[1. Call Meeting To Order/Roll Call:]
COUNCIL.I HOPE EVERYBODY'S DOING WELL.
AS YOU CAN SEE, I'M ON LOCATION HERE AND BRIGHT AND SUNNY HUBER HEIGHTS AT THE CORNER OF
TRAFFIC IS A LITTLE BIT LIGHT, BUT UH, EVERYTHING'S MOVING SAFELY.
[ City Manager Report]
JUST A COUPLE OF COMMENTS FOR THIS EVENING.UM, UH, FIRST OF ALL, I, WE DID, WE DID RECEIVE A COUPLE OF CO OR WE DID RECEIVE ONE COMMENT, UH, FROM THE PUBLIC MEETING ADDRESS AND UH, I'LL JUST CONSIDER THAT AS PART OF THE UPDATE THERE.
THE INQUIRY WAS REGARDING THE STATUS OF THE HEATHER MEIR, UH, SUBDIVISION, UH, AS WELL AS THE PROPOSED TIF THAT WAS DISCUSSED.
UM, AS WE CONTINUE TO GET INFORMATION REGARDING THE FINALIZATION OF THAT DEVELOPMENT PLAN, UH, THE DETAILED PLAN WILL INCLUDE COST ESTIMATES VALUE, UH, AND THE FINAL APPROVED PLAN SO THAT WE CAN MAKE THOSE DETERMINATIONS.
UM, THAT'S PART OF THE NECESSARY ELEMENTS OF CREATING THE TIF PROCESS OR THE RESIDENTIAL IMPROVEMENT DISTRICT PROCESS.
SO AS THAT DEVELOPMENT, UM, COMPLETES THROUGH CLOSING OF THE PROPERTY AND THROUGH SUBMISSION OF THAT DETAILED PLAN, WE'LL BE ABLE TO GET THOSE CALCULATIONS IN AND BEGIN THE PROCESS OF THAT.
SO, UH, THAT IS STILL FORTHCOMING BASED ON THE INFORMATION RELATIVE TO THAT DEVELOPMENT.
AND, UH, WE WILL KEEP YOU POSTED.
UM, UH, IN ADDITION, UH, AS, UM, AS ALL AS COUNCIL HAS, UH, HAS NOTED THINGS STILL, UH, STILL GO ON AS, AS NORMAL.
WE'VE HAD SOME, UH, ADDITIONAL CHANGES REGARDING THE STATE HOME ORDERS THAT WERE, THAT WE'RE MANAGING.
UH, THE RESIDENTS HAVE, UM, UH, I I BELIEVE COME ACCUSTOMED TO SOME OF THE NEW PROCESSES REGARDING CONCERNS OF EITHER BUSINESSES BEING OPEN, UH, NEIGHBORS GATHERING, ETC.
WE'VE RECEIVED SOME CALLS AND COMPLAINTS, BUT THERE'S A PROCESS TO GET THAT FORWARDED TO THE DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH.
UH, THEY'VE BEEN DOING A PRETTY GOOD JOB OF KEEPING UP ON THAT.
SO WE STILL ENCOURAGE ANYBODY WHO'S GOT ISSUES, YOU CAN CONTACT THE DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH, UH, AND OR CONTACT US.
BUT WE WILL, UM, UH, WE ARE NOT THE AUTHORITY TO MAKE THOSE DETERMINATIONS, BUT WE DO MAKE SURE TO FORWARD ANY OF THEM.
UH, ANOTHER QUICK UPDATE, OUR BULK PICKUP OR DUMPSTER LOCATION.
UH, WE THOUGHT THAT MAYBE ONCE A WEEK OR SO WE MIGHT HAVE TO EMPTY IT.
SO, AND SO PEOPLE ARE, UH, ARE CERTAINLY MAKING USE OF THAT.
WE'RE REALLY HAPPY THAT, UH, UM, UH, THE REPUBLIC WAS WILLING TO PROVIDE THAT TO US.
UH, I THINK THE COMMUNITY IS MAKING GOOD USE.
UH, I BELIEVE OVER THE WEEKEND WE EVEN HAD TWO OF THEM THERE JUST TO MAKE SURE TO COVER FOR THE, UM, THE AMOUNT OF INCREASED, UH, UH, DUMPING AND FLOATED THAT.
SO, UM, THAT'S GOING VERY WELL.
WE WILL CONTINUE UPDATING INFORMATION AS WE GET IT, AS THINGS CHANGE.
BUT OTHER THAN THAT, EVERYTHING IS, UM, STILL GOING ON IS AS NORMAL.
