A
D
All
right,
mr
chairman,
we
also
have
an
rfp
format
for
council
approval,
we're
requesting
approval
to
issue
an
rfp,
not
approval
to
awarding
contracts.
At
this
time
the
rfp
would
be
for
parks
and
recreation
management,
software
and
services.
There
are
numerous
software
applications
available,
both
off
the
shelf
and
custom
applications.
D
The
parks
and
outdoors
department
would
like
to
consolidate
multiple
existing
software
applications
and
find
a
single
solution
that
meets
the
needs
of
the
department
and
enhances
services
for
residents.
A
competitive
rfp
is
necessary
to
evaluate
the
various
solutions
available.
We
are
requesting
approval
to
issue
this
rfp.

In
the
absence
of
councilman
byrd,
madam
clerk,
I
will
read
the
appointment
of
lee
brock
to
the
board
of
zoning
appeals
and
speaking
of
councilman
byrd.
We
did
receive
a
letter
of
resignation
this
morning
and
I
have
submitted
that
letter
to
the
clerk
and
I'm
going
to
ask
that
she
read
that
letter
of
resignation
into
the
minutes
at
this
time.
B
To
the
constituents
of
district
a
and
the
city
council
of
chattanooga,
with
great
gratitude
and
also
no
small
degree
of
sadness,
I
hereby
submit
my
resignation
to
district
8,
chattanooga
city
councilman,
effective
upon
city
council,
consideration
confirmation
of
my
appointment
by
mayor
keller
to
the
position
of
city
court
clerk.
In
order
to
avoid
the
perception
of
a
conflict
of
interest,
I
will
refrain
from
casting
any
votes
until
my
appointment
is
decided
upon
by
the
city
council.
These
are
exciting
times
in
our
city,
with
many
good
changes
and
unprecedented
growth.
B
Since
my
initial
election
as
councilman,
I
have
worked
to
add
my
own
contributions
to
the
legacy
of
the
great,
the
and
diverse
district
8.,
I'm
proud
of
the
impact
we
made
through
community
cleanups,
as
well
as
the
ongoing
distribution
of
food,
clothing
and
toys
to
those
in
need.
And
of
course,
I
am
forever
grateful
for
the
reconstruction
of
the
avenue
community
center,
where
we
are
actively
strengthening
our
community
throughout
outreach
and
programming.
B
There
is
so
much
that
we
as
a
community
have
accomplished
together,
and
it
gives
me
hope
with
certainty
that
our
district,
along
with
the
other
eight
districts,
stand
on
firm
footing
with
a
bright
future.
It's
been
an
honor
to
serve
in
this
role
and
I
look
forward
to
continued
service
of
our
residents
and
business
through
this
new
appointment.
Sincerely
anthony
bird.
A
All
right
concluding
all
items
on
our
agenda
this
afternoon.
We
come
to
the
time
that
we
recognize
persons
wishing
to
address
the
council
this
afternoon
is
by
a
show
of
hands.
Is
there
anyone
that
would
like
to
address
the
council
this
afternoon?
Okay,
thank
you
all
right,
madam
attorney.
If
you
would,
please
read
our
rules
to
address
the
council
and,
if
you'd
like
to
go
ahead
and
make
your
way
to
the
podium,
and
you
can
begin
after.
A
E
E
You
should
definitely,
since
his
black
history
month,
I'm
going
to
recommend
bear
which
talks
about
the
last
slave
that
was
brought
to
america
after
slavery
actually
ended
it.
But
I
wanted
to
talk
about
today,
considering
it's
black
history
month
and
we've
had
an
unprecedented
conversation
about
displacement
of
african-american
residents
in
my
district,
as
well
as
all
across
the
city,
it's
important
to
talk
about
mitigation
of
harm,
recognition
of
what
is
happening
not
only
to
african
americans,
but
our
homeless
that
have
made
their
way
and
people
who
are
concerned
about
our
homeless
coming
here.
