hold on I make a motion to go open the meeting for the second of June I'll second
all in favor hi 45 minutes between my PT and my doctor's appointment my doctor's next
appointment wasn't there so they brought me in and couldn't get any better so I go back in
Monday. Oh. What?
Me?
What?
Do you redo it?
I'm sorry to hear that.
They're going to try a closed manual manipulation, which means they put me under and bend it.
But there's a risk of breaking you.
Oh, God.
So if it doesn't work closed, then they've got to open it back up, provided the O hours available Monday in Lancash.
Real.
No.
Well, he wasn't surprised. He said, I'd be honest with you because I was anticipating this.
I said, really? He said, yeah, you and me was been nice to give you the heads up.
He said, you should have done it 10 years ago when you thought about doing it by the other one.
But you know how it is?
So I came across 145. That's kind of rough.
We've been playing in the road for a couple days.
Yeah.
eight more right they'll let you out really help I've been taken in an hour of any
old so like to be at meetings on time oh yep you get through a few more of
passing over there's a lot to sign of there's nothing really of significance
it must be phone bill time late though you like Krista yeah yeah
Cheryl has a lot of warrants in there for us this week she needs that sign for the
state all we have to do is
Each one of us, that's a sign in there.
Yeah, this is...
Oh, that's just...
Yeah, yeah.
The reason we're signing this again is that Cheryl found a typo from last week
because she would, they're pushing, remember we're pushing it to get all done.
So before we send it to Paul, Nwanda, she redid it and everything.
I think Cheryl's money today, you know if you go?
That's money.
Mm-hmm.
I got to my...
You're not past, do you?
No, I'm fine.
Well, I won.
Indeed, you or I were on the board at that one.
That one time, finally.
I think that was a time where he came back.
Oh, what was in the right?
That's it.
The suts and that's where we'll be signing it.
We got some more money from the inter-local stuff.
Oh, good.
I thought it was going to be more.
be more but what did they conflict with everything's all everything helps
so they were working to make sure all the bills were paid out so
so that should be so that's probably it to them huh yeah I think so yeah
the right across is even more the way they're just going to rip the sticker
up you see you've been coming back to
Lisa
just a world.
Perfect.
You can mail ourselves or at least I'm just the phone
they have felt that is usually like
each company that keeps it like 10 years
and then they'll change things again.
That's how it's been in the fast.
I wear, well.
I do too, but another one of the first time.
I know, like I wash them
every time.
I love this company
I love gardening,
but I hate their own.
I love gardening but I hate their own.
I'll just get the thing all settled with the state on.
All the love of love.
Yep.
Ten me a plan.
Oh, they did?
Yeah, that.
Because last, I knew A-up had signed off on that,
because there were a couple things she wanted to tweak.
I don't understand you were.
She said that all the things
that signed way.
She can't get them.
She's so excited to tell them.
The government.
They were looking to get it.
Very much forward.
But she was going to make a lot more
they wanted to.
Yeah.
Yeah.
associated it and they ended up
you know up more than they want
if they want to give all
to help me.
And I was going to come in here
and have a Cheryl
to drop you an email
and ask if I, you know,
if she could contact here.
So it all, it was all funny how that all worked out.
Not too bad.
I don't know if I should be scared or happy.
Every time we see you, you
you never know what to expect.
I know.
I know.
to get things done.
Not yet.
Cheryl just gave it to me when I walked in.
We look like we're doing halfway decent.
I got up sitting in a certain
I mean, there's things we have no control over.
And we get up and should all take home
and three or three or four of a week.
Well, it's like you got your telephone.
You know, that's...
You know, that's...
No.
No.
But I mean, that's the one that's the one that's
someone that's on every department.
I will let them move.
Yep, okay.
Ricky is not going to make it.
He's getting another load of water right now
for the roads.
So we said to tell you everything's going well
with the weather he expects to be caught up by next week.
Is this something?
No, that was something that was before we was on.
Just letting us know that it settled.
Okay.
And even if it weren't, that's one that I wouldn't
they'll have nothing to do with those phones to be able to take care of those expenses for him
I'm sure that's the compact right there yeah contact was yes it was seven thousand something I think
it was a quick little ten all together yeah because he had three set aside
yeah it was up there on that good
they're all on a lot
I have something here for you did.
