A
On
our
minutes,
I
have
a
motion
to
then
it's.
They
have
a
second
to
that
motion.
Any
questions
or
comments.
If
not
without
objection,
they
will
stand
ordinances
on
first
reading
tonight,
Madam
Clerk
I'm
not
going
to
have
you
read
all
of
these,
as
was
requested
by
certain
council
member,
so
you're
off
the
hook
there,
but
we
have
covered
these
and
we're
familiar
with
those
I
do
want
to
move
into
item
a
if
there's
any
questions
about
item
a
doctor.
Birds
is
for
a
okay,
no
questions
on
a
but
jota
I
see.
B
B
C
Yes,
Mr
chair,
sorry,
I
I
just
want
to
make
sure
we
came
back
to
item
a
I
wanted
to
quickly
just
first
say
that
we
appreciated
the
effort
and
process
the
council
put
into
the
legislative
process
that
resulted
in
the
proposed
ordinance,
and
the
administration's
perspective
is
that
the
ordinance
on
a
whole
is
a
step
in
the
right
direction
and
we
agree
on
the
need
for
an
update
to
the
rates.
C
But
I
did
want
to
respectfully
request
a
one-week
deferral
from
the
Council
on
this
item
to
discuss
an
alternative
proposal
to
specifically
two
of
the
rates
proposed
in
the
ordinances.
We
know
again
that
there
hasn't
been
a
significant
increase
in
the
rates
for
district
records
in
about
18
years,
but
we
we
do
want
to
provide
an
alternative,
because
because
we
do
have
some
concerns
around
their
A-Class
fees
and
I'm
happy
to
get
into
that.
But
I
wanted
to
stop
there
and
see
if
you
would
how
you
want
to
proceed.
C
C
Okay,
great
I,
think
our
primary
concern
right
now
is
just
limited
to
the
A-Class
fees,
particularly
the
daytime,
toe
and
night
weekend
holiday,
tow
rates,
which
the
ordinance
has
proposed
to
move
from
125
to
250
dollars
and
135
dollars
to
275
respectively,
and
the
administration's
proposed
alternative
is
to
Simply
adjust
the
previous
rate
set
in
June
2004
to
keep
up
with
inflation,
so
we'd
essentially
chain
the
tow
rate
to
inflation
and,
according
to
data
from
the
Bureau
of
Labor
Statistics,
that
put
us
at
a
daytime
tow
rate
of
a
196.37
we'd
round
up
and
propose
200,
and
then
the
the
nighttime
tow
rate
would
be
215
respectively.
C
And
the
good
news
is
that
the
administration's
proposal
on
these
rates
is
only
about
50
apart.
So
we're
not
too
far
apart
from
where
the
council
or
where
this
proposed
legislation
is.
But
we
do
believe
that
that
fifty
dollars
can
really
matter
in
this
inflationary
environment
and
particularly
to
many
chattanoogans
who,
when
they
get
a
towing
expense,
it's
it's
unexpected
and
again.
C
We
want
to
make
clear
that
we
understand
the
need
to
adjust
these
rates
for
inflation,
but
that
extra
25
27
on
top
of
that
is
just
not
something
the
administration
can
support
and
again,
if
everyday
chattanoogans
are
adjusting
their
lives
and
tightening
their
belts
because
of
inflation.
We
we
expect
that
the
towing
industry
can
do
the
same
again.
C
This
is
broadly
a
step
in
the
right
direction
and
we
hope
that
the
council
can
support
a
one-week
deferral
to
consider
just
to
change
to
those
two
specific
rates:
we're
okay
with
the
b
class
and
C-Class
rates
and
and
moving
from
Flat
to
hourly
rates,
which
we
think
can
be
a
pretty
significant
step
forward,
and
it
does
often
offer
a
a
nice
Revenue
increase
for
the
industry
as
well.
So
I'll
stop
there
and
take
any
questions
you
might
have.
Okay,.
E
So
as
far
as
the
process
was
this
process
is
concerned,
the
ordinance
it
was
a
three-month
process
it
went
through
the
bearing
worker
board
was
approved.
We
also
had
a
public
input
session,
so
a
lot
of
work
has
gone
into
this
research
of
the
rates
and
all
those
things-
and
you
know
I'm
an
everyday
chattanoogan
too
so
I
understand
that
you
know
we're
all
impacted
by
inflation.
This
has
this
organ
assessment,
something
put
on
a
back
burner
for
quite
some
time.
E
So
at
the
current
moment,
I
have
no
intentions
of
deferring
it
I
plan
to
move
forward
with
the
item
that's
presented
on
our
current
agenda,
and
so
you
know
I
understand
that
you
know
they're,
you
know
you,
you
all
have.
You
know
concerns
about
the
rates,
but
the
rates
are
comparable
to
those
in
our
area.
We
received
did
a
lot
of
research
on
this
to
make
sure
that
they
are
comparable.
E
So
I
just
wanted
to
make
sure
that
you
know
people
understood
what
the
rates
were,
why
they
were
and
why,
in
my
opinion,
there's
no
need
for
a
deferral.
F
Thank
you,
chair,
Joe,
I,
share
the
same
concerns
and,
and
speaking
with
constituents
too
up
until
today,
and
also
receiving
emails
about
the
increased
pricing
of
fees
like
they're
doubled
and
when
I
think
about
what's
happening
now
in
our
communities,
people
are
already
being
displaced,
and
if
we
can't
afford
you
know
housing
for
these
individuals
and
then,
if
they're
living
in
their
cars
and
they
lose
their
car,
the
additional
impact
that
it's
going
to
have
I
can
support.
You
know
an
increase,
but
I.
F
Don't
think
that
doubling
it
at
this
rate,
I
I,
just
don't
agree
with
that.
I
could
most
definitely
support
a
deferral.
If
that's
what
the
council
would
like
to
do
to
see.
Well,
once
it's
moved
into
ordinance
form
and
placed
on
the
agenda,
then
we
still
can
further
negotiate
it
with
that.
But
you
know
I.
Would
you
know
like
to
see
your
rate
around
you
know
150
or
the
200
between,
but
most
definitely
not
just
doubled.
F
F
For
me,
but
I
do
thank
you
for
bringing
up
your
concerns
and
and
letting
it
be
known
with
Administration,
where
they
stand,
because
I
too
have
the
same
concerns
and
I'm
not,
and
when
we
talked
about
it
in
our
strategic
planning
meeting,
there
were
several
council
members
who
voiced
concerns
about
the
fees
and
the
impact
that
it
can
have
so
and
I'ma
speak
to
my
district.
F
Although
yes,
I
agree
that
we
all
are
everyday
citizens
here
in
Chattanooga,
but
I
have
pockets
of
concentrated
poverty
where
people
are
losing
their
cars
because
they
don't
have
a
tag
on
their
car
or
they
have
visitors
to
come
to
these
housing
developments.
So
their
cars
are
getting
towed
they're
already
on
a
lower
income
Spectrum.
So
they
can't
afford
250
dollars
to
get
a
toll
more
or
less
the
additional
fees.
F
That's
added
on
there
for
every
day
and
we're
talking
about
groups
of
people
who
may
be
on
welfare
to
where
that's
185
dollars
a
month
to
try
to
supplement.
You
know
additional
things
that
they
may
need
for
their
housing.
So
I
think
this
is
an
added
barrier,
and
you
know
the
one
Chattanooga
strategy
is
about
removing
barriers,
not
increasing
barriers
to
our
citizens,
that's
in
Chattanooga!
A
E
Thank
you
so
much
yes,
a
couple
of
more
comments
and
thank
you
so
much
councilwoman
Kumar
for
your
concerns.
I
too
also,
have
you
know,
areas
of
concentrated
poverty
in
District
Seven,
but
again,
I
too
am
a
everyday
chattanoogan.
These
are
maximum
rates,
and
we
have
discussed
this
over
the
past
three
months
with
the
public
forum
rates
were
approved
out
of
the
beer
and
record
board,
so
I
just
wanted
to
make
sure
that,
oh
just
for
the
record,
we've
gone
through
the
process.
We've
gone
through
legislative
committee.
E
We've
extensively
followed
the
process
excessively,
allow
input,
not
just
from
the
public,
but
also
from
Council
as
well.
I
had
not
received
any
any
public
comment
in
via
email,
telephone
or
in
person
regarding
these
rates
for
my
constituents
or
anyone
else,
constituents
for
that
matter.
So
if
there
are
concerns
or
anything
feel
free
to
reach
out,
but
I
hadn't
heard
anything
from
from
the
time.
I
started
this
in
August
up
until
today,
so
I
just
want
to
make
sure
that
that
was
on
the
record,
and
these
are
maximum.
D
Thank
you,
chair,
Joda,
help
me
understand.
This
piece
of
legislation
has
been
in
the
works
since
August.
Why
are
you
just
now
bringing
us
concerns
now
that
we're
going
to
vote
on
it
and
ask
for
a
one-week
deferral.
C
Yeah,
thank
you
councilwoman.
So
you
know,
council
did
lead
this
legislative
process
and,
and
while
the
administration
wasn't
formally
involved
in
the
creation
of
the
legislation,
you
know
and
we
do
recognize
we
could
have
been
involved
sooner.
You
know
I
do
believe
that
when,
when
the
mayor
you
know
flagged
to
the
the
rates
you
know,
I
wanted
to
bring
this
alternative
proposal
to
council.
But
you
know,
in
terms
of
who
was
driving
the
process.
C
It
wasn't
really
the
administration,
but
again
I
I,
acknowledge
that
the
staff
could
have
brought
these
concerns
up
sooner.
But
you
know,
as
we
are
talking
about
this
ahead
of
first
read,
we
felt
it
was
appropriate
to
flag
foreign.
F
Thank
you,
I'll
defer
to
let
councilwoman
Noah
go
and
then
I'll
speak
out
to
her
very.
A
G
Thank
you
Mr
chair,
thank
you
councilwoman
comrad.
So
when
we
had
a
session
on
this,
it
was
a
raised
eyebrow
for
me
that
it
had
doubled.
But
then
everyone
was
looking
at
me
like
I,
had
a
second
head
because
I
thought
it
was
too
expensive,
but
then
they
were
saying
that
it
was
compatible
to
the
other
rates
in
other
areas
near
us,
so
once
again,
I'm
I'm,
okay,
I'm
on
board
with
councilwoman
Hill.
G
Why,
at
the
last
minute,
those
concerns
was
not
brought
up
when
I
had
an
issue
with
them
being
doubled
and
when
we
had
session
so
just
curious.
Thank
you.
Mr
chair,
yes,.
F
Thank
you,
chair
and
just
to
add
to
the
notes
and
I'm
sure,
Karen
or
Miss
Nicole
can
pull
up
the
strategic
planning
meeting
where
I
was
very
boisterous
about
my
concerns,
so
it's
really
not
anything
new
and
yes,
we
have
been
working
on
it
and
talking
about
it,
for
you
know
three
months
or
having
our
input,
maybe
once
or
twice
a
high
of
it
and
the
process
was
adhered
to.
However,
once
it
comes
in
front
of
council,
like
any
other
thing
that
is
being
brought
to
the
council,
we
discuss
it.
F
We
share
our
inputting
our
thoughts
on
it
and
then
it's
done
been
stuff.
We
done
totally
agreed
upon
as
a
counselor
and
once
it
make
it
to
the
agenda,
it's
done
change
the
whole
format,
so
we're
gonna,
say:
okay,
for
this
particular
thing.
Well,
everything
else.
We
need
to
make
sure
that
we'll
abide
by
that
meaning
you're
saying
oh,
if
somebody
come
up
with
something
the
same
questions
need
to
be
asked.
