NOT ONLY WERE THE YOU KNOW THE ACTORS AND PERFORMERS INCREDIBLE, BUT THE SET I MEAN, I DON'T KNOW HOW THEY PUT THAT OFF IN THAT IN THAT FORM. IT WAS UNBELIEVABLE. EXACTLY UM, IF THE GUY'S NAME IS PHIL DOWNING, HE'S ACTUALLY VOLUNTEER SAMANTHA DOLL GONE INSIDE. AND YOU KNOW I WAS THERE UNTIL MIDNIGHT. ONE O'CLOCK IN THE MORNING. I CAN ONLY IMAGINE. 567. I MEAN, JUST BEAUTIFUL AND STRUCTURALLY SOUND . YEAH CARPENTER SKILLS WERE ON DISPLAY. NO DOUBT. WELL THANK YOU FOR COMING TONIGHT. WHAT WHAT CAN WHAT CAN I HELP YOU WITH? WELL THANK YOU FOR HAVING ME THERE AND COUNSEL. I'M HERE FOR AN ISSUE THAT YOU PROBABLY DIDN'T EVER IMAGINE. YOU'RE GOING TO HEAR ABOUT CITY COUNCIL, BUT I'M HERE TONIGHT BRING YOUR ATTENTION TO AN ONGOING SET OF GUIDELINES AND EDITED FOR POLICIES THAT NORMALLY PUBLIC SCHOOLS. UM THAT ARE IN VIOLATION OF NINTH TITLE NINE. UM SO HERE'S A LITTLE BIT OF BACKGROUND. AND THEN A LITTLE BIT. I'LL TELL YOU WHY. I THINK IT'S IMPORTANT TO YOU, UM ON AUGUST 10TH, SOME SOMEWHAT THREATENING EMAIL WAS SENT TO TEACHERS AND STAFF AND ON AUGUST 12TH AND EMAIL WAS SENT TO THE PARENTS. THESE WERE QUITE FAST. SUPERINTENDENT SAWYER'S UM AND INDICATED THAT OUR HOST OF POLICIES HAVE BEEN CHANGED OVER THE SUMMER BRAG AND NEW ADMINISTRATIVE GUIDELINES WERE IMPLEMENTED TO PROHIBIT TEACHERS AND STAFF FROM HONORING STUDENT REQUEST A PREFERRED NAMES AND PRONOUNS WITH A PRINT WITHOUT PARENTAL PERMISSION. SO I REALIZED THAT THIS DOES NOT SOUND LIKE A PATH BUT GIVE ME JUST A MINUTE. UM FOR SEVERAL MONTHS NOW. STUDENTS PARENTS, MENTAL HEALTH, PROFESSIONAL DELTA PARTICULAR ADVOCATES AND OTHERS HAVE PRESENTED WELL RESUME RESEARCH AND EVIDENCE BACK PERSONALLY GOT READY FOR [00:05:05] INTERESTS ABOUT BEING TRANS ABOUT BEING BULLIED AT SCHOOL AND SUBTLE AND NOT SO SUBTLE WAYS. AND ALSO IN THE COMMUNITY. I CALLED THE POLICE DEPARTMENT TO MY HOUSE AND YOUR POLICE DEPARTMENT WAS EXCELLENT WITH, YOU KNOW, WITH SOME FAMILY THERE'S STATISTICAL FACTS THAT HAVE BEEN SHARED WITH THE BOARD RELATED TO TRANSMUTE SUICIDE CAR WILL HELP MENTAL HEALTH AND MENTAL WELL BEING. MY OWN CHILDHOOD SHARED THEIR EXPERIENCES OF BEING BULLIED AT WORK AT SCHOOL. UH IF YOU WANT TO LEARN ANYTHING ABOUT IT, BECAUSE, YOU KNOW, PULL UP THE YOUTUBE VIDEOS FROM THE BOARD MEETING BECAUSE MANY STUDENTS HAVE SHARED THE EXPERIENCES WITH THE BOARD. BUT THE PROBLEM IS THAT THE RESPONSE HAS RANGED FROM PLACATING AND PUSH BACK TO LIES AND OXIDANT. I'M WILLING TO HEAR UNWILLING TO LEARN I'M GOING TO CHANGE. AND SO NOW WE FIND OURSELVES HERE. SO I MET A GROUP OF PARENTS THROUGH THIS, BUT I ACTUALLY DIDN'T KNOW BEFORE. BECAUSE OF THIS ISSUE, AND WITH THAT, WITH NAPLES FORMER MEMBER OF YOU KNOW, TWO OR THREE AT A TIME, BUT I SUDDENLY TWO AT A TIME AND THEN PASTA LAWYERS. AND WE'VE RESEARCHED AND RECEIVED INFORMATION VIA PUBLIC INFORMATION REQUESTS AT WITH BIN WITH JUST REFUSAL TO RESCIND THESE CONSCRIPTS DISCRIMINATORY CHANGES. POLICY AND GUIDELINE. 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] ROADBLOCK, UM, AND WE THINK IT'S IMPORTANT FOR YOU TO UNDERSTAND WHAT'S HAPPENING HERE. AGAIN I THINK IT'S GOING TO TALK MORE. WAY MORE THAN JUST THE SCHOOL JUST STARTED STUDENT. THEY SAID TO US, IT'S JUST A SMALL. THAT DOESN'T MATTER. IT DOESN'T MATTER HOW MANY ARE THERE'S ONE STUDENT. BECAUSE DISCRIMINATED AGAINST THE THAT'S NOT A. NICE CLEAR ABOUT WHO SHOULD BE PROTECTED. SO I'VE BEEN WORKING WITH A GROUP OF PARENTS AND I'M JUST GOING TO TELL YOU WHAT ARE YOU KIND OF UNDERSTAND? WHAT WOULD THE WORKING ON SO I WAS OUR FIRST GOAL IS TO RESCIND TRANSFER. TRANS DISCRIMINATE WORK. POLICY IS POLICY CHANGES AND ADMINISTRATIVE GUIDELINES. 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] THESE ORGANIZATIONS FROM ANY MENTAL HEALTH PROFESSIONALS. I FIND THAT TO BE IRRESPONSIBLE. 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] MATTER NOT ON TONIGHT'S AGENDA. ALRIGHT COMMISSION REPORTS. UH I DON'T BELIEVE WE'VE PROBABLY HAD ANY BOARDS AND COMMISSIONS SINCE OUR LAST MEETING. BE FROM AROUND . WE HAD AN IDEA. I THAT'S RIGHT. I DID DRIVE BY WEDNESDAY , TRYING TO REMEMBER WHAT THE HECK WAS GOING ON. I COMMITTED. 