members anna albi and jeffreys.

neely. We s do not or --
PRESIDENT Pro tem parks in the
house. I don't know why I said
that.
[Laughter].
>> [Indiscernible].
>> Councilmember Harris: wow,
okay, I guess it is going to be
one of those mondays. All
right. And we will have two
public speakers.
>> Councilmember Harris: all
right. Public speakers, we have
two public speakers, first is
evan walker, you have the
privilege of the floor for 2
munitz.
>> hello, council thank you for
having me. I'm co-founder
cincinnati skate park project.
Spoken here a few times, been to
a few budget sessions and just
want to thank council and the
city for backing skateboarding,
for coming out in support of
what is a very unique and
specifically urban sport,
sometimes people call it a art,
lifestyle, it is transportation
source. And I know the city
pushing for complete streets,
streets that are safe I safe are
for pedestrians. We the green
cincinnati plan pushing for more
sustainable transport. We want
to make it easier for people to
get around town, get out of
cars, get active. And, you
know, also we know that kids, we
want to keep kids engaged and
skateboarding is uniquely
popular support with young
people. And so we want to find
as many ways possible to get
them outside, get them active.
We're working on a skate park
with your support and this will
help us get kids to the skate
park without needing to get a
ride, find a way there. They
can skate and we skate around
town, people can skate to work.
I think the timing is good with
the olympics in paris this
summer, skateboarding will be in
the olympics it is time to make
it morsel here
can be here in
cincinnati and thank you for
your efforts in doing that.
>>
>> Councilmember Harris: thank
you, next is randy brown. You
have the privilege of the floor
for two minutes.
>> thank you councilmember
harris, council for having us
this afternoon. I'm randy
brown, homeowner, skateboarder,
live and work in city of
cincinnati for the past 13
years. I'm here to support this
change to the city legislation.
Like evan walker my friend said,
I work with the skate park
project. Skateboarding and
roller skating, are safe and
environmentally sustainable,
healthy forms of transportation
and recreation. I think it is
long over due, frankly, that the
city welcome skateboards and
roller skates and skating and
coasting on city streets for a
variety of rosemary that are
enumerated in the whereas
clauses and thank you for
considering this change to your
legislation.
>> Councilmember Harris: thank
you. All right, has the zoom
speaker logged on?
No, all right. That concludes
public comment. We'll jump into
the agenda.
>> DR. Dudas: to the chair item
number 1 is ray municipal code
modification. This ordinance
would modify provisions of 723,
streets and sidewalks, use
regulations of the communes pal
code. It would and skating or
coasting devices, skateboards
and other coasting device
regulation, essentially this
would expand where skateboards
and similar coasting devices can
be utilized on certain city
streets. And what operators of
those devices must do in terms
of pedestrians. So this amends
streets and sidewalks use
regulations.
>> Councilmember Harris: thank
you, so I will also hand it over
to my colleague, MR. Jeffreyses,
we have been working on this for
a white while now. And you know
at the heart this ordinance I
think really affirms our
commitment we made when we
allocated, $500,000 for new
skating facilities and our
traffic laws are out of date.
For non car users and we're
beginning to make them reflect
urban multimodal environmental,
this idea of multimodal
transportation that we talked
about. When we think about
complete streets ordinance,
vision zero, our investments in
traffic calming connected
communities are and putting our
streets as placing places that
are welcoming all users. When
we think about this ordinance it
lays out a couple things t. Lays
our out our prioritization for
skateboarding in the whereas
clauses so remove skateboarding
from the traffic code and heard
at the city office of
administration hearings, not
court. It eliminates the
possibility of jail time and
reduces the fine. It cleans up
the code to more clearly define
skating or coasting device so
there is no ambiguity when it
comes to roller belating, non
electric execute s, it remoms
outdated regulating
skateboarding, section 3 of the
owe ever that skating and
coasting devices so one without
do and safety and rights of
pedestrians and occupants of
other vehicles to endanger the
life, limb, or property a.
Sidewalks or other areas without
exercising reasonable or
ordinary control and in weaving
or zigzag course and that
necessary for safe operation or
in compliance with the law or at
speed greater than is reasonable
and prudent under the conditions
then existing. Our officers
have been work with the lieu
department for I think a year
and a half on this. So the law
department has been incredible
in doing their due diligence to
make sure that we're still
staying comply and the with law
and keeping people safe, but
we're not criminalizing over
criminalizing skateboarding when
we're investing in skate parks
and seeing here go skateboard
but here are all these offenses.
