Good morning. I'm Luddie Azar. Or Chevrolet. Detroit Grand Prix

and Pensky corporation and. Thank you so much for recognizing

123
00:31:10,584 --> 00:31:15,285
these young people. What an amazing journey they've had. They

124
00:31:15,330 --> 00:31:18,801
were the last team to enter this global competition. We

125
00:31:18,846 --> 00:31:21,606
weren't sure how it would turn out. Bringing a group

126
00:31:21,651 --> 00:31:24,246
of kids together and finding an instructor last minute, but

127
00:31:24,251 --> 00:31:26,406
we thought it was certainly worth the try and opportunity.

128
00:31:27,589 --> 00:31:30,304
And they continued on to be the only team, this

129
00:31:30,629 --> 00:31:33,064
was the only team representing the United States. Of America

130
00:31:33,589 --> 00:31:36,934
at this portal classification. They beat out all the other

131
00:31:37,259 --> 00:31:40,254
high school teams, all the other collegiate teams, and they

132
00:31:40,299 --> 00:31:45,642
were the number one high school team globally. And they

133
00:31:45,687 --> 00:31:47,642
certainly are deserving of the spirit of Detroit. Thank you

134
00:31:47,647 --> 00:31:51,242
so much for recognizing them. They absolutely exemplify everything we

135
00:31:51,567 --> 00:31:59,302
know our youth can be. Thank you. Good morning. I'm

136
00:31:59,347 --> 00:32:02,902

139
00:32:13,936 --> 00:32:16,961
today. I went with them to Abidabi on the trip,

140
00:32:17,246 --> 00:32:20,001
and they did a phenomenal job. Just seeing them work

141
00:32:20,326 --> 00:32:23,961
as engineers daily, putting in the coding, going back, testing

142
00:32:23,966 --> 00:32:29,458
the coding, and then. Collaborating amongst themselves. Deliberating and figuring

143
00:32:29,543 --> 00:32:35,268
out argumenting for who thinks their code should work. And

144
00:32:35,393 --> 00:32:38,108
different entities, and they did a phenomenal job. We couldn't

145
00:32:38,393 --> 00:32:41,568
be more proud of. Them just want to acknowledge. Jacob.

146
00:32:41,933 --> 00:32:44,208
I know his name. We may have omitted it. Jacob's

147
00:32:44,253 --> 00:32:47,648
name wasn't interested. But Jacob is an 8th grader, rising

148
00:32:47,693 --> 00:32:50,288
9th grader that participated in the program. But you wouldn't

149
00:32:50,293 --> 00:32:52,128
even be able to tell that he was in 8th

150
00:32:52,173 --> 00:32:56,208
grade. Fit right in with the group and contributed immensely.

151
00:32:56,493 --> 00:32:58,968
So thank you again so much for this award. We

152
00:32:59,013 --> 00:33:00,088
greatly appreciate it.

153
00:33:22,451 --> 00:33:28,935
You can't hear. Okay, sorry. Melvin. Jacob m jacob. Congratulations.

154
00:33:31,236 --> 00:33:40,283
Titus. Congratulations. And then Timothy. Here you go. Congratulations, Timothy.

155
00:33:42,467 --> 00:33:44,382
Not sure if my colleagues have any words we would

156
00:33:44,387 --> 00:33:48,262
like to share before we join our awardees. Up front.

157
00:33:49,107 --> 00:33:57,380
If not, member Benson or. To you.

158
00:33:59,240 --> 00:34:01,995
Thank you. And justice, I also want to concur and

159
00:34:02,280 --> 00:34:06,353
share the same congratulations. But I haven't seen the product

160
00:34:06,438 --> 00:34:08,233
or the results. Is it possible to get a video?

161
00:34:08,318 --> 00:34:10,955
Link. That we can actually see what these young people

162
00:34:11,360 --> 00:34:13,955
have done to represent the United States over nava daba.

163
00:34:14,160 --> 00:34:16,995
That will be fantastic to see. And then the next

164
00:34:17,080 --> 00:34:19,715
question was going to be, how do other young people.

165
00:34:20,712 --> 00:34:23,387
Get an opportunity like this in the CV. This is

166
00:34:23,432 --> 00:34:29,103
a fantastic opportunity. Yeah. Please, feel free. Respond. Two excellent

167
00:34:29,868 --> 00:34:33,383
questions. Number one, we do have video footage that we

168
00:34:33,388 --> 00:34:37,651
can definitely make sure that we share. Of the race

169
00:34:37,936 --> 00:34:39,171
and so forth, so that you can see their car

170
00:34:39,536 --> 00:34:43,371
and how it erase and how they qualified. Secondly, we

171
00:34:43,376 --> 00:34:46,891
have numerous programs within boys and girls clubhouse eastern Michigan.

172
00:34:46,936 --> 00:34:49,731
They're called our industry club program. Basically, you would go

173
00:34:50,096 --> 00:34:55,339

174
00:34:55,784 --> 00:34:59,259

175
00:34:59,304 --> 00:35:02,379

00:35:02,424 --> 00:35:07,265

190
00:36:11,519 --> 00:36:14,594

00:36:14,999 --> 00:36:16,834
team from the US to come from the city of

192
00:36:17,119 --> 00:36:22,476
Detroit and not Detroit ish. Not kind of Detroit. Not

193
00:36:22,841 --> 00:36:27,318
almost Detroit. But Detroit. We're very proud of you, young

194
00:36:27,723 --> 00:36:31,384

00:38:19,600 --> 00:38:25,894
Give it up again for these young folks. We talk

197
00:38:25,979 --> 00:38:27,854
all day long about all the kids not doing the

198
00:38:27,859 --> 00:38:29,614
right thing. We see them on tv all the time.

199
00:38:29,859 --> 00:38:31,374
And when we get an opportunity to love on the

200
00:38:31,619 --> 00:38:33,654
ones that are doing what we need them to do.

201
00:38:33,979 --> 00:38:37,054
That's what we need to do. Love on them. Congratulations.

202
00:38:37,459 --> 00:38:40,574
Congratulations. We shall now cut off public comments. A collection

203
00:38:40,619 --> 00:38:45,843
of public comments. All right. And we will now call

204
00:38:45,928 --> 00:38:51,836
for public comment. Public comments again have now been cut

205
00:38:51,921 --> 00:38:55,036
off. We do have a number of cards in hand.

206
00:38:56,820 --> 00:39:05,249
Please. How many? Callers do we have online? Good morning,

207
00:39:05,694 --> 00:39:08,769
Mr. Chair. We have 19 callers who raised their hands

208
00:39:09,094 --> 00:39:11,489
before you cut off public. Comment. Okay, we'll give everyone

209
00:39:11,854 --> 00:39:14,929

00:39:14,974 --> 00:39:19,769
the auditorium with Ms. Williams, followed by Ms. Betty Lions,

211
00:39:20,214 --> 00:39:27,419
followed by. May, may. Barry again. Ms williams. Steady lions

212
00:39:27,784 --> 00:39:31,449
then, may vary. Ms. Williams, want to hit that button?

213
00:39:35,717 --> 00:39:38,983
It's actually at the bottom of them. Good morning, everyone.

214
00:39:40,546 --> 00:39:47,387
This is about all. The city's workers, especially the Detroit

215
00:39:47,672 --> 00:39:51,169
Police Department. Covering up my rights, and this is how

216
00:39:51,494 --> 00:39:55,330
they are all working together. I live in a shelter.

217
00:39:56,675 --> 00:40:00,221
And the garbage truck come every three days. And I

218
00:40:00,706 --> 00:40:07,238
stated this before. They are. Sending people that take pictures

219
00:40:07,563 --> 00:40:10,486
of me or recordings. They call into this number and

220
00:40:10,771 --> 00:40:13,566
get gift cards and everything. So this is the way

221
00:40:14,251 --> 00:40:18,454
they describe. All the information of proof. And undercover off

222
00:40:19,139 --> 00:40:24,174
with officers that are in the shelter working or acting

223
00:40:24,259 --> 00:40:30,205
like they are guests. Illegal cameras. Listening to devices in

224
00:40:30,210 --> 00:40:33,776
my room. I can't even shower in peace because. They

225
00:40:33,781 --> 00:40:37,405
are recording everything I do. In that facility, and I've

226
00:40:37,410 --> 00:40:41,445
been going to Avalan and my advocate every session that

227
00:40:41,770 --> 00:40:44,485
I had was recorded. So I said they are working

228
00:40:44,810 --> 00:40:47,605
with Detroit police officers to conspire to cover up my

229
00:40:48,290 --> 00:40:54,567
rape, so. The detroit dte. Do t all the city

230
00:40:54,972 --> 00:41:00,134
official workers. I have dates and times. And numbers of

231
00:41:00,459 --> 00:41:03,334
their vehicles. This thing going on for quite some time.

232
00:41:04,722 --> 00:41:10,001
And I am very upset concerning the issue about. Them

233
00:41:10,446 --> 00:41:15,502
stalking me. And violating my constitutional rights, laws and regulations

234
00:41:15,907 --> 00:41:19,422
they do not comply to. And like I said, you

235
00:41:19,427 --> 00:41:23,065
have to show three things that they do. That's illegal

236
00:41:23,670 --> 00:41:26,105
and they conspire to cover up all this illegal activities

237
00:41:26,470 --> 00:41:29,625
and that. Could be Rico. Apparently, people do not respect

238
00:41:29,950 --> 00:41:33,425
their job, and I intend on suing every last individual

239
00:41:33,950 --> 00:41:37,545
city official company, if they do that, continue to violate

240
00:41:37,790 --> 00:41:41,105
my constitutional rights, especially Troy police department. Thank you very

241
00:41:41,510 --> 00:41:44,618
much. Have a great day. Thank you, ma'am.

242
00:41:51,619 --> 00:41:55,054
Miss betty lions, followed by may may berry, followed by

243
00:41:55,779 --> 00:42:01,872
ronald foster. My mission. Is for my voice to be

244
00:42:02,517 --> 00:42:07,141
stamped in your brain. To return that overpaid property tax

245
00:42:07,586 --> 00:42:12,381
to the right for owners, the Detroit residents. In my

246
00:42:12,426 --> 00:42:17,325
opinion. Dugan has made all of you to disrespect justice.

247
00:42:18,010 --> 00:42:21,685
You won't. Even acknowledge the Amalek behavior and spirit of

248
00:42:22,010 --> 00:42:25,765
Dugan, who is out of control. Getting away with financial

249
00:42:26,530 --> 00:42:30,932
thievery. Again I ask, how do you sleep? Or engage

250
00:42:31,737 --> 00:42:36,149
with your. Loved ones knowing you are part of a

251
00:42:36,194 --> 00:42:40,629
scheme that is of hell, led by Dugan Dan. Gilbert

252
00:42:40,874 --> 00:42:44,589
and Dana, Nesso and others. Why is it so easy

253
00:42:45,034 --> 00:42:50,309
to enrich beggars? That come before you by thousands, millions

254
00:42:50,354 --> 00:42:53,455
and billions of dollars and say no to. The very

255
00:42:53,900 --> 00:43:00,569
people who elected you who money this belongs to. Has

256
00:43:00,654 --> 00:43:04,009
Dugan put that much fear and evil in your spirit?

257
00:43:05,332 --> 00:43:09,467
Father God and his son. Lord and savior Jesus Christ

258
00:43:10,272 --> 00:43:15,258
is watching you. And you will answer. Also, I encourage

259
00:43:16,063 --> 00:43:21,340
everybody to go to the Jim Crow Museum. At WC

260
00:43:21,785 --> 00:43:24,340
three. All they want to do in this country is

261
00:43:24,985 --> 00:43:28,020
shoved on our throat. The Holocaust. But you look at

262
00:43:28,745 --> 00:43:32,260
what was done to black people, and that was ten

263
00:43:32,665 --> 00:43:37,125
times, 100 times worse. Than what Hitler did. It is

264
00:43:37,210 --> 00:43:41,365
unreasonable. They took everything away from us and has not

265
00:43:41,690 --> 00:43:46,482
paid us for that. So everything. That we belong. That

266
00:43:46,527 --> 00:43:50,882
belong to us has been denied us while giving money

267
00:43:51,687 --> 00:43:55,762
to people who have not done anything. For this country,

268
00:43:56,607 --> 00:44:01,398
and I thank you. Thank you. Next speaker, Maine, may

269
00:44:01,723 --> 00:44:07,578
barry followed by Ronald Foster, followed by Keith Jones. Hello,

270
00:44:07,983 --> 00:44:12,586
everyone. Thank you take again city council. That I'm standing

271
00:44:12,631 --> 00:44:15,626
here. Before you ask about the flag, I just got

272
00:44:16,071 --> 00:44:18,746
information that you. Have put it on your agenda that.

273
00:44:20,801 --> 00:44:22,796
We will have that slide to find that red, black

274
00:44:22,841 --> 00:44:25,716
and green flag when we were black in America. We

275
00:44:25,761 --> 00:44:28,116
had a red flag, a green flag to fly over.