E
I
want
to
give
a
solution
that
is
not
going
to
tax
the
taxpayers,
but
it's
going
to
be
something
that
should
happen
with
development
as
a
solution
to
be
able
to
create
housing
for
people
here
in
the
city.
I
ran
with
this
with
city
council
and
it
was
a
commercial
linkage
fee.
As
a
matter
of
fact,
boston.
Massachusetts
is
the
oldest
city
in
america
that
has
a
commercial
linkage
fee
that
developers
pay
eight
dollars
per
square
foot
for
a
commercial
project
into
an
affordable
housing
fund
and
catch
this
family
from
1986
to
2000.
E
They
generated
45
million
dollars
that
ain't,
no
small
change,
so
imagine
if
they
took
that
money
and
they
made
5
000,
affordable
units
that
could
take
care
of
all
of
our
homeless
and
start
taking
care
of
people
in
our
community.
Can
it
not
what
about
arlington
virginia?
They
did
the
exact
same
thing:
a
dollar
and
77
cents
per
square
foot,
and
between
2013
and
2016.
They
raised
14
million
in
revenue.
There's
nothing
wrong
with
development,
but
developers
have
to
give
back
into
the
community
right.
E
They
should
be
able
to
do
that
and
how
do
we
build
out
if
we're
tearing
down
housing
projects
because
of
we
don't
have
the
federal
funding,
we
have
to
find
creative
ways
to
get
to
a
solution.
So
this
is
a
way
we're
just
asking
them
to
take
a
small
portion
of
their
project,
put
that
into
an
affordable
housing
fund
that
doesn't
bootstrap
the
taxpayer,
but
has
the
people
who
are
already
making
revenue
giving
back
to
the
community
and
building
up
the
infrastructure?
E
Doesn't
that
make
sense,
so
that's
give
and
take
that's
what
business
is
supposed
to
be
about?
It's
not
one-sided
right.
It's
give
and
take
so
we're
not
asking
for
nothing
for
free,
because
they're
winning
they're
winning,
obviously
because
we're
developing
we're
just
asking
that
they
give
a
small
portion
of
a
project
back
to
the
very
communities
that
they're
coming
in.
E
So
we
don't
displace
people
and
at
the
same
time,
for
the
people
who
are
on
the
streets,
we
start
putting
them
into
housing,
and
if
cities
are
doing
this
across
the
nation,
what's
chattanooga's
problem,
we
need
to
catch
up
and
do
some
new
things.
This
is
a
new
time,
councilman
byrd.
I
thank
him
for
it.
E
If
I
could
just
say
that
going
over
time,
please
I
want
to
thank
councilman
byrd,
because
he
was
the
only
council
person
who
actually
met
with
us
when
we
had
protest
demands
the
only
person
actually
sat
down
and
listened
to
us
as
young
people.
I
want
to
thank
him
in
his
absence
that
he
took
a
firm
decision
to
not
be
partial
when
he
could
have
in
casting
votes.
That's
honor,
and
so
I
want
to
thank
him
for
his
leadership
and
I'm
excited
that
the
seat
is
open,
I'll,
see
y'all
next
week.
Thank
y'all.
F
F
F
I've
been
following
planning
commission
meetings.
I've
been
following
all
of
the
zoning
cases
and
I
was
really
interested
to
see
that
presentation,
but
I'm
wondering
is
it
going
to
be
posted
on
the
website
for
the
public
to
review?
Will
we
have
a
chance
to
thank
you
to
have
some
input?
You
know
before
you
make
any
decisions,
so
I'm
really
pleased
to
see
that.
G
I
I
do
want
to
make
one
thing
clear,
which
is
that
camaros
recommendations
are
recommendations,
right
they're,
not
a
prescriptive,
a
set
of
things-
and
I
do
want
to
be
very
clear
about
that
for
the
public.
So
we
will
find
a
way
to
get
that
to
our
website
and
people
can
review
them,
but
keep
in
mind
that
this
body
has
to
go
and
adopt
those
changes
or
any
changes
that
are
made
to
our
code.
Thank.
