NOW IT'S [V. Hearing of Visitors for Items Not on Tonight’s Agenda] TIME FOR HEARING. OUR VISITORS ITEMS, NOT ON TONIGHT'S AGENDA. IS THERE ANYONE WISHING TO SPEAK TONIGHT? BE BACK. MY NAME IS JOE LASZLO. RELATIVELY NEW NUMBER OF ALBANY MOVED HERE LAST YEAR. AND I HAVE A QUESTION ABOUT YOUNG BOYS. I'M HOPING YOU CAN HELP ME UNDERSTAND HOW THAT CAN WHEN THE HOUSES WAS GOING ON HERE. I SEE FROM THE WEBSITE THAT YOU HAVE POLICE PICKUP PROGRAM. YOU CAN HAVE A PUMPKIN DROP OFF PROGRAM. FOOD WASTE COMPOSTING. ALSO SEE THAT HAPPENING. FROM THE THAT YOU ALREADY WEBSITE THAT ONE KEY COLLECTS YARD WASTE PLACED INTO COMPOSTABLE BAGS. YEAH, THERE'S AN IMAGE ON THE WEBSITE. THE REASONS. TURN YOUR YARD WAGE INTERCOMPANY. COME THE FRANKLIN COUNTY CURBSIDE PICKUP PROGRAM. I DON'T WANT TO SNUGGLE WITH ME. FROM THE WEBSITE. HOWEVER, YOU PROBABLY ALL KNOW BUT ACTUALLY TAKES THE NOSE. LANDSCAPE. YARD WASTE BAGS. JUST LEAVING THE RECTOR LANDFILL. COME. AS FAR AS MY UNDERSTANDING IS AND WHAT I'VE HEARD FROM OFFICIALS FROM LUNCH. THAT'S THE KEY. SO THIS IS THAT YOU HAVE ON YOUR WEBSITE INDICATES THAT. SWEET HOST RESIDENTIAL YARD WASTE DROP OFF. AND THAT'S WHAT COMPOSTING FACILITY PLASTIC THE POINT IS. YARD WASTE. HERE ON THE WEBSITE INDICATES THAT YOUR COMPOSTING THE ARCHWAYS? AND ONE KING. IT'S JUST TAKING A CARAWAY DILL. SO I WAS HOPING THAT YOU COULD HELP ME UNDERSTAND? WHAT IS THE SITUATION YARD? WAIT. OKAY WELL, I'LL TAKE A SWING AT IT. I DON'T KNOW THAT I HAVE ALL THE ANSWERS TO YOUR QUESTIONS, BUT I CAN CERTAINLY FOLLOW UP WITH WITH THE ANSWERS. SO UM, SO AS YOU MENTIONED, WE HAVE A CONTRACT, SO EVERY RESIDENTIAL HOME IN THE CITY OF NEW ORLEANS IS PROVIDED WITH, UM, YOU KNOW, SOLID WASTE AND YARD WASTE AND ALSO RECYCLING SERVICES THROUGH GRUMPY. THE CITY OF NEW ALBANY PARTICIPATES IN A CONSORTIUM OF OTHER JURISDICTIONS. SO WE GO OUT TO BID TOGETHER. UM BASICALLY ALLOWS US TO CAPTURE, UH, KIND OF AN ORDER OF MAGNITUDE, UM, SAVINGS BY HAVING LARGER CONTRACTS. COVERING COVERING LARGER AREAS, SO UM. YEAH AS YOU MENTIONED, YOU KNOW, YARD WASTE IS PICKED UP CONCURRENT WITH JUST REGULAR TRASH AND RECYCLING PICK UP ON THURSDAYS IN NEW ALBANY. UM I WILL. I'M SORRY TO SAY I DON'T. I DON'T KNOW EXACTLY WHAT'S HAPPENING WITH IT. I'D LIKE TO ASSUME THAT IT'S NOT GOING INTO THE INTO THE LANDFILLS. I CAN ASSURE YOU THAT THE RECYCLING PROGRAM THAT WRONKI HAS IN PLACES IS QUITE ROBUST. AND I FEEL THAT WITH A HIGH LEVEL OF CONFIDENCE THAT EVERYTHING THAT IS CERTAINLY REACHING THE RECYCLING FACILITY IS INDEED BEING RECYCLED AND NOT, YOU KNOW BEING DIVERTED FROM THE LANDFILL, BUT I WILL CERTAINLY FOLLOW UP. ON THAT, UM THE CITY OF NEW ALBANY DOES PROVIDE A MANUAL LEAF PROGRAM. SO GENERALLY, IT BEGINS AROUND OCTOBER 1ST. IT TYPICALLY IS AN 8 TO 10 WEEK PROCESS. OUR GOAL IS TO GET THROUGH EVERY [00:05:05] RESIDENTIAL AREA ONE TIME PER WEEK. WE HAVE AN AGREEMENT WITH MCCULLOUGH'S LANDSCAPING THAT BASICALLY WE TAKE ALL OF THE LEAF AND YARD WASTE THAT WE COLLECT. UM INTERNALLY AND WE BRING IT TO THEM, AND IT IS ABSOLUTELY COMPOSTED AND RETURNED INTO, UH, YOU KNOW, INGREDIENTS AND MALT AND OTHER THINGS THAT ARE REUSED. SO IT'S A GREAT MUTUAL AGREEMENT THAT WE HAVE BECAUSE WE YOU DON'T WANT TO MAKE SURE WE'RE DOING THE RIGHT THING. YEAH OBVIOUSLY IT'S IMPORTANT TO THE CITY BECAUSE ANYTHING THAT'S NOT COLLECTED. WE HAVE A TREMENDOUS AMOUNT OF LEAVES IN THE CITY, BUT TRYING TO GET AS MUCH OF THAT AS WE CAN TO AVOID IT ENTERING INTO, YOU KNOW, JURISDICTION OF WATERWAYS AND OBVIOUSLY AFFECTING OXYGEN CONTENT AND JUST THE AQUATIC HABITAT IN OUR IN OUR RIVERS AND STREAMS AND ALL THAT, SO THAT'S BEEN SOMETHING THAT WE'VE BEEN DOING FOR A LONG TIME. WE CONTINUE TO EXPAND THAT PROGRAM. JUST A COUPLE OF YEARS AGO, WE INTRODUCED A SECOND, UM, A SECOND CREW THAT ALSO PROVIDES PICKUPS OR WE'RE ACTUALLY SEEING THAT WE'RE GETTING TO RESIDENTIAL AREAS MORE FREQUENTLY. WHAT WHAT? WHAT USED TO BE YOU KNOW, MAYBE ONCE EVERY WEEK AND A HALF ALMOST ONCE EVERY TWO WEEKS IS NOW BECOMING, TOO IS NOW AVERAGING LESS THAN A WEEK. SO I THINK THAT'S A THAT'S A GOOD SERVICE TO OUR RESIDENTS, AND CERTAINLY A SERVICE TO THE ENVIRONMENT AS WELL. UM WE DO WE DO FACILITATE A VARIETY OF OTHER DROP OFF COLLECTION SERVICES. UM YOU KNOW, I MENTIONED THAT WE DO HAVE A YOU KNOW WE HAVE YARD WASTE PICK UP WITH WRONKI, BUT WE ALSO HAVE A AND ANNA HAS HELPED COORDINATE THIS. FOR PEOPLE THAT HAVE BAGGED LEAVES. AND MAYBE, YOU KNOW, MAYBE THEY JUST MISSED. MAYBE WE JUST GO AND BUY THEIR NEIGHBORHOOD AND THEY JUST MISSED THE PICKUP DAY. THEY ARE ABLE TO BACK UP THE LEAVES. GENERALLY IT'S IN A PAPER BAG AND THEY CAN BRING IT TO OUR SERVICE FACILITY. WE HAVE BASICALLY A HUGE DUMPSTER. THAT IS THERE AND THAT IS THAT IS DEFINITELY BEING RECYCLED IN A SIMILAR WAY TO WHAT WE'RE DOING WITH OUR BEEF COLLECTION AS WELL. UM AH, SORRY. WHAT? I'M ONE OTHER QUESTIONS THAT I MISS. UM WE DID HAVE THE HAZARDOUS WASTE PICK UP. THIS IS THE FIRST TIME THAT THE CITY OF NEW ALBANY HAS HAS HOSTED AN EVENT LIKE THAT, UM, I THINK THAT ACTUALLY WE'RE WAITING ON WHAT THE FINAL NUMBERS WERE. BUT IT WAS THE AGAIN THE FIRST TIME SO WE GENERALLY ARE SEEING THAT THE ACTUAL DRAW, THE OUTCOME IS GREATER, MUCH GREATER THAN WHAT WE KIND OF PLANNED FOR INITIALLY, SO I THINK IT SEEMS AS THOUGH ALL THESE EVENTS ARE GETTING A LOT OF SUCCESS, AND THEY SEEM TO KIND OF GROW EACH YEAR. UM WE SIMILARLY THIS YEAR WE HAD A E WASTE DRIVE. FOR PEOPLE TO COME IN WITH OLD YOU KNOW, TVS AND COMPUTERS AND JUST ELECTRONIC EQUIPMENT. AND WE CONTRACTED WITH THE COMPANY WHO COMES IN AND BASICALLY PULLS THOSE THINGS APART AND RECYCLE THINGS, AND CERTAINLY THERE ARE CERTAIN COMPONENTS OF COMPUTERS AND TELEVISION THAT IT WOULD BE CERTAINLY VERY HARMFUL TO, UM YOU KNOW LANDFILLS, AND SO ALL OF THAT IS IT'S RECYCLED ENTIRELY. SO WE'RE I THINK REALLY WITH KIND OF THE IMPLEMENTATION OF THIS BOARD. WE HAVE REALLY? PUSHED A LOT OF INITIATIVES FORWARD PRETTY QUICKLY, AND I THINK WE'VE SEEN A LOT OF SUCCESS. ANOTHER ONE OF THOSE INITIATIVES, ONE OF THE VERY FIRST INITIATIVES OF THIS BOARD WAS IMPLEMENTING THE COMPOSTING PROGRAM. SO UM, WE'RE KIND OF AT THE I THINK WHAT YOU SEE NOW IS KIND OF OUR FIRST ATTEMPT AT THAT, AND I THINK WE'VE SEEN A LOT OF SUCCESS. YOU WERE MENTIONED. WE'RE NEARING £75,000 OR SOMETHING. THAT'S THAT'S THIS YEAR YESTERDAY. YEAH SO WE CURRENTLY HAVE THREE LOCATIONS, UH, THAT ARE OPEN TO THE PUBLIC, ONE OF WHICH IS RIGHT HERE IN THE BACK OF OUR VILLAGE HALL PARKING LOT FOR PEOPLE TO BRING THEIR COMPOST. UH UM, AND IT'S COLLECTED AND PAID FOR BY THE CITY. UM FRUIT BASED FOOD WASTE, CORRECT? YEAH. ONLY THE FOOD WASTE. UM. BUT THERE ARE CERTAINLY OTHER INITIATIVES TO I KNOW THAT THIS GROUP HAS IS DOING WITH THE SCHOOL DISTRICT AND OTHER THINGS TO REALLY IMPLEMENT. UM COMPOSTING OPPORTUNITIES ON A MUCH LARGER SCALE, MUCH HIGHER DENSITY, YOU KNOW, HIGHER POPULATION. UM SO I THINK AGAIN. THIS GROUP IS REALLY DIRECTING THINGS IN A VERY PROMISING DIRECTION. YEAH. HMM. AND I'M SORRY, TOMMY. YOU SAID JOE LAST NIGHT, RIGHT? FORGET THAT THE INFORMATION IN THE FINANCIAL I APOLOGIZE BECAUSE I IT WAS LATE, SO I DIDN'T WANT TO SEE. UM ACTUALLY, WE JUST LIKE TO THANK YOU FOR BRINGING THAT TO, AT LEAST TO MY ATTENTION. I WAS NOT AWARE OF THAT. UM AND I'M CURIOUS. I JUST LEFT THE MINUTES SHOW THAT I'M CURIOUS WHAT TRUMPY ACTUALLY IS DOING WHAT OUR YARD WASTE. I'M SENSING THAT [00:10:02] YOU I FEEL LIKE. AS GREAT AS THE MATERIAL GOING INTO LANDFILLS IS A PROBLEM. I AGREE WITH THAT MYSELF. UM PANIC. CALM POSTER FOR A LONG TIME. IT'S ONE OF THE NUMBER ONE CAUSES THE GREENHOUSE GASSES INTO OUR ENVIRONMENT. UM IF OUR WEBSITE IS SHOWING THIS INFORMATION, I THINK WE SHOULD ADDRESS THAT MAY BE THE FIRST THING THAT WE CAN DO. IS CONFIRMED WITH FROM CUBA. IT'S ACTUALLY HAPPENING WITH REGARD GRACE. I THINK THAT FEELS LIKE AN OPEN QUESTION RIGHT NOW AND IF WE ARE, IF THERE'S MISLEADING INFORMATION OUT THERE SEEMS LIKE WE COULD CONSIDER MAKING SOME SORT OF ADJUSTMENT TO THAT. JUST THE BASELINE. UM JUST AS AN ASIDE AS A PRIVATE CITIZEN. ONE THING THAT WE HAVE DONE LIKE MIGRATION IS TAKE OUR YARD RACE TO PLACES LIKE KURT'S BROTHERS OR OHIO LARGE PLACES LIKE THAT BECAUSE THEY DO THE SAME THING. BUT, UM BORN IN OUR INITIATIVES, OR 2024 IS TO IMAGINE HOW THEY MIGHT EXPAND OUR COMPOSTING PROGRAM. WE FELT LIKE THE FOOD WASTE PROGRAM WAS A HUGE, HUGE VICTORY AND A HUGE STEP FORWARD FROM JUST PUT IN GOOD WASTE UNTIL LANDFILLS GOING ACTUALLY TURNING INTO SOMETHING THAT WAS USEFUL, BRILLIANT GOVERNMENT AND LESS PROBLEMATIC. FOR THAT ATMOSPHERE. BUT IF THAT'S TRUE, THAT ROOM KEY IS PUTTING YOUR WASTE INTO THE LANDFILLS, AND I THINK THAT WE NEED TO INCORPORATE ON STILL INVESTIGATION INTO THAT INTO OUR 2024 GOALS. AT LEAST I WOULD SUPPORT THAT, UM, ON OUR PERMISSION TO INCORPORATE THAT INTO OUR INTO OUR THINKING INTO OUR PLANNING FOR THE EXPANSION OF ACCOMPLISHING PROGRAMS, SO I REALLY AM GRATEFUL THAT YOU BROUGHT THAT TO OUR ATTENTION BECAUSE YOU SAID IT LIKE FOR YOU GUYS KNOW, AND I WILL JUST TELL YOU I DIDN'T KNOW I HAD NO IDEA AND I'M GLAD THAT I DO NOT SO THANK YOU. YEAH AFTER WHAT CAPTAIN SAID. I MEAN, I THINK I DON'T KNOW. I THINK THE ASSUMPTION WAS AND JOE WAS THE STORY ON THE WEBSITE DID IT? COMPOSTED. OR RECYCLED OR. I GUESS WHAT IS THE LANGUAGE REGARDING SO ON THE WEB AND DO ALL PRETTY WEBSITE? THEY ARE MONKEY COLLECTS YARD WITH AGE. APPEARS ON THE CYCLING. YEAH I WISH WE PUT INTO THE PAPER YARD BAGS. WHO ARE YOU SUPPOSED TO BE COMPOSTABLE? THEN THERE'S. IMOGEN HERE SAYS TURN YOUR YARD WASTE INTO COMPOST. FRANKLIN COMES CURBSIDE PICKUP PROGRAM. SO THAT IMPLIES VERY EXPLICITLY. THAT'S GOING TO COMPOST. YEAH BUT THE GUYS ON THE TRUCKS AND THAT'S NOT WHAT'S HAPPENING IN CALLS TO JUNKIE OFFICIALS CONFIRM THAT'S NOT WHAT'S HAPPENING. AND YOU CAN IMAGINE THAT COMMINGLING. YARD WASTE BAGS WITH TRASH PICKUP. THAT'S NOT ME, BUT A SYSTEM THAT'S GOING TO BE SOMETHING IN THE WHOLE ADULT SIDE. SO YEAH, I UNDERSTOOD THERE INTO THIS FOR NOT TAKING IT TO RECITE INSIDE. YEAH, IT'S DISINGENUOUS THAT THEY HAVE IT. HERE SEE, AND I'LL BE HONEST. I USED TO HAVE YOU KNOW. PROBABLY JUST MULTI, AND KEEPING THINGS ON SITE WOULD PUT THE PAPER BAGS AND IT WOULD BE IT COMPLETELY. THIRD PICK UP WOULD COME THROUGH. I DON'T KNOW IF THAT'S GOOD WITH THIS CHANGED. NO, IT IS. IT'S DEFINITELY A COMPLETELY SEPARATE TRUCK. AND, YEAH, SO I GUESS WE JUST NEEDED WAS THAT WAS NEW