With
Chandler
in
2007
in
the
tax
and
license
division
as
a
tax
and
license
representative
where
she
excelled
and
was
promoted
to
the
lead
role
in
May
2013.,
it's
September,
2013
Kat,
promoted
to
the
budget
division
as
the
budget
management
assistant,
where
she
expanded
her
knowledge.
After
five
years
of
excellent
customer
service
and
honing
her
budget
skills,
she
was
promoted
to
the
budget
and
research
analyst
position
where
she
supported
various
departments
in
the
city.
G
As
of
July
of
this
year,
I'm
happy
to
say
she
was
promoted
to
a
senior
budget
and
research
analyst
and
continues
to
go
above
and
beyond.
Cat
is
a
wonderful,
dedicated
team
member
who
reflects
a
positive
attitude
and
high
work
ethic.
She
has
been
a
great
asset
to
the
city
during
her
15
years,
making
many
process
improvements
that
support
Citywide
efforts
and
making
people
smile
with
her
humor
and
love
of
life.
We
thank
her
for
her
15
years
of
outstanding
service
and
look
forward
to
many
more.
G
G
So
this
is
actually
15-year
service
recognition,
officially,
but
technically
25
years,
because
she
started
with
the
city
in
1997.
As
a
Cooperative
office,
education,
student
working
in
the
city
clerk's
office,
as
a
temporary
clerk
in
January
2008
Clarissa
became
a
permanent
member
of
Team
Chandler,
where
she
continued
her
service
in
the
city
clerk's
office.
As
a
customer
service
representative,
she
assisted
customers
with
a
wide
range
of
services,
including
passports,
elections
and
record
requests
in
October
2015
Clarissa
joined
the
Management
Services
Department
in
the
accounting
division.
G
As
an
accounting
specialist
in
accounts
payable,
she
works
to
ensure
the
timely
payment
of
City
invoices
and
purchasing
cards
and
serves
every
Department
in
the
city.
Clarissa
graduated
from
ASU
is
still
a
devoted,
Sun
Devil
fan
and
has
attended
many
games
to
cheer
on
her
nephew
who
plays
in
their
van.
She
also
loves
to
travel
in
London.
Is
her
favorite
place?
Congratulations!
Clarissa
on
15
years,
technically,
25
of
service.
You
are
a
valued
member
of
Team
Chandler
and
we
look
forward
to
many
more
years
together
and
I
just
want
to
mention
too.
A
During
her
time
in
records,
she
has
contributed
to
many
different
ways
from
helping
the
train
new
employees
to
volunteering
through
various
Department
committees
and
projects.
Amanda
has
also
volunteered
her
time
outside
the
department
working
with
Habitat
for
Humanity
and
for
several
years
she
helped
organize
and
let
teams
are
making
strides
Against
Breast
Cancer
for
her
efforts.
Amanda
has
received
the
unit
Citation
for
records,
a
community
service
award
and
meritorious
service
award.
So
Chandler
is
very
fortunate
to
have
such
a
dedicated
and
talented
employee,
so
Amanda.
Thank
you
for
your
20
years
of
exemplary
service.

H

20
Mark
today
is
her
husband
and
her
family,
which
is
pretty
much
the
cheering
section
on
the
left-hand
side
model
began
her
career
with
the
city
in
January
of
1998.
As
a
custodian
working,
the
night
shift
from
11
PM
to
7
A.M.
She
primarily
was
assigned
to
clean
the
Community
Center
Senior
Center
Police
Department
over
the
years
as
the
department
evolved,
the
work
hours
changed
and
Marta
became
familiar
with
all
City
facilities
and
served
as
someone
who
could
help
could
step
into
any
building
to
provide
services
as
needed.
H
One
could
say
that
Marshall
is
where
all
the
bodies
are
buried.
Speaking
of
bodies,
she
did
have
a
notable
experience.
She
will
probably
not
be
happy
with
this,
but
I'll
miss
it
anyway
in
the
forensic
lab
where
she
entered
the
lab
and
spotted
a
hand
that
had
been
separated
from
its
owner.
Thank
you.
H
Didn't
phase
were
a
bit
she
kept
on
cleaning
but
again
she's,
she's,
extremely
professional,
and
because
of
this,
her
expertise
stands
professionalism
in
2012.
She
was
assigned
to
a
day
shift
to
provide
Porter
services
and
they're
promoted
to
a
custodial
supervisor
in
2020..
Marta
service
to
the
city
has
been
exemplary.
She
has
provided
leadership
to
her
staff
and
unprecedented
commitment
to
provide
a
clean
working
environment
to
team
Chandler
and
its
citizens.
Congratulations!
B
I'm
still
fixating
and
I
want
to
hear
the
rest
of
the
story
about
the
hand
foreign
our

