1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:02,000
You

2
00:00:30,000 --> 00:00:32,000
You

3
00:01:00,000 --> 00:01:02,000
You

4
00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:32,000
You

5
00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:02,000
You

6
00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:32,000
You

7
00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:02,000
You

8
00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:32,000
You

9
00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:02,000
You

10
00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:32,000
You

11
00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:02,000
You

12
00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:32,000
You

13
00:05:32,000 --> 00:05:34,000
You

14
00:05:34,000 --> 00:05:36,000
You

15
00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:38,000
Okay.

16
00:05:38,000 --> 00:05:41,000
So we did that early in the year with the folks from

17
00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:42,000
Special Olympics.

18
00:05:42,000 --> 00:05:45,000
Same thing we have done traditionally every year.

19
00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:47,000
We still do the bike rodeo, bike tape.

20
00:05:47,000 --> 00:05:52,000
Try to really push with kids the needs for helmets and how to

21
00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:55,000
Make sure they're riding safely and try to minimize injuries and

22
00:05:55,000 --> 00:05:58,000
Risk that way for them and their parents and their families.

23
00:05:58,000 --> 00:06:01,000
So that's always a well populated or well attended event when

24
00:06:01,000 --> 00:06:03,000
That we do that.

25
00:06:03,000 --> 00:06:07,000
One of my favorites is the winter wonderland event we do.

26
00:06:07,000 --> 00:06:10,000
We do it just after the first of the year now.

27
00:06:10,000 --> 00:06:12,000
We used to try to do it before Christmas.

28
00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:15,000
So we found there's too many families that are.

29
00:06:15,000 --> 00:06:19,000
Too many things going on at one time from craft fairs and

30
00:06:19,000 --> 00:06:21,000
Everything else pre holiday parties.

31
00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:23,000
So we do it just after the first of the year.

32
00:06:24,000 --> 00:06:27,000
Again, another 80 90 people show up for this, but it's very

33
00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:31,000
Targeted to families with special needs inside the family.

34
00:06:31,000 --> 00:06:34,000
So it's very well received that way.

35
00:06:34,000 --> 00:06:36,000
We a lot of support from the high school.

36
00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:39,000
A lot of support from local business that helps us out with

37
00:06:39,000 --> 00:06:40,000
It.

38
00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:42,000
To minimize the expense of it.

39
00:06:42,000 --> 00:06:44,000
But fleet farmers a great sponsor of ours.

40
00:06:44,000 --> 00:06:46,000
For this particular event.

41
00:06:46,000 --> 00:06:49,000
And they give us a lot of things for the kids basically to have

42
00:06:49,000 --> 00:06:50,000
is giveaways.

43
00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:53,000
So it's it's a very good event that way.

44
00:06:53,000 --> 00:06:57,000
It helps the staff to build a relationship and understand kids

45
00:06:57,000 --> 00:06:59,000
With special needs or intellectual disabilities.

46
00:06:59,000 --> 00:07:01,000
So if something happens in the home.

47
00:07:01,000 --> 00:07:04,000
There's already a little bit of a relationship with parents and

48
00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:08,000
They have a deeper understanding of like, just as an example,

49
00:07:08,000 --> 00:07:11,000
Autism and how a kid might respond if they have autism.

50
00:07:11,000 --> 00:07:14,000
So it's kind of good a win win that way.

51
00:07:14,000 --> 00:07:17,000
CSI in the park is yet a little bit different.

52
00:07:17,000 --> 00:07:19,000
So we're going to continue to do that.

53
00:07:19,000 --> 00:07:22,000
I think that's how posted already for this early summer.

54
00:07:22,000 --> 00:07:25,000
So we get a couple sessions of that as well.

55
00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:29,000
Kind of exposes the elementary age children to just different

56
00:07:29,000 --> 00:07:30,000
Things they see here.

57
00:07:30,000 --> 00:07:33,000
CSI and I think they show my little fingerprints and they do

58
00:07:33,000 --> 00:07:34,000
All kinds of different things.

59
00:07:34,000 --> 00:07:37,000
So all the little caper in the park generally.

60
00:07:38,000 --> 00:07:40,000
The vision is still remain the same again.

61
00:07:40,000 --> 00:07:43,000
Village where everybody can be safe guarded by a police department

62
00:07:43,000 --> 00:07:45,000
That demonstrates highest levels of integrity promotes

63
00:07:45,000 --> 00:07:48,000
Collaborative relationships and builds trust with all

64
00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:49,000
Members of the community.

65
00:07:49,000 --> 00:07:52,000
So a lot of our community policing efforts drive into that

66
00:07:52,000 --> 00:07:55,000
Vision to try to build good relationships inside the

67
00:07:55,000 --> 00:07:56,000
Community.

68
00:07:56,000 --> 00:07:58,000
We will at least once we get to the next slide.

69
00:07:58,000 --> 00:08:00,000
So we're going to be able to do that.

70
00:08:00,000 --> 00:08:02,000
We're going to be able to do that.

71
00:08:02,000 --> 00:08:04,000
We're going to be able to do that.

72
00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:08,000
We will at least once a year we'll go serve lunch at the

73
00:08:08,000 --> 00:08:09,000
Senior Center.

74
00:08:09,000 --> 00:08:10,000
We did that again last year.

75
00:08:10,000 --> 00:08:13,000
A couple years ago we ended up doing it on birthday

76
00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:16,000
Lunchday, which is a whole new level of excitement.

77
00:08:16,000 --> 00:08:19,000
Because it gets to be kind of fun when they're all celebrating

78
00:08:19,000 --> 00:08:20,000
The birthdays for the month.

79
00:08:20,000 --> 00:08:22,000
But it's a good time for us to interact.

80
00:08:22,000 --> 00:08:25,000
Here's some different feedback from folks and just get a

81
00:08:25,000 --> 00:08:28,000
Chance to share some time with our seniors.

82
00:08:28,000 --> 00:08:31,000
Read with an officer is another program.

83
00:08:32,000 --> 00:08:35,000
It's a really good program.

84
00:08:35,000 --> 00:08:36,000
Don't get me wrong.

85
00:08:36,000 --> 00:08:38,000
It's just sometimes we end up having to cancel last minute

86
00:08:38,000 --> 00:08:40,000
Depending on call volume because it's after school.

87
00:08:40,000 --> 00:08:42,000
So it's after school.

88
00:08:42,000 --> 00:08:46,000
We delegate an officer to be at the library and be with kids and

89
00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:49,000
Read with them or read to them depending on the circumstance.

90
00:08:49,000 --> 00:08:53,000
But again, sometimes we just get call volume and we have to

91
00:08:53,000 --> 00:08:55,000
Unfortunately cancel it last second.

92
00:08:55,000 --> 00:08:57,000
So we try to get back to it.

93
00:08:57,000 --> 00:09:00,000
Everybody is basically assigned a week to do it.

94
00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:02,000
Every year.

95
00:09:02,000 --> 00:09:05,000
Most law enforcement agencies are doing this.

96
00:09:05,000 --> 00:09:06,000
We continue to do it.

97
00:09:06,000 --> 00:09:08,000
We've done it for many years where we have an annual active

98
00:09:08,000 --> 00:09:10,000
Threat in service type training.

99
00:09:10,000 --> 00:09:12,000
We do it in the summer just prior to school starting.

100
00:09:12,000 --> 00:09:15,000
We've worked with the school staff in the past.

101
00:09:15,000 --> 00:09:19,000
To allow them to come in and either audit or watch it.

102
00:09:19,000 --> 00:09:22,000
Or we get some of the high school kids in drama to be role

103
00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:25,000
Players for us because it really changes the damage when people

104
00:09:25,000 --> 00:09:27,000
Are screaming at you inside the building.

105
00:09:27,000 --> 00:09:30,000
But we go through and we pick it from building every year.

106
00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:32,000
We've done it at private business as well.

107
00:09:32,000 --> 00:09:34,000
So it's not just focused on the school.

108
00:09:34,000 --> 00:09:36,000
It's on the overall active threat environment.

109
00:09:36,000 --> 00:09:39,000
And how do we respond to those circumstances in cases?

110
00:09:39,000 --> 00:09:41,000
God forbid they should ever come.

111
00:09:42,000 --> 00:09:44,000
Just generalize community policing.

112
00:09:44,000 --> 00:09:48,000
We again, this is our next is to connect with our community and

113
00:09:48,000 --> 00:09:49,000
Everybody in our community.

114
00:09:49,000 --> 00:09:50,000
So a lot of it drives through the school.

115
00:09:50,000 --> 00:09:51,000
We're cognizant of that.

116
00:09:51,000 --> 00:09:53,000
But in the same way.

117
00:09:53,000 --> 00:09:56,000
We try to find other opportunities throughout the

118
00:09:56,000 --> 00:09:59,000
Throughout the year throughout the summer to connect with people.

119
00:09:59,000 --> 00:10:01,000
And meet them where they are kind of a thing.

120
00:10:01,000 --> 00:10:02,000
It's pretty common.

121
00:10:02,000 --> 00:10:05,000
This is this was a we call a pop up party.

122
00:10:05,000 --> 00:10:08,000
So we have staff usually during the day early afternoon.

123
00:10:08,000 --> 00:10:12,000
We'll put it on social media that we're going to be at pick a

124
00:10:12,000 --> 00:10:14,000
Location and people will show up.

125
00:10:14,000 --> 00:10:17,000
We've had anywhere from 50 to 70 people just to show up and hang

126
00:10:17,000 --> 00:10:19,000
Out for a little bit.

127
00:10:19,000 --> 00:10:21,000
And then obviously we have people available for calls the same

128
00:10:21,000 --> 00:10:23,000
Time or if they have to break for calls.

129
00:10:23,000 --> 00:10:25,000
That's always a priority to us.

130
00:10:25,000 --> 00:10:28,000
So reading with kids are interacting with kids the elementary

131
00:10:28,000 --> 00:10:29,000
School.

132
00:10:29,000 --> 00:10:33,000
We get a fair amount of school visits that people come through.

133
00:10:33,000 --> 00:10:36,000
And this is not last year's is 24.

134
00:10:36,000 --> 00:10:38,000
But even the officers wanted to see Santa.

135
00:10:38,000 --> 00:10:42,000
So they got that opportunity as well.

136
00:10:42,000 --> 00:10:46,000
Shop of the cop is a Dean County effort.

137
00:10:46,000 --> 00:10:47,000
We do participate in that.

138
00:10:47,000 --> 00:10:49,000
I think we had three or four.

139
00:10:49,000 --> 00:10:52,000
Officers that went to shop of the cop last year.

140
00:10:52,000 --> 00:10:57,000
We do continue to do our citizens Academy.

141
00:10:57,000 --> 00:11:02,000
It is hard to get people for nine weeks is the struggle.

142
00:11:02,000 --> 00:11:06,000
So we're trying to best it sounds to reimagine that a little bit.

143
00:11:06,000 --> 00:11:09,000
We've thought about doing just a couple of Saturdays for five

144
00:11:09,000 --> 00:11:12,000
Hours a day and two or three Saturdays doing it different cadence

145
00:11:12,000 --> 00:11:14,000
Doing it twice a month.

146
00:11:14,000 --> 00:11:15,000
Same material.

147
00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:18,000
Challenge gets to be having enough people there when you do like

148
00:11:18,000 --> 00:11:21,000
Scenario based stuff so that everybody can get a flavor for it.

149
00:11:21,000 --> 00:11:23,000
The right alongs are always popular.

150
00:11:23,000 --> 00:11:24,000
But.

151
00:11:24,000 --> 00:11:26,000
So we're continuing to work on that.

152
00:11:26,000 --> 00:11:27,000
We'll find a way.

153
00:11:27,000 --> 00:11:29,000
Coffee with the cops still remains.

154
00:11:29,000 --> 00:11:33,000
The bike to school with an officer is another popular one.

155
00:11:33,000 --> 00:11:36,000
Uh, yahara seems to get bigger and bigger every year.

156
00:11:36,000 --> 00:11:39,000
You'll point was bigger for a while and yahara.

157
00:11:39,000 --> 00:11:41,000
Elementary seemed like they picked up.

158
00:11:41,000 --> 00:11:44,000
And then we're going to do something this year to expand it.

159
00:11:44,000 --> 00:11:49,000
So the divorce kids who go to Windsor Elementary or to harvest that

160
00:11:49,000 --> 00:11:52,000
We'll find a way to make that happen as well.

161
00:11:52,000 --> 00:11:55,000
And then throughout the year, we'll still do things like take a kid to

162
00:11:55,000 --> 00:11:56,000
School.

163
00:11:56,000 --> 00:12:00,000
It's usually a fundraiser from like some of the local charities nonprofits.

164
00:12:00,000 --> 00:12:04,000
So we'll offer that as well to pick a kid up.

165
00:12:04,000 --> 00:12:07,000
Sometimes take him to breakfast and then take him to school after.

166
00:12:07,000 --> 00:12:10,000
It's funny because some of the little walks get like, oh my gosh,

167
00:12:10,000 --> 00:12:11,000
I'm going to be late for school.

168
00:12:11,000 --> 00:12:12,000
I said, you're with me.

169
00:12:12,000 --> 00:12:14,000
I don't, I don't think you'll be late for school.

170
00:12:14,000 --> 00:12:15,000
It'll be okay.

171
00:12:15,000 --> 00:12:19,000
So, um, it's kind of fun, but it's, it's a good event that way.

172
00:12:19,000 --> 00:12:25,000
Are we realized over the years, uh, and the more, the longest I've been

173
00:12:25,000 --> 00:12:28,000
doing this 37 years or something like that.

174
00:12:28,000 --> 00:12:32,000
Um, you know, we in policing realize that we have started to recruit way

175
00:12:32,000 --> 00:12:33,000
too late.

176
00:12:33,000 --> 00:12:34,000
And you can't do that.

177
00:12:34,000 --> 00:12:38,000
You know, we, in policing realize that we have started to recruit way

178
00:12:38,000 --> 00:12:39,000
too late.

179
00:12:39,000 --> 00:12:41,000
And you can't get to kids in college.

180
00:12:41,000 --> 00:12:44,000
I think you're going to recruit a bunch of kids for policing.

181
00:12:44,000 --> 00:12:45,000
It just doesn't happen.

182
00:12:45,000 --> 00:12:49,000
So years ago, I challenged them to find some way to connect with

183
00:12:49,000 --> 00:12:50,000
kids during the summer.

184
00:12:50,000 --> 00:12:53,000
And that's where this youth academy thing kind of started.

185
00:12:53,000 --> 00:12:57,000
And we've, it's grown so well that we actually have a basic academy and

186
00:12:57,000 --> 00:12:58,000
advanced academy.

187
00:12:58,000 --> 00:13:02,000
So you can't do them twice because we found it would be like every

188
00:13:02,000 --> 00:13:03,000
year, my kid wants to come.

189
00:13:03,000 --> 00:13:04,000
They had fun, right?

190
00:13:04,000 --> 00:13:06,000
So we want to make it opportunistic for everybody.

191
00:13:06,000 --> 00:13:12,000
Um, so they'll go to the basic academy, which is a week long experience.

192
00:13:12,000 --> 00:13:17,000
Just learn a lot of different things from CSI type stuff to, um,

193
00:13:17,000 --> 00:13:21,000
interview and interrogation, problem solving, working as a team,

194
00:13:21,000 --> 00:13:25,000
emergency vehicle operations, uh, traffic stops or vehicle contacts,

195
00:13:25,000 --> 00:13:28,000
drone operations, a lot of the different things that we do.

196
00:13:28,000 --> 00:13:30,000
We get a real quick overview.

197
00:13:31,000 --> 00:13:35,000
And then when they come back to advanced academy, we just kind of ramped

198
00:13:35,000 --> 00:13:38,000
it up a little bit, make the problems more complex, really focused and

199
00:13:38,000 --> 00:13:39,000
working as a team.

200
00:13:39,000 --> 00:13:42,000
Anybody who's got kids in school know they do a lot of group projects.

201
00:13:42,000 --> 00:13:44,000
So they're kind of used to that stuff today.

202
00:13:44,000 --> 00:13:49,000
Um, and now the, our inside joke is, can you find officer little George in

203
00:13:49,000 --> 00:13:50,000
the picture with the kids?

204
00:13:50,000 --> 00:13:52,000
Cause some of them tower over her.

205
00:13:52,000 --> 00:13:54,000
And some of them tower over me as well.

206
00:13:54,000 --> 00:13:58,000
So that's not really say a lot, but, um, it's a very popular program.

207
00:13:58,000 --> 00:14:02,000
Uh, we get a lot of good interactions, uh, throughout the summer with it.

208
00:14:02,000 --> 00:14:03,000
So.

209
00:14:03,000 --> 00:14:07,000
The Eagle point third graders have really kind of helped take over the stuff,

210
00:14:07,000 --> 00:14:08,000
the squad event.

211
00:14:08,000 --> 00:14:09,000
And it's great.

212
00:14:09,000 --> 00:14:10,000
We try to do it just before the summer.

213
00:14:10,000 --> 00:14:14,000
So we can help our ski nipples get stocked up for the summer.

214
00:14:14,000 --> 00:14:16,000
Um, they kind of walk down the street.

215
00:14:16,000 --> 00:14:20,000
You'll see a big old line of kids walking from Eagle point down to the PD.

216
00:14:20,000 --> 00:14:22,000
Uh, they drop the stuff off, stop the squad.

217
00:14:22,000 --> 00:14:27,000
And then we, uh, work to the food bank, um, for distribution in the community.

218
00:14:27,000 --> 00:14:30,000
So it's a good partnership for us that way.

219
00:14:30,000 --> 00:14:34,000
This last year, uh, we have a new school resource officers.

220
00:14:34,000 --> 00:14:38,000
So Andrew Freeman finished his term as SRO.

221
00:14:38,000 --> 00:14:40,000
And now we have a Haley little George.

222
00:14:40,000 --> 00:14:43,000
You may know her as Haley Lockeron, but she's been married now for a bit.

223
00:14:43,000 --> 00:14:47,000
She is doing just phenomenal job with the school resource program.

224
00:14:47,000 --> 00:14:50,000
Um, in the things that she has come up with.

225
00:14:50,000 --> 00:14:51,000
A couple of her initiatives.

226
00:14:51,000 --> 00:14:54,000
She tries to make sure she gets all the schools in the, in the village,

227
00:14:54,000 --> 00:14:55,000
which is great.

228
00:14:56,000 --> 00:14:58,000
And Andy did the same thing. Don't get me wrong on that.

229
00:14:58,000 --> 00:15:02,000
This is not a slight on anything, but she really gets out and interacts with the kids.

230
00:15:02,000 --> 00:15:06,000
Um, she started something, which is kind of funny.

231
00:15:06,000 --> 00:15:08,000
She has lunch with little George and friends.

232
00:15:08,000 --> 00:15:11,000
So she'll tell us what day she wants us to come.

233
00:15:11,000 --> 00:15:13,000
And generally it's her favorite lunch day.

234
00:15:13,000 --> 00:15:15,000
I mean, let's just not get ourselves.

235
00:15:15,000 --> 00:15:19,000
Um, she'll buy whatever officers come lunch out of her, uh, card.

236
00:15:19,000 --> 00:15:23,000
She refills with herself and then you just sit around and talk to the kids.

237
00:15:23,000 --> 00:15:25,000
And it's generally a high school and middle school age.

238
00:15:25,000 --> 00:15:29,000
Kids really try to really connect with and just humanize the badge a little bit,

239
00:15:29,000 --> 00:15:30,000
humanize the position.

240
00:15:30,000 --> 00:15:33,000
Um, and that's really been successful.

241
00:15:33,000 --> 00:15:35,000
Just trying to have that interaction plus in the spring.

242
00:15:35,000 --> 00:15:39,000
I guarantee just like Freeman, some kids are going to challenge her to play basketball

243
00:15:39,000 --> 00:15:40,000
after school.

244
00:15:40,000 --> 00:15:42,000
It just happens quite frequently.

245
00:15:42,000 --> 00:15:44,000
Um, award ceremony.

246
00:15:44,000 --> 00:15:47,000
You were all part of the one award from this year.

247
00:15:47,000 --> 00:15:51,000
Um, but just throughout 2025,

248
00:15:51,000 --> 00:15:55,000
we use the period of April 1st through March 31st.

249
00:15:55,000 --> 00:16:00,000
Is that way I can capture stuff that happened and try to get the recent type of awards.

250
00:16:00,000 --> 00:16:05,000
To try to make sure we're recognizing people's efforts at timely manner.

251
00:16:05,000 --> 00:16:08,000
Um, a lot of good awards that came out of it.

252
00:16:08,000 --> 00:16:12,000
Obviously the employee of the year was captain read last year and then we had

253
00:16:12,000 --> 00:16:13,000
excellence in policing.

254
00:16:13,000 --> 00:16:18,000
I do have excellence in policing, excellence in community policing, a leadership award.

255
00:16:19,000 --> 00:16:20,000
So those all come into it.

256
00:16:20,000 --> 00:16:24,000
Uh, officer, I was from the events that happened in July 20th of last year.

257
00:16:24,000 --> 00:16:29,000
Um, not only got a award from the village board, but was also recognized onto capital.

258
00:16:29,000 --> 00:16:33,000
Um, as a first responder hero, uh, through this.

259
00:16:33,000 --> 00:16:37,000
Uh, representative McArville nominated him for that.

260
00:16:37,000 --> 00:16:39,000
So we're down there for that as well.

261
00:16:39,000 --> 00:16:44,000
Uh, always a interesting and exciting time to see him be honored.

262
00:16:44,000 --> 00:16:48,000
He's getting a recognition from the state patrol as well, coming up from that instance,

263
00:16:48,000 --> 00:16:50,000
because their award ceremonies coming up.

264
00:16:50,000 --> 00:16:55,000
So a week from Friday, he'll actually, uh, be recognized by the Wisconsin state patrol.

265
00:16:55,000 --> 00:17:00,000
A little bit of turnover through 24 25 and it all depends.

266
00:17:00,000 --> 00:17:04,000
I try to do swearing in ceremonies when it's convenient for family because it's a day

267
00:17:04,000 --> 00:17:09,000
for the family to really celebrate and, uh, respect and honor their new employee,

268
00:17:09,000 --> 00:17:11,000
but, uh, Zach graduated from the academy.

269
00:17:11,000 --> 00:17:13,000
Zach Liffernet graduated from the academy.

270
00:17:13,000 --> 00:17:15,000
He's out on solo patrol doing great.

271
00:17:15,000 --> 00:17:19,000
Uh, Connor Heston, the top left, some of you may have met some of you may have not.

272
00:17:19,000 --> 00:17:23,000
Uh, and Pete Christensen both graduated end of 24.

273
00:17:23,000 --> 00:17:25,000
So they finished field training in the 20, 25.

274
00:17:25,000 --> 00:17:27,000
They're on their, by themselves doing great.

275
00:17:27,000 --> 00:17:33,000
And then, uh, Alyssa Bailey is graduated from Milwaukee area tech last.

276
00:17:33,000 --> 00:17:35,000
Uh, just a couple of months ago.

277
00:17:35,000 --> 00:17:37,000
So she's just finishing up field training.

278
00:17:37,000 --> 00:17:42,000
So everything is a part, but we try to make sure that we get to their graduation ceremonies.

279
00:17:42,000 --> 00:17:44,000
It's a significant step for them.

280
00:17:44,000 --> 00:17:46,000
It's a lot of work, 720 hours.

281
00:17:46,000 --> 00:17:50,000
That is the fastest, yet slowest academy in your life because you think,

282
00:17:50,000 --> 00:17:53,000
oh, I'm never going to get out of here, but my gosh, I just started.

283
00:17:53,000 --> 00:17:56,000
So it's a, it's a very interesting time.

284
00:17:56,000 --> 00:18:00,000
They learn a lot of good things and we capitalize on it with field training after that.

