Speak. Alright, Nick, you're up with old business. 00:02:07

All those in favor say aye aye. 00:02:28
Thank you, Lena Sewer. 00:02:36
Without absentee. 00:02:38
Leading the charge of one code too deep into it, right? We did meet with. 00:02:41
Folks at the town rebel. 00:02:46
And some questions about. 00:02:49
Capacity. 00:02:52
My mother, her. 00:02:53
Proposed expansion would. 00:02:56
Allow the town to still have enough. 00:02:59
City which I I. 00:03:01
What's happening? I've provided that back and yeah, they so. 00:03:03
I. 00:03:08
Two things I had done is my firm because obviously civil engineers. 00:03:09
Works for the county and. 00:03:13
Hand for work. 00:03:14
Greenville. 00:03:16
We looked at years ago. 00:03:18
And so I had all that data. 00:03:19
Looked at it and. 00:03:22
It would use up the rest of their capacity, theoretically. 00:03:23
I mean, so there's options and we need to further that discussion with this. 00:03:27
But it seemed that. 00:03:31
They they could serve the town. 00:03:32
Yes, and then we would use up the rest of it before. 00:03:36
That's correct. So yeah, that would be cool. So they. 00:03:39
There's some options to look at with them, we just need a further that you said we need to follow back up. 00:03:43
I'm gonna have to take our next steps with them is. 00:03:48
What a build out would look like, yeah. 00:03:51
Somebody 'cause they want to make sure their time. 00:03:54
That's right. OK. 00:03:58
Principles are before we start. 00:03:59
That's serving outside of the town. 00:04:01
So and it it all comes to funding, how would they fund that? How would we fund our park? 00:04:04
Yeah, so. 00:04:10
Then there may be opportunities to look at grants together. Maybe there's we just have to. 00:04:12
Further that discussion. 00:04:17
So no action maybe on that. 00:04:18
All right. Well, new business. So Jim Everson, you're here. 00:04:23
So so I asked you to come. We had some discussion here. 00:04:26
The last meeting I believe previously. 00:04:31
Proposals that. 00:04:39
Hotel there some questions came up on. 00:04:41
How they innkeeper taxes use what gets taxed? Are small short term rentals included in that? 00:04:44
So I thought. 00:04:50
It'd be glad to have Jim come in and. 00:04:51
Kind of answer any questions, kind of go over how. 00:04:54
The sponsor distributed. 00:04:57
Jefferson Park in Floyd County Convention and Tourism Bureau. He was also enters into the shelter. 00:05:01
I'm also the advocacy here for the Indiana Tourism Association, so I've become the resident. 00:05:07
State geek on innkeeper's tax. 00:05:13
Code so. 00:05:16
Not only no hours, I kind of know that the state background and. 00:05:20
And and how? 00:05:23
How we got to where we are. 00:05:24
I'll give you the quick, quick overview and then interrupt me with questions along the way. 00:05:26
50 years ago. 00:05:32
General Assembly passed. 00:05:35
A new chapter of. 00:05:37
In the area code 69. 00:05:39
And this is chapter 3. 00:05:41
Specific to Clark and Floyd counties. 00:05:43
The General Assembly levied. 00:05:46
An innkeeper's tax. 00:05:48
In that legislation. 00:05:49
And created a board of managers. 00:05:51
To to oversee that. 00:05:54
The board managers is appointed by 5. 00:05:56
Appointing authorities. 00:05:59
Those county commissioners and Clark and Floyd. 00:06:01
Mayor 6 now. 00:06:04
Adam The. 00:06:06
The mayors of New Albany and. 00:06:08
Jeffersonville, the Clarksville Town Council and effective July 1. 00:06:10
To Mayor Charlestown. 00:06:14
We'll have one point. So our board is going to grow to 14. 00:06:15
July 1, because of that new addition that came in. 00:06:19
The most recent? 00:06:22
Session of the General Assembly. 00:06:23
Beam keepers tax. 00:06:27
Can be used for. 00:06:29
Purposes. 00:06:32
To grow tourism. 00:06:33
In in the community. 00:06:35
There's different. 00:06:38
Definitions and phrases used in different chapters applying to different communities around the state but. 00:06:40
That that is fairly consistent. 00:06:46
Principal throughout all the. 00:06:52
About the different chapters, the idea of being. 00:06:54
This attacks that comes from the customers of lodging properties. 00:06:57
And and and should go back to benefit. 00:07:02
The industry. 00:07:06
Whose customers are are funding? 00:07:07
So it's added on to the. 00:07:09
To the room charge, just like say sales. 00:07:10
Flows through three. 00:07:13
Department of Revenue back down to the county treasurers and and and then us. 00:07:14
Ours is a little bit different. 00:07:20
In that 75% of our funding. 00:07:22
Goes toward. 00:07:25
The more traditional role that you think about. 00:07:26
For a convention and visitors Bureau, Tourism Bureau. 00:07:30
We now call ourselves destination. 00:07:33
Marketing organizations. 00:07:35
Whatever that is. 00:07:37
What? Whatever the name, is the function still the same? 00:07:39
And that is? 00:07:42
Promotion. 00:07:43
To draw visitors in. 00:07:44
That could be leader travelers. It could be. 00:07:47
You know, we're very active in the senior motor coach tour market. 00:07:50
Bringing that those groups in. 00:07:53
We're ramping up more and more. 00:07:56
Marketing efforts toward. 00:07:59
The youth sports travel market. 00:08:00
And and to the meetings market. 00:08:03
So 75% of our funding is in that marketing. 00:08:05
Find it as a function. 00:08:10
The thing that's weird about us is that 25% is dedicated to a. 00:08:12
Tourism capital development. 00:08:16
And in the shorthand on that is that. 00:08:19
Those funds can only be used to pay off bonds. 00:08:22
Issued by municipal partner. 00:08:25
For projects that our board approves. 00:08:27
That language was added in 1986. 00:08:30
To our To our chapters of statute. 00:08:35
And we've been allowed to build rules around that. 00:08:40
And so over 40 years of that program, we funded about 10. 00:08:44
It's coming up on $7,000,000 worth of. 00:08:49
Projects throughout the communities. 00:08:51
That include things like. 00:08:54
You own the amphitheater, Jeffersonville River Stage. 00:08:55
Falsely Ohio Interpretive Center. 00:08:58
The original bill. 00:09:01
Redo of the exhibits. Another redo of the exhibits. 00:09:03
The Noco arson cultures. 00:09:07
Place on fields at IUS. 00:09:13
More recently, Nova Park. 00:09:18
And the overseas stop. 00:09:21
Project. 00:09:22
So there's this whole list of projects that. 00:09:24
That we've helped done. 00:09:27
Our our storing. 00:09:30
In our application process. 00:09:32
You get any applicant gets a higher score in. 00:09:34
In this particular. 00:09:38
Element, if we're if we are funding 25% or less of the total project cost, we want to see leverage. 00:09:40
We want to see other buy in other partners there also. 00:09:46
So that that's been an important. 00:09:51
An important principle. 00:09:52
We're we're going through right now a bond issue. 00:09:54
Through the Economic Development Commission, Floyd County. 00:09:59
That will fund for. 00:10:02
Projects. 00:10:04
Three of which are in Floyd County. 00:10:06
The amphitheater project at. 00:10:09
CMP Community Park. 00:10:12
Trailhead at on the monetary. 00:10:15
Why not Trailer Bayou Southeast? 00:10:17
And turf on us on some of the fields at Silver Street Park. 00:10:20
The 4th project is at Jeffersonville High School. 00:10:25
I know it sounds weird on the surface, but. 00:10:29
They are building a. 00:10:32
Very competitive Natatorium. 00:10:35
It'll be the largest One South of Indianapolis. 00:10:39
And we'll make our region. 00:10:43
Competitive in. 00:10:45
The swing beat. 00:10:47
Business that we currently can't go for. 00:10:48
And they need additional. 00:10:51
It's not sexy. 00:10:53
But we're contributing. 00:10:54
250,000 Toward. 00:10:56
Fort Moore Parking. 00:10:57
To be able to accommodate the cars necessary to film. 00:10:59
The thousand seats in the sanatorium. 00:11:02
So. 00:11:04
There were 13 projects that applied in 2025. 00:11:06
4/4 are getting funded and that bond will close. 00:11:10
August 27th and we'll be able to start. 00:11:15
It's getting funding to those projects. 00:11:18
So we do. 00:11:20
Capital projects. 00:11:23
Through that through that package. 00:11:24
I'll stop there. 00:11:29
Questions. 00:11:31
Well, that's fantastic. 00:11:33
You know, we've got. 00:11:35
I've got Nova Park and the adjacent. 00:11:37
Regional Park, That's as you're well aware of. 00:11:39
We've had discussions over the years about that, so. 00:11:42
Lots of opportunities and plans and. 00:11:45
They sat there, I guess. Good to know that. 00:11:48
So there's other funding mechanisms that maybe we could. 00:11:51
Leverage. Yeah, You know. 00:11:54
Floyd County is the pass through. 00:11:56
County. 00:11:57
OK. 00:11:59
Since they're not a taxi, we have to send it to you. Gotcha. 00:12:00
Yeah, so we. 00:12:03
Yeah, we look Floyd, David dot Clark to go see. 00:12:04
Yeah, Clark has before. 00:12:07
That we've done the last two rounds, mainly because we have. 00:12:09
For the projects here. 00:12:13
Then Clark, would you say that's the reason or? 00:12:14
Yes, especially in this last round. 00:12:17
When you when you look at the distribution of of funds either by county or by. 00:12:20
Jurisdiction. 00:12:24
Over the years it's been pretty even. 00:12:26
What Yes at Floyd County Law Department generated about 18%. 00:12:29
Of our revenue, but. 00:12:33
Floyd Shammy. 00:12:35
Projects have received. 00:12:37
About 1/3 of the funding historically. 00:12:38
And so. 00:12:41
So y'all been touching by the weight class? 00:12:43
On that, he just likes to play better. 00:12:46
Some superior. 00:12:50
So the inn, the innkeeper's tax, that's the only one available. 00:12:56
To the charging. 00:13:01
Yeah, four months. 00:13:04
So there's nothing localities from enacting their own. 00:13:07
Thank you for style tax. 00:13:11
If you if you were in Harrison County. 00:13:13
It's not legislated. 00:13:17
Tax it is enabling. 00:13:20
Language Harrison County's. 00:13:23
Language came later. 00:13:27
And their language says the County Council may love the attacks, and if so, the county commissioner shall create. 00:13:28
That's mission. 00:13:34
But the earlier one, starting in the 70s, like us, we were the. 00:13:37
We were the 4th chapter past. 00:13:41
In the state and and. 00:13:44
And it was more county by county by county. 00:13:46
A real slog. 00:13:50
To get these things passed. 00:13:52
And it was. 00:13:54
General Assembly levies the tax and creates the the governing body. 00:13:56
At at some point in the in the 80s. 00:14:01
I'm sure the hotel community and the General Assembly both send. 00:14:04
Stop. 00:14:07
That may, I think what happened to people on Wednesday. 00:14:09
The. 00:14:15
Just like, just like food and beverage, there's no. 00:14:17
There's no you. 00:14:21
Today, at least, there's uniform. 00:14:22
Innkeeper's tax. 00:14:25
That that's enabling that there's. 00:14:26
Well, you still have to go county by county to get. 00:14:29
To get food better. 00:14:33
Permission. 00:14:35
That, and that's always. 00:14:37
A bigger pot of money. 00:14:41
That been a few years. 00:14:43
Our total budget with. 00:14:46
27. 00:14:48
Of this 2800 rooms right now. 00:14:49
Our total budget. 00:14:52
At 6%. 00:14:53
Is 4 million. 00:14:54
Look for projects. 00:14:59
What's the Nexus they are looking for? Could an infrastructure improvement? 00:15:01
The wheelchair, that's what is. 00:15:06
Station is a survey about. 00:15:10
I shouldn't read. 00:15:13
We would. We would consider it. 00:15:16
And and and because because of these guys and I used this. 00:15:18
Use this example. 00:15:21
If there's a project that is going to. 00:15:24
Create significant. 00:15:29
Private investments. 00:15:32
And be and be a demand driver. 00:15:35
Well, one of the principles that we try to follow. 00:15:38
Have tried to follow is that. 00:15:40
The the asset that we are paying for remain publicly owned. 00:15:42
And so. 00:15:47
So that the idea of getting involved in a portion of the infrastructure costs. 00:15:49
To foster Prep. 00:15:54
Private investment. 00:15:55
Would work because we wouldn't necessarily. 00:15:57
Put the money in the hands of private development. 00:15:59
And so helping. 00:16:03
Help me create that environment that. 00:16:06
Even get a buffer situation. 00:16:08
That the that the perhaps of the private investment can happen. 00:16:10
Maybe. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Nathan up. 00:16:15
I think. 00:16:18
You mentioned in the beginning about Tunnel Hill. 00:16:18
That's that's. 00:16:21
That is an appropriate example. 00:16:22
Situation. 00:16:24
And that they need utilities to get to the property to develop. 00:16:26
Property. 00:16:29
Select eight to get 22 because I want to put a hotel. 00:16:31
Yeah, there. There's a philosophical hurdle to cross there if if we're just talking about a hotel. 00:16:36
Using. 00:16:44
Gatekeepers tax money from other hotels to incentivize. 00:16:45
Yeah. 00:16:49
Yeah. But that does start to create address pushback. There's there's other things, yeah. 00:16:52
Yeah, I totally understand. Yeah, I think there's restaurant that he's taught about good restaurants. There's other stuff. Yeah, 00:16:57
that was just used as an example. Yeah, Nick. 00:17:00
Mentioned that. 00:17:05
Yeah, getting infrastructure. 00:17:05
Improvements to a piece of property, that one. 00:17:07
Yeah, knowing that it's possible. 00:17:10
Now we did score and evaluate that property as part of our Conference Center. 00:17:13
Study process, yeah. 00:17:17
There were four sites. The first phase was do we have any business getting into? 00:17:20
This business of of mediums market and if so then what kind of building do we need to be competitive? 00:17:25
And what's that? Goalie locks? 00:17:31
Look like not too big, not too small. 00:17:33
And then? 00:17:35
And then we. 00:17:37
Knowing that, we invited. 00:17:38
Partners Municipal partners submit science. 00:17:40
So that that was one of Foresight's evaluated. 00:17:43
It was not just as the finest or the final. 00:17:46
Selection. 00:17:48
And and so. 00:17:50
Because at that time, the possibility of a conference facility added to the hotel. 00:17:52
Was was part of the discussion? 00:17:57
So right now. 00:18:00
Our efforts are concentrating. 00:18:01
On originally parcel sales. 00:18:03
In a new build. 00:18:06
Scenario. 00:18:07
Up where the tank farm was. 00:18:10
Where the railroad tracks kind of meet the. 00:18:12
The Levy. Clarksville South. 00:18:15
But because of development. 00:18:18
There we have now changed our preferred path to a Conference Center. 00:18:21
To be. 00:18:25
The holiday side. 00:18:26
You know, so we're working with Wayland group. 00:18:28
On that. 00:18:30
And still, we'll still have to work through what the. 00:18:32
The Conference Center ownership and operations scenario looks like. 00:18:36
That there's there's a lot of. 00:18:41
A lot of things we have to work through upon that. 00:18:43
But but we. 00:18:46
Planning for. 00:18:48
Future capital investment in. 00:18:51
A Conference Center. 00:18:54
And let's have that that is our our chart for that. 00:18:55
Good information. 00:18:58
I think the only other question that came up. 00:19:02
However, our short term rentals are they. 00:19:05
So captured in the innkeeper status. 00:19:09
Yeah. 30 July 19. 00:19:12
After a lot of fighting with their trade association. 00:19:15
The Department of Revenue reached. 00:19:19
With the platforms. 00:19:22
So whereas. 00:19:23
Than individual hotel property has to file. 00:19:25
Through their management group, usually a state. 00:19:28
Sales tax returned. 00:19:31
And they include in Cuba's tax law that. 00:19:33
So the short term rentals, that margin is not on the hosts. 00:19:36
It is on the platform. 00:19:40
To collect at the point of sale. 00:19:42
On the platform and then to admit to the Department of Revenue. 00:19:44
Track all of that by county and and provide that report into Dor and. 00:19:47
And yes, that money comes. 00:19:52
As part of our. 00:19:54
Funding flow. 00:19:55
From Dor to the county treasurer so. 00:19:56
So yeah, they are now included. 00:19:58
Question. We appreciate the information. Absolutely. 00:20:06
It's good information. 00:20:10
Thank you so much. 00:20:11
Anything else just followed. 00:20:12
No. So thank you all. Appreciate. Thank you. 00:20:14
OK, the next step we have Lisa, Bracio and Glenn. 00:20:17
Yeah. 00:20:21
Hi, everyone. Yeah, let me just introduce you real quick. 00:20:22
When was make my move purchase event? 00:20:28
He working with Lisa. 00:20:33
Business. 00:20:37
Which is one of the incentives we offer the. 00:20:38
OK program. 00:20:42
Great. So they're here to present what they've been working on. 00:20:43
OK. So I'm Lisa Russell. I'm the Entrepreneurship and Strategic Management Professor at Indiana University Southeast, and I work 00:20:47
with Nick. 00:20:51
At Nova Park I have post office hours up there a couple of times a week. 00:20:55
And I work with community members. We bring students in. 00:20:59
And I'm working with the group that's up there right now. 00:21:01
Actually, there's a lot of stuff going on up there. It's pretty cool. I walk in now and it's like there are people everywhere. 00:21:04
But for the last couple years I've been walking in there alone on words originally feeling. 00:21:09
But it's it's actually with with the new red wire up there and everything. And I didn't just say that out loud. Can we strike that 00:21:15
from the microphone? 00:21:19
I'm a retired police officer. 00:21:23
So working at Noble Park's been great, hosting the office up there, they felt that I was a good fit up there with my. 00:21:27
Entrepreneurship Background. 00:21:34
And recently Nick asked if I could work with Glenn. He's. 00:21:36
Working through Grant. 00:21:40
And I got really turned on by his product. 00:21:41
And so I'm not really going into the details of it, but. 00:21:44
We are working on some survey information. I've actually been out there. 00:21:47
Surveying individuals. 00:21:51
At gas stations, every time I pull up behind somebody that's got a wheel on the outside of their car, I'm like, yo-yo, can I talk 00:21:53
to you? And I'm talking to people and they're leaning in. They're asking me for a business card. What website do I go to? 00:21:59
And for the stuff that we do, we get out into the community and we talk to potential customers. 00:22:04
And when they start leaning in like that. 00:22:09
I'm coming back and telling what? 00:22:11
You have something. 00:22:13
You. You are on to something here. 00:22:14
They're not telling the price range and everything and they are still interested. 00:22:17
And that's the key. 00:22:20
That's what I tell him to look for when you're my students and people who are starting businesses. 00:22:22
If you get the people leaning in, if they close off and go interesting, interesting and they want to get out of there. 00:22:26
Then you got some pivoting to do. 00:22:32
But everyone I have talked to is leaning in. 00:22:34
Asking For more information. Do you have a card can I get on the website? 00:22:36
