May 10, 2021 City Council Meeting

THIS EVENING, UH, WE HAVE MS. KAREN POWELL, WHO'S OUR DEPUTY CLERK OF COUNCIL FILLING IN FOR MR. ROGERS THIS EVENING.

PSALM NINE, SEVEN AND EIGHT SAYS THE LORD REIGNS FOREVER.

HE HAS ESTABLISHED HIS THRONE FOR JUDGMENT.

HE WILL JUDGE THE WORLD IN RIGHTEOUSNESS.

HE WILL GOVERN THE PEOPLES WITH JUSTICE.

GOD IS AUTONOMOUS AND ONLY GOD.

AND HIS WORD IS ABSOLUTE THE FOUNDATION FOR WHAT IS RIGHT AND WHAT IS WRONG.

BIBLICAL TRUTH IS THE BASIS FOR SOCIETY AND GOVERNMENT AND OUR CONSTITUTION.

EVERY NATION AND INDIVIDUAL WILL BE FORGIVEN OR CONDEMNED.

ACCORDING TO THE TRUTH.

GOD HAS REVEALED IN JESUS CHRIST AND THROUGH THE BIBLE IN PROVERBS EIGHT, 13 TO 18, IT SAYS TO FEAR, THE LORD IS TO HATE EVIL EYE WISDOM, HATE PRIDE AND ARROGANCE, EVIL BEHAVIOR, AND PERVERSE SPEECH COUNSEL AND SOUND JUDGMENT ARE MINE.

I HAVE UNDERSTANDING AND POWER BY ME.

KINGS REIGN AND RULERS MAKE LAWS THAT ARE JUST BY ME, PRINCES GOVERN AND ALL NOBLES WHO RULE ON EARTH.

I LOVE THOSE WHO LOVE ME.

AND THOSE WHO SEEK ME, FIND ME WITH ME ARE RICHES AND HONOR, AND DURING WEALTH AND PROSPERITY WHEN THE BASIS FOR SOCIETY AND GOVERNMENT IS BIBLICAL TRUTH, BECAUSE IT IS THE TRUTH.

THE RESULT IS FREEDOM WITHOUT CHAOS.

WHAT KIND OF NATION ARE WE FRANCIS SCHAFFER SAID WHEN THERE IS NO ABSOLUTE BY WHICH TO JUDGE SOCIETY, SOCIETY IS ABSOLUTE.

HE DEFINED HUMANISM AS MANKIND, HUMANISM, AS MANKIND, DEMANDING TO BEGIN AUTONOMOUSLY FROM HIMSELF AND TURNING AWAY COMPLETELY FROM ANYTHING THAT GOD MIGHT HAVE TO SAY.

A SINGLE INDIVIDUAL OR ELITE GROUP COMES UP WITH ITS OWN ARBITRARY, MORAL ABSOLUTES, GENERATING MEANING AND ETHIC WITHOUT ANY ABSOLUTE ETHIC BY WHICH TO JUDGE ITS ABSOLUTE POWER.

BUT WHICH INDIVIDUAL OR GROUP WOULD DECIDE THIS INTELLECTUALS, TECHNOCRATS POLITICAL LEADERS OR MILITARY MATES WHO WOULD BE COMPETENT, WHO WOULD BE THE COMPETENT ELITE DECIDING WHAT IS RIGHT AND WHAT IS NOT.

HISTORY IS LITTERED WITH SOCIETIES AND GOVERNMENTS THAT TAKE SUCH A MANIPULATIVE, MANIPULATIVE AND DICTATORIAL APPROACH IN 1934 SO-CALLED GERMAN.

CHRISTIANITY INSPIRED BY NAZI-ISM WAS ON THE RISE.

HITLER APPEALED TO PATRIOTIC GERMANS WHO WERE BISHOPS AND ELDERS AND PASTORS TO WORK WITH HIM TO BETTER THE LIVES OF THE GERMAN PEOPLE.

WHAT EMERGED WAS THE IDEA THAT IT WAS THE DUTY OF THE CHURCH TO ADVANCE A POLITICAL IDEOLOGY, BUT A GROUP OF CHRISTIANS IN 1934 GOT TOGETHER AND AUTHORED WHAT IS KNOWN AS THE BARMEN DECLARATION.

IT ARGUED THAT THE CHURCH AND THE GOSPEL SERVES JESUS CHRIST AS LORD OVER EVERYTHING.

AND MUST NEVER ALLOW ITSELF TO BE ENLISTED IN THE SERVICE OF ANY IDEOLOGY, NO MATTER HOW GOOD IT MAY SEEM, THEY PUT IT THIS WAY.

WE CANNOT PUT THE WORD AND THE WORK OF THE LORD IN THE SERVICE OF ANY ARBITRARILY CHOSEN DESIRES, PURPOSES AND PLANS.

LET'S PLAY LET'S PRAY, FATHER, WE NEED TO BE ONE NATION UNDER YOU.

YOU FIRST THAT WE WOULD LOVE YOU WITH ALL OUR HEART, SOUL, MIND, AND STRENGTH, AND THEN LOVE OUR NEIGHBORS AS OURSELVES THAT WE WOULD LIVE ACCORDING TO YOUR WORD, BECAUSE IT IS THE BASIS OF WHAT VALUES REALLY ARE BY YOUR HOLY SPIRIT.

LORD, DO THAT FOR US.

DO THAT IN THIS MEETING AND IN THIS COMMUNITY FOR IT'S IN CHRIST'S NAME, WE PRAY.

AMEN.

[00:25:04]

[7. Citizens Comments]

ITEM NUMBER SEVEN ON THE AGENDA.

WHICH ASSISTANCE COMMENTS? SORRY.

YES, WE HAVE ONE.

SO THIS IS CALLED THAT THIS EVENING, MR. FRANK WILEY.

THAT'S A HARD ACT TO FOLLOW RIGHT THERE.

SHE TOOK CARE OF FOUR OF MY KIDS.

I, UM, I WANTED TO COME UP TONIGHT JUST TO KIND OF FOLLOW UP ON A TOWN HALL.

WE HAD LAST MONTH, UH, REGARDING THE TRAFFIC ISSUE.

I KNOW THAT AS MAYOR GORE HELD A TOWN HALL IN HERE, CHIEF LIGHTENER WAS IN HERE.

UM, AND THERE WAS SOME DISCUSSION.

UM, SOME CITIZENS WERE TALKING ABOUT THINGS BEING LIKE A TIME SENSITIVE ISSUE AND THEY WERE KIND OF CONCERNED.

AND THERE WAS MENTIONED THAT, UM, THAT IT COULD BE BROUGHT IN FRONT OF COUNCIL TO KIND OF DISCUSS IF THERE WAS ANYTHING THAT COULD BE DONE TO HELP THE POLICE DEPARTMENT POSSIBLY BY GIVING THEM EXTRA RESOURCES AND SUCH.

I WAS JUST WONDERING BEFORE IT KIND OF SLIPS OFF EVERYBODY'S MIND, IF THERE WAS ANY, UM, CURRENT IDEAS OF WHAT MAY BE COMING AND WHAT PEOPLE CAN KIND OF LOOK FORWARD TO TO SEE HOW WE CAN HELP THE POLICE DEPARTMENT HELP US HAVE SAFER STREETS OUT THERE.

HEY, FRANK, I THINK WE ARE, UM, AS WE SAW TONIGHT, WE ARE, WE'VE BEEN HIRING.

I THINK WE ARE NOW 50, UH, 54 OFFICERS.

UM, I THINK IS, IS THAT THE AMOUNT THAT IS, THAT IS FUNDED, UH, IN TERMS OF, AND SCOTT HE'S PUT YOU ON THE SPOT.

WE CAN CERTAINLY GET THAT, GET THAT INFORMATION FOR YOU, FRANK.

NOPE, NOPE, NO PROBLEM AT ALL.

EXCELLENT.

UM, AND I THINK WE'VE ALWAYS BEEN, UH, CERTAINLY WELCOMED TO, UH, ANYTHING THAT THE CHIEF WOULD NEED FROM MS. COUNCIL WHEN IT COMES TO PUBLIC SAFETY, THERE'S ANYBODY UP HERE DOESN'T SUPPORT PUBLIC SAFETY A HUNDRED PERCENT.

AND SO, UH, IF WE EVER RECEIVED THE REQUEST TO, TO HIRE MORE OFFICERS THAN, UH, I MEAN, IN TERMS OF RE I'M ASSUMING THAT THAT'S WHAT YOU MEAN BY RESOURCES, RESOURCES, WITH MORE PEOPLE, UM, THERE WAS MORE STAFFING ABOUT NOT HAVING A TRAFFIC DIVISION IN PARTICULAR.

AND I KNOW THAT WAS SOMETHING THAT, UM, THAT WAS KIND OF BANDED AROUND A LITTLE BIT AND I LIVE WITH BUDGET CONSIDERATIONS FOR THAT.

I JUST WANTED TO SEE IF THERE WAS ANY IDEA SINCE WE HAVE EVERYBODY WITH A COUNCIL HERE TONIGHT TO SEE IF ANYBODY HAD ANY THOUGHTS ABOUT, UM, AN IDEA OF HOW WE MIGHT BE ABLE TO MAKE A TRAFFIC DIVISION POSSIBLE.

