001[Music] all right good evening everyone um I have 6:30 before we uh once we get everyone where we need them one thing I would like to do we're going to go ahead and open up our budget work session for Monday March 10th um I would like to go go through I know um I will not be able to make the Wednesday work session um and I just want to go through and just if everyone's going to miss um councilwoman Tomkins I know you're you're you will miss starting Wednesday right Wednesday okay um I'll miss Wednesday is there anybody else that's going to be missing any work sessions just as far as we know as of okay just want to make sure we're going to have five people here um all right all right so tonight
002we will uh start the series of meetings with the library department does that make sense Library Department that sounded weird didn't it not technically Department the library yeah um Jennifer hi nice to see you congratulations and welcome right into the fire for her um I guess I'm going with a bu that's pretty for those of you yeah for those of you that uh we're in section 12 page uh3 for the library budget and I'll turn it over I imagine the town manager might have a couple things to say yes before we open up for questions yes thank you Mr chairman um pleasure to have uh Jennifer here with us she replaces uh Trish and um her first day was today and we're throwing her right in the fire with a library budget um but no
003actually it's just for me to present um and um for um for Jennifer just to experience uh the process so it'll be you know great for her to to see how it goes through um and I'm sure she's uh probably on overload at the moment in terms of processing everything she has uh seen today and one that she's met um but it's great that she's here to be able to witness the the process so I'll kind of walk you through and I think you know the council's you know General uh theme of of the library is that like me U it's a great um great department and the public library is a great asset for the community and uh very well-run and and managed and I think it's a it's a it's a certainly a
004plus for the community so I don't I don't know that there's anything um out of the ordinary things that you have seen before and I'll just kind of walk through that and and between myself Andy and and Rob we'll be able to answer any questions there may be some last minute uh changes that Jennifer might be able to talk to or speak to and we did through the interview process talk a lot about um the Strategic plan and implementing the Strategic plan so you may want you know might have a question or two about that that she might be able to speak to U but I also um just recently had a couple of ideas that I've got to pass along to her in terms of uh how we can um maximize our opportunity with
005that space that is coming that so that's one of those budget items that that'll be in there we'll talk about so without uh further delay we can jump into uh uh code 520 uh for the for the library uh which at the Top Line uh in uh public uh I mean full-time and part-time salaries we've uh calculated the uh 3% in there but we have some uh adjustments uh as well um with some of the um obviously uh the assistant left and the uh director left we've uh since filled those two positions so we got some shaking out uh there and um other than that we're looking at an overall uh 6.6 uh 6.67% increase or a $ 53,6 67 increase uh as requested at this point uh well I should say um as um
006proposed from my perspective uh which is lower than what they had um proposed at 8888285368 58 648 so um be have to to to walk through um the uh issues there uh but they're outside of the top line which is uh the 32,000 it's the 16,000 um in terms of increase in the electricity line at 510 uh those are the two major drivers uh for this um in terms of the library budget Mr chairman yes go ahead this uh uh transfer in and out interfund transfer in general fund does that have to be done before the approval of the budget the one that's highlighted there on the opposite page on the revenue P I don't think it has to happen before I me right that's just the town contribution to that Revenue side of the
007budget right that's the town's contribution for Department 840 which um obviously covers multiple budgets so we can either do the individual line items as we do the individual budgets or you can do the department 840 at a you know at the end okay it's up to you thank you all right any other questions or comments there there's a lot going on um and obviously with the with the with the plan and part of what's driving the salary is a is a halftime uh position for a full-time Library uh uh in terms of a Teenage uh position it's part of the um strategic plan and and maker spaces as well so that that's what's that's what's driving that so technically we're we're adding a half a half position full-time position but added half year and they
008have other um yeah I was going to say the board wanted it fulltime but the buildout is not going to be complete you know right away so so during our deliberations um tomandre thought you know maybe half year you know the build out will be done maybe you know if it is then you can start looking for a halfe position vers you know and uh get it on board full-time the following right fcal year so fund half of it this correct next fiscal year and then correct obviously finish it the year after okay and just I have a quick question regarding um the fund balance I know a number of years ago we were concerned with how much fun balance we were using from the library fund um and just for let me throw an
009example so let's say their budget comes in $10,000 less than what we budgeted you know and and they need $10,000 less in revenue does if they're using their own fund balance and we're making our contribution would would one or the other contribute $10,000 less or is it kind of once you do your fourth quarter transfers it just all kind of works out does that make sense yes um so the sorry um the the transfering that the general fund does that um you know we're the highlighted number that we just referenced yes that number will stay static based on the budget that you pass okay so where the library fund um usually has gains or losses with the ulate income and gain gains or losses uh for the year they've had very good uh results the
010last few years obviously the Market's been been pretty good um so it you know our piece will our the town's general fund contribution will stay the same okay regardless of how the year turns out and if um you know so that'll keep the operational side of the budget you know in line yep okay it's it's the the non-operational side that the endowments sort of you you know feed into and build into where um where the changes could be but we keep ours flat you know the townside flat and static um and and you know if if operationally something were to be budgeted I.E a full year position yep that would cause some sort of increase in the town's contribution because it may or may not be able to be made up in the endom revenues
011do we know what the library fund balance is at wow I knew you were going to ask me I did not bring it tonight I will bring it no that and that's fine and well honestly it's on your financial dashboard every month it is you are correct I was just testing you oh okay well I know I but no I will um I will bring print outs tomorrow for all the separate fund fund balances and I just totally space today and did and just and again this is something that goes back like five or eight years ago that where we were concerned how much fund balance we were using and concerned we were going to you know deplete it to a point I I could say off the top of my head we're in good
