COUPLE ITEMS FOR COUNSEL AND THE COMMUNITY THIS EVENING.

UH, FIRST, THE, UH, NEW TRAFFIC SIGNAL AT OLD TROY AND HAYDEN, UH, NEXT TO HUNTINGTON BANK IS SCHEDULED FOR ACTIVATION ON APRIL 17TH.

IT'S CURRENTLY IN A FLASHING WARNING CONDITION.

NOW, UH, WE WILL, UH, UM, ACTIVATE THAT LIGHT, UH, AS AGAIN, I SAID ON APRIL 17TH.

UH, AUTHORIZATION LEGISLATION FOR THE ADDITIONAL LANE, THE EXTENSION OF THE ADDITIONAL LANE, UH, OUT TO I 70 IS EXPECTED, UH, TO CITY COUNCIL IN MAY.

AS WE LOOK TO COMPLETE, UH, THE REMAINING PORTION OF THAT PROJECT, I ALSO WANNA LET, UH, COUNCIL AND THE COMMUNITY KNOW THAT, UH, THE CITY IN PREMIER, EXCUSE ME, CLOSED ON THE NECESSARY LOT LINE ADJUSTMENT AT, UH, THE FORMER MARION MEADOW SITE TO FACILITATE THE ADVANCEMENT OF HERITAGE COMMONS PROJECT.

UH, WE ARE NOW CURRENTLY WORKING WITH, UH, HOMESTEAD DEVELOPMENT, UH, WHO IS, UH, PUTTING TOGETHER THE HOMESTEAD COMMONS PROJECT, UH, TO SCHEDULE A CLOSE FOR THEM.

WE ARE LOOKING TO PROVIDE COUNSEL A, UH, FULL PROJECT UPDATE ON THE HERITAGE COMMON, INCLUDING, UH, AN UPDATE ON THE CR DATE ON, UH, THE CR DATE FACILITY, UH, AND AN UPCOMING WORK SESSION.

PRELIMINARY DEVELOPMENT WORK ALSO CONTINUES ON THE NEW PUBLIC WORKS FACILITY, UH, FOLLOWING A SITE VISIT ON MARCH 25TH FROM, UH, COONEY ARCHITECTS TO ASSESS POTENTIAL BUILDING PLACEMENT LOCATIONS.

UH, THE DESIGN TEAM IS RETURNING NEXT WEEK, APRIL 11TH, TO SURVEY THOSE POTENTIAL LOCATIONS, UH, SO THAT THEY MAY BEGIN ENGINEERING A PREPARING ENGINEERING DESIGN FOR, UH, PAD AND CONSTRUCTION.

UH, A DRAFT OF THE FACILITIES MANAGEMENT PLAN HAS BEEN SUBMITTED, UH, BY CITY, EXCUSE ME, HAS BEEN SUBMITTED BY WILPERT ENGINEERING FOR STAFF'S REVIEW.

UH, THAT IS CURRENTLY BEING REVIEWED AND EVALUATED BY STAFF IN A PRESENTATION TO COUNCIL IS EXPECTED AT A FUTURE WORK SESSION.

UH, LAST, AS I HAD, UH, COMMENTED, UH, BACK ON MARCH 27TH, I DO WANNA LET FOLKS KNOW THAT, UH, CURRENTLY THE TAX OFFICE IS EXTENDING ITS HOURS FOR APPOINTMENTS, UH, TO ACCOMMODATE TAXPAYERS DURING, UH, THIS LAST PUSH OF THE TAX SEASON.

UH, ALL TIMES ARE BY APPOINTMENT ONLY, AND THERE IS NO CURBSIDE SERVICE OR WALK-IN SERVICE AT THIS POINT IN TIME.

UH, THE OFFICE IS OPEN FROM EIGHT UNTIL 6:00 PM ON FRIDAY, APRIL 14TH.

UH, WE'LL ALSO HAVE HOURS ON APRIL 17TH AND, UH, TUESDAY, APRIL 18TH FROM UH, EIGHT UNTIL SIX.

UH, THERE ARE LIMITED APPOINTMENTS BETWEEN, UH, 12:00 PM AND 2:00 PM ON SATURDAY, APRIL 15TH.

UH, THE OFFICE IS ALSO OPEN FROM EIGHT 30 IN THE MORNING UNTIL FOUR 30 IN THE AFTERNOON.

UH, AGAIN, UH, TIMES ARE BY APPOINTMENT, AND WE WOULD ASK THAT CITIZENS REACH OUT TO THE TAX DIVISION IF THEY NEED HELP IN ASSISTANCE PREPARING THEIR RETURNS.

UH, THAT'S ALL I HAVE FOR COUNSEL, UNLESS THERE'S ANYTHING COUNSEL HAS FOR ME.

ANYBODY, MR. WEBB? THANK YOU, MAYOR.

UH, BRIAN, WHEN THE LIGHT BECOMES ACTIVE ON OLD TROY PIKE, DO YOU KNOW IF THEY'RE GONNA PERMIT TRAFFIC, UM, UM, EASTBOUND, UH, INTO THE NEW DEVELOPMENT AT ALL? UH, THERE WILL BE DEVELOPMENT, UH, THERE WILL BE ACCESS INTO THE DEVELOPMENT.

UH, THE, UH, THE DEVELOPER THERE, UH, THE HOMESTEAD GROUP, UH, UH, IS LOOKING TO BEGIN PRE-LEASING, UM, THEIR, UH, THEIR UNITS.

SO THERE WILL BE ACCESS INTO THAT DEVELOPMENT AT THAT LOCATION.

UH, THE TIMING DEPENDS ON, UH, THE BASE COURSE, EXCUSE ME, THE FINAL COURSE OF ASPHALT WITHIN THE NEW DEVELOPMENT AND AN ABILITY TO GARNER ACCESS ACROSS WHAT IS NOW, UH, HUBER COURT THAT WILL BE CLOSED.

SO WE, WE DON'T WANT BOTH OF THOSE, UH, AVENUES OF TRANSPORT OPEN.

SO, UH, THAT IS THE PLAN IS TO CLOSE THAT OFF, UH, AT HUBER AVENUE AND PROVIDE, UH, ACCESS INTO THAT DEVELOPMENT AT THAT LOCATION.