CAUSE WE DO HAVE, AND THESE NEW HIRES ARE GREAT.

AND YOU DID TALK ABOUT HOW THERE IS COVERAGE FOR THE DIFFERENT BEATS AROUND TOWN, BUT WITH OUR CALL-OUTS AND EVERYTHING ELSE, THEY REALLY CAN'T BE DEDICATED TO, YOU KNOW, PATROLLING SOME OF THE MORE RIGHT NOW CONGESTED AREAS OR HIGH TRAFFIC FLOW.

AND HIGH-SPEED AREAS SUCH AS TROY AND BRANDON, SOME OF THE NEIGHBORHOODS THAT WERE BROUGHT UP IN, UH, IN THE CONVERSATION.

SURE.

AND I THINK WHAT WE'LL PROBABLY, YOU KNOW, SO WE'RE GETTING READY TO, UM, AS I'M LOOKING AT OUR NEXT WORD SEC WORK SESSION AGENDA, EXCUSE ME.

UH, WE ARE GOING TO BE STARTING TO DISCUSSIONS AROUND OUR CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PLAN, WHICH IS KIND OF THE BEGINNING OF OUR BUDGET DISCUSSIONS GOING INTO NEXT YEAR.

SO I THINK CERTAINLY, UH, THAT TRAFFIC DIVISION AND SERVICES WE CAN TALK ABOUT FROM A BUDGETING PERSPECTIVE.

UM, BUT ABSOLUTELY WE, WE KNOW WE'VE GOT SOME ISSUES.

I HOPE THAT THE RESIDENTS WHO HAVE WATCHED THAT TOWN HALL ARE TAKING TO HEART, SOME OF THE THINGS THAT THE CHIEF SAID, A LOT OF IT WAS EDUCATION, UNDERSTANDING HOW THE DIFFERENT BEATS WORK.

I THINK A LOT OF THAT IS JUST TRYING TO HELP OUR RESIDENTS UNDERSTAND HOW THE POLICE ACTUALLY WORK IN THE COMMUNITY IN REGARD TO TRAFFIC CONTROL.

BUT THAT'S CERTAINLY SOMETHING THAT I THINK WE CAN BEGIN THE DISCUSSIONS AROUND AS WE START, UH, THE 20, 22 BUDGET DISCUSSIONS, UH, WHICH REALLY ARE KIND OF COMING UP RIGHT AROUND THE CORNER.

EXCELLENT.

AGENDA ITEMS, MS. PALS OR ANYONE THIS EVENING? UM, ANGELICA GARCIA JUST ASKED TO SPEAK WHEN WE GET TO THE SKATE PARK ITEM.

NOW MOTION ALSO CARRIES EIGHT TO ZERO.

[ A Resolution Authorizing The Law Director To Register An Objection To A Liquor Permit Renewal And Request A Hearing. (first reading)]

UH, THANK YOU.

UH, COUNSEL MAY RECALL THAT WE HAD AN ISSUE WITH, UH, A LICENSED ESTABLISHMENT AT 54 78 BRAND PIKE ABOUT A YEAR AGO.

AT THAT POINT IN TIME, IT WAS DOING BUSINESS AS SNEAKY D'S AND WE FILED AN OBJECTION TO THEIR RENEWAL.

UH, SUBSEQUENTLY

[00:35:01]

WE RECEIVED A REQUEST FOR A TRANSFER FROM SNEAKY D'S TO ANOTHER ENTITY LED MORE POCKET OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT, DOING BUSINESS AS SENSATIONS.

AND WE DETERMINED IT WITH BASICALLY THE SAME OWNERSHIP GROUP.

SO WE OBJECTED TO THAT LIQUOR CONTROL SAID, WE'LL HAVE A HEARING ON IT SOON WITH COVID.

UM, HERE WE ARE IN MAY OF 2021, AND THERE STILL HASN'T BEEN THAT HEARING FROM THOSE OBJECTIONS AND WE ARE NOW UP FOR RENEWAL AGAIN.

AND SO TO MAKE SURE WE KEEP OUR, UM, OBJECTIONS RELEVANT, UH, WE'RE FILING A, A, ANOTHER, UH, COMPLAINT WITH THIS ONE.

UH, WE HAVE, UH, MAP OR DISCUSSIONS WITH THE CHIEF OF POLICE.

THERE HAVE BEEN INCIDENCES AT THAT LOCATION.

THEY ARE FAR LESS THAN THEY WERE, BUT THEN AGAIN, DUE TO COVID, IT WAS CLOSE FOR AN EXTENDED PERIOD OF TIME.

SO, UH, THIS IS SIMPLY TO AUTHORIZE US TO CONTINUE THE SAME OBJECTIONS THAT WE WERE DEALING WITH LAST YEAR.

I BELIEVE THERE WAS SOME DISCUSSION AT LAST TIME REGARDING, UH, IS THERE LIQUOR PERMIT VALID NOW ARE, DO THEY HAVE A LIQUOR PERMIT THERE? THAT'S ALLOWING THEM TO SERVE ALCOHOL? I THINK RICHARD WENT ABROAD THAT MIGHT'VE BROUGHT, DID YOU BRING THAT UP AND ACTUALLY ASKED? SO WHAT IS THE STATUS OF THAT? THE, UH, ACCORDING TO THE WEBSITE, THE LIQUOR LICENSE IS CURRENTLY UNDER THE NAME OF SNEAKY D'S.

UM, AND THAT THAT'S WHAT WAS SUPPOSED TO HAVE THE LICENSE.

THERE IS A PENDING APPLICATION FOR THE TRANSFER FOR SENSATIONS.

MY UNDERSTANDING IS SOMETHING CALLED KODIAK IS OPERATING.

SO IT IS NOT AT ALL CLEAR TO ME.

AND THAT'S GOING TO BE PART OF OUR OBJECTION IS THAT THIS CURRENT ESTABLISHMENT IS, IS IT, OR IS IT NOT OPERATING UNDER A VALID LICENSE? AND THE PROBLEM IS YOU CAN'T GET ANY ANSWERS OUT OF LIQUOR CONTROL ON THAT.

CAUSE THEY SAY, WELL, EVERYTHING IS JUST BASICALLY HELD IN THE BAND'S WHILE YOU GO THROUGH THE HEARINGS TYPE OF THING.

SO TECHNICALLY SPEAKING, IT'S STILL THE SNEAKY D'S LICENSE THAT IS THERE.

THANK YOU, MR. RUDON.

RICHARD DOES THAT OKAY, GOOD.

THANK YOU, MARY.

UM, JERRY, WOULD THAT BE IN SAID, AND IT KIND OF SOUNDED LIKE, UH, UH, WE DON'T KNOW REALLY WHO'S ON FIRST RIGHT NOW.

UM, BECAUSE YOU SAY THE CURRENT LIQUOR PERMIT IS, UH, UNDER THE OPERATION OF ONE NAME, THEY'RE OPERATING UNDERNEATH A DIFFERENT NAME WITH A PENDING APPLICATION FOR A TRANSFER.

SO WITH THAT BEING SAID, UM, IT SOUNDS LIKE THEY'RE STILL OPERATING, UM, AGAINST THE CITY'S OBJECTION, THE LIQUOR BOARD, IN MY OPINION, UM, IS FAILING TO HEAR OUR OBJECTION.

WHAT IS THIS COUNCIL'S NEXT OPTION? WELL, WE'RE FILING THE OBJECTION HERE, AND THIS OBJECTION IS GOING TO HAVE SOMETHING NEW, WHICH IS THAT THEY ARE OPERATING AS A, A BAR UNDER THE NAME OF KODAK, WHICH IS NOT LICENSED FOR ANYTHING.

UM, AND THEY PRESUMABLY ARE OPERATING BASED ON THE TRANSFER OF LICENSE THAT HAS NOT BEEN PROVEN, APPROVED, AND BASED ON THE LICENSE THAT HAS WAS UP FOR RENEWAL AND WAS OBJECTED TO, BUT THEY JUST HAVEN'T HAD ANY HEARINGS.

SO, UM, UNFORTUNATELY WE DON'T HAVE ANY ABILITY TO GO AND SHUT THEM DOWN FOR A LIQUOR LICENSE VIOLATION THAT'S SOLELY UNDER THE STATE, BUT WE CAN RAISE THOSE OBJECTIONS.

AND WE FULLY INTEND TO, SORRY.

I REMEMBER WHEN, UH, I THINK THE, THE OWNER OF KODIAK OR WHAT IT IS, I BELIEVE DIDN'T SHE SEND ALL OF COUNSEL ON EMAIL.

IT SEEMS TO ME LIKE I REMEMBER I REMEMBER THAT.

SO LAST YEAR, SOMETIME WHENEVER IT WAS, SHE SAW US AN EMAIL, IT'S KIND OF LET HER KNOW WHAT HER, LET US KNOW WHAT HER INTENTIONS WERE, BUT THAT EMAIL WAS SENT UNDER THE NAME OF LIGHT KODIAK.

