Je déclare ouverte la réunion du conseil d'administration de la ville de Frazier ce mercredi 22 juillet 2026 à 18h00. Puis-je avoir l'appel nominal, s'il vous plaît? Adam Quickland, Peggy Smith, Julie White, Mother Gregor, Katie Soules et Brian Serven. Puis-je avoir une approbation de l'ordre du jour avec une modification à celui-ci? Nous allons suspendre la réunion du conseil municipal pour passer à l'autorité du logement de Frazier pour la résolution de la lettre E concernant le programme de crédit d'impôt pour le logement à revenu intermédiaire. Puis nous reprendrons la réunion du conseil municipal.
Adoptez. Appuyez.
D'autres discussions ? Tous en faveur. Compte. May I have a motion to approve the consensual order of the day, which includes the verbal proceedings of July 15, 2026?
I would like to present a motion to approve the consensual order of the day.
Other discussions? All in favor? For? Someone against? Okay. Let's move on to the free press. This concerns matters not listed at the time of the day. If you wish to address yourself to the council, please approach the podium or raise your hand online and we will give you three minutes. Okay. Discussions and possible actions concerning the Treasury report. Very well.
Good evening, Mr. Mayor and Council Member.
Laurie Waters, Financial Director. And so we are ready for our report tonight. Let's see. Well, it seems a little better than not so long ago when we received the reimbursement for the loan in the second term. And so the salaries... Let's go back to what we usually see. I always work on setting up the big book correctly, and all the accounting of the Frasier housing authority. The accounting of the obligations is new for this financial director, but we work on it with the auditors. So, in short, the summer construction projects are moving forward. I think the bike park is a very popular place. It seems that there are always people who bike there, who take advantage of it. And now that we have the construction costs of St. Louis, landings are paid via the mandatory process, which works very well. These are essentially bank receipts coming in and out and everything is going well. Public works are finishing the summer cleaning. They have just replaced the ponceau at the Catherine Bridge. They do a lot of painting and a lot of cleaning. We are still looking for a new employee for the warehouse. So if you have someone in mind who would like a full-time job, which consists essentially of three days as a waste management employee and two days as a machine operator for public works. You know, let us know or send them to us if you know someone who would be a good candidate. And I just wanted to say once again that our gardeners do a great job. I think that with the challenges related to the lack of water and drought, I find that Frazier is great and they have done a very good job. And now they have even quantified that they are really saving probably 20% of their, you know, their share of water savings has really increased. And they are able to quantify it with Kathleen. And so they made this particular effort so that all these plants are definitively resistant to drought and ready to stay beautiful all summer. And then, oops.
On which side am I going?
Sorry, I went too fast. It jumped. Wait, I'm going in a bad direction. What's going on?
What did I do?
J'ai déréglé.
J'ai suivi. J'ai trouvé. J'ai compris. Ça me prend une minute. D'accord. Les revenus de la taxe sur les ventes de juillet correspondent à la taxe sur les ventes de mai qui a été collectée. Et c'est là que nous recevons les revenus. Mai était de 341 dollars. Ou 341,54. Au total, ce qui était en fait 200 dollars de plus qu'en avril, But it was only, it was lower than May 2025. It was 57 of the month. So just below May 2025, which represented about 16% drop compared to 2025. But I was really afraid that we would witness another big drop like what happened in April. So I was rather relieved to see that it remained roughly at the level of last year. So that brings back the average from January to May. We are still 19 times below what we were the previous year. But I tell myself, you know, the summer traffic has increased. I think we're going to see a rise, maybe not a total recovery, but I think we're going to see June rise and that July and August will be in line with their usual performance. Maybe not on the same scale as in 2025 because people seem to shrink a little bit. C'est ce dont parle la réserve fédérale et tout le monde, les consommateurs, se restreignent. D'ailleurs, ils essaient d'économiser un petit peu, vous savez, peut-être de ne pas être aussi fous dans leurs dépenses. D'accord. Ça fonctionne. Alors ensuite. OK, ce truc est fait. It worked this time. We won't be able to connect here.
The technology is not like... It's your magnetic personality. I imagine I'm a little charged with static electricity.
Laurie, I look at this chart and I just tell myself that April and May correspond mainly to our population of base residents.
It's... No, it was probably a little higher than the simple base of residents. I mean, we still have a little traffic of passage. I should examine this more closely, because no, I mean, for example, short-term rental revenues for May were 34,430, which has only slightly decreased compared to May 2025. So, we have always had short-term rents that are running well. So, I think we are just slightly above what it would have been if it was purely local. Okay. So, I think we are holding the price. And your short-term rent sales tax represents about 10% of your gross tax revenue on local sales. Then I looked at us. Par là. Ça y est. Qu'est-ce que vous savez ?
Je pointe l'écran parce que c'est comme ça que fonctionne ma télécommande à la maison.
Maintenant, je pointe par là. Réponds juste. Merci. Appuie là-dessus. Et nous allons simplement passer à la suite. Je vais le poser maintenant. Je vais laisser Antoinette s'en charger. Distance sales in April represented about 9% of global tax revenues. It was 32,319 dollars. And it was 3,511 dollars. More than in May 2025. And I think I already mentioned that I think people are really looking to do good business and they go online to find the best prices they can find. But I don't think it had a big impact, unlike our big income generators like Safeway and others, but maybe Staples and people buy and someone bought a golf club, but anyway. Next. Another one. OK, so looking at the budget analysis, we are still in the objectives.
Nothing becomes uncontrollable. Regarding the projects, we are at 45.2% for the general fund expenses, which is quite normal.
We are not yet at 50% per year. So we are still in the objectives on that. Revenue Restreint is the bus. And yes, that's it. It was a little bit higher. But they also built for two or three months in a row. So it was good at that level. And then everything else is going well. The open space of the Cosen range, we will always receive subsidies to compensate for these expenses of the bike park and the funds for water and used water are quietly following their course.
Questions? Thank you.
I was curious to know which part of our overall budget represents the income of the sales tax. About 3.3.
That's about what I thought.
How are the remaining 66%?
The tax is right in the corner because we normally receive payments can be distributed depending on whether people have asked for reports. Franchise refunds are coming regularly. There has been no drop on this side. These franchise refunds come from Excel and Comcast and I believe from Mountain Parks Electric. I should check this with certainty. But we do receive franchise refunds. In fact, I was surprised that, for example, motorized vehicles, you know, are good. This may not reach the level that I had budgeted for 2026, but people buy cars.
You know, the big piece in my mind is the construction department. Will we deliver as much building permit and the continued use tax?