The original, I couldn't give you the originals,
but I have to make you copies to bring them in.
Actually, a guy walking across country in the kilts.
They're not first from.
Those are from Cornwall.
They're actual postcards.
Oh.
You're looking for it in the heather, huh?
I don't think there's any gold in the heirs.
This is me?
Yes, sir.
Thank you.
I figured you'd get a kick out of that.
I didn't need to be anything.
I didn't.
I meant to say it casually that
doesn't need one.
Yeah, but you weren't in the mood.
Yeah.
That's okay.
This is what kind of funding was poor.
Mm-hmm.
You look through our therapy,
five days a week instead of two after this.
To make sure you have you.
How are you?
Good.
I'll go back for it.
I like that.
Not bad.
Not that.
Not that.
You get to wood off that,
but yeah.
It's right here.
Is it for that?
Yeah.
See where we go there?
Yeah.
We have a glass on the weekend.
Oh, you know.
Yeah.
We have to make a ride.
Beautiful deep fried
yeah.
Yeah.
And we never been to scowal palms.
Yeah?
Yeah.
Probably.
Very many.
No.
No?
No.
Oh.
Beautiful aren't.
Oh.
A lot of it is a lot of it is small.
A lot of it.
One of it.
I don't know.
Yeah, for part of it.
I'm not seeing in there.
I've seen Otter up in there.
So you saw the new bridge.
Yeah, beautiful.
You know what the old one looks like, so you don't know.
Right.
Yeah, but it's a nice bridge.
It's a beautiful spot back there.
Quiet.
There's only one.
They were the only one.
Miss left it.
I think they said that $100,000 is $100,000.
What was that?
Going up there, I think when they've given us the report on the grid.
I think that project is like $100,000.
It's rich.
Just let you go take a look out of it.
Is that between the old camps and the pond things,
a terrible point?
No, it's right.
When you turn off from the main stem of Indian,
down where it always used to flood with a divisive plane.
The divas of playing, right there would always walk out.
They took out that big culvert that was there and put a bridge in.
Oh.
So they did all that, and then they were going to talk about maybe letting the dam go?
Not at this point.
Those two dams are safe.
Yes.
Let's just see it with you.
They had a chance to talk to Eric stole before the meeting.
And he's the fishing game commissioners.
Yeah.
When I heard about it, I let it.
him out of what I heard was possibly happening and he had to go to punk
the next day anyway.
And I talked to the guy from DES that was at the headwaters meeting.
I didn't want to tell you his name, I thought, you know.
Corby clock.
Yeah.
Good job show.
They got their hands full with Murphy name right now in the project they get going on there.
Yeah.
So it's going to be three three to five years.
three or five years project
I told the other day when they went
with all the business
and they told them what they have to follow
something.
Not from the law.
What's that?
I saw you out there morning a lawn.
What's that?
I saw you out there morning a lawn.
Thank you, sir.
He said,
he knows what he's doing.
Is that set up by a boundary or
does it touch a cord or?
GPS.
Oh, GPS.
If I can find.
GPS coordinates like you can really screw them out.
It's $10 to each.
Yes.
You can mow the whole town of bits for him.
That's what we do with the cemeteries.
You have to map the only five more.
That's what we get in for.
I believe those are a phone type of item.
Cool.
Does that it be heat?
Does that thing work at night time, Joe?
If you want it to,
if you take it off, the lawn goes off.
Which is your other have?
Which are they have?
He's, uh, skatering today.
Let me have to use the skin.
Program it over there.
When it gets stuck, does it get, does it work itself out?
It's like...
It will, but not.
It's like a rumba. You've got to go out there and help it a little.
It's like in a truck.
The bond furniture.
And it had a slip.
And you get slippery on the slope, it slips out.
That's pretty good.
Yeah.
The first time I had seen them in Scotland,
few of the castles that had big gardens with a big green grass
and used them.
They had one that had kind of gone and got stuck.
Oh.
You know, the last one person,
the way I think she's on vacation.
That's second generation or third generation, right?
Second, I believe.
The first one, you've got to bury all the lines.
Oh, okay.
And I've done that.
before the house fire.
It's not fun.
You know it's to keep your dogs in, right?