OPENING. THAT'S THROUGH RAMPY. YEAH WE WOULD HAVE RECYCLING TRUCK OF REFUSE TRUCK AND THEN THE PAPER BAGS AND STILL BE OUT THERE. THAT MAKES SENSE. COME THROUGH. NOW AGAIN. I DON'T KNOW . I ASSUME THAT WENT TO A DIFFERENT FACILITY BECAUSE WHY WOULD YOU YOU HAVE A THIRD TRUCK AND THEN TAKE IT TO THE LINK, THOUGH. WE'VE NEVER SEEN A THIRD TRUCK IN ARCHERY. OKAY? SO I THINK WE JUST NEED SOME ANSWERS AND SEE WHERE THAT'S GOING. YES. YEAH, I'LL HAVE ONE. POTENTIALLY GREAT. I APOLOGIZE, OKAY? BUT THANK YOU, JEFF. APPRECIATE THAT ANY ANYONE ELSE? WANTING TO BRING IT. YEAH. SO MY NAME IS JENNIFER LOPEZ. I LIVE HERE IN NEW ALBANY. UM AND I WAS [00:15:05] REMINDED, UH, WHEN I GOT A CITY COUNCIL UPDATE BACK IN AUGUST. ONE OF THE UPDATES IS THE, UM UH , ABOUT THE MARKET STREET EXTENSION, AND IT SAYS THE FIRST PHASE WILL INCLUDE TREE CLEARING IN LATE FALL EARLY WINTER. AND CONSTRUCTION WILL LIKELY BEGIN DURING FIRST QUARTER OF 2024. AND UH, I SHOULDN'T BE READING THIS WITHOUT MY GLASSES. AND UM, THIS REMINDED ME THE TREE CLEARING REMINDS ME AND I KNOW THAT NEW ALBANY HAS BEEN A COMMUNITY THAT'S ALWAYS BEEN VERY CAREFUL ABOUT ITS TREES. UM BUT, UH. THIS REMINDED ME OF SOMETHING THAT HAPPENED ABOUT I DON'T KNOW. FOUR YEARS AGO IN MY NEIGHBORHOOD, UM, IT WAS VERY QUIET AFTERNOON AND ALL OF A SUDDEN WE HEARD BUZZ SAWS AND TREES GOING DOWN A FEW HOUSES DOWN IN SOMEONE'S BACKYARD. AND THERE WAS A KIND OF A YOU CAN JOIN BACKYARDS AND A LITTLE NATURAL FOREST AREA. AND THIS WAS ON THE CORNER OF FENWAY AND BOWLING. AND UH, THE PEOPLE WHO THEY DECIDED THAT THEY DIDN'T WANT THE I DON'T KNOW. FOUR OR FIVE BIG TREES IN THEIR BACKYARD BECAUSE IT WAS TOO MUCH SHADE, SO THEY JUST DECIDED TO REMOVE THE TREES. WELL THESE FOUR OR FIVE BIG TREES REALLY LEFT A BIG HOLE IN THEIR BACK DOOR. NEIGHBORS KIND OF YOU KNOW, FOREST FOREST, THE AREA. IT'S JUST SOME OF THE NEIGHBORS WERE VERY UPSET. THEY WERE CRYING. I MEAN, IT WAS JUST, UM, A DEVASTATING PIECE OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD THAT WAS TAKEN AWAY. THOSE TREES ALSO KIND OF CONTRIBUTED TO FENWAY POND THERE. UM AND SO I WAS THINKING BACK WHEN CHRIS AND I MOVED UP HERE OVER 25 YEARS AGO. WELL MOST OF THESE HOMES WERE EVEN HERE. THERE WERE THESE LITTLE BLUE SIDES ARE KIND OF THEY WERE THE SIZE OF REAL ESTATE SIGNS. WHAT DO THE ROUND THE NEIGHBORHOOD THAT SAID AROUND THE COMMUNITY? THAT SAID, OUR COMMITMENT TO THE ENVIRONMENT OR OUR COMMITMENT TO EDUCATION OR COMMITMENT TO THE ARTS. AND THE ONE THAT SAID, OUR COMMITMENT TO THE ENVIRONMENT IT WOULD GO ON TO SAY, YOU KNOW, WE'RE GOING TO PLANT SO MANY TREES AND WE'RE GONNA DO THIS. THAT AND THE OTHER THING. IT WAS A VERY AH NEED APPROACH TO THE TOWN'S COMMITMENT TODAY. AND IT'S ONE OF THE REASONS WE CAME UP HERE BECAUSE I THOUGHT, WOW, THAT'S REALLY GREAT PLAYING. I JUST I ENVISIONED IN 20 YEARS JUST FOUNTAINS WHERE CREEKS AND STREAMS AND YOU KNOW THIS LITTLE WONDERLAND OF YOU KNOW, ALMOST GERMANY. AND, UM, SO ANYWAY. WRONG WITH THAT, I THINK WAS A POLICY. WITH THE CITY. THAT AND I THINK WE EVEN GOT A NOTEBOOK FROM OUR REALTOR. WITH THE GUIDELINES THAT SAID, IF YOU WANT TO TAKE DOWN A TREE IN YOUR YARD OR IF THEY BUILDER WAS GOING TO TAKE DOWN A TREE. YOU HAD TO GET PERMISSION FIRST. AND, UH, IF YOU GOT THAT PERMISSION, YOU HAD TO REPLACE THE TREE WITH SIX OTHERS. OF EQUAL OR GREATER CIRCUMFERENCE. I EVEN THINK IT'S SAD. I MEAN, THERE WERE SOME STRINGENT GUIDELINES IF YOU WANTED TO TAKE A TREE OUT OF YOUR YARD. UM IT WAS THE SAME THING WITH THE STREAMS WHEN THE STREET WHEN THE HOMES IN NEW ALBANY WERE BUILT. MR RUSH AND OTHERS. HAD. YOU KNOW, WRITTEN IN CODE REGULATIONS SOMEWHERE AROUND ALL THE DIFFERENT NEIGHBORHOODS. THAT IF YOU'RE GOING TO BUILD YOUR HOME. I'M PROPERTY WHERE THERE'S A LITTLE STREAM RUNNING THROUGH. THE BUILDER CANNOT JUST PLOW OVER. THIS STREAM. UM SO THAT IT'S ALL DIRT AND THEN ROLL YOUR GRASS ON TOP OF IT. YOU HAVE TO TAKE GREAT PAINS TO MAKE SURE THAT STREAM KEEPS THROAT FLOWING THROUGH YOUR BACKYARD OR YOUR FRONT YARD. AND. THERE'S THIS KIND OF RIVER AND THEN I WILL STOP. I DON'T KIND OF GOING ON. THERE'S KIND OF A I DON'T KNOW IT'S NOT A RIVER. IT'S A STREAM BUT A SIGNIFICANT STREAM GOING FROM PACKED FENWAY POND ALL THE WAY OUT TO ROUTE 605. AND WHEN WE MOVED HERE, THERE WERE DUCKS AND FISH AND LOTS OF WILDLIFE GOING THROUGH THIS AND [00:20:05] IT WAS FLOWING, YOU KNOW, INDEPENDENT WAY POND AND AH! CAT TAILS GROWING UP FROM IT AND TREES AND, YOU KNOW LOTS OF WILLOW TREES. WELL AS EACH NEW NEIGHBOR. THERE'S YOU KNOW HOUSES ALONG THIS IT WAS ALMOST A RIVER HOUSES ALONG THIS STREAM EACH YOU NEIGHBOR COMES IN I DON'T SEE THE SIGNS THAT CHRIS AND I SAW WHEN WE MOVED UP HERE. THEY DIDN'T GET THE LITTLE NOTEBOOK THAT SAID, WE'RE TRYING TO PRESERVE OUR STREAMS AND OUR TREES AND WE WANT THIS TO BE VERY NATURAL UP HERE. AND SO I'VE WATCHED OVER THE YEARS EACH NEW NEIGHBOR MOW THEIR YARD CLOSER AND CLOSER AND CLOSER TO THE STREAM. AND DIFFERENT LEVELS . I MEAN, THERE'S ONE HOUSE, I THINK ALONG ANYWAY, THAT NOW AND I'M USING FENWAY, BUT I SEE IT ALL OVER TO ALBANY BECAUSE I'M LOOKING BUT IT IT'S IN BACKYARDS AND FRONT YARDS. BUT YOU KNOW WHAT USED TO BE ALMOST, YOU KNOW , BIG STREAM. IT'S JUST LOTS OF WILDLIFE GROWING UP AROUND IT. COME AND SAY 6 FT ON EITHER SIDE. AH HAS NOW JUST KIND OF THE NEIGHBORS. MOVE THE GRASS DOWN. THEY MOW IT DOWN THEM. OH, IT DOWN AND AT SOME PLACES IT'S ALMOST GRASS JUST GROWING GROWING OVER AND. THAT'S A PROBLEM BECAUSE THERE WAS A REASON WE TRY TO MAINTAIN THOSE LITTLE TINY WATERWAYS, THEY SEEM INSIGNIFICANT. BUT UH, THOSE FEED ALL OF THE WILDLIFE. YOU KNOW, YOU ALL KNOW THIS. STUDENTS KNOW THIS MORE THAN I DO. YOU COULD BE GIVING THIS RIGHT. AND SO AH, THESE STREAMS ARE FEEDING THE RIVERS. THEY'RE FEEDING OUR BIRDS. AH AND SO THERE WAS A REASON WE REALLY TRIED TO PRESERVE THESE 25 YEARS AGO, AND I SAY WE WASN'T ME. IT WAS STILL RUSH AND ALL OF THE HE ALWAYS GIVES THEM HELL CREDIT, WHICH IS, UH, LIKE YOU KNOW HER NAME, BUT SHE'S OUR WONDERFUL WOMAN WHO STARTED THE WELLNESS PROJECT UP HERE AND RUNS PRETTY MUCH EVERYTHING. ALTHOUGH SHE'S BEEN ON A HIATUS. RECENTLY SHE STARTED THE WELL BEING CONNECTION. IT'S HER HER FATHER, SARAH. ANYWAY ALL THESE PEOPLE WHO WERE INVOLVED MANY YEARS AGO , I FEEL LIKE WE NEED TO KIND OF CONTINUE THAT LEGACY OUT THOSE SIGNS IF WE CAN OR REINVENT THOSE SIGNS, MAYBE PULL OUT THOSE POLICIES OR CREATE NEW ONES. UM GET THEM OUT WITH THE WEEKLY NEWSLETTERS FROM THE CITY . REMINDING PEOPLE DON'T KNOW CLOSE TO THOSE STREAMS PRESERVE THOSE TREES. IF YOU OKAY, I'M GOING TO JUST END WITH THIS. THE WOMAN WHO TOOK DOWN ALL THOSE TREES TWO HOUSES DOWN FROM ME. ENDED UP NOT A YEAR LATER, PUTTING A FOR SALE SIGN IN HER YARD AND MOVING BACK TO MICHIGAN. SO WE'RE LEFT WITHOUT THE TREES. SHE'S LONG GONE, COULDN'T HAVE CARED LESS ABOUT NEW ALBANY IN THE FIRST PLACE. SHE MOVED HERE FROM MICHIGAN AND NOW SHE'S BACK IN MICHIGAN. AND, UH, IF SHE WOULD HAVE HAD TO GET PERMISSION AHEAD OF TIME. I DON'T THINK SHE WOULD HAVE GONE TO THE TROUBLE OR THE EXPENSE OF REMOVING ALL OF THOSE TREES. YEAH. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME AND ATTENTION IF THERE'S ANYTHING I CAN DO TO HELP WITH ANY OF THIS, UH INFORMATION. PLEASE LET ME KNOW. I APPRECIATE YOUR TIME. THANK YOU. THANK YOU. THANKS FOR SHARING. CONGRATULATIONS, CHRIS. BUT IT'S ALWAYS NICE WHEN YOU AND OPPOSED . IT'S NICE AND LESS STRESSFUL. YES THOSE ARE THE GOOD KIND OF ELECTIONS. UM BUT YEAH, THANK YOU FOR BECAUSE THAT IS HELPFUL INFORMATION IN WHEN YOU SAID THE EMAIL OVER IT REALLY DID GET US THINKING AND I DON'T KNOW EXACTLY WHAT OUR POLICY IS, AND I WILL SAY. YOU KNOW, WE SEE A LOT OF REZONING. WE SEE A LOT OF DEVELOPMENT AND I CAN'T TELL YOU HOW MANY TIMES THAT WE ACTUALLY ADJUST SETBACKS. ON ALMOST EVERY PROJECT. IF THERE'S A TREE STAND COACH SAYS THAT 50 FT SETBACK AND THERE'S THIS REALLY BEAUTIFUL TREE STAND AND WE PUMPED IT UP 252 100 PEOPLE BECAUSE I'M NOT SAYING THAT WE'RE PERFECT AND WE'RE DEVELOPING IN WAR HAD A LOT OF TREES DOWN. UM DRAGON MARKET STREET. WE'RE GONNA CLEAR TREES, MILITIA PAT ALONG OLD HARLEM. AND THERE'S SOME BEAUTIFUL TREES. THAT WE'RE GONNA PROBABLY WE'RE GONNA TAKE DOWN BECAUSE YOU KNOW WE NEED A SAFE WAY FOR PEDESTRIANS TO GET THROUGH THERE , AND WE'VE LOOKED AT EVERY WHICH WAY TO MAKE IT WORK AND SAVE THE STREET. UM SO IT'S DEFINITELY A PRIORITY, BUT I THINK WE DO NEED TO DO A BETTER [00:25:04] JOB COMMUNICATING NOW. TO THE RESIDENTS BECAUSE I'VE SEEN IT AS WELL. EVERYBODY WANTS TO BACK HERE AND BE A LITTLE BIT BIGGER AND WHETHER IT'S AN IMPRESSIVE ATIONS ONLY OR IN A SETBACK. THEY DON'T ALWAYS KNOW SO I THINK WE NEED TO DIG IN AND HE TALKED ABOUT 25 YEARS AGO. I MEAN, WE ARE WE CARE SO MUCH ABOUT THE TREATMENT NOW FOR THAT WE'VE GOT PLAY. HOW MANY HOURS DO WE HAVE ON STAND? THREE FULL TIME ARBORIST. WHOSE JOB IS TO GO AROUND AND MAKE SURE THE TREES THAT WE DO HAVE ARE HEALTHY AND DOING WELL AND WE'RE MAINTAINING THEM. PLENTY MILLIONS, SO IT ISN'T A PRIORITY COULDN'T CITY AND I APPRECIATE THE HISTORY LESSON BECAUSE, YOU KNOW, I THINK PEOPLE DO NEED TO BE REMINDED. THANK YOU. JUST ADD A COUPLE OF THINGS. I AGREE WITH YOUR COMMENTS, AND I AGREE THAT I THINK THERE'S ALWAYS AN OPPORTUNITY FOR IMPROVEMENT. SO I THINK THAT THE GROUP THAT WE HAVE CERTAINLY THE LEADERSHIP WE HAVE FROM COUNCIL NOW, WITH THE CREATION OF THIS BOARD. I THINK THERE'S DEFINITELY A LOT MORE PEOPLE TO ANSWER TO, AS IT RELATES TO PROTECTING OUR NATURAL RESOURCES, SO I FEEL PRETTY PROUD OF THE EFFORT THAT WE HAVE IN PLACE TODAY. I THINK JUST A COUPLE OF THINGS TO NOTE. WE DEFINITELY HAVE SOME TREE IMPACTS WITH REGARD TO MARKET STREET EXTENSION. UM AT THE SAME TIME WE'RE GOING TO BE IN WE'RE GOING TO BE BUILDING A REGIONAL STORM WATER BASIN, SO BASICALLY, WE'RE CREATING A REGIONAL STORMWATER SOLUTION TO A MUCH LARGER TRIBUTARY AREA. THOSE ARE MUCH MORE SUSTAINABLE, MUCH MORE EFFECTIVE IN TREATMENT OF BOTH QUANTITY AND QUALITY OF STORMWATER RUNOFF. THEN IF WE HAVE INDIVIDUAL TREATMENT AT INDIVIDUAL SITES. WE'RE VERY EXCITED ABOUT THAT. AT THE SAME TIME. WE HAVE A VERY ROBUST PLANTING PLAN THAT WILL GO AROUND THOSE REGIONAL BASINS. WE HAVE 232 TREES, THEIR THEIR PLAN TO BE PLANTED. THEY RANGE IN SIZE FROM THREE INCH CALIPER 28 INCH CALIBER. SO THESE ARE NOT, YOU KNOW, CHARLIE BROWN TREES. THESE ARE SUBSTANTIAL TREES. UM AT THE SAME TIME TO OUR PICKLEBALL FACILITY CURRENTLY, YOU