1
00:00:00,270 --> 00:00:14,750
Order. Today is Tuesday, August 18, 2026. This is a 15th regular meeting of 2026 and a 67th meeting of the current term of the metropolitan council of Nashville and Davidson County.

2
00:00:15,070 --> 00:00:22,670
Roughly one year from today on August 17, 2027, we will have the final meeting of this council term.

3
00:00:22,670 --> 00:00:27,830
That means there are 23 regular meetings remaining this term.

4
00:00:28,350 --> 00:00:34,410
As Nashville's elected policy makers, I know you will use this remaining time and these

5
00:00:34,410 --> 00:00:35,610
meetings wisely.

6
00:00:36,690 --> 00:00:40,890
We'll all members of the council as well as the public, please rise for the invocation

7
00:00:40,890 --> 00:00:43,870
and remain standing for the pledge of allegiance.

8
00:00:45,810 --> 00:00:51,090
The invocation is being offered this evening by District 22 Council Member, Sherry Weiner,

9
00:00:51,090 --> 00:00:53,210
Council member, you are recognized.

10
00:00:54,110 --> 00:00:55,070
Thank you, Vice-Mayor.

11
00:00:55,350 --> 00:01:00,190
Let us pause and remember the responsibility that's entrusted to us.

12
00:01:00,650 --> 00:01:06,090
We're here to serve the people of Nashville to listen carefully, to deliberate thoughtfully,

13
00:01:07,070 --> 00:01:11,470
and to make decisions that strengthen our communities and protect the public good.

14
00:01:12,210 --> 00:01:17,290
As we enter the final year of this term, we do so during a time of uncertainty,

15
00:01:17,290 --> 00:01:21,250
diversity, division, and increasing noise around us.

16
00:01:21,590 --> 00:01:27,530
Granted, the wisdom to rise above distractions, personal differences, and political pressures,

17
00:01:28,150 --> 00:01:31,590
and remain focused on the work that we were elected to do.

18
00:01:31,850 --> 00:01:35,130
Help us lead with humility, fairness, and integrity.

19
00:01:36,170 --> 00:01:42,150
Remind us that disagreement doesn't require disrespect, that strong leadership is not driven

20
00:01:42,150 --> 00:01:47,110
about personality and that our personal feelings should never outweigh our responsibility

21
00:01:47,610 --> 00:01:49,310
to the people that we represent.

22
00:01:51,110 --> 00:01:56,670
We also pause to remember those whose lives have been forever altered, or lost, through

23
00:01:56,670 --> 00:01:59,090
no action or fault of their own.

24
00:01:59,710 --> 00:02:05,650
We held especially close the children who do not understand the world around them.

25
00:02:05,950 --> 00:02:10,850
The decisions of adults are the circumstances that have changed their lives forever.

26
00:02:10,850 --> 00:02:17,090
May they be surrounded by protection, compassion, comfort, and hope.

27
00:02:17,990 --> 00:02:20,330
May we consider each issue on its merits.

28
00:02:21,050 --> 00:02:26,250
Treat one another with dignity and remember that our words and actions reach far beyond

29
00:02:26,250 --> 00:02:26,890
this chamber.

30
00:02:27,750 --> 00:02:34,070
They affect families, neighborhoods, businesses, and residents who depend on us to govern

31
00:02:34,070 --> 00:02:35,070
responsibly.

32
00:02:35,070 --> 00:02:42,150
Keep our motives honorable, our judgments sound, our hearts compassionate, and our attention

33
00:02:42,150 --> 00:02:44,970
centered on the needs of Nashville, amen.

34
00:02:47,740 --> 00:02:53,720
I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States and America, and to the Republic

35
00:02:53,720 --> 00:03:00,880
of which it stands, one nation under God, indivisible with liberty and justice for all.

36
00:03:06,550 --> 00:03:07,990
Thank you, Councilmember Weiner.

37
00:03:09,690 --> 00:03:15,190
Welcome, council and community members. I want to take this opportunity to thank all of

38
00:03:15,190 --> 00:03:20,530
this year's committee chairs, especially several outgoing chairs for their extra service

39
00:03:20,530 --> 00:03:26,390
and leadership this past year. For those chairs who led their final meetings yesterday

40
00:03:26,390 --> 00:03:31,450
and today, they will all continue to serve on their committees and are an important part

41
00:03:31,450 --> 00:03:37,290
of this body retaining its institutional memory for policy work. Speaking of our policy work,

42
00:03:37,290 --> 00:03:41,910
I want to let the council and the legal community know that online today for the first time

43
00:03:41,910 --> 00:03:44,650
is a publicly-posed position with Metro HR.

44
00:03:45,190 --> 00:03:50,850
The job opening for Special Council and Legislative Services Division Director is live.

45
00:03:51,770 --> 00:03:55,810
As I've worked in partnership with the Executive Committee, Council Office staff and our

46
00:03:55,810 --> 00:04:00,970
consultant partner to help evolve the Council Office operational model to meet the council's

47
00:04:00,970 --> 00:04:05,350
changing needs and the expectations and demands of a rapidly growing city.

48
00:04:05,350 --> 00:04:10,370
We are taking us on what new approach to this position, and we encourage experiences

49
00:04:10,370 --> 00:04:15,430
attorneys interested in municipal policy and leading a legal services team to apply.

50
00:04:16,250 --> 00:04:21,290
I also want to thank and our MS Council Wilson for continuing to serve the Council so

51
00:04:21,290 --> 00:04:23,170
well during this transitional period.

52
00:04:23,630 --> 00:04:30,290
This special council job application will close with Metro HR on September 7th.

53
00:04:30,470 --> 00:04:30,790
All right.

54
00:04:30,990 --> 00:04:35,330
On a sad note, I know the Council joins me in extending our condolences.

55
00:04:35,330 --> 00:04:40,650
on the passing of the Honorable Jamie Isabel, the former Council Member for District 2.

56
00:04:41,510 --> 00:04:45,010
I have sent a letter on behalf of the Council to his family to express the Council's

57
00:04:45,010 --> 00:04:47,070
gratitude for his service to Nashville.

58
00:04:47,730 --> 00:04:52,930
I understand that Council Member Tames is preparing a resolution to honor him, and as that

59
00:04:52,930 --> 00:04:57,870
resolution will no doubt share, he was an entrepreneur from a young age, a graduate of

60
00:04:57,870 --> 00:05:03,370
TSU, he chaired two council committees and was a founder of the Black Caucus of the Council.

61
00:05:03,370 --> 00:05:10,850
The Council Office has shared the arrangements for the visitation and provided a flag of the metropolitan government to Mr.

62
00:05:10,990 --> 00:05:11,870
Isabel's family.

63
00:05:13,290 --> 00:05:22,970
We encourage all former Council members to please stay in touch with the Council Office so that we can continue to share in Metro's celebrations and also in sad times like these.

64
00:05:24,330 --> 00:05:31,030
All right, without objection we will suspend the calling of the role and ask the clerk to please record the names of the members present throughout the meeting.

65
00:05:31,030 --> 00:05:36,030
Is there a motion for approval of the minutes of the meeting of August 4th?

66
00:05:37,150 --> 00:05:38,250
Is there a second?

67
00:05:39,170 --> 00:05:39,570
All right.

68
00:05:40,210 --> 00:05:47,030
There is a motion properly seconded with out objection and seeing no one seeking to be recognized

69
00:05:47,030 --> 00:05:48,990
for a change to the minutes.

70
00:05:50,010 --> 00:05:50,210
All right.

71
00:05:50,490 --> 00:05:53,210
The minutes of the meeting of August 4th are approved.

72
00:05:53,950 --> 00:05:56,770
Mr. Clerk, are there any messages from the mayor?

73
00:05:57,430 --> 00:05:58,630
There are no messages from the mayor.

74
00:05:58,950 --> 00:05:59,230
All right.

75
00:05:59,230 --> 00:06:00,270
Thank you, Mr. Clerk.

76
00:06:01,790 --> 00:06:02,170
All right.

77
00:06:02,850 --> 00:06:08,250
Next, off the top of our agenda, section E for elections,

78
00:06:10,490 --> 00:06:12,090
members will see their election

79
00:06:12,090 --> 00:06:18,550
tablets are open for item E1 regarding the Auditorium Commission.

80
00:06:19,710 --> 00:06:27,630
This is the consideration of three nominees to fill two vacancies on the commission,

81
00:06:27,630 --> 00:06:54,390
With terms expiring on June 30 of 2029, that election is to be held today right now and this election for the two vacancies among three persons requires 21 votes for each person to be able to be elected to this position.

82
00:06:54,390 --> 00:07:02,590
And so, with that, Mr. Clark, can you open a vote on members' tablets, please?

83
00:07:18,300 --> 00:07:25,460
Ms. Weiner appears to need some assistance with her tablet. If any other council members need

84
00:07:25,460 --> 00:07:28,340
a technical assistance, if you would raise your hands.

85
00:08:16,350 --> 00:08:19,050
All right, with all votes in, Mr. Clark, please show

86
00:08:19,050 --> 00:08:20,370

87
00:08:31,500 --> 00:08:41,060
right, Council has elected Ron Deel Jr. with 29 votes and Rick Rodriguez with 23 votes.

88

89
00:09:04,470 --> 00:09:07,410

00:15:26,870 --> 00:15:30,530
as your recognized council member, I would like to nominate two people,

166
00:15:30,890 --> 00:15:34,770
Will Rose Enthall and Brian Drubnik.

167
00:15:35,930 --> 00:15:42,010
Okay, council member Allen has nominated Will Rose Enthall and Brian Drubnik,

168
00:15:45,540 --> 00:15:47,880
okay, council member

169
00:15:47,880 --> 00:15:49,720
Parker, your recognized sir.

170
00:15:50,060 --> 00:15:53,040
Thank you, Vice Mayor, I'd like to nominate Chase Markham.

171
00:15:53,040 --> 00:15:58,140
Okay, Council Member Parker has nominated Chase Markham.

172
00:16:02,460 --> 00:16:03,940
Right, are there any additional nominations?

173
00:16:05,100 --> 00:16:07,520
All right, I will declare those nominations closed.

174
00:16:08,580 --> 00:16:16,000
Next agenda item H2 regarding our President Pro Tem of the Council.

175
00:16:16,620 --> 00:16:23,700
Members have received a memo from me about this annual nomination and election process on August the 10th.

176
00:16:23,700 --> 00:16:33,920
This is for the final service annual service with that term expiring on August 31st of 2027.

177
00:16:33,920 --> 00:16:37,540
We will hold this election at the next council meeting.

178
00:16:38,120 --> 00:16:42,980
Nominations are open, first in the Q's council member Bradford, your Reconacer.

179
00:16:43,980 --> 00:16:44,920
Thank you, Madam President.

180
00:16:45,220 --> 00:16:49,000
My distinct honor to nominate my friend and colleague, council member Olivia Hill.

181
00:16:49,340 --> 00:16:53,580
All right, council member Bradford has nominated council member Olivia.

182
00:16:53,580 --> 00:16:54,300
the Hill.

183
00:16:57,350 --> 00:16:57,590
Right?

184
00:16:57,830 --> 00:16:58,930
Councilmember Taylor?

185
00:16:59,210 --> 00:16:59,670
You're a recognizer.

186
00:17:00,250 --> 00:17:01,210
Thank you.

187
00:17:01,350 --> 00:17:01,830
Anominate.

188
00:17:02,170 --> 00:17:03,150
Councilmember Jeff Prep-T.

189
00:17:03,570 --> 00:17:04,070
All right.

190
00:17:04,550 --> 00:17:09,390
Councilmember Taylor has nominated Councilmember Jeff Prep-T.

191
00:17:13,410 --> 00:17:14,970
Are there any additional nominations?

192
00:17:16,430 --> 00:17:16,850
All right.

193
00:17:17,390 --> 00:17:19,730
Those nominations are closed as well.

194
00:17:20,110 --> 00:17:21,590
Thank you.

195
00:17:22,550 --> 00:17:23,010
All right.

196
00:17:23,590 --> 00:17:28,290
Next on our agenda is section I public comment.

197
00:17:31,550 --> 00:17:36,070
Members of the public, who are Tennessee residents, wishing to speak during public comment,

198
00:17:36,270 --> 00:17:41,930
may sign up at the table outside the Council Chamber from 5 to 6 p.m. on the evening

199
00:17:41,930 --> 00:17:42,870
of a Council meeting.

200
00:17:43,370 --> 00:17:48,330
Public comment is limited to 20 minutes total at Council meetings, and each speaker is allowed

201
00:17:48,330 --> 00:17:50,610
up to two minutes to speak.

202
00:17:51,570 --> 00:17:56,830
Persons-eeking on agenda items must be prioritized to comply with state law.

203
00:17:56,830 --> 00:18:06,570
All right. The first persons in the queue to speak are Michael Lacy, Charles Ellis, and

204
00:18:06,570 --> 00:18:16,450
Trina Huel. Michael Lacy is speaking on agenda item number 64. This is ordinance 1498 in support.

205
00:18:16,770 --> 00:18:18,890
Go ahead, Mr. Lacy, you're recognized.

206
00:18:19,570 --> 00:18:24,430
Before I worked in government, I worked in live streaming video production for Fortune 100

207
00:18:24,430 --> 00:18:31,330
clients. HSBC, JP Morgan, City Bank. That's where I learned about video encryption. With that

208
00:18:31,330 --> 00:18:36,590
experience, I say, I do not believe we have sufficient protections around surveillance tech

209
00:18:36,590 --> 00:18:43,110
until we require all surveillance footage to have end-end encryption with vendor lockout.

210
00:18:43,510 --> 00:18:49,390
There's no reason a vendor providing AI-powered corporate mass surveillance needs access to the footage

211
00:18:49,390 --> 00:18:53,690
of our residents, our private spaces, and our cities, children.

212
00:18:54,570 --> 00:19:00,630
I publish a transparency dashboard with 100% of MNPD's drone flights, not just the 25

213
00:19:00,630 --> 00:19:02,210
flights MNPD posts.

214
00:19:02,810 --> 00:19:08,650
So if MNPD or industry lobbyists claim that encrypting footage of our children so that corporations

215
00:19:08,650 --> 00:19:12,870
cannot view it, would somehow eliminate transparency, that's inaccurate.

216
00:19:13,410 --> 00:19:15,070
And I'm happy to explain why.

217
00:19:15,070 --> 00:19:20,930
Not having access to footage might make corporations less money, but I know none of you

218
00:19:20,930 --> 00:19:26,550
want counsel, an M&PD, or those lobbying counsel believe that people should make money

219
00:19:26,550 --> 00:19:29,950
from footage of our neighbors or private spaces in our children.

220
00:19:30,870 --> 00:19:35,130
And and video encryption with vendor lockout does exactly one thing.

221
00:19:35,570 --> 00:19:38,630
It stops corporations from viewing footage of our neighbors.

222
00:19:39,170 --> 00:19:44,530
It's the only thing that would have stopped flock from showing a live stream video of a

223
00:19:44,530 --> 00:19:50,350
community centers, childrens, gymnasium, in a live sales demo, something that was reported

224
00:19:50,350 --> 00:19:56,650
on in HBO's last week tonight recently. Unless companies like Fuses, Axe on in Scotio

225
00:19:56,650 --> 00:20:03,270
are profiting, of a producer or private spaces, there's no reason they need access to it. This isn't

226
00:20:03,270 --> 00:20:10,090
about whether we trust police. It's about whether we trust corporations who have access to this

227
00:20:11,610 --> 00:20:12,570
I don't.

228
00:20:12,730 --> 00:20:13,110
Do you?

229
00:20:15,490 --> 00:20:15,890
All right.

230
00:20:15,970 --> 00:20:18,150
Next is actually Charles Ellis.

231
00:20:19,530 --> 00:20:21,230
Mr. Ellis is a young gender item.

232
00:20:21,450 --> 00:20:22,130
Number 77.

233
00:20:23,790 --> 00:20:26,730
This is ordinance 1416 in support.

234
00:20:26,990 --> 00:20:27,550
Go ahead.

235
00:20:27,970 --> 00:20:31,190
Hi. My name is Chip Ellis and I live on Twin Hills Drive.

236
00:20:31,230 --> 00:20:34,950
And I strongly support 1416 for the contextual overlay for the neighborhood.

237
00:20:35,970 --> 00:20:39,330
Many of our neighbors are very concerned with everything that's going on in our neighborhood.

238
00:20:39,330 --> 00:20:42,330
And we've got, we've all invested in the neighborhood.

239
00:20:43,070 --> 00:20:44,070
We all call it home.

240
00:20:44,370 --> 00:20:46,310
A lot of us, you know, were original owners

241
00:20:46,310 --> 00:20:48,710
or bought from the original owners of the neighborhood.