Yes.
They didn't keep the kids in.
No.
Ended up over on the porch.
Waiting for me to get home tomorrow.
Yeah.
That's been many years ago from the old shop.
You must have the lines go in, right?
Yes.
And his brand new one, like that one is not set up yet.
I'm like, you can hide me.
I'm just set it.
I'm just saying, I don't like,
what's a little old.
No, I don't wait so.
exactly like Sydney for rumors.
The watch is John.
John brought that flag in.
There's not much wrong.
It flew in somewhere for a certain amount of time.
He wanted to run an idea by you guys
to perhaps, like if we want to honor somebody
and give them a flag with a certificate
that says this flag was on
in town calling for one year.
Yeah.
Because that must have been the five by nine.
That's the bigger.
So rather than put it out there,
he put it there so that I've remembered it.
Talk to you guys about his idea.
But I probably don't know.
The park they had the black planters
between the things that he take those?
He moved them?
Yes.
They were...
To where did they move to?
Over by the roller?
Or.
Oh, okay.
I'll wait from it.
Yeah, there was too much stuff there.
The day for the death of the United States of America.
I pledge allegiance to the side of the United States of America
and to the Republic for which it stands,
one nation, a under God, indivisible, with liberty and the justice for all.
I'll make the motion to approve the minutes.
I'll make that motion.
I'll second it.
favor?
Hi.
The agenda addressment.
The department reports.
Ricky is not going to be here tonight.
Rick?
PD as usual.
Just minor complaints and minor calls is passing in.
280 issues, nothing serious.
I've dealt with.
That's it.
They didn't want so far.
Did you have any complaints about Shantah Road?
Shatton Road?
No.
S-H-H-A-N-J-N-G.
Do you?
Okay.
Okay.
I have a phone call today.
I've talked about it.
Okay.
Any questions, Sue?
Yeah.
Any questions?
Sue?
No.
Go on and sewer?
Um, we had, uh, we took, last week, we took the monitoring well, samples at Murphy Dam,
and set them off to the labs.
Phil Laramie is going to be here to install the new pump.
install the new pumps at the Mill Street pump house.
It's going to have new pumps, wiring and foot connections on June 15th and 16th.
And I've got John Boland's come to pump up the tanks so it'll be dry on the 14th,
then we'll be standby on the 15th.
That's it.
Any questions?
Any questions?
You foresee any interruptions around in?
No.
No.
Question.
Transfer station, as far as I know, it's running a small way.
Mm-hmm.
Got a training, checking with it, right?
Does the park report anything?
The parks, no?
Um, were you going to report the park?
No.
Or you had someone got locked in the woman's room.
She never got her night.
She literally did have a Swiss iron knife and got herself up.
So, the dead bolt broke.
So he was going to call Mark.
This is, I guess.
key like I had the impression, but we, I was there.
He got her.
He basically, he took, went back and took it apart and the piece broke off the back side where
you bring it over to set.
So it locks, it locks itself when you don't want it to.
And probably going, instead of having a key lock on it,
I'm probably just going to do a dead, simple dead bolt for it.
both for, instead of a fancy deadpoles.
But the door handle locks, right?
Yes.
I don't know why the had both.
Okay.
I just wonder, I'm like, why that two?
It has a push button, you know,
and it locks the door.
I don't know why it had two.
I didn't know why it had two either.
I honestly didn't realize it had two.
Don't want over.
She did.
Yeah.
Did you?
Matt Kohler.
Matt Kohler would like to come to a meeting.
He's from Eversource.
He wants to come in on June 16th with his vegetation management representative.
He wanted to talk about their tree branch trimming procedures.
So are you guys okay with them coming on the 16th?
We should have to remind ourselves to make mention of the issues we had this.
of the issues we had this past winter with that in the Aspen, lack of of traffic control.
We didn't need to wait a lot when it melted it.
It's horrible.
Those are scary.
Those are absolutely a bad thing to leave, but they're everywhere.
Yes, you right?
No to make it too.
So I had a call from a woman who has a home on Shanta Road.
It's off of Old
country lane?
It's a private road.
She was calling because she was complaining about ATVs
driving on her road and all the dust that they sent out.
She wanted to ask that we salt her road
to prevent the dust.
