252
00:10:44,828 --> 00:10:45,762

253
00:10:45,762 --> 00:10:48,231
and these 12 interns behind me

254
00:10:48,231 --> 00:10:48,699
were the ones that were chosen,

255
00:10:48,699 --> 00:10:49,198
um, so we

256
00:10:49,198 --> 00:10:50,234

00:10:50,234 --> 00:10:52,569

259
00:10:54,571 --> 00:10:55,872
each are going to be interning

260
00:10:55,872 --> 00:10:57,440
in different departments. Some

261
00:10:57,440 --> 00:10:58,742
departments have taken on two

262
00:10:58,742 --> 00:11:00,677
interns this summer, um, and as

263
00:11:00,677 --> 00:11:03,213
part of our growing grad summer

264
00:11:03,213 --> 00:11:05,613
internship program, they must

265
00:11:06,820 --> 00:11:07,718
work 150 hours, um, maximum,

266
00:11:07,718 --> 00:11:08,251
and they complete weekly

267
00:11:08,251 --> 00:11:09,920
professional development

268
00:11:09,920 --> 00:11:11,421
courses. So today, they spent

269
00:11:11,421 --> 00:11:13,357
time learning about their

270
00:11:13,357 --> 00:11:13,556
Clifton strengths, um, and

271
00:11:13,556 --> 00:11:14,224
they

272
00:11:14,224 --> 00:11:16,192
ll continue to learn other

273
00:11:16,192 --> 00:11:17,661
things to help them in their

274
00:11:17,661 --> 00:11:19,229
soft skills and preparing them

275
00:11:19,229 --> 00:11:20,997
to enter the workforce after

276
00:11:20,997 --> 00:11:21,331
their time with us, um, In

277
00:11:21,331 --> 00:11:22,499
addition, we

278
00:11:22,499 --> 00:11:23,534
re thankful to all

279
00:11:23,534 --> 00:11:24,468
their supervisors who are

280
00:11:24,468 --> 00:11:26,437
hosting them this summer,

281
00:11:26,437 --> 00:11:27,771
because this is something that

282
00:11:27,771 --> 00:11:28,772
they voluntary voluntarily take

283
00:11:28,772 --> 00:11:29,373
on, um, and so it

284
00:11:29,373 --> 00:11:31,373
s a big

285
00:11:32,208 --> 00:11:33,177
benefit for us in this program,

286
00:11:33,177 --> 00:11:35,450
because they have mentorship

287
00:11:35,450 --> 00:11:37,460
and guidance to offer our

288
00:11:37,460 --> 00:11:38,820
interns, um, and give them the

289
00:11:38,820 --> 00:11:40,482
career exploration that they

290
00:11:40,951 --> 00:11:42,319
might not know they were um

291
00:11:42,319 --> 00:11:43,354

with their projects throughout

295
00:11:48,291 --> 00:11:48,425
the summer. Um, so with that,

296
00:11:48,425 --> 00:11:50,425

297
00:11:50,661 --> 00:11:51,495

00:17:27,499 --> 00:17:28,600
of its residents, all of which

475
00:17:28,600 --> 00:17:31,000
contribute to the vibrant

476
00:17:32,905 --> 00:17:34,941

527
00:20:09,462 --> 00:20:10,364
an opportunity for us to look

528
00:20:10,364 --> 00:20:11,865
at our uniqueness and an

529
00:20:11,865 --> 00:20:13,266
opportunity to look at our

530
00:20:13,266 --> 00:20:14,235
sameness. Uh, the celebration

531
00:20:14,235 --> 00:20:15,835
of pride over the course of

532
00:20:15,835 --> 00:20:17,571
this month can be an expression

533
00:20:17,571 --> 00:20:19,573
of joy. It can be an expression

534
00:20:19,573 --> 00:20:21,942
of anger, it can be an

535
00:20:21,942 --> 00:20:24,478
expression of grief, but really

536
00:20:24,478 --> 00:20:26,130
it is an acknowledgment of our

537
00:20:26,130 --> 00:20:28,215
right to be, even when we are

538
00:20:28,215 --> 00:20:30,750
not part of the majority and we

539
00:20:30,750 --> 00:20:32,652
are part of something that

540
00:20:32,652 --> 00:20:33,654
distinct and different.

541
00:20:33,654 --> 00:20:35,550
Celebrating pride for many

542
00:20:35,550 --> 00:20:37,157
people in our community means

543
00:20:37,157 --> 00:20:38,992
stepping out of their comfort

544
00:20:38,992 --> 00:20:40,493
zone and acknowledging and

545
00:20:40,493 --> 00:20:41,495
learning something new about

546
00:20:41,495 --> 00:20:44,495
the people that they already

547
00:20:45,465 --> 00:20:46,934
know. Those of us in the

548
00:20:46,934 --> 00:20:48,836
community have a chance also to

549
00:20:48,836 --> 00:20:52,436
turn out and and celebrate all

550
00:20:52,640 --> 00:20:53,707
of our allies. And perhaps

551
00:20:53,707 --> 00:20:55,309
lament those allies or those

552
00:20:55,309 --> 00:20:56,643
people who are less accepting

553
00:20:56,643 --> 00:20:57,677
than our allies, but to

554
00:20:57,677 --> 00:21:00,677
appreciate the allies all the

555
00:21:00,680 --> 00:21:01,114
more. We don

556
00:21:01,114 --> 00:21:03,114
t need to

557
00:21:04,551 --> 00:21:04,719
understand, to accept. And what

558
00:21:04,719 --> 00:21:05,686
we

559
00:21:05,686 --> 00:21:07,621
ve learned over many years

560
00:21:07,621 --> 00:21:11,158
is that it is harder to hate us

561
00:21:11,158 --> 00:21:14,295
when you know us. So, on behalf

562
00:21:14,295 --> 00:21:16,330
of our, our residents, our

563
00:21:16,330 --> 00:21:17,731
employees, all of their

564
00:21:17,731 --> 00:21:18,232
families, and, and I

565
00:21:18,232 --> 00:21:20,133

growth and diversity. This is a

571
00:21:25,206 --> 00:21:28,206
different place than it was

572
00:21:30,744 --> 00:21:32,980

00:23:57,592 --> 00:23:59,828
community and their allies

647
00:23:59,828 --> 00:24:00,529
intensifying fears amid a

00:24:00,529 --> 00:24:02,929
documented rise in anti-Semitic.

649
00:24:05,166 --> 00:24:05,600

00:24:27,289 --> 00:24:29,691
people for social issues. And

672
00:24:55,217 --> 00:24:57,617

t do it

00:26:39,221 --> 00:26:41,557
without the support of a

725
00:26:41,557 --> 00:26:43,557

00:26:44,590 --> 00:26:44,227

00:27:02,278 --> 00:27:05,248
horrible attack two weeks ago

738
00:27:05,248 --> 00:27:07,717

process and we do have two who

744
00:27:16,325 --> 00:27:19,796
are still in the hospital, but.