KODIAK IS ACTUALLY REGISTERED WITH THE SNAP LIQUOR CONTROL WITH THE OHIO SECRETARY OF STATE AS A TRADE NAME FOR IT'S EITHER POCKET LATTER, MORE LATTER, MORE POCKET LEGACY LLC.

WHICH IS THE SAME ENTITY THAT THE ORIGINAL PROPOSED TRANSFER WAS, EXCEPT IT WAS LATIMAR POCKET ALLAH LEGACY, LLC, DOING BUSINESS AS SENSATIONS, AS OPPOSED TO DOING BUSINESS AS KODAK.

I THINK LIQUOR CONTROL IS JUST GOING TO LOOK AT KODAK AND SENSATIONS AND SAY WHATEVER.

IT'S STILL LED MORE PUPPET, LADDER, MORE PUB PUCKETT, L LEGACY LLC.

THAT'S REQUESTING IT.

AND I'M UNDER THE ASSUMPTION THAT IF THEY'RE SELLING ALCOHOL, THEY HAVE A VALID LICENSE TO DO SO.

BUT ACCORDING TO LIKE A CONTROL'S WEBSITE, THAT LICENSE IS STILL IN THE NAME OF SNEAKY DS.

SO THAT'S AN ENTIRE THAT THAT'S DANCE ENTERTAINMENT OR GANTT AMUSEMENT.

SO IT SOUNDS TO ME LIKE THEY'RE OPERATING UNDER, UNDER, AND WE'LL GET THAT WORKED OUT THROUGH THE LIQUOR CONTROL BOARD, BUT JUST FOR DISCUSSION SAKE, IT SOUNDS RIGHT.

THEY'RE OPERATING UNDER A NAME BECAUSE OF SOMEONE ELSE WHO BOUGHT THE BUSINESS BECAUSE SHE EMAILED US AND LET US KNOW SHE WAS BUYING THE BUSINESS AND IT'S STILL OPERATING NOW UNDER THE OLD LIQUOR PERMIT IS AT LEAST WHAT IT SOUNDS LIKE AT FACE VALUE.

SO YEAH, I AGREE.

WE WE'VE, WE'VE GOT TO MAKE SURE WE GET THIS

[00:40:01]

TAKEN CARE OF.

SO THE, THE GOOD NEWS ON THE WHOLE THING IS THAT THE EXTENT OF VIOLATIONS, UM, HAS SLOWED DOWN A LITTLE BIT.

I MEAN, THEY'RE STILL THERE AND THEY WERE THERE IN THE PAST AND YOU KNOW, WE'RE STILL GOING TO OBJECT.

AND THE FACT THAT IT'S, WE HAVEN'T HEARD A LOT ABOUT IT.

IT'S ALWAYS A GOOD SIGN.

UM, BUT LIKE WE SAID, PART OF THAT REASON MAY BE LIMITATIONS ON THAT.

A LOT OF PEOPLE ARE GOING TO WRITE TO THE BUYERS NOW, BUT YEAH, WE ARE ON TOP OF IT AND WE HAVE BEEN, AND WE'VE BEEN REGULARLY SENDING LIQUOR CONTROL DIVISION REQUESTS FOR UPS UPDATES.

I KNOW MR. SHAW HAS BEEN ASKING ABOUT THAT.

SO I'VE BEEN COPYING HIM ON IT AS WE GO ALONG.

SO IT HASN'T BEEN LIKE WE JUST NOT DOING ANYTHING RIGHT.

AND REGULARLY TRYING TO GET A HEARING FOR THIS.

UP IS ITEM 11 C UNDER ADMINISTRATION, MR. FALKOWSKI AND I APOLOGIZE, MS. POWELL FOOD READS YOUR FRIDGE AND FREEZER LEGISLATION FOR ITEM 11, SEE A RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO ENTER INTO A SHORT TERM CONTRACT RENEWAL, BUT DEMPSEY WASTE SYSTEMS. SECOND TO RTA DBA REPUBLIC SERVICES, A DATE AND FOR CITY-WIDE SOLID WASTE COLLECTION AND DISPOSAL, INCLUDING SERVICES FOR TRASH RECYCLING AND YARD WAYS FOR RESIDENTIAL DWELLINGS AT THE FIRST READING AND A WE'LL CALL IT OUR INTERIM CITY MANAGER, MR. MCCALSKY FOR COMMENTS.

ANY OTHER QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS FROM ANY OF THE COUNCIL MEMBERS? OKAY.

UH, WHO WORKS HARD? ONE RECOMMENDATION WAS TO ADOPT THIS ITEM THIS EVENING.

IS THERE A MOTION, MOTION TO ADOPT SECOND, MR. CAMPBELL.

SECOND, I HAVE A MOTION AND A SECOND.

IS THERE ANY OTHER DISCUSSION THIS EVENING? MS. PALFREY COLD ROLL PLEASE.

AND MR. CAMPBELL? YES.

AND THE MOTION ALSO CARRIES EIGHT TO ZERO.

[ A Resolution Authorizing The City Manager To Enter Into A Short-Term Contract Renewal With Dempsey Waste Systems, II DBA Republic Services Of Dayton For City Wide Solid Waste Collection And Disposal Including Services For Trash Recycling And Yard Waste For Residential Dwellings. (first reading)]

UH, YES, AS DISCUSSED, UH, THE EXISTING CONTRACT FOR TRASH HAULING ENDS ON JUNE 30TH OF THIS YEAR.

UM, WE DID DISCUSS THE, UH, OPPORTUNITY TO, UH, EXTEND THE EXISTING CONTRACT FOR ONE MONTH TO ALLOW FOR MORE DISCUSSION.

AND, UH, THEY HAVE A GREAT TO THAT AS WELL.

THANK YOU, SCOTT.

ARE THERE ANY, UM, WELL, FIRST OF ALL, IS THERE A MOTION MR. SHAW? UM, I ACTUALLY HAVE AN AMENDMENT TO THIS.

IF I MAY GET A MOTION, I WOULD LOOK FOR, I GUESS JERRY IS A, IS AN AMENDMENT TO THIS APPROPRIATE.

THERE WE GO.

UH, WE DON'T HAVE A MOTION YET, SO, UM, I THINK IT IS APPROPRIATELY.

THAT'S SOMETHING THAT COULD BE ENTERTAINED IF HE HAS A SECOND.

SO YES, MR. SHAW, IF HE'D READ YOUR AMENDMENT, THANK YOU, MAYOR.

UH, IN THE, IN THE RESOLUTION THAT DOES SPEAK OF SHORT TERM, HOWEVER, THERE IS NO DATE IN THERE.

UH, IT IS MY RECOMMENDATION TO PUT AN ACTUAL DATE IN THERE AT THE END.

SURE.

AT THE END OF SECTION ONE WILL EXPIRE JUNE 30TH, 2021, JUNE OR JULY, EXCUSE ME, THIRD YEAR.

GREAT.

AND SO THERE IS THAT THE, JUST TO CLARIFY, THAT'S THE SHORT TERM AGREEMENT, UM, AS, AS PREVIOUSLY STATED, THE ORIGINAL AGREEMENT WE HAVE NOW IS JUNE 30TH, RIGHT? CORRECT.

I JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT THAT WAS CLEAR.

I HAD SOME, SOME RESIDENT FEEDBACK ON THAT.

MR. MCDONALD.

I KNOW WE HAD A PHONE CALL ON THAT EARLIER.

I JUST WANTED TO BRING THAT UP TO THE ATTENTION TODAY TO MAKE SURE THAT THAT WASN'T OKAY.

SO THIS IS EXTENDING THE CONTRACT AS OF NOW TO JULY THE 30TH FROM JUNE THE 30TH AND REPUBLICANS AGREED TO DO SO.

AND IT'S OKAY.

JUST FOR INFORMATION, JULY HAS 31 DAYS, BUT THE 30TH IT'S ON A FRIDAY.

SO WE JUST ENDED IT ON A DAY THAT THERE MAY ACTUALLY BE COLLECTIONS OR SOMETHING, AS I WAS TRYING TO SAY.

AND MARY, I DO APOLOGIZE.

I DON'T KNOW IF IT WAS MORE OF A STATEMENT MORE THAN A YEAH.

MS. PAL ITEM 11, D A RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO PURCHASE EQUIPMENT AND SERVICES TO FINALIZE CERTAIN CAPITAL IMPROVEMENTS TO THE STEWARD.

NO PROBLEM.

ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? WELL, FIRST WE NEED AN EMOTION.

MR. OTTO WILL HAVE TO ADOPT, IS THERE A SECOND, SECOND WAS BAKER SECONDS.

ANY DISCUSSION ON THE EXTENSION TO JULY THE 30TH CASING? MS. POWELL, IF YOU CALL THE ROLL PLEASE.

SO THE EXTENSION RESOLUTION CARRIES EIGHT TO ZERO AND NEXT

[ A Resolution Authorizing The City Manager To Purchase Equipment And Services To Finalize Certain Capital Improvements To The Stuart And Mimi Rose Music Center At The Heights Including Magnetometers And Installation Of Sound Baffles And Waiving The Competitive Bidding Requirements. (first reading)]

UP IS ITEM 11, D

[00:45:01]

MIMI ROSE MUSIC CENTER AT THE HEIGHTS, INCLUDING MAGNETOMETERS AND INSTALLATION OF SOUND BAFFLES AND WAVING THE COMPETITIVE BIDDING REQUIREMENTS AT THE FIRST READING.