I'd
like
to

prevent
human
trafficking
to
intervene,
disrupt

syndicates
and
provide

the
city

federal
state

coalitions,
and
not
in

But

J
I
B
Foreign
next
Proclamation
has
to
do
with
national
team
Dating
Violence
Awareness
Month
I'd
like
to
invite
Chief
Duggan
Kathleen
Kane
Chelsea
grieve
the
chair
of
our
domestic
violence,
commission
and
because
of
her
work
with
our
regional
domestic
violence.
I'd
like
to
ask.
If
you
could
read
our
commission,
we
could
read
our
Proclamation.
B
B
L
M
And
whereas
nearly
half
of
teens,
who
experience
Dating
Violence
report
that
the
abuse
occurred
in
a
school
building
or
on
school
grounds
and
wear
eyes,
it
is
essential
to
raise
Community
awareness
about
the
warning
signs
of
abuse.
So
adults
can
serve
as
allies
for
prevention
and
assist
the
youth
in
our
community
and
whereas
the
city
of
Chandler

commission
is
committed
to
providing

Now,
therefore,
the
mayor
Kevin
Hartke,

of
the
city

Thank

N
We
have
had
the
pleasure
of
visiting
several
of
our
Chandler
schools
over
the
past
couple
months
and
we'll
continue
to
do
so
until
April
and
we
have
been
able
to
speak
with
close
to
700
students
on
the
importance
of
healthy

and
this
will
lead
us
right

Thank

and
and
having

These

great

A

athletes.
They
get
it
done
in
the
classroom
too
great
with
community
service
they're,
just
great
humans
and
they're
they're
kids,
that
you
want
to
root
for
later
on
as
they
progress
and
go
on
in
life,
so
they're
Champions
on
the
field,
but
they're
Champions
off
of
it
as
well
turn
it
over
to
one
of
our
our
captains,
James
Duran,.
K
B
B
So

I
could
call
up
our
Festival

and
president
matesh
Patel,
the
seventh
annual
Chandler
International
Film
Festival,
is
taking
place
now
showcasing
over
120
films
submitted