AWESOME.

THANK YOU, SIR.

THANKS, MAN.

ANYBODY, UH, MRS. KITCHEN? BRIAN.

BRIAN, DID YOU FIND OUT THE ANSWER ABOUT THE HANDICAP ACCESSIBLE DOOR? OH, AT THE TAX OFFICE? YES.

THE, AT THE WATER OFFICE, OH, EXCUSE ME, AT THE WATER OFFICE, UH, THERE IS NO, UH, THERE IS NO, UH, ACCESSIBLE UNIT ON THERE.

THOSE TYPICALLY COST ABOUT $20,000, UH, TO INSTALL.

WE'LL NEED TO HAVE A CONVERSATION WITH

[00:05:01]

UH, BUT, UH, UH, THE WATER, UH, DIVISION DID, OR EXCUSE ME, THE WATER FOLKS DID WANT US TO EXPRESS THE MESSAGE THAT, UH, ANYBODY WHO'S HAVING ACCESS, THEY'RE HAPPY TO COME OUT AND, UH, EITHER TAKE PAYMENT IN SO FOLKS DON'T NEED TO COME IN THROUGH THOSE DOORS.

OR, UH, IF THEY NEED TO ACCESS THE BUILDING, THEY CAN CALL AND STAFF WILL COME OUT AND OPEN THOSE DOORS.

SO THAT IS, UH, THAT IS A SOLUTION THAT THEY, THEY'VE OFFERED IN THE SHORT TERM UNTIL WE CAN FIGURE OUT WHAT TO DO WITH THAT FACILITY.

OKAY.

THANK YOU.

ANYBODY ELSE? OKAY,

[ Parks And Recreation Board Update]

TONY? YEAH, WE HAVE, UH, VINCE KING, THE CHAIR OF THE PARKS AND RECREATION BOARD TO GIVE OUR, UH, ONGOING UPDATE.

YEP.

GOOD EVENING COUNSEL.

UH, AGAIN, VINCE KING, PARKS AND RECREATION BOARD CHAIR, UH, FOR 2023.

UM, FIRST AND FOREMOST, I WANT TO THANK YOU ALL FOR ALLOWING ME TO CONTINUE TO SERVE ON THE BOARD.

UM, HERE I WAS, UM, UNANIMOUSLY VOTED IN AGAIN.

UM, WE ALSO HAVE A NEW MEMBER ON THE BOARD AS WELL.

HE STARTED, I THINK, IN FEBRUARY, SO, UM, HE'S GONNA BE A GREAT ADDITION AS WELL.

UM, SO A BRIEF UPDATE FROM THE, FROM THE BOARD.

UM, SO I WAS NOT ABLE TO MAKE LAST, LAST MONTH'S MEETING, SO ANY QUESTION DEALING WITH THAT, THAT MEETING, I'M, I WAS NOT, I'M NOT AWARE OF WHAT WAS SAID THERE, UM, IN ITS ENTIRETY.

BUT WHAT I WILL SAY IS, THANK YOU AGAIN FOR COMMUNITY PARK.

UM, THAT NEW PLAYGROUND LOOKS GREAT, UM, ESPECIALLY WITH THE NEW, UM, CEMENT LEADING UP TO THE, UH, WHEELCHAIR SWING AS WELL.

SO THAT LOOKS GREAT, AND I CAN'T WAIT TO SEE, UM, SOME KIDS ON IT OR SOME ADULTS PLAYING ON THE SWING AS WELL.

UM, MS. KITCHEN, WE DO, WE DID HEAR YOU REFERENCING ADDING IN A SWING, SO THAT IS PART OF OUR DISCUSSIONS AS WELL.

SO, UM, WE'RE ALWAYS LOOKING AT WAYS TO IMPROVE THE PARTS.

SO, UM, SO WE'RE DEFINITELY GONNA LOOK AT DOING THAT AS WELL.

UH, OUR NEXT TOPIC WE HAVE IS EARTH DAY.

SO EVERY YEAR, UH, FOR THE LAST, WELL, THIS IS OUR SECOND TIME, I BELIEVE.

SO WHAT WE'RE TRYING TO DO IS TWO EVENTS FROM THE PARK AND RECREATION BOARD, WHICH WE WILL HOST.

SO ON APRIL 22ND, WE'RE HAVING AN EARTH DAY EVENT OUT AT THE COMMUNITY CENTER WHERE WE WILL HOST, WE'LL HAVE A COUPLE OF, UH, ACTIVITIES FOR THE KIDS.

UM, WE MAY EVEN HAVE SOME GIVEAWAYS.

UM, WE DID ORDER SOME WATER BOTTLES THIS YEAR, SO WE'LL BE GIVING THOSE OUT TO, UM, THOSE WHO COME OUT, UH, TO THE COMMUNITY CENTER.

AND WE'RE ALSO ENCOURAGING, UM, OUR ENTIRE COMMUNITY TO GO OUT INTO THE PARK AND HELP CLEAN IT UP, PICK UP TRASH, ANY, UH, DEBRIS OR ANYTHING LIKE THAT.

PUT IT IN THE TRASH CANS OR PUT IT, YOU KNOW, PUT IT IN A, IN A BAG THEMSELVES, AND PUT THE BAGS NEXT TO THE TRASH CANS NEAR THE PARK.

SO THAT'LL HELP OUR CITY STAFF, UM, AS WELL AS, UM, ANYONE ELSE WHO'S OUT THERE.

UM, IT'LL HELP MAKE OUR PARKS, KEEP OUR PARKS CLEAN, AND WILL ALSO, UM, GET US READY FOR THE SUMMER SEASON AS WELL.

LET'S SEE.

SO THE ONLY OTHER THING I'D LIKE TO TALK ABOUT IS THE PRIORITY LIST.

AGAIN, I BRING IT UP EVERY TIME, SO I DON'T WANT, WANT ANYONE TO FORGET IT, BUT I WON'T GO THROUGH THE ENTIRE THING.

UM, SO OUR NUMBER ONE PRIORITY IS THE PICKLEBALL COURTS.