285
00:18:00,000 --> 00:18:05,000
So let me just try to figure out how I can move this and just get this out of the way.

286
00:18:05,000 --> 00:18:06,000
That's a little better.

287
00:18:06,000 --> 00:18:09,000
So let's look at calls for service from last year.

288
00:18:09,000 --> 00:18:12,000
Uh, 2025 is the top bar graphs.

289
00:18:12,000 --> 00:18:16,000
If you can see, you can see that our call volume goes up again.

290
00:18:16,000 --> 00:18:20,000
Um, last year, some of it is traffic related.

291
00:18:20,000 --> 00:18:24,000
Um, I'll show you some heat maps here in a few minutes to kind of show you some of the hotspots in the village, but.

292
00:18:24,000 --> 00:18:25,000
All at all.

293
00:18:25,000 --> 00:18:28,000
Um, we see an increase from 2024 to 2025.

294
00:18:28,000 --> 00:18:30,000
We try to look at three to five years back.

295
00:18:30,000 --> 00:18:34,000
We published three years, but I'll look at three to five years back to see if there's patterns.

296
00:18:34,000 --> 00:18:37,000
Um, in the data, the sets that we look at.

297
00:18:37,000 --> 00:18:44,000
We're looking at by month and again, no surprise that June, July kind of lead the way, but December isn't that far behind.

298
00:18:44,000 --> 00:18:49,000
Uh, when you start to get to those types of events, some of this gets driven in different areas.

299
00:18:49,000 --> 00:18:54,000
Uh, some of it is a little bit of traffic related because those can come for calls for service.

300
00:18:54,000 --> 00:19:00,000
But we also get, uh, retail theft that took up during certain times a year that kind of drive the numbers.

301
00:19:01,000 --> 00:19:04,000
Uh, our mental health calls.

302
00:19:04,000 --> 00:19:06,000
Uh, I am.

303
00:19:06,000 --> 00:19:09,000
Kelly, if there's a secret to put those things somewhere.

304
00:19:16,000 --> 00:19:17,000
That one.

305
00:19:17,000 --> 00:19:19,000
Oh, look at you go.

306
00:19:19,000 --> 00:19:21,000
Thank you.

307
00:19:21,000 --> 00:19:28,000
So if you look at 2025 being the bottom data set here that I just now covered with some other little pop up.

308
00:19:28,000 --> 00:19:33,000
No, it's great, but our, uh, we track a lot of different things, what mental health calls.

309
00:19:33,000 --> 00:19:39,000
We track labor hours simply for the fact is to realize, uh, is there a better way to improve our operation?

310
00:19:39,000 --> 00:19:46,000
But the total number of calls is obviously fluctuated 23 22 was a really high 21 is coming off of COVID.

311
00:19:46,000 --> 00:19:48,000
So those numbers are really high.

312
00:19:48,000 --> 00:19:53,000
Um, but, you know, they seem to be stabilizing coming down a little bit.

313
00:19:53,000 --> 00:19:55,000
Our officers are really good at dealing with mental health.

314
00:19:55,000 --> 00:19:57,000
I'd like to think that.

315
00:19:57,000 --> 00:20:17,000
Uh, some other response and some of the things that, um, help drive lowering that is also, uh, from our community policing efforts and being able to either respond and efficiently handle the situation or being able to hopefully minimize some of the effects as well.

316
00:20:18,000 --> 00:20:26,000
We only had to take one person to, uh, with a bagel last year, which is helpful because it always seems like it comes two o'clock in the morning.

317
00:20:26,000 --> 00:20:36,000
And then I've either got to extend somebody. So there's an officer in the village or if it's somebody that, uh, we may have to at times call in a second person so we can send two officers up to win a bag.

318
00:20:36,000 --> 00:20:46,000
Oh, depending on the situation. We've been fortunate. We haven't had to do that a lot, but, um, now that detox has been closed that that's another challenge for us that see where that goes.

319
00:20:46,000 --> 00:20:50,000
So we continue to monitor that situation. Juvenile mental health.

320
00:20:50,000 --> 00:21:00,000
Again, you can see the 21 22 is really high again coming off COVID. Some other things you take kids away from their friend groups and you take everything else and things can happen.

321
00:21:01,000 --> 00:21:11,000
But, um, we have stabilized quite a bit. And again, we're on downward trend as of right now, at least for mental health calls, only 37 and 2025.

322
00:21:11,000 --> 00:21:17,000
Nine involving a minor. Um, and then so it's about 24% of involving minors.

323
00:21:18,000 --> 00:21:26,000
O W I continues to be an area of focus for us, especially in the overnight hours.

324
00:21:26,000 --> 00:21:31,000
Um, but we still get O W I or impaired drivers throughout the day.

325
00:21:31,000 --> 00:21:36,000
You surprise that the case during the day, 10 o'clock in the morning, somebody will call, you know, impaired driver.

326
00:21:36,000 --> 00:21:40,000
Um, 90. Um, I think they had one not too long ago.

327
00:21:41,000 --> 00:21:45,000
Uh, it, it continues to be area of focus because it drives overall street safety.

328
00:21:45,000 --> 00:21:48,000
Uh, it's unpredictable. And sometimes it can have a flow.

329
00:21:48,000 --> 00:21:53,000
Few years ago, we, we had operation safe summer because the numbers got really, I mean, it was just out of control.

330
00:21:53,000 --> 00:21:58,000
It was like every traffic stop they made was an impaired driver at either drugs or alcohol.

331
00:21:58,000 --> 00:22:05,000
It was, it was a little, you know, obviously dedicated effort from the staff and they put a lot of dedicated effort in a lot of different things.

332
00:22:05,000 --> 00:22:13,000
But in the same way, um, you know, that was, it didn't seem like it was this exorbitant effort that they had to get to 150 that year.

333
00:22:13,000 --> 00:22:18,000
It was just the outlier here, I think, um, things of, you know, evidence flow.

334
00:22:18,000 --> 00:22:22,000
We're going to now we're at 70 last year. So we're a little bit of an uptick.

335
00:22:22,000 --> 00:22:32,000
Um, but I'll take that with the staff being out and active at night as compared to to say, well, you know, the streets folded up and of course, no, there's plenty of areas to be.

336
00:22:32,000 --> 00:22:42,000
So they, they work hard to be present at night. Um, again, the average BAC is a 0.10, which means we're still, which is good.

337
00:22:42,000 --> 00:22:48,000
We're getting people that most dangerous, believe it or not, isn't that 0.7 to 1.1 for their response.

338
00:22:48,000 --> 00:22:52,000
The human response to alcohol is like the most dangerous part of it.

339
00:22:52,000 --> 00:22:57,000
So they're in a good spot, getting with the average being a 0.1. I'm happy with that.

340
00:22:57,000 --> 00:23:01,000
Uh, 20, 34% of the drivers.

341
00:23:01,000 --> 00:23:12,000
Uh, one or more priors. So it's, you know, we see that pretty consistently as far as the 30 to 40% of people have been arrested for OWI prior.

342
00:23:12,000 --> 00:23:17,000
So it wasn't their first rodeo average age still being 34 last year.

343
00:23:18,000 --> 00:23:23,000
We do a little comparison just to see where we fall with other communities.

344
00:23:23,000 --> 00:23:30,000
Um, and we're pretty much right in line with everybody. Some were going to be a little bit higher. Some might be just how you count things.

345
00:23:30,000 --> 00:23:40,000
Some might be proximity to Madison or other things. There's so many different ways you can try to explain the data, but all in all, I think we're in a good place.

346
00:23:41,000 --> 00:23:48,000
Um, battery, aggravated batteries are generating domestic violence related type events. Generally, we're going to see those here.

347
00:23:48,000 --> 00:23:56,000
Uh, abuse neglect. Sometimes we get those reported to us through the school and we get referrals from CPS. So we have to respond to those.

348
00:23:56,000 --> 00:24:03,000
Uh, damage to property. Again, those kinds of things we have had the intermittent cases of vandalism, which drives some of those things.

349
00:24:04,000 --> 00:24:13,000
It gets observed later and then it just gets reported. The one thing that IBR based report incident based reporting is it's when it's reported.

350
00:24:13,000 --> 00:24:20,000
So even if you can't prove it happened in 25 was determined it happened in 25 or it was reported in 25. It's counting for that year.

351
00:24:20,000 --> 00:24:29,000
When we start looking at, uh, actual case, uh, not just closures, but clearances and you can only clear things like four different ways.

352
00:24:29,000 --> 00:24:33,000
It's the year you clear the stuff. So if you, if we were to have.

353
00:24:33,000 --> 00:24:41,000
It's just hypothetically say we cleared 30 burglaries this week. We haven't. You don't have 30 burglaries. Just just hypothetical.

354
00:24:41,000 --> 00:24:48,000
Those are all accountants 2026 clearances, even though it could be a 2025 2024 event. So it.

355
00:24:48,000 --> 00:24:54,000
It kind of is a little bit flawed in the system because it goes to when it actually is reported and when it's clear.

356
00:24:55,000 --> 00:25:06,000
Again, you can see our retail theft numbers still to be above everybody else. The one thing that we hear routinely, especially from our rock store is that we clear a lot more of the retail theft than anybody else does too.

357
00:25:06,000 --> 00:25:12,000
So our staff does a pretty good job looking into things, getting to the root cause of it and trying to figure it out.

358
00:25:13,000 --> 00:25:25,000
Uh, our trading initiatives again, the very consistent for the event in the past. We do the active threat. We still work a lot of de-escalation. We do that not just from talking about it, but we do a lot of force on four scenarios.

359
00:25:25,000 --> 00:25:39,000
So it's basically interactive role play with, uh, options in the officer has no idea what they're walking into, which kind of really helps to develop them to talk to people, the young generation that's we found the one of the hardest things to do is talk to people.

360
00:25:39,000 --> 00:25:52,000
So they really focus a lot on that. The force on force is good. We have to do taser research every year. We do use a force that they understand what happens and then how do they actually talk about it after the case is done in training.

361
00:25:52,000 --> 00:26:01,000
Uh, vehicle contacts would continue to do. We still push our leadership and police organizations model. We have all of our FTOs through it. All of our supervisors are through it.

362
00:26:02,000 --> 00:26:16,000
Um, our admin staff has all been through it. It's now down to two weeks of leadership training that kind of looks at four systems, whether it be individuals groups leadership system or reflecting yourself and an organizational system series.

363
00:26:16,000 --> 00:26:24,000
So they kind of understand what happens in an organization and how they might future down the road be a leader such a formalized leader.

364
00:26:24,000 --> 00:26:28,000
Um, last year we bought in.

365
00:26:29,000 --> 00:26:41,000
CPS for lack of a better term, but, uh, they do minimal facts interviewing. So if a kid is reported as the victim of a crime, the worst thing you can do is interview them four or five, six times over and over again, they actually build trauma.

366
00:26:41,000 --> 00:26:51,000
So something called minimal facts interviewing is an important thing where you just get enough to proceed and then you stop and you let somebody who's trained that will take them to a safe harbor.

367
00:26:52,000 --> 00:27:08,000
They will do a recorded interviews. The child only has to be interviewed one time. They can use it in court. It's as long as they do the process, right? I've done this before in my previous department when I was a detective in sexual assaults and it is powerful when you go to court and you play the kids tape.

368
00:27:08,000 --> 00:27:14,000
Um, and plus you just don't have to keep asking the child the same question over and over and over. It's just better for everybody involved.

369
00:27:14,000 --> 00:27:23,000
So we bought them in. We actually had some folks from the school come over for the training as well. We did two sessions. It's four hours of training ish.

370
00:27:23,000 --> 00:27:31,000
Um, so it worked out really, really well for staff. I saw them actually applying it like two days later. So it's good to have those connections.

371
00:27:31,000 --> 00:27:42,000
And then we still continue work on officer override, which is legal part now. So if you see somebody that you think is using force that's creeping up as to we have control.

372
00:27:43,000 --> 00:27:52,000
To step in and kind of push them off to decide and take control of the situation like deescalate calm things down. So we continue to work on all those different training issues through our.

373
00:27:52,000 --> 00:27:55,000
In service training.

374
00:27:55,000 --> 00:28:11,000
You know, we still try to be strategic. We have our strategic plan. We talked about it. I bought it to you last year. We continue to work on a lot of those things, a lot of our communications based community policing based and trying to divide the village up to make sure that we're providing equal coverage throughout the village.

375
00:28:11,000 --> 00:28:24,000
So we continue to work on those traffic safety continues to be a area of focus for us. Obviously you approve the training to traffic grants every year, but it's beyond that. It's even out throughout shift work that they work on.

376
00:28:24,000 --> 00:28:31,000
Traffic safety initiatives and then enhance decision making. We do that through training. So it keeps going.

377
00:28:31,000 --> 00:28:38,000
Again, I talked about some of the stuff a little bit already, but in parodriving, not only alcohol, but drugs is becoming an issue.

378
00:28:38,000 --> 00:28:43,000
So we have to continue to be mindful of that. We have two drug recognition experts in the department.

379
00:28:43,000 --> 00:28:54,000
Officer Gilson and Officer Deppi. So basically they can do an enhanced level of testing on individual and they'll pretty much figure out what they were on when they're stopped.

380
00:28:54,000 --> 00:29:05,000
It's pretty impressive to watch them take blood pressures and temperatures and pupil size and all kinds of things to kind of get to the bottom of the situation.

381
00:29:06,000 --> 00:29:13,000
We're trying to work still on speed and risky behavior, especially now as we start to move. I think it's supposed to be spring. I don't know in Wisconsin.

382
00:29:13,000 --> 00:29:19,000
I can't tell it was freezing rain yesterday when I came to work when I left the Capitol yesterday afternoon. It was 65 degrees.

383
00:29:19,000 --> 00:29:27,000
But with the kid starting to get ready, spring fever getting out being more people being active on the trails being.

384
00:29:28,000 --> 00:29:36,000
Throughout the community, we're focusing more on that risky driving behavior because we're trying to prevent the really bad situations happening.

385
00:29:36,000 --> 00:29:48,000
And then I applied for a training opportunity to write tech is what it's it's an acronym. It's the collaborative reform on issues through accountability and training.

386
00:29:48,000 --> 00:29:56,000
I'm sorry, training something center. I can't remember the whole thing. It's too ICP, but it provides free training for law enforcement is what it does.

387
00:29:56,000 --> 00:30:05,000
So some years ago, I bought in. I had a list, not even going to go with that acronym because I didn't get the first one, right? So I'm going to take a pass on that.

388
00:30:05,000 --> 00:30:15,000
But they did DDAX training for us for those of you that were out for years. I kind of bought and talked to you about what it was is data driven approach to crime and traffic safety.

389
00:30:15,000 --> 00:30:25,000
That one I remember. It's really an easy way for law enforcement to deploy using data is compared to using hypotheticals. Well, I think something might be bad here.

390
00:30:25,000 --> 00:30:37,000
This is where our numbers show we got to be this time. Let's go take care of it. We've been deploying that now for maybe six years and really, really, it's easy to grab onto right C dot address dot.

391
00:30:37,000 --> 00:30:41,000
Dot gets bigger. We really need to address the dot.

392
00:30:41,000 --> 00:30:47,000
But our staff really kind of understands it. Sargents really understand it and they kind of drive those deployments. So we do that.

393
00:30:47,000 --> 00:30:51,000
The Crytek opportunity I applied for it. I'm just waiting for them to get back to me with it.

394
00:30:51,000 --> 00:31:00,000
It's intelligence. It's about intelligence led policing. So it's like a DDAX on a little bit of steroids. So it talks a little bit more about the data we generate.

395
00:31:00,000 --> 00:31:06,000
How do we use it to our advantage instead of saying we have all this stuff. It just sits in a cabinet somewhere.

396
00:31:07,000 --> 00:31:17,000
So we, like I talked about during the professional standards report, we look at our body water cameras. We look at the officers video cameras because otherwise you just have video footage sitting somewhere.

397
00:31:17,000 --> 00:31:23,000
We want to make them safer. We want to make sure we're doing the right things. We hold people accountable through using the tools that you've been.

398
00:31:23,000 --> 00:31:34,000
We've been fortunate to get through budgets and things like that. So we still use the grant shifts for to try to curb some of the risky driving behaviors traffic deployments.

399
00:31:34,000 --> 00:31:40,000
So we will do those as we if we have like Thursday right now is a full staff day. So if it's not a training day.

400
00:31:40,000 --> 00:31:48,000
We'll oftentimes pull out traffic deployments and as well as during the week other days when we have not anybody else off.

401
00:31:48,000 --> 00:31:54,000
We'll find time to the Sergeant will go out and leave. They'll take two or three to a certain area. We'll look for people texting while driving.

402
00:31:54,000 --> 00:32:01,000
We'll look for people that are just not paying attention. Disregarding traffic lights, signal signs, speed, all those types of things.

403
00:32:02,000 --> 00:32:06,000
The school zones continue to be area focused for us in the morning and the afternoon.

404
00:32:06,000 --> 00:32:15,000
Because let's face it that when kids are lasting a kid should have to worry about our parents have to worry about is their kid didn't get to school because of a traffic issue.

405
00:32:15,000 --> 00:32:19,000
So we're there basically every day that we could possibly be there.

406
00:32:19,000 --> 00:32:27,000
Our staffing model continues the same. Obviously the 10 hour iteration has helped us budgetarily. It actually puts more staff on the street.

407
00:32:27,000 --> 00:32:34,000
They get an extra, we get an extra 26 hours of labor per person that way. So it's, it's good. It's worked out well so far.

408
00:32:34,000 --> 00:32:41,000
I haven't heard any issues from the union on it, but it's, it's definitely helped in the scheduling side of it.

409
00:32:41,000 --> 00:32:49,000
Last year we did have 11,349 calls for service was the total number. I probably should have put that with the graph, but it's, that's kind of where the numbers are.

410
00:32:50,000 --> 00:32:57,000
The one thing I'm noticing is that the calls are becoming more complex so that it's not just a quick call to fix this, go on and move on.

411
00:32:57,000 --> 00:33:02,000
It's requiring some additional levels of investigation, the data pilot data that I showed you.

412
00:33:02,000 --> 00:33:10,000
I showed you last time the ability to download digital media and just analyze it quicker.

413
00:33:10,000 --> 00:33:17,000
It's worked out well and that's kind of helped stream that a little bit, but the calls are getting more where we have to do more.

414
00:33:17,000 --> 00:33:22,000
Work to kind of get to all the facts of the case. We still use the crime mapping.

415
00:33:22,000 --> 00:33:27,000
This is kind of the heat maps that we use that drives our data driven approach model.

416
00:33:27,000 --> 00:33:36,000
So we do use this. It kind of helps a resource allocation and it helps when we're trying to look at where to deploy resources so that the community knows that we're always there.

417
00:33:36,000 --> 00:33:40,000
So some of the crash data you can see is specifically the crash.

418
00:33:41,000 --> 00:33:47,000
If you had to guess, I probably should ask you before you probably heard me mention it, but right now the current.

419
00:33:47,000 --> 00:33:53,000
Most, I don't want to say dangerous. It's not like, oh, my God, don't ever go there.

420
00:33:53,000 --> 00:34:01,000
But the area with the highest frequency of traffic crashes is 1951 on highway 19 from people either disregarding the traffic signal trying to make the light.

421
00:34:01,000 --> 00:34:05,000
Whatever that is, that intersections by the worst. So it's had extra attention.

422
00:34:06,000 --> 00:34:10,000
The one on the right might be a little skewed because that's right in front of the state patrol and nursery.

423
00:34:10,000 --> 00:34:17,000
So if somebody shows up at the state patrol and they report it there, the community map will pull it if they don't change the address in the crash report.

424
00:34:17,000 --> 00:34:24,000
So that could be a little bit skewed because I don't remember this many traffic crashes on North Street in the 900 block.

425
00:34:24,000 --> 00:34:28,000
But that's say that they're not there.

426
00:34:28,000 --> 00:34:31,000
And again, we get on the 19 again and there's other.

427
00:34:31,000 --> 00:34:37,000
I'm sorry, this is by Fleet Farmmen. This would be just west of highway 19 or at the interstate, excuse me, on highway 19.

428
00:34:37,000 --> 00:34:41,000
That seems to also be a common spot for crashes.

429
00:34:41,000 --> 00:34:54,000
So we use that. We look at the times they'll break it down further and pull out the time windows of when the incidents are actually happening so we can make sure that we are there to try to do it.

430
00:34:54,000 --> 00:35:00,000
Last thing I just wanted to bring to your attention tonight is some of the issues we're starting to see.

431
00:35:00,000 --> 00:35:07,000
And we put this on our social media page, but just trying to bring community awareness to the e-bikes and everything else.

432
00:35:07,000 --> 00:35:15,000
E-bikes, obviously, they're legal to have. You can ride in the street. They're subject to the rules of the road. You got to stop and stop signs, all that stuff, just like a regular bicycle.

433
00:35:15,000 --> 00:35:26,000
But we're starting to see this become onto the trail system, which is okay until you zoom up behind somebody and you scare somebody, you know, out of their sneakers.

434
00:35:26,000 --> 00:35:30,000
So we're trying to curb this. We've been out on the trails a little bit more already.

435
00:35:30,000 --> 00:35:36,000
Once the weather gets nicer, we know that any of you will get in and out. We'll probably be able to more, but we're trying to just spread the word.

436
00:35:37,000 --> 00:35:49,000
These and the scooters are the same thing, right? It's just that whole being respectful of people in their environment so that everybody can enjoy the amenities the village has to offer.

437
00:35:49,000 --> 00:35:55,000
The one that gets to be challenging because everybody wants to argue about is these.

438
00:35:55,000 --> 00:36:03,000
These are technically illegal to ride anywhere on a village path. They can't be on the sidewalk and unless they're modified, they can't be on the streets.

439
00:36:03,000 --> 00:36:09,000
So we're seeing more and more kids that have these. You can write them on private property if you have permission of the property owner.

440
00:36:09,000 --> 00:36:18,000
But realistically, these are not legal to be on the street. Some of them go upwards of 35 miles an hour, which is very problematic.

441
00:36:18,000 --> 00:36:27,000
Unless you have a driver's license, you technically can't operate these on the street. And even with a driver's license, they're not street legal because they don't have brake lights.

442
00:36:28,000 --> 00:36:34,000
They don't have blinkers, a headlight, a horn, all the things that are required to make it operational on the street.

443
00:36:34,000 --> 00:36:40,000
So we're asking is if, you know, I'm sure everybody's going to be calling you about these types of things.

444
00:36:40,000 --> 00:36:46,000
We put it on Facebook and got a little lambasted. The captain tried to respond to some of the comments to the awareness.

445
00:36:46,000 --> 00:36:52,000
We're trying to do this through awareness, trying to avoid getting to a part where we have to confiscate these things when they're found on the street.

446
00:36:52,000 --> 00:36:58,000
But, I mean, it was the other day, it was off, off day was a weekend.

447
00:36:58,000 --> 00:37:06,000
And there had to be about light of about six to eight kids riding next about the railroad track between Holom Street and Vinburn.

448
00:37:06,000 --> 00:37:12,000
I called and they went over there, kind of grabbed one or two and just kind of talked to them, but we're trying to avoid that.

449
00:37:12,000 --> 00:37:18,000
I mean, I was coming out of conservancy play or coming up River Road off a Windsor Road earlier that same day.

450
00:37:18,000 --> 00:37:27,000
Made a call because the kids came out of the construction site where they were probably just having a good old time down there until the developer comes back to say what happened.

451
00:37:27,000 --> 00:37:36,000
And now they're on the trail, right? And it's just, I get it. Parents bought it. It's fun. I'm not saying I don't want kids to be able to have fun.

452
00:37:36,000 --> 00:37:42,000
I just wanted to be safe. My worry, our worry is that somebody's out on the road in this thing.

453
00:37:42,000 --> 00:37:49,000
They're going to get hit by a car because they just don't follow the rules of the road. They're not visibly unidentifiable and all those things.