Is it ready now? 00:22:40
Those are those are the things I'm hearing. 00:22:42
With that said. 00:22:44
Glenn's gonna talk about the product. 00:22:45
And how that fits in. My job was to evaluate the worthiness of his business model and his product. 00:22:47
And. 00:22:54
Unequivocally, I can tell you that. 00:22:55
He is in the high. 00:22:57
Of the consumer market. 00:22:59
Which is going to sell because I looked at the models that carry that spare tire or spare tire. 00:23:01
Everybody's. 00:23:05
They're dishing out the money for those. We just stepped into it. 00:23:06
Jeep dealership. 00:23:09
With those $85,000 Jeeps and they are just signing contract after contract and those things are rolling out of the dealership. 00:23:10
I didn't even know this Jeep dealership was here. 00:23:17
And I'm driving. 00:23:20
Jeep Grand Cherokee. 00:23:22
And get one of those wheels, because if I want one of those. 00:23:24
Buy the Jeep for that. 00:23:29
Makes no sense, but it's 4. 00:23:31
So. 00:23:33
My job was to to really vet that out. 00:23:35
For for you guys. 00:23:37
And we're here to talk about. 00:23:39
That vetting the things that we've seen. 00:23:41
We're working on collecting actual numbers, but. 00:23:44
My experience is telling me we have a, we have a. 00:23:47
A winner here and. 00:23:50
Him moving forward with the grant and. 00:23:52
Becoming part of Noble Park. 00:23:54
I believe it's it's a strong. 00:23:56
Fit for for you guys, for us and. 00:23:58
Ford Nova Park. 00:24:01
So with that, I'm going to let you talk to Glenn about his idea. 00:24:02
Thank you for the opportunity to come out here and talk to you guys. I brought a few little. 00:24:07
How do you feel like things so you can see them? 00:24:12
Those are some of the. 00:24:13
The casting parts that I had made. 00:24:15
And then one of the mounds, this was another mount that I have for display so. 00:24:17
I have notes. I'm gonna read them. 00:24:22
I have been working on them as late as last night early. 00:24:24
You know, last night as a matter of fact, so. 00:24:28
I'm a veteran. 00:24:30
I'm an owner of. 00:24:31
MLC Innovations, LLC. 00:24:32
In Floyd County. 00:24:35
And I'm an inventor of a patent. 00:24:36
For the Tri axe mount platform. 00:24:39
The image here is from my patent. 00:24:41
And it it shows the collapsible mount. 00:24:43
With the center hub holding arms, contact mounts for the tire as well as center receiver. 00:24:46
That creates that modular platform. 00:24:52
I wanted to start there because it's not just a sketch or an idea. This is a protected invention. 00:24:54
That's not working on to turn into a real product. 00:24:58
Built here for Canada. 00:25:01
Like Nick said, I moved the point back to Floyd County. 00:25:03
I'm gonna make my move program. 00:25:05
I'm already starting with my business. 00:25:07
I'm here today to discuss. 00:25:10
You know the support of. 00:25:12
Floyd County is providing. 00:25:13
Continue access to Noble Park, the route and other forms of support that can help me move forward from the. 00:25:15
From the prototyping and initial product development. 00:25:20
Through the validation of sales so. 00:25:23
The simplest way to describe it is. 00:25:26
Tribex is It's a modular mounting platform for vehicles. 00:25:27
Like the Jeeps or? 00:25:31
Sprinter bands or. 00:25:32
Broncos that had a rear mounted spare tires, it gives them another place to mount things. 00:25:33
Can we go ahead 1 slide? 00:25:39
Spike mask if we go there. 00:25:41
Hold on. 00:25:44
Yeah, click. 00:25:46
Click that skip. 00:25:47
All right, the idea comes from an existing product. 00:25:54
You know, seeing existing products at at. 00:25:58
Vehicle shows, Jeep shows and everything. 00:26:00
Some of them I like. Some of them, They all had compromise, you know. 00:26:03
That there's trade-offs. A large tire mounted. 00:26:06
Flag holder that I initially saw. 00:26:09
It's balky. 00:26:11
It it's awkward to store, if you tried to go to a car wash you could just take it off and shove it in there. 00:26:12
And that it's inconvenient to remove. 00:26:18
Pitch mounted. 00:26:21
Rats prevent the tailgate from opening, swinging open. 00:26:22
And limiting your use of the towing capacity or. 00:26:26
Coming early. 00:26:29
Single-purpose accessories. 00:26:30
Solve, you know, one problem that doesn't create a long term value for the customer and necessarily repeat. 00:26:31
Customers for. 00:26:38
You know, sale. 00:26:39
Those are like the bike racks that you see on the back that allow you to open up the gate. 00:26:40
Vehicle owners. 00:26:45
Off roaders. 00:26:47
Campers. 00:26:49
And you know, various customers want this rugged. 00:26:50
One gear that's rugged and useful. 00:26:53
Sorry. 00:26:56
I'm a little. 00:26:57
Nervous. 00:26:58
I, I don't do this every day, your friend. So you're, you're doing great. You're doing great. Alright, so but they also they want 00:26:59
a rugged and useful tools, but they also want the the ability for. 00:27:04
To access the back, they want to be able to use the receiver or the hitch. 00:27:09
They want gear that can be temporarily installed on the vehicle. 00:27:13
Use at the lake, at the beach. 00:27:16
On the slopes. 00:27:19
When camping or Wheeling. 00:27:20
When they wanna use it. 00:27:21
But then. 00:27:23
Haven't removed a conveniently stored when it's not in use. 00:27:24
The triac solves that problem. 00:27:27
By, you know, creating that collapsible. 00:27:29
Mounting platform. 00:27:31
Around the rear spare tire, giving the customers useful. 00:27:32
Rear mounting platform. 00:27:35
While preserving the tail meat access in the hitch. 00:27:36
Slide please. 00:27:39
So this is an example. 00:27:41
I'll diversify it. 00:27:43
So it's the same platform. 00:27:45
AI helped me with this. This is in development. 00:27:47
I use my drawings to create them so. 00:27:50
If you want hit more one more over. 00:27:52
All right, the base offering. 00:27:55
Is the. Is the platform itself. 00:27:57
That's the black item there. 00:28:00
And the telescoping utility mask. That's the. 00:28:02
The vertical thing here. 00:28:05
I wanted to be careful about how I described this because the mask comes with the base offering. 00:28:07
Utility mass is the first excess saturated. 00:28:12
But it's not the product. It's not. 00:28:16
It's the initial accessory. The mounting platform is the product. 00:28:18
The utility mass is the first accessory because it's immediately useful. 00:28:22
It can be used to hold flag. 00:28:26
Hawaii A GoPro while you're on. 00:28:27
On the trail. 00:28:30
You can have the cell antenna booster when you're out camping. 00:28:31
There's a. It's threaded at the top there. 00:28:35
It but the the utility mass demonstrates the the versatility of the platform. 00:28:38
In a way that. 00:28:42
That consumers. 00:28:43
But they quickly understand. 00:28:44
And you can see that this one also. 00:28:47
Mouth notes but. 00:28:49
Goes to the ground, and that's one of. 00:28:51
The benefits of this over yeah, you take this off of the vehicle. 00:28:53
And place it in the on your campsite, use it on the roadside for emergencies. You can mount a flashing lights to it. So it's. 00:28:57
Yeah, it's. Yeah. You've seen those, those camp lights just like that. Yeah. 00:29:02
I was using this. 00:29:09
A few nights ago, working on my trailer, yeah. 00:29:10
And I had it out there working on it. I'll show you that pics, but. 00:29:12
I'll show you a couple things. So 4 chefs, I mean, we're just all kinds of stuff starts coming up. Can we hit the slide again? 00:29:16
There's an example. 00:29:22
And one more slide, please. 00:29:24
So the. 00:29:27
The accessory ecosystem, so the one foundation, multiple products. 00:29:28
The slide shows why the tracks is commercially different from other tire mounted. 00:29:32
Or single purpose accessories like a flag holder or a flag holder camp light. 00:29:35
The platform creates an accessory ecosystem. Customers start with the base platform, including the utility. 00:29:40
And they can have different accessories based off of their activities. 00:29:45
Accessories and development include the Triax load transfer bike carrier this is designing. I'm designing this to carry like the 00:29:49
weight of the E bike. You only need that. 00:29:53
Load transferring late in order to. 00:29:57
Carry heavy items. 00:30:00
So like for an example, it's gonna transfer the load down to the receiver. 00:30:02
So but it allows the gate to open and close. 00:30:06
That's part of the. 00:30:10
It's not tonight, you know. 00:30:11
So. 00:30:13
But. 00:30:15
Other ideas are the you know the angler work center with fold down table. 00:30:16
You see some of the fishing. 00:30:20
Items there. Snowboard, ski carrier same. Same platform here. Oops. 00:30:22
Move forward. 00:30:28
There, I won't touch it. No recovery boards. 00:30:31
Molly Panel. 00:30:35
The garage. 00:30:36
So this is a. 00:30:37
It's really important because it extends the most the same modular idea into the consumer's garage. 00:30:39
An accessory could come off of the vehicle. 00:30:46
And you can mount it onto the wall in the garage. 00:30:48
You could take your other IT thing out. 00:30:51
Mounted on the thing. 00:30:52
In the garage. 00:30:53
So. 00:30:54
It's the same quick attachment report. 00:30:55
I'm at it for two reasons. It gives the customer. 00:30:58
The value because they have the same vehicle interface and same. 00:31:00
In the same you know can support multiple activities and the second against the business repeat sale. 00:31:06
With new accessories. 00:31:11
Another SKU can can be sold to the same customer base. 00:31:12
The business model. 00:31:16
Model is not a one product and done, it's a base platform with the going family of accessories. 00:31:17
Slide please. 00:31:22
Help you there. 00:31:23
So it's not just a concept like I said, this is this is a patent invention. 00:31:25
Have working physical products, I have photos, I have engineering, you know, drawings. 00:31:29
And the ability to produce. 00:31:34
Triads platform and accessories are made from lightweight aluminum. 00:31:36
And stainless steel. 00:31:39
The goal is a rugged. 00:31:40
Rosen resistant product that fits on. 00:31:42
Jeeps and other opera vehicles. 00:31:44
With the rear expeller. 00:31:46
Rear spare tire method. 00:31:47
Rear mounted spare tire. 00:31:50
And and and it supports the lifestyle of. 00:31:52
Of whether you're a biker or Fisher or a snowboarder. 00:31:56
You can have all of those. 00:32:00
I also have the production capability. Right now I have a powerful. 00:32:01
I have a 45 by 33 foot pole barn with power. 00:32:05
I got all of the equipment to to start this fabrication. 00:32:09
Another interesting thing is the property that I'm at is. 00:32:14
The same property that C Line Engineering was at. This is a Floyd County business that that. 00:32:18
When the owner died. 00:32:23
The family split up the property. I bought half. 00:32:25
But that's where I'm at. 00:32:28
So I'd like to keep that whole. 00:32:29
Spirit of fabrication and, you know, engineering. 00:32:32
On that property. 00:32:35
And also have multiple business domains already secured, so I can start with the whole ordering you know? 00:32:36
The process. 00:32:43
Slide please. 00:32:45
So market viability. 00:32:47
So my market is large. 00:32:49
Almost $35 billion or $53 billion. 00:32:51
Is. 00:32:55
What Seema's saying? 00:32:57
Was spent on aftermarket accessories for vehicles. 00:32:59
OK, so. 00:33:02
The Triac's aimed for these customers or. 00:33:05
Flight, Lisa said. 00:33:08
I'm looking at these. 00:33:10
Individuals with. 00:33:11
Discretionary. 00:33:13
Hey Cortana, they can spend the money. 00:33:14
People that like to personalize their stuff, they like to do their outdoor activities. 00:33:16
And they spend the money. 00:33:19
Fill out that. 00:33:21
So. 00:33:24
Scroll down here. 00:33:25
And my go to market plan is is practical. I plan to demonstrate the product at national off road events. 00:33:28
There's big one happening in in Gatlinburg in August, I think it is. 00:33:34
Or a geek Jamboree. 00:33:38
10,000 jeeps that go there. 00:33:40
So the idea is to go there. 00:33:42
Put it out, see what people say. 00:33:43
Incorporate. 00:33:47
Can I hit one more? 00:33:48
So the projected sale price is $500 and that includes the the utility mask that you see right here this this. 00:33:50
Sad at brackets. 00:33:56
You know, based off of. 00:34:00
The current working model, the estimated parts material cost is about $277 when I add in $50.00 for labor. 00:34:01
It brings the total to $327. 00:34:08
That is about $173 of gross profit. 00:34:11
Or 30, almost 35%. 00:34:14
Gross profit. 00:34:17
Before overhead such as insurance and and. 00:34:18
Taxes. 00:34:21
My current build rate I can put these together about 1 1/2 units per hour. 00:34:22
Once all the material is ready and the build process is streamlined. 00:34:27
So you can see right there. 00:34:33
1 1/2 units per hour, about $750 in production revenue per hour and about $260 gross profit. 00:34:35
For production out before overhead. 00:34:42
That's what I'm looking at. 00:34:44
Slide please. 00:34:46
So my current plan is to finalize this 5 units that I have. 00:34:49
And put a couple of accessories together. 00:34:53
Finish the product photos. 00:34:57
Get the website QR code. 00:34:58
Ready so we can start getting. 00:35:01
Getting orders in place. 00:35:03
Later this year, I'm taking those. 00:35:05
5 minutes for the. 00:35:06
The road and. 00:35:08
Just collect feedback like I said. 00:35:10
After that, I'll be refining the platform. 00:35:12
Building a few more accessories like I mentioned. 00:35:14
And you know, again, I I just want to. 00:35:19
Focus on this. 00:35:21
This wall mounted accessory holder is like the garage, gets kind of crowded sometimes. I don't mind those. 00:35:22
I took my. 00:35:28
Thing of my fishing rods off, I have to now put them somewhere I can just hang them right there on the wall. 00:35:29
And then when I'm ready to go next time. 00:35:34
I have a number of other things. There were two other patents that. 00:35:37
My mom and dad died. 00:35:40
Back-to-back. Hey? Cortana moved away and it came back. 00:35:41
And serial entrepreneurs with serial patent, yeah, well, no, they're, they're directly in line with this whole ecosystem. 00:35:45
I mean, there's other other things that. 00:35:51
I mean you can Google. 00:35:54
Opposed. Search Google patent my name and then you'll see there are two out there. 00:35:56
They've since elapsed because I didn't pursue past that. 00:35:59
Provisional patent phase. I just got wrapped up with life so. 00:36:02
Yeah, so continued access to the Nova Park and the route and. 00:36:08
And uh. 00:36:12
I appreciate that. That's basically one more slide please. 00:36:15
And you can see this was the initial concept you could see when I drew it. 00:36:18
I was at a car show and I saw this this. 00:36:21
Flag holder and I'm like. 00:36:24
I didn't like what I did, why they did that. And so it's big, it's bulky, it didn't do any other things. And so I started coming 00:36:26
up with an idea and I drew that and this is. 00:36:31
This is my trailer I'm working on right now. 00:36:35
And. 00:36:38
That's I'm loading it up and heading out. 00:36:39
That's where it's gonna go. I got a refrigerator, solar panels, and. 00:36:42
Either did the coast to coast tour. 00:36:47
And that in 2020. 00:36:48
No, it's faster. 00:36:51
2025. 00:36:52
This time I was. I was. 00:36:53
In California, but. 00:36:55
That's my. 00:36:57
My product. 00:36:59
So I can watch this. 00:37:01
Very impressive. 00:37:02
You need to be there. 00:37:03
All the space where he can actually go, there are few things. 00:37:10
In our entrepreneurial ecosystem, and one of the ways to do that is to get him settled in a Noble Nova Park, which is. 00:37:14
Become kind of the hub. 00:37:20
Of our entrepreneurial ecosystem, which is kudos to. 00:37:23
You all for that? 00:37:27
Between Indiana University Southeast, the Indiana Small Business Development Center. 00:37:29
And Nova Park, where the route is now. 00:37:34
We are that group of people and we've got Doctor Ajan Kara working with me with. 00:37:37
With that whole group of people, I know our. 00:37:42
Chancellor out there is. 00:37:44
All in. 00:37:46
On on keeping us up there. 00:37:48
She wants me. 00:37:50
She wants me out there. She could be probably up there full time if if that's what it took. 00:37:52
But. 00:37:57
We need him up there. 00:37:58
And he? 00:37:59
He has a viable product. He needs to be plugged into our community. He's ready to manufacture. We can manufacture in the space 00:38:00
that he's in. 00:38:04
And he has nowhere to go. It's set through. 00:38:09
Scaling. 00:38:12
And adding efficiencies, that lowers his cost, that gives him a wider profit margin, that allows him to withdraw. 00:38:14
That's gonna be the key, right? 00:38:20
I'm Nancy and smiles right here. Yeah, I mean, I've already. 00:38:22
Yeah, some of the other. 00:38:24
You know everything's. 00:38:26
With nice stainless steel hardware, but. 00:38:27
There are certain. 00:38:29
Things that I'm I'm planning on doing preserving the patent integrity, but. 00:38:31
Changing certain things to. 00:38:36
Make more efficient. 00:38:37
Right. 00:38:39
But you've been a hell of a market because they actor. 00:38:39
Aftermarket for the auto industry is insane. 00:38:44
And we're looking. 00:38:50
Where you going minus is already on all the Jeep owners and you have one. 00:38:51
Down there you can take a look. It's Big Blue thing. 00:38:56
And uh. 00:38:58
It's like something. 00:39:00
They spend a lot of money just to make it. 00:39:03
There and I saw one with your Looney Tunes with. 00:39:05
Foghorn Leghorn. They're like, why that? 00:39:07
Yeah, so, yeah. So you're needing office space. 00:39:09
He needs whatever help he wants to help. As part of the Makemytrip, we're gonna be getting $5000. 00:39:13
Additional or doing what first, right? 00:39:22
Running business fine. 00:39:25
Working with IUS and we have that then we can get. 00:39:27
And then they also asking for office space, office at Noble right, which? 00:39:30
We do have available to to. 00:39:36
Determine whether to give that to them. 00:39:40
I think we. 00:39:42
Both those things are. 00:39:43
Available class right now. 00:39:44
Sorry, that brings yeah, if you guys see fit to help us. 00:39:47
Physical space right now we have Tim tweet out there. 00:39:52
Right. 00:39:55
The IUS has space upstairs since. 00:39:57
Just storage I think. 00:40:00
No, I'm not there in the air. Yeah, I'm good. I totally can't remember how much this this semester. I I am now the Bionic Woman. 00:40:02
Very close. I have shoulder and a head. 00:40:10
So I am so we have several offices still available in that building. 00:40:12
Still in process of working that route contract out so we really can. 00:40:18
It's ours to do. With what, Yeah. 00:40:23
Tim has added a couple people to his. 00:40:26
Payroll, and they have. 00:40:28
Decorated up there. They got cushy chairs there there. 00:40:30
It's it's really it's the the. 00:40:33
