I'M IN A DILEMMA, BECAUSE WHERE DO I MOVE? I JUST PUT A NEW ROOF ON MY BAR AND JUST PUT A NEW ROOF ON MY HOUSE. I PUT A NEW FURNACE DONE SOME IMPROVEMENTS.

I'M KIND OF GETTING PAST THE ENJOYMENT OF THAT SO AND I DON'T HAVE KIDS THERE ANYMORE TO RIDE, GO CARTS AROUND AND ALL THAT STUFF, SO, BUT DO I LIKE THE BARN? YEAH. YOU KNOW, THEY SAY TRUE COUNTRY BOY, THE BARN IS TWICE AS BIG AS THE HOUSE. WELL THAT'S THE EXACT CASE WITH ME. IT'S A 36 100 FT BARN. WHICH WOULD COST ME A LOT OF MONEY TO REPLACE IT HAD WATER AND ELECTRIC AND CONCRETE FLOOR WITH A NEW ROOF. AND THE HOUSE IS ALL FIXED UP AND READY FOR ME TO DIE, AND I GUESS THAT'S WHAT SO. PLAN B MIGHT BE BY THE THREE ACRES. OKAY IF THAT WOULD HAVE THAT THEY COULD MAKE THAT THAT COULD HELP PARTS IN THEIR SITUATION. UM AND I LAST TIME I WAS HERE. I CALLED IT THE SPORTS CAMPUS. OKAY I MISSPOKE AND WENT BACK AND SOME OF MY RECORDS AND FOUND OUT THAT CONVERSATIONS WITH MR HENSON AND JERRY MCCUE AND SOME OF THE EARLY PEOPLE THAT WERE A PART OF THE NEW ALBANY PLANNING. THEY CALLED IN AN ATHLETIC CAMPUS AND THEN WENT BACK AND FOUND OUT THAT THE REASON THAT IT KIND OF GOT BURIED OR FORGOTTEN, OR, YOU KNOW, PUT UNDER A PILE WAS THEY HAD NO INFRASTRUCTURE TO FEED[00:05:02]
THE PEOPLE OR PUT THEM UP FOR THE NIGHT AND HOUSING. SO IF THERE WAS A WORLD CLASS ATHLETIC CAMPUS WHERE THEY'RE GONNA EAT WHERE THEY INSTEAD OKAY. AND SO, YOU KNOW, 20 YEARS AGO. WE DIDN'T HAVE WHAT WE HAVE. SO YOU KNOW, THEY JUST SAID, YOU KNOW, THE MOST IMPORTANT THING IS THE EDUCATIONAL CAMPUS. IT'LL BRING PEOPLE YOU KNOW, FOR THEIR CHILDREN'S SAKE. THE BUSINESS CAMPUS. YOU KNOW, WE'RE SUPPOSED TO LOWER PROPERTY TAX, YOU KNOW, AND THEN THE MEDICAL CAMPUS AND SO THE ATHLETIC CAMPUS JUST KIND OF GOT BURIED, I GUESS. I'M JUST MAKING A STAB AT IT SO BUT THAT'S THIS AND THERE'S WAS 5.5 ACRES THAT JUST SOLD. THAT'S 5.5. JUST SOLD JUNE. THE 16TH.OKAY SO THE OWNER OF THAT NOW IS THE SUN. OF THE OWNER OF THIS PIECE OF PROPERTY, WHICH IS THREE ACRES. OKAY WHICH I ALWAYS THOUGHT ALL OF THESE BIGGER PIECES. MADE ALL THE SENSE IN THE WORLD. TO BE A PART OF THE ATHLETIC CAMPUS WERE THE SPORTS CAMPS. SO AND. THAT'S BASICALLY IT ON THAT AND I HAVE A SUGGESTION. AND I HAD AN INCIDENT AT MY DOCTOR'S APPOINTMENT. I CAME ACROSS A FIRE HYDRANT THAT HAD BEEN HIT AND BROKE AND IT WAS LAYING OVER. AND I CALLED POLICE DEPARTMENT. THEY SAID. WELL, CALL THE MAINTENANCE DEPARTMENT . WELL I USED TO HAVE MARK MIMIC CELL PHONE NUMBER. SO I COULD HAVE TAKEN A PICTURE AND SEND IT TO MARK AND HE'D HAVE BEEN OVER THERE AND TOOK CARE OF IT. BUT I DIDN'T HAVE A CELL PHONE NUMBER ANYMORE.

[7. BOARD/COMMISSION REPORTS: ]
OUR AGENDA? SEEING NONE. I WILL MOVE ON TO BOARD AND COMMISSION REPORTS COUNCIL MEMBER SHALL ANY REPORT FOR PLANNING COMMISSION? THERE IS A REPORT FOR PLANNING COMMISSION. I'M GONNA KICK THIS OVER TO ANDREA, WHO WAS IN MY PLACE LAST NIGHT. I KNOW MIKE MIGHT ADD SOME COLOR TO IT AS WELL AS HE ATTENDED. BUT ANDREW, IF YOU'D LIKE TO GIVE A REVIEW? SURE SO THERE WERE THREE CASES THAT WERE UP AS WELL AS A ENGAGE NEW ALBANY STRATEGIC PLAN. UM DISCUSSION. ONE OF THE CASES WAS TABLED. THE OTHER WAS A ZONING AMENDMENT FOR THE PROPERTY LOCATED EAST OF THE OLD BOB EVANS CAMPUS. THIS SITE WAS ALREADY ZONED FOR COMMERCIAL USES, BUT THE REQUEST WAS TO CHANGE. UM ZONING CLASSIFICATION TO ALLOW WAREHOUSE AND DISTRIBUTION USES. ELIMINATE THE C FOUR USES. THIS WAS TO MAKE THE PROPERTY. UM MORE MORE PALATABLE FOR SOME FUTURE BUYERS. UM THAT WAS APPROVED. THERE WAS A LITTLE BIT OF DISCUSSION ABOUT WHERE THE PAVEMENTS THAT SHOULD BE, BUT OVERALL, IT WAS SUPPORTED AND THEN THING I WAS MOST EXCITED ABOUT WAS A FINAL DEVELOPMENT PLAN FOR THE MOVEMENT, CROW WASH . WHICH IS COMING HERE TO NEW ALBANY VACUUMS FOR CUSTOMERS, UM , WENT THROUGH A LENGTHY DISCUSSION ABOUT HOW BEST TO SITUATE. UM THE CAR WASH ON THE LOTS WITH TRAFFIC AND THE FLOW THE CAR WASH. WILL BE ABLE TO PUSH THROUGH ABOUT 100 CARS PER HOUR. THE ADDED BENEFIT IS THAT EVERYTHING IS SHUT DOWN BY[00:10:03]
EIGHT. UM SO ALL OF THE LADY CONSIDERATIONS, THE FLASHING SIGNS AND THINGS THAT WE TYPICALLY THINK ABOUT. WHEN WE THINK ABOUT RETAIL OUT. THEY'RE PROBABLY GONNA GO TO BED BY THE TIME THAT IT WOULD REALLY BOTHER ANYBODY SO THAT PASSED THERE WAS TWO VARIANCES THAT THEY ASKED FOR ONE FOR BUILDING AND SITE ORIENTATION AND THE OTHER FOR A SIGN GREENS AND THOSE ARE PASSED WITH NO ISSUE. UM THEN WE SPENT SOME TIME TALKING ABOUT THE HAMLET. UM CONCEPT IN OUR STRATEGIC PLAN, AND SOME AH! THE CITY'S PROPOSED CHANGES TO THE STANDARDS FOR THAT, UM, AND THE MAIN WERE YOU KNOW, THE UPSIDE IS THE PLANNING COMMISSION AND THE CITY. UM WE'RE ABLE TO HAVE A REALLY ROBUST DISCUSSION ABOUT THE PROPOSED STANDARDS, AND I'M HAPPY TO WALK THROUGH THEM. NOW IF WE'D LIKE TO, UM UPSIDE IS THAT THE PLANNING COMMISSION VOTED TO ALLOWS THE COUNCIL TO CONSIDER THE STANDARDS WHICH WE I BELIEVE WE WILL BE AT OUR NEXT MEETING. UM THERE WERE SOME CONCERN SOME DISCUSSION ABOUT WHETHER OR NOT THE DENSITY UM, THAT WAS POSTPONED STANDARDS WAS APPROPRIATE. UM THERE WERE THREE MEMBERS OF THE COMMUNITY WHO CAME IN AND SPOKE, UM RAISING SOME CONCERNS, BUT IT WAS A OVERALL IT WAS A GOOD A GOOD DISCUSSION LIKE YOU HAVE ANYTHING ELSE. NO I THINK THERE WAS DISCUSSION ABOUT ALL THE POINTS. I THINK ONE OF THE POINTS THAT CAME UP THAT I THINK WILL BE SOMETHING RELEVANT IN THE FUTURE. AS WE DISCUSS IT IS WHAT IS THE REAL RADIUS OF A HAMLET? HOW FAR DOES IT EXTEND? WHAT? WHAT IS THE STRATEGIC PLAN IS WRITTEN IN THAT THERE'S A BULLET POINT AT THE CENTER OF THE INTERSECTION OF CENTRAL COLLEGE IN 65. BUT DOES IT SAID THE SERVICE THAT