first around kind of candidates licensed

23
00:12:56,639 --> 00:13:00,560
zoning i wanted to bring this back up to

24
00:12:58,880 --> 00:13:02,959
the council we

25
00:13:00,560 --> 00:13:04,959
spoke a little bit about this um

26
00:13:02,959 --> 00:13:06,800
and there was some conversation around

27
00:13:04,959 --> 00:13:10,240
this before i uh i actually joined the

28
00:13:06,800 --> 00:13:12,639
council but um as we're moving um in

29
00:13:10,240 --> 00:13:14,720
this direction i want to kind of

30
00:13:12,639 --> 00:13:16,320
open up the conversation to make sure

31
00:13:14,720 --> 00:13:18,639
that we are

32
00:13:16,320 --> 00:13:21,120
keeping in mind that we are trying to do

33
00:13:18,639 --> 00:13:23,279
this and within the spirit of the law

34
00:13:21,120 --> 00:13:25,440
that seems to uh

35
00:13:23,279 --> 00:13:28,160
clearly point out trying to you know

36
00:13:25,440 --> 00:13:30,160
write some wrongs and some historical

37
00:13:28,160 --> 00:13:31,519
lines around prohibition in

38
00:13:30,160 --> 00:13:33,680
marginalized communities and how they

39
00:13:31,519 --> 00:13:35,760
were disproportionately impacted

40
00:13:33,680 --> 00:13:37,200
by these laws and i wanted to just kind

41
00:13:35,760 --> 00:13:39,519
of have that conversation with the

42
00:13:37,200 --> 00:13:45,079
council and make sure i was uh getting

43
00:13:39,519 --> 00:13:45,079

44
00:13:48,240 --> 00:13:52,320
and i would also if you don't mind i'd

45
00:13:49,680 --> 00:13:54,399

thank you uh good evening everyone

49
00:13:58,800 --> 00:14:03,120
um to begin um we're still waiting for

50
00:14:01,680 --> 00:14:04,959
regulations to come out from new york

51
00:14:03,120 --> 00:14:05,839
state related to

52
00:14:04,959 --> 00:14:07,600
um

53
00:14:05,839 --> 00:14:08,880
you know the parameters that the state's

54
00:14:07,600 --> 00:14:11,120
going to set up

55
00:14:08,880 --> 00:14:13,120
for lounges and dispensaries

56
00:14:11,120 --> 00:14:15,279
um i don't want to say we're in the dark

57
00:14:13,120 --> 00:14:17,920
when i think you know

58
00:14:15,279 --> 00:14:19,920
but we haven't seen even proposed

59
00:14:17,920 --> 00:14:21,519
regulations let alone finalized

60
00:14:19,920 --> 00:14:23,199
regulations

61
00:14:21,519 --> 00:14:26,399
um

62
00:14:23,199 --> 00:14:27,680
with zoning obviously you know

63
00:14:26,399 --> 00:14:29,440
there have been discussions that i've

64
00:14:27,680 --> 00:14:31,279
had with people in the development

65
00:14:29,440 --> 00:14:32,880
office

66
00:14:31,279 --> 00:14:34,240
generally i think

67
00:14:32,880 --> 00:14:36,880
we're of the mind that it's good to have

68
00:14:34,240 --> 00:14:38,959
the conversation but until

69
00:14:36,880 --> 00:14:40,959
the regulations come out so that we know

70
00:14:38,959 --> 00:14:43,120
what the state is going to require and

71
00:14:40,959 --> 00:14:45,519
whether or not

72
00:14:43,120 --> 00:14:47,600
you know we can go beyond what the state

73
00:14:45,519 --> 00:14:48,720
um may require

74
00:14:47,600 --> 00:14:51,120
um

75
00:14:48,720 --> 00:14:53,360
that's up in the air we don't know

76
00:14:51,120 --> 00:14:55,440
for example you know

77
00:14:53,360 --> 00:14:57,199
you know this i'm i'm speaking because i

78
00:14:55,440 --> 00:14:58,639
have really have no idea yeah it could

79
00:14:57,199 --> 00:15:00,240
be something related to like you know

80
00:14:58,639 --> 00:15:02,079
liquor stores where you have to have you

81
00:15:00,240 --> 00:15:04,639
know you have to be 500 feet apart for

82
00:15:02,079 --> 00:15:06,959
you know there are distance um

83
00:15:04,639 --> 00:15:08,720
requirements with liquor stores

84
00:15:06,959 --> 00:15:11,360
there's a chance that the state will do

85
00:15:08,720 --> 00:15:14,560
something very similar along those lines

86
00:15:11,360 --> 00:15:16,639
and the state may say and a city may be

87
00:15:14,560 --> 00:15:18,160
able to go beyond those restrictions we

88
00:15:16,639 --> 00:15:19,519
just don't know

89
00:15:18,160 --> 00:15:20,800
um

90
00:15:19,519 --> 00:15:23,120
you know i think obviously it's good to

91
00:15:20,800 --> 00:15:25,680
have the conversation to know to kind of

92
00:15:23,120 --> 00:15:28,079
keep it fresh but until really i think

93
00:15:25,680 --> 00:15:29,759
the state comes out with

94
00:15:28,079 --> 00:15:30,880
some type of

95
00:15:29,759 --> 00:15:33,360
you know

96
00:15:30,880 --> 00:15:34,399
regulations for us to review

97
00:15:33,360 --> 00:15:36,480
um

98
00:15:34,399 --> 00:15:40,079
it's very difficult to say what we can

99
00:15:36,480 --> 00:15:41,600
do and what we can't do

100
00:15:40,079 --> 00:15:43,360
there's not much more that i can really

101
00:15:41,600 --> 00:15:45,120
say on that i know you know as i said

102
00:15:43,360 --> 00:15:46,240
i've talked to the zoning officer about

103
00:15:45,120 --> 00:15:49,839
it we've

104
00:15:46,240 --> 00:15:52,240
you know um reviewed um you know things

105
00:15:49,839 --> 00:15:55,839
that may come up but we just as i said

106
00:15:52,240 --> 00:15:55,839
we don't know until we know

107
00:15:56,959 --> 00:15:59,759
i guess you know as we're out because

108
00:15:58,560 --> 00:16:01,600
we're gonna

109
00:15:59,759 --> 00:16:03,519
end up operating within certain

110
00:16:01,600 --> 00:16:04,560
parameters right so i just wanted to

111
00:16:03,519 --> 00:16:06,000
make sure you know i guess for the

112
00:16:04,560 --> 00:16:08,240
council outside of that piece was just

113
00:16:06,000 --> 00:16:10,800
like you know what you know as we start

114
00:16:08,240 --> 00:16:12,320
to think ahead of like you know what are

115
00:16:10,800 --> 00:16:15,519
you know some of the things that we can

116
00:16:12,320 --> 00:16:17,199
be uh you know

117
00:16:15,519 --> 00:16:19,120
making sure that we are in line with the

118
00:16:17,199 --> 00:16:20,399
spirit of this law because

119
00:16:19,120 --> 00:16:21,920
i i want to make sure that that's

120
00:16:20,399 --> 00:16:24,240
something that we're doing here that

121
00:16:21,920 --> 00:16:25,360
we're really honored you know um

122
00:16:24,240 --> 00:16:26,959
correcting you know some of the

123
00:16:25,360 --> 00:16:28,399
historical inequities that uh

124
00:16:26,959 --> 00:16:32,240
prohibition has

125
00:16:28,399 --> 00:16:35,120
uh impacted certain communities mr mayor

126
00:16:32,240 --> 00:16:39,839
can i correct i thought the

127
00:16:35,120 --> 00:16:42,320
state was going to put out first draft

128
00:16:39,839 --> 00:16:44,959
regulations so there would be a comment

129
00:16:42,320 --> 00:16:46,399
period so we would be able to

130
00:16:44,959 --> 00:16:47,759
get a general

131
00:16:46,399 --> 00:16:49,600
feel for

132
00:16:47,759 --> 00:16:51,360
the criteria that they were going to put

133
00:16:49,600 --> 00:16:53,519
into effect

134
00:16:51,360 --> 00:16:55,120
and

135
00:16:53,519 --> 00:16:57,759
kind of react

136
00:16:55,120 --> 00:16:59,360
from that you know should we endorse it

137
00:16:57,759 --> 00:17:00,480
100 should we

138
00:16:59,360 --> 00:17:03,120
say no

139
00:17:00,480 --> 00:17:06,480
we don't want some of this and

140
00:17:03,120 --> 00:17:08,400
zoning is still largely

141
00:17:06,480 --> 00:17:10,720
the program of the local legislative

142
00:17:08,400 --> 00:17:11,679
body that you're going to have

143
00:17:10,720 --> 00:17:14,480
uh

144
00:17:11,679 --> 00:17:16,079
the final decision on that

145
00:17:14,480 --> 00:17:18,480
with the exception you know the state

146
00:17:16,079 --> 00:17:20,880
has taken some things

147
00:17:18,480 --> 00:17:21,839
such as group homes

148
00:17:20,880 --> 00:17:24,079
and

149
00:17:21,839 --> 00:17:26,400
gave them the designation as a

150
00:17:24,079 --> 00:17:29,520
thing this is a single family

151
00:17:26,400 --> 00:17:30,720
are one so that you can't

152
00:17:29,520 --> 00:17:32,400
and it's appropriate where you can't

153
00:17:30,720 --> 00:17:33,280
discriminate against them

154
00:17:32,400 --> 00:17:35,200
but

155
00:17:33,280 --> 00:17:36,400
at the same time where you have some of

156
00:17:35,200 --> 00:17:38,160
those

157
00:17:36,400 --> 00:17:40,960
homes that come in

158
00:17:38,160 --> 00:17:43,120
they create issues that

159
00:17:40,960 --> 00:17:44,080
are ancillary to their activity they're

160
00:17:43,120 --> 00:17:47,039
parking

161
00:17:44,080 --> 00:17:49,200
their traffic the things that uh

162
00:17:47,039 --> 00:17:51,120
people understand the goal of the

163
00:17:49,200 --> 00:17:53,280
organization as a whole but there's

164
00:17:51,120 --> 00:17:54,320
sometimes there are impacts that the

165
00:17:53,280 --> 00:17:57,039
state

166
00:17:54,320 --> 00:17:58,480
legislature or illinois may not have

167
00:17:57,039 --> 00:18:00,480
considered

168
00:17:58,480 --> 00:18:02,320
how do we look at these and be able to

169
00:18:00,480 --> 00:18:04,480
articulate a position that's going to be

170
00:18:02,320 --> 00:18:07,510
appropriate for schenectady and probably

171
00:18:04,480 --> 00:18:10,700
other communities across the state

172
00:18:07,510 --> 00:18:10,700
[Music]