242
00:20:49,570 --> 00:20:51,470
And we bought there because we appreciate the vibe

243
00:20:51,470 --> 00:20:55,250
and aesthetic of the neighborhood over the last 11 years or so.

244
00:20:55,410 --> 00:20:57,130
I've watched some of that a road away.

245
00:20:57,730 --> 00:20:59,530
I don't want to see the long-term residents

246
00:20:59,530 --> 00:21:01,010
of the neighborhood take a back seat

247
00:21:01,010 --> 00:21:02,450
to developers and visions.

248
00:21:03,850 --> 00:21:06,930
We've, I know that affordable housing is a concern.

249
00:21:08,290 --> 00:21:12,450
The on-clave at the end of Twin Hill's drive was supposed to help with that.

250
00:21:12,830 --> 00:21:16,350
It didn't sell quick enough, a lot of it got sold to investors, and now they're over

251
00:21:16,350 --> 00:21:18,170
price rental properties, very transient.

252
00:21:19,950 --> 00:21:24,170
The traffic in our neighborhood is gone a quite a bit, and because of all the traffic on

253
00:21:24,170 --> 00:21:28,250
Gallauden Road, we have to use the goodwill parking lot just to get on our street.

254
00:21:28,830 --> 00:21:32,150
For the point where the goodwill parking lot, it's gridlocked.

255
00:21:32,270 --> 00:21:34,230
The light only lets three cars through at a time.

256
00:21:34,230 --> 00:21:37,610
Mr. Ellis, would you kindly pull that microphone just a little bit closer?

257
00:21:37,670 --> 00:21:38,670
Which is very about that.

258
00:21:38,970 --> 00:21:40,710
No worries, we just want to be sure to hear you.

259
00:21:41,090 --> 00:21:44,890
We have another development going on our neighborhood that's been on and off for five years.

260
00:21:45,290 --> 00:21:47,130
Lots of trucks, lots of debris in the road.

261
00:21:48,910 --> 00:21:52,930
We're the ones that pay our taxes, improve our homes, try and keep the neighborhood up.

262
00:21:53,090 --> 00:21:54,910
And we don't want to take a back seat to investors.

263
00:21:55,090 --> 00:21:58,450
We want to build Tall and Skinny's tear down the lots, sir.

264
00:21:58,530 --> 00:22:01,590
The house is on the lots, but multiple homes on them.

265
00:22:01,590 --> 00:22:06,710
We like our neighborhood of the way it is, and with all the affordable housing going in at the Rivergate Mall.

266
00:22:07,470 --> 00:22:11,530
Not to mention all the half empty park and complexes just south of Rivergate.

267
00:22:12,970 --> 00:22:17,350
I think this contextual overlay is a good idea, and I strongly support it as do most of my neighbors.

268
00:22:17,950 --> 00:22:18,470
Thank you.

269
00:22:18,970 --> 00:22:19,690
Thank you.

270
00:22:21,010 --> 00:22:23,210
Next is Trena Huel.

271
00:22:23,630 --> 00:22:26,730
After Ms. Huel will be Nancy Wilson and Tyler Deaton.

272
00:22:26,730 --> 00:22:30,570
Treyna Huel is speaking regarding a gender item 64.

273
00:22:30,730 --> 00:22:33,510
This is ordinance 1498 in opposition.

274
00:22:34,130 --> 00:22:34,830
Go ahead, please.

275
00:22:35,590 --> 00:22:36,770
Hi, my name is Treyna Huel.

276
00:22:36,810 --> 00:22:38,370
I live in District 6.

277
00:22:38,690 --> 00:22:44,030
Metro Code 130880 exempts surveillance technology

278
00:22:44,030 --> 00:22:46,770
on a temporary basis for a criminal investigation

279
00:22:46,770 --> 00:22:49,110
supported by reasonable suspicion.

280
00:22:49,850 --> 00:22:54,150
A lawfully issued search warrant or exigent circumstances

281
00:22:54,150 --> 00:22:55,830
as defined by case law.

282
00:22:55,830 --> 00:23:01,290
That is the legal basis MMPD in the mayor's office site for the drone's first responder program.

283
00:23:01,830 --> 00:23:06,570
But the dispatch data shows drone sent to vehicle accidents involving only property damage,

284
00:23:06,950 --> 00:23:12,210
a civil matter, to vehicles blocking the right of way, to cause about a suspicious person.

285
00:23:12,530 --> 00:23:15,730
None of that is a criminal investigation warrant or an emergency.

286
00:23:16,510 --> 00:23:21,570
I support the legislation narrowing this exemption, and I support closing it all the way,

287
00:23:21,570 --> 00:23:25,990
because MNPD has shown it cannot be trusted to interpret its own limits.

288
00:23:26,870 --> 00:23:29,570
My own records request are part of why we know this.

289
00:23:29,990 --> 00:23:35,550
MNPD filed two extensions before ultimately confirming no written agreement exists between

290
00:23:35,550 --> 00:23:41,450
the Department and its drone vendor, no agreement, no written terms on how long footage is

291
00:23:41,450 --> 00:23:44,450
kept, who can access it, or how it's secured.

292
00:23:44,970 --> 00:23:47,090
We've simply been told to trust it.

293
00:23:47,090 --> 00:23:53,530
On August 7th, I and other residents returned away at the door of MMPD headquarters of publicly funded building

294
00:23:53,530 --> 00:23:58,830
from a demonstration of this very program that a council member had announced is open to the public.

295
00:23:59,410 --> 00:24:06,170
A lobbyist was led in. When I called for help because I believe our own sunshine laws were being violated in real time,

296
00:24:06,310 --> 00:24:14,470
no help came, no drone, no officer, nothing. If his program is marketed as a first responder, I'd ask,

297
00:24:14,470 --> 00:24:18,590
MMPD Zone officers, whether they're comfortable with the camera and the sky being called by

298
00:24:18,590 --> 00:24:25,450
the same name as the training that they receive, I also followed one of these drone cases

299
00:24:26,150 --> 00:24:31,970
of an arm burglary to its completion in court where all charges were dropped and dismissed

300
00:24:31,970 --> 00:24:35,410
because no witness could be produced. The drone can't be called the court.

301
00:24:38,800 --> 00:24:45,740
Thank you. Next is Nancy Wilson speaking on agenda item 78.

302
00:24:45,740 --> 00:24:54,140
this is ordinance 1420 in support. Go ahead. Good evening, Vice Nia Henderson, Council members.

303
00:24:54,760 --> 00:25:00,020
My name is Dr. Nancy Wilson and I live in the Comberland and North Hills neighborhood. I am here

304
00:25:00,020 --> 00:25:09,120
tonight to lend and request support for Council Bill BL2026, 1420. As a gentrification and housing researcher,

305
00:25:09,120 --> 00:25:17,560
As well as an urban planner, my work focuses on equitable ways. Communities can grow and thrive

306
00:25:17,560 --> 00:25:24,320
without losing the people, the history and the character of our unique neighborhoods. I'd like

307
00:25:24,320 --> 00:25:31,760
to state unequivocally that this overlay is not about stopping growth. It is about managing growth

308
00:25:31,760 --> 00:25:40,780
responsibly. Our homes are almost 60 to 70 years old, and collectively, they represent

309
00:25:40,780 --> 00:25:47,480
more than lot lines, setbacks, and patterns. They represent the lives of multiple generations

310
00:25:47,480 --> 00:25:54,680
of residents who call our neighbourhoods home. Collectively, our neighbours have attended many

311
00:25:54,680 --> 00:26:05,080
meetings and some of them could not be here this evening, but they are supporting this bill.

312
00:26:06,160 --> 00:26:11,840
This bill gives our community the planning tools to help us preserve our homes and accomplish

313
00:26:11,840 --> 00:26:15,560
that balance between growth as well as preservation.

314
00:26:16,360 --> 00:26:22,700
Thank you so much for your time, your service, and your role in supporting this bill by

315
00:26:22,700 --> 00:26:27,860
Yes, to create this contextual overlay for precious community.

316
00:26:30,020 --> 00:26:31,980
Thank you.

317
00:26:32,500 --> 00:26:40,660
All right. Next is Tyler Deaton following Tyler will be Ronnie Greer and Kelly Cheng.

318
00:26:41,260 --> 00:26:50,140
Tyler Deaton is speaking regarding agenda item 73, ordinance 1406 in support go ahead.

319
00:26:50,800 --> 00:26:56,140
Good afternoon. My name is Tyler Deaton, and I'm with my homes. I come in today on reference

320
00:26:56,140 --> 00:27:03,320
to BL-26-146, and it's companion bill 1407, both of which passed two weeks ago at

321
00:27:03,320 --> 00:27:08,440
second reading. During the public hearing, there was a request that we meet with the community

322
00:27:08,440 --> 00:27:13,220
again prior to the third reading. Council member Lee facilitated that meeting, our eighth

323
00:27:13,220 --> 00:27:19,200
community meeting, which was held on Thursday. As a result of that meeting, we've made

324
00:27:19,200 --> 00:27:24,380
To additional commitments to future improvements, first we will make a partial financial contribution

325
00:27:24,380 --> 00:27:29,140
to the city towards improvements at the intersection of Cane Ridge Road and Blairfield

326
00:27:29,140 --> 00:27:29,600
Drive.

327
00:27:30,920 --> 00:27:35,980
Second, we have committed to an additional proactive measure for a adjacent homeowner

328
00:27:35,980 --> 00:27:39,920
to further mitigate their concerns regarding potential impacts on their property.

329
00:27:40,620 --> 00:27:45,140
Both commitments are directly responsive to concerns brought up at that community meeting

330
00:27:45,140 --> 00:27:49,860
and reflect our continued effort to work alongside the community throughout this process.

331
00:27:50,080 --> 00:27:54,020
We respectfully ask for your approval at third reading tonight. Thank you.

332
00:27:54,260 --> 00:27:55,160
Thank you.

333
00:27:57,430 --> 00:28:03,470
Next is Ronnie Greer, speaking regarding a

334
00:28:03,470 --> 00:28:07,970
time that she's had you move referendum and transportation

335
00:28:07,970 --> 00:28:12,630
and plan in opposition, go ahead, sir.

336
00:28:12,890 --> 00:28:13,990
Thank you, Mr. Vice Mayor.

337
00:28:14,350 --> 00:28:15,030
We're with the Council.

338
00:28:15,110 --> 00:28:16,430
My name is Ronnie Greer.

339
00:28:17,070 --> 00:28:18,850
I'm on a alumni of this body.

340
00:28:19,070 --> 00:28:20,970
Having served eight years.

341
00:28:21,010 --> 00:28:21,550
Yes, sir.

342
00:28:21,730 --> 00:28:22,930
That's one of the Ronnie Greer.

343
00:28:23,150 --> 00:28:23,630
Well, I'm sorry.

344
00:28:24,650 --> 00:28:27,330
And I came to speak about the mayor's choose

345
00:28:27,330 --> 00:28:29,090
how you move a project.

346
00:28:29,630 --> 00:28:33,730
I've just been made aware that that project

347
00:28:33,730 --> 00:28:35,310
is going to move up until 11.

348
00:28:35,310 --> 00:28:42,270
from 21st Avenue to 8th Avenue actually going to go around the chest net. The plan is to

349
00:28:42,270 --> 00:28:53,830
turn that four-lane road into a two-lane road with bike on either side. Tonight I asked

350
00:28:53,830 --> 00:29:03,490
an officer or encouraged each of you to go out to 8th Avenue between 430 and 530 and try to

351
00:29:03,490 --> 00:29:11,450
come up from 21st and just go to 8th Avenue, as it is right now, where we got four lanes of traffic going in and doing each direction.

352
00:29:12,350 --> 00:29:17,030
And think about changing that to one lane, going in each direction.

353
00:29:17,550 --> 00:29:24,670
You've changed, made a 10-minute trip from 8th Avenue to Vanderbilt, a 20-minute trip, just because you

354
00:29:24,670 --> 00:29:25,150
now drove.

355
00:29:25,450 --> 00:29:32,530
You would think that as we grow, we would like to cause our citizens to be able to move more freely.

356
00:29:32,530 --> 00:29:40,210
This plan, this design for the HL community will cause us a bald neck that no one right now

357
00:29:40,210 --> 00:29:42,390
no one wants to go downtown because of the bald neck.

358
00:29:42,490 --> 00:29:46,170
Now you're creating the same bald neck in the South National side.

359
00:29:46,630 --> 00:29:49,510
HL is a throughway.

360
00:29:49,550 --> 00:29:54,210
It's a connector between West End at 21st and Mercerborough Road.

361
00:29:55,470 --> 00:29:59,530
The only other connector is where it would have a new.

362
00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:08,220
One of the ways to get from 20% across town. And I thought the project is already so I know 90% in this design phase

363
00:30:08,220 --> 00:30:13,800
are completed, but it doesn't have to be that way. I strongly encourage you to write up the

364
00:30:13,800 --> 00:30:14,840
Thank you.

365
00:30:14,840 --> 00:30:16,260
Thank you.

366
00:30:16,840 --> 00:30:18,100
All right.

367
00:30:19,740 --> 00:30:22,220
Next is Kelly Chang.

368
00:30:22,980 --> 00:30:27,420
Kelly will be followed by John Bull and Michael Marra.

369
00:30:27,880 --> 00:30:31,140
Ms. Chang is speaking regarding agenda item 64.

370
00:30:31,640 --> 00:30:34,560
This is ordinance 1498 in support.

371
00:30:35,000 --> 00:30:35,800
Go ahead.

372
00:30:36,660 --> 00:30:41,140
I am in support of this legislation, although I have to admit,

373
00:30:41,140 --> 00:30:46,460
I do not have much faith that it will be effective because time after time after time, we have

374
00:30:46,460 --> 00:30:50,320
seen MMPD along with the help of Metro Legal and the mayor's office.

375
00:30:50,880 --> 00:30:56,880
A system in routing around, breaking, legally implementing surveillance technology in our

376
00:30:56,880 --> 00:30:57,300
city.

377
00:30:57,580 --> 00:31:02,040
We saw this with Fuses, which yes came under John Cooper and continued for a little while under

378
00:31:02,040 --> 00:31:02,680
Mayor O'Connell.

379
00:31:03,580 --> 00:31:08,200
They then brought a new contract back to continue surveilling us with Fuses and aggregating

380
00:31:08,200 --> 00:31:10,960
all of our data into a single pane of glass.

381
00:31:11,700 --> 00:31:16,480
We saw this with in May the start of the SkyDO drone trial

382
00:31:16,480 --> 00:31:20,000
program, which most council members did not know about when

383
00:31:20,000 --> 00:31:20,520
it happened.

384
00:31:21,340 --> 00:31:23,060
Again, as Trenus said, nothing and writing,

385
00:31:23,240 --> 00:31:25,260
I don't need to re-read you all the exemptions,

386
00:31:25,620 --> 00:31:29,060
or why people don't believe that this fits into that exemption.

387
00:31:29,360 --> 00:31:32,140
As Trenus said, there are plenty of things.

388
00:31:32,340 --> 00:31:33,960
You can pull the information yourself.

389
00:31:34,100 --> 00:31:36,600
I'll email you a CSV of all the reasons why these drones

390
00:31:36,600 --> 00:31:42,040
have been used to spy on our neighbors. These are not all emergencies. Are there some emergencies

391
00:31:42,040 --> 00:31:48,040
in there? Sure. But there are things like suicidal. So I guess if someone in our city

392
00:31:48,040 --> 00:31:51,840
is going through a mental health crisis and is thinking not committing suicide, they now

393
00:31:51,840 --> 00:31:57,480
get a drone to show up to them. That is not what we need. That is not safety. And while this

394
00:31:57,480 --> 00:32:01,790
was happening, I was alerted last week by someone from another state who was doing their own

395
00:32:01,790 --> 00:32:06,710
research on what their police department is using and how they are using flock and found

396
00:32:06,710 --> 00:32:11,690
out that MMPD has been using side-door access, completely unapproved by you all and has

397
00:32:11,690 --> 00:32:17,210
run more than 1,000 flock searches through their national database, looking for information

398
00:32:17,210 --> 00:32:18,230
on nationalians.

399
00:32:18,590 --> 00:32:22,110
That is not something that has been approved by this council, and as I said, time and time

400
00:32:22,110 --> 00:32:24,210
again, we see MMPD violating these things.

401
00:32:24,270 --> 00:32:31,770
They talk about building public trust, but there is no basis for public trust when they're

402
00:32:31,770 --> 00:32:35,810
If you all want to approve it, that is your purview, but you don't even get the chance to do that.

403
00:32:35,850 --> 00:32:37,650
And it's a pattern and we're sick of it.

404
00:32:39,110 --> 00:32:39,790
Thank you.

