Dual Z on an Ender 3? Let's do it. My name is Jim and this is the edge of tech. So recently I just did the printer mods direct drive upgrade on my Ender 3. There have been a lot of comments in the notes of that video saying that this is too much weight on the gantry and it could cause sagging. So I reached out to Tim at TH3D and they just released their Ender 3 dual Z upgrade kit. Perfect timing. He sent me one over and we're gonna install it today right on this Ender 3. So why would we want to do that? Well, it's gonna help eliminate the ex-gantry sagging that people are saying that this upgrade makes. Now it's been proven that these things stock can print really really good. But why not spend some money and make it print even better? A couple cool things about this. It works with the standard or the pro. So you don't have to worry about which version of the Ender 3 you have. It has a 90 day warranty from TH3D. If you have any issues in that 90 day warranty, they'll hook you up. All you got to do is contact them and say, hey, I got this from you and this is what's going on. Enough talk. Let's get this package opened up and let's see what's inside. So as you can see, it all comes very nicely sealed in this plastic, which is really cool to see from TH3D. They got a new machine. It can seal everything and that looks really professional. Okay, so in the package, you should get everything you see here. There should be four M4 screws with T-nuts for the bearings and those are actually already installed in here. And those are for the bearing blocks. Not to mention the two bearing blocks right here with the bearings pre-installed, which is pretty cool. Two M3 screws with T-nuts and washers for the belt pulley right here. Then you get three M5 spacers and three M5 screws for the gantry bracket wheels. You also get a tensioner bracket right here with a tensioner pulley. You also get another M8 pulley. You also get the Z-Rod, the belt, and an all-metal dual Z bracket that already has the brass nut and the two M3 screws in there. So that's everything you get in the package. Let's get to the install. So the first thing we need to do is go ahead and make sure that your filament is removed from the machine. I just went ahead and cut mine. You can heat it up and pull it out as well if you want to do that. So make sure the filament's removed. We need to relocate our power supply here. I'm going to set mine on the desk next to it for now, but I'm also, during the first print, going to print the relocation file. And there's a bunch of files right on the page of the instructions on this. So you can actually go link them and you can print a file that moves this over for you and then it's attached still, but it's over here. For me today, I'm going to go ahead and remove these two screws with the Allen wrench that came with the kit. And then I'm going to set my power supply right on the side here. When you do take the power supply off, you want to make sure your X gantry is all the way up as well. Now go to your left gantry where we're going to add the new dual Z2 and we're going to remove these two wheels. To do that, there is a nut on the back.  Now we have these two wheels removed and I did use the small end of my double sided wrench to get those off. Please note that we are going to use everything again except for this bolt. Now what we're going to do is go ahead and remove these two bolts and that'll release the left carriage here right off the X gantry. Now you want to hold it when you get this last bolt because as soon as you do this is going to be free and it'll come off. Now that we have this plate removed, remove this wheel the same way you did the other two. Remember we're going to save all the parts except for the bolt. Something to note that this last wheel is the eccentric nut. Now what we're going to do is put this carriage back together. The first step in that would be putting our eccentric nut and wheel back on. What we need to do that is one of the longer bolts that came in the kit, one of the spacers that came in the kit, the existing eccentric nut, the wheel and the washer. So take your new bolt and put the washer on there. Then take this and push the bolt into the back side so it looks like that. Now if you look at it like this it kind of looks like a J and that's how we need it. So the eccentric nut is next and we're going to put the flange side in like this, then your wheel, then a spacer and then what we need is we need to take the other gantry and put it in the second hold down just like we did on the first one like that.  Tighten it in but not extremely tight right now because the wheel still needs to move and we want to put the other wheels in and get it straightened. So now I have it snug but not all the way tight and you can see this is what it looks like. A tab here for your new Z rod, your eccentric nut up here and what we're going to do next is reattach this to the frame. So take the piece we just put together and slide it right behind.  