276
00:44:29,269 --> 00:44:31,664
Everyone's households and what have you, so we're going to

277
00:44:31,949 --> 00:44:33,864
have it flow over. The city of Detroit on one

278
00:44:33,869 --> 00:44:36,864
of these flagpoles for Juneteen th day and I thank

279
00:44:36,909 --> 00:44:40,024
you for everyone who comes in agreement with me and

280
00:44:40,309 --> 00:44:42,584
the reason why I'm asking for that red, black and

281
00:44:42,669 --> 00:44:44,904
green flag to fly over the city of Detroit is

282
00:44:45,189 --> 00:44:49,079
to give our youth hope. And our nation to come

283
00:44:49,444 --> 00:44:53,184
together. If we can honor everyone else. We do have

284
00:44:53,269 --> 00:44:56,184
pride in that red, black and green flag and. I

285
00:44:56,229 --> 00:44:59,264
thank you for that and also coming before you again

286
00:44:59,349 --> 00:45:01,984
because of the Mark Luther King memorial. Park that sits

287
00:45:02,029 --> 00:45:05,944
on the corner of Rosa Parks Boulevard and West grand

288
00:45:05,989 --> 00:45:10,868
boulevard. I'm still working with the parks and recreation who

289
00:45:11,153 --> 00:45:14,028
are not returning my calls on the renovation of the

290
00:45:14,393 --> 00:45:18,859
park or to do the cleanup. I need to. Have

291
00:45:19,344 --> 00:45:21,939
containers to pick up the trash and so forth. We

292
00:45:21,984 --> 00:45:23,459
do have people out there that's. Going to be working

293
00:45:23,824 --> 00:45:25,979
and cleaning, and I need to have someone to be

294
00:45:26,024 --> 00:45:28,139
able to pick. Up the trash because we will be

295
00:45:28,184 --> 00:45:32,659
at the park on the 23 June to recognize the

296
00:45:32,984 --> 00:45:35,299
park. For the march for freedom that Martin Luther King

297
00:45:35,344 --> 00:45:37,979
did 61 years ago. And I thank you for your

298
00:45:38,344 --> 00:45:42,179
time. And your effort. And I'm looking forward to hearing

299
00:45:42,464 --> 00:45:47,507
from someone I know, Mary Sheffield. President council. She did

300
00:45:47,952 --> 00:45:50,267
give me a number, but the gentleman has not returned

301
00:45:50,592 --> 00:45:54,235
my call at all. For the last week or so.

302
00:45:54,560 --> 00:45:56,715
I came last week and I'll be coming back to

303
00:45:56,800 --> 00:45:59,435
find out what time will be raised that flag. And

304
00:45:59,480 --> 00:46:02,115
I thank you again for your time. Thank you so

305
00:46:02,120 --> 00:46:06,967
much. All right. Next speaker is Mr. Ronald Foster, followed

306
00:46:06,972 --> 00:46:10,927
by Keith Jones, followed by Sylvia Thomas, Madam Clerk. If

307
00:46:10,932 --> 00:46:13,567
you can, please note that we've been joined by member

308
00:46:13,932 --> 00:46:17,127
Durhall circle. Note. Mr. President. Thank you so much. Mr.

309
00:46:17,532 --> 00:46:24,621
Foster. Good morning. Through the. Chair. Just a few things

310
00:46:24,946 --> 00:46:28,421
I wanted to come down express today. First community, the

311
00:46:28,706 --> 00:46:31,021
new and is broken down as in two words. The

312
00:46:31,026 --> 00:46:35,061
first word being common, second word being unity. We cannot

313
00:46:35,146 --> 00:46:39,505
have a community with our unity of common goals. So

314
00:46:39,550 --> 00:46:41,865
we have to identify these, really get down at the

315
00:46:41,870 --> 00:46:45,867
table and identify where our common goals. Are to establish

316
00:46:45,952 --> 00:46:49,294
the community. This rhetoric that I'm speaking is becoming a

317
00:46:49,299 --> 00:46:53,214
little old and redundant here. We need resources. To reinforce

318
00:46:53,619 --> 00:46:58,124
words. And progressions in life. Come down here just for

319
00:46:58,209 --> 00:47:02,004
that? I did want to say I appreciate 9.4 the

320
00:47:02,049 --> 00:47:04,724
Death sign studio Jerry, all of this work getting the

321
00:47:04,769 --> 00:47:09,124
knowledge here, I think that is very commendable. Secondly, I'd

322
00:47:09,089 --> 00:47:11,804
like to be involved in a veteran development. Here. I

323
00:47:12,089 --> 00:47:14,124
did a lot of advocating. I speak up very highly,

324
00:47:14,409 --> 00:47:18,021
I think. It represent veterans very well. To not be

325
00:47:18,306 --> 00:47:22,541
in part of the participation and development of Veterans department.

326
00:47:23,466 --> 00:47:28,228
Thirdly, we cannot afford to protest another 60 years. Protesting

327
00:47:28,513 --> 00:47:30,748
has not gotten us as far as we need to

328
00:47:30,793 --> 00:47:32,548
go. It was good for the moment. It was good

329
00:47:32,913 --> 00:47:35,948
for the season. That cannot be the only and absolute

330
00:47:36,113 --> 00:47:39,588
way to address our issues. And redress our grievances. We

331
00:47:39,633 --> 00:47:42,268
have to come together and get these things done, like.

332
00:47:42,513 --> 00:47:46,552
I said before, by any means necessary. Over the last

333
00:47:46,957 --> 00:47:51,571
week. We had children here. Our children. They cannot afford

334
00:47:52,256 --> 00:47:56,491
to be going to school and be incompromising position. We

335
00:47:56,496 --> 00:47:58,851
had this discussion over the last two years going to

336
00:47:59,216 --> 00:48:01,491
and fro school, and we don't. Want to have this

337
00:48:01,536 --> 00:48:04,291
discussion no more. That young man did not deserve to

338
00:48:04,576 --> 00:48:06,851
die or to get robbed or being that type of

339
00:48:06,896 --> 00:48:10,248
position, nor did the other child deserve to. Lose a

340
00:48:10,293 --> 00:48:12,408
finger. And so we all have to do a much

341
00:48:12,773 --> 00:48:15,888
better job in our community. I charge our pastors to

342
00:48:15,893 --> 00:48:19,406
get more active in the communities. Acknowledge our deacons. They

343
00:48:19,691 --> 00:48:21,566
do a really good job. Get more active in the

344
00:48:21,931 --> 00:48:25,086
communities, charge our legislator to get mental health facilities in

345
00:48:25,131 --> 00:48:30,269
our community. No alternatives. I appreciate it. It appears Mr.

346
00:48:30,354 --> 00:48:32,829
Keith Jones is not here, so we will go to

347
00:48:33,154 --> 00:48:39,596
Miss Sylvia Thomas. That will wrap up the public comments

348
00:48:39,921 --> 00:48:44,222
in the committee of the auditory. Good morning, Mr. Thomas.

349
00:48:46,114 --> 00:48:53,603
Good morning, council. I made a request to address. Counsel

350
00:48:53,688 --> 00:48:59,443
in regards to contract number 6000-6155 and I feel it

351
00:48:59,768 --> 00:49:03,962
is very important that once again. You postponed the vote

352
00:49:04,047 --> 00:49:07,242
until you're able to hear what I have to say.

353
00:49:08,353 --> 00:49:14,367
And I need longer. You have minute 30 still, though.

354
00:49:14,692 --> 00:49:16,447
I'm sorry? You have a minute 30 still at this.

355
00:49:16,532 --> 00:49:20,215
Moment right now. I don't want to start, and I

356
00:49:20,260 --> 00:49:24,135
won't be able to finish because when I filed the

357
00:49:24,260 --> 00:49:28,111
petition. It stated that I would have longer. I'm sorry.

358
00:49:31,235 --> 00:49:33,830
We can't promise that we will postpone it, so just

359
00:49:33,875 --> 00:49:35,510
giving you your time. I want to make sure you

360
00:49:35,515 --> 00:49:43,339
have. Okay. I own injury memories Headstone Monument Company, one

361
00:49:43,384 --> 00:49:46,419
of the second black owned monument companies in the city

362
00:49:46,464 --> 00:49:50,914
of Detroit. I'm the founder and owner for over 35

363
00:49:50,999 --> 00:49:54,834
years. I also own redemption cemetery services and I work

364
00:49:54,879 --> 00:49:58,474
at Elwood Cemetery. Go over twelve and a half years.

365
00:49:59,199 --> 00:50:03,126
I'm here today. To express my concerns regarding. The six

366
00:50:03,251 --> 00:50:08,926
contract 600-6155 for cemetery management. Scheduled for a vote before

367
00:50:09,011 --> 00:50:11,326
you today. I believe that my company has not been

368
00:50:11,971 --> 00:50:16,519
given a fair chance. Or consideration and evaluation or awarding

369
00:50:16,844 --> 00:50:19,199
of this contract. I need to provide a brief history

370
00:50:19,564 --> 00:50:22,279
so that you will have the full picture of why

371
00:50:22,884 --> 00:50:26,283
I am protesting. In 2020, when S and T Enterprise

372
00:50:26,568 --> 00:50:31,070
abruptly left the city without managing. The municipal cemeteries. I

373
00:50:31,075 --> 00:50:34,630
was called on a Sunday evening at 11:30 p.m. And

374
00:50:34,675 --> 00:50:38,550
asked if I was interested in temporarily managing the cemetery

375
00:50:38,875 --> 00:50:42,896
until a bid could be released. Out of my care

376
00:50:43,221 --> 00:50:46,689
and love for the city of Detroit. I temporarily closed

377
00:50:46,694 --> 00:50:49,809
my monument company to come to the aid of the

378
00:50:50,094 --> 00:50:52,849
city. The next morning, I was on call at 08:00

379
00:50:53,214 --> 00:50:56,809
a.m. With the senior management of the general. Services department.

380
00:50:57,454 --> 00:51:00,289
I was at Gethsemane within an hour with a team

381
00:51:00,374 --> 00:51:03,809
which was supposed to be for a three month assignment

382
00:51:03,854 --> 00:51:06,952
that turned into a six month. And then one year,

383
00:51:07,677 --> 00:51:11,927
my first day. At this. Have you filed a formal

384
00:51:12,732 --> 00:51:15,447
protest? Yes, sir. Okay. All right. So that's in the

385
00:51:15,492 --> 00:51:19,889
process. Thank you so much. Thank you. And that takes

386
00:51:19,974 --> 00:51:23,089
us to the last person we have in the auditorium,

387
00:51:23,654 --> 00:51:26,649
which you'll now go to our online public. Comments Ari,

388
00:51:27,254 --> 00:51:30,849
who do we have first? Good morning, Mr. Chair. We

389
00:51:30,894 --> 00:51:34,369
had 18 hands raised because someone had two of their

390
00:51:34,414 --> 00:51:39,635
hands raised. The first caller is. Phone number ending in

391
00:51:39,680 --> 00:51:42,635
four one eight. Call her. Inning in four one eight.

392
00:51:42,720 --> 00:51:47,555
The floor is yours. 313-44-9114 can you hear me? Yes,

393
00:51:47,600 --> 00:51:57,523
sir. 3134-911-4313 full 4911 full and on Facebook. Retroactive

394
00:51:57,608 --> 00:52:03,763
fairness again. On Facebook. Retroactive fairness. One more time. Retroactive

395
00:52:04,168 --> 00:52:08,902
fairness on Facebook. I want to thank everybody. For lifting

396
00:52:08,947 --> 00:52:11,142
me up in prayer, friend and the Holy Spirit and

397
00:52:11,187 --> 00:52:17,449
chanting. Had muffler trouble, had bearing trouble. I didn't make

398
00:52:17,814 --> 00:52:21,289
any money over this last weekend with the electronic music

399
00:52:21,694 --> 00:52:26,283
festival because my muffler sounded so bad. And so loud

400
00:52:26,928 --> 00:52:29,643
no one wanted to get in. But God made a

401
00:52:29,648 --> 00:52:32,029
way out of no way. I got a phone call.

402
00:52:33,600 --> 00:52:36,755
And they had a donor that wanted to donate $1,000

403
00:52:37,520 --> 00:52:39,755
but didn't want me to say their name and who

404
00:52:39,800 --> 00:52:43,715
they were, and I agreed to that. And then they

405
00:52:44,040 --> 00:52:48,738
gave them my information. I stopped by their home and

406
00:52:49,063 --> 00:52:53,540
they had a check. And some cash. This is just

407
00:52:53,625 --> 00:52:55,900
to say that, God, no matter if you're not perfect,

408
00:52:57,066 --> 00:53:02,106
Everyone's cup of tea. You may have idiosyncrasies and sins.