So with that I will turn it over
to councilmember jeffreys.
>> Councilmember Jeffreys: a few
things to adhere. So this is
about making skateboarding more
can be, if you vie light it you
could have jail time which seems
over the top if you
skateboarding it a
administrative fine as it should
be. It adds a few things which
you mention zig-zagging, things
like that are not safe and says
says that's not reasonable and
also speed. So we want to make
sure that people are doing it
responsibly but that it is also
a mode of transportation for
folks who do want to do it. So,
I think it is a good update to
our code to make sure that it is
a now a mode of transportation
for more people but also the
people who do skateboard are
mindful 6 doing it in a very
responsible way.
>> Councilmember Johnson: we do
want to be more friendly in
different modes of
transportation, absolutely. But
and I'm glad law is looking into
it. But we also want to -- and
said it, MR. CHAIRMAN, and I
know you and MR. Jeffreys have
looked into this. But we want
to make sure safety
safeties the number 1 issue for both
skateboarders and those still
operating motor vehicles. We
just don't want it -- I pray
that we are making sure that
even if we got to get back to
skateboard lanes, fantastic, but
we want to make sure that skate
boarders and vehicles are not
meeting each other because
that's not going to be a good
mix. That mix never wins. We
don't win when cars meet cars,
so I thank you, I'm all for
making sure different modes of
transportation and skateboarding
is not a crime. As a police
officer, years ago, it was
ridiculous how some officers
responded to skate boarders. I
just pray that everybody is
making sure safeties the number
one issue. Thank you,
MR. CHAIRMAN.
>> Councilmember Harris: thank
you, and I think and to your
point one of the things that the
law department did was add in
additional language that
actually defined that piece so
that piece around zig-zagging if
we're fought going to create
this sort of space for it, what
we didn't provide was like what
does it mean. So to your point,
I think that was law
department's very, they north
star was like we do want to
decriminalize it but we want to
have very clear guidance on what
is permissible, what isn't and
how folks should be operating.
All right. Without objection
we'll move item number 1 for
passage.
>> DR. Dudas: to the chair, item
number 2 is a ordinance from the
finances didn't department this
would establish a new fund, this
would be general gust grands
404. This would be utilized to
account for revenue from various
grant sources. Essentially due
to the proliferation of grants
the city has been receiving of
late as well as some
prohibitions of putting grant
funding not general fund this
will help us seeing graph gate
and track grant resources going
moved.
>> Councilmember Harris: I love
this is a new problem we have to
deal with. So cued us to all of
the departments for putting in
the work and hustle that we have
this many grants that we're
managing and so that we actually
have to amend our processes to
support that. So, it is a good
problem to have.
>> Councilmember Albi: I want to
emphasize what you said, this is
a good problem to have, I'm
grateful to everybody 1 in the
vagues that's going after these
grants to sure o serve our city
and residents and amazing work
to tap into these funding
sources. So really glad this is
going to be make that process
more efficient and make it
easier for our smaller
departments to
to be able to go
after grant funding. Thank you
for bringing this.
>> Councilmember Harris: without
objection we'll move item number 2 for passage.
>> DR. Dudas: to the chair, item
number 3 is a grant ordinance
from the department of city
planning and engagement. This
is a 25,000-dollar grant it
organize with the U.S.
Department 69 interior and
historic preservation fund which
grant funding is passed through
the ohio history connection
certified local government grant
program. The resources are to
be used to develop a
multiproperty, multiple property
documentation form for the
historic designation of
cincinnati's brewery resources.
And this will be the first grant
ordinance that will utilize the
new general gust grants fund.
>> Councilmember Jeffreys: so,
let let me explain what this is.
So we have been working for
several months with people in
the preservation community on
this initiative. Which seems
kind of bizarre brewery tunnels
but what uc shares with us is we
have more brewery tunnels than
anywhere in the united states,
maybe even the world. Why?
because we have a laggerring
industry. When we brewed lagger
beers you have to have a certain
temperature and air conditioning
wasn't around so we built out
tunnels. St. Louis, milwaukee
filled them in over time. We
still have a lot of them. And
this ordinance here is to apply
for some grants to finish
cataloging what those are. Why
does it matter?
So we would then apply for
what's called a multisite
designation engaging with the
property owners, but this is a
huge opportunity for the city.
