OH, I WANNA BE A COMMISSIONER, MAYBE, UH, REMARKS BY THE CHAIRPERSON.
I HAVE MISSED YOU ALL FOR THE LAST TWO MONTHS.
THANK YOU TO THE FABULOUS CHERYL BRANDENBURG, THE, UH, VICE CHAIR.
THIS IS SOMETHING THAT IS SO NICE THAT WE NOW HAVE A LARGE ENOUGH COMMISSION THAT A PERSON CAN MISS AND IT DOESN'T RUIN OUR CADENCE.
AND THAT WE HAVE, YOU KNOW, TWO DEEP LEADERSHIP.
CONSIDER THAT WHEN WE LOOK FORWARD INTO OUR CALENDAR YEAR.
I KNOW IT'S APRIL, BUT YOU'RE GONNA FIND LATER ON THAT WE'RE GONNA START TALKING ABOUT THIS YEAR LATER AND NEXT YEAR.
AND KNOW THAT IN JANUARY WE WILL BE NOMINATING A NEW, UH, CHAIRPERSON AND POSSIBLY EVEN A NEW VICE CHAIR, UH, DEPENDING ON WHAT IS NEEDED.
I ALSO WANNA SAY THANK YOU TO THE FABULOUS MOLLY.
SHE IS FILLED IN FOR SARAH WHO IS ON MATERNITY LEAVE.
AND, UM, ESPECIALLY WITH MY TWO MAJOR, YOU KNOW, PERSONAL CRISES THAT, UH, KEPT ME FROM BEING SUPER ON TOP OF EVERYTHING FOR TWO MONTHS ALREADY FILLING IN FOR SARAH AND NOW FILLING IN FOR A SECOND.
AND ON A PERSONAL NOTE, I HAVE INTERACTED WITH YOU AS A CITIZEN AND AS A CUSTOMER OF THE PARKS AND REC DEPARTMENT.
AND YOU ARE JUST PHENOMENAL AND WE'RE VERY LUCKY TO HAVE YOU.
WE HOPE YOUR, UH, NEW ADDITION TO THE FAMILY IS, UH, HAPPY AND HEALTHY AND YOUR WHOLE FAMILY IS BLESSED.
ALRIGHT, UH, THE LAST THING, I JUST WANT TO SAY THIS AT THE BEGINNING.
I KNOW YOU ALL SAW THE AGENDA FOR THE DAY, BUT THINK AS WE'RE GOING THROUGH HERE, YOU NOTICE THAT THE SHARK TANK ACTIVITY IS A DISCUSSION ITEM.
AND SO WE'RE GONNA TALK, YOU KNOW, ART SHOW.
THERE WAS ALREADY SOME, UH, NOTES BEING TAKEN FOR 2027 ART SHOW.
AND JUST KEEP THAT IN THE BACK OF YOUR MIND, WHETHER OR NOT WE WANT TO DO THE SHARK TANK ACTIVITY THE WAY WE DID IT THIS YEAR.
JOE, YOU WEREN'T THERE, SO WE'LL EXPLAIN THAT TO YOU.
UM, THIS IS THE TIME WE INVITE CITIZEN COMMENTS.
SEEING NONE, WE WILL MOVE TO OLD BUSINESS.
ALRIGHT, THE ART SHOW, OUR FABULOUS ART SHOW.
CHAMPION, WHAT WOULD YOU LIKE TO SHARE WITH US? WELL, UM, MOLLY'S DONE A LOT OF WORK.
WE'VE, UH, TALKED A LOT TOGETHER.
WE CURRENTLY HAVE 30 ADULT ENTRIES.
AND WAIT A MINUTE, WAIT A MINUTE.
[00:05:01]
ON.DON'T JUST DROP THAT AND MOVE ON.
WELL, IT'S HOW MANY PEOPLE? AND THEY HAVE MULTIPLE ENTRIES.
FOUR 14 ADULTS, BUT IT'S TOTAL OF 30 ENTRIES WITH THOSE 14 PEOPLE.
14 ADULTS IS STILL MORE THAN ALL THE AGES COMBINED LAST YEAR.
I'M LOOKING AT MASON
WE NEED MORE CHILDREN ENTERED FOR THEIR ART.
UM, WHAT ELSE DO WE NEED TO TALK ABOUT? MOLLY, DID YOU KNOW ABOUT VOLUNTEERS? YES.
WE NEED TO CONFIRM VOLUNTEERS.
I KNOW I DID THIS BY EMAIL, BUT FOR THE SAKE OF NOTES I CAN CONFIRM.
LISA HANSON, THE CEO OF CULTURE WORKS WILL BE ONE OF OUR GUEST JUDGES THAT DAY.
CULTURE WORKS IS A UNITED ARTS FUND HERE IN DAYTON, OHIO.
THEY ARE, UH, THE PREMIER ARTS FUNDING ORGANIZATION.
AND SO AS HER PART OF HER COMMUNITY OUTREACH, SHE WAS THRILLED TO BE ASKED.
DO WE WANNA GIVE HER ANY KIND OF, UM, I DON'T KNOW, GIFT FOR BEING OUR JUDGE? DO WE HAVE A BUDGET FOR THAT KIND OF THING? OH, DON'T WORRY ABOUT IT.
SHE'S DOING IT AS A FAVOR TO ME.
I CAN'T THINK OF ANYTHING ELSE.
WE'VE GOT THE SUPPLIES OF THE, UM, UM, PANELS TO HANG THE ART ON, SO THAT'S GREAT.
WHAT TIME DO YOU WANT YOUR VOLUNTEERS? US YOUR COMMISSION? WHAT TIME DO YOU WANT US TO SHOW UP? WHAT JOBS DO YOU WANT US TO DO? HOW DO WE SUPPORT THIS WITH OUR PRESENCE AND OUR WORK? UM, WELL FIRST I WANT TO JUST BACK UP AND SAY IF YOU DO HAVE A CHILD, UM, WE DO HAVE SOME YOUTH, UM, SHOWCASE SPOTS AVAILABLE.
SO YOU CAN GO TO HH.BREAKFAST.COM/COMMUNITY/HALL.
UNDER THE ART PROGRAMS TAB, YOU CAN FIND THE YOUTH, UM, ART REGISTRATION.
THEY DO NOT NEED TO UPLOAD ANY ARTWORK SO THE KIDS CAN JUST SIGN UP.
SO THERE'S AN ELEMENTARY CATEGORY, A JUNIOR HIGH SCHOOL CATEGORY, NOT HIGH SCHOOL CATEGORY.
THE, UM, REGISTRATION IS OPEN UNTIL THE 28TH, SO YOU HAVE PLENTY OF TIME TO GET YOUR KIDS SIGNED UP.
WE WANNA SEE ALL THE WONDERFUL THINGS THAT THEY CREATE.
SO, HEY MOLLY, IF I HAVE A KID WHO WANTS TO SIGN UP, DO THEY HAVE TO SIT AT AN ART SHOW ALL DAY AROUND STRANGERS? THEY DO NOT.
SO THEY CAN BRING THEIR ARTWORK AND DROP IT OFF ON FRIDAY DURING THE ARTIST SET UP.
UM, AND THEY CAN JUST COME AND PICK IT UP AFTER THE ART SHOW IS OVER ON SATURDAY.
SO THEY DO NOT NEED TO BE PRESENT ON THE DAY DURING THE ART SHOW.
BUT IF YOU LIKE TO COME IN AND KIND OF SEE WHERE YOUR CHILD PLACED, WE DO HAVE SOME FREE ART ACTIVITIES FOR THE KIDS TO ENJOY WHILE THEY ARE AT THE ART SHOW.
IF YOU AND ALL THE ART AS WELL.
UM, IN REGARDS TO SETTING UP, UH, THOSE WHO CAN VOLUNTEER TO SET UP, WE ARE SCHEDULED TO START SETTING UP AT 3:00 PM ON FRIDAY.
FRIDAY WHAT? ON FRIDAY MAY 1ST.
THE ARTIST WILL START ARRIVING AT FIVE TO DISPLAY THEIR ARTWORK.
SO WE NEED TO GET THE TABLES CLOTHS ON, GET THE PANELS ARRANGED TO GET THE SIGN TONGUE AND GET THE REGISTRATION TABLE OPEN BEFORE THEY ARRIVE AT FIVE.
DID WE EVER, UM, GET SOMEBODY WHO WAS WANTING TO DO FOOD FOR THIS? NO.
