Um but thank you. Welcome to come out and go to that tonight we're 83 00:10:10,879 --> 00:10:10,879 gonna give an overview of 33 events are three things that we really worked hard over the last 84 00:10:17,252 --> 00:10:17,252 few months to bring together and , uh, first before going in. This is important to note that 85 00:10:23,425 --> 00:10:23,425 honda since 1970 nineties invested over $14 billion in ohio. About half that is in our 86 00:10:30,632 --> 00:10:30,632 county were blessed with what honda has done. They've constructed over well over 4 87 00:10:35,136 --> 00:10:35,136 million square feet in the county. It is the heart of holiday in north america, and it 88 00:10:40,475 --> 00:10:40,475 continues to be that way. And we're proud of that. But to follow honda, we now have 2010 89 00:10:45,514 --> 00:10:45,514 japanese companies that called mary's one union county at home and so that is one of the 90 00:10:51,687 --> 00:10:51,687 reasons why we do this mission and why it's important to our future. Furthermore we have one 91 00:10:57,192 --> 00:10:57,192 of the largest k 12 and japanese language programs in ohio. You here that said a lot. We have 92 00:11:02,164 --> 00:11:02,164 the columbus japanese language or excuse me to columbus, japanese saturday school here at 93 00:11:07,502 --> 00:11:07,502 marysville, so we have a huge japanese presence in our community. And this last month 94 00:11:14,476 --> 00:11:14,476 has been a number of things, including a student exchange program, the grassroots summit 95 00:11:18,513 --> 00:11:18,513 that I'll talk about as well as your you're paying mission. A lot of people here tonight. 96 00:11:24,019 --> 00:11:27,990 we're part of that mission, and I know the president council. Hank was with us. Terry was with us. We have j. Reilly who attended as a fire chief at that time need to knowles from the 97 00:11:34,262 --> 00:11:34,262 library. And I can't forget jenelle. Jenelle actually took us to the airport at 3 a.m. In 98 00:11:38,700 --> 00:11:38,700 the morning and she was there to pick us up and bring us home. So we appreciate you, nell and her 99 00:11:44,140 --> 00:11:44,140 time that she spent with us as well. And stop me. I'm gonna go through these sites quickly. I 100 00:11:48,410 --> 00:11:48,410 know that hank and terry and others are going to order talk as well. But really, this is 101 00:11:53,683 --> 00:11:53,683 what I'm going to talk about it kind of give you an overview. But his first important to talk 102 00:11:57,987 --> 00:11:57,987 about first our accomplishments in 2012 and 2013 to talk about the japanese mission and why we 103 00:12:05,494 --> 00:12:05,494 do it. We did a sister city city visitor friendship seat of it to your e. We did the midwest years 104 00:12:09,699 --> 00:12:09,699 japan conference. We did business retention visits, as well as expansion visits as well 105 00:12:15,204 --> 00:12:15,204 student exchange program and also the grassroots summit. So looking at, you know some of the 106 00:12:21,443 --> 00:12:21,443 things that we worked on. We actually had the former consul general among sudarsan. Actually 107 00:12:27,850 --> 00:12:27,850 this is actually 2013 not 2012. This is when we started the friendship city with your machi 108 00:12:33,889 --> 00:12:33,889 , and this was actually then mayor gore and in monsoon season who were signing, actually not 109 00:12:38,894 --> 00:12:38,894 miss citizen. This is, um mayor mcada chamonix on my suit is arm was in the consul general who 110 00:12:46,368 --> 00:12:46,368 actually set up the relationship between us and your e. But this is them, signing it in the fire 111 00:12:50,839 --> 00:12:50,839 station, actually, and this started the relationship between yuri machi reason why we were 112 00:12:56,178 --> 00:12:56,178 matched. When you worry monty from susan was because you already had the newest honda 113 00:13:00,816 --> 00:13:00,816 plant in japan and still is the newest how to plant in japan. We have the oldest japanese honda 114 00:13:07,390 --> 00:13:07,390 plant in the u. S. But this was done in december of 2013. So some of the things that we work 115 00:13:15,131 --> 00:13:15,131 on or have worked on since 2013 . You can see we've done five missions to japan. We have a 116 00:13:20,636 --> 00:13:20,636 friendship garden, the city investor partners park. There is a stone or a rock. It's hard to 117 00:13:26,175 --> 00:13:26,175 call it a stone. It's massive, isn't it? A ton of how much does it weigh? Jeremy we waited. Did 118 00:13:32,214 --> 00:13:32,214 we not see it weighs a lot multiple tons. But actually is from the arakawa river. There, 119 00:13:38,153 --> 00:13:38,153 eric are river goes through your demaci headwaters are in the blue mountains, which are next 120 00:13:43,392 --> 00:13:43,392 to your e headwaters of tokyo bay, so it falls flows into tokyo bay as well. Our gift back 121 00:13:48,498 --> 00:13:48,498 to your machi was a three d printed covered bridge parkersburg bridge that was done 122 00:13:54,370 --> 00:13:54,370 by students bustled. In partnership with honda, and that was 35 inches in length. We have 123 00:14:00,409 --> 00:14:00,409 a replica down in down in the as you enter into city hall. But we have that and it was also 124 00:14:06,148 --> 00:14:06,148 installed or placed on 100 year old barn wood, and that's that's that's another thing that's 125 00:14:10,819 --> 00:14:10,819 important with our history to show him the bridge to the future and what we want to do 126 00:14:16,158 --> 00:14:16,158 from a history standpoint, we also are working with miramonte hassan kiko. She went on the 127 00:14:21,197 --> 00:14:21,197 trip with us and talked about japantown. We actually have a contingent from the division of 128 00:14:26,869 --> 00:14:26,869 land ministry from japan, actually visiting marysville later this month. The talk about 129 00:14:31,473 --> 00:14:31,473 japantown and what it means to japan and also the companies we started in 2020, a group of 130 00:14:37,346 --> 00:14:37,346 logan, miami, shelby and union counties to talk about the importance of honda each of our 131 00:14:42,451 --> 00:14:42,451 respective communities because each heart has a facility each of these communities and now now 132 00:14:46,455 --> 00:14:46,455 we've added fayette county to that list as well. And then we also have a friendship committee 133 00:14:51,293 --> 00:14:51,293 that oversees a lot of these activities to further the relationship with japan. So some 134 00:14:56,732 --> 00:14:56,732 of our youth focused efforts very important part of this.

It's a very small city because tokyo when 154 00:17:04,260 --> 00:17:04,260 you have 35 million people, everything seems very small when you're in a city when the city 155 00:17:09,732 --> 00:17:09,732 that large this is our welcome sarah ceremony. When we first arrived, and you were machi we 156 00:17:16,072 --> 00:17:16,072 actually arrived on we left mary's well on a on a saturday morning we arrived in newry and 157 00:17:22,212 --> 00:17:22,212 excuse me in tokyo on a sunday afternoon, and we had our first meeting on monday morning at 158 00:17:28,884 --> 00:17:32,222 your e city hall. But this is mayor. Many dishy that actually addressing the crowd, and this is a picture that mayor burr b. And many catchy song actually took as part of the welcome 159 00:17:38,528 --> 00:17:38,528 ceremony. This is our welcome the marrow dress at the dinner, first dinner mayor burbey to the 160 00:17:44,633 --> 00:17:44,633 left, and we have mitigation song to the right if you notice there are these shirts that 161 00:17:49,873 --> 00:17:49,873 everyone is wearing the city bought those as part of our celebration to celebrate our 10 162 00:17:56,279 --> 00:17:56,279 year anniversary. It has the marysville logo in new york machi logo on those shirts and 163 00:18:00,883 --> 00:18:00,883 typically japanese are going to dress up when they come to events like this, but a ton of 164 00:18:06,456 --> 00:18:06,456 them more. The t shirts like I think that was terry's idea. It was really cool idea because it 165 00:18:12,229 --> 00:18:12,229 brought down the formality. I think of some of the situations honda you replant. As you can 166 00:18:18,535 --> 00:18:18,535 see to the left. This is a haunted dealership to the right. The ori plant is pretty amazing 167 00:18:23,740 --> 00:18:23,740 and massive. It's I think it's the largest manufacturing plant in japan newest plant as well. 168 00:18:28,444 --> 00:18:28,444 they actually combined a couple plans to make that plan a reality. It sits on on time but 169 00:18:33,416 --> 00:18:33,416 like a mountain of major hill, but it's a really cool experience to go through the 170 00:18:37,988 --> 00:18:37,988 tour and understand the what it means they're holding. It's different than our plant. When 171 00:18:43,993 --> 00:18:43,993 you go to marries water plant. It's a little older as we know it's so. Our plans a little bit 172 00:18:49,465 --> 00:18:49,465 more confined when you look at our plant where their plan is more open and very easy to get 173 00:18:54,538 --> 00:18:54,538 through as well, but it's a cool experience to go there. So this is the fire department states. 174 00:18:59,476 --> 00:18:59,476 I'm gonna have j. Reilly come up and talk about the fire exchange that we had during our visit. 175 00:19:04,881 --> 00:19:04,881 just gonna do it from back here. Um we had a great exchange. Um, I was able to meet with the fire 176 00:19:10,387 --> 00:19:14,324 chief from your e. We talked a lot about how the structure of the fire department is. There's this regionalized where that's where our state legislature wants us to go to, and they're 177 00:19:20,797 --> 00:19:20,797 looking to go regress back to be locally controlled. Um very interesting. Um we were able to 178 00:19:28,638 --> 00:19:28,638 experience them. They went on the run while we were there. The chief and I sat and talked at 179 00:19:33,209 --> 00:19:33,209 length and then I was able to invite him to come to marysville. Next year. Um from 180 00:19:39,249 --> 00:19:39,249 there, we went to tokyo and I visited the local tokyo fire department. Um tokyo fire 181 00:19:44,688 --> 00:19:44,688 department has 18,600 firefighters. It's the largest fire department in the world, 182 00:19:50,027 --> 00:19:50,027 and, uh they were very welcoming . They are. They are great lovers of history. They have 183 00:19:55,866 --> 00:19:55,866 fantastic information really showed me disappointed the fire department from there we went to 184 00:20:01,904 --> 00:20:01,904 osaka and I visit the osaka fire department made contacts there as well. Learned a lot about e. 185 00:20:07,177 --> 00:20:07,177 m s and what their level of services. Um how it's very different from ours are 186 00:20:13,750 --> 00:20:13,750 paramedics are much higher, trained and able to give different skills, so it's 187 00:20:19,689 --> 00:20:19,689 interesting what their level of what they consider paramedic is to what what we provide here in 188 00:20:24,294 --> 00:20:24,294 marysville and then because I had such a good visit at the tokyo fire department, they 189 00:20:29,933 --> 00:20:29,933 invited me back to the headquarters when we went back to tokyo. Um I was able to go to 190 00:20:34,204 --> 00:20:34,204 their regional headquarters in downtown do the imperial palace and once again fantastic lot of 191 00:20:40,644 --> 00:20:40,644 information. I actually went to achieve burns's officers meeting last week and did an in depth 192 00:20:48,151 --> 00:20:48,151 presentation to them to make sure that they were aware of this and to be part of future 193 00:20:53,924 --> 00:20:53,924 relations with your fire department. So thank you. Thank you. Really cool experience. All 194 00:21:02,866 --> 00:21:02,866 of us got a chance to go to the fire department. It's really cool to see this is actually a 195 00:21:07,604 --> 00:21:07,604 training building to the rear, where they train and multiple story buildings as well. Right 196 00:21:12,042 --> 00:21:12,042 behind the fire department. It was right next to our hotel, so it's very convenient. Next we 197 00:21:16,613 --> 00:21:16,613 have a library exchange and I'm not going to steal the thunder niece and he says, part of that 198 00:21:21,484 --> 00:21:21,484 and actually has some great things going on in our lives to support your readers. Well yes. 199 00:21:26,289 --> 00:21:26,289 so we did a library exchange this past year with iori library and I have to admit that when I 200 00:21:31,061 --> 00:21:31,061 got there, I have never felt like so much of a celebrity. Um they were the their director was 201 00:21:38,268 --> 00:21:38,268 you go here? Hiroshima? And she was so excited to see me couldn't believe I had really 202 00:21:47,777 --> 00:21:47,777 come. And I think I had a little bit of tears in my eyes, too, because I couldn't believe I was 203 00:21:52,616 --> 00:21:52,616 really there. Um we have sent their library a box of books about marysville about ohio. Um 204 00:22:04,694 --> 00:22:04,694 . Some community reports, county and city reports and since I was sending reports, I also decided 205 00:22:12,136 --> 00:22:12,136 well, let's just talk the library annual report in here, too. She had read that cover to 206 00:22:18,475 --> 00:22:18,475 cover. Not that it's that long. It's only you know, four pages but had read the whole thing had 207 00:22:25,715 --> 00:22:25,715 had translated the parts. She didn't understand herself. And just could not believe the 208 00:22:31,054 --> 00:22:31,054 number of people we had coming into our library and the, um, circulation the usage like we 209 00:22:38,395 --> 00:22:38,395 have well. In fairness, ohio does have the highest library usage in the country. So I try 210 00:22:45,001 --> 00:22:45,001 to put that into perspective for myself. Um but they made a beautiful display. And I just 211 00:22:54,711 --> 00:22:54,711 behind us here on the photos and they made a wonderful display. We have a lot to live up to. 212 00:23:02,352 --> 00:23:02,352 when they come to visit us to come with up with an equally vibrant display that represents 213 00:23:08,758 --> 00:23:08,758 the sister city program. It was magnificent and I am so honored to have been invited to 214 00:23:16,833 --> 00:23:16,833 participate in this program. They also sent us a box of materials to do with your e and 215 00:23:22,707 --> 00:23:22,707 we have those on display. We also will be adding to the display them some of the 216 00:23:28,713 --> 00:23:28,713 materials she gave us for our library when I visited, so thank you. Thank you for the 217 00:23:35,286 --> 00:23:35,286 invitation to go. That was just so interesting. Thank you, lisa. He did add a lot to the again. 218 00:23:43,894 --> 00:23:43,894 we do this for the youth. And that is another youth. I think, um, um, item to have because 219 00:23:49,666 --> 00:23:53,304 when the youth go to library, they can learn a lot more about our two communities very important. Speaking of that we went to the ori junior high school, and, uh, this was 220 00:23:59,476 --> 00:23:59,476 actually an english class that we got to participate or not participate. Really we just 221 00:24:03,647 --> 00:24:03,647 watched them and they were doing group sessions in talking in english, and we listen to them 222 00:24:09,519 --> 00:24:09,519 and they can speak in yourself a lot better. We can speak japanese, except for terry. He's 223 00:24:14,291 --> 00:24:14,291 fluent now in japanese. I think so. He's got it under control. This is again chichibu amounts 224 00:24:19,430 --> 00:24:19,430 to the top left eric holder river. Farming is so important to them and the care they give. 225 00:24:26,537 --> 00:24:26,537 and I wouldn't go. I guess everyone in the in our delegation and say why why 226 00:24:32,542 --> 00:24:36,380 didn't you mention this? They're asian pears are amazing. They're grapes are amazing. They're fruits are amazing and vegetables are amazing. That's tlc to everything they do from a 227 00:24:41,151 --> 00:24:41,151 vegetable stand point and you can eat the grapes and the grapes and this tells you about 228 00:24:46,824 --> 00:24:46,824 this. They are judged on the amount of sweetness in each grade, and that's how what the 229 00:24:50,828 --> 00:24:50,828 price of the grape is. So it's that's how they're judged and you eat one. It's kind of like a 230 00:24:55,699 --> 00:24:55,699 dorito relations potato. You can't stop eating the grapes when you're over there, but it's 231 00:25:00,705 --> 00:25:04,576 just amazing what they do with their fruits. Um the business retention visits. We had seven companies. Honda world headquarters, of course. Honfest facility in your e mini 232 00:25:09,880 --> 00:25:09,880 abatement. Sumi honda logistics , which also includes midwest express and one world logistics 233 00:25:15,753 --> 00:25:15,753 and international transport. Neon plastic parent of neat inc .

Jetro that's where we met with about 75 japanese companies that attended 235 00:25:28,665 --> 00:25:28,665 that they japan midwest us association conference in tokyo . And then we also met with the 236 00:25:35,606 --> 00:25:39,510 ministry of land, tearing myself with akiko to talk about japantown and what it means to japan. This is our first meeting or not meeting actually with with honda mayor burbey as well 237 00:25:46,417 --> 00:25:46,417 as commissioner burke attended this event with other officials from logan county, dublin in 238 00:25:51,222 --> 00:25:51,222 franklin county. You can see everyone in the picture, so this was the harder meeting. This 239 00:25:56,760 --> 00:25:56,760 isn't their world headquarters. The bottom floor of the honda would headquarters is a car 240 00:26:01,832 --> 00:26:05,269 dealership. Very very appropriate car dealerships that's cool. Ah this is mid abatement. Sumi this is former honda log based here in marysville. Um probably one of 241 00:26:10,141 --> 00:26:10,141 the more incredible visits that we had a really cool. This was actually an experience center 242 00:26:16,080 --> 00:26:16,080 for visitors that visited their headquarters. We got a sneak preview. It hadn't opened up.

