election offices which is for the moderator the selectmen one of you the treasurer members the board of assessor a member of the board cemetery commissioners member of the board of health members two members of the public library trustees  for three years one for one year which is to replace someone who has moved on to other which celebrity mostly well that was originally mary alice with men who resigned her seat during the year she was not able to complete and someone  a apologize and i just wasn't certain so she just fulfilled that when you term so when she left she had two years left on her term you appointed collectively with the the term to the next annual election which is this year ok and now that would be one year remaining and then town meeting members for all eight precincts some actually only in three precincts three seven and eight we also have single term single filled we have people who have you know it we have at least the minimum in every single case so good with one exception in precinct seven there is a one year term which will be needed to be filled by right ok so  you know eight times twelve is ninety six plus eleven where plus three plus three so it's one hundred ten that's a lot of people it is many of whom are running for reelection and a significant number of people who are first time the le in local elections it's twenty two percent we actually have been as low as twelve yeah so michael typical is about thirty unless there's a question on the agenda and i think we should be very high people too you know because some people think the local government is more relevant to to the citizens than the presidential election in many ways because these people have a say about our local life what do you think my speech yeah i mean i didn't want to i don't  yet we've we've it's actually semi us to do this with which was which was great because we used to have to empty the rum and which is really an inconvenience for those that were in attendance from and say me come up with the idea to strike for idea when we just got on a conference before operation and i'd say services and programs are booming another banner year so we continue to have slightly over two thousand registered individual users of the building however the participation rates are was in fifteen but then in sixteen the number jumped to sixty three thousand six hundred forty so these are the counts of people signing in for events this is always an undercount i should because so many people don't do that but it's the best we can capture i think credible well it's and it relates to our increased program programming for example we've revived and improved  annual health care we've experimented as the first see a way to offer personalized coaching program called vitalized three sixty one area of service expansion is in programming is an annual program at the butler school so for example during school vacation weeks we've started it we've called it intergenerational week and have come up with really creative  the students or for just yes so i can i can give you what we're doing for the a p we've got it all set for the april we've got six different programming six different programs coming from preschool all the way up to high school and this lovely things so i'll be happy to share that with you know we're experiment thing with evening programming so we have some seed funding from our friends organization i just want to give a shout out to our friends our nonprofit support organization because they've been running wonderful fundraisers and very very busy and  diligent about getting us funding so from our friends we have a few programs scheduled for the evenings in the spring so we're going to see how successful they are what it tends to be like and if it's robust we might come back next year and ask for for regular funding for evening programming so in terms of some of the other things accomplished we've completed the first phase of eligibility for membership in the world health organization and the r p age friendly community network and thank you you've been very helpful and supportive needs and some interesting trends the next phase is to have a broader need to survey we hadn't had one done in the council on aging since two thousand and three league of women voters didn't that's a very long time they will do one but the focus will be more on other areas not just you know what a senior center can offer but what what's needed in terms of housing civic engagement other end of the they and other communities and there may be a section of department heads too so we have a grant for the in through the tufts foundation because they they like these type of projects hopefully we'll get a group we have proceed procedures have been clarified and communications have been streamlined for dealing with these difficult cases we need periodic lead to discuss most at risk cases where sponsoring a special program coming up this tuesday for friends and neighbors and i can give you the and i'd also support one another so those and then we've just completed an application for a grant to the cummings foundation and if we if we made the first cut if we get that grant it would give us a part time if you're not successful with this group or park and social we're going to address some of the more serious cases well it it would be it would be wonderful and we knew it and i'm sorry when we get a response  budget peanuts compared to the rest of the film we have one in ten million dollars budget so is there more that we can do for seniors that this is an avenue that we can sort of investment issue resources i'd like to consider it as part of our budget seriously wonderful it's a supplement to this we have such a lot of this would be well no this would be this would be at a different individual different i know but yes there is some what