1
00:00:20,360 --> 00:00:21,000
Please

2
00:00:24,840 --> 00:00:40,360
have a roll call. Yes. Mr. Chapman. Ms. Guthrie. Here. Mr. Harry Navar. Here. Mr. Bunkarner. Mr. Ziegler. Yes. Miss Raceus. Here. All right. Okay.

3
00:00:44,420 --> 00:00:45,620
So I believe we

4
00:00:56,730 --> 00:01:02,190
So first up, we have a presentation from Stacey Hans from Kentucky Transportation Cabinet

5
00:01:02,190 --> 00:01:06,750
regarding current and upcoming Kentucky Transportation Cabinet projects and initiatives

6
00:01:06,750 --> 00:01:07,970
affecting love low.

7
00:01:11,540 --> 00:01:15,960
Good evening everyone, as was stated, my name is Stacey Hans and just a little bit of an update

8
00:01:15,960 --> 00:01:16,920
to the agenda.

9
00:01:17,620 --> 00:01:24,020
I'm here really to focus on the existing Bridge Bridge corridor projects, not all of the other

10
00:01:24,020 --> 00:01:25,700
to my PC issues within the area.

11
00:01:26,160 --> 00:01:27,860
So, really am just focusing

12
00:01:27,860 --> 00:01:29,780
on the Brent Spence Bridge corridor project.

13
00:01:30,860 --> 00:01:32,100
Obviously it's under construction.

14
00:01:32,280 --> 00:01:34,640
Now, I do have a PowerPoint presentation.

15
00:01:35,240 --> 00:01:37,280
You'll be turning my back as you all,

16
00:01:37,480 --> 00:01:40,240
but I do feel like with everything that's going on,

17
00:01:40,760 --> 00:01:41,960
the visuals that are being provided,

18
00:01:42,120 --> 00:01:44,300
I think will help aid in the conversation.

19
00:01:46,020 --> 00:01:47,160
Let's see, there we go.

20
00:01:47,620 --> 00:01:49,340
All right, so just a quick project overview,

21
00:01:49,340 --> 00:01:51,060
and thank you guys for being flexible

22
00:01:51,060 --> 00:01:53,060
because I know we've done a different,

23
00:01:53,060 --> 00:01:55,460
a couple different iterations for the presentation.

24
00:01:56,120 --> 00:01:58,500
But just as a reminder of the project overview,

25
00:01:58,820 --> 00:02:00,380
the Prince Prince Bridge corridor project

26
00:02:00,380 --> 00:02:03,700
in its entirety is approximately eight miles.

27
00:02:04,060 --> 00:02:07,620
So three miles in Ohio, five miles in Kentucky,

28
00:02:08,200 --> 00:02:12,060
with the construction of a new companion bridge immediately

29
00:02:12,490 --> 00:02:14,840
to the west of the existing Prince Prince Bridge,

30
00:02:15,100 --> 00:02:17,940
and rehabilitation of the existing Prince Prince Bridge,

31
00:02:18,120 --> 00:02:20,460
taking that current four-lane configuration,

32
00:02:20,460 --> 00:02:27,900
being able to re-stripe it back to three lanes with the introduction of shoulders back to its original design.

33
00:02:28,160 --> 00:02:35,380
So the Brisbane Bridge was originally designed to carry 80,000 vehicles per day because of the increase in traffic.

34
00:02:35,380 --> 00:02:38,460
It was re-striped. The lanes were actually narrowed to 11 foot lanes.

35
00:02:38,800 --> 00:02:43,180
If you drive it on a daily basis like I do, you know it's kind of a white knuckle area, right?

36
00:02:44,120 --> 00:02:50,360
So with this project, we are able to recapture those shoulders and

37
00:02:50,360 --> 00:02:57,080
restripe it into the three-link configuration and the existing Prince Prince Ridge is what will carry the local traffic.

38
00:02:57,380 --> 00:03:10,460
So on the slide there, you see that we are constructing a CD system or what we call a collector distributor system between 12th street on the Kentucky side, so right there's you're going down the cut in the hill, all the way to

39
00:03:10,460 --> 00:03:16,600
So, Glen Street in Ohio, and at that point, your decision is if I'm going through traffic,

40
00:03:16,860 --> 00:03:18,220
I'm going to go on the new bridge.

41
00:03:18,580 --> 00:03:23,420
I'm going to be able to use our new double deck structure carrying five lanes of interstate

42
00:03:23,420 --> 00:03:27,040
traffic in the northbound on the top and five lanes on the bottom.

43
00:03:28,020 --> 00:03:33,740
If I want to go to Covington or Cincinnati, I will enter that collector distributor system

44
00:03:33,740 --> 00:03:37,100
and that's where I can get off into Covington and that's where I can get off into Cincinnati.

45
00:03:37,100 --> 00:03:39,440
that traffic will also be coming from those areas

46
00:03:39,840 --> 00:03:41,560
on that collector distributor system.

47
00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:44,160
So the intent of that is to improve safety.

48
00:03:44,840 --> 00:03:47,280
By having the traffic coming in and off and off

49
00:03:47,280 --> 00:03:49,800
the interstates on the collector distributor

50
00:03:50,160 --> 00:03:53,060
that allows the interstate traffic

51
00:03:53,060 --> 00:03:54,720
to have more of a free flow condition.

52
00:03:55,200 --> 00:03:57,380
If you've been in like the Chicago area

53
00:03:57,380 --> 00:03:58,680
where you have your express lanes

54
00:03:58,680 --> 00:04:00,900
and your local lanes, very similar concept

55
00:04:00,900 --> 00:04:02,680
to improve the safety aspect of the corridor.

56
00:04:03,420 --> 00:04:08,140
We are also improving bicycle and pedestrian facilities.

57
00:04:08,480 --> 00:04:13,020
You know, when we're talking about this corridor, a lot of times we talk about the main line or the interstate system.

58
00:04:13,520 --> 00:04:18,600
But there are communities underneath and adjacent to the corridor.

59
00:04:19,000 --> 00:04:23,060
And we are working with, you know, in our situation, the Steve, coming to on our side,

60
00:04:23,360 --> 00:04:27,520
to look at opportunities to improve the multimodal cross connectivity.

61
00:04:27,520 --> 00:04:31,940
For example, improve my sickle facilities, improve pedestrian facilities.

62
00:04:32,220 --> 00:04:38,480
If you've been in Goble Park and walking to the west side, you know that underpass at the southern end at night streets pretty dark.

63
00:04:38,480 --> 00:04:41,920
We're going to improve lighting in that area, just one example.

64
00:04:43,120 --> 00:04:47,860
As we continue on, this is just a pretty picture of what it's going to look like to cross the bridge at the nighttime.

65
00:04:48,600 --> 00:04:51,240
It is a double deck cable stay structure.

66
00:04:51,240 --> 00:04:55,760
We have several types of bridges in the northern Kentucky Cincinnati area.

67
00:04:56,060 --> 00:05:00,600
We do not have a cable stay, but this cable stay is even a little bit more unique than some

68
00:05:00,600 --> 00:05:04,540
of the others that you've seen up and down the Ohio River on the Kentucky borders.

69
00:05:05,060 --> 00:05:09,740
It is an independent deck to tiered cable stay bridge.

70
00:05:10,300 --> 00:05:15,100
And what that means is if you've seen some of the others, the decks themselves are actually

71
00:05:15,100 --> 00:05:16,500
connected by steel members.

72
00:05:16,500 --> 00:05:23,840
So very much like driving our existing corridor or existing bridge when you're on the bottom deck, you feel like a little tight.

73
00:05:24,080 --> 00:05:31,240
It's impeding your view. The cables is all that's connecting that lower deck on our bridge. So you have a little more of an open view.

74
00:05:32,240 --> 00:05:38,600
Just as I said, we are trying to make it a little more unique to our area. Just taking it up just one more notch.

75
00:05:39,640 --> 00:05:42,260
I want to talk quickly about the work in progress.

76
00:05:42,600 --> 00:05:45,400
I'm sure that you guys are very familiar.

77
00:05:45,800 --> 00:05:48,160
I should say very familiar with the work that's going on

78
00:05:48,160 --> 00:05:51,360
in the exits to and from Covington right now.

79
00:05:51,820 --> 00:05:54,200
But just a little bit of an update on where we are.

80
00:05:54,640 --> 00:06:00,560
And I want to highlight that if you're familiar with this picture

81
00:06:00,560 --> 00:06:02,820
or what you've seen in this picture, it seems a little bit of

82
00:06:02,820 --> 00:06:04,960
may seem a little bit out of sorts.

83
00:06:05,400 --> 00:06:09,040
because that is the Pete Rose ballcat at the Clay White Bayley.

84
00:06:09,360 --> 00:06:11,800
I assure you we're not building the bridge at the Clay White Bayley.

85
00:06:11,980 --> 00:06:14,460
It is just adjacent to the existing Brentsman's bridge.

86
00:06:14,640 --> 00:06:18,120
But this is a tied air on the area for the barges

87
00:06:18,120 --> 00:06:20,280
to help deliver equipment and material.

88
00:06:20,660 --> 00:06:22,620
So where it's a staging area, it's being constructed.

89
00:06:23,200 --> 00:06:25,360
It's really actually pretty close to being done,

90
00:06:25,600 --> 00:06:28,040
so that we can start receiving material and receiving equipment.

91
00:06:28,580 --> 00:06:31,700
You see some of the cranes, some of the cranes have already been brought in from that area.

92
00:06:32,560 --> 00:06:36,860
It will stay out there throughout the duration of the project, but it is just a holding area.

93
00:06:37,360 --> 00:06:41,400
All of the construction is happening just west of the existing Brent Spence Bridge.

94
00:06:42,100 --> 00:06:46,680
As far as roadway and ramp improvements that we have going on, we have the reconstruction

95
00:06:46,680 --> 00:06:50,860
of Bullock, which is the local connection on the west side of the interstate, of course.

96
00:06:51,420 --> 00:06:56,980
But that ties directly into Martin Luther King, 12th Street entrance ramp to get on the interstate.

97
00:06:56,980 --> 00:07:03,480
So that's closed right now as well as the MLK northbound ramp to the coming to an areas.

98
00:07:03,940 --> 00:07:10,220
We are looking to get block reconstructed, be able to reopen those ramps.

99
00:07:10,680 --> 00:07:14,840
The reason that we're doing that if we're thinking about the corridor itself, we've started

100
00:07:14,840 --> 00:07:15,840
on the west side.

101
00:07:16,100 --> 00:07:22,660
We've moved those local streets a little bit further to the west and re-aligned those ramps

102
00:07:22,660 --> 00:07:24,020
to the future configuration.

103
00:07:24,020 --> 00:07:28,260
Our next steps will be to do the same thing on the east side of the interstate.

104
00:07:28,840 --> 00:07:31,620
So move Simon Kittenway further to the east.

105
00:07:32,040 --> 00:07:36,460
Will Lockwell be open, Simon Kittenway will be closed to allow that wider footprint in

106
00:07:36,460 --> 00:07:39,580
there, and then we will start working on the main line and the bridges in that area.

