E
Motion
to
approve
five,
four,
four,
five,
four,
five:
five,
five,
eight.
F
A
G
I
have
an
amendment
that
we
were
working
on
over
the
over
the
weekend
and
I
want
to
thank
all
council
members
at
work
to
make
this
happen,
and
so
the
amendment
hope
everyone
can.
I
think
everyone's
aware
we've
been
working
on
it
pretty
diligently,
so
it
reflects
what
we've
been
talking
about
so
motion
to
amend.
E
Yeah,
so
my
thanks
go
out
to
councilman
wilson
councilwoman
strasberger,
our
council
president
councilwoman
gross
councilman
lavelle.
I
mean
councilman
coghill.
We
did.
We
worked
diligently
cooperatively
and
we're
able
to
fashion
a
an
amendment
that
all
members
agreed
to
and
I'm
happy
to
have
it
on
the
table
today
and
fully
support
of
it.
So
thank
you.
H
C
H
I
would
like
to
have
a
broader
conversation
about
backbone
money.
I
think
only
35
000
comes
to
my
district
as
a
whole
and
it's
much
less
than
any
other
districts,
and
I'm
fine
with
that.
You
know
providing
the
need
in
each
district,
but
I
have
carrick
up
there
and
they
applied
last
year
or
this.
You
know
for
this
time
around
and
didn't
score
very
high,
I'm
hoping
they
score
high
next
year.
H
So
I'm
hoping
we
talk
about
this
and
kind
of
restructure
it
a
little
bit,
because
I
have
a
neighborhood
that
I
think
can
benefit
greatly
from
from
having
some
resources
like
that,
but
didn't
quite
know
the
process
and
didn't
do
a
very
good
job
on
the
application.
So
so
with
that
yeah,
I
want
to
have
a
broader
conversation
about
them
fully
in
support.
Today,
thanks.
G
Yeah,
I
just
want
to
reiterate
some
of
the
points,
but
I
just
wanted
to
say
thanks
to
council
councilman
krauss
and
you
know
his
work
with
councilwoman
strasberger
and,
madam
president,
so
I
really
appreciate
that
working
through
that
and
you
know
helping
my
district.
I
really
appreciate
that.
Thanks.
G
E
You
just
one
brief
last
comment:
part
of
the
struggle
to
to
assist
hilltop
alliance
is
because
one
of
their
member
organization
is
carrick,
so
there
will
be
some
help
there,
but
anthony
or
councilman
cargo
I'd
be
more
than
happy
to
work
with
you
to
help
bring
resource
into
character,
because
it's
it's
more
than
deserving
and
I'd
love
to
be
a
part
of
helping.
You
do
that.
H
E
H
You
know
down
the
road
or
not,
but
yeah
again,
I
think
I'm
going
to
need
some
resources
in
carrick
for
next
year.
I
only
have
one
organization
at
35
000,
so
you
know
I'm
hoping
to
restructure
that
and
talk
about
that
further.
A
Any
further
discussion
being
none
all
those
in
favor,
say
aye.
The
bill
is
recommended
that
exhaust
our
agenda.
I
do
want
to
note
that
we're
also
joined
by
councilman
brooks
this
morning.
Any
any
comments
from
members
seeing
none.
We
need
a
motion
to
excuse.
The
absence
of
members
approve
the
minutes
and
adjourn
the
meeting.
B
B

K
C
A

Thank
you
as
we
join
together
from
our
remote
locations.
Please
join
me
in
the
pledge
of
allegiance
and
remain
silent
for
a
moment
of
silence.
I
pledge
allegiance
to
the
flag
of
the
united
states
of
america
and
to
the
republic
for
which
it
stands.
One

