Yes,
ma'am
the
alternate

The

would
be

residential
use
only

townhouse
units,
Max
two-story

maximum
South
Greenwood
would
have
the
primary
streets
facing
the
entry
door.
South
Greenwood
would
have
a

least
a
10

Setback

Bennett

have
a
seven
foot
setback
minimum
and
those
were
the
applicant's
revised
proposed
conditions
that
we've
been
given.

Ordinance
to
amend
Chattanooga
city
code,
part

chapter
38,
Zone
awareness,
so
it's
original
property
is
located
at
2706
Dodge,
Avenue,
2767,
East,
28th

and
an
honored
address
parcel
in
the

of
East

from
R1
residential
Zone
to
rtz
residential

they're.
A
lot
lines
on
all.
B
H
Thank
you,
madam
chair.
There
was
a
lot
of
discussion
earlier
about
this
ordinance
and
I.
Think
there
were
some
questions
swirling
around
the
128
days
that
they
could
continue
to
operate.
It's
not
that
they
can
operate
for
128
days
without
being
in
compliance.
It's
state
law
now
they're,
subject
to
open
meetings.
H
In
fact,
the
state
law
says
that
you
cannot
hear
cases
on
the
front
end.
You
have
to
hear
them
on
the
back
end,
so
I
think
we
would
be
putting
them
in
a
position
that
would
be
less
than
desirable
to
be
to
ask
them
to
do
something.
That's
in
opposition
to
state
law,
I'm,
not
sure
and
and
what
I
heard
the
chief
say.
Her
fear
was
that
they
would
be
operating
outside
the
bounds
of
the
law,
which,
quite
frankly,
wouldn't
be
a
good
look.
I,
don't
think
for
an
advisory
committee.
That's
oversight.
B
I
I
I
It
has
nothing
to
do
with
the
the
intent
of
the
ordinance
and
to
allow
the
chief
and
other
processes
to
continue
it.
It
really
is
more
of
an
opposition
vote
to
the
state
legislation
that
is
and
has
taken
effect.
So,
while
I
agree
with
all
of
my
colleagues
that
we
have
created
something
very
special
in
this
board,
and
it
operates
very
well
and
I've
not
heard
from
a
single
person
in
the
police
department
on
park
or
the
community.
I
That
says
otherwise
is
a
testament
to
all
the
work
that
you
all
have
done
over
a
very
long
period
of
time,
because
it
was
incredibly
contentious
to
put
this
into
effect.
We
received
a
tremendous
amount
of
criticism.
We've
received
a
tremendous
amount
of
concern
from
a
lot
of
different
people,
including
officers
in
the
seat
in
the
police
department.
I
None
of
that
exists
today
because
of
the
great
work
that
you
all
do
and
I
don't
want
that
to
go
unsaid.
My
support
of
this
ordinance
before
us
this
evening
is
not
in
opposition
of
the
work
you
do.
It
is
simply
we
don't
have
a
choice.
State
law
is
already
in
effect.
The
moratorium
is
simply
to
give
us
an
opportunity
to
recreate
the
board
in
a
way
that
can
tell
that
can
continue
to
function,
but
it
can't
function
today
by
state
law.
So
not
passing.
I
So
I
asked
a
question
earlier
and
I
just
I
think
it's
very
poignant
and
I'm
going
to
ask
it
again
if
those
of
you
that
are
here
in
park,
if
this
does
not
pass
and
we
tried
to
conduct
business
as
usual,
meaning
you
hear
cases
ahead
of
time.
You
hear
cases
without
them
being
public
meeting
and
operate
the
way
we
have
in
past
meetings.
Are
there
any
of
you
willing
to
continue
that
way
in
personally
violating
state
law?
I
I
But
let
me
reiterate:
support
of
this
ordinance
tonight
is
not
supporting
the
state
legislation
that
has
taken
away
the
incredible
work
and
ability
of
the
members
of
our
Park
committee,
and
thank
you
so
much
for
all
of
the
work
that
you
do
and
I
hope
that
somehow,
in
this
moratorium
phase
that
we
can
work
to
put
this
board
back
together
in
the
fashion
that
it
is
so
that
it
can
remain
functional.
It
can
remain
a
very
valuable
piece
of
