[0:00] All right, good evening and welcome to the 5 p.m. Tulsa City Council meeting. We apologize for

[0:16] the delay, but it was beyond our control. So you can view this meeting on our Facebook page, our

[0:24] YouTube channel, caught's channel 24, or at tgov online.org. Assisting the Council tonight is a

[0:32] Caroline Garo Wolf, and Lori Doring, Secretary and Bailey Rogers Council staff. If you wish to speak on

[0:40] an agenda item, please see Bailey to complete a request to speak card prior to that item being read,

[0:46] you will not be allowed to speak after the item has been read. Please join us in pledging allegiance

[0:51] to our flag of our country and remain standing for a moment of silence.

[1:22] All right, it is my understanding. I don't think they're here this evening. Are they are? Okay,

[1:33] elementary students. McKinley? Yes. You want to come up tonight or come up to the microphone and tell us,

[1:44] give us your name and why you're here? What's going on this school, even though you haven't started yet?

[1:55] Hello, everyone. My name is Alyssa Perez and I go to McKinley and I am here to discuss what

[2:04] I have done this year as a student council member.

[2:15] Good afternoon. I am here to represent the fifth grade student council of the McKinley Elementary

[2:23] School here in Tulsa. I would like to share some projects in accomplishments. I, on my behalf,

[2:32] and the student council members are proud of. One of our most important projects you did this year

[2:45] was the kindness council initiative. We encourage students to show kindness through their words and

[2:53] actions every day. This initiative helps create a more welcoming and supportive school

[3:02] environment. We help recognize students who demonstrated positive characteristics and act of kindness.

[3:13] Another thing I would like to, another project I would like to announce was listening to student

[3:22] voice about bowling because that was one of the problems that most Tulsa Public Schools struggles with

[3:31] and me and the other members had discussed. That was one of the main problems that we wanted to

[3:38] solve that year in this past year. We gathered feedback from students about how bullying affects our

[3:46] school community. We share student perspectives with school leaders to help create a safer,

[3:54] more inclusive environment. This project taught us the importance of advocacy and standing up for others.

[4:03] Another project we did was our student lead morning announcements. We brought back engaging

[4:18] and informative student lead morning announcements. The announcements included going news,

[4:26] celebrations, reminders, and motivational messages for students and the staff of our school.

[4:34] Students had opportunities to practice public speaking and leadership skills. We as a team thought that

[4:42] it would be a great idea to help students learn about the traditions at our school and it really helped

[4:50] students wake up in the morning. We also really loved building

[5:04] cultural connections. We identified the importance of helping all students feel represented and included.

[5:12] We explored ways to celebrate the diverse cultures and backgrounds within our school community.

[5:18] We promoted respect, understanding, and appreciation for the experiences of others. Our goal

[5:25] was to help every student feel seen valued and connected.

[5:34] And we actually met with one of you guys. We welcomed city representatives and community leaders to our

[5:46] school and showed them around. These visits allowed us to learn more about civic leadership

[5:53] and community involvement. We proudly shared the accomplishments and strength of our school

[6:00] with visitors. We helped build strong connections between our school and the larger community.

[6:08] As our student council, we held our monthly character assemblies.

[6:17] Student council members helped facilitate monthly character education assemblies.

[6:23] We highlighted important character traits, shed as respect, responsibility, kindness, integrity,

[6:30] and perseverance. We recognized students who demonstrated positive character throughout the month.

[6:37] These assemblies encouraged students to be positive role models. And we thought that it would

[6:44] really help the students with what they coming from another student. We really really loved

[6:58] this project, which was a community food drive partnership. Student council organized a food drive

[7:05] and partnership with the Tulsa Daciner. Students, families, and staff work together to collect

[7:12] donations for individuals and families in need. Throughout this project, we learned a value of

[7:18] service and compassion. We were proud to support our community through collective action.

[7:26] And as our student council and on our behalf, one of not one of the most important one was

[7:35] volunteering at the Eastern Oklahoma Food Bank. Student council members volunteered

[7:41] at the Eastern Oklahoma Food Bank. We learned about food insecurity and how organizations

[7:53] help families throughout our region. Together, we helped package more than 4,000 pounds of food

[8:00] for this fusion within the community. This experience showed us how even young leaders can

[8:07] make a meaningful impact to our community. That's also a good job.

[8:25] If you guys can give it up for her mom had to walk out with the baby so she wasn't able to hear her

[8:29] but as her former teacher and it makes me sad to say that, I'm her former teacher and her former

[8:37] student council leader. I am extremely proud not only of her but of all of our members. It was very

[8:43] hard and the summer to get all the students together and I just wanted to make sure to give them

[8:49] an opportunity for you guys to see and the community to see that she will be great. No matter what,

[8:56] I have no doubt in my mind, she will be great and it was an absolute pleasure to teach her amongst

[9:02] the other students this year. And in closing, I just wanted to let the community know and our council

[9:09] members know that I was able to not only teach them in the classroom but to foster that leadership skill

[9:18] and show them that it's not just a title. It's about your service, your work, your responsibility,

[9:24] and actually helping others. Their kindness initiatives, our community service fundraising,

[9:30] student advocacy and civic engagement. We all, my team and I, which was myself cloned about five

[9:36] different times. We worked hard to make positive differences in our school and we are looking forward to

[9:43] making the changes in the community. I and our student council member, she was our actual

[9:49] secretary because she interviewed with me for the part and said, I love to talk. So I said, I can use that.

[9:58] We are extremely grateful for this opportunity to not only serve our city and hope that our work

[10:03] inspires future student leaders to continue making a lasting impact. Thank you so much for supporting

[10:09] us, Councillor Dunn, and the rest of the city council members and our fifth grade student council. I'm

[10:15] actually believing in the power of student leadership. Thank you so much.

[10:25] I just want to say thank you, Ms. Candy. I am so glad I got to tour the facility, meet with you,

[10:33] meet with student council. You are truly amazing as were the other council members and I'm

[10:40] excited to see you go forth at the Tulsa Honor Academy, correct? Oh, you're going to cover!

[10:49] Good for you! Good for you! Well, I look forward to more participation from you in the future with city

[10:57] council and municipal events. I also look forward to meeting again now that the new school year is about

[11:04] to start and getting to know the council members that will be representing McKenley. I'm grateful

[11:11] for you and McKenley to be in my district. This is so exciting. We didn't have student council when I was

[11:17] in elementary school. So this is phenomenal to give them a leg up and get going. So I want to present to

[11:25] you these challenge coins. I know that we had given some in the past, but I also have another win.

[11:33] And I want to bring to the school that you can pass out to the other kids, the other students that have

[11:39] gone on now. Anyway, congratulations and thank you so much and I'm so proud of you. Carver is going

[11:47] to benefit greatly from having you there. Thank you, Ms. Candy.

[11:53] And just so you don't know one last thing. She's not only a parent in the community.

[11:59] They were a leader in Tulsa Public Schools district. We had the highest test scores in the district

[12:04] for fifth grade. So she's not only a champion in the community. She's a champion in the classroom as well.

[12:53] What more? One, two, three. Here we go. Thank you.

[13:23] All right, announcements. People wishing to speak on an agenda item are limited to five minutes,

[13:49] total permitting public input as a time for members of the public to provide insight on the

[13:55] agenda item due to meeting format. Public input is not a time for question and answer period. All

[15:00] All right. One receipt of filing and minutes, there are no items this week. Two appointments and re-appointments. A, Athena laws appointment to the sales tax overview committee.

[15:18] B, a sorry, Jimerson appointment to the Parks and Recreation Board, Gilchryse Board of Trustees. C, Morgan Jones appointment to the HUD community development committee.

[15:31] Reep and I don't need to know who she's replacing.

[15:34] All right. Do we have any speakers?

[15:37] Actually Athena is here to speak about her appointment.

[15:40] Okay. Good evening. I just wanted to come back and say thank you to my community. Thank you to

[15:48] the councilman that met me last week and voted for me to take this opportunity. I wanted to thank

[15:57] Miss Shirley Williams and my neighborhood. She invited me and encouraged me to get a part of my city and be a part of

[16:04] the neighborhood academy. She was pushing me to do that. So I graduated from that and when I

[16:12] graduated from that council harbour, hall harbour invited us to apply and I'm here. So I just wanted

[16:19] to say thank you to everyone in the community. And I look forward to serving and to one my very best.

