0:00:55 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript It's currently a vacant lot.
0:00:57 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript This is in Council Ward.
0:00:58 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Number.

0:01:03 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript The applicant's statement is to build a gymnastic center,
0:01:06 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript and this gymnastic center is not permitted in C3, but it is permitted in C5.
0:01:12 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript This is the future land use opinion map,
0:01:15 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript and you can see that it is a corridor commercial color there.
0:01:21 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And here's the zoning map.
0:01:23 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript The majority of that area is either C3 or C5.
0:01:30 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript As you're pulling into Merchants on the right,
0:01:32 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript just past the furniture store, this is the property.
0:01:35 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript It does back up to 374.
0:01:41 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Obviously, it only has access to this road,
0:01:44 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript and that's looking back toward Wilmer Rudolph where the property ends across the street.
0:01:52 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript This is a demonstration of Wirecast.
0:01:56 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And back on the other side of the street looking in Merchants.
0:01:58 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript The department comments, a traffic assessment was required.
0:02:04 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript It was received by the street department and accepted.
0:02:08 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript They did ask for some lineage.
0:02:10 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript There was an improvement of site distances at the entryways,
0:02:12 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript and that was also accepted.
0:02:14 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript They did reserve a comment that improvements may be required at Merchants and Wilmer
0:02:18 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript during the site plan review.
0:02:23 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript The impact of this would be C5 zoning is intended to support a diverse mix of auto oriented commercial uses
0:02:30 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript and services in a broader range of commercial uses in the area.
0:02:34 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Staff does recommend approval.
0:02:36 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript The request is consistent with the overall goals and objectives of the Comprehensive Plan.
0:02:40 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript The proposed C5.
0:02:42 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Highway and Arterial Commercial District aligns with the corridor commercial
0:02:46 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript future land use designation of this parcel. The intersection
0:02:50 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript of Merchants Boulevard and Wilmer Rudolph Boulevard currently has some safety and traffic
0:02:54 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript flow concerns, particularly with northbound or left turn movements.
0:02:58 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Both current zoning and proposed zoning uses are similar traffic generators.
0:03:02 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Planning Commission also recommends approval. Thank you, Mr.
0:03:06 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Tyndall. Any comment or question from Council regarding this ordinance?
0:03:10 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript All right. We're ready for Item B, Ordinance
0:03:13 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript 79-2025-26. Mr. Tyndall.
0:03:16 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript This is Planning Commission Case Z17-2026, Application of
0:03:21 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Marvin Pitts. This is .85 acres, currently
0:03:25 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript zoned M2, General Industrial, and wishing to go to C5
0:03:28 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Highway and Arterial Commercial District. It's a parcel
0:03:32 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript located on the northern frontage of Craft Street, approximately 780
0:03:37 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript feet west of Craft Street and Collier.
0:03:39 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript The property is currently a tire shop in operation
0:03:44 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript on the property. The applicant statement is to make the current
0:03:48 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript business compliant with zoning and to conform with zoning in the general area.
0:03:52 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript This is in Council Ward No. 6 and the downtown urban core planning
0:03:56 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript area. Here's the future land use map. We have
0:04:00 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript commercial-industrial hybrid in the light blue, corridor commercial in the
0:04:03 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript orange. You have heavier industrial in the pink just above that, and it makes
0:04:08 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript use in the brown.
0:04:09 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript This is a little bit of everything going on near this intersection.
0:04:13 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And here's the current zoning. So as you'll see, the majority of these parcels out here
0:04:18 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript are still M2 zoned. This is the first industrial area of Clarksville as it was growing, and
0:04:24 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript many of the uses out here are non-conforming any more, such as this. Tire uses, auction
0:04:32 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript houses, other retail uses or wholesaling, which don't currently conform with the current
0:04:38 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript zoning ordinance. But having said that, I'm going to hand over to Mr. Tyndall to talk about this.
0:04:39 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript been there for quite a while. This is a demonstration of Wirecast. This is Craft Street and you're
0:04:44 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript looking I believe at the property. This is from the property looking across the street
0:04:51 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript looking back towards College Street the property on our left.
0:04:59 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript There is the property in question with the zoning so we're looking back from the other
0:05:03 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript side of the street that we were just on currently in operation as an attire supplier
0:05:09 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript and then that side of the street looking back. This is a demonstration of Wirecast.
0:05:19 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript The white sign is the property right there. All right department
0:05:29 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript comments. We did not receive any comments or concerns from other departments. This
0:05:34 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript would increase commercial development opportunities with a diversity of
0:05:39 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript auto-oriented commercial uses and remove the potential industrial uses from this
0:05:43 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript parcel. Staff does recommend approval. The request is consistent with
0:05:48 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript the
0:05:48 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript overall goals and objectives of the comprehensive plan. The proposed C-5 highway and arterial
0:05:53 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript district has usable frontage on an arterial highway SR-13 also known as Craft Street and
0:05:59 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript aligns with the commercial and industrial future land use designation for the area.
0:06:03 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript It should be noted that both C-5 highway and arterial district and M-1 again this is M-2
0:06:09 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript but M-1 light industrial both align with the commercial industrial hybrid
0:06:13 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript future land use designation for this area. Planning Commission also recommends for
0:06:18 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript an interoperability plan forolu.
0:06:18 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript For approval. Thank you Mr.WH pandal any comment or question regarding this
0:06:22 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript ordinance. just for the record I am not related to Mr. Marvin pits he probably
0:06:27 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript wouldn't climb me anyway. and I request no abrasion on digital,
0:06:29 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript All right we're ready for item C ordinance 82 2025 26 Mr. Tindale.
0:06:35 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Thank you mayor. Many Council members may remember this case a little about a year
0:06:40 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript ago.
0:06:42 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Z20 or Z26 from the Planning Commission application of Tonya Bosley agent
0:06:47 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript is Jason Harrington of the Franklin Square Partners this is 4.41 acres and
0:06:53 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript it's currently zoned r1 and requesting to go to c5 highway and arterial
0:06:57 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript commercial district it's a parcel located at the northwest corner of
0:07:01 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Rossview Road and Bosley Lane Bosley Lane is basically the road next to the
0:07:07 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript school there so that's the one of the entries to Rossview three school complex
0:07:13 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript right there it's a fairly large and level parcel with a single-family home
0:07:19 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript on site this is in council ward number 11 it's in the st. Bethlehem planning
0:07:23 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript area the applicant statement is for a retail and childcare facility again last
0:07:29 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript year there was a case for c2 which had Planning Commission and staff approval
0:07:34 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript and disapproved that City Council so there they attempted to come back as a
0:07:38 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript PUD that did not was not successful to get released to come back to the
0:07:41 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Planning Commission so they've waited the year and it's
0:07:44 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript coming back to the Planning Commission so they've waited the year and it's
0:07:44 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript coming back now here's the future land use map it was asked at the Planning
0:07:50 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Commission why and here's the zoning map first the c5 to the east there that
0:07:57 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript large chunk of c5 it's a little over five acres and this is about four acres
0:08:01 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript why that is in the mixed residential neighborhood well in 2023 and 22 when we
0:08:07 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript were going through the exercise to make the comprehensive plan before it was
0:08:10 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript adopted in early 24 that parcel was not zoned c5
0:08:14 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript at the time to the east it was c4 and we thought long term it would be better
0:08:18 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript suited for lighter commercial and apartments so that's why you'll see that
0:08:22 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript as mixed residential neighborhood and while that might feel a little out of
0:08:26 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript character now with the larger c5 to the east here's the property in question
0:08:34 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript looking at Rossview Road back towards the interstate and then back towards
0:08:40 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Dunbar Cave Road this is across the street and then looking into the
0:08:50 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript east to the site right here that house would be part of this request
0:08:57 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript department comments there's no gravity sewer available but it can be extended
0:09:02 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript at the applicant's expense the street department asked for an updated traffic
0:09:08 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript assessment to reflect c5 and it was reviewed and approved by the street
0:09:13 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript department the the school system has concerns beyond capacity so I will read
0:09:20 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript this since it does deal with access to the site as commercial sites are
0:09:24 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript developed near a
0:09:25 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript three-school campus vehicle congestion and increased pedestrian traffic safety
0:09:30 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript must be considered vehicles turning left from multiple access points on to Ross
0:09:34 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript View Road will directly impact traffic approaching exiting to and from the Ross
0:09:38 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript View campus during the school year currently traffic access to the Ross View
0:09:43 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript campus proves difficult with daily vehicle load counts traveling in and
0:09:47 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript around the vicinity of this proposed development this continued growth
0:09:50 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript necessitates additional action to address building capacity and school bus
0:09:54 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript transportation needs in the area of the Ross View Road.
0:09:55 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript This development should this development could add additional students I don't
0:10:02 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript know why they added that there that's c5 not c2 this time and require additional
0:10:06 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript infrastructure funding no connectivity will be granted to the campus roadway
0:10:10 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript infrastructure so we'll have it on drive on Ross View Road unless they happen to
0:10:14 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript work something out but it doesn't sound like they want to work something out.
