[8. CORRESPONDENCE/COMMUNICATIONS]
CORRESPONDENCE OR COMMUNICATION SINCE OUR LAST MEETING THAT THEY WOULD LIKE TO PROVIDE AN UPDATE ON UM, NOT AN UPDATE, BUT I THINK WE ALL RECEIVED THAT EMAIL FROM SCOTT. STEPHEN LAWLER. UM AND I JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE SOMEBODY FROM STAFF I KNOW WE'VE DISCUSSED THAT, UH THROUGH THE HOLE. PROCESS WITH THE HAMLET EVERYTHING UP THERE, BUT I JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE SOMEBODY'S GONNA APPLY. EXCUSE ME. MIKE AND I SPOKE LAST WEEK, AND HE'S WORKING ON THAT. SO WE'LL HAVE A RESPONSE. PROBABLY THIS WEEK. OKAY. PERFECT THANK YOU. WE ALSO RECEIVED AN EMAIL FROM TIMOTHY SCULPT IN REGARDING THE INTERSECTION DOUBLE HEIMER AND CENTRAL COLLEGE. AND THE DANGEROUS OF THAT INTERSECTION. I GUESS, HE NOTES. SEVERAL PEOPLE THAT HAVE BEEN CLIPPED CROSSING THE INTERSECTION. THERE'S ANY MORE THAT WE CAN DO TO CREATE A SAFER INTERSECTION THERE, WHETHER I THINK HE RAISED TWO ISSUES, ONE WAS THE LIGHTED OR OUTLINING STOP SIGN. SO WE'RE TAKING A LOOK AT THAT. UH CHIEF ALSO PROVIDED INFORMATION ABOUT THE NUMBER OF TRAFFIC ACCIDENTS THERE AND WE DID. WE DID CHECK THE LIGHTING, AND MIKE IS WORKING WITH THE CITY ENGINEER TO DETERMINE WHETHER OR NOT THE BRIGHTON SERVICE SUFFICIENCY OF THE LATEST IS APPROPRIATE. THERE IS A AND E P COBRA HEADLIGHT AT THAT INTERSECTION, SO IT'S PROBABLY PROPERLY LIT ACCORDING TO THE LIGHTING STANDARDS, BUT WE ARE LOOKING AT THE POSSIBILITY OF ADDING, UH, STOP SCIENCE WITH WITH THE RED LIGHTS AROUND THE PERIMETER. I'LL BE NICE CHIEF. IS IT CONCERNS ABOUT THE INTERSECTION? YEAH WELL, ACTUALLY, THE LITTLE BIT SURPRISED BECAUSE I THINK THE MAYOR SUGGESTED PUTTING ANOTHER TOPIC AND, UH, SO UH, IT WAS ALREADY ON THE TOP EIGHT. THEY JUST PUT OUT THE TOP PAID FOR THE MONTH, AND IT WAS ALREADY ON IT. UM THE SERGEANT HAD NOTICED THAT WE HAD A COUPLE ACCIDENTS THAT WERE CLOSE TOGETHER AND SEEMED A LITTLE BIT. UM IN RECENT TIMES, THERE'S BEEN A COUPLE MORE ACCIDENTS THAN THAN WHAT WE HAD SEEN NORMALLY. SO IRONICALLY, WHEN I WAS ON THE PHONE AND JOE TALKING ABOUT THIS ISSUE THERE WAS ANOTHER ACCIDENT AT THAT INTERSECTION. SOME OF THE ACCIDENTS THE ONE THAT HAPPENED WHEN I WAS ON THE PHONE[00:15:05]