173
00:18:11,360 --> 00:18:16,000
so we've opted in for the retail

174
00:18:13,679 --> 00:18:16,799
dispensary and the on-flight consumption

175
00:18:16,000 --> 00:18:18,000
right

176
00:18:16,799 --> 00:18:19,840
and then

177
00:18:18,000 --> 00:18:21,520
um

178
00:18:19,840 --> 00:18:23,919
then we have the other information here

179
00:18:21,520 --> 00:18:26,080
where it says that

180
00:18:23,919 --> 00:18:27,600
the governor has said that certain

181
00:18:26,080 --> 00:18:29,520
communities people certain people who

182
00:18:27,600 --> 00:18:31,280
are impacted negatively are going to be

183
00:18:29,520 --> 00:18:32,160
the first ones to get

184
00:18:31,280 --> 00:18:34,400
um

185
00:18:32,160 --> 00:18:34,400
um

186
00:18:35,600 --> 00:18:38,880
so

187
00:18:36,880 --> 00:18:39,760
i mean is that something that i mean how

188
00:18:38,880 --> 00:18:41,200
do we

189
00:18:39,760 --> 00:18:42,240
i know we can't make this decision today

190
00:18:41,200 --> 00:18:44,559
but i think we need to start having a

191
00:18:42,240 --> 00:18:45,760
conversation of how we even identify

192
00:18:44,559 --> 00:18:46,559
because people have already come forward

193
00:18:45,760 --> 00:18:47,760
who

194
00:18:46,559 --> 00:18:50,320
that doesn't that they're not in that

195
00:18:47,760 --> 00:18:51,919
category but there are people

196
00:18:50,320 --> 00:18:54,559
so people who are in that category how

197
00:18:51,919 --> 00:18:56,400
do we begin to identify or you know how

198
00:18:54,559 --> 00:18:59,200
do we do that um i know that people

199
00:18:56,400 --> 00:19:00,480
aren't going to get licenses until 2023

200
00:18:59,200 --> 00:19:01,840
but um

201
00:19:00,480 --> 00:19:03,360
it's gonna probably take a while to get

202
00:19:01,840 --> 00:19:05,039
through all of this so

203
00:19:03,360 --> 00:19:07,039
um i think that's one of the reasons why

204
00:19:05,039 --> 00:19:09,440
we're talking about it today just to

205
00:19:07,039 --> 00:19:11,679
begin to kind of put in place

206
00:19:09,440 --> 00:19:14,799
so that we're not there in 2023 trying

207
00:19:11,679 --> 00:19:17,039
to figure that out yes yeah and if it's

208
00:19:14,799 --> 00:19:20,160
i mean yeah please uh

209
00:19:17,039 --> 00:19:20,160
mr coleman pointed out

210
00:19:20,960 --> 00:19:25,600
the application process somewhat mirrors

211
00:19:23,039 --> 00:19:28,240
are similar to a liquor license

212
00:19:25,600 --> 00:19:32,480
you know we don't become aware of it

213
00:19:28,240 --> 00:19:32,480
until the process is well underway

214
00:19:34,559 --> 00:19:38,640
and i believe i read that the governor

215
00:19:36,080 --> 00:19:40,799
said there'd be the first 100 to 200 is

216
00:19:38,640 --> 00:19:42,880
that all new york state yes yes so

217
00:19:40,799 --> 00:19:44,960
that's what it is

218
00:19:42,880 --> 00:19:46,400
so i mean i guess we would just wait for

219
00:19:44,960 --> 00:19:48,080
people to fill out a license and if

220
00:19:46,400 --> 00:19:50,720
they're in our area that's how we would

221
00:19:48,080 --> 00:19:52,640
determine who was going to be able to i

222
00:19:50,720 --> 00:19:54,960
don't know and i don't think they've

223
00:19:52,640 --> 00:19:57,760
said how many

224
00:19:54,960 --> 00:19:59,440
licenses they're looking to give

225
00:19:57,760 --> 00:20:02,640
statewide

226
00:19:59,440 --> 00:20:02,640
is that 200

227
00:20:02,880 --> 00:20:08,799
most of them is it half of them is it

228
00:20:07,600 --> 00:20:11,200
still a lot of unknowns in the

229
00:20:08,799 --> 00:20:12,480
discussion

230
00:20:11,200 --> 00:20:13,919
i think they're

231
00:20:12,480 --> 00:20:15,600
unknown but

232
00:20:13,919 --> 00:20:18,000
um i thought that it was a first round

233
00:20:15,600 --> 00:20:20,080
of 100 licenses across the state and

234
00:20:18,000 --> 00:20:21,840
then the second round of 100 licenses

235
00:20:20,080 --> 00:20:23,520
across the state i thought

236
00:20:21,840 --> 00:20:24,880
but i think they're in a public comment

237
00:20:23,520 --> 00:20:27,360
period

238
00:20:24,880 --> 00:20:29,679
right now actually um

239
00:20:27,360 --> 00:20:32,559
in terms of those first hundred but

240
00:20:29,679 --> 00:20:34,640
i'm asking this question however

241
00:20:32,559 --> 00:20:36,720
even with those first and it is 100

242
00:20:34,640 --> 00:20:38,480
across the state so obviously i would

243
00:20:36,720 --> 00:20:40,880
think that they're going to be

244
00:20:38,480 --> 00:20:43,280
as the state awards the licenses they'll

245
00:20:40,880 --> 00:20:44,799
be looking at

246
00:20:43,280 --> 00:20:47,120
you know probably be skewed to different

247
00:20:44,799 --> 00:20:48,720
areas of the state as well so but we

248
00:20:47,120 --> 00:20:52,000
don't have the licenses right i mean

249
00:20:48,720 --> 00:20:54,559
it'll be a state estate thing so that's

250
00:20:52,000 --> 00:20:57,039
it's not it's not even in our control

251
00:20:54,559 --> 00:20:58,159
at that point who gets the licenses i

252
00:20:57,039 --> 00:21:00,880
think

253
00:20:58,159 --> 00:21:03,200
that's my assumption at this point

254
00:21:00,880 --> 00:21:05,200
yeah

255
00:21:03,200 --> 00:21:07,039
you know that doesn't mean that you know

256
00:21:05,200 --> 00:21:09,120
just because there are no there are

257
00:21:07,039 --> 00:21:11,280
unknowns we shouldn't think about you

258
00:21:09,120 --> 00:21:14,880
know this obviously you know the idea

259
00:21:11,280 --> 00:21:16,640
here is you know um any type of you know

260
00:21:14,880 --> 00:21:18,159
permitting process we do internally for

261
00:21:16,640 --> 00:21:19,840
the city whether that's a special use

262
00:21:18,159 --> 00:21:23,039
permit that the city council wanted to

263
00:21:19,840 --> 00:21:25,280
require for any dispensary or lounge or

264
00:21:23,039 --> 00:21:27,280
um anything related to

265
00:21:25,280 --> 00:21:28,559
you know the areas around the city in

266
00:21:27,280 --> 00:21:31,679
which

267
00:21:28,559 --> 00:21:32,720
the council may look to you know only

268
00:21:31,679 --> 00:21:35,039
allow

269
00:21:32,720 --> 00:21:36,720
dispensaries or

270
00:21:35,039 --> 00:21:39,360
lounges you know that's within your

271
00:21:36,720 --> 00:21:42,240
purview um it just can't be anything

272
00:21:39,360 --> 00:21:44,320
that's really unreasonable in terms of

273
00:21:42,240 --> 00:21:45,840
preventing somebody from actually or a

274
00:21:44,320 --> 00:21:47,039
company from actually operating within

275
00:21:45,840 --> 00:21:49,280
the city

276
00:21:47,039 --> 00:21:50,880
um but you know there may come a point

277
00:21:49,280 --> 00:21:52,400
in time where the council says you know

278
00:21:50,880 --> 00:21:53,679
we don't want to have

279
00:21:52,400 --> 00:21:55,360
you know i'm not speaking for you

280
00:21:53,679 --> 00:21:56,640
obviously this is hypothetical where you

281
00:21:55,360 --> 00:21:58,720
may say we don't want to have

282
00:21:56,640 --> 00:22:00,559
dispensaries or lounges in our one

283
00:21:58,720 --> 00:22:03,039
residential district

284
00:22:00,559 --> 00:22:04,400
obviously that's important to know um so

285
00:22:03,039 --> 00:22:05,679
we can take a look at the zoning code

286
00:22:04,400 --> 00:22:08,000
and

287
00:22:05,679 --> 00:22:10,080
um you know maybe better identify you

288
00:22:08,000 --> 00:22:11,440
know that's a gun up to you and as i

289
00:22:10,080 --> 00:22:14,640
said i've talked to the development

290
00:22:11,440 --> 00:22:16,080
staff about it you know

291
00:22:14,640 --> 00:22:17,840
again without the regulations it's

292
00:22:16,080 --> 00:22:20,480
really hard to say you know what can be

293
00:22:17,840 --> 00:22:22,880
done and what can't be done um but it's

294
00:22:20,480 --> 00:22:24,720
important i think to be mindful of

295
00:22:22,880 --> 00:22:26,640
when the regulations do come out you

296
00:22:24,720 --> 00:22:28,960
know where the council

297
00:22:26,640 --> 00:22:31,039
thinks that it would be best for lounges

298
00:22:28,960 --> 00:22:33,039
and dispensaries to be and then what we

299
00:22:31,039 --> 00:22:35,840
do internally with you know whether it's

300
00:22:33,039 --> 00:22:37,200
a special use permit or obviously you

301
00:22:35,840 --> 00:22:40,480
know somebody would probably still have

302
00:22:37,200 --> 00:22:43,200
to get site plan approval um but um

303
00:22:40,480 --> 00:22:44,960
there are things to think about um

304
00:22:43,200 --> 00:22:47,200
but with so many unknowns it's really

305
00:22:44,960 --> 00:22:48,240
hard to say how does the council move

306
00:22:47,200 --> 00:22:49,280
forward

307
00:22:48,240 --> 00:22:51,200
right yeah

308
00:22:49,280 --> 00:22:53,919
yeah just for clarity you know the

309
00:22:51,200 --> 00:22:56,000
conversation today isn't necessarily um

310
00:22:53,919 --> 00:22:57,919
you know how we you know how we move

311
00:22:56,000 --> 00:23:00,480
forward it you know for me what i really

312
00:22:57,919 --> 00:23:01,919
want to do is make sure that we are as

313
00:23:00,480 --> 00:23:03,200
because we do need to start thinking

314
00:23:01,919 --> 00:23:04,400
about it right right because we know

315
00:23:03,200 --> 00:23:06,559
that it's coming down the line so if

316
00:23:04,400 --> 00:23:09,520
we're doing that that we're doing that

317
00:23:06,559 --> 00:23:11,120
um you know in in alignment with you

318
00:23:09,520 --> 00:23:13,600
know uh

319
00:23:11,120 --> 00:23:15,200
the spirit of the law that that

320
00:23:13,600 --> 00:23:16,799
you know as it's been done so i just

321
00:23:15,200 --> 00:23:18,400
want to make sure that it's the lens

322
00:23:16,799 --> 00:23:19,200
we're looking through as we're

323
00:23:18,400 --> 00:23:20,960
um

324
00:23:19,200 --> 00:23:23,810
as we do as we're starting to think

325
00:23:20,960 --> 00:23:24,960
about it

326
00:23:23,810 --> 00:23:26,320
[Music]

327
00:23:24,960 --> 00:23:28,159
thanks uh so i definitely think it's

328
00:23:26,320 --> 00:23:30,000
important to actively remind the

329
00:23:28,159 --> 00:23:32,080
community that as these conversations

330
00:23:30,000 --> 00:23:34,320
continue to evolve as a council we're

331
00:23:32,080 --> 00:23:38,000
remaining in tune with the information

332
00:23:34,320 --> 00:23:40,640
that's coming out and then definitely um

333
00:23:38,000 --> 00:23:42,080
emphasizing what mr farley mentioned

334
00:23:40,640 --> 00:23:44,799
just understanding what the governor's

335
00:23:42,080 --> 00:23:47,279
intent is so absent or personal uh

336
00:23:44,799 --> 00:23:48,960
interpretations or opinions about the

337
00:23:47,279 --> 00:23:50,960
seating opportunity initiative it's just

338
00:23:48,960 --> 00:23:52,480
understanding that whatever is decided

339
00:23:50,960 --> 00:23:54,880
there's a little comment period as the

340
00:23:52,480 --> 00:23:56,240
mayor alluded to or that's what the

341
00:23:54,880 --> 00:23:57,760
expectation is

342
00:23:56,240 --> 00:24:00,559
but understanding that regardless of

343
00:23:57,760 --> 00:24:02,000
what comes out as a counselor and sure

344
00:24:00,559 --> 00:24:04,240
that we're promoting it to the

345
00:24:02,000 --> 00:24:05,520
betterment of the entire community so i

346
00:24:04,240 --> 00:24:07,919
think it's just

347
00:24:05,520 --> 00:24:10,960
we're aware of updates there have been

348
00:24:07,919 --> 00:24:13,919
no formalized legislation coming forward

349
00:24:10,960 --> 00:24:16,320
everyone just be patient

350
00:24:13,919 --> 00:24:16,320
that's it

351
00:24:16,880 --> 00:24:20,880
as i was looking up some things at the

352
00:24:18,880 --> 00:24:22,880
office of canada's mismanagement after

353
00:24:20,880 --> 00:24:24,320
this was on the agenda i noticed that

354
00:24:22,880 --> 00:24:26,400
there was something that they did called

355
00:24:24,320 --> 00:24:27,919
community conversations

356
00:24:26,400 --> 00:24:30,400
where they went around and talked to

357
00:24:27,919 --> 00:24:32,000
people i wasn't aware of that so um you

358
00:24:30,400 --> 00:24:33,760
can go back and it's on the website you

359
00:24:32,000 --> 00:24:35,200
can go back and hit the link and

360
00:24:33,760 --> 00:24:37,520
actually um go look at it i haven't had

361
00:24:35,200 --> 00:24:39,120
a chance to do that yet but so i it'll

362
00:24:37,520 --> 00:24:40,559
be interesting for us i think to maybe

363
00:24:39,120 --> 00:24:41,919
take a look and see

364
00:24:40,559 --> 00:24:42,470
what these community conversations were

365
00:24:41,919 --> 00:24:44,159
about

366
00:24:42,470 --> 00:24:45,760
[Music]

