S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

Her phone. It's my phone. It's being dumb, doesn't want to get any service, and then it decides to get service, so I don't know. Does that mean it's recording, right? Yeah. You know, that's probably going to be it, too. All right. I got to...

0:28

S… Speaker 2 (20260417-1)

Call Mr. Jeremy. We're good. All right. Okay, for you folks who are sitting back in the far corner, I wouldn't recommend that because I'm not going to get on screen because my throat already hurts. So if you want to hear what's going on, I would recommend moving forward. Are you ready? All right. Perfect. Well, I'd like to thank everybody for being here.

0:58

S… Speaker 2 (20260417-1)

Hush up, Jeremy. I'd like to call this meeting to order at 6.33 this afternoon. We're going to do a roll call. Linda's here. Grin's here. Robert's here. Captain's here. And Ken's here. So we are good.

1:20

S… Speaker 2 (20260417-1)

I absolutely love it. How do I read it? As far as the agenda goes, call an order and roll call. We've got approval of agenda changes. And we'll do a financial report. Approval for March 26th. We'll do a budget process. A deposit detail review. Bank statement. Reconciliation.

1:49

S… Speaker 2 (20260417-1)

review a payroll spreadsheet and review the sign-out pay sheets and so forth that tell you who's getting paid what. And motion to approve. And then water grants, we're going to wait on that. Yeah, Jeremy does have a lot to mention about water. Okay. Can we get an approval on the agenda?

2:22

S… Speaker 2 (20260417-1)

Got a motion to approve it. Motion to approve it. There you go. One second. Okay. March 26 meetings. March. March 26. There was a motion to tap the move to approve the bills. Robert seconded that motion. Linda moved to approve the extension for taxes. Action to request an extension. And I seconded that motion.

2:51

S… Speaker 2 (20260417-1)

Motion that I made move to approve of making three installments of $2,461. No, that's not right. $2,461 each month to pay an outstanding bill for the CPA. Okay.

3:10

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

That is right. I was thinking. I didn't know the figure would come through. Did you? I did not. But did you speak to the CPA to see if we could do those three installments? I have not. I didn't talk to her. They said it would be fine. Perfect. Okay. That's all I needed to know. Whatever we needed to do.

3:27

S… Speaker 2 (20260417-1)

Okay. This is a CPA who dropped a bunch of work on us. He had this work for two years and we didn't know he had it. And then he moved and the paperwork got all put together and sent to us with a large bill of $7,000.

3:41

S… Speaker 2 (20260417-1)

It was a whole box. Oh, yeah. Great big heavy box full of taxes and so forth. Two years ago? Two years ago. Yep. Back to 1919. Okay. Motion by tap to move to approve the shutting down of the website. Linda's second.

4:00

S… Speaker 2 (20260417-1)

Motion from Robert moved to approve the construction approvals. One signed, one denied. Tabitha seconded that motion. There was a motion by Tabitha moved to approve the dumb construction, and I seconded it. And the work that they've done for us so far looks great. Amazing. Kind of, sort of. Yeah, it looks great. The rocks and everything look great. It's going to be done properly, that's for sure.

4:26

S… Speaker 2 (20260417-1)

We had a motion by Pete moved to approval of giving a $400 a month budget without having to go to the board. That's money we can spend on things that we need to spend it on. And by the way, to you folks that don't know, Mr. Pete resigned because of business and conflict of interest and so forth. And we appreciated everything Pete did for us. And I've been trying to call him. He's been so darn busy.

4:54

S… Speaker 2 (20260417-1)

I was going to call him and thank him for helping me with all of this.

5:03

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

I had a movement, a motion, a move to approve some of the long tools and equipment, and Robert motioned it. We do have a new big wheel weed cutter that we got at Ace Hardware.

5:17

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

that has come in very handy for around the lake and around the buildings and so forth. And we will use that, and we're going to guarantee that this equipment will be cleaned and maintained on a weekly basis, not just thrown in the shop and left alone. That's what went wrong last time. That's one of the reasons Joseph will not be with us this year. I couldn't get him to do those things. All right, we can take care of it. And the meeting was called to order by me at 6.38 p.m.

5:45

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

Thanks. Roll calls, Tabitha, Robert, Graz, and Linda. And let's see, Pete, you should have been on this list, too. Let me add Pete to that. Yep. I'm adding it now. Yep. As far as old business went, we had bids went out for construction. We took that in and got done.

6:08

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

construction to come in and help us with our water system. No water in the pond has been fixed. The well across the highway was completely replaced due to the wonderful work that the electrician did for Miss...

6:25

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

Ask Madam President. Mae Bolson had her electrician who did all this wonderful electric work in here. Did the work on the well over there and he wired it wrong and it ended up burning it up. So that cost us about 11 grand, but it's all fixed and taken care of. And I am actually in conversation with our insurance company to see if they'll cover that. If she'll call me back.

6:50

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

But we do have water to the pond now, so the pump in the well is all good. We're doing about 568 gallons a minute, and it's going to be wonderful. It's all looks cool, isn't it? It is cool. It's looking great. Yeah, and it's looking really well. I've seen the fish jumping there. They were calling us. And we cleaned out a bunch of weeds, too. Waterleaf Confiling 3 was located and then locked and located again and found and repaired.

7:18

S… Speaker 2 (20260417-1)

So there was a leak. Yes, but no. We've got a new cell phone that we're transferring the landline number to the cell phone. I got it. It's the cell phone has it's in the box. I got it yesterday. It's in the box. I did the approval today. On Monday. Monday, I will start the line port on Monday. Thank you again.

7:43

S… Speaker 2 (20260417-1)

And I paid for it, paid the bill outright of $199 for the phone, $35 a month. $35 a month, excellent. That sounds good.

7:53

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

Did we use a tripod phone? Mm-hmm. In my mouth. Lock boxes for the outside of the building were ordered and have been put on by Mr. Chester Havens. Yep. He put all the lock boxes on the exterior of the building because people were coming up plugging in their phones and charging them. Well, that doesn't seem to be much. But I had a buddy that was plugging a phone in on my front porch, and in one month, with it being plugged in all the darn time, it was about $28.

8:22

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

It's like, oh, my, I didn't realize it was going to be that much. So that is all taken care of, and we have a couple of extra lock boxes just in case. New business that was discussed last month. Further ideas for the short-term rental, the background checks, rental insurance, fire safety check listed above. We are talking to these people to make sure everything's in snuff before they can open up that bed and breakfast.

8:54

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

I should say short term rental. I don't know whether that's been. It's six months. It's six zero two to two to six months day. OK, and then we had a Jeremy with a water update last month and we are still looking for a CPA and finding an extension on our faculties and it's coming to be up here on the 20th of the year. All right.

9:22

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

And we'll have Ms. Janice from Canyon City talk to us about our insurance. One over the insurance and what we have regarding insurance and the grounds as well. Adjournment at 8.25 p.m. and updating this today. All right. Motion to approve the minutes from the last meeting. Amending the director's roll call to add Pete.

9:52

S… Speaker 3 (20260417-1)

I really think the question. Yeah. It says Pete will work to...

10:00

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

Improved giving $400 budget. I know what we talked about. But anybody else that picks this up cannot tell that we want $400 to go to the maintenance budget. It doesn't say that. Okay, so we need to amend that as well. We have $400 available to us if we need it without going to the border to get approval.

10:30

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

That isn't what it says. I mean, I agree. I don't know. It's doing that. What we talked about, but it's not. If somebody else picked this up, they couldn't tell what our plan was. Solvable. Let's add maintenance and miscellaneous to the budget. So if we need something that on the amendment and I make a motion to approve the minutes with adding.