AREA BUT IT DOES NOT DISTINGUISH IS IT A MILE EAST, WEST NORTH AND SOUTH IS 100 YARDS AS IF 500 YARDS AND I THINK THAT AT SOME POINT IF WE ARE GOING TO HAVE A HAMLET, WE SHOULD IDENTIFY SOME CONCEPTUAL SIZE, TOO. I DON'T KNOW WHAT THAT IS, BUT I DON'T THINK WE CAN LEAVE IT. WIDE OPEN AND, UH AND IF WE'RE INTENT, I THINK THERE'S BEEN DISCUSSION ABOUT GETTING RID OF THE OTHER HAMLET . YOU REALLY NEED TO NARROW THIS DOWN BECAUSE THAT'S WHAT WE'RE SPECIFICALLY WORKING WITH. AND WHATEVER STANDARDS WE APPLY WE WANT TO BE CERTAIN THAT IT DOESN'T GROW TO BE THIS BIG WHEN OUR INTENT IS A HAMLET TO BE SMALL. AND OCEAN. THAT WAS PROBABLY OTHER POINT WASN'T SO CLEAR, AND I'LL ADD THAT THE MOTION TO SUBMIT THE PLAN TO COUNCIL WAS IT DID PASS 4 TO 1 WITH MR LARSON? VOTING AGAINST BECAUSE HE WANTED A LITTLE BIT MORE DISCUSSION FOR SOME OF THE THINGS THAT WERE. THANK YOU ANYTHING FURTHER ABOUT PLANNING COMMISSION. OKAY. PARKS AND TRAILS ADVISORY BOARD WOULD BE COUNCIL MEMBER FELLOWS. I DON'T KNOW IF ANYONE HAD A REPORT FROM COUNCIL THERE WAS A MEETING, OKAY? ARCHITECTURAL REVIEW BOARD COUNCIL MEMBER DURIC. YES THERE WAS A MEETING THERE WAS ONE ITEM ON THE AGENDA. IT WAS FOR A. PROPERTY OWNER AT 14 AND 20 SOUTH HIGH STREET, WHICH IS DOWN SOUTH OF EAGLE PIZZA OVER HERE ON THE EAST SIDE OF SEXUAL FIVE. OR SOUTH HIGH STREET. THE OWNER WANTS TO PUT IN A PATIO BETWEEN THE TWO HOUSES FOR PERSONAL USE TO ENTERTAINMENT, BASICALLY USED THIS BUSINESSES AND WOULD SERVE AS KIND OF A CONVENIENT SPACE WHERE HIS EMPLOYEES ENTERTAINING PASS ALONE. THE DRAWING OF IT. IT WAS APPROVED WITH A COUPLE OF MINOR. UH CHANGES ARE VARIOUS ADDITIONS THAT THE ARCHITECTURAL REVIEW BOARD AND THAT THEY WOULD PUT IN A SEAT WALL FACING ROADS THAT IT WOULD BUFFER THE VIEW FROM THE STREET ITSELF PREPARED. MEET A LOT OF SENSE, WE KNOW PROPOSED USE THAT IS PERSONAL USE ITS TWO BUSINESS MUSIC FOR COMMERCIALS. IT'S NOT ABUSED FOR COMMERCIAL USE BUSINESS, WILL YOU EMPLOYEES WILL HAVE LUNCH, THOUGH. MEETINGS OUT THERE, IT'S NOT OFFICE. OKAY OKAY, GUYS. THANK YOU. OKAY ANYTHING FURTHER FROM ARCHITECTURAL REVIEW BOARD? CAN'T BOARD OF ZONING APPEALS COUNCIL MEMBER WILL TRAIL THERE WAS NO NO MEETING. AH SUSTAINABILITY ADVISORY BOARD COUNCIL MEMBER KISSED. I WAS UNABLE TO MAKE THE MEETING BUT SERVICE DIRECTOR BARKER IS GOING TO PROVIDE AN UPDATE FOR US. YEAH THANK YOU. UM SO WE MET ON JUNE THE EIGHTH. AND WE HAD NOT MET SINCE THE EARTH DAY ACTIVITIES AND ARBOR DAY ACTIVITIES. SO AMONG TOPICS OF DISCUSSION WAS JUST SORT OF A DEBRIEF AND FOLLOW UP OF THE EVENTS OF THAT DAY, AND JUST SOME KIND OF SOME FEEDBACK AND COMMENTS ABOUT THINGS THAT WE[00:15:03]
COULD TAKE INTO CONSIDERATION TO DO A LITTLE DIFFERENTLY. MOVING FORWARD. I THINK WE WERE VERY PLEASED WITH THE OUTCOME OF THE EARTH DAY FESTIVITIES IN PARTICULAR. OUR ANYWAYS DRIVE.YOU MIGHT KNOW THAT WE COLLECTED ANY. WASTE IT EQUIPMENT ELECTRONIC. WE PLANNED FOR WHAT WE THOUGHT WAS INAPPROPRIATE. AREA TO STAGE ALL OF THE THINGS THAT WE WOULD GET. TURNS OUT. WE NEEDED ABOUT FOUR TIMES WHAT WE HAD ORIGINALLY PLANNED FOR, SO I KNOW THE PEOPLE THAT WE'RE WORKING. THERE WERE VERY BUSY JUST SHUFFLING ALL THOSE ITEMS THROUGH, SO I THINK WE HAD A VERY TREMENDOUS RESPONSE. UM SO I KNOW THERE'S INTEREST IN DOING THAT AGAIN. UM WE ALSO PROVIDED AN UPDATE ON OUR COMPOSTING PROGRAM, AND, UM, WE ARE ACTIVELY WORKING. RYAN KELLY IS A G I S ANALYSTS RECENTLY HIRED WITH THE CITY. AND HE HAS BEEN AMAZING AND HELPING US TO PUT TOGETHER SOME DATA AND ANALYTICS AND WE'RE WORKING ON SOME THINGS NOW THAT WILL BE ABLE TO SHARE SOMETIME SOON. BUT BASICALLY WE HAVE AN ABILITY TO REPORT ON A WEEKLY BASIS, THE WEIGHT OVERALL WEIGHT OF COMPOSTING THAT WE WERE ABLE TO. FROM THE LANDFILL . IT BREAKS IT DOWN BASED ON EACH SPECIFIC LOCATIONS, SO WE HAVE THREE DIFFERENT LOCATIONS. ONE OF THE EPISCOPAL CHURCH ON THE SOUTH SIDE, ONE BEHIND VILLAGE HALL HERE AND THEN ONE OF THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT ON THE NORTH END OF TOWN. TODAY WE HAVE 243 REGISTRANTS FOR IT, AND WE CONTINUE TO GET MORE, UM AND OVERALL WE HAVE COLLECTED A LITTLE MORE THAN £5000 OF ORGANIC FOOD WASTE, SO I THINK OVERALL, I FEEL LIKE WE'RE OFF TO A GREAT START. UM SO I THINK THAT WAS A GREAT GREAT UPDATE ALSO TO THE FACILITIES THEMSELVES. HAVE PROVEN TO BE SUFFICIENT. TRUCKS HAVE BEEN NO PROBLEMS WITH PICK UP AND WAY FINDING FOR RESIDENTS. OF COURSE , SO GOOD. WE'LL CONTINUE TO MONITOR THAT. AND THEN WE ALSO ADRIAN PROVIDED A PRESENTATION ON TAYLOR PARK, TAYLOR FARM PARK AND ALL OF THE CURRENT IMPROVEMENTS AND FUTURE IMPROVEMENTS THAT WERE BEING DISCUSSED. WE TALKED QUITE A BIT ABOUT A LOT OF THE SUSTAINABILITY AND ENVIRONMENTAL BENEFITS THAT HAVE BEEN INCURRED BY WAY OF THIS WORK AND WILL BE IN THE FUTURE. I THINK THAT WAS PRETTY INFORMATIVE PRESENTATION. AND THEN ALSO, WE. THERE WAS A PRESENTATION AT THE REQUEST OF BILL RASH. REGARDING IMPLEMENTING WELL WASH STATIONS AT OUR CONSTRUCTION SITES JUST AS ANOTHER. CONSIDERING IT TO BE A BEST AVAILABLE TECHNOLOGY THAT THAT WOULD HELP TO MITIGATE SOME OF THE ROAD AND YOU KNOW, MUD ON THE STREETS AND CERTAINLY SEDIMENT IN OUR IN OUR STREAMS AND ROADWAYS, SO IT WAS A GOOD PRESENTATION FOR ALL TO SEE AND I'M MISSING ANYTHING. I THINK THAT WAS HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS YOU MIGHT HAVE. ANY QUESTIONS? THANK YOU. THANK YOU.
THANK YOU. OKAY INCLUSION DIVERSITY, EQUITY ACCESSIBILITY IMPLEMENTATION PANEL IDEA PANEL . UH WE WILL BE DISCUSSING FURTHER IN EXECUTIVE SESSION TODAY AND HOPEFULLY WE'RE GOING TO BE IMPANELING A PANEL AND MOVING FORWARD WITH SOME GREAT ACTIVITIES IN THE VERY NEAR FUTURE.