107
00:07:40,020 --> 00:07:44,900
So just a little bit of fourth thought into what that phasing is going to look like as we

108
00:07:44,900 --> 00:07:45,400
move forward.

109
00:07:46,480 --> 00:07:51,020
And then a really a lot of the other work that we have going on right now are utility

110
00:07:51,020 --> 00:07:56,740
updates when we're looking at water line replacements, sanitary sewer, some of the just infrastructure

111
00:07:56,740 --> 00:08:01,420
improvements that we need to do before we can start the rest of the roadway. Obviously, a lot of

112
00:08:01,420 --> 00:08:07,040
work going on in Google Park right now, that's to help with soil stabilization. If you've built things

113
00:08:07,040 --> 00:08:12,060
in this area, you know, we don't have the best soil, but we have a lot of roadway work that's going

114
00:08:12,060 --> 00:08:20,600
on in there, so we are actually doing mechanisms that will help stabilize that soil. So some pilings,

115
00:08:21,020 --> 00:08:29,060
lot of just firming it up. And then last but not least is the red detour of the realignment

116
00:08:29,060 --> 00:08:30,300
of the Kentucky Riverwalk.

117
00:08:32,330 --> 00:08:37,110
I'm sorry, I apologize. So, you know, I've spoken about some of the

118
00:08:37,110 --> 00:08:42,410
activities that are going on, but I just wanted to show one more visual of what is currently open.

119
00:08:42,650 --> 00:08:47,230
What you like to say that green means go. So green is what you have open and what you have access to

120
00:08:47,230 --> 00:08:52,010
right now. Red is showing what is closed. You can see at the bottom that is all of the work

121
00:08:52,010 --> 00:08:59,330
associated to that Bullock Avenue on the west side, as well as the access to and from Martin Luther King.

122
00:09:00,010 --> 00:09:04,890
We have what you see on number six is the local street for night street.

123
00:09:05,150 --> 00:09:09,830
That's to help with access to the park, to the work that's going on there right now.

124
00:09:10,250 --> 00:09:14,470
And also to prevent using that as a cutthroat because it is a residential area.

125
00:09:14,630 --> 00:09:18,070
We don't want a lot of traffic filtering through there that would not otherwise be there.

126
00:09:18,850 --> 00:09:21,550
And then the only other one that I wanted to point out,

127
00:09:21,550 --> 00:09:28,710
Which I do think is significant for this community is the number seven that we have there and it is not currently closed

128
00:09:28,710 --> 00:09:31,870
But is the seventy one seventy five

129
00:09:32,670 --> 00:09:38,830
Southbound ramp to fifth Street right now when you're coming off of fifth Street in the Southbound direction

130
00:09:38,830 --> 00:09:44,390
You have the option to go west, which is the one I would assume that you guys use most

131
00:09:44,390 --> 00:09:48,950
But you also have the option to go east down into Philadelphia

132
00:09:48,950 --> 00:10:10,970
That ramp will go away as part of the construction of this project, but there's also that local connection in the west to the east, so in the east bound direction from Crescent Avenue to 5th Street, that's that local street underneath, that will also go away during the construction of this, but that access goes away permanently.

133
00:10:10,970 --> 00:10:17,290
So that traffic will be will be routed and utilize third street, which they're looking

134
00:10:17,290 --> 00:10:21,670
coming to is looking to make third street more of that connection of course with all

135
00:10:21,670 --> 00:10:27,110
of the development going on with their former IRS site, their CCR development.

136
00:10:28,010 --> 00:10:31,610
Just as it heads up, like I said, I feel like that was something I wanted to point out to

137
00:10:31,610 --> 00:10:32,250
this community.

138
00:10:32,930 --> 00:10:39,050
That now in the in the bill of condition, the ramp will actually come back and it's a left

139
00:10:39,050 --> 00:10:43,550
hand exit, but I just wanted to highlight that that local street connection goes away.

140
00:10:46,550 --> 00:10:53,930
That's an excellent question, and right now, because Third Street is closed, and Third

141
00:10:53,930 --> 00:10:58,130
Street is closed because of that utility relocation, and we're actively working on that.

142
00:10:58,690 --> 00:11:01,590
When Third Street opens is when Fifth Street will close.

143
00:11:01,750 --> 00:11:05,790
We have to make sure that we provide east-west connectivity, obviously, right?

144
00:11:06,750 --> 00:11:09,970
So we will not close Fifth Street until Third Street's open.

145
00:11:10,570 --> 00:11:15,390
I can't give you an exact date, it will be this fall and I will, I would say it's probably

146
00:11:15,390 --> 00:11:21,310
going to be September, late September timeframe maybe October and we'll see how aggressive

147
00:11:21,310 --> 00:11:22,370
our contractors can be.

148
00:11:22,710 --> 00:11:24,510
All right.

149
00:11:25,110 --> 00:11:30,290
So I just want to confirm that if you say there will be both closures, but there so will be

150
00:11:30,290 --> 00:11:33,650
access to get off in Kevinton, just they'll be one.

151
00:11:34,110 --> 00:11:37,830
Yeah, there will be at one, that's what I, like I said, I think it's important, I can't

152
00:11:37,830 --> 00:11:38,870
really back up with this one.

153
00:11:38,870 --> 00:11:39,250
I'm sorry.

154
00:11:39,790 --> 00:11:41,410
Maybe I can't hold on to it.

155
00:11:42,050 --> 00:11:42,890
You got it right there.

156
00:11:43,090 --> 00:11:43,550
There we go.

157
00:11:44,070 --> 00:11:44,150
No.

158
00:11:48,160 --> 00:11:48,980
There we go.

159
00:11:50,100 --> 00:11:54,440
So the access from 71 South, about 7175 South bound

160
00:11:54,440 --> 00:11:57,460
into the eastbound direction, or excuse me, westbound direction

161
00:11:57,460 --> 00:11:59,400
to present, it stays open.

162
00:12:00,100 --> 00:12:02,940
So you don't have that one, we'll stay open for them.

163
00:12:03,240 --> 00:12:06,620
And it's actually, when we close Fifth Street,

164
00:12:06,880 --> 00:12:08,460
that local connection in that ramp,

165
00:12:08,460 --> 00:12:10,320
that is designed to detour.

166
00:12:10,540 --> 00:12:13,080
The signed detour for everyone entering Covington

167
00:12:13,080 --> 00:12:16,420
will be to go off that ramp, upcress it,

168
00:12:16,480 --> 00:12:19,080
and then across third and then disperse through Covington.

169
00:12:22,870 --> 00:12:24,290
I appreciate you guys asking questions.

170
00:12:24,670 --> 00:12:25,510
It's a lot to absorb.

171
00:12:26,210 --> 00:12:28,630
And when I say it's a lot to absorb, I understand.

172
00:12:29,470 --> 00:12:32,050
And that's why I really want to highlight this slide

173
00:12:32,050 --> 00:12:33,070
as much as anything.

174
00:12:34,490 --> 00:12:37,850
And I may have to go behind you to do this

175
00:12:37,850 --> 00:12:41,690
because it just takes us to a project website.

176
00:12:42,310 --> 00:12:46,470
And I need to get it out of the presentation and onto the website.

177
00:12:46,670 --> 00:12:52,750
So the overall project corridor website is rentspencebridgecordor.com

178
00:12:52,750 --> 00:12:56,850
and there's a lot of knowledge on that website.

179
00:12:56,850 --> 00:12:57,670
I think

180
00:13:36,420 --> 00:13:41,220
it might have changed, you know, it should have been three, I

181
00:13:45,990 --> 00:13:46,890
don't know, it is

182
00:13:46,890 --> 00:13:51,290
no, no, no, should

183
00:13:53,660 --> 00:13:54,500
have happened to it.

184
00:13:55,520 --> 00:14:05,460
If you said technology is great, yeah, it works, yeah, I will try one more time, but I think

185
00:14:05,460 --> 00:14:10,380
if you, yeah, just what I'm talking about, it's going to work, that's what I was going

186
00:14:10,380 --> 00:14:10,680
to say.

187
00:14:10,680 --> 00:14:17,120
So if we have a project website that is for instance bridge corridor dot com, I encourage

188
00:14:17,120 --> 00:14:22,480
you to get on the website on the top. There's a banner of tabs across and one is the travel

189
00:14:22,480 --> 00:14:30,080
on updates. Get on there. If you're looking at it, that's where you're going to get your travel

190
00:14:30,080 --> 00:14:34,200
updates. That's where you're going to get your travel advisories. It is divided out into impacts

191
00:14:34,200 --> 00:14:40,020
in Kentucky and impacts in Ohio. And then even outside of those, it has short term and long term

192
00:14:40,020 --> 00:14:46,740
closures. So I encourage you to get on there. I also encourage you to scroll down

193
00:14:46,740 --> 00:14:50,180
to the bottom of that page and there's an opportunity to sign up for emails

194
00:14:50,180 --> 00:14:55,500
and for text messages. So that's when if there's a major closure you will get an

195
00:14:55,500 --> 00:14:59,700
email blast or you will get a text blast. We just sit one out for an upcoming

196
00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:29,980
So I, so it will give you a vocal hi when you're talking, when you sign up for that. But I promise we're not going to, we're not going to give you overkill on your text messages. I think so far, even with all the work going on, we may have, we're in then maybe like this 7-8 range as far as how many that's gone out. So those are the major closures. But I will also say the other thing that I really wanted to highlight for you all. And I can show you here, just a little bit quickly, yeah. On the website, there is this tabring.

197
00:15:29,980 --> 00:15:38,340
here that says tour project virtual route. That is set up as if you were walking into, I'm sure

198
00:15:38,340 --> 00:15:41,740
we've all been to public meetings before, where you have the boards, you have the displays,

199
00:15:41,960 --> 00:15:47,500
and you're presenting information. That walks you into a virtual setup of that. It's almost set

200
00:15:47,500 --> 00:15:53,060
up like you were at the previous Duke Energy Center. So you have a board in front of you, you have

201
00:15:53,060 --> 00:15:57,660
different things that you can click on to the sides and to the front, that you can click on into

202
00:15:57,660 --> 00:16:01,280
the sides in the front are the fly-through videos. If you guys have seen the fly-through videos

203
00:16:01,280 --> 00:16:06,680
of our core and work, there's the Ohio fly-through, there's the bridge itself, there's the Kentucky

204
00:16:06,680 --> 00:16:10,380
portion, and then you have the entire core part. So you can get in there and you can poke around.

205
00:16:12,120 --> 00:16:17,720
There's also set up as a display in front of you. That display is divided up into the very sections

206
00:16:17,720 --> 00:16:21,960
or components of the project. So there's the Cincinnati side, there's the Main River crossing,

207
00:16:21,960 --> 00:16:27,460
There's the Covington area, there's the Covington Hill area, and then the Port Rite

208
00:16:27,460 --> 00:16:28,100
for Mitchell area.

209
00:16:28,300 --> 00:16:29,500
So you can click on each one of those.