So I said, well, it's a private road.
Nothing we can do there.
But she felt that.
she pays taxes, so she's entitled.
And she wanted to know when the town allowed ATVs to go on the roads.
So, well, it's not a town road.
But I looked up, there was a public hearing way back in 2010.
So I told her all that.
I told her she should come to a meeting.
She explained that she doesn't live here.
She just comes up on the weekends to relax.
So I told her I would bring it up.
But I don't know that there's much they can do other than hire someone themselves.
Nothing we can do about the desk on that, that would be...
So we already know about it.
So we used to go to the APD question.
I'd like to resolve the issues when they come up.
So we had a guy ask us the same questions.
So we, if I was trying to tell me.
I was trying to tell him this morning that lives on the same road.
Okay.
And so the ATV club was granted the right-of-way
from Parishyman and Timber.
So that's how we bought that.
And we offered them a back of chloride.
Oh.
We just felt like we couldn't, we can't spread it.
Because we have no way of doing it,
but we offered them chloride.
So just waiting to hear.
Okay.
Perfect.
Thank you.
They did have an issue with, I guess, wanted to
for the first time they were going pretty fast, but,
and so they were really concerned with that.
But I said, we don't patrol it, but we're going to help all about that.
She said the dust was worse because
Eversource had Aspland cut back a lot of their vegetation.
So they were noticing it more,
probably the noise and the dust.
Yeah.
You didn't say anything about the noise.
He just said about the dust, and we said,
yeah, we got Chlor, we can give you some quarry to you.
Okay.
Very good.
Thank you.
Yeah, problem solved.
I think we don't make my own department head during the TV season.
I also saw our on social media, Day Road Day,
and I wanted to make sure that we were all aware.
It looks like quite an event on Day Road.
I was hoping Ricky would be here to see what his schedule was.
Are you right?
A sun-filled day of...
It's a green acres, correct?
It's everywhere.
It's green acres and it's that outfit and an outfitter.
And a couple of things, so you know, we do.
Yeah.
I guess they're encouraging everyone who lives on Day Road
to have, like, lemonade stands and yard sales.
They want the whole road to be busy.
That's the 27.
That's what I kind of listed down forward.
The last time we talked with Ricky, he didn't think there's no stuff,
there's no stuff that there for family until August.
Well, it would be nice that they, like, let town know so that we could make sure.
It would be nice to coordinate with Rick to see, you know.
Yeah.
So they were having an AT meeting or something on two to four.
And one of the awards is the loudest.
Oh, I thought you got to get it.
That's what it said.
Well, seriously?
Read the ad.
The ad?
Well, number one, we don't have a red permit pulled.
So that excludes any exceptions for the day.
So they have any, I'm not trying to be a Debbie Downer, but...
No, we went through that with the snowmobile and the one permit, the one statute is for the
snowmobile and the other one is for the off-road vehicle.
So you're 100% correct.
Who's the audience?
Do you know who...
You don't need to say who's supposed to that?
I think it's point north.
I think it's north.
What is they called?
The flight, sure.
I'll talk to it.
He usually pretty decent.
It might have meant it's probably just an oversight.
Well, it doesn't matter that the exhaust thing is on our hands in fishing.
That's fine.
I'm not about you.
Yeah, there is a little logo over here for points more outfitters,
but it doesn't seem.
I'll see them.
Do you want you can have a...
Thank you.
Thank you very.
Yeah.
Thank you.
That's all I have.
I'm sure.
Sexton is my here.
I don't need.
Lisa?
You have some...
Why don't you sit here?
Because you want to tell you
on camera.
All right.
Hi, everybody.
So I'm Dr. Lisa Beechoff.
I'm the health officer at the town of Pittsburgh.
So most of you that don't know me.
don't know me.
I'd like to provide a brief and transparent update on a case I've been working on involving
hazardous debris cleanup properties connected to the Ricksilba asbestos matter.
In March, a house of 2361, North Main Street was illegally burned.
The New Hampshire Department of Environmental Services required that all debris be tested for
asbestos before any material was new.
Wendy and Pryos began being relocated to another of these properties without the required testing.
I began working closely with the state, and I issued a cease and desist order for the following properties.
