267
00:45:46,707 --> 00:45:50,147
the meeting began with updates from the director of public works Crystal Lewis.

268
00:45:51,507 --> 00:45:54,787
Several resolutions were approved to appear on the August 19

269
00:45:55,587 --> 00:45:57,907
Council agenda including amendments to the

270
00:45:58,547 --> 00:46:01,667
crda intergovernmental Grant for

271
00:46:02,067 --> 00:46:04,947
street lighting and the rejection of an

272
00:46:05,187 --> 00:46:08,547
unsustainable 1.4 million dollar bid for

273
00:46:08,787 --> 00:46:09,747
pump system controls.

274
00:46:11,427 --> 00:46:14,867
We had a very good conversation about pump maintenance

275
00:46:11,427 --> 00:46:14,867
We had a very good conversation about pump maintenance

276
00:46:15,427 --> 00:46:18,787
I thought it was worth sharing with the group out here if you think about it

277
00:46:20,147 --> 00:46:23,187
that piece of flood mitigation equipment is relatively new

278
00:46:24,227 --> 00:46:27,107
for barrier island towns and to date the county

279
00:46:24,227 --> 00:46:27,107
for barrier island towns and to date the county

280
00:46:27,507 --> 00:46:30,707
utility Authority is kind of taking the lead in terms of being a shared service

281
00:46:31,987 --> 00:46:35,347
but in our case given the magnitude of what we have

282
00:46:36,467 --> 00:46:39,587
of we're looking first for private option which is very expensive

283
00:46:36,467 --> 00:46:39,587
of we're looking first for private option which is very expensive

284
00:46:41,027 --> 00:46:44,467
and it really begs the question what happens when we get more pumps

285
00:46:44,547 --> 00:46:47,747
that are needed to deal with flooding who's going to maintain it so there's

286
00:46:48,627 --> 00:46:51,827
at least from my opinion an opportunity to look at a future Authority

287
00:46:48,627 --> 00:46:51,827
at least from my opinion an opportunity to look at a future Authority

288
00:46:52,227 --> 00:46:55,667
to deal with this not only for Atlantic City, but for other towns that are always

289
00:46:56,067 --> 00:46:59,347
increasing the number of pumps that they have. It's not enough to

290
00:46:59,667 --> 00:47:00,787
buy them, they need to be maintained.

291
00:47:03,507 --> 00:47:06,787
In old business in the committee we reviewed progress of multiple

292
00:47:06,867 --> 00:47:10,307

Montgomery Avenues that need adjustment to ensure visibility

296
00:47:17,587 --> 00:47:20,947
in both traffic directions. Updates were provided on

297
00:47:21,107 --> 00:47:23,907

regarding beach handicap mats including in front of

was discussed is a long one and I apologize but there's another

326
00:48:43,907 --> 00:48:44,627
important point here

327
00:48:46,387 --> 00:48:49,107
depoling site at Our Lady Star of the Sea Memorial Hall

328
00:48:49,987 --> 00:48:53,427
is home to the most polling locations in the entire city and

329
00:48:53,507 --> 00:48:56,787
does not have current ADA access so that issue was

330
00:48:56,947 --> 00:49:00,147
raised looking for opportunities to repair the sidewalk and work on

331
00:49:00,227 --> 00:49:03,667
that, as well as how to deal with leftover debris such

332
00:49:00,227 --> 00:49:03,667
that, as well as how to deal with leftover debris such

333
00:49:03,747 --> 00:49:06,467
as broken glass at monuments after

334
00:49:06,547 --> 00:49:09,267

a tremendous job. But I really want to point out

349
00:49:58,307 --> 00:50:01,267
to director Lewis in public works. Her team

00:50:02,227 --> 00:50:05,507
is tremendous we have a great in-house staff the public will not

351
00:50:05,747 --> 00:50:07,987
see the back here because that's where we hold out.

352
00:50:09,587 --> 00:50:12,947
Personal business but when I came here 16 years ago it was

353
00:50:13,027 --> 00:50:13,187
a mess.

354
00:50:15,587 --> 00:50:18,227
Public Works. Do Crystal

355
00:50:19,107 --> 00:50:22,467
director is tremendous back then. It is beautiful

356
00:50:23,667 --> 00:50:23,987
we haven't had

357
00:50:25,507 --> 00:50:28,947
a conference room like that to sit down and do. The people's

358
00:50:25,507 --> 00:50:28,947
a conference room like that to sit down and do. The people's

359
00:50:28,947 --> 00:50:29,027
business

360
00:50:30,627 --> 00:50:33,587
without. Hitting this or hitting that so I really want to give you

361
00:50:34,307 --> 00:50:37,427
cadooms. Because we have a great in-house staff

362
00:50:37,907 --> 00:50:40,867
they did all the carpentry they did electricians they did everything

363
00:50:37,907 --> 00:50:40,867
they did all the carpentry they did electricians they did everything

364
00:50:41,987 --> 00:50:45,267
and as I said you will not get a chance to see it but we will

365
00:50:46,067 --> 00:50:48,867
so we're telling we're telling you about it so that's

366
00:50:49,507 --> 00:50:52,947
my report thank you Mr. President if I could

367
00:50:49,507 --> 00:50:52,947
my report thank you Mr. President if I could

368
00:50:53,027 --> 00:50:56,467
add to that on another subject but the Department of Public Works

369
00:50:57,267 --> 00:51:00,467
of we had some concerns about Brown's part

370
00:51:00,947 --> 00:51:01,747
with regard to the.

371
00:51:03,667 --> 00:51:04,067
Sight lines.

372
00:51:07,267 --> 00:51:10,707
And the Department of Public Works did an excellent job of

373
00:51:11,107 --> 00:51:13,907
improving the sight lines cutting down on the shrubbery

374
00:51:15,347 --> 00:51:18,787
so we could have heightened heighten sense of security

375
00:51:19,027 --> 00:51:22,467
for our youngsters who go there to play in Browns Park and I

376
00:51:22,467 --> 00:51:25,907

385
00:51:54,147 --> 00:51:57,507
the whole summer and his name is Jaden. He

386
00:51:57,587 --> 00:52:01,027
came here a few years ago and he was an Eagle

387
00:52:01,027 --> 00:52:02,707
Scout which is tremendous.