405
00:32:41,130 --> 00:32:48,830
Next is John Bull, speaking on agenda item 64 as well, ordinance 1498 in support.

406
00:32:49,030 --> 00:32:49,850
Go ahead, sir.

407
00:32:50,290 --> 00:32:50,750
Thank you, sir.

408
00:32:50,810 --> 00:32:53,090
I'm a registered voter, South National.

409
00:32:56,090 --> 00:33:01,670
I support the ordinance in particular, the proposed substitute.

410
00:33:01,670 --> 00:33:07,950
I'm impressed with the work, the sponsors have done and working with this.

411
00:33:09,690 --> 00:33:13,470
I know too much about bureaucracies.

412
00:33:15,610 --> 00:33:23,610
I appreciate the effort that they're going to kill and take

413
00:33:25,660 --> 00:33:27,080
care of our prophecies.

414
00:33:27,080 --> 00:33:34,600
but this is that these are times to be sure.

415
00:33:34,660 --> 00:33:37,700
Yes, I support the proposed substitute.

416
00:33:39,820 --> 00:33:41,960
It's for watching this.

417
00:33:42,060 --> 00:33:43,140
Thank you.

418
00:33:43,220 --> 00:33:44,360
Thank you, sir.

419
00:33:46,280 --> 00:33:49,740
Okay, next is Michael Marra.

420
00:33:50,500 --> 00:33:54,980
Michael is speaking regarding ordinance 14, 97.

421
00:33:56,160 --> 00:34:02,740
No right on red in opposition. Go ahead sir. Yes, and I won't be able to attend the September

422
00:34:02,740 --> 00:34:07,320
reading so thank you for taking the time today. My name is Michael. I'm a resident HOA leader

423
00:34:07,320 --> 00:34:12,240
and I work on Broadway and downtown Nashville 5 to 7 nights a week. Safety and well-being of

424
00:34:12,240 --> 00:34:17,820
Nashvilleians and visitors is my life. I firmly believe this well-intentioned initiative will

425
00:34:17,820 --> 00:34:22,580
have the opposite effect and it will make life and travel worse and for both drivers and pedestrians

426
00:34:22,580 --> 00:34:27,100
it will put more lives in danger. I also want to mention the recent tragedy on Broadway

427
00:34:27,100 --> 00:34:30,980
involved in individual going straight through a red light and not turning, so we should

428
00:34:30,980 --> 00:34:35,980
be wary before we use that for this initiative. Right on reds are essentially stop signs. You

429
00:34:35,980 --> 00:34:40,820
must come to a full stop and then turn right. No one would accuse stop signs of being deadly traffic

430
00:34:40,820 --> 00:34:47,200
initiatives. What they do is help traffic flow. And if you stop that, you will have more congestion

431
00:34:47,200 --> 00:34:50,040
irritated drivers and busier and more dangerous streets.

432
00:34:50,840 --> 00:34:56,980
There is a 2020 NIH study on the relation between congestion and traffic accidents, which came

433
00:34:56,980 --> 00:35:03,560
to the same conclusion that, and I quote, managing traffic to avoid higher levels of congestion

434
00:35:03,560 --> 00:35:07,160
would have the greatest impact on reducing accident occurrence.

435
00:35:07,780 --> 00:35:12,480
I live through the attempt at the bus lane on Broadway, which turned a five-minute drive

436
00:35:12,480 --> 00:35:14,560
into a 35-minute traffic nightmare.

437
00:35:14,900 --> 00:35:16,900
It increased traffic by 800 percent.

438
00:35:16,920 --> 00:35:19,400
It made life worse for while I try it.

439
00:35:20,420 --> 00:35:23,900
So, in closing, I think we all have the shared goal

440
00:35:23,900 --> 00:35:27,180
to make our roads and roads safe for residents

441
00:35:27,180 --> 00:35:29,400
and visitors, drivers, and pedestrians.

442
00:35:30,120 --> 00:35:32,260
If we want to reduce accident occurrence,

443
00:35:32,680 --> 00:35:35,100
I believe we must avoid and rethink bills

444
00:35:35,100 --> 00:35:36,920
like the no-right on-red initiative

445
00:35:36,920 --> 00:35:39,200
which will not achieve our shared goal.

446
00:35:39,620 --> 00:35:40,000
Thank you.

447
00:35:40,340 --> 00:35:41,060
Thank you.

448
00:35:42,420 --> 00:35:54,040
All right, next is Benjamin Davis speaking on agenda item 64, ordinance 1498, speaking in support, go ahead.

449
00:35:54,560 --> 00:35:56,560
Good evening, Councillors or council members.

450
00:35:57,400 --> 00:36:04,300
As many of you know, the drone program was started without any authorization from this council or any other.

451
00:36:05,100 --> 00:36:10,320
Because they said that they were given free and no contract drones.

452
00:36:11,080 --> 00:36:16,400
By bypassing all of our elected officials, MMPD is shown a blatant disregard for citizens

453
00:36:16,400 --> 00:36:21,000
of this city, and it's just one in a long list of their unwillingness to respect the rule

454
00:36:21,000 --> 00:36:22,920
of law and the rights of those who live here.

455
00:36:23,300 --> 00:36:28,180
By voting against this bill, you will be giving MMPD and the corporations that supply the

456
00:36:28,180 --> 00:36:33,680
technology, unfettered access to patrol our skies and to spy on our citizens.

457
00:36:34,300 --> 00:36:40,300
The people of Nashville are sick of being recorded without their consent and of having their privacy revoked.

458
00:36:40,760 --> 00:36:45,480
Please do not give them yet another tool to invade our lives.

459
00:36:46,240 --> 00:36:52,080
I would encourage all of you to educate yourself about this technology and surveillance technology in general.

460
00:36:52,160 --> 00:36:58,160
If you don't understand what end-to-end encryption is or you think that you understand it better than those that are providing this

461
00:36:58,160 --> 00:37:00,520
technology, then you are incorrect.

462
00:37:00,620 --> 00:37:03,180
If you think that M&PD understands it better

463
00:37:03,180 --> 00:37:04,960
than those that are supporting, that are creating

464
00:37:04,960 --> 00:37:07,480
and supplying this technology, you are incorrect.

465
00:37:08,120 --> 00:37:10,520
Please educate yourselves before you vote on a spill.

466
00:37:11,080 --> 00:37:12,280
Thank you.

467
00:37:12,440 --> 00:37:13,240
Thank you.

468
00:37:14,320 --> 00:37:14,860
All right.

469
00:37:15,540 --> 00:37:19,160
We have just shy of four minutes of residual time.

470
00:37:19,340 --> 00:37:22,800
So we have two folks on our waiting list.

471
00:37:23,500 --> 00:37:27,880
First is Manan Hall, a speaking regarding agenda item

472
00:37:33,700 --> 00:37:51,700
I have already spoken on this legislation, well, I guess before it exists, I brought to you all the issue of these drones by passing Council and not going through the proper channels, you know, the democratic proper channels, and so I'm in support of this legislation and supported this up to two.

473
00:37:51,700 --> 00:37:57,640
I also would love to touch on to tell you move strong support of that.

474
00:37:57,820 --> 00:38:05,180
I was at a community meeting with the Honourable Ronnie Glenn career at just last week, and it

475
00:38:05,180 --> 00:38:11,480
talked about as a great presentation on why we should narrow, why we should reduce the lanes,

476
00:38:11,640 --> 00:38:19,600
why we should have a road diet on edge, so it doesn't meet the needs of four lanes of traffic.

477
00:38:19,600 --> 00:38:26,140
It also, the goal is to make it safer, make it more accessible for people that are going

478
00:38:26,140 --> 00:38:27,780
to choose to walk, choose to bike.

479
00:38:28,280 --> 00:38:33,420
There is a between eighth and 12th where they're concerned, there is a school, actually

480
00:38:33,420 --> 00:38:39,880
multiple schools, there is parks, and then it's right across from thousands of units of

481
00:38:39,880 --> 00:38:40,340
housing.

482
00:38:41,040 --> 00:38:45,200
So, making that a safer street for those individuals to cross, to interact with, to bike

483
00:38:45,200 --> 00:38:53,620
to and from, narrowing, reducing the lanes also will encourage all the drivers that ultimately

484
00:38:53,620 --> 00:38:59,680
right now, the traffic is in between 4, 30 and 6, are people trying to avoid getting on

485
00:38:59,680 --> 00:39:06,080
the freeway, or you know, around the goal-ch area. And so it's like let's get the people that

486
00:39:06,080 --> 00:39:09,900
are not his neighbors, let's the people in a chill, let's make it safer for them to get

487
00:39:09,900 --> 00:39:13,840
ground and discourage people driving through their neighborhood.

488
00:39:16,440 --> 00:39:19,520
Also, you know, the bus lane

489
00:39:19,520 --> 00:39:25,060
down town last year, the bus pilot, you know, as someone who often frequency going down,

490
00:39:25,720 --> 00:39:31,100
no one's going down. Murphy's broke like, it was an incredible improvement. It reduced times

491
00:39:31,100 --> 00:39:36,600
30-plus minutes and I love to see the data around 800 percent changes. But yeah, thanks

492
00:39:36,600 --> 00:39:46,980
All right, next is Casey Abramson, regarding being proactive with ICE storms.

493
00:39:47,420 --> 00:39:48,700
Go ahead, Casey, you're recognized.

494
00:39:49,800 --> 00:39:50,720
Thank you very much.

495
00:39:51,320 --> 00:39:56,260
I just moved here about two weeks ago, and during that time I've spoken to a lot of people

496
00:39:56,260 --> 00:40:04,060
in the city, and they told me about the very catastrophic ICE storm last year, and I think

497
00:40:04,060 --> 00:40:10,800
the city would do very, very well in being more proactive in preventing things like this.

498
00:40:11,080 --> 00:40:17,400
It's much more affordable to the taxpayers in terms of making sure that the tree state

499
00:40:17,400 --> 00:40:22,520
healthy, lessening their chances of collapsing and destroying power lines, also maintaining

500
00:40:22,520 --> 00:40:23,200
the soil.

501
00:40:23,580 --> 00:40:31,060
This would also help create jobs you're around for residents in the city, and I understand

502
00:40:31,060 --> 00:40:37,080
I am not aware of the city's budget or the city's way of doing things, but as a private

503
00:40:37,080 --> 00:40:45,440
citizen of this city, I really look forward to working close with all of you to making

504
00:40:45,440 --> 00:40:49,040
this not just the better city, but also a better state.

505
00:40:49,560 --> 00:40:50,000
Thank you everybody.

506
00:40:50,600 --> 00:40:50,780
All right.

507
00:40:51,080 --> 00:40:51,500
Thank you.

508
00:40:51,620 --> 00:40:52,520
And welcome to Nishville.

509
00:40:53,500 --> 00:40:53,700

510
00:40:53,980 --> 00:40:55,200
That concludes public comment.

511
00:40:55,200 --> 00:40:56,060
is

512
00:41:07,480 --> 00:41:14,060
section J of our agenda, or consolidated consent agenda. All resolutions and second and third

513
00:41:14,060 --> 00:41:18,580
reading ordinances on this agenda are included on the consent agenda. If recommended

514
00:41:18,580 --> 00:41:23,340
for approval unanimously by all committees to which the item was referred, items on the

515
00:41:23,340 --> 00:41:27,840
consent agenda will be voted on in a single time. The item number along with the resolution

516
00:41:27,840 --> 00:41:32,200
and ordinance number of the items on the consent agenda will be read by me. And then members

517
00:41:32,200 --> 00:41:36,600
of the council may remove any item from the consent agenda by request before the council

518
00:41:36,600 --> 00:41:38,960
consent agenda vote is taken.

519
00:41:39,740 --> 00:41:40,700

608
00:52:41,040 --> 00:52:56,980
That's great. If y'all would give me the agenda number first and then I will go there and then I will actually share the ordinance number that helps me because when you do two at a time and then you read the ordinance number, it makes it a little bit hard to get there. So thank y'all.

609
00:52:57,560 --> 00:53:07,660
Okay, Ms. Joe, agenda item 88 ordinance 1473 has been removed from consent. Thank you. Thank you council members. Swara, you are recognized.

615
00:53:20,440 --> 00:53:22,480
We'll be removed from consent.

616
00:53:24,660 --> 00:53:25,060
All right.

617
00:53:25,820 --> 00:53:30,400
Is anyone else seeking to be recognized to remove an item from consent?

618
00:53:30,500 --> 00:53:32,520
Miss Porterfield, you're recognized?

619
00:53:37,080 --> 00:53:43,500
Thank you, Madam Vice Mayor. I just want to confirm that agenda item number 9, 281 is not on

620
00:53:43,500 --> 00:53:52,040
consent. Okay. It's not on consent. Okay, yes. Agenda item 9 is not on consent. That's correct. Council

621
00:53:52,040 --> 00:53:58,260
Member Stiles, you're recognized again, ma'am. Please forgive me. I left off of the item 75. No worries. Agenda

item 75,

623
00:54:03,720 --> 00:54:08,660
which those are already off-consent, because there's a proposed amendment.

624
00:54:09,160 --> 00:54:12,940
So, agenda item 75 and 76 are not on consent.

625
00:54:13,640 --> 00:54:14,500
That's okay.

626
00:54:14,880 --> 00:54:21,700

631
00:54:25,980 --> 00:54:28,680

632
00:54:29,540 --> 00:54:36,080
Okay, um, uh, properly moved and seconded. All in favor say aye. All right. Council has passed

633
00:54:36,080 --> 00:54:42,040

640
00:55:16,830 --> 00:55:17,290
recognized.

641
00:55:18,170 --> 00:55:21,850
Thank you, Madam Vice Mayor, committee reports. It was in finding as well as to recommend

642
00:55:21,850 --> 00:55:26,230
approval as amended 11 in favor, zero get zero not voting.

643
00:55:26,930 --> 00:55:31,210
Thank you Madam Chair and for the report of the Transportation Infrastructure Committee.

644
00:55:31,510 --> 00:55:32,890
Chair Evan Seagull, you're recognized.

645
00:55:33,310 --> 00:55:36,910
Transportation and Infrastructure Committee recommended approval of the amendment.

646
00:55:37,030 --> 00:55:40,010
Tenant favors zero against zero not voting into approve as amended.

647
00:55:40,310 --> 00:55:42,150
Tenant favors zero against zero not voting.

648
00:55:42,530 --> 00:55:42,730
All right.

649
00:55:44,450 --> 00:55:47,610
With that, it is back to you for a motion to get the bill before us.

650
00:55:47,830 --> 00:55:49,050
Ms. Teams.

651
00:55:49,130 --> 00:55:50,290
I'm sorry Ms. Teams.

652
00:55:50,430 --> 00:55:50,690
Go ahead.

653
00:55:50,690 --> 00:55:57,310
approval. All right. Is there a second? Okay. We're on to discussion and first in the

654
00:55:57,310 --> 00:56:00,510
queue is Councilmember Allen, you're recognized. Thank you, Madam President. I'd like

655
00:56:00,510 --> 00:56:04,550
to move the amendment, please. All right. Is there a second? Go ahead. Anything you want

656
00:56:04,550 --> 00:56:09,610
to share about the brief explanation? This just adds an audit policy that the work was

657
00:56:09,610 --> 00:56:14,330
JD Lane to get formalized and appreciate the work that he did to make that be part of this

658
00:56:14,330 --> 00:56:20,030
bill. All right. Ms. Hancock, do you seek to be recognized on the amendment specifically?

659
00:56:21,330 --> 00:56:27,990
Okay. Is there any further discussion on the motion to amend? All right. Seeing none on favor

660
00:56:27,990 --> 00:56:32,830
the amendment, please say aye. Any voting, no we're abstaining? Okay. With that, Ms.

661
00:56:32,910 --> 00:56:37,870
Tames, it's your intent to renew. Move for approval was amended. All right. Thank you.

662
00:56:38,190 --> 00:56:43,050
Properly seconded. Discussion continues. And then first in the queue is Council Member

663
00:56:43,050 --> 00:56:48,570
Hancock, your recognized. Thank you for recognizing me. I was wondering if this agreement

664
00:56:48,570 --> 00:56:54,510
It would replace the street sweepers that we have purchased, including the four names, de-mumbrian,

665
00:56:54,870 --> 00:57:01,890
de-broom-illian, de-sentiment, and we had such a great public input in naming the street sweepers

666
00:57:01,890 --> 00:57:05,450
that I was just going to be disappointed if they were not out of work.

667
00:57:06,250 --> 00:57:11,050
I think those are bike lanes, specifics, sweepers, maintain-cocks, so I know they're a tiny

668
00:57:11,050 --> 00:57:11,570
minis sweeper.

669
00:57:11,950 --> 00:57:12,950
Yes, they are skinny.

670
00:57:13,430 --> 00:57:14,550
Thank you for the education.