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 [9. SECOND READING OF ORDINANCES AND PUBLIC HEARING] HEARING ORDINANCE SO 39 2022 ANNUAL APPROPRIATION ORDINANCE IN ORDER TO MAKE APPROPRIATIONS FOR CURRENT EXPENSES AND OTHER EXPENDITURES OF THE CITY OF NEW ALBANY STATE OF OHIO DURING THE [00:20:01] FISCAL YEAR ENDING DECEMBER 31 2023 THANK YOU, MAYOR. UM I'M NOT REALLY SURE IT SEEMS LIKE IT'S BEEN FOREVER AGO SINCE WE ACTUALLY LOOKED AT THE BUDGET THIS ORDINANCE PROVIDES FOR THE ADOPTION OF THE 2023 ANNUAL BUDGET. A BUDGET NOTEBOOK CONTAINING THE DETAILED BREAKDOWN OF REVENUES EXPENDITURES WAS PROVIDED TO YOU GUYS ON NOVEMBER 1ST. AND WE ALSO HAD OUR BUDGET WORKSHOP ON NOVEMBER 10TH. AND THEN LAST WEEK I ATTACHED TO UPDATED ELECTRONIC VERSION OF THE PROPOSED 2023 ANNUAL BUDGET TO THE CITY WEBSITE. FOLLOWING THESE DISCUSSIONS AFTER FURTHER REVIEW, AND HIS NEW INFORMATION HAS BECOME AVAILABLE TO NECESSARILY MAKE ANY UP, MAKE UPDATES TO THE APPROPRIATION ORDINANCE. AND THEN A SUMMARY OF THESE ADJUSTMENTS WAS INCLUDED IN THE ELECTRONIC VERSION OF THE BUDGET THAT I UPLOADED LAST WEEK ON PAGE 2 65, AND IT WAS ALSO ATTACHED TO YOUR LEGISLATIVE REPORT AND I HANDED IT OUT, SO I'M GETTING YOU THE INFORMATION MORE THAN ME. AND THE CHANGES THAT WERE MADE, UM I'M JUST GOING TO SUMMARIZE A LITTLE BIT IN THE GENERAL FUND, AN OVERALL DECREASE IN APPROPRIATION AS NECESSARY ABOUT $22,000 HAS BEEN THAT'S BEEN INCLUDED. THE DECREASE IS ATTRIBUTED PRIMARILY TO A DECREASE IN A TRANSFER TO CAPITAL EQUIPMENT. AND THEN ALSO WE INCLUDED A HEALTH INSURANCE PREMIUM HOLIDAY. THOSE DECREASES WERE NETTED AGAINST SMALLER INCREASES THAT WERE, UM. TO PAY FOR INCENTIVES AND THEN INCLUSION OF A POSITION THAT WAS AROUND A RONI ASLEEP EXCLUDED IN THE ORIGINAL MHM IN THIS SPECIAL REVENUE FRIENDS WE HAVE THE SEVERANCE LIABILITY FUND HAD AN INCREASE TO INCLUDE AMOUNTS FOR ANTICIPATED SEVERANCE PAYOUTS, HELPING ALBANY FUND WE HAD INCREASED FOR THE INCLUSION OF ADDITIONAL UTILITIES IN LOOKING AT THIS. PREVIOUSLY WE WEREN'T INCLUDING SOLID WASTE THAT WAS JUST IN OUR GENERAL ACCOUNT. SO WE'RE NOW CHARGING THAT TO THE HEALTH OF NEW HARMONY FACILITY, UM VILLAGE CENTER TO FUND INCREASE IN THE AMOUNT OF 100 AND 5000 AND THAT WAS ESSENTIALLY INCREASED TO MATCH THE PROJECTED FUND BALANCE IN ORDER TO MAKE SURE THAT WE UTILIZE THAT TO PAY OFF. LOANS THAT THAT FUND PAYS FOR. MOVING ON TO THE CAPITAL PROJECTS FUNDS BOTH THE CAPITAL AND PARKING FERMENT FUNDS INCREASED BY $600,000 TO INCLUDE RESTROOM FACILITIES AT TWO OF THE DIFFERENT PROJECTS THAT WE HAVE GOING ON THERE. THE TAYLOR FARM PHASE TWO CONSTRUCTION AND ALSO THE RECREATION CENTER PICKLEBALL. AND THAT IS SOMETHING THAT, UM. MAY OR MAY NOT COME TO FRUITION. UH WITH THE ADDITION THE CAPITAL EQUIPMENT REPLACEMENT FUND, A DECREASE IN THE AMOUNT OF 125,000 WAS INCLUDED BECAUSE WE ACTUALLY MOVED THE PURCHASE OF A FORESTRY BUT BUCKET TRUCK TO 2022. THEY'RE ABLE TO GET A REALLY GOOD DEAL ON A TRUCK THAT BECAME AVAILABLE THAT MATCHED OUR NEEDS. UM AND THAT ALSO INCLUDED A INCREASE TO ADD AN ADDITIONAL TORNADO SIREN. AND ALSO THERE ARE A COUPLE OF LINES ON THERE THAT I HAD TO REMOVE RELATED TO SERVANTS, WHICH REPLACEMENTS THAT WERE ON THERE TWICE. THE ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT CAPITAL FUND. THERE IS A LARGE DECREASE AS YOU PROBABLY SEE IN THE AMOUNT OF ABOUT $105 MILLION . IT'S INCLUDED, UM DUE TO AN ADJUSTMENT TO THE ANTICIPATED GRANT FUNDS THAT WE EXPECT FOR THE BUSINESS PARK. UM THE DECREASE WAS NETTED AGAINST MOVING SOME OF THE APPROPRIATIONS FROM 2022 TO 2023 FOR FUNDS THAT WE ALREADY HAVE. AND WILL NOT BE EXPECT FOR 2022. AS A REMINDER THE ORDINANCE ALLOWS FOR THE TRANSFER UP TO $10,000 BETWEEN APPROPRIATION LINE ITEMS WITHIN THE SAME DEPARTMENT AND FUND. IT'S A HELPFUL MANAGEMENT TOLD FOR ME TO BE ABLE TO USE THROUGHOUT THE YEAR WHEN NEEDS ARISE BETWEEN THE DEPARTMENTS. UM THIS IS ITS DETAILED MORE IN THE BUDGET PROGRAM, BUT THIS ALLOWS THAT MOVE WITHIN THE DEPARTMENT TO HAPPEN QUARTERLY IF NEEDED. AND THEN ADDITIONALLY, THE ORDINANCE ALLOWS FOR THE DIRECTOR TO TRANSFER APPROPRIATIONS BETWEEN THE GENERAL FUND. AND VARIOUS SPECIAL REVENUE FUNDS RELATED TO THE POLICE DEPARTMENT. UM DUE TO THE VARIOUS POLICE DEPARTMENT FUNDS THAT WE HAVE, THERE COULD BE SOME EXPENSES THAT COME THROUGHOUT THE YEAR THAT WOULD BE BETTER SUITED SPENT OUT OF THOSE SPECIAL REVENUE FUNDS FOR THE POLICE. AND SO THIS ALLOWS THE TRANSFER OF APPROPRIATIONS THOSE FUNDS AND THEN THE CITY CHARTER REQUIRES THE BUDGET APPROPRIATION ORDINANCE TO BE APPROVED BY DECEMBER, 21ST. OH, [00:25:03] AND I AM RESPECTFULLY ASKING YOU TO PASS IT TONIGHT. WELL THANK YOU. I MEAN, WE SPENT A LOT OF TIME GOING OVER THE BUDGET MATERIALS, AND I JUST APPRECIATE THE FINANCE DEPARTMENTS. 