My
computer
just
jumped
Pages
paper
documents.
Don't
do
that
so
the
another
question
Chief
was
about
previous
budgets
had
broken
down
alpha.
Bravo,
charlie
Etc,
and
it
looks
like
now
those
are
being
combined
into
I'm
guessing
into
this
33
million
dollar
line
item.
The
uniform
services
command
is
am
I
understanding
that.

Apartment
is
getting
the
plan
steps
within
their
step
plan
and
the
proposed
civilian
increases
with
the
new
Step
plan.
If
you
look
on
your
details,
you're
going
to
see
where
they've
split
out
some
overtime
so
that
they
can
track
special
assignments
differently,
so
those
are
kind
of
some.
If
you
look
details,
those
are
two
big
pieces
that
look
a
little
funny.
One
minus
one
positive
there
are
benefit
increases
that
have
accompany
the
salary
increases.
There
are
some
increases
in
oji
claims.
K
B
K
K
K
J
Let
me
just
pause
on
this
real,
quick,
okay,
so
yeah,
who
knows
maybe
we'll
get
to
Community
Development
today,
I'm
not
sure
is
the
pace,
we're
moving,
but
right
now,
Community
Development
has
four
divisions,
I
believe,
and
one
of
them
is
code
enforcement
and
I've.
You
know
we've
heard
over
the
last
couple
years,
some
confusion
from
Council
and
others.
When
there's
a
Code
related
thing,
does
it
go
to
Dallas
or
Donna?
Does
it
go
to
Donna?
Where
does
it
go
right
and
you
know
really?
J
This
is
an
effort
to
bring
that
all
Under,
One,
Roof
I
think
it
used
to
be
like
this
years
ago,
but
bringing
all
of
Code
Enforcement
together
with
ldo
and
our
building
inspectors.
All
all
things
code
related
Under,
One
Roof
under
Dallas
in
the
Land
Development
Office,
so
whether
Land
Development
Office
is
the
right
name
for
it
in
the
long
term,
I
don't
know,
but
it's
at
least
all
in
one
place.
J
J
A
Leaving
have
you
got
sufficient
Council
over
and
over
again
talks
about
enforcements
because
we
make
the
laws,
but
then
Administration
or
executive
enforces,
and
so
has
there
been
a
thoughtful
look
I'm
sure
there
has
been
about
this
enforcement
issues.
We've
talked
about
it
for
years.
Yeah
enforcement
isn't
our
job,
it's
yours
and
how
do
and
it's
a
good
balance,
but
part
of
the
balance
hasn't
been
there.
So
what
are
your
thoughts.
J
It's
probably
a
bigger
conversation.
I
know.
Last
year
we
added
a
couple
enforcement
positions
here,
hearing
the
feedback
from
Council
and
we
actually
started
a
bit
more
of
a
focus
on
the
commercial
side,
because
that
was
a
little
bit
lacking.
We
were
mostly
focused
on
the
residential
side
and
there's
a
lot
of
commercial
opportunity
in
the
space
look
I
mean,
frankly,
we
could
have
a
hundred
code
enforcement
folks
out
there.
You
know,
so
it's
always
going
to
be
a
balance.
J
When
we
looked
at
that
repeat
Behavior,
it
actually
was
pretty
pretty
promising,
but
look
there's
a
lot
of
opportunity
in
this
space.
I
think
bringing
it
under
one
roof
will
sharpen
the
focus
there
and
give
us
better
opportunity
to
to
dial
in
a
little
bit
more,
and
then
we
have
a
better
sense
of
you
know
what
we
can
do
more
in
this
space.
Well,.
C
A
A
We're
going
to
use
an
aho
person
to
take
up
the
slack
where
the
Constitution
prevents
City
Court
from
doing
it
because
of
the
fee
limit
on
the
fee
that
have
we
thought
enough
and
sufficiently
about
beefing
up
that
office
and
with
funds
that
normally
were
spent
ineffectively,
and
that's
not
a
criticism
of
the
people.
There's
a
law,
that's
in
the.
E
I
E
A
J
And
the
good
news
is
with
that
aho,
you
know
again
a
little
bit.
The
impetus
was
a
little
bit
more
around
stvr,
but
that
being
linked
to
ldo.
Well
guess
what
code
enforcement
now
being
there
within
Dallas's
shop
as
well
I
think
there's
a
great
opportunity
to
be
focused
on
all
things:
good
enforcement
with
that
aho
and
doing
exactly.