745
00:27:19,796 --> 00:27:21,798
An attack on one is an attack

in Hebrew Kulanu haufi, which

750
00:27:37,680 --> 00:27:39,480
means we are all hostages which

751
00:27:39,480 --> 00:27:40,617
easily translates into when one

752
00:27:40,617 --> 00:27:42,585
of us is attacked in a

753
00:27:42,585 --> 00:27:44,955

773
00:28:18,822 --> 00:28:20,900
that, you know, looking around

774
00:28:20,900 --> 00:28:20,724
the room, we

775
00:28:20,724 --> 00:28:22,724
re all just

776
00:28:23,827 --> 00:28:25,228
Americans and uh. We all

777
00:28:25,228 --> 00:28:27,628
identify with the various

778
00:28:29,132 --> 00:28:31,101
groups, uh, religious or ethnic

779
00:28:31,101 --> 00:28:32,469
or um sexual orientation or

780
00:28:32,469 --> 00:28:33,971
otherwise, and we all have a

781
00:28:33,971 --> 00:28:35,472
right to exist without being

782
00:28:35,472 --> 00:28:36,974
targeted for being members of

783
00:28:36,974 --> 00:28:38,809
that group and without being

784
00:28:38,809 --> 00:28:41,809
targeted with violence, we have

785
00:28:41,878 --> 00:28:44,214
a right to speak our mind and

786
00:28:44,214 --> 00:28:45,883
to be able to agree and

787
00:28:45,883 --> 00:28:46,684
disagree civilly. Um, those are

788
00:28:46,684 --> 00:28:48,519
American values, and I

789
00:28:48,519 --> 00:28:49,186
appreciate the city of Brighton

790
00:28:49,186 --> 00:28:52,786
taking this on. Thank you so

791
00:28:56,293 --> 00:28:58,940
much. Well, hello again. I was

792
00:28:58,940 --> 00:28:59,529
up here not that long ago. Uh,

793
00:28:59,529 --> 00:29:00,497
Josh Unckelbaum, Adams County,

794
00:29:00,497 --> 00:29:01,640
Adams County clerk. Uh,

795
00:29:01,640 --> 00:29:01,932
actually, I don

796
00:29:01,932 --> 00:29:03,868
t think any of

797
00:29:03,868 --> 00:29:05,369
you know this, but I myself am

798
00:29:05,369 --> 00:29:07,304
Jewish. I

799
00:29:07,304 --> 00:29:08,672
m also the grandson

800
00:29:08,672 --> 00:29:11,410
of Holocaust survivors. Um, i

801
00:29:11,410 --> 00:29:11,154
in fact have my grandmother

802
00:29:11,154 --> 00:29:12,510
s

803
00:29:12,510 --> 00:29:14,912
tattoo from when she was in

804
00:29:14,912 --> 00:29:16,547
Dachau, um, Her, her prisoner

805
00:29:16,547 --> 00:29:18,415
number tattooed on my arm, uh,

806
00:29:18,415 --> 00:29:19,817
as well to, to remember her. So,

807
00:29:19,817 --> 00:29:22,953
this is something that is near

808
00:29:22,953 --> 00:29:23,670
and dear to me. Um, It, it

809
00:29:23,670 --> 00:29:24,388
s

810
00:29:24,388 --> 00:29:25,456
something that, you know,

811
00:29:25,456 --> 00:29:27,991
obviously hit home with me and

812
00:29:27,991 --> 00:29:28,192
my family, our community, um,

813
00:29:28,192 --> 00:29:29,327
what

814
00:29:29,327 --> 00:29:32,196
s taking place and not

815
00:29:32,196 --> 00:29:33,530
just with the particular event,

816
00:29:33,530 --> 00:29:36,466
uh, in Boulder, but much of the

817
00:29:36,466 --> 00:29:37,501
rhetoric that is taking place

818
00:29:37,501 --> 00:29:38,836
uh here domestically and abroad

819
00:29:38,836 --> 00:29:41,400
against the Jewish community,

820
00:29:41,400 --> 00:29:42,740
um, as well. So, on behalf of

821
00:29:42,740 --> 00:29:44,374
the county, on behalf of myself,

822
00:29:44,374 --> 00:29:44,775
my office. Um, I also I

823
00:29:44,775 --> 00:29:46,243
m here

824
00:29:46,243 --> 00:29:46,777
to accept the proclamation, and

825
00:29:46,777 --> 00:29:48,279
I, um I

826
00:29:48,279 --> 00:29:50,581
m grateful to the city

827
00:29:50,581 --> 00:29:51,415
of Brighton for showing such

828
00:29:51,415 --> 00:29:53,985
leadership in this area, um,

829
00:29:53,985 --> 00:29:55,520
really uh marginalized

830
00:29:55,520 --> 00:29:56,954
communities as a whole, uh, as

831
00:29:56,954 --> 00:29:58,689

868
00:31:46,531 --> 00:31:48,433

869
00:31:48,433 --> 00:31:50,501
as though everything is out of

870
00:31:50,501 --> 00:31:53,501
control, but in reality, things

871
00:31:54,272 --> 00:31:55,473
are coming loose to expose to

872
00:31:55,473 --> 00:31:57,750
expose things and so that we

873
00:31:57,750 --> 00:31:57,609
can receive freedom. I

There

884
00:32:08,719 --> 00:32:10,489
s nothing that surprises

885
00:32:10,489 --> 00:32:11,990
you. You created the beginning

886
00:32:11,990 --> 00:32:12,970
and you create, and you, I

887
00:32:12,970 --> 00:32:13,458
m

888
00:32:13,458 --> 00:32:15,627
sorry, and you could see far

889
00:32:15,627 --> 00:32:16,728
off into the future. Your hand

890
00:32:16,728 --> 00:32:18,563
is moved through the the

891
00:32:18,563 --> 00:32:19,564
entries to bring us to this

892
00:32:19,564 --> 00:32:20,966
very moment in time. And

893
00:32:20,966 --> 00:32:22,567
because you are who you are, we

894
00:32:22,567 --> 00:32:24,802
give you all the praise, glory

895
00:32:24,802 --> 00:32:26,371
and honor. In Revelation 4:11,

896
00:32:26,371 --> 00:32:28,239
it states, you are worthy, o

897
00:32:28,239 --> 00:32:30,309
Lord our GOD, to receive glory

898
00:32:30,309 --> 00:32:32,110
and honor and power, for you

899
00:32:32,110 --> 00:32:32,844
created all things, and they

900
00:32:32,844 --> 00:32:35,844
exist because you created what

901
00:32:36,470 --> 00:32:37,549
you pleased. It pleased you to

902
00:32:37,549 --> 00:32:39,318
create us and to put us and to

903
00:32:39,318 --> 00:32:41,419
put us here at this time. Guide

904
00:32:41,419 --> 00:32:42,754
us in our lives and let us

905
00:32:42,754 --> 00:32:43,755
never forget to extend the

906
00:32:43,755 --> 00:32:45,890
mercy you have shown us to

907
00:32:45,890 --> 00:32:47,893
those we come in contact with.

908
00:32:47,893 --> 00:32:50,162
Father, I lift up to you all

909
00:32:50,162 --> 00:32:52,130
those that call Brighton home.

910
00:32:52,130 --> 00:32:53,310
We all created by you, and we

911
00:32:53,310 --> 00:32:54,799
have many influences that have

912
00:32:54,799 --> 00:32:57,335
come into our lives throughout

913
00:32:57,335 --> 00:32:58,804
our years. We have formed

914
00:32:58,804 --> 00:32:59,938
different differing opinions to

915
00:32:59,938 --> 00:33:00,705
every situation. We

916
00:33:00,705 --> 00:33:02,307
re all

917
00:33:02,307 --> 00:33:03,642
aware of the conflicts here in

918
00:33:03,642 --> 00:33:05,644
our nation as well as around

919
00:33:05,644 --> 00:33:06,645
the world. All of us have been

920
00:33:06,645 --> 00:33:08,130
affected. Lives have been

921
00:33:08,130 --> 00:33:10,749
shattered, and lives have been

922
00:33:10,749 --> 00:33:10,916
lost. We all want peace, but we

923
00:33:10,916 --> 00:33:12,717
can

924
00:33:12,717 --> 00:33:14,619
t decide how to achieve it.

925
00:33:14,619 --> 00:33:15,787
We easily grow weary with the

926
00:33:15,787 --> 00:33:17,255
calamity that surrounds us.

927
00:33:17,255 --> 00:33:19,157
Comfort those that have been

928
00:33:19,157 --> 00:33:20,692
directly affected by the recent

929
00:33:20,692 --> 00:33:23,128
tragedies bring peace to them

930
00:33:23,128 --> 00:33:25,864
and those around them. There is

931
00:33:25,864 --> 00:33:27,432
good advice in our lives found

932
00:33:27,432 --> 00:33:29,768
in First Chronicles 16:11 as it

933
00:33:29,768 --> 00:33:31,360
states, seek the Lord and His

934
00:33:31,360 --> 00:33:33,305
strength. Seek His presence

935
00:33:33,305 --> 00:33:34,873
continually. Give us your

936
00:33:34,873 --> 00:33:36,375
strength and give us your

937
00:33:36,375 --> 00:33:37,243
presence. We need to be

938
00:33:37,243 --> 00:33:39,178
surrounded by you so you can

939
00:33:39,178 --> 00:33:41,130
have the influence in our lives.

