If
I
need

so
those
of
you
that

A
A

E
B
B
A
And
then
all
benny
albany
new
york
is
pronounced
in
georgia,
albany
georgia,
so
I
I
think
the
reason
this
pronunciation
stuff
is
important.
It
kind
of
tells
how
old
school
you
are
right,
how
how
southern
you
are
right
mayor,
you
think
exactly
yes,
sir
yeah
well
mayor,
walton
county
is
growing
so
much
and
for
those
of
you
that
haven't
been
over
to
walton
county,
a
piece
of
their
county
is
getting
that
ribbian
plant.
A
A
E
It's
really
interesting
and-
and
I
appreciate
your
you're
mentioning
our
downtown-
we
were
number
one
downtown
in
the
state
three
years
ago
and
then
then
pandemic
hit
and
we
went
to
a
total
it's
shut
down,
as
as
we
were
required
required
by
the
governor
to
be.
But
during
that
year
our
downtown
businesses
saw
a
22.5
increase
in
sales
tax
revenues.
So
it
was
very
much
a
love.
E
Your
neighbor
scenario
that
julie
and
I
live
about
half
a
mile
from
downtown
instead
of
cooking
every
night
and
not
that
we
cook
every
night
anyway,
but
instead
of
when
we
were
home,
feeling
sorry
for
ourselves
and
staying
in
and
cooking.
We
of
course
we're
concerned
about
the
world,
but
my
friend
ross
bradley
owns
your
pile
right,
downtown
and,
and
we
would
drive
up
to
the
back
on
our
golf
cart,
pick
up
to
go
and
then
take
it
home
and
the
city
side
of
things.
E
We
helped
we
assisted
with
each
of
our
downtown
businesses,
helping
to
fund
their
utility
costs
over
a
few
month
period
of
that
year.
We
also
allowed
our
our
downtown
restaurants
to
if
ordering
a
meal
to
allow
them
to
serve
alcohol
and
to
sell
bottled
clothes,
bottled
spirits.
So
anything
we
could
do
to
help
those
businesses
succeed.
E
B
E
Lucky
and
look,
I
can't
attribute
it
all
to
everything
that
that
we've
done
as
a
city.
You
know
the
national
administrations
financially.
I
think
people
feel
much
better
and
I
think
that
as
covet
hit
code
spiked
under
the
george
floyd
protest
movement,
a
lot
of
folks
moved
here
for
quality
of
life
issues.
We
have
600
homes
that
have
been
approved
in
the
last
year
that
are
in
the
very
beginning
phases
of
construction,
and
we
have
a
moratorium
on
on
new
neighborhoods
over
five
houses
right
now,
wow.
A
Wow,
you
know
your
old
mill
and
so
many
you
know
so
many
towns
have
old
mills
or
textual
facilities,
but
we
were
getting
an
oak
table
that
I
had
bought
right
after
college.
When
I
got
married,
we
bought
it
at
rex
furniture
back
where
I
grew
up
in
clayton
county
beautiful.
You
know
oak
table,
you
know
locally
made
and
wendy
wanted
to
have
it
refinished
and
you
had
a
place
in
the
mill
a
couple
of
ladies
over
there
that
were
doing
really
cool
refinishing
work
on
old
furniture.
A
So
we
took
our
table
our
chairs
over
there
right.
They,
you
know,
painted
them
and
did
all
their
little
work.
Faith
you've
seen
these.
I
don't
even
know
what
it's
called,
but
they'll
they'll
paint
it
and
they'll
do
little
designs
on
it
or
or
make
it
look
like
distressed.
It's
been
distressed.
You
know.
A
A
E
E
Well
and
part
of
the
the
way
we
moved
around
some
businesses
kind
of
kind
of
in
a
a
new
manner
of
speaking
that
you
see
only
in
places
like
atlanta
or
larger
communities.
We
re
redid
both
of
our
mills.
They
were
antique
malls.
The
the
mill,
the
former
walton
mill
that
was
owned
owned
by
the
felkers,
is
now
we
have
a
woodworking
company
there
called
made
in
monroe
and
they
are
fantastic
business.