I DON'T KNOW IF ANYONE HAS BEEN OUT TO SEE THE PICKLEBALL COURTS LATELY, BUT THEY ARE, YOU CAN'T REALLY, YOU CAN'T USE THEM AT ALL.

THERE ARE SOME HOLES.

THERE ARE, UM, THE CONCRETE'S CRACKED.

SO WE HIGHLY RECOMMEND THAT WE PUT SOME FOCUS ON IN 2023 ON RE ON REDOING THE PICKLEBALL COURTS COMPLETELY.

UH, AND THAT INCLUDES EXPANDING IT AND MAKING IT BIGGER AS WELL.

WE ALSO RECOMMEND THAT WHEN THAT PROJECT IS, WHEN WE'RE DOING THAT PROJECTS, ALSO CONSIDERED DOING THE BASKETBALL COURTS RIGHT NEXT TO IT.

THAT WAY YOU HAVE BOTH SETS THAT MATCH AND ARE UP TO PAR.

UM, ADDITIONALLY, WE WILL STILL FOCUS ON, UM, ADDING BA BASKETBALL COURTS NORTH OF 70 UP HERE BY THE Y UH, OR BY THE AQUATIC CENTER, I'M SORRY.

AND THEN WE HAVE ALSO, UH, WANT TO ADD A FITNESS PAD AND FITNESS EQUIPMENT, TOHO.

UM, WE THINK, YOU KNOW, IT'S GREAT TO HAVE ONE DOWN IN THOMAS AT THOMAS CLOUD PARK, BUT SOMETHING SIMILAR OR SOMETHING IN A COMPACT AREA UP, UM, IN, UP IN THE SHELL AREA WOULD BE, WILL ALSO BE BENEFICIAL AS WELL.

AND THEN, UM, LAST AND, BUT NOT LEAST, WE WANNA MAKE SURE THAT WE, UM, REMEMBER THAT WE NEED TO ADD A PLAYGROUND TO THE COMMUNITY CENTER.

UM, OUR RECOMMENDATIONS TO ADDED NEAR THE BASKETBALL COURTS.

UM, ONLY BECAUSE, UM, THAT WAY IF A BROTHER AND SISTER OR AN OLDER CHILD AND A YOUNGER CHILD ARE PLAYING ON THE BASKETBALL COURT AND THEY HAVE A YOUNGER ONE WHO'S PLAYING ON THE, UM, PLAYGROUND, THEY CAN ACTUALLY KEEP AN EYE ON EACH OTHER INSTEAD OF, YOU KNOW, BEING OUT OF SIGHT.

SO WE RECOMMEND ADDING ON THAT SIDE, UM, CUZ WE ALSO, UM, WE ALREADY HAVE THE MONKEY BARS AND EVERYTHING OVER BY THE, UH, SHELTER AS WELL.

[00:10:01]

ARE THERE ANY QUESTIONS FOR ME? ANYBODY HAVE QUESTIONS FOR MR. KING? MR. WEBB? UH, FIRST OF ALL, DENNIS, THANK YOU.

UM, THE PICKLEBALL COURTS, I A HUNDRED PERCENT AGREE WITH.

UH, MY WIFE AND I HAD THE PRIVILEGE OF GOING DOWN TO THE PICKLEBALL COURTS AND TALKING TO, UM, THE PICKLEBALL USERS THERE.

THEY POINTED OUT EXACTLY WHAT YOU JUST SAID, THE BIG GIGANTIC DIPS IN THERE.

SO WHEN YOU SAY ENLARGING THE PICKLEBALL COURTS, ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT SOLVING THE PROBLEM OF WHAT THEY DESCRIBED AS THE FENCE BEING TOO CLOSE TO THE SOMETHING LINE? SO THAT WOULD SOLVE ONE PROBLEM.

SO, UM, THERE'S ACTUALLY ENOUGH ROOM TO ADD TO MORE DISTANCE IN BETWEEN THE, LET'S SEE, 1, 2, 3, AND 1, 2, 3.

THE, THE COURTS IN THE MIDDLE.

SO IF YOU PUSH IT BACK MORE TOWARDS THE HOUSES WHERE THERE IS, UH, THERE'S A CONCRETE PAD OR ASPHALT, IF YOU TAKE IT ALL THE WAY BACK TO THAT, THAT'LL HELP MAKE IT BIGGER AS WELL.

UM, SO THAT'S MAINLY WHAT WE'RE THINKING ABOUT IS DOING THAT.

BUT WE ALSO WANNA MAKE SURE THAT WHEN THOSE DISCUSSIONS DO HAPPEN, THAT THE BOARD HAS SOME INPUT AS WELL, ESPECIALLY THOSE WHO, UM, PLAY PICKLEBALL AS WELL.

COOL.

UM, THE, UM, COMMUNITY CENTER PLAYGROUND, THERE'S A PLAYGROUND, UM, SET THERE CURRENTLY, UM, OUT FRONT IS THAT, UM, BASICALLY JUST JUNK OR I WILL NEVER SAY IT'S JUNK , BUT IT'S USABLE.

I'VE SEEN KIDS PLAY ON IT.

UM, YOU KNOW, WHENEVER WE GO OUT THERE, WE ALWAYS SEE KIDS PLAY ON IT, BUT WE HAD A PLAYGROUND IN THE BACK OF THE COMMUNITY CENTER BEFORE AND WE, AND IT WAS TAKEN OUT.

YEAH, JUST BA BASED ON, YOU KNOW, WHAT IT LOOKED LIKE.

SO WE'RE RECOMMENDING THAT WE ADD ANOTHER STRUCTURE OR STRUCTURES OVER BY THE BASKETBALL COURT.

THAT WAY EVERYTHING'S AN IN LINE OF SIGHT.

THAT MAKES SENSE.

THANK YOU, SIR.

THANK YOU, MAYOR PROBLEM.

ANYBODY ELSE? OKAY.

OH, I'M SORRY, MRS. KITCHEN, I DIDN'T SEE YOUR HAND.

I JUST WANNA THANK YOU FOR EVERYTHING YOU DO, VINCE, YOU'RE GREAT.

