[34:41]
All right. 6:45. I'm going to call this
[34:43]
meeting of the uh new Philadelphia City
[34:45]
Council Finance Committee to to order. I
[34:49]
see that Mr. Crimeville is here, Mr. Lio
[34:51]
is here, Mr. Ramos is here. So, our our
[34:54]
full committee is here. Thank you for
[34:56]
coming early tonight, guys. Uh what I
[34:58]
called this for is we met I believe it
[35:00]
was on the 3rd. Discussed the the police
[35:04]
contract. A couple members of council
[35:06]
were not here. The mayor was not here.
[35:07]
We didn't really have the legislation
[35:09]
number in front of us. I thought we
[35:11]
should get together and at least clarify
[35:13]
before we go to the floor tonight
[35:14]
because that night we voted to put it on
[35:16]
the agenda. uh but at least to answer
[35:19]
any questions that people weren't here
[35:21]
might have about the contract and and
[35:24]
what we're doing so that when we go to
[35:26]
to move for a vote tonight, I'd like to
[35:28]
be able to suspend the rules and and
[35:29]
move on this thing if we could. But I
[35:31]
thought this would be a good opportunity
[35:32]
to get any other questions answered.
[35:35]
Being that it is a contract issue, we
[35:38]
need to go into executive session. So I
[35:40]
would entertain a motion to do so.
[35:42]
» I'll make that motion.
[35:43]
» Thank you, Mr. Lanszer. Seconded by Mr.
[35:44]
Kimville. Mr. Lonzo, are you in favor?
[35:46]
» Yes.
[35:48]
Yeah, I am as well. So, we will move
[35:50]
into executive session here uh to
[35:53]
discuss the the Fraternal Order of
[35:55]
Police contract. Thank you.
[1:04:02]
Okay.
[1:04:04]
No, but we are out of executive. But
[1:04:06]
before we adjourn the meeting,
[1:04:09]
» Uh, go ahead and open the door.
[1:04:11]
» Yep. This is public.
[1:04:12]
» Okay.
[1:04:13]
» Uh, just wanted to to mention about the
[1:04:15]
the the two resolutions dealing with the
[1:04:18]
sale of and the purchase of the fire
[1:04:21]
equipment.
[1:04:23]
Just to be clear,
[1:04:25]
we can't sell some of that until we buy
[1:04:27]
the other,
[1:04:29]
» But it will be used to reimburse. So,
[1:04:33]
» There was some conversation that it was
[1:04:35]
going to be that one wouldn't be bought
[1:04:36]
till the others were sold. I just wanted
[1:04:37]
to clarify that
[1:04:39]
before we voted on it tonight. Okay.
[1:04:43]
» Is there any other business to come
[1:04:45]
before this committee?
[1:04:47]
» Hearing none, I would entertain your
[1:04:49]
motion for adjournment. We are adjourned
[1:04:52]
at 7:15.
[1:05:00]

[1:24:11]
» All right. Thank you, Mr. Corbright. So,
[1:24:13]
move to our administrative reports.
[1:24:16]
First up, Mayor Day.
[1:24:17]
» Thank you, Mr. President. We're going to
[1:24:19]
go to the podium. I have a special
[1:24:21]
presentation and my report.
[1:24:29]
First of all,
[1:24:31]
um I get asked about this every week, so
[1:24:34]
I'm going to give you a Chick-fil-A
[1:24:35]
update.
[1:24:38]
The Travel Lodge on Bluebell Drive
[1:24:39]
Northwest is now closed. It's been
[1:24:42]
purchased by Chick-fil-A and the
[1:24:44]
demolition permit has been approved by
[1:24:45]
the city. Last week on a Microsoft Teams
[1:24:48]
meeting, service director McAir and
[1:24:51]
myself watched the ceremony from
[1:24:53]
Chick-fil-A headquarters that introduced
[1:24:56]
Brady Rust as the operator of the New
[1:24:59]
Philadelphia restaurant. He and his wife
[1:25:02]
and child recently visited New
[1:25:03]
Philadelphia and they stopped by the
[1:25:05]
mayor's office and met with us and we
[1:25:08]
were very impressed with Mr. Rest. He's
[1:25:11]
a Midwesterner from Iowa, has been
[1:25:13]
managing a Chick-fil-A restaurant in
[1:25:15]
Billings, Montana,
[1:25:18]
and he told us that he loves our area
[1:25:20]
and is excited to move his family here.
