[6. HEARING OF VISITORS]

[00:05:05]

SO OUR OFFERS WE'VE OFFERED TO EDUCATE WITH OFFERED WITH SHARED PERSONAL AND DEVASTATING EXPERIENCES. WE'VE ASKED LIKE FORM A CITIZEN ACTION COMMITTEE. SO THAT WE COULD EDUCATE THE FOUR STAFF. SUPERINTENDENT SAWYER'S ADMINISTRATION ALL OF THAT SUNDAY NIGHT. THEY HAVE NO INTEREST. AND SO. EVEN SURE PERSONAL RESPONSE TO UNDERSTAND WHAT'S GOING THROUGH QUITE A LOT . I SHOULD SAY CHILD GONE THROUGH QUITE A LOT HAS BEEN MET WITH JUST TURNED UP RESPONSIBLE.

SO OUR CHILDREN ARE BEING PLACATED AND THAT THEY'RE UP THE FOREIGN THEIR HOUSE HEARTS OUT, TELLING BOARD WHAT'S HAPPENING, AND IT'S JUST COMING UP FOR SUPPER. SO I'VE LIVED IN THIS COMMUNITY FOR THREE YEARS NOW, AND I'VE SEEN IT GROW AND LEAVE SIMBA. MY PROFESSIONAL BACKGROUND IS AN AFFORDABLE HOUSING DEVELOPMENT AND URBAN PLANNING. WITH INTEL COMING IN AND SEXUALLY ON THE DOORSTEP RIGHT AND SO MANY OTHERS WHO ARE INTERESTED IN AND BEING A PART OF HERE IN NEW ALBANY. UM I JUST DON'T SEE HOW THESE DISCRIMINATORY DISCRIMINATE FOR PRACTICES THAT NAPLES ARE GOING TO HOLD UP. OUR RECRUITERS. MEANT TO SHOWCASE YOU, ALBANY AS AN INCLUSIVE AND PROGRESSIVE COMMUNITY. CRIMINAL, OLEA. I JUST DON'T SEE HOW REAL CHURCH HAD REAL TRUTH REACH OUT ON FACEBOOK AND SAY, HEY, I HAVE AN LGBTQ FAMILY THAT WANTS TO COME AND BUY A HOUSE HERE. CAN ANYBODY HOPEFULLY, CAN ANYBODY TALKS WITH STUFF? WILLING TO TALK WITH THEM, BUT I'M NOT ENCOURAGED TO LIFT HERE. UNFORTUNATELY, I LOVE IT HERE.

BUT IT'S NOT A SAFE PLACE FROM LIKE MY CHILD. ACTUALLY, EITHER ONE AND SO I THINK THAT THAT'S SOMETHING THAT A LITTLE BIT BIGGER THAN JUST THIS FLOOR. I THINK IT IMPACTS A LOT MORE THAN JUST SCHOOL. IT IMPACTS. IT IMPACTS. YOU KNOW, ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT. IT DIDN'T IMPACT COMMUNITY. THAT DOESN'T HAVE EVERYTHING THAT YOU WILL TO ACHIEVE HERE, AND I THINK IT'S SOMETHING THAT WE WOULD LIKE TO HAVE YOUR EYEBALLS. BECAUSE. THERE HAS TO BE A WAY BEFORE.

THE TRUTH OF THE MATTER IS THERE WERE NOT. THERE WAS NO POLICY IN PLACE ABOUT OR NAMES, WHICH IS ESSENTIAL. IT DISALLOWS TEACHERS AND ADMINISTRATION FROM. FROM HONORING THE STUDENTS REQUESTED PRONOUNS OR PREFERRED NAME WITHOUT PARENTAL WHICH IS IT THAT. LITTLE ISSUE RIGHT THERE LEADS TO A BIG BIG SUBJECT AND A BIG, ACTUALLY A FRIGHTENING PLACE. STUDENTS WHO NO LONGER HAVE A SAFE PLACE, WHICH INCREASES SUICIDE INCREASES. AND SO THAT'S OUR STICKING POINT.

THAT'S WHERE THEY DON'T SEEM TO WANT TO BUDGE, AND THAT'S WHERE WE CAN'T FIGHT. WE'VE JUST SEEN SO. I'M HERE TONIGHT WAS JOE QUICKLY, UM I JUST WANTED TO OFFER. WE'RE HAPPY TO MEET WITH YOU. WE'VE DONE A TON OF RESEARCH WITH THE PUBLIC. TO THE PAST. YOU KNOW, WITH THE SCHOOL? I HAVE THE HIGHEST RESPECT. I THINK THAT WE'RE VERY HARD JOB. FOR WHATEVER REASON WITHIN A

[00:10:01]

SECOND IS THAT THE NAPLES ADMINISTRATION AND STAFF ENGAGED IN IMMERSIVE LGBTQ. FLASH THE EI EDUCATE. WE OFFERED AND WE TOLD THEM REACH OUT TO AND THEY FIND THEY HAVE NOT DONE ANYTHING THAT THEY TOLD US. SHE IS NOW CONNECTED WITH PRIDE. AND SO I'M REALLY FOCUSED ON SOMETHING GOOD COMES UP TO YOU ALL HAVE AN IDEA COMMITTEE. I WAS FOR THEM TO PARTICIPATE ON THAT, UM BUT YOU KNOW THAT MIGHT BE A GOOD PLACE, BUT BUT I DON'T THINK THIS IS THE THING THAT SHOULD BE JUST PUSHED NERVOUS, BROADER ISSUES THAT IMPACT MISSED EVERYTHING THAT YOU DO HERE AND SO I THINK IT'S IMPORTANT. THAT THAT'S SOMETHING HOW AND THE OTHER IS THAT I WANTED TO JUST PUT OUT IS THAT THE EMAIL THAT SWEARS SENT TO THE TEACHERS OF SOMEWHAT FRIGHTENING? MANY OF THE TEACHERS ARE FRIGHTENED. IN THE JOB MISSED UP. UPSET SITUATION. AMAZING TEACHERS HERE. SO I DON'T KNOW THAT THAT WAS ME. IT IS. ACTUALLY BREAK DIE. SOFIA HERE. SO WE WERE HOPING TO HAVE YOUR. WELL THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR COMING IN TONIGHT TO SHARE THAT WITH US. I KNOW. I ON OCCASION.

