2
00:00:13,500 --> 00:00:20,120
I call to allegiance to the flag of the United States of America, which is a very violent, religious stance.

3
00:00:20,520 --> 00:00:25,340
One nation, on the back, in the result of the liberty and justice law.

00:00:44,720 --> 00:00:44,880

16
00:00:45,120 --> 00:00:45,260

17
00:00:45,800 --> 00:00:46,200

And he opposed seeing none.

24
00:00:55,000 --> 00:00:56,080
Don't see any communication.

25
00:00:56,460 --> 00:00:58,540
So we'll move to council minutes.

26
00:01:01,460 --> 00:01:01,740
Excuse me.

27
00:01:01,920 --> 00:01:02,160

28
00:01:02,160 --> 00:01:07,180
I'd like to make a motion to prove this in the council minutes from September 8, 2026.

33
00:01:15,320 --> 00:01:17,880
We'll now move to administration reports and communications.

34
00:01:18,360 --> 00:01:22,160
I think council president could evening members of council on those joining us.

35
00:01:22,740 --> 00:01:24,680
A couple of thank yous to start off with.

36
00:01:24,820 --> 00:01:31,360
I'd like to thank the short cultural center board and volunteers as well as the downtown Euclid Improvement Corporation.

37
00:01:31,360 --> 00:01:37,900
board and volunteers and the sponsors for putting on two successful events this past Saturday.

38
00:01:38,380 --> 00:01:41,900
I hope you all had a chance to join the Art Walk and the Steam Fest.

39
00:01:42,820 --> 00:01:49,220
Good, even despite the rain, I think they moved inside both inside and outside and had a successful

40
00:01:49,220 --> 00:01:49,580
event.

41
00:01:49,780 --> 00:01:52,380
So I want to thank everyone who helped make that happen.

42
00:01:52,540 --> 00:01:56,960
Thank you to the Heritage Park Association for inviting me to their summer fest.

43
00:01:57,120 --> 00:02:00,540

00:02:00,540 --> 00:02:06,320
And congratulations to Eucod Heat Treating, who celebrated their 80th anniversary last week.

00:02:06,520 --> 00:02:12,380
They had a couple of food trucks and different activities at their facility and offered

46
00:02:12,380 --> 00:02:12,960

47
00:02:13,140 --> 00:02:18,380
So, Director Rogan Meyers and I had a chance to tour their facility and wish them well

48
00:02:18,380 --> 00:02:19,520

49
00:02:19,640 --> 00:02:24,450
There are a wonderful Eucod story who started with one house doing heat treating and

At Skinny's Barond Rail, we will be hosting an event for Operation Lightsaber, National Rail Safety Campaign,

00:04:47,630 --> 00:04:51,290
and we again will be participating with Skinny's Barond Rail, what better location.

77
00:04:51,810 --> 00:04:58,970
To share a rail safety cards with lunch patrons helping reinforce safe habits and strengthen community engagement around rail grade

78
00:04:58,970 --> 00:05:04,690
safety and crossing awareness, it is an important topic. There are a lot of people who are needlessly

79
00:05:05,730 --> 00:05:14,770
killed every year at these crossings, many taking unnecessary risks in trying to beat trains

80
00:05:15,510 --> 00:05:20,670
and many of the times those end with very catastrophic results.

81
00:05:22,070 --> 00:05:26,270
And additionally, we'll have lunch with law enforcement, that's Wednesday, September 30th.

82

00:05:29,770 --> 00:05:33,490
I'd like to revolve our, there'll be lunch with law enforcement officers, residents.

84
00:05:33,490 --> 00:05:38,110
We'll be in a relaxed welcoming space, connect with the police officers, share concerns, and

85
00:05:38,110 --> 00:05:39,730
build stronger community relationships.

86
00:05:40,130 --> 00:05:43,790
We hope many of you will join our officers for the lunch, and that's it.

87
00:05:43,950 --> 00:05:44,190

And that completes our report this evening.

90
00:05:47,770 --> 00:05:48,550
Thank you.

91
00:05:48,950 --> 00:05:51,170
Now move on to committee documentation.

92
00:05:51,410 --> 00:05:58,310
We have documentation from the Business Development City Planning and Housing Committee from

93
00:05:58,310 --> 00:05:58,730

products and concerning smoke and shape-box, concerning smoke and vape shops.

106
00:07:20,510 --> 00:07:25,530
Was discussed, this legislation would define the terms of these shops and add them as

107
00:07:26,530 --> 00:07:29,250
and you four and you five commercial districts with

108
00:07:30,000 --> 00:07:39,560
In the city, it would also place additional regulations on where these shops would be allowed to exist. This legislation was referred back to council with no recommendation.

109
00:07:40,520 --> 00:07:46,320
Also, disgust was the structure of the building and housing department and existing processes and timelines.

Discussion include violations not being addressed on going violations.

111
00:07:50,940 --> 00:07:56,660
Community communications from building and housing to council when violations are sent in,

112
00:07:56,660 --> 00:07:58,360
adding inspectors,

113
00:07:58,680 --> 00:08:03,320
dedicating new sense inspectors to specific violations and or areas,

114
00:08:04,360 --> 00:08:08,980
and potentially getting a director for the department and a potential revision of the department.

115
00:08:09,480 --> 00:08:12,980
A Google Sheets document was requested by the building and

116

Thank you, Mr. Chairman.

124
00:08:41,760 --> 00:08:45,460
I'd like to make a motion to approve the Business Development City Planning and Housing

I'm going to buy a hyle.

130
00:08:56,100 --> 00:08:56,540

You must address counsel as a whole or administration as a whole.

137
00:09:17,020 --> 00:09:22,140
Speaking for or against a political issue or candidate is prohibited and you will be called out of order.

138
00:09:22,740 --> 00:09:27,360
Person speaking must remain calm, courteous and plated all times, you're speccing the decorum of the meeting,

139
00:09:27,820 --> 00:09:34,080
vulgar or file language and public remarks tending to embarrass or humiliate or which our personal and nature will be called out of order.

140
00:09:34,780 --> 00:09:39,360
Questions asked about legislation on the agenda will be addressed when the legislation is discussed.

00:09:39,360 --> 00:09:46,460
Pearl High revised code 121 by 32, no person shall distribute any means of printed or

Christopher Michael, the 21st, LIT, W-I-N, O-W-I-C-Z.

147
00:10:09,280 --> 00:10:13,200
Doing business in the state of Ohio is wild distribution LLC.

148
00:10:14,100 --> 00:10:22,180
Doing business in the international world of the music business is wild child for over 35 years.

149
00:10:27,560 --> 00:10:29,060
The same in exhibit, chief.

150
00:10:30,320 --> 00:10:31,440
This was your Facebook.

151
00:10:35,180 --> 00:10:38,380
Whoever's running it just bought my show.

152
00:10:38,380 --> 00:10:40,720
What's talk about it later? You got paperwork.

153
00:10:41,340 --> 00:10:42,600
Yeah, you can't work.

154
00:10:42,940 --> 00:10:43,800
Point of order, you can't.

155
00:10:43,900 --> 00:10:46,320
You have to dress either in the administration as a whole or a council

156
00:10:46,320 --> 00:10:47,200
as an individual.

157
00:10:47,800 --> 00:10:48,280
Council.

158
00:10:49,800 --> 00:10:54,440
In a whole, your police officers have a phone.

159
00:10:55,040 --> 00:10:57,660
It's really called telecommunication harassment.

160
00:10:59,100 --> 00:11:00,540
What you're going to do about it?

161
00:11:01,120 --> 00:11:04,400
How can I ask council to do something about it

162
00:11:04,400 --> 00:11:06,140
when you only have four items?

163
00:11:07,540 --> 00:11:16,760
on the agenda. It seems like that agenda don't work. When are we ever going to see the

164
00:11:16,760 --> 00:11:29,300
laws get tightened by the City Council? City Council, now you're facing someone to testify

165
00:11:29,300 --> 00:11:33,000
under oath as expertly witness.

166
00:11:37,050 --> 00:11:39,310
One council member says, I'm council.

167
00:11:42,480 --> 00:11:43,140
Now I'm

168
00:11:43,140 --> 00:11:44,680
served with disorderly conduct.

169
00:11:47,010 --> 00:11:47,630
I'm a lawyer.

170
00:11:53,900 --> 00:11:55,640
Oh yeah, I'm a lawyer. I'm about to

171
00:11:55,640 --> 00:12:01,980
get that teenager that's in the Juvi out. I just want my car. Council, you get

172
00:12:01,980 --> 00:12:07,760
robbed and now your car is illegally searched this season. Council, don't you know

173
00:12:07,760 --> 00:12:10,980
There's a robbery that always happens in Indian Hills.

174
00:12:11,600 --> 00:12:14,760
Any of those cars have to come back to the police department.

175
00:12:15,420 --> 00:12:15,960
Council,

176
00:12:21,580 --> 00:12:22,060
Council,

177
00:12:24,500 --> 00:12:25,640
someone who don't listen.

178
00:12:26,440 --> 00:12:26,440
Council,

179
00:12:30,220 --> 00:12:32,000
I always be smarted in you.

180
00:12:32,100 --> 00:12:32,540
Council,

181
00:12:35,150 --> 00:12:38,050
you're going to have a meeting at the Public Library Council,

182
00:12:38,590 --> 00:12:41,450
but you have it made for a rent, Council.

183
00:12:42,470 --> 00:12:45,910
There's a lot of stuff being thrown out in this community Council.

184
00:12:45,910 --> 00:12:52,970
And I am doing this to be funny council, because I am the only one council that does permits

185
00:12:52,970 --> 00:12:57,650
and get them approved council, not even your MDA drive council,

186
00:13:02,580 --> 00:13:04,400
but I am terrible kid now,

187
00:13:04,820 --> 00:13:09,780
1993 council, you are living on what I did council,

188
00:13:13,660 --> 00:13:15,760
so who is going to sponsor the price

189
00:13:15,760 --> 00:13:24,240
gasoline counsel, the price of rents counsel, even the price of salary counsel. That's the

190
00:13:24,240 --> 00:13:31,780
obstruction. Council. I guess not to get out of quarter. I got to say how many councils. Then

191
00:13:31,780 --> 00:13:35,460
I got to have this community laugh at me on TV council.

192
00:13:37,850 --> 00:13:39,450
Take my kindness from my weakness

193
00:13:39,450 --> 00:13:46,870
counsel. Copyright me counsel. You know, this is out of hand. I want to call myself out

194
00:13:46,870 --> 00:13:47,790
order council.

195
00:13:49,870 --> 00:13:56,470
You know, I'm not the Joe Council, the jokes right here, council, because there

196
00:13:56,470 --> 00:14:02,690
is issues that should have been voted on council. And all this libel and slander and

197
00:14:02,690 --> 00:14:11,690
deformation at character, a council, go ask the library director council, which officer

198
00:14:11,690 --> 00:14:13,490
does not care.

199
00:14:17,840 --> 00:14:25,840
I'm on your side chief, but I can't counsel. I have to address the issues

200
00:14:25,840 --> 00:14:34,700
because I've got cops, counsel, that think a car is just theirs. And counsel, I'm trying

201
00:14:34,700 --> 00:14:42,580
to educate even to a judge's post. Everybody's on Facebook, me counsel, if you don't like

202
00:14:43,480 --> 00:14:49,560
take me off, because it feels like I've sent you something or give a message, and now I'm

203
00:14:49,560 --> 00:14:53,720
being summons, almost like violation of civil rights counsel,

204
00:14:56,260 --> 00:14:58,380
any recordings of Squash Council.

205
00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:03,580
This is only conduct. I'm right here, council. Thank you.

206
00:15:06,650 --> 00:15:08,810
And there are five agenda items this evening.