i call the all right oh there's a but we do have a part time social worker as all they have in their lives is the senior center and so we have to recognize that we're going to use agent is turning over and realize that we're supporting that africa schools are always going up but i think we need to do more than what we've done in the past for sea away absolutely and if there's the chance that you won't get this grant i'd like us to consider as aboard this additional resource in the expense for me the thirty five thousand s right we should look at that cost right that's my point of view i don't speak from what i will speak for myself and i am i don't think the community can do any better than the weakest member and the kind of people in the kind of need that you're talking about is we're talking about the weakest folks or people who are in the weakest position maybe not individually weak but so i think anything that we can do needs to be done and by the same token as we've discussed before we're managing under a pop two and a half right we're not managing from override override we're good we're managing under prop two and a half so we have to look where we can find you know this this liquidity to put towards things like this again so i support it we should mention thank you very much we're not that far away from situation we're grateful that we did have the added hours last summer you know we didn't have some summer social work hours we did last summer and that really i mean i have to say  between last summer and i mean the previous summer and last summer we saw our two hundred seventy three percent increase in ability to you know encounters social work encounter so that was very very helpful because  time social worker was able to do a lot more than i could do was a tree irish over the summer and thank you for that so we put in for the full twenty hours for this summer and it still left us with you know a  it's worked out very well we gave our coordinator five more hours and we gave four hours more to our grade seven our higher level administrative assistant so rather than give fourteen hours to a lower level person we really seen a lot more efficiency productivity with using the hours and in management are also responsible for all the processing of parking violations treasury department also works with and provides administrative technical support to the permanent audit committee out of belmont scholarship k the about the treasury's operation where where we're somewhat like the face of the town as a town clerk is we get lots of folks that want to come in and get information and talk to us and so on and paperless solution and online payment services last year we had three thousand eight hundred sixty nine people pay on line terrific how many three thousand eight hundred  sixty nine now may seventh i'm sorry february seventh seventeen we mail seventeen thousand five hundred excise tax bills as of monday we had three thousand one hundred eight we have a bulk rate i think it's around thirty six and some change yeah wouldn't it be nice to be able to implement a system where those who pay online get their bills online too they can ok they can get all this on line ok i think rather than mailing  it so is it demand supply or supply push i mean even if you pay your bill online you still get a paper copy you want to have you can opt out but it's up to the person this is this is all user driven we also had a property tax receive a bill review which resolved for about a six year period which resulted writing off twenty five property tax bill this was a small audit issue by policy and something that we cleaned up we continued with our ongoing program of working with outside legal counsel kopelman page to bring some legal action to collect the most significant piece of the debt was twenty seven point six million shot term on for the light project this to second year that we've implemented the affordable care act where we have to do some federal treasury filing with ha this will still be in place this is not going to go away and then we issued ten ninety five s to all the employees i receive you all have the same thing i've talked to are going to go away right now we're continuing to work with this is to implement the utility billing and collection system and say we're about ninety eight percent there you know we get some little reconciling items within town in the light department but i'd say by may first we should be in good shape for the past three years the trader's department met with the well we can school building treasurer and basically it was myself the town accountant  ppropriate paid items that would cost the town some money last may we got our final m s b a reimbursement we got an audit and from from my perspective the financial end of the finished its responsibilities and well i think that's what they're doing now that you did you don't have to do that they hand over the property to the town yeah to the facilities right and there's a point of reference the amas being reimbursed that system keep yourself focused on the reimbursements you can lose money because once they approve prove bills they move on yet they don't come back which so when you submit reimbursement you need to make sure that you're following through with those reimbursements being made so i would only say whose have a city here you might want to think about there's always a high school building committee but you might want to have another small group the kind of pays attention to the cash submitted to the council office treasurer's office for processing and then submitted his right so i think where we're going to go i think you're right he does need to be a constant monitoring process and that was one of the fee and i say what fifteen grand in legal fees so what you're talking about is the same the same