- I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America, and to the republic for which it stands,
- one nation, under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all. Our Heavenly Father, we come before
- you once again. We thank you for the school town we serve. We thank you for the volunteers we have.
- We thank you all for your blessing. You stole this little town and all the families represented here.
- We ask these things in Jesus' name. Amen. Let the roll call show that all members are present with the
- exception of Emily Kelley. Yes. Okay, review of accounts payable. I've looked through those. Serena
- is definitely in there.
- none of the things like that correct. Right. Thank you. This is something probably fall. They may come
- and get from Serena. The afternoon meeting and you can look through it and you have an idea what we
- spent things on. I have one more. Yeah. Entering a motion to approval accounts payable. I'll make a
- motion. Second. Do you have any journal? Yes.
- Laura Hill. Yes. Katie Michael. Yes. Ronnie VanEvander. Yes. All of it is Heritage Trail rental. I don't
- think we need those on, do we? I don't think so. Okay, if he's got a copy of the Heritage Trail rental
- form, now the council tonight, that the town council is going to consider removing where it says certificate
- of liability insurance,
- $100 minimum town of Alexville shall be listed in additional insured attached there is the agreement.
- They're wanting to take that off, correct? So is there anyone here that have any problem with taking
- that off? No problem. I think it will detour a lot of people because that deposit is hefty. So far no
- one has even inquired about it really. No, it's it's just too much too much to
- I guess to deal with the hassle. So as far as, I mean, what would be eligible for a claim if there's
- a deductible? There's just too many different steps. So I think I've decided to take that. We have had
- a lot of people rent it already. Really? Oh, yeah. I got five or six last week. So I co-approved yesterday
- for her little one's birthday.
- It had a little problem Saturday after the wedding was there. What was later on? Later was all around.
- So that was kind of a problem. But there's some things that are still in the works, I guess, with procedural
- type things. Yeah. I'd like to have it. It's the only thing that was of our approval for the
- board considering taking off the insurance. Well, then that's up here, right?
- Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes,
- yes, yes, yes, yes, yes,
- the committee to reopen the nation from the park. Okay. Let me see if I can get that out. We did a little
- bit of a dive into what's in Ellsville and what's in Richland Township. According to national park and
- recreation standards, we're setting pretty good. Just going to be a little short on the amount of trails.
- if the organization goes through. We did stick with a five-member park board, two being town of Ellsville,
- two being Richland Township, and one being appointed by the school board. Cemetery 17, in total, I believe
- in the township, only responsible for the ones that are abandoned and not on private property, so that
- would be two.
- and I think it's like $10,000 in budget for the upkeep of those two cemeteries. What else? We would
- like to see a master plan of the parks done. We talked about a five-year period that my pharmacy probably
- need to be done sooner in order for grants. So we do recommend a quick turn around and become a parks
- master plan if the reorganization goes through.
- Anything else that I'm missing, Jimmy? Did you divide the town, the township at large or did we do two
- for the town, two for the township? I don't remember if we recommended that or not. I don't agree there
- on that because that was something Jim Perry put together and I didn't have that chance to go through
- Enrique's report. I did listen to Cats the other night and
- I don't remember if there was an at-large on there. OK, with five, I just wondered how that would work.
- OK. So the board will have a representative from the main Boston School Corporation on? It has forever,
- yeah. Does it need to be looked at to add somebody for 7 Oaks? Since it's getting so big. That's a no.
- Well, I mean. But you didn't mean to cut change. So I mean, are we still even allowed to add to our
- reports? Now we can define a one of the four. Yeah, I don't think we are. Yeah. So. But could that be
- part of the master plan? I think whoever does the master plan, they recommended. Yeah.
- So is the master plan being done by Mike Farmer or? It's not being done by anybody right now. It's just
- a suggestion. Yeah, it's just a suggestion. I moved in like three different organizations to do parks
- or do parks and recreation master plan. Yeah, I just saw that Westfield is releasing their master plan.
- And I'm going to try to get a hold of that. I mean, we're not at Westfield, but as things are going
- the right way,
- Yeah. We get some more businesses or residential pickup. Yeah, especially with the two additions out
- on the west end of town. Well, along those same lines, the subcommittees are pretty well done meeting.
- Is that right, Paula? Yeah, that's right. And this meeting every Wednesday now through at least May,
- maybe into June. And once the total
- once it's agreed upon and send it to the state, then we can come, we don't put any information out there,
- that's my understanding. We stop all information right there. So then the Department of DLTF, whatever
- that is, they'll decide, do we do a good job, do we not? And we're pairing ourselves after Sheridan.
- Sheridan also has a master for hardware. Yeah, Sheridan has a township in there.
- a little smaller than we are, but they're still on the level that we are. So we feel like what they
- did don't probably suffice for us. And now I'd like to entertain a motion to invite Paula to be our
- secretary as Serena phases out. You'll help train her, right? She's interested and wants to be involved.
- As long as it's approved, I guess. The last I heard, I thought it had to be a member.
- of the board. Oh, really? I'm going to have to check. Two or three years. I know, but that was different
- for me. Because I'm an employee. But I will check, and we'll go forward with it. I'd like to go ahead
- and entertain a motion for that. Here's our motion. I'll make the motion. Second. Serena? Jimmy Durnall?
- Aye. Laura Hill? Yes.
- Katie Michael. Yes. Yes. Welcome aboard. Tell us a little about your background Paul. I know a little
- bit. Tell us about it. I actually have a degree in Parks and Rec. I've not used this since I've had
- it. I was at PhD for 23 years in their business office. I'm over at IU now at Indian Institute of Disability.
- Are you from around here? I'm from Fritschler. Fritschler, yeah, I like Fritschler. I've been in Monroe
- County since 1998 and Ellesville Price since 2000. Yeah. And I have your email, Jack. Yeah. OK. You
- can find it. Anybody else? We do need a motion to approve the expenditures. Oh, we didn't get that. No.
- I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
- I'm not sure. I'm not sure. I'm not sure. I'm not sure. I'm not sure. I'm not sure. I'm not sure.
- I just wanted to know if you guys got that information. But not from the county. We had stuff from Richland
- Township because the county will continue overseeing the parks as far as Flatwoods goes and the trails.
- Oh, okay. In Denver, yeah. Why was that brought up? Because
- I don't think it was very much, was it, Paula? What was that? I don't think it was very much. No, and
- I do not have budget for Richland. Right. I've got town of Ellis, though. But I do not have the other
- one for Richland. OK. We'll come up with that for next week. Anything else?
- What do you think? What do you think? Can you make a motion to adjourn the meeting? Say yes. I have
- to say what else we need. I entertain a motion to adjourn the meeting. I make motion. I second.
- Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes.