MR. MCCALSKY, I GUESS THIS ITEM IS TO MOVE FORWARD WITH A COUPLE OF THOSE CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROJECTS FOR SAFETY AND FOR SOUND RELATED, UH, ISSUES.

IS THERE A MOTION MR. WEBB? SO I'M SORRY, A SECOND AS A BAKER FOR A MOTION AND A SECOND.

IS THERE ANY DISCUSSION REGARDING THE MAGNUM METERS AND THE SOUND BAFFLES, MR. WEBB? THANK YOU, MAYOR.

UH, SCOTT, CAN YOU, UM, GIVE US THE JUSTIFICATION FOR, UH, WAIVING COMPETITIVE BIDDING ON THIS? UM, TH THIS ITEM ACTUALLY OUR, UH, PARTNER EMI, THEY WENT OUT AND GOT QUOTES FOR THIS.

THE WAVING IS, UH, BECAUSE OF THE DOLLAR AMOUNT IS OVER 25,000 THAT THIS DOES NOT GO OUT TO THE ADVERTISEMENT AND COMPETITIVE BIDDING FROM THE CITY ITSELF.

SO PART OF THE PROCESS WAS DONE OF GETTING THE QUOTES.

UM, THIS PROJECT IS JUST SO THAT WE CAN MOVE FORWARD WITH, UM, THE RESULTS THAT THEY OBTAINED.

THANK YOU, SIR.

GREAT CLARIFICATION.

ANY OTHER QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS, MR. SHAWL? THANK YOU, MARY.

AND IT'S KIND OF FOR CLARIFICATION.

THIS IS NOT THE FIRST TIME WE'VE BROUGHT THIS TOPIC UP.

THIS HAS BEEN DISCUSSED PREVIOUSLY.

UM, CORRECT.

UH, YES, LAST YEAR THE PROJECT STARTED WITH, UH, THE FABRIC FOR THE BAFFLING THAT, UH, WE DID GO AHEAD AND MAKE THAT PURCHASE LAST YEAR PRIOR TO WHAT COULD HAVE BEEN A SEASON, BUT, UH, WE ENDED UP NOT HAVING THE SEASON.

SO JUST THE CONTINUATION AND THAT WAS IN CORRELATION WITH A LOT OF THE ADDITIONAL UPDATES THAT WE DID AT THE ROSE MUSIC CENTER LAST YEAR, UH, WITH SOME OF THE CARROTS FUNDING.

SO THIS IS JUST KIND OF AN ONGOING WITH THE SAFETY AND THE UPDATES THAT WERE ALREADY DISCUSSED.

THAT'S EXACTLY RIGHT.

AND NEXT UP WE HAVE ITEM 11, IE, MS. PAL, I DON'T KNOW, 11 E A RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO SOLICIT, ADVERTISE AND RECEIVE PROPOSALS FROM QUALIFIED FIRMS FOR THE CONSTRUCTION AND INSTALLATION OF A MULTI-USE SKATE PARK AND BMX TRACK TO BE LOCATED WITHIN MANITA FIELD PARK ON FITCHBURG ROAD TO INCLUDE OTHER THINGS, MODULAR WRITING SERVICES, EARTH, AND FEATURES, PATHWAYS, LANDSCAPING, SIGNAGE, AND OTHER NECESSARY, A PERTINENT AT THE FIRST READING.

MA'AM ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? COMMENTS, MS. PAL, MR. LYONS? YES.

AND MOTION CARRIES EIGHT TO ZERO.

[ A Resolution Authorizing The City Manager To Solicit, Advertise And Receive Proposals From Qualified Firms For The Construction And Installation Of A Multi-Use Skate Park And BMX Track To Be Located Within Monita Field Park On Fishburg Road To Include Other Things, Modular Riding Surfaces, Earthen Features, Pathways, Landscaping, Signage, And Other Necessary Appurtenances. (first reading)]

THANK YOU, MS. PAL, IS THERE A MOTION MR. SHAW MOTION TO ADOPT THERE A SECOND? MR. WEBB OR, WELL, SOCCER HAVE A MOTION ON THE SECOND AND NOW DISCUSSION.

SO IF, IF YOU ALL WILL NOTICE, THIS IS A LITTLE DIFFERENT THAN WHAT WE HAD TALKED ABOUT AT THE, AT THE WORK SESSION, THE WORK SESSION WE TALKED ABOUT GOING AND GETTING STARTED, AND ACTUALLY, UH, MR. CAMPBELL WOULD EVEN MENTION THAT THIS WOULD BE SOMETHING WOULD BE WAIVING THE COMPETITIVE BIDDING REQUIREMENTS ON.

AND THEN AFTER, UH, AFTER THE MEETING, UH, THERE HAS ACTUALLY BEEN JUST MORE INFORMATION AVAILABLE.

WE'VE HAD, UH, IN FACT, THERE'S ONLY HEARING MICHAEL WANTS TO SPEAK ABOUT THIS, AND WE'VE HAD SOME PEOPLE REACH OUT AGAIN REGARDING SOME THINGS THEY'D LIKE TO SEE IN THE SKATE PARK AND THINGS LIKE THAT.

SO I THINK, UH, WITH ALL THOSE THINGS BEING SAID, AND THEN MR. CAMPBELL HAD CALLED AND SAID, YOU KNOW, LOOK, I, AND I AGREE WITH THEM, THE DISCUSSION WE HAD REGARDING WAVING THE COMPETITIVE BIDDING ON THIS PARTICULAR PROJECT, IT REALLY DOESN'T MAKE ANY SENSE TO DO THAT.

I DON'T THINK THAT THE TIMEFRAME, UH, THAT 75 DAYS GOING OUT TO ACTUALLY SOLICIT BIDS VERSUS WAIVING THE BIDDING REQUIREMENT, ESPECIALLY SINCE WE HAVE MORE INFORMATION COME TO LIGHT, MORE PEOPLE ARE STILL OFFERING FEEDBACK.

I THINK IT JUST MAKES IT JUST MAKES SENSE TO DO THAT.

SO THAT'S WHY THIS IS ON HERE THIS EVENING AS SOLICITING BIDS, RATHER THAN AWARDING THE BID THAT WE HAD BEFORE.

UH, SO SCOTT, I WOULD JUST ASK, YOU CAN USE VERIFY THAT THE, KIND OF THE TIMEFRAME, UH, AND HOW THAT WILL LOOK NOW THAT WE'RE GOING TO, UH, WE'RE GOING TO BID ON THESE THINGS AND WE'RE GONNA, IF PASSED TONIGHT, UH, WE WILL, UH, ADVERTISE FOR THE END OF THIS WEEK TO ACTUALLY PUT OUT TO BID AND HAVE A BID WINDOW TO BE ABLE TO COME BACK TO COUNCIL FOR THE FIRST MEETING IN JUNE FOR AWARD OF BID, AND THEY'LL HAVE THE DIFFERENT SECTIONS IN THERE THAT, UH, DIFFERENT PEOPLE CAN BID ON WHETHER IT'S THE RAMPS THEMSELVES OR THE CONCRETE PAD, THE, UH, THE PARKING LOT, UH, WORK, UH, THE, THE, UH, BIKE TRACK.

THOSE KINDS OF THINGS WILL BE SEPARATE IN THERE.

SO WITH THIS, UH, WITH THAT TIME SCHEDULE, UM, THEN BEING ABLE TO AWARD AND MOVE FORWARD,

[00:50:01]

DIFFERENT PARTS CAN BE DONE AT THE EXACT SAME TIME.

WHILE CERTAIN LEAD TIMES ON MATERIALS ARE COMING FROM ONE, THE CONCRETE PAD CAN BE INSTALLED.

UM, AND, UH, STILL THIS PROJECT CAN MOVE FORWARD, UM, BY THE END OF SUMMER.

YOU COMPLETED, THANK YOU, SCOTT.

UH, BEFORE WE, UM, BRING UP THE PERSON'S TREASURE TO SPEAK, IS THERE ANY QUESTIONS, COMMENTS FROM COUNCIL, MR. SHAW, THANK YOU, SCOTT.

I DON'T WANT TO GET AHEAD OF US ON THE AGENDA ITEMS. UM, BUT, UH, I ASSUME THAT SOME COMMENTS SIMILAR TO THAT WILL BE MADE FOR ITEM F UM, IT IS, IT IS MY OPINION, AND PLEASE CORRECT ME IF I'M WRONG.

UH, WHILE WE GO OUT TO BID AND SOLICIT THESE BIDS, UH, FOR BOTH OF THESE, UM, PARKS FOR ENF, UM, IT IS, UH, I BELIEVE IT WAS THE ASSUMPTION OF, UH, MR. KING THAT, UH, THERE MAY BE SEVERAL VENDORS, IF NOT A FEW THAT MAY BE ABLE TO OVERLAP AND DO SOME OF THE PROJECTS AT THE SAME TIME TO BRING DOWN THE COSTS.