all

the
world.
In

six
continents
and
35
countries.
They
range
in
genres
too,
from
horror
to
Comedy,
to
documentaries,
to
love
stories.
You
can
also
take
part
in
screenwriting
workshops
and
maybe
even
spot
a
celebrity
or
two
or
a
lot
of
Chandler
council
members
that
love
to
hang
out
at
this
place.
B
We're
so
fortunate
to
have
such
a
wonderful
Film,
Festival
right
here
in
Chandler
and
a
personal
moment
of
my
favorite
was
yesterday
when
we
had
Rob
there,
but
it
wasn't
just
him.
It
was
the
fact
that
you
guys
had
made
a
point
of
a
sponsorship
of
our
rad
program,
which
is
Raising
above
Disability
Group
and
I
got
to
sit
next
to
Riggins.
She
was
delightful.
R
Right,
thank
you
so
much.
We
really
appreciate
all
the
support
that
you
guys
give
it
to
us
and
we
very
proud
of
the
seven
years
that
we're
here
in
Chandler
and
yes,
we
are
non-profit,
but
we
still
adopting
two
non-profits
every
year,
because
we
know
that
it's
important
to
support
our
community.
So
please
come
and
join
us
we're
going
to
be
into
the
29th,
come
and
see
movies
in
the
afternoon
and
got
me
and
say:
hi.
B
B
B
All
right,
Catherine's
got
double
duty
here
tonight,
we'd
like
to
congratulate
the
team
for
receiving
this
distinguished
budget
presentation
award
from
the
government
Finance
Officers
Association.
This
means
that
the
team
did
an
amazing
job,
presenting
an
effective
budget
presentation.
There
are
several
guidelines
in
place
to
assess
how
well
a
city's
budget
serves
as
a
police
document
financial
plan,
operational
guide
and
Communications
device.
Our
budget
did
all
of
those
things
very
well.
This
is
get
this
the
35th
year
in
a
row.
The
team
has
received
this
award.
Congratulations.
This
precedes
vice
mayor,
Orlando,
even
laughs.
D
S
You
know
it's
it's
a
great
opportunity
to
be
here
to
celebrate
another
gfoa
distinguished
budget
Award.
With
this
budget
team,
we
have
a
great
budget
team
that
does
a
phenomenal
job,
we're
one
of
the
smallest
teams
compared
to
size
in
the
valley,
and
we
just
do
they
knock
it
out
of
the
park
every
year,
I'm
so
glad
to
be
able
to
work
with
them
and
you
know
be
able
to
produce
such
a
great
document
for
the
residents
of
Chandler.
B
B
B
B
I
gotta
by
repetition
keeps
saying
vice
mayor
Orlando
and
then
I'm
gonna
get
it
so
all
right.
We
have
a
number
of
items
that
have
been
called
in
tonight
for
questions
by
Council
and
let
me
make
sure
that
I
am
not
missing
a
sheet
here
all
right.
Our
first
item
called
in
is
item
number
two.
We
had
council,
member
and
Cenas
had
some
questions
about
targeting
and
success
rates.
Do
we
have
a
presentation
and
then
once
we're
seeing
this
you
get
to
leave
with
a
question.
T
Awesome
mayor,
thank
you.
My
questions
regarding
this
item
number
two,
which
is
more
geared
towards
the
the
target
marketing
I,
wanted
to
know
from
this
budget.
How
much
was
going
to
be
allocated
to
the
direct
marketing
that
was
going
towards
the
recruitment
in
Illinois,
as
well
as
why
was
Illinois
chosen,
specifically
as
a
target
market
to
recruit
and
I?
Think
that's
all
my
questions.
Yes,
it's
all
right.
Okay,.
U
Mayor
councilman
see
us
thanks
for
the
questions
on
item
two.
This
is
a
extension
of
a
marketing
agreement
that
we
have
in
place
a
little
over
a
year
ago.
We
did
a
request
for
proposals.
Review
considered.
Multiple
marketing
agencies
ended
up,
selecting,
Davidson
blue,
so
their
approach
and
strategy
most
aligned
with
what
our
human
resources
team
I
was
looking
for
in
terms
of
being
able
to
maximize
our
exposure
and
reach
in
out-of-state
markets.
U
To
answer
your
question
specifically
about
Illinois
I'll,
take
initial
stab
I
may
ask
the
chief
to
come
up
and
elaborate
a
little
bit,
but
really
the
intent
behind
this
is
to
get
exposure
to
out-of-state
markets.
Majority
of
our
applications
that
come
in
for
positions
at
the
city,
whether
that's
in
the
police
department
or
in
other
roles,
come
from
within
Arizona
and
specifically
around
the
city
RaeLynn,
our
HR
Director
often
says
we
are
in
the
the
mindset
of
trading
Talent
among
other
Valley
Cities.
U
So
this
is
really
an
effort
to
try
and
get
exposure
and
increase
the
number
of
applications
that
are
coming
into
our
into
our
city
for
various
roles,
ranging
from
police
to
I.T,
to
Public
Works,
to
administrative,
a
variety
of
different
roles
that
are
necessary
specific
to
your
question
about
the
police
department.
So
this
is
an
effort
essentially
to
enhance
and
expand
our
Police
Department
recruitment,
given
that
some
of
the
challenges
that
they're
currently
facing
what
you
have
before
you
tonight,
roughly
181
000
of
that
agreement
is
specifically
for
the
police
department.
U
Within
that
the
Media
budget
that's
proposed
is
153
000
and
within
that
there's
multiple
states
that
would
be
targeted.
So
we
would
be
working
with
the
vendor
to
identify
those
opportunities,
but
it
would
be
a
portion
of
that
153
000
is
what
would
be
targeted
for
Illinois.
Specifically,
we
don't
I,
don't
have
the
specific
figure,
but
it
would
be
a
