“coming up on that in there because i i read the the statute um i think it's i wrote it down it's 48 931 and it says that they that that group should be meeting regularly about over the plan and stuff and then once we do get a plan i'd like to put it on our website just so people know what happens and what we need to do because i think there was a little bit of confusion over this we should uh”
“Has the county had an after action from the Grandview Fire? Have they had that already?”

“I know I was telling Kathy and Keith, I worked the booth in the morning on Saturday, and if I didn't recognize people, I always asked where they were from and how they, you know, and there was a ton of people that were camping out the lake that were from Nebraska, Oklahoma, and Missouri. And then some people, there was a lot of people from Manhattan and Wakefield. I think there was one from Chapman and then a lot of soldiers, obviously. So yeah, it was great. It was a great event.

“We had our. Comprehensive plan task force meeting. Just talking about the surveys, our goal is to get about 400 surveys, and right now we have, I think, 165. So we're working hard to try to get those, more people to fill those out. demographics that we do not have is 18 to 29 year old, so we're going to try to target that. They're going to be at Oktoberfest. We're going to be at the Mac breakfast, hopefully getting more people involved in and taking those, because the more information we have, the better plan we're going to have. So hopefully we can get those the 400 that that is our goal.…”

“Second. All in favor? Aye. Opposed? Same sign. Motion carries. Crystal should be here in a minute.”
“We did. We just moved it. We moved it to your time, so that would be now.”