UM, GREAT ADVOCATE FOR THE PARKS AND REC BOARD, AND I REALLY APPRECIATE, THANK YOU.

[ Behavioral Health Services - Award Contract - Fire Division]

GOOD EVENING.

THANK YOU FOR ALLOWING ME TO PRESENT THIS.

UH, WE, UH, GOT APPROVAL FROM, UH, UH, THE COUNCIL AND ON THE 13TH, UH, WE POSTED, UH, THE RFP ON FEBRUARY 14TH.

WE CLOSED ON THE 27TH.

WE GOT A TOTAL OF FOUR BIDS, UM, VARIOUS PRICES.

UH, ONE WAS A COMPANY OUT OF FLORIDA THAT WAS, UH, PROBABLY THE HIGHEST, UH, THE HIGHEST BID.

UM, UH, OUR NEW WELLNESS MEDICAL DIRECTOR, UH, DR.

CHRIS MCINTOSH AND BATTALION CHIEF BLEY REVIEWED ALL THE QUOTES THEY INTERVIEWED.

UH, THEY ASKED QUESTIONS WE'RE, UH, ANYTHING THAT THE RFPS DID.

UH, REMEMBER THIS IS ALL PART OF AN ARPA GRANT, SO WE'LL BE REIMBURSED.

UH, THE RFP BEFORE IT CAME TO YOU HAD TO GO TO THE STATE FOR APPROVAL.

IF YOU ELECT TO, UH, UH, AWARD THE CONTRACT.

THE STATE HAS ALREADY AGREED TO ALLOW THAT TO GO THROUGH SCENE THERE.

THE GATEKEEPER OF THE ARPA MONEY, UH, AND THE, UH, LOWEST BEST BID, UH, PER DR.

MCINTOSH AND BATTALION CHIEF BLEY IS PINPOINT AT A COST OF $29,700.

UH, THAT'S OVER TWO YEARS.

WE HAD ACTUALLY BUDGETED 29,700 FOR TWO YEARS, AND PINPOINT'S BID CAME IN, UH, AS THE, THE LOWEST BEST BID, UH, AT 29 74, THE TWO YEAR CONTRACT.

AND THAT'S WHAT WE'RE RECOMMENDING, UH, FOR APPROVAL.

OKAY.

ANY QUESTION FOR CHIEF NICELEY? MR. WEBB? SORRY.

HI, CHIEF.

HELLO.

UM, ON YOUR, UM, LET ME FIND IT HERE.

IT'S YOUR, UM, BEHAVIORAL HEALTH BID SCORE SHEET, UM, EXPERIENCE

[00:15:01]

PINPOINT GOT A YES, PLUS THE OTHERS GOT A WHY AND A WHY.

CAN YOU TELL ME? I AM NOT, I AM NOT FOR CERTAIN ON WHAT THE THE PLUS WAS.

I KNOW THAT WE REACHED OUT TO THE VARIOUS FIRST RESPONDER GROUPS THAT THEY, THAT DR.

MCINTOSH AND CHIEF BLEY, UH, THE, THE REFERENCE LIST THAT THEY HAD, AND THEY HAVE EXCEPTIONAL EXPERIENCE.

BUT OTHER THAN THE, UH, THE, THE PLUS, I GUESS, UH, I'M TOTALLY GUESSING HERE, BUT BASED ON WHAT I HAD SAW IS, IS THAT THEY WENT OVER AND ABOVE WHAT WE ASKED FOR, UH, IN EXPLAINING LIKE THERE'S ONE AREA TALKING ABOUT THE CLASSES WHERE THEY WENT ABOVE AND BEYOND ACTUALLY PROVIDING THE CURRICULUM FOR EACH CLASS AND EVEN TENTATIVE SCHEDULES FOR THAT.

THEIR PRESENTATION, UH, LOOKED REALLY GOOD.

UH, THANK YOU FOR INCLUDING THAT.

THAT'S ALL, MA'AM.

THANK YOU, MR. UM, ANYBODY ELSE HAVE ANY COMMENTS? OKAY, WE'LL LOOK FORWARD TO MOVING THAT ON MONDAY.

NEXT IS ITEM THREE E,

[ Fire Division Staffing Update]

UH, THE PACKET, UH, SPREADSHEET.

YOU'LL NOTICE THE FOOTNOTE IS DATED MARCH 22ND.

AND THEN THE FOOTNOTE ON THE CHART, UH, IN FRONT OF YOU TONIGHT AT THE DIAS IS DATED APRIL FOUR.

UH, THE AREAS THAT ARE DIFFERENT FROM, UH, THE CHART INCLUDED IN THE PACKET, THE ONE DATED, UH, MARCH 22, UH, RELATES TO THE, UH, THREE CANDIDATES AT THE BOTTOM, THE MARCH, UH, 3 20 23 ELIGIBILITY LIST.

THANK YOU.

ALRIGHT.

THANK YOU.

MR. ANYBODY ELSE HAVE QUESTIONS? YES, MR. WEBB? I WILL JUST THROW IN ONE COMMENT, BRIAN, THE, UM, SPREADSHEETS ON THIS, UM, AND OTHER ITEMS YOU'VE BEEN DOING, I THINK ARE VERY HELPFUL TO US, UH, REALLY CLARIFIES EXACTLY WHERE WE'RE AT ON THE PROJECT.

THANK YOU, MR. ANYTHING ELSE? WE'LL LOOK FORWARD TO SEEING THAT ON MONDAY.

ITEM THREE F SUPPLE

[ Supplemental Appropriations]

THAT WON'T BE ON MONDAY.

OKAY.

SO IT'LL BE AN UPDATE NEXT.

I, I'LL TAKE MONDAY.

OH, THANK YOU.

WE, WE, WE CAN START 'EM ON MONDAY IF THEY, IF THEY CAN COMPLETE THEIR TASK.

I'M GOOD WITH THAT.

OKAY.

THANK YOU.

THANK YOU, MR. LANCASTER BEING SO AGREEABLE.

OKAY.

UM, ITEM THREE F, SUPPLEMENTAL APPROPRIATIONS.

UH, GOOD EVENING, UH, VICE MAYOR AND COUNCIL MEMBERS.