THE HARSHMAN VILLE WATER MAIN PROJECT IS, UM, STILL BEING COMPLETED.
THEY'RE FINISHING UP ALL THE SERVICE LINES.
UH, THEY SHOULD BE BACKFILLING AND GETTING THE FINALIZATION OF THAT SOON.
AND THEN AS SOON AS, UH, THE ASPHALT DISORDER, WE'LL BE ABLE TO FINISH AND GET THE, UM, UH, COMPLETE OVERLAY OF THE ROAD DONE.
UM, SOMETHING'S GOING ON HERE.
MAYBE I DID ANYWAYS, UH, THAT'S ABOUT ALL THAT I HAD FOR THIS EVENING.
I WILL, UH, UM, SOMEBODY ELSE IS, UM, GOT CONTROL OF THE MEETING RIGHT NOW.
IT LOOKS LIKE, UH, YES, I WOULD IF I WERE YOU, UH, REQUEST CONTROL AND TAKE THAT.
I HAVE A COUPLE OF QUESTIONS FOR ROB.
WHOEVER HAS CONTROL OF THE MEETING NEEDS TO ALLOW THE MAYOR TO TAKE BACK CONTROL.
SO WHOEVER JUST CLICKED ALLOW
[00:05:05]
SO JUST CLICK ALLOWJEFF, ARE YOU IN CONTROL YET? THERE YOU GO.
A COUPLE OF QUESTIONS ON THE HEAD, THE MIRROR.
WHAT'S THE STATUS ON THAT ORPHAN LOT THERE? DO YOU KNOW? I DO NOT.
UM, AND IS THERE ANY PROJECTION ON WHEN THE UH, UH, DEVELOPMENT PLANS GOING TO GO? THE PLANNING COMMISSION, THE FINAL DEVELOPMENT PLAN? UM, I CAN, UH, FIND THAT OUT.
UH, I BELIEVE THEY WERE WAITING FOR THEIR DESIGN.
THEY MADE SOME CHANGES, UM, BASED ON SOME OF THE, UH, INPUT AT THE PLANNING COMMISSION AND FROM THEIR BASIC TO THEIR DETAIL.
AND I THINK WE'RE JUST WAITING ON THAT.
SO I WILL, I WILL CHECK TOMORROW TO SEE IF WE HAVE ANY INFORMATION.
IT WAS JUST ON THEM TO GET THAT SUBMITTED.
SO, UM, I'M NOT SURE WHAT THEIR EXACT TIMELINE WAS.
AND THE LAST THING I WANTED TO ASK YOU IS ON THE STREET AND IN A SIDEWALK IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM WORK, GETTING READY TO AWARD THE CONTRACT WITH THE CORONA VIRUS SITUATION WITH THAT PROGRAM WHERE THE PERMITS STILL GO ON? YES.
I'VE GOT A QUICK ONE FOR, UH, ROB.
ANYWAY, EVERYTHING'S
UH, IN FACT, THERE ARE, UM, UH, WE'RE CREATING A PUBLICATION NOW JUST TO KIND OF GIVE AN UPDATE.
UM, WE'RE STILL LOOKING AT SOMETIME IN THE SUMMER.
UH, WE WANT TO MAKE SURE TO PROVIDE EDUCATION TO THE COMMUNITY AS TO REALLY WHAT THAT IS AND IN FACT, UH, UM, NOT TO HAVE A SPOILER ALERT, BUT THAT'S GOING TO BE OUR FEATURE ARTICLE FOR THE NEXT DAYTON DAILY NEWS FEATURE.
UH, JUST TO KIND OF HAVE WHAT ALL IS THE, A WATER SOFTENING PROJECT.
UM, THE, THE BUILDING IS, YOU KNOW, UNDER ROOF AND PRETTY MUCH, UM, YOU KNOW, COMPLETE.
UH, THEY'RE LITERALLY JUST HOOKING UP SYSTEMS AND THEY, UM, THEY SHOULD BE BEGIN TESTING HERE IN THE NEXT COUPLE OF MONTHS AND GETTING THINGS READY TO ROLL OUT.
SO ALL THINGS ARE, UM, REALLY, I HATE TO SAY IT, BUT KIND OF AHEAD OF SCHEDULE AND UH, AND GOING VERY, VERY, VERY WELL.
YEAH, I HAVE A QUICK QUESTION.
UM, SO I THINK YOU'VE MENTIONED THIS IN THE PAST TO DO WITH THE REPUBLIC AND CAUSE I KNOW THAT THEY'RE NOT PICKING UP ANYTHING.
