Actually I can get you a few names from veterans typically, um, just a 95 00:12:17,278 --> 00:12:17,278 wide ray of what they provide a lot of professional services.

So we have a very big district, so I don't know how 108 00:13:30,386 --> 00:13:30,386 she keeps it straight all the press, but she does, but we would love to work with your 109 00:13:34,590 --> 00:13:34,590 team to see if we can highlight some of your businesses and we I know the mayor and I have spoken 110 00:13:40,829 --> 00:13:40,829 in the past about trying to build out some programming with the new oven with new albany 111 00:13:45,401 --> 00:13:47,737 itself to provide not just to veterans, but to all entrepreneurs, some type of training or counseling. To help them with their thinking about starting a business but also if 112 00:13:52,675 --> 00:13:52,675 they are pandemic was rough on some of our small businesses. Right so we provided and 113 00:13:56,879 --> 00:13:56,879 implemented through our resource partners, different financial literacy type programs, better 114 00:14:02,285 --> 00:14:02,285 understanding of operating costs , pricing succession planning those type of more 203 100 level 115 00:14:08,391 --> 00:14:11,494 classes. So we're looking for them. Those entrepreneurs, they're probably been in business five years or so at least. But we would be willing to offer that obviously, it's 116 00:14:16,533 --> 00:14:20,336 always free of charge when it's the u. S small business administration. Oh, great. Appreciate it again.

We appreciate the opportunity to 121 00:14:56,639 --> 00:14:56,639 speak to you tonight at first like to also recognize that the larger and forced you all know 122 00:15:05,115 --> 00:15:05,115 chief road. What we like to do tonight is just maybe do this twice a year. This kind of 123 00:15:12,856 --> 00:15:12,856 update you on some of the activities that township what's going on and just kind of have 124 00:15:17,461 --> 00:15:17,461 that dialogue. We thought that would be productive to do that. But I also want to give a 125 00:15:21,999 --> 00:15:21,999 special thanks to council member mike duric. He does a great job informing us on the city 126 00:15:27,971 --> 00:15:27,971 faithfully comes to all the township meetings and we have representation from the city, so 127 00:15:32,711 --> 00:15:32,711 we really appreciate his participation. So thanks, mike. Um a couple of things we'd like 128 00:15:38,783 --> 00:15:38,783 to do is yeah. Worked about that. Give me some highlights on the swimming pool. Um it was an 129 00:15:48,059 --> 00:15:48,059 incredibly hot summer this last summer, we had many 50 degree 50/50 93 days. Um just some 130 00:15:56,066 --> 00:15:56,066 stats for you won't go through all of them, but 643 pull memberships were purchased and 131 00:16:03,074 --> 00:16:03,074 we had over 41,000 visits to the plain township swimming pool orr 1000 visits, and we had 1000. 132 00:16:13,484 --> 00:16:16,854 community members for people from other communities. You know, going to the swimming pool? Um another key thing is we did change full management companies, and that was pretty 133 00:16:23,627 --> 00:16:23,627 successful this year. We restored swim lessons. Once again. We've had some problems 134 00:16:28,767 --> 00:16:28,767 with not being able to offer swim lessons that we were able to do that and we think that's a 135 00:16:33,704 --> 00:16:33,704 great benefit to the community as well. Our total pool revenues as you look at the figures 136 00:16:38,777 --> 00:16:38,777 you'll see there that $415,000 was a revenues exceeded their expenses did not include our 137 00:16:44,649 --> 00:16:44,649 debt payments from an operating perspective. You know, we made a little bit of money that we can 138 00:16:50,789 --> 00:16:50,789 put back into the swing. And I'm pleased to, you know, give you some information that the plane 139 00:16:56,995 --> 00:16:56,995 township aquatic gators. Defended the swamp by earning their second consecutive greater 140 00:17:03,435 --> 00:17:03,435 columbus swim league championship. So I think they work. It will be very happy. 141 00:17:08,873 --> 00:17:08,873 maybe he'll get a few potential high schools members. They're going on. A couple of things I 142 00:17:14,312 --> 00:17:14,312 want to mention is the maplewood cemetery, and this is kind of really, um there's a lot of 143 00:17:20,686 --> 00:17:20,686 efforts that we have with the cemetery specifically around the beautification and. Some of the 144 00:17:27,259 --> 00:17:27,259 infrastructure there, so we have some exciting plans and will be adding a color barium in the 145 00:17:33,331 --> 00:17:33,331 future and some other landscaping and prayer gardens and things of that nature. So I 146 00:17:39,605 --> 00:17:43,576 think you'll see some nice improvements. The cemetery if you haven't had a chance to take a look at it so beautiful asset to the community, I think you'll find that it's well taken care 147 00:17:48,947 --> 00:17:48,947 of as well. Um to that fact we have an opportunity to partnership. With a unique 148 00:17:56,955 --> 00:17:56,955 program called reese across america and the boy scout troop 4 50 brought this opportunity to 149 00:18:03,262 --> 00:18:03,262 our attention. Essentially what this is during the holidays. They go out and raise money for 150 00:18:10,503 --> 00:18:10,503 reasons we place them on every veteran. Gravesite. And the cemetery. And I did not know 151 00:18:17,810 --> 00:18:17,810 this, but it's only $15 for a read, but there's approximately 15. The. Burials in the cemetery 152 00:18:29,655 --> 00:18:29,655 or former veterans. And so I think from the townships, perspective and the city that we 153 00:18:35,895 --> 00:18:35,895 would collaborate and make sure every veteran out there has a resigned. I think that'd be a 154 00:18:41,567 --> 00:18:41,567 great, you know, unifying thing for our veterans, so I think it's a great opportunity. It 155 00:18:46,072 --> 00:18:46,072 sounds like a great organizations and the boy scouts are really involved in it, and 156 00:18:51,310 --> 00:18:51,310 they have some neat ideas. And I think they'll just be anything around the holidays so hopefully 157 00:18:57,250 --> 00:18:57,250 y'all can help us. Get people to support them. Um the next thing I'd like to talk to you a little 158 00:19:05,959 --> 00:19:05,959 bit is about an update. On some of the roads. As you probably know. There's only 13 township 159 00:19:11,698 --> 00:19:11,698 roads and some real street lights were working with the franklin county engineer office 160 00:19:18,605 --> 00:19:18,605 and the city on a feasibility study for the route. 605 and walsh one that street 161 00:19:24,044 --> 00:19:24,044 intersections. That's really a problematic intersection there. There's a lot of accidents if 162 00:19:31,150 --> 00:19:31,150 you've ever driven in that area will know it's a very dangerous intersections. So we are um, 163 00:19:36,490 --> 00:19:36,490 excited to hear about that. But a lot of the residents, especially in the corporate and 164 00:19:41,261 --> 00:19:41,261 non corporate area has really been contacting office and expressing concerns and safety. 165 00:19:47,001 --> 00:19:47,001 so we'll be trying to move that forward. Uh specifically, we're working with the pwc for a grant 166 00:19:54,007 --> 00:19:54,007 to fund the stormwater on klaus road. There's a lot of infrastructure there and 167 00:20:00,014 --> 00:20:00,014 flooding that happens because of some of the crease. Um, but we're pretty we're pretty 168 00:20:06,520 --> 00:20:06,520 excited about some of the work that we're going to be doing there to address the residents 169 00:20:10,591 --> 00:20:10,591 concerns and improve that storm water in that situation there. Um couple. Other key items we 170 00:20:16,096 --> 00:20:16,096 thought we had mentioned is the we're happy to share and see the new roundabout morrison babbitt 171 00:20:23,370 --> 00:20:23,370 road. We think that's a great for the township in the city. That's a great success. And 172 00:20:29,844 --> 00:20:29,844 we're also interested in the bevel heimer road south of warming street in in the public. 