454
00:37:49,000 --> 00:37:54,000
So we're trying to get the word out about these. They're really marketed. They're off highway motorcycles more than they are.

455
00:37:54,000 --> 00:38:03,000
So it's a toy more than it is a vehicle to be in the street. So that's what I have for you tonight.

456
00:38:03,000 --> 00:38:08,000
Actually, last, I'll just do the update. If that's OK, just right now. It's sort of to come back to it later.

457
00:38:08,000 --> 00:38:16,000
But one of the things is I'm on the board for Wisconsin Chiefs. So one of the things I get to do is go test the final legislation.

458
00:38:16,000 --> 00:38:23,000
Yesterday was an interesting day. I was down there when the governor signed the crypto bill. So that will help in a lot of different ways.

459
00:38:23,000 --> 00:38:32,000
The crypto bill will make it illegal, basically, or it'll restrict the amount of money people can put into a crypto machine like a crypto ATM.

460
00:38:32,000 --> 00:38:37,000
Think about our gas stations or I think East Hardware has one as well. There might be one of Walgreens.

461
00:38:37,000 --> 00:38:48,000
So it restricts it to $1,000 a day, which let's face it. That's throwing $50,000 cash on the scam into those machines. It can be a lifesaver.

462
00:38:48,000 --> 00:39:00,000
So that bill was signed into law yesterday. And that's it'll be a good one for all of us, especially with when the captain and I went down to testify in that legislation in the Senate.

463
00:39:01,000 --> 00:39:10,000
We were at about $300,000 in loss of the community and that was within the last six weeks. So when these things happen, they haven't big.

464
00:39:10,000 --> 00:39:13,000
So now I think that's it. Unless there's questions.

465
00:39:13,000 --> 00:39:17,000
Questions from board members.

466
00:39:17,000 --> 00:39:19,000
Go ahead.

467
00:39:20,000 --> 00:39:31,000
This was a great report. Just a quick question about one of the programs you guys used to use tonight. I know we haven't seen it in a while, but the mock crash that you guys would do with the high school drama.

468
00:39:31,000 --> 00:39:42,000
Do you guys still do that? Are you planning on bringing that back? Because I know it included crash, but it was also an opportunity to talk to our kiddos about drinking and different things that nature.

469
00:39:42,000 --> 00:39:52,000
We had a couple of incidences with kids dying from alcohol poison and different things of that nature. So that was the first question. The last question that I have is with these bikes.

470
00:39:52,000 --> 00:40:07,000
Have you noticed an uptick of these bikes since the bike track on the other side of the highway has closed? And is that something we need to worry about with those kiddos not having, you know, a place to get that energy out and also do that activity now.

471
00:40:07,000 --> 00:40:20,000
Yeah. As to the bikes, I think it's just they become more popular lately. I wouldn't attribute it to one thing closing or the other with those. Again, if it doesn't have pedals, it's not a bicycle.

472
00:40:20,000 --> 00:40:36,000
It's a motorcycle. So it's the tricky thing with that. And as far as the mock crash, we've talked with the school about do they want to continue to do it. They've done like a different iteration of it, not bringing out a crushed car and all that kind of stuff and doing the role playing thing.

473
00:40:36,000 --> 00:40:46,000
But just having time to talk to kiddos and the patients and kiddos to the young adults in the high school, just about some of the dangers of impaired driving and making smart choices.

474
00:40:46,000 --> 00:40:51,000
I don't know what that looks like in the future.

475
00:40:51,000 --> 00:40:56,000
Anything else to share?

476
00:40:56,000 --> 00:40:59,000
Great report, Chief.

477
00:40:59,000 --> 00:41:10,000
I wanted to circle back to the Citizens Academy and say that when I did it in 2022, I went in with a great appreciation for officers and what you do for us.

478
00:41:10,000 --> 00:41:13,000
And then when I was in it, I learned a lot.

479
00:41:13,000 --> 00:41:24,000
And I just wanted to say that for anyone that's listening to this, that I would encourage anyone to go through the program because there's just so much there that you don't know and learn.

480
00:41:24,000 --> 00:41:36,000
And coming out of the program upon the completion, I felt that I just really came out with even a greater appreciation.

481
00:41:36,000 --> 00:41:40,000
So like I said, I would definitely recommend the program to anyone.

482
00:41:40,000 --> 00:41:42,000
And I did have a question though.

483
00:41:42,000 --> 00:41:51,000
How long have we been using the crime or have you been using the crime mapping software because I don't recall seeing anything in that program about that.

484
00:41:51,000 --> 00:41:53,000
And I would think that'd be kind of interesting.

485
00:41:53,000 --> 00:42:01,000
Yeah, we've had different versions of it. The maps that you saw were from DOTs from their community maps. I believe that's where those came from.

486
00:42:01,000 --> 00:42:11,000
We also have it through Lexus Nexus through our MS software so we can search for crime a different way.

487
00:42:11,000 --> 00:42:21,000
There is a community portal available that I could launch on that. I just haven't done it because it's too specific to address.

488
00:42:21,000 --> 00:42:27,000
So it will almost show exactly where something happened and I don't want to out anybody at their house if something happened there.

489
00:42:27,000 --> 00:42:32,000
So that's why I haven't launched into the community map side of it.

490
00:42:32,000 --> 00:42:37,000
But we do have a way to do it for the PD for the officers.

491
00:42:37,000 --> 00:42:49,000
If we start looking like theft from autos, if we start looking at a trend of kids that decide to go through the village and try to see whose cars open on their driveways at night, we can try to map that kind of stuff home.

492
00:42:49,000 --> 00:42:58,000
And that's the other contact training I was mentioning before. That'll be one of those enhanced type of data awareness pieces that we'll get into.

493
00:42:58,000 --> 00:43:00,000
Thank you.

494
00:43:00,000 --> 00:43:04,000
Thank you, Jan. Anybody else?

495
00:43:04,000 --> 00:43:07,000
I've got one question for you.

496
00:43:07,000 --> 00:43:12,000
You mentioned the number of crashes and you mentioned three different hotspots.

497
00:43:12,000 --> 00:43:21,000
I wonder if you could speak more of that. Do you know how many crashes there were or could you share that with us and email if you don't know at the top of your head?

498
00:43:21,000 --> 00:43:25,000
Yeah, I don't know that number specifically, but I'll get that information for you.

499
00:43:25,000 --> 00:43:31,000
It's going to be 1951 is the biggest frequency. And then after that, it's going to be the pick and save parking lot.

500
00:43:31,000 --> 00:43:34,000
It seems that we get a lot of property damage crashes there.

501
00:43:34,000 --> 00:43:39,000
But they tend to be property damage. We haven't had too many injuries yet.

502
00:43:39,000 --> 00:43:42,000
Yeah, we do get the injury crash occasionally.

503
00:43:42,000 --> 00:43:49,000
What's really helped is that four way stop sign had been burned in North town because we were getting proper injury crashes are pretty consistently.

504
00:43:49,000 --> 00:43:55,000
That's kind of resolved. If we do get a crash, it's mostly property damage, because obviously it's low speed coming out of the stop sign.

505
00:43:55,000 --> 00:44:00,000
But yeah, most of the most of our crashes are property crashes.

506
00:44:00,000 --> 00:44:04,000
Thank you very much.

507
00:44:05,000 --> 00:44:17,000
I just thought of another thing. I was wondering if you could clarify or maybe someone else might need to clarify this going back to the ordinance that we have for the park trails.

508
00:44:17,000 --> 00:44:24,000
So, e-bikes are allowed. And I think we have an exception in there for scooters.

509
00:44:25,000 --> 00:44:34,000
But you're saying if it's a cycle and I like what you said there, if it doesn't have pedals, it's a cycle.

510
00:44:34,000 --> 00:44:39,000
We specifically are not allowing cycles, no matter what.

511
00:44:39,000 --> 00:44:41,000
Correct. Is that true? Yes. Okay.

512
00:44:41,000 --> 00:44:45,000
I'm looking at the house of legal wisdom to see if he has a different answer.

513
00:44:45,000 --> 00:44:50,000
I believe that to be true.

514
00:44:51,000 --> 00:44:54,000
The easiest way, like there's different classes of e-bikes and all that kind of stuff.

515
00:44:54,000 --> 00:44:56,000
And it's generally gets in the speed and things of that nature.

516
00:44:56,000 --> 00:45:00,000
But we really look at if it doesn't have pedals, it's not a bicycle.

517
00:45:00,000 --> 00:45:03,000
And that's the easiest way to tell the young officer to differentiate.

518
00:45:03,000 --> 00:45:07,000
If it's got pedals, it's likely an e-bike still got to follow the rules of the road.

519
00:45:07,000 --> 00:45:13,000
Got to be curious and respectful and prudent and reasonable on the trails.

520
00:45:13,000 --> 00:45:18,000
We have that little note on the police website saying if it doesn't have pedals,

521
00:45:18,000 --> 00:45:23,000
because I did kind of read it, but I don't recall that. I might have just missed it.

522
00:45:23,000 --> 00:45:31,000
I'll confirm it. Yeah, I just, I think that would be good to have if we, if you don't, because it's so, it's so clear.

523
00:45:31,000 --> 00:45:34,000
Thank you.

524
00:45:34,000 --> 00:45:36,000
Thank you.

525
00:45:36,000 --> 00:45:40,000
Looks like we're good. You haven't sometimes.

526
00:45:40,000 --> 00:45:42,000
Okay. Thank you, chief.

527
00:45:42,000 --> 00:45:46,000
Item 5.1 is administration update.

528
00:45:46,000 --> 00:45:50,000
A couple of items here.

529
00:45:50,000 --> 00:45:53,000
First, Brandon Hennes is in the crowd.

530
00:45:53,000 --> 00:45:58,000
He will be starting the finance director position, April 22nd.

531
00:45:58,000 --> 00:46:03,000
And we'll then be moving to the assistant finance director role.

532
00:46:04,000 --> 00:46:16,000
We received a notice from the Wisconsin DOT department transportation that they launched a website for the interstate corridor project.

533
00:46:16,000 --> 00:46:24,000
So if you remember that goes from approximately highway 30, all the way up to, I believe, Austin.

534
00:46:25,000 --> 00:46:32,000
And so that website, I can give you the, the web address here, where we can post a link to it.

535
00:46:32,000 --> 00:46:35,000
Is I 39, 90, 94.

536
00:46:35,000 --> 00:46:39,000
Project that Wisconsin.

537
00:46:39,000 --> 00:46:41,000
Dot dot go.

538
00:46:41,000 --> 00:46:43,000
Again, we'll post a link to it.

539
00:46:43,000 --> 00:46:48,000
But, you know, that, that website is going to explore the whole project.

540
00:46:49,000 --> 00:46:57,000
Some of the items that we're already talking about beyond the county V interchange is the river road bridge.

541
00:46:57,000 --> 00:47:03,000
And how that potentially is going to look like here in the near future.

542
00:47:03,000 --> 00:47:08,000
We received a grant award from the Wisconsin.

543
00:47:09,000 --> 00:47:18,000
City's County Management Association for $5,000 to offset costs associated with our internship program.

544
00:47:18,000 --> 00:47:25,000
Gavin, as reported earlier this year, Gavin, is our management intern.

545
00:47:25,000 --> 00:47:30,000
And so that'll be helpful for that program.

546
00:47:30,000 --> 00:47:35,000
You have, as part of your, your packet or on your desk.

547
00:47:36,000 --> 00:47:39,000
A article from business view magazine.

548
00:47:39,000 --> 00:47:45,000
So the village of divorce was featured in the March edition.

549
00:47:45,000 --> 00:47:53,000
Of that magazine that magazine highlights top managed communities based on innovative management sustainable growth.

550
00:47:53,000 --> 00:47:59,000
Infrastructure development and economic resilience. So it's a good, it's a good read.

551
00:48:00,000 --> 00:48:07,000
And then lastly here, the chamber of commerce is having their state of the chamber.

552
00:48:07,000 --> 00:48:14,000
On April 16, which is next Thursday for me 30 to 10 30.

553
00:48:14,000 --> 00:48:19,000
As a member of the chamber, the board is invited to attend that event.

554
00:48:19,000 --> 00:48:28,000
They do or would like registrations for that. So if you are interested in going, please let me know and I can register you for that.

555
00:48:29,000 --> 00:48:34,000
That's all I have.

556
00:48:34,000 --> 00:48:36,000
Thank you, Bill.

557
00:48:36,000 --> 00:48:39,000
Thank you.

558
00:48:39,000 --> 00:48:45,000
Yeah, I can just report on the fact that our auditors from Baker Tilly have been working on our annual audits over the last two weeks.

559
00:48:45,000 --> 00:48:51,000
And we have pretty much wrapped up that work. So they will be putting together our state report and our PSC report.

560
00:48:51,000 --> 00:48:57,000
And typically we'll have the final report ready to present to you in June.

561
00:48:57,000 --> 00:48:59,000
Thank you very much.

562
00:48:59,000 --> 00:49:05,000
Item 5.3, I believe was done by chief already.

563
00:49:05,000 --> 00:49:11,000
5.4 public services update. Is anybody filling in or online?

564
00:49:11,000 --> 00:49:18,000
Item 5.5 community development update.

565
00:49:19,000 --> 00:49:25,000
A couple of things. There was a flurry of legislation that was signed over the last week or so.

566
00:49:25,000 --> 00:49:31,000
Couple housing related that just want to share Wisconsin Act 173.

567
00:49:31,000 --> 00:49:40,000
As you recall, we just took an affordable housing extension for a year. Act 173 allows that extension to go up to two years.

568
00:49:40,000 --> 00:49:47,000
Among a bunch of other housing related activities related to streamlining approvals.

569
00:49:47,000 --> 00:49:55,000
Wisconsin Act 183 is a tax credit to employers providing childcare, which I know some of our local businesses also do that. So let's benefit from them.

570
00:49:55,000 --> 00:50:05,000
Wisconsin Act 235 allows the creation of residential tax increment districts. So this is a new thing. This is geared towards workforce housing.

571
00:50:05,000 --> 00:50:12,000
This would be specifically for developments that are entirely consisting of owner occupied single family or two family.

572
00:50:13,000 --> 00:50:23,000
With a set of criteria for smaller lot sizes, size of the single story residences, two story residences aimed at affordability.

573
00:50:23,000 --> 00:50:35,000
Those tip districts are actually exempt from the 12% cap, which as you recall, the state's such a limit of having 12% of equalized value within tip districts. This is exempt for that.

574
00:50:35,000 --> 00:50:44,000
However, any residential tip district has, there's a 3% overall equalized value that can be within those community wide.

575
00:50:44,000 --> 00:50:47,000
So that's a big shift there.

576
00:50:47,000 --> 00:51:03,000
And then there were a couple Wisconsin Act 237 and 239 that were related to WEDA, which is the Wisconsin Housing and Economic Development Authority to help some of their workforce home loan programs created a workforce home loan program.

577
00:51:03,000 --> 00:51:08,000
And then clean up some of their other programs for housing.

578
00:51:08,000 --> 00:51:19,000
So a lot of activity at the legislature and then locally one update is if you go to the corner of B and Main Street right now, you'll see a fence around the CDA property.

579
00:51:19,000 --> 00:51:29,000
That is, I think that went in place yesterday, just to secure the site and then we'll be getting some signage upon that in the near future.

580
00:51:29,000 --> 00:51:37,000
Construction is still a ways away. So if anybody asks what's going on there, it's simply just a fence to secure the site.

581
00:51:37,000 --> 00:51:39,000
Thank you, Alex.

582
00:51:39,000 --> 00:51:47,000
And sorry, could I ask you again, what was the act number that was the affordable housing?

583
00:51:47,000 --> 00:51:54,000
Wisconsin Act 173 was the one for the affordable housing extension. Is that what the one that you're referring to?

584
00:51:54,000 --> 00:52:06,000
TIFF one is what I'm saying. The TIFF one. So that's, yeah, that's the affordable housing extension and that increases it to two years. The other one was specifically creating residential tax increment districts.

585
00:52:06,000 --> 00:52:12,000
Not necessarily within affordable affordability metric and that was Wisconsin Act 235.

586
00:52:12,000 --> 00:52:17,000
Thank you.

587
00:52:18,000 --> 00:52:21,000
And administrative services update, Kelly.

588
00:52:21,000 --> 00:52:26,000
I have an update on the election, which was.

589
00:52:26,000 --> 00:52:33,000
Very good day. We had a total participation of 3,458 voters.

590
00:52:33,000 --> 00:52:44,000
So we had a turnout rate of 44%, which is very impressive. I think last spring, we had a turnout of 38%.

591
00:52:45,000 --> 00:52:57,000
So it was a good day. And I'd like to just say thank you to all of our election workers and staff that put so much work and effort into making that day very successful.

592
00:52:57,000 --> 00:53:05,000
The next thing is we are in the process of changing our agenda management program from on base to Granicus.

593
00:53:06,000 --> 00:53:14,000
We've just started launch internal training with the staff members that are responsible for making agendas.

594
00:53:15,000 --> 00:53:24,000
The hope is the hat that will be up and running in June. So I'll provide you more information when we get a little closer and we.

595
00:53:24,000 --> 00:53:30,000
I have more answers as to exactly when and we'll show you how the new program works.

596
00:53:31,000 --> 00:53:39,000
It is a web based program. So there will be no more app that tends to have issues.

597
00:53:39,000 --> 00:53:42,000
So more on that to come.

598
00:53:42,000 --> 00:53:53,000
And then the last thing is I received an email from the league about a training that they're offering for elected officials and municipal staff.

599
00:53:53,000 --> 00:54:01,000
And it's also it's a training and a round table. It is on April 22nd in the village of Oregon.

600
00:54:01,000 --> 00:54:05,000
The training is going to include civility and govern and governance.

601
00:54:05,000 --> 00:54:10,000
Intro to Roberts rules and a hands on mock meeting.

602
00:54:10,000 --> 00:54:16,000
The training will be from two to five and then from five to seven is a round table with a light dinner.

603
00:54:16,000 --> 00:54:21,000
So if you are interested in going to that, please let me know and I can get you signed up for that.

604
00:54:22,000 --> 00:54:24,000
And that's all I got.

605
00:54:24,000 --> 00:54:26,000
Thank you, Kelly.

606
00:54:26,000 --> 00:54:27,000
Question. Yeah.

607
00:54:27,000 --> 00:54:30,000
I just had a mental block.

608
00:54:34,000 --> 00:54:38,000
Because you had three things in there, right? So it was the vote. Oh, the voting.

609
00:54:38,000 --> 00:54:40,000
So I had a resident.

610
00:54:40,000 --> 00:54:45,000
Tell me that one of our voting counting machines went down at the library.

611
00:54:46,000 --> 00:54:53,000
And on that on the day of voting. And if that's true, what happened with that machine and what's the fix.

612
00:54:53,000 --> 00:54:57,000
Yeah, so we did have a there. It's called the DS 200.

613
00:54:57,000 --> 00:55:00,000
It glitched.

614
00:55:00,000 --> 00:55:05,000
And as somebody was putting in a ballot, it just kind of froze.

615
00:55:05,000 --> 00:55:12,000
So it caused a little bit of a backup in the library, but we were able to because we do have two of those machines at each.

616
00:55:13,000 --> 00:55:19,000
Pulling location. So we were able to kind of pivot and have the ballots put into the absentee.

617
00:55:19,000 --> 00:55:22,000
The machine we use for absentee's.

618
00:55:22,000 --> 00:55:30,000
So they were all counted and the machine had to be powered down and then it powered back up and all of the data was still there.

619
00:55:30,000 --> 00:55:32,000
We do do a count.

620
00:55:32,000 --> 00:55:39,000
A balance count with the number of ballots that have been put into the tabulators versus the number of voters.

621
00:55:40,000 --> 00:55:45,000
That have come through every hour to make sure that our numbers are right on.

622
00:55:45,000 --> 00:55:52,000
And after we had gotten everybody a little cleared out, we did do a count and we were right back on.

623
00:55:52,000 --> 00:55:57,000
So it was just a glitch in the machine.

624
00:55:57,000 --> 00:56:00,000
Very nerve racking. Thank you. Thank you.

625
00:56:00,000 --> 00:56:07,000
Thank you for all you do and for all and thank you to all of your staff for all you do with handling the voting.

626
00:56:08,000 --> 00:56:16,000
And I will echo that because I know I talked to you at some time around six and you're gauging the be done by nine.

627
00:56:16,000 --> 00:56:22,000
And I think you had it posted by like about nine 20 so very impressive.

628
00:56:22,000 --> 00:56:29,000
Five point seven recreation community enrichment update.

629
00:56:30,000 --> 00:56:35,000
Trisha gave me an update this week that we have less than 10 spots left for the dragon aren't fair.

630
00:56:35,000 --> 00:56:40,000
And we have this year will be going completely around the park.

631
00:56:40,000 --> 00:56:46,000
So we are adding additional stalls this year for artists. That means we're ahead of where we were last year already.

632
00:56:46,000 --> 00:56:53,000
And then she's also in the process of working on the America to 50 mural projects.

633
00:56:53,000 --> 00:56:58,000
So we have about 600 tiles that we're looking to complete to complete that project.

634
00:56:58,000 --> 00:57:04,000
So still looking to sell some basically the cost for those tiles.

635
00:57:04,000 --> 00:57:09,000
Any funds that we may go back into future public art campaigns.

636
00:57:09,000 --> 00:57:19,000
So it was kind of started with the dragons and then we use that to be able to do this project and hope to continue to be able to do more public art campaigns in the future.

637
00:57:20,000 --> 00:57:29,000
And if you haven't heard about the America to 50 when that mural is done, it will go on the Western wall of the fire station here.

638
00:57:29,000 --> 00:57:33,000
And so we'll we'll keep it up as long as it will look pretty.

639
00:57:33,000 --> 00:57:41,000
But we're looking forward to that goal is to unveil it at 4th of July, but we've got a lot of tiles left.

640
00:57:41,000 --> 00:57:43,000
So if you know anyone spread the word, please.

641
00:57:44,000 --> 00:57:54,000
You soccer is started this week. We have around 350 kids that are signed up through you six through you 10. So I'll be another busy season with that.

642
00:57:54,000 --> 00:58:00,000
And we're also getting the AC started up. So we have an in staff training this weekend.

643
00:58:00,000 --> 00:58:03,000
The high school is hosting a quad out of the athletic complex.

644
00:58:03,000 --> 00:58:10,000
So we'll do some training prior to that and then they'll stay open for that quad weather weather pending.

645
00:58:11,000 --> 00:58:18,000
And then we're getting close to getting the community garden started up right now. We only have three organic plots left.

646
00:58:18,000 --> 00:58:25,000
And then our elevated plots are open, but otherwise everything else is on full. So it's getting busy.

647
00:58:26,000 --> 00:58:28,000
Thank you very much.

648
00:58:28,000 --> 00:58:32,000
And 5.8 communications upstate.

649
00:58:33,000 --> 00:58:41,000
So last week Thursday was the community projects open house. So we had about 35 to 40 people in attendance for that.

650
00:58:41,000 --> 00:58:52,000
Lots of positive feedback from those that attended. If you did miss the event, all of the information can be found on engaged to forest 2026 community projects.

651
00:58:52,000 --> 00:59:01,000
And then also this week we wrapped up interviews for our communications coordinator position looking to hire a person at the end of this month.

652
00:59:03,000 --> 00:59:06,000
Very nice. Thank you.

653
00:59:06,000 --> 00:59:13,000
And number six, any other business that lawfully comes before the committee for discussion?

654
00:59:13,000 --> 00:59:16,000
Seeing none.

655
00:59:16,000 --> 00:59:26,000
Number seven is adjournment. And unless somebody stops me, I will say we were adjourned by unanimous consent.

656
00:59:27,000 --> 00:59:32,000
By 59, so it can be six o'clock. I would say.