0:10:23 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript The staff does recommend disapproval of this the request is not consistent with
0:10:28 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript the overall goals and objectives the proposed c5 highway and highway and the
0:10:31 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript arterial commercial zoning classification does not align with the future land use designation
0:10:36 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript of mixed residential neighborhood the c5 district permits a broad range of auto oriented commercial
0:10:42 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript uses many of which are incompatible with adjacent residential development patterns and the nearby
0:10:47 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript school planning commission recommends for approval thank you councilman streetman you recognized
0:10:53 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript thank you mayor mr tyndall i do want to clarify that this is somebody different that is planning
0:10:57 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript on doing it than had previously come before us as well as who had uh wanted to try and bring forward
0:11:04 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript a pud correct that is correct same property owner different applicant okay and um could you talk a
0:11:10 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript little bit about c5 i mean i know we've got c5 right there but they were very specific in what
0:11:15 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript they were planning on doing next door this one's a little bit more right in the front yard especially
0:11:20 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript of i think that's the elementary school right there am i correct uh that's the front of the
0:11:26 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript elementary uh field
0:11:27 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript and parking lot elementary schools to the northwest and the middle school to the northeast
0:11:32 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript right there the c5 to the east with the self-storage facility and the strip malls
0:11:38 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript that are there i believe that was c4 originally and the applicant said that they wanted to do
0:11:43 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript self-storage and those uses aren't allowed in c4 so they asked to go to c5 and i do believe staff
0:11:49 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript was against it but it did eventually pass because the applicant said well it's already commercial
0:11:52 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript i'm just making it a different type of commercial uh the reason this one
0:11:57 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript uh we're against it with the c5 you know c2 last time i think staff was in favor of it last time
0:12:03 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript because c2 is a little gentler it doesn't have as many larger uses not as many auto oriented uses
0:12:09 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript the applicant statement is a child care facility and general retail but as you know when the zoning
0:12:15 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript passes and that's what staff mostly looks at is what could it be eventually well and i know
0:12:21 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript at the regional planning commission we heard from the real estate agent um i don't recall hearing
0:12:27 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript from whoever it is that's planning on doing it whereas previously you know we heard from the
0:12:32 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript person planning on doing it their you know statement and i understand the concern of the
0:12:37 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript council that c2 would allow for it to uh have apartments there but i know he stood up there
0:12:43 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript but we haven't had we didn't have anybody come at the rpc that stood up and said this is exactly
0:12:47 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript what my plan is what i'm wanting to do and also i know with the pud when i talked with them and
0:12:53 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript they were going to try they'd asked you know for early is it a demonstration submittal
0:12:57 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript to be able to come back earlier with the pud it was going to be that pud was strictly going to be
0:13:01 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript a child care facility which i think would be beneficial but with c5 we're kind of opening up
0:13:07 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript a lot you know and heavy use right there in front of the school so i i was a no at the
0:13:14 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript regional planning commission and i'll be a no thursday night councilman brown you recognized
0:13:21 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript thank you mayor so they're willing to put some retail space up front and a daycare in the back
0:13:27 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript that's the way it sounds that's what they've indicated my issue with that is we're going to
0:13:33 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript have kids going in and out from a daycare and we've got retail stores right in front of them
0:13:39 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript you know probably coming through the same driveway
0:13:43 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript i just i don't think that's a good idea you know to have those those mixed there
0:13:50 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript just afraid for you know the kids safety out there with the traffic coming in and out of that
0:13:57 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript and uh you know just using that that same access for those two i just i don't i can't see it
0:14:05 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript being safe and it would just have one driveway okay you've got parents coming to drop kids off
0:14:13 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript and then businesses trying to run a business and you know kids jump out of the car to go inside but
0:14:21 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript other traffic there it just sounds like a disaster waiting to happen
0:14:30 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript okay councilman shekinah you're recognized thank you mayor um i'm actually for this
0:14:36 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript my reason is because on exit 8 i live off of exit 8 we already have a lot of rooftops and c2 and c4
0:14:45 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript permit apartments and the residents in that area don't want apartments there
0:14:51 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript this is a safe way to kind of offset that the people that live in this particular area
0:14:57 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript um have no place really to go to do anything commercial wise we have to go to
0:15:02 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript exit four or exit 11 to handle our business besides getting gas so i want to see some
0:15:10 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript commercial development off of frosty road thank you thank you mr tendell do you say just one
0:15:18 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript access point onto rosfee road from here yes they would either share a driveway or it would be one
0:15:23 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript parcel of two buildings or three buildings on it okay yeah due to the the length of the first road
0:15:28 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript frontage you can see the building to the east there also only has one and that's got more frontage
0:15:34 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Councilman Chandler you recognize me thank you mayor I'm sorry about being late on that my brain
0:15:39 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript freezes sometimes it's cold demonstration of why I don't like the idea of anything other than that
0:15:52 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript house is sitting there right now and the reason why it is go out there any given morning afternoon
0:16:02 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript especially when school is getting out we're talking about redesigning all that intersection
0:16:12 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript and then we're going to turn around in pollution of wire cast another group of business
0:16:22 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript trying to pull out go left or right the majority of the time my granddaughter
0:16:29 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript takes piano lessons at that church and even on Saturday we go out there for her
0:16:35 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript piano recital it's impossible to get out almost so you know there's plenty of
0:16:42 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript other places in town to put a daycare there's plenty of other places to put
0:16:47 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript you know what's going to be in the strip mall another nail salon another
0:16:53 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript tobacco store you know I'm totally against this Thank You mayor
0:17:00 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript councilman Streetman you recognize I forgot something I apologize with mr.
0:17:06 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Tyndall do you want to reference anything with the potential changes on
0:17:10 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript the zoning rewrite well not just the zoning rewrite but the Planning
0:17:14 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Commission last month
0:17:17 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript commissioners asked the planning staff to look at additional regulation on
0:17:20 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript tobacco and vape stores we are currently working on something we are probably
0:17:25 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript gonna wait a month or two but you'll get that here over the summer months and it
0:17:28 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript could coincide with the future use of the property like this but limiting
0:17:32 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript distance to schools would be very similar to the liquor store rules would
0:17:36 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript be in that ordinance and also with the zoning rewrite though and as well as in
0:17:41 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript there was a potential change as well as in the what we're working on is a

0:25:06 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript that 58 25 26. okay all right getting ready to talk about it anybody else on the consent agenda
0:25:13 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript all right mr smith councilman streetman you have the floor thank you mayor mr smith there
0:25:19 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript was some conversation a month ago regarding whether or not uh land would have to be purchased
0:25:26 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript not purchased there was there was just a lot said about that of course we the only opportunity we
0:25:31 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript have to talk to you is during executive sure um abracadabra uh we've got a quick presentation
0:25:37 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript a couple came in a couple of if you came to meet with me and said it made a whole lot more sense a
0:25:43 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript lot when you saw it on some of the the gis maps that mr emmer sonny worked so hard on so
0:25:47 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript i'll walk through some of this really quick my statements were that
0:25:51 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript obviously with this development road improvements would be necessary and that land acquisition was
0:25:55 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript probably likely as well uh and i think the applicant said that that was not correct so
0:26:00 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript we'll just walk through why we made those statements and uh and just give you a better
0:26:03 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript idea if you haven't been to the site this is seven mile ferry road uh the site in question
0:26:07 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript i'm gleaning from mr tyndall here is just up on the right so just a little bit past this just where
0:26:13 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript is the live wall in theçi shade and uh you see me forgot to bring more graphics for now
0:26:23 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript yeah so the roof is old but that will be the first thing that we do is we just
0:26:23 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript we just get bigger and we get bigger and larger the older the glass gets the shorter that the
0:26:25 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript the disc is and it fifty nine feet thick so that's how high thehhh the with that
0:26:35 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript roof is just set up to be at Baycliff that is all right
0:26:42 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript road construction that requires you to buy slope easement because you've changed the lay of the
0:26:46 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript land on that person's property so whether it's acquired and fee simple is right of way or
0:26:50 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript otherwise land would be needed in this circumstance again is there an injuring engineering way to to
0:26:56 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript do that without acquiring yes there's gravity walls retaining walls and storm water systems
0:27:00 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript and whatnot that drives the cost way up and traditionally in our community we don't see
0:27:03 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript developers go down that road again that's the ditch just to the side again it's probably a
0:27:07 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript little exaggerated but it is conveying storm water this is the property subject property to the left
0:27:11 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript you can see just based on the way the assessor has drawn this the existing asphalt profile
0:27:17 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript you know within a threshold looks to already cross what's established as right-of-way
0:27:23 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript so if we're widening this and you can see how the right-of-way tapers to this property
0:27:27 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript we only have 19 foot of right-of-way that exists across a third of this property
0:27:32 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript so there's really he'll be encroaching within his own property if he widens to that side but again
0:27:36 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript there's some other issues with that if he shoulders to the opposite side of the roadway this looks
0:27:40 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript super busy but these are
0:27:41 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript input contours
0:28:01 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript property this is as you head out to the residents concerned 16 and a half foot of existing asphalt
0:28:10 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript so we know if we wanted the left
0:28:11 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript side of this image we've got a ditch that's conveying storm water and we've
0:28:14 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript got a ski slope running uphill can't really wind to the right there's a
0:28:18 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript utility pole right there in the way so that pole has to be moved so there's
0:28:22 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript additional cost there's utility coordination those sorts of things and
0:28:26 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript here's the asphalt profile 16-foot you can see where would he likely widen that
0:28:30 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript where does he have the room to widen that and that's to the northeast to
0:28:34 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript wind to the northeast of the utility pole has to be moved so is there a way
0:28:37 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript to do this without buying property that's possible we will want to see
0:28:41 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript those engineering documents and whatnot it is more than likely I mean 90th
0:28:46 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript percentile that land acquisition is necessary to widen this roadway and be
0:28:50 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript legal so that's the science behind why the street bar made the comments that
0:28:54 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript when those road improvements come so that's the seven-mile ferry zone also it
0:29:02 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript was stated that the only way the improvements would be made
0:29:06 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript and
0:29:08 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript the only way the improvements would be made all the way up I believe it was to
0:29:10 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript pumping the pumping station road was if the rezoning was done otherwise it can
0:29:17 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript be developed as it is as our 140 homes and there would be no improvements made
0:29:22 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript along seven seven-mile ferry roads well so we're I think we're at you know the
0:29:27 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript zoning point of this when it gets to site planning subdivision that's when
0:29:31 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript all the departments come in formally and opine and we look at the actual impact
0:29:35 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript studies that you know what can the road handle
0:29:37 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript you know what is the span of that improvement and then we start to
0:29:40 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript analyze intersections what does the intersection of seven-mile ferry and
0:29:43 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript highway 12 look like is a signal warranted at that location then it
0:29:47 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript requires tdot involvement coordination as well so that we're really early in
0:29:50 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript this process and and we really don't make them start down that road until
0:29:54 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript they're a little bit farther along in your opinion would there still need to
0:30:00 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript be improvements made if it was our yeah I think so there are some moving parts
0:30:04 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript obviously I think that the applicant intends to purchase a parcel of the road
0:30:09 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript to the north but that's not what's before us obviously if he does that the
0:30:12 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript improvements would be mitigated significantly but at the flag connection
0:30:17 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript that they presently have you know at this point they're gonna have to widen
0:30:22 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript beyond just the boundaries of their parcel in order to convey traffic in and
0:30:26 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript out and what's the line if I remember correctly and I'm looking over to mr.
0:30:31 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Tindall and he can nod for me because I don't have it pull it in front of me
0:30:34 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript but I believe the traffic assessment was traditionally I had an act and he is nodding that that is the way I am.
0:30:39 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript correct what is the likelihood um that tdot would allow a light to go in there that's a good question
0:30:46 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript i can't speak to big brother but uh i mean we would certainly urge if that's the case if the
0:30:51 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript council votes this up and that's the proposal especially if the north of the site develops
0:30:55 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript as well that's going to be double or triple the amount of homes so i mean that that grade's going
0:31:00 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript to go you know from bad to worse all right that that answers my questions thank you sir okay
0:31:07 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript thank you any any other questions for mr smith wirecast okay thank you anyone else who wish to
0:31:15 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript be recognized on this councilman conch uh thank you mr mayor if i spoke out of turn pulling this
0:31:23 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript forgive me we knew what you meant yeah i appreciate it uh i will be a no on this
0:31:29 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript when we do vote if i can't pull it again you can't but i do i would i actually uh
0:31:36 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript implore that we
0:31:37 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript reread those emails they have increased significantly since the last time
0:31:41 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript as well as drive up there and and check out the topography the the atmosphere in that area it is
0:31:56 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript uh again the residents have said you know 40 houses does not bother them but you multiply
0:32:01 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript that by two and that's concerning conservation club is back there uh it's a different vibe
0:32:08 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript for the
0:32:08 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript that for the youth uh that's all i have sir okay thank you any other comment regarding
0:32:14 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript this item off the consent agenda all right we're now ready for the finance committee report

0:33:00 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript you recognize yes thank you ma'am um and i i spoke on this at the um finance committee meeting but for
0:33:08 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript For those who are not a part of the Finance Committee meeting, I would just like to do
0:33:12 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript a little background orientation first of all.