Well, we don't. You see, we received a check. We are generally not sent a check, maybe quarterly. D'accord. Et je crois que nous venons d'en recevoir un, et c'était un montant raisonnable. C'était, je crois, dans les quelques milliers de dollars. Donc, il y a bien des permis en cours et émis, et... Ensuite, eh bien, nous avons réussi à compenser certaines dépenses de police, car l'évaluateur de la ville nous a enfin remboursé... Ce que nous leur payons est leur montant budgété, et s'ils dépensent moins, ils nous restituent des fonds. We have finally received the credit of 2024, which represented about 240,000 dollars. So we really look like we are down 20% or 30% of our budget.
And so that's really what I'm trying to do. What are the global impacts? I really need to look. I was looking at this and I'm not really...
Maybe I was more focused on the follow-up of the percentage of increase compared to the previous year. I could examine this and see to calculate the decrease, but this is based on real figures. And for the moment, we are only halfway through the year. I don't really do it, I focus on each month, but I don't do monthly follow-up. So, when I look at the real figures of the previous year, it's for the whole year. I should therefore quantify it in months and all the rest.
Well, I appreciate it, because the tax issues on sales keep my attention, but the consistency of the rest reassures me.
Yes, it's a little scary when you see sales fluctuate in all directions, but otherwise the rest is quite stable. La taxe foncière est un impôt basé sur la valeur millésimale. Ils n'ont ni augmenté, ni diminué, ni modifié, quoi que ce soit à ce sujet. Et il semble que tout le monde paie sa taxe foncière.
Avez-vous une idée du pourcentage que représentent les permis de construire et la taxe d'utilisation dans le budget?
Oh, très minime. Euh, bon, il faudrait vraiment que je regarde ça de plus près, Peggy, et j'essaierai d'obtenir cette information pour vous, car la taxe sur les ventes ne représente qu'environ 33%.
So these other sources are even weaker. It's not much, but Rondeau is fully built.
You know, unless they do something commercial.
What's happening is mainly Grands Parcs.
And Grands Parcs don't do much.
They may build three or four houses per quarter. They pay the taxes.
And then they leave. But I think they move more activity to Byers Peak Ranch.
So I simply think that all the revenues that we draw from these things will go down. Yes, I think it's lower and I'll take a closer look at it to talk to you about it next time. I'm going to try to make a comparison with last year to see where we are. Okay, that would be great. This will require a little reflection and work to compile all this.
D'autres questions? D'accord, merci Lorraine.
Merci.
Prenez soin de notre argent.
Sélection du comité budgétaire pour le budget 2027. Laurie, c'est à votre tour.
Je ne suis jamais partie. Bonsoir, monsieur le maire et membre du conseil. Laurie Waters, directrice financière. Hum, I ask, or sorry, I request, I write it very politely. I ask the council to approve two members for the budget committee. We will start working on the budget in the next two weeks. I hope that the budget committee has enough time to examine the situation and see where adjustments may be necessary. But my goal is to approve the budget for 2027 by November 4th. The reason is that this will allow the current council to finish the budget and we hope that the new candidates elected to the vacant seat will swear on November 18th. In this way, they will not arrive directly in a minefield to try to close the budget. So, if that suits you all...
Yes. I appreciate your reflection on this subject. Of course. So, it can really be anyone within the current council, since you will have all your seats when the council approves the budget. Do we have people interested to be part of it? We need two people for the budget.
Est-ce une de ces choses qui pourrait se faire par Zoom? Oui. Je serai intéressé, mais je devrais probablement le faire par Zoom.
Tu pars fin septembre, c'est ça?
Eh bien, je participe aussi au Grand Tour à vélo, donc je serai aux États-Unis.
Je serai heureuse de le refaire. Merci.
Eh bien, je suis prêt à recevoir une motion pour nommer Peggy et Julie au Comité budgétaire 2027. Moi, j'en accepte.
Secondé.
D'autres discussions ? Tous en faveur. Contre.
Merci, mesdames.
D'accord. Ensuite, mise à jour des signataires de la United Business Bank. Larry, encore.
Bonsoir, Monsieur le Maire.
Je ne pense pas que vous ayez habituellement autant de points à l'ordre du jour. Désolée.
C'est pour... Je ne sais pas si je vais être trop vite en besogne. Please approve the right of Sarah Capin to become a signatory of the bank account, of all bank accounts, since she was chosen to be the municipal director in replacement of Michael Brock. The last time you approved this, it was only by interim. Now, we will have to come back to the verbal trial to officialize her position as municipal director.
I propose this motion under the... Finalisation des négociations.
Secondé, est-ce que ça va ?
D'autres discussions ? Tous en faveur ? Contre ?
Ainsi nous n'aurons, espérons le plus à le refaire.
J'ai oublié de préciser que tous les autres signataires actuels le restent. Est-ce nécessaire ? Devrions-nous faire une autre motion ?
Why don't you do it, Adam, since you've written the sentence, the second sentence, and the rest? All the signators? Yes, I was just checking if I should start with a K. I suggest two inkers.
Exact, it's just a modification of your...
It's a modification. Okay. All other current signatories will remain on the account. Mayor Brian Sirbenic, Mayor Peggy Smith and the municipal secretary Antinette McVeigh. The financial director, Laureen Waters, will keep access to the account but will not have the power to sign.
This has been added to your motion.
Added to the motion. D'autres discussions à ce sujet. Tous ceux qui sont pour. Je m'oppose. D'accord. Merci Laurie. Vous pouvez vous asseoir. Très bien. Point sur le marketing.
Good evening, Mr. Mayor and members of the Council. Sarah Wick, Marketing and Communications Manager. I'm going to add event manager somewhere in there. It's no longer going to be on my nominative plate. I understand. Say that too. Here for your quarterly marketing plan, Antoinette will display that. What we're going to review is social networks,
I can also simply explain this part to them.
We're going to talk about social networks, the website, then current advertising. And we also have a short film with Peggy. And a few logos to examine for St. Louis Landing. Very well, let's go. Here is the agenda. We have just spoken. And the social networks. We will start with Facebook to move to Instagram and YouTube. Here are our Facebook statistics for the second quarter of 2026. You can see that our net growth of Facebook subscribers was 372. And we also had an excellent commitment, 27,000. I think it's due to the opening of the bike park. We have a nice visibility in the region. Sarah went on the new channel with Matrinho. And we had other places that shared, I think, out there. Colorado also did a little podcast on the opening of our bike park. And lots of other people shared. So I think it's really great. Here is our global growth since January 2025. As you can see, it's increasing regularly, which is a good thing. Here are our Facebook posts, the popular ones. The first one was, the picture didn't show up. It looks like it was about the snow. Don't forget that this starts in March. We still had snowstorms in March. And then another one on people who don't pick up their dog's paws, which I hate. And then the bike park, of course. So, which one, it should be easy, had the most comments in June? Katie? One of the first ones I have here about the most recent one, it has aroused a lot of comments, but is it worth the stickers on dog paws?