10:59

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

These two changes to the minutes. Six. Perfect. Six. Robert, second. So we're going to have maintenance and... Miscellaneous. Miscellaneous. Like the lockboxes, things like that. Things that's still maintenance, but not maintenance.

11:26

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

The last time everybody agreed that Lois could help head out. No, it's not. It is. Is that on the new one? It's mentioned, but it's not, um, I guess. It was mentioned, but it's not in the minutes. That was really true. So that would be the end. I still have the book. It's still written. We will abandon that. Yep, yep, yep. It's still on the Lois. Lois, you spell it L-O-I-S? Yeah.

12:03

S… Speaker 3 (20260417-1)

Does that make sense to you? For the $400? I wrote the wrong word. Bylaws. Bylaws. Okay, here and now. Bylaws what? What are we calling this? Bylaws? Okay. Because I forgot that word, too.

12:33

S… Speaker 2 (20260417-1)

Great. Okay. Are we ready for the financial? Let's go ahead and speak with financial reports right now, please. Okay. So, the bills this month, I have four credit cards that's already been paid.

12:50

S… Speaker 2 (20260417-1)

And then the checks. So we did, we've already paid. Do the balance first. Oh, you want to do the balance first? Yeah, balance. Okay, so the total balance in the account is $173,922.93. That's for the general fund. It's general fund. That's the total. That's for the main end. All the accounts. All the accounts.

13:18

S… Speaker 2 (20260417-1)

So I, again, on my side, I only see three accounts and that adds those three accounts. The main account, the big, the normal account is 111,003.

13:40

S… Speaker 2 (20260417-1)

$111,339.43. Thank you. The account for that I pay bills and payroll is sitting at $49,235.08, but he also did a deposit today that was not added.

14:03

S… Speaker 2 (20260417-1)

And then our garden account is still sitting at $13,623.42. Minus $300. Minus $300, yep.

14:13

S… Speaker 2 (20260417-1)

I've got all that account in my book. Okay, so you took it out of the garden account? Yes, I got checks. After I wrote the check. Perfect. Got it. Okay. And I don't have all that balanced. I'm sorry. The 111 is the savings account that we should use.

14:36

S… Speaker 3 (20260417-1)

for water we can use the water yes okay and i have not like wrote any checks or anything from that account at all the balance total on top is everything but the the uh the main account is 111 and then the 63 922 is a general account that's different numbers than what you're looking at

15:00

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

Oh, it's 111. It's the savings account.

15:07

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

Which is our main account. Is it our main account? Right or wrong? Well, it's not our main account. No, we have a main account above and beyond. That's actually $73,922. But it's the main account she can see. She doesn't see the general fund. It doesn't give her access to that. Oh, the general fund's one you're not saying? No, I've been saying that since day one. Okay, let me put my note down here and I'll go back to the bank. I thought I had that taken care of.

15:38

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

I only see three accounts. And so the account for bills and payroll is the... Is the 49,235. Yeah. I can see the numbers. I wonder where the money came from. It comes out of the general account, not the savings account. So this is all we have left of our...

16:09

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

So people that bring in their payments go to that. And that's what we hope. We're going to be out of money. Yeah, we are. Well, this month we had to do two very big checks for two very, very big projects. One that should have been fixed a long time ago. I mean, we can't help it. Well, that's what the money's there for. That's what we've got to use it for.

16:44

S… Speaker 2 (20260417-1)

Okay, can I get a motion to approve or... Not yet. Not yet, not yet. Not yet? So, the last 30 days payments paid the last 30 days $17,000, $836,21. That's money in. Money in. We have 389 open invoices. Oh, right.

17:09

S… Speaker 2 (20260417-1)

Yes. Right. Totaling at $353,779.96. Again, now our lawyers, the office, does have the files that have open balances. They have received them. Okay, so this month going out? This month going out is going to be sitting at $22,788.76.

17:42

S… Speaker 2 (20260417-1)

That's not including whatever your hours are going to be at the end of the month. Correct. We have the Salida Ace Hardware. This count was just opened by Grizz.

18:02

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

And this one was for the rototiller. The rototiller? Yeah. Okay. The weed eater. Yeah. $504.62. The big push weed eater. Yeah. There was a lot of air filters in there because we tore, David and I, we got in the shop and we tore a bunch of stuff apart and got all that air filter. And decided we needed a bunch of new air filters.

18:27

S… Speaker 2 (20260417-1)

And then we have Jeremy, our water guy, and that is sitting at 3000 for our water testing. And then here's the CPA, the one that we are doing three installments of 2461.66. The consolidation communication of 106.05.

18:58

S… Speaker 2 (20260417-1)

Is that just for the line? Yes. We have Mr. David Happel with maintenance and water. His maintenance was $360 for 24 hours. And then his $1,000 water testing. He got those. We have Mr. Caleb Boyle who is sitting at $1,000 for his water testing.

19:29

S… Speaker 2 (20260417-1)

We have Matt Aldridge. This is actually a refund. It's right here. I have all the paperwork of $400. This will you guys can look over. But it is $400 for one of our community members. That is not a part of it yet until you guys approve it. We have Sewatch County Treasurer. The taxes for the properties, $1,546.

20:00

S… Speaker 2 (20260417-1)

and 88 cents. We have Dunn's construction, $11,544.55. That was already paid. Is that part of the money that's up to the shop?

20:18

S… Speaker 2 (20260417-1)

Or is that... It is. I wrote the check and it came out of bills and payroll. For that, right? What was it for? The well. Not done construction. What was done? That was for water repair. Water repair, I apologize. I think he's... I would like to see those bills one of these days.

20:45

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

It's all in there. The bills? For $11,000. Actually, it was $2,000. Yeah. Okay. So, I know this is nitpicking, but Jeremy needs to be paid under his...

21:10

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

Name. The company name. The company name. We need to pay. Because when you go. You have to. LS or LWS. At the end of the year. You have to. Send out. 1099. And you want. I have. Jeremy Allenball. LWS.

21:40

S… Speaker 2 (20260417-1)

LWS? That's exactly what the bill says. LWS. Liquid Water Services. LWS. Liquid Water Services. And it says, please make a check to LWS. Liquid Water Services. So it does have both on there. And that one was paid.

22:10

S… Speaker 2 (20260417-1)

And then we have the nationwide at $1,581. Now, is that nationwide monthly? No, a quarter of it. That was from the very first set of brand new paperwork and the bill. Okay, thank you. Yep, yep. And then the credit card bills that were paid.

22:40

S… Speaker 2 (20260417-1)

Well, Shipping Depot, we're waiting on a refund. There was a mistake with the shipping, not with the credit card. They were late getting it to the testing site. And then the Best Buy, I got the jet printer, toner, and then the folders at $362.22.

23:03

S… Speaker 2 (20260417-1)

And the printer is absolutely amazing. Thank you, Robert. Appreciate it. And then Quill with my hanging folders and the ink for that one was already on order before the jet printer got here and it's 120. Can we send that back? We are. It's good to me. It's actually nice to see it in full print. It looks actually like a pea.

23:37

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

And this is the new insurance. So for your question on the nationwide bill, it is a monthly installment of $1,000. Monthly installment. Monthly installment right there. That's a bump.

23:59

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

On nation one. Well, hold on a second. What is nation one? Current full balance, $1,581. Minimum amount due, $1,581. Just the general liability in the commercial property. But their paperwork says monthly.

24:21

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

We've got to get that figured out. Well, if you look at this, the general liability is $1,152 and then it says commercial property is $1,086. What the hell does that mean? Commercial insurance is like the earth.

24:47

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

So that is going to be monthly? I don't know. The numbers are not happening.

25:00

S… Speaker 2 (20260417-1)

It sure does. Monthly, well, it says monthly.

25:20

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

This says that the full balance is $15,000. That's a lot. It's a full balance.

