00:00:11,980 --> 00:00:19,460
Good afternoon. Welcome to the regular meeting of the North Municipal Council on Wednesday, August 5th.

00:00:19,860 --> 00:00:26,720
Please stand for the National Anthem, Pledge of Allegiance, and invocation by Pastor Robert L. Cole, Jr.

4
00:03:05,400 --> 00:03:12,780
I greet you first in our sisters and our brothers, our Muslim family, our Salam Al-Iqam

5
00:03:12,780 --> 00:03:17,600
and I greet you all in that wonderful strong name of Jesus, our Lord and Savior.

6
00:03:18,080 --> 00:03:23,860
Mike, we pray, spirit of the living God, fall fresh here on today.

7
00:03:24,200 --> 00:03:28,340
Before we ask you for anything, we certainly want to thank you for everything.

8
00:03:28,940 --> 00:03:33,640
Lord, you are good, you have been better than good, we can't thank you enough.

9
00:03:33,640 --> 00:03:39,760
we owe you our lives. Lord, you have been so good to each and every one of us. You will allow

10
00:03:39,760 --> 00:03:45,060
us to come together once again one more time. And for that we say thank you. We ask you

11
00:03:45,060 --> 00:03:50,060
now God that you will forgive us for each of our trespass. As we forgive those who trespass

12
00:03:50,060 --> 00:03:55,040
against us, we pray now God that you will remember our counts of president, our counts of members.

13
00:03:55,460 --> 00:04:00,600
And God, I pray God that you will keep them now. God, I give them them now. Give them discernment

14
00:04:00,600 --> 00:04:05,780
Give them wisdom, God, to guide and learn and grow in this government.

15
00:04:06,140 --> 00:04:09,460
We pray now, God, that you will bless these great men and women here,

16
00:04:09,680 --> 00:04:12,640
this great city of North God, bless every business owner,

17
00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:15,720

18
00:04:15,740 --> 00:04:20,260
every one that's connected here in these five wars of North.

19
00:04:20,620 --> 00:04:23,440
Lord, we thank you now, God, for the fellowship.

20
00:04:23,960 --> 00:04:26,660
We pray now, God, that you will build a stronger bond,

21
00:04:26,840 --> 00:04:30,180
bridge it, Lord, between people and government.

22
00:04:30,180 --> 00:04:43,840
We pray now, God, that you will allow them to come to the microphone, and you will do what you have asked us to do in the word ask and it shall be given seek and we shall find not and the door shall be open.

23
00:04:44,200 --> 00:04:50,720
We come against you, enemy, we come against you, Satan who comes in to cause chaos, may have and destruction.

24
00:04:51,360 --> 00:04:56,900
We pray now, God, that you will fill the room, give us peace, give us order, and give us comfort.

25
00:04:56,900 --> 00:05:00,000
We love you today, and we thank you in advance for all the...

26
00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:11,660
True about to do and all that you will do, these and all the blessings we ask and the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, and together we say a mean, a man and thank God.

amending and supplementing cannabis regulations to add microconsumption, amending the manner

50
00:06:22,810 --> 00:06:23,470
of operations?

51
00:06:23,530 --> 00:06:24,810
Oh, no, hold on.

52
00:06:25,730 --> 00:06:32,030
We have, well, I can't listen because, to the general public, you know, you're going

53
00:06:32,030 --> 00:06:37,070
to have conversations, you know, as it's being perceived today, I'll be, we're actually

54
00:06:37,070 --> 00:06:40,230
the police going to the hallway or somewhere.

55
00:06:40,570 --> 00:06:46,050
If you have phones, please, or not, you realize the cell phones in this chambers, because

56
00:06:46,050 --> 00:06:52,030
we want to run this meeting in a rapidly and in a good and in a fashion that is the people's

57
00:06:52,030 --> 00:06:54,250
Thank you.

58
00:06:54,250 --> 00:06:55,250
Thank you, Council President.

59
00:06:56,690 --> 00:07:01,990
The mending manner of operations, arm security, and license fee.

60
00:07:02,410 --> 00:07:05,970
Sponsored by Councilman Council, second by Councilman Ramos.

61
00:07:06,610 --> 00:07:09,190
Is there anyone wishing to be heard on this ordinance?

62
00:07:11,540 --> 00:07:12,280
Yes, there's a speaker.

63
00:07:16,560 --> 00:07:17,940
Great day, Governor Salter.

64
00:07:18,220 --> 00:07:19,480
So this is a mending.

65
00:07:26,210 --> 00:07:31,430
Can we get a little more information about this?

66
00:07:31,430 --> 00:07:35,150
because the initial, because this is a minting the first one, right?

67
00:07:35,150 --> 00:07:39,490
And this is about, uh, let's see cannabis, and a cannabis establishment.

68
00:07:40,070 --> 00:07:41,050
Like, and, and that's the other thing.

69
00:07:41,070 --> 00:07:44,010
We don't need not a man of the, not neary,

70
00:07:44,230 --> 00:07:47,370
none of the cannabis shop in this city.

71
00:07:48,350 --> 00:07:50,050
We don't need not, none of the one.

72
00:07:51,310 --> 00:07:53,170
They're all over the place.

73
00:07:54,010 --> 00:07:58,110
Everywhere you go, around schools, around churches,

74
00:07:58,410 --> 00:07:59,950
we don't need another one.

75
00:08:01,430 --> 00:08:05,090
Let me say that before I get any more explanation on this.

76
00:08:06,810 --> 00:08:10,750
We need places that are going to give our people jobs with livable wages.

77
00:08:12,130 --> 00:08:13,270
You don't need any more drugs.

78
00:08:14,290 --> 00:08:18,510
Cannabis, I know, is grown from the earth, but by the time they put stuff in it and whoever's doing whatever.

79
00:08:19,190 --> 00:08:24,970
I'm saying in the city of New York, you can't go too far without running into a cannabis spot,

80
00:08:25,170 --> 00:08:29,610
smoke, shot, convenience spot, that's selling the paraphernalia.

81
00:08:31,430 --> 00:08:32,730
since we're on a topic.

82
00:08:33,450 --> 00:08:35,850
But I would like a little bit more information about this.

83
00:08:36,170 --> 00:08:37,070
This is a mending.

84
00:08:37,270 --> 00:08:40,650
I see it's talking about a mending establishment

85
00:08:41,310 --> 00:08:42,330
stops there.

86
00:08:42,630 --> 00:08:45,410
To add a subsection, micro-consumption.

87
00:08:45,590 --> 00:08:50,450
I know that there were certain what you call it.

88
00:08:50,690 --> 00:08:53,530
Permissions given for micro-growing it,

89
00:08:53,730 --> 00:08:56,070
for selling it, for transporting it.

90
00:08:56,370 --> 00:09:00,430
So if this micro-consumption is that,

91
00:09:00,430 --> 00:09:03,910
The meeting chapter two, the ask five, we need information.

92
00:09:05,330 --> 00:09:07,230
Armed security, okay, I understand you,

93
00:09:07,330 --> 00:09:08,430
they need to have armed security,

94
00:09:08,510 --> 00:09:11,510
and this is chapter 14, three to four licensed fees.

95
00:09:11,730 --> 00:09:15,750
Can someone break this down in very clear language

96
00:09:15,750 --> 00:09:17,330
because there's a lot of ambiguity

97
00:09:17,330 --> 00:09:20,350
as the attorney said the other day about the containers.

98
00:09:21,190 --> 00:09:22,790
There's a lot of ambiguity right here.

99
00:09:22,910 --> 00:09:25,770
So can we get a full explanation of what this is

100
00:09:25,770 --> 00:09:30,310
and why this cannabis establishment is important

101
00:09:30,310 --> 00:09:33,650
because we have a bunch of them in the city already.

102
00:09:35,470 --> 00:09:37,610
Okay, so we need things that are going to benefit

103
00:09:37,610 --> 00:09:41,630
with the people, not cannabis.

104
00:09:43,070 --> 00:09:46,230
You know, and our kids have to walk by this stuff.

105
00:09:46,470 --> 00:09:48,690
Some of them buying it.

106
00:09:49,010 --> 00:09:51,990
Some people are buying it and giving it to them.

107
00:09:53,620 --> 00:09:55,360
The edibles, all of the other stuff.

108
00:09:55,360 --> 00:09:59,060
So, we don't need anything in Northmore dealing with cannabis.

109
00:09:59,260 --> 00:09:59,960
That's what I'm saying.

110
00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:06,260
We, the people, are saying that. But can someone please give an explanation on this?

111
00:10:09,180 --> 00:10:09,820
Any other speaker?

112
00:10:13,080 --> 00:10:21,340
I did all what she just said. That result is. Thank you for that. At the end of the day, every time y'all come with these things,

113
00:10:21,880 --> 00:10:29,460
the ambiguity and the non-transparency and the level that you do not have details,

114
00:10:29,460 --> 00:10:32,520
It's not explained in anything to us.

115
00:10:32,800 --> 00:10:37,780
We saw a charlament in the God that y'all was all out there celebrating his cannabis thing

116
00:10:37,780 --> 00:10:42,580
on broad street, not far from a charter school, you didn't care.

117
00:10:43,340 --> 00:10:50,420
He was an in business six months, we had a revenues that were collected from these establishments.

118
00:10:50,640 --> 00:10:57,740
You got people operating now to their home, cannabis delivery, look it up on Google, they got

119
00:10:57,740 --> 00:11:05,320
address there. We aren't collecting revenues from these places and no accountability for

120
00:11:05,320 --> 00:11:11,780
that. So what is the detail in the changes that you're making here that's going to protect

121
00:11:11,780 --> 00:11:21,640
our young people and basically let the citizens know what money did and revenues y'all

122
00:11:21,640 --> 00:11:24,380
collect them from all these weed shops.

123
00:11:27,100 --> 00:11:35,420
Mr. President, before we move forward, so if we can have when we do these presentations,

124
00:11:35,420 --> 00:11:42,320
someone from the office come up to talk about them so that we don't have a large amount

125
00:11:42,320 --> 00:11:47,380
of individuals coming up, not sure about what it is, but this ordinance right here what

126
00:11:47,380 --> 00:11:52,480
it does is addresses the security concerns that some of the small business cannabis

127
00:11:52,480 --> 00:11:58,580
and the visitors have been having which required them to have 24 hours security on site

128
00:11:58,580 --> 00:12:05,340
when many of them also have to meet the security requirements of having cameras and other security

129
00:12:05,340 --> 00:12:12,340
devices inside of their facility as well as the outside. This helps them to allow them not to have

130
00:12:12,340 --> 00:12:20,020
24 hours security while they are not open and so while they are closed they are able to utilize

131
00:12:20,020 --> 00:12:25,100
all of the video camera footage, all of the information security systems that they have in place.

132
00:12:25,320 --> 00:12:31,260
And while they're open, they have to have to have the security in place to monitor the facilities

133
00:12:31,260 --> 00:12:36,000
and go through the processes of what needs to happen at those sites, why they're there.

134
00:12:36,340 --> 00:12:41,960
And so what was happening was that they were spending a large amount of dollars on overnight

135
00:12:41,960 --> 00:12:48,640
security as it relates to them trying to open up small businesses and working that way

136
00:12:48,640 --> 00:12:56,720
and be hammered by the enormous amount of costs that it would take for the small provide

137
00:12:56,720 --> 00:13:06,040
to be able to operate. And so what we've done was to work to amend the legislation to

138
00:13:06,040 --> 00:13:12,880
show that as long as they have all of the other recognizable security features in place that

139
00:13:12,880 --> 00:13:18,640
would not have to, when their hours of operation are closed, have a 24-hour person on

140
00:13:18,640 --> 00:13:19,120
tonight.

141
00:13:21,440 --> 00:13:23,700
Ms. Freeman, can we have someone from the administration?

142
00:13:24,420 --> 00:13:24,680
Yes.

143
00:13:24,980 --> 00:13:25,260
Please.

144
00:13:25,560 --> 00:13:25,840
Thank you.

145
00:13:31,880 --> 00:13:34,300
Good afternoon, Council President, Council Member.

146
00:13:34,460 --> 00:13:39,680
It's been a walker for the cannabis program regarding the breakdown for the amendment.

147
00:13:40,420 --> 00:13:45,900
So as for everything, Councilman Council said, that is 100% correct.

148
00:13:45,900 --> 00:13:55,020
we are amending the microconsumption we're adding that on because we currently do only have four

149
00:13:55,020 --> 00:14:01,700
operating dispensaries and we're updating the security ordinance as well to help the businesses

150
00:14:01,700 --> 00:14:07,140
because as of right now they only have 24 hours security that was killing their market and

151
00:14:07,140 --> 00:14:11,340
all the money that they were trying to bring in and so we're just trying to help them build that out

152
00:14:11,340 --> 00:14:16,140
and we want to start treating them as we treat restaurants and liquor stores so we're breaking

153
00:14:16,140 --> 00:14:21,500
down so only the operating hours. They have cages, they have the security

154
00:14:21,500 --> 00:14:25,100
while they're operating and then they also have like all this stuff

155
00:14:25,100 --> 00:14:28,700
underground and they have all the locks and cages and stuff like that. So that's

156
00:14:28,700 --> 00:14:31,480
going to help them do all the extra security work inside.

157
00:14:33,890 --> 00:14:36,050
As for the zoning

158
00:14:36,050 --> 00:14:40,190
regulations you do have this stuff regarding the schools, they can't be near

159
00:14:40,190 --> 00:14:44,350
schools, they can't be near churches. So before they even build out you have to go

160
00:14:44,350 --> 00:14:49,310
zoning. You have to go to buildings to get all this stuff approved before you move forward.

161
00:14:50,070 --> 00:14:53,310
So, therefore, if you guys have any other questions, you can just come to me.

162
00:14:53,450 --> 00:14:54,070
We'll go to council.

163
00:14:55,030 --> 00:14:55,370
Let's

164
00:14:58,340 --> 00:14:58,680
go.

165
00:14:58,960 --> 00:14:59,380
Thank you.

166
00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:00,880
This

167
00:15:03,760 --> 00:15:12,520
is the most ridiculous thing I ever heard. We're going to treat them like restaurants. Restaurants don't have a street value.

168
00:15:14,000 --> 00:15:25,000
There's a reason why most municipalities request this additional upgraded security, because when they go home, you get broken into it.

169
00:15:25,000 --> 00:15:31,560
So now you have something of value, not being protected because your police don't know how

170
00:15:31,560 --> 00:15:32,820
to review videos.

171
00:15:33,680 --> 00:15:34,760
They don't look at videos.

172
00:15:35,180 --> 00:15:41,900
I was just in the police station, a woman called in that her computer, her laptop was stolen

173
00:15:41,900 --> 00:15:43,180
and that she tracked it.

174
00:15:43,340 --> 00:15:47,060
We need a warrant to go get your computer.

175
00:15:47,060 --> 00:15:48,540
This is the thing.

176
00:15:48,580 --> 00:15:50,100
The ordinance is about arms security.

177
00:15:50,120 --> 00:15:50,980
Here's the dirty.

178
00:15:50,980 --> 00:15:54,980
The armed security is a reason why you have it.

179
00:15:55,140 --> 00:15:58,140
They're not dumbing down their ordinance in Bloomfield.

180
00:15:58,520 --> 00:16:02,920
They're not dumbing down their ordinances in any other municipality, other than this one.

181
00:16:03,260 --> 00:16:04,700
You already have lawlessness.

182
00:16:05,120 --> 00:16:07,220
You already are downcops, cops.

183
00:16:07,360 --> 00:16:10,280
You don't have enough officers to respond to things.

184
00:16:10,720 --> 00:16:13,520
So let's just make another target.

185
00:16:13,520 --> 00:16:18,100
You're painting a big target on the dispensaries, okay?

186
00:16:18,100 --> 00:16:23,600
whether they're micro dosing or macro dosing or whatever it is that they're supplying.

187
00:16:26,390 --> 00:16:31,950
Now it's going to be housed. Now folk are going to scheme on how to break into these buildings.

188
00:16:32,730 --> 00:16:40,690
And some of these dispensaries border schools and people's homes. So now you're just making

189
00:16:40,690 --> 00:16:45,890
the nuisance, like the nuisance of the recycling that you don't collect that was supposed to

190
00:16:45,890 --> 00:16:51,790
So like to reduce our taxes, now we have one-during

191
00:16:51,790 --> 00:16:55,710
crackets and other folks coming from the community.

192
00:16:56,610 --> 00:16:59,430
We're talking about, I can't talk about it now.

193
00:16:59,870 --> 00:17:02,790
I'm talking about homelessness that goes hand-in-hand.

194
00:17:03,270 --> 00:17:10,410
You're dumbing down the ordinance that was put in place so that

195
00:17:10,410 --> 00:17:15,710
these, these dispensaries are safer and safer in our community.

196
00:17:16,550 --> 00:17:21,510
Let's just throw safety out the window like you done with recycling, like you do with everything else.

197
00:17:21,810 --> 00:17:22,710
This is ridiculous.

198
00:17:23,610 --> 00:17:25,530
So I'm waiting for somebody to get shot.

199
00:17:25,750 --> 00:17:30,190
I'm gonna keep this video and yeah.

200
00:17:30,190 --> 00:17:35,230
I'm not waiting for no one to get shot.

201
00:17:35,590 --> 00:17:36,010
Thank you.

202
00:17:36,210 --> 00:17:36,950
Any other speakers?

203
00:17:37,910 --> 00:17:39,810
And of course, do you know the speakers?

204
00:17:40,670 --> 00:17:41,290
Yes, Mr. President.

205
00:17:42,350 --> 00:17:50,350
Yes, I apologize for coming in late, but I just wanted to be noted as a permitive for

206
00:17:51,170 --> 00:17:59,150
the courts and other ordinances that I have missed a vote on.

207
00:17:59,410 --> 00:18:04,310
And also just wanted to comment on this, I walked in and met way through the discussion.

208
00:18:04,310 --> 00:18:15,450
A North is the only municipality in the state that was requiring a 24-hour arm security for these cannabis establishments.

209
00:18:15,850 --> 00:18:26,070
People know that from day one I've been a little bit concerned about the community impact of these kind of operations within the city.

210
00:18:26,070 --> 00:18:37,390
And the reality is that we have very few businesses connected to the cannabis industry that have been able to successfully establish themselves in North.

211
00:18:37,970 --> 00:18:48,390
And one of the reasons why is that the city has regulated the industry on top of the regulations that the state has imposed on the industry.

212
00:18:48,390 --> 00:18:56,770
So it's made a very difficult for some of these very small businesses to operate successfully within the city.

213
00:18:57,330 --> 00:19:08,410
And one of the challenges that they have communicated to the administration about is the costs associated with having a 24 hour armed security.

214
00:19:08,410 --> 00:19:14,590
Now, there are other mechanisms that they could utilize, you know, surveillance equipment,

215
00:19:15,230 --> 00:19:21,430
they could have security in place during operational hours, but to have them be required

216
00:19:21,430 --> 00:19:29,390
to pay somebody 24 hours a day to secure their facility, even when they're closed, and many

217
00:19:29,390 --> 00:19:34,770
instances created an environment where it wasn't even worth it for some of these businesses

218
00:19:34,770 --> 00:19:39,770
to decide to open up their establishments within the city of Nordic.

219
00:19:39,950 --> 00:19:44,930
They could easily go to Bloomfield, they could easily go to Trenton, to Patterson, and

220
00:19:44,930 --> 00:19:46,650
they don't have those same requirements.

221
00:19:47,510 --> 00:19:52,610
So that's the reason why the administration is looking to set up some alternatives to

222
00:19:52,610 --> 00:19:55,650
the 24 hour mandated arm security.

223
00:19:58,140 --> 00:19:59,760
Let's speak, Colonel.

224
00:20:00,000 --> 00:20:08,620
Speaker, he was on his way, but my name is Leah, I live at 10th, I live at 10th, 60th, 40th street.

225
00:20:09,500 --> 00:20:19,880
And when I'm going to talk about my problem number is, for 26th, this is regarding the ordinance.

226
00:20:20,900 --> 00:20:29,500
So this has not been the ordinance on security for cannabis. And that's only the only

227
00:20:29,500 --> 00:20:35,620
item that you can speak towards. If you're on the list to speak on the public list and

228
00:20:35,620 --> 00:20:39,940
that that time will be given the time.

229
00:20:40,600 --> 00:20:47,340
Well, what are you trying to say? This, while living, this prayer is some kind of chemical,

230
00:20:48,200 --> 00:20:50,300
and my father is made to be sick.

231
00:20:50,460 --> 00:20:58,120
Sir, can we have someone, Anthony or someone, can someone staff meet with you and take the information

232
00:20:58,120 --> 00:21:03,680
what you're saying because we're on an ordinance of the basically is talking about

233
00:21:03,680 --> 00:21:07,660
something different. So this gentleman right here will take your information.

234
00:21:08,860 --> 00:21:09,880
Thank you.

235
00:21:12,760 --> 00:21:14,460
I don't care. I don't see any other speakers.

236
00:21:15,300 --> 00:21:15,900
Welcome.

237
00:21:19,220 --> 00:21:20,560
Yes. Council.

238
00:21:26,820 --> 00:21:27,020
Yes.

239
00:21:27,820 --> 00:21:30,360
Ramos. Yes.

240
00:21:30,840 --> 00:21:31,140
Yes.

241
00:21:34,280 --> 00:21:34,380
Yes.

242
00:21:36,280 --> 00:21:39,360
Council President Council members before we go to the next ordinance.

243
00:21:39,360 --> 00:21:44,560
I just want to state for the record that Councilman Silva has an excuse absence for the record.

244
00:21:44,740 --> 00:21:46,360
Note it.

245
00:21:47,900 --> 00:21:48,460
Please.

246
00:21:50,560 --> 00:21:52,160
I want to be fair.

247
00:21:52,780 --> 00:21:57,100
We listen to you and no one up here was trying to disturb you.

248
00:21:57,340 --> 00:21:57,880
Your conversation.

249
00:21:58,580 --> 00:22:02,920
So please move forward if you have some comments when you're going to have to please not.

250
00:22:03,340 --> 00:22:07,240
Because it doesn't help those people who are behind.

251
00:22:07,240 --> 00:22:15,340
I like the city clerk too because you're talking behind the person and it's striking please

252
00:22:15,340 --> 00:22:19,240
we urge you to please cooperate with us.

253
00:22:19,440 --> 00:22:20,080
Thank you.

254
00:22:20,180 --> 00:22:21,240
Thank you.

255
00:22:22,280 --> 00:22:29,260
Be is an ordinance authorizing the mayor and or his design need to execute the sale and transfer

256
00:22:29,260 --> 00:22:31,620
of properties for redevelopment.

257
00:22:31,880 --> 00:22:34,280
Is there anyone wishing to be heard on this ordinance?

258
00:22:34,680 --> 00:22:36,180
Is this speaker for us?

259
00:22:39,820 --> 00:22:45,920
Council President, you asked the last time at the Council meeting that Alice and

260
00:22:45,920 --> 00:22:53,060
Ladd last month, come to the table and give a breakdown of all the properties that

261
00:22:53,060 --> 00:22:57,800
are in investment work. What you have been doing every month, this

262
00:22:57,800 --> 00:22:58,460
Amen.

263
00:22:59,980 --> 00:23:00,240
Amen.

264
00:23:00,820 --> 00:23:01,540
For record.

265
00:23:02,340 --> 00:23:03,220
Lisa Parker.

266
00:23:04,620 --> 00:23:11,140
What you've been doing every month is authorizing the deputy mayor and investing

267
00:23:11,140 --> 00:23:18,300
newer for the sale and transfers of properties that you have and identified what properties

268
00:23:18,300 --> 00:23:19,600
they are.

269
00:23:19,980 --> 00:23:26,160
What we're seeing in these agendas every month is nothing but pork belly that you give into

270
00:23:26,160 --> 00:23:34,280
your friends, family, and donors, and under-estimating and under-assessing the value of

271
00:23:34,280 --> 00:23:40,840
these properties, so that you could resell them for pennies, but not for the open public.

272
00:23:41,540 --> 00:23:47,880
Now if all of these properties are being housed within investment newer, and for the last

273
00:23:47,880 --> 00:23:56,160
five years, I was in that concierge and says, I'll get it to you and hasn't done it yet.

274
00:23:56,880 --> 00:24:04,140
I don't want to see another ordinance like this for you to approve unless you are detailing

275
00:24:04,140 --> 00:24:06,780
what properties you're talking about.

276
00:24:07,200 --> 00:24:15,140
And I want to ask the question once again, which properties are you transferring and selling

277
00:24:15,140 --> 00:24:25,040
and to whom, out of investment, we have it now, Nina Somone, all of these quasi-re-nane

278
00:24:25,040 --> 00:24:30,880
rebranded developments that we're not collecting revenues from investment.

279
00:24:34,190 --> 00:24:36,650
And we wonder why the city is pro.

280
00:24:37,830 --> 00:24:43,290
Because not only aren't you collecting the real assessment of the, and I don't care if

281
00:24:43,290 --> 00:24:52,090
raise a rate from $6 per square foot to $17, you're reducing the excess amount so that you

282
00:24:52,090 --> 00:24:58,830
could continue to sell it for nothing and have people purchase it, there's not Newarkers

283
00:24:58,830 --> 00:24:59,970
So they could turn...

284
00:25:00,000 --> 00:25:04,560
Down in flip it, for a half a million, million dollars.

285
00:25:06,180 --> 00:25:12,960
Then needs to be some accountability out of investment work and stop with all the non-transparency

286
00:25:12,960 --> 00:25:19,980
of transferring the property and the sale of it and given permission and you legislate

287
00:25:19,980 --> 00:25:21,880
is not acts in the questions.

288
00:25:24,640 --> 00:25:27,060
That's real talk, accountability,

289
00:25:28,420 --> 00:25:31,920
while you saddle in the homeowner's in the dead,

290
00:25:32,900 --> 00:25:34,700
while you're not collecting revenues.

291
00:25:36,360 --> 00:25:37,140
Any other speakers?

292
00:25:40,420 --> 00:25:40,900
They're personas.

293
00:25:41,540 --> 00:25:47,680
So the last meeting, and Ramos brought this year's

294
00:25:47,680 --> 00:25:52,940
ago as well, and where we align with these properties.

295
00:25:52,940 --> 00:25:59,080
Last meeting he talked about properties that were sold for pennies and they quadriple to sell

296
00:25:59,080 --> 00:26:03,940
They sold it to one person and that person sold it to another person and then it's out of out of our hands

297
00:26:04,740 --> 00:26:11,720
Alice and I want them upset because they said they were going to do this and they didn't do it, but now they did this and what are we going to do?

298
00:26:12,380 --> 00:26:18,160
We right the details are in the double the double as in the details the contracts that's what the details are

299
00:26:19,040 --> 00:26:21,680
So if it's not written, it's not done

300
00:26:22,180 --> 00:26:26,220
You talk my old, it was eight dollars we sold the property for. Now we're, we're

301
00:26:26,220 --> 00:26:30,060
at least raised it. You should have been charged in 2838 dollars per square foot

302
00:26:30,060 --> 00:26:35,300
footies of industrial blacks. It's said a given in the way for pennies.

303
00:26:36,260 --> 00:26:41,760
Under assessing it, even if it's assessed at one price, it's sold for much less.

304
00:26:42,620 --> 00:26:50,600
Because it's people you know. What? But then we, the people, are saddled with the debt.

305
00:26:50,600 --> 00:26:57,460
our taxes go up. We have to fill the bill that's been left by those who come here and get

306
00:26:57,460 --> 00:26:58,700
the whole candy stove.

307
00:27:00,760 --> 00:27:04,100
But when we say this, you're looking at us like we're crazy and you know

308
00:27:04,100 --> 00:27:10,160
the deals that are made. You'll know it's. Ramos has been asking the same questions the

309
00:27:10,160 --> 00:27:14,980
years he's been up in. There was supposed to be a list given by Alice in

310
00:27:14,980 --> 00:27:21,100
like Lisa Farka said, the last time, always ask, where's the list, where are the properties,

311
00:27:21,480 --> 00:27:26,020
what makes you choose this developer, over that developer, what makes them get the property,

312
00:27:26,240 --> 00:27:30,720
and the other person doesn't get the property, how many bits were given, none of these answers

313
00:27:30,720 --> 00:27:37,720
are given, ever, which makes you the council ineffective, because I told cats all can turn

314
00:27:37,720 --> 00:27:42,980
outside, yes, they don't even realize the power that you hold, you in these seats don't

315
00:27:42,980 --> 00:27:45,040
realize the power that you hold,

316
00:27:47,150 --> 00:27:50,530
you understand everybody, it's supposed to be held accountable

317
00:27:50,530 --> 00:27:57,550
under you. You, you have the power to veto smack it down, if it's something's in a budget,

318
00:27:57,750 --> 00:28:02,370
I don't want that, no, we're not doing this properly. And who's going to check you?

319
00:28:04,780 --> 00:28:05,320
You're sitting

320
00:28:05,320 --> 00:28:10,780
up here, powerless, when all the power is given to you by the foster act,

321
00:28:13,280 --> 00:28:13,560
you don't

322
00:28:17,980 --> 00:28:22,700
know it,

323
00:28:22,700 --> 00:28:25,360
because it's not benefiting, we the people.

324
00:28:27,020 --> 00:28:27,940
Where are these properties?

325
00:28:28,820 --> 00:28:31,980
It needs to be made available to every citizen.

326
00:28:33,580 --> 00:28:36,180
Not just who you want to give it to.

327
00:28:37,000 --> 00:28:38,200
Now let's stop the madness.