UM, ARE RESIDENTS ABLE TO GET A SECOND CAN FROM REPUBLIC? YES, I BELIEVE THAT THE PROVISION OF THE AGREEMENT DOES HAVE THAT.
UM, I WILL, UM, UH, I'LL DOUBLE CHECK WITH REPUBLIC ON THAT AND UH, AND EMAIL YOU TOMORROW.
I KNOW ONE OF THE OTHER THINGS THAT WE'RE WORKING OUT IS, UH, THE FACT THAT UM, NOT EVERYBODY HAS CANS AND EVEN THOUGH THEY'RE RESTRICTING, UM, TO, TO BAGS AND STUFF OUTSIDE OF CARDS.
UH, BUT, UH, I KNOW THE VISION OF THE AGREEMENT DOES ALLOW FOR THAT, BUT UNDER THESE EMERGENCY OPERATION CONDITIONS, WE'LL MAKE SURE AND I'LL, UM, I'LL GET THAT INFORMATION BACK TO YOU.
[00:11:08]
TONY.OR I'M SAYING AS BEING BROADCAST IN THE LAST YEAR, PEOPLE THINK THAT'S A GOOD THING.
ALL THESE ENDED UP GETTING, I DON'T ALWAYS END UP GETTING RED.
I THINK, I THINK WE'VE GOT A FIXED, DIDN'T DO IT.
THE, THE, THE PROBLEM WASN'T ANY OF YOU, IT WAS, UM, THE, THE SOMETHING IN THE SYSTEM HAD THE GLOBAL MUDO IN HERE FROM THE DIOCESE.
SO THE MICROPHONES HERE WEREN'T BEING BROADCASTED OUT INTO THE LIVE STREAM.
SO, UH, WITH, I DID HAVE JUST A POINT OF CLARIFICATION.
I JUST WANTED TO HAVE A BRIEF DISCUSSION WITH, UH, ROBIN BELL AND WHILE EVERYONE WAS HERE.
I THINK ALL OF US, AND PROBABLY SOME OF YOU ARE GETTING EMAILS TOO FROM, FROM CERTAIN RESIDENTS.
UM, YOU HAVE DIFFERENT RESIDENTS ALL OVER THE CITY WORRIED AND CONCERNED ABOUT SOME BUSINESSES THAT THEY BELIEVE ARE NONESSENTIAL AND UM, WANTING US TO, YOU KNOW, KINDA MESSAGES I'M GETTING IS ASKING FOR THE CITY FOR US TO ACTUALLY SHUT THOSE BUSINESSES DOWN.
AND, AND THAT'S BEEN A BIG POINT OF CONVERSATION BETWEEN MR SHOWRUNNER OVER THE PAST TWO WEEKS.
UM, PROBABLY BEEN THREE SINCE, SINCE THE GOVERNOR'S ORDERS.
AND I THINK WHAT ONE NEEDS TO KNOW.
AND I THINK JUST FROM A COUNCIL PERSPECTIVE, IF YOU RECEIVE THOSE EMAILS OR PEOPLE THAT YOU TALK TO, OR IF PEOPLE ARE MESSAGING YOU, I HATE TO MAKE IT SOUND THIS WAY, BUT, BUT THEN THE ORDERS THAT THE GOVERNOR IS GIVEN THERE, THERE'S A STAY AT HOME ORDER, BUT THERE'S JUST NO ENFORCEMENT BEHIND ANY OF THOSE ORDERS, WHICH IN ESSENCE QUITE FRANKLY, MAKE SOME SUGGESTIONS, NOT ACTUAL ORDERS.
THERE'S NOTHING THAT WE CAN DO AS A CITY FROM THOSE BUSINESSES PERSPECTIVE.
YOU KNOW, WE'RE NOT GOING TO BE DRIVING AROUND THE CITY CITING PEOPLE WHEN WE SEE MORE THAN 10 PEOPLE TOGETHER.
WE'VE HAD PEOPLE CALL AND FILE COMPLAINTS THAT THEIR NEIGHBORS ARE GETTING TOGETHER AND THERE'S PEOPLE INSIDE OF A, YOU KNOW, THERE'S 15 OR 20 PEOPLE INSIDE OF THE HOUSE.
THERE'S JUST NOTHING THAT WE CAN DO.
AND I THINK ALL OF YOU, UH, NEED TO BE ARMED WITH THAT INFORMATION IF PEOPLE ARE ASKING THOSE QUESTIONS.