25:36

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

$1,500. Right. And then they paid $1,581 right there. And so I think we're paid. For the month. For the year. Well, not for the year, but for the quarter. Well, that was the first bill from the whole new...

26:06

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

Insurance output. We need to find out there's a quarterly payment. It might not be perfect, but I have down on your generalize oath, which is the HOA in Commons, which is going to be around 5,400 here. Right.

26:19

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

What was this? I don't know what that was. There was another one I wrote down was maybe about four a year. And then your January charter board directors was about 1,700 a year. That totaled up to about 1,500 a year. Which would be about right. Yeah, that's about right. So 1,100. Yeah. 1,100 times 12. Yeah. What's the dates on that, Sicker? That was 629. Yeah. It's got to go out in the mail, too. Yeah.

26:51

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

Ready? Yep. Continue now. So, um, are we ready then for... So, the bills are done. So... So, why not find the bill... the previous bill? They're on the next page. It's on the next page. I'm gonna read them. I'm gonna read them.

27:21

S… Speaker 2 (20260417-1)

Communications was $9.40 because they bought us money for a while. Yeah. Our labor law. Those are coming in. Okay. And that was $20.90. Jen's payroll was $23.73.10. David Hatfield, of course, $1,000. Kate with $1,000. And that was our bills for the month of March. Yeah.

27:47

S… Speaker 2 (20260417-1)

Okay, can I get a motion to approve all our old bills and new bills? Okay. See if we can approve order a second or anything.

28:09

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

Second. Anybody? I'll second it. I'll second it. I guess you'll motion it. I'll second it. All right. Good go. Okay. All right. Now let's go on to... Who? Who's this? Who's this? Who's this?

28:52

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

One is a backup and one is the main. So David is the main, Caleb is the backup because when they call and they want testing done now, Caleb works out of town.

29:03

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

So you have a secondary person, the position paid 2000 and they agreed to split it a thousand a piece to make sure we had 24 hour coverage.

29:17

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

And Kayla was still stopping by the well house over there in the morning to check. So does David in the afternoon. And they order the barrels and all that stuff. Which we need to discuss the barrels because we are not using near as much chlorine because we are not leaking all over the place. And we have got way too much chlorine. We've got four barrels of it over there. It's like five years worth, isn't it? Uh-huh.

29:38

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

We've got way too much time. We need to stop the deliveries on the pouring. I did that a couple of months ago. January, I did. No, they did. They did. Yeah, they were good to go and going to deliver another load. What is he writing a writing about? I don't know. They never write down answers. Can you take that stuff back? You don't listen. I don't.

30:01

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

They won't, no. And the problem becomes, it becomes a fire hazard in that building because it's too tight. How many barrels are in there? 55 gallons a piece.

30:22

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

There was a lot of credit. So he just sent this last week, and I told him to let him know that there was credit already. He said, please wait, and if can I have the rest of it sent back. And that's what it is. We can actually get rid of it just don't really use it, right? We should be able to. Well, it's just amazing to me that he would want you to

30:47

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

I mean, you're more than welcome to call. No, no. And I even asked him if he wanted you to move it over to 2027. He wanted his money back. Because this is the money away. He told me to void it and send him a check.

31:05

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

So this $300 is in this $400? Correct. There was only a $100 credit on his account. That makes more sense. Yeah. Okay. There is a lot of credit that is on the new system. There's a lot of credit that people are sending. All right. Let me go on to new business.

31:31

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

A big lake. You don't have business. So, no. Nope, next. No, you're doing water grant. Oh, yeah, I have. Let's do water grant. All right, Jeremy. Are you there? Yes, I'm here. Okay. It's your turn, my man. Well, I am still working on the water grants. I'm waiting for an SRF to fund grant to come back around, but my buddy Dave Diss with Colorado Rural Water.

32:02

S… Speaker 2 (20260417-1)

was meeting with some of the heads of the usda i sent him an email i forwarded you that email just a little bit ago okay to be able to try to propose a grant for us for he's just trying to get as much as we can get because you know with with all the stuff we need um the tank and the west well alone by theresa weedman with western water solutions and i think that sits around

32:36

S… Speaker 2 (20260417-1)

$40,000, but we have to have that in line before we can rebuild the wells we are using in the well house, because that whole thing needs repiped according to CDPHE, and that's going to be a mandatory requirement, and both wells need reworked and meter certified and stuff, but before we can even do that, we need that west well. We need a storage tank.

33:05

S… Speaker 2 (20260417-1)

To be able to have a backup of some water supply in case, you know, there's overusage. Like some of the farms we had around the area that were claiming to be domestic, you know, but they weren't. So the tank up there at the Westwell is not going to be efficient? It'll be efficient. Well, we need a storage tank so we have some backup water. We have a 13,000-gallon storage tank, so we have some good bones to work with.

33:38

S… Speaker 2 (20260417-1)

It's just not in line. I don't know when it was taken out, but we need that back. Yeah. You know, this is a water system. We need water. Right. And we need water storage because just having them two pressure tanks in the well house doesn't give us a sufficient water supply to be able to meet the needs of anything in an emergency or anything else. Plus, we'll get a 200-gallon-a-minute.

34:13

S… Speaker 2 (20260417-1)

was taken out. We need that back. And we can't do our other fixes until we get to that. Is there any money allocated for the Westwell yet? No, we haven't had anything ready. We got a proposal by Western Water Solutions on the work and what it would take. It's at $39,500. But, you know, and...

34:41

S… Speaker 2 (20260417-1)

further grant stuff to you know grant money would be used for redoing all of our valves in the system so we can have isolation points with valve boxes that really really need to be there um

35:00

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

And even meters for customer usage. So maybe one day we can get to a bill by usage and it's put on a fair pay status. Right. Okay. Thank you, Jeremy. Hey, thank you, Chris. Keep up the good work. I'm fighting for you. All right. Anybody have any questions on the table for Jeremy? No. All right. We're good, Jeremy.

35:33

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

I appreciate your time. Thank you. All right. You guys have a good day. That's all. You don't have any need for me anymore? Do we need any? No. No, we're good. We're good. All right. Let me know if you need anything. All right. Take care. Bye. Bye. His wife just had massive surgery yesterday. Wouldn't she?

35:52

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

She's been sick. I was wondering what they did. She had a lot of cancer removed from her face. For the water? I know, but there's really specific grants. Colorado Rural Water is one of them. He emailed it to my Colorado Rural Water. And I have another question. What?

36:20

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

On the master lift for our Western world, it says it does 2,210 gallons per minute, not 200 gallons per minute.

36:30

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

This is what the state water thing says. I think it's a myth. I got it from Pat McDermott. It's state. It's state. Well, yeah. Sorry, Jim. Right there. Gallons per minute. It was drilled in 63. It's 218 feet deep. No kidding. That's got to be a mistake. No, because if you look at it, it says our domestic wealth is 3,971.

37:00

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

It says what? 2,210 gallons per minute. They don't.

37:07

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

I never heard of a water well putting out $2,000. Even the irrigation wells are not certified for that. This is from Pat McDermott's office. Yeah, but there's got to be a mistake. They don't make wells with putting out $2,000 in a minute. But that was done in 63, too. Well, that's another reason it could be a bill. It could be a mistake.

37:34

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

Because these are the numbers of stats on our wells from that office.

37:41

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

We need to get that rewritten. And that might be why we had to run that secondary test. It could be. Because all the wells are in the triple digits, or the quadruple digits. Here's the trick. Like she said, the big wells for the circles, like this and over here, it's more than 100 gallons a minute. And it puts down the egg and a half for time.

38:12

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

I just... I know! I can't!

38:26

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

Yep, on the back table over there. Yes, ma'am. Yeah, I'm working on it.