Why
did
you
wait
till
they
get
to
this
point
to
want
to
change
it?
F
F
We
need
to
start
being
consistent
and
if
we're
not,
if
you
things
change,
that's
the
point
of
changing
Council
one,
but
she
did
a
great
job
on
it.
But
that
does
not
mean
everybody
has
to
agree
to
it
that
we
should
be
muzzled
or
raped
of
our
voices
to
say
you
know
what
we
agree
to
or
what
we
don't
agree
to.
It's
not
taken
away
from
the
work
that
she
done
and
then
I
just
want
to
remind
everybody.
F
This
is
Chattanooga
we're
creating
a
one,
Chattanooga
region
or
district
for
what
face
for
the
chattanoogans
here,
we're
not
looking
at
what
other
people
are
doing
to
try
to
mimic
for
their
areas,
we're
looking
at
what's
best
for
Chattanooga.
What's
best,
that's
going
to
be
workable
for
our
citizens
what's
affordable
for
our
citizens,
not
what's
happening
in
the
next
region
over
or
whatever
that
they're
doing
so
we're.
F
F
It
goes
back
to
whenever
a
council
person
that
we
may
favor
or
not
to
what
we
want
to
say
we're
going
to
stick
to
it,
even
if
we
don't
agree
with
it
and
if
it's
a
no,
it's
a
no
and
just
like
councilwoman
dollar
said
like
she
wants
to
move
forward
with
it,
but
it's
nine
of
us
and
if
whoever,
however,
we
choose
to
defer
it
to
work
on
it.
If
that's
what
we
choose
to
do,
that's
fine!
F
H
Thank
you,
Mr,
chair
sitting,
listening
to
the
discussion
and
the
request
from
the
administration
having
a
little
bit
of
History
over
the
last
I,
don't
know
eight
years,
however
long
I've
set
up
here
many
times
when
we
get
to
a
point
that
we're
ready
to
present
legislation,
a
council
person
perhaps
will
ask
for
a
little
bit
more
time
to
look
at
something,
and
we
have
typically
accommodated
that
unless
you
know
I
don't
know
unless
there
was
a
circumstance,
maybe
where
time
was
of
the
essence,
where
I'm
not
sure
that
that
we
need
to
pass
this
this
week
or
next
week
or
or
whenever
and
and
I'm
always
surprised
that
we
can.
H
H
A
couple
of
media
published
reports
about
it
and
so
I
guess
we're
getting
a
little
bit
of
feedback
and
people
are
saying:
hey.
What's
going
on
what
you
know
and
and
I
got
some
responses.
H
Well,
so
I
I
think
I
want
to
make
sure
that
we
have
it
right
rather
than
quickly
so
I
I
would
tend
to
be
in
favor
of
of
a
deferral
just
to
make
sure
that
we
have
this
right
because
it
has
been
so
long
since
we've
addressed
it
and
and
I'm
not
sure
that
I
I
don't
see
a
deferral.
H
I
First
of
all,
let
me
say
good
evening
to
everyone:
I
too,
listen
to
everybody,
their
comments
and
and
I.
Think
since
August
we've
we've
talked
about
this,
we've
discussed
it
and
why
I
defer
something
we've
all
set
around.
We
pondered
over,
we
studied
and
there's
in
my
opinion,
there's
no
need
to
defer
it.
I
Since
we
did
we
we
discussing,
we
debated
it
over
I.
Think
it's
time
to
some.
Some
of
my
folks
in
my
District
said,
was
too
expensive,
but
they
came
to
thought
that
for
the
Berryman
Chattanooga,
let's,
let's
continue
this
process
thanks.
A
Thank
you,
sir.
Any
other
comments
want
to
be
made
on
the
record
for
this
item.
Before
we
move
into
our
items
under
legal
all
right,
seeing
none
I
believe
Dr
Burrs,
we
started
on
the
building
the
fuel
and
gas
The
Mechanical
plumbing
and
fire
code
question.
If
you
don't
mind,
ma'am
I
believe
the
administration
would
like
to
make
a
quick
comment
as
we've:
okay,
very
good.
Yes,.
C
So
I
I
did
want
to
I
feel
like
I'm
having
Deja
Vu
here
I
asked
the
administration
if
they
would
entertain
a
deferral
on
this
item.
We
did
have
some
comments
from
folks
who
work
with
this
code
every
single
day
and
some
feedback
that
has
come
into
the
administration
and
to
counsel
and
I.
Think
the
exact
deferral
time
frame
is
something
that
I
think
we
can
hammer
out
actually
sometime
this
afternoon,
but
by
six
o'clock.
C
I
think
the
administration
could
provide
some
more
feedback,
whether
it
be
two
weeks
or
30
days
to
to
better
understand
the
impact
that
this
might
have
on
our
Housing
Industry,
particularly
given
our
topography
challenges
and
how
there
may
be
some
differences
between
the
the
code-
that's
adopted
in
Hamilton
County
in
here,
so
that
would
just
respectfully
request
a
deferral
on
this
item.
Joe.
A
A
To
Adam
F,
which
is
the
fire
code:
okay
and
it
is
yeah
and
is
my
understanding
that
we
need
to
understand
too,
that
if
we
do
a
deferral,
an
ordinance
we'll
take
two
reads
so
it'll
be
two
weeks
so
make
sure
and
we're
obviously
not
here
on
the
27th
and
the
third
Dr
Burrs
I
see
your
light.
You
have
the
floor.
B
Yeah,
a
deferral
is
fine,
but
I
was
listening
to
the
chair
and
we
like
to
have
a
time
so
30
days.
B
Well,
you
said
we
were
going
to
hammer
things
out
and
we
don't
need
to
hammer
things
out.
I
think
chair
just
said
that
we
couldn't
because
of
the
two
readings
right.
C
C
B
B
A
Well,
it's
the
first
day
we'll
be
back
okay,
so
if
I
may,
I
would
like
to
get
the
city
attorney's
opinion
on
pushing
this
to
January
10th.
Are
we
borderline
with
compliance,
or
do
you
think,
if
long
I'm
going
to
leave
the
question
I'm
going
to
leave
the
witness?
Do
you
think
if
we
are
working
on
something
in
that
general
direction,
that
we
will
be
okay
with
the
state?
You
see
how
I
did
that.
J
Thank
you,
I
will
say
yes
with
a
little
bit
of
explanation,
it's
all
dependent
upon
what
the
State
Fire
Marshal
will
agree
to.
Regarding
this.
The
danger
you
have
the
longer
you
run
past
January,
the
1st
of
2023,
is
that
the
state
Marsh
Fire
Marshal
can
come
in
and
impose
different
regulations
on
you,
so
that
that's
the
concern
here,
at
least
under
the
statute-
and
this
is
a
new
revision
to
TCA
68
120
101,
which
goes
into
effect
specifically
on
January,
the
1st
of
2023.
A
I'll
take
that
as
a
Maybe
Mr
Anderson
I
I've
been
spent
too
much
time
with
lawyers.
These
days,
Mr
Anderson
I
see
you
want
to
say
something,
but
I
also
wouldn't
mind
if
fire
could
give
us
your
two
cents
and
Mr
Rucker.
If
you
would
like
to
give
your.
K
Two
cents
I
was
actually
going
to
to
tell
you
that
I'm
going
to
meet
with
these
two
individuals
at
the
conclusion
of
this
meeting.
Okay
and
we'll
have
a
better
answer
for
you:
they're
not
prepared
to
address
this
body
right
now.
But
if
you
will
give
me
chairman
and
councilwoman
just
a
couple
of
hours,
we
can
tell
you
how
long
we
need
for
a
deferral.
K
D
No,
no
it's
this
cough
I
can't
like
gross
out
this
whole
room
item
c
as
well.
The
international
fuel
gas
code
I
believe
that's
one,
that
the
city
council
received
a
redlined
email
about
some
inconsistencies,
with
the
way
that
things
were
actually
installed
compared
to
what
the
legislation
would
or
the
ordinance
would
then
require.
D
So
if
you
all
don't
have
a
copy
of
that
I'm
sure
that
Nicole
can
forward
it
to
you.
It
was.
It
was
very
clear
and
specific.
He
said
this
is
not
how
you
install
this
stuff,
so
we
wouldn't
want
to
make
those
mistakes
overall,
as
many
of
you
know,
and
I've
looped
in
several
folks
within
the
administration.
My
concern
is
anything
that
we
can
do
to
be
very
thoughtful
about
the
cost.
To
produce
a
safe
unit
is
of
the
highest
importance,
so
I
recognize.
D
We
have
a
lot
of
things
to
balance
and,
as
you
all
know,
I
mean
it's
we're
not
just
talking.
When
we
talk
about
affordable
units,
we're
not
only
looking
at
the
at
the
regulations
for
sprinkles
or
regulation
for
for
driveways
or
whatever
it
might
be.
It
all
goes
together,
but
consequently
everything
has
to
move
forward
at
the
same
time
and
everything
has
to
move
toward
a
common
purpose.
D
You
know
the
fact
that
these
have
to
be
approved
and
in
place,
ideally
by
January
1.,
makes
me
feel
a
lot
like
our
Wastewater
education,
where
we
learned
about
it
at
the
very
last
minute,
and
it's
a
shame
that
we
didn't
have
this
a
month
prior
to
now,
so
that
we
could
be
deferring
and
and
not
have
to
worry
about
hustling
at
an
unnecessary
pace.
D
I
look
forward
to
what
you
all
are
able
to
do
in
the
interim
between
now
and
the
deferral
thanks.
H
K
This
this
knee
for
deferral,
only
came
to
our
attention
a
few
hours
ago
earlier
today.
So
it
is
my
hope
as
well
that
we
can
ask
for
a
two-week
deferral.
I
just
haven't
had
an
opportunity
to
meet
with
Bo
in
Dallas
and
others
about
that.
That's
why
I
just
need
a
few
more
hours.
Okay,
all
right,
I,
I,
hope
we
can
come
to
you
and
say
two
weeks,
but
if
it's
more
complicated
than
that,
we're
going
to
ask
for
January
10.
A
A
Okay,
any
other
questions
on
our
International
codes
in
item
G.
If
you'll
notice
on
your
agenda
is
not
part
of
that
grouping,
just
as
a
side
note,
moving
into
Economic
Development
mayor's
office
with
appointments
and
a
special
exceptions
permit
any
questions
on
that.
Council
I'll
watch
the
board
we'll
move
into
purchases.
Next,
if
no
questions.
A
I,
seeing
no
lights,
I
did
have
a
question
on
a
definition
under
Street
Maintenance
division
of
public
works
and
it
was
the
the
long
properties
in
parentheses
and
I.
I
read
that
as
a
specific
property
that
was
named
long
properties
and
I
did
get
clarification
from
the
city
that
that
is
a
a
description,
not
a
proper
name
of
a
property,
so
long
properties
are
I
think
were
commonly
referred
to
as
the
long
right-of-ways.
So
we
all
learned
something
every
single
day.
There's
yours
all
right.
A
A
Yes,
ma'am
and
I
have
one
too.
So,
let's
see
if
yours
is
the
same
as
mine,
you
have
the
four.
B
B
Has
already
set
a
precedent
on
before
there
was
a
need
for
a
special
exceptions.
Permit
that's.
M
B
M
G
M
Been
in
place
a
long
time
and
council
did
not
act
on
that
business
being
in
operation
through
like
this,
where
you
would
have
reviewed
it
Place
conditions
on
it.
We
do
not
have
that
because
that's
just
been
in
business.
That's
been
in
operation
for
so
long.