328
00:28:39,500 --> 00:28:41,700
And have her require her to get here with this.

329
00:28:42,520 --> 00:28:42,770
Thank you.

330
00:28:43,880 --> 00:28:44,240
Excuse me.

331
00:28:49,130 --> 00:28:51,550
Good afternoon, I dare a brown-locked New Jersey.

332
00:28:52,130 --> 00:28:56,670
Don't mean to be a broken-backer, but let's bring up the facts.

333
00:28:56,670 --> 00:28:57,330
there

334
00:29:00,140 --> 00:29:10,580
is the exhibit. Where's the list? In the past, we have these ordinance. You want individuals to come up and talk about it. We don't know what we're talking about.

335
00:29:10,760 --> 00:29:13,140
Half the time because the information is not here.

336
00:29:16,300 --> 00:29:18,040
Where are the properties? What are we selling?

337
00:29:18,460 --> 00:29:21,240
We have so many homeless people in the city that we sell in property.

338
00:29:24,870 --> 00:29:28,110
The problem that we're having is you want us to speak of our opinions.

339
00:29:28,110 --> 00:29:30,970
but nothing is very clear in what we in explained.

340
00:29:31,370 --> 00:29:32,430
I act going forward.

341
00:29:32,850 --> 00:29:35,950
Let's document who's actually supporting these ordinance,

342
00:29:36,410 --> 00:29:40,070
who's actually suggesting it's supporting it.

343
00:29:40,550 --> 00:29:42,330
Also, where's the information?

344
00:29:42,570 --> 00:29:43,530
It's very vague.

345
00:29:43,750 --> 00:29:45,130
It's just a block of information.

346
00:29:45,470 --> 00:29:46,890
We don't understand that citizens.

347
00:29:47,970 --> 00:29:49,370
We would like to know more.

348
00:29:49,850 --> 00:29:52,870
Because this is a very, very important subject

349
00:29:52,870 --> 00:29:54,790
that keeps coming up.

350
00:29:54,790 --> 00:29:59,750
It shouldn't be where you have your direct the departmentate come.

351
00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:09,660
Economic and housing development coming later with, oh, this, this information should be before the council and the citizens, we should have this information beforehand.

352
00:30:10,300 --> 00:30:14,460
We shouldn't come here, just read this and try to figure out what's going on.

353
00:30:14,680 --> 00:30:21,960
Because when you read this, what are we really saying? Are we so in property? Are we established in property?

354
00:30:21,960 --> 00:30:27,260
is this like the Lions Gage that's been in Lingles in 2022, but I'm going to stick to this

355
00:30:27,260 --> 00:30:32,320
ordinance because it's talking about the transfer of the city of North properties. I identified

356
00:30:32,320 --> 00:30:38,440
on exhibit, is it on exhibit A, pursuant? It's no period, no comma. I'm not really sure.

357
00:30:39,400 --> 00:30:45,920
We need more information. This is very vague. And then in a few months, you're going to come back and say,

358
00:30:46,200 --> 00:30:51,560
oh, well, this was supposed to happen. We ask questions. Nothing should go forward if you're not fully

359
00:30:51,560 --> 00:30:59,300
of everything that's going on. And again, the constituents need to know, you need to break it down

360
00:30:59,300 --> 00:31:06,040
for us to understand. Because if you ask anyone, what does this really mean? I don't need the other

361
00:31:06,040 --> 00:31:11,060
person to come in and explain it. I need for you guys that's voting on it to understand. So we

362
00:31:11,060 --> 00:31:17,680
could know when we call your office in the future. Don't want to be a broken record, but everyone

363
00:31:17,680 --> 00:31:23,380
has made a great point. It's not enough information stated and going forward. I understand

364
00:31:23,380 --> 00:31:28,420
this is a book all the time. We need more information. Thank you.

365
00:31:28,680 --> 00:31:29,020
Next speaker.

366
00:31:32,080 --> 00:31:40,900
In ordinance, authorizing graph, malfeasance, we can just ask Joe McCollum. Oh, wait, we can.

367
00:31:41,700 --> 00:31:49,600
When are you guys going to learn? You put these vagodies here and you think that everybody

368
00:31:49,600 --> 00:32:00,900
in the city of Newark and in City Council all here is drug-addled and that we just don't have any common sense.

369
00:32:01,280 --> 00:32:06,520
Who are you selling it to? What are the values? What are they valued at? Where are these properties?

370
00:32:07,060 --> 00:32:11,520
How did you get these properties? What is the bottom line?

371
00:32:11,520 --> 00:32:15,560
And when Allison said, oh, well, they took the property,

372
00:32:15,740 --> 00:32:17,480
then they sold it, then they did this.

373
00:32:17,480 --> 00:32:19,280
What kind of contracts are you writing?

374
00:32:19,600 --> 00:32:20,660
Who's writing that?

375
00:32:20,740 --> 00:32:24,180
Well, what law school did your attorneys go to?

376
00:32:24,360 --> 00:32:25,740
They need to get their money back.

377
00:32:26,160 --> 00:32:29,800
You need to get new attorneys that know how to write contracts.

378
00:32:31,400 --> 00:32:32,320
This is ridiculous.

379
00:32:33,400 --> 00:32:36,340
And oh, well, we don't have the paperwork.

380
00:32:36,640 --> 00:32:39,140
You got 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 lines.

381
00:32:39,140 --> 00:32:41,360
It should be online.

382
00:32:42,640 --> 00:32:44,460
You should have a live platform

383
00:32:44,740 --> 00:32:48,400
where we can all access all the information

384
00:32:48,400 --> 00:32:50,920
about what's going on with the city.

385
00:32:51,300 --> 00:32:53,900
Your site looks like 1986

386
00:32:53,900 --> 00:32:57,240
and that some of the high school students put it together.

387
00:32:58,040 --> 00:32:59,540
You can't access anything.

388
00:33:00,540 --> 00:33:01,960
The links don't work.

389
00:33:02,460 --> 00:33:04,540
It's ridiculous and you do that purposefully.

390
00:33:05,060 --> 00:33:06,260
Like this is purposeful.

391
00:33:08,000 --> 00:33:14,060
This little cabala that you guys set up is a performative act.

392
00:33:14,640 --> 00:33:17,280
You just have to do this for the law.

393
00:33:18,160 --> 00:33:21,900
You're not interested in actually doing what's right.

394
00:33:24,690 --> 00:33:27,710
How many millions of dollars are these properties worth?

395
00:33:27,870 --> 00:33:28,910
Are they worth a dollar?

396
00:33:29,130 --> 00:33:30,470
How are you getting this assessment?

397
00:33:30,470 --> 00:33:31,650
good to the assessments.

398
00:33:33,830 --> 00:33:41,470
This needs to be on an active website that every resident 300,000

399
00:33:41,470 --> 00:33:50,010
people can access and see what's going on. And see what's going on with UCC and code enforcement.

400
00:33:51,330 --> 00:33:57,690
And we can tap a button and get the person who's working on this. We can tap a button and send a

401
00:33:57,690 --> 00:34:05,070
to Allison send me this form, and it should be a live PDF that she can just go boom,

402
00:34:05,270 --> 00:34:11,870
they could go, that you can read it for yourselves. And you will know how to do that. This is a 21st century.

403
00:34:13,290 --> 00:34:19,490
You can't tell that by the roof and all the stuff all in the apartment in here in this building,

404
00:34:19,490 --> 00:34:31,590
But I know that you've sold the Kruger Mansion, Kruger Stock Mansion, which had a $40,000,000 investment for under $100,000, which I'll do it.

405
00:34:31,830 --> 00:34:34,770
How do you do that? How is something for $40,000?

406
00:34:34,790 --> 00:34:35,350
Thanks, Speaker.

407
00:34:36,270 --> 00:34:42,410
Thank you, Mr. Chair. Before Mr. Mahana get up and speak, can we please have somebody from EHD to come up?

408
00:34:42,470 --> 00:34:48,650
And will we do these second readings? Can we please have someone from the administration get up and explain what's

409
00:34:48,650 --> 00:34:54,230
I can't explain it, but I also do want to note that you can find this information on the website.

410
00:34:54,470 --> 00:34:59,990
You go to ESD, you can pull up, you can pull up the information from the council meeting, you can look at the...

411
00:35:01,550 --> 00:35:24,290
All of the attachments to it and be able to go over those attachments. But in instances like this, when we get to second readings and we recognize that some people may not want to go to the website to pull the information up because it is more prudent for them to assume that they don't know. But what helps them is to have someone get up and explain what is happening and what is going on.

412
00:35:24,290 --> 00:35:28,410
We can have some more questions, and I'm only going to have a second of my second.

413
00:35:28,970 --> 00:35:29,930
Well, that's necessary.

414
00:35:29,930 --> 00:35:30,610
That's just to this.

415
00:35:30,630 --> 00:35:33,090
That's necessary to you, right now.

416
00:35:33,410 --> 00:35:39,210
And then moving forward, on second, we will, on third, moving forward, the future.

417
00:35:40,050 --> 00:35:46,650
We will do a presentation prior to the speaker's coming up that will be someone from the

418
00:35:46,650 --> 00:35:48,730
administration moving forward.

419
00:35:48,730 --> 00:35:53,690
So moving forward on these second and final, we will

420
00:35:53,690 --> 00:35:58,090
able to say, person from that department to come and explain.

421
00:35:58,890 --> 00:36:03,210
So all the business administrator, and then we will proceed with hearing the

422
00:36:03,210 --> 00:36:04,610
hitters, areas, and services.

423
00:36:04,770 --> 00:36:05,830
Thank you, Councilman.

424
00:36:06,110 --> 00:36:06,750
As an audience.

425
00:36:07,130 --> 00:36:07,450
Thank you.

426
00:36:07,890 --> 00:36:08,710
Thank you.

427
00:36:08,710 --> 00:36:09,490
Good afternoon.

428
00:36:09,490 --> 00:36:10,290
I leave my comment.

429
00:36:10,810 --> 00:36:16,450
My question is, it has a exhibit to the agreement, and I can't find it in here.

430
00:36:16,450 --> 00:36:21,930
could you say what the address is, at least, thank you. I don't need a whole year's

431
00:36:21,930 --> 00:36:26,790
liberty, but I don't need a whole investment. You know, I just need to know what we

432
00:36:26,790 --> 00:36:28,510
talk about.

433
00:36:28,790 --> 00:36:33,970
Well, then Cookersman, finish, then we'll have. Thank you. Cookersman, someone from the

434
00:36:33,970 --> 00:36:34,570
administration,

435
00:36:38,590 --> 00:36:43,150
someone from the Department of Economic Development, please name

436
00:36:43,150 --> 00:36:43,810
from the record.

437
00:36:47,390 --> 00:36:50,410
Good afternoon, Randy Daniel legislative coordinator for Economic

438
00:36:50,410 --> 00:36:55,160
housing development. I will address everybody's concerns and questions at this time.

439
00:36:56,410 --> 00:37:01,330
And regardless of the addresses, there are six addresses. 34 right street,

440
00:37:02,450 --> 00:37:12,090
483 Leslie Street, 650 South 11th Street, 55 Kent Street, 850 South 19th Street,

441
00:37:12,090 --> 00:37:15,430
and 307 South 18th Street.

442
00:37:18,790 --> 00:37:20,350
All of these properties were,

443
00:37:21,590 --> 00:37:24,230
sorry, sorry, but we want to listen to this speaker.

444
00:37:24,970 --> 00:37:27,510
Listen, that we listen, they listen to you,

445
00:37:27,550 --> 00:37:29,050
and it's time for you to listen to this speaker.

446
00:37:29,230 --> 00:37:32,590
Please, if not just, it is right.

447
00:37:32,710 --> 00:37:33,670
We're running a government,

448
00:37:34,430 --> 00:37:35,930
and we have to run it right.

449
00:37:36,410 --> 00:37:37,010
And we're going to do that.

450
00:37:39,470 --> 00:37:40,430
Thank you.

451
00:37:41,190 --> 00:37:42,970
These particular properties were,

452
00:37:42,970 --> 00:37:50,210
of the solicitation by the department in order to help us to gain more affordable housing within the city.

453
00:37:51,870 --> 00:37:57,270
We had a information session that was held here in Council Chambers on January 30, 2026.

454
00:37:57,990 --> 00:38:07,850
We had over a hundred developers that were present for this information session and that was also the same day that they were able to pick up packages to submit their solicitations for these particular properties.

455
00:38:07,850 --> 00:38:19,930
All of these properties have very extreme rehabilitation, they have structures on them that are very

456
00:38:19,930 --> 00:38:23,890
deplorable and need fixing and need a lot of financing for it.

457
00:38:24,310 --> 00:38:29,390
The qualifications to, in order for you to get these properties, we gave Newark Developers

458
00:38:29,390 --> 00:38:33,530
First Dips on these properties, everyone else came second.

459
00:38:34,350 --> 00:38:41,790
You had to show proof of finances so that you could be able to rehabilitate this property.

460
00:38:42,390 --> 00:38:46,970
You also had to give us a very detailed description of what you're planning to do with the rehabilitation.

461
00:38:48,650 --> 00:38:53,750
Add of the six developers that were chosen, unfortunately one of them was not from the city of Newark

462
00:38:53,750 --> 00:38:59,870
and that was because for that particular property there were three respondents for that property to from Newark

463
00:38:59,870 --> 00:39:05,550
one from the developer that won the bid. Unfortunately, the two developers from Newark were not able

464
00:39:05,550 --> 00:39:12,310
to provide financial information or give a very descriptive project rehabilitation description.

465
00:39:12,870 --> 00:39:17,990
Therefore, unfortunately, the developer from another city was awarded that particular property.

466
00:39:19,490 --> 00:39:25,070
And as part of their deed restriction and this rehabilitation, they are required for all

467
00:39:25,070 --> 00:39:29,330
of the housing to be affordable, at 50% are below of AMI.

468
00:39:32,200 --> 00:39:33,240
Any other questions on me?

469
00:39:33,600 --> 00:39:35,540
That's either rent to a sale,

470
00:39:35,700 --> 00:39:39,200
so they either have to rent at 50% or below AMI,

471
00:39:39,420 --> 00:39:43,120
but they have to resell the property at 50% AMI or below.

472
00:39:43,280 --> 00:39:44,200
That is correct, Councillor.

473
00:39:44,640 --> 00:39:45,360
Councillor and Kelly.

474
00:39:49,850 --> 00:39:50,650
Great day to you.

475
00:39:50,830 --> 00:39:54,090
So you see in the person that wasn't from Newark

476
00:39:54,090 --> 00:39:58,050
that received the RFP, you're seeing that nobody else

477
00:39:58,050 --> 00:39:58,990
from Newark, New Jersey.

478
00:40:00,580 --> 00:40:10,400
I'm sorry. There were only three respondents for that particular property, two were from Newark, and the developer that I wanted to bid that was not from Newark. They were the only three that applied for that particular property.

479
00:40:11,080 --> 00:40:25,980
And how was the RFP process going out? I know that these are on the website and they're listed in the exhibit. How was the RFP process going out so that developers and people who would like to buy these properties notify?

480
00:40:25,980 --> 00:40:33,360
Yes, we did advertise on the website as well as social media, we sent out emails to

481
00:40:33,360 --> 00:40:37,700
possible developers to come to the information session as I stated we had over 100 developers

482
00:40:37,700 --> 00:40:42,360
here in the council chambers, but it was available on the website and social media for

483
00:40:42,360 --> 00:40:46,960
them to obtain solicitation or come to the Office of Department of Economic and Housing

484
00:40:46,960 --> 00:40:48,860
development to make up a hard copy.

485
00:40:50,300 --> 00:40:51,420
The other.

486
00:40:52,560 --> 00:40:54,260
My little clerk, Roko.

487
00:40:58,670 --> 00:40:59,430
One quick question.

488
00:40:59,610 --> 00:41:00,030
I'm sorry.

489
00:41:00,330 --> 00:41:00,970
I'm a statement.

490
00:41:02,350 --> 00:41:06,410
What I will ask for the administration to do is next time.

491
00:41:06,670 --> 00:41:11,010
Please list the properties in the agenda.

492
00:41:11,890 --> 00:41:17,230
So that we wouldn't have to sit up here with the people and the council going back and forth

493
00:41:17,230 --> 00:41:27,490
Because as council, we look on websites, we look in legislatures, sometimes the people don't have that access to do that and I think that it will save time.

494
00:41:27,950 --> 00:41:35,310
It will save a misunderstanding of what's going on. So I just asked that the administration lists the sites that are being sold.

495
00:41:35,310 --> 00:41:43,030
I'm quick as noted by a councilman Kelly who is forward that you as the clerk who prepares

496
00:41:43,030 --> 00:41:47,340
the agenda that these idleness be listed. Ward by Ward, Ward.

497
00:41:48,550 --> 00:41:48,890
Certainly.

498
00:41:53,170 --> 00:41:54,250
Yes.

499
00:41:55,570 --> 00:41:56,650
Yes.

500
00:41:59,030 --> 00:41:59,390
Yes.

501
00:42:00,010 --> 00:42:00,330
Yes.

502
00:42:01,470 --> 00:42:01,710
Kelly.

503
00:42:02,250 --> 00:42:02,590
Yes.

504
00:42:03,250 --> 00:42:03,590
Ramos.

505
00:42:05,210 --> 00:42:05,610
Yes.

506
00:42:07,470 --> 00:42:08,390
Scott Brownsley.

507
00:42:08,730 --> 00:42:09,190
Yes.

508
00:42:10,970 --> 00:42:11,830
President Kintana.

509
00:42:13,470 --> 00:42:13,530
Yes.

510
00:42:13,530 --> 00:42:16,270
Let me just come to you mark it all the way.

511
00:42:16,870 --> 00:42:18,530
Just finish good.

512
00:42:18,530 --> 00:42:20,010
Yeah, we finished it all the way.

513
00:42:20,750 --> 00:42:28,390
Oh, in my time here, because that AMI was dropped to 50% for me.

514
00:42:28,810 --> 00:42:31,070
And that's one of the things we are talking about.

515
00:42:31,250 --> 00:42:32,790
That's why I'm for this.

516
00:42:33,270 --> 00:42:35,870
Okay, I can't do it at the AMI we have,

517
00:42:36,290 --> 00:42:38,390
because I know most of us don't meet that.

518
00:42:38,610 --> 00:42:41,930
But then the economic development only to hit.

519
00:42:41,930 --> 00:42:44,850
and the economic development office is presentation.

520
00:42:46,770 --> 00:42:49,870
So here that the three people from the three people

521
00:42:49,870 --> 00:42:53,770
bear for the one property, and we didn't have the financing.

522
00:42:54,570 --> 00:42:57,370
If we know that's difficult, and our community as well,

523
00:42:57,630 --> 00:42:59,670
those are some things that we have to pull,

524
00:43:00,150 --> 00:43:01,950
departments in order to talk about the bonding,

525
00:43:02,290 --> 00:43:03,330
the insurance, the financing.

526
00:43:03,830 --> 00:43:06,010
We need to do those kind of business seminars,

527
00:43:06,510 --> 00:43:07,550
real business seminars.

528
00:43:07,750 --> 00:43:10,230
Not people coming in, trying to make money charging.

529
00:43:10,230 --> 00:43:14,450
people 50 dollars over this are you get quick and flip in the property. It's not what that's about.

530
00:43:14,970 --> 00:43:19,410
So we're going to have opportunities and I'm interested. I'm an advocate for pushing for

531
00:43:19,410 --> 00:43:24,410
workers to do what they have to do. We have to also understand that every LLC that has a

532
00:43:24,410 --> 00:43:31,270
North address is not a North girl, right? So with that being said, people have to, we have to learn the

533
00:43:31,270 --> 00:43:36,070
process, hold myself, because I don't know the process. But I'm not looking to buy property. Many people

534
00:43:36,070 --> 00:43:53,830
And I know it's been hard for residents that they feel to get property, but I think once we have a seminar of our own, we don't have to pay and come in and learn the business of how you become a part of this process, I think it becomes a little easier for us to be involved.

535
00:43:53,830 --> 00:44:00,010
So, I would like to see us economic development, the young lady that just came to make this

536
00:44:00,010 --> 00:44:06,790
fine for me, explain what that process looks like, how people that are looking to get into purchasing,

537
00:44:07,450 --> 00:44:13,530
get involved in that process through the chaos, and let the economic development office, as well as our

538
00:44:13,530 --> 00:44:18,970
office, no, I couldn't get through. I wasn't able to, because those are the kind of things that

539
00:44:18,970 --> 00:44:23,430
have to happen. But if the public doesn't say it, as we went back and forth with some issues yesterday,

540
00:44:23,430 --> 00:44:28,270
we don't know. So I'm just saying that we do need to do a process right now

541
00:44:28,270 --> 00:44:31,410
through economic development, not even, I didn't say nothing about investment.

542
00:44:31,990 --> 00:44:37,110
I said economic development showing people what the process is so they can engage in

543
00:44:37,110 --> 00:44:41,650
the process. I know there's a big push nationally, everybody that's a homeowner now

544
00:44:41,650 --> 00:44:47,030
to become an LLC, down to doesn't agree with that. But that is the push on the business side.

545
00:44:47,030 --> 00:44:54,890
So, I think that this parker should be a homeowner and be able to be a homeowner at

546
00:44:54,890 --> 00:44:57,690
another property without being in Parker L.L.C.

547
00:44:58,370 --> 00:44:59,950
So, I'd like to push for people too.

548
00:45:00,050 --> 00:45:30,890
Moving to that genre, it's a real push because people have called me about that as well. They don't even want to sell to someone if they're not a LLC. And I think that's wrong as well. If I have the finance, for my first house, to get another house, I should be able to do that. And we also must respect the right of the next door neighbor. I don't know the exact name, too. So just bear with me. But I know that some bear is a cause that the right of purchase for the person that lives next door to the property.

549
00:45:30,890 --> 00:45:32,930
to have the first preference on that property.

550
00:45:33,310 --> 00:45:35,530
We need to make sure that that's also happening

551
00:45:35,530 --> 00:45:37,970
in mislead with the North Prop thing.

552
00:45:38,370 --> 00:45:40,690
I look back as noted by Councilwoman Jackson.

553
00:45:41,490 --> 00:45:42,290
Thanks, sir.

554
00:45:42,470 --> 00:45:43,590
Moe, continue.

555
00:45:44,950 --> 00:45:48,730
C is an ordinance granting a 25-year tax abatement

556
00:45:48,730 --> 00:45:54,270
to 636 MLK urban renewal LLC for a project located

557
00:45:54,270 --> 00:45:55,450
in the Central Ward.

558
00:45:56,010 --> 00:45:57,250
Is there anyone wishing someone

559
00:45:57,250 --> 00:45:59,670
from the administration come prior to the speaker

560
00:45:59,670 --> 00:46:04,830
As we agreed and moving forward we would do someone from their menstruation

561
00:46:11,000 --> 00:46:13,140
someone from their menstruation to explain

562
00:46:15,960 --> 00:46:17,260
the sortings

563
00:46:23,740 --> 00:46:31,900
Before you counseling baby actually and thank you so much. Thank you, Council President actually what I was going to say is is that I've actually been

564
00:46:32,380 --> 00:46:39,860
Weeding in and before this meeting I was supposed to have information. I waited hopefully. I was going to get it yesterday. Hopefully. I was going to get it today. I still haven't received it

565
00:46:40,620 --> 00:46:42,320
haven't received information

566
00:46:43,720 --> 00:46:47,880
last month, and so I'm making motion to defer this.

567
00:46:49,460 --> 00:46:54,880
Second, and then take a roll full on the fur.

568
00:47:05,200 --> 00:47:08,100
Yes, for the fur.

569
00:47:08,480 --> 00:47:09,160
Yes.

570
00:47:10,020 --> 00:47:10,640
Yes.

571
00:47:11,460 --> 00:47:11,780
Yes.

572
00:47:12,460 --> 00:47:12,700
Yes.

573
00:47:14,040 --> 00:47:14,280
Kelly?

574
00:47:14,680 --> 00:47:15,020
Yes.

575
00:47:15,800 --> 00:47:16,100
Ramos?

576
00:47:16,960 --> 00:47:17,380
Yes.

577
00:47:19,960 --> 00:47:21,000
Yes.

578
00:47:25,480 --> 00:47:25,920
Resolutions.

579
00:47:27,440 --> 00:47:35,380
Seven R1A through you are resolutions from the Department of Administration with no sponsors.

580
00:47:36,620 --> 00:47:39,420
A through F are temporary emergency appropriations.

581
00:47:41,700 --> 00:47:43,700
G through Q are purchasing contracts.

582
00:47:43,700 --> 00:47:47,500
in our through you, our grants and contracts.

583
00:47:48,320 --> 00:47:51,900
Council is a whole to adopt a through you, please.

584
00:47:53,560 --> 00:47:53,900
Bay?

585
00:47:54,580 --> 00:47:55,060
Yes.

586
00:47:56,080 --> 00:47:56,680
Yes.

587
00:47:57,540 --> 00:47:57,680
Yes.

588
00:47:58,340 --> 00:47:58,780
Jackson?

589
00:47:59,580 --> 00:47:59,660
Yes.

590
00:48:01,440 --> 00:48:01,660
Would like to.

591
00:48:01,660 --> 00:48:01,820
Yes.

592
00:48:01,980 --> 00:48:03,120
Would like to speak on F.

593
00:48:05,200 --> 00:48:05,520
Continue.

594
00:48:06,320 --> 00:48:06,880
Can I leave?

595
00:48:07,220 --> 00:48:07,580
Yes.

596
00:48:09,920 --> 00:48:10,400
Yes.

597
00:48:11,300 --> 00:48:12,020
Got ground trees?

598
00:48:12,040 --> 00:48:12,620
Yes.

599
00:48:17,000 --> 00:48:25,900
I would like to change my vote to abstain.

600
00:48:26,100 --> 00:48:28,260
It's noted by Councilor Wooden Bay.

601
00:48:35,020 --> 00:48:35,620
Okay.

602
00:48:35,620 --> 00:48:40,680
I need to make a comment about seven or one-half.

603
00:48:40,960 --> 00:48:46,340
This is an emergency appropriation for $64 million for the month of August.

604
00:48:47,280 --> 00:48:56,560
And I need to, as the queen of stopping these emergency budget offerings, explain my yes.

605
00:48:57,920 --> 00:49:04,260
Because we have not secured a budget yet for 2026, if this does not pass, the employees

606
00:49:04,260 --> 00:49:10,640
of the city of North do not get paid. And although I know we are having, let me just say my

607
00:49:10,640 --> 00:49:17,120
piece, you can agree with this agree. Because we do not have a budget in place, if this emergency

608
00:49:18,060 --> 00:49:25,480
appropriation for the month of August is not passed, the employees that work for the city of North

609
00:49:25,480 --> 00:49:32,000
that deserve their paycheck. Next Friday the Friday afternoon, next one after that, they will not

610
00:49:32,000 --> 00:49:38,580
if we don't do this because there's not enough money is there or we have to prove for the money to be spent.

611
00:49:39,200 --> 00:49:44,780
So I did my due diligence, I don't need to have a conversation with Mr. P and some folks on the council,

612
00:49:45,200 --> 00:49:48,680
but I also called the local finance board to ensure that this is correct.

613
00:49:49,300 --> 00:49:54,020
Okay, because I'm not going to make a decision without having enough information for me.

614
00:49:54,560 --> 00:49:59,780
And so I need the public to understand as one that stood up with those papers, where the money was.

615
00:49:59,780 --> 00:50:00,000
Thank you.

616
00:50:00,210 --> 00:50:22,510
I have not changed from that, but I do understand that I need the employees of this city, who are having some difficulties, to not miss a paycheck, because we are in the middle of, and I know my council colleagues concur that we don't want anyone to go without a paycheck, we have responsibilities to take care of, it's right in the season of getting ready to go back to school.

617
00:50:22,510 --> 00:50:33,490
So, this is not the time to have folks that work for our city in a scramble to try to make financial decisions with no check.

618
00:50:33,990 --> 00:50:36,210
And what I mean is they won't get paid.

619
00:50:36,230 --> 00:50:38,850
I'm just going to hate, but that's going to say this Friday comment.

620
00:50:39,110 --> 00:50:42,650
And then to what we say won't get paid for August if this is not done today.

621
00:50:43,030 --> 00:50:48,650
And I need that these employees that work for us that do a good job to have their pay checks.

622
00:50:48,650 --> 00:50:53,750
Now, down the line, if we still scrambling, there'll be maybe a different decision made.

623
00:50:54,110 --> 00:50:59,550
Our council colleagues will cut her in the back and talk about it, but I am one who was

624
00:50:59,550 --> 00:51:05,510
against the temporary budget appropriations, however, in light of the information that I've had.

625
00:51:05,850 --> 00:51:12,950
I just need all of us to be clear, and you could still disagree with the decision, but I need

626
00:51:12,950 --> 00:51:18,230
to understand that if this does not happen today, the employees of the City of North will not be paid.

627
00:51:19,470 --> 00:51:25,530
Okay, so I just wanted to be clear and transparent, and Madam Clerk, I'd also like to go back,

628
00:51:25,950 --> 00:51:31,270
because we did make some note yesterday and have some discussion, and enjoy and enjoy my council colleague,

629
00:51:31,590 --> 00:51:40,010
Bay, on $7 or $1M, because we had a big discussion on that yesterday, and changed my vote to a note.

630
00:51:42,760 --> 00:51:43,200
Thank you.

631
00:51:44,180 --> 00:51:45,960
Madam Clerk, Councilman Kelly?

632
00:51:47,260 --> 00:51:47,300
Yeah.

