6
00:00:30.300 --> 00:00:37.979
To an approval here today, but then there are still questions that they may have. So we're kind of subject to.

7
00:00:37.979 --> 00:00:42.899
You know, approval of the speaker subject to further questions. Correct?

8
00:00:42.899 --> 00:00:46.079
Okay all right. Can I get a motion?

Post promote any new business check.

11
00:00:54.390 --> 00:01:01.409
No, no, to be quite honest, I'm just kind of working on the projects that we have right now.

12
00:01:01.409 --> 00:01:08.370
Uh, we're heading toward the end of the year, so then I'll be sending out a low in December.

13
00:01:08.370 --> 00:01:12.359
Uh, the annual rate, the request for annual reports from everybody.

14
00:01:12.359 --> 00:01:15.480
For all the companies, and then to.

15
00:01:15.480 --> 00:01:24.090
You know, gather that information to the, uh, the Paris reporting and all that stuff. So I'll be doing that for.

16
00:01:24.090 --> 00:01:27.329
Uh, the idea and for the.

17
00:01:27.329 --> 00:01:31.920
You know, the civic development corporation, so.

18
00:01:31.920 --> 00:01:38.430
In the next meetings 15th at the 4th scale, if 1115th the Ford skyler club for lunch.

19
00:01:38.430 --> 00:01:43.500
I hope that you're going to be there. We will have. It's Wednesday.

20
00:01:44.064 --> 00:01:56.965
Yeah, so we will have agenda items there. We will have the final resolution for olsten. I have reviewed and I'll be passing it on to council. Today.

21
00:01:57.385 --> 00:02:03.385
The application for Rob, he purchase the children's museum.

22
00:02:03.689 --> 00:02:12.240
He's looking to make that apartments and then also to have a restaurant facility on the 1st, 4 and a little expansion with that.

23
00:02:12.240 --> 00:02:20.340
So, a good project there, so we'll have some agenda items and then we'll break off the meeting and then.

24
00:02:20.340 --> 00:02:24.389
You know, just have some nice lunch and stuff like that.

25
00:02:24.389 --> 00:02:30.120
All right new journey hang on.

26
00:02:30.120 --> 00:02:33.240
Hello? Hi. All right.

27
00:02:33.240 --> 00:02:38.849
Go ahead. Yeah, so I want you all to be aware of that.

28
00:02:38.849 --> 00:02:43.919
Looming out there is a requirement that project.

29
00:02:43.919 --> 00:02:51.270
Have for billing rates, but no guidance has been issued yet. We're following it.

30
00:02:51.270 --> 00:02:58.740
It's such time as we get some guidance, we will let, you know, but there is that is looming out there.

31
00:03:00.150 --> 00:03:03.780
Okay, is that been out there before? Linda?

32
00:03:03.780 --> 00:03:08.009
Not talk to both, but it's never good.

33
00:03:08.009 --> 00:03:11.430
It's it's been talked about for years.

34
00:03:11.430 --> 00:03:15.240
But this is the 1st time that something is actually passed.

35
00:03:15.240 --> 00:03:19.830
But there's no regulations on it and it's supposed to be effective.

36
00:03:19.830 --> 00:03:28.259
Well, it was in the budget and it's supposed to be effective January. 1st.

37
00:03:28.259 --> 00:03:37.139
However, they haven't formed any of the regulatory committees that are supposed to be overseeing it and there's a lot of ambiguity. Um.

38
00:03:37.139 --> 00:03:46.650
We have canvassed other ideas and honestly, nobody's really taking any action to address it because nobody knows what to do yet. Yeah.

39
00:03:46.650 --> 00:03:50.039
We are working with Jack.

40
00:03:50.039 --> 00:03:53.039
Yeah, we're, we're going to create a checklist.

41
00:03:53.039 --> 00:04:05.729
For applicants to fill out to see if their project would, in fact, be subject to the prevailing wage rules but that's really all that we can do at this point.

42
00:04:05.729 --> 00:04:11.069
Almost takes away the benefit of the idea.

43
00:04:11.814 --> 00:04:25.375
Yeah, like with me as well as the other idea, is it a, sounds us because it's the 1 program that's been a constant in state development and economic development for the state for years.

44
00:04:25.375 --> 00:04:27.714
And then all of a sudden now, you're, you're just going to.

45
00:04:28.134 --> 00:04:38.994
Either force people to just do small projects, because there's a dollar limit and everything, or you're going to force companies, especially regional type of things, you know.

46
00:04:38.994 --> 00:04:50.843
Well, here, we don't have to deal with that in in Pennsylvania or Ohio, and we're just going to skip the state over and do our development there. You know, obviously if we have a local developer, we've got some guys from Syracuse.

47
00:04:51.088 --> 00:05:03.353
You know, they're, they're doing projects in, but they're they're close to us. So you don't find them well, if we can't develop this building. Well, then we're just going to find something in Pennsylvania. Probably not gonna work like that.

48
00:05:03.564 --> 00:05:07.884
But any of these regional type of things, you know, things that end up at Griffith.

49
00:05:08.309 --> 00:05:11.848
Uh, end up in with the tractor supply.

50
00:05:11.848 --> 00:05:15.088
You know, and stuff that's going down in Frankfurt.

51
00:05:15.088 --> 00:05:18.269
Or in Amsterdam, I think you're going to find that, uh.

52
00:05:18.269 --> 00:05:29.788
Big distribution centers and things like that might move to a different state, you know, instead of being subject to, because it's just a lot of construction on the building and a lot of costs.

53
00:05:29.788 --> 00:05:38.699
Cool. Okay. Well, thanks for that. Good news Linda? Yeah. Always I always try to help.

54
00:05:38.699 --> 00:05:45.088
You can thank you for the Democrats in the majority dial in Albany.

55
00:05:46.168 --> 00:05:50.908
Yeah, it doesn't make any sense, you know.

56
00:05:50.908 --> 00:06:02.788
Nope, all right well, motion in a 2nd, all in favor post. Okay. Thanks, Linda. Thanks Laura. Thank you. All Thank you.

57
00:06:02.788 --> 00:06:04.536
Hello.