B
Okay,
so
here
here's
my
dilemma:
whatever
the
Palms,
whatever
restrict
you're
telling
me,
whatever
restrictions,
are
on
the
palms
operation,
The
Palms
ask
for
that.
B
G
B
B
M
B
M
It
does
there's
a
residentially
zone
property
that
is
close
to
this
site.
The
special
exception
permit
for
a
nightclub
does
allow
reduction
in
that
750
foot
buffer
by
Council
and
we
do
need
to
and
this
isn't
within
that
750
foot
buffer.
We
did
a
site
visit,
a
staff
member
to
the
site
visit
in
the
sites
vacant
and
appears
to
not
been
used
all
right
and.
B
J
M
A
For
a
vote
on
next
week,
thank
you.
My
question
was
in
relation
to
item
G,
but
Dr
Lambert
I'll
get
with
you.
Offline
I
was
just
curious
about
you,
the
item
under
Community
Health,
but
I'll
get
with
you
offline
man
moving
into
future
considerations.
If
there
are
no
further
questions
or
comments
on
the
December
6
proposed
agenda,
you
would
take
a
look
at
future
considerations.
A
Some
items
under
Public,
Works
Bill,
if
I
could,
are
you
still
in
the
room
there
you
are
you,
don't
don't
get
up,
don't
get
up,
I'm,
just
going
to
say
on
item
two:
that's
really
an
older
item
we
discussed
years
ago
to
clarify
to
council
there's
not
actually
a
project,
that's
in
queue
for
the
abandonment
of
that
old
sewer
line
that
ran
diagonally.
A
This
is
basically
cleaning
up
something
we
had
done
or
asked
for
several
years
ago
and
okay
just
want
to
make
sure
we
don't
yeah,
no
reason
to
come
up
and
clarify
that
I
think
we
just
handled
that
item.
Okay,
seeing
no
lights
under
future
considerations.
We
have
no
Department
reports.
We
will
have
two
committees
today:
parks
and
Public
Works
budget
and
finance,
and
because
Mr
Goldberg
is
going
to
be
leaving
us,
we
will
definitely
make
him
go
last
today.
I
I
Thank
you.
Can
you
read

please.

O
P
Let
me
first
make
a
little
vocabulary
check
if
I
may
that'll
smooth
our
discussion
I'm
going
to
use
the
word
parks
to
talk
about
this
and
when
I
say
Parks
I
hope
you
hear
that
I
mean
everything.
Your
department
of
parks
and
Outdoors
does
Recreation
special
events.
Arts
culture
planning,
I'm
going
to
use
Parks
the
same
way.
New
York
City
uses
it
just
to
make
this
easy
to
talk
about.
P
P
So
that
was
what
you
took
on
when
you
asked
us
to
do
this
and
the
Big
Challenge
amongst
it
all.
Is
this
question
and
the
big
questions
matter?
What
if
we
do
get
this
right?
Let's
think
aspirationally
what
if
we
do
build
the
most
livable
healthiest
city
in
North,
America
someone's
got
to
be
that
City.
Why
not
Chattanooga
and
I?
Think
we've
got
a
real
chance
to
do
that,
so,
first,
a
little
history
as
we
get
going.
Remember:
you're,
not
the
first
ones
to
sit
in
these
shoes
and
ask
these
questions.
P
The
history
of
parks
and
the
city
we
call
home
is
rather
remarkable
began
in
the
1890s
with
the
establishment
of
our
community's
first
parks
that
were
my
dedication
sites
and
monuments
to
the
Civil
War
battles
that
were
fought
here.
Then
we
had
the
creation
of
the
Nolan
plan,
which
was
the
first
idea
when
this
city
was
rapidly
growing
and
industrializing
about
what
green
spaces
would
mean
in
this
fast-growing
Community,
fast
forward
to
the
autocentric
era
of
our
town,
fast
forward
to
industrialization
and
then
a
moment.
P
You
all
know
better
than
me
at
the
famous
Walter
Cronkite
dirtiest
city,
in
America,
discussion
where
this
city
said
no
that
doesn't
have
to
be
our
Legacy.
We
don't
need
to
be
that
we
can
be
something
better.
That's
the
first
generation
we've
got
a
second
story:
y'all
we're
a
city
of
Jim
Crow.
While
those
stories
were
going
on,
there
were
individuals
of
our
community
who
were
not
allowed
to
enjoy
their
public
parks,
and
the
park
system
was
not
built
for
them.
P
It's
not
something
you
throw
garbage
and
junk
into,
but
the
idea
of
a
place
to
celebrate
and
it
pushed
forward
the
emergence
of
the
city
that
you
Steward
today
and
the
choices
you
have
as
a
counselor
are
fundamentally
different
today
than
you
would
have
had.
If
those
folks
hadn't
made
those
Investments
and
then,
if
we're
being
honest
and
I
hope
we
are
and
can
be
candid,
we
kind
of
stopped
there's,
there's
an
element
of
parks
in
the
park
story
here
in
Chattanooga,
where
yay
we
did
it.
We
checked
that
box.
P
Can
we
go
on
to
the
next?
Well,
the
city
didn't
stop
moving
y'all.
The
people
are
still
moving
here.
Kids
are
still
growing
up
here.
Birds
are
still
migrating
through
here
each
year
and
the
city
is
changing,
so
the
question
becomes
I
think
to
all
of
us.
What's
next,
what
is
next
for
our
community?
What's
next
for
what
we
need
today?
What
do
we
do
today
to
set
us
up
when
they're
300
000
people
that
called
Chattanooga
home
for
Success?
P
What's
the
Legacy,
we
leave
behind
the
pop
attempts
to
address
this
and
give
you
a
pathway
forward
with
some
rationality
and
some
predictability.
We
started
here
with
some
basic
philosophies
that
came
from
Council
the
one
Chattanooga
plan,
but
also
our
professionalism
and
what
we
heard
from
citizens.
These
are
really
The
Guiding
principles
of
the
park
system
and
what
we
think
it
should
mean
to
live
in
Chattanooga
Equity.
Everyone
has
access,
regardless
of
where
you
live.
What
ZIP
code
you
live
in
what
your
physical
ability,
what
your
emotional
state!
P
We
should
provide
you
with
great
access
to
Great
public
places,
because
the
benefits
benefit.
Everyone
next
is
quality.
Just
saying
you
have
a
park
isn't
enough!
If
it's
j,
it's
got
a
jangly
gem
and
a
dangerous
piece
of
metal
showing
that
ain't
quality
and
that
ain't
a
park
we
have
to
deliver
quality.
When
we
deliver
these
green
spaces
access,
can
you
actually
get
to
it
from
where
you
are
and
make
it
part
of
your
life?
P
We
live
in
a
special
place,
I
heard
council
member
coonrod
say
it
earlier:
we
ain't
got
a
copy
Atlanta,
we
can
be
ourselves
and
we've
got
some
specialness
here
that
we
can
build
on
and
we
don't
have
to
take
a
backseat
to
anyone.
How
do
we
Elevate
that
neighborhood
by
neighborhood,
instead
of
trying
to
do
these?
You
know
forms
that
you
just
copy
from
one
place
and
deploy
somewhere
else,
and
then
we
added
nature.
You
know
cities
aren't
devoid
of
the
stuff.
There
are
a
lot
of
four.
P
There
are
a
lot
of
Critters
that
share
this
space
with
us.
So
you're
going
to
hear
us
talk
a
lot
about
Parks
because
of
people
we
got
to
remember
those
places
are
home
for
a
lot
of
wildlife.
They
don't
have
voices,
so
we
have
to
be
their
voices
as
well
and
find
places
for
them
to
live,
and
the
reason
we
do
that
is
we
know.
Science
shows
us
more
time
in
nature
means
healthier
Lifestyles
for
everyone,
you
live
longer
and
you
live
healthier
and
we
live
somewhere
pretty
remarkable.
P
So
those
were
our
key
principles
from
that
emerge,
something
we
want
to
hold
on
to
and
I'm
pitching
out
to
you
all
for
your
your
consideration,
your
thoughtfulness.
This
is
the
plan's
vision
and
the
plans.
Vision
is
kind
of
a
statement
y'all
about
a
city
and
a
park
now
to
see
with
Parks,
rather
a
city
in
a
park.
That's
a
fundamental
shift.
That's
saying
a
different
value
set
is
at
work
here,
number
one
Equity.
Everyone
has
access
to
our
breathtaking
natural
series:
a
scenery
in
our
rich
and
authentic
cultural
heritage.
P
It's
accessible
enjoyable
to
all
that
touches
Arts,
how
we
bring
it
to
life
that
touches
the
voices,
how
they
experience
it
clean
and
beautiful
waterways.
They
made
me
pull
one
line
out:
I
wanted
to
say
swimmable
Waters
what,
if
all
of
our
Waters
were
swimmable?
That's
not
a
crazy
thought.
It's
not
too
much
to
ask
to
have
Waters
that
are
public
or
swimmable.
It's
happening
all
over
the
place.
I
pulled
swimmable
out,
but
I
have
to
provoke
you
all
every
now
and
then
iconic
signature
parks.
P
The
iconic
view
that
I
see
all
over
everyone's
headshots
when
are
on
these
Zoom
calls
are
always
of
Coolidge
Park,
looking
South
across
the
river.
Those
are
iconic
marks
about
what
our
city
can
be
and
how
we
deliver.
Those
signature
Parks
across
our
whole
city,
strikes
us
as
important,
authentic
and
welcoming
neighborhood
parks
y'all.
This
is
going
to
be
a
big
pivot.
We're
asking
you
all
to
consider,
rather
than
being
worried
about
making
the
cover
of
gardening
gun
or
outside
magazine.
P
What
if
we
worried
about
our
neighborhoods
first
and
we
built
them
block
by
block
neighborhood
by
neighborhood,
with
beautiful
neighborhood
parks
that
everyone
enjoys
that
feel
as
special
as
Coolidge?
It's
not
too
much
to
ask
these
are
fixable
things
and
then
the
greenway
and
blueway
system
it
knits
the
whole
city
together,
we've
seen
an
explosion
on
the
south,
chick
Trail
y'all
have
seen
it
in
in
Saint
Elmo,
with
the
extension
of
the
greenway
anywhere.
P
We
provide
these
Pathways
people
pick
them
up
and
because
we
live
in
the
Great
American
South,
we
can
use
them
most
of
the
Year.
Why?
Wouldn't
we
lean
into
that
as
well?
So
through
this,
we
did
a
bunch
of
Outreach
you
all
heard
from
I've
we've
met
with
each
one
of
y'all
individually
as
well.
Thank
you
for
the
time
you've
given
and
in
your
communities.
P
You
can
see
the
numbers
there
on
the
screen
and
I
applaud
a
kosher
and
Blythe
for
going
out
of
their
way
to
give
everyone
an
opportunity
to
talk
and
look
y'all.
This
isn't
about
the
people
that
are
already
in
the
Parks
not
really
worried
about
what
they
want.
If
you
wear
Lycra
and
have
two
percent
body
fat
and
make
that
look
good,
you're
going
to
be
heard,
okay,
you're
fine,
we
want
to
hear
from
everybody
in
our
community,
particularly
those
who
aren't
using
the
parks.
P
What
would
it
take
to
make
them
feel
welcome
to
make
them
make
fitness
health
and
wellness
part
of
their
life?
So
you
see
all
the
Outreach
we've
done.
I
dare
say
this
is
the
most
depthly
guided
public
engagement
process
in
terms
of
shaping
public
parks.
That's
been
done
in
the
city
and
here's
what
we've
heard?
Probably
what
you're
looking
for
new
news?
