JOE FAZZINO, CITY COMPTROLLER: A PDF OF WHAT WE'RE TALKING ABOUT HERE, SO PLEASE DO THAT.
JOE FAZZINO, CITY COMPTROLLER: OKAY, SO OVERALL EXPENSES FOR THE POLICE DEPARTMENT THIS YEAR UP ABOUT $644,000 OR 6%.
[00:05:08]
JOE FAZZINO, CITY COMPTROLLER: SALARIES ARE UP 4.4%, WHICH IS BASED UPON CONTRACTED INCREASES, WHICH ARE GOOD FOR 2022 CONTRACT EXPIRES AT THE END OF NEXT YEAR AND THE ADDITION OF THE POLICE, COMMISSIONER, PUBLIC SAFETY COMMISSION I'M SORRY WE TOOK THAT POSITION OUT IN 21 AND EDIT IT BACK INTO THE BUDGET FOR 22. JOE FAZZINO, CITY COMPTROLLER: EQUIPMENT LINE IS PRETTY MUCH FLAT YEAR OVER YEAR IT'S DOWN ABOUT $3,000 I'M SORRY ABOUT $5,000.
JOE FAZZINO, CITY COMPTROLLER: MATERIALS AND SUPPLIES ABOUT $49,000 OR 12.7% WHICH IS MOSTLY RELATED TO GUNS AND AMMUNITION OF ABOUT $40,000 AND I'LL TURN IT OVER TO TOM OR THE COMMISSIONER TO SPEAK ON THAT.
TOM SCAPPATICCI: YOU.
1914****635: KNOW I CAN JUST BRIEFLY GO OVER YOU KNOW WE'VE ACQUIRED SOME NEW SHOT GUNS AND AMMUNITION THAT.
1914****635: THE TEAM WILL HAVE TO TRAIN ON SO THAT THAT, BASICALLY, IS GOING TO RESULT IN MOST OF THAT INCREASE TOM IS THERE ANYTHING ELSE.
TOM SCAPPATICCI: NO, THE ONLY THING IS.
TOM SCAPPATICCI: MO PRICES HAVE GONE UP SUBSTANTIALLY.
JOE FAZZINO, CITY COMPTROLLER: OKAY.
JOE FAZZINO, CITY COMPTROLLER: CONTRACTUAL COSTS ARE UP ABOUT.
JOE FAZZINO, CITY COMPTROLLER: 230 $3,000 OR 3.8%.
JOE FAZZINO, CITY COMPTROLLER: LARGEST PIECE OF THAT AS MISCELLANEOUS SERVICE CONTRACTS THAT'S UP ABOUT 180 $1,000.
TOM SCAPPATICCI: TOP TO THE BIGGEST PIECE OF THAT IS GOING TO BE TYLER TECHNOLOGY, WHICH IS THE NEW MANAGEMENT, WE HAVE FOR OUR PATROL CARS.
TOM SCAPPATICCI: CONTRACTUALLY OH ABOUT $100,000 BUT IN ADDITION TO HAVE THE SHIP, IN ADDITION TO THAT.
TOM SCAPPATICCI: THEY WANT CS, WHICH IS THE IT CONSULTING SERVICE WE HAVE.
TOM SCAPPATICCI: A MANAGEMENT PERSON, THEY HAVE IN THE PAST.
TOM SCAPPATICCI: WE USED THE BUDGET 35,000 AND THIS YEAR AT 60, WHICH IS ABOUT $40,000 FOR MANAGED SERVICES.
TOM SCAPPATICCI: $8,000 FOR.
THEIR PROJECT.
GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: COM, THIS IS GREG IF YOU CAN MOVE A LITTLE BIT CLOSER TO YOUR MICROPHONE YOU'RE COMING IN AND OUT A LITTLE BIT.
TOM SCAPPATICCI: I'M NOT EVEN SURE ON MY PHONE IT.
TOM SCAPPATICCI: THIS IS NOT MUCH WASTE THAT UP OKAY ALL RIGHT, WE HAVE $8,000 TO REPLACE DESKTOPS.
TOM SCAPPATICCI: TO GO FROM THE WINDOWS SEVEN TO WINDOWS 10 AND THEN WE HAVE AN ADDITIONAL $4,000 FOR CONTENT.
TOM SCAPPATICCI: JUST FOR A CMS. TOM SCAPPATICCI: ALSO IN IN THEIR CONTRACTS, WE HAVE AN ADDITIONAL AMOUNT FOR I'VE WILL TAKE THOSE OFF SITE STORAGE THEY'RE GONE UP ABOUT $20,000 YEAR OVER YEAR AND I THINK THOSE THREE NUMBERS ALONE, PROBABLY SHOULD HAVE HUNDRED $80,000.
GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: BUT SUFFICE SUFFICE TO SAY THAT THE BIGGEST CONTRIBUTOR TO THIS YEAR FOR THOSE SERVICE CONTRACTS IS THE MIGRATION AND ADOPTION OF A NEW CAD SYSTEM WHICH THE COUNCIL PROVED.
GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: ABOUT I DON'T KNOW PROBABLY SIX WEEKS AGO EIGHT WEEKS AGO, AND THEN THE THE COST OF THE TECHNOLOGY CONSULTANT TO ASSIST IN THAT IN THAT INSTALLATION MIGRATION IS THERE.
TOM SCAPPATICCI: ANY ADDITIONAL STORAGE THAT WE'RE ON TOP OF THAT.
JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: SO HOW MUCH OF THAT IS ONGOING COSTS THEM BECAUSE YOU'VE GOT YOUR FIRST TIME IMPLEMENTATION COSTS AND YOUR WHAT'S YOUR ANNUAL LICENSE FEE ON THAT AND YOUR STORAGE COSTS.
TOM SCAPPATICCI: WHAT I'M GIVING YOU IS GOING TO BE ONGOING EUROPE IT'S NOT GOING TO GO UP EVERY YEAR WITH THIS AMOUNT OF MONEY, BUT IT'S GOING TO CONTINUE, AND I MEAN WE HAVE.
JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: IMPLEMENTATION COSTS SMALL I MEAN THAT'S A ONE ONE AND DONE.
GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: YESTERDAY AND JULIE, THAT WAS THAT WAS THE AMOUNT THAT THE COUNCIL APPROPRIATED TWO MONTHS AGO, THAT WAS THE 400 AND I KNOW JOE $450,000.
JOE FAZZINO, CITY COMPTROLLER: YEAH ROUGHLY 400,000 IF YOU SEE LIKE IF YOU'RE LOOKING AT JULIE EQUIPMENT PROJECTION VERSUS ACTUAL SO YOU HAVE THIS COLUMN AND 693 VERSUS THE 143.
JOE FAZZINO, CITY COMPTROLLER: THAT'S THE 450 THERE ARE THAT'S THE 400,000 AND CHANGE THAT IT WENT UP SO THAT'S WHERE IT'S INCLUDED, BUT NEXT YEAR IT'LL BE DOWN HERE IN THIS CONTRACTUAL NUMBER AS TOM IS SPEAKING TO THE 105 AND THEN I'M ASSUMING THE THE.
JOE FAZZINO, CITY COMPTROLLER: WHATEVER ELSE HE WAS TALKING ABOUT IN TERMS OF THAT DATA STORAGE, I THINK HE WAS GETTING TO THAT.
TOM SCAPPATICCI: YEAH THAT WAS THE I WILL BE ADDITIONAL STORAGE JOURNEY THERE AND THEN THE ADDITIONAL CONSULTING SERVICES FROM ANYONE SEE YES.
JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: WHAT ARE THOSE WHAT ARE THOSE ONGOING CONSULTING SERVICES.
[00:10:05]
TOM SCAPPATICCI: THAT HE DOES ARE IT. TOM SCAPPATICCI: FOR THE MOST PART, MORE OF A NETWORK SERVICES VEGETABLE BECAUSE I NEED A NETWORKING SUPPORT.
GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: BUT THERE'S GOING TO GET THERE AS ADDITIONAL MONEY TOM THIS YEAR OVER THE YEARS PAST OR THIS COMING YEAR FOR THEM, BECAUSE OF BECAUSE OF CAT AND I GUESS THAT'S THAT'S THE JULIE'S QUESTION IS HOW MUCH IS THAT GOING UP YEAR OVER YEAR BECAUSE OF THE CAD SYSTEM LIKE.
TOM SCAPPATICCI: WHEN I BUDGETED FOR AND WHAT I'M WHAT I'M BUDGETING FOR NEXT YEAR IS GOING UP $25,000.
TOM SCAPPATICCI: SO THE BUDGET IS INCREASING $25,000 A YEAR OVER YEAR.
GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: FOR FOR A ONE CS.
TOM SCAPPATICCI: THREE ONE CS.
JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: OKAY, AND THAT'S JUST FOR CONSULTING SUPPORT LIKE ON RETAINER AND WHATNOT OR DOES THAT INCLUDE THE STORAGE.
TOM SCAPPATICCI: STORAGE STORAGE TO SEPARATE.
JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: OKAY, I MEAN THE ONLY REASON I'M DOING THIS IS I'M A LITTLE CONFUSED BECAUSE, GENERALLY YOUR YOU PAY FOR THE CONSULTING SUPPORT TO IMPLEMENT.
JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: AND THEN THAT GOES AWAY AND THEN YOU'RE SUPPORTING IT GOING FORWARD I UNDERSTAND STORAGE COSTS IF YOU HAVE MORE DATA AND VIDEO VIDEOS EXPENSIVE TO STORE BUT.
JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: I'M JUST TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHAT WE'RE GETTING FOR THAT ADDITIONAL 25 GRAND IN EMILY.
GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: WELL, I THINK WE HAVE TO.
GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: WHICHEVER KEEP IN MIND IS THAT WITH ONE PERSON IN THE CITIES, IT DEPARTMENT.
GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: ALL OF MUCH OF OUR ONGOING WORK IS BEING DONE BY OUTSIDE CONSULTANTS WE DON'T WE DON'T BECAUSE WE DON'T HAVE OUR OWN STAFF NOW AS YOU RECALL.
GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: FROM FROM THE BUDGET DISCUSSION, WE ARE BUILDING INTO NEXT YEAR'S BUDGET AN ADDITIONAL RESOURCE BECAUSE PART OF WHAT I WANT TO DO, AND PART OF WHAT KERRY WANTS TO DO.
GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: IS JUST TO LOOK AT THE EFFICIENCY OF THE WAY THAT WE'RE RUNNING THE IT FUNCTION GENERALLY AS TO WHETHER WE SHOULD BE BRINGING IN MORE FIT HE IS RELEVANT RELATIVE TO OUR TO OUR CONSULTANTS.
GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: IT'S A LITTLE BIT OF A ALAN SAY A SHOT IN THE DARK, BUT EVEN THOUGH WE'RE PAIN.
GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: TYLER FOR THE YOU KNOW THE BULK OF THE WORK AND THE NEW INSTALLATION THE CAD SYSTEM, WE DO KNOW THAT JUST THE INTEGRATION INTO THE CITY'S SYSTEMS, JUST TO MAKE SURE THAT EVERYTHING IS WORKING CORRECTLY THAT ALL TIES INTO THE CLOUD.
GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: WE ARE ASSUMING THERE'S GOING TO BE SOME ADDITIONAL COSTS AND DOING THAT I IT'S NOT DONE WITH A TREMENDOUS AMOUNT OF SCIENTIFIC PRECISION, WHETHER IT SHOULD BE 2526 OR 27,000.
GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: BUT THAT IS CARRIE AND TYLER'S AND TOM'S BEST ESTIMATE OF WHAT A YOU KNOW, A REALISTIC INCREASES FOR NEXT YEAR, AS WE YOU KNOW LOGIN TO TO THE TO THE NEW SYSTEM.
SARA GODDARD RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: SO GREG TO JULIE, TO FOLLOW JULIE'S POINT AT WILL, WILL THOSE CONSULTING SERVICES BE CHARGED BY THE HOUR IS IT A FLAT FEE PER YEAR OR PER QUARTER OR HOW IS THAT STRUCTURED.
GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: CALM I DON'T I DON'T RECALL, ARE THEY ON RETAINER OR THEY ARE YOU PAYING THEM BY THE HOUR, I DON'T KNOW.
TOM SCAPPATICCI: WHAT THEY'RE TRYING TO DO IS NOW THEY'RE TRYING TO GO TO A MANAGED SERVICE ON RETAINER VERSUS THE WE'RE PAYING THEM ON AN HOURLY BASIS IN THE PAST.
JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: I JUST.
JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: COME IT'S NOT A TREMENDOUS AMOUNT OF MONEY THAT WE'RE TALKING ABOUT IF IT'S $45,000, BUT WE WANT TO BE RESPONSIBLE, WITH ALL THE MONEY IN IT THAT JUST SEEMS WE HAVE A FULL TIME.
JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: PERSON NOW WE'RE HAVING CONSULTANCY ON RETAINER AND I'M TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHAT WHAT ACTUAL.
JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: RESPONSIBILITIES AND BENEFITS COME FROM THAT JUST AND AND THE STORAGE COSTS, I UNDERSTAND THE STORAGE IS CHEAP, I MEAN LIKE I WORK FOR AMAZON WEB SERVICES SO LIKE I DON'T KNOW I.
JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: WILL I'M ONLY SAYING THIS BECAUSE I'M IT SEEMS EVEN HIGH FOR WHAT WE'RE TALKING ABOUT, BUT MAYBE I DON'T HAVE A GOOD HANDLE ON THE SCOPE OF THINGS BECAUSE TRADITIONALLY YOU PAY THOSE UPFRONT CONSULTING FEES AND THERE IS SOME MAYBE LEVEL OF MAINTENANCE, BUT THAT.
JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: I DON'T I DON'T HAVE A GOOD SENSE OF WHAT THAT $25,000 GETS US OVER THE COURSE OF THE YEAR, ONCE THE IMPLEMENTATION IS DONE.
GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: WELL, LIKE I SAID I MEAN WE, I THINK, THE BETTER THE BETTER TIME FOR THIS QUESTION, I MEAN ANYTIME GOOD FOR THE QUESTION, BUT I THINK THAT, AS I SAID.
GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: AS WE'RE SITTING HERE A YEAR FROM NOW WE WILL HAVE A MUCH BETTER SENSE OF WHAT THE ONGOING RUNNING COST IS GOING TO BE, AS WELL AS WHAT OUR ONGOING.
GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: RETAINER SERVICES NEEDS TO BE, I THINK THAT THIS IS A BIT OF A FLIP OF THE COIN, THIS YEAR AND I DON'T MEAN TO BE FLIPPANT ABOUT IT, BUT IT, BUT IT IS A IS A QUESTION MARK.
GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: BECAUSE WE'RE GOING INTO AN INSTALLATION OF A CAD SYSTEM THAT WE'VE HAD FOR A DECADE.
[00:15:02]
GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: SO THERE, THERE IS A CERTAIN AMOUNT OF OF UNKNOWN HERE, I THINK THAT IN THE COURSE OF THIS YEAR IT'LL BE IT'LL PLAY OUT WHAT EXACTLY WE'RE GOING TO NEED GOING FORWARD AND THAT'S NOT JUST AS IT RELATES TO THE POLICE DEPARTMENT, I THINK IT'S GOING TO RELATE TO THE CITY SERVICES. GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: BROADER BECAUSE HOPEFULLY BRINGING IN A NEW AT YOU KNOW, A NEW RESOURCE IS GOING TO IS GOING TO HELP.
JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: WELL, IT COULD GO EITHER WAY RIGHT YOU COULD FIND OUT THE MANAGED SERVICES ARE EASIER AND CHEAPER, YOU KNOW, ON AN ONGOING BASIS, THEN ADDING ANOTHER FULL TIME HEAD, SO I JUST MY ONLY.
JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: MY ONLY THOUGHT ON THIS WOULD BE I GET IT WE'RE YOU KNOW WE DID THE UPFRONT INSTALLATION, WHICH COST A LOT OF MONEY NOW WE'RE STARTING TO HOPEFULLY GET INTO THAT MAINTENANCE MODE, BUT WE DON'T KNOW WHAT STEADY STATE LOOKS LIKE SO WE'RE.
JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: YOU KNOW CONSERVATIVELY BUDGETING, TO MAKE SURE WE HAVE ENOUGH TO COVER IT, I JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE WE'RE TRACKING WHAT WE'RE GETTING FOR THAT, AND IF IT'S LIKE A COUPLE UPDATES OVER THE COURSE OF A YEAR.
JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: YOU KNOW THAT WE SHOULD HAVE A SENSE OF OURS, AND WHAT THEY'VE DONE AND ALL THAT KIND OF STUFF SO WE KNOW AT THE END OF THE DAY.
JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: IS IT ISN'T MORE COST EFFECTIVE TO BRING SOMEBODY ON BOARD, SHOULD WE GO TOTALLY TO A MANAGED SERVICE SITUATION, SO I UNDERSTAND THAT WE'RE AT A LEARNING PHASE RIGHT NOW BUT THAT'S JUST THE STUFF I'D WANT TO HAVE A CLEAR PICTURE OF NEXT YEAR AT THIS TIME RIGHT.
SARA GODDARD RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: AND, AND I THINK YOU ACTUALLY YOU RAISE A REALLY GOOD POINT JULIE, BECAUSE IT JUST HAS ME THINKING, THIS IS PROBABLY NOT THE RIGHT.
SARA GODDARD RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: TIME TO TO DISCUSS IT, BUT THAT THE ISSUE OF YOU KNOW WHETHER HOW MUCH WE DO CONTRACT OUT FOR THESE TYPES OF SERVICES AND OBVIOUSLY.
SARA GODDARD RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: YOU KNOW, THERE IS PROBABLY A GREATER LEVEL OF UNCERTAINTY IN TERMS OF THE EXPENSES FOR THOSE CONTRACTUAL SERVICES IF THEY'RE BY THE HOUR OR THERE, OR THEY HAVE A VARIABLE FUNCTION TO THEM.
SARA GODDARD RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: AND IT MIGHT BE INTERESTING TO TO SEE WHAT OTHER YOU KNOW THE SIZE OF OF IT DEPARTMENTS IN COMPARABLE MUNICIPALITIES.
SARA GODDARD RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: YOU KNOW, WE WE ONLY HAVE ONE PERSON AND THAT JUST MIGHT BE, YOU KNOW THAT HE'S STRETCHED SO THIN AND THAT'S WHY WE RESORT TO THE TO THE CONTRACTUAL SERVICES OR MAYBE THAT'S JUST THE WAY IT'S DONE.
SARA GODDARD RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: BUT IT'S IT'S WORTH IT'S WORTH LOOKING INTO, AND I THINK THAT YOU KNOW I THINK YOU YOU YOU PUT YOUR YOUR FINGER ON IT, BECAUSE WE REALLY DON'T KNOW AND THERE, YOU KNOW HOW MUCH DO WE WANT TO KNOW, AND I THINK WE PROBABLY WANT TO KNOW A FAIR AMOUNT WITH US A CERTAIN SENSE OF CERTAINTY.
JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: YEAH I MEAN, I THINK YOU KNOW AND TOUCH POINTS THERE A LIQUID I THINK PEOPLE ARE STARTING TO OUTSOURCE MORE TO RIGHT, ESPECIALLY AS YOU MOVE THINGS TO THE CLOUD YOU DON'T HAVE LIKE ON PREM.
JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: SORT OF YOU KNOW, DATA RACK MAINTENANCE AND THINGS LIKE THAT RIGHT SO YOU'RE PROBABLY SEEING YEAH YOU GOT LIKE WONDER, YOU KNOW, THEN STAFF TO MAN, THE FORT AND HELP MANAGE LIKE MICROSOFT WINDOWS UPDATES AND ALL THAT STUFF WHICH COULD BE LIKE HAS NOT EXPERIENCED NOT SO EASY RIGHT.
JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: SO YOU KNOW, BUT THERE MIGHT BE YEAH SO IT'S JUST A LEARNING PERIOD, AND I AGREE WITH EVERYTHING YOU JUST SAID, WE DON'T HAVE TO BELABOR IT, EVEN THOUGH WE ALREADY.
JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: IT CAN WE BACK UP A SECOND THOUGH FOR QUESTION, AND MAYBE IT WAS MATERIALS AND SUPPLIES, THERE WAS A $40,000 UPTICK FOR.
JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: A NEW SHOT GUNS AND INCREASED AMMUNITION COSTS AND I JUST BEEN TRYING TO THINK THAT, THROUGH AND I'M I DON'T KNOW HOW MANY SHOTGUNS WE BOUGHT BUT I IT I JUST LIKE TO PROBE THAT $40,000 FIGURE A LITTLE.
JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: TOM AND COMMISSIONER IF, IF WE CAN.
JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: I'M I'M GUESSING HALF A DOZEN SHOTGUNS AND THE REST IS AMMUNITION COSTS AND I'M GUESSING $500 A SHOT GUNS SO SMOKING, LIKE THE AMMUNITION COSTS ARE.
JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: INCREASED AMMUNITION CLOSE TO HUGE.
1914****635: KNOW MAYOR TOM GIVE ME EXACT NUMBER, I THINK WE PURCHASE WAS AT NINE OR 10 TOM SHOTGUNS WE'VE GOT NINE.
TOM SCAPPATICCI: NINE SHOTGUNS IN THE BUDGET AND OFF CONTRACT THEY'RE GOING TO BE 15,500 AND SURE.
JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: WELL.
1914****635: AT MARION THAT THAT IS A YOU KNOW IT IS A QUALITY SHOTGUN THAT WE EXPECT TO GET MANY YEARS OUT OF IT IS A BIT OF A CHANGE FROM PREVIOUS SHOTGUNS BECAUSE SOME OF THE MEMBERS OF DEPARTMENT WE'RE EXPERIENCING DIFFICULTY IN HANDLING THE PREVIOUS FIREARMS IT'S NOT UNIQUE TO OUR DEPARTMENT.
1914****635: YOU KNOW OTHER DEPARTMENTS, THEY JUST CANNOT OPERATE THE SHOTGUN AS WELL AS THEY WILL THIS.
1914****635: ALSO, AS TOM HAS SAID, THE AMMUNITION HAS SKYROCKETED ONE THING IS, WE ARE SHIFTING TO A CHEAPER AMMUNITION FOR TRAINING, IT WILL NOT DIMINISH TRAINING WILL NOT DIMINISH PERFORMANCE IN THE FIELD WILL BE USING.
[00:20:16]
1914****635: THE PREVIOUSLY APPROVED AMMUNITION IN THE FIELD, BUT THAT WILL SAVE US A LITTLE BIT OF MONEY OR BETTER SAY IT HAS SAVED US SOME MONEY. JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: OKAY, AND IS THERE ANY INTO DO WE GET SURPLUS OUR OLD SHOTGUNS.
TOM SCAPPATICCI: WE TRAIN THEM.
JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: I'M SORRY TOM I COULDN'T HEAR YOU.
TOM SCAPPATICCI: WE TRADE THEM IN.
JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: I SEE.
JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: OKAY, WELL, THANK YOU FOR THAT.
GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: THEY'RE JUST I JUST ALSO WANT TO POINT OUT, AS YOU SHOWN YOUR SHEET HERE JUST FOR THE COUNCIL, AND ANYBODY THAT HAPPENS TO BE LOOKING.
GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: AT AND I'LL JUST REPEAT IT AGAIN TONIGHT BECAUSE WE SET IT IN OTHER SITUATIONS, YOU KNOW OUR 2021 BUDGET WITH REFLECTIVE OF WHAT WE WERE GOING THROUGH DURING COVEN AND CERTAIN LINE ITEM CERTAIN THINGS WERE ADJUSTED ACCORDINGLY, BUT IF YOU LOOK AT OUR 22 PROPOSED BUDGET RELATIVE TO OUR.
GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: ACTUAL BUDGET, THERE IS A YOU KNOW, A RELATIVELY SMALL DIFFERENTIAL THEY'RE NOT AS SIGNIFICANT AS YOU'RE LOOKING AT.
GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: EITHER ACTUAL OR REVISED BUDGET OR ACTUAL RESULTS VERSUS THE PROPOSED BUDGET, SO I JUST YOU KNOW IT, THIS IS DIFFERENT, THIS YEAR THAN WE'VE HAD IN YEARS PAST SIMPLY BECAUSE WE WERE DEALING FROM A PLACE OF OF COVEN BUDGETING I'LL SAY IN NOVEMBER OF LAST YEAR.
JOE FAZZINO, CITY COMPTROLLER: EMPLOYEE BENEFITS OVERALL ARE BUT 2.8% $114,000 MOSTLY RELATED TO RELATE INCREASES IN OUR HEALTH INSURANCE, YOU KNOW WE CAN CERTAINLY BUDGET THAT 10% AS I SPOKE EARLIER ABOUT WHEN I DID MY PRESENTATION.
JOE FAZZINO, CITY COMPTROLLER: SO THAT'S REALLY THE INCREASED THERE FOR BOTH FOR TO OUR EMPLOYEE AND RETIREES AND WE DID HAVE SEVERAL RETIREES AND THE LAST YEAR, SO THAT WOULD.
JOE FAZZINO, CITY COMPTROLLER: ALSO ADD TO THAT NUMBER AS WELL.
JOE FAZZINO, CITY COMPTROLLER: THAT'S REALLY GOOD ON THE EXPENSE SIDE.
JOE FAZZINO, CITY COMPTROLLER: I'LL TAKE ANY QUESTIONS BEFORE I JUST JUMPED TO THE REVENUES PRETTY QUICK.
JOE FAZZINO, CITY COMPTROLLER: OKAY, SO ON THE REVENUE SIDE IT'S IT'S DOWN ABOUT $42,000 WHICH IS REFLECTIVE OF THE REMAINING $20,000 THAT WAS GIVEN TO THE BOAT BASIN FOR THE MORNING FEES.
JOE FAZZINO, CITY COMPTROLLER: AND I, FOR SOME REASON I DON'T KNOW THERE WILL BE A REASON, WHEN TOM OR THE COMMISSIONER ANSWERS, BUT WE TOOK THE BUDGET FOR PRISONER TRANSPORTATION OF $12,000 OUT FOR 2022 TOM CAN YOU ELABORATE ON THAT.
TOM SCAPPATICCI: I HAVEN'T OKAY.
JOE FAZZINO, CITY COMPTROLLER: OKAY, OR YES.
TOM SCAPPATICCI: WE HAVE WE HAVEN'T BEEN DOING THE.
TOM SCAPPATICCI: PRISON OF TRANSPORTS THEY'VE BEEN ZOOMING ALL THOSE.