940
00:33:41,130 --> 00:33:42,548
We need to do better to those

941
00:33:42,548 --> 00:33:44,500
around us. As you look at us,

942
00:33:44,500 --> 00:33:46,180
you are pleased with your

943
00:33:46,180 --> 00:33:47,319
creation. One minute. Help us

944
00:33:47,319 --> 00:33:48,287
to make decisions that please

945
00:33:48,287 --> 00:33:50,389
you and bring peace to our

946
00:33:50,389 --> 00:33:52,291
hurting world. You are a GOD,

947
00:33:52,291 --> 00:33:52,491
and we are your people. In

948
00:33:52,491 --> 00:33:54,293
Jesus

949
00:33:54,293 --> 00:33:55,394
name we pray. Amen.

00:33:55,394 --> 00:33:58,430

any ex parte communication

977
00:34:59,559 --> 00:35:01,493
regarding this. This is pretty

978
00:35:01,493 --> 00:35:01,994
cut and dry items, so we

979
00:35:01,994 --> 00:35:03,994
ll go

980
00:35:04,496 --> 00:35:05,932
on to having our city manager.

00:35:06,390 --> 00:35:06,866

983
00:35:06,866 --> 00:35:08,267
present. Thank you, Mayor,

984
00:35:08,267 --> 00:35:09,235
presenting this item is our

985
00:35:09,235 --> 00:35:11,635
budget and performance manager,

986
00:35:12,738 --> 00:35:14,273
Katherine Mortenson. Welcome,

987
00:35:14,273 --> 00:35:14,574
Katherine. Good evening. So I

988
00:35:14,574 --> 00:35:16,574
m

989
00:35:16,709 --> 00:35:20,309
here with our 2nd Amendment to

990
00:35:20,613 --> 00:35:22,810
the 2025 budget tonight. Um,

991
00:35:22,810 --> 00:35:23,550
you have all seen this before,

992
00:35:23,550 --> 00:35:24,951
but again, just a quick

993
00:35:24,951 --> 00:35:26,419
reminder, we do these budget

994
00:35:26,419 --> 00:35:27,954
amendments when what we have

995
00:35:27,954 --> 00:35:29,756
already appropriated in the

996
00:35:29,756 --> 00:35:31,224
budget is not enough to cover

997
00:35:31,224 --> 00:35:32,258
things that came up

998
00:35:32,258 --> 00:35:33,726
unexpectedly. The few things we

999
00:35:33,726 --> 00:35:34,361
have tonight are a few

1000
00:35:34,361 --> 00:35:34,527
additional grant awards that

1001
00:35:34,527 --> 00:35:36,527
we

1002
00:35:37,230 --> 00:35:38,765
ve received. An increase to

1003
00:35:38,765 --> 00:35:40,600
our 2025 small business grant

1004
00:35:40,600 --> 00:35:41,868
funds and an increase in water

1005
00:35:41,868 --> 00:35:44,437
rates that are paid by the

1006
00:35:44,437 --> 00:35:46,405
Water Enterprise fund. Diving

1007
00:35:46,405 --> 00:35:48,174
in just a little bit, there are

1008
00:35:48,174 --> 00:35:49,108
3 grants that are being added,

1009
00:35:49,108 --> 00:35:50,876
that are having appropriation

1010
00:35:50,876 --> 00:35:53,120
added in the amendment before

1011
00:35:53,120 --> 00:35:53,913
you tonight. One is for Dola.

1012
00:35:53,913 --> 00:35:56,349
These are actually two separate

1013
00:35:56,349 --> 00:35:58,818
grants that we got from them to

1014
00:35:58,818 --> 00:35:59,485
adjust our housing needs plan,

1015
00:35:59,485 --> 00:36:01,821
uh, for our community

1016
00:36:01,821 --> 00:36:01,953
development department, that

1017
00:36:01,953 --> 00:36:03,953
s

1018
00:36:04,157 --> 00:36:04,357
about $95,000. Additionally,

1019
00:36:04,357 --> 00:36:05,910
there

1020
00:36:05,910 --> 00:36:06,993
s the 2025 scfd grant.

1021
00:36:06,993 --> 00:36:08,610
This is a grant that we receive

1022
00:36:08,610 --> 00:36:08,461
every year. We didn

1023
00:36:08,461 --> 00:36:09,462
t know the

1024
00:36:09,462 --> 00:36:11,931
amount until we actually got

1025
00:36:11,931 --> 00:36:12,833
the award, which was after the

1026
00:36:12,833 --> 00:36:14,800
budget was adopted. And then

1027
00:36:14,800 --> 00:36:16,669
the third one there is a cd.

1028
00:36:16,669 --> 00:36:18,204
Phd grant for emerging

1029
00:36:18,204 --> 00:36:18,971
contaminants that is going to

1030
00:36:18,971 --> 00:36:21,371
our utilities department and

1031
00:36:22,643 --> 00:36:22,842
our water fund. In total,

1032
00:36:22,842 --> 00:36:24,310
that

1033
00:36:24,310 --> 00:36:26,313
s about 373,000 added for

1034
00:36:26,313 --> 00:36:28,248
those additional grant awards.

1035
00:36:28,248 --> 00:36:29,349
The next item is our small

1036
00:36:29,349 --> 00:36:30,784
business grant. This is a

1037
00:36:30,784 --> 00:36:31,818
program that we do each year

1038
00:36:31,818 --> 00:36:33,553
with our lodging tax dollars.

1039
00:36:33,553 --> 00:36:34,221
This is run through our

1040
00:36:34,221 --> 00:36:36,221
economic development department.

1041
00:36:37,491 --> 00:36:39,926
As we talked about last time,

1042
00:36:39,926 --> 00:36:41,528
we were talking about the

1043
00:36:41,528 --> 00:36:43,263
lodging tax fund when our city

1044
00:36:43,263 --> 00:36:44,698
attorney was presenting the

1045
00:36:44,698 --> 00:36:45,699
updates to that resolution. We

1046
00:36:45,699 --> 00:36:47,601
have some additional fund

1047
00:36:47,601 --> 00:36:48,268
balance in there, and you

1048
00:36:48,268 --> 00:36:49,703
requested that our departments

1049
00:36:49,703 --> 00:36:51,772
are the ones who get to decide

1050
00:36:51,772 --> 00:36:53,607
how that is used in accordance

1051
00:36:53,607 --> 00:36:55,542
to that lodging tax ordinance.

1052
00:36:55,542 --> 00:36:56,977
So using some of that fund

1053
00:36:56,977 --> 00:36:57,678
balance, we are proposing

1054
00:36:57,678 --> 00:36:58,780
tonight that there

1055
00:36:58,780 --> 00:36:59,412
s a cash

1056
00:36:59,412 --> 00:37:00,580
transfer out of that lodging

1057
00:37:00,580 --> 00:37:03,350
tax fund that will come into

1058
00:37:03,350 --> 00:37:03,617
the general fund as revenue,

1059
00:37:03,617 --> 00:37:04,551
and that

1060
00:37:04,551 --> 00:37:06,152
s $100,000 which

1061
00:37:06,152 --> 00:37:07,654
allows us to spend that

1062
00:37:07,654 --> 00:37:09,789
$100,000 out of the general

1063
00:37:09,789 --> 00:37:10,491
fund, where the economic

1064
00:37:10,491 --> 00:37:11,992
development department will go

1065
00:37:11,992 --> 00:37:13,260
to people who are on their wait

1066
00:37:13,260 --> 00:37:13,460
list for this year

1067
00:37:13,460 --> 00:37:15,950
s grants and

1068
00:37:15,950 --> 00:37:16,563
give out just an additional

1069
00:37:16,563 --> 00:37:17,263
100,000 in that same grant

1070
00:37:17,263 --> 00:37:20,263
program that they typically run.