207
00:15:12,150 --> 00:15:12,910
Next speaker, please.

208
00:15:17,150 --> 00:15:19,910
My name is Scott. Scott called Will.

209
00:15:21,330 --> 00:15:24,790
My address is 410 is 245th Street.

210
00:15:24,790 --> 00:15:27,530
Also, the director of Frederick Douglass High School,

211
00:15:27,750 --> 00:15:31,390
located in Eucleau, Ohio, just a couple of things.

212
00:15:31,870 --> 00:15:36,860
I want to mirror what the mayor said.

213
00:15:37,020 --> 00:15:39,960
The art walk in the steam fest was a huge success.

214
00:15:40,160 --> 00:15:43,020
So I really enjoyed my time there.

215
00:15:43,440 --> 00:15:50,260
So kudos to the individuals that set up those two great events.

216
00:15:53,740 --> 00:16:00,460
Secondly, if you didn't know the Ohio State report card came out, I know we like to talk

217
00:16:00,460 --> 00:16:06,800
about the schools and their report card grade, so I'm going to just talk about Frederick

218
00:16:06,800 --> 00:16:10,880
Douglas High School's report card grade and we exceed at standards.

219
00:16:11,920 --> 00:16:17,820
Okay, so that is equivalent to a 4.5 stars by the state.

220
00:16:18,760 --> 00:16:22,320
There's schools in the area that just met the standards,

221
00:16:23,100 --> 00:16:25,960
but Frederick Douglass High School exceeded those standards.

222
00:16:27,640 --> 00:16:30,580
So we, you know, produce more with less.

223
00:16:31,200 --> 00:16:32,840
So I'm very proud of my school.

224
00:16:32,940 --> 00:16:35,580
I'm very proud of my students, my staff,

225
00:16:35,720 --> 00:16:36,820
my school community.

226
00:16:37,340 --> 00:16:41,640
We're doing a great job in Euclid despite what a lot of people say.

227
00:16:42,200 --> 00:16:45,360
So I appreciate their hard work and dedication.

228
00:16:48,520 --> 00:16:50,860
And other than that, thank you for your time.

229
00:16:51,400 --> 00:16:51,780
Thank you.

230
00:16:52,200 --> 00:16:52,980
Next speaker, please.

231
00:17:00,500 --> 00:17:01,220
Good evening.

232
00:17:01,680 --> 00:17:07,640
Mayor Holdtimer, chairman, gyros, members of the council and everyone here tonight.

233
00:17:08,180 --> 00:17:10,700
And watching from home, thank you for the time.

234
00:17:11,380 --> 00:17:14,500
For those of you who haven't had a chance to meet me yet, I'm Karen Brown.

235
00:17:14,500 --> 00:17:25,520
I am the New Superintendent of Euclid Schools and it is my honor to be here with you to talk a little bit about what we are working on.

236
00:17:25,800 --> 00:17:40,420
I want the Euclid community to know that I am here to listen, that our students and families are your neighbors, your coworkers, your friends, and I'm committed to the success of our students and their families.

237
00:17:40,420 --> 00:17:46,420
In fact, earlier today, my team and I had a chance to sit down with the mayor, with Crystal

238
00:17:46,420 --> 00:17:51,360
Greta, with members of our police force, with the director of the Library and members

239
00:17:51,360 --> 00:17:55,080
of her team to talk about some of our shared challenges.

240
00:17:55,660 --> 00:18:00,240
We left that meeting with new ideas about ways that we can work together to support each

241
00:18:00,240 --> 00:18:04,840
other and to consistent messages to our students and families.

242
00:18:04,840 --> 00:18:12,200
I'm looking forward to more of that type of collaboration and problem-solving as I continue in this role.

243
00:18:12,880 --> 00:18:20,880
Our district focused this year is on impact and the difference that we can make in the lives of our students each and every day.

244
00:18:21,160 --> 00:18:24,040
But we know that we can't do that work alone.

245
00:18:24,420 --> 00:18:31,780
The city and the schools serve the same customers and when one of us succeeds so does the other.

246
00:18:31,780 --> 00:18:34,860
So, that's why my team and I are here tonight.

247
00:18:35,080 --> 00:18:38,560
We look forward to strengthening our partnership with the city

248
00:18:38,560 --> 00:18:43,660
and hope that every resident will see the schools as their own.

249
00:18:43,800 --> 00:18:47,140
My doors open and I'd love to hear from you

250
00:18:47,140 --> 00:18:48,540
and I thank you for your time.

251
00:18:49,220 --> 00:18:49,760
Thank you.

252
00:18:51,500 --> 00:18:52,600
Next speaker, please.

253
00:18:59,210 --> 00:19:01,250
Good evening, council and mayor.

254
00:19:01,490 --> 00:19:05,770
My name is Joel Barrett and I'm at 110 East to a Night Street.

255
00:19:05,770 --> 00:19:10,950
And tonight, I'm just coming to talk to you on behalf of the friends of Kayahoga D.D.

256
00:19:11,530 --> 00:19:15,910
I have come before to talk to you about the Kayahoga County Board of Developmental Disabilities.

257
00:19:16,750 --> 00:19:26,230
So tonight, I just want to talk briefly about the thousands of county residents that rely on the vital services provided by the Board of Developmental Disabilities.

258
00:19:26,930 --> 00:19:34,910
And these services are the difference between a person living with dignity and independence in the community and a person left without the support they need.

259
00:19:34,910 --> 00:19:40,190
Critical services include safe and stable housing for residents with developmental disabilities.

260
00:19:40,910 --> 00:19:47,670
Personal in-home care to assist individuals with disabilities with transportation, cooking, hygiene, shopping.

261
00:19:48,530 --> 00:19:53,410
Physical, occupational, and speech therapy to help people develop skills to be more independent.

262
00:19:54,270 --> 00:20:02,050
And employment assistance to help people with developmental disabilities find and keep meaningful jobs and volunteer opportunities in our community.

263
00:20:02,050 --> 00:20:08,750
There are growing diagnoses of conditions like autism, shrinking state and federal support

264
00:20:08,750 --> 00:20:10,050
and increasing mandates.

265
00:20:10,950 --> 00:20:13,850
These services and the neighbors who depend on them are at risk.

266
00:20:14,810 --> 00:20:19,090
Kaya Hugga County Board of Developmental Disability has been a responsible steward of taxpayer

267
00:20:19,090 --> 00:20:24,830
dollars for the past 21 years, and the last time that Kaya Hugga Board of Developmental

268
00:20:24,830 --> 00:20:28,550
Disabilities was on a ballot was in 2005.

269
00:20:28,550 --> 00:20:34,550
At that time, they promised voters that funding would last for 10 years and it's been 21 years.

270
00:20:35,150 --> 00:20:41,490
They've done more with less for longer because that's what our community deserves, but at that time they reached a breaking point.

271
00:20:43,270 --> 00:20:49,250
Without the support, therapy for infants and children that helped meet developmental milestones may be at risk.

272
00:20:49,250 --> 00:20:55,330
Employment programs that help people contribute to the community may also be at risk.

273
00:20:55,470 --> 00:20:59,010
And personal care is at risk to help people stay in their own homes.

274
00:21:00,130 --> 00:21:05,430
The City of Euclid has over 500 people with developmental disabilities that we serve living in the community.

275
00:21:06,070 --> 00:21:10,390
And we are very proud, Kai Hoga-Dee, to help be a partner with Euclid.

276
00:21:10,390 --> 00:21:17,770
In 2026, this year, we have helped give $10,000 in grant money to for access for a

277
00:21:17,770 --> 00:21:21,930
Mavic Park to make that more of an inclusive space and we're very proud of that partnership.

278
00:21:22,650 --> 00:21:24,830
And we've also helped with the UFLit Library.

279
00:21:25,490 --> 00:21:31,610
In 2022, we provided some funding for a library facilitated program in 2024.

280
00:21:32,110 --> 00:21:38,330
We helped to fund the universal changing table, which has just been instrumental in helping people

281
00:21:38,330 --> 00:21:45,290
who are not able to use the toilet independently, have more dignity and for adults to be able

282
00:21:45,290 --> 00:21:47,870
to have access to those facilities.

283
00:21:48,730 --> 00:21:53,970
And then in 2026, the kind of Kaihada County Board, its developmental abilities helped the

284
00:21:53,970 --> 00:21:56,490
library with entrances and exits for accessibility.

285
00:21:57,510 --> 00:22:02,790
So we have been a strong partner, and I just thank you for listening this evening, and I hope

286
00:22:02,790 --> 00:22:03,970
you have a very good evening.

287
00:22:04,130 --> 00:22:04,550
Thank you.

288
00:22:04,930 --> 00:22:05,610
Thank you.

289
00:22:06,890 --> 00:22:11,870
Any other comments from residents or anybody in the audience?

290
00:22:13,610 --> 00:22:14,290
Thank you everyone.

291
00:22:15,230 --> 00:22:18,070
We'll now move on to our legislative agenda for this evening.

292
00:22:18,230 --> 00:22:20,750
Council Clerk, please read the first agenda item into the record.

293
00:22:21,830 --> 00:22:26,270
Third reading of ordinance 087-26.

294
00:22:26,270 --> 00:22:29,970
in ordnance to amend Section 1 of

295
00:22:30,000 --> 00:22:57,920
Audence number 2812, as amended, in the map and map designations, which map and map designations as amended form a part of ordinance number 2812, as it relates to and designates a U2 residential and U3 multi-family residential use districts relative to a parcel identified as VL,

296
00:22:57,920 --> 00:23:07,920
the Lakeshore Boulevard, Eucodohio, 414123, and permanent parcel number 644-07002.

297
00:23:08,720 --> 00:23:09,480
Thank you, Motion 4.

298
00:23:09,560 --> 00:23:14,400
Approval to begin the discussion, motion by Tanner, seconded by Toulton, All in Favor.

299
00:23:15,460 --> 00:23:16,280
Thank you to the administration.

300
00:23:17,020 --> 00:23:17,820
Thank you, Mr. Chairman.

301
00:23:18,200 --> 00:23:18,840
Good evening.

302
00:23:18,860 --> 00:23:19,780
Good evening, Council.

303
00:23:19,920 --> 00:23:21,060
Good evening, ladies and gentlemen.

304
00:23:21,060 --> 00:23:29,080
Well, this legislation deals with the rezoning of a residential U2Lat and to a multi-family

305
00:23:29,080 --> 00:23:31,360
residential use district.

306
00:23:31,680 --> 00:23:36,160
It is adjacent to a current U3 multi-family residential property.

307
00:23:39,180 --> 00:23:46,420
The owner of the property is adding this LAT, the U2 residential LAT to expand its parking.

308
00:23:46,420 --> 00:23:56,900
There will not be any construction of the apartment complex or anything else.

309
00:23:57,200 --> 00:24:00,040
It's just to add additional space for parking.

310
00:24:03,640 --> 00:24:13,200
This area was subject to a litigation, which Council was approval litigation.

311
00:24:13,200 --> 00:24:18,960
That said, I'm sorry, the settlement of the litigation and part of the settlement terms involved.

312
00:24:19,480 --> 00:24:29,280
The rezoning of this lot, we are asking for Council's approval for, you know, the normal process we do go through.

313
00:24:29,680 --> 00:24:37,440
And rezoning parcels and to be consistent in the future when dealing with these type of situations.

314
00:24:38,240 --> 00:24:41,280
I'm happy to answer any questions that you may have.

315
00:24:41,280 --> 00:24:42,060
Thank you.

316
00:24:42,240 --> 00:24:44,800
Yes, and this was discussed with an executive session.

317
00:24:45,640 --> 00:24:49,840
So any questions, comments, concerns from members of council?