409
00:53:03,307 --> 00:53:05,302
But you're trying to do the best that would describe

410
00:53:05,707 --> 00:53:09,700
me. And God loves us so much that he makes

411
00:53:10,465 --> 00:53:13,736
a way out of nowhere. Everyone on the sound of

412
00:53:13,781 --> 00:53:15,856
my voice. I would like you to ride the coaches,

413
00:53:15,901 --> 00:53:19,096
ride the buses. The worst times after 06:00 p.m. And

414
00:53:19,381 --> 00:53:22,136
on the weekends. But write it. When you can. If

415
00:53:22,421 --> 00:53:24,576
you would like to ride along with me. The last

416
00:53:24,661 --> 00:53:28,376
ride along we had was with the district two manager.

417
00:53:30,146 --> 00:53:36,649
Ms. Tandy, and she really. Enjoyed the experience. Councilman tate.

418
00:53:39,187 --> 00:53:42,170
Pro. Tim will join us again. On a ride along

419
00:53:42,255 --> 00:53:46,354
or any other council person. It was interesting, and I

420
00:53:46,359 --> 00:53:55,153
hope we can do it again. Thank you. Next call.

421
00:53:56,423 --> 00:54:01,479
The next caller is election integrity, Rue. Rumor. James Crowley

422
00:54:01,524 --> 00:54:04,639
Jr. The floor is yours. Two minutes. General public comment.

423
00:54:05,873 --> 00:54:14,713
Ruben james crowley jr. Are you there? Let's put Ruben

424
00:54:14,998 --> 00:54:24,787
James. There he is. Hey, siri. Deferring, chief. As

425
00:54:25,152 --> 00:54:29,244
a verb. Cheat means. Act dishonestly were unfairly in order

426
00:54:29,329 --> 00:54:32,964
to gain an advantage, especially in a game or examination.

427
00:54:33,569 --> 00:54:37,323
Do you want to hear the next one? Yes. As

428
00:54:37,368 --> 00:54:41,803
a verb. It means avoid something undesirable by luck or

429
00:54:42,208 --> 00:54:45,103
skill. Do you want. To hear the last one. Yes.

430
00:54:46,384 --> 00:54:50,059
As a noun. It means a person who behaves dishonestly

431
00:54:50,104 --> 00:54:54,752
in order to gain an advantage. Now Janice Winfrey is

432
00:54:55,077 --> 00:55:02,546
caught blue handed. Mine on public record. And blue handed

433
00:55:02,991 --> 00:55:06,989
cheating. Well, Gina Avery Walker in the Department of election

434
00:55:07,754 --> 00:55:14,038
in Detroit elections. The proof was conclusive. Irrefutable. Sealed two

435
00:55:14,403 --> 00:55:19,398
beer trap crew. Now Detroit elections have been compromised. Every

436
00:55:20,123 --> 00:55:22,998
elected position in the city of Detroit. That includes yours,

437
00:55:23,563 --> 00:55:29,421
Jay Z. Tate Jr. Is highly. Suspect in question now,

438
00:55:29,506 --> 00:55:32,501
because of the cheating that's going on at the department

439
00:55:32,906 --> 00:55:38,049
of election. The question is. Who did it? Who put

440
00:55:38,374 --> 00:55:42,842
the bogus information into the city's database? That's the question

441
00:55:43,207 --> 00:55:47,282
that needs to be asked and answered now. There is

442
00:55:47,687 --> 00:55:50,842
someone who is doing data entry over the department of

443
00:55:50,887 --> 00:55:55,242
Elections and there is no ballot for John Fitzgerald Kennedy

444
00:55:55,607 --> 00:56:00,002
III at the Detroit Department of Election. And my contention

445
00:56:00,047 --> 00:56:03,076
also is that there is not a valid. For Mary

446
00:56:03,361 --> 00:56:06,996
Elaine Beckman over at the department of Alexa. Now, several

447
00:56:07,321 --> 00:56:10,956
members of consul have been given the allegations of voter

448
00:56:11,001 --> 00:56:15,596
fraud by anonymous citizens report done by Dennis Winfrey and

449
00:56:15,641 --> 00:56:21,329
the Department of elections. Page eight clearly is the nail

450
00:56:21,654 --> 00:56:30,029
in the coffee. Scholar, please. The next caller is Mike

451
00:56:30,354 --> 00:56:33,945
Duggan. Worst mayor loses billions. Calls of the floor is

452
00:56:33,990 --> 00:56:37,448
yours. You have two minutes. General public comment. Good morning.

453
00:56:39,178 --> 00:56:44,253
The hearer mayor here, Mr. Duggan, has denied, along with

454
00:56:44,578 --> 00:56:52,612
Kim Tandy, denied that. They are actively. Impeding restitution for

455
00:56:52,897 --> 00:56:57,812
Detroit, who are illegally foreclosed between 2010 and this very

456
00:56:58,217 --> 00:57:04,014
moment, mayor Duggan. We want you to apologize to the

457
00:57:04,339 --> 00:57:09,693
citizens and homeowners that you are foreclosing. On illegally. And

458
00:57:09,778 --> 00:57:16,578
illegally overtaxing. In that paper from Rebecca diamond. Signs that

459
00:57:16,663 --> 00:57:23,183
foreclosures. Have devastating long term impacts on homeowners. Reduce likelihood

460
00:57:23,588 --> 00:57:29,405
of buying another house. In subsequent years. The financial strain

461
00:57:29,450 --> 00:57:33,765
and loss of property makes it challenging for them to

462
00:57:34,250 --> 00:57:41,443
reenter their housing market. Less secure living arrangements. Difficulties in

463
00:57:41,488 --> 00:57:47,484
finding stable housing. Increasing debt default more likely.

464
00:57:52,256 --> 00:57:58,163
To divorce and relocate. In lower quality neighborhood due to

465
00:57:58,168 --> 00:58:05,977
the foreclosure. It causes homelessness and these other debilitating. Situations,

466
00:58:06,022 --> 00:58:13,047
so we demand. An apology. We demand. Payment for our

467
00:58:13,492 --> 00:58:21,079
foreclose. The illegally taxed homes. And institute restitution. We call

468
00:58:21,164 --> 00:58:25,679
on Eric Sabri to stop the foreclosure, the illegal foreclosures.

469
00:58:26,364 --> 00:58:32,350
Of homes that. Were illegally taxed. On Coleman Young and

470
00:58:32,395 --> 00:58:40,956
others who are obstruct. Obstructing the two resolutions and have

471
00:58:41,001 --> 00:58:45,521
a great day. Next caller, please. The next caller is

472
00:58:45,806 --> 00:58:49,001
William M. Davis. William M. Davis, the floor is yours.

473
00:58:49,206 --> 00:58:52,401
Two minutes, general public. Comment. Good morning. Can I be

474
00:58:52,486 --> 00:58:55,561
heard? Yes. Okay. I'd like to start off by saying.

475
00:58:55,606 --> 00:58:58,041
That we have a problem. And the problem has been

476
00:58:58,126 --> 00:59:00,361
grown, especially for the last ten years in the city

477
00:59:00,726 --> 00:59:02,281
of Detroit. I bet most of you think I'm going

478
00:59:02,526 --> 00:59:05,819
to say something about the bankruptcy, but. I'm not at

479
00:59:06,184 --> 00:59:08,859
this time. I'm saying that the problem is in the

480
00:59:09,184 --> 00:59:13,528
last ten years. The number of police officers living outside

481
00:59:13,893 --> 00:59:17,528
the city has greatly increased. You know, right now, today,

482
00:59:19,433 --> 00:59:22,628
Less than 10% of the command staff for the Detroit

483
00:59:22,673 --> 00:59:26,123
Police Department lives in the city. That is a problem.

484
00:59:26,448 --> 00:59:28,403
I know I'm older than most of you all, but.

485
00:59:29,590 --> 00:59:32,185
One of the things that helped Comey young get elected

486
00:59:32,230 --> 00:59:35,465
is the fact that the police department executive staff and

487
00:59:35,790 --> 00:59:38,585
a lot of their officers was predominantly of one race,

488
00:59:39,190 --> 00:59:40,625
and more and more of the people in the city

489
00:59:40,630 --> 00:59:44,185
of Detroit was the number race that is drifting again.

490
00:59:45,510 --> 00:59:47,865
That could be major problems for the future of this

491
00:59:47,950 --> 00:59:53,238
city. Just looking at. How different people are treated differently.

492
00:59:54,083 --> 00:59:57,186
Look at open a day Tiger stadium. You have a

493
00:59:57,191 --> 00:59:59,866
lot of people who live outside the city who come

494
01:00:00,231 --> 01:00:05,506
downtown, smoke, drank, urinating. In public, hardly nothing happens. But

495
01:00:05,511 --> 01:00:08,706
you have black and brown people to have events, and

496
01:00:09,311 --> 01:00:14,827
they are micromanaged. And hostility is going to keep growing.

497
01:00:16,242 --> 01:00:18,877
It needs to be greater incentives to make sure more

498
01:00:18,922 --> 01:00:22,437
of our officers, and especially the command officers. Live inside

499
01:00:22,922 --> 01:00:27,435
the city. This city is changing. It appears to more

500
01:00:27,440 --> 01:00:30,435
and more, especially young people. I'm a senior, but it

501
01:00:30,480 --> 01:00:32,715
appears to more and more young people like we have

502
01:00:33,080 --> 01:00:38,587
an occupying army here. That's keeping certain people in their

503
01:00:38,632 --> 01:00:42,829
place, so. I encourage you to do more to try

504
01:00:43,154 --> 01:00:45,509
to change this trend that's been happening for the last

505
01:00:45,874 --> 01:00:51,324
ten years. Thank you. Thank you. Next caller, please. The

506
01:00:51,409 --> 01:00:57,854
next caller is Stephen Horring. Stephen Harring. Yes. Floor is

507
01:00:57,899 --> 01:01:04,220
yours. Awesome. Thank you. Really love the presentation today. We

508
01:01:04,265 --> 01:01:09,044
have been. I believe the last time we saw. A

509
01:01:09,129 --> 01:01:14,004
racer driver from Detroit city limits was the Lake Benny

510
01:01:14,049 --> 01:01:17,619
Parson. Was a nascar champion, and that was, I believe,

511
01:01:20,882 --> 01:01:24,837
In the 60s or 70s. We need to find a

512
01:01:24,882 --> 01:01:30,219
race car driver from Detroit City lamin. And I think

513
01:01:30,584 --> 01:01:34,919
we really could. If Penski and maybe other organizations did

514
01:01:35,604 --> 01:01:39,639
like a rifle driver search, which was believe, like 20

515
01:01:40,044 --> 01:01:45,748
years ago, specifically. For someone from Detroit city limits, I

516
01:01:45,753 --> 01:01:49,713
think that could be a really cool thing. I really

517
01:01:49,798 --> 01:01:55,064
think we could. Make a Lewis Hamilton from Detroit. Second

518
01:01:55,429 --> 01:01:58,744
of all, I'm not happy about all these street blockages

519
01:01:59,189 --> 01:02:02,779
and stuff. The draft. As much as I loved it.

520
01:02:03,104 --> 01:02:06,994
I mean, it did so much for the city. They

521
01:02:07,039 --> 01:02:13,498
were very inconsiderate. Security was very rude and unprofessional. They

522
01:02:13,503 --> 01:02:17,662
were actually keeping gates open. Specifically so they could get

523
01:02:17,987 --> 01:02:23,572
a confrontation. And. For the years with the Grand Prix.

524
01:02:24,729 --> 01:02:27,724
What kind of caused them? No Graham Creon Valio movement

525
01:02:28,049 --> 01:02:34,457
was just how unprofessional. I consider it both security and

526
01:02:34,542 --> 01:02:39,053
the Grand Prix was. I really hope, because in Le

527
01:02:39,098 --> 01:02:44,775
Mon. They don't shut down the streets completely till, like,

528
01:02:45,140 --> 01:02:49,495
30 minutes before the race starts, so. I think we

529
01:02:49,540 --> 01:02:53,215
need to really wait to shut down the streets completely

530
01:02:53,900 --> 01:02:57,992
to the day. The race starts. Because there are people

531
01:02:58,077 --> 01:03:06,154
that live downtown. Next caller, please. The next caller is

532
01:03:06,479 --> 01:03:11,202
Margarit Scarlett. Marvin, Madison, Scarlett, the floor is yours. General

533
01:03:11,567 --> 01:03:15,162
public comment. Good morning. Good morning.

534
01:03:32,333 --> 01:03:37,831
I agree with. The last. Caller.

535
01:04:05,686 --> 01:04:07,909
Because. I want to go down.

536
01:04:23,342 --> 01:04:23,497
That is my.

537
01:04:33,916 --> 01:04:35,403
Love. To clean.

538
01:04:47,656 --> 01:04:53,304
And the grand sea. We can find a better way.

539
01:04:58,753 --> 01:04:59,868
To set it up.

540
01:05:27,935 --> 01:05:36,987
I need. To. Make sure. That. We.

541
01:05:44,511 --> 01:05:49,795
Get some. Of the.

542
01:06:01,688 --> 01:06:01,723
American.