012shape with all the funds right now and it's primarily because the Market's done well for the indominus uh with with regards to this fund anyway okay um I will add to I know as the Le Zone I do go to most of the U Board of Trustees meeting and you know they they have very thorough reviews of of their investment they had one recently and that I sat in on to so it was very informative and uh so far so good yeah with that yeah yeah which is why I believe the library board opted to use the indas to do the buildout for the um teen teen uh area which um you know is not coming from the town contribution it'll come from the endowments because they're doing well okay all right any other questions
013comments if not does uh anyone care to make a motion Mr chairman yes Council motion to approve Department 520 in the amount of $858,000 opposed motion carries thank you very much I don't Jennifer you're welcome to stay and but if you have other more important things to do we understand but thank you for being here tonight um and good luck all right um next on our um we're moving to John bossi thank you and I found out from John this is his what 35th year not that we're counting but all right and we're in section five page 10 so zoning board appeal I'll probably just go through this one real quick um I don't know not much to say zero zero that's it so this this this department was funded solely for the um recording
014secretary that we have moved out of the individual budgets into one General line item so we don't really even need this budget like is this something maybe next year this page isn't even in here that is correct the only reason it's there is because there's still an actual expended amount in 24 in the First Column of the yep requirement for the budget book okay do we need to make a motion I would make a motion Mr chair yes like to make a motion for uh yeah zoning board of appeals section 112 Department 112 the amount of zero second Motion in a second I'm just going to ask for a vote all those in favor I any opposed motion carries um we'll move now to Technical Services Administration that's in section 7 page all right and
015it looks like pretty much salary increases uh the reason for the uh increase in the total budget anything outside of that that we need to know no there um there's a change uh Personnel down in the office so there's lower the newer person was hired at a lower salary than the okay person that left which is why it's uh lower than 3% okay Mr chairman yes go ahead uh motion to uh approve Department 325 in the amount of $197,600 second Motion in a second any comments or questions all those in favor I any opposed motion carries I believe we're just turning the page to uh engineering anything uh I know this we we still don't have a full-time no we we do now that's right that's one that Ryan came on board and it reflects
016the uh the the market and uh where we brought him on board and an adjustment uh for him as a new hire uh plus the uh plus the 3% so okay that's what that uh Topline Personnel is um working out well uh I think he's got great uh you know potential and is um some doing some good work for us good any uh questions comments anything John you want to add no I don't have anything to add very good Mr chair yes motion to approve Department 330 and the amount of 97,1 second motion and a second any comments or questions all those in favor I any opposed motion carries I think if we go one or two more pages building inspection yep item uh 360 um the Topline Personnel is to reflect the uh new
017position in the uh building official to supplement uh and help and assist uh Chris who is um just above water on doing what he was doing um and also um well that's pretty that's pretty much it because the the um the contractual line item dropped so it's it's really just the the Top Line uh where that full-time position hits hits uh for July 1st did you say this is Foster's job this is no no no no uh this is all new for uh building department there's only been one Chris uh DOA who's been there uh John has come in um in in terms of of just keeping us above water we were really kind of falling underwater with that we tried the regional approach couldn't make that work tried with other other communities tried with
018the Council of governments uh couldn't couldn't get a uh resource sharing uh agreement um so at the bullet to move forward with that um and um comes with uh wealth of knowledge um it was a lateral transfer um and experience coming out of Wallingford um so we anticipate that we'll get caught up on where we have kind of lagged behind in terms of shrinking the um response time for permits and inspections whereas again a lot of other towns are in the same boat uh that just keep pushing it out from two to three weeks to now I've Hearing in some cases six five to six weeks or longer um and um you know the uh what we have in the pipeline coming is uh with the school White Oak and also the uh research um
019it's only you know going to get more involved more permits coming through all right yes go ahead what's the official title of the uh that position now well I think we're going to list assist a a short-term assistant building official assistant building Chris is the building official and this is the assistant building official historically we've gone back and forth between one and two of it's building inspectors okay for a long time uh when in the beginning part of my career was mostly two two building people um when Foster came on board um it went down to one in between that time frame there was like one and a half usually um the activity level in town um necessitates the need for two people in order to meet timely inspections And Timely reviews on the plans
020it also assists in the sense that we can do more thorough in inspections rather than cursy inspections yeah and the like okay I think it was you know worth it we just in the time I've been on the console we tried like you like the man Town manager said various options um to try to come up with alternative means of covering the needs and uh none of them really worked out perfectly yeah yeah yeah I see Chris's truck here every Friday yeah yeah yeah all right any other comments or questions does anyone care to Mr chairman yes motion to approve the department 360 for $226,500 second Motion in a second um any other questions or comments all those in favor I any opposed motion carries thank you are we cover or do you want is
021your not tonight yeah capital is not going to be on until W Wednesday night yeah I mean do we want to talk about Capital his Capital tonight I don't I don't want to if you're okay with that I we could just get some additional information uh if you had any questions to John while he's here and um numberal is wh and Street well well I do have an update on one do you really yeah why don't you go ahead with your update while positive uh um we are going to resume construction activities on wiing Street beginning next Monday both my contractor and the the water company contractor the water contractor is going to start on Tuesday the asphalt plants open KN on wood next Monday and so we will be able to um do the
022restoration work and related to the um the water construction of last year and we also we'll start our drainage work we have to finish the drainage work we're going to work our way from Fair Fair viiew Avenue up to Newton Avenue and then once we've complete the the um drainage work and there's some incidental work that needs to be done and then shortly thereafter we'll Mill the road or the section that needs that's in between the two sections that were done last fall and PVE the streets the expectation is that we will have everything done by Memorial there nice that's awesome nice that would be nice that's Broad Street tooo yeah that's included broad Street's included in that in that um work we met with ever Source today uh to review that and and to