Think about this as a tourist
already people come and tour the
brewery tunnels, which are cool.
You know, and organizations or
companies like ghost baby which
if you haven't been to ghost
baby it is amazing have
commercial lized it. And it is
a huge opportunity to.
Protect these but then also
ultimately create a new tourist
even more robust tourist
attraction that's something very
unique cincinnati. So super
excited for this to apply for
the grant.
>> Councilmember Harris:
awesome.
>> Councilmember Owens: thank
you, you identity everything
these are assets that in your on
city that we should cherish.
Who knows what we can can come
about as we save them and turn
them into productive things.
Thank you.
>> Councilmember Harris: without
objection we'll move item number 3 for page passage.
>>
>> DR. Dudas: to the chair item
number 4 is a ordinance from
councilmember owens, this would
authorizes the city manager and
employees of councilmember
owens' staff to solicit and
accept donations of money, in
kind contributions and other
things of value from the
business community, individual
benefactors and other available
sources. These would be used to
facilitate the mind your
business mental health summit
JUNE first.
>> Councilmember Harris: I think
that's hilarious, minding your
business, councilmember owens.
>> Councilmember Owens: thank
you, sounds like we did the name
justice. So yeah so mental
health is such an important
topic and anytime we elevate
this conversation in the
community we should do that. So
coming offer heels of the just
bro tour, we want to continue
this. The city has, you know,
we have the ability to convene
and to continue to highlight the
need. But taking it a step
further where it is an event
that's going to be based on
plenary sessions, fire side
chat, all these opportunities
around learning, ceu being able
to people to benefit from that.
So, education, destigmatizing
families, suicide, all of these
pieces. This related to item
number 6, it will be at the
freedom center. We are, would
go in conjunction with the
mental health recovery board so
it should be an exciting day.
>> Councilmember Albi: thank
you, well thank you
councilmember owens for this
mental health is so important.
Mental health emotional well
being all that being able to
work through that is obviously
important. So I would like to
understand a little more
procedurally how items 4 and 6
work together. Is it
essentially like the city is
like doing a loan for
this/excellent and repayment?
I don't know whoever can walk me
through that process.
>> Councilmember Owens: we will
accept donations and item number 6 will allow us to get
this event going. So that would
be how it would work.
>> Councilmember Albi: isn't I
haven't something like this, so
where do knows initial $20,000
go?
What is it paying for?
>> DR. Dudas: to the chair, to
the councilmember, so item
number 6 a laws essentially
utilizes resources from the
general fund balance seat
reserve account and enables the
city to have funding available
to do the certified contracts
for speakers and any other costs
related to that in advance of
when the donations would be
received. Once the donations
are received, then that funding
would be replenished. And item
number 6 con taken legislation
that would return the $20,000 to
that reserve by JUNE 15th,
assuming that donations are
received in that amount.
>> Councilmember Albi: so if I'm
understanding correctly the up
front costs are going mostly to
speaker fees or rental fees for
the space?
>> DR. Dudas: yes, that's my
understanding.
>> Councilmember Albi: thank you
so much. And then I'm sorry one
more question because you said
JUNE 15, that's the fundraising
goal for item number 4 and if we
MISS That deadline, does
anything happen?
>> DR. Dudas: to the chair, to
the councilmember, the ordinance
returns the money from the
general fund to the reserves so
we would have to have an
accounting of what was received
versus what was spent. We have
estimated $20,000 as the
expenditures, we'll have to see
what the final amount is and
we'll have to see the final
donation amount comes to to
reconcile on JUNE 15th.
>> Councilmember Albi: thank
you. Appreciate that.
>> Councilmember Harris: so I
think in general councilmember
anna albi I planned 3 events.
It always the timing is always a
challenge, but typically when
you fund raise it is -- even
though we're the city, we have
to pay for everything, pay for
the use of the space, pay for
the av, insurance costs, there
is speaker costs, there is food
costs, there is crab rat and
materials, so you will see in
upcoming budget my office will
have a budget request for black
developers conference, but
that's because the timing
allowed for me to do it before.
But just in terms of the being
in the prey perimeters 6 costs
for an event is well within what
that would cost.
>> Councilmember Owens: yes, all
of those items I thought were
talking specific account
numbers, but yeah, all those
pieces will help us get this
going. We will certainly not go
over budget with this event.
>> Councilmember Harris: okay.