[1:25:22]
The new Philadelphia restaurant is
[1:25:24]
expected to open sometime in the first
[1:25:26]
quarter of next year. So, that's the
[1:25:28]
Chick-fil-A update as of today.
[1:25:32]
More to come, though.
[1:25:35]
Uh this past Saturday, we cut the ribbon
[1:25:37]
to officially open the model home of the
[1:25:39]
new Philadelphia housing plan, which was
[1:25:42]
created by Matt Nadra Karum in
[1:25:44]
partnership with the city. The model
[1:25:46]
starter home, labeled the Jumpstart, is
[1:25:50]
located at 347 Ray Avenue Northeast.
[1:25:52]
That's at the corner of Third Drive
[1:25:54]
Northeast. It's a 1300 square ft
[1:25:58]
three-bedroom house priced at around
[1:26:00]
$200,000.
[1:26:02]
The idea behind the new Philadelphia
[1:26:03]
housing plan is to build housing for the
[1:26:06]
local workforce and young families to
[1:26:09]
make it easier for them to attain home
[1:26:11]
ownership. The city is participating in
[1:26:13]
the program by using code enforcement to
[1:26:16]
create buildable lots. The CAMS are also
[1:26:19]
acquiring vacant lots in the city.
[1:26:22]
Everyone who participated in the
[1:26:23]
construction of the model home has
[1:26:26]
deferred payment until it's sold. That
[1:26:28]
is amazing. But but this is just the um
[1:26:33]
you know the movement and the program
[1:26:35]
that the CAMS have uh been able to
[1:26:38]
create. The plan is truly a community
[1:26:40]
effort to address the affordable housing
[1:26:43]
shortage here in New Philadelphia and
[1:26:44]
actually throughout Tuscross County. So
[1:26:47]
if you'd like to tour the model home,
[1:26:49]
just contact a local realtor. The new
[1:26:52]
New Philadelphia housing plan also has a
[1:26:54]
website uh at uh www.new new
[1:26:58]
Philadelphiaousing plan.com.
[1:27:01]
So you can visit that for more
[1:27:03]
information. Now for my special
[1:27:05]
presentation, I'd like to spend the
[1:27:07]
remainder of my time reading and
[1:27:09]
presenting this proclamation to Amy
[1:27:12]
Smith and Jared Sllayoff.
[1:27:16]
Who is Amy? Are you still the general
[1:27:18]
manager of WJER? And Jared, the general
[1:27:21]
manager of WTZ?
[1:27:23]
» I'm the general manager of both.
[1:27:24]
» Both.
[1:27:25]
» Okay.
[1:27:27]
Well, this is uh to uh honor the fact
[1:27:31]
that that WJ radio has now moved to New
[1:27:34]
Philadelphia. So, I'm going to read this
[1:27:36]
proclamation then pre then presented to
[1:27:39]
him. WJ Radio entered a new era in its
[1:27:43]
75 year history by moving its office and
[1:27:46]
studios to New Philadelphia. And whereas
[1:27:49]
the station first hit the airwaves as
[1:27:52]
AM1450
[1:27:53]
on February 22nd, 1950 under the
[1:27:57]
ownership of Agnes Reeves Greer. She
[1:28:00]
chose the call letters Jer in honor of
[1:28:04]
her father Jeremiah E. Reeves and the
[1:28:07]
station operated on a parcel of land in
[1:28:09]
Dover that was part of the family's
[1:28:11]
estate. And whereas WJER radio grew to
[1:28:15]
add an FM station that began
[1:28:18]
broadcasting at 101.7
[1:28:20]
in 1969 from its studio on the boulevard
[1:28:23]
in Dover. Whereas former WJ owner, the
[1:28:27]
late Gary Petracola worked tirelessly to
[1:28:30]
strengthen the radio station's community
[1:28:33]
identity as the voice of the valley. And
[1:28:36]
whereas the late Ed Shoemaker, a former
[1:28:39]
WJER employee, fulfilled his dream of
[1:28:42]
owning his own radio station by
[1:28:44]
launching WTUZ
[1:28:47]
99.9 FM on May 1st, 1990.
[1:28:51]
And whereas WJER was purchased by Lauren
[1:28:54]
International in 2022 and then sold to
[1:28:57]
WTU Radio Incorporated in 2024.