WOULD YOU KIND OF ELABORATE ON THAT A LITTLE BIT? SURE.

TH THERE ARE, UM, DIFFERENT COMPANIES THAT DO SIMILAR WORK THAT MAY OVERLAP BETWEEN THESE TWO, AS PART OF THE BID PROCESS.

THEY CAN BID ON MULTIPLE ITEMS AND HAVE SOME COST SHARINGS IF AVAILABLE.

EXCELLENT.

THANK YOU, MR. CAMPBELL.

UH, SCOTT, UH, RICHARD JUST BROUGHT UP ENF OUR SISTER PIECES OF LEGISLATION.

COULD, COULD YOU CLARIFY WHAT E AND WHAT F IS? OKAY.

UH, SO THE, THE ONE ON THE TABLE RIGHT NOW, HE IS FOR THE IMPROVEMENTS AT MONITA FIELD PARK.

UH, SO THERE IS THE SKATE PARK, UH, WITH THE BMX TRACK AND THEN INCLUDING SOME PARKING LOT IMPROVEMENTS AS WELL.

THAT'S DETERIORATED ON LETTER F THAT IS FOR DIAL PARK FOR SOME BICYCLE TRAILS, TRACKS, UM, PUMP TRACK, UM, AND DIFFERENT KINDS OF PATHS AS WELL.

SO PARK IMPROVEMENTS.

AND RICHARD, DOES THIS SATISFY YOUR VISION FOR DIAL PARK? WHEN WE GET TO ITEM F I DON'T, I CAN'T SAY IT'S GOING TO SATISFY, BUT I THINK IT'S A STEP IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION.

UM, I KNOW, UH, WHAT WOULD WE NEED TO DO TO SATISFY COMPLETE THE VISION FOR DONALD PARK AND, AND W WITH DONALD PARK, I THINK IS, UH, ONCE WE GET THOSE, UM, THOSE BITS BACK, UM, I KNOW THERE WAS A SMALL CONCEPTUAL DRAWING THAT WAS DONE, UM, OF DIAL PARKS, SOME, SOME LAYOUTS.

I LIKE TO SEE THAT REFRESHED A BIT WHEN THOSE COME BACK.

UM, I'D ALSO, UH, UM, I HAVE HAD SOME ADDITIONAL FEEDBACK SINCE, UM, THIS DISCUSSION, UM, AS WELL AS SOME OTHER INDIVIDUALS I'VE REACHED OUT TO IN THE PAST.

UM, AND JUST, YOU KNOW, MAKING SURE THAT, UH, YOU KNOW, WHAT THE NEIGHBORS HAVE BEEN ASKING FOR FOR MANY YEARS, UM, IS GOING TO BE SEEN IN THERE AS WELL AS THE MOUNTAIN BIKE ASSOCIATION.

UM, AND IN CORRELATION WITH, WITH MANITA THAT WE'RE MAKING SURE THAT WE'RE GETTING THE BEST BANG FOR A BUCK.

AND, AND OUR GOAL TONIGHT ON ENF IS TO SATISFY THAT VISION THAT I THINK YOU BROUGHT TO THE TABLE.

2019.

SO, SO A YES.

VOTE FOR E AND AN S A YES.

VOTE FOR F WOULD ACCOMPLISH THAT AND SOMETHING THAT I KNOW THAT YOU'VE WORKED HARD ON FOR A COUPLE OF YEARS.

AND I THINK SOME OF THE WORK THAT'S WENT INTO THE DIAL ROAD DOLL DRIVE PROJECT, UH, IS GOING TO, UH, BENEFIT US AT THE MINETA FIELD PROJECT.

I PROJECT SERVE SIMILAR IN SCOPE.

AND IN, HOPEFULLY WE CAN TAKE ADVANTAGE OF, UH, THE CONTRACTORS MAY BE ABLE TO BID ON BOTH AT THE SAME TIME AND, AND GET SOME COST BENEFIT.

SO I'M GLAD TO SEE BOTH OF THESE ON THE AGENDA.

AND, AND, AND I KNOW THAT GLEN HAS, UH, APPLIED A LOT OF EFFORT IN THE DOLL DRIVE, UH, PROJECT AS WELL.

SO, UM, YOU KNOW, I'M GLAD TO SEE US CONTINUE TO EXPAND OUR PARKS.

UM, I THOUGHT LAST WEEK I WAS, I REQUESTED THE TIME AND COST AND DRAWINGS FOR TILE.

I HAVE NOT SEEN THAT YET.

UM, THE THAT'S PART OF WHAT THE BIDDING PROCESS WILL BE IS FOR FEDERAL SET UP SOME OF THAT TIME THAT THEY HAD SOMETHING SINCE 19.

SO I HAVE NOT SEEN THOSE EVEN OPENING TO START WITH.

SO I'D LIKE TO SAY THAT WE ASKED FOR THAT LAST WEEK, I'LL MAKE SURE THAT IT GETS OUT TO YOU FIRST THING IN THE MORNING.

ANY OTHER QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS FOR ITEM E? DID WE HAVE A YES, I APOLOGIZE.

YES, ABSOLUTELY.

JUST TELL US YOUR NAME.

YOU HAVE TO TELL US WHERE YOU LIVE AND THEN, UH, CERTAINLY, UH,

[00:55:01]

THE MIC IS YOURS.

SWEET.

SO MY NAME IS ANGELICA GARCIA.

I LIVE IN HUBER HEIGHTS OFF SHALIMAR, ACTUALLY.

AND I WANTED TO TAKE A MOMENT TO JUST TALK ABOUT MY APPRECIATION FOR THESE TWO PROJECTS, AS WELL AS TO GIVE ANOTHER PERSPECTIVE AND AN EMPHASIS ON LIFELONG PHYSICAL ACTIVITY AND ENJOYMENT OF THESE TYPES OF FACILITIES.

IN HEBREW HEIGHTS, I HAD THE EXCELLENT OPPORTUNITY TO SPEAK, TO WATCH THE LAST WORK SESSION.

AND THEN I GOT TO SPEAK WITH MR. JOSH KING, AFTER THE WORDS TO DISCUSS SOME SKATE PARK FEATURES.

I WANTED TO KIND OF ILLUSTRATE SOME OF MY SKATING JOURNEY.

I LEARNED TO ROLLER SKATE, ACTUALLY LIKE WATER ROLLER SKATES, NOT ROLLER BLADES AT AGE 24 IN JANUARY, 2016.

AND THEN I LEARNED TO PLAY, I DID THAT SO THAT I COULD LEARN TO PLAY ROLLER DERBY A DAY AND HAS THEIR VERY OWN ROLLER DERBY LEAGUE GEM CITY ESTABLISHED IN 2006.

AND IT IS THIS COMMUNITY THAT IS GLOBAL.

IT'S NOT EVEN JUST GEM CITY OF PEOPLE WILLING TO ROLLERSKATE AND LEARNING TO DO THESE AMAZING THINGS ON SKATES, RIGHT? OUR LEAGUE, AND MANY OTHERS ARE AGE 18 AND ALL THE WAY UP, WE HAVE MEMBERS SKATING MEMBERS WHO ARE UPWARDS OF 50.

SO IT'S, IT'S PRETTY BROAD AND WHO IT REACHES AND NOT EVEN COUNTING THE ROLLER SKATING COMMUNITIES THAT APPEAR AT ROLLER RINKS, YOU KNOW, IN THE PANDEMIC, WE LOST THAT OUTLET BECAUSE IT'S A FULL CONTACT SPORT IN A SMALL ENCLOSED SPACE.

SO A LOT OF US TRANSFERRED THAT SORT OF PASSION FOR SKATING INTO PARK SKATING.

AND I'M NOT THE ONLY ONE.

AND THIS ISN'T JUST IN THE DAYTON AREA ON INSTAGRAM, THERE'S A GROUP CALLED SKATE AND DAYTON, AND THEY ORGANIZE WEEKLY MEETUPS.

AND UNFORTUNATELY THEY HAVEN'T BEEN ABLE TO TAKE ANY OF THOSE SESSIONS REALLY TO THE HEBREW HEIGHTS AREA, BECAUSE WE DON'T HAVE SOMETHING TO OFFER.

UH, THERE'S QUITE A FEW PARKS SOUTH OF US, WHICH HAS ALREADY BEEN ADDRESSED.

I THINK, UH, THE COUNCIL IS AWARE OF THAT.

UM, AND THERE'S A GOOD PLETHORA OF BEGINNER FEATURES IN COLUMBUS.

THAT'S AN HOUR AWAY.

THAT'S A LONG DRIVE FOR SOME OF THESE THINGS JUST TO, TO LEARN, TO DO SOMETHING THAT YOU THINK IS AWESOME.

SO I WANTED TO RECOGNIZE THAT THE EMPHASIS FOR BOTH OF THESE PROGRAMS HAVE BEEN ON PROVIDING A PLACE FOR YOUTH, BUT I DON'T WANT CHILDREN TO STOP ENJOYING ATHLETIC ACTIVITY.

THEY LOVE JUST BECAUSE THEY'RE ADULTS, YOU KNOW, THEY'RE GOING TO BECOME ADULTS.