543
01:06:19,028 --> 01:06:25,296
Test that are going. Opposite.

544
01:06:30,030 --> 01:06:39,994
Do not. Live instead of. Thank you very

545
01:06:40,039 --> 01:06:45,863
much. Thank you, Ms. Madam. Next call, please. The next

546
01:06:46,188 --> 01:06:50,038
caller is Karen's iPad. Karen's iPad. The floor is yours.

547
01:06:50,283 --> 01:06:55,084
You have two minutes. Your republic time. Hello? Yeah. Good

548
01:06:55,449 --> 01:07:00,290
morning. Yeah, I agree with that very first caller. I

549
01:07:00,335 --> 01:07:04,683
believe I'm being stalked, too. Several of my accounts have

550
01:07:04,728 --> 01:07:07,283
been hacked and I can't seem to get any resolution.

551
01:07:07,608 --> 01:07:12,353
Not necessarily hacked, but. Because you guys have everything contacted

552
01:07:12,678 --> 01:07:16,562
out. Companies are just all up in our business and

553
01:07:17,127 --> 01:07:22,258
they sell it. So I saw. This company that was

554
01:07:22,623 --> 01:07:26,498
formed in 2012 or 13, and it was called Air,

555
01:07:26,583 --> 01:07:31,448
and it's electronic record. Something. They gathered record, and it

556
01:07:31,453 --> 01:07:36,208
was started by voting officials. Check this out. 34 of

557
01:07:36,253 --> 01:07:40,944
50 states. Were getting records, all the vote. They have

558
01:07:40,989 --> 01:07:44,504
all your information. They cross check, they check your license.

559
01:07:44,549 --> 01:07:46,864
Your birth, your death records, they check your Social Security.

560
01:07:48,062 --> 01:07:50,097
They have all your information. Then they send it every

561
01:07:50,502 --> 01:07:54,609
two months to the people who join. The high election

562
01:07:54,894 --> 01:07:59,409
officials from 34 states joined Eric. So it's no wonder

563
01:07:59,774 --> 01:08:02,569
that all people's information is all out on web and

564
01:08:02,894 --> 01:08:06,802
everywhere. It's not accident, but yet, state police, they've been

565
01:08:07,127 --> 01:08:10,762
audited. Horrible as it relates to people's information. The city

566
01:08:11,127 --> 01:08:15,002
of Detroit, everybody's letting her information out there. Something needs

567
01:08:15,087 --> 01:08:16,962
to be done about that now. We're supposed to have

568
01:08:17,287 --> 01:08:22,202
cybersecurity. Expertise. Been doing it since 1969. At least that's.

569
01:08:23,389 --> 01:08:24,464
What one of the years is, and one of the

570
01:08:24,509 --> 01:08:27,984
email they mistakenly sent me 1969. So I know this

571
01:08:27,989 --> 01:08:30,476
has been going on for a long time. Are you

572
01:08:30,521 --> 01:08:32,916
guys still comfortable? Because they got your back? Because as

573
01:08:32,921 --> 01:08:38,030
long as they get money, get. Money. But. It seems

574
01:08:38,115 --> 01:08:40,790
to me that you should have some type of fear,

575
01:08:41,075 --> 01:08:42,510
but you don't because. You got the mayor, you got

576
01:08:42,755 --> 01:08:45,110
the president, you got booty jig, you got all them.

577
01:08:45,395 --> 01:08:49,332
Guys. Lansing and in DC. But the bigger they are,

578
01:08:49,377 --> 01:08:53,786
you know what they say. Thanks, guys. Bye. Bye. You.

579
01:08:54,191 --> 01:08:58,733
Next caller, please. The next caller is call in user

580
01:08:59,098 --> 01:09:01,693
one. Call a user one. The floor is yours. You

581
01:09:01,738 --> 01:09:06,156
have two minutes, general. Republic time. Caller. User one, are

582
01:09:06,521 --> 01:09:12,898
you there? All right, let's put this caller at the

583
01:09:12,943 --> 01:09:15,218
end of the queue and go to the next public

584
01:09:15,703 --> 01:09:21,338
commenter. Okay, the next caller is Renard Monchemsky, Bernard Manchinsky.

585
01:09:21,343 --> 01:09:23,178
The floor is yours. You have two minutes. General public

586
01:09:23,583 --> 01:09:29,266
comment. Good morning. Can I be heard? Yes, sir.

587
01:09:34,025 --> 01:09:38,561
Good morning. I'm organized with Detroit People's platform trans adjustice

588
01:09:38,606 --> 01:09:40,361
team, and I hope you all had a really great

589
01:09:40,766 --> 01:09:47,398
memorial holiday weekend. I just also wanted to speak to

590
01:09:47,723 --> 01:09:51,745
my concerns about the grand pee. First of all. I

591
01:09:51,750 --> 01:09:54,465
don't want to sound like I'm against any sort of

592
01:09:54,550 --> 01:09:58,105
events in downtown. Detroit, especially with the draft. The Grand

593
01:09:58,430 --> 01:10:01,105
Prix, I think, is encouraging that it's in downtown. Instead

594
01:10:01,550 --> 01:10:05,876
of our city park or state park at Bellau. I

595
01:10:05,881 --> 01:10:10,483
just think that we need better communication. With bus riders

596
01:10:10,728 --> 01:10:14,497
and people that use paratransit. And those folks that live

597
01:10:14,862 --> 01:10:18,265
downtown, they use public transit as well. As to where

598
01:10:18,310 --> 01:10:21,785
they can navigate the area where the street closures and

599
01:10:21,830 --> 01:10:25,745
just have those posted. And place, just not on the

600
01:10:25,790 --> 01:10:28,865
Internet, but also on flyers or something that people can

601
01:10:28,910 --> 01:10:33,333
pick up. At the bus stops or stations. So people

602
01:10:33,698 --> 01:10:38,246
can get around. Undisturbed. Or able to enjoy the event

603
01:10:39,011 --> 01:10:41,726
as well, too. So when we have these public events,

604
01:10:42,011 --> 01:10:44,828
we just want to make sure that. We pull out

605
01:10:44,873 --> 01:10:47,108
all the stops, but we also make sure that our

606
01:10:47,433 --> 01:10:49,588
residents and folks that live here in the city are

607
01:10:49,713 --> 01:10:53,334
also taken care of. As we welcome guests into our

608
01:10:53,659 --> 01:10:58,473
city's events so we're not inconvenienced. At the extent of

609
01:10:58,518 --> 01:11:01,633
guests. That's all. Thank you all the rest of my

610
01:11:01,678 --> 01:11:07,347
time. Thank you. Next caller, please. The next caller is

611
01:11:07,672 --> 01:11:10,867
Betty Avarnor. Betty Avarner, the floor is yours. You have

612
01:11:11,072 --> 01:11:14,707
two minutes. General public comment good morning to all. Within

01:11:15,072 --> 01:11:18,267
the sound of my voice, I hope everyone had enjoyable,

614
01:11:18,752 --> 01:11:24,733
peaceful holiday. I'm betty a. Barner, president of soda ellsworth

Finkel and Livonoids to thinkle and Wyoming. We're. Still waiting

618
01:11:42,739 --> 01:11:48,099
patiently. For our first. Community meeting to be scheduled. We

619
01:11:48,144 --> 01:11:52,869
did have a date, but it was canceled because. It

620
01:11:52,994 --> 01:11:59,485
conflicted with one of the council. Evening meetings. Also, I'm

621
01:11:59,810 --> 01:12:03,284
asking for support. For our event that we're going to

622
01:12:03,569 --> 01:12:08,041
have. August 3, they arise, Detroit. We are going to

623
01:12:08,086 --> 01:12:13,794
be part of the rise Detroit neighborhood. Day program. We

624
01:12:13,799 --> 01:12:18,606
are going to be bringing resources to our neighborhood. It's

625
01:12:18,931 --> 01:12:22,206
a citywide event. This will be our third annual event,

626
01:12:23,011 --> 01:12:27,086
and we are focusing on health and the children, and

627
01:12:27,731 --> 01:12:31,855
we need donations. For our bouncy house. We're looking for

628
01:12:32,220 --> 01:12:40,877
school supplies, backpacks, volunteer. Barber hairbreather. We're also asking that.

629
01:12:43,356 --> 01:12:48,175
The city and. The council. Please come up with a

630
01:12:48,220 --> 01:12:54,307
program to assist. Community organizations who have taken on the

631
01:12:54,352 --> 01:13:00,333
responsibility of maintaining the parts in their area. We know

632
01:13:00,938 --> 01:13:03,853
the city maintains some of the parks, but they don't

633
01:13:04,218 --> 01:13:08,504
maintain all of them. So. We're not looking for a

634
01:13:08,549 --> 01:13:11,664
handout. We're just looking for some help. Thank you for

635
01:13:11,989 --> 01:13:16,369

01:13:16,774 --> 01:13:20,498
please. The next caller is. Phone number ending in two.

637
01:13:20,543 --> 01:13:24,642
70. Caller ending in two 70. The floor is yours.

638
01:13:24,687 --> 01:13:27,454
You have two minutes, general, to come. Yes. Good afternoon.

639
01:13:27,779 --> 01:13:32,222
Can I be heard? Yes. Too bad Coleman Young isn't

640
01:13:32,307 --> 01:13:41,394
there today. But anyway. Out of a small sampling. Of

641
01:13:41,479 --> 01:13:46,505
about 300 votes. We have discovered out of that smaller

642
01:13:46,550 --> 01:13:56,424
sampling. Approximately. 50. Incidents of people who are recorded to

643
01:13:56,789 --> 01:14:03,534
have voted. Yet they could not have voted legally. In

644
01:14:03,579 --> 01:14:09,396
local Detroit elections. We have the evidence. To prove it.

645
01:14:11,012 --> 01:14:15,572
And so all this business about this no widespread. Voter

646
01:14:15,937 --> 01:14:21,544
fraud. And trying to connect us with. Right wing Republicans

647
01:14:22,349 --> 01:14:27,322
and whatever happened with Trump. In the last presidential election.

648
01:14:27,567 --> 01:14:29,042
This doesn't have anything to do with any of that.

649
01:14:29,727 --> 01:14:33,723
This is about fraud going on. In local city of

650
01:14:34,088 --> 01:14:41,724
Detroit elections that we have evidence and proof. Of. And

651
01:14:42,089 --> 01:14:45,791
you can't say it isn't widespread again. When we only

652
01:14:45,876 --> 01:14:50,028
went through. A list of 300 voters and found 50

653
01:14:50,473 --> 01:14:56,572
incidents. Of voter fraud. It's a sad state of affairs

654
01:14:57,337 --> 01:15:02,946
and it's a shame that the city of Detroit. Does

655
01:15:02,991 --> 01:15:09,549
not have any viable. News or information platforms anymore. The

656
01:15:09,874 --> 01:15:14,512
Michigan Chronicle. Have been compromised. We no longer have the

657
01:15:14,597 --> 01:15:22,134
Michigan citizen. And these other newspapers. And media outnets. They're

658
01:15:22,139 --> 01:15:24,494
nothing but sick offense and lap dogs for the Duggan

659
01:15:24,859 --> 01:15:30,121
administration. They have forgotten. That the obligation of the news

660
01:15:30,846 --> 01:15:35,347
is to afflict the comfortable. Thank you. Next caller, please.

661
01:15:36,152 --> 01:15:40,819

01:15:43,904 --> 01:15:48,244
you hear me? Yes. So I'm from the state fair

664
01:15:48,769 --> 01:15:52,284
grounds solar park area. I just want to speak in

665
01:15:52,609 --> 01:15:56,084
favor of that. I just think that our community in

666
01:15:56,129 --> 01:16:03,153
the state, fair grounds. Community has under investment. And I

667
01:16:03,158 --> 01:16:09,753
think that the investment in the. Solar. Park. Will be

668
01:16:09,758 --> 01:16:14,027
a great thing for our community and also. For adding

669
01:16:14,712 --> 01:16:17,307
comparables to home sales so that we can start getting

670
01:16:17,472 --> 01:16:22,230
loans on our own. So the city would purchase homes.

671
01:16:23,439 --> 01:16:28,740
To add. For the solar farm. And that's all you

672
01:16:28,745 --> 01:16:31,535
have the rest of my time. Thank you. Next caller,

681
01:17:09,848 --> 01:17:13,615
public comment. Good morning. May I be heard? Yes, ma'am.