318
00:24:51,140 --> 00:24:53,340
Okay, seeing none, motion close to big.

319
00:24:53,820 --> 00:24:56,280
Motion by Gresham, second by Kaskir, fallen favor.

320
00:24:57,940 --> 00:24:59,360
You, Kaskir Clerk, please call the roll

321
00:24:59,360 --> 00:25:00,740
on the merits of this ordinance.

322
00:25:01,720 --> 00:25:02,160
Toulton.

323
00:25:03,620 --> 00:25:03,840
Yes.

324
00:25:04,540 --> 00:25:05,000
Gresham?

325
00:25:05,420 --> 00:25:05,760
Yes.

326
00:25:06,080 --> 00:25:06,340
Kaskir.

327
00:25:06,860 --> 00:25:07,160
Yes.

328
00:25:07,540 --> 00:25:07,840
Annam?

329
00:25:08,080 --> 00:25:08,380
Yes.

330
00:25:08,680 --> 00:25:09,140
What's hella?

331
00:25:09,340 --> 00:25:09,660
Yes.

332
00:25:09,660 --> 00:25:11,940
Ile, yes, Tanner.

333
00:25:13,220 --> 00:25:13,420
Yes.

334
00:25:14,200 --> 00:25:14,860
Jaros.

335
00:25:14,980 --> 00:25:15,280
Yes.

336
00:25:15,940 --> 00:25:16,700
Ordnance passes.

337
00:25:17,380 --> 00:25:18,000
Thank you.

338
00:25:18,120 --> 00:25:20,580
Council Clerk, please read the second agenda item at the record.

339
00:25:21,580 --> 00:25:34,540
Third reading of ordinance 092-26 and ordinance amending section 1359.03B25 permitted uses.

340
00:25:34,540 --> 00:25:49,860
1359.04, definitions of specific uses, and 1359.06 regulations for specific uses of chapter 1359,

341
00:25:50,540 --> 00:25:58,040
you four, you five, and you six, business and industrial districts of the planning and zoning

342
00:25:58,040 --> 00:26:04,520
code of the codified ordinances of the city of Euglid to make amendments associated with

343
00:26:04,520 --> 00:26:12,780
distribution of sale of vape, e-cigarette products, and concerning smoke and vape shops.

344
00:26:14,560 --> 00:26:18,480
Thank you, Motion for Approval to begin the discussion. Motion by head. I'm seconded by

345
00:26:19,160 --> 00:26:25,100
Tanner. All in favor. Thank you to administration. Thank you, Mr. Chair. Good evening, Council.

346
00:26:25,920 --> 00:26:33,480
As a reminder, this is a proposed set of code amendments that now would specifically enumerate vape shops

347
00:26:33,480 --> 00:26:38,500
and smoke shops in the table of permitted uses and included as a conditionally permitted

348
00:26:38,500 --> 00:26:48,440
use in the U4 and U5 districts, it includes the definitions of specific items and defining

349
00:26:48,440 --> 00:26:51,120
what a vape and our smoke shop are in our zoning code.

350
00:26:51,420 --> 00:26:54,900
These are definitions that did not previously exist in our code.

351
00:26:55,480 --> 00:27:02,480
And finally, it adds regulations for specific uses, namely buffer requirements between a proposed

352
00:27:02,480 --> 00:27:07,900
vapor smoke shop and other vapor smoke shops as well as a number of other enumerated uses

353
00:27:07,900 --> 00:27:15,140
in Section 1359.06 as Councilman Cowsgriff detailed in his committee report.

354
00:27:15,160 --> 00:27:17,620
This was heard in committee on September 2.

355
00:27:18,000 --> 00:27:23,680
Thank you very much for a very lively detailed discussion around the proposed set of regulations.

356
00:27:23,680 --> 00:27:30,500
I think this is the mark of good regulation in the conversation that came back and forth between

357
00:27:30,500 --> 00:27:35,880
the administration in council, and I think this represents a good path forward as we continue

358
00:27:35,880 --> 00:27:39,640
to seek to create a vibrant community and vibrant commercial districts.

359
00:27:39,780 --> 00:27:40,760
Happy to answer any questions.

360
00:27:41,500 --> 00:27:42,160
Thank you.

361
00:27:42,500 --> 00:27:44,240
Any questions from members of council?

362
00:27:44,320 --> 00:27:44,540
Council.

363
00:27:47,600 --> 00:27:48,860
Thank you, Mr. President.

364
00:27:50,180 --> 00:27:53,740
To the Director, Groger Mire, or even to the low director.

365
00:27:54,620 --> 00:28:00,320
In our committee meeting, we had talked about there was a part of the name about 25 percent.

366
00:28:01,620 --> 00:28:06,780
the products of the store, you don't have to be vague products, we don't have that

367
00:28:06,780 --> 00:28:08,840
end issue, that be in this or no.

368
00:28:10,520 --> 00:28:11,140
Did you have a stretch?

369
00:28:12,200 --> 00:28:18,760
Mr. Chair, to the Councilman, let me, I certainly do see it.

370
00:28:18,820 --> 00:28:23,160
Should be under the definitions of

371
00:28:27,120 --> 00:28:28,520
the patterns we've been.

372
00:28:32,880 --> 00:28:39,660
I believe it is in subsection A8 principle, show me that alternative nicotine products,

373
00:28:39,940 --> 00:28:44,600
nicotine products, smoking perfonellia, vape juice, or any combination of their own constitute

374
00:28:44,600 --> 00:28:48,400
a minimum of 25% of the business's retail space.

375
00:28:48,940 --> 00:28:50,380
Okay, okay, I just missed it.

376
00:28:51,320 --> 00:28:52,160
Thank you.

377
00:28:57,300 --> 00:28:57,700
Thank you.

378
00:28:57,940 --> 00:29:01,260
Any other questions or comments on this?

379
00:29:01,320 --> 00:29:04,580
And again, this was discussed at length in a recent committee meeting.

380
00:29:04,580 --> 00:29:09,060
So, okay, with that motion to close the debate, motion by

381
00:29:09,060 --> 00:29:12,620
Coscriv, second and by, Hyl, I'll unfaith it.

382
00:29:14,200 --> 00:29:14,680
Thank you.

383
00:29:14,920 --> 00:29:16,920
Council Clerk, please call the roll on the merits of the

384
00:29:16,920 --> 00:29:17,480
soreness.

385
00:29:18,660 --> 00:29:18,860
Good.

386
00:29:19,560 --> 00:29:20,120
Yes.

387
00:29:20,720 --> 00:29:21,120
Coscriv?

388
00:29:21,520 --> 00:29:21,780
Yes.

389
00:29:22,400 --> 00:29:22,600
Hannah?

390
00:29:23,040 --> 00:29:23,320
Yes.

391
00:29:23,620 --> 00:29:24,100
With Hyl?

392
00:29:24,300 --> 00:29:24,760
Yes.

393
00:29:26,400 --> 00:29:26,580
Hannah?

394
00:29:26,960 --> 00:29:27,260
Yes.

395
00:29:27,560 --> 00:29:28,060
Toulton?

396
00:29:28,760 --> 00:29:29,060
Yes.

397
00:29:29,540 --> 00:29:29,880
And jars?

398
00:29:30,100 --> 00:29:30,420
Yes.

399
00:29:30,420 --> 00:29:32,180
ordinance passes.

400
00:29:32,580 --> 00:29:35,100
Please read the third agenda item into the record.

401
00:29:36,900 --> 00:29:41,560
First reading of ordinance 107-26.

402
00:29:42,540 --> 00:29:46,420
An ordinance to amend section 1 of ordinance number 2812.

403
00:29:47,660 --> 00:29:50,700
As amended and the map and map designations,

404
00:29:51,820 --> 00:29:54,880
which map and map designations as amended

405
00:29:54,880 --> 00:29:58,860
form a part of ordinance number 2812

406
00:29:58,860 --> 00:29:59,980
as it relates to

407
00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:15,400
New and designates a U-2 residential and U-4 local retail or wholesale use districts relative to a parcel identified as 365 east 200 street.

408
00:30:15,400 --> 00:30:23,240
You could Ohio 41419 and permanent parcel number 642-2203.

409
00:30:24,420 --> 00:30:24,680
Thank you.

410
00:30:24,900 --> 00:30:26,520
Motion for approval to begin the discussion.

411
00:30:26,720 --> 00:30:28,900
Motion by Adam, second by Tanner.

412
00:30:29,280 --> 00:30:29,660
All in favour?

413
00:30:30,640 --> 00:30:30,860
Thank you.

414
00:30:32,040 --> 00:30:32,760
Thank you, Mr. Chair.

415
00:30:33,180 --> 00:30:38,160
Council, this is a companion piece to the next agenda item as well.

416
00:30:38,540 --> 00:30:44,760
An application has been submitted to operate an adult activity center in the former

417
00:30:44,760 --> 00:30:50,140
system's bank building on East 200 Street at the corner of Westport and East 200th.

418
00:30:50,140 --> 00:30:54,840
In staff review of the proposed application, which will be the subject of the next piece

419
00:30:54,840 --> 00:30:58,900
of legislation, it was discovered that the parcel is split zone.

420
00:30:59,420 --> 00:31:06,620
So that means that the rear approximately half of the parcel is zone two residential district

421
00:31:06,620 --> 00:31:11,260
while the front half facing East 200 Street is zone two four.

422
00:31:11,260 --> 00:31:16,380
This is something that typically when an application comes through and staff identifies it.

423
00:31:16,540 --> 00:31:22,300
We recommend rezoning the entire parcel just to clarify for now and into the future.

424
00:31:23,220 --> 00:31:28,260
Any situations that may come up, it prevents further issues in the future.

425
00:31:28,800 --> 00:31:35,520
And so the subject of this legislation is proposing to rezoning the entire parcel to you for which is consistent with the Master Plan.

426
00:31:35,520 --> 00:31:43,220
This matter was considered by the Planning and Zoning Commission at its August 11th meeting and it gave a positive recommendation to City Council.

427
00:31:43,700 --> 00:31:44,700
Happy to answer any questions.

428
00:31:45,300 --> 00:31:47,800
And if I'm not mistaken, this must go through readings.

429
00:31:48,100 --> 00:31:48,480
Is that correct?

430
00:31:48,600 --> 00:31:49,560
Mr. Chair, there's correct.

431
00:31:49,840 --> 00:31:50,720
Okay, thank you.

432
00:31:51,780 --> 00:31:54,980
So we do have a couple more meetings before we would.

433
00:31:55,000 --> 00:31:55,780
Can vote on it?

434
00:31:55,820 --> 00:31:58,520
Is there any questions or comments between now in that?

435
00:31:59,420 --> 00:32:00,080
Council, Moatilla.

436
00:32:01,940 --> 00:32:02,680
Thank you, Mr. Chairman.

437
00:32:02,680 --> 00:32:11,080
On the interactive zoning map, it looks like the retail used to the north of it is also

438
00:32:11,080 --> 00:32:12,560
a zoned residential.

439
00:32:13,400 --> 00:32:17,980
Mr. Chair to the Council for those in that's correct, that was also identified during

440
00:32:17,980 --> 00:32:18,540
staff review.

441
00:32:18,800 --> 00:32:24,320
So there are a number of these type of inconsistencies that staff, you'll see over time periodic

442
00:32:24,320 --> 00:32:28,580
rezoning efforts and that would be one of the future consideration.

443
00:32:28,580 --> 00:32:40,840
Okay. And the depth of this lot across Westport, there's also a retail use, looks like

444
00:32:40,840 --> 00:32:43,040
that also doesn't go deep enough.

445
00:32:44,140 --> 00:32:45,840
Mr. Trigbert, how's your net is correct?