[1:29:02]
The studios and business operation of
[1:29:04]
both radio stations are now housed under
[1:29:06]
one roof at 2424
[1:29:09]
East High Avenue. And whereas WJR will
[1:29:13]
continue to provide local news, sports,
[1:29:15]
entertainment, and community service to
[1:29:18]
generations of listeners. And whereas
[1:29:21]
the city of New Philadelphia is honored
[1:29:23]
to welcome WJER radio to New
[1:29:25]
Philadelphia where both the voice of the
[1:29:28]
valley and Z country will broadcast from
[1:29:31]
the county seat of Tuscross County. Now
[1:29:34]
therefore, I, Joel Beam Day, mayor of
[1:29:36]
the city of New Philadelphia, do hereby
[1:29:38]
proclaim today, Monday, July 14th, 2025,
[1:29:44]
as WJ Radio appreciation day, and call
[1:29:47]
upon all New Philadelphia residents to
[1:29:50]
join us in welcoming WJ Radio and its
[1:29:53]
staff to our city. So, welcome and
[1:29:56]
congratulations.
[1:30:07]
All right. Thank you.
[1:30:09]
» We know you have a bigger role now, but
[1:30:10]
we miss you on the air.
[1:30:13]
» I will. All you have to do is ask. You
[1:30:16]
know what happens when you put a
[1:30:17]
microphone in front of me?
[1:30:20]
» Oh, that can.
[1:30:24]
» You got carried away there. So,
[1:30:25]
» Yeah, I did. Yeah, I sort of, you know,
[1:30:27]
going back to my former self as a radio
[1:30:30]
announcer.
[1:30:31]
» All right, Jared, Amy, congratulations
[1:30:35]
and welcome to New Philly.
[1:30:37]
Glad to have you as part of our
[1:30:39]
community.
[1:30:40]
All right, move on to the service
[1:30:42]
director, Mr. McAve.
[1:30:44]
» Um, thank you, Mr. President. First, I'd
[1:30:46]
like to start with um actually the the
[1:30:49]
ongoing projects. Um, Glenn drives
[1:30:52]
moving along uh reasonably well. um had
[1:30:56]
that little bit of rain last week to
[1:30:58]
kind of uh did a couple things to the
[1:31:00]
road, but it it held in there. The
[1:31:02]
concrete um road helped out there. It
[1:31:05]
would have been black top might have
[1:31:06]
been a little bit sketchier, but it did
[1:31:08]
hold in there. So, uh again, it's moving
[1:31:10]
along. Still on schedule for the end of
[1:31:13]
September to be done after speaking with
[1:31:15]
uh them last week. Uh, Franklin Square.
[1:31:19]
Uh, still just waiting on the black top
[1:31:21]
crew to come in and make those final
[1:31:23]
changes and the repairs that they need
[1:31:25]
to make there. The that little rib that
[1:31:27]
they have right there around Allen Lane
[1:31:30]
right there. So, they got to get that
[1:31:31]
fixed. Um, Second Street water line over
[1:31:33]
here on the northeast, the 100 200 block
[1:31:36]
that should be done by the end of the
[1:31:37]
week. So, you'll be able to use that
[1:31:38]
road. I know half of it's been closed
[1:31:40]
off biggest part of the last couple
[1:31:42]
months, but that should be wrapping up.
[1:31:44]
Um like you say by the end of this week
[1:31:46]
we'll start to pave that ditch. We'll be
[1:31:48]
waiting on um Newton asphalt to come in.
[1:31:50]
So but other than that the road will be
[1:31:53]
done as or the the road will be open by
[1:31:55]
the end of this week. Um also on the KSU
[1:31:59]
connector trail we did meet with um ODOT
[1:32:02]
officials walked it again. All the curb
[1:32:05]
strip reclamation work has been uh done
[1:32:08]
to our satisfaction. So that's all done.
[1:32:11]
We're still working through a few low
[1:32:13]
spots in there, have them come back in
[1:32:15]
and grind in. Um,
[1:32:18]
they did shoot all the catch basins.