Our

We
have

councilman

Do
you
want
to
go
first.
B
B

Whereas,
after
securing
a
plurality
of
votes
in
a
close
election
in
willing
city
council,
ward,
3
rosemary
ketchum
is
now
the
first
openly
transgender
official
elected
in
the
state
of
west
virginia
and
whereas,
with
only
27
out
trans
elected
officials,
miss
ketchum
draws
attention
to
the
vast
lack
of
representation
of
the
estimated
1.4
million
trans
people
in
the
nation.
And
whereas
on
much
of
the
national
attention
of
miss
ketchum's
victory.
B
E
M
E
You
there
I
do
have
comment.
It
is
brief.
To
quote
rosemary.
She
said
that
we
don't
run
for
public
office
to
make
history.
We
run
for
public
office
to
make
a
difference,
and
if
history
is
made
in
the
course
of
that
action,
then
so
be
it.
I
I
had
an
opportunity
to
talk
with
rosemary
after
her
election,
and
I
just
I
called
to
congratulate
her
on
her
courage
and
what
it
would
take
to
be
a
young
transgendered
woman
that
would
seek
public
office,
especially
in
a
small
town
like
wheeling.
E
I
have
some
familiarity
with
it
because
part
of
my
mother's
family
settled
in
wheeling,
and
so
I
know
the
town
pretty
well
and
when
I
talked
to
rosemary,
I
said
I
just
assumed
that
the
seats
were
at
large
and
it
was
a
seven-member
council
and
you
needed
the
entire
electorate
to
be
able
to
achieve
a
seat,
but
it
isn't
it's
it's
council
by
district,
and
so
in
a
in
her
council
district.
She
was
able
to
achieve
elected
office
as
a
a
member
of
their
city
council.
E
So
I
just
saw
how
very
brave
I
was
of
her
how
very
brave
she
was
to
go
out
and
do
that
and
how
very
proud
of
her.
I
was
it's
a
wake-up
call
for
all
of
us.
E
There's
a
there
is
a
new
electorate
out
there
and
it
is
bold
and
it
is
looking
for
for
substantive
change
and
that
change
is
inclusivity
and
an
end
to
racism
and
an
end
to
prejudice
around
the
spectrum
and
it's
being
proved
again
and
again
and
again
by
the
people
that
are
being
elected
to
public
office.
And
so
I
just
didn't
want
the
moment
to
pass
without
publicly
acknowledging
her
as
a
council
and
then
we'll
send
the
proc
down
to
her
as
a
way
to
just
say.
Congratulations!
E
So
thank
you
all
for
for
being
a
part
of
this
and
allowing
me
to
do
this.
N
B
Film
number
598,
whereas
pennsylvania
health
secretary,
dr
rachel
levine,
the
highest
ranking
medical
professional
in
the
commonwealth,
who
has
appointed,
who
was
appointed
by
governor
wolf
and
unanimously
confirmed
by
the
legislator,
to
the
position
in
2018
and
who
previously
served
as
pennsylvania's
physician
general
was
recently.
The
intended
target
of
actions
meant
to
humiliate
her
and
all
members
of
the
queer
and
trans
community.
B
And
whereas
dr
levine
is
an
accomplished
physician,
a
graduate
of
harvard
college
and
the
tulane
university
school
of
medicine.
A
current
professor
of
pediatrics
and
psychiatry
at
the
penn
state
college
of
medicine,
a
matter
expert
and
active
advocate
for
lgp,
lgbtqia,
plus
individuals
and
so
much
more
and
whereas
her
steadfast
leadership
during
the
course
of
19
pandemic
health
crisis
has
been
integral
in
saving
thousands
of
lives
in
this
commonwealth
and
whereas
the
lgbtqia
plus
community
as
a
whole
experiences
violence,
isolation,
hatred
and
discrimination.
B
But
none
more
than
the
members
of
the
transgender
community
who
are
subject
to
simultaneously
racism,
homophobia,
transphobia
and
misogyny
in
their
personal
and
professional
lives
on
a
daily
basis.
And
whereas
the
bloomsburg
fair
stands
as
a
reminder
that
transphobia
and
hatred
towards
lgbtqia,
plus
individuals
is
pervasive
in
the
public
eye
and
continues
to
be
normalized
here
and
across
the
states,
whereas
neither
the
federal
government
nor
this
commonwealth
has
enacted
robust,
explicit
legal
protections
for
individuals
who
are
transgender
or
or
gender
expansive
against
discrimination
they
face
in
employment,
housing
and
health
care.
B
And
whereas
governor
wolf's
response
not
only
condemn
those
actions
but
asks
all
to
take
on
the
responsibility
of
stepping
in
when
they
see
transphobic
or
bigoted
actions
to
not
be
a
bystander
and
now,
therefore,
be
it
resolved
that
the
council
of
the
city
of
pittsburgh
stands
with
governor
wolf
and
health
secretary
levine,
including
of
the
vile
display
of
transphobia,
exhibited
at
the
bloomsburg
fair
and
acts
that
we
take
on
the
responsibility
of
speaking
up.
When
we
see
something.
E
Motion
to
approve,
second,
all
in
favor
hi,
brief
discussion,
please,
madam
president,
so
I
I'm
hard
pressed
to
find
someone
more
accomplished
than
dr
levine
and
how
lucky
we
are
to
have
her
at
this
heightened
time
of
crisis,
unlike
anything
that
we
have
ever
seen
in
our
lifetime
and
for
small-minded.
Bigoted
people
to
go
after
dr
levine
because
of
her
transgender
status
is
just
important
on
every
level
she's,
the
consummate
professional,
and
we
are
so
very
lucky
to
have
her
in
a
leadership
role
at
this
time.
E
And
so
when
I
read
the
report,
I
was
so
encouraged
by
governor
wolf's
response
to
what
happened,
and
I
just
wanted
to
codify
that.
This
council
stands
with
governor
wolf
and
with
dr
levine
in,
in
that
we
don't.
We
won't
tolerate
transphobia
on
any
level,
but
especially
in
the
case
of
someone
that
is
as
accomplished
and
making
such
sacrifice
and
such
difference
in
this
pandemic
that
it
made
it
especially
egregious-
and
I
just
needed
to
call
it
out-
and
I
appreciate
your
support
in
helping
me
to
do
that.
Thank
you.
F
I
I've
been
really
really
impressed
with
dr
levine,
but
I
just
have
to
say
that,
even
even
if
even
for
people
out
there
who
disagree
with
the
health
recommendations
that
she's
making
it's
completely
unexcusable
inexcusable
in
my
mind,
to
attack
her
for
who
she
is
and
that's
what's
happening.
I
mean
it's,
it's
the
bloomsburg
fair
incident
and
that
was
terrible.
That's
a
fair
that
I've
actually
attended
in
the
past.
I
went
to
college
up
near
there
and
yeah
I'm
never
going
back
again
unless
they
change
their
tune.
F
But
I
I
know
that
dr
olivine
is
taking
abuse
from
the
public
on
a
daily
basis
because
of
who
she
is
and
and
her
identity
and
it's
abhorrent
to
me,
and
I
you
know,
I
have
to
believe
that
those
who
keep
on
fighting
and
speaking
truth
to
power
in
this
regard
will
help
to
change
the
hearts
and
minds
of
people
and
that
this
changes
generationally
and
I
support
those
who
have
you
know-
are
consistently
raising
their
voice
in
support
of
transgender
and
gender
expansive
individuals
and-
and
I
stand
with-
I
stand
with
them.
F
So
thank
you,
councilman
crouse,
for
for
bringing
this
issue
and
to
the
council
and
allowing
us
to
support
governor
wolf
and
and
dr
olivine
in
this
regard.
E
Yeah,
thank
you,
the
other
members.
If,
if
I
can
just
add
an
inner
or
interrogative
there
yeah
it
is
you
know
it's
it's
it's
a
new
day
out
there.
There
is
a
new
electorate.
There
is
a
new
constituency
that
is
emerging
and
even
those
in
positions
of
power
that
would
like
to
circumvent
through
judicial
appointments.
E
We
are
showing
that
that's
simply
not
happening.
Some
would
argue
a
conservative
supreme
court
right
now
that
was
to
fulfill
supposedly
a
conservative
agenda
have
ruled
that
sexual
orientation
is
clearly
part
of
of
sex
when,
as
defined
and
that
on
a
federal
level,
we
have.
We
have
outlaw
discrimination
based
on
sex,
including
sexual
orientation
and
your
gender,
fluidity
and
and
who,
or
you,
may
identify
with
and
that's
coming
from
the
federal
government
down
and
that's
not
happening
in
a
vacuum
that
that
is
generations
of
people
working
their.
E
You
know
what
off
to
make
these
things
happen,
but
who's
bringing
it
across
the
goal
line
is
a
very,
very
young,
very
informed
and
very
active
electorate.
That
is
saying
we
no
longer
want
to
live
in
a
country,
that's
based
on
racism
and
transphobia,
and
homophobia
and
prejudice.
We
we
want
to
be
an
inclusive
nature,
nation
and
inclusive
culture,
and
we
want
to
welcome
and
respect
everyone
and
that
you
know
at
66
years
old
and
I've
been
in
this
fight,
since
I
was
like
20,
is
in
a
very
encouraging
sign
to
see.
H
I
just
wanted
to
compliment
and
commend
councilman
krause,
not
only
for
today's
world
council
and
just
for
you
know
the
years
I've
seen
him
on
council
you're
a
real
champion
bruce
for
the
lbgtqia
community,
and
you
know
I'm
glad
to
take
your
lead
on
all
those
issues.
So
thank
you
for
what
you
do
yeah.
Thank
you,
anthony.
J
B
B
Essential
that
the
voting
rights
act
is
expanded
ahead
of
the
november
presidential
election
and
whereas
to
honor
representative
lewis's
legacy.
The
council
of
the
city
of
pittsburgh
wishes
that
the
john
or
lewis
voting
rights
act
of
2020
should
be
enacted
into
federal
law
and
whereas
the
bill,
in
addition
to
other
measures
seeking
reversal
of
disenfranchisement,
would
restore
the
rule
directing
states
with
a
history
of
voter
discrimination
to
obtain
federal
approval
prior
to
changing
voter
laws.
B
And
whereas
the
council
of
the
city
of
pittsburgh
urges
congress
to
renew
the
voting
rights
act,
improve
the
voter
registration
process
and
eliminate
unnecessary
hurdles
and
now,
therefore,
be
it
resolved
that
the
council
of
the
city
of
pittsburgh
urges
the
u.s
congress
and
president
to
support
the
john
r
lewis
voting
rights
act
of
2020
to
ensure
the
upcoming
presidential
election
and
all
others.
Thenceforth
are
fair
and
uncorrupted.
L
E
J
E
Yeah
brief
discussion,
please
so!
Council
president
I've
shared
this
with
you
over
the
last
five
or
six,
maybe
even
seven
weeks
now
I
have
been.
We
and
the
electorate
of
african-american
leadership
throughout
the
hilltop
have
been
meeting
to
discuss
a
myriad
of
issues
and
one
of
them
being
the
police
reform
bills
and
other
things
we'd
like
to
see.
E
We
have
a
meeting
with
the
mayor
coming
up
here
on
thursday
morning
and
a
lot
of
the
discussion
that
we've
had
has
really
been
around
the
upcoming
election
and
protecting
against
voter
disenfranchisement.
E
So
this
action
was
especially
important
to
hilltop
leadership,
to
make
certain
that
we
were
vocal
and
public
about
our
desire
to
see
the
voting
rights
act
of
2020,
clearly
adopted
and
implemented
to
protect
voters
from
from
disenfranchisement
we're
already
seeing
from
the
highest
levels
of
authority.
E
Those
in
positions
of
power
wishing
to
sow
seeds
of
discord
and
mistrust
and
purging
voter
rolls
and
pretending
that
if
we
go
with
mail
in
voting
that
there's
going
to
be
extensive,
voting
fraud
in
trying
to
you
know
push
this
false
and
very
damaging
narrative,
and
we
want
to
push
back
against
it
and
we're
going
to
push
back
against
it,
and
we
we're
already
beginning
to
outline
a
plan
with
their
help
and
with
help
of
bob
in
my
office
and
russia
to
make
certain
that
there's
nothing.
E
That
impedes
anyone
from
wishing
to
register
their
vote
in
this
upcoming
presidential
election,
which
is
clearly
the
most
important
election
of
my
lifetime,
I
believe,
of
our
lifetime.
So
once
again,
I
just
appreciate
members
supporting
and
helping
us
to
carry
this
message
of
how
important
it
is
to
protect
voters
rights,
especially
at
this
very,
very
critical
time.
So
thank
you.
J
Thank
you,
councilman
and
any
other
members.
J
Okay
same
other
members,
I
want
to
thank
you
councilman
cross,
for
both
rules
of
council
and
in
your
proclamation,
and
also
I
do
have
one
more
proclamation.
That's
mine
to
be
run
into
the
record.
B
Okay,
council
president
kell
smith
presents
bill
number
600.
Now,
therefore,
be
it
resolved
that
the
council
of
the
city
of
pittsburgh
does
hereby
commend
pittsburgh.
Professional
women
for
their
service
to
small
businesses
and
entrepreneurs,
and
support
during
this
covet
19
pandemic
and
being
further
resolved.
That
the
council
of
the
city
of
pittsburgh
does
hereby
declare
tuesday
july
28
2020
to
be
pittsburgh.
Professional
women
day
in
the
city
of
pittsburgh.
E
J
All
in
favor
any
of
those
proclamations
approved-
and
I
just
want
to
acknowledge
that
the
work
of
beth
caldwell
who
lives
in
my
district,
who
is
involved
in
a
lot
of
the
women's
professional
women's
organizations
across
the
city-
and
she
just
does
a
tremendous
job,
and
I
just
want
to
acknowledge
her.
I
actually
asked
her
to
give
her
proclamation
for
you.
She
never
wanted
to
acknowledge,
but
finally
convinced
her
okay.
J
That
moves
us
on
to
our
next
order
of
business,
which
is
the
comment.
I
would
like
to
remind
everyone
that
the
rules
of
council
state
that
comments
are
limited
to
matters
of
concern.
Official
action
or
deliberation
which
are
or
may
be
before,
city
council
profanity
will
not
be
permitted.
May
we
have
the
first
speaker
please.
B
G
Sorry
I
was
having
trouble
with
my
mute.
I
have
these
messages
that
come
right
up
in
front
of
my
mute
button.
Yes,
if
you
could
please
not
not
in
its
entirety,
but
just
just
what's
the
text
on
the
screen?
Okay,.
B
Councilman
wilson
presents
bill
number
601,
whereas
sarah
jean
is
an
irreplaceable
wife,
mother,
community
leader
and
dear
friend,
whose
passing
grieves
us
all
in
whom
we
shall
all
do.
He
lives
now,
therefore
be
resolved
that
the
council
of
the
city
of
pittsburgh
declares
tuesday
july
28
2020
to
be
sarah
jean
herbert
day
in
the
city