Now take the two bolts that came out of the frame originally to remove the frame piece and put them in. Something to note about these two bolts you want to get them snug but do not over tighten them. We're actually going to be adjusting the X gantry and you want to be able to do that a little bit with those bolts. Next thing you want to do is just slide that down just a hair like this on one side and we're going to reattach these two wheels and by moving that down a little bit it actually makes it easier to put the wheels in. Now we need to reinstall these two wheels. First we're going to start with the bolt then we're going to take the spacer that came with the printer then the wheel then the new spacer that came with the kit and we're going to do both wheels like that. So line that bolt up push the or line this bracket up slowly and then push your bolts through and we're going to take the last two lock washers and install them on this side. Take your wrench vice grips or whatever you're using for the lock washers and then your allen wrench and tighten these up but do not over tighten them these wheels still need to move and slide up and down. Now we want to look at the bracket and the X Gantry and just make sure they're flushed together and they're level here. If they're not that means your X Gantry actually could be crooked up or down so just make sure that when you put this together it's all flush and level. If you didn't have that go ahead and loosen these two bolts just a little bit make them flush and level and tighten those bolts back in. Next we want to adjust these two bolts right here just to assure that this is just a little loose so the Z rod can slide through it fine. Now when I got mine I noticed that the brass was actually on top which is upside down. I took it off I put the brass to the bottom and I put my screws back in. Now we're just going to take our allen wrench and it's tight right now and we're going to loosen it one full turn. You see how that's a little loose so the Z rod will travel through there. We might tighten that a half a turn later but right now I like that. Now pop the end cap off if you have one. Grab one of the bearing blocks here make sure your t-nuts are loose. Turn them so they're flush and flat and put them in. Now the bearing should be up in the top here. Take an allen wrench and spin those kind of quickly and those t-nuts should lock on. So I did not tighten it yet but it's in there and the t-nuts are locked in. Now with that bearing block installed what we want to do is go ahead and lower our x-gantry. So I'm going to go ahead and do it with my thumb here. We want to find something like this mini roll of filament here that I got with the Nr5 to put underneath the x-gantry because what we're going to do is loosen the top screw here of our grub screw and we're going to take the factory or the stock Z rod out and we're going to use it on this side. So what we need is something to hold your x-gantry from crashing and you want to be very careful because you don't want that to happen. Next loosen the top grub screw then remove the existing Z rod push it down through the bearing block that we just installed and then screw it down into this carriage right here. Now that it's pushed in what we want to do is make sure this bearing block is straight and your Z rod is straight up and down and tighten it in. It will hang over the edge just slightly when it's perfectly straight. Now grab the pulley that came with the kit and set it on top of that Z screw and lower your Z screw on this side just so it's flush with the top of your new pulley just about like that. Tighten the two grub screws in now we have the two grub screws tightened the Z rod here it's flush with the top of the pulley and that's going to hold it so it doesn't fall anymore. Something to note there is a grub screw locked right in here what it does is it keeps the bearing in the block if your bearing pushes out press it back in and go ahead and tighten this grub screw here. Now grab the other bearing block just like we did before and we're going to install it on the right side so pull that cap off the right side get your grub screws ready just like we did before slide them in use your allen wrench here to spin them kind of quickly and they'll lock themselves in it will overhang just a little bit like we did with the other one with this just a little loose take the new Z rod that came with the kit and push it down through now it should slide nicely you want to screw it down into the carriage here as long as it's straight as you see it'll actually slide right down make sure it's nice and bottomed out maybe raise your gantry up and then as you set it back down the Z rod will come down as you set it back down you'll hear it bottom out take your allen wrench tighten the top of the grub screw here and then double check the bottom to make sure that one's tight now take the other pulley and set it on top of the other lead screw and tighten in your grub screws just like we did before do not over tighten though you don't want to strip the pulley out now take the included belt make sure it is all untangled and straight and the teeth are on the inside and put it over these two pulleys so take the tensioner that came with it and install the two t nuts in and you want to make sure that the washer is on the top and we're going to set that in the extrusion here and uh we want to leave them loose right now so it should be roughly in