I don't know.
I don't know.
Brian, what do you think?
J'ai littéralement passé en revue les trois. Je me suis dit, oh, ça doit être celle-là. Ça doit être le... J'ai entendu dire que les autocollants avaient reçu des critiques, alors peut-être que c'est celle-là.
OK. C'est les crottes de chien.
Toujours. Je ne comprends pas pourquoi les gens font ça. Je suis allée randonner près du lac Collines récemment et j'ai vu quatre sacs de crottes en montant. Ils les accrochent aux arbres.
Je ne comprends pas.
They're going to pick them up and send them down.
Really? Or did they forget?
Keep the bag if you don't want to pick it up.
Very well, I'll pick it up. Very well.
Let's go to Instagram for... You're supposed to bury him with that. Maybe he'll throw it at us for the dogs too. Uh... So here is the Instagram of the city of Fraser. As you can see, we have had a net growth of 255 subscribers and commitments. It was about 400-300 for the second quarter and it continues to grow. Our best Instagram posts? Look at all Bike Park. Bravo Bike Park. Which one do you think had the most video views in November? The first one is a bike park. The second one was the Tetra that attacked people with a truncheon. I don't know if anyone has experienced that. Well, I'm the one who took the video, so obviously yes. Apparently, there was also one in the phases doing the same thing. And then another one on the bike park, of course.
Qu'en pensez-vous? Premier, deuxième, ou lequel est? Oh, le pump track ouvre. C'est le premier.
Le dernier.
L'oiseau. Pareil que l'oiseau. Et l'ouverture du pump track. Ce n'était pas le bike park complet. Je crois que c'était juste au printemps, quand nous avons officiellement ouvert le pump track.
Very good. Explore Fraser. Now it's the one that is more focused on tourists or tourism. You can see this huge growth in the number of subscribers. I think it's due to the bike park. I don't know. But the net growth in the number of subscribers was 1,600 and the interactions 2,289. And we can see a strong increase. I mean, I launched this page in 2024. So the trend will continue to climb. Et voici les meilleurs posts Instagram pour Explore Phrasier également. To Bike Park toute la journée.
Passons maintenant à notre chaîne YouTube.
Est-ce que tout le monde est abonné à notre chaîne au fait ?
Les oui, c'est ce que tu... Parle à tout le monde via Internet. Diapositive suivante, s'il vous plaît. Et notre chaîne YouTube, ce n'est pas celle qui grandit le plus vite. Nous, nous continuons à gagner des abonnés. Et nous avons aussi un bon niveau d'interaction. Ça fluctue un petit peu, cependant.
Et ça continue d'augmenter, donc c'est une bonne chose. Personne ne se désabonne de notre chaîne YouTube.
Donc, ils peuvent regarder sans... S'abonner.
S'abonner.
Je pense que c'est pour ça que quand vous regardez des chaînes YouTube, tout le monde dit abonnez-vous, aimez et abonnez-vous. Vous savez, c'est mieux quand les gens s'abonnent, mais on peut toujours regarder. Voici nos meilleures vidéos. Encore du bike park et puis deux réunions. Du conseil.
Vous êtes censé être enthousiasmant et captivant.
Ah oui. Le 16 avril et le 5 mars.
C'est quoi ? C'est quoi ça ? Je ne m'en souviens même plus.
Est-ce que vous ? 68 contre 60. Donc il n'y avait pas de différence majeure entre les deux.
Very good. It's Adam's favorite. How do we compare ourselves? You can browse and read this. But I'm just going to give you the most striking point. It's that we publish a lot more. And then we don't have as many subscribers as the others, but we have a lot more interaction than the others. So the people we have are really engaged on our social networks, which is good. That's it. We have global successes on social networks for this quarter. We have added on all platforms 200 new subscribers, generated 5,750 impressions, produced nearly 300 contents and maintained a solid commitment rate of 5.5%. And some opportunities, we can increase the interaction on Instagram with Leary, that is to say more videos and carousel publications, which would be multiple photos, generate more traffic to our websites, develop video or storytelling and then continue to grow Explore Frazier as a destination brand. Now, websites. So, first of all, we have ExploreFrazier, sorry, Frazier Colorado. We have an average of 12,000 monthly visitors. They don't stay long. They spend an average of 23 seconds. And the most consulted pages are the reception and the agenda center. And our main audiences are, well, Denver and Englewood. ExploreFrazier with an average of 9,200. Il reste un peu plus longtemps, environ deux minutes et demi. Les pages numéro un sont Find Your Flow, Make Sales sur le VTT, qui contient aussi des infos sur le Bike Park. Mural Fest, puis Picnic in the Park, qui gagne un peu en popularité, ce qui me réjouit. Et nos principaux visiteurs viennent du Colorado, du Missouri et du Kansas. Je classe par état, car c'est axé sur le tourisme. Mais je dirais que la majorité vient toujours du Colorado.
On dépense de l'argent.
We have a few, at the end, there are Google ads and traffic increases. If, for example, the Mural Fest page has seen its traffic increase because I'm advertising on it and a Google banner.
So, obviously, you see that the page goes up. The number of views increases.