KNOW IT WAS IT WAS CONSTRUCTED IN AN OPEN FIELD BEGINNING HERE IN THE NEXT FEW WEEKS. WE'RE GOING TO SEE TREES PLANTED. I THINK THERE'S 166 THAT ARE PLANNED TO BE PLANTED THERE. AT THE SAME TIME TO MARY LOU, HERE IS OUR CITY FORESTERS, SO SHE LEADS OUR FORESTRY TEAM. UM WE HAVE HAD MADE TREMENDOUS PROGRESS IN THE PAST TWO YEARS REALLY WITH WITH STREET TREE PRUNING. I THINK THAT IT'S IMPORTANT TO MENTION THAT THE MAINTENANCE THE MAINTENANCE, ROUTINE MAINTENANCE OF OUR STREET TREES IN MANY CASES IS JUST AS IMPORTANT AS PLANTING TREES BECAUSE IF A TREE IS NOT MAINTAINED ADEQUATELY, IT WILL BREAK IT WILL HAVE TO BE. YOU KNOW, THERE'S A MUCH HIGHER LIKELIHOOD OF THINGS HAVING TO BE REMOVED AND REPLANTED, WHICH CREATES THIS THIS REAL VOID. SO JUST IN THE PATENT 2022, OR FORESTRY TEAM PRUNED. JUST SHY OF 1900 STREET TREES THIS YEAR WE'VE DONE JUST ARRIVED 2700 STREET TREES, SO I THINK A GOODG CAUGHT UP. AND I THINK WHAT WE'RE HOPING TO SEE TWO IS A SIGNIFICANT REDUCTION IN THE AMOUNT OF FAILURES THAT HAPPENED TO THESE TREES THAT MIGHT LEAD TO THEM GETTING CUT DOWN. UM SO AGAIN, UH, THESE ARE VERY, VERY HIGH PRIORITIES TO US. I THINK THEY'RE YOU KNOW, THEY'RE SITUATIONS THAT DON'T LOOK WELL IN ISOLATION, BUT I JUST YOU KNOW, I WANT YOU TO KNOW THAT AS A GROUP, YOU KNOW, FROM OUR CITY COUNCIL AND BEYOND. I THINK THAT, UH I THINK WE HAVE A LOT OF LOT OF PRIORITIES TO OUR ENVIRONMENT, AND I THINK THERE'S A LOT OF THINGS ARE GOING REALLY WELL. SO I WANT TO KIND OF GIVE YOU SOME ENCOURAGEMENT THAT YOU KNOW, WHILE THERE MIGHT BE BLIPS HERE AND THERE IS THEY PROBABLY ALWAYS WILL BE. I THINK THAT OVERALL WE ARE VERY MUCH TRENDING IN AN UPWARD DIRECTION, SO THANK YOU. AND ALSO ADD THAT WE DO HAVE TRUE PROTECTION ZONES THAT ARE UM AND FORCED BY THE CITY. AND WHEN A RESIDENT WANTS TO REMOVE OR HAS QUESTIONS ABOUT THE TREES AND THEIR TRUE PRESERVATION ZONES, I'M THE ONE THAT COMES OUT TO LOOK AT THE TREE AND I DO NOT GIVE PERMISSION TO REMOVE A TREE BECAUSE IT'S UGLY BECAUSE I DON'T LIKE IT BECAUSE IT'S TOO MUCH SHADE. THE TREES CAN ONLY BE REMOVED IF THEY ARE DEAD OR DANGEROUS HAZARD TO THE TO THE RESIDENTS AND THE PEOPLE OF THE AREA. SO. THEY'RE USUALLY MARKED. AND THEN YOU WOULD BE TOLD WHEN YOU BUY THE PROPERTY. LIKE THIS. AND APPLAUSE ABOUT THE FUTURE. NEEDS TO BE REVIEWED IN PERSON, AND I DON'T. SIX FOR ONE IN PARTICULAR ONE, BUT THERE WAS A REPLACEMENT. TWO HRS! HIT [00:30:02] FOR THAT. NO SO THERE THERE'S DEFINITELY A ANOTHER LAYER IN IN MOST COUNTRY CLUB COMMUNITIES IN THE CITY IS THAT THERE ARE DEED RESTRICTIONS THAT HAVE BEEN APPLIED TO THOSE LOTS BEFORE THEY WERE PURCHASED. AND SO THE DEED RESTRICTIONS ARE ESSENTIALLY OVER AND ABOVE ANY OF OUR ZONING REQUIREMENTS THAT WE WOULD HAVE INTERNALLY SO I THINK THEN, AND I DON'T KNOW FOR SURE. BUT I THINK THAT THOSE MAY HAVE BEEN H O A SIGNS THAT WERE IN PLACE BECAUSE IT WOULDN'T SURPRISE ME AT ALL. IF THEY WOULD HAVE, YOU KNOW REQUIREMENTS TO THAT TO THAT REGARD. BUT I THAT THE TREE REPLACEMENT ELEMENT HAS NOT BEEN SOMETHING FROM THE CITY AT THIS POINT. OKAY, LET ME SEE. THAT'S GOOD. YEAH. YOU KNOW, MIKE, SORRY. LAST QUESTION ABOUT THE STREAMS ON THE PERSON'S PROPERTY. ARE THERE ANY REGULATIONS ABOUT WATER. IT'S ON YOUR PROPERTY. YEAH SO, UM, IF THEY IF A LAND AREA IS GOING TO BE DEVELOPED, THE FIRST THING THAT WE WOULD REQUIRE WOULD BE A JURISDICTIONAL DETERMINATION. SO BASICALLY, THAT'S AN ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENTIST OR AN ENVIRONMENTAL ENVIRONMENTAL ENGINEER, GOING OUT TO A SITE AND BASICALLY EVALUATING. IS THIS A JURISDICTIONAL WATERWAY? WOULD THIS BE CLASSIFIED AS A WATERWAY OF THE STATE OF OHIO? AND THERE'S A DIFFERENCE BECAUSE THE ROADSIDE DITCH IS NOT NECESSARILY A JURISDICTIONAL WATERWAY, YOU KNOW, A SWELL THAT MIGHT BE IN YOUR BACKYARD THAT LEADS TO A CATCH BASIN. THAT'S NOT A JURISDICTIONAL WATERWAY. BUT CERTAINLY, YOU KNOW, ROSE RUN ROSE RUN STREAM AND SOME OF THE TRIBUTARY LINES THAT WOULD CONNECT TO THAT WOULD DEFINITELY BE CONSIDERED A JURISDICTIONAL WATERWAY. IF IT'S DETERMINED TO BE A JURISDICTIONAL WATERWAY, THERE IS A HOST OF REQUIREMENTS THAT NEED TO BE MET BOTH HERE IN NEW ALBANY AS WELL AS IN THE STATES, A POTENTIALLY ARMY CORPS OF ENGINEERS BASED ON IMPACT, YOU KNOW, PROXIMITY OF DEVELOPMENT TO THE CORRIDOR. WE HIGHLY REGULATE A STREAM CORRIDOR PROTECTION ZONE. SO BASICALLY WE, YOU KNOW, IT'S AN EVALUATION OF YOU KNOW, AND THIS WOULD YOU BE A SITUATION WHERE WE MIGHT INTRODUCE A CONSERVATION EASEMENT THAT WOULD GIVE US THE ABILITY OF ENFORCEMENT? UM YOU KNOW, IF THERE IS A STREAM THAT GOES THROUGH PRIVATE PROPERTY THAT IS NOT NECESSARILY WITHIN CONSERVATION EASEMENT. WE DON'T HAVE THE SAME AUTHORITY WITH REGARD TO REGULATING TREE REMOVAL. WE DO HAVE AUTHORITY UNDER THE OHIO REVISED CODE IF THEY'RE CAUSING, UM, YOU KNOW SEDIMENT LADEN WATER TO BE DISCHARGED INTO THE WATERS THAT WATERWAYS OF THE STATE. UM SO AS AN AS AN M S FOUR COMMUNITY WITH YOU KNOW, WE HAVE SEPARATED STORM SEWERS. SANITARY IS WHO OUR SYSTEM. WE HAVE AN OBLIGATION TO ENSURE THAT THOSE SITUATIONS ARE DEALT WITH AND THAT ACTUALLY, THAT'S ME THE IDEAL WITH THAT AND OUR TEAM. UM SO I GUESS TO ANSWER YOUR QUESTION ANY KIND OF NEW DEVELOPMENT AS CASEY MENTIONED, AND I ALSO I NEED TO GIVE CREDIT TO OUR PLANNING COMMISSION. I THINK WE HAVE A R CHAIR AND OTHER MEMBERS OF OUR PLANNING COMMISSION PLACE A VERY HIGH PRIORITY ON JUST ENVIRONMENTAL STEWARDSHIP. AND THEY ARE VERY PROTECTED. THEY'RE VERY, UM. IF YOU HAVEN'T SEEN, YOU KNOW, LIKE A REZONING GO THROUGH OUR PLANNING COMMISSION. IT'S PROBABLY WORTH WATCHING BECAUSE THEY ARE UM, FEARS. I DON'T KNOW . LET'S SPEAK FOR MYSELF, I GUESS, BUT, UM BUT TO THAT END, WE DEFINITELY HAVE CODIFIED ORDINANCES THAT REQUIRED THE DEDICATION OF STREAM QUARTER PROTECTION ZONES. THE STREAM CORRIDOR PROTECTION ZONES VARY IN WIDTH, BASED ON THE DRAINAGE AREA OF A STREAM BASED ON THE SIDE SLOPES AND BASICALLY THAT JUST YOU KNOW, OTHERWISE, THE FLOOD CARRYING CAPACITY OF THE STREAM, SO THERE'S LAYERS OF THINGS THAT GO INTO IT. IT'S NOT JUST 50 FT FROM THE SIDE EVERY TIME IT COULD VARY BASED ON ACTUAL CONDITIONS, BUT UM, WITHOUT A DOUBT. THAT'S SOMETHING THAT IS THAT IS DEFINITELY REGULATED BY US, SO I THINK WE'VE DONE A LOT OF A LOT BETTER JOB. PROBABLY IN THE LAST 10 OR 15 YEARS OF DOING THAT, I THINK MAYBE WHAT SOME OF WHAT YOU'RE SEEING IS RELATED TO SOME OF THE INITIAL DEVELOPMENT IN NEW ALBANY, AND I DON'T KNOW THAT YOU KNOW ARE THE SOPHISTICATION WAS QUITE THERE AT THAT TIME, AND I THINK WE CONTINUE TO GET MORE SOPHISTICATED OVER TIME. SO IT'S KIND OF A WE WOULD HOPE THAT WE WOULDN'T HAVE THOSE SITUATIONS AND NEW DEVELOPMENTS AND I DON'T BELIEVE THAT WE WOULD NO. I DON'T KNOW IF I ANSWER YOUR QUESTION, PETER, RIGHT? GREAT ANYTHING THAT'S BAD. FROM ANYONE. ELSE OUTSIDE FROM VISITOR TO BRING FORWARD. ALL RIGHT. I THINK IT'S TIME WE WANT TO CONNECT THEM INTO BUSINESS. HMM. IF I COULD JUST INTERJECT [00:35:01] HERE. I HAVE AN ANSWER FROM OHIO . I'M SORRY FROM RUM CAY. ALL OF THE YARD WASTE IN THE CITY OF NEW ALBANY GOES FROM ROOM KEY TO OHIO MARGIN IS COMPOSTED IN RETURN TO MULCH OR SOME OTHER MATERIAL, SO NONE OF THAT REACHES A LANDFILL. SO WE WILL LOOK AT OUR MESSAGING. YOU'RE GETTING PICKED UP ON THE SAME TRUCK. YEAH WE NEED TO INVESTIGATE THAT BECAUSE I DON'T THINK THAT'S HOW IT'S SUPPOSED TO HAPPEN WITH FRONT. H O A LEADERSHIP HAVE ALREADY THAT'S JUST ONE THING ON THE ISSUES. NO. IT MUST BE MISUNDERSTANDING. OKAY, SERIOUS. LET'S GET HANDLED OUT. UNDERSTOOD LET ME FOLLOW UP WITH YOU. I JUST HEARD BACK FROM THE CONTACT THAT I HAVE WITH WITH FRANKIE. BUT UM, I'D LIKE TO KNOW MORE SPECIFIC ABOUT YOU KNOW WHERE YOU LIVE, AND JUST MAKE SURE THAT WE'RE FULLY ALIGNED HERE SO BUT I THINK BY AND LARGE, I'M CONFIDENT THAT IT ACTUALLY LOADED ONTO A SEPARATE TRUCK. FOR MOST OF THE KIDS. YEAH THAT'S HOW IT'S ALWAYS BEEN RIGHT. YEAH I MEAN, I ASSUMED IT WAS FOR ALL THE NEIGHBORS, ALL THE COMMUNITY, BUT I DON'T KNOW. I NEED TO CONFIRM THAT, THOUGH, SO MORE TO COME. CAN TURN OVER THE STEP FOR EDUCATIONAL MOMENT. [VI. Educational Moment – “Food Waste Problem is Growing Worse” Columbus Dispatch Article] THIS EDUCATIONAL MOMENT DOESN'T NEED TO TAKE THAT LONG. UM BROUGHT TO YOU BY BROUGHT TO YOU BY, UM I PROVIDED THE ARTICLE FROM THE DISPATCH CALLED FOOD WASTE PROBLEM IS GROWING WORSE, AND I THINK IT'S MORE OF WHAT A LOT OF US ALREADY KNOW AND ARE AWARE OF. UM AND I WELCOME ANY THOUGHTS AND COMMENTS ON THE ARTICLE. IF YOU HAD ANYTHING SPECIFIC THAT YOU WANTED TO TALK ABOUT UM, I ALSO WANTED TO NOTE THE ARTICLE WENT HAND IN HAND WITH A MEETING I ATTENDED LAST WEEK HOSTED BY SWAY CO. IT WAS A FOOD WASTE ACTION PLAN. UM MEETING. THAT BROUGHT TOGETHER STAKEHOLDERS FROM CENTRAL OHIO TO DISCUSS PROGRESS THAT'S BEEN MADE ON THE FOOD WASTE ACTION PLAN THAT WAS PUT TOGETHER. 35 YEARS AGO. UM AND THINK ABOUT HOW WE WANT TO UPDATE THOSE GOALS GOING FORWARD, AND I THOUGHT IT WAS ACTUALLY A VERY APPROPRIATE VENUE TO LIKE. TALK ABOUT SOME OF THE IDEAS THAT YOU HAVE. DISCUSSED TO ME, UM AND ONE THING TO NOTE IS THAT THEY ARE, YOU KNOW, IT SEEMS LIKE FULL STEAM AHEAD TO UM PULL TOGETHER THIS REGIONAL. ORGANIC COLLECTION. UM, THAT WOULD BE UH, SIMILAR TO. YOU'RE RECYCLING AND TRASH PICKUP THAT WOULD COLLECT ALL YARD WASTE. AND SO THIS IS I MEAN, IT'S THEY STILL HAVE A LOT OF WORK TO BE DONE, AND SO IT'S NOT GOING TO HAPPEN. PROBABLY WITHIN THE NEXT FEW YEARS, BUT LONG TERM. UM, THAT IS SOMETHING THAT COLLECTIVELY, CENTRAL OHIO IS WORKING TOWARDS, UM AND YOU'LL SEE THIS GRAPHIC HERE TALKING ABOUT PREVENTION AND RESCUE. ULTIMATELY UM, THEY'RE KIND OF LIKE THREE STEPS THAT THEY. FOR THREE CATEGORIES OF ACTIONS THAT THEY WANT TO INCLUDE IN THIS PLAN, THE FIRST BEING PREVENTION WE CAN REDUCE THE AMOUNT OF FOOD THAT IS BEING PURCHASED WITHOUT THE INTENT TO EAT. UM THEN WE CAN YOU KNOW, REDUCE THE AMOUNT THAT ENDS UP IN THE LANDFILL. IF WE STILL NEED TO PURCHASE A CERTAIN QUANTITY, BUT THEN IT GOES ON USED THEIR ORGANIZATIONS IN CENTRAL OHIO THAT CAN PICK UP THAT FOOD AND TAKE IT TO COMMUNITIES THAT CAN USE IT AND WHETHER THAT BE FOOD PANTRIES OR SPECIFIC NEIGHBORHOODS OR APARTMENT COMPLEXES, EVEN THAT KIND OF THING AND THEN LAST STEP RECYCLING OR COMPOSTING. UM. AND THE AND SO LIKE. THE HOPE IS THAT ALL FOOD WASTE GETS COLLECTED IN THOSE THREE MANNERS. UM SO I MET A WOMAN THERE NAMED SARAH GALLAGHER. SHE IS, UM, THE ORGANIZER LEAD OF