The 410 01:31:02,480 --> 01:31:06,719 concrete um road helped out there. It 411 01:31:05,679 --> 01:31:08,800 would have been black top might have 412 01:31:06,719 --> 01:31:10,960 been a little bit sketchier, but it did 413 01:31:08,800 --> 01:31:13,040 hold in there. So, uh again, it's moving 414 01:31:10,960 --> 01:31:15,679 along. Still on schedule for the end of 415 01:31:13,040 --> 01:31:19,760 September to be done after speaking with 416 01:31:15,679 --> 01:31:21,760 uh them last week. Uh, Franklin Square. 417 01:31:19,760 --> 01:31:23,679 Uh, still just waiting on the black top 418 01:31:21,760 --> 01:31:25,199 crew to come in and make those final 419 01:31:23,679 --> 01:31:27,520 changes and the repairs that they need 420 01:31:25,199 --> 01:31:30,000 to make there. The that little rib that 421 01:31:27,520 --> 01:31:31,040 they have right there around Allen Lane 422 01:31:30,000 --> 01:31:33,679 right there. So, they got to get that 423 01:31:31,040 --> 01:31:36,080 fixed. Um, Second Street water line over 424 01:31:33,679 --> 01:31:37,199 here on the northeast, the 100 200 block 425 01:31:36,080 --> 01:31:38,960 that should be done by the end of the 426 01:31:37,199 --> 01:31:40,560 week. So, you'll be able to use that 427 01:31:38,960 --> 01:31:42,000 road. I know half of it's been closed 428 01:31:40,560 --> 01:31:44,000 off biggest part of the last couple 429 01:31:42,000 --> 01:31:46,480 months, but that should be wrapping up. 430 01:31:44,000 --> 01:31:48,239 Um like you say by the end of this week 431 01:31:46,480 --> 01:31:50,960 we'll start to pave that ditch. We'll be 432 01:31:48,239 --> 01:31:53,040 waiting on um Newton asphalt to come in. 433 01:31:50,960 --> 01:31:55,520 So but other than that the road will be 434 01:31:53,040 --> 01:31:59,120 done as or the the road will be open by 435 01:31:55,520 --> 01:32:02,719 the end of this week. Um also on the KSU 436 01:31:59,120 --> 01:32:05,360 connector trail we did meet with um ODOT 437 01:32:02,719 --> 01:32:08,719 officials walked it again. All the curb 438 01:32:05,360 --> 01:32:11,440 strip reclamation work has been uh done 439 01:32:08,719 --> 01:32:13,360 to our satisfaction. So that's all done. 440 01:32:11,440 --> 01:32:15,360 We're still working through a few low 441 01:32:13,360 --> 01:32:18,000 spots in there, have them come back in 442 01:32:15,360 --> 01:32:20,639 and grind in. Um, 443 01:32:18,000 --> 01:32:23,360 they did shoot all the catch basins. 444 01:32:20,639 --> 01:32:25,280 They're all within that ratio, the 445 01:32:23,360 --> 01:32:26,639 tolerance there. So, it's in the way 446 01:32:25,280 --> 01:32:28,960 it's supposed to be, but we're still 447 01:32:26,639 --> 01:32:30,560 trying to work through that. Um, I 448 01:32:28,960 --> 01:32:31,760 believe we'll be able to work on a 449 01:32:30,560 --> 01:32:34,639 couple of them. I don't know if we'll be 450 01:32:31,760 --> 01:32:36,560 able to do anything that I'm 100% going 451 01:32:34,639 --> 01:32:38,400 to be happy with, but again, there's 452 01:32:36,560 --> 01:32:40,159 some things on there that are low on one 453 01:32:38,400 --> 01:32:41,840 side. And I went back through Google 454 01:32:40,159 --> 01:32:44,719 Earth. there was water laying in some of 455 01:32:41,840 --> 01:32:46,239 those areas prior to it. So, there was 456 01:32:44,719 --> 01:32:48,000 some of these areas already had water 457 01:32:46,239 --> 01:32:51,760 there. That's just doing the same thing 458 01:32:48,000 --> 01:32:53,120 there. Um, also the park pool, if 459 01:32:51,760 --> 01:32:56,000 anybody's 460 01:32:53,120 --> 01:32:58,719 » Uh known about that, the uh chlorinator 461 01:32:56,000 --> 01:32:59,600 