633
00:51:47,300 --> 00:51:49,780
Kelly, thank you, Council President.

634
00:51:50,680 --> 00:51:54,280
I would like to ask G and H.

635
00:51:54,520 --> 00:51:55,400
Is there a second?

636
00:51:55,400 --> 00:51:55,920
Second.

637
00:51:55,960 --> 00:51:56,340
I can imagine.

638
00:51:56,800 --> 00:51:57,440
Round three.

639
00:51:57,960 --> 00:51:58,760
But I

640
00:52:02,250 --> 00:52:02,730
just know it.

641
00:52:05,320 --> 00:52:05,620
Okay.

642
00:52:07,240 --> 00:52:11,660
Just seven or two A through M.

643
00:52:11,680 --> 00:52:17,020
Our resolutions from the Department of Economic and Housing Development.

644
00:52:18,640 --> 00:52:20,780
A through K are private sales.

645
00:52:20,780 --> 00:52:29,880

01:02:36,020 --> 01:02:36,280
Council.

835
01:02:36,480 --> 01:02:37,020
Yes.

836
01:02:37,420 --> 01:02:38,040
Yes.

837
01:02:39,360 --> 01:02:39,880
Jackson.

838
01:02:40,320 --> 01:02:40,460
Yes.

839
01:02:40,460 --> 01:02:41,900
Kelly?

840
01:02:42,600 --> 01:02:42,900
Yes.

841
01:02:43,180 --> 01:02:43,560
Ramos?

842
01:02:44,560 --> 01:02:45,000
Yes.

843
01:02:45,460 --> 01:02:46,220
Got round three?

844
01:02:46,560 --> 01:02:46,740
Yes.

845
01:02:47,120 --> 01:02:47,700
President Kitana.

846
01:02:47,840 --> 01:02:48,120
Yes.

847
01:02:50,420 --> 01:02:55,540
B is a ceremonial street designation sponsored by Council President Gintana.

848
01:02:56,740 --> 01:02:57,900
Second, by Councillor Ramos.

849
01:03:00,680 --> 01:03:00,800
Local?

850
01:03:06,560 --> 01:03:06,880
Yes.

851
01:03:09,080 --> 01:03:09,380
Council?

852
01:03:09,740 --> 01:03:10,200
Yes.

853
01:03:11,140 --> 01:03:11,380
Yes.

854
01:03:11,860 --> 01:03:12,300
Jackson?

855
01:03:12,900 --> 01:03:13,000
Yes.

856
01:03:13,760 --> 01:03:14,040
Kelly?

857
01:03:14,320 --> 01:03:14,680
Yes.

858
01:03:15,160 --> 01:03:15,480
Ramos?

859
01:03:16,420 --> 01:03:16,820
Yes.

860
01:03:16,820 --> 01:03:18,600
I have a question.

861
01:03:21,600 --> 01:03:25,840
Administration has requested business administrator recording.

862
01:03:26,740 --> 01:03:31,260
Seven R to bash L.

863
01:03:33,180 --> 01:03:33,920
Thank you.

864
01:03:36,720 --> 01:03:37,800
Good afternoon, Councilman.

865
01:03:37,980 --> 01:03:38,140
Councillor Thompson.

866
01:03:38,340 --> 01:03:38,900
Councillor Thompson.

867
01:03:39,440 --> 01:03:39,500
Councillor Thompson.

868
01:03:44,120 --> 01:03:44,340
Councillor Thompson.

869
01:03:44,340 --> 01:03:47,680
the amendment to the budget for North Alliance.

870
01:03:47,980 --> 01:03:54,500
I think I neglected to explain what this particular amendment is.

871
01:03:54,640 --> 01:03:56,420
Certainly, I don't think I explained it adequately.

872
01:03:57,080 --> 01:04:00,020
The budget has already been adopted by the Council.

873
01:04:01,100 --> 01:04:05,900
This is an amendment to their budget to allow for them to pay the additional

874
01:04:05,900 --> 01:04:07,900
administrative fee to the city.

875
01:04:08,480 --> 01:04:12,520
It increased from 1% administrative fee to a 2% administrative fee.

876
01:04:12,520 --> 01:04:14,660
It does not increase their budget.

877
01:04:15,840 --> 01:04:22,180
What it does is the adequately reflects the costs for the city to administer the collection

878
01:04:22,180 --> 01:04:28,500
and distribution of the fees associated with the sit-and-out that goes to them.

879
01:04:29,100 --> 01:04:32,180
And if the council, I'm certain, I'm at an answer more questions, but if the council

880
01:04:32,180 --> 01:04:35,780
will consider reconsidering that the administration would be grateful.

881
01:04:41,340 --> 01:04:41,900
There's a pleasure.

882
01:04:42,000 --> 01:04:42,640
May I?

883
01:04:42,980 --> 01:04:43,360
Yes.

884
01:04:43,700 --> 01:04:43,720
It does.

885
01:04:43,960 --> 01:04:44,440
Thank you.

886
01:04:44,440 --> 01:04:48,080
I'm so present. I absolutely understand Mr. B.A.

887
01:04:48,080 --> 01:04:50,700
And I thank you for that explanation that we've talked about it before,

888
01:04:51,080 --> 01:04:55,400
but what I would also appreciate is if the administration would

889
01:04:58,260 --> 01:05:00,000
nudge if not required.

890
01:05:00,000 --> 01:05:29,160
I hear, North Alliance to provide us with the information that we've been asking for for the past few months, because there's a lot that's at stake here. There's a lot that goes, and I understand one may not necessarily affect the other, but we got to draw a line somewhere, because we're talking about, we're talking about the parks, we're talking about sanitation, we're talking about equipment, and we're talking about millions of dollars, like I mentioned yesterday, FIFA that was lost.

891
01:05:30,400 --> 01:05:35,920
businesses in our area and like I said, I can gradually make Michael Silver and the

892
01:05:35,920 --> 01:05:41,040
administration for what they did and I am bound that was phenomenal with nobody else

893
01:05:41,040 --> 01:05:46,660
got anything. And they have to respond to it because we met with them before and they

894
01:05:46,660 --> 01:05:52,420
made promises that I haven't heard any scene any evidence of since then and it was

895
01:05:52,420 --> 01:05:58,520
months before the world cup. And now we have parts that need to be receded downtown

896
01:05:58,520 --> 01:06:04,700
and military park, and we don't know what NDD is doing with downtown district and the cleanliness,

897
01:06:05,220 --> 01:06:10,860
and so I'm saying that there has to be some type of response. And so I understand what you're saying,

898
01:06:10,960 --> 01:06:18,880
and this makes perfect sense. And I get the reconsideration, but they need to be held accountable

899
01:06:18,880 --> 01:06:23,760
for something, and I don't feel that they have been. Well, thank you for that council on the day.

900
01:06:23,760 --> 01:06:31,980
If what I would like to propose then is to draft Councilman Crump as my aide and supporter

901
01:06:32,900 --> 01:06:34,600
not my aide, as in County.

902
01:06:35,880 --> 01:06:42,720
To aide in ensuring that we get the information to Councilman Bay and all Councilmembers,

903
01:06:42,920 --> 01:06:47,140
and I say Councilman Crump, because he and I sit on the North Alliance board, I sit on

904
01:06:47,140 --> 01:06:52,740
their barbershop of my role as a business administrator, and I'd like to ask that the clerk

905
01:06:52,740 --> 01:06:58,060
provide me with a letter with these specific information that you ask them and I will get that

906
01:06:58,060 --> 01:07:01,900
to the North Alliance and I'll get that answer and I'll make the representation to you now

907
01:07:01,900 --> 01:07:08,460
that we will do so that I'll follow up on that personally and my capacity as the board member

908
01:07:08,460 --> 01:07:13,520
and, again, solicit the support of Councilman Crump to ensure that we get an information.

909
01:07:14,200 --> 01:07:20,460
In addition, it sounds like the North Alliance and the NDD which still exists

910
01:07:20,460 --> 01:07:23,940
ought to come before the council and make a presentation.

911
01:07:24,480 --> 01:07:27,100
And so we will have that done as well.

912
01:07:27,580 --> 01:07:32,320
With respect to the parks, the seating, the North Parks Foundation still exists.

913
01:07:32,640 --> 01:07:37,340
So the five downtown parks right now are still under the control of the park.

914
01:07:37,620 --> 01:07:39,440
The foundation, North City Parks Foundation.

915
01:07:39,840 --> 01:07:43,920
But it too is in the process of becoming assumed into the North Alliance.

916
01:07:43,940 --> 01:07:47,860
So we should discuss that as well as part of the information that you want.

917
01:07:47,860 --> 01:07:54,880
And it makes perfect the good sense the public should have it. You should have it the entire all the residents of the city of Norkes should have that information

918
01:07:54,880 --> 01:07:57,840
I think it is the absolute appropriate and

919
01:07:58,420 --> 01:08:06,460
We will work to make sure that that happens to not work. I will happen. I'll just take on that labor and order to make sure that they appear in front of this council

920
01:08:07,240 --> 01:08:12,360
They'll be a letter and there will be a presentation. Yes, okay. There's no can we say when

921
01:08:12,360 --> 01:08:14,080
When is the presentation?

922
01:08:14,460 --> 01:08:28,200
Let me get the letter, but what I'm going to do is I'm going to present that to the interim director, the show on right, as soon as I get it, I assume tomorrow we'll get that.

923
01:08:28,220 --> 01:08:31,340
I think I have a meeting with him on Friday either tomorrow Friday.

924
01:08:31,520 --> 01:08:37,740
I'll make sure that they get that the presentation would be at our probably at our next special meeting.

925
01:08:38,620 --> 01:08:40,060
If we have, are we going to have a special meeting?

926
01:08:40,440 --> 01:08:40,940
No, no.

927
01:08:42,860 --> 01:08:50,540
So we'll have them come present in September, and I'm hoping that based on that representation,

928
01:08:51,040 --> 01:08:56,500
we could have the reconsideration now and I will follow up personally and you have my word.

929
01:08:57,280 --> 01:09:02,060
So if we could, those of us that have questions or the question, we can get that to you,

930
01:09:02,100 --> 01:09:07,100
and you can forward that to them. So when they come and make the presentation, we will have all the information,

931
01:09:07,100 --> 01:09:13,780
And that included, to send us an advance, a copy of the itemized budget, that includes how much money is going to

932
01:09:13,780 --> 01:09:19,540
NDD, how much money is going to park, how much money is going into new equipment, like the new trash,

933
01:09:19,660 --> 01:09:23,140
except the cools and those things that we've talked about a few months ago.

934
01:09:24,600 --> 01:09:24,860
No counseling.

935
01:09:25,620 --> 01:09:30,900
The consideration for the two percent, I know that was universal of all of the, the biz and

936
01:09:30,900 --> 01:09:41,860
But with the consumption of all of these different entities now coming together, would that raise the amount of their funding mandate?

937
01:09:43,560 --> 01:09:44,240
No.

938
01:09:45,660 --> 01:09:58,980
The funding will be still set by the statute that controls decisions and the convention bureau as well as the hotel application that goes into them.

939
01:09:58,980 --> 01:09:59,960
So it doesn't, it wouldn't.

940
01:10:00,210 --> 01:10:05,890
And raise it, it will increase the amount of money that will flow through the North Alliance, through

941
01:10:05,890 --> 01:10:11,070
the North Alliance, with respect to their oversight of those entities. And when the Parks Foundation

942
01:10:11,070 --> 01:10:16,330
comes on board, they will have control of that as well.

943
01:10:17,090 --> 01:10:20,790
Well, I'm a part of this may have limited budget. Don't talk about Newark Happenings.

944
01:10:21,510 --> 01:10:25,110
They're budgetary pieces will be consumed by North Alliance.

945
01:10:25,110 --> 01:10:27,990
That has happened already, yes.

946
01:10:31,710 --> 01:10:37,830
Based upon what the business administrator has had and is planning to do,

947
01:10:37,990 --> 01:10:40,950
I would just like to make a motion to reconsider this matter.

948
01:10:44,590 --> 01:10:44,850
Yes, sir.

949
01:10:46,750 --> 01:10:48,150
And there's a roll call.

950
01:10:48,350 --> 01:10:49,170
A little bit of second.

951
01:10:51,050 --> 01:10:52,190
A roll call for reconsideration.

952
01:10:53,410 --> 01:10:53,570
Bay.

953
01:10:54,290 --> 01:10:54,590
Yes.

954
01:10:55,030 --> 01:10:55,250
Council.

955
01:10:55,730 --> 01:10:56,130
Yes.

956
01:10:56,950 --> 01:10:57,270
Yes.

957
01:10:58,330 --> 01:10:58,850
Jackson.

958
01:11:01,730 --> 01:11:02,030
Kelly.

959
01:11:03,630 --> 01:11:04,150
Yes.

960
01:11:05,250 --> 01:11:05,770
Yes.

961
01:11:05,930 --> 01:11:06,250
Yes.

962
01:11:07,830 --> 01:11:09,130
We're thinking about that.

963
01:11:09,850 --> 01:11:16,310
I don't quite have a course, so if you could extract yesterday's motions that were made,

964
01:11:16,950 --> 01:11:21,890
or the presentation that was made, my council would invade and members of council to the

965
01:11:21,890 --> 01:11:27,190
Newark Alliance and we can send it to them a copy of what was said and what was the

966
01:11:27,190 --> 01:11:30,930
questions and those are the questions that were raised yesterday.

967
01:11:33,630 --> 01:11:36,450
This one quick question, I'm going to submit.

968
01:11:38,210 --> 01:11:44,090
You said the North City Parks Foundation, is that for all city parks?

969
01:11:44,290 --> 01:11:44,610
No.

970
01:11:45,510 --> 01:11:49,690
Eric Penn is a business administrator to counsel woman Jackson through the president.

971
01:11:49,810 --> 01:11:56,530
No, it's the five downtown parks, military park, the Harry Tubman park, riverfront park,

972
01:11:56,530 --> 01:12:02,210
Mogari commons and thank you parking park. Okay, no, they're going to be absorbed into

973
01:12:03,590 --> 01:12:11,190
Second life through the North Park Foundation. Okay. Yes. Thank you. Thank you.

974
01:12:12,230 --> 01:12:16,070
Do you counsel as a whole to adopt seven R2L?

975
01:12:18,920 --> 01:12:19,260
Yes.

976
01:12:19,820 --> 01:12:21,260
Council. Yes.

977
01:12:22,120 --> 01:12:24,440
Yes. Jackson? No.

978
01:12:25,840 --> 01:12:28,040
Kelly? Yes.

979
01:12:28,900 --> 01:12:29,560
Waymouth?

980

Yes.

981
01:12:31,360 --> 01:12:32,780
Got ground tree? Yes.

982
01:12:33,420 --> 01:12:34,640
Thank you, Donna. Yes.

983
01:12:36,040 --> 01:12:39,460
Council President Council members were back on page 47.

984
01:12:40,560 --> 01:12:43,200
Item C is a ceremonial street designation.

985
01:12:44,000 --> 01:12:44,560
Sponsor?

986
01:12:44,580 --> 01:12:45,260
Or is it?

987
01:12:45,260 --> 01:12:45,340
Or is it?

988
01:12:45,340 --> 01:12:45,400
Or is it?

989
01:12:45,400 --> 01:12:45,600
Or is it?

990
01:12:45,600 --> 01:12:45,620
Or is it?

991
01:12:45,800 --> 01:12:49,000
from second by Councilwoman Scott Roundtree.

992

Rowl?

993
01:12:49,880 --> 01:12:50,220
Rowl?

994
01:12:50,220 --> 01:12:50,700
Rowl?

995
01:12:51,740 --> 01:12:51,880
Rowl?

996
01:12:53,360 --> 01:12:55,880
Yeah, Jackson?

997
01:12:56,180 --> 01:12:56,500
Yes.

998
01:13:01,420 --> 01:13:01,560
Kelly?

999
01:13:01,980 --> 01:13:02,380
Yes.

1000
01:13:03,460 --> 01:13:04,040
Ramos?

1001
01:13:04,700 --> 01:13:05,280
Yes.

1002
01:13:06,700 --> 01:13:07,180
Rowl?

1003
01:13:07,620 --> 01:13:07,920
Yes.

1004
01:13:09,060 --> 01:13:09,880

authorizing the mayor and or his designated need to authorize the sale and transfer of

1383
01:28:34,430 --> 01:28:42,330
work property to Virginia Street for Delco LLC, I'm assuming the both items,

1384
01:28:44,730 --> 01:28:49,910
Corp Council are these to advance an adopt on first, I don't know. Okay, both items

1385
01:28:49,910 --> 01:28:54,350
there's a request from the administration to advance an adopt on first reading,

1386
01:28:56,620 --> 01:28:58,600
as G in

1387
01:29:03,840 --> 01:29:04,360
Yes.

1388
01:29:20,640 --> 01:29:20,820
Yes.

1389
01:29:23,980 --> 01:29:28,560
Again, items adopted today are first reading will be held at the next council meeting or soon

1390
01:29:28,560 --> 01:29:29,660
after a spectrum.

1391
01:29:31,060 --> 01:29:36,000
We are in the here in the citizens portions of this meeting where each speaker will have five minutes to speak.

1392
01:29:36,000 --> 01:29:43,430
We your name is called please approach the podium and address the council members. The first speaker is Lisa Mitchelson Parker

1393
01:29:44,420 --> 01:29:45,080
very

1394
01:29:52,920 --> 01:29:56,440
good day criminal cult this running out government

1395
01:29:57,960 --> 01:29:59,960
Ali Sepocca resident and

1396
01:30:00,000 --> 01:30:18,080
We are requesting a forensic audit of every department by the state controller in the A.G. and Washington, D.C. due to the incompetence, mouthpiece, and mismanagement of new works of budgets and revenue by the administration.

1397
01:30:18,960 --> 01:30:23,000
How are you presenting a budget without a breakdown by departments?

1398
01:30:23,000 --> 01:30:31,180
How would the legislate of body to allow department heads to not have answers to questions about our budget?

1399
01:30:33,710 --> 01:30:40,130
How is the and not public speakers to come in at a public hearing for our budget?

1400
01:30:41,370 --> 01:30:46,710
New Lookers, we are witnessing a shit show on the municipal budget.

1401
01:30:47,190 --> 01:30:50,210
How are you getting us out of debt?

1402
01:30:50,210 --> 01:31:00,170
Newark is in a compounded debt and deficit for over $700 million with no surplus zero.

1403
01:31:00,890 --> 01:31:12,990
How do you have a debt and a loan of 294 million principle would an interest rate at 75.35%

1404
01:31:12,990 --> 01:31:16,250
to the sum of 222 million?

1405
01:31:16,250 --> 01:31:23,150
The interest is just about as much as the loan, like I said before,

1406
01:31:23,850 --> 01:31:27,410
loan shocks don't have that kind of interest rate.

1407
01:31:29,170 --> 01:31:33,150
Where is the line item for the back pay to the pension fund,

1408
01:31:33,510 --> 01:31:38,110
where's the unions, where's the revenues from recycling,

1409
01:31:38,610 --> 01:31:43,350
parking authority, car rentals at the airport, parking lots

1410
01:31:43,350 --> 01:31:47,110
that has cast business, the list goes on and on

1411
01:31:47,110 --> 01:31:49,930
of unaccounted revenue streams.

1412
01:31:50,470 --> 01:31:54,730
You have outsource every department to a third party vendor

1413
01:31:54,730 --> 01:31:57,750
for permits, Ophra, Law Department,

1414
01:31:58,330 --> 01:32:01,370
for work to be done by city employees.

1415
01:32:02,450 --> 01:32:06,330
All of the quasi-government and grant-funded programs

1416
01:32:06,330 --> 01:32:10,690
that are not paying into the city like in Vesnoe,

1417
01:32:10,690 --> 01:32:13,390
where is the breakdown?

1418
01:32:17,340 --> 01:32:22,820
Like OVP, Ramos, you asked when this project was being funded,

1419
01:32:23,460 --> 01:32:30,300
how will they sustain themselves when the grant runs out? Now, we're absorbing them as

1420
01:32:30,300 --> 01:32:39,600
part of the city budget. How does that work? We should not be sustaining them at all.

1421
01:32:41,200 --> 01:32:48,760
Why do you continue to approve sale of properties to invest new authority to talk about that?

1422
01:32:49,120 --> 01:32:54,380
Lastly, there before the grace of God goes, I.

1423
01:32:54,580 --> 01:33:01,160
My dear sister, Gail Cheneyfield Jenkins, former councilwoman, is in a health crisis.

1424
01:33:01,280 --> 01:33:03,080
I ask for your prayers.

1425
01:33:03,080 --> 01:33:10,560
Larry Crompton and the rest of you political prostitutes that use a senior event to promote

1426
01:33:10,560 --> 01:33:19,460
your campaign on tax dollars. When has a former elected ever been denied access to any

1427
01:33:19,460 --> 01:33:28,640
event in this city? Never. You all acted with callous indifference, no reverence for

1428
01:33:28,640 --> 01:33:34,320
service to the city, no decency, no humanity.

1429
01:33:36,520 --> 01:33:43,620
Most of all, you direct disrespected a daughter of Newark, according to Shard James.

1430
01:33:44,540 --> 01:33:52,640
How dare all of you, include in the mayor, you will all read what you saw for your

1431
01:33:52,640 --> 01:34:02,940
goodness. And disregard towards a former elected prayers for my sister, Gail Cheneville Jenkins,

1432
01:34:03,520 --> 01:34:11,360
a true servant of the people. Now that street name and rules have been changed, give Gail,

1433
01:34:11,360 --> 01:34:25,180
just do for a street name, give Donna Jackson, a street name for her service of 40 years without paying.

1434
01:34:26,560 --> 01:34:33,480
New Yorkers come out on September 23rd at 6.30 to the first night council meeting,

1435
01:34:33,960 --> 01:34:40,200
because the one says proactive and advocating on our behalf, they need your support,

1436
01:34:40,200 --> 01:34:48,460
Like a Donna Jackson, like a Louis Quintana, and I'm getting ready to throw you in that bunch too, I mean a bed.

1437
01:34:51,390 --> 01:34:56,830
All the folks that last steal and cheap for their seats, get them out.

1438
01:35:00,690 --> 01:35:05,970
Felicia Austin, singleton, I leave Muhammad, I'm pairing.

1439
01:35:34,620 --> 01:35:35,380
Good afternoon.

1440
01:35:37,420 --> 01:35:43,280
As to the amolacum, I leave Muhammad court towers, I leave Muhammad the president, I leave Muhammad near school.

1441
01:35:44,160 --> 01:35:51,020
I was coming to a couple of months ago, I a pat had pushed something my security on Chancellor.

1442
01:35:51,460 --> 01:35:57,140
And I was, I was upset with him because he didn't push it, then we were in the house and authority.

1443
01:35:58,140 --> 01:36:06,780
But I'm not going to do that. I'm not going to do that. I have a lot of love for Pat, even though he's my children's age, I just thank them.

1444
01:36:08,680 --> 01:36:18,100
But I'm putting front of you is assessment that the housing authority I heard did.

1445
01:36:18,100 --> 01:36:26,860
And the assessment is says that you shouldn't have a council member on the housing,

1446
01:36:26,920 --> 01:36:33,280
New Accounts and Thoughts, because it's a conflict, and it is a conflict, that's what heard said,

1447
01:36:33,440 --> 01:36:39,040
said it right there, to say a house party should not be there, it's a conflict, and then I start

1448
01:36:39,040 --> 01:36:48,220
talking about. Now, in that conflict, we're pat, it pat don't hide its face. Housing

1449
01:36:48,220 --> 01:36:54,600
thought he would have been took in Google by the hood. If he don't, he might not

1450
01:36:54,600 --> 01:37:00,140
light-spice her, but he made a great move. And he made it at the right time because the

1451
01:37:00,140 --> 01:37:03,420
man was running for governor. Now, he'd been a crazy time to lose the house in the

1452
01:37:04,040 --> 01:37:11,000
Now, I'm going to let's go back and push security, security, not just for the chance

1453
01:37:11,000 --> 01:37:11,400
to happen.

1454
01:37:11,480 --> 01:37:14,220
Security for the housing authority, I've been asking for us.

1455
01:37:14,500 --> 01:37:19,000
Now, what I'm putting in front of you is different contracts that happen.

1456
01:37:19,380 --> 01:37:25,080
One contract, particularly, is that $7 million that we're going to spend on a house

1457
01:37:25,080 --> 01:37:26,000
starting to spend.

1458
01:37:26,000 --> 01:37:33,600
Councilman Donna, you remember that that you was arguing for me seven million or thirty five million. That was all BS

1459
01:37:34,100 --> 01:37:36,680
They never what they did they never put the money

1460
01:37:38,500 --> 01:37:41,940
In the in the contract they didn't feel it. They just didn't because of me

1461
01:37:41,940 --> 01:37:49,940
They want to keep me quiet so I didn't find out I'm just spikes are came and said they never put the money in for security

1462
01:37:50,740 --> 01:37:51,880
So it was BS

1463
01:37:51,880 --> 01:38:00,040
You know, seven million dollars there was BS then I got, I'm showing you something else where

1464
01:38:00,040 --> 01:38:04,860
there was supposed to be a contract, I think Pat bought that up in a thing about, four hundred

1465
01:38:04,860 --> 01:38:10,940
million dollars to the city of North for police security. That's against the law with HUD.

1466
01:38:11,220 --> 01:38:16,480
Shah James had to give back eight million dollars when he did it. We told the mayor that

1467
01:38:16,480 --> 01:38:21,020
you can't, HUD's position is that we're residents in the house of authority. You've got to

1468
01:38:21,020 --> 01:38:26,880
care of us like you take care about. When you got to pay you to have a police outside our houses,

1469
01:38:27,640 --> 01:38:33,120
so HUD said, no, so that was some more BS because I was down here talking about security.

1470
01:38:33,700 --> 01:38:39,320
Something's telling you, it's a lot of BS here, but now you can enforce it. I'm asking

1471
01:38:39,320 --> 01:38:45,660
this new council to enforce it. Just like you enforce everybody else, sin called it for us. You know how

1472
01:38:45,660 --> 01:38:50,340
I used to go to Bradley Court at night and walk.

1473
01:38:50,480 --> 01:38:51,720
I asked why if you dropped me off.

1474
01:38:51,800 --> 01:38:52,940
You said, no, don't get out of here.

1475
01:38:53,000 --> 01:38:54,060
I used to walk in.

1476
01:38:54,060 --> 01:38:55,020
With a security act.

1477
01:38:55,100 --> 01:38:56,960
I used to go to Pinnitus and court by myself.

1478
01:38:57,300 --> 01:38:58,480
With a security act.

1479
01:38:58,780 --> 01:39:00,360
Don't let nobody be as you.

1480
01:39:00,640 --> 01:39:04,080
Because the housing authority, remember, is low income.

1481
01:39:04,420 --> 01:39:05,340
Say your citizens.

1482
01:39:06,560 --> 01:39:07,120
And disable.

1483
01:39:07,840 --> 01:39:08,720
Protect them.

1484
01:39:08,720 --> 01:39:09,620
Enforce your album.

1485
01:39:10,140 --> 01:39:10,540
Pat.

1486
01:39:10,820 --> 01:39:12,540
Please start enforcing it.

1487
01:39:12,760 --> 01:39:15,480
You should see that you didn't get to both down there on Davis Street.

1488
01:39:16,200 --> 01:39:19,460
House of Thoughty, that should have slapped me your face.

1489
01:39:20,280 --> 01:39:20,840
Now, I'm Donald.

1490
01:39:22,080 --> 01:39:25,300
I heard the same thing that you had a grandson that couldn't,

1491
01:39:25,440 --> 01:39:26,640
he said, was 14 years old.

1492
01:39:27,580 --> 01:39:28,840
They sent it to let us say he couldn't.

1493
01:39:29,220 --> 01:39:30,500
They wasn't hiring people.

1494
01:39:31,400 --> 01:39:32,880
Now, you know, I'm a fact man.

1495
01:39:32,980 --> 01:39:34,900
FBI said, I leave.

1496
01:39:35,420 --> 01:39:36,240
We don't want to hear facts.

1497
01:39:36,360 --> 01:39:37,040
We want to hear everything.

1498
01:39:37,160 --> 01:39:38,320
I said, I'm a fact man.

1499
01:39:39,000 --> 01:39:40,360
But I heard rumors.

1500
01:39:40,360 --> 01:39:48,380
And what I'm asking you for, you can't sue Donna Jackson, that you asked for an audit

1501
01:39:49,920 --> 01:39:56,560
because I heard it was money. This is what I heard now, that money that was supposed to be for

1502
01:39:56,560 --> 01:39:59,880
the Employment Money was moved over to something else.

1503
01:40:00,000 --> 01:40:08,340
That's what I heard, but you need to ask for audit. Karen, gay law, it's an honorable woman. I dealt with

1504
01:40:08,340 --> 01:40:14,480
her when her husband with the basketball, we put kids in college. She's an honorable woman. Pat council

1505
01:40:14,480 --> 01:40:20,380
is not a corrupt individual. I want anybody to understand that. When I jumped on him, I was

1506
01:40:20,380 --> 01:40:27,900
not my corruption. What is this about? Lawyer to political lawyer to political lawyer to political

1507
01:40:27,900 --> 01:40:29,000
with the world and know that.

1508
01:40:29,320 --> 01:40:31,900
So jump on his damn house and authority

1509
01:40:31,900 --> 01:40:35,520
and make security to make people feel secure.

1510
01:40:36,360 --> 01:40:37,520
Well, I like my song.

1511
01:40:37,520 --> 01:40:38,560
Thank you.