446
00:32:46,420 --> 00:32:53,560
Because, you know, looking at the zoning, the distinction between the U2 and U4, it's, this

447
00:32:53,560 --> 00:32:58,960
would go deeper, but in actuality it wouldn't, well, because on the South side of Westport,

448
00:32:58,960 --> 00:33:02,620
that retail use continues to a very similar depth

449
00:33:02,620 --> 00:33:04,920
as the subject properties.

450
00:33:06,000 --> 00:33:08,420
Okay, I just wanted to make good clarity on that.

451
00:33:08,420 --> 00:33:09,280
Thank you.

452
00:33:10,800 --> 00:33:12,100
Any other questions?

453
00:33:14,320 --> 00:33:14,980
Kosma Kosma.

454
00:33:15,920 --> 00:33:16,860
Thank you, Chair.

455
00:33:18,740 --> 00:33:26,260
Is the parcel owner present and all right?

456
00:33:26,760 --> 00:33:29,440
Would you be open to coming up to the podium

457
00:33:29,440 --> 00:33:31,380
and giving us a little background?

458
00:33:33,100 --> 00:33:33,880
Go ahead, hold on one second.

459
00:33:35,320 --> 00:33:36,920
That's what I was saying.

460
00:33:37,360 --> 00:33:41,180
No, that I believe her specific would be the next agenda item.

461
00:33:41,500 --> 00:33:43,500
Oh, we're just talking to Zoning of this.

462
00:33:43,620 --> 00:33:44,920
Oh, this is owning of it.

463
00:33:45,320 --> 00:33:46,220
Okay, five apologies.

464
00:33:49,190 --> 00:33:49,670
Thank you.

465
00:33:49,790 --> 00:33:51,150
So I see anything else?

466
00:33:51,930 --> 00:33:53,990
So most of the council would have had them.

467
00:33:55,940 --> 00:33:56,480
Thank you, Chair.

468
00:33:56,520 --> 00:33:59,640
I just wanted to double check because our fact sheets

469
00:33:59,640 --> 00:34:07,620
have this last rezone back in 1922. Is that when they split this lot into you for in YouTube?

470
00:34:08,780 --> 00:34:15,360
Director, Mr. Chair of the Councilperson, that's the best we can tell based on looking through

471
00:34:15,360 --> 00:34:23,720
a series of old non-digitized zoning maps dating back to the 70s and 60s. As far as we can tell

472
00:34:23,720 --> 00:34:27,120
was split zone dating back to the original zoning map.

473
00:34:27,140 --> 00:34:28,800
Okay. Thank you.

474
00:34:31,030 --> 00:34:36,610
All right. Motion, I closed the big. Motion by Tan, Tan, Tom. I'm sorry.

475
00:34:36,770 --> 00:34:38,510
I told the second by Wittil, all in favor.

476
00:34:40,730 --> 00:34:43,950
And I'll now look for emotions and send us to a second reading.

477
00:34:44,750 --> 00:34:47,870
Motion by Hannah, second by Gresham, all in favor.

478
00:34:48,830 --> 00:34:50,570
Any opposed? Seeing none.

479
00:34:50,770 --> 00:34:53,290
Councillor Clark, please call the roll and send us to a second reading.

480
00:34:56,620 --> 00:34:56,840
Yes.

481
00:34:57,760 --> 00:34:58,100
Yes.

482
00:34:58,440 --> 00:34:58,460
Yes.

483
00:34:58,460 --> 00:34:59,700
What's hella?

484
00:35:00,600 --> 00:35:00,880
Hile?

485
00:35:01,780 --> 00:35:02,120

486
00:35:03,540 --> 00:35:03,720
Yes.

487
00:35:04,160 --> 00:35:04,200
Yes.

488
00:35:04,200 --> 00:35:04,400
Yes.

489
00:35:08,300 --> 00:35:10,340
Motion to send to a second reading has passed.

490
00:35:10,520 --> 00:35:11,120
Thank you.

491
00:35:11,240 --> 00:35:14,100
Consequently, please read the 4th agenda item into the record.

00:35:59,040 --> 00:35:59,880
By motion of Ohio.

499
00:35:59,960 --> 00:36:01,140
Second, my head, I'm all in favor.

500
00:36:02,640 --> 00:36:03,360
Thank you to administration.

501
00:36:04,000 --> 00:36:04,720
Thank you, Mr. Chair.

502
00:36:05,720 --> 00:36:07,060
As this is the companion piece.

503
00:36:07,060 --> 00:36:12,760
This is the subject of the conditional use approval to operate the adult care activity center.

504
00:36:12,960 --> 00:36:17,040
Ms. King is here this evening as well to be able to talk through the specifics of the proposal.

505
00:36:17,040 --> 00:36:22,240
But know that this has been considered by the Planning and Zoning Commission at its August 11th meeting.

506
00:36:22,660 --> 00:36:25,940
I'm giving a positive recommendation to you after its review.

507
00:36:26,740 --> 00:36:31,320
But I want to be sure to note that subject to your approval this evening,

508
00:36:31,840 --> 00:36:35,940
I still requires review by the city's building official and fire prevention bureau

509
00:36:35,940 --> 00:36:39,820
as is the case with any of these type of conditional use approvals.

510
00:36:40,560 --> 00:36:46,360
So this is not done and dusted. It needs to go on then to building and fire review as well.

511
00:36:46,360 --> 00:36:47,360
Thank you.

512
00:36:49,620 --> 00:36:52,820
Councilman Cowsworth, this is in Ward 4, so any.

513
00:36:55,190 --> 00:36:55,790
Thank you, Chair.

514
00:36:56,370 --> 00:36:56,650
If the.

515
00:36:59,490 --> 00:36:59,710
Yeah.

516
00:37:00,150 --> 00:37:00,170
So.

517
00:37:00,270 --> 00:37:05,430
Can I make a motion to suspend the rules and ask the parcel owner?

518
00:37:06,230 --> 00:37:06,250
Yes.

519
00:37:06,730 --> 00:37:10,690
So I have a motion to suspend the rules and invite the parcel owner up.

520
00:37:10,910 --> 00:37:13,870
I have a motion by Cowsworth, second by Tanner, all in favor.

521
00:37:14,830 --> 00:37:15,470
Any opposed?

522
00:37:15,470 --> 00:37:19,710
saying, no, no. Thank you. If you don't mind, if you could just come up to the microphone,

523
00:37:19,990 --> 00:37:23,910
name an address, and get some questions from folks on council.

524
00:37:30,000 --> 00:37:32,200
All right, everyone, my name is Theresa King.

525
00:37:34,760 --> 00:37:37,080
Yes, this one. Can you hear me?

526
00:37:37,320 --> 00:37:38,140
Yeah, we got you.

527
00:37:39,260 --> 00:37:40,920
Like what we over here like this.

528
00:37:42,780 --> 00:37:46,900
Okay, my name is Theresa King.

529
00:37:48,240 --> 00:37:56,280
I reside, I was residing, you little hyle, and I moved to Lake County.

530
00:37:57,440 --> 00:38:04,460
but I'm stuck in you glit. I like you glit. My daughter do go to

531
00:38:04,460 --> 00:38:10,060
you glit high school. I went to school for nursing assistant back in

532
00:38:10,060 --> 00:38:15,960
who like 1996. I started taking care of people. I would take care of people

533
00:38:15,960 --> 00:38:26,260
all my life. That's the passion for me. So currently right now we run a

534
00:38:26,260 --> 00:38:28,160
and empty for the past couple years.

535
00:38:28,300 --> 00:38:29,940
So I said, okay, well, I'm a buy-in-pat building.

536
00:38:30,500 --> 00:38:33,280
So I went, I bought the building because I wanted to expand.

537
00:38:33,440 --> 00:38:34,400
I wanted to grow.

538
00:38:34,900 --> 00:38:39,180
I wanted to accept clients that that's in wheelchairs.

539
00:38:40,120 --> 00:38:43,120
Instead of just taking the population that walks.

540
00:38:43,340 --> 00:38:46,020
So currently, right now, we do run a dog day center.

541
00:38:46,740 --> 00:38:49,900
We take them on outings, we go to the zoo, we go to the movies,

542
00:38:50,120 --> 00:38:52,900
we go bowling, we go out the eat, we stay at Calahari,

543
00:38:53,840 --> 00:39:01,140
We went camping out there and this is about an hour away.

544
00:39:01,540 --> 00:39:03,280
At debate, what does it call the big frog?

545
00:39:04,060 --> 00:39:05,660
We went out there, we went camping.

546
00:39:07,160 --> 00:39:08,760
They do have movie days.

547
00:39:09,340 --> 00:39:11,720
We do provide service for them.

548
00:39:11,740 --> 00:39:12,560
We do hygiene.

549
00:39:12,960 --> 00:39:13,620
We do shower.

550
00:39:13,880 --> 00:39:16,720
We do medication administration for them.

551
00:39:17,120 --> 00:39:21,300
We treat them like how we treat ourselves and how we treat our kids.

552
00:39:21,300 --> 00:39:26,720
every day, I was at work today, taking care of them, every day, I work with them, every single day.

553
00:39:27,000 --> 00:39:32,860
Every single day. It's a passion for me. It's not just a job, it's something that I do.

554
00:39:33,240 --> 00:39:39,920
They is important to me and we are important to them and they rely on us to help them get through the day,

555
00:39:40,040 --> 00:39:48,820
because they can't do everything by themselves. So, this is my life. This is what I do. I'm a continued

556
00:39:48,820 --> 00:39:53,660
to do it. It's a passion for me. I'll kind of nervous because I never had to speak your

557
00:39:53,660 --> 00:39:55,040
front of so many people.

558
00:39:55,500 --> 00:39:57,340
Oh, you're doing great.

559
00:39:58,700 --> 00:40:05,220
I just wanted to have something to call our own, instead of just constantly paying rent to

560
00:40:05,220 --> 00:40:09,400
somebody. So that way I could fix the building the way I want to fix the building somewhere

561
00:40:09,400 --> 00:40:15,180
down the line, put a gazebo in the back, put some picnic tables back there for them, barbecue

562
00:40:15,180 --> 00:40:22,700
for them, so they can, you know, barbeque, you know, just do different things with them.

563
00:40:24,440 --> 00:40:24,720
Thank you.

564
00:40:25,020 --> 00:40:28,520
Oh, God, Council, Council, my coscraft, did you have questions?

565
00:40:32,400 --> 00:40:38,740
No specific questions at the moment, just, you know, wanted, wanted a brief overview to get

566
00:40:38,740 --> 00:40:39,320
an idea.

567
00:40:40,180 --> 00:40:44,940
Or, you know, actually, you mentioned, you do have, you currently have an adult daycare

568
00:40:44,940 --> 00:40:45,520
center.

569
00:40:45,520 --> 00:40:45,900
Yes.

570
00:40:45,900 --> 00:40:47,040
that locate it.

571
00:40:47,080 --> 00:40:48,080
Where's my height, Ohio?

572
00:40:52,170 --> 00:40:52,690
Councilman Hannah.

573
00:40:54,690 --> 00:40:55,350
Thank you, Chair.

574
00:40:55,950 --> 00:40:56,790
Thank you, Ms. King.

575
00:40:57,030 --> 00:41:02,090
Can you tell me more about what an adult activity center is and who your client

576
00:41:02,090 --> 00:41:02,830
tell are?

577
00:41:03,810 --> 00:41:10,110
We served a population of D.D., the K.O.O. county devoted disabilities, and the adult

578
00:41:10,110 --> 00:41:14,050
day center is a place where they go to get out the house, so they don't have to be stuck

579
00:41:14,050 --> 00:41:14,610
in the house.

