Jody Menzel  0:25  
I'm gonna go ahead and get started. Then first, well, let me make sure I've got - I believe I've got everybody's information here except for Pam, I don't know if I have yours or not, so I got me David, get Mike, Pam Langerman, Clark Pedersen, Jay Gonzales, and Maxwell Christensen. So again, I believe I've got everybody's information, emails, and everything except for and if you don't want me to share it, that's fine. If you don't, yeah, okay. So we don't have to fill anything out, or you want to know, I've got your information already, right? I've got your email address, your phone number, yeah. So I probably do, I just didn't. Oh, I do have it. Wait, wait, never mind. I've got it right here. Paddling number

Pam Langerman  1:26  
that you have on that

Jody Menzel  1:36  
All right, so first let's see, I'm gonna go down the agenda here, so call the order on that roll call. We've got that essentially, and prove minutes from last meeting. This time I brought a copy. This is what to get when Indiana will be doing the minutes next time. This is what we get. I do the minutes, so this is the last minutes, and we can either just say that they're approved and we can move on, or if you would like to try to make an effort to read through

David Palmer  2:17  
it all. Here well, I propose that we approve minutes from our last meeting. I don't know whether there's had a chance to read them.

Jody Menzel  2:31  
Oh, second, second, I guess with both of us here. Okay, then meeting minutes are on the website. I don't know if anybody's

David Palmer  2:40  
anybody want to second these minutes?

Brant Layton  2:42  
Second.

David Palmer  2:43  
All in favor, say aye.

Jody Menzel  2:51  
Welcome to look at them, of course. They're on the website.

Jody Menzel  2:54  
And Brent Layton, yes. Okay, so we've got one more attending. I've got your information too, so at least I believe I do. I know I got your phone number. I don't know if I need your email address. If you want me to have it, you could write it on. What's that? I will write it off. Okay. Okay.

David Palmer  3:19  
You know what I would like. I'd like for you to look at this map and put a check mark by your house, so you can kind of see everything else but a pen. One

Jody Menzel  3:36  
thing is that we should say that we are missing a third trustee here, that would be we're missing Brent Kellis, he's the other trustee, but we do have three, two out of three trustees, so we have a quorum, so we can go ahead and continue,

David Palmer  4:01  
he's attending a funeral.

Jody Menzel  4:04  
He said he was out of town on something like a funeral. I don't know if that's exactly what he said, but yeah, next item of business here was to review the financial status of the district now. When I sent this out, I made mistakes. Oh, got another person. Who do we have joining us? Oh, okay. I made a mistake on this. Well, I made it. Actually, I made two omissions and one mistake, where I said that Lentz Landscape was 975 was 925 which is kind of minor, but I omitted two expenses that we had, and one was $584.04 and that was when I made out, I paid GoDaddy to have web hosting, and it goes for three years, the other item was $100 and I'm assuming that it was the insurance bond for Brent Kellis, because I didn't see it on my list. Yeah, so, and also I had stick $850 on the bottom that hasn't been paid, so that'll be on next fiscal years. So what it came out to is instead of 22,401 we've got 21,767 That also reduces our reserve to 23,750 next year got this is on the live posted the revised version on the website too.

Brant Layton  6:08  
Did you also correct the two years 2025

Brant Layton  6:12  
I did. I believe I caught that 630 2027 on this version. I can pass this around if anyone wants to review it. Let me put down

Blaine Nelson  6:34  
I'm Blaine Nelson.

Jody Menzel  6:35  
Blaine Nelson, I think I've got you on attending. Yeah, well, let's see. If you attended

Blaine Nelson  6:47  
before,

Jody Menzel  6:50  
you're not on my list. I'm gonna put your name down, and I think I might have your information, but I might need that too. We're running out of pens. I'm gonna go and look, okay. It BlaineNelson,

Blaine Nelson  7:10  
yeah, ELA, okay,

Jody Menzel  7:20  
oh, 865 six five

Blaine Nelson  7:28  
Street.

Jody Menzel  7:33  
Now, if you might already have your email address and your telephone number, but if you want to

Maxwell Christensen  7:51  
damage these caused by our friends doing the work on all the various telecommunications or just wear and tear, 

Jody Menzel  8:02  
it is pretty much where I'm scared. Let me see, we can go through these farsight construction. That was the first one that was on, was Linda Dorathy on it, yeah, across the street from you. They relocated the line in the back because the other one couldn't be repaired, so that was the line that went to the valve in her backyard. And I actually talked about that briefly at the end of the last meeting. I don't know if you recall or not, actually briefly call you on and on. Then the let's see, standpipe gates, we needed to on the 10/29 the standpipe gates, this was that necessary to replace the two gates on one that serves Jay Gonzales at the end of there on Westwood between ninth place and 10th street, because it had slide gates, and we finally got them replaced. It was last one on our list of things to do, and I think it made things a lot easier. That was last one. We have two gates and one standpipe, and that using slide gates was really awkward, especially there, because that one is the only one that turns out, well, not the only one. We have to shut both of them, and then they'll fill up all the way, and then open one, and that's really hard to do with slide gates. But now, with the turn-type gates, that's mentioned the fact

Brant Layton  9:35  
that one of those slide dates was rusted off.