671
00:57:14,950 --> 00:57:15,210
Yes, ma'am.

672
00:57:15,210 --> 00:57:21,510
Okay. Anyone else, a sponsor on the bill wanting to be recognized to explain anything further

673
00:57:21,510 --> 00:57:27,050
with Ms. Hancock's question? Seeing none, is there any further discussion on this motion

674
00:57:27,050 --> 00:57:33,570
to approve this resolution as amended? Seeing none, all in favor, please say aye. Any voting

675
00:57:33,570 --> 00:57:40,910
no or abstaining? All right. You have adopted this resolution as amended and

676
00:57:40,910 --> 00:57:47,490
and demon brewing or however we say it, is very safe.

677
00:57:48,930 --> 00:57:49,770
So we've been our bike lines.

678
00:57:50,550 --> 00:57:51,290
Demon brewing.

679
00:57:52,010 --> 00:57:52,150
Okay.

680
00:57:52,630 --> 00:57:53,190
All righty.

681
00:57:53,670 --> 00:57:55,690
Moving on, agenda item two.

682
00:57:56,010 --> 00:57:59,310
Resolution 2026-2135.

683
00:57:59,750 --> 00:58:02,730
Sponsor Tunes, Swara Allen and Koopin.

684
00:58:03,010 --> 00:58:07,690
This is a resolution of proving an intergovernmental project agreement between the Metropolitan Government

685
00:58:07,690 --> 00:58:10,410
of National and Davis and County and the Convention Center Authority.

686
00:58:10,410 --> 00:58:14,430
of the Metro government of Nashville and Davis and County, relating to the financing

687
00:58:14,430 --> 00:58:17,710
and refinancing of the Music City Center.

688
00:58:18,230 --> 00:58:20,790
Council member Tunes, you are recognized.

689
00:58:21,870 --> 00:58:24,570
Thank you, Madam Vice Mayor, committee report.

690
00:58:24,930 --> 00:58:25,930
It wasn't an finance authority.

691
00:58:26,750 --> 00:58:27,430
Okay, yes.

692
00:58:27,570 --> 00:58:31,190
That was submitted last time with 10, 0 and 1.

693
00:58:31,930 --> 00:58:36,990
And so the current report would be from the ad hoc east bank committee, chair Evan Siegel.

694
00:58:36,990 --> 00:58:46,970
The ad hoc use to thank committee, always a mouthful to say, we're committed approval for in favor of three against and zero not voting.

695
00:58:47,150 --> 00:58:47,530
All right.

696
00:58:48,750 --> 00:58:52,350
With that, it's back to you for a motion on your bill, Ms. Timbs.

697
00:58:52,590 --> 00:58:53,210
Move for approval.

698
00:58:53,810 --> 00:58:53,930
All right.

699
00:58:53,990 --> 00:58:55,810
It's properly moved and seconded.

700
00:58:55,970 --> 00:58:57,490
And we are on to discussion.

701
00:58:58,750 --> 00:59:01,810
First, in the queue, is Council Member Parker your reconouser?

702
00:59:02,610 --> 00:59:08,710
I think, Vice Mayor, I assumed this was going to be deferred to track with the ordinance,

703
00:59:09,010 --> 00:59:11,150
but I guess it's not.

704
00:59:11,730 --> 00:59:22,310
You know, my overall concern about this arrangement is how much money is being directed toward

705
00:59:22,310 --> 00:59:25,430
a $1 billion new convention center.

706
00:59:26,710 --> 00:59:34,330
It's widely recognized that the 2010 images in our arrangement kind of over-egg the omelette

707
00:59:34,330 --> 00:59:44,110
capturing tons of excess revenue in that structure, not allowing it to be utilized to improve

708
00:59:44,110 --> 00:59:46,170
Nashville outside of the convention center.

709
00:59:47,110 --> 00:59:51,710
And I'm curious why we are doubling down on that model, you know, if you add up the revenue

710
00:59:51,710 --> 00:59:59,390
sources, a new rate in this agreement with a very conservative growth projections we're

711
00:59:59,390 --> 00:59:59,970
looking at about six.

712
01:00:00,000 --> 01:00:06,020
Billion dollars and revenue. I would say that if these revenues are growing at one to two percent

713
01:00:06,020 --> 01:00:11,040
as projected by finance, that would be like the most disastrous economy you could possibly imagine

714
01:00:11,040 --> 01:00:18,080
for Nashville across the life of this deal. That also assumes that there is no growth in hotel occupancy

715
01:00:18,080 --> 01:00:23,980
because we're building a second convention center. So, realistically, those six billion dollars

716
01:00:23,980 --> 01:00:30,140
that finance is projecting out is more likely to be $8 or $9 billion dollars.

717
01:00:30,260 --> 01:00:33,080
This is to build a $1 billion new convention center.

718
01:00:33,660 --> 01:00:37,300
I'm afraid that we are doubling down on the mistakes of the past year, and I really

719
01:00:37,300 --> 01:00:41,440
just can't support this and I would encourage my colleagues to vote no as well.

720
01:00:42,760 --> 01:00:47,540
All right, next in the queue is Council Member Evan Seagull, you're recognized.

721
01:00:47,540 --> 01:00:47,960
I

722
01:00:50,740 --> 01:01:14,820
think what we have seen since the convention center deal was asked is the significant amount of excess funds sitting over the convention center and as a city we've had to go to the convention center during budget crises with hat and hand and beg for them to make us whole with our own money.

723
01:01:14,820 --> 01:01:17,520
I think my colleague raises valid points.

724
01:01:18,060 --> 01:01:36,380
I would say that this deal in many ways makes that worse because instead of us being able to go back at hand for those funds to make our budget whole, those funds are actually going into a state administered grant program, which will provide tax relief only to businesses within the TDC.

725
01:01:37,400 --> 01:01:43,960
And I think if you sat down most Nashvilleians today, and you said, would you like to help

726
01:01:43,960 --> 01:01:51,320
prop up just just Broadway businesses after the taxories we had to do, so that we can build

727
01:01:51,320 --> 01:01:55,080
a bigger convention center and do that all at once?

728
01:01:55,080 --> 01:02:00,280
I think most of them would be appalled because what we hear over and over and over again

729
01:02:00,280 --> 01:02:05,300
from our constituents is that there is a lot of money downtown and people out in the county

730
01:02:05,300 --> 01:02:08,720
don't feel the benefit of that money, that money stays downtown.

731
01:02:09,220 --> 01:02:14,400
And now it's not only going to stay downtown, but the downtown participants will not

732
01:02:14,400 --> 01:02:18,080
be paying the same taxes as everybody else.

733
01:02:18,540 --> 01:02:19,340
And that's welfare.

734
01:02:19,520 --> 01:02:26,620
It's corporate welfare that we as a city are agreeing to with this deal and with this refinancing

735
01:02:26,620 --> 01:02:27,260
scheme.

736
01:02:27,740 --> 01:02:30,020
And I can't, in good conscious, vote for that.

737
01:02:30,060 --> 01:02:31,540
I'm sure this will pass tonight.

738
01:02:31,600 --> 01:02:34,460
And I'm sure many people in here will decide they can support that.

739
01:02:34,460 --> 01:02:41,840
But I cannot sit here and support our tourist dollars, our residence dollars, people's hardworking

740
01:02:41,840 --> 01:02:49,200
dollars going to prop up very profitable businesses when we can't even prop up residents

741
01:02:49,200 --> 01:02:54,360
in need because the state law doesn't allow us to do that.

742
01:02:55,220 --> 01:02:55,440
All right.

743
01:02:55,820 --> 01:03:01,560
Next in the queue is Council Member Stiles, you're recognizing me, thank you very much.

744
01:03:02,940 --> 01:03:14,580
I can't say that I'm in love with this deal, however, I do think that there's this perception

745
01:03:14,580 --> 01:03:22,700
that the business is downtown, that make up the majority of our budget, where somehow giving,

746
01:03:23,040 --> 01:03:29,380
cutting them a break when, really, the break is money that we're supposed to be distributing

747
01:03:29,380 --> 01:03:34,820
across the entire county. I think part of our problem is that we don't turn around and distribute it

748
01:03:34,820 --> 01:03:43,640
equitably across the entire county when we have it. So yes, this is uncomfortable. Sounds like it

749
01:03:43,640 --> 01:03:48,620
might not be the greatest deal we were certain in a position like this last term when we were having

750
01:03:48,620 --> 01:03:54,660
a conversation about the stadium but that other deal was horrible and the new one is better.

751
01:03:55,360 --> 01:04:00,740
I'm going to vote yes for this, being uncomfortable, but I know that our bars downtown and

752
01:04:00,740 --> 01:04:04,260
our businesses downtown, they are helping us make money that goes to our programming.

753
01:04:04,920 --> 01:04:09,840
So we're not cutting people a break because if those businesses go away, we will suffer as

754
01:04:09,840 --> 01:04:10,500
a whole city.

755
01:04:10,920 --> 01:04:16,080
And I'm not sure why we don't see that because if they close what businesses then produce

756
01:04:16,080 --> 01:04:19,460
that money for us to provide any programming for anyone.

757
01:04:20,180 --> 01:04:21,460
Thank you.

758
01:04:22,200 --> 01:04:23,120
Thank you, Ms. Stouse.

759
01:04:23,120 --> 01:04:27,700
Next in the queue is Councilmember Tames, Madam Chair, you recognized.

760
01:04:29,120 --> 01:04:30,400
Thank you, Madam Vice Mayor.

761
01:04:31,380 --> 01:04:33,340
I stand in support of this legislation.

762
01:04:33,740 --> 01:04:40,480
I understand that their concerns regarding the amount of money that circulates downtown.

763
01:04:40,700 --> 01:04:45,460
I will say that we have always gotten money from the TDC.

764
01:04:45,460 --> 01:04:49,580
the T. D. Oh my gosh. T. D. Z.

765
01:04:51,820 --> 01:04:55,620
We've always gotten the base amount that has always come back into the general fund.

766
01:04:55,860 --> 01:05:04,840
There is a net benefit, financial benefit, to Metro with the changes that have been made to the state law.

767
01:05:05,020 --> 01:05:10,740
We still have the same revenue sources. It's still essentially the same set up because that's what the state law is.

768
01:05:10,740 --> 01:05:16,020
we can't change state law, we were able through the changes in this

769
01:05:16,020 --> 01:05:21,280
recent session, we're being, we can remove the backstop that we have that puts

770
01:05:21,280 --> 01:05:26,120
Metro on the hook for the bonds for the Convention Center for the Omni Hotel,

771
01:05:26,340 --> 01:05:31,060
we can remove that backstop that increases our capacity to do the affordable housing

772
01:05:31,060 --> 01:05:37,840
bonds that we've been wanting to do. So it is a net benefit for Metro. I get it

773
01:05:37,840 --> 01:05:42,560
I don't want to see money circulate in downtown, but I actually have to agree with Council

774
01:05:42,560 --> 01:05:50,300
on the styles that the money that we make downtown benefits the city as a whole and helps

775
01:05:50,300 --> 01:05:56,360
us to fund the things that we fund a significant portion of what we fund comes from downtown.

776
01:05:56,960 --> 01:06:03,200
So this is a win-win for Metro and I encourage my colleagues to support it.

777
01:06:03,220 --> 01:06:04,240
Thank you, Ms. Tunes.

778
01:06:04,240 --> 01:06:06,220
next in the Q's Councilmember Johnson, you're

779
01:06:06,220 --> 01:06:06,840
recognized, ma'am.

780
01:06:06,960 --> 01:06:08,080
The previous question, right?

781
01:06:09,340 --> 01:06:12,920
Councilmember Johnson has called the previous question.

782
01:06:13,820 --> 01:06:15,480
This is a non-dividable motion.

783
01:06:15,560 --> 01:06:18,980
It requires two thirds of those voting in the affirmative

784
01:06:18,980 --> 01:06:20,860
to end debate.

785
01:06:21,920 --> 01:06:24,040
We'll try it first by voice.

786
01:06:24,360 --> 01:06:26,660
Again, remember, it's number not volume.

787
01:06:27,460 --> 01:06:30,080
If I can't ascertain it, we'll go to the machine.

788
01:06:30,240 --> 01:06:32,300
If you are in favor of the previous question,

789
01:06:32,300 --> 01:06:39,240
you want to end debate. All in favor of the previous question, please say aye. All against

790
01:06:39,240 --> 01:06:41,500
calling the question, please say no.

791
01:06:44,590 --> 01:06:48,650
Okay. Mr. Clark, would you please put that on the board,

792
01:06:48,970 --> 01:06:49,470
please sir?

793
01:06:52,610 --> 01:06:57,710
I think there was a little volume action happening over here, but in an abundance of caution.

794
01:07:27,100 --> 01:07:33,320
Followed 10, Mr. Clerk. Please show the vote. Okay. The motion to call the question has failed.

795
01:07:33,360 --> 01:07:40,280
It does require two thirds of those voting with 24 voting in favor 13 against. All right.

796
01:07:40,700 --> 01:07:46,980
So, debate continues. Next in the queue is Councilmember Suara, you're recognized, ma'am.

797
01:07:48,440 --> 01:07:49,740
Thank you, Vice Mayor.

798
01:07:50,840 --> 01:07:52,140
I rise in support of this bill.

799
01:07:53,100 --> 01:07:58,580
A lot of conversation went in budget yesterday, and also I hear the concerns from my colleagues

800
01:07:58,580 --> 01:08:02,480
and this skepticism about what this does and the money.

801
01:08:03,000 --> 01:08:06,120
But for those that were financed yesterday, a couple of things with this course.

802
01:08:06,260 --> 01:08:11,880
And that was the fact that the House in Shasha House in Bond that we've been trying to do all this time.

803
01:08:12,200 --> 01:08:14,260
We will be able to do it because of the backstop.

804
01:08:14,860 --> 01:08:24,780
I shared before with many of you that the deal was like that when it started, it was not good to start with agree with my colleagues and we could have gone and make it better deal.

805
01:08:24,840 --> 01:08:31,100
We could have gone and asked for money to put elsewhere, we did not, but the deal that was in front of us is the deal that is in front of us.

806
01:08:31,640 --> 01:08:39,480
Now, I also want people to understand that when you talking about sales tax, 7% of our sales tax belong to the state.

807
01:08:39,480 --> 01:08:47,120
As is going to 0.75 and so if we're not the state is allowing us to keep that in that the hotel tax is part of it

808
01:08:47,120 --> 01:08:52,760
But the sex access is a big point of it. And when we did the the the conversation with budget the other day

809
01:08:52,760 --> 01:09:00,360
The finance she also shows that because of this we are getting net money into our general general fund as well

810
01:09:00,360 --> 01:09:03,220
So it is a net benefit. We don't trust the state

811
01:09:03,220 --> 01:09:06,560
We don't know how the money will be used. Yes, but I believe that yesterday

812
01:09:06,560 --> 01:09:13,140
we've got a commitment from the Finance Director that when we save money and from not supporting

813
01:09:13,140 --> 01:09:17,780
this bond, any more that we will be able to put that money in housing.

814
01:09:17,820 --> 01:09:23,720
We will also talk that we also asked that we have the opportunity to now distribute that

815
01:09:23,720 --> 01:09:28,200
300 that we're not spending on the East Bank to make sure that it goes all around the city

816
01:09:28,200 --> 01:09:28,960
throughout the country.

817
01:09:29,160 --> 01:09:31,180
So we have the opportunity to do that.

818
01:09:31,320 --> 01:09:33,060
We've never been able to do that before.

819
01:09:33,060 --> 01:09:40,860
When we were in financial crisis our first time it took a lot for the director to be able to get 20 million out of that thing

820
01:09:40,860 --> 01:09:46,440
because it was the state money was the way that it was drawn. I've always hoped that we would get money out of there

821
01:09:46,440 --> 01:09:53,500
so for me the fact that we were able to get 300 million out I think is a win. I wish it struck you differently

822
01:09:53,500 --> 01:09:57,340
yes I agree maybe it should have been struck you for us and if something else I agree

823
01:09:57,340 --> 01:10:01,540
but the fact that we can take that out I want us to look at it as when we take it out

824
01:10:01,540 --> 01:10:04,660
And we're not using our money to fund these back in the first structure.

825
01:10:05,220 --> 01:10:10,000
That money is now available for us to put wherever we did meet feet to put it in.

826
01:10:10,000 --> 01:10:15,240
And that back stuff for anybody that is interested in funding and things like that.

827
01:10:15,440 --> 01:10:21,320
When you are backstopping somebody's buns and debt, it means that if they don't pay it,

828
01:10:21,580 --> 01:10:22,680
we have to pay it.

829
01:10:22,680 --> 01:10:24,840
That is something that we should never sign up for.

830
01:10:24,940 --> 01:10:26,940
It's like guaranteeing your kids' car.

