“May I ask one quick question? Are we allowed to charge expediting fees? Do we? I know other cities do. I mean, I'm just thinking of another way that perhaps you could fund your positions.”

“No, I know, but I know people, like these builders or whatever, they hire expediters. And so instead of them, I don't know, I just toss in an idea. I'm trying to think about it. Yeah. What?”

“Yes, one real quick question, because I know we're out of time. First of all, thank you so much for everybody for being here, and Thea for, like, going through all that. I appreciate it very much. Do you find a value in the black belt process mapping that Ann Gannon spoke about?”

“Thank you very much for your presentation. And as Commissioner Cassell and Commissioner Burns, we know. We knew all this. The only thing I would say is I would resist any kind of festival. We do not want Renaissance festivals or something like that going on in our city. And then one other thing, when you were talking about different components, the five different components we're all aware of, and it would be an impossibility to have five different operators coordinating the campus, in my humble opinion. But thank you. Look forward to that business plan, maybe depending on how much.”

“I'm sorry not to belabor this, but in my neighborhood, people have little tiny driveways. and many multiple cars but they're going to get code violated if they park on the grass too right they're going to get code violated if they park on a sidewalk so are we going to allow for a little more flexibility and where additional cars in a household are allowed to park”

“I think it's important to point out that this is a draft. Should the commission come up with a different direction for the internal auditor at any time, we can direct her in that fashion. which I hope we do because she's kind of without us directing her sometimes. So I just think it's important to understand that this is a draft. But we're accepting or whatever, voting to accept a draft audit plan. Am I right?”

“Certainly I will. So I'm feeling like our peeps are at their wit's end. So I'm thinking it's coming down to two things. The recommended millage rate of 6.3501. Does that include the debt?”

“No. Okay, thank you. Does the 6.1611 include the debt?”

“Thank you. So the 6.3501 with a 20.27% reserve or stay at the same rate we were last year at 6.1611, which would reduce our reserves to 18.9. Are those the two scenarios? Am I understanding that accurately?”

“Let's stick with these two. Let's just stick with these two. And I know there was a little money found from last meeting, right, because of reclaimed water at the... Cemetery. Correct?”

“Got it. So what is the difference in the 18.9% reserve and the 20.27% reserve with regard to our ability to borrow money? With or without amendment 3 that which hasn't passed if it did were we already know we're not looking good But let's just say everything's just like it is what's the difference between eighteen point nine percent and two and don't give me the math and twenty point two seven percent with regard to what rate our Loan would be or our bond would be is do you think? Any distinguishable rate that you can think of?”

“Did you just dangle a carrot? No, I'm kidding. So I'm not going to talk econometrics. I'm going to talk, like, my understanding of something. And that is with regard to the vote for this millage. Is there, attorney, you can perhaps help me out with this. Isn't there a certain amount required to agree, or we end up back at a rollback rate? And what is that rollback rate?”

“Oh, I was saying that the process, are you saying you don't want the process to dictate? The process is that if we don't have four votes, that it is a rule. So you don't want that. Oh, I haven't made my decision yet.”

“I know. Thank you. At the mayor's education roundtable held at the chamber's education breakfast, my table discussed bringing back the education board. But we discussed specifically, instead of making a board, to form a task force for Instead of a board to allow more flexibility and get an action items to recommend to the Commission I'm seeking consensus to direct staff for a resolution to form an education task force in place for two years I guess we have to name an ending point with the goal of updating the education component of our comprehensive plan to bring before the Commission and…”
