A
A
A
A
Thank
you
very
much
before
we
go
to
the
public
forum.
Part
of
the
agenda
dennis
we've
had
differences
of
people's
opinion
on
what
the
rules
are
for
wearing
face,
masks
inside
of
a
municipal
building.
Could
you
please
explain
to
us
what
the
rules
are,
that
we
follow
and
are
generally
executive
orders
that
come
from
the
governor.
B
B
The
most
recent
executive
order,
I
should
say,
wear
masks
within
public
spaces,
publicly
accessible
spaces
and
government
buildings.
The
recent
executive
order
clarified
that
the
intent
was
that
that
should
include
any
hallways
and
parking
lots
or
grounds
associated
with
those
government
buildings,
but
the
executive
order
did
not
change
that
six
foot
requirement.
B
It
still
is
again.
If
you
can't
maintain
six
feet
of
separation,
then
yes,
you
have
to
wear
a
mask,
but,
as
you
can
see
tonight,
that's
one
reason
why
the
counselors
are
a
little
more
spread
out
tonight.
We
have
less
chairs
here
in
the
room
and,
and
those
that
are
not
able
to
maintain
six
feet-
are-
are
wearing
masks.
A
C
A
A
D
D
It
is
in
the
charter
that
we
have
to
come
to
council
and
have
this
voted
on.
So
that's.
Why
we're
here
tonight,
because
it
kind
of
slipped
a
little
bit.
We've
had
1935
requests
come
in
and
over
1600
ballots
back.
D
So
I
don't
know
what
else
you
want
to
know
or
want
to
hear
about
I'd
like
to
be
the
warden,
and
then
I
have
my
two
other
clerks
in
the
office
or
deputy
clerk
and
assistant
clerk
that
I'd
like
to
have
both
as
deputies
to
working
alongside
of
me.
A
So
the
motion
is
to
approve
an
eight
o'clock
opening
time
on
november
third
to
appoint
danielle
election
warden
susan,
the
deputy
election
warden
and
sherry.
The
deputy
election
warden
correct.
Is
that
how
you
would
like
to
see
that
done?
That
would
be
awesome.
Chair
will
entertain
a
motion,
so
moved
moved
by
you
seconded
by
doug
any
questions
or
comments.
A
F
B
A
E
D
So
october
31st
I've
got
three
teams
of
ballot
clerks
and
when
I
say
team,
it's
democrat
and
republican
and
two
sets
are
going
to
be
opening
ballots.
So
we
rip
open
the
envelopes
and
put
the
ballots
and
bins.
Then
another
team
takes
them
and
puts
them
in
the
machines.
D
D
A
Thank
you,
oh
did
you
have
something.
Thank
you.
I
went
and
voted
today
and
there
was
quite
a
line.
So
if
you're
in
the
public
and
you're
going
to
come
vote,
it's
a
little
late,
but
it
wasn't
more
than
20
minutes.
So
it
worked
out
very
well
and
you
did
a
good
job.
A
Okay.
Before
we
start
this
I'd
like
to
clear
up
something
that
happened
at
the
last
caribou
city
council
meeting,
we
had
a
gentleman
come
in
during
the
public
forum,
part
of
our
session
and
an
issue
approach
that
a
loved
one
within
his
family
had
to
be
transported
down
to
bangla,
had
to
be
transported
somewheres
for
medical
attention,
and
it
was
quite
a
lengthy
weight
at
the
hospital.
E
A
I
have
heard
of
these
issues
in
the
past
for
many
many
years
of
certain
people
having
to
wait
some
length
of
time
before
they
could
get
transferred,
but
this
particular
public
comment
made
reference
to
the
fact
that
it
had
might
have
had
something
to
do
with
budgetary
cuts
or
something
was
wrong
with
the
budget,
and
it
was
very
confusing
to
me
at
the
time
because
I
didn't
know
we
were
cutting
any
budgets
so
dennis.
A
A
A
A
G
So
I
prepared
this,
I
went
back
and
did
the
research
on
what
happened
in
this
instance,
so
I
typed
this
up.
