at 50:24We're paying $16 million a year to have enforcement of our ordinances as opposed to having our own police department.

at 50:43And by the grace of God, he didn't have the handlebars go through his chest, but he's going to have a scar for the rest of his life.

at 1:48:10So I'd like to challenge staff to come back with even less than 6.4948, given the fact that, as our residents have stated, many people have come back and said that there's fluff.

at 1:48:23And based on that million-dollar lawsuit that never came to fruition, as well as the Amazon giveback, there is fluff in there that we need to be accounting for.

at 1:40:44When people come into the community and are looking at a new-build construction home, they're looking at paying anywhere from between $300,000 to about $600,000 for that house.

at 1:40:55As we all know, the developer and the builder will pass along the cost, but what you're really looking at is an incremental cost of $2,000 being added on to a $300,000 purchase.

at 26:51So, Ms. Blodgett had some questions, and I would like to see if we can get an answer for that since a member of the community is questioning if we're using the same contractor.

at 40:01The former District 4 Commissioner Gardner has reached out to me and he expressed a concern similar to what we've heard from other residents tonight in that he said that he's seen a lot of fireworks communications go out, but it did not list the location.

at 1:58:54So we've gone back and forth, and back, I believe, in November or December,

at 1:59:34And that was echoed by some of our residents who've been here and have seen that.

at 25:27One of the questions that I had asked in the workshop was about looking into the option of selling the utility off, because as we've seen, these rate increases become very political, and so we do see where there may have been some challenges experienced by the utility over the years due to political pressure.

at 54:35Because it says that if somebody's not present, that they can, after making reasonable effort to locate the owner or other persons having charge or control of the property and request entry, explaining the reason, therefore, if entry is refused or cannot be obtained because the owner or other person having charge or control of the party cannot be found after due diligence, the animal control officer or authorized rep…

at 1:33:46Because, obviously, for second year audits, whenever we switch firms is probably going to elevate the cost a little bit.

at 1:46:05I just wanted to say that you guys are currently in district four and I will be sad to see you

at 1:41:14For the neighborhoods that have the fire lane issues because the roads are too narrow and people should not be parking on the roads, is there any way that we could potentially get code to start putting notifications on cars?

at 1:41:38Yeah, and so could we possibly start the education process and maybe just putting notices on cars so that they realize that they're not supposed to park there?