367
00:24:44,159 --> 00:24:47,360
so it's in english in spanish for those

368
00:24:45,760 --> 00:24:48,559
who are listening and may want to go

369
00:24:47,360 --> 00:24:50,400
back in

370
00:24:48,559 --> 00:24:52,080
i don't have the um

371
00:24:50,400 --> 00:24:54,559
the link here but it's on the cannabis

372
00:24:52,080 --> 00:24:54,559
website

373
00:24:55,279 --> 00:24:58,799
any further discussion on that

374
00:24:58,880 --> 00:25:02,720
okay

375
00:25:00,400 --> 00:25:04,240
so we'll move into our procurement

376
00:25:02,720 --> 00:25:06,640
policy

377
00:25:04,240 --> 00:25:06,640
portfolio

378
00:25:08,720 --> 00:25:12,640
thank you

379
00:25:09,600 --> 00:25:15,760
a few weeks ago we discussed

380
00:25:12,640 --> 00:25:17,440
new procurement policy for year 2022 to

381
00:25:15,760 --> 00:25:19,440
2023

382
00:25:17,440 --> 00:25:22,720
and we held this back because mrs

383
00:25:19,440 --> 00:25:25,039
porterfield had wanted us to

384
00:25:22,720 --> 00:25:26,799
recommend that we insert the mwb

385
00:25:25,039 --> 00:25:28,400
language into the policy rather than

386
00:25:26,799 --> 00:25:29,279
having a footnote

387
00:25:28,400 --> 00:25:30,480
so

388
00:25:29,279 --> 00:25:32,880
we did that

389
00:25:30,480 --> 00:25:35,600
and this was a version that

390
00:25:32,880 --> 00:25:37,440
is with us here for us to review

391
00:25:35,600 --> 00:25:40,990
and come up with any additional

392
00:25:37,440 --> 00:25:43,440
recommendation that we may have

393
00:25:40,990 --> 00:25:45,919
[Music]

394
00:25:43,440 --> 00:25:48,000
if i may ask um

395
00:25:45,919 --> 00:25:50,640
mr gardner just give us a brief update

396
00:25:48,000 --> 00:25:52,080
if you don't mind sure sure

397
00:25:50,640 --> 00:25:54,840
mr gardner you just want to give us a

398
00:25:52,080 --> 00:25:58,960
brief update on these uh added

399
00:25:54,840 --> 00:25:58,960
changes the benefits of doing these

400
00:26:00,480 --> 00:26:03,919
all right good afternoon

401
00:26:02,240 --> 00:26:05,919
thank you um

402
00:26:03,919 --> 00:26:08,240
so so basically

403
00:26:05,919 --> 00:26:09,600
what what is the quote for you is taking

404
00:26:08,240 --> 00:26:12,720
the language that's already been

405
00:26:09,600 --> 00:26:14,000
approved in the uh mwde

406
00:26:12,720 --> 00:26:18,080
policy

407
00:26:14,000 --> 00:26:19,679
and adding into the uh practicing policy

408
00:26:18,080 --> 00:26:22,840
you know every language as opposed to

409
00:26:19,679 --> 00:26:23,120
football because it's already there but

410
00:26:22,840 --> 00:26:24,000
fellow in going

411
00:26:23,120 --> 00:26:24,000
we there's

412
00:26:26,720 --> 00:26:30,960
back and forth

413
00:26:29,200 --> 00:26:34,640
basically

414
00:26:30,960 --> 00:26:34,640
unless we have any specific questions

415
00:26:37,039 --> 00:26:40,960
i noticed a question that i think i'm

416
00:26:39,120 --> 00:26:43,520
not sure if it was from mr colton it

417
00:26:40,960 --> 00:26:45,200
says a.k.a um i was

418
00:26:43,520 --> 00:26:46,400
uncertain about that too i don't know if

419
00:26:45,200 --> 00:26:47,600
that got

420
00:26:46,400 --> 00:26:48,880
worked out

421
00:26:47,600 --> 00:26:50,559
do you want to say it or do you want me

422
00:26:48,880 --> 00:26:51,840
to i don't have any i mean that's the

423
00:26:50,559 --> 00:26:54,480
question that i raised i didn't i don't

424
00:26:51,840 --> 00:26:57,520
have an answer um so

425
00:26:54,480 --> 00:26:59,360
it um i'll just read it says um

426
00:26:57,520 --> 00:27:03,760
are the goals for

427
00:26:59,360 --> 00:27:05,679
each mbes and wpes 15 as indicated on

428
00:27:03,760 --> 00:27:07,600
the first paragraph for public works

429
00:27:05,679 --> 00:27:10,720
projects more than 100k

430
00:27:07,600 --> 00:27:11,600
or are the goals for each of those 12

431
00:27:10,720 --> 00:27:13,440
and 8

432
00:27:11,600 --> 00:27:17,200
and i did notice as i read through that

433
00:27:13,440 --> 00:27:19,120
it is in it is it says 12 and 8 in some

434
00:27:17,200 --> 00:27:21,120
different things okay so i was a little

435
00:27:19,120 --> 00:27:23,039
confused also the workforce goes deal

436
00:27:21,120 --> 00:27:25,120
specifically with the workforce so

437
00:27:23,039 --> 00:27:27,440
that's the hourly

438
00:27:25,120 --> 00:27:29,360
person working on the job site so so

439
00:27:27,440 --> 00:27:32,159
that's the eeo component

440
00:27:29,360 --> 00:27:33,600
and then the mwbe contract compliance

441
00:27:32,159 --> 00:27:34,399
piece gives us a

442
00:27:33,600 --> 00:27:37,039
okay

443
00:27:34,399 --> 00:27:39,760
okay so numbers of people on the site

444
00:27:37,039 --> 00:27:40,559
work at the workforce in the workforce

445
00:27:39,760 --> 00:27:43,360
and

446
00:27:40,559 --> 00:27:46,360
then the other part is just for like the

447
00:27:43,360 --> 00:27:46,360
contractors

448
00:27:46,900 --> 00:27:49,999
[Music]