388
00:52:01,027 --> 00:52:02,707
Scout which is tremendous.

389
00:52:04,787 --> 00:52:07,267
Councilman shabazz bought him on this year as an aide

390
00:52:08,307 --> 00:52:11,667
and he's done a tremendous job so before we start the meeting we're going to bring him

with us come on up Jaden.

394
00:52:20,067 --> 00:52:23,427
You can't say that we don't have productive youth in

Atlantic City he's a tremendous person he's a

396

00:52:36,547 --> 00:52:38,867
so once a week so please.

402
00:52:40,867 --> 00:52:44,307
We want to honor young people we definitely want to honor young people sometimes

403
00:52:44,307 --> 00:52:45,987
they get a bad rap you know.

404
00:52:52,307 --> 00:52:53,507
All right look at the camera y'all

405
00:52:55,347 --> 00:52:55,427
perfect.

406
00:53:01,507 --> 00:53:01,587
Okay

the young man yeah good young man.

410
00:53:18,467 --> 00:53:19,827
Especially if I can say a couple words about

411
00:53:24,147 --> 00:53:27,587
you just take over go ahead go ahead make sure we want to lift up young people

412

413
00:53:29,267 --> 00:53:32,627
normally repeat no I wanted to say

414
00:53:32,707 --> 00:53:35,267
this because I think it needs to be said and I know you agree with me.

415
00:53:38,627 --> 00:53:41,827
Normally when you mentor someone you give them

416
00:53:42,067 --> 00:53:44,627
information and his device and exposure

417
00:53:47,107 --> 00:53:50,547
and Jaden Beverly was able to meet the governor to the lieutenant

418
00:53:47,107 --> 00:53:50,547
and Jaden Beverly was able to meet the governor to the lieutenant

419
00:53:50,707 --> 00:53:52,787
governor Attorney General this summer.

420
00:53:54,867 --> 00:53:58,307
But he mentored me because I was able to hear from

421
00:53:58,707 --> 00:54:00,627
a young person who is

422
00:54:01,827 --> 00:54:05,267
focused and concerned about government and to

423
00:54:01,827 --> 00:54:05,267
focused and concerned about government and to

424
00:54:05,267 --> 00:54:08,467
get his insight. And really I thank him

425
00:54:09,587 --> 00:54:12,147
he was a mentor to me this summer and I gained a lot of information

426
00:54:13,027 --> 00:54:16,067
and insight from Jaden. I wanted to say that publicly thank you

427
00:54:13,027 --> 00:54:16,067

And the first person signed up to speak is Diana love.

434

Missing Atlantic City that's my senior Atlanta City thank you

435
00:54:38,067 --> 00:54:40,707
Missing Atlantic City that's my senior Atlanta City thank you

436
00:54:41,587 --> 00:54:45,027
good evening esteemed Atlantic City Council members I've been an

437
00:54:45,107 --> 00:54:47,987
owner at Bella condominiums for nine years and I have been

438
00:54:48,547 --> 00:54:51,507
a jitney customer for at least 25. I am here to

439
00:54:48,547 --> 00:54:51,507
a jitney customer for at least 25. I am here to

440
00:54:51,747 --> 00:54:55,187
respectfully request a reconsideration of ordinance 46

441
00:54:55,827 --> 00:54:59,267
that proposes to eliminate both the jitney stops on Pacific and

442
00:54:59,427 --> 00:55:02,787
Connecticut Avenue. A few weeks ago a Bella board

443
00:54:59,427 --> 00:55:02,787
Connecticut Avenue. A few weeks ago a Bella board

444
00:55:02,867 --> 00:55:06,147
member put a flyer in the building to encourage residents to attend the city

445
00:55:06,227 --> 00:55:09,507
council meeting on July 22 as a united group to

446
00:55:09,907 --> 00:55:13,347
advocate for a jitney stop away from Bella. I was confused and

447
00:55:13,587 --> 00:55:16,547
questioned why this was happening because I take the jitney often

448
00:55:13,587 --> 00:55:16,547
questioned why this was happening because I take the jitney often

449
00:55:17,187 --> 00:55:19,507
and use the stop across the street as many other people do.

450
00:55:21,187 --> 00:55:24,547
I received an email back which I have here stating that they were not trying

451
00:55:25,027 --> 00:55:28,467
to get rid of the jitney stuff across the street. Just the one

452
00:55:25,027 --> 00:55:28,467
to get rid of the jitney stuff across the street. Just the one

453
00:55:28,467 --> 00:55:30,947
in front of the building that was just recent reactivated.

454
00:55:32,307 --> 00:55:35,747
On July 22nd five residents from the Bella attended the city council

455
00:55:35,747 --> 00:55:39,107
meeting to voice their complaints about the newly reactivated Jitney stop

456
00:55:35,747 --> 00:55:39,107
meeting to voice their complaints about the newly reactivated Jitney stop

457
00:55:39,187 --> 00:55:42,627
near the corner of Bella. Soon after that meeting articles came out

458
00:55:43,027 --> 00:55:46,467
titled Atlantic City to cancel Jenny stops near Bella

459
00:55:46,547 --> 00:55:49,907
condos due to resident complaints, which was surprising to hear when that

460
00:55:50,387 --> 00:55:52,947
supposedly was not the intention of the small group who attended the

461
00:55:50,387 --> 00:55:52,947
supposedly was not the intention of the small group who attended the

462
00:55:53,027 --> 00:55:56,307
meeting. The Bella was immediately bashed on social media with

463
00:55:56,547 --> 00:55:59,907
claims of racism and gentrification. The five who

464
00:55:59,987 --> 00:56:03,427
attended the meeting were not authorized to represent the Bella

465
00:55:59,987 --> 00:56:03,427
attended the meeting were not authorized to represent the Bella

