[25:57] regards to the Paving this and that and
[26:01] the only one that thought to help me was
[26:03] this young
[26:04] man and uh what they did do then is
[26:07] patched in front of my house I I don't
[26:09] want my street done but like I'm
[26:12] concerned about all of wood lawn you
[26:14] know so you know I see that they started
[26:18] it but uh we got to get going with more
[26:20] stuff it's too you know we can't sit
[26:24] here and discuss things and not have
[26:26] anything resolved you know you know it
[26:29] takes time and money I know that but uh
[26:32] got to get with it but I hopefully we're
[26:34] on the right thing here but uh I'm
[26:38] grateful I just you know I'm just an
[26:41] ordinary taxpayer and our taxes that we pay pay your salaries
[26:49] so maybe everyone can take a task on and
[26:53] help the city better than we're doing we
[26:56] sit here uh two Mondays a month and
[27:00] really more should be done I'm a retiree
[27:03] from the city and I know what goes on
[27:05] and stuff but I hope things are going in
[27:08] the right
[27:09] direction and uh that's all I wanted to
[27:12] say thank you very much
[27:15] huh thank
[27:19] you um Reverend H Reverend Jim
[27:26] coming Madam president City council
[27:28] members as you may recall when arpa
[27:31] funding became available we had
[27:33] petitioned for a small pretty small
[27:36] share of that funding uh to create a
[27:39] basketball Park uh at court Park uh in a
[27:43] piece of land that is bordered by Pearl
[27:46] Street Main and Wing um and uh
[27:51] we I'm not necessarily here to talk
[27:54] about that per se but really to talk
[27:56] about the fact that that the motivation
[27:59] behind that request came from the people
[28:01] in our community it wasn't uh Pastor Jim
[28:05] coming up with something out of his
[28:07] robes uh but it was it was really came
[28:10] from uh discussions that I had with the
[28:13] young people in our neighborhood uh and
[28:16] it was also a concern for their safety
[28:19] as well because uh as I've mentioned uh
[28:22] a few times um Pearl Street is a place
[28:26] where cars whip uh they really they go
[28:28] through very quickly uh and you know a a
[28:32] Mis bounced ball and somebody running
[28:34] after it without kind of thinking and
[28:37] then tragedy occurs so you know we want
[28:40] my main concern is the safety of the
[28:42] Youth of our community and an
[28:45] opportunity for those youth uh to be
[28:47] able to do those things that the arpa
[28:49] funds were created for to pre to provide
[28:51] place of recreation physical activity uh
[28:54] and health um so with that I brought
[28:58] along with me uh a young man uh dead nut
[29:01] Singh who lives in the neighborhood uh
[29:03] dnut um he's going to have all your jobs
[29:06] one day uh he is the sharpest young man
[29:09] I have ever met and that includes myself
[29:13] uh I'm not young anymore but uh he's super sharp uh super intelligent
[29:18] and and a beautiful representative of
[29:20] his community so I'd like you to please
[29:23] listen to him uh this evening and I
[29:26] promise I did not give him words
[29:28] uh so thank you thank

[32:38] are posted on social media uh one is
[32:40] about 911 and when to call 911 and I'm
[32:44] just going to quickly uh go through that
[32:46] which is when you smell smoke or see a
[32:48] fire when you witness or are the victim
[32:50] of a crime when you witness or are
[32:53] involved in a serious accident uh when
[32:55] there's an emergency illness or a
[32:57] suspected poisoning when a child senior
[33:00] citizen or handicapped person is lost
[33:03] confused frightened or needs special
[33:05] assistance these are those are
[33:07] potentially dangerous situations and the
[33:10] fire department would really like you to
[33:11] call 911 in those situations um and then
[33:15] my last thing is just that we all know
[33:17] that there's more and more um ebikes and
[33:19] E Scooters out on the street and uh we
[33:23] really you know there's some safety
[33:25] precautions regarding the the especially
[33:28] the batteries that are part of uh those
[33:31] um those vehicles um so really want
[33:34] folks that have these kinds of of
[33:37] vehicles to understand uh the safety
[33:39] regulations around the lithium batteries
[33:41] to make sure that if they're charging
[33:43] the battery that they're charging the
[33:45] battery with the appropriate uh charger
[33:47] that came with the battery if they have
[33:49] to replace the battery that they're
[33:50] replacing it with the same kind of
[33:52] battery um there's all sorts of things
[33:54] that are part of the manufacturer's
[33:55] guidelines so I just would really asked
[33:58] folks to uh pay attention to all of
[34:00] those um depending on which vehicle you
[34:04] have because uh more and more we're
[34:06] hearing about various fires that are
[34:08] being caused by these by these uh
[34:10] Vehicles if the safety precautions are
[34:12] not being uh being adhered to and that's
[34:16] it others Mr
[34:19] [Music]
[34:20] Farley thank you mad president first of
[34:22] all I want to say thank you for everyone
[34:23] that came out to speak tonight
[34:25] especially young treat uh treat when you
[34:26] see young people com to to talk to us
[34:28] helps us kind of remind of of of our why are we doing things that we're doing
[34:33] so I really greatly appreciate that um
[34:36] my thing I kind of want to just talk
[34:38] about really fast is just you know I
[34:40] know people have heard one way or
[34:42] another seen the news and just know that
[34:44] our community is in deep mourning right
[34:46] now um through the loss of life of of
[34:49] four young people and other people um
[34:52] and in in different accidents and things
[34:53] have just been happening so um I just
[34:55] want to remind everyone that this is a
[34:57] Time time for us to reflect um to be
[35:00] kind to one another to be patient to one
[35:02] another and extend each other the the grace that is needed um because
[35:06] these things happen and the Ripple
[35:08] effects go deep um and and and and
[35:11] spread reach far beyond what we
[35:12] sometimes think about from not just the
[35:14] families and friends but even to the
[35:15] First Responders who um have to respond
[35:18] to these things and then have the
[35:19] daunting task of notifying families that
[35:22] people have passed away so um just that
[35:25] was just particularly sing in my mind

[35:30] with everyone to just remind that people
[35:31] are in mourning and and and you know