580
00:41:14,610 --> 00:41:17,750
They rely on us to take them out into the community,

581
00:41:17,970 --> 00:41:21,370
to take them to activities, to keep them,

582
00:41:21,370 --> 00:41:22,330
you know what's in that community,

583
00:41:22,510 --> 00:41:24,430
to keep them active, you know,

584
00:41:24,510 --> 00:41:27,250
we take them to the mall, we take them to Walmart,

585
00:41:27,590 --> 00:41:30,610
we take them to the zoo, we just take them out

586
00:41:30,610 --> 00:41:32,390
in the community so they could be involved

587
00:41:32,390 --> 00:41:34,010
so they could be a part of the community.

588
00:41:35,190 --> 00:41:38,190
They want to do things just like how we do things.

589
00:41:39,090 --> 00:41:41,330
They like to go out the eat, they like to go bowling,

590
00:41:41,430 --> 00:41:42,610
they like to go to the movies,

591
00:41:42,610 --> 00:41:44,750
they look forward to these things.

592
00:41:49,010 --> 00:41:50,410
One second, councilmember, councilmember.

593
00:41:51,050 --> 00:41:51,450
How do you feel?

594
00:41:52,870 --> 00:41:54,070
One other question.

595
00:41:54,610 --> 00:41:56,950
How many people will you be serving at the site?

596
00:41:58,810 --> 00:42:02,590
I have to see what they give me the occupancy permit for,

597
00:42:02,870 --> 00:42:06,950
maybe 30, maybe 35, I don't, however,

598
00:42:07,090 --> 00:42:08,430
how many do you build in the cold?

599
00:42:14,910 --> 00:42:16,210
Councilman told me.

600
00:42:18,150 --> 00:42:19,010
Thank you, Mr. Chair.

601
00:42:20,150 --> 00:42:21,210
Thank you for coming this evening.

602
00:42:21,490 --> 00:42:21,630
Thank you.

603
00:42:21,630 --> 00:42:23,870
You said you were nervous, but you said you were in a great job.

604
00:42:23,870 --> 00:42:31,310
So you're good, you're good, you're good, so you just reiterate, you said you're renting

605
00:42:31,310 --> 00:42:34,290
enrichment, but you're purchasing here and you go.

606
00:42:34,290 --> 00:42:36,290
I already purchased the building.

607
00:42:36,430 --> 00:42:36,810
Okay.

608
00:42:36,810 --> 00:42:37,990
It's just a building back in May.

609
00:42:38,130 --> 00:42:38,350
Okay.

610
00:42:39,050 --> 00:42:45,790
And that's, so you said you're expanding, we like to expand, so currently you have 30 clients.

611
00:42:46,070 --> 00:42:49,450
No, we don't have 30 clients into the activity center.

612
00:42:49,990 --> 00:42:57,010
We don't have it, but by us, by me purchased in the building, it's bigger and we can try to expand.

613
00:42:57,610 --> 00:42:59,230
Okay, so how many clients do you have currently?

614
00:42:59,410 --> 00:43:00,210
We have eight up there.

615
00:43:00,230 --> 00:43:01,150
Yeah, eight, okay.

616
00:43:01,350 --> 00:43:02,530
How many employees do you have?

617
00:43:02,710 --> 00:43:05,830
Oh, like 20, about 28, about 28.

618
00:43:06,430 --> 00:43:06,690
Okay.

619
00:43:06,850 --> 00:43:08,230
Because we serve as homes.

620
00:43:08,830 --> 00:43:12,850
Okay, so how many would be just in the facility?

621
00:43:14,030 --> 00:43:14,810
To about the consumers?

622
00:43:15,910 --> 00:43:16,390
Employees.

623
00:43:16,390 --> 00:43:22,950
It depends on how many in here because you could have one staff to seven customers.

624
00:43:23,150 --> 00:43:23,670
Okay.

625
00:43:25,230 --> 00:43:25,330
Okay.

626
00:43:26,750 --> 00:43:30,690
And these are what is a DD client, so whatever it's okay.

627
00:43:35,150 --> 00:43:37,110
And I'm not, like I said, I understand.

628
00:43:37,290 --> 00:43:38,930
I just have some questions and into the administration.

629
00:43:39,570 --> 00:43:42,070
I definitely understand you wanting to do that.

630
00:43:42,070 --> 00:43:46,510
What you're doing is it's a passion for you as you stated and it's well-needed.

631
00:43:47,210 --> 00:43:55,550
The only issue I have is the proliferation of adult and child care centers.

632
00:43:56,170 --> 00:44:02,890
So this question is to maybe Director Groger Mire, a few months back we asked for study

633
00:44:02,890 --> 00:44:06,330
of daycare as an adult daycare as it all that kind of stuff.

634
00:44:06,710 --> 00:44:08,030
Where do we stand with that?

635
00:44:09,430 --> 00:44:12,110
Mr. Chair of the Councilman, we are currently working on that.

636
00:44:12,110 --> 00:44:16,430
I appreciate Councilman Haio Ford along some information, as well as the fire department.

637
00:44:17,330 --> 00:44:20,530
We expect to have a draft memo to be able to share the council around the end of the month

638
00:44:20,530 --> 00:44:21,730
before you know next month.

639
00:44:23,310 --> 00:44:27,130
And in my little research, and I don't know if you have the numbers at front of you, I believe

640
00:44:27,130 --> 00:44:30,450
we have at least seven Del Dake Cares in the city currently.

641
00:44:31,230 --> 00:44:33,270
Mr. Chair, I do not have that information for me.

642
00:44:33,990 --> 00:44:34,390
Okay.

643
00:44:36,690 --> 00:44:38,050
Yeah, I would just like to see that.

644
00:44:38,050 --> 00:44:43,110
before we move forward, we're providing any other, that's just, that's me. I really want to

645
00:44:43,110 --> 00:44:48,190
see that study because I, you know, especially for you as a business person, I would

646
00:44:48,190 --> 00:44:53,230
want to see you succeed and not put your center somewhere with as a thousand other

647
00:44:53,230 --> 00:44:57,230
set I'm exaggerating, but a number of other centers and then maybe you don't, you don't

648
00:44:57,230 --> 00:44:59,010
succeed very well in that location.

649
00:45:22,320 --> 00:45:29,980
I don't think I would be setting myself up for failure because I would take care of people for years. I know what they like. I don't think I would be setting myself up for failure because I would take care of people for years.

650
00:45:29,980 --> 00:45:35,180
know what they want to do is about keeping them happy, it's about making them happy.

651
00:45:35,920 --> 00:45:40,480
And I definitely get that, I just think as a city we have to be concerned too, that we

652
00:45:40,480 --> 00:45:46,460
don't over saturate ourselves with one type of business or something within a certain

653
00:45:46,460 --> 00:45:46,860
location.

654
00:45:47,080 --> 00:45:51,260
So I want to make sure again that we're not over saturating ourselves with giving you opportunity

655
00:45:51,260 --> 00:45:52,520
to succeed.

656
00:45:52,760 --> 00:45:57,100
I mean, even though you say instead of people that come with you, I'm starting to

657
00:45:57,100 --> 00:45:58,520
but I told you I understand what you say,

658
00:45:58,580 --> 00:46:00,600
but they have multiple other saying businesses

659
00:46:00,600 --> 00:46:02,320
in the city of Eucalyte.

660
00:46:02,640 --> 00:46:03,860
But that's my point, that's my point.

661
00:46:03,880 --> 00:46:07,760
I understand what you say, but nobody is in competition with each other.

662
00:46:08,920 --> 00:46:10,460
It's nobody out there is in competition.

663
00:46:11,760 --> 00:46:13,480
Okay, yeah, but okay, I get you point.

664
00:46:13,540 --> 00:46:15,740
I get you point, but thank you, thank you.

665
00:46:15,740 --> 00:46:16,080
Thank you.

666
00:46:16,420 --> 00:46:18,300
Ms. King, when you purchased a property,

667
00:46:18,600 --> 00:46:19,100
yes, I did.

668
00:46:19,540 --> 00:46:21,420
I know, when you did,

669
00:46:22,540 --> 00:46:26,120
were you made aware that it's not zone for what you want to do?

670
00:46:26,120 --> 00:46:31,280
what I did not know it was in Zones. So when I went to the first hearing, that's when

671
00:46:31,280 --> 00:46:35,640
he told me it was two Zones in on here. So when I did the application, I went to

672
00:46:35,640 --> 00:46:42,640
the first hearing, she said to get a Zones under one Zones. And then moved forward. So

673
00:46:42,640 --> 00:46:47,520
that's what I did. I applied for the other Zones to be abandoned to one Zones.

674
00:46:47,520 --> 00:47:03,180
Right, but even that zoning is because technically what you're here for is to get a conditional use permit to run a business that that property is not zone four.

675
00:47:03,620 --> 00:47:06,020
That's kind of what we're discussing.

676
00:47:06,520 --> 00:47:08,640
I don't know, Councilman, what tell you ahead a question.

677
00:47:09,740 --> 00:47:10,740
Yeah, thank you, Mr. Chairman.

678
00:47:12,260 --> 00:47:16,300
If this were the past, do you anticipate any building or site improvements needed?

679
00:47:17,000 --> 00:47:20,140
No, everything will be really the same.

680
00:47:20,580 --> 00:47:24,140
All the cubicles, a lot of cubicles will be broken down into different areas.

681
00:47:24,960 --> 00:47:26,400
You have a computer area.

682
00:47:26,440 --> 00:47:28,120
You've got your library area.

683
00:47:28,340 --> 00:47:31,780
You've got your activity area.

684
00:47:32,460 --> 00:47:34,400
They like a lot of them like the walk.

685
00:47:35,440 --> 00:47:36,220
They like the walk.

686
00:47:36,340 --> 00:47:38,180
It's like a comfort thing for them.

687
00:47:38,900 --> 00:47:40,380
So then you have your TV area.

688
00:47:40,520 --> 00:47:41,640
You've got your movie area.

689
00:47:41,780 --> 00:47:44,280
So you have different areas that they can be in.

690
00:47:46,420 --> 00:47:53,320
And what is there a state agency that regulates your operations?

691
00:47:53,380 --> 00:47:58,280
Yes, the county is the one who approved us.

692
00:47:58,400 --> 00:48:00,420
The county is the one who keeps up.

693
00:48:00,420 --> 00:48:03,860
We keep up with our certifications and we submit everything to the county.

694
00:48:05,140 --> 00:48:08,160
And what group is that? What specific name?

695
00:48:08,160 --> 00:48:11,520
I'm going to call the county board of B.D.

696
00:48:11,640 --> 00:48:11,640
Oh,

697
00:48:14,130 --> 00:48:14,490
OK.

698
00:48:18,110 --> 00:48:22,730
And you mentioned your clients would be as many

699
00:48:22,730 --> 00:48:25,410
as you can accommodate or fit in the space.

700
00:48:25,450 --> 00:48:26,490
Yeah, probably 30.

701
00:48:27,030 --> 00:48:30,770
But who is that a building code or a client or a stable?

702
00:48:31,090 --> 00:48:31,870
Who established that?

703
00:48:31,870 --> 00:48:33,730
The building code or is that the county board?

704
00:48:33,770 --> 00:48:37,150
The building code established that the fire marsh.

705
00:48:37,230 --> 00:48:39,090
Well, see, when we was up in the Richmond,

706
00:48:39,090 --> 00:48:46,370
And the fire marshal is the one who come out and they approve it, and let's know how many people will fit in the bill then.

707
00:48:46,890 --> 00:48:51,030
So it's not the county board of MR board of D.D. is the building code.

708
00:48:51,610 --> 00:48:51,770
Okay.

709
00:48:51,930 --> 00:48:54,700
Thank you.