449
00:27:51,520 --> 00:27:54,640
i guess we'll have one more the only

450
00:27:53,200 --> 00:27:55,679
other thing is that i did notice that

451
00:27:54,640 --> 00:27:58,720
the

452
00:27:55,679 --> 00:28:00,159
ceiling went from 250 000 to 300 000 for

453
00:27:58,720 --> 00:28:02,159
the apprenticeship

454
00:28:00,159 --> 00:28:03,200
programs i know we had talked about that

455
00:28:02,159 --> 00:28:04,640
quite a bit

456
00:28:03,200 --> 00:28:06,799
last year i just did couldn't you

457
00:28:04,640 --> 00:28:09,520
comment on that yeah and and again that

458
00:28:06,799 --> 00:28:11,600
was the um suggestion you know was to

459
00:28:09,520 --> 00:28:13,200
come back and discuss it was talk about

460
00:28:11,600 --> 00:28:15,520
you know bringing it you know and

461
00:28:13,200 --> 00:28:18,159
phasing that in and that's all that was

462
00:28:15,520 --> 00:28:20,399
what's basically probably 250 up to 300

463
00:28:18,159 --> 00:28:22,799
000 again

464
00:28:20,399 --> 00:28:23,600
the mindset is to create opportunities

465
00:28:22,799 --> 00:28:25,600
for

466
00:28:23,600 --> 00:28:26,880
you know the smaller firms that not

467
00:28:25,600 --> 00:28:30,760
necessarily have

468
00:28:26,880 --> 00:28:30,760
you know access to these friendships

469
00:28:42,000 --> 00:28:45,760
more local small business owners

470
00:28:44,480 --> 00:28:47,840
one of the questions i think that was

471
00:28:45,760 --> 00:28:50,480
raised at the last time that we talked

472
00:28:47,840 --> 00:28:53,200
about this a few weeks ago was to what

473
00:28:50,480 --> 00:28:56,159
extent we've had success

474
00:28:53,200 --> 00:28:58,720
um with local

475
00:28:56,159 --> 00:29:00,480
contractors being able to to do this

476
00:28:58,720 --> 00:29:03,679
based on these changes that we had made

477
00:29:00,480 --> 00:29:06,320
last time okay so so it's a long term

478
00:29:03,679 --> 00:29:08,480
process you know it's a commitment and

479
00:29:06,320 --> 00:29:11,679
um you know we've had success uh we're

480
00:29:08,480 --> 00:29:12,720
getting you know more and more firms uh

481
00:29:11,679 --> 00:29:14,640
know

482
00:29:12,720 --> 00:29:16,880
coming in line consistency in terms of

483
00:29:14,640 --> 00:29:18,880
what the state requirements are

484
00:29:16,880 --> 00:29:21,200
and so we're working that and it's a

485
00:29:18,880 --> 00:29:22,799
much more strenuous process

486
00:29:21,200 --> 00:29:24,799
in other words

487
00:29:22,799 --> 00:29:26,960
you know to get certified and all that

488
00:29:24,799 --> 00:29:26,960
there's

489
00:29:29,840 --> 00:29:32,159
and

490
00:29:30,720 --> 00:29:33,840
you know we've gotten more companies

491
00:29:32,159 --> 00:29:35,679
certified

492
00:29:33,840 --> 00:29:37,440
you know as a result of this and then

493
00:29:35,679 --> 00:29:39,679
you know more opportunities

494
00:29:37,440 --> 00:29:41,120
you know coming forward and ultimately

495
00:29:39,679 --> 00:29:43,200
you know i won't be able to say in you

496
00:29:41,120 --> 00:29:44,559
know two years from now or five years

497
00:29:43,200 --> 00:29:46,559
from the conception

498
00:29:44,559 --> 00:29:49,520
that we create more prime contractors

499
00:29:46,559 --> 00:29:51,200
that's you know in this thing that

500
00:29:49,520 --> 00:29:53,440
people you know compete and have

501
00:29:51,200 --> 00:29:54,559
capacity to perform and execute on these

502
00:29:53,440 --> 00:29:56,799
jobs

503
00:29:54,559 --> 00:29:58,559
which also means that we would have more

504
00:29:56,799 --> 00:30:00,480
opportunity for

505
00:29:58,559 --> 00:30:02,480
the workforce and our constituents so

506
00:30:00,480 --> 00:30:04,159
again we have to do two things one you

507
00:30:02,480 --> 00:30:05,840
got to bring the capacity of other

508
00:30:04,159 --> 00:30:07,520
companies to compete

509
00:30:05,840 --> 00:30:09,600
and you know being the thing which is

510
00:30:07,520 --> 00:30:11,600
all about good business but also we have

511
00:30:09,600 --> 00:30:12,720
to train and develop the workforce to

512
00:30:11,600 --> 00:30:14,480
support

513
00:30:12,720 --> 00:30:16,720
you know these companies so that's why

514
00:30:14,480 --> 00:30:18,480
you can't do one without another you

515
00:30:16,720 --> 00:30:20,000
know so you can't necessarily have a

516
00:30:18,480 --> 00:30:22,000
training program

517
00:30:20,000 --> 00:30:24,159
and you don't have companies capable of

518
00:30:22,000 --> 00:30:26,480
taking longer to do that so you have to

519
00:30:24,159 --> 00:30:28,159
bring up the workforce to support you

520
00:30:26,480 --> 00:30:30,640
know these companies that

521
00:30:28,159 --> 00:30:32,640
you know that comes along and

522
00:30:30,640 --> 00:30:34,080
there's a lot more to it than just

523
00:30:32,640 --> 00:30:35,520
the labor on the work you know and

524
00:30:34,080 --> 00:30:36,960
having the children person you know

525
00:30:35,520 --> 00:30:39,039
these companies they need

526
00:30:36,960 --> 00:30:40,480
back office support for them and they

527
00:30:39,039 --> 00:30:42,720
have trouble

528
00:30:40,480 --> 00:30:44,399
getting the paperwork in and processing

529
00:30:42,720 --> 00:30:45,440
really which is why they know their pay

530
00:30:44,399 --> 00:30:48,840
which is

531
00:30:45,440 --> 00:30:50,960
adds to the cash flow issue so so it's

532
00:30:48,840 --> 00:30:52,880
evolving process

533
00:30:50,960 --> 00:30:54,559
that they have to

534
00:30:52,880 --> 00:30:56,960
you know do and

535
00:30:54,559 --> 00:30:59,279
you know we are making that way and

536
00:30:56,960 --> 00:31:01,120
you know a lot of success and we have to

537
00:30:59,279 --> 00:31:04,679
continue but it's not easy by no means

538
00:31:01,120 --> 00:31:04,679
you know it's

539
00:31:05,600 --> 00:31:09,840
well i appreciate the work that you do

540
00:31:08,159 --> 00:31:11,760

541

certified and

542
00:31:11,760 --> 00:31:15,919

that you know we've now included the

569
00:32:06,480 --> 00:32:11,120
utilization in here but kind of fills in

570
00:32:09,039 --> 00:32:12,480
some gaps for people to go to the other

571
00:32:11,120 --> 00:32:13,440
document knowing that there's another

572
00:32:12,480 --> 00:32:14,960

the mayor wanted to add something here

608
00:33:51,279 --> 00:33:55,919
and then we'll

609
00:33:52,880 --> 00:33:58,880
go into that discussion so mr mayor

610
00:33:55,919 --> 00:34:00,799
talked to council member uh

611
00:33:58,880 --> 00:34:03,519
council president porterfield

612
00:34:00,799 --> 00:34:06,399
a little while ago got a request from

613
00:34:03,519 --> 00:34:07,679
the u.s conference of mares

614
00:34:06,399 --> 00:34:09,840
to

615
00:34:07,679 --> 00:34:09,840
uh

616
00:34:11,599 --> 00:34:14,800
pass it around

617
00:34:13,040 --> 00:34:17,760
there i thought

618
00:34:14,800 --> 00:34:19,200
two weeks ago that had been resolved

619
00:34:17,760 --> 00:34:20,879
but they're still

620
00:34:19,200 --> 00:34:22,800
a

621
00:34:20,879 --> 00:34:25,839
discussion in congress

622
00:34:22,800 --> 00:34:30,320
to limit or take back the money that has

623
00:34:25,839 --> 00:34:34,159
been allocated for local governments

624
00:34:30,320 --> 00:34:35,919
to fund some of the

625
00:34:34,159 --> 00:34:37,119
issues that are arising from the

626
00:34:35,919 --> 00:34:38,960
activity

627
00:34:37,119 --> 00:34:39,760
in the ukraine

628
00:34:38,960 --> 00:34:41,919
and

629
00:34:39,760 --> 00:34:42,720
some of the deficits that

630
00:34:41,919 --> 00:34:44,240
are

631
00:34:42,720 --> 00:34:46,079
funding

632
00:34:44,240 --> 00:34:49,200
necessities that are

633
00:34:46,079 --> 00:34:51,760
coming so from media

634
00:34:49,200 --> 00:34:54,399
and what i was looking for from that

635
00:34:51,760 --> 00:34:56,240
memo is to have the council consider

636
00:34:54,399 --> 00:34:57,839
passing the resolution

637
00:34:56,240 --> 00:35:00,960
saying that we

638
00:34:57,839 --> 00:35:03,920
appreciate the work that went into

639
00:35:00,960 --> 00:35:06,480
getting money for local governments

640
00:35:03,920 --> 00:35:08,720
we're going through the process now to

641
00:35:06,480 --> 00:35:09,359
spend it we've identified some projects

642
00:35:08,720 --> 00:35:10,960
in

643
00:35:09,359 --> 00:35:13,359
holland central park going through the

644
00:35:10,960 --> 00:35:16,720
review with community now and

645
00:35:13,359 --> 00:35:18,720
again looking forward to

646
00:35:16,720 --> 00:35:19,680
other things as we deal with it next

647
00:35:18,720 --> 00:35:20,640
year

648
00:35:19,680 --> 00:35:24,320
and

649
00:35:20,640 --> 00:35:27,119
i always appreciate the good work of

650
00:35:24,320 --> 00:35:29,839
people in congress sometimes it happens

651
00:35:27,119 --> 00:35:32,640
where i don't quite understand the logic

652
00:35:29,839 --> 00:35:34,800
and uh would uh ask for the council's

653
00:35:32,640 --> 00:35:35,599
consideration to go on record saying

654
00:35:34,800 --> 00:35:38,000
that

655
00:35:35,599 --> 00:35:39,359
we can thank them for the money that

656
00:35:38,000 --> 00:35:42,640
we've got and

657
00:35:39,359 --> 00:35:42,640
we need that money and

658
00:35:42,720 --> 00:35:47,359
don't want them to undertake something

659
00:35:44,800 --> 00:35:50,079
that would claw it back or modify

660
00:35:47,359 --> 00:35:51,359
what we have

661
00:35:50,079 --> 00:35:53,680
coming to us

662
00:35:51,359 --> 00:35:53,680
today

663
00:35:55,119 --> 00:36:00,240
i would absolutely 100 support that

664
00:35:58,400 --> 00:36:01,839
you know that you know we got the money

665
00:36:00,240 --> 00:36:03,119
we're anticipating spending the money so

666
00:36:01,839 --> 00:36:05,920
i think that it's definitely something

667
00:36:03,119 --> 00:36:05,920
that we should do

668
00:36:06,000 --> 00:36:08,160
so

669
00:36:09,440 --> 00:36:12,599
i agree

670
00:36:20,500 --> 00:36:23,769
[Music]

671
00:36:24,160 --> 00:36:27,839
so at this point um

672
00:36:28,720 --> 00:36:33,760
this is a traffic tool that's an outline

673
00:36:32,000 --> 00:36:36,560
again okay

674
00:36:33,760 --> 00:36:40,520
okay so i want you to recess

675
00:36:36,560 --> 00:36:40,520
okay all those in favor

676
00:36:42,820 --> 00:36:45,869
[Music]

677
00:36:55,360 --> 00:36:58,459
[Music]

