And those are steel bolts from the original sign.

0:39 – 1:08Speaker 7

Hello, that's your storage. That's what I'm here and telling her up post. bucket and the skid loader extended all the way out. Oh, good God. We're going to call the meeting to order.

1:13 – 1:32Speaker 10

I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America and to the Republic for which it stands, one nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all. Okay. Are there any additions or corrections to the consent calendar?

1:34Speaker 7

I guess it's you and I.

1:35Speaker 10

It's you guys.

1:36Speaker 4

You and I. Motion. Second. Call the roll. Commissioners Garbers? Aye. Peterson? Aye. Mayor Lundstrom?

1:43 – 1:57Speaker 10

Aye. Okay, next on the agenda as visitors to be heard, is there anyone here that would like to speak about something that is not on the agenda? Sherm?

1:57 – 4:18Speaker 5

Sherm Gardner, 1037 North Cater Street. I'd like to speak about two things. One is the electric motorcycles, scooters. They're being operated by kids that do not know traffic laws. They go through stop signs. They don't, I mean, something's got to be done. Maybe if the police pick them up and take them downtown and when the parents come to get them, they can charge them with child endangerment or something like that. put some teeth into it. The other thing is, this is my opinion. Me and some other people raised a bunch of money for a community center. My understanding, because I've dropped out, I don't know anything about what's going on, but my understanding is they've kind of turned it over to the city. Have you considered talking to the school and combining the city library with the school library. It's something other towns around are starting to do to cut costs, stuff like that. Then you could use the library as a community center. It's already got bathrooms, it's already built, it's already got a parking lot. You could use the money that's been raised for remodeling in a kitchen and whatever needs to be done granted it's not as big as everybody wants but it's there and could be used so i guess that's all i got to say i just the scooters need to be addressed the motor electric motorcycles are worse they go faster And if a kid gets in an accident, you're going to ruin two families. The little kid that more than likely is going to die, and the person that hits them is going to have to live with the guilt the rest of their life. So, okay. I'm sorry, but I don't know.

4:18Speaker 7

I'm glad you brought it up.

4:20 – 4:32Speaker 10

Thank you for bringing that up. You bet. Anyone else have anything to talk about that is not on the agenda? Do you?

4:32 – 4:46Speaker 6

Notice to abate. I was wondering if I could give a little more time on it.

4:47Speaker 7

A lot of stuff going on right now. What is this for?

4:52Speaker 6

A notice to abate. What's the address? What's the address? You're looking for more time? Yeah, well,

5:25Speaker 7

How much time do you need to hug?

5:29 – 5:52Speaker 6

Oh, I don't know. Depends on how big a pain in the butt my brother's going to be. The one ain't so bad. He's there with me. A month? It's not off. I'm down here picking on you again.

5:54Speaker 7

We don't meet for about three weeks. We don't meet again for about three weeks.

6:00 – 6:12Speaker 8

I will call the code enforcement officer tomorrow and tell him that you came and spoke and got a month extension from the commission.

6:13 – 6:37Speaker 10

Okay. Thank you. Thank you. You bet. Sorry for your loss. Anyone else? Okay, then we'll move on. Houston Engineering has a presentation on safe streets for all. This is Kyle TenNapel from Houston, Houston Engineering, and he is presenting about safe streets. So.

6:37Speaker 2

This is Houston, this is a little typo. Is it?

6:41Speaker 10

There is a typo.