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 I APPRECIATE YOU'RE LOOKING FORWARD TO THAT. UM I APOLOGIZE. I SHOULD HAVE SAID EARLIER AFTER YOUR TESTIMONY. YOU'RE FREE TO GO WHENEVER YOU WANT. YOU WANT TO SIT AROUND? GREAT NOT ENJOY THE REST OF THE EVENING. THANK YOU. AGAIN. I JUST APPRECIATE YOU ALWAYS LOOKING FORWARD AND TRYING TO USE THE LATEST TOOLS SO THAT WE CAN BE AS TRANSPARENT AS POSSIBLE WITH THE PUBLIC. THANK YOU. ALRIGHT ANY OTHER QUESTIONS REGARDING ORDINANCE? THEN WE'LL OPEN THE PUBLIC HEARING ANYONE FROM THE PUBLIC LIKE TO SPEAK REGARDING ORDINANCE 39 2022. HEARING NO PUBLIC COMMENT WILL CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING AND I WOULD MOVE FOR THE ADOPTION OF ORDINANCE 0 39 2022. SPOUTING YES. TRAVEL YES, COUNCIL MEMBER SHOP. NUMBER KISS COUNCIL MEMBER FELLAS. YES, REMEMBER DEREK? YES YES, VOTES TO 39 2022 ORDINANCE OH 41 2022 IN ORDER TO AMEND CHAPTER 113 OF THE PLANNING AND ZONING CODE OF THE CITY OF NEW ALBANY, OHIO, IS QUALIFIED WARRANTS IS AS REQUESTED BY THE CITY OF MR MAYOR. THANK YOU. THE INTENT OF THIS PROPOSED UPDATES TO CODIFIED SECTION ORDINANCE SECTION 11 13. IT'S PROVIDE CLARITY AND CONSISTENCY WITH OTHER SECTIONS OF CITY CODE REGARDING THE CRITERIA THAT THE CITY'S ARCHITECTURE REVIEW BOARD USES WHEN CONSIDERING A WAIVER, SO WAIVER IS JUST LIKE A VARIANCE, BUT A WAIVER IS THE TYPE OF APPLICATION USE ONE REQUESTING DEVIATIONS FROM THE CITY'S DESIGN GUIDELINES AND REQUIREMENTS. 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 [00:30:06] BOARD AND HAS ALSO TAKEN IT TO THE PLANNING COMMISSION FOR THEIR FORMAL, UH, REVIEW AND APPROVAL. AND SO THE CHANGES IS TO SAY, UNUSUAL BUILDING STRUCTURE OR SITE SPECIFIC CONDITIONS AND SO BUILDING STRUCTURES SITE IS THE SAME LANGUAGE THAT'S USED. THROUGHOUT OUR CODIFIED ORDINANCES FOR THE ARCHITECTURE REVIEW BOARD WHEN REVIEWING PROPOSALS IN THE VILLAGE CENTER, AND WE'VE ALSO CHANGED THE WORD CONSTRAINT TO CONDITIONS SO IT IS CONSISTENT WITH THE CITY'S VARIANTS CODE SECTION. AND SO THIS WILL PROVIDE CONSISTENCY THROUGHOUT THE CITY HAS CODIFIED ORDINANCES AND STAFF IS HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS. I'LL JUST COMMENT FROM THESE ARCHITECTURE, ATTENDING THE ARCHITECTURAL REVIEW COMMUNITY FEEL THAT THIS IS GOING TO MAKE IT EASIER FOR THEM TO BE MORE EFFECTIVE IN ADDRESSING UNIQUE SITUATIONS AND NOT GET TIED UP IN BURBAGE GIVES THEM A LITTLE MORE LATITUDE TO ADDRESS THEM APPROPRIATELY, AND THEY WERE VERY INVOLVED IN ACTUALLY WORKING ON THE LANGUAGE WITH THE ADMINISTRATION. GREAT. ALRIGHT ANY OTHER QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS REGARDING THE ORDINANCE? OPEN THE PUBLIC HEARING ANYONE FROM THE PUBLIC LIKE TO SPEAK REGARDING ORDINANCE OH 41 2022.

IT'S HARD TO TELL WITH ALL THE LIGHTS. SORRY ACTUALLY, IT IS. JUST TAKE IT FROM THE TOP. SURE. ORDINANCE SO 45 2022 APPROPRIATION AMENDMENT ORDINANCE AND ORDERED ORDINANCE TO AMEND APPROPRIATIONS FOR CURRENT EXPENSES AND OTHER EXPENDITURES OF THE CITY OF NEW ALBANY STATE OF OHIO DURING THE FISCAL YEAR ENDING DECEMBER 31 2022 TO CREATE THE POLICE. 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] . THIS IS THE FIRST STEP TO IMPROVING THE TRACKING AND SAFEGUARDING OF MONIES ACQUIRED , RECOVERED, SEIZED RECEIVED OR OTHERWISE TAKEN IN BECAUSE CUSTODY BY MEMBERS OF POLICE. 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 [00:45:03] FUNDS REQUIRE AN ADJUSTMENT TO ALLOW FOR THE REPAYMENT OF PREVIOUS ADVANCES FROM THE GENERAL FUND FOR DEBT PAYMENT OBLIGATIONS. THE OAK GROVE TO TIFF AND ALSO REQUIRES A DECREASE OF $6 MILLION IN THE CAPITAL CATEGORY AS A RESULT OF PLANNED PROJECTS NOW BEING ACCOUNTED FOR WITHIN THE ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT FUND, WHICH IS UTILIZING THE STATE INFRASTRUCTURE GRANT FUNDING FINALLY, THE WINDSOR TIP FUND REQUIRES A NET INCREASE OF 2.5 MILLION AS A RESULT OF PLANNED PARKLAND PURCHASES NETTED AGAINST MOVING THE MARKET STREET EXTENSION PROJECT TO 2023. HEALTHY NEW OMNI FUND THEIR INCREASES TO ACCOUNT FOR THE INCREASE IN UTILITIES AND PROPERTY TAX PAYMENTS, AND THE SEVENTH LIABILITY FUNDING HAS AN INCREASE TO ACCOMMODATE CURRENT YEAR SEVERANCE PAYOUTS. FINALLY THE CAPITAL FUNDS ARE ADJUSTED PROPERLY ACCOUNT FOR THE TIMING OF CERTAIN CAPITAL PROJECTS. SO 2022 VERSUS 2023, PRIMARILY ADJUSTMENTS ARE RELATED TO TAYLOR FARM TO CONSTRUCTION. DUBLIN GRANVILLE PEDESTRIAN IMPROVEMENTS IN MARKET STREET AND EXTENSION IN ADDITION TO THE TIMING OF SPENDING THE STATE INFRASTRUCTURE GRANT FUNDING RECEIVED FOR BUSINESS PARK PROJECTS. THE ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT CAPITAL FUND HAS BEEN ADJUSTED SINCE LAST READING TO BETTER REFLECT WHEN FUNDS ARE NEEDED. SIMILAR ADJUSTMENTS WERE MADE IN THE 2023 APPROPRIATIONS PRIOR TO POSTING IT ONLINE. AS A REMINDER SECTIONS. 