WORTHINGTON'S GREEN TEAM, AND THAT IS A NONPROFIT ENTITY SEPARATE FROM THE CITY. THAT IS REALLY YOU KNOW, BOOTS ON THE GROUND, ACTUALLY IMPLEMENTING THINGS LIKE UM. EACH YEAR. THEY HAVE A DIFFERENT SUBJECT THAT THEY FOCUS ON AND THIS PAST YEAR IT'S BEEN FOOD WASTE REDUCTION, AND SO THEY'LL GO OUT TO THE FARMER'S MARKETS. UM, AND HAVE A SEPARATE CONTAINER FOR COMPOST, AND THEY'LL STAND THERE. THEY HAVE A TEAM OF VOLUNTEERS AND PROJECT MANAGERS, UM COMPLETE. IT'S ALL VOLUNTEER BASED, UM AND [00:40:06] THEY'LL STAND THERE AND HELP DIRECT PEOPLE WHERE TO PUT THINGS. UM THEY ALSO GOT THEY WORK CLOSELY WITH SUEDE CO. TWO TO APPLY FOR GRANTS THAT ARE APPROPRIATE FOR THE ORGANIZATION . THEY'VE THEY'VE GOT DECALS THAT GO ON ALL THE RECYCLING BINS THAT SHOW EXACTLY WHAT CAN GO IN THERE, AND IT'S JUST LIKE A DONUT SHAPE THAT GOES AROUND. UM THOSE STANDARD ONES THAT WE HAVE OUT AT ROSA RUN. UM AND SO SHE SHE WAS MORE THAN WILLING TO COME AND SPEAK. AND SO IF YOU ALL ARE INTERESTED IN THAT AND HEARING WHAT SHE DOES WITH HER TEAM. UM, I THINK I WOULD LIKE TO HAVE HER COME IN, MAYBE IN THE FIRST FEW MONTHS OF NEXT YEAR. THAT'S GREAT. AND JUST AS A PLUG FOR PEPSI. THERE'S THE RESIDENT. OHIO. OF COURSE WE NOW AND SO THE LAST MEETING WAS AT WORTH. FOR SHE WAS ABLE TO SHOWCASE. THE WORK THAT THEY'RE DOING IN FUTURE MEETINGS WILL BE TRYING TO SET IT UP WHERE EACH COMMUNITY WHO WANTS TO BE ABLE TO HOST TWO MORE FORWARDS LIKE THIS. NO, THANK YOU KINDLY FOR THE MOST PART. THE HEARST. CAN SHOW OFF AS WELL AS CONDUCT REGULAR BUSINESS, ENSURING BEST PRACTICE. IF WE WANT TO. HOST. LANDLORD. GO TO SOME OF. TO SEE AND SAY WHAT. I GUESS I THINK WE TOUCHED ON THIS WHEN WE'RE TALKING ABOUT COMPOST LAST YEAR, BUT THE ONE THE ARTICLE THAT STEP THAT TO ME WAS HOUSEHOLDS ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR AT LEAST 40% OF FOOD WASTE IN THE U. S. SO LIKE IF YOU TAKE THE ALL THE TARGETED THOUSANDS OF POUNDS HOLDS RESPONSIBLE FOR 40. SO THE OTHER 60% WE'RE TALKING ABOUT. RESTAURANTS, GROCERY STORES. AND I THINK WE TALKED ABOUT DOING FOCUSING ON COMMERCIAL USAGE. SCHOOL CAFETERIAS. UM SO I THINK THAT KIND OF CRYSTALLIZES. WE CAN GO AFTER 60% OF THE WASTE. WITH JUST A HANDFUL OF BUSINESSES, POSSIBLY IN THE CITY. UM SO I DON'T KNOW. I KNOW. YOU KNOW, IT'S GREAT COMPOSTING PROGRAM DOING WELL, AND FOLKS ARE UTILIZING THAT, BUT I THINK WE MAKE IT EASY FOR BUSINESSES TO USE IT AND I MEAN, I DON'T KNOW IF YOU RECOMMEND BEHIND KROGER'S FINE JULY DAY. IT SMELLS AWESOME BECAUSE THAT DON'T HERE IS FULL OF, UM SO I DON'T KNOW IT COULD BE. THAT'S JUST THE SEE THAT KIND OF PULLED FROM IT. MAYBE WE NEED TO KIND OF DOUBLE DOWN ON HOW WE CAN HELP OUR BUSINESSES DOWN WHEN YOU REALIZED THAT. 85 5% OF THE 40. RIGHT? IT'S A NO BRAINER. YEAH, YOU CAN JUST KEEP. AND THAT WAS ALSO AT THE MEETING. THAT WAS DEFINITELY SOMETHING THAT WAS NOTED. UH HUH. PEOPLE. WERE ASKED WHO'S MISSING FROM THIS MEETING, AND PEOPLE WERE SAYING BUSINESSES THEY SHOULD BE HERE SO UM, IT'S DEFINITELY THAT'S A REGIONAL UM, COMMONALITY. DO YOU THINK. I HAD A CONVERSATION. DROP OFF SERVICE. ANY QUESTIONS? I MIGHT. DEFINITELY, YEAH. I UNDERSTAND. SHARING UPWARDS. DISTANCE. PERSONAL CONTACTS. I HAVE. ZERO WORK WITH RESTAURANTS AND. COMMERCIAL ENTITIES OR THEY STRICTLY I HAVEN'T SEEN THAT. BUT THAT DOESN'T MEAN THEY DON'T . YEAH OKAY. BIG CONTRACT NATIONWIDE. CONDI SOME OTHER YEAH. SO MOSTLY IT'S PLACES WITH LIKE CAFETERIA. PROVIDING COMPOST OF ALL. PETITIONS OR WHATEVER. NICE SENSE WOULD GO ZERO IS THAT. WE GOT TO THINKING ABOUT THE BUSINESSES HERE. WE [00:45:03] WERE JUST CREATE A MODEL WHERE YOU KNOW? THE RESTAURANT. MAKING COLLAPSE. ON THE FLIGHT. YEAH. CANADIAN BUT THE ANSWER TO YOUR QUESTION IS YES, THEY DO. THEY DO. FOR THAT 60. YEAH, I DIDN'T ACTUALLY WRAPPED UP. FUNDS WEEKS BACK LIKE UNIVERSITIES. PERFECT. IT'S. BUT HE SAID EVERYTHING POINT CONVERSATION. YOU WANT TO? YOU KNOW THE REST TWO YEARS. I THINK WE'VE NOT APPLIED. STRAIGHT UP. YOU KNOW, I JUST THINK WE DIDN'T HAVE A GREAT AND DEERS. BONDS SOLD TAPE, WHATEVER BUSINESS WITH ME TO GET A COPY. MATERIAL ALMOST THERE ISN'T BAD. STOPPING, THEN HAVING IN ITSELF. VOCATIONAL. FEELS LIKE A REALLY GOOD, GRANDMA. YEAH, MAYBE SOMETHING WE CAN START. IN ITS ENGLISH SEVERAL LINES. FOR AN HOUR. YOU KNOW, AND THEN FIGURE OUT. YES, YEAH. YEAH. ALRIGHT. NEXT STEP. WE UM, ARE SO EXCITED TO HAVE ALL OF YOU HERE TO TALK [VII. Business] ABOUT YOUR PROJECT. UM UNFORTUNATELY, THE NOEL'S COULD NOT BE HERE. UM, BECAUSE THEY ARE SICK. UM AND SO WHAT? WE, UM THAT'S I MEAN, NO L. GRIFFITH CAME AT LAST MONTH'S MEETING, AND SO, UM I THINK, AND SHE'S MET WITH ME INDIVIDUALLY, SO AND AS WELL AS PETE. AND SO I THINK EITHER OF US ARE HAPPY TO ANSWER QUESTIONS. UM BUT I THINK WE CAN, UM JUST HAVE LILY INTRODUCED THEIR PROJECT AND, UM . ALRIGHT SO OUR PROJECT IS SO WE NOTICED AT THE PICKUP LOTS IN THE PARKING LOTS AT OUR SCHOOL THAT PEOPLE JUST HERC KIND OF SHOP EARLY AND JUST LEAVE THEIR ENGINE RUNNING FOR A REALLY LONG TIME AND SO WE WENT TO EGO SUMMIT LAST YEAR AND COLUMBUS ACADEMY, THEY HAD A PROJECT WHERE THEY MADE SIGNS THEY PUT IT UP IN JUST PARENT PICKUP LOOPS, WHERE IT SAID. DID YOU KNOW THAT IDLING FOR FIVE SECONDS IS MORE HARMFUL THAN TURNING OFF YOUR CAR AND TURNING IT BACK ON. AND THEY ACTUALLY NOTICED THAT PARENTS WERE TURNING OFF THEIR CAR BEFORE THEY PICKED UP THEIR KIDS. WHEN IT WAS NICE ENOUGH WEATHER. AND SO THAT IS OUR IDEA. SO WE WILL CREATE SIGNS. THEY'RE DRAWING OR ONLINE, PRINT THEM OUT. ON YARD SIGNS AND THEN PUT THEM IN IN PARENT PICKUP LOOPS AROUND NOT JUST THE HIGH SCHOOL BUT THE WHOLE SCHOOL PARKING LOTS AND HOPEFULLY THE CHURCH WHERE A LOT OF PEOPLE PARK AT THE HIGH SCHOOL BUT WE DO NOT KNOW YET. LET'S JUST SAY DON'T IDLE. AND THEN IN ADDITION TO THAT, LIKE, UM, AND THIS IS STUFF THAT WE PUT IN. I WOULDN'T NECESSARILY NEED THE GRANT MONEY FOR BUT WE'RE HOPING TO REALLY FOCUS ON EDUCATION FOR THE SCHOOL, AND THIS CAN HELP BECAUSE WE CAN GET LIKE THE STAFF AND THE STUDENTS, ESPECIALLY BUNCH OF PEOPLE THAT ARE NEW TO DRIVING, AND PROBABLY AREN'T AWARE OF THE IMPACT AS MUCH. UM SO WE'RE LIKE THE ENVIRONMENTAL CLUB AND WE'RE HOPING TO GET ON LIKE SCHOOL ANNOUNCEMENTS. IF YOU KNOW WHAT NEST IS, WE HAVE THAT IN SCHOOL, WHERE STUDENTS HAVE TO WATCH VIDEOS. UM MAKING SMALLER POSTERS THAT WE CAN JUST PRINT OUT AND PUT AROUND THE SCHOOL AND BASICALLY JUST RAISE AWARENESS AND, LIKE MULTIPLE ASPECTS, SO THAT WAY PEOPLE DON'T JUST SEE NO IDLING. THEY KNOW WHAT IT ACTUALLY MEANS. SO HOPEFULLY THAT HELPS LIKE LAST IMPACT AND START THAT CONVERSATION AND GET PEOPLE TO [00:50:05] BRING THAT BACK HOME TO THEIR PARENTS. UM AND THAT STUFF AND THEN ALSO A SHOUT OUT. WE'RE STARTING. THIS IS SO UNRELATED, BUT IT'S EXCITING AND IT JUST HAPPENED. BUT WITH WACO WE ARE NOW IN THE PROCESS OF BEING IN THE LIKE STUDENTS CHAMPION RECYCLING PROGRAM THIS WEEK. OH, WE GOT PRINCIPAL KRAMER'S SIGNATURE AS OF THIS MORNING SO THE HIGH SCHOOL WILL BE DOING RECYCLING, HOPEFULLY BY THE END OF THIS SCHOOL YEAR. BUT IN THE SENSE THAT. ACTUALLY LIKE TO ADD , UM, SOMETHING THAT WE'VE ALREADY BEEN PLANNING FOR OUR CLUB MEETINGS WHEN WE ACTUALLY GATHER EVERYONE TOGETHER IS THAT ARE MEMBERS OF THE CLUB WOULD HELP US MAKE THE SIGNS. UM SO THEY WOULD FIND LIKE DESIGNS THEY THOUGHT WERE COOL FOR JUST LIKE DRAWINGS OF SIDES THAT WE COULD TURN INTO ACTUAL THINGS TO PUT UP. UM AND I THINK THIS COULD BE REALLY HELPFUL WITH, UM LIKE EXPANDING KIND OF OUR PURPOSE AS A CLUB, AND ESPECIALLY WITH THIS PROJECT, BECAUSE, AS YOU PROBABLY KNOW, NEW ALBANY HAS MANY, MANY STUDENTS THAT ALL DRIVE TO SCHOOL AND SPREAD THROUGHOUT PARENT PICKUP LOOPS AND, UM, JUST PARKING LOTS IN GENERAL, UM IT'S GOING TO BE A VERY BENEFICIAL PROJECT. UM TWO. TRY AND CHANGE THE WAY THINGS ARE ALREADY GOING. SO. UM SO ADVERSELY KIND OF FEELS LIKE A NO BRAINER THAT LIKE IDLING IS BAD. BUT AS A HIGH SCHOOL STUDENT, I DIDN'T KNOW IT WAS BAD. BEFORE THAT PROJECT, I WOULD ADD ALL THE TIME. I'D SIT IN THAT PARKING LOT. I LEAVE MY CAR ON. I WAS LIKE, OH, I'M IN PARTS LIKE IT'S FINE. LIKE I'VE BEEN IN THE MIND OF A PRETTY FOOLISH HIGH SCHOOLER, SO I THINK THE SIDES WOULD MAKE A BIG DIFFERENCE. AS SOON AS I LEARNED ABOUT IT. IT'S REALLY NOT THAT HARD TO JUST TURN YOUR CAR OFF. THE MUSIC STILL KEEPS PLAYING LIKE IT'S NOT GONNA MAKE THAT BIG OF A DIFFERENCE. AND HONESTLY, I THINK ENOUGH PEOPLE, THEIR SCHOOL JUST WON'T MIND. JUST TURNING THE CAR OFF LIKE I DON'T. I THINK IT WILL MAKE A REALLY BIG IMPACT BECAUSE SO MANY PEOPLE WILL DO IT BECAUSE IT'S NOT HARD. AND BE LIKE IF YOU SEE LIKE A BUNCH OF SIGNS TELLING YOU TO DO SOMETHING, ESPECIALLY IF THEY'RE LIKE MADE BY YOUR FRIENDS OR PEOPLE. YOU KNOW YOU'RE PROBABLY GONNA DO IT OR MAYBE THAT'S JUST ME, BUT I THINK A LOT OF PEOPLE FEEL THE SAME. IT'S THE SMELL TEST. YEAH. THANK YOU. THANK YOU GUYS. THIS IS REALLY EXCITING. IT'S ACTUALLY REALLY ENCOURAGING TO SEE SMART AND INTELLIGENT YOUNG WOMEN BRINGING THESE IDEAS TO THE FOREFRONT, SO THANK YOU. THANK YOU. THE QUESTIONS. I HAVE TWO QUESTIONS, ACTUALLY, UM ONE IS. INTERESTING TO HEAR THAT YOU'RE LIMITING JUST TO THE HIGH SCHOOL OR HAVE YOU THOUGHT ABOUT IT? IT'LL BE ALL OVER THE CAMPUS. YES, YEAH. SO IN THE PLACES WHERE IT'S NOT STUDENTS DRIVING AND YOU TALK ABOUT A STUDENT SURVEY SENT OUT TO EVALUATE STUDENT AWARENESS GUESSING THAT IN THERE, THERE'S A. SOME QUESTIONING ABOUT, YOU KNOW? DID YOU ACTUALLY CHANGE YOUR BEHAVIOR? IS THAT, OR IS IT JUST AN AWARENESS KIND OF THING LIKE PUBLICLY. AND SO MY HOLLOW QUESTIONS THAT GO AHEAD. YEAH THANK YOU. YEAH I WAS JUST GONNA SAY WE WERE PROBABLY GONNA SEND ONE OUT AHEAD OF TIME BEFORE HIS MONEY, THE SCIENCE TO SEE GENERAL AWARENESS. AND THEN AFTER WE PUT THE SIGNS UP, WE COULD SEND OUT A SECOND SURVEY AND I DON'T REALLY THOUGHT ABOUT ASKING ABOUT CHANGING BEHAVIOR. BUT THAT WOULD BE A GOOD THING TO INCLUDE SO WE CAN DEFINITELY DO THAT. FOLLOW UP QUESTION FOR THAT, TOO, IS, UM AND YOU DON'T HELP ANSWER THIS NOW. BUT MAYBE SOMETHING TO NOODLE. HONEST YOU GUYS. AND TALK ABOUT IT LATER. HAVE YOU THOUGHT ABOUT TRYING TO ASK PARENTS OR PEOPLE WHO ARE BRINGING THE YOUNGER STUDENTS TO SCHOOL WHO DON'T DRIVE. THEY'RE AWARE, AND THEY CONSIDER THAT THE HYDROGEN AS WELL. SO I'M SORRY. UM, PART OF LIKE OUR ANNOUNCEMENTS. OR LIKE MOST OF THE TIME, UM, MR SANTONIO, WHO, LIKE RUNS IT ALL. SHE SENDS OUT AN EMAIL TO ALL STUDENTS AND STUDENTS WILL BE GUARANTEED TO GET AN EMAIL