023press them the fact that we need this done before Memorial Day so they had move have now made it a priority um and we'll and and get that done uh ahead of the parade but I think they'll also while they have the crew at least I the way I heard it uh that the crew is going to be um in in there in that area uh that remember the work they did up by Hemingway and they opened up everything up there uh that they would try and get that address as well okay and then of course I think they'll go they're going to wrap around and do the uh Willis and yeah there's a um the variet there's work that they did on all those side streets that lead into Broad Street last summer and
024fall um that'll all be sewn up and repaved um probably before July for or nice nice all right so just um I'm actually on I'm on section 12 page one um it looks like there's four things the manager's recommending for the technical services area you know is there anything you want to share John tonight um about any of the four things haven't seen the ones that all right so we have the uh ms4 annual compliance that's related to the landfill and um all our other drainage work I mean we're as part of um both EPA and Deep's um responsibilities they we're we have to monitor storm water and also we have to spend some time monitoring the landfill the landfill is closed but we still have runoff off the landfill we need to ensure that
025it's not been tainted in any fashion and um as being an urban center planville is considered an urban community um we are required to test storm water for a variety of parameters and also meet some other guidelines that um are necessary to make sure that the water quality of storm water is is adequate okay it it and technically have we gotten the okay like the landfill is closed like are the official paperwork from the state yet or we're still waiting for that still waiting we're still waiting we got some comments back at least the initial comments were pretty minor yep um nothing related really to the actual con work what we did there some there was some documents they did he needed some signatures on okay um but that's only the first review I can't
026guarantee you that they won't come back with the second set of comments but I it looks pretty promising all right uh pavement or painted pavement marking hold on Mr chair you have a question go ahead this is annual compliance is this something we're going to have to do every year and does it belong in capital well there substantial costs related to I mean it's yeah I'm just saying if it's some if it's something we're doing every year then it we could budget for it every year you could put it in operating costs yeah I mean it's just historically substantial purchases or Services have always been wrapped into um capital budget right okay and is the 25,000 that's being recommended it is that we think every year could be up to 25,000 we'll be spending to
027Monitor and well under current pricing 25,000 is about the price okay like everything else nothing never goes down yeah I mean services but this is something that every year we would have we're going to have to spend at least 25,000 going forward there might be years that you were ahead of the curve a little bit on monitoring so you might be able to fall back on but these are services that we the town can't provide even if they were to hire specialized staff I mean we paying a Testing Lab to test for certain things right now we're paying a consultant to do collection I mean many of the collections of these storm events don't occur during normal hours so it it would be difficult for um a staff member to go out and collect these
028okay um and then there's also some analysis that we're not necessarily up to date with in regards to current you know current standards and those kinds of things all right any uh anybody with a question or comment otherwise we can now move to Painted pavement marking I mean that's pretty self-explanatory that's a yearly type of here's another yearly thing it used to be part of the operating budget and then we came kind of fell behind and um it's been reorganized and rather in the past it's come out of the police department oh um in the past now it's moved back into a public works function okay um it was I can tell you it was in the police department function because it occurs at night and here again somebody needs to keep track of them
029um we've we've figured out a way to avoid avoid having somebody monitoring them so but it it it includes Center Line stop bars crosswalks um we're trying to get a um um a system where um we we go we do a certain percentage of all the payment markings in a given year um last year we did some Center Line we're going to finish up the center line this year and move on to crosswalks in the in the future we'll end up doing stop bars it also when we do a Paving job and there's some Paving markings that are associated with Paving job if the town does the paving job um we use this These funds to to repaint the um roads okay all right any other questions or comments uh looks like uh the next
030one we have roadway sign replacement and traffic calming um 20 weed 10,000 signs in town that guide pedest motorists um they need to be replaced on a periodic basis um we had new signs sometimes um traffic coming in the past was something that we ventured into if you recall we did some speed we did some extra paint marks on the streets also that was part of Street coming um we haven't had either demand necessarily for Street timing as we have in the past but if there was a demand and you saw fit to to do something whatever it may be this is what where this where it would come out of the that it would come out of all right any questions regarding sign replacement um sidewalk walk repair and replacement that's an ongoing issue
031I mean you all know that some of the sidewalks not in that R of shape uh we've been we haven't been as aggressive as we were were several years back but um you know people do call my office and other offices regarding sidewalk that's in disrepair and are we still working off the you remember when we had the company come in and literally we still have the base of that um there was some from my perspective there was some um underestimating and overestimating of the conditions um but I mean it generally tell told us where the at least where to start bad stuff the bad sidewalk was um you know depending on how generous you are in regards to funding would depend whether we do a project or we're just going to do Hit or
032Miss complaints I mean if you're open to providing more generous like there's always sidewalks that can get replaced spend whatever money you give me you'll find it somewhere to and and I W and and no one will say that I oh that shouldn't have been done okay all right and then just before we let John go is there over the course of the next couple months can we get an update on the sidewalk how that's going I mean I don't even know how many years ago was it five years years ago we had the company come in and assess the sidewalks we did it we did it um I even remember how long ago we did it during um the first part of co co so 2019 because we started the project then Co came
033the project and then we didn't get final results and towards the end of the be the year that before we got the vaccine okay so I mean I don't know is that 20 I think that's 20 20 yeah we did um a lot of we did a lot of sidewalk with um thepa money I think you allocated as a group about $600,000 worth of sidewalk and we we did that okay since then we have not been we didn't do anything in since then really okay and just maybe just you know an update on you know showing the map and you know highlighting where we've been to I know like Maxine was a concern and yeah we did macine but there are plenty of there other sidewalk in that neighborhood in those neighborhoods that need it