I HAVEN'T WATCHED EVERY SCHOOL BOARD MEETING, BUT I WATCHED A NUMBER OF THEM OVER THE LAST YEAR, BUT THIS ISSUE HAS BEEN ADDRESSED AND HURT SOME OF THE COMMENTS FROM STUDENTS AND FAMILIES IN A SCHOOL BOARD MEMBERS AS WELL. I JUST WOULD ENCOURAGE YOU TO STAY ENGAGED AND TRY TO KEEP WORKING THROUGH THESE ISSUES. UM YOU KNOW, IT IS DIFFICULT FOR EVERYONE, AND I THINK EVERYONE'S BEST INTEREST IS TO HAVE THE YOU KNOW THE KIDS AND EDUCATION IN MIND. BUT YOU KNOW, STAY ENGAGED. STAY ACTIVE , AND HOPEFULLY THIS THIS CAN GET RESOLVED THERE AT LEAST SOME LEVEL OF SATISFACTION. ANY QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS FROM FROM COUNCIL. OKAY COMING. THANK YOU . CONTINUE OUR WORK TOGETHER ON THE IDEA ALREADY. THANK YOU. THANK YOU. AND I MISS KING GEORGE DRIVE JUST FOR THE RECORD. IS THERE A LONG TIME AGO, MR QUIGLEY? SIR GOOD EVENING, JOE QUIGLEY. I'M LIVING 40 25 CHELSEA GREEN WEST HERE IN NEW ALBANY AND, UM SOME OF WHAT I'LL SAY HERE, PROBABLY NEGATIVE OR WHATEVER, J SAID, BUT I WILL. I WILL ENDEAVOR TO SPEAK QUICKLY. SO UM UH MARY SPAULDING AND COUNCIL MEMBERS, AS SOME OF YOU MAY KNOW, ON AUGUST 12TH OF THIS YEAR, NEW ALBANY'S SCHOOL SENT OUT AN EMAIL TO ALL PARENTS TO THE DISTRICT WITH THE SUBJECT LINE. STUDENT PRIVACY UPDATE. THE PURPOSE OF THIS EMAIL WAS TO INFORM PARENTS AT THE SCHOOL WAS INTRODUCING A NEW POLICY. THE STATE OF A STUDENT WERE TO REQUEST A STAFF MEMBER TO REFER TO HIM SLASH HER AS A DIFFERENT IDENTIFIED. GENDER SLASH PRONOUN STAFF WILL WORK WITH EACH STUDENT TO SEEK PARENT SLASH GUARDIAN PERMISSION PRIOR TO HONORING THE STUDENTS REQUEST SO THAT THAT'S THE ADMINISTRATIVE GUIDELINE. THE CITY ISSUE FOR THE PARENTS WHO HAVE BEEN ENGAGED HERE. UM THE EMAIL INFORMED PARENTS THAT THE CHANGE IN PRACTICE WAS NECESSARY TO ALIGN WITH QUOTE TO ALIGN WITH CHANGES TO STATE OR FEDERAL LAW REQUIREMENTS. UNQUOTE. THE EMAIL WENT ON TO SAY AGAIN THAT THIS QUOTE CHANCE TO ALIGN WITH FEDERAL LAW CHANGED TO ALIGN WITH FEDERAL LAW, MAYBE A SHIFT IN PRACTICE FOR STUDENTS, STAFF AND FAMILIES. HOWEVER THE FACT OF THE MATTER IS THERE WAS NO CHANGE IN FEDERAL OR STATE LAW. INDEED THERE IS NO FEDERAL OR STATE LAW THAT ADDRESSES THE USE OF PRONOUNS. THERE IS, HOWEVER, TITLE NINE, WHICH HAS BEEN HELD TO PROTECT EVERYONE FROM DISCRIMINATION BASED ON GENDER. THE SCHOOL BOARD'S ACTIONS, WHICH WERE NOT IN FACT REQUIRED BY ANY STATE OR FEDERAL LAW PUTS THESE ALREADY VULNERABLE YOUTH AT MORE RISK THAN THEY WERE BEFORE. THEREFORE, WE HAVE A POLICY THAT IS ENTIRELY DRIVEN BY AN ACTIVIST BOARD. PRIOR TO ENACTING THIS NEW POLICY KNOWN ON THE BOARD ENGAGED WITH ANY LGBTQ STUDENTS. PARENTS OR ANY OF THE GREAT ORGANIZATIONS IN OUR AREA THAT SUPPORT THE LGBTQ COMMUNITY. FOR MORE THAN IS SUPPOSED TO BE, ABOVE ALL ELSE DEDICATED TO WHAT IS GOOD FOR STUDENTS. IT IS TROUBLING TO ME THAT SUCH A DECISION WOULD BE MADE WITH NO INPUT FROM ANY OF

[00:15:06]

THIS POLICY PUTS NEW ALBANY IN THE UNFORTUNATE SITUATION WHERE WE THE ONLY SCHOOL DISTRICT IN CENTRAL OHIO WITH SUCH A POLICY. IT'S NOT ONLY INCREDIBLY HARMFUL TO THE MOST VULNERABLE OF OUR YOUTH. IT'S ALSO JUST A BAD LOOK FOR A CITY THAT DOES ITS BEST TO PORTRAY ITSELF AS AN UPSCALE, INCLUSIVE COMMUNITY. I DON'T HAVE ANY SPECIFIC ASK FROM THE COUNCIL AND THE MAYOR. MY GOAL HERE IS TO MAKE YOU AWARE OF WHAT HAS BEEN GOING ON. IN CASE YOU DIDN'T KNOW. WE HAVE A SMALL BUT FIERCE GROUP OF PARENTS THAT IS GROWING EACH WEEK IS DEDICATED TO HAVING THIS POLICY RESCINDED. WE TRIED OUR BEST TO WORK WITH THE BOARD OVER THE LAST FOUR MONTHS, BUT WE'VE MADE NO REAL PROGRESS. AS WE SAID BEFORE. THIS POLICY IS NOT ONLY HARMFUL TO OUR CHILDREN, BUT IT'S ALSO AN EMBARRASSMENT TO OUR CITY. OUR SCHOOL BOARD WON'T PUT STUDENTS WELL BEING FIRST.

WE SIMPLY CANNOT HAVE THE NEW ALBANY SO MANY OF US MOVED HERE TO BE PART OF, AND SO MANY OF YOU WORK SO HARD TO KEEP GOING. THANK YOU. THANK YOU, SIR. ANY QUESTIONS FROM COUNCIL? RIGHT AND WE CERTAINLY APPRECIATE YOUR COMMENTS AND ALWAYS WELCOME TO ADDRESS COUNCIL ON MATTERS OF CONCERN IN THE PUBLIC. ANYONE ELSE FROM THE PUBLIC LIKE TO ADDRESS COUNCIL REGARDING A

[7. BOARD/COMMISSION REPORTS]

ALL RIGHT, UM, DOWN THIS. AH. APPARENTLY THE CITY IS LOW ON TONER. LET'S PUT THAT IN THE BUDGET IT OH, SORRY I DON'T HAVE HERE FOR YOU. BUT THIS IS, UM WE'VE HAD TWO MEETINGS NOW, AND WE'VE KIND OF HAD A CHANCE TO TALK ABOUT THE GOALS FOR EACH OF THE THREE, UM PROJECTS, WHICH I WILL REMIND YOU OF THE FESTIVAL WELCOME RECEPTIONS AND AMBASSADORS AND WE HAD A REALLY WONDERFUL MEETING ON WEDNESDAY, UM, TO TALK ABOUT SOME OF THE PURPOSE AND GUIDING PRINCIPLES FOR EACH OF THESE EVENTS, AND I WANTED TO SHARE IT WITH YOU GUYS, BECAUSE THIS IS KIND OF A NEW COMMITTEE AND I WANTED TO KEEP YOU GUYS INFORMED OF WHAT WE'RE DOING, BUT THE FESTIVAL.