With marysville going forward. We also drive ohio net call and others as well. 247 00:26:39,670 --> 00:26:42,640 participating with men abatement. Sumi. What?

This is actually the president more youku. He knows benny's pizza 256 00:27:33,491 --> 00:27:33,491 and he's the president. More youku, and in these meetings, benny's was a common common 257 00:27:38,662 --> 00:27:38,662 theme. People know mary's will for beddings, and it's kind of kind of strange, but but but 258 00:27:43,301 --> 00:27:43,301 it's also we know it and the japanese love bennies. And so they talk about that sumitomo. 259 00:27:48,573 --> 00:27:48,573 another important visit. Um and this was in osaka.

We actually had a reception at his residence , which is next the u. S embassy 264 00:28:22,507 --> 00:28:22,507 . He gave an amazing speech. It was raw, raw, raw about the midwest core values heart of the 265 00:28:29,414 --> 00:28:29,414 heart of the u. S. Flyover country, he said everything appropriate to talk about the 266 00:28:33,985 --> 00:28:33,985 midwest and did a great job. But we interacted with with rahm as well. We talked to the staff of 267 00:28:39,223 --> 00:28:39,223 the top left. That's the governor of saitama prefecture, next to mayor burbey ono song 268 00:28:44,495 --> 00:28:44,495 and again, we've invited him back to visit mary's and when he comes to columbus next year. 269 00:28:51,536 --> 00:28:51,536 this is the opening ceremony. Rome actually, we got to hear him the night before he spoke 270 00:28:56,107 --> 00:28:56,107 and did the same spiel the next day and talked about how important about 450 people 271 00:29:00,912 --> 00:29:00,912 attended where the largest delegation from ohio one of the reasons why we're hosting the 272 00:29:05,583 --> 00:29:05,583 conference next year. This is the jetro visit. This is these are japanese companies and it 273 00:29:11,956 --> 00:29:11,956 was really, really cool in this meeting. Right right. Terry was really, really cool. The air 274 00:29:16,261 --> 00:29:16,261 conditioners from there was hardly in here in this meeting, and we were pretty hot in this 275 00:29:21,999 --> 00:29:21,999 meeting, but it was a great opportunity to speak to these companies about expanding in the 276 00:29:26,037 --> 00:29:26,037 beta district and all the things that we're doing here, and we presented that to these 277 00:29:30,775 --> 00:29:30,775 companies. This is the mystery of land. We met with them to talk about japantown. That's 278 00:29:35,246 --> 00:29:35,246 akiko san, in the middle, of course, tearing myself this is lindsay from the city of dublin. 279 00:29:41,652 --> 00:29:45,156 so students change from first and foremost before I go that direction, terry, did I miss anything about the mission? No, you had it. Ah the exchange program. We had 10 students and 280 00:29:54,065 --> 00:29:54,065 three chaperones. I think some of all of you probably saw them around town, but they did a lot 281 00:29:59,371 --> 00:29:59,371 of things. They got to tour the heritage center. As you can see, they went to the japanese. 282 00:30:04,543 --> 00:30:04,543 saturday school. They visited and toured uptown marysville. They went to the stem school, 283 00:30:10,115 --> 00:30:10,115 coz I. Columbus zoo marysville,f activities during the eight days they were here. We had 10 host 284 00:30:16,197 --> 00:30:16,197 families. The three chaperone stayed in the hotel. And originally, if you recall the 285 00:30:21,569 --> 00:30:21,569 first year we did 16 students. 16 students are very, very hard to manage. So we went down to 10 286 00:30:27,575 --> 00:30:27,575 so but a great experience for these students again. Um they love american pizza. It's a 287 00:30:32,646 --> 00:30:32,646 common theme as well. They really love. These are more pictures here as well. During 288 00:30:36,850 --> 00:30:36,850 your visit, but they had a lot of fun and again their english. The building there with their 289 00:30:43,556 --> 00:30:43,556 english is so improved during the eight days they're here. This is that a commissioner's 290 00:30:49,096 --> 00:30:49,096 meeting. City council has never in session the week they're here would bring them here. They 291 00:30:53,901 --> 00:30:53,901 always come a week that you're that you're not in session. This is them going to the unit county 292 00:30:58,405 --> 00:30:58,405 courthouse. This is a picture of the last day. This is the farewell so ceremony where they 293 00:31:05,880 --> 00:31:05,880 got up and talked in english. Their speeches in english, which is pretty amazing. Grassroots 294 00:31:12,753 --> 00:31:12,753 summons. So this is an adult exchange program columbus hosted for the first time ever, and we 295 00:31:17,925 --> 00:31:17,925 had nine japanese with eight host families and I have to step back. We've had 18 host families 296 00:31:24,030 --> 00:31:24,030 in marysville, and this year families that have opened their doors to have students as well 297 00:31:29,903 --> 00:31:29,903 as adults be part of their family for a few days there during the summer. And I can't 298 00:31:34,608 --> 00:31:34,608 say enough about their ability and their willingness to be partners in this because that's 299 00:31:39,746 --> 00:31:39,746 what makes this really special to have eight families open their doors for nine adults. 300 00:31:44,151 --> 00:31:44,151 they were here we took him on a tour of uptown, the covered bridge tour. More youku tour 301 00:31:49,623 --> 00:31:49,623 mayors will stem school and mayors. Oh high school as part of their tour. There was there 302 00:31:54,028 --> 00:31:54,028 was a beginning ceremony and farewell ceremony as well. Um I think thank you participate in 303 00:31:58,299 --> 00:31:58,299 both of those as well. But it's a great experience of let them learn. Learn about america. Most 304 00:32:03,103 --> 00:32:03,103 of them had been to the u. S but it was they still learned a lot during during the visit, and I 305 00:32:08,542 --> 00:32:08,542 don't know hank, if you want to add anything to the visit. And not that particular visit. I 306 00:32:13,648 --> 00:32:13,648 have some comments about our other pieces. Very good. This is a picture. Other pictures 307 00:32:19,553 --> 00:32:19,553 covered bridge tour. Steve stoll , d, um, they showed up two hours early. We called steve the 308 00:32:25,559 --> 00:32:29,296 day before or the day before. They showed up two hours early. And hey, hick, archer. Hey steve , can you give him a tour of the covered bridge? He said, sure. And so he gave him a tour of the 309 00:32:34,467 --> 00:32:38,372 government bridges the next day, so we appreciate steve actually doing that. Just some pictures through uptown as well had a great time. So one of our next steps going forward, and this is 310 00:32:45,312 --> 00:32:45,312 slide 36, which is good news for everybody, but it really won't want to continue to build our 311 00:32:49,884 --> 00:32:49,884 cultural ties and relationships through business and industry brought also through our 312 00:32:54,388 --> 00:32:54,388 students and through our friendship city next year. We do have a conference in columbus, 313 00:33:00,427 --> 00:33:00,427 and we're excited about that. We have. We will be inviting mayor many dishy to visit mary, as 314 00:33:05,565 --> 00:33:05,565 well as part of that the governor of saitama prefecture as well owner song. And then 315 00:33:10,337 --> 00:33:10,337 also potential city and county sponsors were more likely going to be asked for sponsorship of 316 00:33:15,309 --> 00:33:15,309 this conference is probably the next time we host. This is going to be many years away as well. 317 00:33:20,181 --> 00:33:20,181 so this is a great opportunity to make the community shine. Next year. We'll send 10 318 00:33:24,451 --> 00:33:28,422 students to your hamachi and then division of land ministry actually visit marysville later this month to talk about japantown and what it means to this community. So those are 319 00:33:34,762 --> 00:33:34,762 kind of our next steps. They're probably many others we could list here. But these are some of 320 00:33:39,166 --> 00:33:39,166 the things will be working on over the next year as we move forward, but again, this has 321 00:33:44,304 --> 00:33:44,304 been a amazing month. You know everything I do in my daily job. I have to say this is one of the 322 00:33:51,312 --> 00:33:51,312 more rewarding. Uh and it's really a fun experience to get involved and get engaged. Again 323 00:33:56,850 --> 00:33:56,850 we appreciate all that honda does. We appreciate all the investments that japanese 324 00:34:01,022 --> 00:34:01,022 companies have made in our community? It's so important to our future cannot say that 325 00:34:05,392 --> 00:34:05,392 enough. Um you know, we, um I think 20% of the workforce here . The jobs provided here are 326 00:34:11,899 --> 00:34:11,899 provided by japanese companies. And that's something that we can never forget. And it's important 327 00:34:17,171 --> 00:34:17,171 to our future as we as we look to build these ties, another cool contact is we got a chance 328 00:34:23,144 --> 00:34:23,144 to talk with. I think the chief of staff, I think it was the chief of staff of rama. Emanuel 329 00:34:28,649 --> 00:34:28,649 we're going to be reaching out to the u. S embassy in japan and to try to build more 330 00:34:33,387 --> 00:34:36,924 relationship with other japanese companies that call and help through their office. So that's another another reach out that will be making to the u. S. Embassy. So with that I don't 331 00:34:41,762 --> 00:34:41,762 have any additions from terrier. Two things I would add. I would encourage city council members 332 00:34:49,370 --> 00:34:49,370 since it is in columbus. Maybe try to make time to go see and attend the conference. I you 333 00:34:57,479 --> 00:34:57,479 know, it's we're fortunate to be able to have it here in columbus , and we probably are going to 334 00:35:03,551 --> 00:35:03,551 be sponsoring to some level. So again, I would encourage that. Secondly I want to give a lot of 335 00:35:11,926 --> 00:35:11,926 credit to eric and his staff, the planning and the preparation that goes to putting these 336 00:35:18,833 --> 00:35:18,833 agendas together is unbelievable . How detailed it is, and, um, we even have. We're kind of. 337 00:35:30,078 --> 00:35:30,078 looked at, even among the ohio contingent kind of looks at us a lot of times and asks us how 338 00:35:36,450 --> 00:35:36,450 we're doing it. Have you know how we're handling things and no, don't reach out to eric. 339 00:35:41,088 --> 00:35:41,088 just check on exactly how our schedule is working with their schedules and things like that. 340 00:35:47,328 --> 00:35:47,328 so it's an enormous amount of work for several months to position so I want to thank eric 341 00:35:56,704 --> 00:35:56,704 because he positioned as well, uh, on visiting all the locations we visited, and hank 342 00:36:05,379 --> 00:36:05,379 burbey was awesome during this, you guys he spoke in your e and various meetings with these 343 00:36:13,521 --> 00:36:13,521 companies and really did a fantastic job. And I wanted to thank hank for the for the 344 00:36:20,494 --> 00:36:20,494 leadership he showed as we visited all these locations and these companies, and you did a 345 00:36:27,034 --> 00:36:27,034 great job, hank. Thank you. Yeah, and I definitely do an echo. Terry with he goes through 346 00:36:34,976 --> 00:36:34,976 the scheduling and all the work that they go into it because we spent about six months in 347 00:36:43,384 --> 00:36:43,384 preparation in comparison to our neighbors to the south, that all of a sudden realized that oh, 348 00:36:52,193 --> 00:36:52,193 we're going to japan, and within two weeks there the delegation together and they would have 349 00:36:56,630 --> 00:36:56,630 wanted that we're asking us but what really impresses me. So much is what level of trust that 350 00:37:04,706 --> 00:37:04,706 we three days have been able to create. Outside this has been 10 years. And if you look at the 351 00:37:12,480 --> 00:37:12,480 solution that was made 10 years ago, it was to do exchanges. It was both for students as well as 352 00:37:20,555 --> 00:37:20,555 adults. So the spirit of the agreement I mean, we followed that to a t. This was our 10 353 00:37:29,897 --> 00:37:29,897 year anniversary. And it was just from a yuri standpoint. Yeah mayor negishi the evening 354 00:37:39,474 --> 00:37:39,474 so in the morning, you do the official starts and in the evening you all have dinner 355 00:37:43,745 --> 00:37:43,745 together, and he and I was sitting at the head of the table and we became so involved with 356 00:37:49,718 --> 00:37:49,718 the help of a interpreter. Then, after an hour and 15 minutes. You know somebody tapped in his 357 00:37:56,858 --> 00:37:56,858 shoulder and said, don't forget you have other people out there because what they do differently 358 00:38:03,130 --> 00:38:03,130 than we do is that we have a city council. We have a county. They have a school. They have 359 00:38:09,737 --> 00:38:09,737 everything together. Yeah and currently they are looking to what they call decentralizing. 360 00:38:15,944 --> 00:38:15,944 so he was squeezing me. Yeah. How does your system work? Because I was system works, but 361 00:38:23,585 --> 00:38:23,585 we feel that there is a better system and we're looking at you for. How does your system in 362 00:38:28,857 --> 00:38:28,857 decentralization works? And who would have thought that those kinds of conversations would be 363 00:38:35,997 --> 00:38:35,997 part of the exchange? The other one that I found also on the list, of course, was midwest 364 00:38:42,370 --> 00:38:42,370 express. Midwest express between us and logan is 3500 employees and to get the assurance from 365 00:38:52,580 --> 00:38:52,580 them and saying that they are already now planning for 2040. Yeah, so here, this 2023. 366 00:39:02,156 --> 00:39:02,156 they're already planning for 2040 what the company will look like and what kind of work did 367 00:39:07,595 --> 00:39:07,595 they will do? And then the last but not least, it was mr ogata. And you may remember him of it. 368 00:39:14,502 --> 00:39:14,502 the more you of what he told me in osaka. Now he was actually the person that started the 369 00:39:22,544 --> 00:39:22,544 factory out here, so he was very well aware he used to live in dublin in the is that, of course 370 00:39:30,618 --> 00:39:30,618 banish was his favorite place. Yeah but we when we asked them and said, what do you anticipate 371 00:39:38,125 --> 00:39:38,125 your involvement will be with the new under factory that building together honda lg open 372 00:39:45,000 --> 00:39:45,000 independent field, and he said, it's ironic that you say that because he said. If the factory 373 00:39:50,906 --> 00:39:50,906 is going to be less than 50 people we will add to the management will. If it's more 374 00:39:57,612 --> 00:39:57,612 than 50, we will probably need to make a branch out in fairfield to make that factory 375 00:40:03,117 --> 00:40:03,117 out there. And those are the kinds of conversations where when you share that type of 376 00:40:08,256 --> 00:40:08,256 information, and you touched each other because you both want to continue to work as a 377 00:40:15,663 --> 00:40:15,663 partnership, and every place that we went to we, we at this point you mentioned it. Um have 378 00:40:22,204 --> 00:40:22,204 have been able to gain the trust . They are very impressed with the fact that we are involved 379 00:40:30,011 --> 00:40:30,011 with the student program that we do the dress suit that we are making an effort. You know, 380 00:40:36,885 --> 00:40:36,885 because again if you look at it at the end of the day 20% of our workforce in union county, wash. 381 00:40:42,724 --> 00:40:42,724 for a japanese company. Yes so we need to keep that in mind, and it just that level of touch 382 00:40:51,199 --> 00:40:51,199 that they that we have now been able over time to establish is a big plus for any future visit 383 00:40:59,974 --> 00:40:59,974 that we have. So it again. I was able to make the trip basically following jr in 2019 and learned 384 00:41:11,253 --> 00:41:11,253 from that, and I think it has helped me to amend. Honestly, too. Um to be able to talk with 385 00:41:22,464 --> 00:41:22,464 the folks out there that have their headquarters in japan and be very comfortable where we are 386 00:41:29,004 --> 00:41:29,004 and the level of service because every place that we went to we heard a lot of good things about 387 00:41:34,543 --> 00:41:34,543 union county. Yeah I would agree, and I can't echo. First of all as thank you did a great 388 00:41:41,250 --> 00:41:41,250 job. Terry did a great job and it was overall a great mission. Probably the best we've ever had 389 00:41:45,988 --> 00:41:49,391 from earlier. I think everyone is excited about getting a covid and building those relationships. But again, you've got to think about where the midwest is and where japan we 390 00:41:54,896 --> 00:41:54,896 have a lot of simulators from a from a family standpoint from a work ethic standpoint, 391 00:42:00,802 --> 00:42:00,802 responsibility standpoint, that's why you have a midwest us japan association. That's why 392 00:42:05,608 --> 00:42:05,608 why you have this conference? That's why in ohio we know how to build things we had to. Grow 393 00:42:10,345 --> 00:42:10,345 things. Those are two things we can we can never forget very similar to the japanese culture 394 00:42:15,483 --> 00:42:15,483 , and that's why we get there's a lot of things we understand about each other, and I think 395 00:42:19,721 --> 00:42:23,292 that's another thing that benefits this relationship going forward. Absolutely and I appreciate, um city council and their support of this, and I think it's again a really a 396 00:42:29,632 --> 00:42:29,632 great effort to build these relationships but again. I'm I'm happy that you allow me the 397 00:42:35,504 --> 00:42:35,504 opportunity to do this because it's very rewarding, and it's awesome to see how we build 398 00:42:39,608 --> 00:42:39,608 these relationships and partnerships. So at this point at any questions for sectarian 399 00:42:47,083 --> 00:42:47,083 me on this mission, or. Lisa the only question I would have is for nisa. So you say, ohio had 400 00:42:57,659 --> 00:42:57,659 it reached, you know, uses the library more than any than any other state, united states. So 401 00:43:02,331 --> 00:43:02,331 which state doesn't they don't use the library as much as any other state. Looks aptly. Okay 402 00:43:10,673 --> 00:43:10,673 that's alright. You don't have to hire was yeah. She made that very clear. Better news about 403 00:43:18,847 --> 00:43:18,847 that ohio is ohio goes amiss. That's good morning in japanese , ohio because I'm it's that's 404 00:43:24,352 --> 00:43:24,352 easy for us. First easy for us. We can say ohio goes hamas means good morning. There you go. Mhm. 405 00:43:30,325 --> 00:43:30,325 okay? Thank you very much. Eric. Appreciate it. Oh okay. Now we come to the, um sorry before I 406 00:43:43,105 --> 00:43:43,105 do that parks and rec commission reports. Thank you, mr president . It's going to be difficult to 407 00:43:49,178 --> 00:43:49,178 follow that presentation, which was amazing. Um the parks and rec commission met last month. 