[1:32:20]
They're all within that ratio, the
[1:32:23]
tolerance there. So, it's in the way
[1:32:25]
it's supposed to be, but we're still
[1:32:26]
trying to work through that. Um, I
[1:32:28]
believe we'll be able to work on a
[1:32:30]
couple of them. I don't know if we'll be
[1:32:31]
able to do anything that I'm 100% going
[1:32:34]
to be happy with, but again, there's
[1:32:36]
some things on there that are low on one
[1:32:38]
side. And I went back through Google
[1:32:40]
Earth. there was water laying in some of
[1:32:41]
those areas prior to it. So, there was
[1:32:44]
some of these areas already had water
[1:32:46]
there. That's just doing the same thing
[1:32:48]
there. Um, also the park pool, if
[1:32:51]
anybody's
[1:32:53]
» Uh known about that, the uh chlorinator
[1:32:56]
pump had went out on Friday. Thought we
[1:32:58]
was going to be able to get up and
[1:32:59]
going. It's been closed. Uh pool's been
[1:33:01]
closed until then and since then, I'm
[1:33:03]
sorry. and uh looking for repairs to be
[1:33:07]
done tomorrow and then by the time we
[1:33:10]
get the chlorine back in there, get it
[1:33:12]
acclimated. We're hoping by Friday uh
[1:33:16]
that we can open that back up. So, it's
[1:33:18]
been a trying year for the part pool,
[1:33:20]
you know, a couple times there had to
[1:33:22]
close down, but um that pump there,
[1:33:25]
Victorian pump, uh is uh 27 years old.
[1:33:30]
Life expectancy for those are about 20
[1:33:33]
years. So, we got our money was worth
[1:33:35]
out of that, but now it's leaving us to
[1:33:36]
where to get it. Um,
[1:33:39]
the price we received last week was
[1:33:42]
right around $12,000 for a new pump. So,
[1:33:45]
we're working on that, too. And did
[1:33:47]
everybody get that the uh text that I
[1:33:49]
sent? That is our raw sewage pump at
[1:33:52]
their wastewater treatment plant. That
[1:33:54]
is pump four that went down. Um, so, as
[1:33:58]
you can imagine, that's all the raw
[1:34:00]
sewage coming into the plant. Uh we've
[1:34:03]
had another one go down uh before. We we
[1:34:06]
did get that new one in. Uh we just got
[1:34:09]
it in Friday. So um right now Dover has
[1:34:14]
come over, let us borrow a pump and then
[1:34:16]
we had ABC pumping out of Zanesville
[1:34:19]
come in and had it had a submersible um
[1:34:23]
craned in there today so we could bypass
[1:34:26]
get it back to the head of the splitter
[1:34:28]
box. So we did have that done. um talked
[1:34:31]
with Brian right before the meeting uh
[1:34:33]
the superintendent and uh we believe or
[1:34:36]
he believes that uh
[1:34:39]
um tomorrow they put one of the pumps in
[1:34:41]
and then the other pump that he had
[1:34:42]
sitting on the shelf for the other one
[1:34:43]
that had went down believes they better
[1:34:45]
put that in Wednesday. So we should be
[1:34:47]
out in the clear after that. Um even if
[1:34:51]
uh pump five that we're running on right
[1:34:52]
now, if it was to go down, um my belief
[1:34:55]
is with the pump that Dober has given us
[1:34:57]
and the pump that we got from ABC that's
[1:34:59]
submersible, we'd still be okay. So just
[1:35:02]
let everybody rest assured that we'll be
[1:35:04]
okay with the two pumps we have in
[1:35:06]
there, but we do have pump five is
[1:35:08]
available when it is pumping. Um I just
[1:35:10]
want to make everybody aware of that. Um
[1:35:14]
also just quick update on the gas lines.
[1:35:17]
Um, I've heard nothing at city hall
[1:35:19]
wise, so everything's going good. Uh, I
[1:35:21]
didn't meet with them
[1:35:23]
early last week, so it's been over a
[1:35:25]
week, but everything's going good. You
[1:35:26]
know, they're down on the south side and
[1:35:28]
they're out on the east end on Bitler
[1:35:30]
and Ridge and all that, but seems to be
[1:35:32]
fine out there, too. So, uh, just quick
[1:35:34]
update on the two gas projects, too. We
[1:35:37]
know right both them are right right in
[1:35:40]
that early November range too to try to
[1:35:42]
get uh grass and everything back in. But
[1:35:45]
those are moving along fine also. So yes
[1:35:48]
sir.
[1:35:48]
» Only thing I heard about that on the
[1:35:50]
south side was um where they're digging
[1:35:53]
out the manholes and leaving those
[1:35:55]
holes. They're a little slow on putting
[1:35:57]
cones in them.
[1:35:58]
» Are they? I'm sure you mentioned that to
[1:36:00]
them
[1:36:00]
» Because Mush Rush is very good about
[1:36:02]
that. They did one over on go and about
[1:36:05]
three or four people hid it before they
[1:36:07]
came back and put a cone in it. So,
[1:36:09]
» Okay, I'll mention that.
[1:36:12]
» Yep.