466
00:56:03,427 --> 00:56:06,707
collectively. They were individuals who attended as a group to state their

467
00:56:06,707 --> 00:56:09,827
complaints. Most surprisingly absolutely no evidence

468
00:56:10,307 --> 00:56:13,027
was provided to the city council such as video

469
00:56:13,107 --> 00:56:16,467
footage, photos, audio or internal building

470
00:56:13,107 --> 00:56:16,467
footage, photos, audio or internal building

471
00:56:16,707 --> 00:56:19,907
incident reports to support the claims of the five made against the

472
00:56:20,387 --> 00:56:23,827
jitney customers who wait by the building, which then led to the proposal

473
00:56:24,307 --> 00:56:26,227
on July 22 for the elimination of those

474
00:56:26,867 --> 00:56:30,067
stops. Ordinance 46 was proposed without any type of

475
00:56:30,387 --> 00:56:33,667
notice or public hearing so that people who use the active

476
00:56:33,827 --> 00:56:36,627
jitney stop could attend a meeting and voice their opinion about the

477
00:56:37,027 --> 00:56:39,347
longstanding public stop and it potentially being

478
00:56:37,027 --> 00:56:39,347
longstanding public stop and it potentially being

479
00:56:39,507 --> 00:56:42,947
eliminated. No close alternative locations are being offered for

480
00:56:43,427 --> 00:56:46,627
new stops. The decision to eliminate the stop across the street from

481
00:56:46,947 --> 00:56:50,227
Bella will affect literally hundreds of people who will have to walk

482
00:56:50,387 --> 00:56:53,827
further to get to a Jimmy stop than anywhere else in the city, which is

483
00:56:50,387 --> 00:56:53,827
further to get to a Jimmy stop than anywhere else in the city, which is

484
00:56:53,907 --> 00:56:57,107
a hardship for seniors like myself and the workers

485
00:56:57,427 --> 00:57:00,627
in the great city of Atlantic City, especially in inclement

486
00:57:00,627 --> 00:57:02,867
weather. It is interesting that since July

487
00:57:00,627 --> 00:57:02,867
weather. It is interesting that since July

488
00:57:03,267 --> 00:57:06,707
22nd, there has been no reported incidents that I know that

489
00:57:07,107 --> 00:57:10,067
have occurred when Jitney Riders near the Bella. I have photos

490
00:57:10,547 --> 00:57:13,987
that I've taken of people just randomly waiting for the Jitney in the

491
00:57:13,987 --> 00:57:17,267
past few months or the past month. I'm sorry on the corner

492
00:57:13,987 --> 00:57:17,267
past few months or the past month. I'm sorry on the corner

493
00:57:18,067 --> 00:57:21,267
minding their own business or looking at their phones. I would like to ask for

494
00:57:21,827 --> 00:57:24,707
reconsideration of ordinance 46 to eliminate

495
00:57:25,347 --> 00:57:28,707
both stops at the corner of Pacific and Connecticut and to please consider

496
00:57:25,347 --> 00:57:28,707
both stops at the corner of Pacific and Connecticut and to please consider

497
00:57:29,027 --> 00:57:32,147
keeping the one across the street that is on an empty lot

498
00:57:32,867 --> 00:57:36,307
that is not on Bella property and has been active for many years

499
00:57:36,707 --> 00:57:39,827
with no complaints and serves the public. Thank you very much for your time

500
00:57:36,707 --> 00:57:39,827
with no complaints and serves the public. Thank you very much for your time

501
00:57:40,387 --> 00:57:43,827
and consideration. As you go back to your seat. I'm going to say a few

502
00:57:43,987 --> 00:57:47,347
things to you. So that you will understand why

503
00:57:47,427 --> 00:57:50,707
that was put out. Okay. Okay. As you go back to your seat.

504
00:57:47,427 --> 00:57:50,707
that was put out. Okay. Okay. As you go back to your seat.

505
00:57:52,627 --> 00:57:53,987
You know, I'm, I'm a fair individual.

506
00:57:55,667 --> 00:57:58,867
And when this was brought to my attention, I always reach out to

507
00:57:59,107 --> 00:58:02,547
both parties. I reached out to

508
00:58:02,947 --> 00:58:05,987
the jitney Association, which I thought I had a great relationship

509
00:58:06,387 --> 00:58:09,747
with, and I reached out to the Bella to find out

510
00:58:10,467 --> 00:58:12,147
what could we do to compromise this.

511
00:58:15,027 --> 00:58:15,507
The Bella showed up.

512
00:58:17,187 --> 00:58:20,547
The jitney Association hasn't called since and never

513
00:58:20,627 --> 00:58:23,907
called us. We don't go back and forth. You either call and we

514
00:58:24,067 --> 00:58:27,347
sit down and discuss this or you feel as though you don't need

515
00:58:24,067 --> 00:58:27,347
sit down and discuss this or you feel as though you don't need

516
00:58:27,747 --> 00:58:30,867
to call. That's the association's

517
00:58:30,867 --> 00:58:33,827
prerogative, not mine. But I'm a fair guy.

518
00:58:35,267 --> 00:58:37,827
So that's my ordinance. And I'm not going to reconsider it.

519
00:58:39,587 --> 00:58:42,947
But this is a council that's independent and they do independent thinking.

520
00:58:44,227 --> 00:58:46,307
When we vote tonight. They will vote their

521
00:58:46,707 --> 00:58:50,067
conscience. But I did what I needed to do. I did what was

522
00:58:50,227 --> 00:58:53,107
right. Nothing's fair. But what was right? To bring

523
00:58:50,227 --> 00:58:53,107
right. Nothing's fair. But what was right? To bring

524
00:58:53,667 --> 00:58:57,107
both parties together. Anybody know me? I've been up

525
00:58:57,187 --> 00:59:00,547
here a long time, and I've been doing this job in a long time. They

526
00:59:00,627 --> 00:59:04,067
know I'm fair. And that was the fair thing to do, to call both parties together.

527
00:59:00,627 --> 00:59:04,067
know I'm fair. And that was the fair thing to do, to call both parties together.