678
00:37:04,320 --> 00:37:09,680
2022 capital projects which you had

679
00:37:07,200 --> 00:37:11,040
already really improved in uh the budget

680
00:37:09,680 --> 00:37:14,720
process uh

681
00:37:11,040 --> 00:37:16,880
in november of the past year uh

682
00:37:14,720 --> 00:37:18,400
and as you know uh what we're in the

683
00:37:16,880 --> 00:37:19,920
process right now is to actually go out

684
00:37:18,400 --> 00:37:22,320
and borrow the money so we're just

685
00:37:19,920 --> 00:37:24,320
getting an approval uh with this bond

686
00:37:22,320 --> 00:37:26,640
awareness to go out and borrow the money

687
00:37:24,320 --> 00:37:29,440
um as you know uh the total capital

688
00:37:26,640 --> 00:37:32,000
prices came over 12 million dollars but

689
00:37:29,440 --> 00:37:34,800
we we're looking to just borrow uh

690
00:37:32,000 --> 00:37:38,640
6.9 million uh the other difference is

691
00:37:34,800 --> 00:37:41,599
the cost of issuance costs of 93 000 uh

692
00:37:38,640 --> 00:37:44,079
we're going to be banning this ban as a

693
00:37:41,599 --> 00:37:46,240
bonding station though uh usually for

694
00:37:44,079 --> 00:37:48,960
one year and we'll probably bond it next

695
00:37:46,240 --> 00:37:52,640
year as as long as the interest rates

696
00:37:48,960 --> 00:37:54,880
are favorable which they are right now

697
00:37:52,640 --> 00:37:58,079
um have any questions yeah

698
00:37:54,880 --> 00:38:00,480
yeah so mr ferrari mr mayor

699
00:37:58,079 --> 00:38:02,880
how many of these items are associated

700
00:38:00,480 --> 00:38:05,839
with

701
00:38:02,880 --> 00:38:05,839
no

702
00:38:12,800 --> 00:38:17,040
any questions yeah just about you said

703
00:38:15,359 --> 00:38:20,320
it was 93 000 that was a cost of

704
00:38:17,040 --> 00:38:20,320
insurance no issues

705
00:38:20,480 --> 00:38:24,880
that's right i had a question i think

706
00:38:22,800 --> 00:38:27,359
earlier today about the vehicle

707
00:38:24,880 --> 00:38:28,560
um uh i'm going to break it down uh the

708
00:38:27,359 --> 00:38:30,880
fire department they're going to have

709
00:38:28,560 --> 00:38:32,480
four command vehicles uh the last time

710
00:38:30,880 --> 00:38:34,880
they got a vehicle was four years ago

711
00:38:32,480 --> 00:38:35,680
most of their vehicles are over 15 years

712
00:38:34,880 --> 00:38:38,079
old

713
00:38:35,680 --> 00:38:41,040
and they're asked asking for four new

714
00:38:38,079 --> 00:38:44,480
ones because 15 year 15 years old is the

715
00:38:41,040 --> 00:38:46,079
newest of the last four ones so that's

716
00:38:44,480 --> 00:38:50,000
why they're getting that the police are

717
00:38:46,079 --> 00:38:51,359
getting a total of 16 of 12 uh mark cars

718
00:38:50,000 --> 00:38:53,680
for unmarked

719
00:38:51,359 --> 00:38:55,359
uh you got to remember uh

720
00:38:53,680 --> 00:38:56,880
they just received the new cards for

721
00:38:55,359 --> 00:38:59,599
2021

722
00:38:56,880 --> 00:39:02,160
but we never got the cars in 2020 so

723
00:38:59,599 --> 00:39:04,240
they're replacing cars with huge amount

724
00:39:02,160 --> 00:39:06,079
of mileages so so we're actually we're

725
00:39:04,240 --> 00:39:08,640
looking for this actually probably won't

726
00:39:06,079 --> 00:39:09,440
get it for another nine months to a year

727
00:39:08,640 --> 00:39:11,119
so

728
00:39:09,440 --> 00:39:12,960
those police cars

729
00:39:11,119 --> 00:39:15,119
how many did we get just before i know

730
00:39:12,960 --> 00:39:16,960
that we're getting 16 now we'll get 69

731
00:39:15,119 --> 00:39:18,160
last year we got 12 all together eight

732
00:39:16,960 --> 00:39:20,720
and four

733
00:39:18,160 --> 00:39:22,320
uh the streets uh the streets uh

734
00:39:20,720 --> 00:39:24,160

735
00:39:22,320 --> 00:39:27,280
two dump trucks with plows the plot of

736
00:39:24,160 --> 00:39:30,000
streets and two new pickup trucks again

737
00:39:27,280 --> 00:39:33,040
those pickup trucks are uh over uh 12

738
00:39:30,000 --> 00:39:35,119
years old the ones that we're replacing

739
00:39:33,040 --> 00:39:36,640
the waste department we have four new uh

740
00:39:35,119 --> 00:39:39,680

and two pickups for the supervisors too

742
00:39:39,680 --> 00:39:42,320
and if you've seen the supervisors

743
00:39:40,960 --> 00:39:45,119
trucks you know that they need new

744
00:39:42,320 --> 00:39:46,240
trucks those guys those are also over 15

745
00:39:45,119 --> 00:39:49,839

anything that we use for vehicles we're

756
00:40:07,520 --> 00:40:11,760
gonna try to get all electric so trying

757
00:40:09,680 --> 00:40:14,480
to move in the electric uh

758
00:40:11,760 --> 00:40:16,800
in the electric uh realm of things

759
00:40:14,480 --> 00:40:19,760
and uh sooner you think we'll be buying

760
00:40:16,800 --> 00:40:21,680
uh electric uh pickups pretty soon as we

761
00:40:19,760 --> 00:40:22,880
hear this coming

762
00:40:21,680 --> 00:40:24,079
uh

763
00:40:22,880 --> 00:40:25,599
yeah

764
00:40:24,079 --> 00:40:27,280
how many sweepers are we gonna have

765
00:40:25,599 --> 00:40:29,920
we're gonna have one new sweeper in fact

766
00:40:27,280 --> 00:40:33,040
uh we as you remember uh i think about

767
00:40:29,920 --> 00:40:35,280
uh two months ago jay where we asked to

768
00:40:33,040 --> 00:40:37,359
order it so it's in the order now and

769
00:40:35,280 --> 00:40:39,200
that one sweeper is it still not done

770
00:40:37,359 --> 00:40:41,280
yet so we're hoping to get it before the

771
00:40:39,200 --> 00:40:42,800
end of the year hopefully get it for

772
00:40:41,280 --> 00:40:44,800
linda's sentence

773
00:40:42,800 --> 00:40:47,040
two of the streams

774
00:40:44,800 --> 00:40:47,040
one

775
00:40:48,079 --> 00:40:52,720
we're gonna have a total we're gonna

776
00:40:49,200 --> 00:40:52,720
have a total of four retirement

777
00:40:59,040 --> 00:41:01,839
any other questions

778
00:41:02,319 --> 00:41:06,800
mr would you have any other questions no

779
00:41:04,319 --> 00:41:09,440
no okay thank you thank you very much

780
00:41:06,800 --> 00:41:09,440
i'll be back

781
00:41:10,319 --> 00:41:15,200
you may have a motion on this

782
00:41:13,359 --> 00:41:17,359
second all in favor

783
00:41:15,200 --> 00:41:17,359
aye

784
00:41:18,400 --> 00:41:24,079
the next item is purchasing microphones

785
00:41:21,280 --> 00:41:25,760
for city council with sport appeal yes

786
00:41:24,079 --> 00:41:28,160
um we've been discussing this for a

787
00:41:25,760 --> 00:41:29,920
while um you know mr family brought up

788
00:41:28,160 --> 00:41:30,880
like back i think back in november just

789
00:41:29,920 --> 00:41:33,040
the whole

790
00:41:30,880 --> 00:41:36,240
um

791
00:41:33,040 --> 00:41:37,599
not good quality of uh our um our

792
00:41:36,240 --> 00:41:39,119
broadcast

793
00:41:37,599 --> 00:41:40,960
and um i know that it's going to be a

794
00:41:39,119 --> 00:41:43,119
longer process however

795
00:41:40,960 --> 00:41:44,400
uh if you notice i mean i know you all

796
00:41:43,119 --> 00:41:47,040
know this now

797
00:41:44,400 --> 00:41:49,040
we're down to one microphone period in

798
00:41:47,040 --> 00:41:51,520
the chambers and that's being shared by

799
00:41:49,040 --> 00:41:52,560
the public as well as by the council

800
00:41:51,520 --> 00:41:55,440
and

801
00:41:52,560 --> 00:41:56,480
our last meeting it just reminded me of

802
00:41:55,440 --> 00:41:58,079
a

803
00:41:56,480 --> 00:42:00,000
episode of parks and rec if you've ever

804
00:41:58,079 --> 00:42:03,200
seen it so

805
00:42:00,000 --> 00:42:04,800
i really really think that we need um

806
00:42:03,200 --> 00:42:06,960
and highly recommend that we buy at

807
00:42:04,800 --> 00:42:09,760
least two microphones so that the

808
00:42:06,960 --> 00:42:10,960
council is not sharing the microphone

809
00:42:09,760 --> 00:42:14,800
because it looks like it's going to be a

810
00:42:10,960 --> 00:42:16,960
longer process for us to um get all the

811
00:42:14,800 --> 00:42:19,119
contracts and all the other things that

812
00:42:16,960 --> 00:42:20,319
the mayor was talking about um i did

813
00:42:19,119 --> 00:42:22,240
read an email

814
00:42:20,319 --> 00:42:24,800
um where i know that there were there

815
00:42:22,240 --> 00:42:26,960
was a request for having um these

816
00:42:24,800 --> 00:42:29,359
gooseneck mics but then there was the

817
00:42:26,960 --> 00:42:31,119
whole thing about running cords which

818
00:42:29,359 --> 00:42:32,400
again is a longer process so i think at

819
00:42:31,119 --> 00:42:34,640
this point in time we need to do

820
00:42:32,400 --> 00:42:36,720
something in the short term and just

821
00:42:34,640 --> 00:42:38,560
have microphones so that the council has

822
00:42:36,720 --> 00:42:40,800
a couple microphones to use

823
00:42:38,560 --> 00:42:42,079
it's just getting more and more

824
00:42:40,800 --> 00:42:44,800
challenging

825
00:42:42,079 --> 00:42:46,400
during our meetings

826
00:42:44,800 --> 00:42:49,680
absolutely i have to agree with that

827
00:42:46,400 --> 00:42:51,040
that we need to get new microphones and

828
00:42:49,680 --> 00:42:53,920
let's work out the detail and getting

829
00:42:51,040 --> 00:42:53,920
the other stuff fixed

830
00:42:55,040 --> 00:43:00,319
yeah so um it's looked into this they

831
00:42:58,720 --> 00:43:01,760
looked into whether or not the

832
00:43:00,319 --> 00:43:02,960
goosenecks

833
00:43:01,760 --> 00:43:04,319
would be

834
00:43:02,960 --> 00:43:06,319
financially

835
00:43:04,319 --> 00:43:07,119
cost effective they are not

836
00:43:06,319 --> 00:43:08,800
um

837
00:43:07,119 --> 00:43:10,880
that was the idea

838
00:43:08,800 --> 00:43:11,760
the wiring process really isn't a big

839
00:43:10,880 --> 00:43:14,800
deal

840
00:43:11,760 --> 00:43:14,800
according to it

841
00:43:15,119 --> 00:43:19,920
but the cost is just

842
00:43:17,440 --> 00:43:22,560
well over what two wireless microphones

843
00:43:19,920 --> 00:43:25,200
would be i thought maybe since they were

844
00:43:22,560 --> 00:43:28,319
wired it might be about the same cost

845
00:43:25,200 --> 00:43:32,160
but it's not so the two wireless are

846
00:43:28,319 --> 00:43:32,160
slightly less than five hundred dollars

847
00:43:32,800 --> 00:43:36,160
any other comments

848
00:43:34,450 --> 00:43:37,760
[Music]

849
00:43:36,160 --> 00:43:41,119
you may have a motion to proceed to

850
00:43:37,760 --> 00:43:44,160
purchase a new microphone from moving

851
00:43:41,119 --> 00:43:44,160
all in favor all right

852
00:43:44,400 --> 00:43:50,720
the next item is amendments to the 2022

853
00:43:48,079 --> 00:43:50,720
2020

854
00:43:51,920 --> 00:43:56,640
annual action plan to include a

855
00:43:53,760 --> 00:43:59,280
reallocation of 250 000 from snap and

856
00:43:56,640 --> 00:44:01,280
street paving to park improvement

857
00:43:59,280 --> 00:44:03,200
good evening and happy spring

858
00:44:01,280 --> 00:44:05,119
um this is just in relation to the

859
00:44:03,200 --> 00:44:08,160
public comment period we just had for

860
00:44:05,119 --> 00:44:10,240
the reallocation of 250 000

861
00:44:08,160 --> 00:44:12,560
um from the street painting and snack

862
00:44:10,240 --> 00:44:14,480
programs to park improvements this has

863
00:44:12,560 --> 00:44:15,359
to do with ongoing park projects that we

864
00:44:14,480 --> 00:44:17,280
have

865
00:44:15,359 --> 00:44:19,440
um and the need to kind of spend down

866
00:44:17,280 --> 00:44:20,240
the money that was on spend for prior

867
00:44:19,440 --> 00:44:22,480
years

868
00:44:20,240 --> 00:44:23,920
um so just looking for the council to

869
00:44:22,480 --> 00:44:26,090
approve this amendment and the

870
00:44:23,920 --> 00:44:27,760
reallocation of the funding

871
00:44:26,090 --> 00:44:31,520
[Music]