173 00:20:35,048 --> 00:20:35,048 need for a leisure trail connection from the township to the city. So we think that would 174 00:20:40,721 --> 00:20:40,721 be key to so if again if you have any questions, interrupt me. Listen. Keep this informal. 175 00:20:46,026 --> 00:20:46,026 yes, sir. Further development of bevel heimer south walnut. Hmm you have any plans to enhance 176 00:20:53,901 --> 00:20:53,901 that road or other than the these are trails that you have just mentioned. Um well, it is 177 00:21:02,143 --> 00:21:02,143 and I'll that bin question. It's an opportunity. We're exploring the city staff field talked 178 00:21:17,224 --> 00:21:17,224 about it. It's a challenging in the coming corporate area. There's no dedicated right away. 179 00:21:21,829 --> 00:21:21,829 people have wanted highway eastman centerline. But we believe there's enough how is 180 00:21:28,569 --> 00:21:28,569 dedicated right away? Work with the city. Thanks. Ship the developer has a commitment to 181 00:21:37,812 --> 00:21:37,812 improve his side of the of the right away in conjunction with that subdivision that's going in 182 00:21:43,652 --> 00:21:43,652 there. Okay. Thank you. So that's kind of the update on some of the road. Any other 183 00:21:52,594 --> 00:21:52,594 questions. Um. I would like to get into a little bit of an update on some of the, uh 184 00:22:04,139 --> 00:22:04,139 emergency services that we provide through the department. But before we do that, I want to 185 00:22:09,411 --> 00:22:09,411 recognize scott mcafee and tonight and josh poland. I just they have been such an 186 00:22:16,952 --> 00:22:16,952 incredible resource for us to supply and support some of our safety matters that we have from 187 00:22:23,091 --> 00:22:23,091 the townships, so it's been very, very helpful. Their collaboration so I just wanted 188 00:22:27,129 --> 00:22:30,966 to publicly recognize him and tell you how much we appreciate your support for the fire department. Um most recently there was an open house. Hopefully, some of you got to 189 00:22:36,672 --> 00:22:36,672 visit it. It's been a long time . Uh we haven't had one in two years. It's been a little bit of 190 00:22:42,711 --> 00:22:42,711 a highlight. You know a little bit about vacuum there, I would say with the covid situation, 191 00:22:47,950 --> 00:22:47,950 but we also want to recognize the success of that not just to the fire department but also to 192 00:22:53,522 --> 00:22:53,522 kroger. New albany normally foundation for helping us underwrite that function. So it 193 00:23:00,496 --> 00:23:00,496 was a great success. A lot of chili and hot dogs, helicopters , fire engines, and it's amazing 194 00:23:06,535 --> 00:23:06,535 how many families coming like that park apartment, so it's a lot of fun for those um we are 195 00:23:11,874 --> 00:23:11,874 in. The process of developing a strategic plan. Um making progress on that. It's really to 196 00:23:21,520 --> 00:23:21,520 assess the call values the growth in the community and the needs for the hard part. Looking 197 00:23:30,059 --> 00:23:30,059 at mutual aid and many, many other factors. And this has been something that we do. I would 198 00:23:37,701 --> 00:23:37,701 say we haven't had one in quite some time. We're about midway through that process in. Once we 199 00:23:43,773 --> 00:23:43,773 have a completed, we'll be sharing that with the community , but also make sure that we 200 00:23:48,344 --> 00:23:48,344 share that city. And I know a number of you came to the kickoff and appreciate your 201 00:23:54,650 --> 00:23:54,650 input to that. So we'll keep continue to update you on our progress there. Um. So this 202 00:24:03,359 --> 00:24:03,359 slide here. I think it's important to point out things. The we've had a number of news. 203 00:24:09,299 --> 00:24:09,299 senior living facilities coming which is outstanding. They're needed. But it's just another 204 00:24:17,440 --> 00:24:17,440 trend. I think you all should be just informed this the amount of emergency calls that we're 205 00:24:21,811 --> 00:24:21,811 making. Um in terms of m s runs , and this kind of shows you from 21,020. That's a year to 206 00:24:30,220 --> 00:24:30,220 date. There. There is a significant need. And response for ams runs and one of the key 207 00:24:38,929 --> 00:24:38,929 issues about that is you're going to get into some of these others. The amount of valium 208 00:24:44,802 --> 00:24:44,802 that we're seeing in terms of, uh, public safety causes significantly increasing in the 209 00:24:49,306 --> 00:24:49,306 greater area. This is just not just the senior homes but excluded the 55. And there's a 210 00:24:55,946 --> 00:24:55,946 lot of ams around there too well. If you look. From 15 4022. You'll see that there's been a 211 00:25:10,794 --> 00:25:10,794 number of runs that are increasing. We have covid impact. Which is kind of 2020 212 00:25:18,268 --> 00:25:18,268 and 19 in that area of 2019. It was kind of the growth here that we're seeing about 2900. Um s 213 00:25:27,378 --> 00:25:27,378 runs for call outs. If you look at 2020 21, you'll see that the numbers were kind of dip down. 214 00:25:35,423 --> 00:25:35,423 you have a lot of people who were working remote, so you don't have a lot of the traffic. 215 00:25:40,591 --> 00:25:40,591 but what we're seeing now you can see this for the months and they got cut off to the left 216 00:25:45,430 --> 00:25:45,430 there. But you'll see that the actual runs per mile as significantly increase. And I 217 00:25:51,536 --> 00:25:51,536 think that's important for us. We're trying to get our heads around again. What do we need to 218 00:25:57,309 --> 00:25:57,309 support the community? Do we need another firehouse? Do we need to be supporting the growth 219 00:26:03,048 --> 00:26:03,048 in the annexation areas because of mutual aid, and what kind of get into that just a little bit 220 00:26:09,654 --> 00:26:09,654 more touched based on that. This is automatic aid staffs and really, what this is showing you 221 00:26:15,793 --> 00:26:15,793 is that we as a public safety provide a lot of what we call mutual. A two different 222 00:26:24,369 --> 00:26:24,369 jurisdictions to columbus to jersey. Mifflin township. And. This is a significant portion. 223 00:26:32,377 --> 00:26:32,377 we're making. It's about 50 to 52% of the runs that we're making are here in new orleans. 224 00:26:42,420 --> 00:26:42,420 the other runs that we're making our support other jurisdictions . So the first thing you're 225 00:26:46,492 --> 00:26:46,492 probably saying as well why should we do that is not a big cause. Well you know, it's part 226 00:26:53,432 --> 00:26:57,336 of the uniqueness of all the public safety fire department. They all supporting jobs. On the flip side. You know, we do support columbus and they are building another fire station, 227 00:27:03,942 --> 00:27:03,942 so some of those runs should come down somewhat. But there are times when we need to quit 228 00:27:09,448 --> 00:27:09,448 fire trucks or ladders out. They'll let us borrow a truck, so there is a unique partnership 229 00:27:14,319 --> 00:27:14,319 inmates. But I think the big takeaway for all of us is that public safety e. M s. Franz are 230 00:27:21,393 --> 00:27:21,393 becoming significant and growing in the area. We're trying to get in front of that. And with 231 00:27:26,953 --> 00:27:26,953 the growth in the city of new orleans and expansion, it's really going to take a 232 00:27:32,291 --> 00:27:32,291 collaborative. Approach and cohesive plan. To make sure that we have the right resources 233 00:27:39,298 --> 00:27:39,298 right places to have the right run times because it's my experts like chief rob and 234 00:27:44,337 --> 00:27:44,337 others tell me um, believe it or not seconds. Can mean somebody's life. So we are a first class 235 00:27:54,280 --> 00:27:54,280 community and doing the right thing. And getting into that an msb output to the right place 236 00:28:00,052 --> 00:28:00,052 right time. It's really important. In the time it is critical. So I want to just to 237 00:28:05,858 --> 00:28:05,858 give you some of those stats. And finally and we'll be talking more updating. A lot of this, 238 00:28:13,866 --> 00:28:17,536 but just to bring some this perspective into what's happening in our public safety for the fire department. Lastly, I wanted to also publicly recognized chief. He'll be 239 00:28:24,911 --> 00:28:24,911 retiring in the first quarter of 2023 is served over 49 years, including 23 years of playing 240 00:28:30,617 --> 00:28:30,617 township. As of january, 22,023 . We're going to invite you to his retirement celebration. But 241 00:28:38,625 --> 00:28:38,625 I would hope that you would please recognizing him tonight with a thank you for all of this 242 00:28:44,163 --> 00:28:44,163 service. The doctor will try to continue to do that first topics that you would like to hear from 243 00:28:57,310 --> 00:28:57,310 us on will be happy. We worked really closely with joe and many members of staff. We thank you 244 00:29:03,049 --> 00:29:03,049 for all your support. Appreciate it if you have any questions for myself. Well, thank you, david. 