The park's coming to life, which we do. 00:40:36
You know you, you built, you do it one step at a time. You don't. 00:40:39
You know, just jump in with a punt attack, you know, having red wire. 00:40:42
Engaged and open and. 00:40:46
You've got life. 00:40:47
And the more bodies we can we can get in there, the more businesses that we can call the success story, the more people are going 00:40:49
to. 00:40:52
Start. 00:40:55
Oh yeah. 00:40:56
Yeah. 00:40:59
So are you interested in? 00:41:00
Spelling the selling the idea or scaling it yourself, what's the strategy? So great thanks. So. 00:41:04
Yeah, yeah. So like I said, I'm retired, but. 00:41:11
I did 22 years in the Air Force. 00:41:14
After that. 00:41:16
I've been in the healthcare space. 00:41:16
I've worked with two other companies. This is the. 00:41:18
I've had three jobs in my life. 00:41:20
But not counting the little miniature golf course, right? So. 00:41:23
You know, but. 00:41:27
I I didn't, I don't have, I don't golf. 00:41:31
I don't have a hog for retirement. 00:41:33
I met that point. 00:41:35
Where I don't want to continue to work and, and you know, like y'all, I mean, everybody says pursue your passion, right? I get so 00:41:36
wrapped up in doing my technical drawings and, and just start building the stuff that I lose track of time. 00:41:42
So my plan is to be. 00:41:48
To find a party with. 00:41:50
He said golfing. 00:41:51
By by putting these together, I could do things that I like to do these cross country trips and go places that I've never been see 00:41:52
people and then. 00:41:56
They like it, great if they don't. 00:42:00
OK, there's some people are going to like it because I've already gotten feedback. 00:42:01
They're they're the ones that say. 00:42:05
Dude, you should patent it 'cause this is the second version. The first version I did was. 00:42:06
They look really professional. 00:42:10
But. 00:42:12
Should have brought them a QR code that you can accept. 00:42:13
Because it shows the video that I created but. 00:42:16
Right now I don't have a plan long term. My plan is to produce those, take them and sell them and. 00:42:20
Hopefully people like them and buy them. 00:42:25
Someone stopped for me, you know, licensing fees and. 00:42:27
Produce it. That's probably the easier way for me and then I could tip it to the accessories, right. Looking at the higher profit, 00:42:31
I'm sure you got idea 234. I don't have a lot of ideas like you have on on this I'm writing. 00:42:36
Please talk into my head. 00:42:42
There's one that said fear me. 00:42:46
Right. Or hold my beard. 00:42:47
It's like the mount platform, like if you're out on the. 00:42:49
Wherever you need a place to put your beard, it's just gonna be a raft if you wanna put the beer with the. 00:42:51
Friday's talkboard on the back where they can write their name and know which. 00:42:56
Thing is there. 00:42:59
But. 00:43:01
All those little ideas pop in, I write them down and. 00:43:02
Some of them are gonna be easier, some of them are hard. 00:43:05
It's going again going to use that same. 00:43:07
Concept. I want to be able to maintain that access to the rear gate. 00:43:09
I want to be able to use the receiver. 00:43:13
I want something that's going to collapse and make it. 00:43:15
Easier store and I don't have another big thing in my garage sit in the corner. 00:43:17
So I don't know what it's going to lead. Right now I'm on this path. 00:43:22
I'm going whether you guys are coming or not. So as it grows, do we look at Angel investing for growth? Do we look at how do we, 00:43:26
how do we, what do we see that that's part of that entrepreneurial ecosystem. We have access through the route through the 00:43:31
Southeast, 2 lawyers to patent people to help him. 00:43:36
Do we want to renew those two provisional patents? Are they still available? What do we want to do with all that? 00:43:42
There's growth. 00:43:47
There's opportunity. 00:43:48
And that's what we're hoping to, to really allow him to nail down where. 00:43:50
Where that goes? 00:43:54
Does he? 00:43:55
Sell this to Jeep. 00:43:56
And go on to the next. 00:43:58
You cool thing that he doodles in his sleeve. 00:44:00
We don't know. I don't know where it's going to go. 00:44:03
But I I I didn't start it. 00:44:07
With anything in mind. 00:44:09
I started it because I. 00:44:10
I saw that. 00:44:12
Someone add something that likes? 00:44:13
Wondered why they made it that way and. 00:44:15
You know I. 00:44:20
And so I just started making. 00:44:21
And and that's something that I do just. 00:44:24
I kind of envisioned something. 00:44:26
And I use like. 00:44:28
You know SketchUp, which is the software online that's free and. 00:44:29
But I built. 00:44:33
Additions in houses. 00:44:35
Pool decks. I had everything drawn. 00:44:39
I go to Lowe's and sit. Here's my parts list. They deliver everything and I just. 00:44:42
Put it together for the drawing. Cut it. 00:44:45
Put it here. 00:44:47
How about together? 00:44:49
The whole casting. 00:44:50
You know, it was, it was because to be able to reproduce something. 00:44:51
The way it was made before, it was just black sheet metal welded together. First of all, trying to find someone around here to 00:44:55
Weld aluminum. 00:44:58
Necessarily easy. 00:45:02
So I went with the casting and it gave me the rigidity strength that I needed on this key part of parts that. 00:45:04
You know. 00:45:10
Because of the casting material, you have what they call a swoop on all of the vertical edges to be able to pull the casting out. 00:45:12
Lead the rent. 00:45:18
Because those aren't 90°. 00:45:20
Lines. 00:45:22
It was going to be difficult. I tried to get some. 00:45:23
Machine shops with. 00:45:25
You know, be able to. 00:45:27
Make a index and and. 00:45:28
And drill it for me. I ended up. 00:45:30
Just designing a boot. 00:45:33
Thinking, you know, just like something I saw went over, I was like. 00:45:34
That's what I need. 00:45:38
Like a woozy cup, you know, in a can. It's like, that's what I need. It's just. 00:45:39
Index my holes that way, put some bushings in there and I got my. 00:45:42
My lines, they're straight where I want. 00:45:45
And I can reproduce it. 00:45:47
And so imagine. 00:45:49
That one of those plans. 00:45:52
For growth ends up being a. 00:45:53
Manufacturing and distribution center right on the park. 00:45:56
OK, that's that's that's that's certainly one of the options. 00:45:59
If this is his baby, I'll just tell you what's to keep in. And that elbow right there. 00:46:03
Hey, Cortana, right and left. There's only one. 00:46:08
One piece that can be used for either side and I I saw something like that on it. 00:46:10
You know those wagons, they had the. 00:46:14
Folder on you know where you push the kids? 00:46:16
And they had plastic ones. I'm like, those are, that's what I kind of need. And so I started drawing it. 00:46:19
The way that it's built. 00:46:23
It'll only open 90°, it won't overextend. 00:46:25
It'll only close till it's 180°. 00:46:28
So perpendicular. 00:46:30
Carol. 00:46:33
So I mean there's just positive goes through it, so they can't some of the ideas. 00:46:33
Like I was talking about that. 00:46:38
That load transferring. 00:46:39
It's utilizing those pieces because again, I I don't want something big and bulky in the project. 00:46:43
That bike carrier is going to attach to the mount. 00:46:47
The center's mount point. 00:46:50
It's going to transfer the weight. 00:46:52
Higher the the pitch. 00:46:54
Allowing me to slide on and off. 00:46:55
But. 00:46:58
It's utilizing the sun. 00:47:00
Fold it up. 00:47:01
And put it on that mount wall mount. 00:47:03
Now you have the bike rack that's not a big because I have a bike rack that's really big. It's sitting on the floor of my garage 00:47:05
training. 00:47:08
This is. 00:47:11
It's transformative. 00:47:14
The administrative space or the the space, obviously you're going to be making these. 00:47:15
Better at A room. 00:47:19
Uh, an office and double park and in the. 00:47:20
Now, because she's got a continuing fracture in his place, right? So what's? 00:47:23
What does the the space that? 00:47:27
At Nova Park right now, the Administrative Space enable unit. 00:47:29
To do other than well, the networking with the, well, that's a, that's a big one for me. 00:47:32
It's because you have a community. I'm not. 00:47:36
I'm not a wet, I work in IT, but I'm not a web. 00:47:39
God, I don't. 00:47:41
Make websites now I can. 00:47:42
Hey somebody. 00:47:44
But there might be some other people that might benefit from it. 00:47:45
May be able to shape. 00:47:47
You know, go to the web UX or whatever to. 00:47:49
Website. Sorry. 00:47:51
Created this type. Do it and walk through it. Maybe they can help guide. 00:47:53
The the networking is probably the biggest thing for me. 00:47:58
When it comes to the. 00:48:02
You know, no park in the route. 00:48:03
Legitimacy in his. 00:48:05
Business Center, where he's where he started. 00:48:07
I guess you're not gonna see. 00:48:10
When he's talking to people about. 00:48:12
About where his business is located. Here's my card. 00:48:14
North Park Innovation Center. 00:48:17
It's it's the idea of of Omni business. 00:48:19
And housing and business. And where his center headquarters are. 00:48:22
In his early stages. 00:48:25
This facility. 00:48:28
From what? It's all you don't have a facility that I would use brake band saws and drill presses and other. I'm in my gorilla 00:48:30
leash. 00:48:32
I was. 00:48:35
Yeah, I'm, that's great. I mean it's great and there are a lot of people that do that successfully. But again, I'm not flying over 00:48:37
partners. There is to help people. 00:48:41
Make that transition. 00:48:45
Universally mixed way. 00:48:46
And so it it offers, it offers all of that, but the connections, the. 00:48:49
Access. 00:48:53
You know that that constantly be surrounded by those people who are innovating. 00:48:54
That problem, Tim, what do you think? 00:48:58
Him comes in and says hey, you know, I think. 00:49:00
It's, you know, maybe you've got to think about, you know. 00:49:03
Let's go talk to my friend. He's got he's got one. Let's give him a call. You know you've got this whole marketing support 00:49:06
ecosystem wants to get on had. 00:49:10
Get out of the media and I. 00:49:14
What's better than handing out this is Scarlet says your address Innovation Pkwy Exactly, exactly. 00:49:17
It's it's. 00:49:24
This unpleasant in the name and I'll see you. 00:49:25
That that means midlife crisis. 00:49:27
Like, you know, I built that first one and I made this video and and. 00:49:33
And then? 00:49:38
And I bought a car and it has an MLC fund. 00:49:39
And but that's where it came from. It's like a midlife prices now, you know? 00:49:42
That's really amazing, but my girlfriend calls it. 00:49:48
Mid-life celebration. 00:49:51
Love it. 00:49:52
So we have. 00:49:53
2 Two things to. 00:49:55
The first is. 00:49:57
Providing the protection here. 00:50:00
It means about. 00:50:03
Is the $5000 supplemental was in startup that was part of the make part of the department? 00:50:05
Yeah, the second would be. 00:50:12
Opposite. 00:50:14
Provide office space for what? 00:50:16
Justin Brown, I can help. 00:50:19
Producer release or something of a silly. 00:50:21
So on the 5000, that was part of the Make My Move initiative. 00:50:25
How do we? 00:50:29
Of funding for that. 00:50:31
Do we is that do we already have the budget? 00:50:33
Yes. 00:50:35
That's been so long, we already have it. 00:50:36
So we don't. 00:50:39
We're not going to edit. We're not right. Well, it's it's out about it. 00:50:40
But it's already. It's already. 00:50:45
Yes, I think we had office space allocated to our. 00:50:47
Yes, yeah. 00:50:52
Well, I think we're flying, saying hey, take one of those. Well, I went for the. 00:50:54
Just 5000 parts but I was more focused on just to try to figure out. 00:50:58
Funny, it's already there. Yeah, we have the money. 00:51:03
So as part of that. 00:51:07
There's a longevity or. 00:51:10
Business start. 00:51:12
And and the requirements to receive that were department. 00:51:15
With this business was working with IUS. I believe that. 00:51:19
Startup. 00:51:23
Go through business plan, financial, marketing people and proof of concept and then present to us. OK, so and then sorry for all 00:51:25
the questions, just gotta go back in time. 00:51:30
To remember all the steps. 00:51:35
Is that a? 00:51:37
One time love, some pain or OK? 00:51:40
Yes. 00:51:42
Upon approval. 00:51:43
OK. 00:51:44
Anybody else have questions? You asked questions I was going to ask. Yeah, I'm just. 00:51:47
So the pronunciation is essentially what was prescribed to get the file pals. 00:51:51
It's quite amazing as we start to finalize the business final I've been working with. 00:51:55
Small business development that was nameless. 00:52:03
It's one of his questions, one of the counselors that is looking at them. 00:52:06
Yeah, I was working on the presentation and everything, trying to get that done before the business plan, but. 00:52:13
I have all the information, that's what I was. 00:52:19
Part of the president. 00:52:21
So. 00:52:22
I don't think we need to make it. 00:52:23
Contingent upon finalization of the business plan. 00:52:25
So I would. 00:52:28
And you guys, we have more discussion. That's fine. Would that entertain a motion? 00:52:30
To. 00:52:33
To approve the $5000. 00:52:35
That was part of the Make My Move program contingent to fly. 00:52:39
The final step of submittal of the. 00:52:42
Business plan. 00:52:45
Yeah, so. 00:52:46
Second marriage, second by Danny. Any other questions we asked him on it? 00:52:48
I just a quick comment that. 00:52:54
Great presentation. 00:52:56
Because I thought it was. 00:52:57
It's interesting to me because. 00:52:58
I like trucks and jeans. 00:53:00
All right. 00:53:03
Did you know other questions? 00:53:05
All those in favor say aye aye. 00:53:07
Motion carries. OK, then the second part. 00:53:09
Second part is office space, yeah. 00:53:12
I would think we would be just to draft something on that, right? 00:53:14
No so well. 00:53:19
Kevin Stockhill So you have an interest. 00:53:21
Please. 00:53:24
Got in between a root. 00:53:27
Management agreement. 00:53:28
I don't know what space you're talking about. Is it part of that IUS space or is it not part of the IUS space? 00:53:30
And not the IUS. 00:53:36
Building a fast-paced No, I assume it's obviously. 00:53:38
And in. 00:53:43
Don't they have two space I think? 00:53:46
So we. 00:53:48
Earmarked 2. 00:53:49
Offices in the group agreement to be set aside for. 00:53:51
I don't believe in that you have any kind of. 00:53:59
It's just we're. 00:54:07
But the two. 00:54:09
The two that are in the roof agreement. 00:54:11
Does that include the Tim tweet space? 00:54:14
That's separate. 00:54:16
So I think regardless of whatever the answer is, we need to figure out. 00:54:18
Wait a we have a pending route. 00:54:21
Agreement that we tabled. 00:54:23
It's the first thing. 00:54:24
Right to know what to do and then? 00:54:25
We'll figure out what inventory we have come back and figure out. 00:54:28
How to do it? 00:54:31
I don't know that it's gonna be. 00:54:32
But we have specs. There is unless there's space, whether it's through. 00:54:35
The agreement agreement are 30 whatever. 00:54:42
So that would entertain a motion to allow the use. 00:54:46
Of of an office space. 00:54:49
What building was that one? 00:54:54
OK. 00:54:57
That's go ahead. 00:54:59
I'm I'm not sure you need help with this, new or not I mean. 00:55:01
It said IUS. 00:55:04
Well, I'll just. 00:55:05
On the set, you're. 00:55:07
Leasing something to a private entity. 00:55:08
I know nobody wants to hear it, but normally it's the same as a sale. 00:55:11
I mean, I don't want to get too appraisals and figure out what that is. 00:55:14
OK. The route is a management contract that's managing your space and that's not signed that's. 00:55:18
I think the cinnamon is there that you you. 00:55:25
May have some space and you'd like to try to figure something out. OK, that has to read it. Let's wait and wait. 00:55:27
That's fine. Figure out. 00:55:32
There will be space, we just. 00:55:33
Yeah, and and and the root contract's not. 00:55:36
Like we don't know if we have. 00:55:38
Right, so patching. 00:55:41
Yeah, OK. 00:55:43
So we we won't act on that at this meeting. 00:55:45
But we'll work through that once we. 00:55:48
Get these other pieces on. 00:55:50
Action Orders. 00:55:51
And then next month would. 00:55:52
Would it be jumping the shark to say? 00:55:55
IUS already. 00:55:58
It's located there. 00:56:01
And they're free to. 00:56:03
And use some of their space. 00:56:04
So that's why I was interested what space it was I'm doing with that. 00:56:08
I'm trying to remember. So you mentioned you don't necessarily have an agreement for that space. 00:56:11
I have to go back to work because. 00:56:16
OK. 00:56:19
I I just don't think we're getting anything further other than we need to go back, Nick, myself. Somebody needs to go back and 00:56:20
figure out what we have and how best to do what we have in place. Yeah, I'm with you, Dave. Yeah, that's fine with me. Yeah, well, 00:56:24
I mean, I don't know how quickly you want to get things. 00:56:28
Said how you went on that but. 00:56:33
I would think by next month we can. 00:56:35
Have all this reset we gave our 10s through his development. We have a development agreement with 10. 00:56:37
Separately. 00:56:45
Directory. So that's how we did. 00:56:46
Move the route for them. We we can we can determine that. 00:56:52
Yeah. And there's, yeah, there's mail facilities out there and there's IUS phase. 00:56:57
Rights and mail facilities are still there if you wanted to go ahead. 00:57:01
You know, update things of that nature with that's the roots managing those, right? 00:57:05
But yeah, I think we're all on board. 00:57:10
Just need to figure out. 00:57:16
Yeah, we want you out there that you think it would. 00:57:17
You benefit from it. 00:57:19
It'll happen, which is trying to figure out how to. 00:57:21
Definitely. 00:57:24
Yeah, I I do have the pop already so I have access to the parking. 00:57:26
Good at this time, this is in the general space Good. I do appreciate the time. 00:57:31

It followed up with. 00:58:01
John Locke yesterday. Don's actually. 00:58:02
Volunteered to kind of help spearhead. 00:58:05
I guess he's chairing the. 00:58:07
Yeah, the effort this year. 00:58:09
And they're actually asking us for a $1500 sponsorship. 00:58:12
They there was different. 00:58:16
Amounts to the 1500. 00:58:18
Specifically asking for from. 00:58:20
That from the counties. 00:58:24
And this would actually be something we would. 00:58:25
Recommended. 00:58:28
Right. And it would have to go to the Yeah, Mort. 00:58:30
Since we have finally. 00:58:32
Yeah. 00:58:36
I think it it it's pretty well received and they've already got a pretty nice. 00:58:39
Schedule of events that. 00:58:43
There was an update which you all don't have. 00:58:45
First was having a day that they had. 00:58:49
Symposium. 00:58:56
Start up. 00:58:58
