▶ 38:37 Paul Brodeur: No, the Chief can handle this one. The 9-1-1 grant is a critical part of an ongoing effort by to support our local PD. We are delighted to have this opportunity to continue accept their support could you be so inclined thank you chief the floor is yours if i can go

▶ 39:05 Speaker 10: backwards to go forward originally our grant for many years was 56 187 i know that number pretty well uh two years ago we had an opportunity to take on mobile calls or cell phone calls and we did and in FY 20 a grant went from 56 187 to 81 187 it wasn't a complete year and this year we've hit the cap of 90,000 505 so it's been an increase in the mobile calls when we pick those up from 9-1-1 that's a mobile call say someone was lost in pine bags within 50 feet of that person we should be able to Locate them pretty quickly. So that's a win win for the community and the police department and public safety. That being said this year, a breakdown of our cost of personnel cost of 7129370. That offset some of our personnel costs and dispatch. And then we, there's another 350 dollars. We have our. Filters clean for the 911 room annually. This year, we're pretty fortunate that we got two new laptops for our cruises. Some of them were getting a little tired, so we were up that. That was 10,647.30. They cover a small portion of our console, which is our dispatch console, the 3,240. Then we have a system called Regional Alerts with other communities. We know a crime, for instance, everybody must have heard recently that a lot of vehicles are having their catalytic converters being stolen. So, a couple of our neighboring communities have got hits with multiple accounts of those being stolen. So we get a heads up. We notify our sector offices to be an alert. And the other part is that playback system, it's acorn recordings, our vendor. They do a playback system for us when we have to play back a call. And that's the total of the grant motion to recommend.