THE PURPOSE AND GETTING PRINCIPLES IS THAT IT'S INCLUSIVE ENOUGH DIVISIVE SHORT REPRESENTATION, HIGHLIGHTING CULTURES AND UNDERSTANDING THE CULTURAL MAKE UP OF NEW ALBANY, WHICH I THINK WILL BE REALLY, REALLY INTERESTING TO SEE. I THINK WE'RE TRYING TO THINK OF LIKE A CULTURAL FESTIVAL. NOT UM SOMETHING THAT REPRESENTS LIKE THE CULTURE, THE CULTURE THAT NEW ALBANY LIKES TO CELEBRATE AND ENJOY THE WELCOME RECEPTION . IT'S REALLY, UH, TRY AND TRYING TO FOCUS ATTENTION TO ALL OF NEW ALBANY RESIDENTS TO COME AND UNDERSTAND WHAT'S GOING ON HERE. WHAT DO YOU NEED? YOU KNOW WHAT CAN YOU DO? WHERE CAN YOU GO FOR PEDIATRICIAN? WHERE DOES THE CITY DOING HAPPEN? YOU GET INVOLVED AND HOW CAN WE CONNECT TOGETHER AND THEN THE AMBASSADORS AS I LIKE TO CALL WELCOME WAGON THAT TIME HAS NOT CAUGHT ON YET, BUT IT'S REALLY TO IDENTIFY NEW RESIDENTS MOVING INTO THE COMMUNITY. GET THEM SET UP WITH WHAT THEY NEED TO KNOW THEM, A FRIEND AND KIND OF START GROWING COMMUNITY AS THEY DON'T, WHICH I THINK EVERYBODY ON THE IDEA COMMITTEE KIND OF HAVING THEIR OWN WAY. IT MIGHT HAVE BEEN FIVE YEARS AFTER THEY MOVED HERE, BUT EVERYBODY HAS A STORY OF HOW THEY FOUND THE WAYS TO CONNECT WITH THE COMMUNITY, AND WE JUST WANT TO MAKE THAT HAPPEN A LITTLE SOONER. SO LOVE TO HAVE YOU GUYS INPUT ATTENDED THE MEETINGS, BUT I WANT TO KEEP YOU INFORMED. SOUNDS LIKE A GOOD GOOD HEAD START. UM. YOU KNOW, I KNOW YOU HAVE HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO BE ENGAGED IN A LOT OF DIFFERENT GROUPS AND ORGANIZATIONS IN THE COMMUNITY. UM, THAT COULD FEED INTO YOU KNOW GALTHIE AMBASSADORS AND THE WELCOME RECEPTIONS. YOU KNOW EVERYTHING FROM NON TO HELP IN NEW ALBANY TO DIFFERENT GROUPS AND ORGANIZATIONS, SO HOPEFULLY WE CAN WE HAVE ENOUGH MEMBERSHIP ON THE IDEA COMMITTEE THAT ARE TAPPED INTO THOSE ORGANIZATIONS AS WELL. BUT WE'LL BE GREAT TO MAKE THOSE CONNECTIONS IF THEY'RE NOT. IN FACT, ONE OF THE HOMEWORK PROJECTS FOR THE NEXT GROUP NEXT YEAR IS TO LIST KIND OF COME UP WITH A LIST OF ALL THE AFFINITY GROUPS AND ALL THE COMMUNITY GROUPS THAT WE KNOW OF, SO WE CAN TRY TO LEVERAGE AND GET A HEAD START BECAUSE THEY RELATE TO ALL THREE OF THE SUBJECTS PERFECT. BUT THAT'S GONNA GO. ALL RIGHT. WE NEED THE UK CLUB ANYONE WANTS STARTED CLUB DOWN. GO PUT ME DOWN. ALRIGHT ANY OTHER UPDATES FROM BOARDS AND COMMISSIONS CORRESPONDENT FOR COMMUNICATIONS AND THE COURT SPONSOR COMMUNICATIONS SINCE OUR LAST MEETING THAT COUNCIL TO PROVIDE AN UPDATE ON. IT TAKES US TO SEPARATING BOARDS AND PUBLIC

DILIGENCE AND PUTTING TOGETHER THOSE WORKBOOKS. SPEND A WHOLE DAY GOING OVER LINE BY LINE DEPARTMENT BY DEPARTMENT. HAD A LOT OF QUESTIONS THEY GET ANSWERED. APPRECIATE YOUR THE WILLINGNESS TO ENGAGE IS ON SOME OF THESE QUESTIONS. THIS IS IT TEST SECOND READING. IS THERE ANY ADDITIONAL QUESTIONS FROM COUNCIL TO THE FINANCE DIRECTOR REGARDING THE PROPOSED BUDGET? ALL RIGHT. I KNOW IT'S KIND OF LIKE WE'RE JUST AT THE END HERE , SAYING THANK YOU KNOW, SHOULD BE LIKE GRILLING WITH MORE QUESTIONS, BUT EVERYTHING HAS BEEN DONE. I THINK WE'VE DONE THE HARD WORK THE ONLY I HAVE HAD A COUPLE OF QUESTIONS, UH, FROM CONSTITUENTS REGARDING IT.

IS THERE AN ELECTRONIC VERSION ON THE SITE? ONCE IT'S FINALIZED AND POSTED THAT PEOPLE CAN VISIT FIVE. YES SO ONCE I LAST YEAR, THERE WAS A DELAY. UM DUE TO AN EXTENSION THAT I HAD TO RECEIVE WITH BEING OUT FOR A COUPLE OF MONTHS. UM BUT GENERALLY IT SHOULD BE AVAILABLE, UH, MID FEBRUARY AS FAR AS THE FINAL VERSION, BUT THE ONE THAT IS ON UM, CURRENTLY HAS ALL OF THESE AMENDED MEANT IN IT. THE ONLY UPDATES THAT WILL HAPPEN TO THE ONE THAT I POST WILL BE JUST PUTTING THE 2021 FINAL OR 2020 22 FINAL AMOUNTS. UM IN THERE ONCE WERE ABLE TO CLOSE THE YEAR. SO ONCE THAT'S AVAILABLE, I CAN LET YOU KNOW. ARE WE STILL PARTICIPATE IN THE HEALTH CHECK? BECAUSE WELL, I YES. AND NO. WE HAVE OUR OWN, UM, CHECKBOOK SITE WITHIN THE OPEN GOVERNOR TRANSPARENCY PORTAL SINCE THE MOVEMENT FROM OUR OLD SOFTWARE TO OUR NEW SOFTWARE BACK IN THIRD OR SECOND QUARTER 2018 THAT CONNECTION HAS NOT BEEN UPDATED, BUT IT'S NOW CENTRALLY ON OUR WEBSITE. UM JUST BECAUSE OF THE STRUCTURE OF THE INTEGRATION THAT HAD TO HAPPEN.

WE CURRENTLY HAVE OUR OWN CONTRACT RATHER THAN DEPENDING ON THAT, AND THE TREASURER'S OFFICE. OKAY TREASURER'S OFFICE . I KNOW THAT OPEN GOVERNMENT MODULE AND APPLICATION IS, YOU KNOW REALLY ROBUST TO THE EXTENT THAT THE PUBLIC CAN ENGAGE IN THAT, YOU KNOW, THE REPORT GENERATION. THERE IS GREAT AS WELL.

SO WE LOOKED AT JUST ONE SMALL SECTION. I THINK THE EXHIBIT IN THE LEGISLATION HAS THE WHOLE CHAPTER 11 13. BUT JUST THE LAST PAGE HAS THESE CHANGES OUTLINED AND READ HERE, SO THE CODE LANGUAGE CURRENTLY CURRENTLY SAYS, UM, SITE SPECIFIC CONSTRAINTS OUTLINED AND RIGHT HERE, AND WE FOUND THAT THIS CAN BE MISINTERPRETED TO INCLUDE ONLY PHYSICAL GEOGRAPHY OR LAYING CONDITIONS FOR CONSIDERATION WHEN LOOKING AT A WAIVER REQUEST. SO OVER TIME, THE CITY STAFF AND THE MEMBERS OF THE ARCHITECTURE REVIEW BOARD HAVE IDENTIFIED OTHER CONDITIONS RELATED TO BUILDINGS OR STRUCTURES THAT WARRANT CONSIDERATION WHEN EVALUATING A WAIVER REQUEST AND TO ENSURE THAT THOSE ARE CONSIDERED, UH, CITY STAFF HAS WORKSHOP THIS NEW LANGUAGE WITH THE CITY'S ARCHITECTURE REVIEW