[16:26] Thank you. Thank you. Any other, are there any other speakers? Yes, we have Mr. John Huffines for items

[16:36] to a B&C. Yes, I'm glad to be with you on this fifth day of August in this beautiful city of

[16:51] love Tulsa in this beautiful nation under God the USA in the year of our living Lord Jesus Christ

[16:57] 2,026 appointments and we have appointments. Yes, Athena Laws. Oh, Marie, Jimerson and Morgan Jones may we

[17:06] continue to be grateful for these volunteers. Thank you. Thank you, Mr. refined. Next speaker, please.

[17:13] Our next speaker is James Taylor for item 2 B. I was in student council in 5th grade 2.

[17:26] This is what it turns into. Today you're being asked to approve another appointment to the Tulsa

[17:30] Park's Board. Before doing that, I asked you to first examine the standards of accountability for the

[17:35] board itself. The Tulsa Parks Board are appointed stewards of taxpayer owned parks and public land.

[17:41] Yet today they operate with no publicly available governing policies, no meaningful attendance expectations,

[17:47] no observable term limits, questionable conflict of interest safeguards, and increasingly limited

[17:53] opportunities for the public to participate in decisions affecting property the taxpayers already own.

[18:00] Let's start with attendance. Shane Fernanda is was allowed to miss 12 of his last 13 meetings.

[18:05] The only meeting he attended during that period was the special meeting where he seconded the chair's

[18:10] motion to abandon Rodden Park. Chair Susan Savage's own text message to city admin

[18:16] and mayoral Designee Park's board member Mike Miller states that the same criteria used to abandon

[18:21] those seven acres in North Tulsa were used to justify abandoning another two and a half acres in

[18:27] New Block Park. Mr. Miller also serves as the supervisor of parks director on America

[18:33] whose recommendations come before the very board on which he votes. Whether or not an actual conflict

[18:38] exists, the appearance alone demands public scrutiny. The people of Tulsa should never have to question

[18:44] whether decisions about their parks are being made independently and in the public's best interest.

[18:50] Back to attendance Tulsa City Code recognizes that attendance matters by allowing appointed board

[18:55] members to be removed for repeatedly missing meetings. Yet the parks board is specifically

[19:01] exempted from those attendance standards. Why should the board entrusted with some of Tulsa's most

[19:06] valuable public assets be held to a lower standard than every other city board? The same lack of

[19:12] accountability exists with board tenure. Theresa Burkett has served since June 9, 2011 that's over 15

[19:20] years. There are no observable term limits. Public boards benefit from fresh perspectives

[19:26] independent oversight and regular opportunities for newly appointed citizens to serve.

[19:31] The public's ability to participate is also being diminished. I understand there have been discussions

[19:37] about further limiting public comment on agenda items. Public parks belong to the people

[19:43] and the public should never have fewer opportunities to speak about decisions affecting land they already

[19:48] own. Perhaps most concerning the board cannot produce the policies that supposedly govern its own actions.

[19:55] The parks board is operating without publicly adopted governing policies.

[19:59] Until recently the city's website published a policy and procedure manual that was never approved

[20:05] by the parks board or the council. No one could tell me who wrote it or explained how it became the

[20:09] city's published guidance. I was then told those policies are now being presented back to the board

[20:15] one section at a time as to not overwhelm the board by reviewing them all at once. Over the last two

[20:21] park board meetings I have repeatedly requested one simple act of accountability to produce every

[20:26] policy governing the board's decisions and actions. They have failed to produce even a single document.

[20:32] To quote a board approved rules and red document from 1994 a policy manual is valuable in

[20:38] eliminating potential problems that may arise when new board members are becoming acquainted with

[20:43] the department and with their duties as board members. A board responsible for overseeing hundreds of

[20:49] millions of dollars in public assets should welcome accountability not avoid it. It should have

[20:54] enforceable attendance standards, reasonable term limits, publicly adopted policies,

[20:59] clear conflict of interest protections, and robust public participation. Approving another

[21:05] appointment without first strengthening the structure of accountability does not solve any problems.

[21:10] It simply adds another person to a system that lacks meaningful oversight. I respectfully ask this

[21:16] counsel to delay this appointment until the public can be assured that the Tulsa Parks Board

[21:21] will be governed by the same principles of transparency, accountability and public trust that you would

[21:27] expect from every other board serving the people of Tulsa. We can't appoint our way out of a

[21:33] governance problem and until this board has enforceable standards another appointment isn't leadership.

[21:39] It's simply an endorsement of a system that asks for public trust while refusing public accountability.

[21:46] The people of Tulsa deserve a park's board that is accountable to the public, not simply appointed

[21:51] by the government. Before I leave, I will serve a notice of statutory non-compliance,

[21:56] documenting the park's boards failure to maintain and produce the governing policies required by

[22:02] Oklahoma law. Every member of this council will receive it so well-city legal, the city clerk,

[22:08] the media, and the Oklahoma Attorney General's Open Government Unit. The public record now reflects

[22:15] that these concerns have been formally noticed. Thank you.

[22:21] Bailey is that the last speaker? They're no more speakers. All right. Is there a council discussion?

[22:27] Oh, chair. I just wanted to clarify real quick for folks that I'm sorry I pulled up the

[22:36] charter just real quick related to the parks board, which is a recommending and advisory body.

[22:42] I'm in just to add a layer of clarification and people of course can review materials and

[22:49] do follow-up questions, but basically the parks department, as part of InterStrong-Mere Government,

[22:55] is governed and administered by the mayor's office, and so that includes for, you know, the parks

[23:01] board may recommend something. It will modify certain plans for a construction or improvement, but that

[23:05] still has to pen is pending mayoral approval, and then for anything related to dollars being allocated,

[23:11] fees being changed, any recommendation related to a city park, playground, et cetera,

[23:19] has to go through the city council. And so there is those key oversight layers of our governing

[23:24] bodies, so I just want to clarify that, everybody. Okay, thank you. Are there council discussion?

[23:31] I moved to approve items to A through C. Second. Please hold the roll.

[23:40] Councillor Denton? Yes. Councillor Bellis? Yes. Councillor Gilbert? Yes. Councillor Bangle? Yes.

[23:46] Councillor Dector, right? Yes. Councillor Laken? Yes. Councillor Bush? Yes. Councillor Hall harbour? Yes.

[23:51] Councillor Archi? Yes. Okay. Um, items to A through two C are approved, any other appointees here tonight?

[24:02] All right. Would you like to say anything else after your approval? No. No. Okay. All right.

[24:13] I just wanted to give you the opportunity. So, all right. Moving on, item number three, public

[24:19] hearing three, a public hearing to receive comments from citizens regarding a proposed ordinance

[24:24] closing a certain portion of a alley in vertical airspace located at 316 East Second Street, Tulsa,

[24:32] original town. Is there a motion to enter public hearing? I moved to enter public hearing. Second,

[24:38] please call the roll. Councillor Denton? Yes. Councillor Bellis? Yes. Councillor Gilbert? Yes.

[24:44] Councillor Bangle? Yes. Councillor Dector, right? Yes. Councillor Laken? Yes. Councillor Bush? Yes.

[24:49] Councillor Hall harbour? Yes. Councillor Archi? Yes. Do we have any speakers?

[24:55] We have one speaker, Chris Armstrong, for item three A.

[25:06] Hello. My name is Chris Armstrong and my wife, Joe and I own Arnie's bar, the Blue Dome,

[25:12] 325 South, Elgin, 202 South, Elgin and 318 East, Second Street. The alley that is being addressed

[25:19] is, we do not really know much information. It just has partial closing of that alley.

[25:24] H&M pipe bending has been there for over 100 years. There are neighbors. They have a loading dock

[25:28] in that alley, as well as we do on our new building at 202 South, Elgin. I say new. It's been there for

[25:32] two and a half years now, two years, but it's also access to our property. I don't know much about

[25:39] what they're wanting to close. I just know it's going to create a hardship for the neighbouring

[25:44] businesses as well as American parking because American parking has access to that alley. That's how

[25:48] people get into their parking a lot. We would not receive any information about this other than to show

[25:52] up this meeting to make a comment. That's why we're here. Most of the buildings that we have have been

[25:58] over there for over 100 years and I just don't understand why I knew building the use of a new building

[26:05] constitutes a new addition to closing a public space, which is taxpayer dollars. So that's

[26:10] my only comment, but just like some more information, but we have not received any. Thank you for your room.