BECAUSE WITHOUT SUPPORT FROM THE STATE LEVEL ON WHAT WE WOULD BE OR NOT BE ALLOWED TO DO IN TERMS OF ENFORCING ANYTHING, THAT JUST DOESN'T EXIST.
AND WE CAN'T BE IN A SITUATION WHERE WE'RE HAVING, UH, OUR POLICE OR, OR ANY KIND OF SITUATION WHERE THERE'S JUST NO SUPPORT FOR ANY, FOR ANYTHING TO ENFORCE THOSE ORDERS.
SO I KNOW I HAVE USED THAT LANGUAGE.
I'VE TOLD PEOPLE, LOOK, AS OF RIGHT NOW, THERE'S NO SUPPORT FOR ANYTHING.
UH, WHICH MEANS WHAT GOVERNOR DEWINE HAS STATED, UH, ARE THINGS THAT WE ALL SHOULD BE RESPONSIBLE AND FOLLOW, BUT THEY, TO THIS POINT, THEY'RE REALLY SUGGESTIONS.
UH, THEY'RE NOT ORDERS BECAUSE IF SOMEONE DOESN'T FOLLOW THOSE ORDERS, THERE'S ANY NEED TO AS A CITY.
NOW, WHEN IT COMES TO THE BUSINESS AS ROB, YOU HAD MENTIONED EARLIER IN YOUR UPDATE, UM, REGARDING SOME OF THE BUSINESSES I GUESS, AND IF YOU HAVE A COMPLAINT, SO IF YOU'RE A RESIDENT, YOU'RE LISTENING AND YOU SEE, UH, A BUSINESS THAT YOU THINK IS, UM, NOT FOLLOWING THE ORDER, NOT BEING RESPONSIBLE, THEN CERTAINLY THE, THE HEALTH DEPARTMENT IS WHO IS INVESTIGATING THOSE BUSINESSES.
[00:15:01]
BUT IF, IF THE EASIER ROUTE FOR YOU AS A CITIZEN IS TO CONTACT US, THEN WE CAN CONTACT THE HEALTH DEPARTMENT ON YOUR BEHALF IF YOU SEE SOMETHING.BUT REALLY IT'S A HEALTH DEPARTMENT ISSUE WHEN IT COMES TO MANAGING WHAT THOSE BUSINESSES DO AND DON'T DO.
SO OF COURSE ANYONE HERE AT THE CITY IS MORE THAN WILLING TO HELP AND DO WHATEVER WE CAN DO.
BUT WE DON'T HAVE THE ABILITY TO GO INTO A BUSINESS AND TELL THEM THAT HE HAVE TO CLOSE.
AND I KNOW, AGAIN, I'VE JUST GOTTEN MULTIPLE, MULTIPLE EMAILS THAT PEOPLE REQUESTING THAT ACTION BE TAKEN BY THE CITY.
AND SO FOR ANY OF YOU WHO ARE GETTING THE SAME MESSAGES, THAT IS WHAT I WOULD ADVISE YOU SAID MR SCHOMER.
IS THERE ANYTHING ABOVE AND BEYOND THAT? WE DO ROLL.
WE DO HAVE, UH, SOME PARKS IN THE CITY.
SO WE HAVE CLOSED DOWN ALL OF OUR PARKS, NOT, I'M SORRY, I'M CLOSING THE PARKS THAT CLOSED ON THE PLAYGROUND EQUIPMENT AND OUR PARKS.
BUT THERE ARE SOME PARKS IN HLAS, UM, WHERE THEY HAVE NOT TAKEN ACTION AND I'M STILL SEEING PEOPLE COMPLAIN.
ALSO, I'M GETTING MESSAGES, COMPLAINTS, UM, ABOUT SOME SPECIFIC PARTS IN PLAYGROUNDS, MORE PLAYGROUNDS INSIDE THE PARKS THAT ARE STILL OPEN AND KIDS ARE PLAYING ON PLAYING BASKETBALL.
AGAIN, IF YOU'RE, IF YOU'RE A RESIDENT, YOU'RE WATCHING THIS, THAT'S SOMETHING THAT YOU NEED TO TAKE UP WITH THE HOA.
OUR LOCAL POLICE DEPARTMENT, THAT'S NOT A PUBLIC PLACE.
WE HAVE ABSOLUTELY ZERO SAVINGS.
IT COMES TO WHAT GOES ON IN A SPECIFIC HOMEOWNER ASSOCIATION AND A PRIVATE DEVELOPMENT IN FRANKLIN PARK.
IF ANY OF ELSE, IF ANYBODY ELSE'S GETTING QUESTIONS REGARDING THAT, THAT'S THE BEST ADVICE I COULD GIVE YOU TO TELL THEM IF YOU'RE GETTING THOSE KINDS OF MESSAGES AND THE COMPLAINTS.