1512
01:40:38,560 --> 01:40:39,160
Thanks, Speaker.

1513
01:40:39,540 --> 01:40:40,340
I'll leave my home.

1514
01:40:40,620 --> 01:40:41,100
I'm sorry.

1515
01:40:41,460 --> 01:40:42,760
I'll go again if you like.

1516
01:40:46,790 --> 01:40:47,270
I'm pairing.

1517
01:40:48,210 --> 01:40:48,750
She's up for her.

1518
01:40:49,550 --> 01:40:50,570
She got an opportunity.

1519
01:40:51,070 --> 01:40:51,370
Excuse me.

1520
01:40:52,810 --> 01:40:54,310
You almost got that off.

1521
01:40:54,310 --> 01:40:55,670
Right, you almost got that off.

1522
01:40:55,670 --> 01:40:56,890
That's a paid commercial.

1523
01:40:59,630 --> 01:41:01,530
I love it, I love it, I love it, I love it.

1524
01:41:01,790 --> 01:41:04,650
Great day, Newark, how you live in,

1525
01:41:04,930 --> 01:41:09,910
every solace, warrior for the people who want to fight for themselves.

1526
01:41:12,090 --> 01:41:13,590
Let's talk about this budget hearing.

1527
01:41:14,690 --> 01:41:16,030
This is insane.

1528
01:41:17,030 --> 01:41:19,770
You know, I know it was last month that beginning

1529
01:41:19,770 --> 01:41:22,850
and you threw together a little thing because you had to,

1530
01:41:23,130 --> 01:41:26,530
and encouraged us to have something to say prior to seeing the budget.

1531
01:41:26,530 --> 01:41:35,950
Now, we were supposed to get three minutes, so I'm reckoning that's three minutes after each

1532
01:41:35,950 --> 01:41:40,930
department gives their breakdown, because that's what makes sense, right?

1533
01:41:41,670 --> 01:41:56,510
And what you all do is you take something and instead of using it as a blueprint or a

1534
01:41:56,510 --> 01:42:04,590
saying, we need to go back to where we can have our say. Because this is our money. It's

1535
01:42:04,590 --> 01:42:08,490
not your money. It's where the people's money. It's the city's money. We pay your salaries.

1536
01:42:09,470 --> 01:42:16,550
And so we should have a say on this budget on every department that came before us yesterday.

1537
01:42:17,090 --> 01:42:21,590
Now, it's not, it should not be where okay. So the budget hearing was yesterday. There's a budget

1538
01:42:21,590 --> 01:42:26,890
today and when another day and then we'll just set a date when you can come another

1539
01:42:26,890 --> 01:42:31,390
week or two or a month later. That makes no sense because you're going to vote on

1540
01:42:31,390 --> 01:42:36,990
this budget and we the people have a say about it. Like for example, how is it that we've

1541
01:42:36,990 --> 01:42:44,110
had vacancies since 2021? There's a hiring freeze but it's in the budget. The money's

1542
01:42:44,110 --> 01:42:50,110
budgeting for the people to be hired but there's a hiring freeze but the money's there

1543
01:42:50,770 --> 01:42:54,270
And there's no plan to hire the people, so make that make sense.

1544
01:42:55,370 --> 01:42:57,550
So how is that and I'm asking, so how is that?

1545
01:42:57,790 --> 01:43:04,170
The money is there if I don't use it, the money is still there.

1546
01:43:04,970 --> 01:43:08,250
So it's in the budget that these people's salaries are there.

1547
01:43:09,450 --> 01:43:13,510
So is it just a placeholder because we're using the money for something else?

1548
01:43:14,330 --> 01:43:14,930
You understand?

1549
01:43:15,230 --> 01:43:19,330
Or is it because we don't want to pay any insurance if we hire the people,

1550
01:43:19,330 --> 01:43:23,290
So we'll just let the city run a muck and not have all

1551
01:43:23,290 --> 01:43:25,130
the proper people in place.

1552
01:43:26,370 --> 01:43:30,130
So the money is budgeted.

1553
01:43:30,290 --> 01:43:32,290
Why are we not hiring the people?

1554
01:43:32,510 --> 01:43:33,470
Since 2021.

1555
01:43:34,070 --> 01:43:37,270
And if it's a hiring freeze, when did the hiring freeze start?

1556
01:43:37,290 --> 01:43:39,610
Because I've seen people getting hired repeatedly

1557
01:43:42,870 --> 01:43:44,990
in the past months.

1558
01:43:45,490 --> 01:43:46,310
I've been an elevator.

1559
01:43:46,550 --> 01:43:47,170
I've been on the streets.

1560
01:43:47,330 --> 01:43:48,170
I've been hearing the conversation.

1561
01:43:48,170 --> 01:43:51,250
I see the people come to work their first day, a lot of people we've never seen in the

1562
01:43:51,250 --> 01:43:57,350
building before they got picked that. So people are being hired. When did the hiring freeze

1563
01:43:57,350 --> 01:44:03,950
go into effect and also answer another question for me, were there raises given out to department

1564
01:44:03,950 --> 01:44:11,810
managers and council people and the mayor's administration back in January or so and hit people's

1565
01:44:11,810 --> 01:44:18,330
check. So, in the midst of our deficit in all of this, where people give in reasons.

1566
01:44:20,230 --> 01:44:28,810
And so, and this is verifiable information. So, I'm asking the question. But we, you know,

1567
01:44:29,790 --> 01:44:34,310
given the answers to the questions that we've asked for. Also, with Ramos, when Office of

1568
01:44:34,310 --> 01:44:40,710
Violence Prevention was established. First of all, he asked, why did that get to be the organization

1569
01:44:40,710 --> 01:44:47,410
to disperse the money. He asked that. Then he asked how are they going to be funding after the

1570
01:44:47,410 --> 01:44:51,470
ARPA money or whatever money that was was given out. When all of that grant money was given,

1571
01:44:51,490 --> 01:44:56,010
how is this going to be funded? It was shuffled around, I would just vote yes and yeah,

1572
01:44:56,070 --> 01:44:59,970
we'll deal with it later. So now they have their leg in our budget.

1573
01:45:00,530 --> 01:45:11,370
For 3 million, and I believe they want it 6 million or something like that. So now there are leg on our budget, right? Police budget. So these were things that were asked.

1574
01:45:11,970 --> 01:45:18,250
They were shuffled down or just I just leave it alone, but now we're absorbing that amount and this question was asked yesterday.

1575
01:45:19,370 --> 01:45:29,930
So it's a lot of questions that we, the people want answers to because we're entitled to them. So it is only right that you give us the opportunity at these budget hearings.

1576
01:45:29,930 --> 01:45:37,630
to have our say, because I mean really, and it's only three minutes, so it should be three minutes per

1577
01:45:37,630 --> 01:45:45,090
department. This is one of schedule. You get paid a six-figure, almost six-figure salary, 95,000.

1578
01:45:45,110 --> 01:45:51,270
It's over a six-figure because you get the card, the gas, the perks, all of that. So yeah, you get a salary for this.

1579
01:45:51,610 --> 01:45:57,030
It's on the calendar, you are to be here to answer our questions to break down the budget,

1580
01:45:57,030 --> 01:46:00,470
to give us a clear picture of the city's business.

1581
01:46:01,710 --> 01:46:04,990
You don't get to shoe us off and kick the can down the road.

1582
01:46:05,750 --> 01:46:07,970
When we are, we the people are the revenue.

1583
01:46:09,930 --> 01:46:10,350
Thank you.

1584
01:46:10,530 --> 01:46:11,070
Nice speaker.

1585
01:46:11,930 --> 01:46:13,350
Hassan Hunter Redman.

1586
01:46:14,950 --> 01:46:15,130
I'm hearing.

1587
01:46:21,030 --> 01:46:21,650
My name is Hassan.

1588
01:46:21,850 --> 01:46:22,350
That's Redman.

1589
01:46:22,950 --> 01:46:25,070
I've been living in North for about a year now.

1590
01:46:26,070 --> 01:46:26,870
I have a couple of photos.

1591
01:46:26,930 --> 01:46:29,370
I don't know if I give a to you or you can't hear anything.

1592
01:46:29,850 --> 01:46:31,090
You can hear me now?

1593
01:46:31,330 --> 01:46:31,550
Yeah.

1594
01:46:31,550 --> 01:46:35,830
Okay, my name is Quasana Hunter Redman. I've been living in Noke for about a year now

1595
01:46:36,630 --> 01:46:38,390
And I just had a request

1596
01:46:39,390 --> 01:46:44,450
If we can put a camera on wheels on the corner of South 15th Street and Madison Street

1597
01:46:44,450 --> 01:46:48,410
I have a couple of photos of some of the things that I want to say to I give it to you guys or

1598
01:46:49,830 --> 01:46:50,550
The clerk

1599
01:46:55,540 --> 01:47:01,340
So the first thing I want to talk about is how there's a lot of activity going on at the end of the block

1600
01:47:01,340 --> 01:47:05,680
Um, there's Madison school around a corner when the kids are then with school.

1601
01:47:05,700 --> 01:47:10,260
They come up the block to fight adults watch and then when stops them, someone cover the

1602
01:47:10,260 --> 01:47:16,300
get hurt, um, due to limited parking, I have to park around a corner, my car has been broken

1603
01:47:16,300 --> 01:47:17,080
into twice.

1604
01:47:18,120 --> 01:47:18,940
It's not a good feeling.

1605
01:47:20,420 --> 01:47:23,760
Um, I'll couple of the neighbors talking about people breaking it and said their cars

1606
01:47:23,760 --> 01:47:24,500
as well.

1607
01:47:24,760 --> 01:47:28,840
They said that they've made police complaints, um, nothing has been done about it.

1608
01:47:28,840 --> 01:47:35,050
Um, someone hit my husband's car and his car was total so we had to put funds into buying a new car for him.

1609
01:47:36,800 --> 01:47:45,400
Um, the house behind me on south 14 16th Street. I believe it's abandoned. It's been burned down.

1610
01:47:46,300 --> 01:47:49,920
I spoke to Miss DeVina. She did something about it. People came out to clean the backyard.

1611
01:47:50,580 --> 01:47:53,460
But two weeks later, people came to dump more things in the backyard.

1612
01:47:54,160 --> 01:47:56,320
There's drug consumption being done back there.

1613
01:47:56,400 --> 01:48:01,720
I go to barbecue and it's people showing out in the backyard just all over the place.

1614
01:48:02,240 --> 01:48:05,120
If we can do something about that, that would be great.

1615
01:48:06,280 --> 01:48:09,340
The trash on South 15th Street is unbearable.

1616
01:48:10,060 --> 01:48:11,440
The drain is clogged.

1617
01:48:11,720 --> 01:48:14,280
It was a flood on the street because the water couldn't go through.

1618
01:48:16,660 --> 01:48:19,000
If we can do something about that, that would be great as well.

1619
01:48:19,660 --> 01:48:19,740
Please.

1620
01:48:20,020 --> 01:48:20,960
And thank you.

1621
01:48:20,960 --> 01:48:26,960
My priority is the safety of everyone around me and if we can take care of that that would be great

1622
01:48:26,960 --> 01:48:35,320
Which is why I brought up the camera on wheels because I feel like that would be a good thing to be monitored because once my husband car guy hit no one to anything

1623
01:48:35,920 --> 01:48:39,500
I actually see if they had video footage. They couldn't say anything

1624
01:48:40,060 --> 01:48:44,000
But I feel like this will be good for everybody on the block, please

1625
01:48:44,000 --> 01:48:44,980
My

1626
01:48:48,660 --> 01:48:56,720
card, you extract one of the speaker and send it to the appropriate department, moving forward, that's what it needs to be done.

1627
01:48:57,400 --> 01:48:57,680
Yes sir.

1628
01:48:57,680 --> 01:49:04,740
It's forward, the speakers come up and tell us so to the different departments. Thank you.

1629
01:49:06,340 --> 01:49:07,680
Next speaker is Marilyn Solwell.

1630
01:49:29,310 --> 01:49:29,710
Say it again.

1631
01:49:30,890 --> 01:49:32,010
Marilyn Solwell.

1632
01:49:36,110 --> 01:49:36,830

Yes, good afternoon. My name is OPPO. All right. I reside at Vanderpool Street in Newark, New Jersey.

1634
01:50:14,770 --> 01:50:18,980
My concerns with the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act.

1635
01:50:18,980 --> 01:50:20,060
And

1636
01:50:24,860 --> 01:50:36,480
title 13, we have paid it back, and the program TARP, which is trouble asset relief program.

1637
01:50:37,080 --> 01:50:48,580
Reduced, there is an appropriation to assist homeowners, and I believe the program is officially,

1638
01:50:48,580 --> 01:51:00,540
It is either closed of September 30, 2023 and a dispersed money and actually collected some money.

1639
01:51:01,260 --> 01:51:18,420
The presidential waiver, the authority on the withdrawal or recapture of the AR Act.

1640
01:51:20,020 --> 01:51:26,240
unobligated funds dedicated for deficit reduction.

1641
01:51:26,640 --> 01:51:35,600
There's federal housing, finance, agencies on the plan of the agency to continue to support.

1642
01:51:35,600 --> 01:51:49,300
and maintain the nation's vital housing industry.

1643
01:51:50,020 --> 01:51:55,340
Guarantine, the American taxpayer will not suffer unnecessary losses.

1644
01:51:58,190 --> 01:52:03,190
In Title 11, there is federal reserve system provisions,

1645
01:52:08,090 --> 01:52:23,690

Thank you so much.

1671
01:55:07,980 --> 01:55:14,880
That's not just say something really quick to miss open. Miss open one who has stood on the other side of that mic.

1672
01:55:15,340 --> 01:55:22,700
Where you are for a long time. Let me just let you know that I appreciate and I fully understand everything that you're talking about.

1673
01:55:22,700 --> 01:55:39,720
I remember when they initially sent that American recovery money out and the billions of dollars that we received and downtown North in the O710 I remember the Southboard O7112 didn't receive any American recovery money and I know we talked some years back

1674
01:55:39,720 --> 01:55:52,080
But it is very important for us to understand what you're talking about with the recovery with the money that was left from home owners and I know oftentimes those in the audience, that's really what I mean in the

1675
01:55:52,080 --> 01:55:56,280
we were watching. Don't understand. We're like, Mr. Opa, please have you

1676
01:55:56,280 --> 01:55:59,880
up and get over. Let me tell you something. There's some wealth of knowledge

1677
01:55:59,880 --> 01:56:05,220
that if we are to move strategically through all of this stuff, we need to

1678
01:56:05,220 --> 01:56:09,320
understand the monitors we have in place. The money that was left to help us. I

1679
01:56:09,320 --> 01:56:14,760
remember they put millions of dollars out across this country to say people's

1680
01:56:14,760 --> 01:56:19,240
mortgages and a lot of people got help and a lot of people did not because of

1681
01:56:19,240 --> 01:56:24,860
unfair way it was distributed but I want to thank you for continuing to come talking about

1682
01:56:24,860 --> 01:56:29,840
the federal trade commission and all those other entities that oversee was going on here

1683
01:56:29,840 --> 01:56:35,560
that we need to understand how that works what was going on and I appreciate it every time

1684
01:56:35,560 --> 01:56:41,200
you stand up there. I think we need to just be more alert. Just go Google American recovery

1685
01:56:41,200 --> 01:56:45,840
at and then when Miss Opo comes up for those of you who don't understand you'll be going to

1686
01:56:45,840 --> 01:56:52,680
stand the mastery of her doing this and I want to commend you for your commitment of continuing

1687
01:56:52,680 --> 01:56:57,840
to come all the time and giving that knowledge. And those who don't understand, again, it's

1688
01:56:57,840 --> 01:57:03,040
with love. Go Google American Recovery Act, see the money, the billions that she's talking

1689
01:57:03,040 --> 01:57:08,400
about that sort of taking care of things that need to take care of things now that is attached

1690
01:57:08,400 --> 01:57:13,200
to FEMA. With all these storms we're going on. We need to understand what's supposed to come

1691
01:57:13,200 --> 01:57:18,060
down from the federal government to assist us in these times the crisis when people

1692
01:57:18,060 --> 01:57:22,620
shingles and chimneys collapse and in all of that when your home onage runs

1693
01:57:22,620 --> 01:57:26,900
got you in the tight bind, FEMA should be stepping in to help us join these storms.

1694
01:57:27,140 --> 01:57:30,180
So Ms. Oprah, thank you, my hats off to you. I know my council colleagues

1695
01:57:30,180 --> 01:57:34,620
appreciated as well but I just got to say because I know exactly what you're talking about

1696
01:57:34,620 --> 01:57:39,020
because I bought the map stand to the council at that time to show them how much

1697
01:57:39,020 --> 01:57:44,540
Billions was sent in the air under the book administration from the federal government for the American

1698
01:57:44,540 --> 01:57:45,540
recovery act.

1699
01:57:45,680 --> 01:57:49,300
This city got a lot of money and I thank you for keeping it in the forefront.

1700
01:57:49,780 --> 01:57:50,040
Thank you.

1701
01:57:50,040 --> 01:57:50,580
Thank you.

1702
01:57:50,920 --> 01:57:57,500
I also wanted to say that the Eastward understand they have a private entity there that

1703
01:57:57,500 --> 01:58:01,180
is, that has to pay tax to our government.

1704
01:58:01,480 --> 01:58:07,640
We should be able to North to collect that net net because net net net net net net net.

1705
01:58:07,640 --> 01:58:14,860
I wanted to rub you, but I would have to do this for every speaker and all fairness to the public.

1706
01:58:15,440 --> 01:58:20,820
Sorry, I appreciate, but now we are moving forward.

1707
01:58:24,600 --> 01:58:25,800
It's very,

1708
01:58:38,470 --> 01:58:39,090
very, very.

1709
01:58:40,030 --> 01:58:42,970
Okay, so let's have a recovery right now.

1710
01:58:43,430 --> 01:58:50,510
The city's persistent in action has created dangerous biological environmental and physical conditions

1711
01:58:50,510 --> 01:58:54,290
that threatened the health safety and property of Newark residents.

1712
01:58:55,010 --> 01:58:57,930
These hazardous conditions did not arise overnight.

1713
01:58:58,310 --> 01:59:02,430
They are a direct result of years of an adequate code enforcement

1714
01:59:02,430 --> 01:59:04,890
failure to regulate illegal construction,

1715
01:59:05,490 --> 01:59:09,210
part that parking practices and the city's refusal to address

1716
01:59:09,210 --> 01:59:12,270
repeated complaints for neighborhood residents.

1717
01:59:13,590 --> 01:59:17,330
The city's failure to regulate or prohibit excessive

1718
01:59:17,330 --> 01:59:25,110
of paving of residential front and side yards resulting in large expanses of impervious surfaces

1719
01:59:25,110 --> 01:59:32,150
throughout the neighborhoods has created flooding conditions. So this is your creation.

1720
01:59:32,910 --> 01:59:40,930
Excessive heat generated by concrete and asphalt surfaces in these illegally converted backyard

1721
01:59:40,930 --> 01:59:54,470
sideyards has created an urban heat island and increases stormwater runoff and flooding conditions

1722
01:59:54,470 --> 01:59:57,750
in areas that historically did not flood.

1723
01:59:59,070 --> 01:59:59,950
Standing water from...

1724
02:00:00,000 --> 02:00:08,060
Olds mosquito breeding, mull growth, bacteria, and other biological hazards. And this is dangerous

1725
02:00:08,060 --> 02:00:15,480
to pregnant women and small children. But nothing is being done about this. Damage to neighborhood

1726
02:00:15,480 --> 02:00:23,540
foundation, sidewalks, and landscaping caused by uncontrolled stormwater runoff. So I want

1727
02:00:23,540 --> 02:00:31,380
to the conduct in comprehensive inspection of North 4th Street corridor and force all applicable

1728
02:00:31,380 --> 02:00:38,080
parking laws, including driveway obstruction and intersection visibility requirements.

1729
02:00:38,800 --> 02:00:44,100
Remove illegally parked cars, tick it and tell them that of driveways and create traffic

1730
02:00:44,100 --> 02:00:52,500
hazards. Review all paved residential properties. Get code enforcement involved for

1731
02:00:52,500 --> 02:00:58,440
zoning compliance, impervious, coverage limits, and require permits,

1732
02:01:00,940 --> 02:01:02,240
develop a written neighborhood

1733
02:01:02,240 --> 02:01:08,900
remediation plan and measurable and timelines for correcting these public safety hazards.

1734
02:01:14,230 --> 02:01:20,110
This is in order to promote the public health safety morals and general welfare, secure safety

1735
02:01:20,110 --> 02:01:32,590
from fire, flood, panic, and other natural and man-made by the city of Newark hazards and promote adequate drainage and stormwater management.

1736
02:01:33,270 --> 02:01:47,510
So I don't have law from 12 years ago that, no, almost 20 years ago, to address these are current real-time biohazards.

1737
02:01:47,510 --> 02:01:51,790
that I've come here repeatedly and spoken to you about.

1738
02:01:52,910 --> 02:01:55,970
And this damages people's properties

1739
02:01:57,470 --> 02:01:59,650
and has to be addressed and debated.

1740
02:02:00,630 --> 02:02:02,110
And it's ward-wide.

1741
02:02:02,310 --> 02:02:04,450
I'm coming and talking to you about the north,

1742
02:02:05,030 --> 02:02:08,590
but this is also impacting the south and the central and the east.

1743
02:02:09,270 --> 02:02:14,270
Now, I also heard you say yes, yes, yes, yes, yes.

1744
02:02:14,270 --> 02:02:19,590
to reducing the facade improvement from 50,000 to 30,000.

1745
02:02:19,690 --> 02:02:21,330
What are you going to do with 30,000 dollars?

1746
02:02:21,750 --> 02:02:26,870
I see that you're constantly eroding and taking away from the people,

1747
02:02:27,710 --> 02:02:33,970
and having parties and waste of money for yourselves.

1748
02:02:35,350 --> 02:02:39,530
And for the little attorney with the little hands and feet,

1749
02:02:39,530 --> 02:02:49,650
He said that if somebody does illegal construction, what we're going to do is open the walls and if it's okay, then they're okay, no.

1750
02:02:49,890 --> 02:02:57,430
The law states that the properties had to be brought back to their original form and you had to go through the process.

1751
02:02:57,590 --> 02:03:02,970
That's why we have permits and a zoning board and all of these other different things.

1752
02:03:02,970 --> 02:03:12,030
There are our variances that are given, that should not be given, and then other zoning violations completely ignored.

1753
02:03:13,430 --> 02:03:21,990
So while we can stand up here and I can read a page from the Bible that was written 25,000 years ago, if you'd like.

1754
02:03:21,990 --> 02:03:31,810
Well, I want to address what's currently going on, what's happening right now, and I've written the laws in here, so you don't have to go hunt them up.

1755
02:03:32,170 --> 02:03:35,330
You just have to read this and share it with the proper departments.

1756
02:03:39,060 --> 02:03:40,040
Thanks, Beaker.

1757
02:03:42,280 --> 02:03:43,020
Sheila Montecu.

1758
02:03:44,500 --> 02:03:45,060
I'm not appearing.

1759
02:03:46,460 --> 02:03:47,400
Cheryl Bulgar.

1760
02:03:48,240 --> 02:03:49,660
I'm feeling good

1761
02:03:52,600 --> 02:03:53,220
afternoon.

1762
02:03:53,480 --> 02:03:54,480
My name is Cheryl Bulgar.

1763
02:03:54,480 --> 02:04:01,640
than a westward, 94 west in Davenu in North. Right now for the last couple of years since they did

1764
02:04:01,640 --> 02:04:06,840
the pipeings for the water and we could get water from whatever sources they told us to come

1765
02:04:06,840 --> 02:04:13,080
to get water. Right now when I turn on my kitchen water, my cold water smells nothing but like bleach.

1766
02:04:14,320 --> 02:04:20,420
I would like someone to come out test our water. Now we live also in that I have my

1767
02:04:23,420 --> 02:04:26,280
She said, she's the head of the Block Association.

1768
02:04:27,120 --> 02:04:31,960
We have a little park there, it's a little green acre park between Callwell Place, West End Avenue,

1769
02:04:32,260 --> 02:04:34,520
Laurel Place, and Carolina Avenue.

1770
02:04:35,220 --> 02:04:38,160
In the evenings we need to change to lock it up.

1771
02:04:38,400 --> 02:04:42,160
At night there's fights in there, at night there's drunken in there, at night there.

1772
02:04:42,520 --> 02:04:44,740
People in there are on glass bottles and all.

1773
02:04:45,160 --> 02:04:49,780
When they put the benches in, it caused a lot of problems, because prior to living there,

1774
02:04:49,780 --> 02:04:55,540
The drug dealers used to have that part. They finally cleared that park out and everything was going fine

1775
02:04:55,540 --> 02:04:59,020
Now they put the benches in there the people come in they walk their dogs

1776
02:05:00,000 --> 02:05:06,200
I do want the poops school. People come in and bring their kids. Their kids are in the same grass, the dogs are

1777
02:05:06,200 --> 02:05:12,260
going their thing. So at night, we need to lock that park after a certain time. Again, our

1778
02:05:12,260 --> 02:05:19,880
school is also a backed up debris from everywhere. We also, the street cleaner is real interesting,

1779
02:05:20,260 --> 02:05:24,660
because the truck comes down the street. The brushes are up in the air, and they might come down

1780
02:05:24,660 --> 02:05:26,860
some street at some time.

1781
02:05:27,180 --> 02:05:29,860
Cars are being ticketed for not being moved,

1782
02:05:30,440 --> 02:05:31,620
but street clean is not coming.

1783
02:05:34,010 --> 02:05:37,370
We have another problem with 76 Vermont Avenue

1784
02:05:37,370 --> 02:05:40,930
on the corner of Plymouth Street, an abandoned house.

1785
02:05:41,730 --> 02:05:43,850
With squatters in it, and it tickles me

1786
02:05:43,850 --> 02:05:47,790
because I don't know if the plywood they use to border the doors,

1787
02:05:48,230 --> 02:05:50,610
that they can actually take the plywood and pull it off.

1788
02:05:51,090 --> 02:05:53,250
But anybody knows the way that building is built.

1789
02:05:53,250 --> 02:06:03,590
If you go in the back yard, the old basements, you should open up from outside, so if they border up the front, nobody looks in the back and it becomes a dumping site.

1790
02:06:03,990 --> 02:06:08,210
I've sent pictures down because this is a normal dumping site all of a sudden.

1791
02:06:08,730 --> 02:06:14,250
All cars are there, and any garbage you want there from furniture or all dumps right there.

1792
02:06:14,450 --> 02:06:17,110
79, 76 Vermont corner appointment.

1793
02:06:17,610 --> 02:06:18,770
Let's see into my story.

1794
02:06:21,020 --> 02:06:21,940
What a good one.

1795
02:06:22,860 --> 02:06:23,660
James Williams.

1796
02:06:40,220 --> 02:06:51,660
I'm James Williams I'm James Williams I'm James Williams the owner of a limited dollar store the owner of R&B building

1797
02:06:51,660 --> 02:06:58,600
Um, it was some forced accusations set up in here on your last meeting by R.T.B. Booding.

1798
02:06:59,280 --> 02:07:06,500
And um, I wanted to just address that today about those, um, remarks that was said.

1799
02:07:07,100 --> 02:07:13,760
And um, when I heard about it, I came to City Hall, talk to some people.

1800
02:07:14,340 --> 02:07:22,680
I worked for her, somebody else that worked for you guys, and I went to Miss Murphy at a

1801
02:07:22,680 --> 02:07:30,080
cold enforcement and she stayed at, I don't have to bring nothing because all the emails

1802
02:07:30,080 --> 02:07:36,440
she sent out to you guys are already about the situation. She said, I said emails are already

1803
02:07:36,440 --> 02:07:39,980
to you guys, confirm everything.

1804
02:07:41,100 --> 02:07:48,520
So I'm just here to clear up my name from what we said about me and what I stand for.

1805
02:07:49,400 --> 02:07:50,520
That's what I'm here.

1806
02:07:57,130 --> 02:07:58,330
Have you guys aware of it already?

1807
02:07:59,110 --> 02:08:05,030
Have you seen emails from the smokey after this state?

1808
02:08:05,590 --> 02:08:06,670
After these statements?

1809
02:08:07,790 --> 02:08:09,330
She said she sent you guys emails.

1810
02:08:09,550 --> 02:08:11,550
She said, well, I want to see her.

1811
02:08:11,550 --> 02:08:13,010
She said nothing you'd have to do.

1812
02:08:13,370 --> 02:08:17,130
She said, I've dressed it, but I sent all of them.

1813
02:08:17,190 --> 02:08:18,890
Email's are out already to them.

1814
02:08:18,930 --> 02:08:20,490
I said, OK, thank you.

1815
02:08:21,070 --> 02:08:22,570
And I was it.

1816
02:08:23,170 --> 02:08:23,770
Thank you.

1817
02:08:27,340 --> 02:08:27,880
Next speaker.

1818
02:08:30,660 --> 02:08:31,620
Danella Lee.

1819
02:08:32,740 --> 02:08:33,220
Very

1820
02:08:41,980 --> 02:08:42,460
good.

1821
02:08:42,460 --> 02:08:44,300
If I have to know everybody, we want to thank

1822
02:08:44,300 --> 02:08:45,540
the Lord for waking us up.

1823
02:08:45,540 --> 02:08:47,260
This morning, bless and our family.

1824
02:08:48,100 --> 02:08:51,000
The friends, the homeless, our families, and our families.