pittsburgh.
J
G
Yes,
yes,
I
just
wanted
to
you
know
we
lost
in
my
district,
we
lost
someone
who
was
worked
tirelessly
at
the
food
bank.
She
was
called
to
work
there
20
years
ago
and
never
left,
and
especially
in
times
like
these.
G
B
Councilman
wilson
presents
bill
number
602,
whereas
across
her
long
life
in
pittsburgh's
north
side,
lillian
roush
has
always
given
a
friendly
word
to
everyone.
She
encounters
and
now
therefore
be
resolved
at
the
council
of
the
city
of
pittsburgh.
Declares
thursday
august
13
2020
her
100th
birthday,
lily
and
roush
day
here
in
our
most
livable
city
of
pittsburgh.
J
J
Oh
nice
happy
birthday,
yeah,
okay,
with
that
said,
we'll
now
move
on
to
our
public
comment
and
we'll
call
our
first
book.
I
already
read
the
comments.
Keep
the
please
keep
the
comments
limited
to
matters
before
council,
william
parker.
First
speaker,
mr
parker.
O
Yes,
my
name
is
william
parker
and
I'm
the
ceo
of
vince.
Then
I
just
wanted
to
start
off
addressing
ricky
burgess
last
a
couple
weeks
ago
on,
I
believe,
july,
the
14th
he
mentioned
that
someone
told
him
in
the
past
that
now
was
not
the
time
for
a
racial
equity
commission,
and
I
want
to
ask
him
well
taking
that
advice
has
put
us
in
a
situation
that
we're
in
right
now,
and
I
want
to
ask
him
what
will
he
listen
to
or
who
would
he
listen
to
next?
O
That
will
hinder
our
progress
and
how
does
a
man
of
faith
a
reverend
stop
himself
from
doing
what's
right
for
the
people
he's
been
elected
to
serve?
Now
I
reached
out
to
his
secretary,
which
her
name
was
alicia
and
she
had
no
infra
information
on
the
legislation
or
the
selection
progress
based
around
the
racial
equity
committee,
and
I
believe
that
her
lack
of
knowledge
is
a
direct
result
of
a
lack
of
leadership
on
mr
burgess's
behavior.
O
So
I
had
to
go
and
obtain
some
of
this
information
myself
and
what
I
found
out
in
that
legislation
that
was
drafted,
that
there
was
only
a
seven
person
committee
to
be
formed,
and
my
question
is:
how
do
any
of
you
expect
for
us
to
tackle
situations
such
as
systemic
racism
with
a
seven
person
committee?
O
I
I
don't
see
that
that's
achievable.
We
at
least
need
to
start
off
with
11
seven
government
officials
and
four
more
community
leaders
who
are
on
the
front
line
of
this
issue.
O
I
also
seen
in
there
that
there
was
a
clause
like
an
appointment
like
that
that
the
american
appoint
more
people
along
the
way
or
the
council
can
vote
people
in.
But
let's
get
this
right
the
first
time
it
should
have
been
a
legislation
of
11
people
to
be
on
this
committee
to
start
with.
To
begin
with,
I
also
want
to
mention
that
our
city
right
now
is
booming
in
a
technology
industry.
O
Okay,
so
we
need
more
tech
investments,
that's
what
we're
failing
at
right
now,
who
do
you
know
ask
yourself
who
do
you
know
right
now,
as
a
black
entrepreneur
in
pittsburgh?
Okay,
we
need
to
bring
more
awareness
to
this.
If
we
plan
on
getting
serious,
we
have
to
start
there
and
we
have
to
start
with
companies
like
innovation
works,
innovation
works,
you're,
all
aware
of
them.
There
are
government
funded
technology,
investment
firm
located
on
the
northside,
the
portfolio.
C
L
P
P
What
in
blue
bloody
blazes
is
wrong
with
our
once
daily
newspaper,
with
a
great
hero
for
the
people,
all
the
people
died
last
week.
There
was
nothing
nothing
in
our
paper,
television
news,
yes,
but
our
paper.
Finally,
after
scouring
the
sunday
paper,
I
found
a
small
article
from
the
associated
press,
not
our
own
writers.
P
P
P
P
Voting
ballots
by
mail,
in
other
words,
absentee
ballots
for
everyone,
and
when
this
has
been
done,
there
have
been
record
turnoff
turnouts.
Fears
are
justifiably
growing
about
the
strength
of
our
voting
systems.
Is
there
time
to
mail
ballots
to
everyone?
I
hope
so.
I
praise
him
in
the
2018
michigan
voting
voting.
P
P
J
P
M
Q
Q
Good
morning,
I
have
a
couple
questions
about
some
bills
that
I
think
the
council
should
look
at
before
they
pass
and
that's
bill:
zero.
Five:
three:
eight
zero:
five:
three:
nine
and
zero
five
four.
Oh
I've
talked
to
my
community
members
and
we're
a
little
upset
because,
first
and
foremost,
we
didn't
know
anything
about
these
projects
and
also
too,
the
ura
continues
to
buy
land,
but
when
they
buy
land
they
don't
never.
Q
You
know
they
give
it
to
the
developers
and
they
don't
never
really
include
any
of
the
community
members,
and
I
think
that
you
know
for
you
all
to
just
go
ahead
and
get
this
land
over.
I
think
that
we
need
to
have
some
more
conversations
about
this,
and
especially
I
was
looking
at
the
still
city
squash.
I
I
I
would
love
to
have
and
love
to
see.
You
know
things
built
for
the
children,
but
there
also
is
property
that
we're
looking
at
too.
Q
That
also,
I
know
some
of
my
community
members
try
to
obtain
and
could
not
could
not
get
it.
So
again.
You
know
before
you
all
start
passing
and
giving
all
this
land
over
to
the
ura,
because
when
it
wants
to
get
to
ura,
we
don't
have
and
we
don't
have
an
option
anymore,
and
this
is
what
we're
talking
about
the
inequality.
Q
Q
So
I
don't
think
the
ura
at
this
time
until
they
explain
to
the
community
or
talk
to
the
community
and
explain
exactly
what
they're
going
to
do
with
this
land
and
especially
the
kelley
street,
on
this
kelly
street
property
as
well,
because
that
property
there
were
some
people
that
were
trying
to
buy
some
of
that
land
and
was
not
able
to
do
it.
Q
So
I
don't
think
it's
fair
and
I
think
that
this
process
that
they
go
through
because
they
go
through
your
process
and
y'all
just
go
ahead
and
give
them
our
land
and
that's
not
fair.
Until
we
have
a
real
conversation
about
this,
this
should
not.
This
should
not
go
through.
I
understand
there's
letters
of
support,
but
again,
like
I
said,
is
that
the
people
we
don't.
Q
We
don't
have
that
opportunity
and
it's
taken
away
from
us
because
again,
y'all
y'all
just
go
ahead
and
pass
this
land
over
and
again,
like
I
said
with
the
ura,
they
don't
when
we
go
down
there,
we
try
to
you
know,
talk
to
them
about
some
of
the
land
that
they
have
given
some
of
these
developers.
Q
You
know,
like
I
said
we
don't
have
any
space,
though,
and
also
the
this
steel
city
squash.
Okay,
I'm
looking
at
something
here.
I
pulled
up
some
information
on
shetland
there's
a
structure
over
there
and
it
was
somebody
that
did
try
to
apply
for
that
particular
property
and
wasn't
able
to
get
it
so
again,
you
know
I.
I
think
that
council
needs
to
really
consider
looking
or
getting
some.
You
know,
engagement
and
and
and
having
some
residents
talk
about
this
before
the
ura
even
obtained
or
get
any
of
this
land.
Q
So
again,
like
I
said,
is
that
you
know
it's
just
unfair.
This
is
an
unfair
process.
J
Thank
you,
miss
brown,
and
now
can
we
have
randall
taylor.
M
M
M
M
The
report
tells
how
many
complaints
have
full
investigations
authorized,
but
it
doesn't
give
the
outcomes
of
those
investigations,
so
the
public
doesn't
really
know
if
the
police
are
being
disciplined
at
all.
Likewise,
the
other
entity
which
is
supposed
to
keep
the
police
in
check
the
office
of
the
municipal
investigations.
M
The
information
that
reports
is
cryptic
and
not
defined
from
what
could
be
gathered
from
their
2019
report
is
that
they
receive
three
times
more
complaints
about
the
police
than
all
other
departments
combined.
However,
most
of
their
cases
are
deemed
unfounded,
not
resolved
or
exonerated,
and
those
cases
which
are
not
are
just
given
this
broad
definition
of
sustained.
M
I
Council
good
morning,
good
morning,
council,
it
is
my
honor
to
read
what
paulie
biswas
of
154
home
street
had
hoped
to
say
to
you
today,
but
her
work
scheduled
this
morning
included
a
mandatory
conference.
Call
I'm
here
today
to
voice
my
support
for
the
historic
nomination
of
186
home
street.
I've
been
a
resident
of
lawrenceville
on
and
off
since
1985
and
I've
been
a
homeowner
and
resident
of
home
street
for
over
15
years
now.
I
I
So
I'm
here
to
say,
stop
let
this
be
the
stopping
point
for
crowding
our
neighborhood
with
more
thoughtless,
wasteful
unfitting
eyesores,
stop
letting
people
who
don't
live
here
or
work
here
make
decisions
that
affect
those
of
us
who
do
instead,
let's
please
move
toward
a
more
mindful,
maintaining
and
building
of
a
community.
Thank
you.
Thank
you.