WITH JOE, IT WAS A NON ENGLISH SPEAKING PERSON THAT THAT REALLY DIDN'T UNDERSTAND TRAFFIC LAWS, AND I THINK THAT WAS A CONTRIBUTING FACTOR TO THE MOST RECENT ACCIDENT THAT WE HAD. AND THEN, UM, OF THE THREE THAT HAPPENED MOST RECENTLY ONE INVOLVED IN THE UAE DRIVER SO UM , YOU KNOW, I THINK ANY STEPS WE CAN TAKE TO IMPROVE THE AWARENESS ARE GREAT, BUT WE'RE WE ARE ACTIVELY WORKING THAT INTERSECTION AND ISSUING MOSTLY CITATIONS AND WARNINGS AT THIS TIME, PROBABLY JUST THE INCREASE OF TRAFFIC COMING THROUGH THERE RECENTLY. NO LESS YEAR OR SO.IT'S PROBABLY CONTRIBUTED TO IT. YEAH. BUT I MEAN, IT'S A FOUR WAY STOP NOW. IT USED TO BE A TWO WAY STOP. YEAH, IT'S A FOUR WAY STOP, AND I THINK THE BIGGER ISSUE IS EAST AND WEST CENTRAL COLLEGE MORE THAN NORTH AND SOUTH LONDON 605. I MEAN, THERE'S CLEAR SIGHTLINE OBSTRUCTIONS TO THE STOP SIGN. IF YOU'RE LOOKING IF YOU'RE ON BE BEHIND MURMUR, AND YOU'RE LOOKING TO THE EAST, THERE IS A RISE SO THAT IF SOMEBODY IS TRAVELING AT A DECENT SPEED UM, YOUR LINE OF SIGHT, IT SEEMS SUFFICIENT. IT DOESN'T LOOK LIKE IT'S A AN ISSUE. UM BUT THERE IS A LITTLE BIT ARISE. WHERE THAT, UM YOU DON'T HAVE AS MUCH VIEWED AS YOU WOULD TO THE WEST. I DON'T THINK THAT LOOKING AT THE ACCIDENT. I DON'T THINK THE LINE OF SIGHT SPIN THE CAUSE OF THE ACCIDENT. I THINK IT'S PEOPLE JUST NOT YIELDING TO THE STOP SITES. AND THE WEB LIKE US STOP SIGN AHEAD SIGN WHERE THEY WERE. THEY, UM UH, I I'LL TELL YOU ON THE ROAD. I'M SORRY CHECK. I THOUGHT THERE WAS BUT I CAN'T SAY FOR SURE. I NEED TO CHECK ALL COME FOR DIRECTIONS TO MAKE SURE WE HAVE THOSE. I MEAN, YOU KNOW, REGRETTABLY, YOU KNOW, PEOPLE COMING TO A FULL STOP.
LET ALONE SLOWING DOWN? YEAH SEEMS TO BE, YOU KNOW, AND THAT ISSUE THROUGHOUT CENTRAL OHIO.
YEAH UH, YOU KNOW AGAIN, PEOPLE NEED TO OBEY THE TRAVEL. YEAH LOOKING AT THE ACCIDENT. I DON'T THINK IT'S UM YOU KNOW, IT'S NOT LIKE MANY DECKS. IT SOUNDS LIKE IT'S 22 PEOPLE THAT ARE FAIRLY LOCAL. THAT FORGOT THAT. IT USED TO BE, YOU KNOW, THROUGH TRAFFIC FOR SOME PRECAUTION HAVE FORGOTTEN THAT HAS CHANGED THE FOUR WAY STOP. I DON'T THINK THAT'S THE CASE. I THINK IT'S MORE THAT PEOPLE ROLL IN THE STOP SIGN OR NOT YIELDING AT ALL. IS THERE ANYTHING TO RECRUIT US FROM PUTTING ELIMINATED? STOP SIGN THERE. SO AT LEAST I MEAN, I WOULD FOCUS ON THE EAST WEST SIDES AND THEN BUT IF WE CAN DO ALL FOUR OF THEM GREAT TO YAHOO, AS FAR AS THE TRAFFIC WORKING IT, UM I THINK I FORWARD THE STATS WITH JOE OF THE AMOUNT OF CITATIONS AND WARNINGS GIVEN SO THEY EVEN PRIOR TO BE ON THE TOP EIGHT OFFICERS HAVE WORKED OUT REGULARLY. UM THE ONE THING THAT SEVERAL OFFICERS HAVE MENTIONED IS THAT WHEN WE'RE THERE, YOU PROBABLY WON'T SEE A TON OF CITATION OF WARNINGS BECAUSE, UH , THE WAY THAT THE GEOGRAPHICALLY IT'S SET UP, THERE'S REALLY NO PLACE WHERE THE OFFICER ISN'T FRONT