[1:36:13]
» Because all those I think right now
[1:36:16]
um or not all of them, but probably I'm
[1:36:18]
going to say 50% of them um sewer lines
[1:36:22]
crew is u measuring them and we'll raise
[1:36:25]
them
[1:36:26]
» Since they've already did the
[1:36:27]
jackhammering work and got it open.
[1:36:29]
Yeah.
[1:36:29]
» So we are going to raise the ones that
[1:36:32]
you know we don't want to do every 200
[1:36:33]
feet but if we got a 450t run we're
[1:36:36]
going to have one in between because the
[1:36:37]
jeter back will only go 450 ft. So he is
[1:36:40]
going to raise some of those. So we some
[1:36:42]
up and the other ones they'll uh must
[1:36:44]
rush the job to uh black top back in
[1:36:50]
» Any other questions.
[1:36:54]
Thank you Mr. Macker.
[1:36:56]
» Thank you.
[1:36:57]
All right, that was skip safety director
[1:37:00]
auditor
[1:37:02]
Mrs. Denham.
[1:37:03]
» Thank you, Mr. President. No comments.
[1:37:07]
» All right, treasurer, Mr. Ger.
[1:37:09]
» No additional report.
[1:37:10]
» All right, law director, Mr. Fate.
[1:37:13]
» Thank you, Mr. President.
[1:37:15]
» One of the things I'm examining
[1:37:16]
currently is our city income tax
[1:37:20]
ordinance. Um, to my knowledge, we're
[1:37:22]
the only one in Tuscar County that has a
[1:37:25]
mandatory filing for city income tax.
[1:37:27]
Whether you owe or not, for instance, I
[1:37:29]
file city income tax every year, I don't
[1:37:31]
know because it's taken out of my
[1:37:32]
salary. Um, but um, we do have a we are
[1:37:36]
mandatory filing city. It's critical
[1:37:39]
because we can't collect from somebody
[1:37:42]
if we don't know what they owe. Thanks.
[1:37:44]
» So, for my money, I think it's a very
[1:37:46]
important ordinance.
[1:37:47]
» We do our best to enforce that.
[1:37:50]
» One of the problems we run into is our
[1:37:52]
current ordinance allows for um us to
[1:37:56]
also go after businesses that are not
[1:37:58]
withholding taxes the way they're
[1:38:00]
supposed to. I believe when that
[1:38:02]
ordinance was enacted, it contemplated
[1:38:05]
local businesses where we could go after
[1:38:07]
the owner because they live locally. It
[1:38:09]
did not, I don't believe, con it did not
[1:38:12]
contemplate going after
[1:38:15]
uh corporate entities like
[1:38:18]
uh a Walmart or man Walmart's not in any
[1:38:20]
trouble
[1:38:22]
like a like a Walmart or a Chick-fil-A
[1:38:25]
or a McDonald's or something like that.
[1:38:27]
none of which are in trouble with us,
[1:38:29]
but we do have a a a local
[1:38:34]
corporation that uh we're having some
[1:38:36]
problems with. And um I can't
[1:38:41]
unfortunately it's it's the the offense
[1:38:43]
is an M4 misdemeanor, which is just one
[1:38:46]
step above a minor misdemeanor. It's
[1:38:47]
punishable by up to 30 days and a $500
[1:38:50]
fine um at a as a maximum. And um that's
[1:38:57]
usually very effective at getting people
[1:38:58]
to file their income taxes. Um I know we
[1:39:02]
had problems with the former owners of
[1:39:04]
the pros table when it was here and we
[1:39:06]
were able to proceed on that track with
[1:39:08]
that. But to
[1:39:12]
charge the CEO of say a McDonald's with
[1:39:17]
um
[1:39:19]
uh to charge the CEO of a McDonald's, we
[1:39:21]
there's no long arm statute that allows
[1:39:24]
you to go after that person because
[1:39:25]
that's who we would have to charge
[1:39:27]
essentially the um chairman of the board
[1:39:30]
and or all the board members. So um that
[1:39:34]
becomes problem that becomes
[1:39:36]
problematic. So what I am and the long
[1:39:39]
arm statute to explain what that means
[1:39:41]
is um if some we have a long arm statute
[1:39:44]
for murder, rape, high level offenses
[1:39:47]
like that and those are felonies. That
[1:39:49]
means that if somebody murders somebody,
[1:39:51]
flees to California, we can still get
[1:39:53]
them and have them extradited here. Um
[1:39:56]
or rape somebody's same same situation.