pump had went out on Friday. Thought we 462 01:32:58,719 --> 01:33:01,840 was going to be able to get up and 463 01:32:59,600 --> 01:33:03,840 going. It's been closed. Uh pool's been 464 01:33:01,840 --> 01:33:07,679 closed until then and since then, I'm 465 01:33:03,840 --> 01:33:10,239 sorry. and uh looking for repairs to be 466 01:33:07,679 --> 01:33:12,480 done tomorrow and then by the time we 467 01:33:10,239 --> 01:33:16,000 get the chlorine back in there, get it 468 01:33:12,480 --> 01:33:18,880 acclimated. We're hoping by Friday uh 469 01:33:16,000 --> 01:33:20,639 that we can open that back up. So, it's 470 01:33:18,880 --> 01:33:22,000 been a trying year for the part pool, 471 01:33:20,639 --> 01:33:25,440 you know, a couple times there had to 472 01:33:22,000 --> 01:33:30,960 close down, but um that pump there, 473 01:33:25,440 --> 01:33:33,120 Victorian pump, uh is uh 27 years old. 474 01:33:30,960 --> 01:33:35,280 Life expectancy for those are about 20 475 01:33:33,120 --> 01:33:36,960 years. So, we got our money was worth 476 01:33:35,280 --> 01:33:39,920 out of that, but now it's leaving us to 477 01:33:36,960 --> 01:33:42,800 where to get it. Um, 478 01:33:39,920 --> 01:33:45,679 the price we received last week was 479 01:33:42,800 --> 01:33:47,520 right around $12,000 for a new pump. So, 480 01:33:45,679 --> 01:33:49,920 we're working on that, too. And did 481 01:33:47,520 --> 01:33:52,239 everybody get that the uh text that I 482 01:33:49,920 --> 01:33:54,560 sent? That is our raw sewage pump at 483 01:33:52,239 --> 01:33:58,560 their wastewater treatment plant. That 484 01:33:54,560 --> 01:34:00,400 is pump four that went down. Um, so, as 485 01:33:58,560 --> 01:34:03,199 you can imagine, that's all the raw 486 01:34:00,400 --> 01:34:06,560 sewage coming into the plant. Uh we've 487 01:34:03,199 --> 01:34:09,600 had another one go down uh before. We we 488 01:34:06,560 --> 01:34:14,239 did get that new one in. Uh we just got 489 01:34:09,600 --> 01:34:16,320 it in Friday. So um right now Dover has 490 01:34:14,239 --> 01:34:19,600 come over, let us borrow a pump and then 491 01:34:16,320 --> 01:34:23,679 we had ABC pumping out of Zanesville 492 01:34:19,600 --> 01:34:26,880 come in and had it had a submersible um 493 01:34:23,679 --> 01:34:28,400 craned in there today so we could bypass 494 01:34:26,880 --> 01:34:31,520 get it back to the head of the splitter 495 01:34:28,400 --> 01:34:33,440 box. So we did have that done. um talked 496 01:34:31,520 --> 01:34:36,560 with Brian right before the meeting uh 497 01:34:33,440 --> 01:34:39,199 the superintendent and uh we believe or 498 01:34:36,560 --> 01:34:41,360 he believes that uh 499 01:34:39,199 --> 01:34:42,800 um tomorrow they put one of the pumps in 500 01:34:41,360 --> 01:34:43,840 and then the other pump that he had 501 01:34:42,800 --> 01:34:45,520 sitting on the shelf for the other one 502 01:34:43,840 --> 01:34:47,840 that had went down believes they better 503 01:34:45,520 --> 01:34:51,199 put that in Wednesday. So we should be 504 01:34:47,840 --> 01:34:52,880 out in the clear after that. Um even if 505 01:34:51,199 --> 01:34:55,760 uh pump five that we're running on right 506 01:34:52,880 --> 01:34:57,600 now, if it was to go down, um my belief 507 01:34:55,760 --> 01:34:59,600 is with the pump that Dober has given us 508 01:34:57,600 --> 01:35:02,400 and the pump that we got from ABC that's 509 01:34:59,600 --> 01:35:04,400 submersible, we'd still be okay. So just 510 01:35:02,400 --> 01:35:06,159 let everybody rest assured that we'll be 511 01:35:04,400 --> 01:35:08,400 okay with the two pumps we have in 512 01:35:06,159 --> 01:35:10,800 there, but we do have pump five is 513 01:35:08,400 --> 01:35:14,639 available when it is pumping.