710
00:48:54,940 --> 00:48:55,220
I

711
00:48:58,200 --> 00:49:09,480
volunteered for one at one point for our adult care here on a hundred ninety first street, and I know there was a large.

712
00:49:11,040 --> 00:49:13,120
People were very different.

713
00:49:13,380 --> 00:49:17,380
Some folks were very capable of doing things and some folks were not.

714
00:49:17,920 --> 00:49:22,400
Are you working with a certain group or you take everybody who comes?

715
00:49:22,940 --> 00:49:25,060
Like you just say, everybody is different.

716
00:49:25,300 --> 00:49:27,620
They require different type of care.

717
00:49:28,080 --> 00:49:30,440
You have some people to do things on a own,

718
00:49:30,660 --> 00:49:34,240
and then you have some people that you have to need a little more assistance.

719
00:49:36,220 --> 00:49:38,860
And you talked about renting in Richmond Heights.

720
00:49:39,040 --> 00:49:40,260
Are you going to run two centers?

721
00:49:40,260 --> 00:49:41,860
or are you just going to run on?

722
00:49:41,860 --> 00:49:43,880
I'm letting that particular center go.

723
00:49:44,980 --> 00:49:45,100
Great.

724
00:49:46,200 --> 00:49:46,980
Thank you.

725
00:49:47,240 --> 00:49:49,840
My focus is on the building that I purchased.

726
00:49:54,740 --> 00:49:55,520
Oh, I cost my passion.

727
00:49:57,620 --> 00:49:58,180
Thank you, Chair.

728
00:49:58,680 --> 00:50:00,460
And thank you, Ms. King, for being here tonight.

729
00:50:00,920 --> 00:50:02,740
I just have two questions.

730
00:50:03,000 --> 00:50:05,920
I wanted to get a little more clarification on Parking.

731
00:50:06,260 --> 00:50:10,220
I know on East 200 can be a busy street.

732
00:50:10,220 --> 00:50:18,420
So can you talk about how we would do, how you would do parking, and from doing a little research before council.

733
00:50:18,580 --> 00:50:29,260
I think I counted like 21 parking spots currently, and I feel, well, yeah, and a lot that we have to do the zoning for.

734
00:50:29,620 --> 00:50:35,080
So can you talk about just a little, and being also, I work for the health foundation.

735
00:50:35,080 --> 00:50:41,080
So I do understand a, I'm, I'm not talking about the information you're already talking about.

736
00:50:41,420 --> 00:50:46,080
So can you talk about Park and Dan also do you anticipate, like you said,

737
00:50:46,200 --> 00:50:54,020
putting any outdoor facilities within the property, like you said, you might want to go zebra or something.

738
00:50:54,020 --> 00:50:59,340
Not right now, but I mean, by the zebra, you've got to hold people, you go purchase one, do you bring it there?

739
00:50:59,520 --> 00:51:02,280
Not getting one dug up and put in.

740
00:51:02,280 --> 00:51:17,180
But as far as the parking lot will hold two or three vans and then you have staff, but we still have a lot of extra spaces in the parking lot.

741
00:51:19,390 --> 00:51:33,550
And I would also like to suggest I know with the build and when you exit out of the parking lot, if you go on east 200 street, it's like a little on driveway that you can go down.

742
00:51:33,550 --> 00:51:40,850
I want to maybe put in something right there so that other cars can know, hey, a car might be coming out because it's like a little blind

743
00:51:40,850 --> 00:51:42,930
That's fine, I want from what I saw.

744
00:51:44,410 --> 00:51:45,350
So that was all.

745
00:51:45,690 --> 00:51:47,050
Thank you.

746
00:51:47,070 --> 00:51:47,750
Thank you.

747
00:51:49,620 --> 00:51:51,700
Any other questions for Ms. King?

748
00:51:53,520 --> 00:51:53,720
Okay.

749
00:51:53,760 --> 00:51:53,980
See you now.

750
00:51:54,100 --> 00:51:54,780
Thank you very much.

751
00:51:55,060 --> 00:51:56,500
Thank you.

752
00:51:57,640 --> 00:51:58,980
I question team administration.

753
00:52:00,760 --> 00:52:02,060
This is zone retail.

754
00:52:03,460 --> 00:52:14,100
We, and I was mentioned the previous piece that we're rezoning or, you know, getting better

755
00:52:14,100 --> 00:52:20,220
zoning for the property because we want to be consistent with our master plan and the

756
00:52:20,220 --> 00:52:22,060
master plan calls for retail.

757
00:52:24,440 --> 00:52:29,440
There was Driftwood Gallery, which was right by this property, which was retail, which

758
00:52:29,440 --> 00:52:29,980
is now a day.

759
00:52:30,000 --> 00:52:43,360
Daycare. There was the appliance store, which is now a daycare. We have a bank, which is now being asked to be an adult daycare.

760
00:52:44,060 --> 00:52:53,800
And I guess from an administration's perspective when these come kind of before you, before they even go to P and Z, and this is being aware,

761
00:52:56,100 --> 00:52:59,440
I guess what is the point of us having this zone retail,

762
00:53:00,000 --> 00:53:08,920
if we just keep giving conditional use permits for anything that kind of comes down the pipe.

763
00:53:09,620 --> 00:53:15,760
You know, this is not in any way related to Mrs. King or the business she wants.

764
00:53:15,920 --> 00:53:20,600
It's just we have zoning for a reason because there's certain things we want in certain areas

765
00:53:20,600 --> 00:53:22,220
because we think that's what's best for the community.

766
00:53:22,740 --> 00:53:26,460
So I guess a question would be from an administration perspective

767
00:53:26,460 --> 00:53:39,500
Why would us granting this conditional use permit be good for our community and how is that consistent with our master plan for what we want for certain areas throughout the country?

768
00:53:40,340 --> 00:53:41,560
For our community.

769
00:53:43,380 --> 00:53:45,080
Yeah, please.

770
00:53:46,160 --> 00:53:54,980
I think the push and pull with the master plan is it sets forth a vision as guided by the community and it's aspirational.

771
00:53:54,980 --> 00:54:03,960
But what we recognize is that there are then on the ground needs that need to be met on a daily basis.

772
00:54:04,300 --> 00:54:13,320
So when we talk about child daycares, one of our fastest growing segments in the city is single female head of household.

773
00:54:14,520 --> 00:54:23,920
That is a very real need for child daycare in order to maintain a full time job and raise a family.

774
00:54:23,920 --> 00:54:27,900
that is a service that helps support a young family grow.

775
00:54:28,540 --> 00:54:31,240
When we talk about adult care facilities,

776
00:54:32,240 --> 00:54:33,780
there are the development only disabled

777
00:54:34,540 --> 00:54:37,000
who are a wonderful rich part of our community

778
00:54:37,000 --> 00:54:39,360
and we need to make sure that we are providing services

779
00:54:40,140 --> 00:54:41,960
and supporting the caregivers

780
00:54:41,960 --> 00:54:45,400
who are in the community doing this work.

781
00:54:46,020 --> 00:54:48,280
I think it's a valid question to say

782
00:54:48,280 --> 00:54:50,560
are we worried about maybe an over-concentration

783
00:54:50,560 --> 00:54:52,860
and that's something that we've been working on

784
00:54:52,860 --> 00:54:55,560
with this memo that Councilman told him asked about earlier

785
00:54:55,560 --> 00:54:58,660
is let's help do an environmental scan

786
00:54:58,660 --> 00:55:02,480
of what do the businesses wear their locations,

787
00:55:03,300 --> 00:55:06,760
not all those businesses that are approved by city council

788
00:55:06,760 --> 00:55:09,360
are then coming to fruition.

789
00:55:10,360 --> 00:55:14,300
Some fail for their personal circumstances,

790
00:55:14,620 --> 00:55:17,220
business circumstances, some have building

791
00:55:17,220 --> 00:55:20,060
and housing challenges that they can't overcome.

792
00:55:21,020 --> 00:55:22,840
So I want to be clear that not every approval

793
00:55:22,840 --> 00:55:28,400
that comes before you ultimately sees itself to reality as far as a business opening.

794
00:55:29,320 --> 00:55:34,360
I think the other piece is this use as a conditional use is unique in our zoning code.

795
00:55:35,000 --> 00:55:41,380
This is one that councils before have said we want to be the final arbiter in our planning

796
00:55:41,380 --> 00:55:47,220
and zoning code as opposed to allowing planning and zoning to authorize the conditional use.

797
00:55:47,220 --> 00:56:05,260
So, this particular type of use is unique because previous Councils have said, we want to be the ones to review this use, unlike other conditional uses which commonly go before planning and zoning commission, and you don't ever see because they don't require council approval after that.

798
00:56:05,260 --> 00:56:12,760
So I think that's a valid question to kind of struggle with and this is a question that

799
00:56:12,760 --> 00:56:17,900
planning and zoning commission struggles with with every conditional use ask is how does it fit

800
00:56:17,900 --> 00:56:24,820
into our commercial districts or whatever district we're talking about and so this is a very good

801
00:56:24,820 --> 00:56:30,040
question but it's one that's made on an application by application basis. So when this goes before

802
00:56:30,040 --> 00:56:31,440
or something in planning and zoning.

803
00:56:32,360 --> 00:56:34,060
Is there a staff report for the administration

804
00:56:34,060 --> 00:56:36,980
that is presented to planning and zoning?

805
00:56:37,720 --> 00:56:38,700
Mr. Chair, yes, there is.

806
00:56:39,560 --> 00:56:41,460
And was it the administration's perspective

807
00:56:41,460 --> 00:56:45,020
for suggested that they approved this?

808
00:56:45,160 --> 00:56:46,420
Was that the recommendation administration

809
00:56:46,420 --> 00:56:47,240
to approve this?

810
00:56:47,460 --> 00:56:51,600
Mr. Chair, no, this was submitted without a recommendation

811
00:56:52,440 --> 00:56:55,900
because ultimately the planning and zoning code sets

812
00:56:55,900 --> 00:56:58,540
across a pretty detailed list

813
00:56:58,540 --> 00:57:04,900
of general criteria for conditional uses and this is a use that the commission has to

814
00:57:04,900 --> 00:57:10,440
poke in pride if you will. So the staff did not provide a recommendation for adoption or

815
00:57:10,440 --> 00:57:15,820
against adoption. Okay. Any questions from Council?

816
00:57:24,280 --> 00:57:26,540
Yeah, Council Montana. Thank you,

817
00:57:27,020 --> 00:57:34,640
Jim. To Director Pat, if this just a question, if this was located downtown would this have

818
00:57:34,640 --> 00:57:39,680
approved. Mr. Chair, the council person, I can't answer that question.

819
00:57:41,740 --> 00:57:42,440
The conditional

820
00:57:42,440 --> 00:57:49,020
use approval section is specific for review on each site. So it would depend on what

821
00:57:49,020 --> 00:57:51,100
the site looks like in the downtown area.

822
00:57:53,730 --> 00:57:56,210
So what I was saying, the same scenario.

823
00:57:58,550 --> 00:58:02,410
The same building, I mean, the same. What you

824
00:58:02,410 --> 00:58:07,910
what I hear and approve this the same as you doing that.

825
00:58:08,230 --> 00:58:11,290
Mr. Chair, the Councilperson, I honestly cannot answer that.

826
00:58:11,430 --> 00:58:17,650
It's the Commission's recommendation and I can't answer for the Commission.

827
00:58:22,960 --> 00:58:23,740
Okay, everyone.

828
00:58:24,400 --> 00:58:27,020
This is what is before us.

829
00:58:27,780 --> 00:58:29,780
This is a first reading.

830
00:58:29,780 --> 00:58:30,860
First reading.