kind of activity that the the town accountants organization which reports to us by the way has to do this five years all right so let me move on to your sort of well as we're moving on to some eighteen goals you know it's going to be a continuation of my paper solution online payments we're right next year so i want to get ahead of that in this kind of an important item last year i mentioned in a similar budget presentation that we were going to issue twenty seven point six million dollars of tax will sho jones town meeting i will request town meeting to deal authorized twenty seven point six million so the cost of the fifty three point seven million dollars bond  did schedule very very important as we move forward with a lot of these major projects the other item from a goal perspective is we've got seventeen point one million dollars so i'm i'm hoping work with you seven that you and jim came to a meeting of the minds of what would be short term and long term not not not not a letter not a town meeting so let me know not to tell me i'm saying that they approve the fifty three seven yes and then subsequently yes you guys decided right what was going to be short term and what was going back on term in the long term was twenty six seven then one hundred one twenty six one in the short term was twenty seven six right plus when we issued it we got a premium of sort of a more than that then what happened was that the blair plan substation was built it's not hooked up to the three substation as yet but my understanding and this is not about numbers is that there's another seven million to spend to do that you know to hook the player plant station up to the three substation then and then we have to increase the voltage on the distribution system and then you can decommission the other three so in terms of the blair pond substation you could argue that it is that it's not it didn't cost twenty six one no you know i think we're getting jim i know yeah i  gushing so let's continue on we were six seventeen eighteen we're going to have our implementation of the parking meter plan that will probably take about six months to kind of smooth have lunch when is the parking  of support role because this project for probably the four times any of us lag of projects we've ever had in the history of the town don't think so move it on these up these are my long term is site and they put forth a twenty three point one million dollars project so there's two projects that are in some sort of stage is the continuation of the belmont you know simple light substation project with the substations what we're going to be doing with a car going to have in center at a site because it is certainly lights and needs but i think they need to be some in point input so you guys can come to some sort of decision we had a facelift in belmont santa probably another two or three years we're going to have facelift and pushing square and then waverly square so the question is with the money come from and then finally hundred ninety nine units pushing villages and nineteen units that's certainly going to have some impact on us so in summary these are decisions to be made that might assist the next generation  on the cost and revenue impact to the town because i don't believe just because i hear we've got new growth that the new growth is going to cost you cover all of that cost because you're looking at  to be made within our community absolutely john and i consider floyd to be a pillar of the community he knows and i start a flood i i see the org chart for the treasury department here yes and for the things that you're talking about it's the board of selectmen doesn't isn't that the case you know that's why you don't mind so you're you're influencing us with this not just meeting it in other words it's something that we have to come up with that it's our responsibility to to to pave the way forward absolutely you know ok and then with regard to the the accountants responsibilities they also report to administration so that's that's on our desk the town account word for us you get a gentleman who i just want to i just want to make sure that people understand the span of control that you have because a lot of it comes back to the board of selectmen it's not necessarily your responsibility and then also on parking mr chairman you asked me to talk to jerry dick out about yeah the parking i did that and they're happy with the sixty dollars family but they don't and they don't  so you know that's all good they they don't necessarily want to go any further we're not going to decide that tonight but are today but you know they're happy with the way it's working out now in his comment on the new parking which they support as well because it encourages turnover on leonard street his his comment is you know that they want to make sure that we that it's communicated as much as it possibly can and i guess that's our goal too and so are you what are the to give a brief overview of what the hell want to do these are wonderful things are primary responsibility has always been and still is in force in a state and local health and environmental regulations and organizational purposes i divided the and the like and that's a bulk of our work that's the meat and potatoes it takes up three of the full time employees that we have we have four point nine one the second category is animal can control the main mandated duty of the animal control officer is rabies and troll and associated animal quarantines animal complaints chicken coop inspections barn inspections wildlife education conflict bridge the resolution for you citizens and wildlife services run ceremony and outreach and counseling and referrals disease control the registered nurse conducts surveillance of youth eases monitors outbreaks flu vaccines clinics emergency preparedness