Yeah. So they're, they're getting a lot of. 00:59:03
Folks interacting with this. 00:59:05
It's our name out there. 00:59:10
I think it's. 00:59:12
Sort of a motion to put, yeah. 00:59:12
My. 00:59:16
We move this to the commissioners for the $59. 00:59:19

Yeah, I see that. 01:00:19
They normally you have it on there. 01:00:20
For Lego 3. 01:00:23
You know, I went through just kind of like get a life brand aware how this works. 01:00:24
They go through with substantial completion. 01:00:27
Even though. 01:00:30
You've got a tenant moved in. 01:00:31
They put their checklist, the punch list, together. 01:00:34
Any little thing that needs to be correct is. 01:00:37
And can you state paper that's pictures of some of those items? 01:00:39
You know there's modeling on that. 01:00:42
That model small thing. 01:00:44
Along with the week. 01:00:46
Things like that, but that would be great. 01:00:48
For further discussion. All in favor say aye aye. 01:00:50
You pubs. 01:00:54
I did receive 4 subliminals from that construction or Mon. 01:01:02
Charlie, pray. 01:01:08
I had he had the resolution identified. 01:01:10
Scared staff. 01:01:15
Look for appointment on 3rd member. 01:01:21
Does anyone in particular want to? 01:01:36
This is for. 01:01:38
But it's just yeah, yeah, the next item is gonna be the demo one. 01:01:40
Yeah, this is for the actual book RPG, not each other queue. 01:01:43
The commissioners did sign the. 01:01:50
Resolution that we drafted. 01:01:52
Connecting the call. 01:01:54
Yes, that's what the point they're saying. 01:01:55
Yes, I just want to make sure. 01:01:58
We're on the same page. People are good. 01:02:00
And then we'll come back whenever the committee comes back. 01:02:02
Evaluates and scores of. 01:02:05
Back makes up. 01:02:07
Recommendation. 01:02:09
Well, they turn into a. 01:02:10
Negotiation period? What's that? 01:02:12
So yeah, yeah, there's a whole other step after that, but yeah. 01:02:14
I'm not here. 01:02:25
How funny would be the best way some fees does quite big, Commissioner. It's telling government, yeah, that's kind of around, 01:02:26
yeah. 01:02:30
Some laws on there now. 01:02:35
Bob myself. I mean, you want to do it. Sad. 01:02:37
Hey, I mean, it doesn't matter. I mean, if you don't, I mean, I, I'll, I'll do it. 01:02:41
If whoever wants you to do it, OK. 01:02:46
I do have a question just out of curiosity. 01:02:56
Garmongue, are they? 01:02:59
Who just called? 01:03:01
You know there. 01:03:02
Never heard of the chief Achilles steel? 01:03:04
Thank you so much for that being home sounds. 01:03:07
What do you mean market or yes, that sounds very familiar. She. 01:03:09
Registered president of the council in Washington County. I think so. 01:03:13
Work with radius. 01:03:17
OK, OK. That's how I know today. 01:03:18
We've engaged Armand before. 01:03:21
Yeah, and we can move forward. So I just did. 01:03:23
Not trying, just asking. I think I recognize the other freaking ****. 01:03:27
So we don't think there's. 01:03:34
Well, I don't know what the Commissioner said. You may as well have. 01:03:36
In our resolution, yeah. 01:03:42
So we just identified the person. Yeah, well. 01:03:47
Yeah, undominate, Rich, Thank you. Thank you. 01:03:50
Have any friends? 01:03:54
Member of the committee. It's real similar to me to be volatile. 01:03:57
They're saying they'll say thank you, Cortana. 01:04:02
You know. 01:04:06
Hurry up and get that. 01:04:08
Motion carries. 01:04:14
OK demo. 01:04:16
So this side on. 01:04:17
I I put out a request to. 01:04:20
10 different programs. 01:04:23
But you got one quote. 01:04:25
I have one statement today for too busy for my students. 01:04:27
So Connor was the only one. 01:04:33
Never respond to CVS didn't respond. That's interesting. Yeah. 01:04:35
There's one. 01:04:39
Airport is 100 and. 01:04:44
The estimates of the architect was 38,000. Yeah, yeah. 01:04:46
I'm gonna flashback to the health department. I just. 01:04:54
Which so I. 01:04:59
I I was under the impression that this was gonna be under. 01:05:03
As Holly, to do that, I'm just asking for a request for those. 01:05:05
I rewards I could. 01:05:11
Attempt to do more quotes still and follow up with some of these people to get a. 01:05:14
The commissions will be the ones going into. 01:05:20
Right couch. 01:05:22
You guys are seeking direction on how new led to proceed, whether we would like to go ahead with this? 01:05:27
I think we do. 01:05:33
Our our challenge. 01:05:34
Is is the the ready funds, the ready funds and payment for those that don't know we were provided. 01:05:36
Additional 500 and. 01:05:43
16 Yeah, like weeks ago. 01:05:44
But I've got already its last meeting. 01:05:48
The issue is the timeline for. 01:05:51
Initial draw, well I cannot get an answer from ABC or River Hills on the flexible and they are with that so we wanted to get. 01:05:54
Something that we can. 01:06:04
It's certainly a question for. 01:06:05
Of that August 21st. 01:06:09
At that morning and this was the thing we identified as think we could be done. 01:06:11
No, that's at. 01:06:20
It is so. 01:06:21
OK, hello. 01:06:24
Hello, my thought was that. 01:06:26
Perhaps I could try to get a couple more? 01:06:29
Seattle. 01:06:31
Can't get a better quote. 01:06:35
Hey Cortana, this recommendation of commissioners. 01:06:37
See what? 01:06:40
At the same time, it would definitely be cheaper if we could include it in the box. 01:06:43
I'm sure that the Satan's there, we'd be there, but there would be no we don't to lose the money, we have to. 01:06:48
Then you can't use it for soft cost. 01:06:54
I I would recommend trying to get at least one more. 01:07:00
Hopefully too. 01:07:03
And then? 01:07:04
It's not allowed. If not, it needs to be sent out in the field tables. 01:07:06
Fairness to Canada. 01:07:12
They need an opportunity to resubmit as well or withdraw their. 01:07:13
Because everybody's got their number. 01:07:17
You know I'm. 01:07:24
How do you kind of house to put it back out to everybody again? Leave. 01:07:25
Yeah, 3. 01:07:31
Yeah. 01:07:32
And then? 01:07:33
We could always do us. 01:07:34
I mean, you can try to get a quick turn around and we can do a special meeting. 01:07:35
To get approved. 01:07:39
Passed on. 01:07:40
Assembled a week away. 01:07:42
So the idea was to get this. 01:07:44
Awarded. Recommended. 01:07:47
For award. 01:07:49
Go to the next commissioner meeting. 01:07:50
Get them under contract, get them mobilized so we can show some money being. 01:07:53
Right. 01:07:56
That's what we talked to, so it's revealing their quote. Does that cause issues? That's what I'm at. 01:07:58
It's the. 01:08:03
Yeah, I mean, I think they're public. 01:08:09
I think the Republic, right, It's all publicly correct, yeah. 01:08:11
So, Justin. 01:08:15
What's the public works requirements for procurement? 01:08:17
We we try to do it with an RFQ, right? 01:08:23
Yeah, we can send it because we we. 01:08:27
Totally anticipated. 01:08:29
We just requested to close it. 01:08:31
Let me just take a more. 01:08:33
Expected it to be less than 50. 01:08:38
Is there a? 01:08:40
You have to get a certain amount of quotes. 01:08:41
Provision. 01:08:44
No, no. Well, not under 250,000, right? You've got to keep it up. 01:08:46
Forbid. 01:08:51
You have to get but our. 01:08:52
You you're supposed to get. 01:08:54
You can just go and get clothes and yeah, you should. 01:08:58
I think you have to reach out to at least three. 01:09:02
Well, they're, they're, they're certainly others that can reach out to. I mean, they're. 01:09:08
There's. I mean, I see your list. 01:09:12
With others, we can. 01:09:14
Got no advice. 01:09:17
Last request. So for the ready money this needs to be started or does it need to be substantially? 01:09:20
So the thought was. 01:09:27
You at least get a mobilization draw. 01:09:28
They may not physically have. 01:09:32
Starting with, they're logged in. 01:09:34
Yeah. 01:09:35
And we still have. 01:09:39
Don't let him. 01:09:42
I've been seven days. 01:09:44
And we need to invite at least three quotes. 01:09:46
Let's try to look for the language play in the next step. 01:09:50
So. 01:09:55
The commissioners be. 01:09:57
I'm at six. 01:09:59
Of July, July. 01:10:01
So wait, I haven't put out another request in half the seven days, but then we would. 01:10:03
So he told me that. 01:10:09
Monday 1st. 01:10:12
For 6:30 Monday. 01:10:15
Yeah, this happens. That's OK. 01:10:18
That's OK, I've seen it. Because 4th of July Saturday, yeah. 01:10:20
That's all right. 01:10:24
I think did they move it to? 01:10:25
Tonight. 01:10:27
That's OK. 01:10:28
So we can and it doesn't get. 01:10:30
That gives me. 01:10:33
Good, you could. 01:10:34
There's a joint meeting on the 15th as well. 01:10:36
Is it that schedule? 01:10:38
Is that right? 01:10:40
That writing everything is that. 01:10:41
Yeah, 6 month. 01:10:42
I don't know. I've still. 01:10:44
Yes, they're all open to the public, and yes, we've done all. 01:10:47
Right, but. 01:10:51
If you want to request him, we can reject all quotes submitted right? So we can redo. 01:10:52
What we're just talking about. 01:10:56
Just gonna send mail. 01:10:58
Think sometimes seven days before. 01:10:59
You asked for the bag. 01:11:02
Yeah, I think it's gotta be worth trying to get. 01:11:09
I guess the question is, do we want to try to make the? 01:11:19
She had to show movement of money by the end of August. 01:11:23
Is that right? 01:11:26
August 21st is when. 01:11:29
August 21st. 01:11:31
Document that invoices and stuff are needed by representative. 01:11:32
March 17th. 01:11:46
Let's go into that private no? 01:11:49
Next week is. 01:11:56
Is it? It's a test week because you got. 01:11:58
40s last being observed on July 3rd. 01:12:00
Which is attractive? 01:12:03
Give me a bunch of life. 01:12:14
6. 01:12:15
Alright, I mean it is a demo. 01:12:20
It it it it's a little different 'cause you've been just doing demo. Can you make? 01:12:24
Phone calls and say. 01:12:27
Are you interested in all? If you are, submit. 01:12:30
Instead of. 01:12:33
An e-mail that might get lost. 01:12:33
And the deadline for the submissions back should be the meeting. 01:12:35
Recording 3 minutes. 01:12:39
That's all. The second it could be due back to seven. 01:12:41
But don't. 01:12:44
So we have to meet. 01:12:46
In advance, Well, do we do we need to provide a recommendation or we can have a discussion as to? 01:12:47
Issues. Yeah, we don't have to. 01:12:53
As of right now, we don't have choice, so we don't accept the one right. 01:12:57
Well, if that's the case, then having it back 7th is. 01:13:01
That's that's bad. 01:13:04
You hate anytime you submit a quote or a bit. 01:13:06
We hate to have to come back. 01:13:11
From a holiday weekend. 01:13:13
Do that by. 01:13:15
It gives them that money to finalize their number. 01:13:17
Does that make sense? 01:13:21
Oh yeah, yeah. 01:13:23
Yeah. 01:13:28
So. 01:13:29
I guess. 01:13:31
We are looking. 01:13:34
Suggest a motion to reject. 01:13:37
The bid proceed. Thank you, Reed. 01:13:41
To allow Nick to. 01:13:44
Solicit quotes again. 01:13:46
That will be due on July 7th at the. 01:13:50
Commissioner B. 01:13:53
Family Commissioner. 01:13:54
4 How about 4:00 Four o'clock 20. 01:13:56
That day, whenever. 01:14:00
Whatever that would be good for you. 01:14:01
To get it ready. 01:14:03
So but do that day. 01:14:06
You're just scratching all the time. 01:14:08
To hopefully allow us to secure. 01:14:12
More than one quote. 01:14:14
Yeah. So that'd be, I'd entertain that motion. 01:14:18
That's not I'll make the motion. 01:14:21
OK, go ahead. 01:14:23
Second. Second by Daniel. 01:14:25
Any further discussion on that? I do like the idea. 01:14:27
Is is it acceptable? 01:14:29
To also make phone calls. 01:14:31
Yeah. 01:14:33
For documentation, no no no, make e-mail. It's in the e-mail for sure. 01:14:35
But also called any patterns that you are, I'm gonna give you a list. 01:14:40
Pick it up, I'll provide you. 01:14:46
Any further discussions? 01:14:49
Local favorites say aye. 01:14:50
Motion carries. Yeah, I'll send you a list this afternoon. 01:14:52
Before we adjourn a couple of. 01:14:58
We have the ribbon cutting. 01:15:03
One July. 01:15:05
I think it's a story has. 01:15:13
Period of the invite, said the government. 01:15:16
Together, we have three people waiting on confirmation. Yeah, he's coming, I mean. 01:15:18
Town, the town. Yeah, he's coming 3:30 to 4:30 and they were going to say this thing starts at 3:00. 01:15:22
OK, thanks. 01:15:28
He's 36 technically, but. 01:15:29
Because there's like. 01:15:32
I have 40 minutes or whatever of the. 01:15:33
Ribbon cutting and speechifying and whatever. And then there's a. 01:15:36
What you call a speaking self self-guided tour through the bill. 01:15:41
We're going to have employees. 01:15:44
Don't answer questions about it so you can move through fast. 01:15:46
You can stop. 01:15:49
And sample some of the beer we've rooted. 01:15:50
From. 01:15:52
Get we took to space. 01:15:53
Yeah. 01:15:56
Fiscal Tacos is catering and Fistful of Ale. 01:15:58
Root beer that we gave that the yeast had different fluids face. 01:16:01
So you'll have some sweet spirit. 01:16:06
Space, space, space. They call it Red Dragon. 01:16:08
So that's that. That's the 20th. It's also happens to be the. 01:16:12
Anniversary of the Apollo 11 moon landing. 01:16:16
Just worked out that way. 01:16:19
Now this is. 01:16:22
Probably. 01:16:25
What happened? But. 01:16:26
I'm invited Vice President Pence. 01:16:27
And after months of saying. 01:16:31
That date's not going to work. You can't make it. 01:16:34
They actually reached out yesterday with some additional questions about the event. 01:16:36
They don't. He gets surprised. He gets surprised. We don't know. 01:16:41
But we know Governor Prong. 01:16:44
That would be pretty. They don't get no problem. 01:16:48
Bob, you'll be there, right? 01:16:50
Absolutely so So because we've got the tour and everything that goes with it. 01:16:54
We're keeping the speeches down. No, I was followed up by the. 01:16:59
I was led to the Vice President. 01:17:02
The important people are gonna be there. Yeah, yeah, yeah. 01:17:04
So we have. 01:17:14
Like the the the groundbreaking, we had a lot of people and. 01:17:16
I want to fish off so I mean I'm speaking, but because we're. 01:17:20
Really tight on time. 01:17:22
It's basically just going to be our CBO. 01:17:24
Our Our Space Group president, John Bellinger. 01:17:27
The governor that's. 01:17:31
That's about it. That's awesome. 01:17:32
That's great because we wanna, we gotta keep it going. No, no, no. And you guys are, you want all the logistics? That's fantastic. 01:17:34
We're unveiling the big statue that's going to be covered. 01:17:38
Yeah, we're gonna be on that and. 01:17:43
Yeah, I said that. I know it's. 01:17:45
I was vetted and played it through. 01:17:51
I'll get my list. 01:17:54
I was like, this is serious stuff here, don't don't answer wrong. At first we were gonna allow any. 01:17:56
Foreign nationals. 01:18:07
But now we've got. 01:18:11
Kind of areas roped off we're gonna. 01:18:12
Closing curtains on some things so we totally can't have. 01:18:14
I don't know that we would expect any. 01:18:17
You know Chinese spies, but you know we're prepared for us. 01:18:20
Yeah, that was fine kind. 01:18:25
I believe there go to I'm supposed to be continuing education, but I'm good. 01:18:27
And I'll be there, OK? It's good, yeah. 01:18:31
Yes, this one. 01:18:33
No, no, no, no. 01:18:35
Yeah, I'll make it rich. Yeah, that's not being in contact about it. I was just waiting on the time. Last time we spoke, it was. 01:18:36
Up in the air for the morning or. 01:18:43
Yeah, you know, and Aaron, how should I just really hated for her not to be able to come but. 01:18:45
This workout or she might come early in the morning. 01:18:49
So we'll, we'll do a private tour for her if she has to come over. 01:18:53
Yeah, she was there for the grandma. She wants him. 01:18:57
With a broken foot. 01:19:00
OK. 01:19:05
Anything else? The dedication class? OK, real quick. 01:19:06
So we've. 01:19:11
We were talking about, I think Commonwealth science is. 01:19:12
Paying for this dedication black I think they're they're making for free, I think but. 01:19:14
But it should be a dedication plot not for red wire, but for. 01:19:20
Floyd County and building #5 and whatever. So there's been some discussion around about what names are on it and what does it say 01:19:24
and my recommendation. 01:19:29
From. 01:19:34
My from this chair is that it literally says like Nova Park building #5 at the top of the plaque dedication date. So we're not. 01:19:36
This is not something we're going to do on. 01:19:42
July 20th. We'll put this up later. 01:19:45
Dedication. 01:19:48
It's got. 01:19:49
You know county officials names on it. 01:19:50
And then I think there will be. 01:19:54
Rovar, CEO. 01:19:56
Just three people there. Well, I. 01:19:58
But I think there ought to be a phrase or something about dedicated to something. 01:20:00
Fostering innovation in Floyd County, or you know, you know, something like that. 01:20:04
And there's a good spot outside the building. 01:20:09
That I think would be good. I could send around a picture. But anyway that I think what I'd recommend and it's right under a light 01:20:13
under the covered area up front. 01:20:16
Great. It's kind of odd shape, but. 01:20:20
I've been, as I travel, I've taken pictures of dedicated information, blacks around the country, you know, just to get mad. Yeah, 01:20:23
yeah. Just get some ideas. And so I'll take a crack at maybe some. 01:20:28
A sentence or two, you know. 01:20:33
Yeah, all you guys, the long lines of dedicated to fostering innovation then. 01:20:35
I like totally enterprise. 01:20:40
I think that's something. Keep it. 01:20:43
Succinct. Yeah. Yeah, 'cause it's, it's our plot is that. No, it's fantastic. So I know. 01:20:45
OK, one question, I have those do we? 01:20:50
Do we put anything about? 01:20:53
IUS on there because I I don't know whether. 01:20:55
They'll be there and. 01:20:57
Five years, you don't know. I don't know. 01:20:59
You could you could say. 01:21:02
Fostering innovation. 01:21:04
And education? That's a nod to. 01:21:06
Without specifically saying you don't, you don't know if they're going to. Yeah, it's it's a tough one. Well, there were going to 01:21:09
be 3 names from Red Wire. 01:21:12
They're down, down further, you guys are. 01:21:16
My vision of the plot, you guys, said Billy. 01:21:19
Yeah. 01:21:22
Why don't you take a sip? 01:21:23
OK, we can. 01:21:25
It will look at the workshop middle decision. 01:21:27
OK. 01:21:29

Thank you, Lena Sewer. 00:02:36
Without absentee. 00:02:38
Leading the charge of one code too deep into it, right? We did meet with. 00:02:41
Folks at the town rebel. 00:02:46
And some questions about. 00:02:49
Capacity. 00:02:52
My mother, her. 00:02:53
Proposed expansion would. 00:02:56
Allow the town to still have enough. 00:02:59
City which I I. 00:03:01
What's happening? I've provided that back and yeah, they so. 00:03:03
I. 00:03:08
Two things I had done is my firm because obviously civil engineers. 00:03:09
Works for the county and. 00:03:13