They
do
more
large-scale
production,
but
there's
still
some
folks
up
top
that
do
the
refinishing.
A
A
B
A
Thanks
a
lot
hey,
let's,
let's
talk
with
mark
kuntz
mark
works
with
mitsubishi,
and
I
mean
it's
a
dc's,
a
big
company.
They
they
make.
You
know
heavy
industrial
equipment,
gas
turbines
cars,
but
they
make
hvac
equipment
and
that's
the
division
that
mark
works
with,
but
he
lives
in
monroe
he's
got
a
very
cool,
sustainable
home
and
I've
been
to
his
home.
We
actually
go
to
church
together
as
well,
so
mark.
We
are
designating
you
as
our
good
citizen
today.
C
Well,
we
fell
in
love
with
the
area
we
were
living
in
swaney
had
a
daughter
get
married
to
a
georgia
grown
young
man
who
we
know
is
going
to
be
out
in
the
watkinsville
area
and
we
told
them
we're
going
to
find
us
a
piece
of
property
near
you
guys
and
got
a
realtor,
and
he
showed
us
a
lot
of
places.
We
found
this
place
in
monroe.
C
Just
fell
in
love
with
it,
it's
12
acres
on
a
little
lake
and
we
thought
about
remodeling
a
home
that
was
on
the
property,
but
we
wanted
this
to
be
something
unique
in
terms
of
sustainability
and
energy
efficiency,
and
our
builder
said
I
could.
I
could
do
that
to
your
old
house,
but
it'd
probably
be
easier
to
just
tear
it
down
and
start
over.
C
Well,
we
said
how
about
we
start
over
at
the
other
end
of
the
lake,
so
he
built
us
a
beautiful
high
performance
home
to
which
we
added
every
conceivable
mitsubishi
electric
device
to
further
reduce
the
energy
usage
and
then
topped
it
off
with
mitsubishi
electric
solar
panels.
So
for
the
life
of
the
home,
we've
put
about
50
percent,
more
energy
onto
the
walton
emcee
grid
than
we've
taken
off
and
for
the
last
year
we've
lived
here
full
time,
and
that
includes
our
transportation.
A
You
are
net
negative
as
you
feed
energy
back
to
the
grid
and
the
candida
building
at
georgia.
Tech
is
a
similar
building.
We
featured
them
on
energy
matters
where
they
could
actually
power
an
entire
other
candida
building
with
the
energy
that
they
put
back
on
the
grid.
So
I
know
walton
emc
has
been
very
aggressive
in
adding
solar
all
around
the
state.
Facebook
gets
their
solar
from
walton.
More
and
more
companies
are
utilizing
walton
emc,
so
they
they're
a
leader
is.
C
C
I
worked
with
folks
over
there.
Jeff
paul
was
the
the
leader
he
took
a
look
at
my
wiring
schematics
gave
me
some
pointers.
We
put
the
system
in
as
per
the
schematic,
they
came
out,
they
approved
it
and
we
had
the
thing
running
within
a
day
of
having
it
complete
and
I'll
point
out.
I
I
actually
did
the
installation
myself
and
I'm
not
an
electrician,
so
the
guidance
that
we
got
there
and
the
oversight
led
to
a
very
good
outcome.
C
We
do
have
the
the
energy
storage
system
on
site
here
as
well,
to
be
net
zero
in
real
time.
You've
got
to
have
storage
because
your
system
is
going
to
produce
way
more
energy
than
you
need
in
the
afternoon
and
of
course
overnight
you
don't
have
any
so
we
put
in
a
10
kilowatt
hour
battery
and
that
has
allowed
us
to
go
with
real
time
net
zero,
not
every
day.
You
know
the
dead
of
winter.
C
When
we've
got
dark
cloudy
days,
we
we
do
run
out,
but
it's
net
positive
in
an
overall
year
and
it's
net
zero
on
a
nice
sunny
day
in
real
time,
the
mitsubishi
mini
splits
really
contribute
to
that.
As
you
mentioned
tim.
These
are.