[1:39:58]
We can't do that with misdemeanors. Um,
[1:40:00]
basically our jurisdiction extends to
[1:40:03]
the county and any of the surrounding
[1:40:05]
counties that are touching us. So, what
[1:40:07]
I'm looking at is so that I can bring it
[1:40:10]
I would like to modify that statute to
[1:40:12]
allow us to bring a civil action in
[1:40:14]
common please court and get a a default
[1:40:17]
judgment entry against them that we can
[1:40:19]
then enforce against the entire
[1:40:21]
corporation. So, that's something I'm
[1:40:23]
researching right now. Uh, one of the
[1:40:25]
things that troubled me was
[1:40:29]
um the section that limits to a maximum
[1:40:34]
$25 fee for um
[1:40:39]
failing to file your income tax. Um,
[1:40:42]
that section doesn't specify
[1:40:46]
$25 for a late fee. It says the city
[1:40:50]
cannot charge more than $25.
[1:40:54]
Now, there has that that can't be 100%
[1:40:57]
true because if you're charged with an
[1:40:59]
M4 misdemeanor, obviously you're looking
[1:41:02]
at a much larger fine than $25 and
[1:41:05]
you're looking at jail time and
[1:41:06]
probation. So, I'm hopeful that I can
[1:41:10]
modify it to include a civil penalty,
[1:41:13]
but that's what I'm researching right
[1:41:14]
now to determine what other cities have
[1:41:16]
done, what the courts have allowed, and
[1:41:20]
it would give uh and this is this is the
[1:41:22]
first time that I've seen where a
[1:41:24]
corporate entity has been a problem for
[1:41:26]
us, but it would give us another tool to
[1:41:30]
go after people. We could even go after
[1:41:31]
people individually uh civily on on
[1:41:33]
those things.
[1:41:34]
And I know from my own personal
[1:41:36]
experience when we've had to file a
[1:41:37]
civil suit against somebody um the uh
[1:41:41]
the judges have held them very
[1:41:43]
accountable and uh generally enforced
[1:41:46]
the uh fines that we levied and um uh
[1:41:51]
would hold them in contempt if they
[1:41:52]
didn't
[1:41:54]
uh pay the fines. and we would also be
[1:41:57]
able then to put a lean on the property
[1:41:59]
and foreclose in order to collect uh any
[1:42:02]
taxes that were unpaid. So that's what
[1:42:04]
I'm looking at right now. I'm just
[1:42:06]
trying to figure out how to do it and
[1:42:08]
make sure that it's done in accordance
[1:42:09]
with the law. That's big thing that I'm
[1:42:11]
working on right now. And I've got a
[1:42:13]
meeting with the judge to on Thursday u
[1:42:17]
along with my prosecutor to um go over
[1:42:20]
how we can more effectively manage uh
[1:42:23]
the misdemeanor cases that we have in
[1:42:25]
there to uh make sure we're getting them
[1:42:27]
to file. I I did we have not been uh as
[1:42:32]
a compromise with the judge because it
[1:42:34]
does give a tremendous backlog to the
[1:42:36]
court on these cases. Um I had offered
[1:42:41]
um a few years ago that we would not
[1:42:43]
prosecute people for failing to pay
[1:42:46]
their income taxes. And the reason for
[1:42:49]
that is it's really a practical matter.
[1:42:52]
Uh we can turn those into the state
[1:42:55]
attorney general's office to collect.
[1:42:57]
They can intercept you. They can
[1:42:58]
intercept your income tax, something
[1:43:00]
that we can't do. and they're a much
[1:43:02]
more effective collection agency than
[1:43:05]
having the court beat the collection
[1:43:06]
agency and holding them accountable by
[1:43:09]
threatening to put them in jail. No, we
[1:43:10]
don't want people in jail that haven't
[1:43:12]
paid their taxes. We want people that
[1:43:15]
have committed domestic violence,
[1:43:16]
assault, vehicular homicide, things of
[1:43:19]
that nature, the biggest crimes that we
[1:43:21]
prosecute in the city um on a
[1:43:23]
misdemeanor level. So, um, so and I know
[1:43:28]
that the court turns all their
[1:43:30]
delinquent fees into the attorney
[1:43:31]
general's office and that's how they get
[1:43:33]
paid. So, uh, I haven't been prosecuting
[1:43:36]
on those. But if if we can hold them, we
[1:43:40]
have to be able to hold them accountable
[1:43:42]
for uh, not filing because that's really
[1:43:44]
the only mechanism we have to get them
[1:43:46]
to file and to get
[1:43:49]
find out if they owe anything. And if
[1:43:50]
they owe anything, we can we can and and
[1:43:53]
they're delinquent, we can we can turn
[1:43:54]
them into the attorney general's office
[1:43:56]
and get money that way. So that's that's
[1:43:58]
the big thing that I'm working on. And
[1:43:59]
we're meeting with the judge on Thursday
[1:44:01]
with the mayor and me and u my
[1:44:04]
prosecutor to review things and see how
[1:44:07]
we can fasttrack those things and get
[1:44:09]
them better worked out. I know in the
[1:44:10]
past the court did have a a diversion
[1:44:13]
set up where they heard all the cases at
[1:44:15]
one time and uh they had the opportunity
[1:44:18]
to get rid of the cases if they filed
[1:44:20]
them which I thought was very effective.