I believe when that 591 01:38:02,880 --> 01:38:07,280 ordinance was enacted, it contemplated 592 01:38:05,040 --> 01:38:09,679 local businesses where we could go after 593 01:38:07,280 --> 01:38:12,560 the owner because they live locally. It 594 01:38:09,679 --> 01:38:15,040 did not, I don't believe, con it did not 595 01:38:12,560 --> 01:38:18,159 contemplate going after 596 01:38:15,040 --> 01:38:20,960 uh corporate entities like 597 01:38:18,159 --> 01:38:22,639 uh a Walmart or man Walmart's not in any 598 01:38:20,960 --> 01:38:25,360 trouble 599 01:38:22,639 --> 01:38:27,920 like a like a Walmart or a Chick-fil-A 600 01:38:25,360 --> 01:38:29,840 or a McDonald's or something like that. 601 01:38:27,920 --> 01:38:34,080 none of which are in trouble with us, 602 01:38:29,840 --> 01:38:36,800 but we do have a a a local 603 01:38:34,080 --> 01:38:41,600 corporation that uh we're having some 604 01:38:36,800 --> 01:38:43,520 problems with. And um I can't 605 01:38:41,600 --> 01:38:46,000 unfortunately it's it's the the offense 606 01:38:43,520 --> 01:38:47,920 is an M4 misdemeanor, which is just one 607 01:38:46,000 --> 01:38:50,159 step above a minor misdemeanor. It's 608 01:38:47,920 --> 01:38:57,119 punishable by up to 30 days and a $500 609 01:38:50,159 --> 01:38:58,719 fine um at a as a maximum. And um that's 610 01:38:57,119 --> 01:39:02,400 usually very effective at getting people 611 01:38:58,719 --> 01:39:04,639 to file their income taxes. Um I know we 612 01:39:02,400 --> 01:39:06,960 had problems with the former owners of 613 01:39:04,639 --> 01:39:08,719 the pros table when it was here and we 614 01:39:06,960 --> 01:39:12,480 were able to proceed on that track with 615 01:39:08,719 --> 01:39:17,440 that. But to 616 01:39:12,480 --> 01:39:19,119 charge the CEO of say a McDonald's with 617 01:39:17,440 --> 01:39:21,840 um 618 01:39:19,119 --> 01:39:24,080 uh to charge the CEO of a McDonald's, we 619 01:39:21,840 --> 01:39:25,760 there's no long arm statute that allows 620 01:39:24,080 --> 01:39:27,360 you to go after that person because 621 01:39:25,760 --> 01:39:30,880 that's who we would have to charge 622 01:39:27,360 --> 01:39:34,800 essentially the um chairman of the board 623 01:39:30,880 --> 01:39:36,480 and or all the board members. So um that 624 01:39:34,800 --> 01:39:39,280 becomes problem that becomes 625 01:39:36,480 --> 01:39:41,440 problematic. So what I am and the long 626 01:39:39,280 --> 01:39:44,480 arm statute to explain what that means 627 01:39:41,440 --> 01:39:47,040 is um if some we have a long arm statute 628 01:39:44,480 --> 01:39:49,040 for murder, rape, high level offenses 629 01:39:47,040 --> 01:39:51,119 like that and those are felonies. That 630 01:39:49,040 --> 01:39:53,199 means that if somebody murders somebody, 631 01:39:51,119 --> 01:39:56,239 flees to California, we can still get 632 01:39:53,199 --> 01:39:58,400 them and have them extradited here. Um 633 01:39:56,239 --> 01:40:00,719 or rape somebody's same same situation. 634 01:39:58,400 --> 01:40:03,119 We can't do that with misdemeanors. Um, 635 01:40:00,719 --> 01:40:05,280 basically our jurisdiction extends to 636 01:40:03,119 --> 01:40:07,600 the county and any of the surrounding 637 01:40:05,280 --> 01:40:10,080 counties that are touching us. So, what 638 01:40:07,600 --> 01:40:12,880 I'm looking at is so that I can bring it 639 01:40:10,080 --> 01:40:14,639 I would like to modify that statute to 640 01:40:12,880 --> 01:40:17,280 allow us to bring a civil action in 641 01:40:14,639 --> 01:40:19,360 common please court and get a a default 642 01:40:17,280 --> 