INCREMENT EQUIVALENT FUND. SPECIFY THE PUBLIC INFRASTRUCTURE IMPROVEMENTS THAT DIRECTLY BENEFIT THOSE PARCELS AND APPROVED AT AUTHORIZED THE EXECUTION OF ONE OR MORE TAX INCREMENT FINANCING AGREEMENTS. MS CHRYSLER. ARE YOU PRESENTING THE SORDIDNESS THIS EVENING? THIS ORDINANCE AMENDS THE OGRE OF TWO TAX INCREMENT FINANCING DISTRICT TO INCLUDE APPROXIMATELY 1689. ACRES THAT WAS RECENTLY ANNEXED INSTALLMENT IN THE CITY ON THE MAP HERE DEPICTS THE ACREAGE AND BREAD AND YOU CAN SEE THAT THE AREA IS BOUND GENERALLY BY GREEN CHAPEL ROAD TO THE NORTH. MINK STREET TO THE EAST JUG STREET TO THE SOUTH. THE EXPANSION OF THE OKURA TO TAX INCREMENT FINANCING DISTRICT DOES INCLUDE 94 PARCELS. THE PURPOSE OF CREATING THE TIP IS TO CAPTURE THE INCREMENTAL INCREASE IN THE VALUE OF THE LAND AND THE IMPROVEMENT AND OTHER ASSOCIATED . UM OPPONENTS IS TO CONTRIBUTE TOWARDS QUALIFIED PUBLIC INFRASTRUCTURE AND PUBLIC PROJECTS. THE CITY HAS ENTERED INTO AGREEMENT WITH SUPPLEMENTAL EXCUSE ME SUPPLEMENTAL AGREEMENTS WITH JERSEY TOWNSHIP REGARDING THE FUNDING OF FIRE AND EMS SERVICE IS ALSO IMPORTANT TO NOTE THAT THIS IS A NON SCHOOL TIFF. WHICH MEANS THAT IT DOES NOT NEGATIVELY IMPACT THE JOHNSTONE, MONROE LOCAL SCHOOL DISTRICT OR THE CAREER AND TECHNOLOGY EDUCATION CENTERS OF LINCOLN COUNTY. I CAN ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS THAT YOU HAVE TODAY ABOUT THIS ORDINANCE. IF NOT, WE WERE RESPECTFULLY REQUESTED. IT GETS SET FOR SECOND READING ON JULY 5TH. THANK YOU. ARE THERE ANY QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS FROM COUNCIL TO MISS CHRYSLER THIS EVENING? OKAY SEEING NONE. THE ORDINANCE MADE WILL BE SET FOR SECOND READING AND PUBLIC HEARING ON JULY 5TH 2022. ORDINANCE 0 2020 22 ORDINANCE TO ADOPT A TAX BUDGET FOR THE CITY OF NEW ALBANY, OHIO FOR FISCAL YEAR ENDING DECEMBER 31ST 2023 THE STATS ARE PRESENTING THE ORDINANCE THIS EVENING. I AM THE TAX BUDGET IS A REQUIREMENT OF THE FRANKLIN COUNTY BUDGET COMMISSION. FRANKLY COUNTY CHOOSES TO USE IT AS A TOOL TO ESTABLISH THE LOCAL NEED FOR THE PROPERTY TAX REVENUE, WHICH IS DERIVED FROM INSIDE MILLAGE.THIS IS SOMETHING THAT OTHER COUNTIES SUCH AS LICKING IN DELAWARE COUNTY HAVE ELIMINATED THIS REQUIREMENT. BUT FRANKLIN COUNTY HAS CONTINUED TO DO IT FOR THE R C. FROM OUR PERSPECTIVE. THE TAX BUDGET IS HOUSEKEEPING IN NATURE AND ENABLES THE CITY TO REMAIN COMPLIANT WITH RC 57 5 30 AS IT IS APPLIED TO FRANKLIN COUNTY. AND IT'S INCLUDED IN THE ORDINANCE AS AN ATTACHMENT FOR YOUR VIEWING. THE DOCUMENT IS USED TO SHOW THE NEED FOR THE ADDITIONAL INSIDE VILLAGE THAT WE'VE REQUESTED. AND HAVE BEEN GRANTED EACH YEAR THAT WILL BE REPRESENTATIVE. A RESOLUTION THAT IS GOING TO BE READ LATER THIS EVENING THAT ADDITIONAL MILLAGE REPRESENTS APPROXIMATELY $530,000 IN THE GENERAL FUND. UM AND IT HELPS THIS TAX BUDGET HELPS TO ESTABLISH THAT NEED FOR THAT ADDITIONAL FUNDING. THE REVENUE AND EXPENSE ESTIMATES INCLUDED ON THE TAX BUDGET ARE HIGHLY CONSERVATIVE DUE TO A COVID 19 GLOBAL PANDEMIC THAT CONTINUED UNKNOWNS RELATED TO WITHHOLDING FOR REMOTE WORKERS THAT WE'VE BEEN TALKING ABOUT, AND THE POTENTIAL LIABILITY FOR INCOME TAX REFUNDS. REVENUE ESTIMATES WERE REDUCED IN THE 2022 ANNUAL BUDGET. UM AS YOU RECALL, AND WERE ALSO CONSIDERED AND PREPARATION OF REVENUE ESTIMATES FOR 2023 FOR THIS DOCUMENT. AS MORE INFORMATION OF THE AVAILABLE. WE CONTINUE TO LOOK AT THESE ESTIMATES AND WILL CONTINUE AND INCLUDE MORE UPDATED ANALYSIS WHEN IT COMES TIME FOR PREPARATION OF THE 2023 ANNUAL BUDGET PROGRAM IN THE FALL. UM IN ADDITION, THE BUDGET SHOWS AN INCREASE IN OPERATING EXPENSES, WHICH ALSO WILL BE REFINED IN THE FALL. IF WE WANT TO WALK THROUGH THE ATTACHMENT, I WILL GIVE YOU AN OVERALL REVIEW OF THE ATTACHMENT SCHEDULE. A THAT'S ATTACHED TO THE ORDINANCE IS THE ESTIMATE OF PROPERTY TAX REQUIRED BASED ON PREVIOUS YEARS. THE NEXT PAGE IS EXHIBIT ONE. AND THAT BREAKS DOWN THE PREVIOUS TWO YEARS OF REVENUE AND EXPENSES OF THE GENERAL FUND AND ESTIMATE ESTIMATES FOR THE REMAINDER OF 2022 2023. SO THOSE ARE THE NEXT TWO PAGES OF THE TAX BUDGET. REVENUE ESTIMATES ARE SUBSTANTIALLY LOWER FOR BOTH 2022 23 THAN PREVIOUS YEARS, PRIMARILY DUE TO THE CONSERVATIVE ESTIMATES FOR INCOME TAX TAKING INTO CONSIDERATION THE UNKNOWN DIMENSION PREVIOUSLY. I. AS MENTIONED LAST MONTH IN OUR APRIL UPDATE ON THE REPORT MONTHLY REPORT. INCOME TAX FOR 2022 IS ACTUALLY TRACKING ON TARGET. WHAT 2021 HOWEVER, I
[00:25:01]
HAVE NOT ADJUSTED THAT FOR THIS TAX BUDGET DUE TO THE UNKNOWNS OF ANY POTENTIAL, UM, REFUNDS THAT WE HAVE, UH, FOR THE END OF THE YEAR. BUT AGAIN, WE'LL CONTINUE TO TRACK THAT UPDATED MORE. UM. TO BE MORE ACCURATE FOR THE 2023 BUDGET. PLANNING THAT WE HAVE. IF WE'RE LOOKING AT THE SECOND PITCHES THAT EXHIBIT OPERATING EXPENSES, WHICH WOULD BE THE TOTAL EXPENSES ON THAT PAGE, EXCLUDING ANY TRANSFERS TO OTHER FUNDS FOR THE GENERAL FUND SHOW, AN INCREASE OF APPROXIMATELY 933,000 FROM 2022 TO 2023. AND THAT IS JUST BASED UPON AN ASSUMPTION OF A 3.5% RATE OF GROWTH OVER 2022. TRANSFERS IF YOU LOOK AT THE BOTTOM CATEGORY , THEY'RE GOING TO BE MONITORED ANNUALLY AS FUNDS ARE AVAILABLE , SO THAT FLUCTUATES THE TOTAL EXPENDITURES. AND THAT IS FOR THE GENERAL FUND, SO EXHIBIT TWO IS RESERVED FOR SPECIAL REVENUE FUNDS RECEIVING PROPERTY TAX WHILE WE DO HAVE TIPS FUNDS THAT RECEIVED FUNDS REVENUE BASED ON PROPERTY TAX UM, MILLAGE. IT'S NOT DETERMINED BY THE COUNTY, AND IT'S NOT REQUIRED TO BE INCLUDED IN THE TAX BUDGET, SO WE DON'T HAVE A DETAIL ON THOSE. EXHIBIT THREE INCLUDES AN ESTIMATE OF ACTIVITY FOR ALL FUNDS THAT ARE BUDGET WITHIN THE CITY'S ANNUAL BUDGET PROGRAM.AND WE'VE BASED ALL OF THOSE AMOUNTS ON THE 2023 AMOUNTS INCLUDED IN THE 2022 IN YOUR BUDGET PROGRAM. WITHIN THE PRESENTATION. ALL CAPITAL FUNDS ARE PRESENTED AS FULLY EXPENDED . I KNOW THAT'S A QUESTION, SOMETIMES IN AN EFFORT TO SHOW ADDITIONAL NEED FOR THE ADDITIONAL FUNDING. AND REQUESTED MILLAGE, HOWEVER, THE CAPITAL PROGRAM AS YOU KNOW, AS APPROVED AND AMENDED EACH YEAR, AND THE APPROPRIATE AMOUNT WILL BE EXPANDED, ACCORDING TO THOSE APPROVED BUDGETS. EXHIBIT FOR LIST ANY OUTSTANDING JUDGMENT, WHICH THE CITY HAS NONE. EXHIBIT FIVE LISTS THE CITIES INSIDE 10 , MIL LIMIT DEBT ISSUANCES, GIVING THE COUNTY ADDITIONAL INFORMATION TO CONSIDER WHEN EVALUATING VILLAGE AND THEN THE FINAL PAGE INCLUDES THE 2023 PROPOSED CERTIFICATE OF ESTIMATED RESOURCES FOR THE COUNTY TO CONSIDER. UM THIS TAX BUDGET IT'S REQUIRED TO BE APPROVED BY JULY 15TH SO HOPEFULLY, NEXT MEETING WILL BE ABLE TO PROVE THAT AND SUBMITTED TO FRANKLIN COUNTY BY JULY 20TH . ONCE IT'S ADOPTED, IT WILL BE FORWARDED DIFFERENCE AND COUNTING AND THE BUDGET COMMISSION WILL SET THEIR MILLAGE. WITH THE APPROVAL AND OFFICIALS SHOULD PICK IT WILL BE CREATED IN A RESOLUTION OF ACCEPTING A MOUNTAIN RATES WILL BE, UM, CREATED AND NEEDED TO BE APPROVED IN THE FALL. SO I'LL BE COMING TO YOU IN SEPTEMBER FOR THAT. UM I CAN TAKE ANY QUESTIONS THAT YOU MAY HAVE.
ACCORDING TO LEGISLATION. QUESTIONS FROM COUNCIL. I JUST HAVE ONE QUESTION JUST LOOKING AT THE FIRST PAGE OF THE DAY. TAKE IT EASY. JUST A QUICK QUESTION ON REVENUE LOOKING AT HERE TODAY WHERE WE ARE THIS YEAR RELATIVE TO LAST YEAR. WE BUDGETED FOR 2022 TO BE DOWN ABOUT APPROXIMATELY 10% FROM LAST YEAR'S TOTAL YEAR. WERE CLEARLY RUNNING OVER THAT OVER THE YEAR TO DATE NUMBER THUS FAR THIS YEAR. DO WE ANTICIPATE AND I THINK I HEARD YOU SAY YOU WOULD EXPECT THE TAX REVENUE TO BE DOWN FOR THE REVENUE TO BEWNE TRENDING MORE DO YOU SEE A FALL OFF IN THE LAST PART OF THIS YEAR TO BE LOWER THAN YOU'RE REFERRING TO THE MONTH OF REPORT THAT I HANDED OUT, UM I WILL. I WILL ALSO TALK ABOUT THIS IN MY FACE AND MY FINANCE REPORT, BUT THIS PARTICULAR TALKING ABOUT TAXES, YOU'D RATHER RIGHT. RIGHT? RIGHT, RIGHT. RIGHT NOW.