682
01:17:19,785 --> 01:17:24,199
Okay. Thank you. Well, I would urge this council. To

683
01:17:24,964 --> 01:17:26,999
hear a petition from anyone who would like to talk

684
01:17:27,044 --> 01:17:32,142
about. The voting anomalies that are being found. I mean,

685
01:17:32,187 --> 01:17:35,222
if there isn't a problem, just explain it. If there

686
01:17:35,267 --> 01:17:39,287
is, we need to. Look into it. I notice there's

687
01:17:39,332 --> 01:17:45,407
a resolution for honoring. US Senator Debbie Stabenoff. Let me

688
01:17:45,492 --> 01:17:48,651
tell you what her staff person told me. When I

689
01:17:48,696 --> 01:17:53,391
heard Mr. Duggan give misinformation to the voters before. The

690
01:17:53,436 --> 01:17:56,711
vote on proposition n, which may not even properly pass

691
01:17:57,076 --> 01:18:00,151
if we don't check out. This voting situation. But anyway,

692
01:18:00,556 --> 01:18:02,751
there were people saying, well, you didn't bulldoze in my

693
01:18:02,836 --> 01:18:05,231
area. Why was that? So why would you get more

694
01:18:05,316 --> 01:18:07,951
mass, more money? Well, I heard him. Say we bought

695
01:18:07,996 --> 01:18:10,351
those where the feds told us to. Well, guess what?

696
01:18:11,480 --> 01:18:15,235
Terry gets Campbell from Senator Stabeno's office told me that

697
01:18:15,560 --> 01:18:19,106
wasn't true. That the federal government just gave them environmental

698
01:18:19,391 --> 01:18:22,106
regulations they had to follow, which in too many cases,

699
01:18:22,151 --> 01:18:25,167
they did not. Because of the dirty dirt put and

700
01:18:25,212 --> 01:18:27,327
holds my neighbors. They have dirty dirt in some of

701
01:18:27,293 --> 01:18:31,568
the side lots they got. But no. It was the

702
01:18:31,613 --> 01:18:35,088
city that picked the neighborhood stabilization programs. In other words,

703
01:18:35,413 --> 01:18:38,128
they picked the areas they want to focus on. Like

704
01:18:38,213 --> 01:18:40,728
it looks like the land bank is focusing on to

705
01:18:40,773 --> 01:18:44,368
gentrify. The areas they want to gentrify with their targeted

706
01:18:44,653 --> 01:18:47,408
nuisance abatement programs. When I'm sure there are areas across

707
01:18:47,773 --> 01:18:51,211
the country they haven't even sent their inspectors. To. So

708
01:18:51,576 --> 01:18:53,691
if you're going to honor deputy Stabeno, will then honor

709
01:18:54,256 --> 01:18:56,331
what? A staff person? Said. And that shows that, including

710
01:18:56,936 --> 01:19:00,651
Arthur Jameson, I heard him misrepresent to the people. That?

711
01:19:01,296 --> 01:19:03,651
Oh, the land bank was only as bulldozing. There is

712
01:19:03,656 --> 01:19:06,811
where the Fed told them. To. That was not true.

713
01:19:08,746 --> 01:19:11,501
I also would like to encourage you. Now, I've talked

714
01:19:11,826 --> 01:19:15,061
to Mowers at the DIA Detroit instrument they pick up

715
01:19:15,426 --> 01:19:19,802
garbage before they mow. So why is the city tolerating

716
01:19:20,167 --> 01:19:24,925
spending all this money? Thank you. Next caller, please. The

717
01:19:25,290 --> 01:19:28,325
next caller is. Phone number ending in 30 one. All

718
01:19:28,690 --> 01:19:30,565

01:19:30,570 --> 01:19:38,571
have two minutes, general public time. Okay. Hello. This is

720
01:19:38,896 --> 01:19:42,411
Richard Clay. I am the president of the Detroit chapter,

721
01:19:42,456 --> 01:19:48,582

722
01:19:48,707 --> 01:19:53,142
submitted the buying people's water rights agenda to the DWSd.

723
01:19:53,467 --> 01:19:58,708
It has been well received. We will keep. The city

725
01:20:03,073 --> 01:20:05,388
the needs of our community as well as water needs

726
01:20:05,473 --> 01:20:09,382
of the greater community. We are also going to be

727
01:20:09,787 --> 01:20:13,862

728
01:20:14,227 --> 01:20:19,205
with disabilities of all disabilities. Who need to move around

729
01:20:19,610 --> 01:20:22,918
and outside of the city of Detroit. We'll be launching

730
01:20:22,923 --> 01:20:26,398
that proposal very soon and keeping the city updated as

731
01:20:26,403 --> 01:20:29,878
to how that goes. I'm really here also today to

what we wanted to do and protect and uplift renters.

Here in the. City of Detroit, people. Detroit. You have

741
01:21:13,909 --> 01:21:16,744
to participate in it. You have to be there keeping

742
01:21:17,069 --> 01:21:19,264
it. Honest, making it strong and seeing to it that

743
01:21:19,349 --> 01:21:22,384
it gets the resources that it needs, legal, financial, and

744
01:21:22,429 --> 01:21:26,464
otherwise, to be strong and reminding the city council that

745
01:21:27,269 --> 01:21:33,269
again, We have to continue. To get the landlords in

746
01:21:33,314 --> 01:21:36,309
order here in this city, but we also have to

747
01:21:36,394 --> 01:21:40,829
redo. And finish doing the rental ordinance so that removing

748
01:21:41,154 --> 01:21:44,763
the most onerous parts from it. Thank you so much.

749
01:21:48,220 --> 01:21:51,481
Next caller, please. The next caller is phone number ending

750
01:21:51,766 --> 01:21:54,521
in three three seven. Caller ending in three three seven.

751
01:21:54,606 --> 01:21:56,721
The floor is yours. You have two minutes. General public

752
01:21:57,166 --> 01:22:05,138
comment. May I be heard? Thank you. Okay. This is

753
01:22:05,463 --> 01:22:11,669
Patricia Bosch. I'm resident of district three. And. I'm very

754
01:22:11,714 --> 01:22:18,297
concerned about the city dumping. All its waste and industrial

755
01:22:18,662 --> 01:22:22,217
uses that it does not want to put in downtown,

756
01:22:22,582 --> 01:22:27,398
midtown or Cork. Town. We are losing population in District

757
01:22:27,763 --> 01:22:33,699
three. And the continued industrialization of our neighborhoods without proper.

758
01:22:34,813 --> 01:22:41,544
Buffering and permitting. I'm speaking of the cement crushing. Operation

759
01:22:41,909 --> 01:22:46,326
Crown development. At six mile and also the Bel Air

760
01:22:47,011 --> 01:22:51,546
Shopping Center. More so. I'm concerned about the flooding on

761
01:22:51,911 --> 01:22:56,626
Stotter Avenue and Eastlands and. Other areas in our district.

762
01:22:58,520 --> 01:23:03,170
Most of all. Do not pass the buy right section

763
01:23:03,535 --> 01:23:08,330
of the childcare ordinance because all of these sum totaled

764
01:23:08,655 --> 01:23:12,330
affect the quality of life of our neighborhood, and we

765
01:23:12,375 --> 01:23:17,990
are working. Side by side. But Arpa money is flooded

766
01:23:18,395 --> 01:23:23,499
to other areas. Joe lewis greenway but our millbain connor

767
01:23:23,504 --> 01:23:30,308
creek greenway. Is left untouched with any funding and maintenance.

768
01:23:31,345 --> 01:23:37,896
Also. I'm looking at. The hidden creeks like Connor Creek

769
01:23:38,261 --> 01:23:42,634
and others. Maybe they are a solution to the flooding.

770
01:23:43,730 --> 01:23:49,743
Modern technology. Needs to reckon with the natural environment and

771
01:23:50,108 --> 01:23:53,343
the closing of six mile, which was done under mayor

772
01:23:53,668 --> 01:23:58,870
Coleman Young and Irma Henderson Council. Was to be a

773
01:23:58,915 --> 01:24:02,030
three to five year closure at the most. And all

774
01:24:02,035 --> 01:24:05,190
of that impacts all of the issues that I just

775
01:24:05,595 --> 01:24:14,263
addressed. So. Asking. You. Next caller, please. The next color

776
01:24:14,348 --> 01:24:17,343
is Miko A. Williams. Miko A. Williams, the floor is

777
01:24:17,388 --> 01:24:20,971
yours. You have two minutes. General public comment. Hi. Yes.

778
01:24:21,296 --> 01:24:25,990
Can I be heard, please? Yes. Well, happy belated Memorial

779
01:24:26,075 --> 01:24:27,870
Day to everyone. I hope you all had a great

780
01:24:28,275 --> 01:24:32,794
weekend. And it was very nice. Shout out to general

781
01:24:33,199 --> 01:24:36,574
services for getting all the parks. In the grass, cut

782
01:24:36,979 --> 01:24:39,654
around so everyone can enjoy the families and enjoy their

783
01:24:40,059 --> 01:24:44,548
outing. Also, I want to say. Council members. Before you

784
01:24:44,593 --> 01:24:49,255
run up there to Mackinal, you better remember that. The

785
01:24:49,300 --> 01:24:51,895
voters. We elected you to vote for us and not

786
01:24:51,980 --> 01:24:55,095
for them. Those corporate donors don't. Pay your pocket. Those

787
01:24:55,380 --> 01:24:57,295
corporate donors are not going to look out for you

788
01:24:57,620 --> 01:25:02,057
when you are. In trouble of your election, especially. They're

789
01:25:02,062 --> 01:25:05,017
not going to be endorsing you from your policy decision

790
01:25:05,702 --> 01:25:10,636
that has harmed this community. I take offense. And I

791
01:25:10,961 --> 01:25:13,756
rarely take fit to God's people. But the city council

792
01:25:14,121 --> 01:25:18,171
members. That pushed us out, displaced us. Shut up our

793
01:25:18,256 --> 01:25:21,771
waters wouldn't fight back for our civil rights, our justice

794
01:25:22,056 --> 01:25:24,771
and our democracy. The charter as we know it. That

795
01:25:24,816 --> 01:25:29,717
was in 2018. Has not been enacted. And we tried

796
01:25:30,042 --> 01:25:33,037
the best we knew how. No matter what happened, we

797
01:25:33,082 --> 01:25:36,277
still are a city in Shambury until our government gets

798
01:25:36,682 --> 01:25:39,397
together. So the people come together at two. Woodward Avenue

799
01:25:40,002 --> 01:25:42,757
attendees black people in Detroit to leaving vote it was

800
01:25:42,842 --> 01:25:48,923
43%. Less than the asthma spurnout. 235,000 votes, but it

801
01:25:49,168 --> 01:25:53,388
should be 700,000. People in the city of Detroit. That

802
01:25:53,433 --> 01:25:55,628
should be able to have a voice. It should be

803
01:25:55,673 --> 01:25:59,668
able to elect their leadership without any state intervention or

804
01:26:00,033 --> 01:26:02,828
management. We are a self governing city where we should

805
01:26:02,833 --> 01:26:07,188
be autonomous of our own decision. Public Act 436 still

806
01:26:07,473 --> 01:26:09,708
is the law of the book. And Governor Karen Whipper

807
01:26:09,793 --> 01:26:12,028
still won't get rid of that law. So before we

808
01:26:12,033 --> 01:26:16,140
go off, you better. Hope that public Act 436 tell

809
01:26:16,225 --> 01:26:19,260
her take the damn chains off of our neck. We

810
01:26:19,305 --> 01:26:21,420
could cover our own self. If the city is out

811
01:26:21,505 --> 01:26:24,220
of bankruptcy and we're able to manage. Our own decisions,

812
01:26:24,505 --> 01:26:27,260
then the state should be able to step off. Thank

813
01:26:27,665 --> 01:26:32,625
you. Let's call it, please. So this is our last

814
01:26:32,990 --> 01:26:36,185
caller who didn't respond before. This is call in user

815
01:26:36,510 --> 01:26:38,345

They will be placed onto public record and that now

822
01:27:03,982 --> 01:27:11,769
closes out. Our public comments section. All right. Clerk understanding

taxes. So we're not collecting any taxes. From MHT. Why

861
01:29:51,216 --> 01:29:55,638
are we doing that? Get someone from the department, Ms.

01:29:55,683 --> 01:29:59,583
Newell. And then I need to know whether or not

863
01:29:59,988 --> 01:30:04,849
Mht. Is for profit or nonprofit. We'll make sure we

864
01:30:04,894 --> 01:30:07,209
get someone over to get those questions. For you answered.

865
01:30:07,454 --> 01:30:11,462
Thank you. Good morning to you. How are you? Good

866
01:30:11,787 --> 01:30:19,918
morning. Affairs coordinator. We don't have anyone online. From the

867
01:30:20,003 --> 01:30:25,333
assessor's office. However, we do have someone online from. MHT.

868
01:30:25,778 --> 01:30:28,893
But apparently your questions are more to the assessor's office,

869
01:30:29,218 --> 01:30:32,272
so I will. Work in the background. To get someone

870
01:30:32,437 --> 01:30:35,822
online. If we could postpone this to the NBA agenda.