the front in the in the center and it should face the front of the machine spin those in and and make sure that that now locks into place i'm just going to make sure that stays but i'm not going to tighten it too much and make sure that the pulley is facing the front of this machine so this is the front of machine now i removed my spool holder so you guys can see this throw your belt around that pulley just like this now you should have what looks like a triangle with your belt going around all three pulleys so i zoomed in a little bit and as you can see we have our triangle now this is your belt tensioner here and what we need to do is tension the belt um by pulling this forward and back so we're going to pull this forward so the belt as you tight as you can see here um not overly tight but tight enough just like any of the other belts there just make sure there's not a ton of slack in it once it's pulled tight and your belt is tight tighten down the two back bolts that hold it in here and you should be good now keep in mind i did take off the filament holder um it usually sits right here i'm going to put that back on um either over here over here if this is in the way you can actually slide it one way or another to get it out of the way of that filament holder if you want to use it next what we want to do is make sure that these are not binding and you can do that by moving this up and seeing how difficult it is now it's going to be a little bit harder or a little bit different because now you're you're pulling the uh the second z rod here but if you're if it's really too difficult and you're binding what we need to do is take your allen wrench go ahead loosen up the two screws in there and that'll adjust this here so i would suggest going all the way up and then all the way back down with this one at least loose i loosened them both and i went all the way up and then all the way back down and now i'm spinning very freely and very easily when i got that nice free motion i held the block in place and i tightened them in and that's how you stop the z wobble which was the next step now once you made sure your z wobble is gone with both of the screws you want to flip the printer back around and we need to check the level on the x gantry you can do this multiple ways you can print level blocks and there are some uh files in tim's instructions to do that if you want to we do the x gantry rework if you follow the steps in that i'll link it below everything should be dang near awesome for you now what i believe is what lou catfield teaches and what we need to do is just measure both sides and we're going to we need to actually level your x gantry to your frame not to your bed but to your frame and to do that we want to make sure both sides are within one millimeter of each other and just for the heck of it i would when i put this back together just doing this enough times if you watched any of my videos i was watching this so i'm going to go up to 80 millimeters on this side i'm going to click over here and i have right under 81 millimeters so i am i am dead close to being almost dead on so i have 80 millimeters here and if i come over here i have about 80 and a half it's it's so close to 80 right between 80 and 81 which is perfect because we only need a one we only want a one millimeter difference on both sides so you can follow hit tim's instructions with the leveling blocks if you want or you can use the x gantry rework is make sure your x gantry is perfectly level to the frame not to your bed but to the frame and when you're done if you have a ruler you want it within one millimeter on each side that's how you know you're good all right so that's it we have successfully installed the th3d dual z upgrade kit on my ender three once you get the z rods not binding spend some time and do that make sure they're not binding at all and that everything is nice and moves nice number two make sure that your x gantry is level print the leveling blocks before if you want um follow my x gantry rework from luke hatfield in the videos before either way just make sure it's level like i've talked about before next thing we need to talk about is the eccentric nut and this carriage on this side here um you need to make sure that that's rolling very nicely before you put it together i was following the steps and i'm going to make the recommendation to tim to throw it in the steps right before you attach it to the frame here i think we should put the wheels on and then check you know that it rolls nice and then attach it to your x gantry but what i did was i just adjusted the x gantry and tested the wheels so when you adjust them you should adjust it so all the wheels are tight um but not too tight and enough to turn it with your fingers still if they're too tight you can't turn it with your fingers that's way too tight you need to back them off a little bit if they're way too loose and they just spin that's too loose so just make sure the eccentric nut is good on this carriage and it's rolling nicely that's going to help everything travel much better now what we're going to do is turn it on and we're going to do an auto home just to see if everything's working okay and make sure it goes up and down by