0:33:16 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript CPD has overall responsibility for parking in the city.
0:33:20 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript The demonstration of Wirecast.
0:33:23 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript The parking commission.
0:33:24 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript This is a heavy subject, so it's just a fuse blow.
0:33:34 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So the parking commission focused primarily on downtown.
0:33:40 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript You have one city council member on the parking commission, and the rest are individuals that
0:33:45 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript signed up for their services to render to the city.
0:33:48 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So they're part of this commission.
0:33:51 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So we have five individuals on it.
0:33:53 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript This is a demonstration of Wirecast.
0:33:54 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And I've been on it now for almost four years, three plus years.
0:33:58 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So my time on the parking commission, we look at a lot of issues that surrounds parking,
0:34:05 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript primarily downtown, but it goes beyond downtown.
0:34:08 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And we've been working to implement different rules for the parkers themselves, the businesses,
0:34:18 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript and then the residential entities, and again, city general.
0:34:23 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So since I've been on the commission, we've had three different chairs for this commission
0:34:30 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript addressing problems or concerns every month.
0:34:34 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript We also look at the parking tickets, the parking violations.
0:34:37 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript We look at the parking tickets.
0:34:40 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript We look at all those things.
0:34:41 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript We look at the way in, the way up, the how they're created, and then we have to weigh
0:34:43 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript in on those that do not accept the responsibility.
0:34:49 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So Park Mobile is always a big concern, the rates, the penalty for violating any type of
0:34:56 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript parking statute that's in place.
0:34:58 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript We look at all of that.
0:34:59 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript This is a demonstration of Wirecast.
0:35:00 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript In the April's meeting for the parking commission, I mentioned to the commission,
0:35:06 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript as a matter of fact, I raised the question.
0:35:07 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript What would it take to put in place a subsequent steps?
0:35:08 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript for us to decommission Department Commission because in my eyes there has
0:35:14 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript to be a better way to do this right there has to we need we need real
0:35:18 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript insight or oversight on this and we need fortunate functions to do this thing to
0:35:24 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript do it right to make it work for everyone and I said that's why we have a council
0:35:30 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript we pretty much have oversight on everything else why don't we have
0:35:33 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript oversight on this so I said I want to bring before the council so the entire
0:35:37 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript council can weigh in you know we can kind of you know make parking citywide
0:35:41 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript better today I look at where we are with the parking Commission some people may
0:35:52 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript say well it's a bad idea to decommission the Commission and turn it over to the
0:35:58 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript City Council but I argue that I don't think we need to wait we need to take
0:36:03 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript action when there's a problem if any of us bring a problem for the council then
0:36:07 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript we should take action.
0:36:07 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript collectively address the problem and try to figure out how to make it better
0:36:11 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript so what I think going forward with this with this proposed ordinance and when
0:36:18 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript you look at it you will see where the parking Commission had various duties
0:36:23 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript and responsibilities outlined starting on page seven of the item number here so
0:36:30 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript if you look on that you'll see where the parking Commission had all the duties
0:36:33 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript and responsibilities but again no real
0:36:37 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript forcing function right so we can't make anybody do anything even if if we was to
0:36:42 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript the parking authority give tickets the Commission we can't make anybody pay
0:36:48 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript right we can vote on it but we can't make them do anything and they don't
0:36:52 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript have to go to city court so again to me there has to be a better way than to keep
0:36:57 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript just doing the same thing over and over and over and the volunteers that are on
0:37:01 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript this Commission like I said they give their heart to working every month and
0:37:06 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript some of those meetings are three hours long so I'm go beyond that so we pretty
0:37:10 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript much working in vain so that's why I said it has to be a better way that's
0:37:14 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript what this is coming before the council to weigh in on it and a question was
0:37:18 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript posed about the debt all right the parking Commission since I've been on it
0:37:24 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I've heard and all the members of the Commission have heard that the city
0:37:28 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript garage is the parking Commission's problem all right so we have to pay that
0:37:32 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript and the parking Commission argues every month
0:37:35 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript that's not our problem that's the city's problem the City Council voted on that
0:37:40 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript and and I'm on the council and I'm on the Commission and I tell the Commission
0:37:44 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript that is the City Council it should be the City Council problem because the
0:37:48 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript City Council's won't vote on the budget so all of that to say that this is why I
0:37:54 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript think there's a need for this to be in an ordinance and CPD already controls
0:38:02 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript parking for the entire city they need to control it for the entire city by the
0:38:05 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript because they have a forcing function.
0:38:07 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript City court has a forcing function, not the commission.
0:38:11 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So to me, the commission, while it's good,
0:38:14 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I admire the people that give their time on it,
0:38:18 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript but there has to be a better way, and I think this is the better way.
0:38:23 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Councilman Brown, you recognize for a question or comment?
0:38:26 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Thank you, Mayor.
0:38:26 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So I just have a couple concerns with this,
0:38:29 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript is if we move these civilian employees under the police department,
0:38:35 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I don't think they can write tickets to city court
0:38:37 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript because they don't have the authority to do that
0:38:41 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript without changing the statute.
0:38:44 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I know building codes can, the police department can as officers,
0:38:49 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript but that's just something else we need to look at
0:38:52 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript to make sure that we have that correct in there.
0:38:57 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Another issue I have is we're wanting to put this under the police department.
0:39:02 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I don't have a problem with disbanding it, moving it.
0:39:05 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript But our police chief already has the police department,
0:39:08 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript over 400 employees.
0:39:11 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript He oversees dispatch that does the dispatch for the police and fire,
0:39:16 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript and we're wanting to give him another assignment
0:39:19 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript to add in to what he's responsible for.
0:39:23 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript This is a demonstration of wiretap.
0:39:26 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Should he get extra pay for having to oversee another,
0:39:29 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript what was another agency that's going to fall under him now?
0:39:34 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript No.
0:39:36 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And another thing is this did not go to the public safety committee,
0:39:40 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript which has police department, building codes, fire department.
0:39:46 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So those are some of my concerns,
0:39:49 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript and I'll be asking for a deferral next month
0:39:51 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript so it can go to the public safety committee for review also.
0:39:56 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript This is a demonstration of wiretap.
0:39:58 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Okay, well, I'm glad you didn't add another concern
0:39:59 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript because I have to try to keep track of all the stuff you're saying,
0:40:02 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript so give me one at a time.
0:40:03 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I understand.
0:40:04 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I understand.
0:40:05 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Right now, CPD is in charge of parking citywide,
0:40:08 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript so this is not really adding more to their responsibility.
0:40:12 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript They're already in charge of it.
0:40:13 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript They have a forcing function.
0:40:15 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript The personnel that are working right now parking,
0:40:17 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript those personnel will go to CPD.
0:40:20 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript They're already trained in parking.
0:40:21 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript They will get the other requirements that they need to have,
0:40:24 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript and those conversations have already taken place over the past month with CPD.
0:40:28 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So it's not a burden on CPD to do something that CPD is already pretty much doing.
0:40:34 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript They already have the authority to do that,
0:40:35 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript but the parking commission itself, again,
0:40:38 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript you've got three or four people that are giving out tickets,
0:40:41 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript but they can't enforce it.
0:40:43 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Right.
0:40:44 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript They just can't do it.
0:40:45 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And the commission itself has oversight over parking, over that department.
0:40:50 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So the department head can't even make the rules.
0:40:53 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript The commission will make the rules,
0:40:56 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript which in how much sense does that make to me, right?
0:41:00 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript The city council should be making these rules.
0:41:02 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript This is a demonstration of wiretap.
0:41:05 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Did I answer both of your questions?
0:41:05 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Both of your questions.
0:41:05 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Yes, sir.
0:41:06 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I don't have a problem with, you know, moving away from the parking commission.
0:41:10 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript You know, my big thing is I think it should come to the public safety committee for review also,
0:41:15 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript and then, you know, those other issues,
0:41:18 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript because the police department right now cannot write parking authority tickets,
0:41:22 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript which if we do away with that authority, then we've got officers.
0:41:28 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript We're down, you know, 40 to 50 officers,
0:41:32 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript and assigning this to them also to go.
0:41:35 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I don't think that we're taking people off the road to go write a parking ticket.
0:41:44 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Well, number one, you're not taking anyone off the road.
0:41:47 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And number two, this is not just downtown.
0:41:49 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Right.
0:41:50 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript But right now, the parking commission only focuses on downtown.
0:41:54 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Right.
0:41:54 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript We're not big enough to do anything else, right?
0:41:56 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript That's a headache in itself, and we're not effective at that.
0:41:59 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So how are we going to do something somewhere beyond that, right?
0:42:01 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript We can't even do things beyond, you know, Austin Peay.
0:42:05 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript That's an example, right?
0:42:06 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So you're not taking anything from CPD.
0:42:09 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript This is a demonstration of wiretap.
0:42:11 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And personnel are going to go to CPD.
0:42:13 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So the personnel right now that are getting paid to do this,
0:42:15 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript they're going to be under CPD.
0:42:18 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So they're going to have the manpower to do it.
0:42:21 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript All right.
0:42:22 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript But this stuff will also go to city court, which right now it doesn't go to.
0:42:26 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So it's more than just CPD.
0:42:28 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript It's more than just about CPD and the parking commission.
0:42:33 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript We're talking about citywide.
0:42:34 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript What are the rules?
0:42:35 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And who regulate the rules for citywide parking, right?
0:42:38 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I get calls all the time about, can we get this vehicle towed?
0:42:42 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript This is a demonstration of wirecast.
0:42:44 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Who has the authority to do that, right?
0:42:46 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So when you look at this ordinance, it covers everything parking citywide.
0:42:50 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So that's why I said you have to look beyond downtown parking.
0:42:53 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript That's a part of the commission, and that's been a big focus of the commission.
0:42:57 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript But in my, and not just my opinion, right, because I've been on this commission
0:43:01 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript from my time on this commission, that's been a failed part.
0:43:04 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript That's been a failed part of the commission.
0:43:09 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Councilman Lovato, you're recognized.
0:43:11 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Thank you, Mayor.
0:43:12 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript First, I do agree with some of the concerns from Ward 9.
0:43:17 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript But my concern right now is I don't believe this governing body can send something like this
0:43:25 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript back to a committee for consideration.
0:43:31 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I think that in previous situations it's been a violation of the First Amendment right.
0:43:36 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So I just wanted to.
0:43:37 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I just wanted to clarify that for.
0:43:39 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Yeah, he can make a motion to postpone for a month and ask that it go, but can't require it.
0:43:44 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Okay, that's all.
0:43:45 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Thank you.
0:43:47 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Councilman Streetman, you're recognized.
0:43:48 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Thank you, Mayor.
0:43:49 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I appreciate the councilman from Ward 11 working on this.