CENTER AND VERY VISIBLE WHEN YOU'RE SITTING THERE SO GENERALLY WHEN THEY SIT THERE. PEOPLE ARE VERY COMPLIANT. AND THEN WHEN THEY LEAVE, THEY GO BACK TO WHERE THEY HAD BEEN DOING. YOU CAN SIT UP ON THE GRASSY KNOLL OR SOMETHING. OCULAR YEAH, IT'S ALL ROUGH, RIGHT THIS TIME OF YEAR THAT WE HAVE TO KICK IN THAT ALL WHEEL DRIVE TO GET BACK OUT OF THERE. BUT SOUNDS LIKE A DRONE JOB. THAT'S RIGHT. OKAY? ALL RIGHT, UM. THAT TAKES US TO THE SECOND READING OF ORDINANCES AND
[10. INTRODUCTION AND FIRST READING OF ORDINANCES]
PUBLIC HEARING ORDINANCE, 01 HAS BEEN WITHDRAWN. INTRODUCTION. THE FIRST READING OF ORDINANCES ORDINANCE 002 2024 NO ORDERS TO MEN CHAPTERS 183.21 939.011187 0.081187 0.091187, 0.10 AND 1187.11 OF THE CITY OF NEW ALBANY ALEHOUSE QUALIFIED MORTGAGES TO REMOVE REFERENCES TO COUNCIL STANDING COMMITTEES AND UPDATE CITY STATUS AS REQUESTED BY THE CITY OF NEW ALBANY. ALRIGHT YEAH. JUST REMIND YOU THAT AT YOUR LAST COUNCIL MEETING YOU VOTED TO REMOVE THE COUNCIL STANDING COMMITTEES FROM YOUR RULES OF PROCEDURE BECAUSE SAFETY, PUBLIC UTILITY SERVICE AND PUBLIC FACILITIES, PLANNING AND ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT AND ADMINISTRATION COMMITTEES HAD NOT CONVENED AND AT LEAST OVER A DECADE AND I HEARING EVEN LONGER . UM THE ORDINANCE. THIS ORDINANCE STRIKES THE REFERENCES TO THE STANDING COMMITTEES IN CITY CODE, AND IT'S ON THE EXHIBIT A AND YOU'LL SEE THE RED LINES WHERE IT STRIKES IT OUT.THE OTHER THING IS WHILE WE WERE ALREADY IN THERE, WE UPDATED REFERENCES FROM VILLAGE AND VILLAGE ADMINISTRATOR TO CITY AND CITY MANAGER. SO THAT'S KIND OF THE SIMPLE, CLEAN UP OF CITY CODE BASED ON THE CHANGE TO THE RULES OF PROCEDURE. AND I WANT TO MAKE SURE THERE AREN'T ANY QUESTIONS ON THAT BEFORE I BRING UP YET ANOTHER COMMITTEE THAT WAS NOT PART OF THE STANDING COMMITTEES, BUT THAT TURNED UP IN A SEARCH. UM AND SO, BUT FIRST I WANT TO MAKE SURE ALL THE STRIKES THAT YOU SAW THOSE WERE ALL FINE. THAT COUNCIL OKAY , SO THERE WAS ONE OTHER
[00:20:05]
COMMITTEE IN 1 57 10, WHICH IS AN INVESTMENT ADVISORY COMMITTEE, WHICH WE DON'T HAVE TO REMOVE IT, UH, TALKING TO FINANCE DIRECTORS THOUGHTS. IT'S KIND OF WHAT COUNCIL MEMBER WILL TROUT WAS ALREADY DOING AS THE CHAIR OF THE FINANCE COMMITTEE. THE WAY THE ORDINANCE OR YEAH, THE WAY THE CODIFIED ORDINANCE IS WHERE IT'S COUNCIL OR THE DESIGNATED INVESTMENT ADVISORY COMMITTEE WILL MEET. SO WE KIND OF ALREADY HAPPENING. OKAY UM, BUT I WANT TO JUST MAKE COUNCIL AWARE OF IT RIGHT NOW. I DO NOT DO ANYTHING WITH IT IN THE ORDINANCE, BUT WE CAN ADD IT TO STRIKE IT OR WE CAN LEAVE IT AS IS MM HMM. WHAT WAS IT? WHAT WAS THE CODE SECTION AGAIN? 