034and there's a couple other smaller sections throughout town that was definitely the study said that was in the greatest need okay and um then there's ones that um are more sporadic that if you yep you could do but it's not imperative that you do it okay well just something you know as we move through the spring maybe just to get an update of where we are or what we've done since 2020 would help me um any questions or comments that's that's the last item under Technical Services for Capital well I guess look at it we're kind of on time still too thank you John okay thanks joh thanks John and we'll be moving uh next is Recreation enjoy the rest of your evening what time is your next meeting 7:30 all right um so move
035to Recreation which is in uh looks like section N9 page four saw Courtney uh and Courtney's here hi Courtney today good how are you doing fantastic good um so we got a couple we actually we have the actual Department recreation department and then we do have a recreation special fund we'll be talking about but first we'll go to uh the recreation Department um I don't know you guys want to share anything highlight anything in the budget yeah sure request yeah Courtney I can go through it uh Rob uh the full-time salary um is is not as large because of the U replacement um one member at a higher rate bringing in a new member at a lower rate uh so that's why it's not a true uh 3% um as it is for most others
036across the board in the full-time uh salary up there there um most notably in this budget is only a 3.92% increase as requested or manager requested um that um the major um two M just two items really uh nothing major but two items that driving that is the um the operating supplies uh 52 uh uh 330 uh for $2,700 uh which is um to fund the um water Mountain at pusi Park uh so that's that item and then um it is um agency subsidy um for uh park on the uh 465 line item from 4,000 to 7500 so 35 uh $3,500 increase uh there okay um and that is um basically an outside agency obviously um that um you know is we go to to to as agency to to accommodate for programs that the
037rec department um just doesn't have the ability to do so that's been ongoing for I 30 years 30 plus years the rate hasn't changed in 30 yeah okay and so um you know the request to to help and assist uh with them I think is long long overdue so I made an adjustment there okay all right yes and that's the that the summer program that's for Park PC for Camp Trumble for Camp Trumble yes other than that that's those three those three increases and 300 in professional development that's it right any uh any comments or questions from anyone no Mr chair yes like to make a motion to adopt Department 510 budget of 27 excuse me 27,5 second uh Motion in a second all those in favor I I any opposed motion carries uh we
038have the special fund which is in uh section 12 page 10 and this is also in the financial dashboard that we do every month right yeah in in this area I'm I'm going to really let uh Courtney speak speak to it because it's tied to some legislation issues that she's been monitoring and her Association has been following with respect to um State bills and the um increases for uh or requests for for Paras but also the state bill regarding um APRN coverage um so we've kind of um dedicated some some additional uh funds for that and I'll turn it over yeah so there's some new legislation that's uh possibly coming out it did just leave the committee on children um last Thursday it passed so it's going to the House of Representatives next uh essentially
039municipalities are exempt from being a state licensed Camp um and they're looking at possibly making us get state license one of the big expenses is to have an APRN on call which obviously won't be super super cheap um they wouldn't need to be on site all day or anything like that which is like the one Saving Grace but um so if that doesn't pass I wouldn't need the $5,000 that's you know for the APRN um and I've been keeping Andy and Mike involved to let them know what's going on with that legislation and everything and that's $5,000 for the APRN for the okay all right and it's just for the summer camp it would be for like both of our summer camps there's some other like cost that are involved um but that's like really
040the big one the rest would be able to fit within my existing budget already but that's like the the big expense okay and I imagine the part-time increase is due to the minimum wage um I oh I'm so go go ahead yeah so I've actually requested that we get two Paras for our summer camp okay um over the last couple years we have seen a large increase in people um you know children with uh special needs and behavioral disorders um most of our staff are you know 16 to 18 years old that's kind of hard to train a 16 to 18 year old to deal with that and then have to deal with 10 other kids at the same time um so I think having a par would not only make our camp safer but
041make it a more valuable experience for everybody involved and the two would that primarily be for the Norton program or I I don't yeah so um we have we have one Camp over at Norton pusi so we' have one at nor one at Mr chairman yes motion to fund Department 515 and the amount of $321,500 motion and a second any other comments or questions all those in favor I any opposed motion carries thank you very much Courtney thank you guys and have a nice night you too you too too all right and now we're uh we have Economic Development and town planning and right on Q Kell enters the room yeah perect for the sers I did a beautiful walk in between uh the end of the day park was looking lovely so good job
042Courtney yes all right so we're gonna we'll move to uh looks like section 5 page 65 um Economic Development yeah it's is the uh salary increase that's what's reflected there um that's it everything else same okay any questions anything you need to add no um just there's some exciting things happening in planville um worked last week and this week with Senator Martin's office on submitting some public testimony uh for both the expansion of the bioscience Enterprise Zone up on the mountain around the Tomaso Center um and then also we're working towards the creation of an airport Zone um around Robertson take advantage of some of the activity we've seen around there lately and uh I know everybody's asking about White Oak and I we're still working on it it's moving right it is moving we're
043yeah continuing forward um so the Mana for team just submitted a revised a conceptual plan um that they are comfortable with and it sounds like that's what they'll be presenting to Planning and Zoning here in the C upcoming months um so we'll just do some ground workor with the state uh make sure all our boxes are checked and hopefully we'll see some shovels in the ground before winter that would be nice yeah and just um and I I forgot to follow up with the town manager I know I think last year about a year ago you gave us a list of uh what's going on in town as far as some of the properties and was there some potential whether it's development or potential sales or whatever businesses moving in okay I don't know if
044you can find it and just update it for us it just it was nice when people show up and say hey What's Going In You know here what's going in there and yeah you know if it's something that can be shared it just it was nice to have that information since it's been a year I think it's been a year was it last spring yeah okay yeah I'll take a look I I don't remember the document off the top of my head but put something together for you yeah we I I yeah I could find it but yeah we'll if you need information from us let us know but yeah okay yeah um all right any comments or questions no I'm good Mr chair yes motion to approve Department 170 in the amount of 94