657
00:59:32,000 --> 00:59:41,000
I guess a little authority that I have is a trustee. I'll say we'll take five minutes and re adjourned at 6.05.

658
00:59:41,000 --> 00:59:45,000
Everybody good with that? Thank you.

659
00:59:46,000 --> 00:59:55,000
Okay, we will call the.

660
00:59:55,000 --> 01:00:01,000
Thursday, April 9 regular village board of the village of the forest to order.

661
01:00:01,000 --> 01:00:06,000
First item today.

662
01:00:07,000 --> 01:00:23,000
Because of the vacancy in the village presidency, we will need a trustee to preside over the speeding. So if I can get a motion to nominate a trustee to run the meeting.

663
01:00:23,000 --> 01:00:26,000
I nominate Jim.

664
01:00:26,000 --> 01:00:29,000
I have a second.

665
01:00:29,000 --> 01:00:33,000
I'll second that.

666
01:00:33,000 --> 01:00:35,000
All those in favor.

667
01:00:36,000 --> 01:00:41,000
Any against.

668
01:00:41,000 --> 01:00:43,000
Motion passes.

669
01:00:43,000 --> 01:01:00,000
Thank you.

670
01:01:00,000 --> 01:01:06,000
Keep building everybody. And I do want to note that the meeting is called the order at 6.06.

671
01:01:06,000 --> 01:01:09,000
Stand this clerk.

672
01:01:09,000 --> 01:01:13,000
And Kelly, you have roll call on the summit.

673
01:01:13,000 --> 01:01:21,000
And recitation of the pledge. I'm going to ask to she directly lead us.

674
01:01:30,000 --> 01:01:44,000
Thank you.

675
01:01:44,000 --> 01:01:48,000
Announcements, there's none on the agenda.

676
01:01:48,000 --> 01:01:52,000
So I'm going to move to the consent agenda.

677
01:01:52,000 --> 01:01:59,000
There are three items. Does anybody wish to take anything out of the consent agenda?

678
01:02:00,000 --> 01:02:11,000
I'm seeing none, but I would ask myself if we could take the 5.2 out.

679
01:02:11,000 --> 01:02:19,000
So consent agenda. I think that just happens when I ask.

680
01:02:19,000 --> 01:02:25,000
So consent agenda currently is 5.1.1 and 5.1.2.

681
01:02:25,000 --> 01:02:29,000
Is there anybody motion by Brad? Is there a second?

682
01:02:29,000 --> 01:02:33,000
Second by Jan.

683
01:02:33,000 --> 01:02:36,000
All those in favor, please signify by saying aye.

684
01:02:36,000 --> 01:02:38,000
Aye.

685
01:02:38,000 --> 01:02:42,000
Any opposed? Motion passes.

686
01:02:42,000 --> 01:02:44,000
5.2.

687
01:02:44,000 --> 01:02:49,000
I guess I'll ask if anybody else has discussion or I'll bring up my point.

688
01:02:49,000 --> 01:02:52,000
Go ahead, Brad.

689
01:02:52,000 --> 01:02:57,000
Yeah, I was curious. It said 30% of gross revenue goes to Lions Club.

690
01:02:57,000 --> 01:03:06,000
I was wondering how much did that come out to last year for the percentage of the net revenue.

691
01:03:06,000 --> 01:03:10,000
Meaning like how much did we pay them or just total?

692
01:03:10,000 --> 01:03:17,000
Yeah, just total percentage of net that 30% of gross come out to.

693
01:03:17,000 --> 01:03:21,000
I would have to look at the total numbers of what our revenue. I don't have those numbers with me.

694
01:03:21,000 --> 01:03:27,000
Like currently I would have to look at that based off of like sponsorship because that would be other revenues that we would get in.

695
01:03:27,000 --> 01:03:35,000
That they don't have from and they wouldn't get any of the percentage of the vendor fees as well that we collected for many of the food vendors.

696
01:03:35,000 --> 01:03:42,000
Okay, so there was a substantial amount of other revenue remaining after they were paid.

697
01:03:42,000 --> 01:03:43,000
Correct.

698
01:03:44,000 --> 01:03:47,000
Anything else, Brad?

699
01:03:47,000 --> 01:03:52,000
And the one thing I want to bring up on a question.

700
01:03:52,000 --> 01:03:54,000
Sorry, Janet.

701
01:03:54,000 --> 01:04:00,000
I'm clause 9. It talked about a prohibiting complimentary beverages.

702
01:04:00,000 --> 01:04:05,000
I just know in years past when I volunteered for that,

703
01:04:06,000 --> 01:04:11,000
I should put volunteer in court because you used to get free beverages when you volunteered.

704
01:04:11,000 --> 01:04:15,000
Is that a practice that's no longer being done?

705
01:04:15,000 --> 01:04:18,000
Yeah, correct, because since we're doing that profit share,

706
01:04:18,000 --> 01:04:24,000
if they were giving away complimentary beverages, we would be taking that loss as the village.

707
01:04:24,000 --> 01:04:27,000
So it's not something that would be permitted anymore.

708
01:04:27,000 --> 01:04:32,000
Okay, I just wanted to clarify that that's the way it should be written.

709
01:04:33,000 --> 01:04:38,000
Yes, okay, so we started this last year with the Lions Club.

710
01:04:38,000 --> 01:04:43,000
And when I went through and looked at the contract for this year,

711
01:04:43,000 --> 01:04:46,000
I didn't notice any changes.

712
01:04:46,000 --> 01:04:47,000
Were there any changes?

713
01:04:47,000 --> 01:04:53,000
Oh, we had one slight change, which was when we would provide payment to them.

714
01:04:53,000 --> 01:04:57,000
I think last year was that we would provide payment by July 15th and we were like,

715
01:04:57,000 --> 01:05:02,000
that's not just really just not a realistic deadline from everything happening after the fourth.

716
01:05:02,000 --> 01:05:06,000
So I think we extended it to like August 15th, we gave ourselves another month.

717
01:05:06,000 --> 01:05:12,000
So they had no disagreement with that change. I think that was the only change.

718
01:05:12,000 --> 01:05:15,000
Thank you.

719
01:05:15,000 --> 01:05:20,000
Thank you. Any more questions? Are we looking for a motion?

720
01:05:20,000 --> 01:05:26,000
I'll make a motion to approve 5.2.1.

721
01:05:26,000 --> 01:05:28,000
Thank you, Jan. Is there a second?

722
01:05:28,000 --> 01:05:30,000
Second.

723
01:05:30,000 --> 01:05:32,000
Thank you, Brad.

724
01:05:32,000 --> 01:05:34,000
Any further discussion?

725
01:05:34,000 --> 01:05:42,000
Seeing none. And again, Alicia, if you do have something, please speak up because you're not always on screen.

726
01:05:42,000 --> 01:05:44,000
Thank you.

727
01:05:44,000 --> 01:05:51,000
So seeing none and hearing none, I'll ask everybody in favor. Please signify by saying aye.

728
01:05:51,000 --> 01:05:52,000
Aye.

729
01:05:53,000 --> 01:05:58,000
Motion passes 6-0.

730
01:05:58,000 --> 01:06:04,000
Seven point, sorry, public appearances looks like we have one.

731
01:06:04,000 --> 01:06:05,000
Okay, thank you.

732
01:06:05,000 --> 01:06:14,000
So we currently do not have any public appearances that are not under items.

733
01:06:15,000 --> 01:06:16,000
Yep.

734
01:06:16,000 --> 01:06:24,000
So presentation 7.1 is a presentation regarding the deforest Windsor joint housing report.

735
01:06:24,000 --> 01:06:30,000
And I don't know what's saying that it's Mark. So I'm assuming Mark's on line or is that?

736
01:06:30,000 --> 01:06:34,000
Unfortunately, I have the honor of playing Mark tonight.

737
01:06:34,000 --> 01:06:39,000
Mark is dealing with the illness and then combined single parenting this evening.

738
01:06:39,000 --> 01:06:41,000
So he's not able to join.

739
01:06:42,000 --> 01:06:47,000
Included in your packets is a joint report that we do annually with the village of Windsor,

740
01:06:47,000 --> 01:06:50,000
village of DeForest and the DeForest area school district.

741
01:06:50,000 --> 01:06:53,000
So it's a cost share between the three communities.

742
01:06:53,000 --> 01:06:59,000
Essentially looking at housing and treating the entire area as one housing market.

743
01:06:59,000 --> 01:07:02,000
A couple of big takeaways from the report itself.

744
01:07:02,000 --> 01:07:06,000
Lots of housing has been going up over the past couple of years.

745
01:07:06,000 --> 01:07:12,000
The majority of which at least in 2025 was in the form of multifamily residential and condos,

746
01:07:12,000 --> 01:07:14,000
particularly in DeForest.

747
01:07:14,000 --> 01:07:19,000
I will say that our community authorized building permits for over 600 multifamily units,

748
01:07:19,000 --> 01:07:22,000
which mainly was attributed to two developments.

749
01:07:22,000 --> 01:07:26,000
That would be a terrapin run, which is over on River Road.

750
01:07:26,000 --> 01:07:31,000
And then the springs at DeForest, which is by Fleet Farm between those two.

751
01:07:31,000 --> 01:07:34,000
There were over 500 permits just for those two developments alone.

752
01:07:35,000 --> 01:07:43,000
Continuing trend noted in the report is the availability of single family lots for development continues to decline.

753
01:07:43,000 --> 01:07:47,000
Although I will say that there've been over the past couple of weeks,

754
01:07:47,000 --> 01:07:52,000
some positive developments in that respect, Homestead Edition,

755
01:07:52,000 --> 01:08:02,000
which is south of 19 by DeForest yards in the Savannah Brooks neighborhood there has seen lot sales over the past couple of weeks as well as building permit activity.

756
01:08:03,000 --> 01:08:11,000
Rivers turn phase three, which is in Conservancy Place has also seen permit activity perk up this early this year.

757
01:08:11,000 --> 01:08:13,000
And then, excuse me.

758
01:08:13,000 --> 01:08:26,000
Last week, we had a staff meeting, which is an exciting development with a national builder who will be moving forward with building out the remaining lots and heritage gardens development as well.

759
01:08:26,000 --> 01:08:29,000
So that's been sent for a while. So these things go in cycles.

760
01:08:29,000 --> 01:08:33,000
I think we're excited to see the single family side of things parking up here.

761
01:08:33,000 --> 01:08:37,000
Certainly could still use some new subdivisions planned,

762
01:08:37,000 --> 01:08:42,000
but we've also had recently some productive conversations with the developers of the Knowles,

763
01:08:42,000 --> 01:08:49,000
which is again in Conservancy Place on River Road to move forward with potentially planning that area as well,

764
01:08:49,000 --> 01:08:52,000
which would, I believe it's roughly 140 to 150 lots.

765
01:08:52,000 --> 01:08:56,000
So again, the cyclical.

766
01:08:57,000 --> 01:09:14,000
Stick the real estate cycles are kind of shifting, I would say. And then the last thing that I'll point out in the report is the cost of single family homes, particularly new construction continues to rise as it does, frankly, in Dane County as a whole.

767
01:09:14,000 --> 01:09:25,000
So if there's any questions, happy to answer or talk about this as a whole, but I think the report does a good job of laying out the dynamics.

768
01:09:25,000 --> 01:09:29,000
Thank you, Alex questions board members.

769
01:09:29,000 --> 01:09:34,000
I have just one.

770
01:09:34,000 --> 01:09:37,000
You mentioned heritage gardens.

771
01:09:37,000 --> 01:09:45,000
I'm just curious if that national builder, are they planning on replanting or using the current plan?

772
01:09:45,000 --> 01:09:50,000
No, from the preliminary conversations that we'd have it be using the current.

773
01:09:50,000 --> 01:09:53,000
Very nice. Thank you, Alex.

774
01:09:54,000 --> 01:09:57,000
Anybody else?

775
01:09:57,000 --> 01:10:05,000
No old business. So new business is 9.1 resolution 2026 037.

776
01:10:05,000 --> 01:10:10,000
Resolution granting signature authority to the village administrator.

777
01:10:11,000 --> 01:10:25,000
Bill and Alan is up for the staff presentation followed by one public speaker Rebecca next time.

778
01:10:25,000 --> 01:10:37,000
So as you know, the village president seeds is currently vacant and until that seat gets appointed, we do have ongoing obligations that need to be executed.

779
01:10:37,000 --> 01:10:50,000
For example, I believe in February of this year, those board approved a number of contracts to be executed by the clerk of those president and the clerk.

780
01:10:50,000 --> 01:10:59,000
Those contracts have now been drafted and ready for signature. Unfortunately, unfortunately, no one else authorized to to execute them.

781
01:11:00,000 --> 01:11:05,000
Construction on these projects are at a standstill currently.

782
01:11:05,000 --> 01:11:17,000
And so that's what that's what we're asking for is for the board to authorize the village administrator to execute these contracts, these documents.

783
01:11:17,000 --> 01:11:25,000
And then to have that authority seized upon appointment of a village president.

784
01:11:25,000 --> 01:11:29,000
Thank you, Bill. Anything you want to add, Alan?

785
01:11:29,000 --> 01:11:40,000
The other thing that the resolution does is it delegates to the entire board, all of the other functions of the village president that are not involving just signing documents.

786
01:11:40,000 --> 01:11:47,000
So things like village president by statute of issues fireworks permits.

787
01:11:47,000 --> 01:11:52,000
The board would have to issue those until there's a village president in place.

788
01:11:53,000 --> 01:11:54,000
Thank you, Alan.

789
01:11:54,000 --> 01:12:03,000
So that is our staff presentation in item 9.1.2 is the public appearances.

790
01:12:03,000 --> 01:12:10,000
And we have one registered speaker, and that is Rebecca Witherspoon. Could you come up?

791
01:12:10,000 --> 01:12:17,000
And I believe this is three minutes. Is that correct?

792
01:12:18,000 --> 01:12:22,000
And I apologize for my voice, and I'm going to try hard not to cough.

793
01:12:22,000 --> 01:12:26,000
I'm just getting my voice back after almost a month.

794
01:12:26,000 --> 01:12:32,000
Name and facility name is Rebecca Witherspoon. My address is on my form.

795
01:12:32,000 --> 01:12:40,000
I am in support of granting signature authority to the village administrator during the temporary absence of a village president.

796
01:12:41,000 --> 01:12:45,000
And I encourage this board to vote in favor of this resolution.

797
01:12:45,000 --> 01:12:52,000
As far as I'm concerned, he has shown integrity in his job, and I think he is trustworthy for that.

798
01:12:52,000 --> 01:13:00,000
Secondly, I want to also publicly thank Trustee Alan for her time and service as a village trustee.

799
01:13:00,000 --> 01:13:07,000
She served with honor and integrity and a willingness to speak her mind, even when it was not easy or politically convenient.

800
01:13:08,000 --> 01:13:18,000
I also think it is important to say that too often in our community, political disagreements have crossed the line into personal attacks during this most recent election season.

801
01:13:18,000 --> 01:13:26,000
There were individuals and groups who, in my opinion, unfairly misrepresented Trustee Alan's record and character.

802
01:13:26,000 --> 01:13:34,000
One example was a suggestion that her previous resignation from the board somehow disqualified her from future service,

803
01:13:34,000 --> 01:13:41,000
when in reality she had stepped down during an incredibly difficult and tragic period in her personal life.

804
01:13:41,000 --> 01:13:44,000
But I guess the truth really doesn't matter anymore.

805
01:13:44,000 --> 01:13:50,000
Unfortunately, this kind of behavior has not been limited to Trustee Alan over the past year and a half.

806
01:13:50,000 --> 01:14:02,000
There has been a growing pattern of misinformation, personal attacks, and efforts to discredit Trustees and residents simply because they hold different political views.

807
01:14:02,000 --> 01:14:16,000
I know this personally, as y'all know, last month during public comments at the last board meeting, false claims were once again made about me why I resigned from this board last September.

808
01:14:16,000 --> 01:14:18,000
The truth is very simple.

809
01:14:18,000 --> 01:14:30,000
I resigned just 10 days after my husband unexpectedly died from cancer, which was a direct result of his exposure during Vietnam to Agent Orange.

810
01:14:30,000 --> 01:14:34,000
But again, I guess that truth doesn't matter.

811
01:14:34,000 --> 01:14:53,000
I was grieving them, and I still am grieving, and at the same time I no longer felt safe serving on this board due to threats because I had dared to vote to remove fluoride from our water.

812
01:14:53,000 --> 01:14:56,000
No one should feel that way while serving our community.

813
01:14:56,000 --> 01:15:03,000
My hope for this village is that we can move away from division, the partisanship, and the personal attacks.

814
01:15:03,000 --> 01:15:15,000
I hope we can get back to the place where people are judged by their ideas, their character, and their willingness to serve, not by political labels or loyalty to one group or ideology.

815
01:15:15,000 --> 01:15:30,000
I know that that may feel difficult right now, but I still believe it is possible, and I hope we will all work together for the betterment of our village. Thank you.

816
01:15:30,000 --> 01:15:36,000
Thank you Rebecca.

817
01:15:36,000 --> 01:15:44,000
So, item 9.1.3 discussion and possible action.

818
01:15:44,000 --> 01:15:49,000
And you are already doing what I was going to ask you to pull up the resolution.

819
01:15:49,000 --> 01:15:53,000
So, it's there.

820
01:15:53,000 --> 01:15:54,000
Okay.

821
01:15:54,000 --> 01:15:56,000
Is there discussion or motion?

822
01:15:57,000 --> 01:16:02,000
Motion to approve 2026 there, 037 second.

823
01:16:02,000 --> 01:16:05,000
Motion by Colleen, and seconded by Tashidra.

824
01:16:05,000 --> 01:16:09,000
Discussion, anybody?

825
01:16:09,000 --> 01:16:13,000
Seeing none, all those in favor, please signify by saying aye.

826
01:16:13,000 --> 01:16:14,000
Aye.

827
01:16:14,000 --> 01:16:16,000
Any opposed?

828
01:16:16,000 --> 01:16:19,000
Motion passes 6-0.

829
01:16:19,000 --> 01:16:20,000
Thank you.

830
01:16:21,000 --> 01:16:25,000
Item 9.2, as soon as I flip the sheet.

831
01:16:25,000 --> 01:16:30,000
Is resolution 2026, 038.

832
01:16:30,000 --> 01:16:37,000
A resolution establishing fees for building permits and inspection in the village of the forest.

833
01:16:37,000 --> 01:16:39,000
Is this who Alex?

834
01:16:39,000 --> 01:16:42,000
Yeah, so just brief overview.

835
01:16:42,000 --> 01:16:49,000
Last fall, we went out to RFP for new engineering, excuse me, building inspection services.

836
01:16:49,000 --> 01:16:56,000
We ended up continuing with general engineering company and executed a contract with them in January as part of that contract.

837
01:16:56,000 --> 01:17:01,000
There was an exhibit with an updated fee schedule for their services.

838
01:17:01,000 --> 01:17:11,000
And so what's in front of you tonight is an update to our posted what will be our posted fee schedule to align with what was in that contract.

839
01:17:11,000 --> 01:17:15,000
We also noted in the memo that's accompanying the materials in the packet.

840
01:17:15,000 --> 01:17:18,000
This is sort of our one of a broader update.

841
01:17:18,000 --> 01:17:23,000
It doesn't update some of our fees for development applications, some of that type of activity.

842
01:17:23,000 --> 01:17:28,000
We're hoping to bring you a more comprehensive update at a feature meeting,

843
01:17:28,000 --> 01:17:36,000
but this will align us with what our contractual obligation is currently.

844
01:17:36,000 --> 01:17:42,000
Thank you, Alex. There is no public appearances. So discussion and possible action.

845
01:17:42,000 --> 01:17:49,000
Is there any discussion from the board?

846
01:17:49,000 --> 01:17:52,000
Yes, I have one thing I want to ask.

847
01:17:52,000 --> 01:17:55,000
I noticed that some of the fees were going up.

848
01:17:55,000 --> 01:17:58,000
I'll say percentage wise quite a bit.

849
01:17:58,000 --> 01:18:03,000
And I'm wondering where those numbers came from.

850
01:18:03,000 --> 01:18:06,000
I can't find out a few, but I see your shake in your head.

851
01:18:06,000 --> 01:18:09,000
So I'm just a new know a few yourself.

852
01:18:09,000 --> 01:18:15,000
Yep. So these numbers are all born out of essentially what we're going to be charged by GC.

853
01:18:15,000 --> 01:18:18,000
So this is where they've set their fees at.

854
01:18:18,000 --> 01:18:22,000
And essentially we're passing those fees on.

855
01:18:22,000 --> 01:18:26,000
So how they determine those costs.

856
01:18:26,000 --> 01:18:31,000
I'm assuming that was a bit of market analysis on their part.

857
01:18:31,000 --> 01:18:38,000
But you're right. I mean, there are a couple in there where there are significant jumps.

858
01:18:38,000 --> 01:18:41,000
Okay. Well, thank you. That's too bad.

859
01:18:41,000 --> 01:18:46,000
But you said we're sort of in the situation. So.

860
01:18:46,000 --> 01:18:54,000
Yeah. I mean, if you recall, when we went out to RFP for this, there was not a lot of other competition.

861
01:18:54,000 --> 01:18:57,000
So that's part of it.

862
01:18:57,000 --> 01:18:59,000
Thank you, Alex.

863
01:18:59,000 --> 01:19:01,000
Any further discussion?

864
01:19:01,000 --> 01:19:07,000
Or again, we're looking for a motion.

865
01:19:07,000 --> 01:19:11,000
I'll make a motion to approve 2026-038.

866
01:19:11,000 --> 01:19:15,000
Thank you, Colleen. Is there a second?

867
01:19:15,000 --> 01:19:16,000
Second.

868
01:19:16,000 --> 01:19:18,000
Thank you, Brad.

869
01:19:18,000 --> 01:19:21,000
Any further discussion?

870
01:19:21,000 --> 01:19:27,000
Seeing none, all those in favor of the motion, please signify by saying aye.

871
01:19:27,000 --> 01:19:28,000
Aye.

872
01:19:28,000 --> 01:19:29,000
Aye.

873
01:19:29,000 --> 01:19:30,000
Opposed?

874
01:19:30,000 --> 01:19:32,000
That is 6-0.

875
01:19:32,000 --> 01:19:47,000
9.3 is a resolution 2026-039 resolution authorizing the village administrator to release a trail easement over lots three through 21.

876
01:19:47,000 --> 01:19:51,000
Homestead addition to Savannah Brooks subdivision.

877
01:19:52,000 --> 01:19:55,000
And I believe the staff presentation is my bill.

878
01:20:08,000 --> 01:20:13,000
So what you see before you is a northern portion of the Homestead addition.

879
01:20:14,000 --> 01:20:26,000
This is located in the south east quadrant of highway 19 and highway 51.

880
01:20:26,000 --> 01:20:33,000
So if you look at the map here, this is highway 51 going north to south highway 19 going east to west here.

881
01:20:33,000 --> 01:20:41,000
The subdivision that we're looking at is just to the south east of that.

882
01:20:41,000 --> 01:20:46,000
This is Williamsburg way coming north itself and highway 19 here.

883
01:20:46,000 --> 01:21:06,000
So we've been requested by the developer to release a 14 foot pedestrian biking easement along the north edge of these lots here.

884
01:21:07,000 --> 01:21:17,000
When this whole subdivision and Savannah Brooks subdivision was planted is my understanding that that easement was put in there.

885
01:21:17,000 --> 01:21:29,000
It has anticipation of this area being commercial at the time and anticipating a trail that would run east west from Sun Prairie to water key.

886
01:21:30,000 --> 01:21:37,000
Since then, the subdivision has gone through a number of changes.

887
01:21:37,000 --> 01:21:45,000
Primarily this section being turned or going from commercial to what is now mostly residential.