JOE FAZZINO, CITY COMPTROLLER: WITH RIGHT OKAY.
TOM SCAPPATICCI: CARRY.
1914****635: ON WITH THE CHANGE THE LAW WITH BAIL REFORM WE'VE SEEN YOU KNOW, NOT JUST IN THE CITY RIGHT, BUT A STATEWIDE A SIGNIFICANT REDUCTION IN THE NUMBER OF TRANSPORTS I DON'T EXPECT THAT THAT MONEY IS GOING TO COME BACK OKAY.
1914****635: BASICALLY, PEOPLE WHO WERE IN JAIL.
1914****635: BECAUSE THEY COULDN'T POST BAIL ARE NOT BEING COMMITTED TO JAIL ANYMORE, AND THE NEED FOR TRANSPORTS HAS BEEN ELIMINATED.
JOE FAZZINO, CITY COMPTROLLER: AND THAT'S ALL I HAVE REALLY IN TERMS OF OVERALL EXPENSES AND REVENUES.
JOE FAZZINO, CITY COMPTROLLER: THERE'S ANY QUESTIONS I'LL TAKE THEM.
JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: WELL, I HAVE A QUESTION IT'S ACTUALLY ON PAGE THREE DASH 35.
JOE FAZZINO, CITY COMPTROLLER: OR LET ME JUST JUMP THERE.
JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: AND JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: I JUST LIKE TO UNDERSTAND WHAT WE'RE SEEING IN TERMS OF THEIR PERFORMANCE MEASURES, MAYBE IF THE COMMISSIONER COULD.
JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: TOUCH ON THAT.
1914****635: MY APOLOGIES, I DO NOT HAVE THAT DOCUMENT IN FRONT OF ME RIGHT NOW.
JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: OKAY.
JOE FAZZINO, CITY COMPTROLLER: THE AIR DO YOU HAVE SPECIFIC QUESTIONS, I CAN FORWARD IT ON TO THE COMMISSIONER IN AN EMAIL, AND WE CAN GET.
JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: US TO 30% PERCENT CHANGES AND NUMBER OF RESPONSES TO CALLS FOR SERVICES SENTENCES FOR MOVING FOR PARKING AND NUMBER OF ASSIGNED INVESTIGATIONS AND WE'VE GOT A GOOD UPWARD TREND IN ALL OF THOSE BUT IF THERE WAS SOME COLOR THAT'S WHAT I WAS ASKING FOR, AND IF IF NOT, THEN.
[00:25:16]
JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: I DON'T THINK IT'S STRICTLY BUDGET MATERIAL AND WE CAN HEAR IT AT ANOTHER TIME. OKAY.
JOE FAZZINO, CITY COMPTROLLER: OKAY.
JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: AND I THINK YOU WE'VE GOT A NEGATIVE 4.84% IN REVENUES AND AND SHOW, I THINK YOU EXPLAIN THAT WITH.
JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: THE BOAT BASE AND SUBTRACTION AND THEN THE DISCUSSION OF THE PRISONER TRANSPORT.
JOE FAZZINO, CITY COMPTROLLER: THAT IS CORRECT.
GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: AMERICA IF IT'S OKAY WITH YOU, I THINK WHAT I'D LIKE TO SUGGEST AS AS IT RELATES TO PERFORMANCE MEASURES IS TO SHOOT TO HAVE A LIKE A COUNCIL AGENDA ITEM.
GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: UPDATE YOU KNOW EARLY IN THE IN THE YEAR IF THAT'S OKAY, BECAUSE I THINK THAT THAT'LL ALSO GIVE COMMISSIONER COPIA ENOUGH TIME YOU KNOW, HAVING BEEN IN OFFICE IN PLACE, YOU KNOW TO.
GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: TO BE ABLE TO SPEAK TO ALL THOSE METRICS I KNOW THAT SOME OF THE THE QUALITY OF LIFE ITEMS OF CONCERN IN RECENT MONTHS.
GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: THERE'S A SIGNIFICANT UPTICK IN THAT ENFORCEMENT I THINK YOU'RE GOING TO SEE THE SAME THING IN TERMS OF MOVING VIOLATIONS AND SPEED, SO I YOU KNOW, I THINK THAT.
GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: IT'S OKAY WITH YOU I'D LIKE TO HAVE HIM BACK ON THE AGENDA EARLY IN THE YEAR TO SPEAK SPECIFICALLY FOR THOSE TYPES OF ITEMS THAT'S OKAY.
JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: THAT WOULD BE GREAT HEY ACTUALLY, I HAVE ONE OTHER QUESTION AND IT RELATES TO MATERIAL ON THREE DASH 34 AND I IT.
JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: GOES TO THE IMPLEMENTATION OF BODY CAMERAS AND AND ALSO IN IMPROVED VIDEO EQUIPMENT IN IN OUR POLICE CARS, ONE OF THE THINGS I NOTED WHEN A COUPLE OF YEARS AGO, I HAD OCCASION TO LOOK AT SOME OF THE HOUR.
JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: IT WAS.
JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: CAR CAMERA AUDIO, BUT IT WAS IT WAS AUDIO AT THE DRIVER'S WINDOW DURING A TRAFFIC STOP AND THE MICROPHONE WAS ACTUALLY IN THE OFFICERS POCKET.
JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: AND IT WAS VERY HARD TO HEAR THE CONVERSATION, AND EACH TIME THE OFFICER MOVED, THERE WOULD BE THE RUBBING OF FABRIC AGAINST THE MICROPHONE AND THAT WOULD MAKE.
JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: AUDIBILITY FURTHER IMPAIRED AND I'M JUST WONDERING DO OUR BODY CAMERAS RECORD SOUND NOW AND IS THE SOUND QUALITY IMPROVED OVER WHAT WE WERE GETTING BEFORE FROM THE CAMERA IN THE OFFICERS POCKET.
1914****635: MAYOR I'M NOT FAMILIAR WITH WHAT WAS RECORDED IN THE PAST, WHAT I CAN TELL YOU THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH MICROPHONES WHEN YOU'RE ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD THERE'S OTHER TRAFFIC, THERE WERE OTHER NOISES THAT CAN BE.
1914****635: COLLECTED ALSO SOMETIMES THE PLACEMENT OF THE MICROPHONE CAN HAVE A BETTER IMPACT WE WANT TO OFFICERS TO KEEP IT WHERE IT'S PROMINENT IT CAN BE HEARD, BUT AS PEOPLE MOVE AROUND, SOMETIMES THESE THINGS GET.
1914****635: REPOSITIONED ON THE OFFICERS VEST OR ON THE OFFICER SHIRT.
JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: SO IT IS IT'S IT'S NOT AN INTEGRATED PART OF THE BODY CAMERA WHICH, WHICH WOULD BE ON THE OUTSIDE OF THE OFFICERS CLOTHING.
1914****635: AND AND BE PRESENT.
1914****635: IT SORRY.
1914****635: END MOVE I'M NOT FAMILIAR WITH, WITH THE CAMERA IF IT IF IT HAS THE DIRECT PIECE ON IT OR NOT, BUT EVEN ON THE EXTERIOR OF AN OFFICER HAPPENS TO PUT A JACKET ON.
1914****635: THE JACKET COVERS IT UP FOR A SECOND, IT MAY BE OPEN, IT CAN MOVE AND IT CAPTURES OUTSIDE AUDIO ALSO THAT THAT IS.
1914****635: NOT UNIQUE TO THE CITY AWRY IT'S ANYWHERE WHEN YOU'RE ON THE HIGHWAY THE OTHER TRAFFIC MOVING BY IS ALSO CAPTURED ON THAT.
1914****635: WE CAN TRAIN NEW OFFICES WILL WORK WITH YOU OFFICERS TO MAKE SURE THEY'RE KIND OF KEEPING THIS PROMISE SO IT'S NEVER COVERED, BUT YOU CAN NEVER TAKE AWAY THE OUTSIDE NOISE FROM OTHER TRAFFIC FROM JACKHAMMERS FROM CORNS THAT THAT'S COMMON.
JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: UNDER.
JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: UNDER UNDERSTOOD, IF WE CAN KEEP KEEP TRACK OF IT AS AN ISSUE AND AND TRY TO MAKE IT BETTER THAT'S, ALL I CAN ASK.
1914****635: ME OR I WILL REPORT BACK TO YOU ON THAT, IN THAT JANUARY MEETING AND I WILL START TO DO SOME QUALITY CONTROL MEASURES, MYSELF AND HAVE GOOD OLD TONNAGE CHECK ON THAT ON A REGULAR BASIS, THANK YOU.
[00:30:20]
GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: DO WE HAVE MORE QUESTIONS OR FOLLOW UP THAT YOU'D LIKE ON ON POLICE BEFORE WE MOVE TO FIRE. JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: LET'S LET'S GO TO FIRE THANK THANK YOU, COMMISSIONER, THANK YOU, TOM.
TOM SCAPPATICCI: THANK YOU.
GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: IF THE COMMISSIONER IS GOING TO HANG ON FOR.
GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: FOR FIRE LOOKING TO SEE.
JOE FAZZINO, CITY COMPTROLLER: DO WE HAVE YEAH JOHN'S HERE ALL RIGHT AND YOU'RE STILL HERE SO TO ADD SOMETHING TO FIRE SHARE MY SCREEN AGAIN, LET ME JUST FIND THE ONE I'M LOOKING FOR.
OKAY.
TO DO THAT.
JOE FAZZINO, CITY COMPTROLLER: ALRIGHT, SO.
JOE FAZZINO, CITY COMPTROLLER: OVERALL, FIRE DEPARTMENT FOR THE YEAR IS UP ABOUT 3.3%.
JOE FAZZINO, CITY COMPTROLLER: SALARIES ARE UP 113,000 OR 4.04% BASED ON CONTRACTED INCREASES AND STEP INCREASES THE OVERTIME THAT WE BUDGETED FOR IN 2022 IS FLAT COMPARED TO 2021 JOHN IF YOU WANT TO SPEND A COUPLE OF MINUTES ON THAT GOING OVER THE OVERTIME AND WE CAN MOVE FORWARD.
JOE FAZZINO, CITY COMPTROLLER: YOU MIGHT BE ON MUTE IF WE CAN'T HEAR YOU.
JMCDWYER: OKAY, HOW ABOUT RIGHT NOW.
JOE FAZZINO, CITY COMPTROLLER: HEY GO.
JMCDWYER: OVER TIME, NUMBERS KIND OF STAYED CLOSE TO LAST YEAR.
JMCDWYER: THE GOOD NEWS ON THAT SIDE IS IS, THESE ARE NOT REPETITIVE NUMBERS, A LOT OF THE OVERTIME, HAS TO DO WITH PROMOTIONS AT FOR LIEUTENANTS REQUIRED STATE REQUIRED TRAINING THAT HAS TO HAPPEN.
JMCDWYER: THERE'S ALSO WE HAVE SOME VACANCIES, AND WE NEED TO COVER THOSE VACANCIES, WHILE THE NEW HIRES ARE IN THE ACADEMY THAT'S ACCOUNTED FOR, AND THEN WE HAVE ONGOING TRAINING.
JMCDWYER: FOR NEXT YEAR AS WELL AS A BUDGET AMOUNT OF TIME FOR SICKEN PERSONALLY.
JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: THE POINT IF I, IF I REMEMBER THIS CONVERSATION CORRECTLY.
JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: I UNDERSTAND YOU'VE GOT MORE OVERTIME, BECAUSE YOU HAVE PEOPLE THAT ARE GETTING TRAINED UP AND ALL OF THAT, AND SO THEY'RE OUT, YOU HAVE TO BACKFILL THEM, BUT NOW THAT THEY ARE DRYING UP.
JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: HOPEFULLY WE SHOULDN'T SEE THAT REPEAT AND PART OF THE LOGIC, INCREASING THE STAFF SIZE, WAS TO MITIGATE THIS WILL BECAME A PRETTY SIGNIFICANT OVER TIME BUCKET SO SO GOING FORWARD I WOULD I WOULD EXPECT THAT WE WOULD SEE IT DECREASE ACTUALLY A LITTLE BIT NO GREG YES OKAY.
GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: YEAH I MEAN, I THINK THAT THE THE POINT THE JOHN'S MAKING IS THAT WE, THE REASON WE'RE BUDGETING FLAT FOR NEXT YEAR IS THAT WITH THE.
GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: EXPECTED LIEUTENANT PROMOTIONS AND THEIR NEED TO GO IN WILL NEED WHILE THEY'RE IN THE ACADEMY, WE NEED TO BACKFILL AND YOU HAVE TO BACKFILL UNFORTUNATELY WITH OVERTIME.
GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: SO, BUT I, YES I WE I'M ABSOLUTELY AGREEMENT WE'RE ALL IN AGREEMENT THAT THE GARLIC IS TO REDUCE THE OVERTIME NUMBER AS AN EFFICIENCY MEASURE AND STAFF THAT FIREHOUSE WITH THE RIGHT, YOU KNOW NUMBER OF FIREFIGHTERS.
JOE FAZZINO, CITY COMPTROLLER: STATING THE OBVIOUS, BUT WE DID HAVE TWO ADDITIONAL RETIREMENTS IN 2021 SO EVERY TIME THAT HAPPENS STARTS THE CLOCK AGAIN ON THE NEW PEOPLE WITH YOU KNOW YOU KNOW NEW HIRES GOING TO YOU KNOW TO TRAINING AND ALL THAT SO.
JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: SO THAT'S A GOOD POINT SO DO WE I'M SURE WE FORECAST THAT OUT RIGHT SO THAT WE'RE YOU KNOW TRYING THAT WE YOU KNOW, HOPEFULLY WE DON'T HAVE LIKE SEVEN PEOPLE RETIRE IN ONE YEAR AND THEN WE'RE DEALING WITH LIKE MASSIVE OVERTIME ISSUES AS WE BACKFILL.
GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: WELL, WE YOU KNOW, UNFORTUNATELY THERE'S THERE'S EXCEPT FOR THOSE INDIVIDUALS THAT GO TO THE MAXIMUM DATE WE CAN WE CAN.
GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: WE CAN WE CAN HOPE THAT WE CAN GUESS A LITTLE BIT HERE AND THERE, BUT YOU CAN'T PREDICT WITH GREAT PRECISION WHICH FISCAL YEAR IT'S GOING TO IT'S NECESSARILY GOING TO HAPPEN.
GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: YOU CAN JUST LIKE WE DO WITH THE POLICE DEPARTMENT EVERY TIME THERE'S A RETIREMENT THERE'S ONLY TWO CHOICES IN TERMS OF HOW TO FILL THAT POSITION.
GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: YOU EITHER GET A TRANSFER FROM ANOTHER DEPARTMENT WHICH IS YOU KNOW BECOMING MORE AND MORE DIFFICULT.
GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: BECAUSE EVERYBODY'S GOING THROUGH THE SAME THING YOU KNOW WE'RE GOING THROUGH WITH RETIREMENT OR YOU GO OFF THE COUNTY LIST.
[00:35:01]
GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: AND YOU END UP SENDING SOMEBODY THE ACADEMY, WHICH MEANS THAT YOU ARE PAYING OVERTIME, SO I YOUR YOUR POINT, YES, WHERE YOU KNOW JOHN DOES A GOOD JOB, HAS DONE A GOOD JOB OF ANTICIPATING BUT AGAIN IT'S A IT'S A TIME TO A BIT OF A CRAPSHOOT ONE FISCAL YEAR TO THE NEXT. JMCDWYER: YEAH THE OTHER, THE OTHER FACTOR THAT COMES IN, IS IS, WE HAVE TO TIME THE HIRES FOR WHEN THE ACADEMY'S ABOUT TO START.
JMCDWYER: SO THIS ACADEMY IS AN ONGOING ALL YEAR LONG THEY'RE ONLY PROVIDED TWICE A YEAR, SO IT WAS NO POINT IN HIRING A GUY AND HAVING MONTH SALARY THAT WE CAN'T USE.
JMCDWYER: AND BASICALLY JUST SITTING AT THE FIREHOUSE BECAUSE HE DOESN'T HAVE THE TRAINING, SO WE SCHEDULE EVERYTHING ACCORDING TO WIN THE ACADEMIES ARE AVAILABLE AND WE TRY TO FORECAST THE RETIREMENT AND GET THOSE PEOPLE IN PLACE SO THAT WE DON'T LOSE A LOT OF TIME.
JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: THANK YOU THAT'S SMART EXCELLENT SO WHAT'S WHAT'S THIS EQUIPMENT SITUATION IS THIS NOW REFURBISHING OF THE.
JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: TRUCK NOW.
JOE FAZZINO, CITY COMPTROLLER: UNFORTUNATELY, THIS IS OKAY, THIS IS A PART OF A THREE YEAR SCOTT PACK REPLACEMENT PROGRAM, AND THIS IS THE FIRST HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS OVER THE NEXT THREE YEARS I'LL LET JOHN SPEAK TO THAT.
JMCDWYER: OKAY, SO OUR SCOUT PACKS THAT WE WERE.
JMCDWYER: HAVE TO MEET COMPLIANCE ISSUES AND FDA REGULATES THE THE HOW OFTEN THEY NEED TO BE CHANGED AND AND AND THE STANDARDS THAT THING MUST MEET SO.
JMCDWYER: THE CITY RIGHT HAS DONE A VERY CONSCIOUS EFFORT AT GETTING UPGRADES WHEN POSSIBLE SO RATHER THAN BUY A NEW PACK WE PAY A SMALL PERCENTAGE OF THAT TO HAVE THE PACK UPGRADED TO THE TO THE NEWEST COMPLIANCE ISSUE.
JMCDWYER: UNFORTUNATELY FOR US WE'RE AT THE END OF THAT THE PACKS CAN NO LONGER BE UPGRADED.
JMCDWYER: THEY START EXPIRING IN 2223 AND 24 SO STRATEGICALLY RATHER THAN REPLACE THEM ALL AT ONCE, AND HAVE A BIG IMPACT ON THE BUDGET WE'RE GOING TO WE'RE GOING TO SLEEP THIS OUT OVER A THREE YEAR PERIOD.
JMCDWYER: AND THIS WAY IN 20 SOMETHING YEARS WHEN THEY COME TO AGAIN WON'T HAVE AN IMPACT ON THE BUDGET ALL AT ONCE.
JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: AND SO THAT I THINK YOU JUST ANSWERED MY QUESTION IN THERE, TOO, WHICH IS THEY HAVE ABOUT A 20 YEAR SHELF LIFE IS NOT RIGHT, WE.
JMCDWYER: WERE LIKE.
JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: INCREMENTAL UPGRADES THROUGHOUT.
JMCDWYER: WELL, WE GOT ABOUT CLOSE TO 20 OUT OF THESE HOWEVER I DON'T WANT TO BE MISLEADING WITH THAT WE HAVE DONE SO BECAUSE THERE WERE UPGRADES AVAILABLE.
JMCDWYER: THROUGH THE MANUFACTURER THAT MADE THEM COMPLIANT.
JMCDWYER: I DON'T KNOW WHAT THAT FORECAST IS GOING TO LOOK LIKE GOING FORWARD, BUT IF IT'S ANYTHING LIKE THE PAST YES IT'S A VERY STRONG POSSIBILITY WOULD GET ANOTHER 20 YEARS.
JMCDWYER: HOWEVER, THE BOTTLES ARE ON A DO T REGULATION DEPARTMENT TRANSPORTATION REGULATES THE BOTTLES AND THEY MUST MANDATE BE CHANGED OUT AFTER 15 YEARS.
JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: ALL RIGHT, IT'S STILL A DECENT SHELF LIFE THERE SO OKAY SO.
JOE FAZZINO, CITY COMPTROLLER: JOHN IS THERE A COST TO THE.
UPGRADE.
JMCDWYER: OH YEAH THE RESPONSE TO THE UPGRADE ITS NOMINAL COMPARED TO PURCHASING NEW.
JOE FAZZINO, CITY COMPTROLLER: I REMEMBER YEARS AGO YEAH.
JMCDWYER: YEAH IT'S YOU KNOW IT MIGHT BE 15 20,000 FOR ALL OF THEM AT THAT TIME, I WOULD, I WOULD HAVE TO GET BACK TO YOU AT SOME NUMBERS BUT.
JMCDWYER: WE'RE NO LONGER THAN THE MANUFACTURER SCOTT, NO LONGER HAS ANY UPGRADES FOR THE PACKS WE'RE CURRENTLY USING NOW A LOT OF THESE UPGRADES JUST TO KEEP PEOPLE UP TO SLEEP IS.
JMCDWYER: A RESULT OF A FATALITY OR AN INJURY THAT SOMEBODY SUFFER AND THEY MAKE CORRECTIONS TO THE PACK, NOT BECAUSE OF A MALFUNCTION BUT A BETTER FEATURE TO GIVE PEOPLE BETTER WARNING, FOR INSTANCE.
JMCDWYER: NOW THEY HAVE HEADS UP DISPLAY, WE CAN SEE WITHOUT ACTUALLY LOOKING AT A GAUGE IN OUR MASS WHAT THE AIR, THE LEVEL OF VERITAS LEFT IN THE PACK.
JMCDWYER: THERE'S ACCOUNTABILITY OF SOMEBODY IN A MAYDAY WE CAN ACKNOWLEDGE THAT RIGHT ON THE PACK.
JMCDWYER: AND WE KNOW WHO'S IN MAYDAY AND AND WE EVEN KNOW WHERE THEY ARE BECAUSE OF A PATCH TRACKING SYSTEM, SO THESE UPGRADES THAT ARE COMING THROUGH OUR LIFE SAFETY DEVICES THAT HAVE BEEN ADDED BY THE MANUFACTURER CURRENTLY THE NEW UPDATE OUR PACKS CANNOT.
JMCDWYER: TAKE THOSE UPGRADES.
JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: SOUNDS VERY WORTHWHILE.
JMCDWYER: NO YEAH.
1914****635: BUT I JUST ADD ONE THING MAYOR, ALSO WITH THE CAPTAINS AND TONY HE'S DONE SOME GOOD WORK HERE AND IDENTIFYING POTENTIAL FLAWS, SO HE INSPECTS ALL OF THE EQUIPMENT COMING IN, SOME OF WHICH CAN TAKE.
1914****635: A LONG TIME TO GET DELIVERED SO EVERYTHING THAT IS DATE STAMPED IS WHEN IT MANUFACTURED HE'S ONLY TAKING OR ACCEPTING APPROVAL OF EQUIPMENT THAT.
1914****635: ALLOWS US TO HAVE THE MAXIMUM AMOUNT OF TIME BEFORE IT'S DUE TO BE REPLACED AGAIN.
[00:40:02]
1914****635: SOME PLACES CAN SHIP THINGS THAT MIGHT BE A YEAR OLD NOT THAT THAT'S A PROBLEM, BUT IF WE LOSE A YEAR, BUT ON THE OTHER END AND THE CAPTAIN HAS DEVELOPED SOME PLANS TO MAKE SURE THAT DOESN'T HAPPEN, MEANING WILL GET THE MAXIMUM AMOUNT OF VALUE POSSIBLE FROM THE EXPENDITURE. 1914****635: THAT'S GREAT.
1914****635: THANK YOU.
GREAT.
JOE FAZZINO, CITY COMPTROLLER: OKAY.
JOE FAZZINO, CITY COMPTROLLER: MATERIALS AND SUPPLIES.
JOE FAZZINO, CITY COMPTROLLER: UP $3,000 9020 $500 IT LOOKS LIKE YES.
JOE FAZZINO, CITY COMPTROLLER: TRACK FUEL COSTS ARE DOWN OVERALL ABOUT $44,000 A LOT OF THAT IS ATTRIBUTED TO THE REDUCTION IN DEBT SERVICE EXPENSE TO THE BUILDING A VEHICLE FUND FOR.
JOE FAZZINO, CITY COMPTROLLER: I THINK IT WAS FOR THE 2001 BONDS WHICH RELATED TO THE POOR GOD CONSTRUCTION OF THE FIREHOUSES SO THAT IS REMOVED.
JOE FAZZINO, CITY COMPTROLLER: EMPLOYEE BENEFITS OVERALL OR UP ONLY ABOUT 1.3% 26,000 WE HAD INCREASED THE RETIREE HEALTH INSURANCE OF 102,000 AS THERE'S BEEN FOUR RETIREMENTS IN THE LAST 60 END OF 2020 AND THIS YEAR.
JOE FAZZINO, CITY COMPTROLLER: OFFSET BY INCREASED EMPLOYEE HEALTH INSURANCE 27,000 POSITIONS ABOVE AND FAMILY PLANS UPON RETIREMENT AND WERE REPLACED WITH INDIVIDUALS WITH SINGLE PLANS AND TO THEY'RE NOT TAKING HEALTH INSURANCE AT ALL.
JOE FAZZINO, CITY COMPTROLLER: THERE WAS ALSO A DECREASE IN WORKERS COMPENSATION OF ABOUT $48,000 AS THE CITY'S EXPERIENCE RATING CONTINUES TO DECLINE.
JOE FAZZINO, CITY COMPTROLLER: SO OVERALL GOOD INFORMATION THERE.
JOE FAZZINO, CITY COMPTROLLER: THAT'S ALL I HAVE ON THE EXPENSE SIDE ACTUALLY ALL I HAVE PRETTY MUCH.
JOE FAZZINO, CITY COMPTROLLER: DON'T TAKE A QUESTION.
JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: IF WE GO THROUGH THE REVENUE SIDE.
YEAH.
JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: AND I'M LOOKING AT PAGE THREE DASH 37.
JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: WE HAVE THOSE REVENUES DOWN 37.72% YEAH.
JOE FAZZINO, CITY COMPTROLLER: SO I THINK WE REDUCED THE AMOUNT OF FIRE INSPECTION FEES JOHN DO YOU WANT TO TALK ABOUT THAT A LITTLE BIT.
JMCDWYER: THE ONLY THING I COULD SAY ON THAT IS IS.
JMCDWYER: THE FIRE INSPECTION FEES HAVEN'T BEEN INCREASED MUCH THIS YEAR BECAUSE OF ME, PROBABLY BROADENING THE AMOUNT OF WORK I'M DOING IN OTHER AREAS I HAVE DONE A COMPLETE COMPREHENSIVE REVIEW OF THE FIRE PREVENTION BUREAU, I HAVE A VERY LARGE.
JMCDWYER: BINDER THAT I'VE CREATED FOR THE COUNCIL WHEN IT WHEN IT'S READY TO ROLL THIS THING OUT WITH THE ADDITION OF THE FOUR LIEUTENANTS AND MYSELF, THAT WILL INCREASE THE CODE ENFORCEMENT OFFICERS TO A TOTAL OF FIVE.