872
00:44:27,760 --> 00:44:31,520
that is 2021 2022

873
00:44:31,680 --> 00:44:35,680
yes okay

874
00:44:32,960 --> 00:44:37,040
oh so that that's a that's a typo on our

875
00:44:35,680 --> 00:44:38,240
agenda

876
00:44:37,040 --> 00:44:40,560
okay

877
00:44:38,240 --> 00:44:40,560
questions

878
00:44:40,800 --> 00:44:44,160
go ahead please uh so i know at least

879
00:44:42,640 --> 00:44:45,760
for me being a new council member

880
00:44:44,160 --> 00:44:47,280
whenever i hear anyone recount

881
00:44:45,760 --> 00:44:51,640
reallocating money from the street

882
00:44:47,280 --> 00:44:51,640
paving and smacking like what

883
00:44:52,800 --> 00:44:56,079
um but i didn't know if you were able to

884
00:44:55,040 --> 00:44:57,920
or

885
00:44:56,079 --> 00:45:00,960
chris i was able to come and speak to

886
00:44:57,920 --> 00:45:02,880
just a proportionality of what this

887
00:45:00,960 --> 00:45:04,960
amount of a hundred thousand dollars

888
00:45:02,880 --> 00:45:06,640
being

889
00:45:04,960 --> 00:45:08,560
is in comparison to the entire budget i

890
00:45:06,640 --> 00:45:10,000
think just to reassure people that

891
00:45:08,560 --> 00:45:13,280
this is not something that's being made

892
00:45:10,000 --> 00:45:16,240
at the expense of the entire paving sure

893
00:45:13,280 --> 00:45:18,960
uh our paving budget is is well right

894
00:45:16,240 --> 00:45:21,280
now so right now we usually get around

895
00:45:18,960 --> 00:45:23,040
1.5 million dollars of chips money which

896
00:45:21,280 --> 00:45:24,000
is state highway consolidated roads

897
00:45:23,040 --> 00:45:25,680
money

898
00:45:24,000 --> 00:45:28,560
in addition to that the new york state

899
00:45:25,680 --> 00:45:30,880
budget has allocated an additional 1.2

900
00:45:28,560 --> 00:45:32,160
million dollars to the city for the last

901
00:45:30,880 --> 00:45:34,240
year i believe it's going to be a

902
00:45:32,160 --> 00:45:35,920
three-year program which is additional

903
00:45:34,240 --> 00:45:38,400
chips for state routes but we can use it

904
00:45:35,920 --> 00:45:40,160
for other roads um on top of that in the

905
00:45:38,400 --> 00:45:41,839
capital budget which you are just moving

906
00:45:40,160 --> 00:45:44,319
forward we also have i believe it's a

907
00:45:41,839 --> 00:45:48,240
million and a half dollars for roadways

908
00:45:44,319 --> 00:45:50,240
and there um so the paving program uh

909
00:45:48,240 --> 00:45:51,599
has the money to pave the roads one of

910
00:45:50,240 --> 00:45:53,920
the things that we cannot use this money

911
00:45:51,599 --> 00:45:55,839
for just to be clear is that this is for

912
00:45:53,920 --> 00:45:58,079
contractor work with roadways for

913
00:45:55,839 --> 00:45:59,680
long-term work it can't be used for

914
00:45:58,079 --> 00:46:02,160
potholes

915
00:45:59,680 --> 00:46:04,880
so potholes is considered maintenance

916
00:46:02,160 --> 00:46:07,040
and maintenance is not eligible for

917
00:46:04,880 --> 00:46:09,359
expenses under this money so that is

918
00:46:07,040 --> 00:46:11,119
where we have our operating budgets and

919
00:46:09,359 --> 00:46:13,839
in that kind of money but as far as i'm

920
00:46:11,119 --> 00:46:16,480
concerned we are fine for prepaying

921
00:46:13,839 --> 00:46:18,560
roads we actually have two contracts

922
00:46:16,480 --> 00:46:20,720
starting this year again and we have a

923
00:46:18,560 --> 00:46:22,720
third going out in april

924
00:46:20,720 --> 00:46:25,280
all of them essentially multi-million

925
00:46:22,720 --> 00:46:27,440
dollar programs

926
00:46:25,280 --> 00:46:29,760
and i guess

927
00:46:27,440 --> 00:46:31,839
we're doing as much work as staff also

928
00:46:29,760 --> 00:46:33,359
would allow you know like we are pushing

929
00:46:31,839 --> 00:46:34,800
the work out and getting it done so i

930
00:46:33,359 --> 00:46:37,119
don't think that we're doing any

931
00:46:34,800 --> 00:46:38,880
disservice to the citizens connecting by

932
00:46:37,119 --> 00:46:40,880
by reallocating this money i mean this

933
00:46:38,880 --> 00:46:42,560
is development block grant money this is

934
00:46:40,880 --> 00:46:44,560
money that we do try to use but now that

935
00:46:42,560 --> 00:46:47,280
we're getting increases in other areas

936
00:46:44,560 --> 00:46:49,200
i'm perfectly comfortable doing it

937
00:46:47,280 --> 00:46:52,000
thank you

938
00:46:49,200 --> 00:46:52,000
any other comments

939
00:46:53,359 --> 00:46:58,749
may have a motion

is um mr city applied for a grant for

944
00:47:11,839 --> 00:47:17,359
the 2022 mvp healthcare campaign um this

945
00:47:15,200 --> 00:47:19,200
is going to be allocated um toward the

946
00:47:17,359 --> 00:47:21,680
purchase of an outdoor fitness port that

947
00:47:19,200 --> 00:47:23,599
will go into orbit park as part of the

948
00:47:21,680 --> 00:47:26,079
recent involvement there

949
00:47:23,599 --> 00:47:28,400
so this is just to accept the fifty

950
00:47:26,079 --> 00:47:30,240
thousand dollar grant from mvp for the

951
00:47:28,400 --> 00:47:32,559
fitness court um to be installed at what

952
00:47:30,240 --> 00:47:34,559
you want

953
00:47:32,559 --> 00:47:37,119
any comments

954
00:47:34,559 --> 00:47:39,520
we have a motion

955
00:47:37,119 --> 00:47:41,280
second all in favor uh

956
00:47:39,520 --> 00:47:44,800
the next item is authorized the

957
00:47:41,280 --> 00:47:46,319
allocation of 90 000 cdbg funds

958
00:47:44,800 --> 00:47:49,359
for the national fitness campaign

959
00:47:46,319 --> 00:47:50,720
outdoor fitness board misty so related

960
00:47:49,359 --> 00:47:52,880
to um

961
00:47:50,720 --> 00:47:54,000
related to the fitness court request

962
00:47:52,880 --> 00:47:55,119
this would be

963
00:47:54,000 --> 00:47:56,480
um

964
00:47:55,119 --> 00:47:58,240
this would be

965
00:47:56,480 --> 00:48:00,160
the authorization of the ninety thousand

966
00:47:58,240 --> 00:48:02,800
dollars to meet the local funders

967
00:48:00,160 --> 00:48:05,839
funding requirements for the um for the

968
00:48:02,800 --> 00:48:07,680
fitness court and orchard charts so

969
00:48:05,839 --> 00:48:09,200
it's basically just

970
00:48:07,680 --> 00:48:10,800
yeah it's the funding that the city will

971
00:48:09,200 --> 00:48:12,960
be contributing towards the fitness

972
00:48:10,800 --> 00:48:14,400
course

973
00:48:12,960 --> 00:48:16,559
any questions

974
00:48:14,400 --> 00:48:18,960
go ahead and support you so the 90 000

975
00:48:16,559 --> 00:48:21,200
is coming out of the 250 000 that we

976
00:48:18,960 --> 00:48:24,720
just yes

977
00:48:21,200 --> 00:48:27,520
yep okay and then the balance of that

978
00:48:24,720 --> 00:48:30,160
of the 250.