I DO ANTICIPATE THAT WE WILL BE TRENDING MORE TOWARDS 2021. WE DID NOT ANTICIPATE THAT FOR 2022 . WHEN WE ORIGINALLY DID THE BUDGET, HOWEVER, I HAVE NOT ADJUSTED IT YET THIS YEAR. WITHS RELATED TO WORK FROM HOME AND REMOTE WORK THAT COULD BE COMING SINCE TAXES WERE JUST FILED IN APRIL. THEY HAVE THOSE AREN'T IN THE FIRST. HALF OF THIS YEAR'S NO. THEY ACTUALLY HAVE TWO YEARS TO FILE THOSE. UM OKAY, SO WE WILL. I DIDN'T WANT TO, UM BEFORE THE TAX BUDGET PURPOSES.
I DID NOT WANT TO ADJUST THOSE REVENUES BECAUSE THE PURPOSE OF THE TAX BUDGET SHOW NEEDS AND I WANTED TO MAKE SURE THAT WE WERE STILL MINE. I JUST WANT TO UNDERSTAND. YEP VERSUS YOUR ANYTHING SLIGHTLY DIFFERENT. OKAY THAT MIKE, EXCUSE ME. I LEARNED EARLIER TODAY THAT THE STATE SUPREME COURT IS ACTUALLY TAKING A CASE THAT WILL BE CHALLENGING THE LEGISLATURE'S POSITION ON HOW INCOME TAXES PAID DURING THE PANDEMIC. WANT TO SEE HOW THAT IS. VIDEO PUSH
[00:30:01]
IT OUT ANOTHER RIGHT. JUST THANK MY JOB EASIER. YOU AWESOME. THANK YOU. SO SO BETHANY WITH THE WHOLE WORK FROM HOME, AND EVERYTHING UP IN THE AIR IS THE ESTIMATE. LIKE WHAT LOGIC DID WE PLUG IN? IS THIS A CONSERVATIVE? LIKE, IS THIS KIND OF IF EVERYTHING FALLS, AND IT IS KIND OF WORST CASE OR IS THIS SOMEWHERE IN THE MIDDLE? SO WHEN I PREPARED THE 2022 ESTIMATES FOR WHEN WE DID THE ANNUAL BUDGET PROGRAM, WHICH IS WHAT I LEFT 2022 IN UM, I TOOK. I WANT TO SAY IT WAS FOUR OF OUR BIGGEST, UM WITH HOLDERS AND I APPLIED KNOWLEDGE THAT, UM IT TOOK A PERCENTAGE OF WORK FROM HOME AND APPLIED THAT ANALYSIS TO THEM AND TO THOSE LARGER SIEGE WITH COMMUNICATION THAT WE HAD WITH THOSE ENTITIES AND I WAS ABLE TO THEN TAKE THAT AMOUNT OUT AND APPLY OUR NORMAL RATES OF INCREASE TO THEIR REMAINDER OF IT. SO YES, THERE IS SOME ANALYSIS THAT LOOKS AT OUR LARGE REPORTERS. IT'S VERY CONSERVATIVE. WE HAVE GIVEN OURSELVES A BUFFER, UH, WITHIN OUR RESERVES TO BE ABLE TO COUNT FOR ANY ADDITIONAL LOSSES RELATED TO THAT, SO I HAVE NOT AGAIN. I HAVE NOT ADJUSTED YET FOR THIS YEAR, WE ARE DEFINITELY TRACKING. A LOT BETTER THAN I ANTICIPATED. HOWEVER AGAIN, YOU KNOW, THERE'S STILL THOSE REMOTE WORKS. THERE'S ALSO POTENTIAL NET PROFIT RETURNS THAT COULD COME FROM 2021 AS WELL. SO EXCEPT FOR THOSE BIG ONES ARE WE ASSUMING KIND OF LIKE THEY'RE GOING TO BE THE HYBRID. TWO DAYS IN THREE YES, THEN FROM THE KNOWLEDGE THAT WE WERE GIVEN. WE HAVE A COUPLE OF DIFFERENT ANALYTICS THAT WE PUT TO IT. WHERE WERE WE MAY BENEFIT CASEY IS AND SOME OF THOSE PEOPLE THAT ARE WHETHER PLACE OF EMPLOYMENT IS IN COLUMBUS. THEY'RE ACTUALLY ABLE TO WORK FROM HOME SO WE MAY PICK UP A LITTLE BIT ON THAT END, TOO, AND WE WEREN'T REALLY SURE HOW TO BUDGET FOR THAT.YEAH, THAT'S I DO THINK IT'S GOING TO BE NOT A WASH, BUT I DON'T KNOW IF IT'S GOING TO BE AS DETRIMENTAL AS ANTICIPATE SO HOPEFULLY PLAYING FOR THE WORST AND BUT IT'S BETTER. WE DIDN'T ACCOUNT FOR THAN THE PAST THE PEOPLE THAT MIGHT BE THAT EXAMPLE. WE DIDN'T GIVE OURSELVES THE BENEFIT OF THAT DOUBT. SO THAT'S THAT'S A BIG HELP IN BEING EXTRA CONSERVATIVE . THAT'S VERY GOOD NEWS BECAUSE I DIDN'T THINK THERE WILL BE A SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF THAT. ANY FURTHER QUESTIONS. OKAY THEN, UH , THE ORDINANCE MAY BE SET FOR SECOND READING IN PUBLIC HEARING ON JULY 5TH 2020. AND OTHER EXPENDITURES DURING THE FISCAL YEAR ENDING DECEMBER 31ST 2022 THE STATS. YES UM, FIRST I'M GOING TO REFER YOU GUYS TOO. THE LEGISLATIVE REPORT ATTACHMENT AND I WILL BE NOT. I'M NOT GOING TO GO OVER THIS IN DETAIL, BUT I WANTED TO MAKE SURE YOU HAD IT.
ALRIGHT SO CITY STAFF WE PERFORMED A MIDYEAR REVIEW OF THE CITY'S ACTUAL AND PROJECTED EXPENDITURES COMPARED TO THE 2022 ANNUAL BUDGET PROGRAM AND PREVIOUSLY APPROVED AMENDMENTS AND DETERMINED AMENDMENTS TO A PREPARATIONS ARE NECESSARY. DETAILS OF THE PROPOSED AMENDMENTS WERE INCLUDED IN THAT ATTACHMENT THAT I JUST REFERRED TO THE TOTAL PROPOSED ADJUSTMENT . PREPARATIONS FOR THE GENERAL FUND IS APPROXIMATELY IS 596,100 TO THE BUDGET CATEGORY TITLED OPERATING AND CONTRACTUAL SERVICES ACROSS SEVERAL DEPARTMENTS. APPROXIMATELY 62% OF THE INCREASE, WHICH IS ABOUT 371,000 IS FOR ONE TIME COSTS PASSED THROUGH COSTS REIMBURSABLE THROUGH FEES OR REVENUE DRIVEN CHARGES, SO THOSE AREN'T GOING TO BE SOMETHING THAT'S GOING TO BE ACCUMULATING EVERY YEAR. THE REMAINING 38% WHICH IS 225,000 AS A RESULT OF INCREASED OPERATIONS, WHICH IS EXPECTED TO BE FULLY FUNDED BY THE PROJECTED REVENUE INCREASE OVER 2022. ORIGINAL ESTIMATES SHOULD THE CITY'S INCOME TAX COLLECTIONS FOR 2020 TO CONTINUE TO MIRROR 2021 BACK TO THE SAME TOPIC. THE CITY IS ESTIMATED TO RECEIVE APPROXIMATELY THREE MILLION MORE IN INCOME TAX TO THE GENERAL FUND THAN ORIGINALLY PROJECTED. INCREASES TO THE CAPITAL FUNDS ARE PROPOSED, INCLUDING AMOUNTS NECESSARY FOR THE ADVANCED ORDERING OF CRUISERS NEEDED FOR 2023. MOVING THE FOREST DRIVES MILITARY TRAFFIC SIGNAL PROJECT FROM 2023 TO 2022 TO SAVE ON COSTS BY INCLUDING WITH ANOTHER PROJECT AND INCREASED CROSS RELATED TO THE BANKING AND JAMES RIVER. PERHAPS PROJECTS. THERE'S ALSO A TRANSFER NECESSARY FROM NAKED FUNDING FROM THE AUTHORITY TO MOVE IT FROM THE CAPITAL ACCOUNT TO THE SPECIAL ALBANO ACCOUNT TO
[00:35:03]
PROPERLY ACCOUNT FOR CONTRACTUAL COSTS VERSUS CAPITAL COSTS. AND THEN FINALLY, THERE IS A SUMMARY , UM, OF APPROPRIATION AMENDMENTS AND A SUMMARY OF AVAILABLE RESOURCES THAT IS INCLUDED IN THAT CATCHMENT.

EMILY SMITH IS HERE WITH THE COMPANY, AND SHE AND I CAN ANSWER ANY DIRECT QUESTIONS THAT COUNCIL MAY HAVE ANY QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS FROM COUNCIL REGARDING THIS RESOLUTION. I GUESS JUST TO ASKED THE QUESTION. I KNOW TYPICALLY, WE DO 15 YEAR TAX ABATEMENT SO COULD YOU TOUCH ON WHY THIS PROJECT WOULD BE 30 YEAR TAXPAYERS. OHIO LEGISLATURE CHANGED THE CODE SEVERAL YEARS AGO. I THINK IT WAS 2017. LAST YEAR, OKAY TO IDENTIFY AND TO MAKE OHIO MORE COMPETITIVE FOR WHAT WAS TERMED MAKEUP PROJECTS THEIR SPECIFIC REQUIREMENTS IN THE HARD VICE CODE FOR WHAT QUALIFIES AS A MAKEUP PROJECT.INTO THIS COMPANY WITH A $20 BILLION INVESTMENT CERTAINLY MET THAT THRESHOLD, SO AS SUCH, IT MAKES THEM ELIGIBLE FOR THE MAXIMUM TERM OF ABATEMENT IN THE HIGHER PRICE CODE, WHICH IS 30 YEARS, OKAY? ANY OTHER QUESTIONS FROM COUNCIL YEAH. JENNIFER DISTRICT BREEDING 848 ACRES. WE ARE 9 26 CARS JUST TO CHANGE. IT IS FROM THE LEGISLATIVE REPORT AND THE REASON FOR THAT CHANGES BECAUSE THAT'S ACTUALLY THE GROSS ACREAGE AND SO AFTER, UM RIGHT AWAY DROPS AND HP SUBSTATION WAS TAKEN OUT IN THE ACTUAL ACREAGE ITSELF WILL BE ABOUT 848.11 PLUS REMINDED SECRETS. PLUS OR MINUS APPROXIMATELY DO. WE NEED TO AMEND THE LANGUAGE AT ALL BEFORE ? YOU DON'T KNOW IT WAS JUST IN THE LEGISLATIVE REPORT THAT WAY , BUT THE LANGUAGE ITSELF IS FINE IN THE RESOLUTION. I DON'T KNOW IF WE STARTED BEFORE HE STARTED LOSING THINGS OUT.