528
00:59:04,867 --> 00:59:07,667
But when you blow me off, that means you're not interested.

529
00:59:09,027 --> 00:59:11,347
So I don't want you to think this was done haplessly.

530
00:59:13,267 --> 00:59:16,707
Or some out of the way thinking and I live right across

531
00:59:13,267 --> 00:59:16,707
Or some out of the way thinking and I live right across

532
00:59:16,947 --> 00:59:19,667
the street from here. I live in nobi.

533
00:59:21,347 --> 00:59:24,547
So when I looked at the distance and to further

534
00:59:24,707 --> 00:59:27,427
investigate, I called ocean myself.

535
00:59:24,707 --> 00:59:27,427
investigate, I called ocean myself.

536
00:59:28,467 --> 00:59:31,267
And asked them, why did they stop the jitneys for going in.

537
00:59:31,587 --> 00:59:32,947
There? Because it wasn't a problem.

538
00:59:35,187 --> 00:59:37,907
But they said, if you ever come down here on a Saturday night and you have

539
00:59:38,307 --> 00:59:40,627
jitneys, you have cabs, you have

540
00:59:38,307 --> 00:59:40,627
jitneys, you have cabs, you have

541
00:59:41,267 --> 00:59:44,707
cars, you have valet. We had to stop it. So I

542
00:59:44,867 --> 00:59:47,747
know I did a thorough investigation before I put this ordinance

543
00:59:47,827 --> 00:59:51,027
up. So we're going to vote on it tonight because I'm not going to reconsider.

544
00:59:47,827 --> 00:59:51,027
up. So we're going to vote on it tonight because I'm not going to reconsider.

545
00:59:52,067 --> 00:59:55,507
But my counsel is very independent. They will do what they

546
00:59:55,587 --> 00:59:59,027
think is right. Okay. I hope you're satisfied with the answer.

547
01:00:00,307 --> 01:00:03,667
Okay. Is this a discussion? No, it's not a discussion. But if you

548
01:00:00,307 --> 01:00:03,667
Okay. Is this a discussion? No, it's not a discussion. But if you

549
01:00:03,827 --> 01:00:05,587
would like to turn it into one, you can't.

550
01:00:07,267 --> 01:00:07,747
My thoughts was this.

551
01:00:10,147 --> 01:00:13,267
I've done work in that Bella. But

552
01:00:13,747 --> 01:00:16,867
the lady's right to stop across the street was always

553
01:00:13,747 --> 01:00:16,867
the lady's right to stop across the street was always

554
01:00:17,027 --> 01:00:19,267
there. Even when the jitneys went up into

555
01:00:19,587 --> 01:00:22,627
ocean. So I didn't know that one was being

556
01:00:22,787 --> 01:00:25,987
removed. I stated it at the council

557
01:00:26,067 --> 01:00:27,507
meeting both. And I tell you the reason why.

558
01:00:26,067 --> 01:00:27,507
meeting both. And I tell you the reason why.

559
01:00:29,107 --> 01:00:32,547
I said, because if they said they're doing this on this side

560
01:00:32,547 --> 01:00:35,907
of the street, there's a dog park on the other side of the street.

561
01:00:36,467 --> 01:00:39,907
And I said that since there's a problem, we don't

562
01:00:36,467 --> 01:00:39,907
And I said that since there's a problem, we don't

563
01:00:39,987 --> 01:00:43,267
want to create a problem where if it's raining, they said, well, we'll stand

564
01:00:43,347 --> 01:00:46,227
up. We here. Until the rain stops and run across the

565
01:00:46,307 --> 01:00:49,587
street. There, there's a half a block that way for the

566
01:00:49,747 --> 01:00:53,027
catch a jitney and it's a half a block that way. So it's not really our

567
01:00:49,747 --> 01:00:53,027
catch a jitney and it's a half a block that way. So it's not really our

568
01:00:53,107 --> 01:00:56,467
inconvenience. It wasn't like it's 10 blocks to walk. Let's

569
01:00:56,547 --> 01:00:59,987
be realistic here. I lived there. It's only

570
01:01:00,067 --> 01:01:03,107
a half a block. You can go to Rhode Island. I'm not

571
01:01:03,587 --> 01:01:06,867
reconsidering. Not have to discuss it because

572
01:01:07,027 --> 01:01:09,827
I said, please vote your conscience. We're taking

573
01:01:11,587 --> 01:01:14,787
what you just said. You want to discuss it? No, I didn't. I said, you could turn it into

574
01:01:15,027 --> 01:01:18,387
a discussion. And you did. Okay. I asked you to

575
01:01:15,027 --> 01:01:18,387
a discussion. And you did. Okay. I asked you to

576
01:01:18,467 --> 01:01:21,667
vote your conscience, please. Not a problem. Council

577
01:01:21,987 --> 01:01:22,307
president.

578
01:01:26,067 --> 01:01:28,387
The next person to speak is Teresa Nolan.

579
01:01:26,067 --> 01:01:28,387
The next person to speak is Teresa Nolan.

580
01:01:35,507 --> 01:01:38,867
Good evening. My name is Teresa Nolan. I am lifelong resident of

581
01:01:39,027 --> 01:01:42,227
Atlantic City. I graduated from Landing City. I bought my

582
01:01:39,027 --> 01:01:42,227
Atlantic City. I graduated from Landing City. I bought my

583
01:01:42,547 --> 01:01:45,987
home in Lang City and I am a teacher here in Atlantic City, and I wanted

584
01:01:46,147 --> 01:01:49,427
to bring up a topic that I think we are underserving a small

585
01:01:49,587 --> 01:01:52,627
part of our community. We have a lot of

586
01:01:49,587 --> 01:01:52,627
part of our community. We have a lot of

587
01:01:53,347 --> 01:01:56,787
autistic and special needs students in Atlantic City, yet we don't have any

588
01:01:57,107 --> 01:02:00,067
adaptive Sports programs for these kids. We have

589
01:02:00,627 --> 01:02:03,827
field of dreams and app seek in, but some of our parents can't drive