210
00:16:30,120 --> 00:16:33,140
And for each one of those, there's a little button that says plan view.

211
00:16:33,740 --> 00:16:36,560
Plan view will give you the bird's eye view.

212
00:16:36,800 --> 00:16:39,580
So as if you're standing up and looking down on it.

213
00:16:39,800 --> 00:16:41,420
So you can see all of the movements there.

214
00:16:42,540 --> 00:16:48,880
If you click out of that or if you go back to that display board, you're going to see little

215
00:16:48,880 --> 00:16:54,680
pins that have drones on them and some that have cameras on them. If you can click on the drones,

216
00:16:54,920 --> 00:16:59,700
it will give you a 360 view of that area. If you click on the picture, it will give you just a

217
00:16:59,700 --> 00:17:07,480
rendering of what that area looks like in the final configuration. As a project manager for the project,

218
00:17:07,940 --> 00:17:14,260
I use that website on a daily basis. When I'm talking to people, I'm a visual person myself.

219
00:17:15,160 --> 00:17:20,940
It's so much easier to explain things to show what the link configurations are going to be to show what the

220
00:17:20,940 --> 00:17:23,800
It's that Rams are going to look like in the future conditions

221
00:17:23,800 --> 00:17:31,440
So I would encourage you to get on our overall project website and that button has a separate website because it's pretty

222
00:17:31,440 --> 00:17:33,820
It's it's an odd it's an odd kind of

223
00:17:34,820 --> 00:17:39,620
Address so I just click I'd encourage you to click that button and go from there

224
00:17:41,380 --> 00:17:44,000
And then last but not least I

225
00:17:44,260 --> 00:17:47,840
would like for you guys, like I said, to follow the project.

226
00:17:48,300 --> 00:17:50,880
I mentioned our text messages, our emails,

227
00:17:51,180 --> 00:17:54,680
also every different kind of social media that you can think of

228
00:17:55,250 --> 00:17:59,840
to get updates on the project and share that information

229
00:17:59,840 --> 00:18:02,640
because as part of the project team,

230
00:18:03,180 --> 00:18:06,960
we understand that the project is going to be a long project.

231
00:18:07,120 --> 00:18:10,980
It's going to be a lot to work through.

232
00:18:10,980 --> 00:18:15,120
We all live, the Kentucky team, all those in Kentucky.

233
00:18:15,360 --> 00:18:17,980
We travel this corridor on a daily basis.

234
00:18:18,500 --> 00:18:21,440
I would ask that everyone have patience

235
00:18:22,000 --> 00:18:24,460
as we work through the project, but most importantly,

236
00:18:24,640 --> 00:18:27,960
I would ask that you guys share the sources of information.

237
00:18:28,380 --> 00:18:29,780
Because to me, the most important thing

238
00:18:29,780 --> 00:18:31,220
that I can walk away from today

239
00:18:31,700 --> 00:18:34,160
is giving you guys the source of information

240
00:18:34,160 --> 00:18:37,280
so that you can go back and always have the most current,

241
00:18:37,300 --> 00:18:39,440
most up-to-date information that we know

242
00:18:39,440 --> 00:18:40,800
coming from the project team.

243
00:18:43,950 --> 00:18:53,390
I did have my contact information on the last slide but my contact

244
00:18:53,390 --> 00:18:57,170
information I do work for the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet, so it's just off the

245
00:18:57,170 --> 00:18:59,870
I don't know if I've spent some time in Melbourne now,

246
00:19:00,010 --> 00:19:01,610
because that's a project site as well.

247
00:19:02,670 --> 00:19:10,430
But it's STACEE.HANS at ky.gov.

248
00:19:10,650 --> 00:19:12,670
If anyone would like to reach out with questions.

249
00:19:12,950 --> 00:19:13,090
Yeah.

250
00:19:13,570 --> 00:19:15,230
Stacy, one more question, I'm sure it's for you.

251
00:19:15,470 --> 00:19:17,350
If we have questions I want to reach out

252
00:19:17,910 --> 00:19:20,950
about the impact that we've made or may not have it with Raleigh,

253
00:19:21,070 --> 00:19:22,990
can we reach out with additional questions to you?

254
00:19:23,150 --> 00:19:23,510
Absolutely.

255
00:19:23,810 --> 00:19:26,610
Or do you have any information, this KYTC

256
00:19:26,610 --> 00:19:31,250
you believe that there's going to be an effect to the traffic on Route 8 as a result

257
00:19:31,250 --> 00:19:33,010
of the Red Spence Gorda project.

258
00:19:33,470 --> 00:19:36,830
Yeah, so that's one of the things I did want to point out in the project.

259
00:19:37,090 --> 00:19:42,690
So in the future condition where Third Street ties into Crescent Avenue and that obviously

260
00:19:42,690 --> 00:19:44,810
turns around and comes into a highway avenue.

261
00:19:45,250 --> 00:19:49,830
In the future condition, it is not a three-way stop and it is not a traffic signal.

262
00:19:50,210 --> 00:19:55,330
It is designed for that to be around about, which will help facilitate the movement of that

263
00:19:55,330 --> 00:19:55,750
traffic.

264
00:19:55,750 --> 00:19:58,750
And then as far as the footprint of the existing,

265
00:19:59,530 --> 00:20:01,610
of the Vredspin stretch corridor project,

266
00:20:02,810 --> 00:20:06,950
we don't go far beyond where the lobby gate

267
00:20:06,950 --> 00:20:10,630
or that lobby entrance, for this west lobby entrance is.

268
00:20:11,170 --> 00:20:14,630
So as far as impacts, physical impacts,

269
00:20:15,110 --> 00:20:17,170
to can take you to route a,

270
00:20:17,510 --> 00:20:20,030
we're not experiencing that, we don't plan that.

271
00:20:20,470 --> 00:20:23,050
As far as what traffic does on a,

272
00:20:23,630 --> 00:20:24,750
even what happens now,

273
00:20:24,750 --> 00:20:28,350
or even what happened a year ago before we even started this project.

274
00:20:28,890 --> 00:20:32,830
We are encouraging people to find, to follow ways, to do the way finding.

275
00:20:33,070 --> 00:20:36,590
We know that sometimes that puts them in places that they shouldn't be.

276
00:20:36,750 --> 00:20:41,850
But I will say that we are working very closely with the freight community, the freight and logistics

277
00:20:41,850 --> 00:20:46,790
community, including those at Cincinnati, North Kentucky, airport, North Texas, and Air

278
00:20:46,790 --> 00:20:51,770
Port, CBG, and really working with them to encourage their freight and their logistics

279
00:20:51,770 --> 00:20:53,630
it spokes to use 275.

280
00:20:54,090 --> 00:20:56,410
And we're working with, even the freight,

281
00:20:56,990 --> 00:20:58,890
if you didn't know, the freight community

282
00:20:58,890 --> 00:21:00,450
has their own way finding system.

283
00:21:00,990 --> 00:21:02,570
And we're working with them to encourage them

284
00:21:02,570 --> 00:21:03,710
to use 275.

285
00:21:03,970 --> 00:21:06,370
So really, that's where we're trying to push everyone.

286
00:21:06,530 --> 00:21:07,530
If you see the detour signs,

287
00:21:07,650 --> 00:21:08,950
if you're heading in the northbound direction,

288
00:21:09,490 --> 00:21:11,150
you're gonna see the orange signs,

289
00:21:11,310 --> 00:21:13,130
the detour signs at 275.

290
00:21:13,690 --> 00:21:17,050
So our goal is to minimize the people that are in the corridor.

291
00:21:17,590 --> 00:21:19,190
And I know we've had a lot of references

292
00:21:19,190 --> 00:21:27,590
to the 2020 bridge fire, but keep in mind that during the 2020 bridge fire, there was no access across the bridge fence.

293
00:21:27,810 --> 00:21:33,810
They called the middle, no one's driving through. With this project, we are keeping the existing bridge open

294
00:21:33,810 --> 00:21:38,850
until the new companion bridge is ready to come online, then we'll move traffic over there,

295
00:21:39,490 --> 00:21:44,730
do that restriping that we've spoken about before we're able to have the whole corridor open.

296
00:21:44,730 --> 00:21:53,130
So, yeah, I want to make sure that, because I looked at that, I looked at the red fire and that was a lot, I don't want that to be everyone's point of reference.

297
00:21:53,470 --> 00:21:55,890
Do we have any other questions for Stacy?

298
00:21:56,830 --> 00:22:03,250
I would just love to ask Stacy to continue to come back and update us around the process, I think that would be great.

299
00:22:03,490 --> 00:22:12,790
And then, mayor, my question to you was going to be how, like, what strategies can we put in place to make sure that we're getting this information out for residents,

300
00:22:12,790 --> 00:22:16,770
whether it be, you know, as we're getting different travel advisories, can we

301
00:22:16,770 --> 00:22:22,110
have Jenny Millen put that on the digital sign, talking about them here at

302
00:22:22,110 --> 00:22:25,470
council, just trying to think about different ways that as those different

303
00:22:25,470 --> 00:22:30,270
phases are happening, we can communicate those. I think it'd be great to say in touch

304
00:22:30,270 --> 00:22:34,110
with you, to keep us absolutely up to date on and then we'll definitely

305
00:22:34,110 --> 00:22:37,710
disseminate that information out to our residents. I totally appreciate that ask.

306
00:22:40,470 --> 00:22:40,950
I

307
00:22:40,950 --> 00:23:07,110
I said the next item for y'all be aware of is the work associated with fits street will be in that configuration for a couple of months, and then right now our target is in a November beginning of December for another major or another traffic shift will be able to start opening some of those ramps, and we'll that's when you know we'll have others that will close so definitely keep in mind for that timeline, so that's great. Thank you.

308
00:23:22,190 --> 00:23:26,910
Next up, we have a presentation from Will Weber from Southbank Partners on a Riverfront

309
00:23:26,910 --> 00:23:27,930
Commons update.

310
00:23:29,490 --> 00:23:34,250
So, take a little different approach now I have in the past here, so instead of a song

311
00:23:34,250 --> 00:23:39,070
and dance in presentation, you have, I believe, a two-pager in front of you.

312
00:23:39,590 --> 00:23:44,170
Just given you an overview of different projects, Southbank Partners is working on with the city.

313
00:23:44,930 --> 00:23:49,290
Obviously, Riverfront Commons is the signature piece, I broke that up into a couple categories

314
00:23:49,290 --> 00:23:54,630
for you, so I will not read this to you at Nazim by any stretch, but just give you a little highlight

315
00:23:54,630 --> 00:24:02,110
real here. So as it pertains to the Riverwalk, phase two we are wrapping up right now with some

316
00:24:02,110 --> 00:24:06,990
landscaping and working through a lighting design for phase two and as from Adela to Hooper Street.