408 00:43:54,116 --> 00:43:54,116 september 19th. Relatively short meeting will go over the notes that we have from that meeting. 409 00:44:00,889 --> 00:44:00,889 so in the month of september, the pool entrance there was an eagle scout that was working on 410 00:44:06,027 --> 00:44:06,027 a project. There that has since been complete as you can stop by the entrance to the marysville 411 00:44:10,966 --> 00:44:10,966 municipal pool to check that out. Um, the pickleball court at greenwood park. That is set to 412 00:44:19,174 --> 00:44:19,174 be complete and open and spring of next year since spring 2024 you can look forward to that. 413 00:44:24,480 --> 00:44:24,480 the tennis court at louis park has a completion date of roughly the end of this month, october 414 00:44:31,486 --> 00:44:31,486 city staff last month was in the process of starting to winterize the pool for the winter months. 415 00:44:37,259 --> 00:44:37,259 um, the mainline irrigation system at the marysville police department. They are working on 416 00:44:42,364 --> 00:44:42,364 rerouting that um working on foundation prep at the cemetery for this year. Let's see the 417 00:44:50,973 --> 00:44:50,973 elder park map. So if you go to the park, they have a map of the elder park that has been 418 00:44:56,745 --> 00:44:56,745 updated. As you can see that map if you go to the park, and the city would actually like to use 419 00:45:02,117 --> 00:45:02,117 that as a model for all of our parks, so it's a nice sign. We'd like to use that same style. For 420 00:45:08,958 --> 00:45:12,795 all of our parks. It'll just take time for us to get there is a city let's see. Last month, city staff was in the process of quoting repairs to the gazebo at partners park. Started the 421 00:45:19,035 --> 00:45:19,035 fourth round of annual fertilizer last month. There's a new playground to be installed 422 00:45:24,907 --> 00:45:24,907 alders gate park this fall. And just the general note I have is the city's is maximizing our 423 00:45:33,483 --> 00:45:33,483 resources to, um, you know, with the reduced staffing, we lose a lot of employees that go back to 424 00:45:39,689 --> 00:45:39,689 school or whatnot. So we're maximizing resources with the limited staff that we do have. 425 00:45:44,426 --> 00:45:44,426 there was one agenda item, which we actually discussed lacks last week at our work session. It's 426 00:45:49,899 --> 00:45:49,899 the rate review for facility costs and city fees. Which the parks and rec board approved 427 00:45:56,505 --> 00:45:56,505 unanimously. We heard a last week at the work session. Ah, that was the only agenda item 428 00:46:02,845 --> 00:46:02,845 that we had. And then I asked amanda when we could hear christmas music uptown and she 429 00:46:07,149 --> 00:46:07,149 told me it is the week of thanksgiving is when we can expect that. So those are my 430 00:46:12,388 --> 00:46:12,388 updates. Um, let me know if you have any questions, please. Okay. Any questions for aaron? 431 00:46:18,394 --> 00:46:18,394 okay thank you very much, and now we come to the portion of hearing of citizens where 432 00:46:24,266 --> 00:46:24,266 citizens have an opportunity to talk on any item that's not part of the nature agenda and you 433 00:46:30,440 --> 00:46:30,440 have a chance to talk for up to pave minutes again on an hmm. Topic that's not part about the 434 00:46:36,278 --> 00:46:36,278 knights agenda. Hearing none. We move on to the business for the night and we have a resolution 435 00:46:46,722 --> 00:46:46,722 resolution a reading only to authorize the services that the city of marysville will provide 436 00:46:52,762 --> 00:46:52,762 . Should the plus or minus 254.804 acres located in dover in paris townships union county, 437 00:47:00,002 --> 00:47:00,002 ohio, contiguous to the city of marysville be annexed into the city and to provide for buffer 438 00:47:06,008 --> 00:47:06,008 requirements. Okay ministrations . We have positioned ourselves well, to be able to serve this 439 00:47:13,149 --> 00:47:13,149 area and the work that we've been able to do on the sewers from station there, which was a 440 00:47:19,622 --> 00:47:19,622 substantial investment will go a long way and serving this area. Jeremy kyle. Anything else to 441 00:47:24,494 --> 00:47:24,494 add. Okay okay. That's counsel have any questions for administration or and again? 442 00:47:31,768 --> 00:47:31,768 this one is, uh, just to authorized to service. This is not a inc request is it is to 443 00:47:41,745 --> 00:47:41,745 authorize should it should property owners want to be incorporated. Then we this one 444 00:47:47,950 --> 00:47:47,950 will give us give them the. Security that we will service the area. Okay and he's citizens 445 00:47:56,793 --> 00:47:56,793 that I would like to comment on this item. Mr president. I'd make a motion to pass the 446 00:48:06,302 --> 00:48:06,302 legislation. Okay, local, please , mr roush? Yes mr reems? Yes mr carpenter. Mr seymour? Yes mrs 447 00:48:14,977 --> 00:48:14,977 groat? Yes mr berger? Yes mr burbey? Yes yes. Motion passed ordinance, um, became to the 448 00:48:24,521 --> 00:48:24,521 ordinance portion of the legislation ordinance, a third reading title, only to approve 449 00:48:32,728 --> 00:48:32,728 planning commission's recommendation to amend section 11 to 1.07 suburban residential 450 00:48:38,367 --> 00:48:38,367 district lot coverage standards for single family detached, single, family attached 451 00:48:43,272 --> 00:48:43,272 community center, institutional flex and multi family building. Typology ease of the planning 452 00:48:48,111 --> 00:48:48,111 and zoning code of the codified ordinances of the city of marysville. Okay and I believe 453 00:48:53,182 --> 00:48:53,182 there is a presentation on this. Yes staff based on the comments from the last council meeting 454 00:49:00,723 --> 00:49:00,723 staff has worked hard to try to work into the suggestions the council had made, I think, are 455 00:49:07,597 --> 00:49:07,597 you going to break those down a little bit, uh, slides where we go through each amendment early? 456 00:49:14,603 --> 00:49:14,603 yeah we can talk about what those changes are. Goodness item for s r d. We have the single 457 00:49:25,114 --> 00:49:25,114 family detached was the one that was under discussion last meeting and so we are proposing 458 00:49:32,221 --> 00:49:32,221 that to be at 55. And the other ones would remain the same as the original proposal. 60 70 70 459 00:49:38,828 --> 00:49:38,828 60. Okay? Hmm and I do believe that the meeting was held with staff. Would you be able to 460 00:49:47,870 --> 00:49:47,870 elaborate and yet not so much other than to kind of recap where we were with this? My 461 00:49:54,443 --> 00:49:54,443 proposal as as it was originally as we currently have is 40% my proposal that we talked about 462 00:50:02,118 --> 00:50:02,118 last week was was raising it to 60% is quite a bit and my proposal was to move it to 50% 463 00:50:09,392 --> 00:50:09,392 meet in the middle, and I think mr reems suggested 55. And as a part of our discussion, I met 464 00:50:17,066 --> 00:50:17,066 with ashley and jeff and. And they've come back to us with the proposal of 55, okay? So that's 465 00:50:26,476 --> 00:50:26,476 going to be up to us to decide if we want to make that amendment commission's 466 00:50:30,614 --> 00:50:30,614 recommendation, okay? All right, um. Single family the next one, the 40. Single family attached. 467 00:50:42,725 --> 00:50:42,725 goes to 60. My proposal once again was 50, but I don't I don't think there was much 468 00:50:49,398 --> 00:50:49,398 alignment from this group. I still feel that way, but, um, it's presented to us tonight as 469 00:50:56,205 --> 00:50:56,205 unchanged from the recommendation. Okay? So somebody else wanted to jump on 470 00:51:05,315 --> 00:51:05,315 that that would need to be done . In amendment, mrs god, no further amendments. Just a 471 00:51:10,987 --> 00:51:10,987 question reaffirmation. There is no difference between permeable , impermeable penetrable 472 00:51:18,461 --> 00:51:18,461 impenetrable. In any of this, you have taken away. That distinction. Is that a correct 473 00:51:26,436 --> 00:51:26,436 statement? We have added in that into our definition. Um so the heartless surface whether it's 474 00:51:36,346 --> 00:51:36,346 permeable or impermeable in impervious or pervious. It would be, yeah. So essentially 475 00:51:42,085 --> 00:51:42,085 regardless. Ah! Percentage we are talking about no significant difference in how this would 476 00:51:54,064 --> 00:51:54,064 affect water storm sewer if you are putting those two things in the same basket. This is merely 477 00:52:06,843 --> 00:52:06,843 , um, something for cosmetic purposes. Is that correct? We are taking into account the 478 00:52:19,589 --> 00:52:19,589 green space within here. Um so, like you know how much green spaces is going to allow to 479 00:52:25,662 --> 00:52:25,662 assist with that storm water management over all over the city as a whole, and that is 480 00:52:32,135 --> 00:52:32,135 basically cosmetic. Which was what your email said when it was first presented. No one because 481 00:52:39,043 --> 00:52:39,043 medicaid would be helping the storm system. Through the community. That's not my 482 00:52:45,982 --> 00:52:45,982 understanding. If it's penetrable impenetrable, there's no difference between those two 483 00:52:50,453 --> 00:52:50,453 to the storm system. No, there's is completely different. Impervious the winery cannot sit 484 00:52:59,730 --> 00:52:59,730 down into the ground pervious. It can so there is a difference between the two. I understand 485 00:53:05,469 --> 00:53:05,469 the difference between pervious and impervious, okay? The point here is. There will be no 486 00:53:12,141 --> 00:53:12,141 difference. This is cosmetic, only in terms of the homeowners lot coverage. I guess I'm 487 00:53:21,151 --> 00:53:21,151 confused. Yeah, I'm. I'm sorry. I'm confused by the question. What do you mean no different 488 00:53:31,928 --> 00:53:31,928 metric, as opposed to affecting storm. Drainage if there is no difference between those two 489 00:53:38,768 --> 00:53:38,768 definitions. But there is a difference. If. If your legislation says there isn't 490 00:53:48,979 --> 00:53:48,979 then we are taking that into account into into the calculation of it. Yeah it's 491 00:53:55,318 --> 00:53:55,318 cosmetic. So thanks for answering that, okay? I mr. President I have a question, 492 00:54:04,628 --> 00:54:04,628 okay. My question only is I've had a couple of residents just reach out about this obviously, 493 00:54:09,800 --> 00:54:09,800 when something is being done, and you know, this will be through busia or city staff will 494 00:54:15,339 --> 00:54:15,339 be able to talk with the homeowner at their lot coverage maximizes what they can just 495 00:54:20,778 --> 00:54:20,778 like anything else would if they wanted to do something on their property in the city of 496 00:54:25,515 --> 00:54:25,515 marysville, is that correct? Yes they would. They would come to staff and we can have that 497 00:54:30,120 --> 00:54:30,120 discussion with what is your what are you looking to do? What is your lock coverage at now? 498 00:54:34,759 --> 00:54:34,759 what what ability is there and if we run into an issue, then we would have to discuss whether 499 00:54:39,363 --> 00:54:39,363 that that variance could be an option. Thank you guys. Okay and the other questions. So one 500 00:54:46,036 --> 00:54:46,036 question I have is, was there any thought to keeping two separate? Maximums so. 501 00:54:54,344 --> 00:54:54,344 previously it was a 40% lot coverage. With your house. But when we changed the definitions 502 00:55:04,087 --> 00:55:04,087 now we're trying to make sure that we capture sidewalks correct. Dex things like that. 503 00:55:11,629 --> 00:55:11,629 if we go to 55% and I don't I have a very small driveway. And no deck. I can still get to 55% 504 00:55:21,671 --> 00:55:21,671 coverage with just my house. Where somebody else may have a smaller house but have deck. 505 00:55:30,848 --> 00:55:30,848 wider driveway more sidewalks and still get to the 55% was there any thought to 40. For 506 00:55:38,922 --> 00:55:38,922 just the house. Like under the old definition, breaking down that calculation. Well, when we 507 00:55:47,731 --> 00:55:47,731 did these amendments, we took a look. We calculated, um, in those maps. We provided the 508 00:55:52,536 --> 00:55:52,536 council we calculated a lot of different parcels within the community to understand what 509 00:55:58,375 --> 00:55:58,375 they would be at with this new definition, so that's how we came up with the 60. But but no, 510 00:56:03,881 --> 00:56:03,881 we did not take into consideration. Having a separate number just for the house versus 511 00:56:08,819 --> 00:56:08,819 the other. That's based on the research that we had done in other communities as well that 512 00:56:14,625 --> 00:56:14,625 that wasn't separated that way. Okay simple combination of pervious and impervious cannot 513 00:56:24,101 --> 00:56:24,101 exceed 60. Repeat it again. The combination of previous and impervious not exceed, exceed 514 00:56:38,482 --> 00:56:38,482 60% yes. Yeah so when you're saying, actually, I don't think that's accurate. Because if you 515 00:56:44,087 --> 00:56:44,087 combine impervious, impervious, that's 100% of the line. The total impervious. Yeah working. 516 00:56:51,995 --> 00:56:51,995 thank you. Thank you. That's correction makes sense. But that summary of those equals the 517 00:56:56,667 --> 00:56:56,667 percentage but that the total of the parking surface, the sidewalks, the decks and the 518 00:57:05,009 --> 00:57:05,009 structures. Okay impervious cannot exceed. 60% or 55% yes, that yes. So there's a flower 519 00:57:17,956 --> 00:57:17,956 bed get included now. And actually, if it was a rock bed. It would be included, okay? Hmm 520 00:57:28,198 --> 00:57:28,198 okay, but have so how about if you have a concrete walkway to go from your garage around your 521 00:57:38,309 --> 00:57:38,309 house to your patio in the back? If india's concrete it would be counted in the 60% but if it is 522 00:57:47,117 --> 00:57:47,117 example bed how do you? How do you perceive that which does let drainage through? Is that 523 00:57:53,925 --> 00:57:53,925 considered to be part of the 60 ? Or is it that in the sixties part of that 60 still be okay, 524 00:57:59,897 --> 00:57:59,897 so yeah, it was used as mulch. If you use like the stone malt in the landscape bad that's not 525 00:58:07,304 --> 00:58:07,304 counting against it. That's not compacted. He used for a panther or perking or something like 526 00:58:12,977 --> 00:58:12,977 that. That's where it's county. Yeah. Okay? Already are we all on the same page on this? Okay 527 00:58:23,053 --> 00:58:23,053 so any more conversation, so the question is, yeah. Um initially , the original a man, sorry, the 528 00:58:36,300 --> 00:58:36,300 original. Um um ordinance was for 60. And he's going to be an amendment to reduce the single 529 00:58:48,346 --> 00:58:48,346 penalty details to 55. That motion. Okay okay. So ready and local police.

