[VI. INTODUCTION - AN ORDINANCE 2023-02 ESTABLISHING A COMPREHENSIVE FEE SCHEDULE FOR THE TOWNSHIP OF MONTGOMERY BOARD OF HEALTH, AND TO PROVIDE FOR ITS ADMINISTRATION IN 2023.]

[00:05:02]

SO THIS IS THE SUMMARY LIST. BUT IN THE ORDINANCE, WE ALSO HAVE OUR LICENSING FEES TO THAT WILL BE WILL UPDATE OUR $1 PET LICENSE LATE FEE TO $10. YES YES , YES. SO THAT WAS GOOD. SO WE'LL WE'LL ADD THAT TO OURS ARE SCHEDULED LISTENER BUDGET THAT'S GONNA BOUNCE SO MUCH. THAT'S RIGHT. OKAY HAVE HIM MOTION TO APPROVED. OKAY, SECOND, PLEASE AGAIN. THANK YOU JUST HAVE A QUESTION. I'M SORRY. SORRY. GO AHEAD REGARDING THESE FEES RATES SO WE ARE UPPING IT FROM 1 52 TO 50, ETCETERA, ETCETERA. SO WHAT'S THE RATIONALE OF SELECTING THIS OTHER DOLLAR AMOUNT? WHY CAN'T IT BE? 3 50. OR 500. THESE NUMBERS COME FROM. DO WE HAVE RESTRICTIONS AND X PERCENTAGE HOW WE COULD DO LIKE WHAT? WHAT'S THE THIS IS BASED ON STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS AND YOU KNOW BY WE COMPARED IT TO OUR NEIGHBORS AND TO SEE WHAT THEIR FEE STRUCTURES AGENDA FEW. IF THERE'S ANYTHING THAT. NO, IT FINANCED IT. HELP US OUT A LITTLE BIT, BUT YEAH, BASICALLY, IT WAS KIND OF LIKE JUST A SURROUNDING TOWNS WITH THEIR CHARGING IT. OKAY, SO THAT'S THE NORM. THAT'S THE RATIONALE. RETAIL FOOD SERVICE AT 1 TO 50 150 THEMES. NOTHING. YOU KNOW, WHY CAN'T WE DO IT MORE? HMM OKAY. OR YOU KNOW OTHER PERMITS ETCETERA TO I'M JUST CURIOUS, YOU KNOW? I KNOW WE ARE UPPING IT. THAT'S THE IDEA. I GET IT. YEAH THIS IS LIKE OUR BEST REASONABLE ATTEMPT TO BEING IT BEING THE AMOUNT WE CAN ALWAYS YOU KNOW, WE CAN ALWAYS REASSESS AND IF WE THINK THAT THERE'S IT'S WARRANTED TO FURTHER INCREASE THE FEES, WE CAN DO IT IN THE FUTURE, BUT FOR NOW, YOU KNOW WE ONE OF THE THINGS THAT YOU KNOW, I KNOW THAT THE TOWNSHIP COMMITTEE AND ADMINISTRATION WANTED US TO DO WAS TO REALLY FOCUS ON THE BOARD OF HEALTH FEE STRUCTURE BECAUSE THEY'RE JUST SO OUTDATED. AND OUR FEES HAVE ARE MUCH LOWER THAN UNDER OUR NEIGHBORING COUNTERPARTS. SO LIKE IF YOU MENTIONED OUTDATED, SO WHENEVER IT WAS UPDATED, CAN WE COUNT THOSE YEARS AND WHAT THE ASSUMPTION WOULD BE TOO UPSET SINCE THEN, AND MAKE THAT NUMBER HMM. DOES THAT MAKE SENSE? I DON'T THINK IT'S GOING TO FLY BECAUSE WE LOOK AT OUR NEIGHBORS. AND THEN IF WE GO TOO HIGH, THEN WE'LL HAVE EVERYBODY.