A
E
C
I'll
second,
that
thought
I
mean
I
think
it
would
be
very
wise
to
look
at
the
budget
for
our
city
court
and
see
where
could
we
potentially
move
some
of
that
money
into
a
line
item
for
the
aho
and
then
to
create
some
clarity
of
process?
For
when
a
Code
Enforcement
issue
goes
to
an
aho
versus
to
a
to
the
court?
C
I,
don't
know
what
our
limitations
are
there
on.
Can
we
just
start
bypassing
the
court
altogether,
but
I'm
sure
that
every
one
of
us
in
our
district
has
a
handful
of
serious,
ongoing
problem
properties
and
then
as
much
as
we're
glad
we
move
a
lot
of
people
back
into
compliance.
It's
the
ones
that
continually
for
years
and
years,
disturb
the
peaceful
enjoyment
of
your
home
that
that
cause
a
lot
of
problems
and-
and
we
don't
have
a
solution
for
it
in
in
the
city
court
right
now,.
E
G
What
was
already
I
think
moving
this
under
the
umbrella,
because
it's
been
confusing
and
I
I
I've
known
about
this
change
for
a
while,
and
it
makes
a
lot
of
sense
because
when
a
lot
of
the
calls
that
we
receive
or
emails
is
because
nothing's
being
done
and
fifty
dollars
is
to
quote
the
Infamous
Dr
Carol
Burrs,
just
the
cost
of
doing
business
to
a
lot
of
people-
and
you
know
what
it's
absolutely
true
and
we
need.
We
need
that
enforcement
tool,
so
I
I.
Thank
you.
I
just
want
to
share
that.
A
A
That's
like
a
discussion
time
so
I'm
adding
that
for
further
discussion,
but
kind
of
keep
that
in
mind,
because
I'd,
even
like
Dallas
here
I've
heard
Dallas
say
that
it's
really
frustrating
when
his
guys
do
a
really
good
job
and
then
nothing
happens,
and
so
yeah
I'm,
adding
that
to
a
library
and
agencies.
Okay,.
E
K
B
K
A
K
E
J
K
There
are,
if
you
look
at
their
salaries,
their
salaries
are
up
considerably.
There
was
there
have
been
from
the
pay
plans.
Last
year
there
have
been
some
appeals
and
then
what
we
were
talking
about
vacancies
and
how
those
have
been
filled.
There
have
also
been
quite
a
few
times
when
we
had
to
hire
above
our
minimum,
which
is
why
we
really
need
a
good
player.
So
they've
had
an
impact
on
their
salaries,
which
you
will
see
in
the
in
in
the
detailed
lines
it's
fairly
large
and
it's
because
of
those
two
cases
they.
K
This
is
a
great
thing:
there's
a
decrease
in
their
custodial
services.
This
was
highlighted
in
the
couch
cushions
last
week,
where
they
figured
that
you
adding
three
crew
workers
was
a
savings
over
Outsourcing
it.
So
there's
a
big
reduction
in
that
line.
One
thing
we
need
to
highlight
is
utilities.
If
you
do,
the
combination
of
the
utilities,
there
is
about
a
526
thousand
dollar
increase,
somehow
Less
in
the
23
budget.
K
So
it's
like,
we
figured
out
who
needs
to
be
responsible
for
them
and
we're
giving
them
the
budget
so,
but
it
is
a
larger
item
increase.
Also,
a
large
item
that
you'll
see
is
under
contracted
operations.
It's
up,
100
150
000,
that's
TPL,
100
of
that
came
from
Community
Development,
and
then
there
was
a
fifty
thousand
dollar
increase
to.
K
L
E
K
Subsidy
wide
celebrations,
like
New
Year's
Mandela
day,
Earth,
Day
pops
on
the
river
and
those
kinds
of
things
Juneteenth.
Yes,
then,
there's
also
a
line
item
for
capital
s
that
has
a
hundred
thousand
dollar
increase
and
that's
to
start
working
on
some
of
our
deferred
maintenance
for
aging
River,
Walk
lighting,
new
pavers
replacement
of
plants,
irrigation
repairs,
things
that
we
need
to
really
start
working
on
and
there's
an
increase
to
the
downtown
River
Park
and
the
county
will
reimburse
half
of
that.
It's
pretty
much.
The
Big
East
and
Mars
I.
M
It's
a
very,
very
small
toe.
It
is
a
very,
very
small
toe.
It
is
a
even
to
slightly
reduced
budget
in
terms
of
the
impact
of
inflation.
How
far
our
dollars
are
going
to
go.
We're
going
to
depend
upon
our
existing
staff
to
help
us
with
catch
up
programming
and
maintenance,
but
I
don't
want
to
sugarcoat
that
this
is
going
to
turn
around
and
get
us
after
deferred
maintenance
in
a
meaningful
way.