Good
morning,
peace
like
love,
this
is
aviella.
I
am
aboriginally,

R
I
like
to
shed
some
light
on
an
issue
we
are
having
in
being
able
to
move
about
freely
on
our
land,
I'd
like
to
bring
light
to
49
us
code,
102,
the
department
of
transportation,
I'd
like
to
specifically
read
this
section,
marked

2..
R
Excuse
me
to
be
a
participant
in
any
negotiating
rule,
making
related
to
or
having
an
impact
on
projects,
programs
or
funding
associated
with

program.
Part

In
carrying
out

exercise
the
trust
obligation
of
the
united

to
indians
and
indian
tribes
to
assure
that
their

R
It's
very
important
that
the
police
officers,
as
well
as
the
judges
and
all
those
who
take
oath
on
the
constitution,
understand
that
our
land
and
our
ability
to
travel
upon
our
land
shall
not
be
infringed
upon,
and
this
message
needs
to
get
out
to
all
law
enforcement
across
the
city
across
the
state
across
the
country
in
general,
because
there's
always
those
who
feel
that
they
are
above

law
not
necessarily

The
ewald
house
is
the
gateway
to
the
well-maintained
homes
on
home
street.
The
potential
for
this
house
is
great,
although
I
would
prefer
it
remain
a
single
family
home
it
could
be
made
into
apartments
or
condos
a
bed
and
breakfast
or
maybe
a
community
meeting
place
like
it
had
been
in
the
1950s
and
60s
a
venue
for
weddings,
birthdays,
graduations
and
family
reunions.
S
The
historic
review
commission
and
city
planning
have
said
that
186
home
street
has
significant
history
and
worthy
of
the
city.
Historic
designation
lawrenceville
received
the
national
designation
in
2019
with
the
e
walt
house
contributing
to
that
honor.
How
can
we
be
talking
about
tearing
it
down
once
it's
gone?
It's
gone.
S
J
Calliope
lavent
lavendos
and
I'm
going
to
spell
the
last
name
just
in
case
I
mispronounced
it.
T
Good
morning,
council,
can
everyone
hear
me
yes
good
morning
great?
Thank
you.
My
name
is
susan
englert,
I'm
currently
a
resident
resident
of
central
lawrenceville,
I'm
here
to
urge
council
to
support
historic
designation
for
the
ewald
house
at
186,
home
street
I've
been
a
resident
homeowner
and
a
taxpayer
in
this
neighborhood
for
nearly
15
years,
watching
it
evolve
with
explosive,
steady
growth.
T
I
want
to
urge
council
to
consider
five
impacts
that
the
ruling
for
historic
designation
can
help
to
achieve,
and
importantly
to
help
set
a
precedent
for
future
rulings.
Number
one
is
advancing
sensitive
and
appropriate.
Neighborhood
development
number
two
is
retaining
the
character
that
attracted
development
in
the
first
place,
which
will
continue,
hopefully
to
be
critical
to
attracting
new
residents
and
businesses.
T
Number
three
is
gentrification
issues
and
the
associated
inequities
related
to
some
new
developments
here.
Number
four
is
consideration
for
putting
priority
on
community
needs
versus
developer
needs
and
finally,
number
five
adhering
to
the
lawrenceville
community
plan,
a
thought-out
and
and
comprehensive
document
compiled
by
the
community
with
explicit
comments
about
preserving
what
already
exists
here.
T
U
This
is
in
defense
of
our
ancestral
land,
our
territories,
and
we
are
speaking
out
against
these
abuses
of
extraction
extracting
our
resources,
our
minerals
from
our
land
and
then
turning
around
and
charging
us
for
them.
There's
a
very
erroneous
act
upon
our
indigenous
natural
resources
and
upon
our
land.
It
is
very
disrespectful
to
indigenous
people
to
extract
these
resources
without
our
free,
prior
and
informed
consent,
all
for
the
profit
of
municipalities
and
large
corporations
to
benefit
without
consideration
or
reach
back
to
indigenous
people.
U
There
are
forts
that
have
been
here
prior
to
colonization
prior
to
the
arrival
of
people
like
william
pitt,
who
obviously
have
come
here
from
england
as
it
is.
There
is
a
placard,
a
bus
statue
of
him
in
the
city
county
building,
and
it's
not
like
the
city
doesn't
know
of
this,
because
there
are
also
above
him,
embedded
into
the
pillars
of
the
city
county,
building,
an
image
of
an
indigenous
person,
whether
it
be
accurately
depicted
or
not.
U
C
V
Love
and
light,
so
I
would
like
to
begin
by
explaining
what
a
shaman
is.
A
shaman
is
a
medical.
What
you
would
call
a
medical
person,
someone
who
is
in
medicine,
we
are
in
natural
medicine
and
we
have
a
right
to
adhere
our
own
policies
on
how
we
heal
ourselves.
According
to
andre
article
24
right
to
traditional
medicines,
indigenous
peoples
have
the
right
to
their
traditional
medicines
and
to
maintain
their
health
practices,
including
the
conversation
of
their
vital
medicinal
plants,
animals
and
minerals.
V
V
This
propaganda
is
being
affected
on
my
people
on
our
people
and
we
are
not
a
part
of
your
citizenship.
We
are
not
a
part
of
your
governmental
structure,
we
are
our
own
nation
with
a
government-to-government
relationship
and
we
are
tired
of
being
cattled
into
your
issues
in
your
situation.
That
has
nothing
to
do
with
us.
We
have
been
healing
ourselves
since
time
immemorial
and,
as
a
matter
of
fact,
we
healed
the
colonizers,
the
europeans,
the
pilgrims,
the
amish,
the
africans
that
were
brought
here.
We
healed
everyone
because
you
knew
nothing
of
our
medicinal
plants.
V
These
things
will
be
addressed
expeditiously,
we
are
here,
we
are
not
going
anywhere
and
we
have
a
right
to
identify
as
we
choose
and
to
move
about
freely
on
this
land
without
mass.
This
is
an
offense.
There
are
many
of
your
organizations,
I.e,
businesses
that
are
also
underneath
the
corporate
structure
of
the
united
states
corporation.
You
call
the
united
states
government
and
they
are
an
error
in
violating
our
constitutional
rights,
as
well
as
our
universal
rights,
our
indigenous
rights,
our
aborigines.
We
are
the
aborigine
natives
of
this
land
and
we
will
no
longer
tolerate
this.
V
N
N
N
I
thought
it
then,
and
now
an
architectural
gem
and
in
need
of
restoration.
It
has.
It
has
significant
importance
to
pittsburgh's
architectural
history.
People
are
attracted
to
pittsburgh
because
we
retain
our
historical
bones
and
it
defines
our
city.
I
am
prepared
to
pay
the
full
market
value
for
the
evolved
house.
I
understand
as
a
businesswoman
that
an
historical
designation
should
not
harm
the
seller's
financial
remuneration.
N
If
I
have
the
opportunity
to
purchase
the
ewald
house,
I
will
restore
it
and
maintain
the
green
space
it
provides.
We
have
a
surplus
of
condos
and
town
homes
in
lawrenceville.
This
would
be
an
opportunity
for
the
city
to
show
off
its
unique
historical
character
as
an
art
gallery
owner.
My
intention
would
be
to
move
my
gallery
there
with
an
outdoor,
sculpture,
garden
and,
and
my
continue,
my
mission
of
showing
a
diverse
range
of
pittsburgh
artists
and
encourage
all
to
enter
postscript.
N
J
D
W
Hello,
can
you
hear
me?
Yes,
please
hi.
My
name
is
shirley
gorleski,
ireland.
I
would
like
to
speak
today
about
the
e
walt
house
at
186
home
street,
to
become
a
historic
landmark
of
pittsburgh.
I
encourage
the
hrc,
commission
and
council
to
be
in
favor
of
this
nomination
as
a
child.
I
have
many
foreign
memories
of
visiting
my
grandmother,
mary
gorleski
there
at
the
e
world
house
when
she
served
as
the
president
secretary
and
treasurer
for
the
american
union
polish
brotherhood
of
saint
joseph.
W
W
Please
take
this
as
one
of
the
many
examples
that
illustrate
both
the
historic
importance
of
the
e
world
house
to
the
lawrenceville
community
and
pittsburgh
community
and
to
the
individuals
within
these
communities.
I
hope
that
the
hrc
and
council
would
vote
to
conserve
the
e-wold
home
and
preserve
its
legacy.
Thank
you
for
your.