Sunset campgrounds and cabin rentals, Ms. Sally Cones, 2361, North Main Street, 2356 North Main Street, and Engwins Trailer Park Drive.
Since then, I've been working close.
since then, I've been working closely with the New Hampshire Department of Environmental Services
and the Solid Waste Division to ensure the cleanup follows all states and federal regulations.
Testing confirmed that demolition debris at the main house site does contain asbestos.
Because of that, the cleanup must follow strict, regulated safety procedures.
This is a controlled process.
Over the next several days, you will see licensed asbestos professionals.
asbestos professionals working at these locations.
They will be wearing full protective suits and respirators.
I want to emphasize that this protective gear is required for their close range work
and does not mean the surrounding community is in danger,
but obviously avoid those areas while they are actively working at the site.
The debris will be carefully inspected, sorted, and packaged for proper disposal,
a license asbestos.
asbestos, abatement contractor will manage the work, and an industrial hygienist will oversee safety and sampling throughout the process.
All waste will be transported to an approved disposal facility.
The seances' order shall remain in effect until all required work has been completed and formally approved
by the New Hampshire Department of Environmental Services and the local health officer.
No construction, renovation,
renovation or other site activity other than authorized asbestos abatement may occur
on these properties while the cease and assist order is in effect.
We are committed to keeping the public informed so that no one is left in the dark
about what they are seeing.
If you have any questions as the work moves forward, please contact the town office.
Thank you.
Thank you.
Have anything else?
Um, nope.
Nope, so the entry is next week.
So if anybody needs food, please come to see me 10 to 2 at the fire station.
Any questions for Lisa?
Excellent job.
Fire the fountain.
I'm now here.
I'm only scheduled speaker that don't see any action items.
I didn't see any.
Old business?
Yeah, thank you very.
No business.
I did see it in Facebook this week.
this week that somebody wanted to do Farmers Market.
I did print it out so I don't know whom it was.
But it was not on the, my first thought was too.
We had those on the Town Common before and what they weren't going to have and they're
apparently going to have it.
Do you know what was?
Yeah, they reached out to me.
Actually, it's, oh, Spalding, Jesse and Jamie.
Yeah.
They want us.
have local people come in, you know, with homemade treats and fruits and vegetables.
I didn't have a problem with it, but I said I'd have to vote into it, but I think it's absolutely fine.
It's on their property?
Right.
Yeah.
It shouldn't be.
Yeah.
But they were kind enough to tuck in.
There's a lot of public interest, so I think it'll be a nice thing to have.
The only thing is trap number three.
Because it's going to be right adjacent to Moose Cone Alley, the partner,
with parking and moosecone alley was ice cream grab and go.
This is going to be stay and sell costs that come and buy.
That's the only issue I do see is we're going to be branded that problem for through three.
So I'm going to stay consistent with the board's approval.
That's the only thing I would reiterate that they got up,
park them off the white line.
Because they park in that field for the area.
That's the field.
That's that field.
They don't like that whole area.
And I'm sure they, Jessica gets along with Jerry Gaffee.
You have parking over there for the, I don't know, I'm not organizing the event, but you put the vendors over there.
You walk over and let the rest of the parking, but it's the only thing I would.
Pretty much.
Any traffic issues, there will be on the people creating the issue and if you have to,
if the police, because you could do something that's doing their job.
Because you are 100% correct.
It's different than when the ice cream establishment was there.
This is you're going to go and you're going to wander around.
You're going to look.
Your time being there is longer.
Are they closer to that crest of the hill or?
By a little bit.
It's going to be tight no matter what.
But they have that right away that Jesse was talking about.
They need to show up.
You know, I don't know how I'm going to be there.
But the first time will be the areas.
Second time should be perfection.
Went to the hospital down to Colbrook last week.
He met with the Ebersource people.
There was a full room.
They don't have an exact date, but it's soon when they're going to start this project here.
It actually comes off of 1.45.
A couple individuals that talked about why they're going to start this project here.
about why they weren't going to remove the last two poles down here past the post office that are in the sidewalk,
this side of the sidewalk, because they're not going that far.
The project in Jefferson just got done, so I believe they're moving here next.
There is a crew currently in Jefferson that is moving telephone, internet, whatever, from the old pole to the new pole.
and removing the old poles.
