Description
City Council Strategic Planning Meeting 03-09-21
A
Starting
a
webinar
okay
good
afternoon,
ladies
and
gentlemen,
welcome
to
our
march
the
9th
strategic
planning
meeting.
I
now
call
this
meeting
to
order.
We
do
have
a
couple
of
public
works
items
this
afternoon
that
we're
going
to
place
in
public
works
committee
to
talk
about
them.
One
is
our
storm,
water,
recidivism
and
then
also
vegetation
ordinance,
and
I'm
going
to
turn
the
chair
over
at
this
time
to
councilman
mitchell
to
let
him
run
these
two
items.
Councilman
mitchell.
A
B
You,
mr
chair,
yeah,
the
first
item:
we're
going
to
look
at
is
stormwater
recidivism
ordinance,
and
this
is
this
is
something
that
councilman
henderson
and
myself
have
been
working
on
to
try
to.
We,
I've
heard
the
council
and
I've
heard
words
like
where,
where
where's
the
teeth
in
the
law
where's
the
enforcement,
so
what
we've
done
is
we've
we
looked
at
that
and
we're
trying
to
find
a
home
for
the
steep
slopes.
Floodways
ordinance-
and
this
is
this-
will
be
part
of
it.
B
B
D
D
That
gives
an
opportunity
for
all
parties
to
have
a
hearing,
an
opportunity
for
them
to
dispute
that
and
to
get
into
court
if
they
choose
that,
it's
not
just
some
arbitrary
action
by
an
individual
that
might
be
giving
a
citation,
there's
a
full
chance
for
a
hearing
under
the
procedures
here
and
for
the
courts
to
approve
those
civil
penalties.
After
that's
happened,
and
we
believe
that
this
would
be
the
best
approach
to
be
able
to
provide
for
people
to
at
least
abide
by
our
regulations
on
storm
water.
Here
in
the
city.
B
B
Being
good
actors
when
they're,
when
we're
dealing
with
with
things
like
steep
slopes,
storm
water
flood
ways
is,
is
a
we
thought,
a
quasi-judicial
board
that
would
link
right
to
the
court
system
so
that
we
can
try
to
assure
a
due
process
to
where
people
can
feel
feel
heard
and
where,
if
they
disagree
with,
what's
what's
being
done
or
what's
been
decided,
then
they
can
take
that
to
the
court
and
that
I
think
in
summary
now
I
you
sent
this
out
phil.
I
hope
you've
all
had
a
chance
to
read
it.
B
E
B
We've
had
conference
council
person
henderson
and
myself.
I've
had
conversations
with
different
folks.
I
believe
that
the
stormwater
staff
has
signed
off
on
it
in
public
works.
I've
got
a
phone
call
into
the
acting
chair
of
the
board
david
hudson.
I
haven't
had
that
returned
yet,
but
obviously,
if
we
choose
to
go
down
this
road,
we're
going
to
want
them
heavily
active
in
in
the
production
of
this
legislation
from
start
to
wherever
it
may
go.
E
D
D
His
opinion,
unless
you've
got
a
review
board
looking
at
it
to
actually
make
that
occur
now
it
could
be
a
an
issue
that
could
go
before
the
board
of
zoning
appeals,
potentially,
if
you
had
that,
but
normally
that
is
done
on
the
front
end
before
the
construction
project
begins.
That's
the
problem
with
the
zoning
aspect
of
that
and
you
can
make
requirements
of
what
has
to
be
done
on
the
property
under
zoning
to
be
able
to
meet
those
requirements.
D
The
the
advantage,
at
least
on
the
storm
water
board
in
this
case,
is
once
the
project
begins,
and
this
would
apply
to
any
time.
There
is
more
than
one
acre
of
land
that
is
disturbed.
That's
the
application
under
31
320
in
the
code.
It
would
not
apply
to
infill
of
single
lots.
That's
the
only
concern.
I
guess
you've
got
in
that
regard,
so
areas
that
are
smaller
than
an
acre
in
size.