Jody Menzel  9:39  
Yeah, that's That's right, you're on that one too. And the last one was the big money part of it was $6,000 to replace 72 feet of damaged concrete. That was, I believe, Brian Carrick. He just had a really badly degraded problematic pipe, and so rather than try to repair each little leak, we replaced it with, with the card-like pip. Pip, which stands for plastic irrigation pipe, later or not, so we put the pip out there. Okay. Engine 218 324 South Alma School Road. Engine 218 with Okay,

Blaine Nelson  10:45  
they visited me twice in the last few months. I've been passing out like for an unknown reason. It only happened like once every six months to a year. It started before I retired, like six years ago, and then, but it just would happen. I'd wake up on the floor, and then what was this about? And then I'd be fine. And then, like, six months later, happen again, you know? But it started happening a little more frequently. And then on February 8, it was where I didn't show up at church. My pastor tries to call me, I don't answer, so he comes over and I don't respond the door, so he calls the fire department and the police got in the house, found me on the floor out cold. I spent four days in the hospital and they diagnosed it as seizure and but unknown call, they've been trying for sorry, two years to figure out what is causing it. They haven't done multiple brain scans, MRIs, nothing wrong in the brain, done the heart, or the heart pack for two days, couldn't find anything wrong with my heart, and then the ultrasound scan of the heart, nothing wrong there, can't find anything wrong with me, but I'm not mistake. Got out of hospital, I put on this anti-seizure medication, and take one of those twice a day. And I did have a little bit of an incident in March, where my next-gen neighbor came over, asked me to pick up some mail, along talking to him. I froze up, I didn't lose my balance and pass out, but I just couldn't talk. So then that's the second time he called the guys here, came out and by the table, and got there, was checking me out, discovered, recovered stuff. But since then, the anti-seizure med seems to be doing the trick. The weird thing is, my brother has the exact same condition. I found out it's on the same medication, can't find out where it is on any meter. So it's obviously genetic, but neither of our parents did anything like

David Palmer  12:53  
that under control. I hope so. Yeah,

Blaine Nelson  12:58  
I'm retired now, which is nice.

Jody Menzel  13:05  
You're looking at me. I was wondering, if anyone, once I've got maps left over from last year, does anyone there kind of, you know, if we end up talking about stuff, I'll just put them here, and, and if you need to refer to them, we can moving on to the next, well, actually we're still on the financial history, and we're going to have to pay the financial history, so again, there have been some changes in the amounts, we paid more than I thought, I left off about 600 let's see, $600 and also we're going to have some expenses right off at the beginning of the new year, we're going to have to pay for mailings, there's one more Premier Irrigation, which, by the way, so I've got two premier irrigation payments, and another expense. Oh, Mike, Mike Lentz to pay for his work on the alley cleanups, so those will probably be paid next week, so that'll start off the fiscal year with probably not quite as much as you know we did last year, where the first one last year was like 2 980 but this year we will start off with having to make payments, so the budget out here, it's this is something that I needed to ask you about, David, because I just kind of assume that we're going to continue with the same amount as we have been, and not raise, okay, but should be aware that we're going to have a lot less of reserve, but I think we'll build it up because we've had exceptional costs this year that well could keep on doing it next year too, but we can make it through one year, and if we need to adjust it, we can do it next year, so the levy will remain the same, and for David's property, it's going to be a lot more than mine, because, of course, it's based on your acreage. My it came out to $66.38 for me, with 45 inches, 45 minutes of irrigation, so that's probably if you ever look at your, your tax, the bill that they send you, it will say on there how much you're paying for the irrigation, so in that case I move that we continue with the budget remaining the same as it is last year.

David Palmer  16:07  
I'll second that. So, basically, we're saying that it's going to be a $14,950 levy. Yeah, same as last year that gets your taxes.

Jody Menzel  16:19  
Okay. Yes. Yep. So seconded, since we're actually the only ones whose votes count, let's just say it's unanimously passed here, and I'll go ahead and sign it right now. What the heck, these are due July first, so we've got time, all right. So that's

David Palmer  16:49  
parts done.