activities food borne illnesses and vet investigations and then there's administration we have one full time public health coordinator who processes the permits for all of our environmental health activities and does the finances and recently has really had to delve into that quite kind of time consuming public records requests we've had nine so far for a fiscal year seventeen one a couple of them have been very of the main ones we we try as much to kind of fan services by apply for and receive and for grants this has passed the school year we apply for mount auburn capacity building grant and that provided ten cells of the social worker and it's being implemented at the senior center because they have room for the the program their other own going france are the largest vendors tobacco control and we're working on updating regulations for many in the tobacco regulations to the board is for well we're not going to allow any health care institutions to hire pharmacies specifically to have tobacco products i mean  there or there are health institutions so we have this this graph or a section of different communities and all the different activities that we're trying to check on you can we do that as a community  other overseas and they did but right now there isn't anybody and that's why we want to put this in so that going to your work and nobody can come into town and offer all these health so star markets can't sell it because they have a pharmacy you  it up last year and so we're going to put this in place because as a preventive as efforts so that if any other as you grow and there's more pharmacies in town they can but convenience stores can't ok i mean that's anything turning on that if i buy a certain one that has eighty three grams of sugar in it which is like twelve teaspoons are you guys working on that now so we're not there are some new labeling requirements for f d a that are coming out that i'll make it easier to read the nutritional value and see what's sugars been added and what hasn't right in that when they say natural that we've done understood before that the state has decided not to put a sugar tax in but when they did it in the several cities in colorado the vote for two or three weeks to go yeah thank you is this something that becoming more prevalent with him yes is becoming popular we don't know how many are out there and we really want to in order to protect them so there's nothing whom the  and the regulation they have they have to have a manure management plant because they are very messy no they're very messy that actually it's not that at all it was long as they're being maintained and the operator the person having the scout he just became an eagle scout he worked all year all over the many things goes out to him bob was a project coordinator and they're just trying to update all the data so it's easier to disseminate the flags and pick them up and work out that's one of the changes to the budget is we took out the line item for clinic vaccine version this we had a quite successful two thousand and fifteen flu clinic through a grant and we tried to replicate it last year and quite frankly it was a dud we had low turnout due to a number of reasons yeah the flu mist wasn't available many of the parents want flu mist for their children we didn't have it they didn't provide it and it was some not very the flu mist wasn't very effective previous year there were long lines there were a lot of advertising pick ups last year and there was a lot of competing programs going on it was the gun by election day the there were there were several town events going on on a very rainy day so we had some competition we still have plentiful going to work with schools and it'll be nineteen years and younger with the free flu vaccine for states but there's so many avenues for people to get their flu vaccine they're not taking advantage of this is something that's going on statewide risk behavior survey for the schools that's available to the superintendent we've been for me this is the youth risk behavior we've done this before right communities but regardless of whether one person is suffering from it or dozens it's imperative that we beef up prevention when you can we do them to support that effort well it's very complicated would be hours of discussion we could talk all day on this we spent copious amounts of hours dwelling on this we hired the consultant to come up with studies she did i wasn't i would have liked some more information we're still working on it but i at this point we just have to hit the ground running i would the board has reviewed most of the information there were waiting to present the final report to them at the next board meeting but like i said it's there's a gap in the town and we've many years in a row we've asked for health educators but there wasn't a wasn't considered need because it's prevention it's hard to measure prevention so if at all possible i mean and there's it's very complicated we don't have boys and girls that we don't have use commission we don't have a wellness corner would be awesome i really think the town should take a proactive approach think of it as empowering i think of education that this is the state somehow voters yet there like they are like that so you are you governed by the state board of health somehow or we i mean are you just out there you're not just out there you you're elected i understand that but  who regulates you we don't regulate the master the powers towns to decide which avenue to take for their representation ok ok and then you come to us because you're dependent on us for the budget that is that right in then you also apply for grants do you have a grant writing capability in the department we didn't know you know it does you know we've talked in the  contract service or part time service