Most people arrive on Explore Fraser, they just type Explore Fraser. And we have 10% of the search for social networks and reference sites that may come from Fraser, Colorado. There is this button to explore Fraser, written at the top, and then playwinterpark.com. Here are the ads in progress. The first one has been broadcast for a while now. I think I launched this one in early March. Elle tourne donc depuis longtemps pour attirer les gens, car si vous vous souvenez, nous n'avions pas beaucoup de neige. Je me suis dit, essayons de faire venir les gens ici pour faire du vélo. Je sais que j'ai commencé le vélo le 8 mars. J'ai des photos de moi en train de rouler ici le 8 mars. C'est fou. Donc celle-ci tourne, pardon, elle est diffusée depuis début mars. La deuxième fait la promotion du nouveau Bike Park. Elle a commencé il y a quelques semaines seulement. And I just launched the third one, the Google banner for the Mural Festival. It was last Monday, actually. We also have a printed advertisement, an advertisement for Sky High, which will be in the newspaper this week and next week, I think. That's what I spent for that. You can see that for the first one, I spent about 400,000. And it's been running for a while, so it has a lot of clicks and a ton of impressions. This second one has not been running for so long. 291 dollars, 54 clicks. I want to check this one because I have the impression that we should draw more. And then the advertising banner that has just started, we have a little more. 1,700 clicks and 8,900 impressions. And this paper advertising costs 1,200 dollars per unit. That's really why I don't like to do paperwork because it's expensive and there's no way to follow it except with this QR code. And if they don't scan it, then I just don't know. So I mean, Sky High will tell you that so many people take it. So what's next? The Mural Fest takes place from 7 to 9. As always, the picnic at the park takes place every Tuesday. I'm going to continue the Find Your Flow F campaign for the bike park and trails, and then obviously help promote the Winter Park film festival. Start. I'm already thinking about marketing and learning planning. I want to, as Adam said, the weather seems to indicate that we could have a little more snow than the average, so that would be great. And I'm also thinking of Fire and Ice, but I had an interesting conversation with Snice this weekend. He met Winter Park Resort. So they're the ones who build the snow sculptures. So I think they're going to be hired to build something up there at Winter Park Resort too. It's going to be pretty cool. And then I'm working on improving SEO referencing on the Explore Phrasier backend. Now that more people are using IA to look for things, it's really important that it's well set up. I'm also focusing on that. Then Explore Phrasier, the welcome page, will have a little update. We're going to use a video on this big, on the welcome page, instead of scrolling images. And then the hamburger ping menu will change to a horizontal menu as well, to make it easier for people to find things. Appelez ça un menu déroulant hamburger. Vous savez, vous cliquez dessus, ça se déroule juste comme un hamburger empilé en ce moment. Et voici la vidéo du bike park avec Peggy. Ça ne ressemble pas. C'est mon nouveau petit enfant adoptif. C'est assez drôle. Très bien.
Can you go on YouTube and find it?
If you open YouTube, which may be weird since we are live,
This image on Explore Frazier, like the video just above. It's a quick capture of Frazier taken by a drone or something like that. I have the impression that Frazier is really funny.
Which one next?
On explorefrazier.com. The video is open.
Oh, I wonder if they had to redo it.
The video is currently on.
What does it look like?
It looks really good.
It's not on YouTube.
C'est aussi sur Internet. Cette vidéo est aussi sur Explore Fraisier sous tafannur.com. Pendant qu'elle cherche ça, avez-vous des questions, des préoccupations, des idées ? We do good work. I would say that paper advertising for things like our cleaning day in the city, this kind of thing, I think it's appropriate.
We do that. But not for marketing?
Yeah, it's expensive. Every walk starts with...
Sometimes it's a walk. Sometimes it's in the living room.
Sometimes it's at the breakfast table with...
So...
I'm sorry. You'll feel it when you...
C'est vraiment mignon. Et maintenant, nous allons regarder quelques logos pour Saint-Louis. Oh, en bas. Cette chose était dynamique.
Ça venait de Treusel ou quelque chose comme ça. Je ne sais pas d'où ça venait.
Parfois, ça enchaîne juste sur la vidéo suivante.
Je ne faisais pas attention.
Je regarde la page Finder Flow. J'aime toutes les cartes des sentiers.
C'est vraiment... C'est trasmatase.
Je dois commencer à ajouter plus de choses là-dessus.
C'est juste que ça prend du temps, mais... Very good. So, according to Sarah and our team who are in charge of the Sainte-Louis-Landing real estate project, we thought we needed a logo for the new residential complex. Here are some initial ideas on what it might look like. Sarah, I don't know how you want to proceed. Do you want them to send me their feedback? I think it would be better not to get lost too much in marketing and brand image. But if there are immediate returns, otherwise you can send them to Sarah. To make a general point, we are working with Griffith Blessing, the real estate management company, to put online the St. Louis Lending's welcome page, in order to display some information and start collecting the interest of tenants. There are a few elements that delayed the finalization. But we would like to add the logo and we hope it will be online this week or next week, ideally. So if you have quick remarks or sharp opinions, it's time to share them. Otherwise, Sarah will continue to work with Slate to finalize one of her options.
The one in the middle seems a little too loaded.
It was a bit the return of a lot of people. I like the one on the right.
On the right, the number 3. 3. But most people don't know what S.L.L. is. I picked the very first one without the box.
It's St. Louis Landing South. So, do we look at the 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6? No, no, no. There's the 1, the 2 and the 3. So, the... Exactly. The image, next to the logos, is used to show what it looks like on a darker background.
So what would be the logo? The one on the left or the one on the right?
Both, it simply depends on whether you have a white background or a black background. So both would be used.
According to the background.
What is the lower part on the second logo?
Oh, these are just monochrome versions.
Oui, celui-là est un peu plus abstrait.
Mais sera-t-il écrit Saint-Louis-London quelque part dessus ? Non, je veux dire, vous pouvez voir qu'il y a écrit Saint-Louis-E.E. aussi. Eh bien, je le vois imprimé.
Donc, ces trois-là seront utilisés ?
Je suis confus.
Ces trois images seront utilisées dans ?
Cela dépend de ce pourquoi vous l'utilisez. J'ai compris. Qu'est-ce que c'est ?
Sorry, I turned it off. We know that we had changed the police of our logo. There may be a coherence in the police of ours in this one.
I like the first one, but I wonder if you lighten the bottom with the blue of the third one to make it a little... You know, by using these colors there on the first one, I don't want to make it too dark. I think she's talking about the blue, the blue at the bottom of number one, using lighter tones.
Oh, the same tone as the one on number 3. Okay.
So, my first thought, looking at number 3, is that there's fire going over the building.
Oh, we don't want to think about that.
Very good. So, for me, either these colors have to change, or this logo is eliminated. I can't, I can't have two fires.
No, thank you.
Le milieu est trop chargé. Ensuite, ma réflexion suivante était que je pense que nous voulons que le public comprenne que c'est un projet payé par la ville de Frazier. Et donc, quelque chose de similaire au logo actuel. Eh bien, je suis d'accord, le 2 est trop chargé. But if we took the number one and moved the housing unit, whatever its aspect, to the middle, and maybe added the river that passes under the Frasier logo as a base, then it would unify it to say, hey, it's a project of the city of Frasier and you live here thanks to the contributors of Frasier. That's kind of what I think.
And I went back to Slate. So they're going to give me a version like that too.
I think it's consistent with our concept.
And I also really like your idea, Peggy. It's a little dark on this color image. Number one. If you want them quite quickly, tell us.
As soon as possible. In the meantime, Sarah and I think they could use our municipal brand image if they wanted to install them as soon as possible before we finished this. I think that in the meantime, as a reserved space, but I think that if we replace them with the final, the logo, I think it will go down. Well, it's not a bad idea either. Because then it is clear that we have financed it, but that it is really the office of Frasier housing, isn't it? To whom we give everything. It's not ours. It's the office of Frasier.
Yes, but I mean the contributors of Frasier, those who would like.
Cathy, I was just saying that in the meantime, they could use our current logo, the one of the city. Why when the website will be online, if we don't have it?