01:40:21,040 judgment entry against them that we can 643 01:40:19,360 --> 01:40:23,679 then enforce against the entire 644 01:40:21,040 --> 01:40:25,920 corporation. So, that's something I'm 645 01:40:23,679 --> 01:40:29,440 researching right now. Uh, one of the 646 01:40:25,920 --> 01:40:34,639 things that troubled me was 647 01:40:29,440 --> 01:40:39,119 um the section that limits to a maximum 648 01:40:34,639 --> 01:40:42,639 $25 fee for um 649 01:40:39,119 --> 01:40:46,159 failing to file your income tax. Um, 650 01:40:42,639 --> 01:40:50,560 that section doesn't specify 651 01:40:46,159 --> 01:40:54,800 $25 for a late fee. It says the city 652 01:40:50,560 --> 01:40:57,520 cannot charge more than $25. 653 01:40:54,800 --> 01:40:59,920 Now, there has that that can't be 100% 654 01:40:57,520 --> 01:41:02,080 true because if you're charged with an 655 01:40:59,920 --> 01:41:05,199 M4 misdemeanor, obviously you're looking 656 01:41:02,080 --> 01:41:06,800 at a much larger fine than $25 and 657 01:41:05,199 --> 01:41:10,560 you're looking at jail time and 658 01:41:06,800 --> 01:41:13,119 probation. So, I'm hopeful that I can 659 01:41:10,560 --> 01:41:14,560 modify it to include a civil penalty, 660 01:41:13,119 --> 01:41:16,880 but that's what I'm researching right 661 01:41:14,560 --> 01:41:20,000 now to determine what other cities have 662 01:41:16,880 --> 01:41:22,880 done, what the courts have allowed, and 663 01:41:20,000 --> 01:41:24,080 it would give uh and this is this is the 664 01:41:22,880 --> 01:41:26,800 first time that I've seen where a 665 01:41:24,080 --> 01:41:30,000 corporate entity has been a problem for 666 01:41:26,800 --> 01:41:31,280 us, but it would give us another tool to 667 01:41:30,000 --> 01:41:33,840 go after people. We could even go after 668 01:41:31,280 --> 01:41:34,960 people individually uh civily on on 669 01:41:33,840 --> 01:41:36,480 those things. 670 01:41:34,960 --> 01:41:37,760 And I know from my own personal 671 01:41:36,480 --> 01:41:41,119 experience when we've had to file a 672 01:41:37,760 --> 01:41:43,440 civil suit against somebody um the uh 673 01:41:41,119 --> 01:41:46,719 the judges have held them very 674 01:41:43,440 --> 01:41:51,199 accountable and uh generally enforced 675 01:41:46,719 --> 01:41:52,960 the uh fines that we levied and um uh 676 01:41:51,199 --> 01:41:54,880 would hold them in contempt if they 677 01:41:52,960 --> 01:41:57,679 didn't 678 01:41:54,880 --> 01:41:59,920 uh pay the fines. and we would also be 679 01:41:57,679 --> 01:42:02,560 able then to put a lean on the property 680 01:41:59,920 --> 01:42:04,800 and foreclose in order to collect uh any 681 01:42:02,560 --> 01:42:06,560 taxes that were unpaid. So that's what 682 01:42:04,800 --> 01:42:08,159 I'm looking at right now. I'm just 683 01:42:06,560 --> 01:42:09,520 trying to figure out how to do it and 684 01:42:08,159 --> 01:42:11,840 make sure that it's done in accordance 685 01:42:09,520 --> 01:42:13,760 with the law. That's big thing that I'm 686 01:42:11,840 --> 01:42:17,040 working on right now. And I've got a 687 01:42:13,760 --> 01:42:20,560 meeting with the judge to on Thursday u 688 01:42:17,040 --> 01:42:23,280 along with my prosecutor to um go over 689 01:42:20,560 --> 01:42:25,119 how we can more effectively manage uh 690 01:42:23,280 --> 01:42:27,520 the misdemeanor cases that we have in 691 01:42:25,119 --> 01:42:32,400 there to uh make sure we're getting them 692 01:42:27,520 --> 01:42:34,239 to file. I I did we have not been uh as 693 01:42:32,400 --> 01:42:36,880 a compromise with the judge because it 694 01:42:34,239 --> 01:42:41,520 does give a tremendous backlog to the 695 01:42:36,880 --> 01:42:43,920 court on these cases. Um I had offered 696 01:42:41,520 --> 01:42:46,880 um a few years ago that we would not 697 01:42:43,920 --> 01:42:49,679 prosecute people for failing to pay 698 01:42:46,880 --> 01:42:52,320 their income taxes. And the reason for 699 01:42:49,679 --> 01:42:55,600 that is it's really a practical matter. 