1825
02:08:51,260 --> 02:08:52,020
I'll salam a lake.

1826
02:09:31,150 --> 02:09:40,690
So what's happening is the last time I came and I gave y'all all that, that was the 15th,

1827
02:09:40,690 --> 02:09:48,370
the 17th, all the people that I had to help the department came out was four, they all put

1828
02:09:48,370 --> 02:09:51,150
and said we were legally parked.

1829
02:09:51,850 --> 02:09:53,210
They told mine's Friday.

1830
02:09:54,310 --> 02:09:55,050
So I took the pictures.

1831
02:09:55,290 --> 02:09:55,710
I came down.

1832
02:09:55,890 --> 02:09:57,210
I wanted the VA to deal with it.

1833
02:09:57,350 --> 02:09:59,870
But I got a call and said, hold up, D.D.

1834
02:10:00,110 --> 02:10:19,670
What they're going to do, they're just getting you and it was another young lady. I had premier tone when I told you I'd be fuller. premier tone is out of business, but it's on our building. So, I had another tone accompanied that pulled my thing instead of having because three years ago was already on rounds. They had them to bring it back.

1835
02:10:19,670 --> 02:10:26,750
What I've noticed in our back, we got about maybe 12-wheel coos, big trucks, some got

1836
02:10:26,750 --> 02:10:34,750
municipal parking, some got commercial plates, a thousand, two big identicals that got the

1837
02:10:34,750 --> 02:10:38,550
one got municipal don't have no, nothing, it's not registered.

1838
02:10:39,610 --> 02:10:45,410
In the back of the other one got municipal jersey place and took pictures because if anybody

1839
02:10:45,410 --> 02:10:47,030
He's the legal and not the park.

1840
02:10:47,350 --> 02:10:49,470
They always trust it and I've been here for 10 years.

1841
02:10:50,150 --> 02:10:53,930
So yesterday, so the people who called us,

1842
02:10:54,410 --> 02:10:57,330
the manager told one, you could take it out at a lot,

1843
02:10:57,450 --> 02:10:58,690
put it in the hand to cat.

1844
02:10:59,390 --> 02:11:01,830
The problem was she delivered to one hand to cat.

1845
02:11:02,090 --> 02:11:03,430
That zone is alone.

1846
02:11:04,550 --> 02:11:07,030
You got three calls being parked in the hand to cat

1847
02:11:07,030 --> 02:11:07,890
been here for weeks.

1848
02:11:08,090 --> 02:11:09,310
Make them all stormy short.

1849
02:11:09,990 --> 02:11:12,010
I've been trying to get in touch with Ms. Angelica

1850
02:11:12,010 --> 02:11:13,250
about us.

1851
02:11:13,250 --> 02:11:18,630
Mr. Thomas came, I got to look at my picture, had to be about a month and a half, I asked for

1852
02:11:18,630 --> 02:11:23,410
the number, her number, I believe the message is for this strange, that's the first

1853
02:11:23,410 --> 02:11:27,750
voice that I don't even message, so they had a big knee in yesterday or two.

1854
02:11:28,290 --> 02:11:33,950
I stayed outside from three, 15, waiting on her. She lived, stayed in it at five,

1855
02:11:34,250 --> 02:11:38,070
but I heard them all laughing, just spirit told me to go on to the side.

1856
02:11:38,790 --> 02:11:44,290
The manager got in, she got it, the young lady, I called her, I'd be called, because I don't

1857
02:11:44,290 --> 02:11:48,070
want nobody's saying I'm a pro, she must say hi. I'm the only one that she looks

1858
02:11:48,070 --> 02:11:52,670
on the phone, she's trying to sneak out. I said, is this your member? She said, yes, I

1859
02:11:52,670 --> 02:11:56,190
said I call her in room this the time. I said, you didn't know why I don't use that. And I

1860
02:11:56,190 --> 02:12:00,810
said, Mr. Thomas, then tell you, I've been reaching out. What is the reference to? I said,

1861
02:12:00,950 --> 02:12:08,050
my car being so demo and I'm being threatened. I'm feeling uncomfortable from the

1862
02:12:08,050 --> 02:12:13,410
situation with the security but Mr. Pat council chief at that point with that in the BA.

1863
02:12:14,070 --> 02:12:19,230
The moral to the story, she was already had an attitude and I said, you don't see me talking

1864
02:12:19,230 --> 02:12:20,330
about it?

1865
02:12:20,430 --> 02:12:26,330
She said, I don't watch that stuff as I'm walking with her because she said, look, I need

1866
02:12:26,330 --> 02:12:31,830
you to call the manager and I talked to her and I said, that's what I got the problem with.

1867
02:12:31,830 --> 02:12:35,950
Prior to that, a Jason, he's down in shock.

1868
02:12:36,450 --> 02:12:38,090
I was supposed to meet with her in the morning,

1869
02:12:38,090 --> 02:12:40,490
but the young lady that got pushed with me

1870
02:12:40,490 --> 02:12:42,430
told me when her underground apartment down here.

1871
02:12:42,730 --> 02:12:44,630
He was one sided with them.

1872
02:12:44,890 --> 02:12:47,150
I found out that Lee Douglas was in charge.

1873
02:12:47,450 --> 02:12:50,430
So I was going to talk with Mr. Hassani about that,

1874
02:12:50,450 --> 02:12:51,490
about setting me up.

1875
02:12:51,850 --> 02:12:54,410
But it's a ledge that the reason why has been

1876
02:12:54,410 --> 02:12:56,590
me being in salt for a year, her daughter

1877
02:12:56,590 --> 02:13:00,070
supposed to be a dispatcher, one of the young ladies.

1878
02:13:00,070 --> 02:13:05,750
So people have been pushed. They got people pushed. Pitches up. People are being banned.

1879
02:13:05,890 --> 02:13:09,950
Can't take us to being banned. The young lady was pushed for me. She was so grandfather

1880
02:13:09,950 --> 02:13:15,390
can't take her. He's been putting them on medicine. But I didn't bring y'all to

1881
02:13:15,390 --> 02:13:20,190
pitchers because I'm gonna deal with them. But how do you move minds? And you leave a band

1882
02:13:20,190 --> 02:13:25,530
that caused them? I wouldn't told about when I said you can't do that. The maintenance guy

1883
02:13:25,530 --> 02:13:30,410
came back. He took their stick as all. The maintenance guy they're doing.

1884
02:13:30,750 --> 02:13:35,530
More remove lockouts instead of cleaning that build this old.

1885
02:13:36,430 --> 02:13:40,210
The moroni marini. I did that when they said they give you the word.

1886
02:13:40,230 --> 02:13:43,530
So I trusted them. They the problem. I don't got time.

1887
02:13:44,130 --> 02:13:46,830
But all of these are notices. She's been tampered with the mail.

1888
02:13:46,970 --> 02:13:47,790
I got a picture.

1889
02:13:48,590 --> 02:13:50,630
I get I work for the post office. Thank you so much.

1890
02:13:51,750 --> 02:13:53,110
Jacqueline Lime House.

1891
02:14:27,170 --> 02:14:32,970
I went to the restaurant the other day and the waitress brought me a lobster with one claw.

1892
02:14:34,170 --> 02:14:38,870
I said, what happened? She said he was in a fight. I said, bring me the winner.

1893
02:14:41,360 --> 02:14:54,260
For the past 18 years my sister's lighthouse non-profit organization based in North New Jersey has been committed to providing critical services to individuals and families affected by domestic vows.

1894
02:14:54,640 --> 02:14:59,740
A mission office, a comprehensive range of supportive services including safe housing.

1895
02:15:00,000 --> 02:15:10,220
Referrals, case management, support services, mental health services, and program design to empower and exist, assist victims and rebuilding their lives.

1896
02:15:11,060 --> 02:15:19,340
We seek to enhance our impact. We cannot treat domestic violence as a private matter. It is public safety,

1897
02:15:19,340 --> 02:15:23,220
emergency that demands our city's strongest response.

1898
02:15:23,860 --> 02:15:28,320
Survivors of domestic violence live in every community and come from every walk of life.

1899
02:15:28,500 --> 02:15:30,040
These stories are not isolated.

1900
02:15:30,860 --> 02:15:35,960
Last year, just one day alone close to 80,000 victims of domestic violence

1901
02:15:35,960 --> 02:15:38,580
reach out to the self-help line.

1902
02:15:39,100 --> 02:15:42,300
To flee fire and step was affecting their lives.

1903
02:15:43,340 --> 02:15:46,300
For them, domestic violence takes a daily toll.

1904
02:15:46,300 --> 02:15:48,220
takes over their lives, test families,

1905
02:15:48,460 --> 02:15:51,440
the parts, and least lasting scars on them forever.

1906
02:15:52,360 --> 02:15:54,140
Just because you don't hear me scream,

1907
02:15:54,180 --> 02:15:56,140
don't mean it's not going on.

1908
02:15:56,860 --> 02:16:00,680
For a lot of us, just, okay,

1909
02:16:01,040 --> 02:16:04,720
a lot of us grew up in a time where there was no help.

1910
02:16:04,860 --> 02:16:06,700
We came from a history of trauma.

1911
02:16:07,580 --> 02:16:10,080
For centuries of views, people were told to get over it,

1912
02:16:10,120 --> 02:16:12,840
forget it, and now you have pressure cookers.

1913
02:16:12,880 --> 02:16:15,220
Many people walking around about to explode

1914
02:16:15,220 --> 02:16:19,180
with mental illness because they've been told to keep it to themselves.

1915
02:16:21,230 --> 02:16:23,190
Domestic violence is not rare, private.

1916
02:16:23,910 --> 02:16:28,070
Or harmless, it is a nationwide crisis that touches every family.

1917
02:16:28,430 --> 02:16:33,830
Far from being a family matter, it ripples every effect.

1918
02:16:34,710 --> 02:16:40,130
Our felt in schools, workplaces, and healthcare systems, all across the generations.

1919
02:16:40,850 --> 02:16:44,770
It is not a lover's quarrel, but a pattern of coercive,

1920
02:16:44,770 --> 02:16:50,150
controlling behavior that killed thousands of people in the U.S. every year.

1921
02:16:51,070 --> 02:16:56,770
17 million people were harmed by physical violence, sexual violence, and stalking

1922
02:16:57,670 --> 02:16:58,590
last year.

1923
02:16:59,090 --> 02:17:01,890
That's the national consensus.

1924
02:17:02,370 --> 02:17:06,330
On an average every day, more than three women are killed by a current

1925
02:17:06,330 --> 02:17:10,950
former husband, boyfriend, or some significant other.

1926
02:17:10,950 --> 02:17:18,690
other. Making it clear that domestic violence is not only pervasive, but deadly. The crisis that strikes

1927
02:17:18,690 --> 02:17:25,590
at the core of our communities behind every victim, story, escalating a coercion, fear, five.

1928
02:17:26,690 --> 02:17:32,090
We're not paying enough attention to all these women being killed by men. Yes, women are

1929
02:17:32,090 --> 02:17:38,990
killers too, but men kill women because they can. Men who choose to be violent do so in a society

1930
02:17:38,990 --> 02:17:45,550
that has taught them repeatedly to them that women can be possessed, controlled, punished, and discarded.

1931
02:17:46,550 --> 02:17:49,510
And they do so because women's fear is normalized.

1932
02:17:50,890 --> 02:17:55,690
Because threats are diminished and considered as relationship problems.

1933
02:17:55,990 --> 02:18:01,470
This is the one I think about the most is how women are expected to need safely,

1934
02:18:01,950 --> 02:18:05,530
while these men are really expected to stop ever being violent.

1935
02:18:05,530 --> 02:18:12,350
It is sad because institutions repeatedly wait for proof that arrives in the form of a body.

1936
02:18:13,110 --> 02:18:17,130
And a lot of us know what that looks like, has seen it and what it means.

1937
02:18:17,570 --> 02:18:22,870
And when we say men kill women because they can, it isn't because of ideology.

1938
02:18:23,810 --> 02:18:29,610
It isn't because of testosterone or physical size or they are worried that way.

1939
02:18:29,830 --> 02:18:33,970
It means power, it means that opportunity and it means impurity.

1940
02:18:33,970 --> 02:18:41,710
It also means that friends will make excuses, families will look the other way and police sometimes underestimate the danger.

1941
02:18:42,450 --> 02:18:45,270
The court gives men chance after chance.

1942
02:18:46,150 --> 02:18:50,750
The media will describe murder as a relationship that turns tragic.

1943
02:18:51,550 --> 02:18:59,110
Male violence against women does not continue because we have no answer and continues because we keep refusing to confront the root cause.

1944
02:18:59,110 --> 02:19:03,710
It tells us about the power and society that both is protected.

1945
02:19:04,450 --> 02:19:09,470
Women don't need less, no more lectures about how to stay safe, safe, men need to lose

1946
02:19:09,470 --> 02:19:15,230
the social permission to make women feel unsafe, and until violence brings consequences

1947
02:19:15,230 --> 02:19:20,450
before it brings up funeral, men will continue to kill women for the most devastating

1948
02:19:20,450 --> 02:19:21,910
and simplest reasons.

1949
02:19:23,490 --> 02:19:29,870
We call on all institutions and elected officials to confront the resting bounds for what

1950
02:19:29,870 --> 02:19:32,230
a truly is a national crisis.

1951
02:19:32,690 --> 02:19:36,770
Never trivial, never private, never to be ignored.

1952
02:19:37,310 --> 02:19:38,050
I'm a chili.

1953
02:19:38,490 --> 02:19:38,570
I'm a chili.

1954
02:19:38,570 --> 02:19:39,570
I'm sorry, they're interrupulous.

1955
02:19:41,450 --> 02:19:42,490
I'm sorry.

1956
02:19:44,190 --> 02:19:44,370
I'm sorry.

1957
02:19:45,030 --> 02:19:45,450
I'm sorry.

1958
02:19:45,530 --> 02:19:45,610
I'm sorry.

1959
02:19:46,350 --> 02:19:46,750
I'm sorry.

1960
02:19:48,470 --> 02:19:48,850
I'm sorry.

1961
02:19:50,510 --> 02:19:51,230
I'm sorry.

1962
02:19:51,230 --> 02:19:51,890
I'm sorry.

1963
02:20:01,140 --> 02:20:30,460
Good afternoon. Let's go to your Jackson Tucker. Today I came to thank everybody that helped talk about it. Yesterday's event, talk about it, Tuesday, due to the successful. I did, did you all get the flyers, excuse me, y'all got them, the flyer, okay. So I am expecting everyone to come out and support even other council members with the other words.

1964
02:20:30,460 --> 02:20:32,520
It's very important that we engage,

1965
02:20:32,580 --> 02:20:35,120
then we know that we just can't stay in our spaces,

1966
02:20:35,140 --> 02:20:36,560
but we gotta come out and support.

1967
02:20:37,640 --> 02:20:42,200
I do wanna thank North Diggs for giving me the opportunity

1968
02:20:42,200 --> 02:20:44,480
to be a G.I. reformer for the South Ward,

1969
02:20:44,480 --> 02:20:46,580
the South Ward environmental alliance,

1970
02:20:46,780 --> 02:20:48,460
Ms. Kim Gadden and her whole team.

1971
02:20:48,720 --> 02:20:49,420
I thank you.

1972
02:20:50,740 --> 02:20:55,620
Karim Adin, Marana from Water and Sua.

1973
02:20:55,660 --> 02:20:58,860
They got some people out there, Samar and his crew.

1974
02:20:58,860 --> 02:21:01,480
When I left here yesterday, I don't know if y'all knew

1975
02:21:01,480 --> 02:21:03,080
but I was in the back half in the conversation

1976
02:21:03,080 --> 02:21:04,760
because I needed some things.

1977
02:21:05,060 --> 02:21:07,220
So I'm actually happy that they showed up.

1978
02:21:07,280 --> 02:21:10,280
But when I got there, I was told to make sure

1979
02:21:10,280 --> 02:21:12,500
some of the his crew got the recognition.

1980
02:21:12,780 --> 02:21:15,960
They did come near us like almost 25 people there

1981
02:21:15,960 --> 02:21:18,840
doing anything to make sure at four o'clock.

1982
02:21:19,460 --> 02:21:20,580
We, you know, looked at clean

1983
02:21:20,580 --> 02:21:22,580
and it was present a booth for the community.

1984
02:21:22,980 --> 02:21:25,400
I also want to thank the office of I was prevention

1985
02:21:25,400 --> 02:21:26,420
and trauma recovery.

1986
02:21:26,420 --> 02:21:31,920
Ms. Collisio and Phil Hill, Lens Smith, they always show up for me.

1987
02:21:32,600 --> 02:21:38,520
Director Reddance, Tiffany Harris, Kisha Raspberry, the Department of Public Safety,

1988
02:21:38,780 --> 02:21:39,220
officers.

1989
02:21:40,020 --> 02:21:46,880
They had the own thing going on last night, but I did see Mr. Wilson, Captain Wilson.

1990
02:21:47,320 --> 02:21:51,800
Yes, you know you got a safety, Captain Wilson, and the other sergeant come through

1991
02:21:51,800 --> 02:21:53,460
and make sure that we was okay.

1992
02:21:54,460 --> 02:21:59,360
Unfortunately, somebody got they so cartooned because they didn't pay attention to the

1993
02:21:59,360 --> 02:22:04,680
signs that was put out, but they also had a Patricia's temporary sticker.

1994
02:22:05,540 --> 02:22:11,340
I want to thank Ms. Lorraine Scales because she knew that we needed that space, but also

1995
02:22:11,340 --> 02:22:14,560
she wanted to make sure that the community did not offend anybody.

1996
02:22:14,880 --> 02:22:20,440
So we went door to door knockin and also asked the police to come out so we could get that

1997
02:22:20,440 --> 02:22:26,820
You know, the person could remove it, but nobody knew him into the total truck shooter, so it was a little

1998
02:22:27,560 --> 02:22:35,580
You know upset, but they camp they also came out and engaged. I also want to thank brick city oven

1999
02:22:35,580 --> 02:22:43,280
A lot of times we think we know we need resources to get things done, but we also need to have the right conversations with community

2000
02:22:43,280 --> 02:22:47,720
So they can know how and put in initiative is to somebody that

2001
02:22:47,720 --> 02:22:51,000
That initiative was very important because all up and down

2002
02:22:51,000 --> 02:22:54,840
a cliff and having a car and the we see a lot of people just standing around

2003
02:22:54,840 --> 02:22:59,320
because you know we were put here so we can't actually go back to any

2004
02:22:59,320 --> 02:23:03,940
way but I familiar with just our community so if I could help alleviate

2005
02:23:03,940 --> 02:23:08,280
a little bit of that because it is about stormwater being a kind of accountable

2006
02:23:08,280 --> 02:23:13,000
for our community and environment but it's also about making sure that people know

2007
02:23:13,000 --> 02:23:17,700
the beautiful things that we have in North and we engage non properly so I

2008
02:23:17,700 --> 02:23:19,860
I was approved for a few more days.

2009
02:23:20,320 --> 02:23:23,180
I gave y'all the next two hopefully y'all will come out

2010
02:23:23,180 --> 02:23:26,440
and engage with the community because there's a lot of people

2011
02:23:26,440 --> 02:23:30,060
that will not show up when they see a noxile on a flyer.

2012
02:23:30,280 --> 02:23:32,740
So I thank y'all that y'all did not call it robbery,

2013
02:23:33,080 --> 02:23:35,200
Reverend Roundtree, you know I'm coming to you.

2014
02:23:35,760 --> 02:23:39,120
I really, truly appreciate you stepping up.

2015
02:23:39,120 --> 02:23:41,380
You have stepped up for me and so many different ways.

2016
02:23:41,500 --> 02:23:43,420
A lot of the other council members also.

2017
02:23:43,420 --> 02:23:47,020
I know y'all was busy, but it is very important.

2018
02:23:47,020 --> 02:23:51,820
And I think she's only, that's our tag line, but it works for the rest of the community

2019
02:23:51,820 --> 02:23:55,440
for all of us to feel safe, seen, and supported.

2020
02:23:55,980 --> 02:23:56,960
That is very important.

2021
02:23:57,400 --> 02:23:59,840
I also want to give a shout-out to the Seeds I'm a program.

2022
02:23:59,880 --> 02:24:01,120
I am one of the facilities.

2023
02:24:02,160 --> 02:24:07,480
I am very pleased with what was going on this year, and also how she said us down until

2024
02:24:07,480 --> 02:24:07,860
us.

2025
02:24:07,860 --> 02:24:13,400
How important it is to do this work, and this work will go outside of our workshops for

2026
02:24:13,400 --> 02:24:20,160
us engaging with them young adults for one day. So we all stepped up to the plea. I'm having

2027
02:24:20,160 --> 02:24:25,440
a very good feeling about the ministry, the administration right now and the city and what

2028
02:24:25,440 --> 02:24:31,640
they doing. But I do have a degree. I got to tick it. Now that I'm going to show how to take

2029
02:24:31,640 --> 02:24:38,780
care of because in the north and in the east, we could double part. They do not say anything

2030
02:24:38,780 --> 02:24:42,820
you about double parking. I pulled up in front of the Southwood environment to a

2031
02:24:42,820 --> 02:24:47,460
lion's to go in and out real quick. Folks at the office are still got to take

2032
02:24:47,460 --> 02:24:51,220
you. I did sell a cat there. I even went back and engaged with the office and

2033
02:24:51,220 --> 02:24:56,400
so we can't do this. Like you had to give it, we this is a underserved and

2034
02:24:56,400 --> 02:24:59,960
a struggling community. Like I just got my statement from me.

2035
02:25:08,080 --> 02:25:15,800
So I definitely don't want to have to pay that ticket because it's unfair. If I was in North North, if I was in the East, they wouldn't even bother me.

2036
02:25:16,440 --> 02:25:18,680
All right. No, I'm giving you all my ticket. I'm there, sir.

2037
02:25:19,120 --> 02:25:20,760
Thank you.

2038
02:25:20,760 --> 02:25:25,180
Rodney Davis, I'm pairing.

2039
02:25:43,240 --> 02:25:47,600
Excessive, I know you sold out, but you're high.

2040
02:25:48,080 --> 02:25:51,040
You know what I mean? Still reading on that rain date.

2041
02:25:51,600 --> 02:25:56,080
I know we're going to get it. Like the late great military crime used to say.

2042
02:25:56,700 --> 02:26:01,320
We're here for business. I originally signed up.

2043
02:26:01,320 --> 02:26:05,420
They ask you all to make a pledge, no more fundraise.

2044
02:26:06,640 --> 02:26:09,800
Everybody tied to the business community, the homeowners,

2045
02:26:10,840 --> 02:26:14,660
the residents, the voters, everybody tied to y'all fundraises.

2046
02:26:15,240 --> 02:26:18,500
Try to come another, you know, try to come up with another one that makes some money.

2047
02:26:19,360 --> 02:26:21,480
Now, if you're doing it for a bona fide charity,

2048
02:26:22,480 --> 02:26:26,320
like my three kings, while I know where the money going to the kids,

2049
02:26:27,000 --> 02:26:28,420
I'm all for it, count me in.

2050
02:26:28,420 --> 02:26:37,060
If you do it for a bonafide charity like RRC, RJC, that I know where the money going, and I think

2051
02:26:37,060 --> 02:26:39,600
you give yours to the kids that I'm all for.

2052
02:26:39,820 --> 02:26:43,840
But otherwise, you know, cut all the money from the raises out, and try some amounts.

2053
02:26:44,800 --> 02:26:51,360
So I changed up, you know, I got a call from Kathy from a affirmative action Friday after

2054
02:26:51,360 --> 02:26:56,360
I'm leaving a week away park, I got a call from Kathy, and said, did you know that the

2055
02:26:56,360 --> 02:27:01,060
I got sexually assaulted at the job site.

2056
02:27:01,500 --> 02:27:03,820
I said, I didn't know nothing about it.

2057
02:27:04,040 --> 02:27:07,260
You know, so right then and near Council President,

2058
02:27:07,460 --> 02:27:09,160
I went to a different amount.

2059
02:27:10,060 --> 02:27:15,240
I called her up talk to her and I believe a 100% you know.

2060
02:27:15,740 --> 02:27:20,320
Just because you got a little position or got a couple of dollars,

2061
02:27:21,140 --> 02:27:24,880
you can't be sexually assaulted black women in North

2062
02:27:24,880 --> 02:27:30,720
in the United States of America. We're not going for it. So I told him to call 1-800-Donna Jackson.

2063
02:27:31,360 --> 02:27:38,240
She called 1-800-Donna Jackson, 1-100-Donna Jackson answered the phone and got right on it.

2064
02:27:38,540 --> 02:27:45,520
I'm very serious because Gensetsley will man just decide to put his hand down your

2065
02:27:45,520 --> 02:27:51,120
blouse. I know sister B. We're not all women black women are the same. Sister B might have

2066
02:27:51,120 --> 02:28:00,420
me to try it, huh, you know. But, but the ball started rolling because my friend Joe

2067
02:28:00,420 --> 02:28:09,880
DeFrancino, he didn't spend all this money in S. County parks for you to slide over there

2068
02:28:09,880 --> 02:28:17,580
and sexually assault the black woman. Now, after we call 1,800 down in Jackson, I call

2069
02:28:18,220 --> 02:28:25,820
Commission of Richard because it took part in a week away part. He should let

2070
02:28:25,820 --> 02:28:29,640
down and get the ball rolling and we're going to get it on at the county

2071
02:28:29,640 --> 02:28:36,180
level. I can't go too much in details that they got the prosecutor on it and

2072
02:28:36,180 --> 02:28:37,400
that's his county sheriff.

2073
02:28:39,440 --> 02:28:43,140
But this, you know, this is the United States of America.

2074
02:28:45,400 --> 02:28:48,340
And you got to learn how to deal with the black woman.

2075
02:28:48,980 --> 02:28:52,480
You know, I see somebody slap the black woman all day in New York.

2076
02:28:53,340 --> 02:28:55,820
And it's trying to tell one day in the end, guys.

2077
02:28:56,140 --> 02:28:57,640
You do that with your race.

2078
02:28:58,220 --> 02:29:00,180
Now, what I go to Rockland County or Lakewood,

2079
02:29:00,980 --> 02:29:02,940
I don't, you know, I don't play with the women.

2080
02:29:03,120 --> 02:29:05,080
I go, I handle business and I go home.

2081
02:29:05,500 --> 02:29:09,560
So, when you come in the North Council President, do your job.

2082
02:29:09,560 --> 02:29:16,840
not a real bonfire contract that's like the Turner AJD that you see like going on downtown

2083
02:29:16,840 --> 02:29:22,120
building infrastructure. That's not allowed. We don't allow that in America. What you've got

2084
02:29:22,620 --> 02:29:29,900
hustlers, they come down, slide down, try to get the tax of tax abatement and then they go over there

2085
02:29:30,960 --> 02:29:36,700
and they get on the job and so they say, you work with me. And you're following me. So the girl,

2086
02:29:36,700 --> 02:29:41,280
some kind of women don't know what to do. So they got to pay the rent, they won,

2087
02:29:41,740 --> 02:29:47,400
pay check short, or be in homeless. I get it, you know. They have to be

2088
02:29:47,400 --> 02:29:51,880
for it opportunity. So we can't let that happen, Council President, on the

2089
02:29:51,880 --> 02:29:58,460
My Watch, on the Yo Watch, on the Action Jackson Watch. It ain't happen, you know.

2090
02:29:58,640 --> 02:29:59,960
You might think you've got a way to win a-

2091
02:30:00,000 --> 02:30:08,480
For now, but we're coming for you, make no mistake or but. You know, and I'm glad you're here. I'm glad you're

2092
02:30:08,480 --> 02:30:16,440
leadership is here. And if any type of allegations, council president, against some of these

2093
02:30:17,040 --> 02:30:24,160
hustling developers, hustling contractors, say, listen, we got until you clear this matter, we

2094
02:30:24,160 --> 02:30:31,940
not giving you nothing. No tax abatement, no inspections, no nothing. You can't go back

2095
02:30:31,940 --> 02:30:36,800
and forth with the black woman when she becomes a woman. Like when you have an Audi,

2096
02:30:37,640 --> 02:30:42,160
the pad has an Audi, you already have a planned out. So you're dealing with the summer kids,

2097
02:30:42,480 --> 02:30:46,300
isn't this, you can't even think and never let say you gotta get paid a year time. You gotta

2098
02:30:46,300 --> 02:30:50,400
have budget all that red. Let's see you in your little. Thank you.

2099
02:30:50,400 --> 02:30:52,480
Shall I

2100
02:30:55,620 --> 02:30:55,800
come

2101
02:31:13,170 --> 02:31:40,890
before each of you, not with arrogance, but with humility, not seeking applause for very witness, not to exalt myself, but to testify to what I have seen, God I have seen it, I have seen a blackly tenant entrusted with protecting the public, ask me to look twice at a photograph of an unknown suspect, then ask me to remove my mass so that he could compare my face to the one in the picture,

2102
02:31:40,890 --> 02:31:44,690
I had not entered that precinct as a suspect.

2103
02:31:45,310 --> 02:31:50,170
I entered as a concern citizen to speak about the growing danger of facing pedestrians

2104
02:31:50,170 --> 02:31:56,550
and a city where civilians and even police officers driving without sirens or emergency

2105
02:31:56,550 --> 02:32:00,290
lights had nearly struck me and other people.