AND THEN PARENTS THEY GET SOMETHING ISN'T LIKE ORANGE LEAF, OR LIKE SOMETHING LIKE THAT, SO WE WOULD PLAN TO PUT SOMETHING IN THERE SO THEY WOULD BE AWARE AND IT GETS INTO EVERY GREAT LEVEL PARENTS. USUALLY THE SIGNS OF BEING A PARENT PICKUP ONTO RIGHT? YES. SICK FOR HOURS. YEAH. GET THERE EARLY. GOOD SPOT. OF COURSE. WONDERFUL. YES, I'VE BEEN JUST TO CONSIDER AND THERE'S HOW YOU MIGHT ASSESS AT THE END. UM THE PARENTS, YOU KNOW, KIND OF THE START AND THE END AWARENESS AND IF THERE WAS A KINGDOM WONDERFUL. THANK YOU GUYS. VERY EXCITING. YES, SURE. THERE'S MORE ATTEMPTING SOME MEASURE. IN TROUBLE. BEFORE AFTER OR. THING WAS JUST APPEARED COMPLETE [00:55:04] CAMPAIGN ESSENTIALLY, BUT. IT'S I MEAN, IT WOULD BE INTERESTING. YEAH. OKAY? ANYWAY, THERE WAS A GROUP LOOK AT THE DETAILS. DAD'S WHAT THEY WOULD MANAGE THE DROP OFF AND PICK. IT'S OKAY IF YOU BRAGGED IN THE CLUB PRESIDENT OF THE DADS CLUB HOME. HE WAS THE ONLY WAS THE ONLY DAY THAT IT WASN'T IT WAS IN THE P T BECAUSE I DIDN'T PLAY ENOUGH GOLF. UM AN IDIOT THAT BUT THEY WOULD BE THEY WOULD ALSO MAKE A POINT. SOME OF THEM WOULD MAKE A POINT OF TELLING PEOPLE BECAUSE THERE'S A RULE THAT YOU CAN'T HAVE YOUR CAR ISLAND BECAUSE OF EXHAUSTION. SO I THINK IT'S FANTASTIC TRIBUTE CRAZIEST AND STEPPING IN 22 YEAR DAY ONE BECAUSE WATCHING THE SPORTS MINISTER DISQUALIFIED BACK UM, AND I THINK IT'S RIGHTLY LAST STUDENTS MORE APPEARANCE, BUT MY ASSESSMENT. BUT I MEAN, I WOULD LOVE TO SEE THIS HAVE A LITTLE BIT BIGGER REACH OR LATER INTENT TRYING TO IMPACT. THE CHANGED BY . DISTRICT AWARE OF IT AND TRYING TO BEGIN TO APPROACH AND NOT HAVING POLICY ESTABLISHED AROUND IT. ONLY BECAUSE I FEAR THAT YOU'LL GET THE SAME WAY. ACTUALLY, I GET WHEN I'M NOT DOING SOMETHING. AND SAY, HEY, FROM THE TOURNAMENT CAR OFF OKAY. I HOPE YOU DON'T GET THE FINGER THAT I GET. BUT THAT'S TYPICALLY WHAT HAPPENED. SO I THINK THIS IS GREAT. I WOULDN'T MIND SAYING IT. DIGGING THE HOLE. AND IF YOU WOULD SUGGEST THAT BUSINESS YOU'RE GOING TO GET SOME INFORMATION SOMEPLACE BY BY GOING AFTER THIS FANTASTIC I WOULD CHALLENGE US IN THE PARK . MAYBE THERE'S ANOTHER LEVEL DEPTH TO GET INTO. IF YOU'RE THERE, AND THAT REQUIRES A LARGER BUDGET, AND SO BE IT. NO ONE THOUGHT TO IS. THIS MAY ALREADY BE OCCURRING, BUT THEY MAY BE WORKING FIVE MINUTE NOTES TO THE TRANSPORTATION DEPARTMENT AND SEE IF THE BUSSES ARE ALREADY DOING IT WHICH THEY WOULD SURPRISE HIM THAT THEY'RE NOT. BECAUSE OF THE FUEL SAVINGS, BUT IF THEY ARE NOT IT'S JUST ANOTHER WAY TO TAG ON YOUR WORDS. CHARLES JUST PUSH BACK JUST A SECOND, BECAUSE IN MY MIND I'M THINKING. OF THE TIMELINE ASSOCIATED WITH THIS AND FOR THEM TO START THE PROJECT IN JANUARY. WHEN PEOPLE ARE WHEN THEY IDLE, THEY'RE BLASTING THEIR HEAT. VERSUS IN MAINE. POTENTIALLY THE END WHETHER THEY STOP. YOU LET ME SEAT IN THE SAME WAY. PROBABLY NOT. SO SKEWED. IF YOU WERE TO DO IT AT THE BEGINNING OF THE SCHOOL YEAR LAST YEAR, WE SEE MHM. AND THEN MAYBE YOU CAN EVEN HAVE LIKE A TEMPERATURE. BAD NIGHTS. IT'S CALLED OFFICER. IT'S FINE. DO YOU WANT TO GET MORE TECHNICAL? I PERSONALLY, THERE'S NO SCIENCE BEHIND THIS. I PERSONALLY THINK THAT I'VE BEEN SUFFERING. NOTHING. JUST NOT DO THAT. REGARDLESS FACING HEATED PEOPLE OPENED SOME FUN THEN COMFORT LEVEL. POSTED. YES, THAT IS ONE OF VERY BAD TIME. CERTAINLY. BUT MY CHALLENGES JUST LIKE I IT'S GREAT TO HAVE AN APARTMENT. P S A KIND OF THING ABOUT IT, BUT I LOVE TO SEE SOME SORT OF THINK OF THEM. WELL DATA AND THAT YOU'RE HAVING SOME SORT OF IMPACT. YEAH, ENVIRONMENT BECAUSE. I THINK WE ALL ASSUME THERE IS. DO YOU HAVE A RESPONSE TO? YEAH. UM, TRYING TO ADD SOMETHING ABOUT THAT, UM WEIRD INTEND WITH ALL OF OUR PROJECTS TO CARRY THEM SO AS LONG AS THEY CAN KEEP WORKING AND I'LL STILL BE IN HIGH SCHOOL NEXT YEAR MANAGING THE CLUB. EVERYONE ELSE ON THE BOARD IS GRADUATING EXCEPT FOR, UM SOFIA, BUT, UM I KNOW THAT WE HAVE BIG PLANS TO IMPLEMENT MORE THINGS, ESPECIALLY WITH CONTINUING PROJECTS LIKE FOR OSAMA PROJECT THAT WE DID LAST SPRING, WHERE WE EDUCATED YOUNGER STUDENTS ON THE IMPORTANCE OF SUSTAINABILITY ME AND WE HELPED THEM CREATE RECYCLING BOXES FOR THEIR [01:00:05] CLASSROOM. AND THIS YEAR WE'RE PLANNING TO EXPAND THAT OUT INTO THE HALLWAYS AND HOPEFULLY ACROSS MORE GRADES IN THE PRIMARY SCHOOL. SO LIKE THAT PROJECT, I THINK PAST THIS SCHOOL YEAR WITH FROM THE DATA COLLECTION STANDPOINT, I THINK THAT'S DEFINITELY SOMETHING THAT WE CAN AIM FOR, UM AND OBVIOUSLY WITH TEMPERATURE AND TIMING, DEPENDING ON THE SEASON. THAT COULD DEFINITELY SPEED DATA, BUT, UM IF WE CARRY THIS ON FOR AS LONG AS WE CAN. I THINK THAT WE CAN SEE TO STAND FOR ITSELF. YEAH. ALSO WITH US RECEIVING THE GRAMPUS WAKE UP. I MEAN, PRETTY MUCH EVERY ONE OF OUR MEETINGS WITH US. PHYSICALLY TAKING GOING TO EVERY CLASSROOM AND TAKEN TO THE CYCLING OUT THE VENT. SO THAT BRINGS UP LIKE A TON OF TIME AND LIKE, ALSO LIKE LOTS OF DIFFERENT ACTIVITIES FOR US TO ACTUALLY DO READING, SO WE HAVE ONE. MEASURING LIKE ACTUAL HOW MANY. CEO TO LIKE IT'S NOT OR WHATEVER. NOTHING ENVIRONMENT. BUT YEAH, BUT I DON'T KNOW HOW. ACTUALLY MEASURING HERE. BECAUSE . WHAT PARENT PICKUP AND WHEN PARENT DROP UP HER HAPPENING? THAT'S WHAT WE'RE AT SCHOOL. SO I DON'T KNOW HOW WE COULD. I WONDER IF YOU KNOW IF YOU DID HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO SURVEY AND I MEAN, IF THIS IS ALL HE HAS TO DO IT, RIGHT. YOU NEVER REALLY KNOW FOR SURE. BUT A SIMPLE QUESTION, LIKE APPROXIMATELY HOW MUCH TIME WE SPEND IDLING. HAVE YOU CHANGED YOUR BEHAVIOR? OVERSIMPLIFYING IT. NO, I THINK YOU COULD DO SOMETHING LIKE THAT. AND IF YOU SOMEONE DOES A QUICK COUNT THAT IS OUT THERE. DO ANYTHING, ESTIMATE THE NUMBER OF CARS FOR HOW LONG AND TAKE THE AVERAGE TIME AND HE'D BE EXTRAPOLATED MUCH. CONDITIONS ARE PRODUCED PER CAR. FOR JUST HAS 20 MINUTES. WHATEVER YOU CAN GET SOME BETTER THAT WAY. AND AGAIN, IT'S NOT GOING TO BE THE PERFECT SNAPSHOT THAT WILL ALLOW YOU TO HAVE SOME SORT OF BASED ON I MEAN, THAT'S ISSUED OUT HAVE SEEN BEHAVIOR CHANGE. PEOPLE ATE HOW HOW MUCH BETTER IS THE AIR QUALITY IS FOR STUDENTS. IF YOU THROW AN IDEA OF WHAT OUR KIDS, SO THEM ART STREAMS FOR PARENTS, DEREK DO MORE TO THAT LOOKS SAFE NOW DIPLOMATIC. SO, YEAH, YOU COULD DO SOME SORT OF EXTRAPOLATION JUST BASED ON METHODOLOGY AND TRUTH. YEAH THAT'S THAT IS A PART. AVAILABLE, SO IT'S NOT REALLY EXTRAPOLATING UP. OR SAMPLES. THAT'S GOOD. IT SOUNDS LIKE A GREAT EXCUSE TO GET OUTSIDE. YEAH I MEAN, I GOTTA GO. LOOK AT CAMP PICKUP. GOTTA GO AFTER SCHOOL. YEAH JUST GRAB A COUPLE OF DAYS OF A BENCHMARK AND YOU KNOW, BEFORE YOU ROLL IT OUT. REALLY? ENCOUNTER TOO. I CAN USUALLY AFTERNOON THE BUS LEAVES. COMING COUPLE DAYS. YOU CAN FIGURE IT OUT. I THINK IT'S A GREAT IDEA. I THINK, UM TO ME. THE MOST IMPORTANT PART IS THAT HE'S PUTTING UP SIGNS AND ADVERTISING THAT ESPECIALLY FOR ADULTS. THAT THEY KNOW IT'S COMING FROM YOU ALL VERSUS ME UP. THAT'S GOING TO BE A VIEW OF THE ADMINISTRATOR LIKELY TO LISTEN TO SIGN OF THAT. IT'S A YOU MUST, YOU KNOW, NOT IDLE. UH, I DON'T THINK MR IS GONNA DO THAT. FIRST OF ALL, BECAUSE WE DON'T WANT TO DEAL WITH IT. FILM CALLS EMAILS, BUT SECOND OF ALL, I THINK IT ACTUALLY IS GOING TO BE MORE MEANINGFUL. IF THEY IF PARENTS FEEL LIKE NO, THIS IS COMING FROM STUDENTS HAVE BEEN LEARNING ABOUT THESE THINGS. THEY WANT US TO TAKE CARE OF THEIR FOR THAT. WE'RE NOT GONNA BE HERE TO TAKE CARE OF. SO I GUESS WHAT I'M THINKING IS, IF YOU'RE ADVERTISING THIS OR PUTTING IT FIRES FOR MAYBE EVEN VIDEOS LIKE SOME SORT OF SHORT VIDEO. WITH SOME OF THE YOU TALKING ABOUT THIS? WHY IT'S IMPORTANT. THAT WOULD GO HOME TO PARENTS. BE ABLE TO SPEAK INCLUDED IN LIKE YOU KNOW, THIS WEEK? YOU KNOW HOW MANY NEWSLETTER THAT GOES OUT OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT. UM AND THEN THEY SEE THE SIGNS. YOU KNOW, NEW ALBANY ENVIRONMENTAL CLUB ON IT OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT TO ME, THAT IS GOING TO BE MORE POWERFUL. EFFECTIVE. COMING FROM ADMINISTRATION. AND MAYBE IT'S STEPBROTHERS IF YOU MAKE WITH ME. AT THE Q R. THIRD ON THE SUN. PEOPLE ARE THERE. LET ME EDUCATE THEIR MOTHER AND THE CURRENT BOYD. I LIKE THAT IDEA. SHAPE MHM GUILT ALWAYS OKAY? [01:05:02] IT'S THE PRESIDENT. I THINK THAT'S A FANTASTIC POINT. BECAUSE DOCTORS LAWYERS IS TOLD ME LIKE PARENT BEHAVIOR. ESPECIALLY IN TERMS PICKUP LINES. INSANE SO I THINK IT WOULD BE VERY RECEIVED FROM STUDENTS RATHER THAN POLICY. I HATE. TO SAY ANYTHING NEGATIVE ABOUT THE DALLAS DEATH. BUT I HOPE WOULD BE THAT. YES OKAY. YEAH IT'S LIKE ANNOYING TO THE MONEY. I THINK MY HOPE WOULD BE AND I ALWAYS LOVE A GOOD POLICY TO BUT THAT THE CHANGE COULD HAPPEN. BEHAVIORALLY ORGANICALLY OUT OF DESIRE JUST SHARED UNDERSTANDING RATHER THAN SOMETHING THAT'S OF COURSE AND LEGISLATIVE SO UM, MAYBE A BIT. THIS MIGHT BE A GOOD PERSON. STEP TO KIND OF SEE, YOU KNOW, FIGURE OUT THE BASELINE WHERE PEOPLE AT ARE THEY WILLING TO CHANGE? AND THEN GO FROM THERE AND AS YOU CARRY ON THE WORK AND YOU'LL KNOW GOING IN THE NEXT YEAR. HOW MUCH PROGRESS YOU AND IF IT'S SOMETHING THAT NEEDS TO CONTINUE FOR THE DRAFT. I HAVE A QUESTION? YES, ALRIGHT. IT'S ACTUALLY MY QUESTION, BECAUSE THIS IS THE FIRST CONVERSATION LIKE THIS THAT WE'VE HAD. I'M CURIOUS IF THIS KIND OF GOING AROUND, AND IT'S BEEN HELPING HIS GREAT GUYS FLUSHING THIS OUT OF THE ABSOLUTELY YOU TAKE I THINK THE BIGGEST THING I TOOK FOR IT WAS MORE ABOUT HOW WE WOULD SURVEY THE STUDENTS AND, UM KIND OF SEE WHAT CHANGES ARE BEING MADE, AND IF THEY'RE ACTUALLY IMPROVING UPON THEIR PAST BEHAVIOR, SO I THINK THAT'S DEFINITELY REALLY IDEA. BYE, KIDS. I'LL JUST TALK DOESN'T EVEN WHAT I SAID. YOU DON'T NEED THE MICROPHONE. I KNOW I'M REALLY GOOD AT BEING LOUD. UM BUT WHAT I TOOK FROM IT PERSONALLY IS IT'S REALLY NICE TO HAVE LIKE REASSURANCE THAT OUR PROJECT WILL MAKE A DIFFERENCE AND THAT IT IS A GOOD IDEA BECAUSE I COULDN'T TELL IF IT WAS JUST LIKE JUST IN OUR FEAR. WE'RE LIKE, YEAH, THIS IS GOOD. LET'S DO IT. BUT HAVING LIKE SUPPORT FROM OUTER GROUPS BESIDES, OUR PEERS IS SUPER NICE , AND I LIKED ALL THE NEW IDEAS LIKE ABOUT TAKING QUANTITATIVE DATA RATHER THAN JUST LIKE A SURVEY, LIKE SEEING THE ACTUAL DATA. I JUST THINK IT'S NEAT. THEY ONLY IS THAT YOU? YES IT IS HIGH. I RECOGNIZE YOUR VOICE ANYWHERE TODAY. UM, NO, THAT'S REALLY HELPFUL. THANK YOU. I ASKED THE QUESTION BECAUSE, LIKE I SAID, WE HAVEN'T DONE THIS BEFORE. AND MY HOPE. IS THAT YOUR TAKE AWAY YOUR GUYS' TAKE AWAY IS THAT, UM