So,
mr
marker
mayor
gone,
this
note
is
in
response
to
the
inquiry
from
the
council
and
the
events
surrounding
the
operations
on
the
night
of
october,
8th,
as
shown
as
shown
in
monthly
in
the
department
report.
The
dms
department
is
not
able
to
respond
to
every
transfer
call
we
receive.
G
G
The
priority
of
the
department
has
always
been
attention
to
emergency
services
for
our
citizens,
local
and
contract,
and,
secondly,
to
fit
in
the
extras
as
they
arise,
as
shown
in
our
numbers.
As
we
approach
nearly
nineteen
hundred
calls
to
date,
I
do
I
do
wish.
We
could
do
each
and
every
request
for
service
that
gets
called
in,
but
the
reality
is.
We
must
work
within
our
means.
G
G
A
A
A
H
The
hospital
calls
who
the
hospital
needs
a
transfer
and
they're
going
to
call
our
department
who
do
they?
Specifically,
they
just
call
the
department
in
general,.
H
H
G
G
C
F
F
So
so
here's
here's
the
heartburn
I
have
over
it.
We
had
a
citizen
come
in
and
I
can
only
imagine
if
that
happens,
to
a
family
member.
It's
pretty
stressful.
E
B
F
A
F
G
F
No
right
and
the
public
heard
one
one
side
of
the
story
and,
and
I
feel
like
he's
owed
and
the
public
is
owed
the
real
reason
that
it
doesn't
have
anything
to
do
with
dollars
being
stretched
or
dollars
being
broken.
I
E
H
H
H
G
G
Somebody
that
had
od
medication,
wise
that
might
be
four
to
five
days
upwards
of
20
to
30
days
before
you
can
get
out
of
the
er
and
get
transferred
to
or
placed
in
one
of
those
facilities,
because
remember
we
used
to
have
one
in
fort
that
went
away
fort
kent's
changed
their
standards
so
that
kind
of
went
away.
They
there's
not
enough
beds
for
these
patients
to
go
to
so
they
can
be
there
for
days
and
weeks
on
end.
A
Clarification
on
how
this
all
works
later
on
in
the
year,
because
maybe
it's
our
plan
of
work
that
needs
to
be
reviewed
and
how
do
you
keep
up
with
the
times?
Maybe
well,
we
just
need
to
look
look
at
it,
and
especially
in
letting
the
people
of
caribou
know.
A
This
is
how
this
works
and
because
that's
where
the
confusion
is
I
an
hour
probably
you
know,
a
minute
seems
like
an
hour
to
to
someone
in
this
kind
of
situation,
which
is
why
the
ems
and
fi
are
are
top-notch
people,
because
they
don't
panic
where
the
average
joe
is
frothing
it
so
to
speak,
because
he
has
a
loved
one.
There.
F
I'm
fine,
thank
you,
scott,
for
putting
that
together.
G
B
B
The
most
recent
inspection
by
traveler's
boiler
re,
which
is
in
your
packet,
indicated
that
there
were
significant
repairs
that
were
needed
needed
for
both
of
the
boilers
and
in
working
with
the
the
company
that
usually
does
those
repairs
for
us.
The
indication
was
that
they
stopped
making
those
boilers
10
years
ago,
and
the
parts
would
not
be
available.
E
B
Knowing
that
there
are
other
options
for
fuel,
we
asked
for
a
cost
estimate
on
propane
and
the
cost
came
back
for
that
at
thirty
five
thousand
seven
hundred
dollars,
but
again
being
able
to
put
that
into
the
back
room.
Take
the
old
wood
pellet
boiler
out,
as
well
as
to
dispose
of
the
old
boilers
down
in
the
basement.
B
B
The
issue
that
we
see
is
the
fire
station.
Reconstruction
is
going
to
span
two
budget
years
and
we
have
the
ability
to
allocate
some
additional
funds
that
way,
whereas
this
project
needs
to
be
done.