J
K
Very
much
a
few
weeks
ago,
I
was
proud
and
pleased
to
stand
with
members
of
city
council
to
pass
the
resolution
that
black
pittsburgh
matters
that
stands
on
three
foundations:
one
the
black
lives
matter.
We
must
protect
the
health
and
safety
of
black
people
in
pittsburgh
to
black
communities
matter
that
we
must
rebuild
traditional
african-american
communities
in
pittsburgh
and
three
black
wealth
matters.
K
We
have
to
increase
employment
and
entrepreneurship
opportunities
for
black
people
in
the
city
of
pittsburgh,
and
today,
in
this
moment
of
history-
and
I
think
mr
krause
was
very
eloquent
about
talking
about-
we
have
a
new
generation.
This
is
a
new
time
and
that
time
is
also
to
suggest
that
black
lives
actually
matter
and
we
as
a
council,
now
have
a
chance
to
prove
it
in
pittsburgh
and
that
is
to
protect
the
health
and
safety
of
black
people.
K
K
The
common
theme
involves
cutting
funding
from
police
department
budgets
and
instead
investing
in
social
programs
to
address
the
underlying
issues
like
mental
health,
affordable
housing
and
addiction
in
minneapolis,
for
example,
the
park
recreations
board
the
university
of
minnesota,
the
public
school
system
and
museums
and
venues
have
ended
their
limited
relationship
with
the
police
department.
The
baltimore
city
council
approved
a
22.4
million
dollar
budget
cut
for
their
police
department.
K
The
portland
city
council
cut
15
million
dollars
from
its
police
budget
earlier
this
month.
Five
million
of
that
would
be
put
toward
a
new
program
that
sends
unarmed,
first
responders
to
answer
homeless
calls
philadelphia,
canceled
a
planned
19
million
increase
for
the
police
budget
and
shifted
14
million
of
the
police
budget
elsewhere,
including
affordable
housing.
The
city
council
in
hartford
connecticut,
voted
to
cut
or
allocate
2
million,
reallocate
2
million
of
its
police
budget.
In
seattle,
every
department
budget
is
being
trimmed
by
about
10
percent.
K
Several
council
members
have
called
for
a
50
percent
cut
to
the
police
budget.
New
york
city
officials
imposed
a
hiring
freeze
and
shifted
roughly
one
billion
dollars
from
their
police
department.
Minneapolis
city
council
members
voted
on
their
first
courage:
trimming
more
than
1.5
million
of
the
department's,
nearly
200
million
initial
budgets
for
the
year.
Most
of
that
money
will
go
into
minneapolis
office
of
violence
prevention
in
los
angeles.
The
city
council
cut
the
los
angeles
police
department
by
150
million
in
washington
dc.
They
slashed
15
million
dollars
from
the
metropolitan
police.
K
Other
city
officials
are
calling
for
changes
in
various
cities,
including
san
francisco,
san
diego
oakland,
milwaukee,
denver,
dunn,
durham,
winston-salem
chicago
and
many
other
cities,
and
so
now
it
is
pittsburgh's
time
to
stand
up
and
say
that
black
lives
actually
matter,
and
so
the
first
of
the
bills
that
we
are
going
to
talk
about
today
takes
money
from
the
recruitment
budget
and
puts
it
into
the
stop
the
violence
fund.
K
Now
the
mayor
has
already
counseled
this
class,
so
this
does
not
impact
recruitment,
he's
already
canceled
this
class,
but
what
we
are
doing
is
is
making
a
statement
that
we
believe
that
money
should
be
put
into
social
service
programming.
I
think
there's
a
misunderstanding.
K
This
money
will
not
go
necessarily
to
fund
gvbi;
rather,
it
is
a
fund
to
fund
all
the
social
service
programs,
the
counseling
program,
the
homeless
programs,
the
mental
health
programs.
All
it
does
is
provide
a
vehicle,
a
place
to
put
the
money
and
a
venue
on
which
the
programs
can
be
decided
upon.
Then.
K
After
that
recommendation
it
must
of
course,
come
back
to
council
for
council
approval
so
places
like
when
I
talked
to
bobby
wilson
yesterday,
programs
in
elliot
and
in
in
in
in
the
north
side
in
belgium,
in
knoxville
in
homewood
and
hill.
We
all
agree
that
the
need
social
programming
in
the
past
we
have
given
money
over
100
million.
You
know
110
million
years
of
police
with
very
little
oversight.
K
We've
allowed
them
to
buy
with
very
little
oversight,
bullets
and
guns
to
hurt
people,
but
when
it
comes
time
to
put
money
into
programming
to
help
people
we
have
been
hesitant
and
so
now.
The
other
thing
is
this:
many
of
the
advocates
who
say
my
bills
don't
go
far
enough
are
calling
for
a
40
percent
cut
in
the
police
budget.
I
do
not
support
that.
Also,
it's
illegal
or
not
possible
in
my
research,
it's
very
clear
that
we
are
prohibited
from
firing
police.
K
K
The
state
made
that
put
that
in
our
second
class
charter
over
in
19
in
the
1950s,
but
what
we
can
do
and
what
we
must
start
to
do
is
have
a
pause
if
we
are
serious
about
cutting
our
police
force,
the
only
way
you
can
do
it
is
by
not
hiring
new
new
candidates
and
then
by
attrition,
the
police
force
will
be
reduced,
but
this
money
is
simply
the
first
step.
K
It
is
a
a
good
faith
effort
to
say
that
we
believe
in
programming
we're
going
to
take
this
little
bit
of
money
over
the
next
five
years.
Increased
it
year
by
year.
The
programming
will
be
decided
by
a
body
that
represents
the
mayor's
office
city,
council,
the
police
department,
public
safety
department
and,
again
those
recommendations
come
back
to
council
for
its
approval,
like
every
other
contract
and
or
budget.
It
is
a.
It
is
a
fear
process.
It
is
a
process
that
we
don't
have
now.
K
K
This
will
be
one
of
the
first
times
that
we've
actually
put
city
money
into
providing
these
programs
and
again
the
programs
are
not
to
fund
any
particular
project
or
any
particular
area,
but
for
us
to
be
creative
and
create
these
new
programmings
that
provide
support
and
reduce
the
underlying
causes
of
violence
and
of
inequity
in
our
city,
and
so
this
is
the
first
of
many
of
the
bills
and
I'm
hopeful
for
council
to
approve
it.
K
X
Thank
you
councilman,
I'm
sorry
to
be
digging
into
details
here.
I
do
agree
with.
I
think,
the
elements
that
you
just
gave
in
your
speech.
I
don't
I
am
not
clear
how
they
correspond
to
the
bill
so
that
other
cities
have
been
dramatically.
Reducing
the
police
budget
was
part
of
you
listed
through
the
cities
that
have
reduced
their
police
budgets,
but
you
said
something
in
between
there
about
this:
reducing.
X
K
X
K
K
K
It
does
that's
right.
This
bill.
The
mayor
has
already
canceled
this
class.
This
class
has
already
been
cancelled.
The
mayor
mayor
peduto
has
already
counseled
this
recruiting
class,
so
we're
shifting
that
money
from
the
recruiting
class
that
has
been
cancelled
as
the
first
fruits
into
this
fund
is
that.
X
All
along,
I
don't
think
so.
I
I
do
remember
that
we
you
mentioned
last
week
specifically
that
you
claim
that
we
cannot
actually
reduce
the
police
budget,
because
we
cannot
actually
fire
officers.
X
Which
isn't
exactly
the
same
thing,
because
not
entirely
the
whole
police
budget
is
in
salaries,
but
I'll
give
you
that
we
can't.
We
can't
slash
the
salary
budget,
aspiring
currently
employed
officers.
Yes,
we
all
agree
on
that
part
and
then,
but
I
I
and
I
remember
you
and
and
statements
from
the
mayor's
office
saying
that
we
can
certainly
reduce
our
recruiting
classes
right.
We
know
that
that's
true,
but
is
there
something
in
either
of
these
two
pieces
in
front
of
us
that
actually
moves
the
money
from
the
recruiting
budget?
X
K
I'm
pretty
sure,
that's
what
that's
triggers,
I'm
pretty
sure
that
money
that
200
grand
is
what's
left
over
in
the
recruitment
budget.
That's
left
over
that
won't
be
used
this
year
because
the
class
has
been
cancelled.
It
takes
that
money
as
the
first
fruit.
After
that
the
money
will
not
come
directly.
As
you
said,
it
will
come
as
a
percentage
of.
X
It
doesn't
have
to
be,
but
that's
all
we're
not
we're
doing
right
now,
and
so
some
people
will
be
happy
to
see
that
a
lot
of
people
will
not
right
the
people
who
have
sent
us.
The
thousands
of
emails
are
asking
us
to
literally
reduce
the
police
budget,
and
we
have
taken
to
do
that.
This
far.
That's
far.
K
We
have
a
choice:
we'll
have
a
choice
to
do
that
right.
We
as
council
will
have
a
choice
to
make
that
hard
choice
over
the
next
few
years,
the
next
few
weeks
and
next
few
years.
I.
What
I
want
to
do,
though,
is
to
have
that