Well,
when
we
surveyed
them
and
we've
met
with
them,
62
percent
reply
that
they
use
their
local
parks
at
least
several
times
per
month,
and
the
top
three
things
they're
doing
in
the
Parks.
P
They're,
probably
not
a
surprise
to
you
all.
Maybe
they
are
61
percent,
like
the
paved
walking
trails
41
like
the
walking
and
biking
trails
and
27
percent,
like
playgrounds,
people
like
to
do
average
things
in
average
parks
on
average
days,
and
that's
a
pretty
special
thing
to
us.
When
we
ask
your
citizens
and
your
residents
to
look
ahead
and
said,
what
could
you
do
today,
25
years
from
now
that
you'd
want
to
leave
behind
as
a
legacy?
P
They
said
environmental,
health
and
natural
resources
that
are
accessible
and
enjoyable
by
everyone,
High
connected
Greenways,
a
healthier
Community,
physically,
emotionally,
socially
and
then
47
nearly
50
said
more
neighborhood
parks.
We
asked
about
barriers,
you've
got
to
ask,
what's
good
and
what's
bad
simultaneously,
all
nothing
jumped
out
as
a
surprise
to
us,
because
signage
is
kind
of
a
wreck.
If
you've
noticed
around.
P
We
then
didn't
then
asked
them
what
they
would
rate
our
Park
systems
as
and
the
citizens
just
Community
gave
their
public
park
system
a
solid
b-minus.
Now
I'm
gonna
get
a
little
preachy,
a
B
minus
in
my
family,
when
I
grew
up,
wasn't
cutting.
It
was
asked
to
do
a
little
bit
more,
but
we
just
didn't
stop
there.
P
We
brought
in
analysts
from
Across
the
Nation
who
maintained
Park
systems
and
Design
park
systems
from
Vancouver
to
LA
and
all
over
the
place
and
had
them
do
an
evaluation,
including
visits
to
each
one
of
our
individual
Park
sites.
We
then
married
that
with
our
Park
staff
and
did
what
we
did
consider
our
first
full
Park
audit,
where
we
got
in
it
and
kicked
the
tires
and
said
what
have
we
really
got
here?
Y'all
and
the
grade
from
that
team
was
the
park
system.
P
That's
functioning
at
about
a
sea
level
saying
that
we
can
do
more
and
we
can
do
better,
because
the
question
is:
if
it's
not
a
quality,
are
people
really
going
to
want
to
use
it?
The
next
analysis
that
you
asked
us
to
compare
is
you
know
where
do
these
Parks
serve
and
who
do
they
serve?
We've
got
layers
and
layers
of
maps
sitting
on
our
shelves
that
you'll
see
later
I'm
not
going
to
try
to
do
everything
all
at
once.
I
want
to
give
you
a
quick
snapshot.
P
We
have
about
six
acres
per
thousand
residents
right
now
in
Chattanooga,
the
national
average
is
10
acres
per
thousand
residents,
so
we're
actually
behind
on
Park
Acres,
which
surprises
a
lot
of
people
for
the
city
like
ours
that
takes
pride
in
its
public
parks.
We
have
about
900
Acres
a
day
to
fill
today's
Gap.
We
need
about
644
additional
Acres,
how
those
are
deployed
I
can
get
into
the
weeds
we'll
do
that
later.
P
Can
we've
got
a
heck
of
a
Down
payment
that
we
can
make
if
we
deploy
it
activate
them
and
to
choose
to
deploy
them
in
that
way.
Thirty
five
percent
of
our
residents
live
within
a
10-minute
walk
of
a
Trailhead
or
a
public
park.
The
national
average
is
about
55
percent,
deploying
some
of
that
550
acres
is
going
to
help
us
very
quickly
make
life
better
for
people
in
very
real
time.
P
The
solution,
then,
to
our
problem
in
our
shortcomings,
becomes
Deployable
on
something
you've
never
been
presented
with
and
that
believe
it
or
not
is
a
rational,
systemic
public
park
plan.
Parks
work
just
like
sewers
Bill's
here
so
I'll
make
sure
I
use
the
wrong
words,
but
I
think
sewers
have
collectors
and
force
Mains
and
big
pipes
that
become
small
pipes.
Parks
work
the
exact
same
way,
so
that
you're
not
always
responding
to
what
a
citizen
says.
Oh
my
gosh
I
would
like
this
here
here
here.
P
P
These
are
images
of
some
neighborhood
parks,
both
here
in
Chattanooga
and
outside
of
it,
the
idea
being
we
take
our
existing
Parks
first
and
upgrade
them
the
point
is
we
can
ask
our
existing
parks
to
do
more
and
do
it
better
and
deploy
very
quick
resources
and
that
becomes
the
foundation
of
our
Park
system.
So
the
metaphor
I've
used
before
some
of
y'all
is
maybe
Chattanooga's.
Next
move
in
public
parks
isn't
the
home
run.
Maybe
it's
just
a
lot
of
singles.
P
We
just
lay
down
single
after
single
after
single
these
great
neighborhood
parks
that
people
can
walk
to
and
we
open
in
Rapid
order
and
deploy
them
in
systems.
Now
that
has
politics
who
gets
first,
who
gets
in
line
all
that
totally
understand
that
it's
our
job
to
bring
you
all
plan,
that's
rational,
defensible,
Democratic,
honors
equity
and
our
other
commitments,
but
there's
a
way
to
sequentially
March
through
these
things
and
get
them
done
in
a
way
that
makes
a
difference.
P
You
don't
do
that,
though,
at
the
cost
of
our
iconic
signature
Parks,
you
do
an
and
because
these
parks
are
what
really
drive
a
lot
of
Community
Pride,
but
they
also
drive
a
heck
of
a
lot
of
economic
activity
and
keep
us
a
thriving
economy
that
has
resources
to
do
other
things.
We
want
to
do
so,
taking
these
parks
and
helping
humanize
them,
making
sure
we're
advancing
them
as
well,
because
they're,
not
just
little
dinosaurs
that
were
built
once
and
they're
done.
P
They
have
to
evolve
as
well,
and
we
have
to
ask
the
signature
parks
that
we
know
so
well
to
do
even
more,
so
it's
an
and
there
to
keep
them
fresh
and
new.
Think
about
a
theme
park
theme
parks
always
opening
up
a
new
ride.
Isn't
it
Disney
just
didn't
stop
with
Epcot?
They
hope
open
up
a
new
ride
every
now
and
then
because
they
want
to
keep
you
coming
back
parks
and
public
Landscapes
and
cities,
for
this
matter
have
to
do
the
exact
same
thing
and
we've
got
a
pathway
to
get
you
there.
P
The
next
is
Urban
Ecology
a
new
space
for
Chattanooga
we're
these
Critters
that
you
see
here
on
the
left
all
rely
on
our
city,
180
Birds,
move
through
here
every
year.
Our
people
also
deserve
stewardship
and
care.
We
lend
we
sit
here
and
we're
standing
here
on
First
Nations
land.
That's
been
here
for
12
000
years,
how
we
honor
and
Steward
that
land
connection
is
fundamentally
important.
Finally,
part
of
the
Chattanooga
experience
how
we
tell
the
story
of
our
African-American
brothers
and
sisters
who
died,
who
suffered,
how
we
honor
those
stories
in
this
landscape
matters.
P
How
we
honor
the
new
stories,
our
new
immigrants
that
are
coming
to
the
community,
to
make
them
feel
welcome
in
terms
of
cultural
sensitivity,
also
matters.
The
good
news
is
this:
was
this
is
what
parks
do
they
do
it
better
than
any
other
place?
So
we
want
to
provide
you
with
a
plan
for
it
on
cultural
and
ecological
stewardship,
with
the
big
idea
being
the
more
of
this
exposure,
the
more
access
you
have,
the
healthier
and
the
better
your
life
is,
and
we
can
back
that
up
so
we're
going
to
bring
you
a
rational
plan.
P
I
won't
waste
your
time
reading
you
through
all
this,
but
this
is
how
you're
going
to
be
able
to
Think
Through
Your
Park
system,
now
you're
going
to
be
able
to
think
through
it
as
a
system
from
special
use
facilities
that
do
individual
things.
We
want
them
to
do
to
services
that
we
ask
neighborhood
parks
and
things
like
that
to
do
that,
serve
everyone,
and
we
want
to
give
you
a
road
map
forward
that
allows
you
to
have
a
spreadsheet.
That
says
this
is
what
we're
knocking
out
this
year
this
year.
P
This
is
what
we're
knocking
out
the
following
years
and
you're
able
to
go
to
your
constituents
and
say
these
are
the
improvements
that
we're
going
to
make
and
I
want
to
pause
for
a
second
I
know.
A
number
of
you
all
had
a
chance
to
come
see:
council
member
Noel
was
there
to
have
Mitchell
silver
in
town,
and
it
was
such
a
delight
for
those
of
us
who
are
able
to
spend
time
with
Mitchell.
It's
him
hugging.
P
The
tree
on
the
left
was
the
New
York
City
Park,
commissioner
and
Mitchell
was
brought
to
town
to
help
us
think
through
our
green
spaces,
and
the
interesting
thing
is
New
York.
Now
New
York's
different,
it's
big,
it's
scalable,
I
get
it,
but
but
the
fundamental
story
was
right:
he
says
you
don't
go.
You
don't
ask
people
to
come
to
you
with
what
they
want
in
their
green
spaces.
You
go
to
them
and
you
go
to
them
with
money,
and
you
say
we
have
x
million
dollars
to
make
this
Improvement
in
your
neighborhood.
P
What
do
you
want
and
doing
that
in
New
York
allowed
them
to
add
300
million
dollars
in
new
parks?
Every
year,
for
eight
years,
the
numbers
are
big,
but
we
thought
the
principles
are
important,
that
you
lean
into
that
specialness
of
place
and
that
it's
okay
to
smile
and
have
some
Joy,
because
this
is
the
fun
work.
You
all
have
a
lot
of
hard
work.
P
We
kind
of
do
want
to
be
the
department
of
fun
and
care
and
we're
not
going
to
be
the
department,
that's
scared
to
hug
and
we're
not
going
to
be
afraid
to
hug
you
when
we
come
out
at
these
Park
openings,
either
I've
hugged
councilmember
Hester
at
a
park
opening
and
want
to
do
a
whole
lot
more
of
that
going
forward
and
Mr
Mitchell
silver
reminded
us
of
that
story,
and
that
means
that
we
have
to
have
staff
that
can
take
care
of
it.
P
I
don't
know
if
y'all
have
ever
had
a
project
come
to
you
from
our
department
where
we
said
this
is
the
maintenance
statement
it's
going
to
take
to
maintain
this
at
a
high
quality
each
year
going
forward.
So
when
South
chick
opened,
there
probably
should
have
been
three
or
four
staff
members
that
were
hired
to
take
care
of
it.
You
don't
raise
a
kid
and
then
expect
a
kid
just
take
care
of
themselves.
You
apply
resources
and
plan
for
it.
Our
Parks
have
to
be
the
same
way.
So
anything
we
bring
to
you
all.
P
We've
got
to
tell
you
what
it's
going
to
take
to
maintain
it
at
a
high
level
and
not
just
have
thoughts
and
prayers
that
it's
going
to
be
a
pretty
part
going
forward.
So
look
for
us
to
bring
you
a
very
disciplined
approach,
so
you
can
make
a
decision
on.
Can
we
sustain
maintenance
and
care
of
this
before
we
take
on
something
new
as
well?