317
00:24:07,750 --> 00:24:13,170
We met last week onsite with the superintendent to go through exactly what that landscape plan

318
00:24:13,170 --> 00:24:21,490
looks like on their side of the fence to avoid the windscreens and for any longer than I think anyone

319
00:24:21,490 --> 00:24:26,090
would like the windscreens to be at. So working through a landscape plan for that to take place

320
00:24:26,090 --> 00:24:31,650
later in September to get that in place we are working through design contracts for lighting

321
00:24:31,650 --> 00:24:36,650
that's going to be a much more involved process whatever the standard is set there we would continue

322
00:24:36,650 --> 00:24:41,250
that through phase one and work out any type of lighting solutions that the city may want for the park

323
00:24:41,250 --> 00:24:46,270
So before any decisions are made, we're going to be going through just preliminary design to get that feedback.

324
00:24:46,810 --> 00:24:52,050
And that will actually help not only just the city of Ludlow, but help set the president for other cities as well.

325
00:24:53,570 --> 00:24:57,070
See here, so phase three, we haven't talked much about phase three in the past.

326
00:24:57,650 --> 00:24:59,810
This one is really looking going toward east.

327
00:25:00,310 --> 00:25:03,790
So from the end of Hooper Street where phase two terminates at,

328
00:25:03,790 --> 00:25:06,530
seems to what was the cul-de-sac of Hooper Street,

329
00:25:07,150 --> 00:25:11,790
and progressing east towards Carneal, Ohio.

330
00:25:12,410 --> 00:25:14,470
Right now, very preliminary looking

331
00:25:14,470 --> 00:25:17,750
at the topography in that area, because all of the streets

332
00:25:17,750 --> 00:25:20,070
that run to the river, terminate at the river.

333
00:25:20,890 --> 00:25:24,410
If you're not going, excuse me here,

334
00:25:24,530 --> 00:25:26,190
let me work on my geography here.

335
00:25:26,570 --> 00:25:28,130
If you go beyond the street, there's

336
00:25:28,130 --> 00:25:30,130
very limited area before you're going down the hillside

337
00:25:30,130 --> 00:25:30,690
towards the river.

338
00:25:30,870 --> 00:25:32,830
So right now, very preliminary research

339
00:25:32,830 --> 00:25:37,130
to understand that area and of course any type of community engagement talking to any potential

340
00:25:37,130 --> 00:25:42,450
residents or businesses that might be impacted with whatever that preliminary design would be

341
00:25:42,450 --> 00:25:47,390
is to get their feedback and their willingness to participate to continue to see the river walk

342
00:25:47,390 --> 00:25:53,770
through. So at this point I always like to emphasize before there's a map or a line of where do you

343
00:25:53,770 --> 00:25:58,130
want it to go and how is it impacting my property? I'd like to talk and have a conversation with you

344
00:25:58,130 --> 00:26:01,230
first. That way, it's a little more public engagement face.

345
00:26:01,450 --> 00:26:07,670
Well, on the, on Hooper Street to Carneal, yes, are you talking, going front of spatties?

346
00:26:08,570 --> 00:26:14,090
So at this time, we would like to be able to go as close to the rivers we can so we'd be

347
00:26:14,090 --> 00:26:18,710
on the back side of spatties and continue to fall that way. But really, it's based on

348
00:26:18,710 --> 00:26:24,470
the participation of spattie and residents as we go around the building. Yes, that would

349
00:26:24,470 --> 00:26:28,270
be the preferred route, but I forget that John might be, isn't it?

350
00:26:28,870 --> 00:26:28,970
What?

351
00:26:29,330 --> 00:26:30,470
The gentleman who had spatting.

352
00:26:30,790 --> 00:26:31,530
I don't know who it is.

353
00:26:32,550 --> 00:26:35,950
The neighbor introduced me to him briefly once, so I haven't had enough conversation.

354
00:26:36,490 --> 00:26:40,150
I could say, ideally it would be nice to go on that side, just given the public right

355
00:26:40,150 --> 00:26:43,630
of way, you know, with or the sidewalk, just being able to have a dedicated path, but

356
00:26:43,630 --> 00:26:44,970
there are time frame on that base.

357
00:26:45,530 --> 00:26:46,310
There is not.

358
00:26:46,410 --> 00:26:51,710
I believe our engineer flew the drone the last couple of weeks to get a better understanding

359
00:26:51,710 --> 00:26:54,650
in the photography, so we can put a, I'm gonna say,

360
00:26:55,290 --> 00:26:56,770
I wouldn't even put a pen on paper.

361
00:26:56,890 --> 00:26:58,810
This is more pencil on paper to start the conversation,

362
00:26:59,110 --> 00:26:59,970
sit down with him and say,

363
00:27:00,270 --> 00:27:01,190
here's what we'd like to do.

364
00:27:01,790 --> 00:27:03,470
Are you willing to work with us on here?

365
00:27:03,590 --> 00:27:05,530
Here's what we would need in order for this to happen,

366
00:27:05,770 --> 00:27:07,730
so a lot of engagement through there.

367
00:27:07,870 --> 00:27:11,170
So the part that's finished behind the football stadium,

368
00:27:11,790 --> 00:27:13,550
I know there were a lot of trees cut down,

369
00:27:14,090 --> 00:27:17,110
are those gonna be removed, or is just gonna lay there?

370
00:27:17,530 --> 00:27:19,890
The ones that were just dropped through there?

371
00:27:20,450 --> 00:27:24,150
So, right now, let's see here, we have figured

372
00:27:26,840 --> 00:27:27,960
out the best way to answer this question.

373
00:27:28,260 --> 00:27:30,520
So, yes, they would be removed.

374
00:27:30,960 --> 00:27:38,600
Some when they were cut down was, I don't know, woodchipper, woodmove, not the landscaper

375
00:27:38,600 --> 00:27:39,720
by any stretch, as you can imagine.

376
00:27:39,900 --> 00:27:47,240
So, they will be removed in such a way that there will no longer be larger logs there, so

377
00:27:47,980 --> 00:27:51,660
So addressing that piece, but also, I believe he is a subcontractor that

378
00:27:52,900 --> 00:27:54,960
stuffed grinder to eliminate those.

379
00:27:55,620 --> 00:27:56,940
The reason why I asked is a lot of it.

380
00:27:57,240 --> 00:28:01,260
When it floods, the water is going to take it down river.

381
00:28:02,500 --> 00:28:02,660
Yes.

382
00:28:02,960 --> 00:28:04,260
It could be left here on the side.

383
00:28:04,580 --> 00:28:04,760
Yes.

384
00:28:04,940 --> 00:28:05,140
Wherever.

385
00:28:05,540 --> 00:28:05,640
Yeah.

386
00:28:05,900 --> 00:28:06,380
Through that way.

387
00:28:06,580 --> 00:28:06,640
Yes.

388
00:28:07,060 --> 00:28:11,040
I think I wanted to say this was Tuesday of this week.

389
00:28:11,860 --> 00:28:16,140
We were bolting down all the benches and trash cans and saw from the last storm.

390
00:28:16,140 --> 00:28:19,900
Looks like a couple of trees had lost branches and died through there

391
00:28:19,900 --> 00:28:22,720
So I met with Shane and we were going through different ones

392
00:28:22,720 --> 00:28:26,160
They need to be cleaned up so the next time he's down there will clean those up and then address

393
00:28:27,100 --> 00:28:29,180
The remaining wood that's down

394
00:28:29,740 --> 00:28:33,220
I want to call it the cross country browned if you will for the school

395
00:28:39,920 --> 00:28:41,760
Remaining trees, but yes, great question

396
00:28:51,500 --> 00:28:56,600
So let's see here. And then future phases here, I mean, we've got to go further east towards

397
00:28:56,600 --> 00:29:04,020
West Street and West Coveings and further west into the Vue Park and making those connections

398
00:29:04,020 --> 00:29:08,520
through there. So phase 4, 5 and 6 are certainly a longer term. Those are part of the design

399
00:29:08,520 --> 00:29:13,840
for the raise grant. If and when, we finally get an agreement from the FHWA and if the

400
00:29:13,840 --> 00:29:19,160
Stacy still here and she can pull some strings for us, everybody to help us sign an agreement

401
00:29:19,160 --> 00:29:27,580
for friends in DC. On those phases you spoke of the 456. Is it like five years out, 10 years

402
00:29:27,580 --> 00:29:35,580
out, 15 years out? I would say our, I know it's hard to guess that. I think design would be reasonably

403
00:29:35,580 --> 00:29:41,100
in 12 months, once we establish what the design looks like and where it's gonna go, then it becomes a

404
00:29:41,100 --> 00:29:49,750
funding conversation, so 3 to 5 optimistically in that area to get phase

405
00:29:53,500 --> 00:29:56,160
5, I'd say 3 to 5, phase 6

406
00:29:56,160 --> 00:29:57,540
It's probably going to be five plus,

407
00:29:57,660 --> 00:29:58,860
depending on what that looks like.

408
00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:23,840
Through here. So park improvement wise, so just helping close things out this fall. I mentioned it earlier, I think, right before the meeting started working with our artists right now to finalize a mural map designed that would be replicated in each of the cities at the Riverfront Park. So on the side of the restrooms left storage, slash concession building on the east side that would face.

409
00:30:30,880 --> 00:30:35,680
You got it. You were having a lot of peace and cues here. So it'll face that side.

410
00:30:36,220 --> 00:30:41,280
We're doing a pilot one right now in Newport near where the former hooters, your seller location was.

411
00:30:41,840 --> 00:30:45,900
Once we find tune that, we'll be able to replicate that and have a good point of interest.

412
00:30:45,900 --> 00:30:48,680
And hopefully an Instagramable moment for people to take pictures.

413
00:30:48,680 --> 00:30:54,560
And then, what else to highlight through here, let's see.

414
00:30:54,760 --> 00:31:00,500
So for a trailhead perspective, so differentiating between the river walk, the park and the trailhead.

415
00:31:00,820 --> 00:31:06,280
Typically, a trailhead is where you're driving to to stop, get out and walk or bike on the path.

416
00:31:06,660 --> 00:31:17,540
So one ask I have, because I know there are many, many priorities in a budget and any fiscal year, is if the city would prioritize or consider prioritizing,

417
00:31:17,540 --> 00:31:22,420
paving the gravel log in that area with curbs and drainage solution because I

418
00:31:22,420 --> 00:31:26,720
know anytime it rains which it seems like this summer we have had torrential

419
00:31:26,720 --> 00:31:30,300
downpours in a short amount of time that a lot of that gravel is going on to the

420
00:31:30,300 --> 00:31:34,000
river walk and walking through here so that would be a nice chair on top of all

421
00:31:34,000 --> 00:31:39,340
the improvements in that area is to get that one teed up and finish there. Once

422
00:31:39,340 --> 00:31:43,780
that is complete we do have a part of our amenity package is bike racks and

423
00:31:43,780 --> 00:31:46,340
like repair stations and more landscaping in that area.

424
00:31:46,740 --> 00:31:48,180
So as you come to the end of Adela,

425
00:31:48,460 --> 00:31:50,400
you have arrived to the riverfront park

426
00:31:50,400 --> 00:31:52,440
and the river wall and all these connections through there.