that is organized around all of the various groups that exist within state federal government we have different apartment squeezing it and you can hire people to do that but that's no point y you know on sort of understanding what all of the available grids that are out there and making certain that we're taking full advantage of the supplying you know whether you need probably need expertise in different areas but it's not something we can do for the madison or resort yeah ok so let's think about link in to what they're doing and so for example are you going to be at the meeting next thursday so if you guys are coordinating that need that us ok thank you and you know i just i'm a common and you commission that you've mentioned that and  since i've been on the board i've been talking about we haven't gotten off the ground it's partly my fault and others you know one point we defunded you commission i can't remember when we all went where there was a member of the border remember the war committee and it was unfortunate we just defund it and  i think our kids in town are a good youth in town or are good kids but there has to be a more effective way to channel their energies and i've been talking to the religious council times leadership there i've mentioned it i've mentioned it to others i'd love to have an opportunity just chat with you about that how do we perhaps not within our current budget maybe it's outside of a budget sort of organizing in around some type of the youth commission with in town to channel become better at providing prevention materials on our website because we need to update that we're going to delve into well private well regulations this is an area that man here's a quiz question what does fog stand for fats oil's increases so we would need to help the elf office of community development and amend our hog regulations and do some outreach to the restaurants to processed commands the six gentlemen that here have applied for the billings disposition so this is their introduction to the bike they're all white for the position so we'll see how many of them want to one thing i want to touch on that both now and angela have touched on is the cooperation between departments so we're involved in the safe and healthy healthy housing task force and the  that was the two positions the federal government paid for the last two years for a few years running we that's helped us with a little bit of our staffing issues we've also been able to party that was issued was nine hundred thirty seven three decades three decades was when we found i found something in an old file that there were they were supposed to put in place three decades ago it's been one of the things  ask so are those rules and regulations personnel related or are they rules and regulations of the department governing public activities there is it covers everything from when you were supposed to work out what rules you have to follow you know your roles and responsibilities and internal operations yes ok no it's yeah it's always something with h r h r yeah happy but there's two more expected retirement by the time they get drugs as normally as the cademy ten weeks so they get out there's a one week vacation week they don't go to the gallery so they'll be back here so so as we try and get one of the things it takes time is the real time process for the time we file the paperwork with the retirement board with somebody else like on disability it takes notify the chair in the war committee that you know where we are from where you guys are here so we don't like surprises and right there's a need here and i was here as well with vice chair so what's traditionally happened a long time ago was we would put attention put the one of me on notice that we had issues but really magnitude we don't know the magnitude of actually get closer to the individual you know to the end of the fiscal year so that's who will actually kind of know the scope it buys them a chance to become sober and straighten things out sadly many times we go to the same house or the same place or have the same person multiple times in the last time when they actually pass away and die it was a time issue we weren't notified some of the and so there's been many horror stories about people who were sober for a long time go back and use they used the same strength they did when influence it was written by a professor from stanford and they were trying to get the students at stanford to stop binge drinking and what they did was they informed them of all the things that were terrible about binge drinking and then six months later they followed up with a survey and they found out that all the students knew what was wrong with binge drinking but no one stopped into drinking and so they came back with another idea and they they took a film of what somebody looks like male and female after the it had ten shots and then they put that out you know in the community in the binge drinking drop forty percent and so i think transports to medicare with the medicare readers and then reduce the medicare rate for transports so we charge above medicare right now so private insurance pays more just like every other health came you know to this meeting you mentioned the coachs that that we were going to get yes we were replacing them kind of you know five this year you know the number was different are you doing that again this year so residents with library cards which represents about sixteen thousand people we had a six percent increase in overall circulation l'abri patients last year by five hundred and sixty five thousand items from the library making twenty sixteen one of the highest in recent years probably top three in the last twenty years we had a thirty three percent increase in our electronic media circulation page live in patients down of the thirty