permit the committee to interview MISS Helton at our

852
00:52:47,197 --> 00:52:52,597
interview MISS Helton at our next subsequent meeting. Okay,

853
00:52:53,671 --> 00:52:57,608
next subsequent meeting. Okay, let's see, MISS Darby, would you

854
00:52:57,608 --> 00:52:59,843
let's see, MISS Darby, would you recommend that we dispose of

855
00:52:59,843 --> 00:53:02,413
recommend that we dispose of that item first, separate from

856
00:53:02,413 --> 00:53:06,917
that item first, separate from the others? Can we take that up

857
00:53:06,917 --> 00:53:08,850
the others? Can we take that up separately as it as a part of

858
00:53:08,850 --> 00:53:11,221
separately as it as a part of that other item? I think you

859
00:53:11,221 --> 00:53:14,458
that other item? I think you would want to dispose of it a

860
00:53:14,458 --> 00:53:18,595
would want to dispose of it a second. Okay. All righty. Okay.

861
00:53:18,595 --> 00:53:22,666
Second. Okay. All righty. Okay. So, colleagues, you have heard

862
00:53:22,666 --> 00:53:26,670
so, colleagues, you have heard the report of chair prep t

863
00:53:26,670 --> 00:53:29,139
the report of chair prep t regarding the suspension of the

864
00:53:29,139 --> 00:53:32,242
regarding the suspension of the rules relative to the steps of

865
00:53:32,242 --> 00:53:34,778
rules relative to the steps of the interview process for MISS

866
00:53:34,778 --> 00:53:40,684
The interview process for MISS Helton. Let's see. I guess.

867
00:53:40,684 --> 00:53:43,654
Helton. Let's see. I guess. Chair prep t do you want to add

868
00:53:43,654 --> 00:53:46,790
chair prep t do you want to add that motion or to someone else

869
00:53:46,790 --> 00:53:50,561
that motion or to someone else want to do so? I guess I think

870
00:53:50,561 --> 00:53:51,662
want to do so? I guess I think you would need to make the

871
00:53:51,662 --> 00:53:52,830
you would need to make the motion chair because I can't

872
00:53:52,830 --> 00:53:53,764
motion chair because I can't really recognize out of turn.

873
00:53:53,764 --> 00:53:56,834
Really recognize out of turn. And then we'll see if there is

874
00:53:56,834 --> 00:53:58,569
and then we'll see if there is any objection. So moved okay.

875
00:53:58,569 --> 00:53:59,670
Any objection. So moved okay. MR. Prep t has moved a

876
00:53:59,670 --> 00:54:02,673
MR. Prep t has moved a suspension of the rules. Is

877
00:54:02,673 --> 00:54:03,674
suspension of the rules. Is there any objection to the

878
00:54:03,674 --> 00:54:08,412
there any objection to the suspension of the rules? Okay.

879
00:54:08,412 --> 00:54:10,981
Suspension of the rules? Okay. Seeing none, the rules are

880
00:54:10,981 --> 00:54:14,518
seeing none, the rules are suspended. And so, chair prep t

881
00:54:14,518 --> 00:54:16,520
suspended. And so, chair prep t I guess then if you would make a

882
00:54:16,520 --> 00:54:17,654
I guess then if you would make a motion. Likewise to defer her

883
00:54:17,654 --> 00:54:20,958
motion. Likewise to defer her interview to the meeting of

884
00:54:20,958 --> 00:54:24,940

NOVEMBER seventh. So move, MADAM Vice mayor. Okay. Is there a

886
00:54:25,729 --> 00:54:28,198

887
00:54:28,198 --> 00:54:29,266

Defer the interview of MISS Mchale? Horton for consideration

890
00:54:34,304 --> 00:54:37,241

891

894
00:54:46,550 --> 00:54:49,787

895
00:54:49,787 --> 00:54:51,488
Bup bup bup. Hang on, MISS Weiner. There you are. Go ahead.

896
00:54:51,488 --> 00:54:53,357
Weiner. There you are. Go ahead. Great. Thank you, vice mayor. I

897
00:54:53,357 --> 00:54:55,292
great. Thank you, vice mayor. I appreciate it. I just wanted to

898
00:54:55,292 --> 00:54:56,493
appreciate it. I just wanted to provide a little perspective

899
00:54:56,493 --> 00:54:59,196
provide a little perspective around this particular

900
00:54:59,196 --> 00:55:01,465
around this particular particular deferral. First of

901
00:55:01,465 --> 00:55:05,302
particular deferral. First of all, life happens. And sadly, in

902
00:55:05,302 --> 00:55:07,538
all, life happens. And sadly, in this case, death has happened.

903
00:55:07,538 --> 00:55:08,739
This case, death has happened. And I don't know that we

904
00:55:08,739 --> 00:55:10,541
and I don't know that we necessarily dealt with that when

905
00:55:10,541 --> 00:55:13,770
necessarily dealt with that when we were looking at the rules.

906
00:55:13,770 --> 00:55:14,144
We were looking at the rules. Now, while I believe in

907
00:55:14,144 --> 00:55:16,313
now, while I believe in consistency, I think it's really

908
00:55:16,313 --> 00:55:19,149
consistency, I think it's really important that we consider life

909
00:55:19,149 --> 00:55:20,317
important that we consider life events and it MAY be something

910
00:55:20,317 --> 00:55:23,520
events and it MAY be something that we want to look at in the

911
00:55:23,520 --> 00:55:26,223
that we want to look at in the future insofar as the rules that

912
00:55:26,223 --> 00:55:28,158
future insofar as the rules that that we have in front of us. But

913
00:55:28,158 --> 00:55:31,950
that we have in front of us. But that said, I think that we're

914
00:55:31,950 --> 00:55:33,564
that said, I think that we're honoring this woman's angst. I

915
00:55:33,564 --> 00:55:34,698
honoring this woman's angst. I think we're honoring her pain

916
00:55:34,698 --> 00:55:36,900
think we're honoring her pain and her suffering and something

917
00:55:36,900 --> 00:55:39,803
and her suffering and something that she had no control over.

918
00:55:39,803 --> 00:55:42,239
That she had no control over. And so the committee decided to

919
00:55:42,239 --> 00:55:45,375
and so the committee decided to defer this in order to give her

920
00:55:45,375 --> 00:55:48,245
defer this in order to give her the opportunity to not MISS Out

921
00:55:48,245 --> 00:55:49,446
the opportunity to not MISS Out on being able to provide her

922
00:55:49,446 --> 00:55:52,416
on being able to provide her service to the city. Thank you.

923
00:55:52,416 --> 00:55:54,184
Service to the city. Thank you. I appreciate the additional

924
00:55:54,184 --> 00:55:55,520

933
00:56:17,808 --> 00:56:20,177
this deferral. I find this case disturbing. And if something

934
00:56:20,177 --> 00:56:21,311
disturbing. And if something happened on our watch, I don't

935
00:56:21,311 --> 00:56:23,947
happened on our watch, I don't think this feels like we're.

Think this feels like we're. We're throwing money at it. And

937

we're throwing money at it. And as I had my own can. No, MISS

thank you so much. So I'm starting to feel a little bit

1110
01:04:31,201 --> 01:04:32,680
starting to feel a little bit like cassandra because I keep

1111
01:04:32,680 --> 01:04:33,937
like cassandra because I keep coming up here and giving you

1112
01:04:33,937 --> 01:04:34,971
coming up here and giving you all good advice and you're not

1113
01:04:34,971 --> 01:04:37,540
all good advice and you're not listening to me. But for the

1114
01:04:37,540 --> 01:04:40,510
listening to me. But for the short term rental ordinance, I

1115
01:04:40,510 --> 01:04:41,711
short term rental ordinance, I noticed that none of the changes

1116
01:04:41,711 --> 01:04:43,130
noticed that none of the changes that I suggested were

1117
01:04:43,130 --> 01:04:44,140
that I suggested were incorporated. That's fine. It's

1118
01:04:44,140 --> 01:04:46,282
incorporated. That's fine. It's bad policy. I hope that

1119
01:04:46,282 --> 01:04:47,350
bad policy. I hope that everything works out well for

1120
01:04:47,350 --> 01:04:49,486
everything works out well for you, but I fear the state will

1121
01:04:49,486 --> 01:04:51,354
you, but I fear the state will preempt that if you pass it as

1122

preempt that if you pass it as is for the jonathan saad

1131
01:05:08,705 --> 01:05:11,174
Jonathan saad a settlement. $150,000, $150,000 is supposed

1132
01:05:11,174 --> 01:05:12,876
$150,000, $150,000 is supposed to turn the page. Y'all. The

1133
01:05:12,876 --> 01:05:14,440
to turn the page. Y'all. The page is not turning. It's not

1134
01:05:14,440 --> 01:05:15,845
page is not turning. It's not turning. We're on the same page

1135
01:05:15,845 --> 01:05:18,148
turning. We're on the same page and we're going to be for a

1136
01:05:18,148 --> 01:05:19,282
and we're going to be for a while because there's still

1137
01:05:19,282 --> 01:05:20,500
while because there's still dysfunction at metro arts. So

1138
01:05:20,500 --> 01:05:21,851
dysfunction at metro arts. So this is not going to fix

1139
01:05:21,851 --> 01:05:22,919
this is not going to fix everything. It's not going to

1140
01:05:22,919 --> 01:05:24,788
everything. It's not going to solve your problems. There was a

1141
01:05:24,788 --> 01:05:26,923
solve your problems. There was a lot of talk about saad being a

1142
01:05:26,923 --> 01:05:27,991
lot of talk about saad being a protected class. The woman who

1143
01:05:27,991 --> 01:05:30,126
protected class. The woman who was hired in his place is a

1144
01:05:30,126 --> 01:05:31,161
was hired in his place is a young black woman who is

1145
01:05:31,161 --> 01:05:32,362
young black woman who is incredibly well qualified. I

1146
01:05:32,362 --> 01:05:34,898
incredibly well qualified. I encourage any of you to reach

1147
01:05:34,898 --> 01:05:36,566
encourage any of you to reach out to her, ask her about her

1148
01:05:36,566 --> 01:05:39,602
out to her, ask her about her qualifications. So this whole

1149
01:05:39,602 --> 01:05:42,439
qualifications. So this whole less qualified whatever and then

1150
01:05:42,439 --> 01:05:43,573
less qualified whatever and then a civil service test. I'm not

1151
01:05:43,573 --> 01:05:46,743
a civil service test. I'm not aware of any civil service test

1152
01:05:46,743 --> 01:05:48,812
aware of any civil service test for metro arts employees.

1153
01:05:48,812 --> 01:05:49,846
For metro arts employees. There's the civil service test

1154
01:05:49,846 --> 01:05:51,715
there's the civil service test for like police and fire and

1155
01:05:51,715 --> 01:05:52,816
for like police and fire and public safety. But I would

1156
01:05:52,816 --> 01:05:55,510
public safety. But I would encourage you to ask what

1157
01:05:55,510 --> 01:05:56,119
encourage you to ask what they're talking about there, the

1158
01:05:56,119 --> 01:05:57,220
they're talking about there, the civil service test. And if he

1159
01:05:57,220 --> 01:05:59,122
civil service test. And if he did score higher on said test,

1160
01:05:59,122 --> 01:06:01,240
did score higher on said test, why would he know the score of

1161
01:06:01,240 --> 01:06:02,459
why would he know the score of the person who got the job? Like

1162
01:06:02,459 --> 01:06:04,260
the person who got the job? Like typically when I don't get a

1163
01:06:04,260 --> 01:06:06,362
typically when I don't get a job, they don't tell me how the

1164
01:06:06,362 --> 01:06:06,963
job, they don't tell me how the other person did in their

1165
01:06:06,963 --> 01:06:08,310
other person did in their interview.Sometimes you just

1166
01:06:08,310 --> 01:06:10,300
interview.Sometimes you just don't get the job, y'all. And

1167
01:06:10,300 --> 01:06:13,470
don't get the job, y'all. And like, that's okay. And I would

1168
01:06:13,470 --> 01:06:14,604
like, that's okay. And I would just encourage you to not, like,

1169
01:06:14,604 --> 01:06:16,906
just encourage you to not, like, sweep this under the rug. There

1170
01:06:16,906 --> 01:06:18,775
sweep this under the rug. There was also some stuff in the

1171
01:06:18,775 --> 01:06:19,242
was also some stuff in the nashville scene about

1172
01:06:19,242 --> 01:06:20,710
nashville scene about inappropriate sexual advances,

1173
01:06:20,710 --> 01:06:22,512
inappropriate sexual advances, alleged inappropriate sexual

1174
01:06:22,512 --> 01:06:23,513
alleged inappropriate sexual advances. Nobody's asking about

1175
01:06:23,513 --> 01:06:25,415
advances. Nobody's asking about that. And I just wonder who has

1176
01:06:25,415 --> 01:06:27,283
that. And I just wonder who has metro legal talked to, because

1177
01:06:27,283 --> 01:06:27,884
metro legal talked to, because it sounds like they've only

1178
01:06:27,884 --> 01:06:28,985
it sounds like they've only talked to saad and his lawyers.

1179
01:06:28,985 --> 01:06:33,223
Talked to saad and his lawyers. Thank you. Okay, that concludes

1180
01:06:33,223 --> 01:06:39,223
thank you. Okay, that concludes public comment. Next is agenda

1181
01:06:40,530 --> 01:06:46,436

1231
01:08:37,780 --> 01:08:40,316
you, MISS Porterfield. Thank you, vice mayor. I have a

1232
01:08:40,316 --> 01:08:41,484
you, vice mayor. I have a question before I make a motion.

1233
01:08:41,484 --> 01:08:44,587
Question before I make a motion. If we open up the public

1234
01:08:44,587 --> 01:08:45,755
if we open up the public hearings, I want to make sure

1235
01:08:45,755 --> 01:08:48,291
hearings, I want to make sure that anyone that MAY have come

1236
01:08:48,291 --> 01:08:49,259
that anyone that MAY have come tonight has the opportunity to

1237
01:08:49,259 --> 01:08:52,161
tonight has the opportunity to speak on this. My intent is to

1238
01:08:52,161 --> 01:08:53,129
speak on this. My intent is to recommend a deferral because I

1239
01:08:53,129 --> 01:08:56,466
recommend a deferral because I made it public that we were

1240
01:08:56,466 --> 01:08:57,500
made it public that we were recommending a deferral. There

1241
01:08:57,500 --> 01:08:58,768
recommending a deferral. There were people that wanted to

1242
01:08:58,768 --> 01:08:59,936
were people that wanted to speak, but they are under the

1243
01:08:59,936 --> 01:09:00,970
speak, but they are under the assumption that the public

1244
01:09:00,970 --> 01:09:02,972
assumption that the public hearing will actually happen at

1245
01:09:02,972 --> 01:09:04,207
hearing will actually happen at the time of the deferral. It

1246
01:09:04,207 --> 01:09:06,342
the time of the deferral. It does not look like we have a lot

1247
01:09:06,342 --> 01:09:08,211
does not look like we have a lot of people here. So I don't I

1248
01:09:08,211 --> 01:09:10,179
of people here. So I don't I don't think that we have a lot

1249
01:09:10,179 --> 01:09:11,481
don't think that we have a lot of people here to speak tonight,

1250
01:09:11,481 --> 01:09:13,383
of people here to speak tonight, but I do want to open it up in

1251
01:09:13,383 --> 01:09:15,585
but I do want to open it up in case someone did come up with

1252
01:09:15,585 --> 01:09:16,686
case someone did come up with the expectation. So is there a

1253
01:09:16,686 --> 01:09:17,987
the expectation. So is there a way that we can allow anybody to

1254
01:09:17,987 --> 01:09:19,689
way that we can allow anybody to speak on it, discuss it, move

1255
01:09:19,689 --> 01:09:20,790
speak on it, discuss it, move the deferral and then allow

1256
01:09:20,790 --> 01:09:22,725
the deferral and then allow people to speak on the when we

1257
01:09:22,725 --> 01:09:24,627
people to speak on the when we come assuming a deferral passes,

1258
01:09:24,627 --> 01:09:26,496
come assuming a deferral passes, speak when they come back. Okay.

1259
01:09:26,496 --> 01:09:26,963
Speak when they come back. Okay. So this is a point of

1260
01:09:26,963 --> 01:09:27,764
so this is a point of parliamentary inquiry relative

1261
01:09:27,764 --> 01:09:30,600
parliamentary inquiry relative to the opening of the hearing

1262
01:09:30,600 --> 01:09:31,768
to the opening of the hearing and the deferral and so forth.

1263
01:09:31,768 --> 01:09:34,570
And the deferral and so forth. And so I'm going to put that to

1264
01:09:34,570 --> 01:09:35,905
and so I'm going to put that to special counsel. Darby, can you

1265
01:09:35,905 --> 01:09:37,140
special counsel. Darby, can you please advise and answer the

1266
01:09:37,140 --> 01:09:39,976
please advise and answer the questions of MISS Porterfield?

1267
01:09:39,976 --> 01:09:43,379
Questions of MISS Porterfield? Excuse me? The rules do allow

1268
01:09:43,379 --> 01:09:46,820
excuse me? The rules do allow for a subsequent public hearing.

1269
01:09:46,820 --> 01:09:49,180
For a subsequent public hearing. You will need to make a motion

1270
01:09:49,180 --> 01:09:50,153
you will need to make a motion for that public hearing to set

1271
01:09:50,153 --> 01:09:53,589
for that public hearing to set the date, and it will need to

1272
01:09:53,589 --> 01:09:55,558
the date, and it will need to pass a two thirds vote threshold

1273
01:09:55,558 --> 01:09:56,826
pass a two thirds vote threshold thank you, director darby. One

1274
01:09:56,826 --> 01:09:58,795
thank you, director darby. One more question. Would I need to

1275
01:09:58,795 --> 01:10:00,830
more question. Would I need to make that motion before or after

1276
01:10:00,830 --> 01:10:03,800
make that motion before or after the motion for the deferral? I

1277
01:10:03,800 --> 01:10:07,870
the motion for the deferral? I think that or could they be made

1278
01:10:07,870 --> 01:10:09,973
think that or could they be made together? You should probably

1279
01:10:09,973 --> 01:10:11,140
together? You should probably not make them together because

1280
01:10:11,140 --> 01:10:12,241
not make them together because the motion for deferral has a

1281
01:10:12,241 --> 01:10:13,910
the motion for deferral has a lower vote threshold. So as long

1282
01:10:13,910 --> 01:10:16,245
lower vote threshold. So as long as you're recognized by the vice

1283
01:10:16,245 --> 01:10:19,480
as you're recognized by the vice mayor to make your subsequent

1284
01:10:19,480 --> 01:10:22,385
mayor to make your subsequent motion for a subsequent public

1285
01:10:22,385 --> 01:10:24,870
motion for a subsequent public hearing, then you can move

1286
01:10:24,870 --> 01:10:27,890
hearing, then you can move forward. At that time. Okay. Do

1287
01:10:27,890 --> 01:10:33,963
forward. At that time. Okay. Do I do it before or after? You can

1288
01:10:33,963 --> 01:10:35,198
I do it before or after? You can make your motion for the public

1289
01:10:35,198 --> 01:10:37,367
make your motion for the public hearing before or after,

1290
01:10:37,367 --> 01:10:38,534
hearing before or after, whichever one I think, MISS

1291
01:10:38,534 --> 01:10:41,537
Whichever one I think, MISS Porterfield, if if I MAY, as I

1292
01:10:41,537 --> 01:10:42,739
porterfield, if if I MAY, as I understand it. And then we'll

1293
01:10:42,739 --> 01:10:44,807
understand it. And then we'll just make sure everybody's on

1294
01:10:44,807 --> 01:10:47,343
just make sure everybody's on the same page. Your hope then

1295
01:10:47,343 --> 01:10:49,780
the same page. Your hope then would be, per the advice of

1296
01:10:49,780 --> 01:10:50,146
would be, per the advice of special counsel darby, just in

1297
01:10:50,146 --> 01:10:52,248
special counsel darby, just in an abundance of caution, you

1298
01:10:52,248 --> 01:10:56,219
an abundance of caution, you intend to ask to open the public

1299
01:10:56,219 --> 01:10:58,187
intend to ask to open the public hearing so that we can inquire

1300
01:10:58,187 --> 01:11:00,560
hearing so that we can inquire if there is anybody here in that

1301
01:11:00,560 --> 01:11:02,458
if there is anybody here in that regard. But then subsequent to

1302
01:11:02,458 --> 01:11:05,328
regard. But then subsequent to that, having opened that public

1303
01:11:05,328 --> 01:11:08,531
that, having opened that public hearing, you will then make the

1304
01:11:08,531 --> 01:11:10,633
hearing, you will then make the motion for another public

1305
01:11:10,633 --> 01:11:15,433
motion for another public hearing subsequent to the

1306
01:11:16,172 --> 01:11:17,273
hearing subsequent to the deferral. Is that correct? Okay.

1307
01:11:17,273 --> 01:11:19,542
Deferral. Is that correct? Okay. I just want to make sure we're

1308
01:11:19,542 --> 01:11:21,444
I just want to make sure we're all on the same page. Okay. Go

community here in opposition seek to speak at this time? I

1322
01:11:59,348 --> 01:12:02,552
seek to speak at this time? I think I'll wait for next time,

1323
01:12:02,552 --> 01:12:09,752

1324
01:12:12,261 --> 01:12:13,529
but nope. Nope. MISS. Okay. With one member of the community here

1327
01:12:16,632 --> 01:12:19,435

I'm sorry, I apologize. Please go ahead. My name is nicole

1330
01:12:23,873 --> 01:12:25,641
go ahead. My name is nicole williams. I live in the nation's

1331
01:12:25,641 --> 01:12:27,477
williams. I live in the nation's sorry council member. Horton. I

1332
01:12:27,477 --> 01:12:31,681
sorry council member. Horton. I am only speaking right now

1333
01:12:31,681 --> 01:12:33,850
am only speaking right now because I'm afraid that y'all

1334
01:12:33,850 --> 01:12:35,618
because I'm afraid that y'all won't vote to allow a public

1335
01:12:35,618 --> 01:12:37,186
won't vote to allow a public hearing to happen the next time

1336
01:12:37,186 --> 01:12:39,550
hearing to happen the next time this comes up, because I've seen

1337
01:12:39,550 --> 01:12:40,123
this comes up, because I've seen y'all vote not to allow public

1338
01:12:40,123 --> 01:12:41,824
y'all vote not to allow public hearings to happen on really

1339
01:12:41,824 --> 01:12:43,559
hearings to happen on really important topics. Not y'all, but

1340
01:12:43,559 --> 01:12:46,529
important topics. Not y'all, but a predecessor. Like half of

1341
01:12:46,529 --> 01:12:49,198
a predecessor. Like half of y'all were part of that body too

1342
01:12:49,198 --> 01:12:51,200
y'all were part of that body too so I am, as you could probably

1343
01:12:51,200 --> 01:12:54,700
so I am, as you could probably imagine, in opposition to this,

1344
01:12:54,700 --> 01:12:55,304
imagine, in opposition to this, I don't buy into the whole,

1345
01:12:55,304 --> 01:12:57,106
I don't buy into the whole, well, it's better than it was

1346
01:12:57,106 --> 01:12:58,641
well, it's better than it was the last time it came before

1347
01:12:58,641 --> 01:13:01,377
the last time it came before y'all. Okay, if that's how we're

1348
01:13:01,377 --> 01:13:02,411
y'all. Okay, if that's how we're going to, like, operate

1349
01:13:02,411 --> 01:13:03,613
going to, like, operate government like it's better than

1350
01:13:03,613 --> 01:13:06,349
government like it's better than just take all the cameras,

1351
01:13:06,349 --> 01:13:09,652
just take all the cameras, y'all. Truly, at this point, the

1352
01:13:09,652 --> 01:13:11,554
y'all. Truly, at this point, the way we're headed this, like most

1353
01:13:11,554 --> 01:13:13,422
way we're headed this, like most progressive council ever, is

1354
01:13:13,422 --> 01:13:15,791
progressive council ever, is becoming less and less

1355
01:13:15,791 --> 01:13:18,794
becoming less and less progressive by the hour. I don't

1356
01:13:18,794 --> 01:13:19,996
progressive by the hour. I don't want to live in a surveillance

1357
01:13:19,996 --> 01:13:22,565
want to live in a surveillance state, and I know that sounds

1358
01:13:22,565 --> 01:13:24,433
state, and I know that sounds like a big scary word, but it's

1359
01:13:24,433 --> 01:13:25,340
like a big scary word, but it's true. The more that you allow

1360
01:13:25,340 --> 01:13:30,606
true. The more that you allow the police to have real access t

1361
01:13:30,606 --> 01:13:33,576
the police to have real access t they do not need 99% of the

1362
01:13:33,576 --> 01:13:35,411
they do not need 99% of the time, the more that it becomes

1363
01:13:35,411 --> 01:13:38,581
time, the more that it becomes like the only way to stay off of

1364
01:13:38,581 --> 01:13:41,184
like the only way to stay off of video and have my likeness just

1365
01:13:41,184 --> 01:13:42,185
video and have my likeness just like uploaded to some cloud

1366
01:13:42,185 --> 01:13:44,820
like uploaded to some cloud somewhere that's hackable is to

1367
01:13:44,820 --> 01:13:47,230
somewhere that's hackable is to stay in my house. And I don't

1368
01:13:47,230 --> 01:13:48,224
stay in my house. And I don't want to have to stay in my

1369
01:13:48,224 --> 01:13:49,959
want to have to stay in my house. I already hate it that,

1370
01:13:49,959 --> 01:13:50,960
house. I already hate it that, like every house in my

1371
01:13:50,960 --> 01:13:52,128
like every house in my neighborhood has a ring camera.

1372
01:13:52,128 --> 01:13:54,630
Neighborhood has a ring camera. I can't walk around outside

1373
01:13:54,630 --> 01:13:55,164
I can't walk around outside without feeling like I'm being

1374
01:13:55,164 --> 01:13:56,566
without feeling like I'm being watched. I know that the this

1375
01:13:56,566 --> 01:13:58,701
watched. I know that the this version of justice allegedly is

1376
01:13:58,701 --> 01:14:01,300
version of justice allegedly is not going to be used for

1377
01:14:01,300 --> 01:14:04,400
not going to be used for residential cameras. I don't

1378
01:14:04,400 --> 01:14:05,274
residential cameras. I don't think we have any way to ensure

1379
01:14:05,274 --> 01:14:07,900
think we have any way to ensure that we can have mpd write it

1380
01:14:07,900 --> 01:14:08,211
that we can have mpd write it into a policy. People break

1381
01:14:08,211 --> 01:14:11,180
into a policy. People break policies. Y'all. Like if we want

1382
01:14:11,180 --> 01:14:12,381
policies. Y'all. Like if we want people to trust the police, this

1383
01:14:12,381 --> 01:14:15,170
people to trust the police, this is not the way to get them to do

1384
01:14:15,170 --> 01:14:16,686
is not the way to get them to do it. And that's all I have to

1385
01:14:16,686 --> 01:14:18,487
it. And that's all I have to say. Please allow a public

1386
01:14:18,487 --> 01:14:19,550
say. Please allow a public hearing to happen next time

1387
01:14:19,550 --> 01:14:19,889
hearing to happen next time though, because if not, that

1388
01:14:19,889 --> 01:14:21,757
though, because if not, that would be like a miscarriage of

1389
01:14:21,757 --> 01:14:28,357
would be like a miscarriage of justice. Thank you. Seeing no

1390
01:14:29,599 --> 01:14:32,535
justice. Thank you. Seeing no one else here seeking to speak,

1391
01:14:32,535 --> 01:14:35,371
one else here seeking to speak, I will declare this public

1392
01:14:35,371 --> 01:14:39,242
I will declare this public hearing closed. And it is back

1393
01:14:39,242 --> 01:14:41,430
hearing closed. And it is back to you, MISS Porterfield, for a

1394
01:14:41,430 --> 01:14:44,547
to you, MISS Porterfield, for a motion or motions. Go ahead.