6:43 – 16:33Speaker 2

Okay, but like she said, Kyle TenNapel, I'm a transportation with Houston Engineering. We've been working with Seacock. Are you guys familiar with Seacock? So there are six county regions in the southeast corner of the state that do planning and economic development. And I have a presentation here in the back. So CCOG applied. This is a program through USDOT, Federal Highway Administration. So they wrote a grant to fund this planning process called Safe Streets for All. in this plan and the main goal of this plan is strictly safe beach, cutting down fatal and serious injury crashes with all modes of transportation. So that means, you know, They want to make it safer for those modes of transportation as well. So yeah, that's the main goal of this plan is safety. You'll see other plans, whether it's, you know, efficiency plans or speed studies or stuff like that. The main goal of this plan is strictly safety. And we looked at two sides of the coin. We looked at the data, we looked at crash data, roadway characteristics. So where the crash is happening, what's going on with the roadway. Because we know that the data doesn't tell the full story. We know that some areas get a lot of close calls and near misses that don't show up in the data. So we want to hear about that stuff too. as well and then the main and then one of the main goals of this plan is to identify projects that mitigate against those type of crashes and so fhwa has a lot of proven counter measures that we have afflicted to these locations that have been proven to cut down on serious and fatal injuries and why did we go with the regional approach fhwa whole six county region on the whole and where these where are the worst spots when it comes to these type of crashes and also we can also look at different communities what's what's working well what's not working well in those communities so it's kind of information sharing as well and it also cut down on the cost because there was a 20 local match along with this planning process and so that made it so the more communities that participated the less cost it would be to each community so that's why i kind of want a more regional approach So first we're going to go over the regional plan. There's two sides of this plan. There's a regional plan, but then we also did an individual local plan for each community that participated. So camp has their own individual projects within their city limits and their growth areas that we'll get into a little bit later. So these are the locations for the highest risk for serious and fatal injury crashes. And so that little stat that we found is less than 1% of the roadways are responsible for 80% of the fatal and serious injury crashes. And so that map's kind of hard to see. Those red lines and dots are the high injury network, HIM, is what I'm going to call it, and the duration of this presentation. So that's more of the data side where you look at the crash data, the road characteristics. But like I said, we also did a public engagement. So we put out a project website that people could go to and learn more about the project. We shared it with local Facebooks and stuff like that just to get some more information on those near misses and intersections and the corridors that we didn't see in the data. We wanted everything to be included in this plan. 481 surveys were completed and 916 MAPN points dropped. In addition to this, we also did stakeholder interviews. We've been working with another firm, FHU. They came up and did a study or in the community before the projects were identified. So those are kind of the qualitative aspects of gathering information. So this is the vision and the regional goal. Like I said, the main vision is to cut down on those serious and fatal injury crashes and creating a safer, more connected, comprehensive communities. And the regional goal is once And then once CCOG's gonna take the reins, they're gonna be checking in, you know, quarterly or annually with you guys to make sure you guys are getting what you need and are working towards improving some of these locations that we identified in the plan. So some of the regional strategies that came up, improved pedestrian, bicycle safety, reduced speed-related crashes, improved school traffic safety. reduce failure yield stopper yield crashes those are the ones that produce those high speed angle crashes key bones this is what people call it that are going to result in more serious fatal injury improved visibility and then prioritize those prevent safety counter measures which i'll get into and these are identified by fhwa so when i say counter measures these are the things that i'm talking about um centerline flashing LED stop signs, which you see quite a bit in proof lighting. Some other examples around about intersection conversion, and we're not going to say every intersection that's bad, we want it to be around about. There's some lower cost countermeasures that can be implemented before around about, just to see if things can be improved at a lower cost. And then side longitude rumble strips as well. Some examples of some pedestrian and bicycle countermeasures are crosswalk visibility enhancements, RFPs, which are used in smaller towns, bike lanes, sidewalks, and some additional traffic control measures. So countermeasures, these are the things that I'm talking about. So now we're going from the full HIM in the six-county region. We took all the HIM projects that came out of that, and then we applied it to the 19 communities in the one county that participated in this plan. So this is within your city limits, or your two-mile buffer around the city, which would be your growth area. And so these maps are showing that. Ken had a couple projects in the HIM, mostly on Highway 18 there, running seven through town. If you have any questions, you can stop me at any time and I'll answer them. Okay, so now that was the regional aspect of the plan. So now we're going to be going more into the Canton's local plan and what this is going to look like. It's more of like an 11 by 17 front and back, more smaller, but these are the projects that we found locally. So we used the HIN. So we included anything that was along the two HIN segments in Canton. And these are the projects that would help with that. Obviously, this is a high-level planning, so if you're going to get into the nitty-gritty, you're probably going to need more of a corridor safety and operations study, urban cross-section consistency review, make sure people are knowing what to expect when they come to intersections along that corridor, rural to urban ski transition review, pedestrian and bicycle crossing improvements. Like I mentioned before, in the pedestrian countermeasures slide, you can implement some of those things across this, so pedestrians have easier way to cross this corridor, main corridor coming to town. sidewalk, side path, lighting, signage, paper marking improvements, and everything's going to have to be coordinated through SDOT since they own this road, so they're going to have the say, but they've been a part of the study advisory team, so we've had conversations, early conversations with them so they're aware of all the projects that they're on the road with. So the conversation's already started, so they're aware. So if you do end up implementing some sort of countermeasure, they're going to be aware, and they'll be helpful. Another segment, this wasn't on the HAN, but this came through the stakeholder interview and the public engagement North Dakota Street School and Community Connectivity Project. This is kind of your main north to south corridor through your community. So school and community access review, enhanced pedestrian crossings, a lot of the same things on 5th Street, speed management, feedback signs, some lighting improvements, parking and curb extensions, things like that. Pedestrian refuges also being those curb extensions just to make the pedestrian and the roadway less vulnerable. It's less time for them to cross the road than their actual roadway. They have some room for those curbs. And then some aid and sidewalk improvements. Another project, and this is more in the Grove area, an intersection north of town. 481st Street, Coop Road, 270th Street, CR 116, Intersection Future Safety Improvement. So intersection control evaluation, possibly some low-cost countermeasures first, and then if the data doesn't improve, then we would look more into a roundabout situation, site distance and visibility review, some traffic laws on this roadway, vehicle review, possible turning lanes, lighting, siding, and paper parking, things like that. So you'd have to coordinate with the county