We're talking about number 4
without objection, item number 4
we'll move item number 4 fore
passage.
>> DR. Dudas: to the chair, item
number 5 this is a transfer
ordinance for councilmember anna
albi. This would transfer $500,
these are existing funds with in
the councilmember's budget being
transferred from personnel to
non personnel for budget
realignment purposes.
>> Councilmember Harris: all
right. Without objection we'll
move item number 5 for passage.
>> DR. Dudas: to the chair, item
number 6 as previously discussed
is the companion ordinance to
item number 4 related to the
minding your business mental
health summit this. Would
utilize or transfer $20,000 from
the general fund balance sheet
reserve reserve for budget
contingency. And that as city
manager's budget that would
allow for certification of funds
to various contracts and
expenses related to the summit
while fundraising continues.
And then it does return those
dollars to source as of JUNE 15.
>> Councilmember Harris: all
right.
>> Councilmember Owens: one more
thing to happen, it is happening
JUNE 1 at the freedom center.
>> Councilmember Harris: without
objection we'll move item number 6 for passage.
>> DR. Dudas: to the chair, item
number 7 this is the final
adjustment ordinance for the yen
year end for the general fund.
So this does several things,
primarily this authorizes the
transfer of $15 million with in
the general fund. The final
adjustment ordinance is the
ordinance, the ordinances we do
at the end of the year to ensure
that all department accounts
have enough funding to meet
their expenses through the end
of the fiscal year. In this
case in the general fund of that
$15.2 million that's being
transferred, 9.7 million is
within an operations those are
existing and that transferred
within departments or from one
department to another. There is
the remaining $5.5 million is
what we would consider a
supplemental appropriation, so
this is above and beyond what
was authorized in the general
fund in the budget. Of that
$5.5 million, police has a need
of $1.8 million, and fire has a
need of $3.8 million primarily
related to over time expenses as
we have documented in our
monthly budget monitoring
reports. This ordinance also
accomplishes three other things,
first is $591,000 in the fire
department budget that is being
trans period from the general
fund to the fire grants and
donations fund. These funds
were originated from a grant to
provide resources for a health
case worker and other expenses
socialed with the social service
outreach program. This will
make those funds available so
those services can continue past
the end of the fiscal year. The
second additional item is
$200,000 that is being
transferred to the special
events fund. This will provide
resources for summer in cincy
programming to help reduce youth
violence since that's a summer
program that crosses fiscal
years so this will make those
funds available for the entirety
of the summer. And third there
is a transfer and appropriation
of $410,000 from the general
fund to the existing capital
improvement program project
account for the martin luther
king junior monument. This will
provide enough resources to
complete the project based on
current estimates for the scope
of the project.
>> Councilmember Harris: any
questions?
All right. Without objection
we'll move item number 7 for
passage.
>> DR. Dudas: to the chair, item
number 8 this is the final
adjustment ordinance for the
restricted funds so similar in
concept but for the restricted
funds. This will guarantee all
of those funds have sufficient
resources to make it to the end
of the fiscal year. The
restricted funds ordinance
transfers $8.7 million,
$7.1 million so the vast
majorities within an
appropriations meaning those are
existing funds that are being
transferred within those funds
from areas of savings to areas
of needs. There are
$1.7 million worth of
supplemental appropriations,
those supplemental
appropriations cross 8 funds.
The municipal golf fund needs
additional resources due to wear
and tear on the golf courses due
to increased rounds of play.
The storm water utility fund
requires additional resources
for a portion of the additional
costs of the city's recycling
contract. And cincinnati
recreation commission recreation
special activities funds
requires supplemental
appropriation related to the a
quality exhibit bonus and
recruitment plan that council
put in the place last summer.
So there will provide enough
funds to cover those expenses.
And five funds require minor
adjustments for worker
compensation insurance.
>> Councilmember Harris:
councilmember johnson?
>> Councilmember Johnson: thank
you, MR. CHAIRMAN, DR. Dudas I
don't know if this question is
even answerable. How many years
behind are we running in some of
these maintenance issues?
I mean, I do understand that you
are getting more people out on
our golf courses and things like
that. But I'm just, I don't
know like I said I don't know if
that's a question that could be
answered, but it is just amazing
what has been left undone in
this city.
>> DR. Dudas: to the chair, to
the councilmember, for golf the
both the revenues and expenses
are the had municipal golf fund
so it is self contained.