871
01:30:36,898 --> 01:30:39,213
Thank you, Mr. Chair. And I just would like to

872
01:30:39,578 --> 01:30:42,213
know, for pilots, and we see many of them come,

873
01:30:42,298 --> 01:30:45,773
particularly through the budget finance audit standing committee. Many of

874
01:30:45,778 --> 01:30:50,253
the pilots go to projects that are being rehabbed for

875
01:30:50,938 --> 01:31:00,207
senior building. As well. As projects that are 100% low

876
01:31:00,612 --> 01:31:05,527
income housing tax credit litech that receive vouchers 100% affordability,

877
01:31:06,252 --> 01:31:09,007
and so I don't know if that helps provide any

878
01:31:09,412 --> 01:31:12,927
context relative to these pilots that we see, but most

879
01:31:12,972 --> 01:31:17,499
of them are to rehab older buildings. That need much

880
01:31:17,584 --> 01:31:20,259
needed rehab. And that is why the pilot had been

881
01:31:20,624 --> 01:31:23,819
established, and I don't. Think we have seen one yet

882
01:31:24,424 --> 01:31:26,019
that has come in front of us that wasn't. Close

883
01:31:26,344 --> 01:31:29,379
to 100% affordable. If that helps, though, through you, Mr.

884
01:31:29,464 --> 01:31:33,397
President. Thank you. Any further, or would you still like

885
01:31:33,682 --> 01:31:38,866
for the department? Thank you. But their request to bring

886
01:31:38,911 --> 01:31:41,866

that we also have an item similar to this in

929
01:35:35,760 --> 01:35:39,297

930
01:35:39,542 --> 01:35:44,798

01:35:44,843 --> 01:35:51,296

01:36:01,545 --> 01:36:04,180

01:36:04,265 --> 01:36:08,556
at the resolve and we've forced, resolved. From the bottom.

937
01:36:09,846 --> 01:36:13,394
This talks about. Three members from the Health Sciences Research

938
01:36:13,839 --> 01:36:17,096
center is number one. Who is that? And then the

939
01:36:17,701 --> 01:36:21,330
board of plaintiffs should represent a broad range. Of community.

940
01:36:23,573 --> 01:36:25,848
Local community, with an emphasis on individuals who have a

941
01:36:25,853 --> 01:36:30,048
background in healthcare and public health, such as who is

942
01:36:30,093 --> 01:36:32,768
going to enforce that and make sure that that is

943
01:36:32,813 --> 01:36:40,502
actually implemented. Is that two member waters? Yes. Member waters.

944
01:36:42,850 --> 01:36:49,761
The board. Certainly my goal was to make sure that.

945
01:36:55,281 --> 01:37:00,439
The nine member board would reflect. Ethnic and racial minority.

946
01:37:01,868 --> 01:37:07,797
Along with senior citizens. That's the goal. Which is why

947
01:37:08,122 --> 01:37:13,454
we put some additional language in there. Who is the

948
01:37:13,459 --> 01:37:17,574
health sciences Research Center? MSU. Yes, that's MSU. Okay, thank

949
01:37:17,619 --> 01:37:24,768

961
01:38:38,012 --> 01:38:43,767
Callaway five resolution. Mcalloway. My name is 18.1 through 18.4.

962
01:38:44,572 --> 01:38:48,535
Thank you. Thank you. Mr. Chair. I'd like to take

963
01:38:49,260 --> 01:38:53,455
each one separately. Line item 18.1 is regarding. The management

964
01:38:53,740 --> 01:38:58,676
of cemetery operations. We did have someone here. Who expressed

965
01:38:59,521 --> 01:39:03,436
some concerns about the awarding of the contract, and it

966
01:39:03,481 --> 01:39:06,636
doesn't sound like her. Concerns have been addressed. I would

967
01:39:06,681 --> 01:39:09,981
not want to move this forward. So if possible, we

968
01:39:09,986 --> 01:39:12,741
can bring this back in a week, and hopefully she'll

969
01:39:12,986 --> 01:39:15,261
have an opportunity to reach out to GSD and get

970
01:39:15,546 --> 01:39:19,461
some of her concerns or contracts and procurement rather. Get

971
01:39:19,546 --> 01:39:25,074
her. Concerns addressed. That's line item 18.1, so I can

972
01:39:25,439 --> 01:39:30,521
make the motion. Discussion. Discussion. So there is a discussion,

973
01:39:30,846 --> 01:39:40,471
Mr. Whitaker. Mr. President. Yes, sir. It sounds

974
01:39:40,916 --> 01:39:47,138
as if. The young lady has filed. A protest against

975
01:39:47,583 --> 01:39:50,698
this contract. And I think you need to hear from

976
01:39:51,103 --> 01:39:55,753
procurement to find out whether or not. She's exhausted. That

977
01:39:56,558 --> 01:40:01,749
her challenge to the contract through their procedure. Your rules

978
01:40:02,074 --> 01:40:06,589
allow for her to petition counsel if she's not successful

979
01:40:06,634 --> 01:40:10,962
in that regard. So I think before you entertain this

980
01:40:11,367 --> 01:40:16,230
contract or. Her petition. You should hear from procurement to

981
01:40:16,595 --> 01:40:19,998
find out where she is in their process. I was

982
01:40:20,003 --> 01:40:21,998
going to be definitely recommendation because I wasn't aware of

983
01:40:22,323 --> 01:40:25,650
the formal protest. It has not been top, but I

984

that she responded to the repote already. No, I think

1039
01:45:06,324 --> 01:45:09,479

1059
01:46:37,118 --> 01:46:41,820
went through the assessor's office with Avenge last week. Definitely

1060
01:46:41,905 --> 01:46:44,980

1062
01:46:51,205 --> 01:46:53,760

1063
01:46:54,205 --> 01:46:57,600
Thank you. Thank you, Mr. Chair. And Mr. Porn. I'm

1064
01:46:57,645 --> 01:47:02,706
looking at the resolution and I'm. Looking at. Your memorandum

1065
01:47:03,031 --> 01:47:08,052
regarding this project. And. Is your opinion, according to this

1066
01:47:08,417 --> 01:47:13,214
document? This mht who's building all over the city. Cannot

1067
01:47:13,539 --> 01:47:15,814
afford this to do. Cannot afford to do this project

1068
01:47:16,219 --> 01:47:23,051
without getting. This tax exemption. Asserted chair. I don't have

1069
01:47:23,096 --> 01:47:25,451
the particular memorandum in front of me, but I am

1070
01:47:25,776 --> 01:47:34,617
familiar with. This particular project. They submitted a request for

1071
01:47:34,902 --> 01:47:38,137
pilot. Pilot, which is payment in lieu of taxes, is

1072
01:47:38,502 --> 01:47:45,755
designed to help. Developers to encourage developers build. Or rehabilitate

1073
01:47:45,800 --> 01:47:50,202
properties in areas that. Are economically feasible in many cases.

1074
01:47:51,197 --> 01:47:53,872
They supplied all the information that was required under the

1075
01:47:53,917 --> 01:47:58,355
pilot statute. It was reviewed by staff. It met all

1076
01:47:58,680 --> 01:48:04,605
of the criteria. To be approved. Could it have been

1077
01:48:04,650 --> 01:48:07,325
done without a pilot? That's not for the assessor's. Office

1078
01:48:07,730 --> 01:48:12,564
to say. We simply review the information that's provided to

1079
01:48:12,609 --> 01:48:16,524
us to make the determination. Do they qualify? Under the

1080
01:48:16,809 --> 01:48:20,349
pilot statute. Thank you, ma'am. Thank you for the question.

1081
01:48:20,754 --> 01:48:27,267
Now. Thank you. Through the chair. Thank you, sir. I'm

1082
01:48:27,352 --> 01:48:34,129
always concerned about. Do you know whether or not MH

1083
01:48:34,214 --> 01:48:36,049
through the chair. Do you know whether or not MHt

1084
01:48:36,494 --> 01:48:41,075
is a for profit or nonprofit developer. Through the chair.

1085
01:48:41,360 --> 01:48:47,448
I believe they have both types of. Properties in their

1086
01:48:48,293 --> 01:48:53,688
portfolio. They have both nonprofits and they, outside Detroit have

1087
01:48:54,293 --> 01:48:57,828
for profit developments. Thank you, Mr. Chair. Thank you, Mr.

and considered red. Here are no objection. Discussion with discussion.

1141
01:52:56,916 --> 01:53:00,274
Member Benson. All right. Thank you. So I just got

1142
01:53:00,319 --> 01:53:02,194
to express my concern and hope that we can have

1143
01:53:02,519 --> 01:53:06,320
some additional conversations. Because in the current format, I would

1144
01:53:06,405 --> 01:53:08,120
have to be a no. But I think there may

1145
01:53:08,165 --> 01:53:11,720
be ways to actually get this across the finish line.

1146
01:53:12,887 --> 01:53:17,122
And my biggest concern is to open up the ordinance

1147
01:53:17,167 --> 01:53:22,041
to non Detroit. And I really believe that we really

1148
01:53:22,086 --> 01:53:25,601
want to recognize one person. And so my concern is

1149
01:53:25,926 --> 01:53:28,721
that one person would be recognized. But now we've opened

1150
01:53:28,726 --> 01:53:34,146
it up for. Others. Not just for this body, but

1151
01:53:34,511 --> 01:53:38,575
in perpetuity. Unless something changed again. And so I would

1152
01:53:38,620 --> 01:53:40,855
just like to see if there is an openness to

1153
01:53:41,220 --> 01:53:43,895
bringing this back. In a week so we can have

1154
01:53:44,140 --> 01:53:47,455
some additional conversations about some ideas I may have to

1155
01:53:47,820 --> 01:53:51,955
get. To where you want to go. And off grade

1156
01:53:51,960 --> 01:53:57,211
level protection. To what I believe. Is a reward that

1157
01:53:57,256 --> 01:54:00,863
really should be dedicated and committed to Detroit. If I

1158
01:54:00,868 --> 01:54:04,303
can add. So I know that it came out as

1159
01:54:04,668 --> 01:54:07,943
a request for an individual that whose name was in

1160
01:54:08,188 --> 01:54:13,184
the queue for some time and. It didn't fit the

1161
01:54:13,509 --> 01:54:15,864
rules. But I will say that there are other individuals

1162
01:54:16,109 --> 01:54:20,058
that have approached me. There's one in particular. This mom

1163
01:54:20,423 --> 01:54:23,778
has been fighting very hard. Her daughter visited and lived

1164
01:54:24,343 --> 01:54:26,658
in the city. Well, didn't live. That's not where her

1165
01:54:26,783 --> 01:54:29,778
address was, but unfortunately. She was killed in the city

1166
01:54:29,823 --> 01:54:31,978
of Detroit, she would be over a grandma's house pretty.

1167
01:54:32,023 --> 01:54:36,768
Much every week, multiple times. And she lived in Sterling

1168
01:54:36,853 --> 01:54:40,768
heist. That, again, was on her driver's license. But she

1169
01:54:40,773 --> 01:54:45,561
was in Detroit. All the time. She was killed, unfortunately,

1170
01:54:45,926 --> 01:54:48,281
in Detroit, and mom is looking to get a secondary

1171
01:54:48,686 --> 01:54:51,681
street. Sign on behalf of her. So again, that is

1172
01:54:52,046 --> 01:54:53,961
something that is definitely debatable, but I just wanted to

1173
01:54:54,006 --> 01:54:55,761
put it out there that it's not just one individual.

1174
01:54:57,101 --> 01:55:01,847
That. This would be considered to potentially assist, but also.

1175
01:55:02,984 --> 01:55:06,459
Others in advance and want to also indicate that in

1176
01:55:06,504 --> 01:55:08,779
order for any of these names to move, forward. We

1177
01:55:09,064 --> 01:55:11,339
talked about this in committee. There would have to be

1178
01:55:11,744 --> 01:55:14,539
still a very high threshold for that individual to move

1179
01:55:14,904 --> 01:55:19,088
forward. It would need one member in addition to three

1180
01:55:19,133 --> 01:55:22,509
others. Who would co sign and that will make them

1181
01:55:22,874 --> 01:55:26,069
only eligible at that point, but would not guarantee their

1182
01:55:26,434 --> 01:55:31,143
ability. To. Guarantee their secondary street sign, so I wanted

1183
01:55:31,188 --> 01:55:32,623
to make sure we put that out in the open.

1184
01:55:32,908 --> 01:55:34,903
To make it very clear for those who are listening.

1185
01:55:35,468 --> 01:55:37,383
Member Callaway? Yeah. Thank you. Thank you. Mr. Chair, I

1186
01:55:37,428 --> 01:55:43,190
could not support this. As well. In any form. This

1187
01:55:43,275 --> 01:55:46,787
person did not live in Detroit. He lived in Oak

1188
01:55:47,112 --> 01:55:49,427
park. He was not killed in Detroit. He was killed

1189
01:55:49,712 --> 01:55:53,518
in Highland park. And a young man was just killed

1190
01:55:53,563 --> 01:55:56,078
last week over a pair of gym shoes. Should we

1191
01:55:56,163 --> 01:55:59,758
rename? That area after him. Malice Green was killed on

1192
01:56:00,123 --> 01:56:03,238
warrant. There was a mural, is faded now. That street

1193
01:56:03,523 --> 01:56:05,438
was not renamed after him. There are a lot of

1194
01:56:05,763 --> 01:56:08,878
innocent people killed in this city. Who were residents of

1195
01:56:08,883 --> 01:56:13,010
this city. Whose parents or loved ones or guardians would

1196
01:56:13,335 --> 01:56:15,130
want a street named after them. And I think if

1197
01:56:15,175 --> 01:56:17,890
we make this decision, which I'm not going to support,

1198
01:56:18,575 --> 01:56:22,610
we open up a floodgate. People who visited NFL draft.

