See, there lady had the Parkinson's for our surgery the other day and she played a clarinet. Oh, during that during the during the procedure. Yeah. I've seen them when they play violins or really during the procedure. That way they know they're going in too far. Yeah. Yeah. But they do basically when they start to freeze up, they they know it. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. It was amazing what can happen. I can just see if you told me to play. Well, first of all, if I can't play anymore, but I used to could. I used to. Used to. Yeah. 20 year anniversary on my heart. Danny had his the other uh last year. 20 on on Danny's. 20 on yours. 20 on me.

Well, it's 21 on Danny's now. I'm just I'm just a youngster. I only got I was 52. How old How old are you? I was 53 when I had my surgery. Daddy was 42. That's really young. Yeah. So, I've got 13 years old. And that's why he do valves or something, too. Valve uh aneurysm repair and a bypass. Damn. They did a triple pig PVC pipe and something for my leg. Got You don't have a pig valve? Yeah, that's pig valve I put. I didn't. That's what they put. Yeah. Yeah. Because they were only good for 10 years and they make such noise and when you're full grown, you want to go with the pig. Yeah. I mentioned something about where you put a zipper on. I'd plan to go more in 10 years and I don't want to be cut again.

Yeah. Yeah. Oh, I know. They told Danny when he did his because it drew it blew out the back whole half back half of his heart. He only has 40% left. Oh, that's He had the Widowmaker, didn't he? And well, he had two of them 100% blocked, one of them 86. So that's why he can't stay in Nfield. Hi Katrina. We live feel like we're talking all around you. We see you. I do. Okay. See you. Thank you for realizing. So if nobody shows up, well, it's time to start right now. I guess Taylor's not coming either.

Okay. Tonight we're just doing a couple of things. One of them is signing the September 17th minutes, which we approved at the last meeting. We just need to sign them. Um, I make a motion that we go ahead and sign. Sign those ordinances. No. Yes. Are the minutes on? Yeah. Okay. I'll second that. All in favor? I have.

And the other thing that we are addressing tonight is the approval of the budget that was on Gateway and was public. Tonight is the open meeting for anybody to have any discussions on the budget for 2026 and I see we don't have any people here. So do you guys have any discussion on the budget? No, I don't. I mean I'm sure there's been a lot of work put into this point and our clerk treasurer been turning them in for what 35 years. So well and we did get a cut.

He knows where we're at. The parks was cut at 22,000 this year and also the town was cut on some budgets but that was to be expected. Yeah, that's usually to be expected

and there I'm making several changes within the general budget which I can for the like the general just moving money from different other things to another station. There are several of them in general. Moving from salary and wages, volunteer fire, personal services, capital outlay and capital outlay remodeling. And that's all going to go into personal services for the attorney because normally we don't have more than 2500. That's what it shows in this budget, but on the on the Keystone it shows 5,000 and we've run around 8,500 for it this year. So that will bring us up to where there won't be any minuses. and also in street materials instead of 10,000 changing to 7,000 putting 3,000 into the town machinery and equipment which is put back kind of for the skids tier. So those are the only comments I have on the budget. Everything else looks good.

I don't have any questions. I went through this while ago and I think it's pretty well straightforward what we know what we've got and what what we expect to have. So, you said those are all within the buckets that that you can change. You can change them within the buckets as long as you and there's three copies here. So, I'll send them all. I make a motion that we accept the 26 budget as written. I'll second that. All in favor?

I I [Music] approve. And that is all that we have to discuss on that. So I make a motion that we adjourn this meeting. Second. All in favor? [Music] Now did you have this Pittsburgh tank? A couple things. When we turn that thing