Generally what happens is as
rounds of play increase, which
generates more wear and tear on
the course, that also generates
additional revenue in the fund.
So what recreation does is
assess the condition of the
courses each year and as revenue
is sufficient, utilizes that to
keep the maintenance of the
courses up. So it is in that
fund it is more so year to year,
at least in terms of keeping the
courses play able.
>> Councilmember Jeffreys:
MR. CHAIRMAN?
I just a comment outtook
on the
aquatic's bonus for the last two
or three years we haven't been
able to hire enough life guards,
it is awesome that we figure it
had out and clearly we got the
bone is right, staffing right,
so kudos to crc and the
administration for working it.
it is a lot of hard work to make
sure we have the life guards,
but the fact that we have the
aquatic's bonus and it enables
us to hire people means the
pools can be open. So
congratulations and thank you
for all of your work.
>> Councilmember Harris: 24 in
24!. Without objection we'll
move item number 8 for passage.
>> DR. Dudas: item number 9 is a
legislative resolution from the
department department of
transportation and engineering
as part of the 2023 sidewalk
safety program. This resolution
declares the need for emergency
repairs that have already been
made to sidewalks, curbs, and/or
gutters at a variety of
locations and allows for the
city to levy property tax
assessment for the cost of those
repairs. So property owners
were noticed of the need to make
repairs, having not made those
repairs the work was completed
by the city. So this resolution
would levy the assessment to
collect on those repairs. In
all, there is 132 parcels
identified for total of
$257,000.
>> Councilmember Harris: all
right. Without objection we'll
move item number 9 for passage.
>> DR. Dudas: to the chair, item
number 10 this is a report,
these next three items relate to
the urban forestry assessment.
We have just for a refresher
step 1 has already been
completed to move forward with
the forestry assessment. There
were objections to that
assessment. And council
authorized the creation of the
urban forestry program
assessment equalization board
which met on APRIL 30 to hear
the objection the. The
objection came from csx railroad
for nine parcels. This report
details the finding of the board
which was to maintain the
assessment as currently
configured. The ohio revised
code does require approval of
this report before taking on the
next two steps in the urban
forestry assessment process.
>> Councilmember Harris: seeing
no objection we'll approve and
file item number 10.
>> DR. Dudas: to the chair, item
number 11 this is the ordinance
that would carry out step 2 of
the urban forestry assessment
process. So this ordinance
would determine to proper seatd
with special assessment for
calendar year 2025 for that
urban forestry assessment.
>> Councilmember Harris: without
objection we'll move item number 11 for passage.
>> DR. Dudas: to the chair, item
number 12 this is the third and
final step in the urban forestry
assessment process. This would
levy the special assessment for
calendar year five.
>> Councilmember Harris:
>> Councilmember Harris: without
objection we'll move item number 13, item number 12,
miskeeping ahead, for passage.
>> DR. Dudas: to the chair, item
number 13 is a report. This is
a report related to a council
motion that requested an
analysis of the feasibility of
the ault park fourth of JULY
fireworks continuity. The
report outlines three options.
One, which is to continue with a
con sorb crumb or essentially
reassume community group
managing the process. Second
option would be for parks
department to self proper dues
the fireworks celebration at a
cost of about $32,000 annually.
Or three, do a hybrid model with
community fundraising and parks
producing the fireworks
celebration.
>> thank you, MR. CHAIRMAN, I
want to thank parks department
for putting this report
together. They have worked in
lock step with my office in
having conversations with the
various community groups to get
a solid late of the land of what
is happening and the high try
history. At this time we have a
plan to execute over the next
plan between the parks
department and my offers to
chase down the feasibility.
We're not seeking money from to
council at this point. That's
not part of the game plan we
have here.
Nine initial plan that we
understand from the stakeholders
is that the fund fundraising is
still possible to make it a
reality. It has has a shored
deadline to make JULY 4 work.
We're working and a long term
plan to ultimately hand this
back to the community to make
this sustainable. What's going
gone on with this event it has
expend run by the same group of
volunteers for decades and the
next wave hasn't stepped up yet.
This is a call to action for
them to do so. Anyone who has
interest in this reach out to my
office and parks department.
The time line is very tight but
hopefully we'll be back to you
with what the next steps are.
But again I know there has been
concerns we're going to ask
council to pay for this. That's
not the plan at this stage. It
is to help support the
community, make it through this
bridge year.