Yeah
yeah
and
generally
bring
you
the
parks
and
outdoor
plant
in
your
consideration.
You'll
get.
M
E
M
L
Many
is:
does
it
just
cover
those
three
Fields?
Yes,
sir,
and
no
other
fields
across
so
at
some
point,
if
we're
gonna,
I
think
recapture
those
events,
those
tournaments,
you
know
we
either
got
to
start
looking
at
one
or
part.
We
got
to
start
looking
at
Summit
somewhere,
we've
got
to
start
building
in
some
turf
fields.
All
these
big
tournaments
are
going
to
go
where
they
don't
have
rainouts
they're
going
to
quit.
L
M
If
I
could
interrupt
with
one
thing,
I,
don't
council
member
go
too
far.
The
parks
Outdoors
plan
also
does
speak
to
turf
fields
at
the
DuPont
complex
as
being
a
regional
complex
as
well.
So
we're
going
to
take
a
holistic
view
at
the
system
and
we're
our
growth,
Sports
and
growth
activities
are
occurring
as
well.
We're
going
to
try
to
skate
to
where
the
puck
is
going
to
be
and
get
our
facilities
there
in
advance.
Well,.
L
And
that's
fine,
as
long
as
it
can
hosted,
tournaments
I
mean
it
has
to
be
in
the
wrong.
District
happens
to
be
exactly
where
I
wanted
it,
but
and
and
you
know,
and
we
are
creating
some
Tif
districts-
that
I'm
would
assume
that
we
could
maybe
capture
some
Tif
dollars
to
help
with
those
that
happens
to
be
one
of
the
facilities.
L
L
L
L
H
A
L
M
L
L
A
E
C
A
G
M
G
Yeah,
there's
a
pretty
big
budget
increase
for
there
and
and
I'll
piggyback
that
with
the
same
question
for
from
SlideShare
Hill,
and
that
is
how
are
we
tracking
the
participation
out
there
I
mean
that's
26
if
I
have
correct
tennis,
courts
and
I
know
that
UTC
is
a
major
player
in
that
relationship.
If
you
I'm
just
kind
of
getting
a
little.
M
Yeah
sure
and
I'll
set
up
Jason
before
I
start
just
a
reminder
to
the
council.
We
eliminated
fees
this
year
for
the
use
of
Champions.
So
now
it
is
free
and
open.
The
word
Club
probably
doesn't
be
fitted
anymore,
and
we
need
to
do
some
rebranding,
okay
to
make
sure
everyone
knows
they
have
access
to
it,
because
yeah.
M
It
feels
private
it
gives
that
Vibe
and
we've
got
to
do
a
better
job
there.
The
second
thing
is
it:
does
it
hosts
a
lot
of
inbound
business?
We
hosted
the
southern
conference
championships
two
weeks
ago
in
division,
two
or
division.
Three
I
get
the
division
screw
up,
Tennessee
Wesleyan
one
two
yeah
they
did
and
then
weekdays
again
just
like
Warner
those
are
mostly
locals.
Now,
here's
the
trick
trick
is
with
the
word
Club.
It
has
felt
very
exclusive
and
it's
felt
like
there's
a
buried
entry.
M
We
are
beginning
to
chip
away
at
that
and
we're
doing
that.
Programmatically
I,
don't
know
if
y'all
saw
yet.
We
have
our
first
activity
guide
out
in
over
10
years,
was
published
yesterday
and
has
Champions
and
has
our
facilities
finally
being
promoted
and
pushed
out.
I.
Ask
you
all
to
give
us
a
little
bit
of
Runway
here
to
let
that
get
spooled
back
up
and
reintroduce
it
to
the
community
as
we
go
and
I
believe
the
26.5
is
probably
making
up
for
Revenue.
We
lost
there,
but
I'll.
I
B
I
G
Last
question
Madam
chair:
if
I
may
have
we
have
done
an
inventory
of
tennis
courts,
correct
and
I
think
I
I
think
I
heard
a
number
somewhere
around
70
78
78
I
was
going
to
say
75
and
have
are
we
looking
at
converting
any
of
those
I
know
we're
looking
in
Lookout,
Valley
batters,
Place
yay
is,
is
on
deck
and
I've
been
driving
by
dailies.
People
are
super
excited
they're
emailing
me.
So
this
is
building
a
tremendous
amount
of
momentum
and
I
hope
they're
watching
be
great.
G
M
I
can
work
out
on
that
the
rest
of
the
afternoon.
Okay,
it's
really
cool.