590
01:02:00,627 --> 01:02:03,827
field of dreams and app seek in, but some of our parents can't drive

591
01:02:03,987 --> 01:02:07,427
there. We have special Olympics that host sports

592
01:02:07,427 --> 01:02:10,867
programs and Atlantic or Ocean City. They are now hosting programs

593
01:02:11,267 --> 01:02:14,467
in Stockton. We have beautiful fields here in Atlantic City. We have

594
01:02:14,787 --> 01:02:17,907
a number of schools with beautiful gyms, and I would really encourage

595
01:02:14,787 --> 01:02:17,907
a number of schools with beautiful gyms, and I would really encourage

596
01:02:18,307 --> 01:02:21,747
us to look at some programs where we could start having sports programs for kids

597
01:02:21,987 --> 01:02:25,267
with special needs. We also do not have any adaptive playgrounds

598
01:02:25,587 --> 01:02:28,707
in Atlantic City. You have kids that are medically complex

599
01:02:25,587 --> 01:02:28,707
in Atlantic City. You have kids that are medically complex

600
01:02:29,027 --> 01:02:32,387
with Walkers or wheelchairs and they can't go to a playground. We

601
01:02:32,547 --> 01:02:35,987
have, I believe, roughly around 150 students in Atlantic

602
01:02:35,987 --> 01:02:38,627
City Elementary Schools that are diagnosed with autism.

603
01:02:40,387 --> 01:02:43,667
And we have more of that go to special services yet we don't have a playground or any

604
01:02:43,747 --> 01:02:47,187
activities for them. So I just wanted to bring that to your attention and really

605
01:02:47,347 --> 01:02:50,707
encourage us to kind of find something for our kids to

606
01:02:50,707 --> 01:02:54,147
do. You know, sports are a great way to build skills, to help with

607
01:02:50,707 --> 01:02:54,147
do. You know, sports are a great way to build skills, to help with

608
01:02:54,547 --> 01:02:57,907
fine motor skills that work on transitioning. And it just, we should give

609
01:02:58,147 --> 01:02:59,027
our kids these opportunities.

610
01:03:00,707 --> 01:03:03,987
As you go back to your seat, I'd like to give you a comment. First of all, I'll tell you, father, I

611
01:03:00,707 --> 01:03:03,987
As you go back to your seat, I'd like to give you a comment. First of all, I'll tell you, father, I

612
01:03:04,067 --> 01:03:06,627
said hello. I will. All right. We have

613
01:03:07,667 --> 01:03:10,627
in this city here, anybody knows. Youth.

614
01:03:12,227 --> 01:03:15,267
And seniors, ad and his council

615
01:03:15,747 --> 01:03:19,107
surprise. Wholeheartedly. So I would think that

616
01:03:19,347 --> 01:03:22,147
you would have a conversation with our director.

617
01:03:23,907 --> 01:03:26,227
Director Barnes. And I think that we can come up with

618
01:03:26,307 --> 01:03:29,747
something. But. The BA would

619
01:03:26,307 --> 01:03:29,747
something. But. The BA would

620
01:03:29,907 --> 01:03:33,267
like to say something. It's, it's funny. It's like you were in our

621
01:03:33,347 --> 01:03:35,987
meeting. We just had a meeting about this

622
01:03:36,307 --> 01:03:39,667
topic. Good. The mayor set it up and we

623
01:03:36,307 --> 01:03:39,667
topic. Good. The mayor set it up and we

624
01:03:39,747 --> 01:03:42,547
were looking at the adaptive playground

625
01:03:43,267 --> 01:03:46,467
situation. I know director Barnes probably has all the brochures

626
01:03:46,707 --> 01:03:49,987
and stuff that we were looking at. So we were looking at that. And we also had

627
01:03:50,227 --> 01:03:53,587
a conversation on programming, you know, summer programming

628
01:03:50,227 --> 01:03:53,587
a conversation on programming, you know, summer programming

629
01:03:56,067 --> 01:03:58,467
for kids with disabilities or challenges and so forth.

630
01:03:59,507 --> 01:04:02,787
So we already, we don't want it forward with it. We on it.

631
01:04:02,787 --> 01:04:05,827
Yes. Okay. So we want it. All right. Because we do believe in

632
01:04:02,787 --> 01:04:05,827
Yes. Okay. So we want it. All right. Because we do believe in

633
01:04:06,147 --> 01:04:09,507
youth. All youth. And seniors in between

634
01:04:10,147 --> 01:04:11,267
you and your own. Nah.

635
01:04:16,307 --> 01:04:18,947
You can do. There's no one else signed up to speak

636
01:04:19,907 --> 01:04:20,147
anyone.

637
01:04:28,947 --> 01:04:29,027
Live.

638
01:04:33,827 --> 01:04:34,467
You're on mute. Sir.

639
01:04:37,027 --> 01:04:39,747
No one online. Okay, Paula, thank you. Sir.

640
01:04:37,027 --> 01:04:39,747
No one online. Okay, Paula, thank you. Sir.

641
01:04:41,667 --> 01:04:42,787
Just please take the name for the record.

642
01:04:47,027 --> 01:04:49,747
Good afternoon, Joyce Malone, Atlantic City.

643
01:04:54,307 --> 01:04:57,667
As president of the Atlantic City Advisory Board, I

644
01:04:57,827 --> 01:04:58,787
urge you to support.

645
01:05:01,427 --> 01:05:03,987
The resolution for community policing

646
01:05:01,427 --> 01:05:03,987
The resolution for community policing

647
01:05:05,107 --> 01:05:05,587
555.

648
01:05:10,387 --> 01:05:13,507
Question. Do we have. Any.

649
01:05:15,027 --> 01:05:18,147
Data centers trying to locate in Atlantic City?

650
01:05:15,027 --> 01:05:18,147
Data centers trying to locate in Atlantic City?

651
01:05:20,147 --> 01:05:23,107
I say trying. Because we don't want them here.

652
01:05:24,947 --> 01:05:26,307
They drink up a lot of water.