[26:16] Thank you. Councillor Bellis. I'm glad you came to ask. I can definitely see why when you read the

[26:22] language, I can cause a alarm about closing an alley that so many folks use to clarify and we're discussing

[26:29] this in committee earlier in downtown. A lot of the buildings, of course, are older and are

[26:35] using included and the doors swing outward, which is against code. There's this swing inward, but to

[26:41] not force people to do costly repairs. What we do in situations where the doors swing outward by design

[26:48] is the K where the door will swing outward too, which obviously that's just an impermanent situation. So

[26:54] this is just permitting that to go on. I know I will flag and this may be a question for engineering

[27:01] that they were going to put something at a certain height that wouldn't be blocking the alley,

[27:06] but I don't know if that would affect the clearance. I'm just mentioning that's my call. Do you

[27:10] go remember that from the discussion where they were maybe it was an awning or something? I'm trying to

[27:14] remember what it was. No, so it was no awnings. Okay. Okay. Yeah, nothing should be actually directly

[27:22] blocking the alley and I can try to find and follow up and send you all that there are policies about

[27:29] you can't just have the door open and perpetuity, right? Someone can't just keep it blocking the alley.

[27:33] This doesn't create that, so you all should still have regular use of it and totally fear that the

[27:38] language may have made you concerned. Yeah. No, absolutely this shouldn't prohibit that. Yeah,

[27:50] Bailey and the other speakers? They're no more speakers. All right. Without objection, we will exit

[27:56] public hearings for mayor's items for a report from the mayor or his designate on community events,

[28:03] briefing on city activity, city efforts and new business. Good evening, Kelly. I'm sorry.

[28:09] Can you follow the bill, public advocate, Mayor's office, city of Tulsa?

[28:15] I didn't forget my report tonight. Sorry about that, I'm sorry about that. I will always be in

[28:21] bearish forever about that. Okay. I'm just going to read to you. I think our student probably does a

[28:27] better job speaking in public than me. So I should took some notes and I'm going to try to do better.

[28:33] she was so excellent. Yes, she was. The Tulsa Global Alliance won the best overall

[28:39] program award at the sister city's 26 annual award in Washington, DC. I think that's great.

[28:47] It's the fourth time Tulsa has taken home this award in this 50th anniversary year for the program.

[28:54] We compete with hundreds of programs from around the world and the Tulsa Global Alliance represents

[28:59] us tremendously on the global stage. See I told you she does better at speaking than I do so.

[29:06] That's great news. I used to work on this program 15, 15 years ago. I'm so glad it's still going

[29:12] and it's getting better so this is so great to see. We should be so honored here in Tulsa.

[29:18] We have two new official Main Street programs. Councillor Bellis, I've seen this announced

[29:23] through the city and through the council. We've got the sobo district which I think is South Boston

[29:30] is what that stands for and Pearl Main Street. The official designation capitalizes on all of the

[29:36] investment ports into these neighborhoods to connect them with more resources to strengthen historic

[29:41] commercial districts. This brings I think a total of six for the city of Tulsa's great programs and so

[29:47] happy to see and we got two new ones. August is clear the shelters month for our animal services

[29:54] and adoption fees will be waived by animal services here in Tulsa throughout August.

[30:00] Every animal will still go home with the high level of care and preparation, typical of Tulsa experience, including spain,

[30:06] neutering, vaccinations, microchips, and heartworm prevention. We encourage Tulsons to visit our shelters, take advantage of the fee waivers,

[30:15] and bring home a new family member at this month. So go get that brand new pet. I've adopted Barry from Animal Services, and I just don't know what I would do without him.

[30:25] And I'm not sure anybody else would have the patience for him. He's a character.

[30:30] Love him dearly.

[30:32] Finally, we have some terrific community events coming up at the end of the week on Friday at 9.30am.

[30:39] We will have a short program followed by a summer celebration at Fred Johnson Park in Council of District 9.

[30:46] That's going to be at 61st and Riverside. There'll be refreshments and activities for all ages.

[30:53] Construction is beginning this summer to include an all new walking trails, several courts, a splash pad, playground, dog park, state features, and more.

[31:02] So that's exciting as well.

[31:06] This one's near and dear to my heart. On Friday, August 7th, this coming Friday, we're going to have a, there's a street honorary sign ceremony,

[31:16] Pine Empioria at 245 for Dwayne, Majet.

[31:21] So if you guys are available, please join us.

[31:24] The family has sent out information about that city. We haven't posted an info, but that's coming.

[31:31] We should get that out publicly. Well, we'll get that out by tomorrow.

[31:34] But Friday, 245, Pine Empioria, we're going to be on this south west corner. You'll see everybody.

[31:42] If you can make it, please join us so we can honor Dwayne.

[31:46] We miss him dearly here at the city.

[31:48] All right, you guys have a lovely night. I'll see you here in a few minutes from the start of two left.

[31:54] Councillor Dutton.

[31:56] Don't leave yet. Just ma'am.

[31:58] So I have a question pertaining to the last presentation.

[32:02] The mayor's items that you presented two weeks ago.

[32:05] Yes.

[32:06] Has there been any further discussion about cooling stations as we are getting right back into triple digits?

[32:13] And I think with all the great things going on in the city, I think this is a consideration that has to be taken seriously as well.

[32:22] And I haven't heard anything further.

[32:25] And it's great all of these things that you just announced.

[32:28] But I think it would also be great a benefit to community if we could have more cooling stations.

[32:36] Sure. So I think it's the same cooling stations.

[32:39] Those will be posted on our website.

[32:41] And they're all downtown.

[32:43] These are donations. These are private organizations opening their doors for this.

[32:47] So if you know organizations that would love to collaborate with us, please let us know.

[32:51] And we can work with them and especially in the other districts, right?

[32:55] To your point of, you know, we would love that to be spread out through the city.

[32:59] So I'm sure the mayor staff would love to hear from anybody who would like to collaborate.

[33:04] We can add to the list.

[33:06] And then of course, just to remind our libraries, our public spaces, those are open.

[33:10] And we would encourage people to utilize that space as well.

[33:13] And don't we fund the day center?

[33:17] Councillor, I don't want to provide any wrong information.

[33:20] But if you want to get me specific questions, I'll get you some answers.

[33:23] Okay.

[33:24] I think Councillor Dector, right?

[33:26] Thank you. I have concerns too, especially as we know.

[33:29] There's at least 11 apartment complexes in our community that are not providing adequate air conditioning.

[33:36] We're getting different complaints.

[33:38] So they definitely need to be around the city.

[33:41] I understand the donation part.

[33:43] I'm hearing as if we know community partners to go ahead and connect them to who in the mayor's office.

[33:48] That would be the mayor's senior aid, Emily Hall specifically.

[33:52] I think it'd be really great.

[33:53] But any of us, okay, you connect us.

[33:55] We'll get that collaboration going.

[33:57] Can you also inquire about the city own facilities like the parks department, the community centers?

[34:02] Yeah, sure.

[34:03] The six park is definitely closer to our community than downtown.

[34:07] And again, as I've always last time, if I'm a senior citizen or somebody with a young family living in southeast Tulsa,

[34:14] my first instinct is not to go to the day center because I don't have adequate air conditioning.

[34:19] But if that's who's volunteered, then certainly we can look to our faith community partners.

[34:24] But I do think there are some park facilities outside of downtown that probably should be made available if they're already.

[34:35] Absolutely.

[34:36] We can.

[34:37] I was wearing my mic cut.

[34:39] That's my special powers.

[34:41] Sorry.

[34:42] No, we're just the best and the best mother go.

[34:45] But I think the purpose of you coming to report on for a is to do rat backs to the things that we bring up.

[34:51] Yeah sure.

[34:52] And unfortunately you're in the seat that gets to do that.

[34:55] But I see our staff also taking note.

[34:58] So hopefully we get some more clarity on that before another week goes by.

[35:03] I'll follow up by email as well.

[35:04] You got it.

[35:05] You got it.

[35:06] Okay.