This:
is
the
most
energy
efficient
way
to
heat
and
cool
your
home?
We
have
no
fossil
fuel
here
in
the
house
at
all,
so
our
cooking,
our
water
heating,
our
heating
and
air
conditioning
all
electric
and
the
mitsubishi
systems
give
you
each
room.
C
C
It
doesn't
draw
much
power
and
it
ramps
very
slowly
and
even
in
an
outage
condition,
I've
got
the
ability
to
run
one
of
the
many
splits
and
keep
us
comfortable.
During
the
say,
we
had
an
ice
storm
or
some
other
reason
that
the
grid
shuts
down
so
really
gives
us
a
very
efficient
way
to
live,
grid
connected
and
grid
isolated.
A
C
C
It
always
strikes
me
when
I'm
visiting
tokyo
city
of
tens
of
millions
of
people
there
are
no
trash
receptacles
anywhere
people
take
their
trash
home,
they
sort
it
they
recycle
it.
They
make
good
use
of
it
that
permeates
the
culture
and
that's
what
led
to
the
creation
of
these
hyper,
efficient
heating
and
air
conditioning
systems.
C
When
america
started
to
go
in
the
direction
of
high
performance,
construction,
net,
zero
lead
passive
house,
the
technology
was
ready
to
go
proven
and
all
we
had
to
do
was
get
it
to
american
standards
and
adopt
it,
and
that
culture
continues
to
drive.
The
efficiency
goes
up
every
year.
It
continues
to
get
better.
A
Well,
mark
thank
you
for
being
our
good
citizen
and
your
neighbor
rick
over
here.
You
need
to
see
rick's
place
and
he
needs
to
see
your
place
because
you,
both
you
both,
are
doing
in
some
incredible
things.
Rick
rick
probably
had
the
first
solar
in
walton
county.
Don't
you
think
rick
didn't
y'all
have
the
first
solar
array
out
there.
A
F
A
Yeah,
that's
great
mayor,
the
mayor's
backstage
listening
you
can
give.
He
can
send
a
little.
Thank
you
note
out
there
to
rick
for
feeding
all
that
solar
back
mark
what
I
love
about,
what
rick
is
doing
out
there
and
they've
been
doing
this
for
wow
rick,
maybe
a
decade
now,
where
you
guys
are
taking
oils
right.
French
fry
oil,
chicken
grease
different,
you
know
things
and
then
at
least
the
last
time
I
was
there,
you
were
making
it
in
500
gallon
batches.
How
have?
F
F
We
were
going
to
build
a
bigger
facility
and
then
with
the
the
economics
in
the
ups
and
downs
with
the
credits
we
we
elected
not
to
do
that
and
focus
instead
on
collecting
the
used
cooking
oil
that
you
were
talking
about,
and
at
this
point
now
we
do.
Our
our
batch
size
is
is
right
around
1500
gallons
and
we
make
but
fuel
mainly
for
ourselves
and
for
some
key
clients
and
our
our
trucking
has
gotten
fairly
large.
We
now
collect
these
cooking
oil
in
the
throughout
the
southeast
and
from
over
2
000
restaurants.
F
We
we
ended
up
getting
awarded
all
the
forts
and
bases
in
the
southeast,
with
the
exception
of
a
few,
so
we're
going
all
the
way
up
to
fort
bragg
and
dealing
with
their
restaurants
and
going
all
the
way
down
to
eglin
air
force
base.
So
we've
kind
of
really
expanded
our
our
overall
collection
reach
and
we're
doing.
We
provide
now
the
feedstock
to
the
majors,
such
as
valero's
joint
venture
diamond
green
down
in
new
orleans,
where
they
actually
make
something
called
renewable
diesel
where
they
crack.
F
They
use
cooking
oil
like
they
would
crack
crude
oil,
but
because
they're
dealing
with
a
renewable
product.
It's
it's
carbon,
it's
it's!
It's
carbon
negative
and
we've
we've
provided
them.