653
01:05:28,227 --> 01:05:31,667
And use a lot of electric. So we want to take a

654
01:05:31,667 --> 01:05:35,027
look into that. If we don't have them coming here, we don't want

655
01:05:35,427 --> 01:05:38,147
them. Here and we need all our

656
01:05:38,307 --> 01:05:40,867
water. They drink too much. Thank you. Thank you.

657
01:05:38,307 --> 01:05:40,867
water. They drink too much. Thank you. Thank you.

233-43 of the code of Atlantic City

709
01:08:17,987 --> 01:08:18,787
Any comments from the public?

710
01:08:21,907 --> 01:08:23,587
Caller. Carl votes.

711
01:08:25,587 --> 01:08:28,547
Yeah, you could first do

712
01:08:25,587 --> 01:08:28,547
Yeah, you could first do

713
01:08:29,027 --> 01:08:30,307
all over when you shut me down.

714
01:08:37,827 --> 01:08:40,067
That original route before

715
01:08:37,827 --> 01:08:40,067
That original route before

716
01:08:41,987 --> 01:08:45,107
ocean decided not to have him come in. Used to let out

717
01:08:45,507 --> 01:08:48,947
right there on Connecticut and Pacific. On the opposite

718
01:08:49,107 --> 01:08:49,827
side of the street.

719
01:08:51,587 --> 01:08:54,387
Not in front of Bella, but literally across the street.

720
01:08:55,827 --> 01:08:58,947
Why wasn't that explored as an option? If they did it before?

721
01:08:59,747 --> 01:09:03,187
Because the j didn't come to the table. I wanted to come

722
01:09:03,507 --> 01:09:06,307
with a compromise. They didn't come to the table, so I had to make the

723
01:09:06,307 --> 01:09:09,747
decision. I made that decision. And you have that right to vote on it.

724
01:09:10,387 --> 01:09:13,427
I'm not reconsidering. And I understand your feeling.

725
01:09:19,107 --> 01:09:19,827
I just have one statement.

726
01:09:22,467 --> 01:09:25,747
The Jitney is not. Don't vote for counsel. The people of

727
01:09:25,747 --> 01:09:28,467
Atlantic City. The. I hate the fact that they did that to you. That's very

728
01:09:25,747 --> 01:09:28,467
Atlantic City. The. I hate the fact that they did that to you. That's very

729
01:09:28,547 --> 01:09:31,747
disrespectful. But in the respect of the people of Atlantic City who may have

730
01:09:32,227 --> 01:09:35,587
an issue with that, just want to say that we

731
01:09:35,827 --> 01:09:39,107
can't put it on the Jenny's. We got. We got to carry this out. So

732
01:09:39,987 --> 01:09:43,427
I agree with vote out content because the fact that the J didn't

733
01:09:43,587 --> 01:09:46,947
come, I don't think that's an issue. Because, again, Jenny didn't

734
01:09:47,027 --> 01:09:50,227
put us in office. That's all. But again, did we

735
01:09:53,747 --> 01:09:56,547
removing it? Do we have the power to put them in place?

736
01:09:59,427 --> 01:10:02,787
Do we, do we have, we move them in

737
01:10:03,347 --> 01:10:05,747
and we. Give the jitneys the routes that they take.

738
01:10:03,347 --> 01:10:05,747
and we. Give the jitneys the routes that they take.

739
01:10:06,867 --> 01:10:10,307
That's councils proactive. Correct. But it's not even in consideration

740
01:10:10,707 --> 01:10:14,067
to move it. Not even 30 feet across

741
01:10:14,387 --> 01:10:14,547
the street.

742
01:10:16,867 --> 01:10:19,827
Well, we go down. We have to see what we're trying to do. I. M

743
01:10:22,067 --> 01:10:24,547
discussion vote. Just do it when it comes around. Yes.

744
01:10:25,747 --> 01:10:26,707
This person, I make a suggestion.

745
01:10:28,227 --> 01:10:30,067
I'm sorry. Go ahead.

746
01:10:32,307 --> 01:10:33,987
And there you go. Is this

747
01:10:35,667 --> 01:10:39,107
order in? So I'm just trying to still figure it out. Is this two

748
01:10:39,187 --> 01:10:41,507
different routes in this one

749
01:10:39,187 --> 01:10:41,507
different routes in this one

750
01:10:41,987 --> 01:10:44,147
ordinance? Two different places. There's just one.

751
01:10:46,707 --> 01:10:49,827
There's two stops one here and one across the street. That's

752
01:10:49,907 --> 01:10:52,867
it. This is two stops in one ordinance. Correct.

753
01:10:49,907 --> 01:10:52,867
it. This is two stops in one ordinance. Correct.

754
01:10:54,707 --> 01:10:58,067
It's one stop. There's just two sides on the street. Oh, two different

755
01:10:58,307 --> 01:11:01,587
sides of the street. So it's one stop, two different size. So

756
01:11:01,747 --> 01:11:04,867
it's, it's still like, so I'm still wondering

757
01:11:01,747 --> 01:11:04,867
it's, it's still like, so I'm still wondering

758
01:11:05,267 --> 01:11:08,467
if it was always in front of Bella.

759
01:11:10,067 --> 01:11:12,147
And the people that live in Bella.

760
01:11:14,307 --> 01:11:14,707
Want to keep.

761
01:11:17,747 --> 01:11:20,787
The stop at Bella. I know we had the five people come.