NONE OF THE OHIOANS ARE SURPRISED. WE LOOK FORWARD TO CONTINUE WORKING TOGETHER WITH ALL OF YOU AND BEING A SUPPORTIVE BUSINESS PARTNER. UM, AND BEING A VERY ENGAGED MEMBER OF THE BUSINESS COMMUNITY.

[00:45:04]
MONTHS AND YEARS TO COME. IT'S TRUE THAT OHIO WAS BUILT FOR THIS. SO TOGETHER, LET'S BUILD SOMETHING WONDERFUL. THANK YOU. THANK YOU. THANK YOU VERY MUCH. APPRECIATE YOU BEING HERE. THANK OKAY, ANY OTHER PUBLIC COMMENT? OKAY? SING NONE. I WILL NOW CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING. ANY ADDITIONAL QUESTIONS FROM COUNCIL. OKAY. IS THERE A MOTION I MOVED FOR THE ADOPTION OF RESOLUTION ARE 21 2022 2ND. THAT'S A MEMBER KISSED. YES COUNCIL MEMBER WILL CHILD YES.COUNCIL MEMBER CHARLOTTE? YES RISK? YES. COUNCIL MEMBER DEREK YES. GUEST FIRST RESOLUTION ARE 21 2022. OKAY. RESOLUTION ARE 20 TO 2022 APPROVING AND AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO EXECUTE A NEW ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT AND NEW WATER SERVICE AND SEWER DISPOSAL CONTRACTS. ARE WITH THE CITY OF COLUMBUS IN ORDER TO FACILITATE AND SUPPORT FUTURE ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT IN THE CITY. MR STEPHENS. IN THIS CHRYSLER. YOU APPRECIATE THAT. THE CITY OF COLUMBUS HAS SERVED AS NEW ALBANY SUPPLY OF WATER AND SANITARY SEWER UTILITIES SINCE THE LATE 19 EIGHTIES. DURING THAT TIME, THE CITIES HAVE PERIODICALLY UPDATED THEIR ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT ACTIVITY AND UTILITY AGREEMENTS. TO ADDRESS NEW ALBANESE ONGOING GROWTH AND THE AGREEMENTS HAVE BEEN UPDATED EACH TIME NEW ALBANY HAS SOUGHT TO GROW BEYOND THE PREVIOUSLY AGREED UPON SERVICE AREA AND BOUNDARIES AND PREVIOUS UPDATES OCCURRED IN 2000 AND 1 2012 IN 2015. SO WITH THREE AGREEMENTS THAT THE SUBJECT OF THIS RESOLUTION, THE PRIMARY PURPOSE OF THE ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT IS TO ADDRESS THE NATURE OF REVENUE SHARING PAYMENTS THAT ARE MADE BY NEW ALBANY AND ITS DEVELOPERS TO COLUMBUS IN ORDER TO FACILITATE REGIONAL ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT AND REDEVELOPMENT. THE PROPOSED UPDATE EXPANDS NEW ALBANESE INCOME TAX SHARING RATE IN TERMS FROM THE 2015 AGREEMENT , WHICH WAS 26% FOR 15 YEARS TO A NEW 3600 ACRE GROWTH AREA, LOCATED EAST OF MINK AND SOUTH OF BRAIN CHAPEL ROAD. UM IT ALSO THE DEVELOPERS TO MAKE AN EQUITY SHARE PAYMENT TO COLUMBUS, WHICH IS APPROXIMATELY $3610 PER ACRE , WITH AN ADDED EXEMPTION FOR WORKFORCE HOUSING. THE WATER AND SANITARY SEWER AGREEMENTS ARE SIMILAR TO THOSE THAT WERE PREVIOUSLY APPROVED BY COUNCIL. THEY APPLY THE PREVIOUSLY AGREED UPON TERMS AND CONDITIONS TO THE NEW 3600 ACRE AREA. THERE HAS BEEN SOME LANGUAGE CHANGES PROPOSED IN THE AGREEMENTS IN ORDER TO HELP BETTER INFORM ALL OF COLUMBUS AGREEMENTS TO OTHER AGREEMENTS THAT THEY HAVE WITH OTHER CONTRACT COMMUNITIES. AND SO THE ONE PROVISION THAT DOES STAND OUT IN THIS AGREEMENT, THOUGH, IS THAT IF COLUMBUS WOULD BECOME UNABLE TO MEET THE NEEDS OF THE COMMUNITY, NEW ALBANY WOULD HAVE THE ABILITY TO SEEK OTHER ALTERNATIVES, SUCH AS SOURCING, NON POTABLE WATER FROM OTHER SOURCES. LANGUAGE HAS BEEN INCLUDED IN THE AUTHORIZING LEGISLATION THAT PERMITS THE CITY MANAGER TO MAKE CHANGES TO THESE AGREEMENTS. THEY ARE ON FILE RIGHT NOW WITH THE COUNCIL CLERK. BUT THOSE AGREEMENTS CAN THOSE CHANGES TO THE AGREEMENT WITHOUT COUNCIL AUTHORIZATION CANNOT BE ANY LESS FAVORABLE THAN THOSE THAT ARE IN THE ATTACHED DRAFTS. SO WE'RE STILL FINISHING SOME WORK BETWEEN OUR TEAMS IN THE CITY OF COLUMBUS TEAMS, BUT WE FEEL THAT WE ARE IN SUBSTANTIAL ENOUGH FORM THAT ANY CHANGES THAT NEED TO BE MADE WOULD NOT HAVE TO COME BACK TO COUNCIL AND THAT CITY MANAGER COULD APPROVE THEM. IF THERE ARE CHANGES TO THE AGREEMENT FROM WHAT'S ON FILE RIGHT NOW, THE COUNCIL CLERK'S OFFICE WE WILL COME BACK WITH ANOTHER RESOLUTION TO COUNCIL AUTHORIZING THAT THE AGREEMENT MUST BE APPROVED BY BOTH THE CITY OF COLUMBUS AND THE CITY OF NEW HARMONY IN ORDER TO EXTEND UTILITIES INTO THE EXPERIENCE GROWTH ZONE. I'D ALSO LIKE TO NOTE THAT THE RESOLUTION ALSO AUTHORIZES THE CITY MANAGER TO ENTER INTO OR SIGN THE PETITION TO EXPERIENCE TO AWAIT BOUNDARY.
UM WHICH WILL HAVE TO BE APPROVED BY THE COUNTY COMMISSIONERS IN THE SOUTHWEST LOOKING WATER AND SEWER DISTRICT. I CAN ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS THAT YOU HAVE TONIGHT . IF NOT, WE RESPECTFULLY REQUEST COUNCIL'S APPROVAL. ANY QUESTIONS FROM COUNCIL. JUST WANT TO ANTICIPATE ANY ISSUES OR CHALLENGES WITH GETTING THIS RESOLVED WITH COLUMBUS. AND WHAT MIGHT THE TIMELINE TO GET IT DONE? SO I THINK THAT'S A GREAT QUESTION OF GREAT ARTICLE CAME OUT IN BUSINESS FIRST THIS PAST WEEKEND ABOUT ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT IN CENTRAL OHIO AND ONE OF THE STATEMENTS THAT WAS MADE BY MAYOR GUNTHER IN THE COLUMBUS SECTION WAS THAT UM, THEY ARE PROUD TO BE PARTNERS IN HELPING TO BRING INTEL TO THE COMMUNITY BECAUSE OF THE WATER AND SEWER THAT THEY PROVIDE. AND SO I AM HOPEFUL THAT BASED ON THAT COMMENT, CERTAINLY RECENT
[00:50:03]
