Generated from normalized transcript text using deterministic pattern matching.
This document surfaces candidate evidence lines only. It does not prove absence, verify claims, resolve disputes, interpret intent, or produce the final civic record.
Public-comment content is not extracted in this deterministic signal pass because comment boundaries are transcript-dependent and better handled by the downstream record-generation pass.
Use these signals as review scaffolding for a later record-generation pass, not as authoritative meeting minutes.

| $900,000 | So then I went further to ask, what is the cost for replacing that same exact vehicle we just took delivery on? And not only was I shocked with the built times of four years, I was even more shocked with the cost that… |
| $1.2 million | And not only was I shocked with the built times of four years, I was even more shocked with the cost that has escalated in two years. We placed the order for our new engine two years ago and it came in just under $900… |
| $300,000 | And not only was I shocked with the built times of four years, I was even more shocked with the cost that has escalated in two years. We placed the order for our new engine two years ago and it came in just under $900… |
| $92,000 | It’d be five to seven percent. Speaking with the salesman there was one September which we’ve missed but the next scheduled one is November 1st that’s a one and a half percent price increase and there’s another one Fe… |
| $300,000 | Also placing that order, we don’t have to commit any money to it at this time. It’s just a written purchase order signed by myself and the City Manager and we get on that build list. So going through the Fire Capital… |
| $1,227,000 | And what was the estimation cost again, about a million? Point, it’s on the, on the notes, the precise. The precise cost at this time is $1,227,000. |
| $30,000 | Yeah. Okay. Chief Miller, did you say that we could budget $30,000 a year for four years? |
| $300,000 | Chief Miller, did you say that we could budget $30,000 a year for four years? One more zero. $300,000. |
| $2 million | I would defer to Michelle but I believe are we able to budget 300,000 a year for the next four years? The funds that will be used to purchase the truck come out of the Fire Cap Improvement Fund, which is mostly ambula… |
| $61,456 | And I don’t know if finance would be comfortable depleting that fund that much. But if we prepay the entire amount that would represent a savings of $122,913. If we wanted to be conservative and pay half of it at the… |
| $4.2 million | Yes. If I’m doing my math right on all this, we had about 900,000 in the motor fuel tax that we talked about earlier. The base projects without the three alternates are just under $4.2 million. |
| $3.3 million | If I’m doing my math right on all this, we had about 900,000 in the motor fuel tax that we talked about earlier. The base projects without the three alternates are just under $4.2 million. That puts us, we’re anticipa… |
| $300,000 | And then our water main, we have a potential Sorensen grant that’s coming forward that we should know by the end of the year, and that’s about 1.6 million in water main. So between those funding sources, if you added… |
| $85,000, | And we have to make it as a plan that we can live with as far as having a commission that’s reasonable, right? We don’t have the funding to just, you know, do an entire area town because we have to, so we have to have… |
| $1,600 | If they choose not to do it, then they pay the connection fee at a later date if they waive that opportunity while we’re there. And what is that connection fee? It depends on where the water main is, but I believe it’… |

| $10,000 | Open Bible. Ivo. Okay, City Manager Boyer or Public Works Director, Darren Stigl, isn’t the average cost to connect to the city between $10,000 to $12,000? |
| $12,000 | Open Bible. Ivo. Okay, City Manager Boyer or Public Works Director, Darren Stigl, isn’t the average cost to connect to the city between $10,000 to $12,000? |
| $16,000 | Ivo. Okay, City Manager Boyer or Public Works Director, Darren Stigl, isn’t the average cost to connect to the city between $10,000 to $12,000? You just said it’s $16,000 to $32,000. |

| $5,000, | So that cost becomes their own, which they negotiate with a plumber and that depends on how far they have to go to their house, what the materials are. We don’t pay that at all. Our initial connection to each house co… |

Civic Object Signals
| Type | Evidence |
|---|---|
| Grant / Program Reference | That is why the partnership will be submitting a grant application to the state of Illinois for the regional site readiness grant opportunity. |
| Grant / Program Reference | If awarded, this grant would pay for studies and preparation for future site development along key corridors. |
| Grant / Program Reference | And they became a hub, or they received grant dollars from the State of Illinois to administer, I’m going to get this program name wrong if I don’t read it. |
| Grant / Program Reference | So it’s a pre-apprenticeship program and understanding that and the goals of the program has and the goals of the yield program we were able to make the connection and say that the yield program can be a service provider and receive grant dollars from the state through Goodwil… |
| Grant / Program Reference | And using those and so many other tools, we continue to promote our tourism partners while also sending them grant opportunities so they can be as productive as possible with the funds that they have because we know most of them are nonprofit as well. |
| Grant / Program Reference | And others that have water and sewer and all the infrastructure to them, that’s another reason why we’re writing the grant to pursue planning for future sites, so thank you, I mean it is, yeah, it is work, and we’re continuing to dedicate it to it. |
| Grant / Program Reference | And then our water main, we have a potential Sorensen grant that’s coming forward that we should know by the end of the year, and that’s about 1.6 million in water main. |
| Contract / Agreement Reference | They’ve been given, you know, a heads up that this is being discussed by the city council, but then we will have to memorialize the creation of the position through our MOU with the union and then formally approve the job description by the city council as well there, so. |
| Ordinance Reference | To 13, Discussion Regarding Ordinance Approving Amendment to Lease Amendment with Thank You for Solar Array at Landfill, presented by Director Duckman. |
| Contract / Agreement Reference | Just as a point of clarification so I think what your suggestion is is that you want to put into the hands of the people the decision whether or not to run the water main out to Open Bible are we gonna pay for this project yes okay that decision that is different though than r… |
| Contract / Agreement Reference | Our contract that was approved at that meeting was only for design, not to move forward to bidding, right? |
| Contract / Agreement Reference | So our contract is just to get it to a bid ready set of plans that then can be shelved, discussed, Grant opportunities could be looked for. |
| Procurement Reference | There was no intent from the design approval that was there to move this to a bid at that time. |
| Contract / Agreement Reference | So this contract without council approval to go to bid cannot go to bid, right? |
| Grant / Program Reference | Then maybe we can chase some grant money because of the children and items out there. |
| Procurement Reference | And this is probably a two to three month construction window, depending on when it would get fit in or bid. |
| Grant / Program Reference | I really think due to the early childcare aspect of this project, along with the safety needs and the fire needs of the community, this is something that a lot of people here could work together to find some kind of avenue to, you know, maybe we can find a grant to fully fund it. |
| Grant / Program Reference | I have no idea what power that school or the demographic of that school would be to have to find a grant to place a public infrastructure. |
| Contract / Agreement Reference | If the contract is pulled for the design, is that what we’re discussing now, Do you think he’s holding it for the design also? |
| Grant / Program Reference | I have not attempted to look for any grant opportunity on this project to this point. |
| Grant / Program Reference | And what that design and the whole concept I mean you can’t go looking for grant money if you don’t know what you’re asking for you got a which you got to put the horse before the cart well that’s already happened but it’s in since the design is already at the EPA that’s enoug… |
| Grant / Program Reference | But yes I would be willing to pull back my my motion but adding to that as you are doing we’re just not gonna let it just linger let’s put this thing yeah let’s let’s put this thing on a time schedule to meet to meet reporting updates I don’t know monthly weekly weekly every m… |