1 57 10.OKAY IT'S SHORTY. I CAN READ IT OUT LOUD IF YOU'RE HAVING TROUBLE SAYING THIS IS THE THIS THE COUNCIL OR THE OR A DESIGNATED INVESTMENT ADVISORY COMMITTEE WILL ENDEAVOR TO MEET ON A QUARTERLY BASIS, HOWEVER, SAID COMMITTEE SHALL MEET NO LESS THAN TWICE PER ANNUM TO REVIEW THE PORTFOLIO IN TERMS OF SECURITY TYPE. MOVE MY EYES OVER HERE. RISK AND INVESTMENT RETURN . THE INVESTMENT OFFICE AT THE INVESTMENT OFFICER SHALL BE RESPONSIBLE FOR MAINTAINING RECORDS OF ALL INVESTMENTS AND DEPOSITS. AND PREPARING REPORTS THAT SUMMARIZE, RECKON RECENT MARKET CONDITIONS, ECONOMIC CONDITIONS, ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENTS AND ANTICIPATED INVESTMENTS FOR COUNCIL AND I THINK THAT BRIEFLY CAME OUT. BUT THE LAST MEETING COUNCILWOMAN WILL TRY TO HAD ATTENDED THE MEETING. YES JUST, YOU KNOW, FEEDBACK FROM YOU AND STAFF REGARDING THIS I WAS I WAS OUT OF SUCH MEETING THIS AFTERNOON, AND IT WAS HELPFUL TO LEARN ABOUT THE CITIES. INVESTMENTS AND INSTRUCTOR, STATS AND. SEVEN ON THEN, UM YEAH, I'M HAPPY TO REPORT. UM OUR FINDINGS AH, AND ACCORDINGLY HERE LESS FREQUENT BASIS IF THAT'S HELPFUL, BUT I THINK IT'S THIS PRETTY MUCH SUMS UP EVERYTHING THAT WE DO ON THE FINANCE COMMITTEE. SO WE REALLY SHOULD GET RID OF ONE OR THE OTHER. IT SEEMS LIKE YOU COULD GET RID OF THE FINANCE COMMITTEE AND THE PROPOSED THAT'S HOW THEY GET, YOU KNOW. BRITAIN BACK IN AS THE PART OF THE SUBCOMMITTEE AND JUST HAVE THIS, MAYBE. YEAH. I MEAN, THAT COULD BE A SUPPLEMENTARY. UM WE'RE GOING TO DISCUSS COUNCIL RULES. A LITTLE LATER, I MADE A SUGGESTION OF MAKING A FINANCE LIAISON.
BASICALLY SO THERE ARE COMMITTEE MEETINGS AND YOU DON'T RUN INTO OPEN MEETINGS, ACT SITUATIONS.
UM THAT'S ANOTHER WAY AROUND IT, BUT I JUST WANT TO PUT IT IN FRONT OF COUNCIL BECAUSE WE HAVEN'T DISCUSSED IT. MY UNDERSTANDING HAS BEEN THAT THE FINANCE COMMITTEE AND THE INVESTMENT GET INVESTMENT COMMITTEE HAS BEEN ONE AND THE SAME. MAYBE JUST CALLED SOMETHING DIFFERENTLY. THAT WAS MY UNDERSTANDING SINCE I'VE BEEN HERE. SINCE DR MARSH WAS ON HIM.
DO WHO MAKES UP THE INVESTMENT ADVISORY COMMITTEE RIGHT NOW. WE MEET WITH OUR INVESTMENT ADVISORS, SO IT WOULD BE RED TREE INVESTMENTS AND THEN WE HAVE ONE COUNCIL MEMBER THAT COMES, WHICH WOULD BE THE FINANCE COMMITTEE REPRESENTATIVE , UM THEN FINANCE AND JOE, OKAY, SO FINANCE TO INVESTMENT ADVISOR AND GET RID OF FINDINGS EFFECTIVELY. I'M FINE WITH THAT.