1071
00:37:20,534 --> 00:37:21,868
And the last item here is some

1072
00:37:21,868 --> 00:37:23,904
additional water payments each

1073
00:37:23,904 --> 00:37:25,439
year. We pay the City of

1074
00:37:25,439 --> 00:37:28,174
Thornton for water that we use

1075
00:37:28,174 --> 00:37:28,975
that they provide for us. They

1076
00:37:28,975 --> 00:37:30,344
had a higher percentage

1077
00:37:30,344 --> 00:37:31,611
increase this year than we were

1078
00:37:31,611 --> 00:37:33,120
anticipating. We got

1079
00:37:33,120 --> 00:37:35,150
notification of that just a few

1080
00:37:35,150 --> 00:37:35,916
weeks after the budget was

1081
00:37:35,916 --> 00:37:36,416
adopted, so projections are

1082
00:37:36,416 --> 00:37:36,950
looking like we

1083
00:37:36,950 --> 00:37:38,552
re going to

1084
00:37:38,552 --> 00:37:40,354
spend a little over 700,000

1085
00:37:40,354 --> 00:37:41,755
more than we had budgeted, and

1086
00:37:41,755 --> 00:37:44,190
that is being added in this

1087
00:37:44,190 --> 00:37:47,190
amendment here tonight. All in

1088
00:37:47,494 --> 00:37:48,529
all, this adds about $1.3

1089
00:37:48,529 --> 00:37:51,529
million to the 2025 budget and

1090
00:37:51,632 --> 00:37:54,100
brings our total city budget to

1091
00:37:54,100 --> 00:37:55,102
312 million for 2025. And with

1092
00:37:55,102 --> 00:37:58,505
that, I will turn it back over

1093
00:37:58,505 --> 00:37:59,539
to you, Mayor. All right, I

1094
00:37:59,539 --> 00:37:59,940
mean, obviously I don

1095
00:37:59,940 --> 00:38:01,800
t have to

1096
00:38:01,800 --> 00:38:01,138
ask the applicant if there

1097
00:38:01,138 --> 00:38:02,810

1098
00:38:02,810 --> 00:38:03,244
anything to add because you

1099
00:38:03,244 --> 00:38:05,244

1100
00:38:05,813 --> 00:38:06,847
the applicant. So I will ask if,

1101
00:38:06,847 --> 00:38:07,614
well, if, if there

1102
00:38:07,614 --> 00:38:09,183

1103
00:38:09,183 --> 00:38:09,349
that wants to speak on this,

1104
00:38:09,349 --> 00:38:10,500
you

1105
00:38:10,500 --> 00:38:10,251
re welcome to do that.

1106
00:38:10,251 --> 00:38:10,784
There

1107
00:38:10,784 --> 00:38:11,118
s sign up sheets in the

1108
00:38:11,118 --> 00:38:12,252
back. You

1109
00:38:12,252 --> 00:38:13,587
ll have 3 minutes if

1110
00:38:13,587 --> 00:38:13,921
you do, but I, I don

1111
00:38:13,921 --> 00:38:15,921
t have

1112
00:38:16,790 --> 00:38:18,258
anybody send it to speak, so

1113
00:38:18,258 --> 00:38:19,293
MADAM City clerk, anybody sign

1114
00:38:19,293 --> 00:38:22,893

1115
00:38:24,264 --> 00:38:26,200
one. No, Your Honor, ok. All

1116
00:38:26,200 --> 00:38:28,102
right. Questions from counsel.

1117
00:38:28,102 --> 00:38:28,302
If I see none. Oh, there

1118
00:38:28,302 --> 00:38:30,302
s one.

1119
00:38:30,938 --> 00:38:32,440
Mayor Protem. Thank you. I just

1120
00:38:32,440 --> 00:38:34,374
wanted to check and confirm one

1121
00:38:34,374 --> 00:38:37,278
thing on the lodging tax

1122
00:38:37,278 --> 00:38:39,678
allocations into the general

1123
00:38:40,147 --> 00:38:40,848
fund that will specifically be

1124
00:38:40,848 --> 00:38:41,615
directed to economic

1125
00:38:41,615 --> 00:38:42,549
development. So it

1126
00:38:42,549 --> 00:38:44,485
s not that

1127
00:38:44,485 --> 00:38:45,218
the city will be directly

1128
00:38:45,218 --> 00:38:47,154
responsible for any grants that

1129
00:38:47,154 --> 00:38:48,356
would be through the regular

1130
00:38:48,356 --> 00:38:49,323
grant process will go through

1131
00:38:49,323 --> 00:38:51,292
the economic development

1132
00:38:51,292 --> 00:38:52,326
corporation. Ok, excellent. I

1133
00:38:52,326 --> 00:38:53,194
think that that was the thing I

1134
00:38:53,194 --> 00:38:53,527
just wanted to make sure is

1135
00:38:53,527 --> 00:38:54,295
that we hadn

1136
00:38:54,295 --> 00:38:55,630
t created a new

1137
00:38:55,630 --> 00:38:56,163
grant program for the city

1138
00:38:56,163 --> 00:38:56,830
itself. No, it

1139
00:38:56,830 --> 00:38:57,231
s the same one

1140
00:38:57,231 --> 00:38:58,199
that they

1141
00:38:58,199 --> 00:38:58,665
re doing. It

1142
00:38:58,665 --> 00:39:00,601
s just

1143
00:39:00,601 --> 00:39:03,404
an additional amount. Ok, thank

1144
00:39:03,404 --> 00:39:03,604
you. Great to clarify that.

1145
00:39:03,604 --> 00:39:04,872
There

1146
00:39:04,872 --> 00:39:06,774

pulled from consent agenda so

1199
00:40:48,343 --> 00:40:50,245
that the uh the ordinance could

1200
00:40:50,245 --> 00:40:53,114
have uh, have two corrections

1201
00:40:53,114 --> 00:40:55,917
made to it. Uh, this, uh,

1202
00:40:55,917 --> 00:40:58,419
ordinance was regarding the uh

1203
00:40:58,419 --> 00:40:58,686
primarily uh changes dealing

1204
00:40:58,686 --> 00:40:59,220
with adu

1205
00:40:59,220 --> 00:41:00,755
s regulations that

00:41:00,755 --> 00:41:04,726
went to a first reading on MAY

1207
00:41:04,726 --> 00:41:05,860
20th. Uh, those amendments

1208
00:41:05,860 --> 00:41:07,860
included several definition

1209
00:41:08,620 --> 00:41:09,970
additions and revisions, and as

1210
00:41:09,970 --> 00:41:10,999
usual, the amendments went

1211
00:41:10,999 --> 00:41:12,367
through the process, uh, my

1212
00:41:12,367 --> 00:41:14,767
approval by the Planning

1213
00:41:14,903 --> 00:41:17,205

Land Use Development Code uh

1216
00:41:21,643 --> 00:41:23,440
requirements and uh those uh

1217
00:41:23,440 --> 00:41:26,440
criteria were also presented to

1218
00:41:27,615 --> 00:41:29,585
city council on MAY 20th. The

1219
00:41:29,585 --> 00:41:31,520
two changes are first. That it

1220
00:41:31,520 --> 00:41:32,955
was made clear that the

1221
00:41:32,955 --> 00:41:34,423
definition of affordable

1222
00:41:34,423 --> 00:41:36,458
housing was meant to replace

1223
00:41:36,458 --> 00:41:37,359
the current definition of

1224
00:41:37,359 --> 00:41:37,793
housing, affordable. We didn

1225
00:41:37,793 --> 00:41:39,261
t

1226
00:41:39,261 --> 00:41:42,130
want to assume that, uh, that

1227
00:41:42,130 --> 00:41:43,132
was a given and so we made the

1228
00:41:43,132 --> 00:41:45,100
ordinance specific to uh to

1229
00:41:45,100 --> 00:41:47,200
make sure that that occurred.

1230
00:41:47,200 --> 00:41:48,971
And secondly, a finding section

1231
00:41:48,971 --> 00:41:50,906
was added to the ordinance that

1232
00:41:50,906 --> 00:41:52,700
outlines how those amendments

1233
00:41:52,700 --> 00:41:54,943
did meet the criteria that are

1234
00:41:54,943 --> 00:41:56,711
included in, in the ludc

1235
00:41:56,711 --> 00:41:58,147
process. Uh, so there were no

1236
00:41:58,147 --> 00:41:58,814
changes to the definitions or

1237
00:41:58,814 --> 00:42:00,616
to the amendment criteria that

1238
00:42:00,616 --> 00:42:03,510
you. Reviewed and that was

1239
00:42:03,510 --> 00:42:06,510
voted on at first reading.