This
year,
and
so
this
allows
us
to
use
available,
reserve
funds
now,
where
we
have
them
and
be
able
to
plan
for
any
additional
funds
with
the
other
project
in
next
year's
budget
and
so
resolution
1001
basically
outlines
that
the
caribou
city
council
approves
the
transfer
of
unencumbered
60
access.
B
C
F
B
B
Okay,
we
are
not
awarded
a
specific
thing,
so
I
mean
one
of
the
things
that
we
talked
about
with.
Another
company
was
maybe
keeping
one
of
the
fuel
oil
or
the
heating
oil
boilers
downstairs
that
can
still
limp
along
as
much
as
it
can,
but
put
something
else
down
next
to
it.
So
we
are
still
looking
at
options.
F
Okay,
just
for
the
record,
I'm
okay
with
moving
the
money
to
have
it
ready
to
to
pick
an
option,
but
as
this
council
and
many
councils
before
have
said,
I
I
just
don't
get
the
sense.
We've
exhausted
all
the
options
with
making
these
pellet
systems
work.
There
hasn't
really
been
a
comprehensive
plan
on
on
the
part
of
the
city.
F
F
With
like
a
maintenance
contract
that
they
can
come
in
and
service,
not
just
those
but
all
the
other
boilers,
and
and
tell
us
at
the
beginning
of
every
fall,
you're
gonna
burn
oil
or
you're
gonna
burn
pellets
and
either
way,
you're
okay,
because
we've
serviced
it
and
it's
ready
to
go
and
there's
companies.
That
will
do
that
and
I
I
don't
know
why
we
haven't
done
that,
especially
for
something
that
we're
still
paying
for
so
I'm,
okay
with
moving
the
money
around.
F
I
just
I
would
not
be
for
removing
those
pellet
boilers
until
either
a
that
that
note
is
paid
off
or
we
figure
out
how
to
maximize
their
their
benefit.
B
H
I
would
agree
with
you
on
that.
I
think
that
I
have
no
problem
getting
money
moved
over
there,
I'd
like
to
see
something
done,
taxpayers
are
paying
an
awful
price
for
those
things
sitting
in
the
supposed
to
be
running
and
and
to
just
drop
it
and
run
in
a
different
direction.
Right
now,
I
I
couldn't
go
for
that
until
we
see
what
the
motherboard's
in
it
and
have
a
plan,
somebody's
gonna-
obviously
I
don't
know
was
it
that
they
didn't
get
cleaned
out.
H
A
I
can't
remember
exactly,
but
I
read
somewheres
quite
some
time
ago:
that's
a
comp.
They,
the
city,
did
hire
a
company
come
up
here
and
tell
us
what
it
was
going
to
take
to
get
these
things
operational
and
it
had
something
to
do
with.
Some
of
them
were
even
installed
wrong
due
to
elevations
and
stuff
like
that,
and
they
had
to
fix
stuff,
but
they
gave
price
tags
on
how
to
fix
it.
A
C
I
think
if
you
would
ask
chief
soucy
to
come
up,
he
can
talk
to
you
about
this,
because
this
has
been
going
on
for
some
time.
I
believe
they
were
deemed
unsafe.
So
I
think
he's
got
a
lot
of
information
on
this.
G
G
It
got
installed
since
the
day
they
put
them
in
yes,
sir
one
night
I
spent
every
two
hours
coming
in
to
hand
fill
the
hopper
to
to
get
it
to
to
feed,
and
then
one
night
I
had
to
come
in
because
it
went
out,
but
it
had
caught
fire.
The
the
tube
that
feeds
the
boiler
portion
of
it
had
caught
fire
it
never
ever
from
day
one
ran
consecutively
and
they
did
a
bunch
of
things
to
ours.
G
Too
much
powder
and
it
was
causing
the
augers
to
back
up,
so
they
got
rid
of
that
and
they
put
in
an
agra
feed,
curled
auger
that
goes
in
and
feeds
it
that
that
never
worked
properly.
So
we
were,
we
were
hand,
pushing
that
to
to
fill
up
the
hopper
and
the
machine
itself
to
to
do
that,
and
then
it
wouldn't
burn
consecutively.