38:53

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

So here, this is, I wanted to bring it to you because Colton Hodges, the one that never stepped foot on his property, and I sent that paperwork to him. He got it signed, and I'll make sure if I do anything else with it.

39:10

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

Because now that property is ours. And it doesn't do that because of the drought. These water levels can change anything. We need to file this. We own it now. Which means we will get a... Well...

39:42

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

I wonder if that should have been a point.

39:59

S… Speaker 2 (20260417-1)

0.

40:00

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

behind it. I wonder if it was point zero instead of the zero there, which would have been the way they would have written it, by the way. Yeah, this is over here. Our new lake is 658. And I know our pond is two acres of water.

40:20

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

I'm wondering if it was supposed to be a point zero or a point at the end, because that would have been the way they had written it in 63, and there's just no point. You know what I'm saying? No, but that's what it reads. Yeah, so are we getting billed off of what it reads?

40:46

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

So there's the well number and the internet and everything. Yeah. But why did it go in and come out?

40:58

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

Yeah. I told you, Square is sketchy. Yeah. I'm telling you. Yeah, why would you put mine back out? But we could, if we had access to that, we could look it up and find out exactly why. Exactly. And that is the only thing I'm allowed to see on the bank. That's what shows me. It doesn't say who it goes to. Nothing. And where did Square say? Square needs the person that opened the account. Well, she won't give it to us.

41:34

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

All these payments? Yeah, shut it down and don't use it. Thank you. You know what I'm saying? You don't have to tip that bastard either. You can suck right out of it. Okay, we're going to... This is closed down now, right? Ain't nowhere to use your website. No, it's still coming through.

41:57

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

Because I print out square payment and Brian Covert sent the last payment at $30.95. If I see his name or anybody's name, I'll print it, post it, and then put paid. And then send him his receipt from QuickBooks. Okay, so old business, I guess, Chris? Old business. Yeah.

42:23

S… Speaker 2 (20260417-1)

All right. For one and all business, let's see. The water wells were taken care of. The water leak was taken care of and fixed.

42:33

S… Speaker 2 (20260417-1)

We were talking about cleaning up properties. Mr. Chester Haynes and I got to the sheriff's office and checked with them. Because over here on Johnson Avenue is an RV and a camper trailer sitting there. And we own the property, but the county wants it cleaned up. And we want it cleaned up so that we can sell a piece of property. So we checked on the VIN numbers to make sure they were not stolen to protect our butts.

43:00

S… Speaker 2 (20260417-1)

And nothing was stolen. And we had four of those done at $10 a piece. And everything came back. The sheriff's office was real great about getting right. I called them at like 9.30 in the morning. They were out here by 11.30. I was like, wow. And the total was $41.86. What's going to happen to them?

43:22

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

Loopy's grace. Good question. Then that went to you. I've asked her if she's going to get it cleaned up, and I haven't got any answers yet. And the code enforcer... The code enforcer needs to be pushed. Yes, he came in two weeks ago, and that's how we found those ones. So as he comes across KV properties, he'll send them to me, and then I'll get them passed out to letting the team know.

43:52

S… Speaker 2 (20260417-1)

They're getting cleaned up. Okay, back to cleaning up the properties and so forth. We have a couple of people here. This Mike over here getting a taco is one of them, and another one is Tim Wallace, and they're going to help us get rid of these equipment. They're hauling them off, destroying them, and tearing them down. And their payment for them is the metal. They get out of it, and so forth like that. So that's a very convenient trade. We do have one piece of property that has an RV.

44:26

S… Speaker 2 (20260417-1)

She wants in there. Give me a minute, folks. Wait till we're done. Yeah, wait till we're done. One of the properties had an RV, three vehicles, and a semi-truck trailer sitting on it. Well, the RV had been removed. The three vehicles had been removed. But the semi-truck trailer is still there. And it's pretty much ours. And I would like to give this to Mr. Havens for the help he's given us in moving a lot of this stuff.

44:55

S… Speaker 2 (20260417-1)

He would like to make a refrigerator unit out of it for hunting season. Heck yeah.

45:00

S… Speaker 2 (20260417-1)

we'd all be able to probably use. I don't know if I can store my shit in there. But there's a bunch of stuff in it that we're going to be bringing over to the greenhouse because there's a bunch of pots. Yeah, I know.

45:09

S… Speaker 2 (20260417-1)

Or who did live there? Who did live there? They didn't live there or whatever. Don't we have a connex on one of them? That's that one with the brown Ford, right? The brown Ford. So we do have a connex on there? Has it been open? No, the semi-trailer is just two blocks over. Yeah, it's all owned by the same person. Is it? That's what we were wondering because they had it under two different names. The dude that had that big greenhouse up there off of the sea seams, I built it. But yeah, that's the same dude that owns that trailer.

45:44

S… Speaker 2 (20260417-1)

We have a connex. We have a connex on one of those properties.

45:49

S… Speaker 2 (20260417-1)

We haven't opened it yet. I've got to lock and open it up to make sure there's no dead bodies. It has a smell, too. There's a 30-foot connex that will load over here by the shower house over here so that we'll have more storage. And once we reorganize that garage, we're going to have a whole lot more storage because about a third of the crap that's out there is trash.

46:12

S… Speaker 2 (20260417-1)

All the plumbing supplies that they bought out there and they put on the outside wall have gotten cold and brittle. Oh, yeah. So you can't use them anymore. They're pretty much trash. Really? The person, I won't mention his name, but did not know that you can't put it in a cold bilge. It cannot be frozen.

46:32

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

That's a lot of money. Holy shit. We'll discuss that. Yep. Can we discuss getting those out, too, with those frames over there? Yes. Perfect.

47:11

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

Okay, so that's some of the old business. We're in high fire, high weather.

47:16

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

these are right now yeah so we're as far as are we under moffett's burn ban no we are not but we are still under a advisement and a red weather warning now that you don't want to have us not have a slash but that's the last thing i'm doing a lot so that's the watch county can't be a complete antics that are of commercial use

47:40

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

Whoever's doing commercial burns is losing their money. Yeah, I know. It was on the other day. Yeah, yesterday. Did that take a smoke, I think? No, that was Del Norte, wasn't it? No, Del Norte's been done, yeah. What did you, where did you see that? Quarters. Just outside of the swatch? It takes the corner out of the swatch. Huh. A couple of those ones that are not, they're not center yet, they're not Del Norte, but there's ones that are over. Yeah. Center Del Norte.

48:12

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

Some of the ranchers don't believe in rules and regulations because they've been here since the 30s. Yeah. We fight that a lot on the fire department. And as the sheriff mentioned it to me today on the phone, it's not really fire season. It's scared as hell season that everything's going to burn to the ground. We had that fire the other night, and it only took 22 minutes before that trailer was gone. Gone. 22 minutes.

48:35

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

It was half gone by the time I left my house and got up there. I seen a trailer go up and...

48:42

S… Speaker 2 (20260417-1)

With five kids in it real quick. Three minutes fully involved and you're gone. And I was still dressed. I didn't even have to get dressed. In about five minutes. By the time I got to that trailer, it was burned and gone. The one that burned behind my house a couple of years ago back there, George, or Fred was his name. They went over there and one of the people helping opened up the back door and that sucked the air in. Backrafted. Backrafted. Wow, that was amazing.

49:09

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

Let it breathe. We're yelling now. We're standing back yelling now. Close the damn door. Oh, I can't get in here. No, you don't get your ass out of there and leave it alone. You don't want to be a crispy critter. And I knew when I even asked the two sheriffs that did come about the burn, and that's exactly what she said is.

49:31

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

I forgot the female sheriff's name. Yes. Carla or Sierra, the short one? A little short Hispanic girl. Sierra. Okay, she's a sweetheart, but that's what she said. She mean as hell, too. She was training. That's what I told her. I heard rumors she was mean as hell and a tough cop. She's a sweetheart. She's a sweetheart, but she's mean as hell. Are any other old business? I don't think so. We had a meeting earlier today about our bylaws.