itself so we'll go to prepare auto home and we'll let it do its thing everything is going like it should the belt is turning and it's turning uh both sides of the gantry which is awesome and we've honed so that's pretty cool so everything is working as it should we've successfully installed the dual z upgrade kit like we talked about and i think we're good to go especially if you have the direct drive printer mods upgrade this is probably a really good thing to do just to give yourself a little bit of assurance on that uh the left side or if you're looking at the printer on the right side of that gantry so it's not going up and down by itself well i hope you learned something today and as always keep printing hey everybody let me know in the comments below what you think of this upgrade you like the video give me a thumbs up click that subscribe button below if you want to see more and then the bell right over here if you want to see the next great video that comes out we look forward to seeing you soon later


Hey everyone, welcome to alchemy star. So we're going to be doing a preview of the new aurean skills So we're starting off with Reinhardt. So as you see here, she is going to be lightning and a sniper class so a lot of people actually have been wondering what she is and Now we have her plus. She has 3503 attack, which is actually kind of high We're glad to have that. Let's move on to her skills So Illuminated finale cool down is three But it's a preemptive strike. So you don't Necessarily need to get copies of her initially So let's see what this does selects any four tiles someone's air Raid beacons that last for two rounds. Okay, that's a big damage then enters Finality state for two rounds. Okay. So while in the finality state Normal attacks extend to diagonal tiles. That's one. That's an additional Ability meanwhile combo skill deals an additional half of the current damage to the tile where the air raid Beacon is located and the four surrounding tiles. So if this is going to be applicable to any combo damage aside from From her This is going to be very good Because once she applies the air raid beacon Damage of everyone is going to be applied to this one. Okay, so Then when the dealing damage multiple times to some tile each of the following final damage is reduced by 20% So gains an additional of five finale regardless of the limit while in a Finality state. Okay. Next is the chain combo burst of illumination Three minimum three chain combos deals 140 damage to three nearest enemies with three surrounding clusters It expands to nine and four four nearest enemies within four surrounding clusters, but the 14 chain is going to be deal big damage at 160 to all enemies within the four surrounding cluster. So She's kind of a mix of a sniper plus again With AoE damage. So not really detonator. I was supposed to say detonator But she has she's a sniper with not only single target damage, but with multiple target damages Okay. Last is her equipment power of Lumina gains finale each finale increases attack by 3% Okay, so additional buff to everyone Thunder or Illumina Federation or Orients get 50% finale bonus based on their attack So the others will get 50% only based on their attack And what finale is gain one point of the end of the round up to 20 points while in the finality state gains an additional of five finale Regardless of the limit additional gain points will be cleared when the finality state is over So overall what I see with her kit.  I don't think so. She's OP at this point. So Will have to do a test on her whether she's going to be OP Moving forward. So next is going to be Barton Barton as you can see here has a Element change so you guys are not dreaming. He is now under forest class forest and His class is detonator. Okay attack is three five six three, which is also high so again for those who are you know are Frustrated with this. We don't have a choice. This is the direction of the developers to change him to forest class so um, I Forgot it's not I forgot to mention For this one just in case He's a detonator and But he has to he has a lot of competition here in terms of that slot. So first and foremost, we have hero Secondly, he can I think compete in the second slot for damage with aria with the new ones Lenore and And The other one is yeah, so I think he can compete for that slot for the second one or even the first That's let's try to see his skills. So active skill is a dual blade advent consumes 20 loan energy To enter loan state in the current round increasing chain combo range and damage So this is a buff for him at the end of the round If the remaining loan energy at the end of the round is no less than 10 Loan energy will be halved reducing at least 10 points and retain loan state in the next round loan energy When entering battle gains 20 points Barton I Can't see death blades. I was actually just looking at if this is an irate see death blades gain One point for every normal attack and gains immediate and five points immediately after using the active skill to enter the loan state Just want to go back to Here active skill. It's not a preemptive strike. So you'll have to get copies of him obviously to more or less make him, you know give him more