PUBLICATIONS THAT WE'RE GOING TO CONTINUE IN THE SPIRIT OF COOPERATION THAT WE HAVE OVER THE LAST COUPLE OF MONTHS. AND THAT WE HOPE WITHIN THE NEXT TWO WEEKS THAT WE WILL HAVE ALL OF THIS WRAPPED UP IN RESOLVE. GREAT GREAT GREAT NEWS. COUPLE OF QUESTIONS FOR YOU. UM SO THE CURRENT 2015 AMENDMENT FOR 26% FOR 15 YEARS. DOES THAT 2015 AMENDMENT DOES THIS CARRY IT THROUGH, THEN TO 2030. IS THAT THE EXTENT OF THE CONTRACT OR IS IT. THE NEW AREA, SO IT TAKES THE SO THERE'S THREE DIFFERENT REVENUE SHARING AGREEMENTS. IF THIS IS APPROVED IN PLACE WITH THE CITY. ONE IS THE ORIGINAL AGREEMENT THAT HAD SEPARATE TERMS DIFFERENT TERMS WHEN WE NEGOTIATED A NEW ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT IN 20, IT WAS ACTUALLY 2012 AND THEN MODIFIED TO INCLUDE ADDITIONAL GROUND IN 2015. THERE WAS A SEPARATE SET OF TERMS THAT WERE NEGOTIATED AS A PART OF THAT. THAT APPLIES ONLY TO THAT AREA. AND THEN THIS NEW AREA HAS HAS THE SAME TERMS BUT WOULD BE IN ITS STAND ALONE ON ITS OWN. SO THE 15 YEARS BASICALLY STARTS UPON APPROVAL. THAT'S CORRECT. IN THIS AREA. THIS 3600 ACRES BROKE, OKAY. AND THEN SECOND, THANK YOU. AND THEN SECOND UM WE TALK A LITTLE BIT HERE ABOUT IF COLUMBUS IS UNABLE TO MEET THOSE NEEDS. ARE WE CONCERNED ABOUT A POTENTIAL DELAY? THAT WE FIND OUT THAT THEY CAN'T BEAT THE NEEDS AND THEN ARE WE BEHIND, GOING OUT TO FIND ANOTHER RESOURCE, OR DOES THAT NOT HAPPEN? NO. WE'VE BUILT, UM LANGUAGE IN THE PROPOSED AGREEMENT THAT WOULD ALLOW FOR SOME TRIGGERS, UM, TO OCCUR IN THOSE TRIGGERS WOULD HAPPEN IN ENOUGH TIME FOR US TO UM, HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO EXPLORE OTHER OPTIONS AND IMPLEMENT THOSE OPTIONS. THAT WAS MY ONLY CONCERN IS THAT WE HAVE IT DOWNTIME, AND I DEFINITELY DON'T WANT THAT TO HAPPEN. WE WHICH YOU WILL SEE THE DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT. DEVELOPMENT SUPPLY AGREEMENT NEXT WEEK BETWEEN THE CITY AND THE COMPANY. BUT THERE'S SOME TRIGGERS BUILT IN THERE. THEY GIVE US SOME ROOM, AND THEN THERE'S AN ADDITIONAL TRIGGER THEN WHEN OUR CONTRACT WITH COLUMBUS SO THAT WE HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO REALLY BE THOUGHTFUL ABOUT WHAT OUR COURSE OF ACTION WILL BE. SHOULD COLUMBUS BE UNABLE TO SERVE THE SITE OR ANY SITE WITHIN THAT AREA? THANKS. ANY OTHER QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS? UH JUST WE CUTS ON THE NON POTABLE OPTION. ARE THERE ANY OTHER FEASIBLE ALTERNATIVES OUTSIDE OF THAT. WE ARE COULD BE PURSUED CONCURRENTLY, JUST IN CASE OR ABSOLUTELY. I MEAN, I THINK WE ARE LOOKING AT NON POTABLE IS JUST I THINK. UM. AN EASY WAY TO. THERE'S A LOT OF DIFFERENT OPPORTUNITIES, I THINK FOR NON POTABLE WATER AND HOW TO DELIVER THAT SERVICE. UM, WE'VE TALKED ABOUT WATER RECLAMATION AND WE TALKED ABOUT. IN FACT, WE JUST HAD A GREAT MEETING WITH THE COMPANY LAST WEEK. THEY HAVE A VERY STRONG PASSION UNTIL FOR, UM FOR WATER RECLAMATION AND CONSERVANCY AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE. ENERGY CONSERVANCY, WATER CONSERVANCY, SO I THINK THIS IS GOING TO BE THE BEGINNING OF AN ONGOING DIALOGUE ABOUT HOW WE CAN WORK WITH OUR EXISTING SYSTEM AND OUR PARTNERS, INCLUDING THE CITY ON THIS, BUT ALSO OUR PRIVATE SECTOR PARTNERS TO TRY TO FIGURE OUT HOW WE CAN BE MORE EFFICIENT, MORE USE. AND SO MAYBE IT MIGHT BE. REUSING SOME OF THE UNUSED WATER FOR THINGS LIKE FIRE SUPPRESSION OR SPRINKLING. YOU KNOW, I'M IRRIGATION, THOSE TYPES OF OPTIONS. MAYBE IT'S EVEN PUTTING THAT BACK INTO AN OPERATIONAL SYSTEM OR COOLING TOWER SOMEWHERE ELSE, LIKE ONE OF THE DATA CENTERS, AND SO THERE'S A LOT OF REALLY GREAT OPPORTUNITIES AND IDEAS. I THINK THAT WE'RE GOING TO UNCOVER OVER THE NEXT COUPLE OF YEARS, AND SO WE'RE EXCITED ABOUT THAT. AND SO I THINK THERE'S GONNA BE LOTS OF OPTIONS. THANK YOU. PUTTING A MICROPHONE WAS PULLING IT TOWARDS ANY FURTHER QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS FROM COUNCIL BEFORE I OPEN IT UP TO THE PUBLIC. OKAY I WILL NOW OPEN THE PUBLIC HEARING. WOULD ANYONE FROM THE PUBLIC LIKE TO SPEAK TO THIS RESOLUTION. OKAY. I WILL NOW CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING. I ASSUME THERE'S NO ADDITIONAL QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS FROM COUNCIL. I WOULD THEN LIKE TO MOVE.

THIS MIGHT LOOK FAMILIAR. WE DID DO ONE BACK IN JANUARY FOR 2022. BUT FOR THE PURPOSES OF THIS RESOLUTION CONVERSION OCCURS WHEN AN EMPLOYEE CONVERTS ACCRUED TIME VACATION OR SICK TO CASH.

BRIEF VERSION OF IT WITH APPROXIMATELY 42% OF THE YEAR COMPLETE. WE'RE ABOUT 52% OF BUDGET FOR REVENUES AND ONLY 29% FOR EXPENDITURES. REVENUES ARE TRACKING WELL, AS WE MENTIONED PRIMARILY RELATED TO INCOME TAX. IF WE TRACK THE SAME THROUGHOUT THE END OF THE YEAR WILL BE ABOUT $3 MILLION AGAIN. WE'RE NOT ADJUSTING THAT AT THIS POINT INCOME TAX, HOWEVER, AT THE BOTTOM ARE REFLECTIVE OF THE TAX FILING DATE BEING MOVED IN PREVIOUS YEARS. SO IF YOU LOOK AT THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN INDIVIDUAL INCOME TAX FOR THE TWO YEARS THERE'S QUITE A DIFFERENCE, BUT THAT IS BECAUSE LAST YEAR THEY WERE ABLE TO FILE YOU'RE NOT A YEAR A MONTH LATER. UM BUT THIS YEAR, THEY WERE NOT ABLE TO DO THAT. EXPENDITURES ARE TRACKING AS EXPECTED 2021 WITH INCREASE OF OPERATIONS. HOWEVER, WE ARE STILL SIGNIFICANTLY BELOW BUDGET.

IT DOES INCLUDE THE INVESTMENTS FOR GENERAL INVESTMENTS, INFRASTRUCTURE REPLACEMENT AND THE NEW STATE INFRASTRUCTURE FUNDS. THE SECOND PAGE IS ADDED. I ADDED SNAPSHOTS OF AH! BOTH OR ALL THREE ACCOUNTS WITHIN OUR RED TREE THEY MANAGED FOR US. SO THAT IS THE MAIN CUSTODY ACCOUNT THAT ALSO THE INFRASTRUCTURE REPLACEMENT IN THE STATE INFRASTRUCTURE FUNDS.

THE INTEREST RATE AS I'M SURE YOU MAY HAVE HEARD THE FEDERAL RESERVE THE INDUSTRY. SO WE ARE LOOKING AT MOVING TOWARDS , UM A LITTLE BIT MORE INCOME THAN WE ANTICIPATED. SO OUR INVESTMENT MANAGERS ARE WORKING HARD ON MAKING SURE THAT WE'RE USING THE FUNDS. WHY IT'S LAND INVESTING WISE. COME AND OKAY. ANY QUESTIONS FOR BETH. OKAY CITY MANAGER STEPPING OFF. THANK YOU HAVE ASKED MIKE TO GIVE A QUICK UPDATE ON SOME OF OUR CONSTRUCTION PROJECTS, AS WELL AS THE REMOVAL OF THE CHILDREN LINES OUT HERE IN FRONT OF THE BUILDING. CHIP LISTENING?