[35:07] Thank you.

[35:08] Okay.

[35:09] Hold on.

[35:10] Councillor Bangle.

[35:11] You brought up animal.

[35:13] No, I'm forced to share this.

[35:17] I think folks might remember that I adopted or not adopted my goodness.

[35:22] Yeah.

[35:23] Let me.

[35:24] Thank you for adopting.

[35:25] I fostered a family of kittens.

[35:31] The mother and five babies.

[35:33] And we kept two of them.

[35:35] JJ and meatball.

[35:37] And they're very much named appropriately.

[35:39] So meatball is a terrorist.

[35:41] He's into everything.

[35:43] He's so adorable though.

[35:45] And then JJ has been sick his entire life.

[35:48] He's got a cold right now.

[35:50] And so my wife is just in love with this cat.

[35:54] Because she's just had to take care of it since it's since we've had it.

[35:59] And so when Kerry was talking about clear the shelters and the waiver of fees.

[36:06] I think there were some numbers shared recently on people taking advantage of that.

[36:12] And there were very significant the number of cats and the number of dogs that were rescued the shelter.

[36:18] Again, just by this experience alone, I would recommend if you have room and you have, you know, kids with energy.

[36:27] Great things to kind of direct their energy to.

[36:31] So if you can support the shelter, please do.

[36:35] I concur.

[36:36] Thank you.

[36:37] Thank you.

[36:38] Okay.

[36:39] Thanks.

[36:40] Do we have any speakers on this mayor's report?

[36:43] There are no speakers.

[36:45] Okay.

[36:46] So I'm going to read a couple of the items separately.

[36:51] Item 4B will be the first one for be resolution approving issuance of indebtedness in an amount.

[36:59] Not to exceed two million dollars by the Tulsa Authority for economic opportunity.

[37:04] By issuance of its promissory note and other evidence of indebtedness.

[37:09] In connection with the authorities loan from the John D. Catherine T.

[37:14] MacArthur Foundation for a program-related investment loan regarding the equitable housing demonstration project.

[37:23] This carries the emergency clause. Do we have any speakers on this item?

[37:27] There are no speakers.

[37:29] Sir council discussion.

[37:31] Move to approve items for just for being.

[37:35] Only for being.

[37:37] Only for being.

[37:38] Okay, move to approve item for being with the emergency clause.

[37:41] Second.

[37:42] Please call the roll.

[37:43] Councillor.

[37:44] Yes.

[37:45] Councillor Bellis.

[37:46] Yes.

[37:47] Councillor Gilbert.

[37:49] Councillor Bangle.

[37:50] Yes.

[37:51] Councillor Dr. Wright.

[37:52] Yes.

[37:53] Councillor Laken.

[37:54] Yes.

[37:55] Councillor Harker.

[37:56] Yes.

[37:57] Councillor Archie.

[37:58] Yes.

[37:59] Okay.

[38:00] Item 4B is approved with the emergency clause.

[38:03] Next item will be for L.

[38:06] Donation from Anchor's film company to the city of Tulsa for 24 large boulders used on

[38:12] 4th Street between Denver Avenue and Shai and Avenue now relocated to the green waste site.

[38:19] Do we have any speakers on this item?

[38:22] There are no speakers.

[38:24] Council discussion.

[38:25] Yes.

[38:27] I'll make a motion to deny accepting the donation.

[38:30] Second.

[38:33] Okay.

[38:34] There's a.

[38:35] Please call the roll.

[38:39] Councillor.

[38:42] Yes.

[38:43] Councillor Bellis.

[38:44] Yes.

[38:45] Councillor Gilbert.

[38:46] Yes.

[38:47] Councillor Bangle.

[39:04] Councillor Bush.

[39:06] Yes.

[39:07] Yes.

[39:08] Yes.

[39:09] Okay.

[39:11] Item is denied.

[39:14] Moving back.

[39:16] The remaining items.

[39:19] Madam Chair.

[39:20] Yes.

[39:21] For those of you who don't know it just happened here, I would encourage you to.

[39:24] Look at the discussion we had earlier today on the urban and economic development committee as to why we denied acceptance and what that means.

[39:34] I don't want to belabor the point where we're running over time now, but we did have a very robust discussion.

[39:39] And I think it's very clear if you will review it.

[39:42] Madam, why you just saw a 630 on a donation.

[39:46] It's no reflection on the Anchor Stone Company.

[39:49] Thank you.

[39:51] All right.

[39:52] Moving on.

[39:53] Items for.

[39:54] See through.

[39:56] Okay.

[39:57] We'll not be read aloud.

[39:59] However, public comments will be received on these items.

[40:02] Do we have any speakers?

[40:04] The three speakers are first speakers.

[40:07] I'm a member of the company's Alexander for item 4D.

[40:25] Good evening, council.

[40:26] Good evening.

[40:27] And audience.

[40:31] This is very interesting to me because in April,

[40:36] April 5th of 2019, I received the letter from Gary.

[40:41] I don't know how to pronounce it in that last name, so I'm a spirit.

[40:44] RHYS.

[40:47] And in that, I'm going to read some from it.

[40:51] It's claims that funding has no specific geographic area.

[40:58] That's a lot.

[41:00] Here you are.

[41:03] Second of all, it referred to the 1974 community development act.

[41:11] And in that act, at that time, by the president, I think, was president for it.

[41:17] I'm not sure.

[41:19] He made a community development block when stronger.

[41:22] He added more money.

[41:24] And one thing he did was to bring it back to the citizens.

[41:29] Because at the time, people were complaining that the government was overstepping this bow.

[41:34] And they couldn't get anything done.

[41:37] Which is going on now with this government.

[41:40] It's supposed to be by the people.

[41:42] It comes from the bottom up from the people to the government,

[41:45] not from the government to the people.

[41:48] And you are wrong.

[41:51] And also, it also stated that over the last 20 years,

[42:01] the use of this money has been changed.

[42:06] It was not called a toss, but they changed it to all of toss as wrong.

[42:14] So whether on the agenda tonight, it's completely wrong.

[42:19] If there's anything light up here about this, it's the federal government.

[42:23] I just spoke with it, put it right.

[42:25] So any questions?

[42:28] I know you can't answer me.

[42:29] So I'm going.

[42:31] This was put up by the city government.

[42:37] Not by the people.

[42:38] There were people there.

[42:40] But it's nothing like the people that I know.

[42:46] It was put into a plan in it too.

[42:50] There's a problem.

[42:52] We have a problem here.

[42:54] I always hear you talking about, you wanted to be a world-class city.

[43:00] To be a world-class city, you can't be going along with every other city in the United States.

[43:08] That means you have to stand up on your own.

[43:11] Be different.

[43:13] And when I see that from the city, I would stand up here for five minutes to tell you how good you have done.

[43:21] Good evening, Councilor.

[43:23] Good evening.

[43:24] I want to speak on this item D2.

[43:27] It has to do with herd monies.

[43:31] And how those monies are being handled for the area that those monies are designated for.

[43:40] Now, we know that herd monies have been designated for North Tulsa area.

[43:47] And we know that the North Tulsa area has not been benefited from these lands as they should have been.

[43:55] This has to stop because this is wrong for you, some money.

[44:00] That is being put in that area to strengthen that community.

[44:06] There seems to be a problem allowing black people in Tulsa to really share in the community of the city of Tulsa.

[44:20] Now, we know in 1921 white people, primarily white people, burned up a very prosperous black area.

[44:32] And it's just terrible how what all happened with that situation.

[44:43] But now, herd came in and has been given this city monies to help develop their community.

[44:54] And it's about a fight.

[44:56] It's about a battle.

[44:59] Amen.

[45:00] Not too long ago, I had to file a complaint with the EPA to get these and sue on water systems over there.

[45:07] Because while suicide was backing up in the port grounds and the schools and like homes, why?

[45:15] Why do we have to deal with things like that and have to write a formal federal complaint to get services?

[45:23] People, a lot of the homes, over in the north, I guess they're being considered for taking away from the people who own the homes are forcing the people out of their homes.

[45:40] I understand what all the confusion is about the homes when people own their homes.

[45:46] I can talk about one home over there. My husband's father was a soldier and he received a purple heart for his service in the military.

[45:59] He bought a home in that area to raise his two sons. My husband and his brother.