potential in terms of in terms of Activating the buff to him, especially if you want to deal damage early on so going to his chain combo panthers prowl So it's a panther that he has so to chain normal state gains to loan energy and deals 160 damage to once-rounding cluster. This goes up to 8 and 13 and the damage also goes up Even if not on the loan state, but gains also increased loan energy loan energy is from 170 190 to 210 So again the active skill buff. I think he can really rival Arya with this active skill so Moving on to solitary courage normal attacks can target enemies in a diagonal file Diagonal tile While in loan state normal attacks deal damage to once-rounding cluster non-target tiles receive 40% of normal damage So this increases his AOE damage Splash damage and receives a percentage of the normal damage. So He is going to be good for mobs multi-tile bosses and he could really rival Arya for that second Detonator spot for Forest so let's move on to Vice so vice keen sight. So she is retained with water.  So I won't complain about that. So active skill target secured a cooldown is one It's a preemptive strike. So no need or copies over to have preemptive strike Selects and locks to one enemy and there can only be a maximum one target being locked at a time while the locked While the locked on target lives Vice keen sight chain combo will always target it. So chain combo damage will target That locked enemy if the selected enemies already locked on deals 100 damage to it once instead Okay, every stack of timeless mark on the target is increased increased damage by 5% addition So there is a mark we put on chain damage is one chain One chain damage deals 100 damage once to the nearest enemy for every three consecutive tiles And don't know yet what this means But I think for every three consecutive tiles She's going to deal one chain combo damage Probably the damage is not affected by the number of connected tiles Hmm interesting number of times a chain combo attack will always be one. Okay, so This will I just have to see this is the first time seen this and The equipment skill timeless insignia inflicts timeless mark on the lock target every stack of timeless mark increases the damage again Deals to the target by 2% Vice keen sight applies one additional stack of timeless mark on the lock on target for every 3% damage it the it deals to allies Okay, so Thomas mark inflicts one stack every time when Deals damage to a lock on target up to 99 stacks stacks are cleared after locking on another target This kit here her new kit is basically focused on one target before it was Random damages, but this one is specifically for one target with one tile So I think she's going to be good with single tile bosses and That is it. So All three of them vice you have Barton you have Reinhardt. I think are good Even even vice because you know, she's free These two Reinhardt she can be a good compliment to your existing team definitely for mine because I'm looking for a good sniper for Thunder and for Barton if you have a detonator And if you don't want to expand, I don't think he you will need him at this point unless if we deem him OP or he can substitute aria for that second slot for detonator But definitely all these three are going to be good. So just take your pick I'd go with Reinhardt for mine and I'll see you guys on the first anniversary of alchemy star So thank you very much for staying this far. So hopefully I have shed light on their kits with my reviews And if you have comments, please put them down. We'll discuss and thank you guys. Stay safe. Take care This is the warden and I'm out of here


or in chat if you would call the roll call? Just one second, Roberta. Are you guys ready at WSDS? Okay, so we'll call a roll call, Roberta. Older person, Wolfe? Here. Dave Soxie? Here. Steve Harrison? Here. Steve Harrison? Steve, you're muted. I am here. Dave Gass? James Owen? Here. Amy Horst? We have a full crew. Pledge allegiance, I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America and to the republic for which it stands, one nation under God, indivisible with liberty and justice for all. Thank you. Okay. Do we have any conflict of interest with what's on the agenda today? Hearing none, let us proceed. Minutes from the April 28, 2020 meeting has presented. Cheryl, entertain a motion to approve. Just stay there and to approve. And move and second it. Any discussion? Hearing none, all those in favor say aye. Roberta, Roberta, for those that are making motions, can you please state your name first so we know who it is? The motion made by Wolfe, seconded by Harrison. Thank you. Motion carries. Any opposed? Nope, motion carries. Thank you so much. Okay, we have a request by Angler Avenue to use the adjacent land to their current property. Ed, if you would give us the background, please. So Paul Roberts is in the council chambers with us. I'm gonna, he's actually at the podium. I'm gonna turn it over to him to explain his request and then we'll follow up with some discussion. Go ahead. Good morning. Anyways, the reason for our request is basically to provide more services to our customers throughout the summer with the social distancing. We've reduced our tables, we're at 