0:43:54 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I will say that I'm likely going to be in favor of postponement or deferral for another month
0:44:01 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript just because I myself would like to dig a little bit more into this.
0:44:06 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I'm kind of.
0:44:07 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I've heard some pros and cons on both, and I'd like to see if there's any changes that might need to be made.
0:44:14 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And again, I appreciate all the work you've done on it.
0:44:17 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript There's a huge amount that you put into this, and I'm grateful for that and grateful for your time on the commission.
0:44:22 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript But I'd love to see if there's some way we could look at, you know, maybe some potential changes.
0:44:27 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I think it's still great to have that parking authority to be able to give input.
0:44:31 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript But I also know that when we get complaints, there's you know, we can't we don't write the rules.
0:44:36 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So it's not.
0:44:37 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Us that's able to do it.
0:44:38 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So I think it'd be great if there's a way for one to be able to find a middle ground there.
0:44:43 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Plus, I want to find out a little bit more in regard to what the council member from Ward nine said in regard to the police department.
0:44:52 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Look at, you know, maybe what other communities are doing, whether it should be the police department, whether in case there's just a lot more.
0:44:58 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript This is a this is a big change and again, a lot of work that you put in.
0:45:01 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript But I'd like to be able to dig in and do a little bit more work on it myself.
0:45:07 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript All right.
0:45:08 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript She can sponsor.
0:45:09 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Yes.
0:45:10 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Talking about what other communities are doing.
0:45:12 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Nashville, Metro Nashville, they have forty five police officers that handles downtown parking right to enforce it.
0:45:19 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And they also have a nonprofit that also offsets that because forty five is not enough.
0:45:23 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript All right.
0:45:24 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript How many officers do we have that enforces downtown parking?
0:45:27 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript This is from a situation of wire cast.
0:45:33 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I can tell you that we do need to address parking in our city.
0:45:36 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I mean, it's it's out of hand.
0:45:38 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript People parking on sidewalks.
0:45:40 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Parking in front.
0:45:40 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript In front of fire hydrants.
0:45:41 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript They're parking in front of mailboxes, driveways.
0:45:44 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript We get it constantly.
0:45:46 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And this will streamline and simplify the parking in our city and make one department responsible instead of it having two heads.
0:45:56 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And and while it has functioned okay, it is not functioning to the benefit of the citizens.
0:46:03 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And we need to change it.
0:46:05 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So I want to commend the sponsor of the ordinance for bringing it forward.
0:46:09 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Councilman Chandler, you're recognized on this ordinance.
0:46:11 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I think we're talking about two different things.
0:46:22 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript If I'm not mistaken, there's already code on the book about parking and blocking sidewalks, handicapped fire lanes, and things like that.
0:46:39 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Where I'm getting confused is.
0:46:43 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript We're lumping that in with parking downtown.
0:46:50 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And to be honest with you about it, we all know that charging to park downtown is to make money.
0:46:57 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript End of story.
0:47:03 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I'm like Councilman Brown.
0:47:05 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript The police department has the authority already to take care of things that aren't downtown, including downtown.
0:47:14 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Parking on the sidewalk, they can give you a ticket.
0:47:17 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript If you're parking handicapped, they can give you a ticket.
0:47:19 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript If you're parked in the fire lane, they can give you a ticket.
0:47:25 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I'm not knocking the police department, but I mean, we see it all over town.
0:47:31 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And there's no tickets being written.
0:47:35 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript On my way here tonight, coming through a housing area, there's a tractor trailer truck parking the wrong side of the road.
0:47:40 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript This is a demonstration of wire cast.
0:47:44 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So.
0:47:46 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Yeah, I think we need to sit down and look at it from all aspects.
0:47:50 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript But I just don't see how worrying about downtown parking, why we have to change.
0:48:02 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Because if it's something that's in the code, the police department will go ahead and do it.
0:48:09 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript That's all.
0:48:10 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Thank you, Mayor.
0:48:10 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Thank you.
0:48:11 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Where we're confused is we have also had that two-headed monster.
0:48:13 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript We've had the parking commission and the parking staff.
0:48:16 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So we just need to simplify things.
0:48:18 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Exactly.
0:48:19 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Okay.
0:48:20 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Councilman, Councilman Shekinah, be recognized.
0:48:23 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Yes.
0:48:23 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I would like to address Councilman from workforce concerns.
0:48:27 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript When you said that, you know, parking is designed to make money, the parking downtown.
0:48:34 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript But the parking commission is over that, not the parking department for the city.
0:48:40 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript The parking commission sets the rates.
0:48:43 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript They determine whether it's free parking for how many hours, how long.
0:48:46 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript This is a demonstration of wire cast.
0:48:46 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript The parking commission does all of that.
0:48:48 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Right.
0:48:49 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And my thing is that should not be part of the parking commission.
0:48:56 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Then the enforcement part.
0:48:57 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And then when you talk about, you know, who grades those tickets, the parking commission grades those tickets.
0:49:03 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Right.
0:49:03 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript We vote every month on those violations.
0:49:06 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Some months we may have 50 or 60 violations, sometimes 100.
0:49:10 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And that's why we're there for three hours.
0:49:13 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Right.
0:49:14 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript But should it be the parking commission that's doing that?
0:49:18 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Because the debt of the city should not be the debt of the parking commission.
0:49:23 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Because the parking commission didn't come up with this idea about a garage or anything else.
0:49:30 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So, again, the CPD already has authority.
0:49:34 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript You're right.
0:49:34 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript They have authority over parking over the entire city.
0:49:38 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So if they have authority over the entire city, then let them be in charge of parking
0:49:43 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript over the entire city.
0:49:49 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Councilman Clonch, you're recognized.
0:49:51 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript All right.
0:49:51 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Thank you, Mayor.
0:49:51 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript This is a demonstration of wire cast.
0:49:55 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I would like to express my agreeance with Councilmember from Ward 11.
0:49:59 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript There's too many hands in the cookie jar.
0:50:00 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Streamlining the process.
0:50:02 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Removing the what-ifs and the have-nots and putting it under one organization that's already
0:50:09 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript kind of doing the work.
0:50:10 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript As well as many conversations with that department head about the complexities of the citizens
0:50:16 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript and these boards.
0:50:17 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And, you know, I think it's a great opportunity.
0:50:18 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And one week they want to do this, and the next week they want to do this.
0:50:20 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And then three-hour meetings, it's malarkey.
0:50:25 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript This is a demonstration of wire cast.
0:50:28 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Is that a legislative term, malarkey?
0:50:29 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript We can add that to the course.
0:50:31 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Okay.
0:50:31 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript We'll adopt that.
0:50:32 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript All right.
0:50:32 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Thank you.
0:50:33 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Councilman Brown, you're recognized.
0:50:34 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Thank you, Mayor.
0:50:35 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I have a question maybe Chief Burdine might be able to answer.
0:50:38 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And then I have a question for the attorney's office.
0:50:41 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Okay.
0:50:43 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Without objection, come on up, Chief Burdine.
0:50:53 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Then we'll put it to a vote.
0:50:55 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript All right.
0:50:56 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript You have the floor, Councilman.
0:50:58 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Chief Burdine.
0:50:59 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript This is a demonstration of wire cast.
0:51:00 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I know one big difference.
0:51:01 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I just want to make sure that I am understanding this.
0:51:04 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Right now the parking authority, they can write a parking ticket and leave it on the
0:51:08 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript card and keep going.
0:51:09 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Yes.
0:51:10 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript For your officers to write a ticket, do they have to have an operator or the owner of the
0:51:16 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript vehicle there to issue the citation?
0:51:18 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I think what we could do is not have them there.
0:51:23 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript We just have to have a system in place to where due process is handled, to where they
0:51:28 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript get notified of the charges and when and where to be at the four city court is what would
0:51:34 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript have to be done.
0:51:34 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And they can use, of course, the way we can gain access to tags to find the owner of the
0:51:42 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript vehicle to issue citation.
0:51:44 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript All right.
0:51:45 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And then you're battling with a person saying, well, I wasn't driving it at the time.
0:51:50 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Correct.
0:51:51 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript That could come.
0:51:51 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript That could come.
0:51:53 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript That could come.
0:51:53 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript During court, yes.
0:51:54 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Okay.
0:51:55 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Thank you.
0:51:56 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Thank you, Chief.
0:51:58 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Question for the attorney's office.
0:52:00 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Okay.
0:52:01 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Mr. Johnston.
0:52:04 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript This is a demonstration of Wirecast.
0:52:08 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Hope I do have this good a job.
0:52:11 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So my question would be, who, I don't know if you know offhand or you may need to find
0:52:16 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript out for us, but who can actually write city court citations?
0:52:21 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So there is.
0:52:22 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript It would be under TCA, excuse me, it's TCA 763-101.
0:52:29 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript It does allow for certain departments within the city to be able to write citations to
0:52:34 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript city court.
0:52:35 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript You can do the police department, the fire department, building codes and transit 42
0:52:39 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript have been authorized by state statute to write those codes.
0:52:43 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript There's an attorney general's opinion out there that says while all these people are
0:52:46 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript authorized to do these, to do these citations, the departments are better handling their
0:52:52 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript own code sections.
0:52:53 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So we have a fire code that we cite to, and we have a building code that we cite to.
0:52:59 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript That attorney general's opinion does suggest that like those, those departments are best
0:53:03 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript left, legally best left to their own departments and their own codes.
0:53:07 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So that's probably why you're seeing the police department is being authorized to do this
0:53:11 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript as opposed to fire department or building a code to transit.
0:53:17 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And also, sorry, did the, the, the, the state statute further authorize, states, states,
0:53:22 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript states that those in the fire department and in the building codes department would
0:53:26 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript have to be authorized as like special police officers.
0:53:28 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So it would be even further than just being a part of building accounts.
0:53:31 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And that was my concern is, you know, if we move these employees under a certain, whatever
0:53:38 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript department it is, would they have to be reclassified as to meet the, like an officer, you know,
0:53:47 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript would the something have to change in their classification to be able to do that?
0:53:52 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Or would they have to be able to write those citations?
0:53:54 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript They would have to be police officers.
0:53:56 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So they'd have to be a police officer to write a parking ticket.
0:53:59 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Correct.
0:54:00 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Do other state statutes that correlate with the, the writing of the citation?
0:54:04 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Yes.
0:54:05 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So those employees that currently are out there writing tickets, if they moved over
0:54:10 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript to the police permit, they'd have to become police officers.
0:54:13 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Correct.
0:54:14 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I would say they'd have to go to the academy, you know, is a demonstration of those tickets
0:54:20 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript to be a police officer.
0:54:24 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript They would have to, well, I mean, to be able to write police as, as police officers potentially,
0:54:31 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript but for that you would have other authorizations, you'd have to have other action to get building
0:54:37 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript codes employees and fire department employees to do that as well.
0:54:41 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So they wouldn't have to go to the academy.
0:54:43 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript They just have to be classified as a certain level to be able to write.
0:54:48 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I would fall back on that attorney general's opinion that says it's best to leave them
0:54:53 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript legally.