G
I've
got
a
whole
line
of
burnt
out
elements
in
in
our
in
our
back
boiler
room
that
just
kept
burning
themselves
out,
and
I
don't
know
if
it
was
how
it's
the
machines
manufactured,
I'm
not
sure
they
were.
They
were
constantly
burning
themselves
out,
but
the
most
I
ever
got
out
of
it
was
was.
The
longest
stretch
was
two
working
days.
G
B
B
E
E
F
C
A
B
Councillors
we
we
tried
to
load
this
agenda
up
with
what
we
would
consider
more
minor
departments,
and
so
it's
not
to
say
I
couldn't
spend
an
hour
on
each
of
them,
but
I'll
try
not
to,
and
the
the
municipal
building
fund
fund
18
is
primarily
the
utilities
and
maintenance
of
city
hall
and
the
the
bottom
line
on
this
one
we
do
show.
I
should
before
I
get
to
the
bottom
line.
B
Staying
the
same,
there
is
some
additional
repairing
of
flat
work,
miscellaneous
heat
and
internal
systems
that
we
want
to
look
at
in
this
building,
particularly
the
the
heating
system.
Here
is
such
that
the
police
department
make
sure
that
the
heat
turns
on
so
that
the
third
floor
has
enough
heat
and
what
ends
up
happening
because
of
the
internal
system
and
the
valves
that
we
have,
the
the
police
department
gets
an
additional
interrogation
technique
automatically
with
the
extra
heat
in
some
of
their
rooms.
B
B
B
We
had
that
in
the
2020
budget.
Didn't
do
that
work
just
yet,
and
so
there
is
a
little
bit
of
funding
still
in
the
building
maintenance
reserve
line.
For
that
we
also
anticipate
needing
to
do
some
exterior
painting
on
the
building
we're
getting
quite
a
bit
of
crack
and
flaking
occurring
in
different
places,
and
so
we'd
like
to
get
the
those
parts
painted
that
have
been
such
in
the
past.
B
You'll
see
here.
Fifteen
thousand
dollars,
which
is
toward
the
nylander
sprinkler
system,
the
nylander
board
itself
or
the
nylander
building,
does
not
have
a
separate
capital
fund.
We
roll
that
into
this
municipal
building
capital
fund,
and
so
that's
it's
represented
here
and
not
in
a
separate
line.
B
B
We
have
traditionally
set
aside
twenty
five
thousand
dollars
for
general
parking
lot
resurfacing
and
we
try
to
do
that
every
year
and
then,
as
parking
lots
come
up.
We
use
those
funds
to
to
redo
that
the
criterium
brown
indicates
that
the
roof
on
city
hall.
We
have
a
membrane
system
here
that
that
will
need
to
be
repaired
in
2022
estimated
at
roughly
50
000.
B
So
right
now
we're
again
trying
to
smooth
the
the
capital
expenses
by
putting
some
of
that
cost
into
2021
the
same
with
the
upgrading
of
the
entrance
stairways
and
accessibility
standards
that
we
have
again
some
of
these
things.
As
we
look
at
them,
some
of
them
may
not
be
required
by
the
americans
with
disabilities
act.
B
Some
of
them
are
more
nice
to
haves,
and
so
we'll
look
more
closely
at
what's
being
recommended
there,
and
some
of
it
may
just
be
some
additional
guard
rails
or
looking
more
closely
at
some
of
the
slopes
that
we
have
in
the
buildings
are
approaching
the
buildings
criterion.
Brown
also
recommended
that
we
begin
putting
money
aside
for
replacing
of
the
heat
bumps
in
the
building
we
have.
B
I
know
we've
got
two
in
the
on
the
main
floor
for
housing,
fss
and
I'm
sorry
three
for
tony's
office,
and
so
we
got
we
got
four
okay
and
then
in
the
police
department.
They
also
have
a
handful
as
well,
so
we're
just
looking
into
the
future
as
to
being
able
to
go
in
still
doing
yearly
maintenance
on
those
but
eventually
needing
to
replace
those.