235 INCLUDE VARIOUS PROVISIONS TO OFFER AMENDMENTS TO THE APPROPRIATION SUBSEQUENT TO THE PASSAGE OF THIS ORDINANCE AND PRIOR TO THE END OF THE YEAR IN ORDER TO MAINTAIN BUDGETARY COMPLIANCE FOR THE YEAR ENDING DECEMBER, 31ST 2022. IF YOU HAVE QUESTIONS ON THOSE, I'D BE HAPPY TO ANSWER THOSE AND THEN FINALLY, IN ADDITION TO THE APPROPRIATIONS THAT ARE INCLUDED ON THE SHEET, WE ARE REQUESTING A FLOOR AMENDMENT TO INCREASE THE BONDED IMPROVEMENT FUND, WHICH IS IN THE CAPITAL CATEGORY OF $489,353 . THIS CITY HAS RECEIVED THE FINAL AP BILL FOR UTILITY LINE BURIAL UM, FOR ROSE RUN. ONE PROJECT AND CAN OFFICIALLY BE CLOSED OUT. UM AFTER THREE YEARS , THIS FUND RECEIVED THE INITIAL BOND PROCEEDS IN 2018 INTEREST REVENUE AND INITIAL TRANSFERS TOTALING $600,000 IN CASH FROM THE RESIDENTIAL TO FUNDS FOR THE PROJECT. THE REMAINING AMOUNT WILL BE USED TO REIMBURSE PRIOR YOUR EXPENSES FOR THE PROJECT NOT INITIALLY RECORDED IN THIS FUND IN ORDER TO PAY THEM BACK. AND THAT IS IT. I KNOW IT'S A LOT. I CAN ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS THAT YOU HAVE. ALRIGHT, I HAVE A QUESTION. AND IT'S JUST MORE FROM MY UNDERSTANDING. SO ON YOUR ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT. N A. C A FUND. ON THE RETIREMENT OF THE SERIES 2013 BOND. HMM JUST SO I UNDERSTAND. WE PAID THAT BOND OFF THEN. IS THAT WHAT THE 9 447,088 WAS? FOUR YES. SO WE PAID OFF THAT DURING THE 2022 REFINANCING SO THAT ONE PAID OFF COMPLETELY. SO IT, UM OUR SECOND DEBT PAYMENT FOR THE YEAR. DIDN'T HAPPEN HAPPEN BECAUSE WE PAID OKAY AND THEN LAST QUESTION ON THE DEBT SERVICE FUND MHM. IT MENTIONS BOTH THAT 2013 BOND PLUS THE, UM OW, D A YOU JUST EXPLAIN THAT ONE MORE TIME TO BE THAT 8 57 FOR THOSE TWO YES, UM , SO YOU'LL SEE THE TWO THE 2 22 AND 2 21 FUNDS. THOSE TOTALS DON'T MATCH THE ACTUAL DECREASE IN THE DEBT SERVICE FUND BECAUSE THERE WAS ALSO THE REFINANCING ALSO INCLUDED. UM. PAY DOWN OF THE 2012 BONDS, WHICH ARE NOT PAID BY THE 2 22 TO 21 FUND. SO THERE AMOUNTS. THAT WAS THAT WERE ORIGINALLY COMING OUT ADDITIONAL AMOUNT INTO THAT, YES. ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU. THE ADDITIONAL QUESTIONS REGARDING THE ORDINANCE. WE DON'T NEED TO HAVE A SEPARATE MOTION FOR THE FLOOR AMENDMENT THAT WE NEED TO MAKE A MOTION TO AMEND TO. OKAY WOULD YOU LIKE ME TO REPEAT THE AMOUNT OR AH, SURE. PLEASE DO. IT'S THE BOND AND IMPROVEMENT FUND CAPITAL CATEGORY. $489,353E [00:50:02] THE RECORDS ACCURATE WHEN THIS MOTION GETS INTO THE MINUTES.

EITHER OF THE METRO PARK OR THE JOINT PRACTICE TRICKED OR BOTH. SO THE. BASED ON THE LAND AWAY FROM DEVELOPMENT, RIGHT SO BASED ON THE APPRAISAL THAT THE DEVELOPER WAS ABLE TO OBTAIN, WHICH WAS A LITTLE BIT DIFFERENT FROM OURS. 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.

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] OVER THE 2022 RATE. THE RATE PER CAPITA IS $9.59. 9.5996. PER CAPITA, WHICH COMES OUT TO 104,491. SO THAT THAT PART OF THE CONTRACT IS NOT ABOUT BEING DISPUTED OR. BEING ASKED FOR MODIFICATION. THERE ARE A COUPLE OF THINGS THAT WE WANTED TO DO THAT WE'RE A LITTLE BIT DIFFERENT FROM PRIOR CONTRACTS. SO WE'VE WE'VE ADDED SOME LANGUAGE. I ACTUALLY HAVE THE ORIGINAL PROPOSAL AS WELL AS OUR PROPOSED AMENDMENTS, WHICH WILL BE SUBMITTING THE FRANKLIN COUNTY TOMORROW. I DON'T HAVE ANY REASON TO THINK THAT THERE'LL BE ANY OBJECTIONS. IT'S JUST STUFF. SOME THINGS RELATED TO INTEL THAT WE WANTED TO TWEET TOO. MAXIMIZE OUR FLEXIBILITY. 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] MARKUP THAT WAS BASICALLY COMPETITIVELY BID IN 2018. AS PART OF THE ROSE RUN ONE PROJECT ARE WE HAVE LEGISLATION THAT'S ALREADY BEEN APPROVED. TO BASICALLY EXTEND THAT FOR ROSA, RUN TO AS WELL. AND THIS THIS PROJECT. THE TIMING OF THIS PROJECT MARRIES UP WELL, WITH THE BEGINNING OF THE ROSARY ONTO PROJECT. UM SO WITH THAT SAID, UM. LET'S SEE. SO WE WOULD EXPECT THAT THE DESIGN IS GOING TO BE COMPLETE. BY MID FEBRUARY , MASTER WILL BEGIN STARTING THEIR THEIR INTERNAL BIDDING PROCESS IN MARCH. AND WE ANTICIPATE THE CONSTRUCTION WILL ACTUALLY BEGIN SOMETIME IN JUNE. AS WITH ALL OF OUR CMR PROJECTS ONCE THE FINAL DESIGN IS COMPLETE, WE WILL AGAIN BE BACK IN FRONT OF COUNSEL FOR THE PRESENTATION AND APPROVAL OF