427
00:31:52,540 --> 00:31:54,400
I've got a question on the reinstall

428
00:31:54,400 --> 00:31:55,780
River Stage lettering.

429
00:31:56,080 --> 00:31:56,320
Yes.

430
00:31:58,200 --> 00:32:02,320
Is it gonna be called the same as it is now?

431
00:32:02,940 --> 00:32:04,580
Yes, there was this additional

432
00:32:05,420 --> 00:32:06,900
initials that need to be added, right?

433
00:32:07,320 --> 00:32:10,500
Yes, because I got received the

434
00:32:10,500 --> 00:32:15,940
or I had a conversation with Doug Martin, he had contacted me and he wanted to make sure

435
00:32:16,640 --> 00:32:21,120
something was put in place to make that permanent that could change, you know, years down the road.

436
00:32:21,380 --> 00:32:25,020
Yes, that is a resolution that I need to come before.

437
00:32:25,060 --> 00:32:26,180
That can happen.

438
00:32:26,340 --> 00:32:27,650
Yeah, in order to...

439
00:32:28,920 --> 00:32:36,380
I think you can do a resolution but I don't know that you can make a, you know you can name it for now

440
00:32:36,380 --> 00:32:37,360
but I know that you can permanently

441
00:32:38,020 --> 00:32:42,340
bind future city councils from changing the name

442
00:32:42,340 --> 00:32:44,620
like in 50, you know, plus years.

443
00:32:44,840 --> 00:32:47,500
Well, he's concerned he donated $50,000

444
00:32:47,500 --> 00:32:49,980
and he just wants to make sure that name won't change.

445
00:32:50,960 --> 00:32:51,820
I think it's reasonable.

446
00:32:51,840 --> 00:32:52,980
Don't know that we can guarantee.

447
00:32:53,360 --> 00:32:53,960
It's a reasonable.

448
00:32:54,180 --> 00:32:56,460
I think I can understand why they're asking

449
00:32:56,460 --> 00:32:59,840
but I don't know that the statute's permit

450
00:33:00,420 --> 00:33:05,600
a permanent binding future councils

451
00:33:05,600 --> 00:33:08,280
from not doing something different in the future.

452
00:33:12,990 --> 00:33:15,870
I'll just ask that you check into it and there's something to be done.

453
00:33:16,870 --> 00:33:18,450
I think it should be done.

454
00:33:20,980 --> 00:33:21,980
We're the name can't change.

455
00:33:27,930 --> 00:33:29,130
I know as far as the letter goes.

456
00:33:29,850 --> 00:33:31,290
It was H-gordon in the film.

457
00:33:31,470 --> 00:33:31,970
That's right.

458
00:33:32,370 --> 00:33:34,810
And unfortunately squeezing those two in in the current configuration.

459
00:33:35,070 --> 00:33:37,290
We just said we're going to take it off, clean it up,

460
00:33:37,530 --> 00:33:41,630
and make sure both those so that same H-gordon film at S

461
00:33:41,630 --> 00:33:43,890
is replicated on a plaque.

462
00:33:45,750 --> 00:33:49,570
That way, they're both that way, so get it teed up for them.

463
00:33:50,330 --> 00:33:50,910
Let's see.

464
00:33:51,110 --> 00:33:53,610
So finishing up page number two here.

465
00:33:55,110 --> 00:34:00,650
Different things we've talked about in the past, you know, increasing the opportunity for the city to become.

466
00:34:00,710 --> 00:34:03,570
They have a question on the trailhead section.

467
00:34:03,790 --> 00:34:04,730
You almost said your quote a bit.

468
00:34:04,930 --> 00:34:05,470
Okay, we'll talk.

469
00:34:06,110 --> 00:34:07,470
All right.

470
00:34:07,470 --> 00:34:13,550
which will be the black topping of the parking lot at the end of the

471
00:34:13,550 --> 00:34:18,490
villa in time frame on that. I defer that to the seat.

472
00:34:19,310 --> 00:34:23,170
That's what we just asked for it. We would pay that and I usually believe that

473
00:34:23,170 --> 00:34:26,290
we have already. We have already so put forward for the payment.

474
00:34:26,850 --> 00:34:28,470
Have we cornered that out?

475
00:34:31,270 --> 00:34:33,570
Have an estimate as to how much that would cost.

476
00:34:33,570 --> 00:34:37,110
We estimated it in around, I would say, 5 to 8,000.

477
00:34:37,270 --> 00:34:40,430
That if it's more than that, then how much do we think more?

478
00:34:41,090 --> 00:34:43,130
I'm thinking that's going to be probably closer

479
00:34:43,130 --> 00:34:44,410
to your 40,000, 50,000 range.

480
00:34:44,570 --> 00:34:46,110
Oh, no, that is all of the budget.

481
00:34:47,610 --> 00:34:47,790
OK.

482
00:34:48,030 --> 00:34:50,170
So that was one where I would say between,

483
00:34:50,910 --> 00:34:53,130
you get more competitive vids around like February

484
00:34:53,130 --> 00:34:54,890
Marchtime Frame, like a spring project,

485
00:34:55,190 --> 00:34:57,770
and any type of design work between now and then,

486
00:34:58,390 --> 00:35:01,950
I would suggest contacting, when you all contract,

487
00:35:01,950 --> 00:35:07,730
that was the city engineer to just evaluate to make sure when it is paved whenever that time is

488
00:35:07,730 --> 00:35:11,570
in the curves but there is drainage solutions put in place so you're going to have to

489
00:35:11,570 --> 00:35:15,830
daylight that out beyond the river walk and when you put the curb in you can eliminate the need for

490
00:35:15,830 --> 00:35:21,370
the pilings between the parking lot and there so is there is there any way to utilize the raised

491
00:35:21,370 --> 00:35:24,310
agreements in order to make that happen?

492
00:35:29,440 --> 00:35:32,440
My gut instinct is doubtful but I don't want to rule it out

493
00:35:32,440 --> 00:35:33,720
So let me see.

494
00:35:33,800 --> 00:35:37,440
Yeah, let's check into that piece, see what I can figure out there.

495
00:35:37,740 --> 00:35:42,200
And I would say, when that gets paved by top,

496
00:35:43,180 --> 00:35:46,380
maybe look at a way to design something to hide the dumpster.

497
00:35:49,580 --> 00:35:50,400
It's kind of unsightly.

498
00:35:50,400 --> 00:35:51,920
We're planning to move the dumpster, I believe.

499
00:35:53,160 --> 00:35:55,480
I think, let me double check.

500
00:35:55,780 --> 00:35:58,500
I'm going to check the chain and what we can do with the dumpster.

501
00:35:58,600 --> 00:36:00,820
But we did discuss moving that dumpster away from that side.

502
00:36:06,130 --> 00:36:10,810
So I was mentioned about connectivity to the higher river, so one thing, I think over

503
00:36:10,810 --> 00:36:14,450
the last couple months, the mayor and I have exchanged some emails with the folks at

504
00:36:14,450 --> 00:36:19,990
the higher riverway, given the increase in demand for having kayak launches and opportunities

505
00:36:19,990 --> 00:36:24,250
to get on the higher river is exploring some opportunities of where those could take place.

506
00:36:24,470 --> 00:36:28,810
If we could get it permitted from the core that way, the community doesn't have to drag to

507
00:36:28,810 --> 00:36:32,190
a different city or a different state in Ohio, but you can actually get on the

508
00:36:32,190 --> 00:36:38,310
highway from Lando. So it's still an exploratory phase there. One other future

509
00:36:38,310 --> 00:36:43,830
project here from a business district connection perspective. Since we've

510
00:36:43,830 --> 00:36:48,390
looked at arterial connections with Adela and Traverse Street is the

511
00:36:48,390 --> 00:36:52,870
opportunity to extend the sidewalk connectivity down Traverse Street so as we

512
00:36:52,870 --> 00:36:57,430
continue to design for future faces of the Riverwalk and then down. Let there be

513
00:36:57,430 --> 00:37:05,290
light. It's very dark. As the river will continue to further east towards West

514
00:37:05,290 --> 00:37:09,850
Covington, that if you are along River Road and you get to the intersection of

515
00:37:09,850 --> 00:37:15,130
church, and ashtray, that you know that there's a downtown up here, you're

516
00:37:15,130 --> 00:37:19,670
not just bypassing to go down towards Memorial Park. So another consideration to

517
00:37:21,250 --> 00:37:26,890
evaluate and throughout other ones on here, I will say, I'm sure you mentioned this

518
00:37:26,890 --> 00:37:31,550
at the last council meeting, but the American Discovery Trail and the opportunities to highlight

519
00:37:32,010 --> 00:37:36,070
love, though, as a city that's very walk-on connected to nature and the community.

520
00:37:37,030 --> 00:37:41,330
And other than that, I will say there's any, for many questions, I have to answer any

521
00:37:41,330 --> 00:37:41,730
questions.

522
00:37:45,940 --> 00:37:46,220
One more time.

523
00:37:46,440 --> 00:37:51,980
Well, did you have a quote for the traversed street as well in terms of that asked to complete

524
00:37:51,980 --> 00:37:52,240
that?

525
00:37:52,440 --> 00:37:53,680
Do you have any?

526
00:37:53,920 --> 00:37:54,380
I do not.

527
00:37:54,680 --> 00:37:54,760
Okay.

528
00:37:55,840 --> 00:37:59,160
I'll put that on my list and see if we could get at least some budgetary estimates from

529
00:38:00,120 --> 00:38:05,680
If the ask was for, with it being highlighted, was for us to consider the, okay, so

530
00:38:05,680 --> 00:38:07,020
these are my two wishes projects.

531
00:38:07,100 --> 00:38:07,240
Yeah.

532
00:38:08,160 --> 00:38:08,340
Okay.

533
00:38:08,540 --> 00:38:08,820
Thank you.

534
00:38:09,200 --> 00:38:14,740
I know when we evaluated that, just, as an amateur traffic engineer here, learning under

535
00:38:14,740 --> 00:38:19,740
some of the tutelage of KYTC individuals, that area becomes very challenging if you're

536
00:38:19,740 --> 00:38:26,580
in a car, trying to, I mean, turn left out of traverse, right, good work, yeah, that's

537
00:38:26,580 --> 00:38:41,100
So how do you evaluate that for more walking and bicycling priority version of the vehicular and I think given the public right away that's there just making sure you're not impacting any storm water that will be going down through that way so need opportunity.

538
00:38:42,540 --> 00:38:44,340
Do you want to ask another one?

539
00:38:44,340 --> 00:38:45,000
I see the look.

540
00:38:45,900 --> 00:38:56,880
I know the sign you should put on the fence behind the football stadium, it says rib

541
00:38:56,880 --> 00:38:57,840
of rent comms.

542
00:38:58,920 --> 00:39:00,540
Oh, the band sign you should put there?

543
00:39:00,760 --> 00:39:01,600
Oh, yeah.

544
00:39:01,640 --> 00:39:02,540
From the ribbon cutting?