831
01:10:27,400 --> 01:10:29,780
And then if they don't pay, you have to be on the hook for it.

832
01:10:29,920 --> 01:10:31,140
We don't want to do that.

833
01:10:31,140 --> 01:10:38,800
And so this is an opportunity for us to get out of that and not be the one signing up or responsible for the body, if it's not pitch.

834
01:10:39,040 --> 01:10:44,160
So with all of that, yes, I'm skeptical, but we got the promise that we can move it somewhere else.

835
01:10:44,180 --> 01:10:49,140
And the fact that we did what you do all of this with that is the reason why I'm supporting it. Thank you.

836
01:10:49,180 --> 01:10:55,440
Thank you, Ms. Farad. Next, it's councilmember Porterfield, but I'm proud to tell you, recognize?

837
01:10:59,020 --> 01:11:05,340
Thank you, Vice Mayor. I don't know if I'm rising in support or opposition. I've really struggled

838
01:11:05,340 --> 01:11:11,920
with this and thank you to finance and directory for spending so much time with me going

839
01:11:11,920 --> 01:11:15,440
going through this. I think it was almost two hours going through this.

840
01:11:16,220 --> 01:11:20,080
With the fine to come because I wanted to make sure that I considered all things.

841
01:11:20,340 --> 01:11:23,900
There are things about this. I like things about it that I don't like just want to be really

842
01:11:23,900 --> 01:11:32,900
But I think for something that is this big, like it's important that we get some of this information on the records that our constituents can kind of know like what we're dealing with here.

843
01:11:34,440 --> 01:11:36,000
I don't love the idea.

844
01:11:36,960 --> 01:11:42,580
I guess it's above a benefit and the opposite of a benefit, whatever that would be.

845
01:11:42,760 --> 01:11:46,620
The idea of like 300 million going to East Bank.

846
01:11:47,340 --> 01:12:00,760
And in essence they freeze up more money to do things like across the city and we're saying that we want it to be able to use those bonds to be able to get affordable housing, which is something that many of us want across the board is something that we've been advocating for.

847
01:12:01,040 --> 01:12:08,780
But it does feel like trickle down economics, it feels like let's put plenty over here, let's free up this money for each bank so that we can have money for other things.

848
01:12:08,780 --> 01:12:11,840
We know that's not going to be a dollar for dollars, so we know that that's not going to be

849
01:12:11,840 --> 01:12:15,860
$300 million that we're seeing going to these affordable housing funds or going it's a

850
01:12:15,860 --> 01:12:16,160
neighborhood.

851
01:12:16,900 --> 01:12:18,860
I do like that it's free and up the backstop.

852
01:12:19,060 --> 01:12:22,560
I do like that it will free up many for the affordable housing funds.

853
01:12:23,140 --> 01:12:28,040
I do have a concern that if we vote this down, the money just is there and we're not

854
01:12:28,040 --> 01:12:30,300
getting the benefit out of it.

855
01:12:30,380 --> 01:12:33,220
I do ask questions about these taxes.

856
01:12:33,300 --> 01:12:37,100
If we vote this down, like can we use this tax money for something else?

857
01:12:37,100 --> 01:12:42,320
But these taxes, like the room occupancy tax and the rental car fee and the hotel tax,

858
01:12:42,620 --> 01:12:47,960
these are taxes that are imposed by the state, meaning the state says where these

859
01:12:47,960 --> 01:12:53,160
tax dollars go. So we don't have the ability to come in and say, hey, we're going to use that

860
01:12:53,160 --> 01:12:57,680
for affordable housing or we're going to use it for schools. Like we can't redirect those revenue

861
01:12:57,680 --> 01:13:04,640
streams elsewhere. So, you know, if we do vote it down, we're still we're not getting any benefit out of it.

862
01:13:04,640 --> 01:13:08,880
if we pass it, we at least get the benefit of the $300 million.

863
01:13:08,880 --> 01:13:11,340
And I don't want to say at least because $300 million is a lot of money

864
01:13:11,340 --> 01:13:12,800
that's widened up in the sneeze head.

865
01:13:13,460 --> 01:13:18,820
It's also some other benefits that we are looking at, like saving the

866
01:13:18,820 --> 01:13:23,360
general fund, the $91 million over the 16 years until $233

867
01:13:23,360 --> 01:13:25,060
and preserving the capital spending plan.

868
01:13:25,820 --> 01:13:32,220
So I don't love it, but I do think that it gives us more benefit

869
01:13:32,220 --> 01:13:40,060
to pass it. Then if we don't pass it, I'm also concerned that if we vote it down, we still don't get,

870
01:13:40,400 --> 01:13:44,240
we still can't allocate these funds the way that we want to allocate the funds.

871
01:13:44,840 --> 01:13:49,640
We're always talking about wanting to get money out of the convention center. This has been the only way

872
01:13:49,640 --> 01:13:55,360
that we're going to be able to get meaning for dollars out of the convention center. And lastly,

873
01:13:55,640 --> 01:13:59,680
I'm not convinced that the convention center needs expand. And at this point, so I also have council member

874
01:14:00,760 --> 01:14:07,500
are there? Thank you, as Porterfield. Next in the key is Councilmember Bradford, you're

875
01:14:07,500 --> 01:14:13,020
recognized sir. Thank you, Vice Mayor. What I ran in 2019, one of the things our

876
01:14:13,020 --> 01:14:18,040
ran on was the evils of the TDC and the amount of money that just stays downtown. It

877
01:14:18,040 --> 01:14:19,820
doesn't come out into our neighborhoods.

878
01:14:22,000 --> 01:14:24,820
Tonight I'm voting in favor of this because of

879
01:14:24,820 --> 01:14:30,980
data that I've seen, the information I have seen, like we've heard tonight, the TDC was not really

880
01:14:30,980 --> 01:14:36,380
a positive thing for the city. There's a lot of money that we couldn't use. We vote this down.

881
01:14:36,660 --> 01:14:44,100
There's still money we can't use. We vote this up. Then we free up tax bond issuance. I don't

882
01:14:44,100 --> 01:14:49,240
like it when we have any deal that has a metro backstop. As I mentioned before, if something goes

883
01:14:49,240 --> 01:14:53,100
South, we, the taxpayers are responsible for paying that bill.

884
01:14:53,400 --> 01:14:55,400
This takes that responsibility off the taxpayers.

885
01:14:56,000 --> 01:14:57,000
That's a good thing.

886
01:14:57,480 --> 01:14:59,960
It frees off the ability for Metro to issue bonds for-

887
01:15:00,000 --> 01:15:05,360
Capital projects elsewhere in the city instead of the East Bank. That's good for our communities outside

888
01:15:05,360 --> 01:15:11,720
of downtown. Is this the best deal we could have gotten? No. Is it perfect? No. But it is slightly better

889
01:15:11,720 --> 01:15:16,060
than what we had before, which is nothing. We are getting some benefit out of this. For that,

890
01:15:16,160 --> 01:15:21,140
I'm willing to support this. Considering my previous opinions on this area.

891
01:15:21,140 --> 01:15:24,900
Thank you, Mr. Bradford. Next to the queue, Councilmember Johnson.

892
01:15:26,200 --> 01:15:33,880
Yeah, there's no more left in no one else left in the queue already.

893
01:15:35,040 --> 01:15:48,900
With that, and knowing that we have some notes already declared from the floor, we will need to vote by machine as this is resolution.

894
01:15:48,900 --> 01:15:54,140
So Council, our rather, Mr. Clark, would you please load the votes?

895
01:16:48,360 --> 01:16:50,540
With all votes in, Mr. Clark, please show the vote.

896
01:16:52,860 --> 01:16:58,220

898
01:17:03,220 --> 01:17:10,940

a one-meeting deferral to an in-favors year

909
01:17:45,820 --> 01:17:46,700
against zero-not voting.

910
01:17:47,340 --> 01:17:49,800
OK, with that, Mr. Cortez, that is a mandatory deferral

911
01:17:49,800 --> 01:17:52,520
by Rule 8.1, so that is deferred one meeting.

912
01:17:53,420 --> 01:17:56,540
That's will be taken up again at the first meeting in September.

913

Vow, Welsh, Johnston, Nash, Rutherford, Benedict, Ewing Lee, Cap, Gad, Greg, Hencock,

949
01:20:16,000 --> 01:20:16,600
and Allen.

950
01:20:16,980 --> 01:20:21,500
This is Resolution, Commanding, and Honoring, Brenda Wynn, upon her retirement from the Office

951
01:20:21,500 --> 01:20:24,820
of the Davidson County Clerk Council Member Suara.

952
01:20:25,260 --> 01:20:26,440
You are recognized.

953
01:20:28,440 --> 01:20:30,900
Thank you, Iismea, COVID-19, please.

954
01:20:31,000 --> 01:20:34,700
Yes, for the report of the Rules, Confirmations Committee, Chair Cash.

955
01:20:34,700 --> 01:20:34,920
Sure.

956
01:20:35,640 --> 01:20:37,520
We voted to approve 7th

957
01:20:37,520 --> 01:20:37,800
favors.

958
01:20:37,980 --> 01:20:38,980
You're against the one I've heard.

959
01:20:39,220 --> 01:20:39,400
All right.

960
01:20:39,460 --> 01:20:40,280
Back to you, Miss Fara.

961
01:20:40,600 --> 01:20:40,800
Thank you.

962
01:20:40,820 --> 01:20:42,360
I'd like to renew my motion.

963
01:20:42,640 --> 01:20:44,820
And I want to add 12.3 to it.

964
01:20:45,020 --> 01:20:46,300
And then a brief explanation.

965
01:20:46,680 --> 01:20:47,100
Okay.

966
01:20:47,820 --> 01:20:49,520
So there is a motion to approve.

967
01:20:49,960 --> 01:20:56,900
With a point three applied such that all members voting in the affirmative will be listed

968
01:20:56,900 --> 01:20:58,580
as co-sponsors.

969
01:20:58,760 --> 01:21:00,060
Is there a second for that motion?

970
01:21:00,900 --> 01:21:01,200
All right.

971
01:21:01,340 --> 01:21:01,960
Go ahead, man.

972
01:21:02,200 --> 01:21:02,880
Thank you, Vice Mayor.

973
01:21:02,880 --> 01:21:08,720
So this is a very important one for me and know, I mean, you can tell by the cost monsters

974
01:21:08,720 --> 01:21:12,880
that we have already misbranded when there's not a lot of people in this city with the

975
01:21:12,880 --> 01:21:14,960
work that she did as the county clerk.

976
01:21:15,380 --> 01:21:19,620
She was the first African American woman to be a constitutional officer and she's brought

977
01:21:19,620 --> 01:21:23,380
a lot of changes to that office from using numbers to the kids.

978
01:21:23,540 --> 01:21:29,920
I mean, when you go into that office, it's working a whole lot better, but what I love misbranded

979
01:21:29,920 --> 01:21:34,980
about is that all the community organizations that she's a part of, and how much she actually

980
01:21:34,980 --> 01:21:39,740
a lot of this city and how many things she's done, there's hardly anything important

981
01:21:39,740 --> 01:21:43,860
going on that she doesn't have a hand in, and she's usually one of those people that isn't

982
01:21:43,860 --> 01:21:44,260
the background.

983
01:21:44,500 --> 01:21:49,440
You don't see her in the front a lot, but she does a whole lot for the community, and so it is

984
01:21:49,440 --> 01:21:54,660
my pleasure to bring this resolution to thank her for 14 years of service in that office.

985
01:21:54,860 --> 01:21:58,240
I mean, she's done more, she continues to do more, and I know she will continue even after

986
01:21:58,240 --> 01:22:03,580
retirement, but I think it's worthwhile for us to just rise, and thanks to somebody who

987
01:22:04,580 --> 01:22:09,440
was a servant leader and opened the doors for so many and continues to serve in so many

988
01:22:09,440 --> 01:22:13,960
ways, not just in a public office but throughout the city, and with that I renew my

989
01:22:13,960 --> 01:22:14,360
motion.

990
01:22:15,600 --> 01:22:20,520
Thank you, Ms. Tvara. I appreciate you bringing this. Next in the queue is Council Member

991
01:22:20,520 --> 01:22:22,380
Porterfield, Madam Protender, you're recognized.

992
01:22:24,960 --> 01:22:29,980
Thank you, Vice Mayor. I actually get Syria, at least it's Council of the Sorororororororororor

993
01:22:29,980 --> 01:22:37,420
get ready to stand up and speak. The honorable Brenda Wayne has just been a force and her heart

994
01:22:37,420 --> 01:22:42,940
for this city and her service for this city like council members were saying she doesn't

995
01:22:42,940 --> 01:22:49,980
her hands in so many things with regards to this city and has supported so many initiatives so much

996
01:22:49,980 --> 01:22:55,920
of that behind the scenes you may never see her face or her name on it but her footprint is on it

997
01:22:55,920 --> 01:23:00,420
And she, our fingerprint is on and she has touched just so many initiatives in the city.

998
01:23:00,600 --> 01:23:06,420
She truly is a statesman or stateswoman and knows how to work across the

999
01:23:06,420 --> 01:23:14,660
house and work with all people to just further the agenda of Nashville and where the people

1000
01:23:14,660 --> 01:23:15,320
in Nashville.

1001
01:23:15,700 --> 01:23:17,920
She is so dedicated to this position.

1002
01:23:18,100 --> 01:23:24,920
She loves the service that she has done during her time, and her tenure as the county clerk.

1003
01:23:24,920 --> 01:23:28,500
She has made so many improvements to this office.

1004
01:23:28,840 --> 01:23:31,920
Whenever you go to the office, I was just there recently.

1005
01:23:31,980 --> 01:23:33,100
I had to get some tags.

1006
01:23:33,600 --> 01:23:36,320
And every time I'm down there, just the efficiency,

1007
01:23:36,860 --> 01:23:38,900
the way that people are moving through the office quickly,

1008
01:23:39,000 --> 01:23:41,180
how happy the employees are.

1009
01:23:41,200 --> 01:23:43,540
And you could just see all of the improvements that she's made.

1010
01:23:44,000 --> 01:23:46,600
So we just want to congratulate her on her retirement

1011
01:23:46,600 --> 01:23:48,840
and just thank her for her service to the city.

1012
01:23:49,220 --> 01:23:50,560
Thank you, Madam Protem.

1013
01:23:51,200 --> 01:23:52,060
Next, Council Member.

1014
01:23:52,060 --> 01:23:53,640
I'm going to take your recognized hands.

1015
01:23:53,920 --> 01:23:54,980
Thank you, Vice Mayor.

1016
01:23:55,520 --> 01:23:59,040
So I can't say anything better than what my colleagues have already

1017
01:23:59,040 --> 01:23:59,320
said.

1018
01:23:59,760 --> 01:24:06,740
But I do want to tell a quick story about our, about Brenda.

1019
01:24:06,820 --> 01:24:08,600
I'm just going to call her, Brenda here on the floor,

1020
01:24:08,820 --> 01:24:10,240
the honorable Brenda win.

1021
01:24:11,740 --> 01:24:16,800
Long before I wanted to run for office, I asked a woman to marry me.

1022
01:24:16,800 --> 01:24:18,120
And she said yes.

1023
01:24:18,440 --> 01:24:20,500
And then we went a few months later

1024
01:24:20,500 --> 01:24:25,520
down to the county clerk's office to get the paperwork, and while we got the paperwork,

1025
01:24:25,660 --> 01:24:33,780
I was my normal, you know, rowdy self, and there's Brendan, she comes out and I said,

1026
01:24:33,920 --> 01:24:39,500
she said, you know, oh, so what are your plans? And you know, just really engaged with me.

1027
01:24:41,080 --> 01:24:47,380
And I said, will you marry us? And she said, absolutely. And she said, when? And I said,

1028
01:24:47,380 --> 01:24:52,100
We got to pick a date and we don't my wife and I don't know if it's November 21 or 26.

1029
01:24:52,420 --> 01:24:53,560
We've got to write it down somewhere.

1030
01:24:53,780 --> 01:24:55,100
We never know every year.

1031
01:24:55,320 --> 01:24:57,500
But it's on the paperwork that she gave us and that she's signed.

1032
01:24:58,200 --> 01:25:01,540
And she went over to the...

1033
01:25:02,320 --> 01:25:04,300
She said, where do you want to do it and when?

1034
01:25:04,420 --> 01:25:06,060
And we said, how about the pedestrian bridge?

1035
01:25:06,740 --> 01:25:08,880
And she said, absolutely, I'll be there.

1036
01:25:09,160 --> 01:25:10,940
Now I was just a member of the public.

1037
01:25:11,460 --> 01:25:13,420
I was not an elected official.

1038
01:25:13,840 --> 01:25:17,260
I walked in her office and she said, I'm on it.