THE GMP, THE GUARANTEED MAXIMUM PRICE ONCE THAT HAS BEEN FULLY DEVELOPED, SO UM. AND AT THE SAME TIME, THE CITY HAS THE RIGHT TO TERMINATE THIS AGREEMENT AT OUR CONVENIENCE WITHOUT CAUSE AT ANY POINT. PRIOR TO THE EXECUTION OF THE GMP AMENDMENT. SHOULD WE CHOOSE TO DO SO? SO I'M HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS THAT YOU MIGHT HAVE. SO CONSTRUCTION BEGINS IN JUNE IS THAT FOR ROSE RUN, PHASE TWO AND TAYLOR FARM PHASE TWO. NO SO RIGHT NOW WE'RE ANTICIPATING THAT TAYLOR FARM PHASE TWO WOULD START IN JUNE. UM AND WE ARE ESTIMATING THAT ROSE AROUND TWO IS LIKELY TO START SOMETIME IN THE AUGUST TIME FRAME. AUGUST CORRECT. AND ONE WOULD THE ONES THEY ANTICIPATED COMPLETION OF BOTH THOSE PROJECTS. 2024 SO TAYLOR FARM BASED TWO WILL BE COMPLETE NEXT YEAR. IN 2023, THE END OF THE YEAR, IT WILL BE SUBSTANTIALLY COMPLETE PHASE TWO WILL BE PHASE TO THE FARMHOUSE AND THE EVENT AREA. PHASE TWO. 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] YES, COMMERCIAL DEVELOPMENT ALONG DUBLIN GRANVILLE ROAD HAPPEN SIMULTANEOUSLY WITH THE PARK. DEVELOPMENT. NO. IT COULD . WE HAVEN'T. WE HAVEN'T DETERMINED THAT WITH THE DEVELOPER OR WITH THE PROPERTY OWNER YET. THAT'S SOMETHING THAT WE'LL HAVE TO CONTINUE TO DISCUSS WITH THEM. ALL RIGHT, SO THAT'S A SIDE PROJECT THAT MAY NOT GO AT THE SAME TIME, CORRECT. THE ROAD WILL BE THE ROAD ITSELF. PART OF ROSE RUN FACE TO DUBLIN GRAND OVER CORRECT. AND I THINK THAT THAT PROJECT COULD COULD BE MADE UP OF MORE THAN ONE GMP. JUST BASED ON HOW WE PHASE THE PROJECT THAT YOU COULD VERY WELL BE THAT THE PARKING STRUCTURE IS ONE GMP RELATED TO ROSE AROUND, TOO. COULD HAVE A SUBSEQUENT GMP THAT MIGHT BE THE ROADWAY IMPROVEMENTS. JUST DEPENDING ON SCHEDULE AND TIMING AND HOW THOSE HOUSES BREAK OUT INDIVIDUALLY. SO SORRY. A LOT OF QUESTIONS ON THIS ONE DOES THAT INCLUDE REDESIGN OF THE INTERSECTION MEAN GOVERNMENT GRANVILLE ROAD OR WE'RE GOING TO KEEP THAT INTERSECTION PRETTY MUCH LIKE IT IS. THAT WILL REMAIN OKAY. AND WHAT ABOUT THE BRIDGE RIGHT HERE? YEAH THAT WOULD BE A FUTURE PROJECT. OKAY THIS BRIDGE AND THE BRIDGE ON CARLSBERG TO ALBANY ROAD. BOTH WOULD NEED SOME TYPE OF UPDATING. WHAT I'D LIKE TO DO IS BE ABLE TO HAVE THE MATCH EACH OTHER. THAT WOULD BE AN AGAIN ANOTHER PHASE OF FUTURE PROJECT. YEAH WE ARE INCLUDING WITH THIS PROJECT, JUST SOME TREATMENT OF THOSE BRIDGES TO JUST CLEAN THEM UP AND MAKE THEM MORE AESTHETIC. 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] LANDLINE. THERE'S 911 PIECE, BUT SO MANY PEOPLE ARE MOVING TO CELLS THAT THERE'S THOSE FEES AREN'T BEING REPLACED. SO THERE'S A LOT OF DISCUSSION ABOUT THE FINANCE IN REGARDS TO LOCATE PEOPLE ON 91. OKAY, THAT'S ALL I HAD. UM, I JUST. TWO THINGS I WOULD LIKE TO REITERATE ON THE BARN. LOVE TO SEE A NUMBER. I KNOW YOU'RE TALKING TO SOME FOLKS ABOUT WHAT IT COULD POTENTIALLY COST TO GET THAT TO THE VISION THAT WE KIND OF HAVE AND SEE THAT NUMBER NOW BEFORE WE START SPENDING MONEY TO REINFORCE IT, AND A YEAR FROM NOW WE GO AND DEMO TOMORROW SHIP ANYWAY, SO PERSONALLY BEFORE WE GO THAT ROUTE WITH MAKING IT SAFE TO SEE IF WE'RE GOING TO KEEP IT. AT ALL. UM SO I DON'T KNOW HOW LONG IT WOULD TAKE TO GET SOME SORT OF BUDGETARY IDEA . I KNOW THE ROUGH COST TO JUST STABILIZE IT IS BETWEEN 20 AND 30,000. JUST FOR A TEMPORARY, UM FOUNDATION. UM. JUST KIND OF BACK SUPPORT. SO YEAH, BUT AS FAR AS THE TOTAL COST OF THE RESTORATION, I'M NOT SURE I'M NOT SURE THAT WE NECESSARILY, UN APPROXIMATE NUMBER. BUT I THINK THAT ALSO, YOU KNOW, NEEDING TO UNDERSTAND. YOU KNOW WHAT WILL WHAT WILL THE USE OF THE BUILDING THE THAT'S GOING TO INFORM A LOT OF YOU KNOW, ARE WE GOING TO HAVE TO REDO A LOT OF THE STRUCTURE AND THINGS LIKE THAT THINGS OF THAT NATURE AS WELL? SO I THINK WE CAN COME UP WITH SOMETHING. YEAH I MEAN, I'M SAYING BE BUDGETARY IN JUST IDEA, BUT I'M NOT SURE WHAT FENCE WE'RE PUTTING UP THERE. BUT AS SOON AS WE PUT A PARKING LOT THERE AND HAVE ACCESS TO THAT SPACE UNLESS IT'S A BARBED WIRE FENCE. KIDS ARE TO FIGURE OUT HOW TO GET INTO IT. AND, AH AND CLEARLY ARE NOW ANYWAY. UM CENTRAL SO THAT'S MY COMMENT AND THEN SEVEN BACK TO PHASING OF TAYLOR FARM AND I CAN'T REMEMBER. LEISURE PATH CONNECTIONS TO GET TO THE PARK IS THAT PART OF PHASE ONE? SO TO GET TO PHASE ONE. YES THAT SO PEDESTRIAN COMING DOWN DUBLIN, GRANVILLE, OR I JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE ONCE WE OPEN IT. WE'RE NOT FORCING PEOPLE TO JUMP OVER A CREEK OR GO DOWN DUBLIN GRANVILLE ROAD AND GET ACCESS TO THE