0:54:53 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript It's legally best to leave them within their own confines of their department building
0:54:57 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript codes.
0:54:58 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I mean, there's, I'm probably preaching to the choir, but there's all sorts of things
0:55:02 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript that building codes deal with in terms of search warrants, property, you know, trash,
0:55:07 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript trash codes and stuff like that that's, you know, better suited and their fire code has
0:55:11 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript their own things, sprinklers, yada, yada, building specifications and stuff like that.
0:55:15 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So they could fall under building codes, wouldn't have to be a police officer, but we would
0:55:20 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript have to write that into the code that that's.
0:55:23 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript This is a.
0:55:23 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript This is a.
0:55:23 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript This is a.
0:55:24 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript You know, they be over.
0:55:24 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I would say yes.
0:55:26 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Thank you.
0:55:28 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Councilman Haywood for Mr Johnston.
0:55:30 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Yes Sir.
0:55:30 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Yeah, I recognize.
0:55:31 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Thank you, Mayor.
0:55:32 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Could the police department not just make a sub division like they've got dispatchers
0:55:37 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript and they've got.
0:55:38 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Could they not do that?
0:55:42 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript There's other statutes about being able to cite people for misdemeanors which the city
0:55:49 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript officers can do is just misdemeanors and so our city, not city officers, their city court
0:55:53 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript can handle and stuff like that.
0:55:54 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Yeah, I don't.
0:55:56 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I don't know that you would be able to, necessarily.
0:55:57 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript This is an illustration of a wire cast.
0:55:59 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript But, again, probably something I can look into
0:56:01 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript and make sure I have a better answer next time around.
0:56:03 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Okay.
0:56:03 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Thank you.
0:56:05 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Councilman Streetman for Mr. Johnston.
0:56:06 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I'm not sure if it's going to be for him or actually for Building and Codes.
0:56:11 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript What?
0:56:12 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I'm not really sure which one.
0:56:14 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Go ahead and ask it, and they'll fight over it.
0:56:16 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I know that any time there's a Building and Codes violation
0:56:20 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript in order for them to cite it,
0:56:23 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript you have to give them written notice.
0:56:27 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I think that's a Building and Codes question by default, Mr. Crosby.
0:56:31 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And they have a certain amount of time to correct it.
0:56:36 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And I don't know.
0:56:37 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Maybe that has to do, I'm just knowing from dealing it with building issues,
0:56:41 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript not so much a parked car.
0:56:44 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Right.
0:56:44 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript When we cite folks, we have to give them, I think, 14 days to come correct
0:56:50 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript before we can take further action.
0:56:53 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So if they go under your department and they are parking there for six hours
0:56:59 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript and they're only supposed to be there two hours or whatever it might be.
0:57:02 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript This is a demonstration of Wirecast.
0:57:05 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript They have 14 days to move before you can actually do anything?
0:57:09 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I'm not exactly sure where the parking authority's rules lie.
0:57:11 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I don't know if it's in city code or in the zoning ordinance.
0:57:13 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript The things that we cite folks for come out of either city code or the zoning ordinance.
0:57:19 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript If parking is completely separate from that, whatever their rules say,
0:57:23 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I guess would apply.
0:57:26 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So if this got moved under your department and these individuals worked for you,
0:57:31 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript then they would be able to go ahead and write a ticket for them?
0:57:36 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript That I'm not sure.
0:57:37 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So a building code officer now couldn't go write a parking ticket, to my knowledge,
0:57:42 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript in the way that parking tickets are written today.
0:57:45 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript We don't cite people in that way for parking.
0:57:47 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript A code violation would be parking on the grass, not for an expired meter or anything like that.
0:57:53 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So it's completely different, and I'm not sure what those differences are.
0:57:58 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Okay.
0:57:59 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Thank you.
0:57:59 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I appreciate it.
0:58:02 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Councilman Clonch, you're recognized.
0:58:03 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Thank you, Mr. Mayor.
0:58:05 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I just wanted to say we've spent a lot of time talking about this, and that's awesome.
0:58:09 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So compound that to what the council member for Ward 11 had to deal with,
0:58:16 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript with a council of civilians, downtown business owners.
0:58:20 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript The irony is not lost on me.
0:58:22 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript That's all.
0:58:23 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Thank you.
0:58:23 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Councilman Shekinah?
0:58:24 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript You're recognized.
0:58:25 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Yes, Mayor.
0:58:26 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I want to again address Councilman from number nine.
0:58:30 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript When you talk about CPD writing tickets, they have a forcing function
0:58:34 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript because they have the city court behind them.
0:58:37 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Individuals go to city court.
0:58:38 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Right now when the parking personnel write the tickets,
0:58:42 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript they come before the parking commission.
0:58:44 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript The parking commission doesn't have a forcing function.
0:58:47 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript We can say we're going to void the tickets, and then that's good.
0:58:52 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript But if we say no action and they pay,
0:58:54 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript then that's fine, but if they don't pay, there's no recourse to it.
0:58:59 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So, again, you have an entity that makes rules,
0:59:04 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript but they have nothing behind them to enforce the rules.
0:59:09 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So that's why I said it's lost.
0:59:10 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript That's why I said it needs to come before this body, and this body needs to really look at this
0:59:15 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript because we do have a problem.
0:59:16 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And it's going to get worse.
0:59:21 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Thank you.
0:59:22 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Any more comment or questions regarding this ordinance, Chairman Streetman?
0:59:25 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript You're recognized.
0:59:26 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Thank you.
0:59:26 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Thank you, Mayor.
0:59:27 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Without objection, because I know we've spent a good amount of time talking on this one,
0:59:31 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript and we could spend a good amount of time talking on others,
0:59:33 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript would it be possible to move up Resolution 652526 to go ahead and deal with that one
0:59:42 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript and then come back to the others?
0:59:43 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Any objection to that, you're recognized on Resolution 65.
0:59:49 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Resolution 652526, a resolution of the City Council of the City of Clarksville, Tennessee,
0:59:55 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript approving an economic impact plan.
0:59:56 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript For the St. Thomas Hospital Development Area and adopting designated area policies and procedures,
1:00:04 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript the Finance Committee voted in favor of approval.
1:00:07 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And, Mayor, without objection, could we bring Ms. Wilson up to be able to talk about it?
1:00:14 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I know she spoke about it at the Finance Committee.
1:00:16 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Any objection?
1:00:17 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Ms. Wilson?
1:00:21 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Demonstration of Wirecast.
1:00:25 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Good evening, Mayor, City Council.
1:00:27 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Thank you, Finance Chair.
1:00:31 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript like to give you a little background on the project. We heard about this about a year ago
1:00:35 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript at the Certificate of Need process last year when the hospital was approved. It is a 44-bed
1:00:44 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript project right off of Exit 11, the Boyd Farm. It's about 96 acres. It is adjacent to the Vanderbilt
1:00:52 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript standalone emergency room across the street from TOA, Tennessee Orthopedic Alliance,
1:00:57 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript right off Exit 11. Give you a little background information about where it's located. And so
1:01:03 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript really this transformative project, it's roughly about $418 million in development
1:01:10 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript of the project plant. I did send a map over to the clerk. I don't know if you have that, but
1:01:18 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript that will show you the shaded parcels are all of those that are taxable,
1:01:23 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript except the 33 acres to the far west. That is
1:01:27 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript not programmed at the moment. But all the others are programmed and taxable and therefore would
1:01:33 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript create an increment for the TIF. And so the applicant today is asking for a maximum of
1:01:41 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript $12 million and some change. The project will actually create $15 million of increment,
1:01:47 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript therefore leaving beyond the debt service that's covered through the city and county from the
1:01:52 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript allocation leaving about 24 percent left for the city and the county to-
1:01:57 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript To the wire.
1:01:58 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript What they, to their general fund or what have you. And so the reason the TIF is actually
1:02:04 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript being requested, again, you've got another handout that talks about the extraordinary
1:02:10 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript infrastructure upgrades that have to happen. And so if we're talking about just the hospital,
1:02:15 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript the infrastructure is there to complete that. But again, they're trying to bring
1:02:19 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript really top level health care to our town and our county. And with that, they are requesting some,
1:02:27 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript some help with that. You'll see everything is outlined, you know, from the new road
1:02:39 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript infrastructures. And not only will it support the project, but it'll also support the surrounding
1:02:44 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript area. You know, sewer mains, gas mains, duct banks, electric vaults, road widening, traffic
1:02:50 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript signal, and a new road. So those are all of the infrastructure upgrades that they're requesting,
1:02:56 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript which is about $12 million, excuse me, $27,900.
1:03:02 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript This is a demonstration of Wirecast.
1:03:05 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript As a reminder, the TIF is really, it's a performance-based incentive. If they don't
1:03:09 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript develop, there's no risk to the city or the county. That's zero risk. So again, but for the
1:03:15 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript development, the TIF and the increment is not created. If, I know this body annexed that property
1:03:22 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript into the city last year or earlier this year. As it stands, if it's just the hospital, zero taxes
1:03:29 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript will be collected by the city. And so, you know, it's a performance-based incentive.
1:03:31 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And the county will also have a reduction in what the city, what the taxes they collected
1:03:35 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript last year.
1:03:36 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript This is a demonstration of Wirecast.
1:03:37 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So again, if you, if just the hospital is built, zero taxes will be collected by the
1:03:41 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript city and the county. If you approve the TIF, you'll have the other funds that will be created
1:03:47 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript to do what you will with the city to help it run. And lastly, you've also got a one-page
1:03:55 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript summary of the financial analysis of what that means, one-time benefit, along with the
1:04:01 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript benefit over 20 years of what the project will create. And so again, we believe we showed up in
1:04:07 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript droves as a community to support the project at the state level and stand before you to ask for the
1:04:13 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript support for the enactment of the plan. Happy to answer any questions.
1:04:19 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Questions for Ms. Wilson regarding Resolution 65. Councilman Brown, you're recognized.
1:04:23 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Thank you, Mayor. So prior to this project, of course, it was not in the city. So the city
1:04:29 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript received zero property taxes.
1:04:31 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So because of this project, we've annexed it in at their request also to provide the
1:04:38 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript services. So looking at your chart here, sales tax estimated $705,000. Property taxes for
1:04:50 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript the city, $413,000. That's after the TIF. So me looking at it, we went from zero income
1:05:01 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript to $413,000 on property taxes if we do this TIF.
1:05:05 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Yes, sir.
1:05:05 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And then in the long run, that TIF will go away.
1:05:08 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Yes.
1:05:09 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So, you know, to me, I'm looking at it as we had zero, and this is going to actually have
1:05:16 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript some support of the city finances to assist in other projects as well.
1:05:23 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Yes, sir. And you'll also be paying, while the TIF is being distributed, debt service will be met.
1:05:30 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Yes, sir. And you'll also be paying, while the TIF is being distributed, debt service will be met.
1:05:31 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So no matter what that changes to each year, that'll be met. So that'll help with, you know,
1:05:36 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript the management of the finances for the city. Yes, sir.
1:05:40 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Thank you.
1:05:41 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Yes.
1:05:41 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Yeah, the debt service for the city comes off the top.