Hand for work. 00:03:14
Greenville. 00:03:16
We looked at years ago. 00:03:18
And so I had all that data. 00:03:19
Looked at it and. 00:03:22
It would use up the rest of their capacity, theoretically. 00:03:23
I mean, so there's options and we need to further that discussion with this. 00:03:27
But it seemed that. 00:03:31
They they could serve the town. 00:03:32
Yes, and then we would use up the rest of it before. 00:03:36
That's correct. So yeah, that would be cool. So they. 00:03:39
There's some options to look at with them, we just need a further that you said we need to follow back up. 00:03:43
I'm gonna have to take our next steps with them is. 00:03:48
What a build out would look like, yeah. 00:03:51
Somebody 'cause they want to make sure their time. 00:03:54
That's right. OK. 00:03:58
Principles are before we start. 00:03:59
That's serving outside of the town. 00:04:01
So and it it all comes to funding, how would they fund that? How would we fund our park? 00:04:04
Yeah, so. 00:04:10
Then there may be opportunities to look at grants together. Maybe there's we just have to. 00:04:12
Further that discussion. 00:04:17
So no action maybe on that. 00:04:18
All right. Well, new business. So Jim Everson, you're here. 00:04:23
So so I asked you to come. We had some discussion here. 00:04:26
The last meeting I believe previously. 00:04:31
Proposals that. 00:04:39
Hotel there some questions came up on. 00:04:41
How they innkeeper taxes use what gets taxed? Are small short term rentals included in that? 00:04:44
So I thought. 00:04:50
It'd be glad to have Jim come in and. 00:04:51
Kind of answer any questions, kind of go over how. 00:04:54
The sponsor distributed. 00:04:57
Jefferson Park in Floyd County Convention and Tourism Bureau. He was also enters into the shelter. 00:05:01
I'm also the advocacy here for the Indiana Tourism Association, so I've become the resident. 00:05:07
State geek on innkeeper's tax. 00:05:13
Code so. 00:05:16
Not only no hours, I kind of know that the state background and. 00:05:20
And and how? 00:05:23
How we got to where we are. 00:05:24
I'll give you the quick, quick overview and then interrupt me with questions along the way. 00:05:26
50 years ago. 00:05:32
General Assembly passed. 00:05:35
A new chapter of. 00:05:37
In the area code 69. 00:05:39
And this is chapter 3. 00:05:41
Specific to Clark and Floyd counties. 00:05:43
The General Assembly levied. 00:05:46
An innkeeper's tax. 00:05:48
In that legislation. 00:05:49
And created a board of managers. 00:05:51
To to oversee that. 00:05:54
The board managers is appointed by 5. 00:05:56
Appointing authorities. 00:05:59
Those county commissioners and Clark and Floyd. 00:06:01
Mayor 6 now. 00:06:04
Adam The. 00:06:06
The mayors of New Albany and. 00:06:08
Jeffersonville, the Clarksville Town Council and effective July 1. 00:06:10
To Mayor Charlestown. 00:06:14
We'll have one point. So our board is going to grow to 14. 00:06:15
July 1, because of that new addition that came in. 00:06:19
The most recent? 00:06:22
Session of the General Assembly. 00:06:23
Beam keepers tax. 00:06:27
Can be used for. 00:06:29
Purposes. 00:06:32
To grow tourism. 00:06:33
In in the community. 00:06:35
There's different. 00:06:38
Definitions and phrases used in different chapters applying to different communities around the state but. 00:06:40
That that is fairly consistent. 00:06:46
Principal throughout all the. 00:06:52
About the different chapters, the idea of being. 00:06:54
This attacks that comes from the customers of lodging properties. 00:06:57
And and and should go back to benefit. 00:07:02
The industry. 00:07:06
Whose customers are are funding? 00:07:07
So it's added on to the. 00:07:09
To the room charge, just like say sales. 00:07:10
Flows through three. 00:07:13
Department of Revenue back down to the county treasurers and and and then us. 00:07:14
Ours is a little bit different. 00:07:20
In that 75% of our funding. 00:07:22
Goes toward. 00:07:25
The more traditional role that you think about. 00:07:26
For a convention and visitors Bureau, Tourism Bureau. 00:07:30
We now call ourselves destination. 00:07:33
Marketing organizations. 00:07:35
Whatever that is. 00:07:37
What? Whatever the name, is the function still the same? 00:07:39
And that is? 00:07:42
Promotion. 00:07:43
To draw visitors in. 00:07:44
That could be leader travelers. It could be. 00:07:47
You know, we're very active in the senior motor coach tour market. 00:07:50
Bringing that those groups in. 00:07:53
We're ramping up more and more. 00:07:56
Marketing efforts toward. 00:07:59
The youth sports travel market. 00:08:00
And and to the meetings market. 00:08:03
So 75% of our funding is in that marketing. 00:08:05
Find it as a function. 00:08:10
The thing that's weird about us is that 25% is dedicated to a. 00:08:12
Tourism capital development. 00:08:16
And in the shorthand on that is that. 00:08:19
Those funds can only be used to pay off bonds. 00:08:22
Issued by municipal partner. 00:08:25
For projects that our board approves. 00:08:27
That language was added in 1986. 00:08:30
To our To our chapters of statute. 00:08:35
And we've been allowed to build rules around that. 00:08:40
And so over 40 years of that program, we funded about 10. 00:08:44
It's coming up on $7,000,000 worth of. 00:08:49
Projects throughout the communities. 00:08:51
That include things like. 00:08:54
You own the amphitheater, Jeffersonville River Stage. 00:08:55
Falsely Ohio Interpretive Center. 00:08:58
The original bill. 00:09:01
Redo of the exhibits. Another redo of the exhibits. 00:09:03
The Noco arson cultures. 00:09:07
Place on fields at IUS. 00:09:13
More recently, Nova Park. 00:09:18
And the overseas stop. 00:09:21
Project. 00:09:22
So there's this whole list of projects that. 00:09:24
That we've helped done. 00:09:27
Our our storing. 00:09:30
In our application process. 00:09:32
You get any applicant gets a higher score in. 00:09:34
In this particular. 00:09:38
Element, if we're if we are funding 25% or less of the total project cost, we want to see leverage. 00:09:40
We want to see other buy in other partners there also. 00:09:46
So that that's been an important. 00:09:51
An important principle. 00:09:52
We're we're going through right now a bond issue. 00:09:54
Through the Economic Development Commission, Floyd County. 00:09:59
That will fund for. 00:10:02
Projects. 00:10:04
Three of which are in Floyd County. 00:10:06
The amphitheater project at. 00:10:09
CMP Community Park. 00:10:12
Trailhead at on the monetary. 00:10:15
Why not Trailer Bayou Southeast? 00:10:17
And turf on us on some of the fields at Silver Street Park. 00:10:20
The 4th project is at Jeffersonville High School. 00:10:25
I know it sounds weird on the surface, but. 00:10:29
They are building a. 00:10:32
Very competitive Natatorium. 00:10:35
It'll be the largest One South of Indianapolis. 00:10:39
And we'll make our region. 00:10:43
Competitive in. 00:10:45
The swing beat. 00:10:47
Business that we currently can't go for. 00:10:48
And they need additional. 00:10:51
It's not sexy. 00:10:53
But we're contributing. 00:10:54
250,000 Toward. 00:10:56
Fort Moore Parking. 00:10:57
To be able to accommodate the cars necessary to film. 00:10:59
The thousand seats in the sanatorium. 00:11:02
So. 00:11:04
There were 13 projects that applied in 2025. 00:11:06
4/4 are getting funded and that bond will close. 00:11:10
August 27th and we'll be able to start. 00:11:15
It's getting funding to those projects. 00:11:18
So we do. 00:11:20
Capital projects. 00:11:23
Through that through that package. 00:11:24
I'll stop there. 00:11:29
Questions. 00:11:31
Well, that's fantastic. 00:11:33
You know, we've got. 00:11:35
I've got Nova Park and the adjacent. 00:11:37
Regional Park, That's as you're well aware of. 00:11:39
We've had discussions over the years about that, so. 00:11:42
Lots of opportunities and plans and. 00:11:45
They sat there, I guess. Good to know that. 00:11:48
So there's other funding mechanisms that maybe we could. 00:11:51
Leverage. Yeah, You know. 00:11:54
Floyd County is the pass through. 00:11:56
County. 00:11:57
OK. 00:11:59
Since they're not a taxi, we have to send it to you. Gotcha. 00:12:00
Yeah, so we. 00:12:03
Yeah, we look Floyd, David dot Clark to go see. 00:12:04
Yeah, Clark has before. 00:12:07
That we've done the last two rounds, mainly because we have. 00:12:09
For the projects here. 00:12:13
Then Clark, would you say that's the reason or? 00:12:14
Yes, especially in this last round. 00:12:17
When you when you look at the distribution of of funds either by county or by. 00:12:20
Jurisdiction. 00:12:24
Over the years it's been pretty even. 00:12:26
What Yes at Floyd County Law Department generated about 18%. 00:12:29
Of our revenue, but. 00:12:33
Floyd Shammy. 00:12:35
Projects have received. 00:12:37
About 1/3 of the funding historically. 00:12:38
And so. 00:12:41
So y'all been touching by the weight class? 00:12:43
On that, he just likes to play better. 00:12:46
Some superior. 00:12:50
So the inn, the innkeeper's tax, that's the only one available. 00:12:56
To the charging. 00:13:01
Yeah, four months. 00:13:04
So there's nothing localities from enacting their own. 00:13:07
Thank you for style tax. 00:13:11
If you if you were in Harrison County. 00:13:13
It's not legislated. 00:13:17
Tax it is enabling. 00:13:20
Language Harrison County's. 00:13:23
Language came later. 00:13:27
And their language says the County Council may love the attacks, and if so, the county commissioner shall create. 00:13:28
That's mission. 00:13:34
But the earlier one, starting in the 70s, like us, we were the. 00:13:37
We were the 4th chapter past. 00:13:41
In the state and and. 00:13:44
And it was more county by county by county. 00:13:46
A real slog. 00:13:50
To get these things passed. 00:13:52
And it was. 00:13:54
General Assembly levies the tax and creates the the governing body. 00:13:56
At at some point in the in the 80s. 00:14:01
I'm sure the hotel community and the General Assembly both send. 00:14:04
Stop. 00:14:07
That may, I think what happened to people on Wednesday. 00:14:09
The. 00:14:15
Just like, just like food and beverage, there's no. 00:14:17
There's no you. 00:14:21
Today, at least, there's uniform. 00:14:22
Innkeeper's tax. 00:14:25
That that's enabling that there's. 00:14:26
Well, you still have to go county by county to get. 00:14:29
To get food better. 00:14:33
Permission. 00:14:35
That, and that's always. 00:14:37
A bigger pot of money. 00:14:41
That been a few years. 00:14:43
Our total budget with. 00:14:46
27. 00:14:48
Of this 2800 rooms right now. 00:14:49
Our total budget. 00:14:52
At 6%. 00:14:53
Is 4 million. 00:14:54
Look for projects. 00:14:59
What's the Nexus they are looking for? Could an infrastructure improvement? 00:15:01
The wheelchair, that's what is. 00:15:06
Station is a survey about. 00:15:10
I shouldn't read. 00:15:13
We would. We would consider it. 00:15:16
And and and because because of these guys and I used this. 00:15:18
Use this example. 00:15:21
If there's a project that is going to. 00:15:24
Create significant. 00:15:29
Private investments. 00:15:32
And be and be a demand driver. 00:15:35
Well, one of the principles that we try to follow. 00:15:38
Have tried to follow is that. 00:15:40
The the asset that we are paying for remain publicly owned. 00:15:42
And so. 00:15:47
So that the idea of getting involved in a portion of the infrastructure costs. 00:15:49
To foster Prep. 00:15:54
Private investment. 00:15:55
Would work because we wouldn't necessarily. 00:15:57
Put the money in the hands of private development. 00:15:59
And so helping. 00:16:03
Help me create that environment that. 00:16:06
Even get a buffer situation. 00:16:08
That the that the perhaps of the private investment can happen. 00:16:10
Maybe. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Nathan up. 00:16:15
I think. 00:16:18
You mentioned in the beginning about Tunnel Hill. 00:16:18
That's that's. 00:16:21
That is an appropriate example. 00:16:22
Situation. 00:16:24
And that they need utilities to get to the property to develop. 00:16:26
Property. 00:16:29
Select eight to get 22 because I want to put a hotel. 00:16:31
Yeah, there. There's a philosophical hurdle to cross there if if we're just talking about a hotel. 00:16:36
Using. 00:16:44
Gatekeepers tax money from other hotels to incentivize. 00:16:45
Yeah. 00:16:49
Yeah. But that does start to create address pushback. There's there's other things, yeah. 00:16:52
Yeah, I totally understand. Yeah, I think there's restaurant that he's taught about good restaurants. There's other stuff. Yeah, 00:16:57
that was just used as an example. Yeah, Nick. 00:17:00
Mentioned that. 00:17:05
Yeah, getting infrastructure. 00:17:05
Improvements to a piece of property, that one. 00:17:07
Yeah, knowing that it's possible. 00:17:10
Now we did score and evaluate that property as part of our Conference Center. 00:17:13
Study process, yeah. 00:17:17
There were four sites. The first phase was do we have any business getting into? 00:17:20
This business of of mediums market and if so then what kind of building do we need to be competitive? 00:17:25
And what's that? Goalie locks? 00:17:31
Look like not too big, not too small. 00:17:33
And then? 00:17:35
And then we. 00:17:37
Knowing that, we invited. 00:17:38
Partners Municipal partners submit science. 00:17:40
So that that was one of Foresight's evaluated. 00:17:43
It was not just as the finest or the final. 00:17:46
Selection. 00:17:48
And and so. 00:17:50
Because at that time, the possibility of a conference facility added to the hotel. 00:17:52
Was was part of the discussion? 00:17:57
So right now. 00:18:00
Our efforts are concentrating. 00:18:01
On originally parcel sales. 00:18:03
In a new build. 00:18:06
Scenario. 00:18:07
Up where the tank farm was. 00:18:10
Where the railroad tracks kind of meet the. 00:18:12
The Levy. Clarksville South. 00:18:15
But because of development. 00:18:18
There we have now changed our preferred path to a Conference Center. 00:18:21
To be. 00:18:25
The holiday side. 00:18:26
You know, so we're working with Wayland group. 00:18:28
On that. 00:18:30
And still, we'll still have to work through what the. 00:18:32
The Conference Center ownership and operations scenario looks like. 00:18:36
That there's there's a lot of. 00:18:41
A lot of things we have to work through upon that. 00:18:43
But but we. 00:18:46
Planning for. 00:18:48
Future capital investment in. 00:18:51
A Conference Center. 00:18:54
And let's have that that is our our chart for that. 00:18:55
Good information. 00:18:58
I think the only other question that came up. 00:19:02
However, our short term rentals are they. 00:19:05
So captured in the innkeeper status. 00:19:09
Yeah. 30 July 19. 00:19:12
After a lot of fighting with their trade association. 00:19:15
The Department of Revenue reached. 00:19:19
With the platforms. 00:19:22
So whereas. 00:19:23
Than individual hotel property has to file. 00:19:25
Through their management group, usually a state. 00:19:28
Sales tax returned. 00:19:31
And they include in Cuba's tax law that. 00:19:33
So the short term rentals, that margin is not on the hosts. 00:19:36
It is on the platform. 00:19:40
To collect at the point of sale. 00:19:42
On the platform and then to admit to the Department of Revenue. 00:19:44
Track all of that by county and and provide that report into Dor and. 00:19:47
And yes, that money comes. 00:19:52
As part of our. 00:19:54
Funding flow. 00:19:55
From Dor to the county treasurer so. 00:19:56
So yeah, they are now included. 00:19:58
Question. We appreciate the information. Absolutely. 00:20:06
It's good information. 00:20:10
Thank you so much. 00:20:11
Anything else just followed. 00:20:12
No. So thank you all. Appreciate. Thank you. 00:20:14
OK, the next step we have Lisa, Bracio and Glenn. 00:20:17
Yeah. 00:20:21
Hi, everyone. Yeah, let me just introduce you real quick. 00:20:22
When was make my move purchase event? 00:20:28
He working with Lisa. 00:20:33
Business. 00:20:37
Which is one of the incentives we offer the. 00:20:38
OK program. 00:20:42
Great. So they're here to present what they've been working on. 00:20:43
OK. So I'm Lisa Russell. I'm the Entrepreneurship and Strategic Management Professor at Indiana University Southeast, and I work 00:20:47
with Nick. 00:20:51
At Nova Park I have post office hours up there a couple of times a week. 00:20:55
And I work with community members. We bring students in. 00:20:59
And I'm working with the group that's up there right now. 00:21:01
Actually, there's a lot of stuff going on up there. It's pretty cool. I walk in now and it's like there are people everywhere. 00:21:04
But for the last couple years I've been walking in there alone on words originally feeling. 00:21:09
But it's it's actually with with the new red wire up there and everything. And I didn't just say that out loud. Can we strike that 00:21:15
from the microphone? 00:21:19
I'm a retired police officer. 00:21:23
So working at Noble Park's been great, hosting the office up there, they felt that I was a good fit up there with my. 00:21:27
Entrepreneurship Background. 00:21:34
And recently Nick asked if I could work with Glenn. He's. 00:21:36
Working through Grant. 00:21:40
And I got really turned on by his product. 00:21:41
And so I'm not really going into the details of it, but. 00:21:44
We are working on some survey information. I've actually been out there. 00:21:47
Surveying individuals. 00:21:51
At gas stations, every time I pull up behind somebody that's got a wheel on the outside of their car, I'm like, yo-yo, can I talk 00:21:53
to you? And I'm talking to people and they're leaning in. They're asking me for a business card. What website do I go to? 00:21:59
And for the stuff that we do, we get out into the community and we talk to potential customers. 00:22:04
And when they start leaning in like that. 00:22:09
I'm coming back and telling what? 00:22:11
You have something. 00:22:13
You. You are on to something here. 00:22:14
They're not telling the price range and everything and they are still interested. 00:22:17
And that's the key. 00:22:20
That's what I tell him to look for when you're my students and people who are starting businesses. 00:22:22
If you get the people leaning in, if they close off and go interesting, interesting and they want to get out of there. 00:22:26
Then you got some pivoting to do. 00:22:32
But everyone I have talked to is leaning in. 00:22:34
Asking For more information. Do you have a card can I get on the website? 00:22:36
Is it ready now? 00:22:40
Those are those are the things I'm hearing. 00:22:42
With that said. 00:22:44
Glenn's gonna talk about the product. 00:22:45
And how that fits in. My job was to evaluate the worthiness of his business model and his product. 00:22:47
And. 00:22:54
Unequivocally, I can tell you that. 00:22:55
He is in the high. 00:22:57
Of the consumer market. 00:22:59
Which is going to sell because I looked at the models that carry that spare tire or spare tire. 00:23:01
Everybody's. 00:23:05
They're dishing out the money for those. We just stepped into it. 00:23:06
Jeep dealership. 00:23:09