UM, UH, I KNOW YOU ALREADY HAD FIRST READING ON THIS LAST MONDAY, UM, BUT I DO HAVE SOME ADDITIONS HERE.

UM, UM, THAT I, UH, PUT IN THE PACKET.

UM, WE ARE STILL, UM, HAVING OUR STRUGGLES WITH, UM, FILLING POSITIONS AT THE TAX OFFICE.

SO I'M ASKING FOR, UH, $19,350.

UH, ACTUALLY THIS IS NOT A NET INCREASE TO THE BUDGET.

IT'S, UM, MOVING MONEY FROM THE PERSONNEL SECTION OF THE TAX BUDGET, UM, TO THE, UM, TEMPORARY STAFFING SERVICES LINE ITEM IN THE TAX BUDGET, UH, 19,003 50.

SO THAT'S JUST A WASH BECAUSE THOSE POSITIONS WERE BUDGETED TO BE FILLED FOR THE ENTIRE YEAR.

OBVIOUSLY, UH, THEY HAVE NOT, WE'VE BEEN MAKING GOOD USE OF TEMPORARY SERVICES AND, UM, AND SO I'M ASKING THAT, UH, JUST THE MONEY BE FLOW FROM THE PERSONNEL DOWN TO THE, UH, OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE.

AND, UH, WHILE I'M ON THIS SUBJECT, I WANTED TO, UM, JUST, UH, TELL COUNSEL ABOUT, UH, SOME INTERESTING, UH, TWO INSTANCES DOWN AT THE TAX OFFICE.

UH, UH, ONE OF OUR TEMPORARIES THAT, UH, JUST CAME ON BOARD, UH, RECENTLY WITHIN THE LAST, UH, THREE WEEKS, UH, IS FLUENT IN SPANISH.

AND WE'VE HAD TWO INSTANCES WHERE WE'VE HAD A, UH, RESIDENT COME IN, COULD ONLY SPEAK SPANISH, AND, UM, UP TO NOW WE WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN ABLE TO, UH, BE HELPFUL TO THAT PERSON.

AND, UH, BECAUSE OF THE NEW TEMPORARY, UH, PERSON THAT'S THERE, SHE'S BEEN ABLE TO HELP OUT AND, AND, UH, CALM THE PERSONS, UH, DOWN THAT COME IN.

AND, UH, SO IT'S BEEN VERY, UH, VERY GOOD EXPERIENCE.

SO I HOPE THE RESIDENTS, UH, APPRECIATE THAT.

AND, UM, THEN THE OTHER, UM, ITEM THAT I'M ASKING FOR IS, UM, A $100,000 REDUCTION IN THE GENERAL FUND THAT WAS SET IN THE BUDGET FOR WEBSITE REDEVELOPMENT AND MOVE THAT TO THE, UM, UH, ACTUALLY REDUCE THE GENERAL FUND AND THEN INCREASE THE PARKS AND REC FUND TO, UH,

[00:20:01]

I THINK THAT WAS A, A REQUEST OF COUNCIL THAT, UH, WAS, UH, GIVEN TO ME BY BRIAN.

AND SO WE ARE, UM, UH, INCLUDING THAT AND AS TONY, UH, RECOMMENDED IN MY WRITEUP HERE FOR THE SUPPLEMENTAL.

UM, SO WHAT I'M ASKING FOR MONDAY NIGHT IS THAT YOU AMEND THE LEGISLATION THAT WAS PRIOR SET TO SECOND READING, UH, FOR FINAL READING TO INCLUDE THESE ADDITIONS THAT I JUST MENTIONED TO YOU.

IS THAT, DID I SAY THAT CORRECTLY, BRIAN? CORRECT.

UH, ANTHONY, TONY.

THANK YOU MR. BELL.

ANYBODY HAVE QUESTIONS FOR MR. BELL? ANYBODY ON COUNCIL HAVE QUESTIONS FOR MR. BELL? OKAY.

IT LOOKS LIKE WE'LL SEE YOU ON MONDAY.

ALL RIGHT.

THANK YOU.

THANK YOU MR. BELL.

NEXT ITEM, 3G DIAL

[ Dial Park - Concept Planning]

YES.

UH, THANK YOU, MS. BAKER.

UH, THIS PARTICULAR ITEM, IF YOU'LL RECALL, WAS, UM, BOUND OVER FROM THE MEETING OF THE 27TH.

UH, THERE WAS A REQUEST TO INCORPORATE, UH, WORK WITH RESPECT TO BASKETBALL COURTS.

WE HAD INCLUDED, UM, IN THE INITIAL LEGISLATION, UH, $315,000, UH, FOR IMPROVEMENTS AT THAT FACILITY, AND THAT WAS INCLUDED IN THE BUDGET.

AND THEN AS PART OF ANOTHER PROJECT, UH, ELSEWHERE IN THE BUDGET, WE HAD THE BASKETBALL COURTS.

AND IT WAS THE REQUEST OF COUNCIL TO BLEND THOSE TWO TOGETHER INTO THIS PARTICULAR DOCUMENT.

UH, AND SO, UH, IT'S MY UNDERSTANDING THAT THIS, UH, THIS PIECE OF LEGISLATION THAT WE'VE NOW PREPARED FOR COUNCIL'S CONSIDERATION, UH, REFLECTS THE ORIGINAL INTENT OF THE REQUEST, AND WE WOULD ASK THAT COUNSEL, UH, MOVE THIS ITEM ON, UH, TO MONDAY EVENING FOR ACTION.

ANY QUESTIONS FOR MR. CHACO? YES, MR. ATO? YEAH, BRIAN, UM, QUICK QUESTION.

UH, I KNOW THAT THERE'S WERE SOME BACK AND FORTH BETWEEN SOME MEMBERS OF COUNSEL CONCERNING THE SUBJECT AND, UH, SOME PROPOSALS MADE AS TO CHANGING SOME OF THE LEGISLATION, WHICH IT, IT DEFINITELY HAS AND IT'S MUCH BETTER.