979
00:48:27,520 --> 00:48:32,160
the balance yes the 250 we're using what

980
00:48:30,160 --> 00:48:33,280
is the bet so 90 000 is going to go to

981
00:48:32,160 --> 00:48:36,240
this project

982
00:48:33,280 --> 00:48:38,240
so do we um do we have a

983
00:48:36,240 --> 00:48:39,599
have we decided where the other uh the

984
00:48:38,240 --> 00:48:41,520
balance of that's going to be allocated

985
00:48:39,599 --> 00:48:44,640
at this time

986
00:48:41,520 --> 00:48:49,280
yeah so some of the right now

987
00:48:44,640 --> 00:48:50,800
this is that 50 000 for the equipment

988
00:48:49,280 --> 00:48:52,720
then there's going to be installation

989
00:48:50,800 --> 00:48:56,240
costs that are associated with it which

990
00:48:52,720 --> 00:48:57,599
we're procuring through the policy um

991
00:48:56,240 --> 00:49:00,000
we're not going to put this thing

992
00:48:57,599 --> 00:49:02,640
together it's extremely intricate to put

993
00:49:00,000 --> 00:49:04,240
this together so that's anticipated

994
00:49:02,640 --> 00:49:05,920
uh to come out of there and we're

995
00:49:04,240 --> 00:49:08,160
working it has to be we have to get

996
00:49:05,920 --> 00:49:10,800
three prices for our policy because it's

997
00:49:08,160 --> 00:49:13,040
going to be over 3500 we're anticipating

998
00:49:10,800 --> 00:49:14,400
it's going to be less than 35 000 so

999
00:49:13,040 --> 00:49:16,559
depending on the ranges we're either

1000
00:49:14,400 --> 00:49:17,599
going to get verbal or written quotes so

1001
00:49:16,559 --> 00:49:20,079
that's going to come out of there and

1002
00:49:17,599 --> 00:49:21,599
then there is also a pad that goes with

1003
00:49:20,079 --> 00:49:24,720
it because these things are going to be

1004
00:49:21,599 --> 00:49:26,319
mounted to a pad so that also is going

1005
00:49:24,720 --> 00:49:28,559
to be in there which we're also looking

1006
00:49:26,319 --> 00:49:32,000
at either doing pricing for

1007
00:49:28,559 --> 00:49:34,160
our policy so both of those costs um we

1008
00:49:32,000 --> 00:49:35,359
don't need your explicit authorization

1009
00:49:34,160 --> 00:49:37,119
because through the purchasing policy

1010
00:49:35,359 --> 00:49:38,240
will be less than a bit amount but those

1011
00:49:37,119 --> 00:49:40,240
will come out of there and then the

1012
00:49:38,240 --> 00:49:41,680
balance of it is remaining for parks

1013
00:49:40,240 --> 00:49:43,920
particularly if we're looking at jerry

1014
00:49:41,680 --> 00:49:46,319
burell yes and that will be going to the

1015
00:49:43,920 --> 00:49:48,400
dairy rail park so once the project is

1016
00:49:46,319 --> 00:49:50,480
moved forward we have more concrete cost

1017
00:49:48,400 --> 00:49:52,160
items we can give you an update of what

1018
00:49:50,480 --> 00:49:54,240
the split would be okay but those are

1019
00:49:52,160 --> 00:49:56,079
our anticipated costs right now this is

1020
00:49:54,240 --> 00:49:58,319
because the grant the equipment we have

1021
00:49:56,079 --> 00:49:59,359
kind of set up and the rest of the cost

1022
00:49:58,319 --> 00:50:00,960
we're anticipating we're not going to

1023
00:49:59,359 --> 00:50:02,720
have to bid anything

1024
00:50:00,960 --> 00:50:03,920
um which is going to help us because

1025
00:50:02,720 --> 00:50:05,040
that's going to also save us time

1026
00:50:03,920 --> 00:50:07,440
because they know that we really want to

1027
00:50:05,040 --> 00:50:09,520
get this in for the late summer or i

1028
00:50:07,440 --> 00:50:12,400
mean late spring early summer

1029
00:50:09,520 --> 00:50:14,000
push this so we can use it um but that's

1030
00:50:12,400 --> 00:50:15,599
where we are right now so the balance

1031
00:50:14,000 --> 00:50:17,440
that they go over the next part is kind

1032
00:50:15,599 --> 00:50:18,960
of unknown okay so

1033
00:50:17,440 --> 00:50:20,720
thank you

1034
00:50:18,960 --> 00:50:21,760
of course

1035
00:50:20,720 --> 00:50:26,040
yes

1036
00:50:21,760 --> 00:50:26,040
let's go ahead okay please

1037
00:50:27,359 --> 00:50:31,599
is this the remainder of this money

1038
00:50:29,599 --> 00:50:33,520
you're thinking jerry grove

1039
00:50:31,599 --> 00:50:34,800
we're thinking about that for the likes

1040
00:50:33,520 --> 00:50:36,800
that we were talking about a couple of

1041
00:50:34,800 --> 00:50:38,240
weeks ago and we were talking about some

1042
00:50:36,800 --> 00:50:40,960
hardware money uh

1043
00:50:38,240 --> 00:50:40,960
possibly exactly

1044
00:50:43,520 --> 00:50:48,400
funding for the park we are the design

1045
00:50:45,920 --> 00:50:50,000
is in process so we have kind of an

1046
00:50:48,400 --> 00:50:51,440
estimate but until we put the bid out

1047
00:50:50,000 --> 00:50:53,599
we're not going to be we're not going to

1048
00:50:51,440 --> 00:50:56,079
know what the total is going to be um we

1049
00:50:53,599 --> 00:50:57,440
know there's a gap you know i i will say

1050
00:50:56,079 --> 00:50:58,880
i mean this is like any project that

1051
00:50:57,440 --> 00:51:00,960
you're going to hear from myself or

1052
00:50:58,880 --> 00:51:03,040
chris has been before anyone is that we

1053
00:51:00,960 --> 00:51:04,800
could always use more funds for our

1054
00:51:03,040 --> 00:51:06,880
parks so

1055
00:51:04,800 --> 00:51:09,040
the allocation of this money i would not

1056
00:51:06,880 --> 00:51:10,480
say would preclude us from pulling that

1057
00:51:09,040 --> 00:51:11,680
because we are going to have to add

1058
00:51:10,480 --> 00:51:13,839
alternatives we're going to be looking

1059
00:51:11,680 --> 00:51:15,440
to do more looking at you know there's

1060
00:51:13,839 --> 00:51:17,040
the base and then we're going to put in

1061
00:51:15,440 --> 00:51:18,960
for what we're looking at with that

1062
00:51:17,040 --> 00:51:20,720
alternative design either the tennis

1063
00:51:18,960 --> 00:51:23,280
courts or the basketball courts or some

1064
00:51:20,720 --> 00:51:24,720
other things and yes this could be used

1065
00:51:23,280 --> 00:51:26,160
towards the lighting but that may

1066
00:51:24,720 --> 00:51:28,640
prevent us doing one of those other

1067
00:51:26,160 --> 00:51:30,559
features so that's where you know as

1068
00:51:28,640 --> 00:51:32,480
much funding as we can as we can get

1069
00:51:30,559 --> 00:51:34,079
towards the project we would like to do

1070
00:51:32,480 --> 00:51:36,160
so that we can put it as much into the

1071
00:51:34,079 --> 00:51:37,760
park you know i always say to people

1072
00:51:36,160 --> 00:51:39,200
that this is public money this is not

1073
00:51:37,760 --> 00:51:40,079
going to build me fool you know you're

1074
00:51:39,200 --> 00:51:41,760
not going to come to my house and see

1075
00:51:40,079 --> 00:51:43,520
anything in my backyard it's all going

1076
00:51:41,760 --> 00:51:44,800
to the public into there so anything

1077
00:51:43,520 --> 00:51:46,240
that we can give

1078
00:51:44,800 --> 00:51:47,599
you know that would be great you know so

1079
00:51:46,240 --> 00:51:49,680
i would like to hope that it gets

1080
00:51:47,599 --> 00:51:51,680
reviewed on its own merits yeah and that

1081
00:51:49,680 --> 00:51:53,440
if it does then that's great and then to

1082
00:51:51,680 --> 00:51:54,240
maybe get a little bit more

1083
00:51:53,440 --> 00:51:55,680
yeah

1084
00:51:54,240 --> 00:51:57,920
go ahead mr man

1085
00:51:55,680 --> 00:51:59,040
and again just find out mr wallen said

1086
00:51:57,920 --> 00:52:02,400
that the

1087
00:51:59,040 --> 00:52:05,040
design work and jerry work morale park

1088
00:52:02,400 --> 00:52:07,760
is what i'll call the park proper

1089
00:52:05,040 --> 00:52:09,920
as i look at it those basketball courts

1090
00:52:07,760 --> 00:52:10,880
as you go farther along hamilton street

1091
00:52:09,920 --> 00:52:12,800
in

1092
00:52:10,880 --> 00:52:15,760
across the street there

1093
00:52:12,800 --> 00:52:17,040
it's foolish to

1094
00:52:15,760 --> 00:52:18,880
fix

1095
00:52:17,040 --> 00:52:20,000
this whole area up here and then leave

1096
00:52:18,880 --> 00:52:23,280
this

1097
00:52:20,000 --> 00:52:25,119
it's kind of a dilapidated embarrassed

1098
00:52:23,280 --> 00:52:28,400
section across the street

1099
00:52:25,119 --> 00:52:31,200
so as they're doing the work up

1100
00:52:28,400 --> 00:52:32,800
and then look at the whole thing

1101
00:52:31,200 --> 00:52:34,960
and

1102
00:52:32,800 --> 00:52:36,079
there's not going to be quite enough

1103
00:52:34,960 --> 00:52:38,559
money

1104
00:52:36,079 --> 00:52:40,480
on the table to do

1105
00:52:38,559 --> 00:52:43,040
everything right now

1106
00:52:40,480 --> 00:52:44,880
but i believe as we come through and get

1107
00:52:43,040 --> 00:52:47,040
some firmer numbers on what we're going

1108
00:52:44,880 --> 00:52:50,400
to actually have to come up with whether

1109
00:52:47,040 --> 00:52:52,319
it's arpa rearranging other things

1110
00:52:50,400 --> 00:52:53,680
to make sure that we've got a project

1111
00:52:52,319 --> 00:52:56,160
there that

1112
00:52:53,680 --> 00:52:57,920
does everything we want and that we're

1113
00:52:56,160 --> 00:52:59,359
all going to be

1114
00:52:57,920 --> 00:53:01,119
proud of it and the neighbors are going

1115
00:52:59,359 --> 00:53:02,000
to be appreciative of it

1116
00:53:01,119 --> 00:53:04,240
and

1117
00:53:02,000 --> 00:53:07,280
thank you for your consideration on the

1118
00:53:04,240 --> 00:53:09,599
orchard street park uh follow-up to uh

1119
00:53:07,280 --> 00:53:11,920
councilmember uh william's suggestion of

1120
00:53:09,599 --> 00:53:14,160
moving the council meetings around

1121
00:53:11,920 --> 00:53:18,160
maybe that we could have one at this

1122
00:53:14,160 --> 00:53:18,160
place and all the council could work out

1123
00:53:18,480 --> 00:53:22,839
just as a ribbon-cutting myself

1124
00:53:28,319 --> 00:53:32,800
any other questions

1125
00:53:30,559 --> 00:53:34,400
so the remaining is 160 000 i'm sure

1126
00:53:32,800 --> 00:53:37,520
you're going to come back to the console

1127
00:53:34,400 --> 00:53:39,839
for allocation for the 160 remaining the

1128
00:53:37,520 --> 00:53:42,640
balance of the 160. oh would we allocate

1129
00:53:39,839 --> 00:53:44,480
that yeah sure okay i mean the

1130
00:53:42,640 --> 00:53:46,559
application yeah but that's what i'm

1131
00:53:44,480 --> 00:53:48,079
getting here but it's going to be

1132
00:53:46,559 --> 00:53:50,000
you might not notice that we're doing it

1133
00:53:48,079 --> 00:53:51,760
so we'll put it up because if we you

program i don't i don't explicitly

1136
00:53:54,160 --> 00:53:58,319
detail the funding of the paving program

1137
00:53:56,480 --> 00:53:59,920
there may be multiple foreign sources a

1138
00:53:58,319 --> 00:54:01,920
lot of times the word we use is a

1139
00:53:59,920 --> 00:54:04,079
funding quilt sometimes when i bring

1140
00:54:01,920 --> 00:54:06,319
things such as psat i bring that here

1141
00:54:04,079 --> 00:54:08,160
you know there is federal there's local

1142
00:54:06,319 --> 00:54:10,000
there's metroplex most of the time they

1143
00:54:08,160 --> 00:54:12,160
don't get into that detail but if you

1144
00:54:10,000 --> 00:54:13,920

yeah if you don't mind just let us know

1146
00:54:13,920 --> 00:54:18,720
how the allocation is going with regards

1147
00:54:15,760 --> 00:54:21,119
to the remaining 160 would appreciate it

1148
00:54:18,720 --> 00:54:23,920
any other questions regarding this item

1149
00:54:21,119 --> 00:54:23,920
may have a motion

1150
00:54:24,150 --> 00:54:32,350
[Music]