LIFELONG ACTIVITY IS INCREDIBLY IMPORTANT AND WE GET OLDER, BUT WE DON'T NECESSARILY LOSE OUR PASSIONS.

AND SOMETIMES WE FIND NEW ONES.

I DID NOT LEARN TO DO THIS AS A CHILD AT ALL.

UM, BUT IT'S SOMETHING I REALLY, REALLY LOVE AND HAVE MADE THIS COMMITMENT TO LEARNING NEW SKILLS IN.

SO I DON'T WANT THAT PERSPECTIVE LOSS WHEN DISCUSSING BOTH MONITA AND DIAL AND THE TYPES OF FEATURES THAT ARE PRESENT.

I DID ALREADY, LIKE I SAID, GET TO SPEAK WITH MR. JOSH KING ABOUT THINGS LIKE TWO TO THREE FOOT, HALF PIPE RAMPS THAT ARE HIGH, ABOUT THREE FOOT HEIGHT SPINES.

AND I BELIEVE ALSO A FEW SMALLER FEATURES IN GRIND RAILS.

SO HONESTLY, KIDS ARE VERY BRAVE AND THEY WILL GO ON THE VERY LARGE FEATURES TO START.

AND SOMETIMES ADULTS NEED SOMETHING THAT IS MUCH MORE BEGINNER LEVEL TO GET COMFORTABLE.

SO WERE A LITTLE, A LITTLE LESS RESILIENT FOR LACK OF TRYING.

WE DEFINITELY WANT TO BE MORE RESILIENT.

BUT IT DOES NOT ALWAYS SUIT US.

SO I JUST WANTED TO MAKE THAT COMMENT AND THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME.

THANK YOU SO MUCH.

APPRECIATE YOU COMING HERE TONIGHT AND APPRECIATE YOU SPEAKING IN FRONT OF US.

AND, UH, YEAH.

SO I THINK WE TALKED ABOUT, YOU HAD EMAILED ME ABOUT SOME OF THE, THE SMALLER RAMPS FOR SOME OF THE BEGINNING ADULTS AND THINGS LIKE THAT.

I THINK WE HAD INCLUDED THAT AS PART OF OUR DISCUSSION LAST TIME.

AND SO I'M GLAD YOU WERE ABLE TO GET WITH JOSH AND, AND TALK.

AND I THINK THAT'S JUST ONE MORE REASON THAT SHOWS, UH, THE RIGHT DECISION IS GOOD AND PUT THIS OUT TO BID.

SO WE MAKE SURE WE ARE INCORPORATING ALL THAT.

WE'RE NOT RUSHING THIS AND WE'RE, WE'RE GETTING THIS RIGHT.

THAT'S I THINK THE MOST IMPORTANT THING.

SO THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR COMMENTS.

APPRECIATE THAT.

AND I DO LIKE TO STRESS THAT THOSE FEATURES AREN'T ANYWHERE IN THIS AREA, NOT EVEN AT THE OTHER SKATE PARKS THAN SO IF HEBER HEIGHTS PERCEIVES THESE KINDS OF FEATURES, WE WOULD DEFINITELY ATTRACT THE SURROUNDING AREA TO AN HOUR AND A HALF AWAY OF SCATTER.

SO THANK YOU.

AND THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT WE HOPE TO DO.

THANK YOU SO MUCH, LET'S IT? YEAH.

I'M NOT A SKATER MYSELF, SO I CAN'T REALLY SPEAK TO DIFFICULTY LEVELS AND WHATNOT.

YEAH, YEAH.

AGE GROUPS PARTICIPATE IN, USE THOSE TRACKS, WHICH I THOUGHT WAS A BIG DRAW FOR ME.

BUT, UM, UH, AND I CAN'T SPEAK TO THE, THE MANITA PROJECT.

I, I DIDN'T GET ANY INVOLVEMENT OR WASN'T INVOLVED IN THAT ONE, BUT I KNOW WITH THE DIAL PROJECT, IT WAS SPECIFICALLY DISCUSSED THAT THERE'S GOING TO BE MULTIPLE TRACKS AND IT'S PUMP TRACKS AND SKILLS TRACKS SO THAT YOU CAN HAVE ALL

[01:00:01]

WELL, IT'LL HAVE A LITTLE, YEAH, IT'LL BE A LITTLE LESS.

THAT WOULD NOT BE WELL.

RIGHT, RIGHT.

FOR SKATING ON GRAVEL.

THE GRAVEL TRACK WOULD NOT SEE THE SKATERS AS I UNDERSTOOD THE PUMP TRACK WAS A FOUR AND I NEVER UNDERSTOOD WHAT A PUMP BIKE WAS BEFORE THIS.

WE STARTED DOING THIS EITHER, BUT APPARENTLY IT HAS NO PEDALS CHAIN OR ANYTHING LIKE THAT.

IT'S JUST KIND OF PUSHED ALONG.

AND THAT'S A LEARNING TOOL FOR THE YOUNGER ONES.

AND SO THAT SPEAKS TO THE DIFFICULTY OR THE GRADE OF THESE TRACKS ARE GOING TO BE FLOWING AND PRETTY EASY TO USE.

AND I'M EXCITED ABOUT IT.

IT'S DEFINITELY INTERESTING.

I'M EXCITED TOO.

THERE'S A PUMP TRACK IN COLUMBUS AND I'VE BEEN ON IT.

IT'S A LOT OF FUN WORK.

THANK YOU FOR COMING OUT.

APPRECIATE IT.

IS THERE ANYTHING ELSE THAT YOU'D BE LOOKING FOR IN A PARK? UM, LIKE SPECIFIC TO FEATURES? YEAH.

WILL YOU MAKE SURE YOU COMMUNITY, IF YOU CAN'T THINK OF EVERYTHING TONIGHT, MAYBE THINK OF SOMETHING TOMORROW IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT.

HOLD ON.

I HAVE A LIST.

OKAY, GOOD.

THAT'S GOOD.

WE CAN LEARN SCOTT SCOTT, SCOTT HAD MORE PAPER.

LET ME GET MY LIST UP.

AND I HAVE SENT MR. KING, THE IMAGES THAT GO ALONG WITH THIS LIST.

SO I MENTIONED A TWO OR THREE FOOT FAULT, THREE FOOT TALL, HALF PIPE, AT LEAST FOUR FEET WIDE.

IT'S CONSIDERED A MICRO, UH, RAMP.

THAT'S WHAT IT'S 10 TENDS TO BE CALLED, AND IT SHOULD HAVE COPING THAT'S THE METAL BAR OR THE METAL METAL PIPE.

AND THAT FEATURE IS EXCELLENT FOR LEARNING TRICKS ON COPING, WHERE THE RIDER SPINS OR JUMPS.

SO YOU DON'T HAVE TO BE SUPER HIGH OFF THE GROUND AT TIG KIP.

THE TAKES A LOT OF COURAGE.

UM, THE SECOND FEATURE IS A FOUR OR FIVE FOOT, HALF PIPE CALLED A MINI.

SO IT ALLOWS THAT PROGRESSION BEFORE YOU GET TO A STANDARD SIZE HALF PIPE.

THE THIRD IS A ROUNDED GROUND GRIND RAIL, LESS THAN FIVE INCHES FROM THE GROUND.

THE LOWER, THE BETTER USUALLY HOMEMADE RAILS ARE ABOUT THAT SIZE.

BUT A LOT OF PROFESSIONAL REAL THINGS FEATURES AT SKATE PARKS ARE HIGHER, SO IT TAKES A LOT MORE COURAGE TO JUMP UP THERE.

AND IT'S A LOT.

AND THE FOURTH FEATURE THAT I RECOMMENDED IS A THREE OR FOUR FOOT TALL SPINE WITH A SINGLE COPING.

THAT'S A FEATURE WHERE, UM, THERE ARE TWO TRANSITIONS THAT MEET.

SO IT LOOKS KIND OF LIKE A SLOPE TRIANGLE WITH A SINGLE PIECE OF COPING ON THAT SPINE.

SOMETIMES THEY DO DOUBLE COPING, BUT I'D RECOMMEND SINGLE.

IT SHOULDN'T BE A DETRIMENT TO ANY BIKERS OR SKATEBOARDERS, BUT IT WOULD HELP ROLLER SKATERS.

SO THOSE ARE MY FOUR FEATURES I WOULD RECOMMEND YOU'VE EMAILED THOSE TO MR. KING.

I HAVE.

SO HE SHOULD HAVE THOSE ALREADY.

UM, YEAH, BUT I CAN ALWAYS FORWARD THEM AS NECESSARY.

ANYTHING ELSE? THANK YOU FOR YOUR INPUT.

THANK YOU SO MUCH.

WILL WE PUBLICIZE THIS MEETINGS? SO PLEASE MAKE SURE WE GET YOUR FEEDBACK.

OH YES, OF COURSE.

YOU KNOW, THE KIDS AT THE HIGH SCHOOL, AND I KNOW WE'RE TALKING ABOUT, YOU KNOW, WITH ADULTS AS WELL, BUT, YOU KNOW, WORD HAS, HAS WORKED ITS WAY THROUGH THE SCHOOL.