051fiscal year 26 will be a regular non revalue year so no changes okay Mr chair yes motion to approve Department 114 in the amount of $1,900 second all right we have a motion in a second any comments or questions all those in favor I I any opposed motion carries uh we can move jump to page 44 in the same section for Town Treasurer it's just the 3% increase um stiping paid to the town Treasurer all right Mr chair yes motion to approve Department 135 in the amount of $785 second uh motion and a second any comments or questions s all those in favor I any opposed all right that motion carries uh Turn the Page to the finance department all the increases here are really salaries rated to 3% but I also have one staff
052member who's on steps so it's a little bit higher okay um any comments any questions regarding the finance department Mr chair yes like to make a motion to fund Department 1 36 in the amount of $358,900 we have a motion in a second all those in favor I any opposed motion carries uh we'll turn to page 50 um assessment and revenue um very little change here overall 1.57 increase um we've had some turnover in staff which is why the salaries are a little bit lower than the 3% that we're doing across the board um new Revenue collector uh new Office Professional both of which started lower than the previous uh individual sitting in those seats we did bump Up Overtime a little bit the percentage looks high but it's only 200 bucks um we just
053have uh you know again with new staff it's you know it might be needed a little bit more um the maintenance contracts went up a little bit those are the cost for our tax system our qds tax and assessing system it's just uh software cost increases you'll see across the board in the budgets all right any uh comments or questions Mr chairman yes go ahead motion to fund Department 137 in the amount of $43,200 uh if we can jump to page 59 in that section we're up to insurance so this is the highlight of the budget book and you'll see a lot of red here and um that it simply has to do with timing if you recall last year at this time we were unsure which um insurance company because we went out to
054bid we were going to go with so we were unsure what our premiums would be we ended up going back to kerma who was lower than any other of the bids we had and they've come in with a pretty much a zero a threeyear zero rate increase um of which fiscal year 26 will be year one or two I can't remember now um now it's year two um so our budget was artificially higher than it should have been this year therefore I could lower it down to what it should be uh going forward for next year so this budget is actually being reduced by $785 and you can see the individual detail of all our policies shown below you know we have multiple policies liability Auto properties cyber Insurance drone Insurance flood insurance we no
055longer have the underground storage tank so we don't need that policy anymore um you know we have bonds endorsements um you know we'll be getting a Builders risk policy for the middle school but that will not come out of this budget that will be part of the school project but we do have a lot of other policies outside of you know the bigger ones workers comp and all that okay right any uh any comments or questions Mr chairman yes go ahead like to make a motion to fund Department 160 in the amount of $596,500 oh I'm sorry sorry 63 is 6133 63650 second all right Motion in a second uh all those in favor any opposed motion carries uh Solid Waste Department or management is next section 8 page 10 um this this budget's uh
056an estimate at this point in time as Our Garbage Contract is expires in September you don't have anything to manager can speak more to it but right now I'm just estimating kind of you know estimating let's put it that way we do have U you know again the details are below the line arms are below on the bottom of your page there and you can see our recycling fees have gone up a little bit our you know our tonnage costs for real world and and BR FOC um our gas prices gas and dies diesel are a little bit lower so we're able to uh move things around a little bit there but uh the biggest costs of this budget are at this point in time estimates and if we get any more solid information during
057your deliberations while obviously bring them forward to you and how long was this last contract eight years eight years C can I ask why we're why don't they use diesel trucks why we what's with the gas why is gas on part of the comp they they use a little gas too they do gas and Diesel very little but I mean it's only 2700 bucks yeah I have the monthly reports it's I off the top of my head I don't know the gallons but it's 10 12 something I I I just all right question yeah you said that you we might have more uh upto-date information are there discussions going on or I mean is it a bid a bid process will be we are going to have to start that um um myself Andy will
058be reaching out to talk with uh the company and uh we've got to look at exploring likely be a re first a review um and then an internal discussion on on uh because of the the timing uh of the um contract the length of the contract and I don't know that there's any extensions left on the contract and we might have Morris's review of that I mean obviously we don't want to well in a perfect world you don't you don't change horses Midstream mid rce right whatever the phrase is and uh this is a known quantity a great service um we'd like to go proceed but at the same time we to make sure we're getting the best um expenditure best bang for the buck that we can get so we may you know look
059at a RFP process to go out and solicit proposals for that but again it's not likely we get we may not get you know more than the one we may get so um it's just one of those decisions we've got to do a little bit more research on uh but it is coming fast and probably likely something we'd start beginning this um this this spring for sure real real soon thank you yeah all right any other comments or questions right does anyone uh care to make a motion Mr chairman yes go ahead motion to approve uh line 415 for $1,344 600 second Motion in a second all those in favor I I any opposed motion carries um section 10 uh page five talk about Debt Service we've uh We've held a lot of meetings on
060debt with regards to Capital and our you know trying to get back up to that magic number of 4.4 million um that was reduced a few years ago um we had initially wanted to get back up to the 4.4 million for this 26 budget um but delay being our bond offering now until June is going to help us push off the principal payment on that offering until fiscal year 27 so all we had to do was really budget an estimated interest only payment for 26 having said that we still want to bump up this budget eventually back up to the $4.4 million magic number um but instead of going all the way up there this year we're we're taking a step letter approach and we're asking for an additional 100,000 to get closer to the
0614.4 with the hopes that um next year at this time we can get it back up to the full 4.4 million um which will help us uh ensure and smooth out the debt payments going forward when we start bonding for the middle school project and other projects and so the current budget this would get us to within 50,000 um it would be well 150,000 so we were going to do a full 250 this year but we we only did 100 and so next year you know the Hope again is yes if I did math correctly yes understand the big black number that says 100,000 there yeah yes it's only Monday don't worry we'll get better all good um all right any uh comments any questions so this this just to to yeah summarize this this