WE SEE THAT YOU CAN DO IT WORK. THAT YOU CAN TAKE THE IDEAS AND PUSH THEM FORWARD AND MAKE THEM MEANINGFUL AND BEGGED THE COMMUNITIES I THINK ARE CONCENTRATED DISORDER. DO A LOT, YOU KNOW YOU MORE THANK YOU. YEAH SO WHEN WE'RE TALKING ABOUT THERESA, I WAS THINKING ABOUT YOUR BACKYARD. IT'S BEAUTIFUL. I LOVE IT THERE FOR THE REST OF YOUR EYE DOGS IT ? YES AND WE WILL NEVER CUT DOWN OUR TREES. YEAH. WELL JUST TONIGHT, SO I GUESS WHAT I'LL SAY TWO THINGS FIRST TO ALL OF YOU LIKE I LIKE IT WAS VERY EXCITING TO GET YOUR APPLICATIONS LIKE HONESTLY, IT'S . LIKE WE ARE PROUD OF YOU. SO I'LL SAY THAT, UM I. ALL OF US, ESPECIALLY ME WILL BE WORKING WITH YOU. THROUGHOUT THIS PROJECT. UM AND SO. I THINK YOU'RE BEING LIKE, HOW CAN WE SUPPORT YOU? AND HOW? HOW CAN WE LIKE HELP YOU THROUGH THIS? I DON'T KNOW. YOU NEED TO ANSWER THAT. NOW THAT YOU HAVE INITIAL THOUGHTS, IF NOT YOU HAVE MY EMAIL SO UM OKAY, NUMBER, UM, TOUCH. SO NEXT TO THE BOARD. YOU HAVE A VERY SIMPLE. UM, AND THAT WAS THE SHOOT. WE'RE BRETT. TO JUST KNOW IF THEY MAKE MET THE BASIC REQUIREMENTS OF UM THE APPLICATION APPROVED. AND SO. YOU DON'T HAVE TO FILL IT OUT NOW WHILE THEY'RE HERE, UM I DON'T KNOW IF YOU WANT TO [01:10:05] PROVIDE ANY THOUGHTS ON OR OTHER COMMENTS TO THEM, I THINK ABOUT WHETHER OR NOT THEY NEED THIS CRITERIA IN YOUR MIND. UM. WE I THINK WE LEFT THE ROOM TO MOVE THE FORMAL VOTE. TO SPEND THE NIGHT TONIGHT DELIBERATING AND THEN HAVE THE VOTE IN DECEMBER, BUT WE ONLY HAVE TWO PROJECTS. AND I THINK THAT WAS A LITTLE BIT LESS THAN MAYBE WE WERE LIKE PUNCHING, THINKING TIME WISE IN OUR MIND FOR SO, UM, WE CAN EASILY QUOTE ON BOTH OF THESE TONIGHT. OR WE CAN WAIT TILL DECEMBER. THAT IS UP TO YOU. YES AS LONG AS WE'RE GOOD WITH BUILDING NINE THE FIRST APPLICATION. YES AND SO I MEAN, EXACTLY. NO, IT'S ONLY. I DIDN'T KNOW. SO PETE IS ACTUALLY THEIR SPONSOR FOR THE GIRL SCOUT VERSION OF I MEAN, IT'S THE SAME PROJECT, SO I DON'T KNOW IF YOU HAVE ANY CLASS THAT YOU WANT TO PROVIDE REGARDING THE PROJECT OR MAYBE YOUR GENERAL UM THOUGHTS MAKE ME GO THROUGH THE DETAILS BECAUSE IT'S IN THE APPLICATION, BUT HOW YOUR HOW YOU FEEL ABOUT IT. YEAH. WE MET. WEEKS AGO, NOEL. ONE OF THE HOTELS, RIVET AND HER MOM AND SO I THINK IT REALLY ISN'T SOLID IDEA. THEY WERE. WE ACTUALLY HAD OUR PREACHING, DIRECTOR AND STUFF. CONSISTENT PRINCIPLES OF CANDIDATE IN AND. THEIR INITIAL IDEA WAS BIGGER IN SCOPE, AND I THINK THEY WITH SOME SUPPORT ADMINISTRATION FOCUSED AT A LITTLE BIT MORE. I THINK IT'S ACTUALLY REALLY GOOD PROJECT. THEY ENDED UP THAT THEY ARE INTERESTED IN SUPPORTING COMPOSTING AND HELPING EDUCATE ABOUT COMPOSTING. SO YOU KNOW WE HAVE THE INTERMEDIATE COMPASS IN PROGRAM THIS YEAR, SO ONE OF THE PIECES IS THAT THEY WANT TO HELP EDUCATE. THIRD GRADERS WILL BE COMING TO THE ENEMY GOING NEXT YEAR ABOUT COMPOSTING. AND THAT WILL BE THROUGH VIDEO BUT ALSO SUPER FAST FROM WORK WITH THIRD GRADE CLASSES. THEY WANT TO BE ALSO SUPPORTING OUR COMPOSTING PROGRAM. CITY SO THEY WON'T BE COMING TO THE FARMERS MARKETS THEY WANT TO BE GIVING AWAY BUCKETS TRIED BEFORE AND YOU KNOW IT'S ENCOURAGING THEM THAT HAVING SOME GIRL SCOUTS YOU KNOW , TRYING TO GET PEOPLE SIGNED UP FOR COMPOSTING IS PROBABLY BETTER THAN ANALYSTS SITTING AT THE BOOTH. YOU KNOW, JUST WAITING FOR PEOPLE TO COME BY. I JUST FEEL LIKE THIS. THIS IS GOING TO BE A REALLY GOOD AS FAR AS THIS PUBLICITY AND HAVING YOU KNOW STUDENTS WHO ARE REALLY INTERESTED IN THAT TOPIC, SO I THINK IT WAS REALLY CRAZY. I THINK THEY'RE SUPER ORGANIZED, VERY RESPONSIVE. TO BE BACK. YEAH. THANKS BRILLIANT. NO ONE THING I WANTED TO NOTE IS SPECIFICALLY MENTIONED THROUGH THE LIKE REVIEW AND DESIGN OF THE APPLICATION THAT PARENTS SHOULD NOT BE THE ADVISOR. AH SHE IS THE ADVISOR BECAUSE SHE'S THE GIRL SCOUT TROOP LEADER, AND SO OKAY, THAT PRIVATELY. YEAH, I LIKE THE IDEA HOW IT EDUCATES. YOUR SUPPORT FOR WHEN THEY GET OBEDIENT SCHOOL FOR. YEAH YEAH, WE WILL BE EXCITED. MY ONLY QUESTION REALLY IS JUST SORT OF A TECHNICAL ONE, AND THEY'RE WORKING WITH THE THIRD GRADE CLASSROOMS AND SENSING TRYING TO GET THE THIRD GRADE. PARENTS YOU KNOW, TO SIGN UP AND COMPOSTING. IS THERE LIKE A DIFFERENCE BETWEEN SAYS I WILL SEND THEM EDUCATION MATERIALS THAT WILL ENCOURAGE THEM TO FIND OUT THAT THE SIGNING UP IT'S JUST GONNA BE LIKE COMING TO THE FARMERS MARKET. WHICH IS KIND OF GONNA BE THE SAME AS THE OTHER PEOPLE ARE TRYING TO GET TO SIGN UP. IS THAT RIGHT? OR I THINK THEY I MEAN, THEY CONCERNED ABOUT MIND OR THEY DON'T HAVE TO NECESSARILY GO. HOW WELL THEY, YOU KNOW. MIND YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN? LIKE, HOW DO THEY MEASURE? YEAH, WE'VE TALKED ABOUT THAT, AND IT MIGHT AFFECT TOO. I MIGHT HAVE TO LIKE. BUT IN A BOX FOR YOU. DID SO AND SO REFER YOU AND THEY CAN JUST CHECK THIS. YEAH THAT'S LIKE A WEBSITE. THE OTHER WAS, YOU KNOW IF YOU'RE SITTING AT THE FARMERS MARKET YET SO MANY PEOPLE WALK PAST, BUT IF THEY'RE SENDING INFORMATION TO EVERY PARENT IN THE PRIMARY BUILDING IS LIKE 1200. PARENTS. KIDS SO, UH, JUST IN TERMS OF. FOR GETTING INFORMATION OUT THERE. DIGITALLY UM, BEING FASTER AND MORE EFFECTIVELY. YEAH, YOU KNOW, DEFINITELY THAT THAT MAKES THEM OF SENSE TO HAVE AN INDICATOR SO THEY CAN ACTUALLY NOT SURE REPORT BACK TO ME. BUT IT CAN'T BE AND IT STARTED THIS. WELL, IT'S ON THE [01:15:07] MAGNETS. SO IT'S THERE. WE ALSO JUST HAVE A PAPER SIGN UP FOR THEM TO ENTERTAINMENT THAT AWAY AND YEAH, NEITHER IT PLUG IT IN. THE FIRST ONE. YEAH. THERE ARE Q ARCHIVES THAT YOU PLAY ON YOUR PHONE. SPRINKLED. YEAH, YOU'RE RIGHT. AND THAT'S WHERE YOU COULD DO MAYBE A DIFFERENT TO OUR CARRIAGE. VENICE SPECIFIC TO THE PROGRAM. IT'S GREAT, RIGHT? YEAH. ARE THEY GOING TO EDUCATE THIS. FIRST BEFORE THEY SEND STUFF. THAT WAS THEIR IDEA RIGHT SO THAT THE KIDS ARE COMING HOME TALKING ABOUT IT. IT WOULD BE SOMETHING. THAT SAME WEEK, KIRBY IN THE TIME FRAME THAT THE PARENTS WILL BE RECEIVING. SO THEY DON'T HAVE KIND OF THE SAME INFORMATION. KIDS GET ON BOARD WITH IT. SECONDS LATER GETS ON BOARD WITH SOMETHING PEOPLE NAG YOUR PARENTS EXACTLY COMES THROUGH, YOU MIGHT HAVE FIXED IT. YES. PEACE WE'RE PUSHING, RIGHT I WAS SUGGESTING WAS YOU KNOW, KIDS BRINGING IN SNACKS. I FEEL THAT IT'S COME HOME THAT ARE BRINGING SHIP LIKE BAGS. A LOT OF WAYS. MAKING THAT FURTHER INFORMATION WOULD BE KEEP GETTING EXACTLY. CONTAINERS AND LUNCH CONTAINERS THAT CAN WAYS, YOU KNOW. EUROPEAN COUNCIL IS GOING TO GET THROUGH. I THINK THE WONDERFUL TO ADD. I KNOW, THEY SAID CHARITY STRETCH CALLED 100 SECONDS. THAT'S SORT OF TERRIBLE. LET'S ADD HUNDREDS MORE PEOPLE. YOU'LL BE AMAZED. WONDERFUL. YEAH, I TOLD THEM SO FAR BECAUSE $350 PER PEOPLE SIGNED UP. AND SO 100 IS A LOT LIKE AND MAYBE IT'S DOABLE. I JUST I DIDN'T WANT THEM TO. YEAH I WANTED TO, YOU KNOW, I MEAN, WE'VE HAD MAYBE 30 SIGN UP WITHIN THE LAST LIKE LIKE THE BULK OF THOSE WERE THAT FIRST YEAR AND THAT FIRST QUESTION SO WANTED TO MITIGATE THOSE EXPECTATIONS. BUT I MEAN SHE IS THE MOST MOTIVATED. RIGHT NOW, LIKE SHE IS SHE WAS ALREADY THINKING ABOUT WHAT HER GOLD LEVEL CERTIFICATION WILL BE FIRST. GIRL SCOUTS, AND SHE'S LIKE MAYBE TWO GOLD LEVEL PROJECTS. SHE'S EXCITED. SHE'S VERY EXCITED. I MEAN, IT DEFINITELY FITS. NOW IT'S KIND OF TRUE. YOU CAN PUT TOGETHER SEPARATE WHATEVER YOU WANT. YES, THERE. SO LET'S START WITH. AND THEN THERE WAS.

[01:20:03] VERY MUCH WE CAN YOUR LESSON. LILY CAN'T LEAVE YOU GUYS. WE WON'T BE INSULTED IF YOU WANT TO TAKE OFF. UM WE HAVE A FEW OTHER AGENDA ITEMS SO PRETTY GOOD. OH A MINUTE. YEAH OKAY. MAY, I GUESS HAVE TO JACK. COOL ROLAND, SOME UPDATES. THE FIRST BEING THE INVASIVE SPECIES TRADE IN PROGRAM. UM SO I MET WITH FRANKLIN SOIL AND WATER CONSERVATION DISTRICT COUPLE WEEKS AGO. IT WAS RIGHT AFTER LAST MEETING. AND IT SEEMS LIKE THIS WILL BE A REALLY UM GREAT PARTNERSHIPS AND REALLY ALIGNS WITH SOME OF THE THINGS WE'RE ALREADY DOING WITH THEM. UM, AND SO THE WAY THAT THEY WERE THINKING ABOUT THIS WOULD BE TO USE IT AS REBATES. SIMILAR TO THE COMMUNITY BACKYARD PROGRAM IN THAT PEOPLE WOULD BE ABLE TO REMOVE THE INVASIVE SPECIES TAKING PICTURES WE CAN, EITHER THAT OR ACTUALLY, THEIR STAFF COULD POTENTIALLY BET THAT AS WELL. AND THEN COME A. THEY WOULD BE ELIGIBLE TO SUBMIT THOSE RECEIPTS FOR $100 REBATE. AND SO THAT WOULD BE VERY SIMILAR TO HOW WE ARE CURRENTLY CONDUCTING THAT PEOPLE ATTEND THAT COMMUNITY BACKYARDS PROGRAM. UM I THINK I HEARD THE NUMBERS. THERE WERE 10 REBATES USED THIS YEAR IN TOTAL SO FAR 2023 AND SO LIKE THAT KIND OF GIVES A SENSE OF WHERE THAT PROGRAM IS AT. UM ANNUALLY BUT WITH THIS KIND OF LIKE THIS WOULD BE A FIRST. VERSION OF THIS THAT THEY WOULD BE REALLY EXCITED ABOUT IF WE CAN TRY ALL THIS, POTENTIALLY LAUNCHING IT FOR OTHER COMMUNITIES. UM, AND SO THE REBATE COULD BE USED AT ANY LOCAL STORE OR NURSERY AND RESIDENTS COULD PURCHASE WHATEVER YOU NEEDED PLANTS. BY US OR IF THEY'RE CHOOSING, UM AND THEN SUBMIT THE RECEIPT FOR VERIFICATION. AND IT WOULD ALSO WORK AT THE AT THE FRANKLINS WAYLAND WATER TREE SALE. SPEND AGAIN THEY CAN ASSESS WITH PROGRAM MANAGEMENT. TIMELINE WISE, IT WOULD LOOK LIKE RIGHT NOW. WE'RE FINALIZING THE AGREEMENT, AND I CAN JUST BE INCORPORATED IN OUR, UM NORMAL ANNUAL WORKING AGREEMENT WITH FRANKLIN SEVEN WATER. UM AND THEN EARLY NEXT YEAR LAUNCHED THE PROGRAM. WORK WITH THEM TO CREATE SOME PROMOTIONAL MATERIALS. THEY'RE MORE THAN WILLING TO HELP US CREATE THOSE WHAT? WHETHER IT'S A VIDEO OR OTHER CONTENT. MAYBE YOU A FLYER OR A POSTCARD IN THE MAIL. THAT KIND OF THING. THEY ARE. UM FULLY ON BOARD WITH HELPING US ROLL THIS OUT AS MUCH AS THEY CAN POTENTIALLY, LIKE, LEND A HAND TO THIS PROGRAM. UM AND THEN APRIL THAT THE LINES VERY WELL WITH OUR STATE ARBOR DAY. POTENTIALLY PEOPLE COULD GET POINTS IF THEY PULLED OUT THEIR INVASIVE PLANT. SOME KIND OF LIKE PICTURING IN MY MIND ISN'T THE MANDRAKE GROUP AND TRY TO PATTERN LIKE PULLING THEM OUT AND STARTED SQUEALING. UM BUT THEY COULD GET POINTS FOR THAT. AND THEN POTENTIALLY BE ELIGIBLE FOR A PRIZE ON TOP OF GETTING THE REBATE. AND THEN IN MAY AGAIN THEY CAN SUBMIT THEIR RECEIPTS STARTED TO MAKE THAT'S VERY NORMAL. HE THINKS THEY'RE HURT. COMMUNITY BACKYARDS REBATE PROGRAM USING THAT RECEIVED FROM MAY. I DON'T KNOW IF YOU DON'T HAVE ANY THOUGHTS ON THIS. UM IF IT'S MEETING YOUR EXPECTATIONS FOR THIS KIND OF PROGRAM FOR WHAT ELSE WE SHOULD BE SURE TO INCLUDE AS IT AS IT IS FOR ME. UM, THIS IS FANTASTIC. PRODUCTS SAID THAT A COUPLE OF THINGS THAT HAVE BEEN MY MIDNIGHT THOUGHTS UM SINCE THE LAST CONVERSATION AND I CAME UP WITH A CAPTION CAPTURED VISION, MARTIN BUT, UM. I WOULD LOVE YOU BOTH FORMALLY. COACH THE H O A ENDS AND YOU GET ACCEPTANCE OF WHATEVER LIST OF INVASIVE SO WE HAVE IDENTIFIED THE FUTURISM IN IT. ENEMIES. 