245 00:29:10,791 --> 00:29:14,394 I really appreciate you coming out tonight and appreciate the strong partnership that we've had with the township. I feel like the dialogue and communication is really 246 00:29:18,865 --> 00:29:18,865 blossomed. Over the last couple of years. We have a clear understanding and appreciation 247 00:29:23,837 --> 00:29:23,837 for the hard work that the township does, and our community is very thankful to have the 248 00:29:29,910 --> 00:29:29,910 fire support and paramedic support when they need it. Um violent township. I'm just 249 00:29:35,415 --> 00:29:35,415 trying to figure out how the heck did pick clinton come all the way up to new albany. Was 250 00:29:40,020 --> 00:29:40,020 this a football game or actually? It runs that we were wrong. Period of time just to be 251 00:29:45,125 --> 00:29:45,125 able to be our protection. No nice turn. The department. Get up. People who find stations on 252 00:30:00,941 --> 00:30:00,941 the cover was here. The collaboration. You know, one of the things is the city's chief 253 00:30:10,551 --> 00:30:10,551 before jen hits me that anyone streaming they can hear you. What would she hit you? Because 254 00:30:19,560 --> 00:30:19,560 I'm next to it things about not that day. Rankin county has been ahead of that. Automatically 255 00:30:27,101 --> 00:30:27,101 concept since the 19 seventies, and the city of columbus is pretty unique for major model 256 00:30:34,175 --> 00:30:34,175 major metropolitan city to participate in the level that they do. Like tragedy, ferguson 257 00:30:40,681 --> 00:30:40,681 said. When our ladder out of service we can call the city of columbus and if they have an 258 00:30:46,287 --> 00:30:49,991 extra latin proper spare ladder , but they say, come to the logistics center and go to station 33 pick it up so that you know that that's something that is invaluable to us in the 259 00:30:55,897 --> 00:30:55,897 means of the automatic gate, and the other thing is about the fire department. Were labor 260 00:31:00,902 --> 00:31:00,902 intensive. We don't do anything by ourselves. You know we have fire in nba said we should have 261 00:31:07,442 --> 00:31:07,442 a minimum of 2000 square foot house of 18 firefighters on the scene. Wow and you look at the 262 00:31:15,450 --> 00:31:15,450 facts were labor intensive. Now you understand why they were intensive. If we have a cardiac 263 00:31:20,188 --> 00:31:20,188 arrest, probably going to have a minimum of five. But instead what? We're going to be doing 264 00:31:26,094 --> 00:31:30,031 some of the same things you see in an emergency department that we take care of it and seen in that. So that's the you know when we talked about manpower trying to project future those 265 00:31:35,236 --> 00:31:35,236 are the things not only two runs do we have to consider about managing. But the manpower that 266 00:31:39,541 --> 00:31:39,541 is associated with the runs and locations in time. Is there like a formula for how this automatic 267 00:31:45,647 --> 00:31:45,647 aid works like? I mean, you just call up whoever you feel like and go ahead, no, actually 268 00:31:51,386 --> 00:31:51,386 available or no, we work is we end up and we actually made major major mileage between 269 00:31:58,261 --> 00:31:58,261 stations of locations. Now there is the ability but we're not there yet to do what's called a 270 00:32:05,901 --> 00:32:05,901 bl, which actually figures distance through the computer they had actually figures of 271 00:32:12,442 --> 00:32:12,442 mileage for more than vehicles that are not worth stations at that's ultimately, you know what 272 00:32:17,379 --> 00:32:17,379 would best serve this area and serve the virgin licking county and the county. And I think 273 00:32:24,086 --> 00:32:24,086 that's coming in the future. But right now, the calculations are based on fixed that in mind. And 274 00:32:31,360 --> 00:32:31,360 one last question when you started that's a firefighter at 12. Um I guess the labor laws 275 00:32:38,968 --> 00:32:38,968 were a little bit more relaxed back then. Absolutely started. 80 41 1973. That's an amazing 276 00:32:48,443 --> 00:32:48,443 career chief again. Thank you so much for everything you've done. I know. I know. I know we've 277 00:32:53,016 --> 00:32:53,016 tackled the best in the past. But you know you came here with the intention of saying a couple 278 00:32:57,920 --> 00:33:01,190 of years and you stayed for a while, and we certainly appreciate it fantastic growth of the party department. The input from the community been very fortunate with the ability 279 00:33:06,796 --> 00:33:06,796 to hire high quality firefighters, so it's made in truly enjoyable and it's going 280 00:33:12,100 --> 00:33:12,100 to be tough. It's I'm ready, but it's going to be also going to be very sad away from so thank 281 00:33:20,042 --> 00:33:20,042 you. Thank you so very much. Thank you, chief. Thank you. I just like to add one thing that 282 00:33:31,821 --> 00:33:31,821 , um I spent a great deal of time with the group and enjoy it a lot. And their strategic plan 283 00:33:38,395 --> 00:33:38,395 and looking at some of the numbers that you see up here for the fire department and the kind 284 00:33:43,133 --> 00:33:43,133 of growth that's going on is a critical factor in their planning and sitting through 285 00:33:48,805 --> 00:33:48,805 their meetings. When you sit there. It's not just a matter of adding another fire truck. Fire 286 00:33:53,777 --> 00:33:53,777 truck takes two years. So that that the direction and timing of planning is very critical now, 287 00:34:01,585 --> 00:34:01,585 as we see it with police vehicles as well to be well ahead of the curve. Because it's 288 00:34:07,791 --> 00:34:07,791 not going down to the street to the local car dealer and getting a truck, so I think it's well 289 00:34:15,199 --> 00:34:15,199 worthwhile with the planning process that they're going through. All right. Well, thank 290 00:34:21,138 --> 00:34:21,138 you again for visiting us tonight. We'll have to return the serve at some point down the 291 00:34:26,209 --> 00:34:26,209 road. Give you guys an update as well, thank you so much. Alright. We're still under 292 00:34:34,018 --> 00:34:34,018 hearing a visitors. So is there anyone else from the public that would like to address council 293 00:34:39,322 --> 00:34:39,322 regarding matter that is not on tonight's agenda. Alright that takes us to board commission 294 00:34:45,329 --> 00:34:45,329 reports and the update from the planning commission. No update just as a reminder this monday, 295 00:34:50,701 --> 00:34:50,701 um hot off the press. The hamlet of sugar run would be presented for the first reading their 296 00:34:56,473 --> 00:34:56,473 first read that presented it planning commission. So for those that are interested and 297 00:35:00,711 --> 00:35:00,711 want to kind of see what that's all about, that will be at monday, seven o'clock right here 298 00:35:05,682 --> 00:35:05,682 in the chamber. Jennifer, can you just make sure that the packet for that meeting it's 299 00:35:10,122 --> 00:35:10,122 email that to everybody like to get like a copy that to actually they have the link on the agenda 300 00:35:17,395 --> 00:35:17,395 that could see that too.