P
All
those
white
spots
are
underserved
parts
of
our
community
that
don't
have
park
access
and
are
hurting
us
in
terms
of
walkability
and
health
and
then
set
aside
land
in
anticipation
and
development
to
come,
whether
we
build
it
out
or
not-
it's
really
secondary,
but
the
council
members
that
are
going
to
be
sitting
here
in
2050.
If
we
want
to
give
them
options
going
forward,
they
better
have
some
land
that
they
can
play
with
or
they're
going
to
be.
Boxed
out.
P
Number
two
continue
to
invest
in
what
we
call
our
signature,
Parks,
those
iconic
Landscapes
that
shape
our
community
that
make
the
front
newspaper
that
allow
our
whole
Community
to
come
together,
keep
them
fresh
and
new.
It
has
to
be
an
and
Mitchell
silver
said
it
to
us
when
he
was
here.
He's
like
you.
Do
your
neighborhood
parks,
but
you
also
do
your
Central
Parks
as
well.
You
have
to
do
both.
They
both
serve
different
functions,
number
three,
safe,
Greenways
and
trailheads.
We
want
to
make
measurable
progress,
we're
at
35
percent.
P
Now
we're
going
to
bring
you
a
plan
that
moves
us
to
55
percent
of
our
community
meeting
that
walking
threshold
to
bring
us
into
the
national
average
number
four
design
and
Urban
Ecology
system
where
Wildlife
trees,
plants
healthiness,
is
part
of
everybody's
life.
Regardless
of
what
ZIP
code
you
live
in,
Chattanooga
that
we
just
don't
pave
over
this
place
and
call
it
Paradise.
We
do
something
a
little
bit
different
here:
number
five,
rapid,
Investments,
speed,
speed,
speed,
urgency,
urgency,
urgency
to
create
new
Partnerships
and
new
improvements
where
we
can
in
our
most
hurting
neighborhoods.
P
Let's
deliver
results
today
that
help
people
and
let's
make
those
Park
sites
better
quickly
to
serve
those
who
most
need
them.
Who
may
not
have
the
time
or
money
to
drive
to
the
Smokies
for
a
vacation
in
the
summer,
but
depend
on
that
neighborhood
park
to
be
their
Smokies,
develop
that
pathway
forward
and
then
number
six
come
to
you
and
and
work
collaboratively
with
everyone
to
have
the
adequate
resources
to
sustain
it.
Just
don't
build
stuff
and
say:
there's
a
ribbon
cut.
P
We're
done
understand
that
the
worst
a
park
should
look
is
the
day
it
opens.
If
we
do
our
job
right,
it
looks
better
every
day
after
it
opens
going
forward.
The
pathway
forward
is
we're
still
on
target
y'all
to
hit
the
February
2023
delivery
to
you
for
your
adoption
and
for
incorporation
within
our
larger
land
use
plans.
P
But
the
key
here
if
I
leave
you
with
anything
else
is
this
is
a
key
pivot
where
we
say
neighborhood
parks
matter
and
we're
going
to
build
this
community
neighborhood
by
neighborhood,
honoring,
the
authenticity
and
the
values
of
each
one
of
those
neighborhoods
going
forward.
With
that
crazy
idea,
we
have
in
Chattanooga
that
we
actually
are
trying
to
do
this,
one
Chad
and
a
good
thing
for
real
that
we
think
everyone
deserves
that
sort
of
great
access.
P
I
A
Scott
I
want
to
thank
you
and
your
team
because
the
energy
you
have
brought
into
and
assembling
this
team
is
contagious
and
I
know
since
you've
come
on
board
and
since
the
and
everyone
in
in
your
on
your
working,
alongside
of
you,
you've
expressed
a
great
interest
in
the
East
Brainerd
and
District
4
area.
I
have
one
Park
and
I'm
the
most
dense,
smallest
footprint
of
all
nine
districts.
After
2025,
we
will
shrink
again
and
we
will
still
have
the
most
population.
I've
got
one
part
yeah,
but
what
I
wanted
to
say?
A
Thank
you
for
in
that
regard,
is
you're
looking
out
and
reaching
out
to
me
and
we've
I've
helped
make
some
connections
for
you
in
possible
Acquisitions
for
future
when
we're
talking
about
expanding
and
there's
a
great
opportunity
in
East
Brainerd.
Hopefully
that
will
come
to
fruition
and
on
another
note
working
alongside
the
people
of
District
Four
to
have
the
first
outdoor
pickleball
courts.
A
You
know
I'm
going
to
keep
hammering
on
that,
because,
if
you're
not
into
this
sport,
I'm
telling
you
pay
attention,
it's
sweeping
the
world
right
now
and
we
are
way
behind
so
and
and
so
that's
a
matters
place
and
I'm
so
excited
about
it.
People
online
are
excited
about
that
and
the
attention
that
you
and
your
team
have
brought
to
district
four.
So
thank
you
for
that.
A
In
that
conversation
I
wanted
to
know
if
you
could
talk
a
little
bit
about
increasing
our
Partnerships
with
agencies
and
Foundations
in
in
the
overall
pop
plan,
and
if
you
could
touch
on
that
just
a
little
bit,
yeah.
P
There's
a
lot
to
say
there
one
is:
we
have
to
adopt
a
spirit
of
what
we're
calling
radical
collaboration
Everyone's,
an
ally
in
this,
and
we
can't
do
it
all
so,
be
it
a
Boys
and
Girls
Club
be
at
the
National
Park
Service,
be
it
a
foundation,
bring
us
your
time,
your
treasure,
your
talents
and
we're
going
to
figure
out
a
way
to
make
partnering
with
us
easier,
while
also
protecting
the
public
interest.
There's
a
transparency
requirement.
P
We
have
as
well
to
make
sure
we
get
out
of
it,
but
we
want
to
open
our
arms
into
that
space
and
ask
what
are
we
doing
and
how
are
we
doing
it?
To
wit,
you
know
you
start
first
going
what's
your
job?
Is
our
job
provide
Recreation
programming
for
everyone?
It
probably
isn't
they're,
probably
partners
that
are
better
suited
to
do
that.
So
let's
have
the
ability
to
step
back
and
say:
y'all
can
fill
that
role
and
we
can
fill
a
different
role.
P
The
Pop's
going
to
take
a
holistic
View
at
that
and
recognize
that
we
all
have
a
place
and
a
role
to
play
in
there.
I
think
there's
a
big
open-ended
question.
Mr
chairman
and
the
pop
will
open
the
dialogue
to
it.
But
what
should?
What
is
the
appropriate
engagement
between
our
colleagues
at
the
county
in
terms
of
the
park
systems
they
operate
within
us?
Councilmemberly
actually
has
a
county
park
in
her
District,
which
is
kind
of
crazy.
P
So
we
we
need
to
look
at
how
we
deploy
those
assets
most
efficiently
instead
of
duplicating
as
well,
but
that'll
be
our
lens.
The
Park
acreage
number
I'm
glad
you
brought
that
up.
I
want
to
make
a
note
of
that.
You
know
we're
down.
That's
six
acres
per
1000
and
10
is
normal.
Well,
even
with
that
number
we're
counting
land
in
the
Nash
owned
by
the
National,
Park,
Service
and
TVA
here
within
our
calculation.
P
A
But
can
you
explain
a
little
bit
more
that
relationship
we
have
with
them
and
maybe
even
some
opportunities
that
we
may
be
amiss
I.
P
Think
there's
a
great
opportunity
there,
let's
just
level
set
that
that
Enterprise
health
is
by
whatever
measure
you
want
to
use
here,
the
second
or
third
largest
urban
park
in
the
state
of
Tennessee.
It's
kind
of
surprising
when
we
think
of
it
that
way,
it
is
joint
owned
by
the
county
in
the
city.
You
are
correct.
It
is
entirely
programmed
by
the
county
for
recreation.
P
The
city
has
no
engagement
with
enterprise
South
right
now
in
terms
of
recreational
programming,
as
we
project
forward
about
what
a
Chattanooga
of
300
000
people
looks
like
I
think
we
all
have
to
look
in
that
mirror
and
go
wow
growth
feels
like
it's
moving
that
way.
What
that
site
is
asked
to
respond
to
I.
Think
is
a
discussion
we
need
to
have
very
thoughtfully
about.
Is
it
a
preserve
which
it
is
now
majority?
But
do
we
ask
it
and
ask
our
colleagues
at
the
county?
Does
it
have
Active
Sports
active
Recreation?
P
Does
it
have
Library?
Are
there
other
functions
we
can
lean
into
because
that's
a
green
space
bank
for
us,
so
we
think
it
should
go
into
the
system.
The
pop
speaks
to
it
within
the
service
level,
thinking
it
has
to
be
a
part
of
the
solution
and
we're
gifted
to
have
it,
but
the
exact
form
in
fashion
I
think
is
a
broader
discussion.
P
F
Wrong,
thank
you,
chair
Scott
I
just
want
to
thank
you
for
acknowledging
the
history
within
our
parks,
and
we
all
know
that
you
know
Green
space
is
in
our
Parks.
It
improves
the
public
health
of
our
community.
You
know
I'm
a
big
advocate
of
parks
and
we
like
I,
totally
agree
that
we
should
have
access
to
Parks
all
across
the
city
of
Chattanooga
and
I'm.
Just
gonna
be
candid
with
you
to
have
you
know
a
white
man
present.
F
Inequities,
the
racism
that's
been
means
a
lot
to
me.
You
haven't
been
afraid
to
speak
to
what
it
is.
You
didn't
come
up
here
and
try
to
put
a
Band-Aid
on
it
and
try
to
give
us
this
glamor
shot
like
oh
just
downtown.
No,
you
hit
some
pain
points
that
a
lot
of
people
refuse
to
address
and
continue
to
overlook,
and
you
know
not
really
want
to
talk
about
it.
F
So
I
appreciate
that
I
really
do
because
we
do
know
the
inequities
of
a
and,
if
we're
not
willing
to
address
it
and
we're
saying
that
with
the
one
Chattanooga
strategy
like
this
part
of
it
is
being
honest
about,
what's
been
happening
in
our
city
and
that
this
investment,
the
lack
of
it,
that's,
been
happening
and
the
Discrimination
of
it
in
our
communities
and
also
how
black
people
have
been
disproportionately
displaced
even
in
certain
areas.
F
So
I
appreciate
you
highlighting
again
I
can't
thank
you
enough,
but
I
am
looking
forward
to
the
movement
to
see
what
happens
in
all
of
our
districts
to
make
sure
that
everybody
have
access
to
Great
parks
where
families
can
come
and
and
not
just
because
I
live
in
a
black
community,
so
located
to
black
people
like
Parks
should
be
accessible
and
diverse
of
all
groups
of
people.
We
should
feel
comfortable
with
going
at
any
part
of
this
County
and
feel
comfortable
and
safe
with
being
there.
So
thank
you
again,
I
appreciate
you.
B
I
loved
your
report.
I
am
in
a
neighborhood
that
has
very
limited
access
to
Parks,
so
we
have
two
two
neighborhood
well,
maybe
two
or
three
neighborhood
parks
that
we
had
an
interesting
conversation.
Some
people
in
in
one
of
the
neighborhoods
called
I,
guess
it
was
your
department
about
a
park
in
our
area
about
wanting
to
do
more
plantings
and
stuff
and
got
the
person
that
answered
the
phone
didn't
know
where
the
park
was.
B
This
was
just
two
weeks
ago
and
when
they
finally
found
it
said,
oh
yeah,
that's
one
of
our
orphan
parks
and
I
thought
you
don't
have
a
swing
set
in
it.
The
reason
is,
they
don't
have
a
swing
set,
so
it
it
may
be
that
your
idea
about
diversity
in
Parks.