1240
00:42:07,423 --> 00:42:07,656
Thank you. Well, if there

1241
00:42:07,656 --> 00:42:08,224

1245
00:42:14,196 --> 00:42:14,396

1248
00:42:18,330 --> 00:42:18,968
I had to go and look up what

1249
00:42:18,968 --> 00:42:20,169
Scrivener Corrections were. So

1250
00:42:20,169 --> 00:42:21,470
there was a word in the

1251
00:42:21,470 --> 00:42:22,304

1252
00:42:22,304 --> 00:42:24,206

uh, which, uh, It was kind of

1254
00:42:25,741 --> 00:42:27,543
fun. You learn something new

every clerical or a

1256
00:42:28,543 --> 00:42:30,445
typographical mistake, but I

knew that there was a better

1258
00:42:33,983 --> 00:42:34,216
way to say that. Um, so, uh,

1259
00:42:34,216 --> 00:42:36,850

our director of utilities,

Scott Olson. Good evening,

1347
00:45:29,426 --> 00:45:30,894
Mayor Mayor Protein, members of

1348
00:45:30,894 --> 00:45:32,895
council, uh, this evening, the

1349
00:45:32,895 --> 00:45:34,698
item, uh, that I have for you

1350
00:45:34,698 --> 00:45:36,966
is a t-Mobile cell tower lease.

1351
00:45:36,966 --> 00:45:39,969
Uh, the lease is located at our

1352
00:45:39,969 --> 00:45:41,905
Southwater tank storage. So

1353
00:45:41,905 --> 00:45:43,574
this evening, I will walk you

1354
00:45:43,574 --> 00:45:45,409
through um a brief overview of

1355
00:45:45,409 --> 00:45:47,210
the existing lease that we have

1356
00:45:47,210 --> 00:45:48,846
with t-Mobile, um, an overview

1357
00:45:48,846 --> 00:45:49,947
of the proposed lease with

1358
00:45:49,947 --> 00:45:50,813
t-Mobile, provide staff

1359
00:45:50,813 --> 00:45:53,213
recommendation, and then open

1360
00:45:53,717 --> 00:45:55,919
it for any questions. So, as I

1361
00:45:55,919 --> 00:45:57,788
stated, we do have an existing

1362
00:45:57,788 --> 00:45:59,990
lease, uh, that original lease

1363
00:45:59,990 --> 00:46:02,492
was signed back in DECEMBER of

1364
00:46:02,492 --> 00:46:04,494
2006, and that lease is

1365
00:46:04,494 --> 00:46:06,463
actually with Nextel, um,

1366
00:46:06,463 --> 00:46:09,199
Nexttel, um, was purchased by

1367
00:46:09,199 --> 00:46:10,667
t-Mobile. Um, the tenant

1368
00:46:10,667 --> 00:46:11,602
provided notice of additional

1369
00:46:11,602 --> 00:46:13,700
equipment that they installed

1370
00:46:13,700 --> 00:46:15,538
at the half million gallon

1371
00:46:15,538 --> 00:46:17,507
elevated tank in FEBRUARY of

1372
00:46:17,507 --> 00:46:18,409
2015, uh, and that did not take

1373
00:46:18,409 --> 00:46:21,446
up any additional space at the

1374
00:46:21,446 --> 00:46:24,381
site. Uh, the original lease

1375
00:46:24,381 --> 00:46:27,251
that we had with Nextel and

1376
00:46:27,251 --> 00:46:29,219
then t-Mobile, um, terminated

1377
00:46:29,219 --> 00:46:31,188
in DECEMBER of 2021, and we

1378
00:46:31,188 --> 00:46:32,656
negotiated a month to month

1379
00:46:32,656 --> 00:46:34,910
lease with them under the terms

1380
00:46:34,910 --> 00:46:36,627
or matching the terms of that

1381
00:46:36,627 --> 00:46:38,610
original lease agreement. Uh,

1382
00:46:38,610 --> 00:46:40,970
t-Mobile has approached us and

1383
00:46:40,970 --> 00:46:43,697
we have negotiated a new lease,

1384
00:46:43,868 --> 00:46:45,135
um, So that will supersede this

1385
00:46:45,135 --> 00:46:47,471
this month to month lease that

1386
00:46:47,471 --> 00:46:49,539
we have been, um, operating on

1387
00:46:49,539 --> 00:46:51,342
for the last several years. Uh,

1388
00:46:51,342 --> 00:46:52,843
the initial term of that new

1389
00:46:52,843 --> 00:46:56,213
lease is for 10 years with the

1390
00:46:56,213 --> 00:46:57,214
option to renew for two

1391
00:46:57,214 --> 00:46:58,515
successive 5-year terms,

1392
00:46:58,515 --> 00:47:00,915
followed by two successive

1393
00:47:02,319 --> 00:47:05,222
1-year terms. Uh, the city or

1394
00:47:05,222 --> 00:47:06,230
the tenant, uh t-Mobile can

1395
00:47:06,230 --> 00:47:07,758
terminate after the initial

1396
00:47:07,758 --> 00:47:08,559
term, as long as the proper

1397
00:47:08,559 --> 00:47:11,559
notice is given per the

1398
00:47:11,796 --> 00:47:13,960
agreement. Um, as I stated, we

1399
00:47:13,960 --> 00:47:15,299
have negotiated all of the

1400
00:47:15,299 --> 00:47:17,101
terms of the lease, including

1401
00:47:17,101 --> 00:47:18,903
what occurs if the city has to

1402
00:47:18,903 --> 00:47:21,303
perform maintenance, and we

1403
00:47:21,572 --> 00:47:22,472
have to temporarily temporarily

1404
00:47:22,472 --> 00:47:25,472
relocate those uh cell antennas.

1405
00:47:26,977 --> 00:47:28,413
The rent under this new

1406
00:47:28,413 --> 00:47:30,813
proposed lease is $2500 per

1407
00:47:31,416 --> 00:47:32,283
month, and that increases 3%

1408
00:47:32,283 --> 00:47:35,283
annually on the anniversary of

1409
00:47:36,154 --> 00:47:37,722
that lease. Our staff

1410
00:47:37,722 --> 00:47:38,622
recommendation is to approve

1411
00:47:38,622 --> 00:47:40,591
the resolution authorizing the

1412
00:47:40,591 --> 00:47:43,494
city manager to sign that new

1413
00:47:43,494 --> 00:47:44,729
lease with the city and uh

1414
00:47:44,729 --> 00:47:47,197
t-Mobile West llc, which is

1415
00:47:47,197 --> 00:47:48,298
their official name. And with

1416
00:47:48,298 --> 00:47:51,569
that, I will take any questions.

1417
00:47:51,569 --> 00:47:53,969
Questions. We got Council

1418
00:47:54,271 --> 00:47:57,108
member Green. Thank you, Beer.

1419
00:47:57,108 --> 00:47:59,476
Thank you, Scott. Um, What was

1420
00:47:59,476 --> 00:48:03,760
the run before? Uh, I believe

1421
00:48:03,247 --> 00:48:03,414
that it was like 1350. Ok, so

1422
00:48:03,414 --> 00:48:05,414
it

1423
00:48:05,750 --> 00:48:05,916
s a significant increase and

1424
00:48:05,916 --> 00:48:06,617
it

1425
00:48:06,617 --> 00:48:08,152
s transferable, obviously,

1426
00:48:08,152 --> 00:48:08,820
since that

1427
00:48:08,820 --> 00:48:10,454
s how Nex health

1428
00:48:10,454 --> 00:48:11,922
t-Mobile got it from them if

1429
00:48:11,922 --> 00:48:13,558
t-Mobile were to be bought out

1430
00:48:13,558 --> 00:48:13,858
by somebody, um, I

1431
00:48:13,858 --> 00:48:15,126
m not sure

1432
00:48:15,126 --> 00:48:16,494
that that would really occur,

1433
00:48:16,494 --> 00:48:20,694
but yes, it would be. Thank you.

1434
00:48:21,990 --> 00:48:23,499
Any other questions, Council

1435
00:48:25,360 --> 00:48:27,571
member Tadeo. I have a question.