PARK AND I WOULD LIKE THAT LEISURE PATH ACCESS TO BE DONE PRIOR TO US ACTUALLY OPENING PART. YEAH UNDERSTOOD. SO ACTUALLY, THAT WILL BE ACHIEVED BY BY TWO PROJECTS, ACTUALLY, SO THAT THE INITIAL PHASE OF TAYLOR FARM OBVIOUSLY WILL PUT IN PLACE ALL OF THE PATH AND THAT PERIMETER PATH NETWORK. BUT THE INTERSECTION OF DUBLIN GRANVILLE ROAD IN HARLEM ROAD IS GOING TO INCLUDE THE CONSTRUCTION OF TWO PEDESTRIAN BRIDGES THAT ARE GOING TO BE CROSSING THE SUGAR RUN, SO THE ONE AT THE NORTHWEST CORNER IS THE ONE THAT WILL MAKE THAT CROSSING OF SUGAR RUN AND PROVIDE THAT DIRECT CONNECTION THAT DIRECT PEDESTRIAN CONNECTION INTO TAYLOR. FARM IMPROVEMENTS ANTICIPATE THAT WILL BE DONE. PRIOR TO CORRECT PRIOR TO IT BEING OPEN AT THAT POINT IN TIME TO THERE'S ALSO SECTIONS OF LEISURE TRAIL THAT ARE TO BE INSTALLED ON DUBLIN GRANVILLE ROAD AS PART OF THAT TRAFFIC SIGNAL IMPROVEMENT PROJECT. AND UPON COMPLETION OF THOSE, YOU'LL HAVE A CONTINUOUS PEDESTRIAN CONNECTION ALL THE WAY TO FROM TAYLOR FARM. PARK ALL THE WAY TO OUR VILLAGE CENTER. FANTASTIC. THANK YOU. YEAH, WE HAVEN'T SEEN ANY STUDIES OR ANY FINAL PLANS FOR THE NEW INTERSECTION THERE IN HARLEM AND DOUBLE GRANVILLE, HAVE WE? BUT THAT'S GOING TO LOOK LIKE TRAILS AND THE STREETLIGHTS WE'VE SEEN. WE HAD THAT I CAN GET. YOU CAN GET YOU AN EXHIBIT. OF WHAT? THAT WHAT THAT LOOKS LIKE. YEAH, IT'S NOT A SUBSTANTIAL CHANGE FROM FROM WHAT'S OUT THERE NOW WE ARE ABLE TO DO ARE WIDENING WITHIN. GENERALLY WITHIN THE LIMIT OF THE EXISTING ROADWAY. SO I THINK WE ARE. PEOPLE TO BE PRETTY CREATIVE TO MAKE THAT WORK WITHOUT HAVING TO DO A COMPLETE RECONSTRUCTION OF THE BRIDGE AND OTHER THINGS. PEDESTRIAN SAFETY . WE'RE GONNA BE DOING A LOT OF PEOPLE THROUGH THERE TO GET TO THE PARK. YEAH, I'LL FOLLOW UP AND I'LL GET YOU AN EXHIBIT JUST TO SHOW YOU THAT. THANK YOU. IT'S JUST ALSO TO IT. IT INCLUDES CROSSINGS ON BOTH THE NORTH SIDE OF DEMOGRAPHIC, VILLE ROAD AND SOUTH SIDE OF DUBLIN. 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] THERE WILL BE A PART OF THAT PROJECT, YOU KNOW, LIKE THE LITTLE PEDESTRIAN CORRECT PEOPLE ON THE DON'T GO. YEP. GOOD. LIKE THAT SOUTH SIDE CONNECTOR THAT YOU WERE TALKING ABOUT THAT RUNS DOWN 1 61. THAT'S GONNA RIGHT AROUND GREENSWARD. THAT'S GONNA KIND OF HEAD NORTH AND CONNECT TO THE PATH THAT'S INSIDE A TAILOR FARM. BUT IT HAD A CONNECTOR THERE AT ONE POINT I'M SORRY. SORRY ABOUT THE PATH ON THE SOUTH SIDE OF THE ROAD. NORTH SIDE. THE NORTH SIDE. 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? YES YES, COMES TO THAT RESOLUTION. 25 2022 ANYONE CARE TO MAKE YOU STANDING COMMITTEE [13. REPORTS OF REPRESENTATIVES] REPORT REPORTS OF REPRESENTATIVES JOINING UPDATE FROM RBC? YES SO THE LAST MEETING, WHICH WAS LAST THURSDAY , WE HAD A NUMBER OF ITEMS THAT WERE DISCUSSED AND APPROVED THE FIRST ITEM. MARCY IS ADVOCATING. FOR LOCAL SUPPORT OF A DISTRACTED PIECE OF DISTRACTED DRIVING LEGISLATION, WHICH IS IDENTIFIED AS HOUSE BILL 2 83. IT'S IN THE SENATE JUDICIARY COMMITTEE AT THIS TIME. UH SO IT'S JUST I DON'T KNOW IF THERE'S ANY INTEREST IN THAT. 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 [01:25:02] BE COMING, ALSO A REMINDER THAT MORRISSEY HAS NEGOTIATED $1000 SCHOLARSHIPS FOR ANY MORE MEMBER ENTITY THAT HAS AN EMPLOYEE WHO WOULD LIKE TO, UH, SEEK A DEGREE OR AN ADVANCED DEGREE. AH THE CITY OF LONDON JOINED MORE PC AND I THINK THAT TAKES THE MEMBERSHIP UP TO 82, WHICH IS A RECORD HIGH. WE APPROVED THE 2023 BUDGET, WHICH IS $23.23 MILLION. UNDER I T RELATED ITEMS THEY'RE WORKING AT A LOCAL LOCAL GOVERNMENT RESOURCES. UH, LIBRARY, SO THAT'S SOMETHING THAT WE COULD EXPECT TO SEE IN 2023. AND ALSO THE REGIONAL DATA AGENDA UPDATE SHOULD BEGIN ON JANUARY IN JANUARY OF 23, THEY EXPECT TO HAVE IT COMPLETED SOMETIME IN THE MIDDLE OF THE YEAR. AND THEN, UM. FINALLY IN THE FEDERAL RAISED GRANTS. UH APPLICATIONS ARE DUE FEBRUARY OF 28. MORRISSEY WILL BE WORKING WITH LOCAL GOVERNMENTS RAISED GRANT IS THE REBUILDING AMERICA'S INFRASTRUCTURE WAS SUSTAINABILITY AND EQUITY. UH THE ANY PROJECT THAT WOULD BE CONSIDERED FOR FUNDING MUST BE AND THE METROPOLITAN TRANSPORTATION PLANS, SO WE'LL BE LOOKING AT THAT PLAN TO MAKE SURE THAT ALL OF OUR ROAD PROJECTS ARE LISTED THERE. AH CURRENTLY WORKING ON A LIST OF OBJECTIVES THAT WILL HAVE TO BE MET BY THE APPLICANTS. THEY BELIEVE THERE'LL BE A APPROXIMATELY 2 TO 4 OBJECTIVES FOR EACH OF THE MORE BUSY GOALS. RELATED TO THE TRANSPORTATION PLAN. AND THEN FINALLY, DOCTOR. BILL LAFAYETTE IS GOING TO BE