ADJUDICATED FORFEITURES CUSTODIAL FUND AND TO ISSUE A THEN ANNOUNCED CERTIFICATE SORT OF CERTIFICATE. WOW. THE STATS. THANK YOU, MAYOR. AS DISCUSSED LAST MEETING. THE PURPOSE OF THE PROPOSED LEGISLATION IS TO ELIMINATE NEGATIVE OR PRIMARILY TO ELIMINATE NEGATIVE ACCOUNT BALANCES AND ENSURE THAT APPROPRIATIONS FOLLOW THE OHIO ADVICE CODE REQUIREMENTS AND IT INVOLVES PROACTIVE MEASURES TO ENSURE BUDGETARY COMPLIANCE FOR THE 2022 AUDIT. THERE HAVE BEEN AMENDMENTS TO THE ORDINANCE SINCE LAST READING. THEY INCLUDE THE SECTION DOWN. I THINK IT'S SECTIONS SIX TO APPROVE TO THE CREATE THE POLICE, ENERGETIC ATED FORFEITURES CUSTODIAL FUND

[00:40:06]

THE CURRENT PROCESS INCLUDES PHYSICAL SAFEGUARDING AND TRACKING WITHIN THE LOCKED PROPERTY ROOM. UNTIL THE OUTCOME OF THE RELATED CASES DETERMINED AND THEN DISPERSED TO THE APPROPRIATE PARTIES. THIS FUND WILL ALLOW THOSE MONIES TO BE DEPOSITED INTO A FINANCIAL INSTITUTION AND FINANCES, WORKING WITH POLICE TO CREATE RELATED POLICIES AND PROCEDURES , WHICH INCREASE INTERNAL CONTROL AND MAKE CLEAR STANDARDS. THE SECOND AMENDMENT WAS TO APPROVE A THEN ANNOUNCED CERTIFICATE AND THE AMOUNT OF 135,555. TO THE NEW ALBANY COMPANY FOR REIMBURSEMENT OF CITY OF THE REQUESTED MODIFICATIONS TO THE COMPANY'S COMPREHENSIVE DRAINAGE IMPROVEMENT PROJECT, BEGINNING ON THE EAST SIDE OF BABBITT ROAD. AND GENERALLY EXTENDING WEST TOO. AVIS ROOM. THE RIGHT ROAD. A STORM SEWER CROSSING WAS PROPOSED ALONG BABBITT, WHICH WAS ALSO DETERMINED TO BE NECESSARY TO SUPPORT FUTURE JANET DRAINAGE IMPROVEMENTS AND THE RECONSTRUCTION OF BABBITT ROAD. THE CITY REQUESTED NEKO UPSIDE, THE STORM, SEWER CROSSING AND THE ADDITIONAL STORM SEWER STRUCTURES NECESSARY TO FACILITATE FUTURE EXTENSION. AND AGREED TO COVER THE RESULT IN CONSTRUCTION COSTS. NEKO INCLUDED PROVISIONS WITHIN THEIR CONTRACT TO ENSURE THAT THE SCOPE OF WORK SUBJECT TO REIMBURSEMENT BY THE CITY WAS PAID FOR UTILIZING PREVAILING WAGE RATES, AND THE IMPROVEMENTS ARE NOW COMPLETE AND HAVE BEEN INSPECTED AND APPROVED BY EP FERRIS ON BEHALF OF THE CITY.

SECTION SO NOW I'M GONNA GO BACK TO THE BEGINNING. THOSE WERE THE , UM MATERIAL ADJUSTMENTS THAT AREN'T RELATED TO APPROPRIATION AMENDMENTS THAT ARE INCLUDED TO WRAP UP THE ENTIRE BUDGET. A DETAILED LIST OF PROPOSED AMENDMENTS IS INCLUDED FOR SECTION ONE AS AN ATTACHMENT TO THE LEGISLATIVE REPORT, AND I ALSO HANDED YOU OUT AN ADDITIONAL COPY WITH THE SUMMARY OF THE ADJUSTMENTS MADE THROUGHOUT THE YEAR TO THE EFFECTIVE FUNDS, THE ADJUSTMENTS FROM LAST READING ON THAT ARE HIGHLIGHTED IN YELLOW UM, SO THERE ARE ONLY TWO LINES THAT CHANGED ON THIS FROM LAST READING RELATED TO THE ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT FUND, THE GENERAL FUND, THE ONLY ADJUSTMENT MADE TO THE GENERAL FUND, AND THIS LEGISLATION IS THE TO DECREASE THE POLICE DEPARTMENT BUDGET AS A RESULT OF MOVING THE MARKS RADIO EQUIPMENT, REALLY PATIENT PROJECT TO THE CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT FUND. THERE'S NOT A RELATED INCREASE WITHIN THE CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT FUND DUE TO THE FUN HAVING SUFFICIENT FUND AVAILABILITY. BUDGET AVAILABILITY, THE PERMISSION PERMISSIVE TAX FUND. THERE'S AN INCREASE IN THE AMOUNT OF $100,000 THAT MATCHES THE REQUEST THAT WE MADE FROM THE COUNTY. FOR THOSE FUNDS RELATED TO THE U. S 60 TO 1 61 PHASE TWO CAPITAL PROJECT. IF YOU'RE LOOKING AT THE E ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT EAST AUTHORITY. THE ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT ORIGINAL FOOT AUTHORITY, NIKA AND SERVICE FUNDS THERE WERE DECREASES NECESSARY TO AGREE TO AMORTIZATION SCHEDULES, WHICH WERE MODIFIED DUE TO FINALIZING TUBE OF R OHIO WATER DEVELOPMENT LOANS AND THE REFINANCING THAT WE COMPLETED FOR THE 2013 AND 2012 BONDS. THIS PAST SUMMER AS A REMINDER THAT THAT SERVICE FUND RECEIVES THESE TRANSFERS FROM THE RESPONSIBLE FUND. OR FUNDS FOR ALL CITY DEBT PAYMENTS , AND THEY'RE ALL PROCESSED THROUGH THE DEBT FUNDS. SO THAT'S WHY THERE'S RELATED, UM INCREASES TO THE FUNDS PAYING FOR THE DEBT AND THE DEBT SERVICE FUN. I DIDN'T GO THROUGH THE LAST ONE TO PUT YOU THROUGH THEM AS I'M MAKING SURE THAT YOU UNDERSTAND THESE VARIOUS TAX INCREMENT FINANCING TO FUNDS. UM WE HAD A TIFF FUNDS RECEIVED THE PAYMENTS AND LOW TAXES COLLECTED AND DISTRIBUTED BY FRANKLIN AND LINCOLN COUNTIES, MUCH LIKE PROPERTY TAXES. MOST JUST TIFF FUNDS ARE CONSIDERED. SCHOOL TIPS. JUST THIS IS JUST A REMINDER OF WHAT, UM, THESE FUNDS DO WHERE THE COUNTY'S DISTRIBUTE AMOUNTS EQUAL TO THE AMOUNT SCHOOLS WOULD RECEIVE IF THE CHIPS WERE NOT IN PLACE PRIOR TO DISTRIBUTING THE BALANCE OF THE CITY ON CERTAINTY IF AGREEMENTS PRIMARILY RESIDENTIAL TIPS, THE CITY HAS AN ADDITIONAL AGREEMENT WITH THE TOWNSHIP TO REIMBURSE FOR AMOUNTS THEY WOULD RECEIVE FIRE AND AMS LEVIES IF THE TIFFS WERE NOT IN PLACE. EXPENDITURES FROM THE FUNDS ARE BASED ON REVENUES . AND SO THERE ARE SEVERAL ADJUSTMENTS THAT WERE INCLUDED WITHIN THESE FUNDS THAT ARE NECESSARY TO ACCOUNT FOR AUDITOR AND TREASURER FEES AND ACTUAL REVENUE SHARING THAT THE CITY WAS IT WAS NECESSARY TO DO DURING THE YEAR. IN ADDITION, THIS LAP SLAPPY PRESIDENTIAL TIP EXPERTS AND BLACK LICKED IF

AH HE WAS ABLE TO ACHIEVE THE VALUE THAT HE WAS DESIRING. AND AS A RESULT IS WILLING TO, UH SELL THE PROPERTY FOR $3.85 MILLION.