22 THERE, BEAUTIFICATION OR WHATEVER THE COMMITTEES ARE CALLED, UM UM, PROVIDE A LIST OF THINGS THAT WOULD BE THE BICYCLE TO REPLACE WHERE I JUST SAID THAT THEY'RE [01:25:05] ALL FROM THE SAME PANEL. UM. I DON'T KNOW IF WE GO FURTHER TO THAT POINT, AT LEAST HITTING IN LARGER THE ART CARE COMPANIES THAT WE KNOW EXIST IN WORK, ESPECIALLY ONES THAT NIGHT. PEOPLE IN THE CITY FOR OTHER WORK. TO GET THEIR COMBINATIONS THAT THEY UNDERSTAND THAT THIS IS SOMETHING THAT WE'RE DOING SO BUT THEY COULD BE A SISTER, THEN. I DIDN'T FIND THINGS AND OR MAKE ANY SUGGESTIONS. AND REALIZE THAT BEHAVIOR. UM, I'M CURIOUS BECAUSE I KNOW YOU HAVE USED THEIR REBATE PROGRAM IN THE PAST. HAVE YOU RUN INTO ISSUES, BUT EXPECTS THAT IN YOUR MIND, ACTUALLY, NEVER SEE OVER JAIL RIGHT NOW. JUST GET TO WORK. UM, BUT WE KNOW BECAUSE COUPLE LOVE THINGS WHERE I'VE GONE TO GET REQUEST APPROVAL. PROPERTY LINE, BUT. GIVE US A QUICK REVIEW. I FEEL LIKE WE DISCUSSED THIS LAST TIME. SO I APOLOGIZE FOR ASKING THE SAME QUESTION. SO UH, IS THERE WE DIDN'T DECIDE ON THE CAP FOR LIKE, HOW MANY? LET'S SAY I PULL UP 10. BASIS. DO I GET 10? DATA PLAN. I THINK SO. UM, FREQUENT SOIL AND WATER ENCOURAGED US TO KEEP THAT REBATE AT $100. AND BECAUSE THAT'S MORE THAN WE INITIALLY, LIKE. INITIALLY, WE'RE THINKING OF $40 PLANTS, AND SO MAYBE THEY COULD DO TOO. I THINK UM, LOGISTICALLY ONE PER SEASON. AND IF THIS IS IT'S SO SUCCESSFUL THAT THEY CAN DO IT AGAIN. BUT YOU CAN GET A LOT OF NATIVE PLANTS FOR $100. INTO AND WHERE DO THEY GO TO. UM I THINK THEY JUST TAKE A PICTURE AND SEND IT BY EMAIL OR MALES. BUT LIKE WHERE THEY PURCHASE THE PLANTS ANYWHERE ANYWHERE THAT HASN'T PLANS, AND THAT'S PART OF THE LIKE. NICE FLEXIBILITY OF THIS PROGRAM IS SORT OF WORKING WITH ONE SPECIFIC. I MEAN, THEY COULD GO TO HOME DEPOT AND GET INTO THE PLANET. YEAH, COOL. OKAY SUMMARIZING OUR HOUSEHOLD HAZARDOUS WASTE EVENT. I WOULD SAY IT WAS A SUCCESS. THANK YOU TO STEVE AND LAURA WERE BEING THERE AND HELPING US OUT. UM OVERALL. OVER 200 CARS KIND OF A WAR UP. 3000 CANS OF PAINT. YOU CAN SEE SOME OF THESE IMAGES OF THE AEROSOLS AND PESTICIDES AND THINGS THAT WERE COLLECTED AND ALL OF THEIR BUSINESS THAT THEY USE. PAINT TRACKS, AND THEY WERE RIGHT. I MEAN, YEAH, IT'S LIKE I THINK THEY GET 100. CANS OF PAINT AND EACH OF THOSE LARGE BOXES AND. THAT YOU WERE RIGHT AROUND 30 OF THOSE BOXES. UM THANK YOU ARE TAKE THEY TAKE EVERYTHING TO A LOT HAPPENED THAT THEY INVENTORY AND SO WE'RE EXPECTING THOSE NUMBERS BY THE END OF THE MONTH SOMETIMES, UM, THEY SAID WE SHOULD BE WEALTH IN BUDGET, SO I THINK WILL BE CURIOUS TO SEE WHAT THAT MEANS. YEAH, I THINK. I THINK I THINK IT WAS A SUCCESS FOR YOU. AND THEY ALSO SAID ACTUALLY IN THE FIELD, THEY SAID THIS WAS OH, REALLY WELL DONE FIRST EVENT. THEY'VE SEEN. DIFFERENT. UM, CITIES THAT HAVE HAD. TO CALL FOR A SECOND SEMI TRUCK TO COME OUT BECAUSE THEY HAD TOO MUCH, AND THEN THEY'VE SEEN CITIES WHERE THEY'VE HAD, LIKE FIVE CARS. AND SO IT WAS A REALLY GOOD BALANCE. UM IT WAS A GOOD SETUP, I THINK NEXT YEAR MORE TRAFFIC HONES. AND, UM MORE SIGNAGE JUST DIRECTED THEM FIELD . I THINK WE NEED TO WORK WITH PARTS, MAYBE ON SIGNAGE, SOCCER FIELD FANS. RIGHT GRANDMA DRIVING COOKING FOR THE SOCCER FIELD ORANGES. I THINK THE DIRECTOR OR QUOTE WAS ACTUALLY WE HAVE 200 CARS. AND THEN IF YOU COUNT ALL THE SOCCER MOMS, WE HAVE 2800. I DIDN'T SAY THAT, UM IT'S A PEOPLE'S HOUSES. [01:30:02] ENCOURAGES MORE PEOPLE GARAGE OUT SO. I DON'T KNOW IF YOU ALL HAVE A PREFERENCE FOR MONTHS IF WE SHOULD START THINKING AHEAD. UM I THINK ULTIMATELY, THE SOONER WE CAN GET ON THEIR FOUNDER. BE THE PREFERENCE BIRTHDAY. I WILL SAY IT'S OUT BECAUSE THERE EIGHT YEARS AGO NOW. UNDERSTAND AND SOUTHERN LOGISTICALLY. COULD WE COMBINE THIS WITH THE WAY STRONG? WE COULD DO WITH THAT CAPACITY UP THERE, TOO. SEPARATE AREAS. AS THE WEST WAS IN. THANK YOU. LEAST OF IT. IT COULD BE TRAIL OF WASTE. KEEPING ALL THE WAYS THAT WAY WE WANT TO BE. IT'S GONNA FOR YEARS. THAT WAS GREAT. PAPER SHREDDING IN THERE WILL BE WILL BE DO IDLING COMPUTATIONS. NO NO, I DON'T AND I SAID THIS SHOW, THOUGH, READY TO GO TO I MEAN, THEY WERE PEOPLE SEE ALL THOSE YEAH, READY TO WORK. LET'S THAT. TO ANSWER YOUR QUESTION. THAT'S THE QUESTION IS, WHEN DO THEY HAVE AVAILABLE AND THEN? YEAH TRY TO GET ON THE COUNTER EARLIER. THAT MIGHT BE A POPULAR RIGHT. WHAT YOU THINK. SO LIKE A LITTLE AFTER. YEAH YOUR GARAGE BECAUSE YEAH, GO APOLOGIZE. I SHOULD GO TO WINDS FOUNDER'S DAY. I JUST SAID, I APOLOGIZE. COMMITTEE WAS THAT ON THE LIST, YOU SEE THAT? QUESTION. CHECK. AND BEFORE. IT'S LIKE MADE 20TH LOOKING UP LIKE HE DOESN'T KNOW WHAT I HAVE HERE. SUCH THING TAKEN OFF DIFFERENT EVERY YEAR. THIS PAST YEAR. HAS THE REGAN BEFORE POINT. REMEMBER WHAT IT WAS A LEAP YEAR, BUT THAT'S THAT COULD BE SOMETHING INTERESTING. THAT TIME TOO. YEAH. YEAH, I JUST I AGREE. UNDERSTANDING. YOU TELL HIM OKAY? ALL RIGHT, BUT IT WASN'T WE DON'T KNOW. YET IT'S WILL BE WHEN THEY COULD DO THE FINAL INVENTORY THAT WILL BE DETERMINED TO CLOSE. UM AND YOU KNOW WHAT, PETE? DO THE UPDATE ON THE SUMMIT, AND THEN IT BRAIN HAS ANY OTHER PARTS. YOU CAN ADD THAT, UM YEAH. I REALLY ENJOYED THE SUMMIT OF THE EMERGENCY STAFF AND MASTER AND OTHER THINGS THAT ACTUALLY WENT TO ONE SESSIONS HERE. CHARGES A LOT. YEAH IT WAS REALLY INTERESTING. SO THEY HAD THE SUSTAINABILITY GUYS FROM INTEL. THE MORE INTERESTING SESSIONS. I THOUGHT HE WAS VERY IMPRESSIVE. YEAH IT'S WHATEVER EVENLY ALL THE THINGS HE'S SAYING ARE TRUE ISH. I ASSUME THEY ARE YOU KNOW, THEY REALLY ARE. DOING EVERYTHING THEY CAN TO BE SUSTAINABLE AS THEY CAN BE REALLY PUSHING THE BOUNDARIES OF WHAT IT MEANS TO BE A SINGLE COMPANY AND YOU KNOW , HE WAS TALKING ABOUT HOW THEY SORT OF INVENTED OR HAD THE LEAD CERTIFICATION. INVENTED FOR CORPORATIONS BECAUSE THAT'S REALLY HADN'T EXISTED BEFORE. THEY KIND OF REQUESTED. ONE FOR THEIR BUILDINGS. YEAH SO I'M STILL BEING NO. HAVE SOMEBODY COULD COME AND TALK TO US AT SOME POINT, BUT YOU KNOW, THERE IS ONE THING THAT LIKE NEIGHBORS AND THOSE WHO KNOW I'M ON THE SUSTAINABILITY BOARD. ASK ABOUT ITS INTELLIGENCE. YOU KNOW, WHAT'S THAT GONNA BE LIKE? AND WHAT'S THE IMPACT AND BE SO HEARING HIM? I THOUGHT IT WAS REALLY RISK INFORMATIVE BUT ALSO REALLY COOL JUST BEING FROM YOU ALL DAY. AND THEN THE GUY FROM THE NEW YORK PARTS OF THOSE IMPRESSIVE I FORGET HIS NAME. YEAH HE TALKED TO ME WAS THE HEAD OF ALL PARTS OF NEW YORK AND IT WAS MORE OF AN INSPIRATIONAL STORY ABOUT WHAT CAN BE DONE WITH PUBLIC SPACES AND WHAT YOU KNOW, HE WAS KIND OF RE ENVISIONING WHAT IT MEANS TO HAVE A PARK. YOU KNOW, NEW YORK CITY OBVIOUSLY IS VERY DIFFERENT IN THIS COMMUNITY. BUT TAKING OUT FENCES AND GETTING RID OF. THE PARTS THAT WERE BASICALLY LIKE PARKING LOTS, AND HE SHOWED HIS PHOTOGRAPHS BEFORE AND AFTER WHAT THEY'VE DONE WITH THEY REALLY CREATED THAT INTO THE COMMUNITY. TRYING TO INCLUDE ALL SORTS OF SPAIN BILL, THE PICTURES AND TREES AND THINGS [01:35:01] LIKE THAT. SO I WAS REALLY INTERESTING. AND THEN, UH, I WENT TO ONE THAT WAS MORE DEMOCRATS ROOTS. EFFORTS THROUGHOUT THE CITY. SO THERE WAS A PERSON WHO IS RUNNING THIS REALLY SMALL NONPROFITS. WHERE THEY'RE TRYING TO HELP. CONSUMERS THAT WANT TO SWITCH TO MAYBE YOU KNOW, YOU'VE GOT YOUR IT'S TIME TO GET A NEW FURNACE. SO INSTEAD OF JUST GETTING YOUR GAS FURNACE SWITCHING TO IT'S A GIRL HE PUMPED AND GOING THROUGH ALL THE ECONOMICS OF THAT AND GOING THROUGH ALL THE PAPERWORK AND MAKING DECISIONS. THAT WAS, YOU KNOW, IT JUST IS NOT REALLY PLACE TO GO THAT THEY CAN HELP YOU WITH THAT SORT OF THING. SO THAT WAS MUCH SMALLER END OF WHAT'S OUT THERE, BUDDY. YEAH WHEN YOU GO TO SOMETHING THAT YOU JUST GET A LOT OF REALLY COOL IDEAS OF WHAT'S GOING ON IN THE COMMUNITY. BECAUSE PEOPLE THERE AND THEN WITH THIS KIND OF SPARK IDEAS. YEAH I GUESS TO THAT SPECIFIC BREAKOUT SESSIONS ORGANIZED THAT CAME FROM THE SAME GROUP WHERE SARAH GALLAGHER ACTUALLY WAS ONE OF THE SPEAKERS. STRIPPER WHO DAYTIME JOB, WHICH IS FRIENDS OF LOWER OR WATERSHED. CONSIDER THEIR WRITERS. PLEASURE. AND ALL THREE OF THEM ARE ON THEIR OWN BOARD. SO SHE CAME FROM UPPER ARLINGTON. AND SHE WORKS WITH SOMEONE FROM BRANDY HERE. HEIGHTS, AND THEY HAVE THIS AND CALLED ECHO, WHICH IS THAT MUCH BY CENTRAL OHIO. TALKING ABOUT DIFFERENT INCENTIVE PROGRAM. THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT. KIND OF STACKED LIKE PLAN OUT A WAY TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF ALL THE INTELLECTUAL FIGHTER HOME. TO BE SAFE. DECREASE. PASS GAS EMISSIONS, SO THAT'S MEAN THAT WE COULD EASILY HAVE UM, SPEAK. THE LAST ONE WAS SUPPORTS HIM. THE TAX SLEEP. WELL, SHE HAS, UM RISKS. UH, OPERATION. INCLUDING PLACE WHICH IS FASHION IS EXTREME. AND SHE. AGAIN WE COULD HAVE COME OUT HERE TO BUT ALSO, WE COULD GO TO THOSE MEETINGS. PARTICIPATE IN THOSE THINGS THAT SO IT'S NOT JUST UNDER THAT HISTORY IS GREAT. BE HERE AROUND. REPORTING AGENCIES FORWARD SO. YEAH SO ONE OF THE THINGS THAT FEEDBACK OFFERED THIS WAY IT WAS BY FAR OUR BEST EVENT. EVER WHEN WE GET CLOSE TO 650 PEOPLE ATTEND AND I THINK, YOU KNOW TO SO. MORE ATTENDEES. I MEAN, THAT'S IT INTO INTEL SPEAKERS LIKE PIZZA. FANTASTIC. GIVEN LARGER THE SIZE THAT THE BIGGER DRUNK. EVERYONE. TO, UH. BE A PART OF IT, SO I'M GLAD YOU WERE ABLE TO COME IN HERE CHATTING A LITTLE BIT EARLY BREAK OUT SESSIONS. IT WAS VERY WEIRD. WELL DONE. IT'S LIKE ONE OF MY FAVORITE THINGS TO ATTEND EVERY YEAR. I WAS CURIOUS. I WAS LIKE, DOES THIS MEAN MULTIDAY EVENT? I WAS AT A CONFERENCE TODAY WHERE. NICK OFFICE. POTENTIALLY ARTICULATIONS COMING. UM THAT RESIDENTIAL GROUP IS THAT SOMETHING? EVERYONE NEEDS TO SIGN UP FOR A NEWSLETTER OR SEVEN. YEAH SO, YEAH, WE'RE GONNA TRY TO ORGANIZE WHERE IT'S SARAH. IN WORDS. IS THE FIRST TO HOST ONE AWAY FROM NORTH SEA WHERE WE COULD STILL HAVE ONE. GOOD IDEAS TO HOPEFULLY HAVE IN MIND. PEOPLE'S HOME TURF OF NGOS I SHOWCASE LIKE HILLIER. STARTED FROM THE DENSITY FIRE. BACK THIS WAY. CODE GRANTS 57. SO, YEAH, THERE'S DIFFERENT THINGS THAT WE FOR UPON THAT'S GOOD. ALRIGHT WAS BUST BUSINESS SIDE UM, IS JUST FOLLOWING UP ON WORKING GROUP DISCUSSION. HMM. WE WE DID GO BACK AFTER LAST MEETING AND MENTIONED THE IDEAS THAT