We're going — Well, now that's something else that we've got to talk about when we open all these bids up too, because the auditor said that we can't we've got to accept one bid. — Okay. — We can't accept all, you know, the bids. And if they don't have it, you know, we can go where we needed to go. But we're going to have to accept one bid instead of accepting them all.

This is Kinetic or formerly known as Windstream. They have already They have internet cables, fibers set up all over the county anyway. I went through and they have did everything they're supposed to to assure us of that franchise for us to enter to a franchise agreement under the

ordinance. [snorts] So, I would from a legal standpoint, they've done everything they're supposed to. I would say the court should if we want to keep them here, we should go ahead and approve. — Any discussion?

auditor said that we needed to do this is you could take each individual whatever's cheaper and accept it. So, if one of these items is cheaper on who else bid on it, Scotty's — Yes, Scotty's. — So, we can accept that as a cheaper price. So, it's going to it's it's going to be a little different. — Yeah. — Yeah, because they bid each individual item, so we can compare each individual item. — So — just one or It can be — Okay. — item. — All right. So, this is Caney Bill's on theirs and their 16s are $18 and I'm assuming this is per ton. So, uh 3s $17 8s, they No, not available. Number 9s, 2050. Number 11s, 2050. — [snorts] — 57s, 18. Riprap 19 DGA, 15 or 1450. Uh