2106
02:32:00,650 --> 02:32:05,610
Yet instead of hearing my concern, I was treated as though my presence itself

2107
02:32:05,610 --> 02:32:12,770
demanded suspicion. God, I have seen it. I have seen people who once cried out for God

2108
02:32:12,770 --> 02:32:19,230
to move in this city. Now live as though they no longer lead him. I have seen influence

2109
02:32:19,230 --> 02:32:24,690
become an idol. Some speak as though they're authors, they're wealth, they're followers,

2110
02:32:25,050 --> 02:32:31,110
they're fads, or they're a title that's elevated them to a place where they answer to no one.

2111
02:32:31,110 --> 02:32:33,610
But no office out, raise heaven.

2112
02:32:33,970 --> 02:32:35,790
God, I have seen it.

2113
02:32:36,270 --> 02:32:39,070
I have seen suspicion become policy,

2114
02:32:39,530 --> 02:32:41,690
yet persistence brought change,

2115
02:32:42,010 --> 02:32:45,990
and one major supermarket at the months of speaking out.

2116
02:32:46,270 --> 02:32:50,230
I'm still working on fixing the issue at a pharmacy,

2117
02:32:50,630 --> 02:32:51,730
but I have seen it.

2118
02:32:52,050 --> 02:32:56,870
I have seen men hunger for power while families hunger for bread.

2119
02:32:56,870 --> 02:33:08,230
I have seen political ambition, consume conversations that should have been centered on the poor, the forgotten and the vulnerable, one group fights for power.

2120
02:33:08,670 --> 02:33:13,090
Another group fights merely to survive. God, I have seen him.

2121
02:33:13,510 --> 02:33:20,490
I have seen the younger generation say, I am smarter, I am more educated, I am more brilliant, I am more competent.

2122
02:33:20,490 --> 02:33:27,410
I understand the times better than those who came to form it, move over its my time now.

2123
02:33:27,670 --> 02:33:34,570
And I have seen the generation of our elders answer not with wisdom but with contempt.

2124
02:33:35,030 --> 02:33:39,710
I have seen and elders fit at B and say, you're nothing but a Haitian.

2125
02:33:40,570 --> 02:33:45,810
For a city cannot stand when one generation despises another.

2126
02:33:46,070 --> 02:33:47,350
God, I have seen it.

2127
02:33:47,350 --> 02:34:17,190
I have seen the insults, I have seen the intimidation, I have seen contempt shown towards neighbors, and I have seen people intoxicated by influence, behave as though they themselves were gods, but there is only one God, every officer, every politician, every executive, every citizen must answer to that God, God, I have seen him, I have watched people enter public office with conviction,

2128
02:34:17,190 --> 02:34:23,910
and leave it what compromise I have seen it. Yet in God's mercy and absolute sovereignty

2129
02:34:23,910 --> 02:34:31,010
I stand, but never abandoned. Without God, no amount of development can heal more decaying.

2130
02:34:31,110 --> 02:34:37,970
No skyscraper can replace integrity. No budget can purchase righteousness. No election

2131
02:34:37,970 --> 02:34:45,530
can save people who refuse humility. To no workers and to the leaders of the cities.

2132
02:34:45,530 --> 02:34:53,670
I say this. Remember who sustained this city when hope seemed distant. It was not human brilliance alone.

2133
02:34:53,830 --> 02:34:59,530
It was the mercy of an almighty God. Protect your, present your policies.

2134
02:35:00,000 --> 02:35:26,440
Lecture Legislation, Government with wisdom, but never imagine that government can replace God. The greatness of a city is not measured by the size of its economy. It is not measured by the height of its skyline. It is not measured by the value of its real estate. It is measured by the quality of life for its people. It is measured by whether children can walk safely through their neighborhoods.

2135
02:35:26,440 --> 02:35:32,760
It is measured by whether the elderly can live with dignity, it is measured by whether working

2136
02:35:32,760 --> 02:35:38,380
families can afford a home, it is measured by whether justice and impartial.

2137
02:35:39,040 --> 02:35:46,120
Lead under the authority of God, let every citizen carry his or her own grip, let every

2138
02:35:46,120 --> 02:35:53,120
neighborhood bear its responsibility, let every generation honor the next, let every

2139
02:35:53,120 --> 02:35:58,940
That needs to stand beside the other, like this city, once again acknowledge the guide

2140
02:35:58,940 --> 02:36:06,300
who hears the cries of the afflicted, defends the oppressed, humble, surprised, and exhausts

2141
02:36:06,300 --> 02:36:06,680
the humble.

2142
02:36:09,290 --> 02:36:10,130
Thank you.

2143
02:36:10,350 --> 02:36:11,030
That was good.

2144
02:36:11,090 --> 02:36:11,510
Very good.

2145
02:36:11,550 --> 02:36:12,010
Thank you.

2146
02:36:12,310 --> 02:36:13,550
Leonid Reed?

2147
02:36:13,970 --> 02:36:15,290
That was good.

2148
02:36:26,380 --> 02:36:27,400
That was good.

2149
02:36:27,400 --> 02:36:37,540
broad street, and I have a father with my father and I pray this, for that place moved

2150
02:36:37,540 --> 02:36:42,580
in there, I don't have no misimpressed in the windows,

2151
02:36:45,460 --> 02:36:49,180
and all of a sudden, they start

2152
02:36:49,180 --> 02:36:55,900
spraying some kind of chemicals, some like gas or whatever, they'll make a mistake.

2153
02:36:55,900 --> 02:37:05,080
So what happens are when border air quality device lets you know what the condition of

2154
02:37:05,080 --> 02:37:14,180
their army lets you know where the air poison is or whatever gas or whatever.

2155
02:37:14,660 --> 02:37:23,000
So this device got numbers on it, it would go higher, it would be long, it would be long,

2156
02:37:25,780 --> 02:37:29,860
So every night, every day they start spraying

2157
02:37:29,860 --> 02:37:33,760
this type of chemical, whatever, and a couple of times,

2158
02:37:34,100 --> 02:37:39,600
I passed out on a floor, so then I wake up.

2159
02:37:40,920 --> 02:37:44,280
Then I get up on a week, I can't hardly walk.

2160
02:37:45,820 --> 02:37:50,400
Then I'll go downstairs and I'll tell them that the people

2161
02:37:52,780 --> 02:37:57,520
downstairs about it and they look at me like I'm crazy. I said, well, there's somebody

2162
02:37:57,520 --> 02:38:06,080
spraying something there. So another day, I went, I went to my apartment and it

2163
02:38:06,080 --> 02:38:13,760
started spraying, so I had a guy of stairs knocking on my floor, like bam, bam, bam.

2164
02:38:13,860 --> 02:38:18,500
So I said, and so I blew up there, I'm not going to the door. I said, man, you spray

2165
02:38:18,500 --> 02:38:23,800
stop down my apartment. It's no, I'm not spreading on your apartment. I said, you spread

2166
02:38:23,800 --> 02:38:29,380
a circle, that's not enough. I smell the same old, come down your apartment down in the

2167
02:38:29,380 --> 02:38:40,560
mouth. So I said, well, you don't have some. So I went back down my apartment. You know,

2168
02:38:40,760 --> 02:38:47,340
I said, you know, I was thinking, I said, I got to get the hell out of here. So I

2169
02:38:47,340 --> 02:38:51,500
We're now, we're now starting to get some air in my lungs.

2170
02:38:52,760 --> 02:38:55,520
Because you know, for whatever the stuff they was wearing

2171
02:38:55,520 --> 02:38:59,060
has not run out of my nose like water,

2172
02:39:00,020 --> 02:39:03,040
and my chest was torn tight enough, and they couldn't hold it

2173
02:39:03,040 --> 02:39:03,700
free.

2174
02:39:04,520 --> 02:39:06,100
So I said, with the air, I'm asking myself,

2175
02:39:06,460 --> 02:39:08,580
something, somebody right with this problem.

2176
02:39:09,380 --> 02:39:12,400
So the next day, I went downstairs,

2177
02:39:12,400 --> 02:39:17,680
I told him the soup, the manager, the manager,

2178
02:39:20,060 --> 02:39:23,400
and she said she can see somebody up in a second out.

2179
02:39:23,640 --> 02:39:28,200
I said, we got to do some, because I can't stay in my apartment like that.

2180
02:39:28,540 --> 02:39:33,760
And I said, matter of fact, I said, y'all have, I said, I've been here, I've been here three years.

2181
02:39:33,760 --> 02:39:43,440
And I put no mission plans or not in my world, I got a ghost bag, all my windows, duct tape, all my windows, and a sea.

2182
02:39:43,940 --> 02:39:52,860
And I said, well, yeah, yeah, I got to be some, the one day, I saw the, the super come out my promise.

2183
02:39:52,960 --> 02:39:59,160
I said, what you come around my family for? He said, well, some digging. I said, nothing digging my family.

2184
02:40:00,180 --> 02:40:05,320
Then I went toward the crowd, they went all too much stuff,

2185
02:40:07,820 --> 02:40:09,900
all too much stuff, they went up to my paperwork,

2186
02:40:12,460 --> 02:40:31,480
I don't know. I just can't take it no more. I got nowhere else to go. The key spread left off. I just got left the hospital down the day, just got up to the day I'm hospital. Because the key spread left off, making me sick.

2187
02:40:39,200 --> 02:40:40,080
Thank you.

2188
02:40:40,100 --> 02:40:40,620
Thank you.

2189
02:40:40,620 --> 02:40:42,420
It's the most, it's read.

2190
02:40:43,080 --> 02:40:43,560
That's like the album.

2191
02:40:44,560 --> 02:40:45,320
That's one thing.

2192
02:40:46,080 --> 02:40:47,460
Yes, Mr. Reed, hi.

2193
02:40:48,620 --> 02:40:50,480
First of all, I'm so sorry that this is,

2194
02:40:50,980 --> 02:40:52,380
you're experiencing this.

2195
02:40:52,520 --> 02:40:56,380
One of my team members is coming into the chambers now

2196
02:40:56,380 --> 02:40:58,400
and going to talk to you and get your information

2197
02:40:58,400 --> 02:41:00,200
and we're going to help you out.

2198
02:41:00,820 --> 02:41:00,920
OK?

2199
02:41:01,240 --> 02:41:01,720
Thank you.

2200
02:41:01,960 --> 02:41:03,000
All right, thank you.

2201
02:41:06,270 --> 02:41:07,050
Additional Turner?

2202
02:41:07,050 --> 02:41:09,690
My name is.

2203
02:41:17,140 --> 02:41:18,620
Top draft noon everybody.

2204
02:41:20,800 --> 02:41:21,600
Reginald Turner.

2205
02:41:23,100 --> 02:41:24,560
I want to bring you a win of something.

2206
02:41:24,840 --> 02:41:26,340
I mean, it's 1060 also.

2207
02:41:26,720 --> 02:41:28,420
I'm a's the one who brought them up here.

2208
02:41:28,900 --> 02:41:30,560
Because so it's a few of them that has,

2209
02:41:30,860 --> 02:41:32,500
it's, it's, it's, it's sicknesses

2210
02:41:32,500 --> 02:41:34,820
that physically can't make it but he,

2211
02:41:34,940 --> 02:41:36,100
he pushed himself up here.

2212
02:41:36,240 --> 02:41:38,100
So I'm here to speak on, I want to,

2213
02:41:38,240 --> 02:41:41,160
I'll speak on some I got a couple of this years.

2214
02:41:41,160 --> 02:41:42,220
I'm not to work with the club,

2215
02:41:42,400 --> 02:41:44,400
I'm running down but I can't

2216
02:41:44,400 --> 02:41:50,120
every thing because I know I have enough time but moving from studio to one

2217
02:41:50,120 --> 02:41:55,100
bedroom you got to set up like they said in the least we can't do that but

2218
02:41:55,100 --> 02:42:00,500
they charging people 500 dollars on the side to move them but when you

2219
02:42:00,500 --> 02:42:05,540
have somebody new to come in I don't care what race it is they're allowed to go

2220
02:42:05,540 --> 02:42:08,880
straight in that one bedroom before the people that's there before us which I

2221
02:42:08,880 --> 02:42:13,660
think is very unfair it should be seniority second they got to level clock

2222
02:42:13,660 --> 02:42:20,660
I have people that work at night, they get off at 11 o'clock and I can't handle business like I'm in I feel like I'm incarcerated again

2223
02:42:21,400 --> 02:42:25,740
I'm like I'm in the county jail, and I think that should be a lift because we all adults in here

2224
02:42:26,200 --> 02:42:35,510
You've got people that work through shift and things like that so and then each apartment comes with a TV

2225
02:42:35,510 --> 02:42:39,450
So so I've been in that apartment the TV been missing it was stolen

2226
02:42:39,450 --> 02:42:43,990
They had the bridge program bringing a small one with an antenna connected to it.

2227
02:42:43,990 --> 02:42:47,730
They've been telling me for almost since I've been in here, they're going to replace it.

2228
02:42:48,030 --> 02:42:49,210
That's something else.

2229
02:42:51,450 --> 02:42:55,890
I want to read off this list. I'm going to try to go through this real quick.

2230
02:42:57,630 --> 02:43:01,670
There's got oldest types of garbage disposal to shoot if we have.

2231
02:43:01,730 --> 02:43:03,650
They have been cleaned since the building has been there.

2232
02:43:03,870 --> 02:43:06,010
So it's fat. So it's oldest. It smells.

2233
02:43:06,010 --> 02:43:13,450
and only those mop and sweep the floors. Those needs sterilize. They stink bad, so that's one of the things.

2234
02:43:13,570 --> 02:43:21,330
Each garbage shoe needs to be sterilized. They are infested, mice, rats, and roaches are on different

2235
02:43:21,330 --> 02:43:26,210
certain floors. They're still there. They keep an eye on it. You've got family members that have

2236
02:43:26,210 --> 02:43:31,770
a problem with their family disease. They make this department a war responsible to clean it

2237
02:43:31,770 --> 02:43:36,670
still an already property, because some of them, you know, I'm all they do sometime, I keep

2238
02:43:36,670 --> 02:43:41,930
cash in the, I don't like running to the machine. So they still all is property. So who

2239
02:43:41,930 --> 02:43:48,510
was headed at? You got, uh, residence, when they, the only way to find out somebody deceased,

2240
02:43:48,570 --> 02:43:53,610
they're in their apartment dead for three or four days, they may be far. The order is what,

2241
02:43:53,650 --> 02:43:58,570
the, the order is what make us aware of them past the way. So we have to go to the office

2242
02:43:58,570 --> 02:44:02,930
and reported. They don't have no ones that's responsible to go check for people that don't have

2243
02:44:02,930 --> 02:44:05,030
family or check the room's period.

2244
02:44:07,430 --> 02:44:10,030
They also request it. They really need a license. We don't

2245
02:44:10,030 --> 02:44:15,390
have no license, social worker. Because the city is like a locomotive of a little something,

2246
02:44:15,410 --> 02:44:19,490
but you have some that can't move. It's no license, or social worker is going to build like

2247
02:44:19,490 --> 02:44:23,190
a health and the system. Because anytime you go to the office, either they want to rip money

2248
02:44:23,190 --> 02:44:25,330
or something else.

2249
02:44:28,130 --> 02:44:31,210
Residents need more visits for exterminators.

2250
02:44:31,570 --> 02:44:34,150
Oh, the exterminators that come to come once a month.

2251
02:44:34,910 --> 02:44:36,910
They will ask the request, can they come a little more?

2252
02:44:36,970 --> 02:44:39,330
I don't know if it works, but they ask the request

2253
02:44:39,330 --> 02:44:41,470
and the exterminators come a little more.

2254
02:44:42,730 --> 02:44:45,550
And the management need to put federal law into practice

2255
02:44:45,550 --> 02:44:48,150
when hiring a person regardless of race, religion,

2256
02:44:48,150 --> 02:44:51,230
in the color because every time you see some of my hide,

2257
02:44:51,230 --> 02:44:55,570
hi, it's their spanish and it's like it's all balanced

2258
02:44:55,570 --> 02:44:58,510
of being treated fairly because you know most people,

2259
02:44:58,610 --> 02:44:59,970
they're going to put their own plug, they own people.

2260
02:45:00,000 --> 02:45:29,900
When first, you know, push us to the back. That's what I speak about for was like, I'm not telling you what you do, but they need to change some pieces in office, because some of them stuck up in that whole way. And they got it like designed and ways they'd run it unfairly. And we'd give a treat to real, you know, like the incident like I spoke to a while ago. Then they had a young grocery, like 30 years old female security, or she'd do as verbally abuse, or senior citizens.

2261
02:45:30,400 --> 02:45:32,080
She should be replaced retrain.

2262
02:45:32,160 --> 02:45:33,120
Why do I see that?

2263
02:45:33,140 --> 02:45:34,780
Because the incident a month ago,

2264
02:45:35,340 --> 02:45:37,520
she was followed by a resident.

2265
02:45:37,800 --> 02:45:40,100
She verbally abused the guy so bad.

2266
02:45:40,300 --> 02:45:41,800
He followed her when she got a work.

2267
02:45:42,180 --> 02:45:43,580
And he pulled the knife out to stab her.

2268
02:45:43,580 --> 02:45:44,700
She made them.

2269
02:45:44,940 --> 02:45:46,280
But they swept that under the road.

2270
02:45:47,040 --> 02:45:47,960
So I want to bring her to the church.

2271
02:45:48,320 --> 02:45:49,520
Because if it happens again.

2272
02:45:49,680 --> 02:45:51,240
Because she got a bad mouth.

2273
02:45:51,360 --> 02:45:53,220
Somebody may pull her going out the next time.

2274
02:45:54,000 --> 02:45:54,980
This is just, you know,

2275
02:45:55,220 --> 02:45:56,020
I'm not giving no idea.

2276
02:45:56,460 --> 02:45:57,280
But things happen.

2277
02:45:57,280 --> 02:46:00,520
And you have people that have meant to psychological problems.

2278
02:46:00,520 --> 02:46:01,960
This is a senior system building.

2279
02:46:02,140 --> 02:46:04,680
You should be trained and know how to deal with older people.

2280
02:46:05,280 --> 02:46:06,440
You've got to humble yourself.

2281
02:46:06,580 --> 02:46:07,800
You don't curse them out.

2282
02:46:07,880 --> 02:46:08,100
You know?

2283
02:46:08,540 --> 02:46:09,860
But that's all I got.

2284
02:46:10,060 --> 02:46:11,020
I really want to bring your attention.

2285
02:46:11,480 --> 02:46:12,480
And thanks for listening.

2286
02:46:12,740 --> 02:46:13,440
Thank you so much.

2287
02:46:14,220 --> 02:46:15,420
Thank you so much.

2288
02:46:17,380 --> 02:46:18,120
Mr. Turner.

2289
02:46:18,400 --> 02:46:18,760
Thank you.

2290
02:46:19,360 --> 02:46:19,460
County.

2291
02:46:20,560 --> 02:46:26,040
Let me just offer you a couple of things because 10, 60 is one that takes me all the time.

2292
02:46:26,040 --> 02:46:33,580
We have had issues there with all levels of stuff and I know what needs to happen in every senior building in this town

2293
02:46:33,580 --> 02:46:36,760
We need to have a tenant organization a sack

2294
02:46:37,140 --> 02:46:42,960
Second of all we need to go back to old school where I heard my other council colleague over here talk about the floor captain

2295
02:46:42,960 --> 02:46:51,240
It's exactly what we need to do that because what I see that has happened in since super-son of Sandy that still has not been corrected by this city

2296
02:46:51,240 --> 02:46:54,820
is we have no emergency management plan in place.

2297
02:46:55,500 --> 02:46:58,260
When Councilman Raimosa and I had to respond

2298
02:46:58,260 --> 02:47:03,380
to the fire at 920 Franklin, I might be wrong number,

2299
02:47:03,880 --> 02:47:08,920
but at Franklin when the explosion happened,

2300
02:47:09,420 --> 02:47:12,020
not inside Stephen Crane inside the senior bill,

2301
02:47:12,300 --> 02:47:14,280
and burned up to eight floors.

2302
02:47:14,820 --> 02:47:16,640
And we had to respond to that.

2303
02:47:16,640 --> 02:47:18,680
It was not a response from the management

2304
02:47:19,400 --> 02:47:24,600
within North housing authority to assist those seniors getting out. So it's

2305
02:47:25,520 --> 02:47:28,280
Louie and I are walking down the stairs. I got to walk and he got to

2306
02:47:28,280 --> 02:47:33,380
cane. It's Larry and I are walking down it could be next to me. So you know, so you

2307
02:47:33,380 --> 02:47:38,280
get, he has the crutches and I have the walker. So we were trying to help each other

2308
02:47:38,280 --> 02:47:42,040
get down from the ninth floor from the eighth floor and we have got to put some

2309
02:47:42,040 --> 02:47:48,300
things in place. We've got to go back to from that experience on Franklin at

2310
02:47:48,300 --> 02:47:56,300
Councilman Ramos and I went into, when those phones went down, right, the seniors couldn't

2311
02:47:56,300 --> 02:48:01,160
remember the family phone number. So one of my ideas that I'm asking my council colleagues

2312
02:48:01,160 --> 02:48:05,900
to work with me on and I don't think any of us have a problem is going back to a manual

2313
02:48:05,900 --> 02:48:11,540
phone book so that I'll just can write down at least those top three, four, five emergency numbers.

2314
02:48:12,000 --> 02:48:15,960
So when something like that happens, they could call because when we began to try to move

2315
02:48:15,960 --> 02:48:26,440
them with the assistance of Councilman Council over to the, and over to, uh,

2316
02:48:26,740 --> 02:48:31,680
Grathana Avenue, Rex and her, they weren't able to call and say, hey, mom, you know,

2317
02:48:31,680 --> 02:48:36,240
door, I'm going over here meet me bad, you know, so that, that communication was also

2318
02:48:36,240 --> 02:48:41,900
broken. So we have to do better, but we have to form tenant organizations so we could

2319
02:48:41,900 --> 02:48:46,080
to get back to the structure that we need inside our communities to help each other.

2320
02:48:46,580 --> 02:48:50,980
It should not take for the body to lay there three or four days as a community.

2321
02:48:51,300 --> 02:48:53,440
If you're working at night, you might not assume it's NASA.

2322
02:48:53,920 --> 02:48:58,140
But we need to know that, you know, Larry and I in the lobby every day.

2323
02:48:58,420 --> 02:49:03,160
And if he doesn't come on Tuesday, if I don't see him Wednesday, that needs to be a trigger.

2324
02:49:03,660 --> 02:49:06,520
I'm going to also do a public service announcement right here.

2325
02:49:06,640 --> 02:49:08,860
Look y'all out in the hood in the community.

2326
02:49:09,140 --> 02:49:10,620
Start checking on your people.

2327
02:49:10,620 --> 02:49:14,720
Because, and some people don't have anybody, I get that.

2328
02:49:15,020 --> 02:49:18,240
But some of us have got to do better checking on our family members.

2329
02:49:18,540 --> 02:49:21,220
Don't stay upset with your sister because she wouldn't then get it $10.

2330
02:49:21,720 --> 02:49:22,720
It's not worth that.

2331
02:49:22,760 --> 02:49:25,960
Their family checking, at most people are posting now.

2332
02:49:26,240 --> 02:49:28,040
They just check on each other, that's friends on Facebook.

2333
02:49:28,380 --> 02:49:31,720
We really need to seriously do that because I'm telling you,

2334
02:49:32,060 --> 02:49:35,280
the amount of deaths that we've had period,

2335
02:49:35,980 --> 02:49:38,820
it's just been too much, particularly in these last two years.

2336
02:49:38,820 --> 02:49:48,280
And the amount of people that we are finding in these units deceased is heart breaking for all of us because we know what's happening on a basis.

2337
02:49:49,300 --> 02:49:53,040
So I'm sure Councilwoman B. and proud of the council colleagues will come.

2338
02:49:53,440 --> 02:49:56,900
But we're going to set up something to come in to do a tenant meeting.

2339
02:49:57,860 --> 02:49:59,820
We're also set up something to meet with the ownership.

2340
02:50:00,000 --> 02:50:29,980
Again, because they do do bandage approach to everything. Every Wednesday as a heat issue, every somebody as a cooling issue, and all of these buildings have to be held accountable, particularly when they have the HVAC systems, and they're not servicing them properly. And we got to get on them. That's why I was so warm, cold in the course of the yesterday. It's got to start being money, money, money, money, penalties to make sure people are living in good conditions. So Councilwoman Bay and I, whoever else wants to come to

2341
02:50:29,980 --> 02:50:33,240
what it would do something, what 1060, and also,

2342
02:50:33,300 --> 02:50:36,280
Council as a whole, I'll ask through the clerk's office

2343
02:50:36,280 --> 02:50:40,720
through the chair of Councilman Quentana if we could send the ownership

2344
02:50:40,720 --> 02:50:45,780
of 1060 broad street to start a meeting request with the ownership

2345
02:50:45,780 --> 02:50:48,780
and the members of that building so we can get things rectified.

2346
02:50:49,100 --> 02:50:51,300
Thank you. Okay. That's another good time.

2347
02:50:51,680 --> 02:50:54,120
Thank you. I just want to thank you. You need some assistance.

2348
02:50:55,000 --> 02:50:58,320
You could give me a call or contact because I don't want to help. Thank you.

2349
02:50:58,320 --> 02:51:00,100
That's almost it.

2350
02:51:00,360 --> 02:51:04,480
I'm working the company that, that's in the East Ward.

2351
02:51:05,200 --> 02:51:11,980
Also, if you could include Councilman Ossova, that 1060 happens to be in the East Ward.

2352
02:51:13,100 --> 02:51:19,320
And again, the company is the Fairstat, the same company that purchased tuna vada.

2353
02:51:20,360 --> 02:51:23,900
So again, we need to engage with them.

2354
02:51:23,900 --> 02:51:35,560
Fairspot came to Newark and Boyd Asset Plaza, which is 1060, so again, City has been very good to that entity,

2355
02:51:36,240 --> 02:51:42,420
with tax abatements and et cetera. So I think we should, and I can cover with you is set up a meeting

2356
02:51:42,420 --> 02:51:48,580
with the management, and then with the tenants, but also to invite council and the silver

2357
02:51:48,580 --> 02:51:50,800
I have to be his ward.

2358
02:51:51,620 --> 02:51:52,580
All right.

2359
02:51:52,600 --> 02:51:53,920
Yes, sir.

2360
02:51:54,140 --> 02:51:55,360
Queen Dinesha Clyburn.

2361
02:52:03,940 --> 02:52:04,380
Okay.

2362
02:52:08,730 --> 02:52:10,650
Queen Dinesha Clyburn, North New Jersey.

2363
02:52:10,870 --> 02:52:13,430
I am the community liaison manager for McDonald's.

2364
02:52:14,310 --> 02:52:15,510
Now, thank you for the city.

2365
02:52:15,610 --> 02:52:17,550
I think you all understand that for it.

2366
02:52:19,070 --> 02:52:21,550
So, I'm a recent real quick.

2367
02:52:21,870 --> 02:52:23,650
I'm a little confused about it.

2368
02:52:23,650 --> 02:52:25,930
It really has nothing to do with me in particular.

2369
02:52:25,930 --> 02:52:33,010
But because people sign up for these meetings and they don't leave space for other people and they don't show up other people

2370
02:52:33,010 --> 02:52:40,510
Can't get their messages out so Pat council this is for you. I'm just reading don't you know, I could have called you, but

2371
02:52:40,510 --> 02:52:43,230
Everybody needs and there was going on so it says

2372
02:52:43,230 --> 02:52:45,950
Expect council what happened to a

2373
02:52:45,950 --> 02:52:51,950
124,000 that was awarded to weekway park association for valence prevention program

2374
02:52:51,950 --> 02:52:58,730
He wanted the WPA to share it with the WPSA, that was not a part of the proposal.

2375
02:52:59,310 --> 02:53:09,370
It's more or two weeks, so I want to give it to you personally, so you can really have a meeting, and I will love to sit in that too, because it keeps coming to my phone, and to my inbox, and that was on Facebook.

2376
02:53:09,850 --> 02:53:15,470
And I know you could be a better person, and take care of this matter, please, and thank you.

2377
02:53:15,850 --> 02:53:19,030
So I could get to my business, because I got enough of my place.

2378
02:53:19,030 --> 02:53:29,050
So, what I came here for is today is that I oversee 14 McDonald's within the state of New Jersey, right?

2379
02:53:29,190 --> 02:53:37,630
And we are a service of food. We have become a camp. We have become a safe zone.

2380
02:53:38,010 --> 02:53:46,270
And when I say the state of New Jersey all the way from the state of Chicago, Jersey Bayon, New York, everything you name it.

2381
02:53:46,270 --> 02:53:52,650
Everywhere. I'm coming to know I can't particularly because this is my city and you guys are my council and

2382
02:53:53,530 --> 02:53:55,110
We need help

2383
02:53:55,110 --> 02:54:02,050
I'm not afraid to ask for help. I know how to work with people even even if even if we don't know how to get along the other terms

2384
02:54:02,050 --> 02:54:06,810
This is a term. I need y'all for you start it all gives it 12 and

2385
02:54:06,810 --> 02:54:14,090
180-8 spring for 11 will be doing big family nice, and we are asking you all to come. I know it's essential

2386
02:54:14,090 --> 02:54:21,290
But I want you all to come because this is going to travel within the Fairbrew Street, which is the Iron Bound section.

2387
02:54:21,850 --> 02:54:25,990
It's going to be in Broadway, which is Rainbow section.

2388
02:54:26,410 --> 02:54:28,190
It's going to be on West Market.

2389
02:54:29,130 --> 02:54:32,090
We will have love and for you, tap and please come.

2390
02:54:32,890 --> 02:54:35,150
I'm sorry we didn't get a McDonald's over there yet.