Well, wouldn't it be good to put Frazier somewhere in there? I mean, I think that if the logo is similar enough, people will understand. I also wondered about the police of character, because I am not against these police, but they are different from those of Prager.
Yes, I agree. They don't bother me.
but for the coherence of the messages.
Nous essayons de garder cela aussi simple et efficace que possible. Donc, c'est l'occasion de donner votre avis. L'engagement montré en flèche, ça me va. Faites-le si vous voulez. Toujours divertissant.
Nous avons tous des avis différents.
Vous, je ne sais pas. Sarah, le Conseil, dites-moi.
Ce n'est pas ça.
Je veux dire, si le Conseil souhaite vraiment avoir l'opportunité de voter, nous pouvons. Je pense que nous essayons de garder cela aussi efficace que possible et être capable de mettre quelque chose en place. Donc, je voulais savoir, vous savez, s'il y avait des avis tranchés, mais j'aimerais pouvoir avancer et passer à l'exécution. Nous pouvons obtenir quelques logos de plus.
Autre chose pour moi. Bravo à toi. Bravo à toi.
C'est une bonne mise à jour.
Merci. Bien joué.
Je propose de clore la réunion du Conseil et de commencer celle de l'Office de logement de Frazier.
Adopté. Appui.
Other discussions?
All in favor?
Now we will discuss the resolution. This is now different. Resolution 2020 6701 of the housing office of Frazier.
Thank you Mayor Bordeaux. Tax credits for intermediate housing are part of the financial assembly of Saint-Louis. They have been presented in recent months in this broader assembly, but we are waiting for the closure of obligations to simplify the process and obtain better conditions by reducing the risks associated with these loans. This synthesis document is designed to allow us to move forward with the investor. It should bring about 5.3 to 5.4 million dollars of real financing to the project. Matt Ginzburg is online, so I can let him present the key elements and answer your possible questions. What about our financial advisors?
This is also the subject of discussion with them. I think that we had Aaron Ney, who works with Hollande & Hart to supervise the global financial structure, the prop 123 and everything else.
She no longer works at Holland & Heart, but we are now working with... Eben Clark, at Holland & Heart. The file has been revised.
Good evening everyone.
Good evening Beth.
If you have any questions, I am at your disposal to answer them. Or specific questions. Otherwise, I can... Can you briefly tell us what this funding source is?
These are tax credits.
There is a private investor.
Matt, would you like to explain to us? Yes.
These credits have been attributed shortly after the approval of Prop 123. The main thing is that it is tax credits. The project receives state tax credits. It is similar to the federal tax credit program, LIHTC, which we have already talked about, which you probably know, but it is managed at the level of the state.
You take the tax credit.
and you sell it to an investor, that is to say someone who has taxable income at the federal level or, in this case, in the state of Colorado. They pay a certain amount per dollar, thus obtaining a return on their tax credit. So, first of all, this should answer some questions, but maybe raise other questions on these points. No, I remember. So how many cents per dollar, let's go back. We got 70 cents per dollar. And that's what happened to you. At first, I estimated around 66 cents. Then when we received this letter of intention, almost nine months ago now, the investor was ready to pay 70 cents. So we updated this figure. So you take the total amount of the tax credit on the number of years during which you receive it, you add the whole, which represents about 7 million and a few dollars in this case, then you multiply by 0.7 and this is how you get to 5, I say 5.3. But technically, it's closer to 5.4.
Other questions? So, what is it?
I was reading this potential agreement, which is still in negotiation, but concerning the reserves demanded by the lender and monarch. Are we working in tandem with them on this? Where do they impose their conditions? Where does it remain to be defined?
What you are looking at is a letter of intention. we will work on all the conditions and sign an agreement, usually a partnership. In this case, it will simply be a transfer agreement, a purchase and sale contract. As we move forward, we have eliminated some risks that are still in the intention letter and which are common in tax credit operations thanks to other measures that we have taken. Thus, when you all agreed to put in place the first provisional loan agreement, if you remember, for 5.4 million dollars almost a year ago now, On a conceptual level, it was an advance on this funding so that the project could continue at that time, then be refunded when we had concluded the sale of these tax credits. And normally, you have to sell tax credits during the construction of the project because you need this money to build what creates a lot of risk between the project and the investor. In this case, we do not have to do it thanks to the pre-financing and the relay financing. So some of the risks that you see in these terms will actually disappear when we reach the final agreement because we do not obtain the tax credit, we do not receive the payment of the tax credit before most of the elements likely to slightly affect this payment, at the increase or at the decrease, have already occurred. Thus, all the risks that we would have to negotiate will be, for the most part, confirmed when we get there. And so, Matt, will this tax credit sale pay off or will it pay off? Fully, our pre-release. This tax credit sale will pay off, will add 5.2 million dollars to the answer and no, because since Annex AC. Since last September, the overall budget of the project has increased, which is what we have finally concluded with all the obligations and other things of this kind. But this will reimburse an important part of this loan. If we deliver the project below the budget, this could reimburse the entire loan. And when the city signed this first loan, the initial discussion between the staff and the MAD was that it would be just in the short term, until the closure of the obligations.
As Matt worked with MyTech and the investor, if we expected to reach the employment certificate, there is less risk for the investor, so we get a better rate. So, if the city was able to extend it to this point of the project, it allowed us to get the best rate. And it is at this point that this loan, or at least the majority, is refunded.
Thank you for your attention.
So all this goes back to all the other sources of funding, which is at the end of the project. If the project has been delivered below the budget or if we have an excess of funding, then there is a mechanism in the obligations to distribute additional funds to the city. We will know exactly what it is at the end of the project, but in the final budget that was subscribed during compulsory dismissals, there is about 2.8 or 2.9 million euros of loan. This does not include the tax credit for the new markets, which we are not talking about here. And I don't want to confuse you, but this represents about 3 million dollars, or the rest of your current loan. We are therefore working on several points to ensure that we bring back this amount as close to zero as possible. There is a plan.
Ce protocole d'accord nous permet donc d'avancer, de négocier et de finaliser ces conditions et de passer par un examen juridique complet. Il nous engage à payer jusqu'à 30 000 $ de frais d'investisseurs liés à ce processus. Donc si pour une raison quelconque cela échouait, nous perdrions jusqu'à 30 000 $. Au-delà de cela, il n'y a aucun engagement juridique. Ai-je bien formulé cela, Matt?
C'est exact. Et nous, en tant qu'Office du Logement, où ?
Oui, nous, en tant qu'Office du Logement de Frazier.
Merci. Où est-ce que cela sort de la poche ?
MAD ou MAD ? Malheureusement, je couvrais. L'acronyme est trop proche de mon nom.