JMCDWYER: AND I THINK THE COUNCIL WILL BE QUITE HAPPY WITH THE REVENUE SIDE AFTER WE GET THESE TENANTS IN PLACE SO WE'RE DOING A LOT OF BACKROOM WORK AND POINT TO MAKE THAT SITUATION TREMENDOUSLY BETTER.
JMCDWYER: AND THAT'S, ALL I CAN REALLY SAY AT THIS PARTICULAR POINT, THE ADDITION OF ATTENDANCE IS REALLY WHEN THAT'S IMPLEMENTED IN THERE IN FULL SWING, I THINK IT'LL IT'LL IT'LL TURN YOUR HEAD AROUND A LITTLE BIT.
GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: IF I CAN JUST ADD A COUPLE OF POINTS THAT WE DID ASK JOHN I DID ASK JOHN AN AWFUL LOT OF A LOT OF HIM THIS YEAR, AS WE WERE PREPARING YOU KNOW FOR THE.
GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: ADDITIONAL STAFFING AND FRANKLY TO CATCH UP ON A NUMBER OF ITEMS WITH OPERATIONAL ADMINISTRATIVE THAT HAD BEEN LACKING FOR MANY YEARS AND.
GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: THAT HAS BEEN THAT HAS BEEN A I WON'T SAY FIRST PRIORITY, BUT A HIGH PARTY IS AS MUCH AS WE'RE INTERESTED IN IN REVENUES, THE CRITICAL ASPECT FOR THE CITY IS THAT WE NEED TO HAVE A COMPREHENSIVE.
GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: WE NEED TO HAVE A COMPREHENSIVE REPORT OR APPROACH TO OUR FIRE INSPECTIONS WHICH, AGAIN WE HAVE THE CITY HAS NOT HAD.
GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: AND YOU KNOW THERE'LL BE AN AGENDA ITEM THIS WEEK WITH THE LIEUTENANT PROMOTIONS THAT GOES HAND IN GLOVE WITH.
GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: QUADRUPLING THE NUMBER OF INSPECTORS, THAT WILL BE QUALIFIED AND EXPECTED TO GO OUT AND CONDUCT FIRE INSPECTION CITY WIDE, SO I EXPECT A BIG CHANGE IN THE ACTUAL RESULTS AND THE PROJECTED RESULTS AT THIS TIME NEXT YEAR FOR FOR FIRE INSPECTIONS AND PARTICULAR.
JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: HEY I'VE BEEN I KNOW WE ALL APPRECIATE THAT AND AND I JUST WANT TO UNDERSCORE THAT.
JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: IT'S NOT PRIMARILY THE REVENUES THAT WE'RE INTERESTED IN WE'RE INTERESTED IN HAVING THE SORT OF FIRE INSPECTION PROGRAM THAT WE SHOULD HAVE FROM A SAFETY PERSPECTIVE AND UNDERSTANDING THE REVENUE CHANGE.
JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: IS IMPORTANT FOR LEADING US TO THIS CONVERSATION BUT WE'LL HAVE A BETTER FIRE INSPECTION PROGRAM GOING FORWARD IS SUPER IMPORTANT FROM A SAFETY PERSPECTIVE AND WILL BE VERY GRATEFUL FOR.
[00:45:13]
JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: I HAVE A COUPLE OF OTHER QUESTIONS STEMMING FROM PAGE 337. JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: AND SO THERE'S.
JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: REFERENCE THERE TO OUR FIRE DEPARTMENT PARTICIPATING IN THE NEW COUNTY WIDE DISPATCH SYSTEM.
JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: AND IF SOMEONE COULD PROVIDE A LITTLE COLOR THAT AND THEN THE FOLLOWING ITEM IS REFERENCE TO REWRITING THE CITY'S EMERGENCY PREPAREDNESS PLAN, AND I WOULD APPRECIATE SOME COLOR ON THAT AND UNDERSTANDING HOW THAT MIGHT RELATE TO.
JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: WHETHER WHETHER THAT IS A COROLLARY TO THE WORK WE'RE DOING ON THE COUNTY HAS MANAGEMENT PLAN.
JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: SO TWO QUESTIONS AND.
1914****635: I'VE RUN THEM TOGETHER, I CAN.
JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: RESTATE IF THAT MAKES IT.
JMCDWYER: EASIER SO.
JMCDWYER: I GO TALK TO THE COUNTY WIDE DISPATCH SO BASICALLY NOTHING PHYSICALLY IN THE FIREHOUSE IS GOING TO CHANGE THE COUNTY ALREADY DISPATCHES THE CITY AWRY THEY HANDLE ALL OF OUR INCOMING CALLS AND THEY DISPENSE THE FIRE DEPARTMENT ACCORDINGLY WHAT CHANGED IS.
JMCDWYER: WE WERE USING AN ANTIQUATED LOW BAND SYSTEM FOR OUR VOLUNTEERS TO RECEIVE THEIR PAGING ON.
JMCDWYER: AND WHAT I MEAN ANTIQUATED IT'S IT'S IT MANY, MANY OTHER STATES AT DISPOSAL THAT IT OVER 10 YEARS AGO THERE WAS A COST FACTOR AND WESTCHESTER COUNTY KEPT IT IN PLACE.
JMCDWYER: AND WE'VE COMING OUT OF THAT SO WE'RE GOING TO A NEW HIGH BAND PAGING SYSTEM.
JMCDWYER: I THINK IT'S GOING TO BE UP AND RUNNING IN A MONTH FROM REPORTS THAT I'M HEARING, HOWEVER, THAT THAT PAGING SYSTEM AND THE OLD PAGING SYSTEM WILL BE SIMULCAST FOR ONE YEAR.
JMCDWYER: UNTIL UNTIL THEY WORK OUT THE BUGS THE COUNTY WE ENTERED INTO A MUNICIPAL AGREEMENT WITH THE COUNTY, I BELIEVE, A YEAR AGO.
JMCDWYER: WHICH THE COUNTY PROVIDED US WITH NEW RADIOS THOSE RADIOS HAVE MANY OTHER FUNCTIONS, THE OTHER ONES DIDN'T.
JMCDWYER: BUT WE CAN CROSS BAND, SO WE CAN TALK ON THE HIGH BAND, AS WELL AS ON THE TRACKING SYSTEM, I KNOW I'M GETTING A LITTLE TECHNICAL FOR YOU, BUT THAT'S WHAT THEY.
JMCDWYER: THAT'S WHAT THEY DO SO IT'S A BASICALLY A NEW RADIO SYSTEM AS FAR AS THE THE CREATURE COMFORT OF THE SYSTEM, NOTHING IS CHANGING IT'S STILL GOING TO GO OUT THE SAME WAY, IT ALWAYS SAYS IT'S JUST GOING OUT THROUGH DIFFERENT TECHNOLOGY AT THAT POINT, TO SUM IT UP FOR YOU.
THANK YOU.
1914****635: TURN.
GO GO AHEAD, COMMISSIONER.
1914****635: APOLOGIZE, YOU KNOW, IN TERMS OF EMERGENCY PLAN AND WE WANT TO LOOK AT THE PLAN AND MAKE SURE IT'S APPROPRIATE FOR TODAY, GIVEN THE CHALLENGES, YOU KNOW IN CITY AND.
1914****635: JUST HOW THINGS ARE CHANGING IN TERMS OF FLOODING, YOU KNOW I'VE SPOKEN WITH THE COUNCIL, PRIVATE PREVIOUSLY ABOUT DEVELOPING IT IN AN ALL HAZARDS PLANTS.
1914****635: THAT WE COULD USE FOR DIFFERENT SITUATIONS, SO THAT THAT WOULD BE THE DEVELOPMENT OF THAT PLAN I DON'T KNOW HOW WOULD IMPACT OR NEGATIVELY THE COUNTY PLAN, BUT THIS WOULD BE LOOKING AT.
1914****635: AT THE CITY AND TO MAKE SURE WE'RE PREPARED TO RESPOND TO EMERGENCIES APPROPRIATELY AND THAT YOU KNOW IT WAS DOVETAILING WITH THE CAPITAL, BUT REALLY IT'S A LOOK AT WHAT'S HAPPENING IN THE CITY.
JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: THANK YOU AND AND IT'S WONDERFUL THAT WILL BE DOING THAT.
JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: I UNDERSTOOD GREG FROM.
JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: CONVERSATION WITH CHRISTIAN MILLER BACK WHEN WE WERE TALKING ABOUT THE HAZARD MANAGEMENT PLAN THAT THERE WOULD BE A LATER ADDITION TO IT.
JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: OR A SECOND CHAPTER OF WORK FOR US THAT IS DOING OUR PIECE OF A COUNTY EMERGENCY.
JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: PREPAREDNESS OR MANAGEMENT PLAN AND AND MAYBE WE'RE GETTING TWO BIRDS WITH ONE STONE HERE WITH THE WORK THAT THAT THE COMMISSIONER IS IS SAYING THAT WILL UNDERTAKE.
GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: YEAH I NEED I NEED TO GO BACK AND AND FIND THE WHAT THE COUNTY PLAN WAS GOING TO BE, I MEAN THE HAZARD MITIGATION PLAN I'M NOT SURE WHAT YOU IF THAT WAS WHAT YOU'RE REFERRING TO OR NOT IS OBVIOUSLY A FEMA DOCUMENT IN TERMS OF A COUNTY EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT PLAN.
GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: MY MY EXPECTATION IS THAT, WHATEVER THE COMMISSIONER IS WORKING ON WOULDN'T NEED TO SUPPLEMENT OR OR SUPPLANT, THAT IS THE CASE MAY BE, BUT BUT I.
[00:50:07]
GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: OFF TOP MY HEAD I DON'T KNOW WHAT THE COUNTY OR COUNTIES PLAN FOR THE EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT PLANS, GOING TO BE. JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: OKAY, THANK YOU.
GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: UM DO WE HAVE OTHER FIRE DEPARTMENT BUDGET QUESTIONS OR OTHER RELATED QUESTIONS FOR THE COMMISSIONER FOR CAPTAIN MCGUIRE TONIGHT.
JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: THANK THANK YOU BOTH.
JMCDWYER: WELL, THANKS FOR HAVING US.
JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: OUR PLEASURE.
CAROLINA JOHNSON RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: THANK YOU.
BEN STACKS RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: THANK YOU.
GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: I GUESS, WE WILL TURN TO PUBLIC WORKS.
JOE FAZZINO, CITY COMPTROLLER: LAST, BUT CERTAINLY NOT LEAST, WE GO.
JOE FAZZINO, CITY COMPTROLLER: LET'S PULL UP THE SCREEN.
JOE FAZZINO, CITY COMPTROLLER: OKAY, SO THIS IS ALWAYS THE LARGEST BUDGET IN THE CITY.
JOE FAZZINO, CITY COMPTROLLER: SAME AS THE REST OF THE CITY 70% IS MADE UP OF SALARIES AND TAXES AND BENEFITS.
JOE FAZZINO, CITY COMPTROLLER: OVERALL, THAT NUMBER FOR THE YEAR IS UP $44,000 OR POINT 6%, WHICH MEANS THE REST OF THE EXPENSES ARE BUDGET TO BE DOWN BECAUSE WE HAVE AN OVERALL DECREASE IN EXPENDITURES OF.
JOE FAZZINO, CITY COMPTROLLER: IS PRETTY MUCH A FLAT BUDGET FOR THE YEAR POINT TWO 2% DOWN.
JOE FAZZINO, CITY COMPTROLLER: SALARIES ARE UP 150 $9,000 3.9%, WHICH IS BASED ON CONTRACTED INCREASES AND STEP INCREASES, AS WELL AS WE TALKED LAST TIME WE SPOKE WITH SALLY THAT WE REALLOCATE SOME OF THE REC STAFF TO DP W.
JOE FAZZINO, CITY COMPTROLLER: EQUIPMENT REMAINS FLAT 6.64% BUT THE ONLY DIFFERENCE IS ABOUT $33,000 ON THAT SIDE MATERIALS AND SUPPLIES ARE DOWN ABOUT $14,000 OR 1.2%.
JOE FAZZINO, CITY COMPTROLLER: CONTRACTUAL COSTS OVERALL ARE DOWN $13,000 OR POINT 8%, AND THIS IS MADE UP OF THE INNER FUND SERVICE CHARGES GOING DOWN 34,000 WE TALKED EARLIER ABOUT THE DEBT SERVICE IN 2001 COMING OFF THE BOOKS THAT'S THE SAME THING HERE FOR THE BUILDING AND VEHICLE FUN.
JOE FAZZINO, CITY COMPTROLLER: AND JOE FAZZINO, CITY COMPTROLLER: WE ALSO HAVE AN INCREASE IN ITSELF, AND SO ABOUT $30,000 AND I THINK RYAN, WILL SPEAK TO THAT.
RYAN COYNE, CITY ENGINEER: SURE, GOOD EVENING, SO WE DO HAVE.
RYAN COYNE, CITY ENGINEER: SOME ADDITIONAL MONIES IN CONSULTING FOR ANTICIPATED STORM DRAINAGE DESIGN WORK.
RYAN COYNE, CITY ENGINEER: IN THE WAKE OF.
RYAN COYNE, CITY ENGINEER: HURRICANE NIGHT AND THE WORK THAT WE'RE DOING NOW IN HOUSE TO CAPTURE SOME ISSUES IN THESE 10 TO 12 LOCATIONS THROUGHOUT TOWN OF NON RIVERINE FLOODING.