I MEAN, WE DON'T GET PEOPLE AT THE TOWNSHIP COMMITTEE MEETINGS, BUT WE WILL HAVE EVERYBODY IN ARMS SAYING HOW ARE YOU COMING WITH THIS NUMBER? SO BETTER TO GO WITH WHAT OUR NEIGHBORS ARE CHARGING. AND THAT THAT'S RATIONALE. BUT THE ONE HE'S RIGHT IF WE IN A YEAR OR SO FEEL THAT THIS IS YOU KNOW, NOT WORKING WITH HOW INFLATION IS, WE CAN ALWAYS UP AT THAT POINT.

EXACTLY THAT'S EXACTLY THE CONCERN RIGHT INFLATION FACTOR POTENTIALLY BE CONCERNED.

DETAILS DON'T LICENSES FEES DEDICATED UPON CAPACITY AND SIZES. THEY'RE SEPARATE CHARGE FOR EACH ONE OF THOSE OR WAS LIKE WHICHEVER WHICHEVER ONE IS MORE OR FOR THAT. OR YEAH, SO THIS IS BASED ON THE STATE'S LICENSING REQUIREMENTS. SO IF IT'S LIKE 1000 SQUARE 10,000 SQUARE FEET, BUT ONLY SEATS 50. THEN THEY WOULD YOU EVEN CHOOSE BETWEEN 6 5100 AND 50. NO, I THINK THE HEALTH INSPECTORS THEY KNOW WHICH ONE TO USE, UM I COULDN'T TELL YOU AT THIS AT THIS POINT, BUT I KNOW THAT IT'S THEY DON'T CHARGE THEM. BOTH OF THOSE FEES WOULD BE EITHER OR IT DEPENDS ON ON WHAT THE ESTABLISHMENT IS, TOO. I JUST CARED. IS THIS A TYPE 4 2013? IT WAS? YES WE'RE JUST LIKE WORKING ON IT. I'M LIKE A BABY DIRECTED THINKING ABOUT TIME DECAYED, YOU KNOW? YEAH IT FEELS LIKE DAVID LIKE 10 YEARS IN THE MAKING IT TO THE PUBLIC. THE PUBLIC POLLS ARE ALSO COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT UNDER THE SUBJECT ISSUE RIGHT NOW 2019 EIGHTIES OR SOMETHING.

[00:10:04]

[VII. Health Officer Comments]

WHAT WHAT WILL THEY HELP WITHIN VERSUS? WHAT DO WE DO, SO WE'RE STILL FIGURING OUT WHAT THAT LOOKS LIKE IN STREAMLINING THOSE PROCEDURES INTERNALLY, BUT SO FAR, IT'S BEEN MANAGEABLE, OKAY? THINGS WILL PICK UP IN THE FALL, SO HEALTHY. UM. ONE MORE ANIMAL CONTROL OFFICER WAS RESPONSIBLE FOR DEAD DEER REMOVAL. IT'S NOT LIKE THE PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT. MOST OF THOSE REQUESTS WERE WITH THE ANIMAL CONTROL OFFICER. THE POLICE ALSO WOULD PUT IN THOSE REQUESTS. WE DO HAVE A DEER REMOVAL COMPANY, SO IT'S MOST MOST OF THE TIME IS PUTTING IN THOSE DEFENDING THOSE REQUESTS TO THAT COMPANY. BUT THERE WERE AND THERE WILL BE TIMES WHERE THERE'S AN ANIMAL ON IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD AND ON THE HIGHWAY THAT IT'S TIME SENSITIVE AND YOU NEED FOR ME TO GO THERE RIGHT AWAY IN THOSE CASES, POLICE OFFICERS AND ANIMAL CONTROL OFFICERS WOULD WOULD HELP. SO THEY HAVING SOMEBODY HERE, UM IT ENSURES THAT IT GETS DONE QUICKLY, BUT AND MORE CONTROL SOLUTIONS HAS ASSURED US THAT THERE WILL BE SOMEBODY WHO CAN RESPOND. UM QUICKLY. IF YOU HAVE COMMENTS. AND THE OTHER COMMENT WAS REALLY ABOUT THE COVID VACCINE. SO, YOU KNOW, UM THEY ARE GETTING COMMERCIALIZED. THE GOAL IS TO SEND EVERYBODY WOULD HELP HEALTH INSURANCE TO THEIR PROVIDER OR THEIR LOCAL PHARMACY. I BELIEVE , UM, PHARMACIES AND PROVIDERS