50:00

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

and so forth. Is there anything you ladies would like to tell us? Ladies? I'm sorry. Jay? All the three of us. But the three of us are kind of heading this up. And if you guys have any questions after, just email me and I'll just leave it for the next meeting.

50:27

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

Or try to get answers for you guys as soon as possible.

50:41

S… Speaker 2 (20260417-1)

How we're going to govern this little committee. And if anybody else is interested in joining us, again, we're community building as well. So we're trying to get people together. If you want to be invited, give us your email and we will put you on our little email list. What's an email?

51:06

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

And for robocalls, just send me an email, exactly the script, and I'll put it in the robocall when I make the robocall for the meeting. Perfect. But we're feeling, I would say we're feeling very good about getting together who's involved in the knowledge. Perfect. You know, I'd say it's funny when we were talking about bringing you ladies together to investigate our bylaws and check and find out.

51:31

S… Speaker 4 (20260417-1)

That's something that should have been done 20 years ago. Because the bylaws were written in 1963, I do believe. Verified in 72. Verified in 72 is the last time they were looked at. Yeah. I can't, we didn't have, there wasn't anything in the file and I wasn't able to find anything of the original. We only have the original. He's gone.

51:54

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

We only have the originals. That's all we have is the originals. Yeah, so you guys are working off of 1973 stuff. Yeah. Yeah, that's the only approved bylaws for this KB. That's the only one that's been filed. Yeah. Good times, huh? Those are the ones that are in those files are just copies. The original is in a binder.

52:29

S… Speaker 2 (20260417-1)

I mean they finally got refrigerators in the room.

52:48

S… Speaker 3 (20260417-1)

Right.

52:50

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

No TV. There ain't no TV. I remember when they first put out the cloth covers, there was nothing but beds and tables together. One cares. And it's like, okay. Yeah, you'll be waiting on that for a while, huh? Oh, yeah. We have spent, and it looks like we're going to be spending a lot more money in the next few months. Isn't it ridiculous? Yeah, we need to be careful. We spent a lot of money.

53:20

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

Some of this stuff should have been fixed a long freaking time ago. That's why I was trying to get some of this fixed before we get into the tax season. It should have been fixed instead of people trying to... I tried to hold out on the taxes, but that had to be done in April. It's got to be done, yeah. We're not going to run into a situation next year. We're going to have a situation where they start doing the rest of the taxes. Oh, I know. I would like to see some of the old taxes to find out what we...

53:49

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

We're going to have to give along a kidney and a liver. Yeah, yeah. On the black market. Can we get the meeting back together, please? Okay. That's the only amendment of that. Okay. We are almost done, guys. Can we go to new? Yes. Okay.

54:22

S… Speaker 4 (20260417-1)

One new business that I'd like to bring out is we have an application from Mr. Chester Havens here to be on the board. And he was recommended to us by several people. He's also helping me with the properties. And he also has more. He has better records than we do on a lot of stuff. But I would like a motion to make Mr. Havens a board member.

54:52

S… Speaker 4 (20260417-1)

I second the motion. Motion in, seconded right there. No, I can't make the motion. No.

55:00

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

I will make the first motion to put Justin Hayes on the board. Okay. The other thing I need to do while we're doing minutes is I need to put Mr. Robert in the minutes. He's filling a seat that already exists that's left open. What? I need to get Robert in the minutes. I would like a motion to put him on the checking account. Should we have one more person on the checking account? Here's my minutes.

55:23

S… Speaker 3 (20260417-1)

I'll make a motion to put Robert on the checking account. I second it. I thought we all were supposed to be on it. Well, we were all on it. I know. Except for him. I was supposed to be a part of it, too. I haven't yet to do that. You should never sign a check. I'm not talking about signing the check, just getting questions answered. Yeah. Yeah. We're trying. What I need to do is... I don't want to sign any checks. Take you to the bank with me in one of these days. Yep.

55:51

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

I think that would be very helpful. There is something I'd like to add in the water for sure. All in favor. You're fine right where you are. All in favor. Okay. All in favor. We'd like to vote. All in favor. Raise your hand. All right. Just one, two, three.

56:09

S… Speaker 2 (20260417-1)

There is one thing I'd like to address on this new business before we get started on the rest of it. Okay. Okay. So we had a phone call from a residence who's stating that her chlorine is a little, she feels a little high at her house in the water. If you feel you are having a chlorine issue in your house, call Jen. She will put you on a notepad. And what will happen is David or Caleb will go by and do a water sample when it comes time. So we can check the chlorine levels at your house.

56:38

S… Speaker 2 (20260417-1)

And that's one of the ways we're figuring out leaks too. Is it standing water? Is it a leak? Because if you test that groundwater and it shows up with chlorine, then obviously it's a leak and not standing water. So if you feel your chlorine is too high, call Jen. She'll put you on the list. We will check your water just to make sure you're not getting too much. But we send out a routine of two to three tests a month, depending on how we get pulled from the lottery, basically.

57:06

S… Speaker 2 (20260417-1)

So if you feel you have an issue, we can let Jeremy know. David will go over there, collect your water sample. We'll send you off a water sample from your house. They've checked my house before, well before David was ever on the water. Is that the 24-hour notice too? Yes. Okay. Because I did the 24-hour notice that I have to give to David or Caleb. Right. Yeah. Thank you for that.

57:29

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

And please remember, if you see standing water or running water running around, please let us know. Chester and I spent an hour driving around filing three alone the other day, checking valves and checking coverts. And we didn't find any standing water, thank God. It was all fixed. But we like not having running water that's running on the ground. And I was very proud that most of the winter we went without a leak, which was really nice.

57:56

S… Speaker 2 (20260417-1)

Not until it thawed out. And that's why the one cost us so much money is because he literally potholed down the line. The water was popping up here, but it was a block and a half away to where the leak was. It was following that water line down. Yeah. All right. Something else I need to mention. The fire burn. Everybody knows about the fire burn. No open burning of any kind, please.

58:26

S… Speaker 2 (20260417-1)

Please move your propane tanks around anything that gets hot too, just so you know. I had to duck and cover the other night because a propane tank went whizzing by my head. No, Lord. So please, those little map ones, those little suckers, they're deadly. So if you have propane tanks near anything that burns, move them away.

58:45

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

And as always, please control your animals. I was overfooting right out there in the corner the other day by steampacked dogs because I was on my four-wheeler and they didn't like my four-wheeler. And I had a black bull from across the highway charge me twice.

59:00

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

Yeah, he's been in the office laying down and sleeping, or is that the other one? She's made friends now. Yeah. She's made friends now. Yeah, just know if you go around four circles and my dog jumps the fence, she's not going to bite you. She's big, but she ain't going to bite you. Same with mine. She goes over that six-foot fence like it ain't nothing. Yeah. Yeah. Well, the big black pit bull digs under the fence that he put over there. He buried a foot in the ground. The dog digs right under it.

59:21

S… Speaker 3 (20260417-1)

It's not a little sauce. It's solid. No, it's a big black and white one. I've seen that one today. There's one over by me that...

59:34

S… Speaker 3 (20260417-1)

When we were doing some concrete work, he was trying to bite the construction people. I used to be a construction people. I just wanted to get bit. And I will, if there is a dog on and it's nice, I will send out a robocall.

1:00:00

S… Speaker 2 (20260417-1)

saying, hey, your dog's at my office. Come get it. Oh, they won't go running around. They're just like, she's a puppy. She just learned how she could jump a six-foot fence. I got chased on my little big scooter. Do you know how gay that looked? Some of the other new news is we are in progress. We're working on the greenhouse. We haven't seen the east wells closed up.