062um this still puts money back into our debt service fund okay so again this is um you know we're not at a point yet as we saw in some of our presentations where um we need to Dive Into The Debt Service fund this will actually still put money back into the fund again for future use that's going to be needed as we start bonding for the the bigger projects we have coming on board okay okay and just you know I've had conversations with the town manager um you know I as we get into the spring we are going to probably talk about Debt Service again and talk about the capital and you know it's probably best way to describe as a follow-up to our December meeting we had with the board but you know probably
063use the latest numbers and just discuss and talk about you know why we can go out for the referendum in June and why that fits and how the middle school will fit after that um you know so the good news is we don't think it's going to need to be a Saturday afternoon for four hours we think it's something that would be during the week is is an hour an hour and a half something like that so as we get probably past the budget process here you that'll be something probably in April I yeah whatever date you decide to pick um we'll be following up with our capital and updating our numbers and making sure we're all on the same page all right any other comments questions Mr chairman yes i' like to make a
064motion to fund Department 710 in the amount of $4,280 350 second all right Motion in a second all those in favor I hi any opposed motion carries uh Turn the Page to page eight we'll talk about employee benefits all right so this budget um also it was an estimate but I do have good news hot off the press um we did get a uh obviously this one has to the biggest components of this budget are our retirement accounts both uh our 401K is or 401 a accounts and are Define benefit for police officers um those are are solid numbers you see in the first two line items there were up a little bit um but not not too too bad the big increase was the health insurance where we were targeting 11.5% uh increase however
065uh information as of today uh confirms a rate to be 9.9% increase still high but um what that does for this budget as you see in front of you is I'm requesting you reduce it in total by $51,500 coming to a bottom line number of 5,290 $345 say that again 5,290 345 and uh again that's a $51,500 decrease in the medical premium line items uh reducing the increase from 11.5% to 9.9 um the board of that budget we get to it uh I'm not sure when it's on the schedule this week or next week Thursday Thursday um their budget is about 10% so they're right we're okay you know I don't think there's we're not going to need to adjust their budget with regards to this line all right based on this latest information we
066got today and it is confirmed um I do have a meeting with the state on this uh within the next couple weeks but they've already issued the numbers and rates for every different individual plan so it is it is s in down repeat those numbers again 5,290 345 and the1 187,000 is now uh that'll now be 13 yeah whatever I didn't add that up 3 yeah 136 something 135 something yeah it's 1354 yeah and there's other pieces within that line on them it's not only our active employees health insurance it's our retirees the stiens we pay it is the money we get that's a net number we get uh reimbursements from both employees active uh through through uh payroll deductions we also get payments from retirees at varying rates depending on coverages that they may
067have uh so it's it's a I have a big spreadsheet that's very convoluted I will not throw up on the screen because you won't be able to read it but all these numbers are uh make up this one one one dollar amount okay all right any other comments or questions Mr chairman yes go ahead motion to fund Department 820 in the amount of 5,290 345 second all right we have a motion and a second all those in favor I I any opposed motion carries um and that concludes the finance director section uh we can move now to the town manager section and we'll handle the Town Council section five page four yep 5.55% increase the 101 to for the Town Council includes a bump in other contractual of 5,000 and do we know and should
068have read the commentary first but I missed that I believe the reason for this increase is uh for our annual audit and we presume there's going to be an increase to it so building that here into our budget all right any other comments questions does anyone care to make a motion Mr chairman yes motion to fund Department 101 and the amount of 9 5,46 second Motion in a second all those in favor I any opposed motion carries um we'll move to Veterans Council which is on page 22 in the same section that is uh simply the 3% uh increase or in terms of stien all right Mr chair yes motion to approve Department 119 in the amount of 6, 290 second Motion in a second all those in favor I I any opposed motion carries
069uh next page is the recycling committee yes item uh 121 uh no uh increase it's the same Mr chair go ahead motion to approve Department 121 and the amount of $500 second all right Motion in a second any comments or questions all those in favor I any opposed motion carries uh again Turn the Page to Probate Court yep uh just a small $250 increase there represents 2.63% other contract Mr chairman yes make a motion to fund Department 130 in the amount of $9,750 all right all those in favor I any osed motion carries and again just turn the page to the town manager's office yep five uh page five uh page 31 uh 131 we have the um Topline increase majority of that is the U movement of the full-time salary uh into our line
070item for the social media coordinator but is 50% offset by the Board of Education that is that full-time position we split and this just reflects that we're carrying the full cost but they're paying half of that okay is there any uh any comments any questions Mr chairman yes motion to approve Department 131 for $449,450 second motion and a second any comment or questions all those in favor I I any opposed all right uh human resources which just turned the page again yep item uh 132 Human Resources uh the increases in the Topline Personnel it is the one full-time position I'm asking for with respect to a uh full-time HR manager position um this just one that uh again we're barely keeping our head above water U with um one person as as head in there
071but stretched um with Board of Education and and the town um there is a need uh to be able to get a better handle on the uh onboarding uh benefits and um training if you will uh for all the new employees um and again two-thirds of it is I think on the board of education side one third on our side is maybe that's not fair but it seems like we've been matching them in terms of we trying to keep Pace with them which I don't like but just the nature of the Beast you you you've seen and heard me say about the number of of uh positions that we've had and we've been fortunate enough that you know that we've had good candidates and uh you typically don't see this kind of concentration not just
072the officers that we've seen in terms of the where the uh turnover has been in Police Department all the other off um offices that we've had and and retirements that we're seeing and and or people just moving on to different positions so um I I I just think it's at the point now where like the analysis of on the building department we've got to really um we need more help we need help desperately need help on that side so that's that's the one full-time position I'm asking for and would this is this a similar situation the board picking up part of the cost of the new position or well you that's that's a question I'm I'm is that something that's being worked superintendent and and just I really haven't had a chance I I've talked