1436
00:48:27,571 --> 00:48:31,771
Why did we, um, why, why have

1437
00:48:32,420 --> 00:48:32,577
we been expired since 2021. Um,

1438
00:48:32,577 --> 00:48:33,411
so we couldn

1439
00:48:33,411 --> 00:48:34,412
t come to an

1440
00:48:34,412 --> 00:48:35,379
agreement on the terms. So we

1441
00:48:35,379 --> 00:48:35,880
just said, hey, why don

1442
00:48:35,880 --> 00:48:37,448
t we go

1443
00:48:37,448 --> 00:48:37,782
to a month to month lease, um,

1444
00:48:37,782 --> 00:48:38,216
and that

1445
00:48:38,216 --> 00:48:38,416
s what we

1446
00:48:38,416 --> 00:48:40,416
ve been

1447
00:48:40,585 --> 00:48:40,785
operating under. And so then

1448
00:48:40,785 --> 00:48:41,385
what

1449
00:48:41,385 --> 00:48:41,552
s been different? I mean,

1450
00:48:41,552 --> 00:48:42,887
we

1451
00:48:42,887 --> 00:48:43,788
ve just been able to

1452
00:48:43,788 --> 00:48:44,923
negotiate something that

1453
00:48:44,923 --> 00:48:47,192
everybody can agree on at this

1454
00:48:47,192 --> 00:48:49,260
point. Exactly, yep, the, the

1455
00:48:49,260 --> 00:48:50,695
new rent and what, what do we

1456
00:48:50,695 --> 00:48:52,163
do when um we have to work on

1457
00:48:52,163 --> 00:48:53,565
the tanks. That was a big point

1458
00:48:53,565 --> 00:48:55,433
of contention in the past. It

1459
00:48:55,433 --> 00:48:56,434
is pretty costly if you have to

1460
00:48:56,434 --> 00:48:58,537
take those antennas down and

1461
00:48:58,537 --> 00:49:00,238
put them what they call antenna

1462
00:49:00,238 --> 00:49:00,349
on wheels. Um, so we

1463
00:49:00,349 --> 00:49:01,473
ve

1464
00:49:01,473 --> 00:49:03,873
negotiated, um, terms around

1465
00:49:06,878 --> 00:49:07,790
that. Great. Thank you. If

1466
00:49:07,790 --> 00:49:07,879
there

1467
00:49:07,879 --> 00:49:08,460
s no other questions,

1468
00:49:08,460 --> 00:49:10,460
we

1469
00:49:10,214 --> 00:49:11,783
ll go on to, uh, Motions

1470
00:49:11,783 --> 00:49:13,783
Councilmember Fiddler. Thank

1471
00:49:14,119 --> 00:49:18,319

member Green. I will second

1474
00:49:22,994 --> 00:49:26,594
that motion. 1st and 2nd to

1475
00:49:31,202 --> 00:49:33,738

1476
00:49:33,738 --> 00:49:36,138
passes 8 to 0. Thank you

1477
00:49:38,911 --> 00:49:40,545
everyone for your time. Next,

1478
00:49:40,545 --> 00:49:43,749
going on to reports. Start with

1479
00:49:43,749 --> 00:49:47,349
reports by the mayor. Last week,

1480
00:49:48,287 --> 00:49:50,556
I was a part of the um Adcog

1481
00:49:50,556 --> 00:49:52,490
subregional committee and, um,

1482
00:49:52,490 --> 00:49:54,993
We were discussing the 4p

1483
00:49:54,993 --> 00:49:55,394
process and that that

1484
00:49:55,394 --> 00:49:56,610
s the

1485
00:49:56,610 --> 00:49:56,294
upcoming transportation funding

1486
00:49:56,294 --> 00:49:58,294
that we

1487
00:49:58,796 --> 00:50:01,734
re trying to get out of

1488
00:50:01,734 --> 00:50:04,670
Cdot for improvements to the

1489
00:50:04,670 --> 00:50:07,710
region, I presented, so every

1490
00:50:07,710 --> 00:50:07,939
municipality presented on um

1491
00:50:07,939 --> 00:50:09,939
different priorities that

1492
00:50:10,909 --> 00:50:12,978
either touch that I

1493
00:50:12,978 --> 00:50:15,680
municipality or or um affect

1494
00:50:15,680 --> 00:50:18,800
that municipality. And I

1495
00:50:18,830 --> 00:50:21,520
presented on behalf of uh the

1496
00:50:21,520 --> 00:50:23,389
co7 coalition. And we obviously

1497
00:50:23,389 --> 00:50:24,255
are trying to go for

1498
00:50:24,255 --> 00:50:25,324
improvement to Highway 7, I

1499
00:50:25,324 --> 00:50:26,224
mean, we

1500
00:50:26,224 --> 00:50:28,260
ve already seen the,

1501
00:50:28,260 --> 00:50:29,227
the ill and the repavement of

1502
00:50:29,227 --> 00:50:29,594
the of most of that, there

1503
00:50:29,594 --> 00:50:31,290
s

1504
00:50:31,290 --> 00:50:33,980
still a little bit, um, going

1505
00:50:33,980 --> 00:50:33,598
on a little closer, I-25 right

1506
00:50:33,598 --> 00:50:34,466
now, but we

1507
00:50:34,466 --> 00:50:36,936
re seeing a lot of

1508
00:50:36,936 --> 00:50:38,404
the fruits of that, uh, finally

1509
00:50:38,404 --> 00:50:41,404
come to fruition for our

1510
00:50:42,240 --> 00:50:44,109
community, but we are promoting,

1511
00:50:44,109 --> 00:50:45,243
uh, the bus rapid transit

1512
00:50:45,243 --> 00:50:45,644
service that will start, it

1513
00:50:45,644 --> 00:50:47,112
s

1514
00:50:47,112 --> 00:50:48,313
supposed to start sometime next

1515
00:50:48,313 --> 00:50:51,417
year, probably q1 of next year,

1516
00:50:51,417 --> 00:50:52,918
and so. That was a part of my

1517
00:50:52,918 --> 00:50:55,918
presentation to the group, um,

1518
00:50:56,821 --> 00:50:59,821
I also. Advocated for funding

1519
00:51:01,794 --> 00:51:03,929
for the uh. Upcoming uh signal

1520
00:51:03,929 --> 00:51:05,164
at Bromley and I-76, everybody

1521
00:51:05,164 --> 00:51:06,980
knows that travels that

1522
00:51:06,980 --> 00:51:07,733
especially during peak hours

1523
00:51:07,733 --> 00:51:09,501
and sometimes during not peak

1524
00:51:09,501 --> 00:51:10,169
hours that that is an

1525
00:51:10,169 --> 00:51:12,569
intersection that needs some,

1526
00:51:14,240 --> 00:51:16,675
uh, Big time improvement and we

1527
00:51:16,675 --> 00:51:17,643
got to work with ca to get

1528
00:51:17,643 --> 00:51:19,211
those improvements done and

1529
00:51:19,211 --> 00:51:21,113
part of that is uh putting up a

1530
00:51:21,113 --> 00:51:23,515
signal instead of a stop sign

1531
00:51:23,515 --> 00:51:26,351
that is not very sufficient,

1532
00:51:26,351 --> 00:51:27,953
especially during peak hours.