I WAS JUST HMM. LOOKING AT THE WORDING TO SEE IF DESIGNATE OR IN INVESTMENT ADVISORY COMMITTEE IF WE'VE BEEN NEEDED THAT UP THERE IF THERE WAS A COMMITTEE, BUT THERE SOUNDS LIKE THERE IS OR POTENTIALLY COULD BE ANOTHER ONE. AT SOME POINT, SO I THINK THE WORDING IS FINE AS IS AND MAYBE COMBINING THE TWO MAKES ACT OF A LOT OF SENSE. YEAH I WOULD ALSO SAY THAT THIS PARTICULAR SECTION IS CONSIDERED OUR INVESTMENT POLICY THAT WE HAVE TO ADOPT PER THE R C. AND WE HAVE TO HAVE IN PLACE. AND SO THIS IS SOMETHING THAT ALL OF OUR, UM INVESTMENT OR INVESTMENT ADVISORS AND ANY ACCOUNT THAT WE HOLD WITH US BANK OR ANYTHING. THEY HAVE TO SIGN OFF ON THIS AS WELL. SO UM, THAT WOULD BE SOMETHING. IF WE DO CHANGE IT, I WOULD NEED TO PROVIDE THAT TO THEM TO SIGN OFF ON IT AGAIN. AND DO WE HAVE LANGUAGE SOMEWHERE THAT, SAYS COUNCIL OF DESIGNATE WHO ARE A POINT THAT DESIGNATED FOR THIS SET IN OUR LANGUAGE FOR THIS, LIKE POINTING I MEAN, I THINK THE SUGGESTION WAS THAT WE JUST AGAIN CREATE A SUBCOMMITTEE AND DESIGNATE THAT INDIVIDUAL DISSERVICE. WE DO THAT WHEN WE DO ALL OUR OKAY. PERFECT DO THAT LATER IN THIS MEETING. OKAY? AND THEN I HAVE ONE QUESTION ON THE ORDINANCE THAT WE'RE LOOKING AT. I KNOW WE TOOK OUT QUITE A FEW OF THE SUBCOMMITTEE'S WHAT THE ONE THAT YOU LEFT WAS HOTEL MOTEL BED TAX . WE DIDN'T STRIKE THAT. BUT WHERE DOES THAT THEN COME INTO PLAY AS IT RELATES TO BECAUSE IT'S NOT MENTIONED ANYWHERE IN THE RULES OF PROCEDURES? YEAH, I THINK WE STRUCK THEM ALL AND
[00:25:01]
THEN UNDER AGAIN THE COUNCIL SUBCOMMITTEES. WE WOULD CREATE A SUBCOMMITTEE SO IN THE ORDINANCE , THERE WASN'T MENTIONED OF THE HOTEL MOTEL TAX COUNCIL RULES COUNCIL COORDINATES RIGHT. THE ORDINANCE, THOUGH, IS SAYING STRIKE THESE FROM HONORED STAR GENDER I MEAN FROM HERE, RIGHT? AND THEN WE'RE GONNA HANDLE THAT. SEPARATELY. THE OTHER SO RIGHT NOW, THAT'S NOT IN THE CODE. THE HOTEL MOTEL TAX COMMITTEE LIKE YOU TOOK ALL THAT STUFF. I'M MISSING SOMETHING. SO WE TOOK ALL THOSE THINGS OUT OF COUNCIL RULES THEIR RESPONSIBILITIES IN CODE THAT WE HAD TO THEN DO AWAY WITH AS IT WAS. NO LONGER APPLICABLE. BUT AS FAR AS. THE COMMITTEE AND THE REASON FOR THAT WAS BECAUSE WE STRUCK THE STANDING COMMITTEES AND THE REASON WE STRUCK THE STANDING BECAUSE MOST OF THEM HADN'T MET NOTICE. I DIDN'T MENTION IN THE LEGISLATIVE REPORT THAT HOTEL MOTEL TAX HAS MET AND SO ITS FINANCING AWAY, SO I JUST MENTIONED THE ONES THAT REALLY HADN'T MET IN A LONG TIME. IT'S JUST SORT