ANY OTHER QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS MR. SHELL? THANK YOU.

I, UH, I I'M RIGHT THERE IN LINE WITH YOU AS ONE OF THE YOUNGEST MEMBERS ON THIS DIOCESE.

UM, I ACTUALLY OWNED A, UH, DIAMOND BACK SILVER STREAK IN A COASTER BACK IN THE DAY THAT I TOOK A LOT OF PRIDE INTO, I, THANKFULLY I'VE NEVER BROKEN A BONE.

HOWEVER, I DON'T KNOW IF I HAVE THOSE SKILLS AS I'VE PUT ON SEVERAL MORE POUNDS THAN I WAS A KID.

HOWEVER, I'VE BEEN ON EBAY LOOKING AROUND FOR THOSE BIKES.

AND UNFORTUNATELY THEY'RE VERY EXPENSIVE BECAUSE NOW THEY'RE WHAT THEY'RE CALLED VINTAGE, WHICH MAKES ME START FILLING THE LITTLE OLD.

UM, BUT NO, I, I THINK, I THINK A LOT OF, UM, THE, UH, UH, OLD SOULS, UM, ARE GOING TO FIND A LOT OF USE AND, AND, AND EITHER TRACK OR EITHER PARK, UH, AVAILABILITY.

UM, I PERSONALLY DON'T KNOW IF I'M GOING TO GO OUT THERE AND TEST IT, EVEN THOUGH WE HAVE A WONDERFUL FIRE AND EMS, UM, UH, FIRST RESPONDERS HERE.

UM, I CAN ONLY ASSUME THAT WOULD MAKE FRONT PAGE OF DAYTON DAILY NEWS.

UH, BUT, UM, I THINK IT'D BE A GREAT TIME.

SO THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR INPUT AND THE INPUT OF OTHERS THAT'S BEEN RECEIVED, UM, UH, BY THE MAYOR AND, AND THE PARKS MANAGER, MYSELF AND MANY OTHERS HERE ON THE DIVE.

SO THANK YOU SO MUCH.

THANK YOU, RICHARD.

I PROMISE THAT IF YOU GET A BIKE AND A SKATEBOARD, I WILL BUY A CAMERA AND I WILL START MY OWN PHOTOGRAPHY COMPANY.

I HAVE TO SAY SKATEBOARD IS TOTALLY OUT.

UM, AS A YOUNG KID, I DID THE SKATEBOARD AND BICYCLE SIDE BY SIDE.

UM, AND THAT ENDED VERY, VERY HORRIBLY.

SO I, I STUCK TO, UH, TO MY DIAMOND BACK, UH, IT WAS A SILVER STREET TO, IT WAS ABSOLUTELY AMAZING.

I SHINED IT UP QUITE REGULARLY AND YES, SO VERY EXCITED FOR THEM.

I'M EXCITED ABOUT BOTH OF THESE AND WE'LL GET TO ITEM F BUT YEAH, I JUST,

[01:05:01]

AND I'M TELLING YOU, I GET QUESTIONED BY 10, 15 KIDS A DAY ABOUT THESE.

I MEAN, IT IS, UM, YOU KNOW, THEY'VE GOT FRIENDS AND CONNECTIONS.

I MEAN, CAUSE NOW, YOU KNOW, YOU DON'T HAVE TO HAVE A FRIEND FACE-TO-FACE, YOU HAVE SNAPCHAT FRIENDS, INSTAGRAM, FRIENDS, AND, AND THE WAY THAT THIS, THE, YOU KNOW, THE, THE, THESE PARKS HAVE, HAVE WORKED THEIR WAY THROUGH OUR STUDENTS AND OUR KIDS INTO, UH, OTHER COMMUNITIES AND THOSE KIDS.

I MEAN, I LOOK, I, I CAN'T IMAGINE THAT THIS IS NOT THESE THINGS AREN'T GONNA BE CROWDED.

I MEAN, CROWDED, CROWDED, UH, EVERY WEEKEND AND JUST THROUGHOUT THE WEEK.

AND I THINK THAT IT'S JUST A PHENOMENAL THING FOR OUR CITY AND FOR OUR PARKS OVERALL.

AND, UH, AND IT CANNOT BE A BAD THING.

HAVING MORE PEOPLE FROM OUTSIDE THE CITY COME IN AND, UM, USE OUR FACILITIES AND THEN EVENTUALLY INVEST THEIR DOLLARS IN SOME OF OUR RETAIL CENTERS AND OUR RESTAURANTS.

I MEAN, ALL THIS IS JUST GOING TO HELP OVERALL.

I THINK IT'S JUST A GREAT IDEA.

SO, UH, I APPRECIATE COUNCIL CONSIDERING ALL THESE ITEMS, THESE PARKS AND MOVING THESE FORWARD.

I THINK THIS IS A GREAT THING.

ANY OTHER QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS REGARDING ITEM E? YES.

IT'S BIGGER.

WHAT IS THE ROUGH ESTIMATE OF TIME FOR EACH ONE? SO FOR THE, UM, THE SKATE PARK BMX TRACK, UM, DEPENDS ON ALL THE FEATURES.

UM, LIKE I MENTIONED THAT WE'LL COME BACK IN THE, UH, THE FIRST MEETING IN JUNE WITH THOSE BIDS AND THEN ABOUT A THREE-MONTH PROCESS ABOUT 90 DAYS.

SO MONEY TO 90 DAYS, HOW LONG FOR DIAL UP THE SAME FOR A MAJORITY OF THE PARTS AND PIECES? YES, IT'D BE THE SAME.

UM, I DON'T HAVE A TIMEFRAME ON A COUPLE OF THE, THE, UM, THE BICYCLE PLAYGROUNDS, UH, THAT THAT'S A PIECE OF IT.

UM, WE DIDN'T HAVE A TIMEFRAME ON THAT ONE YET, BUT WE'LL JUST, BUT YES, SIMILAR, THANK YOU.

WE'VE GOT SOME CLARITY TO DO OVER DIAL TO, I THINK GRAHAM AND THERE'S LOTS OF THIS, SO KIND OF SOME PRE-WORK BEFORE.

THE MOUNTAIN BIKING THROUGH THE TRAILS AND CLEARING THAT, THAT WOULD BE ONE OF THE FIRST STEPS.

GREAT.

LAST CALL FOR QUESTIONS.

UP IS ITEM NUMBER 11 F MS. PAL, IF YOU WOULD READ PLEASE ITEM 11 F A RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER DOES ELICIT, ADVERTISE AND RECEIVE PROPOSALS FROM QUALIFIED FIRMS FOR THE CONSTRUCTION AND INSTALLATION OF MULTI-USE TRAILS, BICYCLE SKILLS PARK, BICYCLE PLAYGROUND, AND AN ASPHALT PUMP TRACK, AND DIAL PARK AT THE FIRST READING.

SO THEY ALSO, SORRY.

UM, IT JUST OCCURRED TO ME WHEN HE USED THE WORD CLEANING, BUT JIM CITY ROLLER DERBY HAS ACTUALLY BEEN INTERESTED IN ADOPTING A PARK AS WELL.

SO IF THERE ARE COMMUNITY VOLUNTEER OPPORTUNITIES, WE DO HAVE A PRETTY LARGE MEMBERSHIP AND WE'D BE HAPPY TO GIVE A HELPING HAND.

SO IT'S HARD TO PUT THAT OUT THERE.

THANK YOU, MR. CAMPBELL, LET'S TRY UP.

I WOULD LIKE TO JOIN YOU AND MR. CAMERON AND YOUR COMMENTS AND SAY THAT PARKS HAVE BEEN A VERY HOT BUTTON ITEM FOR ME FROM THE BEGINNING.

UM, I'VE ENJOYED SEEING ALL THE WORK WE'VE PUT INTO OUR PARKS, AND THIS IS JUST A COUPLE MORE STEPS TO IMPROVE THOSE PARKS AND, AND PROVIDE EVEN MORE FOR OUR COMMUNITY.

SO, ABSOLUTELY.

ANY OTHER QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS? I APPRECIATE BOTH OF THOSE COMMENTS BY THE WAY.

[01:10:02]

AND THAT WAS THE RECOMMENDATION AT THE WORK SESSION.

MR. CAMPBELL MOTION TO ADOPT A SECOND.

SECOND, MS. BAKER, WE HAVE A MOTION AND A SECOND.

ANY DISCUSSION ON THE WORKERS' COMPENSATION PROGRAM? MS. BELL, MR. SHAW.

AND THE MOTION CARRIES EIGHT ZERO.

NEXT UP IS

[ A Resolution Authorizing The City Manager To Execute A Memorandum Of Understanding With DDC Management, LLC. (first reading)]

ITEM 11, AGE, A RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO EXECUTE A MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING WITH DDC MANAGEMENT, LLC AT THE FIRST READING SCOTT.

UH, YES, THIS IS FOR THE MOU, UH, FOR THE DEVELOPER TO MOVE FORWARD WITH THEIR DESIGN AND BE ABLE TO START THE PROCESS.

UM, AS A REMINDER, THIS IS NOT APPROVING THE PROJECT.