Mr president. It's 533 00:59:25,417 --> 00:59:25,417 . We're at second reading, so I think we would want to ask for public comment. Okay because 534 00:59:33,357 --> 00:59:33,357 second reading a dual publications that I didn't see that here, so, um so um, we need 535 00:59:42,066 --> 00:59:42,066 to hear citizens comments, please.

Typology ease of the planning and zoning code of the codified 566 01:04:27,086 --> 01:04:27,086 ordinances of the city of marysville over presentation. Okay? So there was 71 item on 567 01:04:33,892 --> 01:04:33,892 this one. For single family details. The way eight. Okay? So the recommendation was 80. But 568 01:04:54,446 --> 01:04:54,446 we would change the amendment is 65. Okay I assume that you made the amendment. Yeah anybody any 569 01:05:02,954 --> 01:05:02,954 questions on this? Okay to amend the proposed 80% amended to 65% black coverage. Okay so we have 570 01:05:15,267 --> 01:05:15,267 a motion to amend, correct. Go ahead. Just from like staff. Just educate me so like, give me 571 01:05:23,475 --> 01:05:23,475 a house. And say 80% to like 65. So just, um like, you know. Um like sims world that's just 572 01:05:35,253 --> 01:05:35,253 build a house and say what? What would be what 80% would look like and then dropping it down 573 01:05:41,660 --> 01:05:41,660 to a 65? If that's possible. Does that make sense to you? Yeah, we do have, um I'm sorry 574 01:05:48,833 --> 01:05:48,833 if you're okay. We have a gis map. Um. Jeff would you be able to pull that up and maybe show 575 01:05:57,842 --> 01:05:57,842 him two examples? He can walk up and show you the map. We can maybe do this kind of live if 576 01:06:04,783 --> 01:06:04,783 you give us a minute here. Single family detached in prg. Yeah sure. Councilman burger 577 01:06:24,102 --> 01:06:24,102 real quick. So if you if you look at like a 60 by 1 20 lot, okay. 80% luck coverage would be 578 01:06:33,178 --> 01:06:33,178 . 5760 square feet. Okay 60% will be 4300. Square feet, so you're looking at about 1400 579 01:06:46,791 --> 01:06:46,791 square feet of difference between 80% to 60. Is that kind of what you were looking for? 580 01:06:52,731 --> 01:06:52,731 take the example that you're talking about. You could pave over your entire backyard. And 581 01:07:00,339 --> 01:07:00,339 be it 80. Then be the 80. Yeah. Can you repeat that? 80% would just about be the equivalent of 582 01:07:09,982 --> 01:07:09,982 paving over your entire backyard. And 20 year, 20% would be pretty close to what you 583 01:07:17,823 --> 01:07:17,823 would have on the front of the sides. Yeah. Uh, on a 60 ft wide light. You're you're gonna have 584 01:07:27,933 --> 01:07:27,933 a driveway? That's 16. 25 ft minimum. That's about 5% block coverage right there, right. And 585 01:07:36,509 --> 01:07:36,509 you take the rest of your lot is 60 take the 16 out. You know? You're going to be pretty close 586 01:07:44,316 --> 01:07:44,316 to that would be the only green space you have. If you were 80% yeah, the so that was. So if I'm 587 01:07:52,758 --> 01:07:52,758 understanding this correctly, that was my concern, dropping it down to 65. Because like like, 588 01:08:00,499 --> 01:08:00,499 educate, I mean, like, I'm might be confused but educated because on west like for instance what, 589 01:08:05,504 --> 01:08:05,504 so straight you have. There are backyards that had been asphalted over. And then you 590 01:08:13,078 --> 01:08:16,882 know, there's residential homes that are beside their that complain about flooding because the when they ask for them over its raised higher and you know, so the backyards flood so that's 591 01:08:23,089 --> 01:08:23,089 why if we drop it from all the way to 65% are we solving? The intent. Of why I thought this 592 01:08:31,664 --> 01:08:31,664 was going to do. I guess that's my concern is just my question directly equivalent to what most 593 01:08:38,804 --> 01:08:38,804 lots are now. Okay when you include in the things that weren't included before. The 594 01:08:46,579 --> 01:08:46,579 sidewalks, the decks, the parking area, you know, it's just 65% is roughly equivalent 595 01:08:53,986 --> 01:08:53,986 to what it was before the definitions were changed, okay? So just some numbers that from 596 01:09:00,092 --> 01:09:00,092 the g. I s map that we did. We looked at 264 parcels that were single family detached, nb argue 597 01:09:05,631 --> 01:09:05,631 district nine parcels or above 65% currently do definition. There was one person levels 598 01:09:12,838 --> 01:09:12,838 above 80. Find parcels and 264 that are above 65, which means the majority of it is hard 599 01:09:21,947 --> 01:09:21,947 hardscape already on their lot. I mean, if I'm not obviously if the if the majority of us say 65 600 01:09:35,594 --> 01:09:35,594 is okay, and you guys met on that I'm honestly not going to question that 65% but the that I 601 01:09:41,100 --> 01:09:41,100 guess dropping at 65. That was my concern, because I don't know if no two no disrespect to what 602 01:09:47,273 --> 01:09:47,273 you're trying to do. I just don't know if 65% is actually solving the issue. And we are. 603 01:09:54,914 --> 01:09:54,914 we had a lot of data that we discussed at plants meeting went over this for we kind of settled 604 01:10:00,386 --> 01:10:00,386 on that number. Okay, well then. I guess if you everyone's burger , I think if you went lower than 605 01:10:08,328 --> 01:10:08,328 65% I think it would be very restrictive. Well proposal came to us at 80% coverage. We're 606 01:10:18,437 --> 01:10:18,437 asking to reduce that to 65% average, which allows for more greens. Green space, okay? So I 607 01:10:27,379 --> 01:10:27,379 apologize. That is that I had the numbers flipped. So my apologies for that one. So thank 608 01:10:33,619 --> 01:10:33,619 you for thank you for listening to me, but also wasting everyone's time tonight. Thank 609 01:10:38,024 --> 01:10:38,024 you. Already.

Hmm and I don't think that we have any amendments on this so we could 623 01:12:32,939 --> 01:12:32,939 move forward with the motion to pester legislation. So moved. Okay we have motion local place 624 01:12:41,580 --> 01:12:41,580 . No mr berger, mister burbey. Yes yes, mr reems. Mr carpenter ? Yes mr seymour? Six? Yes.

So the amendment on this 631 01:13:38,938 --> 01:13:38,938 would be for single family attached. Um and it would be going from the 70% to 60% as the 632 01:13:47,513 --> 01:13:47,513 amendment 60, okay? The others would remain at 70 70, then 80. The other ones are being mixed 633 01:13:57,323 --> 01:13:57,323 use multi permanently and office. Yeah so it's only the single family attached.

I do have 663 01:18:01,835 --> 01:18:01,835 something to pull up again. 664 01:18:20,087 --> 01:18:20,087 been in discussions, um, staff and as well as our zoning. Originally we were proposing to 665 01:18:31,299 --> 01:18:31,299 remove the requirement for, uh, section to let her be there for the roof not handle shall not be 666 01:18:39,140 --> 01:18:39,140 installed on the front. Roof pitch. And last time we talked about maybe taking different 667 01:18:44,745 --> 01:18:44,745 considerations for uptown is well village residential district. So what we also did 668 01:18:51,251 --> 01:18:51,251 over the last few weeks. It took a look at what the total quantity solar permits that we 669 01:18:56,957 --> 01:18:56,957 had in the city. Um we have had 45, which is on the side or the rear and then 20 additional went 670 01:19:05,266 --> 01:19:05,266 too easy. A for variance request forward on the front room pitch. Only three of those were found 671 01:19:13,807 --> 01:19:13,807 either doing the uptown districts and one in village residential. So overall we've 672 01:19:18,346 --> 01:19:18,346 had 65 permits. I've seen first solar requests. So we during our discussions, we have proposed 673 01:19:28,356 --> 01:19:28,356 two options for to revise you. If we decide we don't want to go with this where we're completely 674 01:19:35,329 --> 01:19:35,329 removing that required it. Into options that we've been either. Continue with the issue of the 675 01:19:43,671 --> 01:19:43,671 theory in but we would, um limit that to the village residential three uptown districts, and that 676 01:19:50,778 --> 01:19:50,778 should only be considered if the roof configuration does not permit the solar to be installed 677 01:19:56,783 --> 01:19:56,783 on the side or that we are second option that we could permit it in all districts, 678 01:20:04,292 --> 01:20:04,292 except for b r p and then the three uptown district so they would be prohibited presidential 679 01:20:10,231 --> 01:20:10,231 of town commercial single family and uptown transitional districts. And that would be 680 01:20:18,472 --> 01:20:18,472 strictly for that front pitch facade would apply. Like option to better wherever not putting 681 01:20:26,747 --> 01:20:26,747 them on the front. Until technology catches up and it looks like a roof. But I kind of 682 01:20:36,156 --> 01:20:36,156 feel like maybe there should be an option. Three. Which is roof mounted solar panels prohibited 683 01:20:41,562 --> 01:20:41,562 on the front pitch facade. Period. An application for a variance should not be granted. 684 01:20:51,605 --> 01:20:51,605 all districts. I mean, if we care about what the uptown looks like, why wouldn't we care about 685 01:20:57,544 --> 01:20:57,544 what other parts of town look like? Right now that we do restrict that from all districts 686 01:21:03,884 --> 01:21:03,884 on the front roof edge. They should have been that various yeah, I know. I know some h o s 687 01:21:11,725 --> 01:21:11,725 have their own rules, and there's some changes that may be coming there in terms of what 688 01:21:18,599 --> 01:21:18,599 they can and can't do ages, um, that they can't restrict that they can't make unreasonable 689 01:21:24,605 --> 01:21:24,605 restrictions right so they may be able to keep a restriction on front facing because that might 690 01:21:29,877 --> 01:21:29,877 not be considered unreasonable. We don't know yet. Mr president. Um with regard to your data. Or 691 01:21:41,989 --> 01:21:41,989 maybe I should say your most recent agenda for easy a, I think. What's what's on that 692 01:21:52,500 --> 01:21:52,500 agenda. I think there's some yeah, yeah. Next monday at rbc a meeting will have eight 693 01:21:59,340 --> 01:21:59,340 applications to install solar panels on the front facing roof. And most of those were in mill 694 01:22:05,446 --> 01:22:05,446 valley. Is that correct valley chestnut crossing dana point? Okay. They're all srd districts 695 01:22:13,887 --> 01:22:13,887 or p u d over the last six months. Um tell me a little bit about how that's trending. Ah 696 01:22:24,232 --> 01:22:24,232 solar panels in general are trending. We've seen an uptick in applications. Um there have 697 01:22:29,937 --> 01:22:29,937 not been any requests that have been denied. By the board. With those that have not been denied 698 01:22:38,479 --> 01:22:38,479 , or mostly, not from roof pitch requests. A variance if it's on the rear. That's true. That's 699 01:22:45,086 --> 01:22:45,086 true. Thank you. We've heard from some of the professionals in the industry that thank 700 01:22:50,492 --> 01:22:50,492 marysville might be the only community in central ohio that requires a variance or having 701 01:22:54,896 --> 01:22:54,896 them on the front. It's been there's definitely there's definitely a lot more projects 702 01:23:03,003 --> 01:23:03,003 being done, um in town, and I think we're just going to see more and more requests. Just 703 01:23:08,343 --> 01:23:08,343 because the way some houses are rented. It's not feasible to put them on the back because they're 704 01:23:13,147 --> 01:23:13,147 not going to get exposure to the sun if it's facing north. It's not gonna be worth the 705 01:23:17,552 --> 01:23:21,255 investment for that homeowner. They're not going to recoup that, if it unless it's on the front just just to talk about the topic just a bit. You know, the I think about um. Van kirk 706 01:23:33,034 --> 01:23:33,034 drive and hickory drive. And the old. Sections of marysville, which were once the elite of the 707 01:23:41,208 --> 01:23:41,208 community. And those are fifties and sixties style architecture. With lower pitched roofs. And 708 01:23:48,716 --> 01:23:48,716 the roof. Equals. I don't know. 1 30% of the styling of the house. Mhm. And to take away 709 01:24:00,928 --> 01:24:00,928 from that. Historical architecture, even though it's not in the historical district, 710 01:24:06,968 --> 01:24:06,968 but it's in village residential. Some of it is uh um, it seems unfortunate. And, of course, uh, 711 01:24:15,010 --> 01:24:15,010 the owner. Once. Uh, solar. Maybe at the disadvantage right now are at the disadvantage 712 01:24:27,588 --> 01:24:27,588 right now. If the if the preferred side for solar is on the front of the house. And I 713 01:24:34,362 --> 01:24:34,362 just have a real problem. Of something so none architecturally contributing. 714 01:24:42,104 --> 01:24:42,104 mhm to be on those roof pitches. Particularly in the uptown historical areas. But in 715 01:24:48,576 --> 01:24:48,576 addition. Are those fifties and sixties styles home that truly make a statement of their 716 01:24:56,751 --> 01:24:56,751 period. It would be distracting. Two story homes. You know it. You don't have the same visual. 717 01:25:05,994 --> 01:25:05,994 as you're driving by. So it's a tough one. It's difficult from when you're talking about period 718 01:25:15,002 --> 01:25:15,002 homes and how distracting these could be, too. Do their curbside architecture. Just yes, ma'am. 719 01:25:26,381 --> 01:25:26,381 question to ask planning commission and staff. What part of our uptown are actually not 720 01:25:36,224 --> 01:25:36,224 flat roof is that significant? That that is a slant or I'm I'm thinking. Most of the time when 721 01:25:47,335 --> 01:25:47,335 I looked that way, I'm seeing flat tops is that not accurate? Are you speaking to the 722 01:25:55,476 --> 01:25:55,476 residential or to the commercial commercial uptown? I mean, if we're protecting historical 723 01:26:02,851 --> 01:26:02,851 would be focused on more of the protection of the residential. Um, so that that that pitch of 724 01:26:07,555 --> 01:26:07,555 the residential so you're back to alan's point. Um I'm sorry. What did you say back to allen's 725 01:26:16,965 --> 01:26:16,965 point, as opposed to? I'm thinking of historic uptown. Yeah and minister of the flat 726 01:26:22,971 --> 01:26:22,971 roofs don't really meet that definition of being a front facing route right? Right so 727 01:26:27,875 --> 01:26:27,875 they wouldn't apply to the correct. Okay. Thank you. Could you mr president, can you please 728 01:26:35,084 --> 01:26:35,084 go back to the two options slide just so I can. So let me let me back up one. So right now we do 729 01:26:44,726 --> 01:26:44,726 so this area that's outlined in the red here that air that is what we currently have that 730 01:26:50,098 --> 01:26:50,098 restricts it throughout the entire community on that front, the front pitch. We are 731 01:26:55,303 --> 01:26:55,303 proposing two options to modify that to either, um, only restricted within village 732 01:27:01,910 --> 01:27:01,910 residential uptown commercial uptown single family in uptown transitional unless you get the 733 01:27:08,983 --> 01:27:08,983 variants with the requirement that you know you can only obtain that very variants of 734 01:27:15,390 --> 01:27:15,390 your roof configuration does not permitted on the side or the rear. Or option two that it is, 735 01:27:21,763 --> 01:27:21,763 um, completely prohibited on the front pitch of the roof within v r. D uptown commercial in uptown 736 01:27:29,004 --> 01:27:29,004 single family in uptown transitional. Option one. There is basically saying we're going 737 01:27:41,450 --> 01:27:41,450 to allow it because they're not going to come and ask for it unless they're front pitches on 738 01:27:46,855 --> 01:27:46,855 the sound. They're not going to ask for it if their front pitches facing north. Yes so we 739 01:27:51,093 --> 01:27:51,093 would we would allow it, um, south facing front. Yeah. So I don't really like options. Oh, 740 01:28:00,836 --> 01:28:00,836 it would still be it. It wouldn't matter which direction you are facing. As long as the 741 01:28:05,974 --> 01:28:09,944 front of your roof, you still wouldn't be permitted. Whether you're facing north or south variance. Yeah. And the only reason somebody would come and ask for a variance is if they've 742 01:28:16,251 --> 01:28:16,251 got a south facing home and our history shows that we haven't turned away a single one of 743 01:28:24,626 --> 01:28:24,626 those so option one. I mean, it allows it. For everyone. Except those facing north. Yeah I see 744 01:28:34,870 --> 01:28:34,870 what you're saying, um, it could be, um, you know if the rear facing roof flying is 745 01:28:41,877 --> 01:28:41,877 constructed in a way that doesn't allow you put solar panels on it that has a lot of 746 01:28:46,415 --> 01:28:46,415 different um, angles or bound, you know, valleys vessel accounts there anyway, so that 747 01:28:52,287 --> 01:28:52,287 would be like a hardship that they physically can't put it anywhere on the house except the 748 01:28:56,525 --> 01:28:56,525 front because at the front of the only spot that has a flat roof or flat surface okay. Just 749 01:29:03,465 --> 01:29:03,465 question. How can we do this? Um we turn one option down. I mean, now we're being presented with 750 01:29:11,840 --> 01:29:11,840 basically. Yes and a now and up and down. Tell me, tim. What suggested amendments right with 751 01:29:20,148 --> 01:29:20,148 ashley planning staff. We considered what? The council's comments two options. Can 752 01:29:27,489 --> 01:29:27,489 consider need to take. Discussion and decide whether. So somebody recommends one 753 01:29:43,572 --> 01:29:43,572 option as the amendment. And we either vote that up or down. Six votes. So I think that nothing 754 01:29:55,717 --> 01:29:59,588 says you have to choose. One of these two options have been working. Any suggestions? These were just give me just drafted these based on the comments. Thank you. Well I'm gonna 755 01:30:10,666 --> 01:30:10,666 proposal an amendment and if we don't like it and maple. Try again. My suggestion is a 756 01:30:16,985 --> 01:30:16,985 variation of option two. To read . Roof mounted solar panels are prohibited on the front facade. 