conversation.
I'm
really
interested,
and
you
know
the
ones.
If
the
advocates
have
talked
to
me.
K
They
have
talked
at
numbers
like
40
50,
right
of
the
police
budget
they
want
to
reduce,
and
when
I
tell
them
that
that's
really
not
possible,
you
know
they're
not
pleased
with
the
answer.
I
think
we
have
to
have
a
conversation.
A
city-wide
conversation
of
what
policing
is
going
to
look
like
in
the
next
five
ten
years
right
and
it's
gonna
take
some
time
to
transition.
To
this
I
mean
it
won't
happen
overnight.
K
Right,
the
social
workers
won't
be
on
the
streets
next
week
next
month,
we're
gonna
have
to,
and
it's
gonna
be
hard.
It's
gonna
be
a
hard
conversation,
because
it's
it's
up
for
years,
we
believed
more
police
officers
made
our
community
safer
and
it's
ingrained
in
in
us.
In
fact,
you
know
darlene
harris
was
that
was
her
mantra
right.
The
former
mayor
that.
X
The
during
the
time
that
I
have
spent
on
counsel
right
and
you
and
councilmember
have
argued
and
taken
dramatic
action
and
focused
our
entire
city
on
filling
the
need
of
basic
housing
as
a
basic
need
right
and
affordable
housing,
and
we
can
thank
you
for
that,
and
but
we
also
have
other
basic
needs,
we're
all
we're
also
hearing
about
the
strain
that
people
have
on
from
food
around
child
care,
around
transportation,
certainly
jobs.
X
So
we
know
that
there
are
ways
that
are
a
broader
sense
of
security,
including
economic
security
right
as
well
as
physical
safety
from
crime,
so
that
that
we
have
these
things
in
balance,
I
think
we
have
that
conversation
to
have
moving
forward.
I
also
want
to
refer
back
that
when
we
discussed
this
bill.
It
was
during
the
post
agenda
and
I'm
looking
at
my
calendar
here.
It
was
the
morning
of
thursday
july
16th
and
we
have
referred
people
to
that
post
agenda
over
and
over.
X
I
think,
madam
president,
did
a
good
job,
giving
us
the
gamut
of
perspectives
from
basic
police
reforms
that
we've
tried
before
to
this
kind
of
stop
the
violence
interventions,
embedding
social
workers
and
kind
of
to
root
causes
of
filling
basic
needs.
But-
and
so
I
see
the
structure
of
this
trust
fund
and
that
kind
of,
like
second
position
of
the
stop
the
violence
interventions
that.
X
X
K
K
K
We
talk
a
lot
about
about
the
outreach
workers,
but
we
don't
talk
about
the
linkage
to
mental
health
professionals,
because
many
of
that
population
also
needs
counseling
therapy,
drug
addiction
reduction.
We
don't
talk
about
that,
and
so
and
unfortunately,
we've
not
funded
that
that
part
of
the
program
to
this
is,
for
this
extent,
but
to
actually,
as
you
know,
to
be
able
to
meet
the
needs
of
people
who
are
having
issues.
Most
of
many
of
their
issues
are
are
multiple
right.
They
are,
they
are
under-educated,
they
may
be
substance
abuse.
K
They
may
have
family
members
that
have
issues
and
so
you're
going
to
need
more
wrap
around
services
in
a
very
direct
way,
and
so
that's
that
that's
really
what
this
is
and
again
it
you
need.
K
This
money
will
hopefully
be
leveraged
with
other
money.
We
don't.
I
don't
expect
this
to
be
the
only
dollars
that
we
get.
I
hope
to
leverage
this
through
foundation
state
and
then
again,
this
group
of
experts
will
recommend
the
council
what
new
programming
will
work
and
it's
in
the
police,
public
safety.
The
mayor's
office
council
will
all
be
part.
There's
a
county
representative.
K
K
Well,
the
way
I
would
think
is
that
this
there's
a
panel
that
has
been
meeting
monthly
for
almost
a
year
now
called
the
stop
the
violence
group,
it's
representative
of
the
police
force
of
the
public
safety
force
of
the
county
of
the
mayor's
office,
and
my
my
view
is
that
they
would
vet
these
programs
and
make
recommendations.
I
think
it
would
be
an
interactive
pro
model.
I
think
that
if
you
had
districts
and
communities
that
needed
specific
things,
you
would
say.
K
Oh
you
know
like
we
talked
to
bobby
again,
we
were
talking
last
night.
I
think
that
one
of
the
things
we
have
not
a
good
job
done,
a
good
job
of
is
tailoring
programs
to
specific
communities,
because,
what's
what
what
the
hilltop
communities
need?
Oftentimes
are
kind
of
different
than
what
carrick
may
be
in
terms.
K
X
And
then
we
would
have
public
conversations
and
the
opportunity
for
more
specific
public
hearings
or
post
agendas,
with
the
experts
and
with
the
communities
in
order
to
say
which
kinds
of
programs
are
needed
in
which
places
that
would.
X
As
I
said
last
week,
this
was
moving
very
fast
I've
stained
on
it
last
week,
so
I
I
thank
you
for
indulging
me
for
these
further
details
and
we
didn't
have
the
post
agenda
yesterday
because,
as
I
said
last
week,
I
I
do
feel
like
we.
X
There
are
probably
lots
of
citizens
once
they
digest
this,
we'll
have
lots
of
opinions
and
that,
because
we've
come
up
on
this
re
council
recess
deadline,
I
would
prefer
that
we
have
a
few
more
weeks,
but
I
understand
that
you
would
prefer
to
have
the
vote
today,
but
it
seems
that
we
will.
We
will
have
further
conversations
about
these
things.
Ongoing.
K
X
I
feel
a
lot
more
comfortable
being
supportive
today,
because
I
I
do
feel
like
it's
well.
People
are
wanting
the
change.
We
want
them
to
feel
included
in
the
change,
because
that
is,
you
know
the
we.
X
J
Thank
you
any
other
members,
madam
president,.
E
If
I
may,
please
please
yeah,
thank
you
so
bill
410.
I
have
gone
back
and
forth
100
times
I
I've
yet
to
be
able
to
raise
my
comfort
level
to
voting
for
today,
and
even
more
so
confirmed
by
the
conversation
that
just
took
place.
I
think
we
may
be
putting
the
cart
before
the
horse
moving
money
before
we.
A
E
That
in
no
way
implies
that
I
am
not
supportive
of
the
actions
of
of
stop
the
violence
and
the
work
that
has
been
accomplished,
and
so
I
would
believe,
because
of
the
conversation
that
just
took
place
by
not
supporting
today
will
not
affect
it
if
it
does
pass,
because
it
will
indeed
come
back
to
the
council
for
a
more
detailed
discussion
and
a
better
understanding
of
exactly
where
the
funding
is
to
be
distributed,
and
so
on
that
on
410
I
I
have
to
I'll
be
voting
no
today
and
on
bill
512.
E
I
only
wish
to
bring
my
comments
of
last
week
standing
committee
meeting
onto
the
record.
Here,
though,
I
believe
that
advancing
bill
512
goes
directly
against
everything
that
we
should
safeguard
as
public
officials
who
are
charged
with
holding
the
public
trust
and
that
the
state
statute
that
compels
this
bill
to
advance
will
have
lasting
negative
consequences
for
employees
that
want
to
seek
relief
from
a
compromised
work
environment
and
at
the
recommendation
of
our
city
solicitor.
I
will
recuse
myself
from
the
vote
on
bill
512
today.
I
will
cast
positive
votes
on
all
remaining
bills.
H
Yes,
yeah,
I
agree
with
councilman
krauss
on
410.
I
thought
yesterday
was
going
to
be
very
important
for
me
to
get
answers
to
questions
that
I
had
in
order
to
have
the
comfort
level
to
vote
on
these
bills,
disappointed
that
was
cancelled
at
the
same
time.
You
know,
I
think
you
know
again
with
councilman
krause.
I
believe
that
we
need
social
service
embedded
into
everything
we
do
moving
forward.
I
also
believe
it's
going
to
take
a
lot
more
money
than
250
000.
H
I'm
not
looking
just
to
take
this
from
the
police
over
a
period
of
years.
I
think
we
need
alternate
sources
and
I
think
we
need
a
lot
more
money,
but
I
do
believe
in
the
concept
you
know.
I
hope
it
can
change
things,
but
I
also
will
be
voting
no
on
410,
but
but
I'm
in
the
spirit
of
it.
J
Okay,
seeing
none
then
I'm
going
to
add
mine.
I
want
to
thank
reverend
burgess
and
councilman
lavelle
and
I
believe
councilman
krauss
also
sponsored
these
bills.
Initially,
I
don't
know
which
ones
are
which,
but
I
do
want
to
say
that
I
appreciate
that.
One
thing
I
noticed
with
reverend
burgess
is:
if
anybody
sends
him
amendments
or
sends
him
concerns,
he
usually
addresses
them
very
well
and
tries
to
work
through
the
concerns
and
issues.
I've
told
him
from
the
very
beginning.
J
J
We
were
supposed
to
have
the
post
agenda
yesterday
with
the
county
talking
about
the
social
services
because
they
get
a
billion
dollars
for
social
services,
we're
talking
about
pennies
compared
to
what
they
get
and
yet
we're
talking
about