We
provide
to
nesty
and
savannah,
and
then
we
also
provide
reg,
which
is
one
of
the
largest
publicly
traded
renewable
producers
in
the
country
and
right
now
we're
doing
about
a
hundred
tanker
loads
a
month
to
all
three
of
these
entities
and
wow.
It's
really
kind
of
taken
off.
C
A
F
Well
there
there
is
a
lot
of
acquisition
going
on,
but
our
goal
is
to
you
know:
what
do
you
do
with
cash
when
you
get
it?
Are
you
going
to
put
it
in
the
stock
market?
And
then
then?
What?
So?
If
you
invest
in
your
company,
you've
got
something:
that's
a
predictable
revenue
generator.
It's
it's
a
it's
a
better,
it's
kind
of
a
better
model
and
we
we
like
it
because
we
we
actually
annex
that
land
into
the
city.
So
we
work
very
closely
with
the
city
and
you're
right
it.
F
We
have
a
lot
of
trucks.
Now
we
have
over
20
tankers
and
then
we
have
our
our
vacuum
trucks
and
we
kind
of
have
out
grown
the
the
area
that
we're
in
which
is
right
on
monroe
jersey,
road
and
we
recently
teamed
up
with
wesley
who
owns
brown
oil
company
and
we
bought
some
land.
Industrial
land
actually
had
it
just
recently,
rezoned
that
was
out
by
the
old
universal
rundle
plant.
F
So
we're
going
to
move
a
lot
of
our
truck
traffic
out
there,
which
will
be
nice
because
we
can
jump
right
on
11
and
hop
down
to
I-20,
but
we
also
have
we
opened
other
facilities.
We
have
one
in
alabama
in
somerdale,
which
is
right
near
the
mobile
people,
love
the
fry
down
there.
So
there's
a
lot
of
good
good
oil
restaurants.
Some
of
these
restaurants
are
generating
as
much
as
200
gallons
a
month
of
oil,
and
then
we
have
another
facility
up
in
in
right
outside
of
richmond
virginia.
A
F
In
monroe,
the
monroe
recycling
center,
it's
actually
a
county
facility
where
you
can
go,
recycle
your
your
plastics,
your
cardboard,
your
paper.
We
have
a
bin
out
there
and
you
can
basically
just
take
your
container
and
then
drop
it
right
into
the
bin
and
and
this
these
kind
of
recycling
centers
exist
pretty
much
in
you
know:
morgan
county
and
in
newton
county,
where
you
can
do
that,
and
then
we
just
go
pick
up.
Instead
of
dealing
with
a
one,
gallon
jug
we're
dealing
with
two
to
three
hundred
gallon
bin.
B
A
So
I
wish
I
could
just
clone
both
of
you
guys,
because
what
you're
doing
out
there,
both
with
energy
efficiency,
mark
your
own
you're
living
it
rich
you're,
you
know
what
you're
doing
with
with
recycling
oil
your
solar
commitment,
I
mean
it's
just
it's
just
incredible
and
I
just
want
to
just
acknowledge
the
great
leadership
that
you're
both
displaying
here
and
it's
our
privilege
to
be
able
to
recognize
you
today.
So
thank
you.
A
A
I
will
have
my
public
service
commission
work
that
I'm
going
to
hop
off
on
in
just
a
second
faith's
gonna
interview
jessica.
We
always
do
a
segment
about
human
trafficking
and
and
so
faith's
gonna
interview,
jessica
and
wrap
our
show
up
today,
but
jessica.
I
just
say
that
you
guys
are,
you
know,
are
really
you
know,
you've
really
identified
something
that
a
lot
of
people
weren't
aware
is
happening.
You
know
when
girls
are
branded.
A
Essentially,
I
spoke
yesterday
in
valdosta
about
human
trafficking,
and
people
were
very
interested
to
know
about
what's
happening
and
and
they
want
to
help.
But
when
you
get
down
to
this
detail
about
about
these
girls
being
branded
with
these
tattoos,
I
mean
you
know
people's
mouths,
their
draw
their
jaw
just
drops
open.
They
just
can't
believe
you
know
all
that's
happening
out
there.
So
thank
you
for
your
leadership.