1395
01:14:44,547 --> 01:14:46,849
Motion or motions. Go ahead. Thank you, vice mayor. I'm going

1396
01:14:46,849 --> 01:14:49,285
thank you, vice mayor. I'm going to move for a two meeting

1397
01:14:49,285 --> 01:14:52,188
to move for a two meeting deferral with a re referral back

1398
01:14:52,188 --> 01:14:55,191
deferral with a re referral back to committee. But we wanted to

1399
01:14:55,191 --> 01:14:58,527
to committee. But we wanted to make this a point of order. We

1400
01:14:58,527 --> 01:15:00,529
make this a point of order. We didn't want to do any type of

1401
01:15:00,529 --> 01:15:01,530
didn't want to do any type of automatic deferral because we

1402
01:15:01,530 --> 01:15:02,131
automatic deferral because we wanted people to be able to

1403
01:15:02,131 --> 01:15:03,666
wanted people to be able to speak on the legislation on the

1404
01:15:03,666 --> 01:15:06,350
speak on the legislation on the floor in case there was anything

1405
01:15:06,350 --> 01:15:07,103
floor in case there was anything that people need to say today

1406
01:15:07,103 --> 01:15:08,304
that people need to say today before we brought the

1407
01:15:08,304 --> 01:15:10,390
before we brought the legislation back. So with that

1408
01:15:10,390 --> 01:15:12,108
legislation back. So with that being said, do I need to make a

1409
01:15:12,108 --> 01:15:14,760
being said, do I need to make a motion for approval first to

1410
01:15:14,760 --> 01:15:15,144
motion for approval first to give people the opportunity to

1411
01:15:15,144 --> 01:15:16,979
give people the opportunity to speak and then make a motion for

1412
01:15:16,979 --> 01:15:18,414
speak and then make a motion for deferral? You do okay, move for

1413
01:15:18,414 --> 01:15:20,416
deferral? You do okay, move for approval. Is there a second?

1414
01:15:20,416 --> 01:15:22,652
Approval. Is there a second? Okay, properly moved and

1415
01:15:22,652 --> 01:15:24,420
okay, properly moved and seconded. Is there any

1416
01:15:24,420 --> 01:15:26,656
seconded. Is there any discussion on this resolution at

1417
01:15:26,656 --> 01:15:32,560
discussion on this resolution at this time? Okay. Chair

1418
01:15:32,328 --> 01:15:36,980
this time? Okay. Chair porterfield, seeing none, I'm

1419
01:15:36,980 --> 01:15:38,401

01:15:41,370 --> 01:15:42,371
deferral with the re referral back to committee. And I would

01:15:46,750 --> 01:15:49,845
Purpose of the deferral. Okay. Back to both committees. MISS

Back to both committees. MISS Darby. Can we do the deferral

1427
01:15:52,648 --> 01:15:53,883
darby. Can we do the deferral first and then the motion for a

1428
01:15:53,883 --> 01:15:55,818
first and then the motion for a public hearing subsequently,

1429
01:15:55,818 --> 01:15:57,453
public hearing subsequently, once it is deferred to the

1430
01:15:57,453 --> 01:15:59,488
once it is deferred to the meeting of

1431
01:15:59,488 --> 01:16:01,490
meeting of we need to take up, as I had

we need to take up, as I had understood it prior, the motion

1433
01:16:02,758 --> 01:16:04,927

a lot of people have a lot of questions and concerns about

01:16:26,749 --> 01:16:29,785
questions and concerns about this particular about this

1445
01:16:29,785 --> 01:16:30,920
this particular about this technology. And we want to make

1446
01:16:30,920 --> 01:16:32,755
technology. And we want to make sure I want to make sure that

1447
01:16:32,755 --> 01:16:33,789
sure I want to make sure that council members have the

1448
01:16:33,789 --> 01:16:35,658
council members have the opportunity to get their

1449
01:16:35,658 --> 01:16:36,692
opportunity to get their questions answered. I reached

1450
01:16:36,692 --> 01:16:39,362
questions answered. I reached out to chief gilder to ensure

1451
01:16:39,362 --> 01:16:41,364
out to chief gilder to ensure that any council member who

1452
01:16:41,364 --> 01:16:42,631
that any council member who wants to see a demonstration of

1453
01:16:42,631 --> 01:16:43,766
wants to see a demonstration of the technology will have the

1454
01:16:43,766 --> 01:16:44,934
the technology will have the opportunity to do so again to

1455
01:16:44,934 --> 01:16:47,103
opportunity to do so again to get their questions answered. I

1456
01:16:47,103 --> 01:16:48,738
get their questions answered. I think it's imperative that we

1457
01:16:48,738 --> 01:16:50,339
think it's imperative that we hear from people in the

1458
01:16:50,339 --> 01:16:51,474
hear from people in the community when this came before

1459
01:16:51,474 --> 01:16:52,875
community when this came before us previously, we heard a lot

1460
01:16:52,875 --> 01:16:54,430
us previously, we heard a lot from the community. People had a

1461
01:16:54,430 --> 01:16:55,978
from the community. People had a lot of questions and concerns.

1462
01:16:55,978 --> 01:16:56,979
Lot of questions and concerns. Those questions and concerns

1463
01:16:56,979 --> 01:16:58,814
those questions and concerns have not disappeared. So we want

1464
01:16:58,814 --> 01:16:59,949
have not disappeared. So we want to make sure that we are

1465
01:16:59,949 --> 01:17:01,183
to make sure that we are addressing whichever side of

1466
01:17:01,183 --> 01:17:02,985
addressing whichever side of this you're going to land on. We

1467
01:17:02,985 --> 01:17:05,200
this you're going to land on. We just need to make sure that we

1468
01:17:05,200 --> 01:17:06,122
just need to make sure that we are addressing those comments

1469
01:17:06,122 --> 01:17:07,890
are addressing those comments and questions. So part of the

1470
01:17:07,890 --> 01:17:10,159
and questions. So part of the two meeting deferral is to give

1471
01:17:10,159 --> 01:17:11,160
two meeting deferral is to give council members the opportunity

1472
01:17:11,160 --> 01:17:13,162
council members the opportunity to reach out to chief gilder to

1473
01:17:13,162 --> 01:17:17,666
to reach out to chief gilder to set up a demonstration. Those

1474
01:17:17,666 --> 01:17:18,868
set up a demonstration. Those are going to be one on one

1475
01:17:18,868 --> 01:17:20,669
are going to be one on one demonstrations so that we don't

1476
01:17:20,669 --> 01:17:22,370
demonstrations so that we don't violate any type of open

1477
01:17:22,370 --> 01:17:23,706
violate any type of open meetings act, and that the

1478
01:17:23,706 --> 01:17:24,807
meetings act, and that the question was asked if the

1479
01:17:24,807 --> 01:17:25,841
question was asked if the demonstration could come here.

1480
01:17:25,841 --> 01:17:27,743
Demonstration could come here. It cannot come here. It's not

1481
01:17:27,743 --> 01:17:28,944
it cannot come here. It's not like a mobile unit that can come

1482
01:17:28,944 --> 01:17:30,913
like a mobile unit that can come here. So people will actually

1483
01:17:30,913 --> 01:17:32,181
here. So people will actually need to go to the location to

1484
01:17:32,181 --> 01:17:34,183
need to go to the location to see it. The other part of the

1485
01:17:34,183 --> 01:17:35,985
see it. The other part of the reason for the deferral is there

1486
01:17:35,985 --> 01:17:37,520
reason for the deferral is there were some concerns about the

1487
01:17:37,520 --> 01:17:39,221
were some concerns about the policy as written previously. We

1488
01:17:39,221 --> 01:17:40,923
policy as written previously. We didn't have a policy. Mpd did

1489
01:17:40,923 --> 01:17:43,192
didn't have a policy. Mpd did write a policy, but there are

1490
01:17:43,192 --> 01:17:44,326
write a policy, but there are ome concerns about the policy.

1491
01:17:44,326 --> 01:17:45,594
Ome concerns about the policy. I know council member allen went

1492
01:17:45,594 --> 01:17:47,530
I know council member allen went on record lifting up a few of

1493
01:17:47,530 --> 01:17:49,732
on record lifting up a few of her concerns. I also had some

1494
01:17:49,732 --> 01:17:50,766
her concerns. I also had some concerns that some of the

1495
01:17:50,766 --> 01:17:52,101
concerns that some of the guardrails that mpd discussed

1496
01:17:52,101 --> 01:17:54,837
guardrails that mpd discussed are not explicitly outlined in

1497
01:17:54,837 --> 01:17:56,572
are not explicitly outlined in the policy, and we want to make

1498
01:17:56,572 --> 01:17:58,641
the policy, and we want to make sure that those are outlined. So

1499
01:17:58,641 --> 01:17:59,742
sure that those are outlined. So with that, I will ask my

1500
01:17:59,742 --> 01:18:01,811
with that, I will ask my colleagues, support the deferral

1501
01:18:01,811 --> 01:18:03,112
colleagues, support the deferral as well as the subsequent motion

1502
01:18:03,112 --> 01:18:05,800
as well as the subsequent motion to come about the opening. The

1503
01:18:05,800 --> 01:18:08,417
to come about the opening. The public hearing. Again, okay, so

1504
01:18:08,417 --> 01:18:11,120
public hearing. Again, okay, so what we are on at this juncture

1505
01:18:11,120 --> 01:18:14,256
what we are on at this juncture is a motion to defer two

1506
01:18:14,256 --> 01:18:15,291
is a motion to defer two meetings, that is, to the

1507
01:18:15,291 --> 01:18:19,662
meetings, that is, to the meeting of NOVEMBER 19th with a

1508
01:18:19,662 --> 01:18:21,831
meeting of NOVEMBER 19th with a re referral to both of the

1509
01:18:21,831 --> 01:18:22,932
re referral to both of the committees, budget and finance,

1510
01:18:22,932 --> 01:18:25,401
committees, budget and finance, public health and safety. And so

1511
01:18:25,401 --> 01:18:27,636
public health and safety. And so we are now on discussion on the

1512
01:18:27,636 --> 01:18:32,241
we are now on discussion on the motion to defer two meetings.

1513
01:18:32,241 --> 01:18:35,377
Motion to defer two meetings. Okay. MISS Johnston, you are

1514
01:18:35,377 --> 01:18:38,314
okay. MISS Johnston, you are recognized. Thank you. A one

1515
01:18:38,314 --> 01:18:40,416
recognized. Thank you. A one meeting deferral is over three

1516
01:18:40,416 --> 01:18:42,351
meeting deferral is over three weeks from now. And so I'm just

1517
01:18:42,351 --> 01:18:43,252
weeks from now. And so I'm just wondering, since we've actually

1518
01:18:43,252 --> 01:18:44,487
wondering, since we've actually deferred this in a year, we let

1519
01:18:44,487 --> 01:18:47,890
deferred this in a year, we let this go a year ago. So here we

1520
01:18:47,890 --> 01:18:48,290
this go a year ago. So here we are. It's come full circle a

1521
01:18:48,290 --> 01:18:49,992
are. It's come full circle a year. If the administration has

1522
01:18:49,992 --> 01:18:52,962
year. If the administration has any opinion about a one meeting

1523
01:18:52,962 --> 01:18:53,963
any opinion about a one meeting deferral, which again, is

1524
01:18:53,963 --> 01:18:55,331
deferral, which again, is technically over three weeks

1525
01:18:55,331 --> 01:18:57,533
technically over three weeks from now, on NOVEMBER the 7th,

1526
01:18:57,533 --> 01:18:59,680
from now, on NOVEMBER the 7th, or if they're okay with a22

1527
01:18:59,680 --> 01:19:00,690
or if they're okay with a22 meeting deferral, what if

1528
01:19:00,690 --> 01:19:03,472
meeting deferral, what if there's any implications to that

1529
01:19:03,472 --> 01:19:05,407
there's any implications to that okay. I'm happy to direct your

1530
01:19:05,407 --> 01:19:06,375
okay. I'm happy to direct your question to the administration.

1531
01:19:06,375 --> 01:19:07,910
Question to the administration. MR. Rosenberg, you're recognized

1532
01:19:07,910 --> 01:19:13,883
MR. Rosenberg, you're recognized thank you. Oh, I've got it

1533
01:19:13,883 --> 01:19:19,210
thank you. Oh, I've got it turned on. It's okay. Technical

1534
01:19:19,210 --> 01:19:24,159
turned on. It's okay. Technical difficulties. Thank you. All

1535
01:19:24,159 --> 01:19:28,163
difficulties. Thank you. All right. Council member, our

1536
01:19:28,163 --> 01:19:29,231
right. Council member, our preference would be a one

1537
01:19:29,231 --> 01:19:29,832
preference would be a one meeting deferral. We would

1538
01:19:29,832 --> 01:19:31,330
meeting deferral. We would support a one meeting deferral.

1539
01:19:31,330 --> 01:19:33,269
Support a one meeting deferral. To your point, it's 23 days.

1540
01:19:33,269 --> 01:19:34,570
To your point, it's 23 days. Normally, a two meeting deferral

1541
01:19:34,570 --> 01:19:37,473
normally, a two meeting deferral is 28 days, and a 23 day

1542
01:19:37,473 --> 01:19:39,708
is 28 days, and a 23 day deferral would you'd still have

1543
01:19:39,708 --> 01:19:41,410
deferral would you'd still have the opportunity at that point

1544
01:19:41,410 --> 01:19:43,345
the opportunity at that point for further delay, if you so

1545
01:19:43,345 --> 01:19:45,180
for further delay, if you so choose. But it wouldn't bind you

1546
01:19:45,180 --> 01:19:46,315
choose. But it wouldn't bind you to five plus or five week

1547
01:19:46,315 --> 01:19:49,218
to five plus or five week deferral. Thank you. Can I make

1548
01:19:49,218 --> 01:19:50,953
deferral. Thank you. Can I make a one meeting deferral motion?

1549
01:19:50,953 --> 01:19:54,890
A one meeting deferral motion? You MAY. Yes. I'd like to move a

1550
01:19:54,890 --> 01:19:55,991
you MAY. Yes. I'd like to move a one meeting deferral okay. And

1551
01:19:55,991 --> 01:19:57,993
one meeting deferral okay. And is there there's a second okay.

1552
01:19:57,993 --> 01:20:00,195
Is there there's a second okay. So now then we are on discussion

1553
01:20:00,195 --> 01:20:04,133
so now then we are on discussion of a motion to defer one

1554
01:20:04,133 --> 01:20:07,503
of a motion to defer one meeting. MISS Allen. Go ahead.

1555
01:20:07,503 --> 01:20:10,506
Meeting. MISS Allen. Go ahead. Oh, I'm sorry, you're just so

1556
01:20:10,506 --> 01:20:11,607
oh, I'm sorry, you're just so close right there. I'm just

1557
01:20:11,607 --> 01:20:12,741
close right there. I'm just looking at you while you're

1558
01:20:12,741 --> 01:20:13,842
looking at you while you're talking. You're not even turning

1559
01:20:13,842 --> 01:20:14,777
talking. You're not even turning your mic on. Thank you, MADAM

1560
01:20:14,777 --> 01:20:15,878
Your mic on. Thank you, MADAM Chair. Would that include

1561
01:20:15,878 --> 01:20:17,680
chair. Would that include referrals to both committees as

1562
01:20:17,680 --> 01:20:22,170
referrals to both committees as well? Okay. Yes it does. Okay.

1563
01:20:22,170 --> 01:20:27,990
Well? Okay. Yes it does. Okay. So properly moved and seconded a

1564
01:20:27,990 --> 01:20:28,991
so properly moved and seconded a one meeting deferral. MISS

1565
01:20:28,991 --> 01:20:32,227
One meeting deferral. MISS Porterfield, you are recognized

1566
01:20:32,227 --> 01:20:33,228
porterfield, you are recognized regarding the one meeting

1567
01:20:33,228 --> 01:20:35,731
regarding the one meeting deferral motion. Thank you, vice

1568
01:20:35,731 --> 01:20:37,533
deferral motion. Thank you, vice mayor. When we discussed this in

1569
01:20:37,533 --> 01:20:40,569
mayor. When we discussed this in committee, my intent was a one

1570
01:20:40,569 --> 01:20:41,670
committee, my intent was a one meeting deferral. And both

1571
01:20:41,670 --> 01:20:43,806
meeting deferral. And both committees considered two

1572
01:20:43,806 --> 01:20:46,141
committees considered two meeting deferral. So my intent

1573
01:20:46,141 --> 01:20:47,977
meeting deferral. So my intent with the two meeting deferral is

1574
01:20:47,977 --> 01:20:48,844
with the two meeting deferral is honoring the will of two

1575
01:20:48,844 --> 01:20:50,120
honoring the will of two committees that it came before.

1576
01:20:50,120 --> 01:20:52,848
Committees that it came before. So my preference would be a two

1577
01:20:52,848 --> 01:20:53,983
so my preference would be a two meeting deferral to give people

1578
01:20:53,983 --> 01:20:56,850
meeting deferral to give people enough time to go and make sure

1579
01:20:56,850 --> 01:20:58,870
enough time to go and make sure that they have the opportunity

1580
01:20:58,870 --> 01:21:01,490
that they have the opportunity to go and see the demonstration.

1581
01:21:01,490 --> 01:21:04,960
To go and see the demonstration. Thank you. Okay. MR. On the one

1582
01:21:04,960 --> 01:21:06,996
thank you. Okay. MR. On the one meeting deferral motion. Go

1583
01:21:06,996 --> 01:21:08,263
meeting deferral motion. Go ahead sir. Thank you, MADAM Vice

1584
01:21:08,263 --> 01:21:09,798
ahead sir. Thank you, MADAM Vice mayor. Colleagues, I just I rise

1585
01:21:09,798 --> 01:21:12,968
mayor. Colleagues, I just I rise in opposition to the one meeting

1586
01:21:12,968 --> 01:21:14,690
in opposition to the one meeting deferral in favor of a two

1587
01:21:14,690 --> 01:21:15,938
deferral in favor of a two meeting deferral simply because

1588
01:21:15,938 --> 01:21:17,720
meeting deferral simply because I know my colleague, council

1589
01:21:17,720 --> 01:21:18,107
I know my colleague, council member hoffman, is going to

1590
01:21:18,107 --> 01:21:19,942
member hoffman, is going to encourage all of us to visit

1591
01:21:19,942 --> 01:21:22,770
encourage all of us to visit with him and to view this

1592
01:21:22,770 --> 01:21:23,245
with him and to view this facility. And I would encourage

1593
01:21:23,245 --> 01:21:25,314
facility. And I would encourage all of us to do the exact same.

1594
01:21:25,314 --> 01:21:27,383
All of us to do the exact same. The reason why I rise in favor

1595
01:21:27,383 --> 01:21:29,318
the reason why I rise in favor of a two meeting deferral over a

1596
01:21:29,318 --> 01:21:30,319
of a two meeting deferral over a one meeting deferral is

1597
01:21:30,319 --> 01:21:31,487
one meeting deferral is specifically to give each and

1598
01:21:31,487 --> 01:21:32,621
specifically to give each and every colleague that opportunity

1599
01:21:32,621 --> 01:21:34,323
every colleague that opportunity to do that. We are a 40 member

1600
01:21:34,323 --> 01:21:37,493
to do that. We are a 40 member body and we cannot do that as a

1601
01:21:37,493 --> 01:21:39,728
body and we cannot do that as a conglomerated group as as

1602
01:21:39,728 --> 01:21:40,829
conglomerated group as as council member, porterfield

1603
01:21:40,829 --> 01:21:42,665
council member, porterfield stated. Because of sunshine law

1604
01:21:42,665 --> 01:21:45,601
stated. Because of sunshine law reasons. So having a, having a

1605
01:21:45,601 --> 01:21:47,403
reasons. So having a, having a two meeting deferral from the

1606
01:21:47,403 --> 01:21:49,338
two meeting deferral from the outright from the onset will

1607
01:21:49,338 --> 01:21:51,740
outright from the onset will provide us the opportunity to do

1608
01:21:51,740 --> 01:21:53,676
provide us the opportunity to do all of the things that we need

1609
01:21:53,676 --> 01:21:55,444
all of the things that we need to beforehand before this comes

1610
01:21:55,444 --> 01:21:56,578
to beforehand before this comes back before our body, so that

1611
01:21:56,578 --> 01:21:58,347
back before our body, so that we're not perpetually asking for

1612
01:21:58,347 --> 01:21:59,348
we're not perpetually asking for deferral after deferral after

1613
01:21:59,348 --> 01:22:01,650
deferral after deferral after deferral to provide us all the

1614
01:22:01,650 --> 01:22:03,986
deferral to provide us all the opportunity. Take. Taking the

1615
01:22:03,986 --> 01:22:05,954
opportunity. Take. Taking the time to do this right is worth

1616
01:22:05,954 --> 01:22:07,790
time to do this right is worth it. So I rise in opposition of a

1617
01:22:07,790 --> 01:22:09,758
it. So I rise in opposition of a one meeting deferral in favor of

1618
01:22:09,758 --> 01:22:10,926
one meeting deferral in favor of two meeting deferral. Thank you,

1619
01:22:10,926 --> 01:22:14,730
two meeting deferral. Thank you, MR. T. MR. Hoffman, you are

1620
01:22:14,730 --> 01:22:16,632
MR. T. MR. Hoffman, you are recognized, sir. Thank you, vice

1621
01:22:16,632 --> 01:22:18,701
recognized, sir. Thank you, vice mayor. And my colleague is

1622
01:22:18,701 --> 01:22:20,436
mayor. And my colleague is correct. I am going to encourage

1623
01:22:20,436 --> 01:22:21,804
correct. I am going to encourage all of you to go and tour the

1624
01:22:21,804 --> 01:22:25,607
all of you to go and tour the facility. I'm speaking on behalf

1625
01:22:25,607 --> 01:22:26,775
facility. I'm speaking on behalf of a one meeting deferral.

1626
01:22:26,775 --> 01:22:29,311
Of a one meeting deferral. Simply because I believe that 23

1627
01:22:29,311 --> 01:22:32,147
simply because I believe that 23 days is an adequate amount of

1628
01:22:32,147 --> 01:22:35,150
days is an adequate amount of time to get there to do a tour

1629
01:22:35,150 --> 01:22:37,886
time to get there to do a tour and could that could easily

1630
01:22:37,886 --> 01:22:41,123
and could that could easily support us all. It it also

1631
01:22:41,123 --> 01:22:42,991
support us all. It it also starts to bump up to the

1632
01:22:42,991 --> 01:22:46,395
starts to bump up to the legislative calendar of some

1633
01:22:46,395 --> 01:22:48,397
legislative calendar of some other very hot button items. If

1634
01:22:48,397 --> 01:22:50,332
other very hot button items. If we do a two meeting deferral. So

1635
01:22:50,332 --> 01:22:54,336
we do a two meeting deferral. So I just would ask you to be give

1636
01:22:54,336 --> 01:22:56,305
I just would ask you to be give a little grace to all of us as

1637
01:22:56,305 --> 01:22:57,606
a little grace to all of us as we're about to enter some tough

1638
01:22:57,606 --> 01:23:03,780
we're about to enter some tough conversations. Thank you. Okay.

1639
01:23:03,780 --> 01:23:04,847
Conversations. Thank you. Okay. Chair evans, on the one meeting

1640
01:23:04,847 --> 01:23:07,916
chair evans, on the one meeting deferral motion. Thank you, vice

1641
01:23:07,916 --> 01:23:10,753
deferral motion. Thank you, vice mayor. So, ordinarily, I'd be

1642
01:23:10,753 --> 01:23:11,954
mayor. So, ordinarily, I'd be totally cool with a one meeting

1643
01:23:11,954 --> 01:23:13,655
totally cool with a one meeting deferral. I'm kind of feeling

1644
01:23:13,655 --> 01:23:14,757
deferral. I'm kind of feeling the two meeting deferral

1645
01:23:14,757 --> 01:23:15,924
the two meeting deferral specifically for two reasons.