UM, WHY WITHIN THE AMENDED RESOLUTION, UM, THE TIMING, WHAT, WHAT DETERMINED THE TIMING ON THIS? UH, IN THIS PARTICULAR INSTANCE, IT WAS A PLACEHOLDER THAT WE PUT IN, UH, TO MAKE SURE THAT WE COULD BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE TO COUNSEL TO DELIVER, UH, THIS PARTICULAR ITEM, UH, THE 90 DAYS WAS, UH, MY NUMBER BASED ON THE AMOUNT OF WORK THAT WE ARE CURRENTLY, UH, TASKED TO COMPLETE UNDER TIMEFRAMES, UM, AND BY THE D UH, NOT THE DIRECTION OF COUNSEL AND OTHERS.

SO THAT WAS WHY WE HAD PUT IN THE 90 DAY TIMEFRAME, UH, TO MAKE SURE THAT WE WOULD HAVE SUFFICIENT OPPORTUNITY TO MEET, UH, OUR COMMITMENTS THAT WE HAVE NOW, AS WELL AS BE ABLE TO MEET THIS COMMITMENT, UH, WITHOUT, UH, YOU KNOW, UM, BASED ON THE WORKLOAD.

WITH THAT BEING SAID, CAN YOU GIMME A GENERAL ESTIMATION OF WHEN WE MAY SEE CONSTRUCTION BEGIN, OR, OR, OR, UH, COMPLETION? SO I, ANY IDEAS BASED ON, UH, HISTORY WITH, UH, PARKS? WELL, I, I, I WOULDN'T BE ABLE TO, I MEAN, I, I WOULDN'T BE ABLE TO VENTURE THAT, YOU KNOW, ONCE COUNCIL HAS AN OPPORTUNITY TO REVIEW AND APPROVE THE CONCEPT, THEN WE WOULD GO OUT AND, UH, YOU KNOW, WE'D HAVE TO ACQUIRE THE NECESSARY, UM, YOU KNOW, WE'D HAVE TO ACQUIRE THE NECESSARY BIDS AND ACTUALLY, UM, SO WE'D HAVE TO BID IT.

UH, AND THEN IN SOME INSTANCES, I BELIEVE THE PLAYGROUND EQUIPMENT, UH, MIGHT BE SOLE SOURCE.

I'D HAVE TO LOOK, UM, AT THE LEGISLATION, BUT THERE'S OBVIOUSLY GONNA BE LEAD TIMES AND THOSE KINDS OF THINGS.

SO, UH, WHERE WE'RE CAPABLE, WE'LL DO WHAT WORK WE CAN IN ADVANCE.

BUT, UH, AT THIS POINT IN TIME, I DON'T FEEL IT WOULD BE APPROPRIATE TO PROVIDE YOU AN ESTIMATE BECAUSE I JUST DON'T KNOW WITH THE NUMBERING NUMBER OF COMPONENTS, UH, WHEN THE, WHEN A GOOD DATE WOULD BE.

OKAY.

THANK YOU.

ANY OTHER QUESTIONS, MR. WEBB? THANK YOU, MAYOR BRIAN.

UM, THE, UH, BULLET THREE, UH, THE CONCEPTUAL SITE PLAN WILL BE PRESENTED TO COUNSEL, NOT THE PARKS AND RECREATION BOARD FOR TIMING PURPOSES ONLY.

UM, IS THERE ANY CONSIDERATION GIVEN TO, UM, INCLUSION OF THE PARKS AND RECREATION BOARD, UM, AS PART OF THE DISCUSSION? I KNOW THE MEETING SCHEDULES WOULD PROBABLY MESS UP YOUR TIMING, RIGHT.

BUT, UH, WITH MR. KING IN ATTENDANCE HERE TONIGHT, IS THERE ANY WAY WE CAN AT LEAST SOLICIT, UM, INPUT FROM THEM? I'M, I'M HAPPY TO RESPOND IN WHATEVER DIRECTION COUNCIL MIGHT PROVIDE, UM, IF WE HAVE AMPLE OPPORTUNITY TO PRESENT THEM WITH THAT INFORMATION WITH THE, THE PARKS COMMISSION, WITH THAT INFORMATION IN ADVANCE OF OUR COMMITMENT TO COUNCIL, OBVIOUSLY HAPPY TO DO SO.

UM, NO INTENT TO, UM, NOT SOLICIT THEIR INPUT, BUT MORE SO TO MEET THE, THE TIMING AND EXPECTATIONS OF COUNCIL IS WHY THIS LEGISLATION WAS DRAFTED THE WAY THAT IT WAS AGREED.

WE'VE BEEN TALKING ABOUT THIS FOR A LONG TIME, SO I WOULD NOT LIKE TO IMPEDE THE PROCESS AT ALL, BUT IF POSSIBLE, UH, INPUT FROM, UH, MR. KING AND PARKS AND REC WOULD BE VALUABLE.

I THINK WE WILL

[00:25:01]

AND IF IT, UM, AND IF THE TIMING ENABLES THEM TO BE THERE, UH, BE HERE TO COMMENT TO COUNSEL.

HOPEFULLY THEY'LL TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THAT OPPORTUNITY.

THANK YOU.

SURE.

ANY OTHER QUESTIONS, MR. TEKI? MR. SHAW? THANK YOU.

UM, I, I WOULD AGREE WITH, UH, UH, THE INTERIM CITY MANAGER'S COMMENTS, UH, RELATED TO THE PARKS AND REC BOARD, UH, WITH MR. KING IN ATTENDANCE TONIGHT.

I, I THINK HE WOULD, UH, DEFINITELY AGREE, UH, THIS DIAL PARK MATTER HAS BEEN TALKED ABOUT, UM, AND, AND APPROVED BY THIS BOARD AND COMMISSION, UH, ON SEVERAL OPPORTUNITIES.

UM, IF MEMORY SERVES CORRECT, UH, I BELIEVE THE PARKS AND RECREATION BOARD HAS SEEN, UM, TO DATE AT LEAST THREE CONCEPTUAL DRILLINGS, IF NOT MORE, OF DIAL PARK.

UM, AND THAT INCLUDES, UH, YOU KNOW, THE BIKE TRAILS THAT ALSO INCLUDED THE PARK CONCEPT, AND WE TALKED ABOUT PARKING.