[46:07] And my husband's parents have passed away, but the sons have inherited that property.

[46:16] Now, because of a lot of the work that we have done on behalf of that community, that home has been targeted, tried to put a ring on the property, couldn't do that.

[46:28] Took all the utilities out of the house, shut off the phone service, all services, bought it up the front door and the back door and left the window open.

[46:38] Somebody has gone in there and stolen all the yard equipment.

[46:42] We sent a code enforcement over there to try to penalize my husband and his brother for the yard not being taken care of.

[46:56] And other things have been taken from there. Now, we've been working in the North Tulsa community for a long time.

[47:03] And we've been able to get things done. We've had a file for local clients to get things done and do and help each other.

[47:13] You know, we have people in our group. We formed a neighborhood association over there very active.

[47:19] It's bound with the state of Oklahoma.

[47:24] But we had people that had that situation. We had it being treated with local hospitals.

[47:34] We had to write to the senator. Senator Nichols office was very helpful to help people get the medical care that they were supposed to receive.

[47:49] So I don't understand.

[47:54] I understand.

[47:56] 1921.

[47:58] But it's never stopped. It's continuing over in the North Tulsa community.

[48:04] HUD funds. There are HUD funds that are designated for that area.

[48:08] There's people that live in that area need help.

[48:11] But you are the most people in the area. It's a benefit from the help.

[48:14] The funds. You want to use the funds or other things. You want to consider what people's request are for services.

[48:23] I mean, you let by made the streets deteriorate over there.

[48:28] I had to write a federal complaint to get those streets redone.

[48:32] I understand the attack.

[48:35] Sorry.

[48:36] Sorry.

[48:37] It's very expensive.

[48:38] It's my sentence.

[48:40] A very vicious attack is ongoing for that North Tulsa community because it's predominantly African-American.

[48:51] And every person.

[48:53] Thank you, Ms. Bernice.

[48:54] In this city matters.

[48:56] Thank you.

[48:57] Thank you.

[48:58] Thank you.

[48:59] Your time is up. Thank you.

[49:00] And I would like for you all to consider it.

[49:02] All right. Thank you.

[49:03] Thank you.

[49:04] Call the next speaker, please.

[49:06] Our next speaker is Mr. John Hut finds for items for FJ and K.

[49:11] I'll be ashamed of you for it.

[49:14] If you don't have any time.

[49:20] Then that would be a number of questions you want to talk.

[49:26] Thank you, Councillors.

[49:28] Gender item.

[49:29] For F.

[49:31] Machines are police department.

[49:32] So I'm using this opportunity to express my gratefulness for our excellent Tulsa police department.

[49:40] Gender item for J.

[49:43] We be trees.

[49:45] Donation of skilled tree work at beautiful Woodward Park is a blessing to Tulsa.

[49:50] Pruning away a necessary material helps protect these nice seeders.

[49:55] Encourages healthy growth and creates a safer, more beautiful place for families, students, and visitors to enjoy.

[50:03] Thank you, Councillors, for passing this.

[50:07] I'm sure you will.

[50:08] And allowing we be trees to invest their time, talent, and generosity in one of Tulsa's treasured parks.

[50:17] This brings to mind master gardeners.

[50:20] Here in Tulsa who graciously shared their knowledge at the Brookside Neighborhood Association meeting on Monday evening.

[50:27] They're willing to teach and serve.

[50:29] Reminds us that when people generously share their time, talents, and expertise.

[50:35] Our neighborhoods, our parks, and our entire community flourishes.

[50:39] We are grateful for everyone who invests in the beauty and well-being of Tulsa.

[50:44] By the way, I still appreciate Councillor Bush's presentation when she came.

[50:50] As well prepared, she communicated beautifully and addressed the neighbor's questions.

[50:57] As I hear about pruning, I am reminded of the words of the Lord Jesus who taught that our Heavenly Father,

[51:03] lovingly tenses garden so that it becomes an even more fruitful, so that it becomes even more fruitful.

[51:10] May His wisdom inspire each of us to continue to cultivate lives of kindness, service, and generosity.

[51:17] I'm grateful to we be trees, our parks department, and everyone who shares their gifts to help Tulsa grow stronger, healthier, and more beautiful.

[51:26] May God continue to bless our city and all who serve and all who serve.

[51:32] God Almighty, we invoke your guidance.

[51:36] Agenda item 4K, a deed of dedication by Tulsa Habitat for Humanity, Inc.

[51:42] A property located at 2233 North Evanson Place City View Edition required for a lot split.

[51:50] Scripture tells us in Psalms, God inhabits the praises of His people, Israel, Great Nation.

[51:57] We know we can build places for humanity.

[52:02] This is great.

[52:03] And it's also interesting to know that His people can create a habitat for our Lord to dwell in by praising Him.

[52:11] Thank you.

[52:12] Thank you, Mr. Half-Fines.

[52:14] Is that the last speaker, Bailey?

[52:16] There are no more speakers.

[52:17] Okay.

[52:18] Is there a council discussion?

[52:20] Madam Chair, I will take a moment to comment on item J and just give a shout out to Webe trees,

[52:26] who is located in District 2.

[52:29] And just where there are continued support of our community.

[52:32] So thank you Webe trees.

[52:35] All right.

[52:36] Any other council discussion?

[52:39] We have to approve item 4C through 4K with the emergency clause on 4C.

[52:44] Second, please call the roll.

[52:47] Councilor Debt?

[52:48] Yes.

[52:49] Councilor Bellas?

[52:50] Yes.

[52:51] Councilor Gilbert?

[52:52] Yes.

[52:53] Yes.

[52:54] Councilor Debt?

[52:55] Yes.

[52:56] Councilor Lincoln?

[52:57] Yes.

[52:58] Councilor Bush?

[52:59] Yes.

[53:01] Councilor Hal Harper?

[53:02] Yes.

[53:03] Councilor Archie?

[53:04] Yes.

[53:05] All right.

[53:06] Items 4C through K are approved with the emergency clause on 4C.

[53:08] 5 authorities, boards and commission.

[53:10] 5A, monthly status report from the sales tax overview committee on current activities and efforts.

[53:17] A lo Mr. Web.

[53:19] Thank you, Chairwoman Gilbert.

[53:21] It's good to see you, everyone.

[53:23] My name is Ashley Web.

[53:24] I chair the City of Tulsa's sales tax oversight committee.

[53:28] We oversee all sales tax and general obligation bond funded projects from parks, public safety,

[53:36] city architectural building services, transportation, vision and vision extension.

[53:41] Previously, it also included stormwater and wastewater.

[53:44] So just wanted to highlight that.

[53:46] I do think that there is some value with our long serving membership.

[53:51] Some of the institutional knowledge that our volunteers have learned.

[53:55] I think is invaluable and helping us accomplish the goals of the oversight committee.

[54:01] So we've many of us have been appointed by multiple administrations.

[54:06] Our during multiple administrations by multiple city counselors.

[54:11] So I think there is some value there.

[54:13] I want to thank Councillor Hall Harper for her appointment of miss of the Neshenese laws.

[54:17] We look forward to having this laws.

[54:19] They're not on committee.

[54:20] Nice to meet you.

[54:21] And I do want to acknowledge and thank my friend Mario Johnson, who's in his seventh year.

[54:26] So being on the serving on the oversight committee.

[54:29] And he is here to back me up today.

[54:31] So thank you for being here.

[54:33] The City Council is in receipt of our chair report.

[54:38] I want Mrs. Silly Belabor that information.

[54:41] I do want to highlight that our actual 2016 and 2023 sales tax program revenues have exceeded our adopted budget estimates of those programs.

[54:54] For the month of July, year over year, we were 2% above what that adopted budget was going to be.

[55:00] So that was a $200,000 above what we've estimated for the year to date.

[55:04] We're approximately $4 million in revenues above what we've estimated.

[55:08] Awesome.

[55:09] Always good to see in here that.

[55:12] A few projects I wanted to highlight.

[55:14] If you haven't been out, you can check on the progress of the Gilchrist Museum Road expansion.

[55:19] I would encourage you to do so.

[55:21] It is moving rapidly.

[55:23] And I think that the one thing that I think is worth highlighting is the financial.

[55:28] It's been provided to be able to complete this project within the allotted time.