I'm
gonna
hop
off
and
face
gonna
continue
to
talk
with
you
and
look
you.
B
So
jessica,
you've
been
on
a
couple
of
times
one
of
my
favorite
ministries
that
we
work
with.
I
think
the
work
that
you're
doing
is
so
unique,
especially
here
in
the
state
and
fills
a
need.
That
is
not
something
most
people
would
think
of,
but
I
know
it
completely
changes
the
lives
of
these
women
that
you
work
with,
so
tell
us
a
little
bit
about
atlanta
redemption
inc
and
what
it
is
that
you
guys
do.
D
D
D
New,
no,
we
actually
started
beyond
inc.
In
2018
we
had
a
therapist
that
joined
on
with
us,
and
it's
just
an
option
for
people
that
may
not
have
insurance
or
able
to
afford
to
to
have
mental
health
counseling,
because
it
is
something
that
is
expensive.
So
we
we
wanted
to
make
sure
that
we
provided
that,
because
some
people
need
that
extra
support.
B
D
B
And
so
let's
talk
for
a
second
about
the
kind
of
artists
that
are
needed
for
this
work,
because
you
can't
just
take
a
survivor
of
something
traumatic
like
trafficking
or
abuse
into
any
old
tattoo
shop
right
and
and
have
a
pleasant
experience.
So
tell
me
how
you
connect
with
your
artist
and
what
you're
looking
for
in
your
shops.
D
Well,
what's
awesome
about
the
tattoo
community
is
that
many
of
them
are
like
amazing
people
and
there's
been
the
stigma
against
tattoo
shops
for
a
very
long
time-
and
I
think
that's
in
the
last
few
years
have
really
lightened
up
a
lot
and
it's
becoming
more
acceptable
in
our
society,
which
is
awesome
and
the
people
that
work
with
ari.
They
go
through
a
background
check.
D
They
go
through
trauma-informed
training,
they
are
offered
safe,
place
training
and
we
just
want
to
make
sure
that
wherever
we
send
somebody
they're
going
to
be
in
really
good
environments,
there's
no
drugs
or
alcohol
in
the
shops,
which
typically
there
isn't.
But
we
just
want
to
make
sure
that
we
are
adding
that
layer
of
protection
and
we
always
have
a
volunteer
that
goes
with
the
survivor
to
a
shop
or
the
removal
specialist.
B
D
D
They're
looking
for
basic
needs,
shelter,
food,
you
know
all
those
things
connection,
and
so
she
lived
with
that
on
her
for
17
years
and
we
were
able
to
cover
that
recently
actually
in
the
monroe
area,
and
she
was
able
to
be
set
free
from
that
that
mark
on
her-
and
I
remember
her
seeing
it
and
just
staring
in
the
mirror
for
for
a
good
like
10
15
minutes.
She
just
kept
looking
at
it
and
she
kept
like
looking
at
her
neck
and
she
was
like
wow.
It's.
It's
gone,
I
you
know
I'm
not.
D
D
B
D
D
We
are
looking
to
expand
our
board
of
directors,
we're
looking
to
expand
our
advisory
board
volunteers,
community
donors.
We
also
have
opportunities
for
people
to
serve
on
our
scholarship
committee,
so
they
would
go
over
applications.
So
there's
a
process
for
all
that
and
we
can
go
over
that
through
a
phone
call.
B
Awesome
jessica,
thank
you
so
much
for
coming
back
on
with
us.
It
is
always
a
pleasure
to
have
you

want
to
say
goodbye
to
everybody.
Thank
you
all
so
much
for
coming
on
monroe
is
close
to
my
heart.
I
spent
I
told
the
mayor
earlier
this
week.
I
spent
my
entire
youth
years
going
to
church
in
monroe
on
south
madison,
so
I
hope
you
come.
E
B
B
D
B
B

We

we
are
taking
next
week
off
so
for
our
community
focused
viewers
in
march,
we're
going
to
be
on
kind
of
a
bi-weekly
schedule,
so
we'll
have
community
focus
on
the
10th
and
on
the
24th,
so
we'll
be
skipping.

going.