[1:44:22]
I don't know if that's something that's
[1:44:23]
worth looking at to again but we'll find
[1:44:25]
out on Thursday.
[1:44:27]
That's all of my reports if anybody has
[1:44:30]
any questions on that.
[1:44:32]

[1:45:35]
» Thank you, Mr. Mr. President, the uh
[1:45:37]
park board will be meeting uh this week
[1:45:40]
uh Wednesday the 16th at 12:00 p.m. at
[1:45:43]
the park pavilion.
[1:45:45]
» All right. Health board, Mr. Simlink.
[1:45:48]
» Uh health board met on July 9th, last
[1:45:51]
Wednesday and did a couple of
[1:45:52]
interesting things. Uh they are acting
[1:45:56]
to toughen up the way they deal with
[1:45:59]
restaurants that seem to have repeated
[1:46:01]
violations or don't get all their
[1:46:04]
violations fixed. or they fix them for a
[1:46:06]
week and then they come back the next.
[1:46:08]
Sounds a little like the air
[1:46:09]
conditioning deal that you know.
[1:46:12]
So they're trying to figure out put how
[1:46:14]
to put some teeth into that. There one
[1:46:16]
restaurant particular down at the mall
[1:46:18]
that's apparently has trouble coming to
[1:46:21]
grips with with their violations. So
[1:46:24]
they're working on that. Uh, another
[1:46:26]
thing they're going to do is is uh
[1:46:28]
they're going to increase the cost of
[1:46:29]
vaccinations for people that don't have
[1:46:31]
insurance by 10 bucks. Uh, because we're
[1:46:34]
already a bargain and uh we should um
[1:46:39]
they are they rescheduled their employee
[1:46:42]
u shifts in order to provide more time
[1:46:45]
that they're open and available for
[1:46:48]
service to people instead of they don't
[1:46:50]
close for noon anymore. They don't do
[1:46:52]
all that kind of stuff. This is our new
[1:46:53]
health commissioner. I think I think
[1:46:55]
she's doing a nice job. U and uh and
[1:46:59]
she's she's got an increased focus on
[1:47:01]
publicity. She's doing radio interviews.
[1:47:03]
She's doing sending out news releases,
[1:47:06]
raising the profile of the health
[1:47:07]
department,
[1:47:09]
which
[1:47:10]
has to be good.
[1:47:12]
» And and finally, they're doing a lot of
[1:47:14]
mosquito this spring. I think the
[1:47:16]
focused areas are on the south side uh
[1:47:20]
the dog park and then or on the park as
[1:47:23]
well. So anyway, few things that they're
[1:47:26]
doing which I thought were of interest.
[1:47:29]
» All right. Thank you, Mr. Sling. Any
[1:47:31]
questions?
[1:47:32]
All right, we'll move on to our council
[1:47:35]
committee reports. Finance, Mr. Rubith.
[1:47:38]
» Thank you, Mr. President. The finance
[1:47:40]
committee met on July 3rd here in
[1:47:43]
council's chambers to discuss uh the
[1:47:46]
fraternal order of police contract and
[1:47:48]
at the end of that meeting moved to put
[1:47:50]
it on the agenda for this week's
[1:47:52]
meeting. Uh we again met tonight in
[1:47:55]
council chambers just to to review that
[1:47:57]
for anybody who would had missed the
[1:47:59]
other finance committee meeting um and
[1:48:02]
uh are moving forward with the FOP
[1:48:04]
contract tonight.
[1:48:06]
» All right. Thank you, Mr. Truth. Public
[1:48:09]
works and economic development. Mr. Wer.