1:00:23

S… Speaker 2 (20260417-1)

The plastic, the six mil plastic is on top of it now. We're waiting to get strips to put over on each one of the two by sixes that go over and so forth. We're waiting on that, but we are looking for help to straighten out the inside of the building so that we can start building benches and so forth like that so we can move everything in our greenhouse because it's already warm out there. It's going to grow like a big dog. Yes, Jeff. I'm going to be down here tomorrow at the spinster.

1:00:51

S… Speaker 2 (20260417-1)

Then I'm just moving that red rock in there to that greenhouse. Not until I get a trench dug in the middle of that building. I can do that real quick. Can you? Just go out a quarter of my void and just go. Well, that'd be awesome. Because it needs to go from one end to the other. That means the rock for the drain out system needs to be in there first. I know where to get it. Right around the building. All of them are just made closer. And then we're going to do the entire thing. Once everything, the voids are all taken up and filled in.

1:01:17

S… Speaker 2 (20260417-1)

Even if you have to go outside and get dirt to fill some voids, we've got to do all that first and level everything out first. Well, I'll be here with the schedule tomorrow and I'll get some stuff done that needs to be done. I'll come over and watch you work. Yes, Jen? I don't think you're going to be working on it. You're looking for help. We are looking for help. So what days and times are you doing this? I can put it on. No.

1:01:46

S… Speaker 2 (20260417-1)

I've been on it every day for the week. Because I don't have anybody signed up to help, even though I have signatures. I can't get a hold of it. We made it very clear. We'll get in trouble. Friday and Saturday, if you have any spare time, come down to the greenhouse and we're going to play.

1:02:07

S… Speaker 3 (20260417-1)

Thank you for that. I didn't know how much of an issue that would have been. Tomorrow and Saturday. Unless you're busy. We're going to be planning to have the drain system in. Everybody at the Garter construction that would be interested is at the seed exchange. Oh, that's true, the seed exchange. I forgot about that. Oh, that's in Preston, right? Never mind. Chester and I'll do some work in there.

1:02:36

S… Speaker 3 (20260417-1)

with a skid steer and we'll go for next weekend. Well, I'm going to say, I would really love to help, but I need advance notice. So if we can plan things and put them on a calendar in advance, I think we could get a lot of community support. You're working on a... You're working all the damn time, like six days a week.

1:02:58

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

I just need to know. Let's go for next weekend and try and get some people together for next Friday and Saturday. I will do it on Monday. Okay, Jen, if you would do a robocall for us. I will do it Monday and let it go until Wednesday. And I will put a sign-in sheet in my office. If you guys want to, please come to the office, sign in, so then I can hand it to the team.

1:03:26

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

Put it in certain tools or third breaks.

1:03:30

S… Speaker 2 (20260417-1)

Hope you're from off a brick. I'm just saying, like, what other tool order? Kind of like there were construction issues with it. So are there construction? The other construction has already been more or less taken care of. The construction I need is some people to build benches. Because we've got six or eight benches to build to put in there. And we have a lot of lumber out there, and I have a bunch of my yard as well. We're going to do what we have to build. I'm not going to go to town and spend $800. Yeah.

1:03:59

S… Speaker 3 (20260417-1)

We're going to build with what we've already paid for. Hey, so the guy at CC that lost his big shed that has a pile of lumber there that was broken and tore up, see if he will let us have that lumber and we can cut it to make it, I mean, if it's broken at the end, it doesn't really matter for what we're using it for. He gets it gone. Because a lot of that is one by and some of it's two by. I'll go talk to him.

1:04:23

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

And Bruce, if you want to pull a few doses, you can always pull my 16-footer up there and put it right on there. So are we going to do this robocall to help for Saturday? Jay, we're doing Saturday. Jay, we're doing Saturday. Next Saturday, so I can put in the robocall? I mean, whatever. I normally don't work all with both weekends in a row, but I'm working.

1:04:46

S… Speaker 3 (20260417-1)

This weekend and next week. Next weekend, yeah. Let's just shoot for next Saturday and see if we can get some people here because we have several. If you do like every Friday and Saturday until it's complete, you know, that's like, oh, I know.

1:05:00

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

If we can, I'd go down there and do that. Let's do that thing. What, 10 to 2? 10 to 2? It's freaking hot. 10 to 2. 10 to 2 we've got to drink beer or something. I don't even drink beer. 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. All right, there we go. Friday and Saturday. 10 to 2. I'm sorry? You said you were going to build benches. I want to build benches four foot up so we can set the, contains the round pots on them.

1:05:30

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

How about we build beds? The crap in the soil leaches up through it. The alkali. The alkali, that's it. That's the word.

1:05:40

S… Speaker 2 (20260417-1)

But the alkali is not bad for plants. No. But when we're at 8.2... I'm bringing in a bunch of sheep and llamas. I grow in the ground and my plants come... Mine doesn't grow for shit. Yeah. But I got... All the plants that are out there grew last year. So that should be all good dirt. There's 24 of them, I think, out there or something like that. What, they're big pots that we built in? Okay, hold on a second.

1:06:10

S… Speaker 3 (20260417-1)

And instead of like, I won't make it down here before 2 o'clock on Saturday.

1:06:17

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

What about, hey, can you build XYZ? Or would you be willing to plant XYZ? Do you want a to-do list of what, like, we can keep checking off what we need? Well, so that people can, even if they can't come down and physically help during those time frames. You can't even come in Sunday. Yeah, I have one. Oh, yeah, sure. Bye. You'll find me.

1:06:41

S… Speaker 4 (20260417-1)

But that way people can still do things. If they want to build something at home, a local good or whatever. A standard of what you need. So that they know exactly what they want to do. Well, that's why I'm trying to get with my garden people to figure out whether we want to build bins. Or like she said, jobs. Or we can, I thought benches because we had all these grow pots out of it.

1:07:08

S… Speaker 2 (20260417-1)

And they worked so well last year, I figured we'd get those in the greenhouse. I got a question about that garden. Actually.

1:07:26

S… Speaker 5 (20260417-1)

All right. I'll ask you another way. Let's get another way. There needs to be a meeting. There needs to be a robo-paw go out for anybody who's interested in gardens or Wapini. That's what we're doing. Yes, and then we can get all those people together. Maybe we can have more of these kind of conversations.

1:07:53

S… Speaker 2 (20260417-1)

That's my opinion. I don't care what you do with it. I just want it done. Yeah, it's been three years. I mean, it's a community garden. That's the deal there. That's supposed to be a community deal, not just one person. So, yeah, I mean, it shouldn't matter.

1:08:14

S… Speaker 2 (20260417-1)

Do you understand what I'm saying? That's what that community garden got brought out here for. Yeah, it shouldn't matter. It's a community garden. Nobody should have to ask permission. Nobody should have to. Do you understand what I'm saying? That's what it was. Yeah, that's what it was brought here to do. Yeah, I know that.

1:08:42

S… Speaker 4 (20260417-1)

We need to hold a meeting. We need to figure out what we want to do and what we want to plant. Do we want benches? Do we want pots? What do we want?

1:09:05

S… Speaker 5 (20260417-1)

to be here when that is going okay do we can we come up with

1:09:16

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

So that robocall will go out. I'm going to do it on Monday. It'll go to Wednesday. Not every day. Do it like Monday and Wednesday. One time Monday, one time Tuesday, one time Wednesday. At the same time. So nobody can say, I never got it. They're going to get three chances. I'm going to do it before I leave because I don't have phone calls coming in saying, what did you say?

1:09:44

S… Speaker 4 (20260417-1)

What was that? Yeah, yeah. Okay, we're making progress. We don't know what we're doing, but we're going to do it anyway.