1646
01:23:15,924 --> 01:23:18,894
Specifically for two reasons. Number one, our meeting, the one

1647
01:23:18,894 --> 01:23:20,796
number one, our meeting, the one meeting deferral is going to put

1648
01:23:20,796 --> 01:23:22,731
meeting deferral is going to put us at the first meeting of the

1649
01:23:22,731 --> 01:23:23,832
us at the first meeting of the month in NOVEMBER, which means

1650
01:23:23,832 --> 01:23:25,400
month in NOVEMBER, which means that we're going to have public

1651
01:23:25,400 --> 01:23:27,169
that we're going to have public hearing on zoning matters at

1652
01:23:27,169 --> 01:23:28,370
hearing on zoning matters at that time. We're shifting our

1653
01:23:28,370 --> 01:23:30,472
that time. We're shifting our our day of our meeting because

1654
01:23:30,472 --> 01:23:32,174
our day of our meeting because of the election. So I think

1655
01:23:32,174 --> 01:23:33,375
of the election. So I think there's going to be some added

1656
01:23:33,375 --> 01:23:34,610
there's going to be some added confusion and thought around

1657
01:23:34,610 --> 01:23:36,545
confusion and thought around that that MAY dissuade people

1658
01:23:36,545 --> 01:23:38,981
that that MAY dissuade people from wanting to speak about this

1659
01:23:38,981 --> 01:23:40,783
from wanting to speak about this issue or learn more about this

1660
01:23:40,783 --> 01:23:42,840
issue or learn more about this issue in the meantime. And I

1661
01:23:42,840 --> 01:23:43,819
issue in the meantime. And I think the other thing that I

1662
01:23:43,819 --> 01:23:45,621
think the other thing that I want to make note of is I did

1663
01:23:45,621 --> 01:23:46,789
want to make note of is I did request from deputy chief gilder

1664
01:23:46,789 --> 01:23:49,424
request from deputy chief gilder a list of everybody who had

1665
01:23:49,424 --> 01:23:53,195
a list of everybody who had attended the preview, basically

1666
01:23:53,195 --> 01:23:54,229
attended the preview, basically of the software previously. I

1667
01:23:54,229 --> 01:23:57,132
of the software previously. I have that list. And so it's one

1668
01:23:57,132 --> 01:23:59,670
have that list. And so it's one of those things that my, my time

1669
01:23:59,670 --> 01:24:00,702
of those things that my, my time normally is if you give people

1670
01:24:00,702 --> 01:24:02,504
normally is if you give people too long, they're going to wait

1671
01:24:02,504 --> 01:24:03,172
too long, they're going to wait till the last minute anyway, but

1672
01:24:03,172 --> 01:24:04,573
till the last minute anyway, but it's not going to be a

1673
01:24:04,573 --> 01:24:06,175
it's not going to be a reasonable expectation that if

1674
01:24:06,175 --> 01:24:08,177
reasonable expectation that if you don't go in this two meeting

1675
01:24:08,177 --> 01:24:10,679
you don't go in this two meeting deferral window, potentially,

1676
01:24:10,679 --> 01:24:12,581
deferral window, potentially, that it's not going to be really

1677
01:24:12,581 --> 01:24:13,682
that it's not going to be really good grounds for any further

1678
01:24:13,682 --> 01:24:14,716
good grounds for any further deferrals that you didn't have

1679
01:24:14,716 --> 01:24:17,786
deferrals that you didn't have time. And so I want to

1680
01:24:17,786 --> 01:24:19,822
time. And so I want to eliminate, you know, that being

1681
01:24:19,822 --> 01:24:20,923
eliminate, you know, that being an issue or something that

1682
01:24:20,923 --> 01:24:23,250
an issue or something that anyone attempts to, you know,

1683
01:24:23,250 --> 01:24:26,662
anyone attempts to, you know, want to bring forward as a defer

1684
01:24:26,662 --> 01:24:28,797
want to bring forward as a defer discussion. Thank you. Thank you

1685
01:24:28,797 --> 01:24:31,767
discussion. Thank you. Thank you chair. Next, council member hill

1686
01:24:31,767 --> 01:24:32,901
chair. Next, council member hill regarding the one meeting

1687
01:24:32,901 --> 01:24:35,700
regarding the one meeting deferral motion. Thank you,

1688
01:24:35,700 --> 01:24:36,972
deferral motion. Thank you, MADAM Vice mayor. I stand in

1689
01:24:36,972 --> 01:24:38,106
MADAM Vice mayor. I stand in favor of the one meeting

1690
01:24:38,106 --> 01:24:39,308
favor of the one meeting deferral because I really

1691
01:24:39,308 --> 01:24:40,442
deferral because I really believe that 23 days is plenty

1692
01:24:40,442 --> 01:24:42,244
believe that 23 days is plenty long enough. I think there's a

1693
01:24:42,244 --> 01:24:43,412
long enough. I think there's a fair amount of us who have

1694
01:24:43,412 --> 01:24:45,347
fair amount of us who have already toured it, and so I

1695
01:24:45,347 --> 01:24:46,515
already toured it, and so I don't think we need a long

1696
01:24:46,515 --> 01:24:48,784
don't think we need a long extension of a lot for the rest

1697
01:24:48,784 --> 01:24:51,353
extension of a lot for the rest of the folks to go through. And

1698
01:24:51,353 --> 01:24:53,355
of the folks to go through. And I think 23 days is long enough.

1699
01:24:53,355 --> 01:24:55,190
I think 23 days is long enough. Thank you, MISS Hill. Is anyone

discussion on the motion to approve first in the queue.

2115
01:52:28,408 --> 01:52:29,443
Approve first in the queue. Council member styles, you are

2116
01:52:29,443 --> 01:52:33,280
council member styles, you are recognized. Thank you very much.

2117
01:52:33,280 --> 01:52:35,949
Recognized. Thank you very much. Vice mayor. When this came

2118
01:52:35,949 --> 01:52:39,152
vice mayor. When this came before us, I believe it was two

2119
01:52:39,152 --> 01:52:41,555
before us, I believe it was two meetings ago. I voted no. Given

2120
01:52:41,555 --> 01:52:43,423
meetings ago. I voted no. Given all of what has transpired in

2121
01:52:43,423 --> 01:52:45,526
all of what has transpired in metro arts, and we are in the

2122
01:52:45,526 --> 01:52:47,394
metro arts, and we are in the midst of trying to get things to

2123
01:52:47,394 --> 01:52:49,563
midst of trying to get things to be better and to rebuild trust

2124
01:52:49,563 --> 01:52:52,399
be better and to rebuild trust and transparency. This

2125
01:52:52,399 --> 01:52:55,469
and transparency. This settlement is not the way this

2126
01:52:55,469 --> 01:52:56,503
settlement is not the way this this individual the complaint

2127
01:52:56,503 --> 01:52:58,672
this individual the complaint does not clearly state really

2128
01:52:58,672 --> 01:53:02,442
does not clearly state really that his his claims are valid. I

2129
01:53:02,442 --> 01:53:04,645
that his his claims are valid. I think we have received several

2130
01:53:04,645 --> 01:53:05,512
think we have received several emails concerning this

2131
01:53:05,512 --> 01:53:07,714
emails concerning this settlement regarding actions

2132
01:53:07,714 --> 01:53:10,350
settlement regarding actions that this individual engaged in

2133
01:53:10,350 --> 01:53:13,387
that this individual engaged in during all of the shenanigans

2134
01:53:13,387 --> 01:53:16,189
during all of the shenanigans from last year. I think this is

2135
01:53:16,189 --> 01:53:19,192
from last year. I think this is an unnecessary settlement. I

2136
01:53:19,192 --> 01:53:22,162
an unnecessary settlement. I think if MR. Saad would like to

2137
01:53:22,162 --> 01:53:23,297
think if MR. Saad would like to move forward and take us to

2138
01:53:23,297 --> 01:53:26,333
move forward and take us to court, then so be it. I don't

2139
01:53:26,333 --> 01:53:28,100
court, then so be it. I don't think he has a case. I don't

2140
01:53:28,100 --> 01:53:29,870
think he has a case. I don't think throwing money out of the

2141
01:53:29,870 --> 01:53:30,938
think throwing money out of the money that has been set aside

2142
01:53:30,938 --> 01:53:33,607
money that has been set aside from metro arts is the right

2143
01:53:33,607 --> 01:53:34,808
from metro arts is the right thing to do, and I think we

2144
01:53:34,808 --> 01:53:37,511
thing to do, and I think we would be negligent in our duties

2145
01:53:37,511 --> 01:53:41,848
would be negligent in our duties to say that this is the same as

2146
01:53:41,848 --> 01:53:42,849
to say that this is the same as giving money to former

2147
01:53:42,849 --> 01:53:45,118
giving money to former directors, saying who was under

2148
01:53:45,118 --> 01:53:47,788
directors, saying who was under so much harassment in order to

2149
01:53:47,788 --> 01:53:50,557
so much harassment in order to leave. And then suddenly we get

2150
01:53:50,557 --> 01:53:51,592
leave. And then suddenly we get this judgment that seemed to

2151
01:53:51,592 --> 01:53:53,393
this judgment that seemed to come out of nowhere that we

2152
01:53:53,393 --> 01:53:55,195
come out of nowhere that we should pay this man. I don't

2153
01:53:55,195 --> 01:53:56,997
should pay this man. I don't think it's right. And I hope

2154
01:53:56,997 --> 01:54:00,467
think it's right. And I hope that we will all vote no. Thank

2155
01:54:00,467 --> 01:54:03,403
that we will all vote no. Thank you, MISS Styles. COUNCILMAN

2156
01:54:03,403 --> 01:54:06,173
You, MISS Styles. COUNCILMAN Parker, you're recognized, sir.

2157
01:54:06,173 --> 01:54:08,575
Parker, you're recognized, sir. Thank you, vice mayor. So I

2158
01:54:08,575 --> 01:54:11,111
thank you, vice mayor. So I remain very concerned about this

2159
01:54:11,111 --> 01:54:12,112
remain very concerned about this proposed settlement. You know,

2160
01:54:12,112 --> 01:54:14,348
proposed settlement. You know, the complaint centers around a

2161
01:54:14,348 --> 01:54:17,584
the complaint centers around a failure to hire claim based on

2162
01:54:17,584 --> 01:54:18,510
failure to hire claim based on either retaliation or

2163
01:54:18,510 --> 01:54:20,487
either retaliation or discrimination against a

2164
01:54:20,487 --> 01:54:23,357
discrimination against a protected class. I think there

2165
01:54:23,357 --> 01:54:24,458
protected class. I think there are other reasons that this

2166
01:54:24,458 --> 01:54:26,727
are other reasons that this person was not hired that are

2167
01:54:26,727 --> 01:54:28,562
person was not hired that are very apparent. If you look at

2168
01:54:28,562 --> 01:54:29,863
very apparent. If you look at the complaint paragraph 26, his

2169
01:54:29,863 --> 01:54:33,367
the complaint paragraph 26, his application was not considered

2170
01:54:33,367 --> 01:54:35,202
application was not considered despite MR. Saad's overwhelming

2171
01:54:35,202 --> 01:54:36,269
despite MR. Saad's overwhelming qualification for all three of

2172
01:54:36,269 --> 01:54:37,437
qualification for all three of the positions and the fact that

2173
01:54:37,437 --> 01:54:38,605
the positions and the fact that he was currently successfully

2174
01:54:38,605 --> 01:54:39,640
he was currently successfully performing one of the three

2175
01:54:39,640 --> 01:54:40,674
performing one of the three jobs. That position was the

2176
01:54:40,674 --> 01:54:42,609
jobs. That position was the contract grant manager position.

2177
01:54:42,609 --> 01:54:45,445
Contract grant manager position. The application period

2178
01:54:45,445 --> 01:54:46,480
the application period referenced here is on or about

2179
01:54:46,480 --> 01:54:51,840
referenced here is on or about JULY 30th, 2023. If you'll think

2180
01:54:51,840 --> 01:54:52,185
JULY 30th, 2023. If you'll think back to the discussions we've

2181
01:54:52,185 --> 01:54:53,286
back to the discussions we've been having about metro arts.

2182
01:54:53,286 --> 01:54:54,955
Been having about metro arts. That was the period when the

2183
01:54:54,955 --> 01:54:57,257
that was the period when the arts commission voted for an

2184
01:54:57,257 --> 01:54:58,325
arts commission voted for an equitable arts funding formula

2185
01:54:58,325 --> 01:55:00,694
equitable arts funding formula in JULY, a decision which was

2186
01:55:00,694 --> 01:55:02,863
in JULY, a decision which was reversed in AUGUST by the

2187
01:55:02,863 --> 01:55:03,830
reversed in AUGUST by the commission has had disastrous

2188
01:55:03,830 --> 01:55:07,834
commission has had disastrous results. We have spent the last

2189
01:55:07,834 --> 01:55:09,670
results. We have spent the last 16 months trying to clean that

2190
01:55:09,670 --> 01:55:11,672
16 months trying to clean that mess up, trying to address that.

2191
01:55:11,672 --> 01:55:13,674
Mess up, trying to address that. So, you know, the claim that he

2192
01:55:13,674 --> 01:55:15,242
so, you know, the claim that he was successfully currently

2193
01:55:15,242 --> 01:55:16,309
was successfully currently performing one of the jobs and

2194
01:55:16,309 --> 01:55:18,378
performing one of the jobs and thus felt entitled to this

2195
01:55:18,378 --> 01:55:20,800
thus felt entitled to this position, I think is absurd,

2196
01:55:20,800 --> 01:55:22,349
position, I think is absurd, given what we know was happening

2197
01:55:22,349 --> 01:55:23,550
given what we know was happening at arts at the time. And I

2198
01:55:23,550 --> 01:55:24,451
at arts at the time. And I understand there are some

2199
01:55:24,451 --> 01:55:25,452
understand there are some procedural challenges with

2200
01:55:25,452 --> 01:55:27,654
procedural challenges with defending this case from metro's

2201
01:55:27,654 --> 01:55:30,190
defending this case from metro's perspective, namely that then

2202
01:55:30,190 --> 01:55:31,324
perspective, namely that then director daniel singh is not in

2203
01:55:31,324 --> 01:55:34,194
director daniel singh is not in nashville, presumably has not

2204
01:55:34,194 --> 01:55:35,328
nashville, presumably has not been served. There's no return

2205
01:55:35,328 --> 01:55:38,899
been served. There's no return in the system. And I understand

2206
01:55:38,899 --> 01:55:39,900
in the system. And I understand that. But there were other

2207
01:55:39,900 --> 01:55:41,401
that. But there were other people involved in this hiring

2208
01:55:41,401 --> 01:55:43,503
people involved in this hiring process. I believe a panels were

2209
01:55:43,503 --> 01:55:45,706
process. I believe a panels were assembled to look at the

2210
01:55:45,706 --> 01:55:46,840
assembled to look at the applicants for all of these

2211
01:55:46,840 --> 01:55:48,975
applicants for all of these jobs. Presumably, not all of

2212
01:55:48,975 --> 01:55:50,143
jobs. Presumably, not all of those people have left nashville

2213
01:55:50,143 --> 01:55:52,279
those people have left nashville in the last year. Some of them

2214
01:55:52,279 --> 01:55:53,313
in the last year. Some of them are probably metro people. I

2215
01:55:53,313 --> 01:55:54,314
are probably metro people. I don't know the composition of

2216
01:55:54,314 --> 01:55:56,490
don't know the composition of those panels, but there are

2217
01:55:56,490 --> 01:55:57,117
those panels, but there are people who are familiar with the

2218
01:55:57,117 --> 01:56:00,353
people who are familiar with the situation that metro can ask to

2219
01:56:00,353 --> 01:56:03,423
situation that metro can ask to be deposed to, to be witnesses.

2220
01:56:03,423 --> 01:56:06,226
Be deposed to, to be witnesses. Et cetera. And I understand it

2221
01:56:06,226 --> 01:56:09,620
et cetera. And I understand it might be challenging, but I with

2222
01:56:09,620 --> 01:56:10,330
might be challenging, but I with my no vote on this settlement,

2223
01:56:10,330 --> 01:56:11,998
my no vote on this settlement, I'm asking metro legal to do

2224
01:56:11,998 --> 01:56:13,967
I'm asking metro legal to do that and to go defend metro in

2225
01:56:13,967 --> 01:56:17,504
that and to go defend metro in this case. Lastly, you know,

2226
01:56:17,504 --> 01:56:18,705
this case. Lastly, you know, there's a lot of talk about

2227
01:56:18,705 --> 01:56:20,607
there's a lot of talk about turning the page here. I don't

2228
01:56:20,607 --> 01:56:23,577
turning the page here. I don't think we're turning the page by

2229
01:56:23,577 --> 01:56:26,480
think we're turning the page by using the set aside arts fund to

2230
01:56:26,480 --> 01:56:29,349
using the set aside arts fund to to settle this claim. I think we

2231
01:56:29,349 --> 01:56:30,484
to settle this claim. I think we have done virtually nothing to

2232
01:56:30,484 --> 01:56:32,519
have done virtually nothing to address the central conflict

2233
01:56:32,519 --> 01:56:34,521
address the central conflict that a lot of this arose out of,

2234
01:56:34,521 --> 01:56:37,491
that a lot of this arose out of, which is the question of

2235
01:56:37,491 --> 01:56:38,558
which is the question of equitable arts funding, which

2236
01:56:38,558 --> 01:56:40,600
equitable arts funding, which is, you know, what is the

2237
01:56:40,600 --> 01:56:40,527
is, you know, what is the balance between small

2238
01:56:40,527 --> 01:56:43,290
balance between small organizations getting funding

2239
01:56:43,290 --> 01:56:43,997
organizations getting funding versus these large legacy

2240
01:56:43,997 --> 01:56:45,999
versus these large legacy organizations getting funding?

2241
01:56:45,999 --> 01:56:47,000
Organizations getting funding? That tension has not been

2242
01:56:47,000 --> 01:56:49,350
that tension has not been resolved. The corrective actions

2243
01:56:49,350 --> 01:56:50,137
resolved. The corrective actions that the mayor's office and that

2244
01:56:50,137 --> 01:56:52,239
that the mayor's office and that we took just added more money to

2245
01:56:52,239 --> 01:56:53,306
we took just added more money to make everyone whole in that

2246
01:56:53,306 --> 01:56:54,674
make everyone whole in that process. We have not addressed

2247
01:56:54,674 --> 01:56:55,709
process. We have not addressed the balance, the fundamental

2248
01:56:55,709 --> 01:56:57,744
the balance, the fundamental tension there between funding

2249
01:56:57,744 --> 01:56:58,779
tension there between funding these legacy orgs and funding

2250
01:56:58,779 --> 01:57:00,647
these legacy orgs and funding the small organizations. And

2251
01:57:00,647 --> 01:57:01,615
the small organizations. And this settlement would do nothing

2252
01:57:01,615 --> 01:57:04,484
this settlement would do nothing to get us any closer to

2253
01:57:04,484 --> 01:57:05,552
to get us any closer to resolving that tension. So I'll

2254
01:57:05,552 --> 01:57:06,920
resolving that tension. So I'll be voting no, thank you, MR.

2255
01:57:06,920 --> 01:57:09,956
Be voting no, thank you, MR. Parker. COUNCILWOMAN Welsh,

2256
01:57:09,956 --> 01:57:11,570
parker. COUNCILWOMAN Welsh, you're recognized, ma'am. Thank

2257
01:57:11,570 --> 01:57:14,561
you're recognized, ma'am. Thank you, vice mayor. I rise against

2258
01:57:14,561 --> 01:57:15,695
you, vice mayor. I rise against going ahead with the settlement

2259
01:57:15,695 --> 01:57:20,667
going ahead with the settlement with MR. Saad. The claim that

2260
01:57:20,667 --> 01:57:21,802
with MR. Saad. The claim that MR. Saad made is extremely

2261
01:57:21,802 --> 01:57:23,770
MR. Saad made is extremely vague. And he offers no

2262
01:57:23,770 --> 01:57:24,805
vague. And he offers no documentation or evidence to

2263
01:57:24,805 --> 01:57:26,673
documentation or evidence to support anything that he claims

2264
01:57:26,673 --> 01:57:29,576
support anything that he claims was the behavior of metro. In

2265
01:57:29,576 --> 01:57:31,511
was the behavior of metro. In these last few weeks, as I've

2266
01:57:31,511 --> 01:57:33,790
these last few weeks, as I've been researching this, when I

2267
01:57:33,790 --> 01:57:35,282
been researching this, when I asked for the deferral, I have

2268
01:57:35,282 --> 01:57:36,283
asked for the deferral, I have heard some very disturbing

2269
01:57:36,283 --> 01:57:37,417
heard some very disturbing things about MR. Saad and his

2270
01:57:37,417 --> 01:57:39,352
things about MR. Saad and his behaviors when he was in this

2271
01:57:39,352 --> 01:57:41,321
behaviors when he was in this position prior to being hired

2272
01:57:41,321 --> 01:57:43,290
position prior to being hired through the temp agency, and I

2273
01:57:43,290 --> 01:57:46,526
through the temp agency, and I think that had metro legal done

2274
01:57:46,526 --> 01:57:48,228
think that had metro legal done any sort of investigation, they

2275
01:57:48,228 --> 01:57:49,162
any sort of investigation, they would have run into some of the

2276
01:57:49,162 --> 01:57:51,970
would have run into some of the same issues that I was hearing

2277
01:57:51,970 --> 01:57:52,499
same issues that I was hearing about, which I won't bring up

2278
01:57:52,499 --> 01:57:54,601
about, which I won't bring up since they are not they have not

2279
01:57:54,601 --> 01:57:56,570
since they are not they have not yet been brought up in this, but

2280
01:57:56,570 --> 01:57:57,804
yet been brought up in this, but I feel like those are issues

2281
01:57:57,804 --> 01:57:58,972
I feel like those are issues that need to be explored before

2282
01:57:58,972 --> 01:58:00,600
that need to be explored before we make any type of settlement.

2283
01:58:00,600 --> 01:58:02,609
We make any type of settlement. I also feel that the settlement

2284
01:58:02,609 --> 01:58:04,344
I also feel that the settlement is way out of proportion to what

2285
01:58:04,344 --> 01:58:05,478
is way out of proportion to what we have offered other employees

2286
01:58:05,478 --> 01:58:06,813
we have offered other employees within metro, particularly women

2287
01:58:06,813 --> 01:58:09,449
within metro, particularly women and I. Tonight we're being asked

2288
01:58:09,449 --> 01:58:12,619
and I. Tonight we're being asked to settle with a woman who lost

2289
01:58:12,619 --> 01:58:13,854
to settle with a woman who lost her child due to negligence on

2290
01:58:13,854 --> 01:58:16,890
her child due to negligence on the part of metro, and she is

2291
01:58:16,890 --> 01:58:18,325
the part of metro, and she is being offered $50,000 less than

2292
01:58:18,325 --> 01:58:20,894
being offered $50,000 less than MR. Saad is requesting. I also

2293
01:58:20,894 --> 01:58:22,162
MR. Saad is requesting. I also feel that in the complaint, the

2294
01:58:22,162 --> 01:58:23,930
feel that in the complaint, the numbers aren't adding up in

2295
01:58:23,930 --> 01:58:25,165
numbers aren't adding up in terms of what his temp contract

2296
01:58:25,165 --> 01:58:26,833
terms of what his temp contract said his salary was and what he

2297
01:58:26,833 --> 01:58:28,735
said his salary was and what he is claiming he is owed for

2298
01:58:28,735 --> 01:58:30,570
is claiming he is owed for outstanding salary. And I feel

2299
01:58:30,570 --> 01:58:31,805
outstanding salary. And I feel like this sets a bad precedent

2300
01:58:31,805 --> 01:58:34,474
like this sets a bad precedent for metro or continues a bad

2301
01:58:34,474 --> 01:58:35,475
for metro or continues a bad precedent, actually, that we

2302
01:58:35,475 --> 01:58:36,810
precedent, actually, that we allow people to make claims

2303
01:58:36,810 --> 01:58:37,911
allow people to make claims against metro and metro legal

2304
01:58:37,911 --> 01:58:39,546
against metro and metro legal decides simply to settle them.

2305
01:58:39,546 --> 01:58:41,948
Decides simply to settle them. So we never really do get a full

2306
01:58:41,948 --> 01:58:43,817
so we never really do get a full hearing and reading on what the

2307
01:58:43,817 --> 01:58:45,218
hearing and reading on what the situation is and whether or not

2308
01:58:45,218 --> 01:58:47,220
situation is and whether or not we are really at fault at

2309
01:58:47,220 --> 01:58:49,322
we are really at fault at things. We know that metro is at

2310
01:58:49,322 --> 01:58:50,557
things. We know that metro is at fault at many things many times,

2311
01:58:50,557 --> 01:58:52,359
fault at many things many times, but not all the time. And I feel

2312
01:58:52,359 --> 01:58:53,560
but not all the time. And I feel like it it continuing this

2313
01:58:53,560 --> 01:58:56,596
like it it continuing this precedent is to our detriment.

2314
01:58:56,596 --> 01:58:59,466
Precedent is to our detriment. So I ask my colleagues to please

2315
01:58:59,466 --> 01:59:00,533
so I ask my colleagues to please vote against this settlement.

2316
01:59:00,533 --> 01:59:03,203
Vote against this settlement. Thank you. Thank you, MISS

2317
01:59:03,203 --> 01:59:04,871
Thank you. Thank you, MISS Welsh. COUNCILMAN Huffman,

2318
01:59:04,871 --> 01:59:05,972
welsh. COUNCILMAN Huffman, you're recognized, sir. Thank

2319
01:59:05,972 --> 01:59:07,841
you're recognized, sir. Thank you, vice mayor. So my

2320
01:59:07,841 --> 01:59:10,610
you, vice mayor. So my colleagues before me did a

2321
01:59:10,610 --> 01:59:13,460
colleagues before me did a really good job of outling the

2322
01:59:13,460 --> 01:59:16,149
really good job of outling the holes in this complaint. So I'm

2323
01:59:16,149 --> 01:59:18,885
holes in this complaint. So I'm I'm not even going to cover that

2324
01:59:18,885 --> 01:59:21,354
I'm not even going to cover that what I am going to cover is the

2325
01:59:21,354 --> 01:59:24,291
what I am going to cover is the fact that there is a checks and

2326
01:59:24,291 --> 01:59:25,392
fact that there is a checks and balances system in our form of

2327
01:59:25,392 --> 01:59:28,728
balances system in our form of government, and this is one of

2328
01:59:28,728 --> 01:59:30,664
government, and this is one of those times that I feel that it

2329
01:59:30,664 --> 01:59:33,633
those times that I feel that it is imperative to be a check

2330
01:59:33,633 --> 01:59:36,236
is imperative to be a check council member. Welsh

2331
01:59:36,236 --> 01:59:37,237
council member. Welsh highlighted the wrongful death

2332
01:59:37,237 --> 01:59:39,500
highlighted the wrongful death suit that we're going to be

2333
01:59:39,500 --> 01:59:41,541
suit that we're going to be taking up just shortly. Actually

2334
01:59:41,541 --> 01:59:44,477
taking up just shortly. Actually and it was less than this amount

2335
01:59:44,477 --> 01:59:47,280
and it was less than this amount I think that is just absurd to

2336
01:59:47,280 --> 01:59:51,885
I think that is just absurd to start with. And 150,000 isn't

2337
01:59:51,885 --> 01:59:54,554
start with. And 150,000 isn't even what MR. Saad asked for. We

2338
01:59:54,554 --> 01:59:57,357
even what MR. Saad asked for. We met him in the middle. Think

2339
01:59:57,357 --> 02:00:00,560
met him in the middle. Think about that. 150,000 goes a long

2340
02:00:00,560 --> 02:00:04,300
about that. 150,000 goes a long way, and it especially goes a

2341
02:00:04,300 --> 02:00:05,231
way, and it especially goes a long way when you're pulling

2342
02:00:05,231 --> 02:00:06,666
long way when you're pulling money away from artists. And

2343
02:00:06,666 --> 02:00:09,202
money away from artists. And this is where this money is

2344
02:00:09,202 --> 02:00:11,771
this is where this money is coming from. I've got a

2345
02:00:11,771 --> 02:00:12,372
coming from. I've got a fundamental disagreement with

2346
02:00:12,372 --> 02:00:15,942
fundamental disagreement with that, because at the end of the

2347
02:00:15,942 --> 02:00:18,111
that, because at the end of the day, we need to be giving our

2348
02:00:18,111 --> 02:00:20,780
day, we need to be giving our artists a chance in this city.

2349
02:00:20,780 --> 02:00:24,284
Artists a chance in this city. And I'll close with yesterday in

2350
02:00:24,284 --> 02:00:29,222
and I'll close with yesterday in budget and finance, metro legal

2351
02:00:29,222 --> 02:00:31,791
budget and finance, metro legal made a statement actually twice,

2352
02:00:31,791 --> 02:00:34,961
made a statement actually twice, stating that this was a business

2353
02:00:34,961 --> 02:00:38,665
stating that this was a business decision. I don't think we need

2354
02:00:38,665 --> 02:00:40,600
decision. I don't think we need to be in the business of taking

2355
02:00:40,600 --> 02:00:43,136
to be in the business of taking away money from thriving

2356
02:00:43,136 --> 02:00:44,304
away money from thriving artists. I think we need to be

2357
02:00:44,304 --> 02:00:46,573
artists. I think we need to be in the business of defending the

2358
02:00:46,573 --> 02:00:49,175
in the business of defending the city of nashville, and we need

2359
02:00:49,175 --> 02:00:51,411
city of nashville, and we need to be litigating this. Thank

2360
02:00:51,411 --> 02:00:54,447
to be litigating this. Thank you. Thank you, MR. Hoffman.