16:50Speaker 8

I know this intersection, and it feels unsafe.

16:53Speaker 2

Are there actually a lot of accidents there? I'm not sure. I don't have the crash data in front of me, but I can look at it.

16:59Speaker 10

The Clothack Road? Yes. There are.

17:03 – 20:29Speaker 2

And so, yeah, if there wasn't the crashes to move forward with something like this crash data, they didn't show it. So there must be some serious entry crashes along this. There's been a couple of over the years. So when I mentioned grant, I kind of forgot to mention this earlier. This plan is going to be a main tool to apply for grant funding. So this plan is going to allow you to apply for Safe Streets for all implementation grants. Any project that's identified in this plan makes you eligible for that grant program. So this is what the program does. They want you to identify And then these projects will then make you eligible to apply for implementation grants under the same program. But at the very least, this is going to give you ammo to apply for any grant. Any grant application is going to be asking for a planning process. what I like to say, and information and demographics to apply for state grants, those small grants, local foundation grants. And so this is really going to set you up for grant funding in the future for these projects that are identified in this plan. Another area that we identified, this came through the survey and the stakeholder interviews, a lot of school safety has popped up in those. and stakeholder interviews, so we wanted to include some corridors that kids would most likely walk on to get to school. So these are some of the, I won't go into it just for time's sake, but these are some of the projects that can be implemented on these corridors to school. Some other projects identified, a lot of these small communities have a railroad running through the highway. So we wanted to include that since Canton does have a railway network going through town. So improvements of crossing for pedestrians across those railways. so we want to include that from some milwaukee street bicycle route neighborhood mobility projects uh candy to newton hills we heard that during this planning process as well as the lincoln county safe streets for all process so we wanted to include this because um you could either go after the implementation grant and see if people do that for a trail segment this also does include trail segments but you could also use go to dot TA grants it's a little long for that and there's not as big of a pot in that in that grant program but I've seen community views that they want a bigger segment to phase it out so this could be three or four phases you could go after you know TA funds annually and and do it in chunks and so I've seen people do it that way as well so this plan will kind of set you up for that as well um is this for bicycles only or no this is this is this is it wanted to include that because we've heard that and the Lincoln County planning process as well as your stakeholder interview and wanting this trail segment you know connecting this to your state parks or the county parks along that river corridor make sure that you know the bicyclists like they use that already so they want an adequate side of path for trail that connects those parks as well.

20:29 – 21:01Speaker 7

So you got this map up can I ask you a question? Yeah sure. On the end of the purple the number one? Yep. On the west side of the school, Lynn Street, which crosses railroad tracks just before it goes into the school parking lot. Working with the railroads is almost like impossible. So what's the chance of making that crossing of the railroad? Right now, I don't know if two cars could be, let alone a bicycle or pedestrians.