1:10:01

S… Speaker 3 (20260417-1)

I did. Actually, the only time that they called was to confirm our full legal name and address. I haven't heard from them since. And that was four days after I sent that email that you gave me to send that email to them.

1:10:19

S… Speaker 3 (20260417-1)

I haven't received anything yet. No phone call nor an email back. We need to reach out to them and make sure that they give the extension. I'll call him and ask ma'am. He will be here. Okay.

1:10:38

S… Speaker 2 (20260417-1)

TPA. I'll do it first thing Monday morning. I'll call and then I'll send an email and attach you to it. This garden stuff right here, it's a grant, right? Yes. So do we have the grant information where we're supposed to go and report to them what the money's going on? I sent you a text message. Because, I mean, when you get a grant.

1:11:02

S… Speaker 2 (20260417-1)

You've got to report what you're using that money on. And if we're not reporting it, we can say bye-bye to any grants later on. So, I mean, we need to find out who wrote the grant, which I'm going to try. I know a few people I should probably get a hold of. But anyway, we need to find out who wrote the grant. What they wrote the grant for. What they wrote the grant for. And then what information they need for this grant, or we're going to be screwed, too.

1:11:30

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

The garden. The garden. I don't know if it was... But we also have to check to make sure they've done any updates on it. Well, see, but Mae had a grant writer. So it was either Lori V. Hill. Maureen Graham-Halligan. Who's that? Maureen? Oh, yeah. So we need to get a copy of that grant. And it went through Swatch, correct?

1:11:54

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

Swatch County maxes out at $7,500, so that's too much. We don't know. We have $13,000 in the account. Minus $300. I mean, you all weren't there. Just so you know, when Mo was a friend of ours, we were working on other county things, trying to get things going.

1:12:13

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

And then, you know, I was out of here for a while, but there were at least five of us that tried to start with the wall of me. And we were looking at the long-term plan. It's like, you've got to know who's your gardeners and what they're growing, who's going to be harvesting, who's watering, who's maintaining it. Is it too hot? Do we need fans? Like, it was all of it. And then whatever happened at that board, it was just like, they didn't want input. They weren't interested, really. Jay was there, myself, Brett.

1:12:42

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

We had other people, and it was just kind of like, if they want to hire someone and do it and build it, and they don't want community involvement, that's where it was left a few years ago. I do believe Moe wrote this grant. Yeah, so Moe touched Moe. But yeah, there's more than one grant that Moe wrote. But who was writing them after her, after May left? Because I think they got that grant after May left.

1:13:10

S… Speaker 2 (20260417-1)

Well, I know Lori does grants, too. And I know, I know, I know Isabel and all them were tight with Lori. So, I mean, Lori Vigil. Lori Vigil. KB, hardest to watch. I know she does grants. I mean, I know Lori. I could ask her. Yeah, I can ask her, too. I mean, we need to see how many grants we have. And the only grant paperwork that I have found so far is only for

1:13:36

S… Speaker 3 (20260417-1)

that neighbors helping neighbors. I haven't found anything regarding the gardens. Nothing. Yeah, we need to find out where that grant money comes from because...

1:13:48

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

I do think some of it came from Swatcha County, but I think there was more. Yeah. Because we'll have to do updates and everything else. Yeah, we're going to have to find out what's going on with that because that's a lot of money. But do you all know what to report on and how the money was spent? No, see, that's what I'm going to say. You're not going to know. No.

1:14:11

S… Speaker 2 (20260417-1)

And we don't know either. And we don't know how much of that money has been spent already. They ain't going to have the paperwork? Because I know you're supposed to file paperwork. We can't get a copy of that paperwork, what they've said there. Because I know, Grant, you've got to tell them how much you want for this and what is supposed to go on. Mike just started building that while he took over. And so he might have over it. Well, no, Mike, he ran out on, you know, not building it and taking money from the grant. So, I mean, I don't know. We need to find out how much.

1:14:40

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

grant money we were given, what we've spent it on, try to backtrack and file what we can file and explain the situation. We had a board turnover. We had people that bailed on the project and hopefully they'll beg for forgiveness and give us some. I appreciate it, ladies.

1:15:00

S… Speaker 2 (20260417-1)

What I was saying is that the horror didn't report anything to the ladies who wrote it.

1:15:06

S… Speaker 4 (20260417-1)

They're probably not going to know anymore. Aren't they supposed to have that for writing it, though? Aren't you supposed to have, like, a projection of what the money's supposed to go for? Yes. You do an outline, but you don't get the results back after you've written that grant. Right, you just get the check. You would have, as a board, had you given them that advice. See, and that's just like everything else. That's just like everything else. It's going to be gone with the wind. Also, you know who...

1:15:31

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

The money might have only come from Swatch County. They only max out at $7,500. We've got $13,000 in there. There was a lot more in there because Mike got paid $5,000. See, that's too much money. Unless they did repeated years, which means they haven't filed the paperwork for repeated years because literally Swatch County maxes out at $7,500. Not necessarily.

1:15:59

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

Not necessarily if it's a working project. Yeah. Ann does her best, but not really. I don't know. I've been writing those years. Yeah. If it's a work in progress, like the fire station, they pretty much just go with the flow on that. Yeah. Mm-hmm. I don't know.

1:16:22

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

I have to do reports, though, to let them know where I stand in my status. But it's too much money for just to watch.

1:16:36

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

In my opinion, it doesn't make sense. That's $14,000, but they've already spent $5,000 out of this. So that puts it at $18,000. That's still not math, it's not mathin'.

1:17:06

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

The write-off. There was a credit memo. And the food project, kitchen, all the kitchen appliances.

1:17:21

S… Speaker 2 (20260417-1)

so this is so i found that branch right so the neighbors helping neighbors grant paperwork i have all that but these ones were in there with it those are for street repairs this one's for the kitchen

1:17:37

S… Speaker 4 (20260417-1)

I was just looking to see if you put money in and ask for street repairs, but don't do anything. Exactly. I went through all mine and mine is nothing for any gardens or anything like that. Yeah. Like I said, the first garden is going to go for, for Lori, the beds and stuff. Cause that was my wife's project was bringing that here.

1:17:57

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

I don't know about after that. I don't know. If there's going to be any more grants written for the KB, it needs to come to the board. We need to approve them before. We have grants right here for road repair that we've never done through the county that were made in 2022 and 2023 that we never fixed any roads.

1:18:15

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

But we asked for money for it. And the kitchen appliance grant for the kitchen appliance downstairs. And we got credit memo because it was a write-off. Any grants have to come through the board to be approved first. No more willy-nilly. We can't do this. We're going to get our butts in a ringer. I think so. I've got to find that too. I've got to find it. We have a grant.

1:18:54

S… Speaker 3 (20260417-1)

Because these were in files and they were in Tina Swisher's file.

1:19:03

S… Speaker 2 (20260417-1)

If I wouldn't have pulled her file from downstairs, I wouldn't have seen it. Yeah, and then that's when, after that, that's when May took over? Yeah. The Swisher. The Swisher. Okay, we need to back up the duties. Yeah. Because we're before we're done. Yeah.

1:19:28

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

Second page, new business. Let's turn it off, yeah. I'm quite patient. We're done now. We're going to find out about that. Makes me crazy around here. Yep, yep. Okay. So.

1:19:43

S… Speaker 2 (20260417-1)

My patience is done. No, absolutely have not. Because we just found them. The new business, right here. Right here. Let me see if I can find something right here. There we go.

1:20:00

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

What do you want me to do with those come Monday? I'm sorry. We need to make copies for these ladies. Thank you. Can we make copies and give you ladies copies so you have something to work off of?