50% now, inside and outside on the patios. And what we would like to do is experiment with a tiki bar atmosphere on the east side. We've contacted 10 companies and we've got the information we need there. We'd also be looking at utilizing all disposable cups and cans, nothing washable out in that area. We'd also be looking at some entertainment as funds are available and basically just a tiki bar atmosphere. So is, Chair, can I ask a question? Is it, so it's not very clear to me the timeline. So is the plan to put the tent up now and keep it up through September? Soon, well, as soon as we can, we've got to coordinate quite a few things yet. We wanna check with the city about some porta-potties because we've got limited facilities, especially with the construction going on to the east. I'm not even sure if those restrooms are open, but we still have a great deal of traffic in the area, especially with blue Harbor being opened up again. And we're one of the only places that people can stop to use the facilities.  Okay. Paul, this is Roberta. It is still not clear to me. You are intending to direct the tent and keep it on that property for the entire summer? Well, we're looking at like 90 days. We've checked with the tent companies and they'll do a 90 day rental with us. And we would take care of the lawn maintenance and any overseeing that would be required after use of the property to get back to where it was. Did that answer your question? It did. Okay. One other thing, we have heard proposals from you before. Typically, we see permission for the tent and the tent goes up and the tent comes down. And then the tent goes up and the tent comes down a couple of times this summer. Correct. This is a little bit different. So I would ask the committee their observations. I guess, Sheriff, I would have one question regarding the entertainment as is there any restrictions in terms of the neighborhood having concern about outdoor entertainment on a more permanent basis? I mean, the concept of a Tiki Bar I think is great from an entertainment point of view. However, there are residents right across the street. I mean, do we run into any issues or is that a non-issue? Can you discuss, Paul, what you think that hours of operation are gonna be? Well, the hours of operation, what we're looking at now is like three or four in the afternoon till about 10 o'clock at night. We don't wanna really be out there after 10. And if we have entertainment, say on a Friday or a Saturday, I believe we're limited to 11 o'clock. So on a Friday and Saturday, for sure, we would be done by 11. With any- So this would be a six day a week, seven day a week event? Correct. We're open six days a week right now, closed on Tuesdays, but we're hoping by July 1st, we'll be ramped up and ready to go seven days a week. But we've got additional staff to hire to make this work also. I don't know if you can- Yeah, David. This is something that really requires sort of a written agreement that spells out sort of hours of operation, types of entertainment. What happens if you violate the experience? I mean, this is, I think it's an interesting idea. It's definitely worth trying in this crazy time we're living in, but you really need something. You just can't approve this on a resolution. I mean, I think that something needs to be something that the city attorney's office prepares that kind of outlines the basic rules of conduct between the parties and what happens if someone violates that. That's just my thought. I think you need something more involved than just a resolution from the RDA and when something that's gonna go on for 90 to continue a phase. Roberta. Any other comments? Amy? Yeah, you know, my feeling is that it is such an extraordinary time and anything we can do to help with outdoor dining so that restaurants can stay viable and there's stuff to do in Sheboygan that is safe during the summer. I know from the arts center perspective we had to cancel our summer concerts and other things. So I think we should be as encouraging as possible. I do agree with Dave that perhaps we could, instead of looking at the normal event solution that we typically go through with hanglers, perhaps we look at a temporary rental of that property as it is a trial period. And, you know, they're thinking and have considered a more permanent solution. I think it was a great addition for the riverfront but perhaps it's a 90 day, you know, ground lease so that there are some more specific terms in order and that it's also fair for anybody else that's down there and they would come to us with really wanting to occupy a space for that amount of time. Okay, thank you, Amy. Roberta. You have to be introduced. Yes. Is Chuck Adams on the line? Thomas Cameron in. Thomas, I know that you're not on for this item but my question is, is that something that we could work with the attorney's office to get a draft of an agreement that we could bring back to this body? You know, I'm hearing a couple of different forms that they could possibly take but I think in general what I'm hearing is a desire to have sort of the rules and the expectations really clearly laid out. That's exactly what we're hearing. So let's do this. Let's send it to the city attorney's