I REACHED OUT A COUPLE DIFFERENT ORGANIZATIONS, BUT NONE OF THEM WERE AVAILABLE.
WE DO HAVE THE KITCHEN AVAILABLE, SO I THINK THE COMMISSION WANTS TO, UH, HAVE THAT OPPORTUNITY.
WHAT KIND OF FOOD DID YOU WANT? CANDY BARS, CHIPS, SNACKY THINGS.
WE DO HAVE WATER FROM THE FAUCET THAT WE CAN GIVE WATER AWAY FOR FREE.
WE HAVE SOME PINK LEMONADE LEFTOVER THAT WE CAN GIVE AWAY FOR FREE.
I MEAN, I CAN GO TO COSTCO AND GFS AND BUY A, YOU KNOW, COMPLETELY PREPACKAGED CONCESSION STAND AND WORK IT.
I MIGHT NEED TO ASK SARAH OR MOLLY IF THERE'S A A T-SHIRT THAT I COULD WEAR.
'CAUSE MY COMMISSION SHIRT IS REAL BIG NOW.
BUT, UM, WE CAN GET THE SUPPLIES FROM THE, THE COMMISSION'S BUDGET TOO, SO THAT YOU DON'T HAVE TO DO THAT.
UM, IT'S JUST IF YOU WANNA WORK IT AND WHAT YOU GUYS WOULD LIKE TO OFFER, I NEED TO BE HAMMERED OUT.
I'LL TAKE THAT AS AN OFFLINE ACTION ITEM.
I WILL FOLLOW UP AND HAVE A CONVERSATION.
'CAUSE YOU KNOW, I'LL, I'LL NEED TO KNOW ABOUT CASH BOX AND, AND CASH CONTROLS AND, AND HOW, WHAT ARE THE RULES? BUT I'M GONNA BE THERE ALL
[00:10:01]
DAY ANYWAY.ESPECIALLY WITH LISA JUDGING, UH, IF THAT'S A THING THAT IS AN OUTAGE, I VOLUNTEER AS TRIBUTE.
I THINK THAT'S WHAT WE, WHAT WE'VE DONE SO FAR.
SHE'S DONE A LOT OF THIS STUFF, SO I THINK WE'RE GOOD TO GO.
THE GOAL FOR US AS A DATA-DRIVEN ORGANIZATION IS ALWAYS TO PAY ATTENTION TO THE NUMBERS AND, AND SEE HOW WE DO.
WE HAD LIKE 12 LAST YEAR, SO 14 INDIVIDUALS, SEVEN VENDORS IS ALREADY A SIGNIFICANT STEP FORWARD.
ANY QUESTIONS BEFORE WE CONTINUE ON? WHAT TIME SATURDAY DO VOLUNTEERS NEED TO BE THERE? GREAT QUESTION.
I MEAN, THERE'S NOT GONNA BE MUCH TO DO ON SATURDAY, BUT THERE COULD BE LITTLE SMALL DETAILS.
SOMETHING UM, THE SHOW STARTS AT WHAT ONE? THERE'S THE RECEPTION FOUR.
ARE YOU LOOKING FOR YOUR SCHEDULE? YEAH, SORRY, I WAS LOOKING FOR THE SCHEDULE.
UM, YEAH, DON'T HAVE A FLYER WITH ME, BUT, OKAY.
SO ON THE, THE ART SHOW ITSELF IS ON SATURDAY THE SECOND FROM ONE TO FIVE.
UM, HOWEVER, I'M ALLOW ARTISTS TO COME IN IF THEY CAN'T MAKE IT FRIDAY NIGHT, THAT THEY CAN COME IN SATURDAY MORNING IF THEY NEED TO, TO HELP SET UP THEIR THINGS.
STARTING AT 9:00 AM EVERYTHING HAS TO BE IN PLACE ENCLOSED FOR THE JURY.
JURY JUDGING TO START AT 10:00 AM JUDGING WILL HAPPEN FROM 10 TO 1130.
IT IS CLOSE AND THERE WILL BE A PERMITTED TO BE IN THE GRAND HALL FROM 10 TO 1130.
WE'LL HAVE THE ARTIST WELCOME RECEPTIONS FROM 1230 TO ONE AND THE EVENT STARTS AT ONE.
SO IT IDEALLY YOU NEED PEOPLE THERE LIKE AT NINE
JUST TO CLARIFY, ARE WE STILL LOOKING FOR A NONPROFIT TO RUN A CONCESSIONS FOR THIS? OR DID YOU WANT TO AS THE OPTIMIST CLUB? WELL, THAT WOULD BE ME DOING IT.
I HAVE TOO MANY IRONS IN THE FIRE, SO YOU NEED TO PASS.
YES, I WOULD'VE TO PASS, NO, THE CLUB WOULD'VE TO PASS, BUT I WILL SAY OUR ANNUAL MEETING IS THE WEEK PRIOR.
AND SO NON-PERISHABLES, I SUPPOSE WE COULD DONATE IF WE HAVE, I MEAN, ARE WE GONNA HAVE BEVERAGES? THE ONLY THINGS FOR THAT WE HAVE NON-PERISHABLE WOULD BE CHIPS AND THINGS LIKE THAT.
BUT IF WE HAVE THINGS LEFTOVER, WE WOULD BE WHAT'S HAPPENING FOR THE ARTIST'S RECEPTION FROM 1230 TO ONE? WHAT IS THE PLAN FOR THAT? UM, I WAS GONNA GET SOME OF THOSE SINCE IT'S AN AMERICA TWO 50 THEME.
I WAS GONNA GET THOSE COOKIES AGAIN THAT WE HAVE FOR THE 45TH PROCLAMATION.
UM, I WAS GONNA GET THIS STACK OF THOSE SAME COOKIES, BUT THE BLESSED TIES FOR THE ARTIST RECEPTION AND JUST PROVIDE THEM WITH COFFEE, WATER, AND COOKIES AND KIND OF A WELCOME THANK YOU.
AND GET THEM PARTICIPATION RIBBONS IF THEY'RE THERE.
SO THE CONCESSION, IF THE OPTIMISTS DON'T WANT IT AND YOU KNOW, I'M JUST LIKE, HEY, I VOLUNTEER THIS TRIBUTE.
I COULD DO IT ON BEHALF OF CULTURE WORKS AND I COULD SEE IF CULTURE WORKS WOULD HAVE A VENDOR TABLE JUST SO THEY COULD TALK ABOUT, YOU KNOW, HAVE SOME INFORMATION.
OH YEAH, THAT WOULD BE A GREAT IDEA.
AND THAT WAY THAT MAKES SENSE WITH LISA THERE.
AND THAT MAKES SENSE WHY I MIGHT BE DOING IT.
SO THEN IT WOULD STILL BE A NONPROFIT THAT LOOKS LIKE HELP.
UM, UM, THE TREASURER FOR OUR LOCAL BOY SCOUTS.
UM, IT'S SHORT NOTICE, BUT I MEAN THEY MAY, I MEAN THEY'RE ALWAYS LOOKING TO DO THINGS LIKE THAT IN THE COMMUNITY AND THEY'RE AT HUBER HEIGHTS.
SO COULD YOU GIVE ME, GIVE UH, EMAIL TO SARAH AND REPLY ALL TO THE AGENDA DOCUMENT THAT WENT OUT BY TODAY IS MONDAY BY FRIDAY OF THIS WEEK.
I'LL, I'LL SEND OUT, WE WE MEET WEDNESDAY.
SO I'LL BRING IT UP WEDNESDAY NOW HOW WOULD THIS WORK? 'CAUSE THEY'RE GONNA ASK ME.
UM, SO WE HAVE A KITCHEN THAT IS, UM, IT'S GOT ALL OF ITS HEALTH LICENSES AND STUFF LIKE THAT.
SO FOOD CAN BE PREPARED IN IT AS THE CONCESSIONS OPERATION IF YOU WANTED TO DO HOT DOGS OR LIKE SOME MICROWAVE POPCORN OR SOMETHING.
UM, BUT I WOULD RECOMMEND YOU JUST STICK WITH LIKE PREPACKAGED COOKIES AND CHIPS AND DRINKS.
[00:15:01]
THE ORGANIZATION GET PART OF THE, YOU YOU COULD GET ILET ME BRING, I THINK THAT SOUNDS LIKE A, A GOOD IDEA.
I NEED TO KNOW AGAIN, THE HOUR.
WILL THE HOURS BE, WHAT TIME WOULD YOU WANT SERVING FROM MOLLY? ONE TO FIVE.