[00:15:02]

PEOPLE, BUT WE WOULDN'T BE PERMITTED TO PROVIDE THESE VACCINES TO PEOPLE WITH INSURANCE. SO WE'RE TRYING TO PARTNER WITH OTHER PROVIDERS. AH IN THE AREA, OR EVEN IF THERE IS A STRONG DEMAND PARTNER WITH SOME LOCAL PHARMACIES IF THEY HAVE EVERYTHING IN PLACE, UM THEN I KNOW DR FAISAL BEES. WE SENT AN EMAIL TO TRY TO SEE IF WE SHOULD SIGN UP TO BE A 317 PROVIDERS THAT WE CAN GET ACCESS FOR. UM, FOR THE UNINSURED. YEAH I THINK THAT'S THE ONLY OPTION.

WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO, RIGHT? I THINK IT'S FAIR. YOU KNOW, THEY'RE VERY EXPENSIVE. HMM. AND I THINK THAT THERE'S ALSO SOMETHING THAT THE COUNTY HEALTH DEPARTMENTS ARE STRUGGLING WITH, BECAUSE EVEN WITH THE MONEY THEY HAVE, IF THEY WERE TO PURCHASE VACCINES, I THINK THEY'RE LUCKY.

IF THEY CAN, THEY CAN GET A COUPLE 1000. SO THE GOAL FROM THE HEALTH DEPARTMENT SIDE IS GOING TO BE REALLY TO OBTAIN VACCINES FOR THE UNINSURED. NONE OF US ARE HAVE THE ABILITY TO VERIFY INSURANCE STATUS AND UM, BILL INSURANCE COMPANIES. I THINK MOST OF THE HEALTH DEPARTMENTS ARE NOT ABLE TO DO THAT. SO WE'LL HAVE TO RELY ON THE PROVIDERS AND THE PHARMACIES TO PROVIDE AND, UM VACCINES TO THE TWO PEOPLE WITH INSURANCE. NOTHING. THAT'S IT. YOU HAVE WITH YOUR COMMENTS. YEAH MAINLY, IT WAS REALLY JUST THE FEES. MAINLY JUSTICE. YEAH. 7 51. NO.

[VIII. New Business]

THAT'S SOMETHING THAT WE CAN DEFINITELY LOOK INTO. TO PROVIDE, NOT CAN. THE GOAL IS TO USE THE MONEY APPROPRIATELY AND SOMEBODY WHO NEEDS HELP. WHY NOT HELP THEM, RIGHT? DO YOU HAVE A PLAN IN PLACE TO FIND OUT WHERE THEIR NEEDS ARE? AND SO WE WANT TO DO A AN ASSESSMENT. OKAY WE WANT TO TRY TO FIND THE RIGHT VENDOR OR COMPANY TO HELP US WITH THAT. SO THAT IS ONE OF THE THINGS ASSESSMENT FOR THE TOWN IN GENERAL. THIS JUST SEE WHAT THE NEEDS ARE AN ASSESSMENT OF INDIVIDUAL CITIZENS TO SEE IF THEY HAVE A PROBLEM. BOTH OF YOU KNOW, WE REALLY WANT TO DO A FORMAL ASSESSMENT AS POSSIBLE WITH THE SCHOOL. THROUGH THE SCHOOL DISTRICT AND THEN ALSO

[00:20:05]