1:20:21

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

Sure. I just posted Mo. I will do it on Monday. I'll see if I can talk to her. Because I'll ask her for any paper trail that she has. What? Because she'll know what she wrote. Because she's pretty good about that. She'll know exactly what she wrote. Yeah. And what it was for and could get us coffee. I know this was not done. Now we can find out where it came from. But Mo wouldn't have is up on the up and up. She would have been just trying to do this to help me. Yeah.

1:20:47

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

Yeah, the question is not Moe, it's the what happened after Moe. Yeah, no, it's not Moe. Yeah. And I know her actually. Yeah, she's going to join Moe. So Kevin Wolligan, her husband, her ex-husband used to work for Roseburg. You can't raise federal grants and have a shady background. Yeah. Can we finish up? Yes. That'd be great. Go first and miss Kevin. Okay. Okay. No, you're a lucky person. All right. We have a few things left. Window stickers for two years. Okay. I had no idea what good window stickers were. Okay, so.

1:21:16

S… Speaker 2 (20260417-1)

Ladies and gentlemen! Can we get this meeting back, please? I'd like to go home. So, a few community members asked if we can get the window stickers for the KV because random people are fishing in the pond. That are not part of the community. We're supposed to have a card. When you pay your dues, a card is supposed to be issued to fish in the pond. There we go.

1:21:41

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

But we haven't seen one in nine years. Okay, so we need to get cards. I don't think I ever got one. So we need to get your card ever got one. Yeah, I don't think I ever got one. You want to come back to the card? I know what they look like. I've seen people with them, but I don't think I ever got one. Yeah. I rode through vehicles like underwear. I'm not stickering it every time. So I can, yeah, I would either a card or I can get a sticker. And they have to hang it or they have to stick it in their window. The card goes out every year.

1:22:11

S… Speaker 2 (20260417-1)

Let's have a card in their window. Motion to approve the stickers. Motion to approve the stickers.

1:22:19

S… Speaker 2 (20260417-1)

Here's a second. What? Not stickers, but the cards. Sorry, sorry. Cards, I'm sorry. Yes, cards. My brain wasn't open. Vote on the cards for fishing. Hold it, hold it. Huh? We'll check them if they're... I'll go down there. You get a card for this year if you've paid your dues. That's what the pawn is for, and then it has to be on your dash.

1:22:44

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

On your daft while you're fishing. Or on the actual car that you go with because you might not go in your own car. I like that because it's incentivizing people to pay their dues, not punishing them. It's like, hey, you get this bonus one. Because I don't want stickers. I have too many things I drive. I'm never in the same thing three times in a week. So cards. I like the card. We'll do the cards. How about a few of them? You can just put them in the wallet or whatever. I've got a laminator and everything else and you can...

1:23:13

S… Speaker 2 (20260417-1)

Eliminate them. Okay. Okay. We're going to vote on the cards. Would you like me to send them out every year when I send up the... Nope. You give them out when they send out the receipt. You guys got paid. Perfect. If your bar dues were paid half, then you got a fishing guard. Perfect. Or they can come to the office and pick it up. Okay. You could print them. Yeah, both. Yeah, yeah. In the office. Yep. And put your signature on them at the time. Okay.

1:23:41

S… Speaker 3 (20260417-1)

If you need something to sign up, call me. I'll come down. I'm going to do things. Are we going to let it go where they can pay month to month? You know what I'm saying? Making it easier on people? So we're giving the cards. At least we can't do anything about month until we get the cards. Okay, there will be cards for fishing permission. True. Okay, next one. I hope he doesn't fight. All right, so the flooring.

1:24:09

S… Speaker 2 (20260417-1)

David didn't get the wood for the flooring, but he got some other, he found some other contraption. He believes that the floor is salvageable. It's the mount for the toilet. He believes the floor is salvageable. So he is checking to make double sure. That's why he's let it dry out. But we have the special mount to go with the toilets. So we should be good. It's actually sitting on my freaking kitchen table as we speak.

1:24:32

S… Speaker 2 (20260417-1)

Okay, so the floor is salvageable. Maybe that was it. Hallelujah. I hope you did, because I'm tired of seeing it. Yeah, I was bugging him yesterday. Guys. Listen up, please. And then we've had a couple people come in to the office directly for asking for a dump day. I've been on the phone with the administrator.

1:25:00

S… Speaker 2 (20260417-1)

You're supposed to get back to me actually tomorrow, whether we can have a dumpster still or not. Windy? Windy. Okay. And the washer and dryer downstairs is a no-go. That is, per county, the county said we can't have a car wash, laundromat, and that's technically a laundromat. Yeah.

1:25:24

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

Sorry, guys. We're not ever going to deal with you, Jeff. Okay, so then I ask that we would be able to get rid of that because we cannot keep that. I'm the one that donated that personally, both of those. We do not want to keep stuff. We do not. We are keeping. So maybe. I need to put it on marketplace or give it away. Yeah. We need to do something with it. So I want permission to get to bring things off the property.

1:25:46

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

Got my permission. Can't we have the washer and dryer just for the KB? Just for us? No, it's still. Because all these people is considered a laundromat. It's considered a laundromat. No, we can't. If it's downstairs, how are you going to control it? Are you not going to sit up here all day to make sure somebody's not coming in and doing their laundry? Yeah. I'm not going to do it. Oil, laundry. I thought neighbor to neighbor. May our neighbors dissolve.

1:26:15

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

They no longer exist. We can't hear what's being said.

1:26:24

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

Okay. Okay, washer and dryer are out. Since you donated the washer and dryer, you do what you need to do. All right, so... Jay doesn't have a house, but they're going to put a washer and dryer. It's a different issue. So we already went through the three owned lots. They're getting... They are getting cleaned up. They are getting cleaned.

1:26:50

S… Speaker 2 (20260417-1)

Airbnb rental needs to be approved or the county will approve it without us. I will sign that approval. Okay. We need to make a motion to approve this. Are they going to be up here to talk to us anytime soon so that we can approve that? No, they were here last meeting waiting for it to be approved. They went back to Denver. So with any questions, I will have to send him an email.

1:27:18

S… Speaker 2 (20260417-1)

You want me to make a motion to prove it? Please. I make a motion to prove it as written. His renter is ready to go. All right. So, Jen. Yes, ma'am. On one of the emails that you sent out. Yeah. It said that you gave them.

1:27:43

S… Speaker 2 (20260417-1)

Suggestions or... No, I gave you guys suggestions to go over. I didn't give them suggestions. That is some way I read it. I read it the way she said it. I put in some suggestions of when I saw the paperwork. It needs to have a checklist for safety. They need to have a background check.

1:28:06

S… Speaker 2 (20260417-1)

Because when I rent, I get a background check put on me. Right. That's just a Colorado law. As a rental owner, they should have a background check themselves. And we need a safety fire check throughout the...

1:28:21

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

The Airbnb. Yeah, they need to have fun. It's just common sense. Recommendations. For every rental. They often need to have insurance on it. And they need to have insurance. Renters insurance. I'm not signing anything that's not filled out completely. This does not list the property manager's name to contact if we have a problem. It is not signed. Nope. I know.

1:28:43

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

I'm not signing anything until she gets it. And she did not check off if she has fire extinguishers, which the county is requiring. That was why I brought it up. And an extinguisher certification. The current waste removal contract isn't approved, Peter. So I'm not signing until she does. And that's why I brought it all. Yep. That's why I brought it up. Do they not have a safety degree yet?

1:29:03

S… Speaker 1 (20260417-1)

Waste removal is trash. They have to have trash service. You have to provide all of that. Provide everything. Alright, I'll do it. Monday morning.

Did he get the shutout valves and everything? Because I know the water shutout valve down the stairs need to be replaced. Oh, I went down there and mocked that again, and it wasn't spreading. It dried out. I don't know what he did. I went down and mocked it. Shoot me a text message. You have David's cell number, don't you? No, I don't. I put it in there.