AND IF YOU'RE MENTIONING IT TO 'EM, REMIND THE SCOUTS THAT, YOU KNOW, THEY DO ARTS TOO AND THEY MIGHT WANT HAVE SOMETHING TO CONTRIBUTE.
IF THEY'RE COMING ANYWAY, RIGHT? YEAH.
I I THINK THIS, I THINK THIS IS SOMETHING THEY MAY, MAY WANT TO DO.
SO IF YOU WOULD JUST, UH, REPLY ALL TO THAT EMAIL CHAIN TO CONFIRM I AND CULTURE WORKS WILL BE THE BACKUP.
UH, BREAK GLASS IN CASE OF EMERGENCY OPTION.
ANYTHING ELSE? THANK YOU SO MUCH.
UH, TWO MONTHS AGO WE HAD MADE SOME FORWARD PROGRESS.
WE FOUND A LOCATION AND WE WERE WORKING WITH OUR VENDOR WHO WOULD LIKE TO GIVE AN UPDATE AS TO WHERE WE ARE TODAY.
I CAN GIVE AN UPDATE AS TO WHY I PUT IT ON THE AGENDA MAYBE.
SO, UM, THE LAST LEFT OFF IS THAT, UM, UP HERE, LEASE CHICKEN ON CHAMBERSBURG WOULD BE INCREDIBLY EXCITED TO HAVE A MURAL OF WAYNE ATHLETES FOR THOSE THAT DON'T KNOW THAT LEASE CHICKEN, UM, RESTAURANT.
AND THE OWNER HAS BEEN VERY INVOLVED WITH WAYNE ATHLETICS FOR A LONG TIME AND UH, DOES LIKE AN ATHLETE OF THE MONTH AND IS JUST A HUGE WAYNE FAN AS MANY IN THE COMMUNITY ARE.
AND SO HE WAS ECSTATIC TO HEAR ABOUT IT.
HOWEVER, COMMUNICATION WITH OUR STUDENT WHO WAS ACTUALLY OUT OF, UM, UH, SHE'S ACTUALLY HOMESCHOOLED AND I THINK LIVES IN BETHEL SCHOOL DISTRICT, BUT IN HUBER HEIGHTS, UM, HAS COMPLETELY FALLEN OFF US NOR THE MSA CONTRACTOR TO DO THE DESIGN WORK HAVE BEEN ABLE TO GET IN CONTACT WITH HER.
AND SO AT THIS POINT, I WOULD LIKE TO REQUEST THE BOARD'S PERMISSION TO HAVE MSA WORK DIRECTLY WITH, UM, THE SCHOOLS AND CHUCK DURAN, WHO IS THE OWNER OF THE LEASED CHICKEN, AND SEE WHAT KIND OF VISION THEY MIGHT COME UP WITH TO CELEBRATE WAYNE ATHLETES, UM, AND WAYNE ATHLETICS.
AND THEN PERHAPS BRING THOSE BACK TO THE BOARD FOR CONSIDERATION FROM THERE.
I THINK THAT MIGHT BE THE BEST COURSE OF ACTION MOVING FORWARD, ESPECIALLY WITH IT BEING A PRIVATELY OWNED BUSINESS THAT WE WOULD BE PUTTING THE MURAL ON.
I IMAGINE THAT HE WILL HAVE A LOT TO SAY ABOUT, UM, WHAT MIGHT GO ON THERE RATHER THAN US OPENING IT UP TO LIKE A COMPETITION OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT IN THE COMMUNITY.
BUT I'M OPENING IT UP FOR YOUR DISCUSSION.
UM, WHERE WE ARE IS THESE CHICKEN WOULD LIKE TO HAVE IT.
MSA IS READY TO DO THE DESIGN.
WE HAVE NO CONCEPT TO GO FROM, SO WE NEED TO GET DIRECTION FROM SOMEONE SOMEWHERE.
I'M SAYING PERHAPS FROM CHUCK DURAN FROM, UM, THE SCHOOLS IN THERE, UM, GOSH, I'M BLANKING ON THE TERM, BUT THE HALL OF FAME COMMITTEE, UM, AND ATHLETIC DIRECTOR AND THAT SORT OF THING.
BUT WE AREN'T TIED TO ANYTHING YET.
AND IF THAT IS THE DIRECTION, THEN WE'LL START WORKING ON A, A CONTRACT DROP WITH MR. DURAN.
UM, ARE WE TIED TO THAT, UM, CELEBRATING THE ATHLETES NOW BECAUSE THAT WAS HER, HER ORIGINAL ACCEPT.
ARE WE STILL TIED TO THAT THEME? OR COULD WE GO IN THE DIRECTION OF 45 YEAR ANNIVERSARY OR, YOU KNOW, OR WHAT THE MOSAIC COMPANY SUBMITTED? YEAH, IF YOU DO THAT, THEN WE'RE, YOU PROBABLY DON'T HAVE A LOCATION OH, OKAY.
ANYMORE BECAUSE HE WAS, YOU KNOW, RIGHT.
BECAUSE HE'S ALL JAZZED ABOUT OKAY.
THAT'S WHAT, WHAT MY QUESTION WAS.
SO CHUCK IS THE, IS REALLY IN FAVOR OF THE ATHLETICS? I THINK SO NOW, NOT TO SAY THAT A TWO 50TH EMBLEM, YOU KNOW, OR SOMETHING SAYING, YOU KNOW, THAT THIS IS, THIS MURAL'S GOING ON IN THE YEAR OF OUR 250TH ANNIVERSARY.
IT COULDN'T BE INCORPORATED, BUT, AND THE 45TH I GOT CHUCK, THAT'S, HEY, THAT'S FINE WITH ME.
I MEAN, I JUST, I JUST WONDERED BECAUSE IT WAS HER ORIGINAL CONCEPT, YOU KNOW, IF WE WERE STILL STICKING WITH THAT THEME.
BUT IF CHUCK'S ON BOARD FOR IT, IT'S HIS BUILDING.
[00:20:01]
OUR PARKS AND REC REPRESENTATION THAT THIS COMMISSION CONSIDER A MOTION TO AUTHORIZE MSA, THE COMPANY AND THE OWNERS OF THE SITE TO WORK TOGETHER DIRECTLY TO FINALIZE A CONCEPT AND OR TO, AND COME BACK TO THIS COMMISSION TO APPROVE IT.IS THERE ANY, THERE'S BEEN A LITTLE BIT OF QUESTION, SO WE KNOW THAT, THAT THE TOPIC IS SET.
IS THERE ANY OTHER CONVERSATION OR INPUT ON THAT SUGGESTION? I WILL MOVE THE, THE OWNER AND THE ART, UH, INSTALL INSTALLATION COMPANY.
IS THAT WHAT WAS GOING ON? SHOULD, YOU KNOW, PROCEED WITH THEIR, WITH THEIR PROPOSALS AND THEN WE'LL GO BACK AND REVISIT IT.
SO CHERYL HAS MADE A MOTION, UH, TOWARD THAT SUGGESTION.
DO I HAVE A SECOND FROM THE COMMISSION? SECOND.
KNICKERBOCKER ALL ALIGNED PLEASE SAY AYE.
SO PLEASE, UH, COMMUNICATE WITH THEM AND PLACE THAT ON OUR NEXT AGENDA.
AND THE ART POLICY, THIS IS SOMETHING OUR COMMISSION HAS WANTED TO TAKE UP AS OF THE LAST MEETING NOTES.
UM, LET ME GET CLOSER 'CAUSE I'M, I'M ECHOING A LITTLE AS OF THE LAST MEETING NOTES.
I BELIEVE IT SAID THAT, UH, THERE WE WERE GOING TO COME BACK WITH SOME TOPICS OR SOME QUESTIONS.
IS THAT RIGHT? THAT IS CORRECT.
FROM THE LAST MEETING NOTES, I MET WITH WENDY WHO IS CHAMPIONING THIS.
UM, AND I THOUGHT SHE WAS GONNA BE HERE TONIGHT.
I HOPE THAT EVERYTHING'S OKAY.
UM, SHE AND I HAD A DISCUSSION.
UM, I PERSONALLY FEEL THAT WHEN I START THINKING ABOUT IT, I GET INTO THIS SENSE OF LIKE A WATERFALL.
THAT ONE QUESTION BEGETS ANOTHER AND UM, IT'S KIND OF A SNOWBALL EFFECT.
I'M FEELING A LITTLE OVER MY HEAD.