OF THE JUSTIFICATION FOR THE CLEARING.BUT WE WILL COME BACK TO COUNCIL RULES LATER. OKAY I GUESS THEN THAT'S WHERE I'LL MAKE MY MENTION THAT AND COUNCIL RULES THAT MAYBE THAT SHOULD BE IN ADDITION TO APPOINTMENTS OVERSEAS. YEAH WE CAN TALK ABOUT THAT. BUT THAT DOESN'T AFFECT THE COORDINATES, OKAY? ANYONE ELSE BEFORE WE MOVE OFF OF ARE YOU MAKING SUGGESTIONS ON CHANGES TO 157.10? IT DOESN'T HAVE TO CHANGE BECAUSE IT'S YOUR YEAH. I JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE COUNCIL IS AWARE OF IT, AND IT SEEMS LIKE SOMETHING OF AN ANTIQUATED SITUATION. YEAH CAN I ASK A POINT OF CLARIFICATION ABOUT 157.1 OUT? WHO IS THE INVESTMENT OFFICER? IS THAT RED TREE? IS THAT YOU? I WOULD BELIEVE IT WOULD BE ME. BU FISCAL OFFICER. OKAY, THANK YOU. I'D HAVE TO LOOK BACK TO, UH, MORE THAN LIKELY THAT LANGUAGE MAY BE REFERRED TO IN THE O R C HIGHER VARIETIES CODE, SO THAT'S LIKELY WHAT THAT'S REFERRING TO US. AND IT CAN BE SET FOR SECOND READING WON'T MAKE ANY CHANGES.
SOUNDS LIKE. ALRIGHT WE HADN'T SAID THAT FOR SECOND READING AT OUR MEETING ON FEBRUARY 6TH
[12. COUNCIL SUBCOMMITTEE REPORTS]

UM I THINK WE SUGGESTED THAT MAYBE THE FEBRUARY 6TH MEETING WILL RUN THROUGH WHAT SUBCOMMITTEES YOU WANT TO CREATE AND MAKE APPOINTMENTS. THEN WE HAVE WE CAN DO THAT LATER TONIGHT BECAUSE WE'RE GONNA REVISE. WE'RE GOING TO TALK A LITTLE ABOUT THE REVISED COUNCIL RULES.[13. REPORTS OF REPRESENTATIVES]

YES WE CLOSED 2023 ON FRIDAY AND JUST A QUICK I DON'T HAVE ANYTHING TO HAND YOU, BUT JUST A QUICK OVERALL UPDATE THE GENERAL FUND FINAL APPROPRIATION WAS 42.9 MILLION LAPSED, MEANING WE PASSED ON APPROPRIATIONS OF 5.5 MILLION AND SO THAT IS 13% OF APPROPRIATIONS THAT WE LAPSED OR DID NOT SPEND, UM, WHICH IS ADDED BACK TO THE GENERAL FUND BUDGET. FOUR. ONE UPDATE RELATED TO MY CONTINGENCY PLANS ON MY BUDGET APPROPRIATIONS WE DID END UP HAVING USED $47,000 OF THE $100,000 CONTINGENCY. UH THIS WAS DUE TO OUR BUILDERS ESCROW FUND, SO IT'S A SPECIAL REVENUE FUND. THIS IS ONLY THE SECOND YEAR THAT WE WERE REQUIRED TO ACTUALLY PUT A BUDGET TO THIS FUND BECAUSE IT WAS ORIGINALLY SOMETHING THAT WASN'T REQUIRED TO BECAUSE THE ACTIVITY IN THAT FUND IS RELATED TO PRIVATE DEVELOPMENT AND THE DIFFERENT STANDARDS THAT ARE, UM RELATED TO ISSUING PERMITS AND HOLDING ONTO MONEY IF THEY HAVE TEMPORARY OCCUPANCY, SO NOTHING REALLY THAT WE COULD HAVE CONTROLLED BUT UNFORTUNATELY WE NEEDED TO PUT A BUDGET TO IT. AND THERE WAS LEE ACTIVITY IN THAT FUND IN DECEMBER, SO STILL DIDN'T USE IT FOR THE GENERAL FUND, BUT IT WAS USED FOR A SPECIAL REVENUE FUND THAT WE DON'T REALLY HAVE MUCH CONTROL OVER. AND IT REALLY SADDENS ME TO SAY THAT. ALL RIGHT. ANY QUESTIONS ON THE UPDATE? RIGHT FROM CITY MANAGER REPORT. ATTORNEY NOTHING. DAD THIS[15. POLL FOR PUBLIC COMMENT]