POSTED UP RESOLUTION ARE 43 2022. AND JUST ON RESOLUTION, 43. I JUST WANT TO THANK JOE AND THE TEAM FOR WORKING SO HARD TO MAKE THIS POSSIBLE. OBVIOUSLY THIS LAND WAS ORIGINALLY PURCHASED IN DID THE INDIVIDUAL HAD ALL INTENTION OF DEVELOPING A RESIDENTIAL E. WE HAVE TO HAVE A LENGTHY CONVERSATION WITH THE LANDOWNER.

AND GET THEM TO READ TO A FAIR PURCHASE PRICE. WE CAN THEN USE THIS PROPERTY FOR A CIVIC PURPOSE AND TAKE OUT A NUMBER OF HOMES THAT WOULD HAVE BEEN RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPED THERE. SO AGAIN, I REALLY APPRECIATE THE TEAM'S EFFORT TO MAKE THAT HAPPEN. SECOND HAND. RESOLUTION ARE 44 2020 TO A RESOLUTION TO AUTHORIZE THE CITY MANAGER TO ENTER INTO A 2023 HEALTH SERVICES CONTRACT BETWEEN THE CITY OF NEW ALBANY, OHIO, AND THE DISTRICT ADVISORY COUNCIL, THE FRANKLIN COUNTY GENERAL HEALTH DISTRICT IN FRANKLIN COUNTY PUBLIC JOE. THANK YOU, FOR THIS IS OUR STANDARD OPERATING CONTRACT WITH FRANKLIN COUNTY. FRANKLIN COUNTY PROVIDES OUR HEALTH DEPARTMENT SERVICES FOR BOTH FRANKLIN AND LINCOLN COUNTIES. THERE HAVE BEEN A COUPLE OF TWEAKS TO THE CONTRACT, ACTUALLY. WE'RE BOUND AND I'VE BEEN WORKING ON THIS UP UNTIL THIS AFTERNOON, SO I DIDN'T HAVE A FINAL COPY TO PROVIDE YOU WITH THAT LEGISLATION. THE MAIN POINTS I WANTED TO BRING UP ARE THERE IS THEY'RE ASKING FOR A 3% INCREASE

[01:00:08]

UM, IN NO WAY, WITH THE CONTRACT BEGINNING DIFFERENT ANY LESS FAVORABLE TO US THAN WHAT WE PREVIOUSLY ENTERED INTO IN PRIOR YEARS. BUT IF COUNSEL WOULD, UH I PREFER I CAN BE HAPPY TO DISTRIBUTE THE CONTRACT. AFTER WE GET THINGS WRAPPED UP, HOPEFULLY TOMORROW OR THURSDAY.

ENJOY. THAT CONTRACT ALSO COVERS OUR PORTION OF THE CITY IN LICKING COUNTY. YES AND THE REASON I'M BRINGING IT TONIGHT, IS IT TECHNICALLY, UM WE WOULD NEED TO BE UNDER CONTRACT WITH FRANKLIN COUNTY AS OF JANUARY, 1ST. AND THIS IS OUR LAST MEETING OF THE YEAR. ADDITIONAL QUESTIONS ON THE RESOLUTION. OPEN THE PUBLIC HEARING ANYONE FROM THE PUBLIC LIKE TO SPEAK REGARDING RESOLUTION OR 44 2022. AIN'T NO PUBLIC COMMENT WILL CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING. IS THERE A MOTION ON THE RESOLUTION? MOVE. ADOPTION OF RESOLUTION ARE 44 2020 TO TAKE IT. COUNCIL MEMBER SHELL COUNCIL MEMBER DEREK YES. COUNCIL MEMBER TEST? YES COUNCIL MEMBER FELLOWS ? YES, YES, YES, YES, POSTERS RESOLUTION ARE 44 2022. RESOLUTION ARE 45 22 22, A RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO AMEND THE CONSTRUCTION MANAGER AT RISK CONTRACT FOR THE ROADS RUN TO PROJECT TO INCLUDE PHASE TWO OF THE TAYLOR FARM PARK PROJECT, CHARLIE. YEP THE SECOND STRING TONIGHT. SO, UM SO TAYLOR FARM PHASE ONE PROJECT IS CURRENTLY IN CONSTRUCTION THERE. THIS INITIAL PHASE OF CONSTRUCTION INCLUDES THE CONSTRUCTION OF THE PERIMETER LOOPS, THE WALKING PATHS AND ALSO SOME SOME BOARDWALK SECTIONS WOULD DECK BOARDWALK SECTIONS THAT WILL BE OPEN BEGINNING AND SPRING. WE ARE MOVING RIGHT ALONG WITH PHASE TWO OF CONSTRUCTION. IT IS WELL WELL ALONG THE WAY WITH REGARD TO THE DESIGN. UM AND IN FACT, WE TOOK IT TO A RB LAST NIGHT AND PRESENTED AN UPDATE TO THEM AS WELL. UM THIS LEGISLATION IS REQUESTING APPROVAL TO MODIFY THE CONTRACT WITH MR CONSTRUCTION. THE CMR CONTRACT THAT WE HAVE WITH THEM FOR ROSE AROUND BASE TO AMEND THAT CONTRACT TO ALSO INCLUDE PHASE TWO OF TAYLOR FARM PARK. I THINK THERE'S A LOT OF GOOD REASONS WHY THE CMR DELIVERY METHOD IS AN IDEAL METHOD FOR THIS PARTICULAR CONSTRUCTION PHASE ONE AGAIN THAT'S CURRENTLY IN CONSTRUCTION. IT WAS COMPETITIVELY BID. UM WE PUT IT OUT IN OUR TYPICAL PROCESS. WE RECEIVED ONE BID. UM AND IT WAS IT WAS A FAIR BID, AND WE'RE HAPPY WITH THE WORK, BUT I THINK THAT IT'S EVIDENCE THAT, UM UH, WE NEED TO MAKE SURE THAT WE WERE ABLE TO ENGAGE AND HAVE CONTACT WITH QUALITY CONTRACTORS TO GET THIS WORK DONE. PHASE TWO OF CONSTRUCTION ALSO INCLUDES A LOT OF I'D SAY INDIVIDUAL SCOPES , SO THERE'S UTILITY EXTENSION WORK. THERE'S GRADING WORK, WHICH IS TYPICAL OF AN EXCAVATION CONTRACTOR. BUT THERE'S ALSO A LOT OF LANDSCAPING WORK AND NONSTANDARD MATERIAL PLACEMENT, AND THERE'S ALSO THE CONSTRUCTION OF A RESTROOM BUILDING. AND OTHER THINGS. SO IF ANY EVENT THAT THE CITY WERE TO BID THIS IN THE CONVENTIONAL METHOD WE WOULD BE VERY LIKELY TO OBTAIN A PRIME PRIMARY CONTRACTOR WHO WOULD BE THEN SETTING OUT MANY SECTIONS OF THIS WORK. THE CMR PROCESS, BASICALLY, UH, DIVIDES ALL OF THIS UP AS PART OF ITS DELIVERY METHOD, SO IT WILL AWARD INDIVIDUAL PROJECTS TO INDIVIDUAL CONTRACTORS THAT SPECIALIZE IN THOSE SPECIFIC AREAS. SO AT THE END OF THE DAY , I THINK THAT WILL GET A MORE COMPETITIVELY BIG PROJECT FOR THE. FOR THIS PROJECT AT THE SAME TIME MEASURE CONSTRUCTION HAS HAS AGREED THAT THEY WILL CONTINUE TO HONOR THEY'RE THE