2391
02:54:35,150 --> 02:54:36,110
It's coming soon.

2392
02:54:36,690 --> 02:54:39,270
But I'm asking for you all help.

2393
02:54:39,290 --> 02:54:42,810
Sometimes I do this so much helping different people every day.

2394
02:54:42,810 --> 02:54:48,190
to where's though. I'm dreaming that I did the work already and I didn't even do it. I really

2395
02:54:48,190 --> 02:54:55,950
need you guys. Please. Our babies are in the crisis with school come in and things that happen

2396
02:54:55,950 --> 02:54:59,970
and we're willing to feed them a hamburger, cheeseburger.

2397
02:55:00,000 --> 02:55:29,260
We're fine to drink to do homework with them for two hours. You all have all these teams out here and they keep saying, we're doing this and we're doing that. I don't seem to meet up with him. No, we're sorry, I wasn't less than some music and food. Yesterday, I went to, we all set up a table at the West Side Park. That was amazing. No fights, no arguments, no nothing. But what I do have a problem with because I'm going to give you all credit when it's due. When y'all come around with y'all on to Rogers, right?

2398
02:55:29,260 --> 02:55:35,640
Not to say it's everybody, but if the shoe fits where it I did see us today, but I stood up late, and that's my fault

2399
02:55:35,640 --> 02:55:41,280
But there was an answer rise that they come through and there was tables on the side with me

2400
02:55:41,280 --> 02:55:47,750
And then there was the OVP and the police and all of them other people and the mayor and the answer rise to pitches with them

2401
02:55:48,160 --> 02:55:53,220
And I thought it was just me because sometimes I do think you all have a personal problem with me, but I could be overreact

2402
02:55:54,140 --> 02:56:02,740
Nobody got pictures with them here, and I think it's a big concern that we're doing a service to the people that we all be awarded the same way

2403
02:56:02,740 --> 02:56:11,980
It we're asking for you guys help send your age and represent their sense of somebody to come to support us because the work that most of us do it is not easy

2404
02:56:12,780 --> 02:56:15,880
I'm now even into mentorship

2405
02:56:16,620 --> 02:56:19,860
I got a case that McDonald's and again, we're just a restaurant

2406
02:56:19,860 --> 02:56:23,390
This is just a franchise where there was an 18-year-old that was

2407
02:56:24,180 --> 02:56:31,140
Took in from someone in Jersey, I'm not going to say where you're cuz I need to investigate it properly all the way from Texas

2408
02:56:31,140 --> 02:56:40,820
Worf and Texas all the way down here. I had to call the nook director. Thank you from the home is um prevention and they didn't help me out

2409
02:56:40,820 --> 02:56:47,340
I don't believe in a traffic in humans like I've never thought that that would hit my favorite person

2410
02:56:47,340 --> 02:56:54,840
that it took me somewhere. We need help. McDonald's is dealing with a lot because I'm there. I need

2411
02:56:54,840 --> 02:57:00,080
you all hands on deck. I don't care how we do. I need to meet with all of y'all to talk about

2412
02:57:00,080 --> 02:57:06,100
all put cyclists because it's a lot and it's not enough police. It's not enough nobody's to do

2413
02:57:06,100 --> 02:57:10,280
all this work and I know you guys. If I'm getting it like this, I could just imagine what someone you

2414
02:57:10,280 --> 02:57:15,280
Thank you. Thank you so much. Councilmember Biden. Thank you, Councilman.

2415
02:57:16,120 --> 02:57:23,160
Councilmember President. Queen. Thank you for the work that you do for our babies and in community.

2416
02:57:23,900 --> 02:57:30,200
We get it. I don't think anybody here has a problem with supporting any good work that happens in the community.

2417
02:57:30,780 --> 02:57:38,520
Please, this send us the information email it to us and we'll definitely see what support that we can provide.

2418
02:57:38,520 --> 02:57:47,340
but just sort of sort of information and you know if the information that takes too long in the email,

2419
02:57:47,940 --> 02:57:50,720
you got the number. Call. We got you.

2420
02:57:51,000 --> 02:57:51,700
You know someone else?

2421
02:57:52,260 --> 02:57:53,160
Thank you, Chair.

2422
02:57:54,160 --> 02:57:57,160
To respond to your magical email.

2423
02:57:57,840 --> 02:58:05,700
So there are two organizations that are in the South ward that need to learn how to be good stewards with each other.

2424
02:58:05,700 --> 02:58:12,340
One of the individuals put in for a grant through the Office of Violence Prevention and

2425
02:58:12,340 --> 02:58:18,360
Trauma Recovery when they came to the council meeting to address the council about what

2426
02:58:18,360 --> 02:58:22,760
their proposal was, what their plan was, they had no plan.

2427
02:58:23,580 --> 02:58:31,900
My council colleagues questioned them as well, deferred the item, moved it along when they came back

2428
02:58:31,900 --> 02:58:39,000
And again, to my council colleagues, they continue to have no plan, programmatic plan, to handle

2429
02:58:39,000 --> 02:58:41,960
what they wanted to do around violence.

2430
02:58:42,420 --> 02:58:48,020
My council colleagues said to back to the administration, not Councilman Council.

2431
02:58:49,160 --> 02:58:55,280
Issue that they are having, they have to work out as good stewards of a park, which is

2432
02:58:55,280 --> 02:59:01,040
very important for the residents that live in the South Lord, that they should not have

2433
02:59:01,040 --> 02:59:08,260
and 10 with the constant budding of heads with two different organizations that have different

2434
02:59:08,260 --> 02:59:14,820
responsibilities. Now, what Council McGouns who did was to try to bring them together with the

2435
02:59:14,820 --> 02:59:22,080
county to have a conversation around the importance of being good stewards in the park because it

2436
02:59:22,080 --> 02:59:28,760
is important that the week-way park association and the week-way park sports authority know how to

2437
02:59:28,760 --> 02:59:35,800
good citizens in the park for the residents that use the most frequent park in Essex County,

2438
02:59:36,140 --> 02:59:42,420
which is weekway park. And so it is incredibly important that when people go bare,

2439
02:59:42,640 --> 02:59:47,720
they don't have to go and feel a battle that is going on between two organizations,

2440
02:59:48,280 --> 02:59:54,240
but understand what each of their roles and responsibilities are in the work that they do.

2441
02:59:54,240 --> 02:59:59,880
If one serves as a steward of the park, they should focus on stewardship.

2442
03:00:00,000 --> 03:00:08,500
If one serves as a sports authority, they should focus on cancer and clinics and helping young people end the park.

2443
03:00:08,840 --> 03:00:17,580
As for the grant that they submitted, the reason that it was sent back, was because there was no programmatic plan.

2444
03:00:17,580 --> 03:00:23,820
and violence is a serious issue in the city of North and specifically in the South

2445
03:00:23,820 --> 03:00:24,140
War.

2446
03:00:24,760 --> 03:00:31,020
And as an activist in this city that has been fighting against violence for almost over

2447
03:00:31,020 --> 03:00:36,560
30 something years and as a co-founder of the North and to Obama's coalition, I take

2448
03:00:36,560 --> 03:00:43,440
that very serious, not to just vote on giving people money with no plan or programmatic

2449
03:00:43,440 --> 03:00:47,100
move to make sure that something is happening around violence.

2450
03:00:47,100 --> 03:00:50,600
That is the response to that question. Thank you.

2451
03:00:51,260 --> 03:00:53,620
There's a one around tree. Oh, well.

2452
03:00:54,420 --> 03:00:57,100
I did all I wanted to say to Queen for us.

2453
03:00:58,220 --> 03:01:00,620
I'm going to go back to what she was saying about August 12th,

2454
03:01:00,680 --> 03:01:02,520
because I'm going to move forward with you.

2455
03:01:02,580 --> 03:01:04,320
I'm working with those children, the work you've done.

2456
03:01:04,460 --> 03:01:06,160
We've worked together on many fronts.

2457
03:01:06,340 --> 03:01:08,400
There's been some ups and downs and rounding rounds,

2458
03:01:08,760 --> 03:01:13,160
but I'm so proud to see that you are moving forward with a positive attitude,

2459
03:01:13,700 --> 03:01:16,620
making moves in this community, helping our young people.

2460
03:01:16,620 --> 03:01:21,500
Sometimes, where your office space is, is not necessarily an actual office.

2461
03:01:21,940 --> 03:01:26,600
Sometimes, very open, the community is not necessarily in city hall or in the church.

2462
03:01:27,160 --> 03:01:33,800
It's outside, and what you're doing in these establishments, is what you're doing is giving McDonald's a face of doing things for the community.

2463
03:01:33,860 --> 03:01:35,860
You might not have to start out thinking that.

2464
03:01:35,940 --> 03:01:41,940
You might have to imagine where they have to manage and help the management do what they need to do to have a successful business.

2465
03:01:41,940 --> 03:01:47,660
But part of that business, especially when they located in urban areas, is to service that

2466
03:01:47,660 --> 03:01:53,660
present surrounding area, which is true to Nick come in, under the sort of my home to services

2467
03:01:53,660 --> 03:01:54,420
at one time.

2468
03:01:54,720 --> 03:01:58,960
But the difference with you in some of the problem management is that you have access to all

2469
03:01:58,960 --> 03:02:03,320
those services, because at one time you were working with homeless services, and once I'm

2470
03:02:03,320 --> 03:02:04,480
you working to help the problem.

2471
03:02:04,860 --> 03:02:09,600
And whenever one's sideways or backwards or forwards, you now have that experience that

2472
03:02:09,600 --> 03:02:11,720
and those problems come into McDonald's,

2473
03:02:11,800 --> 03:02:14,300
you can assist and call them on the services

2474
03:02:14,300 --> 03:02:15,940
that you have access to.

2475
03:02:16,020 --> 03:02:17,320
So I see you on August 12.

2476
03:02:18,580 --> 03:02:19,440
Thank you, next speaker.

2477
03:02:20,240 --> 03:02:21,720
Sister, I see her bay.

2478
03:02:25,740 --> 03:02:26,460
I'm not a prairie.

2479
03:02:27,960 --> 03:02:29,020
Yes, she's here.

2480
03:02:29,020 --> 03:02:29,440
She's here?

2481
03:02:29,480 --> 03:02:30,420
Yes, she's here.

2482
03:02:30,420 --> 03:02:31,100
Oh, yeah,

2483
03:02:33,450 --> 03:02:33,830
she's here.

2484
03:02:34,430 --> 03:02:35,790
Yes, she's in right there.

2485
03:02:37,330 --> 03:02:38,550
Send up and get to the mic.

2486
03:02:49,540 --> 03:02:50,980
Okay, don't start no time.

2487
03:02:51,200 --> 03:02:52,300
She didn't even go out.

2488
03:02:52,700 --> 03:02:56,300
I can't see, can y'all hear me now? Y'all can hear me?

2489
03:02:56,920 --> 03:02:57,120
Yeah.

2490
03:02:57,120 --> 03:02:57,620
Thank you.

2491
03:02:58,420 --> 03:02:58,700
Where?

2492
03:02:59,400 --> 03:03:01,740
Yes, I need reading, but I'll see.

2493
03:03:01,880 --> 03:03:03,420
I'm about to welcome to that, man.

2494
03:03:04,280 --> 03:03:05,080
Okay, cool being.

2495
03:03:05,520 --> 03:03:08,200
But those of you who do not know me, I'm quite just to see you back.

2496
03:03:09,540 --> 03:03:09,760
All right.

2497
03:03:09,860 --> 03:03:11,960
I'm the co-founder of the White Terror,

2498
03:03:12,000 --> 03:03:13,460
Clayton Place, Western Union Power.

2499
03:03:14,160 --> 03:03:15,380
Power to the people.

2500
03:03:15,620 --> 03:03:17,820
Civic Association, but I am here today.

2501
03:03:18,700 --> 03:03:21,360
Even though I first don't want to thank all of you for being here,

2502
03:03:21,360 --> 03:03:24,080
because I know your job is an easy, this is hard for me to see,

2503
03:03:24,140 --> 03:03:25,360
looking at you all when I'm not reading.

2504
03:03:26,800 --> 03:03:30,480
However, I wanted to really deal with my council person

2505
03:03:30,480 --> 03:03:32,700
at council, but I'm a table that's another meeting

2506
03:03:32,700 --> 03:03:35,760
because I got more important stuff to deal with right now.

2507
03:03:35,760 --> 03:03:37,380
I want you to know that I love you.

2508
03:03:37,720 --> 03:03:39,460
And I want to sit down with you and some grass

2509
03:03:39,460 --> 03:03:41,420
through an individual so we can do what we got to do

2510
03:03:41,420 --> 03:03:43,240
better than what we did in the last four years.

2511
03:03:43,560 --> 03:03:46,540
I have not seen you on one meeting with none of the residents

2512
03:03:47,260 --> 03:03:50,240
in Newark, for whatever reason, one of the district leaders

2513
03:03:50,240 --> 03:03:55,820
it costs a lot of money to meet. Well, I don't give a rat sass. The bottom line is, this is our

2514
03:03:55,820 --> 03:03:59,900
place too. So if we don't have a building out there, we can come up in here in the middle of

2515
03:03:59,900 --> 03:04:05,900
tundiff, once a month or either once every three months and do what we need to do because I know

2516
03:04:05,900 --> 03:04:12,740
you need help and I need your help too. All right. Now, the reason I'm here is because girl, let me see if

2517
03:04:12,740 --> 03:04:15,240
I'm going to read this.

2518
03:04:18,240 --> 03:04:23,420
The reason I'm here today is on behalf of a requesting.

2519
03:04:25,240 --> 03:04:27,660
I've got to put it really, really close.

2520
03:04:29,280 --> 03:04:32,140
I'm requesting a resolution,

2521
03:04:32,620 --> 03:04:36,060
because for a booster support invitation

2522
03:04:36,060 --> 03:04:49,060
for the Arts High School Class of 1976 in 10-year-old, 50th of reunion, I am one of the graduates

2523
03:04:49,060 --> 03:04:58,400
from 1976 and from 1972 to 1976 we were there for four years and now it's 50 years

2524
03:04:58,400 --> 03:05:00,000
this year so y'all can all give me a...

2525
03:05:00,980 --> 03:05:30,800
Good evening, I'm glad. I'm here but I'm still living today. And can get with our classmate and celebrate. So since it's a see my centennial year, I just wanted you all to know that I'm here to be classed to resolution from you and I hope you won't have any issues and given it. I know I am going to send it to you by email. I only have one copy. So I'll probably just give it to y'all tomorrow, but y'all to get with me. No, I don't have it. Oh, you want me to try your glasses

2526
03:05:30,800 --> 03:05:37,120
lady brother. Okay cool thing. Who else got some glasses? Okay cool. This is really good. This

2527
03:05:37,120 --> 03:05:43,860
is better than what I had. This is what I want to share with you guys if I make. First of all,

2528
03:05:44,140 --> 03:05:51,900
I need to say in like 30 seconds. Gerald Holloway, you all may or may not know him, but for 40 years,

2529
03:05:52,060 --> 03:05:58,240
he has been the founder of FEV, which is fashion entertainment board, House Out of S. County College,

2530
03:05:59,540 --> 03:06:01,640
for 38 years before he retired.

2531
03:06:02,980 --> 03:06:04,300
He, the rest of my spoke to him,

2532
03:06:06,200 --> 03:06:07,420
he was in Clare Mass Hospital,

2533
03:06:07,660 --> 03:06:10,040
when he hopes to be out by this Saturday,

2534
03:06:10,160 --> 03:06:13,240
because he's having his 40th

2535
03:06:14,240 --> 03:06:16,300
bachelor show, is a celebration for him.

2536
03:06:16,960 --> 03:06:19,600
And one of his first of all, five people had passed

2537
03:06:19,600 --> 03:06:20,960
and four of the funnels I went to,

2538
03:06:21,080 --> 03:06:22,800
so my spirit is kind of low and I apologize,

2539
03:06:23,260 --> 03:06:24,460
but I dropped the ball with him,

2540
03:06:24,480 --> 03:06:26,600
because I was supposed to get in touch with

2541
03:06:26,600 --> 03:06:31,120
around shrink, honorable, around shrink, so that she can do the resolution for him.

2542
03:06:32,440 --> 03:06:35,040
But whether he gets it by that date or not, it doesn't matter.

2543
03:06:35,060 --> 03:06:38,640
I know that you guys are going to make sure that fashion is attainable.

2544
03:06:38,800 --> 03:06:39,460
You got him.

2545
03:06:39,820 --> 03:06:39,900
All right.

2546
03:06:39,960 --> 03:06:40,960
Thank you so very much.

2547
03:06:41,240 --> 03:06:43,820
Now, let's get back to the, what's really important right now.

2548
03:06:43,860 --> 03:06:46,060
That is, our tie.

2549
03:06:46,580 --> 03:06:53,680
I'm requesting that, maybe you may not even know, that our tie holds a reverent place in the history

2550
03:06:53,680 --> 03:06:55,540
of the first public high school.

2551
03:06:55,540 --> 03:07:05,280
Located in central for dedicated to the visual and the performing arts, right, in the United States, did you all hear what I said?

2552
03:07:05,600 --> 03:07:16,640
The first, and it was established in 1931 as a pioneering model for creative education, academic, rigor, and civic leadership.

2553
03:07:16,640 --> 03:07:23,740
There's so much that I can say about them, but if with your permission, I'm going to submit it to Paul and y'all by email. Is that okay? Is that agree?

2554
03:07:24,240 --> 03:07:32,520
All right, last thing I want to say, notably, that I've found over 40 to 50 people that graduated from artime.

2555
03:07:32,720 --> 03:07:42,680
Even the mayor's mother went to artime. Her class was 1961. She was there for three years prior to leaving and getting married.

2556
03:07:42,680 --> 03:07:44,580
that's a business but she told me that's weak.

2557
03:07:44,900 --> 03:07:48,000
Anywho, she is being considered as our keynote speaker

2558
03:07:48,000 --> 03:07:51,180
on September, this at Liberty House.

2559
03:07:51,340 --> 03:07:53,280
You know, all of them, but more importantly,

2560
03:07:53,420 --> 03:07:54,360
I need some doubt.

2561
03:07:54,680 --> 03:07:57,140
I need some money because we are doing

2562
03:07:58,720 --> 03:07:59,760
a digital,

2563
03:08:01,680 --> 03:08:02,720
commemorial journal.

2564
03:08:02,960 --> 03:08:04,280
It's not a souvenir journal,

2565
03:08:04,620 --> 03:08:06,660
this is one where a person can come,

2566
03:08:06,880 --> 03:08:10,140
get the QR code and I'm listening to you

2567
03:08:10,560 --> 03:08:12,240
and we're gonna have a conversation.

2568
03:08:12,240 --> 03:08:14,120
It's only a hundred dollars, okay?

2569
03:08:14,580 --> 03:08:14,620
Please.

2570
03:08:14,940 --> 03:08:16,460
Thank you.

2571
03:08:16,500 --> 03:08:17,060
Nice speaker.

2572
03:08:17,780 --> 03:08:19,200
Use F-H-Bass.

2573
03:08:19,980 --> 03:08:20,440
Appearing?

2574
03:08:46,120 --> 03:08:46,900
Thank you.

2575
03:09:07,800 --> 03:09:09,000
I know what Jesus is.

2576
03:09:42,270 --> 03:09:43,710
But President just said that.

2577
03:09:59,460 --> 03:09:59,960
Oh, Mr. Shabbat.

2578
03:10:00,000 --> 03:10:21,080
Thank you. All right. Thank you. Good afternoon. Council members. I'm here to address the issue with my names. You said she's bad. I'm a district leader and a westward, the 40th district, but I'd be following my issue. I ran into a constituent with that need help from the committee. Name is a nine blocker.

2579
03:10:21,820 --> 03:10:26,740
If you would like to address it, if she would call the force and that's affecting her restaurant,

2580
03:10:27,180 --> 03:10:28,680
she needs your help to get re-opened.

2581
03:10:28,940 --> 03:10:32,580
And if she needs your help to get re-opened, but I would like to say before I give it a mic,

2582
03:10:32,820 --> 03:10:35,480
that if any document is come from the city of New York,

2583
03:10:35,680 --> 03:10:38,880
that she's come from a letterhead, instead of a piece of paper, you know,

2584
03:10:39,020 --> 03:10:39,900
given it to the people.

2585
03:10:40,240 --> 03:10:43,760
Like a fishy document signed by the department head of the department,

2586
03:10:44,140 --> 03:10:45,620
or where it's come from, or the mayor.

2587
03:10:46,920 --> 03:10:47,400
No.

2588
03:10:50,280 --> 03:10:50,500
No.

2589
03:10:52,000 --> 03:10:52,320
No.

2590
03:10:52,620 --> 03:10:53,940
I can speak to no.

2591
03:10:54,480 --> 03:10:55,920
First, it has to be on the list.

2592
03:10:56,000 --> 03:10:56,680
Oh, no problem.

2593
03:10:56,920 --> 03:10:57,220
Okay.

2594
03:10:57,500 --> 03:10:57,740
Sorry.

2595
03:10:58,480 --> 03:10:59,120
Excuse me.

2596
03:10:59,360 --> 03:11:00,500
Council president.

2597
03:11:00,780 --> 03:11:01,580
Council president.

2598
03:11:01,960 --> 03:11:02,120
Yes.

2599
03:11:02,180 --> 03:11:03,140
In terms of mic.

2600
03:11:03,280 --> 03:11:04,080
Council president.

2601
03:11:04,320 --> 03:11:07,700
I must correct the statement made yesterday we got in beyond so.

2602
03:11:07,940 --> 03:11:09,720
The claim that beyond so do not have.

2603
03:11:10,360 --> 03:11:11,580
And you speak in terms of mic?

2604
03:11:11,580 --> 03:11:12,540
No, hold on.

2605
03:11:12,540 --> 03:11:13,680
I don't hold it.

2606
03:11:13,980 --> 03:11:14,440
I dare.

2607
03:11:14,440 --> 03:11:15,060
And become Hillary this weekend.

2608
03:11:16,520 --> 03:11:17,780
Do you mean by his time one day?

2609
03:11:17,920 --> 03:11:18,340
South Tom.

2610
03:11:18,340 --> 03:11:18,520
Up the time many more.

2611
03:11:18,520 --> 03:11:19,800
Our time all right?

2612
03:11:20,040 --> 03:11:20,480
Back up.

2613
03:11:20,480 --> 03:11:20,560
My God.

2614
03:11:20,720 --> 03:11:20,940
Okay.

2615
03:11:20,940 --> 03:11:22,060
I'm so proud of it.

2616
03:11:22,060 --> 03:11:24,060
I must correct this statement, made yesterday

2617
03:11:24,060 --> 03:11:25,880
regarding beyond sole.

2618
03:11:26,180 --> 03:11:26,540
ちょっと.

2619
03:11:26,540 --> 03:11:33,520
that beyond so does not have and has never had a business license is simply not factual.

2620
03:11:34,020 --> 03:11:37,480
Beyond so has held a valid license since its inception.

2621
03:11:37,980 --> 03:11:43,120
The business originally operated on J-3 before relocating to Bellville Township with

2622
03:11:43,120 --> 03:11:46,420
operated out of a cloud, out of a cloud kitchen facility.

2623
03:11:47,260 --> 03:11:54,300
The Bellville business license remained active through January, 2026 when beyond so was forced

2624
03:11:54,300 --> 03:11:59,880
to win down operations at that location due to site specific issues.

2625
03:12:00,400 --> 03:12:05,300
Following the transition, we also enter into a partnership agreement with the owner of Clinton

2626
03:12:05,300 --> 03:12:08,380
Food Bar, serving as a managing agent.

2627
03:12:08,940 --> 03:12:13,980
And this role as a manager, we also oversee the operations of the restaurant under Clinton

2628
03:12:13,980 --> 03:12:16,100
Food Bar, existing establishment.

2629
03:12:16,100 --> 03:12:25,580
There is partnership paperwork signed by the owner and myself to prove, to prove these claims,

2630
03:12:26,960 --> 03:12:34,780
to clarify the legal structure, clean food bars, legally entry legally, entity name is

2631
03:12:34,780 --> 03:12:42,140
Ali's Delhi, Bar and Grill, LLC, public records show that a Naya blocker is a registered

2632
03:12:42,140 --> 03:12:45,120
manager for Ali's Delhi trade name, Clinton Bar.

2633
03:12:45,120 --> 03:12:54,100
Therefore, the reason that the business license never existed, or that the operation was unauthorized, is incomplete and inaccurate.

2634
03:12:54,820 --> 03:13:00,940
The next statement we're going to permit of each back and food handling concern is entirely false as well.

2635
03:13:01,160 --> 03:13:06,360
As evidenced by photos and videos, the unit in question is simply standard.

2636
03:13:06,800 --> 03:13:09,920
Standard loan, standard loan, portable AC unit.

2637
03:13:09,920 --> 03:13:18,480
It requires zero electrical modifications, zero installation, and no structure work whatsoever.

2638
03:13:19,020 --> 03:13:24,680
Meaning, no permitted specialized, no permit or specialized license is required by law.

2639
03:13:25,120 --> 03:13:27,800
No unpromitted age-back work took place.

2640
03:13:28,540 --> 03:13:31,080
Regarding the allegation of improper food handling,

2641
03:13:31,460 --> 03:13:36,840
cold enforcement did bring in health inspectors to conduct an evaluation, however,

2642
03:13:36,840 --> 03:13:40,820
do to find no improper food homes were made.

2643
03:13:41,440 --> 03:13:45,920
However, no finding of improper food homes were made.

2644
03:13:46,360 --> 03:13:48,800
In fact, following the inspection on July 1st,

2645
03:13:49,220 --> 03:13:53,740
we were fully cleared by any violations by the health department.

2646
03:13:57,630 --> 03:14:02,550
And officially, we opened on for business on July 2nd.

2647
03:14:03,290 --> 03:14:06,950
This is a public knowledge and can be looked up as well.

2648
03:14:06,950 --> 03:14:12,670
also to clarify the only outstanding permit is you can buy a minor plumbing work.

2649
03:14:12,970 --> 03:14:18,610
I have instead of receiving a formal official notice on the city letter head, detailed in

2650
03:14:18,610 --> 03:14:24,190
these requirements, we were merely handed a handwritten note on playing paper.

2651
03:14:24,790 --> 03:14:29,530
More critically, more critically, the city has physically packed and locked out doors for

2652
03:14:29,530 --> 03:14:36,810
us from resolving these issues. Every time a licensed contract arrived on a site, we must

2653
03:14:36,810 --> 03:14:44,450
call the wait for a cold enforcement officer to come and lock the building. Just yesterday,

2654
03:14:44,930 --> 03:14:51,910
our plumber waited on a site for an officer to be admitted. It slipped their mind to come

2655
03:14:51,910 --> 03:14:58,010
and open the door. We were actively trying to comply, but the city employees neglecting

2656
03:14:58,010 --> 03:14:59,950
Next leg is, it's physically blocked.

2657
03:15:00,000 --> 03:15:08,080
We are doing what we are supposed to do. I can be a issue. Thank you, sir. All time is up. Thank you.

2658
03:15:08,420 --> 03:15:10,060
Is not.

2659
03:15:14,090 --> 03:15:20,550
Not tearing you down and creating false narratives. I'm going to protect themselves. If the goal.

2660
03:15:21,010 --> 03:15:31,310
I'm going to stop. Thank you. No, no, but can you. When we get somebody to unstaff to Anthony. Anthony.

2661
03:15:31,310 --> 03:15:34,910
Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you.

2662
03:15:35,410 --> 03:15:36,470
Thank you.

2663
03:15:37,270 --> 03:15:39,030
Claire, are Hazel?

2664
03:15:40,050 --> 03:15:40,650
We are.

2665
03:15:52,900 --> 03:15:54,600
Then something's good afternoon.

2666
03:15:56,680 --> 03:15:58,140
My name is Claire, are Hazel.

2667
03:15:59,180 --> 03:16:01,140
I'm just here for the first time.

2668
03:16:01,440 --> 03:16:06,500
I've been in North 68 years and I'm trying to keep North safe.

2669
03:16:07,480 --> 03:16:10,780
My problem is we have electrical pole

2670
03:16:11,700 --> 03:16:30,240
And the Northward, that public service was notified about it and it come, we have to walk through this area, where this electrical pole is leaning all the way over and they got it leaning on a tree.

2671
03:16:30,960 --> 03:16:39,680
I call public service, they came out and put, do not disturb around the pole.

2672
03:16:40,660 --> 03:16:43,680
Are you going to not disturb it if you got to work by it?

2673
03:16:43,980 --> 03:16:49,120
It's unsafe, and then it got all this garbage that the city could do better.

2674
03:16:50,160 --> 03:16:57,940
They got all this garbage where the service comes from the train, the trains on Franklin Street,

2675
03:16:59,020 --> 03:17:01,720
And the Northward is terrible.

2676
03:17:02,720 --> 03:17:03,740
There's garbage deer.

2677
03:17:03,900 --> 03:17:05,740
They don't clean it.

2678
03:17:06,660 --> 03:17:11,320
The service has to be enough to put a red sticker around that phone.

2679
03:17:11,640 --> 03:17:12,600
It's unsafe.

2680
03:17:13,160 --> 03:17:14,460
I don't feel safe.

2681
03:17:15,000 --> 03:17:20,200
And there's a little agreement that come over to you and we'll walk us and can't unsafe.

2682
03:17:20,760 --> 03:17:21,720
The poll is here.

2683
03:17:21,780 --> 03:17:24,660
I had a picture of it, but I can't show it to them.

2684
03:17:24,660 --> 03:17:28,460
I will get a picture to you, the law for a councilman.