1039
01:25:17,260 --> 01:25:23,300
let's do it and she went and she did it and we've got photos and it was just a, you know,

1040
01:25:23,480 --> 01:25:32,520
we aloped but Brenda was there and that's who she is and I'll forever be grateful for that

1041
01:25:32,520 --> 01:25:39,960
memory and of course all of the work that she's done for the city and you know, in her official

1042
01:25:39,960 --> 01:25:46,200
capacity and in her other official capacities with the organizations with which she works. So thank

1043
01:25:46,200 --> 01:25:53,060
Brenda, Kathleen Murphy and I were texting and so I wanted to invoke the Murphy rule because

1044
01:25:53,060 --> 01:25:58,900
I know she equally respects the honorable Brenda win, but I know that Council Member Swara

1045
01:25:58,900 --> 01:26:06,140
already used our existing title for that, but in honor of the honorable Kathleen Murphy,

1046
01:26:06,440 --> 01:26:11,280
I would like to invoke the Murphy rule, but I don't know if anybody seconded the 13.2.

1047
01:26:12,220 --> 01:26:19,320
So that was already a part of Ms. Swara's initial motion and it was properly seconded.

1048
01:26:20,200 --> 01:26:25,940
So will I've said what I've said and so if the Honorable Kathleen Murphy is watching

1049
01:26:25,940 --> 01:26:28,560
Kathleen threatened me about text to tell you if you didn't say it.

1050
01:26:28,940 --> 01:26:32,220
Maybe that would be in character.

1051
01:26:32,520 --> 01:26:32,960
Thank you.

1052
01:26:33,480 --> 01:26:37,680
Appreciate her authoring that rule during her time of service.

1053
01:26:38,420 --> 01:26:44,720
So, it is applied to this resolution, and thank you for sharing that story, Ms. Benedict.

1054
01:26:45,200 --> 01:26:47,360
Okay, Councillor Reveille, you're recognized, ma'am.

1055
01:26:47,540 --> 01:26:53,040
Thank you so much, Madam President, and I'm so glad I can continue on with the Councillor

1056
01:26:53,620 --> 01:26:59,680
Benedict's love story, because today I had the greatest privilege of marrying a couple in

1057
01:26:59,680 --> 01:27:04,160
my district, and we were talking about, you know, them going to the county clerk's office, and

1058
01:27:04,160 --> 01:27:10,080
are so excited to submit their marriage license and I do want to think the Honorable Brenda

1059
01:27:10,080 --> 01:27:17,140
Wind for making sure that all the love that you know happens here in Nashville is recorded

1060
01:27:17,980 --> 01:27:22,940
and it's been such a privilege and I will say you know when I was running for office and she

1061
01:27:22,940 --> 01:27:27,820
was always so kind and everywhere you see here in the city wherever you are, whether in official

1062
01:27:27,820 --> 01:27:33,000
or not she's always I think willing to help always want to be a partner, always wanting to make

1063
01:27:33,000 --> 01:27:39,820
that all of us can make sure that our city continues to be led by great people and she has

1064
01:27:39,820 --> 01:27:44,940
been such a great example to so many of us. So I just want to congratulate her on her

1065
01:27:44,940 --> 01:27:47,820
retirement and I love that it's very fitting.

1066
01:27:49,940 --> 01:27:51,880
That is a musical track.

1067
01:27:54,000 --> 01:28:02,980
That today on that we

1068
01:28:02,980 --> 01:28:11,220
couple in the district. So thank you so much. Thank you, Ms. Bob. All right, that concludes our discussion.

1069
01:28:12,600 --> 01:28:19,780
All in favor of this resolution, please say A. Any voting no or abstaining? Of course not. All right,

1070
01:28:19,940 --> 01:28:26,540
Council has adopted this resolution. And again, congratulations to the Honorable Brenda Wynn.

1071
01:28:27,380 --> 01:28:38,460
Next, it's agenda item 40, resolution 2026-2220 sponsors, Vows, Styles, Cooper, Nash,

1072
01:28:38,800 --> 01:28:42,200
Gads, Swara, Cap, Web, Druffle, Huffman, Tunes, Ellison, Allen.

1073
01:28:42,440 --> 01:28:46,960
This is a resolution recognizing the 40th anniversary of the Master Gardeners of Davidson

1074
01:28:46,960 --> 01:28:47,560
County.

1075
01:28:47,940 --> 01:28:50,680
Council member, Vows, you are recognized, Madam Chair.

1076
01:28:51,140 --> 01:28:52,040
Thank you, Madam President.

1077
01:28:52,320 --> 01:28:53,840
Can I have committee reports, please?

1078
01:28:53,840 --> 01:28:58,520
Yes, for the report of the Rules, Confirmations and Public Elections Committee, Chair Cash.

1079
01:28:58,760 --> 01:28:58,940
Go ahead.

1080
01:28:59,540 --> 01:29:02,400
We've had to approve four in favor of zero against zero and not voting.

1081
01:29:02,900 --> 01:29:03,180
All righty.

1082
01:29:03,180 --> 01:29:04,040
Back to you, Ms. Ville.

1083
01:29:04,280 --> 01:29:04,660
Thank you.

1084
01:29:04,780 --> 01:29:06,120
Motion to approve with the brief comment.

1085
01:29:06,960 --> 01:29:07,500
Go ahead, man.

1086
01:29:07,920 --> 01:29:08,860
Thank you so much.

1087
01:29:09,380 --> 01:29:12,720
Colleagues, it's my pleasure to be able to celebrate this really special milestone.

1088
01:29:13,460 --> 01:29:16,540
The 40th anniversary of the Master Gardeners of Davidson County.

1089
01:29:17,000 --> 01:29:19,840
For four decades, this wonderful organization has shared knowledge,

1090
01:29:19,840 --> 01:29:24,120
encouraged a love of gardening, supported our community, and helped make

1091
01:29:24,120 --> 01:29:27,960
middle Tennessee a more beautiful place. This university is really an

1092
01:29:27,960 --> 01:29:32,120
wonderful opportunity to recognize the dedication and passion of all

1093
01:29:32,120 --> 01:29:36,300
the volunteers, Passen President, who have made the master gardeners such a

1094
01:29:36,300 --> 01:29:40,740
valued part of our community. This past year I had the privilege of being part of

1095
01:29:40,740 --> 01:29:45,200
the most recent class, where you're trained with 40 hours of horticultural classes,

1096
01:29:45,520 --> 01:29:49,540
and then you have 40 hours of volunteer community service, and I really encourage

1097
01:29:49,540 --> 01:29:54,720
anyone in the community is interested in applying to do that for the next master gardener class.

1098
01:29:55,640 --> 01:29:59,960
And there's even, you know, more to look forward to this year, the master gardeners will have a...

1099
01:30:00,000 --> 01:30:05,960
Beautiful, butterfly exhibit at the National Fair. That's going to run from September 11th to 20th. And so wonderful

1100
01:30:05,960 --> 01:30:10,780
chance for families and for visitors to learn more about butterflies, gardening and the importance

1101
01:30:10,780 --> 01:30:17,700
of creating habitats that support beautiful pollinators. So under the leadership of Amy Denlap and

1102
01:30:17,700 --> 01:30:23,770
Karen Brown, I really just want to congratulate the Master Gardeners of Davidson County on 40 remarkable years of

1103
01:30:23,770 --> 01:30:30,150
service and may the next 40B just as inspiring, educational, and so happy for the University

1104
01:30:30,150 --> 01:30:32,050
of the Master Gardeners of David's Academy.

1105
01:30:32,450 --> 01:30:32,750

Okay.

Okay.

1226
01:37:24,170 --> 01:37:24,970
It's properly moved.

1227
01:37:24,970 --> 01:37:29,090
second to dimmer on to discussion. First, in the key, is Councilmember Parker your

1228
01:37:29,090 --> 01:37:29,930
reconouser.

1229
01:37:30,410 --> 01:37:34,070
Thank you, Vice-mer, I just wanted to call attention to the fact that we talk a lot about

1230
01:37:34,070 --> 01:37:39,430
the towards and development zone of the revenue sources that contribute to this convention

1231
01:37:40,270 --> 01:37:47,890
funding. The TDC is not even half of that. And the State portion of the TDC is, you

1232
01:37:47,890 --> 01:37:54,910
know, like a seven to two ratio, basically. So, you know, a lot of assertions are made about, you know,

1233
01:37:54,910 --> 01:38:01,110
have based on their share of the TDC, but really the funding sources that we are reauthorizing

1234
01:38:01,110 --> 01:38:05,150
with this proposed legislation make up the lion's share of the funding.

1235
01:38:05,190 --> 01:38:09,710
These are countywide taxes that are levied within Davidson County.

1236
01:38:10,130 --> 01:38:12,310
There is no state portion of these.

1237
01:38:12,850 --> 01:38:18,150
And these do make up the bulk of the financing that would go toward the convention center.

1238
01:38:18,150 --> 01:38:25,210
And again, the way that the state has it set up, the benefits of these funds are in many

1239
01:38:25,210 --> 01:38:29,850
cases, not in every case, but in many cases are restricted to a certain geographic area,

1240
01:38:30,450 --> 01:38:31,470
which is the TDZ.

1241
01:38:31,850 --> 01:38:36,410
So, we're collecting taxes, you stay at a hotel in Goodlitzville, and David's in county,

1242
01:38:36,870 --> 01:38:43,050
your pan taxes that'll go to support the Broadway bailout in the TDZ, but not for a struggling

1243
01:38:43,050 --> 01:38:44,130
business in Goodlitzville.

1244
01:38:44,550 --> 01:38:45,650
I just don't think it's fair.

1245
01:38:45,650 --> 01:38:48,550
I think this is a terrible arrangement. I'll be voting against this.

1246
01:38:48,770 --> 01:38:51,230
All right. Next in the queue is Council.

1247
01:38:51,930 --> 01:38:58,450
Nope. Is there any further discussion on this item that is on its second of three ratings?

1248
01:38:59,610 --> 01:39:01,950
Seeing none. All in favor, please say aye.

1249
01:39:02,690 --> 01:39:05,050
Any voting now? Okay.

1250
01:39:07,890 --> 01:39:10,530
Any abstaining? Okay.

1251
01:39:11,290 --> 01:39:21,350
colleagues, this is on its second of three ratings. Hearing no votes and understanding that there will be on the third and final rating, we will go on the boards and record that vote.

1252
01:39:22,110 --> 01:39:27,250
But the eyes have it at this juncture and so this moves on to its third rating at our next meeting.

1253
01:39:27,250 --> 01:39:35,410
Okay. Next is agenda item 64. This is ordinance BL-2026-149-8.

1254
01:39:36,510 --> 01:39:42,050

01:40:11,910 --> 01:40:15,070
late file aid again, our aid in favor is zero against zero, not voting.

01:40:18,540 --> 01:40:18,960
Right.

1265
01:40:20,820 --> 01:40:21,300
Okay.

1266

01:40:31,760 --> 01:40:33,180
Probably seconded.

01:40:33,180 --> 01:40:34,880
You have the floor missapulveda.

1272
01:40:35,040 --> 01:40:35,920
Thank you, Vice Mayor.

1273
01:40:36,300 --> 01:40:42,060
I do have a substitute and a late filed amendment

1274
01:40:42,060 --> 01:40:43,240
to the substitute.

1275
01:40:43,720 --> 01:40:46,140
Why don't you move that substitute first?

1276
01:40:46,140 --> 01:40:47,240
This is what I would suggest.

1277
01:40:47,360 --> 01:40:48,000
Move the substitute.

1278
01:40:48,580 --> 01:40:50,460
Okay, there is a motion to substitute.

1279
01:40:50,960 --> 01:40:52,320
It's properly seconded.

1280
01:40:52,320 --> 01:40:53,900
Is there anything you want to share about the substitute?

1281
01:40:53,900 --> 01:41:15,380
Yes. So colleagues, the substitute does a couple of things, right? We heard, and I'm repeating a couple of things that we're said in committee, but not everyone was there. So there was a bit of concern from different departments in regard to what their current drones do.

1282
01:41:15,380 --> 01:41:26,640
So for example, Metro Waterhouse drones that take a look at pipes, some departments use drones in their communications to take video and then post that video.

1283
01:41:27,460 --> 01:41:38,440
So we wanted to make sure that we were not going to conflict with that. And so this substitute specifically addresses the drones as first responder pilot program.

1284
01:41:38,440 --> 01:41:48,680
It also requires that there be a public hearing whenever there is a pilot program, even

1285
01:41:48,680 --> 01:41:57,380
before I was on council, the body before many of us were seated, had a specific requirement

1286
01:41:57,380 --> 01:42:02,940
that there be a public hearing when a new surveillance technology was brought forward.

1287
01:42:02,940 --> 01:42:12,560
Regardless of a contract was approved or not, to give the general public an opportunity to speak and give their thoughts.

1288
01:42:12,820 --> 01:42:29,980
And so I wanted to make sure that we codified that and there are specific regulations into what a drone as a first responder can be used as there are four.

1289
01:42:29,980 --> 01:42:38,800
So, one is an active shooter incident, a hostage situation, an active search for a missing person,

1290
01:42:38,800 --> 01:42:44,080
and that was added to in large part to some conversations on this floor.

1291
01:42:44,500 --> 01:42:56,820
And then the last one is for a state of emergency declared by the mayor of Nashville for a period of up to 10 days.

1292
01:42:56,820 --> 01:43:00,680
And this is mainly for natural disaster.

1293
01:43:01,080 --> 01:43:03,340
So if there's a flood or something, et cetera.

1294
01:43:04,620 --> 01:43:12,840
So we also added two new items in which we eliminated.

1295
01:43:13,740 --> 01:43:23,600
We made sure to take out a ton of Ms. Drown.

1296
01:43:23,600 --> 01:43:28,160
So some people had some questions in regards to this.

1297
01:43:28,640 --> 01:43:37,340
So this would eliminate the use of drones that are not manned by a physical person.

1298
01:43:37,660 --> 01:43:39,560
So a drone manned by AI.

1299
01:43:40,540 --> 01:43:43,780
So Metro would not be able to use this type of drone.

1300
01:43:45,760 --> 01:43:52,280
And so this would not affect private drones, just Metro drones manned by AI.

1301
01:43:52,280 --> 01:44:00,860
And then we also remove facial recognition from all metro departments and currently no metro departments use facial recognition.

1302
01:44:01,500 --> 01:44:03,280
So that is what the substitute does.

1303
01:44:04,540 --> 01:44:06,640
And with that, I would like to move.

1304
01:44:07,220 --> 01:44:10,320
Well, I would like to move to suspend the rules.

1305
01:44:10,680 --> 01:44:13,360
No, we have to vote on your steps.

1306
01:44:13,380 --> 01:44:17,320
And with that, I would like to ask for your support.

1307
01:44:17,320 --> 01:44:27,660
So we worked on this quite a bit, going back and forth with community members, different departments and I would ask for your support.

1308
01:44:28,160 --> 01:44:42,000
All right. There is a motion to substitute with the sponsors substitute. It was properly seconded and you have heard the description of that substitute by the sponsor.

1309
01:44:42,000 --> 01:44:48,240
Or is there any discussion on the motion to substitute with Mr. Paul that is substitute?

1310
01:44:49,580 --> 01:44:53,140
Okay, seeing none on favor please say aye.

1311
01:44:54,180 --> 01:44:55,800
Any voting no?

1312
01:44:56,680 --> 01:44:59,980
Okay, one no vote on the motion to substitute.

1313
01:45:00,430 --> 01:45:15,910
Any abstinence? One abstinence in there from the House. Okay. So, the substitute is on the bill, Mr. Pulveda. Do you seek to renew your motion to approve as substituted?

1314
01:45:17,350 --> 01:45:21,990
Yes. I renew my motion. Okay. To approve as substituted is her second.

1315
01:45:29,690 --> 01:45:30,410
Okay.

1316
01:45:30,410 --> 01:45:37,610
I'm seeking to be recognized at this time, so I heard you say that you have a late-filed

1317
01:45:37,610 --> 01:45:47,490
amendment. Yes, I'd like to move to Spend the rules. Okay. Mr. Cash, Mr. Chair, I understand

1318
01:45:47,490 --> 01:45:53,610
that you took up this substitute. Go ahead, sir. We approved the late-filed nature for

1319
01:45:53,610 --> 01:46:00,170
favor zero again zero or not voting. Okay. Having heard the report of chair cash and members

1320
01:46:00,170 --> 01:46:05,750
having received this amendment, I think about two o'clock today regarding a typographical

1321
01:46:05,750 --> 01:46:13,460
error, is there any objection to sufficient of the rules? Seeing none, the rules are suspended.