[01:10:07]
, THEY WOULD THEN TAKE DOWN THERE. JUST THINK ARIEL LINE. UPON THEIR COMPLETION WILL WORK WITH THE TO HAVE THE POWERFUL REMOVED. AP HAD BEEN VERY PROACTIVE WITH US IN THE PAST AND DOING THAT MOVIE ON HEELS. OF A P TO MAKE SURE THAT THE AREA IS SUFFICIENTLY RESTORED AND PLANTED AND CEDED. IT FITS. FIT IN WITH OUR VILLAGE CENTER, SO I THINK THAT'S POSITIVE NEWS ON I FEEL LIKE I'VE SAID THIS THIS UPDATE A COUPLE TIMES ON THIS PROJECT, BUT I'M HOPEFUL THAT WITHIN THE NEXT TWO WEEKS WE'RE DONE. SO BECAUSE THAT'S THE THAT'S THE UPDATE THERE. WE HAVE A LOT OF CONSTRUCTION ACTIVITY UNDERWAY ON JUNE 1ST. WE HELD A PRECONSTRUCTION MEETING WITH FACE MEYER CONSTRUCTION. THEY WERE AWARDED THE PROJECT FOR TAYLOR FARM PHASE ONE. HAS MADE. THIS IS A PROJECT THAT INCLUDES THE CONSTRUCTION OF A PARKING LOT AREA. AS WELL AS MILES AND MILES OF ASPHALT PAVEMENT ASPHALT BEATER TRAILS. PAYMENT ASPHALT LEISURE TRAILS BOARDWALK AREAS THAT ARE KIND OF GOING ALONG ADJACENT TO THE RECENTLY CONSTRUCTED BY MONDAY. AREAS AND PORTIONS OF IT ARE ACTUALLY GOING THROUGH THE WETLAND AREAS.UM SO I THINK THAT'S A THAT'S A GREAT PROJECT. THEY STARTED CONSTRUCTION OUT THERE THEY MOBILIZED ON SITE. MY UNDERSTANDING IS THAT THEY WILL BE STARTING THEIR WORK WITH THE CONSTRUCTION OF THE BOARDWALK ITSELF. SO YOU'LL SEE SOME CONSTRUCTION STAKES OUT THERE AND PLACE AND SOME ACTIVITY AND SOME TREE FENCING AND OTHER THINGS THAT ARE IN PLACE. THE INTENT OF THE PROJECT IS TO HAVE ALL OF THE BOARDWALK SECTION AND TRAIL SYSTEM COMPLETE BY THE END OF THIS FALL. UM AND THAT WOULD BE AVAILABLE TO OUR RESIDENTS AT THAT TIME. THERE IS SOME SUBSEQUENT PLANTING AND OTHER STABILIZATION EFFORTS THAT WILL CONTINUE IN THE FALL AND THEN ALSO IN THE FOLLOWING SPRING TO COMPLETE THE PROJECT, SO WE'RE ANTICIPATING FINAL COMPLETION OF THE PROJECT. RIGHT AROUND THE MIDDLE OF MAY OF NEXT YEAR, BUT AGAIN THE USEFUL PORTION RELATIVE TO THE BOARDWALK AND WALK AWAY AND PARKING LOT AND ALL THAT WILL BE AVAILABLE AT THE END OF THIS YEAR. SO WERE EXCITED ABOUT THAT PROJECT. SO JUST TO CLARIFY EVERYTHING THAT'S HAPPENED OUT THERE TODAY. HAS BEEN BYE. NICO. SO WE BECAUSE IF THIS IS PHASE ONE, ALL THE PLANTINGS AND EVERYTHING AND GREETING THAT'S ALL BEEN GIVEN BY NAKED TODAY. THAT'S CORRECT AND IT ACTUALLY IT REALLY WORKED OUT. I'D SAY PRETTY IDEALLY THAT THAT SITE WAS AMONG FOR LONG TIME AND I THINK THAT YOU KNOW THEM COMPLETING THE PROJECT AND THERE BEING SOME TIME TO ALLOW THE SITE AREA TO DRY OUT. HAS REALLY ENABLED OUR CONTRACTOR TO GET IN THERE ESSENTIALLY ON THE HEELS OF THAT AND BEGIN THEIR WORK, SO I THINK THAT YOU KNOW, I THINK INDIRECTLY, IT WORKED OUT FROM A TIMING STANDPOINT IDEALLY. BUT YES, ALL OF THE WORK THAT TO DATE HAS HAPPENED OUT THERE WAS COMPLETED BY NEKO. WE WORKED VERY CLOSELY WITH THEIR TEAM. IN FACT, THEY COORDINATED EXACTLY HOW THE SITE WAS LEFT. WE WERE ABLE TO KIND OF UTILIZE THEIR EXISTING CONSTRUCTION AND TRANCE AND LAY DOWN AREA OFF DUBLIN GRANVILLE ROAD. THEY LEFT SEDIMENT FENCE AND OTHER BRIDGE CONTROL MEASURES IN PLACE. WE'RE GOING TO AGREE TO JUST TAKE THOSE DOWN THE WAR DONE, BUT IT WAS DEFINITELY PASSING OF THE BATON AND PRETTY WELL COORDINATED. BETWEEN THE THEATER SO BUT STARTING NOW YOU KNOW EVERYTHING YOU SEE ACTIVITY WISE IS GOING TO BE RELATED TO CITY CITY. BUT JUST IN THE LAST TWO OR THREE WEEKS, IT'S LOOKED FANTASTIC AND THE PLANETS HAVE COME IN, AND IT LOOKS LIKE A COMPLETELY DIFFERENT SITE ALREADY. I MEAN THE STABILIZATION EFFORT JUST SIMPLY THE FACT THAT THERE'S GRASS GROWING IS AMAZING AND REALLY LIKE TO GET OUT THERE AND BE CLOSE TO THE WETLAND AREAS. THEY ARE. TAKE SHAPE. THEY LOOK DEPART AND YOU KNOW AGAIN, THESE WETLAND AREAS WILL BE FORESTED WETLANDS. I KNOW RIGHT NOW. IT SEEMS LIKE A BIG OPEN AREA, BUT THAT'S TEMPORARY. YOU KNOW, THEY GOT HUNDREDS AND HUNDREDS AND PROBABLY THOUSANDS OF WHIPS AND OTHER OTHER PLANTINGS WITHIN THOSE WETLAND AREAS. THAT WILL BECOME A FORCE BUT MINTS SO IT WILL NO DOUBT THE HALLMARK. YOUR TURN. UM. AT THE SAME TIME, OUR TEAM AND THE PUBLIC SERVICE DEPARTMENT HAS BEEN WORKING ON THE HOME TO TAYLOR HOME AND JUST CLEARING THAT AREA WE'RE GOING TO BE WORKING TO. WE HAVE TO GET THINGS STABILIZED BUTTON UP AND IN A SAFE CONDITION. IN ANTICIPATION OF OPENING OF THE
[01:15:06]
TRAIL HERE IN THIS ALSO THAT OTHER WORK THAT'S ONGOING. WE. WERE SUCCESSFUL IN OUR REBIDDING EFFORT OF THE TRAFFIC SIGNAL PROJECT THAT INCLUDED DUBLIN, GRANVILLE ROAD AND HARLEM ROAD TRAFFIC SIGNAL. THIS IS ADJACENT TO THE CHURCH THAT IS INACTIVE CONSTRUCTION. AND WE ALSO AT THE SAME TIME AS PART OF WHAT WOULD BETHANY INCLUDED THIS EVENING WAS SMITH MILL ROAD AND FOREST DRIVE TRAFFIC SIGNAL. UM YOU MIGHT RECALL WE DID THAT. INITIALLY, WE RECEIVED NO BITS.WE WENT BACK TO THE DRAWING BOARD. WE ENDED UP WE INCREASED OUR ENGINEERS ESTIMATE A BIT. IN A RARE MOMENT WE GOT WE DID GET TO BIDS COMPLETE GENERAL AND JUST HOWARD ELECTOR. AND INTERESTINGLY ENOUGH, THE PROJECT CAME IN ABOUT $10,000 OVER OUR ORIGINAL ESTIMATE. SO YOU KNOW, IT'S JUST THE WAY IT IS RIGHT NOW. SO THE PROJECT HAS BEEN AWARDED TO GUESS HOWARD ELECTRIC. UH, GRATEFUL FOR BOTH BIDS. IT WAS VERY COMPETITIVE BID DIFFERENCE OF ONLY ABOUT $40,000 BETWEEN THE TWO ON ABOUT A $1.2 MILLION PROJECTS ARE VERY, VERY TIGHT. SO THAT THAT'S PROMISING. AS IT RELATES TO THE DUBLIN GRANVILLE ROAD AND HARLEM ROAD. ONE OF THE INITIAL MILESTONES FOR THAT PROJECT IS TO PUT IN PLACE TEMPORARY ACCESS FOR THE CHURCH CONSTRUCTION ACCESS OFF OF DUBLIN BRANDEL ROAD. THAT WOULD FACILITATE. UH THAT PROJECT TO BE ABLE TO ELIMINATE THE CONSTRUCTION ENTRANCE OFF HARLEM ROAD, WHICH WE KNOW HAS BEEN PROBLEMATIC FOR RESIDENTS IN THAT AREA AND JUST FOR THE ROADWAY ITSELF. SO UH, THAT THAT WILL BE THAT WILL BE HAPPENING RIGHT AROUND THE FIRST WEEK IN JULY, SO THAT WILL BE VERY, VERY QUICK HERE. SO UM AT THE SAME TIME. THAT PROJECT INCLUDES SMITH MILL ROAD AND FOREST DRIVE. CURRENTLY IT'S AN UN SIGNALIZED INTERSECTION. UM THIS PROJECT DOVETAILS WITH OUR 1 61 AND US 62 ROADWAY IMPROVEMENTS. A PORTION OF THE INTERCHANGE IMPROVEMENT PLAN WILL INSTALL A CENTER MEDIAN.
ALONG US 62. AND THE ADDITION OF THAT MEDIA AND WILL PREVENT A LEFT. TURN OUT. FROM HARLEY STREET. IN WHICH CASE IT PUTS A GREATER EMPHASIS ON THE INTERSECTION OF SMITH MILL ROAD AND FOREST DRIVE. SO IT'S IMPORTANT AND IT'S A PRIORITY TO US THAT BEFORE ANY ANY TRAFFIC IS DIVERTED RELATIVES EARLY STREET THAT WE HAVE THAT TRAFFIC SIGNAL IN PLACE. UM AND JUST BASED ON SOME LESSONS LEARNED FOR BOTH OF THESE PROJECTS. WE HAVE PROVISIONS INCLUDED THAT THAT CONTEMPLATE TEMPORARY TRAFFIC SIGNALS. THEY ARE LIKELY TO INCLUDE, YOU KNOW, A WOOD POLE AND SPAN WIRE CONSTRUCTION , WHICH IS JUST IN A TEMPORARY BASIS, BUT IT ENABLES US TO PUT THE SIGNAL IN OPERATION AND EIGHT YOU KNOW THE MOVEMENT OF TRAFFIC, AND THAT'S BOTH. AT DUBLIN, GRANVILLE ROAD IN HARLEM ROAD AND, UM, FOREST RIDE. SMITH SMITH. SO YOU KNOW, GIVEN GIVEN SOME OF THE EXTENDED LEAD TIMES THAT WE HAVE AND THIS POST COVID WORLD FIGHT COVID WORLD WE'RE TRYING TO FIGURE OUT NEW WAYS WITH OUR PROJECTS TO ENSURE THAT WE CAN ACHIEVE MILESTONES AND DEADLINES, SO. WITH THAT SAID, WE ANTICIPATE THAT THE TEMPORARY TRAFFIC SIGNAL WILL BE OPERATIONAL BY THE END OF THIS YEAR AT