UH, THERE'S A, THERE'S A LOT OF STEPS THAT GO INVOLVED IN THAT, UH, THROUGH PLANNING COMMISSION AND THEN THROUGH CITY COUNCIL AT THAT POINT IN TIME, THIS IS JUST A MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING TO START THAT PROCESS.

AND THEN WE'LL COME BACK WITH A DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT AND DESIGNS LATER.

THANKS, SCOTT.

THAT WAS THE RECOMMENDATION THAT THE WORK SESSION, MR. CAMPBELL LOSHA TO ADOPT, I THINK USER A SECOND.

MR. I'LL SUCK.

THERE WAS A MOTION AND A SECOND, ANY DISCUSSION REGARDING THE MOU, MR. SHAW, THANK YOU.

UH, SCOTT, UH, I, I CERTAINLY APPRECIATE YOU, UM, UH, CLARIFYING THAT THIS IS NOT AN APPROVAL OF THE PROJECT.

HOWEVER, JUST ACCEPTING, UH, THE, UH, THE MOU FOR THE PROCESS.

UM, AS A TIMELINE, I'VE HAD SEVERAL RESIDENTS HIT ME UP WITH SOME QUESTIONS, COMMENTS, OBJECTIONS, UM, AND I'VE EXPLAINED TO THEM AS YOU'VE DONE WITH US HERE TONIGHT.

UM, DO YOU HAVE A TIMELINE OF WHEN THIS WILL BE DONE OR DO YOU KNOW OF THE DEVELOPER'S TIMELINE WHEN WILL BE THE FIRST, UH, REZONING AND OR, UM, UH, DEVELOPMENT, UH, PLAN IN FRONT OF PLANNING COMMISSION? UH, I, I DON'T HAVE AN OFFICIAL TIMELINE FROM THEM.

THEY WANTED TO GET THIS STEP.

THEY HAVE A CONCEPTUAL DRAWING, WHICH WAS IN THE PACKET.

UM, BUT NOW THEY NEED TO DO A LITTLE BIT MORE DESIGN WORK TO BE ABLE TO COME UP WITH THAT BASIC DEVELOPMENT PLAN TO START THAT PROCESS.

SO, UM, IF I WOULD GUESS IN THE NEXT MONTH OR TWO, THEY WOULD WANT TO START THAT PROCESS THROUGH PLANNING RIGHT NOW, THE BALL'S IN THEIR COURT, EITHER WAY, SHAPE OR FORM, IF I'M, UH, IF I UNDERSTAND CORRECTLY, UH, THIS COUNCIL AND PLANNING COMMISSION STILL HAS A LOT TO, UM, UH, REVIEW AND, AND HEAR, UM, BEFORE THAT PROJECT STARTS BREAKING GROUND IN MY CORRECT.

I JUST WANTED TO SAY THANK YOU TO THE MIRROR.

UH, THERE WAS SOME CONFUSION ON SOCIAL MEDIA REGARDING, UM, WHETHER OR NOT THIS WAS A PROJECT THAT WAS BEING VOTED ON AND, UH, MAYOR OF OREGON JUST STEPPED IN REAL QUICK BEFORE IT GOT OUT OF HAND AND GAVE CLARIFICATION ABOUT IT BEING SOME PLAN, I'M ALL YOU.

SO I THINK IT'S IMPORTANT TO KEEP THAT OUT IN FRONT OF THE PUBLIC TO MAKE SURE THEY UNDERSTAND.

I THINK PUTTING THE DRAWING UP MADE EVERYONE THINK THIS IS THE PART WE'RE GOING TO SEE THERE.

AND THERE WILL COME A TIME FROM PLANNING COMMISSION.

THERE'LL BE PUBLIC HEARINGS.

I MEAN, THERE'LL BE PLENTY OF TIME BEFORE THIS PROCESS COMES TO A CLOSE AND ANY TYPE OF VOTE IS TAKEN OR, UH, CERTAINLY PEOPLE WILL HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO COME AND SPEAK AND, AND TALK ABOUT THE PROJECT AND JUST LIKE WE'VE DONE WITH, WITH THE LAST REZONING CASE, A PUBLIC HEARING THAT WE SAW.

SO CERTAINLY WE ARE A LONG WAY FROM A FINAL APPROVAL AND THERE'S PLENTY OF STEPS IN BETWEEN NOW AND THEN WHERE PEOPLE WILL BE ALLOWED TO BE, UH, TO BE HEARD.

AND, UM, THEY HAVE MENTIONED THAT THEIR GOAL WOULD BE MAYBE SECOND QUARTER 20, 22 OF STARTING CONSTRUCTION, IF EVERYTHING GOES RIGHT.

ON THE AGENDA IS ITEM 11.

THANK YOU, SCOTT.

UM, AND ATHLETIC FIELDS WITHIN OUR COMMUNITY.

UM, WE HAVE A LOT OF, A LOT MORE OUTSIDE ENTITIES THAT ARE LOOKING TO COME TO HEBREW HEIGHTS, UM, TO, UM, ENJOY FALL SPRING AND SUMMER RECREATIONAL SPORTS.

I KNOW THIS IS A TOPIC THAT OUR PARKS AND REC BOARD HAS DISCUSSED, AND I BELIEVE THAT HAS

[01:20:01]

BEEN HANDED OFF TO SEDATE ADMINISTRATION.

ANY OTHER REPORTS OR COMMENTS AS BAKER? I DO.

UM, YEAH, GOING BACK TO, UM, THE ISSUE OF THE, UH, THE PARKS MAINTENANCE FOR THE BALL FIELDS AND THE REC FIELDS.

UM, I LOOKED BACK FOUR YEARS AGO AND HOW ACTIVE OUR COMMUNITY WAS WITH SPORTS.

AND IT'S, THERE'S BEEN A, A MARKED DECREASE FROM WHAT I'VE SEEN IN ACTIVITIES HERE THAT I BELIEVE THIS LAST YEAR, THEY HAD DIFFICULTY GETTING LITTLE LEAGUE, UM, TEAMS TOGETHER.

UM, WE'VE LOST THE BASKETBALL TEAMS. UM, I'D LIKE TO KIND OF RE UH, DO A RESET HERE AND HAVE, UM, THE, UH, CHRIS FROM THE Y OR, AND MAYBE EVEN THE PARKS AND REC DO SOME PRELIMINARY WORK ON THAT AND SHOW WHERE THE TREND IS FROM OUR SPORTS ACTIVITIES FOR ME FROM FOUR YEARS AGO, UM, UH, TO SEE IF WE ARE IN FACT, LOSING OUR ATHLETES HERE TO OTHER COMMUNITIES, UH, HOW MUCH OUR FIELDS ARE BEING USED.

AND I'D ALSO LIKE TO SEE A LIST RICHARD OF ORGANIZATIONS THAT ARE INTERESTED IN COMING IN HERE SO THAT CHRISTEN AND, UH, PARKS AND REC CAN KNOW WHAT THE DEMAND IS FOR, FOR OUR FIELDS AND WHY THEY'RE NOT BEING USED.

WHAT ABSOLUTELY NEEDS TO BE TALKED ABOUT AND DISCUSSED.

SO MRS. BURNS, I WOULD SAY THE SAME THING.

SO MR. SHAW AND MR. OTTO HAVE, HAVE, UH, HAVE STATED THEIR, UH, UH, DESIRE TO SEE THAT ON A WORK SESSION.

SO IT REQUIRES, UM, THREE PEOPLE TO COMPEL ME TO PUT AN ITEM ON THE AGENDA.

I WOULD DO THAT, BUT I WOULD ASK THAT YOU SEND ME AN EMAIL ALSO THAT WAY I CAN HAVE ALL THE EMAILS TOGETHER.

SO I KNOW WHAT DISCUSSION, UH, IS LIKELY TO BE HAD, OR THAT WANTS TO BE HAD.

SO I CAN GET THAT INFORMATION TO SCOTT WHEN WE TALK ABOUT PREPARING THE NEXT WORK SESSION AGENDA.

SO, UM, FEEDBACK ON THAT THREE PEOPLE WILL CERTAINLY ALLOW TO DO SO.

SO MR. SHAW, MR. ADAM, MS. BURJ, IF YOU WOULD EMAIL ME THOSE, UH, DISCUSSION ITEMS, THEN WE'LL MAKE SURE WE HAVE WHAT'S IN THE PACKET,

[01:25:01]

ABSOLUTELY.

BUT I JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE WE HAVE SOME BACKGROUND INFORMATION, SOME CURRENT DATA BEFORE WE START ANY DISCUSSION IN A WORK SESSION.

PERFECT.

IF YOU'LL SEND ME THAT EMAIL, I'LL MAKE SURE THAT THAT INFORMATION SCOTT GETS, UM, THAT UPGRADE UPDATED INFORMATION AND DATA FROM, FROM THE Y.

AND, UH, ANYBODY ELSE THAT WE CAN CAN COMMUNICATE WITH THAT CAN GET US THE INFORMATION THAT WE NEED SO WE CAN HAVE GOOD DISCUSSION ABOUT IT.

SO THANK YOU SO MUCH.