It
would
not
have
an
effect
on,
but
anytime
there
is
clear
cutting
or
involvement
on
slopes
with
one
acre
or
more.
This
would
apply.
D
B
Yes-
and
I
would
just
add
to
that
that
in
the
other
phases
of
this
effort,
we
could
always
address
that
through
an
amendment
process.
Yes,
if
we
wanted
to
go
smaller
than
one
acre,
I
I
know
the
constituents
over
here
would
probably
like
to
see
smaller
than
one
acre,
because
so
thank
you
for
those
questions.
Councilman
henderson.
A
Thank
you,
mr
chair,
I'd
like
to
bring
bill
payne
in
just
to,
I
guess,
on
the
administrative
side,
make
sure
that
and
I've
I've
talked
to
jeremy
sweeley
and
he
feels
like
this
does
allow
them
to
enforce
being
able
to
restrict
or
giving
land
disturbing
permits
to
people
that
haven't
paid.
I
guess
my
question
is
on
that
side.
Do
they
now
come
up
with
a
policy
that
lines
up
with
this
ordinance?
A
F
A
F
For
the
enforcement
of
these
codes
and
and
and
through
the
site
development
manager,
which
is
which
is
a
water
quality
funded
position.
That
is,
that
is
how
they
have
access
to
be
able
to
get
to
the
board.
Mr
schwilley,
I
believe,
has
has
presented
on
this
information
to
the
board
back
last
summer,
or
possibly
even
earlier
than
that,
and
so
it
is
something
that
he's
been
working
on
has
has
mentioned
to
the
board
and
presented
to
them
in
the
past
about
issues
that
he
saw
from
within
the
land
development
office.
G
A
A
F
And-
and
I
think,
to
the
extent
that
that
the
provision
in
place
is
in
place,
we
would
have
we
would
work
directly
with
jeremy
and
with
dallas
rucker
in
the
land
development
office
to
make
sure
that
that
we
that
we
have
it
applied.
There
is
an
existing
stormwater
enforcement
protocol
that
already
exists
and
and
has
been
reviewed
and
approved
by
the
board.
That
basically
applies.
A
D
F
F
There's,
not
any
provision
to
my
knowledge
that
prevents
us
from
going
smaller
than
an
acre.
That
is
a
local
decision,
but
that
the
state
the
state
requires
that
we
have
a
program
in
place
for
land,
disturbing,
permit
activities
for
one
acre
or
larger,
or
if
they
are
part
of
a
larger
plan
of
common
development.
E
B
B
But,
as
I've
said
before,
a
person
can
go
get
one
permit
at
a
time
subdivide
their
land
to
less
than
an
acre
on
lots
and
go
one
at
a
time
if
they
wanted
to
and
that
probably,
if
they
really
were
out
to
be
a
bad
actor,
they
could
get
around
things
like
that,
and
I
I'm
actually
thinking
of
a
developer.
Who
probably
would
do
that
if
they
had
a
chance.
C
F
F
Just
to
just
to
add
to
that
conversation
just
I,
I
wanted
to
make
sure
that
the
the
one
acre
threshold
is
set
based
on
based
on
the
federal
clean
water
act.
They're
current.
Currently
we
already
regulate
down
to
a
thousand
square
feet
of
disturbance,
and
so
there
are
varying
levels,
and
so
I
think
that
would
be
that's.
What
we
would
have
to
look
at
is
what
are
those
levels
when
are
they
triggered
and
why
are
they
triggered
and
which
ones
of
those
levels
may
be
the
correct
one
to
apply
in
this
particular
situation?
F
But
there
are,
there
are
some
different
levels
that
we
already
apply.
Those
were
applied
by
the
council
several
years
ago,
as
as
part
of
some
some
earlier
changes
that
were
made
because
we
were
having
similar
types
of
issues,
so
I
think
we
could
apply
that
one
of
these
one
of
these
other
levels,
I
think,
there's
a
1,
000
square
foot
and
a
5
000
square
foot
of
disturbed
area.