FOREST DRIVING, SMITH WROTE. AND THAT WILL BE, OF COURSE, THAT WOULD BE IN ADVANCE OF ANY IMPACTS TO HARLEY STREET. AS IT RELATES TO THE 60 TO 1 61 ENTERTAINMENT PROJECT. UM. SO MOVING FORWARD TO THAT PROJECT, UM, US 60 TO 1 61 PROJECT THAT'S GOING TO BE, YOU KNOW, A TRANSFORMATIVE PROJECT FOR NEW ALBANY AND CERTAINLY FOR THAT INTERCHANGE. AS A WHOLE. IT IS CURRENTLY OUT TO BID. WE HAD A PRE BID MEETING TODAY. UM AND, UH WE HAD A FAIRLY LIGHT ATTENDANCE AT THAT WHICH IS NOT UNCOMMON. WE ARE GRATEFUL THAT WE CURRENTLY HAVE NINE PLAN HOLDERS, SO IT SEEMS LIKE IT'S AN ATTRACTIVE PROJECT TO CONTRACTORS, AND THERE'S MANY PEOPLE THAT ARE LOOKING AT IT. SO WE'RE OPTIMISTIC THAT WE'RE GOING TO BE IN A COMPETITIVE ENVIRONMENT AND WE DO OPEN BIDS NEXT TUESDAY. JUNE 28TH. AND WE'LL BE IN A POSITION TO REVIEW THE BIDS AND HOPEFULLY GET THAT PROJECT IN CONTRACTING MOVING FORWARD IMMEDIATELY. HOPE IS TO HAVE ACTIVE CONSTRUCTION. UH, REALLY STARTING SOMETIME IN THE BEGINNING OF AUGUST. SO AGAIN, IT'S GOING TO BE IT'S GOING TO BE TIGHT, BUT THAT'S THAT'S WHAT WE'RE SHOOTING FOR. WITH THAT PROJECT. UM. THIS AND ANYTHING ELSE. YOU WANT TO JUST DO A QUICK UPDATE ON THE METHODIST CHURCH IN THE MARKET STREET EXTENSION? SO THE PROJECT OF
[01:20:02]
MARKET STREET EXTENSION. IT INCLUDES THE CONSTRUCTION OF A ROUNDABOUT AT WHAT IS CURRENTLY THE EASTERN TERMINUS OF MARKET STREET. MARKET TREAT WILL EXTEND EAST INTO THE STATE PROPERTY AND WILL CONTINUE DUE NORTH. TO WHERE IT WILL CONNECT INTO WHAT IS CURRENTLY THIRD STREET. UM THE INTENT OF ALL OF THIS PROJECT IS TO BASICALLY DE EMPHASIZE THE INTERSECTION OF HIGH STREET AND MAIN STREET. THAT BUILT CONDITION OF THAT INTERSECTION IS SUCH THAT THERE IS NOT THE AVAILABILITY TO EXPAND THE CAPACITY OF THE INTERSECTION. BUILDINGS ARE VERY CLOSE TO THE ROADWAY, AND THERE'S JUST NOT AN OPPORTUNITY TO ADD AN ADDITIONAL LANE OR TWO. TO INTRODUCE CAPACITY IN ANYWAY, SO THE GOAL WITH THIS IS TO REALLY TAKE TRAFFIC AWAY FROM THAT AND TO CREATE ESSENTIALLY A BYPASS FOR THAT INTERSECTION THROUGH THIS PROJECT. THE.PROJECT IS, I WOULD SAY IT'S PROBABLY 60 TO 70% DESIGNED. THERE'S SUBSTANTIAL EFFORT OF UTILITY CLEARANCE AND COORDINATION. UNFORTUNATELY SIMILAR TO THE EFFORT THAT WE TOOK PLACE FOR ROSE RON PHASE ONE. WE'RE GOING TO BE INCLUDING SOME UTILITY BURIAL ALONG SIX OR FIVE ALONG DUBLIN GRANVILLE ROAD. IN CONJUNCTION WITH THIS WORK, SO THERE'S A FAIR AMOUNT OF COORDINATION THAT HAPPENS. AND WE HAVE BEEN ACTIVELY WORKING WITH THE UNITED METHODIST CHURCH. IN ORDER TO INTRODUCE, UM REALLY AN INTUITIVE PATH ALONG 62. WE REALLY WANT 62 TO TRANSITION INTO THIRD STREET AND FEEL AS THOUGH IT'S THE THRUWAY. WE WANT THAT TO FEEL LIKE THAT'S THAT'S THE PRIMARY WAY THROUGH. AND IN DOING SO WE DO IMPACT THE CHURCH PROPERTY AT THAT CORNER. THERE IS A NEED FOR US TO OBTAIN SOME SOME RIGHT AWAY FROM THE CHURCH IN ORDER TO MAKE THIS WORK. WE'VE BEEN WORKING ACTIVELY WITH THE CHURCH. FROM THE BEGINNING OF THIS PROJECT. AND I THINK WE'RE NOW IN A VERY GOOD PLACE WITH THE CHURCH TO WHERE WE HAVE AN UNDERSTANDING OF WHAT THE MAGNITUDE OF THE IMPACT IS AND HOW OUR PROJECT IS GOING TO.
BASICALLY RECTIFY ANY IMPACT TO THEIR PROPERTY. ANY IMPACT OF THEIR PARKING AND I THINK AT THE END OF THE DAY, IT REALLY GIVES US AN OPPORTUNITY TO HAVE A TRULY FINISHED INTERSECTION.
IT'S NOT GOING TO LOOK LIKE A PATCHWORK OF PROJECTS. IT'S GOING TO LOOK LIKE A COMPREHENSIVE PROJECT. UM, SO THAT'S VERY MUCH MOVING FORWARD. IT IS. RIGHT? THANK YOU FOR THE UPDATE, BUT I WAS GOING TO SAY MIKE'S NOT GIVING YOURSELF ENOUGH CREDIT FOR THE DESIGN.
HE'S DONE AN EXCELLENT JOB WORKING WITH THE ADJACENT PROPERTY OWNERS, PARKING SOLUTION THERE FOR THE CHURCH AND THE OTHER ADJACENT PROPERTIES IS REALLY CREATIVE.
AND VERY EFFICIENT AND THAT THAT INTERSECTION IS A TOUGH UM IT'S A VERY TOUGH ANGLE TO DEAL WITH BECAUSE OF EVERYTHING THAT'S COMING TOGETHER, SO HE'S DONE A REALLY GOOD JOB. IT'S PROBABLY WE PROBABLY HAVE A CHOICE OF EITHER GOING OUT TO BID. AND BEGINNING CONSTRUCTION EVEN LATE THIS YEAR. IT MIGHT BE BETTER FOR US JUST TO DELAY OUR BIDDING PROCESS TO THE END OF THE YEAR AND GET OFF TO A FAST START IN 2023. SO WE'LL BE WORKING ON THAT. I THINK MIKE AND I ARE GOING TO BE OUT. MEETING WITH THE LEADERSHIP OF THE METHODIST CHURCH IN ABOUT A WEEK, HOPEFULLY GETTING THEIR APPROVAL AND ACQUIRING THE NECESSARY RIGHT AWAY AND WE'VE BEEN WORKING WITH INVOLVING COMPANY AND RIGHT AWAY THAT WILL NEED FROM THEM. AND THEN THE WE HAVE TO TALK TO THE EYE DOCTOR YET, BUT WE'RE GETTING CLOSE. I WAS ACTUALLY WONDERING ABOUT MY EYE DOCTOR RIGHT THERE. I WAS GOING TO HAVE TO CHANGE POSITIONS. JUST ONE QUESTION. I DON'T KNOW WHETHER IT'S RELATIVE TO MIKE OR UM, JOE, BUT I'M JUST CURIOUS WHERE WE STAND ON ROSE RUN TO THE VETERANS MEMORIAL PROJECTS AS WELL. SINCE MR RUBIES HERE, HE CAN ANSWER SOME OF IT AS WELL. PRETTY MUCH ALBANY COMPANY ANYWAY, IF THAT'S RELEVANT BUT I'M JUST CURIOUS WHERE WE STAND ON THOSE PROJECTS. YES FOR THE ROSE RUN TO PROJECT WHERE ACTIVELY IN DESIGN WE HAVE ABOUT UM, WE HAVE A 10% KIND OF PLAN. CHECK. UM LEVEL OF PLANS THAT WE'VE WORKED THROUGH A LOT OF ISSUES RELATED TO DUBLIN BRAMBLE ROAD, THE SETBACK ON THE STREET. PASS ALONG BOTH SIDES OF, UM THE ROSE RUN. WE'VE ALSO WORKED WITH THE NEW ALBANY COMPANY ABOUT THE FUTURE OF UM, NO WAREHOUSE BUILDING, AND MAYBE DEMOING THAT AND INCLUDING THAT LAND INTO THE PARK, AND IT HAD SIGNIFICANT I THINK PROGRESS AND FROM A DESIGN STANDPOINT, REALLY UNDERSTANDING THE BENEFITS THAT WOULD MAKE AN ORDER OF OPENING UP ACCESS TO THE PARK, BOTH VISUAL AND PHYSICAL ACCESS. WE'VE ALSO WORKED THROUGH DIFFERENT SCENARIOS FOR A PARKING GARAGE IN TERMS OF SETBACK SIZE HEIGHT
[01:25:07]
OF THE GARAGE, AND SO WERE WE ARE ACTIVELY PURSUING DESIGNED TO GET TO KIND OF A 25% DESIGN LEVEL THAT WE WOULD AND THEN HAVE OUR CONSTRUCTION MANAGER MESSER PROVIDE SOME OPINIONS OF PROBABLE COST AND THEN BRING THOSE OPTIONS TO CITY COUNCIL. I HAD A QUESTION ABOUT WHEN YOU WERE TALKING ABOUT 62, 1 61 AND THE POTENTIAL TEMPORARY TRAFFIC LIGHTS AND ALL THAT. SO 62 FACE AND FIRST OF ALL LOOKS AMAZING. THAT'S THAT'S MY AREA THAT I'M IN EVERY DAY. IT'S LOOKING FABULOUS, BUT I WAS KIND OF CURIOUS WITH THE TRAFFIC SIGNAL. PREDICTION IS THERE DO WE HAVE THAT COMING? IS THAT YES. SO THE LAST UPDATE WAS, WE'RE ANTICIPATING THAT TO BE IN PLACE . WE HAVE ALL OF THE EQUIPMENT IN PLACE. WE ARE WAITING ON A PERMANENT POWER SUPPLY FROM A SO THAT'S THE FINAL COORDINATION, PEACE. AND SO WE ARE ANTICIPATING THAT TO BE UP AND OPERATIONAL RIGHT AROUND THE MIDDLE OF MIDDLE OF JULY. DID YOU SAY JULY? YES AND WILL YOU IMMEDIATELY THEN START USING THAT AS A CONTROLLED TRAFFIC SIGNAL FOR THE FIRE DEPARTMENT.AS WE HAD TALKED ABOUT. ABSOLUTELY AND INCLUDED WITH THAT IS A IS A PREEMPTION ELEMENTS SO BASICALLY WHEN THE FIRE DEPARTMENT IS RESPONDING TO AN EMERGENCY, THEY WOULD HAVE THE ABILITY TO, UM TO PUSH THIS BUTTON, AND IT WOULD BASICALLY PUT EVERYTHING ON. IT PUTS THE TRAFFIC IN FRONT OF THE FIRE DEPARTMENT ON THE GREEN TO GET THEM OUT OF THE WAY. AND THEN IT PUTS EVERYTHING EVERY OTHER DIRECTION ON RED TO PREVENT PEOPLE FROM ENTERING INTO THE INTERSECTION. SO IT REALLY CREATES. I THINK A VERY SAFE ACCESS ONTO U 62 FOR THE PARTY.