the
process.
I
Our
police
department
and
our
chief
has
been
committed
to
continue
and
I
know
that
I'll
be
working
on
it
as
best
I
can
and
have
a
feeling
that
all
my
colleagues
will
as
well.
So
with
that
Madam,
chair
I
did
second
I
will
be
supporting
this
evening,
but
I
will
not
be
supporting
it
because
of
the
state
legislation.
I
will
be
supporting
it
because
we
have
no
choice
and
I
will
not
put
our
police
chief
and
our
Park
Board
in
a
position
of
violating
state
law.
B
J
You,
madam
chair
I,
take
a
little
different
view
than
my
esteemed
colleague
I,
respect
everything
he
said,
I
I'm,
going
to
vote
against
this
and
the
reason
I'm
going
to
vote
against
it
is
I.
Don't
want
to
place
moratorium
on
them.
I
want
them
to
have
the
freedom
to
decide
whether
or
not
they
think
they
can
go
forward,
not
as
they
were,
because
there's
been
a
right
taken
away
from
them,
and
that
is
the
right
to
discuss
things
or
understand
things
in
private.
J
H
H
If
we
don't
pass
this
tonight
and
that's
really,
what
this
is
about
is
is
is
taken
up,
putting
the
pause
on
the
ordinance
that
requires
part
to
be
involved
on
the
front
end
and
saying:
okay,
we're
going
to
pause
that
so
that
the
chief
can
go
ahead
and
take
care
of
the
business
that
needs
to
be
taken
care
of.
So
I
just
want
to
make
sure
that
we
understand
the
predicament
that
we're
putting
the
chief
in
if
we
don't
pass
this
tonight.
Thank
you,
madam
chair.
F
You
chairwoman,
in
this
conversation
about
State
preemption
I,
think
that
it
would
make
a
much
stronger
statement
for
the
park
board
to
say
publicly.
We
are
no
longer
able
to
do
our
job
and
therefore
we
have
to
disband
ourselves
then
for
us
to
have
a
very
safe
procedural
to
say,
we're
going
to
go
ahead
and
pause
on
it,
so
that
we
can
create
something
that
has
been
said
in
our
previous
meeting
is
an
impotent
paper
tiger.
That
is.
F
J
J
The
chief
knows
that
she
can
go
forward
without
so
and
I
did
not
see
a
majority
of
the
park
board
vote
except
that's
up
to
them,
so
I'm,
giving
them
the
right
to
vote
I'm
not
going
to
be
paternal
or
maternalistic
and
take
the
right
away
from
them.
I
think
they're
too
important
to
that
in
no
way.
If
they
say
you
know,
we
can't
do
a
proper
job
doing
this,
we
need
to
disband
ourselves
or
become
inactive
or
declare
our
own
moratorium.
She
is
in
no
way
hampered
by
law
to
go
forward.
H
So
if
Park
this
bands-
and
they
say
we're
not
going
to
meet
anymore-
the
chief
cannot
go
forward
and
it
will
hamper
the
chief
in
hearing
any
cases
until
the
point
that
we
get
part
back
in
compliance.
So
up
until
the
point
that
we
come
back
into
compliance,
the
chief
correct
me:
if
I'm
wrong,
you
will
not
be
able
to
hear
any
complaints.
That's
brought
against
an
officer.
Is
that
correct?
K
Puts
it
does
put
me
in
a
dilemma
if
we
don't
pause
the
city
ordinance
at
this
point,
it
puts
me
in
a
dilemma
of
I'm
supposed
to
but
I,
but
I'm
not
supposed
to
at
the
same
time,
if
that
makes
any
sense,
so,
according
to
the
ordinance
I
would
have
to
carry
forth
with
that,
and
you
know
it
goes
through
Park
first,
but
then
the
state
law
says
you
know,
there's
there's
a
it's
contradictory.
If
we
keep
it
the
way
it
is
right.
Now
is
my
point
and
and
I'm
I'm.
K
Not
it
puts
me
in
a
position
of
of
breaking
a
law,
whether
it
be
Minister
from
the
municipal
level
or
from
the
state
level
and
I
don't
want
to
do
that
so
I'm
not
in
any
way
swing.
Anybody's
decision,
all
I'm
simply
saying
is
that
Park,
if
you
all
decide,
as
a
group
to
you
know,
use
your
voice
to
say
I
disband
on
my
own
and
then
we're
still
in
the
park
in
the
spot.