[1:48:12]
» Thank you, Mr. President. No report this
[1:48:14]
evening.
[1:48:14]
» All right. Safety, health, and service.
[1:48:17]
Mr. Simlink.
[1:48:18]
» No report, sir.
[1:48:19]
» All right. Zone and annexation. Mrs.
[1:48:23]
Ramos.
[1:48:24]
» Thank you, Mr. President. No report.
[1:48:27]
» All right. Salary. Mr. Granville.
[1:48:30]
» Thank you, Mr. President. No report.
[1:48:32]
» All right. Secretary, Mr. Sears.
[1:48:35]
» Uh, thank you, Mr. President. Uh just a
[1:48:38]
short report hopefully. Um the cemetery
[1:48:41]
board met on July 10th. Uh I was not
[1:48:44]
able to attend, but thank you to to
[1:48:47]
Jamie for sending me the notes so that I
[1:48:49]
could go over things. Um one thing to
[1:48:52]
mention, uh I guess Mr. Heron noted that
[1:48:55]
the cemetery department is low on staff
[1:48:57]
this summer uh due to some summer help
[1:48:59]
that didn't work out in in maintenance.
[1:49:02]
Uh, so it sounds like they were already
[1:49:04]
talking about
[1:49:06]
trying to coordinate with I guess the
[1:49:09]
general services, Mr. Macker, that'd be
[1:49:11]
that'd be you, I guess. Uh, coordinating
[1:49:13]
with them to get some bigger mowing
[1:49:14]
equipment just to try to maximize
[1:49:17]
maximize efficiency and uh get as much
[1:49:20]
done as possible. So, I think I think
[1:49:23]
that sounded good to me. I think
[1:49:24]
everybody can appreciate that working
[1:49:26]
together to try to get
[1:49:27]
» Remember Palado brought up
[1:49:32]
at at Meadows how three4 is just open
[1:49:35]
field.
[1:49:35]
» Yeah.
[1:49:36]
» And they're mowing with a 54 inch John
[1:49:38]
Deere just so he's going to try it
[1:49:40]
because
[1:49:42]
we all said there you got to remember
[1:49:44]
picking it up, dropping the back off. So
[1:49:47]
you really got to see if it actually is.
[1:49:49]
But we're going to try and see. Yeah.
[1:49:51]
Yes, sir.
[1:49:52]
» Well, it's a good good to try.
[1:49:53]
» Absolutely. Why not?
[1:49:54]
» Absolutely. Absolutely.
[1:49:56]
» We got the equipment.
[1:49:57]
» Yeah. Yeah. Absolutely. Um, then there
[1:50:00]
was also an update on the uh the
[1:50:02]
Veterans Memorial project which I shared
[1:50:04]
about I think a couple months ago. Um,
[1:50:07]
they're working with a contractor to try
[1:50:09]
to get uh try to get the footers and the
[1:50:12]
the base I think done. Lowest bidder was
[1:50:14]
two and a half months out. Um,
[1:50:18]
they're trying to get it done by
[1:50:19]
Veterans Day. So, I think it's a matter
[1:50:22]
of timing to see how quickly they can
[1:50:24]
they can get it done.
[1:50:26]
And then the last thing I think of
[1:50:28]
interest because finances have been a a
[1:50:30]
topic of conversation lately, uh the
[1:50:33]
cemeter cemetery uh superintendent is
[1:50:36]
looking at increasing rates for
[1:50:38]
different services the cemetery offers.
[1:50:40]
Um
[1:50:42]
I can get into detail, but I it's
[1:50:44]
probably a lot of things I don't really
[1:50:45]
know anything about, so I won't get too
[1:50:46]
much into detail, but um
[1:50:50]
but that's it in my report.
[1:50:52]
» All right. Thank you, Mr. Sears. contact
[1:50:55]
and special Mr. Walker.
[1:50:58]
» Thank you, Mr. President. Uh special
[1:50:59]
contact committee met this evening at
[1:51:01]
7:15. Um we had one item um to discuss
[1:51:05]

[1:51:07]
request for um SI Hospitality doing
[1:51:11]
business as Town Place Suites by
[1:51:13]
Marriott at 1298 West High Avenue. Um
[1:51:16]
after discussion, we um voted to put
[1:51:20]
this to full council vote this evening.
[1:51:22]
um we have no reason to feel that it
[1:51:25]
needs um a a hearing. So um we bring
[1:51:29]
this to full counsel for a vote. Um a
[1:51:31]