545
00:39:03,260 --> 00:39:03,380
Yeah.

546
00:39:03,860 --> 00:39:04,020
Peace.

547
00:39:04,760 --> 00:39:05,580
We can take that down.

548
00:39:05,760 --> 00:39:05,960
No.

549
00:39:05,960 --> 00:39:13,020
Well I'm just saying, are there plans to put more that maybe not signed, but to cover

550
00:39:13,020 --> 00:39:15,220
that fence where you can't see into the football field?

551
00:39:15,960 --> 00:39:17,220
So our plan?

552
00:39:17,220 --> 00:39:22,600
I had heard that the school wanted that done, so maybe on their dime, I don't know,

553
00:39:22,760 --> 00:39:24,560
just so you couldn't stand back here and watch football.

554
00:39:24,660 --> 00:39:31,080
Yes, so there was a mesh windscreen that blocked the bus slot from the football stadium.

555
00:39:31,080 --> 00:39:36,460
And when the path went in, it shrunk the opportunity to actually have an effective

556
00:39:36,460 --> 00:39:37,160
windscreen there.

557
00:39:37,560 --> 00:39:41,480
So they took those off and placed them down towards the shop put.

558
00:39:42,040 --> 00:39:42,860
Yeah, they've got a turn.

559
00:39:43,420 --> 00:39:51,420
So they put those there temporarily to discourage tailgating during football games.

560
00:39:52,460 --> 00:39:53,340
So reasonable.

561
00:39:54,260 --> 00:39:59,640
What we're trying to do to mitigate long-term use of the windscreens is to put more landscaping

562
00:39:59,640 --> 00:40:04,960
in along the track there. So we're hoping to install that late September timeframe and

563
00:40:04,960 --> 00:40:08,340
that was a partnership with us in the school to pledge to put some money in. So just

564
00:40:08,340 --> 00:40:13,560
to end the word. I didn't know where that stood. Yes. Good question. And receding as well.

565
00:40:14,160 --> 00:40:18,080
I think all of the seed that was put down. It looked great for the ribbon cutting. Yeah.

566
00:40:18,320 --> 00:40:26,660
Yeah. Oh, yeah. I am. I appreciate it. Thank you. Next up

567
00:40:36,930 --> 00:40:38,410
is a mayor's report and I just

568
00:40:38,410 --> 00:40:39,310
have a short report.

569
00:40:41,610 --> 00:40:45,090
So I do want to say I want to thank Infinite Health's

570
00:40:45,090 --> 00:40:48,970
Productions and let the Heritage Museum for their partnership and work on Saturday's

571
00:40:48,970 --> 00:40:53,910
rail sessions event. It was a great success and I appreciate everyone who helped

572
00:40:53,910 --> 00:40:57,750
make that evening possible or that day possible and everyone who came out to

573
00:40:57,750 --> 00:41:02,090
support it. Please join us for the next rail sessions event on Wednesday September

574
00:41:02,090 --> 00:41:04,470
number 16th from 6 to 9 p.m.

575
00:41:05,810 --> 00:41:10,830
And also I have an update for council and for residents.

576
00:41:12,610 --> 00:41:16,930
Our treasurer Wayne Harris submitted his resignation yesterday was his last day with

577
00:41:16,930 --> 00:41:17,770
the city of Lepo.

578
00:41:18,510 --> 00:41:20,810
Wayne accepted an opportunity closer to home.

579
00:41:20,810 --> 00:41:22,470
He said he couldn't pass it up.

580
00:41:22,970 --> 00:41:26,910
So we appreciate his service to the city and wish him well in his new position.

581
00:41:27,370 --> 00:41:29,330
More information will come at our next meeting.

582
00:41:29,330 --> 00:41:33,470
will we will have some port from Steve Bowie at the moment and we will find

583
00:41:33,470 --> 00:41:38,150
additional support while we move into the new search. And that concludes my

584
00:41:38,150 --> 00:41:45,950
mayor's updates. Next up we have citizens wishing to address mayor and council

585
00:41:45,950 --> 00:41:49,990
public comment is welcome limited to three minutes per citizen please approach the

586
00:41:49,990 --> 00:41:52,590
podium and state where name and address.

587
00:41:58,330 --> 00:42:01,390
All right. Moving on to the next item on

588
00:42:01,390 --> 00:42:05,970
agenda on Finnish business will continue our discussion on a potential bicycle

589
00:42:05,970 --> 00:42:06,390
ordinance.

590
00:42:11,500 --> 00:42:15,060
We shall exact for submitting all of those examples from other cities

591
00:42:15,060 --> 00:42:20,660
that are very helpful. A lot of them were very similar and I know in the past

592
00:42:20,660 --> 00:42:25,620
when we've suggested ordinances for city like when I did the tree ordinance I just

593
00:42:25,620 --> 00:42:29,980
compared a bunch of them and put it in spreadsheet and then highlighted those

594
00:42:29,980 --> 00:42:33,860
things and then there were a couple of other things that were in one city that

595
00:42:33,860 --> 00:42:42,760
there wasn't anything else, had had to do with helmets on riding children like the babies.

596
00:42:43,520 --> 00:42:48,760
And so like people identified those things and then we just could suggest, all of counsel

597
00:42:48,760 --> 00:42:55,200
could suggest and it back to you and just so we could do it independently and then submit

598
00:42:55,200 --> 00:43:00,580
You can submit everything and one lump sum so you could have quick and easy.

599
00:43:00,600 --> 00:43:00,780
Sure.

600
00:43:01,960 --> 00:43:04,660
And do you think, Michelle, you have a few topics.

601
00:43:04,920 --> 00:43:08,800
I think a few topics, just maybe to get your all opinions on some of it.

602
00:43:09,020 --> 00:43:25,040
So I think definitions themselves, I think Zach and I would kind of look at definitions of all these different types of electronic bicycles or anything and kind of confirm which ones are most legally enforceable things like that.

603
00:43:25,920 --> 00:43:30,240
Currently, as we sit here today, the first, I guess, thing we did decide is, what does

604
00:43:30,240 --> 00:43:33,680
everyone's feelings on allowing bicycles on sidewalk as we sit here today?

605
00:43:34,380 --> 00:43:35,040
There's no bicycles.

606
00:43:35,300 --> 00:43:40,820
I think there was definitely some reception to, at least a lot of children on the air, but

607
00:43:40,820 --> 00:43:45,680
what is everyone's feelings on allowing bicycles is, a lot of these ordinances, they are allowing

608
00:43:45,680 --> 00:43:47,020
their bicycles on sidewalks.

609
00:43:48,500 --> 00:43:51,620
Right on sidewalks are you can't ride it on sidewalks.

610
00:43:53,800 --> 00:43:58,300
So I think it's to occur at least standard order said or the new by single bicycles at all

611
00:43:58,300 --> 00:43:59,380
You can't even walk

612
00:43:59,380 --> 00:44:03,120
We can't even walk it down the side, right? I don't even know we have an exception

613
00:44:03,120 --> 00:44:04,740
We have an exception for your children

614
00:44:04,740 --> 00:44:07,580
I don't think there's an exception for children, I don't know why it's like that

615
00:44:07,580 --> 00:44:11,020
And I think that's important for

616
00:44:11,020 --> 00:44:15,280
We should make sure that we have a right bike, we don't not want them in the street

617
00:44:15,280 --> 00:44:17,980
Right, I think we need to consider that

618
00:44:17,980 --> 00:44:18,260
Right

619
00:44:18,260 --> 00:44:22,760
And I mean a couple of them were like 12 and under which I think is a little

620
00:44:22,760 --> 00:44:28,460
still a little too high probably. We have kids on large bikes by the time they're

621
00:44:28,460 --> 00:44:34,420
12. I was thinking maybe eight like that puts them in the second grade and by

622
00:44:34,420 --> 00:44:39,560
that point they should be fairly stable on a bike. Yeah how do we feel about eight

623
00:44:39,560 --> 00:44:47,320
ears as a range? So generally would be no bikes on sidewalk when no no mobility

624
00:44:47,320 --> 00:44:50,740
or related devices, except for, of course, ADA compliance.

625
00:44:51,020 --> 00:44:57,300
No, when you say no box on sidewalks, if you're on oak street, you're on linden street.

626
00:44:57,660 --> 00:44:58,080
You can't walk.

627
00:45:00,000 --> 00:45:12,700
You can't ride your bike on a sidewalk right now. So I think it sounds like there's you all favor basically keeping the bike from the vision in but allowing young children to ride their bikes.

628
00:45:18,920 --> 00:45:35,000
And then I think there was a lot of service helmets. I think most of these usually are requiring children out of your 16 or under under 18 to wear helmets. And I think yet the idea if you're if you do have a bike that allows you to

629
00:45:35,000 --> 00:45:38,800
to have your child with them that child needs to have a helmet as well.

630
00:45:42,700 --> 00:45:49,520
As far as these parks, trails, multi-use paths, I did ask that will Weber, Dayton, I think,

631
00:45:49,660 --> 00:45:55,360
does have, they did for strife, I think, do some restrictions so they did put some signage

632
00:45:55,360 --> 00:45:57,800
up there about restricting a little bit on their path.

633
00:45:57,980 --> 00:46:04,040
I think it's mostly that level two, level three, I'm sorry, electric bike, which is essentially

634
00:46:04,040 --> 00:46:08,300
the equivalent of the mo pet, I think that probably, and I think being consistent with him

635
00:46:08,300 --> 00:46:09,100
would make sense.

636
00:46:13,850 --> 00:46:18,870
Is my understanding correct that currently we do not allow any bikes?

637
00:46:23,240 --> 00:46:28,820
Well, we don't allow, it says it now, but they're in the park, so it's hard for them to

638
00:46:28,820 --> 00:46:32,740
allow bicycles to be done on that river walk.

639
00:46:33,260 --> 00:46:37,340
That is the other than the essentially your, yeah, one that's essentially motor vehicles.

640
00:46:37,340 --> 00:46:43,300
And that's the other thing we say none, but kids write bikes on the skate park, which is fine.

641
00:46:43,740 --> 00:46:46,040
So I think we need to revise it to say that they can be on the skate park.

642
00:46:46,040 --> 00:46:48,460
Yeah, but that's technically a sidewalk, so they would be in the park.

643
00:46:48,460 --> 00:46:49,800
Well, it's at any park.

644
00:46:50,400 --> 00:46:51,380
Oh, where is the park?

645
00:46:51,520 --> 00:46:52,260
Yeah, it's okay.

646
00:46:52,540 --> 00:46:52,560
Yeah.

647
00:46:53,200 --> 00:46:58,960
So I think we lift it for the park and for the river walk, for the, at least for the skate park.

648
00:46:59,200 --> 00:46:59,280
Okay.

649
00:47:01,620 --> 00:47:07,740
Yeah, right now it says, um, new advice that go on public park playground play live.

650
00:47:08,060 --> 00:47:10,900
We're taught a lot except for on a roadway or in the parking area.

651
00:47:10,900 --> 00:47:13,260
So we let them on this skate park.