For
the
first
time
we
have
inventory
the
condition
of
all
those
78
courts,
and
now
we've
tasked
our
Recreation
professionals
to
say
how
should
they
be
programmed
inbound
destination,
tennis,
local
tennis,
sport,
local
drop-in
use
and
then
other
team
supports
that
should
be
repurposed
based
on
low
use
and
they're
working
on
that
report
back
to
us
now
to
look
at
how
do
we
move
activity
throughout
the
community?
M
So
this
is
ahead
in
June
and
we're
just
pushing,
and
we
may
not
have
that
I
I
may
ask
for
a
little
Grace
on
that.
We
may
not
have
that
level
of
precision
down
to
what
neighborhood
course
we
flip
over,
but
we'll
bring
you
a
far
more
thorough
plan
and
understanding
than
to
build
it
and
hope
they
will
come
kind
of
Axiom.
Well,.
G
I
appreciate
y'all,
looking
at
it
number
one
and
paying
attention
to
what's
going
on
around
the
country
and
then
focusing
on
our
Parks
I.
Think
what
you're
doing
Scott
and
you're
your
team,
Jason
and
everybody
else
who's
I
mean
you're
moving
us
in
a
direction
that
I
hear
in
District
Four.
A
lot
of
people
want
to
go
and
they
want
more
I
mean
we're
lacking
in
spaces
out
there
we
have
one
passive
Park.
We
have
one
active
Park
coming
online.
That's
it
people
like
to
get
outdoors
and
enjoy
the
benefits.
M
A
K
F
A
K
So
so
that's
that's
a
big
piece
of
the
movement
and
the
other
is
last
year
there
was
a
one-year
sole
source
agreement
with
the
Chattanooga
Design
Center
studio
and
that's
under
contracted
Services.
That's
125,
000
reduction,
because
that
was
a
one-time
thing
and
that's
pretty
much.
The
highlights
from
there,
which
you
just
said,
yeah
Design
Studio,
was
a
one-year
sole
source
agreement.
K
A
B
A
H
Okay,
yeah,
that's
it!
The
fund
balance
is
it's
city-wide
and
kind
of
an
area
planning
process
already
so
there's
a
precedent
for
using
funds
for
that
type
of
planning
activities,
and
if
there
was
a
need
for
more
we're,
exploring
whether
we
can
do
if
we
need
to
and
can
do
the
Chattanooga
Design
Studio
again.

Fine,
so
the
neighborhood
services
is
now
in
the
equity
and
Community
engagement,
engagement
area,
and
that
was
six
positions
that
were
transferred,
there's
a
net
increase
of
four.
So
that
means
there
was
a
decrease
of
two
here,
one
of
the
items
that
I
just
just
to
know
what
it
was.
There's
a
line
item,
that's
only
twenty
five
thousand
dollars,
but
it
said
pass-through
Awards
and
this
is
for
the
neighborhood
partners
program
since
the
neighborhood
services
is
moved.
K
K
A
I
think
we
almost
need
to
see
with
all
these
positions.
All
these
functions
being
moved
around
to
better
serve
the
community.
Are
they
in
the
right
place
and
therefore
I
mean
I?
Wouldn't
have
any
questions
so
I'd
see
if
it's
working,
the
funding
on
Toto
seems
pretty
much
the
same.
It's
just
moved
around
councilman
Ledford
Madam.
G
Chair
as
an
example
of
neighborhood
services
that
I
have
actually
seen
firsthand
is
a
strong
effort
to
reach
out
to
council
members
and
engage
with
them
in
community
meetings
yeah.
So
if
this
is
evident
to
what
the
outcome
is
desired,
I
think
it's
working.
I
can
tell
from
my
first
hand
my
neighborhood
representative,
following
up
with
me.
Staying
with
me,
I
almost
feel
like
I
have
a
partner
with
the
city,
not
quite
as
as
impactful
and
strong
as
Kimberly.
G
Thank
you
again,
thank
you
again
for
your
help
today,
but
it's
nice
to
have
those
ties
start
and
feeling
like
you've
got.
You
know
more
tentacles
out
of
there.
You
will
Binding
Together
with
us
and
and
and
also
in
those
meetings,
I
found
that
they
were
very
well
received
by
the
constituents
that
felt
like
this
city
had
someone
there
too,
that
cared
and
I
think
so.
That's
evident
of
where
this
is
going
on.
I've
seen
it
to
kind
of
answer
your
question.
J
J
A
J
J
You
know,
there's
other
divisions.
We
have
essentially
put
into
other
departments
where
we
feel
like
it's
going
to
be.