757 01:30:24,993 --> 01:30:24,993 period an application for a variance show must be granted. Okay? Christmas then includes 758 01:30:35,503 --> 01:30:35,503 like the parts of town that that alan talked about it. Talks includes everything correct. So 759 01:30:42,810 --> 01:30:42,810 it's clear. Discussion. Hey, any discussion on that one? We need to see a map of village 760 01:30:53,989 --> 01:30:53,989 residential are we clear on the areas that he's saying every every time hearing that saying 761 01:31:00,763 --> 01:31:00,763 every district and you know, I understand what alan was saying with the architecture of houses, 762 01:31:07,535 --> 01:31:07,535 etcetera. But I'm a private property person. And when I buy my house I want to be able to do 763 01:31:20,649 --> 01:31:20,649 to my house. What I want within reason. And this isn't a god awful, bright yellow neon sign 764 01:31:28,323 --> 01:31:28,323 that's blinking. And if I want to be able to put solar panels on my house, which I wouldn't do 765 01:31:38,232 --> 01:31:38,232 . I don't think I don't think economically. It works to spend $35,000 to do it. But mm hmm. 766 01:31:44,739 --> 01:31:44,739 why should I not be able to do it? To my house. Just f y. They're currently prohibited. 767 01:31:53,915 --> 01:31:53,915 no, no, no, they're not. Well yeah, they are on the front. They're not on the back, but 768 01:31:59,087 --> 01:31:59,087 yes, I know. Mr burbey. I just meant iru just voted that very thing on lock coverage. You mean 769 01:32:09,831 --> 01:32:09,831 do the duty amendment. And any of them, but we still are waiting for any with somebody to 770 01:32:16,705 --> 01:32:16,705 make in amendment at this point , or we go with the original. Didn't put that on mark. Mark 771 01:32:24,612 --> 01:32:24,612 did okay. He made a motion to amend it many, many prohibition on the front facility. So that's 772 01:32:32,153 --> 01:32:32,153 on the tape. So then I say, let's pass the amendment, then that market already already made 773 01:32:36,758 --> 01:32:36,758 the motion, so it's discussion right now. Discussion. Yes, thank you. Um. Mr president. My 774 01:32:45,234 --> 01:32:45,234 preferences option too. Because I'm partial to historical architecture. Okay and 775 01:32:52,740 --> 01:32:52,740 preserving. That front appearance more extinct. We we okay, so we have two of them, so 776 01:33:02,751 --> 01:33:02,751 we have to finish the one. Well, I would call marks question, okay? Called for the question. 777 01:33:09,190 --> 01:33:09,190 local place, mr seymour. No mrs growth? Yes mr berger. Mister burbey, mr roush. Mr reems? Yes 778 01:33:21,570 --> 01:33:21,570 mr carpenter. Three yes. Six foreign amendments, so they know okay? But now we're back to 779 01:33:31,580 --> 01:33:31,580 options one and two up there. Yeah is that your suggestion? Mark took a stab at it and 780 01:33:37,620 --> 01:33:37,620 failed. So okay, let's go with option two. That emotion. Option three didn't fly. Move option to 781 01:33:47,062 --> 01:33:47,062 you. Okay I think that's motion, mr president. It is a motion for that. Yep. Okay local, please, 782 01:33:57,105 --> 01:33:57,105 mrs groat? Yes mr berger. Mister burbey, mr roush. Where's village? Residential? Yeah. 783 01:34:10,419 --> 01:34:10,419 can't do that. Be like around hickory area. Thank inn and surrounding the uptown district 784 01:34:23,098 --> 01:34:23,098 park edition as well important, though. Yeah. I mean, I get uptown and uptown single and 785 01:34:29,605 --> 01:34:29,605 uptown. I just residential takes a different need to see. Yeah, I mean, where? Where exactly is 786 01:34:35,711 --> 01:34:35,711 village map? I believe that we could pull up here previous meetings. Is that the first 787 01:34:46,922 --> 01:34:46,922 council first reading the second reading? We can you want to take? We can walk up the r 788 01:34:52,628 --> 01:34:52,628 laptop to show you if you need for that user. Okay? While they're pulling that up, palin 789 01:35:03,372 --> 01:35:06,642 option two is essentially what you were saying. Your preferences is that correct? Mhm. The outline of purple is presidential. Sorry blue outline is uptown districts. Than the 790 01:35:19,287 --> 01:35:19,287 purple outline liner residential district that's basically hurts old marysville. Okay? Okay good. 791 01:35:34,136 --> 01:35:34,136 back to me, miss mackenzie got it up too late. Okay, thank you, mackenzie. Just be nice. In the 792 01:35:53,589 --> 01:35:53,589 butt. Okay? Honey continue to call for the question. No no. Mr reems. Mr carpenter? Yes, mr 793 01:36:06,668 --> 01:36:06,668 seymour. Six yes. Six about that . Yes, things if I could just make you know. One comment, um 794 01:36:19,114 --> 01:36:19,114 what is so unique about hickory bar haven, and especially the west side of town. There's a lot 795 01:36:29,391 --> 01:36:29,391 of older trees and that's what really makes those areas so unique, so it's really easy to 796 01:36:36,966 --> 01:36:36,966 put solar panels on your home if you live in a newer housing development where you don't have 797 01:36:41,170 --> 01:36:41,170 as many trees and the trees are a lot smaller you know, I understand that people want 798 01:36:46,809 --> 01:36:46,809 solar panels on their homes because they can you know by the power companies can buy back the 799 01:36:53,115 --> 01:36:53,115 energy and those kind of things. But I have seen where, um, cases where solar panels have been put 800 01:37:00,389 --> 01:37:00,389 on houses and they have actually removed their large trees in their yards to put solar panels 801 01:37:05,028 --> 01:37:05,028 on. And I just hope that you know we don't have codes currently to protect odor trees 802 01:37:12,468 --> 01:37:12,468 in the city of marysville, which to us that might sound outlandish, but to a lot of 803 01:37:17,239 --> 01:37:17,239 communities ancestral ohio atlanta, georgia, you know all these other cities they actually 804 01:37:21,644 --> 01:37:21,644 do protect larger trees in their cities. What I hope not to see is that if we really wanted to 805 01:37:27,817 --> 01:37:31,720 protect the environment or whatever the stipulations are, we would plant more trees. But that's my only you know, hope in the future is that a lot of those big oaks and stuff that we 806 01:37:36,859 --> 01:37:36,859 see on west aid their seventh or sex where the oyster came through and missed those? 807 01:37:42,064 --> 01:37:45,934 they're not or the bar haven neighborhood? I mean, there's houses would be totally different if those big white oaks were gone. So anyway, that's just my only statement. 808 01:37:51,874 --> 01:37:51,874 okay so at this point, the ordinance I is, um in second reading. Um any comments from 809 01:38:00,883 --> 01:38:00,883 citizens? Cathy young. Happy young for 25 west eighth street district. There are many two 810 01:38:13,963 --> 01:38:13,963 story houses in my district. There are some trees are trees are getting to the point where 811 01:38:18,901 --> 01:38:18,901 they are going to have to be removed. My neighbor had to remove a tree. Just a year or 812 01:38:24,473 --> 01:38:24,473 two ago because it was going through my sump pump. It's they're destroying foundations. 813 01:38:28,845 --> 01:38:28,845 mm. So if you want that neighborhood to fall down, you know, and I know this is a solar 814 01:38:35,984 --> 01:38:35,984 panel issue, but it's not all about trees, either. If you want the houses to fall down, let 815 01:38:41,290 --> 01:38:41,290 those trees stay my garage floor. Different heights about four inches. So I don't think 816 01:38:45,962 --> 01:38:45,962 you should narrow v r d districts. Because we were built in the fifties. There are two 817 01:38:53,236 --> 01:38:53,236 story homes over there that could use the solar panels and just for the record, I'm against 818 01:38:57,306 --> 01:38:57,306 solar panels. You know, besides the tax credit, I don't see the value and I'm just like jr. But 819 01:39:03,746 --> 01:39:03,746 I don't think you should. You know if somebody wants to put solar panels and let them put 820 01:39:08,083 --> 01:39:08,083 solar panels in okay? Ready. Any other comments? Okay mr president. At what? Make 821 01:39:17,560 --> 01:39:17,560 emotional wave third reading motion to waive third reading local, please, mr berger? Yes, 822 01:39:24,733 --> 01:39:24,733 mr burbey? Yes ouch! Yes mr reems. Mr. Carpenter mr seymour . Mrs group? Yes now we need 823 01:39:33,676 --> 01:39:33,676 emotion to best of legislation. Okay, mr rings. Local please, mr burbey. Mr reems. Mr carpenter? 824 01:39:47,656 --> 01:39:47,656 yes, mr seymour. Mrs group? Yes mr berger? Yes six. Yes motion passed. Okay that's one good 825 01:39:56,799 --> 01:39:56,799 evening, or ordinance j reading title only to amend section for pay policy section five benefits 826 01:40:05,007 --> 01:40:05,007 , policies and policy. C 6 26 credit cards of the city of marysville policy manual. Okay? 827 01:40:12,882 --> 01:40:12,882 already this section, you'll find it starting on peach 1 40. And finishing up on peach 1 91 828 01:40:20,957 --> 01:40:20,957 51 pages. Okay yeah, there are a lot of good things centered, really a lot of good things that 829 01:40:29,131 --> 01:40:29,131 , um the city and especially city employees will benefit from however you allowed us to 830 01:40:36,673 --> 01:40:36,673 postpone it to date certain, which is 10 9 in the hopes that we would come to a agreement on 831 01:40:44,948 --> 01:40:44,948 two of the many items, okay? Both items you know, which is policy 400 regarding 27 pay 832 01:40:55,525 --> 01:40:55,525 periods as well as policy paper , 100 bits is in regards to holidays. Um personally, I spent 833 01:41:05,001 --> 01:41:05,001 maybe about six hours with h I directly. Since we couldn't come to a agreement. We then extended 834 01:41:17,380 --> 01:41:17,380 to a meeting with administration . Mr emery, mr austin ear bread was available. Um I think there 835 01:41:26,356 --> 01:41:26,356 was 1/4 brain was available. And then mr ames and I and we started at about 3 30 last 836 01:41:34,697 --> 01:41:34,697 thursday and about six o'clock we still did not have a agreement on it. Okay so both 837 01:41:44,007 --> 01:41:44,007 topics in my opinion are very sensitive to our employees, both the ones that are exempt and 838 01:41:52,748 --> 01:41:52,748 nonexempt. They are very sensitive to the image in the community. And they are also 839 01:42:00,390 --> 01:42:00,390 pay. Very sensitive to the people that put us here. The taxpayers. Okay, so since we 840 01:42:11,568 --> 01:42:11,568 have some time available on these two particular items out of all the other ones and again 841 01:42:17,540 --> 01:42:17,540 , all the other ones. At this point, we would like to see those being moved forward 842 01:42:22,512 --> 01:42:22,512 because they will benefit the city and its employees. It stays through that the first one if I 843 01:42:32,021 --> 01:42:32,021 take that up would be, um um, he got into holidays. Yeah that does not come into play until 844 01:42:40,496 --> 01:42:40,496 mid year of next year. Okay so we have time for that particular one. The audubon does not really 845 01:42:50,306 --> 01:42:50,306 come into play until 2027. Okay the reason that it was brought forward is so that we had moving 846 01:42:59,616 --> 01:42:59,616 forward to 2027 at a policy in place today. Unfortunately we don't have a policy in place. 847 01:43:08,091 --> 01:43:08,091 and it would not be a wise decision devoted in so at this point, um, absolutely, um, 848 01:43:17,434 --> 01:43:17,434 conferring with administration be appeal that we can take the two items out and then we can 849 01:43:24,975 --> 01:43:24,975 still pass the other ones. Then we can wait until the first of the year and then pick those two 850 01:43:31,181 --> 01:43:31,181 up. Let him go through the process, perhaps go to the finance committee that the 851 01:43:37,921 --> 01:43:37,921 finance committee pat it and then after the finance committee has had a chance to take a look 852 01:43:43,993 --> 01:43:43,993 at it, then bring those two mexican to counsel for the council vote. So that's where we 853 01:43:50,601 --> 01:43:50,601 stand with those two items on this particular legislation at this point. Did you have 854 01:44:00,043 --> 01:44:00,043 anything to add? Yeah do. I totally agree on policy 400 regarding the 27 pay period 855 01:44:09,452 --> 01:44:09,452 that's not going to incur until 2027 that that is. I totally agree with that, um amending it 856 01:44:19,863 --> 01:44:19,863 and revisiting that maybe closer to that point in time, the other one, the regarding the holidays. 857 01:44:27,204 --> 01:44:27,204 I would like to. I think it's important that we act and. And I have reasons as to why I think 858 01:44:35,913 --> 01:44:35,913 we should act. But already, but that's up to city council. If you choose not to. There's I 859 01:44:44,488 --> 01:44:44,488 mean, obviously, there's a lot of discussion on that topic. Um hey, mel. On the on the holiday 860 01:44:52,596 --> 01:44:52,596 , okay. Topic. And you know if we wanted to look at doing it next year, and in postpone that 861 01:45:00,203 --> 01:45:00,203 decision, it's going to mean that we'd have to look at the budgetary impact and, you know, 862 01:45:07,878 --> 01:45:07,878 readjust our budget. You know, here and a few months. It's like we're already going through the 863 01:45:13,184 --> 01:45:13,184 budget process. You know, I think we should just make the decision on the holiday. One 864 01:45:19,223 --> 01:45:19,223 policy 500. I'm in favor of adding it. You know, we've had a couple of years to playing for 865 01:45:27,998 --> 01:45:27,998 it. It's not like when the federal government declared the extra holiday. The state. The 866 01:45:34,772 --> 01:45:34,772 state made that decision that day because I got a call at 8 30 at night that I had to call on 867 01:45:43,814 --> 01:45:43,814 my employees to make sure they knew not to come in the next day , so at least we've had time to 868 01:45:50,154 --> 01:45:50,154 prepare for it. We can budget for it. Um, I think keeping. Ah . The proposed language and 869 01:45:58,996 --> 01:45:58,996 policy. 