their recycling there. 00:12:32
We have Ace Hardware, we just dropped a trailer there. 00:12:36
So we're now. 00:12:39
Partnering with them in. 00:12:40
We're bailing that cardboard when it comes back to the hanging. 00:12:43
So that's pretty much all of the operations and so forth. 00:12:47
The budget troops is next. 00:12:51
I'm gonna let Marin Kernan. 00:12:54
Go over those with you. 00:12:55
OK. Thank you. 00:12:57
All right, If you guys don't have any further questions for Dave, I'm just going to jump right ahead to the 2024 year end 00:13:03
financials. 00:13:06
With everybody, these are the trips that were voted on electronically. 00:13:10
I think this is the third month of us attempting these so. 00:13:15
These are what we were able to. 00:13:18
Finalize with our controller at Monroe Shine. 00:13:20
So. 00:13:23
For the start, operators was over budget by 4. 00:13:24
524 dollars. 00:13:28
That was pulled from recycling services. 00:13:30
Operating Manager. 00:13:32
By 1159 from the second services. 00:13:34
Director over by 6437. 00:13:38
Pull from advertising. 00:13:41
Office supplies over 1231 dollars pulled from recycling services. 00:13:43
Gasoline was over by 2133, pulled from recycling services. 00:13:48
River Link was over by $90.00, pulled from postage. 00:13:54
All insurance was opened by $1119 that was pulled from recycling services. 00:13:57
Dues and services was over by $175 that was pulled through recycling services. 00:14:03
Controller was over by 1200. 00:14:10
Dollars that was pulled from marketing and communications. 00:14:13
And imagine Grant was over by. 00:14:16
59,616 That is offset by the grant income, but since we couldn't pull back from income, we had to pull from equipment building per 00:14:18
health recycling services and transporter. 00:14:24
OK, I got a question. 00:14:32
So all these expenses were over budget, is that correct? 00:14:35
They were over budget for the line item that they were a part of, so they were over budget in that specific. 00:14:40
However, for the entire budget we were under by I believe, 16,000. 00:14:46
So. 00:14:51
Still goes to. 00:14:52
The average citizen out here is going to say, Oh my gosh. 00:14:54
You were over budget by $60,000 on one thing even though we had the money over here. 00:14:59
That shows that. 00:15:06
To me it shows that we didn't budget correctly. 00:15:10
So that was. 00:15:13
Whenever Scott had made the budget, that was before we were accepted for the grant, so that money that went into the matching 00:15:16
grant line item had to be added afterwards. 00:15:20
So we had somewhere to put the money that we spent on the grant before we got reimbursed. 00:15:25
So did you have to root so? 00:15:31
The grant covered. 00:15:33
All this, but did you have to resubmit a budget for the grant? 00:15:34
Or just fixed. There was. We had to fix it, which is what we're doing. 00:15:38
Right now, yeah. There was never, Frank. There was never a budget amendment. 00:15:41
To the original budget taking into the grant. So that's why then because of where it came in now we're forced to do the true up as 00:15:45
opposed to a regular budget amendment. Gotcha. That OK, that explains it. 00:15:51
I was wondering if there was an amended grant amount? 00:15:58
In there, OK. 00:16:03
Thank you. Then of course it took a little while to extrapolate this from row shot. 00:16:04
Yeah. 00:16:09
Controller, but we were able to, yeah. 00:16:10
See if I have any questions. Further questions. Not anymore. 00:16:18
All right. So we're going to have to approve these, so I'll seek a motion to approve. 00:16:21
Make motion to approve as submitted. 00:16:29
Tonight's summary. 00:16:34
OK, so you have a motion. 00:16:37
And a second by Dale. 00:16:39
Any further discussion? 00:16:42
All in favor signify by saying aye aye. Any opposed? 00:16:45
It carries. Thank you. 00:16:49
Thank you. 00:16:51
I just want to add this. 00:17:00
Obviously as we're going through the year. 00:17:03
If we see like we're going to be. 00:17:06
Short. 00:17:08
Based on projections. 00:17:12
Let's flag that, you know, at the midway point or at the two third. 00:17:14
2/3 point. 00:17:18
Because I do think to Franks bigger point if. 00:17:19
We can make these adjustments before. 00:17:23
It would look, I think, better for the public. 00:17:26
All right, well we are be able to have a picture now. 00:17:29
What this year is going to look like, right? 00:17:33
Now that we know what last year looked like. 00:17:36
We should be better. 00:17:39
Pretty close. The budget that was approved is just a projection of what? 00:17:40
We had last year and what we will spend this year. 00:17:46
I mean, there's still some unknowns. 00:17:49
Sure, you're always going to have some unknowns and some adjustments, but. 00:17:52
The budget that that you submitted last year? 00:17:55
Did it include these overages? 00:18:00
Or is it still going to be short 25? 00:18:03
No, it should not be short in 20 minutes. 00:18:06
So it did include these over. 00:18:09
So the budget that was submitted for 25. 00:18:11
Should have included these numbers, correct? 00:18:16
With the grants, the grants is what kind of throws us off of that. 00:18:20
Because a lot of those are 5050, we have to. 00:18:24
Put the money forward before we get the money back. 00:18:27
And sometimes it takes. 00:18:29
Time for that to happen. 00:18:31
I'm familiar with grants, yeah. 00:18:34
So we should be in line for 20. 00:18:38
OK, If there's anything that comes up that we see that we're. 00:18:40
Maybe potentially going over we will. 00:18:44
Alert Board. 00:18:46
Yeah. 00:18:48
All right. Any further questions for Dave? 00:18:51
Thank you. 00:18:53
Thanks, Dave. We appreciate you. 00:18:54
Public comment. 00:18:57
All right, seeing none, I'll take a motion to adjourn. 00:19:00
Have a great day everybody. 00:19:04
Thank you. 00:19:06
Al and then Dale. 00:19:10
Yeah. 00:19:17