Having said that, there's 1,500 current poles to be removed in the state of New Hampshire.
They hope all of these old poles will be gone by the end of the year.
They also talked, they would like to put two batteries up near First Lake Dam.
So if there's a problem down this way with power, they could backfeed
from those batteries. The two batteries are the size of two tractor trailer trucks.
They have some of these in Maine. I checked with the map, all that property is owned by the same
people that own the dam. I've talked to Tim Furrington at the dam. He has reached out to his
people. I have to reach out to this engineer tomorrow so those can stop
communicating with each other. They would paint them any color anybody would like.
The state shed is on by the state though, right?
Yeah, there's five acres of the state only and by it.
Ideal spot would be right near the cemetery because that's where the three days ends.
It gets pretty thin in there for some wheels.
Tim actually thought across the street.
Yeah, that's what I'm saying.
The other side.
There's nothing there.
And I personally, the
more out of sight, out of mind would be better. But that's just my opinion.
This week, other than the last one we had here last week.
So, I'd like to request as if Cheryl could reach out to the EMD director
and see if he can come next week.
He'd say he wanted to meet with the board.
The rest of the board is okay with that.
If he can make it next week, we can meet with him and answer any questions he has.
he has?
No.
Do you get anything?
No.
What was you going to report?
I just got a little information on that county issue.
Okay.
I've got some, I got the website of, so you get some information on it.
And it has to do with the very done report, and that was report on the condition of the
the existing county farm and a lot of info.
I haven't gotten through it.
It's 46 pages, but if you're interested,
you can get a copy off on the internet,
and I have that info if he wanted.
There is another meeting coming up.
It will be on the 10th.
Let me look here, 10th of June I do believe.
that's a report on basically I want to keep that, if you will.
But that's what I'm talking about.
The next meeting is Monday, July, 20th, 10 o'clock in Lancaster.
So not June 10?
No, I made a mistake.
That was the one that said.
What time?
10 o'clock, a.m.
and it'll be at that fishing game.
They're probably at that fishing game.
fishing game right below the state facility.
And I'm going to give, I'll let's let you copy that instead of me.
That's where I found that report that they can put work at so you can,
there's lots of information.
I haven't, I meant to sit with the classroom board.
They expressed interest and I didn't.
and I didn't make it. I think that meeting was last night. I didn't make it.
So, but I will ask, oh, you can meet you.
What do you want to do?
Any hand?
I mean, I think it's an issue.
That report, I got into a little bit of it.
It's kind of interesting, but there's a lot more I didn't get into it.
What do you think of what was in the Chronicle?
What do you think?
last week. That article kind of contradicts exactly what they're talking about and
I don't know. There's a lot to do you. You take this and go, thank you. You take this
with all that info. It's confusing to me. So I think you, I don't know how to actually attack this other
other than maybe the boards create a quorum or something, you know, and go to the
medium and ask the commissioners and because this is going to be, if they do something like
what they're talking, this is strategy, you know, it's going to be, that ain't the word,
but it's going to be a big issue for the counties, for the counties, for the, for the,
towns in the county's stuff. We're going to pay taxes regardless what they do.
And I'm concerned what they might be worked in college with our county farm.
If we want to conserve it, keep it for the future, I think we better pay attention, okay?
If you're not concerned with it, you feel, well, heaven came through all that way.
all that way so I can't know a little bit. So anyway, that's about the gesture of what I've got to tell. I don't have enough information. Would you like me to print a copy for you guys? Sure. How many pages of 46? Oh, let me, I'll look it up.
If you just have to print one and then all of us can share it, right.
And one of us gets down and the other one can print it.
But getting the internet information out there, it's, it's, it's public knowledge.
And there's a lot of information other than just said, a lot of information.
It's our, it's our county, it's our tax.
Well, I can probably get.
that made off scenes to kind of about that meeting before it happened.
Well, it depends, you know, if you, if you want to attend, then it'd be good.
And maybe with this report, you can get some questions.
They, uh, I addressed the meeting that other meeting and I went to and they were very, uh, they were very, they were very,
interested and yeah. So I'm sure they'd be more interested in select board comments.
And I'd like to agree with you, but they have, they never responded back to us.
Yeah, well.