My
your
staff
might
want
to
understand
that
too.
B
So.
I'd
share
the
budget
and
finance
committee
and,
as
I
was
looking
at.
All
of
this
I
saw
a
lot
of
dollars
and
I
applaud.
That
I
would
like
very
much
because
sometimes
our
views
haven't
been
to
finance
things
that
are
the
ascetics
that
make
us
healthy
yeah.
So
I
would
like
very
much
when
you
make
your
presentation
to
also
talk
about
dollars.
You
have
to
remember.
B
The
council
only
gets
the
vetted
version
from
Administration
and
doesn't
get
to
think
further
Beyond
I'm
putting
in
a
terrible
spot
I
know,
but
many
of
us
are
dedicated
to
Parks
across
the
city
and
would
like
to
know
what
that
real
tab
is
to
do
a
quality
job
and
then
how
we
can
be
part,
because
the
finals
say
so
for
the
budget
is
us
how
we
can
be
part
of
making
the
decision.
B
We
can't
do
that
if
we're
not
given
options,
if
we're
just
given
one
version
of
the
budget,
that's
been
vetted
so
I,
don't
think.
Well,
you
may
get
in
a
lot
of
trouble,
I
don't
know,
but
I,
don't
think
so
I'd
very
much
like
it
to
be
our
choice
in
how
and
you
can't
do
that
without
having
a
full
deck
of
information.
So
if
you
please
would
do
that
Scott
I
would
really
appreciate
it
and
I
think
my
colleagues
would
as
well
yeah.
P
The
Administration
has
directed
me
to
bring
that
full
number
to
you
and
it's
not
scary.
You
know
we're
like
get
it
all
out
there.
Councilmember
Henderson
and
I
have
had
discussions.
I'm
gonna
get
in
trouble.
Now
the
early
deferred
maintenance
number
I
have
not
for
not
for
Inc,
yet
is
179
million
dollars
in
deferred
maintenance?
P
Now
we
didn't
get
into
this
hole
in
one
election
cycle
to
five
years
of
some,
rather
chronic
disinvestment,
y'all
we're
not
gonna
get
out
of
it
in
a
chunk,
so
our
team
is
already
working
on
the
spreadsheets
to
bring
you
a
manageable
elephant.
You
can
eat
bite
by
bite,
but
by
the
same
token,
we
think
we
owe
the
citizens
measurable,
tangible,
visible
progress,
not
words
and.
B
We
were
in
the
same
position
with
our
our
streets
and
Paving,
and
we
started
out
42
million
dollars
in
debt
which
by
now
is
much
greater
than
that,
and
so
we're
not
afraid
of
the
numbers.
We
just
need
to
know
what
they
are.
So
thank
you
very
much.
I
You
go
to
council,
let
me
say
this
Scott.
Let
me
say
this
publicly.
Thank
you
for
your
energy,
your
passion,
your
level
of
professionalism,
your
quest
to
elevate
the
chat
marks.
I
also
I,
want
to
thank
you
for
your
Noble
vision
of
a
city
and
a
part
neighborhoods
do
matter.
Thank
you.
I
At
this
time
we
conclude
parks
and
Public
Public
Works.
Let's
go
to
finance.
B
Call
to
order
the
budget
and
finance
committee
meeting
may
I
have
a
motion
on
the
minutes.
Please.
Thank
you.
I
gather
there's
no
one
opposed.
Thank
you
very
much
Brent
couple
of
words
before
you
go
into
this
fee
structure,
stuff
and
they're
all
they're.
All
thanks.
Thanks
for
us
receiving
all
the
finance
status
reports
as
you
leave,
and
also
the
investment
reports,
thank
you
for
sending
them
to
all
my
colleagues
at
this
point,
I've
received
no
questions
but
to
keep
us
up
to
Snuff
on
what's
going
on.
B
Thank
you
very,
very
much
I
appreciate
it.
It
lets
us
know
how
we
stand
so
that
we
can
make
knowledgeable
decisions.
A
personal
thank
you.
You've
been
great
to
work
with
your
common
sense.
Your
straightforwardness
has
been
a
pleasure
for
me
as
chair
of
the
budget
and
finance
committee
for
us
to
spend
a
numeral
meetings
together.
Talking
thinking,
planning
strategizing.
All
of
that
in
respectful
way
has
been
terrific
I've
really
enjoyed
it.
I
will
miss
you
very
very
much,
but
no
I
can
always
call
the
University
yelling
and
screaming
right
if
I.
G
B
God
guess
what
they're
doing
now
Brett?
What
do
I
do
anyway,
I
value,
your
friendship
too.
So
thank
you.
So
the
fees
I'm
going
to
turn
it
over
to
you
and
yeah
I'm
sure
you're,
going
to
give
the
rationale
for
all
of
that
and
then
talk
about
the
fees
themselves.
So
it's
yours.
Thank.
L
You
and
thank
you
for
the
kind
words
this
will
be
way
more
boring
than
what
Scott
presented
so
bear
with
me
from
time
to
time.
We
present
fee
changes
to
the
city.
L
Historically,
most
of
those
have
been
regarding
rental
fees,
for
parks
and
City
facilities
and
usage
fees
at
pools
and
those
sorts
of
things,
and
also
from
time
to
time.
There
are
fee
changes
presented
from
the
ldo
office
for
Land
Development
type
fees.
So
what
I
have
prepared
and
I?
So
all
of
you
have
a
draft
three
draft
ordinances
in
your
inboxes,
as
well
as
a
copy
of
these
slides,
but
three
ordinances
will
are
scheduled
to
come
onto
the
agenda
on
December
13th.
L
The
first
one
is
for
chapter
chapter
26,
which
is
the
the
fees
for
events,
rentals
and
usage
of
Chattanooga
Parks,
community
centers
and
recreational
facilities.
Chapter
10
is
related
to
fee
schedules,
primarily
the
ldo
deals
with
permits,
moving
buildings,
Demolition
and
then
other
development
related
fees.
And
then
we
have
just
some
minor
changes
for
chapters
14,
19,
22.5
and
27,
which
are
all
related
to
permits
for
electrical
gas,
mechanical
and
Plumbing.
So
chapter
26
is
where
I'm
going
to
start.
L
We
did
get
input
from
the
two
primary
departments
that
have
these
fees,
which
is
Community,
Development
and
parks
and
Outdoors.
We
met
with
both
departments
and
and
had
a
lot
of
back
and
forth
on
what
changes
are
were
needed
and
you
know
why
they
were
needed.
One
of
the
primary
things
we
wanted
to
accomplish
with
this
change
is
to
really
simplify
the
fee
structure
and
make
sure
that
they're,
understandable
for
the
general
public
they're
easy
to
administer
and
it
gets
rid
of.
L
L
On
the
other
hand,
we're
increasing
fees
for
private
use
of
facilities
so
to
Scott's
Point
earlier
we
have
great
parks
and
we
want
the
public
to
be
able
to
enjoy
those.
But
we
also
realize
that
people
want
to
rent
these
for
private
occasions
and
take
those
out
of
the
stock
for
for
the
general
public
at
any
given
time.
So
we
want
to
make
sure
that
rental
fees
reflect
the
usage
of
public
spaces
and
eliminating
others
from
being
able
to
use
those
for
a
given
period
of
time
and
then.
L
Finally,
some
of
these
will
reflect
some
inflationary
adjustments
that,
basically
they
just
haven't
been
adjusted
in
quite
a
while.
So
I'm
gonna
go
through
each
section
of
chapter
26
before
moving
into
chapter
10.
for
municipal
Parks,
again
reorganizing
and
simplifying
the
fee
structure
is,
is
one
of
our
primary
goals
to
do
that.
We've
grouped
parks
in
three
categories
within
the
chapter
signature
Parks,
which
is
the
ones
you
would
think
of
Ross's
Landing
Coolidge
Park
Renaissance
Park.
We
added
Miller
Park
as
a
signature
park.
L
It
was
previously
in
a
different
chapter
or
a
different
section
of
chapter
26.
It
was
way
back
in
section
58,
we're
moving
it
to
this
section,
I
think
that
should
say
26
23
by
the
way
typo
up
there,
specialty
Parks
we'll
go
through
what
is
included
there
in
the
neighborhood
park,
so
make
it
really
simple
to
to
set
fee
structures
for
those
three
different
types
of
parks
for
Signature
Parks.
L
The
primary
changes
we're
making
are
not
fee
related
we're
keeping
the
the
fee,
the
rental
fees,
the
way
they
are,
but
we
are
changing
the
how
we
Define
the
categories
right
now.
The
categories
are
category
one
and
two
are
defined
by
event
type
versus
event
size.
We
think
it
makes
more
sense
to
to
use
criteria
based
on
the
event
size,
that's
based
on
the
number
of
participants
that
also
aligns
with
the
chairman,
Ledford
Can.
It
can
attest.
L
L
The
next
thing
is
we
remove
fees
for
City
Services
from
this
chapter,
and
that
was
like
per
hour
charge
for
Public
Works
employees
per
hour
charge
for
a
police
officer
those
types
of
things.
The
reason
we
want
to
remove
those
from
this
chapter
is
about
because
there
will
be
an
ordinance
presented
to
you
all.
L
There
will
be
a
special
events,
ordinance
which
is
needed,
especially
as
we
bring
in
a
new
software
system
for
Park,
rentals
and
those
sorts
of
things,
but
I
know,
parks
and
Outdoors
has
some
some
great
ideas
about
how
to
make
the
special
events
process
better
as
well.
So
we
remove
those
here
and
they
will
be
in
that
ordinance
and
then
we
did
add
one
fee
for
event,
setup
and
tear
down
for
large
events
which
just
wasn't
there
wasn't
anything
in
the
in
the
ordinance
for
that
are
in
the
code.
L
For
that
some
some
of
the
few
changes
we've
done
with
signature,
Parks,
Renaissance
Park,
we've
added
a
new
fee
for
small
Park
grounds,
rental,
and
this
is
to
accommodate
small
group
rentals,
there's
really
not
anything
at
Renaissance,
Park,
Outdoors,
the
you
know,
a
small
group
could
rent
there's
some
the
larger
categories,
but
this
would
be
a
100
rental
for
smaller
groups,
also
The
Pavilion
at
Renaissance
Park.
L
We
added
a
deposit
because
there
was
not
one
listed
and
we
also
increased
the
daily
rate
by
fifty
dollars
per
day,
but
we
also
greatly
simplified
the
structure
instead
of
a
bunch
of
different
tiers
and
this
many
hours
and
that
many
hours
and
those
sorts
of
things
at
Coolidge
Park.
The
only
changes
we
made
were
for
Walker
Pavilion
and
for
the
carousel
party
room
we
added
deposits
because
they
were
not
listed.
L
We
also
increased
the
hourly
rate
by
15
per
hour,
which
hasn't
changed
in
quite
a
while
and
then
simplified
the
fee
structure
for
those
rentals
as
well,
and
all
of
this
you'll
see
all
this
in
the
draft
ordinance
that
you
have
which,
by
the
way,
is
being
formatted
into
the
normal
ordinance
format
to
hit
the
agenda
next
week
for
specialty
Parks.
Again,
we
wanted
to
make
sure
we
simplify
the
fee
structure
and
then
categorize
the
fees,
the
fees
based
on
size
of
event.
L
Just
like
we're
doing
for
Signature
parks
for
specialty
Parks,
you
have
lower
fees
than
you
do
for
Signature
parks
and
those
Parks
include
the
grounds
of
blue
goose
hollow
and
then
the
large.
What
I
would
call
Area
Parks
like
East
Lake,
Park,
Greenway,
Farm,
Park,
Heritage
Park,
the
Martin
Amphitheater
under
the
the
bridge
and
then
Riverview
Park.