RYAN COYNE, CITY ENGINEER: WHERE WE ARE PUTTING SOME ABOUT $30,000 IN TO.
RYAN COYNE, CITY ENGINEER: ALLOW US TO HAVE SOME CONSULTANTS LOOK LOOK AT A DEEPER DIVE AND SOME OF THESE LOCATIONS THAT THAT NEED TO.
JOE FAZZINO, CITY COMPTROLLER: AND LASTLY, ON THE BUDGET, THE OPERATION SIDE EMPLOYEE BENEFITS ARE DOWN OVERALL 130 $5,000 OR 1.3% THIS IS MOSTLY DUE TO THE DECREASE IN CONTRIBUTIONS IN NEW YORK STATE RETIREMENT OF 140 6000 AS I HAD MENTIONED DURING MY INITIAL BUDGET PRESENTATION WE WERE.
JOE FAZZINO, CITY COMPTROLLER: EXPERIENCING A 25% DECREASE IN CONTRIBUTIONS TO THE RETIREMENT SYSTEM FOR 2022 AFTER THE LARGE INCREASE IN 2021.
JOE FAZZINO, CITY COMPTROLLER: ALSO, THERE WAS A DECREASE IN WORKERS COMPENSATION COSTS OF $71,000 AGAIN WE TALKED ABOUT THE EXPERIENCE RATING GOING DOWN, AND THIS WAS OFFSET BY SOME INCREASES IN OBVIOUSLY HEALTH INSURANCE AS WE BUDGETED A 10% FOR THE PREMIUMS IN 2022.
JOE FAZZINO, CITY COMPTROLLER: AND THAT'S BASICALLY EVERYTHING I HAVE ON THE EXPENSE SIDE IN TERMS OF OPERATING AND WE'LL TAKE ANY QUESTIONS BEFORE WE MOVE INTO SOME OTHER THINGS.
JOE FAZZINO, CITY COMPTROLLER: OKAY, SO THAT PICTURE ON THIS SHEET THAT I'M SHOWING YOU FOR 2022 AND GOING FORWARD WHERE WE STARTED WITH $150,000 IN THE TAX RATE ON AN ANNUAL BASIS FOR THE ANNUAL SEWER MAINTENANCE PROGRAM AND RYAN, IF YOU WANT TO SPEAK A LITTLE BIT ABOUT THAT.
[00:55:09]
RYAN COYNE, CITY ENGINEER: SO AS PART OF THE SUIT THE SOUND SETTLEMENT IN OUR CONSENT DAUGHTER, WE WERE REQUIRED TO STUDY. RYAN COYNE, CITY ENGINEER: OUR SEWER BUDGET AND HOW MUCH, GIVEN THE WORK THAT WE HAVE TO DO OVER THE NEXT COMING YEARS HOW WE'RE FUNDING THAT.
RYAN COYNE, CITY ENGINEER: AND, AND WHAT ADDITIONAL WORK NEEDS TO BE DONE SO, WE DO HAVE.
RYAN COYNE, CITY ENGINEER: $150,000 AND SEWER AND DRAIN WORK INCREASE IN THE NEXT COMING YEARS AND THAT WILL INCLUDE.
RYAN COYNE, CITY ENGINEER: WORK THAT'S OUTSIDE OF THE SEWER WORK AND THE CAP X THAT WILL NEED TO HAPPEN GOING FORWARD WITH PIPELINE AND.
RYAN COYNE, CITY ENGINEER: YOU KNOW, SOME MANUAL REPAIRS AND THINGS LIKE THAT SO IT'S AN, THIS IS AN OPERATING A YEARLY OPERATING NUMBER THAT WE DO NEED TO INCORPORATED THE BUDGET SEPARATE AND ASIDE FROM THE CAPITAL WORK THAT WE'RE DOING.
GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: RYAN BALLPARK, WHAT IS YOUR NORMAL YOU'RE IN YOU'RE OUT MAINTENANCE WORK ON THE SHORE SYSTEM IS ALREADY A MUCH.
RYAN COYNE, CITY ENGINEER: DID WE PUT 400,000 IN AND THAT'S NOT INCLUDING JOE CORRECT ME HERE BUT THAT'S THAT'S DOESN'T TAKE INTO ACCOUNT THE EMPLOYEE SALARIES AND BENEFITS BUT IT'S $4,000 AND.
RYAN COYNE, CITY ENGINEER: WORK PLUS THIS ADDITIONAL 150 YEAH.
JOE FAZZINO, CITY COMPTROLLER: WE HAVE IT OBVIOUSLY WE HAVE THE ANNUAL WHAT WE HAVE A COST CENTER FOR SANITY SANITARY SEWER IS ANNUALLY FOR 20 WHICH DOES INCLUDE THE EMPLOYEE BENEFITS AS WELL.
JOE FAZZINO, CITY COMPTROLLER: AS SALARIES AND BENEFITS.
SARA GODDARD RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: ACTUALLY.
SARA GODDARD RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: I WAS JUST GONNA ASK EM SO THIS THE IT'S ROUGHLY.
JOE FAZZINO, CITY COMPTROLLER: IN THE BUDGET FOR THIS LAST.
SARA GODDARD RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: AND DO YOU SEE THAT, FOR I KNOW IT'S PART OF THE CONSENT ORDER, BUT DO YOU SEE IT AS PART OF THE.
SARA GODDARD RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: TIME IMMEMORIAL, AND IF SO, DO YOU SEE IT INCREASING.
SARA GODDARD RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: EVERY YEAR BY CERTAIN PERCENTAGE OR OR IS IT PRETTY MUCH A FLAT.
SARA GODDARD RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: FEE OR OUR EXPENSE.
RYAN COYNE, CITY ENGINEER: I WOULDN'T EXPECT TO GOING AWAY.
RYAN COYNE, CITY ENGINEER: AND, AND WE DID HAVE OUR.
RYAN COYNE, CITY ENGINEER: CONSULTANT GO THROUGH ALL THE WORK AND THE NUMBERS FLAT 150.
SARA GODDARD RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: OKAY, GREAT THANKS.
GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: GOOD ACTUALLY AND YOU'RE GOING TO BE PRESENTED THIS AT SOME POINT THAT, AS PART OF THE CONSENT ORDER, WE HAD TO HAVE AN OUTSIDE PARTY LOOK AT WHAT WE AGREED TO DO.
GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: LOOKED AT WHAT OUR ONGOING MAINTENANCE AS A BASELINE WAS AND PROJECT OUT WHAT THE COST WOULD BE HAVE A MEETING THE REQUIREMENTS OF THE CONSENT ORDER AND THAT'S WHERE THE HUNDRED $50,000 CONTROL.
SARA GODDARD RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: ON IT, THANK YOU.
JOE FAZZINO, CITY COMPTROLLER: AND, OBVIOUSLY, THE BIGGEST THING WE DID THIS YEAR IN THE BUDGET, THE NEWEST EDITION IS THE VEHICLE REPLACEMENT PROGRAM.
JOE FAZZINO, CITY COMPTROLLER: NOT SHOWN ON THIS PAGE, BUT WE ARE DEDICATING $1.6 MILLION AND FUND BALANCE TO THIS PROGRAM AS WELL AS $400,000 THROUGH THE TAX RATE FOR ANNUAL.
JOE FAZZINO, CITY COMPTROLLER: FUNDING OF THE VEHICLE REPLACEMENT PROGRAM SO RYAN I'LL TURN IT OVER TO YOU KIND OF IS TO GO GO BACK AROUND ON THIS.
RYAN COYNE, CITY ENGINEER: SURE, SO WORKING WITH GREG GREG AND JOE WE DEVELOPED A VEHICLE REPLACEMENT.
RYAN COYNE, CITY ENGINEER: PROGRAM SPREADSHEET THAT TAKES INTO ACCOUNT THE THE ANNUAL COST NEEDED TO.
RYAN COYNE, CITY ENGINEER: REPLACE INCREMENTAL ANNUAL COSTS NEED TO REPLACE VEHICLES.
RYAN COYNE, CITY ENGINEER: IN FUTURE YEARS, SO, FOR INSTANCE, IF WE NEED TO BUY A NEW SEWER TRUCK THAT COST HALF A MILLION DOLLARS IN 10 YEARS THAT WOULD ACCOUNT FOR US, PUTTING AWAY $50,000 A YEAR EVERY YEAR.
RYAN COYNE, CITY ENGINEER: SO WHAT WE'RE TRYING TO DO IS TO TO CAPTURE THAT MONEY SO WE'RE NOT HIT WITH I DON'T WANT TO CALL THEM SURPRISE COSTS, BUT ONE BIG SHOT COST THE LATEST ONE FOR US ANYWAY, WAS THE GARBAGE TRUCKS, YOU KNOW THAT WAS A ONE TIME LARGE EXPENDITURE.
RYAN COYNE, CITY ENGINEER: BUT WHERE WE'VE DEVELOPED IS A SYSTEM WHERE AND WE'RE STILL WORKING THROUGH SOME OF THOSE DETAILS AND PROJECTING OUT LIFE COST OF THE LIFE CYCLES OF THE VEHICLES THEMSELVES BUT WE'RE TRYING TO DO IS IS TO BETTER.
RYAN COYNE, CITY ENGINEER: MANAGE THAT VEHICLE REPLACEMENT ON ONGOING BASIS.
JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: THAT.
CAROLINA JOHNSON RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: IS THIS IS THESE FIND ONLY FOR DP W VEHICLES OR ANY POLICE OR FIRE VEHICLES IN IT AS WELL.
[01:00:01]
RYAN COYNE, CITY ENGINEER: IT'S THE WHOLE CITY FLEET FIRE TRUCKS ALL THE POLICE VEHICLES STAFF VEHICLES BOTH BASED AND NOT EVERYTHING. JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: JUST WITH RESPECT TO TO GARBAGE TRUCKS WHICH, WHICH YOU MENTIONED RYAN, IN PASSING, ONE OF THE THINGS THAT WE EXPERIENCED, OF COURSE, WAS THE NEED TO BUY A WHOLE FLEET AT ONCE.
JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: RATHER THAN PURCHASING NEW ONES ON A ROLLING BASIS, AND IT WOULD BE GREAT IF WE COULD AT LEAST BE CONSIDERING.
JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: THE POTENTIAL VIRTUES IN DOING THAT, AS AS THIS FLEET AGES AND THERE WILL ALSO BE THE QUESTION I'M SURE RECURRING OF WHAT STYLE OF TRUCKS AND WHAT TYPE OF.
JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: PICKUP WE AS A CITY ONE AND ALL THOSE ISSUES CAME TO US AT ONE TIME AS A COUNCIL WHEN THE OLD FLEET WAS LITERALLY ON ITS LAST LEGS, SO IT WOULD BE GREAT IF.
JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: I DON'T KNOW AND HOW LONG THREE OR FOUR YEARS, WE COULD BE STARTING OUR CONSIDERATION OF THE GARBAGE TRUCK FLEET AND THE NEED FOR ITS REPLACEMENT, WHICH NO DOUBT WILL BE BECOMING PRESSING AT THAT TIME.
JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: AND, AND THEN QUESTION FOR.
JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: GREG AND JOE AND RYAN ALL IS WE'RE GOING TO BE PUTTING ESSENTIALLY $2 MILLION INTO THE VEHICLE FUND THIS YEAR AND OUR GOAL IS TO GET TO SOME SORT OF CONTRIBUTORY STEADY STATE.
JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: DOWN THE ROAD AND I'D BE CURIOUS TO KNOW WHEN WE EXPECT TO DO THAT, AND WHAT SORT OF ANNUAL COSTS OR ANNUAL CONTRIBUTIONS WE'RE PROJECTING IN ORDER TO GET TO WHERE WE NEED TO BE TO BEAR THE MILLION DOLLARS ANNUALLY THAT WE NOW PROJECT.
GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: WELL, LET ME I CAN GIVE YOU A COUPLE DIFFERENT POINTS AARON AND, AS YOU, AS YOU CAN IMAGINE, THERE IS THERE ARE.
GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: MANY CHARACTERISTICS OF HOW YOU GET TO WHAT AN EYE WITH THE FLEET CONTRIBUTION NEEDS TO BE AND YOU'RE YOU MADE A COUPLE OF THOSE EXAMPLES ALREADY YOU KNOW WE DON'T KNOW WHAT.
GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: THE NATURE IS OF A GARBAGE PICKUP EIGHT YEARS FROM NOW, THAT THE CITY IS GOING TO WANT NOR DO WE KNOW EXACTLY WHAT THE TECHNOLOGY THAT'S GOING TO BE AVAILABLE IN A GARBAGE TRUCK AT THAT POINT WE DON'T KNOW IF.
GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: YOU KNOW IF A IF WE'VE NOW GONE TO ELECTRIC GARBAGE TRUCKS, BECAUSE THE TECHNOLOGY IS THERE AND THAT HAS A CERTAIN PRICE POINT VERSUS WHERE WE ARE.
GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: THE SAME CAN BE SAID FOR FIRE PREVENTION, WE DON'T KNOW NECESSARILY 10 YEARS FROM NOW, OR 12 YEARS FROM NOW, WHEN WE REPLACE A LADDER WHAT THE.
GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: WHAT THE NEED OF THE CITY IS GOING TO BE WHETHER WE WANT TO A LADDER IN THE CONVENTIONAL STYLE, OR WE WANT SOMETHING ELSE.
GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: THE PURPOSE OF THIS EXERCISE, HOWEVER, IS TO PUT A LITTLE BIT MORE OF A SCIENTIFIC APPROACH THAN WHAT'S BEEN DONE IN THE PAST, WHICH HAS HISTORICALLY BEEN OH MY GOSH WE HAVE NO GARBAGE TRUCKS, WE NEED TO SPEND A MILLION DOLLARS OR MILLION TO WIN BY THE.
GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: I THINK THAT IT'S GOING TO TAKE THE BETTER PART OF THE NEXT YEAR OR SO TO FINALIZE WITH THE IDEAL FLEET SHOULD FLEET PLAN SHOULD BE BECAUSE.
GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: WE DON'T WANT TO PUT INTO THE TAX RATE BUST OUT CONSERVATIVE RETAIL.
GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: FOR WHAT WE HAVE RIGHT NOW, KNOWING THAT THINGS ARE GOING TO CHANGE AND WE MAY DECIDE TO RECYCLE OUR CURRENT VEHICLES IN A LITTLE BIT DIFFERENT MANNER.
GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: I THINK IN MY BUDGET MESSAGE I GAVE YOU A BALLPARK OF A MILLION DOLLARS A YEAR, BECAUSE I THINK THAT'S A FAIR GUESS OF WHAT THE CITY WILL NEED TO SPEND ON AN ONGOING BASIS.
GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: IF WE IF WE FULLY TAKE INTO ACCOUNT ALL OF OUR VEHICLES AND THE ACCURATE AMOUNT OF DEPRECIATION AND REINVESTMENT, BUT I THINK IT'S GOING TO BE A LITTLE BIT OF A WORK IN PROGRESS OVER THE NEXT YEAR AND WE ALSO FRANKLY DIDN'T WANT TO WITH THIS ONE.
GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: BUDGET, YOU KNOW SHOCK THE SYSTEM AND PUT IN A YOU KNOW, A 4% TAX INCREASE SOLELY FOR THE PURPOSE OF VEHICLES RIGHT OUT OF THE BOX, SO WE FEEL LIKE WITH THIS SURPLUS WE BOUGHT OURSELVES.
GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: A COUPLE OF YEARS OF TIME, AS WE GET A BETTER HANDLE ON WHAT THE ACTUAL NUMBER REALLY SHOULD BE, BUT I THINK IT'S FAIR TO GUESS IT COULD BE, OR SHOULD BE UPWARDS OF A MILLION DOLLARS A YEAR INVESTED IN VEHICLES.
GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: I'M NOT SURE IF THAT ANSWERED YOUR QUESTION.
JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: NO, BUT IT'S A START, I UNDERSTAND IT'S A WORK IN A WORK IN PROGRESS AND SOMETHING WILL BE COMING BACK TO.
[01:05:09]
JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: I HAVE ONE MORE QUESTION ON. JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: DP W IF WE'RE READY FOR FOR THAT I DON'T KNOW IF WE'RE THERE JOE.
JOE FAZZINO, CITY COMPTROLLER: WHENEVER YOU'RE READY.
JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: SO THIS IS ON PAGE 366 AND WE'RE SHOWING UNDER LIST OF AUTHORIZED POSITIONS IT LOOKS LIKE ROUGHLY 10 ADDITIONAL POSITIONS.

JOE FAZZINO, CITY COMPTROLLER: VACANT POSITIONS, SO WE DO, INCREASE THE BUDGET YEAR OVER YEAR IT'S SAME NUMBER IT'S JUST THERE'S SO MANY VACANT POSITIONS ACROSS THE CITY AT THIS POINT.
JOE FAZZINO, CITY COMPTROLLER: YOU LOOK AT PAGE TWO I DON'T KNOW IF THAT'S PROBABLY THAT THIS ONE PLACE TO LOOK AT IT, I BELIEVE WE REALLOCATED POSITIONS, THOUGH, TOO, SO THERE'S A LITTLE I THINK OVERALL WE'RE DOWN BRIAN HOW MANY AT THIS POINT IN TERMS OF.
RYAN COYNE, CITY ENGINEER: SERVICE AND.
RYAN COYNE, CITY ENGINEER: THERE'LL BE FILLED IN A FEW WEEKS, SO WE WERE IN OUR.
RYAN COYNE, CITY ENGINEER: SECOND AND THIRD INTERVIEWS THIS WEEK AND WE'RE GOING TO FILL THOSE, SO I THINK SIX IS A NUMBER AND THE OTHER IF IT SHOWS 10 IT WAS FROM THAT EMPLOYEE REALLOCATION OUT OF THE RACK INTO THE DV W.
RYAN COYNE, CITY ENGINEER: THING.
JOE FAZZINO, CITY COMPTROLLER: YEAH WE WERE THERE WERE, I MEAN MAYBE I CAN GIVE YOU A BETTER BREAKDOWN OF ALL THE DIFFERENT W POSITIONS.
JOE FAZZINO, CITY COMPTROLLER: SOMEWHERE MORE CONCISE JUST TO SHOW YOU THAT IT'S WHAT THE ACTUAL NUMBER WAS BUT YEAH I THOUGHT IT WAS SIX OR SEVEN BUT IT'S SIX POSITIONS THAT ARE THAT WE'RE DOWN AT THE MOMENT BUT.
JOE FAZZINO, CITY COMPTROLLER: WILL BE FILLED BY THE END OF THE YEAR, THERE IS NO INCREASE IN THE BUDGET YEAR OVER YEAR IN TERMS OF POSITIONS.
JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: THAT'S VERY HELPFUL THANK YOU YEP.
JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: RYAN, I HAVE A QUESTION ON PAGE 365 WHEN YOU LIST THE 2021 ACCOMPLISHMENTS WHY ISN'T THE MIRACLE AT RYE WRECK ATTRIBUTED TO YOUR STAFF.

RYAN COYNE, CITY ENGINEER: THE PRIDE THAT THEY TAKE IN THE WORK YOU KNOW EVERY DAY IT'S SOMETHING THAT WE AS A DEPARTMENT HAVEN'T REALLY TAKEN ON.
RYAN COYNE, CITY ENGINEER: SOMETHING THAT LARGE SO.
RYAN COYNE, CITY ENGINEER: YOU WILL SEE THAT IN NEXT YEAR'S ACCOMPLISH AND HIGHLIGHTS.
JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: TO BE THERE MAY.
JOE FAZZINO, CITY COMPTROLLER: BE LIKE FIVE OTHER DEPARTMENTS TO CREDIT FOR THAT PROJECT, BESIDES RYAN'S TOO SO THAT'S PART OF THE ISSUE AS WELL, BUT.
JOE FAZZINO, CITY COMPTROLLER: IT'S IN THERE SOMEWHERE IN THE BUDGET.
JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: LET'S HAVE A WHOLE PAGE OF NAMES THAT DID THAT PAGES I DON'T CARE LET'S MAKE SURE WE GET EVERYBODY IN THERE.
GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: AND I KNOW, WHILE WE'RE I MEAN SINCE WE'RE ON THE BUDGET DISCUSSION AND I'M NOT SURE HOW WE WOULD EVER QUANTIFY THIS BUT.
GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: YOU KNOW, CERTAINLY DURING THE LAST 12 MONTHS AND I KNOW IN SOME OF THE THINGS WE'RE LOOKING AT DOING GOING FORWARD RYAN HAS BEEN LOOKING AT WAYS TO UTILIZE.
GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: OUR STAFF BECAUSE, OBVIOUSLY, OUR STAFF EXPENSES IS A BAKED IN COST AND TO THE EXTENT THAT WE'RE ABLE TO USE THEM MORE EFFICIENTLY AND TO DO THINGS LIKE THIS.
GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: IS IS SIGNIFICANTLY BETTER FOR THE CITY AND THE TAXPAYER IN THE RESIDENCE FINANCIALLY IT'S ALSO FROM A FROM A MORALE STANDPOINT AND A PRIDE STANDPOINT, IT IS IT'S A SIGNIFICANT.
GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: UNDERTAKING IS NOT THE RIGHT WORD IS A SIGNIFICANT ACHIEVEMENT BECAUSE THEY ALL HAVE SOMETHING TO SHOW FOR IT, SO WHEN YOU'RE LOOKING AT THE BATTING CAGE.
GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: OUT OF DISCO THAT WAS BUILT THE SUMMER, WHEN YOU LOOK AT WHAT THEY'VE DONE WITH REC PARK WITH A LOOK WHAT THEY'VE DONE WITH THE AMPHITHEATER.
GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: FROM A TAXPAYER STANDPOINT AND ATTACH RATE STANDPOINT, IT IS A HOME RUN NO PUN INTENDED, BUT IT IS ALSO A SIGNIFICANT ACHIEVEMENT FROM MORALE STANDPOINT AND KUDOS TO RYAN, FOR YOU KNOW, FOR BOTH OF THOSE.
JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: HERE HERE.
JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: AWESOME AND I KNOW IT'S STILL IN PROGRESS RIGHT SO TO YOUR POINT RYAN THERE'S STILL STUFF HAPPENING AT BOTH IT DOES BRO AND LOOKING AT GAGLIANO WE'RE LOOKING AT IRAQ SO IT'S JUST IT'S GREAT TO SEE RIGHT EVEN.
JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: YOU KNOW I DROPPED MY KIDS OFF MY ONE KID WHO'S LEFT AT MIDLAND.
JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: AND THEY WERE OUT LIKE WORKING ON THAT PATH, YOU KNOW THAT THEY'RE STILL CREATING AROUND THE WHOLE PARK AND IT'S JUST IT'S AWESOME BUT IT'S JUST A REALLY AND IT WAS GREAT EVEN I THINK SOME PEOPLE I WAS OUT THERE FOR THE TURKEY TROT LIKE NOT RUNNING LET'S BE HONEST, I WAS VOLUNTEERING.
[01:10:04]
JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: BUT THIS SATURDAY, AND IT WAS JUST SO FUN TO SEE, LIKE SO MANY PEOPLE SORT OF REDISCOVERING IRAQ WHEN THEY SHOWED UP THERE, SO IT'S JUST. JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: YOU KNOW THE PAVILION THE UPPER PAVILION WAS SORT OF WHERE THE FINISH LINE WAS, AND IT WAS JUST REALLY, REALLY COOL SO I'M GLAD WE GOT TO SHOW IT OFF TO A BUNCH OF PEOPLE BECAUSE IT'S WORTHY OF IT, I HAVE A QUESTION ABOUT SOMEWHERE ELSE IN THE BUDGET, BUT I DON'T WANT TO TAKE US OFF.
BEN STACKS RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: CAN I.
BEN STACKS RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: ASK A QUESTION ABOUT THIS PARTICULAR AREA, FIRST, I MEAN YEAH I MEAN RYAN, I THINK YOU GUYS HAVE DONE A FANTASTIC JOB, OBVIOUSLY, AND YOU KNOW KUDOS TO YOU AND YOUR WHOLE TEAM I THINK THAT'S GREAT, BUT MY QUESTION IS REALLY ABOUT WHAT WE'RE ABOUT TO EMBARK ON IN TERMS OF OUR CAP X PROGRAM.
BEN STACKS RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: THE AMOUNT OF WORK THAT'S COMING AT YOU GUYS, AND THIS IS KIND OF AN OPEN ENDED QUESTION, BUT LIKE YOU FEEL THAT YOU'RE ADEQUATELY BUDGETED AND STAFFED FOR EVERYTHING THAT'S COMING AT YOU, BECAUSE IT'S DAUNTING AND, IN MY OPINION, SO.
BEN STACKS RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: JUST TO MAYBE GREG YOU CAN JUMP INTO, BUT I JUST YOU KNOW I WORRY THAT THERE'S A TON OF WORK COMING DOWN THE ROAD.
RYAN COYNE, CITY ENGINEER: YEAH BUT THERE, THERE IS, YOU KNOW EAT WE DID ADD AN ASSISTANT.
RYAN COYNE, CITY ENGINEER: SUPERINTENDENT IN THE DEPARTMENT WHICH IS ERIC HAS BEEN A HUGE HELP VERY CAPABLE.
RYAN COYNE, CITY ENGINEER: SO THAT TAKES A LOT OF THE WORKLOAD OFF OF ME AND WITH WITH MANY OF THESE CAPITAL PROJECTS.
RYAN COYNE, CITY ENGINEER: INCORPORATED IN THAT PROJECT IS GOING TO BE THE USE OF CONSULTANTS FOR THINGS LIKE CONSTRUCTION, I MEAN I THERE'S NO WAY THAT WE COULD TAKE ON WHAT WE'RE DOING IN HOUSE YOU KNOW WITH WITH BUILDING CONSTRUCTIONS AND.
RYAN COYNE, CITY ENGINEER: EVEN A LOT OF SEWER PROJECTS SO.
RYAN COYNE, CITY ENGINEER: I THINK WE'RE GOOD IT'S A TON OF WORK WE'RE LOOKING FORWARD TO IT.
RYAN COYNE, CITY ENGINEER: AND YOU KNOW WE'LL BE FINE THAT BEING SAID, YOU WANT TO THROW A COUPLE MORE GUYS, I MEAN I'M NOT GONNA I'M NOT GOING TO TURN THEM AWAY.
RYAN COYNE, CITY ENGINEER: GREG THAT WAS A JOKE, BUT UM.
