well michelle had done an excellent job in terms of the organization of it the other thing is that i would like to point out is that there were a lot of other people contributed to it is there was a way in front of the stage and it's hard to explain but there bridge in that all that work was done by the public works department under the cooperate paving program and they took a lot of pride in what they had done there and at the end it really turned out well one of the things that was there were a couple who trucks and would point out is that there's a whole series of concerts that are playing for the summer you know one of the challenges that the council gave to the rec department was if we build the build the theater we want to see that it be programmed to movies so there's a series of movies that will be be held at the at the stage so that all of them went well if i could just say something i think it was really wonderful and it seemed like it was well attended and trouble with any of the issues or potential issues that the consumption and i thought it was a wonderful and one thing that i was a little concerned about the wall where the railing incorporates all of the facilities that may eventually end up on this site so that they go through that approval process once as opposed to multiple times as they begin to develop the property the other  wanted to offer them was access to the fire department in the police department for employees at this early stage as opposed to waiting until the plane gets a little bit more firm and then it becomes a little bit more difficult to address their needs one of the things that we did point out to them that in the past that peter spencer council has waived the building permit beyond school district buildings the only piece that we end up collecting would put that on an agenda to approve the other the other thing that we talked about was if you look at how the building is sited on this piece of property that red line represents the high tension line that passes through the township passes through the property and their intention is to have that that school facility located on the bottom end of that triangle formed by east big merger roads that are church in the power of mine and one of the things that you know there is when we when we divided this property up we did it simply to facilitate moving ahead with  acquisition in that line wasn't based upon anything one of these that i suggested to them was that we need to sit down and consider you know do we need to adjust that line does it make more sense for the school district to own the property you know to in essence great concern to us is that they're bogus and understandably so it's been on the building it has not been on the off site improvements that are necessary for this site nor the implications of what that where that driveways located and what is its status as a private or a public road so one of the areas of course that we are looking at having addressed is the entrance way off of the murray road on to the site know one of the things that we know from the location of the existing highschool and what happens there twice a day is because of those lucky in terms of traffic is backed up terribly on the road and where it would seem to make sense that you would either have a left hand turning lane into the site or a roundabout even at that site the difficulty that you have is that you have all these homes located on the other side of the street so you could imagine the difficulty that you would have coming out of any one of these driveways when school was either in the morning when people were arriving to the school site and attempting to make a left turn out of your driveway so you know i think there's a that's a challenge of the other challenge is up on the top end of the property because they want to use that connection that exists point and this to me is we don't know what now to be able to be taking these decisions without the input from a traffic engineer so one of the things that came out of that meeting is that we've asked mike my degree to provide a hire and had they themselves hired trap again and rather the spend public money twice it probably makes more sense to get someone that we both have confidence in in terms of addressing those issues so the other thing that we talked about is that there's a number of opportunities for structure of the storm water management public utilities we've asked them to tell us whether or not they have a desire or need space at the clubhouse so the food to give back is with that and there may be other priscilla d's that that we could we could share the one thing that i didn't encourage them is that we need to find a way to get across this road that w so that the two sites are actually tied together so that you could if you look at their site play and they actually have the kind of cart path kind of thing they have around the outside of their properties we need to find a way to get people from one side of the property to the other it's my intention in i think ryan's going to come with me to go to that meeting to get some additional information about what their planes are  lane i'm a member of the washing chapter of a group called fair districts p a it's a group which seeks to abolish gerrymandering and pennsylvania to that and we support two bills currently before the state legislature senate bill twenty two and house bill seven twenty two is everyone familiar with those bill say they would they would establish an independent commission for democrats four republicans and three and affiliated or members of smaller party members who would then  accomplish the redistricting hopefully after twenty twenty and i'm here because i'm asking the town council to adopt a resolution supporting those bills where the purpose being to encourage our state legislators to also support those bills currently gerrymandering clearly favors the republicans but that changes you have only to look at jack murtha's old district to see how democrats have done the same thing so our purpose is to have the voters select their legislators rather than having  the school district in townships solicitor the the assessment office the county's solicitor agreement on what this value should be and if you go through definitive recommendation with more they had proposed to kmart to set the value of six million five hundred thousand more is coming back and with a number of six million three hundred thousand valley road is it approaches developer country club we have a slide that is occurring on the road and this picture doesn't do it justice but this hillside which is the the township attempt to destabilize back hundred eighty s is beginning to give away again and you if you go out to the road you'll see cracking on the road but you also if you go look down over the hill where you will see cracking to the curb down the entire exactly is happening out there and also to help us in the sign a solution for the problem in the meantime one of the things that's been done it is that the road is not restricted to one lane traffic  passes right over where we need to be working and so it we need to be relocated to the other side of the street they are evaluating that right now in terms of what the cost would be one of the things that they're suggesting is that they may be willing to actually take that going underground and avoid what he now additional holes there so we'll see what happens when they go out on to the site you can see these trees are leaning back into the line in the because of the hill was actually losing power to then to their facility in addition that we've been in contact with the country club in fact we have another meeting tomorrow at ten o'clock for the country club to talk to them about