WITHOUT A FLOOR SPEECH. YEAH. I THINK IF IT'S IMPORTANT, WE HAVE TO TALK TO THIS SCHOOL, THE SUPERINTENDENT, THE BOARD AND YOU KNOW? GET APPROVAL FOR IT. I DON'T THINK I HAVE A PROBLEM WITH PREVENTION. THAT'S WHAT THEY'RE JAM IS JEREMY. HOW IS THIS OPIOID THING FITS INTO THE YOUR CONCERNS? I'M JUST CURIOUS. WHAT WERE YOU THINKING? YOU KNOW WHETHER WE'RE WHERE THERE'S SOMETHING NEW. THERE IS RESISTANCE. YEAH SO IN ADDITION . TO CURRICULUM THAT'S ALREADY MISUNDERSTOOD. AND. THEN THEY'RE GOING TO SEE SOMETHING ELSE THAT THEY MAY NOT AGREE WITH. AND THEN IT BECOMES A CIRCLES AND I DON'T KNOW IF YOU HAVE SEEN THE SCHOOL BOARD MEETINGS YET RECENTLY, BUT IT'S CHALLENGING. TO SAY THE LEAST. I DIDN'T. NO MATTER HOW WELL INTENTIONED IT IS, IT MAY BE SEEN AS SOME OTHER SORT OF INTRUSION ON PARENTAL RIGHTS TO YOU KNOW, MAYBE SOMEONE WAS LIKE THAT. I DON'T WANT MY KIDS TO LEARN ABOUT OPIOIDS BECAUSE YOU'RE GOING TO TEACH THEM HOW TO THINK HOW TO LIKE, SHOOT OUT. YEAH TELLING THEM THAT IT EXISTS YOUR FORCING THEM INTO DOING SOMETHING IS THE IT'S FEELING ACROSS THE BOARD. MARIJUANA EXIST, RIGHT TEACHING MY KIDS MARIJUANA. THAT'S SORT OF THE DELETE THAT GET IS GETTING MADE IN THE CURRICULUM.

SO YOU KNOW, IF YOU THINK IT'S VOLUNTEER, DO YOU THINK IT'S GONNA WORK, BUT THEN? SO I DON'T THINK WE COULD IN AS AN EXAMPLE WITH LIKE. WITH THE CURRICULUM. DO YOU MIND IF I JUST SAY ONE THING? REALLY? I WAS JUST GOING TO SAY THAT THE BOARD OF ED DOESN'T APPROVE THE CURRICULUM THEY CAN ENTERTAIN, BUT THEY COULDN'T SO WE CAN RECOMMEND TO THE TO THE HIGH SCHOOL SUPERINTENDENT OR THE WERE PRINCIPLE THAT WE BELIEVE THAT THIS CURRICULUM SHOULD BE INVESTIGATED. WE CAN'T WE'RE NEVER GOING TO BE ABLE TO MONITOR AND INFLUENCE WHETHER OR NOT PEOPLE COMPLAIN. I THINK THEY'RE GOING TO COMPLAIN. I THINK THEY'VE SHOWN US ENOUGH THAT IF THEY HAVE A CONCERN, THEY WILL COME TO THE BOARD OF CONCERN AND EVEN MENTIONED THIS IS THAT THESE GRANTS ARE TIME LIMITED. SO TO WASTE TIME ON SOMETHING THAT IS THAT, OKAY.

FAILED MISSION TO START WITH DOESN'T SEEM TO BE A GOOD ALLOCATION OF TIME. GOT IT IF THE RESOURCE IS NEVER GOING TO BE UTILIZED BECAUSE OF INFIGHTING, SO TO MAKE WHY START YOU KNOW, 10 STEPS BACK. SO I JUST I THINK IT'S AFTER SCHOOL ACTIVITIES. I THINK THE CURRICULUM IS SET AND EVEN TRYING TO CHANGE LIKE I WAS TRYING TO GET UM, FROM MY SCHOOL START TIME. PLATFORM I WAS TRYING TO GET EDUCATION ABOUT THE IMPORTANCE OF SLEEP INTO THE CURRICULUM. AND THEY MET WITH THE PEOPLE AT THE NEW JERSEY DEPARTMENT OF ED, AND THEY'RE STARTING A 1 TO 2 YEAR TIME PERIOD TO FIGURE OUT HOW TO MAKE DECISIONS ABOUT WHAT WILL GO IN THE CURRICULUM. SO THAT'S PRETTY SUCKS. SO UM, BUT I THINK WHAT WE CAN DO AND 33 JUNE 3RD. WE

