What was said
39:06 And I would also, I'm new to council meetings, but I also am just somewhat concerned that there is a Christian prayer at this meeting because this seems like a government function and I'm Christian. So I don't have a problem with God, but I thought we're supposed to be a little more neutral about these things. So that's all I've got. Thank you for the chance to speak. Thank you. Okay, now we're done. All right, thanks for all those comments. Moving on to the, well, I guess just following up, I have a question based on some of the public comments related to Camp Bonneville and the FBI. As I understand, we don't currently have an agreement with the FBI to use Camp Bonneville? That is correct. And they're not using Camp Bonneville. They're not using Camp Bonneville. Is this something that will come back before the council or do we have a timeline? I don't have a timeline right now. No timeline. Okay, thanks. I just wanted to clear that up.
40:05 Is there anything from the consent agenda that any counselor would like to pull? Chair. Yes. Consent agenda item number five per community member Jackie Lane's request. Had a couple of questions that she wanted answered and I only rolled one. Oh, well, we'll bring it up when we bring that topic up. Is there any other items that you want to pull? Other counselors? I would like to pull item 14, which I believe was the engineering rate related to 179 just to provide some context there. Okay. That leaves item one through 18 with the exception of five and 14 if there's a motion to approve. So moved. Thank you for your motion. Second. Moved and seconded. All those in favor say aye. Aye. Okay, then moving on to item five. Counselor Fuentes.
41:03 Yeah, as I mentioned earlier, community member Jackie Lane had a couple of questions. One in particular was about the new timeline if there in fact is one and she had another question which I do not recall. I didn't get a chance to write it down and I was hoping that Oliver perhaps had an opportunity to write that down. And I believe Oliver's online, but I can speak to the timeline anyway right now. There isn't one. Okay. We're waiting for the work session tomorrow and to get direction from council on when we can notice for a public hearing to select an alternative. And once we have that, Oliver and his staff will solidify that into a timeline. Thank you. And I just follow up question. So this item in and of itself, I guess would this mean extending the timeline? This is simply extending this contract timeline through the end of the year so that we can once we get that information, they can continue to work.
42:02 Because we have not made a decision on the preferred alternatives. That is correct. That's delayed everything. Oliver, would you like to add anything to this? Good evening, Councillors. No, the county manager stated it very well. This will not change the budget. Nothing is just giving them the opportunity to get back to working when we have the preferred because there's the firm that will complete the final EIS. So nothing more to add, Councillors. Thank you for the opportunity. Thank you. Any other questions, Councillor Fuentes? I'd like to move to approve consent agenda item number five. Okay. Thank you for your motion. Moved and seconded. Any comments or thoughts? Hearing none. All those in favor say aye. Aye. Motion carries. Thank you.
43:01 Now item 14 related to preliminary engineering services on I-5 and Northeast 179. So Ken and Jeremy and someone I haven't met yet. Thank you for coming up. If you could just provide some context for this particular item. I know there are a lot of issues along 179th and the roads leading into it. So thank you. Yes, of course. Thank you for the opportunity. For the record, Jeremy Provenzolo, county engineer, public works. I have with me Brian Muhu. He's the project manager assigned to the corridor for the moment. And the item before you is related to preliminary engineering services being performed by WSDOT for unincorporated Clark County elements in close proximity to the interchange work that