percentage
or
a
portion
of
that,
and
so
we
would
work
with
the
market
agency
depending
on
what
we
feel
our
needs
are.
U
What
our
success
rate,
and
that
is
over
a
span
of
several
months,
is
what
we're
tracking
Illinois
specifically
we've
had
some
success
in
attracting
applicants
minus
this
activity
right
now.
Illinois
is
our
second
highest
on
applicant,
roughly
Illinois
and
California.
We
have
they're
essentially
neck
neck
in
terms
of
specific
to
the
police
department,
applications
for
2022
and
there's
also
some
legislation
that
has
taken
effect.
U
That
is,
quite
frankly,
made
it
more
difficult
for
law
enforcement
to
do
the
things
that
they
need
to
do
and
I'll
have
the
chief
maybe
get
come
up
and
talk,
but
it's
a
legislation
called
Safety
legislation.
So
we
just
feel
that
there's
a
lot
of
opportunity
to
Target,
Illinois,
specifically
and
attract
applicants.
There
are
also
other
states
that
are
in
this
marketing
proposal.
States
that
surround
Arizona,
specifically
Nevada
Utah,
New,
Mexico,
Colorado
and
then
states
in
the
Pacific
Northwest
and
then
Illinois
would
be
the
one
Midwestern
State.
U
A
Thank
you
good
evening,
mayor
council,
so
for
the
last
year
and
a
half
the
police
department,
we've
been
averaging
about
30
police
officer
vacancies
per
month
for
the
last
18
months.
In
fact,
since
July
of
2021,
when
Council
approved
and
additional
25
bodies,
25
positions
and
obviously
I
reported
out
in
November
some
of
our
updated
efforts
in
recruiting.
But
the
reality
is
that
we
need
to
do
more
than
we're
doing.
Presently.
A
We
know
that
in
the
valley
today
there
are
roughly
1
000
police
officer
vacancies
in
the
valley,
so
we
are
competing
with
every
other
agency
in
the
valley
and
that
pool
the
pool
of
talented
and
qualified
people
that
are
still
willing
to
be.
Police
officers
has
been
depleted,
so
we
need
to
set
our
sights
outside
of
Arizona
if
we're
going
to
fill
our
ranks.
So
our
Target
now
is
the
the
the
Midwest
the
Northeast.
These
are
areas
that,
as
far
as
policing
with
their
standards
or
training,
are
very
much
aligned
with
Arizona.
A
So
that
is
a
deliberate
tactic.
Why
we're
looking
at
those
areas
and
just
anecdotally
the
officers
the
recruits,
but
especially
the
laterals,
that
we've
hired
from
those
States
have
been
Stellar,
so
very
impressed
with
the
the
caliber
and
the
and
the
and
the
quality
of
officers
that
are
out
there.
So
we
are,
we
are
hoping.
Our
expectation
is
that
by
this
investment
we'll
be
able
to
expand
our
reach
and
to
just
really
highlight
to
others
outside
the
state.
L
V
So,
item
number:
six:
it's
a
zoning
code,
Amendment!
It's
a
citizen
initiative.
Zoning
code,
amendment
to
expand
ours,
do
a
couple
things
to
a
section
of
our
code
that
regulates
medical
marijuana
and
briefly
just
list
out
in
bullet
point
kind
of
format.
What
these,
what
these
items
are
and
then
be
happy
to
answer
any
questions
as
well.
The
citizen
group
that
applied
for
this
is
here
tonight
and
has
a
PowerPoint
presentation
as
well
for
you.
V
So
the
the
changes
are
proposed,
they're,
pretty
small,
it's
a
short
little
list
and
in
essence
they
want
to
expand
the
size
of
the
permitted
facilities
in
Chandler.
There
are
three
types
of
medical
marijuana
uses
in
Chandler:
there's
the
facility
where
you
can
buy
the
product,
there's
a
cultivation
site
where
you
can
grow
it
and
then
there's
the
infusion
food
establishment,
where
you
process
it
great
brownies
and
other
other
things
gummies,
and
things
like
that.
V
So
the
first
request
is
to
expand
the
size
limitation
for
medical
marijuana
facility,
where
it's
sold
from
currently
2500
square
feet
to
a
maximum
of
5
000
square
feet,
to
expand
the
size
limitation
for
a
cultivation
site
again,
where
that's
grown
from
3
000
square
feet
to
5
000
square
feet
and
then
establish
a
size
limitation
for
the
medical
marijuana
infusion
food
establishment.
Currently
we
don't
have
a
limitation
on
that
size,
but
established
kind
of
across
the
board,
also
five
thousand
feet
so
five,
five
and
five
as
well.
V
And
then
this,
the
last
piece
of
this
request
is
to
permit
the
co-location
of
an
ancillary
medical
marijuana
facility
with
its
Affiliated
on-site
cultivation,
site
or
infusion
food
establishment.
Subject
to
a
list
of
things
a
conditional
use
permit
would
be
required.
It's
got
to
be
considered
ancillary
to
the
primary
use.
It
can't
be
larger
than
2500
square
feet
or
25
percent
of
the
gross
area.
V
Whichever
is
less,
it's
got
to
be
located
within
a
quarter
mile
of
a
artillery
roadway
and
have
direct
Frontage
onto
right
away,
can't
be
buried
in
the
back
of
a
of
an
industrial
facility.
So
those
are
real,
quick
bullet
point
of
what
this
request
is
and
many
little
pieces
of
the
code
that
regulates
medical
marijuana
and
I'd
be
happy
to
answer
any
questions
or
turn
it
over
to
the
applicant
for
them
to
make
their
their
PowerPoint
presentation.
Councilman
Morales.
M
Q
Mayor
for
your
record,
Lindsey
shuby,
Marin
Council,
mayor
of
vice
mayor
council,
Lindsay
she'll,
be