888
01:21:45,000 --> 01:21:58,000
And so this easement and that sidewalk or pedestrian path would be right through the backyards of most folks in this subdivision or along this section of street.

889
01:22:00,000 --> 01:22:08,000
As such, there's another there's a laundry list of items why staff supports.

890
01:22:08,000 --> 01:22:15,000
Releasing this easement, some of which include that the right of way is significant here.

891
01:22:15,000 --> 01:22:24,000
And that any future pedestrian path or bike path likely would be a part of a project in the future.

892
01:22:24,000 --> 01:22:38,000
If you look at the boundary lines here, there's also a conflict point where the easement inside this property line would not align with the current right away or property line,

893
01:22:38,000 --> 01:22:45,000
which then transitions into some of the some sensitive areas, environmentally sensitive areas.

894
01:22:46,000 --> 01:22:53,000
And so there's a there's a lot of questions as to how and when a trail would be built.

895
01:22:53,000 --> 01:23:02,000
And so again, as requested by the developer in assisting them, providing them.

896
01:23:03,000 --> 01:23:15,000
Easier path to be able to sell the lots there, assuming that there's all residents, no property owners that would want a sidewalk in their backyard.

897
01:23:15,000 --> 01:23:20,000
Staff is recommending that the village board release the easement.

898
01:23:20,000 --> 01:23:25,000
This proposal did go for review at the planning and zoning commission.

899
01:23:26,000 --> 01:23:32,000
Last month, and that is also their recommendation is to release the easement.

900
01:23:32,000 --> 01:23:37,000
Happy to take any questions. I'm sure I missed a bunch of stuff here, but.

901
01:23:37,000 --> 01:23:40,000
I can take questions.

902
01:23:40,000 --> 01:23:46,000
Thank you, Bill. So again, there's no public appearances. So discussion and possible action.

903
01:23:46,000 --> 01:23:50,000
You'll offer questions if anybody has one.

904
01:23:51,000 --> 01:23:59,000
Bill, I'm never in favor of giving back a space that we can control.

905
01:23:59,000 --> 01:24:03,000
I understand the reasons why they want this.

906
01:24:03,000 --> 01:24:08,000
What I understood is from reading through that is that.

907
01:24:08,000 --> 01:24:16,000
The county, I believe that they wanted to do something or had a future project that they could take that space anyways and do this project for the.

908
01:24:17,000 --> 01:24:25,000
Yeah, so there's a couple of things going on here. So if you look at this North line, that's the edge of the right away.

909
01:24:25,000 --> 01:24:30,000
That easement is on the south side of that property line.

910
01:24:30,000 --> 01:24:35,000
What some of the points also talk about is that there is a setback area.

911
01:24:35,000 --> 01:24:40,000
Right away setback area or DOT, which is 50 feet.

912
01:24:41,000 --> 01:24:49,000
From that right away line. And so there's a, there's also a question of whether or not we can build within that 50 feet setback.

913
01:24:49,000 --> 01:24:51,000
That that pedestrian path.

914
01:24:51,000 --> 01:25:00,000
So whatever planning comes in the future is going to have to require involvement of the DOT has to where potentially they would put that path.

915
01:25:00,000 --> 01:25:03,000
We're not even sure if that's going to be on the south side.

916
01:25:03,000 --> 01:25:08,000
You know, if you look at the north side, the north side of the highway has more room on that side.

917
01:25:09,000 --> 01:25:12,000
So there's just too many questions at this point.

918
01:25:12,000 --> 01:25:21,000
One of the alternates that alternatives that they were the developer was proposing was was.

919
01:25:21,000 --> 01:25:28,000
CS, I mean, or subdividing the loss into.

920
01:25:28,000 --> 01:25:32,000
Outlots, which would dedicate the land immediately to the village.

921
01:25:32,000 --> 01:25:35,000
We didn't like that idea either.

922
01:25:36,000 --> 01:25:41,000
At the end of the day, having the seismic out there and having private private property.

923
01:25:41,000 --> 01:25:47,000
Would suggest that we would have maintenance obligations along that session.

924
01:25:47,000 --> 01:25:50,000
Or who knows how long.

925
01:25:50,000 --> 01:25:57,000
So yeah, I am out of the thinking of you once we get property and we don't want to return it.

926
01:25:57,000 --> 01:26:00,000
But in this case, we thought long, hard about it.

927
01:26:00,000 --> 01:26:01,000
It made sense.

928
01:26:01,000 --> 01:26:04,000
Thanks for that. And last question. Do you have you heard?

929
01:26:04,000 --> 01:26:08,000
Have you heard of any thought of expanding that road by the deal to you at some point?

930
01:26:08,000 --> 01:26:11,000
Or is that not been a discussion?

931
01:26:11,000 --> 01:26:16,000
So, so we actually expanded a portion of it, I believe.

932
01:26:16,000 --> 01:26:18,000
Three years ago now.

933
01:26:18,000 --> 01:26:20,000
There has been no discussion.

934
01:26:20,000 --> 01:26:25,000
Those far with the other expansion of highway 19 Easter West.

935
01:26:25,000 --> 01:26:28,000
I know that they are doing reconstruction from.

936
01:26:29,000 --> 01:26:33,000
River Road to highway 113, I believe.

937
01:26:33,000 --> 01:26:35,000
And that's been in this session.

938
01:26:39,000 --> 01:26:43,000
Yes, I am aware of that project and it's from River Road all the way to.

939
01:26:43,000 --> 01:26:48,000
One of the intersections and one key and there is no expansion.

940
01:26:48,000 --> 01:26:52,000
It's at least between River Road and 113.

941
01:26:52,000 --> 01:26:54,000
Sorry.

942
01:26:54,000 --> 01:26:56,000
Anything else, Brad?

943
01:26:57,000 --> 01:27:00,000
Other discussion.

944
01:27:00,000 --> 01:27:03,000
Motion to approve.

945
01:27:03,000 --> 01:27:06,000
Motion to approve.

946
01:27:06,000 --> 01:27:10,000
Resolution 2026 039 as written.

947
01:27:10,000 --> 01:27:11,000
Yes.

948
01:27:11,000 --> 01:27:13,000
Second.

949
01:27:13,000 --> 01:27:19,000
So motion by Tashidra and I heard Jan as a second first.

950
01:27:19,000 --> 01:27:22,000
Any discussion.

951
01:27:22,000 --> 01:27:24,000
Hearing none.

952
01:27:25,000 --> 01:27:28,000
All those in favor, please signify by saying aye.

953
01:27:28,000 --> 01:27:29,000
Aye.

954
01:27:29,000 --> 01:27:31,000
Any opposed?

955
01:27:31,000 --> 01:27:36,000
Motion passes 6 0.

956
01:27:36,000 --> 01:27:43,000
Motion 9.4 is the resolution 2026 0 or 040.

957
01:27:43,000 --> 01:27:49,000
Resolution authorizing the village administrator to accept the donation of the land.

958
01:27:50,000 --> 01:27:54,000
We'll change again for the staff presentation.

959
01:27:54,000 --> 01:28:00,000
So this is another proposal by a landowner, developer.

960
01:28:00,000 --> 01:28:03,000
More recently here within the village of the forest.

961
01:28:03,000 --> 01:28:08,000
So what we're looking at here is this is North Street Highway 51,

962
01:28:08,000 --> 01:28:10,000
North and South.

963
01:28:10,000 --> 01:28:14,000
This is ball court right here.

964
01:28:14,000 --> 01:28:18,000
And just a couple of years ago, this parcel right here used to be one parcel.

965
01:28:18,000 --> 01:28:24,000
So it was subdivided for the development of first choice dental.

966
01:28:24,000 --> 01:28:29,000
This lot was created in split.

967
01:28:29,000 --> 01:28:33,000
I believe as part of the construction of the roundabouts in ball court,

968
01:28:33,000 --> 01:28:40,000
which left these remnant pieces here.

969
01:28:40,000 --> 01:28:45,000
And here.

970
01:28:45,000 --> 01:28:54,000
So the property owner is proposing to donate those two parcels to the village at this point.

971
01:28:54,000 --> 01:29:02,000
That believing that it makes more sense to be within the right away versus held by private private as private property.

972
01:29:02,000 --> 01:29:04,000
That's the extent of my presentation.

973
01:29:04,000 --> 01:29:08,000
I'll take any questions at this point.

974
01:29:08,000 --> 01:29:12,000
Thank you, Bill. There is no public appearances discussion.

975
01:29:12,000 --> 01:29:16,000
Questions, possible action.

976
01:29:16,000 --> 01:29:18,000
Motion to approve.

977
01:29:18,000 --> 01:29:19,000
Second.

978
01:29:19,000 --> 01:29:23,000
Motion by Brad, seconded by Tashidra.

979
01:29:23,000 --> 01:29:27,000
Any discussion?

980
01:29:27,000 --> 01:29:30,000
I guess Bill, I do have a question.

981
01:29:31,000 --> 01:29:39,000
Has the Jason property owner been approached if they would want that land?

982
01:29:39,000 --> 01:29:42,000
I think Alex might have more information on that.

983
01:29:42,000 --> 01:29:45,000
It's a work in progress. They're a little bit challenging to get ahold of.

984
01:29:45,000 --> 01:29:50,000
But it's certainly something that we're trying to work through.

985
01:29:50,000 --> 01:29:51,000
Okay.

986
01:29:51,000 --> 01:29:59,000
And I would just state my concern with that is one of those parcels looks to be pretty much all pavement that I would.

987
01:29:59,000 --> 01:30:05,000
Without knowing where the lines were, I would assume was their driveway.

988
01:30:05,000 --> 01:30:13,000
And if we accept that as our right away, that's now our responsibility to maintain.

989
01:30:13,000 --> 01:30:21,000
So I just wonder what we want to do about that is that something that we can accept and then.

990
01:30:21,000 --> 01:30:26,000
Say donate to them in the future or do we want to.

991
01:30:26,000 --> 01:30:30,000
Have that discussion before we accept the donation.

992
01:30:30,000 --> 01:30:34,000
If I wouldn't become a part of the right away, it would become village property.

993
01:30:34,000 --> 01:30:42,000
So it would just be a very big ownership.

994
01:30:42,000 --> 01:30:48,000
I guess Alex are what is your thoughts as far as the.

995
01:30:48,000 --> 01:30:54,000
So I'm actively trying to get ahold of that other property owner to gauge their interest.

996
01:30:54,000 --> 01:30:58,000
However, we want to eventually.

997
01:30:58,000 --> 01:31:05,000
Approach disposing of that. I guess is a decision that you all will have to make when we get there, assuming this goes through.

998
01:31:05,000 --> 01:31:09,000
But certainly, I mean, that logically makes sense to.

999
01:31:09,000 --> 01:31:11,000
Talk to them about it.

1000
01:31:11,000 --> 01:31:14,000
Okay. Thank you.

1001
01:31:14,000 --> 01:31:16,000
Any further discussion.

1002
01:31:17,000 --> 01:31:20,000
So just expand on that whole.

1003
01:31:20,000 --> 01:31:22,000
Conversation.

1004
01:31:22,000 --> 01:31:26,000
Alex, you said it would logically make sense to have a discussion with them.

1005
01:31:26,000 --> 01:31:30,000
Would it logically make sense to just put this on hold.

1006
01:31:30,000 --> 01:31:32,000
Or a little bit because.

1007
01:31:32,000 --> 01:31:36,000
I'm thinking to the these property owners that are donating the land.

1008
01:31:36,000 --> 01:31:37,000
Want this.

1009
01:31:37,000 --> 01:31:41,000
Want to donate this because of course it's not of any value to them, but also.

1010
01:31:41,000 --> 01:31:43,000
It would be a tax right off.

1011
01:31:44,000 --> 01:31:51,000
But we're at there's still quite a few months into the into the year.

1012
01:31:51,000 --> 01:31:59,000
So would we maybe just want to put this off and bring it back to the agenda after we speak to the other party.

1013
01:31:59,000 --> 01:32:05,000
The other property owners to find out that for sure that they will take it.

1014
01:32:06,000 --> 01:32:08,000
I just really could.

1015
01:32:08,000 --> 01:32:10,000
You're right. I mean, we are early in the year.

1016
01:32:10,000 --> 01:32:17,000
I know that the donating party would still have a process to go through after this conceivably that.

1017
01:32:17,000 --> 01:32:20,000
Wouldn't be an issue timing wise to the end of the year.

1018
01:32:20,000 --> 01:32:22,000
I also think about.

1019
01:32:22,000 --> 01:32:28,000
If we were to do that at what point is our cut off date if I'm unable to get a hold of that property owner.

1020
01:32:28,000 --> 01:32:32,000
And if I am unable to get a hold of that property owner by that cut off date.

1021
01:32:32,000 --> 01:32:35,000
Do you still want to move forward with this donation or not?

1022
01:32:35,000 --> 01:32:39,000
So those are all things I guess to consider in that choice.

1023
01:32:48,000 --> 01:32:49,000
Anything else?

1024
01:32:49,000 --> 01:32:51,000
Nothing else.

1025
01:32:51,000 --> 01:32:52,000
Nothing else.

1026
01:32:52,000 --> 01:32:54,000
I'm just wondering how the rest of the board is feeling.

1027
01:32:54,000 --> 01:32:57,000
Hi, Jim.

1028
01:32:58,000 --> 01:33:05,000
Yeah, I mean, it sounds like if there's not an immediate rush, can we wait here back to see.

1029
01:33:05,000 --> 01:33:07,000
Before we make a decision.

1030
01:33:11,000 --> 01:33:15,000
I think we'd be looking for the change in the motion.

1031
01:33:15,000 --> 01:33:18,000
If that's the desire of the board.

1032
01:33:18,000 --> 01:33:22,000
Right now the motion is to approve the resolution as written.

1033
01:33:22,000 --> 01:33:24,000
The motion could be made to postpone.

1034
01:33:25,000 --> 01:33:26,000
Okay.

1035
01:33:26,000 --> 01:33:28,000
I guess it's a pending motion for.

1036
01:33:28,000 --> 01:33:31,000
Outside of the motion, I'd probably also be looking for.

1037
01:33:31,000 --> 01:33:37,000
I don't know how to drop that date that you'd want that decision by or contact or no contact by.

1038
01:33:37,000 --> 01:33:39,000
Thank you, Alex.

1039
01:33:39,000 --> 01:33:46,000
So we could make a motion to postpone it and put a time element in there.

1040
01:33:46,000 --> 01:33:52,000
Yeah, you can make a motion to postpone it and put a time element in there.

1041
01:33:53,000 --> 01:33:56,000
I think to honor both.

1042
01:33:56,000 --> 01:34:01,000
I think because I think the donation is great. I would.

1043
01:34:01,000 --> 01:34:10,000
Be open to a friendly if it addresses us waiting for a possible contact.

1044
01:34:10,000 --> 01:34:20,000
As you're right, you can call until the day is done and that's a lot of time and resources and you don't need to bring something back to the board that we've already said.

1045
01:34:20,000 --> 01:34:22,000
If we agree to do it.

1046
01:34:22,000 --> 01:34:29,000
So I would be open to, you know, Alex trying to reach the homeowner or the property owner.

1047
01:34:29,000 --> 01:34:31,000
And I say.

1048
01:34:31,000 --> 01:34:33,000
Two weeks.

1049
01:34:33,000 --> 01:34:40,000
If that's reasonable, but I'm open to a number, but there definitely needs to be a definitive cut off time.

1050
01:34:40,000 --> 01:34:45,000
For reference, I've been trying to get a hold of them for about two weeks.

1051
01:34:45,000 --> 01:34:47,000
So let's, can we try out?

1052
01:34:47,000 --> 01:34:51,000
I would request a month, I guess, if that would be helpful to me.

1053
01:34:51,000 --> 01:34:57,000
And then additionally, if they're not interested in those parcels.

1054
01:34:57,000 --> 01:35:00,000
I was thinking more like two months.

1055
01:35:00,000 --> 01:35:01,000
Two months.

1056
01:35:01,000 --> 01:35:04,000
But what?

1057
01:35:05,000 --> 01:35:19,000
I was thinking more like two months and I just, I think it's important because really the village doesn't want to have to worry about taking care of this property because it's there in the middle of nothing.

1058
01:35:19,000 --> 01:35:23,000
And it's not like we're going to sell this to these new to the other owners.

1059
01:35:23,000 --> 01:35:24,000
Just give it to them.

1060
01:35:24,000 --> 01:35:28,000
I think we'd probably come to that agreement.

1061
01:35:28,000 --> 01:35:32,000
I think that's an open point for discussion to.

1062
01:35:32,000 --> 01:35:33,000
Thank you.

1063
01:35:33,000 --> 01:35:37,000
I wanted to say something then that if you're done, yeah, I'm done.

1064
01:35:37,000 --> 01:35:43,000
I just wanted to give the board a little context. This is an honest corporate owner of the, of that property.

1065
01:35:43,000 --> 01:35:49,000
And we've had situations in the past where we've needed temporary easements to do road work and things like that.

1066
01:35:49,000 --> 01:35:53,000
And they do take a long time to respond to requests like that.

1067
01:35:53,000 --> 01:36:00,000
I think this is probably a small piece of a larger portfolio that they deal with on real estate matters.

1068
01:36:00,000 --> 01:36:04,000
So it probably will not be a priority from their standpoint.

1069
01:36:04,000 --> 01:36:06,000
So it could take a fair amount of time.

1070
01:36:06,000 --> 01:36:08,000
That's all I'm saying.

1071
01:36:08,000 --> 01:36:10,000
Thank you.

1072
01:36:10,000 --> 01:36:11,000
Brad.

1073
01:36:11,000 --> 01:36:12,000
Yes.

1074
01:36:12,000 --> 01:36:13,000
Since there's a motion on the floor.

1075
01:36:13,000 --> 01:36:18,000
I, I'll amend the motion to postpone until July 7th meeting.

1076
01:36:18,000 --> 01:36:21,000
To try to contact the owners.

1077
01:36:21,000 --> 01:36:23,000
I'll second that.

1078
01:36:27,000 --> 01:36:28,000
Seven.

1079
01:36:29,000 --> 01:36:34,000
Sorry, I didn't keep track of who made the motion. Was that Brad and Jan?

1080
01:36:34,000 --> 01:36:37,000
Brad made the motion and to see your second.

1081
01:36:37,000 --> 01:36:41,000
So to see, do you accept that change in the motion?

1082
01:36:41,000 --> 01:36:42,000
Yes.

1083
01:36:42,000 --> 01:36:46,000
Yeah, that's a motion to postpone it's a separate motion.

1084
01:36:46,000 --> 01:36:49,000
So that can be handled by the other two.

1085
01:36:49,000 --> 01:36:51,000
I thought you could.

1086
01:36:51,000 --> 01:36:53,000
I was amending the original motion.

1087
01:36:54,000 --> 01:36:58,000
Then you would need to run the amendment.

1088
01:36:58,000 --> 01:37:00,000
It's a concern for that.

1089
01:37:00,000 --> 01:37:02,000
I accept your friendly.

1090
01:37:02,000 --> 01:37:03,000
Thank you.

1091
01:37:03,000 --> 01:37:06,000
Thank you for the clarification.

1092
01:37:06,000 --> 01:37:09,000
Annie further discussion.

1093
01:37:09,000 --> 01:37:15,000
Hearing none, all those in favor of the motion, please signify by saying aye.

1094
01:37:15,000 --> 01:37:16,000
Aye.

1095
01:37:16,000 --> 01:37:21,000
Any opposed motion passes six zero.

1096
01:37:22,000 --> 01:37:24,000
And we'll wait to hear more in July.

1097
01:37:26,000 --> 01:37:27,000
Thank you.

1098
01:37:30,000 --> 01:37:32,000
Item 9.5.

1099
01:37:32,000 --> 01:37:35,000
Resolution 2026 041.

1100
01:37:35,000 --> 01:37:41,000
A resolution approving a first amendment to development agreement with CH.

1101
01:37:41,000 --> 01:37:43,000
Company or CO.

1102
01:37:43,000 --> 01:37:45,000
Forest LLC.

1103
01:37:45,000 --> 01:37:48,000
Bill Chang is listed as the staff presenter.

1104
01:37:49,000 --> 01:37:57,000
So what I would like to do here is give a general presentation since this project involves.

1105
01:37:57,000 --> 01:38:01,000
9.5, 9.6, 9.7.

1106
01:38:01,000 --> 01:38:06,000
10.1 and 12.1.

1107
01:38:06,000 --> 01:38:08,000
You want me to read them all.

1108
01:38:08,000 --> 01:38:12,000
No, I'm going to give a general presentation about the project itself.

1109
01:38:12,000 --> 01:38:24,000
And as we dive down into each of those items separately, there's more detail about each of those items, which I can present even, you know, okay, give a further presentation.

1110
01:38:24,000 --> 01:38:25,000
Thank you.

1111
01:38:25,000 --> 01:38:32,000
I do want to also acknowledge that Claudia is here from cascade development and I believe.

1112
01:38:32,000 --> 01:38:34,000
Look is online also.

1113
01:38:36,000 --> 01:38:41,000
And they're available to answer any questions if you, you may have any questions.

1114
01:38:41,000 --> 01:38:54,000
Bill, just one second.

1115
01:38:54,000 --> 01:38:57,000
Luke, are you the iPhone?

1116
01:38:57,000 --> 01:39:04,000
If you are, can you raise your hand through the hand raise so we can unmute you.

1117
01:39:04,000 --> 01:39:08,000
Okay, thank you.

1118
01:39:08,000 --> 01:39:20,000
We will give you a close.

1119
01:39:20,000 --> 01:39:34,000
So, first of all, I want to locate us here. So you see on the map here again, we're in the corridor of highway 51 and highway 19 going east west here.

1120
01:39:34,000 --> 01:39:42,000
The green now line here shows tax incrementistic number seven as amended last year.

1121
01:39:42,000 --> 01:39:57,000
The yellow area is the residential area proposed for this development and the red area is the area proposed for the sports complex and the hotel.

1122
01:40:04,000 --> 01:40:20,000
Next here are renderings provided by cascade development. The first set of renderings here are of the residential proposals, three separate apartment buildings, three floors each.

1123
01:40:20,000 --> 01:40:33,000
And then a series of town home style units that would kind of border the apartment buildings along Peterson crossing here.

1124
01:40:33,000 --> 01:40:48,000
The objective is we understand from the developer is that town homes will provide a good and aesthetically pleasing frontage to the residential development.

1125
01:40:48,000 --> 01:40:58,000
The uniqueness of the elevation on this partial is that these three story buildings will be set lower in elevation.

1126
01:40:58,000 --> 01:41:09,000
So the lines of the town home and the apartments here will be, will work together.

1127
01:41:09,000 --> 01:41:16,000
I believe they're a half of the story above each other here.

1128
01:41:16,000 --> 01:41:23,000
And just just other renderings here.

1129
01:41:23,000 --> 01:41:34,000
This is from a street view.

1130
01:41:34,000 --> 01:41:51,000
We want to state that in talking or planning this with the developer, you know, we take a look at a lot of the aesthetics from not only the forest yards, phase one, which is south of this development.

1131
01:41:51,000 --> 01:42:01,000
But there is also, we took a look at what the materials utilize for Uber Corporation and their headquarters.

1132
01:42:01,000 --> 01:42:11,000
And so we're starting to develop a aesthetic theme for this area as we go along here.

1133
01:42:11,000 --> 01:42:16,000
So again, this project that this facility here is on the south side of 19.

1134
01:42:16,000 --> 01:42:20,000
You see Williamsburg way coming in on the right end of the screen here.

1135
01:42:20,000 --> 01:42:25,000
This is Savannah drive coming across here in the ice arena.

1136
01:42:25,000 --> 01:42:30,000
It's just to go left here of the screen.

1137
01:42:31,000 --> 01:42:35,000
The facility, the sports facility is proposed in two phases.

1138
01:42:35,000 --> 01:42:41,000
The first phase would be the indoor field in a common space.