2361
02:00:54,447 --> 02:00:57,500
You. Thank you, MR. Hoffman. MISS Sepulveda, pro tem

2362
02:00:57,500 --> 02:00:58,840
MISS Sepulveda, pro tem sepulveda, you are recognized.

2363
02:00:58,840 --> 02:01:01,121
Sepulveda, you are recognized. Thank you, vice mayor. I don't

2364
02:01:01,121 --> 02:01:03,456
thank you, vice mayor. I don't usually abstain, but I just want

2365
02:01:03,456 --> 02:01:06,926
usually abstain, but I just want to go on the record. I do have a

2366
02:01:06,926 --> 02:01:08,610
to go on the record. I do have a conflict of interest, so I will

2367
02:01:08,610 --> 02:01:09,863
conflict of interest, so I will need to be abstaining on this

2368
02:01:09,863 --> 02:01:12,532
need to be abstaining on this vote. Okay. Thank you, pro tem.

2369
02:01:12,532 --> 02:01:15,201
Vote. Okay. Thank you, pro tem. MR. Clerk, if you would please

2370
02:01:15,201 --> 02:01:17,537
MR. Clerk, if you would please make a note of that MISS Foe.

2371
02:01:17,537 --> 02:01:18,938
Make a note of that MISS Foe. You're recognized. Ma'am. Thank

2372
02:01:18,938 --> 02:01:22,442
you're recognized. Ma'am. Thank you, vice mayor. I also rise in

2373
02:01:22,442 --> 02:01:24,210
you, vice mayor. I also rise in opposing this settlement because

2374
02:01:24,210 --> 02:01:25,345
opposing this settlement because to me, it undermines the

2375
02:01:25,345 --> 02:01:26,880
to me, it undermines the seriousness of discrimination

2376
02:01:26,880 --> 02:01:29,416
seriousness of discrimination and claims by opting for

2377
02:01:29,416 --> 02:01:30,383
and claims by opting for resolution outside the court

2378
02:01:30,383 --> 02:01:33,119
resolution outside the court system. Discrimination is a

2379
02:01:33,119 --> 02:01:34,154
system. Discrimination is a profound issue that impacts not

2380
02:01:34,154 --> 02:01:35,622
profound issue that impacts not only individuals, but

2381
02:01:35,622 --> 02:01:38,591
only individuals, but communities. And it deserves a

2382
02:01:38,591 --> 02:01:39,692
communities. And it deserves a rigorous examination in a legal

2383
02:01:39,692 --> 02:01:42,128
rigorous examination in a legal setting where evidence can be

2384
02:01:42,128 --> 02:01:43,863
setting where evidence can be presented and rights can be

2385
02:01:43,863 --> 02:01:45,698
presented and rights can be protected. Settling such matters

2386
02:01:45,698 --> 02:01:47,634
protected. Settling such matters in the chambers risks allowing

2387
02:01:47,634 --> 02:01:48,735
in the chambers risks allowing injustices to go unaddressed and

2388
02:01:48,735 --> 02:01:51,438
injustices to go unaddressed and MAY also set a dangerous

2389
02:01:51,438 --> 02:01:52,505
MAY also set a dangerous precedent that encourages future

2390
02:01:52,505 --> 02:01:54,908
precedent that encourages future discrimination. A court's

2391
02:01:54,908 --> 02:01:57,177
discrimination. A court's involvement, transparency,

2392
02:01:57,177 --> 02:01:58,211
involvement, transparency, accountability, and adherence to

2393
02:01:58,211 --> 02:02:00,947
accountability, and adherence to the rule of law. And so, by

2394
02:02:00,947 --> 02:02:01,948
the rule of law. And so, by bypassing this process, we

2395
02:02:01,948 --> 02:02:03,283
bypassing this process, we diminish the importance of legal

2396
02:02:03,283 --> 02:02:05,819
diminish the importance of legal remedies and the need for public

2397
02:02:05,819 --> 02:02:06,319
remedies and the need for public awareness and discussion

2398
02:02:06,319 --> 02:02:08,721
awareness and discussion surrounding discrimination. So I

2399
02:02:08,721 --> 02:02:12,959
surrounding discrimination. So I just want to make sure that, you

2400
02:02:12,959 --> 02:02:14,600
just want to make sure that, you know, it's really crucial that

2401
02:02:14,600 --> 02:02:15,228
know, it's really crucial that we take such cases seriously and

2402
02:02:15,228 --> 02:02:17,630
we take such cases seriously and resolve them through a judicial

2403
02:02:17,630 --> 02:02:18,765
resolve them through a judicial system so that they can be

2404
02:02:18,765 --> 02:02:21,768
system so that they can be served and that we deal with

2405
02:02:21,768 --> 02:02:23,703
served and that we deal with discrimination head on. Thank

2406
02:02:23,703 --> 02:02:26,390
discrimination head on. Thank you. Thank you, MISS Foe.

2407
02:02:26,390 --> 02:02:27,140
You. Thank you, MISS Foe. COUNCILMAN Prep tea. You're

2408
02:02:27,140 --> 02:02:29,876

2410
02:02:37,117 --> 02:02:39,180
vice mayor. I have I have significant concerns, but from

2411
02:02:39,180 --> 02:02:44,357
significant concerns, but from the outset, I appreciate council

2412
02:02:44,357 --> 02:02:45,391
the outset, I appreciate council member welsh for raising the

2413
02:02:45,391 --> 02:02:47,961
member welsh for raising the comparisons between the two

2414
02:02:47,961 --> 02:02:49,762
comparisons between the two settlements that we are going to

2415
02:02:49,762 --> 02:02:50,763
settlements that we are going to be taking under consideration

2416
02:02:50,763 --> 02:02:51,764
be taking under consideration this evening. And I would like

2417
02:02:51,764 --> 02:02:54,467
this evening. And I would like to pose a question through the

2418
02:02:54,467 --> 02:02:55,668
to pose a question through the chair to either metro legal or

2419
02:02:55,668 --> 02:02:57,670
chair to either metro legal or metro finance, or to somebody at

2420
02:02:57,670 --> 02:02:59,572
metro finance, or to somebody at the administration table

2421
02:02:59,572 --> 02:03:02,809
the administration table specifically as to how the

2422
02:03:02,809 --> 02:03:05,979
specifically as to how the valuation of this settlement

2423
02:03:05,979 --> 02:03:07,800
valuation of this settlement agreement was brought about. If

2424
02:03:07,800 --> 02:03:09,115
agreement was brought about. If I could pose that question

2425
02:03:09,115 --> 02:03:10,183
I could pose that question through the chair. Yeah. Thank

2426
02:03:10,183 --> 02:03:12,152
through the chair. Yeah. Thank you, MR. T, to the

2427
02:03:12,152 --> 02:03:14,988
you, MR. T, to the administration from metro legal.

2428
02:03:14,988 --> 02:03:17,724
Administration from metro legal. If you were, please introduce

2429
02:03:17,724 --> 02:03:20,460
if you were, please introduce yourself to respond to MR.

2430
02:03:20,460 --> 02:03:23,263
Yourself to respond to MR. Pratt's question. Good evening,

2431
02:03:23,263 --> 02:03:24,697
pratt's question. Good evening, council. I'm melissa roberge and

2432
02:03:24,697 --> 02:03:25,999
council. I'm melissa roberge and I'm one of the senior litigators

2433
02:03:25,999 --> 02:03:28,268
I'm one of the senior litigators on this case. I believe your

2434
02:03:28,268 --> 02:03:31,700
on this case. I believe your question was about how did we

2435
02:03:31,700 --> 02:03:32,472
question was about how did we come up with the settlement

2436
02:03:32,472 --> 02:03:35,542
come up with the settlement value. And so this case is in

2437
02:03:35,542 --> 02:03:38,745
value. And so this case is in its early stages, but we've done

2438
02:03:38,745 --> 02:03:39,946
its early stages, but we've done a lot of homework on it. We've

2439
02:03:39,946 --> 02:03:41,748
a lot of homework on it. We've gotten documents from human

2440
02:03:41,748 --> 02:03:44,784
gotten documents from human resources. We have talked to

2441
02:03:44,784 --> 02:03:47,120
resources. We have talked to people. We have reviewed the

2442
02:03:47,120 --> 02:03:49,422
people. We have reviewed the interview process. We have

2443
02:03:49,422 --> 02:03:52,759
interview process. We have reviewed what the current person

2444
02:03:52,759 --> 02:03:55,428
reviewed what the current person in that manager excuse me in the

2445
02:03:55,428 --> 02:03:58,231
in that manager excuse me in the arts manager, grant manager

2446
02:03:58,231 --> 02:03:59,365
arts manager, grant manager position, what they are making.

2447
02:03:59,365 --> 02:04:01,201
Position, what they are making. We have looked at what the

2448
02:04:01,201 --> 02:04:03,836
we have looked at what the current back pay would be. The

2449
02:04:03,836 --> 02:04:06,439
current back pay would be. The available damages under the law,

2450
02:04:06,439 --> 02:04:09,750
available damages under the law, plus what he would need to what

2451
02:04:09,750 --> 02:04:10,210
plus what he would need to what what this case would need to

2452
02:04:10,210 --> 02:04:13,112
what this case would need to proceed to trial. So in the

2453
02:04:13,112 --> 02:04:15,281
proceed to trial. So in the state court system, the burden

2454
02:04:15,281 --> 02:04:16,482
state court system, the burden for filing a complaint is very,

2455
02:04:16,482 --> 02:04:18,952
for filing a complaint is very, very low. You don't have to

2456
02:04:18,952 --> 02:04:20,687
very low. You don't have to include all of your evidence and

2457
02:04:20,687 --> 02:04:22,488
include all of your evidence and all of your documents. That's

2458
02:04:22,488 --> 02:04:23,556
all of your documents. That's what the discovery process is

2459
02:04:23,556 --> 02:04:26,593
what the discovery process is for. And most of those documents

2460
02:04:26,593 --> 02:04:27,694
for. And most of those documents are in metro's possession. So we

2461
02:04:27,694 --> 02:04:29,996
are in metro's possession. So we have the ability to do some of

2462
02:04:29,996 --> 02:04:32,799
have the ability to do some of our own initial research. And in

2463
02:04:32,799 --> 02:04:35,468
our own initial research. And in looking at this case, we try to

2464
02:04:35,468 --> 02:04:38,104
looking at this case, we try to take both an objective view,

2465
02:04:38,104 --> 02:04:40,106
take both an objective view, which is what would a court or a

2466
02:04:40,106 --> 02:04:42,675
which is what would a court or a jury do with this case. And then

2467
02:04:42,675 --> 02:04:44,577
jury do with this case. And then we try to also put on our

2468
02:04:44,577 --> 02:04:45,678
we try to also put on our advocates hat what arguments can

2469
02:04:45,678 --> 02:04:47,580
advocates hat what arguments can we make in favor of the metro

2470
02:04:47,580 --> 02:04:48,748
we make in favor of the metro government? And when we're

2471
02:04:48,748 --> 02:04:50,750
government? And when we're taking that objective view, we

2472
02:04:50,750 --> 02:04:53,620
taking that objective view, we think it's likely that this case

2473
02:04:53,620 --> 02:04:56,422
think it's likely that this case proceeds to trial and at a trial

2474
02:04:56,422 --> 02:04:57,457
proceeds to trial and at a trial juries are unpredictable and

2475
02:04:57,457 --> 02:04:59,826
juries are unpredictable and will have kind of an entire

2476
02:04:59,826 --> 02:05:02,495
will have kind of an entire range of options. And so we look

2477
02:05:02,495 --> 02:05:05,531
range of options. And so we look at what could be the outcome and

2478
02:05:05,531 --> 02:05:06,599
at what could be the outcome and what's the likelihood of that

2479
02:05:06,599 --> 02:05:08,935
what's the likelihood of that outcome at this point, it's

2480
02:05:08,935 --> 02:05:11,971
outcome at this point, it's probably 50 over 50. On if we

2481
02:05:11,971 --> 02:05:13,139
probably 50 over 50. On if we would prevail, maybe less given

2482
02:05:13,139 --> 02:05:15,408
would prevail, maybe less given the challenges with director

2483
02:05:15,408 --> 02:05:16,409
the challenges with director singh and some of those

2484
02:05:16,409 --> 02:05:19,145
singh and some of those credibility issues. And so then

2485
02:05:19,145 --> 02:05:21,247
credibility issues. And so then we try to figure out what could

2486
02:05:21,247 --> 02:05:22,482
we try to figure out what could be his best day in court. In

2487
02:05:22,482 --> 02:05:24,284
be his best day in court. In this case, it would exceed

2488
02:05:24,284 --> 02:05:29,840
this case, it would exceed $300,000. And so 50% of $300,000

2489
02:05:29,355 --> 02:05:32,225
$300,000. And so 50% of $300,000 is 150. So we put all of that.

2490
02:05:32,225 --> 02:05:33,459
Is 150. So we put all of that. There isn't a formula. We put

2491
02:05:33,459 --> 02:05:35,628
there isn't a formula. We put all of that kind of into the

2492
02:05:35,628 --> 02:05:36,129
all of that kind of into the calculus to recommend a

2493
02:05:36,129 --> 02:05:38,364
calculus to recommend a settlement that we think is in

2494
02:05:38,364 --> 02:05:39,499
settlement that we think is in the best interest of the metro

2495
02:05:39,499 --> 02:05:41,334
the best interest of the metro government, if I MAY, MADAM

2496
02:05:41,334 --> 02:05:42,368
Government, if I MAY, MADAM Vice. Yes, just that I have

2497
02:05:42,368 --> 02:05:45,705
vice. Yes, just that I have another brief or another

2498
02:05:45,705 --> 02:05:46,806
another brief or another question that I'd like to pose

2499
02:05:46,806 --> 02:05:49,542
question that I'd like to pose to the through the chair. If you

2500
02:05:49,542 --> 02:05:51,577
to the through the chair. If you MAY go ahead, because that was a

2501
02:05:51,577 --> 02:05:53,246
may go ahead, because that was a lengthy reply. And so I'll allow

2502
02:05:53,246 --> 02:05:54,247
lengthy reply. And so I'll allow the time. Yes. Thank you, MADAM

2503
02:05:54,247 --> 02:05:55,948
The time. Yes. Thank you, MADAM Vice mayor. So the individual

2504
02:05:55,948 --> 02:05:57,650
vice mayor. So the individual from the administration, from

2505
02:05:57,650 --> 02:05:59,285
from the administration, from metro legal just stated that we

2506
02:05:59,285 --> 02:06:00,386
metro legal just stated that we were in the very early stages of

2507
02:06:00,386 --> 02:06:03,890
were in the very early stages of this litigation. My question is,

2508
02:06:03,890 --> 02:06:04,290
this litigation. My question is, have the motions to dismiss been

2509
02:06:04,290 --> 02:06:07,293
have the motions to dismiss been briefed and litigated in this

2510
02:06:07,293 --> 02:06:09,462
briefed and litigated in this case and or sort of where are we

2511
02:06:09,462 --> 02:06:12,980
case and or sort of where are we in the litigation process? Okay,

2512
02:06:12,980 --> 02:06:14,634
in the litigation process? Okay, MISS Roberts, it's back to you.

2513
02:06:14,634 --> 02:06:16,636
MISS Roberts, it's back to you. We have not filed a motion to

2514
02:06:16,636 --> 02:06:18,838
we have not filed a motion to dismiss. We do not think that a

2515
02:06:18,838 --> 02:06:19,906
dismiss. We do not think that a motion to dismiss would be

2516
02:06:19,906 --> 02:06:22,342
motion to dismiss would be successful. So we have not taken

2517
02:06:22,342 --> 02:06:24,410
successful. So we have not taken that step. Does that answer your

2518
02:06:24,410 --> 02:06:26,846

02:07:30,143 --> 02:07:31,444
You please put it on the board? Sir, I can't I can't distinguish

2543
02:07:31,444 --> 02:07:38,440
sir, I can't I can't distinguish between the two. Pretty close.

2544
02:07:41,988 --> 02:07:47,388
Between the two. Pretty close. Because I can't tell.

2545
02:08:54,894 --> 02:08:56,162
All votes are in. MR. Clerk,

02:09:09,308 --> 02:09:13,120

02:09:13,120 --> 02:09:15,248
with discussion. Next in the queue for discussion is

2551
02:09:15,248 --> 02:09:16,849
queue for discussion is COUNCILWOMAN Tombs. You are

2552
02:09:16,849 --> 02:09:21,649
COUNCILWOMAN Tombs. You are recognized, ma'am. Thank you,

2553
02:09:22,388 --> 02:09:25,691
recognized, ma'am. Thank you, MADAM Vice mayor. I am going to

2554
02:09:25,691 --> 02:09:30,363
MADAM Vice mayor. I am going to be abstaing on this. I can't

2555
02:09:30,363 --> 02:09:31,430
be abstaing on this. I can't support it because there are

2556
02:09:31,430 --> 02:09:33,566
support it because there are still some outlying concerns

2557
02:09:33,566 --> 02:09:36,135
still some outlying concerns that I wish had been

2558
02:09:36,135 --> 02:09:37,136
that I wish had been investigated earlier. I don't

2559
02:09:37,136 --> 02:09:39,672
investigated earlier. I don't know if that was. That was

2560
02:09:39,672 --> 02:09:41,507
know if that was. That was probably the role of human

2561
02:09:41,507 --> 02:09:42,642
probably the role of human resources to investigate any

2562
02:09:42,642 --> 02:09:45,111
resources to investigate any alleged sexual advances. I know,

2563
02:09:45,111 --> 02:09:47,880
alleged sexual advances. I know, you know, as an attorney that

2564
02:09:47,880 --> 02:09:48,848
you know, as an attorney that oftentimes it's hard to

2565
02:09:48,848 --> 02:09:51,830
oftentimes it's hard to corroborate those things, that

2566
02:09:51,830 --> 02:09:53,119
corroborate those things, that it's a he said, she said type of

2567
02:09:53,119 --> 02:09:56,489
it's a he said, she said type of thing. I also know that metro

2568
02:09:56,489 --> 02:09:58,391
thing. I also know that metro council is not a court of law.

2569
02:09:58,391 --> 02:10:00,660
Council is not a court of law. So even though we MAY think that

2570
02:10:00,660 --> 02:10:03,290
so even though we MAY think that a case is viable or that it

2571
02:10:03,290 --> 02:10:04,196
a case is viable or that it should go forward, doesn't mean

2572
02:10:04,196 --> 02:10:06,232
should go forward, doesn't mean that a judge is going to think

2573
02:10:06,232 --> 02:10:08,234
that a judge is going to think that that a jury is going to

2574
02:10:08,234 --> 02:10:09,100
that that a jury is going to think that because in council

2575
02:10:09,100 --> 02:10:10,236
think that because in council there are no rules of evidence,

2576
02:10:10,236 --> 02:10:12,405
there are no rules of evidence, no rules of civil procedure. And

2577
02:10:12,405 --> 02:10:16,709
no rules of civil procedure. And so that's why it just gives me

2578
02:10:16,709 --> 02:10:18,878
so that's why it just gives me pause. I hear the concerns. I

2579
02:10:18,878 --> 02:10:23,215
pause. I hear the concerns. I don't want to say no because I

2580
02:10:23,215 --> 02:10:26,619
don't want to say no because I understand our legal counsel is

2581
02:10:26,619 --> 02:10:27,853
understand our legal counsel is telling us they don't think this

2582
02:10:27,853 --> 02:10:30,323
telling us they don't think this is a good case. And I've been in

2583
02:10:30,323 --> 02:10:32,910
is a good case. And I've been in that situation where you as an

2584
02:10:32,910 --> 02:10:33,192
that situation where you as an attorney, you don't think you

2585
02:10:33,192 --> 02:10:35,394
attorney, you don't think you have a good case, but the client

2586
02:10:35,394 --> 02:10:37,129
have a good case, but the client wants to move forward. But I do

2587
02:10:37,129 --> 02:10:38,164
wants to move forward. But I do still have some concerns about

2588
02:10:38,164 --> 02:10:39,532
still have some concerns about the complaint itself and about

2589
02:10:39,532 --> 02:10:40,900
the complaint itself and about these previous allegations and

2590
02:10:40,900 --> 02:10:43,769
these previous allegations and what really led to MR. Saad not

2591
02:10:43,769 --> 02:10:47,573
what really led to MR. Saad not getting the position. And so I'm

2592
02:10:47,573 --> 02:10:48,741
getting the position. And so I'm just not a strong yes or a

2593
02:10:48,741 --> 02:10:50,743
just not a strong yes or a strong no. So I'm going to be

2594
02:10:50,743 --> 02:10:51,911
strong no. So I'm going to be abstaining. Thank you. MISS

2595
02:10:51,911 --> 02:10:53,846
Abstaining. Thank you. MISS Tombs. COUNCILWOMAN Wiener,

2596
02:10:53,846 --> 02:10:55,481
tombs. COUNCILWOMAN Wiener, you're recognized ma'am. Thank

2597
02:10:55,481 --> 02:10:57,316
you're recognized ma'am. Thank you, vice mayor, I appreciate

2598
02:10:57,316 --> 02:10:59,719
you, vice mayor, I appreciate it. I have a couple of questions

2599
02:10:59,719 --> 02:11:01,754
it. I have a couple of questions for both finance and metro

2600
02:11:01,754 --> 02:11:03,723
for both finance and metro legal, if I MAY. My first

2601
02:11:03,723 --> 02:11:04,857
legal, if I MAY. My first question is to metro finance.

2602
02:11:04,857 --> 02:11:07,560
Question is to metro finance. Where's the money coming from to

2603
02:11:07,560 --> 02:11:11,430
where's the money coming from to pay this? Okay, MR. Moyer,

2604
02:11:11,430 --> 02:11:14,400
pay this? Okay, MR. Moyer, you're recognized for the

2605
02:11:14,400 --> 02:11:15,401
you're recognized for the finance department. Go ahead.

2606
02:11:15,401 --> 02:11:17,737
Finance department. Go ahead. Ma'am. Thank you. The money for

2607
02:11:17,737 --> 02:11:18,838
ma'am. Thank you. The money for this settlement is coming from

2608
02:11:18,838 --> 02:11:20,272
this settlement is coming from the $3 million that was

2609
02:11:20,272 --> 02:11:22,441
the $3 million that was allocated in MARCH as part of

2610
02:11:22,441 --> 02:11:23,576
allocated in MARCH as part of the judgment losses, and so that

2611
02:11:23,576 --> 02:11:26,245
the judgment losses, and so that is not coming from the arts

2612
02:11:26,245 --> 02:11:28,180
is not coming from the arts budget. So none of the art

2613
02:11:28,180 --> 02:11:31,500
budget. So none of the art groups that are going to be

2614
02:11:31,500 --> 02:11:32,118
groups that are going to be getting grant money, they're not

2615
02:11:32,118 --> 02:11:34,120
getting grant money, they're not going to lose out because of

2616
02:11:34,120 --> 02:11:35,921
going to lose out because of this. They're not affected by

2617
02:11:35,921 --> 02:11:37,857
this. They're not affected by this at all. Okay, great. So

2618
02:11:37,857 --> 02:11:38,991
this at all. Okay, great. So that was thing number one.

2619
02:11:38,991 --> 02:11:40,159
That was thing number one. Thing. Number two was his

2620
02:11:40,159 --> 02:11:43,329
thing. Number two was his contract a temporary service or

2621
02:11:43,329 --> 02:11:46,465
contract a temporary service or was it a temporary contract. Can

2622
02:11:46,465 --> 02:11:48,968
was it a temporary contract. Can you differentiate. So a

2623
02:11:48,968 --> 02:11:49,969
you differentiate. So a temporary service contract would

2624
02:11:49,969 --> 02:11:51,103
temporary service contract would be where you hire someone

2625
02:11:51,103 --> 02:11:53,272
be where you hire someone specifically for a service. And

2626
02:11:53,272 --> 02:11:54,340
specifically for a service. And they're they're they're paid by

2627
02:11:54,340 --> 02:11:56,642
they're they're they're paid by that temp service. You might see

2628
02:11:56,642 --> 02:11:57,877
that temp service. You might see that as a ronstadt or something.

2629
02:11:57,877 --> 02:12:00,479
That as a ronstadt or something. And you're and that's one of our

2630
02:12:00,479 --> 02:12:01,480
and you're and that's one of our contracts that we have here.

2631
02:12:01,480 --> 02:12:03,649
Contracts that we have here. This was a payroll service, and

2632
02:12:03,649 --> 02:12:04,216
this was a payroll service, and it was actually used out of

2633
02:12:04,216 --> 02:12:07,420
it was actually used out of scope. And so jonathan saad was

2634
02:12:07,420 --> 02:12:09,889
scope. And so jonathan saad was paid for services through a

2635
02:12:09,889 --> 02:12:10,956
paid for services through a payroll service, but there was

2636
02:12:10,956 --> 02:12:12,892
payroll service, but there was not a contract for the for the

2637
02:12:12,892 --> 02:12:15,261
not a contract for the for the work that he was doing. So he

2638
02:12:15,261 --> 02:12:16,395
work that he was doing. So he was an employee of metro

2639
02:12:16,395 --> 02:12:18,397
was an employee of metro government? No, he was a person

2640
02:12:18,397 --> 02:12:19,799
government? No, he was a person that was paid through our

2641
02:12:19,799 --> 02:12:20,833
that was paid through our payroll services. So it's kind

2642
02:12:20,833 --> 02:12:23,536
payroll services. So it's kind of a hybrid thing. And as I

2643
02:12:23,536 --> 02:12:25,871
of a hybrid thing. And as I said, it was out of scope for

2644
02:12:25,871 --> 02:12:28,841
said, it was out of scope for this contract. Okay. I guess my

2645
02:12:28,841 --> 02:12:30,910
this contract. Okay. I guess my next my last question would MISS

2646
02:12:30,910 --> 02:12:33,779
Next my last question would MISS Wiener if you would move the mic

2647
02:12:33,779 --> 02:12:35,715
wiener if you would move the mic a little closer to you. I'm

2648
02:12:35,715 --> 02:12:36,916
a little closer to you. I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I think my

2649
02:12:36,916 --> 02:12:38,851
sorry, I'm sorry. I think my last question, because I'm, I'm

2650
02:12:38,851 --> 02:12:40,252
last question, because I'm, I'm a lot like council member tombs.

2651
02:12:40,252 --> 02:12:43,522
a lot like council member tombs. I get that it's not a good case.