So
there
are
two
different
pieces.
One
is:
is
the
size
of
the
property?
B
A
Well,
I
think
one
of
the
questions
came
to
mr
attorney
my
question
before
we
get
ahead
of
ourself.
If
we're
gonna
go
smaller
than
an
acre
and
bill
or
phil,
you
might
be
able
to
answer
this.
Does
that
not
have
to
come
through
the
stormwater
board?
Much
like
if,
if
we're
doing
a
zoning
change
or
a
planning
change
comes
through
the
planning
commission,
I
think
that
would
have
to
come
through
or
as
a
recommendation
from
the
stormwater
board.
Wouldn't
it.
D
D
A
B
Well,
well,
and-
and
I
think
the
thinking
is
very
sound
because
I
just
made
the
comment
and
we're
co-sponsors-
that
we're
gonna
we're
gonna,
get
them
involved
early
and
often
so
I
think
that's
a
great
way
to
start
the
the
I'm
gonna
say:
partnership
for
lack
of
a
better
term,
but
that
that
that's,
I
think,
that's
a
great
suggestion.
Council
person
burrs.
Would
you
be
okay
handling
it?
That
way.
E
Yeah,
I'm
fine
with
that.
I
I
I
just
want
us
to
keep
in
mind
that
a
lot
of
the
problems
that
are
happening
are
happening
on
these
small
infills
as
well,
because
we're
running
out
of
land
or
people
are
splitting
up
and
and
trying
to
get
around
the
law.
So
since
we
can
do
it,
I'd
like
us
to
seriously
consider
doing
it
or
having
it
in
our
toolbox
at
least
I'm
good
with
whatever
just
so,
we
don't
don't
lose
sight
of
it.
F
Okay,
phil
you-
and
I
can
also
talk
as
well
a
little
bit
more
about
where
these,
because
there
are
some
other
tiers
regarding
the
permitting
that
we
can,
we
can
talk
about
as
well.
Part
of
that
section
in
320
is,
is
also
referencing.
The
fact
that
there
is
a
there
is
also
a
state
permit
required
when
that
threshold
exceeds
one
acre,
and
we
can
certainly,
we
can
certainly
talk
offline
to
find
the
right
section
where
these
other,
these
other
regulated
tiers,
are
referenced
in
the
code.
Okay,
no
problem.
B
That
sounds
great.
Any
other
questions,
I'm
I'm
I'm.
I
have
a
question.
I
would
like
to
move
something,
but
I
I
think
I've
been
thrown
into
the
chairs
position.
So
unless
I
take
a
special
privilege,
I
don't
think
I
can
do
that.
But
what
I'd
like
to
see
happen?
Is
we
get
it
on
the
agenda
two
weeks
out
and
have
a
first
vote?
In
two
weeks,
council
person,
henderson.
A
Well,
that's
what
I
was
going
to
suggest
and
normally
when
we
take
it
through
a
committee,
the
chair
will
ask:
are
we
ready
to
place
it
on
the
two-week
agenda
and,
if
everybody's
ready
for
it
to
be
placed
on
the
two-week
agenda
and
there's
no
there's
nobody
in
opposition
to
that,
then
we'll
we'll
we'll
have
it
placed
on
the
two-week
agenda.
So
I
I
guess
you
just
asked
the
question:
are
we
ready
to
place
it
on
the
two-week
agenda.
B
That
would
be
the
agenda
of
the
23rd
of
march.
I
believe-
and
I
guess
we
also
have
time,
even
if
we
decided
as
a
council
to
do
that
to
if
some
things
came
up,
we
could
deal
with
it
and
there
will
be
a
committee
meeting
that
day
on
the
23rd.
If
some
unexpected
things
come
up
that
we
could
deal
with,
as
as
the
council
knows,
we
also
could
defer
a
week
or
something
like
that
if
something
else
came
up,
but
if
the
council's
ready
for
that,
I'm
more
than.