1199
01:56:22,935 --> 01:56:26,036
What if they were killed here? It didn't happen. We

1200
01:56:26,121 --> 01:56:28,476
just would open up the floodgate for all people to

1201
01:56:28,721 --> 01:56:31,036
come in, then we're. Opening up ourselves to potential liability

1202
01:56:31,401 --> 01:56:33,316
or mean lawsuit. Well, you did it for this person.

1203
01:56:34,438 --> 01:56:37,089
You didn't do it for me. I just think we

1204
01:56:37,134 --> 01:56:39,929
have our ordinance. I don't think it should be amended.

1205
01:56:41,015 --> 01:56:43,770
To in this regard for this particular case. So I

1206
01:56:43,815 --> 01:56:47,210
cannot support this. And again, people are killed. In this

1207
01:56:47,255 --> 01:56:50,330
city every day. And we can't start. My opinion. Start

1208
01:56:50,735 --> 01:56:55,209
renamed. My brother was. Killed. In a drunken car accident

1209
01:56:55,534 --> 01:56:57,929
in 2000 and 943 years old. I didn't ask for

1210
01:56:57,934 --> 01:56:59,729
that street to be named after him. He grew up

1211
01:57:00,094 --> 01:57:04,129
in this city. Drunken driver killed my brother. Joe Whitfield

1212
01:57:04,494 --> 01:57:07,987
II. That was never even a thought of mine. We

1213
01:57:08,272 --> 01:57:10,187
went out there and put flowers that are now gone.

1214
01:57:11,366 --> 01:57:12,881
And I just think for us to get into the

1215
01:57:12,926 --> 01:57:17,277
business of renaming streets, because. Mr. Chimp was even killed

1216
01:57:17,282 --> 01:57:21,653
here. So he should go to his family or loved

1217
01:57:21,618 --> 01:57:23,613
ones should go to Highland park and ask Highland park

1218
01:57:23,898 --> 01:57:26,653
officials to name that street after him or Oak park,

1219
01:57:26,938 --> 01:57:28,893
where he lives, and that's my opinion. Thank you, Mr.

1220
01:57:29,298 --> 01:57:32,293
Chair. Thank you, Mr. President. And I'm coming right to

1221
01:57:32,338 --> 01:57:34,573
you. And as the chairs, one thing we always got

1222
01:57:34,818 --> 01:57:36,293
to keep in mind is that we all have the

1223
01:57:36,658 --> 01:57:39,809
ability, whether we have someone in our family. Who passed.

1224
01:57:40,134 --> 01:57:42,849
Or we want to recognize someone brought up in committee.

1225
01:57:43,134 --> 01:57:45,129
Malice Green. No one has brought that name forward, but

1226
01:57:45,734 --> 01:57:49,489
there's nothing that precludes these individuals from being brought forward.

1227
01:57:49,814 --> 01:57:51,209
So I just want to make that very clear. We

1228
01:57:51,214 --> 01:57:53,809
have the ability to bring these names forward. It is

1229
01:57:53,854 --> 01:57:56,689
just a desire and will of this body and the

1230
01:57:56,734 --> 01:58:01,548
individual members. Members. Santiago Romero. I will yield to members

1231
01:58:01,913 --> 01:58:05,148
of who I believe also wanted to share. Thank you.

1232
01:58:07,847 --> 01:58:12,795
Durham. Thank you, Mr. I know you used to say

1233
01:58:12,880 --> 01:58:19,071
a member vice chair. No. But to that point, I

1234
01:58:19,076 --> 01:58:20,671
just wanted to just take the opportunity to speak on

1235
01:58:20,956 --> 01:58:24,991
this. I initially had some consternation. With this ordinance at

1236
01:58:25,036 --> 01:58:28,729
first because I did worry about. The protections when we

1237
01:58:28,774 --> 01:58:35,039
talk about. Secondary street signs. What our historical presence or

1238
01:58:35,364 --> 01:58:38,119
the contributions of those folks who were historical and made

1239
01:58:38,204 --> 01:58:40,879
an impact on the city of Detroit would be and

1240
01:58:41,204 --> 01:58:44,679
how they would be remembered and to ensure that floodgates

1241
01:58:44,764 --> 01:58:48,159
weren't open, so just anyone could come in. But I

1242
01:58:48,204 --> 01:58:51,479
also think that as I have looked at the ordinance

1243
01:58:51,724 --> 01:58:54,922
and the protections that have been placed. In there. Has

1244
01:58:54,927 --> 01:58:59,460
not been. A couple of ordinances that have come in

1245
01:58:59,505 --> 01:59:02,860
front of us, but there has not been more. Contention

1246
01:59:02,905 --> 01:59:06,377
or disagreement most of the time from this council. Until

1247
01:59:06,782 --> 01:59:08,617
these type of street signs have come. We put the

1248
01:59:08,662 --> 01:59:11,017
ballots out. We're here three. Or four or five times

1249
01:59:11,382 --> 01:59:14,497
going back and forth, because that is the process. And

1250
01:59:14,782 --> 01:59:17,457
then we ultimately come into a resolution. What made me

1251
01:59:17,542 --> 01:59:20,657
comfortable with this ordinance was it does not seem that

1252
01:59:20,942 --> 01:59:23,257
the floodgates are going to be open because you have

1253
01:59:23,302 --> 01:59:25,897
to have one council member to sponsor. It, then three

1254
01:59:26,222 --> 01:59:29,574
additional coun. Council members to co sign on that. And

1255
01:59:29,619 --> 01:59:32,654
so I think that provides a level of protection and

1256
01:59:32,979 --> 01:59:36,094
added protection. And I also will note this, because I

1257
01:59:36,139 --> 01:59:38,494
get where folks are going. This is a sensitive issue.

1258
01:59:39,179 --> 01:59:41,174
But I also don't want to negate the fact that

1259
01:59:41,819 --> 01:59:44,694
there are individuals throughout the entire United States of America

1260
01:59:44,979 --> 01:59:47,978
that have made significant contributions to. The city of Detroit.

1261
01:59:48,343 --> 01:59:51,058
Whether they were killed here or whether they were not,

1262
01:59:51,423 --> 01:59:54,498
Malcolm X was not. Killed here. And there's a street

1263
01:59:54,543 --> 01:59:58,498
sign, first, not secondary, named after him, Martin Luther king.

1264
01:59:58,903 --> 02:00:02,498
Same thing. Many of the folks who receive street signs,

1265
02:00:02,783 --> 02:00:05,458
by the way, have helped found it here. But it

1266
02:00:05,463 --> 02:00:08,725
is arguable to even african. Americans that their contribution to

1267
02:00:08,930 --> 02:00:11,805
the african american community was significant enough for us to

1268
02:00:12,050 --> 02:00:14,725
even keep the names on those street signs. So I

1269
02:00:14,730 --> 02:00:17,405
do believe it is a case by case basis. I

1270
02:00:17,410 --> 02:00:20,565
do. Believe that in this ordinance, it has provided protections

1271
02:00:20,930 --> 02:00:23,645
for folks to say, hey, if four council members can

1272
02:00:23,650 --> 02:00:27,085
say this person made a significant contribution to our city.

1273
02:00:27,325 --> 02:00:29,400
They can move forward in the process, and then the

1274
02:00:29,445 --> 02:00:32,320
ultimate protection for any ordinance that comes in. Front of

1275
02:00:32,645 --> 02:00:35,200
us is that it has to be passed by a

1276
02:00:35,245 --> 02:00:38,240
majority of folks who are sitting at that table. I

1277
02:00:38,245 --> 02:00:41,040
don't know how many more or additional protections that we

1278
02:00:41,045 --> 02:00:44,920
will need. Relative to this ordinance. And so that's why

1279
02:00:45,285 --> 02:00:47,200
I am very supportive of this wardace. I want to

1280
02:00:47,205 --> 02:00:50,926
be. Vocal. I was in disagreement of the ordinance. And

1281
02:00:50,971 --> 02:00:54,126
two members. Santiago Romero. Romero's team. They went back. They

1282
02:00:54,411 --> 02:00:57,606
put teeth in this ordinance. To ensure that anyone can

1283
02:00:57,651 --> 02:01:00,246
just not come here and get a secondary street sign

1284
02:01:00,651 --> 02:01:03,406
named in the city of Detroit and that the council

1285
02:01:04,251 --> 02:01:07,768
also. Will always have a say so if this ordinance

1286
02:01:08,093 --> 02:01:10,808
is passed. And so, Mr. President, that is my two

1287
02:01:11,093 --> 02:01:13,048
cent. And I wanted to express that because I was

1288
02:01:13,373 --> 02:01:16,888
at the same place at first as well for secondary

1289
02:01:16,933 --> 02:01:19,608
street signs, but I do think it is important to

1290
02:01:19,653 --> 02:01:22,288
notice that those protections I believe have been provided. Thank

1291
02:01:22,293 --> 02:01:26,616
you, Mr. President. Thank you. Members, Santiago Grove Mayor thank

1292
02:01:26,661 --> 02:01:28,576
you, Mr. President. I would be happy to bring this

1293
02:01:28,821 --> 02:01:31,136
back in one. Week for us to figure out a

1294
02:01:31,461 --> 02:01:34,096
solution. As I mentioned from the very beginning, I am

1295
02:01:34,181 --> 02:01:36,496
simply doing this because I was told to do so

1296
02:01:37,061 --> 02:01:39,056
in order for us to give Vincent Shin the honor

1297
02:01:39,061 --> 02:01:42,576
that he so rightfully deserves. Further record, Vincent Shin was

1298
02:01:42,901 --> 02:01:45,256
killed in the city of Detroit. And for the record,

1299
02:01:45,561 --> 02:01:47,556
This is not me asking just because someone got killed

1300
02:01:48,161 --> 02:01:50,476
in the city to give him a secondary. Street name.

1301
02:01:50,801 --> 02:01:52,796
My uncle was shot and killed at 17 years old

1302
02:01:53,321 --> 02:01:54,916
in the city of Detroit, and I am not sitting

1303
02:01:54,961 --> 02:01:57,556
here asking for a secondary street saying. I am asking

1304
02:01:57,921 --> 02:02:00,716
that we give Vincent Chin, who helped spark the asian

1305
02:02:01,001 --> 02:02:05,944
american citizens for Justin's movements across the country. To give

1306
02:02:05,989 --> 02:02:08,624
him his fair share for the work that he did

1307
02:02:08,669 --> 02:02:10,744
here in the city, for the work that has continued

1308
02:02:10,749 --> 02:02:12,784
to be done here in the city, I think it's

1309
02:02:12,829 --> 02:02:17,901
incredibly disrespectful and dismissive to. Simply boil this down to

1310
02:02:18,226 --> 02:02:21,301
opening of the floodgates when myself and my team has

1311
02:02:21,346 --> 02:02:24,141
been working so incredibly hard to be able to follow

1312
02:02:24,506 --> 02:02:27,981
the guidance given to us by the historical board. Designation

1313
02:02:28,026 --> 02:02:31,021
by our pro thms office, by our colleagues, to be

1314
02:02:31,026 --> 02:02:34,981
able to give Vincent again a rightful recognition that he

1315
02:02:35,026 --> 02:02:37,434
deserves. So I hope that. We bring this back in

1316
02:02:37,479 --> 02:02:40,194
one week, that we figure out a way to give

1317
02:02:40,559 --> 02:02:44,114
him the recognition. That he deserves, because this is not

1318
02:02:44,159 --> 02:02:47,234
simply giving someone. And I understand there are many people

1319
02:02:47,279 --> 02:02:51,714
that born, die here who are worthy of recognition. But

1320
02:02:52,039 --> 02:02:54,274
this is not me asking for myself. This is. Something

1321
02:02:54,319 --> 02:02:57,244
that has been asked of us by community. Who is

1322
02:02:57,289 --> 02:03:00,644
working so tirelessly to give Pranie's American the recognition that

1323
02:03:00,689 --> 02:03:02,564
they deserve here in the city of Detroit. Thank you,

1324
02:03:02,609 --> 02:03:06,741
Mr. President. Thank you, colleagues. It appears that the sponsor.