I mean, architectural review board 305 00:35:52,864 --> 00:35:52,864 meeting, zoning appeals had a meeting. It was one case it was a variance to reduce to allow us 306 00:36:02,474 --> 00:36:02,474 swimming pool to be located. 6.6 ft away from the property where it's been 15 ft within 15 ft. 307 00:36:09,447 --> 00:36:09,447 set back. Um it was a really amazing meeting. I would say lots of collaboration between 308 00:36:15,019 --> 00:36:15,019 the homeowners and the board, and, um, during the meeting, the homeowner agreed to move their 309 00:36:21,226 --> 00:36:21,226 pool so they would need less of a setback. And, um, we came to a great result and, um, they went 310 00:36:29,268 --> 00:36:29,268 away happy so and that's it. It was a setback of six ft from their house. They wanted 311 00:36:34,672 --> 00:36:34,672 property line. So um, the change , they move. They sketched the pool over a little bit, and they 312 00:36:41,080 --> 00:36:41,080 needed less. They needed a setback. Located. 3307 ahead of time drive. Oh, that's right. 313 00:36:48,220 --> 00:36:48,220 okay. Yeah, some. Gave this up. There's a full six ft from the housemaid boys jumping off the 314 00:36:56,295 --> 00:36:56,295 roof. They had the neighbors were very supportive of the project because they were 315 00:37:02,067 --> 00:37:02,067 excited about the cool. Yeah well, all the words in the backyard I hope they have a good 316 00:37:08,541 --> 00:37:11,443 skimmer. Alright any more questions on the border zoning, appeals sustainable advisory board meeting. But idea implementation panel. Oh um, we also had a meeting. Well no, we 317 00:37:20,052 --> 00:37:20,052 haven't had a meeting since I didn't have presented at the last minute. Yeah thank you. 318 00:37:26,426 --> 00:37:26,426 alright cemetery restoration advisory board meetings and no meeting of the public records 319 00:37:31,330 --> 00:37:31,330 commission. We do have a meeting coming up next before the next counseling on november 17th. 320 00:37:37,537 --> 00:37:37,537 great correspondence or communication and correspondence communication received from a 321 00:37:42,508 --> 00:37:42,508 member of council they'd like to provide an update on no second reading works is on tonight's 322 00:37:48,581 --> 00:37:48,581 agenda takes us to introduction and first reading of ordinances ordnance oh, 30 to 2022 in order 323 00:37:54,424 --> 00:37:54,424 to accept the expedited type one annexation of 18.14 plus or minus acres from jersey 324 00:37:59,426 --> 00:37:59,426 township, licking county to the city of normally thank you, mayor. This parcel is located on 325 00:38:06,066 --> 00:38:06,066 the south side of jug street between harrison road and make street roughly across the street 326 00:38:11,971 --> 00:38:11,971 from clover valley road. It is, as the title indicates being requested for annexation under 327 00:38:19,912 --> 00:38:19,912 the expedited type one procedure . Um it was approved by linking county on august 9th of this 328 00:38:26,920 --> 00:38:26,920 year. It's subject to pre existing annexation agreement was entered into by the city and 329 00:38:34,694 --> 00:38:34,694 the township in june of 2015. And we expanded our road maintenance agreement with 330 00:38:40,033 --> 00:38:40,033 jersey township in 2021. So that , um uh, obligation has been met as well. The 60 day waiting 331 00:38:49,410 --> 00:38:49,410 period has lapsed, so council is able to take action. Is this the words going to go through the 332 00:38:57,985 --> 00:38:57,985 existing kennel? U s a kennel. So the kennel will the cannibal continue to exist on the site, 333 00:39:05,059 --> 00:39:05,059 but yes, there will be a road extension of clover valley will extend to the south and there's 334 00:39:10,064 --> 00:39:10,064 a couple of others is that where it's going to go to. So we have two other pieces of legislation 335 00:39:15,335 --> 00:39:15,335 that you'll be considering this. All right. Any questions on the ordinance? Well second, we'll 336 00:39:21,374 --> 00:39:21,374 set that for a second reading or meeting on november 15 ordinance . 0 34 2022 orders to amend the 337 00:39:28,883 --> 00:39:28,883 zoning ordinances city new albany by amending the zoning map to rezone 18.3, plus 338 00:39:33,254 --> 00:39:33,254 tremendous acres of land, located at 1 to 5 to five drug street from agricultural ag and 339 00:39:39,226 --> 00:39:39,226 limited general employment. Lg to infill planned unit development you d. Area to be 340 00:39:44,865 --> 00:39:44,865 known as the clover valley zoning district, as required by n. B. J as requested by n. B j 341 00:39:51,672 --> 00:39:51,672 holdings llc care of aaron underhill, mr mayor. Thank you. So this is the same location 342 00:39:58,579 --> 00:39:58,579 that is being annex, the kennel club, usa property and red, plus a small additional piece of land 343 00:40:03,418 --> 00:40:03,418 to the east. Rescue this little triangle. This is currently zoned limited general employment 344 00:40:07,655 --> 00:40:07,655 along with the rest of the property to the east. So this property is being rezoned to p 345 00:40:12,460 --> 00:40:12,460 ut pds allow for flexibility and development regulations and uses in this case, the applicant is 346 00:40:19,233 --> 00:40:19,233 requesting a pd resent until al from a mixture of animal boarding and typical business 347 00:40:24,172 --> 00:40:24,172 park uses like we see other looking county today. And so this is kind of a lot to look 348 00:40:29,911 --> 00:40:29,911 at. But this is the three sub areas. So this is the kennel property here, and this is that 349 00:40:35,050 --> 00:40:35,050 additional square. So some area b, which is the largest sub area within here will retain, uh or 350 00:40:42,591 --> 00:40:42,591 it is where the kennel club usa is located, and the zoning allows for dog boarding uses and 351 00:40:49,697 --> 00:40:49,697 other agricultural uses districts. It provides some additional setback requirements 352 00:40:54,402 --> 00:40:58,373 but otherwise requires the property to follow the general agricultural district development standards. And the remaining two sub areas, which is a to the south. I'm sorry a 353 00:41:04,813 --> 00:41:04,813 to the south and see to the north. This follows the same standard uses and development 354 00:41:10,552 --> 00:41:10,552 standards as the surrounding limited general employment districts to the west. As west 355 00:41:15,924 --> 00:41:15,924 east and south actually and so this allows for office, data centers, warehouse and 356 00:41:23,231 --> 00:41:23,231 distribution, manufacturing and production and research and research and production uses. It 357 00:41:30,105 --> 00:41:30,105 matches the architectural building height at 65 ft. Set back and rooftop screening 358 00:41:36,378 --> 00:41:36,378 requirements as the surrounding algae uses and some berries. See also has a clause that allows 359 00:41:44,153 --> 00:41:44,153 for the extensions with accommodates the extension of clover valley road. So this line 360 00:41:49,658 --> 00:41:49,658 here this area boundary is actually the line of the road will follow until it goes down 361 00:41:54,464 --> 00:41:54,464 to ming streets. And so there's a little portion of this lg property was included, and 362 00:41:59,068 --> 00:41:59,068 that's why differs an acreage from the annexation owner tool out for consistent use along 363 00:42:05,574 --> 00:42:09,178 this frontage. Otherwise there'd be sort