762
01:11:22,307 --> 01:11:25,507
But what was your argument about the five people? You can't bring

763
01:11:26,067 --> 01:11:28,307
her. You can't bring it back. Up here, please

764
01:11:26,067 --> 01:11:28,307
her. You can't bring it back. Up here, please

765
01:11:31,267 --> 01:11:33,587
They didn't want it. But did they. They weren't

766
01:11:33,667 --> 01:11:36,707
authorized. She said, represent. Well, that's my

767
01:11:36,867 --> 01:11:40,067
concern. Okay. That's my concern. That they weren't

768
01:11:36,867 --> 01:11:40,067
concern. Okay. That's my concern. That they weren't

769
01:11:40,147 --> 01:11:43,587
authorized yet. So. Okay. Mr. President, I'd like to

770
01:11:43,667 --> 01:11:47,027
make a suggestion. And you have a reputation for being fair

771
01:11:47,667 --> 01:11:51,027
and reaching out to people. My suggestion would be that

772
01:11:51,427 --> 01:11:54,307
we move this to next month. Allow

773
01:11:51,427 --> 01:11:54,307
we move this to next month. Allow

774
01:11:55,427 --> 01:11:58,627
you a chance to bring the jitneys and the

775
01:11:59,427 --> 01:12:02,627
Bella residents together and see if in September. We would have

776
01:12:03,107 --> 01:12:05,427
the better conclusion. I'll say this.

777
01:12:03,107 --> 01:12:05,427
the better conclusion. I'll say this.

778
01:12:06,547 --> 01:12:09,987
I will not call the jitneys myself. I will put that in your

779
01:12:10,227 --> 01:12:13,267
hands, and I will pull it. Okay? But you do

780
01:12:13,267 --> 01:12:15,267
it. Yes, sir. All right, I'll do it.

781
01:12:17,347 --> 01:12:20,547
So. We'll do it to next month.

782
01:12:20,547 --> 01:12:23,667
Okay. And you handle the meetings. I don't want to hear anything about it.

783
01:12:24,227 --> 01:12:27,507
Okay. For the record ordinance, 46 is a

784
01:12:27,907 --> 01:12:29,187
gerund until September.

785
01:12:31,427 --> 01:12:34,627
We're here to make hard decisions. And sometimes I don't favor who you

786
01:12:35,107 --> 01:12:38,387
want them to favor. And we don't like to compromise. I don't never pull

787
01:12:38,467 --> 01:12:41,667
it, but I'm going to do it this time. That y'all be quest.

788
01:12:38,467 --> 01:12:41,667
it, but I'm going to do it this time. That y'all be quest.

789
01:12:43,507 --> 01:12:46,867
I just have one thing. If the. I did

790
01:12:47,747 --> 01:12:50,787
drive by there and was trying to. I didn't even see any Jitney

791
01:12:50,867 --> 01:12:54,307
signs. And so I don't even know where

792
01:12:50,867 --> 01:12:54,307
signs. And so I don't even know where

793
01:12:54,787 --> 01:12:58,147
the jitney stop is. Actually, but maybe I

794
01:12:58,227 --> 01:13:01,507
just drove by it. You know, it's hard trying to drive and look for

795
01:13:01,747 --> 01:13:05,107
signs at the same time. So I would ask for the. From the

796
01:13:01,747 --> 01:13:05,107
signs at the same time. So I would ask for the. From the

797
01:13:05,107 --> 01:13:08,547
administration if you could tell us exactly. Maybe just

798
01:13:08,627 --> 01:13:11,587
give us a bullet on exactly where the

799
01:13:12,147 --> 01:13:15,027
stops are at. I'm not too concerned with the

800
01:13:15,827 --> 01:13:18,947
jitney Association because they're going to pick up regardless if they got less

801
01:13:19,347 --> 01:13:22,307
stop or more stops or One stop. They

802
01:13:22,307 --> 01:13:24,787
may. They may not be as

803
01:13:24,947 --> 01:13:27,187
concerned, but I would like to see

804
01:13:28,867 --> 01:13:30,307
maybe just a bullet

805
01:13:31,987 --> 01:13:35,427
or if from the administration on exactly where those stops are

806
01:13:35,507 --> 01:13:38,067
at because she was correct when they came

807
01:13:38,227 --> 01:13:40,307
here, the conversation was in front of

808
01:13:38,227 --> 01:13:40,307
here, the conversation was in front of

809
01:13:40,867 --> 01:13:43,667
Bella. And then it was an add-on of adding

810
01:13:44,307 --> 01:13:47,427
across the street as well. So I think we'll have a better

811
01:13:47,667 --> 01:13:51,107
understanding. And we don't have any pictures or proof

812
01:13:51,347 --> 01:13:54,387
of anything. We went off the word of the

813
01:13:51,347 --> 01:13:54,387
of anything. We went off the word of the

814
01:13:54,627 --> 01:13:57,827
one, the residents that came here. But if I think it'll

815
01:13:57,987 --> 01:14:01,427
help, it'll help counsel if we could kind of get

816
01:14:01,587 --> 01:14:04,947
a visual. I'm gonna make a last comment. You know,

817
01:14:01,587 --> 01:14:04,947
a visual. I'm gonna make a last comment. You know,

818
01:14:05,027 --> 01:14:08,467
everybody, as we would appear. But let me just say this. When people come

819
01:14:08,627 --> 01:14:11,907
to council, they are allowed to come and bring their complaints. It's

820
01:14:12,227 --> 01:14:14,867
we've been addressing. We address them and we address both

821
01:14:15,107 --> 01:14:18,547
parties. When one party decides to say, well, I'm gonna stay

822
01:14:15,107 --> 01:14:18,547
parties. When one party decides to say, well, I'm gonna stay

823
01:14:18,547 --> 01:14:21,747
home and then the after the fact and then start

824
01:14:21,907 --> 01:14:23,747
something, that's not the way we do business.

825
01:14:25,427 --> 01:14:27,427
Both parties could have came here and gave their complaints.

826
01:14:28,867 --> 01:14:32,227
Balor came here and gave their complaints. I'm not favoring one or the other. I'm

827
01:14:32,307 --> 01:14:34,467
doing what's right. Straight down the middle.

828
01:14:35,907 --> 01:14:38,867
So we're gonna. You asked me to reconsider. I did.

829
01:14:39,827 --> 01:14:43,187
I didn't want to. Because I would rather for you to vote on it.

830
01:14:44,067 --> 01:14:46,547
And vote your conscience. Either up or down.