700 01:42:52,320 --> 01:42:57,280 Uh we can turn those into the state 701 01:42:55,600 --> 01:42:58,639 attorney general's office to collect. 702 01:42:57,280 --> 01:43:00,159 They can intercept you. They can 703 01:42:58,639 --> 01:43:02,639 intercept your income tax, something 704 01:43:00,159 --> 01:43:05,520 that we can't do. and they're a much 705 01:43:02,639 --> 01:43:06,800 more effective collection agency than 706 01:43:05,520 --> 01:43:09,360 having the court beat the collection 707 01:43:06,800 --> 01:43:10,960 agency and holding them accountable by 708 01:43:09,360 --> 01:43:12,560 threatening to put them in jail. No, we 709 01:43:10,960 --> 01:43:15,119 don't want people in jail that haven't 710 01:43:12,560 --> 01:43:16,639 paid their taxes. We want people that 711 01:43:15,119 --> 01:43:19,679 have committed domestic violence, 712 01:43:16,639 --> 01:43:21,280 assault, vehicular homicide, things of 713 01:43:19,679 --> 01:43:23,760 that nature, the biggest crimes that we 714 01:43:21,280 --> 01:43:28,000 prosecute in the city um on a 715 01:43:23,760 --> 01:43:30,159 misdemeanor level. So, um, so and I know 716 01:43:28,000 --> 01:43:31,840 that the court turns all their 717 01:43:30,159 --> 01:43:33,360 delinquent fees into the attorney 718 01:43:31,840 --> 01:43:36,239 general's office and that's how they get 719 01:43:33,360 --> 01:43:40,000 paid. So, uh, I haven't been prosecuting 720 01:43:36,239 --> 01:43:42,080 on those. But if if we can hold them, we 721 01:43:40,000 --> 01:43:44,400 have to be able to hold them accountable 722 01:43:42,080 --> 01:43:46,480 for uh, not filing because that's really 723 01:43:44,400 --> 01:43:49,199 the only mechanism we have to get them 724 01:43:46,480 --> 01:43:50,800 to file and to get 725 01:43:49,199 --> 01:43:53,280 find out if they owe anything. And if 726 01:43:50,800 --> 01:43:54,960 they owe anything, we can we can and and 727 01:43:53,280 --> 01:43:56,159 they're delinquent, we can we can turn 728 01:43:54,960 --> 01:43:58,480 them into the attorney general's office 729 01:43:56,159 --> 01:43:59,760 and get money that way. So that's that's 730 01:43:58,480 --> 01:44:01,679 the big thing that I'm working on. And 731 01:43:59,760 --> 01:44:04,480 we're meeting with the judge on Thursday 732 01:44:01,679 --> 01:44:07,360 with the mayor and me and u my 733 01:44:04,480 --> 01:44:09,040 prosecutor to review things and see how 734 01:44:07,360 --> 01:44:10,960 we can fasttrack those things and get 735 01:44:09,040 --> 01:44:13,440 them better worked out. I know in the 736 01:44:10,960 --> 01:44:15,119 past the court did have a a diversion 737 01:44:13,440 --> 01:44:18,880 set up where they heard all the cases at 738 01:44:15,119 --> 01:44:20,719 one time and uh they had the opportunity 739 01:44:18,880 --> 01:44:22,320 to get rid of the cases if they filed 740 01:44:20,719 --> 01:44:23,280 them which I thought was very effective. 741 01:44:22,320 --> 01:44:25,440 I don't know if that's something that's 742 01:44:23,280 --> 01:44:27,360 worth looking at to again but we'll find 743 01:44:25,440 --> 01:44:30,639 out on Thursday. 744 01:44:27,360 --> 01:44:32,639 That's all of my reports if anybody has 745 01:44:30,639 --> 01:44:35,280 any questions on that. 746 01:44:32,639 --> 01:44:37,199 » Any questions? 747 01:44:35,280 --> 01:44:38,719 All right.