Connais-le. Avez-vous noté le nouveau numéro de résolution ?
I would like to propose a motion to approve the Resolution 2027-11.
Know what you're getting into.
Thank you. Oh Lord. Very well then. I would like to propose a motion to approve the resolution N2D 2026.07.01 of the Office of the Housing Department.
Resolution of the Council of Commissars of the Office of Housing of Frasier authorizing the Executive Director to sign a letter of intention and subsequent documents relating to the tax credit program for the Intermediate Revenue Housing of Colorado for the affordable housing project. Other discussions? All those who are for?
All those who are against? Very good. Now I ask for a motion to close the meeting of the Bridge Housing Office and resume the meeting of the Board of Directors. All those who are for, I oppose. Very good. Resolution 2026.0705. Intergovernmental agreement with the County of Grande for the November elections.
Monsieur le maire, membre du conseil et administrateur, ici Antoinette McVey, secrétaire municipale. J'ai omis de joindre une lettre au dossier du conseil avant que nous ne discutions de ce point. Je souhaite lire une lettre pour que le conseil puisse l'examiner avant de considérer l'IGA. Membre du conseil, je voulais exprimer mes préoccupations concernant la capacité du comté de Grand à organiser équitablement l'élection de la ville de Fraser et celle du comté de Grand. En tant que responsable désigné des élections pour Fraser, j'estime qu'il est de mon devoir de porter mes préoccupations devant le Conseil. L'un des devoirs les plus importants dans l'administration d'une élection est de protéger l'intégrité de l'électeur. Les bulletins de vote de l'élection primaire de 2026 portaient des numéros imprimés. Ces derniers n'étaient pas amovibles. Les bulletins doivent porter un numéro pour enregistrer le numéro du bulletin avec l'électeur afin de garantir qu'un seul vote soit enregistré par électeur. Once the voter and the ballot number are close, the ballot number must be removed and separated from the ballot. By separating the ballot number from the ballot itself, the integrity of the vote is preserved because it is impossible to attach the vote to the voter. If the ballot number cannot be removed, the ballot as well as the integrity or confidentiality of the voter's vote can be compromised. The way in which the bulletins were printed contradicts our electoral laws and your vote should never be able to be deleted specifically before. The only thing that should be able to be traced is the fact that you voted and certainly not for whom you voted. The bulletins sent by mail to voters during the early election of 2026 should never have been printed in this way, nor be authorized to be sent. The current county secretary was notified to the Secretary of State of Colorado during the 2024 election, then again in 2020. J'ai de sérieuses préoccupations quant à la capacité du secrétaire du comté à comprendre et à respecter le code électoral uniforme de 1992 et le code électoral municipal du Colorado de 1965, titre premier des statuts révisés du Colorado. Les électeurs de Fraser ont approuvé la question 2A en 2024 qui approuvait l'élection corde. Laissez-moi répéter cela. Cela permettait à nos élections d'être déplacées du mois d'avril des années paires au mois de novembre des années paires. Il n'était nullement question d'une coordination avec le comté. La mesure a donc été approuvée et nous avons déplacé nos élections en novembre. Donc maintenant, je voulais que le Conseil dispose de ces informations avant d'approuver un IGA avec le comté pour qu'il administre les élections de la ville de Fraser.
Merci, j'ai rédigé la question.
Alors, vous êtes prête à organiser l'élection? Je suis prête à organiser l'élection. Je veux que le Conseil ait le choix. Voici le problème. Lorsque la résolution a été approuvée par le Conseil pour soumettre la mesure au vote, il est indiqué que les élections pouvaient être coordonnées avec le comté. Ensuite, lorsque l'élection a été approuvée, la question du scrutin. Nous avons rédigé une ordonnance pour l'intégrer au Code et modifier les mandats des administrateurs. Et dans celle-ci, il est écrit que nous coordonnerons avec le comté. Je me retrouve donc face à un dilemme. Je vais travailler avec notre avocat municipal. Je pense que nous pourrions rédiger une autre ordonnance pour modifier cela et indiquer que nous pouvons coordonner avec le comté. Nous avons le choix de le faire maintenant ou plus tard quand nous estimons que c'est le bon moment et que nous avons confiance en leur capacité à gérer les élections. Le Conseil a donc la possibilité de continuer à coordonner l'élection avec le comté où je peux administrer l'élection comme je l'ai fait pour toutes les autres.
Cela a donc été un problème lors de deux élections.
Est-ce le même problème pour les deux ou deux problèmes différents?
Pour l'élection de 2024, j'ai pu lire le rapport que le précédent greffier du comté avait transmis au secrétaire d'État. Il faisait quatre pages et listait tous les problèmes rencontrés lors de l'organisation. Je n'ai pas vu le rapport sur cette élection, mais je sais qu'il a été transmis au secrétaire d'État.
Il y a donc eu... Je tiens à vous remercier d'avoir écrit cette lettre. And I think options are a good thing. The fact of wanting to be able to coordinate and keep our freedom of choice is positive. I am therefore in favor of the modification of the code to correspond to the resolution or to the ordinance or the ordinance.
It is therefore not codified or something like that.
Ordinance to reflect your opinion.
What has been encoded in the Code does not mention the possibility or not of coordination with the county. It was simply part of the ordinance. This is therefore a point that I want to address with our municipal lawyer, to know how to proceed if we want to change this.
Well, I'm here to clarify things until we have the choice to take care of ourselves. I think that at our time, anonymity is becoming more and more important. And here are my thoughts.
I can tell you that one of the reasons we spent November was to save money.
So how much would it cost the city to organize our own elections?
For us to organize the elections, I think there is probably a cost difference of about 3 to 5 zero dollars. And part of the reason we chose this was not only for cost savings, but also for time saving. You know, many cities or municipalities coordinate their elections with their county. It's an excellent way to do it. But you have to have confidence in the county governor so that he does it correctly and really guarantees the integrity of the voters. I just don't have that confidence right now. I think the county governor is not in the election this year.
So vote for him.
So we don't have to make a decision tonight, but if we had to move forward with the county, this intergovernmental agreement should be signed by April 25th. So we don't have to make a decision tonight, or in August, sorry, on August 25th.
So it's up to the council to decide how it wants to proceed.
If you want to organize it, I think we should let you do it.
And especially in an electoral year for the county governor, it represents itself. He will probably focus on his campaign. There will be more problems.
And will it be on our ballot or on theirs? It will be on the ballot. So we would have two ballots.
That there would be two ballots.
You have a specimen. I don't understand how it can be so poorly organized. I must say, I don't know how many elections I have lived here, but...
I don't have one. I sent my ballot by mail, so I can't show it to you. We all received the same ballot.