SO WE HAD ALL KINDS OF DIFFERENT CONCEPTS THERE.

UM, I, I THINK WHAT THE CITY MANAGER IS GOING AFTER IN, IN A TIMELY MANNER TO, UM, TO TAKE CARE OF THE NEEDS, UM, THAT HAS BEEN REQUESTED THERE, I, I THINK IS APPROPRIATE.

UM, NOT TO PUT WORDS IN, IN BRIAN'S MOUTH, BUT HE, HE DID ASK FOR, FOR 90 DAYS IN THE LEGISLATION.

IS IT MY OPINION THAT HE'S, UH, NOT GOING TO, UH, HAVE ANYTHING BACK TO US UNTIL, UH, JULY 10TH ON THE EXACT DATE? NO.

UH, I THINK THAT JUST GIVES HIM SOME BUFFER TIME WITH SOME THINGS THAT HE'S GOT GOING ON.

UH, OTHER PROJECTS WITHIN THE COMMUNITY THAT I THINK THIS COUNCIL IS COGNIZANT OF, AND, AND UNDERSTAND WHERE THAT IS ON THE PRIORITY LIST.

UH, I'M SURE IF BRIAN HAS THAT AVAILABLE IN 30 OR 45 DAYS, HE'LL HAVE IT IN FRONT OF HIS COUNCIL IN 30 OR 45 DAYS.

UM, BUT IT GIVES HIM THE, THE AVAIL TO DO THAT.

I ALSO SEE NO PROBLEM, UM, IF THAT CONCEPT IS READY IN TIME TO, UM, GET AHOLD OF MR. KING AND, AND THE, AND THE BOARD, DEPENDING ON THE SCHEDULE TO ALLOW THEM TO REVIEW THAT OR AT LEAST SOLICIT INPUT, UH, FROM THEM, UH, IF THERE IS A RECESS DURING THAT MEETING TIME FOR THEM MM-HMM.

.

UM, BUT I, I THINK ALL PARTIES SHOULD BE INVOLVED, AND I THINK THERE'S A LOT OF CONCEPTS THERE THAT CAN BE DONE, UH, SOLE SOURCE AND THINGS THAT, YOU KNOW, WE CAN, UM, BID OUT.

UM, I AM HAPPY TO SAY THAT, YOU KNOW, DIAL PARK IS SOMETHING THAT'S BEEN IN THE WORKS FOR THIS COUNCIL FOR AT LEAST SEVEN TO EIGHT YEARS, UM, WHICH IS QUITE A LONG TIME.

AND IT WASN'T UNTIL JUST LAST YEAR THAT WE FINALLY CODIFIED DIAL PARK AS AN OFFICIAL PARK MM-HMM.

.

UM, AND, UH, I, I THINK THERE DEFINITELY NEEDS TO, UH, BE SOME MOVEMENT ON THIS, UH, BUT ALSO BEING COGNIZANT OF STAFF'S TIME, UM, AND INPUT, UH, FROM THE PARKS AND REC BOARD.

SO HOPEFULLY MR. WEBB, THAT, UH, PROVIDED SOME, SOME ADDITIONAL INFORMATION FOR YOU ON THAT.

UM, BUT I THINK THIS IS A GOOD PROJECT TO, UH, UH, TO MOVE FORWARD AND, AND HEAR, UH, EVERYBODY'S OPINION ON.

THANK YOU.

THANKS.

THANK YOU FIRST MAYOR.

ANYBODY ELSE I JUST ADDRESS? UH, SURE.

COUNCILMAN SHAW? I, I AGREE WITH YOU.

UH, 100%.

I, UM, WOULD LIKE TO SEE PERHAPS AT, BECAUSE WE ARE TALKING ABOUT THIS SPECIFIC CONCEPTUAL SITE PLAN FOR THE WORK THAT'S GONNA BE DONE, THAT, UH, MAYBE WE COULD AGREE THAT PARKS AND REC SHOULD BE COPIED IN ON THAT AS WE ARE GIVEN THE INFORMATION SO THAT THEY CAN DIGEST IT AS WELL.

SURE.

I HAVE, AGAIN, I HAVE NO PROBLEM WITH THAT.

UH, UM, UH, VICE MAYOR IF, UH, THAT'S ACTION THAT, UH, THAT WANTS TO BE PUT DOWN, UM, FOR DIRECTION FOR THE CLERK, UM, YOU KNOW, I, I'M OPEN TO ALL OPINIONS FROM THE PARKS AND REC BOARD.

I KNOW, UM, THEY SUPPLIED MANY DURING SEVERAL OF THEIR REVIEWS OF THOSE CONCEPTS THAT WE CAN DEFINITELY GO BACK ON.

UH, I KNOW THERE'S BEEN A FEW CHANGES ON THAT BOARD, BUT, UH, UM, IT IS IN MY OPINION THAT THE, UM, AT LEAST THE APPROVAL PROCESS WILL, WILL STILL STAND FROM THAT BOARD AND, AND THEIR RECENT VOTES ON THAT.

UM, IT'S JUST ABOUT, YOU KNOW, WHAT WE DECIDE TO PUT IN THERE AND HOW QUICKLY WE DECIDE TO MOVE.

YOU BET.

YES.

THANK YOU, VICE MAYOR.

BRIAN, I JUST HAVE ONE QUESTION ABOUT THE DOW PARK.

WILL IT INCLUDE AN ADA SWING OR ADA FACILITIES? LIKE WE HAVE A EICHENBERGER AND THE OTHER, THE PLACE STRUCTURE THAT WE TYPICALLY SPEC DOES NOT INCLUDE, UM, DOES NOT INCLUDE THE FULLY ACCESSIBLE SWING.

THAT DOESN'T MEAN THAT WE CAN'T, UM, ADD THAT TO THE PARK OR TO THE FACILITY, BUT BASED ON THE BUDGET THAT WE HAD PREPARED, UH, FOR THIS YEAR, THAT STRUCTURE WOULD NOT INCLUDE THE FULLY ACCESSIBLE, UH, THE FULLY ACCESSIBLE SWING.

OKAY.