of a little gap here where this property of fronts the future clover valley extension. The property is highlighted in red here on the 364 00:42:16,952 --> 00:42:16,952 new albany strategic plans. Future land use math, so this rezoning allows for the 365 00:42:21,957 --> 00:42:21,957 continued operation of the kennel club usa business that accommodates the clover valley 366 00:42:27,096 --> 00:42:27,096 road extension and expands the new albany business park proposal matches the 367 00:42:31,801 --> 00:42:31,801 recommendations of the engaged new albany strategic plan. Uh huh. And the city planning 368 00:42:37,073 --> 00:42:40,810 commission reviewed and recommended approval. Um, in september, I believe happy to answer any questions. Yes sir. The road the extension. Will that be a three lane road with 369 00:42:49,052 --> 00:42:49,052 attorney lane? Yes, that's correct. Ok, won't be a you won't have a meeting in the 370 00:42:56,159 --> 00:42:56,159 middle with just the three like three lanes through their meeting, okay? Thank you. Hey 371 00:43:02,332 --> 00:43:02,332 stephen, just as a reminder when we looked at the sub area, a I know that doesn't currently have 372 00:43:08,638 --> 00:43:08,638 any access to it. Um based off of this legislation, but I think on the picture that we're just 373 00:43:15,479 --> 00:43:15,479 looking at there is a is a proposed road that will eventually go and connect to the 374 00:43:20,483 --> 00:43:20,483 sub area. Correct. So I believe it's the same property for sudbury, a and his property to 375 00:43:26,524 --> 00:43:26,524 the east. It's the intent of the developer to combine these parcels so that it will have 376 00:43:30,994 --> 00:43:30,994 frontage and actually, the text requires that the development all within this area connect 377 00:43:38,234 --> 00:43:38,234 onto clover valley road for access, so there's no in order to minimize per cuts along jug 378 00:43:43,874 --> 00:43:43,874 street and main street. Okay thank you. That's what. Alright. Any additional questions? And 379 00:43:58,790 --> 00:43:58,790 we'll set that ordinance for second reading or public hearing and public hearing on november 380 00:44:03,594 --> 00:44:03,594 15th. Ordinance 0 35 2022 in order to amend the code of ordinances city of new albany, 381 00:44:11,069 --> 00:44:11,069 ohio, to provide amendments to general offenses. Albany city code sections 549.1 hour. 382 00:44:17,007 --> 00:44:17,007 549.11549 point. Oh 4549.2545 point 3517 point. Oh, eight. 531 point oh one to provide for 383 00:44:28,185 --> 00:44:28,185 penalties to provide for qualification to provide for severability to repeal 384 00:44:32,423 --> 00:44:32,423 conflicting ordinances and providing effective date. And for other purposes. Ben sure. 385 00:44:39,530 --> 00:44:39,530 thanks mr mayor. As you can see in your packet. There's extensive legislation to amend 386 00:44:45,136 --> 00:44:45,136 certain provisions within the city's qualified ordinances. Uh these changes are made to 387 00:44:50,442 --> 00:44:50,442 reflect amendments that have been made by the state legislature to the revised code 388 00:44:54,746 --> 00:44:54,746 . Since the last updates were done, I think in november 2020 these updates are done 389 00:44:59,884 --> 00:44:59,884 periodically. Um they were put together and recommended by unicode, which is the city's 390 00:45:05,123 --> 00:45:05,123 qualifier, and they did as an aside a nice job, tracking all the changes and making all the 391 00:45:09,597 --> 00:45:09,597 updates. There's numerous changes throughout the general offenses, but I guess I'll just 392 00:45:15,867 --> 00:45:15,867 hit upon some of the highlights for now and tried to list some of the highlights in the 393 00:45:22,541 --> 00:45:22,541 materials for you, but the some of the big ones are that 5 49 10 been revised. To add further 394 00:45:31,182 --> 00:45:31,182 language or definition about who may carry a firearm within a school zone, a school safety 395 00:45:37,555 --> 00:45:37,555 zone, and it puts restrictions that they have to have the appropriate training approved by 396 00:45:42,027 --> 00:45:42,027 basic peace officer training or otherwise, as a law enforcement officer. They have to be 397 00:45:46,064 --> 00:45:46,064 authorized by the board. And subject to annual background checks, and the board has to 398 00:45:51,170 --> 00:45:55,073 have notified the public. So there are certain procedures in place and protocols in place for that. There were numerous changes to the concealed carry provisions as a result of some 399 00:46:01,247 --> 00:46:01,247 of the constitutional carrier permit. Let's carry regulations that were passed. I guess of 400 00:46:06,518 --> 00:46:06,518 note would be that if someone has stopped, they no longer have to probably notify the law 401 00:46:11,022 --> 00:46:14,994 enforcement officer that they're carrying a concealed weapon. However, they do have to disclose a law enforcement officer asks them and there are certain exceptions and 402 00:46:20,165 --> 00:46:20,165 provisions in place for certain military personnel. So there's numerous changes related to the 403 00:46:25,270 --> 00:46:25,270 concealed carry provisions. Modifications regarding. Felony provisions that have someone 404 00:46:33,279 --> 00:46:33,279 steals a temporary license or temporary tag or something along those lines, adjusting what the 405 00:46:39,551 --> 00:46:39,551 penalty is for that clarifications about who is a able to hold a chair. But 406 00:46:44,923 --> 00:46:44,923 charitable raffle and or bingo event without a license, so that's an additional information 407 00:46:50,829 --> 00:46:50,829 in there and then lastly, as noted, clarify, clarifies the definition of hashish or delta 408 00:46:58,337 --> 00:46:58,337 nine. Tetra hydro cannabinoid all is horrible intoxicant. But those are some of the big 409 00:47:05,945 --> 00:47:09,415 changes to the, um codified ordinance to the general offenses. So many questions. I'm happy to answer otherwise. You can breathe them in the package. Question. Chief chief uh, do you 410 00:47:14,921 --> 00:47:14,921 feel that do you feel it's gonna have an impact on your operations in terms of the 411 00:47:24,464 --> 00:47:24,464 consultant carriers or any additional training or is that concern you in any way that that 412 00:47:29,235 --> 00:47:29,235 law has changed? The training wise were always training to the new changes in laws and changing 413 00:47:36,976 --> 00:47:36,976 the best practices. So we we've already made adjustments to the way we train of the firearms. 