It was in 2020 or 2022. Not in 2020.
En 2020, c'était un greffier de comté différent.
Vous pouvez ? Oui. J'aimerais avoir un. J'aimerais avoir un greffier différent.
Nous avions un greffier de comté différent.
Un nouveau greffier.
Pourquoi tu as changé ?
Eh bien, et... Il y a eu beaucoup de changements en comté avec le greffier.
I think there were also problems concerning the training of the count. And some aspects of this training were ignored.
Well, when you are elected count of Comté, you put your name on the bulletin, but you may not have any knowledge of what the work of the count implies.
It's a post elective. I'm just curious to know why this person But finally, I think it is essential to preserve the integrity of our elections and I am in favour of everything that can contribute to it.
So, what would be the questions on our ballot? The only thing on our ballot would be the municipal election for the municipal council.
So, these national questions will be on the county's ballot. Antinette, what do you think about the potential impact on participation if people receive two bulletins?
I would rather agree to say that we could have less participation because now there are two bulletins. And I think that it is up to us to inform the public that they will receive two bulletins instead of one. People generally expect to receive only one bulletin for an election. But if you really read the instructions on, let's say, the envelope of secrets, it is indicated that you can receive more than one bulletin. It's always written. Est-ce qu'il y a des délais ? N'est-ce pas ? Il y a des calendriers spécifiques. Le comté fonctionne selon le titre 1. La ville fonctionne selon le titre 31. Il y a donc une petite différence, mais je ne pense pas qu'elle soit énorme.
Je devrais regarder ce calendrier. Je n'ai pas.
Combien avons-nous d'électeurs inscrits ?
Environ 900.
I don't think we need to make a proposal because we did not ask the county to organize the elections. We have not approved an intergovernmental agreement with the county. I think we will have to consult the city lawyer to make sure we proceed correctly in order to coordinate with the county without any obligation.
So we will report this decision at our next meeting.
Time to adjust this.
Thank you very much.
J'ai mentionné lors de la dernière réunion que le Conseil de préservation historique du comté de Grand s'apprête à démarrer. Le comté nous a demandé de nommer un membre au conseil. Ce membre doit résider dans le comté de Grand, mais n'est pas tenu d'habiter dans les limites de Frazier. I know that Travis Wright, who is present with us, is very interested in this nomination. I don't know if the council has other names to propose, but if you agree with Travis to present himself, he can make his proposal.
Sorry to have kept you waiting. No, no problem. Good evening, Mr. Mayor, member of the Board of Directors and Secretary to the Municipal Director. My name is Travis Wright. I have a passion for historical preservation. I have had the honor of meeting many of you at Mountain Man Park. As a reminder, I am the president of the Grand County Historical Association. I have been in this position since 2019. I am co-founder. The book on Rollin' Spa is Le Tunnel Mofa. I may be working on another book to coincide with the centenary of the Mopat tunnel. But above all, I am the president of the historical preservation commission of the Guilpin county. The Guilpin county is very small, so their rules allow members of... I live right behind the Safeway and I participate in the meetings of Guilpin, either virtually or in person. Sauvegarder les structures et les paysages historiques est ma passion. Alors, quand le Conseil de Préservation Historique du Comté de Grande a été relancé, c'était une excellente nouvelle. Passion est indéniable. Un excellent candidat.
On ne pourrait pas rêver mieux.
Si vous souhaitez discuter d'autres idées de nomination, vous êtes les bienvenus. Sinon, vous pouvez simplement proposer de nommer Travis.
Je propose la nomination de Travis.
Je seconde la proposition.
D'autres remarques ? Qui est pour ?
Contre. Merci. Merci. Merci beaucoup de vous être jointes.
Merci, bonne soirée.
Bonne chance de vous avoir.
Resolution 2026-07-737 approving the water rental contract of the Elk Creek Fossil No. 2.
Cette résolution approuverait un contrat de location d'eau avec pratiquement les mêmes conditions que celui que le Conseil a approuvé lors de notre dernière réunion. Celui-là concernait les droits d'eau du ruisseau Saint-Louis. Celui-ci concerne le fossé El Crick, numéro 2, et serait conclu avec Cornerstone Winter Park Holdings LLC et Grand Parc Development LLC et autoriserait le directeur municipal à signer ce contrat. Once again, this allows a good use of this water in the valley and helps to ensure that we preserve the historical use of our water rights. Excuse me, we have worked on the elaboration of a card to be attached to the resolution. So I recommend, if you want to go ahead, to approve it on the condition that an acceptable card for the municipal staff is included as a reference item. I can try to display the card I sent earlier today. It's not the most beautiful of the cards, but it's part of a judicial decree.
Où est-ce sur cette carte ? Elles sont prêtes ?
Je peux afficher une carte qui a été fournie par Clark.
C'est difficile à dire. Je vais regarder cette carte. C'est difficile à dire.
Non, je suis d'accord. C'est une carte différente. Celle-ci ne correspond pas exactement à celle que je vous ai envoyée. Nous ne comptons donc pas utiliser celle-ci.
Voilà le...
Je m'en fais.
Je m'en fais. C'est celle qui sépare.
Cette carte est donc légèrement différente de ce que nous inclurions en pièces jointes. Paul, pouvez-vous nous parler des différences ?
Well, I would say that the biggest difference is the shape in drops of water there towards the southwest, then the lot 1 of Maynard. So everything that is between the railway road and the 72 is probably not included. If you go back to the very, very old scan of poor quality, it shows the lot 1 of Maynard. Basically, this part of the pre, as being part of the decrypt of the water tribunal for the number one creek ditch. So I'm just trying to rent what we really have the right to irrigate and get, you know, a good map. The red area is in fact the area that could be irrigated by this water simply because of the course of the irrigation and the way in which the ditch, if you know, this kind of notch towards the... From the south-east, where the former Sumrall property is located, the Elk Creek Fossil passes right there along Sumrall and would be poured out currently where the half-finished increase time is located. So this area near the Kewishbone Ague could be irrigated with this water and then it would flow, of course, down to Elk Creek. This is where this number comes in, as well as the shape in drops of water, because just to Elkric, at the foot of the site of the public works 6mv, in the lower left third of the screen, we can see the dark green that would correspond to Elkric. The derivation ditch is therefore on the other side of the railway track, then goes up along Summerhall, across Summerhall. I'm just trying to clarify.
So this is the card that has been sent, but to reach your point, Louis, it's difficult to...
In the bottom right of the HRE zone, where we see what looks like an increase in the HRE zone. Let's go back to the other. You can barely see a ditch there, all to the right. This is ditch number 2 of Elcrise. It is located in the prairie, near the place where the horses are, where the Wishbone Cave is. And if we go to the other side, We come back to the darker black and white. The darker shape is a kind of combination of the present being Wishbone and the place where this new being of increase is in construction. In a way, the area that has always been considered for the increase.