Yeah. Well, there is a lot out there. Obviously, people talk about there.
Obviously, people talk public in the Republican meeting last week.
in Coburn's the last Tuesday night and Johnson would have once run for Congress, not Chris, was there.
And one person that saw me was going to go in here.
His idea is closed down both of his homes and build one new one down in Lancaster stock growth in Central located.
There's a lot of different angles on this to look at, without looking at the whole picture.
I think everybody's pretty, not awesome.
saying the whole thing is being watched it that's what I'm saying it's a big deal.
And now the thing that upset me was at that meaning, the question was asked, well, what are you going to do with the facility if you do close?
You were telling us that's a good issue.
And they said a section, well, I've got a little more information on section 8.
That's a north end of Worcestersdustown, the facility that's set up that way.
I don't know if it's such an annual income.
Just food for thought.
It was $48,000 last year for insect restoration.
That bug, cockroaches.
How did I come with that?
I don't want to disclose.
So I just had a little, quite a little reservation about
turning into sex.
turning into Section 8. I don't see it.
And that was probably Cheryl Bell to meet him, I don't know.
I made a comment to you that night that when you presented that to us, is that,
well, wait a minute, if they're moving the residents out of there and they're doing the work to put the Section 8 in there,
can't they do the work and keep the residents?
Well, see, I don't know what, I don't know what Section 8 would consume.
It may be private.
I've owned an infidly fund.
I don't know.
So do they fall under the same?
Do you know, Lisa, as far as that cost?
There's a lot and lots of questions.
My money involved in that?
Well, 30,000, 30 million to rehab that facility.
No, I mean the recoup money from whatever
organization, whether a state government or both,
federal, for that money.
For that money's.
It was Firefox that only previously.
I still think they owned it.
Home.
View.
That's who owned it years ago.
Because I remember, I knew somebody worked for all of them.
So that's actually housing in the, it's just not for us locals.
Because everybody, if you want to get a low rank in Manchester,
a low rank in Sioux Sound, it's cheap in Suisown that Manchester,
So ship them up here, just like I federal prison and state prison is done in Berlin.
Yeah, places sell, but you bring in a lot more.
Now I requested a tour, walkthrough of the county,
and I get here today that they're going to address that the next meeting in 20th.
Okay.
that will be the question would be brought up and then they'll address that then.
But the commission's meet once a month.
The commissioners meet once a month.
I don't know.
This is what I was...
You can call the county house and speak to whoever answers and ask when the next county
would meet the county commissioners meeting.
Well, that's what I understood.
And I thought that's a tent.
I think that's a time.
I was going to say, because I'm looking at the calendar.
Yeah.
where I got me.
It's usually a Wednesday, so you are correct.
Yeah.
And they said, and I had to comment, maybe we could get a few of us, because I'd like to tour it
to see what they're talking about.
I understand a little more about the fire situation, you know, why they would condemn it
because of the wood structure inside.
That makes sense.
But if we're going to get 23 million of federal money to go somewhere or whatever,
now they're looking for a new facility area and a new facility that would fit that criteria.
I think the question is going to be asked,
doesn't the facility in West Coast Town fit that criteria to get that full money?
To get the 30 million.
what they alluded to in the article I'm following you.
They alluded to is that they had to put an addition on an existing building.
They were seeing something about their building.
If they destroyed or if they took the correctional facility out of there,
that wouldn't qualify because then they're building a new structure somehow.
I found the article in the chronicle just as confusing and they were
and they were, I didn't know, they went one way and then they went another.
It left, there's a lot of option left open.
So we've got to narrow, somebody's going to narrow this down.
Yes, we can take that federal money and do this and this with it.
I mean, I don't understand that.
It's just like on this report right here on page seven where they give their recommendations.
They're giving you three recommendations instead of stating
what they want to do.
Yeah, yeah.
And I guess they're not at that point yet.
And maybe, let's see, maybe with some input from the communities, other than just someone that's no one like me,
and maybe with some of that input would put some worth back into keeping that facility as is
and spending the money on it.
I don't know.
There's a lot of issues to be discussed with the commissioners and that organization
and not just arguing, discussing what's best for the community.
I personally hate to see the county farm.