[00:25:06]

YEAH. STOP WELL. AND ALSO THAT SOME OF THE SOME OF THE OPT OUT FORMS SPECIFIC THAT ARE FLOATING AROUND OUT THERE SPECIFICALLY SAY MY CHILD CANNOT BE WILL NOT RESPOND TO ANY SURVEY. YES.

BECAUSE. WELL, I DON'T KNOW WHY. BECAUSE I HAVE SOME EVIL, ULTERIOR MOTIVE AND DOING YOUR SERVICE. SO YEAH. GOOD POINT. GOOD. HOW MUCH MONEY HOW MUCH MONEY IS IT? WE HAVE ABOUT $30,000 FROM JUST FOR OPIOID SETTLEMENT AND THE EXPECT MORE. NOT SURE. MHM. MAYBE OTHER SMALL COMMITTEE OF THE HEALTH BOARD SHOULD SIT TOGETHER AND COME UP WITH THE NIGHTLY OUT OUT THAT SHOULD BE USED OR THE ENTIRE HEALTH BOARD CONSIDERED. FIGURE IT OUT. GO HOME FOR EVERYBODY.

THAT'S THAT'S MAYBE. MAYBE LIKE AN IDEA. YEAH I CAN PRESENT A PLAN. I WAS GOING TO SAY NEXT TIME. WHY DON'T NEXT TIME YOU COME AND TELL US LIKE MORE ABOUT THE OVERALL NUMBER OF FUNDS.

WHAT UM, THEY CAN BE USED FOR TRYING TO REMEMBER THE OTHER QUESTIONS THAT WE HAD. POTENTIAL OUTREACH PLAN. AND WHEN DOES IT RUN OUT? THANK YOU. THAT WAS THE OTHER QUESTION. IS THAT SOUND OKAY? OKAY, COOL. YEAH, AND CAN IT BE BEEN USED? CAN IT BE USED FOR MENTAL HEALTH BECAUSE IT'S OPIOIDS. AH SO WE COULD HAVE SOME LARGE EVENTS. COULD BE USED TO PAY. FOR SERVICES LIKE FOR PEOPLE WHO CAN'T AFFORD THERAPY BECAUSE THAT'S A GOOD AGAIN. CAN BE USED BRILLIANT. THAT'S BRILLIANT. I TELL YOU IT'S A LOT OF PEOPLE CAN'T A LOT OF PEOPLE CAN'T. YEAH WELL, SO IS THAT YES, YOU CAN BRING A PLANE. THAT'S AWESOME. SO WHEN YOU PUT THAT PLAN TOGETHER, MAYBE IF YOU CAN PUT THAT PART AS WELL, I THINK THAT'S SUCH A GREAT SERVICE TO THE COMMUNITY, BECAUSE THAT'S ONE OF THE ISSUES THAT PEOPLE THAT IT JUST GETS WET, EXPENSIVE. AND MAYBE IN THE MEANTIME, YOU CAN TALK TO DR MOHAN ABOUT WHAT SHE'S SEEING. NOT SORRY, DOCTOR AMARA ABOUT WHAT SHE'S SEEING THROUGH AMS. I KNOW THEY HAD A LOT OF DATA ON THAT. REMEMBER FROM THAT MIGHT BE HELPFUL TO THAT'S A GOOD IDEA. OKAY LOOK AT THAT. EIGHT O'CLOCK ALREADY. YEAH THEY'RE

[00:30:03]

N. J S A SPORTS AUTHORITY. THERE IS GOING TO BE A PROGRAM CALLED THE NICE THEY'RE GOING TO BE ROLLING OUT, WHICH IS GOING TO BE A MANDATE FOR ALL CUT OFF. HIGH SCHOOL SPORTS COACHES TRAINING. IT'S A 20 MINUTE TRAINING AND THE REAL ISSUE IS IT'S TRAINING THEM TO SAY IT'S OKAY TO IT'S OKAY TO NOTICE AND INJECT YOURSELF INTO SOMEONE AND SAY, HEY, YOU LOOK LIKE YOU NEED TO TALK OR YOU LOOK LIKE SOMETHING'S CHANGED. AND TO INITIATE THE CONVERSATION. BUT.