Jody Menzel  16:50  
Yeah, and this again, it's exactly the same as last year, except for the dates. We have to

David Palmer  16:55  
send this stuff into some the

Jody Menzel  16:58  
county, yeah, the county demands it. I don't really understand, because we say we want only 13,000 and then they stick on this 15% for delinquency. Well, we still get like this entire amount, 14 950 so I don't really understand. Yeah, I assume that's yeah, if you look at it, actually came out pretty close. We came out with income of $15,243 last year, but that does include the interest, but still it's pretty close to the amount that the total estimated revenue, even whether I understand it or not. Let's see, I think I broke out the interest on the second page, did not your interest in how much is interesting, I understand. Let's see, $856 in interest on, well, what came out to be around 22,000 at the end of the year. Welcome, Michael. I'm just talking about you Twitter, oh we've got Michael Kielsky here. Also, what we were discussing isn't on the agenda, so technically we can't discuss it right now, but we can bring it up at the end. The meeting is nine for next year's, and again, these, these are the rules, but we can talk about it anyway. But not in the meeting, not right now. Anyway, I'm gonna try to get through this agenda. Here we're on, actually. Actually, we've got the attendance. I don't want to introduce you right now, but did everybody know Michael? If you don't, this is Michael Kelsey. Website status and next steps. I've got the website, I bought Secure Socket Layer for it, so it's HT PPS now. This is a certificate, yeah, certificate, right? And I made sure I called out, had it's just kind of strange, but anyway, the certificate is installed, and the way the guy tell me you can tell is if you go into like private browsing, you can see the website, then you know that it has a certificate, and that that was good, and then as I mentioned before, I did pay for PHP, and oh, I think it's on there. Oh no, yeah, no PHP. Oh, Jay, do you have it? It would be the $542 one near the bottom. Yeah, Go Daddy for web web hosting, and that just means that I can go in there and do stuff with it, and we're that's for three years for web hosting. It makes it a lot easier to edit the website and such, and, and 582 seems to be a lot, but it's spread over three years. I'm still paying for the domain names, I don't mind, it's not much, it's pretty small, but I've got two domain names, because when I originally set them up, I had CCEI Net as an option too, and I've never used it. I thought, well, I can sell it, they say it's like worth over 1000 bucks, but I don't know why I sell it. So it just sits there, and

Brant Layton  21:16  
if you log in, you can say where they tell you it's worth something. Yeah, that's whatever.

Jody Menzel  21:22  
Yeah, that's where it says I don't know. They for you, another company and another thing, because I tried it once and it turned out to be a major hassle and didn't understand it. I had to have another login or another site, and I just gave up. I might in the future, or if someone else ends up managing the website, they're willing, they're free to sell it, but since I've been paying for it, I guess still in my name, I also get another benefit is that I've got another website that's not up and running yet, but I can use that PHP on both of them, if it comes up as an issue in the future. I can always reimburse for how much it's worth, but right now I haven't really made you start it. What else did I have about the website? Brent Kellis asked about whether we should keep track of the visitors and such, which we're not doing now. There is a free utility through Google that that counts how many visitors and such you have. I can't remember what it's called, but it's probably something that I'll just go ahead and tack on there, but I can't tell you right now, like how many visitors we've had and such.

David Palmer  22:49  
Do we need to know that?

Jody Menzel  22:50  
I don't think technically we do. The website has to be there, even if no visitors come. If it's just sitting there and nobody ever visits it, we still need it, because there are certain things that we have to post on there, like, you know, this, the meetings and such, so it really is an asset. We would have a hard time without the website.

David Palmer  23:13  
I'd suggest it is until there's a need to keep track of who goes on there. How many?

Jody Menzel  23:21  
Yeah, I don't think if there's a motion on this, but we can go ahead and we

David Palmer  23:27  
just won't do anything with the press proposal.

Jody Menzel  23:31  
Okay, I might get it won't cost anything if I do. It's just something that it's not a big priority with me, and I'm not going to bring it up or put it on the agenda again, unless somebody asks. Maybe I'll have that information next time. Maybe I won't. If that's okay, I don't think we need a motion on this. We can't really make a motion to keep things as they are. Maybe we should. I don't know. What do you think? Yes. So just does it

Blaine Nelson  24:03  
evidently the schedule doesn't get posted on the website? We don't use it for that. No, because it's two completely separate. It

Jody Menzel  24:12  
has a link. I'm not sure if it works. I could check it out. Let's see. Kind of worry, well, yeah,

Brant Layton  24:22  
so I have two properties, each one of them is in a separate IWDD. We just recently I got on the phone with the folks at SRP Water, and we now get text messages three to four days ahead of time, and the day ahead of time under water, and that's the most use. Plus, and those text messages and emails have a link in it to the current schedule, and that's the most useful way, you know, if you're not, if you're completely not able to do things on a phone or email that doesn't work, but if you are used to that, that's the really the best way to get notified. Yeah, I've got the notifications also.