And
so
that's
four
thousand
dollars
of
an
allowance
for
beginning
to
re
again
put
that
money
aside
to
replace
those
when
the
time
comes.

B
B
A
portion
of
their
salaries
is
paid
out
of
this
fund
for
the
city
clerk
25
of
her
salary
comes
out
of
here
and
15
percent
of
sue
schedule.
Salaries
come
out
of
here
and
the
the
increase
that
you
see
to
the
salary
line
is
in
part
with
again
the
53
weeks
assumed
one
percent
increase
for
the
staff,
but
also
the
the
wage
differences
between
the
staff
this
year
and
last
year.
B
So
that
is
an
eight
percent
increase
on
that
line
offset
significantly
by
the
health
insurance
line
number
18..
B
This
is
a
a
staff
preference
dependent
line
and
the
the
health
insurance
preferences
for
the
staff
involved
was
significantly
different
than
last
year,
and
so
you'll
see
a
significant
reduction
there
of
almost
six
thousand
dollars
on
on
health
insurance
cost
for
that
line.
B
A
B
A
I
think
it
does
a
lot
of
good
has
the
potential
to
help
people
out
if
they
want
to
seek
out
help
seek
out
guidance
as
different
options
that
they
have
available.
I
know
we're
talking
about
the
trailer
park
a
little
bit
and
everybody
is
more
than
welcome
to
come
in
and
ask
for
assistance
in
some
format
or
another,
and
it's
a
good
little
source.
B
E
B
B
Jumping
down
to
that,
on
the
slide,
the
the
three-year
average
of
power
expense
between
2017
and
19
was
almost
104
thousand
dollars.
Just
that's
just
for
the
power
for
the
street
lights.
In
2019,
we
went
through
the
process
of
converting
or
starting
to
convert
those
over
to
led
and
owning
the
street
lights
ourselves.
B
B
We
don't
anticipate
a
lot
of
maintenance
at
this
point.
This
led
street
lights
have
a
10
year,
warranty
on
them
and
we're
still
also
within
the
one
year,
installation
warranty,
and
so,
if,
if
people
are
out
and
about-
and
they
see
that
a
street
light
is
black
at
this
point,
please
let
us
know
immediately,
so
we
can
make
note
of
that
and
and
get
the
crews
out
to
look
at
those
lights.
B
It
was
anticipated
when
we
were
doing
the
led
street
light
project
that
I
should
say
the
funds
that
we
used
for
that
project
were
one-time
funds
that
we
had
from
the
consolidation
of
aroostook
waste
or
into
aroostook
way
solutions
or
the
tri-community
landfill
with
presque
isle
and
the
city
received
some
one-time
funds.
As
part
of
that
consolidation
process.
B
It
was
discussed
in
the
past
that
the
cost
savings
that
we
see
here
in
the
power
line,
the
savings
that
we
see
there
would
be,
in
a
sense
expensed
back
to
refunding
the
one-time
funds
if
possible,
and
so
we
have
the
maintenance
line
which,
right
now
it
doesn't
have
all
of
the
the
savings
incorporated
in
that
maintenance
line.
Really.
F
Go
ahead,
if,
if
I
could
just
make
a
suggestion,
anybody
can
make
make
a
different
one,
but
let's
just
say
if
the
three
year
average
is
105
000
right
and
your
your
average
moving
forward
is
about
30
000.,
with
a
difference
of
70
75
000
that
we
take
a
portion
of
that
towards
paying
paying
ourselves
back
and
a
portion
of
that
towards
adding.
F
I
think
there
was
a
period
of
time
here
in
caribou,
where
there
were
street
lights
being
turned
off
every
year,
and
it's
left
just
some
horrendous
dark
spots,
all
over
neighborhoods
all
over
town,
and
I
think
it
was
counselor
terrio's
suggestion
last
year,
the
year
before
to
put
a
light
at
the
end
of
the
river
road.