[55:32] It seems to be a good incentive.

[55:36] I don't know how that translates to every other project that we have across the city.

[55:40] But in the sense it would appear at least at this stage.

[55:43] They will complete this project on time.

[55:46] If not early.

[55:48] Regarding the museum construction.

[55:51] I would highlight that most of the art from the offsite storage facility.

[55:55] Was transferred back to the new museum location.

[56:00] By the beginning of May.

[56:02] The offsite storage location should be listed this month for sale.

[56:08] Once that is sold, those proceeds will go back into some ad alternates and some additional items that

[56:14] Hope to be implemented for day one operations at the museum.

[56:20] So, and that looks to be.

[56:23] I think some of those items were.

[56:25] A conversion of the old maintenance or holocultural.

[56:28] Horticulture building to a museum wood shop.

[56:31] Actual garage doors for the for the large loading dock.

[56:34] Beneath the amphitheater or the.

[56:38] Performance space on the on the north west side.

[56:42] Acoustical panels for noise reductions in the vista room.

[56:44] Which I think is also going to be.

[56:46] It's important and I wouldn't be surprised to see some.

[56:50] Some usage for day one.

[56:52] Additions to the landscaping.

[56:54] So, additional projects.

[56:56] I do want to highlight some parks projects.

[56:58] Fred Johnson Park.

[57:00] Again, that's an 8.125 million dollar project.

[57:02] Groundbreaking 9 a.m. on Friday.

[57:06] One thing that when this was presented in detail to the STOC.

[57:10] One thing that we made specific inquiry about was the cost and the.

[57:15] Possible addition of water around the three.

[57:19] Dog park areas right now.

[57:21] At least the initial design only had water in one section of the park.

[57:25] It was about a 40,000 dollar addition to put water.

[57:28] Kind of in the center of those three dog parks.

[57:31] There are approximately 700,000 dollars in savings on this project.

[57:36] Which are looking to add the kind of the bioswale.

[57:39] Ad alternates.

[57:40] But could also be used to add water to that to those three dog parks.

[57:44] So just encourage everyone to.

[57:46] Potentially follow up on that.

[57:48] I don't know what the final determination was.

[57:50] Hill park improvements.

[57:52] That's.

[57:53] 2.75 million dollars to improve the remaining four acres adjacent to the one acre.

[57:59] Side on which.

[58:00] The community center sits and coach reads foundation operates.

[58:04] Community engagement sessions.

[58:06] Have long been promised in our forthcoming.

[58:09] They were supposed to be in July.

[58:11] I'm hoping they're going to be in August.

[58:13] I've not seen any announcement yet.

[58:15] So we'll see.

[58:17] Dreamkeeper Dreamkeeper's part.

[58:21] Almost seven and a quarter million.

[58:25] At this point, just wanted to highlight some historical things and encourage the the

[58:29] counselors to.

[58:31] To look closely at this one.

[58:34] There's a I think a 78 page traffic study that governs that is.

[58:39] Being.

[58:42] Utilized kind of to.

[58:45] To explain and probably justify the removal of the main street spur.

[58:49] So if you haven't looked at that study, please do so.

[58:52] That was completed in finalized.

[58:55] A couple months ago.

[58:57] The plans that we've seen do call for that spur to be removed.

[59:01] Historically, one of our.

[59:03] Better improve our Tulsa.

[59:06] Street improvements was Main Street from 15th to 18th.

[59:10] So we have.

[59:12] Still a pretty brand new four lanes that will now go into a dead end.

[59:17] At 18th and.

[59:19] Main with the current dreamkeeper design goes forward.

[59:24] And I'm not.

[59:26] Not speaking to the appropriateness or in a in a appropriateness.

[59:29] So that design.

[59:30] But what I am speaking to is I think currently we're looking at about

[59:33] $700,000 additional for a three way stop light, which is what is now being called for.

[59:38] If you remove that spur and you would probably have to expand.

[59:43] 18th Street to the west to accommodate the traffic then getting to Boulder.

[59:48] So just everyone kind of take a look at that because those costs are not included in.

[59:52] These costs for the part budget.

[59:55] So.

[59:58] Just some city architectural building.

[1:00:00] Services projects, project PR-25-18, that's the $18.9 million for the jail on the court's relocation.

[1:00:08] Still stands out as an anomaly, at least to me, in my 15-plus years. Normally we have a plan and then funding.

[1:00:17] Right now we have funding hanging out there in no plan. So, do very architects, I think, on the table to be brought in as a consultant.

[1:00:26] I assume that's to help further along this design and location identification, but just wanted to highlight that currently, all we have is a budgetary line item.

[1:00:38] Lastly, the 815 South Riverside Drive, the CRIBB Hill Project, that's $250,000.

[1:00:47] Sun cost, already spent from the 2006 sales tax for the statute.

[1:00:54] Initially, we were told we were not going to be on the hook for the storage cost.

[1:00:58] Apparently we were on the hook for the storage cost since January, at $2,500 a month, so that's $20,000 through this month.

[1:01:05] We've had two geo-text studies that we know of. One up top, where is originally supposed to go, one down low at the current proposed location.

[1:01:15] The conditions at the bottom of the hill are different than the conditions at the top of the hill.

[1:01:20] We don't have a cost on this geo-text studies. Last time I drove by over the weekend, I didn't see that we had started in a construction.

[1:01:28] So, I don't know what the costs are above the $250,000 in the $20,000 for the storage, but this would continue to appear to be somewhat of an unforester that has cost that we don't have handle on.

[1:01:44] So, I think that's the limit of what I had to highlight.

[1:01:56] Well, thank you very much for those highlights, Mr. Webb.

[1:02:00] Counselors, any questions from Mr. Webb? Yes, Councillor Villas.

[1:02:04] Just two quick questions.

[1:02:07] One is going back to the dreamkeeper's park piece, because I believe the original plans were to vacate.

[1:02:13] And like that area of road to create better connectivity with how there's that veteran's memorial monument.

[1:02:19] That's like very hard for folks to access and it's separate from the rest of the park.

[1:02:23] We're talking about moving that potentially. Oh, okay. So, I think that's still.

[1:02:28] So, I'm talking about physically moving it, but still also vacating the road.

[1:02:32] Right, that would be. I don't know if you've seen the full design. I did not bring the renderings, but I couldn't.

[1:02:36] I haven't probably not the latest version. Okay.

[1:02:38] It's kind of a combination of the three renderings that maybe had been presented to the council previously.

[1:02:43] But it would still have an elevated feature to the park, you know, where that current monument is and then connect into a public plaza.

[1:02:52] There would be at least some sort of a stage space that if facing north could accommodate as many as 6,000 people facing the green space,

[1:03:01] could accommodate supposedly as many as 15,000 people.

[1:03:05] So, I'm just to clarify, you were saying that to actually do then a very road construction wasn't in the existing budget.

[1:03:11] It's not in this budget. And based upon the cost that we've been in.

[1:03:16] The S-T-O-C has been presented previously related to three ways.

[1:03:20] Stop lights. Most recently, I would point the council to the ones that were installed by O-A-S-S-Market on North Korea.

[1:03:28] Okay. Those costs now continue to be estimated to us at around 700,000.

[1:03:34] And if you look at the width of 18th going then west towards Boulder, I would submit it probably is going to have to be expanded as well.

[1:03:45] So, there will be costs like that.

[1:03:47] Okay. That's helpful. And then as a quick note related to, and I'm not sure what's been presented to you know, for to you all.

[1:03:56] Okay. And I don't want to talk about 1815 reverse side drive further, but at the same time.

[1:04:01] Because if the other initial plan had gone forward and just to clarify to my council colleagues.

[1:04:07] And things had been submitted to draw down the state funding and pair everything.

[1:04:12] And the sharp development planned most recently had gone forward.

[1:04:15] They would have been taken care of the sculpture.

[1:04:18] And do we know if that would have included, was that ever presented to you all if that included the installation as well?

[1:04:24] Or would we have always been in a position, I guess, for restoring it?

[1:04:28] We're still trying to drill down on exactly the costs of what we're looking at.

[1:04:33] So, my understanding was that $250,000 necessarily went to the artist contract, but I don't, I have not looked at that contract in a long time.

[1:04:42] Okay.

[1:04:43] Okay.

