Washington Street and I'd like to read a comments yes 16 00:02:08,640 --> 00:02:17,720 sir I was raised in bash graduated from bash High School in 17 00:02:14,080 --> 00:02:22,879 1954 I left a me there after and off the career and came back about three years 18 00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:28,560 ago I now live in the same building that graduated from high school back high 19 00:02:25,360 --> 00:02:33,160 school and it's an excellent example of what to do 20 00:02:30,640 --> 00:02:37,920 they completely redid that building and turned it into very very nice apartment 21 00:02:36,840 --> 00:02:43,760 for seniors when I came back to B I was 22 00:02:40,560 --> 00:02:50,920 amazed and somewhat disappointed the amount the changes have taking place 23 00:02:46,440 --> 00:02:57,040 especially the loss of population master has really gone through a major 24 00:02:54,239 --> 00:03:05,319 reduction uh when you leave vacon proper is around 25 00:03:01,280 --> 00:03:13,159 they deteriorate they they get storm damages and they end up being bled tax 26 00:03:10,040 --> 00:03:17,959 TR collectors and that's what we today call bled 27 00:03:15,519 --> 00:03:22,799 compies if you drive around Bas you'll see it's not just houses but commercial 28 00:03:20,879 --> 00:03:29,519 buildings the same way I'm not aware of a actual survey 29 00:03:26,640 --> 00:03:36,000 that's been made or or count but if you d do the math B had a population in the 30 00:03:33,519 --> 00:03:42,280 1980s around 15,500 it has a population now 31 00:03:40,720 --> 00:03:48,959 about 8700 so that's a reduction of about 1500 32 00:03:46,400 --> 00:03:55,280 houses will be unoccupied if you allow for some houses 33 00:03:52,040 --> 00:04:02,400 were maintained and still usable you can get that down around 1200 so right now 34 00:03:59,799 --> 00:04:08,280 I'm up the opinion we have about 1,200 houses that are in a 35 00:04:05,319 --> 00:04:17,160 dilapidated situation so it's a big problem to for 36 00:04:13,400 --> 00:04:23,600 us correct we're about five years behind but if you uh think of the problem is 37 00:04:20,680 --> 00:04:30,960 not just the houses it's actually a road block people come in here to to assess 38 00:04:26,680 --> 00:04:37,840 the situations and see all the deap housing they don't want to bring a 39 00:04:33,880 --> 00:04:44,160 part of their businesses here so it spends off in several directions so 40 00:04:41,280 --> 00:04:52,479 tonight what I'd like to do is to propose that the council 41 00:04:49,120 --> 00:04:57,800 consider uh a resolution and I'll read it I recommend 42 00:04:54,960 --> 00:05:03,199 the resolution be considered to specify the like elimination 43 00:05:00,320 --> 00:05:08,759 administrative capability be identified and established to support the code 44 00:05:05,720 --> 00:05:15,080 enforcement office we already have Provisions for a flight elimation team 45 00:05:12,800 --> 00:05:20,639 and this would be a complement to that it would provide the office type legwork 46 00:05:17,960 --> 00:05:26,160 to get the things organized and out to the operation's people so we can get 47 00:05:23,479 --> 00:05:31,680 this thing moving you know economic and time save ways to get this thing going 48 00:05:29,000 --> 00:05:37,319 so we don't have to there point of time if we package it and get contractors L 49 00:05:35,199 --> 00:05:44,039 to work with us I think there a lot of ways that we can reduce the cost and get 50 00:05:39,720 --> 00:05:44,039 this thing done so thank you very 51 00:05:49,280 --> 00:06:02,080 much all right that brings us to number one flight in our city 52 00:05:58,039 --> 00:06:05,080 propos action to be taken on this it let us 53 00:06:13,440 --> 00:06:22,319 reflect all right proposed action to be taken on this item resolution to form a 54 00:06:20,160 --> 00:06:28,560 blight committee to address the blight problem in the 55 00:06:24,240 -->

--> 00:07:54,720 got to be consistent we say we have to table it until we do our research on so 70 00:07:52,680 --> 00:08:00,560 I recommend that we table this until we have a chance to look at it and do our 71 00:07:57,240 --> 00:08:04,840 due diligence and to see what actually it is because we haven't had time to 72 00:08:02,199 --> 00:08:08,440 research it so you know we want to make it fair for everybody we don't want to 73 00:08:06,360 --> 00:08:13,360 look like just when the mayor present it that we table it we need to be 74 00:08:10,520 --> 00:08:18,520 consistent as whether it's myself or anybody on this board or there so I 75 00:08:16,039 --> 00:08:25,000 respectfully ask this board to table it until the next 76 00:08:21,039 --> 00:08:25,000 meeting we have two motions on the 77