1139
01:42:41,000 --> 01:42:52,000
And then the second phase we'll see in a later picture here would include the courts indoor courts building that you see in the background here.

1140
01:42:52,000 --> 01:42:57,000
This is a proposed 89 room Marriott hotel.

1141
01:42:57,000 --> 01:43:04,000
The Marriott hotel actually will be constructed first as part of this project.

1142
01:43:04,000 --> 01:43:17,000
Currently, the developer is looking at a parking study and a traffic study to complement their eventual submittal of site plan for this facility.

1143
01:43:17,000 --> 01:43:34,000
So just to the south here, you see this parking lot. If you remember a couple of years ago, the village acquired this property here about two acres in anticipation that more more parking will be needed would be needed in this area.

1144
01:43:34,000 --> 01:43:41,000
We currently have a development agreement with the developer to construct this parking lot.

1145
01:43:41,000 --> 01:43:58,000
And so it will be a future municipal parking lot and we've had discussions internally about potentially revenue generating here so that we can continue to maintain that into the future.

1146
01:43:58,000 --> 01:44:02,000
So this here is the second phase, you can see the facility.

1147
01:44:02,000 --> 01:44:10,000
And again, the statics here match legacy 20 at the forest yards, which is the high arena.

1148
01:44:10,000 --> 01:44:19,000
Same architecture, so a static style has young blood and then obviously the around us second restaurant there.

1149
01:44:29,000 --> 01:44:37,000
So I want to pause there in regards to the general description of the project itself.

1150
01:44:37,000 --> 01:44:45,000
Again, cascade is online and here if there's any questions in particular about.

1151
01:44:45,000 --> 01:44:53,000
You know, land use and or the project overall as we dive into each of the agenda items.

1152
01:44:53,000 --> 01:45:03,000
I'll try to break it down in more into detail as to how those individual items apply to the overall plan.

1153
01:45:03,000 --> 01:45:08,000
Thank you, Bill. So general questions, Brad, I saw your hand first.

1154
01:45:08,000 --> 01:45:14,000
I just want to confirm that the hotel is three stories. Is that correct?

1155
01:45:14,000 --> 01:45:19,000
It's actually four stories.

1156
01:45:20,000 --> 01:45:24,000
Thank you, Luke. And could you please state your name and municipality for the record?

1157
01:45:24,000 --> 01:45:27,000
Yep, Luke stop here with cascade development.

1158
01:45:27,000 --> 01:45:32,000
Villager to force.

1159
01:45:32,000 --> 01:45:38,000
Yeah, so the whole the hotel is a Marriott town place suites 89 room.

1160
01:45:38,000 --> 01:45:40,000
We're using their prototype drawings.

1161
01:45:40,000 --> 01:45:47,000
Yeah, I think by the time we had the submittal, we probably at this point, we know the exterior and could give you guys it probably should have given you better look at it.

1162
01:45:47,000 --> 01:45:53,000
But we can do that the next time, but it's a four story four story building.

1163
01:45:53,000 --> 01:46:04,000
With a good look at Mark Ropper's has had a look at the site plan and his comments on the meeting, all the different municipalities codes.

1164
01:46:04,000 --> 01:46:10,000
Is the current cold three stories or is it for?

1165
01:46:11,000 --> 01:46:14,000
I don't think there's a height. Yeah, I don't think there's a height issue there.

1166
01:46:14,000 --> 01:46:17,000
I think there's more general kind of all the difference.

1167
01:46:17,000 --> 01:46:25,000
It nuances inside of Mount Efist and windows and all of that.

1168
01:46:25,000 --> 01:46:29,000
Okay, thank you. And my other question is.

1169
01:46:29,000 --> 01:46:34,000
Just with the residential parking, I saw average of one and a half or one.

1170
01:46:35,000 --> 01:46:45,000
Better apartment. Have we seen in other developments around the village that we've had parking concerns? A lot of families have two vehicles.

1171
01:46:45,000 --> 01:46:49,000
Have we seen that in other places?

1172
01:46:49,000 --> 01:46:58,000
So I think the modification to the parking requirements in this case was related to service parking versus under building parking.

1173
01:46:59,000 --> 01:47:07,000
Yeah, that's correct Alex. Sorry to cut you off, but the reason for the modification is is related to the outdoor garage part of it and the kind of covered.

1174
01:47:07,000 --> 01:47:11,000
We actually have this is the most amount of parking I've had at a development.

1175
01:47:11,000 --> 01:47:16,000
So the one and a half is a kind of over in the top.

1176
01:47:16,000 --> 01:47:21,000
My current project over at the American Center is a think about 1.3 to one.

1177
01:47:22,000 --> 01:47:30,000
And the forest yards phase one is just under where we're at here. So from our 2000 years of development.

1178
01:47:30,000 --> 01:47:43,000
If we can say over the 1.3 1.35 we've never had any issues with the parking and it's a ratio between studios and 1 bedrooms and 2 bedrooms as far as the cars.

1179
01:47:43,000 --> 01:47:51,000
So we feel obviously very good about the parking position here and it's in a better place than other developments we've done.

1180
01:47:51,000 --> 01:48:01,000
Their parking configuration is just different between the surface, the garage and then under building than what we're typically seeing, but they're adequately parked overall for the city.

1181
01:48:01,000 --> 01:48:05,000
Anything else, Brad?

1182
01:48:05,000 --> 01:48:11,000
Any other discussion say generally.

1183
01:48:11,000 --> 01:48:22,000
Seeing none, I guess I would move on to item 9.4.1 with the presentation on that actual item.

1184
01:48:22,000 --> 01:48:25,000
So you okay with that bill?

1185
01:48:25,000 --> 01:48:27,000
I'll just add one additional thing on the hotel.

1186
01:48:27,000 --> 01:48:32,000
So that is up on engaged to forest and they have a site plans to middle that it's under that too.

1187
01:48:32,000 --> 01:48:34,000
I just wanted to check that out.

1188
01:48:34,000 --> 01:48:40,000
Thank you, Alex. And 9.5.1. Oh, sorry.

1189
01:48:40,000 --> 01:48:42,000
Can I say.

1190
01:48:42,000 --> 01:48:44,000
Yep, go ahead.

1191
01:48:44,000 --> 01:48:46,000
I've just been thinking about.

1192
01:48:46,000 --> 01:48:53,000
The lot that the village owns across the street from the sports complex.

1193
01:48:53,000 --> 01:48:59,000
We said that we're going to try to make that revenue generating.

1194
01:48:59,000 --> 01:49:00,000
Correct.

1195
01:49:01,000 --> 01:49:03,000
Okay, I'm thinking that.

1196
01:49:03,000 --> 01:49:06,000
Luke's not going to charge for parking.

1197
01:49:06,000 --> 01:49:08,000
At the facility itself.

1198
01:49:08,000 --> 01:49:10,000
Am I wrong on that?

1199
01:49:10,000 --> 01:49:14,000
No, that that's correct is our goal was not that parking.

1200
01:49:14,000 --> 01:49:20,000
Obviously just to kind of be different than Madison and have an easier access for the overall district.

1201
01:49:20,000 --> 01:49:26,000
What we had talked about, it was kind of a little bit of a moving discussion because we don't really have an answer.

1202
01:49:27,000 --> 01:49:33,000
When I say we myself and village staff is coming up with ways of how could we figure out how to use it?

1203
01:49:33,000 --> 01:49:38,000
Maybe it's a VIP situation for certain events and I think the goal was with.

1204
01:49:38,000 --> 01:49:41,000
You have the funding to create the parking book.

1205
01:49:41,000 --> 01:49:45,000
What happens 10 15 20 years later from a maintenance standpoint.

1206
01:49:45,000 --> 01:49:52,000
So I think what we we didn't have an answer, but we said, you know, let's continue to discuss this so we can figure out.

1207
01:49:53,000 --> 01:49:56,000
Some way that we can create some sort of.

1208
01:49:56,000 --> 01:49:59,000
Reserve fun to make sure that we don't have an issue.

1209
01:49:59,000 --> 01:50:02,000
15 years down the road on a main side of things.

1210
01:50:02,000 --> 01:50:04,000
Okay.

1211
01:50:04,000 --> 01:50:05,000
It did.

1212
01:50:05,000 --> 01:50:07,000
I guess it's fuzzy to you guys.

1213
01:50:07,000 --> 01:50:09,000
It seems fuzzy to me too.

1214
01:50:09,000 --> 01:50:11,000
So I'm kind of wondering.

1215
01:50:11,000 --> 01:50:17,000
Yeah, I think it was like it's certainly, I don't think it's normal that you need.

1216
01:50:17,000 --> 01:50:20,000
I mean, you wouldn't normally charge in your other spaces.

1217
01:50:20,000 --> 01:50:26,000
I think it was just kind of an add. I'm like, Oh, if we can, if we can get something to make it even better, how do we, how do we go about doing it?

1218
01:50:26,000 --> 01:50:31,000
And I, and I think when I was approached by village staff is, Hey, I'm open to listening up.

1219
01:50:31,000 --> 01:50:35,000
Obviously, you know, we're managing all the assets in the development.

1220
01:50:35,000 --> 01:50:38,000
So we're on board with, you know, with that.

1221
01:50:38,000 --> 01:50:44,000
So we were just kind of actively listening, talking about, you know, how we could work together to.

1222
01:50:44,000 --> 01:50:46,000
Come up with something.

1223
01:50:47,000 --> 01:50:54,000
Okay, you're right. I guess when I'm thinking about if we're going to be charging for parking in the village lot.

1224
01:50:54,000 --> 01:50:56,000
How do you sell that to the public?

1225
01:50:56,000 --> 01:50:57,000
Yeah.

1226
01:50:57,000 --> 01:50:59,000
And you're not going to have half the people.

1227
01:50:59,000 --> 01:51:05,000
Yeah, for the record, I was the first one to say that was like, Hey, what do you want me to do? Like the better park is to both are free.

1228
01:51:05,000 --> 01:51:08,000
And so that's where we kind of thought of maybe there's certain special events.

1229
01:51:08,000 --> 01:51:14,000
There's going to be a number of special events that we'll have as per the entertainment district, whether it's in the sports facility.

1230
01:51:15,000 --> 01:51:17,000
Or if it's in the hockey rink or the outdoor venue.

1231
01:51:17,000 --> 01:51:21,000
So I think that's where we kind of said, Hey, we don't have the answer.

1232
01:51:21,000 --> 01:51:23,000
But, you know, we're all the same team.

1233
01:51:23,000 --> 01:51:27,000
Let's, you know, as we have an opportunity to kind of continue this discussion as these things come to life.

1234
01:51:27,000 --> 01:51:35,000
Let's maybe find some opportunities to create some, you know, something that we can put into it.

1235
01:51:35,000 --> 01:51:39,000
Obviously, as cascade as the developer, we wanted to get repaired to it.

1236
01:51:39,000 --> 01:51:45,000
Ultimately, we would be involved. So is that a must get involved later when it's a problem? Maybe we're proactive about it.

1237
01:51:45,000 --> 01:51:49,000
And I think that was kind of how we ran this discussion.

1238
01:51:49,000 --> 01:51:56,000
Okay. Thank you, Luke. I guess we'll just look forward to hearing more once you guys hammer this out a little bit further.

1239
01:51:56,000 --> 01:51:59,000
Thank you, Jan. I think Bill wanted to add to that.

1240
01:51:59,000 --> 01:52:04,000
Yeah. Yeah. And so, I mean, I think Luke hit it right on the head.

1241
01:52:04,000 --> 01:52:13,000
Right now, we're anticipating regular everyday use, which we don't believe that you're going to fill that municipal parking lot.

1242
01:52:13,000 --> 01:52:21,000
But when it's the high demands, especially events, I mean, that's the opportunity for the village to be able to capitalize on some of that.

1243
01:52:21,000 --> 01:52:26,000
Now, I'm not saying that it's going to be a, you know, a $25 fee.

1244
01:52:26,000 --> 01:52:34,000
You know, even, you know, $5 per vehicle. It's a 200 vehicle lot over a certain amount of time.

1245
01:52:34,000 --> 01:52:38,000
Say, you know, asphalt's usually good for 10, 15 years.

1246
01:52:38,000 --> 01:52:46,000
That means something for the eventual replacement. So that, and we're, we're obviously just thinking about it.

1247
01:52:46,000 --> 01:52:49,000
There's a lot of factors that will play into this.

1248
01:52:49,000 --> 01:52:55,000
You know, the question is if you start charging for parking, do those.

1249
01:52:55,000 --> 01:52:58,000
No participants find parking elsewhere.

1250
01:52:58,000 --> 01:53:11,000
You know, so there's questions about what is the right price, you know, and so more questions that's going to require more answers to come here.

1251
01:53:11,000 --> 01:53:13,000
Thank you, Bill.

1252
01:53:13,000 --> 01:53:17,000
Any other questions to share.

1253
01:53:17,000 --> 01:53:21,000
I think it's great to think about this and have these discussions on the front end.

1254
01:53:21,000 --> 01:53:25,000
Just going to an enormous amount of sporting events.

1255
01:53:25,000 --> 01:53:39,000
Just to really address your question. Like, there's a plethora of things that you could do with this in terms of by the building for the athletes and then spectators are out and people are usually more agreeable to that and paying.

1256
01:53:40,000 --> 01:53:51,000
So I think, you know, it would be prudent to just really try to have some ideas and some perspectives on the front end so that we're not trying to figure it out after the fact because Jane, you're right.

1257
01:53:51,000 --> 01:53:57,000
People are not going to want to pay and then are they going to start parking in residential areas and causing issues there.

1258
01:53:57,000 --> 01:53:59,000
Then it's the oversight of how do we manage.

1259
01:53:59,000 --> 01:54:02,000
How do we know what car belongs to what is there going to be.

1260
01:54:02,000 --> 01:54:06,000
So there's a lot of moving factors with this that I hope you keep in mind.

1261
01:54:10,000 --> 01:54:14,000
Thank you. Any continued discussion.

1262
01:54:14,000 --> 01:54:21,000
Yes, one idea I throw out there is if we say do have people pay say even but $5 or $10.

1263
01:54:21,000 --> 01:54:28,000
Maybe we offer a shuttle service. So it brings them right to the front door or something that that might be a benefit.

1264
01:54:28,000 --> 01:54:34,000
Yeah, that was one kind of thing that we, again, outside the box thinking and I've got a gem vehicle.

1265
01:54:34,000 --> 01:54:38,000
It's one of those electric kind of golf cart looking things, but it's an upgraded version.

1266
01:54:38,000 --> 01:54:43,000
That's a six seat. I got it for the apartments because it's a large site, the first phase.

1267
01:54:43,000 --> 01:54:53,000
And when we brought the USHL team in, we were going to start kind of toying around with the zero way that we could create like a VIP type shuttle surface, you know, picking up in your car.

1268
01:54:53,000 --> 01:54:55,000
It's cold out in January, February.

1269
01:54:55,000 --> 01:54:59,000
So those are all things that we just kind of say, Hey, let's wrap our hands around this.

1270
01:54:59,000 --> 01:55:04,000
And I think it's a little bit of like, I credit the village for bringing it up when they brought it to me.

1271
01:55:04,000 --> 01:55:06,000
It was like, ah, that's not my word.

1272
01:55:06,000 --> 01:55:10,000
Is that anything I've ever thought of? But okay, let's see if we can figure it out together. So I agree.

1273
01:55:10,000 --> 01:55:15,000
I, I like that we're having the conversation now instead of down the road.

1274
01:55:15,000 --> 01:55:17,000
Thank you, Luke.

1275
01:55:17,000 --> 01:55:27,000
So again, the item, what I misspoke, the 9.5.1, the staff presentation, the actual resolution.

1276
01:55:27,000 --> 01:55:29,000
Is there anything else you want to add to?

1277
01:55:29,000 --> 01:55:40,000
Yeah, so I'll talk a little bit in detail about what the resolution and this amendment to the development agreement with CAH here, which is, which is Hooper.

1278
01:55:40,000 --> 01:55:50,000
So we're talking about these lots and highlighted in yellow here currently owned by Hooper Corporation or that CAH company LLC.

1279
01:55:51,000 --> 01:56:01,000
They are, they do have a purchase agreement with cascade to solve the properties currently as it is now.

1280
01:56:01,000 --> 01:56:08,000
There is a development agreement between the village and the forest and CAH.

1281
01:56:08,000 --> 01:56:16,000
Or all the areas, all the parcels that is owned by CAH or had been owned by CAH.

1282
01:56:17,000 --> 01:56:25,000
To provide incentive payments from these parcels at a rate of 75% of the agreement created.

1283
01:56:25,000 --> 01:56:36,000
So that the opportunity to utilize available tax increment from these parcels is locked up by the company.

1284
01:56:36,000 --> 01:57:00,000
As part of the deal here, my understanding that cascade and CAH has negotiated the release of that hold to allow for the increment from these parcels to be, which will be created by cascade to be utilized as tax incentive for the cascade project.

1285
01:57:01,000 --> 01:57:03,000
So that's what this amendment does.

1286
01:57:03,000 --> 01:57:20,000
It realigns the opportunity to shift the available tax increment to be created from these parcels released by CAH and then later on in the development agreement with cascade assigned to cascade.

1287
01:57:24,000 --> 01:57:25,000
Thank you.

1288
01:57:25,000 --> 01:57:29,000
Any discussions or a motion?

1289
01:57:30,000 --> 01:57:36,000
Currently on the screen is resolution 2026 041.

1290
01:57:46,000 --> 01:57:51,000
Motion to approve resolution 2026 041.

1291
01:57:51,000 --> 01:57:56,000
Thank you, Brad. Motion by Brad is there a second second.

1292
01:57:57,000 --> 01:57:59,000
Seconded by Colleen.

1293
01:57:59,000 --> 01:58:01,000
Any continued discussion?

1294
01:58:03,000 --> 01:58:04,000
Seeing none.

1295
01:58:04,000 --> 01:58:08,000
All those in favor of the motion, please signify by saying aye.

1296
01:58:08,000 --> 01:58:11,000
Any opposed?

1297
01:58:11,000 --> 01:58:14,000
Motion passes 60.

1298
01:58:14,000 --> 01:58:21,000
Item 9.6 ordinance 2026 004.

1299
01:58:22,000 --> 01:58:40,000
And ordinance to rezone approximately 11.59 acres currently addressed at 6343 through 6367 Peterson crossing to the R&B residential mixed business district.

1300
01:58:41,000 --> 01:58:42,000
So,

1301
01:58:42,000 --> 01:58:50,000
Bill gave a great overview of the project in general.

1302
01:58:50,000 --> 01:58:53,000
Mark's memo kind of lays out the specifics of the rezoning request.

1303
01:58:53,000 --> 01:59:00,000
This would be for the multifamily portion of the development that we kind of just went over highlighted in yellow on your screen there.

1304
01:59:00,000 --> 01:59:04,000
That's roughly 11 acres at the March 24 planning and zoning meeting.

1305
01:59:05,000 --> 01:59:11,000
The development came through for a conditional use permit as well as the rezoning request as before you.

1306
01:59:11,000 --> 01:59:19,000
A public hearing was also held for the CUP and the commission approved that request and recommended approval of the rezoning to you all.

1307
01:59:19,000 --> 01:59:23,000
The conditional use permit as we kind of just touched on in the parking discussion.

1308
01:59:24,000 --> 01:59:33,000
Enables two things within the R&B. So it would allow for a modification of the in building or the under building parking requirements.

1309
01:59:33,000 --> 01:59:38,000
You also know it in Mark's memo that there's a specification for attached garages.

1310
01:59:38,000 --> 01:59:44,000
This was the distinction. The garages in this case are detached. So that was part of the modification there.

1311
01:59:45,000 --> 01:59:47,000
Generally speaking.

1312
01:59:47,000 --> 01:59:55,000
The R&B district fits the intent of the 19 slash highway 51.

1313
01:59:55,000 --> 02:00:00,000
Overall area plan from the 2023 comprehensive plan which envision this sort of as a.

1314
02:00:00,000 --> 02:00:05,000
Dynamic mixed use district so mixed residential and businesses.

1315
02:00:05,000 --> 02:00:08,000
I believe that's.

1316
02:00:09,000 --> 02:00:11,000
The gist of it.

1317
02:00:11,000 --> 02:00:19,000
If there's any questions from marks memo or related to the rezoning itself happy to answer those otherwise the developers here as well.

1318
02:00:19,000 --> 02:00:21,000
Thank you, Alex.

1319
02:00:21,000 --> 02:00:30,000
Any questions or there is the resolution in front of us.

1320
02:00:30,000 --> 02:00:33,000
Motion to approve.

1321
02:00:33,000 --> 02:00:36,000
Is that supposed to be ordinance or resolution.

1322
02:00:36,000 --> 02:00:39,000
No ordinance ordinance 2026 0 0 4.

1323
02:00:39,000 --> 02:00:43,000
Motion by Brad and I think I heard.

1324
02:00:43,000 --> 02:00:44,000
Second.

1325
02:00:44,000 --> 02:00:47,000
Any further discussion.

1326
02:00:47,000 --> 02:00:51,000
All those in favor please signify by saying aye.

1327
02:00:51,000 --> 02:00:52,000
Aye.

1328
02:00:52,000 --> 02:00:54,000
Any opposed.

1329
02:00:54,000 --> 02:00:57,000
Motion passes.

1330
02:00:57,000 --> 02:00:59,000
Six zero.

1331
02:00:59,000 --> 02:01:01,000
Resolution 9.7.

1332
02:01:01,000 --> 02:01:04,000
Resolution 2026.

1333
02:01:05,000 --> 02:01:10,000
Zero four to a resolution authorizing the village administrator and clerk.

1334
02:01:10,000 --> 02:01:16,000
To execute a facility use agreement with cascade development LLC.

1335
02:01:16,000 --> 02:01:20,000
Staff presentation I believe is bill again.

1336
02:01:24,000 --> 02:01:28,000
All right, so we're starting to transition over here from the resident.

1337
02:01:29,000 --> 02:01:31,000
So construction over to the.

1338
02:01:31,000 --> 02:01:34,000
The facility use of the sports complex.

1339
02:01:34,000 --> 02:01:40,000
As you know, the village has specific impact fees, particularly park.

1340
02:01:40,000 --> 02:01:43,000
Land dedication fees and park.

1341
02:01:43,000 --> 02:01:47,000
Facility fees that are associated or charged.

1342
02:01:47,000 --> 02:01:52,000
For every new residential unit constructed in the forest.

1343
02:01:53,000 --> 02:01:58,000
So as such, we calculated the fees associated with case case.

1344
02:01:58,000 --> 02:02:01,000
Residential development.

1345
02:02:01,000 --> 02:02:05,000
And similar to a facility use agreement that we.

1346
02:02:05,000 --> 02:02:09,000
Currently hit with cascade for the ice arena.

1347
02:02:09,000 --> 02:02:14,000
Are proposing a facility use agreement for.

1348
02:02:14,000 --> 02:02:19,000
Particularly the indoor courts of the sports facility.

1349
02:02:19,000 --> 02:02:22,000
Also expandable to the indoor fields.

1350
02:02:22,000 --> 02:02:25,000
If wherever we should get.

1351
02:02:25,000 --> 02:02:28,000
Or need the ability to access those fields.

1352
02:02:28,000 --> 02:02:32,000
Essentially, the facility use agreement.

1353
02:02:32,000 --> 02:02:38,000
Sets up priority for the village to occupy those courts.

1354
02:02:38,000 --> 02:02:42,000
At a summer rate as well was.

1355
02:02:42,000 --> 02:02:44,000
In the previous agreement at.

1356
02:02:44,000 --> 02:02:46,000
The village.

1357
02:02:47,000 --> 02:02:51,000
Then allocated the amounts to be received.

1358
02:02:51,000 --> 02:02:54,000
From those parking fees.

1359
02:02:54,000 --> 02:02:56,000
Divided by the.