831
00:58:32,060 --> 00:58:34,220
I don't know if anybody has any suggestions, Councilman Cosper.

832
00:58:36,140 --> 00:58:36,620
Thank you, Chair.

833
00:58:36,940 --> 00:58:37,040
Yes.

834
00:58:37,120 --> 00:58:39,660
I'd like to make a motion to send this to a second reading.

835
00:58:40,940 --> 00:58:41,120
Okay.

836
00:58:41,160 --> 00:58:41,560
Thank you.

837
00:58:41,620 --> 00:58:42,020
I have a motion.

838
00:58:42,300 --> 00:58:50,160
I have a second by Councilman with Hill Law on Favor and you're posed, seeing none.

839
00:58:50,580 --> 00:58:52,120
Any discussion on this motion?

840
00:58:54,480 --> 00:58:55,360
Councilman Tolton.

841
00:58:57,280 --> 00:58:57,320
Okay.

842
00:58:57,480 --> 00:58:59,460
Well, I just want to make sure I'm understanding clearly.

843
00:58:59,560 --> 00:59:00,660
This has to go to three readings.

844
00:59:00,660 --> 00:59:03,340
This does not have to do it. It also is a resolution.

845
00:59:03,820 --> 00:59:04,640
Okay, so that's obvious.

846
00:59:04,800 --> 00:59:06,880
The ordinance that is attached to it.

847
00:59:06,920 --> 00:59:08,020
That had to go three times.

848
00:59:08,020 --> 00:59:09,000
You have to go three times.

849
00:59:11,920 --> 00:59:16,980
And I think there was some information that members of Council requested regarding.

850
00:59:18,100 --> 00:59:18,480
Okay.

851
00:59:18,760 --> 00:59:21,760
So a few things related to this.

852
00:59:22,560 --> 00:59:22,700
Okay.

853
00:59:23,120 --> 00:59:23,620
Okay. That's clear.

854
00:59:23,840 --> 00:59:24,480
That's clear.

855
00:59:24,720 --> 00:59:26,140
Any other questions on the motion?

856
00:59:28,400 --> 00:59:29,620
Okay. Motion closed debate.

857
00:59:30,140 --> 00:59:32,860
motion by Hannah, second by Greshamol and favor.

858
00:59:32,900 --> 00:59:33,100
Hi.

859
00:59:33,780 --> 00:59:34,800
Thank you, Council Clerk.

860
00:59:35,020 --> 00:59:36,500
Please call the roll on setting this resolution

861
00:59:36,500 --> 00:59:37,560
to a second reading.

862
00:59:38,820 --> 00:59:38,940
Hannah?

863
00:59:39,660 --> 00:59:39,940
Yes.

864
00:59:40,620 --> 00:59:41,060
What'sella?

865
00:59:41,240 --> 00:59:41,660
Yes.

866
00:59:41,960 --> 00:59:42,260
Hile?

867
00:59:42,660 --> 00:59:42,900
Yes.

868
00:59:43,360 --> 00:59:43,600
Tanner?

869
00:59:43,940 --> 00:59:44,240
Yes.

870
00:59:44,900 --> 00:59:45,300
Toulton?

871
00:59:45,460 --> 00:59:45,700
No.

872
00:59:47,460 --> 00:59:47,900
Gresham?

873
00:59:48,280 --> 00:59:48,720
Yes.

874
00:59:52,660 --> 00:59:54,980
Motion to send to a second reading test.

875
00:59:55,540 --> 00:59:56,060
Thank you.

876
00:59:56,080 --> 00:59:58,320
So this will be heard again at the next city council meeting.

877
00:59:58,320 --> 00:59:59,760
I'm...

878
01:00:00,180 --> 01:00:13,380
I met two weeks, two, October 5th. Yes, October 5th. Thank you. Councillor Clerk, please read the fifth agenda item into the record.

879
01:00:14,640 --> 01:00:27,340
Ordnance 109-26 and ordinance to establish a municipal arboretum in Memorial Park in the area commonly known as the Oak Grove.

880
01:00:27,980 --> 01:00:33,960
Motion for approval to begin the discussion. Motion by Tolton, seconded by Tanner

881
01:00:33,960 --> 01:00:38,920
Allen-Fever. Thank you. We'll go to the sponsor of this legislation, Councilwoman

882
01:00:38,920 --> 01:00:39,220
and Hannah.

883
01:00:40,680 --> 01:00:46,960
Thank you, Chair. The purpose of this legislation is to declare the area in Memorial Park that

884
01:00:46,960 --> 01:00:53,840
is commonly known as an Oak Grove as a municipal arboretum. This has been an area that the

885
01:00:53,840 --> 01:00:59,820
the CHA3 Commission has been working on for several years and has a plan to continue to work

886
01:00:59,820 --> 01:01:06,580
on this for several more years to regenerate that oak grove. And so by doing a arboretum

887
01:01:06,580 --> 01:01:12,440
it allows us to provide education and use this as an alerting experience but also to protect

888
01:01:12,440 --> 01:01:19,040
that area and to make that into an actual oak grove with young saplings that can continue on.

889
01:01:19,040 --> 01:01:25,520
because currently the trees right there are closer toward the end of their life span than

890
01:01:25,520 --> 01:01:30,480
and they're having issues getting them to regenerate. So this is something the shade tree

891
01:01:30,480 --> 01:01:37,500
commission has been working on. If there's no discussion on this, I would like make a motion

892
01:01:37,500 --> 01:01:43,160
to send it to committee. So sending it to the environmental stewardship and sustainability committee

893
01:01:43,160 --> 01:01:57,880
for hearing and that way we can go in more on what the plan is for the Oak Grove, how this fits in with the city's past and what its future looks like in the reasons why she would like to continue this work.

894
01:01:57,880 --> 01:02:03,560
Thank you. I do have a motion to send it to the committee. I have a motion. I have a second by

895
01:02:03,560 --> 01:02:07,740
Wittillah. All in favor. I have any discussion on the motion.

896
01:02:10,150 --> 01:02:10,850
Seeing none motion

897
01:02:10,850 --> 01:02:16,290
to close debate. Motion by Gresham. Seconded by Highell. All in favor. I have a

898
01:02:16,290 --> 01:02:21,620
opposed. Seeing none of council clerk, please call a roll on sending this ordinance to the

899
01:02:21,620 --> 01:02:25,140
and Environmental and Sustainable Committee.

900
01:02:26,120 --> 01:02:27,220
What's Ella?

901
01:02:28,460 --> 01:02:28,880
Ile.

902
01:02:29,040 --> 01:02:29,360
Yes.

903
01:02:29,720 --> 01:02:30,040
Tanner.

904
01:02:31,520 --> 01:02:31,720
Yes.

905
01:02:32,300 --> 01:02:32,640
Toulton.

906
01:02:33,680 --> 01:02:34,120
Gretchen.

907
01:02:34,360 --> 01:02:34,700
Yes.

908
01:02:35,120 --> 01:02:35,860
Cowsgriff.

909
01:02:36,280 --> 01:02:36,480
Yes.

910
01:02:36,820 --> 01:02:37,060
Anna.

911
01:02:37,380 --> 01:02:37,700
Yes.

912
01:02:38,680 --> 01:02:46,200
Motion to send to the Environmental Stewardship and Sustainability Committee has passed.

913
01:02:46,280 --> 01:02:47,440
There it is.

914
01:02:47,440 --> 01:02:52,040
All right, that concludes our legislative agenda for this evening.

915
01:02:52,200 --> 01:02:54,060
We'll now move on to council persons comments.

916
01:02:54,960 --> 01:02:59,980
And tonight we will start with the Honorable Ward 1 Councilman, Wallace Tanner.

917
01:03:07,390 --> 01:03:12,990
First, I would want to comment on this, but I change my mind.

918
01:03:13,370 --> 01:03:21,590
Due to recent events that has happened in Euclid, and I received an email, regardless

919
01:03:21,590 --> 01:03:30,210
to some of the violence that had taken place last week, and I want to say to the residents

920
01:03:30,210 --> 01:03:38,590
in the audience and the residents at home, the email I have received stated that we as

921
01:03:38,590 --> 01:03:47,690
councils and the administration turned our backs and that we were changing the city into

922
01:03:47,690 --> 01:03:51,610
another city that we all know that I do not want to recall.

923
01:03:52,810 --> 01:04:03,870
My reply to that is, as a soldier, when you attack one foxhole and you do nothing about it,

924
01:04:04,170 --> 01:04:08,830
then when that enemy gets done with that foxhole, they're coming to your foxhole.

925
01:04:09,890 --> 01:04:16,150
So what I'm saying is that to the residents that are stating that we do nothing, when you

926
01:04:16,150 --> 01:04:22,910
notice that and can call out what has happened to another city and you did not do anything

927
01:04:22,910 --> 01:04:30,270
to stop it there. Your justice guilty as not trying to do anything. So when it reaches your

928
01:04:30,270 --> 01:04:37,330
front door, now you want the police department, the City Council, the administration to do something

929
01:04:37,330 --> 01:04:43,150
about it. When you should have done something about it, when you first recognize that it was a

930
01:04:43,150 --> 01:04:51,070
problem in another city. It's just like COVID. COVID was overseas and nobody cared about it.

931
01:04:51,450 --> 01:04:57,070
Then it reached down the United States. Then everybody then started throwing their hands up.

932
01:04:57,370 --> 01:05:05,170
So I'll tell a residence if you see something in an area that's not your area. You either

933
01:05:05,170 --> 01:05:10,410
have to do something about it because I'm telling you right then and there is coming your way.

934
01:05:11,870 --> 01:05:18,850
So, with that in mind, see something say something, and once it hits your door, if you don't

935
01:05:18,850 --> 01:05:23,550
want to do anything about it, then deal with it the way you've been done with it.

936
01:05:23,770 --> 01:05:24,410
Thank you.

937
01:05:25,570 --> 01:05:26,090
Thank you.

938
01:05:26,450 --> 01:05:27,110
Councilman Tolker.

939
01:05:30,910 --> 01:05:31,710
Thank you, Mr. President.

940
01:05:32,950 --> 01:05:34,870
This is a couple of quick things.

941
01:05:36,570 --> 01:05:40,010
Again, kind of addressing the tragedy that happened in our city.

942
01:05:40,010 --> 01:05:48,850
I want to say my condolences to the family of the slain youth and all those that were injured and impacted by that situation.

943
01:05:51,170 --> 01:05:52,110
And just a quick comment.

944
01:05:52,210 --> 01:05:57,570
It kind of lends to, again, what my colleague said, we all have to get involved.

945
01:05:57,770 --> 01:06:00,050
We all have to help try to make this community better.

946
01:06:01,110 --> 01:06:08,750
One thing, for the administration, we had brought forth a group of violent interruptors to the city.

947
01:06:08,750 --> 01:06:10,330
some years, a couple of years back.

948
01:06:10,850 --> 01:06:12,450
We didn't do anything with that.

949
01:06:12,930 --> 01:06:16,330
I would ask that we look at that again,

950
01:06:17,310 --> 01:06:19,790
and see if we can bring that group back to the city.

951
01:06:20,070 --> 01:06:21,950
It's seen if we can help mitigate

952
01:06:21,950 --> 01:06:23,430
some of these issues, some of these problems.

953
01:06:23,970 --> 01:06:25,290
I think they would have been tremendous help

954
01:06:25,290 --> 01:06:28,930
at the hospital that night also to tap down

955
01:06:28,930 --> 01:06:30,510
on some of the confusion and the disruption

956
01:06:30,510 --> 01:06:31,130
at the hospital.