A
B
B
B
G
Though,
where
I
have
been
talking
with
phil
is
taking
the
recommendations
from
staff,
and
there
were
quite
a
few-
if
you
saw
my
last
email
to
council,
there
were
quite
a
few
of
agreements
with
staff
moving
forward
and
incorporating
those
agreements
into
and
matching
up
to
the
ordinance.
I
think
it's
very
important.
I
think
there
were
a
lot
of
if
you
saw
that
document.
G
I
would
say,
in
reference
to
your
constituent
in
district
2
at
one
point
was
on
board
with
this
quite
heavily
and
somehow
it's
done
in
180
on
us.
So
I
would
suggest
that
and
that
particular
legislation,
councilman
mitchell,
was
suggested
for
comments
from
that
individual
and
the
response
I
got
back
was
I'm
not
qualified
to
answer
these
or
to
chime
in
so
I'm
guessing
with
the
group
that
he
has.
They
want
to
create
their
own
legislation
and
come
forward
with
some
ideas
present
to
council.
G
I
think
that's
great,
but
this
has
been
out
there
for
almost
a
year
or
more,
and
I
have
not
received
officially
any
input
from
these
said
individuals,
so
I
think
that
staff
has
recommended
their
changes.
Their
input
we've
matched
that
up,
and
I
would
like
to
see
that
kind
of
crafted
into
a
final
piece
and
and
moved
forward,
because
I
think
if
we
wait
for
that
input,
it
will
ultimately
change
the
intent
of
what
the
vegetation
component
was
originally
designed
to
do.
G
It
was
not
designed
to
be
the
magic
pill
to
solve
all
of
the
woes
which
I
heard
in
the
in
in
the
statement.
Very
loudly
and
if
that
group
would
like
to
get
together
and
craft
their
own
ordinance,
I
think
that
we
would
be
glad
to
look
at
that
in
the
future,
but
I
think
it
would
hold
us
back
tremendously
from
the
point
we
have
gotten
to
this
to
where
we
are
today.
E
Yeah,
I
think
councilman
ledford
has
done
a
fabulous
job
on
this
worked
really
really
hard,
and
I
think
it's
time
for
us
to
move
forward
on
it
I
councilman
ledford.
Is
it
ready
to
go
once
all
the
various
suggestions
are
the
pieces?
If
so,
then
I
think
we
ought
to
go
ahead
and
get
it
ready
to
put
on
agenda
you've
done
a
great.
G
Job
well,
thank
you.
Yes
ma'am.
I
think
phil
and
I
need
to
probably
sit
down
this
week
if
possible
and
get
it
ready
with
the
match
up
to
the
comments
from
staff
that
we
that
we
gave
a
nod
to
in
the
what
I
shared
with
all
of
the
council
and
get
that
incorporated
into
the
ordinance.
So
it
matches
up
phil
and
then
I
think
we're
ready
for
something
that
we
can
move
forward.
Is
anything
going
to
be
perfect?
No,
can
we
look
at
it
later?
G
D
G
G
D
D
A
Well,
what
my
my
thinking
on
this
is
the
storm
water
board
seems
to
have
more
teeth
and
stiffer
penalties
for
not
abiding
by
the
ordinance,
whereas,
if
this,
if
this
lives
in
zoning,
they
go
to
city
court
and
they
pay
a
50
fine
and
they
pay
it
and
they
go
on
about
their
business.
Yes,
these
these
can
carry
stiffer
civil
penalties
plus
the
fact
this
is.
This
is
sort
of
post
construction
and
we
start
we
start
to
lose
the
handle
on
post
construction
when
it
lives
in
zoning.
D
A
A
A
G
B
Let
me
let
me
ask
a
question:
we
have
a
public
works
and
transportation
committee
meeting
on
the
23rd.
Is
that
going
too
long
before
we
have
a
discussion
about
about
this
ordinance
or
or
should
we?
I
know
that
you've
got
a
target
of
matching
it
up
by
friday
and
certainly
we
could
have
it
circulated.
