I said that somebody called and reported one of our plow drivers pushed a plate on top of a work zone on Portage at Lendon and that there's a big hole in the road now so I'll check with him if he caught something more advantage of.
00:22
I'm not aware of any plate at all.
00:26
So,
00:28
the only ones I do know of, and they should be off, is over at Everhard and Dressler.
00:35
There's no plate there, Troy.
00:39
Yeah, they were supposed to be gone yesterday.
00:42
All right.
00:44
I'll try to call him on his phone.
00:53
The case they should be still you.
00:58
Give me one second, Troy.

01:07
about hitting a plate.
01:09
I wish they would have known about it.
01:18

01:36

02:35
You can continue in non-emergent, please.
02:41
Check on that plate.
02:53
All right, I'm coming across 30, I'll jump on 77, head up there.
02:57
I'm sure they'll get their ear shortly.
03:01
Yeah, they were just turning around and going back and checking.
03:07
Female called 911 from near Waterbury Drive, stated they needed an ambulance, and then stated, never mind, and hung up.
03:29
How you doing?
03:30
Pretty good.
03:32

Yeah, oh bear.
03:53
This one. This one.
03:56
So the road comes first.
03:59

04:04
Copy all here, sir.
04:10
Between unknown and bed of your avenue northwest, Groton Street, Northwest.
04:20
Plates being on the road either.
04:21
This company wasn't supposed to be on Portage this soon,
04:25
and didn't anticipate it being till next week or so.
04:29
But regardless, that doesn't help us if there's plates out there.
04:32
Charlie's going in and making a call.
04:35
Ryan and Dan, please let me know if there's a hole in the road.
04:37
Eric, you're on your way up there.
04:39
We can make that secure until we get a plate back on there.
04:44
Yeah, we will.
04:45
We get a couple more minutes, and we'll be there.
04:47
We're coming up to Lakeland.
04:48
Springs here in a minute.
04:50
We're almost there.
04:52
This blend now that's halfway between Frank and Lake O' Springs, right?
04:58
Yes it is.
05:00
Copy that. Nope, we weren't aware, so I mean I apologize but we didn't know there's plate there either, so Charlie's not real happy with the company right now.
