WEBVTT 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 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 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 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 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 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 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 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 00:00:56.000 --> 00:00:59.600 that? >> It's up to you. It's up to you. I'm not 00:00:59.600 --> 00:01:04.000 going to pull them, so. >> Very well. Just curious. 00:01:04.000 --> 00:01:12.520 >> Okay. Cool. Any other items anybody wants to pull? Doesn't appear to be. All right, 00:01:12.520 --> 00:01:16.360 guys. Way to go. So we'll entertain a motion for items -- 00:01:16.360 --> 00:01:20.920 >> All moved. >> A, B, C, D, and E. We have a motion from 00:01:20.920 --> 00:01:27.440 Leigh, second from Barbara. All those in favor, please say aye. Any opposed? Appears to be 00:01:27.440 --> 00:01:34.640 none. Get y'all out of here quick, I bet you. Items for individual consideration. Consider 00:01:34.640 --> 00:01:42.280 approval of the July 10th, 2023 minutes. Got them here in front of me. Anyone? 00:01:42.280 --> 00:01:51.820 >> Move approval. >> Motion? 00:01:51.820 --> 00:01:57.040 >> Second. >> Second. Second was from Thomas. A motion 00:01:57.040 --> 00:02:00.280 was from Barbara. All those in favor, please say aye. 00:02:00.280 --> 00:02:02.200 >> Aye. >> Any opposed? 00:02:02.200 --> 00:02:06.160 >> Mr. Chairman, may I abstain since I was not here for the meeting? 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 00:02:11.640 --> 00:02:15.480 nobody has any changes, they're automatically approved. But I've been told differently by 00:02:15.480 --> 00:02:19.600 lawyers. >> Well, in that case, never mind. 00:02:19.600 --> 00:02:24.440 >> Okay. Moving on to Christine with management reports. 00:02:24.440 --> 00:02:30.080 >> Okay. So on new business action items, it looks like there's one remaining item for 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 00:02:36.140 --> 00:02:40.280 August meeting. And then on new business action -- I'm sorry, that was new business action 00:02:40.280 --> 00:02:46.960 items. Future agenda items. We don't currently have any unless there's anything additional 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 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 00:03:01.080 --> 00:03:10.880 to concluding items and let me pull my cheat sheet up. 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, 00:03:20.160 --> 00:03:23.440 the progress, what's happening there? >> The coal plant. 00:03:23.440 --> 00:03:26.800 >> The one we're selling or selling? >> The one we're selling has exploded. It's 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 00:03:32.400 --> 00:03:36.200 the properties? Is there a plan what's happening about that? 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. 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. 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 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 00:04:14.480 --> 00:04:18.200 the closed meeting items set forth on the agenda, which include the following. 00:04:18.200 --> 00:04:21.720 >> We're not going into closed. >> We're not? 00:04:21.720 --> 00:04:25.360 >> No one pulled the core items. >> Right. So those were the only items that 00:04:25.360 --> 00:04:26.360 were to be considered in closed? >> Yes. 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 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 00:04:39.840 --> 00:04:48.400 back to work. So motion to adjourn? >> So moved. 00:04:48.400 --> 00:04:49.400 >> Motion. >> I know. 00:04:49.400 --> 00:04:50.480 >> I'm modestly confused. I'm sorry. What did I miss? 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 00:04:55.280 --> 00:05:00.560 item under closed meeting session. Unless we pulled A and B, there will be no closed 00:05:00.560 --> 00:05:01.560 meeting. >> Oh. 00:05:01.560 --> 00:05:06.440 >> It was a placeholder in case there were questions about the specific item, but everything 00:05:06.440 --> 00:05:10.320 on the agenda today was on consent. >> I completely misunderstood that. I would 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 00:05:16.600 --> 00:05:19.080 the -- >> Sure. I mean, I don't think there's anything 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. 00:05:24.520 --> 00:05:29.120 >> No, that's okay. Just really caught me off guard. That's all. 00:05:29.120 --> 00:05:32.880 >> Me too. All right. We got a motion to adjourn for Barbara. 00:05:32.880 --> 00:05:36.560 >> Second. >> Second. All those in favor, please say 00:05:36.560 --> 00:05:37.560 aye. >> Aye. 00:05:37.560 --> 00:05:38.560 >> We are adjourned. Thank you.