questions about is this a fire hazard 93 00:09:48,480 --> 00:09:56,040 and if you look at 1064 it talks about the responsibilities of the black team 94 00:09:52,399 --> 00:10:00,480 members it talks about that uh code of Court enforcment design need is to 95 00:09:58,000 --> 00:10:04,720 perform inspections for the things the city police department responsible for 96 00:10:02,600 --> 00:10:08,279 the locations with that deal with crimes you know what would be considered your 97 00:10:06,640 --> 00:10:13,680 your disorderly places and abandoned vehicles the 98 00:10:10,560 --> 00:10:18,480 Sheriff's Office perform the code enforce they will talk with who has what 99 00:10:16,760 --> 00:10:22,240 they've done and that was to bring in at that time Mr McCain was doing it for the 100 00:10:20,720 --> 00:10:25,320 Sheriff's office there was some thing that he was getting some movement doing 101 00:10:23,600 --> 00:10:28,839 in different techniques the goal and concept behind all of it the fire 102 00:10:26,760 --> 00:10:32,600 department was there to inspect potential firehouses exist from some of 103 00:10:31,079 --> 00:10:38,000 these old houses where we've had fires before where they C on fire the concept 104 00:10:35,360 --> 00:10:41,200 was is to uh and keep morouse beautiful was the Civic organization to help align 105 00:10:39,920 --> 00:10:43,959 the civic interest with the city interest so we didn't have it come out 106 00:10:42,480 --> 00:10:49,320 at these announcements meetings like that that was the concept behind all 107 00:10:46,399 --> 00:10:53,800 this and have meetings so there was you know I've talked to every council member 108 00:10:52,160 --> 00:10:58,480 I've said it from the day before I was ever voted on to be confirmed uh every 109 00:10:56,600 --> 00:11:02,519 person came to me and said hey this is a problem we're having this is what it is 110 00:11:00,480 --> 00:11:07,600 this was to get people the stakeholders in a room to have that dialogue outside 111 00:11:04,720 --> 00:11:11,560 of a council meeting and what they have dialogue with council members and myself 112 00:11:09,720 --> 00:11:14,959 I can say from my experience I've had dialogue with multiple areas these 113 00:11:13,160 --> 00:11:17,440 groups to have that dialogue in a room where everybody's having it together 114 00:11:16,320 --> 00:11:20,880 instead of individually and you're trying to remember hey this is what they 115 00:11:18,760 --> 00:11:24,880 talked about this is their concerns that was the concept behind it was to put 116 00:11:22,440 --> 00:11:29,040 somebody in there so that there is an accountability team of what's going on 117 00:11:27,680 --> 00:11:32,800 what's occurring what these groups can bring so that team hadn't put been put 118 00:11:31,240 --> 00:11:37,320 together yet has not been put together but that team does exist in your 119 00:11:34,240 --> 00:11:42,720 ordinance it's 1060 through 1060 120 00:11:39,160 --> 00:11:46,720 1067 that Mr J remember when I was asking about a board that was that was 121 00:11:44,600 --> 00:11:50,920 intill yeah and that's we kind of got off last last last time we got off on 122 00:11:49,200 --> 00:11:53,480 the that's board I was talking about because you know we talked about the 123 00:11:51,959 --> 00:11:56,399 sheriff department remember I told you I want to find the board you talking about 124 00:11:55,120 --> 00:12:00,240 yes well you just brought it to my attention that's the board we 125 00:11:57,800 --> 00:12:04,399 specifically referring to I help you find you found it you know I told you it 126 00:12:02,560 --> 00:12:09,600 was going to be there so you got different people in it you know all of 127 00:12:06,399 --> 00:12:14,399 us back so do understand sh department and different people you remember you 128 00:12:11,160 --> 00:12:17,959 don't R yes so understand this if we want to change membership of it if we're 129 00:12:16,079 --> 00:12:20,720 getting in the ground for tell me what the changes are I can bring it to the 130 00:12:19,399 --> 00:12:23,519 March meeting because we have to just amend the ordinance we can change the 131 00:12:22,160 --> 00:12:28,480 membership we can change whatever we need to change in it it just I will be 132 00:12:26,839 --> 00:12:32,079 sure to email it out as I've emailed out other things I emailed out that section 133 00:12:30,360 --> 00:12:37,079 of it for look at it for changes and Mr Green is correct Mr J green District C 134 00:12:35,720 --> 00:12:41,639 is correct when we talked about this initially it was realized we put it in 135 00:12:39,680 --> 00:12:45,160 talked with the May's office about it when we were doing the ordinance and 136 00:12:43,199 --> 00:12:50,880 that this would be a conceptual team to get in front of this there was a 137 00:12:47,160 --> 00:12:55,279 discussion between Mr Jer and I and the administration that we would probably be 138 00:12:53,519 --> 00:12:58,240 looking at some way to conform this this was more of a placeholder to put it in 139 00:12:57,000 --> 00:13:03,560 where would the membership come from what would happen how would it look uh 140 00:13:01,639 --> 00:13:06,680 so that we don't overlap things you know we W want to take Planning and Zoning 141 00:13:05,040 --> 00:13:10,920 spot we also want to take the historical spot but how could you keep this to the 142 00:13:08,720 --> 00:13:14,639 Forefront and have that dialogue that seemed like was 143 00:13:12,199 --> 00:13:21,680 lacking I know that both uh the