six thousand e books audio books movies and the life of thirty percent increase in overall program participation so eighteen thousand children teens and adults attended six hundred thirty concert story times clubs cooking demonstrations and other laboratory and another twenty three thousand seven hundred people attended eight hundred fifty nine meetings held the library which represented a twenty one percent increase we had an eleven percent increase in overall questions answered by reference librarians bring that number to their forty thousand  i'm just a couple of overall highlights of our budget summary so the share a modest ask just an increase of one point one nine percent through the third and it mostly operates just increased costs so we have a four and a half percent increase in the cost of gas natural gas for the building a four and a half percent increase for our materials that's the books movies all the electronic resources that we purchase as those costs are increasing and otherwise not much not much in terms of  opportunity to have an internship it's a great way to accent the folks coming up in the field and get some service out of them help them or fill their requirements often we have to turn down those requests because of the union our union will say that they would like their future colleagues to be paid as opposed to a free internship so we've we've asked for just a modest forty three hundred dollars value of the new substation that's been put in place you know so we have doing a lot of that yes and so we can go out to a horton thought it absolutely so we're working working on that now so getting that going and the only  other we had a reclassification of our system technician position which i addressed last year with you but that was put in place so that's coming into effect for the first time fully this year's budget week this past year we complete our annual survey cation process as usual  have here's a possibility that could go up where we don't know at this point so but that's usually a three year contract if there is going to affect so we have bits out of the street now so i don't expect a dramatic any kind of dramatic increase at all so ok the answer to this question i ask a lot of questions that i know the answer to but the board is of assessors is elected in your government by mass general law that's correct you not report to the to the board of selectmen but you you cut your funded by by number and i fully staff but as we all know that could change tomorrow but i feel pretty pretty good saying that because it's the first time that i've been here that we've been able to attain that and  but we as as we know too there's a number of things number of developments throughout the town that are going on and obviously that number as you will see back and the area of the budget at one time we're at fifty six so forty eight is below that number and i tried myself and obviously the department was doing a good job in providing service to our community and the service level that we provide today obviously is going to be impacted going forward so i just want to put that out there make sure that people understand that if you look at the level of service we provide today it may be different  going forward and we just want to make sure people understand that and what that may be increasing the number of offices that this one office that we have four hundred additional residences yeah you know so some of the as you know the department is broken down into seven different divisions starting with the ministration when you have your patrol which is as we know as the backbone of the department that's what people see that's the uniformed branch and then we have records detectives detectives there are groups that investigate any major crimes that are committed in the town and also reported through a residence and then we have traffic which we all know is a major piece of what we do as well through the you know complaints on speeding car parking issues and things like that that what we've done a lot of as as you're well aware of community and then we have joint community publics communication the end leaves that group as you know but as i said we it's pretty flat as far as the overall budget  recent and i don't know how many of you are aware but there was an article in the paper we had the recent training down there over the fabrication that at the high school through again the ship at the school they were we were able to utilize the space we brought offices in from around the commonwealth and i was happy to be there both at the end of the bolt sessions and people are very very pleased and excited and when people go to training and they tell you they want more of this training that's a good thing and that's what the response was but again to our school resource officer she's been doing a great job she's been very active and and that position  week his dad just said that he's on patrol now yes yes he's doing his f t l program once they complete the academy piece then what we do is we assign them with veteran offices for a twelve week period on the different shifts so that they can get an april but we saw our in need and we identified the need because of some of the positions that expressly with dealing with domestic violence and juvenile issues and we looked at that position and we created a position within the crease any number of people but we felt with his you know we looked at the circumstances that we were addressing as a department and we felt that we needed to focus on this position and what the calls were getting so we made this dozen they did him in this position to help and it's been a great success so this point so what do you call them is it that is the juvenile domestic violence sometimes in what the circumstances that may happen at night and that child may