1325
02:03:09,641 --> 02:03:12,556
Of the amendment has asked for it to be postponed

1326
02:03:12,881 --> 02:03:15,996
for one week before we go there. Member John. Thank

1327
02:03:16,041 --> 02:03:21,417
you, Mr. President. I believe last week. I raised some

1328
02:03:21,422 --> 02:03:25,303
of the same concerns that member Benson articulated today. And

1329
02:03:25,628 --> 02:03:30,924
members Santiago Romero did. Support a one week postponement in

1330
02:03:30,969 --> 02:03:34,484
order for some additional discussion to be had to ensure

1331
02:03:34,569 --> 02:03:38,044
that the individual that she was returning to would be

1332
02:03:38,089 --> 02:03:43,324
able to be supported with an exemption similar to an

1333
02:03:43,689 --> 02:03:48,768
individual who. Is still living. I'm interested in understanding what

1334
02:03:48,853 --> 02:03:54,437
discussions took place. Since last week's postponement. That would have

1335
02:03:54,922 --> 02:04:01,530
considered. Still allowing. The request that member Santiago Romero was

1336
02:04:01,575 --> 02:04:06,026
interested in. But retaining the city of Detroit residency and

1337
02:04:06,351 --> 02:04:12,184
allowing for an exemption if this body so chooses. Again

1338
02:04:12,309 --> 02:04:15,682
without getting bogged down. I guess the question really is

1339
02:04:15,687 --> 02:04:17,802
not for the law department. It's more so with member

1340
02:04:17,847 --> 02:04:23,183
Santa Romero's office member Santa Romero? How would you like

1341
02:04:23,228 --> 02:04:26,864
to proceed? I guess. That's where we have to come

1342
02:04:27,229 --> 02:04:31,278
down to. So, Mr. President, we did have a discussion.

1343
02:04:31,563 --> 02:04:33,438
If we can turn it over to attorney Anderson to

1344
02:04:33,803 --> 02:04:37,098
discuss. Through the chair. Graham Anderson, law department. Good morning,

1345
02:04:37,543 --> 02:04:42,351
everyone. Through the chair to council member Johnson. We did

1346
02:04:42,676 --> 02:04:45,968
have a discussion. Last week. I believe it was Thursday.

1347
02:04:47,456 --> 02:04:49,811
Among a few different council member teams as well as

1348
02:04:50,456 --> 02:04:56,050
the historic society. And one suggestion, actually, that I think

1349
02:04:56,455 --> 02:04:59,970
I actually heard today that I think might best address

1350
02:05:00,335 --> 02:05:01,810
this. Question. No. You don't like it? Not prepared to

1351
02:05:02,055 --> 02:05:05,170
discuss that public talk to the fair. Thank you, council

1352
02:05:05,215 --> 02:05:09,846
member, but. Through the chair. Lost my train of thought.

1353
02:05:13,599 --> 02:05:20,811
Yes. But the discussions we had. We did not really

1354
02:05:21,216 --> 02:05:27,033
settle on. A concrete amendment to the ordinance that would

1355
02:05:27,078 --> 02:05:31,672
change it to best address your question. We seem to

1356
02:05:31,717 --> 02:05:36,568
just come out of the meeting. In agreement. But if

1357
02:05:36,893 --> 02:05:39,648
there's any changes that we would like the law department

1358
02:05:39,733 --> 02:05:44,721
to make, I'm happy to make those amendments. Depending. On

1359
02:05:44,766 --> 02:05:48,716
the severity of significance of the changes. We need another

1360
02:05:48,841 --> 02:05:51,812
public hearing. But at this time, I'm happy to address

1361
02:05:52,177 --> 02:05:56,012
any explicit questions for explicit changes to the language of

1362
02:05:56,057 --> 02:06:00,661
the ordinance. Thank you, Mr. President. I am going to

1363
02:06:00,986 --> 02:06:03,381
encourage anyone and everyone. If you have language to please

1364
02:06:03,666 --> 02:06:05,901
share it with us. My team has met with your

1365
02:06:05,986 --> 02:06:10,454
office. And we just haven't had the language. It's language

1366
02:06:10,699 --> 02:06:12,694
that's missing and as I mentioned from the very beginning,

1367
02:06:13,299 --> 02:06:15,254
I am doing this process because I was asked to

1368
02:06:15,259 --> 02:06:17,414
do so if it was up to me, we would

1369
02:06:17,779 --> 02:06:19,614
support Vincent Chin with the votes that we have. And

1370
02:06:19,659 --> 02:06:22,134
move on and not change the ordinance at all. But

1371
02:06:22,219 --> 02:06:25,270
I am doing what I'm being asked to do. To

1372
02:06:25,595 --> 02:06:28,390
follow process. So I asked anyone, if you do have

1373
02:06:28,715 --> 02:06:31,470
language suggestions, Mr. Benson. Thank you. That you let us

1374
02:06:31,515 --> 02:06:35,630
know. Because, frankly, I don't want to open up any

1375
02:06:35,955 --> 02:06:39,070
floodgates. I'm not trying to. Make things complicated, but I

1376
02:06:39,075 --> 02:06:41,350
also don't know the language that folks would be comfortable

1377
02:06:41,395 --> 02:06:44,350
with. So if anyone can think of something from now

1378
02:06:44,435 --> 02:06:46,710
until next week, we can work on that. Thank you.

1379
02:06:49,164 --> 02:06:53,125
Thank you. The ordinance was placed on order of third

1380
02:06:53,490 --> 02:07:02,734
reading colleagues. Any objection? Objection? Point of order. My understanding

1381
02:07:03,459 --> 02:07:06,254
is an ear hustle was that we would need to

1382
02:07:06,579 --> 02:07:08,774
deny the third reading. Then make the motion. Or can

1383
02:07:08,819 --> 02:07:16,563
we make the motion? Go back. No. If you object,

1384
02:07:16,928 --> 02:07:23,075
you can object. I encourage the bring back for a

1385
02:07:23,080 --> 02:07:32,146
week. That's my suggestion. Okay. Objection. Member Johnson.

1386
02:08:17,056 --> 02:08:20,331
Right now you're saying objections are not necessary at this

1387
02:08:20,656 --> 02:08:22,851
point because we've already. Gone to the order of third

1388
02:08:23,256 --> 02:08:30,473
reading. Okay, so we've already done.

1389
02:08:36,654 --> 02:08:39,959
Member Durhall. Already moved it. We need to vote on

1390
02:08:39,964 --> 02:08:43,479
it. Hold on 1 second. The order of third reading.

1391
02:08:44,492 --> 02:08:46,367
So we wanted to postpone the vote for one week.

1392
02:08:46,452 --> 02:08:48,647
What would be that motion? What would happen next.

1393
02:09:08,443 --> 02:09:15,652
If. The motion for approval of. Motion for third reading

1394
02:09:16,017 --> 02:09:20,221
fails. What is the next. That will be going back

1395
02:09:20,506 --> 02:09:23,701
to my suggestion that we not take that vote in

1396
02:09:23,746 --> 02:09:26,701
that we move. I support it when we bring back.

1397
02:09:27,066 --> 02:09:29,021
Now we go to the one we bring back first.

1398
02:09:31,788 --> 02:09:34,103
So bring it back and have the third reading next

1399
02:09:34,188 --> 02:09:40,386
time. That's easy. I'd rather not. Vote no when we're

1400
02:09:40,391 --> 02:09:46,259
trying to find a solution. Mr president. Member Durho. Thank

1401
02:09:46,264 --> 02:09:52,580
you, Mr. Chair. I just wanted to clarify. The motion

1402
02:09:52,865 --> 02:09:55,100
was to place it on third reading. There was no

1403
02:09:55,185 --> 02:09:57,420
motion. To pass it as submitted. So there's no need

1404
02:09:57,745 --> 02:09:59,620
for the record roll call vote, because there was no

1405
02:09:59,865 --> 02:10:02,980
motion made to pass it as submitted. What the parliamentarian

1406
02:10:03,065 --> 02:10:05,180
is stating is that you can still place it on

1407
02:10:05,225 --> 02:10:07,620
third reading, which is procedural, so when we come back.

1408
02:10:09,081 --> 02:10:12,119
After. It's postponed because we still can make the motion

1409
02:10:12,404 --> 02:10:15,119
for a postponement because we're in discussion. Then we'll come

1410
02:10:15,164 --> 02:10:17,359
back next week. And then the only motions that are

1411
02:10:17,604 --> 02:10:19,799
needed to be made is to pass the ordinance as

1412
02:10:19,884 --> 02:10:23,839
submitted, because it's already been placed on third reading through

1413
02:10:23,924 --> 02:10:27,828
the chair. Sorry. I'd agree that makes things more fluid

1414
02:10:28,153 --> 02:10:30,428
for next week. However, I do see your point. Comps

1415
02:10:30,713 --> 02:10:34,525
member Benson. I believe that that motion may fail is

1416
02:10:34,610 --> 02:10:39,445
why I'm suggesting that we bring that back. In one

1417
02:10:39,850 --> 02:10:44,108
week. So let me just ask this question, saying it

1418
02:10:44,153 --> 02:10:46,828
seems like there's a desire to bring back in one

1419
02:10:46,873 --> 02:10:49,796
week at least. To postpone the vote for one week.

1420
02:10:51,391 --> 02:10:54,159
How do we get there from here? Because it sounds

1421
02:10:54,244 --> 02:10:56,519
like we're already here. Through the chair. It's already been

1422
02:10:56,604 --> 02:10:58,759
moved. To the order of third reading through the chair.

1423
02:10:59,044 --> 02:11:01,359
I believe there is no problem with us moving. For

1424
02:11:01,404 --> 02:11:03,959
a one week bring back now and we will have

1425
02:11:04,044 --> 02:11:09,845
that vote next week. I greatly appreciate what parliamentarian was

1426
02:11:10,250 --> 02:11:13,685
arguing. But we may as well move it at this

1427
02:11:13,730 --> 02:11:16,365
point for a one week bring back. Thank you. Thank

1428
02:11:16,370 --> 02:11:19,778
you so much. Is there a motion? Thank you, Mr.

1429
02:11:19,823 --> 02:11:22,538

1475
02:15:47,381 --> 02:15:52,773
you, president. Mr. President, permit. This is on the agenda

1476
02:15:53,098 --> 02:15:55,693
and just wanted to clarify. We heard from CPC, it

1477
02:15:55,738 --> 02:15:58,093
is stated on the agenda as a resolution of authorization.

1478
02:15:58,458 --> 02:16:02,261
But just noting again that. This is supposed to be

1479
02:16:02,626 --> 02:16:06,181
an ordinance, and so just wanted a level of clarity.

1480
02:16:06,266 --> 02:16:08,101
I know, Mr. Todd has popped up on the screen

1481
02:16:08,506 --> 02:16:15,738
as well. Do you have the introduction language? I do.

1482
02:16:17,127 --> 02:16:19,482
Okay. Actually, I do not. Pardon or no, I do.

1483
02:16:19,847 --> 02:16:22,282
Pardon me, president. Mr. President, I do. Okay. Thank you,

1484
02:16:22,607 --> 02:16:27,354
Mr. Ty. Thank you, Mr. President. Good. Excuse me. Good

1485
02:16:27,399 --> 02:16:30,474
afternoon, city council. As it is just now noon, yes.

1486
02:16:30,839 --> 02:16:33,594
The item is, in fact an ordinance, which I believe

1487
02:16:33,999 --> 02:16:39,999
Ms. Golden noted. As opposed to being a resolution. As

1488
02:16:40,084 --> 02:16:44,522
the agenda, as the formal agenda states, That is correct,

1489
02:16:44,967 --> 02:16:49,833
Mr. President. It is a ordinance. It should have read

1490
02:16:50,358 --> 02:16:55,749
Derhall. And proposed ordinance and not a resolution. That matter

1491
02:16:56,114 --> 02:17:01,096
will be corrected. Thank you. Thank you, Mr. President. I

1492
02:17:01,101 --> 02:17:03,136
just wanted to add that for clarity, for the public

1493
02:17:03,501 --> 02:17:06,656
as well as. Everyone here. And with that, Mr. President.

1494
02:17:11,820 --> 02:17:14,575
I move that the ordinance be read twice by title,

1495
02:17:14,620 --> 02:17:18,647

Crown campaign last week on Wednesday. The 22nd, getting robust

1661
02:30:13,227 --> 02:30:16,822
feedback, looking for additional residents of the city of Detroit

1662
02:30:17,067 --> 02:30:20,982
to fill out the survey, mental health assessment survey. It's

02:30:21,027 --> 02:30:24,142
19 questions, confidential. We only want to know what zip.

1664
02:30:24,147 --> 02:30:26,045
Code. Codes you live in. Don't want to know what

1665
02:30:26,090 --> 02:30:29,285
your name is or any other information. Because that information

1666
02:30:30,010 --> 02:30:32,645
is, in fact, very sensitive, and we would like to

1667
02:30:32,690 --> 02:30:35,925
treat it as such if you are seeking the survey

1668
02:30:36,250 --> 02:30:38,756
which we hope you are. Real simple. Go to Google,

1669
02:30:39,161 --> 02:30:42,596
type in protect your crown. Detroit makes it real easy.

1671
02:30:47,401 --> 02:30:52,016