MY WORRY ABOUT ALL OF THIS IS THEY DO THAT, AND THEY HAVE NOWHERE TO MOVE THEM TO THE NEXT STEP. THAT'S RIGHT. THERE'S NO SUPPORT IS SOMEONE WHO'S THERE BECAUSE WHAT THE COUNSELORS CAN DO AT THE SCHOOL. THE SCHOOL COUNSELORS ARE INVOLVED IN ADMINISTRATIVE THINGS. THEY CAN'T DO THAT. BUT IF THERE WAS SOMEBODY WITH THIS GRANT, WHO WAS THERE AT THE SCHOOL, SO THERE WAS SOMEONE TO SAY, HEY, NOT ONGOING THERAPY, BUT WE'RE GOING TO MEET A COUPLE OF TIMES MAY JUST GET A LITTLE BIT BETTER FOR SENSE. AND THEN I'LL TRIAGE YOU OUT OR GIVE YOU SOME TOOLS THAT MIGHT BRIDGE SOME GAPS. I THINK THIS THIS IS WONDERFUL. AND WHEN DID YOU SAY THIS WAS GETTING ROLLED UP? SEPTEMBER? I THINK IT MIGHT BE A SURPRISE TO THEM. BUT SOON I WOULD LOVE AS A TOWNSHIP TO THEN, MAYBE DO NEXT YEAR. SOME INITIATIVE WITHIN THE TOWNSHIP. JUST HAVING BEEN NICE ALL OVER LIKE WE DO THOSE SIGNS DIVINE AND, YEAH, I THINK IT'S SUCH A BRILLIANT IDEA. JUST WE ALL NEED TO BE NICE. SO MAYBE IN ADDITION, SORRY. I'M ADDING THINGS TO YOUR PLAN CONDITION, MAYBE IDENTIFY ONE OR TWO. THEY WHAT I'M HEARING HERE IS A COUPLE OF PILOTS THAT WE CAN PUT IN PLACE. UM, AND THEN WE CAN TALK ABOUT WHICH ONE PERFECT. NO WHERE WE WANT TO DO MORE PROGRAMMING, SO I THINK THIS IS A GREAT MEETING. YOU MUST BE SOME SOMETHING IN THE AIR TONIGHT. YES THANK YOU GUYS, ARE YOU'RE ON FIRE. YES, THAT TOO. RIGHT? THE ONLY OTHER THING.

EIGHT OF SEVEN THAT WE CAN MOVE TO HIS NEW BUT NEW BUSINESS. NOBODY THEM ANY NEW BUSINESS. I DON'T KNOW THAT THIS IS NEW, BUT I DID WANT TO TELL THE BOARD ABOUT TWO THINGS I WANT TO TELL THE BOARD. ABOUT ONE IS THAT, UM NINA HAS BEEN SPONSORING MEETINGS IN SAFETY. WHY DON'T

[00:35:07]