DOING HIS ANNUAL REGIONAL FORECAST AT THE METROPOLITAN CLUB ON JANUARY 4TH AT NOON. I THINK IT IS GOING TO BE, UH BROADCAST VIA THE YOUTUBE, JIM SO THAT'S ALWAYS INFORMATIVE PRESENTATION. UM ALRIGHT. ANY UPDATE FROM THE JOINT PARKS NO MEETING. NORMALLY PLAN LOCAL SCHOOLS MEETING. AND THE TOWNSHIP. THEY DID MEET THE SAME TIME AS OUR COUNCIL MEETING LAST WEEK. THEY FINISHED BEFORE US SO I COULDN'T ATTEND. I DID ASK IF THERE WAS ANYTHING OF IMPORTANCE [14. REPORTS OF CITY OFFICIALS] TO REPORT AND THERE WASN'T ANYTHING, ALL RIGHT. REPORTS OF CITY OFFICIALS AGAINST LIKE THANK MATT FARES FOR SPENDING SOME QUALITY TIME WITH US OVER THE LAST COUPLE OF MEETINGS. GOOD TO SEE YOU FRIENDLY FACE. UM SORRY. YOU'VE TAKEN YOU AWAY FROM YOUR FAMILY FOR SO LONG, BUT CERTAINLY APPRECIATE YOUR TEAM'S EFFORTS OVER THE LAST COUPLE OF MEETINGS, UM CLERK OF COUNCIL AND THE UPDATE. JUST WANT TO REMIND YOU ALL THAT WE ARE COMING UP IN OUR ORGANIZATIONAL MEETING ON JANUARY 3RD. I BELIEVE IT IS AND TO WATCH YOUR EMAILS. I'LL BE SENDING OUT THE COUNCIL RULES FOR YOUR REVIEW. IN CASE THOSE NEED ANY REFRESHING AS WELL AS THE APPOINTMENTS AND LIAISONS WHICH WILL BE REVIEWING AND SHUFFLING IS NEEDED. SO JUST WATCH YOUR EMAILS FOR THOSE RELATED ITEMS. ALRIGHT UPDATE FROM THE FINANCE DIRECTOR. BUT. OH STEPH WANTS ME TO REMIND YOU ABOUT THAT SPECIAL MEETING ON THE 27TH SPECIAL MEETING ON THE 27. I WILL NOT BE HERE. CORRECT BUT FIVE SO AND THERE WILL BE COFFEE COFFEE AT 8 30. SURE SIGN ABOUT ADDING KIDS ARE GONNA BE HERE. A MEMBER OF COUNCIL YES, THEY CAN COME UP AND PLAY WITH TOYS IN MY OFFICE IF THEY WANT DON'T THINK I CAN MAKE IT ALRIGHT FOR FOUR MINUTES MINUTES. DO YEAH, PEOPLE HAVE THE RECORD FOREVER MEDIA. WE CAN LET YOU DO THIS YAHOO! MINUTES LONG ALRIGHT, ALRIGHT. ROLL CALL PLEDGE OF REGIONS. ALRIGHT ANY UPDATE FROM THE FINANCE DIRECTOR? YES I PASSED OUT THE NOVEMBER MONTHLY REPORT FOR YOUR REVIEW. JUST A FEW HIGHLIGHTS OUR INCOME TAXES APPROXIMATELY WHAT. IN LINE WITH WHAT WE RECEIVED LAST YEAR AS IT HAS BEEN THE ENTIRE YEAR. 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] NOT QUITE AS MUCH AS WE ANTICIPATED. SO WHICH IS A GOOD THING. IF YOU WERE TO LOOK DOWN AND THE OPERATING EXPENSES WHERE IT BREAKS DOWN, UM, PERSONAL SERVICES AND OPERATING AND CONTRACTUAL SERVICES ABOUT TWO THIRDS OF THE WAY DOWN ON THE PAGE, AS YOU CAN SEE THE SIGNIFICANT INCREASE FROM LAST YEAR, UM, STAFFING, PROFESSIONAL SERVICES, CLASS OF MATERIALS AND SUPPLIES. OPERATIONS HAVE DEFINITELY INCREASED THIS YEAR. WITH GOOD CAUSE. UM, THE NEXT PAGE IS JUST OUR INVESTMENTS AND THE ACTIVITY THAT WE HAVE GOING ON WITH THEIR WE ARE IN TOTAL FUNDS ARE AT OVER $200 MILLION, WHICH INCLUDES THE SIGNIFICANT GRANT FUNDS AS WELL. THAT'S THE THIRD PAGE AND I PUT IT IN A LITTLE BIT OF A DIFFERENT ORDER THIS TIME BECAUSE JUST PAGE ORIENTATION FOR YOU TO BE ABLE TO LOOK AT IT EASIER. UM THE THIRD PAGE IS A SNAPSHOT OF ALL OF OUR CUSTODY ACCOUNTS WITH THE U. S BANK. UM WITH THE THREE DIFFERENT PORTS FOLIOS SOMETHING THAT I WANTED TO POINT OUT AS OUR MONEY MARKET FUND IS THAT 3.71% RATE WHICH IS. UNHEARD OF . UM, IF YOU WERE TO I ALSO DID A LITTLE BIT OF RESEARCH. THE TWO YEAR TREASURY CURRENTLY TODAY IS AT 4.31% THIS TIME LAST YEAR, IT WAS THAT 0.68% AND TOMORROW THERE'S ANOTHER PLANNED RATE HIKE. UM ABOUT A HALF PERCENTAGE. FROM WHAT THE RUMBLINGS ARE SO. THEY'RE UH THEY'RE INCREASING THAT FOR US, WHICH IS DOING WELL FOR OUR INTEREST REVENUE, BUT WE'LL SEE WHERE THAT TAKES US. THE LAST PAGES ARE OFF FUNDS. UM. I WANTED TO POINT OUT TO YOU, THE FLOOR AMENDMENT THAT WE INCLUDED TODAY IN THE FINAL APPROPRIATION IF YOU LOOK ABOUT, UH THREE QUARTERS OF THE WAY DOWN THE PAGE FUND 403 IS THAT BOND IMPROVEMENT THAT FOR AMENDMENT IS GOING TO HELP CLEAR OUT THAT FUND, UM IN ORDER TO PUT IT BACK TO THE APPROPRIATE FUNDS THAT IT NEEDS TO BE IN AND THEN THE COLUMN. ALL THE WAY TO THE RIGHT THAT CARRY OVER IS THE AMOUNT OF CASH THAT WE HAVE CASH AND INVESTMENTS THAT WE HAVE THAT HAS NO OBLIGATION AT THIS POINT AS FAR AS ANY CONTRACTS IN PLACE . HOWEVER, THERE'S PLANS FOR IT, OBVIOUSLY, UM, IF YOU LOOK AT THE TOTAL UNENCUMBERED, IT'S ABOUT 120 MILLION. ABOUT 20 MILLION OF THAT IS REMAINING GRANT FUNDS THAT WE ARE HAVE YET TO EXPAND THAT ARE HOUSED IN THE 4 22 FUND, WHICH BRINGS OUR OFF FUNDS DOWN TO ABOUT $100 MILLION , WHICH IS SOMETHING THAT WE HAVE, FOR THE MOST PART AVERAGED OVER THE LAST COUPLE OF YEARS. BUT I WILL SAY WHEN I FIRST STARTED, I THINK ARE OFTEN BALANCE