>> Councilmember Harris: glad to
hear that. Also glad to hear
parks band width won't be
strained. All right. What's
that 13?
That's a report, right so we'll
approve and file that. Item
number 14.
>> DR. Dudas: to the chair, item
number 14 is a motion. This was
sub petted by councilmember
jeffreys, parks, walsh and anna
albi, this is request for a
report to understand the makeup
of the boots on the ground work
force in city projects,
essentially this would you'll
liz payroll data to inform
worker inclusion so looking at
the workers on city projects
specific jobs and projects with
the city and how does that mesh
with the minority women business
enterprise goals.
>> Councilmember Harris: I was
so confused by this report last
week because I immediately
thought about the boots on the
ground fund and finally we did
our report out and we did our
meeting they made it but I could
not wrap my hand around what you
were asking. Now it is all
clear, councilmember jeffreys.
>> Councilmember Jeffreys: so we
have been working with her
office on this for sometime. It
started with like we as a city
have goals for minority
inclusion in terms of who owns
the business, but we don't have
any goals for on any job site
how many minority or women
workers, browned, are actually
on the site. So if we ask today
a hundred people on a
construction site, how many are
win and minorities, we have no
idea. And so we don't measure
that. So we looked at a bunch
of different options. The best
is certified payroll, it is a
contractor certifies literally
by the individual, the
individual fil sow where do they
live, do they live in the city,
outside the city, in a different
state, are they minority, women,
et cetera. And we're able to
therefore understand what
percentage minorities on all
trades and projects are on city
prevailing wage projects, how
many are women, how many live in
the city or out side the city,
union, non union. At goal of
this is to, you know, the whole
idea of what gets measured gets
done. If we're not measuring it
we have no idea how many women
or minorities are on this we
can't measure progress. It
might only be 5 or 10% in which
case we say how can we through
building futures, other
initiatives build up the number
of minorities and women on these
contracts. So that's the goal.
So they are able to produce this
report because we have been
working with them. This code
notifies it and it will be super
helpful. We hear often the
unions talk about a lot of folks
coming in from tennessee and
other places. This will be able
to get the data to show how many
people are, woulding on city
projects, who live in the city,
outside the city, or outside the
state and be able to set goals
as a result.
>> Councilmember Johnson: thank
you for that clarification
because I was, I'm like I was
confused. But and like I said,
thank you for that
clarification. With this we're
going, it sounds like we're
going to break this down not
only women owned but black,
because minority is a broad term
and a lot of times women owned
businesses are classified, they
are classified as minority
businesses, so when you say
minority, are we breaking this
down to see how many blacks, are
on these jobs, et cetera, et
cetera?
>> Councilmember Jeffreys: so it
is less about the business owner
than like how many people, so
let's say they are electricians,
of the hundred electricians how
many are minority versus women?
I think we can break it down
even further like minority in
terms of his pack panic or
african-american or other if
that's desired, I think the goal
first was just get the helps
measure. If you have, you know,
a thousand laborers on a job,
how many are minority, how many
are women is what's coming back.
>> I thank you for that a lot of
times, I get it minority women
are considered a minority, but
if we are going to dive into
this, I would like to so a break
down like I said I appreciate
what you are doing, I do, I
appreciate this motion all the
way around but if we're going to
dive into break it down, then it
needs to be broke down to women,
blacks, et cetera, et cetera.
>> Councilmember Jeffreys:
totally, think it is a great
point and the administration is
hearing that and can reflect
that.
>> Councilmember Harris: yeah, I
think this report is really
smart because I have often
wondered if we're talking
impact, I've always thought
about a situation in which what
happens if you might have let's
say a predominantly white
institution but their employment
is 40% or 50%, right?
So minority or women, that has
still has a positive impact and
to to know that we can measure
both ownership but also actual
jobs on the ground I think is
really smart as well. It gets
us to our goals I think in/more
comprehensive way.
Councilmember anna albi?
>> Councilmember Albi: I wanted
to highlight we've got some big
projects cotyle up in the city,
right, that are going to be fall
into this budget. So being
able, I'm very intrigued by who
lives in the city. We're
bringing good paying jobs to the
city, are they staffed by
residents?
So that's something I know I
will be looking out for in this
report.
>> Councilmember Harris: without
objection we'll move item number 14 for -- yeah item
number 14 for passage. Anything
else?
All right, this meeting is
adjourned.