414 00:47:42,149 --> 00:47:42,149 when it comes to firearms. We haven't had under the old ccw law. We haven't had a lot of 415 00:47:49,189 --> 00:47:49,189 issues. I don't think statewide, there's been a ton as far as the when it was permitted. Um I 416 00:47:54,861 --> 00:47:54,861 think the issues that we've had with guns are really really aren't tied to what the law with 417 00:48:01,267 --> 00:48:01,267 the laws change, so I don't expect that there will be a significant change in that. I 418 00:48:06,840 --> 00:48:06,840 think the problems that we have guns with guns, um, will remain similar to what we've seen in 419 00:48:12,145 --> 00:48:12,145 the past and not really relevant changes made. Thanks. Better. If the city does not if we don't 420 00:48:22,188 --> 00:48:22,188 modify our city code to match or see what risk is the city. Add if we don't do this 421 00:48:29,796 --> 00:48:29,796 periodically. I would say it depends. I guess it would depend upon what the issue would be 422 00:48:35,936 --> 00:48:35,936 some of the issues with firearms adjustments. Um certainly, there are provisions in the 423 00:48:42,176 --> 00:48:42,176 caramelized code that limit its power. These are ability to have something different than what 424 00:48:47,180 --> 00:48:47,180 the state puts out there. So that could. Create some issues that challenged. Uh some of the 425 00:48:54,455 --> 00:48:54,455 other provisions if you don't modify it to mere the o r c. I think it probably makes it more 426 00:49:00,595 --> 00:49:00,595 difficult on the police force and enforcing the laws and creating some of those issues. I 427 00:49:05,966 --> 00:49:05,966 think that's one of the big reasons to make the adjustments is so that there is some 428 00:49:10,290 --> 00:49:10,290 consistency and so it makes it easier on them to do their jobs. Thanks, ben. Very good 429 00:49:15,643 --> 00:49:15,643 questions. Anything else? We'll set that for second reading and public hearing in our meeting on 430 00:49:24,218 --> 00:49:24,218 november 15th. Ordinance 36 2022 in order to amend the code of ordinances city of new albany, 431 00:49:31,292 --> 00:49:31,292 ohio, to provide amendments to traffic. New albany city code sections. I have some water 432 00:49:37,064 --> 00:49:37,064 there. This is going to take a break and come back when you get through these. You gotta alright 433 00:49:43,938 --> 00:49:43,938 33 1.37373 point oh, 3331.29333e oh, 371.7303. 6331.27373 point. Four 331.24331 point 23331.1233 434 00:50:07,963 --> 00:50:07,963 point 5331.31. 333.123331 point 7331.263. Point. Oh, 5333.31. Point 13331.14. 331.16331 point 435 00:50:27,316 --> 00:50:27,316 17331.1833 point 19. 331.2331 point 22331.43. 33. Point oh, 3333.4. 335 point oh 233335. 436 00:50:46,468 --> 00:50:46,468 point. Oh, 27. 335 point. Oh 93 through 7.163 through 9.7371. Oh, 1373.1. Oh, to provide for 437 00:51:00,649 --> 00:51:00,649 penalties to provide for clarification to provide first ever ability to repeal 438 00:51:05,054 --> 00:51:05,054 conflicting ordinances to provide an effective date and for other purposes. Ben. Mhm 439 00:51:10,425 --> 00:51:10,425 taken away. Now that everyone's awake. I feel like there's a winning powerball number in 440 00:51:15,031 --> 00:51:15,031 there somewhere so back through that try to make sense. You just said so, uh, a lot of threes 441 00:51:22,438 --> 00:51:22,438 anyway. So yeah. So similar to the general offenses there have been some updates to the code is 442 00:51:29,077 --> 00:51:29,077 related to various traffic provisions. And as you can see, from the reading of all the 443 00:51:33,916 --> 00:51:33,916 provisions impacted. There's a lot there so I won't bore everyone would going through 444 00:51:39,856 --> 00:51:39,856 each of the ones I just hit on again. Some of the ones that I've found to be highlights or 445 00:51:45,294 --> 00:51:45,294 to be interesting. For example, there are numerous statute that ad while distracted and the 446 00:51:50,700 --> 00:51:50,700 distractions that contributing factor to an incident to allow for an additional penalty. 447 00:51:55,938 --> 00:51:55,938 provide awaiting the code and some of those funds situations that come up with if someone's 448 00:52:01,744 --> 00:52:01,744 driving on the sidewalk street lawn or curb if they're attaching a bike motorcycle. 449 00:52:07,984 --> 00:52:07,984 motorcycle coast or roller skates led skateboard to any vehicle. They're driving through 450 00:52:13,089 --> 00:52:13,089 safety zones, obstructing an intersection or a crossroad. If they're failing to give the 451 00:52:18,494 --> 00:52:18,494 appropriate hand signals, not any type of hand signal one way street or a traffic circle. A 452 00:52:25,101 --> 00:52:25,101 funeral procession doing a u turn where they're prohibited. Or driving through streets that 453 00:52:30,507 --> 00:52:30,507 are closed for repair. There can be an additional penalty for that, if they're found to be 454 00:52:36,713 --> 00:52:40,284 distracted, and the distraction is a contributing factor. Additionally there are some updates about where electric bicycles should be written. Um and if they're what? What what 455 00:52:49,096 --> 00:52:49,096 can happen and that there have the motor on her. Not so that's something to look into. Again. 456 00:52:54,130 --> 00:52:54,130 there's new language prohibiting attaching or grabbing onto certain motorized vehicles while 457 00:53:00,771 --> 00:53:00,771 you're on your electric bicycles , so fight that urge while you're out there, but there's 458 00:53:05,008 --> 00:53:05,008 enough changes out there with that. Um there's additional provisions in there now that 459 00:53:11,215 --> 00:53:11,215 waste collection vehicles are added to the list of vehicles that someone has to give 460 00:53:17,888 --> 00:53:17,888 appropriate space when they're passing and moving around so long as the waste collection 461 00:53:22,626 --> 00:53:22,626 vehicles flashing their lights, so they have to take the necessary precautions with that. 462 00:53:27,865 --> 00:53:27,865 uh defines earphones. Earplugs uh, and how those apply and limits. It makes the penalty 463 00:53:36,240 --> 00:53:36,240 that if someone's driving with your phones and earplugs in both ears, so that's something that's 464 00:53:40,877 --> 00:53:40,877 out there now. Um lastly, um, not going to cover too much else. Ah because I think we've 465 00:53:50,321 --> 00:53:50,321 covered most of those. But if you have any questions or anything that's come up that you 466 00:53:54,659 --> 00:53:54,659 want to ask about. I'm happy to take them, but otherwise they're pretty straightforward. May need 467 00:54:03,501 --> 00:54:03,501 a little bit more of an update on electric bikes qualifies as much biking. Council member 468 00:54:09,139 --> 00:54:09,139 fellows had a good point. Like where? Where is the line screen of moped and electric bike and 469 00:54:14,578 --> 00:54:14,578 motorcycle? Okay. I mean, I am and what goes on what surface and where these guys on electric 470 00:54:18,983 --> 00:54:18,983 bikes. Some are moving pretty good. And then what point does it become a motorcycle? You need 471 00:54:24,188 --> 00:54:24,188 that helmet, licensed lights. Yeah and I'm not sure that they give too much description other 472 00:54:32,130 --> 00:54:36,000 than the reference I think represents an electric bicycle without the motor is not engaged , so there's not a whole lot more to it other than it's a bicycle that has the electric 473 00:54:41,710 --> 00:54:41,710 motorized component to that, so, um, that would exclude scooters and hoverboards and right, 474 00:54:49,214 --> 00:54:49,214 because I think that would fall within the definition of for electric bicycle electric 475 00:54:53,251 --> 00:54:53,251 bicycle, so it's going to be more of the electorate by supporters. Bicycles have those 476 00:54:57,790 --> 00:54:57,790 components to them now and um, where they try and all that fun stuff. Okay? Well, chief talked 477 00:55:07,265 --> 00:55:07,265 about training. I mean, that's a lot of that's a lot of new ordinances. Get your hands 478 00:55:12,337 --> 00:55:12,337 wrapped around. Alright any other questions regarding the ordinance? We'll go ahead and 479 00:55:19,544 --> 00:55:23,415 set that for second reading and public hearing of our meeting on november 15th.