C
I
F
B
B
But
yes,
this
this
twenty
thousand
dollars
for
maintenance.
Like
I
said
we've,
we
anticipated
using
some
of
that
this
year
for
new
lights
in
even
some
in-town
intersections
that
are
very
dark,
but
if
we
were
to
add
another,
fifty
thousand
dollars
to
round
that
out
to
the
seventy
that
that
would
certainly
help
put
us
back
towards
replenishing
those
one-time
funds.
B
The
there's
only
one
contractor
in
town
that
is,
has
all
the
licenses
necessary
to
be
on
the
power
poles
for
street
lights
and
they've
they've
been
very
busy,
and
so
I
received
that
quote
today
for
five
new
and
it's
I
haven't
even
looked
at
it
yet,
but
so
we
are
in
the
process
of
of
adding
new
lights,
where
we
can
I've.
B
F
B
I
think
there
was
three
three
more
urban
and
two
that
were
in
the
rural
areas.
J
B
So
that's
the
street
lights,
the
fun
38
line,
106.01
is
our
fire
hydrant
fees
and
right
now,
we've
we've
just
put
an
assumed
two
percent
increase
on
that
we're
waiting
for
a
final
number
from
cud
on
on
what
that
number
would
be
for
next
year.
B
I
I
We
have
been
working
with
the
rsu
and
the
wellness
center.
We,
as
we
all
know
our
wellness
center,
is
now
our
disaster
center
for
certified
with
the
red
cross
and
we're
working
with
the
rsu
to
because
there's
no
kitchen
in
the
wellness
center
that
they
will
furnish
the
meals.
If
we
have
to
ever
use
it
normally,
you
would
use
it
in
the
winter
time
in
case
of
storms.
C
B
For
those
in
the
public,
the
the
fund
proposal
is
to
be
essentially
flat.
Zero
percent
there's
looks
like
there's
about
a
13
increase
over
last
year,
so
essentially
flat
on
the
on
that
fund
on
fund
70
is
our
insurance
and
retirements.
B
A
B
B
B
It
looks
like
we
may
not
need
that
thirty
two
hundred
dollars
this
year,
but
we
may
need
that
for
next
year's.
This
is
a
we
have
our
regular
city,
audit
of
all
the
departments.
This
is
above
and
beyond
that
to
meet
government
requirements,
and
so
I
didn't
talk
with
the
finance
director.
B
B
This
is
our
in
a
sense
one
of
our
own
insurance
lines.
This
is
if
we
have
an
accident
and
we
have
to
pay
a
thousand
dollar
deductible.
We
we
have
that
three
thousand
dollars
there.
In
case
we
have
three
accidents
in
the
year,
the
first
year
that
I
was
here
in
2017
we
had
to.
Of
course
we
had
an
ambulance
that
was
wrecked.
We
had
a
an
employee
whose
leg
was
almost
taken
off.
B
B
B
The
the
current
liability
for
uncompensated
absences
is
well
over
well
over
two
hundred
thousand
dollars,
but
we're
not
carrying
that
amount
of
coverage
on
the
books.
We're
kind
of
just
limping
along
hoping
that
not
everybody
leaves
the
city
at
the
same
time
and
have
to
pay
that
out
in
one
lump
sum.
A
Well,
yeah,
I
got
a
question
compensated.
B
A
A
You
know
what
that
doesn't
get
put
I
mean:
is
there
a
way
that
it
gets
diverted.
B
E
E
A
Should
every
department
have
its
own
line,
then,
for
this
kind
of
thing,
or
is
this
just
the
way
we
do
it?
I
mean.
I
know
this
is
the
way
we
do
it,
but
I
mean
if
we
want
to
know
what
true
costs
are
for
each
department,
two
hundred
thousand
a
little
over
two
hundred
thousand
dollars
of
liabilities,
a
nice
chunk
of
change.