1:05:43 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Yes.
1:05:44 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Any other questions for Ms. Wilson?
1:05:46 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript All right. Thank you.
1:05:48 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Thank you.
1:05:49 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Chairman Streetman.
1:05:49 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Thank you, Mayor.
1:05:52 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Ordinance 76-20-25-26, first reading. An ordinance amending Part 2 Code of Ordinances
1:06:00 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Title 1.5 Human Resources, Chapter 6, Leave, Section 1.5-601, Annual Leave, 1.5-602, 6 Leave,
1:06:11 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Section 1.5-603, Bereavement Leave, Section 1.5-604, Maternity Leave, Chapter 7, Benefits,
1:06:22 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Section 1.5-702, Eligibility for Health and Dental Insurance Benefits, Section 1.5-707,
1:06:30 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Break-7.
1:06:30 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript and Credited Service, Chapter 12, Disability, Section 1.5-1202, Non-Work-Related Disability,
1:06:38 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript and Chapter 15, Miscellaneous, Section 1.5-1501, Holidays, for the purpose of providing additional
1:06:46 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript annual leave benefits for municipal employees to enhance recruitment and retention.
1:06:52 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript The Finance Committee voted in favor of approval.
1:06:55 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And, Mayor, would you mind if Ms. Luntz came up to talk about this and the reasoning behind
1:07:00 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript this?
1:07:00 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Probably ought to.
1:07:03 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Ms. Luntz?
1:07:04 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I think she should have to read that all again as well.
1:07:07 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Well, we'll skip to just the explanation part.
1:07:11 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript All right.
1:07:12 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Yeah, it was a mouthful, and I apologize for that.
1:07:15 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So, this ordinance amends the HR section of the City Code, specifically two major changes
1:07:22 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript within it, one of which is annual leave.
1:07:24 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript The first proposed change would allow employees to begin earning additional annual leave after
1:07:28 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript three years of service instead of ten, as it currently stands.
1:07:32 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript The recommendation came based off of an employee benefits survey feedback we received back
1:07:37 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript in the fall, where earlier leave accrual increases were a frequent request within the survey.
1:07:43 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript We also continue to see a high number of employee separations between the three- and the five-year
1:07:48 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript range.
1:07:49 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript For reference, in FY 2025, we saw 17.5% of separations within the three to five years.
1:07:57 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript We believe this could serve as a retention tool.
1:08:00 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript This change also brings us more.
1:08:02 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript We believe the change will be in line with comparable employers, such as county, state
1:08:04 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript government, and Austin Peay.
1:08:06 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript There's no change to the current payout or carryover structure, so we anticipate very
1:08:11 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript little to no financial impact overall.
1:08:14 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript When it comes to the holiday amendment within the City Code, our proposed change adds Good
1:08:20 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Friday as an official city-paid holiday.
1:08:22 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript The recommendation brings the city in alignment with the county, CMCSS, Fort Campbell, and
1:08:27 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript many child care providers who all recognize Good Friday as a holiday.
1:08:31 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript This is a change that will be in line with the current payout or carryover structure,
1:08:32 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript which means it is not the annual ce nail what we actually see on the City Code.
1:08:32 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript This, too, was based on the feedback from our employee benefit survey.
1:08:34 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript We reviewed leave usage and found approximately 12% of our City general employees utilized
1:08:40 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript annual leave for Good Friday this past year.
1:08:43 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript This requires the departments to function on limited staffing while still trying to
1:08:47 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript maintain operational coverage.
1:08:49 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript As far as financial impact, it is not a clear-cut answer.
1:08:53 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Employee salaries are already budgeted as fixed line items, so what we would really
1:08:57 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript be looking at is overtime.
1:08:59 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript While some departments require minimum payment, the agencies cannot支imoor provide payment
1:09:02 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript staffing um requiring minimum staffing could experience some overtime costs based on a gas
1:09:07 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript pipeline exploding or something to that effect i wouldn't expect um this sorry sorry
1:09:17 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript i looked directly at him i was trying to figure out what an emergency would be and relate it but
1:09:23 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript how about anyway on a sidewalk okay let's say a sidewalk um anyway these departments generally
1:09:28 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript stagger on call and they uh they utilize their holidays and staffing schedules operationally so
1:09:36 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript like i said we can't put a monetary amount on what this is going to affect the city
1:09:40 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript based on over time but it's very minimal the remaining changes within this within these uh
1:09:47 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript code revisions are primarily housekeeping clarification updates based on experience
1:09:52 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript and administration of the policies over time the revisions help modernize terminology improve
1:09:57 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript clarity and better
1:09:58 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript align the language with current practices while not significantly changing the intent of the
1:10:02 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript existing policies all of these proposed changes would go into effect january 1st 2027. okay
1:10:13 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript questions for ms luntz councilman chairman streetman others have questions i'm going to
1:10:18 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript let them go ahead first councilman chandler you recognized okay under the bereavement league
1:10:24 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript i've got just a slight problem with that is and that being that uh
1:10:32 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript i don't like the idea of a department being in this the department of human services are
1:10:37 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript developing maintain a policy pertaining to bereavement leave and may amend from time to time
1:10:43 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript by the department this is a demonstration anytime that there's an amendment made to
1:10:52 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript the benefits to our
1:10:54 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript our employees it needs a little more than just keeping it within that department the existing
1:11:02 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript policy already states that the hr director and the mayor can amend this policy from time to time
1:11:09 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript and again my opinion is that given too much authority to be able to go in and change your
1:11:17 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript you know you're asking us to vote on it this is a demonstration but then you're saying we can't
1:11:22 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript change it
1:11:23 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript that
1:11:24 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript you can change it and not come back before the board doesn't make sense that you want us to
1:11:30 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript vote on it and approve it and then but then not have any further say so and i haven't read all
1:11:40 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript this completely but like i said i just have a problem that's what council the mayor and department
1:11:47 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript is it's all checks and balances thank you mayor thank you councilman peters you're recognized
1:11:52 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript the demonstration thank you mr mayor
1:11:56 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript this is my question because in business that's what i do right
1:12:01 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript i don't know how you can say this does not have a cost to it
1:12:05 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript if if i give employees where i work a holiday pay and they don't work it i still got to pay them that
1:12:12 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript so when you refer to people like the police department fire department first responders
1:12:18 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript there's a benefit to that right so you're going to have to pay them whether they're
1:12:22 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript on the clock or not because it's a whole other matter but yeah even the hr sari report i'm also
1:12:24 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript holiday so i don't know how we can say that's not a wire cast not a cost because that's completely
1:12:30 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript opposite of anything i've ever learned i don't see how we can say that legitimately i think it's
1:12:36 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript going to be a cost to the city and and it's just it's there i don't know how we can say that it's
1:12:43 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript not i just don't get that but for that reason i i'm a firm no on this i'm just going to let
1:12:47 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript everybody know now i'm a firm no on this i don't think we need additional holidays i don't think
1:12:53 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript we need to i just don't think we need to give a good friday i don't get a good friday this nobody
1:12:59 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript else gets a good friday of wirecast let them take a vacation day that's the way i feel about that
1:13:04 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript but that's all i got to say on that councilman streetman you're recognized thank you and mine's
1:13:09 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript not so much a question and you heard me say this at finance and i will say lead off again thank
1:13:14 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript you for everything you've done you're the representative for all of our city employees
1:13:18 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript and i know you put a lot of work into this and talking with the employees and retention is an
1:13:22 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript issue because
1:13:23 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript because when employees leave it's more costly to replace them undoubtedly understand that um my
1:13:29 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript my one issue that that sticks with me is the same thing that was stated by the ward three i know
1:13:35 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript we've discussed before you know adding holidays and i understand it's a state holiday and the
1:13:39 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript state gets off schools are closed the county is closed however i i mean i've never been off
1:13:46 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript on good friday myself it's a not a federal holiday so even in my former life as a banker
1:13:53 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript we still worked as i joked in the finance committee we spent all day answering the phone
1:13:56 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript answering that yes we are open um but i i do know that there's a cost associated regardless
1:14:03 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript with giving yet another vacation day and i know that's something that the taxpayers and
1:14:08 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript stuff look at of how many holidays that you know government employees already get so that's the
1:14:15 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript only issue id take with it again respect all of your work and understand where you're coming from
1:14:20 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript and why you were trying to come up with creative ways and what's looking to come up and what do you want to give those employees and that's the kind of sort of level you know Jussie's comment on the one hand all body time handover but we've gotta keep it together and our next challenge does is eliminating the cost associated with nagyonl
1:14:23 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript ways to increase our retention of our employees that isn't necessarily just get paying more
1:14:30 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript money that type of thing so i do thank you for that councilman holloman you recognize
1:14:35 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript thank you mayor just the way i see it is like i mean i couldn't tell you last time i had
1:14:39 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript a good friday off either but uh i i typically work like you know between six and seven seven
1:14:46 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript days a week so i typically don't get too many too many holidays off or anything like that
1:14:50 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript but the the difference is is the city employees are under us and and from my perspective it's
1:14:57 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript like i i would want to give that uh holiday to them if it if it means that much to them
1:15:02 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript and i know it does to a to a lot of city employees and so like you know i've said in the past
1:15:08 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript um regarding the the holiday this is a demonstration of always back to the city employees so thank
1:15:15 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript you thank you councilman streetman thank you mayor i'm sorry and i forgot a part of that
1:15:20 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript i got carried away saying thank you and only thinking about the cost um regarding having
1:15:25 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript another holiday but as was mentioned it's also you know that i mentioned in finance
1:15:30 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript that's another day that our citizens are unable to take advantage of our city services whether
1:15:36 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript it's something that they need to go to finance for trying to get a city business license
1:15:40 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript you know a lot of people's time is limited in what they're trying to do and not being
1:15:45 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript able to go to any of those departments and be able to conduct the business they need
1:15:50 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript to conduct to me that's also a cost that we're looking at there so that's it that's all i
1:15:55 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript have thank you thank you miss lutz anything else nothing for the dad all right thank you
1:16:00 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript chairman streetman ordinance 77 20 25 26 first reading and ordinance authorizing the
1:16:09 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript receipt of donated real property located at zero jack miller boulevard for the purpose
1:16:15 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript of a housing development both the finance and neighborhood and community services committees
1:16:20 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript voted in favor of approval
1:16:22 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript of this this is just an accepting of property that we could potentially utilize home funds
1:16:29 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript in order to be able to develop some affordable housing on um it's not costing us anything
1:16:36 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript to be able to get the land they would be giving us that and again this would be home funds
1:16:40 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript that are designated to us from the federal government to allow for these types of developments
1:16:48 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript questions about ordinance 77.