be going to school the next day without any and from you know so we're trying to keep those things so when when you say juvenile domestic violence that's one that's one this is that's one phrase or it's two different issues judenrein issues two different issue different issues and then with regard to the juvenile issues is there a linkage to learning profile have you found that are you are you doing anything along those lines or not but what we're doing is we want to make sure we're supporting both the family and the juveniles you know whenever i think about that as i said we saw that that i think this is a position that we should most awfully look to expand upon because it is there is a lot of work there and to that point like i said i would like to see that position  what they idea behind it you have one at the high school one of the middle school because again you know we want to try and build those bridges before we get to the high school so right now officer melissa goes between both chantry is focused on the high school because that's where we feel the need is right now but i could see and i know the assistant chief has worked with her on a number of things i mean in today's world what we try and do is be proactive in  just don't pull them out of the air i mean we supply information and then the f b i is the one that comes up with these numbers that they feel to put putting the information in as far as what you communicate the size of your have a big part of what they are looking at now is more regionalizing you know getting the most bang for their buck which is understandable and but they are there is what we're going to be like i said we're going  talking further about it we've been talking about centralizing a resource to you know to write grants would you have in favor of that almost awfully i mean that if you know whatever help we can get to make it work i'm all for i'm all for shouldn't ask and then also for the public if you're org chart the police department reports to the board of selectmen yes yes that's that's the way it works you know because some of the other departments are publicly elected and subject to mass and changes that we see not only impacting here but in fact in cross country so we try and be proactive with training and things like that you know right now there's a lot of a lot of issues out there within the world that are going on which women cybersecurity is that's something that we look at and there's all that stuff so you know we have big proponents of training anything we see that we need we're getting people out there and getting them trained and it's you can see it's a pretty large sum of money on a budget but it's something that i truly believe again to be proactive and to be ready for these because as we all know technologies a huge piece of what we do you just read about it but to be able to make sure that we're up to speed up to speed and you know have the equipment in the materials that we need to do it i think would be a huge is our current id department there's a lot of and i'm please don't get me wrong i'm not knocking they right in his team they do a great job but to be specific in the law enforcement  because the thing is this as we have an example right here within our budget if you remember when the uplands started there was a problem with some demonstrators down there on on the land and we ended up a rresting fourteen that the first day second day of the demonstration now the way the changes in the law have occurred we need to capture that video and it takes of the booking process of the booking process know the major couple projects working group that's been forming lines we have pointed out as you remember and so we're looking at this hope you'll have a present presentation a town meeting presentation this board for us and then tell me in terms of thoughts about how we move forward i miss they're making it work i mean the conditions we have nothing but admiration and respect for the men and women in the know and i know we appreciate that and we know that but like  you mentioned in previous budget at the last meeting on monday the memorial day parade last year was rescheduled to difficult weather events and so  to be corrected but i don't want tails wagging the dog and floyd and phyllis filled me in on what happened at the meeting that i have the opec actual report updated k m s is the best choice to do that since they've done it in the past ok and so the idea is that we will go ahead an update the two thousand and sixteen zero pub report but coming right on the heels of that will be the r p i spoke to philip about it yesterday you're working on it and you have a few more things to experience as of july first two thousand and seventeen right and we need to do that because the open accounting is seventy that were the regular right in the end so my concern was you know we had we had ralph here saying he had the breakthrough he's ready to go we have proved it and i thought somehow that that had been overcome by events the tail was wagging the dog and we were going to do two thousand and sixteen and then two years from now we were going to implement the feature an overview of the broad agenda for criminal justice reform in twenty seventeen twenty eight hundred legislative session is going to be on tomorrow more chill levon tomorrow from one to two thirty p m in the bomb one town hall auditorium one to two thirty ok and then there is also a fundraiser at connelly's on a sunday for oh my jim well there was this fire in grove street which i think it was like a three alarm fire wasn't it was a pretty big fire and  that's at four o'clock and i just want to mention that a lot of people who were in in that situation did not have renter's insurance and so that's really unfortunate and i encourage people to this sort of think about