E
J
J
J
B
B
E
B
A
To
go
along
with
counselor
jody's
suggestion
I
I
would
just
assume
from
a
layman's
point
of
term
if
we
have
a
liability
of
just
pick,
a
number
200
000
for
retirement,
there
ought
to
be
an
account
somewhere,
so
it
has
200
000
in
it
and
then,
if
no
one
retires
the
year
that
you
finally
get
this
thing
built
up.
There's
your
savings.
B
A
B
We
have
a
quarterly
luncheon
where
we
get
the
staff
together
and
talk
about
the
ins
and
outs
of
what's
happening
in
the
city
across
departments
and
I've
also
been
working
on
a
a
motivational
program.
If
you
will
what
I
would
call
dentist
dollars
and
essentially
if,
if
an
employee
gets
caught,
doing
something,
that's
a
little
above
and
beyond
they'll
get
a
certificate
essentially
a
little
dollar.
B
It's
not
a
dollar
itself
as
far
as
cash
value,
but
as
these
as
these
certificates
are
issued,
they
do
have
a
value
toward
being
able
to
get
gift
certificates
to
restaurants
or
bling.
I'm
sure
christina
can
help
me
figure
out
all
the
different
things
that
you
can
do
from
coffee
mugs
to
key
chains
or
whatever
you
know
something
that
employs
may
may
appreciate,
and
then
the
last
one,
the
section
125
expenses.
B
B
Essentially,
a
fun
70
is:
is
it
a
zero
again,
a
zero
percent
increase?
You
can
see
it's
actually
a
slight
increase
of
438
dollars
to
the
total
fund,
but
essentially
a
zero
percent
increase
in
the
in
the
overall
budget
for
that
fund.
B
The
the
council
authorized
providing
some
contributions
to
the
arustic
agency
on
aging,
and
I
just
wanted
to
bring
to
the
council's
attention
that
we
do
receive
many
other
requests
each
year.
You
know
on
page
17
of
the
council.
Packet
is
a
list
of
five
others
that
we've
received
letters
from,
and
this
is
not
all
of
them,
but
just
a
recognition
that
we
do
receive
requests
from
from
many
different
sources
asking
for
contributions.
If
the
council
wants
to
entertain
those.
B
F
Yeah,
so
how
many
other
requests
have
we
gotten.
B
E
F
One
of
the
one
of
the
things
I
like
about
this
line
item
is
that
some
of
these
organizations,
by
by
joining
with
them,
I
feel,
provide
things
that
currently
you
know
the
city
city
doesn't
so
it's
kind
of
a.
F
It's
a
a
good
yearly
investment
in
my
opinion,
but
not
necessarily
all
of
them
are,
if
I
could
suggest,
if,
if
you
could
kind
of
give
us
your
your
recommendation
on
which
ones,
you
think
are
a
good
yearly
investment.
And
why
and
then
we
can
maybe
discern
a
little
easier
on
which
ones
are.
A
I
I
agree
with,
I
agree
with
your
first
paragraph
of
your
statement:
it
it
leverages
a
community,
a
county
to
deliver
services
in
a
less
expensive
than
if
we
did
it
alone,
right
attempted
to
or
attempted
to
do
it
alone.
A
A
Homeless,
services
of
a
rustic,
I
mean
I'd
like
to
hear
what
what's
the
story
here.
I
find
this
to
be
of
great
value
to
the
taxpayers
of
caribou.
If
we
join
right
with
other
communities
to
help
solving
some
of
these
problems,
this
life
flight
foundation,
I
never
knew
one
existed.
I
guess
I'd
like
to
hear
from
them.
A
G
G
A
G
G
B
C
I
just
have
a
suggestion
on
the
contributions
end
of
it
and
these
all
these
requests
that
we're
getting
for
contributions,
and
I
I
can
foresee
that
it's
just
going
to
get
we're
going
to
get
more
and
more
might
be
something
that
you
might
want
to
think
about
putting
x
amount
of
dollars
per
year
into
the
contributions
line.
Items
section
here.
C
You
have
that
much
money
to
work
with
you
listen
to
their
presentations,
give
a
specific
time,
perhaps
that,
if
anybody's
asking
for
anything
for
in
during
a
year
give
a
specific
date
that
their
requests
have
to
be
in
and
hear
from
them.