With those $85,000 Jeeps and they are just signing contract after contract and those things are rolling out of the dealership. 00:23:10
I didn't even know this Jeep dealership was here. 00:23:17
And I'm driving. 00:23:20
Jeep Grand Cherokee. 00:23:22
And get one of those wheels, because if I want one of those. 00:23:24
Buy the Jeep for that. 00:23:29
Makes no sense, but it's 4. 00:23:31
So. 00:23:33
My job was to to really vet that out. 00:23:35
For for you guys. 00:23:37
And we're here to talk about. 00:23:39
That vetting the things that we've seen. 00:23:41
We're working on collecting actual numbers, but. 00:23:44
My experience is telling me we have a, we have a. 00:23:47
A winner here and. 00:23:50
Him moving forward with the grant and. 00:23:52
Becoming part of Noble Park. 00:23:54
I believe it's it's a strong. 00:23:56
Fit for for you guys, for us and. 00:23:58
Ford Nova Park. 00:24:01
So with that, I'm going to let you talk to Glenn about his idea. 00:24:02
Thank you for the opportunity to come out here and talk to you guys. I brought a few little. 00:24:07
How do you feel like things so you can see them? 00:24:12
Those are some of the. 00:24:13
The casting parts that I had made. 00:24:15
And then one of the mounds, this was another mount that I have for display so. 00:24:17
I have notes. I'm gonna read them. 00:24:22
I have been working on them as late as last night early. 00:24:24
You know, last night as a matter of fact, so. 00:24:28
I'm a veteran. 00:24:30
I'm an owner of. 00:24:31
MLC Innovations, LLC. 00:24:32
In Floyd County. 00:24:35
And I'm an inventor of a patent. 00:24:36
For the Tri axe mount platform. 00:24:39
The image here is from my patent. 00:24:41
And it it shows the collapsible mount. 00:24:43
With the center hub holding arms, contact mounts for the tire as well as center receiver. 00:24:46
That creates that modular platform. 00:24:52
I wanted to start there because it's not just a sketch or an idea. This is a protected invention. 00:24:54
That's not working on to turn into a real product. 00:24:58
Built here for Canada. 00:25:01
Like Nick said, I moved the point back to Floyd County. 00:25:03
I'm gonna make my move program. 00:25:05
I'm already starting with my business. 00:25:07
I'm here today to discuss. 00:25:10
You know the support of. 00:25:12
Floyd County is providing. 00:25:13
Continue access to Noble Park, the route and other forms of support that can help me move forward from the. 00:25:15
From the prototyping and initial product development. 00:25:20
Through the validation of sales so. 00:25:23
The simplest way to describe it is. 00:25:26
Tribex is It's a modular mounting platform for vehicles. 00:25:27
Like the Jeeps or? 00:25:31
Sprinter bands or. 00:25:32
Broncos that had a rear mounted spare tires, it gives them another place to mount things. 00:25:33
Can we go ahead 1 slide? 00:25:39
Spike mask if we go there. 00:25:41
Hold on. 00:25:44
Yeah, click. 00:25:46
Click that skip. 00:25:47
All right, the idea comes from an existing product. 00:25:54
You know, seeing existing products at at. 00:25:58
Vehicle shows, Jeep shows and everything. 00:26:00
Some of them I like. Some of them, They all had compromise, you know. 00:26:03
That there's trade-offs. A large tire mounted. 00:26:06
Flag holder that I initially saw. 00:26:09
It's balky. 00:26:11
It it's awkward to store, if you tried to go to a car wash you could just take it off and shove it in there. 00:26:12
And that it's inconvenient to remove. 00:26:18
Pitch mounted. 00:26:21
Rats prevent the tailgate from opening, swinging open. 00:26:22
And limiting your use of the towing capacity or. 00:26:26
Coming early. 00:26:29
Single-purpose accessories. 00:26:30
Solve, you know, one problem that doesn't create a long term value for the customer and necessarily repeat. 00:26:31
Customers for. 00:26:38
You know, sale. 00:26:39
Those are like the bike racks that you see on the back that allow you to open up the gate. 00:26:40
Vehicle owners. 00:26:45
Off roaders. 00:26:47
Campers. 00:26:49
And you know, various customers want this rugged. 00:26:50
One gear that's rugged and useful. 00:26:53
Sorry. 00:26:56
I'm a little. 00:26:57
Nervous. 00:26:58
I, I don't do this every day, your friend. So you're, you're doing great. You're doing great. Alright, so but they also they want 00:26:59
a rugged and useful tools, but they also want the the ability for. 00:27:04
To access the back, they want to be able to use the receiver or the hitch. 00:27:09
They want gear that can be temporarily installed on the vehicle. 00:27:13
Use at the lake, at the beach. 00:27:16
On the slopes. 00:27:19
When camping or Wheeling. 00:27:20
When they wanna use it. 00:27:21
But then. 00:27:23
Haven't removed a conveniently stored when it's not in use. 00:27:24
The triac solves that problem. 00:27:27
By, you know, creating that collapsible. 00:27:29
Mounting platform. 00:27:31
Around the rear spare tire, giving the customers useful. 00:27:32
Rear mounting platform. 00:27:35
While preserving the tail meat access in the hitch. 00:27:36
Slide please. 00:27:39
So this is an example. 00:27:41
I'll diversify it. 00:27:43
So it's the same platform. 00:27:45
AI helped me with this. This is in development. 00:27:47
I use my drawings to create them so. 00:27:50
If you want hit more one more over. 00:27:52
All right, the base offering. 00:27:55
Is the. Is the platform itself. 00:27:57
That's the black item there. 00:28:00
And the telescoping utility mask. That's the. 00:28:02
The vertical thing here. 00:28:05
I wanted to be careful about how I described this because the mask comes with the base offering. 00:28:07
Utility mass is the first excess saturated. 00:28:12
But it's not the product. It's not. 00:28:16
It's the initial accessory. The mounting platform is the product. 00:28:18
The utility mass is the first accessory because it's immediately useful. 00:28:22
It can be used to hold flag. 00:28:26
Hawaii A GoPro while you're on. 00:28:27
On the trail. 00:28:30
You can have the cell antenna booster when you're out camping. 00:28:31
There's a. It's threaded at the top there. 00:28:35
It but the the utility mass demonstrates the the versatility of the platform. 00:28:38
In a way that. 00:28:42
That consumers. 00:28:43
But they quickly understand. 00:28:44
And you can see that this one also. 00:28:47
Mouth notes but. 00:28:49
Goes to the ground, and that's one of. 00:28:51
The benefits of this over yeah, you take this off of the vehicle. 00:28:53
And place it in the on your campsite, use it on the roadside for emergencies. You can mount a flashing lights to it. So it's. 00:28:57
Yeah, it's. Yeah. You've seen those, those camp lights just like that. Yeah. 00:29:02
I was using this. 00:29:09
A few nights ago, working on my trailer, yeah. 00:29:10
And I had it out there working on it. I'll show you that pics, but. 00:29:12
I'll show you a couple things. So 4 chefs, I mean, we're just all kinds of stuff starts coming up. Can we hit the slide again? 00:29:16
There's an example. 00:29:22
And one more slide, please. 00:29:24
So the. 00:29:27
The accessory ecosystem, so the one foundation, multiple products. 00:29:28
The slide shows why the tracks is commercially different from other tire mounted. 00:29:32
Or single purpose accessories like a flag holder or a flag holder camp light. 00:29:35
The platform creates an accessory ecosystem. Customers start with the base platform, including the utility. 00:29:40
And they can have different accessories based off of their activities. 00:29:45
Accessories and development include the Triax load transfer bike carrier this is designing. I'm designing this to carry like the 00:29:49
weight of the E bike. You only need that. 00:29:53
Load transferring late in order to. 00:29:57
Carry heavy items. 00:30:00
So like for an example, it's gonna transfer the load down to the receiver. 00:30:02
So but it allows the gate to open and close. 00:30:06
That's part of the. 00:30:10
It's not tonight, you know. 00:30:11
So. 00:30:13
But. 00:30:15
Other ideas are the you know the angler work center with fold down table. 00:30:16
You see some of the fishing. 00:30:20
Items there. Snowboard, ski carrier same. Same platform here. Oops. 00:30:22
Move forward. 00:30:28
There, I won't touch it. No recovery boards. 00:30:31
Molly Panel. 00:30:35
The garage. 00:30:36
So this is a. 00:30:37
It's really important because it extends the most the same modular idea into the consumer's garage. 00:30:39
An accessory could come off of the vehicle. 00:30:46
And you can mount it onto the wall in the garage. 00:30:48
You could take your other IT thing out. 00:30:51
Mounted on the thing. 00:30:52
In the garage. 00:30:53
So. 00:30:54
It's the same quick attachment report. 00:30:55
I'm at it for two reasons. It gives the customer. 00:30:58
The value because they have the same vehicle interface and same. 00:31:00
In the same you know can support multiple activities and the second against the business repeat sale. 00:31:06
With new accessories. 00:31:11
Another SKU can can be sold to the same customer base. 00:31:12
The business model. 00:31:16
Model is not a one product and done, it's a base platform with the going family of accessories. 00:31:17
Slide please. 00:31:22
Help you there. 00:31:23
So it's not just a concept like I said, this is this is a patent invention. 00:31:25
Have working physical products, I have photos, I have engineering, you know, drawings. 00:31:29
And the ability to produce. 00:31:34
Triads platform and accessories are made from lightweight aluminum. 00:31:36
And stainless steel. 00:31:39
The goal is a rugged. 00:31:40
Rosen resistant product that fits on. 00:31:42
Jeeps and other opera vehicles. 00:31:44
With the rear expeller. 00:31:46
Rear spare tire method. 00:31:47
Rear mounted spare tire. 00:31:50
And and and it supports the lifestyle of. 00:31:52
Of whether you're a biker or Fisher or a snowboarder. 00:31:56
You can have all of those. 00:32:00
I also have the production capability. Right now I have a powerful. 00:32:01
I have a 45 by 33 foot pole barn with power. 00:32:05
I got all of the equipment to to start this fabrication. 00:32:09
Another interesting thing is the property that I'm at is. 00:32:14
The same property that C Line Engineering was at. This is a Floyd County business that that. 00:32:18
When the owner died. 00:32:23
The family split up the property. I bought half. 00:32:25
But that's where I'm at. 00:32:28
So I'd like to keep that whole. 00:32:29
Spirit of fabrication and, you know, engineering. 00:32:32
On that property. 00:32:35
And also have multiple business domains already secured, so I can start with the whole ordering you know? 00:32:36
The process. 00:32:43
Slide please. 00:32:45
So market viability. 00:32:47
So my market is large. 00:32:49
Almost $35 billion or $53 billion. 00:32:51
Is. 00:32:55
What Seema's saying? 00:32:57
Was spent on aftermarket accessories for vehicles. 00:32:59
OK, so. 00:33:02
The Triac's aimed for these customers or. 00:33:05
Flight, Lisa said. 00:33:08
I'm looking at these. 00:33:10
Individuals with. 00:33:11
Discretionary. 00:33:13
Hey Cortana, they can spend the money. 00:33:14
People that like to personalize their stuff, they like to do their outdoor activities. 00:33:16
And they spend the money. 00:33:19
Fill out that. 00:33:21
So. 00:33:24
Scroll down here. 00:33:25
And my go to market plan is is practical. I plan to demonstrate the product at national off road events. 00:33:28
There's big one happening in in Gatlinburg in August, I think it is. 00:33:34
Or a geek Jamboree. 00:33:38
10,000 jeeps that go there. 00:33:40
So the idea is to go there. 00:33:42
Put it out, see what people say. 00:33:43
Incorporate. 00:33:47
Can I hit one more? 00:33:48
So the projected sale price is $500 and that includes the the utility mask that you see right here this this. 00:33:50
Sad at brackets. 00:33:56
You know, based off of. 00:34:00
The current working model, the estimated parts material cost is about $277 when I add in $50.00 for labor. 00:34:01
It brings the total to $327. 00:34:08
That is about $173 of gross profit. 00:34:11
Or 30, almost 35%. 00:34:14
Gross profit. 00:34:17
Before overhead such as insurance and and. 00:34:18
Taxes. 00:34:21
My current build rate I can put these together about 1 1/2 units per hour. 00:34:22
Once all the material is ready and the build process is streamlined. 00:34:27
So you can see right there. 00:34:33
1 1/2 units per hour, about $750 in production revenue per hour and about $260 gross profit. 00:34:35
For production out before overhead. 00:34:42
That's what I'm looking at. 00:34:44
Slide please. 00:34:46
So my current plan is to finalize this 5 units that I have. 00:34:49
And put a couple of accessories together. 00:34:53
Finish the product photos. 00:34:57
Get the website QR code. 00:34:58
Ready so we can start getting. 00:35:01
Getting orders in place. 00:35:03
Later this year, I'm taking those. 00:35:05
5 minutes for the. 00:35:06
The road and. 00:35:08
Just collect feedback like I said. 00:35:10
After that, I'll be refining the platform. 00:35:12
Building a few more accessories like I mentioned. 00:35:14
And you know, again, I I just want to. 00:35:19
Focus on this. 00:35:21
This wall mounted accessory holder is like the garage, gets kind of crowded sometimes. I don't mind those. 00:35:22
I took my. 00:35:28
Thing of my fishing rods off, I have to now put them somewhere I can just hang them right there on the wall. 00:35:29
And then when I'm ready to go next time. 00:35:34
I have a number of other things. There were two other patents that. 00:35:37
My mom and dad died. 00:35:40
Back-to-back. Hey? Cortana moved away and it came back. 00:35:41
And serial entrepreneurs with serial patent, yeah, well, no, they're, they're directly in line with this whole ecosystem. 00:35:45
I mean, there's other other things that. 00:35:51
I mean you can Google. 00:35:54
Opposed. Search Google patent my name and then you'll see there are two out there. 00:35:56
They've since elapsed because I didn't pursue past that. 00:35:59
Provisional patent phase. I just got wrapped up with life so. 00:36:02
Yeah, so continued access to the Nova Park and the route and. 00:36:08
And uh. 00:36:12
I appreciate that. That's basically one more slide please. 00:36:15
And you can see this was the initial concept you could see when I drew it. 00:36:18
I was at a car show and I saw this this. 00:36:21
Flag holder and I'm like. 00:36:24
I didn't like what I did, why they did that. And so it's big, it's bulky, it didn't do any other things. And so I started coming 00:36:26
up with an idea and I drew that and this is. 00:36:31
This is my trailer I'm working on right now. 00:36:35
And. 00:36:38
That's I'm loading it up and heading out. 00:36:39
That's where it's gonna go. I got a refrigerator, solar panels, and. 00:36:42
Either did the coast to coast tour. 00:36:47
And that in 2020. 00:36:48
No, it's faster. 00:36:51
2025. 00:36:52
This time I was. I was. 00:36:53
In California, but. 00:36:55
That's my. 00:36:57
My product. 00:36:59
So I can watch this. 00:37:01
Very impressive. 00:37:02
You need to be there. 00:37:03
All the space where he can actually go, there are few things. 00:37:10
In our entrepreneurial ecosystem, and one of the ways to do that is to get him settled in a Noble Nova Park, which is. 00:37:14
Become kind of the hub. 00:37:20
Of our entrepreneurial ecosystem, which is kudos to. 00:37:23
You all for that? 00:37:27
Between Indiana University Southeast, the Indiana Small Business Development Center. 00:37:29
And Nova Park, where the route is now. 00:37:34
We are that group of people and we've got Doctor Ajan Kara working with me with. 00:37:37
With that whole group of people, I know our. 00:37:42
Chancellor out there is. 00:37:44
All in. 00:37:46
On on keeping us up there. 00:37:48
She wants me. 00:37:50
She wants me out there. She could be probably up there full time if if that's what it took. 00:37:52
But. 00:37:57
We need him up there. 00:37:58
And he? 00:37:59
He has a viable product. He needs to be plugged into our community. He's ready to manufacture. We can manufacture in the space 00:38:00
that he's in. 00:38:04
And he has nowhere to go. It's set through. 00:38:09
Scaling. 00:38:12
And adding efficiencies, that lowers his cost, that gives him a wider profit margin, that allows him to withdraw. 00:38:14
That's gonna be the key, right? 00:38:20
I'm Nancy and smiles right here. Yeah, I mean, I've already. 00:38:22
Yeah, some of the other. 00:38:24
You know everything's. 00:38:26
With nice stainless steel hardware, but. 00:38:27
There are certain. 00:38:29
Things that I'm I'm planning on doing preserving the patent integrity, but. 00:38:31
Changing certain things to. 00:38:36
Make more efficient. 00:38:37
Right. 00:38:39
But you've been a hell of a market because they actor. 00:38:39
Aftermarket for the auto industry is insane. 00:38:44
And we're looking. 00:38:50
Where you going minus is already on all the Jeep owners and you have one. 00:38:51
Down there you can take a look. It's Big Blue thing. 00:38:56
And uh. 00:38:58
It's like something. 00:39:00
They spend a lot of money just to make it. 00:39:03
There and I saw one with your Looney Tunes with. 00:39:05
Foghorn Leghorn. They're like, why that? 00:39:07
Yeah, so, yeah. So you're needing office space. 00:39:09
He needs whatever help he wants to help. As part of the Makemytrip, we're gonna be getting $5000. 00:39:13
Additional or doing what first, right? 00:39:22
Running business fine. 00:39:25
Working with IUS and we have that then we can get. 00:39:27
And then they also asking for office space, office at Noble right, which? 00:39:30
We do have available to to. 00:39:36
Determine whether to give that to them. 00:39:40
I think we. 00:39:42
Both those things are. 00:39:43
Available class right now. 00:39:44
Sorry, that brings yeah, if you guys see fit to help us. 00:39:47
Physical space right now we have Tim tweet out there. 00:39:52
Right. 00:39:55
The IUS has space upstairs since. 00:39:57
Just storage I think. 00:40:00
No, I'm not there in the air. Yeah, I'm good. I totally can't remember how much this this semester. I I am now the Bionic Woman. 00:40:02
Very close. I have shoulder and a head. 00:40:10
So I am so we have several offices still available in that building. 00:40:12
Still in process of working that route contract out so we really can. 00:40:18
It's ours to do. With what, Yeah. 00:40:23
Tim has added a couple people to his. 00:40:26
Payroll, and they have. 00:40:28
Decorated up there. They got cushy chairs there there. 00:40:30
It's it's really it's the the. 00:40:33
The park's coming to life, which we do. 00:40:36
You know you, you built, you do it one step at a time. You don't. 00:40:39
You know, just jump in with a punt attack, you know, having red wire. 00:40:42
Engaged and open and. 00:40:46
You've got life. 00:40:47
And the more bodies we can we can get in there, the more businesses that we can call the success story, the more people are going 00:40:49
to. 00:40:52
Start. 00:40:55
Oh yeah. 00:40:56
Yeah. 00:40:59
So are you interested in? 00:41:00
Spelling the selling the idea or scaling it yourself, what's the strategy? So great thanks. So. 00:41:04
Yeah, yeah. So like I said, I'm retired, but. 00:41:11