The tiff district is classified as non school, which 499 00:57:28,441 --> 00:57:32,345 means that it does not negatively impact the johnstown monroe local school district or the career and technology education centers of licking county. Furthermore um the city 500 00:57:37,518 --> 00:57:41,354 has entered into supplemental agreements with jersey township regarding the funding of fire and ems services. I can answer any questions that you have this evening or this ordinance can be 501 00:57:46,226 --> 00:57:46,226 set for second reading. Any questions? And we'll set that for a second reading in public 502 00:57:57,238 --> 00:57:57,238 hearing at our meeting another 15th just make sure we're ordinance 30. It's next, right? 503 00:58:01,341 --> 00:58:01,341 yes. Or new south 38 2022 accordance to approve the final plan and accept right away 504 00:58:07,581 --> 00:58:11,351 dedication for clever valley road extension as requested by the city of new orleans. Mr mayor. Thank you. So the right of way that is, including this plan as outlined in red, so this 505 00:58:20,995 --> 00:58:20,995 is the same property that was have first reading for annexation and rezoning earlier 506 00:58:25,633 --> 00:58:25,633 tonight, so this is right of way for the extension of clover valley from where it currently 507 00:58:31,038 --> 00:58:31,038 terminates on jug down to mink. So this area is a total of 3432 linear feats. And total 6.95 508 00:58:40,615 --> 00:58:40,615 acres. It is. This dedication is recommended, and the as a future connection and engage new albany 509 00:58:50,425 --> 00:58:50,425 strategic plan. The plant dedicates 80 ft of right of way. There's currently 25 ft utility 510 00:58:56,598 --> 00:58:56,598 easements on each side that have where recorded via separate instrument. So those totals 130 511 00:59:02,003 --> 00:59:02,003 ft of street and utility improvement area. This meeting actually exceeds the strategic 512 00:59:07,542 --> 00:59:07,542 plans recommendation of 115 ft. The planning commission reviewed and recommended approval of this 513 00:59:13,915 --> 00:59:13,915 I believe two months ago at their meeting, happy to answer any questions about this one. So 514 00:59:22,357 --> 00:59:22,357 how was the kennel property and exeter? Facility. Just going back there right there. That 515 00:59:27,529 --> 00:59:27,529 helps you. Yeah that's a really good question, so the text believe requires them to connect 516 00:59:34,502 --> 00:59:34,502 off of the new clover valley extension here. So there dr will just be turned. I'm not sure 517 00:59:40,509 --> 00:59:40,509 where I don't know. It's been determined yet, but they will have to have a connection off of 518 00:59:45,046 --> 00:59:45,046 clover valley extension. Will they be able to keep their pond that's sitting there. Upon right 519 00:59:49,250 --> 00:59:49,250 there to this one right here. I think it's leave. The pond is going to be relocated, so 520 00:59:56,992 --> 00:59:56,992 they'll still have a pond. Okay, but you're gonna have to move the pot. Yep. My dog goes there, 521 01:00:03,065 --> 01:00:03,065 so I'm concerned, so that's mine . Goodnight might have. So would that be a right right in and 522 01:00:13,442 --> 01:00:13,442 right out only or um no and. To their property. If I'm accident, can I turn north? Yes, okay. All 523 01:00:23,852 --> 01:00:23,852 right. Further questions. All right. We'll go ahead and set that for a second reading in 524 01:00:35,865 --> 01:00:35,865 public hearing in our meeting in number 15th. Takes us to resolutions resolution are 36 525 01:00:42,237 --> 01:00:42,237 2022 resolution authorizing the city manager to enter to a cooperative intergovernmental 526 01:00:47,443 --> 01:00:47,443 agreement with the board of looking county commissioners, the board of georgie township 527 01:00:51,513 --> 01:00:51,513 trustees and the board of monroe township trustees for street and road improvements, construction 528 01:00:56,786 --> 01:00:56,786 , maintenance and annexation of portions of mink street. Clover valley road and green chapel 529 01:01:01,757 --> 01:01:01,757 road, described thank you. The improvements that you mentioned are part of phase one road 530 01:01:08,765 --> 01:01:08,765 infrastructure projects that were funded to support the first phase of intel. The 531 01:01:13,069 --> 01:01:13,069 jurisdictional boundaries of these roads vary between four public entities and in some 532 01:01:19,108 --> 01:01:19,108 cases, where even trying to track down documentation of where right away or highway 533 01:01:24,414 --> 01:01:24,414 easement exists at all. Um, so it's been a really interesting project one that's been kind of 534 01:01:30,419 --> 01:01:34,023 fun to because sitting with the looking county engineering pulling up all of the old archives of property owners and going back through the records has been something that we've 535 01:01:38,728 --> 01:01:38,728 enjoyed being a part of this agreement authorizes the city manager to work cooperatively 536 01:01:43,700 --> 01:01:43,700 with looking county, monroe township in jersey township to facilitate the improvements of 537 01:01:48,204 --> 01:01:48,204 these roads. Additionally the agreement memorializes the road maintenance commitments that 538 01:01:52,843 --> 01:01:52,843 were already existing in the annexation agreements and as a requirement of annexation at the 539 01:01:57,747 --> 01:01:57,747 time that that happened but it just puts them all in one place. They're easy for everybody to 540 01:02:03,486 --> 01:02:05,989 reference and we can work together, moving forward. I can't answer any questions that you have. Any questions, counselor.

We will not be seeing the girls golf team this 548 01:03:04,715 --> 01:03:04,715 year, four straight state titles . Oh they finished third in the state. It was a super tight, I 549 01:03:11,322 --> 01:03:11,322 think going into the back nine of the second day that three teams within one stroke so super 550 01:03:16,160 --> 01:03:16,160 close, uh, centerville got the title, but we got third overall and me and him and his 551 01:03:21,899 --> 01:03:21,899 disappointment got fourth individually, so it's a young squad and I think we'll be 552 01:03:26,938 --> 01:03:26,938 seeing them back here shortly, but streak of four straight state titles with snap this year 553 01:03:33,945 --> 01:03:33,945 .

And that's all I got. All right. Anything from the township. We've got a pretty 557 01:04:03,575 --> 01:04:03,575 comprehensive don't think I can do more than they did. Alright. That takes us report of city 558 01:04:10,949 --> 01:04:10,949 officials, um, from the mayor. Just thank you to the police department service department 559 01:04:15,754 --> 01:04:15,754 for another great trick or treat.

So thanks 562 01:04:34,739 --> 01:04:34,739 to the police department for your help and guidance.