1322
01:46:14,540 --> 01:46:18,880
So you might offer this amendment if you wish to do so, miss if all of that. Move for approval

1323
01:46:18,880 --> 01:46:25,060
with the brief comment. Okay. Is there a second? All right. Go ahead, ma'am. This just fixes a typo

1324
01:46:25,060 --> 01:46:37,220
in that last section 5L2. So just fixing some typos. So I would just ask for your approval.

1325
01:46:37,760 --> 01:46:41,400
All right. Is there any discussion on the motion to amend?

1326
01:46:43,260 --> 01:46:50,200
Seeing none on favor the amendment, please say aye. Anybody know any abstaining? All right.

1327
01:46:50,200 --> 01:46:57,500
Is it your intent to renew your motion to my motion approve as substituted and as amended?

1328
01:46:58,460 --> 01:47:06,280
That's properly seconded and discussion continues at this time. Next to the key is council member Svara. You're recognized, ma'am

1329
01:47:07,530 --> 01:47:15,810
Thank you, Vice Mayor. I want to thank my colleague for bringing this legislation. I think that we all have to understand the purpose of it and what it serves

1330
01:47:15,810 --> 01:47:21,310
I would say that the weekend of the drone testing, I had no idea what's community members

1331
01:47:21,310 --> 01:47:24,790
that are tracking things like this that are called and said, you know, this was happening.

1332
01:47:25,390 --> 01:47:29,710
And I think as a government, we are responsible for making sure that, you know, we

1333
01:47:29,710 --> 01:47:34,290
transparent, we're open and people know what's going on. We have a rule in the book that says

1334
01:47:34,290 --> 01:47:39,090
that any surveillance technology has to be approved by council and it has to go to public hearing

1335
01:47:39,090 --> 01:47:43,910
that did not happen in this case. And so the purpose of this, which I'm glad that she brought,

1336
01:47:43,910 --> 01:47:49,050
make sure that that loophole, I don't even know if it's a loophole, but there's no way to

1337
01:47:49,050 --> 01:47:53,150
circumvent the rules that we have in the books. And so I'm grateful for that. I'm also happy

1338
01:47:53,150 --> 01:47:59,110
that she's worked tirelessly with departments to make sure that they know on intended consequences

1339
01:47:59,110 --> 01:48:04,650
so that departments, it doesn't affect private people, but as a police that are built in trust

1340
01:48:04,650 --> 01:48:08,890
with our community, that are saying that we're here, that we want to make sure we're not being

1341
01:48:08,890 --> 01:48:12,890
surveilled, we want to make sure that any time there's a technology that has a surveillance

1342
01:48:12,890 --> 01:48:15,910
that is actually discussed by us.

1343
01:48:15,950 --> 01:48:18,010
I would make sure that the parameters around it,

1344
01:48:18,010 --> 01:48:20,090
people said they look at what is collected,

1345
01:48:20,350 --> 01:48:21,690
and there's so many descriptions there.

1346
01:48:22,130 --> 01:48:24,850
But we never had the opportunity to even know what that is.

1347
01:48:24,970 --> 01:48:28,470
And so I'm grateful for that for this legislation,

1348
01:48:28,830 --> 01:48:30,490
because it makes sure that we're doing our work,

1349
01:48:30,990 --> 01:48:33,310
and that the police is coming to us any time.

1350
01:48:33,570 --> 01:48:34,610
The surveillance is being used,

1351
01:48:34,610 --> 01:48:37,950
and the community has the opportunity to say something about it.

1352
01:48:37,990 --> 01:48:38,670
Thank you.

1353
01:48:39,130 --> 01:48:40,970
Thank you, Ms. Warren. Next in the queue,

1354
01:48:40,970 --> 01:48:44,830
is Council Member Huffman, Mr. Chair, your reconaster.

1355
01:48:45,230 --> 01:48:47,350
I'm just here to call for any of these questions, but nobody follows.

1356
01:48:47,730 --> 01:48:53,590
Yeah, we're not going to do that, because there's nobody else in the queue, any further

1357
01:48:53,590 --> 01:48:54,050
discussion.

1358
01:48:54,970 --> 01:49:01,110
All right, seeing none, there is a motion to approve on second reading as substituted

1359
01:49:01,110 --> 01:49:01,770
and amended.

1360
01:49:02,170 --> 01:49:03,930
It's properly seconded.

1361
01:49:04,250 --> 01:49:05,690
All in favor, please say aye.

1362
01:49:06,410 --> 01:49:06,910
Any voting?

1363
01:49:07,710 --> 01:49:07,770
No.

1364
01:49:08,590 --> 01:49:09,110
Okay.

1365
01:49:09,510 --> 01:49:10,190
Seeing cock.

1366
01:49:10,590 --> 01:49:12,330
Any abstaining.

1367
01:49:14,630 --> 01:49:14,890
Pardon.

1368
01:49:15,250 --> 01:49:17,410
Mr. Easeck is also a no.

1369
01:49:17,490 --> 01:49:18,810
And Ms. Siles is an abstention.

1370
01:49:19,710 --> 01:49:21,450
Again, colleagues see as have it.

1371
01:49:21,450 --> 01:49:24,510
This is a bill on its second of three ratings.

1372
01:49:25,090 --> 01:49:29,690
It will be on its third and final reading at the next meeting.

1373
01:49:30,150 --> 01:49:31,150
The first meeting in September.

1374
01:49:31,630 --> 01:49:31,990
All right.

1375
01:49:32,870 --> 01:49:36,110
Now we are on to bills on third reading.

1376
01:49:37,890 --> 01:49:46,930
First among those are companion bills, but Mr. Parker, if you would please move the first among

1377
01:49:46,930 --> 01:49:53,610
these paired bills, you're 71 and 72, because 71 will need that amendment, so let me

1378
01:49:53,610 --> 01:49:55,490
if I can read it into the record.

1379
01:49:55,830 --> 01:50:00,390
Again, item 71, ordinance be L-2026-1403, sponsor Parker.

1380
01:50:00,810 --> 01:50:03,950
This is an ordinance to mental out of 17, the Metro Code of Laws is an ordinance to metro

1381
01:50:03,950 --> 01:50:08,250
government by sending a specific plan for various properties located west of Gallagin Avenue,

1382
01:50:08,630 --> 01:50:12,090
east of M in Avenue, south of Maccork and Avenue, and north of Douglas Avenue,

1383
01:50:12,210 --> 01:50:18,850
these are ZM-SP and changing the zoning on properties from RS5, CS, and OR-22, SP, this is

1384
01:50:18,850 --> 01:50:25,830
19.09 acres to permit a mixed use development, all of which is described here in Goahead,

1385
01:50:25,850 --> 01:50:30,550
Sir, you're recognized. Thank you, Vice Mayor committee reports, please. All right, for the

1386
01:50:30,550 --> 01:50:34,090
report of the planning and zoning committee, Chair Horton, your

1387
01:50:34,090 --> 01:50:34,750
reconouser.

1388
01:50:34,890 --> 01:50:35,570
Thank you, Vice Mayor.

1389
01:50:35,950 --> 01:50:37,590
PNZ, consider the bill and an amendment.

1390
01:50:37,910 --> 01:50:41,310
We consider voted for approval of the amendment eight and

1391
01:50:41,310 --> 01:50:42,070
favor zero against zero.

1392
01:50:42,170 --> 01:50:45,390
And I'm voting for the bill as amended eight and favor zero

1393
01:50:45,390 --> 01:50:46,230
against zero and I'm voting.

1394
01:50:46,650 --> 01:50:47,030
OK.

1395
01:50:47,610 --> 01:50:48,530
All righty.

1396
01:50:48,570 --> 01:50:50,430
It's back to you for a motion.

1397
01:50:51,510 --> 01:50:53,590
Mr. Parker first for 1403.

1398
01:50:53,790 --> 01:50:57,450
And then once it's amended, we present that you can combine it

1399
01:50:57,450 --> 01:51:00,870
1404, it's companion to advance it together.

1400
01:51:01,070 --> 01:51:01,570
So go ahead, sir.

1401
01:51:01,810 --> 01:51:01,990
Wonderful.

1402
01:51:02,090 --> 01:51:04,790
I'll move 1403 for the purposes of moving my minute.

1403
01:51:05,450 --> 01:51:05,670
Okay.

1404
01:51:05,810 --> 01:51:06,970
Properly second and go ahead, sir.

1405
01:51:07,270 --> 01:51:08,110
I will move the amendment.

1406
01:51:08,870 --> 01:51:09,110
Okay.

1407
01:51:09,390 --> 01:51:10,550
Anything you want to share about the amendment?

1408
01:51:10,650 --> 01:51:13,150
Just very briefly, this amendment does three things.

1409
01:51:14,830 --> 01:51:20,230
It requires in-depth to evaluate the signal timing what we're doing here is we're

1410
01:51:20,230 --> 01:51:24,150
likely signalizing a new re-aligned intersection of right close to the intersection of Douglas

1411
01:51:24,150 --> 01:51:30,170
in Gallatin, we want to make sure that we're not recreating the speedway double untimed

1412
01:51:30,170 --> 01:51:31,630
signal scenarios.

1413
01:51:31,950 --> 01:51:37,170
We want to make sure that those are synchronized and smart and that endot is involved

1414
01:51:37,170 --> 01:51:39,350
with that process and that everything's good there.

1415
01:51:41,990 --> 01:51:48,930
It also puts it formalizes something that has been asked a lot about improving the

1416
01:51:48,930 --> 01:51:52,710
kind of landscaping and open space around the Ren-Romansion, which is being relocated.

1417
01:51:53,330 --> 01:51:56,610
there's already been a little bit of progress there. If you look on the development tracker,

1418
01:51:56,770 --> 01:52:02,850
you'll see that the, the, the, the, they re-plotted the parcel that the Rynra House is

1419
01:52:02,850 --> 01:52:07,510
going to sit on and, you know, they don't have a tenant yet. They don't have exactly final plans

1420
01:52:07,510 --> 01:52:11,570
for build up yet, but we do hope that this condition being formalized is going to yield kind

1421
01:52:11,570 --> 01:52:16,630
of a more inviting atmosphere around the mansion there. And then the last thing it does, you know,

1422
01:52:16,690 --> 01:52:20,030
in the plan, there's a depiction of how many town homes and how many free standing homes,

1423
01:52:20,030 --> 01:52:22,110
But it's not enumerated.

1424
01:52:22,310 --> 01:52:25,530
It's only sort of drawn and sketched out.

1425
01:52:25,930 --> 01:52:31,950
So we thought it was important to set a floor that at least 40% of the units in the residential portion behind the mansion.

1426
01:52:32,410 --> 01:52:38,210
At least 40% of those units are going to be attached to townhome product, or similar plaques, whatever, but some kind of attached product.

1427
01:52:38,670 --> 01:52:45,770
And that no more than 60% of the units in that area would be detached, single family house style units.

1428
01:52:45,770 --> 01:52:47,470
So those are the three things this amendment does.

1429
01:52:47,590 --> 01:52:49,610
I would ask colleagues to support and have to answer any questions.

1430
01:52:50,390 --> 01:52:50,470
Right.

1431
01:52:51,250 --> 01:52:52,310
There is a motion to amend.

1432
01:52:52,530 --> 01:52:53,570
It was properly seconded.

1433
01:52:53,590 --> 01:52:56,450
And you have heard a description of the amendment by the sponsor.

1434
01:52:57,030 --> 01:52:58,830
Is there any discussion on the motion to amend?

1435
01:52:59,990 --> 01:53:02,310
Seeing none on favor of the amendment, please say aye.

1436
01:53:02,770 --> 01:53:04,550
Any voting, no, or abstaining.

1437
01:53:05,270 --> 01:53:06,050
All right.

1438
01:53:06,210 --> 01:53:08,730
Mr. Parker, at this time with the amendment on the bill,

1439
01:53:08,930 --> 01:53:12,570
if you would like to renew your motion to approve 1403

1440
01:53:12,570 --> 01:53:21,010
as amended along with approval of 1404, which is the companion bill to 1403, that requires

1441
01:53:21,010 --> 01:53:24,910

1442
01:53:25,210 --> 01:53:25,970
Thank you, Vice Mayor, so moved.

1443
01:53:26,350 --> 01:53:26,650
All right.

1444
01:53:27,410 --> 01:53:27,910
Probably moved in second.

1445
01:53:28,110 --> 01:53:29,010
Is there any discussion?

1446
01:53:30,690 --> 01:53:32,550
Seeing none on favor, please say aye.

1447
01:53:33,510 --> 01:53:35,410
Any voting, no, or abstaining?

1448
01:53:36,190 --> 01:53:36,450
All right.

1449
01:53:37,130 --> 01:53:41,770
You have passed these ordinances as amended on their third and final reading.

1450
01:53:43,910 --> 01:53:53,290
Next, our agenda items 73 and 74, they are companions to each other.

1451
01:53:53,870 --> 01:54:07,910
Agenda item 73 sponsors Lee is our sponsor Lee is an ordnance BL-2026-1406 to amend Title 17 of the Metro Code of Laws

1452

1455
01:54:29,710 --> 01:54:38,910

1457
01:54:42,590 --> 01:54:46,870
in 1406. Councilmember Lee, you're recognized, ma'am.

1458
01:54:47,090 --> 01:54:49,850
If I'm permitted, I would like to move both of these together.

1459
01:54:50,110 --> 01:54:50,470
Yes, ma'am.

1460
01:54:50,870 --> 01:54:54,750
I would like to move both of these together with a brief comment.

1461
01:54:55,110 --> 01:54:55,330
Okay.

1462
01:54:55,330 --> 01:55:01,090
there's a motion to prove 14.06 and 14.07. It's properly seconded. Go ahead, please, ma'am.

1463
01:55:01,490 --> 01:55:05,290
Yes. I hope you all paid attention. One of the builders was in the public.

1464
01:55:05,650 --> 01:55:08,370
I'm sorry. We needed your committee reports, ma'am. I'm Paul Jazz.

1465
01:55:08,730 --> 01:55:13,030
Sorry. Come in. Paul, please. Thank you, Chair Horton. I fell left out.

1466
01:55:13,630 --> 01:55:17,750
I'm going to recommend approval of both companion bells and favors here again, sir, and I voting.

1467
01:55:18,110 --> 01:55:22,350
Okay, thank you for the report. Typically, we get that before we make the motion, but we're just

1468
01:55:22,350 --> 01:55:24,290
on a roll on ahead, go ahead then.

1469
01:55:24,630 --> 01:55:25,090
Thank you.

1470
01:55:25,150 --> 01:55:29,210
One of the builders of this spoken the public comment, and I hope that you heard

1471
01:55:29,210 --> 01:55:35,070
the things that he was, his company was helping, was volunteering to help with the community.

1472
01:55:35,730 --> 01:55:37,270
We have had several meetings.

1473
01:55:38,390 --> 01:55:39,850
I don't want to say several meetings.

1474
01:55:39,930 --> 01:55:44,520
I want to say a lot of meetings on this type of property, and he is still open to

1475
01:55:44,950 --> 01:55:49,770
and discussing with some of the residents that had some problems with the buildings.

1476
01:55:49,770 --> 01:55:54,950
some of the things that they could do for their property to help things go smoothly.

1477
01:55:56,490 --> 01:56:06,730
They have been very open to doing things and have also been open to seeing what they can do to help improve the whole community.

1478
01:56:07,550 --> 01:56:16,270
And so I would like to ask please for your commitment and approval for this and I remove my motion.

1479
01:56:17,530 --> 01:56:22,670
Okay, there is a motion to approve 1406 and 1407.

1480
01:56:23,290 --> 01:56:26,650
It was properly seconded in a consolidated motion.

1481
01:56:27,170 --> 01:56:31,730
Is there any discussion on these bills, companion bills?

1482
01:56:32,670 --> 01:56:35,030
Seeing none, all in favor, please say aye.

1483
01:56:35,510 --> 01:56:38,410
Any voting no, any abstaining.

1484
01:56:39,270 --> 01:56:42,370
Does the person voting no, perhaps want to abstain instead?

1485
01:56:42,490 --> 01:56:43,770
So we don't have to go on the boards.

1486
01:56:43,770 --> 01:56:53,150
All right, with that, Mr. Clark, because these are on their third and final reading, and we have a no vote, we do have to go on the boards.

1487
01:56:54,010 --> 01:56:55,850
You would please load the vote, Mr. Clark.

1488
01:57:32,170 --> 01:57:33,810
Mr. Cooper, are you seeking to vote, sir?

1489
01:57:36,090 --> 01:57:37,930
All those are in, Mr. Clark, please show the vote.

1490
01:57:39,750 --> 01:57:48,410
Okay, these bills have passed. They're third and final reading with 33 votes in favor, one vote against and one abstention. All right.