1533
00:51:27,953 --> 00:51:30,356
And another thing I talked

1534
00:51:30,356 --> 00:51:32,625
about was, as a city, cities

1535
00:51:32,625 --> 00:51:35,600
like Brighton and many cities

1536
00:51:35,600 --> 00:51:37,430
in in the area, we tend to do a

1537
00:51:37,430 --> 00:51:39,565
lot of Cdot right ofway

1538
00:51:39,565 --> 00:51:40,800
improvements on their behalf

1539
00:51:40,800 --> 00:51:43,200
without being compensated, and

1540
00:51:43,235 --> 00:51:44,302
so I advocated for either at

1541
00:51:44,302 --> 00:51:45,771
least some compensation for

1542
00:51:45,771 --> 00:51:46,639
that, for those right away

1543
00:51:46,639 --> 00:51:48,474
improvements which could be

1544
00:51:48,474 --> 00:51:50,109
mowing, it could be filling

1545
00:51:50,109 --> 00:51:53,446
potholes. It could be a number

1546
00:51:53,446 --> 00:51:55,348
of things. Or at least working

1547
00:51:55,348 --> 00:51:57,917
with Cdot to find solutions so

1548
00:51:57,917 --> 00:51:59,618
they get the work done that

1549
00:51:59,618 --> 00:52:01,520
they have not been very uh

1550
00:52:01,520 --> 00:52:03,210
responsive to. So that was a

1551
00:52:03,210 --> 00:52:04,424
that was a lot of that meeting

1552
00:52:04,424 --> 00:52:06,192
that I was a part of it was

1553
00:52:06,192 --> 00:52:09,792
about a 2.5 hour meeting we had

1554
00:52:10,396 --> 00:52:12,832
last week. Uh, yesterday I was

1555
00:52:12,832 --> 00:52:15,734
at the edc board meeting and a

1556
00:52:15,734 --> 00:52:17,269
lot of the discussion was about

1557
00:52:17,269 --> 00:52:19,639
uh the upcoming sunset of

1558
00:52:19,639 --> 00:52:21,241
Burrow and and trying to uh

1559
00:52:21,241 --> 00:52:22,174
create the dda that we talked

1560
00:52:22,174 --> 00:52:25,174

00:52:27,747 --> 00:52:30,750

I was there along with the city

1566
00:52:36,355 --> 00:52:36,556
manager, Martinez. There was a

1567
00:52:36,556 --> 00:52:38,556
mayor

1568
00:52:42,280 --> 00:52:42,862

1569
00:52:42,862 --> 00:52:45,862
anti-Semitism in Boulder and um,

1570
00:52:45,899 --> 00:52:47,333
we, we were actually, we

1571
00:52:47,333 --> 00:52:50,236
actually had this planned for a

1572
00:52:50,236 --> 00:52:51,671
while to have this uh. This, uh,

1573
00:52:51,671 --> 00:52:54,710

00:52:54,240 --> 00:52:55,275
until um. The attacks that

1575
00:52:55,275 --> 00:52:56,676
happened in Boulder a couple

1576
00:52:56,676 --> 00:52:58,244
weeks ago, and it turned into

1577
00:52:58,244 --> 00:53:00,513
kind of a bigger conference

1578
00:53:00,513 --> 00:53:02,415
where people came in from some

1579
00:53:02,415 --> 00:53:05,415
of the surrounding states to

1580
00:53:05,551 --> 00:53:06,753
talk about um ways to combat

1581
00:53:06,753 --> 00:53:07,854
the anti-Semitic issues that

1582
00:53:07,854 --> 00:53:11,454
have been going on across the

1583
00:53:11,725 --> 00:53:13,793
country. I was also a Brighton

1626
00:54:22,629 --> 00:54:24,630
Good evening, Mayor Mayor Pro

00:54:24,665 --> 00:54:25,565
though, we

1629
00:54:25,565 --> 00:54:27,565
re getting real

1630
00:54:27,567 --> 00:54:27,935
close, so, uh, but no, we

1631
00:54:27,935 --> 00:54:29,436
re

1632
00:54:29,436 --> 00:54:31,504
happy to report today that the

1633
00:54:31,504 --> 00:54:33,274
street lights on Main Street

1634
00:54:33,274 --> 00:54:33,840
has been stalled all the way

1635
00:54:33,840 --> 00:54:34,741
from Long

1636
00:54:34,741 --> 00:54:35,709
s Peak to Bush, and I

1637
00:54:35,709 --> 00:54:37,244
got a couple of pictures. I

1638
00:54:37,244 --> 00:54:39,580
thought, I think that one to

1639
00:54:39,580 --> 00:54:41,480
the left is a really beautiful

1640
00:54:41,480 --> 00:54:43,216
picture of downtown, and I

1641
00:54:43,216 --> 00:54:44,918
think it shows the, the each

1642
00:54:44,918 --> 00:54:46,387
individual task that is being

1643
00:54:46,387 --> 00:54:48,121
done by Borough, by Public

1644
00:54:48,121 --> 00:54:49,890
Works, and by community

1645
00:54:49,890 --> 00:54:49,323
development. I think it

1646
00:54:49,323 --> 00:54:50,691
s

1647
00:54:50,691 --> 00:54:51,324
coming, you can see it in.

1648
00:54:51,324 --> 00:54:52,159
Pictures that it

1649
00:54:52,159 --> 00:54:53,627
s a beautiful

1650
00:54:53,627 --> 00:54:53,827
place to be and we

1651
00:54:53,827 --> 00:54:55,262
re still

1652
00:54:55,262 --> 00:54:56,497
continues to work to make it

1653
00:54:56,497 --> 00:54:57,598
more beautiful. And these small,

1654
00:54:57,598 --> 00:54:59,433
these light, these street

1655
00:54:59,433 --> 00:54:59,933
lights is just one addition to

1656
00:54:59,933 --> 00:55:00,634
that, so we

1657
00:55:00,634 --> 00:55:00,935

1683
00:55:36,437 --> 00:55:36,603

Yeah, I just wanted to make

1692
00:55:52,686 --> 00:55:55,550

1693
00:55:55,550 --> 00:55:55,255
lights down Main Street bridge.

1694
00:55:55,255 --> 00:55:57,224

That is awesome. It, it, it got,

1697
00:56:00,661 --> 00:56:01,462
you can see it

1698
00:56:01,462 --> 00:56:02,630
s like taller,

1699
00:56:02,630 --> 00:56:03,964
as I understand it, and uh you

1700
00:56:03,964 --> 00:56:05,399
know, it just seemed to seemed

1701
00:56:05,399 --> 00:56:05,600
to be a lot more sturdy, but

1702
00:56:05,600 --> 00:56:06,768
they

1703
00:56:06,768 --> 00:56:07,340
re definitely taller, I

1704
00:56:07,340 --> 00:56:07,301

00:56:18,679 --> 00:56:21,679

1713
00:56:25,353 --> 00:56:28,353
Moving ahead, updates by our

1718
00:56:31,558 --> 00:56:33,558
m not

1719
00:56:36,998 --> 00:56:38,365
announcing that. All right, um,

1720
00:56:38,365 --> 00:56:41,365
uh, updates from our city

1721
00:56:41,635 --> 00:56:42,870
manager. Just one quick one, we

1722
00:56:42,870 --> 00:56:44,806
had a wonderful concert planned

1723
00:56:44,806 --> 00:56:46,474
for this Friday at Founders

1724
00:56:46,474 --> 00:56:48,800
Plaza, Chicano Heat, which is

1725
00:56:48,800 --> 00:56:49,410
pretty popular band here in the

1726
00:56:49,410 --> 00:56:49,910
Denver metro area.

1727
00:56:49,910 --> 00:56:51,879
Unfortunately, it

1728
00:56:51,879 --> 00:56:53,280
s gonna be

1729
00:56:53,280 --> 00:56:55,216
about 100 degrees and myself,

1730
00:56:55,216 --> 00:56:57,185
our parks and rec director and

1731
00:56:57,185 --> 00:56:58,119
our deputy city manager went

1732
00:56:58,119 --> 00:57:00,121
over to founders yesterday, and

1733
00:57:00,121 --> 00:57:01,555
we took an infrared thermometer

1734
00:57:01,555 --> 00:57:01,723
to the pavement, pretty hot.

1735
00:57:01,723 --> 00:57:03,900
It

1736
00:57:03,900 --> 00:57:03,958
s uh well over 110 degrees

1737
00:57:03,958 --> 00:57:05,894
on the pavement, so, and that

1738
00:57:05,894 --> 00:57:08,296
was With cloud cover at 90

1739
00:57:08,296 --> 00:57:09,697
degrees, so we had to

1740
00:57:09,697 --> 00:57:12,970
unfortunately make the decision

1741
00:57:12,100 --> 00:57:12,767
to move that concert from

1742
00:57:12,767 --> 00:57:13,601
founders to Carmichael. So it

1743
00:57:13,601 --> 00:57:15,601

00:57:15,637 --> 00:57:16,971
still on, but in a much cooler

1745
00:57:16,971 --> 00:57:18,390
place, so if you were planning

1746
00:57:18,390 --> 00:57:18,907
on attending, that

1747
00:57:18,907 --> 00:57:19,111

Rolosky. Thank you, Mayor. Well,

1839
00:59:44,286 --> 00:59:44,497
The gory details from the wreck.