I did 22 years in the Air Force. 00:41:14
After that. 00:41:16
I've been in the healthcare space. 00:41:16
I've worked with two other companies. This is the. 00:41:18
I've had three jobs in my life. 00:41:20
But not counting the little miniature golf course, right? So. 00:41:23
You know, but. 00:41:27
I I didn't, I don't have, I don't golf. 00:41:31
I don't have a hog for retirement. 00:41:33
I met that point. 00:41:35
Where I don't want to continue to work and, and you know, like y'all, I mean, everybody says pursue your passion, right? I get so 00:41:36
wrapped up in doing my technical drawings and, and just start building the stuff that I lose track of time. 00:41:42
So my plan is to be. 00:41:48
To find a party with. 00:41:50
He said golfing. 00:41:51
By by putting these together, I could do things that I like to do these cross country trips and go places that I've never been see 00:41:52
people and then. 00:41:56
They like it, great if they don't. 00:42:00
OK, there's some people are going to like it because I've already gotten feedback. 00:42:01
They're they're the ones that say. 00:42:05
Dude, you should patent it 'cause this is the second version. The first version I did was. 00:42:06
They look really professional. 00:42:10
But. 00:42:12
Should have brought them a QR code that you can accept. 00:42:13
Because it shows the video that I created but. 00:42:16
Right now I don't have a plan long term. My plan is to produce those, take them and sell them and. 00:42:20
Hopefully people like them and buy them. 00:42:25
Someone stopped for me, you know, licensing fees and. 00:42:27
Produce it. That's probably the easier way for me and then I could tip it to the accessories, right. Looking at the higher profit, 00:42:31
I'm sure you got idea 234. I don't have a lot of ideas like you have on on this I'm writing. 00:42:36
Please talk into my head. 00:42:42
There's one that said fear me. 00:42:46
Right. Or hold my beard. 00:42:47
It's like the mount platform, like if you're out on the. 00:42:49
Wherever you need a place to put your beard, it's just gonna be a raft if you wanna put the beer with the. 00:42:51
Friday's talkboard on the back where they can write their name and know which. 00:42:56
Thing is there. 00:42:59
But. 00:43:01
All those little ideas pop in, I write them down and. 00:43:02
Some of them are gonna be easier, some of them are hard. 00:43:05
It's going again going to use that same. 00:43:07
Concept. I want to be able to maintain that access to the rear gate. 00:43:09
I want to be able to use the receiver. 00:43:13
I want something that's going to collapse and make it. 00:43:15
Easier store and I don't have another big thing in my garage sit in the corner. 00:43:17
So I don't know what it's going to lead. Right now I'm on this path. 00:43:22
I'm going whether you guys are coming or not. So as it grows, do we look at Angel investing for growth? Do we look at how do we, 00:43:26
how do we, what do we see that that's part of that entrepreneurial ecosystem. We have access through the route through the 00:43:31
Southeast, 2 lawyers to patent people to help him. 00:43:36
Do we want to renew those two provisional patents? Are they still available? What do we want to do with all that? 00:43:42
There's growth. 00:43:47
There's opportunity. 00:43:48
And that's what we're hoping to, to really allow him to nail down where. 00:43:50
Where that goes? 00:43:54
Does he? 00:43:55
Sell this to Jeep. 00:43:56
And go on to the next. 00:43:58
You cool thing that he doodles in his sleeve. 00:44:00
We don't know. I don't know where it's going to go. 00:44:03
But I I I didn't start it. 00:44:07
With anything in mind. 00:44:09
I started it because I. 00:44:10
I saw that. 00:44:12
Someone add something that likes? 00:44:13
Wondered why they made it that way and. 00:44:15
You know I. 00:44:20
And so I just started making. 00:44:21
And and that's something that I do just. 00:44:24
I kind of envisioned something. 00:44:26
And I use like. 00:44:28
You know SketchUp, which is the software online that's free and. 00:44:29
But I built. 00:44:33
Additions in houses. 00:44:35
Pool decks. I had everything drawn. 00:44:39
I go to Lowe's and sit. Here's my parts list. They deliver everything and I just. 00:44:42
Put it together for the drawing. Cut it. 00:44:45
Put it here. 00:44:47
How about together? 00:44:49
The whole casting. 00:44:50
You know, it was, it was because to be able to reproduce something. 00:44:51
The way it was made before, it was just black sheet metal welded together. First of all, trying to find someone around here to 00:44:55
Weld aluminum. 00:44:58
Necessarily easy. 00:45:02
So I went with the casting and it gave me the rigidity strength that I needed on this key part of parts that. 00:45:04
You know. 00:45:10
Because of the casting material, you have what they call a swoop on all of the vertical edges to be able to pull the casting out. 00:45:12
Lead the rent. 00:45:18
Because those aren't 90°. 00:45:20
Lines. 00:45:22
It was going to be difficult. I tried to get some. 00:45:23
Machine shops with. 00:45:25
You know, be able to. 00:45:27
Make a index and and. 00:45:28
And drill it for me. I ended up. 00:45:30
Just designing a boot. 00:45:33
Thinking, you know, just like something I saw went over, I was like. 00:45:34
That's what I need. 00:45:38
Like a woozy cup, you know, in a can. It's like, that's what I need. It's just. 00:45:39
Index my holes that way, put some bushings in there and I got my. 00:45:42
My lines, they're straight where I want. 00:45:45
And I can reproduce it. 00:45:47
And so imagine. 00:45:49
That one of those plans. 00:45:52
For growth ends up being a. 00:45:53
Manufacturing and distribution center right on the park. 00:45:56
OK, that's that's that's that's certainly one of the options. 00:45:59
If this is his baby, I'll just tell you what's to keep in. And that elbow right there. 00:46:03
Hey, Cortana, right and left. There's only one. 00:46:08
One piece that can be used for either side and I I saw something like that on it. 00:46:10
You know those wagons, they had the. 00:46:14
Folder on you know where you push the kids? 00:46:16
And they had plastic ones. I'm like, those are, that's what I kind of need. And so I started drawing it. 00:46:19
The way that it's built. 00:46:23
It'll only open 90°, it won't overextend. 00:46:25
It'll only close till it's 180°. 00:46:28
So perpendicular. 00:46:30
Carol. 00:46:33
So I mean there's just positive goes through it, so they can't some of the ideas. 00:46:33
Like I was talking about that. 00:46:38
That load transferring. 00:46:39
It's utilizing those pieces because again, I I don't want something big and bulky in the project. 00:46:43
That bike carrier is going to attach to the mount. 00:46:47
The center's mount point. 00:46:50
It's going to transfer the weight. 00:46:52
Higher the the pitch. 00:46:54
Allowing me to slide on and off. 00:46:55
But. 00:46:58
It's utilizing the sun. 00:47:00
Fold it up. 00:47:01
And put it on that mount wall mount. 00:47:03
Now you have the bike rack that's not a big because I have a bike rack that's really big. It's sitting on the floor of my garage 00:47:05
training. 00:47:08
This is. 00:47:11
It's transformative. 00:47:14
The administrative space or the the space, obviously you're going to be making these. 00:47:15
Better at A room. 00:47:19
Uh, an office and double park and in the. 00:47:20
Now, because she's got a continuing fracture in his place, right? So what's? 00:47:23
What does the the space that? 00:47:27
At Nova Park right now, the Administrative Space enable unit. 00:47:29
To do other than well, the networking with the, well, that's a, that's a big one for me. 00:47:32
It's because you have a community. I'm not. 00:47:36
I'm not a wet, I work in IT, but I'm not a web. 00:47:39
God, I don't. 00:47:41
Make websites now I can. 00:47:42
Hey somebody. 00:47:44
But there might be some other people that might benefit from it. 00:47:45
May be able to shape. 00:47:47
You know, go to the web UX or whatever to. 00:47:49
Website. Sorry. 00:47:51
Created this type. Do it and walk through it. Maybe they can help guide. 00:47:53
The the networking is probably the biggest thing for me. 00:47:58
When it comes to the. 00:48:02
You know, no park in the route. 00:48:03
Legitimacy in his. 00:48:05
Business Center, where he's where he started. 00:48:07
I guess you're not gonna see. 00:48:10
When he's talking to people about. 00:48:12
About where his business is located. Here's my card. 00:48:14
North Park Innovation Center. 00:48:17
It's it's the idea of of Omni business. 00:48:19
And housing and business. And where his center headquarters are. 00:48:22
In his early stages. 00:48:25
This facility. 00:48:28
From what? It's all you don't have a facility that I would use brake band saws and drill presses and other. I'm in my gorilla 00:48:30
leash. 00:48:32
I was. 00:48:35
Yeah, I'm, that's great. I mean it's great and there are a lot of people that do that successfully. But again, I'm not flying over 00:48:37
partners. There is to help people. 00:48:41
Make that transition. 00:48:45
Universally mixed way. 00:48:46
And so it it offers, it offers all of that, but the connections, the. 00:48:49
Access. 00:48:53
You know that that constantly be surrounded by those people who are innovating. 00:48:54
That problem, Tim, what do you think? 00:48:58
Him comes in and says hey, you know, I think. 00:49:00
It's, you know, maybe you've got to think about, you know. 00:49:03
Let's go talk to my friend. He's got he's got one. Let's give him a call. You know you've got this whole marketing support 00:49:06
ecosystem wants to get on had. 00:49:10
Get out of the media and I. 00:49:14
What's better than handing out this is Scarlet says your address Innovation Pkwy Exactly, exactly. 00:49:17
It's it's. 00:49:24
This unpleasant in the name and I'll see you. 00:49:25
That that means midlife crisis. 00:49:27
Like, you know, I built that first one and I made this video and and. 00:49:33
And then? 00:49:38
And I bought a car and it has an MLC fund. 00:49:39
And but that's where it came from. It's like a midlife prices now, you know? 00:49:42
That's really amazing, but my girlfriend calls it. 00:49:48
Mid-life celebration. 00:49:51
Love it. 00:49:52
So we have. 00:49:53
2 Two things to. 00:49:55
The first is. 00:49:57
Providing the protection here. 00:50:00
It means about. 00:50:03
Is the $5000 supplemental was in startup that was part of the make part of the department? 00:50:05
Yeah, the second would be. 00:50:12
Opposite. 00:50:14
Provide office space for what? 00:50:16
Justin Brown, I can help. 00:50:19
Producer release or something of a silly. 00:50:21
So on the 5000, that was part of the Make My Move initiative. 00:50:25
How do we? 00:50:29
Of funding for that. 00:50:31
Do we is that do we already have the budget? 00:50:33
Yes. 00:50:35
That's been so long, we already have it. 00:50:36
So we don't. 00:50:39
We're not going to edit. We're not right. Well, it's it's out about it. 00:50:40
But it's already. It's already. 00:50:45
Yes, I think we had office space allocated to our. 00:50:47
Yes, yeah. 00:50:52
Well, I think we're flying, saying hey, take one of those. Well, I went for the. 00:50:54
Just 5000 parts but I was more focused on just to try to figure out. 00:50:58
Funny, it's already there. Yeah, we have the money. 00:51:03
So as part of that. 00:51:07
There's a longevity or. 00:51:10
Business start. 00:51:12
And and the requirements to receive that were department. 00:51:15
With this business was working with IUS. I believe that. 00:51:19
Startup. 00:51:23
Go through business plan, financial, marketing people and proof of concept and then present to us. OK, so and then sorry for all 00:51:25
the questions, just gotta go back in time. 00:51:30
To remember all the steps. 00:51:35
Is that a? 00:51:37
One time love, some pain or OK? 00:51:40
Yes. 00:51:42
Upon approval. 00:51:43
OK. 00:51:44
Anybody else have questions? You asked questions I was going to ask. Yeah, I'm just. 00:51:47
So the pronunciation is essentially what was prescribed to get the file pals. 00:51:51
It's quite amazing as we start to finalize the business final I've been working with. 00:51:55
Small business development that was nameless. 00:52:03
It's one of his questions, one of the counselors that is looking at them. 00:52:06
Yeah, I was working on the presentation and everything, trying to get that done before the business plan, but. 00:52:13
I have all the information, that's what I was. 00:52:19
Part of the president. 00:52:21
So. 00:52:22
I don't think we need to make it. 00:52:23
Contingent upon finalization of the business plan. 00:52:25
So I would. 00:52:28
And you guys, we have more discussion. That's fine. Would that entertain a motion? 00:52:30
To. 00:52:33
To approve the $5000. 00:52:35
That was part of the Make My Move program contingent to fly. 00:52:39
The final step of submittal of the. 00:52:42
Business plan. 00:52:45
Yeah, so. 00:52:46
Second marriage, second by Danny. Any other questions we asked him on it? 00:52:48
I just a quick comment that. 00:52:54
Great presentation. 00:52:56
Because I thought it was. 00:52:57
It's interesting to me because. 00:52:58
I like trucks and jeans. 00:53:00
All right. 00:53:03
Did you know other questions? 00:53:05
All those in favor say aye aye. 00:53:07
Motion carries. OK, then the second part. 00:53:09
Second part is office space, yeah. 00:53:12
I would think we would be just to draft something on that, right? 00:53:14
No so well. 00:53:19
Kevin Stockhill So you have an interest. 00:53:21
Please. 00:53:24
Got in between a root. 00:53:27
Management agreement. 00:53:28
I don't know what space you're talking about. Is it part of that IUS space or is it not part of the IUS space? 00:53:30
And not the IUS. 00:53:36
Building a fast-paced No, I assume it's obviously. 00:53:38
And in. 00:53:43
Don't they have two space I think? 00:53:46
So we. 00:53:48
Earmarked 2. 00:53:49
Offices in the group agreement to be set aside for. 00:53:51
I don't believe in that you have any kind of. 00:53:59
It's just we're. 00:54:07
But the two. 00:54:09
The two that are in the roof agreement. 00:54:11
Does that include the Tim tweet space? 00:54:14
That's separate. 00:54:16
So I think regardless of whatever the answer is, we need to figure out. 00:54:18
Wait a we have a pending route. 00:54:21
Agreement that we tabled. 00:54:23
It's the first thing. 00:54:24
Right to know what to do and then? 00:54:25
We'll figure out what inventory we have come back and figure out. 00:54:28
How to do it? 00:54:31
I don't know that it's gonna be. 00:54:32
But we have specs. There is unless there's space, whether it's through. 00:54:35
The agreement agreement are 30 whatever. 00:54:42
So that would entertain a motion to allow the use. 00:54:46
Of of an office space. 00:54:49
What building was that one? 00:54:54
OK. 00:54:57
That's go ahead. 00:54:59
I'm I'm not sure you need help with this, new or not I mean. 00:55:01
It said IUS. 00:55:04
Well, I'll just. 00:55:05
On the set, you're. 00:55:07
Leasing something to a private entity. 00:55:08
I know nobody wants to hear it, but normally it's the same as a sale. 00:55:11
I mean, I don't want to get too appraisals and figure out what that is. 00:55:14
OK. The route is a management contract that's managing your space and that's not signed that's. 00:55:18
I think the cinnamon is there that you you. 00:55:25
May have some space and you'd like to try to figure something out. OK, that has to read it. Let's wait and wait. 00:55:27
That's fine. Figure out. 00:55:32
There will be space, we just. 00:55:33
Yeah, and and and the root contract's not. 00:55:36
Like we don't know if we have. 00:55:38
Right, so patching. 00:55:41
Yeah, OK. 00:55:43
So we we won't act on that at this meeting. 00:55:45
But we'll work through that once we. 00:55:48
Get these other pieces on. 00:55:50
Action Orders. 00:55:51
And then next month would. 00:55:52
Would it be jumping the shark to say? 00:55:55
IUS already. 00:55:58
It's located there. 00:56:01
And they're free to. 00:56:03
And use some of their space. 00:56:04
So that's why I was interested what space it was I'm doing with that. 00:56:08
I'm trying to remember. So you mentioned you don't necessarily have an agreement for that space. 00:56:11
I have to go back to work because. 00:56:16
OK. 00:56:19
I I just don't think we're getting anything further other than we need to go back, Nick, myself. Somebody needs to go back and 00:56:20
figure out what we have and how best to do what we have in place. Yeah, I'm with you, Dave. Yeah, that's fine with me. Yeah, well, 00:56:24
I mean, I don't know how quickly you want to get things. 00:56:28
Said how you went on that but. 00:56:33
I would think by next month we can. 00:56:35
Have all this reset we gave our 10s through his development. We have a development agreement with 10. 00:56:37
Separately. 00:56:45
Directory. So that's how we did. 00:56:46
Move the route for them. We we can we can determine that. 00:56:52
Yeah. And there's, yeah, there's mail facilities out there and there's IUS phase. 00:56:57
Rights and mail facilities are still there if you wanted to go ahead. 00:57:01
You know, update things of that nature with that's the roots managing those, right? 00:57:05
But yeah, I think we're all on board. 00:57:10
Just need to figure out. 00:57:16
Yeah, we want you out there that you think it would. 00:57:17
You benefit from it. 00:57:19
It'll happen, which is trying to figure out how to. 00:57:21
Definitely. 00:57:24
Yeah, I I do have the pop already so I have access to the parking. 00:57:26
Good at this time, this is in the general space Good. I do appreciate the time. 00:57:31
Here with you guys. Thank you guys. I'll just wait until you guys are done, then I'll come in. 00:57:35
Sure. OK. Thank you guys. Hopefully we won't you have any questions so. 00:57:40
You're welcome. Thank you. 00:57:44
OK. 00:57:47
Anything else on that? 00:57:49
Cancel alright. 00:57:50
Next up is the. 00:57:52
The Global Entrepreneurship Week. 00:57:53
And I us sponsorship makes it good after us. 00:57:55
Nick and I sense. 00:57:59
It followed up with. 00:58:01
John Locke yesterday. Don's actually. 00:58:02
Volunteered to kind of help spearhead. 00:58:05
I guess he's chairing the. 00:58:07
Yeah, the effort this year. 00:58:09
And they're actually asking us for a $1500 sponsorship. 00:58:12
They there was different. 00:58:16
Amounts to the 1500. 00:58:18
Specifically asking for from. 00:58:20
That from the counties. 00:58:24
And this would actually be something we would. 00:58:25
Recommended. 00:58:28
Right. And it would have to go to the Yeah, Mort. 00:58:30
Since we have finally. 00:58:32
Yeah. 00:58:36
I think it it it's pretty well received and they've already got a pretty nice. 00:58:39
Schedule of events that. 00:58:43
There was an update which you all don't have. 00:58:45
First was having a day that they had. 00:58:49
Symposium. 00:58:56
Start up. 00:58:58
Yeah. So they're, they're getting a lot of. 00:59:03
Folks interacting with this. 00:59:05
It's our name out there. 00:59:10
I think it's. 00:59:12
Sort of a motion to put, yeah. 00:59:12
My. 00:59:16
We move this to the commissioners for the $59. 00:59:19