the
law

and
Burnham

North
Central
in
Phoenix,
Arizona,
mayor
I,
don't
know
if
you
guys
want
a
full
presentation.
I
can
stand
for
questions
I
know.
Sometimes
you
want
different
things
so.
Q
Okay,
this
will
be
very
land,
useless,
I
spent
10
years
with
Paul
Gilbert.
We
learn
how
to
talk
but
I'm
going
to
do
it
very
condensed.
Okay,
so
do
you
see
this
all
on
your
screen?
We
have
been
here
for
a
while.
We
actually
introduced
this
in
Fall
of
2021,
but
then
officially
submitted
in
April
of
2022
and
then
again
we
submitted
September,
9th
and
then
again
October
27th
of
last
year.
Q
So
we've
been
working
on
this
for
a
while
I'm
here
on
behalf
of
Michael
O'brien
and
Jeremy
Basha
they're,
both
Chandler
residents,
members
of
the
Chandler
Chamber
of
Commerce
and
incredible
stewards
of
the
community.
You
guys
have
such
an
incredible
Community
I,
always
love
study
session
and
seeing
all
the
accolades
that
you're
offering.
But
these
These
Fine
men
are
part
of
that
fabulous.
Q
Community
work
with
Chandler
Unified
School
District
I
can
save
second
base
pub
crawl,
State
48
Ready
set
go
Foundation
as
well
as
Chandler
Compadres
to
name
just
a
few
Kevin
did
a
really
nice
job
of
explaining
the
text
amendments.
The
only
one
thing:
that's
in
there
that's
a
technical
Nuance
is.
We
are
just
cleaning
up
the
ordinance.
This
is
for
my
friend,
Kelly
Schwab
in
the
legal
department
that
dispensaries
can
be
operated
as
dual
use.
That's
just
cleaning
up
to
be
consistent
with
state
law
to
be
clear
establishments.
Q
Adult
use
only
cannot
be
operated
here,
just
to
do
duel
used
to
be
consistent
with
state
law,
so
one
thing
I
think
that's
really
important
is
Chandler
has
always
had
very
strong
separations
between
protected
uses.
That
is
why
you
have
very
few
marijuana
facilities
in
the
city
of
Chandler.
I
was
around
when
that
first
happened.
Some
of
you,
council
members
were
around
it.
With
the
initial
adoption
of
your
medical
marijuana
ordinance.
We
are
not
proposing
to
change
that
at
all.
Q
Q
As
you
can
see,
you
have
a
lot
of
protected
uses,
especially
your
your
separation
between
residential
is
something
that
is
is
very
meaningful.
It's
the
biggest
one
of
the
biggest
in
the
state,
so
the
first
one
just
to
clean
up
to
conform
with
state
law.
Second,
one
as
Kevin
said:
I
was
here
before
when
we
did
another
text
Amendment
to
the
medical
marijuana
section.
Some
of
you
may
remember,
and
we
asked
to
go
later.
Q
A
lot
of
you
looked
at
me
in
the
eye
and
said:
Lindsay
never
come
back
to
ask
to
be
open
any
later,
so
I'm
not
doing
that
I'm
keeping
my
word,
but
we
are
asking
to
be
open
at
seven
o'clock
in
the
morning.
The
normal
work
day
is
from
8
A.M
to
5
p.m,
and
so
to
be
open
at
7am
to
be
able
to
get
people
from
before
they
go
to
the
office,
so
they
can
get
straight
home
to
their
families
after
they're
done
with
work.
Q
That
is
why
we're
requesting
to
be
open
two
hours
earlier
again,
as
Kevin
described
the
size
right
now.
Your
the
retail
square
footage
is
limited
to
2
500
square
feet.
We
are
asking
to
go
to
5
000
cultivation,
we're
going
from
three
thousand
to
five
thousand
in
Fusion.
There
is
no
limit
right
now
we're
going
to
cap
that
at
5
000.
you
can
see
from
this
chart.
Q
Q
In
addition,
if
you
are
to
approve
a
dispensary
in
industrial
zoning,
the
size
will
be
limited
to
2
500
square
feet
or
25.
Whichever
is
less.
This
will
ensure
that
that
they're
put
in
the
proper
locations
again
almost
every
other
jurisdiction,
does
allow
and
and
sorry,
mayor
and
Council.
The
reason
why
we
put
these
performance
standards
in
is
to
is
to
be
consistent
with
the
way
you
treat
other
similar
uses
in
the
city
of
Chandler.
Q
Almost
every
other
jurisdiction
allows
dispensaries
and
Industrial
zoning
again.
You
will
not
be
unique.
Some
with
a
use
permit
some
by
right
and
some
with
a
conditional
use
permit.
So
again,
those
are
the
four
changes
we
come
before
you
tonight,
with
40
letters
of
support
staff,
recommendation
of
approval
and
a
unanimous
recommendation
of
approval
from
your
Planning
and
Zoning
commission
mayor
I,
hope
that
was
quick
enough
so
that
you
can
get
to
the
film
festival
and
I
stand
for
questions.
M
Thank
you
mayor
since
I
was
the
one
who
called
it
in.
It's
predicated
on
me
now
to
ask
questions