As
you
suggested.
C
B
B
Under
80
the
unclassified
funds
under
line
45,
this
is
refunds
and
reimbursements,
as
we
look
at
the
exchanging
of
properties
or
having
to
refund
fees
that
got
paid
and
and
shouldn't
have
or
something
maybe
got
overfilled
or
something
was
in
there.
This
is
our
our
general
catch-all
for
those
types
of
expenses.
B
B
These
are
the
expenses
that
we
incur
for
going
out,
doing
mailings,
certified
letters
all
of
those
types
of
things,
and
so
you
can
see
it's
right
around
twenty
thousand
dollars
that
we've
been
looking
at
over
the
past
two
years
and
and
the
average
for
the
last
three
years
was
a
little
over
eighteen
thousand
dollars
and
abatements.
This
is
this
is
a
fund
that,
as
we
look
at
uncollectible
property
taxes,
primarily
we
have.
B
We
have
some
property
taxes
still
on
the
books
back
from
2010,
and
this
is
the
fund
that
the
the
board
of
assessors
will
will
use
if,
if
they
feel
that
an
abatement
is
appropriate,
it's
also
at
the
end
of
the
year.
If
there
are
funds
available
and
we've
gone
through,
all
the
processes
to
try
to
collect
funds
gone
through
the
court
systems.
B
In
some
cases
we've
even
had
courts
award
us
the
funds
in
a
sense
telling
the
person
you
have
to
pay
those
and
still
not
getting
the
amounts
out
of
it,
and
so
the
abatements
is
some
of
the
funding
that
we
can
use
to
in
a
sense
write
off
these
uncollectible
funds,
and
you
see
over
the
years
in
2019,
we
only
spent
about
7
700
out
of
that.
It's
not
that
our
write-off
need
was
reduced.
It's
just
that!
J
I've
asked
us
I
guess
before,
but
with
the
tax
lien
costs,
it's
kind
of
a
continuous
thing.
Isn't
it
don't
we
recover
that
money?
Eventually,
three
years
from
now,
we
put
liens
on
somebody's
property,
whether
we
they
come
in
and
purchase
the
back
from
us.
We
get
those
lane
costs
back
correct,
so
I
mean.
Is
it
kind
of
just
a
you
know?
Twenty
thousand
dollars
kind
of
across
the
line.
B
Right,
you
know
just
to
give
you
an
idea
this
year
right
now
we're
looking
at
76
properties
that
would
potentially
have
a
foreclosure
or
lean
foreclosure
on
them,
and
we
are
working
through
that
and
we'll
be
bringing
back
recommendations
to
the
council
on
that
at
your
next
meeting.
But
every
every
time
that
we
have
properties
that
don't
pay
their
taxes.
We
we
go
through.
We
have
to
put
liens
on
the
recording
fees
associated
with
those
the
the
staff
time
that
I
don't
know
the
staff
time
is
even
incorporated
into
some
of
that.
B
B
H
I
just
wanted
to
mention
that,
prior
to
wrapping
up
on
the
budget,
I'd
like
to
see
us
discuss
the
the
contract
allowances
that
we
were
discussing
a
meeting
or
two
ago
of
90
000
and
the
thought
process
of
whether
or
not
we
write
that
off
or
we
wait
and
it's
been
snowballing
up,
I
think,
is
a
bad
practice.
I
think
we
should
identify
every
year
and
take
our
lump
if
the
money
comes
in,
why
it's
a
windfall,
but
I
think
letting
it
snowball
ahead
is
just
disaster.
B
A
A
Okay,
do
you
want
to
say
something
now
you
want
to
say
something
now:
okay,
get
prepared,
I
didn't
mean
to
throw
it
at
you,
okay,
executive
session.
We
have
nothing
an
executive
session
that
would
be
item
number.
Ten
item
number
eleven,
the
next
meeting
november
second
november,
sixteenth
and
november
thirtieth
december
14th,
number
12
chair,