652
00:47:13,440 --> 00:47:17,180
Well, they dropped down off the street and ride right right on in through.

653
00:47:17,640 --> 00:47:19,100
So, um,

654
00:47:22,000 --> 00:47:24,380
it's hard to force it on how you're going to force it.

655
00:47:24,420 --> 00:47:24,780
I don't know.

656
00:47:24,960 --> 00:47:28,500
I think we've mainly only, I guess.

657
00:47:28,500 --> 00:47:39,580
Yeah, yeah, I would only, unless someone's acting dangerously or I would imagine, I wonder what year was that ordinance amended or passed?

658
00:47:39,920 --> 00:47:41,580
1996. Interesting.

659
00:47:43,800 --> 00:47:44,640
That's been a while.

660
00:47:44,900 --> 00:47:47,780
Okay. All right. So we definitely need to...

661
00:47:47,780 --> 00:47:50,680
So you're saying on the river wall, no level three.

662
00:47:51,320 --> 00:47:51,600
Correct.

663
00:47:52,140 --> 00:47:53,520
How do you determine a level three?

664
00:47:54,140 --> 00:47:55,440
There will be a definition there.

665
00:47:55,440 --> 00:47:59,980
And at a level three, that is the type of electronic vibe that you actually do have to register

666
00:47:59,980 --> 00:48:00,480
with the OT.

667
00:48:01,060 --> 00:48:07,780
So it has certain functions that it's not exactly a mo pad, but it's equivalent to a

668
00:48:07,780 --> 00:48:12,100
mo pad where you do, you should be 16 years old, I think you should be licensed.

669
00:48:13,020 --> 00:48:15,760
Those people are supposed to think you can kind of speak to that as well.

670
00:48:15,860 --> 00:48:16,180
These are.

671
00:48:19,580 --> 00:48:19,760
Yeah.

672
00:48:19,760 --> 00:48:22,160
Oh, there's something on the bike itself.

673
00:48:22,160 --> 00:48:27,580
Yeah, so I think there it really comes from I think a federal statute kind of where these definitions are coming from the state

674
00:48:27,580 --> 00:48:29,900
Has not adopted them right as separate definitions

675
00:48:29,900 --> 00:48:36,020
But I think the cities are getting their definitions from the federal government and then if you tweak your level one or level two

676
00:48:36,020 --> 00:48:41,300
Evike and make it to where it functions like a level three then then you would you're supposed to register it as well

677
00:48:41,300 --> 00:48:46,200
And isn't there a speed limit to on the level three don't they go like 35?

678
00:48:46,500 --> 00:48:49,600
They can go like 28 six out in my mind

679
00:48:49,600 --> 00:48:54,720
they can go through the past. Do you have a speed limit on that for level three? Do you know?

680
00:48:55,640 --> 00:48:56,040
Okay.

681
00:49:00,200 --> 00:49:03,940
So I know it was mentioned about like permitting or registration. Zach and I have looked

682
00:49:03,940 --> 00:49:09,480
at that. We have not found any other city that has registered. The golf carts are different because

683
00:49:09,480 --> 00:49:13,440
you have a specific care rest that lets you permit. So I do think that might be something to

684
00:49:14,000 --> 00:49:18,660
bring to the general assembly. This is kind of a problem that might be something for people to

685
00:49:18,660 --> 00:49:22,100
advocate for them to allow, to get that authorization to allow.

686
00:49:22,240 --> 00:49:24,500
But I don't think we could, other than the level for

687
00:49:24,500 --> 00:49:28,460
I don't think you're going to get registration on a local level

688
00:49:28,460 --> 00:49:31,340
until we get some sort of statutory permission.

689
00:49:32,060 --> 00:49:35,140
So you can have a golf cart on the riverwalk?

690
00:49:36,140 --> 00:49:36,300
Please.

691
00:49:37,220 --> 00:49:37,480
For now.

692
00:49:38,020 --> 00:49:39,600
I don't think I'll address that with a golf cart.

693
00:49:39,600 --> 00:49:40,580
I don't think we've addressed that.

694
00:49:40,900 --> 00:49:41,420
I don't think that.

695
00:49:41,640 --> 00:49:43,560
And if we want to amend, we should update that.

696
00:49:44,080 --> 00:49:45,540
I put that currently we have the,

697
00:49:48,480 --> 00:49:48,480
what

698
00:49:48,480 --> 00:49:53,400
I want things, yeah, that are only unlocked during events so that we can get

699
00:49:54,900 --> 00:50:00,340
performers through or food trucks, former disease vehicles, but you should not be able to access it

700
00:50:00,980 --> 00:50:05,140
unless you've really went all through to try to get back on it, but I think

701
00:50:05,980 --> 00:50:10,000
I think we're fine there. I don't know. What if we would like to amend the cyber board?

702
00:50:10,120 --> 00:50:12,420
I'm just asking a question. I don't know the answer on me.

703
00:50:12,420 --> 00:50:19,440
Yeah, I think we probably want to check with low-weather and see what the other city I don't think it makes sense to allow it

704
00:50:19,440 --> 00:50:23,520
Just on one portion of the trail. I think it will make me

705
00:50:23,520 --> 00:50:29,380
Yeah, so we can check on that I brought it up as because the registration question was brought up

706
00:50:29,380 --> 00:50:34,540
We can permit the golf carts because there's a statute that says we can permit the golf carts on a Kentucky level

707
00:50:34,540 --> 00:50:35,920
They have care as for garden

708
00:50:36,940 --> 00:50:39,060
And then just the other thing is just penalties

709
00:50:40,280 --> 00:50:44,460
Some cities do the civil fines and then you can appeal it to your code enforcement board.

710
00:50:44,860 --> 00:50:48,920
Some cities make it a criminal violation or a misdemeanor and then they get cited to court.

711
00:50:50,980 --> 00:50:55,820
There are so many cities that are holding the parents responsible, and then some of the cities

712
00:50:55,820 --> 00:51:00,700
who are trying to impound the vehicles, the bicycles until the fines are paid, which is kind

713
00:51:00,700 --> 00:51:01,520
of thoughts on.

714
00:51:01,800 --> 00:51:07,440
How would that work since we don't have a code enforcement or joint code enforcement board?

715
00:51:07,440 --> 00:51:12,740
Okay, so this would be like what's PDF this is something that the other cities are sending or they're comfortable

716
00:51:13,360 --> 00:51:15,020
Okay, not taking on as in peel

717
00:51:15,020 --> 00:51:20,820
And then also need to type of accounting attorney's office see what their comfortability is with

718
00:51:20,820 --> 00:51:22,700
Well, I get there's some preference on

719
00:51:23,280 --> 00:51:25,720
On what but I think it is kind of in the northern Bulgaria

720
00:51:25,720 --> 00:51:27,780
It's kind of 50-50 feet shot and wet

721
00:51:28,320 --> 00:51:30,380
Which ones which one is being used

722
00:51:31,040 --> 00:51:31,320
Right

723
00:51:31,980 --> 00:51:33,000
Is that something?

724
00:51:33,600 --> 00:51:35,260
Council would do we think

725
00:51:35,260 --> 00:51:38,020
like, civil or criminal would be something we would,

726
00:51:38,180 --> 00:51:39,920
I think civil would probably be more

727
00:51:40,280 --> 00:51:41,380
our criminal justice system.

728
00:51:41,500 --> 00:51:44,060
To be not my friends, but I just want to add that to it.

729
00:51:48,840 --> 00:51:50,600
And as far as if they are,

730
00:51:52,080 --> 00:51:53,980
if you're riding your bicycle in the street,

731
00:51:53,980 --> 00:51:55,600
you still have to have a track that was those things

732
00:51:55,600 --> 00:51:57,720
will always, right, can always be cited

733
00:51:57,720 --> 00:51:58,920
at criminal court if you're speeding

734
00:51:58,920 --> 00:52:00,060
or if you're running red lights,

735
00:52:00,480 --> 00:52:01,860
not using your proper signals,

736
00:52:02,020 --> 00:52:03,080
those types of things with storming.

737
00:52:06,280 --> 00:52:08,400
In the last meeting, the mayor brought up the idea

738
00:52:08,400 --> 00:52:14,740
of doing like a registry with the city would that be for as we're talking about

739
00:52:14,740 --> 00:52:19,780
levels one two and three. I don't think we can do. I think we would I think we

740
00:52:19,780 --> 00:52:24,500
probably need to care us to authorize the city do that kind of. Okay. That doesn't

741
00:52:24,500 --> 00:52:28,640
get it because it does with the golf. Okay. Thank you. Sorry. I'm a suffer. No worries.

742
00:52:30,140 --> 00:52:33,680
Those were kind of the topics. Zach and I highlighted. Zach, did you did I miss

743
00:52:33,680 --> 00:52:34,060
anything?

744
00:52:38,940 --> 00:52:44,160
Or did you all have any other thoughts on things that you would like to see included

745
00:52:44,160 --> 00:52:50,040
based off of? I think our plan is also to talk to Chief Beck, probably Shane and Jamie

746
00:52:50,040 --> 00:52:55,100
to see if they have any other issues with their senior city, if they think we can be concluded,

747
00:52:55,240 --> 00:52:59,880
come back with a first reading for you all. And then we can always do, if there's some tweaks

748
00:52:59,880 --> 00:53:02,580
that you guys want to have made, we can always come back and do a second first reading.

749
00:53:02,580 --> 00:53:02,980
Thank you.

750
00:53:04,200 --> 00:53:06,180
No giant brush on this, I don't think, but.

751
00:53:06,380 --> 00:53:09,460
And also something that we discussed, Michelle,

752
00:53:09,760 --> 00:53:13,020
is that maybe we can have her to further our officer

753
00:53:13,020 --> 00:53:15,440
to school, start giving some presentations,

754
00:53:15,860 --> 00:53:17,960
just giving some information about e-bikes

755
00:53:17,960 --> 00:53:22,820
and how to, you know, how they should be behaving on their bikes.

756
00:53:23,120 --> 00:53:25,920
And in what areas they should be getting off of their bikes

757
00:53:25,920 --> 00:53:28,560
and walking it, just for safety purposes.

758
00:53:29,120 --> 00:53:31,660
To ensure that I'm sure he may already be doing something

759
00:53:31,660 --> 00:53:38,140
But I think just having a conversation that maybe we should do more of those or at all or not I

760
00:53:39,120 --> 00:53:43,100
Remember having that the those type of officers come in and give these presentations

761
00:53:43,100 --> 00:53:51,100
And I was a kid on bike safety and how to behave on the road and just just to try and give that information out to the kids at the school

762
00:53:51,100 --> 00:53:59,240
And I think to be fair once we passed the ordinance that I think it should be presented to the like in the forum to the school so that they know

763
00:53:59,240 --> 00:54:00,500
So, I think it's subchanged.

764
00:54:00,700 --> 00:54:00,800
Right.

765
00:54:01,140 --> 00:54:01,500
Exactly.