1151
00:54:37,119 --> 00:54:42,160
development plan

1152
00:54:39,760 --> 00:54:44,480
there's 13 items on the agenda and the

1153
00:54:42,160 --> 00:54:47,920
first item of secret determination for

1154
00:54:44,480 --> 00:54:50,559
barrett street and south avenue yeah

1155
00:54:47,920 --> 00:54:52,319
so this is relation to you know what was

1156
00:54:50,559 --> 00:54:53,680
on the agenda two weeks ago there was

1157
00:54:52,319 --> 00:54:55,119
some questions about the planning

1158
00:54:53,680 --> 00:54:58,160
commission meeting and the minutes for

1159
00:54:55,119 --> 00:55:00,079
that um i did provide those minutes um

1160
00:54:58,160 --> 00:55:02,799
you know we didn't see

1161
00:55:00,079 --> 00:55:04,839
as much there wasn't much opposition to

1162
00:55:02,799 --> 00:55:05,839
the project it was more

1163
00:55:04,839 --> 00:55:07,520
questions sort of

1164
00:55:05,839 --> 00:55:09,440
you know reservations about what does

1165
00:55:07,520 --> 00:55:10,319
this mean you know for the neighborhood

1166
00:55:09,440 --> 00:55:11,920
and

1167
00:55:10,319 --> 00:55:14,640
you know so hopefully you've had a

1168
00:55:11,920 --> 00:55:18,760
chance to look through that but um

1169
00:55:14,640 --> 00:55:18,760
is there any questions about that

1170
00:55:20,160 --> 00:55:23,520
any questions anymore yeah

1171
00:55:23,680 --> 00:55:26,799
all right then that takes up

1172
00:55:25,760 --> 00:55:28,799
motion

1173
00:55:26,799 --> 00:55:31,200
so

1174
00:55:28,799 --> 00:55:33,440
this this first one would be for the

1175
00:55:31,200 --> 00:55:35,040

1176
00:55:33,440 --> 00:55:38,400

1180
00:55:42,640 --> 00:55:46,079
um yep related to the same thing this is

1181
00:55:44,480 --> 00:55:47,599
just the recommendation to pass an

1182
00:55:46,079 --> 00:55:51,280
ordinance um changing the zoning

1183
00:55:47,599 --> 00:55:54,240
district from r2 to the c4

1184
00:55:51,280 --> 00:55:56,720
any questions around that

1185
00:55:54,240 --> 00:55:59,280
second all those in favor

1186
00:55:56,720 --> 00:56:01,280
thank you all right thank you

1187
00:55:59,280 --> 00:56:03,040
okay the next item on the agenda is to

1188
00:56:01,280 --> 00:56:04,480
award three bids and contracts for this

1189
00:56:03,040 --> 00:56:06,960
connected police department fire and

1190
00:56:04,480 --> 00:56:08,160
raid mr wallon

1191
00:56:06,960 --> 00:56:10,400
so

1192
00:56:08,160 --> 00:56:11,119
as uh we may or may not be aware

1193
00:56:10,400 --> 00:56:13,119
the

1194
00:56:11,119 --> 00:56:14,880
seneca police department actually has a

1195
00:56:13,119 --> 00:56:15,920
firing range

1196
00:56:14,880 --> 00:56:18,079
fire

1197
00:56:15,920 --> 00:56:19,040
has not functioned in quite some time

1198
00:56:18,079 --> 00:56:21,440
um

1199
00:56:19,040 --> 00:56:22,960
chief sieber did receive a grant to uh

1200
00:56:21,440 --> 00:56:24,240
upgrade the facility and get it back to

1201
00:56:22,960 --> 00:56:26,079
functioning we have been working with a

1202
00:56:24,240 --> 00:56:29,280
consultant taking a little longer than

1203
00:56:26,079 --> 00:56:31,440
we hoped but we have finally put out a

1204
00:56:29,280 --> 00:56:33,440
bid for the work

1205
00:56:31,440 --> 00:56:34,799
what you may see is there are actually

1206
00:56:33,440 --> 00:56:37,280
four given the

1207
00:56:34,799 --> 00:56:39,119
amount of money that this contract is it

1208
00:56:37,280 --> 00:56:42,160
is a essentially

1209
00:56:39,119 --> 00:56:44,079
a million dollar contract in a way

1210
00:56:42,160 --> 00:56:46,400
we have to follow wick's law which

1211
00:56:44,079 --> 00:56:47,920
separates all of the

1212
00:56:46,400 --> 00:56:50,480
duties there's mechanical there's

1213
00:56:47,920 --> 00:56:51,760
electrical plumbing in general

1214
00:56:50,480 --> 00:56:53,920
we put it out

1215
00:56:51,760 --> 00:56:56,559
we called it a

1216
00:56:53,920 --> 00:56:59,440
firing range ventilation upgrade we got

1217
00:56:56,559 --> 00:57:01,440
three we did not get a gc bit

1218
00:56:59,440 --> 00:57:03,839
we think that was due to the fact that

1219
00:57:01,440 --> 00:57:05,359
it was called spd

1220
00:57:03,839 --> 00:57:07,680
ventilation because the majority of the

1221
00:57:05,359 --> 00:57:09,920
work is in here's ventilation but the gc

1222
00:57:07,680 --> 00:57:12,160
component we did not get any prices so

1223
00:57:09,920 --> 00:57:13,760
we met with aaron and we discussed it

1224
00:57:12,160 --> 00:57:15,440
and we said we were comfortable with

1225
00:57:13,760 --> 00:57:16,720
these bids they were

1226
00:57:15,440 --> 00:57:18,240
actually i think a little less than our

1227
00:57:16,720 --> 00:57:20,160
estimate they're contractors that we've

1228
00:57:18,240 --> 00:57:22,880
worked with so what we're doing is we're

1229
00:57:20,160 --> 00:57:24,960
putting out the gc pro on wednesday with

1230
00:57:22,880 --> 00:57:26,960
a new title called

1231
00:57:24,960 --> 00:57:29,119
firing range reconstruction because we

1232
00:57:26,960 --> 00:57:31,359
want to hit the ticklers on the web to

1233
00:57:29,119 --> 00:57:33,760
make sure that gc see it

1234
00:57:31,359 --> 00:57:35,200
so this is three of the four they are

1235
00:57:33,760 --> 00:57:37,440
independent

1236
00:57:35,200 --> 00:57:39,680
and then once we have the gc back and

1237
00:57:37,440 --> 00:57:40,799
awarded we can begin the project

1238
00:57:39,680 --> 00:57:42,960
so

1239
00:57:40,799 --> 00:57:45,599
are there questions mr probably yeah so

1240
00:57:42,960 --> 00:57:47,599
the group covers the entire cost of this

1241
00:57:45,599 --> 00:57:50,000
no okay the grant covers a portion of

1242
00:57:47,599 --> 00:57:51,839
the cost we're going to be using uh in

1243
00:57:50,000 --> 00:57:53,359
our capital budget not

1244
00:57:51,839 --> 00:57:56,000
in our capital budget we have a

1245
00:57:53,359 --> 00:57:58,400
facilities line item for city facilities

1246
00:57:56,000 --> 00:58:00,240
we'll be using the city's facilities

1247
00:57:58,400 --> 00:58:02,880
line to cover that portion of them

1248
00:58:00,240 --> 00:58:06,960
because the grant

1249
00:58:02,880 --> 00:58:08,799
the grant was for let's say the

1250
00:58:06,960 --> 00:58:11,520
pertinence is inside of it the the

1251
00:58:08,799 --> 00:58:13,119
tracks the burn those things but as we

1252
00:58:11,520 --> 00:58:13,920
started researching

1253
00:58:13,119 --> 00:58:15,760
um

1254
00:58:13,920 --> 00:58:18,079
the actual ventilation

1255
00:58:15,760 --> 00:58:20,000
the engineering components of how to get

1256
00:58:18,079 --> 00:58:23,119
air flow how to make sure that when you

1257
00:58:20,000 --> 00:58:25,520
shoot the lead goes down range the fumes

1258
00:58:23,119 --> 00:58:27,200
go out we have a hepa filtration system

1259
00:58:25,520 --> 00:58:29,200
it's actually you know a lot more

1260
00:58:27,200 --> 00:58:31,359
advanced than it is so we put the

1261
00:58:29,200 --> 00:58:32,559
capital budget together to cover those

1262
00:58:31,359 --> 00:58:34,160
costs

1263
00:58:32,559 --> 00:58:35,760
so it's once again

1264
00:58:34,160 --> 00:58:38,880
a couple different fund sources like we

1265
00:58:35,760 --> 00:58:40,720
say but we we do have it together um and

1266
00:58:38,880 --> 00:58:42,079
uh we're going to be ready to move

1267
00:58:40,720 --> 00:58:43,680
forward but no the grant couldn't it

1268
00:58:42,079 --> 00:58:45,520
didn't cover all of it because the cost

1269
00:58:43,680 --> 00:58:47,599
just went up we also had uh you weren't

1270
00:58:45,520 --> 00:58:49,760
here at the time about two years ago um

1271
00:58:47,599 --> 00:58:51,920
there was lead in asbestos

1272
00:58:49,760 --> 00:58:54,079
we used a good amount of money i led an

1273
00:58:51,920 --> 00:58:56,160
asbestos abatement to

1274
00:58:54,079 --> 00:58:58,400
evade the whole area and clean it up we

1275
00:58:56,160 --> 00:59:00,319
had to clean the floors actually mop

1276
00:58:58,400 --> 00:59:02,160
them like several times to get let off

1277
00:59:00,319 --> 00:59:04,720
the floor so it's a it's an interesting

1278
00:59:02,160 --> 00:59:06,720
process but it is going to be uh you

1279
00:59:04,720 --> 00:59:08,559
know a very functioning range that they

1280
00:59:06,720 --> 00:59:10,480
can use hopefully for the next you know

1281
00:59:08,559 --> 00:59:12,400
30 40 years so that's what we're hoping

1282
00:59:10,480 --> 00:59:13,839
for but um this is for the three and

1283
00:59:12,400 --> 00:59:16,160
then i'll be bringing you the fourth

1284
00:59:13,839 --> 00:59:18,240
once we have it in a couple of weeks and

1285
00:59:16,160 --> 00:59:20,000
then from there we'll move forward with

1286
00:59:18,240 --> 00:59:21,520
hopefully construction get get it all

1287
00:59:20,000 --> 00:59:23,359
functioning again

1288
00:59:21,520 --> 00:59:25,680
any other questions mr what's it aaron

1289
00:59:23,359 --> 00:59:27,839
yeah just uh talking aside with mr

1290
00:59:25,680 --> 00:59:30,720
colding i think we should pass this in

1291
00:59:27,839 --> 00:59:34,640
individual um contract one e

1292
00:59:30,720 --> 00:59:36,960
sorry 1b 1c and 1d there are separate um

1293
00:59:34,640 --> 00:59:38,720
subcontractors yeah that'd be great

1294
00:59:36,960 --> 00:59:40,640
so three three approvals i would like to

1295
00:59:38,720 --> 00:59:42,559
recommend that we do them individually

1296
00:59:40,640 --> 00:59:44,640
okay

1297
00:59:42,559 --> 00:59:45,520
are there any other questions before i

1298
00:59:44,640 --> 00:59:47,599
no

1299
00:59:45,520 --> 00:59:50,559
okay so first of all i'll entertain a

1300
00:59:47,599 --> 00:59:54,000
motion on contract one b

1301
00:59:50,559 --> 00:59:56,319
so second all those in favor all right

1302
00:59:54,000 --> 00:59:58,160
uh second uh and shiny motion on

1303

so

1305
00:59:58,799 --> 01:00:03,680
second all those in favor all right

1306
01:00:01,359 --> 01:00:05,520

01:00:05,520 --> 01:00:08,400
so

1309
01:00:06,319 --> 01:00:09,680
second all those in favor all right all

1310
01:00:08,400 --> 01:00:10,720
right thank you

1311
01:00:09,680 --> 01:00:12,799
all right and we'll just make sure

1312
01:00:10,720 --> 01:00:15,119
that's reflected in there all right

1313
01:00:12,799 --> 01:00:17,280
thank you um the

1314
01:00:15,119 --> 01:00:19,200
next item on the agenda is the award

1315
01:00:17,280 --> 01:00:21,599
vision contracts with the bail park

1316
01:00:19,200 --> 01:00:23,520
improvement uh project phase two

1317
01:00:21,599 --> 01:00:25,280
yes thank you so this you you might

1318
01:00:23,520 --> 01:00:27,440
recall seeing this before

1319
01:00:25,280 --> 01:00:29,599
um this is actually the third time we've

1320
01:00:27,440 --> 01:00:31,599
bid this hopefully the last thing is

1321
01:00:29,599 --> 01:00:33,760
we're talking about bail park tree

1322
01:00:31,599 --> 01:00:36,240
removal um

1323
01:00:33,760 --> 01:00:38,000
previously we had a discrepancy in the

1324
01:00:36,240 --> 01:00:39,599
bid documents that meant that we had to

1325
01:00:38,000 --> 01:00:41,599
rebid it there was some language that

1326
01:00:39,599 --> 01:00:45,200
got left in from the previous bid

1327
01:00:41,599 --> 01:00:48,319
we did receive three bids the bids were

1328
01:00:45,200 --> 01:00:50,559
almost identical than before

1329
01:00:48,319 --> 01:00:53,119
the low is still the same as the second

1330
01:00:50,559 --> 01:00:54,480
time that we bid it the cost per tree

1331
01:00:53,119 --> 01:00:56,960
might have actually come down a little

1332
01:00:54,480 --> 01:00:58,640
bit but uh and then this particular

1333
01:00:56,960 --> 01:01:00,160
bidder we're doing they just to let you

1334
01:00:58,640 --> 01:01:01,760
in behind the curtain a little bit we're

1335
01:01:00,160 --> 01:01:03,920
doing something to a little bit more

1336
01:01:01,760 --> 01:01:05,839
proactive on my office where we're

1337
01:01:03,920 --> 01:01:07,920
receiving the bids we are not

1338
01:01:05,839 --> 01:01:09,839
immediately rushing them to this table

1339
01:01:07,920 --> 01:01:11,119
so we receive the bids on wednesday we

1340
01:01:09,839 --> 01:01:13,359
used to bring them right to the

1341
01:01:11,119 --> 01:01:15,119
legislative and then monday so now what

1342
01:01:13,359 --> 01:01:16,799
we're doing is we're taking a step back

1343
01:01:15,119 --> 01:01:18,400
we're working with ron

1344
01:01:16,799 --> 01:01:20,240
and we're really making sure that we

1345
01:01:18,400 --> 01:01:22,559
have all of our utilization paperwork

1346
01:01:20,240 --> 01:01:24,319
that ron's having a moment to vet them a

1347
01:01:22,559 --> 01:01:26,400
little bit more thoroughly and then

1348
01:01:24,319 --> 01:01:28,000
we're moving forward so in this case

1349
01:01:26,400 --> 01:01:29,599
uh they've been working with ron

1350
01:01:28,000 --> 01:01:31,119
actually for four weeks because they

1351
01:01:29,599 --> 01:01:32,960
knew that we had to rebid it and i

1352
01:01:31,119 --> 01:01:34,400
believe that you've been happy with the

1353
01:01:32,960 --> 01:01:35,920
progress that you've seen you've had

1354
01:01:34,400 --> 01:01:38,079
some good emails back and forth they now

1355
01:01:35,920 --> 01:01:40,400
have what three subs that they're going

1356
01:01:38,079 --> 01:01:42,720
to be using absolutely

1357
01:01:40,400 --> 01:01:43,760
so um so that's kind of a new process

1358
01:01:42,720 --> 01:01:46,400
you're not going to see things coming

1359
01:01:43,760 --> 01:01:48,000
here as fast because instead of us

1360
01:01:46,400 --> 01:01:50,559
awarding and then going through the

1361
01:01:48,000 --> 01:01:52,160
process we're going to go through the

1362
01:01:50,559 --> 01:01:54,000
process make sure we're on the same page

1363
01:01:52,160 --> 01:01:55,599
then award just so that we don't get

1364
01:01:54,000 --> 01:01:57,520
caught in any kind of a you know the

1365
01:01:55,599 --> 01:01:58,880
carrot is the award

1366
01:01:57,520 --> 01:02:01,039
so we want to make sure that we're doing

1367
01:01:58,880 --> 01:02:02,559
it in that process and so it's worked in

1368
01:02:01,039 --> 01:02:03,440
this process we're doing it a couple

1369
01:02:02,559 --> 01:02:04,319
others

1370
01:02:03,440 --> 01:02:05,839
so

1371
01:02:04,319 --> 01:02:07,920
well thank you for that consideration

1372
01:02:05,839 --> 01:02:09,839
sure is that just a question so is that

1373
01:02:07,920 --> 01:02:11,920
a best practice that they can do moving

1374
01:02:09,839 --> 01:02:13,680
forward for all projects or just kind of

1375
01:02:11,920 --> 01:02:15,680
my office sure yeah

1376
01:02:13,680 --> 01:02:16,880
that's what we've started to do and i

1377
01:02:15,680 --> 01:02:20,160
think it's worked better that way don't

1378
01:02:16,880 --> 01:02:20,160
you ron yeah absolutely

1379
01:02:23,920 --> 01:02:28,480
all right the remaining items are all

1380
01:02:25,760 --> 01:02:30,480
for property sales and we'll be um

1381
01:02:28,480 --> 01:02:32,319
an executive session so i'd like to

1382
01:02:30,480 --> 01:02:34,559
entertain a motion to recess

1383
01:02:32,319 --> 01:02:37,119
so second all of the favorite

1384
01:02:34,559 --> 01:02:37,119
we're reset

1385
01:02:37,280 --> 01:02:40,280
so

1386
01:02:49,920 --> 01:02:54,240
yeah

1387
01:02:50,799 --> 01:02:56,559
yeah so i would like to get a motion

1388
01:02:54,240 --> 01:02:56,559
second

1389
01:02:56,640 --> 01:03:01,119
oh

1390
01:02:58,480 --> 01:03:01,119
all in favor

1391
01:03:06,240 --> 01:03:09,839
interest

1392
01:03:07,680 --> 01:03:11,599
related to uh foreclosure action the

1393
01:03:09,839 --> 01:03:14,240
other one is a claim

1394
01:03:11,599 --> 01:03:17,039
okay so so are you saying they're both

1395
01:03:14,240 --> 01:03:18,400
should be an executive session okay um

1396
01:03:17,039 --> 01:03:20,480
with regard to

1397
01:03:18,400 --> 01:03:23,839
number four that from government

1398
01:03:20,480 --> 01:03:26,319
operations earlier yeah

01:03:26,319 --> 01:03:29,599
is around

1401
01:03:28,079 --> 01:03:31,680
i just want to make sure that it's

1402
01:03:29,599 --> 01:03:34,400
covered by executive session it has to

1403
01:03:31,680 --> 01:03:36,079
fall within the scope of what's allowed

1404
01:03:34,400 --> 01:03:38,000
under open meetings law

1405
01:03:36,079 --> 01:03:41,039