how
we're
going
to
make
a
change,
and
I
don't
think
that
amount
of
money
is
going
to
make
a
dent.
In
anything,
and-
and
I
heard
you
mentioned,
that
you
talked
to
councilman
wilson
and
he
spoke
about
a
program
in
eliot.
J
Well,
I
represent
that
area,
not
councilman
wilson,
so
I
think
that
might
have
been
a
slip
of
the
tongue
there,
hopefully
because
I
certainly
would
hope
that
others
will
not
be
having
conversations
about
my
district
without
me
being
a
part
of
them,
but
I
will
say
that
there's
a
lot
of
programs
in
our
area
that
we'd
like
to
see
some
funding
going
towards,
but
it
amazed
me
how
this
week
alone
we
had
a
last
week.
I'm
sorry!
On
friday
we
had
a
meeting
at
the
porters.
J
Everybody
knows
the
porters,
joey
porter
and
his
wife,
chrissy
porter,
purchased
a
lot
of
properties
in
sheridan
and
they
are
putting
in
a
tremendous
amount
of
programs.
Well,
one
of
the
people
that
came
to
the
program
was
ahn
and
gateway.
Health
and
empower
three
and
gateway
is
prepared
to
spend
a
ton
of
money
in
our
community,
making
a
difference
and
doing
the
thing
things
that
we
need
to
have
done,
and
I'm
wondering
why
you
know
we
should.
J
I
think
we
should
be
having
that
conversation
with
gateway
citywide
and
seeing
how
we
can
get
some
funding
for
some
of
the
programs.
J
But
I
do
think
that
we
didn't
get
the
opportunity
to
talk
to
the
county
yesterday
about
the
services,
because
if
they
get
that
type
of
money
and
we're
not
still
not
making
a
dent
in
the
services
that
we
need,
I
don't
know
that
this
is
going
to
do
anything
more
than
take
away
something
from
the
police
department
and
in
our
district
right
now
we
had
five
shootings
in
about
a
week
and
a
half
in
sheridan
and
the
community
is
making
all
these
strides.
J
All
these
changes
all
these
great
things,
but
yet
there's
still
this
violence
issue
and
there
was
no,
I
mean
what
I
heard
yesterday
was
that
they
were
going
to
finally
call
one
of
the
groups
that
we
fund
and
to
come
in
and
see
if
they
could
help
and
work
with
them.
But
at
that
point
we
had
already
gotten
some
information
to
the
police,
some
things
that
already
happened
and-
and
I
don't
see-
I
didn't
see
the
money
being
well
spent
in
my
district.
I
didn't
see
any
interventions.
J
I
saw
nothing
that
really
affected
any
kind
of
change
for
that
area.
I
think
I
and
it
really
and
to
be
quite
honest,
it
was
very,
very
upsetting
to
a
lot
of
us,
but
mostly
to
me,
because
I'm
thinking
we're
just
discussing
this
funding
and
I
don't
even
see
anybody.
No,
I
don't
know
when
they
get
called.
J
I
know
that
they
somebody
said
they
were
getting
called
in
yesterday,
but
I
what
I
can
tell
you
is
after
a
week
and
a
half
of
shootings,
almost
every
night
and
the
residents
have
had
have
really
had
it
with
our
attempts
at
what
we
think
is
the
way
to
stop
violence
in
the
community,
and
they
want
to
see
more
police,
not
less
police.
They
want
to
know
when
somebody
comes
they're
going
to
respond.
J
They
want
to
see
us
do
more
with
disruptive
properties
and
making
sure
we're
addressing
issues
of
quality
of
life
for
everyday
residents
and
there's
a
lot
of
things
that
people
are
saying.
I
mean
we
hear
people
coming
down
and
comment,
and
I
am
so
thankful
to
the
people
that
did
come
down
to
comment
and
did
talk
to
us.
I
wish
that
we
would
still
have
that
meeting
reverend.
I
talked
to
you
about
bringing
everyone
together.
J
I
would
love
to
have
that
meeting
and
talk
over
the
summer
on
how
we
can
do
some
of
the
things
you
want
to
do
and
and
yet
make
sure
that
the
residents
are
seeing
really
what
they
want.
The
problem
is
when
we
bring
the
groups
together,
we're
not
really
hearing
from
the
residents.
We
all
know
we're
hearing
from
organizations
we're
hearing
from
people
that
are
funded
and
a
lot
of
cases
we're
hearing
from
people
with
political
agendas,
but
we're
not
always
hearing
from
our
everyday
residents.
J
Now
councilman
krauss
has
had
that
opportunity
to
go
in
and
meet
with
a
group
of
residents,
and-
and
I
love
that
you
know
he
has
a
group
working
together
and
we've
done
that
before
in
the
past
too.
But
if,
if
we're
not
going
to
all
work
collectively,.
X
J
Each
of
us
have
different
constituency,
and
each
of
us
have
different
opinions
across
our
districts,
then
we're
just
really
hearing
from
the
same
organizations
and
the
same
people
and
as
much
as
I
appreciate
them,
because
they
their
voice
does
matter
too.
I
really
wish
that
we
would
hear
more
from
the
residents
of
this
of
our
districts.
I
really
wish
that
people
felt
more
comfortable
and
people.
What
people
told
me
is
they
did
not
feel
comfortable
coming
out
and
speaking
against
for
or
against
anything,
because
there
were
such
strong
opinions.
J
So
we
really
don't
have
a
real
gauge
on
what
it
is,
the
public
that
we
represent
overall,
really
once
unless
you're
out
there
talking
to
them,
as
many
of
us
are
so
with
that
said,
I
want
to
thank
reverend,
I
think
daniel.
I
will
vote
for
two
of
the
bills
today.
I
probably
will
not
vote
for
two
of
the
bills
today.
I
do
think
that
we
need
further
discussion.
J
I
think
we
heard
from
everybody,
but
we
did
not
hear
from
the
actual
fop,
and
that
was
my
fault
initially,
because
I
had
a
little
bit
uncomfortableness
about
having
having
the
fop
come
out,
and
then
we
found
somebody
who
actually
worked
with
the
activists
and
did
some
programming
who
offered
to
come
and
talk
because
he
actually
had
has
an
open
mind
and
would
like
to
see
positive
change.
J
But
then
we,
I
received
a
call
yesterday
from
the
activist
asking
from
an
activist
asking
that
we
postponed
the
meeting,
because
there
were
hearings
going
on
where
several
people
were
involved.
There
was
all
sorts
of
reasoning,
but
they
really
wanted
to
bring
different
people
to
the
table,
and
so
with
that
said,
we
never
got
to
hear
from
the
fop
and
we
really
never
got
to
have
the
discussions
that
we
really
want
to
have
councilman
gross.
X
I
apologize.
I
know
this
is
a
long
agenda
and
and
we're
having
a
lot
of
discussion
about
these
bills.
X
K
X
And
so
I
think
I
don't
I'm
not
saying
that
you'll
become
100
comfortable
with
this
councilwoman,
but
that
we
heard
public
concern
about
there
being
a
kind
of
some
out
of
sight
committee
that
would
be
not
visible
or
transparent.
Making
these
allocations
was
a
source
of
concern
to
the
extent.
I
think
that
we
can
guarantee
that
that
we
have
these
conversations
in
public,
that
there
are
council
votes
on
any
of
the
programming,
I
think,
is:
what's
what
people
need
to
hear?
X
What
council
members
need
to
hear
and
what
our
individual
neighborhoods
need
to
hear,
because
they
do
have
ideas
they
have
needs.
They
have
unfulfilled
goals
right:
they
they
they
and
they
don't
all
have
to
be
the
cookie
cutter
same,
and
I
think
that's
really
important
here.
I
also
want
to
take
a
little
bit
of
time
to
revisit
bill
0556
or
just
have
a
word
on
that.
That's
the
va
facility
in
councilman
burgess's
district,
the
one
that
is
being
restricted
for
public
safety
training,
and
we
talked
about
last
week
at
standing
committee.
X
I
had
a
bunch
of
questions
that
were
clarified,
but
I
I
want
to
reiterate
the
the
dynamic
the
tension
here
in
this
decision.
Is,
you
know
really
for
us
to
be
purchasing,
even
though
for
a
dollar
200
acres
to
or
165
acres.
I
can't
remember
exactly
the
acreage
to
be
committed
to
public
safety
training.
X
I
think,
is
not
what
a
lot
of
people
in
pittsburgh
want
to
hear
right
now
and
that
they're
being
such
a
they're
initially
such
a
giant
capital
budget
envisioned
for
that
site,
something
like
my
recollection,
60
70
million
dollars,
but
that
we
heard
last
week
is
that
the
option
is
just
to
say
like
no
thank
you
and
then
it
goes
to
the
speculative
real
estate
market
and
that's
a
downside,
because
we
are
hearing
a
lot
from
the
public
now
about
how
gentrification
is
part
of
the
formula
that
is
part
of
systemic
racism,
that
they
want
our
city
council
to
stop
doing
so.
X
You
know
so
we
should
obtain
the
site,
but
there
is
an
hopefully
future
options
and
that
we
can
appeal
if
I'm
recalling
correctly
to
the
general
services
administration
of
the
federal
government,
if,
as
moving