ROB, ANYTHING TO ADD OR CORRECT ME IF I SAID ANYTHING OUT OF TURN THERE? NOPE.
UM, THE, UM, PUBLIC HEALTH, UH, MONTGOMERY COUNTY AS ON THEIR WET BITE, A LIST OF BUSINESSES THAT HAVE BEEN REPORTED.
AND AS I MENTIONED EARLIER, WHEN A RESIDENT DOES CALL US, WE DO TAKE ACTION AND IN TERMS OF DOCUMENTING INFORMATION AND PASS IT ON TO THOSE AUTHORITIES.
BUT, UH, YOU'RE ABSOLUTELY CORRECT, WE ARE NOT THE AUTHORITY TO MAKE A DETERMINATION AS TO WHETHER A BUSINESS IS ESSENTIAL OR NOT.
UH, THAT IS, UH, LEFT UP THROUGH THE DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND THE INTERPRETATION OF, OF THAT ORDER.
IF THEY DO MAKE THAT DETERMINATION, THEY WILL ORDER BUSINESS CLOSED.
AND IF THAT BUSINESS IS NOT CLOSED, THEN THERE ARE SANCTIONS THAT THEY COULD INITIATE THAT MAY UP TO AND INCLUDE EVOLVEMENT FROM US LOCALLY.
BUT AGAIN, THAT DETERMINATION IS MADE BY THEM.
SO IF ANYBODY DOES HAVE A QUESTION AS TO WHETHER A BUSINESS HAS BEEN REPORTED OR NOT, THE UM, PUBLIC HEALTH, UH, P H D M C.
ORG, UH, RIGHT ON THE FRONT PAGE OF THEIR COVERT 19 WEBSITE PAGE, UH, HAS WITH BUSINESSES THAT HAVE BEEN REPORTED AS WELL AS A LIST OF BUSINESSES THAT HAVE BEEN ORDERED CLOTHES.
SO, UH, THAT MIGHT, UM, ASSIST SOMEBODY TO FIND OUT WHETHER OR NOT A BUSINESS IS BEING LOOKED INTO OR NOT.
AND, UM, WE HAD CONTACTED WITH THE HEALTH DEPARTMENT YESTERDAY AND WE ARE LOOKING AT WAYS THAT WE CAN INTEGRATE A LITTLE BIT MORE FLOW AND SHARING OF THAT INFORMATION INTO OUR INVOLVEMENT IN THE PRE-REVIEW AND SCREENING OF THOSE ISSUES OR COMPLAINTS.
UH, SO THAT WE CAN ANSWER TO OUR RIGHTS OR OUR RESIDENT CONCERNS.
SO, UH, LISTEN TO OUR CURRENT ADVICE, THE CORONAVIRUS TAB ON OUR, ON OUR WEBSITE, THE LIST OF THE, OF THE BUSINESSES UNDER INVESTIGATION.
PARDON? YES, WE, WE COULD, WE COULD UH, EASILY DO THAT CAUSE IT'S JUST A LINK TO THEIR PAGE SO WE CAN CREATE A VALUE FOR THAT.
BLINK ON OUR CHROME DEVICE CROONERS TAB.
OH, ARE THERE ANY OTHER QUESTIONS OR IN THE DISCUSSION AROUND THAT HAS IT ANYBODY ELSE, UM, HAD THOSE ISSUES OR ANYBODY ELSE, UH, MESSAGING OR EMAILING YOU REGARDING, UH, PARKS AND BUSINESSES AND THINGS LIKE THAT? MR MAYOR? YES, MR SHAWL.
I HAVE HAD THOSE CONCERNS AND I HAVE ADDRESSED THEM APPROPRIATELY TO THE FORMAT IN WHICH YOU HAD PROVIDED.
UM, I ADDITIONALLY, WHILE WE WERE ON THE TOPIC, I WANT HER TO THINK I'M MR SCHOMER FOR THE RECENT RESPONSE, UH, REGARDING THE FUNDING AND THE DIFFERENT AVENUES OF MOVING FORWARD THAT, UH, THAT, UH, WE'RE LOOKING INTO.
WELL, UH, WE, WE TRY TO KEEP UP TO DATE, ESPECIALLY THERE'S NEW INTERPRETATIONS EVERY DAY OF ADDITIONAL SBA FUNDING, UH, LOAN APPLICATIONS.