UM, AT THE SAME TIME, AN OPPORTUNITY HAS ARISEN TO GO FOR A GRANT, UM, THAT WE WOULD BE ABLE TO FUND AN ART MASTER PLAN FOR THE COMMUNITY.
SO THIS COULD GIVE US AN IDEA OF, YOU KNOW, WE OBVIOUSLY WOULD BE, WE'D BE STARTING OUT, THEY'D LOOK AT THE COMMISSION, UM, THEY'D TALK TO ALL OF YOU, THEY'D TALK TO OTHER STAKEHOLDERS IN THE COMMUNITY AND THEY'D SAY, HERE'S SOME BASIC POLICY THAT YOU SHOULD START WITH.
AND HERE'S SOME REALLY GREAT EXAMPLES FROM OTHER COMMUNITIES YOUR SIZE.
THEY WOULD SAY, HERE'S OPPORTUNITIES IN YOUR AREA THAT AREN'T BEING CAPITALIZED ON HERE.
WHEN WE TALKED TO COMMUNITY MEMBERS, THESE WERE LIKE THE KEY BUZZWORDS THAT THEY WANTED.
UM, MAYBE THEY ALL WANT FINE ART OR MAYBE THERE'S A LOT OF PERFORMING ART DRIVE IN THE COMMUNITY.
THEY WOULD HELP US IDENTIFY, UM, THOSE THINGS THAT WE COULD REALLY HAVE THIS BOARD STEER THAT TOWARDS WHATEVER QUESTIONS YOU WOULD WANT ANSWERED.
UM, I THINK THERE'S AN OPPORTUNITY TO GO FOR A MASTER PLAN WHETHER OR NOT WE GET THE GRANT, BUT I DO THINK THAT WE SHOULD APPLY FOR THE GRANT.
AND SO THAT IS THE CONVERSATION I WANTED TO HAVE TONIGHT.
I SHARED THAT GRANT, UM, WITH WENDY AS WELL AND SHE WAS LOOKING AT IT TOO.
SO, UH, WENDY HAS BEEN CHAMPION CHAMPIONING THIS EFFORT AND I DON'T WANT TO GO TOO FAR WITHOUT HER.
UM, BUT WE DO HAVE A SUGGESTION FROM OUR REPRESENTATIVE TO, UH, WHETHER OR NOT TO RECOMMEND TO THE PARKS AND REC DEPARTMENT THAT THEY GO FOR THIS GRANT FOR AN ART MASTER PLAN.
AND WOULD WE AS A COMMISSION SUPPORT THAT? AND SO MAYBE TABLE SOME OF OUR POLICY AND PROCEDURE WORK WHILE THAT GOES ON CONVERSATION.
I DON'T THINK WE SHOULD EVER TURN DOWN MONEY.
I, I, YOU KNOW, UNLESS SOMEBODY ELSE HAS ANY, ANYTHING TO ADD, I WOULD, I WOULD MOVE THAT WE, YOU KNOW, INVESTIGATE THE GRANT AND CULTURE WORKS HAS DONE THESE MASTER PLAN PROGRAMS. THEY'RE FANTASTIC.
IS THERE NO OTHER CITY IN OHIO THAT MAYBE HAS, IS OUR POLICY IN PLACE THAT WE CAN JUST STEAL? YEAH, EXACTLY.
THERE, THERE IS BORROW, BIG BORROW SEAL.
UM, BUT THE WAY THAT THOSE INDIVIDUAL COMMUNITIES ARE STRUCTURED MIGHT BE A LITTLE DIFFERENT.
UM, THE WAY THAT THEIR BOARDS AND COMMISSIONS ARE EMPOWERED OR VERSUS ADVISORY VERSUS THE, YOU KNOW, HOW THEIR ELECTED OFFICIALS WORK.
AND IT COULD JUST BE A LITTLE DIFFERENT.
WE CAN COPY AND PASTE QUITE A BIT OF IT.
UM, BUT IN ADDITION TO THE POLICY, THE MASTER PLAN WOULD ALSO GIVE US
[00:25:01]
THINGS LIKE IDENTIFYING KEY AREAS IN THE CITY FOR PUBLIC ART INSTALLATIONS.UM, THEY WOULD GET STAKEHOLDER FEEDBACK, SO SURVEYING COMMUNITY MEMBERS ON THE TYPES OF ART AND OFFERINGS THAT THEY WANT TO SEE.
UM, AND TALKING TO THIS BOARD AND HELPING MAYBE HAMMER OUT, UM, WE COULD RE LEGISLATE THE, THE DEFINITION AND PURPOSE OF THE BOARD AND COMMISSION TO BE CLEAR AND MISSION DRIVEN AND FOCUSED ON THE VISION THAT YOU HAVE COME UP WITH.
SO THERE'S JUST A LOT OF OPPORTUNITY AND, AND ALL OF THOSE, UM, POLICIES I SENT YOU EARLIER FROM UPPER ARLINGTON, THOSE CAME ABOUT FROM THEM UNDERGOING A MASTER PLAN PROCESS.
I LIKE THE IDEA OF BUILDING ON THEIR WORK INSTEAD OF STARTING FROM SCRATCH.
I THINK THE, THE MASTER PLAN IS NICE 'CAUSE IT'S NOT US STARTING FROM SCRATCH.
WE'D BE HIRING PROFESSIONALS WHO DO, YOU KNOW, IT SOUNDS LIKE THERE ARE CONSULTANTS BASICALLY THAT ARE EXPERTS ON HOW CITIES USE BEAUTIFICATION TO HELP TAILOR A PLAN TO US BASED ON THEIR EXPERIENCE AND THE OTHER CITIES THAT THEY'VE WORKED WITH.
I'M JUST RATHER CURIOUS AS I CAN SEE WHERE THERE'S QUITE A LOT OF INTERPRETATION THAT THIS IS OPEN TO AND I REALLY WOULD, SINCE THEY'VE GOT THIS GOING, I REALLY WANT TO SEE MORE ABOUT HOW THEIR IDEAS OF IN ART INTERPRETATION WORK WITHIN THAT BOUNDARIES.
AS SARAH MENTIONED EARLIER, IT JUST SEEMED LIKE ONE QUESTION OPENED TWO MORE BEFORE EACH ANSWER.
BUT YEAH, I, I DO LIKE THIS IDEA OF, YOU KNOW, FOLLOWING IN THE FOOTSTEPS OF SOMEBODY THAT'S ALREADY BEEN THAT DIRECTION.
BUT RIGHT NOW WE'RE JUST REALLY CONCERNED WITH THE GRANT ITSELF RIGHT.
IF, IF YOU WOULD SUPPORT THE PROCESS.
'CAUSE THEY'LL WANNA TALK TO YOU A LOT.
AND HAVING WORKED ON GRANTS, I CAN TELL YOU THE MORE PAPERWORK YOU'VE ALREADY GOT IN PLACE, THE BETTER THE GRANT AWARD, WARDEE ORDER, UH, ARE MORE LIKELY TO LOOK OUR IN OUR DIRECTION.
I'M HEARING CONVERSATION THAT SOUNDS LIKE WE ARE PROVISION, WE ARE AS A COMMISSION SUPPORTIVE OF THE IDEA OF DIVING INTO OUR POLICIES AND PROCEDURES, UM, BENEFITING FROM SOMEONE ELSE'S WORK AND BENEFITING FROM EXPERTS HELPING GUIDE US IN THE EVER BRANCHING CONVERSATIONS.
IF I UNDERSTOOD THAT CORRECTLY, I WOULD LOVE TO HAVE A MOTION THAT WOULD, UH, SAY MOVE THAT THIS COMMISSION SUPPORT THE GRANT PROGRAM THAT THE PARKS AND REC WILL BE APPLYING FOR.
WE AGREE THAT WE WOULD SUPPORT THE INVESTIGATORY PROCESS AND WE WOULD PAUSE OUR ACTIVE POLICY AND PROCEDURE WORK.
THOUGH WE WILL CONTINUE REVIEWING AND LEARNING IN THE INTERIM.
I'VE DONE ONE OF THOSE PROGRAMS AND IT'S FANTASTIC.
UM, ON THE AGENDA IS SHARK TANK.
DO YOU WANT OH, BRADFORD PAIR REMOVALS.
SO BEFORE WE JUMP INTO THE BRADFORD, UH, PEAR TREE REMOVAL PROCESS AND, AND WHAT WE NEED TO KNOW THERE, I JUST WANT TO SAY, UM, I AM AN OLD LADY AND SO I LIKE FACEBOOK
I'M AN ADMIN FOR THE CARRIAGE TRAILS, UH, FACEBOOK COMMUNITY GROUP.