2652
02:12:43,522 --> 02:12:46,192
I get that it's not a good case. I hate the message that it's

2653
02:12:46,192 --> 02:12:47,359
I hate the message that it's sending, but I also know that

2654
02:12:47,359 --> 02:12:50,329
sending, but I also know that we're not in the hr department

2655
02:12:50,329 --> 02:12:53,666
we're not in the hr department and so I'm going to be careful

2656
02:12:53,666 --> 02:12:55,835
and so I'm going to be careful about this because I don't know

2657
02:12:55,835 --> 02:12:57,737
about this because I don't know that you can answer it. And this

2658
02:12:57,737 --> 02:12:59,672
that you can answer it. And this is for metro legal. Is there

2659
02:12:59,672 --> 02:13:04,210
is for metro legal. Is there anything that would help us

2660
02:13:04,210 --> 02:13:06,712
anything that would help us close the gaps on some of the

2661
02:13:06,712 --> 02:13:09,615
close the gaps on some of the concerns that we have about

2662
02:13:09,615 --> 02:13:12,685
concerns that we have about unspoken issues that might

2663
02:13:12,685 --> 02:13:14,487
unspoken issues that might impact this decision? MISS

2664
02:13:14,487 --> 02:13:19,887
Impact this decision? MISS Roberts, you recognized so the

2665
02:13:21,393 --> 02:13:24,290
roberts, you recognized so the allegations about inappropriate

2666
02:13:24,290 --> 02:13:27,299
allegations about inappropriate conduct. We did ask metro hr if

2667
02:13:27,299 --> 02:13:28,467
conduct. We did ask metro hr if there was anything in his

2668
02:13:28,467 --> 02:13:30,669
there was anything in his personnel file and there were no

2669
02:13:30,669 --> 02:13:33,606
personnel file and there were no complaints. There were there was

2670
02:13:33,606 --> 02:13:35,474
complaints. There were there was nothing in that file. And the

2671
02:13:35,474 --> 02:13:35,941
nothing in that file. And the allegation about those

2672
02:13:35,941 --> 02:13:39,440
allegation about those complaints actually came up

2673
02:13:39,440 --> 02:13:42,448
complaints actually came up after the arts commission

2674
02:13:42,448 --> 02:13:45,500
after the arts commission started being investigated by, I

2675
02:13:45,500 --> 02:13:46,252
started being investigated by, I believe it's attorney knight,

2676
02:13:46,252 --> 02:13:49,321
believe it's attorney knight, and so the timing of kind of the

2677
02:13:49,321 --> 02:13:51,257
and so the timing of kind of the initial allegations, there MAY

2678
02:13:51,257 --> 02:13:53,125
initial allegations, there MAY be some questions about that as

2679
02:13:53,125 --> 02:13:55,161
be some questions about that as well. So I think to the extent

2680
02:13:55,161 --> 02:13:57,830
well. So I think to the extent it helps kind of calm some

2681
02:13:57,830 --> 02:13:59,698
it helps kind of calm some fears, there were no

2682
02:13:59,698 --> 02:14:02,535
fears, there were no contemporaneous reports of any

2683
02:14:02,535 --> 02:14:03,536
contemporaneous reports of any sort of inappropriate behavior

2684
02:14:03,536 --> 02:14:06,505
sort of inappropriate behavior by MR. Saad. That helps. Thank

2685
02:14:06,505 --> 02:14:08,474
by MR. Saad. That helps. Thank you. I will be voting to support

2686
02:14:08,474 --> 02:14:11,243
you. I will be voting to support this. Thank you. Thank you,

2687
02:14:11,243 --> 02:14:14,280
this. Thank you. Thank you, thank you, MISS Wiener.

2688
02:14:14,280 --> 02:14:15,347
Thank you, MISS Wiener. COUNCILWOMAN Gad, you're

2689
02:14:15,347 --> 02:14:17,416
COUNCILWOMAN Gad, you're recognized, ma'am. Thank you.

2690
02:14:17,416 --> 02:14:20,219
Recognized, ma'am. Thank you. Thank you so much. Vice mayor.

2691
02:14:20,219 --> 02:14:21,453
Thank you so much. Vice mayor. Just a couple of things I've.

2692
02:14:21,453 --> 02:14:24,390
Just a couple of things I've. I'm definitely not in a place

2693
02:14:24,390 --> 02:14:25,624
I'm definitely not in a place where I feel like I can support

2694
02:14:25,624 --> 02:14:27,593
where I feel like I can support this, but I'm also in a place

2695
02:14:27,593 --> 02:14:30,229
this, but I'm also in a place where I'll likely be voting to

2696
02:14:30,229 --> 02:14:31,463
where I'll likely be voting to abstain. And the reason is, I've

2697
02:14:31,463 --> 02:14:34,600
abstain. And the reason is, I've been shared by another colleague

2698
02:14:34,600 --> 02:14:37,269
been shared by another colleague with council member tombs. I do

2699
02:14:37,269 --> 02:14:40,272
with council member tombs. I do still have some some concerns,

2700
02:14:40,272 --> 02:14:42,308
still have some some concerns, but I have a couple of questions

2701
02:14:42,308 --> 02:14:44,143
but I have a couple of questions or at least one question if you

2702
02:14:44,143 --> 02:14:46,145
or at least one question if you don't mind me asking that and to

2703
02:14:46,145 --> 02:14:48,714
don't mind me asking that and to for you to direct the question

2704
02:14:48,714 --> 02:14:51,116
for you to direct the question where you see fit. But

2705
02:14:51,116 --> 02:14:52,218
where you see fit. But specifically since it was just

2706
02:14:52,218 --> 02:14:53,752
specifically since it was just lifted up about the arts

2707
02:14:53,752 --> 02:14:56,989
lifted up about the arts commission matter or the arts

2708
02:14:56,989 --> 02:14:57,556
commission matter or the arts commission matter resolution

2709
02:14:57,556 --> 02:15:00,526
commission matter resolution fund, we did receive information

2710
02:15:00,526 --> 02:15:03,162
fund, we did receive information yesterday that the current

2711
02:15:03,162 --> 02:15:05,300
yesterday that the current balance of the fund, or with the

2712
02:15:05,300 --> 02:15:07,700
balance of the fund, or with the current balance, and that for us

2713
02:15:07,700 --> 02:15:09,935
current balance, and that for us to recall that the fund started

2714
02:15:09,935 --> 02:15:11,737
to recall that the fund started with $3 million and was and was

2715
02:15:11,737 --> 02:15:13,939
with $3 million and was and was created to both fully fund the

2716
02:15:13,939 --> 02:15:15,740
created to both fully fund the artists that were awarded arts

2717
02:15:15,740 --> 02:15:18,377
artists that were awarded arts grants, as well as to pay for

2718
02:15:18,377 --> 02:15:20,379
grants, as well as to pay for outside counsel as necessary.

2719
02:15:20,379 --> 02:15:23,549
Outside counsel as necessary. And the one thing I'm just

2720
02:15:23,549 --> 02:15:25,851
and the one thing I'm just trying to understand from that

2721
02:15:25,851 --> 02:15:28,954
trying to understand from that fund is that not money that's

2722
02:15:28,954 --> 02:15:31,390
fund is that not money that's taken away from the arts

2723
02:15:31,390 --> 02:15:33,826
taken away from the arts commission. I MAY just need one

2724
02:15:33,826 --> 02:15:34,960
commission. I MAY just need one more chance at understanding

2725
02:15:34,960 --> 02:15:38,970
more chance at understanding that, okay, that sounds like a

2726
02:15:38,970 --> 02:15:39,231
that, okay, that sounds like a question for MR. Moyer. MISS

2727
02:15:39,231 --> 02:15:40,332
Question for MR. Moyer. MISS Moyer, dean moyer, you're

2728
02:15:40,332 --> 02:15:44,870
moyer, dean moyer, you're recognized. Hey there. The funds

2729
02:15:44,870 --> 02:15:48,207
recognized. Hey there. The funds that that $3 million. And I was

2730
02:15:48,207 --> 02:15:49,341
that that $3 million. And I was actually going to go find the

2731
02:15:49,341 --> 02:15:51,343
actually going to go find the language specifically, but it

2732
02:15:51,343 --> 02:15:52,578
language specifically, but it was to resolve all of the issues

2733
02:15:52,578 --> 02:15:54,813
was to resolve all of the issues that came up as a result of the

2734
02:15:54,813 --> 02:15:57,750
that came up as a result of the arts of the arts granting

2735
02:15:57,750 --> 02:15:58,717
arts of the arts granting process throughout, throughout

2736
02:15:58,717 --> 02:16:01,420
process throughout, throughout that year. So many of many, if

2737
02:16:01,420 --> 02:16:04,323
that year. So many of many, if not most, there are still some

2738
02:16:04,323 --> 02:16:05,457
not most, there are still some out there have been resolved

2739
02:16:05,457 --> 02:16:07,393
out there have been resolved through that. And you'll recall

2740
02:16:07,393 --> 02:16:10,129
through that. And you'll recall the many reports that we had on

2741
02:16:10,129 --> 02:16:12,464
the many reports that we had on which artists had been paid

2742
02:16:12,464 --> 02:16:14,199
which artists had been paid through that process and not

2743
02:16:14,199 --> 02:16:16,502
through that process and not from this fund. There are, as a

2744
02:16:16,502 --> 02:16:17,670
from this fund. There are, as a result of the conciliation

2745
02:16:17,670 --> 02:16:18,671
result of the conciliation agreements, still artists being

2746
02:16:18,671 --> 02:16:20,606
agreements, still artists being paid, but it is as a result of

2747
02:16:20,606 --> 02:16:22,174
paid, but it is as a result of that 24 process as is. This is

2748
02:16:22,174 --> 02:16:25,911
that 24 process as is. This is as is this settlement. Does that

2749
02:16:25,911 --> 02:16:27,112
as is this settlement. Does that do you have a follow up

2750
02:16:27,112 --> 02:16:28,881
do you have a follow up question, MISS, can I do? Okay.

2751
02:16:28,881 --> 02:16:31,617
question, MISS, can I do? Okay. Go ahead. So my follow up

2752
02:16:31,617 --> 02:16:32,785
go ahead. So my follow up question is I just want to

2753
02:16:32,785 --> 02:16:34,853
question is I just want to confirm and I believe I just

2754
02:16:34,853 --> 02:16:35,921
confirm and I believe I just understood this from your from

2755
02:16:35,921 --> 02:16:37,890
understood this from your from the response that was given that

2756
02:16:37,890 --> 02:16:40,993
the response that was given that using this fund does not remove

2757
02:16:40,993 --> 02:16:44,960
using this fund does not remove funds from the artists and the

2758
02:16:44,960 --> 02:16:47,266
funds from the artists and the grants. Can you confirm that,

2759
02:16:47,266 --> 02:16:48,934
grants. Can you confirm that, MR. Moyer? Yes, ma'am. All

2760
02:16:48,934 --> 02:16:50,936
MR. Moyer? Yes, ma'am. All right. Thank you. I know that's

2761
02:16:50,936 --> 02:16:52,371
right. Thank you. I know that's a redundant, repetive

2762
02:16:52,371 --> 02:16:54,173
a redundant, repetive question, but thank you. I just

2763
02:16:54,173 --> 02:16:55,140
question, but thank you. I just had some difficulty with that.

2764
02:16:55,140 --> 02:16:58,477
Had some difficulty with that. The final thing with this, I

2765
02:16:58,477 --> 02:17:01,547
the final thing with this, I highly concerned with a lot of

2766
02:17:01,547 --> 02:17:02,648
highly concerned with a lot of the matters that have been

2767
02:17:02,648 --> 02:17:04,283
the matters that have been lifted up. I would encourage if

2768
02:17:04,283 --> 02:17:07,286
lifted up. I would encourage if there's any inaccuracies, has

2769
02:17:07,286 --> 02:17:09,855
there's any inaccuracies, has been lifted up with the

2770
02:17:09,855 --> 02:17:10,956
been lifted up with the assessment of this particular

2771
02:17:10,956 --> 02:17:14,159
assessment of this particular legal matter for that to be

2772
02:17:14,159 --> 02:17:15,361
legal matter for that to be shared. But at this point I'll

2773
02:17:15,361 --> 02:17:17,629
shared. But at this point I'll be abstaing. Thank you. Thank

2774
02:17:17,629 --> 02:17:19,732
be abstaing. Thank you. Thank you, iss COUNCILWOMAN Ellis,

2776
02:17:20,766 --> 02:17:23,502
you're recognized. Thank you, vice mayor. So I assume I need

2777
02:17:23,502 --> 02:17:24,703
vice mayor. So I assume I need to ask this question through

2778
02:17:24,703 --> 02:17:26,380
to ask this question through you. Yes. You always address the

2779
02:17:26,380 --> 02:17:27,906
you. Yes. You always address the chair, and then I can recognize

2780
02:17:27,906 --> 02:17:29,308
chair, and then I can recognize the administration. Yep. Thank

2781
02:17:29,308 --> 02:17:31,143
the administration. Yep. Thank you. Can I get the opinion of

2782
02:17:31,143 --> 02:17:36,415
you. Can I get the opinion of the administration on this? You

2783
02:17:36,415 --> 02:17:40,753
the administration on this? You MAY, MR. Rosenberg, on behalf of

2784
02:17:40,753 --> 02:17:41,720
MAY, MR. Rosenberg, on behalf of the administration. Go ahead,

2785
02:17:41,720 --> 02:17:44,423
the administration. Go ahead, sir. Thank you. I have no legal

2786
02:17:44,423 --> 02:17:45,424
sir. Thank you. I have no legal background whatsoever. I'll add

2787
02:17:45,424 --> 02:17:47,260
background whatsoever. I'll add I would say, first of all, it is

2788
02:17:47,260 --> 02:17:48,761
I would say, first of all, it is not accurate to say that this

2789
02:17:48,761 --> 02:17:49,828
not accurate to say that this settlement is greater than the

2790
02:17:49,828 --> 02:17:51,997
settlement is greater than the york settlement metro is only

2791
02:17:51,997 --> 02:17:53,165
york settlement metro is only paying a portion of that other

2792
02:17:53,165 --> 02:17:54,233
paying a portion of that other settlement happening tonight.

2793
02:17:54,233 --> 02:17:56,235
Settlement happening tonight. And trying to equate the amounts

2794
02:17:56,235 --> 02:17:57,403
and trying to equate the amounts is a matter of importance or

2795
02:17:57,403 --> 02:17:58,303
is a matter of importance or something is inaccurate. We

2796
02:17:58,303 --> 02:18:00,806
something is inaccurate. We support the legal department's

2797
02:18:00,806 --> 02:18:01,840
support the legal department's assessment that it is a

2798
02:18:01,840 --> 02:18:04,430
assessment that it is a financially responsible decision

2799
02:18:04,430 --> 02:18:08,881
financially responsible decision to settle this matter with. And

2800
02:18:08,881 --> 02:18:12,840
to settle this matter with. And at a time when I think we all

2801
02:18:12,840 --> 02:18:13,152
at a time when I think we all have things that we are

2802
02:18:13,152 --> 02:18:14,987
have things that we are demanding of the metro

2803
02:18:14,987 --> 02:18:16,188
demanding of the metro department of law to do, using a

2804
02:18:16,188 --> 02:18:19,324
department of law to do, using a lot of resources here to fight

2805
02:18:19,324 --> 02:18:21,930
lot of resources here to fight what sounds like a losing case

2806
02:18:21,930 --> 02:18:22,327
what sounds like a losing case just does not sound like a smart

2807
02:18:22,327 --> 02:18:24,530
just does not sound like a smart use of the resources at hand.

2808
02:18:24,530 --> 02:18:27,633
Use of the resources at hand. Thank you. Okay, no. Follow up.

2809
02:18:27,633 --> 02:18:29,535
Thank you. Okay, no. Follow up. Okay. MISS Ellis, COUNCILWOMAN

2810
02:18:29,535 --> 02:18:34,106
Okay. MISS Ellis, COUNCILWOMAN Hill, you are recognized. Thank

2811
02:18:34,106 --> 02:18:37,109
hill, you are recognized. Thank you, MADAM Vice mayor. I'm going

2812
02:18:37,109 --> 02:18:39,912
you, MADAM Vice mayor. I'm going to try my best to skirt where

2813
02:18:39,912 --> 02:18:41,814
to try my best to skirt where I'm at and where I stand with

2814
02:18:41,814 --> 02:18:43,816
I'm at and where I stand with this. As someone who's been in

2815
02:18:43,816 --> 02:18:46,510
this. As someone who's been in this situation, it amazes me how

2816
02:18:46,510 --> 02:18:50,122
this situation, it amazes me how some of the folks in the room

2817
02:18:50,122 --> 02:18:51,156
some of the folks in the room can attack someone that's a

2818
02:18:51,156 --> 02:18:53,459
can attack someone that's a victim that they don't know, and

2819
02:18:53,459 --> 02:18:55,661
victim that they don't know, and how someone can suddenly be a

2820
02:18:55,661 --> 02:18:57,563
how someone can suddenly be a really bad person and can take

2821
02:18:57,563 --> 02:18:59,640
really bad person and can take some of their personal traits.

2822
02:18:59,640 --> 02:19:00,933
Some of their personal traits. I'm going to vote in favor of

2823
02:19:00,933 --> 02:19:02,734
I'm going to vote in favor of yes of this, and that's all I

2824
02:19:02,734 --> 02:19:06,405
yes of this, and that's all I would say. Okay, MR. Bradford,

2825
02:19:06,405 --> 02:19:09,108
would say. Okay, MR. Bradford, you are recognized, sir. Thank

2826
02:19:09,108 --> 02:19:12,244
you are recognized, sir. Thank you, MADAM Vice mayor. So I am

2827
02:19:12,244 --> 02:19:13,479
you, MADAM Vice mayor. So I am standing in opposition to this.

2828
02:19:13,479 --> 02:19:16,482
Standing in opposition to this. I and my biggest problem with

2829
02:19:16,482 --> 02:19:20,619
I and my biggest problem with this settlement is that we're

2830
02:19:20,619 --> 02:19:23,522
this settlement is that we're taking $150,000 out of the 3

2831
02:19:23,522 --> 02:19:25,691
taking $150,000 out of the 3 million allocated to rectify the

2832
02:19:25,691 --> 02:19:28,694
million allocated to rectify the issue with grants funding. This

2833
02:19:28,694 --> 02:19:29,862
issue with grants funding. This is a personnel issue. We have a

2834
02:19:29,862 --> 02:19:32,664
is a personnel issue. We have a complete fund for judgments and

2835
02:19:32,664 --> 02:19:34,600
complete fund for judgments and settlements for personnel issues

2836
02:19:34,600 --> 02:19:36,969
settlements for personnel issues and other cases. And so I

2837
02:19:36,969 --> 02:19:38,203
and other cases. And so I disagree that to take this money

2838
02:19:38,203 --> 02:19:41,206
disagree that to take this money out of the money allocated for

2839
02:19:41,206 --> 02:19:42,674
out of the money allocated for artists. And so I'll be voting

2840
02:19:42,674 --> 02:19:44,900
artists. And so I'll be voting no. And I ask my colleagues to

2841
02:19:44,900 --> 02:19:46,912
no. And I ask my colleagues to do the same. Okay. MR. Bradford,

2842
02:19:46,912 --> 02:19:49,181
do the same. Okay. MR. Bradford, MISS Porterfield, it is back to

2843
02:19:49,181 --> 02:19:52,170
MISS Porterfield, it is back to you. You're recognized. Thank

2844
02:19:52,170 --> 02:19:56,121
you. You're recognized. Thank you. Vice mayor. I have two

2845
02:19:56,121 --> 02:19:57,289
you. Vice mayor. I have two questions that I will direct to

2846
02:19:57,289 --> 02:19:59,124
questions that I will direct to you. If we can get them answered

2847
02:19:59,124 --> 02:20:02,327
you. If we can get them answered from legal. Do we know when the

2848
02:20:02,327 --> 02:20:05,564
from legal. Do we know when the civil service tests were taken

2849
02:20:05,564 --> 02:20:08,333
civil service tests were taken by the two applicants? That's my

2850
02:20:08,333 --> 02:20:10,135
by the two applicants? That's my first question. And then my

2851
02:20:10,135 --> 02:20:14,673
first question. And then my second question is with MR.

2852
02:20:14,673 --> 02:20:16,675
Second question is with MR. Sadd's discrimination and

2853
02:20:16,675 --> 02:20:20,275
sadd's discrimination and discrimination allegations, is

2854
02:20:21,747 --> 02:20:24,783
discrimination allegations, is there any bearing that the

2855
02:20:24,783 --> 02:20:25,918
there any bearing that the person who got the job, I

2856
02:20:25,918 --> 02:20:29,855
person who got the job, I assume, is also a member of a

2857
02:20:29,855 --> 02:20:31,560
assume, is also a member of a protected class as a black queer

2858
02:20:31,560 --> 02:20:33,959
protected class as a black queer woman, my assumption would be

2859
02:20:33,959 --> 02:20:35,894
woman, my assumption would be that she's also a member of a

2860
02:20:35,894 --> 02:20:37,950
that she's also a member of a protected class. So how does

2861
02:20:37,950 --> 02:20:40,265
protected class. So how does that work when we're looking at

2862
02:20:40,265 --> 02:20:41,533
that work when we're looking at like discrimination cases? Okay,

2863
02:20:41,533 --> 02:20:44,303
like discrimination cases? Okay, the questions, as I understand

2864
02:20:44,303 --> 02:20:45,404
the questions, as I understand them, MISS Roberts from metro

2865
02:20:45,404 --> 02:20:47,573
them, MISS Roberts from metro legal is regarding the civil

2866
02:20:47,573 --> 02:20:50,409
legal is regarding the civil service examination. First, when

2867
02:20:50,409 --> 02:20:53,312
service examination. First, when those tests were taken for all

2868
02:20:53,312 --> 02:20:56,215
those tests were taken for all persons applying for this

2869
02:20:56,215 --> 02:20:57,382
persons applying for this position. Okay. So if we could

2870
02:20:57,382 --> 02:20:58,951
position. Okay. So if we could dispose of that first, I don't

2871
02:20:58,951 --> 02:21:01,954
dispose of that first, I don't have the exact date, but it

2872
02:21:01,954 --> 02:21:03,121
have the exact date, but it would have been fall of 2023.

2873
02:21:03,121 --> 02:21:05,900
Would have been fall of 2023. That was the first step in the

2874
02:21:05,900 --> 02:21:07,693
that was the first step in the process. Okay. And then the

2875
02:21:07,693 --> 02:21:09,695
process. Okay. And then the second question, as I understand

2876
02:21:09,695 --> 02:21:12,397
second question, as I understand it, would be to the question

2877
02:21:12,397 --> 02:21:15,300
it, would be to the question around discrimination that the

2878
02:21:15,300 --> 02:21:16,401
around discrimination that the person who was eventually hired

2879
02:21:16,401 --> 02:21:17,636
person who was eventually hired was also of a protected class.

2880
02:21:17,636 --> 02:21:19,471
Was also of a protected class. Can you respond to that

2881
02:21:19,471 --> 02:21:20,672
can you respond to that question, please? So that could

2882
02:21:20,672 --> 02:21:22,541
question, please? So that could have an impact? MR. Sad also has

2883
02:21:22,541 --> 02:21:24,309
have an impact? MR. Sad also has an age discrimination complaint,

2884
02:21:24,309 --> 02:21:27,212
an age discrimination complaint, and the person who got the

2885
02:21:27,212 --> 02:21:27,746
and the person who got the position is significantly

2886
02:21:27,746 --> 02:21:30,549
position is significantly younger than MR. Sad. I believe

2887
02:21:30,549 --> 02:21:33,485
younger than MR. Sad. I believe in her 20s, and so that wouldn't

2888
02:21:33,485 --> 02:21:34,386
in her 20s, and so that wouldn't necessarily offset for that

2889
02:21:34,386 --> 02:21:37,890
necessarily offset for that claim. But it it could be a

2890
02:21:37,890 --> 02:21:39,258
claim. But it it could be a factor. But again I still think

2891
02:21:39,258 --> 02:21:40,359
factor. But again I still think the overall merits of the case

2892
02:21:40,359 --> 02:21:42,227
the overall merits of the case are such that we would be asking

2893
02:21:42,227 --> 02:21:44,196
are such that we would be asking a jury to make a decision. Any

2894
02:21:44,196 --> 02:21:46,932
a jury to make a decision. Any follow up, MISS Porterfield?

2895
02:21:46,932 --> 02:21:50,235
Follow up, MISS Porterfield? Okay, MISS Johnston, you appear

2896
02:21:50,235 --> 02:21:52,271
okay, MISS Johnston, you appear to be the last in the queue. You

2897
02:21:52,271 --> 02:21:53,905
to be the last in the queue. You are recognized. I just have a

2898
02:21:53,905 --> 02:21:56,541
are recognized. I just have a question of finance. If we were

2899
02:21:56,541 --> 02:21:58,277
question of finance. If we were to proceed with litigation and

2900
02:21:58,277 --> 02:22:01,113
to proceed with litigation and were to lose the case to the

2901
02:22:01,113 --> 02:22:04,616
were to lose the case to the point where we are having to pay

2902
02:22:04,616 --> 02:22:06,418
point where we are having to pay out more than $150,000, let's

2903
02:22:06,418 --> 02:22:08,587
out more than $150,000, let's say it's $300,000 or whatever

2904
02:22:08,587 --> 02:22:11,156
say it's $300,000 or whatever for 50. I think somebody said

2905
02:22:11,156 --> 02:22:12,224
for 50. I think somebody said yesterday, right, for 50, would

2906
02:22:12,224 --> 02:22:16,228
yesterday, right, for 50, would that for 50 come out of the same

2907
02:22:16,228 --> 02:22:19,364
that for 50 come out of the same $3 million tranche? So we're

2908
02:22:19,364 --> 02:22:20,365
$3 million tranche? So we're potentially putting I'm seeing

2909
02:22:20,365 --> 02:22:22,801
potentially putting I'm seeing heads nodding is why I'm do we

2910
02:22:22,801 --> 02:22:25,937
heads nodding is why I'm do we need to put that on the record.

2911
02:22:25,937 --> 02:22:27,873
Need to put that on the record. Do you want to complete the

2912
02:22:27,873 --> 02:22:30,142
do you want to complete the question or you just want that

2913
02:22:30,142 --> 02:22:31,109
question or you just want that acknowledgment for that first

2914
02:22:31,109 --> 02:22:32,311
acknowledgment for that first part. You want to just go ahead

2915
02:22:32,311 --> 02:22:34,212
part. You want to just go ahead and complete. Yes. So well I

2916
02:22:34,212 --> 02:22:36,481
and complete. Yes. So well I just want to ask them and get it

2917
02:22:36,481 --> 02:22:38,483
just want to ask them and get it on the record that if we were to

2918
02:22:38,483 --> 02:22:40,652
on the record that if we were to lose the case and we have that

2919
02:22:40,652 --> 02:22:41,286
lose the case and we have that higher amount, that we have to

2920
02:22:41,286 --> 02:22:42,754
higher amount, that we have to pay out anywhere between 300 and

2921
02:22:42,754 --> 02:22:43,889
pay out anywhere between 300 and 450, $450,000, that that amount

2922
02:22:43,889 --> 02:22:46,240
450, $450,000, that that amount comes out of the $3 million fund

2923
02:22:46,240 --> 02:22:47,590
comes out of the $3 million fund that we have created for this

2924
02:22:47,590 --> 02:22:48,827
that we have created for this purpose. Correct. MR. Moyer, can

2925
02:22:48,827 --> 02:22:50,620
purpose. Correct. MR. Moyer, can you speak that into the record,

2926
02:22:50,620 --> 02:22:51,897
you speak that into the record, please? Yes, ma'am. That's

2927
02:22:51,897 --> 02:22:52,998
please? Yes, ma'am. That's correct. Okay. Okay. So we are

2928
02:22:52,998 --> 02:22:55,901
correct. Okay. Okay. So we are listening to metro legal say we

2929
02:22:55,901 --> 02:22:58,236
listening to metro legal say we think we could lose this case.