Bush Botany? Is there a second? 00:59:22

OK. 00:59:30
OK. And substantial completion, that's all good. 00:59:33
Yeah. So we have two documents in documents one. 00:59:36
OK, one space, one for the ambulance space filming. 00:59:40
Often to the substation. 00:59:44
Each Americans. 00:59:45

Now entertainment. 00:59:53
To allow. 00:59:55

As presented. 01:00:03
Tomorrow should I? Danny is there second. 01:00:06
Scott. 01:00:12
Think yeah, they. 01:00:15
If they added the values at workplace. 01:00:17
Yeah, I see that. 01:00:19
They normally you have it on there. 01:00:20
For Lego 3. 01:00:23
You know, I went through just kind of like get a life brand aware how this works. 01:00:24
They go through with substantial completion. 01:00:27
Even though. 01:00:30
You've got a tenant moved in. 01:00:31
They put their checklist, the punch list, together. 01:00:34
Any little thing that needs to be correct is. 01:00:37
And can you state paper that's pictures of some of those items? 01:00:39
You know there's modeling on that. 01:00:42
That model small thing. 01:00:44
Along with the week. 01:00:46
Things like that, but that would be great. 01:00:48
For further discussion. All in favor say aye aye. 01:00:50
You pubs. 01:00:54
I did receive 4 subliminals from that construction or Mon. 01:01:02
Charlie, pray. 01:01:08
I had he had the resolution identified. 01:01:10
Scared staff. 01:01:15
Look for appointment on 3rd member. 01:01:21
Does anyone in particular want to? 01:01:36
This is for. 01:01:38
But it's just yeah, yeah, the next item is gonna be the demo one. 01:01:40
Yeah, this is for the actual book RPG, not each other queue. 01:01:43
The commissioners did sign the. 01:01:50
Resolution that we drafted. 01:01:52
Connecting the call. 01:01:54
Yes, that's what the point they're saying. 01:01:55
Yes, I just want to make sure. 01:01:58
We're on the same page. People are good. 01:02:00
And then we'll come back whenever the committee comes back. 01:02:02
Evaluates and scores of. 01:02:05
Back makes up. 01:02:07
Recommendation. 01:02:09
Well, they turn into a. 01:02:10
Negotiation period? What's that? 01:02:12
So yeah, yeah, there's a whole other step after that, but yeah. 01:02:14
I'm not here. 01:02:25
How funny would be the best way some fees does quite big, Commissioner. It's telling government, yeah, that's kind of around, 01:02:26
yeah. 01:02:30
Some laws on there now. 01:02:35
Bob myself. I mean, you want to do it. Sad. 01:02:37
Hey, I mean, it doesn't matter. I mean, if you don't, I mean, I, I'll, I'll do it. 01:02:41
If whoever wants you to do it, OK. 01:02:46
I do have a question just out of curiosity. 01:02:56
Garmongue, are they? 01:02:59
Who just called? 01:03:01
You know there. 01:03:02
Never heard of the chief Achilles steel? 01:03:04
Thank you so much for that being home sounds. 01:03:07
What do you mean market or yes, that sounds very familiar. She. 01:03:09
Registered president of the council in Washington County. I think so. 01:03:13
Work with radius. 01:03:17
OK, OK. That's how I know today. 01:03:18
We've engaged Armand before. 01:03:21
Yeah, and we can move forward. So I just did. 01:03:23
Not trying, just asking. I think I recognize the other freaking ****. 01:03:27
So we don't think there's. 01:03:34
Well, I don't know what the Commissioner said. You may as well have. 01:03:36
In our resolution, yeah. 01:03:42
So we just identified the person. Yeah, well. 01:03:47
Yeah, undominate, Rich, Thank you. Thank you. 01:03:50
Have any friends? 01:03:54
Member of the committee. It's real similar to me to be volatile. 01:03:57
They're saying they'll say thank you, Cortana. 01:04:02
You know. 01:04:06
Hurry up and get that. 01:04:08
Motion carries. 01:04:14
OK demo. 01:04:16
So this side on. 01:04:17
I I put out a request to. 01:04:20
10 different programs. 01:04:23
But you got one quote. 01:04:25
I have one statement today for too busy for my students. 01:04:27
So Connor was the only one. 01:04:33
Never respond to CVS didn't respond. That's interesting. Yeah. 01:04:35
There's one. 01:04:39
Airport is 100 and. 01:04:44
The estimates of the architect was 38,000. Yeah, yeah. 01:04:46
I'm gonna flashback to the health department. I just. 01:04:54
Which so I. 01:04:59
I I was under the impression that this was gonna be under. 01:05:03
As Holly, to do that, I'm just asking for a request for those. 01:05:05
I rewards I could. 01:05:11
Attempt to do more quotes still and follow up with some of these people to get a. 01:05:14
The commissions will be the ones going into. 01:05:20
Right couch. 01:05:22
You guys are seeking direction on how new led to proceed, whether we would like to go ahead with this? 01:05:27
I think we do. 01:05:33
Our our challenge. 01:05:34
Is is the the ready funds, the ready funds and payment for those that don't know we were provided. 01:05:36
Additional 500 and. 01:05:43
16 Yeah, like weeks ago. 01:05:44
But I've got already its last meeting. 01:05:48
The issue is the timeline for. 01:05:51
Initial draw, well I cannot get an answer from ABC or River Hills on the flexible and they are with that so we wanted to get. 01:05:54
Something that we can. 01:06:04
It's certainly a question for. 01:06:05
Of that August 21st. 01:06:09
At that morning and this was the thing we identified as think we could be done. 01:06:11
No, that's at. 01:06:20
It is so. 01:06:21
OK, hello. 01:06:24
Hello, my thought was that. 01:06:26
Perhaps I could try to get a couple more? 01:06:29
Seattle. 01:06:31
Can't get a better quote. 01:06:35
Hey Cortana, this recommendation of commissioners. 01:06:37
See what? 01:06:40
At the same time, it would definitely be cheaper if we could include it in the box. 01:06:43
I'm sure that the Satan's there, we'd be there, but there would be no we don't to lose the money, we have to. 01:06:48
Then you can't use it for soft cost. 01:06:54
I I would recommend trying to get at least one more. 01:07:00
Hopefully too. 01:07:03
And then? 01:07:04
It's not allowed. If not, it needs to be sent out in the field tables. 01:07:06
Fairness to Canada. 01:07:12
They need an opportunity to resubmit as well or withdraw their. 01:07:13
Because everybody's got their number. 01:07:17
You know I'm. 01:07:24
How do you kind of house to put it back out to everybody again? Leave. 01:07:25
Yeah, 3. 01:07:31
Yeah. 01:07:32
And then? 01:07:33
We could always do us. 01:07:34
I mean, you can try to get a quick turn around and we can do a special meeting. 01:07:35
To get approved. 01:07:39
Passed on. 01:07:40
Assembled a week away. 01:07:42
So the idea was to get this. 01:07:44
Awarded. Recommended. 01:07:47
For award. 01:07:49
Go to the next commissioner meeting. 01:07:50
Get them under contract, get them mobilized so we can show some money being. 01:07:53
Right. 01:07:56
That's what we talked to, so it's revealing their quote. Does that cause issues? That's what I'm at. 01:07:58
It's the. 01:08:03
Yeah, I mean, I think they're public. 01:08:09
I think the Republic, right, It's all publicly correct, yeah. 01:08:11
So, Justin. 01:08:15
What's the public works requirements for procurement? 01:08:17
We we try to do it with an RFQ, right? 01:08:23
Yeah, we can send it because we we. 01:08:27
Totally anticipated. 01:08:29
We just requested to close it. 01:08:31
Let me just take a more. 01:08:33
Expected it to be less than 50. 01:08:38
Is there a? 01:08:40
You have to get a certain amount of quotes. 01:08:41
Provision. 01:08:44
No, no. Well, not under 250,000, right? You've got to keep it up. 01:08:46
Forbid. 01:08:51
You have to get but our. 01:08:52
You you're supposed to get. 01:08:54
You can just go and get clothes and yeah, you should. 01:08:58
I think you have to reach out to at least three. 01:09:02
Well, they're, they're, they're certainly others that can reach out to. I mean, they're. 01:09:08
There's. I mean, I see your list. 01:09:12
With others, we can. 01:09:14
Got no advice. 01:09:17
Last request. So for the ready money this needs to be started or does it need to be substantially? 01:09:20
So the thought was. 01:09:27
You at least get a mobilization draw. 01:09:28
They may not physically have. 01:09:32
Starting with, they're logged in. 01:09:34
Yeah. 01:09:35
And we still have. 01:09:39
Don't let him. 01:09:42
I've been seven days. 01:09:44
And we need to invite at least three quotes. 01:09:46
Let's try to look for the language play in the next step. 01:09:50
So. 01:09:55
The commissioners be. 01:09:57
I'm at six. 01:09:59
Of July, July. 01:10:01
So wait, I haven't put out another request in half the seven days, but then we would. 01:10:03
So he told me that. 01:10:09
Monday 1st. 01:10:12
For 6:30 Monday. 01:10:15
Yeah, this happens. That's OK. 01:10:18
That's OK, I've seen it. Because 4th of July Saturday, yeah. 01:10:20
That's all right. 01:10:24
I think did they move it to? 01:10:25
Tonight. 01:10:27
That's OK. 01:10:28
So we can and it doesn't get. 01:10:30
That gives me. 01:10:33
Good, you could. 01:10:34
There's a joint meeting on the 15th as well. 01:10:36
Is it that schedule? 01:10:38
Is that right? 01:10:40
That writing everything is that. 01:10:41
Yeah, 6 month. 01:10:42
I don't know. I've still. 01:10:44
Yes, they're all open to the public, and yes, we've done all. 01:10:47
Right, but. 01:10:51
If you want to request him, we can reject all quotes submitted right? So we can redo. 01:10:52
What we're just talking about. 01:10:56
Just gonna send mail. 01:10:58
Think sometimes seven days before. 01:10:59
You asked for the bag. 01:11:02
Yeah, I think it's gotta be worth trying to get. 01:11:09
I guess the question is, do we want to try to make the? 01:11:19
She had to show movement of money by the end of August. 01:11:23
Is that right? 01:11:26
August 21st is when. 01:11:29
August 21st. 01:11:31
Document that invoices and stuff are needed by representative. 01:11:32
March 17th. 01:11:46
Let's go into that private no? 01:11:49
Next week is. 01:11:56
Is it? It's a test week because you got. 01:11:58
40s last being observed on July 3rd. 01:12:00
Which is attractive? 01:12:03
Give me a bunch of life. 01:12:14
6. 01:12:15
Alright, I mean it is a demo. 01:12:20
It it it it's a little different 'cause you've been just doing demo. Can you make? 01:12:24
Phone calls and say. 01:12:27
Are you interested in all? If you are, submit. 01:12:30
Instead of. 01:12:33
An e-mail that might get lost. 01:12:33
And the deadline for the submissions back should be the meeting. 01:12:35
Recording 3 minutes. 01:12:39
That's all. The second it could be due back to seven. 01:12:41
But don't. 01:12:44
So we have to meet. 01:12:46
In advance, Well, do we do we need to provide a recommendation or we can have a discussion as to? 01:12:47
Issues. Yeah, we don't have to. 01:12:53
As of right now, we don't have choice, so we don't accept the one right. 01:12:57
Well, if that's the case, then having it back 7th is. 01:13:01
That's that's bad. 01:13:04
You hate anytime you submit a quote or a bit. 01:13:06
We hate to have to come back. 01:13:11
From a holiday weekend. 01:13:13
Do that by. 01:13:15
It gives them that money to finalize their number. 01:13:17
Does that make sense? 01:13:21
Oh yeah, yeah. 01:13:23
Yeah. 01:13:28
So. 01:13:29
I guess. 01:13:31
We are looking. 01:13:34
Suggest a motion to reject. 01:13:37
The bid proceed. Thank you, Reed. 01:13:41
To allow Nick to. 01:13:44
Solicit quotes again. 01:13:46
That will be due on July 7th at the. 01:13:50
Commissioner B. 01:13:53
Family Commissioner. 01:13:54
4 How about 4:00 Four o'clock 20. 01:13:56
That day, whenever. 01:14:00
Whatever that would be good for you. 01:14:01
To get it ready. 01:14:03
So but do that day. 01:14:06
You're just scratching all the time. 01:14:08
To hopefully allow us to secure. 01:14:12
More than one quote. 01:14:14
Yeah. So that'd be, I'd entertain that motion. 01:14:18
That's not I'll make the motion. 01:14:21
OK, go ahead. 01:14:23
Second. Second by Daniel. 01:14:25
Any further discussion on that? I do like the idea. 01:14:27
Is is it acceptable? 01:14:29
To also make phone calls. 01:14:31
Yeah. 01:14:33
For documentation, no no no, make e-mail. It's in the e-mail for sure. 01:14:35
But also called any patterns that you are, I'm gonna give you a list. 01:14:40
Pick it up, I'll provide you. 01:14:46
Any further discussions? 01:14:49
Local favorites say aye. 01:14:50
Motion carries. Yeah, I'll send you a list this afternoon. 01:14:52
Before we adjourn a couple of. 01:14:58
We have the ribbon cutting. 01:15:03
One July. 01:15:05
I think it's a story has. 01:15:13
Period of the invite, said the government. 01:15:16
Together, we have three people waiting on confirmation. Yeah, he's coming, I mean. 01:15:18
Town, the town. Yeah, he's coming 3:30 to 4:30 and they were going to say this thing starts at 3:00. 01:15:22
OK, thanks. 01:15:28
He's 36 technically, but. 01:15:29
Because there's like. 01:15:32
I have 40 minutes or whatever of the. 01:15:33
Ribbon cutting and speechifying and whatever. And then there's a. 01:15:36
What you call a speaking self self-guided tour through the bill. 01:15:41
We're going to have employees. 01:15:44
Don't answer questions about it so you can move through fast. 01:15:46
You can stop. 01:15:49
And sample some of the beer we've rooted. 01:15:50
From. 01:15:52
Get we took to space. 01:15:53
Yeah. 01:15:56
Fiscal Tacos is catering and Fistful of Ale. 01:15:58
Root beer that we gave that the yeast had different fluids face. 01:16:01
So you'll have some sweet spirit. 01:16:06
Space, space, space. They call it Red Dragon. 01:16:08
So that's that. That's the 20th. It's also happens to be the. 01:16:12
Anniversary of the Apollo 11 moon landing. 01:16:16
Just worked out that way. 01:16:19
Now this is. 01:16:22
Probably. 01:16:25
What happened? But. 01:16:26
I'm invited Vice President Pence. 01:16:27
And after months of saying. 01:16:31
That date's not going to work. You can't make it. 01:16:34
They actually reached out yesterday with some additional questions about the event. 01:16:36
They don't. He gets surprised. He gets surprised. We don't know. 01:16:41
But we know Governor Prong. 01:16:44
That would be pretty. They don't get no problem. 01:16:48
Bob, you'll be there, right? 01:16:50
Absolutely so So because we've got the tour and everything that goes with it. 01:16:54
We're keeping the speeches down. No, I was followed up by the. 01:16:59
I was led to the Vice President. 01:17:02
The important people are gonna be there. Yeah, yeah, yeah. 01:17:04
So we have. 01:17:14
Like the the the groundbreaking, we had a lot of people and. 01:17:16
I want to fish off so I mean I'm speaking, but because we're. 01:17:20
Really tight on time. 01:17:22
It's basically just going to be our CBO. 01:17:24
Our Our Space Group president, John Bellinger. 01:17:27
The governor that's. 01:17:31
That's about it. That's awesome. 01:17:32
That's great because we wanna, we gotta keep it going. No, no, no. And you guys are, you want all the logistics? That's fantastic. 01:17:34
We're unveiling the big statue that's going to be covered. 01:17:38
Yeah, we're gonna be on that and. 01:17:43
Yeah, I said that. I know it's. 01:17:45
I was vetted and played it through. 01:17:51
I'll get my list. 01:17:54
I was like, this is serious stuff here, don't don't answer wrong. At first we were gonna allow any. 01:17:56
Foreign nationals. 01:18:07
But now we've got. 01:18:11
Kind of areas roped off we're gonna. 01:18:12
Closing curtains on some things so we totally can't have. 01:18:14
I don't know that we would expect any. 01:18:17
You know Chinese spies, but you know we're prepared for us. 01:18:20
Yeah, that was fine kind. 01:18:25
I believe there go to I'm supposed to be continuing education, but I'm good. 01:18:27
And I'll be there, OK? It's good, yeah. 01:18:31
Yes, this one. 01:18:33
No, no, no, no. 01:18:35
Yeah, I'll make it rich. Yeah, that's not being in contact about it. I was just waiting on the time. Last time we spoke, it was. 01:18:36
Up in the air for the morning or. 01:18:43
Yeah, you know, and Aaron, how should I just really hated for her not to be able to come but. 01:18:45
This workout or she might come early in the morning. 01:18:49
So we'll, we'll do a private tour for her if she has to come over. 01:18:53
Yeah, she was there for the grandma. She wants him. 01:18:57
With a broken foot. 01:19:00
OK. 01:19:05
Anything else? The dedication class? OK, real quick. 01:19:06
So we've. 01:19:11
We were talking about, I think Commonwealth science is. 01:19:12
Paying for this dedication black I think they're they're making for free, I think but. 01:19:14
But it should be a dedication plot not for red wire, but for. 01:19:20
Floyd County and building #5 and whatever. So there's been some discussion around about what names are on it and what does it say 01:19:24
and my recommendation. 01:19:29
From. 01:19:34
My from this chair is that it literally says like Nova Park building #5 at the top of the plaque dedication date. So we're not. 01:19:36
This is not something we're going to do on. 01:19:42
July 20th. We'll put this up later. 01:19:45
Dedication. 01:19:48
It's got. 01:19:49
You know county officials names on it. 01:19:50
And then I think there will be. 01:19:54
Rovar, CEO. 01:19:56
Just three people there. Well, I. 01:19:58
But I think there ought to be a phrase or something about dedicated to something. 01:20:00
Fostering innovation in Floyd County, or you know, you know, something like that. 01:20:04
And there's a good spot outside the building. 01:20:09
That I think would be good. I could send around a picture. But anyway that I think what I'd recommend and it's right under a light 01:20:13
under the covered area up front. 01:20:16
Great. It's kind of odd shape, but. 01:20:20
I've been, as I travel, I've taken pictures of dedicated information, blacks around the country, you know, just to get mad. Yeah, 01:20:23
yeah. Just get some ideas. And so I'll take a crack at maybe some. 01:20:28
A sentence or two, you know. 01:20:33
Yeah, all you guys, the long lines of dedicated to fostering innovation then. 01:20:35
I like totally enterprise. 01:20:40
I think that's something. Keep it. 01:20:43
Succinct. Yeah. Yeah, 'cause it's, it's our plot is that. No, it's fantastic. So I know. 01:20:45
OK, one question, I have those do we? 01:20:50
Do we put anything about? 01:20:53
IUS on there because I I don't know whether. 01:20:55
They'll be there and. 01:20:57
Five years, you don't know. I don't know. 01:20:59
You could you could say. 01:21:02
Fostering innovation. 01:21:04
And education? That's a nod to. 01:21:06
Without specifically saying you don't, you don't know if they're going to. Yeah, it's it's a tough one. Well, there were going to 01:21:09
be 3 names from Red Wire. 01:21:12
They're down, down further, you guys are. 01:21:16
My vision of the plot, you guys, said Billy. 01:21:19
Yeah. 01:21:22
Why don't you take a sip? 01:21:23
OK, we can. 01:21:25
It will look at the workshop middle decision. 01:21:27
OK. 01:21:29
All right, you get created. 01:21:30
Yeah, afterwards, that kind of stuff. Well, I, I'm just getting. 01:21:31
Probably found the pictures of these. 01:21:34
Yeah. 01:21:37
They're motivated. We're gonna see one. Take a look. 01:21:38
All right. Thank you, Nick. 01:21:41
