REPORTS. I KNOW SOME OF THE COMMITTEES HAVE MET IN. SOME HAVE NOT, UM, COMMITTEE COMMITMENT ON DO YOU HAVE AN UPDATE? UM I DO NOT. YOU DO NOT TALK. I DO NOT THINK I GAVE MY REPORT THAT LAST NIGHT ISN'T AMAZING. YOU KIND OF FORGET YOU LIKE DIDN'T GET THAT EITHER BECAUSE MOST PEOPLE DON'T VACATION EXACTLY. AND NO BEANS IN AUGUST. SAME ACTUALLY, WE DIDN'T HAVE MEETINGS, BUT I WANTED TO KNOW THE RECREATION DEPARTMENT HAD A MONTGOMERY NIGHT AT THE PATRIOTS, WHICH IS WHICH IS VERY SUCCESSFUL, AND WE ALSO HAD MOVIE NIGHT. UM I THINK IT WAS MARIO BROTHERS MOVIE IN THE PARK, AND THERE WERE A LOT OF RESIDENTS WHO ENJOYED IT.BUT, YES, I JUST WANTED TO BRING THAT TO PEOPLE'S ATTENTION. THAT RECREATION DEPARTMENT HAS BEEN BUSY. BUT EVERYBODY ELSE IS ON VACATION, SO OKAY. I DON'T HAVE ANY COMMITTEE REPORTS. BUT I WOULD IF YOU DON'T MIND. I KNOW YOU'VE BEEN WORKING A LOT ON PUBLIC SAFETY. CAN YOU SORRY TO PUT YOU ON THE SPOT YOU CAN YOU GIVE US JUST AN UPDATED, SO THERE'S A LOT OF ACTIVITY? YES SO WE ACTUALLY I'LL HAVE A REPORT FOR THE NEXT MEETING IN DETAIL. BUT IN THE MEANWHILE WE HAVE BOOKED REALLY HARD ON THE SAFETY COMMITTEE, AND WE HAD SOME INITIATIVES. IF PEOPLE HAVE SEEN THE SIGNS ON 206 URGING OUR RESIDENTS TO USE THE CROSSWALK, AND OF COURSE, MONTGOMERY CARES ABOUT YOU SIGNS AND THAT'S ENCOURAGING RESIDENTS TO BE CAREFUL WHEN THEY'RE CROSSING OVER 206 AND, YOU KNOW, WE WANT TO MAKE SURE PEOPLE ARE SAFE AND THEN WE ALSO HAD TO COMMUNITY MEETINGS NOW WHERE WE HAD RESIDENTS. WE HAD STAKEHOLDERS IN THE TOWNSHIP WHO MET AND I'LL HAVE MORE DETAILS ON IT, BUT SEEMS LIKE THERE IS A LOT OF INTEREST TO MAKE SURE MONTGOMERY IS SAFE OUR SIDEWALKS AS YOU KNOW, IN FACT, COMING TO MEN, BARICAN WAS PART OF THE ONE OF THE SIDEWALKS THAT GOT OPENED RIGHT HERE NEAR HIS NEIGHBORHOOD . SO ANOTHER SAFETY INITIATIVE AND I DON'T KNOW IF YOU WANTED TO SAY ANYTHING ABOUT YOUR RESIDENTS BEING VERY HAPPY TO BE THERE. SO HAPPY TO BE ABLE TO CROSS THE STREET SAFELY. PEOPLE WORRY AS YOU CAN IMAGINE. EITHER HAVING A PRETTY WALK DOWN SOME WAYS TO DO TWO FOR ANOTHER CROSSWALK. OR AS YOU CAN IMAGINE, PEOPLE ARE JUST CROSSING THE STREET. AND SO THIS IS GREAT. I THINK THAT IS THAT IS A PLUS ONE MONTGOMERY THAT WE ARE WORKING ON SIDEWALKS AND CROSSWALKS. WE JUST WANT TO HAVE THIS CONNECTIVITY WALK ABILITY IN MONTGOMERY AND WE'RE VERY GLAD THAT WE'RE ALL WORKING TOGETHER TO GET THAT DONE. I'M LOOKING FORWARD TO THAT. SO I COULD ADD, YOU KNOW, MEANING LAST NIGHT, I'M JUST REALLY THANKFUL THAT WE HAD SO MANY ATTENDEES. IT WAS SO GREAT TO HEAR THEIR CONCERNS. IT'S HARD FOR SOMETIMES THAT HERE, YOU KNOW, WE LIVE IN THE IN THE TOWNSHIP, BUT YOU KNOW THAT ROOM WAS PACKED AND HERE STRAIGHT AND I THINK REALLY HELPS INFLUENCE LIKE THE THINGS THAT WE NEED TO FOR A TOWNSHIP SO I HOPE PEOPLE CONTINUE TO ATTEND THESE MEETINGS. THANK YOU SO MUCH. IT WAS WELL ATTENDED, AND THAT'S VERY GOOD IN THE MIDDLE OF THE SUMMER, SO KUDOS TO YOU. THANK YOU FOR ALL FOR ATTENDING. UM BEFORE I TURNED OVER, IT'S KIND OF RELATED TO THAT. BUT I'M GOING TO TURN OVER TO THE ADMINISTRATOR. BUT CAN YOU MAKE SURE YOU TELL US WHAT THE HECK IS GOING ON WITH BRACKNELL WAY? HOW COME IT'S NOT OPEN YET? SO WE DO HAVE AN UPDATE. THEY ARE VERY, VERY CLOSE TO FINISHING IT CLOSE. BUT WHEN IS IT GOING TO BE DONE? THE WHERE IT BRACKNELL WAY ROAD LEADS TO A COUNTY ROAD, 5 18 COUNTY NEEDS TO COME OUT AND DO THEIR INSPECTION AS WELL. SO I KNOW THAT THAT IS IN THE PROCESS OF BEING SCHEDULED. AND ALL OF THOSE DETAILS. UM THERE IS A SMALL ISSUE WITH THE, UM AS YOU'RE HEADING UP BREXIT NOW BEFORE WE CAN TAKE IT OVER. OBVIOUSLY ALL OF THE IMPROVEMENTS HAVE TO BE DONE TO THE SATISFACTION IT WILL BECOME A MUNICIPAL ROADWAY. THE GUARD RAIL. THERE'S A LITTLE, UM, IN THE GUIDE RAIL HAS A LITTLE ISSUE WITH ONE OF THE LIGHT POLE , SO IT JUST NEEDS TO BE A LITTLE WORK NEEDS TO BE DONE TO MAKE THAT CONFORM TO OUR STANDARDS. SAFETY OF COURSE, WE DON'T WANT TO TAKE IT OVER IN GOOD SHAPE AND STAFF HAVE BEEN OUT THERE WITH THE DEVELOPERS, BOTH DEVELOPERS AND DEPUTY MAYOR HAS BEEN OUT THERE AND MET THEIR SITE PROJECT. UM SUPERVISOR AS WELL TO EXPRESS THE CONCERNS OF THE COMMUNITY IN TERMS OF THE TIMELINESS OF THE OPENING OF THE ROAD, AND MORE MOVEMENT IS HAPPENING THERE.