AND SOMEONE IS ALWAYS JUMPING IN WITH, MAN, WHY ARE THEY CUTTING DOWN TREES? AND IN EVERY THREAD I HAVE SEEN, THERE ARE FIVE OR SIX PEOPLE JUMPING RIGHT IN AND SAYING, WELL THE CITY'S DOING THIS THING.
I'M SO GLAD THEY'RE, EVERYBODY IS PROMOTING IT.
THIS HAS BEEN SO FANTASTIC OF A RESPONSE THAT THE PEOPLE WHO DON'T KNOW ARE GETTING EDUCATED AND WE ARE GONNA DO SOME STUFF AND WE'RE GONNA SUPPORT IT.
BUT ALREADY I THINK THE SENTIMENT I AM SEEING IS A WIN.
UM, OUR PUBLIC'S WORK, CREW, CREW DESERVES MAJOR PROPS.
[00:30:01]
SPEED AND PRECISION AND THEY'RE GRINDING THOSE STUMPS OUT STILL.UM, WE ARE PAUSED RIGHT NOW, SO IF YOU STILL SEE SOME OF THE STREET TREES AROUND, UM, WE'RE PAUSED RIGHT NOW BECAUSE WE DON'T REMOVE TREES, UM, UNLESS THEY'RE HAZARDOUS DURING, UM, BAT UH, THE INDIANA BROWN BATS MATING AND PUFFING SEASON.
SO, UM, THEY, IT'S, IT'S UNLIKELY THAT THEY WOULD BE IN THE BRADFORD PEARS.
THEY'RE NOT THEIR PREFERRED TYPE, BUT THEY COULD BE.
AND SO WE WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT, UM, WE'RE TAKING CARE OF OUR ENDANGERED SPECIES HERE IN THE AREA OR PROTECTED SPECIES.
UM, SO WE'RE PAUSED FOR RIGHT NOW AND WE'LL PICK IT BACK UP IN THE FALL.
UM, MOST LIKELY LOOKING AT PLANTING REPLACEMENTS IN THE SPRING OF 27.
UM, BECAUSE IT IS GONNA BE SUCH A LARGE PACKAGE, WE'RE GONNA NEED TO BID IT AND WE'RE GONNA NEED TO TALK TO MAYBE SEVERAL DIFFERENT NURSERIES ON, ON HAVING, UM, PRODUCT FOR US.
UM, THIS ALSO WAS CHAMPIONED BY WENDY WHEN I LAST TALKED TO HER.
SHE WAS GOING TO COME UP WITH SOME IDEAS FOR THE BOARD TO GET BEHIND, UM, AND ALSO TRY AND ELICIT SOME IDEAS, I THINK FROM YOU ALL ON, JUST HOW WE CONTINUE TO PROMOTE THIS WITH INDIVIDUAL HOMEOWNERS AND BUSINESS OWNERS AND GET MORE PEOPLE ON BOARD WITH REMOVING THESE TREES THROUGHOUT THE COMMUNITY.
UM, AND SO I THINK SINCE SHE'S NOT HERE, IT CAN PROBABLY BE TABLED UNLESS ANYBODY HAD SOMETHING THEY WANTED TO TALK ABOUT.
UM, MY ONE QUESTION IS, DO WE HAVE, UM, COMPANIES LINED UP THAT ARE, YOU KNOW, ONBOARD TO LIKE, TO SERVICE THESE REQUESTS FROM HOMEOWNERS? SO DO WE HAVE, LIKE COULD WE, CAN WE CAMPAIGN THIS WITH A FLYER THAT SAYS THESE, THESE TREE COMPANIES ARE AVAILABLE TO FOR REMOVAL AT THIS PRICE OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT? IS THERE SOMETHING LIKE THAT IN THE WORKS THAT WE'RE LOOKING INTO OR, UM, SO FOR, TO OPTIMIZE, MAXIMIZE THE GRANT MONIES.
OUR PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT DID THE REMOVALS IN-HOUSE.
UM, BUT I THINK THAT THAT'S A FANTASTIC IDEA IF THAT'S ONE THAT THE COMMISSION WANTS TO RUN WITH, TALKING TO SOME LOCAL TREE SERVICES AND SEEING WHAT WE MIGHT BE ABLE TO WORK OUT.
SO IF THAT'S SOMETHING THAT YOU ALL WANNA CHAMPION YEAH, IF WE CAN KIND OF COME UP WITH A PRICE THAT THEY'RE ALL KIND OF COMFORTABLE WITH THAT WE COULD SAY WE COULD, YOU KNOW, PUSH THAT.
OR IF X AMOUNT OF PEOPLE SIGN UP, THEY CAN DO IT FOR THIS AMOUNT OF MONEY OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT.
I THINK THAT WOULD BE A GREAT I IDEA.
THE MORE FRICTION WE CAN REMOVE FROM THE PROCESS, THE MORE LIKELY HOMEOWNERS ARE GONNA DO IT.
SO IF YOU SAY, YOU KNOW, HERE'S WHAT YOU NEED TO DO IN ORDER TO GET YOURS REMOVED.
'CAUSE I'M ALSO ON THE FACEBOOK AND I HAVE SEEN PEOPLE IN THE COMMON SAY, OH, I HAVE A BRADFORD PAIR, I WISH I COULD GET MINE REMOVED.
HOW, YOU KNOW, HOW DO I DO THAT? IT'S VERY HARD, HARD TO FIND REPUTABLE TREE REMOVAL PEOPLE.
I MEAN, PEOPLE KNOCK ON YOUR DOOR ALL THE TIME, BUT WHETHER THEY'RE GONNA BE THERE, YOU KNOW, TO PICK UP THE MESS OR WHATEVER ELSE.
SO I THINK WE NEED TO BE ABLE TO, BECAUSE PEOPLE ARE VERY SKEPTICAL OF THAT AND VERY FEARFUL OF GETTING ANYBODY TO DO THAT KIND OF WORK IN THEIR YARD BECAUSE THEY'RE NOTORIOUSLY NOT DEPENDABLE.
SO WE NEED, I FEEL LIKE WE NEED TO, YOU KNOW, DO THE RESEARCH AND FIND SOME SOME TREE COMPANIES THAT ARE WILLING TO DO THIS FOR A REASONABLE PRICE THAT WE CAN RECOMMEND.
SO LET'S PUT THE BRADFORD PAIR REMOVAL AS A TOP ITEM ON NEXT MONTH'S AGENDA.
AND BETWEEN NOW AND THEN, LET'S MAKE SURE IT'S WITHIN OUR COMMISSION MANDATE TO, UH, RECOMMEND, YOU KNOW, ONE BUSINESS OVER ANOTHER.
LET'S MAKE SURE WE'RE GOOD TO DO THAT, BUT THEN WE CAN REALLY, UH, DIVE INTO THIS NEXT MONTH.
I DON'T KNOW, I, I TEND TO THINK WE'RE TREADING ON THIN ICE RECOMMENDING A, SOMETHING LIKE A TREE SERVICE THAT I, YOU KNOW, THERE'S ENOUGH REPUTABLE, UM, PEOPLE THAT DO THAT IN WHO ARE DOMICILED HERE IN, IN HUBER HEIGHTS.
AND THEN PEOPLE CAN ALWAYS GO TO SOMETHING LIKE ANGIE'S LIST OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT TO FIND I AGREE WITH YOU GREG.
THERE MAY BE A A THERE MAY BE A, A CONFLICT OF INTEREST.
THAT'S WHY I'M, I'M LIKE, WE'RE GONNA IN BEFORE WE GO TOO FAR THAT WAY, WE'RE GONNA INVESTIGATE WHAT OUR MANDATE IS.
BUT BETH, YOU KNOW, WORST CASE SCENARIO, WE CAN CERTAINLY, UH, BRING THE CHAMBER OF COMMERCE ALONG WITH US AND THEIR LOCAL HUB BUSINESSES.
THE LOCAL HUB CHAMBER I REMEMBER IS A FANTASTIC ORGANIZATION AND HAS A LOT OF CONTACT, SO, OKAY.
[00:35:01]
THERE, WELL ON THE FOUNDATION BOARD, BUT I'M IN CONSTANT CONTACT WITH MASON SO I COULD MAYBE EVEN PASS THAT.AND I LOVE THE T-SHIRT IDEA THAT WE'VE BEEN THROWING BACK AND FORTH.