831
01:14:47,667 --> 01:14:51,107
But giving people second chances in this town. That's not the way to

832
01:14:51,107 --> 01:14:54,547
go. So sometimes it's not all about just voting your

833
01:14:51,107 --> 01:14:54,547
go. So sometimes it's not all about just voting your

834
01:14:54,547 --> 01:14:56,787
conscious. It's just trying to be clear on the issue. It was

835
01:14:56,867 --> 01:14:58,307
clear. If you go to

836
01:15:00,467 --> 01:15:03,587
and then I'll. I'll let you talk. And then if y'all mind me finishing my

837
01:15:04,067 --> 01:15:06,947
finishing conversation, sometimes it's not just voting

838
01:15:07,507 --> 01:15:10,867
your conscious, it's just being clear. And I guess a couple of

839
01:15:10,947 --> 01:15:14,387
us, we're not clear. And we just, you know, we just

840
01:15:14,467 --> 01:15:17,267
want to postpone it till next month. I really don't care about the

841
01:15:14,467 --> 01:15:17,267
want to postpone it till next month. I really don't care about the

842
01:15:17,667 --> 01:15:21,107
jitneys, and I don't even think they care. And the jettis don't even see any

843
01:15:21,187 --> 01:15:24,547
issues of someone is in front of Bella falling asleep

844
01:15:24,867 --> 01:15:27,907
or sitting down or drinking a soda and throwing a

845
01:15:24,867 --> 01:15:27,907
or sitting down or drinking a soda and throwing a

846
01:15:27,907 --> 01:15:31,347
soda. The jibby, they're not going to see any of that. They just going to

847
01:15:31,347 --> 01:15:33,587
pull up. Someone's going to get on or get

848
01:15:33,827 --> 01:15:37,267
off. And. And that's. That's just really it. And so

849
01:15:37,427 --> 01:15:40,867
I think if we get that information from the administration, we'll have a

850
01:15:37,427 --> 01:15:40,867
I think if we get that information from the administration, we'll have a

851
01:15:40,867 --> 01:15:43,827
better idea. And maybe the Bella in the next 30

852
01:15:43,907 --> 01:15:46,067
days, they could have a broader

853
01:15:46,227 --> 01:15:48,787
conversation, maybe the one in front is a great

854
01:15:49,107 --> 01:15:51,987
idea, but maybe you don't want to cross the street. Maybe that's not a great idea.

855
01:15:49,107 --> 01:15:51,987

1028
01:25:28,147 --> 01:25:29,827
people I didn't even want to hang out with when we

1029
01:25:29,987 --> 01:25:32,707
was. So I'm being

1030
01:25:32,787 --> 01:25:36,227
honest. Being honest, you know, I'm a straight shooter, but I have to

1031
01:25:36,387 --> 01:25:39,187
say this is the best counsel that I've been on

1032
01:25:39,827 --> 01:25:43,267
in a long time, and I hope we keep the camaraderie. I hope we keep

1033
01:25:39,827 --> 01:25:43,267
in a long time, and I hope we keep the camaraderie. I hope we keep

1034
01:25:43,427 --> 01:25:46,707
doing the right for the citizens and I always commend everybody

1035
01:25:46,947 --> 01:25:50,387
out there. But I have to look at the people that I said with these a

1036
01:25:50,707 --> 01:25:52,387
here a tremendous people. They work hard.

1037
01:25:54,307 --> 01:25:57,667
They're out there. You see, it's that ripping cuttings you see us everywhere. And that's

1038
01:25:57,827 --> 01:26:00,787
what we need to do. We are public servants.

1039
01:26:02,227 --> 01:26:05,507
And that's what we need to do. We need to serve the public. So I like to

1040
01:26:02,227 --> 01:26:05,507
And that's what we need to do. We need to serve the public. So I like to

1041
01:26:05,667 --> 01:26:09,107
say thank you. Thank you. Thank you. And thank you. So don't get

1042
01:26:09,267 --> 01:26:12,307
it wrong because you see me. Y'all know I'm a little hot-headed anyway, but I'm

1043
01:26:12,867 --> 01:26:15,747
a gentleman and I do respect each and every individual

1044
01:26:16,467 --> 01:26:19,667

1045
01:26:16,467 --> 01:26:19,667
sitting up here. Up here sitting here. Thank you, Mr.

1046
01:26:19,827 --> 01:26:23,427
President,

1047
01:26:23,427 --> 01:26:26,787
I would like to say something. I understand that you keep seeing eight. This is not your first

1048
01:26:27,107 --> 01:26:27,267
meeting.

1049
01:26:28,867 --> 01:26:32,067
It's unfortunate that I'm on Zoom. And I see you getting up and walking away.

1050
01:26:33,747 --> 01:26:34,787
But I would like to put on a record.

1051
01:26:36,627 --> 01:26:39,427
That it's nine of us. And just because I'm not

1052
01:26:40,387 --> 01:26:40,547
sitting there.

1053
01:26:42,307 --> 01:26:45,427
Does not mean I'm not. Active in my community.

1054
01:26:46,947 --> 01:26:49,187
And doing what I need to do for the second ward.

1055
01:26:50,707 --> 01:26:53,987
And as you say about the second ward, or you say if you, you consider yourself

1056
01:26:50,707 --> 01:26:53,987
And as you say about the second ward, or you say if you, you consider yourself

1057
01:26:54,227 --> 01:26:57,507
not doing nothing for second board, remember

1058
01:26:57,987 --> 01:27:00,547
that it's at largers, that's in charge of the second ward also.

1059
01:27:03,907 --> 01:27:06,547
And again, it's unfortunate. It's unfortunate.

1060
01:27:03,907 --> 01:27:06,547
And again, it's unfortunate. It's unfortunate.

1061
01:27:11,587 --> 01:27:14,947
And that's all I have to say. This is, this is about the fourth meeting that this has

1062
01:27:15,027 --> 01:27:18,467
come up. And, and I, and I see you walk away, which was very ignorant and

1063
01:27:15,027 --> 01:27:18,467
come up. And, and I, and I see you walk away, which was very ignorant and

1064
01:27:18,627 --> 01:27:18,867
rude of you.