B
All
right,
Council
you've
heard
purchases.
Okay,
it's
been
moving
properly.
Second,
any
comments
or
questions
all
in
favor,
all
the
pose
motion
passes
and
then
we
come
to
the
time
of
committee
reports.
But
before
I
do
that,
are
there
any
board
appointees
here
this
evening?
Oh
I'm,
sorry
bro,
we
got
emergency
purchase.
We
do
sorry.
L
I
will
make
it
quick
so
for
emergency
purchases.
Last
week
at
the
auction
plan
at
mocks
and
bend
experience
and
unexpected
shutdown
and
our
contracted
liquid
oxygen
suppliers
were
unable
to
provide
sufficient
oxygen
necessary
for
the
treatment
of
Wastewater,
as
well
as
the
necessary
liquid
oxygen
to
bring
the
oxygen
plant
back
into
operation.
Because
of
this
we
had
four
emergency
purchases
of
liquid
oxygen
for
the
Wastewater.
Department
first
is
an
emergency
purchase
of
120
000
from
Air
Products.
This
purchase
includes
delivery
fees
and
a
tech
visit
as
well
as
liquid
oxygen.
L
The
second
is
emergency
purchase
of
25
000
to
Sydney
Lee,
Welding
Supply.
This
is
a
second
request
for
this
issue
for
an
additional
vendor
due
to
issues
with
timing
of
inspection,
buyer
products.
The
third
is
an
emergency
purchase
of
ten
thousand
dollars
to
next
Air
for
liquid
oxygen,
and
the
fourth
is
an
emergency
purchase
of
eighty
thousand
dollars
to
lend
for
liquid
auction
and.