I'm,
not
mayor,
because
I
was
the
one
who
called
it
in
the
reason
why
I
call
it
in
it
I
wanted
you
to
go
on
record
Michelle
being
because
we
had
had
this
discussion
numerous
time,
and
you
know
where
I
stand
on
it,
and
my
colleagues
right
here
they're
also
very
well
aware
and
staff
is
also
well
aware,
where
I
stand
on
this
position.
M
You
know
past
10
p.m,
and
now
we're
here
again
right
talking
about
enlarging
your
borders,
giving
you
more
cleaning
up,
as
you
have
put
it,
which
is
we
should
do.
We
should
look
at
codes
if
they
are
outdated.
We
should
look
at
them
and
try
to
the
question
that
I
have
for
you
right
now.
When
will
you
be
coming
back
for
more.
Q
Mayor
vice
mayor
council,
member
Ellis,
there
are,
there
are
a
lot
of
text,
amendments
I'm,
processing,
many
text
amendments,
especially
in
the
marijuana
space
because
of
the
changes
to
state
law.
I,
think
the
other
reason
that
we
see
a
lot
of
text
amendments
in
the
marijuana
space
is
because
no
one
knew
what
was
going
to
happen
right.
It
was
so
new
10
years
ago.
I
think
there
are
still
some
some
ideological
concerns
with
regard
to
it.
Q
I
want
to
State
on
the
record
that
that
me
as
a
mom
of
three
and
my
client.
We
do
not
support
the
illegal
use
of
drugs
and
alcohol.
We
are
here
and
we
only
support
you
know
legally
tested.
You
know
the
sale
of
something
that
has
been
voted
on
and
and
that's
why
we're
here.
So
that
is
why
you,
you
do
see
a
few
more
amendments
in
the
marijuana
space
than
you
do
in
others.
Although
you
know
we
always
you
guys,
just
did
the
the
chickens.
Q
Okay,
we're
gonna
talk
about
the
chickens
anymore,
but
you
know
you
do
see
other
text
amendments.
You
know
as
you
as
you
do,
I
don't
plan
to
come
back.
You
will
see
me
if
I
am.
If
Council
does
move
to
approve
this
item,
you'll
see
you,
you
may
see
me
asking
for
a
conditional
use
permit
for
a
dispensary
and
Industrial
zoning,
and
at
that
moment
in
time
we
can
look
at
something,
that's
property,
specific
and
see
if
that
makes
sense.
But
again
this
amendment
is
Citywide.
Q
M
L
L
Why
wasn't
that
just
an
applicant
initiative
I'm
trying
to
think
what
would
it
give
me
the
definition
of
a
citizen
initiative
when
I
think
it
was
an
initiative,
I,
think
of
petitions
and
I?
Think
of
you
know
all
this
activity.
So
why
are
we
calling
some
citizens
significant
initiative
when
it's
really
an
applicant
initiative?
You.
V
Bet
so
mayor
vice
mayor,
many
different
people
can
be
an
applicant
to
seek
a
zoning
code
Amendment.
It
could
be
a
direction
from
city
council
that
actually
compromise
direction
from
Planning
Commission.
It
could
be
a
staff
initiative
and
it
can
be
all
the
way
from
the
citizens
of
Chandler
can
propose
something.
That's
actually
how
chickens
became
the
first
time
was
a
citizen
initiative
coming
to
the
council.
V
L
That
way,
yeah
and
maybe
that's
a
legal
term
but
I'm
a
little
concerned.
It
sounds
like
there's
a
Groundswell
here
for
this
gotcha
and
it
really
is
an
individual
that
is
asking
for
this
or
individuals
of
it
or
of
a
group
again,
a
finer
Point
here,
I'm,
not
disputing
this
I
have
no
problem
with
this,
but
I
think
maybe
from
a
legal
standpoint
Point.
Let's
take
a
look
at
this
again
because
again
this
from
reading
the
reading
this
it
says
this
initiative
and
I'm
saying
it's
only
one
person
asking
for
this
so
again.
Thank
you.
E
Councilmember
Harris
I
wanted
to
ask
Kelly
our
City
attorney
with
the
text
amendments
that's
being
brought
forth
with
the
Cannabis
industry
for
ever
changing
the
text
message:
the
text,
amendments
kind
of
fall
in
alignment
with
what
the
state
is
asking
was,
which
is
put
forth
by
the
voters
that
they
want
to
have
cannabis.
So
these
text
amendments
kind
of
fall
in
alignment
with
some
of
the
state
practices
as
well
correct.
W
If
I
may
marry
councilmember
Harris,
that
is
correct,
council
member
Harris,
obviously
the
state
gives
local
control
to
some
extent.
Local
governments
cannot
prohibit
the
the
sell,
manufacturing
or
cultivation
of
marijuana,
but
we
can
regulate
it,
and
so
this
amendment
is
consistent
with
state
law
and
and
allows
a
little
broader
regulation.
It
allows
a
little
broader
cell
and
distribution
of
marijuana
in
the
city,
a.
E
B
L
D
L
H
The
mirror
vice
mayor,
Orlando,
the
the
cooling
towers,