2930
02:22:58,236 --> 02:23:00,238
Think we could lose this case. It's a 50 over 50 shot at best,

2931
02:23:00,238 --> 02:23:01,840
it's a 50 over 50 shot at best, and we're worried about $150,000

2932
02:23:01,840 --> 02:23:04,900
and we're worried about $150,000 being pulled out of this fund

2933
02:23:04,900 --> 02:23:06,912
being pulled out of this fund when we're really risking a lot

2934
02:23:06,912 --> 02:23:10,150
when we're really risking a lot more than that. I just want to

2935
02:23:10,150 --> 02:23:11,183
more than that. I just want to make sure that everyone is aware

2936
02:23:11,183 --> 02:23:14,519
make sure that everyone is aware of that. I understand that there

2937
02:23:14,519 --> 02:23:15,654
of that. I understand that there are people that don't want to

2938
02:23:15,654 --> 02:23:17,689
are people that don't want to pay this person any money. I

2939
02:23:17,689 --> 02:23:19,458
pay this person any money. I totally get that. And I get

2940
02:23:19,458 --> 02:23:21,493
totally get that. And I get wanting to fight. I get that

2941
02:23:21,493 --> 02:23:23,562
wanting to fight. I get that too. I'm I'm kind of a fighter,

2942
02:23:23,562 --> 02:23:25,797
too. I'm I'm kind of a fighter, but I also don't like to lose.

2943
02:23:25,797 --> 02:23:28,667
But I also don't like to lose. And when I've got people smarter

2944
02:23:28,667 --> 02:23:32,838
and when I've got people smarter than me in a particular category

2945
02:23:32,838 --> 02:23:35,874
than me in a particular category and they're telling me this is a

2946
02:23:35,874 --> 02:23:37,776
and they're telling me this is a bad bet, I'm I'm probably not

2947
02:23:37,776 --> 02:23:39,911
bad bet, I'm I'm probably not going to make that bet. As

2948
02:23:39,911 --> 02:23:42,130
going to make that bet. As difficult as it is to write a

2949
02:23:42,130 --> 02:23:43,181
difficult as it is to write a check to someone that you don't

2950
02:23:43,181 --> 02:23:45,250
check to someone that you don't want to write a check to. I 100%

2951
02:23:45,250 --> 02:23:46,585
want to write a check to. I 100% get that. I think we're in a

2952
02:23:46,585 --> 02:23:48,754
get that. I think we're in a really bad situation, but I did

2953
02:23:48,754 --> 02:23:50,210
really bad situation, but I did want to make sure that everyone

2954
02:23:50,210 --> 02:23:51,690
want to make sure that everyone understands that we are risking

2955
02:23:51,690 --> 02:23:53,859
understands that we are risking a heck of a lot more coming out

2956
02:23:53,859 --> 02:23:55,460
a heck of a lot more coming out of this fund than what we're

2957
02:23:55,460 --> 02:23:56,561
of this fund than what we're proposing to settle with this

2958
02:23:56,561 --> 02:23:58,463
proposing to settle with this man. Thank you, MISS Johnston.

2959
02:23:58,463 --> 02:23:58,997
Man. Thank you, MISS Johnston. COUNCILWOMAN Suara, you're

2960
02:23:58,997 --> 02:24:03,197
COUNCILWOMAN Suara, you're recognized. Thank you, vice

2961
02:24:04,302 --> 02:24:07,272
recognized. Thank you, vice mayor. My comment is not about

2962
02:24:07,272 --> 02:24:09,641
mayor. My comment is not about the individual, and it has

2963
02:24:09,641 --> 02:24:11,843
the individual, and it has nothing to do with branding them

2964
02:24:11,843 --> 02:24:14,312
nothing to do with branding them as a bad person. I don't know

2965
02:24:14,312 --> 02:24:17,149
as a bad person. I don't know them, but my thoughts and my

2966
02:24:17,149 --> 02:24:18,250
them, but my thoughts and my comments relate to what's been

2967
02:24:18,250 --> 02:24:20,852
comments relate to what's been going on with metro arts. The

2968
02:24:20,852 --> 02:24:23,455
going on with metro arts. The whole process. It also has to do

2969
02:24:23,455 --> 02:24:26,525
whole process. It also has to do with legal decision not to

2970
02:24:26,525 --> 02:24:29,127
with legal decision not to litigate when we're talking

2971
02:24:29,127 --> 02:24:32,970
litigate when we're talking about one 5300, we're talking

2972
02:24:32,970 --> 02:24:33,980
about one 5300, we're talking about that individual person.

2973
02:24:33,980 --> 02:24:34,299
About that individual person. But we should also think about

2974
02:24:34,299 --> 02:24:35,934
but we should also think about the trust and what people in the

2975
02:24:35,934 --> 02:24:38,370
the trust and what people in the community feels. I remember when

2976
02:24:38,370 --> 02:24:41,840
community feels. I remember when lego decided not to litigate the

2977
02:24:41,840 --> 02:24:44,676
lego decided not to litigate the cobb issue. That issue is still

2978
02:24:44,676 --> 02:24:47,546
cobb issue. That issue is still in the community up until now,

2979
02:24:47,546 --> 02:24:48,747
in the community up until now, and there are still people that

2980
02:24:48,747 --> 02:24:50,882
and there are still people that feel like even if it's a there's

2981
02:24:50,882 --> 02:24:52,584
feel like even if it's a there's a reason behind it, it's a good

2982
02:24:52,584 --> 02:24:53,819
a reason behind it, it's a good reason behind it or whatever it

2983
02:24:53,819 --> 02:24:54,920
reason behind it or whatever it is. There's still people that

2984
02:24:54,920 --> 02:24:57,622
is. There's still people that felt like we did not do enough.

2985
02:24:57,622 --> 02:24:59,491
Felt like we did not do enough. And I think that's what I want

2986
02:24:59,491 --> 02:25:00,659
and I think that's what I want us to consider. The people that

2987
02:25:00,659 --> 02:25:01,827
us to consider. The people that felt like with the history and

2988
02:25:01,827 --> 02:25:02,694
felt like with the history and everything that's happening with

2989
02:25:02,694 --> 02:25:04,596
everything that's happening with metro arts, that this shouldn't

2990
02:25:04,596 --> 02:25:06,431
metro arts, that this shouldn't just be settled like that. It

2991
02:25:06,431 --> 02:25:08,633
just be settled like that. It opens the door. Coupled with the

2992
02:25:08,633 --> 02:25:10,635
opens the door. Coupled with the fact that the person is not a

2993
02:25:10,635 --> 02:25:13,839
fact that the person is not a metro employee, but a temp at

2994
02:25:13,839 --> 02:25:16,208
metro employee, but a temp at the contract. I ask in budget ye

2995
02:25:16,208 --> 02:25:17,776
the contract. I ask in budget ye people can go back and look at

2996
02:25:17,776 --> 02:25:19,511
people can go back and look at it. Our obligation or the

2997
02:25:19,511 --> 02:25:22,614
it. Our obligation or the person's contract is with the

2998
02:25:22,614 --> 02:25:23,815
person's contract is with the agency, not with metro. So those

2999
02:25:23,815 --> 02:25:26,485
agency, not with metro. So those are some of the reasons that I'm

3000
02:25:26,485 --> 02:25:28,353
are some of the reasons that I'm looking at. And I think that i

3001
02:25:28,353 --> 02:25:28,954
looking at. And I think that I was just saying, let's settle

3002
02:25:28,954 --> 02:25:30,789
was just saying, let's settle this so that we can go away.

3003
02:25:30,789 --> 02:25:32,691
This so that we can go away. Let's choose the people that

3004
02:25:32,691 --> 02:25:34,626
let's choose the people that felt like we need to do more and

3005
02:25:34,626 --> 02:25:35,760
felt like we need to do more and we need to ask more. And we

3006
02:25:35,760 --> 02:25:37,529
we need to ask more. And we need. So I think in my opinion,

3007
02:25:37,529 --> 02:25:38,697
need. So I think in my opinion, I think we should more. And

3008
02:25:38,697 --> 02:25:41,500
I think we should more. And lastly, I understand the 125 is

3009
02:25:41,500 --> 02:25:43,535
lastly, I understand the 125 is not what this woman is getting,

3010
02:25:43,535 --> 02:25:44,569
not what this woman is getting, the only thing that she's

3011
02:25:44,569 --> 02:25:45,704
the only thing that she's getting. But when you're looking

3012
02:25:45,704 --> 02:25:47,739
getting. But when you're looking at it, we talk about trust in

3013
02:25:47,739 --> 02:25:49,700
at it, we talk about trust in government. We talk about

3014
02:25:49,700 --> 02:25:50,275
government. We talk about perception. We talk about how

3015
02:25:50,275 --> 02:25:53,440
perception. We talk about how people feel. It's just what is

3016
02:25:53,440 --> 02:25:55,213
people feel. It's just what is out there. And I think it's very

3017
02:25:55,213 --> 02:25:56,381
out there. And I think it's very important for us to know that

3018
02:25:56,381 --> 02:25:58,160
important for us to know that we're listening to the people

3019
02:25:58,160 --> 02:25:59,217
we're listening to the people that are out there and that we

3020
02:25:59,217 --> 02:26:02,153
that are out there and that we are taking all of that. I've not

3021
02:26:02,153 --> 02:26:04,990
are taking all of that. I've not heard that we will lose it. It's

3022
02:26:04,990 --> 02:26:06,958
heard that we will lose it. It's a 50 over 50% chance. And when

3023
02:26:06,958 --> 02:26:09,160
a 50 over 50% chance. And when we ask yesterday, one of the

3024
02:26:09,160 --> 02:26:11,620
we ask yesterday, one of the reasons why we thought we would

3025
02:26:11,620 --> 02:26:13,298
reasons why we thought we would lose is because we MAY not get

3026
02:26:13,298 --> 02:26:14,332
lose is because we MAY not get daniel singh to come and

3027
02:26:14,332 --> 02:26:15,567
daniel singh to come and witness, be a witness. Somebody

3028
02:26:15,567 --> 02:26:17,402
witness, be a witness. Somebody asked, are we even tried to

3029
02:26:17,402 --> 02:26:20,380
asked, are we even tried to contact him and ask if we would?

3030
02:26:20,380 --> 02:26:22,700
Contact him and ask if we would? We said we haven't. And so I

3031
02:26:22,700 --> 02:26:23,475
we said we haven't. And so I don't think we've done

3032
02:26:23,475 --> 02:26:24,976
don't think we've done everything. And

3033
02:26:24,976 --> 02:26:28,847
everything. And point we should not settle yet.

3034
02:26:28,847 --> 02:26:30,849
Point we should not settle yet. If we do settle, I agree that it

3035
02:26:30,849 --> 02:26:32,851
if we do settle, I agree that it should be for a lesser amount.

3036
02:26:32,851 --> 02:26:34,986
Should be for a lesser amount. Okay. Thank you, MISS Suara.

3170
02:33:06,511 --> 02:33:08,579
porterfield. Thank you, vice mayor. We had a very lengthy

3171
02:33:08,579 --> 02:33:11,482
mayor. We had a very lengthy discussion about this on

3172
02:33:11,482 --> 02:33:14,886
discussion about this on yesterday, and I was extremely

3173
02:33:14,886 --> 02:33:16,870
yesterday, and I was extremely torn on which way that I was

3174
02:33:16,870 --> 02:33:17,889
torn on which way that I was going to vote on this. I believe

3175
02:33:17,889 --> 02:33:20,491
going to vote on this. I believe that the amount should be

3176
02:33:20,491 --> 02:33:21,693
that the amount should be higher, which is why I really

3177
02:33:21,693 --> 02:33:24,729
higher, which is why I really struggled with how how we should

3178
02:33:24,729 --> 02:33:27,665
struggled with how how we should move forward. We did have a lot

3179
02:33:27,665 --> 02:33:29,934
move forward. We did have a lot of questions for the sheriff's

3180
02:33:29,934 --> 02:33:33,710
of questions for the sheriff's department with regards to the

3181
02:33:33,710 --> 02:33:35,907
department with regards to the supervisor that is listed in the

3182
02:33:35,907 --> 02:33:39,344
supervisor that is listed in the analysis of the legislation.

3183
02:33:39,344 --> 02:33:42,246
Analysis of the legislation. Lots of concerns about the

3184
02:33:42,246 --> 02:33:45,316
lots of concerns about the supervisor being what's the word

3185
02:33:45,316 --> 02:33:48,152
supervisor being what's the word not punished, disciplined, the

3186
02:33:48,152 --> 02:33:49,153
not punished, disciplined, the supervisor being disciplined,

3187
02:33:49,153 --> 02:33:51,789
supervisor being disciplined, whereas the there was more

3188
02:33:51,789 --> 02:33:53,624
whereas the there was more concern about what has happened

3189
02:33:53,624 --> 02:33:55,326
concern about what has happened to ensure that this doesn't

3190
02:33:55,326 --> 02:33:57,161
to ensure that this doesn't happen again. So as opposed to

3191
02:33:57,161 --> 02:33:59,430
happen again. So as opposed to just being disciplined, what

3192
02:33:59,430 --> 02:34:00,598
just being disciplined, what have they done to like ensure

3193
02:34:00,598 --> 02:34:02,266
have they done to like ensure that this does not happen again?

3194
02:34:02,266 --> 02:34:03,468
That this does not happen again? Going forward? So I still have

3195
02:34:03,468 --> 02:34:05,770
going forward? So I still have lots of concerns. But ultimately

3196
02:34:05,770 --> 02:34:08,406
lots of concerns. But ultimately in the conversation yesterday,

3197
02:34:08,406 --> 02:34:09,640
in the conversation yesterday, what we learned from legal was

3198
02:34:09,640 --> 02:34:14,212
what we learned from legal was that if we voted this down, in

3199
02:34:14,212 --> 02:34:17,448
that if we voted this down, in essence, they would go to court.

3200
02:34:17,448 --> 02:34:18,549
Essence, they would go to court. And my understanding is that

3201
02:34:18,549 --> 02:34:20,718
and my understanding is that they would go to court and then

3202
02:34:20,718 --> 02:34:21,819
they would go to court and then it's not guaranteed that the

3203
02:34:21,819 --> 02:34:23,688
it's not guaranteed that the individual would get anything

3204
02:34:23,688 --> 02:34:26,624
individual would get anything from metro. So my understanding

3205
02:34:26,624 --> 02:34:28,393
from metro. So my understanding is that if we voted down, the

3206
02:34:28,393 --> 02:34:29,727
is that if we voted down, the person MAY not get anything, but

3207
02:34:29,727 --> 02:34:31,629
person MAY not get anything, but that does not give the ability

3208
02:34:31,629 --> 02:34:33,231
that does not give the ability to increase the amount, like we

3209
02:34:33,231 --> 02:34:35,330
to increase the amount, like we don't have the ability to

3210
02:34:35,330 --> 02:34:35,833
don't have the ability to increase the amount. So with

3211
02:34:35,833 --> 02:34:36,968
increase the amount. So with that being said, I'm going to

3212
02:34:36,968 --> 02:34:38,803
that being said, I'm going to vote for it because I do want

3213
02:34:38,803 --> 02:34:41,506
vote for it because I do want the deceased family member to be

3214
02:34:41,506 --> 02:34:45,430
the deceased family member to be able to get the settlement, and

3215
02:34:45,430 --> 02:34:46,844
able to get the settlement, and I don't want to hold that up,

3216
02:34:46,844 --> 02:34:48,713
I don't want to hold that up, but I did have one question. If

3217
02:34:48,713 --> 02:34:54,520
but I did have one question. If I could pose it to legal to MISS

3218
02:34:54,520 --> 02:34:55,920
I could pose it to legal to MISS Bussell, who I believe is the

3219
02:34:55,920 --> 02:34:57,155
bussell, who I believe is the lead attorney on this case, like

3220
02:34:57,155 --> 02:34:59,824
lead attorney on this case, like if she if she could just speak

3221
02:34:59,824 --> 02:35:02,994
if she if she could just speak to how often legal I think we

3222
02:35:02,994 --> 02:35:04,195
to how often legal I think we see the settlements. We don't

3223
02:35:04,195 --> 02:35:06,297
see the settlements. We don't always hear about, like when

3224
02:35:06,297 --> 02:35:09,100
always hear about, like when legal is actually going to trial

3225
02:35:09,100 --> 02:35:10,968
legal is actually going to trial on these cases. So if we could

3226
02:35:10,968 --> 02:35:12,703
on these cases. So if we could hear how often legal is going to

3227
02:35:12,703 --> 02:35:13,771
hear how often legal is going to trial versus when they are

3228
02:35:13,771 --> 02:35:15,740
trial versus when they are settling the case. And also if

3229
02:35:15,740 --> 02:35:18,509
settling the case. And also if she could just speak to I know I

3230
02:35:18,509 --> 02:35:19,644
she could just speak to I know I gave an overview of what we

3231
02:35:19,644 --> 02:35:20,645
gave an overview of what we discussed in committee

3232
02:35:20,645 --> 02:35:21,312
discussed in committee yesterday, but if she could just

3233
02:35:21,312 --> 02:35:23,181
yesterday, but if she could just speak to the body to let us

3234
02:35:23,181 --> 02:35:25,116
speak to the body to let us know, like what happens if we

3235
02:35:25,116 --> 02:35:26,284
know, like what happens if we vote this down and is there an

3236
02:35:26,284 --> 02:35:28,860
vote this down and is there an opportunity to give MISS York's

3237
02:35:28,860 --> 02:35:29,187
opportunity to give MISS York's family an increased amount?

3238
02:35:29,187 --> 02:35:31,823
Family an increased amount? Okay, MISS Bussell, you are

3239
02:35:31,823 --> 02:35:32,824
okay, MISS Bussell, you are recognized for the legal

3240
02:35:32,824 --> 02:35:34,358
recognized for the legal department. Good evening.

3241
02:35:34,358 --> 02:35:37,995
Department. Good evening. Council. Yes. So it is certainly

3242
02:35:37,995 --> 02:35:40,364
council. Yes. So it is certainly true that we litigate more than

3243
02:35:40,364 --> 02:35:45,336
true that we litigate more than we propose settlements for, by

3244
02:35:45,336 --> 02:35:47,371
we propose settlements for, by the way, that the metro code is

3245
02:35:47,371 --> 02:35:48,806
the way, that the metro code is written there are certain

3246
02:35:48,806 --> 02:35:49,807
written there are certain reports that come to the

3247
02:35:49,807 --> 02:35:51,909
reports that come to the council. You see those reports

3248
02:35:51,909 --> 02:35:52,877
council. You see those reports for significant litigation as

3249
02:35:52,877 --> 02:35:54,712
for significant litigation as that's defined in the code, and

3250
02:35:54,712 --> 02:35:57,215
that's defined in the code, and you see judgments against metro.

3251
02:35:57,215 --> 02:35:58,316
you see judgments against metro. You don't often see the good

3252
02:35:58,316 --> 02:36:01,519
you don't often see the good news. In fact, you rarely see

3253
02:36:01,519 --> 02:36:02,920
news. In fact, you rarely see the good news. And we win an

3254
02:36:02,920 --> 02:36:06,224
the good news. And we win an overwhelming number of the

3255
02:36:06,224 --> 02:36:07,358
overwhelming number of the lawsuits that are filed against

3256
02:36:07,358 --> 02:36:09,193
lawsuits that are filed against the city. I'm happy to provide

3257
02:36:09,193 --> 02:36:10,228
the city. I'm happy to provide that information to the council

3258
02:36:10,228 --> 02:36:12,430
that information to the council and report form. If that would

3259
02:36:12,430 --> 02:36:14,232
and report form. If that would be helpful, to sort of quash

3260
02:36:14,232 --> 02:36:15,366
be helpful, to sort of quash this narrative that metro legal

3261
02:36:15,366 --> 02:36:17,935
this narrative that metro legal just wants to settle cases. I've

3262
02:36:17,935 --> 02:36:19,170
just wants to settle cases. I've tried a lot of cases in my

3263
02:36:19,170 --> 02:36:21,539
tried a lot of cases in my career. I've won a lot of cases

3264
02:36:21,539 --> 02:36:23,374
career. I've won a lot of cases in my career. My colleagues have

3265
02:36:23,374 --> 02:36:24,742
in my career. My colleagues have tried a lot of cases and won a

3266
02:36:24,742 --> 02:36:27,445
tried a lot of cases and won a lot of cases. We resolve most

3267
02:36:27,445 --> 02:36:28,546
lot of cases. We resolve most cases before they ever get to

3268
02:36:28,546 --> 02:36:30,748
cases before they ever get to trial in motion practice. We

3269
02:36:30,748 --> 02:36:33,217
trial in motion practice. We also try a lot of cases. So if

3270
02:36:33,217 --> 02:36:36,200
also try a lot of cases. So if we're here talking about a

3271
02:36:36,200 --> 02:36:37,121
we're here talking about a settlement, it's because we feel

3272
02:36:37,121 --> 02:36:38,990
settlement, it's because we feel pretty strongly that there is

3273
02:36:38,990 --> 02:36:40,570
pretty strongly that there is significant risk to metro in

3274
02:36:40,570 --> 02:36:42,360
significant risk to metro in proceeding with the case. That's

3275
02:36:42,360 --> 02:36:44,195
proceeding with the case. That's the only reason we come before

3276
02:36:44,195 --> 02:36:46,397
the only reason we come before you to ask for you to approve a

3277
02:36:46,397 --> 02:36:47,498
you to ask for you to approve a settlement. If we believe that

3278
02:36:47,498 --> 02:36:49,300
settlement. If we believe that we've got a good shot at winning

3279
02:36:49,300 --> 02:36:50,368
we've got a good shot at winning a case, we're going to litigate

3280
02:36:50,368 --> 02:36:52,103
a case, we're going to litigate it. We love working here because

3281
02:36:52,103 --> 02:36:54,105
it. We love working here because we get to litigate cases here in

3282
02:36:54,105 --> 02:36:55,106
we get to litigate cases here in private practice. That doesn't

3283
02:36:55,106 --> 02:36:57,942
private practice. That doesn't happen as often. And so I can

3284
02:36:57,942 --> 02:37:00,111
happen as often. And so I can assure you, on behalf of the

3285
02:37:00,111 --> 02:37:01,179
assure you, on behalf of the legal department that we are

3286
02:37:01,179 --> 02:37:03,981
legal department that we are coming to you when and only when

3287
02:37:03,981 --> 02:37:06,517
coming to you when and only when we have concerns about risk to

3288
02:37:06,517 --> 02:37:08,519
we have concerns about risk to the city financial risk to the

3289
02:37:08,519 --> 02:37:10,321
the city financial risk to the city, and proceeding with the

3290
02:37:10,321 --> 02:37:12,323
city, and proceeding with the lawsuit. So again, if it would

3291
02:37:12,323 --> 02:37:14,125
lawsuit. So again, if it would be helpful for any of you to see

3292
02:37:14,125 --> 02:37:17,562
be helpful for any of you to see reporting on how often we win, I

3293
02:37:17,562 --> 02:37:20,731
reporting on how often we win, I think just off the top of my

3294
02:37:20,731 --> 02:37:22,600
think just off the top of my head, there are anywhere between

3295
02:37:22,600 --> 02:37:23,768
head, there are anywhere between 105 and 130 lawsuits pending,

3296
02:37:23,768 --> 02:37:27,838
105 and 130 lawsuits pending, right now against metro, so that

3297
02:37:27,838 --> 02:37:29,600
right now against metro, so that perhaps will give you a little

3298
02:37:29,600 --> 02:37:31,175
perhaps will give you a little bit of perspective on kind of

3299
02:37:31,175 --> 02:37:34,845
bit of perspective on kind of the difference between what

3300
02:37:34,845 --> 02:37:36,447
the difference between what you're seeing in terms of

3301
02:37:36,447 --> 02:37:37,215
you're seeing in terms of proposed settlements and what

3302
02:37:37,215 --> 02:37:39,884
proposed settlements and what we're actually defending. Thank

3303
02:37:39,884 --> 02:37:41,520
we're actually defending. Thank you. There was there another

3304
02:37:41,520 --> 02:37:43,654
you. There was there another question or another piece in

3305
02:37:43,654 --> 02:37:45,957
question or another piece in there, if you could just clarify

3306
02:37:45,957 --> 02:37:48,392
there, if you could just clarify that? Yes. The other kind of

3307
02:37:48,392 --> 02:37:49,627
that? Yes. The other kind of lawsuit, I forgot my question.

3308
02:37:49,627 --> 02:37:52,330
Lawsuit, I forgot my question. The other piece, how often are

3309
02:37:52,330 --> 02:37:54,165
the other piece, how often are we going to trial you expressly?

3310
02:37:54,165 --> 02:37:55,233
We going to trial you expressly? Oh, just clarifying for

3311
02:37:55,233 --> 02:37:57,168
oh, just clarifying for individuals like myself who felt

3312
02:37:57,168 --> 02:37:59,904
individuals like myself who felt that we should give MISS York's

3313
02:37:59,904 --> 02:38:01,500
that we should give MISS York's family more money, like, if we

3314
02:38:01,500 --> 02:38:02,840
family more money, like, if we vote this down, is there

3315
02:38:02,840 --> 02:38:03,975
vote this down, is there opportunity to give more money?

3316
02:38:03,975 --> 02:38:06,143
Opportunity to give more money? And I know yesterday we were

3317
02:38:06,143 --> 02:38:07,979
and I know yesterday we were told no to counsel for shaking

3318
02:38:07,979 --> 02:38:10,140
told no to counsel for shaking her head. I know we were told

3319
02:38:10,140 --> 02:38:12,160
her head. I know we were told that, but just to get it on the

3320
02:38:12,160 --> 02:38:13,517
that, but just to get it on the record for the rest of the body

3321
02:38:13,517 --> 02:38:15,186
record for the rest of the body that that did not hear that. I

3322
02:38:15,186 --> 02:38:16,354
that that did not hear that. I appreciate that, MISS Bussell.

3323
02:38:16,354 --> 02:38:18,890
Appreciate that, MISS Bussell. Go ahead. Yes. And so under the

3324
02:38:18,890 --> 02:38:19,924
go ahead. Yes. And so under the metro code, the director of law

3325
02:38:19,924 --> 02:38:21,525
metro code, the director of law can propose or basically

3326
02:38:21,525 --> 02:38:23,894
can propose or basically recommend settlements above

3327
02:38:23,894 --> 02:38:24,895
recommend settlements above $5,000 for personal injury

3328
02:38:24,895 --> 02:38:26,998
$5,000 for personal injury damages to the council for a

3329
02:38:26,998 --> 02:38:28,899
damages to the council for a thumbs up or thumbs down vote.