I THINK WE NEED TO GIVE THEM SOME KIND OF A, A REWARD FOR THAT.
I CAN WORK ON A DESIGN FOR THAT.
BETWEEN NOW AND OUR NEXT MEETING, PLEASE DO, UM, REACH OUT TO WENDY TOO.
I THINK SHE WAS THINKING OF OKAY.
SO FOR JOE, FOR YOUR BENEFIT, UM, THIS YEAR, WELL LAST YEAR WAS MY FIRST YEAR CHAIRING THIS COMMISSION.
AND I HAD COMMITTED TO THE CITY COUNCIL THAT WE WOULD BE DATA-DRIVEN.
WE WOULD NOT JUST DO THINGS BECAUSE WE WOULD HAVE ALWAYS DONE THEM.
WE WOULD JUDGE OUR METRICS, WE WOULD KEEP TRACK OF OUR METRICS AND WE WOULD THINK CREATIVELY ABOUT WHERE WE PUT OUR VERY PRECIOUS VOLUNTEER HOURS.
AND SO THE WAY THAT CAME TO LIFE IS LATE SUMMER WE SET ASIDE A MEETING FOR SHARK TANK AND THAT'S BASED ON A TV SHOW WHERE WE INVITED CITIZENS, MEMBERS OF THE PARKS AND RECREATION BOARD, MEMBERS OF THIS COMMISSION TO FLESH OUT IDEAS THAT THEY'VE ALWAYS WANTED TO TRY OR WISHED THAT WE COULD GET TO THE CITY TO DO AND TO PITCH THEM IN THREE OR FOUR MINUTES OR LESS.
SPOILER ALERT, IT WAS NOT THREE OR FOUR MINUTES OR LESS, BUT THERE WERE SOME FANTASTIC IDEAS THAT CAME FORWARD.
AND THEN WE AS A COMMISSION WOULD SAY, AM I WILLING TO PUT LIMITED VOLUNTEER TIME? AM I WILLING TO SUPPORT THAT AS A COMMISSION MEMBER? AND THEN WE WERE ABLE TO RECOMMEND THAT TO THE PARKS AND REC, WHICH ALLOWED US TO SET A BUDGET AND OFFER THAT TO THE CITY COUNCIL BEFORE THEIR SEPTEMBER MEETING.
SO, UH, THAT WAS SARAH'S WILD HAIR IDEA AND I WANNA THANK EVERYONE FOR COMING ALONG ON THAT ADVENTURE WITH ME.
BUT NOW WE ARE GETTING TO, YOU KNOW, LOOKING AHEAD FOR SUMMER.
DO WE WANT TO TRY THAT AGAIN? DO YOU WANT TO SAY, SARAH, THAT WAS NICE.
UM,
OUR ART SHOW CHAMPIONED, UH, HERE ON THE COMMISSION WAS AMPLIFIED AS A DIRECT RESULT OF THAT MEETING.
WE SAID NO TO A COUPLE ACTIVITIES AND WE ALSO IMPROVED OUR YARD BEAUTIFICATION AS WELL AS ALIGNED SOME OF THIS DATE-WISE WITH THE, UH, US US TWO 50 STUFF BECAUSE WE WERE WORKING SO FAR IN ADVANCE.
MAYBE YOU COULD TAKE THIS YEAR IF YOU DID IT AGAIN AND DO UH, MAYBE DO SHARK TANK HOLIDAYS WHERE YOU, WE PICKED OUR THREE MAJOR HOLIDAYS HERE AND YOU HAD ONE IDEA FOR EACH.
SO YOU DID SOMETHING FOR CHRISTMAS, YOU DID SOMETHING FOR, SO I MEAN YOU WOULD, YOU WOULD HAVE SOMETHING THAT YOU WOULD KNOW WOULD BE STACKED THROUGHOUT THE YEAR.
YOU COULD DO A 4TH OF JULY AT CHRISTMAS.
I DUNNO IF YOU WANT TO DO EASTER 'CAUSE THAT'S A RELIGIOUS HOLIDAY, BUT YOU'D HAVE TO PICK A THIRD.
AND THEN YOU'D HAVE THREE DEFINITE THINGS THAT YOU WOULD BRING THAT YOU COULD ADVERTISE TO THE COMMUNITY.
SO YOU'D BREAK IT DOWN EVEN MORE AND PEOPLE LIKE THE HOLIDAY THINGS AND PEOPLE GO TO THOSE.
SO LIKE A, A THEME FOR THE SHARK TANK.
SO WE DO ALL YOU DO LIKE SHARK SHARK TANK HOLIDAY EDITION OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT IDEA.
THAT WOULD THAT WOULD BE MY IDEA.
THAT'S AN IDEA YOU COULD BRING TO SHARK TANK.
UM, SO RIGHT OFF THE BAT I THINK I'M HEARING OPENNESS TO DOING THAT AGAIN.
SO THAT WOULD NORMALLY HAPPEN AT OUR JUNE MEETING SO THAT WE COULD FINALIZE IN JULY WHAT WE WANTED TO DO.
GIVING ALL OF THAT TO THE PARKS AND REC BY AUGUST FOR YOUR SEPTEMBER BUDGET.
SO, UH, COULD I HAVE A MOTION FROM THE COMMISSION TO DEDICATE OUR JUNE MEETING TO OUR ANNUAL SHARK TANK AND REQUESTING PARKS AND REC TO START COMMUNICATING THAT TO CITIZENRY? SO MOVED.
I DO THINK THAT THAT PROCESS HAS
[00:40:01]
PICKED UP A LITTLE MOMENTUM TOO.I THINK PEOPLE HAVE HEARD ABOUT IT IN THE COMMUNITY SINCE IT HAPPENED.
SO IF WE DO IT, YES, WE WANNA KEEP TO THREE OR FOUR MINUTES, BUT WE MIGHT ALSO JUST THE BOARD MAYBE I GET SOME SNACKS AND STUFF THAT NIGHT AND THE BOARD JUST PREPARED TO SETTLE IN FOR LIKE MORE OF A YEAH.
TWO AND A HALF HOUR MEETING POSSIBLY, YOU KNOW? YEAH, I THINK THAT'S RIGHT.
AND UM, THERE'S PROBABLY NO WAY WE COULD HAVE TINY LITTLE FLYERS ABOUT IT AT THE ART SHOW FOR SURE.
WE'RE GONNA HAVE A, A TABLE AT THE ART SHOW THAT'S LIKE MAYBE A SIGN UP FOR PEOPLE WHO ARE INTERESTED IN BEING IN A LITTLE ART LEAGUE FOR HUBER.
SO WE CAN PUT THOSE KIND OF INFORMATIONAL THINGS ON THE TABLE AS WELL FOR THAT.
AND LEADING TO OUR NEXT TOPIC, UH, MENTIONING SOME INFORMATION ABOUT THE YARD BEAUTIFICATION AWARDS WOULD BE LOVELY TO HAVE AT LIKE, UM, MAYBE EVEN A TABLE FOR THE COMMISSION, LIKE OUR ACTIVITIES KIND OF THING.
SO SPEAKING OF YARD BEAUTIFICATION AWARDS, OUR FABULOUS CHERYL IS OUR CHAMPIONS.
SPEAKING OF BEING DATA-DRIVEN, WE MASSIVELY IMPROVED NOMINATIONS.
AND UH, OVERALL COMMUNICATION AND I THINK THE, UH, THE CITY COUNCIL WAS THRILLED BY THE NUMBERS AND IS LOOKING FORWARD TO WHAT WE DO THIS YEAR.
ALSO, WHEN ARE WE LOOKING AT OPENING? HAS CONVERSATION STARTED? WHAT DO WE NEED TO DO TO SUPPORT THIS? I THINK IT WORKED WELL LAST YEAR.
WE KINDA STARTED EARLIER LAST YEAR.
UM, I THINK WE OPENED IT IN THE END OF MAY.
WAS IT, UM, I THINK IT WAS THE BEGINNING ON THINK OF MAY WE OPENED THAT THE NOMINATION.
NOBODY'S REALLY GOT FLOWERS OUT BY THEN THOUGH.
I THOUGHT WE, I THOUGHT IT'S BECAUSE YOU CAN'T REALLY NOMINATE SOMEBODY IF THIRD YARD ISN'T.
I THINK WE BEGAN HARDCORE CONVERSATION AT THE BEGINNING OF MAY WITH THE IDEA THAT AS YOU'RE PUTTING OUT YOUR MOTHER'S DAY FLOWERS YEAH.