are
actually
13
years
old.
The
building
was
built
in
2010,
as
you
know,
the
typical
life
cycle
of
this
type
of
Chiller
and
the
way
it
was
constructed
out-
galvanized
steel,
it's
typically
about
15
years
lifespan.
So
we
are
a
little
ahead
of
schedule
of
that.
H
But
given
the
condition
of
the
of
the
cooling
towers
themselves,
they're
in
pretty
bad
shape,
they're
not
running
as
efficiently
as
they
should
and
they're,
also
actually
undersized
for
the
chiller
system
that
it's
operating
under
so
by
upgrading
and
replacing
the
children
we're
able
to
right
size
it
we'll
construct
it
out
of
stainless
steel.
Hope
it'll,
be
here
way
past
my
retirement
and
that's
really
it's
it's
the
current
condition
of
them.
Just
is
not
it's
not
efficient,
and
it's
it's
not
cooling
correctly.
I.
L
H
H
E
Councilmember
Harris,
yes,
I'm
Chief!
Thank
you
so
much
for
for
putting
this
forth
I'm
not
going
to
have
you
go
through
a
full
presentation,
I
feel
like
we
had
a
great
conversation
on
the
phone.
You
helped
me
understand
many
of
the
questions.
The
only
thing
that
I
probably
want
to
access
how
much
an
ongoing
saving
in
terms
of
dollars
once
we
actually
let
go
coupling
and
streamline
the
process
with
our
already
software,
how
much
in
ongoing
dollars
are
we
going
to
say
by
streamlining
that
process.
A
So
we
expect
to
save
about
thirteen
thousand
dollars
so
presently
we
now
share
the
same
records
management
system
with
Queen,
Creek,
Gilbert,
Mesa
and
Tempe.
Prior
to
that,
we
were
all
on
disparate
different
systems,
so
to
communicate
with
each
other.
We
use
a
third
party
vendor
called
coplink,
so
our
detectives
and
officers
can
access
each
other's
information
because
obviously
crime
is
regional
and
we
want
to
know
what's
happening
on
the
border,
so
we're
not
working
in
a
myopic
Silo
right
here
in
Chandler,
so
very
important
tool.
A
E
A
B
I
Thank
you,
mayor,
Chief
and
I
spoke
this
afternoon
on
the
phone
I
think
I
had
most
of
my
questions
answered.
You
know
I,
just
when
I
see
1.8
million
for
a
renovation
that
makes
me
raise
my
eyebrow,
but
it
breaks
down
to
about
230
dollars
a
square
foot
for
the
renovation,
I
guess
over
the
over
the
headquarters,
they're
busting
at
the
seams.
The
good
thing
is:
we've
been
having
a
lot
of
police
officers
and
staff
to
support
that.
I
E
P
L
A
So
today,
I,
am
certainly
grateful
and
proud
that
the
report
back
that
we
completed
the
majority
of
those
build
outs
but
also
included
in
that
facilities.
Master
plan
was
the
renovation
of
the
downtown
station
behind
us,
so
that
was
not
yet
completed,
but
that
was
part
of
the
city.
Citizens
approved
bond.
That
was,
our
citizens
approved
on
November,
2nd
back
in
2021,
in
addition
to
the
crime
lab,
so
that
the
first
step
of
that
renovation
of
the
building
is
to
utilize
the
space
that
was
vacated
by
the
firing
range.
A
That
was
located
at
the
station.
That
range
obviously
is
now
at
the
new
at
the
new
facility.
So
the
first
step
in
the
renovation
of
the
old
downtown
of
the
downtown
station,
which
was
built
in
1998
the
day
we
moved
in
the
building
was
at
capacity.
So
this
has
been
a
long-standing
issue
of
space
for
the
police
department,
so
this
is
Coveted.
Space
will
give
us
about
45
or
about
seventy
thousand
seven
thousand
square
foot
of
space
that
will
be
able
to
utilize
primarily
for
new
offices,
good.
I
You
Chiefs
Josh
we're
we.
Last
year
we
talked
about
right
sizing,
our
building
space
and
we're
talking
about
like
downsizing
and
getting
rid
of
buildings
that
we
don't
need
anymore.
This
is
kind
of
would
not
be
in
that
Spirit,
but
I
understand
it's
from
a
while
ago.
How
are
we
tracking
on
that,
since
we're
talking
about
space
and
investment,
and
things
like.
F
That
sure
thank
you,
Mr
Mayor
councilman
Stewart.
As
you
mentioned,
this
was
from
a
previous
study,
but
we
did
do
to
your
point:
a
space
utilization
study
in
the
last
couple
of
years,
I've
looked
at
all
of
our
major
city
buildings
and
how
we
can
make
better
use
of
space
and,
as
you
mentioned,
perhaps
shrink
some
of
our
footprint
where
we
could
put
like-minded
or
similar
functions
together.
We've
been
working
on
the
design
and
planning
related
to
some
of
those.
F
Some
of
them
came
with
very
large
price
tags,
so
we
have
to
make
sure
that
it's
a
good
Roi