EVENING PUB PUBLIC COMMENT ANYTHING FROM YOU? OH, MY GOSH. WAIT WHOA, ABE JACOB! MR MAYOR, CITY COUNCIL MEMBERS. UH YOU KNOW A LOT OF FOLKS COME BEFORE YOU TYPICALLY WITH COMPLAINTS, GRIEVANCES, THINGS THEY'D LIKE YOU TO ADDRESS AND THE LAST TIME I ACTUALLY CAME BEFORE YOU WAS AFTER THE FIRST YEAR OF COMPLETION OF THE IDEA COMMITTEE. AND IT'S POIGNANT OF WHY I BRING THAT UP. MY HUSBAND AND I COMPLETED THE FIRST BEATING OF THE NEW ALBANY SYSTEMS POLICE ACADEMY AND ONE THING THAT STOOD OUT TO ME DURING OUR DRIVE HOME. IN ADDITION TO THE INFORMATION WE LEARNED JUST FROM NIGHT, ONE WAS THE LEVEL OF DIVERSITY AND INCLUSION THAT WAS INCLUDED WITHIN THIS CLASS THIS YEAR. YOU KNOW, WE SET GOALS WITH THE IDEA COMMITTEE AND HOW ARE WE GOING TO ACHIEVE THAT? AND I THINK THERE'S CERTAIN THINGS YOU CAN DO, BUT I THINK THAT OVER THE LAST COUPLE OF YEARS OF BEING POIGNANT AND STRATEGIC AND, FRANKLY JUST OPEN AND AUTHENTIC IN COLLABORATION WITH THE WORK THAT THE CITY'S COMMUNICATIONS DEPARTMENT DOES HAS CLEARLY INVITED ENOUGH FOLKS TO APPLY FOR THIS ORGANIZATION OF THIS ACADEMY TO WANNA PARTICIPATE BECAUSE IT WAS ALL WALKS OF LIFE FROM AGES GENDER RACE AND IT WAS A COUPLE SINGLES RETIRE. IT WAS JUST A GREAT AND EFFECTIVE WAS ONLY SESSION ONE AND WE'RE ALREADY GETTING THAT MUCH MORE OUT OF IT. WE STILL HAVE SEVERAL WEEKS TO GO. SO FRANKLY, FOR WHAT IT'S WORTH, CONTINUE WHAT YOU'RE DOING WITH THE IDEA. UH ACTUALLY BE, HOWEVER, WE'RE ALREADY SEEING THE PROOFS IN THE PUDDING. SO CONGRATULATIONS TO EVERYBODY. THANK YOU. THANKS, DAVE. I APPRECIATE THE COMMENTS. I KNOW A LOT OF US HAVE BEEN THROUGH THE POLICE CITIZENS POLICE ACADEMY AND FOUND IT ALSO VERY REWARDING. BUT I APPRECIATE THOSE ADDITIONAL COMMENTS.CERTAINLY HELPFUL AND I KNOW ARE POLICE OFFICERS DO AN INCREDIBLE JOB AT THAT, UM, YOU KNOW, PUTTING A POSITIVE PORTRAYAL OF LAW ENFORCEMENT AND THEIR ENGAGEMENT WITH THE COMMUNITY, AND THAT'S JUST ANOTHER GREAT EXAMPLE. SO THANK YOU. ALRIGHT ANYONE ELSE IN THE PUBLIC? APPRECIATE THE COMMENTS. ALRIGHT PULFORD COUNCIL COMMENT AND THE COUNCIL COMMENT. COVER THE SUBCOMMITTEE'S AFTER OTHER BUSINESS, I SUPPOSE ALRIGHT.
