1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:10,360 >> Good morning. It is 9 a.m. I'm going to call the City of Dinton Public Utility Board's 2 00:00:10,360 --> 00:00:24,120 meeting of Monday, July 24th, 2023 to order. We'll start with -- we don't have the -- we're 3 00:00:24,120 --> 00:00:29,280 seeing if there's any members of the public that would like to say anything or have any 4 00:00:29,280 --> 00:00:34,120 questions. I don't appear to be. So we'll move on to a regular meeting. That's the presentations 5 00:00:34,120 --> 00:00:39,920 from the public. Excuse me. Now we're going to move on to the consent agenda. And let 6 00:00:39,920 --> 00:00:45,320 me tell you, if anybody wants to pull items A or B, we will not discuss them in an open 7 00:00:45,320 --> 00:00:49,520 meeting. We will move them to the closed meeting. Then we will pull them back out to vote on 8 00:00:49,520 --> 00:00:56,000 them. That's only if y'all want to pull them. >> Mr. Chairman, do you advise that we do 9 00:00:56,000 --> 00:00:59,600 that? >> It's up to you. It's up to you. I'm not 10 00:00:59,600 --> 00:01:04,000 going to pull them, so. >> Very well. Just curious. 11 00:01:04,000 --> 00:01:12,520 >> Okay. Cool. Any other items anybody wants to pull? Doesn't appear to be. All right, 12 00:01:12,520 --> 00:01:16,360 guys. Way to go. So we'll entertain a motion for items -- 13 00:01:16,360 --> 00:01:20,920 >> All moved. >> A, B, C, D, and E. We have a motion from 14 00:01:20,920 --> 00:01:27,440 Leigh, second from Barbara. All those in favor, please say aye. Any opposed? Appears to be 15 00:01:27,440 --> 00:01:34,640 none. Get y'all out of here quick, I bet you. Items for individual consideration. Consider 16 00:01:34,640 --> 00:01:42,280 approval of the July 10th, 2023 minutes. Got them here in front of me. Anyone? 17 00:01:42,280 --> 00:01:51,820 >> Move approval. >> Motion? 18 00:01:51,820 --> 00:01:57,040 >> Second. >> Second. Second was from Thomas. A motion 19 00:01:57,040 --> 00:02:00,280 was from Barbara. All those in favor, please say aye. 20 00:02:00,280 --> 00:02:02,200 >> Aye. >> Any opposed? 21 00:02:02,200 --> 00:02:06,160 >> Mr. Chairman, may I abstain since I was not here for the meeting? 22 00:02:06,160 --> 00:02:11,640 >> I think you may. My consideration of Robert's rules is you don't even have to have -- if 23 00:02:11,640 --> 00:02:15,480 nobody has any changes, they're automatically approved. But I've been told differently by 24 00:02:15,480 --> 00:02:19,600 lawyers. >> Well, in that case, never mind. 25 00:02:19,600 --> 00:02:24,440 >> Okay. Moving on to Christine with management reports. 26 00:02:24,440 --> 00:02:30,080 >> Okay. So on new business action items, it looks like there's one remaining item for 27 00:02:30,080 --> 00:02:36,140 update on Winter Storm URI, which has a status update that will be provided to PEB in the 28 00:02:36,140 --> 00:02:40,280 August meeting. And then on new business action -- I'm sorry, that was new business action 29 00:02:40,280 --> 00:02:46,960 items. Future agenda items. We don't currently have any unless there's anything additional 30 00:02:46,960 --> 00:02:55,280 the board would like to have brought back. >> I don't think -- I have a list in front 31 00:02:55,280 --> 00:03:01,080 of me anyway. So anybody want any new business items placed? If not, we'll just move forward 32 00:03:01,080 --> 00:03:10,880 to concluding items and let me pull my cheat sheet up. 33 00:03:10,880 --> 00:03:20,160 >> Oh, Mr. Chairman, may I -- may I put in -- could we get an update on the coal plant, 34 00:03:20,160 --> 00:03:23,440 the progress, what's happening there? >> The coal plant. 35 00:03:23,440 --> 00:03:26,800 >> The one we're selling or selling? >> The one we're selling has exploded. It's 36 00:03:26,800 --> 00:03:32,400 not there anymore. We still own a few of the properties. >> Could we have any stats about 37 00:03:32,400 --> 00:03:36,200 the properties? Is there a plan what's happening about that? 38 00:03:36,200 --> 00:03:43,360 >> Sure. I bet Tony or Terry could put that together for us. It's moving right along. 39 00:03:43,360 --> 00:03:51,320 There's a few issues. Outstanding issues. But I think we're in a good position. Okay. 40 00:03:51,320 --> 00:04:05,560 So from that, where is the cheat sheet you sent me? There it is. Okay. All right. The 41 00:04:05,560 --> 00:04:14,480 Public Utility Board will now convene at 9.04 a.m., convene in a closed meeting to deliberate 42 00:04:14,480 --> 00:04:18,200 the closed meeting items set forth on the agenda, which include the following. 43 00:04:18,200 --> 00:04:21,720 >> We're not going into closed. >> We're not? 44 00:04:21,720 --> 00:04:25,360 >> No one pulled the core items. >> Right. So those were the only items that 45 00:04:25,360 --> 00:04:26,360 were to be considered in closed? >> Yes. 46 00:04:26,360 --> 00:04:32,640 >> Okay. I didn't know if there was another one. So take that back. Back it up. And do 47 00:04:32,640 --> 00:04:39,840 you want to sit here and talk for a little while? We can do that and let you guys get 48 00:04:39,840 --> 00:04:48,400 back to work. So motion to adjourn? >> So moved. 49 00:04:48,400 --> 00:04:49,400 >> Motion. >> I know. 50 00:04:49,400 --> 00:04:50,480 >> I'm modestly confused. I'm sorry. What did I miss? 51 00:04:50,480 --> 00:04:55,280 >> So unless somebody pulled -- I didn't get it either. I thought it may have been another 52 00:04:55,280 --> 00:05:00,560 item under closed meeting session. Unless we pulled A and B, there will be no closed 53 00:05:00,560 --> 00:05:01,560 meeting. >> Oh. 54 00:05:01,560 --> 00:05:06,440 >> It was a placeholder in case there were questions about the specific item, but everything 55 00:05:06,440 --> 00:05:10,320 on the agenda today was on consent. >> I completely misunderstood that. I would 56 00:05:10,320 --> 00:05:16,600 have pulled an item just so I could learn something. Very well. I'm sorry. I missed 57 00:05:16,600 --> 00:05:19,080 the -- >> Sure. I mean, I don't think there's anything 58 00:05:19,080 --> 00:05:24,520 wrong with that, Lee. I mean, they could come out and we could pull them in there. 59 00:05:24,520 --> 00:05:29,120 >> No, that's okay. Just really caught me off guard. That's all. 60 00:05:29,120 --> 00:05:32,880 >> Me too. All right. We got a motion to adjourn for Barbara. 61 00:05:32,880 --> 00:05:36,560 >> Second. >> Second. All those in favor, please say 62 00:05:36,560 --> 00:05:37,560 aye. >> Aye. 63 00:05:37,560 --> 00:05:38,560 >> We are adjourned. Thank you.