A
B
Colleagues,
wow
you
try
to
make
me
work
a
little
bit
before
I
get
out
of
here.
That's
good
good
for
you,
okay,
okay!
I
agree.
It
is
good
for
me
all
right
then.
Well,
let's,
let's
call
a
special
committee.
Public
works
transformation
committee
for
the
16th
next
week,
all
right
any
other
questions
or
or
are
there
any
other
suggestions
or
comments
about
some
other
possible
changes
in
what
we've
seen
so
far?
While
you
know,
phil's,
phil
and
councilman
ledford
are
working
on
it.
I
D
I
I
believe
this
helps
them,
at
least
on
the
aspect
and
you're
you're
concerned
previously
on
here,
councilman
gilbert,
about
being
able
to
hold
up
on
a
permit
as
long
as
an
administrative
body
makes
that
decision.
My
concern
was
having
just
one
individual
make
that
decision
in
city
government
without
necessarily
having
any
a
prospect
of
appeal.
D
A
So
I
will
respond
to
councilman
gilbert's
question
briefly.
Mr
sweely
had
a
a
a
pretty
good
list,
a
pretty
exhausted
list.
I
think
this
was
sort
of
the
low-hanging
fruit
that
we
thought
we
could
sort
of
do
immediately.
I
think
some
of
the
other
things
that
we
need
to
continue
to
look
at
and
address
as
we
go
along,
but
this
was
something
that
we
could
we
felt
like
we
could
sort
of
do
immediately
and
and
take
effect
sooner
rather
than
later.
A
B
Thank
you,
33
might
be
a
little
bit
high
for
me.
I
was
standing
on
some
ground,
that's
being
developed
just
the
other
day
and
33
steep.
I
mean
it
is
really
steep
how
low
I
want
to
go.
I
I
I
don't
want
to
be
over
burdensome,
but
but
that
30
33
might
be
a
little
high
for
me,
but
I
was
thinking
that
you
know
that
could
be.
G
G
B
B
A
Thank
you,
sir
excellent
job
of
leading
those
two
discussions,
and
I
do
think
we've
made
some
progress
this
afternoon
good
to
see.
We
now
move
to
other
business
and
we
do
in
fact
where's
our
madam
clerk.
You
can
let
her
yes
go
there,
we
go
he's
gone
and
if
you
would,
let's
bring
in
chief
hyman
for
our
next
order
of
business,
I
think
that's
who
may
have
just
yeah
bring
in
chief
hotman
and
he
needs
to
give
us
a
report
on
some
surplus
radios
that
we
no
longer
need.
J
Yes,
this
is
surplus
equipment
that
the
radio
shot
shop,
pat
rollins,
brought
forward
to
us
it's
20
year,
old
anik
equating
equipment
and
instead
of
us
just
surplusing
it
and
going
to
a
landfill
or
memphis.
The
city
of
memphis
can
actually
use
some
of
this
equipment
because
they
still
use
some
of
that
technology.
So.
C
A
D
Yes,
sir,
you
have
the
the
power
and
to
approve,
and
the
mayor
has
the
power
to
approve
just
a
a
private
disposition
of
property
in
connection
with
things.
That's
one
reason
we
want
to
at
least
make
sure
that
we
provided
it
to
the
council
in
connection
with
this,
where
it
appears
to
be
advantageous
contagious
to
the
city
or
where
the
property
is
of
a
specialized
nature
to
not
be
of
general
marketability.
J
D
A
All
right,
nicole,
you
can
excuse
our
guest
next
order
of
business
is
our
pending
presentations
and
education
session
councilwoman
coonrod
looks
like
we
have
a
yfd
committee
on
the
30th
concerning
our
office
of
family
empowerment.
Is
that
correct?
Yes,
okay,
we're
all
we're
lined
up
got
everybody
lined
up
to
go
on
that?
Yes,
absolutely!
Okay,
and
I
guess
if
the
council
has
any
specific
questions
that
they
would
like
to
ask
if
you
would
send
them
to
councilwoman
coonrod
between
now
and
the
30th.