administration and Council have you know 144 00:13:17,839 --> 00:13:26,000 wanted to have that dialogue between our outside Civic groups and the 145 00:13:24,440 --> 00:13:29,199 administration what can be done it's much like grants you know there's a lot 146 00:13:27,880 --> 00:13:33,000 of things that people have offered in the public how can they get to a point 147 00:13:31,279 --> 00:13:37,199 where we can vet all these things so we can be on the same page other than in a 148 00:13:35,040 --> 00:13:41,000 meeting till 10:00 at night has anybody else been appointed from any other 149 00:13:39,199 --> 00:13:45,519 department here no l the first appointment large largely since this has 150 00:13:43,600 --> 00:13:50,440 been enacted that would be the first appointment and we can always we do 151 00:13:48,040 --> 00:13:55,639 always have a right to amend and add yeah other people this is just a first 152 00:13:52,320 --> 00:13:58,680 step yes if you if you wanted to look at it and table it till you got time to 153 00:13:57,279 --> 00:14:03,160 decide what your membership want to be you can do 154 00:14:00,320 --> 00:14:07,320 that if I'm not mistaken the mayor had a spot the clerk had a spot and somebody 155 00:14:05,839 --> 00:14:11,480 else had a spot it was like three or four different spots with Administration 156 00:14:09,240 --> 00:14:16,120 and and the mayor's office has has a spot the Bor police spot the Sheriff's 157 00:14:14,480 --> 00:14:20,399 Office spot the city code enforcement has a spot city council has a spot keep 158 00:14:18,600 --> 00:14:24,240 house beautiful has a spot historic district commission has a spot Planning 159 00:14:21,959 --> 00:14:27,360 and Zoning has a spot City Clark has a spot the design behind City Clark is 160 00:14:26,199 --> 00:14:30,199 because you have somebody with records there it doesn't have to be the city 161 00:14:28,279 --> 00:14:33,320 Clark you can be somebody else who can answer those questions on their behalf 162 00:14:31,920 --> 00:14:36,720 and bring that to the discussion and then the bash fire 163 00:14:35,360 --> 00:14:41,199 department and the city Marshall's office as well as the councel have the 164 00:14:38,519 --> 00:14:46,680 right to appoint one person cor okay we all have a spot and I all have an 165 00:14:43,320 --> 00:14:53,959 obligation to move this project forward um we've been drag I interrupt you 166 00:14:49,480 --> 00:14:59,600 now we all have the right to move this project forward I mean we always go back 167 00:14:56,560 --> 00:15:06,279 and amend I mean each one of these here we need eliminate the council have 168 00:15:01,800 --> 00:15:12,600 a power to eliminate as uh being Council section 10 64 give us the operation to 169 00:15:10,720 --> 00:15:16,800 eliminate team eliminate the team as well but like I said but for us to keep 170 00:15:15,320 --> 00:15:20,160 kicking this can down the road our community we don't get anything done 171 00:15:18,040 --> 00:15:27,160 with be next year year after next was the same bright problem we have this was 172 00:15:23,519 --> 00:15:31,880 just point a we have a committee this is just a point a chairman that who have an 173 00:15:30,040 --> 00:15:35,959 authorization fr the chairman of my understanding would be there's no 174 00:15:33,959 --> 00:15:40,440 chairman in this committee it's it's

that I've been looking 206 00:18:12,919 --> 00:18:20,440 for that was we didn't this is the board we didn't really approve it was added in 207 00:18:18,520 --> 00:18:24,440 that's what I keep going back to it was in the original we just never took it 208 00:18:22,000 --> 00:18:28,080 out that's what I'm saying I kept saying we kept when we looked it over I said we 209 00:18:26,400 --> 00:18:31,600 didn't we probably didn't really want this it may be a good thing but you 210 00:18:30,000 --> 00:18:35,880 remember that and this is what I kept saying it's a board that you supposed to 211 00:18:33,240 --> 00:18:40,039 been went reconstructed because we really went on the same page as this so 212 00:18:38,280 --> 00:18:44,520 why would we vote on something and this is what I've been looking for for the 213 00:18:41,799 --> 00:18:48,320 last six months just and that's and that's correct it wasn't added in but 214 00:18:46,720 --> 00:18:52,400 what it was was when we originally did it we had gone through many versions and 215 00:18:50,400 --> 00:18:56,440 the version that came out that we voted on we had that you yourself and I had 216 00:18:54,960 --> 00:19:00,080 talked about taking it out and when it came time for the vote that night just 217 00:18:58,200 --> 00:19:07,320 of all the things we were doing still open for minut still 218 00:19:04,440 --> 00:19:10,960 open but I think at this point yes to your point of information yes we this is 219 00:19:09,440 --> 00:19:15,799 the one that we discussed about removing that night when we voted it just it 220 00:19:12,760

00:20:05,240 thing that may need to be spelled out if we need to break out different districts 230 00:20:02,039 --> 00:20:05,240 and you have each district have a 231 00:20:05,600 --> 00:20:13,360