what's happening here an access that suitable for day to day use out of that site the other thing we're asking is this the thirty three foot wide right away to do this work and we don't know what the nature of the work is completely yet but to do this work we'll have to work outside of our right away so we have a mr smith is prepared to release to allow us to go onto the country called property they actually own on both sides of this road and so we're going to  seek permission to be able a bill to do that the other thing that i gave you was tonight was a quote in gateway engineers to undertake the engineering necessary to to design a solution driving through the city and it's a fairly foolproof solution but they are kind of expensive you know who probably you have to stabilize about two hundred feet where the way to stop the slide so one of the things of course we haven't budgeted for this so the things that we are in the process of doing it is reviewing our existing budget to find out where there are potential projects that can be deferred or projects where because of you know the pricing that that did that we received there's actually some savings to be had i do believe in this particular case we need to find that money within the existing budget we don't have i believe prudently go out and spend an additional five hundred thousand dollars each year that hasn't been budgeted so so what we need tonight is one for council to take action on this work authorization so the fact we can go ahead the second they were asking you to do is to is to wait for our normal purchasing process in speaking we get we engineers their concern is that time is of the essence and that where they can't tell you that if we wait for a normal bidding process that it will impact that they think that there's a real possibility that could occur and if there is a significant slide it could be catastrophic in the sense that the road could be closed down its entirety the other thing is it may make the process stabilize in the area more difficult more expensive and so what we're recommending is that we modify or purchasing procedure and then we go out and get competitive proposals but we do it in a way that's expedited so that we're not going through the normal bidding process of public advertising and you know having that period of sixty to ninety days to get to get bids in that what we do  multiple be a good thing getting the best possible price it's just that we won't be going through that formal public bidding process so that's kind of where we are right now have been from a club perspective you know our concern but the golf cart bridge can't handle cars one of the time it would take so we're trying to put in an evacuation procedure in place so that we can lease good it in you have to drive through the golf course on a little wider golf cart path it's not it's not a d c road to go to new you come out on georgetown road so we're here for that the other thing is we're about to start is some pretty significant construction on a new parking lot dooryard or driving range and there's going to be some some heavy equipment coming in so you also need to know what the way restriction is going to be for any on remiss if we didn't ask the sally he's painting in a way it's that this is a public road that that the town took took over long before i was here i think it's the obligation of the town p to maintain its its road with we do want to talk to the to the country club to make sure that we can work out some kind of cooperation because we may need access to some of their parking lots and that as a lay down areas even though they're quite some distance away from here would it make any sense to to request they allow the with of the right away to be increased to fifty feet oh i actually what i what i was going to propose is and i want to talk again talking about this tomorrow is that when this work done that we make an assessment of what it is we need permanently and quite honestly i believe that's going to be much wider than fifty p i think down over that hillside we need to be able to get quite some distance to be able to make sure that  born i happened to go back that way tonight before the meeting you know and what you have back there right tonight is you know the pools open and and that parking lot where the pool is is completely pool i don't know that there's an event or something that's occurring but that parking  as relates to uniforms and equipment we have been spending time with the police department working through issues relating to uniforms and their acquisition uniform and that will be implemented in january of next year the intention is the officers who feel a need for that type of uniform to purchase it out of their clothing allowance is any of this clothing stuff coming out of the budget it all comes out of the budget because even though the clothing allowance for is provided for in the contract that money is budgeted by the township this will not resolve as far as i'm concerned and any significant increase in the money that we spend on uniforms over time the one bump in this is that you may have handful of area it would provide and allow for an associate's degree in criminal justice if someone has three years of continuous police experience or an associate's degree criminal justice if a person has that honorable discharge  process of hiring the captain the question was would we be willing to waive for an existing office or the requirement for a college degree for the position of captain and we made the determination since that was not required at the point time when when individuals or higher that we would do  psychology degree would be one that we would be willing to accept but you know maybe a political science degree you might be willing  recommending this and that it aligns with state police requirements make some sense particularly because they are he's an associate experience because in the original and your experience it says not done and that was a question that i raise because if we're going to do this then i think we need to modify and take the nine under experience away because we do require experience with a lesser degree and it's a semantic but i think you need to be consistent in the job description so your challenge and i did have the same question mr curie had about related fields i would not be in favor of  we're only hiring for a full time position to go out and take applications that is that is keep brining to recommendation and i think he's probably right i think that we need to be out and those people were given be given an recycling in commercial situations is it the occupant of the building or is it the owner of the building of a commercial building and the answer the question it is that is the occupant of the building is responsible now as a about is down on the new site planes actually requiring that the space that is designated for a garbage dumpster be sized in such a way that there is only actually space for a dumpster a state law but what we do for a number of businesses who have a common recycling bin it is and we were willing to accept what you know that report for the building at that haulers in town to ask them how much they're collecting collectively and i think that number has some validity but what we're getting back from individuals i don't think has any and i suggest is that we we turn this over to the environmental quality ey end up with so contaminated with other things use that that they end up having to throw it away but i will say they are in the soccer  working on that i think the problem's going to be quite honestly with the fourth of july coming out with the public hearing or the zoning ordinance i don't think i'm going to be able to schedule a meeting with them in council