office, do a temporary ground lease and fill out exactly what the rules of engagement are basically for that property. I'd like to observe that in previous conversations with Anglers Avenue, they have been wanting to actually build a creepy bar on that area. So I think doing a three month trial given the current circumstances would be warranted. So let us take that back to the city attorney's office and follow if you would work with staff to pull that together. And then back to us, we can move forward with the discussion. Anybody else? Can I make a request, Bert? I'd like to make a recommendation. Okay. Bert? David, first, please. Bert, can you hear me? David, yes. Can you hear me? Okay. I'd like to make a recommendation. I'd like staff to be able to create this agreement, but in lieu of time here, we're already, what is today, it's 17th. I'd like to get permission and approval for them to go forward based on staff putting together this several page agreement. That's my recommendation.  Is that a motion, David? Yes, ma'am. I would second. Okay, there's maybe by David Stocksby, seconded by Amy Horst, that this goes to the city attorney to staff and they negotiate the rules prior to grant restrictions. Chad, is it reasonable to assume we could get this done next week? I would think so. I think that would really help an idea to Amy Horst. I think we need more of this offense and outdoors stuff for people and have things for them to do. Okay, any other discussions? We're like five minutes past. Is there anything else you need out of me? No, David. Sorry about that. I apologize, everybody. I gotta run. Okay, thank you. Okay, motion on the floor. All those in favor, say aye. Aye. Aye. Aye. Motion carried. Thank you so much. Okay, discussion and action on the loan related to the three twins. Is it for them? I think so. Is it for them? We're done? We have an upstanding loan with three twins. They are or have gone out of business. So we need to protect us about what's going on here. So if I can start out and then Thomas will fill in. So we made a loan to three twins ice cream back in October of 2013 for $120,000 and that loan was for equipment and purchase of the property at 816 Michigan Avenue. They have paid it down to a roughly $60,000. They had met all the job creation requirements and then when COVID hit, they made the decision to shutter the plan. So we had a note that was 3% for 10 years. It was subordinated personal guarantees and a mortgage on the property. So I'll turn it over to Thomas to give you guys an update as to where he is in the negotiations and what it looks like for us with the remaining 60,000. What happened to the voice? Thomas, this is Chad. I don't think he can even hear us. Thomas, can you hear me? Nope. The only thing that I could say is we dial back into the go-to, oh, Thomas, can you hear us? He's coming back a little bit. He's negotiating or in first position on the building. So he's just negotiating it from there, but they're a California company. So they're filing under California law and their bankruptcy laws are different, but it looks like there's enough equity for us to get paid back our portion. Now we lost him completely. Janet, you're gonna have to make up the notes. I was gonna say, this portion's gonna be hard to make minutes of. So we can't, so Roberta's asking a question and we can't even hear her. But how are we gonna do the rest of the agenda? The only other thing would be is to log in and get on in. Yeah, you wanna go down and get my laptop? We can pull it up on WSES. Shall we try disconnecting on here and reconnecting? That extension is not valid. I forgot to dial a nine, sorry. Well, they're all still doing their thing, so.

I mean, file the proof claim, but I wouldn't wait around. I'd approach and see what they have to say. Yes. David, would you like to put that in the form of a motion? I would move. I don't know if you need our approval to file a proof claim, but I mean, I would move that the approval claim be filed at a timely basis and all other actions be taken. It could be taken to within the legal proceeding, but also that we pursue the guarantor for payment on this guarantee, quote, quote. Personal guarantee. Right. Okay. Roberta. I've been moved by David Gaff and seconded by Todd Wolfe. Roberta. Any other discussions? Yes. So we lost some, we lost sound in this council chambers and heard none of the discussion. So can Dave, it's a proof of something in a timely basis, but we didn't hear that. What was the word? Proof of claim? I'll file a proof of claim. Okay. Proof of claim in the bankruptcy, but also approach the guarantor about payment on the guarantee immediately. Okay. We got that. Personal guarantee. Do you have that now? Yes, we do. All right. Any further discussions? Hearing none, all those in favor say aye. Aye. Are those opposed? Hearing none, portion carries. Thank you very much. And discussion on the old world creamery and their job requirements for their business development loan. You recall we have a couple of loans with them. Chad, you want to give us the background? Yeah, so we have two $500,000 notes with them. The second $500,000 note was executed, I think in May of 2016, maybe, or 2018, I don't have the numbers in front