1360
02:02:56,000 --> 02:03:01,000
Projected cost to lease a facility of this nature.

1361
02:03:01,000 --> 02:03:07,000
And, you know, this shakes out to about a 12 to 15 year.

1362
02:03:07,000 --> 02:03:10,000
Least or facility use.

1363
02:03:10,000 --> 02:03:14,000
Of what's going to be developed here.

1364
02:03:15,000 --> 02:03:18,000
It does the facility use agreement does set a minimum.

1365
02:03:18,000 --> 02:03:22,000
That we will utilize 200 up to two.

1366
02:03:22,000 --> 02:03:27,000
And minimum 200 hours of the facility each year.

1367
02:03:27,000 --> 02:03:30,000
But it doesn't set a maximum.

1368
02:03:30,000 --> 02:03:34,000
Essentially, when we run out of that credit amount.

1369
02:03:34,000 --> 02:03:38,000
Would be when that facility use agreement would terminate.

1370
02:03:38,000 --> 02:03:43,000
Happy to answer any questions you have on the facility use agreement.

1371
02:03:43,000 --> 02:03:47,000
A recent year to talk about the villages.

1372
02:03:47,000 --> 02:03:50,000
Recreation program needs, particularly.

1373
02:03:50,000 --> 02:03:54,000
As they relate to indoor courts, primarily basketball and.

1374
02:03:54,000 --> 02:03:55,000
Valuable.

1375
02:03:55,000 --> 02:04:00,000
We'll take questions at this time.

1376
02:04:00,000 --> 02:04:02,000
Thank you, Bill.

1377
02:04:02,000 --> 02:04:05,000
Again, like most of these items, there was no public appearances.

1378
02:04:05,000 --> 02:04:07,000
So discussion.

1379
02:04:07,000 --> 02:04:12,000
And possible action in questions for Bill and Reese's.

1380
02:04:12,000 --> 02:04:14,000
Go ahead, Brad.

1381
02:04:14,000 --> 02:04:16,000
I'm wondering if you could just talk about.

1382
02:04:16,000 --> 02:04:20,000
I think you said the school district is not charging for us to utilize.

1383
02:04:20,000 --> 02:04:21,000
The facilities.

1384
02:04:21,000 --> 02:04:22,000
What is their.

1385
02:04:22,000 --> 02:04:24,000
Rate that they charge hourly.

1386
02:04:24,000 --> 02:04:27,000
So I just had a beating with.

1387
02:04:27,000 --> 02:04:29,000
Two weeks ago.

1388
02:04:29,000 --> 02:04:32,000
And they are going to be looking to implement a fee.

1389
02:04:32,000 --> 02:04:36,000
They have not we have not finalized what that fee is going to be at this point.

1390
02:04:36,000 --> 02:04:41,000
We're looking to see if we can get into a facility use agreement with the school district as well and see if maybe we can set up.

1391
02:04:41,000 --> 02:04:45,000
A set amount per year that we would pay.

1392
02:04:45,000 --> 02:04:49,000
But all of those are still points of discussion at this point.

1393
02:04:49,000 --> 02:04:50,000
I think.

1394
02:04:50,000 --> 02:04:52,000
I'm trying to remember right.

1395
02:04:52,000 --> 02:04:55,000
There were different rights based on which gym or space you were using.

1396
02:04:55,000 --> 02:04:57,000
Based off of the tiered level.

1397
02:04:57,000 --> 02:04:59,000
And we would be a tier two.

1398
02:04:59,000 --> 02:05:02,000
Which would include also like.

1399
02:05:02,000 --> 02:05:05,000
The divorce area, youth basketball and.

1400
02:05:05,000 --> 02:05:10,000
Any of those groups would also be considered in that same priority level as us.

1401
02:05:10,000 --> 02:05:13,000
So it certainly is as as Bill mentioned, like.

1402
02:05:13,000 --> 02:05:14,000
This is a.

1403
02:05:14,000 --> 02:05:16,000
An issue that we see.

1404
02:05:16,000 --> 02:05:18,000
Is a growing issue for us.

1405
02:05:18,000 --> 02:05:24,000
We're already struggling with the amount of space that we have for programming or turning away a lot of kids just because.

1406
02:05:24,000 --> 02:05:27,000
We ultimately just don't have room.

1407
02:05:27,000 --> 02:05:31,000
We're maximizing teams as much as we can in space as much as we can.

1408
02:05:31,000 --> 02:05:37,000
But this is going to be a long term issue that we really need to try to find a solution.

1409
02:05:37,000 --> 02:05:44,000
So whether it's us looking to make, you know, agreements like this or us looking to start planning for a community center.

1410
02:05:44,000 --> 02:05:47,000
That we have space for ourselves, I think.

1411
02:05:47,000 --> 02:05:51,000
That is something that really needs to be considered in our long term planning.

1412
02:05:51,000 --> 02:05:54,000
Just just quickly.

1413
02:05:54,000 --> 02:05:56,000
I'll add someone.

1414
02:05:56,000 --> 02:05:57,000
So.

1415
02:05:57,000 --> 02:06:01,000
The use of the revenue resources that equal.

1416
02:06:02,000 --> 02:06:05,000
And that if we are to.

1417
02:06:05,000 --> 02:06:08,000
Lease from the school district.

1418
02:06:08,000 --> 02:06:12,000
We cannot utilize park impact fees or park land education fees.

1419
02:06:12,000 --> 02:06:14,000
In lieu of.

1420
02:06:14,000 --> 02:06:17,000
In this situation.

1421
02:06:17,000 --> 02:06:20,000
We're doing is because of the development.

1422
02:06:20,000 --> 02:06:26,000
So we're utilizing that as credit against the time reserved in this facility.

1423
02:06:27,000 --> 02:06:30,000
In a lease agreement with the school district, likely.

1424
02:06:30,000 --> 02:06:34,000
The cost of that would need to be paid by.

1425
02:06:34,000 --> 02:06:40,000
Either tax dollars or program generator revenue.

1426
02:06:40,000 --> 02:06:44,000
Second, do anything else.

1427
02:06:44,000 --> 02:06:50,000
It's a lot of notes tonight. I love it.

1428
02:06:51,000 --> 02:06:57,000
I first of all, I really want to commend you guys for thinking outside the box as to how we can get more space.

1429
02:06:57,000 --> 02:07:02,000
So that our community and our communities children can have the space that they need.

1430
02:07:02,000 --> 02:07:06,000
It is hard getting space in the school district because they have their own programming.

1431
02:07:06,000 --> 02:07:09,000
That they have going on and to be able to have.

1432
02:07:09,000 --> 02:07:12,000
I like first priority for the village.

1433
02:07:12,000 --> 02:07:18,000
That goes a long way. And so I really appreciate you thinking outside the box and that way of how we can utilize.

1434
02:07:19,000 --> 02:07:26,000
The fees that we would normally get to offset leasing space because it's only going to get more pricey.

1435
02:07:26,000 --> 02:07:31,000
As more and more space becomes harder to get access to. So I like, I like that.

1436
02:07:31,000 --> 02:07:39,000
And so Bill, the second question you clarified it, the impact fees are in lieu of to help offset the leasing costs.

1437
02:07:39,000 --> 02:07:41,000
Did I understand that right?

1438
02:07:41,000 --> 02:07:44,000
There's something like that.

1439
02:07:44,000 --> 02:07:54,000
So what we're doing here is the total amount that cascade would hold a village for park land dedication and park impact.

1440
02:07:54,000 --> 02:08:01,000
We're using that amount as credit towards our use of their private facilities.

1441
02:08:01,000 --> 02:08:11,000
And so the clock starts ticking on that once we start utilizing or spending those credit dollars.

1442
02:08:11,000 --> 02:08:18,000
And then once that runs out, what happens then, right? Because I think you said 12 to 15 years.

1443
02:08:18,000 --> 02:08:26,000
But if our programming increases as we hope it does and we're utilizing the space more every single year.

1444
02:08:26,000 --> 02:08:31,000
What happens? Do we get more credit or do we actually just start paying out of pocket at that point?

1445
02:08:31,000 --> 02:08:35,000
Because we don't want to take away what we've been giving people, right?

1446
02:08:35,000 --> 02:08:41,000
Yeah, so a couple, I mean, so a couple things to think about here.

1447
02:08:41,000 --> 02:08:48,000
Obviously, we want to enter into negotiation many years before the end of that contract.

1448
02:08:48,000 --> 02:08:56,000
So annually, what's how the facility agreement is set up is that there's a tracking of that.

1449
02:08:56,000 --> 02:09:03,000
There's an annual meeting between our staff and their staff on priority and scheduling, etc.

1450
02:09:03,000 --> 02:09:11,000
And so we'll have an accounting of what is remaining. And so it would be my hope.

1451
02:09:11,000 --> 02:09:18,000
And if I'm still here in 12 years that we're negotiating that, you know, two years ahead of time.

1452
02:09:18,000 --> 02:09:28,000
If not, you know, the other options would be to look at other facilities or, you know, at that point does the programming.

1453
02:09:28,000 --> 02:09:39,000
Demand a facility of its own by the village. And so, you know, facility, a community center facility is extremely expensive,

1454
02:09:39,000 --> 02:09:44,000
including, you know, potentially where that goes and the land that needs to be acquired.

1455
02:09:44,000 --> 02:09:48,000
And there's a whole discussion that needs to happen before that decision gets decided.

1456
02:09:48,000 --> 02:09:53,000
But that clearly is an option that needs to be explored at the time.

1457
02:09:53,000 --> 02:09:56,000
And you would weigh all your options together.

1458
02:09:56,000 --> 02:10:04,000
Now, what I will also say is that in, you know, 10 to 12 years time.

1459
02:10:04,000 --> 02:10:14,000
We have a number of tax increment districts that are intended to end where we'll have run their, their statutory lifetime before that,

1460
02:10:14,000 --> 02:10:23,000
which allows for a bit of financial flexibility, planning flexibility for the village to consider.

1461
02:10:23,000 --> 02:10:31,000
And, you know, community center is not the only public facility that that the village needs to consider in the next couple of years here.

1462
02:10:31,000 --> 02:10:39,000
You know, already about the fire station, you know, about the pre planning for the public services facility.

1463
02:10:39,000 --> 02:10:49,000
There's been talks about what does a what is the future of the library and what do we go from here.

1464
02:10:49,000 --> 02:11:00,000
And I'm sure in, you know, between now and 12 years from now, there's going to be other facilities that are going to be requested of the village.

1465
02:11:00,000 --> 02:11:03,000
Anything else?

1466
02:11:03,000 --> 02:11:08,000
Jim, Luke has his hand raised to.

1467
02:11:08,000 --> 02:11:10,000
Just a second loop.

1468
02:11:10,000 --> 02:11:12,000
I think Brad, you had a question yet.

1469
02:11:12,000 --> 02:11:13,000
Yes.

1470
02:11:13,000 --> 02:11:14,000
One more thing.

1471
02:11:14,000 --> 02:11:26,000
It proved what is a timeline for these fields. I saw was phase two, is that still within the January 2028.

1472
02:11:26,000 --> 02:11:31,000
Yeah, so there is a timeline or deadline in the facility use agreement.

1473
02:11:31,000 --> 02:11:40,000
I believe we have that the facility should be completed now later than December 31, 2029.

1474
02:11:40,000 --> 02:11:47,000
And so that provides a little bit of flexibility to cascade, but it doesn't leave that out there forever.

1475
02:11:47,000 --> 02:12:07,000
And as you know, as the agreement states, if it doesn't, if this agreement falls apart or it doesn't get built or, you know, the terms are met, then the village can claim the remaining amount of what that that total fee amount is.

1476
02:12:08,000 --> 02:12:16,000
Which may be a benefit to the village because once fees are collected, we only have seven years to spend it.

1477
02:12:16,000 --> 02:12:25,000
We don't spend it within that time frame and we have to return that to the developer.

1478
02:12:25,000 --> 02:12:27,000
Thank you, Brad.

1479
02:12:27,000 --> 02:12:31,000
Luke, did you want to add to one of the responses?

1480
02:12:31,000 --> 02:12:34,000
Yeah, I think I just wanted to give a little color background to both of them.

1481
02:12:34,000 --> 02:12:37,000
I'll try to remember all of them because it was a little bit ago.

1482
02:12:37,000 --> 02:12:42,000
But I heard it best when we talked about it being outside the box.

1483
02:12:42,000 --> 02:12:48,000
It's, you know, we look at these issues individually, like a facilities use agreement as an individual piece.

1484
02:12:48,000 --> 02:12:52,000
We look at the sports as an individual piece, the apartments as individual.

1485
02:12:52,000 --> 02:13:00,000
And how we arrived here was probably three years ago, I guess, as the timing of when we were trying to figure out the rank piece.

1486
02:13:00,000 --> 02:13:04,000
And when me and Bill and Alex sat down and said, how do we do this?

1487
02:13:04,000 --> 02:13:09,000
And I think, holistically, these structures never get built.

1488
02:13:09,000 --> 02:13:13,000
Someone's been trying to do this soccer lacrosse stadium.

1489
02:13:13,000 --> 02:13:16,000
Probably for 20 years and it just can't get done. The math doesn't work.

1490
02:13:16,000 --> 02:13:21,000
And so we sat there and said, all right, like, what are the different levers we can pull and how can we wait on the margins?

1491
02:13:21,000 --> 02:13:24,000
And we're all the different pieces we can pull together to kind of make this work.

1492
02:13:24,000 --> 02:13:33,000
And with this, the facilities piece was one that was a part of, hey, if we don't build these apartments, we'd never have to pay these fee.

1493
02:13:33,000 --> 02:13:39,000
If we build them, we'd pay them. But is there a way we can kind of shift that over to some parking recs.

1494
02:13:39,000 --> 02:13:43,000
So that's kind of just, I think it's important to understand how we arrived at it.

1495
02:13:43,000 --> 02:13:47,000
Same deal. If, if we don't do the apartments and the fees aren't generated.

1496
02:13:48,000 --> 02:13:50,000
And so it's kind of, but if, but.

1497
02:13:50,000 --> 02:13:59,000
So we looked at them kind of all tied together and then where can we kind of support the different create different funding sources, because that's the goal of the sense.

1498
02:13:59,000 --> 02:14:02,000
That's why we're talking about the facility. You're going back three years.

1499
02:14:02,000 --> 02:14:06,000
And when phase two came up and said, all right, hey, can we look at that again?

1500
02:14:06,000 --> 02:14:10,000
And we use basically exact same template language as we did with the rink.

1501
02:14:11,000 --> 02:14:18,000
And the difference here was, and this will answer the, the second question that Brad had is the timing of it.

1502
02:14:18,000 --> 02:14:22,000
When I talked to Bill, I said, Hey, you know, there's going to be this indoor soccer.

1503
02:14:22,000 --> 02:14:25,000
What Crossfield that no one else has it with this would be great.

1504
02:14:25,000 --> 02:14:29,000
Bill's feedback was, Hey, we don't feel like we need field space. We need court space.

1505
02:14:29,000 --> 02:14:34,000
And so I obviously listened to him. It wasn't the field was part of phase one.

1506
02:14:34,000 --> 02:14:38,000
The hard courts that we're calling, I guess the field house were part of phase two.

1507
02:14:39,000 --> 02:14:46,000
But this agreement covers any use of the facility, whether it's fields or courts or different pieces.

1508
02:14:46,000 --> 02:14:50,000
But the feedback from Reese and Bill was, Hey, we really need the court piece.

1509
02:14:50,000 --> 02:14:53,000
And here's it. Here's where we can solve a need. So I said, okay, great.

1510
02:14:53,000 --> 02:14:57,000
We'll make sure that we incorporate this hard court piece in.

1511
02:14:57,000 --> 02:15:01,000
And that's why we had the timing of it say that the field goes right away.

1512
02:15:02,000 --> 02:15:06,000
We're hoping that the second phase, much like the second, I guess,

1513
02:15:06,000 --> 02:15:09,000
second iteration of the arena went way quicker than I thought it would.

1514
02:15:09,000 --> 02:15:15,000
There's a lot of things that are acting in our favor to get that second phase going even earlier.

1515
02:15:15,000 --> 02:15:18,000
But the idea was you guys have a court need.

1516
02:15:18,000 --> 02:15:22,000
Let's make sure we commit to helping solve that.

1517
02:15:22,000 --> 02:15:25,000
So that's where kind of some of the dates and why it's in the phase two piece.

1518
02:15:26,000 --> 02:15:30,000
But the agreement would cover full access of the whole facility,

1519
02:15:30,000 --> 02:15:33,000
whether it's a flight football league or something like that,

1520
02:15:33,000 --> 02:15:36,000
the one to use the turf for soccer. But also, I think, like I said,

1521
02:15:36,000 --> 02:15:39,000
the court was a, was a current need that we saw.

1522
02:15:39,000 --> 02:15:45,000
I lost my track. There was one other thing that I wanted to add as part of that.

1523
02:15:45,000 --> 02:15:48,000
I'll think of it later.

1524
02:15:48,000 --> 02:15:50,000
I'm sure.

1525
02:15:50,000 --> 02:15:53,000
Thank you, Luke. I think that does clarify quite a bit.

1526
02:15:53,000 --> 02:15:58,000
And Brad, did you have anything else? Thank you.

1527
02:15:58,000 --> 02:16:04,000
So we are at the, again, the resolution 20, 26, 0, 4, 2.

1528
02:16:04,000 --> 02:16:08,000
We're looking for a continued discussion or a motion.

1529
02:16:14,000 --> 02:16:18,000
Motion to approve resolution 20, 26, 0, 4, 2.

1530
02:16:18,000 --> 02:16:20,000
Thank you, Brad.

1531
02:16:21,000 --> 02:16:24,000
Seconded by Jan. Any discussion?

1532
02:16:26,000 --> 02:16:29,000
Seeing none, although some favor, please signify by saying aye.

1533
02:16:29,000 --> 02:16:30,000
Aye.

1534
02:16:30,000 --> 02:16:32,000
Any opposed?

1535
02:16:32,000 --> 02:16:34,000
Motion passes 6, 0.

1536
02:16:37,000 --> 02:16:42,000
Item number 10.1 is discussion and possible action regarding.

1537
02:16:42,000 --> 02:16:45,000
Resolution 20, 26, 0, 4, 3.

1538
02:16:45,000 --> 02:16:50,000
Resolution authorizing the village administrator and clerk.

1539
02:16:50,000 --> 02:16:54,000
Execute a development agreement with cascade development LLC.

1540
02:16:54,000 --> 02:16:59,000
The village board may convene into closed session as authorized by

1541
02:16:59,000 --> 02:17:01,000
Wisconsin statute.

1542
02:17:01,000 --> 02:17:05,000
1985 parent one, Aaron E.

1543
02:17:05,000 --> 02:17:10,000
For the purpose of deliberating or negotiating the purchasing of public

1544
02:17:10,000 --> 02:17:11,000
property.

1545
02:17:12,000 --> 02:17:16,000
Investment of public funds or conducting other specific specified

1546
02:17:16,000 --> 02:17:20,000
public businesses whenever competitive or bargaining reasons

1547
02:17:20,000 --> 02:17:22,000
required a closed session.

1548
02:17:22,000 --> 02:17:25,000
The village board may reconvene an open session and further

1549
02:17:25,000 --> 02:17:29,000
discuss or take action on the subject matter discussed in the

1550
02:17:29,000 --> 02:17:30,000
closed session.

1551
02:17:30,000 --> 02:17:35,000
And the staff presentation, I believe, is being started by Bill

1552
02:17:35,000 --> 02:17:36,000
chain.

1553
02:17:37,000 --> 02:17:43,000
I think I just accidentally closed out on the agenda.

1554
02:17:43,000 --> 02:17:47,000
So if you could pull that up by present, that would be great.

1555
02:17:50,000 --> 02:17:54,000
So this is the development agreement that can bring everything

1556
02:17:54,000 --> 02:17:56,000
together here, ultimately.

1557
02:17:56,000 --> 02:18:04,000
So as part of the proposal or the sports complex, we in talking

1558
02:18:04,000 --> 02:18:08,000
with cascade and knew that the sports complex was going to be the

1559
02:18:08,000 --> 02:18:11,000
hardest piece to finance.

1560
02:18:11,000 --> 02:18:16,000
As we understand it, the expenditure, the construction expenditure

1561
02:18:16,000 --> 02:18:22,000
into the sports facility itself is estimated about $40 million.

1562
02:18:22,000 --> 02:18:28,000
And to pull it together, cascade is requesting for $11 million in

1563
02:18:28,000 --> 02:18:31,000
tax increment financing.

1564
02:18:32,000 --> 02:18:35,000
And so when we thought about, you know, how do we get there, you

1565
02:18:35,000 --> 02:18:40,000
know, that really brought in these other projects, all the aspects

1566
02:18:40,000 --> 02:18:46,000
of the project, both on the residential side and as the

1567
02:18:46,000 --> 02:18:51,000
village historically has desired additional commercial

1568
02:18:51,000 --> 02:18:52,000
development.

1569
02:18:52,000 --> 02:18:57,000
And so in talking with cascade and talking about what type of

1570
02:18:57,000 --> 02:19:00,000
commercial we wanted to bring into the sector or the section that

1571
02:19:00,000 --> 02:19:05,000
would benefit, well, benefit not only just this project, but is phase

1572
02:19:05,000 --> 02:19:09,000
one, the hockey rink, et cetera.

1573
02:19:09,000 --> 02:19:15,000
Luke settled on the Marriott hotel, which would not only bring in

1574
02:19:15,000 --> 02:19:20,000
property tax revenue, but also bring in room tax revenue.

1575
02:19:21,000 --> 02:19:26,000
So as we walk through the development agreement, we have provisions in

1576
02:19:26,000 --> 02:19:30,000
there that are protective of the village.

1577
02:19:30,000 --> 02:19:35,000
First and foremost, the totality of the project, which would include

1578
02:19:35,000 --> 02:19:40,000
the sports facility, the hotel, and the residential

1579
02:19:40,000 --> 02:19:45,000
developments are required to meet certain guarantees.

1580
02:19:46,000 --> 02:19:51,000
All that the first guarantee are assessed value guarantees,

1581
02:19:51,000 --> 02:19:58,000
construction guarantees, tax increment guarantees in order to

1582
02:19:58,000 --> 02:20:02,000
receive any incentives from the village.

1583
02:20:02,000 --> 02:20:05,000
So I'll take this time to walk through some of that detail.

1584
02:20:05,000 --> 02:20:10,000
Feel free to stop me if you have questions.

1585
02:20:11,000 --> 02:20:16,000
So the most immediate deadline or requirement or obligation of the

1586
02:20:16,000 --> 02:20:21,000
developer is that construction on the facilities,

1587
02:20:21,000 --> 02:20:26,000
primarily grading and installation of utilities needs to start almost

1588
02:20:26,000 --> 02:20:27,000
immediately.

1589
02:20:27,000 --> 02:20:33,000
So before, no later than May 31, 2026.

1590
02:20:33,000 --> 02:20:39,000
Within the first year of construction, they need to get to 24.7 million

1591
02:20:39,000 --> 02:20:44,000
dollars of assessed value by January 1, 2027.

1592
02:20:44,000 --> 02:20:48,000
So that's 2026 construction.

1593
02:20:48,000 --> 02:20:53,000
They need to get to 68 million total of 68 million dollars in that

1594
02:20:53,000 --> 02:20:57,000
second guaranteed by January 1, 2028 assessment date.

1595
02:20:57,000 --> 02:21:04,000
So that's 2026 and 2027 construction.

1596
02:21:04,000 --> 02:21:08,000
And at the end of the day, when it's all said and done, they need to

1597
02:21:08,000 --> 02:21:17,000
get to at least 76 million dollars at the beginning of 2029.

1598
02:21:17,000 --> 02:21:21,000
That is something that the developer is comfortable with at those

1599
02:21:21,000 --> 02:21:23,000
numbers at the current mill rate.