073briefly approached the subject with him get my heads up that this is what I'd be be looking for um I also have some other conversations about around this whole the cost sharing of how planville does uh Finance does HR does it now social media and obviously on on the police side what we don't talk about it a lot is the 2 SRO um and youth services for that matter um there are a lot of different positions that that absorbed here in in in our side um and so those are ongoing future conversation that we need to have but uh so part of a bigger discussion part of a bigger discussion yeah yes go ahead um in terms of it's an HR Manager would be the title of the job would it be or would it
074be like an assistant um HR yeah person somewhat you know managerial versus clerical correct right responsibilties management nonunion right in secondary or number two position okay thank all right any other comments or questions um what was the so you said managerial non nonunion what is the benefit of that is that keep them there's a confidential nature you know that we have with respect to um um Personnel matters especially when we get into uh contract negotiations which was what we're doing now right U both on on the board of ed side and our side okay we have an as asme merger happening uh on our side uh that will uh bring together the clerical and um the um Public Works um folks into into into one Union which is going to be challenging to say the
075least um so that's what we're up against U this season we're the beginning of that process already okay there's also uh clerical positions within the department that need managing therefore this position would manageing employees you can't have another Union position manage other Union positions or employees rather okay all right any other comments or questions Mr chair yes motion to approve Department 133 in the amount of $253,400 go we're all set everyone's clear what department this is uh one Department 132 Grandma's not going to like it that you're talking to me like that I know all right any other comments or questions all those in favor all and he opposed all right um again Turn the Page to elections Department 133 yeah the U it's the Top Line uh for part-time um salaries and um obviously
076I think election laws changes early voting um a bunch of requirements going on there um uh in total of $13,900 uh increase but it's all in the uh Top Line Personnel do we and if you have to get back to me that's fine but do we have a cost for what early voting or what was the for early voting what did it cost the town and again you can get back to me I'm just curious ious I know you know we all had again the state you know yeah we had to pull information together for the grants that will not happen in 26 but did happen in 25 and 24 to varying degrees we did have to pull information together um it it varied based on which um ref election we had it was there
077was a couple different ones we had um and and these numbers you see here are you know they're still evolving I mean we don't you know you know they they keep changing things on it so I mean Cindy can speak better to it but it's it's it's a number that um you know we need to have in there in case there's other you know elections and things that I think they're reducing the number of days that you have to be there but it's really we have either two four or six depend employees on a week full week or two week stretch depending on which election timing and all that it's it's expensive they've already given you the the reduction in days do you know what what it is now they haven't determined it for the
078for the April primary was 4 days for the August it was seven and for the actual election we were here they were here for 14 days right right um Saturdays and Sundays were mandatory and two days of 8 to8 were mandatory so they're looking at tweaking that because it it's it's very very cumbersome and it is very timec consuming and then everything on that Sunday prior to the actual election event has to be tied up the reports the counting the tallying has to be hand it over to the town clerk so we can get everything over to them for the actual election event it's a lot so it's and and they're exhausted yeah they are looking to maybe like streamline it to the same date and time frames like maybe seven days for each event
079or five days I don't know what the they're proposing yet right but okay no I just I didn't know if they' come down with the changes yet no no okay no because no excuse absentee voting will be rolling out this year so we don't know how that's going to impact anything right as well and do we know where where are we with the state um with the minimum wage increase are we I don't know if again if you have to get back that's fine I I know it was a multi-year process to raise it January 1st of 206 it'll go up again well assuming it'll it'll go up yes so we've again and most well of all all of our budgets that you see in front of you we have estimated an increase but it's
080not it's not a set number it's not like hey 3% 4% it's based on know CPI or something okay um and you know we're assuming a percentage it'll go up but okay close all right any other comments or questions real real quick yeah under it says uh they do voter registration at the high school 17 18 year olds when does that happen registar question that's yeah that's a registar I apologize but I don't know okay that's okay it's mandatory though yeah it is a mandatory yeah MH that's per statute that's a requirement I know okay just wondering when and generally you have to have one Republican and one Democrat representative every time right right all right Mr chair yes motion to approve Department 133 and the amount of $1,370 all right motion and a second
081all those in favor I any opposed motion carries and the next page Town attorney and legal advice yes that the um only increase there is the $10,000 uhar in the contractual labor which indicates our gearing up for the union contracts and and how many how many different Union contracts we just do just the one would be two but because they decided to merge but it's going to be complicated no I imagine just getting that language and the yeah combining two different contracts into one must take some effort y okay we have three unions in total so both our town hall and Public Works unions th those are the ones looking to to merge this year and then next year around this time we have our police Union up for renegotiation okay all right so any
082questions regarding the town attorney no Department Mr chair yes go ahead make a motion to approve uh Department 134 fund Department 134 the amount of $59,750 second all right Motion in a second all those in favor I any opposed motion carries uh we can move up uh to page 53 for the town clerk's Department yeah the Top Line five uh 3% uh on the Personnel uh salaries um and then there's a few uh changes with operating supplies and um that's about it maintenance contract but that's a swap out with the other contractual you notice a decrease of 1,800 and picked up 1,800 on maintenance contracts Cindy wants to add any other comment for that basically um our state mandated program supplies have all increased um archival paper our books the dog tags that were required
083to purchase everything that we are required by Statute has gone up in price there's everything that I have to buy for my department has gone up it used to be a $50 book is now $175 W yeah so that's most of it all right any uh any comments questions Mr chairman yes go ahead motion of fund Department 150 in the amount of $234,900 second motion and a second all those in favor I any opposed motion carries and again Turn the Page to Information Technology yep that's uh 55 uh it's up overall 11.74% um all in the um other services and charges for um the other contractual and the big one maintenance contracts so uh the uh6 uh $80 increase uh admin um admin's Financial software is an increase there and then the big one is