1840
00:59:44,497 --> 00:59:45,588
There

1841
00:59:45,588 --> 00:59:48,490
s no garage. They are not

1842
00:59:48,490 --> 00:59:49,625
gory at all. They

1843
00:59:49,625 --> 00:59:49,825
re great,

1844
00:59:49,825 --> 00:59:51,260
they

1845
00:59:51,260 --> 00:59:51,527
re a great group. They

1846
00:59:51,527 --> 00:59:53,362
re

1847
00:59:53,362 --> 00:59:55,497
a great group. Now I did bring

1848
00:59:55,497 --> 00:59:57,299
up a challenge to them because

1849
00:59:57,299 --> 00:59:59,134
I, uh, had the unfortune of

1850
00:59:59,134 --> 01:00:02,734
having to attend a funeral at

1851
01:00:03,380 --> 01:00:04,373
the Elmwood Cemetery. And years

1852
01:00:04,373 --> 01:00:07,373
ago when Elmwood was quite

1853
01:00:08,770 --> 01:00:09,244
young back 40 years ago we made

1854
01:00:09,244 --> 01:00:11,790
the decision or the decision

1855
01:00:11,790 --> 01:00:12,948
was made to plant trees along

1856
01:00:12,948 --> 01:00:14,149
the highway to try to block out

1857
01:00:14,149 --> 01:00:17,749
the noise that was was coming

1858
01:00:17,920 --> 01:00:18,721
off of the roadway. Well, it

1859
01:00:18,721 --> 01:00:21,121
ended up this particular

1860
01:00:21,990 --> 01:00:23,425
service that I was at. Those

1861
01:00:23,425 --> 01:00:25,600
trees are not doing any good at

1862
01:00:25,600 --> 01:00:26,362
all, so I asked the Parks and

1863
01:00:26,362 --> 01:00:27,996
Rec folks if they would please

1864
01:00:27,996 --> 01:00:29,932
look at is there something they

1865
01:00:29,932 --> 01:00:32,168
can bring in when someone does

1866
01:00:32,168 --> 01:00:33,702
a graveside service that can

1867
01:00:33,702 --> 01:00:35,700
filter out or block that noise

1868
01:00:35,700 --> 01:00:35,304
so they can, because you

1869
01:00:35,304 --> 01:00:36,506
couldn

1870
01:00:36,506 --> 01:00:36,672
t hear the minister, you

1871
01:00:36,672 --> 01:00:37,272
can

1872
01:00:37,272 --> 01:00:37,379
t hear people speak. It

1873
01:00:37,379 --> 01:00:39,379
s

1874
01:00:40,709 --> 01:00:42,745
just I mean, the trucks now

1875
01:00:42,745 --> 01:00:42,855
that are long 85 or just, it

1876
01:00:42,855 --> 01:00:43,679
s

1877
01:00:43,679 --> 01:00:43,880
unbelievable. So anyway,

1878
01:00:43,880 --> 01:00:44,714
they

1879
01:00:44,714 --> 01:00:45,480
re, they

1880
01:00:45,480 --> 01:00:46,715
re taking that

1881
01:00:46,715 --> 01:00:48,510
challenge and, and I very much

1882
01:00:48,510 --> 01:00:48,984
appreciate that, being able to

1883
01:00:48,984 --> 01:00:49,185
be done because it

1884
01:00:49,185 --> 01:00:49,297
s, it

1885
01:00:49,297 --> 01:00:51,297
s

1886
01:00:53,422 --> 01:00:54,924
highly needed. Um, I also had a

1887
01:00:54,924 --> 01:00:55,825
4 hour e470 board meeting that

1888
01:00:55,825 --> 01:00:58,825
included me handing out checks,

1889
01:00:59,896 --> 01:01:02,331
uh. More than $20,000 worth of

1890
01:01:02,331 --> 01:01:05,331
checks to groups that actually

1891
01:01:05,835 --> 01:01:09,435
they promote um. Uh, car seats

1892
01:01:10,639 --> 01:01:14,110
for kids and also. Uh, provide.

1893
01:01:14,110 --> 01:01:16,450
Hopefully some means of of

1894
01:01:16,450 --> 01:01:16,646
monetary value to students who

1895
01:01:16,646 --> 01:01:17,413
are doing driver

1896
01:01:17,413 --> 01:01:19,813
s ed, so it,

1897
01:01:20,316 --> 01:01:22,510
it was, it was, like I said, it

1898
01:01:22,510 --> 01:01:25,510
was really very great meeting.

1899
01:01:26,890 --> 01:01:28,580
Um, And then I attended last

1900
01:01:28,580 --> 01:01:29,559
Friday night I attended the

1901
01:01:29,559 --> 01:01:30,927
meeting out at uh the Adams

1902
01:01:30,927 --> 01:01:32,862
County Building regarding the

1903
01:01:32,862 --> 01:01:35,264
expansion or work on Sable

1904
01:01:35,264 --> 01:01:36,833
Boulevard. It was interesting

1905
01:01:36,833 --> 01:01:38,367
because I think I was the only

1906
01:01:38,367 --> 01:01:38,835
councilperson there. I know

1907
01:01:38,835 --> 01:01:39,435
Marv Falconberry, he

1908
01:01:39,435 --> 01:01:41,435
s not back

1909
01:01:41,604 --> 01:01:44,700
there now. He was, he attended,

1910
01:01:44,700 --> 01:01:44,206
but honestly, you guys, they

1911
01:01:44,206 --> 01:01:44,774
didn

1912
01:01:44,774 --> 01:01:47,510
t expect the turnout they

1913
01:01:47,510 --> 01:01:49,478
got. They had to move to from

1914
01:01:49,478 --> 01:01:51,800
one big room to a bigger,

1915
01:01:51,800 --> 01:01:53,416
bigger room. There were so many

1916
01:01:53,416 --> 01:01:54,918
people there, but overall it

1917
01:01:54,918 --> 01:01:56,552
was very well attended, I think

1918
01:01:56,552 --> 01:01:57,187
people got a lot of questions

1919
01:01:57,187 --> 01:02:00,787
answered so I thought it was

1920
01:02:02,492 --> 01:02:04,861
very good. And then, pardon?

1921
01:02:04,861 --> 01:02:06,162
There was a little anti in it,

1922
01:02:06,162 --> 01:02:09,399
but when they went through and

1923
01:02:09,399 --> 01:02:10,833
saw what Common sense was going

1924
01:02:10,833 --> 01:02:12,635
to be taking place. They were

1925
01:02:12,635 --> 01:02:14,537
very much more accepting. Yeah,

1926
01:02:14,537 --> 01:02:18,137
no, they, it was pretty much

1927
01:02:18,374 --> 01:02:19,809
anti, I would say the majority.

1928
01:02:19,809 --> 01:02:21,778
Anyway, um, the other thing

1929
01:02:21,778 --> 01:02:23,680
that was great was today the

1930
01:02:23,680 --> 01:02:24,747
ribbon cutting at Brighton at

1931
01:02:24,747 --> 01:02:26,283
Brighton Benedict Park, you

1932
01:02:26,283 --> 01:02:28,510
know, the Benedict was our

1933
01:02:28,510 --> 01:02:30,487
original park back in the day,

1934
01:02:30,487 --> 01:02:32,522
and I told the story there

1935
01:02:32,522 --> 01:02:32,889
today too that when we came to

1936
01:02:32,889 --> 01:02:34,824
Brighton in

1937
01:02:34,824 --> 01:02:36,259
67, that was the

1938
01:02:36,259 --> 01:02:37,393
only part that existed when I

1939
01:02:37,393 --> 01:02:39,763
got on the parks board because

1940
01:02:39,763 --> 01:02:41,765
at that time all ofverver parks

1941
01:02:41,765 --> 01:02:43,533
so we had to wait and once we

1942
01:02:43,533 --> 01:02:45,102
got recreation to make it a

1943
01:02:45,102 --> 01:02:46,102
parks and recreation board, so

1944
01:02:46,102 --> 01:02:46,214
anyway, over the years I

1945
01:02:46,214 --> 01:02:48,214
ve

1946
01:02:48,338 --> 01:02:48,505
seen so much happening. Changes.

1947
01:02:48,505 --> 01:02:49,839
It

1948
01:02:49,839 --> 01:02:51,475
s been wonderful, but it, it

1949
01:02:51,475 --> 01:02:52,709
was so great to have this

1950
01:02:52,709 --> 01:02:54,478
ribbon cutting to make the

1951
01:02:54,478 --> 01:02:56,146
official opening of the park

1952
01:02:56,146 --> 01:02:57,213
because, oh my gosh, if any of

1953
01:02:57,213 --> 01:02:59,583
you have not been by there, you

1954
01:02:59,583 --> 01:03:01,518

t deal with a bunch of

2063
01:05:57,295 --> 01:05:58,663

t even believe the price

2071
01:06:04,602 --> 01:06:06,470
you pay for the quality of

2072
01:06:06,470 --> 01:06:06,580
entertainment. So, um, And I

01:06:06,580 --> 01:06:07,772

2085
01:06:26,991 --> 01:06:28,360
safer. It is so much more

2086
01:06:28,360 --> 01:06:29,293
amazing to drive on it. So

2087
01:06:29,293 --> 01:06:30,696