[01:05:07]

SO PHASE TWO INCLUDES, UM THE COMMUNITY GARDENS WILL BE LOCATED THERE. THERE'S I THINK THERE'S 85 COMMUNITY GARDEN SPACES THAT WILL BE PROVIDED. WE'RE GOING TO BE RE REHABBING, REFURBISHING THE EXISTING CHICKEN COOP. UM AND THEN WE'RE GOING TO BE BUILDING SORT OF A MATCHING RESTROOM BUILDING THAT WILL THAT WILL MIMIC THE CHICKEN COOP. THERE'S ALSO SOME ACCESSORY STRUCTURES AND THERE'S SOME PARKING AND LANDSCAPING AND OTHER SEATING ARRANGEMENTS THAT WILL BE INCLUDED WITH THAT BARN BE SOMEHOW RESTORED. THE BARN AND THE BARN WILL NOT BE RESTORED. WE WILL BE AROUND IT TO KEEP PEOPLE OUT OF YOU GOT IT ? WE SHOULD HAVE WORK WORK. WE SHOULD HAVE A FENCE UP HERE, PROBABLY IN THE NEXT WITHIN THE MONTH. WITHIN A MONTH'S TIME, WE'LL HAVE THAT FENCED OFF. WE ARE WORKING WITH A BARN RESTORATION CONTRACTOR TO COME IN AND PUT IN A TEMPORARY FOUNDATIONS. BASICALLY THERE ARE SECTIONS OF THE BARNES FOUNDATION THAT ARE ACTUALLY ALCOHOLIC GROUND, SO IT'S IMPORTANT FOR US NOW TO GET IN THERE AND BASICALLY STABILIZE AND SUPPORT THOSE AREAS THAT ARE NOT NOT SUPPORTED. NOW THAT WILL HELP IT. HELP TO ENSURE THAT NOT FALL DOWN IN THE MEANTIME, WHILE WHILE WE'RE WAITING FOR THAT FINAL IMPROVEMENTS ABOVE THE BARN AND FARMHOUSE B PHASE THREE OR IS THAT INCLUDED IN PHASE TWO I THINK THERE'S THREE YEAH. SORRY YEAH, I THINK THE FINAL PHASING OF ALL THIS IT YOU KNOW, IT'S STILL SUBJECT TO, YOU KNOW , FUNDING AND OTHER DISCUSSIONS , BUT, YEAH, I THINK THAT WE'RE GOING TO BE KIND OF BITING OFF PIECES OF THE APPLE WITH REGARD TO THE YOU KNOW, WHAT ARE WE GOING TO DO WITH THE ACTUAL HOMESTEAD? THE HOME BUILDING ITSELF WOULD HAVE BEEN DOING WITH THE BARN STRUCTURE. THOSE ARE DEFINITELY THE TWO THINGS THAT ARE GOING TO BE REMAINING UPON COMPLETION OF PHASE TWO. AND ROSE RUN. PHASE TWO WILL BE COMPLETED. IT STARTS IN AUGUST WILL BE COMPLETED IN 2024. IS THAT A LONGER YEAH. SO WE HAVE TO. WE REALLY HAVE TO DRILL DOWN ON THAT SCHEDULE. THERE'S BECAUSE I GUESS FOR A LOT OF REASONS WE'RE GOING TO BE IN IN CONSTRUCTION OF MARKET STREET EXTENSION THE ROUNDABOUT ALONG RUNS, WE'RE GOING TO HAVE ANY ROAD. UM SO THE INTERSECTION OF THIRD STREET AND US 62 IS GOING TO BE COMPLETELY RECONFIGURED.

UM WE ARE UNDERWAY WITH THE INTERCHANGE IMPROVEMENTS AT STATE ROUTE 1 61 IN THE U. S.

62. SO THERE'S A LOT OF ACTIVITY ALONG THAT CORRIDOR, AND WE NEED TO BE VERY MINDFUL OF THE TIMING AND THE TRAFFIC INTERRUPTION. WE ARE. WE ARE PLANNING TO RECONSTRUCT THAT. THAT SECTION OF DUBLIN GRANVILLE ROAD IN FRONT OF WHAT IS THE OLD POLICE BUILDING AND THE OLD DUKE AND DUCHESS BUILDING AS WELL? SO WE'RE GOING TO HAVE TO FACE THAT VERY INTENTIONALLY IN COORDINATION WITH ALL THE OTHER PROJECTS, SO AS FAR AS THE FINAL COMPLETION OF THAT I WANT TO KIND OF HESITATED TO SHARE ANYTHING BECAUSE I WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT WE DON'T DUPLICATE. I UNDERSTAND THAT'S GOOD. THAT'S GOOD. THAT'S GOING TO START IT NEXT AUGUST, SO THAT WOULD BE SITE CRAMP AND EVERYTHING ELSE. YEAH I THINK AS IT IS RIGHT NOW , WE ANTICIPATE THAT WE WILL MOST LIKELY BEGIN WORK WITH THE PARKING STRUCTURE. THAT WAS MOST LIKELY THE FIRST PORTION OF WORK

[01:10:06]