UH, I KNOW I'VE SPOKEN TO PROBABLY NO LESS THAN SIX OF OUR LOCAL BUSINESSES.
UM, UH, YOU KNOW, LOCAL BUSINESSES, NOT MAJOR CHAINS THAT HAVE MADE APPLICATIONS, UH, REGARDING
[00:20:01]
SOME OF THOSE LOANS AND FUNDS TO HELP SUSTAIN THEIR OPERATION DURING THIS GAP.SO WE WILL, UH, WE WILL CONTINUE TO, UH, UH, TO DO THAT AND KEEP UP TO DATE AND KNOWLEDGEABLE ON ALL THOSE DIFFERENT THINGS.
UM, AND MR MAYOR, I'M SORRY, I CERTAINLY DON'T WANT TO PROLONG WHAT APPEARS TO BE A VERY SHORT MEETING AGENDA, BUT THERE WAS ONE OTHER TOPIC, UM, THAT I DID THAT I WAS REMISS IN MENTIONING THAT I DEDICATED THAT I WOULD AN UPDATE ON OUR ACQUISITION OF THE AMERICAN SHOPPING CENTER.
UM, AS YOU KNOW, UH, AND I ANNOUNCED THAT, UH, WE DID CLOSE ON THE PROPERTY.
WE HAVE, UH, REACHED OUT AND, AND, AND ENGAGED ALL OF THE TENANTS.
UH, WE'RE IN THE PROCESS OF WORKING OUT THE TRANSITIONS.
UH, OF COURSE A COUPLE OF TENANTS ARE THOSE THAT HAVE APPLIED FOR SOME OF THOSE LOANS TO CONTINUE, UH, THEIR OPERATIONS.
BUT, UH, WE HAVE GIVEN NOTICE THAT, UM, UM, THAT WE WILL NOT BE RENEWING ANY LEASES, UH, TO THOSE TENANTS, UH, AS THE TERMS RUN OUT.
AND, UM, IT LOOKS LIKE, UH, THE TENANTS THAT ARE THERE ARE, ARE MAKING GOOD PROGRESS ON WORKING AT, UH, EITHER MOVING OR RELOCATING AT AN ANOTHER, UH, OPEN.
UM, THINGS ARE, THINGS ARE PROGRESSING WELL WITH THAT.
SO I'LL CONTINUE TO KEEP YOU POSTED AS WE, UH, CONTINUE TO EVALUATE ALL OF THE, UH, ASSIGNMENT OF THOSE LEASES AND WORKING WITH THE, UM, WITH THE EXISTING TENANTS.
ANY OTHER QUESTIONS, COMMENTS FOR ROB HERE DURING, UM, DURING THIS UPDATE? OKAY, I DON'T HEAR ANY.
SO LET'S MOVE ON TO ITEM NUMBER THREE B, WHICH IS OUR SUPPLEMENTAL APPROPRIATIONS.
AND, UH, WE DO HAVE MR. BELL ON THE CONFERENCE THIS EVENING.
SO MR. BELL, JIM BELL, ARE YOU A ON IT? READY? ALL RIGHT, I WILL LOVE, I MEAN, CAN YOU HEAR ME NOW? OH, I'M SORRY.
I GUESS I WAS, I WAS TALKING AND I THOUGHT I WAS ON MUTE CARD.
UH, GOOD EVENING, MAYOR COUNCIL
[ Supplemental Appropriations]
MEMBERS.UH, THE SUPPLEMENTAL APPROPRIATION THAT I HAVE FOR YOU TONIGHT IS A CONTINUATION OF THE ONE THAT WE BEGAN THREE WEEKS AGO, UH, WAS NOT IN THE WORKS.
THE AGENDA DID NOT MAKE IT TO THE COUNCIL AGENDA.
AND SO, UM, THOSE ON THAT MEETING, I'M MOVING FORWARD, UH, WENT OVER THOSE IN DETAIL AND I HAVE TWO NEW ADDITIONS.
ONE WAS IN YOUR PACKET AND ONE WAS EMAILED TO YOU EARLIER TODAY.
THE ONE IN YOUR PACKET WAS 51,000, $250.
UH, THAT WAS A RETURN OF AN ADVANCE.
UH, SO NOW IT'S COMING BACK FROM THE EDGE FUND TO THE GENERAL FUND.
THE GENERAL FUND HAD TEMPORARILY LOANED IT, UH, WHILE WE WERE PAYING OUT, UH, EXPENSES TO THOSE BUSINESSES THAT HAD EDGE GRANTS.
AND NOW WE NEED TO RE THOSE MONIES AS WE GET THEM BACK IN FROM, UH, THE COUNTY.