MAY HAVE BEEN 70 ISH MILLION DOLLARS. SO UM, WE'RE CERTAINLY DOING GOOD THINGS HERE. QUESTION. THE FINANCE DIRECTOR SON. ANY QUESTIONS OF THE FINANCE WORKER. CITY MANAGER. UM IF COUNSEL WOULD BE BULLYING. I'D LIKE TO GET SOME DIRECTION. PICKLEBALL WE HAVE TWO OPTIONS FOR COURTS HAVE ONE WOULD BE AT THIS LOCATION BY THE MIRACLE FIELD AND THE OTHER WOULD BE UP AT, UH THE JOINT PARK DISTRICT PARK OVER BY LUCY LUCY BASKETBALL COURTS. AH! BASED ON MY BARKER'S WORK WITH PARIS. WE BELIEVE THAT THERE'S ABOUT A $400,000 MAYBE $500,000 DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE TWO OPTIONS. WITH THE JOINT PARK DISTRICT SITE BEING THE CHEAPER OF THE TWO EACH ONE HAS ITS PROS AND CONS. UM WHICH I SHARED WITH YOU VIA EMAIL. SO IF YOU. YOU ARE COMFORTABLE MAKING A DECISION ON THAT TONIGHT AND I CAN HAVE OUR TEAM MOVE FORWARD AND START WORKING TOWARDS THE FINALIZATION OF PLANS AND CONSTRUCTION AS SOON AS THE WEATHER BREAK ACTUALLY WOULD LIKE TO TRY TO GET SOME OF THE UNDERGROUND CONSTRUCTION DONE YET DURING THE WINTER MONTHS, SO THAT WE'RE READY TO PAVE IN THE SPRING. AH! BUT IF YOU NEED ANY OF THIS INFORMATION, I'M HAPPY TO PROVIDE THAT AS WELL. I SUPPORT THE DEVIL HUNTER LOCATION. YOU CAN GET MORE FOR LESS. I AGREE. I THINK I THINK EVERYTHING ABOUT THE PROJECT [01:35:03] THEIR WORKS AND I THINK THAT'S THE WAY TO MOVE FORWARD. I WOULD AGREE WITH THAT, FOR SIMILAR REASONS. COST VERSUS INCREASED NUMBER, AND I THINK PROXIMITY TO WHAT'S GOING TO BE GOING ON THE FIELD HOUSE IS AN ADDED ADVANTAGE. FUTURE. YEAH JUST ONE THING TO CONSIDER. AND I'M FINE . ALSO WITH BEVEL HEIMER. I MEAN , IT MAKES SENSE IF WE CAN. IF WE CAN DO IT, THE ONLY THING THAT WE HEAD. IT REALLY FACTORED IN A LITTLE BIT WITH DOUBLE HEIMER. I THINK AFTER REVIEWING KIND OF COMPARISON IS WE PROBABLY NEED A LITTLE BIT MORE SHADE STRUCTURE. OUT OF BEVEL HEIMER ONLY BECAUSE WE HAD SOME EXISTING TREES. WE HAD SOME THINGS THAT WE WERE GOING TO USE . UM OVER JUST CAUGHT THE SPEAKER ONE AND SO IF COUNSEL IS OKAY, I'D LIKE TO ADD JUST A LITTLE BIT MORE TO THAT BUDGET WILL STILL SAVE AT LEAST $300,000 MOVING IT THERE, BUT I'D LIKE JUST A LITTLE BIT EXTRA THERE JUST TO PUT SOME DIFFERENT SHADES STRUCTURES UP IF COUNCILS OKAY WITH THAT I WOULD AGREE WITH THAT, ESPECIALLY WITH THE POND THERE. IF WE CAN USE SHADE FOR THEM ALSO TO SIT AND ACTUALLY, IT WILL BE CLOSER TO THE POND, ACCORDING TO A JOE SAID, WE ACTUALLY HAVE TO SHIFT IT DOWN A LITTLE BIT DUE TO THE DO THE AREA AND SO IT WILL ACTUALLY BE CLOSER TO THE ACTUALLY MIGHT MIGHT WORK AMENITY TO THOSE PORTS. IT'S WITH THE SHADING WOULD PROVIDE AN OPPORTUNITY ALSO FOR BLOCKING WITH THE WIND. I'M A LITTLE CONCERNED ABOUT I DON'T KNOW ABOUT PICKLEBALL PLAY AND HELP COULD BE A FACTOR, BUT I AM A LITTLE CONCERNED ABOUT THE FIELDS OVER A BUBBA HEIMER AND I KNOW YOU AND I TALKED ABOUT SOME TREE SHRUBBERY TO STOP THAT. IS THERE ROOM IN THE BUDGET FOR THAT? IT'S A GREAT GREAT QUESTION. ANDREA THAT'S ALSO CONCERNED THAT I HAD. I THINK WE WERE TALKING ABOUT SOME DESIGN. 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 [01:40:07] APPROPRIATE. 17. I THINK WE CAN GET THIS THING DONE. JOE DO YOU NEED A MOTION OR WHAT WOULD YOU LIKE FROM US? MOST OF THE GOOD OKAY? I'LL MAKE THE MOTION. SOUNDS FINE. I MOVE THAT WE APPROPRIATE 1.7 MILLION FOR THE BUILDING OF THE PICKLE BALL. UM FACILITIES AS DISCUSSED BY COUNSEL THIS EVENING. SECOND.

AND ALSO AS WE DESIGN THIS IF YOU HAVE SOME THOUGHTS LIKE WHAT YOU JUST SAID ABOUT MAYBE MOVING SOME THINGS CLOSER TO THE POND SERENITY. SOMETHING LIKE THAT. MAYBE IF WE DO THE RESTROOMS WHERE THAT COULD BE LOCATED, PLEASE JUST LET ME KNOW FOUNTAIN IN THAT PONTOON SOMEWHERE THAT RUNS CAN'T EVEN GET YEAH. I JUST DON'T WANT TO DESIGN IT. IN A VACUUM WHERE IT'S JUST PICKLEBALL COURTS. I THINK WITH ALL THE OTHER AMENITIES. WE HAVE DOUBLE HAMMER. WE CAN. YEAH, PUT IT THOUGHTFUL, DESIGNING WORK. A LOT OF PLACES COULD BE UTILIZED. LOOK AT YOUR SOME BENCHES AROUND THAT POND, TOO, BY THE WAY, BECAUSE THERE ARE NO ADVENTURES, AND THAT'S A NICE POND OF TREES. I THINK YOU'RE RIGHT. OKAY THANK THANK YOU. QUARREL. GABLE. PEOPLE WERE ASKING FOR SOME FLAMINGOS FOR THE POND. BUT I'M NOT SURE IT'S GOING TO BE MAYBE THE PLASTIC PLANET MONEY. CONGRATULATIONS RIGHT.

BUT INCREASING OUR STAFFING, PROVIDING WONDERFUL CUSTOMER SERVICE TO OUR COMMUNITY. AND, UH, WORKING THROUGH A LOT OF SORT OF INTERESTING AND NOVEL. ISSUES OVER THE PAST YEAR THAT I DON'T THINK OUR IN THE CITY MANAGER PLAYBOOK.