957
01:06:31,310 --> 01:06:34,470
So I think, as a city, if we can look at that again,

958
01:06:34,470 --> 01:06:39,570
and entertain that. Also to law director,

959
01:06:41,670 --> 01:06:45,770
have we, particularly this instance, but have we

960
01:06:45,770 --> 01:06:51,430
charged a one, any parents in the last year concerning our parent responsibility ordinance?

961
01:06:54,880 --> 01:06:58,900
Mr. Chairman, to the council, I'm not feeling aware, but I don't know that. I'm sure I can look

962
01:06:58,900 --> 01:07:04,680
into that much enough. Okay. Okay. I mean, we put it on the books and we want to start using

963
01:07:04,680 --> 01:07:10,220
if we can. Director Mahoney, I'm going to hit everybody tonight.

964
01:07:12,440 --> 01:07:13,440
Any up there, I know you

965
01:07:13,440 --> 01:07:18,020
have sent me email, and I have to apologize. I think I deleted it and cleared my delete files

966
01:07:18,020 --> 01:07:19,560
on the Shardon Road.

967
01:07:21,640 --> 01:07:25,880
Mr. Chairman to the Councilman, no update on Shardon Road.

968
01:07:25,880 --> 01:07:27,320
Alright, then I can offer you.

969
01:07:27,580 --> 01:07:28,380
Okay, okay.

970
01:07:29,500 --> 01:07:29,980
Um, and the r-

971
01:07:30,000 --> 01:07:30,840
Mr. Stephens,

972
01:07:34,740 --> 01:07:49,460
couple of council meetings ago, a resident mentioned something about offering free membership to seniors. Is that something, a direct set of something we can still look into, I think they say Medicaid or Medicare pays. Is that something that we can add or we look into that?

973
01:07:49,460 --> 01:07:53,960
At this time, or Mr. Chair, to the council,

974
01:07:54,120 --> 01:07:57,520
at this time, we're not pursuing that option.

975
01:07:58,660 --> 01:08:05,760
We currently have 426 memberships of which 80% of those memberships are seniors.

976
01:08:07,100 --> 01:08:13,320
We charge our seniors $10 a month, we're $75 per year.

977
01:08:14,000 --> 01:08:18,460
We are not a private entity that operates like that.

978
01:08:20,980 --> 01:08:27,760
not to say that that's not something that we may not, that we might, we'll consider it somewhere

979
01:08:27,760 --> 01:08:33,760
down the road possibly with, but at this moment, the seniors are what's carrying in the

980
01:08:33,760 --> 01:08:34,660
rex center.

981
01:08:35,640 --> 01:08:41,180
Oh, okay, yeah, I know I'm one of that, but anyway, and the last thing, is there any possibility

982
01:08:41,180 --> 01:08:46,980
to update the membership fee process to where it can be automatic deduction because I've

983
01:08:46,980 --> 01:08:50,660
That reminds me of my wife went and I remember she had a lap so we had to return.

984
01:08:51,460 --> 01:08:54,820
I'm just a chair to the council when that was updated two weeks ago.

985
01:08:55,420 --> 01:09:01,740
So if you come in you can let someone know it front desk that you want it to go automatic

986
01:09:01,740 --> 01:09:02,980
and they can do that.

987
01:09:03,600 --> 01:09:03,700
Perfect.

988
01:09:04,360 --> 01:09:04,420
Perfect.

989
01:09:04,420 --> 01:09:04,740
Thank you.

990
01:09:05,540 --> 01:09:06,020
Thank you.

991
01:09:06,240 --> 01:09:09,460
Thank you chair.

992
01:09:10,140 --> 01:09:15,060
I also wanted to send my own condolences to the family of the young man

993
01:09:15,060 --> 01:09:20,460
on who lost his life over this past a week.

994
01:09:21,260 --> 01:09:23,860
I also wanted to remind everyone

995
01:09:23,860 --> 01:09:26,280
to all I'm check your voter registration.

996
01:09:27,040 --> 01:09:30,800
All on the last day, the register of the vote is October 5th.

997
01:09:31,060 --> 01:09:33,100
All I'm for the November 3rd election.

998
01:09:34,060 --> 01:09:36,320
All I'm, and also I wanted to say thank you

999
01:09:36,320 --> 01:09:39,040
to Emani United, all I'm Church of Christ,

1000
01:09:39,480 --> 01:09:43,060
for hosting a voter information form,

1001
01:09:43,060 --> 01:09:47,420
where they had our Congresswoman Shantel Brown on there,

1002
01:09:47,660 --> 01:09:51,160
and also had former Ohio Supreme Court Justice

1003
01:09:51,160 --> 01:09:53,940
Middle East Stewart, and also attended,

1004
01:09:54,420 --> 01:09:57,760
and, oh, I'm some more excellent on guest state,

1005
01:09:57,880 --> 01:10:02,000
explaining why it's so important to get out to vote.

1006
01:10:02,720 --> 01:10:05,700
Why is important to make sure you check your voter registration,

1007
01:10:08,260 --> 01:10:10,880
and why is important to research any candidate

1008
01:10:10,880 --> 01:10:13,040
that OMW will be on the ballot.

1009
01:10:13,580 --> 01:10:19,320
So I just wanted to say thank you for, thank you to Emani for always stepping in and making

1010
01:10:19,320 --> 01:10:24,840
sure that the community know when it comes to our OMW vote in power.

1011
01:10:25,260 --> 01:10:25,740
Thank you, Chair.

1012
01:10:26,480 --> 01:10:26,900
Thank you.

1013
01:10:27,180 --> 01:10:28,360
Councilman Calzgriff?

1014
01:10:30,000 --> 01:10:30,760
No comments tonight.

1015
01:10:31,100 --> 01:10:31,420
Thank you.

1016
01:10:31,840 --> 01:10:32,600
Councilwoman Adam.

1017
01:10:34,080 --> 01:10:34,640
Thank you, Chair.

1018
01:10:34,980 --> 01:10:39,280
And since we've moved the Ogrove Legislation over to the Environmental Stewardship

1019
01:10:39,280 --> 01:10:40,680
and Sustainability Committee,

1020
01:10:40,680 --> 01:10:45,680
That committee meeting will be Wednesday, October 14th at 630.

1021
01:10:46,540 --> 01:10:47,060
Thank you.

1022
01:10:47,360 --> 01:10:47,800
Thank you.

1023
01:10:48,660 --> 01:10:49,780
Thank you, Mr. Chairman.

1024
01:10:50,480 --> 01:10:51,560
I just like to take the mayor.

1025
01:10:51,560 --> 01:10:55,900
Thank the mayor and the administration for the quick work that's been done so far on the

1026
01:10:55,900 --> 01:10:57,700
dear calling resolution.

1027
01:10:58,140 --> 01:10:59,080
Thank you.

1028
01:10:59,140 --> 01:10:59,900
Thank you.

1029
01:11:00,040 --> 01:11:00,080
Thank you.

1030
01:11:00,360 --> 01:11:01,060
Thank you.

1031
01:11:01,060 --> 01:11:02,460
Yes, a couple of things.

1032
01:11:03,580 --> 01:11:10,700
There's going to be silhouette productions is going to be doing Cinderella.

1033
01:11:11,240 --> 01:11:20,620
and that's going to be October 16th, 17th, 23rd and 24th, so keep those dates open and get some tickets for that.

1034
01:11:20,800 --> 01:11:22,560
They always do a wonderful job.

1035
01:11:23,220 --> 01:11:31,280
I thank you to everybody I had 13 people at the book study that we started on the 10th and I've heard from a few more that are going to be joining.

1036
01:11:31,560 --> 01:11:36,900
So it was a great conversation I'm looking forward to our second conversation on Thursday.

1037
01:11:37,940 --> 01:11:47,160
Tomorrow evening at 7 o'clock at the Rec Center, I'm having a ward meeting, so I hope to see you there.

1038
01:11:49,150 --> 01:11:51,630
I'm a chair to the law director.

1039
01:11:52,110 --> 01:11:56,190
I just saw that there was a new e-bike ordinance done in mentor.

1040
01:11:57,530 --> 01:12:04,070
Have we thought about anything like that when I go back behind the school and memorial park there,

1041
01:12:04,510 --> 01:12:07,910
the e-bikes and the e- scooters, I'm worried somebody's going to die.

1042
01:12:07,910 --> 01:12:13,650
way they turn around the corner so quickly if somebody's backing out they wouldn't possibly see them.

1043
01:12:14,030 --> 01:12:18,630
Kids on handlebars, doubling, no helmets, nothing.

1044
01:12:19,610 --> 01:12:25,430
I'd like to. Mr. Chairman, to the Councilwoman, there has been some discussion with

1045
01:12:26,770 --> 01:12:33,150
the administration as well as some of the off traffic officers with the police department.

1046
01:12:33,150 --> 01:12:40,130
We currently do have restrictions on the electronic, you know, on these type of bikes.

1047
01:12:40,670 --> 01:12:48,090
And at this point, have not felt that it's something that they've seen be an issue.

1048
01:12:49,570 --> 01:12:55,230
One of the challenges that a lot of communities are facing is that the state is not regulated.

1049
01:12:55,230 --> 01:13:03,130
in these bicycles and you see different types of vehicles being used.

1050
01:13:04,130 --> 01:13:07,170
And that's something that we can share with Council of it.

1051
01:13:07,530 --> 01:13:08,910
Something that we want to consider.

1052
01:13:10,690 --> 01:13:10,810
Okay.

1053
01:13:12,150 --> 01:13:17,970
And then Director Stevens as far as the membership in the

1054
01:13:17,970 --> 01:13:22,870
Rec Center, would it be possible to do a survey on hours

1055
01:13:22,870 --> 01:13:28,150
because one of the things that I'm hearing from people who aren't seniors is they would use

1056
01:13:28,150 --> 01:13:33,510
the Rec Center early in the morning like before work, but seven o'clock is just too late for

1057
01:13:33,510 --> 01:13:40,470
that. And I'm wondering if that would pick the numbers up for the Rec Center because if they can't

1058
01:13:40,470 --> 01:13:46,130
if they can't go before work, they're just not going. I mean I know a lot of exercise places are

1059
01:13:46,130 --> 01:13:55,470
busy first thing in the morning. Mr. Chair to the Councilwoman, currently we have three

1060
01:13:55,470 --> 01:14:05,110
full-time people trying to cover 7 a.m. to 9 p.m. we have two program coordinators both

1061
01:14:05,110 --> 01:14:08,970
resigned within two weeks of each other.

1062
01:14:09,790 --> 01:14:17,770
So right now, the hours through the winter will remain a seven a.m.

1063
01:14:18,110 --> 01:14:23,690
or during the week seven a.m. until 10, and we're looking at potentially adjusting

1064
01:14:25,030 --> 01:14:33,950
the weekend hours because those hours are not as busy

1065
01:14:33,950 --> 01:14:42,490
be quite honest. We are bringing on another full-time staff person hopefully within the next

1066
01:14:42,490 --> 01:14:52,150
week or so and starting the process to interview a front desk personnel as well. So once

1067
01:14:52,150 --> 01:14:57,150
we get staffing to where we can cover the current hours

1068
01:14:57,150 --> 01:14:59,570
then we'll consider as...

1069
01:15:00,000 --> 01:15:11,560
I was just suggesting a survey, so we could see if that is an issue. I mean, people have mentioned it to me, but I don't know how many people feel that way, but if we did a survey, it might help us figure that out.

1070
01:15:11,680 --> 01:15:13,220
Sure. We can do that.

1071
01:15:14,300 --> 01:15:15,260
Thank you.

1072
01:15:16,220 --> 01:15:25,080
Thank you. I conclude the City Council meeting for this evening with that look for a motion to adjourn motion by Cowsberg, second by Hannibal in favor.

1073
01:15:25,340 --> 01:15:27,020
All right. We are adjourned. Thank you.