I'm concerned that they're going to close, end up in a few years closing that county farm,
and you take that 570 acres and turn into one.
because in turn into what else lots?
I mean, you know what I'm saying?
I'm going way beyond what the issue is.
Oh, but you're looking at an end game.
Yeah.
You're looking at what?
You know, they, they, they're destroying the North country,
it's how it's industrial, finance, or home,
home families and look at our schools that depleting.
They took out the railroad to put in for the Fort Wheelers.
I said that was a mistake.
You don't take out infrastructure to replace it with something else, running it beside it,
but they tore it out.
They come up with that theory.
It was the best thing.
I think it was wrong.
But that's me personally.
Ethan Allen is failing.
I don't know.
If it's going to be there in a few years, you know.
The balsams, that isn't going to happen.
What are we going to do with Coas County if we keep losing all these different businesses
that support families?
And more regularies, more zonians, more this, that isn't going to cure anything.
And I don't know, I don't know what the question is.
I'm asking.
really but other than I think we need to be concerned if I'm lucky I got 10 to
15 years left and then it won't be my problem but my kids, my grandkids I guess
some other ideas I'm going to throw at them but we'll see how you know for
information.
Have you heard back any of the towns?
Boxville's talked with me.
What's those towns were collaborating?
collaborating, but again, I'm just one guy, right?
No, but if we write a letter, you guys brought a letter on email?
Email.
And have you heard back in the email?
No.
No, Stratford wanted to know who was going to the,
if they could go to the next commissioners meeting.
Who did?
Stratford.
Stratford.
But it's still not even.
I just tried, I try to put a bug in the town as he is.
town's ears and I called them all and way back when and asked if they knew what was happening
and were they considered looking into it.
So I, and that's, I don't know.
Nobody would, they said, who are you?
I'm nobody, but.
Well, that's why we piggybacked on to you and sent the emails out.
Yeah.
So we had a verification.
Good.
Okay, see, I didn't realize that.
Good.
Good.
And.
Clachco was ready to open their facility up to a joint venture meeting or whatever.
They should, you know, put it together and they'd do that, you know.
Because they have a bigger room, you know.
So at this point, I don't know how to proceed to get these things together.
But we do if we do.
We should.
As a county, as the residents of the county, is greatly affected by it.
I think for this thing, Wayne, is that if we can keep beating the drama on this upcoming meeting on the 20th.
Yeah.
Because of many people there as possible.
Oh, yeah.
I'm going to be meeting with a couple of the residents of the county.
And they're very up.
up about it, put it that way, and we'll see what happened.
And they're from a couple or from Westwoodstown and a couple of from Collinckesville.
And we'll see if we can get it to, and it's great to hear the strap.
We got Ms. M.U.R. right here.
Ignor every judge.
She's always on a bar.
Well, it's basically you, you've beaten the drum, but you need a large drum.
drawn.
It needs to be papers and TV, etc.
Well, and Toby said at this time we've got a little bit of an advantage.
We know it's not tomorrow morning.
I can get that, you know.
We have time.
We have to get down there.
I know about it.
I mean, I'm almost at my end of experience on how to do this.
Okay.
So now we need to get to communities to join in.
And some of the other risks.
some of the other residents of different towns, I feel in the same way that they're at the end.
And I haven't got this information, this report, but I think it's going to overwhelm them.
The big thing, Wayne, is always be present.
Yeah.
Always be present, whether it's one or a thousand.
Always have somebody there carrying the torch.
Yeah.
And so anyway, I guess I'll always be present.
I guess I'm just talking right now, so where we're at.
Getting that day to go down the camera.
Ask questions anyway.
Anyone else for public input?
Do we need a non-public?
Yes.
And there it is.
Okay.
Is that on a legal issue?
Yeah.
Okay.
Special announcements.
I'll do it now and later.
We'll be back again next to the same time.
Everybody have a safe week.
Hope to see everybody again next week.
I'll make a motion to go in the public.
For a week.
Thank you.
I'll second night.
All right.
All right.
Again.
I guess.
Yeah.
I'll be over.
I'll make a motion to go back into public.
All in favor?
All in favor?
All in favor?
All right.
We'll all be back here next week at 3.30.
And hope everybody has a good week and a good weekend.
I make a motion to it.
All right.
All right.