Is that alright by 565 01:04:54,058 --> 01:04:54,058 everyone so I will be part of the department. No. All right, and also the last reminder that 566 01:04:59,965 --> 01:04:59,965 our budget meeting mostly budget workshop is going to be happening. November 10th 9 a.m. 567 01:05:04,970 --> 01:05:04,970 public service. See you there. Food provided and snacks per usual man trying to think I had 568 01:05:13,412 --> 01:05:13,412 one other thing. I got all my delta rewards rtp some good. Okay? Any update from the 569 01:05:18,518 --> 01:05:18,518 finance director. So you have a 22,023 annual budget program in front of you. This is the draft 570 01:05:31,363 --> 01:05:31,363 the budget we did not if you noticed we did not have the first reading of the preparation 571 01:05:36,102 --> 01:05:36,102 ordinance tonight, and it's just required that it's included with the budget. When I give it to 572 01:05:42,407 --> 01:05:42,407 you the first meeting we will have the first reading on the 15th. Um I do have a few 573 01:05:47,213 --> 01:05:47,213 sections to add in the back of this budget. Uh dependencies and debt. I will be putting those in 574 01:05:53,686 --> 01:05:53,686 your boxes. To include by the end of the week, so you have those as well but offered always 575 01:06:01,494 --> 01:06:01,494 stands. I know we have the workshop coming up next week. But the offer always stands. If 576 01:06:06,332 --> 01:06:06,332 you want to meet one on one or have questions in the meantime, please feel free to reach out to 577 01:06:12,739 --> 01:06:12,739 me. And I'd be happy to answer any questions. You know that we've slaved over some of these 578 01:06:18,411 --> 01:06:18,411 numbers to make sure that they're good for you guys, so I'm pretty excited to be able to 579 01:06:23,316 --> 01:06:23,316 present that next week for you. So that is the budget. I also handed out the september finance 580 01:06:30,156 --> 01:06:30,156 report for this year. On the first page, where we're looking at our revenue and expenses in 581 01:06:40,500 --> 01:06:40,500 the general fund. You can see that our revenues are exceeding our budget at the top. We're 582 01:06:47,908 --> 01:06:47,908 standing pretty steady with our income tax receipts with last year, which is something that we 583 01:06:53,914 --> 01:06:53,914 did not anticipate, as we've talked about our expenses. If you look at those they are 584 01:07:00,253 --> 01:07:00,253 increasing. Um we are about $2 million more than last year, which is to be expected. With 585 01:07:08,395 --> 01:07:08,395 our increases in personnel. If you look down at the third section down there, um it talks 586 01:07:15,802 --> 01:07:15,802 about the personal services and then also operating and contractual services all the way 587 01:07:20,107 --> 01:07:20,107 to the right issues. You the difference. At the very bottom. It is detailing our income tax 588 01:07:26,347 --> 01:07:26,347 breakdown. Again very consistent with last year, which is that a happy surprise to us going into 589 01:07:34,587 --> 01:07:34,587 budget season to be able to evaluate that? Three quarters of the way through the year. Our 590 01:07:42,563 --> 01:07:42,563 budget for expenditures, although it has increased, we're only spending about 54% of what 591 01:07:48,969 --> 01:07:48,969 we've budgeted, so I think we're still in pretty good shape. Mhm the second page. This is 592 01:07:57,177 --> 01:07:57,177 something that lists out all of the fun balance is something that I wanted to bring your 593 01:08:02,416 --> 01:08:02,416 attention to was the encumbrance column. If you looked at I know it's very tiny, which column 594 01:08:10,058 --> 01:08:10,058 encumbrance column so I wanted to explain this a little bit. The encumbrance column is 595 01:08:15,797 --> 01:08:15,797 anything that we have as far as open purchase orders and active projects. So if you look at that 596 01:08:24,939 --> 01:08:24,939 we are about $46.8 million involved in active project and open purchase orders, so there's 597 01:08:35,316 --> 01:08:35,316 a lot going on with new opening. Those particular purchasers are spread throughout the different 598 01:08:41,422 --> 01:08:41,422 funds that we have, whether it be general fund or capital projects. But that's something 599 01:08:47,862 --> 01:08:47,862 that you can always take a look at to see what's going on within. Um the city and where 600 01:08:56,171 --> 01:08:56,171 the money and how much money we're on the hook for, I guess franchise. The 3rd and 4th pages 601 01:09:04,913 --> 01:09:04,913 . Just details are investments. And. Investments are looking a lot better than they did last 602 01:09:14,623 --> 01:09:14,623 year. The rate for our and I'm looking at the last page for our normal custodian account. So 603 01:09:25,801 --> 01:09:25,801 this is where all of our um, most of our general funds. That are not the infrastructure 604 01:09:34,410 --> 01:09:34,410 replacement fun. They are not. And star ohio. And they are not. The state infrastructure fund, 605 01:09:44,719 --> 01:09:44,719 so the very top is our general custodian account, so that's where most of those investments 606 01:09:52,494 --> 01:09:52,494 are, and we're sitting at about a 1.4 average yield, which is not, which is our interest rate, 607 01:09:59,202 --> 01:09:59,202 which is. A lot more than it was last year. Looking good. I think that is all I have any 608 01:10:09,045 --> 01:10:09,045 questions? Anderson blessing and curse of interest rates going up and down, right? Some good some 609 01:10:17,687 --> 01:10:17,687 bad, right? We'll talk about that budget. Alright in the update from city manager report 610 01:10:23,426 --> 01:10:23,426 . City attorney no update paul for public comment. Anyone from the public like to address 611 01:10:30,333 --> 01:10:33,536 council regarding a matter that we have discussed on tonight's agenda. Pull for council comments and the additional counsel comments. I had just one comment. And I think it was last 612 01:10:40,376 --> 01:10:40,376 monday. I experienced one of the most thrilling, exciting things that I've experienced in the 613 01:10:44,681 --> 01:10:44,681 city of new orleans. Since I've at least been on council, at least in the last six or seven 614 01:10:51,687 --> 01:10:51,687 years as I was driving down main street in front of village hall . I looked up to see that yes, 615 01:10:58,594 --> 01:10:58,594 this is good. I knew exactly where this was going. Little things that thrill you chip 616 01:11:03,032 --> 01:11:03,032 faded. Yeah I mean, it's what you didn't see. Could not believe it. I really thought I 617 01:11:08,838 --> 01:11:08,838 was. There's something wrong with my eyes here for a moment and I put my glasses on, and I 618 01:11:13,877 --> 01:11:13,877 looked up again and I did not see any telephone wires or telephone poles, and it looks so 619 01:11:19,616 --> 01:11:23,586 much better. The difference that it makes when you don't have electrical lines hanging up there makes such a difference. In the city in terms of the aesthetic, so like did you cut 620 01:11:31,627 --> 01:11:31,627 him down yourself? You wouldn't took an accent. I think I'm about $60 million worth of 621 01:11:37,601 --> 01:11:37,601 infrastructure projects into my career here, but that will go down as my greatest achievement 622 01:11:43,373 --> 01:11:43,373 ever. So yes, yes. That's probably the hardest job you ever did did chop down that 623 01:11:49,045 --> 01:11:49,045 shirt. I had one comment to not about the polls, although it's very thrilling, um, listening to 624 01:11:57,721 --> 01:11:57,721 the presentation earlier today in the comment about the cemetery veterans read program. 625 01:12:03,393 --> 01:12:03,393 and with veterans, they coming up. Uh I think with for $15 a read it would be who the city to 626 01:12:12,603 --> 01:12:12,603 identify some number that we would fund for the veterans. I don't know what the township is 627 01:12:17,441 --> 01:12:17,441 going to do. But it seems to me for $15 if we can put a wreath on veterans great, it's well 628 01:12:23,881 --> 01:12:23,881 worth it. And it's 100 wreaths for $1500 or whatever. I don't know what the number is. I don't 629 01:12:33,056 --> 01:12:33,056 know. Many wreaths are there if it takes a motion or something for us to spend and buy 100 or 630 01:12:40,131 --> 01:12:40,131 200 reefs. I think it's well didn't I should have asked that of trustee ferguson exactly the 631 01:12:45,502 --> 01:12:45,502 time frame for this project, said holidays and I don't know the holiday season. It sounds 632 01:12:51,575 --> 01:12:51,575 like they have a program. They wanted information from the ground, you know, know that the 633 01:12:58,148 --> 01:12:58,148 they are planning on placing the wreaths on december 17th. Okay, so sometimes ordering would need 634 01:13:04,856 --> 01:13:04,856 to be certainly before that. All right, however, that we can figure out think that would be 635 01:13:10,862 --> 01:13:10,862 finding out whether its staff or whatever, how we might do that. Maybe uh, the next township 636 01:13:16,968 --> 01:13:16,968 meeting my drill down and see what? What they're planning tomorrow we can definitely 637 01:13:22,940 --> 01:13:22,940 planning is I think they definitely support collaborating with yahoo gestion agree. 638 01:13:29,247 --> 01:13:29,247 alright, any other council comment?