3330
02:38:28,899 --> 02:38:30,801
Thumbs up or thumbs down vote. So when you vote to approve or

3331
02:38:30,801 --> 02:38:32,737
so when you vote to approve or vote against approval of that

3332
02:38:32,737 --> 02:38:33,771
vote against approval of that settlement, then we proceed

3333
02:38:33,771 --> 02:38:35,740
settlement, then we proceed accordingly. If you vote this

3334
02:38:35,740 --> 02:38:36,774
accordingly. If you vote this settlement down, then I will

3335
02:38:36,774 --> 02:38:39,844
settlement down, then I will defend the lawsuit. Me and my

3336
02:38:39,844 --> 02:38:40,811
defend the lawsuit. Me and my colleague andrew mcclanahan, who

3337
02:38:40,811 --> 02:38:43,147
colleague andrew mcclanahan, who is also working this case with

3338
02:38:43,147 --> 02:38:44,315
is also working this case with me, will defend the lawsuit. Do

3339
02:38:44,315 --> 02:38:46,517
me, will defend the lawsuit. Do the best we can. If I thought I

3340
02:38:46,517 --> 02:38:48,386
the best we can. If I thought I had a really good shot of

3341
02:38:48,386 --> 02:38:49,687
had a really good shot of winning this case, I wouldn't be

3342
02:38:49,687 --> 02:38:51,455
winning this case, I wouldn't be here tonight standing in front

3343
02:38:51,455 --> 02:38:52,189
here tonight standing in front of you asking for approval of

3344
02:38:52,189 --> 02:38:53,157
of you asking for approval of the settlement. I also think

3345
02:38:53,157 --> 02:38:54,725
the settlement. I also think it's important to note that this

3346
02:38:54,725 --> 02:38:57,528
it's important to note that this settlement was the product of a

3347
02:38:57,528 --> 02:38:58,529
settlement was the product of a mediation, not just a

3348
02:38:58,529 --> 02:39:02,867
mediation, not just a negotiation, but a mediation. We

3349
02:39:02,867 --> 02:39:04,350
negotiation, but a mediation. We sort out that process in hopes

3350
02:39:04,350 --> 02:39:06,137
sort out that process in hopes of resolving this without

3351
02:39:06,137 --> 02:39:08,572
of resolving this without unnecessary, protracted

3352
02:39:08,572 --> 02:39:11,375
unnecessary, protracted litigation. We also got wellpath

3353
02:39:11,375 --> 02:39:13,210
litigation. We also got wellpath and their counsel to come to the

3354
02:39:13,210 --> 02:39:14,712
and their counsel to come to the table through a lot of efforts

3355
02:39:14,712 --> 02:39:16,447
table through a lot of efforts between me and the sheriff's

3356
02:39:16,447 --> 02:39:17,448
between me and the sheriff's office representative to get

3357
02:39:17,448 --> 02:39:19,450
office representative to get them to come to the table to be

3358
02:39:19,450 --> 02:39:20,151
them to come to the table to be part of that discussion. I can't

3359
02:39:20,151 --> 02:39:21,919
part of that discussion. I can't get into the details of their

3360
02:39:21,919 --> 02:39:23,220
get into the details of their portion of the settlement. I

3361
02:39:23,220 --> 02:39:26,223
portion of the settlement. I can't get into the details of

3362
02:39:26,223 --> 02:39:27,325
can't get into the details of their portion of the settlement.

3363
02:39:27,325 --> 02:39:29,827
Their portion of the settlement. But MISS York, the mother of the

3364
02:39:29,827 --> 02:39:31,962
but MISS York, the mother of the lady who died by suicide, is

3365
02:39:31,962 --> 02:39:34,980
lady who died by suicide, is getting more than $125,000. And

3366
02:39:34,980 --> 02:39:37,468
getting more than $125,000. And to be clear, she would not have

3367
02:39:37,468 --> 02:39:39,437
to be clear, she would not have agreed to that settlement if she

3368
02:39:39,437 --> 02:39:41,405
agreed to that settlement if she wanted to go to trial. So this

3369
02:39:41,405 --> 02:39:44,575
wanted to go to trial. So this was the product of a very, a

3370
02:39:44,575 --> 02:39:48,479
was the product of a very, a very a day long negotiation at a

3371
02:39:48,479 --> 02:39:53,500
very a day long negotiation at a mediation. And if, if you vote

3372
02:39:53,500 --> 02:39:54,850
mediation. And if, if you vote this down, then we will

3373
02:39:54,850 --> 02:39:56,354
this down, then we will essentially have no choice but

3374
02:39:56,354 --> 02:39:57,555
essentially have no choice but to defend the lawsuit at that

3375
02:39:57,555 --> 02:39:59,657
to defend the lawsuit at that point. And wellpath is not part

3376
02:39:59,657 --> 02:40:01,459
point. And wellpath is not part of the case anymore because they

3377
02:40:01,459 --> 02:40:02,260
of the case anymore because they have settled, essentially

3378
02:40:02,260 --> 02:40:03,728
have settled, essentially settled out. So it would then

3379
02:40:03,728 --> 02:40:05,830
settled out. So it would then just be metro left to litigate

3380
02:40:05,830 --> 02:40:07,732
just be metro left to litigate the case. Thank you. Thank you,

3381
02:40:07,732 --> 02:40:09,433
the case. Thank you. Thank you, MISS Bustle. One more. Just

3382
02:40:09,433 --> 02:40:11,402
MISS Bustle. One more. Just really brief clarifying. If I

3383
02:40:11,402 --> 02:40:12,603
really brief clarifying. If I MAY. So to clarify, if we vote

3384
02:40:12,603 --> 02:40:16,707
MAY. So to clarify, if we vote this down, then the case goes to

3385
02:40:16,707 --> 02:40:17,708
this down, then the case goes to trial. You are defending the

3386
02:40:17,708 --> 02:40:19,877
trial. You are defending the case, which means that you would

3387
02:40:19,877 --> 02:40:23,914
case, which means that you would be defending metro. So there's a

3388
02:40:23,914 --> 02:40:24,915
be defending metro. So there's a possibility that MISS York's

3389
02:40:24,915 --> 02:40:28,219
possibility that MISS York's mother does not get any of the

3390
02:40:28,219 --> 02:40:29,720
mother does not get any of the 125 at that point. MISS Bustle.

3391
02:40:29,720 --> 02:40:34,580
125 at that point. MISS Bustle. Yes. I wouldn't be here if I

3392
02:40:34,580 --> 02:40:35,993
yes. I wouldn't be here if I thought I had a substantial

3393
02:40:35,993 --> 02:40:39,630
thought I had a substantial chance of winning. I wouldn't be

3394
02:40:39,630 --> 02:40:40,798
chance of winning. I wouldn't be proposing this to you. But that

3395
02:40:40,798 --> 02:40:42,660
proposing this to you. But that is certainly possible. There

3396
02:40:42,660 --> 02:40:46,137
is certainly possible. There again, wellpath was part of

3397
02:40:46,137 --> 02:40:48,205
again, wellpath was part of this. We can still certainly

3398
02:40:48,205 --> 02:40:49,273
this. We can still certainly talk about wellpath role. If we

3399
02:40:49,273 --> 02:40:52,410
talk about wellpath role. If we were to take this case to trial,

3400
02:40:52,410 --> 02:40:54,211
were to take this case to trial, and we certainly would be

3401
02:40:54,211 --> 02:40:55,312
and we certainly would be talking about, well, well, pat's

3402
02:40:55,312 --> 02:40:57,948
talking about, well, well, pat's role and so, yeah, it is

3403
02:40:57,948 --> 02:40:59,490
role and so, yeah, it is certainly not a guarantee that

3404
02:40:59,490 --> 02:41:01,252
certainly not a guarantee that that MISS York would, would get

3405
02:41:01,252 --> 02:41:03,587
that MISS York would, would get anything from metro if we

3406
02:41:03,587 --> 02:41:04,722
anything from metro if we proceeded with the case. Thank

3407
02:41:04,722 --> 02:41:07,425
proceeded with the case. Thank you. Okay. Thank you both. MISS

3408
02:41:07,425 --> 02:41:11,562
You. Okay. Thank you both. MISS Stiles, you're recognized. Thank

3409
02:41:11,562 --> 02:41:14,432
stiles, you're recognized. Thank you very much. Vice mayor. I'd

3410
02:41:14,432 --> 02:41:17,835
you very much. Vice mayor. I'd like to move for one meeting.

3411
02:41:17,835 --> 02:41:20,371
Like to move for one meeting. Deferral on this. I have some

3412
02:41:20,371 --> 02:41:21,605
deferral on this. I have some questions that I would like to

3413
02:41:21,605 --> 02:41:23,808
questions that I would like to ask. I'm not. I'm trying to vote

3414
02:41:23,808 --> 02:41:25,676
ask. I'm not. I'm trying to vote it down, but I don't feel good

3415
02:41:25,676 --> 02:41:27,978
it down, but I don't feel good about voting on this this

3416
02:41:27,978 --> 02:41:30,470
about voting on this this evening. I think a one meeting

3417
02:41:30,470 --> 02:41:31,148
evening. I think a one meeting deferral will give some time.

3418
02:41:31,148 --> 02:41:33,217
Deferral will give some time. I'm sure I'm not the only person

3419
02:41:33,217 --> 02:41:34,385
I'm sure I'm not the only person that has concerns about this. To

3420
02:41:34,385 --> 02:41:36,520
that has concerns about this. To ask some more questions. Okay.

3421
02:41:36,520 --> 02:41:38,856
Ask some more questions. Okay. Are you making that motion? Yes.

3422
02:41:38,856 --> 02:41:42,626
Are you making that motion? Yes. Is there a second? I heard a

3423
02:41:42,626 --> 02:41:44,662
is there a second? I heard a second. Who offered the second?

3424
02:41:44,662 --> 02:41:47,531
Second. Who offered the second? Okay, so there is a motion for

3425
02:41:47,531 --> 02:41:48,599
okay, so there is a motion for one meeting deferral. It is

3426
02:41:48,599 --> 02:41:51,402
one meeting deferral. It is properly seconded. And so now we

3427
02:41:51,402 --> 02:41:52,203
properly seconded. And so now we are on discussion of a one

3428
02:41:52,203 --> 02:41:55,873
are on discussion of a one meeting deferral. Are the folks

3429
02:41:55,873 --> 02:41:58,409
meeting deferral. Are the folks that are in the que wanting to

3430
02:41:58,409 --> 02:42:00,711
that are in the que wanting to speak regarding the deferral?

3431
02:42:00,711 --> 02:42:06,711
Speak regarding the deferral? Okay. All right. So I'll just

3432
02:42:06,884 --> 02:42:08,850
okay. All right. So I'll just proceed in the usual order. MISS

3433
02:42:08,850 --> 02:42:10,187
Proceed in the usual order. MISS Suara, on the one meeting

3434
02:42:10,187 --> 02:42:12,560
suara, on the one meeting deferral, please, ma'am. Thank

3435
02:42:12,560 --> 02:42:14,892
deferral, please, ma'am. Thank you, vice mayor. I'm going to

3436
02:42:14,892 --> 02:42:16,260
you, vice mayor. I'm going to speak against the one meeting

3437
02:42:16,260 --> 02:42:18,596
speak against the one meeting deferral. We had a lot of

3438
02:42:18,596 --> 02:42:19,597
deferral. We had a lot of conversation yesterday, and this

3439
02:42:19,597 --> 02:42:21,532
conversation yesterday, and this is a different case. I think

3440
02:42:21,532 --> 02:42:25,636
is a different case. I think that one we as custodian of

3441
02:42:25,636 --> 02:42:26,637
that one we as custodian of taxpayer money, we cannot

3442
02:42:26,637 --> 02:42:28,506
taxpayer money, we cannot arbitrarily ask for more money.

3443
02:42:28,506 --> 02:42:31,408
Arbitrarily ask for more money. Number two, the people came to

3444
02:42:31,408 --> 02:42:32,576
number two, the people came to sit down and agree to this

3445
02:42:32,576 --> 02:42:34,512
sit down and agree to this amount. Number three, there's

3446
02:42:34,512 --> 02:42:35,546
amount. Number three, there's another part of the settlement

3447
02:42:35,546 --> 02:42:38,282
another part of the settlement that is in addition to this. So

3448
02:42:38,282 --> 02:42:39,650
that is in addition to this. So with all of that, I think all

3449
02:42:39,650 --> 02:42:40,784
with all of that, I think all the conditions to be able to

3450
02:42:40,784 --> 02:42:42,553
the conditions to be able to everybody is agreed to it. And

3451
02:42:42,553 --> 02:42:45,856
everybody is agreed to it. And there's more I'm sorry for the

3452
02:42:45,856 --> 02:42:46,991
there's more I'm sorry for the daughter that died. I wanted

3453
02:42:46,991 --> 02:42:49,560
daughter that died. I wanted more to initially, but after all

3454
02:42:49,560 --> 02:42:51,996
more to initially, but after all the conversation, knowing that

3455
02:42:51,996 --> 02:42:53,230
the conversation, knowing that it was done with the attorneys

3456
02:42:53,230 --> 02:42:54,999
it was done with the attorneys and everybody came to, I don't

3457
02:42:54,999 --> 02:42:56,233
and everybody came to, I don't think there's any point in

3458
02:42:56,233 --> 02:42:57,434
think there's any point in delaying it for the family. And

3459
02:42:57,434 --> 02:42:59,570
delaying it for the family. And so I don't think a one meeting

3460
02:42:59,570 --> 02:43:01,805
so I don't think a one meeting deferral is necessary. Thank

3461
02:43:01,805 --> 02:43:03,730
deferral is necessary. Thank you. Thank you, MISS Suara. MR.

3462
02:43:03,730 --> 02:43:04,875
You. Thank you, MISS Suara. MR. T, on the one meeting deferral.

3463
02:43:04,875 --> 02:43:06,610
T, on the one meeting deferral. Okay. Go ahead sir. Yes. Thank

3464
02:43:06,610 --> 02:43:07,745
okay. Go ahead sir. Yes. Thank you, MADAM Vice mayor. I just

3465
02:43:07,745 --> 02:43:10,114
you, MADAM Vice mayor. I just have a bit of a parliamentary

3466
02:43:10,114 --> 02:43:10,648
have a bit of a parliamentary parliamentary inquiry with

3467
02:43:10,648 --> 02:43:12,249
parliamentary inquiry with regard to the one meeting

3468
02:43:12,249 --> 02:43:14,952
regard to the one meeting deferral as to whether or not

3469
02:43:14,952 --> 02:43:16,860
deferral as to whether or not within the period of the one

3470
02:43:16,860 --> 02:43:17,922
within the period of the one meeting deferral, it is within

3471
02:43:17,922 --> 02:43:20,858
meeting deferral, it is within the parameters of our rules and

3472
02:43:20,858 --> 02:43:21,959
the parameters of our rules and procedures for council members

3473
02:43:21,959 --> 02:43:23,894
procedures for council members to then potentially file

3474
02:43:23,894 --> 02:43:28,132
to then potentially file amendments to amend the amount

3475
02:43:28,132 --> 02:43:31,680
amendments to amend the amount of this of the settlement within

3476
02:43:31,680 --> 02:43:34,638
of this of the settlement within this resolution. Okay. Special

3477
02:43:34,638 --> 02:43:37,207
this resolution. Okay. Special counsel darby, do we need to

3478
02:43:37,207 --> 02:43:39,410
counsel darby, do we need to restate MR. Property's question

3479
02:43:39,410 --> 02:43:41,178
restate MR. Property's question or. You got it. Okay. Go ahead,

3480
02:43:41,178 --> 02:43:44,815
or. You got it. Okay. Go ahead, ma'am, when there is a deferral,

3481
02:43:44,815 --> 02:43:47,351
ma'am, when there is a deferral, there is essentially a new

3482
02:43:47,351 --> 02:43:48,385
there is essentially a new amendments deadline. However, I

3483
02:43:48,385 --> 02:43:51,155
amendments deadline. However, I think it was just explained to

3484
02:43:51,155 --> 02:43:53,424
think it was just explained to you by counsel for metro legal

3485
02:43:53,424 --> 02:43:57,461
you by counsel for metro legal that the vote here is an up or

3486
02:43:57,461 --> 02:43:59,530
that the vote here is an up or down vote. There is no amendment

3487
02:43:59,530 --> 02:44:00,764
down vote. There is no amendment of the amount that the director

3488
02:44:00,764 --> 02:44:03,801
of the amount that the director of law has the ability to direct

3489
02:44:03,801 --> 02:44:05,769
of law has the ability to direct all legislation, all litigation.

3490
02:44:05,769 --> 02:44:06,971
All legislation, all litigation. Sorry. And they are proposing

3491
02:44:06,971 --> 02:44:08,706
sorry. And they are proposing this particular settlement

3492
02:44:08,706 --> 02:44:14,106
this particular settlement number following up on on that

3493
02:44:14,678 --> 02:44:15,679
number following up on on that answer with a secondary

3494
02:44:15,679 --> 02:44:17,581
answer with a secondary parliamentary inquiry is would

3495
02:44:17,581 --> 02:44:21,885
parliamentary inquiry is would an amendment of the of the

3496
02:44:21,885 --> 02:44:23,787
an amendment of the of the settlement amount, be it would

3497
02:44:23,787 --> 02:44:25,689
settlement amount, be it would be able to be done through a

3498
02:44:25,689 --> 02:44:26,924
be able to be done through a non-binding resolution by

3499
02:44:26,924 --> 02:44:27,992
non-binding resolution by amending this resolution to then

3500
02:44:27,992 --> 02:44:29,526
amending this resolution to then be a non-binding resolution?

3501
02:44:29,526 --> 02:44:32,863
be a non-binding resolution? Special counsel darby. No, it

3502
02:44:32,863 --> 02:44:36,000
special counsel darby. No, it wouldn't be if you made it and

3503
02:44:36,000 --> 02:44:38,369
wouldn't be if you made it and if you turned it into a

3504
02:44:38,369 --> 02:44:39,370
if you turned it into a non-binding resolution, then it

3505
02:44:39,370 --> 02:44:40,371
non-binding resolution, then it would not give the legal

3506
02:44:40,371 --> 02:44:41,338
would not give the legal department the authority to

3507
02:44:41,338 --> 02:44:43,140
department the authority to actually settle. If you wanted

3508
02:44:43,140 --> 02:44:45,576
actually settle. If you wanted to do a separate, non-binding

3509
02:44:45,576 --> 02:44:48,545
to do a separate, non-binding resolution, then there is time

3510
02:44:48,545 --> 02:44:49,780
resolution, then there is time to file a separate resolution

3511
02:44:49,780 --> 02:44:52,816
to file a separate resolution for the next meeting. Okay. And

3512
02:44:52,816 --> 02:44:53,951
for the next meeting. Okay. And then, MADAM Vice mayor, I also

3513
02:44:53,951 --> 02:44:57,755
then, MADAM Vice mayor, I also have a two part point of

3514
02:44:57,755 --> 02:45:02,159
have a two part point of information or inquiry as to if

3515
02:45:02,159 --> 02:45:04,828
information or inquiry as to if it's even able to be disclosed,

3516
02:45:04,828 --> 02:45:08,650
it's even able to be disclosed, how the specific valuation of

3517
02:45:08,650 --> 02:45:09,166
how the specific valuation of this settlement was brought

3518
02:45:09,166 --> 02:45:10,234
this settlement was brought about, and whether or not there

3519
02:45:10,234 --> 02:45:15,673
about, and whether or not there are other non-monetary. Parts of

3520
02:45:15,673 --> 02:45:18,275
are other non-monetary. Parts of this settlement specifically,

3521
02:45:18,275 --> 02:45:20,277
this settlement specifically, are there any policy changes

3522
02:45:20,277 --> 02:45:23,147
are there any policy changes associated with the sheriff's

3523
02:45:23,147 --> 02:45:24,281
associated with the sheriff's department or anything like that

3524
02:45:24,281 --> 02:45:26,250
department or anything like that that is able to be disclosed to

3525
02:45:26,250 --> 02:45:28,180
that is able to be disclosed to the body? Okay, I'm thinking

3526
02:45:28,180 --> 02:45:30,187
the body? Okay, I'm thinking maybe we've moved outside of the

3527
02:45:30,187 --> 02:45:31,188
maybe we've moved outside of the realm of a parliamentary

3528
02:45:31,188 --> 02:45:32,222
realm of a parliamentary inquiry, and that is perhaps a

3529
02:45:32,222 --> 02:45:33,624
inquiry, and that is perhaps a question to be directed to the

3530
02:45:33,624 --> 02:45:35,250
question to be directed to the legal department, or did you

3531
02:45:35,250 --> 02:45:36,960
legal department, or did you want it to be directed? MISS

3532
02:45:36,960 --> 02:45:40,597
Want it to be directed? MISS Darby, we can direct that to the

3533
02:45:40,597 --> 02:45:41,165
darby, we can direct that to the legal department. Whichever

3534
02:45:41,165 --> 02:45:42,833
legal department. Whichever entity the chair decides is the

3535
02:45:42,833 --> 02:45:44,568
entity the chair decides is the most appropriate to answer that.

3536
02:45:44,568 --> 02:45:46,970
Most appropriate to answer that. Okay, I'm going to go to MISS

3537
02:45:46,970 --> 02:45:51,408
Okay, I'm going to go to MISS Bussell. You're recognized. I

3538
02:45:51,408 --> 02:45:54,278
bussell. You're recognized. I really can't speak to how the

3539
02:45:54,278 --> 02:45:56,880
really can't speak to how the particular negotiations played

3540
02:45:56,880 --> 02:45:59,450
particular negotiations played out. I mean, that that I know

3541
02:45:59,450 --> 02:46:00,617
out. I mean, that that I know you're an attorney and you

3542
02:46:00,617 --> 02:46:02,319
you're an attorney and you certainly understand that a lot

3543
02:46:02,319 --> 02:46:04,254
certainly understand that a lot of what we do really should kind

3544
02:46:04,254 --> 02:46:05,389
of what we do really should kind of out of respect for the

3545
02:46:05,389 --> 02:46:06,390
of out of respect for the process, be maintained,

3546
02:46:06,390 --> 02:46:08,859
process, be maintained, confidential. So because there

3547
02:46:08,859 --> 02:46:12,129
confidential. So because there were multiple parties at the

3548
02:46:12,129 --> 02:46:14,431
were multiple parties at the table, there was there was a lot

3549
02:46:14,431 --> 02:46:16,834
table, there was there was a lot of numbers that got floated

3550
02:46:16,834 --> 02:46:18,100
of numbers that got floated around. This is not a typical

3551
02:46:18,100 --> 02:46:20,104
around. This is not a typical settlement. Say for example,

3552
02:46:20,104 --> 02:46:23,140
settlement. Say for example, MISS Roberts I think is a great

3553
02:46:23,140 --> 02:46:26,210
MISS Roberts I think is a great example of how that might look

3554
02:46:26,210 --> 02:46:27,244
example of how that might look different because you have

3555
02:46:27,244 --> 02:46:28,912
different because you have things like wages, you have, you

3556
02:46:28,912 --> 02:46:32,150
things like wages, you have, you know, attorney's fees at issue

3557
02:46:32,150 --> 02:46:35,385
know, attorney's fees at issue this york lawsuit is just a pure

3558
02:46:35,385 --> 02:46:37,354
this york lawsuit is just a pure negligence lawsuit. It's a

3559
02:46:37,354 --> 02:46:39,990
negligence lawsuit. It's a governmental tort liability act

3560
02:46:39,990 --> 02:46:41,158
governmental tort liability act case that was filed in state

3561
02:46:41,158 --> 02:46:42,259
case that was filed in state court. So there are no

3562
02:46:42,259 --> 02:46:43,961
court. So there are no attorney's fees. There's not an

3563
02:46:43,961 --> 02:46:45,829
attorney's fees. There's not an attorney's fees provision. But

3564
02:46:45,829 --> 02:46:47,731
attorney's fees provision. But the practical reality is that a

3565
02:46:47,731 --> 02:46:49,800
the practical reality is that a woman lost her life. So if metro

3566
02:46:49,800 --> 02:46:52,503
woman lost her life. So if metro were to be found liable, I think

3567
02:46:52,503 --> 02:46:54,638
were to be found liable, I think it is quite likely that in the

3568
02:46:54,638 --> 02:46:56,607
it is quite likely that in the event of liability, the cap

3569
02:46:56,607 --> 02:46:59,476
event of liability, the cap would be hit. Now the cap is

3570
02:46:59,476 --> 02:47:02,746
would be hit. Now the cap is $300,000. So in the grand scheme

3571
02:47:02,746 --> 02:47:04,715
$300,000. So in the grand scheme I do think that also provides a

3572
02:47:04,715 --> 02:47:05,983
I do think that also provides a little bit of context for the

3573
02:47:05,983 --> 02:47:07,951
little bit of context for the number that we ended up settling

3574
02:47:07,951 --> 02:47:09,253
number that we ended up settling on for the metro portion, metro

3575
02:47:09,253 --> 02:47:11,655
on for the metro portion, metro could never be on the hook for a

3576
02:47:11,655 --> 02:47:12,756
could never be on the hook for a million dollars. In this case,

3577
02:47:12,756 --> 02:47:15,692
million dollars. In this case, they couldn't be on the hook for

3578
02:47:15,692 --> 02:47:16,693
they couldn't be on the hook for $500,000. 300,000 was always

3579
02:47:16,693 --> 02:47:21,131
$500,000. 300,000 was always going to be the cap. So I can't

3580
02:47:21,131 --> 02:47:25,402
going to be the cap. So I can't really I can't really break down

3581
02:47:25,402 --> 02:47:27,237
really I can't really break down the 125. I mean, the simple

3582
02:47:27,237 --> 02:47:28,305
the 125. I mean, the simple answer to your question is

3583
02:47:28,305 --> 02:47:29,540
answer to your question is that's what we agreed to, and

3584
02:47:29,540 --> 02:47:30,941
that's what we agreed to, and that's what MISS York was

3585
02:47:30,941 --> 02:47:33,443
that's what MISS York was willing to accept from metro.

3586
02:47:33,443 --> 02:47:34,578
Willing to accept from metro. Again, all with the caveat that

3587
02:47:34,578 --> 02:47:39,490
again, all with the caveat that this was a much more global

3588
02:47:39,490 --> 02:47:40,500
this was a much more global resolution that involved amounts

3589
02:47:40,500 --> 02:47:43,720
resolution that involved amounts above that. Okay. MR. So we're

3590
02:47:43,720 --> 02:47:44,955
above that. Okay. MR. So we're on the one meeting deferral. I

3591
02:47:44,955 --> 02:47:49,493
on the one meeting deferral. I know you're seeking

3592
02:47:49,493 --> 02:47:50,594
know you're seeking clarification as to what could

3593
02:47:50,594 --> 02:47:51,662
clarification as to what could happen within that time frame.

3594
02:47:51,662 --> 02:47:54,965
Happen within that time frame. So final, are there any go ahead

3595
02:47:54,965 --> 02:47:57,734
so final, are there any go ahead sir, any non-monetary portions

3596
02:47:57,734 --> 02:47:58,869
sir, any non-monetary portions of this settlement, for example,

3597
02:47:58,869 --> 02:48:01,738
of this settlement, for example, policy change within dcso or

3598
02:48:01,738 --> 02:48:03,473
policy change within dcso or anything of that of that nature?