21:03 – 23:58Speaker 2

Yeah, and that is, it is a little bit more difficult to work for railroads, but when I was at Gerritsen, they have a lot of railroads and their city attorney actually worked with railroads and she says, you know, as long as it's justified, they're pretty receptive to, it's just finding that person, you just have to find that person that would know the system and know about these improvements implementing some of this stuff so it does seem a little tricky you know on the outside but if you get to the if you get talking to the right person it is possible it's not impossible to read them so so moving on like I said these are the these are the possible grants that you could apply for using this plan that made one being the safety for all implementation grant that's the one that's directly tied to this planning process but these are all grants that this will give you ammo to apply for. That's what I'd like to say. And so this is what your local plan is going to look like. It's going to give you information on your transportation system. It's going to give you all this demographic information that the grant applications usually ask for, some other data that what we did for public engagements, because that stuff's all going to be asked about when you use your own application, so we wanted to set you up. So this is the first side, and then the second side is going to be directly, and this isn't complete because we wanted to get feedback from you guys first before we put the map and the project list together, but those projects that I talked about previously are going to be on this middle column. how the information lines up, then there's going to be a corresponding map as well that shows that they tell all the projects that we identified with the plan. And those projects are the ones that I talked about previously. And so what we're going to ask from you, to be eligible for the implementation grant, we're gonna ask you to adopt a resolution, pretty much adopting the regional side of things, as well as the local plan. This ultimately comes down to, you just are committed to reducing those years in natal injury, so maybe that's basically what it boils down to. Um, that's what we're gonna, we're gonna send this to you once the projects we're gonna, we're gonna get the local plan draft. Um, so you guys review and give us feedback. Um, and so I'm not gonna ask you to adopt this resolution tonight, but in a future meeting, we're gonna ask you to adopt this plan, the regional and local plan. I'll send it to you guys and I'll send it to someone from the city. I'm not sure who the next person that would be.

23:59Speaker 8

I think you're in contact with Alicia to set this up.

24:02Speaker 2

Okay. We've talked to Alicia a couple times. I'll send that to her and then she can distribute it to you guys.

24:11Speaker 7

Thank you very much. Thank you.

24:13 – 24:44Speaker 10

Thanks. Okay, now we'll move on to our agenda, our old business. We have a second reading for the planning and zoning membership ordinance amendment. The first reading was done on July 6th for an ordinance to amend chapter 32, city organizations for planning and zoning membership. If the second reading is approved, it will be published on July 30th and be effective on August 19th. So a motion is required with a second to approve the second reading.

24:47Speaker 4

Commissioners Peterson Garber sign.

24:52 – 25:26Speaker 10

I. OK. Next on the agenda is old business is the open container for the corn Carnival. Lisa was here two weeks ago. to request the city commission to authorize alcohol to be consumed, but not sold at the corn carnival in conjunction with the wheel and noids where alcohol event cups will be sold for the event. We tabled that and we will be addressing that tonight.

25:32 – 25:54Speaker 8

We had a meeting commissioner Peterson, Carlson, And we talked through some things there, but I think there's still been some movement since then. The thought of scaling it back and just focusing it on the street dance concert area being the parking lot.

25:54Speaker 9

Yeah, scale it back just to the container area behind the wheel.

26:13 – 26:30Speaker 7

but not to leave noise out. Yeah. Could we shut off whatever street that is? The street is that seat? No, it's not. I mean, from fifth to six, if they want to fence an area.

26:31 – 27:10Speaker 8

I could ask them if they'd want to do something like that, then we're prepared to, cause we don't know really what the carnival is going to need prepared to them four blocks of sixth street but we're also prepared for the possibility that they're going to need side streets whether it's a chunk of main or broadway or broadway and so we we've been preparing for the possibility of needing to block off all of those streets where they need this street but they're on the north half of that block right so even if he gave the carnival

27:12 – 27:40Speaker 10

south half of between fifth and sixth they could still have half a block black off north half four noise well they could block off in the back too yep they own that they could part of it yeah we own part of them no the noise owns pieces of that property in the parking lot oh on the back on the back side yeah as well as we do too yeah

27:48 – 28:07Speaker 7

I don't know if you're ready for a motion, but I guess if they're willing to fence in the wheel behind the wheel, south of the wheel, and if noise is either in the back or the front, willing to fence it off, or they have to stay within those contained areas, I'd make a motion.

28:16Speaker 9

at each establishment?

28:18Speaker 8

By contained, are we okay with just occasional barriers with signage as opposed to a continuous run of fence?

28:27 – 28:52Speaker 7

I'd rather have a fence. I just, I mean, I was all for not doing it because I don't think the carnival is the place to have beer. I think people would stay home if they knew there was going to be beer out there. Somebody can be, you can be standing in line and somebody could have a beer in front of you and spill it. I mean, it's going to wreck tonight.

28:52 – 29:08Speaker 3

Well, they weren't, we weren't allowing it in the carnival per se itself. Cause that's got fencing around. Well, there'd be signage up and with the security that we were going to plan on having walking around, that would also help.

29:09Speaker 9

I still like the idea of contained area at each establishment.