RYAN COYNE, CITY ENGINEER: YEAH I THINK WE'LL BE FINE WILL BE GOOD LOOKING FORWARD TO, TO GET THEM ALL DONE.
JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: A RELATED QUESTION, PERHAPS, AND NOT IN RYAN'S DEPARTMENT, BUT GREG MAYBE YOU CAN HELP WITH THIS, A A PRESSURE POINT, IT HAS BEEN THE BUILDING DEPARTMENT.
JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: AND I KNOW YOU'VE MADE SOME CHANGES IN STAFFING THERE, I APPRECIATE THAT, WHERE WE'LL BE LOOKING FOR AN ASSISTANT CITY PLANNER WHICH SHOULD MAKE CHRISTIANS LIFE HE'S HERE BUT THERE'S A KIND OF.
JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: THERE THERE'S THERE'S PRESSURE ON OUR INSPECTION CAPABILITIES AS WELL, AND THAT HAS BEEN INCREASED WITH POST IT TO WORK AND I'M WONDERING HOW WE'RE SITUATED, THEY ARE.
GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: GOING INTO 2020 WELL IF YOU'LL IF YOU'LL NOTICE AND I DON'T HAVE IT, BUT NUMBERS IN FRONT OF ME, JOE MAY BE ABLE TO FIND THEM PRETTY QUICKLY, BUT WE ARE ONE OF THE THINGS THAT THIS IS A CAME OUT OF CHRISTIAN AND AND.
GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: AND CARRY IN THEIR RECOMMENDATIONS FOR THIS BUDGET WE ARE INCREASING OUR EXPENDITURES FOR OUTSIDE CONSULTANTS IN THE BUILDING DEPARTMENT.
GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: SPIT FOR TWO AREAS, BUT SPECIFICALLY FOR ENGINEERING WORK ON ON BUILDING PROJECTS, AND THIS IS NOT TO REPLACE A BUILDING INSPECTOR, BUT RATHER WHEN THERE IS AN ENGINEERING, WHERE THERE IS ENGINEERING REVIEW THAT NEEDS TO BE DONE.
GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: TO BE ABLE TO HAVE OUTSIDE STAFFING THAT CAN DO THAT, OF WHICH THE BUILDING INSPECTOR, WILL BE ABLE TO RELY ON.
GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: YOU KNOW PROJECTS IN THE CITY, YOU KNOW WHETHER IT'S INDIVIDUAL HOMES OR POST IDA HOUSE LISTINGS AND THE LIGHT CERTAINLY HAVE GOTTEN MUCH MORE COMPLICATED AND.
GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: YOU KNOW, AND THE END THE NATURE OF THE PROJECTS THAT ARE BEING DONE IN TOWN BY HOMEOWNERS HAVE GOTTEN MORE COMPLICATED SO WE'RE GOING TO THIS YEAR AND JOE WE TALKING $200,000 QUARTER OF A MILLION DOLLARS.
JOE FAZZINO, CITY COMPTROLLER: IT'S ABOUT $200,000 I WAS TRYING TO GET THE EXACT NUMBER FOR YOU, BUT I WANT TO SAY 200,000.
GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: I THINK THAT IS BEING ADDED AGAIN TO GIVE THE BUILDING INSPECTORS MORE BANDWIDTH TO DO.
GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: TRADITIONAL ONSITE WORK AND THEY'RE NOT HAVING TO ACTUALLY DO ALL THE ENGINEERING REVIEWS THEMSELVES AND THAT'S AND THAT'S ONE STEP THE OTHER STEP AS YOU POINT OUT, IS TO BRING INTO THE SYSTEM PLANNER.
GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: AND EVEN THOUGH THAT'S IN THE PLANNING DEPARTMENT, YOU KNOW, KEEPING IN MIND THAT CHRISTIAN IS WEARING TWO HATS, AS THE ADMINISTRATOR RUNNING.
GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: THE BUILDING DEPARTMENT, HE NEEDS HE NEEDS THAT ASSISTANCE, AND SO I THINK THAT THAT'S ALSO GOING TO GIVE THE BUILDING DEPARTMENT, YOU KNOW MORE INTENTION, YOU KNOW, FOR SOME OF THESE MORE CHALLENGING PROJECTS.
[01:15:09]
JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: AND, AND THE ADDITIONAL CONSULTING COST, I ASSUME THAT WE IF WE'VE WORKED THROUGH THE VIRTUES OR NOT HAVE HIRING IN THE CAPACITY OURSELVES ON A PERMANENT BASIS AS AS OPPOSED TO HAVING. JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: WHAT I WOULD EXPECT TO BE TRANSPARENT, INCREASING CONSULTING COST.
GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: YES, YES, WE WE WERE GOING TO BE IT WE BELIEVE CHRISTIAN BELIEVES IT'S MORE COST EFFECTIVE, AS WELL AS FROM A TIMING RESPONSIVENESS STANDPOINT.
GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: IS MUCH BETTER THAN HAVING YOU KNOW YOU THINK OF IT THIS WAY, A $200,000 AD IS REALLY MAYBE ONE AND A HALF FTS WHEN YOU CONSIDER BENEFITS IN THE LIFE SO.
GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: THE FEELING IS IT'S GOING TO BE MORE COST EFFECTIVE, AS WELL AS IT GIVES IT LEVERAGES US TO A GREATER EXTENT, THAT WE WOULD, IF WE BROUGHT IN ONE OR YOU KNOW MORE OF OUR OWN ENGINEERS.
THANK YOU.
JOE FAZZINO, CITY COMPTROLLER: THE ACTUAL NUMBERS $180,000 OKAY.
GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: THE OTHER THING I SHOULD ADD, IS WE'RE ALSO DOING THIS, AS IT RELATES TO THE NEW SEWER LATERAL LAW AND THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THOSE INSPECTIONS SO THOSE ARE ACTUALLY GOING TO BE DONE, THOSE WHAT THAT THAT THE WORK IS DONE BY THE OR THE CERTIFICATION BY A PLUMBER, BUT HAS BEEN REVIEWED.
GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: BY BY A CONSULTANT, AND THAT THAT'S FULL COST RECOVERY FOR THAT THAT'LL BE INCLUDED IN THE PERMIT FEE.
JOE FAZZINO, CITY COMPTROLLER: BUT TODAY $70,000 OF REVENUE FOR THAT IN 2022.
JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: JULIE, YOU, YOU HAD A QUESTION AND THEN UNRELATED AREA AS AS AN AND I HAVE ONE.
JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: SUPER MINOR IT'S JUST ON PAGE 375 OR CONTRACT SERVICES AS WE'RE TALKING ABOUT CONTRACT SERVICES.
JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: ANIMAL CONTROL SERVICES WENT IS GOING WAY DOWN AND THE SQUARE HOUSE IS GOING WAY UP SO UNLESS CREATING A PET MOTEL AT THE SQUARE HOUSE I'M JUST TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHAT.
JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: THAT'S ALL ABOUT.
JOE FAZZINO, CITY COMPTROLLER: THIS SO ANIMAL CONTROL SERVICES ACTUALLY THE FORECAST THE BUDGET IT, THIS IS THE REVISED BUDGET LINE IT'S NOT THE ORIGINAL BUDGET BUT.
JOE FAZZINO, CITY COMPTROLLER: SO THE YEAR TO YEAR FOR THIS ANIMAL CONTROL GOES UP ABOUT 3% EVERY YEAR THAT'S THEIR NUMBER, THEY GIVE US A FIXED NUMBER, THE BUDGET FOR 21 IS SHOWING THE ROLLOVER FUNDS FROM 20.
JOE FAZZINO, CITY COMPTROLLER: TO COVER EXPENSES SO SOMETIMES THAT'S A GOOD QUESTION, NOBODY EVER LOOKS AT THIS PAGE ACTUALLY SO THE OVERALL INCREASE IS ABOUT.
JOE FAZZINO, CITY COMPTROLLER: $450 ROUGHLY OR WHATEVER THAT NUMBER IS ME $480 YEAR OVER YEAR FORECAST VERSUS BUDGET AND THE SQUARE HOUSE.
JOE FAZZINO, CITY COMPTROLLER: THE BUDGET FOR I HAVE TO SEE WHY IT WENT UP, FOR I THINK THEY HAD SOME ADDITIONAL WORK BEING DONE ON THE OUTSIDE OF THE BUILDING, I CAN GET YOU MORE SPECIFIC NUMBERS ON THAT.
JOE FAZZINO, CITY COMPTROLLER: FOR 20 TO.
JULIE SOUZA RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: GO JUST CURIOUS WITH THAT WAS THERE.
GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: WE GO, YOU CAN HAVE THAT AVAILABLE FOR WEDNESDAY RIGHT.

CAROLINA JOHNSON RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: SINCE WE'RE LOOKING AT THAT PAGE I SEE EMAS.
CAROLINA JOHNSON RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: AND I SEE.
CAROLINA JOHNSON RYE CITY COUNCIL MEMBER: ALMOST 7% DOWN ON THE BUDGET FOR YOU, MISS FOR NEXT YEAR.
JOE FAZZINO, CITY COMPTROLLER: YEAH SO AGAIN, WE AT THE COUNCIL APPROVED TO ADDITIONAL $50,000 FOR JUST THIS YEAR.
JOE FAZZINO, CITY COMPTROLLER: AND SO THAT'S WHY THE NUMBER ACTUALLY GOES DOWN THE OVERALL INCREASE, SO WE HAD BUDGETED TO 47, SO IT IS GOING UP ABOUT $30,000 BUDGET TO BUDGET THE TO PITCH AGAIN THE 21 BUDGET IS THE 297 INCLUSIVE OF THE 50,000 THAT WAS ADDED TO IT.
JOE FAZZINO, CITY COMPTROLLER: BY COUNCIL RESOLUTION AND SO IT'S BASICALLY 247 VS 277, SO IT IS GOING UP THANK YOU GOOD.
JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: QUESTION AND WE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO ANSWER IT THIS EVENING.

[01:20:04]
JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: LEVEL AND I'M NOT SURE GREG JOE IF YOU'RE ABLE TO ANSWER THIS I ASKED KRISTEN EARLIER IN THE DAY AND SHE WAS GOING TO LOOK INTO IT, BUT I JUST WANTED IT OUT THERE AS QUESTION. GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: WE'LL WE'LL WORK ON THAT BETWEEN NOW AND WEDNESDAY, I THOUGHT MY HEAD I DON'T HAVE A GOOD ANSWER TO THAT.
JOE FAZZINO, CITY COMPTROLLER: YEAH I MEAN, I BELIEVE THE FORECAST FOR 21 IS JUST THAT WE'RE FORECASTING, WHATEVER THE BUDGET WAS, AND I CAN CHECK QUICKLY, WHILE WE'RE HERE ON THE DEPTH OF THE $20,000 BUT I WON'T TAKE VERY LONG, I CAN PULL THAT UP PRETTY QUICKLY.
JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: WE HAD CERTAINLY ASKED FOR MORE RESOURCE, BECAUSE THEY WERE MATTERS THAT WERE MOVING SLOWLY AND.
JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: THE INCREASE MAY BE ATTRIBUTABLE TO THAT.
GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: YEAH I MEAN WE DID WE HAVE ADDED I SAY WE KRISTEN HAS ADDED IN THE LAST TWO MONTHS BUT ADDITIONAL ASSISTANT.
SEVERAL DAYS A WEEK.
GREG USRY CITY MANAGER: BUT AGAIN I'M ENJOYING PROBABLY BE WORTHWHILE TO HAVE A MORE FULL SOME DISCUSSION WITH HER AND THEN YEAH WE'LL TALK ABOUT THIS MORE ON ON WEDNESDAY NIGHT.
JOE FAZZINO, CITY COMPTROLLER: SO YEAH AGAIN SO JUST QUICKLY, AGAIN, I GUESS, THIS GETS CONFUSING ON THIS PAGE THE LAW DEPARTMENT PAGE TWO THREE DASH 21 YOU'RE LOOKING AT THE REVISED BUDGET WOULD ROLL OVER A FUNDS FROM A RETAINER FROM.
JOE FAZZINO, CITY COMPTROLLER: BECAUSE WE DIDN'T ROLL A LOT OF FUNDS OVER SO IF YOU'RE LOOKING AT YOU CAN JUMP TO PAGE THREE DASH.
JOE FAZZINO, CITY COMPTROLLER: YES, 114 IF YOU LOOK AT ACTUAL BUDGET THE 2021 ORIGINAL BUDGET COLUMN, IT IS A FLAT BUDGET.
JOE FAZZINO, CITY COMPTROLLER: IT'S 505 AND 21 VERSES 503 IN 22 SO AGAIN THE ADDITIONAL FUNDS THAT ARE SHOWING ON MAIN STREET YES 21 IS AN ENCUMBRANCE THAT ROLLED FORWARD THAT'S WHY THE FORECAST IS NIGH.
JOE FAZZINO, CITY COMPTROLLER: WHY IT'S NOT REVERTING TO 2020 NUMBERS THAT'S DEFINITELY A QUESTION FOR CHRISTIAN CHRISTIAN, BUT OVERALL BUDGET TO BUDGET IT'S FLAT.
JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: AND LOOKING AT THIS PAGE, I SEE THE.
JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: ACTUAL WOULD SAY ACTUALLY QUITE A BIT HIGHER THAN.
JOSH COHN RYE CITY MAYOR: CORRECT ME.