I KNOW. I KNOW. THE ISSUE HAS BEEN. YOU KNOW THE HEIGHT OF THAT THE STEP, AFRAID SOMEBODY'S GONNA DRIVE RIGHT OFF THE SIDE PERSON ON A BIKE OR SOMETHING IS GONNA GO RIGHT OVER. I EXPECT I EXPECT THAT WE'LL ALL BE ADDRESSED AS PART OF A RESIDENT BASED IMPROVEMENTS. IT WON'T BE A REPLACEMENT. IT'S GOING TO BE SOME SOME TEMPORARY AGREEMENT AESTHETICALLY. AND SAFE. RIGHT? HMM WE DON'T HAVE FINAL DESIGNS ON ROSE RUN TWO COMPLETED IS THAT CORRECT? CORRECT. OKAY, SO UM, VETERANS MEMORIAL AND THINGS LIKE THAT. WE'RE STILL KIND OF DISCUSSING, OKAY? AND THEN IN TAYLOR FARM. UM. DO WE HAVE ANY PATHS OPENED UP YET OUT THERE AT ALL? THEY'RE NOT. THEY'RE STILL ACTIVE. THEY ARE ACTIVELY WORKING ON THE BOARDWALK CONSTRUCTION. ALL THE HELICAL PILES HAVE BEEN SET CENTER ONE. CONSTRUCTION IS OUT THERE ACTUALLY PLACING THE BOARDWALK NOW. SO THE GOAL THIS YEAR I THINK, JUST BASED ON THE TIMING OF EVERYTHING IS THAT EVERYTHING IS GRADED. EXCAVATED AND STONED. AND LEFT IN A CONDITION THAT, UM IN THE SPRING, WHEN THE WHEN THE ASPHALT PLANTS OPEN, UM WE'RE GOING TO BE WOULD BE ABLE TO PAVE IT VERY EARLY IN THE SPRING AND OPEN IT UP. THIS MIGHT NOT BE PART OF YOUR SCOPE. BUT ONCE THAT PARK IS DEVELOPED A WEEK, CONSIDERING DIFFERENT ZONES OUT THERE, SO IF SOMEBODY HAS A MEDICAL EMERGENCY, MUCH LIKE DOUBLE HAMMER THEY HAVE THAT PARKING GREEN ZONE RED ZONE. AND SORT OF THE EMERGENCY DEPARTMENTS. NO YOU KNOW YOU'RE BACK IN THE BACK END OF THAT PARK WHERE TO FIND YOU BACK THERE. YEAH. WE COULD DO SOMETHING LIKE THAT OUT OF NO, WE'VE DEFINED THAT YET, BUT YOU KNOW IF THERE'S A OVER THE YEARS THEY BECAME AN ISSUE OF BEVEL HEIGHT. ALRIGHT, SOMEBODY HAVE A MEDICAL EMERGENCY AND EMERGENCY PARTNER WOULD KNOW. WHAT SIDE OF THE PARK THEY WERE ON, AND IT MIGHT MAKE SENSE TO THE TAILOR FARM BECAUSE IT'S GOING TO BE AN EXPENSIVE PARK. SOMEBODY GETS INJURED OR SOMETHING. THANK YOU CAN CONSULT WITH THE DEPARTMENT AND SEE WHAT THEIR PREFERENCES OR MAYBE NOT JUST A SUGGESTION. SURE. DIDN'T WE DO SOME UPGRADES FOR THE 911 CELL PHONE LOCATOR? THAT'S NEXT. GEN. 911 IT'S NOT FULLY IMPLEMENTED, WE CAN NARROW PEOPLE DOWN TO THE EXACT LOCATION. OKAY WE CAN DO IS THAT IF WE HAVE A 91 CALL, AND WE'RE NOT ABLE TO LOCATE THE PERSON IF WE DEEM IT LIFE AND DEATH SITUATION WE CAN MAKE A PHONE CALL THE COMPANY THE PHONE COMPANIES, AND THEY CAN PIN IT FOR US SO WHICH UNFORTUNATELY HAVE TO DO FROM TIME TO TIME. SO UM, ONE OF THE THINGS THAT PEOPLE ARE, TOO WE HAD SEPARATE THERE'S TWO DIFFERENT WAYS TO ENTER THE PARK COMPUTER FOR ROADS, AND THAT WAS ONE OF THE REASONS THAT WE HAD DID THE ZONES AS WELL. AND I THINK OF THAT. NEXT GENERATION 911 INDIVIDUAL PHONE USER HAS TO OPT INTO THE TECHNOLOGY AND IT'S AND IT'S UH, IT'S COMING ALONG, BUT I DON'T THINK IT'S NOT TO THE POINT WHERE MIGHT APPEAR. YOU KNOW, PEOPLE THINK THAT WE CAN ACTUALLY PINPOINT YOUR EXACT LOCATION WITH PINGING. IT'S GENERALLY WE CAN GET WITHIN 500 FT. YEAH, I WAS. I WAS ORDERING A NEW IPHONE TODAY. FOR EXAMPLE , THEY WANTED TO CHARGE AN EXTRA $100 FOR 911 EMERGENCY LOCATION.

IS THAT PART OF THAT? YEAH, THAT'S THAT'S BUILD THAT INTO YOUR PHONE OR SOMETHING. THAT'S PART OF IT. YOU KNOW, THERE'S A THERE'S A LOT OF DISCUSSION RIGHT NOW. THERE WITH THE

[01:15:03]

GRANVILLE ROAD, SO THE NORTH SIDE OF DUBLIN. GREENVILLE ROAD IS WHAT'S GOING TO TAKE YOU INTO TILLER FARM. THE SOUTH SIDE OF DUBLIN. GRANVILLE ROAD IS WHAT'S GOING TO TAKE YOU ACROSS, YOU KNOW, SUGAR RUN AND THEN OVER TO GREEN'S WORK, WHERE THAT PATH THAT WAS CONSTRUCTED. LAST YEAR, MAYBE TWO YEARS AGO THAT INTERSECTIONS SO BUSY. IS IT GOING TO BE FOR THE PEDESTRIAN LIKE? DON'T GO, GO. YOU KNOW WHAT I'M SAYING? SO IT TELLS THE PEDESTRIAN HARLAN ROAD HARLEM AND THERE ARE PEDESTRIAN ACTIVATED BUTTONS AND TED'S SIGNAL AND PET PHASES THAT ARE

[01:20:06]

YEAH, SIDE OF ONE SINGLE MOST ITSELF. SORRY, NORTH SIDE OF 1 61. THAT'S CUTS INTO THE PATH THAT'S RUNNING THAT THAT'S RIGHT IT SO THERE WILL BE A SHORT A SHORT TRAIL LENGTH. THAT KIND OF TAKES YOU AWAY FROM THE INTERSECTION ITSELF. IT'S PROBABLY ON ABOUT A 45 DEGREE ANGLE. AND IT'S JUST BASED ON A PERPENDICULAR CROSSING OF ROADS RUN. AND THAT'S WHAT IT WILL. IT WILL CROSS THE CREEK AT THAT LOCATION AND THEN TIE INTO USING THE EXISTING BRIDGE. YES EXISTING BRIDGE TO GET OVER AND THEN. OH I'M ACTUALLY NO SO THE EXISTING BRIDGES IS SO WE'RE BASICALLY PUTTING A DEDICATED LEFT TURN LANE. SO AS YOU'RE DRIVING EASTBOUND ON DOUBLE GRANVILLE ROAD THERE'S NOW DEDICATED LEFT TURN LANE TO TURN ON TO HARLEM ROAD TO GO NORTH.

SO THE ADDITIONAL WITH THAT WAS NEEDED TO ACCOUNT FOR THAT ADDITIONAL TURN LANE WE WERE ABLE TO ACCOMMODATE WITHIN THE LIMIT OF THAT EXISTING BRIDGE. SO THAT'S THE VEHICULAR BRIDGE.

THERE WILL BE A SECOND PEDESTRIAN BRIDGES THAT WOULD WOODBRIDGE THAT'S GOING TO LOOK VERY SIMILAR TO WHAT WE SEE IN ROSEMONT PARK THAT WILL BE A DEDICATED PEDESTRIAN PATH. RIGHT THAT NORTHWEST CORNER TO TEACH YOU IN THE TAYLOR FARM. THANK YOU. I LIKE THAT. YEAH.

ADDITIONAL QUESTIONS. I JUST WANT MORE AND MR KISS BROUGHT UP THE IDEA OF OFFENSE THAT GOES AROUND THE BARN. UM THERE'S SOME SIGNS HERE WE COULD PUT UP FOR SKUNK HABITAT PRESERVATION ZONE . MAYBE THAT WOULD KEEP THE KIDS OUT. I DON'T KNOW IF THERE'S ACTUALLY A STRENGTH THERE, BUT GOOD, WELL PLACED SIGN. COULD, YOU KNOW, MAKE A DIFFERENCE? I'LL SEND YOU A PICTURE IF YOU WANT. YEAH WE DO HAVE THERE IS ELECTRIC OUT THERE SO WE WILL BE WHEN WE WERE. WE MAY ELECTRIFIED DEFENSE OR SOMETHING ELSE, BUT JOKING. WE'RE GOING TO HAVE CAMERAS AND LIGHTS AND OTHER THINGS OUT THERE AS WELL JUST TO ANTICIPATION OF IT'S BECOMING AN ATTRACTIVE NUISANCE. YEAH. I WOULD OPEN THE PUBLIC HEARING ON A RESOLUTION TO OUR 45 2022. IS THERE ANY PUBLIC COMMENTS? CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING. IS THERE A MOTION ON THE RESOLUTION? MOVE FOR THE ADOPTION OF RESOLUTION ARE 45 2022. SECOND. COUNCIL MEMBER KISSED YES MEMBER DIRECT SHOT. YES YES. COUNCIL MEMBER CARLOS?