29:13 – 30:08Speaker 7

if they don't want i mean i don't i don't want to force them but then if they don't want it then i think we'd just drop it well you'd still do it for behind the wheel if no one's done oh yeah i don't want to yeah all right yep i will propose it to doug and chad but then tracy talked about her alley or whatever are we gonna so she can use it yeah we'll keep yep REPEAT MYSELF BUT I THINK I THINK WE NEED FENCE AREAS WHERE THEY CAN BE OKAY WHERE ARE PEOPLE SUPPOSED TO PARK AND TAKE THE CITY PARKING LOT IT'S GOING TO BE TAKEN UP ANYWAY BECAUSE THEY HAVE A BAND IT'S LIKE A STREET DANCE

30:20 – 30:47Speaker 3

they used to have back there like when we used to have the street dance yes i mean neither one of them might want to defend someone that's okay then we just don't drink outside well then that will put me out of a lot of money right now because i've put a lot of money out already for this okay as a citizen may i say something yes you may okay you got to stand up here

30:48 – 31:44Speaker 1

Yep, Kathy Watman, 2.31 second, grandmother 15. I'm just going to say on the grandmother and a parent, I agree with what you guys are saying. It should be in a fenced in area. A lot of these people don't want to bring their kids to the carnival wondering if they're going to run into somebody that's like Paul said, you could get a drink spilled on you. And I'm not saying all drinkers are that way because I know a lot of great people that drink. I don't think that should be something we have to worry about. And I think last time, didn't you say we're not going to hire any extra police, right? Right. Yep. Well, we don't, our police have other things to do besides worry about people in the streets drinking. We don't know when something's going to happen. Look what happened south of town today. We don't know what's going to happen. It's a surprise. I think our police officers could be used for something better.

31:44Speaker 10

Thank you. Thank you. So did you want to put that in a motion, Howard?

31:51 – 32:02Speaker 4

I think you did. You did? Put a motion to allow open container in a fenced-in contained area south of the wheel in Main Street in front of Noyes.

32:03Speaker 4

Was there a second? Second.

32:05Speaker 10

Okay. I will second that. Any other discussion? Any call roll?

32:12Speaker 4

Commissioners Garmers? Aye. Peterson? Aye. Mayor Lundstrom?

32:15 – 32:31Speaker 10

Aye. OK. Let's see, we have more. Oh, yeah, pay up. Another old business. The pay up for the intersection pavement markings project. We tabled that.

32:33 – 32:49Speaker 8

I don't know why. Sarah forwarded a few spots that she had concerns about to Justin via email. So if we want to move ahead and pay it, Justin will continue to work with them to get those spots addressed.

32:49Speaker 10

Okay. Is there a motion to pay this bill?

32:54Speaker 4

Motion. Second. Call rolled. Commissioners Peterson.

32:59 – 33:51Speaker 10

Hi, Gerbers. Hi, Mayor Lundstrom. Hi. A new business, Code of Ethics ordinance. At the last meeting, we voted to put that into a resolution, I believe, didn't we? Yeah. Code of Ethics and the city attorney said, no, it should be an ordinance. So we're going to re-vote here. So we need a motion for a first reading for an ordinance. Motion. Okay, thank you. Hold on that, nope. Okay, next is the appointment of the Planning and Zoning Commission members. Motion is needed to appoint Miriam Martins, Barb Fossum, and Nate Kleinschmidt to the Planning and Zoning Commission for three-year terms upon passage of the membership ordinance revision, which we are working on. Motion.

33:53Speaker 10

David Caldwell.

33:54Speaker 4

Commissioners Garbers. Aye. Peterson. Aye.

33:56Speaker 10

Mayor Lundstrom. Hi, and that is it. Commissioner Dialogue, Doug, do you have anything to talk about?

34:06 – 34:48Speaker 9

Not really. Not until they do a little more work on the road out there in front of my house. They're using it quite heavily now when they're bringing gravel in. It's getting tore up pretty good on the north side from their boundary north. that's going to be beat up when they're done so bad that i don't know what's going to happen there it gets blacked out till then though right when they're done no they cut it off at the north entrance to the door oh that's right they did yeah

34:49Speaker 4

but somewhere along the line somebody's, depending on how much damage is done to the road, they didn't have to fix it or. Yeah.

34:55Speaker 9

I mean, there's only one little pothole, but the whole southbound lane is cracked. So it's not going to be long. It's not going to be pushed out.

35:05Speaker 8

Which is exactly what happened between the south entrance and the north entrance. Yes. Yes, exactly. It was. All right.

35:12Speaker 9

Okay. That's all I got.

35:14 – 35:36Speaker 7

Paul? Um, I THINK WE NEED TO GIVE WHOEVER OWNS THE KNOWLEDGE WHAT WE DO NEED TO DO. WE NEED SOMETHING. YEAH, I AGREE TOTALLY.