THANK YOU FOR ANSWERING MY QUESTION.

SURE.

OKAY.

ANYBODY ELSE HAVE A COMMENT? OKAY.

WE'LL SEE THAT ON AGENDA MONDAY FOR A MEETING.

NEXT, ITEM THREE I COMMUNITY

[ Community Center Improvements - Award Contract]

UH, THANK YOU, MS. BAKER.

UH, THIS PARTICULAR ITEM IS A MATTER THAT HAD PREVIOUSLY BEEN DISCUSSED BY CITY COUNCIL, UH, LATE IN 2022, UH, AND WAS INCLUDED WITHIN THE BUDGET, UH, FOR ACTION.

UH, THE CITY WAS CAUGHT, UH, IN THE INFLATIONARY CRUNCH, MUCH LIKE, UH, ALL OTHER ENTITIES LOOKING TO CONSTRUCT IMPROVEMENTS.

UH, AND AS A RESULT, UH, THIS PARTICULAR ITEM DID INCLUDE A MATTER IN THE SUPPLEMENTAL APPROPRIATION, WHICH WAS BRIEFED BY MR. BELL.

UH, WE WOULD ASK THAT COUNSEL, APPROVE THIS PARTICULAR, UH, ACTION ITEM ON MONDAY.

AND ONCE APPROVED, UH, WE'LL BEGIN WORKING WITH BILL BREE, UH, TO PUT TOGETHER A, UH, MORE DETAILED CONCEPT DESIGN OF THE WORK TO BE DONE.

UH, AND ONCE THAT IS COMPLETE, UH, WE WILL BEGIN TALKING ABOUT, UH, SCHEDULING THAT WORK TO BEGIN.

KEEP IN MIND THAT, UH, AT THE REQUEST OF COUNCIL IN 2022, UH, WE'VE TAKEN AN EFFORT TO BEGIN PROGRAMMING THE COMMUNITY CENTER WITH ACTIVITIES THROUGH 2023.

SO WE'LL HAVE TO MAKE SOME ADJUSTMENTS TO OUR PLAN, WHICH IS WHY AT THIS POINT IN TIME WE'RE NOT PREPARED TO TALK ABOUT SCHEDULE.

UH, BUT AS WE GET CLOSER, UH, WE WILL BE IN A POSITION TO DO THAT.

SO, AGAIN, WE WOULD ASK THAT COUNCIL, MOVE THIS ITEM TO ACTION ON MONDAY, APRIL 10TH.

OKAY.

ANY QUESTIONS, COUNSEL? OKAY.

WE'LL SEE THIS ON MONDAY.

UM, NICK'S ITEM THREE J, HORIZON LINE

[ Horizon Line Development Agreement - Assignment/First Amendment]

ASSIGNMENT OF FIRST, UH, THANK YOU, MS. BAKER.

THIS PARTICULAR ITEM WAS BEFORE COUNSEL ON MARCH 27TH, AND AT MY REQUEST, UH, IT WAS POSTPONED INDEFINITELY.

AND AT THAT TIME, THE REASON FOR MY REQUEST WAS BASED ON THE FACT, UH, THAT THE AMENDMENT IN QUESTION, UH, WAS A SUBSTANTIAL EXTENSION, UH, NOT TO EXECUTE ANY PORTION OF THE AGREEMENT, UH, WITH ANY, UH, DEFINITIVE OUTCOME, UH, BUT TO CONTINUE, UH, WE'LL CALL IT RECEIVING THE APPROPRIATE APPROVALS OR, UH, CONDITIONS OF APPROVAL, UH, TO GET TO CLOSE, UH, HAVING PULLED THIS ITEM FROM THE AGENDA, OR HAVING HAD THIS ITEM POSTPONED INDEFINITELY.

FOLLOW UP CONVERSATIONS WITH THE DEVELOPER, UH, THE DEVELOPER IS COMMITTED TO THE PROJECT AND WOULD LIKE INSTEAD, UH, OF AN AMENDMENT, UH, OF, UH, 120 PLUS DAYS.

UH, THEY ARE ASKING FOR AN AMENDMENT OF 45 DAYS SO THAT THEY CAN SCHEDULE CLOSE.

UH, THEY ARE CONTINUING TO INCUR COSTS AND SEEK ALL THE NECESSARY APPROVALS, UH, TO ADVANCE THEIR PROJECT.

SO THEY WILL BE, UH, COMING BEFORE PLANNING COMMISSION ON APRIL 11TH.

UH, WITH RESPECT TO BASIC DEVELOPMENT PLAN AND REZONING, THEY'VE ASKED US TO SCHEDULE THE HEARING FOR THEM TO COME BEFORE COUNSEL SO THAT THEY CAN DEMONSTRATE TO THIS BODY, UH, THAT THEY ARE SERIOUS ABOUT THIS PROJECT AND THAT THEY ARE SERIOUS IN HONORING THIS AGREEMENT.

UH, AND IN PARTICULAR, THE AGREEMENT IN QUESTION IS THE, UM, MOST RECENT AGREEMENT THAT WE HAD ENTERED INTO THE ONE THAT WAS, UH, APPROVED BY CITY COUNCIL BACK ON, I BELIEVE IT WAS NOVEMBER 14TH, UH, THAT WE ENTERED INTO ON DECEMBER 22ND.

SO THIS IS A TAKEDOWN OF, UH, 17.6 ACRES AND ONLY 17.6 ACRES, UH, TO FACILITATE THE, UH, RESIDENTIAL COMPONENT.

UH, THE PURPOSE FOR THAT IS TO HELP DRIVE INTEREST IN THE COMMERCIAL COMPONENTS OF THE SITE, JUST AS ORIGINALLY ENVISIONED, UH, AND THE OPTION PROVISIONS REMAIN ON ALL REMAINING ACREAGE OF THE PROPERTY, WE WOULD ASK THAT COUNCIL, MOVE THIS ITEM FORWARD FOR ACTION ON MONDAY.

OKAY.

ANY QUESTIONS? ANY QUESTIONS? OKAY, THAT LOOKS LIKE IT.

MOVING FORWARD TO MONDAY, UM, NICK'S ITEM THREE, K