[1:04:44] So, I don't know where, but what we're trying to identify is just what have we spent and what are we spending today?

[1:04:51] The geotech studies may be pursuant to an existing city contract, but we haven't gotten us numbers yet.

[1:04:58] And initially, we were also under the impression that we were not going to be on the hook for storage costs, because that's why we were leaving the statue or the sculpture in Florida for the time being.

[1:05:08] But now it appears that's changed.

[1:05:11] Thank you for your legitimate citizen oversight.

[1:05:15] It's very appreciated.

[1:05:19] All right. I have Councillor Dutton, then Councillor Dector Wright and Councillor Archie.

[1:05:25] Yeah, so thank you for your questions. Councillor Bellas.

[1:05:31] I was also concerned about the timeframe and the storage fees that we're going to continue to incur.

[1:05:42] Is there anything that we can kind of cling to that put some of this to rest and saves our taxpayers, the money here?

[1:05:55] I think we need to put it up as quickly as possible.

[1:05:58] Yeah.

[1:05:59] And I was feel better if Mary Beth Babcock were involved, because apparently she can put these up very quickly.

[1:06:05] I think we need to be careful because that the issue of that statue is an on the agenda as a separate item.

[1:06:12] So I, I'd hesitate to have a full discussion about it.

[1:06:17] Okay. Well, thank you very much for leaving that to the end.

[1:06:21] This is something that we can all cry on our pillows tonight when we get home.

[1:06:26] So it would be, it would be nice if we could at least have it up at that location by next year's toss of time.

[1:06:34] Thank you so much for your presentation. Thank you.

[1:06:37] So for clarification, Caroline, so this was part of his report.

[1:06:42] Can they not ask questions about the crying baby?

[1:06:47] I think you could ask some clarifying questions, but I was getting the sense that a full blown discussion was starting.

[1:06:54] Okay. All right. Fair enough. Councillor Dictary.

[1:06:58] Thank you, Mr. Webb, for your continued leadership.

[1:07:04] It sounded at the amount of information that you all received at the council right now is not receiving.

[1:07:09] And so I appreciate your transparency, all the committee work and everything, but I have a growing concern that we're getting the most transparency when you all come before us.

[1:07:21] So I also just want to say today we had a discussion about the powers of the council.

[1:07:29] I think we need to look further into some of the things that we're hearing here.

[1:07:34] Especially as we talk about fiduciary responsibility and cost containment.

[1:07:40] I will just re-amplify my comments from earlier today.

[1:07:44] We are the art culture and humanities capital of the state.

[1:07:48] We hold ourselves out that way. We market ourselves out that way.

[1:07:51] Things like this at the citizens vote for to help spur economic development.

[1:07:55] And so when we have ongoing issues like this, couch around public art, whether it's boulders that we're really never for an art project,

[1:08:03] or an actual art project that now has turned into ongoing costs and bigger questions.

[1:08:09] I think we have to be really careful about what we're doing and how we're doing it.

[1:08:13] And so I do think as the council should not just receive reports from the sales tax overview committee, which I greatly appreciate.

[1:08:21] I know how often you guys meet and you have the subcommittee work.

[1:08:24] You guys go out in the field and visit and lay eyes on things and our in places and spaces where we can't be, which is why it's so important to have dedicated volunteers.

[1:08:36] Providing oversight and that's an ongoing conversation that we continue to have about the other investments we make with city dollars.

[1:08:43] So I just, maybe we need to, when do you all meet? When do you guys have your meetings?

[1:08:51] The fourth Tuesday of every month at 8 a.m.

[1:08:55] On the tenth floor.

[1:08:56] On the tenth floor.

[1:08:57] And those aren't live streamed, right?

[1:08:59] Right.

[1:09:00] So they're open to the public.

[1:09:02] They are open to the public.

[1:09:03] I'm going to suggest that our chair and vice chair and the rest of us start figuring out who's going to these meetings,

[1:09:08] because we can't wait for Mr. Web to come to us.

[1:09:11] And as long as we continue to not get this information directly, while I appreciate a monthly status report,

[1:09:17] I think we're going to have to start moving a little more quickly on some of these areas of concern,

[1:09:23] because all you can do is present it to us and then we ask a question and then a month goes by.

[1:09:28] So thank you for your continued diligence and Ms. Jenkins and Mr. Johnson and all the folks who come here all the time in all your committee.

[1:09:36] And we each have two representatives from our district.

[1:09:39] So I love how the sales tax overview committee is structured.

[1:09:44] It is something that some of us have proposed need to exist in other oversight entities.

[1:09:50] And I just think we as councilor are probably going to have to divide and conquer an ADM Tuesday meeting,

[1:09:56] so that we can start getting this information sooner and then go ask our questions,

[1:10:00] because all they can do is just present it to us.

[1:10:02] We actually have the authority to investigate.

[1:10:05] We also have the authority to ask our staff to go get more information that maybe even you all would benefit from.

[1:10:11] So thank you.

[1:10:12] I appreciate that.

[1:10:13] And councilor, I want to say a special thanks to Steve Lassman in the Parks Department.

[1:10:17] He's been an excellent liaison in his new role in the last year,

[1:10:21] but he had arranged for us to have a specific presentation at our last general meeting here on the 10th floor.

[1:10:30] We're regarding Dream Keepers Park and we will forward that information that we received to the city council.

[1:10:35] Thank you.

[1:10:36] All right, I have council don't leave yet.

[1:10:39] I have councilor Archie and Bangle.

[1:10:41] Yes.

[1:10:42] Thank you so much.

[1:10:43] I am very concerned about the storage because I thought they were going to cover it now.

[1:10:49] They're not.

[1:10:50] I wonder if we can get them any back.

[1:10:51] But Johnson Park, we're very excited about it.

[1:10:57] The centralized waterfront rooms that you're talking about are those for humans or for dogs.

[1:11:03] They're the centralized water services.

[1:11:06] We're going to be near that splash pad.

[1:11:08] So kind of in the center of the park at the west end of the existing parking lot.

[1:11:12] So but it's a large park.

[1:11:14] And so everyone would need to come.

[1:11:17] Leave where they are to come to that location.

[1:11:19] We want for sure.

[1:11:20] But so.

[1:11:21] But where they.

[1:11:22] You spoke about them.

[1:11:24] Like they were dog.

[1:11:25] Boy found something.

[1:11:26] So I don't know if it was going to be a full water fountain with one of the smaller ones for the dog.

[1:11:30] Okay.

[1:11:31] But that was going to be the sole source of water.

[1:11:33] If you needed it for for thirst or for your animals.

[1:11:36] And there was not going to be any water at the three dog park.

[1:11:39] Location.

[1:11:41] Okay.

[1:11:42] All right.

[1:11:43] So they indicated that it would be about a $40,000 addition to to bring that to include that.

[1:11:49] And then there were other savings that were that were are being realized that potentially

[1:11:54] are going to that kind of bio swell feature, which would be immediately to the west of the dog park.

[1:12:02] Location.

[1:12:03] Thank you so much.

[1:12:04] Councillor Bangle.

[1:12:06] Yeah.

[1:12:07] Actually, thank you.

[1:12:09] It's interesting to learn some of the information that you shared tonight.

[1:12:13] And Athena, obviously, is a new STOC member.

[1:12:17] Obviously, I think it's relevant that you see exactly why this is important to us and that we have citizen oversight.

[1:12:25] And so I think when we talked about, you know, citizens serving on ABCs.

[1:12:31] It's important that they see how important they even are to us as a legislative body.

[1:12:37] The only question that I really have actually is on the guilt crease.

[1:12:47] Do you does everything for that specific project?

[1:12:51] Outside the street widening.

[1:12:57] Does the rest of the project seem to be on pace to be completed when we anticipate it?

[1:13:03] I think they're on site now beginning the installation of the fabricated exhibits.

[1:13:08] That was the last one of the largest pieces to be funded.

[1:13:12] It was about I think 18 to 20 million.

[1:13:15] So they're in the process of putting the pieces together for what you and I will see when they open in 2027.

[1:13:25] Okay, I'm excited about that.

[1:13:28] There was a temporary road on the east side of Gil Creek's Museum Road near Pine that will now be converted in properly into that kind of ten foot wide.

[1:13:38] Sidewalk that you will see run all the way to 412.