CAME UP TO OUR CITY ATTORNEY. HIS RECOMMENDATION BASED ON WHAT WE HAVE TO GET OUT OF IT AND. YES, FITTING WITHIN THE CONFINES OF WHAT WE'RE ABLE TO DO IS RECOMMENDING. DO YOU MEAN WORKING GROUPS OR, UM, AND OR WORKING SESSIONS LIKE THIS. LISTEN VERY SIMILAR TO A NORMAL MEETING, AND I DON'T KNOW HOW. I MEAN THAT'S ANOTHER POINT. QUESTION I HAVE. I GUESS IT'S HELPING ME TURN THIS FACILITATE [01:40:02] THIS AND TOMORROW WILL DIALOGUE. UM WITH WORKING GROUPS AGAIN. WESTERN THREE YEARS LESS MEMBERS, SO THERE'S NO FORUM. UM AND THEN THOSE WORKING GROUPS WOULD NEED TO BE ESTABLISHED WITH THE SPECIFIC PURPOSE AND TIME LONDON MIND. UM AND SO, FOR INSTANCE, IT DOESN'T MEAN IT CAN'T BE RENEWED AFTER THAT TIMELINE RUNS OUT. IT'S JUST THINKING. IF WE WANT TO CREATE A SCOOP. I GUESS. WASTE REDUCTION AS A BROAD CATEGORY. WHAT'S THAT SPECIFIC PURPOSE FOR THAT GROUP AND UM, HOW LONG WILL THEY MEET IS IT WILL SAY SIX MONTHS. AND THEN LOOK AT IT AT THAT POINT AND SEE IF IT'S STILL USEFUL. HOW OFTEN WILL THEY MEET, AND THEN? MAKING SURE THAT THERE'S SOMEONE THAT'S APPOINTED TO REPORT BACK THE OUTCOME OF THAT MEETING. THREE. SUSTAINABILITY BOARD MEETING. YEAH. AND YOU KNOW? TIMELINE WISE, YOU MADE A GOOD POINT LIKE YOU CAN BEAT AT THE END OF THE DAY. JUST NOT THROUGH THE WORKDAY. THAT'S COMPLETELY FINE. SO I GUESS. AND THIS DOESN'T HAVE TO BE. SOMETHING THAT YOU TELL ME HOW MAYBE I SENT OUT AN EMAIL WHEN YOU TELL ME WS INTERESTED IN ALL IN A WORKING GROUP AND PARTICIPATING IN THAT WAY. IT CAN INCLUDE RESIDENTS THAT YOU WANT TO BRING IN. UM SO THEN MY NEXT QUESTION IS. HOW DO YOU WANT TO AND WE'VE HAD A FEW YOU KNOW, EAGER RESIDENTS COME AND UM, SPEAK TO YOU ALL AND WE CAN CERTAINLY REACH OUT TO THEM DIRECTLY. BUT IF THERE'S OTHER PEOPLE THAT YOU HAVE IN MIND TO JOIN THIS KIND OF WORKING THROUGH UM YOU DON'T HAVE TO REVIEWS ER. DESIRES AND EXPECTATIONS FOR THAT, UM AND THEN HAVE A POINT THEM TO THE WORKING GROUP. SO I DON'T WE'VE HEARD ONE FOR SURE ABOUT WASTE REDUCTION. I DON'T KNOW IF YOU WANT THAT TO BE MORE SPECIFIC TO LIKE HAVING A GROUP SPECIFIC TO COMPOSTING AND WORKING WITH BUSINESSES. UM. YES, THAT'S ONE QUESTION. JOURNALIST QUESTIONS ALTERNATE OVER TO HAVING THE CONVERSATION. THE CHALLENGE WAS, WHAT DO YOU GUYS WANT TO DO? AND I THINK IF I THREW THAT OUT SOMEBODY ELSE DO THAT OUT. JUST SAY HERE'S THE UMBRELLA DEAL WITH SPECIFICALLY AND THEN I THINK THAT THEY PROGRAM OF ENGAGING COMMERCIAL. MY POST WAS SPECIFIC. BUT THAT ALSO FELL UNDER THE GUISE OUT. WORKING ON THE BALCONY PROGRAM. RECOGNITION PROGRAM. THAT MAY BE PART OF THAT, SO I DON'T UNTIL WE FIGURE OUT WHO WOULD LIKE TO DO IT AND THEN VERY SPECIFICS. SHIFT BECOMES YEAH, I THINK I WOULD ADD. THAT PER BASICALLY JUST TO SAY IT SEEMS TO ME THAT THE WORKING GROUP WOULD BE SOMETHING TO THE EFFECT OF EXPERIENCE. YOU TOO. AND THE TASK OF THE WORKING GROUP ON THE BEACH. THAT ABOUT WHAT. MAYBE EITHER WAY IS ONLY THIS. SUSTAINED. FOR MAYBE IT'S NOT. MAYBE THERE'LL BE THIS. WE ALSO HAVE TALKED ABOUT RACE TO EXTEND IT. IT SEEMS THAT THE FIRST TASK OF THE GROUP OF THE EXECUTIVE. WHAT WHAT IS IT AND THEN NARROW IT DOWN. THIS IS HOW IF YOU WERE AROUND IT YEAH, I LIKE THAT. LIKE THAT? YEAH. IT'S ALMOST LIKE YOUR FOCUS. TO COME UP WITH THE PLANET. DISPENSE WITH IN THE FACE. YEAH, SOME OF THIS GROUP BEFORE THEY ACTUALLY WORKED OUT. WELL, THE OTHER THING I WAS GOING TO SAY IS IF WE'RE GOING TO OPEN IT UP. THE PROJECT COMMUNITIES THAT PARTICIPATED OUT OF THE CURE IT JUST LIKE THE COMMUNITY NEWSLETTERS, BUT I THINK MANY OF US LEARNED ABOUT THIS OPPORTUNITY. SOMETHING IN THERE LIKE. UM CRITICISM. SORRY. I WANTED TO ADD I THINK ORIGINALLY , WHEN WE STARTED TALKING ABOUT WORKING GROUPS THE CAMPUS AND WAS DEFINITELY OUR NUMBER ONE I WAS REALLY IMPRESSED WITH SAM ALEX PRESENTATION WAS IT TWO MONTHS AGO THREE MONTHS AGO. ABOUT RECYCLING. CAN'T SO. YOU KNOW EACH HE'S ONE THAT I THINKING WELL, INCLUDE PEOPLE. IN WORKING GROUPS. YOU MIGHT BE SOMETHING LIKE, BUT I GUESS MY QUESTION IS, IS THAT SEPARATE. CONCEPTS DO YOU KNOW HE WAS TALKING ABOUT MOSTLY ABOUT [01:45:02] RECYCLING? IN PUBLIC SPACES AND PARKS AND ROSARY IN PLACES LIKE THAT. I'VE SEEN THAT. YOU MENTIONED. ON LIKE, YOU KNOW, ALL THE DISCUSSION BOARD BECAUSE LIKE THAT QUITE A BIT RECENTLY. SO I GUESS ONE WAY YOU COULD HANDLE THAT WOULD BE TOO YOU KNOW, MAKE THE GROUP ABOUT TWICE PRODUCTION. WE'RE STARTING TO COMPASS AND MILKY THEIR GOAL OF MOVING INTO BROADER THINGS I COULD CYCLING OR HAVING TWO DIFFERENT GROUPS. IF WE FEEL LIKE YOU HAVE A PEOPLE POWER TO DO THAT. YEAH, I THINK MY INTERPRETATION. HAVE A DISCUSSION WITH HIM WASN'T THIS IS ABOUT BREAKING INTO. SMALLER GROUPS TO BE ABLE TO HIT A COUPLE OF DIFFERENT THINGS MORE. PURPOSE SO IF IT'S IF IT IS PUBLIC SPACE, COMPOSTING EXCITEMENT, AND THAT WOULD BE AN IDEA. FIVE COMMUNITY EXCELLENCE RECOGNITION PROGRAM. THAT WOULD BE DIFFERENT IDEA THAT'S ABOUT SPECIFICALLY COMMERCIAL COMPOSTING. PROJECT STARTING THAT'S THE SPEAKER. UM. THAT PEOPLE WOULD SAY YES, I'D LIKE TO WORK ON THAT. SPECIFICALLY, I'M NOT SUGGESTING IT DIDN'T MATTER. THROWING HOPE LIKE TWO OR THREE IDEAS OR. BUT YOU KNOW, WE COULD ALSO BE ABLE TO HAVE DONE PREVIOUSLY AND SOME THINGS JUST SEND YOU HERE'S THREE THINGS THAT I SPECIFICALLY WOULD LIKE TO WORK ON AND PUT THAT TOGETHER. AT THE TOP OF IT LIKE YOU DID FOR THAT. 20 FOR NEXT YEAR. I THINK. YEP TWO POINTS ALL DIFFERENCE AND HAVE AN EMAIL. GAUGING LIKE. VERY OKAY IF YOU DON'T HAVE TIME TO DO A SECOND MEETING EVERY MONTH. UM AND SO I DON'T THINK THERE'S AN EXPECTATION THAT ALL OF YOU HAVE TO DO IT WITH LIKE A MEETING EVERY MONTH. UM SO FIRST IF YOU'RE AVAILABLE. UM THE SECOND BEING LIKE, WHAT IS YOUR AVAILABILITY BECAUSE THAT MIGHT BE A CONFLICT DEAL AND MAYBE I WILL NEED TO BE PRESENT AT EACH OF THOSE. WE CAN INTERCEPT THEM VERY WELL. SO WE'LL HAVE TO WORK THROUGH THAT AVAILABILITY AND THEN BUT THOSE GROUPS WILL BE SO THEN THE AVAILABILITY I THINK WILL DICTATE FROM ANY OF THOSE GROUPS. WE COULD HAVE. SO MAYBE I CAN SEND OUT AN EMAIL AND SCARED. IF YOU HAVE. IF YOU HAVE THE TIME TO HAVE ANOTHER MEETING EVERY MONTH AND THEN WHICH YOUR WHAT YOUR PRIORITIES WOULD BE FOR THOSE. WHAT WE WANT TO ESTABLISH THE LEAST BAILEY'S, TOO. FOR MEMBERS THAT LIST OF THE MARKET. SIMPLE. IT'S. I'LL GET IN FRONT OF MAKE SURE THAT WE DO THINGS THAT WE ALL OF US CAN AGREE ON THAT. SO IT'S NOT LIKE THERE'S YOUR PROJECT IS MY PROJECT AND THE THING I DON'T THINK THAT SPOKE WITH ANYBODY'S EXPECTING TO HAVE HAPPENED. ALSO THAT YOU'RE NOT. SEVEN YEARS, BUT IT'S I DON'T ADDRESS THIS. IF YOU WANT TO SAY THAT SUCH A GREAT BRING IT HAS TO BE AT LEAST TWO MAYBE WE WAIT AND SEE HOW THEY ALEXANDER. YEAH BUT THESE SUBCOMMITTEE MEETING TO BE PROBABLY NO. AND THAT'S WHY WHY WE CAN'T RECORD THEM RIGHT? SO IN THEORY, THEY HEARD YOU KNOW THEY COULD BE VIRTUAL. THEY COULD BE TOXIC STARBUCKS THERE. YEAH. I'M JUST THINKING THAT I DIDN'T WANT TO HAVE TO LIKE, YEAH, LET'S TRY AND GET SOME LITTLE BIT OF FOCUS. FOR EXAMPLE, THE MOVIE. NO I KNOW LUCY GOOSEY, THEN. WHAT HAPPENED? BUT FROM LIKE THE MORE OF YOU THE BETTER, I THINK IN THAT KIND OF HAPPENING. YEAH. SO UM, WITH THAT, ALSO, I DID WANT TO POST THE QUESTION ARE DECEMBER AGENDA WAS TO VOTE ON THESE APPLICATIONS, AND WE DID THAT TODAY. SO UM, IF YOU HAVE AGENDA ITEMS, SEND THEM MY WAY, IF NOTHING. COMES IN. TO OUR HOLIDAY BREAK. SO I'LL JUST. WE WOULDN'T BE DISCUSSING WHAT PEOPLE INTO IT IN TERMS OF THE KEEP THAT. EMAIL OR WE CAN MEET TOMORROW. THAT'S COMPLETELY FUN. CANELO TO BRING OKAY? IT'S BEEN A LONG MONTH. RIGHT? SO THAT'S [01:50:02] WHAT I HAVE, UM THAT WHAT YOU THINK, OKAY? FOUR MEMBERS HAVE ANY COLORS REALLY, HONESTLY, LIKE YOU JUST PRESS EVENT? THINK QUESTION THAT I JUST DIDN'T JUMP BACK IN. OUT OF YOU. REMEMBER, UM WE'RE TRACKING COMPOSTING LEVELS. I'M GONNA IT'S A GREAT OFFENSE. AWESOME. DIVERTING WASTE OUT OF THE RACE STREAM. GETTING MORE CAN WE GET THAT THE AIRLINE OF WHAT'S GOING WASTE PICK UP THOSE FROM MONKEY. YOU CAN SEE, WE'RE ACTUALLY IMPACTING. YES WE DID. I BELIEVE THEIR QUARTERLY REPORTS FROM ROCKY. JUST ALL THE GREEN DIVERGENT LINES SO WE CAN SAY YES, WE ARE AGREED THESE THINGS. BASED ON THE FIRST CONTEST, THEN, SURE. UM, AND THAT, TOO. THE DASHBOARD. DO WHAT. MY JAMES. INTEREST ON STUFF WAS. ASKING IF THERE'S INTEREST FROM THE SCHOOLS AND HAVING THE SCHOOL DATA SOMEHOW. ADDED TO OUR DASHBOARD. EVEN NOT OR GREETING A SIMILAR LIKE IT'S EASY TO DUPLICATE THAT. WE WOULD JUST NEED ACCESS TO THAT SPREADSHEET THAT THEY CREATE FOR YOU. AND SO IF YOU DO HAVE THAT INTEREST AND YOU WANT TO TRACK THAT. YEAH I JUST HAVE TO SEND YOU THERE. MAKE AND THEN YOU COULD. YEAH I KNOW. HE DOES THE DATA SIDE OF THINGS ABOUT YOURSELF THAT HAPPENED, YOU KNOW? OH, GOOD JOB. OH, NO, I'M JUST PLAYING MY, UM ALL RIGHT, SO I DON'T THERE'S NOT A WHOLE LOT TO DO WITH US. NOW. I HAD COFFEE WITH CRAIG MORE. ACTUALLY EARLIER THIS WEEK. SO HE'S THE PRESIDENT OF THE FOUNDATION. DOES A LOT OF GREAT WORK. ONE OF THE PILLARS OF THE FOUNDATION IS SUSTAINABILITY. EXEMPLIFIED THAT . THEY DON'T REALLY IN THEIR OPINIONS. DO QUITE ENOUGH. I THINK WE'VE MENTIONED IT BEFORE THAT THEY WE HAVE A PROJECT. TO KIND OF BE PROACTIVE. THEY'VE ENGAGED WITH CONSULTING PROBABLY SOUND. THEY STARTED. INTERVIEWING SOME FOLKS. I THINK LATER THE NEXT MONTH, THEY'RE POINTING ALL THE BEAST INABILITY. ADVISORS FOR ALL DONE BIG. WE HAVE PART YOU CAN TELL. POLICE PART. GETTING THAT BODY IN A ROOM. UM WE'VE BEEN INVITED. YOURSELF, ADRIAN, HER BOAT. UM, TO PARTICIPATE. SO THEY'RE BASICALLY JOIN. YEAH. KIND OF SNAPSHOT. OF COURSE, THE CURRENT PRACTICES ARE NEW ALBANY. BUT JUST ACTIONS THAT WE CAN TAKE. BOTH FROM BUSINESS PARKS. THE IMPORTANT NAME FROM THE SO IT'S ACTUALLY REALLY COOL. THE REASON I WON'T EVEN GET TO THE HEADS UP ON THAT. THEIR BABY AND ASK AT SOME POINT, THERE'S NO COMMITMENT. I THINK FOR ME, MAYBE IMPORTANT $1000 FEET. SO IF THE CITY WANTED TO HELP OUT YEAH. AND I HAVE SOME LEFT. THAT'S SOMETHING WE CAN GET THROUGH. THAT'S ACTUALLY THE MINOR PART, BUT I THINK IT'S REALLY EXCITING. THEY'RE KIND OF NO, IT'LL KIND OF DO SOMETHING. I THINK THAT. WANTING TO DO BUT REALLY BEEN REPRESENTED ON HOW TO GET 30,000 . SNAPSHOT OF THE COMMUNITY. KIND OF GIVE US SOME ACTUAL PLANS. SO UM KEEP AN EYE OUT FOR THAT. PLUS IT DOES THAT. WHAT ELSE? WELL THEY LIKE TO MOVE TO DRINKING MEETING AT PETE 26 2ND. HOLD FAVOR. * This transcript was compiled from uncorrected Closed Captioning.