084the U Microsoft Suite uh or Microsoft products but also cameras copiers virus protection firewall um kind of Soup To Nuts within what we have to uh deal with in terms of um maintenance contracts or ongoing it structure and these are just con we have these contracts and they're just going up this year essentially yeah everything's up like a good 5 to 10% it's just I mean the the other contractual is up 5.89 that's just one contract so the other contracts and the maintenance contracts they're you know again they're all five six 7 8 n 10% and it adds up it's everything it's it's hard to keep up with okay go ahead just I mean this sort of stating the obvious but the Personnel part of it still resides in the Board of Ed uh budget
085that is correct yeah yeah and that's uh Kevin Ross and I should know his exact title and I forgot don't and is it how many technicians do you know I don't know actually I know they've got a pretty robust yeah it's four or five just think it's yeah worth mentioning for public consumption of nothing else absolutely yeah no they do a great job I mean again works yeah I'm sure would love to have more more additional help their flat out as well and you can imagine the fishing and the cyber attacks and things things that are nonstop so the maintenance of the firewall virus protection all of that on a on a you know daily basis so monitor 247 they do a great job all right any other uh comments or questions Mr chair go

089basis where they're get to see um um business owners and and make those inspections so that uh a lot more safety code and issues that are being addressed uh in a timely fashion so um we'd like to continue with that and so that's what the uh the increase slight increase there is for the extra time for the part-time uh inspectors all right and uh anybody a question or a comment Mr chair yes go ahead make a motion to fund Department 370 in the amount of $108,700 second motion and a second all those in favor I any opposed motion carries uh Section 8 page four we're up to health and sanitation right that's our uh Health Department uh with our our three towns involved uh there's some increases there uh year-over-year um doing the best they
090can I think with the director looking at um supplemental funding in terms of state and federal funding um so unfortunately that that is on a you know per capita basis um increases we're we're looking at um gone from uh 670 up to 820 so trying to do the best we can in terms of a multiphased uh multi-year increase rather than all in one year okay the department has done some research and looked at other obviously looked at other health departments across the state and uh one still one of the lowest per capita U or actually I wouldn't say one of the lowest I think probably middle of the road but not not the highest okay that's what like to try and put a cap or try to slow that growth down a little bit but
091I understand there's forces outside of our control with respect to health and uh um things that are coming down from the feds in the state in terms of uh Health Care regulations that we have to deal with all right any comments or questions Mr chair yes go ahead motion to fund Department 410 in the amount of $1 14,130 second all right a motion and a second all those in favor I I any opposed motion carries uh we will just turn the page for uh other Health and Welfare Services yep 41 uh 412 excuse me Health and Welfare Services uh reduction the 35 um that moved from uh the Outside Agency subsidy this is the 3500 that went over uh to park oh okay okay all right is this something that would could utilize for the
092recck Department for the camps the contracted nursing could we expand that contract no that's for the senior center oh okay the nuring program for the senior [Music] center all right good point um I I think it's something I mean if when it comes to that maybe we can piggy back off that service cont maybe something to look at I don't know if it can be but obviously if we're going to be in need of of uh nursing it might not uh may fit may not but something to pursue I like I like the uh economies a scale in terms or if a contract if we're already you know contracted with some agency that instead of you know one nurse or two nurses for senior students we get a nurse for park it may may or
093may not be um something that they want to do but we'll take a look at it right I mean obviously both ends of the spectrum uh seniors that they're dealing with I'm not sure that they they want to get into the um camp Camp business but we'll take a look at it it might make sense yeah yeah this contractor nurses is one nurse it's not a it's not a company it used to be Pro Health back in the day one independent APR okay okay I won't it won't steal her yeah all right any other uh comments any other questions does anyone care to make a motion Mr chair yes motion to approve Department 412 in the amount of 50365 motion and a second all those in favor I any opposed motion carries um if we
094jump to page 18 we have uh Social Services yes part-time um social services that is just the uh Topline uh salary 3% increase Mr chair yes go ahead I'd like to make a motion to fund Department 430 in the amount of $34,100 second all right Motion in a second all those in favor I any opposed motion carries uh next page for Youth Services yes uh 440 um that is an $842 increase represents 7.0 7% um all in the uh Top Line uh for full-time salary and part-time salary there's full-time salary increase of 3% uh but then there's a part-time um salary um for position there uh that's going to be offset uh by some Grant revenues is that correct DCF yes this um we're going to this position is is needed for the Youth Services
095Department but it it's part of the cannabis monies that we um I'm sorry yeah cannabis and oped monies that we're getting uh cannabis money is the 3% increased sales tax that cannabis de or retailers in town have to charge so if somebody buys some because 9.35% St gets 6.35 we get three so this individual that would be an employee we going to pay 50% of that salary from that money okay and I have to report to the state and it's it works out well because we don't really have anything specifically designated to use those funds for this would help do that um the opioid money that comes in from the federal government as part of the the lawsuit that was settled you know years ago that too would also be part of this fund that
096this will be um taken from as well yes and that money if uh is included in some of the totals that we have on the revenue side no it's a fund outside of the general fund but what we we budgeted 50% of the salary here m not knowing exactly what we're getting in for cannabis because the retailer just opened in the fall yeah so we I get paperwork every month indicating gross sales we estimated it for the year we may hit it we may not it it's you know um so we figured that because this position is needed to help sea out with the schools that let's put 50% in the general fund 50% in the grant fund if the grant Revenue comes in higher than we estimate then we could offload more into the
097grants Less in a general fund or vice versa if the grant money doesn't come through come through and we don't know that right now and we don't because it just it just you know open again in the fall so right now I only have four months worth of known sales they are going up every month but I you know again I can't I'm just picking a number at the end of the 12 months and see where we come in and then we can adjust this oops adjust this accordingly okay all right any other comments or questions Mr chair yes make a motion to fund Department 440 in the amount of $17,620.63 classified that's section 10 page [Applause] 10 yep uh 8:30 unclassified um an increase there a portion of which is um for the compant