500 makes sense for now for, you know, I think it's the right time to do it. I think 870 01:46:05,035 --> 01:46:05,035 it's the right thing to do. And you know the timing is good in terms of it's in, you know, it 871 01:46:11,375 --> 01:46:11,375 can be in our budget, so okay, so that would be mark's comments . Okay my vision and this is a 872 01:46:19,416 --> 01:46:19,416 little bit different. Yeah currently have 11 holidays. Okay and I think it's kind of a 873 01:46:28,792 --> 01:46:28,792 ironic that we bring this up today, which is a federal law today. And here we are working 874 01:46:36,666 --> 01:46:36,666 in today's columbus day. Today's indigenous day. Yeah, but we're here working a technical oil. I 875 01:46:45,876 --> 01:46:45,876 tried to pick up my mail this morning, but they're not working . Yeah so I do go to the bank, 876 01:46:52,949 --> 01:46:52,949 but they're not working. But we're working. So it's a choice . Yeah it's a choice that we 877 01:46:57,955 --> 01:46:57,955 have. Yeah whether or not we want to have a holiday, and on what day we do have that holiday 878 01:47:06,363 --> 01:47:06,363 if I compare the number of the holidays that we do you know the federal holiday. The federal 879 01:47:14,638 --> 01:47:14,638 government doesn't do it. And oh, by the way, we have 11 holidays currently. The federal 880 01:47:22,480 --> 01:47:22,480 government. Has your life been holidays and the state has 11 holidays. That's what we 881 01:47:28,386 --> 01:47:28,386 currently have. So we're following the state on that one. We did do a paul yeah, 882 01:47:36,493 --> 01:47:36,493 surrounding communities and I think we came in at about 11.3 11.4 of all the communities of 883 01:47:46,437 --> 01:47:46,437 the number of holidays. Yeah and the has to be some stuff since to decide on a extra holidays 884 01:47:56,313 --> 01:47:56,313 because the holiday and it's it was explained that it would maybe be in the neighborhood of 885 01:48:06,356 --> 01:48:06,356 about $39,000 and I said the neighborhood, so it wasn't about that amount of money that it 886 01:48:13,931 --> 01:48:13,931 would cost us and over time. But that does not. That's only in state money that is not in 887 01:48:22,874 --> 01:48:22,874 pensions. That is not in all time. But most of all, that is in last there's not taken in 888 01:48:30,314 --> 01:48:30,314 consideration the last hours that people are not at the workplace. Yeah. That has a 889 01:48:38,655 --> 01:48:38,655 substantial amount of value to its. Yeah, that somebody will take the holiday because 890 01:48:45,129 --> 01:48:45,129 basically, city hall is closed, so they have to take the holiday , but it just makes it so the 891 01:48:55,873 --> 01:48:55,873 extra holiday would be the june teens. Yeah which is the celebration of the black 892 01:49:03,848 --> 01:49:03,848 community of the day of independence. Yeah. Currently we have new year's day that 893 01:49:11,723 --> 01:49:11,723 everybody celebrates, and then we have martin luther king, which is a black holiday. Yeah 894 01:49:19,330 --> 01:49:19,330 then we go on to many of the other ones, so ohio. Yeah I was a free state. When um all of 895 01:49:32,109 --> 01:49:32,109 this was taking place that can 1800 yeah, there was a line drawn between high your 896 01:49:38,683 --> 01:49:38,683 neighbor. West and north of the ohio. And we will appreciate and we didn't treat in. Um in slaves 897 01:49:50,995 --> 01:49:50,995 . He didn't do that out here and so substantively we're looking at what is the reason that we do 898 01:49:58,870 --> 01:49:58,870 it? There is a tremendous amount of pressure to continue to do it, you know, and I have no 899 01:50:05,910 --> 01:50:05,910 doubt that after this meeting today, there are going to be phone calls. And they're going 900 01:50:10,982 --> 01:50:10,982 to say why did maybe president burbey in this case because I speak against it, or depending 901 01:50:19,323 --> 01:50:19,323 on the way that you want to vote today? Yeah we have always taken the, um the approach. What is 902 01:50:30,468 --> 01:50:30,468 best for our employees? Yeah and we're doing that in several instances. Yeah but baby c b 903 01:50:37,909 --> 01:50:37,909 give up good friday. You know, which is religious holiday. It's not a pedal holiday, but it fits 904 01:50:44,748 --> 01:50:44,748 in well with our employees, you know, so we don't celebrate columbus day, but most likely 905 01:50:52,890 --> 01:50:52,890 that one was traded in for maybe good friday because then we have friday said today, sunday off 906 01:50:59,531 --> 01:50:59,531 which is a good day, maybe eventually we can do this. Yeah maybe eventually june, things 907 01:51:06,204 --> 01:51:06,204 will go on. Me or us. However I would want to call it and we have other days that the friday 908 01:51:17,015 --> 01:51:17,015 after thanksgiving. Yeah he's a they that we have asked, which is not a federal there, so we 909 01:51:25,089 --> 01:51:25,089 are now making a decision on a floating or sorry on the holiday that could fall on different 910 01:51:30,228 --> 01:51:30,228 dates, you know? Without even checking with employees. How would you want to do this 911 01:51:37,469 --> 01:51:37,469 holiday? So the point is that I am making here is that one b would make a decision on a 912 01:51:47,011 --> 01:51:47,011 holiday that we then that would be like christmas that would be like new year's eve new year's 913 01:51:52,584 --> 01:51:52,584 day that would fall on any day of the week without first touching base with employees. We 914 01:52:01,993 --> 01:52:01,993 would increase our holidays from 11 to 12, which puts us far ahead of federal and state and 915 01:52:12,036 --> 01:52:12,036 puts his way about everybody else. And I feel we can wait a little while. Yeah to mark's 916 01:52:20,245 --> 01:52:20,245 point of saying well, we would have to adjust the budget well, the 26th of september we had 5 917 01:52:28,353 --> 01:52:28,353 $600,000 worth of adjustment. So adjustments are easy that that to me is not an argument. If we 918 01:52:36,794 --> 01:52:36,794 do this the proper way. The first of the year make it available to the finance 919 01:52:43,368 --> 01:52:43,368 committee will most likely be coming to council with that recommendation. Whatever that 920 01:52:51,575 --> 01:52:51,575 recommendation is, and then by the first of april, we have this one in place. There. We have 921 01:52:59,484 --> 01:52:59,484 equal may to make the funds available. Put it ology. So the financial part I don't think 922 01:53:07,258 --> 01:53:07,258 it's important. It is and to mr remedies, um, concern that he has saying that. Well, what if I 923 01:53:17,869 --> 01:53:17,869 get a phone call? The phone call could be if I were to get it is that council was not ready to 924 01:53:25,042 --> 01:53:25,042 make a decision yet. Council months of first work with employees and if they do decide 925 01:53:32,950 --> 01:53:32,950 to take it to take it in place of another one, or do we want to decide to add a 12 holiday to 926 01:53:39,291 --> 01:53:39,291 our employees schedule? Those are all the different parts that I have a hard time. Um uh, going 927 01:53:50,368 --> 01:53:50,368 with the recommendation of 12 holidays. Um I was just going to agree with most of what you 928 01:53:59,177 --> 01:53:59,177 said. Basically. Do we have to so are you saying hank that we don't actually have to do 929 01:54:06,284 --> 01:54:09,754 anything tonight? With this ordinance? We can wait until next year. Is that what you're saying? That is? That is that is what I'm saying. Yes. Not with the entire ordinance. Just no, 930 01:54:17,262 --> 01:54:17,262 no, no, no just suggesting parts of motion to amend be made to remove one or both of these 931 01:54:24,168 --> 01:54:24,168 sections from the audit before council. I think we should do that. You know, I guess you 932 01:54:32,510 --> 01:54:32,510 talked about the finance committee looking at this beginning of the year. But we 933 01:54:37,749 --> 01:54:37,749 all know that the beginning of the year is the time when we know the least amount our 934 01:54:45,023 --> 01:54:45,023 finances. Correct we haven't even gotten april returns yet. You know, we don't really know. 935 01:54:54,065 --> 01:54:54,065 have a great idea how we're doing until june, you know, feel comfortable. Yep so I know 936 01:55:03,542 --> 01:55:03,542 you're saying it's easy to adjust, but the first half of years not so easy to adjust. But 937 01:55:12,017 --> 01:55:12,017 but they at the end of the day, he even with the immediate expense that we have for all the 938 01:55:20,258 --> 01:55:20,258 time for a large number of people that have to work on that particular day, it's still going 939 01:55:26,765 --> 01:55:26,765 to cost the taxpayers the considerable amount. Yeah, I have several things to give me 940 01:55:35,941 --> 01:55:35,941 the amount and unfortunately, it was not available to me or not. It was not made available to me 941 01:55:42,848 --> 01:55:42,848 , but we do know that the people that are not working at that particular day, they still get 942 01:55:48,653 --> 01:55:48,653 paid. So it's still an expense to the taxpayers. It's easy enough to say yeah, but they 943 01:55:55,227 --> 01:55:55,227 still get paid. But then what did they do with the other days ? You know to me? That's not an 944 01:55:59,798 --> 01:55:59,798 argument. Just say you can easily do that because we already paid the employees then. 945 01:56:06,104 --> 01:56:06,104 well if it's that that you can give me 100 day every day because they're here anyway, so 946 01:56:11,143 --> 01:56:11,143 then it doesn't mean anything. So um, no. A unfortunately, don't see that as a as a as a 947 01:56:20,685 --> 01:56:20,685 point. And I'll chime in here too. You know the days you mentioned and I know that I'm 948 01:56:28,493 --> 01:56:28,493 sure the employees love the friday after thanksgiving. But of all, it's not a federal 949 01:56:32,898 --> 01:56:32,898 holiday. It has no significance where juneteenth does have a significance. In this country. 950 01:56:40,506 --> 01:56:40,506 mhm and I would be much more in line with giving them juneteenth off. And we fought a war over 951 01:56:47,346 --> 01:56:47,346 that. Hmm hmm. We didn't fight a war over the third the friday after thanksgiving. No just 952 01:56:55,954 --> 01:56:55,954 became that became an extra day . Um you know, and the federal government has made juneteenth, 953 01:57:03,261 --> 01:57:03,261 a federal holiday state has made it a holiday. Um so I would be more in line with just amending 954 01:57:14,606 --> 01:57:14,606 policy. 400 leaving policy 500 in. Okay just make three comments. First comment. The 955 01:57:24,850 --> 01:57:24,850 union block at the square town was built in 18 63 when completed at $15,000. Now you 956 01:57:30,923 --> 01:57:30,923 think about that $15,000 in 18 63 and merit? Well 18 65 around that time when that voting was 957 01:57:38,230 --> 01:57:38,230 completed at that time you got to think about marysville. At that time there was nothing 958 01:57:43,302 --> 01:57:43,302 really here at all. They were so happy that the union won the war. The union bloc was named 959 01:57:48,507 --> 01:57:48,507 after the north. So you know, I have. So that's you know, that's my first statement. The second 960 01:57:58,016 --> 01:57:58,016 statement is as the four years that I've been on this council. I have heard all the time that 961 01:58:04,122 --> 01:58:04,122 we need to run this like a business. If we're going to add a holiday, then we need to 962 01:58:09,161 --> 01:58:09,161 remove a holiday. Just like every corporate honda has done it. You know, we a lot of people 963 01:58:14,633 --> 01:58:14,633 have done it. My um my third statement is. And I mean this with respect. We are typical 964 01:58:24,443 --> 01:58:24,443 politicians. Where we as a city do not ever showcased social social awareness to anything no 965 01:58:34,986 --> 01:58:34,986 department. Not the city, no social events and this community or ever used as a platform for 966 01:58:44,763 --> 01:58:44,763 us to celebrate. We stay neutral. And we have made that very clear. But. We claim that 967 01:58:52,637 --> 01:58:52,637 we're going to give a holiday. But I bet you 95% of this community doesn't even realize 968 01:59:00,112 --> 01:59:00,112 that the union bloc was named after winning the war. From in the north and the south. So I 969 01:59:07,252 --> 01:59:07,252 have a hard time trying to give out a holiday for june 19th when I bet you not one post. Nothing 970 01:59:16,361 --> 01:59:16,361 will be said on june 19th as a city. That's my heartburn. With all of these holidays. Thank 971 01:59:27,539 --> 01:59:27,539 you, mrs colored. Holidays are very personal november 1st personal to me for a variety of 972 01:59:38,650 --> 01:59:38,650 reasons. Um those of you who may be irish. You may wish the city would give you what did marches 973 01:59:48,627 --> 01:59:48,627 at the 16th 17th 17. I would prefer that we all end up with groundhogs day because I think 974 01:59:59,005 --> 01:59:59,005 that's one of the most significant days of the year. And then there's december 21st, 975 02:00:03,308 --> 02:00:03,308 and that's when I was born. And then there is december 21st, which is if you're a druid, um, 976 02:00:09,715 --> 02:00:09,715 the return of the sun. So you can get into some very personal comments. Um I would then ask mr 977 02:00:19,492 --> 02:00:19,492 de stank. Oh if I worked full time for the city and if I felt passionately about a holiday are 978 02:00:30,369 --> 02:00:30,369 there any exceptions to my being allowed to use my compensatory time or, however, you phrase 979 02:00:37,877 --> 02:00:37,877 paid time off to celebrate my birthday or groundhogs day or november? 1st all saints day 980 02:00:47,486 --> 02:00:47,486 even though it's a very religious holiday, which we don't recognize as the city. So 981 02:00:52,091 --> 02:00:52,091 my question is, if we turn this down. Then does that truly block a sincere employee from 982 02:01:05,838 --> 02:01:05,838 celebrating in the way he wants to celebrate? Any anyone wanting to take any day off using any 983 02:01:19,318 --> 02:01:19,318 form of paid time off, such as compensatory personal vacation. Uh first has to go through the 984 02:01:26,325 --> 02:01:26,325 supervisor approval. So the only way to that most most folks would get at the night is if it 985 02:01:32,498 --> 02:01:32,498 was a workload issue. Otherwise no, there's nothing borrowing anybody from doing it. Thank 986 02:01:37,036 --> 02:01:37,036 you. I want groundhogs day. Any other custom questions? Yes, mr um. State and federal has 987 02:01:52,952 --> 02:01:52,952 already signed up for this initiated it and followed through with it. What is our 988 02:01:58,157 --> 02:01:58,157 trend? Brian over. Over all the years that as far as you can go back that that this city 989 02:02:08,100 --> 02:02:08,100 government has followed the trends of state and federal. What was the last time he added 990 02:02:15,041 --> 02:02:15,041 a federal holiday. Okay okay, um what? There's a lot of them. There's a misnomer here that the 991 02:02:22,148 --> 02:02:22,148 states recognized this holiday. The ohio code is one of seven states similar in the country 992 02:02:30,023 --> 02:02:30,023 that in the ohio code 1 24.19. It's simply states of the federal government designates a 993 02:02:35,962 --> 02:02:35,962 holiday that it will be a holiday here, so the wine didn't have to make a decision. You 994 02:02:41,434 --> 02:02:41,434 just had a notified people of the ohio code. There were 22 other states that passed 995 02:02:47,606 --> 02:02:47,606 legislation to accept this as a paint the june 19th is a paid holiday. There's 50 18. It did 996 02:02:52,978 --> 02:02:52,978 not. There's three. Code which would be county as well had no say in the matter, 997 02:03:14,534 --> 02:03:14,534 and they took it. County and all those cities that hank mentions are guided by the ohio code that 998 02:03:20,640 --> 02:03:20,640 just take the federal holidays. So there's no negotiation and at all. A lot of other cities 999 02:03:27,146 --> 02:03:27,146 waited for a portion of time when they have a charter and they have the wherewithal to 1000 02:03:32,585 --> 02:03:32,585 establish locally a lot of pay and benefits, such as the holidays they recognize and also 1001 02:03:38,291 --> 02:03:38,291 where they had collective bargaining agreements to go through that process, and that's 1002 02:03:42,662 --> 02:03:42,662 exactly what we did here. But we I don't agree with several things that mr burbey said, 1003 02:03:49,936 --> 02:03:49,936 including not checking with our employees. We well vetted this choice through our employees, 1004 02:03:55,908 --> 02:03:55,908 but we gave our union a false choice on on a question. At the time. We were trying to be as 1005 02:04:02,982 --> 02:04:02,982 prudent as possible, but also to find out how they truly felt so the first collective bargaining 1006 02:04:08,087 --> 02:04:08,087 process was fired, he said. Which holiday would you trade in for juneteenth, which I think is 1007 02:04:13,292 --> 02:04:13,292 some some councils thinking about doing that now. Um, the answer came back. None. Well if 1008 02:04:20,534 --> 02:04:20,534 you would have given the third choice of just adding juneteenth all of them would have said 1009 02:04:25,371 --> 02:04:25,371 heck, yeah, the choice three. But we didn't give him that. And then we went through police to 1010 02:04:29,843 --> 02:04:29,843 say the same thing. And what we learned from that is our employees greatly rely on and 1011 02:04:34,614 --> 02:04:34,614 have for at least 22 years. I've been here and I've gone back and collective bargaining before 1012 02:04:39,686 --> 02:04:39,686 that. These holidays that we've had, including good friday and day after