on
that
investment,
rather
than
just
a
efficient
use
of
space.
We
are
planning
to
submit
several
of
those
items,
however,
as
part
of
our
budget
recommendations,
so
we've
been
vetting
those,
and
there
should
be
several
projects
that
speak
to
that
in
the
coming
months.
Fantastic.
B
P
B
L
Mayor
you
know,
I,
cannot
let
John
Knutson
go
without
a
meeting
without
having
come
up
here
and
tell
us
a
little
about
the
great
things
we're
doing
in
water,
but
I'll
be
brief.
John
I
know
we
get
so
for
those
of
you
out
there.
We
have
credits
of
water
and
there
are
many
Wells
throughout
the
valley
and
John
I
just
wanted
to.
Can
you
connect
the
dots
here
for
us
and
the
new
council
members?
What
we're
doing
with
this
contract.
X
Yes,
I
sure
can
mayor
vice
mayor
Orlando.
This
particular
item
in
in
front
of
you
this
evening
relates
to
the
Arizona
Water
banking
Authority.
The
Arizona
Water
banking
Authority
was
established
in
1996
with
a
mission
to
store
the
unused
portion
of
the
Arizona's
annual
Colorado
River
entitlement
and
this
the
credits
that
are
gained
when
we
store
that
water
is
to
be
used
in
drought.
At
a
later
time.
X
The
Arizona
Water
banking
Authority
has
participation
in
about
14,
underground
storage
facilities
in
Maricopa
County,
where
those
where
that
water
is
stored
and
the
credits
are
accrued.
This
with
the
Colorado
River,
drought,
increasing
or
worsening
in
in
its
severity.
This
is
really
the
first
time
that
the
water
banking
Authority
has
to
put
together
a
plan
for
the
recovery
of
those
credits
for
those
participating
members
which
Chandler
has
won.
X
So
the
the
agreement
in
front
of
you
this
evening
is
to
solidify
the
process
and
procedure
with
the
water
bank
so
that
we
can
establish
a
distribution
of
credits
to
Chandler
so
that
we
can
use
those
in
the
case
that
our
Colorado
River
volumes
are
decreased
in
the
future
and
we'd
be
able
to
recover
those
through
our
own
Wells
or
through
Partnerships
with
other
well
owners.
And
so
it's
just
a
way
to
reinforce
our
our
supplies.
X
I-E-S
Simone
closed
root
here
our
what
are
resource
manager
has
a
a
book
that
we
keep.
So
we
have
a
tremendous
volume
of
storage
credits
accrued
over
many
many
years
in
in
Chandler's
history,
so
we
are
well
prepared
for
drought
and
we
also
have
a
tremendous
aquifer
beneath
us
and
and
a
tremendous
well
fields
to
recover
if
necessary.
So,
yes,
we're
prepared.
Thank.
I
Yeah
great
question:
I'm
glad
you
brought
it
up
vice
mayor
Orlando,
you
know
Kelly
and
put
you
on
the
spot.
So
if
you
don't
have
the
answer,
we
can
Circle
back
to
this.
But
what
happens
when
or
if
somebody
says
Hey
listen,
you
guys
have
tons
of
water,
even
though
you
have
all
this
water
you're
gonna
have
to
give
it
away
right.
We've
learned
that
saving
your
acorns
for
the
winter
doesn't
necessarily
mean
anything
like,
and
we
want
to
be
a
community.
I
W
If
I
May
mare
a
council
member
Stewart,
that
is
a
very
complex
question
and
very
contingent
upon
the
facts
that
we're
facing
at
the
time
Chandler's
fortunate
that
we've
worked
very
hard
to
create
a
solid
water
portfolio
which
I
think
that
I
can
safely
say.
We
want
to
protect
that
water
portfolio,
I,
don't
have
an
answer
as
to
what
would
happen
if
there
were
Regional
sharing
requirements.
That
would
have
to
be
legislation
to
address
that,
and
so
it
is
going
to
be
very
fact
specific.
Based
on
the
time
yeah.
I
I
thought
I'd
be
putting
you
on
the
spot
there,
but
it's
something
that's
been
running
around
in
my
brain
for
a
while
and
mayor.
If,
if
I
could
ask
I'm
sure
you
probably
already
have
a
plan
because
you're
ahead
of
this
stuff,
maybe
we
could
all
get
a
briefing
on
from
John
on
where
our
water
is.
So
we
have
the
the
the
talking
points
with
the
community
and
also
be
able
to
kind
of
push
back.
If
somebody
says
hey,
you
guys
are
being
hoarders,
which
I've
already
heard
that
term
we've
been
investors
so
anyway.
B
Thank
you,
Kelly.
Thank
you,
councilmember
Council.
Those
are
all
the
calls
that
have
been
called
in
we'll
we'll
vote
on
these
as
a
consent
agenda.
Unless
anyone
pulls
in
one
for
Action,
these
will
be
a
single
vote
on
Thursday.
We
do
have
one
action
item,
I
believe,
and
that
will
also
be
separate.
So
with
that
we'll
conclude
our
meeting
and
see
you
all
on
Thursday.