1:16:50 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript councilman lovato you recognize
1:16:52 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript there um i understand that home funds is going to be utilized but i understand that that
1:16:59 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript is a grant that we must match can either our cfo or um i'm so sorry uh just austin uh elaborate
1:17:09 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript on what that looks like financially for the city sure we'll call on the subject matter
1:17:13 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript expert ms austin
1:17:17 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript thank you mayor um so for home funds we do have to match it um we do have to match it
1:17:22 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript up to we have to match 25 percent of the funds that we use and typically it's an afterthought
1:17:28 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript because those are usually subsidized by the work we do in other areas so um often it's
1:17:35 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript the the work that we do towards home projects that are paid for through our salaries from
1:17:41 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript the general fund and again it's only up to 25 of that the cost of that project in this
1:17:47 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript case because the property is donated and it appraises at 400 000 we'll be able to use that
1:17:52 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript appraisal um the called the appraised cost of the property to offset the home funds um match in that
1:18:00 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript case okay so we should not see any dollars from our general fund going no man's one nope that's
1:18:09 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript all i have councilman claudge you recognized all right thank you mr mayor hey ms austin how are you
1:18:15 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript i'm great how are you i'm well you know i'm a nerd so i just recently learned about the
1:18:19 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript opportunity zone 1.0 and okay
1:18:22 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript about to go to the 2.0 does this property fall into either of those categories um so notably
1:18:30 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript this is a new census track this does fall into that um eligible census track for
1:18:37 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript opportunity zone 2.0 that being said because it's a city property it's paid for through home funds
1:18:43 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript and the work that we're doing i don't think we would necessarily need that offset cost for but
1:18:49 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript if this were to prompt some development on the adjacent property that's currently vacant um the
1:18:57 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript the oz 2.0 could help spur that development okay so administration of the wire is not
1:19:05 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript clarksville monies if federal funds completely thank you ma'am you're welcome thank you any
1:19:11 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript more comment or question thank you thank you chairman street thank you mayor resolution 66
1:19:17 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript 2025
1:19:19 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript a resolution amending the fund balance policy to reduce the minimum
1:19:24 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript unassigned fund balance from 20 of general fund expenditures to 17 of general fund expenditures
1:19:33 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript the finance committee did recommend a vote in favor of approval of this i the sponsor of this
1:19:40 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript resolution and this is going to as it exactly as it says it's going to reduce our need to keep our
1:19:47 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript or have the
1:19:49 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript unassigned fund balance of 20 down to 17
1:19:51 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript i did as one of the questions that was asked in finance i did work with miss wilcox on this and
1:19:59 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript verify that this would not affect our credit rating but the benefit of this is that it would
1:20:05 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript potentially help us to be able to reduce our need of the tax dollar to go from the the 31 cents that
1:20:14 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript we don't know what it'll be in the final because we'll be receiving that tomorrow but it would look
1:20:19 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript at uh potentially being approximately a six percent reduction i'm sorry six cent six cent i
1:20:25 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript said that wrong six cent reduction in our need for our tax rates councilman zacharias you're recognized
1:20:33 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript thank you mayor um if if it's okay with with uh the chair and the the sponsor i would uh ask if
1:20:41 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript maybe uh christian wilcox could come up and ask or and respond to a question
1:20:49 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript any objection ms wilcox councilman zacharias thank you mayor um so when when we spoke about
1:20:58 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript this previously i thought i had a good understanding of of how that fund balance is
1:21:03 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript retained um and i understand that this would lead to a decrease in the uh tax rate possible
1:21:13 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript decrease in the tax rate being requested uh with this year's budget um can you uh elaborate a little
1:21:21 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript bit on how it would affect future years budgets let me clear up a little bit about the fund
1:21:30 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript balance policy it is a um very good financial policy to have there are standards and this going
1:21:40 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript to 17 percent will not violate any of those standards of best practices however i've heard
1:21:46 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript a lot of confusion going on about that fund balance policy um there are classifications
1:21:54 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript within that there's restricted non-spendable committed and then there's unassigned
1:22:01 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript it is a cap snapshot of what it is as of our fiscal year june 30th
1:22:10 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript it includes our cash investments and other assets it is not money that we take at year
1:22:19 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript end which i believe last year was around 45 million and sit in a separate bank account
1:22:25 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript and leave
1:22:26 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript untouched because it includes our cash investments and other assets it is a measurement as of one day
1:22:36 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript it is it fluctuates between throughout the year it goes up when we receive revenues it goes down
1:22:42 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript when we when we have to pay bills payroll any of our invoices things like that so
1:22:51 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript the city also does not receive significant property tax revenues until december
1:22:58 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript so at june 30th it needs to be significant enough to cover our expenses till we start receiving
1:23:05 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript those revenues it is not money that is set over in its separate account and untouched
1:23:12 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript unless there's an emergency or a natural disaster i think that's where the confusion might come in
1:23:23 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript um i cannot bring you a bank statement that will show you that there is a just for you to know that
1:23:36 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript it's not money that has been collected but all of it that was collected in the last year
1:24:02 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript besides the fact that the growth rate is 20 percent it's a little bit about the economic
1:24:02 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript years ago it had been at 22 percent the council reduced it down to 20 and i think that from
1:24:09 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript talking to the pre previous person that sat in my seat the intent then had been to in a few more
1:24:16 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript years bring it on down to either 18 or 17 percent however you had turnover on the council and then
1:24:23 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript covid came along and no one was going to do anything there however and i know that the
1:24:30 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript previous cfo was not interested when other council members had brought this up and to be
1:24:35 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript able to reduce it down however this is a time where obviously we are in need it's not as though
1:24:42 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript it's not something that couldn't be increased back up in a few years while yes this is a permanent
1:24:46 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript change should uh future councils choose to bring it back up that is something they would be able to
1:24:52 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript do but by passing this resolution now it's able to benefit us not only for this fiscal year end
1:25:00 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript that we're fixing to come up on at the end of next month but also in our budgeting for next year
1:25:05 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript and i know this is something that other council members in previous years have talked about
1:25:10 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript wanting to look at in order to be able to help us with what we were trying to do
1:25:14 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript when it comes to budgeting so i i appreciate that you have worked with me on it and explained it to
1:25:20 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript me in detail we've spent a lot of time talking about it and started talking about this a few
1:25:24 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript months ago so thank you very much for all of your help with this welcome
1:25:30 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript zacharias thank you mayor um and i just want to say i i absolutely think that this is a tool that
1:25:36 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript we should be considering as we go into a very difficult budget year um i just want to make
1:25:41 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript sure that as as we consider it we are considering the effects next year in the year after in the
1:25:48 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript year after so we're not making decisions that are convenient now and then we end up regretting later
1:25:55 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript that's all i'm trying to get some more information
1:25:59 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript councilman
1:26:00 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript you recognize um thank you mayor i i personally i i like this um for the position that we're in
1:26:06 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript it's um we're we're in a sticky situation that that's for sure
1:26:10 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript um as far as the need for doing this it's just something i gotta get off my chest you know like
1:26:18 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript i've been up here about seven and a half years now and for five years of that we've been pro-growth
1:26:23 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript pro-growth pro-growth uh growth is good it brings prosperity everyone gets more money when in the
1:26:29 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript fact is the the opposite happens uh housing goes up food prices go up you know it's a it's a supply
1:26:36 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript and demand and now we've got this this tax this tax crunch because we've grown we've had such an
1:26:41 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript unmitigated growth that we've grown to the point where we're we're in the financial situation that
1:26:47 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript we are because we can't keep up with roads we don't have enough police officers on the streets
1:26:51 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript and so i i am i am in favor of this it's just begrudgingly in favor i guess is the
1:26:59 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript is the right word because i just feel like i i i feel like the some of the things that that i
1:27:06 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript that i used to my my personal stance um for the past years has been pro-growth and this is a
1:27:11 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript direct the final financial crunch that we're in is a direct result of clarksville being so pro-growth
1:27:18 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript for so many years that's all thank you thank you any more comment or question thank you ms wilcox

1:28:42 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript um if we're going to be fiscal responsible in one area then we should do it in all areas
1:28:48 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript of city government and that's my closing mayor all right thank you you're recognized for your
1:28:53 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript committee report neighborhood and community services all right um i just want to give a kudos

1:30:04 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript name you have five minutes hello everyone you guys know me i'm dr gregory fryer i'm coming to you
1:30:09 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript regarding the uh senior uh ajax senior center as you know
1:30:16 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript we are mandated to leave as of june 30th we started packing up we let people know start getting their
1:30:22 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript personal belongings and effect out of the building so that when packing packers come they're not going
1:30:27 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript to be confused or anything a number of people are concerned the members like you know what can we do
1:30:32 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript because they've lost their sense of community uh as far as you guys know that uh just the other day
1:30:39 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript the parks and rec director uh said that if it goes through the parks and rec it will be free and that
1:30:45 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I think from the age, if they're younger than a certain thing, they'll be $5, the rest will be free.
1:30:52 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Right now, the fee for a year annual is $35.
1:30:57 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript However, what's left out of that is that some people are not able to afford it.
1:31:02 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So it is prorated based on those people's income.
1:31:05 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript It's prorated.
1:31:06 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript The other thing is what's left out, I looked at St. Clair, which is the senior center down in Murfreesboro,
1:31:14 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript and they are under Parks and Rec as well.
1:31:17 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Looking at their structure, it's free, but guess what?
1:31:22 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript They have to pay for every little thing that goes on.
1:31:24 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript They have to pay.
1:31:25 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So it's kind of like, you know, you get this ticket to Disney World, and you pay one ticket,
1:31:29 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript and you enjoy all those magical rides, and it's wonderful.
1:31:33 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Versus when you go to the county fair, you're paying just as much, but every ride you have to shell out.
1:31:38 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript You have to shell out.
1:31:39 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So that's the difference.
1:31:40 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript That's one of the differences we want to look at.
1:31:42 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript The other thing I want to bring to your attention,
1:31:44 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript is that the fire marshal came again to inspect the building today, and it failed again.
1:31:49 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript It's been that history.
1:31:52 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So we talk about fiscal responsibility under Parks and Rec.
1:31:57 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript The budget is going to increase.
1:31:58 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript It's going to be an increased tax burden.
1:32:00 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript If we're going to be fiscally responsible for our taxpayers,
1:32:04 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript we need to take a look at keeping it under the nonprofit.
1:32:08 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Thank you, y'all, very much.
1:32:10 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Any other member of the public wish to address the council?
1:32:12 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript If you would, give us your name, and you have five minutes.
1:32:17 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript This is a demonstration of Wirecast.
1:32:18 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Billy Lang, [address omitted; hear it in the video at this time].
1:32:20 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Thank y'all.
1:32:22 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I've wanted to speak on this for a while.
1:32:24 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript My mom ran the senior center for seven years.
1:32:28 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I know I've watched everything online when it came down to the senior center.
1:32:32 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Me living in that home through high school when my mom was over the senior center.
1:32:41 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript When members run to the mayor,
1:32:43 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript and they're not going to be able to get out of the house,
1:32:44 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript and they complain.
1:32:45 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I used to hear them complaints whenever they came back to the director,
1:32:49 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript because my mom was the director.
1:32:50 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript This is a demonstration of Wirecast.
1:32:52 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript When I watched a lot of that online of some of the back and forth
1:32:57 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript with the members that were on the board,
1:33:02 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript and they really didn't give good clarification.