1491
01:57:49,270 --> 01:57:59,910
Next are agenda items 75 and 76. They are companions to each other. Again, sponsors Lee and

1492
01:57:59,910 --> 01:58:10,490
Hill. Agenda item 75 is ordnance BL2026-1411. This is an ordnance to mentality 17 of the

1493
01:58:10,490 --> 01:58:15,360
Metro Code of Laws, the zoning ordnance of the Metro government. By changing from AR2A to

1494
01:58:15,360 --> 01:58:21,880

1495
01:58:21,880 --> 01:58:29,020
Boulevard and Twin Oaks Lane. This is 4.97 acres to permit a mixed use development. Council

1496
01:58:29,020 --> 01:58:35,600
member, Lee, sing that you have an amendment for 14, 11. After you get your committee report,

1497
01:58:35,680 --> 01:58:41,100
we can get the report on both, but I'll need you just to move 14, 11 for purposes of amendment

1498
01:58:41,100 --> 01:58:42,960
and then we can re-consolidate them.

1499
01:58:43,900 --> 01:58:44,340
Go ahead, ma'am.

1500
01:58:44,340 --> 01:58:44,940
You're recognized.

1501
01:58:45,260 --> 01:58:47,660
I would like to request committee reports, please.

1502
01:58:48,080 --> 01:58:50,460
For the report of the planning and zoning committee chair.

1503
01:58:50,460 --> 01:58:51,580
Horton, you're recognized sir.

1504
01:58:51,760 --> 01:58:52,780
I will you recommend it to approval.

1505
01:58:53,020 --> 01:58:54,440
Eight in favors here against here and I'm voting.

1506
01:58:56,360 --> 01:58:57,000
All right.

1507
01:58:57,620 --> 01:58:58,940
It's back to you.

1508
01:58:59,440 --> 01:59:01,400
Miss Lee for a motion on 1411.

1509
01:59:01,620 --> 01:59:02,300
First, please, ma'am.

1510
01:59:02,360 --> 01:59:06,760
I would like to request to move this for the purposes of adding an amendment.

1511
01:59:07,320 --> 01:59:07,560
Okay.

1512
01:59:07,720 --> 01:59:08,420
Is there a second?

1513
01:59:09,600 --> 01:59:09,900
All right.

1514
01:59:09,900 --> 01:59:13,140
The bill is before us, and now you can raise your amendment, Ms. Lee?

1515
01:59:13,680 --> 01:59:18,960
I would like to move my amendment on this with a, I guess, a slight comment.

1516
01:59:19,220 --> 01:59:21,020
All right, is there a second to the motion to amend?

1517
01:59:21,880 --> 01:59:23,460
All right, probably a second to go ahead, man.

1518
01:59:24,460 --> 01:59:30,020
I would like to ask for your, for your support and approving this.

1519
01:59:30,320 --> 01:59:36,060
The amendment has to do with some items that came out in our community meeting.

1520
01:59:36,120 --> 01:59:38,140
We have had a community meeting with this.

1521
01:59:38,140 --> 01:59:53,900
We also had one actually last night and we had TDOT and water there also meeting with some community members to talk about how different things could be done to help in the community and help with this particular project.

1522
01:59:54,920 --> 01:59:59,980
TDOT has been very open and committed to continue to help with us.

1523
02:00:00,000 --> 02:00:21,200
So on this and the developers of this also continue to remain open and listen to constituents and work with them to try to get things done, they likewise have also promised to do some things in some yards or some private property around to try to make things a little better.

1524
02:00:21,200 --> 02:00:29,540
So I would like to ask for your approval of this and Madam Chair, since this had an amendment,

1525
02:00:30,320 --> 02:00:32,700
we cannot take both of these together now, correct?

1526
02:00:33,280 --> 02:00:42,640
So we're asked for where, if you will move and I approve my amendment going on 2026-1411, please.

1527
02:00:42,740 --> 02:00:43,320
Yes, ma'am.

1528
02:00:43,440 --> 02:00:50,500
So what is before us at present is just a motion to approve of 1411, and their now is a motion

1529
02:00:50,500 --> 02:00:56,260
to amend properly seconded already and you've heard the description of that amendment from

1530
02:00:56,260 --> 02:01:01,600
Ms. Lee. So is there any further discussion specifically on the motion to amend?

1531
02:01:02,360 --> 02:01:08,740
Seeing not on favor the amendment, please say aye. Any voting no or abstaining? All right.

1532
02:01:09,160 --> 02:01:15,180
If this juncture Ms. Lee, I would ask if you seek to renew your motion to approve 1411 as

1533
02:01:15,180 --> 02:01:21,680
amended along with its companion 1412, which requires certain materials to be restricted in the

1534
02:01:21,680 --> 02:01:25,660
construction of buildings of all the addresses in 1411.

1535
02:01:26,760 --> 02:01:30,620
Yes, so I would like to do that, and I won't repeat it again, so you can just say so moved.

1536
02:01:30,900 --> 02:01:30,980
All right.

1537
02:01:31,140 --> 02:01:32,220
Is there a second on that?

1538
02:01:32,880 --> 02:01:33,200
Okay.

1539
02:01:33,580 --> 02:01:41,820
Is there any discussion on the motion to approve 1411 as amended along with its companion 1412?

1540
02:01:41,820 --> 02:01:44,500
Seeing none, all in favor, please say aye.

1541
02:01:44,960 --> 02:01:46,440
Any voting, no?

1542
02:01:46,880 --> 02:01:48,080
Any abstaining?

1543
02:01:49,560 --> 02:01:50,200
Ms. South.

1544
02:01:50,740 --> 02:01:51,540
Are you an abstention?

1545
02:01:51,660 --> 02:01:52,580
Any other abstinions?

1546
02:01:53,140 --> 02:01:54,460
Okay. One abstention.

1547
02:01:55,160 --> 02:01:56,340
This has passed.

1548
02:01:56,340 --> 02:01:59,480
It's a third and final reading as amended.

1549
02:01:59,700 --> 02:02:00,480
Thank you, Madam Chair.

1550
02:02:00,640 --> 02:02:01,740
Thank you, Ms. Lee.

1551
02:02:04,460 --> 02:02:06,800
Next is agenda item 77.

1552
02:02:07,780 --> 02:02:11,960
This is ordinance BL-2026-1416.

1553
02:02:11,960 --> 02:02:17,580
sponsor web. This is an ordnance to men title 17 of the Metro Code of Laws, the zoning ordinance

1554
02:02:17,580 --> 02:02:22,760

1555
02:02:22,760 --> 02:02:28,820

All right.

1561
02:02:48,300 --> 02:02:49,060
Thank you, Chair Horton.

1562
02:02:49,260 --> 02:02:50,020
It's back to you.

1563
02:02:50,260 --> 02:02:52,520
Ms. Webb for a motion to get this bill before us.

1564
02:02:52,780 --> 02:02:55,100
I would like to make for approval just for the small comment.

1565
02:02:55,400 --> 02:02:55,540
Okay.

1566
02:02:55,640 --> 02:02:56,440
Is there a second?

1567
02:02:56,860 --> 02:02:57,920
Go ahead, ma'am.

As council members, we are elected to work with our distinguished on what's best for our

1569
02:03:02,120 --> 02:03:02,540
neighborhoods.

1570
02:03:03,200 --> 02:03:04,960
This shouldn't be controversial.

1571
02:03:05,460 --> 02:03:06,180
This is simple.

1572
02:03:06,260 --> 02:03:07,320
Context will overlay.

1573
02:03:07,320 --> 02:03:10,720
And I stated before, contextual overlay does not affect density.

1574
02:03:11,460 --> 02:03:15,460
I'm asking my colleagues to help me do what is supported by my community as the best

1575
02:03:15,460 --> 02:03:21,540
option for us to protect a wonderful, charmed, and affordable housing area in my district.

1576
02:03:21,940 --> 02:03:23,140
Thank you.

1577
02:03:23,500 --> 02:03:23,840

There is a motion to approve.

1579
02:03:26,220 --> 02:03:27,660
It's been properly seconded.

1580
02:03:27,980 --> 02:03:31,180
Is there any discussion on this ordinance?

1581
02:03:32,220 --> 02:03:32,940
Okay.

1582
02:03:35,580 --> 02:03:42,240
As this is a disapproved bill by the Planning Commission, it requires 27 votes and a

1583
02:03:42,240 --> 02:03:50,700
roll call by rule. So seeing no additional debate or discussion, Mr. Clerk, I would ask that

02:05:01,560 --> 02:05:03,880
I'd like to move for approval with the same speech.

1597
02:05:04,380 --> 02:05:07,260
Okay. Okay. First, we need to get the report.

1598
02:05:07,500 --> 02:05:12,040
We need to first get the report of the planning and zoning committee, Chair Horton,

So by rule, on its third and final votes, it

1609

1610

Okay, thank you Ms. Gad for your willingness there. No worries. It's all good.

1621
02:07:15,070 --> 02:07:18,710
Ms. Vow, I have read this into the record and it's now time to ask for your committee reports.

1622
02:07:19,090 --> 02:07:22,830
Thank you, committee reports, please. Chair Horton for the report of the planning and zoning committee service.

02:07:26,390 --> 02:07:27,190

1625
02:07:27,850 --> 02:07:31,030
With that committee report, and it's back to you, Ms. Vow, for a motion to get the bill before

1626
02:07:31,030 --> 02:07:31,470

1627
02:07:31,610 --> 02:07:33,210
Thank you, move to approve with the brief comment.

02:07:35,390 --> 02:07:35,850
I heard it.

1630
02:07:35,870 --> 02:07:36,690
Motion to approve.

1631
02:07:37,190 --> 02:07:37,610
Properly second.

1632
02:07:37,730 --> 02:07:38,330
Go ahead, man.

1633
02:07:38,650 --> 02:07:39,550
Thank you so much, Vice Mayor.

1634
02:07:39,730 --> 02:07:44,930
I just want to make a comment on this specific rezoning, because it's been consistent with

1635
02:07:44,930 --> 02:07:49,970
this surrounding land use pattern in established policies, the properties surrounded by commercial

1636
02:07:49,970 --> 02:07:55,830
own parcels, making this a logical and compatible transition rather than isolated change.

1637
02:07:56,830 --> 02:08:01,710
I know we've had conversations with my constituents and I let them know that I would comment

1638
02:08:01,710 --> 02:08:07,370
on this that I also support moving forward with the assurance that this decision is made,

1639
02:08:07,530 --> 02:08:12,990
you know, that's not being viewed as a slippery slope, but you know that each rezoning

1640
02:08:12,990 --> 02:08:19,550
is always evaluated on its own merits and the current in context and consistency with its

1641
02:08:19,550 --> 02:08:21,890
So I just want to put that into the record.

1642
02:08:22,110 --> 02:08:23,770
Thank you so much.

1643
02:08:24,390 --> 02:08:25,250
Appreciate that, Miss Bob.

1644
02:08:26,070 --> 02:08:26,470
All right.

1645
02:08:26,850 --> 02:08:33,010
Is there any further discussion on the motion to approve this ordinance on its third and final reading?

1646
02:08:34,330 --> 02:08:35,950
Seeing none, all in favor, please say aye.

1647
02:08:36,550 --> 02:08:37,830
Anybody know we're abstaining?

1648
02:08:38,590 --> 02:08:38,990
All right.

1649
02:08:39,310 --> 02:08:41,430
This bill has passed its third and final reading.

1650
02:08:43,030 --> 02:08:46,830

02:08:54,590 --> 02:08:59,350
The first among those is 1479.

1653
02:08:59,870 --> 02:09:03,250
This is an ordinance to men title 17 of the Metro Code of Laws

1654
02:09:03,250 --> 02:09:04,790
is zoning ordinance to the Metro government,

1658
02:09:24,790 --> 02:09:32,850

1659
02:09:32,850 --> 02:09:41,430
on 14.79. So if that is something that you want to offer at this time, and when you

1660
02:09:41,430 --> 02:09:45,970
request your committee reports, you would need to move 14.79 separately for purposes

1661
02:09:45,970 --> 02:09:50,990
of amendment. If that is your intent. Go ahead, Ms. Hancock, you're recognized. Commitory

1662
02:09:50,990 --> 02:09:56,490
reports on 14.79, please. Okay, and we can go ahead and do 14.80 at the same time to your

1663
02:09:56,490 --> 02:10:12,410
Thank you Vice Mayor for 1479, PNZ recommended approval of the amendment eight in favor zero against zero and I'm voting as the of the bill as amended eight in favor zero against zero and I'm voting and if the companion bill 1480 we recommended approval eight in favor zero against zero and I'm voting.

02:10:12,830 --> 02:10:14,390
Okay, it's back to you.

1665
02:10:14,510 --> 02:10:15,870
Ms. Hancock for a motion.

1666
02:10:16,890 --> 02:10:19,850
I'd like to move the amendment with a brief comment.

1667
02:10:20,170 --> 02:10:22,790
We need to move 1479 first to get before us.

1668
02:10:22,790 --> 02:10:25,510
of 1479 first to get it before us, please.

1669
02:10:25,850 --> 02:10:27,510
Okay, is there second on 1479?

1670
02:10:28,350 --> 02:10:28,550
Okay.

1671
02:10:28,930 --> 02:10:29,610
You still have the floor?

1672
02:10:29,730 --> 02:10:30,790
You can make the motion to amend.

1673
02:10:31,170 --> 02:10:34,330
I'd like to amend with another amendment.

1674
02:10:34,630 --> 02:10:40,130
We did an amendment at the previous reading, but another amendment today can we move that and have a brief comment?

1675
02:10:40,690 --> 02:10:41,510
You absolutely may.

1676
02:10:41,650 --> 02:10:42,550
There's a motion to amend.

1677
02:10:42,590 --> 02:10:44,090
Is it seconded?

1678
02:10:44,250 --> 02:10:44,830
Go ahead, ma'am.

1679
02:10:45,050 --> 02:10:50,990
So this amendment addresses some of the comments that we heard at public hearing last reading where

1680
02:10:50,990 --> 02:10:57,730
It's kind of a drastic change from the current neighborhood, so we made a more gradual change on the front facing lots with the heights

1681
02:10:57,730 --> 02:11:02,410
We also saved a 20-foot buffer of the

1682
02:11:02,870 --> 02:11:07,290
large established trees on the back or north side and

1683
02:11:07,290 --> 02:11:15,050
Had an environmental survey to see if we can establish if there are any of the state in the industry, besides how many there's a mouse and there's a

1684
02:11:15,050 --> 02:11:19,930
Loft and I'd like to move for approval. Okay. There is a motion to amend

1685
02:11:19,930 --> 02:11:25,630
It is properly seconded and you've heard a description of the amendment from Sponsor Hancock.

1686
02:11:25,850 --> 02:11:29,270
Is there any discussion on the motion to amend or Salamander?

1687
02:11:30,770 --> 02:11:30,830
Okay.

1688
02:11:31,190 --> 02:11:33,150
All in favor of the amendment, please say aye.

1689
02:11:33,590 --> 02:11:34,750
Any voting, no, we're abstaining.

1690
02:11:36,510 --> 02:11:44,450
At this time, do you wish to renew your motion to approve as amended and add 1480 the companion

1691
02:11:44,450 --> 02:11:45,350
as time?

1692
02:11:45,350 --> 02:11:53,030
I'd like to move 1479 as amended as amended and 1480 at the same time for approval with another very brief

1693
02:11:53,030 --> 02:11:53,450
comment.

1694
02:11:54,510 --> 02:11:55,950
Is there a second on that motion?

1695
02:11:56,850 --> 02:11:57,110
Okay.

1696
02:11:57,430 --> 02:11:58,030
Go ahead, Ms. Hancock.

1697
02:11:58,110 --> 02:12:02,170
I just wanted to emphasize that we were able to get all of the suggestions in and still

1698
02:12:02,170 --> 02:12:08,030
keep the proposed number of 57 new homes for this particular community made for approval.

1699
02:12:08,670 --> 02:12:08,850
All right.

1700
02:12:08,850 --> 02:12:23,030
There is a motion to approve 1479 as amended in a consolidated motion with its companion 1480 which requires certain materials to be restricted in the construction of buildings at the addresses in 1479.

1701
02:12:23,690 --> 02:12:26,150
It's properly seconded. Is there any further discussion?

1702
02:12:27,230 --> 02:12:29,170
Seeing none. All in favor, please say aye.

1703
02:12:29,770 --> 02:12:35,450
Any voting, no or abstaining. Okay. These bills have passed their third and final reading.

1704
02:12:35,450 --> 02:12:41,570
And that concludes our agenda for this evening is your motion to adjourn.

1705
02:12:42,690 --> 02:12:44,150
We are adjourned.

1706
02:12:57,940 --> 02:13:00,840
This has been a surface of the Metro Nashville network.

1707
02:13:01,220 --> 02:13:09,280