But this irrigated area in Churey was part of the second ditch. And this ditch goes somewhere under Old Victory.
We will need a pump to make it go up and pass under. But it is not active at the moment. The city has never finished the ditch and has never completed the solar forest plan at the time when it was still a solar forest. I have never seen the ditch.
No, there is no ditch or pipe yet. So, in order to start using this water, we would like to present it during this meeting rather than waiting for August... A. But once again, if you want to approve it on the condition that we obtain this finalized map and that it is approved by the city staff to correspond to what Paul described, we would add it as part A.
The entire irrigation zone is defined in the exact decree. That's it. Yes, I think so. I ask especially for everyone to be aware. So in this perspective, I don't know if it requires a condition. To irrigate, it's defined in the name.
Use just this.
If you're going to irrigate. Because we're going to create. There.
It's just that the resolution refers to the part A, which is a map. That's why we need to have a joint map.
I think it's a reference. We could modify part A, which was joined, to better correspond to these limits, because, as everyone has pointed out, it is very difficult to read a scan of a document dating back to the 80s. So, if we can get a copy of the report that corresponds to these limits, that would be my suggestion.
I propose to approve the resolution 2020, approving the water allocation contract of the Elkric Fossil No. 2, with the condition that the map of part A
be approved by the staff. Any other discussion?
All in favor? Very good. Good job. Update. Do you have any news?
I have. There is a meeting of the CRM next Tuesday at Steamboat, at lunchtime.
You have probably all received this email.
I don't know if anyone can hear me.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
Paul, do you have any updates for us?
Yes, I have two updates for the Council. The first update concerns some water restrictions and some conservation efforts that we have implemented during the last two meetings. So for the week of June 26 to July 2, just before the implementation of the first series of water restrictions, the consumption for irrigation was around 360 zirui a gallon. And then, from July 10 to July 16, we saw a drop of 30% of the irrigation to the descendants at 215.3 gallons. So I think it's starting to bear fruit. Many efforts have been made, as we discussed earlier, so that if Lucas sees abnormal figures, he makes phone calls. I think you know the measures that you learned last week by paying a monthly bill will allow people to find out more quickly this high usage. Those who are really attentive, but we have broadcast more communication. Sarah has broadcast new communications at the beginning of this week concerning the new restrictions and the new rate structures. So this is starting to work. We are observing a reduction of 30%. So it was good news. Daily figures. And then, for long-term damage, are these daily figures that So the first period was 8 days for 360,000 gallons and the second of 6 days, brought back to 215,000 gallons. So by doing the average of both, we get a loss of 30% of the irrigation.
So Paul, has an email been sent to all the owners? I checked it.
It should have been sent with the last invoice for those of us who have the cords.
I thought we were going to send an email, it's the same.
Yes, we'll see. I'll check with Becky. I don't know if this shipment has already been made, but the idea is to inform that we are moving to a monthly invoice on August 1st, but that we will not increase the rates before August. They will appear on the September 1st invoice. Thus, people have time to be informed and we don't need to make complex calculations to divide the month of July.
I think we should send it before August 1st.
Yes, that's the plan.
There is a lot of confusion, for example, some of my neighbors thought that as a co-owner, they were subject to the planning of the association of owners. I really think we should better inform the public on this subject, because it's confusing and a lot of people are owners of secondary residences who are not.
The association of owners therefore asks them to water at different dates from that of the city.
I don't remember exactly the text, but they are part of an association.
As a multi-housing, I see what you mean.
They were confused about this.
We will continue to work on this communication to ensure that the information goes well. Thank you for this information.
The second update concerns the permit for municipal facilities. The state has accepted our request to suspend the limits that we have contested. We have therefore not respected these new limits and they have also accepted our request for an audience to discuss them. We will therefore start negotiations with the state on this point. The state also examines the process and the methods of determination of the limits. It is therefore very likely that our permits, those of FreedX and Aspen Consolidated, the three delivered before this break, will be modified. It seems that he could come back to some of the previous methodologies, which would be very useful. Finally, the filtration station is ready to be put into service. We have 90 minutes left. It will be activated next week at Logan's return, because he is currently absent for his wedding. He marries this weekend. He is still in town. He did not want to leave the rest of the staff to put everything back in place.
That's good news.
Especially since Nazerne has just started to draw water at Windygap Ave. Well then. Activate the station and begin to recover some of its credits to the North-East. Here is the look of good news.
Is there an anti-dry for this one?
It is just for this motion. It includes
Voilà.
On va mettre ça en sourds.
I would like to present a motion to move on to the executive session. The first concerns a conference with the Council of Water Resources of the City in order to obtain legal advice on specific issues in favor of section 24.6 of the CRS. 402.4b Discussions on water rights including the municipal director, in fact the municipal director.
Yeah, I think that's what I have officially.
4B, to discuss personnel issues according to section CRS, I thought to have said 24.6.4.2.4.F, and not involving any specific employee who asked for a public discussion on the contract of the municipal director, including the assistant of the director or the director by M. Zéry.
Et l'avocat Kent Whitmer. Oui, l'avocat Kent Whitmer.
Je ne sais pas vraiment ce qu'il a dit.
Je manque du conseil, Grégory. Je ne suis pas sûr que vous souhaitiez ma présence lors de la première session exécutive. Non, je sais pas. Désolé. Et cela va se produire maintenant, n'est-ce pas ? Très bien.
Chris, voudriez-vous faire votre déclaration concernant l'absence d'enregistrement de la réunion ?
Qu'est-ce qui a été écrit ? Le nom de Chris dans la première ?
Chris. Oh, je vous prie de m'excuser. C'était incorrect. Cela aurait dû être Chris Thorne pour la première. L'avocat spécialisé en eau. Chris Thorne.
Participant à la première session.
Il n'y a pas de deuxième. Appuyé par Souls.
D'autres discussions. Tous en faveur.
Allons-nous revenir ?
Oui, nous reviendrons après cela.
Restez à l'écoute si vous le souhaitez.
Oui, mais nous passons aux sessions exécutives maintenant.
Quelque chose doit-il être enregistré ?
Est-ce le domaine de crise ?
Allez-y, crise. Yes, of course. Good evening, Mr. Mayor and members of the Council. This is Chris Thorne. I act as a lawyer specializing in the municipal council of Frazier during this executive session, according to the executive section, according to section 24.6.402 of the revised statutes of Colorado. In my opinion, the discussions that will follow will constitute privileged communications between lawyers and clients. As a result, no recording will be kept of the parts of this executive session that follow.