UH, SO THAT, UH, BASICALLY IS A WASH AS FAR AS A FISCAL IMPACT TO THE BUDGET.
AND THEN THE SECOND ITEM THAT WAS EMAILED OUT TODAY, UH, PART OF THAT, UM, $102,000 THAT IS NEEDED FOR SEVERAL IMPROVEMENTS, UH, IN INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY.
UH, BRANDON PEYTON, UM, NOTIFIED ME THAT THERE IS A NEED FOR 3040 $2 FOR THE TAX SERVER, UH, RE HOSTING FEE THAT WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THOSE DOLLARS THAT HE HAD REQUESTED.
AND SO I'M ASKING ALSO FOR THAT ADDITION AND UH, SINCE THESE HAVE BEEN, UM, ON THE, UM, UH, IN ACUTE SET OF SPEAK FOR THE LAST THREE WEEKS, I WOULD ASK THAT YOU COULD PLEASE, UH, PROVE THOSE ON MONDAY NIGHT AT THE MEETING.
UH, OR ANY QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS FROM MR. BELL REGARDING THOSE TWO ITEMS IN THE SUPPLEMENT? OKAY.
ARE THERE ANY OBJECTIONS TO MOVING THAT ONTO MONDAY'S COUNCIL MEETING? OKAY, THANK YOU.
I JUST HAD A KIND OF A COMMENT, I GUESS LOOKING FOR CONFIRMATION.
I READ IN THE PAPER THAT UH, BECAUSE OF THE UH,
THERE WAS NO, AND IT'S PANTS PROVIDED AND ALL.
HAVE YOU HEARD THAT ROB? YES, THAT IS CORRECT.
UH, WE JUST RECEIVED CONFIRMATION TODAY, UH, FROM THE COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR.
DID THEY ARE GOING TO ABSORB ALL OF THE SPRING FUNDING BACK INTO THE COUNTY'S BUDGET DUE TO, UM, THEIR,
[00:25:01]
UM, UH, GET EPIPHANIES FUNDING FOR THEIR OPERATIONS FOR, UH, FOR THE 2020 YEAR.SO DOES THAT HAVE ANY NEGATIVE IMPACT ON WHAT WE ARE DOING? UH, THERE JUST WILL NOT BE A SPRING APPLICATION OR A SPRING AWARD PROCESSED, UH, AT THIS TIME.
BUT IT DOESN'T AFFECT ANYTHING THAT'S ALREADY BEEN THEN GRANTED THAT IS CORRECT.
ANYTHING THAT WOULD HAVE BEEN GRANTED WOULD HAVE BEEN GRANTED ON A PREVIOUS CYCLE.
THEY HAVE A QUESTIONS, COMMENTS.
AND WERE THERE ANY OBJECTIONS TO MOVING THIS ITEM OR THESE SUPPLEMENTALS ON FOR MONDAY? NO.
[ Disposal of Surplus Property – Police Division]
THREE C, WHICH IS DISPOSABLE AND SURPLUS PROPERTY THROUGH THE POLICE DIVISION.UH, I BELIEVE MR LIGHTENER, UH, CHIEF LIGHTENERS ON THE, ON CALLS WITH CHIEF ARE, SO THE POLICE DIVISION HAS AN OLD 2,500 WATT PORTABLE GENERATOR THAT NO LONGER WORKS.
WE'VE GOTTEN INFORMATION THAT THE, UH, CLARK COUNTY JVS IS INTERESTED IN THAT, UM, GENERATOR DO YOU USING THEIR SMALL ENGINE REPAIR VOCATIONAL CLASS AND WE WOULD LIKE TO JUST DONATE TO THAT TO THEM.
SO THAT'S THE REASON FOR THIS IS JUST TO GET PERMISSION FROM COUNCIL TO DONATE THAT GENERATOR TO THE CLARK COUNTY JVS.
ANY QUESTIONS? UH, THANK YOU, CHIEF.
ANY QUESTIONS, COMMENTS FOR CHIEF REGARDING, UH, DONATING THAT GENERATOR? ANY OBJECTION TO, UH, MOVING THAT ON TO MONDAY'S MEETING? THANK YOU, SIR.
NEXT UP IS ITEM THREE D, WHICH IS
[ Lehman Farm – Land Lease]
THE LAYMAN FARM.LANDLEASE DOES THAT, UH, ROB, DO YOU HAVE THAT ONE OR BRIAN? YUP.
UH, SEE IT JUST, UH, JUST FOR COUNCIL'S INFORMATION.