[13. REPORTS OF REPRESENTATIVES]

BUT IF THERE IS, I'D BE HAPPY TO GET MORE INFORMATION FOR YOU. ALSO WE ADOPTED THE PUBLIC POLICY AGENDA. VOTE AT THAT MEETING. UH, THEY THE. ADMINISTRATIVE STAFF INFORMED US THAT THEY HAD BEEN IN TOUCH WITH THE FEDERAL RAILROAD ADMINISTRATION REGARDING POTENTIAL AMTRAK CONNECTIONS TO THE TO THE CITY OF COLUMBUS. TWO. CONNECTIONS THAT THEY WERE MOST INTERESTED IN WERE THE CONNECTION BETWEEN COLUMBUS AND PITTSBURGH AND THEN ANOTHER CONNECTION BETWEEN COLUMBUS AND CHICAGO, APPARENTLY, THE FEDERAL RAILROAD ADMINISTRATION ACTUALLY REACHED OUT AND WAS SOLICITING. COMMENTS OR SUBMITTAL FROM FROM MARCY. SO THEY VIEW THAT AS A VERY POSITIVE MOVE. THAT'S THE FIRST TIME THAT SOMETHING LIKE THAT HAD HAPPENED. IT'S NOT AN INDICATION OF WHETHER OR NOT ANYTHING IS IMMINENT, BUT AT LEAST WE HAVE THE POTENTIAL TO BE CONSIDERED FOR FUTURE ROUTES, AND I THINK THEY BELIEVE THEY SAID THAT WE ARE THE ONLY REMAINING MAJOR REGION IN THE COUNTRY NOT TO HAVE ACCESS TO THE AMTRAK NETWORK. WELL WE ARE NOW THE SILICONE HEART, RIGHT? UH STATE OF THE REGION IS GOING TO BE HELD ON MARCH 31ST OF NEXT YEAR, AND THE THEME IS GOING TO BE TRANSPORTATION SEEMS KIND OF TIMELY. AH MORE INFORMATION WILL

UM AND THAT'S A THE TOP. BUT IF YOU LOOK DOWN AT THE BOTTOM AND THE INCOME TAX BREAKDOWN, YOU'LL SEE THAT THE CATEGORY THAT WE ARE BEHIND LAST YEAR IN OUR IS WITH HOLDINGS. UM IT'S REFLECTIVE OF PROCESSING, REMOTE WORK, REFUNDS AND OTHER FACTORS CONSIDERED PREVIOUSLY AND PROJECTIONS. NETTED AGAINST THE INCREASES IN CONSTRUCTION, WITHHOLDING AND CERTAIN ABATEMENTS IN THE BUSINESS PARK REACHING THEIR END AND, UM, INCOME TAX SHARING EXPIRING FOR THOSE ENTITIES THAT HAD THE ABATEMENTS GOING SO WHILE. YOU KNOW OUR INCOME TAXES MORE THAN LAST YEAR THAT WAS HOLDING HIS REFLECTIVE OF WHAT WE ORIGINALLY ANTICIPATED, BUT

[01:30:03]

[01:35:03]

FEATURES THAT WE MIGHT BE ABLE TO HELP FROM THE WEST AND THE SOUTH PERSPECTIVE. UM WHICH MIGHT CAPTURE SOME OF IT. UM WE WERE THINKING, MAYBE ON THE END OF THE CLOSEST TO THE ROAD.

MAYBE DOING A TIERED SEATING JUST USING DIRT. KIND OF LIKE TO HAVE WHICH MAYBE WOULD HELP IN THE WESTERN WIND THAT WOULD BE COMING IN. WE WILL HAVE NINE FT FENCES WITH SCREENING ALL THE WAY AROUND. SO THAT SHOULD ALSO HELP SOME OF THAT AS WELL. AND THEN THE REST WILL TRY TO DO WITH UM, THE SHADE STRUCTURE WE'RE THINKING ABOUT, I THINK WILL ALSO HELP IN THAT AND SO IT ADDS PICNIC TABLES, AND THAT'S WHAT WE WANT TO PUT UNDER THE SHADE STRUCTURES FOR PEOPLE THAT TO GET A BREAK BECAUSE YOU'RE RIGHT OUT IN THE MIDDLE OF THE SUN, AND I KNOW IN THE COURTS THAT I PLAY HERE LOCALLY. UM THERE'S A COUPLE OF COURTS ON THE FOUR THAT WE USE HERE.

THERE'S A COUPLE OF COURTS THAT HAVE TREES AND A COUPLE OF QUARTZ THAT DON'T AIM DURING THE SPRING. NOBODY WANTS THE ONES WITH THE TREES. IN THE FALL. THEY DON'T WANT THEM BECAUSE OF THE LEAVES. BUT IN THE SUMMER THERE, THE MOST REQUESTED ONES OUT THERE. AND SO IF WE CAN WORK AWAY TO MAYBE DO THIS, I THINK AND AGAIN, WE'RE STILL SAVING. PROBABLY A QUARTER MILLION DOLLARS AT LEAST THIS PROJECT, MOVING IT OUT. DEFINITELY A PLACE TO SIT IN THE SHADE IN BETWEEN. DIMENSIONS. OR WHATEVER YOU CALL IT DROWNS, AND THEN WE COME TO A RESOLUTION ON THE RESTROOMS AND PARKING. WELL, THE HAMMER LOCATION YEAH, I NOTICED THAT. WE CURRENTLY HAVE RESTROOMS THAT HAVE BEEN APPROPRIATED FOR OUT THERE. UM AROUND COURT FACILITY GOES RESTROOMS. GO WITH IT. WE APPROPRIATED THAT EARLIER TONIGHT AND BETHANY'S PRESENTATION SO. THAT MONEY IS THERE? I GUESS WE CAN HAVE A CONVERSATION LATER. IF THOSE STAY THERE IF WE WANT TO RE APPROPRIATE THOSE FUNDS, MAYBE FOR SOME OF THESE OTHER THINGS THAT WE'RE TALKING ABOUT THE AS OF RIGHT NOW. YES THEY FOLLOW THE FACILITY. THE FACILITY GOES . IF WE USE THE BEVEL HEIMER LOCATION THAT CAN BE USED IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE COURTS. ALL THAT STUFF WORKOUT THING THEY ABSOLUTELY THE ECONOMIES OF SCALE MAKES SENSE. AND YOU HAVE MORE PEOPLE OUT THERE JUST USING THE AREA. WHEN YOU HAVE THE FITNESS. I THINK THAT WHOLE SECTION IS GOING TO BE ACTIVATED QUITE A BIT WHEN IT'S ALL SAID AND DONE. REALLY EXCITED ABOUT THAT. I THINK I THINK IT SAVES MONEY, BUT IT ALSO I THINK THAT WORD IS A GOOD WORD ACTIVATES THAT WHOLE AREA IN A WAY THAT WILL BE REALLY COMPLIMENTARY OF WHAT ELSE IS GOING ON THERE.

THANK YOU AND JOE FOR ALL YOUR DILIGENT WORK ON THE TOTAL COMES IN LIKE IT ONCE. SIX I THINK YOU'RE TALKING 15 JUST BUMPS IT UP TO ABOUT 1616 50 SOMETHING IN THAT RANGE BUT STILL FOR THE SHELTER. JUST OVERALL. THE WHOLE THING. YEAH YEAH, SO IF WE'RE COMFORTABLE WITH THEM