1:33:04 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I can remember my mom being in that same situation.
1:33:08 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Travis Holland, his mom, I don't know if I'm allowed to call him by his name,
1:33:12 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript but his mom done so much work.
1:33:14 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript She's done so much at the senior center in volunteer work as far as fundraising.
1:33:18 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I go to that senior center with our community.
1:33:22 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript We don't go every day, but we do go because they do provide a service.
1:33:26 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I'm not totally against what the city is doing in this situation.
1:33:30 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript If it's going to make a resolution to the problems that they've had over the years.
1:33:35 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Um, I kind of feel that maybe there is not enough clarification in what we're doing with the senior center,
1:33:42 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript but I am thinking,
1:33:45 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript however it works,
1:33:46 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript it's going to work good for the community.
1:33:47 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I hope because it's going to create jobs.
1:33:50 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And I do think that we need to consider the people that have put their heart and soul into that community.
1:33:57 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Um, I do think that it can be utilized and beautified.
1:34:01 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Um, me being a life safety director,
1:34:05 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript um, safety is very important.
1:34:07 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript If we failed today on a fire system because the city didn't pay or we didn't do what we needed to do,
1:34:13 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript um,
1:34:14 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript we didn't do what we needed to do.
1:34:15 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript If we failed today on a fire system because the city didn't pay or we didn't do what we needed to do.
1:34:15 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Um, then they failed to because even though there are 501 C and I think I'm talking on that correctly,
1:34:23 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript um,
1:34:23 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript they get all that funding of money from the city and then they get donation base.
1:34:29 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So for me,
1:34:31 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I had to speak on this because I do have a heart for this because that's what I do every day for our seniors.
1:34:38 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript We don't want everyone to be forgotten.
1:34:40 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I'm at that age.
1:34:41 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript We're all getting close to that age.
1:34:43 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And,
1:34:44 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript and we need somewhere for him to go kind of what he just spoke on now about the fees.
1:34:48 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript It ain't about the money.
1:34:49 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript It's about the volunteer.
1:34:51 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript It's about what we do as a community as a whole.
1:34:53 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And I do believe that we will come up with a resolution to this problem.
1:34:57 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Um, but I think we need more clarity.
1:34:59 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Thank you.
1:35:00 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Any other member of the public wish to address the council wire cast now ready for council member comments.

1:35:46 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I wanted to set up a nonprofit and I didn't know how.

1:35:51 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript their nonprofit,
1:35:52 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript maybe they can help you.
1:35:54 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I went and explained it to Ms.

1:37:43 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Uh,

1:38:12 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript um,
1:38:13 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript send a note of gratitude to the street department and,
1:38:16 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript um,

1:38:20 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I'm doing a lot of cutting.
1:38:22 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I know it's been delaying a lot of the traffic,
1:38:24 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript uh,
1:38:25 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript but the right away and the,
1:38:27 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript um,
1:38:27 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript the line of sight for the commuters,
1:38:29 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I've been hearing some good comments on that one.
1:38:31 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript All those trees coming down,
1:38:32 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript um,
1:38:33 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript especially close to Basham and Ross view.
1:38:35 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Um,
1:38:36 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript one of the things I do want to bring to the council's attention,
1:38:39 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript um,
1:38:39 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript when I'm talking about Ross view and,
1:38:41 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript and we heard,
1:38:42 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript uh,
1:38:42 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript a case today,
1:38:43 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript um,
1:38:43 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript around the Ross Rossi school,
1:38:45 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript um,
1:38:46 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript we just,
1:38:46 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript um,
1:38:46 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript approved 200 acres on Ted Crozier.
1:38:49 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Um,
1:38:49 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript and that has some R one,
1:38:51 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript um,
1:38:52 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript some R two,
1:38:53 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript some R four.
1:38:53 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript It's a demonstration of wire cast.
1:38:55 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript If you looked at the RPCs,
1:38:57 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript um,
1:38:58 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript schedule for,
1:38:58 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript um,
1:38:59 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript this past Tuesday,
1:39:00 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript it was deferred,
1:39:00 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript but there's another,
1:39:01 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript um,
1:39:02 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript proposal rezoning on Ted Crozier.
1:39:05 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Um,
1:39:05 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript so every time we build out,
1:39:07 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript um,
1:39:07 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript in that area,
1:39:08 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript those guys,
1:39:08 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript those children,
1:39:09 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript they're going to Ross through schools.
1:39:11 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Um,
1:39:11 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript whether they go the interstate way or whether they go down more field,
1:39:15 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript back up to Ross view,
1:39:16 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript um,
1:39:17 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript we've had,
1:39:18 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript we've,
1:39:18 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript the mayor has worked in the street department.
1:39:21 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Again,
1:39:21 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript a lot of kudos.
1:39:22 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript We've worked on really trying to widen Ross view,
1:39:24 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript but,
1:39:25 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript um,
1:39:25 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript we've had some challenges,
1:39:26 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript um,
1:39:26 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript especially with funding state and things like that,
1:39:29 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript but we've had a lot of challenges on Ross view,
1:39:31 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript um,
1:39:32 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript but we're going to continue to try to work to make that a four lane road.
1:39:35 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript But until then,
1:39:36 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript um,
1:39:37 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript we're going to have a lot of problems on Ross view because we're still adding a
1:39:40 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript lot of rooftops to the area.
1:39:42 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And that's why I really been trying to divert some of the rooftops to
1:39:46 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript somewhere else besides Ross view,
1:39:48 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript because we've got a lot of that.
1:39:49 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And then the people that live off of Ross view and Donbass arcade that have
1:39:53 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript their commute every day,
1:39:54 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript anyway,
1:39:55 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript up and down that road,
1:39:56 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript they can do their services requirements right there in the area where they
1:39:59 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript live.
1:40:01 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So we have,
1:40:02 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript we have a situation on Ross view.
1:40:04 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript It's not going to get any better.
1:40:05 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Um,
1:40:05 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript it's already painful.
1:40:06 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And just like the councilman from Lord Ford mentioned,
1:40:10 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript you know,
1:40:10 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript you can go out there,
1:40:11 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript uh,
1:40:11 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript any day,
1:40:12 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript even on a Saturday,
1:40:12 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript um,
1:40:13 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript and don't let anything happen on the interstate.
1:40:15 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Now Ross view is a vein.
1:40:17 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Um,
1:40:17 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript that's a vein to the city.
1:40:18 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript That's a vein everywhere across the city.
1:40:20 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Seems like.
1:40:21 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Um,
1:40:21 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript so every day is a busy day in one accident.
1:40:24 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript You don't have easement on roster in a lot of places.
1:40:26 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Um,
1:40:27 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript even 18 wheelers coming down there,
1:40:29 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript um,
1:40:29 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript you almost run off the road.
1:40:31 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Um,
1:40:31 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript so,
1:40:32 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript uh,
1:40:32 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I just like to bring that concern to the entire council.
1:40:36 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript That's one of my concerns.
1:40:37 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Um,
1:40:38 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript when we're looking at a lot of the zoning cases,
1:40:40 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript um,
1:40:41 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript because I'm looking at the entire situation on Ross view and everything that
1:40:45 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript affects Ross view,
1:40:45 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript those other outlying roads there.
1:40:47 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Thank you,
1:40:48 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript mayor.
1:40:49 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Councilman clutch.
1:40:50 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript You recognize,
1:40:50 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I thank you,
1:40:51 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Mr.
1:40:51 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Mayor.
1:40:52 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I just wanted to give a shout out to the,
1:40:53 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript uh,
1:40:54 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript information technology department.
1:40:56 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I am notorious for locking myself out of all the things.
1:40:59 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And,
1:41:00 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript uh,
1:41:00 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript they,
1:41:01 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript as well as updating this magical device,
1:41:04 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript even offered to deliver it again,
1:41:06 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript lends to the,
1:41:07 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript uh,
1:41:08 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript department heads and their teams and their commitment to,
1:41:10 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript to all of us.
1:41:11 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Well,
1:41:12 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript my crazy,
1:41:13 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript uh,
1:41:14 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript also tomorrow,
1:41:15 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript the center of hope from nine to 12 has given out food boxes for,
1:41:20 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript uh,
1:41:21 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript everybody,
1:41:21 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript but we would prefer it be the food insecure of the disenfranchised and that is
1:41:25 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript on craft street.
1:41:26 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So if you see me out there looking goofy,
1:41:29 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript please make me work for you or your friends.
1:41:32 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So I have,
1:41:32 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript sir.
1:41:33 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Thank you.
1:41:34 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Councilman Peters.
1:41:35 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript You're recognized.
1:41:36 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Uh,
1:41:36 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I just want to throw a little statement out here,
1:41:39 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I guess.
1:41:40 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript It hits to probably the street department.
1:41:43 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Uh,
1:41:44 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript appreciate Mr.
1:41:45 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Smith giving me a hand here,
1:41:46 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript but this is a concern I've got here.
1:41:48 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript It's coming up soon.
1:41:49 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I think,
1:41:50 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript uh,
1:41:50 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript the wall was due to open on June 18th and nothing has been done to that
1:41:55 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript intersection.
1:41:56 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript There's no line markings.
1:41:58 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript There's no turning markings,
1:41:59 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript no line.
1:42:00 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Oh,
1:42:00 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript this lane goes straight.
1:42:02 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript This lane goes right.
1:42:03 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript That coming off a ring of road.
1:42:04 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript That's a five minute light coming out of wall was going to be just as bad trying
1:42:08 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript to get on a hundred first.
1:42:10 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I think these things need to be addressed before this thing opens because this is
1:42:13 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript going to be a disaster waiting to happen.
1:42:15 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Like I've said,
1:42:16 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript many,
1:42:16 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript many times Ringo road,
1:42:17 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I know schools out right now,
1:42:18 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript but Ringo road will back up approximately 1.1 mile to the one point mile,
1:42:23 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript 1.7 mile length that it is during school.
1:42:25 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And that light takes a good five minutes to change.
1:42:28 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And it's even worse if you're on a hundred first,
1:42:31 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript cause you get stopped by the attorney light.
1:42:32 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Now you've got to wait for her first.
1:42:35 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Then you got to wait for ring golden.
1:42:36 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Now the road coming out,
1:42:37 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I think it's Parkway place.
1:42:39 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript I think coming out of the wall.
1:42:40 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Yeah.
1:42:40 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Yeah.
1:42:40 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript So they have to wait even longer.
1:42:42 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript We really need to look at this intersection.
1:42:44 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript If we're talking about traffic flow and all this,
1:42:46 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript this is a disaster waiting to happen.
1:42:48 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript And that's all I got to say.
1:42:49 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Thank you.
1:42:50 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Thank you.
1:42:51 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Any more comment or question?
1:42:52 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript We stand adjourned.
1:42:53 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript See you next Thursday.
1:42:54 in the video (opens in a new tab) Transcript Thank you.