So
those
are
the
those
are
cons,
we're
considering
those
specialty,
Parks
versus
neighborhood
parks,
because
they
are
larger
and
they
can
accommodate
much
larger
groups
and-
and
you.
L
Lot
more
maintenance
in
those
Source
things
in
those
Parks
because
they
are
larger
and
then
for
neighborhood
parks
and
going
back
to
especially
Parks
there's,
not
really
any
major
fee
changes.
It's
really
just
the
organization
of
it
and
calling
out
some
of
these
Parks
like,
for
example,
East,
Lake,
Park
or
Riverview
Park
they
weren't
named,
but
it
depended
on
how
many
people
you
had
at
the
park
and
what
time
and
when
so,
this
simplifies
it
greatly
and
otherwise
there's
really
not
any
major
fee
changes.
L
Neighborhood
parks
would
be
anything,
that's
not
a
park
listed
as
a
signature
or
specialty
Park
and
for
the
neighborhood
parks.
We
wanted
to
reduce
the
fees
to
make
them
much
more
accessible
and
available
to
neighborhoods.
So,
for
example,
if
you
have
less
than
150
participants,
we
lowered
the
fee
from
150
to
25
daily
rental
and
no
deposits
required,
so
that
is
really
to
encourage
access
and
use
of
these
parks
by
you
know
smaller
groups
and
then
for
neighborhood
parks.
L
Where
someone
wants
to
rent
it
and
have
more
than
150
participants,
we
wouldn't
require
a
deposit,
but
we
decreased
that
rate
from
500
to
150
dollars.
So
those
are
both
significant
decreases
that
we're
proposing
moving
on
to
community
centers
again.
Simplifying
the
fee
structure
was
a
primary
goal,
but
we
also
want
to
make
sure
that
when
these
facilities
are
being
rented
and
they're
taken
out
of
the
public
realm
and
people
like
everyday
chattanoogans
like
we
talked
about
earlier,
can't
just
go
in
and
use
these
spaces.
L
We
want
to
make
sure
that
the
fee
you
know
is
competitive,
but
also
reflects
the
fact
that
there's
private
use
of
a
public
facility
so
for
multi-purpose
room
rentals.
We
propose
increasingly
rate
from
20
per
hour
to
50
per
hour
during
operating
hours
and
then
for
non-operating
hours
from
25
to
65.
from
gymnasiums
The
Proposal
is
to
increase
from
40
per
hour
to
100
per
hour
and
then
for
fee
based
classes
we're.
L
Actually,
there
was
a
range
listed
for
different
types
of
classes
from
all
the
way,
from
a
dollar
to
eight
hundred
dollars,
depending
on
the
class
and-
and
you
know,
and
that's
for
like
materials
and
those
sorts
of
things
depending
on
what
kind
of
class
it
is.
If
it's
like
a
major
pottery
class
or
something
there
may
be
a
higher
fee,
but
we
we
change
that
range
from
zero
to
Five
Hundred.
The
reason
we
want
zero
to
be
in
there
so
that
we
can
offer
free
classes
when
the
minimum
is
one
dollar.
L
That
means
we
have
to
charge
someone
at
least
one
dollar,
or
it
will
show
up
in
an
audit
report
when
Stan
gets
around
to
to
auditing
those.
You
know
that
particular
Center,
so
we
want
to
make
sure
to
set
the
floor
at
zero
and
then
in
the
ordinance,
there's
language
that
talks
about
you
know
these
things
have
to
be
approved
by
the
director
in
advance.
You
can
just
willy-nilly
have
a
class.
L
There
is
documentation
about
what
the
class
is,
what
the
fees
are
and
that
sort
of
thing
for
swimming
pools
again
simplifying
the
structure
for
outdoor
pool
rental
rates.
There
was
five
or
six
combinations
of
how
you
could
rent
the
pool
in
an
outdoor
pool
and
it's
complicated
and
convoluted.
L
L
So
we
believe
that's
a
fair
rate
for
the
spray
Park
rental
rates
again,
changing
that
from
a
tiered
structure
to
just
flat
fees,
a
hundred
dollars
during
operating
hours
and
that's
a
maximum
of
25
participants
and
then
300
after
or
outside
of
operating
hours,
and
that's
a
maximum
of
50
participants.
So,
for
example,
if
someone
wants
to
rent
the
spray
park
for
a
birthday
party
for
45
kids,
they
know
that
there's
just
a
flat
rate.
They
have
to
pay
and-
and
they
can
use
it
for
that
amount
of
time.
L
Indoor
pool
rentals,
we're
we're
proposing
increase
from
45
an
hour
to
50
per
hour,
and
then
we
want
to
eliminate
the
usage
fees
for
outdoor
and
indoor
pools
other
than
Warner
Park,
so
Carver,
for
example.
It
would
be
free
to
go
swim
there.
South
Chattanooga
indoor
pool
make
it
free
to
go
swim
there,
Warner
Park.
We
talked
about
reducing
or
removing
that
fee
as
well,
but
after
lots
of
discussion
we
felt
like
it
should
remain
at
three
dollars
per
person
as
a
daily
entry
fee.
L
That
is
primarily
to
control
how
many
people
are
at
the
pool,
because
you
know
the
lines
there.
You
can
really
get
stacked
up
with
people
during
the
summer
if
it's
just
if
it's
free
and
anybody
can
come
anytime.
So
this
helps
with
controlling
the
the
amount
of
activity
and
amount
of
people
having
to
wait
to
get
into
the
pool
and
we're
hoping
that
since
Carver
and
other
pools
will
be
free,
people
would
go
to
those
if
they,
you
know,
if,
if
Warner
Park
is
just
too
crowded.
L
Next
section
is
day
camps,
so
we
had
the
recommendation
from
Community
Development
to
restore
summer
camp
fees.
This
is
the
same
fee.
It
was
several
years
ago.
That's
it
would
restore
to
300,
which
is
eight
weeks
of
summer.
Camp
includes
lunch
every
day,
I'm,
not
aware
of
any
other
cheaper
place
for
summer
camp.
A
lot
of
places
are
300
a
week,
much
less
300
for
eight
weeks.
L
I.
Think
part
of
part
of
the
rationale
here
is
because
when
people
have
to
put
a
little
skin
in
the
game,
they
tend
to
show
up.
More
often,
you
know
when
it's
free,
we
find
that
that
some,
some
kids
come
to
Camp
two
or
three
times
or
you
know
they
come
one
or
two
days
a
week
and
and
that
sort
of
thing.
So
if
there
is
a
fee,
you
know
one.
L
It
helps
us
plan
because
we
know
how
many
people
are
registering
and
that
sort
of
thing,
but
also
it
tends
to
stabilize
participation,
there's
an
early
registration
fee
discounted
to
250
instead
of
300,
but
then
also
we
would
bring
back
scholarships.
This
is,
and
some
of
you
that
were
here
I,
don't
know.
Eight
years
ago
may
remember,
this
is
the
fee
we
had.
L
This
is
the
structure
we
had
for
for
several
years
before
it
changed
a
couple
of
times,
so
a
scholarship
will
be
available
for
children
who
qualify
for
free
and
reduce
lunch
through
Hamilton
County
schools,
and
that
would
reduce
the
fee
to
forty
dollars
for
eight
weeks
of
Camp.
So
it's
still
a
little.
You
know
we
charge
a
little
bit
of
money,
but
it's
forty
dollars
for
eight
weeks
of
camp,
and
that
includes
lunch.
So
I
think
that
overall
is
a
good
structure
and
that's
what
was
recommended
by
Community
Development.
L
It
would
also
establish
fees
for
school,
break
camps,
fall,
break
spring,
break
winter
break
and
those
will
be
75
dollars
for
the
duration
of
the
break,
as
well
as
art
camps
at
75
and
then
parks
and
Outdoors
intends
to
have
some
camps.
That
would
be
free
and
they
would
be
outdoor
activity
camps,
not
the
day
camp
that
you
have
at
the
community
centers
but
separate
camps
throughout
the
city
in
different
locations,
Sports,
Programming
and
Fields.
L
The
we
have
some
increases
here
based
on
the
use
of
these
facilities
for
Washington
Hills
Semi-Pro
games,
that
would
increase
from
for
the
football
field
of
Washington
Hills.
It
would
increase
from
200
to
500
for
high
school
and
middle
school
games.
It
would
increase
from
200
to
350
and
Youth
League
games
would
increase
from
100
to
150..
Those
were
the
recommended
rates
from
the
recreation
division
at
Tyner
and
Montague
fields.
G
L
Don't
consider
it
to
be
necessary
and
then
softball
field,
rentals.
Again,
that's
a
fee
structure.
We
wanted
to
simplify
as
much
as
possible
the
fees
do
increase
throughout
and
it's
it's
a
lot
to
put
on
the
slides.
So,
but
it's
not
crazy
increases
it's
it's
reasonable
increases
throughout
for
all
the
softball
facilities,
and
that
will
help
you
know
bring
money
in
to
the
city,
because
we
do
have
maintenance
that
needs
to
occur
at
those
facilities.
L
The
rates
are
all
competitive
which
they
have
to
be
for
us
to
get
those
tournaments
that
we
want
and
then
for
National
scope,
tournaments
the
fee
for
a
national
scope
tournament,
which
is
considered
an
economic
development
event,
those
those
all
the
fees
are
waived
and
that's
in
the
ordinance.
The
only
thing
we're
changing.
There
is
the
definition.
L
The
definition
currently
says
if
we
register
40
teams
within
a
hundred
miles,
100
miles
outside
the
city
of
Chattanooga,
and
we
want
to
change
that
to
80
miles
just
to
reflect
what
team
the
teams
we
know
that
are
going
to
travel
here
and
make
sure
that
we
stay
in
compliance
that
like
we,
there
were
a
couple
tournaments,
and
this
was
in
an
audit
report.
That's
already
been
public,
but
you
know
there
were
some
that
were
90
miles
instead
of
100
miles
and
there's
several
of
those.
L
We
know
that
will
come
here,
so
we
feel
like
it's
best
just
to
change
it
to
80
miles
and
that's
still
people
traveling
far
enough
that
they're
likely
going
to
stay
overnight
for
a
softball
tournament.
L
For
these
next
sections,
it's
pretty
simple
skate
park.
We
are
proposing
to
eliminate
all
fees.
That's
for
entry,
as
well
as
renting
equipment,
different
things
for
Champions
club.
We
want
to
eliminate
the
user
fees
fitness
center.
We
would
also
eliminate
all
the
user
fees.
That's
the
fitness
center
at
Warner,
Park
therapeutic
recreation,
one
small
change
to
change
the
the
maximum
of
the
fee
range
from
50.75.
So
the
range
is
0
to
50.
L
Currently
it
would
be
zero
to
75,
depending
on
the
activity
and
approval
from
the
director
and
then
for
outdoor
Chattanooga.
We
wanted
to
simplify
the
fee
structure
and
also
clarify
activities
available
like,
for
example,
it
had
only
mountain
biking
and
we
wanted
to
clarify
that.
There's
also
that
there's
biking,
whether
it's
mountain
or
Road
biking,
and
then
also
establish
group
rates
group
Retreat
rates
by
group
size,
which
is
easier
to
follow
and
understand,
and
it's
a
just,
a
easier
to
follow
a
fee
for
civic
rental,
Civic
Center,
rentals,
Heritage
House.
L
The
the
big
changes
are
to
decrease
the
rate
for
City
residents
from
60
per
hour
to
50
per
hour,
but
increase
the
rate
for
non-city
residents
from
70
an
hour
to
75
per
hour.