35:37Speaker 11

I HAVE EIGHT OR NINE DIFFERENT... DO YOU WANT TO COME UP?

35:40Speaker 10

BECAUSE WE CAN'T HEAR YOU.

35:44 – 35:59Speaker 11

I've been researching a lot of this and looking at different towns in the areas that have done scooter laws, put things out or whatever. I have a collection of 80, 10 of them for me for some of what other towns have done. Some are bigger than us, some are smaller than us, but at least we have something to start working on.

35:59Speaker 9

I had heard that Rock Rapids or somebody had already adopted.

36:02Speaker 11

Rock Valley. I think Rock Rapids has one in process. I don't know if they adopted it or not yet. I have a bunch of them just to start looking at.

36:10Speaker 6

Harrisburg did a fair meeting last week.

36:12Speaker 11

Yeah, Harrisburg put something together.

36:15Speaker 7

SOMEBODY IS GOING TO GET IN.

36:18Speaker 10

SOMEBODY'S GOING TO DIE.

36:19Speaker 11

I HIT SOMEBODY THE OTHER DAY OPENING THE FRONT DOOR OF THE BUSINESS ON THE SCHOOL. I JUST HIT RIGHT INTO THE DOOR AS I OPENED IT.

36:26Speaker 7

IT'S GOING. YES, WE NEED IT. IT'S OUT OF CONTROL. IT IS TOTALLY OUT OF CONTROL. AND IT'S NOT JUST KIDS.

36:32Speaker 10

NO, I'VE SEEN ADULTS DO THE SAME THING ON MY STREET.

36:48Speaker 2

But part of it too is I think South Dakota doesn't require them to be licensed if they're less than 500 CC motors things to move

37:19 – 37:37Speaker 5

in that corner there, right west of me. It's ridiculous. There's three of them in our neighborhood, one down by Paul and two up by me. And they get together and they come from the east and fly through that stop sign at pretty sure over 25 miles an hour.

37:39 – 37:59Speaker 10

Oh yeah. Definitely. My corner is relentless too. I'm sure it is. Mine is too. They fly through. I sit and watch them all day. They don't even look. They don't turn their heads at all to see if there's a car going north or south. They're flying east and west. Somebody is going to get hit and killed.

38:00Speaker 9

We need to pick a task force or ask who wants to be on.

38:02Speaker 10

We can do that. We could ask for volunteers.

38:06Speaker 9

39:14 – 39:37Speaker 7

Anything else, Will? No. I think our guys did good picking up garbage. Do I think it was abused? Absolutely. I've seen people do it. So I'm curious to see what our total is at a cost of this.

39:37 – 40:49Speaker 8

We have, as we were touching base with the Sioux Falls landfill throughout the week last week, they mentioned that they did still have a waiver to get tipping fees waived so we we got a hold of the application to give it to one of our higher truck drivers we filled it out we sent kind of an attached letter also discussing why we thought we should be a candidate for the waiver and we sent that in we haven't heard back on it yet so there is still a chance that we're going to get the tipping fees waived um we don't know the exact tonnage of woken up. I'll tell you, we had more than six tons by noon on the first day. That doesn't count the multiple loads of scrap metal that we took ourselves back to our pile. It doesn't count all of the scrap metal that other people were taking. Two other communities, we hope. Eighty-six mattresses went up on the first Friday, but there were still some more mattresses that we still were learning of even past noon today. Yeah, I'm going to be interested in those final numbers, but it was a lot.

40:52 – 41:13Speaker 7

I mean, I've seen people back up to their garage, load it in their pickup and drive 50 feet and unload it at the end of their driveway. because saved a lot of money by them driving out to the rural side and we could have separated at that time. Another day for another discussion.

41:13Speaker 10

That's all I got. Andrew, do you have anything that you?

41:17 – 41:37Speaker 8

No, I would just add that Public Works did work really hard. Streets, utilities, parks, it was all hands on deck, all the summer help. They started most mornings at seven o'clock just to beat the heat. Yeah, it was, it was a great effort.

41:39 – 42:05Speaker 10

I heard no complaints except for we had a whole week of electronics to be driven. People can drop off all their electronics to city hall and we haul it away. There was still people putting TVs out on the curb. So what do you do? So I don't have anything except for we have a lot going on in Canton in the next few weeks. YOU CAN CHOOSE WHAT YOU WANT TO DO. THERE'S LOTS TO DO.