thanksgiving have been 1013 02:04:44,124 --> 02:04:44,124 in place. Since the beginning of my time. So nothing's changed, so they're not willing to give 1014 02:04:48,895 --> 02:04:48,895 them up. Okay? And again. I promised that I wouldn't but since you open up the plot 1015 02:05:01,608 --> 02:05:01,608 guides in regards to the employees that the june juneteenth was offered to 1016 02:05:06,446 --> 02:05:06,446 employees. Correct 19 june, 19th was offered first to the fire union and then the police union 1017 02:05:15,388 --> 02:05:15,388 not to the rest of the employees , which two units constitute about 36% of the city. Okay so 1018 02:05:21,394 --> 02:05:21,394 about 36. Yeah they were given the opportunities to exchange it for another holiday, and they 1019 02:05:29,368 --> 02:05:29,368 decided not to. So with that in mind. Yeah wounded be more prudent to wait until the next 1020 02:05:38,244 --> 02:05:38,244 round of negotiations. And then she how the employees feel about it, and however they feel about 1021 02:05:44,884 --> 02:05:44,884 it at that time. You do that for all the other employees. Well, that's one way to go. I 1022 02:05:50,123 --> 02:05:50,123 certainly don't think meeting with the finance committee is the way to go because it's three 1023 02:05:54,661 --> 02:05:54,661 of you. So why the three of you without the other four would sit and talk about this again is 1024 02:06:00,199 --> 02:06:00,199 beyond me. We've already well vetted. The administration's made its call. We believe it's 1025 02:06:04,738 --> 02:06:04,738 the right thing to do for recruitment and retention. Also given any of the social 1026 02:06:10,143 --> 02:06:10,143 ramifications, the optics of it , terry emery's already told this body we all think this is 1027 02:06:15,148 --> 02:06:15,148 the way to go. If you don't want if you want to vote to amend and pull out that section 500, 1028 02:06:21,755 --> 02:06:21,755 that's fine, but I don't see any reason for the finance committee to then review it later because 1029 02:06:26,760 --> 02:06:26,760 we already have the facts. Okay so let's let's piggyback on what you were saying for, um, 1030 02:06:34,667 --> 02:06:34,667 attention and for attracting new employees. Yeah on average when we are trying to under our 1031 02:06:42,309 --> 02:06:42,309 current and we are one of what we are, but I was told we are in the minority that do it does not 1032 02:06:49,082 --> 02:06:49,082 honor juneteenth. There's a holiday. Yeah on average, if there is a position available 1033 02:06:57,290 --> 02:06:57,290 currently there are only four positioned somewhat vacant be working on filling at least one 1034 02:07:04,631 --> 02:07:04,631 or two of them at the moment, but on average when we do ask for people to put in a resume 1035 02:07:12,039 --> 02:07:12,039 for a job, many applicants do you normally get it's diverse and it's changed through the 1036 02:07:19,613 --> 02:07:19,613 years as I have told you when we discussed the same topic in private, we're finding we're 1037 02:07:24,384 --> 02:07:24,384 getting far fewer applicants. Luckily we're still getting quality as opposed to quantity 1038 02:07:31,124 --> 02:07:31,124 is becoming a problem for everybody, including us if we're talking about a direct 1039 02:07:36,763 --> 02:07:36,763 correlation between adding a 12 holiday and whether it would improve recruitment retention, 1040 02:07:41,502 --> 02:07:41,502 we don't have any hard data on that. No I can't tell you with regard to comparables is before 1041 02:07:47,874 --> 02:07:47,874 juneteenth happened are comparables and we used to pockets. One is by our own our 1042 02:07:55,248 --> 02:07:55,248 own use of analytical data. We go by same cities of same population. Median family income 1043 02:08:03,390 --> 02:08:03,390 income tax number of households in order to establish ballpark what would be available in 1044 02:08:08,762 --> 02:08:08,762 general fund? And we use those comparables for wage and benefits. In addition, we 1045 02:08:13,667 --> 02:08:13,667 remember of more busy a member of the hr central ohio hr network, which is about 150, 1046 02:08:19,973 --> 02:08:19,973 plus 2 70 extended beltway and what we found is previous to june 10th. The average number of 1047 02:08:27,147 --> 02:08:27,147 holidays was about 10.7 ish, and we were above it. And then juneteenth happened, and 1048 02:08:32,452 --> 02:08:32,452 immediately the average went up because a lot of entities didn't have a choice. But to just 1049 02:08:37,991 --> 02:08:37,991 added, so, your averages go up. What we're seeing through collective bargaining is cities 1050 02:08:43,497 --> 02:08:43,497 are in charter or charter cities are starting to add juneteenth. In addition, so now we're up to 1051 02:08:49,469 --> 02:08:49,469 the number you pointed out earlier, hank 11.3 11.4 so the needle is moving in that 1052 02:08:55,676 --> 02:08:55,676 direction. Yeah. Okay but at this point, I think that we are in line with other ones. Yeah 1053 02:09:05,319 --> 02:09:05,319 and again, we can, um make all sorts of statements about the reason for the holiday and 1054 02:09:12,693 --> 02:09:12,693 fortunately the other day has not yet gone on me individually . So um and. It it continues to 1055 02:09:22,836 --> 02:09:22,836 be, um, won that I personally feel that I was city should not move into that direction. As of 1056 02:09:30,811 --> 02:09:30,811 yet. Okay so that's that's my personal views. Mr president. Yes, sir. Um I would like for 1057 02:09:40,788 --> 02:09:40,788 this body. To give consideration to policy 400. Whether we should proceed or delay as one topic 1058 02:09:52,800 --> 02:09:52,800 too. A draw conclusion on them, and then I would like for us to address policy 500. And asked if 1059 02:10:03,109 --> 02:10:03,109 we would we want to act on it today or postpone it also I'd like for us to address each one 1060 02:10:09,483 --> 02:10:09,483 of those individually. I agree with you fully. No no, we should should. That's why we pull them 1061 02:10:14,988 --> 02:10:14,988 out because we don't want to jeopardize the whole ordinance. So there's a lot of good in the 1062 02:10:23,263 --> 02:10:23,263 ordinance. It's just those two that I think they should have a public discussion, which is what 1063 02:10:29,770 --> 02:10:29,770 we're doing at the moment, and that's why I asked for those those two to be listed 1064 02:10:34,241 --> 02:10:34,241 separately. Okay. I understand next steps. No, no, no, that's yeah. So any further discussions 1065 02:10:41,449 --> 02:10:41,449 on policy paper hundreds okay? Okay hearing none. I will read. I will raise. Let's see. I will 1066 02:10:54,028 --> 02:10:54,028 make a motion. To postpone to date uncertain. Policy for with regard to policy 400, okay? Okay 1067 02:11:10,244 --> 02:11:10,244 so we are postponing policy 400 , which is the 27 pay periods. Yes okay. That's the one that 1068 02:11:20,220 --> 02:11:20,220 yes, sir. 405 100 will be be. We want to take one at a time we working on 400 were working on 1069 02:11:30,731 --> 02:11:30,731 four and be part of the thing we need to do is a motion to a man. The legislation to remove. Um 1070 02:11:40,241 --> 02:11:40,241 the amended language and policy 403 passes. Then you can. Then the president council can just, 1071 02:11:49,516 --> 02:11:49,516 uh, senator committee or or. Put it into a working group again or whatever, whatever. Whatever you 1072 02:11:57,057 --> 02:11:57,057 want to do this yeah. Business here is to amend legislation that's on the table, removing 1073 02:12:03,030 --> 02:12:03,030 that particular policy. Okay piecemeal. Do it again. Five. Potentially that's what 1074 02:12:10,003 --> 02:12:10,003 counselors can. I can I add a thought? Yes, sir. I would not recommend removing the entire 1075 02:12:15,876 --> 02:12:15,876 policy. Just removing the section or paragraph six, which covers 27 pay periods, not the 1076 02:12:20,714 --> 02:12:20,714 entire amend it by removing only paragraphs six and then we'll be back to the policy. Being silent 1077 02:12:27,088 --> 02:12:27,088 on 27 papers as it was previous . Okay so that's consistent with policy 400. Yes so we would just 1078 02:12:40,467 --> 02:12:40,467 say we would recommend to remove policy 400 regarding pay periods . Then we would vote on you 1079 02:12:46,674 --> 02:12:46,674 wouldn't man paragraph six because section 400 has about seven or eight items, so I agree 1080 02:12:57,017 --> 02:12:57,017 with dying. Take out paragraph six. So you would need to either amend your would like to amend 1081 02:13:05,259 --> 02:13:05,259 my motion to amend what tim said. Yeah I know they do to remove paragraph six from polls 1082 02:13:14,869 --> 02:13:14,869 from policy 400. Yes addresses the number clear that specifically addresses the 1083 02:13:21,942 --> 02:13:21,942 number of cape periods right in that when or I'm sorry the number of periods that employees 1084 02:13:28,916 --> 02:13:28,916 would get paid in a year where there are 27 pays. Um, I think mark made the motion. Then I 1085 02:13:35,757 --> 02:13:35,757 withdraw mine. Okay the motion is to remove paragraph six from policy 400. Okay, guards, two 1086 02:13:43,864 --> 02:13:43,864 pay periods. If you don't mind. Um almost there. H 1 39. Okay so the section reads there so that 1087 02:14:02,116 --> 02:14:02,116 we are all clear on this one. Um this one is, um, section pay. Yeah the policy title is general 1088 02:14:12,360 --> 02:14:12,360 pay and work hours, and it's covered on the policy 400. So it reads. Section number 6 27 pay 1089 02:14:20,301 --> 02:14:20,301 periods. There are normally 26 pay periods in the year in some years, however, there are 27 bi 1090 02:14:26,941 --> 02:14:26,941 weekly pay periods. The employees are compensated for hours worked the annual take 1091 02:14:32,980 --> 02:14:32,980 home pay could be greater than in this 2017 a period here. Salaries exempt employees are 1092 02:14:41,489 --> 02:14:41,489 compensated every two weeks. As such there any will salary would be one paycheck more than the 1093 02:14:48,396 --> 02:14:48,396 annual salary put a 27 year pay period. It's I will ensure this anomaly is popularly noted in 1094 02:14:55,770 --> 02:14:55,770 the annual pay ordinance, and the anomaly increases is not affected forwards. So that is 1095 02:15:01,475 --> 02:15:01,475 the portion that we are voting on. Yeah, so if you say yes, it will be removed. If you say no, 1096 02:15:09,217 --> 02:15:09,217 it will stay in here. Am I correct them. Okay, so and you made that motion for this. I'm 1097 02:15:18,593 --> 02:15:18,593 sorry. Did so we needed all golfer that mr roush? Yes mr reems? Yes mr carpenter? Yes mr 1098 02:15:26,067 --> 02:15:26,067 seymour? Yes mrs groat? Yes, mr berger. Mister burbey? Yes yes. Okay so that section will be 1099 02:15:34,609 --> 02:15:34,609 removed and then again become to the other section, which is, um mhm, the to amend policy paper 1100 02:15:42,283 --> 02:15:42,283 100 regarding holidays, so we been beating this horse for a while. Now if you want to keep 1101 02:15:52,127 --> 02:15:52,127 going, or do we want to make a motion on this can I help first two, although I don't agree with 1102 02:15:57,632 --> 02:15:57,632 what you're doing, I should like to help you do it. Of course. What I would recommend is that 1103 02:16:02,069 --> 02:16:02,069 you amend table 501 to remove reference to juneteenth. And then in the entire policy where 1104 02:16:09,243 --> 02:16:09,243 the reference is made of 12 holidays, return it to 11. So basically, we would remove. 1105 02:16:16,718 --> 02:16:16,718 table 500-1. And in this policy , where it lists well holidays as an amendment. Or a change to 1106 02:16:25,026 --> 02:16:25,026 the old is returning to 11. And we'll be good to go. Okay so let me get that one. If I could ask 1107 02:16:40,008 --> 02:16:40,008 the question really quickly, go ahead. If you the two I'm going to ask if you don't feel 1108 02:16:47,515 --> 02:16:50,719 comfortable with asking if you don't feel comfortable quite steady in the statement, you can just tell me so, miss alexandra , you work for the county. Do you guys have a diversity 1109 02:16:55,891 --> 02:16:55,891 inclusion group in your county or do you guys do anything to support members who are maybe 1110 02:17:03,131 --> 02:17:03,131 feel marginalized within the county? Employment. Because brian is taken, saying he 1111 02:17:10,204 --> 02:17:10,204 doesn't agree that we should be removing june 19th from a holiday. But in our organization 1112 02:17:15,810 --> 02:17:15,810 we don't actually promote. Any type of diversity within the workplace with social media or 1113 02:17:23,318 --> 02:17:27,055 anything like that, and I just want to know from a county employees. Not true. That's not true at all. Are you saying our organization is the city of marysville and that we don't 1114 02:17:31,893 --> 02:17:31,893 promote diversity? I would take exception to that existed, saying is when it comes to 1115 02:17:38,399 --> 02:17:38,399 social events. We say neutral? And I'm saying is on if on social media or is there any 1116 02:17:49,210 --> 02:17:49,210 type of oregon is their types of organizations within within the county department who is using 1117 02:17:59,888 --> 02:17:59,888 social media platform to educate residents on social events. That happens throughout the 1118 02:18:03,926 --> 02:18:03,926 community. That's that's that's that's really all all I'm trying to say so sorry if I offended 1119 02:18:11,166 --> 02:18:11,166 you. I'm not trying to know you didn't offend me. I just disagree with you, 100% so if 1120 02:18:15,604 --> 02:18:15,604 you don't feel comfortable, you don't have to say anything, but it's okay. Revised code. That 1121 02:18:23,445 --> 02:18:23,445 the appointment authorities can also give additional days, okay? So that's what that's ok. Okay. 1122 02:18:31,787 --> 02:18:31,787 in the county of additional yes. Sure. Before the ohio revised okay? But it's up to every 1123 02:18:44,099 --> 02:18:44,099 department to what you're saying so okay. Thank you very much. Yes, ma'am. I was just wondering 1124 02:18:53,642 --> 02:18:53,642 if we talked about this for eight more years. Would there be a consensus among the seven of 1125 02:19:00,282 --> 02:19:00,282 us or does it behoove us? To make a decision and make a motion now what would be your 1126 02:19:08,022 --> 02:19:08,022 concern, mr president. Well, he's asked for somebody to make a motion to amend, so he's 1127 02:19:15,698 --> 02:19:15,698 waiting for somebody to make a motion to amend. Right now the amendment would be to remove 1128 02:19:21,003 --> 02:19:21,003 juneteenth and go back to 11 holidays. That's emotion, emotion. He's looking testing. 1129 02:19:26,207 --> 02:19:26,207 thank you just made it. No I did not. Alright well, I'll try. So mr president, I would like to 1130 02:19:35,684 --> 02:19:35,684 make the motion to amend the legislation to remove juneteenth from policy 500 in addition to 1131 02:19:42,324 --> 02:19:42,324 that same motion where it describes the number of holidays as being 12 revert that back to 1132 02:19:49,197 --> 02:19:49,197 11. That's the motion motion policy 500. See I think that's a good motion. I think it's clear 1133 02:19:56,471 --> 02:19:56,471 as everybody cleared what it means. Alright okay and surprising. So, yes, boat vote 1134 02:20:04,346 --> 02:20:04,346 means. Means juneteenth is removed and the holidays get reverted to 11 means keeping 1135 02:20:11,387 --> 02:20:11,387 okay particular table 5, 500-1 and piece of legislation. Okay and then I still owe you an 1136 02:20:23,432 --> 02:20:23,432 answer to your question, okay? I still owe you an answer to that question. The question was, how 1137 02:20:32,708 --> 02:20:32,708 do we feel about this people? 5678 years from now. Okay that's sort of a misinterpretation. 1138 02:20:39,281 --> 02:20:39,281 what I intended was could we argue this for the next 678 years and come up with a 1139 02:20:45,154 --> 02:20:45,154 different answer from what each of us believes this minute? Mhm that's okay. Is it going to 1140 02:20:53,061 --> 02:20:53,061 benefit us? Or does the motion on the table do we're just moving it forward more 1141 02:20:59,501 --> 02:20:59,501 expeditiously for me personally. June 19. Isn't. For me. It's not whether or not june 19th should 1142 02:21:09,111 --> 02:21:09,111 be a holiday or not a holiday. It's we claim that we are a business and we run the screen 1143 02:21:15,350 --> 02:21:15,350 as a business, so we should then run it like a business and remove a holiday. And also if 1144 02:21:20,856 --> 02:21:20,856 there are like the there's the a m e church on e. Sports street. There are a number of buildings 1145 02:21:27,596 --> 02:21:31,400 in this community that celebrates african american history that as a community as a city we do not ever. Educate anybody on I call the question. That's my that's called the 1146 02:21:42,445 --> 02:21:42,445 question issue. I don't think there's a motion yet there was made it. Yeah that's right. 