1600
02:21:23,000 --> 02:21:29,000
What that does is it brings in $430,000 in tax increment,

1601
02:21:29,000 --> 02:21:34,000
newly created tax increment in 2028.

1602
02:21:34,000 --> 02:21:39,000
That's about 1.2 million dollars of tax revenue or income at revenue in

1603
02:21:39,000 --> 02:21:40,000
2029.

1604
02:21:40,000 --> 02:21:45,000
And then 1.3 million in 2030 and thereafter.

1605
02:21:45,000 --> 02:21:53,000
And those are all guarantees that the developer is comfortable with.

1606
02:21:53,000 --> 02:22:00,000
If upon construction start, the village would then issue what's

1607
02:22:00,000 --> 02:22:05,000
called a municipal revenue obligation bond or in the agreement is

1608
02:22:05,000 --> 02:22:08,000
referenced as the facility bond.

1609
02:22:08,000 --> 02:22:13,000
What that is, it's a promise from the village to make payment to the

1610
02:22:13,000 --> 02:22:18,000
developer or the incentive payments so long as they meet the

1611
02:22:18,000 --> 02:22:24,000
requirements or their obligations within the development agreement.

1612
02:22:25,000 --> 02:22:31,000
What that does is it provides up to 11 million over the lifetime of the tax

1613
02:22:31,000 --> 02:22:36,000
increment district, utilizing 90% of the tax increment created from the

1614
02:22:36,000 --> 02:22:42,000
properties for which the construction or the development has taken place.

1615
02:22:42,000 --> 02:22:46,000
So it's not taking money from from or it's not taking revenues from any

1616
02:22:46,000 --> 02:22:51,000
other development in the tax or district or from anywhere else in the village.

1617
02:22:51,000 --> 02:22:56,000
It's all new tax revenue created from the project that he is going to do.

1618
02:22:59,000 --> 02:23:01,000
And again, it's whatever comes first.

1619
02:23:01,000 --> 02:23:03,000
It's either 11 million.

1620
02:23:03,000 --> 02:23:08,000
If the SUS value goes up or in the meantime, the mill rate goes up and we

1621
02:23:08,000 --> 02:23:12,000
bring in more revenues if you get to 11 million ahead of that.

1622
02:23:12,000 --> 02:23:16,000
The remainder of the tax increment district life village has the opportunity

1623
02:23:16,000 --> 02:23:20,000
to pay off early and close the tax increment early.

1624
02:23:21,000 --> 02:23:25,000
If something should happen, knock on wood.

1625
02:23:25,000 --> 02:23:30,000
And we don't get to the million in the time of the tax increment district

1626
02:23:30,000 --> 02:23:32,000
statutorily closes.

1627
02:23:32,000 --> 02:23:35,000
And then that's the, that's the rest that they take on.

1628
02:23:38,000 --> 02:23:43,000
We also have in here a value covenant, what states that, you know,

1629
02:23:43,000 --> 02:23:49,000
the developer is going to record that the values of the properties will remain as

1630
02:23:49,000 --> 02:23:51,000
stated here.

1631
02:23:51,000 --> 02:23:56,000
So that we don't run into a situation where the assessments,

1632
02:23:56,000 --> 02:23:59,000
the assessment values are challenged.

1633
02:23:59,000 --> 02:24:06,000
Therefore, potentially reducing the increment and putting us in a tough spot

1634
02:24:06,000 --> 02:24:10,000
because our payment may be upside down.

1635
02:24:11,000 --> 02:24:16,000
So that's the majority of the main items here.

1636
02:24:16,000 --> 02:24:22,000
Some legal lease at the back of the agreement is a revenue bond or that

1637
02:24:22,000 --> 02:24:25,000
facility bond language.

1638
02:24:25,000 --> 02:24:29,000
I want to reiterate that this is a pay as you go bond.

1639
02:24:29,000 --> 02:24:33,000
So, you know, if we don't receive the tax increment,

1640
02:24:33,000 --> 02:24:36,000
then we don't pay the incentive.

1641
02:24:37,000 --> 02:24:39,000
Happy to answer any questions.

1642
02:24:39,000 --> 02:24:41,000
Thank you.

1643
02:24:41,000 --> 02:24:43,000
So no public appearances.

1644
02:24:43,000 --> 02:24:46,000
So discussion and hospital action.

1645
02:24:46,000 --> 02:24:49,000
Anybody want to start with this question?

1646
02:24:50,000 --> 02:25:15,000
I guess I have one thing that seeing one concern I have is the value that's,

1647
02:25:15,000 --> 02:25:18,000
that's promised for the January 1st, 2027.

1648
02:25:19,000 --> 02:25:23,000
Just seeing where we are in the year and knowing what it will take to say,

1649
02:25:23,000 --> 02:25:28,000
get a through site plan, probably permitting through DNR.

1650
02:25:28,000 --> 02:25:35,000
And then also the procurement of whatever they need to construct to get it up by

1651
02:25:35,000 --> 02:25:36,000
then.

1652
02:25:36,000 --> 02:25:42,000
I wonder how much of a concern that is and is that value attempted to be

1653
02:25:42,000 --> 02:25:47,000
added through like the hotel or is that the sports complex, you know,

1654
02:25:47,000 --> 02:25:49,000
the value is all the properties.

1655
02:25:49,000 --> 02:25:56,000
So the sports complex, the hotel and the residential construction.

1656
02:25:56,000 --> 02:26:02,000
Luke can talk more about his construction phasing, but the timing of those

1657
02:26:02,000 --> 02:26:10,000
values is important because of the life expectancy of the tax increment district.

1658
02:26:10,000 --> 02:26:14,000
Obviously, we want more value up front.

1659
02:26:14,000 --> 02:26:17,000
That provides more increment up front.

1660
02:26:17,000 --> 02:26:19,000
But later you push it off.

1661
02:26:19,000 --> 02:26:23,000
The more at risk you become and not paying the whole bond.

1662
02:26:23,000 --> 02:26:24,000
Yep.

1663
02:26:24,000 --> 02:26:26,000
I can understand why the value is important.

1664
02:26:26,000 --> 02:26:28,000
It just seems very aggressive.

1665
02:26:28,000 --> 02:26:32,000
So I don't know if you want to comment on that.

1666
02:26:32,000 --> 02:26:33,000
Yep.

1667
02:26:33,000 --> 02:26:34,000
Yeah.

1668
02:26:34,000 --> 02:26:36,000
I never know what I'm allowed to speak with the different rules.

1669
02:26:36,000 --> 02:26:37,000
So yeah.

1670
02:26:37,000 --> 02:26:40,000
I guess I thought of this as, as we're going.

1671
02:26:41,000 --> 02:26:44,000
I know Colin has those signs other than the tough job experts.

1672
02:26:44,000 --> 02:26:48,000
Me and Bill keep coming up with these things that seem a little bit

1673
02:26:48,000 --> 02:26:49,000
of possible, but.

1674
02:26:49,000 --> 02:26:52,000
And we kind of thread the needle, pull it off.

1675
02:26:52,000 --> 02:26:57,000
It's very similar to the hockey rink where we were under strict time

1676
02:26:57,000 --> 02:27:04,000
constraints, both in starting before the tip district or the TID allowed us

1677
02:27:04,000 --> 02:27:05,000
to.

1678
02:27:05,000 --> 02:27:09,000
And then also getting the increment values up in time to meet all these

1679
02:27:09,000 --> 02:27:10,000
numbers.

1680
02:27:10,000 --> 02:27:13,000
And we've spent a fair amount of time going over the schedule.

1681
02:27:13,000 --> 02:27:15,000
I've gotten comfortable with it.

1682
02:27:15,000 --> 02:27:17,000
We've gone back and forth.

1683
02:27:17,000 --> 02:27:20,000
It's adding the hotel was a game changer, I think.

1684
02:27:20,000 --> 02:27:24,000
From the development standpoint, as far as the value to the

1685
02:27:24,000 --> 02:27:28,000
municipality, but also adding to the to the district from a

1686
02:27:28,000 --> 02:27:30,000
standpoint of the timing and the construction.

1687
02:27:30,000 --> 02:27:34,000
We've got a lot going and it's going to go fast.

1688
02:27:34,000 --> 02:27:37,000
We're going to we'll be in the ground late May.

1689
02:27:38,000 --> 02:27:41,000
I already have a commitment letter from the bank.

1690
02:27:41,000 --> 02:27:44,000
I'm going to use on the first phase of the apartments.

1691
02:27:44,000 --> 02:27:48,000
And we're working on the appraisal now and in early stages on the

1692
02:27:48,000 --> 02:27:49,000
hotel financing.

1693
02:27:49,000 --> 02:27:51,000
So it's all coming together.

1694
02:27:51,000 --> 02:27:53,000
I feel comfortable that we'll be able to perform.

1695
02:27:53,000 --> 02:27:56,000
If you can go back to it's very similar.

1696
02:27:56,000 --> 02:28:02,000
Making phase one is we've exceeded the schedule that we had in the

1697
02:28:02,000 --> 02:28:05,000
phase one of the forest shards and we're had a schedule there and

1698
02:28:05,000 --> 02:28:10,000
we'll meet our requirement way earlier than had anticipated.

1699
02:28:10,000 --> 02:28:12,000
The goal here is to do that.

1700
02:28:12,000 --> 02:28:17,000
I think what we looked at my risk, if you will, it's more of a

1701
02:28:17,000 --> 02:28:21,000
cascade risk than is a village risk because with the pay as you

1702
02:28:21,000 --> 02:28:26,000
go program, I only get, you know, back a percentage of what I pay

1703
02:28:26,000 --> 02:28:27,000
in.

1704
02:28:27,000 --> 02:28:30,000
So if I don't perform, then I'm the one at risk.

1705
02:28:30,000 --> 02:28:32,000
Of course, which not good for anybody.

1706
02:28:32,000 --> 02:28:36,000
But so one of the things to kind of alleviate that is the

1707
02:28:36,000 --> 02:28:39,000
economic conditions with second phases.

1708
02:28:39,000 --> 02:28:42,000
It would be a topic if, if I was looking at this on the other

1709
02:28:42,000 --> 02:28:43,000
side of it.

1710
02:28:43,000 --> 02:28:47,000
And so what we really, we put as much as we could into the phase

1711
02:28:47,000 --> 02:28:51,000
one that we're starting now, which is the hotel and the 228

1712
02:28:51,000 --> 02:28:54,000
units that are in front of you guys and all the other approvals,

1713
02:28:54,000 --> 02:29:01,000
as well as the sports facility and probably 85, 90% of the values

1714
02:29:01,000 --> 02:29:03,000
created in that first phase.

1715
02:29:03,000 --> 02:29:05,000
And we obviously are committing to doing that.

1716
02:29:05,000 --> 02:29:08,000
We'll have a shovel on the ground inside of six weeks.

1717
02:29:08,000 --> 02:29:12,000
And we, we've taken a conservative approach, I would say,

1718
02:29:12,000 --> 02:29:14,000
Bill could speak to it too.

1719
02:29:14,000 --> 02:29:19,000
I think we got to perform to probably 75% of what we are

1720
02:29:19,000 --> 02:29:21,000
throwing in this.

1721
02:29:21,000 --> 02:29:25,000
If we do 75% of it, we'll meet those, those values.

1722
02:29:25,000 --> 02:29:27,000
And that's without taking into account inflation.

1723
02:29:27,000 --> 02:29:32,000
So that's kind of our second backup is about five to six

1724
02:29:32,000 --> 02:29:33,000
percent a year.

1725
02:29:33,000 --> 02:29:37,000
Property values have gone up or assessments have gone up.

1726
02:29:37,000 --> 02:29:44,000
So we, we had a really good sample with the park and what they

1727
02:29:44,000 --> 02:29:46,000
were paying in property taxes.

1728
02:29:46,000 --> 02:29:48,000
We applied that to the forest yards.

1729
02:29:48,000 --> 02:29:50,000
We now have the park and the forest yards and then now have

1730
02:29:50,000 --> 02:29:53,000
applied that to the second phase.

1731
02:29:53,000 --> 02:29:55,000
So yeah, it's, it's aggressive.

1732
02:29:55,000 --> 02:30:00,000
But that's why we, I'll be in your guys' meetings here for the

1733
02:30:00,000 --> 02:30:03,000
next, I think six to eight weeks with all these approvals.

1734
02:30:03,000 --> 02:30:07,000
So we're set to meet all of those phase one timelines.

1735
02:30:07,000 --> 02:30:09,000
Long answer for you.

1736
02:30:09,000 --> 02:30:10,000
Yep.

1737
02:30:10,000 --> 02:30:11,000
Thank you very much, Luke.

1738
02:30:11,000 --> 02:30:13,000
And I think Brad, you had a question.

1739
02:30:13,000 --> 02:30:17,000
Bill, when is a two, seven inch set to expire?

1740
02:30:17,000 --> 02:30:20,000
So the expenditure period.

1741
02:30:20,000 --> 02:30:24,000
And I believe really part of June.

1742
02:30:24,000 --> 02:30:29,000
And then it runs, I believe for another 11 years and thereafter.

1743
02:30:29,000 --> 02:30:33,000
2037 is the, the closing date.

1744
02:30:33,000 --> 02:30:37,000
And then how much TIFF was provided in the phase one project for the

1745
02:30:37,000 --> 02:30:38,000
ice rink?

1746
02:30:38,000 --> 02:30:43,000
Off the top of my head here, I think it was close to,

1747
02:30:43,000 --> 02:30:46,000
I want to say 11 million to.

1748
02:30:46,000 --> 02:30:50,000
So it was an 8.5 million for the, the rink itself.

1749
02:30:50,000 --> 02:30:56,000
And then there was some public infrastructure incentives as,

1750
02:30:56,000 --> 02:31:00,000
as part of Monticello extension.

1751
02:31:00,000 --> 02:31:03,000
And then the highway 51.

1752
02:31:03,000 --> 02:31:06,000
Well, it must break away Pepsi Way interchange.

1753
02:31:06,000 --> 02:31:07,000
Yeah.

1754
02:31:07,000 --> 02:31:10,000
And just to clarify, nine million for the sports piece,

1755
02:31:10,000 --> 02:31:13,000
the intersection piece that we tacked down at the end is what,

1756
02:31:13,000 --> 02:31:16,000
what drove that up. But specifically for our development,

1757
02:31:16,000 --> 02:31:21,000
it was one and a half million for Monticello Way and 8 million

1758
02:31:21,000 --> 02:31:25,000
for the sports facility, which turns into much less with the

1759
02:31:25,000 --> 02:31:27,000
financing piece of it.

1760
02:31:27,000 --> 02:31:30,000
And what I have to do is go get financing with that developer's

1761
02:31:30,000 --> 02:31:35,000
agreement with my guarantee and then finance it on the front end

1762
02:31:35,000 --> 02:31:39,000
for the future payments that, that we would get that are coming.

1763
02:31:40,000 --> 02:31:45,000
So actually very, the RIC, I think about two million has been

1764
02:31:45,000 --> 02:31:48,000
paid out and Bill has all the numbers, but most of that's

1765
02:31:48,000 --> 02:31:52,000
now coming in future years as my tax payments will be coming in

1766
02:31:52,000 --> 02:31:54,000
on the first phase. So similar setup.

1767
02:31:54,000 --> 02:31:57,000
Actually more, more favorable setup for the village.

1768
02:31:57,000 --> 02:32:00,000
We had a little back and forth being a bill, but there's

1769
02:32:00,000 --> 02:32:04,000
reasons this district is tougher for me to work in than the first

1770
02:32:04,000 --> 02:32:07,000
one. So, but we worked through those challenges with Bill and

1771
02:32:07,000 --> 02:32:09,000
Al Reiner.

1772
02:32:09,000 --> 02:32:14,000
Thank you, Luke. Anything else?

1773
02:32:14,000 --> 02:32:16,000
Anybody else further?

1774
02:32:16,000 --> 02:32:19,000
Yeah, and I want to reiterate that they're in two different tax

1775
02:32:19,000 --> 02:32:21,000
increment districts.

1776
02:32:21,000 --> 02:32:27,000
Very different situations in regards to the tax increment

1777
02:32:27,000 --> 02:32:34,000
being generated passing current and versus future, which is here.

1778
02:32:34,000 --> 02:32:36,000
Thank you.

1779
02:32:36,000 --> 02:32:43,000
Any further discussion or we do have the resolution in front of

1780
02:32:44,000 --> 02:32:46,000
us?

1781
02:32:46,000 --> 02:33:09,000
Sorry, let me get to the correct resolution here.

1782
02:33:10,000 --> 02:33:19,000
There you go.

1783
02:33:19,000 --> 02:33:24,000
Resolution two, zero, two, six dash, zero, four, three.

1784
02:33:24,000 --> 02:33:28,000
Thank you.

1785
02:33:28,000 --> 02:33:32,000
I'll make a motion to approve 2026 dash.

1786
02:33:33,000 --> 02:33:35,000
Zero, four, three.

1787
02:33:35,000 --> 02:33:37,000
Is there a second?

1788
02:33:37,000 --> 02:33:42,000
Motion by Colleen, seconded by Jan.

1789
02:33:42,000 --> 02:33:44,000
Any further discussion?

1790
02:33:44,000 --> 02:33:49,000
I just want to make a comment.

1791
02:33:49,000 --> 02:33:54,000
This is something that I think we've all kind of decided that we

1792
02:33:54,000 --> 02:33:56,000
wanted and would be good for the community.

1793
02:33:57,000 --> 02:34:04,000
I think that the developer working with Luke has been a good

1794
02:34:04,000 --> 02:34:07,000
choice in the past and I think it will be going forward.

1795
02:34:07,000 --> 02:34:13,000
And we also have the willing parties of Hooper and down

1796
02:34:13,000 --> 02:34:17,000
tyranny that have come forward and have helped make this happen.

1797
02:34:17,000 --> 02:34:23,000
So I think that we should probably go ahead with this and now

1798
02:34:23,000 --> 02:34:27,000
give the government okay.

1799
02:34:27,000 --> 02:34:29,000
Thank you, Jan.

1800
02:34:29,000 --> 02:34:34,000
Anybody else wishing to comment or discuss?

1801
02:34:34,000 --> 02:34:38,000
Yes, I will say something as long as the same lines as Jan.

1802
02:34:38,000 --> 02:34:43,000
I appreciate working with Luke and it's a bit of a trust because

1803
02:34:43,000 --> 02:34:46,000
this is a big number.

1804
02:34:46,000 --> 02:34:51,000
But also knowing I'm comforted with the hotel coming in and

1805
02:34:51,000 --> 02:34:56,000
there's room taxes coming and something that I've been aware of

1806
02:34:56,000 --> 02:34:59,000
I think was through planning and zoning is that there is a couple

1807
02:34:59,000 --> 02:35:02,000
of other developments that will be coming.

1808
02:35:02,000 --> 02:35:03,000
I don't know.

1809
02:35:03,000 --> 02:35:06,000
Alex, if you want to allude to that, I know there's at least one

1810
02:35:06,000 --> 02:35:08,000
site plan that I think you've seen.

1811
02:35:08,000 --> 02:35:09,000
Yeah.

1812
02:35:09,000 --> 02:35:14,000
So on the lots just south of the multifamily that looks

1813
02:35:14,000 --> 02:35:18,000
proposing here, if you want to pull up the first lot at the corner,

1814
02:35:18,000 --> 02:35:22,000
there's a, I guess like a multi tenant commercial development

1815
02:35:22,000 --> 02:35:25,000
that's being proposed there proposed.

1816
02:35:25,000 --> 02:35:28,000
I'd say that, but it hasn't really gone through any process yet.

1817
02:35:28,000 --> 02:35:32,000
They're very early in their planning stages.

1818
02:35:32,000 --> 02:35:36,000
But I know that the activity that's been going on in this district

1819
02:35:36,000 --> 02:35:39,000
has been a driving force for them looking here.

1820
02:35:39,000 --> 02:35:42,000
And hopefully that would lead to further development.

1821
02:35:42,000 --> 02:35:45,000
I know they also have some plans on some of the loss to the

1822
02:35:45,000 --> 02:35:46,000
East of there as well.

1823
02:35:47,000 --> 02:35:51,000
And I guess that's goes into some of my decision as I feel like

1824
02:35:51,000 --> 02:35:55,000
this can really pull in some more businesses there and probably

1825
02:35:55,000 --> 02:35:59,000
adds quite a bit to selling the residential lots that are now

1826
02:35:59,000 --> 02:36:01,000
available at Homestead.

1827
02:36:01,000 --> 02:36:02,000
So.

1828
02:36:03,000 --> 02:36:04,000
Thank you.

1829
02:36:04,000 --> 02:36:06,000
Any other comments?

1830
02:36:08,000 --> 02:36:09,000
Okay.

1831
02:36:09,000 --> 02:36:11,000
Seeing no discussion.

1832
02:36:11,000 --> 02:36:14,000
I'm going to ask everybody in favor of the motion.

1833
02:36:14,000 --> 02:36:16,000
Please signify by saying aye.

1834
02:36:16,000 --> 02:36:17,000
Aye.

1835
02:36:17,000 --> 02:36:18,000
Aye.

1836
02:36:18,000 --> 02:36:19,000
Any opposed?

1837
02:36:20,000 --> 02:36:22,000
Motion passes six zero.

1838
02:36:22,000 --> 02:36:24,000
Thank you all.

1839
02:36:28,000 --> 02:36:33,000
And I believe that takes care of actually 12.1 also.

1840
02:36:36,000 --> 02:36:40,000
So item number 13 is a check register.

1841
02:36:40,000 --> 02:36:44,000
I would ask if you have any questions for them on to Bill

1842
02:36:44,000 --> 02:36:45,000
or Carol.

1843
02:36:45,000 --> 02:36:47,000
Or is it Brandon?

1844
02:36:49,000 --> 02:36:50,000
And that's the.

1845
02:36:52,000 --> 02:36:54,000
CC CC grant.

1846
02:36:54,000 --> 02:36:55,000
Yeah.

1847
02:36:57,000 --> 02:37:04,000
I don't 1414.1 and 14.11 public safety commission minutes.

1848
02:37:05,000 --> 02:37:09,000
I guess maybe I'll just run through it and take them all.

1849
02:37:09,000 --> 02:37:12,000
There is the minutes in the agenda.

1850
02:37:12,000 --> 02:37:16,000
Is there anybody wishing a comment or questions?

1851
02:37:17,000 --> 02:37:19,000
Moving on to President's report.

1852
02:37:19,000 --> 02:37:21,000
We currently don't have one.

1853
02:37:21,000 --> 02:37:23,000
So Bill, is there anything?

1854
02:37:25,000 --> 02:37:28,000
We are working on a committee commissions and board

1855
02:37:28,000 --> 02:37:29,000
appointments.

1856
02:37:29,000 --> 02:37:33,000
I think I've reached out to the most of you about that, Brad.

1857
02:37:33,000 --> 02:37:37,000
We needed to just to talk about your, your appointments.

1858
02:37:37,000 --> 02:37:43,000
But we'll plan to have that come to the board at the next meeting.

1859
02:37:43,000 --> 02:37:47,000
Have some of those appointments need to be made before.

1860
02:37:47,000 --> 02:37:49,000
May 1st here.

1861
02:37:50,000 --> 02:37:51,000
Thank you, Bill.

1862
02:37:51,000 --> 02:37:52,000
I'm number 16.

1863
02:37:52,000 --> 02:37:56,000
Any other business that lawfully comes before the board.

1864
02:37:58,000 --> 02:37:59,000
Seeing none.

1865
02:38:00,000 --> 02:38:01,000
German.

1866
02:38:01,000 --> 02:38:03,000
Did you have something to say to you?

1867
02:38:05,000 --> 02:38:07,000
Just making sure no one in the audience had anything.

1868
02:38:08,000 --> 02:38:09,000
Okay.

1869