[1:13:41] That was put in strictly to allow our work to be transported.

[1:13:44] And it was done by all accounts.

[1:13:48] Well without any issue.

[1:13:50] Okay, so and the spiral staircase is you know the floating staircase has been finally finished and the skylight is installed and does not leak.

[1:13:59] Yeah, I'm just on pants and needles because there's like it actually turned me on to what was a Benjamin Franklin's traveling declaration then we own.

[1:14:12] No, but I'm saying that's the one that he traveled Europe with correct.

[1:14:16] Yeah, I'm excited to see that if nothing else right because I haven't made it to, you know, some of our places in Washington.

[1:14:26] I'm just excited to see all the artwork and things so thank you for the work of you and the rest of the folks who sit on our sales tax oversight committee.

[1:14:40] We appreciate it.

[1:14:42] Thank you, Mr. Web. Appreciate you.

[1:14:45] Do we have any speakers on item 5A?

[1:14:50] We have one speaker, Mr. John Huffines.

[1:15:00] Thank you, Councillors. I'm also grateful for Mr. Ashley Webb and his leadership of the STOC and his report.

[1:15:11] And the Unity and Harmony demonstrated by the sales tax overview committee as they come together to produce this report.

[1:15:20] Their collaborative spirit, strength and trust, and helps guide wise decisions for our city.

[1:15:27] And under parts, we have seen supporting documentation regarding our public zoo, a place celebrating the beauty of nature.

[1:15:35] It offers opportunity to appreciate creation and our Creator.

[1:15:40] God, the Father, and His Son, the Lord Jesus Christ. Thank you all.

[1:15:45] Thank you, Mr. Huffines.

[1:20:37] Yeah, I got the finger when I said I wanted to speak.

[1:20:41] Yeah, not the middle one.

[1:20:43] But anyway.

[1:20:44] Number one.

[1:20:45] You're number one.

[1:20:46] I heard the word pruning earlier and I immediately thought of two people on both sides of me.

[1:20:51] Councillor Lake and today is his birthday so we want to congratulate him on his birthday.

[1:20:58] And then I don't think we're in.

[1:21:01] We have council next week and I think your birthday is coming up in four days.

[1:21:06] Is that not right?

[1:21:07] So congratulations and happy birthday to both of our colleagues.

[1:21:12] I think it's self-explanatory.

[1:21:19] All right.

[1:21:20] I think we're all a little delusional now after today.

[1:21:23] Yes.

[1:21:24] Happy birthday Councillor Lake and I think it has to do with.

[1:21:27] All right.

[1:21:30] I do have an announcement.

[1:21:33] Okay.

[1:21:34] I just want to remind everyone about our district five meeting.

[1:21:38] It's going to be held on Tuesday August 11th from 6 to 7 at the Tulsa Tech.

[1:21:43] Limley campus and we have our city auditor coming to speak to us.

[1:21:48] So Councillor Bellas.

[1:21:51] Just really quickly.

[1:21:52] This is a birthday present for Councillor Lake and I want to remind people about our letter on a stick laws related to campaign signs because it's the season.

[1:21:59] People have them all over the place and public rights of way by, you know, stop signs, etc.

[1:22:04] And I have started pulling a Councillor Lake in and pulling them of all varieties.

[1:22:09] But I have been redistributing them to people who support those candidates.

[1:22:12] But just reminding folks you can't just put them anywhere and everywhere.

[1:22:15] It's not legal.

[1:22:17] All right.

[1:22:18] Thank you.

[1:22:19] Any other announcements?

[1:22:21] All right.

[1:22:23] We're moving on item eight B district five project plan number two.

[1:22:28] That will use council district community development priority project funds from and prove our Tulsa to for the installation of a water fountain.

[1:22:36] Seems to be the theme today.

[1:22:38] Darlington Park in the amount of $50,000.

[1:22:41] Do we have any speakers?

[1:22:43] There are no speakers.

[1:22:44] Council discussion?

[1:22:45] I want to ask.

[1:22:46] Why does their water fountain cost 40, but yours cost 50?

[1:22:50] No.

[1:22:51] It's.

[1:22:52] Well, ours also has a meter that we have to install.

[1:22:55] There you go.

[1:22:56] There you go.

[1:22:57] Well, if you wanted to know.

[1:28:05] Hearing impossible action upholding or denying an appeal to the city of Tulsa to the city Council.

[1:28:11] Requested by Mr. Additula.

[1:28:15] So is this just for clarification?

[1:28:19] And is this an actual appeal, or is it, what are we doing?

[1:28:33] Hello, Councillor Scaree Father Gil, public advocate.

[1:28:36] City of Tulsa. Mr. Additula is on steady on his feet.

[1:28:40] So I told him he could stay right there and we will get him a microphone.

[1:28:44] He, this is an official appeal, but tonight he wants just to say thank you.

[1:28:52] Mr. Additula, do you want me to read your statement?

[1:28:56] Yes. And I'm in a readestatement from him to the council.

[1:29:00] From him.

[1:29:02] The subject, appreciation for city councils effort and preserving property.

[1:29:08] Dear members of the city council, I am writing to express my heartfelt gratitude

[1:29:12] for the diligent efforts undertaken by the council to prevent the demolition of my property.

[1:29:18] Your commitment to the well-being and preservation of our community has not gone unnoticed

[1:29:24] and I'm sincerely thankful for your unwavering support.

[1:29:28] I am filled with immense joy and gratitude for positive outcome

[1:29:32] and I am truly appreciative of the dedication and hard work exhibited by each of you.

[1:29:38] Your actions have not only saved my home, but have also demonstrated your dedication to serving the community.

[1:29:44] To the six members seeking reelection, I have a full confidence in your capabilities and leadership.

[1:29:50] I am certain that with your continued efforts, our city will thrive and prosper.

[1:29:56] This unite in our endeavors to secure reelection and further enhance.

[1:30:00] The positive impact we have on our community, in closing. I extend my best wishes to each member of the council.

[1:30:07] Your commitment to public services is commendable and I am grateful for your ongoing support. May you all be blessed with continued success in your endeavors.

[1:30:17] Thank you once again for your invaluable contributions and unwavering dedication, warm regards.

[1:30:24] Thank you.

[1:30:29] That was very nice.

[1:30:30] So I do believe that there is a construction plan in place. You have a copy of it.

[1:30:36] So I believe that means code enforcement is thumbs up or all good.

[1:30:42] We will continue monitoring though to make sure that the construction agreement continues as stated.

[1:30:49] And so I'm going to hand it over to Mr. Attitude.

[1:30:52] I'm going to sit down. He has a microphone. So if you want to ask him any questions or give him an opportunity.

[1:30:57] Brand, do you have anything that you would like to add?

[1:31:02] Brand pitch for code enforcement. So I think you'll have a copy of the construction schedule.

[1:31:07] We also have a copy of Mr. Attitude and Mr. Walker's contract for deed.

[1:31:12] So we're welcome the opportunity to do monitoring this case and continue to monitor it.

[1:31:17] We do ask either that Mr. Attitude with draw his appeal or the council deny the appeal so that we can follow the sign order and monitor his property.

[1:31:25] Okay.

[1:31:29] Mr. Attitude, do you want to say anything before we?

[1:31:34] I'm fine.

[1:31:37] Just point of clarification. We either need to have him with draw or we can just make a motion to deny and then that drops it.

[1:31:44] Just administratively, basically.

[1:31:49] Yes.

[1:31:51] Okay.

[1:31:54] Denying the appeal would basically kind of put it back to as if there was no appeal and it would be kind of between the two to work on it.

[1:32:04] The sign order would be in place and you know, couldn't force it would be.

[1:32:10] The sign order which he appealed.

[1:32:13] Yeah.

[1:32:14] If it was denied that would allow us to follow through with sign order and monitor and accept his construction schedule.

[1:32:19] And it's it's set to be completed in like mid or late.

[1:32:23] Okay.

[1:32:24] So if it gets further along the road and we're 80% done then we'll extend and let him work longer.

[1:32:29] So councilor, can I just make a motion?

[1:32:31] Okay. I moved to deny item 10 A.

[1:32:35] Second.

[1:32:36] Oh, yes.

[1:32:37] That it was on Vanessa.

[1:32:39] Please call the roll for the denial.