766
00:54:02,400 --> 00:54:06,240
And I think I did like, I think it was the fourth Thomas ordinance they did have at the

767
00:54:06,240 --> 00:54:11,020
first, your first offense is a warning and if it's a child who's doing it, you send

768
00:54:11,020 --> 00:54:14,740
that warning to the parent, you send them a copy of an ordinance, I think that's good education

769
00:54:14,740 --> 00:54:19,940
for the community as well, do that and I do think Alexander I think it's a pretty good

770
00:54:19,940 --> 00:54:24,180
FAQ they put up on their website that I think would be nice to do that you can put it in.

771
00:54:24,320 --> 00:54:28,260
They put it more in plain language and the ordinance language to help it help people understand

772
00:54:28,260 --> 00:54:29,540
and what the new rules are.

773
00:54:30,520 --> 00:54:32,200
First warning is always appropriate.

774
00:54:33,640 --> 00:54:35,700
And then I guess it was their thoughts on

775
00:54:35,700 --> 00:54:38,080
some of these cities are going to impound the bicycle

776
00:54:38,080 --> 00:54:40,940
for two hours, until the civil five state.

777
00:54:41,040 --> 00:54:42,540
I check with Chief Beck, he does think

778
00:54:43,200 --> 00:54:45,500
if the city wanted to go that route, they do have room

779
00:54:46,020 --> 00:54:49,020
for that, but what is your thoughts on?

780
00:54:49,320 --> 00:54:52,300
I think we have to, I think at one point,

781
00:54:53,220 --> 00:54:55,780
you're gonna have somebody that's going to push the limit.

782
00:54:55,780 --> 00:55:03,080
And that's just that there's no other option, but I think we have to be careful about how that number that we pick

783
00:55:03,080 --> 00:55:09,160
Yeah, so that it doesn't get so punitive that the kids are afraid to get on the right right

784
00:55:10,020 --> 00:55:13,160
What do you think a good number of warnings would be before even addressing?

785
00:55:13,160 --> 00:55:16,900
I think I know one it I feel like it was one work now all the ones are running together in my head

786
00:55:16,900 --> 00:55:19,200
I think one of them said I guess it's you know

787
00:55:19,920 --> 00:55:28,200
I want you to take your 4th time, we're going to kind of take it and you don't get it back until you've had your fines.

788
00:55:28,720 --> 00:55:31,580
And what type of fines do we think that that amount should be?

789
00:55:32,280 --> 00:55:36,940
They were the ones I've read for small, like 50, 25, 50 is what I thought.

790
00:55:37,040 --> 00:55:37,620
It's still appropriate.

791
00:55:39,280 --> 00:55:42,740
You can kind of level it up like you do with code in general for the enforcement.

792
00:55:42,740 --> 00:55:43,020
Okay,

793
00:55:51,940 --> 00:55:58,500
I don't have any other topics written down on us anyone else had topics that they saw they would like to talk about

794
00:56:00,080 --> 00:56:00,520
So

795
00:56:01,600 --> 00:56:07,380
I guess we'll continue this conversation we'll pull together what we talked about tonight and we get a little bit more at the next

796
00:56:08,640 --> 00:56:10,340
Next meeting all right

797
00:56:13,460 --> 00:56:17,680
All right, so next on agenda's new business of which we have none and

798
00:56:18,800 --> 00:56:23,540
Then next on the agenda following that is announcements and I will start with this gracious

799
00:56:25,800 --> 00:56:26,760
Mr. Ziegler?

800
00:56:26,960 --> 00:56:27,240
Love you.

801
00:56:27,600 --> 00:56:27,860
All right.

802
00:56:28,400 --> 00:56:29,800
This is Terry DeVar.

803
00:56:30,100 --> 00:56:30,900
Thank you.

804
00:56:32,280 --> 00:56:34,620
September 9th is the next walking clock.

805
00:56:35,060 --> 00:56:35,280
All right.

806
00:56:37,480 --> 00:56:40,500
We're going to switch things up a little bit this coming time.

807
00:56:41,900 --> 00:56:44,460
So walk-talk and trash will start at 5 o'clock.

808
00:56:44,920 --> 00:56:49,040
And one of the events we're going to do is go down to the riverbank

809
00:56:49,040 --> 00:56:52,520
and dig up some of the pottery that's down there to try and

810
00:56:52,520 --> 00:56:59,800
do some kind of project in the future yeah we're gonna do 5 to 630 location that

811
00:56:59,800 --> 00:57:04,600
we're going to meet has still not been determined so watch Facebook for

812
00:57:04,600 --> 00:57:10,640
that and then by the way in bloom we'll start at 630 and rental 730 and that

813
00:57:10,640 --> 00:57:18,480
location has not been chosen yet so watch Facebook this got ready yeah I had two

814
00:57:18,480 --> 00:57:25,980
questions. The first, I wanted to just circle back on Wayne. Can I ask why council

815
00:57:25,980 --> 00:57:31,700
wasn't notified if yesterday was his last day when he resigned? I'm notified now

816
00:57:31,700 --> 00:57:36,780
of the council meeting. When did he resign? He sent his resignation last week on Monday.

817
00:57:37,080 --> 00:57:43,600
Okay. Was there a reason we waited to inform council tonight? I'm just asking if there's

818
00:57:43,600 --> 00:57:45,060
This is when you're all convening today.

819
00:57:45,300 --> 00:57:46,160
Oh, gotta be the information.

820
00:57:46,280 --> 00:57:48,480
Okay, I was wasn't sure, like with an email

821
00:57:48,480 --> 00:57:51,080
in terms of transparency and open communication,

822
00:57:51,220 --> 00:57:53,440
it's a critical position for councils,

823
00:57:53,660 --> 00:57:56,840
so it's important to know when a position like that

824
00:57:56,840 --> 00:57:58,580
is vacant, so just curious.

825
00:57:59,460 --> 00:58:03,080
And then speaking of some just like important decisions

826
00:58:03,080 --> 00:58:04,720
that council will have to make,

827
00:58:04,860 --> 00:58:08,580
I'm curious if we have any updates on the tax rate.

828
00:58:09,020 --> 00:58:12,220
Because my understanding is we have to vote on that

829
00:58:12,220 --> 00:58:13,120
by the end of September.

830
00:58:13,500 --> 00:58:13,520
Right.

831
00:58:14,040 --> 00:58:18,060
We've just recently received that, so we will be having the discussions at the next

832
00:58:18,060 --> 00:58:18,620
council meeting.

833
00:58:18,940 --> 00:58:24,760
I think Lori has, I think, put the process in to have it advertised so that way it can

834
00:58:24,760 --> 00:58:31,860
be discussed at the first reading of the first second reading to the two September meetings.

835
00:58:31,860 --> 00:58:31,960
Okay.

836
00:58:32,220 --> 00:58:33,000
Which I think is common.

837
00:58:33,120 --> 00:58:36,420
Most cities do both of the first and second reading in September.

838
00:58:36,900 --> 00:58:37,080
Okay.

839
00:58:37,520 --> 00:58:39,300
You say you received the information already?

840
00:58:39,600 --> 00:58:39,800
Mm-hmm.

841
00:58:39,960 --> 00:58:41,100
Could you send that out?

842
00:58:41,100 --> 00:58:42,460
We haven't done it out yet.

843
00:58:42,660 --> 00:58:43,220
Can you?

844
00:58:43,560 --> 00:58:46,560
But Lori, she is out of training this week,

845
00:58:46,680 --> 00:58:48,880
so once she's back, we'll get better first.

846
00:58:48,920 --> 00:58:49,560
Should I have Monday?

847
00:58:50,220 --> 00:58:50,300
Yep.

848
00:58:50,540 --> 00:58:50,840
Okay, thank you.

849
00:58:51,600 --> 00:58:53,720
Yeah, the reason that I asked is just in case

850
00:58:53,720 --> 00:58:56,740
we do need to have some special meetings on that.

851
00:58:57,020 --> 00:58:58,680
I just wanted to let council know.

852
00:58:58,780 --> 00:59:00,420
I'll be traveling a lot in September.

853
00:59:00,900 --> 00:59:03,300
I'll be here for the first council meeting in September

854
00:59:04,120 --> 00:59:07,720
and then I'll be here through the 23rd

855
00:59:07,720 --> 00:59:10,700
and then I will be gone the 24th through the 3rd.

856
00:59:10,700 --> 00:59:13,560
So if needed for special meetings,

857
00:59:14,200 --> 00:59:16,860
I would ask that we do that before the 23rd,

858
00:59:16,860 --> 00:59:18,260
if we need to put anything on the calendar.

859
00:59:18,500 --> 00:59:20,500
So that's why I asked him to try to be proactive

860
00:59:20,500 --> 00:59:23,440
with the schedule if we needed to have multiple sessions

861
00:59:23,440 --> 00:59:25,300
in September given that we're at the end of August

862
00:59:25,300 --> 00:59:25,920
and haven't.

863
00:59:26,160 --> 00:59:28,300
I don't think that there's any additional meetings on this.

864
00:59:28,500 --> 00:59:29,840
I think we'll be fine.

865
00:59:30,220 --> 00:59:31,460
We'll have the presentation.

866
00:59:32,120 --> 00:59:33,960
You should have be prepared in the ordinance

867
00:59:33,960 --> 00:59:35,780
to have an explaining correct.

868
00:59:36,280 --> 00:59:37,320
Yes, you'll get it.

869
00:59:37,320 --> 00:59:39,680
Lori had asked us to have the ordinance

870
00:59:39,680 --> 00:59:48,920
is ready to read at the first meeting in September and then I don't know if she's, she does not

871
00:59:48,920 --> 00:59:52,900
I'm not giving us the dates for the ad yet, but I'm sure she is working on that.

872
00:59:53,600 --> 00:59:55,620
All right.

873
00:59:56,300 --> 00:59:57,160
Let's reach out to my team.

874
01:00:02,220 --> 01:00:29,740
We'll need to adjourn the move into the next, right, or we have to read that out. We have to read that out, so we've got to can adjourn you to begin. All right. So we have an executive session pursuant to CARE S-61.810 subsections G for discussions between a public agency and a representative of the business entity and discussions concerning a specific proposal. If open discussions would jeopardize the sighting, retention, expansion, or upgrading of the business.

875
01:00:30,240 --> 01:00:33,380
So I would just need a motion to move into executive session.

876
01:00:44,230 --> 01:00:45,230
Thank you.

877
01:00:45,550 --> 01:00:46,970
I have a second.

878
01:00:48,730 --> 01:00:51,370
All right. All in favor, to move to executive session, say aye.

879
01:00:52,390 --> 01:00:53,070
All opposed, nay.

880
01:00:54,030 --> 01:00:58,330
We will now be moving into an executive session, so everyone must exit.

881
01:00:58,650 --> 01:00:59,410
Chambers, please.

882
01:00:59,410 --> 01:00:59,630
Yes.

883
01:00:59,890 --> 01:01:01,850
Thank you.

884
01:01:02,250 --> 01:01:02,790
Good.

885
01:01:03,250 --> 01:01:03,650
All right.