OPEN THE, OPEN IT ON MOTHER'S DAY.
START, START OPEN APPLICATIONS OR THE, THE NOMINATIONS.
IT LOOKS LIKE THE FIRST NOMINATION CAME IN MAY 29TH LAST YEAR.
IT'S PROBABLY MEMORIAL DAY WEEKEND IS PROBABLY ALL RIGHT.
SO WHEN IS OUR MAY MEETING? THE 18TH.
MEMORIAL DAY'S THE 25TH THIS YEAR.
SO UNLESS I THINK PRETTY MUCH WE ARE GOING TO DO THE SAME SIGNS, THE SAME QR CODE, UH, THAT WE DID LAST YEAR.
YOU WANT THE SAME CATEGORIES? WE DIDN'T, THAT'S THE QUESTION APARTMENT.
SO I THINK WE'LL NEED TO DO MAYBE SOME LEGWORK GETTING THE WORD OUT TO APARTMENT.
DO WE WANT TO DECIDE? I SAID THE COMPLEX OR SOMEBODY'S BALCONY OR, THAT'S THE PART I THINK BALCONY BEAUTY IS WHAT I WAS EXPECTING.
I THINK THAT THAT'S SO THAT MAYBE WE WEREN'T CLEAR ABOUT WELL BUT YOU KNOW, I DO LIKE TO SEE SOME OF THESE COMPLEXES PUT OUT.
NICE GARDEN OUT IN FRONT OR LANDSCAPING, THAT KIND OF THING.
AND UH, I USED TO WORK FOR A, UH, CHAIN OF SENIOR LIVING CENTERS WHERE WE GOT THE RESIDENTS INVOLVED, UH, DOING, PUTTING THE, UH, FLOWER GARDENS OUT.
SO, SO I CAN TAKE, UM, I CAN VOLUNTEER TO DO SOME COLD CALLING 'CAUSE YOU MIGHT BE SHOCKED TO LEARN I'M NOT SHY.
AND ONCE WE HAVE THAT INFORMATION READY TO GO AND WHAT THE NOMINATION IS, I'LL JUST CALL A COUPLE OF THE, THE, YOU KNOW, APARTMENT MANAGERS AND SAY, HEY, TELL YOUR PEOPLE AND DO SOME EMAILING.
SO YEAH, LAST YEAR THE ONE THING I ALSO WANTED TO ASK, 'CAUSE I'LL BUILD THE FORM, IS WE JUST HAD PEOPLE NOMINATE HOMES AND THEN WE KIND OF PLACED THEM INTO THE CATEGORY LIKE, OOH, THAT'S GORGEOUS GREEN, OH THAT'S, YOU KNOW, WHATEVER.
DO WE WANNA PUT THE CATEGORIES ON THERE AND HAVE PEOPLE NOMINATE FOR A ATE CATEGORY FOR A CATEGORY? I THINK THAT'S, I MEAN, THAT'S AN OPTION.
WHY NOT? AND I MEAN, I GUESS WE MAY END UP WITH A SUCH A GORGEOUS GREEN, BUT AS LONG AS WE STILL HAVE THE RIGHT TO DO WHAT WE DID IN OUR MEETING, WHICH WAS SAY, OH, I REALLY LIKE THIS ONE.
IT DOESN'T WIN FOR THIS, BUT NOBODY, I DON'T LIKE ANYBODY OVER HERE.
AND LIKE, WE CAN MOVE THEM AROUND OURSELVES.
WE CAN MAKE IT A MULTI-SELECT TOO.
SO SOMEBODY COULD BE NOMINATED FOR YEAH, I, THAT IDEA.
I DO LOVE THE PICTURES OF THEM, INCLUDING THE PICTURES.
[00:45:01]
WAS A WAY THAT WE COULD CAPTURE NAMES AND PHONE NUMBERS, BECAUSE THAT'S BEEN OUR BIGGEST PROBLEM IS THAT BASICALLY WE DON'T, WE DON'T KNOW WHO THESE PEOPLE ARE.WE HAD TO CONTACT THEM NOW, BUT A LOT OF THEM ARE NOMINATED BLINDLY.
I MEAN, SOMEBODY DRIVES BY A HOUSE AND THEY GO OH YEAH, AND THEY NOMINATE 'EM, WHICH IS FINE.
UM, BUT MAYBE WE WANNA ADD SOMETHING TO THE APPLICATION.
IF YOU HAVE CONTACT INFORMATION FOR THIS OWNER, PLEASE PROVIDE IT.
LIKE AN OPTIONAL, UM, JUST BECAUSE THEY MAY, THEY MAY BE NOMINATING THEIR MOM OR YOU KNOW, BROTHER OR SISTER OR SOMETHING THAT THEY DO HAVE CONTACT INFORMATION OR A NEIGHBOR.
AND I THINK GENERALLY IT IS A NEIGHBOR, YOU KNOW, A LOT OF TIMES.
BUT YOU KNOW, THAT WOULD HELP US A LITTLE BIT BECAUSE BASICALLY WHAT I ENDED UP DOING WAS GOING TO TAX RECORDS AND GETTING NAMES, YOU KNOW, ON PROPERTY RECORDS, BUT THAT'S NOT ALWAYS GONNA BE THE PERSON THAT'S LIVING THERE.
SO I MEAN, I, THAT'S JUST A SUGGEST AND WE CAN HASH ALL THAT OUT WHEN WE GET DOWN TO THE, THE NITTY GRITTY ON IT.
BUT, AND POTENTIALLY WHEN WE DROP OFF THE SIGN WITH THE LETTER, WE CAN SAY, HEY, PLEASE CONTACT OUR OFFICE WITH YOUR CONTACT INFORMATION TOO.
COULD DO IT THAT WAY AND HAVE THE PERSON PROVIDE IT.
BUT WE HAVEN'T DONE ANY OF THAT IN THE PAST AND I REALLY DON'T KNOW HOW ALL THIS INFORMATION WAS CAPTURED BEFORE.
I THINK THIS IS THE FIRST YEAR I'VE HAD TO DO THE RESEARCH ON IT.
SO, UM, I CAN ADD AN OPTIONAL, IF YOU KNOW THIS PERSON'S NAME AND PHONE NUMBER, PLEASE GIVE IT TO US KIND OF FIELD.
BUT THAT, YEAH, I MEAN, BUT WE CAN, WE CAN HASH THAT OUT AT OUR NEXT MEETING.
BUT NONETHELESS, THAT WAS THE ONLY THING THAT I THINK KIND OF WENT AWRY LAST TIME, KNOWING WHO THE WINNERS ARE AND I CAN WORK WITH SHER'S CHAMPION TO GET IT ALL IRONED OUT IF NOBODY ELSE HAS ANY FEEDBACK, SUGGESTIONS, REQUESTS.
WHAT WERE THE OTHER CATEGORIES THAT WE DID LAST YEAR? WE HAD SMALL BUSINESS, LARGE BUSINESS, HISTORIC HUBER POLLINATOR, BE FRIENDLY, GORGEOUS GREEN MAYOR'S CHOICE, WHICH THE MAYOR CHOOSES.
AND THEN WE DID TRY TO GET THE APARTMENT.
UM, BUT NO ONE, THERE WAS REALLY NO, NONE SUBMITTED.
SO I, WE HAD DIFFICULTY GETTING THE MAYOR TO MAKE A SELECTION LAST YEAR AND IT WAS VERY LATE AND IT, IT WAS KIND OF, DO WE WANNA JUST LET GO OF THE MAYOR'S CHOICE OR LET ME HOUND HIM ONE MORE YEAR.
HUH? LET ME HOUND HIM ONE MORE YEAR.
I CERTAINLY LIKE THE IDEA OF A MAYOR'S CHOICE.
IT UM, WELL ORIGINALLY WHEN WE PICKED THAT, WE PICKED THE MAYOR'S CHOICE
SO LAST YEAR IT TOOK US, UH, A FEW WEEKS TO TRY TO GET THAT OUT OF HIM.
SO MAYBE, I THINK, I THINK THIS YEAR I MIGHT SEND HIM THE SUBMISSIONS EARLY FIRST IF THAT WOULD BE OKAY WITH THE BOARD.
AND THEN HE CHOOSES HIS RATHER THAN YOU GUYS MAKING A RECOMMENDATION OF LIKE, OH, THIS IS THE ONE YOU SHOULD CHOOSE MAYOR.