2685
03:17:28,920 --> 03:17:32,440
I will get a picture to you, but can you do something about it?

2686
03:17:32,660 --> 03:17:33,320
We're public service.

2687
03:17:33,880 --> 03:17:36,060
They're just ignoring me.

2688
03:17:36,520 --> 03:17:39,340
And I know that I taught loud, because I don't hear good.

2689
03:17:39,900 --> 03:17:42,420
But if you can't do something about that,

2690
03:17:42,540 --> 03:17:45,200
before something happens to the people over there.

2691
03:17:47,160 --> 03:17:51,360
And another thing I would like to just put a little

2692
03:17:51,360 --> 03:17:53,520
note on, how many minutes I have, sir?

2693
03:17:56,220 --> 03:17:57,220
I can't see that part.

2694
03:17:57,220 --> 03:17:59,300
How many minutes do I have, sir?

2695
03:18:00,000 --> 03:18:00,180
Two.

2696
03:18:00,280 --> 03:18:00,820
Thank you.

2697
03:18:01,260 --> 03:18:05,460
I just want to make an omission that the merchants that they allow it to come into

2698
03:18:05,460 --> 03:18:11,640
North to do unsafe things, break the law, and they go back to where they live.

2699
03:18:12,980 --> 03:18:14,400
I just don't understand that.

2700
03:18:15,000 --> 03:18:19,160
I'm dealing with a merchant now that they live in North, and he's been over the end of

2701
03:18:19,160 --> 03:18:19,880
West sport.

2702
03:18:20,860 --> 03:18:23,060
But 22 years, I went and checked.

2703
03:18:23,060 --> 03:18:26,560
He has 21 violation with a better business bureau.

2704
03:18:27,240 --> 03:18:30,880
He's selling bad cars and I'm going to pick it to place.

2705
03:18:31,120 --> 03:18:33,240
I want to know can I do that?

2706
03:18:35,990 --> 03:18:37,770
I'm talking to you, no board, Councilman.

2707
03:18:42,020 --> 03:18:43,240
Oh, you can't give me an answer now.

2708
03:18:43,920 --> 03:18:46,320
Well, in the meantime, I'll be at the next meeting.

2709
03:18:46,580 --> 03:18:47,920
Hopefully, something will be done.

2710
03:18:48,060 --> 03:18:48,920
Thank you so much.

2711
03:18:51,320 --> 03:18:52,100
Now's a grand motion.

2712
03:18:53,220 --> 03:18:57,160
Mr. President, with the situation with the poll,

2713
03:18:58,660 --> 03:19:05,960
We're talking right by 900 Franklin, so if we can send correspondence to our contact,

2714
03:19:06,160 --> 03:19:11,700
their APC and GM, Mr. Gary Williams, to address a situation with the poll.

2715
03:19:12,120 --> 03:19:18,980
And then also to New Jersey transit, which is responsible for the city subway that's right

2716
03:19:18,980 --> 03:19:24,180
by there that we complain about all the time about garbage and other things.

2717
03:19:25,160 --> 03:19:37,020
And then we should refer the resident to State Department of Consumer Affairs if she was a victim of some kind of fraud with the purchase of her vehicle.

2718
03:19:37,780 --> 03:19:42,280
They should assign someone to a sister with this dealership in North.

2719
03:19:49,630 --> 03:19:54,370
Councilman Ramos, as you indicated, maybe a sense of course,

2720
03:19:54,630 --> 03:19:55,530
on us.

2721
03:19:55,530 --> 03:19:57,350
Yes, thank you.

2722
03:19:57,470 --> 03:19:58,410
Carmella Bowers?

2723
03:20:00,820 --> 03:20:01,580
My

2724
03:20:09,130 --> 03:20:34,230
name is Carmella Bowers. I was resident of Newark. I was born and raised the 86 years ago. I almost 87. I taught school here. I gave back to the community. So I'm here to find out if somebody can get back with me. I'm a senior in the senior building.

2725
03:20:34,230 --> 03:20:42,130
and I was going to the daycare. Every time I go and meet people and have a little

2726
03:20:42,130 --> 03:20:49,310
bit of fun, I go home when I come back to tell me I can't come because I don't have

2727
03:20:49,310 --> 03:21:04,090
Medicaid. I think that's unfair. Because I worked in North, I was a teacher, I worked in

2728
03:21:04,830 --> 03:21:13,490
And I worked, and my taxes is paying for the people who's getting Medicaid.

2729
03:21:15,270 --> 03:21:16,930
How come I can get Medicaid?

2730
03:21:17,150 --> 03:21:26,650
How come I can't get on the daycare for seniors just because I'm on Medicaid?

2731
03:21:28,110 --> 03:21:28,430
Why?

2732
03:21:28,630 --> 03:21:29,610
Because I worked.

2733
03:21:30,370 --> 03:21:32,190
Yes, because I was taught the work.

2734
03:21:32,190 --> 03:21:39,470
from my family and I'm proud that I worked. I couldn't work at first. I was

2735
03:21:39,470 --> 03:21:48,490
getting well-fanned. I went to school, I graduated, I got a job teaching in

2736
03:21:48,490 --> 03:21:54,210
Newark, teaching their children, how to read. I became the resource teacher.

2737
03:22:03,530 --> 03:22:04,250
I

2738
03:22:04,250 --> 03:22:06,270
play together when we were kids.

2739
03:22:08,440 --> 03:22:09,080
It's bad.

2740
03:22:09,080 --> 03:22:12,640
Guys, Barack is mother and I used to play together when we were kids.

2741
03:22:14,920 --> 03:22:17,960
I went to Alabama to raise two of my grandchildren.

2742
03:22:19,040 --> 03:22:21,540
At the end, I came back.

2743
03:22:22,020 --> 03:22:25,980
My grandchildren here said, Grandma, we want you back

2744
03:22:25,980 --> 03:22:30,480
because you get an old and you need to be close so we can get to you.

2745
03:22:30,900 --> 03:22:31,960
So I'm back.

2746
03:22:32,340 --> 03:22:36,800
I said, I'll come back if I could live downtown in New York.

2747
03:22:36,800 --> 03:22:39,420
That's where I want to live.

2748
03:22:40,100 --> 03:22:42,900
I moved in 1180 Raymond Boulevard.

2749
03:22:43,940 --> 03:22:46,640
They restored their $1,500 a month.

2750
03:22:46,920 --> 03:22:47,900
I was paying it.

2751
03:22:48,080 --> 03:22:49,180
And I loved it, dear.

2752
03:22:49,860 --> 03:22:52,760
But every year they went up on me $200.

2753
03:22:54,540 --> 03:22:57,380
That was not supposed to be.

2754
03:22:57,520 --> 03:23:01,040
Because when I was younger and lived in North,

2755
03:23:01,040 --> 03:23:10,240
Mayor Gibson said you can't go up but three percent every year so I said I'm going to

2756
03:23:10,240 --> 03:23:19,480
city hall and talk to somebody because I think somebody could help. I came here and they helped me.

2757
03:23:19,980 --> 03:23:26,400
Now I want to go to the daycare because I get tired sitting in the house doing nothing.

2758
03:23:26,400 --> 03:23:33,400
I'm getting old. When I came here I was moving. Since I've been here, I got this cane.

2759
03:23:35,700 --> 03:23:41,580
I turned around, I'm sick. I got a move. I can't sit still.

2760
03:23:42,800 --> 03:23:45,860
Let me go to date here with my Medicare.

2761
03:23:48,520 --> 03:23:53,580
They charge you. They tell you. They count your gross.

2762
03:23:54,260 --> 03:23:58,220
But I don't get my gross, I got a pay grant which is high.

2763
03:23:59,160 --> 03:24:01,920
I got about four, which is high.

2764
03:24:04,030 --> 03:24:08,130
I got a pay like you bill which is high.

2765
03:24:08,670 --> 03:24:10,730
I pay them out for my own money.

2766
03:24:11,750 --> 03:24:14,670
Medicare and medical insurance.

2767
03:24:14,990 --> 03:24:15,450
Why?

2768
03:24:15,830 --> 03:24:20,750
Because I had to retire at 22 and a half years.

2769
03:24:20,750 --> 03:24:34,430
That twenty-five, twenty-two and a half, to take care of two of my grandchildren, because my baby daughter was on drugs, and I was not letting him go in no forced home.

2770
03:24:35,370 --> 03:24:40,930
So I raised my grandkids, and Alabama, because I didn't want to raise him here.

2771
03:24:41,130 --> 03:24:47,610
I figured my grandson was to, you know, he just go and do anything with anybody to teach him.

2772
03:24:47,610 --> 03:24:50,910
Do the follow-up, so I took him away.

2773
03:24:51,990 --> 03:24:53,690
Now he has his own family.

2774
03:24:54,470 --> 03:24:55,230
He's doing good.

2775
03:24:55,650 --> 03:24:57,410
My granddaughter has her family.

2776
03:24:57,650 --> 03:24:59,150
She's doing good now and by myself.

2777
03:25:00,910 --> 03:25:13,030
I need to go to date 10 and they tell me the people in the old people in the senior bills, you can't do nothing about that, because the government says.

2778
03:25:13,030 --> 03:25:16,290
Thank you. Thank you so much council. We're in bay and I'm sorry.

2779
03:25:16,290 --> 03:25:18,170
You should ask where we see it from senior service.

2780
03:25:18,310 --> 03:25:19,550
You want? No, not in my mind.

2781
03:25:20,090 --> 03:25:20,250
Yes.

2782
03:25:20,610 --> 03:25:20,830
Yes.

2783
03:25:21,590 --> 03:25:22,950
Oh, they consist of the Carmella.

2784
03:25:24,410 --> 03:25:30,030
We already spoke and our team members have already spoken with Ms. Carmella.

2785
03:25:30,030 --> 03:25:37,590
we're going to make sure that she gets through the daycare. Okay? And thank you. Thank you.

2786
03:25:38,250 --> 03:25:43,710
All right. Thank you. Thank you, Councillor. Next speaker, Walter Jacobs.

2787
03:25:44,010 --> 03:25:45,570
Appearing? Everyone's meeting.

2788
03:25:55,930 --> 03:26:01,970
My name is Walter Jacobs, I'm the president of Quartz, I was attending. Hello, hello.

2789
03:26:02,290 --> 03:26:05,550
I'm the president of Quartz Street Tenet Council.

2790
03:26:05,550 --> 03:26:06,370
We

2791
03:26:08,990 --> 03:26:24,170
are trying to help Mrs. Carmella, you know, I know when she was a little girl, you know, so I'm kind of old myself, but I want to graduate everybody who was reelected.

2792
03:26:24,890 --> 03:26:28,230
That's what's important here for me, I want to talk about the real lecture.

2793
03:26:28,710 --> 03:26:32,770
I don't know why people come in here and call you criminals and things like that nature.

2794
03:26:35,580 --> 03:26:36,220
Hello again.

2795
03:26:37,260 --> 03:26:43,820
Okay, but I appreciate you and the people of North appreciate you because you elected again

2796
03:26:45,180 --> 03:26:51,100
Oh, she's not, she's not up there, but I just want to say congratulations on the mayor,

2797
03:26:51,440 --> 03:26:56,900
it's so much she's keeping the city going last the last four years. You kept the lights on in the city.

2798
03:26:57,120 --> 03:27:01,200
Okay, you imagine what you're going to do these four years coming up, it's going to be a long

2799
03:27:01,200 --> 03:27:07,300
in North. North is a beautiful city, just like Ms. Carmel said, she loves North. I love North.

2800
03:27:07,540 --> 03:27:14,140
We want to see North go forward, we see people coming in, we try to keep things stable for the

2801
03:27:14,140 --> 03:27:22,520
scenes I'm a senior. I'm frightened myself. They made raise my rent twice a year. So I just want to say,

2802
03:27:22,640 --> 03:27:28,180
thank you for all the work you have done. I want to also thank Milly. It was a campaign manager for

2803
03:27:28,180 --> 03:27:36,140
people. He did a great job. Look at that. And then I want to say hello to the chairman of

2804
03:27:36,140 --> 03:27:43,520
the Central Ward of what's the state space, the ship space. And I just want to say thank you again.

2805
03:27:45,900 --> 03:27:46,760
Well, you're a service.

2806
03:27:48,280 --> 03:27:49,360
Tomorrow, young blood.

2807
03:27:50,140 --> 03:27:50,180
Very,

2808
03:27:54,420 --> 03:27:55,460
a young blood.

2809
03:27:58,280 --> 03:28:03,740
So in March of 2025, I presented an ordinance and a resolution to our council members.

2810
03:28:03,740 --> 03:28:07,200
The first is the full transparency ordinance.

2811
03:28:07,960 --> 03:28:08,480
It's purpose.

2812
03:28:09,040 --> 03:28:11,940
It's to give no residents a public real-time system

2813
03:28:11,940 --> 03:28:15,500
that shows exactly how our public money is being spent.

2814
03:28:15,920 --> 03:28:19,760
And the second is the public decision or resolution.

2815
03:28:20,760 --> 03:28:23,680
It's purpose is to ensure that city council decisions

2816
03:28:23,680 --> 03:28:24,780
are informed.

2817
03:28:27,170 --> 03:28:29,650
That's okay.

2818
03:28:30,070 --> 03:28:34,310
It's purpose is to give no residents a real public real-time system

2819
03:28:34,310 --> 03:28:38,290
that shows exactly how public money has been spent, and the second is the public decision

2820
03:28:38,290 --> 03:28:39,090
resolution.

2821
03:28:39,910 --> 03:28:50,210
The second resolution, the purpose is to ensure that city council decisions are informed

2822
03:28:50,210 --> 03:28:55,810
by public input through official poll surveys and other community engagement methods.

2823
03:28:56,750 --> 03:29:02,150
There are already proven models for transparent government spending and using technology

2824
03:29:02,150 --> 03:29:05,670
to strengthen public participation in government.

2825
03:29:06,530 --> 03:29:11,670
New York City is considered the gold standard with their checkbook and WRC platform that allows

2826
03:29:11,670 --> 03:29:17,790
residents to search government payments, contracts, payroll, information, revenue and much

2827
03:29:17,790 --> 03:29:18,450
more.

2828
03:29:18,590 --> 03:29:24,250
And Taipei, they created a platform called VTaiwan, which allows residents to participate

2829
03:29:24,250 --> 03:29:29,410
in policy discussions and help shape government decisions before they are made.

2830
03:29:29,410 --> 03:29:36,430
I truly believe these two pieces of legislation are most important, reform and our city right now,

2831
03:29:36,590 --> 03:29:42,390
because too many residents do not trust that our government is making decisions in the best interests of residents.

2832
03:29:43,290 --> 03:29:48,470
They're simply too much, he says, she said, happening in our city, and I'm not comfortable with that,

2833
03:29:48,490 --> 03:29:54,030
because it creates factions, if you use division, and it makes it harder for residents to know what to trust.

2834
03:29:54,030 --> 03:29:59,950
The example that's the most recent example is right now.

2835
03:30:00,000 --> 03:30:05,660
Businesses are currently online to be in whether Councilman Jackson or a deputy mayor is telling a truth.

2836
03:30:06,260 --> 03:30:16,460
And for me, that's just unbelievable that we're in 2026 and residents don't have one central place to find reliable information and data about what's happening in our city.

2837
03:30:17,120 --> 03:30:19,080
So again, I have these two legislations.

2838
03:30:19,900 --> 03:30:28,140
They're designed to replace speculation with facts by giving residents direct access to information in a strong voice and decision-making.

2839
03:30:28,140 --> 03:30:34,660
and the decision making process, I already provided copies to most of you, so I just came here today

2840
03:30:34,660 --> 03:30:41,060
to give a copy to Ms. Jackson and Ms. Bay. That's all. Thank you. Thank you. I'm Clark,

2841
03:30:41,700 --> 03:30:49,120
we do the time as possible that we can close a meeting because we will be here if we are going to

2842
03:30:49,120 --> 03:30:57,000
do every motion. So if we, my colleagues, if we can just add the motions today and close a meeting

2843
03:30:57,000 --> 03:31:00,000
and then start getting in the budget ready?

2844
03:31:01,120 --> 03:31:02,000
Yes, sir.

2845
03:31:02,460 --> 03:31:02,760
Yes, sir.

2846
03:31:02,840 --> 03:31:11,160
Can all the motions can be done by Council to you, by tomorrow, or their motions, or any

2847
03:31:11,160 --> 03:31:12,500
a suggestion they have?

2848
03:31:12,780 --> 03:31:17,760
I said, we indicated before that, from now on, on a Tuesday, when people have appetizers,

2849
03:31:18,500 --> 03:31:21,240
there will be a camera that will set up upstairs.

2850
03:31:21,800 --> 03:31:26,980
Following the meeting, those appetizers of council members will have an appetizer,

2851
03:31:26,980 --> 03:31:33,920
or say an event, some kind of event that they are hosting or whatever, that Tuesday they will

2852
03:31:33,920 --> 03:31:40,280
go upstairs to the conference room and record after the council meeting it will be in play.

2853
03:31:41,740 --> 03:31:42,870
Right? Yes. Thank you.

2854
03:31:44,660 --> 03:31:46,510
On administration? Yeah, okay.

2855
03:31:47,460 --> 03:31:49,320
And then thank you. All right.

2856
03:31:50,720 --> 03:31:52,980
I mean, the budget, the budget, the budget people waiting.

2857
03:31:54,140 --> 03:31:56,640
This will be short, Eric Huntington, Business Minister.

2858
03:31:56,880 --> 03:31:59,600
We just want to respond to a couple of things quickly.

2859
03:32:00,600 --> 03:32:02,980
I know that there was a sort of a concern

2860
03:32:02,980 --> 03:32:05,180
that funds were being diverted from the S.Y.E.P.

2861
03:32:05,180 --> 03:32:06,580
to some of youth employment programs.

2862
03:32:06,760 --> 03:32:09,940
I think I age a Hemingway is here to just to spell that notion.

2863
03:32:10,200 --> 03:32:11,880
But while she, if she's still here and gets together,

2864
03:32:12,320 --> 03:32:15,680
I just want to respond briefly to the comments about beyond soul.

2865
03:32:16,080 --> 03:32:18,040
I wanted to be very respectful of the business

2866
03:32:18,040 --> 03:32:21,780
and not bring more attention to what the problems are

2867
03:32:21,780 --> 03:32:27,540
than is necessary, but given the call of we from the gentleman who spoke on her behalf, Mr.

2868
03:32:27,720 --> 03:32:33,540
Shabbaz, I'm prepared to submit pictures to the City Council for the official record

2869
03:32:33,540 --> 03:32:36,920
that the public can see if they want to, of the deplorable conditions that were found

2870
03:32:36,920 --> 03:32:38,440
when quote enforcement went there.

2871
03:32:38,740 --> 03:32:43,160
I'd rather not do that, but if they want to come continue to give misinformation, I will

2872
03:32:43,160 --> 03:32:44,360
respond in kind.

2873
03:32:44,360 --> 03:32:52,580
I also will ask for if there are the appropriate business license, payroll support, all the

2874
03:32:52,580 --> 03:32:56,520
appropriate certificates if they are brought to me, the business administrator who's

2875
03:32:56,520 --> 03:32:59,040
responsible for the administration of the entire city.

2876
03:32:59,340 --> 03:33:03,380
I will make sure that beyond so is treated fairly and accordingly.

2877
03:33:03,500 --> 03:33:07,880
I haven't been contacted at all, not even after yesterday's comments, but if they want to do so,

2878
03:33:08,020 --> 03:33:08,900
I will do that.

2879
03:33:08,920 --> 03:33:10,460
They did not come see me last week.

2880
03:33:10,520 --> 03:33:11,860
We should not shout out for nobody came.

2881
03:33:12,700 --> 03:33:18,520
We're going to listen to everyone, but we're not going to, but he, the business administrator

2882
03:33:18,520 --> 03:33:24,400
listens to every speaker, it is his right now to listen for folks to listen to him,

2883
03:33:24,400 --> 03:33:24,680
please.

2884
03:33:25,580 --> 03:33:30,340
And this is not to scold anyone or to try to say anything, it is just about respect.

2885
03:33:30,760 --> 03:33:35,500
He will expect that your conversation, please respect his conversation.

2886
03:33:35,500 --> 03:33:41,920
every business, every business has to have a business license in their name or in a treating

2887
03:33:41,920 --> 03:33:48,260
as a doing business as capacity. This business doesn't have that. I never said that they never

2888
03:33:49,620 --> 03:33:55,180
had a valid license. I said you don't have a valid license today. If the valid license is presented,

2889
03:33:55,600 --> 03:34:01,040
I will work to get them open. I don't have a problem with that. I think it's important for us to

2890
03:34:01,040 --> 03:34:05,180
make sure that all businesses who want to operate in this city at the opportunity to do so,

2891
03:34:05,420 --> 03:34:09,940
but we have to balance that against places, particularly those places who sell food to ensure

2892
03:34:09,940 --> 03:34:14,420
that our residents are not subjected to conditions that are inappropriate.

2893
03:34:16,280 --> 03:34:20,340
I think the last thing I have to say is with respect to the American Rescue Plan Act,

2894
03:34:20,500 --> 03:34:25,420
the city got $83 million and it's under, you know, tremendous scrutiny from the federal

2895
03:34:25,420 --> 03:34:29,900
government. If anybody wants information about how that money was spent, we can get that to them

2896
03:34:29,900 --> 03:34:33,060
as well. I don't know about the billions of dollars that the city should have gotten

2897
03:34:33,060 --> 03:34:39,900
it was eligible for. That was referenced by the council day as if I age is here.

2898
03:34:41,340 --> 03:34:43,500
You can address the payroll situation quickly.

2899
03:34:45,680 --> 03:34:50,480
Well, I'm not sure. You had your mouth. I cannot. We cannot get into it. Later on, we'll talk to

2900
03:34:50,480 --> 03:34:56,300
you as follow. I cannot have. We cannot. It's not. We've got a budget too.

2901
03:35:01,040 --> 03:35:12,100
Good afternoon. I am a way direct to use services. So I do know there was a couple concerns that was mentioned in the meeting yesterday.

2902
03:35:12,500 --> 03:35:26,000
And I want to give you guys as much clarity as possible as I do run a day-to-day operation for some youth employment. So here I am. Any questions? Any concerns? Please allow me to answer on Twitter best of my ability.

2903
03:35:28,400 --> 03:35:29,240
Any questions?

2904
03:35:30,980 --> 03:35:31,840
Don, don't, don't, don't.

2905
03:35:32,060 --> 03:35:32,860
Just, it's not here.

2906
03:35:35,940 --> 03:35:37,880
It's in me, I don't know where she's at.

2907
03:35:39,540 --> 03:35:40,460
Let me, let me just.

2908
03:35:53,110 --> 03:35:54,310
All right we have.

2909
03:36:03,840 --> 03:36:04,560
Okay, just.

2910
03:36:05,100 --> 03:36:05,800
The fold.

2911
03:36:08,500 --> 03:36:08,740
Wow.

2912
03:36:09,540 --> 03:36:09,820
I know.

2913
03:36:10,980 --> 03:36:11,420
I told.

2914
03:36:12,340 --> 03:36:15,260
Okay, can we, just to be a,

2915
03:36:15,860 --> 03:36:17,740
it's to be a, can we do this on another?

2916
03:36:17,740 --> 03:36:27,240
I can't we just do this at a special war because it because of the the budget we need to close and

2917
03:36:27,240 --> 03:36:33,860
and because I think it's good. Right and I think we can we could we go wait on as you say could be

2918
03:36:33,860 --> 03:36:42,560
up or long. No no no we we have a budget we have the apartments that we have said to them at four o'clock

2919
03:36:42,560 --> 03:36:48,520
So we need to move forward. Close the meeting must be a and then have this meeting and

2920
03:36:49,180 --> 03:36:57,880
And if council women Jackson would like to meet with you. I think you should do that immediately and then do a presentation to the council sometime

2921
03:36:58,580 --> 03:37:05,450
And September. I mean, it's just press total time. We're press. Oh, you're okay

2922
03:37:05,450 --> 03:37:12,490
You want to make a statement. So I can't make a statement

2923
03:37:12,490 --> 03:37:17,970
which is about 1,300 young people, and with that, just to give you guys some clarity,

2924
03:37:18,870 --> 03:37:25,390
we were able to about 1,000 young people was able to go into direct deposits.

2925
03:37:25,590 --> 03:37:31,970
So when people speak about paid issues or paid concerns, most of our kids receive an direct deposit.

2926
03:37:32,090 --> 03:37:34,850
This is the first time in history that we had this many last year.

2927
03:37:34,850 --> 03:37:37,630
We want to have 50 this year. We have close to 1,000.

2928
03:37:37,630 --> 03:37:42,830
So I don't mind me and with Councilman Jackson, I don't mind at all.

2929
03:37:43,270 --> 03:37:46,770
I did, you did say on Tuesday you was coming by the office, but please don't hesitate.

2930
03:37:47,130 --> 03:37:48,350
I would love to come see our office.

2931
03:37:48,570 --> 03:37:55,010
I gave you guys a fold of everything in terms of the flyers, our next gen, our up next.

2932
03:37:55,150 --> 03:38:01,670
Letting you know we do have the demographic attorney ages 18 to 24 and then we also have 14 to 24 as well.

2933
03:38:01,710 --> 03:38:07,410
All that information is in the folder that I gave you guys and I sent you guys all the information on very email as well.

2934
03:38:07,410 --> 03:38:10,150
We'll get back to this one quick thing.

2935
03:38:10,530 --> 03:38:14,550
Yes. I definitely do want to meet ASAP, but I'm going to say this to you on the record.

2936
03:38:14,890 --> 03:38:18,450
And we don't have an issue of a folks do and I'll deal with that later.

2937
03:38:19,290 --> 03:38:24,730
Obviously over a hundred text messages yesterday and my phone with people,

2938
03:38:25,170 --> 03:38:30,170
you children and their parents and the summer youth program that have not been paid.

2939
03:38:30,450 --> 03:38:35,450
So what I want to say is this, but I want to say is this, I'll never represent anything.

2940
03:38:35,450 --> 03:38:38,290
I can hand you my phone now because I'm still getting taxes.

2941
03:38:38,870 --> 03:38:44,290
I'm just saying we have an issue, we have always had an issue and this year for me, we

2942
03:38:44,290 --> 03:38:48,350
should have all the bumps in the road we had, they should have been clarified and fixed.

2943
03:38:48,790 --> 03:38:54,290
The fact that these kids are working on staggered schedules, the fact that Monday, several youth

2944
03:38:54,290 --> 03:38:59,050
were told that it was the end of their program, including some of that work in this building.

2945
03:38:59,990 --> 03:39:03,290
Okay, I wasn't disputing anything, I was stating what I was told.

2946
03:39:03,290 --> 03:39:06,450
I interview those three young people in the mail room.

2947
03:39:06,710 --> 03:39:10,030
I interview three young people that work as somebody else's department.

2948
03:39:10,750 --> 03:39:14,910
And so when I'm talking to the participant and they're telling me

2949
03:39:14,910 --> 03:39:17,490
and I have young people who are getting ready to go to college,

2950
03:39:17,870 --> 03:39:20,850
that are panicking because they don't have their pay.

2951
03:39:21,610 --> 03:39:23,370
That's why I'm simply asking Ms. Gaylord.

2952
03:39:24,190 --> 03:39:27,030
So I definitely want to sit down with you, so we can go through that.

2953
03:39:27,290 --> 03:39:30,410
But we have got to do better and I'm just going to say this in fact,

2954
03:39:30,770 --> 03:39:32,090
it's been an issue every year.

2955
03:39:32,090 --> 03:39:37,250
I remember under the book, we had about pizza for the children down at a symphony hall.

2956
03:39:37,490 --> 03:39:39,290
So let's not act like that didn't happen either.

2957
03:39:39,750 --> 03:39:43,750
But every year there is an issue with our children being a pain.

2958
03:39:44,170 --> 03:39:46,010
The young lady who's mother came yesterday.

2959
03:39:46,530 --> 03:39:48,070
That child tries to do it.

2960
03:39:48,070 --> 03:39:48,830
She got paid.

2961
03:39:48,970 --> 03:39:51,230
She got paid, but she tried to do direct deposit.

2962
03:39:51,690 --> 03:39:55,050
And what was she was told is that she has to use the direct pay card.

2963
03:39:55,530 --> 03:39:57,830
So I didn't want her mother to come back down here today,

2964
03:39:58,270 --> 03:39:59,730
because this is not a back and forth.

2965
03:40:00,000 --> 03:40:05,100
People are presenting what's going on with them. Our mother came yesterday. So that was good enough for me.

2966
03:40:05,520 --> 03:40:15,040
So I will say this, the 100 that you do have, you do have the pay registry, so you can actually check your own, your reference, who was receiving pay and who did it.

2967
03:40:15,120 --> 03:40:15,880
All right, no problem.

2968
03:40:16,880 --> 03:40:19,900
I don't quite agree. We're going to bring this meeting to a conclusion.

2969
03:40:20,100 --> 03:40:20,880
We're going to meet tomorrow.

2970
03:40:21,720 --> 03:40:23,240
No, not tomorrow. Okay.

2971
03:40:23,440 --> 03:40:24,380
We'll meet.

2972
03:40:26,610 --> 03:40:28,070
You guys, thank you.

2973
03:40:28,270 --> 03:40:29,510
All right.

2974
03:40:36,960 --> 03:40:37,440
Yes,

2975
03:40:56,710 --> 03:41:00,890
can we have a 10 minute so we can organize a 10 minutes of 15 minutes.