of me. But anyway, they were under that note. They were required to create 29 new positions with 51% of a meeting, the low to moderate income threshold. They have met that requirements and actually have a few more people on and have met 26 of the jobs meeting the low to moderate income threshold. So we're looking for approval from the committee to satisfy the job creation requirements for that loan. I'll entertain a motion to satisfy job requirements and try to appropriate that. I'll move. Todd Wolfe moved, is there a second? Second, Harrison. Steve Harrison seconded, okay. Any other discussions? Great, okay. All those in favor say aye. Motion carries. Roberta, if I can interject one other thing, you'll recall that loan required them to get a new sign and I don't know if you've been down Erie Avenue yet, but they have charged up their new Old World Creamery sign and taken the old one down. I saw that yesterday. Thank you very much, Old World Creamery. Okay, any other discussion? All right, updates and regarding the innovation district as you recall, this committee owns the redevelopment authority owns the property and we submitted a letter to the funding organization that we would sell the property to the FCEDC Foundation for a dollar and they would be able to use the value of that property as a match for the grant. Chad, you want to catch us up on that? Yes, so the grant was submitted last week, Tuesday or Wednesday. The building has had a number of gyrations through the process, but in the end, it's a 20,000 square foot building, 10,000 square feet per floor. The first floor is 5,000 square feet of Millport Sigma as a chemical lab and then some event and programming and a prototyping lab that would be operated by the EDC, but the technicalities of it would be through Lakeshore Technical College, so they would provide professional people to operate a prototyping lab for startup businesses. On the second floor is a combination of Sheboygan County Economic Development Corporation's offices, small business center offices, score offices, basically help for entrepreneurship, entrepreneurs looking for a place to get some counseling and stuff as well as some incubator space. So there's a number of small offices and a little bit larger size offices where you could rent a space and start up your business and kind of collaborate with other businesses and then there's a event programming space for the programming arm of the Innovation District. So the total project is about $6.1 million. They've asked EDA for $4.7 million and would end up financing the difference of the note and have gotten preliminary commitment from a bank to do so. So in the end, the application has, they were very successful in getting almost 200 and some new jobs to be created. I think it's 217 and new jobs to be created across the county as it relates to this project and then a retention of about 150 jobs and about $31 million in private investment. So we're optimistic that the EDA is gonna be on board with this. The EDA kind of advised us that they probably wouldn't approve a grant more than $5 million. So that's kind of been the kind of bringing the project down to a $6.1 million project. But all in, it looks like it's a fairly good opportunity with a great first start in the Innovation District. So if there's any questions, I'd be happy to answer them. Otherwise, we'll just wait and see what the timeline is for them to review it and get back to us with awards or questions or whatever. Do we have any idea of timeline? We do not. It's on a first come, first serve basis. So it's dependent on how many applications they've received. We were led to believe that they had at least five applications. Now this is an entire nation competitive process. So I think we got in early enough because they just announced it about a month ago, but we'll have to wait and see what their timeline is. Any other questions? I guess outside of this building, I don't know if this is relevant to the discussion right now, but has there been any developments as far as what the Innovation District is ultimately going to look like outside of this one building? Are there any conceptual developments or ideas that will make this an appealing draw for the city outside of an office building? So to answer your question, we've hired an architectural planning firm to help us lay that out, but we have put them on hold to see where this first building development goes and then to come back and look at the larger area and master plan it out once we know if this building is gonna be a go or not. So we've got money in our budget for parking improvements. We're talking about some shared potential like plaza areas that would be more of a public feel incorporated into the building. So yes, we haven't moved forward yet because we wanna make sure that we can see that there's a building that's coming and then the idea would be to try to energize a space around whatever happens ultimately in the building. Thank you for the question, okay. Any other questions? Hearing none, Chair will entertain a motion to adjourn. That's moved by Todd Cole, seconded by Amy. Are there any objections? Hearing none, all those in favor say aye. Aye. Aye. Aye. Or adjourned. Thank you.