1147 02:21:50,151 --> 02:21:50,151 already local, please, mr reems. Uh, no. Mr carpenter? Yes, mr seymour. I want to clarify my 1148 02:22:00,996 --> 02:22:00,996 vote that my vote is yes. Um. With the anticipation of bringing it back next year. Hmm. 1149 02:22:13,809 --> 02:22:13,809 but it's yes it is. Yes, okay. This is code, mr berger? Yes. Mr burbey? Yes. Mr roush. Four. 1150 02:22:27,223 --> 02:22:27,223 yes. Oh yes. So basically motion appeals. Yeah so no majority just passes mhm removed. It is 1151 02:22:42,471 --> 02:22:42,471 removed at something. It's only zoning, but yet, take six. It's only and tony. Okay already, so 1152 02:22:51,013 --> 02:22:51,013 it's only it's only that we need to take sex. Okay would you repeat the conclusion, please? 1153 02:22:57,253 --> 02:22:57,253 yes we have taken action on both the potential amendments. Now we need a motion to pest 1154 02:23:05,160 --> 02:23:05,160 legislation. Mr president. Maybe our second reading. I apologize . So secondary leading citizens 1155 02:23:14,503 --> 02:23:14,503 want to change in to this riley 14 79 downey drive. I feel that council is missing an 1156 02:23:21,443 --> 02:23:21,443 opportunity and embrace diversity of marysville. And just because people don't look 1157 02:23:27,316 --> 02:23:27,316 like you look like me doesn't mean that I can't appreciate what's important to them. And I 1158 02:23:34,489 --> 02:23:34,489 really feel that, um we're missing that chance to embrace our community. The diversity um 1159 02:23:43,833 --> 02:23:43,833 we are, as mrs group said. The employees would like to have another holiday. Um it's easy to 1160 02:23:50,973 --> 02:23:50,973 just understand. Um contractually, I happen to know if you were to do with mr ross 1161 02:23:58,213 --> 02:23:58,213 was suggesting which is and mr berger as far as giving up another holiday and moving 1162 02:24:03,352 --> 02:24:03,352 around, contractually, you would still have to give mr kostenko can clarify. You still have to 1163 02:24:08,857 --> 02:24:12,161 give those holidays to the firefighters and police officers that negotiate their contract. So it isn't gonna it's gonna cost that 36% for those, so I understand where coming from? I 1164 02:24:18,868 --> 02:24:18,868 just feel like we look at, um other communities in central highland. We're missing the 1165 02:24:24,173 --> 02:24:24,173 boat. If we don't accept this, 19th june 19th thank you. Okay thank you. Anybody else has any 1166 02:24:30,346 --> 02:24:30,346 comments? Mr president. Mhm. I do want assurance that just come back to us. Equals next. 1167 02:24:42,858 --> 02:24:42,858 government issue. I you can. I guess you can make a motion to place it in front of a committee 1168 02:24:54,003 --> 02:24:54,003 . Maybe um, I guess they're they're different ways. Um you can make a motion to place it on 1169 02:25:01,343 --> 02:25:01,343 the calendar on a particular council calendar and march for discussion. And council can vote 1170 02:25:08,084 --> 02:25:08,084 on it. And that would give assurance. However however, whatever happens, you want to 1171 02:25:12,555 --> 02:25:12,555 take there's different ways to do it whether you wanted to go to committee whether you want to 1172 02:25:17,493 --> 02:25:17,493 come back to council. They want to go to work session. But if you want to share right now that 1173 02:25:21,697 --> 02:25:21,697 I would make a motion look at your account and make a motion to put it on the agenda for 1174 02:25:27,503 --> 02:25:27,503 specific meeting okay? I think just motion added to the agenda of february session about that 1175 02:25:37,780 --> 02:25:37,780 february work session. Yeah. Mhm. Yep. Okay um, but you have to okay? Including that the 1176 02:25:53,363 --> 02:25:53,363 policy. 500 consideration placed on council agenda. First council meeting. Work session on 1177 02:26:06,642 --> 02:26:06,642 february 5th the same very 5th 2024. This is not february. 2nd yeah, already, um any okay? Any 1178 02:26:15,952 --> 02:26:15,952 discussion? Already local police , mr carpenter? Yes mr seymour. Mrs groat? Yes mr berger. Mister 1179 02:26:27,496 --> 02:26:27,496 burbey. Mr roush. Mr. Reems? Yes. Six. Yes. Okay? Ready. Have you back again? This second 1180 02:26:38,107 --> 02:26:38,107 quebec again? The second? No, that's not an amendment. Okay already, so never need emotion 1181 02:26:43,913 --> 02:26:43,913 to pester legislation. President wait. I'm sorry. Second reading , right? That was just a 1182 02:26:50,320 --> 02:26:50,320 emotion. For a second reading. We haven't waved third. Yeah passing second meeting right 1183 02:26:56,159 --> 02:26:56,159 now. We have to ask. You don't know if you already did it yet to ask for citizens coming, so 1184 02:27:03,299 --> 02:27:03,299 we need to do we need to wave third reading. Yeah because it's amended. Do we need a wave or do 1185 02:27:08,971 --> 02:27:08,971 we let it come back in two weeks. Is there anything in here this time critical that we have 1186 02:27:19,949 --> 02:27:19,949 to address tonight. Yeah. Are you talking about all of four and 500 you? Yes okay. Yeah. So 1187 02:27:34,597 --> 02:27:34,597 you need a motion to waive third. Would make a motion to waive the third reading on what 1188 02:27:42,105 --> 02:27:42,105 item the amendment or the whole no, it's not. It's on the amended. Okay it's only managed 1189 02:27:47,877 --> 02:27:47,877 amended legislation, so we have a motion that the wave the third reading on the amended 1190 02:27:53,650 --> 02:27:53,650 legislation, ordinance tag. Mr seymour? Yes mrs grope mr berger ? Yes mr burbey? Yes mr roush? 1191 02:28:05,261 --> 02:28:05,261 yes mr reems. Mr carpenter? Yes. Seven. Yes already. So now we need to move forward and to, um 1192 02:28:17,406 --> 02:28:17,406 . I would say there's still legislation correct, mr president like to make the 1193 02:28:23,079 --> 02:28:23,079 motion to pass make. I'm so sorry to interrupt you. Can I make a we've discussed this two 1194 02:28:29,086 --> 02:28:29,086 or three times before the timing of this it needs to be in place before 1 november. So what I've 1195 02:28:33,890 --> 02:28:33,890 said when we've delayed this two or three times already that if we're going to get 1 november, 1196 02:28:38,027 --> 02:28:38,027 you're gonna have to declare an emergency. I was clear at the work session about that. I think 1197 02:28:43,099 --> 02:28:43,099 the second read. Rather than declared emergency. I would suggest that we, um maybe 1198 02:28:49,206 --> 02:28:49,206 consider another amendment to make the effective date november 1st. I think that would be 1199 02:28:55,878 --> 02:28:55,878 better rather than past. This is an emergency. Okay? Really and that would be for the whole that 1200 02:29:04,621 --> 02:29:04,621 would become effective. I'm sorry that the council legislation would become 1201 02:29:09,593 --> 02:29:09,593 effective. A little bit subsequent to when the legislation says that the policy 1202 02:29:16,466 --> 02:29:16,466 changes become effective. Which I don't think it's a problem, right? That's not a problem is 1203 02:29:21,604 --> 02:29:21,604 it? Brian? It's not a problem. Just so you're aware of four and 500 or sections that came before 1204 02:29:27,377 --> 02:29:27,377 you. There are other sections to this policy, meaning that are waiting on this. And if we could 1205 02:29:32,182 --> 02:29:32,182 get this done and effective, I like what counselors saying here so long as it's effective 1 1206 02:29:37,587 --> 02:29:37,587 november. It fits that need. Already. If that's my position is this is obviously a very 1207 02:29:47,730 --> 02:29:47,730 sensitive topic. I've given administration and counsel my view that we the city should be 1208 02:29:54,337 --> 02:29:54,337 recognizing june teeth. And I think that it would even be more probably more egregious to look 1209 02:30:03,113 --> 02:30:03,113 at it as an emergency. So I mean , at this point, I think that a referendum need to be put in 1210 02:30:08,719 --> 02:30:08,719 place. A reference period needs to be intact. Okay? So your your accommodation to counselors to 1211 02:30:17,194 --> 02:30:17,194 make this data and effective the post provisions to the ordinance that says that all of 1212 02:30:26,003 --> 02:30:26,003 these policy changes will be effective on november 1st 2023. Um and that way, would it would 1213 02:30:37,449 --> 02:30:37,449 it be when the legislation actually becomes effective on october whatever eighth. I'm 1214 02:30:44,755 --> 02:30:44,755 sorry. On november 8th, it'll revert back to the effective date of the policy changes. 1215 02:30:51,728 --> 02:30:51,728 okay? Anybody that wants to make that motion. Mr president. I move. We had a section. At the 1216 02:30:58,336 --> 02:30:58,336 end, these policies shall become effective november 1 2023. Okay? Already local, please. Mrs group 1217 02:31:07,345 --> 02:31:07,345 yes, mr berger? Yes mr burbey yes, yes. Yes mr carpenter. Yes mr seymour? Seven? Yes okay, now 1218 02:31:19,991 --> 02:31:19,991 you need a motion to pass a motion to pass, okay? We need a motion to pass the second. Okay 1219 02:31:29,066 --> 02:31:29,066 go ahead. We need to go back to second reading now with that event with this additional 1220 02:31:34,471 --> 02:31:34,471 amendment okay at third, and we added another amendments. We could go back to the second 1221 02:31:39,610 --> 02:31:42,780 amendment to discuss the legislation as amended, so it's the legislation with the november 1st affected day. Okay, already, so any comments from citizens on the amended 1222 02:31:49,720 --> 02:31:49,720 legislation. Would make a motion to waive the third reading on the amended amended legislation. 1223 02:31:59,464 --> 02:31:59,464 okay we have emotion. Local, please, mr berger. Yes mr burbey . Yes yes. Yes mr carpenter. Mr 1224 02:32:09,073 --> 02:32:09,073 seymour. Mrs groat? Yes seven. Yes mr president like to make the motion to pass ordinance j. 1225 02:32:16,848 --> 02:32:16,848 okay we have a motion of the best ordinance day. Local police. Mr burbey? Yes sh yes, 1226 02:32:24,389 --> 02:32:24,389 mr reems. Mr carpenter. Mr seymour. Mrs group? Yes mr berger? Yes. Seven. Yes. Okay? 1227 02:32:33,931 --> 02:32:33,931 mm. That concludes the resolutions and ordinances. Comments of the city of mineral 1228 02:32:44,209 --> 02:32:44,209 city manager I'll pass, but thank you for your consideration . Already, council we'll start 1229 02:32:50,314 --> 02:32:50,314 with mr seymour tonight. After that last complicated ordinance, I'll pass, okay? Okay mrs god, 1230 02:33:01,993 --> 02:33:01,993 very simple. Early voting starts wednesday morning. Eight o'clock at the board of elections. Um 1231 02:33:09,634 --> 02:33:09,634 the other piece is as important as it is for your award representatives, it is much more 1232 02:33:16,741 --> 02:33:16,741 important for two other issues on the ballot. So please do your own research. Please look into 1233 02:33:24,082 --> 02:33:24,082 what these issues are. And please vote. Thank you. Hey mr berger and enlightenment, I 1234 02:33:31,655 --> 02:33:31,655 guess of june 19th. If my memory serves me correct. There was a gentleman named mr brown. Mr 1235 02:33:38,929 --> 02:33:38,929 brown was a city council represent representative in the city of arizona. I think in the 1236 02:33:43,601 --> 02:33:43,601 sixties, I could be wrong, though. Um he was mr brown. His wife was mrs brown. They were 1237 02:33:49,640 --> 02:33:49,640 african americans. He became mayor of marysville. At that time, he was quoted that in the 1238 02:33:56,247 --> 02:33:56,247 papers that he did business and marian he's cutting his hair grocery shopping because he felt 1239 02:34:03,188 --> 02:34:03,188 more comfortable in respected the residents of the city, marysville. His wife. Went 1240 02:34:09,160 --> 02:34:09,160 around to all the all the homes in this community and numbered all the children who could not 1241 02:34:16,267 --> 02:34:16,267 go to public schools in this community due to their um, mental status, handicap 1242 02:34:21,873 --> 02:34:21,873 abilities or other issues. She then created. Well back up a little bit at that time african 1243 02:34:29,948 --> 02:34:29,948 americans, especially women, not just women, african american women, but also, um white women 1244 02:34:35,587 --> 02:34:35,587 were not allowed to buy a home or have a credit card or anything in their name in the 19 1245 02:34:42,593 --> 02:34:42,593 seventies, so especially being african american, you could not have, um, a credit card or 1246 02:34:48,399 --> 02:34:48,399 there's cabs certain types of wealth. Different banks wouldn't allow you to be able to use 1247 02:34:55,373 --> 02:34:55,373 because of your, um status. So she started a one room schoolhouse in the old east 1248 02:35:04,216 --> 02:35:04,216 school elementary school building that no longer stands. She then partnered with the 1249 02:35:08,887 --> 02:35:08,887 heroic with the lewis family. The lewis family had the means in the finances to then create 1250 02:35:14,959 --> 02:35:14,959 the heroin. Lewis score. Most people know and respect the harewood louis family and what 1251 02:35:21,800 --> 02:35:21,800 they did for this community. My question is as we debate june 19th. How many of us really know 1252 02:35:29,674 --> 02:35:29,674 mrs brown in the work that she did for this community on the behalf of all children in the 1253 02:35:34,446 --> 02:35:34,446 city of marysville. Thank you. Okay? Hmm mr rush and piggy back a little further. His name was 1254 02:35:42,821 --> 02:35:42,821 clarence brown, and he was known as the galloping ghost when he was in high school, clifton's 1255 02:35:48,993 --> 02:35:48,993 brown betty. Yeah yeah. Clarence was my dad. My grandpa's name? Yeah. Clifton's so he actually 1256 02:35:57,168 --> 02:35:57,168 coached my dad when he was a little kid, so, um and think about it at that time, I believe 1257 02:36:03,709 --> 02:36:03,709 there was either three or five black families in marysville and he was still elected mayor. So 1258 02:36:09,614 --> 02:36:09,614 um, we live in a farm community . It's harvest season. Have some patients, please. The farmers 1259 02:36:18,690 --> 02:36:18,690 don't want to be on the road. They are not making money when they're not in the field. So 1260 02:36:23,762 --> 02:36:23,762 please give him a little space and let them get to their next field so that they can do their 1261 02:36:29,834 --> 02:36:29,834 work. Thank you. Hmm mr lives don't have anything add. Okay. Thank you so much. Yes mr. Thank 1262 02:36:39,711 --> 02:36:39,711 you. Mr president. You looked at me. I'll keep it short, really, just really enjoyed the 1263 02:36:45,017 --> 02:36:45,017 presentation that we got about the maury. Your visit. Thank you for everyone who was involved 1264 02:36:52,924 --> 02:36:52,924 with that for representing marysville. You know, across the pond. I mean, it's amazing. I 1265 02:36:57,128 --> 02:36:57,128 enjoyed looking at it. The updates online. And the presentation was given the 1266 02:37:02,467 --> 02:37:02,467 night. I mean, it's just incredible, and I look forward to seeing what next year's event 1267 02:37:06,938 --> 02:37:06,938 looks like here in ohio, so very exciting stuff. I'll keep it short. Have a good night. Thank 1268 02:37:12,777 --> 02:37:12,777 you. Okay, thank you very much. Uh um, I do want to comment about the legislation that we 1269 02:37:18,717 --> 02:37:18,717 had tonight. We've talked a lot about it. You know, I thought a lot about it, and on. 1270 02:37:23,422 --> 02:37:23,422 fortunately it came to a point. Where um, um a decision needed to be made for the time being 1271 02:37:31,997 --> 02:37:31,997 and be vetted and we discussed it as best we could, and a final decision was made that I think 1272 02:37:39,471 --> 02:37:39,471 is maybe stand with this one at this point, and it is due to be back again in february, so we'll 1273 02:37:47,078 --> 02:37:47,078 see in february. What the and this this this is maybe a good exercise to wrap our heads 1274 02:37:56,154 --> 02:37:56,154 around the holiday. Yeah, because even today I would they could guess that if we would go 1275 02:38:03,461 --> 02:38:03,461 out and ask 100 people, whether it's june team means that probably less than 50% knows 1276 02:38:10,970 --> 02:38:10,970 what juneteenth spain's caught a lot of people by surprise, and now it's here and now eventually 1277 02:38:18,677 --> 02:38:18,677 we will deal with it in the proper way, so with that in mind, um I don't think I have 1278 02:38:27,720 --> 02:38:27,720 anything else, but tonight, so I built a commotion to adjoin moved