3599
02:48:03,473 --> 02:48:05,709
Anything of that of that nature? MISS Bussell, were there any

3600
02:48:05,709 --> 02:48:08,846
MISS Bussell, were there any related policy commitments

3601
02:48:08,846 --> 02:48:11,782
related policy commitments related to the settlement? No,

3602
02:48:11,782 --> 02:48:13,650
related to the settlement? No, the settlement was a was a pure

3603
02:48:13,650 --> 02:48:15,919
the settlement was a was a pure monetary settlement. Is that

3604
02:48:15,919 --> 02:48:17,200
monetary settlement. Is that everything, MR. Property? Thank

3605
02:48:17,200 --> 02:48:18,989
everything, MR. Property? Thank you, MADAM Vice mayor. No

3606
02:48:18,989 --> 02:48:21,258
you, MADAM Vice mayor. No worries. Okay, MR. Parker, you

3607
02:48:21,258 --> 02:48:22,960
worries. Okay, MR. Parker, you are recognized, sir, on the

3608
02:48:22,960 --> 02:48:24,161
are recognized, sir, on the motion to defer one meeting.

3609
02:48:24,161 --> 02:48:26,663
Motion to defer one meeting. Thank you, vice mayor. So I'm

3610
02:48:26,663 --> 02:48:29,433
thank you, vice mayor. So I'm rising in opposition to the one

3611
02:48:29,433 --> 02:48:31,735
rising in opposition to the one meeting deferral. I don't think

3612
02:48:31,735 --> 02:48:33,503
meeting deferral. I don't think there's an ability of this body

3613
02:48:33,503 --> 02:48:35,973
there's an ability of this body to modify this. We've had some

3614
02:48:35,973 --> 02:48:38,275
to modify this. We've had some extensive discussion about how

3615
02:48:38,275 --> 02:48:40,143
extensive discussion about how we can't do it by amendment,

3616

03:13:23,926 --> 03:13:24,993

03:13:24,993 --> 03:13:27,129
Amendment, which let's it is. Yeah I'm good. Okay then this

4298
03:13:27,129 --> 03:13:28,230
yeah I'm good. Okay then this amendment is your amendment.

4299
03:13:28,230 --> 03:13:29,932
Amendment is your amendment. Thank you I appreciate that this

4300
03:13:29,932 --> 03:13:30,999
thank you I appreciate that this amendment takes a reference to

4301
03:13:30,999 --> 03:13:33,736
amendment takes a reference to state law out of the provision

4302
03:13:33,736 --> 03:13:35,671
state law out of the provision that deals with change of

4303
03:13:35,671 --> 03:13:36,672
that deals with change of ownership. There was just

4304
03:13:36,672 --> 03:13:38,374
ownership. There was just concern that there were some

4305
03:13:38,374 --> 03:13:39,341
concern that there were some interesting intricacies dealing

4306
03:13:39,341 --> 03:13:42,100
interesting intricacies dealing with residency that might

4307
03:13:42,100 --> 03:13:46,115
with residency that might complicate that. And it is

4308
03:13:46,115 --> 03:13:47,316
complicate that. And it is better to pull that piece out.

4309
03:13:47,316 --> 03:13:49,385
Better to pull that piece out. So that's all this does. And so

4310
03:13:49,385 --> 03:13:50,586
so that's all this does. And so with that, I would move for

4311
03:13:50,586 --> 03:13:52,200
with that, I would move for approval of that amendment.

4312
03:13:52,200 --> 03:13:54,390
Approval of that amendment. Okay. There's a motion to amend

4313
03:13:54,390 --> 03:13:57,226
okay. There's a motion to amend with amendment one by MISS Allen

4333
03:14:41,904 --> 03:14:43,605
For an explanation. Thank you. Vice mayor. This makes some

4334
03:14:43,605 --> 03:14:44,773
vice mayor. This makes some small tweaks to the different

4335
03:14:44,773 --> 03:14:46,575
small tweaks to the different categories of documentation that

4336
03:14:46,575 --> 03:14:49,378
categories of documentation that can be provided in support of a

4337
03:14:49,378 --> 03:14:50,379
can be provided in support of a short term rental permit,

4338
03:14:50,379 --> 03:14:52,347
short term rental permit, specifically, most notably by

4339
03:14:52,347 --> 03:14:53,348
specifically, most notably by separating the different types

4340
03:14:53,348 --> 03:14:54,820
separating the different types of insurance, different

4341
03:14:54,820 --> 03:14:55,830
of insurance, different categories. So you could

4342
03:14:55,830 --> 03:14:57,286
categories. So you could provide, for example, automobile

4343
03:14:57,286 --> 03:14:58,353
provide, for example, automobile insurance and life insurance as

4344
03:14:58,353 --> 03:15:00,389
insurance and life insurance as different categories of proof. I

4345
03:15:00,389 --> 03:15:01,423
different categories of proof. I understand it's a friendly

4346
03:15:01,423 --> 03:15:03,425
understand it's a friendly amendment by the sponsor, and so

4347
03:15:03,425 --> 03:15:05,994
amendment by the sponsor, and so as long as she's not against it

4348
03:15:05,994 --> 03:15:07,830
as long as she's not against it and it's not destructive of the

4349
03:15:07,830 --> 03:15:09,198
and it's not destructive of the policy, I'd like to move for

4350
03:15:09,198 --> 03:15:11,166
policy, I'd like to move for approval. Okay, I see a thumbs

03:15:11,166 --> 03:15:13,602

4352
03:15:13,602 --> 03:15:14,736
up from MISS Allen. Is there a second on the motion to amend

4353
03:15:14,736 --> 03:15:16,171

03:15:23,612 --> 03:15:25,981
okay. Seeing none. All in favor, please say aye. Any voting no or

4359
03:15:25,981 --> 03:15:28,917
please say aye. Any voting no or abstaining okay. That amendment

4360
03:15:28,917 --> 03:15:30,180
abstaining okay. That amendment has also been adopted. So now

4361
03:15:30,180 --> 03:15:31,987

4362
03:15:31,987 --> 03:15:33,288
it's back to you, MISS Allen, for a combined motion of

03:15:34,957 --> 03:15:36,458
Approval with your amendments. Thank you, MADAM Chair. I would

4365
03:15:36,458 --> 03:15:38,600
thank you, MADAM Chair. I would like to move for approval, as

4366
03:15:38,600 --> 03:15:39,261
like to move for approval, as amended and amended with a brief

4367
03:15:39,261 --> 03:15:41,263
amended and amended with a brief explanation. Okay. Is there a

4368
03:15:41,263 --> 03:15:42,564
explanation. Okay. Is there a second for the motion to approve

4369
03:15:42,564 --> 03:15:45,267
second for the motion to approve as amended? Right. Okay. Go

4370
03:15:45,267 --> 03:15:48,203
as amended? Right. Okay. Go ahead. Thank you. Just want to

4371
03:15:48,203 --> 03:15:49,972
ahead. Thank you. Just want to say again all this bill does is

4372
03:15:49,972 --> 03:15:51,240
say again all this bill does is tighten up the requirements for

4373
03:15:51,240 --> 03:15:53,308
tighten up the requirements for proving ownership because that's

4374
03:15:53,308 --> 03:15:55,944
proving ownership because that's been an issue that the strip

4375
03:15:55,944 --> 03:15:58,914
been an issue that the strip repeal board has, has dealt with

4376
03:15:58,914 --> 03:15:59,882
repeal board has, has dealt with is fraudulently obtained owner

4377
03:15:59,882 --> 03:16:02,500
is fraudulently obtained owner occupied permits. So we are

4378
03:16:02,500 --> 03:16:03,218
occupied permits. So we are hopeful that this will just make

4379
03:16:03,218 --> 03:16:06,540
hopeful that this will just make it harder to do anything

4380
03:16:06,540 --> 03:16:07,189
it harder to do anything dishonest in terms of getting

4381
03:16:07,189 --> 03:16:09,491
dishonest in terms of getting those types of permits. I do

4382
03:16:09,491 --> 03:16:10,526
those types of permits. I do appreciate the comments that

4383
03:16:10,526 --> 03:16:11,493
appreciate the comments that were made by MISS Williams. I

4384
03:16:11,493 --> 03:16:13,228
were made by MISS Williams. I did discuss those with legal

4385
03:16:13,228 --> 03:16:15,631
did discuss those with legal team as well as other members of

4386
03:16:15,631 --> 03:16:17,399
team as well as other members of the short term appeal board, and

4387
03:16:17,399 --> 03:16:20,235
the short term appeal board, and it was determined that these

4388
03:16:20,235 --> 03:16:21,236
it was determined that these amendments are appropriate for

4389
03:16:21,236 --> 03:16:22,304
amendments are appropriate for the discussions that we've had

4390
03:16:22,304 --> 03:16:24,172
the discussions that we've had right now. And maybe in another

4391
03:16:24,172 --> 03:16:25,941
right now. And maybe in another year or two, we can take those

4392
03:16:25,941 --> 03:16:27,943
year or two, we can take those up. So input is always good. So

4393
03:16:27,943 --> 03:16:29,177
up. So input is always good. So with that, I renew my motion for

4394
03:16:29,177 --> 03:16:30,879
with that, I renew my motion for approval. Okay. Is there any

4719
03:29:28,890 --> 03:29:30,658
like to provide a brief explanation, MISS Gad, of what

4720
03:29:30,658 --> 03:29:31,826

4722
03:29:34,429 --> 03:29:37,980
amendment provides a few updates or conditions and improvements,

4723
03:29:37,980 --> 03:29:38,933
or conditions and improvements, and I will go through a couple

4724
03:29:38,933 --> 03:29:40,668
and I will go through a couple of those here. But then in

4725
03:29:40,668 --> 03:29:42,804
of those here. But then in broader discuss the bill. This

4726
03:29:42,804 --> 03:29:46,107
broader discuss the bill. This will provide some additional

4727
03:29:46,107 --> 03:29:48,810
will provide some additional screening on the parking garage.

4728
03:29:48,810 --> 03:29:51,713
Screening on the parking garage. So addressing the eastern facade

4729
03:29:51,713 --> 03:29:54,682
so addressing the eastern facade elevations that have been

4730
03:29:54,682 --> 03:29:56,417
elevations that have been discussed by neighbors in order

4731
03:29:56,417 --> 03:29:59,654
discussed by neighbors in order to lower those, we'll also

4732
03:29:59,654 --> 03:30:02,223
to lower those, we'll also provide additional design

4733
03:30:02,223 --> 03:30:05,526
provide additional design standards that were agreed upon.

4734
03:30:05,526 --> 03:30:08,796
Standards that were agreed upon. This will also relocate the dog

4735
03:30:08,796 --> 03:30:09,964
this will also relocate the dog run from being next to the

4736
03:30:09,964 --> 03:30:14,602
run from being next to the greenway adds additional

4737
03:30:14,602 --> 03:30:17,305
greenway adds additional markings for the music city

4738
03:30:17,305 --> 03:30:20,174
markings for the music city bikeway and also provides an

4739
03:30:20,174 --> 03:30:23,311

4773
03:31:32,980 --> 03:31:35,483
Discussion concludes. Okay. Happy to do that. MR. Truffle,

4774
03:31:35,483 --> 03:31:37,452
happy to do that. MR. Truffle, you are next in the que, sir.

4775
03:31:37,452 --> 03:31:38,820
You are next in the que, sir. Go ahead. Yeah. Thank you.

4776
03:31:38,820 --> 03:31:40,621
Go ahead. Yeah. Thank you. Thanks. Vice mayor. And with

4777
03:31:40,621 --> 03:31:43,324
thanks. Vice mayor. And with respect to council, gad, this

4778
03:31:43,324 --> 03:31:46,327
respect to council, gad, this intersection is close to what

4779
03:31:46,327 --> 03:31:48,950
intersection is close to what white bridge and harding is.

4780
03:31:48,950 --> 03:31:49,630
White bridge and harding is. It's a failed intersection on a

4781
03:31:49,630 --> 03:31:53,401
it's a failed intersection on a failed road with more than 1000

4782
03:31:53,401 --> 03:31:55,136
failed road with more than 1000 units that were going to

4783
03:31:55,136 --> 03:31:57,472
units that were going to compound the problem in this

4784
03:31:57,472 --> 03:31:58,639
compound the problem in this immediate area. If you rember,

4785
03:31:58,639 --> 03:32:00,341
immediate area. If you rember, belle mead plaza last year long

4786
03:32:00,341 --> 03:32:02,710
belle mead plaza last year long discussion, but the reality is

4787
03:32:02,710 --> 03:32:05,580
discussion, but the reality is it's getting worse and worse. So

4788
03:32:05,580 --> 03:32:07,682
it's getting worse and worse. So I have a concern not so much for

4789
03:32:07,682 --> 03:32:08,816
I have a concern not so much for the development, but the transit

4790
03:32:08,816 --> 03:32:11,552
the development, but the transit plan or the traffic plan that is

4791
03:32:11,552 --> 03:32:12,687
plan or the traffic plan that is described. There's supposed to

4792
03:32:12,687 --> 03:32:14,689
described. There's supposed to be a regional transit traffic

4793
03:32:14,689 --> 03:32:17,225
be a regional transit traffic plan that has never come to

4794
03:32:17,225 --> 03:32:19,600
plan that has never come to fruition from mndot,

4795
03:32:19,600 --> 03:32:20,270
fruition from mndot, contributing contributions from

4796
03:32:20,270 --> 03:32:22,296
contributing contributions from all the different developers.

4797
03:32:22,296 --> 03:32:24,866
All the different developers. And until we get that, I think

4798
03:32:24,866 --> 03:32:25,833
and until we get that, I think continued to compound the

4799
03:32:25,833 --> 03:32:28,269
continued to compound the problem, when you can't get

4800
03:32:28,269 --> 03:32:29,270
problem, when you can't get through this intersection any

4801
03:32:29,270 --> 03:32:31,138
through this intersection any longer, is something we urgently

4802
03:32:31,138 --> 03:32:34,342
longer, is something we urgently need. So I'll be voting no. And

4803
03:32:34,342 --> 03:32:36,277
need. So I'll be voting no. And I think we have to send a

4804
03:32:36,277 --> 03:32:37,512
I think we have to send a message back at some point when

4805
03:32:37,512 --> 03:32:38,646
message back at some point when you have failed intersections

4806
03:32:38,646 --> 03:32:40,470
you have failed intersections and failed roads and you had

4807
03:32:40,470 --> 03:32:42,283
and failed roads and you had 1000 units, there's a time and

4808
03:32:42,283 --> 03:32:43,484
1000 units, there's a time and place where you just can't get

4809
03:32:43,484 --> 03:32:45,119
place where you just can't get through. And we need we need

4810
03:32:45,119 --> 03:32:46,254
through. And we need we need solutions now. So I'll vote no,

4811
03:32:46,254 --> 03:32:48,756
solutions now. So I'll vote no, thank you. Okay. Thank you, MR.

4812
03:32:48,756 --> 03:32:50,725
Thank you. Okay. Thank you, MR. Truffle. Transportation and

4813
03:32:50,725 --> 03:32:53,600
truffle. Transportation and infrastructure chair. Parker,

4814
03:32:53,600 --> 03:32:56,898
infrastructure chair. Parker, you are recognized. Thank you,

4815
03:32:56,898 --> 03:32:59,330
you are recognized. Thank you, vice mayor. I'm rising in

4816
03:32:59,330 --> 03:33:01,636
vice mayor. I'm rising in support of this project. And

4817
03:33:01,636 --> 03:33:02,670
support of this project. And specifically the work that the

4818
03:33:02,670 --> 03:33:04,939
specifically the work that the district council members done to

4819
03:33:04,939 --> 03:33:06,140
district council members done to address as many of the concerns

4820
03:33:06,140 --> 03:33:09,210
address as many of the concerns of the neighbors, as I think I

4821
03:33:09,210 --> 03:33:10,311
of the neighbors, as I think I think could be accomplished

4822
03:33:10,311 --> 03:33:12,446
think could be accomplished within an sp. I was reading

4823
03:33:12,446 --> 03:33:14,382
within an sp. I was reading through the amendment and lots

4824
03:33:14,382 --> 03:33:16,350
through the amendment and lots of lots of good stuff in there

4825
03:33:16,350 --> 03:33:18,486
of lots of good stuff in there to address concerns. As much as

4826
03:33:18,486 --> 03:33:19,820
to address concerns. As much as I am a huge fan of flea markets,

4827
03:33:19,820 --> 03:33:20,888
I am a huge fan of flea markets, I'm sad to see those prohibited,

4828
03:33:20,888 --> 03:33:23,457
I'm sad to see those prohibited, but I don't anticipate that

4829
03:33:23,457 --> 03:33:25,726
but I don't anticipate that there ever would have been a

4830
03:33:25,726 --> 03:33:26,861
there ever would have been a flea market at this site to

4831
03:33:26,861 --> 03:33:28,930
flea market at this site to begin with. So just appreciate

4832
03:33:28,930 --> 03:33:29,931
begin with. So just appreciate the district members work on

4833
03:33:29,931 --> 03:33:32,633
the district members work on this and it looks like a great

4834
03:33:32,633 --> 03:33:33,734
this and it looks like a great project, so I'm happy to

4835
03:33:33,734 --> 03:33:34,902
project, so I'm happy to support. Thank you MR. Parker.

4836
03:33:34,902 --> 03:33:35,870
Support. Thank you MR. Parker. MR. Horton, you're recognized

4837
03:33:35,870 --> 03:33:39,240
MR. Horton, you're recognized sir. Thank you, vice mayor. This

4838
03:33:39,240 --> 03:33:40,942
sir. Thank you, vice mayor. This project is located in district

4839
03:33:40,942 --> 03:33:42,510
project is located in district 24, but it's right across the

4840
03:33:42,510 --> 03:33:44,345
24, but it's right across the street from us in district 20.

4841
03:33:44,345 --> 03:33:44,845
Street from us in district 20. So it's relevant for our

4842
03:33:44,845 --> 03:33:46,581
so it's relevant for our district as well. And this is a

4843
03:33:46,581 --> 03:33:48,149
district as well. And this is a good project. It's one that's

4844
03:33:48,149 --> 03:33:49,183
good project. It's one that's been made better by the

4845
03:33:49,183 --> 03:33:50,840
been made better by the leadership of the district

4846
03:33:50,840 --> 03:33:51,819
leadership of the district council member to the concerns

4847
03:33:51,819 --> 03:33:53,120
council member to the concerns on traffic. That's there. I'm no

4848
03:33:53,120 --> 03:33:54,989
on traffic. That's there. I'm no stranger to the traffic on white

4849
03:33:54,989 --> 03:33:57,240
stranger to the traffic on white bridge. It's, you know, in my

4850
03:33:57,240 --> 03:33:58,192
bridge. It's, you know, in my district, my wife and I do our

4851
03:33:58,192 --> 03:33:59,327
district, my wife and I do our grocery shopping at this

4852
03:33:59,327 --> 03:34:01,262
grocery shopping at this location all the time. So like

4853
03:34:01,262 --> 03:34:02,530
location all the time. So like many of our other constituents,

4854
03:34:02,530 --> 03:34:04,599
many of our other constituents, the way that we could do make

4855
03:34:04,599 --> 03:34:05,866
the way that we could do make traffic worse in this district

4856
03:34:05,866 --> 03:34:07,802
traffic worse in this district is to do nothing. And if we just

4857
03:34:07,802 --> 03:34:08,703
is to do nothing. And if we just sign another commercial tenant

4858
03:34:08,703 --> 03:34:09,870
sign another commercial tenant in this existing space, that

4859
03:34:09,870 --> 03:34:11,572
in this existing space, that will be much worse traffic than

4860
03:34:11,572 --> 03:34:12,940
will be much worse traffic than if we allow this site to be

4861
03:34:12,940 --> 03:34:14,750
if we allow this site to be redeveloped into residential

4862
03:34:14,750 --> 03:34:15,776
redeveloped into residential uses, which also have the

4863
03:34:15,776 --> 03:34:16,911
uses, which also have the benefit of providing housing for

4864
03:34:16,911 --> 03:34:19,130

03:35:40,961 --> 03:35:43,431

4907
03:35:49,904 --> 03:35:50,471
to say thank you to everyone that came to every community

4908
03:35:50,471 --> 03:35:52,673
that came to every community meeting, to every other small

4909
03:35:52,673 --> 03:35:55,509
meeting, to every other small meeting, or one on one, and who

4910
03:35:55,509 --> 03:35:57,244
meeting, or one on one, and who have emailed and called and I've

4911
03:35:57,244 --> 03:35:59,130
have emailed and called and I've met with on this, it has

4912
03:35:59,130 --> 03:36:00,848
met with on this, it has actually very much improved this

4913
03:36:00,848 --> 03:36:02,616
actually very much improved this project. This is a project that

4914
03:36:02,616 --> 03:36:05,986
project. This is a project that has has come before me. And then

4915
03:36:05,986 --> 03:36:08,956
has has come before me. And then during this term, I found it

4916
03:36:08,956 --> 03:36:11,759
during this term, I found it improved greatly by those who

4917
03:36:11,759 --> 03:36:14,261
improved greatly by those who voiced major concerns of what

4918
03:36:14,261 --> 03:36:15,362
voiced major concerns of what colleagues have also raised.

4919
03:36:15,362 --> 03:36:17,732
Colleagues have also raised. When we talk about traffic

4920
03:36:17,732 --> 03:36:20,267
when we talk about traffic impact, what I loved about this

4921
03:36:20,267 --> 03:36:21,435
impact, what I loved about this project is that it provides

4922
03:36:21,435 --> 03:36:24,472
project is that it provides residential in an area that that

4923
03:36:24,472 --> 03:36:26,373
residential in an area that that actually provides the ability

4924
03:36:26,373 --> 03:36:29,760
actually provides the ability for foot traffic versus car

4925
03:36:29,760 --> 03:36:32,346
for foot traffic versus car traffic. For those who choose

4926
03:36:32,346 --> 03:36:34,215
traffic. For those who choose this to be a residence. And that

4927
03:36:34,215 --> 03:36:35,683
this to be a residence. And that is something that that's quite

4928
03:36:35,683 --> 03:36:37,384
is something that that's quite unique. When we're looking at

4929
03:36:37,384 --> 03:36:39,320
unique. When we're looking at developments in the district and

4930
03:36:39,320 --> 03:36:41,288
developments in the district and that in itself, you know,

4931
03:36:41,288 --> 03:36:45,920
that in itself, you know, reduces the amount of traffic or

4932
03:36:45,920 --> 03:36:47,528
reduces the amount of traffic or the amount of car trips

4933
03:36:47,528 --> 03:36:48,596
the amount of car trips commercial, which is what this

4934
03:36:48,596 --> 03:36:50,698
commercial, which is what this is currently zoned only for,

4935
03:36:50,698 --> 03:36:53,167
is currently zoned only for, does inevitably increase those

4936
03:36:53,167 --> 03:36:56,303
does inevitably increase those traffic footprints. This is a

4937
03:36:56,303 --> 03:36:57,505
traffic footprints. This is a place that also has demonstrated

4938
03:36:57,505 --> 03:37:00,700
place that also has demonstrated that it supports people living

4939
03:37:00,700 --> 03:37:01,750
that it supports people living in this community. And so with

4940
03:37:01,750 --> 03:37:03,978
in this community. And so with that, we have worked with the

4941
03:37:03,978 --> 03:37:06,280
that, we have worked with the development team to probably

4942
03:37:06,280 --> 03:37:07,381
development team to probably create a little less green space

4943
03:37:07,381 --> 03:37:09,483
create a little less green space in the back towards the

4944
03:37:09,483 --> 03:37:10,518
in the back towards the greenway, because the residents

4945
03:37:10,518 --> 03:37:13,120
greenway, because the residents neighboring would like to see

4946
03:37:13,120 --> 03:37:15,556
neighboring would like to see some of the building lowered. So

4947
03:37:15,556 --> 03:37:17,491
some of the building lowered. So we were able to lower that.

4948
03:37:17,491 --> 03:37:18,580
We were able to lower that. We've also gotten private

4949
03:37:18,580 --> 03:37:21,610
we've also gotten private agreements to accommodate the

4950
03:37:21,610 --> 03:37:23,197
agreements to accommodate the lion's head. Hoa homeowners

4951
03:37:23,197 --> 03:37:26,333
lion's head. Hoa homeowners association that aren't included

4952
03:37:26,333 --> 03:37:27,501
association that aren't included in this sp of what the

4953
03:37:27,501 --> 03:37:29,470
in this sp of what the government has authority over,

4954
03:37:29,470 --> 03:37:30,771
government has authority over, but to have additional private

4955
03:37:30,771 --> 03:37:32,273
but to have additional private agreements when it comes to

4956
03:37:32,273 --> 03:37:32,873
agreements when it comes to easements. Other maintenance.

4957
03:37:32,873 --> 03:37:36,210
Easements. Other maintenance. The use and of construction. So

4958
03:37:36,210 --> 03:37:39,113
the use and of construction. So for the construction not to be

4959
03:37:39,113 --> 03:37:43,818
for the construction not to be on post road at all and for

4960
03:37:43,818 --> 03:37:44,318
on post road at all and for additional construction,

4961
03:37:44,318 --> 03:37:47,354
additional construction, building requirements to be off

4962
03:37:47,354 --> 03:37:49,323
building requirements to be off site and additional

4963
03:37:49,323 --> 03:37:52,593
site and additional notifications that that will be

4964
03:37:52,593 --> 03:37:53,661
notifications that that will be built. I've also gotten a

4965
03:37:53,661 --> 03:37:57,898
built. I've also gotten a commitment to have even, even a

4966
03:37:57,898 --> 03:37:58,999
commitment to have even, even a further location from this site,

4967
03:37:58,999 --> 03:38:02,136
further location from this site, which is at nashville state,

4968
03:38:02,136 --> 03:38:03,571
which is at nashville state, that currently doesn't have a

4969
03:38:03,571 --> 03:38:04,705
that currently doesn't have a bus shelter. And so they've

4970
03:38:04,705 --> 03:38:08,420
bus shelter. And so they've agreed to also do a covered bus

4971
03:38:08,420 --> 03:38:10,311
agreed to also do a covered bus shelter there, as well as a

4972
03:38:10,311 --> 03:38:12,213
shelter there, as well as a signalization and optimization.

4973
03:38:12,213 --> 03:38:15,216
Signalization and optimization. So I've been really, really

4974
03:38:15,216 --> 03:38:16,317
so I've been really, really thrilled with the amount of

4975
03:38:16,317 --> 03:38:18,652
thrilled with the amount of comments that have come back

4976
03:38:18,652 --> 03:38:21,288
comments that have come back from the community. It will. I

4977
03:38:21,288 --> 03:38:22,556
from the community. It will. I know it won't make everyone

4978
03:38:22,556 --> 03:38:24,625
know it won't make everyone happy, but I am thrilled to make

4979
03:38:24,625 --> 03:38:25,826
happy, but I am thrilled to make this even better. Because of

4980
03:38:25,826 --> 03:38:26,927
this even better. Because of those comments. And with that,

4981
03:38:26,927 --> 03:38:31,799