UM, WHEN WE ACQUIRED, UH, THE LAYMAN FARM IS, YOU KNOW, UH, ONE OF THE THINGS THAT WE WERE DOING WAS, UH, PROVIDING FOR A MARKET ANALYSIS, UH, AND REVIEW AND EVALUATION OF THAT PARTICULAR PROPERTY.
UM, AS WE'RE REVIEWING AND EVALUATING THAT INFORMATION, WE EXPECT, UH, THAT, UH, THAT DRAFTED THE STUDY IN HERE IN THE NEXT FEW WEEKS AS WE REVIEW AND EVALUATE THAT INFORMATION.
UM, IT'S OUR RECOMMENDATION, IT'S STAFF'S RECOMMENDATION TO COUNCIL THAT WE ALLOW THE, UH, GRUSON MEYER, UH, FAMILY TO CONTINUE TO FARM THE WESTERN PORTION OF THAT PROPERTY.
UH, THE BENEFIT TO THAT IS, IS THAT, UH, IT DOES PROVIDE US A LITTLE BIT OF REVENUE FROM THE PROPERTY SINCE WE'VE ACQUIRED IT.
AND BECAUSE IT'S BEING FARMED, IT ALSO PROVIDES THAT TAX BENEFIT TO US AS WELL.
UM, WE DO HAVE THE EASTERN PORTION OF THE PROPERTY WHICH WILL BE, UH, TO THE EAST OF LANE IN LANE, UM, NORTH OF EXECUTIVE AND UH, WEST OF, UH, TWO OH ONE THERE THAT IS, IS DEVELOPABLE.
THAT'S A APPROXIMATELY TWO OUTLETS THERE.
UM, IN THE EVENT THAT WE DO HAVE INTEREST IN THE SHORT TERM, SO WE WOULD, UH, WE WOULD ASK COUNCIL TO CONSIDER THAT AT LEAST.
ANY QUESTIONS FOR US OR CHUCK KOSKI ON THE ATLANTA LEAKS? HEY, OBJECTION.
SO WE THAT ON TO MONDAY'S MEETING FOR MAINE.
SO WE'LL MOVE ALL THOSE ITEMS AB OR BC AND D ON TO MONDAY'S COUNCIL MEETING.
[ Board and Commission Appointments]
ITEM THREE, WHICH IS OUR BOARD AND COMMISSION APPOINTMENTS.UH, WE JUST HAVE ONE THIS EVENING, WHICH IS A RECOMMENDED REAPPOINTMENT OF YOLANDA STEVENS TO THE PERSONNEL APPEALS BOARD FOR A NEW CHARM IN A MARCH 31ST, 2023 WE HAVE UPDATED, UH, MRS STEVEN'S BACKGROUND CHECK.
AND SO WE WOULD ASK COUNCIL TO ACT ON THE SPREE APPOINTMENT BY MOTION ON MONDAY.
MR. ROGERS, ARE THERE ANY QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS REGARDING THAT COMMISSION APPOINTMENT.
AND ANY OBJECTION TO MOVING THAT ON TO MONDAY.
HEARING NONE, WE'LL MOVE THAT ITEM ONTO MONDAY AS WELL.
UH, I THINK WHAT WE'LL DO, UM, PROBABLY WE SAVED COMMENTS AND THINGS LIKE THAT FOR OUR COUNCIL MEETINGS, BUT IT'S BEEN A WHILE SINCE WE'VE ALL, UM, TALK TO THEM AND AROUND ONE ANOTHER.
SO I GUESS, UH, I, I DON'T MIND AS LONG THAT OPEN THIS UP.
IF ANYBODY HAS QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS OR ANYTHING THEY WOULD JUST LIKE TO DISCUSS OR TO TELL ANYONE IN YOUR WARD ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS, ANYTHING LIKE THAT BEFORE WE ADJOURN.
I'D BE MORE THAN HAPPY TO GIVE EVERYBODY THE OPPORTUNITY TO DO THAT NOW IF YOU SO CHOOSE
[00:30:03]
AND WHAT'S GOING TWICE.APPRECIATE YOU, UH, TAKING THE TIME AND GETTING ON BOARD WITH US, THE SEEMING AND UH, THANK YOU TO EVERYONE WHO LISTENING, SO TRYING TO MAKE SURE WE HAVE BUSINESS OF THE CITY MOVING FORWARD, UM, AS REQUIRED.
AND THANKS FOR TUNING IN AND AS OF NOW, IT IS SIX 34 AND GO AHEAD AND ADJOURN THE SIEMENS MEETING.