AND A LOT OF PEOPLE ACTUALLY REACHED OUT TO SAY THAT WHEN THEY'RE DRIVING ON TOUR, 60 CAN SEE PEOPLE RUNNING ACROSS OR SOMEONE ON A WHEELCHAIR GOING ACROSS. AND WHAT WERE WE DOING TO HELP THEM? SO WE ENDED UP DOING A FEW MEETINGS WE TABLED. WE TRIED TO MAKE SURE THAT WE TALKED TO THE RESIDENTS. WE TALKED TO SOME OF THE YOUNG PEOPLE, AND THEY SAID, YEAH, WE GET STARBUCKS AND THEN WE JUST GO ACROSS. WE TRY TO EXPLAIN THIS. THERE'S A CROSSWALK, BUT YOU KNOW, SO THIS EFFORT WAS GOING ON. AND IN THAT MEETING, WE ENDED UP DOING ONE AT CROSSINGS, WHICH IS ONE OF OUR BUILDINGS WHERE WE HAVE A LOT OF RESIDENTS, SO THERE WERE A LOT OF PEOPLE THERE ARE WHEELCHAIR BOUND, AND THEY HAD DEFINITELY CONCERNS AND I'LL LET AND CLEARLY THAT DID WE GET SOME, AND WE'RE TRYING TO FIND OUT HOW THEY CAN HAVE MORE TRANSPORTATION SO THEY DON'T HAVE TO TAKE THEIR WHEELCHAIR. THERE'S ACTUALLY A LADY WITH A YOUNG SON. SO SHE SITS ON THE WHEELCHAIR. SHE PUTS HER SON ON HER LAB, AND THEN SHE JUST GOES ON THE SIDEWALKS AND MAYBE EVEN ON 5 18 5 18 INSIDE OF 5 18 SO THAT FOR A TOWN THAT'S REALLY CONCERNING THAT WE CAN'T PROVIDE THAT KIND OF A RESOURCE THAT SHE CAN GET TO SHOP, RIGHT? WITHOUT HAVING TO PUT HER LIFE IN DANGER. HER CHILD'S LIFE IN DANGER, SO YOU KNOW THAT'S WHAT YEAH, THAT COUNTY UM LIKE VAN PROGRAM WAS SHUT DOWN FOR AWHILE . HMM IS, UM TO THE JESUS.

THEY'RE STILL HAVING TROUBLE GETTING THAT BACK UP AND RUNNING. I THINK THAT THEM BEING A PHOTOGRAPH ALLEVIATE. SOME OF THESE PARTICULAR ISSUES. I DON'T KNOW IF IT'S JUST FOR ELDER.

YEAH I THINK EXIST DID THE PROBLEM IS I THINK THEY'RE MEDICARE AND OTHER STUFF DOESN'T COVER. THIS AND THE COUNTY CAN ONLY PROVIDE A CERTAIN WAY OF DOING IT. SO I AM REACHING OUT TO THE COUNTY. BUT IF AS A HEALTH BOARD THERE ARE IDEAS, HOW WE CAN HELP THESE RESIDENTS WOULD BE GREAT, BUT IT'S AWFUL. SIGN UP. SIGN UP, CROSS THE CROSSWALK. THAT'S THAT'S WHAT WE'VE BEEN DOING. WE'VE BEEN OUT THERE WITH SIGNS AND I HAVE THE YOUTH ACTION BOARD WITH ME, AND WE HAVE ALL OF THESE KIDS OUT THERE MAKING A DIFFERENCE, BUT AREN'T THEY GOING TO BE ABLE TO GET FROM THE HOUSING TO THE MALLS LIKE WHEN WILL THAT HAPPEN ? LOOKS LIKE THERE'S A ROAD THAT'S GOING TO BE PUTTING THE ROAD IN. THE TOWNSHIP WAS PROMISED THAT THIS WOULD HAPPEN.