Jody Menzel  25:12  
Yeah, so that's helpful. There you can go in with with your SRP login and bring up the complete schedule of everybody in their times. The other thing is, you don't really need an SRP login for that. They post another schedule without the names, but with just the addresses, at least they used to, and I'm not sure, but that's the link that I have on on the website, so yeah. moving on here. Where am I?

David Palmer  25:48  
Number four.

Jody Menzel  25:50  
Okay. Status proposed boundary change. We talked about this at the last meeting. Let's name again, is it the the doctor,

David Palmer  26:05  
it's the spot right

Jody Menzel  26:06  
there. Yes, yeah, that's right. Two lots is that up by the doctors. No, no,

David Palmer  26:21  
this is the Eureka Canal. Okay, let me get it.

Jody Menzel  26:27  
Yeah, West

Speaker 1  26:28  
Israel Salado, right here. Okay, so you go down, and it's right there, okay. Okay,

Jody Menzel  26:43  
yeah, it's so he's on the schedule, he gets water, he's not within our district boundaries, so he doesn't get taxed like we do for the maintenance of the line, and I believe I can't bring up his name right now, that's right, so Jason Wright,

David Palmer  27:02  
Jason, yeah,

Jody Menzel  27:04  
yeah. Now I did do a little bit more research on this, how to, you know, try to get him in our district, and it seems kind of really involved. It's essentially going through the same process we did when we set up the entire district, except I think if, as far as the the petitions go, there'd be like one petition with one name on it that he could sign and be done with it, but they still are saying that you need to announce it and have a hearing, a public hearing on it, and now it's a hearing, publish it into newspapers, and it all seems like more trouble than it's worth it. So I'm just as happy if there's.. I don't know if there might be a way that we could come

David Palmer  28:00  
to this. Let's find out about what he would pay, and I'll ask him to write a check to our district once a year and take care of her.

Jody Menzel  28:08  
We could do it that way, but we don't know

Brant Layton  28:18  
why.

Jody Menzel  28:19  
That's it. That is the property, as far as I'm aware of. It's kind of strange.

David Palmer  28:24  
There's two lots.

Jody Menzel  28:29  
Okay.

Brant Layton  28:30  
Okay. One's vacant, yeah. One's where his house is.

Jody Menzel  28:33  
Okay. So it's like 802 and 804 Well, that's not the only one, I think. Where there's some strange things like that, where yeah, so now there's there a pipe there. Yes, it is used, yeah. yeah, this seed gets water already. Okay, right. So he didn't, he wasn't getting water when we set up the district, so we just assumed that he wasn't getting water. Period. So he got left out of the district boundary, which is the green line on here. So, but then afterwards he started taking water again, and on the on the south side, his is the only one on the north side of eighth place, but that pipe that goes there also serves the property on properties on heritage, so the pipe goes. It used to go all the way and go under the street and go to Nancy White's property, but right now it doesn't. We reroute it to Nancy's white, but there is there is a line that goes right along there, along where that green line is. It's got little question marks underneath it. Yeah. Office, well, anyway, I kind of like David's suggestion. On the other hand, we could just say we could come up to make an agreement that he will pay for the repairs. It doesn't. It's still kind of weird, see if we have any issues on there other than his property, we've got to pay for.

David Palmer  30:27  
So, what I'm suggesting is rather than spend a ton of time and effort to go through a legal process to include him, which would result in him getting a property tax bill and paying 60 or $120 a year, whatever it happens to be, we'll just collect the money from it the same and deposit it directly into our account.

Jody Menzel  30:55  
I don't know, how is that possible? It is, if we can get a check, but you've got the deposit slips. I've never even tried to do a deposit to our county

David Palmer  31:08  
one early on. I can't remember. We did one

Jody Menzel  31:11  
deposit initially when we first started the district, because we had a bunch

David Palmer  31:15  
easier to figure out how to put it in the account rather than much. I

Jody Menzel  31:18  
just didn't know if that's even allowed. Yeah, since this is a tax connected a tax-connected account, I don't see any reason why we can't make deposits. Well, maybe it would be easier to just come to some kind of an understanding with him that if we have issues, we'd like him to share in the payment. But I'll tell you what. What I really don't want to do is see this on the agenda again and return to it every time, maybe one more time. Could you reach out to Jason Wright, and you know I.