the
intent

prevent
or
disrupt

gathering.
If
you
would
please
go
ahead,
sir.
Thank
you.
N
Sylvester
Harris
3300,
Curtis
Street,
one
of
the
things
I
got
two
things
to
address.
One
of
them
is
about
the
police,
Advisory
Board,
and
what
I
want
people
to
understand?
That's
the
scale
that
we
tried
to
create
was
balance.
It's
not
just
what
we
do
for
this
for
the
person
that
files
reports.
We
also
look
out
for
that
officer
too.
If
he's
in
the
right,
we
we're
going
to
back
him
up.
We
got
people
that
own
that
board.
N
You
know
things
went
real
good
and
I
want
the
officers
to
know
they
need
to
push
for
this,
because,
if
you're,
not
in
the
wrong
and
you're
doing
the
right
thing,
you
know
you're
gonna
get
treated
right
on
the
board.
That's
just
the
way,
I
believe
in
I
believe
they
need
a
voice.
Just
like
the
citizen
need
a
voice.
If
a
person
didn't
do
the
right
thing,
then
that
officer
is
in
the
right
he's
going
to
get
treated
in
the
right.
N
When
I
see
an
officer
a
little
bit
more
aggressive
a
little
bit
more
having
problems,
then
we
try
to
address
that
plus
we
try
to
make
sure
not
get
a
person's
job,
we'll
go
and
say:
Hey,
you
know
get
them
a
little
bit
more
training
get
them
some
kind
of
help,
because
you
give
an
officer
not
enough
pay
to
do
a
job.
This
he's
got
to
be
a
doctor,
a
lawyer,
everything
else
and
and
decide
stuff
between
folks
and
that's
hard
on
a
person
and
I
give
them
all
a
shout.
N
We
got
the
the
herit
tuckman
site
that
used
to
be
a
housing
project,
and
it's
just
sitting
there
just
good
laying
flat
they'll
build
on
cliffs
and
everything,
but
they
won't
come
out
to
East
Chattanooga
East
Chattanooga
is
not
a
bad
place.
It's
good
people
out
there
I'm
out
there
and
I
claim
to
be
a
good
person.
So
you
know
we
need
help
out.
There
I
want
the
council
to
help
us.
You
know
some
of
the
council.
N
People
came
to
our
Aid
when
I
used
to
come
to
the
meetings
I'm
going
to
start
coming
back,
I've
been
lacking,
but
I'll
be
back,
but
you
know
we
need
help
out
there
join
together
and
help
us
out
these
Chattanooga
and
I
ain't.
Talking
about
bringing
no
Foundry
out
there.
No
chemical
plant
and
and
I
don't
mean
this
in
a
bad
way:
low
income.
N
We
can
get
our
schools
back
I,
don't
understand
why
we
don't
control
our
own
destiny
in
the
city,
but
that's
another
story
to
be
talked
about
and
I,
but
I
would
like
one
day
to
get
the
other
two
minutes
back,
that
we
lost
a
while
back
because
three
minutes,
just
not
enough
to
talk
and
I've,
been
gone.
A
while
and
I
got
a
lot
to
talk
about.
A
A
This
means
that,
just
as
important
as
the
house
is
the
neighborhood,
it
is
in
as
well
CNE
Works
in
and
with
neighborhoods
to
build
leaders,
nurture
desire,
changes
and
support
the
community.
Recently,
several
of
the
neighborhoods
we've
worked
in
brought
to
us
a
conversation
about
food
deserts.
Food
deserts
is
an
area
or
neighborhood
that
has
a
lack
of
access
to
fresh
food,
fresh
produce
and
certain
foods.
A
So
in
that
ask
we
went
ahead
and
did
a
small
mapping
exercise
of
the
areas
that
we
work
in
in
East
Chattanooga
and
identified
that
some
are
truly
food
deserts
and
some
are
ones
that
are
simply
food
deserts
out
of
unknown
access.
One
of
the
things
that
we
identified,
that
is
in
several
of
these
areas-
there
are
local,
bodegas
and
tiendas
that
a
lot
of
the
neighbors
are
just
not
familiar
with,
and
so
through
that
we
have
helped
identify
how
to
get
local
food.
A
Local
produce,
less
local,
fresh
food
in
your
community
that
you
can
easily
get
to,
and
the
next
step
of
that
is.
We
have
been
taking
Neighbors
on
what
we
call
Tienda
tours.
We
take
the
neighbors
into
these
different
bodegas
and
tiendas.
We
invite
the
owners
to
get
to
know
the
people,
so
they
can
understand
who
speaks
what
language
is
here.
Will
they
take
EBT?
What
type
of
food
do
they
serve?
A
So
the
next
step
is
that
we
will
be
reaching
out
to
our
two
wonderful
Council
women,
Noel
and
Demetrius
coonrod,
about
joining
us
on
these,
but
I
also
wanted
to
extend
the
invitation
to
any
of
you.
If
you
ever
wanted
to
come
out,
we
will
be
sending
out
notices
to
when
we'll
be
taking
some
neighbors
on
the
next
Tienda
tours.
Thank
you
very
much.
Thank
you.
Thank
you.
O
Well,
thank
you,
madam
chair.
Let
me
first
start
by
saying
congratulations
to
my
favorite
Council
representative
on
her
marriage.
I
heard
that
you're
getting
married
and
I
want
to
send
my
congratulations
to
you.
Councilman
cumrod
tonight,
let's
go
back
to
June
the
21st
of
last
year
when
the
voice
Monty
Bell,
the
homeless,
journalist,
the
gray-haired
fox,
a
man
with
the
billion
dollar
voice.
Now
a
new
address,
625
Georgia
Avenue
Chattanooga,
Tennessee
37402.
O
It
used
to
be
called
the
county
courthouse.
Now
it's
called
the
house
of
Bonnie
bail.
That's
due
to
what's
called
a
d
poll
when
persons
in
the
administration
of
the
Court
is
obligated
to
montebell
the
homeless
journalist,
the
gray
hair
is
Fox.
The
man
with
the
billion
dollar
voice,
211
billion
34
million,
will
be
granted
to
Marty
Bale
on
June
the
20th
first
of
last
year.
One
of
the
most
embarrassing
things
could
happen
to
a
television
person
is
to
make
the
news
what's
more,
embarrassing
is
to
find
out
who
did
it?