Those
are
going
to
be
better
aligned.
So,
for
example,
code
enforcement
was
here
we
put
that
over
an
LDL
so
that
those
things
can
be
together.
We
just
talked
about
Neighborhood
Services,
putting
that
with
equity
and
Community
engagement,
where
that
can
be
better
aligned.
J
J
A
A
J
K
A
J
J
L
J
We're
gonna
need
more
time,
but,
yes,
we
can
have
ongoing
conversation
there
and
and
I
hate
that
Tony
and
Don
we're
just
moving
so
fast.
We
can't
get
people
in
here
fast
enough,
but
that's
fine,
but
Tony,
Don,
mayor
and
I.
All
four
of
us
talked
about
that
yesterday
and
and
Scott
and
I
talked
about
it
yesterday
as
well.
We
know
it's
an
issue
and
it's
not
one.
That's
easy
for
us
to
to
figure
out,
and
it's
one
that
we
are
focused
on
so
I'll
just.
A
E
E
A
J
Oh,
that's
a
great
question:
I
mean,
ultimately
these
were
together
and
then
departments
were
pulled
apart
and
so
we're
it's
really
coming
down
to
roles
and
responsibilities
and
figuring
that
out
so
okay
and
then
the
reality
of
having
you
know
up
to
20
different
locations
and
everyone
just
being
on
the
same
page.
You
know
hundreds
of
people
should.
A
A
A
E
J
J
L
L
J
J
Community
centers,
which
that
topic
I
feel
you
know
we
have
a
commit.
You
know,
Council
has
a
committee
councilwoman
kumrod's,
not
here,
but
she
leads
that
committee
and
there
should
be.
You
know
whatever
reporting
y'all
want
along
that
line.
That's
where
that
should
be
right.
When
we
get
into
the
nitty-gritty
of
roles
and
responsibilities,
how
well
people
are
planning
the
sandbox
I.
Think
I,
don't
know
if
all
of
council
is
that
interested
in
that
topic,.
M
A
Talked
about
Equity
is
a
big
problem
of
equity
of
services,
Equity
of
all
kinds
of
things
we
just
had
that
discussion,
so
whether
you
want
to
do
it
here
as
a
round
table
discussion
or
whether
you
want
to
put
it
off
to
a
strategic
planning,
I
can
tell
you.
I
can
absolutely
Echo
what
councilman
Henderson
is
saying
and
I
do
have
fall
Fields
attached
to
one
of
my
centers.
So
what's
your
pleasure
guys?
Do
you
want
a
strategically
strategically
yeah
strategic
planning?
All
right
I
will
tell
the
councilwoman
that
all
right,
Early
Learning.
J
K
I
A
A
What
we're
going
to
do
we're
gonna
finish
all
this
and
then
next
week,
we'll
do
other
funds,
capital,
budget,
additional
topics
and,
of
course,
I'm
going
to
be
talking
with
Council
I
guess
at
the
beginning
of
next
week,
how
they
want
to
massage
the
schedule
for
public
meeting
first
and
second
readings.
This
sort
of
thing:
okay,.
E
E
K
There's
a
net
increase
of
one
position.
The
focus
is
on
the
community
forward
school
program.
They
are
adding
a
little
bit
of
salaries
and
benefits.
There
is
a
reduction
in
benefits
for
health
insurance
elections,
which
we've
seen
a
couple
of
times,
some
additional
advertising
or
taking
over
the
Chattanooga
Basics
program,
some
additional
supplies
and
additional
money
for
space
costs,
with
your
move
to
mid-cal
Midtown
campus
Early
Learning.
In
a
nutshell,.
E
K
K
J
A
F

K
C
K
A
J
K
A
I
mean
you're
talking
about
shuffling
around
all
kinds
of
functions,
and
it's
this
is
a
biggie
yeah
all
right.
So
what
I
have
what
I
have
down
is
the
cost
saving
incentive
program,
the
library
agencies,
this
whole
aho,
Visa,
vis-a-vis,
Court
and
then
I
have
the
zoo
and
ball
fields
and
then
a
deeper
discussion
as
far
as
the
rec
centers
excuse
me,
the
rec
center
vis-a-vis
Community
Center
concept.
E
A
A
We
will
make
it
happen
all
right
and
Council
what
we
need
to
be
thinking
about
and
I'll
put
this
in
a
memo
so
because
many
of
us
have
gone
to
do
other
things
is
how
we
want
to
massage
the
schedule
for
the
public
hearing
now
Vicki
talked
to
me
about
the
first
and
second
reading,
and
what
do
you
need
for
the
state?
My.