I'm
surely
sure
that
would
be
greatly
appreciated.
H
H
A
A
H
H
A
All
right,
nicole,
if
you
would
put
that
on
for
the
23rd,
please
make
sure
that
gets
back
on
our
agenda.
Yes,
sure,
all
right,
council,
you
will
look
over
your
board
appointments
there.
I
think.
If
you'll
look
down
to
group
domination
process,
we
still
have
two
seats
that
need
to
be
filled
on
the
health,
education
and
housing
facility,
and
that
is
groups,
four
five
and
six
seven,
eight
and
nine.
A
D
Both
boards
have
now
voted
to
go
to
nine
member
boards
that
was
approved
at
the
health
and
ed
board
meeting
and
the
industrial
development
board
meeting.
We
have
sent
our
in
the
process
of
sending
that
information
off
to
the
secretary
of
state
for
their
approval
of
the
charter.
Once
that's
accomplished,
it'll
be
just
a
member
for
each
district
on
that
body.
E
E
A
E
A
Okay,
as
many
of
you
know,
we
have
some
council
members
that
will
be
leaving
us
come
april.
I
guess
that
would
be
april.
The
13th
would
be
the
last
meeting
of
this
current
council.
One
will
be
leaving
us.
Their
last
meeting
will
be
on
april.
The
6th.
I
would,
as
the
chair
like
to
see
us
return
back
to
chambers
for
the
month
of
april.
Mr
attorney,
it's
my
understanding
that
the
governor
is
not
going
to
renew
our
executive
order
allowing
electronic
meetings
after
april
april
30th.
A
So
I
mean
I
think,
given
that
situation
along
with
I've
talked
to
several
that
would
like
to
have
their
last
meeting
be
back
in
the
chambers.
I
think
we
need
to
start
making
preparations,
madam
clerk
and
mr
attorney
as
well
as
notifying
the
administration
that
we
will
return
back
to
chambers.
On
april,
the
6th.
B
But
is
there
a
possibility
of
doing
some
type
of
zoom
in
chambers
combination
where
if
people
want
to
speak,
they
don't
have
to
feel
like
they're
exposing
themselves
in
the
council
chambers,
I'm
perfectly
fine
with
myself
returning
to
the
council
chambers,
I
just
would
wonder:
can
we
do
a
hybrid
of
some
type
where
at
the
end
of
the
meeting
people,
if
they
want
to
speak,
could
do
that
via
zoom
or
I
don't
technically?
I
don't
know
if
that's
even
possible,
but
I'm
just
asking
the
question.
A
A
However,
I
don't
think
that
I
would
want
to
do
a
hybrid,
really
past
april,
the
30th
when
the
executive
order
runs
out
and
it
may
give
the
administration
some
department
heads
a
level
of
comfort
if
we
continue
to
do
sort
of
a
hybrid.
So
I
will
I
will
contact
I.t
and
see
what
progress
we
made
on
being
able
to
do
a
hybrid
meeting,
and
maybe
we
could
maybe
we
could
do
a
hybrid
through
at
least
maybe
the
30th
of
april,
when
the
executive
orders
do
run
out.
A
K
I
A
A
A
K
I
know
I
know,
but
I
just
say
firsthand
like
it's.
I
can't
think
of
nothing
really
bad
to
say
about
neither
one
of
you
guys
and
just
your
resume
erskine
alone
says
enough
about
you
to
well.
You
know,
even
if
you're
not
serving
on
council,
I
already
see
and
expect
you're
going
to
continue
to
do
great
things.
K
A
D
A
C
A
The
start:
okay,
okay,
all
right
council.
I
don't
think
we
have
anything
else
on
our
agenda
that
we
need
to
cover
this
afternoon.
So
we
will
at
this
time
end
our
strategic
planning
and
we
will
resume
shortly
with
an
attorney-client
privilege.
Meeting,
see
see
everybody
back
in
just
just
shortly.
All
right.
