to thank Pastor Holmes and white Baptist Church uh on Thanksgiving Day the church served two of our ior citizen buildings and booster and Clemington with a full Thanksgiving dinner uh the church members including the pastor was out to help uh along with the the employees that work at the building to ensure that every um senior that signed up for a meal had a warm meal that day hot meal turkey dressing and all the fixing so I just like to thank them for that um on Saturday um May roach and R was there um we attended the groundbreaking event for white house uh church I don't know whether you've seen in the building um Lighthouse I'm sorry Lighthouse the ribbon cutting whether you've seen the building or not uh yet but it's um It's not finished yet but we were able to walk inside and just get the feel of it I think the Pastor said I'm going to seek it seeks 405 but they're going to do about 350 so everyone can be comfortable they're looking at having what's called their wash night service for New Year's Eve so if everything stays on track with the electric company and the gas company and everything like that and I was really um pleased by Pastor Harley's um speech and what he said and he um really um asked the community to get involved in lindol just don't be U you know on the side lines watching this is everyone's community and it's everybody's responsibility to keep it clean and safe and those things so I likeed his call to do you for that um the last thing that I would like to add is that um on Saturday December 7th will is part Pearl Harbor day um 2400 Americans lost their lives on that day um my father-in-law was a mere 17 years old in a CV and was part of the cleanup crew and Perl Harbor so it's always something really special I used to love for him to tell us the stories about how they came in on their Bo and Dro down the bridges and they were out of there 48 Hours had constructed like all these things to help with the cleanup and things like that so I just say I said on December 7th just take a moment to remember the 24 100 people that lost their lives that day and that's all thank you uh L High School have counil it's the Wednesday the 18th 700

definitely going to be there and there is other one other thing I wanted to add Fon bank has a lot of concerns there's a scam that's going on and what it does is it sends a text to you telling you that uh someone's made two transactions on your account and when you click on it it comes up with the username and the password that goes to your account so that's something you don't want to click so that's all I one going around yeah it's it's saying that they there's there's somebody that you have a bill that you have to click on it if you click on it the ones that that ask for your username your password you don't want to do that that that put you they they they are they are they're R hooked up to the bank ready to get into your account what it says that that's that's a bad thank you m

me so I just wanted put it out there that anybody else who was feeding cats to keep an eye out I had I had the cops involved and animal control on Thanksgiving is when I found the one he was so alive but we had to have him eiz so the other thing is I know people complain about wild they don't wild they they sure put their pumpkins outside feed the wild that attracts them too so you can't complain about wild and feed the wild put that out there oh I don't know who has the trucks down here you need to learn how to park over lines you you're taking to thep anyone else the public wish this speak good evening Ro s 811 mtle Avenue um if I recall correctly a few months ago there was a mention about ATL City and's a street out there's a street has been out for a year and a half now and I know that lighting um is an important safety issue as far as you know having wellit streets did you you have to go to the app and put I CU I literally I had was working from home and I saw them out there and I said oh you're back in to fix the light he said we're going to try so something wrong with it something's wrong two times oh I don't know I'm just saying I'm just saying I know wrong it doesn't work you have the number well it's not just a bul is my point no it's it's the Jun box in the they know what it is it's just you have the she said the junction there number on it I don't have a poll number on me but I have called is can can you email it to me I will tomorrow because I have a direct contact I just can't give out that information but I will reach out tomorrow yes and um explain the the situation a year and a half it's been out twice and problem when when was the last time they were after yes and um speaking of the first week of December you know I'm all about the Health and Welfare of our community the first week of December is dedicated to cancer screening and just want to let everybody know that no matter if you have insurance or not that you're still able to get free cancer screening at organizations and health organizations around especially hospit um but there's Virtua and Jefferson also thank you just a couple quick announcements one is that um we were able to secure a fairly large donation of dog food and dog biscuits for leg residents who served our country so who are veterans um we're going to be preparing to begin discribing that in early December if people want to follow either the W page or Spectre Care Foundation page we'll be posting instructions on there how to sign up to get PR bag dog food and a couple boxes ofon um and that's pretty much it although Ro reminded me of two street lights that are out on the approach to the US a bridge um we first reported them in 2020 December 2020 took a while to figure out whose responsibility they are the two BS in question are actually a county responsibility last we knew they trying to Source this was in 22 how the county they were trying to Source solar lights to replace them it's another two years I'm wondering they were never wired in I don't know if they ever do you know the uh do you know the poll numbers and everything on those ones you reported there are no poll numbers that was part of the the length of time it took to figure out whose responsibility they were whether they were dos the municipal because the railway on it did come back to the County's responsibility they were trying to Source new lights but commissioner for that out we have since 2020 you spoke to to eight about this the about yeah was we've gone through the engineer I for you the emails if you want no but I mean you reached out to the commissioner to the commissioner directly about it yes who reached out to the engineer is on the topic and we followed up three or four times last time was in 2023 but I just BR it out there I just saw him last night too I wish I knew that I would have brought it up to but that's all right I can find him we're in the same building thanks holiday anyone else so