BECAUSE THEN IF, YOU KNOW, IF HE DISAGREES, THEN HE HAS TO, YOU KNOW, DISAGREE WITH THE ONE THAT YOU GUYS LIKED AND SOME POOR HOMEOWNER OUT THERE IS OKAY.
SO IF THAT WOULD BE OKAY WITH YOU GUYS, WE COULD SEND IT TO HIM FIRST.
YEAH, I THINK THAT'S EFFICIENT.
WE, SORRY, I HAD ANOTHER IDEA FOR A CATEGORY.
IF WE'RE GETTING TO TOO MANY CATEGORIES WHEN WE WANT TO TRY TO WEASEL IT IN FOR THE AMERICA TWO 50, I THOUGHT IT WOULD BE COOL TO DO A RED, WHITE AND BEAUTIFUL WHERE THAT PEOPLE WHO HAVE, THAT'D BE NICE FLAGS OR RED, WHITE AND BLUE FLOWERS.
SOMETHING, SOMETHING THAT FITS INTO THE AMERICA TWO 50 THEME.
AND IT CAN ALSO BE THE OHIO FLAG DOESN'T HAVE TO BE ALL, ALL US HOORAH CAN ALSO BE, YOU KNOW, RED, WHITE, AND BEAUTIFUL.
AND I, I LIKE THAT AS WELL A LOT.
IS IT BEAUTIFUL OR BEAUTIFUL? RED, WHITE AND BEAUTIFUL.
I THINK RED, WHITE AND BEAUTIFUL.
UNLESS YOU WANT IT TO BE BEAUTIFUL.
WELL WE COULD TRADEMARK THE BLU, IT'S TRUE
NOW CHERYL IS OUR CHAMPION AND SO WHAT WE GENERALLY DO IS WE ALLOW OUR CHAMPION TO WORK DIRECTLY WITH OUR PARKS AND RECREATION REPRESENTATIVE TO KIND OF FLESH OUT ALL OF THE MINOR DETAILS.
UH, DO I HAVE A MOTION TO GIVE THAT AUTHORITY YET AGAIN THIS YEAR TO CHERYL.
[00:50:01]
APPRECIATE THAT.UM, AS A COMMISSION, WE WORK TOGETHER AND THEN WHEN WE COME TO OUR PROJECTS, WE CAN EMPOWER A PERSON TO TAKE THE LEAD AND THEN COME BACK TO THIS COMMISSION WITH HERE ARE THE DETAILS AND THEN HEAR THE BIG DECISIONS THAT ARE TO BE MADE.
AND JOE, I JUST KIND OF GO THROUGH THAT FOR YOU.
AS YOU KNOW, THIS IS YOUR FIRST TIME AS WE'RE LOOKING AT PROJECTS.
IF YOU'VE GOT QUESTIONS ABOUT, HEY, I HAVE AN IDEA AND THAT, THAT PORTION MOVED REALLY FAST, LET ME INTRODUCE YOU TO CHERYL.
FEEL FREE TO KIND OF CHECK IN AND ASK THOSE QUESTIONS.
AND THEN LOOKING AHEAD TO THE SHARK TANK, WHEN YOU'RE COMING WITH AN IDEA, IF THIS COMMISSION CHAMPIONS AN IDEA, BE PREPARED FOR YOU TO BE THAT CHAMPION.
MAY I, MAY I HAVE PERMISSION TO CIRCLE BACK REAL QUICK A QUESTION ABOUT THE ART SHOW.
SCOUTS ARE IN, SCOUTS ARE IN
SO I WILL BE THERE AS, UH, THE TROOP REPRESENTATIVE WITH TWO TO THREE SCOUTS AND WE WILL TAKE CARE OF THE, YOU KNOW, THEY'LL BUY THEIR STUFF, YOU KNOW, CHIPS, POP WATER, SO THEY WILL TAKE CARE OF THAT.
THEY THOUGHT IT WAS A GOOD OPPORTUNITY TO BE IN THE COMMUNITY, SO, AND MAKE A FEW BUCKS FOR THE, FOR THEIR, UH, SUMMER CAMP TRIPS.
THANK YOU FOR THE OPPORTUNITY.
UM, BEFORE WE GO TO THE VOLUNTEER REQUEST, I HAVE ONE ADDITIONAL LIKE B12 ITEM, LIKE, YOU KNOW, THE EXTRA THAT I'M GONNA SNEAK IN, IN THE LAST COUPLE MONTHS WHERE I WAS OUT FROM THIS MEETING, I WAS STILL WORKING ON BEHALF OF THE COMMISSION.
AND JUST TO LET YOU KNOW, IN SOME FUTURE MEETINGS, UH, THE CITY MANAGER AND, UH, HIS, HIS SIDEKICKS MAY COME AND VISIT US.
I HAD SOME LUNCH WITH THEM AND I WENT TO A CITY COUNCIL MEETING AND REALIZED I DIDN'T KNOW THE CITY MANAGER.
AND SO I SENT AN EMAIL AND I SAID, HEY, CAN WE HAVE LUNCH? I'D LIKE TO, IF I'M CHAIRING A COMMISSION, I WOULD LIKE TO UNDERSTAND AS A CITY MANAGER HOW YOU THINK ABOUT YOUR ROLE AND HOW I CAN HELP GUIDE THE COMMISSION IN BRINGING THAT VISION FURTHER AND FORWARD.
AND OF COURSE THEY'RE LIKE, HECK YEAH.
SO I WANTED TO ENCOURAGE MEMBERS OF THIS COMMISSION TO YOU YOURSELVES.
IF YOU DON'T KNOW OUR CITY MANAGER, IF YOU DON'T KNOW YOUR WARD REPRESENTATIVE, IF YOU AREN'T, IF YOU HAVEN'T DONE THAT, PLEASE SEND AN EMAIL, REACH OUT AND INVITE THEM TO LUNCH, INVITE 'EM TO HAPPY HOUR, HAVE DINNER, GO FOR COFFEE HERE AT ONE OF OUR FABULOUS HUBER HEIGHTS, UH, RECEPTIONS OR LOCATIONS.
BUT I GOT SO MUCH OUT OF THAT MEETING, MEETING THE PEOPLE WHO DO THE WORK IN THIS ROOM.
I WANTED TO ENCOURAGE EACH OF YOU TO DO THE SAME.
WHAT YOU GOT FOR US, SARAH AND MOLLY? WELL, I THINK THAT THE ART SHOW WE'RE GOOD NOW.
EVERYBODY KNOWS WHEN THEY'RE COMING, RIGHT? SO THEN, UM, I JUST WANTED TO PUT A PLUG OUT THERE THAT WE ARE GETTING READY TO GET INTO THE FULL SWING OF THE SUMMER SEASON AND WE ARE ALWAYS IN NEED OF VOLUNTEERS.
SO WE WILL KEEP YOU ON OUR EMAIL LIST IF YOU'RE OKAY WITH THAT, FOR MOLLY TO SEND OUT, UM, OPPORTUNITIES OR YOU MIGHT HEAR SOME FROM ME.
AND ESPECIALLY I WANTED TO PLUG THE TWO 50TH INITIATIVES OF STAR SPANGLED HEIGHTS AND THE HERITAGE PICNIC THAT WILL TAKE PLACE AT THIS LOCATION BOTH HAPPENING IN JULY.
WE WILL NEED A LOT OF VOLUNTEERS FOR BOTH OF THOSE.
UM, AND SO WE HOPE THAT WE CAN SEND YOU THAT INFORMATION AND IF YOU'RE ABLE, PLEASE SIGN UP.
WE KNOW RIGHT NOW THAT WE ARE, UM, HAVING A MORE ROBUST SECURITY OPERATION AT STAR-SPANGLED HEIGHTS AND STAFF WILL LIKELY BE PREOCCUPIED WITH GATES AND OPERATIONAL ASPECTS.
AND SO WE REALLY DO NEED THE SMILING FACES OF OUR COMMISSION MEMBERS IN OUR CITY TENTS, GIVING OUT INFO AND FREEBIES AND UM, YOU KNOW, RED, WHITE AND BLUE SWAG THAT WE'RE GONNA HOOK YOU ALL UP WITH.
SO YOU GET TO DO ALL OF THE FUN KIND OF FIELD MARKETING, FACE OF THE CITY KIND OF STUFF.

SO HOPEFULLY YOU GUYS CAN JUST KEEP AN EYE ON YOUR EMAILS, PUTTING THE PARADE TOGETHER AND PARADE.