Same
thing
on
the
daily
rate
for
City
residents
would
be
a
decrease
from
600
per
day
to
500
per
day.
If
you're,
not
a
city
resident,
it
goes
from
700
to
750,
and
then
we
added
wedding
fees,
which
you
know.
That
is
a
facility.
L
That's
used
for
weddings
and
there's
an
option
to
have
some
wedding
services
put
chairs
on
the
lawn
those
sorts
of
things.
So
we
added
that
fee
and
for
North
River
Civic
Center.
We
increased
the
meeting
room
rental
rate
from
35
to
50
per
hour
and
then
increase
special
event
rental
from
60
per
hour
to
just
a
flat
fee
of
300
dollars.
L
I
will
note
that
there's
no
change
to
the
fact
that
neighborhood
associations
can
meet
in
both
of
these
facilities
for
free
on
certain
days
of
the
month
in
certain
times,
which
is
listed
in
the
ordinance
and
then
finally
for
chapter
26,
we
have
municipal
golf
fees.
L
So
all
the
fees
are
you
know
fairly
minor
changes,
weekdays,
18
holes,
23
to
25
weekends,
28
to
30.
and
then
for
seniors.
It
would
go
for
17
to
18.
nine
holes.
Weekdays
11
50
to
1250
weekends
14
to
15.
seniors
will
go
to
11
50
to
12
flat
cart.
Rental
would
go
14
to
15
and
7
to
750,
and
then
all
the
annual
passes
would
increase
approximately
10
percent.
Some
of
them
were
nine.
Eight
point:
nine,
nine
but
I,
don't
think
they're.
L
Any
over
10
percent
there's
also
a
sentence
in
the
ordinance
that
allows
the
golf
manager
to
temporarily
increase
green
fees
by
a
maximum
of
25
when
Market,
or
course,
conditions
you
know
require
that
and
I
think
it's
that's
not
some.
That's
not
language.
L
So
that's
it
for
chapter
26..
Let
me
go
ahead
and
run
through
10
and
and
the
rest
before
we
do
questions
so.
B
L
Would
that
work
that
would
work
and
I
think
that's
why
we
set
it
out
to
the
13th.
B
G
L
B
All
right
and
Julia
and
the
one
question
the
one
thing
I
I
noticed
about:
I
love
the
way
you
say,
and
you
can
send
it
to
anybody,
but
me
I
got
it
what
the
golf
I
I
don't
know,
both
Brainerd
golf
course
and
brown
Acres
have
clubhouses
on
them.
That
might
want
to
be
rented
I,
didn't
see
them
listed
under
golf.
L
B
Hasn't
been
well
I'm,
not
sure
of
that,
because
I
know
that
the
Chamber
of
Commerce
Midtown
used
to
rent
Brainerd
Golf
Course.
Oh.
L
You
know
what
and
just
occurred
to
me
I
believe,
there's
language
in
the
code
that
allows
the
golf
manager
to
do
fees
for
special
events.
L
Not
set
in
stone
it's
a
it's,
it's
kind
of
a
judgmental
case-by-case
basis.
L
Right
chapter
10.:
we
all
this
was
done
with
input
from
the
Land
Development
Office.
We
essentially
are
just
suggesting
fees
for
inflation.
We
haven't
adjusted
these
in
a
while,
so
for
building
permits
the
base
fee
for
the
there's.
Five
ranges
that
are
listed
in
the
code
so
for
this
is
by
range.
The
base
fee
would
go
from
25
to
40
dollars.
That
second
range
would
have
no
change
in
the
base,
and
then
you
can
see
small
changes
in
the
base
fee.
L
and
then
with
permits,
there's
an
additional
fee
for
additional
value
over
the
for
every
additional
one
thousand
dollars
of
increment,
and
so
you
can
see
what
they
were
ranges
two
through
five
for
five,
fifty
four,
fifty
three,
fifty
and
250
we're
just
proposing
to
move
all
those
up
a
quarter
per
thousand
dollars,
so
not
too
much
of
an
increase,
but
enough.
L
You
know
that
it
makes
up
for
the
fact
that
costs
have
risen
significantly
for
for
what
we
do
have
to
do
to
process
permits
and
inspect
various
things
and
and
those
sorts
of
things
for
the
fee
for
moving
buildings
or
structures.
We
want
to
increase
from
125
to
150.
L
for
demolition
fees,
for
residential
increase,
from
125
to
200,
for
non-residential
under
10
000
square
feet
from
250
to
350,
and
then
the
last
one
you
see,
there's
400
to
500.,
so
not
huge
increases,
but
you
know
the
enough
to
make
up
for
increased
cost
the
other
fee
section.
This
is
the
largest
section
in
chapter
10.
I've
only
listed
the
fees
we're
proposing
to
change.
Otherwise,
if
I
don't
have
it
listed
in
the
presentation,
there's
no
change,
but
the
way
we
do
the
ordinance
is
we
replace
the
whole
section.
L
So
we
have
to
list
the
ordinance
is
much
longer.
This
is
just
a
list
of
things
that
are
changing
for
a
certificate
of
occupancy
for
beverage
license
from
50
to
125
certificate
of
completion
from
15
to
25,
a
zoning
letter
fee
double
from
75
to
150
compliance
letter
fee
50
to
75.
Permit
transfer
fee
from
25
to
50,
modular,
home
site
investigation
from
50
to
100,
and
then
we
have
floodplain
variance
requests
goes
from
100
to
200
and
District
fire
district
removal
request
fee
from
100
and
200..
L
Those
are
not
neces.
These
are
not
necessarily
based
on
the
you
know
the
cost
it
is
for
us
to
do
this.
We
looked
at
some
comparable
cities
for
these
fees,
in
particular,
most
of
ours
in
this
section
were
in
line,
and
this
is
why
there's
very
few
changed
I
mean
the
the
list.
When
you
see
it
is
triple
the
number
of
fees
that
are
listed
here.
L
These
are
the
ones
where
we
were
way
out
of
whack,
so
we
wanted
to
make
some
adjusted
adjustments
to
make
them
more
relevant
to
what
we
see
in
other
places
and
then
finally,
last
two
things
in
chapter
10,
we
did
add
a
fee
that
currently
does
not
exist,
which
is
a
building
permit
plan
revision
fee.
L
This
is
something
that
was
recommended
by
ldo
and
that
fee
would
be
set
at
five
percent
of
the
plan
review
fee,
and
that
was
what
that's
what
was
recommended
by
ldu
and
then
in
section
1032,
which
is
engineering
plans
review.
We
wanted
to
simplify
this
structure.
There
were
three
lot
size
ranges
like
up
to
10
11
to
50
more
than
50,
and
it
was
different
ranges
and
tiers.
We
just
wanted
to
change
it
to
if
it's
10,
Lots
or
less.
L
L
10
extra
dollars
and
that's
it
instead
of
three
or
four
different
fee
ranges:
that's
it
for
chapter
10
and
then
for
these
other
chapters.
There's
not
a
whole
lot
of
change
for
all
of
these
for
electrical
mechanical
gas
and
plumbing
the
current
permit
fees
are
35.
We
are
proposing
that
we
increase
them
all
to
forty
dollars,
not
much
of
an
increase
at
all,
but
and
that's
that
you
know
that
five
dollar
increase
is
what
was
recommended
by
ldo
when
we
look
through
all
of
these
for
electrical
there's.
L
No
other
changes
just
the
permit
fee
for
mechanical
there's.
No
other
changes
just
the
permit
fee
for
gas,
it's
the
permit
fee,
but
we
also
want
to
increase
the
fees
for
boiler
inspections,
which
are
all
based
on
BTU
ranges.
We
found
that
we
were
fairly
out
of
whack
on
these
as
well
compared
to
other
cities
and
and
what
those
fees
look
like.
So
for
and
those
are
based
on
ranges.
You
can
see
we're
just
doubling
every
fee,
so
the
first
one
goes
from
five
to
ten
and
the
last
one
is
35
to
70..
L
So
we're
just
doubling
all
of
those
and
those
are
for
for
boiler
inspections
based
on
the
size
of
the
boiler
per
BTU
range
and
then
for
plumbing
the
fee
from
35
to
40,
and
then
there's
a
list
of
additional
permit
fees
for
plumbing,
and
it's
for
each,
for
example,
each
Plumbing
fixture
each
building
sewer
each
water
heater
and
there's
a
whole
bunch
more
that
are
not
changing.
These
are
just
the
ones
that
we
think
need
to
change.
You
can
see.
L
Some
of
these
are
very
small,
but
it
puts
us
more
in
line
with
where
they
should
be,
and
I
won't
read
all
those.
But
you
can
see
change
some
from
five
dollars
to
six
dollars,
some
from
10
to
20
and
then
there's
the
vacuum.
Breaker
five
to
ten
underground
sand,
grease
or
oil
Interceptor
from
25
to
35,
so
fairly
minor
increases,
but
they
do
put
us
where
we
believe
they
should
be,
and
that
is
all
of
the
changes
you
will
see
in
the
ordinances
that
you
have.
B
We
will
hold
our
questions
until
we
have
a
chance
to
read
the
whole
thing
and
I
would
encourage
you
guys
to
to
contact
who,
who
is
the
cut
Vicky?
Who
is
the
contact
person?
Oh.
B
K
B
L
Than
the
use
of
public
space,
so
the
rental
fees
I
mean
they
do
cover
the
cost
of
you
know
we
have
to
have
staff
available
and
all
that,
but
we
also
want
the
fees
to
reflect
the
fact
that
we're
removing
them
from
public
use
for
a
given
period
of
time,
but
for
all
the
development
related
fees.
Yes,
those
are
just
to
Simply
cover
some
of
the
increased
costs
that
we
have,
whether
it's
cost
of
personnel
cost
of
materials.
You
know
going
out
and
doing
inspections
just
cost
more
than
he
used
to.
B
A
Go
ahead.
Thank
you,
madam
chair.
If
we're
finished
with
the
report
before
we
adjourn
to
six
I'd
like
to
just
recognize
a
couple,
people
in
the
room
that
will
be
missed,
no
don't
walk
away,
Mr
Goldberg.
So
this
is
your
last
agenda
session.
L
A
A
You
make
this,
you
make
this
place
special
and
it
runs
much
better
when
you're
here
we
will,
we
will
we
will
get
through
somehow,
but
we
I
wanted
to
say
personally
that
thank
you.
You've
been
a
fantastic
and
incredible
asset
to
this.
To
this
city
and
I
appreciate
your
friendship
and
my
door
is
always
open,
as
my
phone
is
always
on
for
you
and
I.
Thank
you
very
much
and
wish
you
both
the
absolute
best.
L
Say
one
thing
sure
I
just
first
of
all,
thank
you
very
much,
but
also
I
want
to
recognize
the
fact
that
we
have
a
fantastic
Finance
staff
at
the
city
of
Chattanooga
I.
You
know
for
the
past
11
months,
I
get
the
the
I
get
to
be
the
one
who
takes
credit
for
many
things,
but
without
a
staff
of
50
plus
folks
that
work
very
hard
every
day,
people
that
have
been
here
that
know
a
whole
lot
more
than
I
know
and
and
share
their
their
wisdom
and
insights.
L
Those
that's
who
I
think
you
know.
We
should
think
for
our
success
in
in
the
city
when
it
comes
to
finance
and
budgeting
and
you're
in
good
hands
with
Vicky.
Well,
unless
she
gets
tired
of
you
quickly,
we'll
see,
but
we
have
a
great
staff
in
the
city
and,
and
everything
will
be
just
fine.