I THINK IT'S BEEN ALMOST DELAYED ANOTHER MONTH, IT JUST YEAH, BUT EVEN IF THEY DO DO THAT IT'S NOT. THE WHOLE PROBLEM IS NOT GOING TO SOLVE THE PROBLEM BECAUSE THAT ROLE IS KIND OF STEEP. YES IT COME IN A WHEELCHAIR THAT STEEP THERE, LITERALLY GETTING TO TWO OR SIX AT A SPEED. WELL, THEY WON'T GET TWO SIXES AS FAR BACK, BUT THEY'LL GET PARKING LOT. IT'S VERY BIG SPEECH. THEY IT'S STEEP . ALMOST DO A ESPECIALLY, I HAVE TO SAY THAT I DIDN'T KNOW THAT WE HAD THIS ISSUE. YEAH THEY WITH THE WHEELCHAIR? NO THEY NEED A SPECIAL KIND OF THAT WHEELCHAIRS ELECTRIC WITH THAT LADY. THERE'S A FEW. THERE'S A FEW THAT ARE IN ELECTRIC WHEELCHAIRS. A LOT OF YOU THAT ARE IN MANUAL AS WELL. BUT THE SIDEWALKS THE WRONG SIDE, THE SIDEWALK THROUGH THE WRONG SIZE AS WELL. WHEN THEY WAS THERE ANY CONSIDERATION THIS AFTER THE FACT AND MAY NOT BE POSSIBLE TRUCKS ON THE ROAD, IS THERE ANY CONSIDERATION? BRIDGE? DOESN'T THAT? YEAH. GOING TO BE A LOT OF TRAFFIC, I WOULD SAY, POTENTIALLY WALKING ACROSS THAT ROAD. ONCE THAT PLACE IS FILLED WITH KIDS. I MEAN, IT IS THE SHOP RIGHT? THAT'S VERY TRUE.

BECAUSE ALREADY LOOK THE CVS BY PIPE RUNNERS LIKE OVERRUN WITH CHILDREN ALL THE TIME.

ABSOLUTELY WE WALKED THAT ADOLESCENTS SO IT WON'T SURPRISE ME. ONCE THAT IS CAPACITY TO SEE THE SAME THING OCCUR. IN THOSE SHOPPING CENTERS. WE ALREADY HAD A CHILD THAT GOT HIT GOING FROM THE DEVELOPMENT TOO PLIABLE ONTO ETHICS. YEAH SO WE DID WORK ON. WE WERE ACTUALLY WALKING INTO YESTERDAY TO FIGURE OUT WHAT WE WANT TO DO THERE AND SEEMS LIKE THIS SIDE BLOCK AND EVEN THE CROSSWALK IS NOT DONE WELL, SO THERE ARE SOME IDEAS THAT TONGUE . SHE WAS WILLING, BUT THE PROBLEM IS, IT'S A STATE ROLE, SO WE HAVE TO LISTEN TO THE STATE. 5 18 IS A COUNTY ROAD. SO WE'RE TRYING TO SIDE DID HAVE THIS OUR STATE REP THERE AND HE'S WORKING ON IT AND MY NEXT MEETING. I'M GOING TO MAKE SURE THE COUNTY COMES AND TALKS TO OUR PEOPLE AS WELL. SO THAT'S BEEN INVOLVED IN A DEVISED THE YOU HAVE TO GET APPROVED THE INFRASTRUCTURE THAT THEY'RE

[00:40:05]

YEAH YOURSELF SHUTTLE. YEAH BUT I THINK WE'LL GET TO THE COUNTY AND THEN YOU KNOW ANYTHING ELSE.

ANYBODY CAN SUGGEST. IF THERE'S ANY OTHER PROGRAMS WE ARE UNAWARE OF FOR THEM. SO OKAY.

AH UM AT LEAST IN THE GREATER PRINCIPLE AREA AND SHE IS REALLY EAGER AND INTERESTED TO VISIT LOCAL DEPARTMENTS OF HEALTH. AND SO WE THOUGHT IT WOULD BE. WE WERE WOULD LIKE THE BOARD OF HEALTH TO EXTEND AN INVITATION TO HER. BRING THAT FORWARD. I THINK AT THE NEXT MEETING, CAN WE DO THAT? UM, LIKE JUST FOR MEETING A LETTER FOR YOU ALL TO SEE AND THEN WE'LL I HOPE WE ALL CAN SIGN IT. SO WE'LL HAVE IT ALL SIGNS INVITE HER. SHE COMES TO MEETING AND THEN THERE'S WINE AND CHEESE.