forward,
we
envision
an
alternative
use
for
a
portion
of
that
acreage.
Thank
you
councilmember
just
for
nodding.
Yes,
because
it
was,
it
was
a
complex
conversation
and
that's
why
I
want
to
kind
of
reiterate
it
for
the
public
so
that
to
say,
like
I'm
willing
to
vote
yes
today,
I
you
know.
X
I
wish
that
it
could
be
different,
but
this
is
the
way
we
understand
it
now,
but
we
do
have
there
is.
There
are
some
options,
at
least
that
we
can
pursue?
We
can't
guarantee
that
we
could
have
alternative
uses
for
at
least
part
of
the
site,
and
we
can
certainly
in
moving
in
forward
conversations
at
council.
X
You
know
we'll.
We
will
have
an
opportunity
to
decide
how
much
capital
investment
we
are
willing
or
are
not
willing
to
put
in
into
which
kinds
of
public
safety
training
right.
Certainly
there
there
are.
There
are
facilities
that
are
down
in
the
flood
plain
in
washington
boulevard,
where
people
have
died
in
floods
if,
if
the
public,
if
you're,
not
weren't
with
us
10
years
ago,
or
so,
you
might
not
know
that
that
really
need
to
be
removed
and
we
will
be
removing
them
to
the
site.
X
So
there's
a
kind
of
a
deep
history
in
that
conversation,
and
so
I
will
be
voting
yes
on
it
today,
but
I
just
wanted
to
to
reiterate
those
comments.
Thank
you.
G
Yes,
madam
president,
thanks
rest
is
sure
we
weren't
talking
about
elliot.
I
was.
G
Yeah,
so
we
were,
you
know
I
was
calling
about
the
stop
the
violence
fund
and
you
know
the
future
and
what
that
looks
like-
and
you
know
the
conversation
here
has
led
to
every
allocation
will
be
authorized
by
council
and
will
come
for.
You
know
for
a
vote
discussion
et
cetera,
so
that
that
you
know
those
opportunities.
G
You
know
I
don't
want
to
be
at
that
table
in
the
future,
to
not
really
have
a
deep
understanding
of
what
the
impact
of
these
groups
can
make,
and
I
mean
I'm
trying
to
make
my
best
effort
to
involve
them
in
the
conversation
I'm
having
trying
to
just
like-
maybe
I
might
I
may
be
over
speaking
here,
but
like
councilman
kraus
of
you
know,
I
already
have
some
task
force
that,
like
a
core
unit
that
we've
been
forming
of
neighbors
and
different
entities
in
one
area,
specifically
right
now,
one
area
that
has
been
problematic
on
a
lot
of
different
levels
on
all
sides
and
to
come
to
some
resolution.
G
I
see
no
way
forward
other
than
to
understand
all
the
resources
that
are
available
to
solve
some
of
these
problems.
So
I
really
appreciate
our
conversation
with
councilman,
krauss
and
so
yeah.
Rest
assured,
madam
president,
oh
not
not
talking
about
elliot!
I
did.
H
I
will
say
bobby:
I
stepped
foot
in
teresa's
district
once
before
and
I'll
never
do
it
again.
So
all
right,
but
but
on
the
va
site
you
know,
I
I
do
think
it's
and
I
don't
know
who
to
talk
to
about
this.
H
I
guess,
but
as
far
as
our
training
goes
when
it
comes
to
that
point
again,
I'll
reiterate
what
I
said
last
week:
I
don't
want
to
be
training
recruits
to
go
to
suburbs
and
I
want
to
work
something
out
where,
if
we're
paying
10
000
per
person
to
train
that
we
get
that
back
if
they
go
through
our
training
and
they
have
to
when
they
decide
to
go
to
bethel
park,
to
work
as
a
police
officer
there.
H
We
need
that
money
back
or
we
need
a
commitment
out
of
them
as
as
to
how
many
years
that
they
put
in
with
the
pittsburgh
police.
Otherwise
I
mean
and
I've
seen
it
and.
Madam
president,
you
were
with
me
at
the
fop
when
we
saw
the
alarming
rate
of
officers
that
we're
losing
to
suburbs
because
we're
training
them
and
it's
we
have
great
training
and
I
really
think
the
facility
will
be
a
fantastic
place.
H
I
just
think
we
need
to
get
rains
on
that
and
whether
and
are
we
going
to
open
it
up
to
you,
know,
suburbs
to
have
their
people
come
in
and
train
them
specifically.
So
I
have
some
questions
about
that
I'll
be
supportive
of
it
today,
but
I
really
think
it's
a
problem.
We
need
to
address
moving
forward.
J
Thank
you
any
other
members,
I'm
just
going
to
say
about
the
site
in
east
liberty
that
it
can
also
be
used
for
beyond.
It
could
be
used
for
some
of
the
social
service
programs
that
reverend's
discussing
today-
and
I
really
do
want
to
work
with
reverend
on
and
and
councilman
about
everyone
on
getting
a
program
up
and
running
that
benefits
the
city
of
pittsburgh
in
terms
of
social
services.
J
But
I
do
think
that
we
need
to
hold
have
some
conversations
with
the
county
in
regards
to
what
they're
doing
in
the
city
and
when
the
last
time
they
did
a
needs
assessment
for
the
city
of
pittsburgh
to
make
sure
that
those
billions
of
dollars
are
coming
into
the
city
of
pittsburgh,
for
preventive
programs
that
we
actually
need
to
see
here.
That's
it:
okay,
okay,
the
bills
are
now
ready
for
final
action,
all
that
favor
of
the
passage
or
whatever
their
name
is
called.
Those
opposed
will
vote
no
clerk.
B
E
Madam
clerk,
I
will
vote
no
on
bill
410.
My
comments
remain.
I
recuse
myself
from
the
vote,
which
I
believe
is
the
actually
correct
choice
that
needs
to
be
made
on
bill
512..
I
will
recuse
myself
from
the
vote
and
I
will
register
I
vote
on
all
remaining
bills.
Thank
you.
J
Own
all
bills,
except
no
on
bill,
1
410.
D
Bill
number
587
resolution
authorizing
the
mayor
and
director
of
the
department
of
public
safety
to
execute
relevant
grant
agreements
to
receive
funding
from
allegheny
county
health
department
to
develop
a
public
health,
informed
diversion
program
and
further
providing
for
expenditures
under
the
term
of
the
said
agreement
not
to
exceed
one
hundred.
Eighty
six
thousand
five
hundred
twelve
dollars
and
sixteen
cents.
K
K
K
I
want
to
say
thank
you
to
the
mayor,
the
veduto
chief
of
staff
gilman
and
to
our
solicitor
and
the
law
department
who
have
all
worked
and
for
you,
madam
president,
who've
all
worked
with
me
on
these
bills
and
we
have
gotten,
I
believe,
a
cross-section
of
comments
we've
gotten
to
where
everybody's
comfortable-
and
this
is,
I
think,
a
great
step
forward
in
our
city
that
we're
standing
up
and
making
this
bold
statement
that
black
lives
do
matter
in
the
city,
and
so
I
just
want
to
thank
everyone
for
our
participation
and,
as
I'm
sure,
councilwoman
strasberger
will
tell
you
as
we
talked
yesterday.
K
This
is
not
the
end.
This
is
the
beginning
of
a
long
conversation
of
many
actions
to
come
that
we
work
together
to,
and
I
think
that
mr
krause
I
mean
was
right
today
that
we
lend
we
end
discrimination
in
all
forms,
whether
it
be
the
lgbt
community,
whether
it
be
discrimination
against
women,
whether
it
be
discrimination
against
african-americans
or
any
other
oppressed
group
of
people
or
minorities,
and
so
together
we
move
forward,
and
this
is
a
great
day
for
our
city.
K
I
just
want
to
thank
everybody,
everybody
and
and
giving
me
the
opportunity
to
work
with
you
and
to
come
up
with
these
compromise
bills
that
we
could
all
support
and
agree
with.
Thank
you
very
much.
E
E
Thank
you
very
much.
I
won't
repeat
my
comments
on
404.
I've
made
those
public
already
405,
absolutely
100,
without
wavering
support
duty
to
intervene.
E
I
remember
watching
the
video
of
what
I
believe
to
be
the
murder
of
george
floyd
and
I
just
sat
there
in
complete
shock
and
disbelief
that
one
of
the
three
officers
that
were
standing
there
did
not
intervene
and
say,
for
god's
sake,
you're
going
to
kill
this
man
and
how
much
different
the
world
might
have
been
had
that
happened,
and
perhaps
there
is
a
silver
lining
to
this
terrible
terrible
travesty,
in
that
it
brought
to
light
some
serious
deficiency
in
how
we
police
and
what
we
should
be
doing
to
require
of
our
police
and
our
policing
system
so
without
without
second
thought,
absolutely
the
support
duty
to
intervene.
E
I
I
cannot
bring
myself
to
to
a
level
of
comfort
to
talk
about
reducing
weaponry.
E
I
you
know
when
I
came
onto
the
council,
I
know
many,
you
know
so
many
members
of
shift,
but
that
first
five
six
years,
my
my
everything
that
I
did
in
work
was
about
reducing
gun
violence
and
we
fought
it
in
every
way
that
we
possibly
could-
and
I
I
remember
the
opposition
and
how
rabid
the
opposition
was.
E
E
However-
and
this
is
a
big
one-
I
will
stand
on
my
head
to
discuss
and
create
sound
policy
as
to
when
those
weapons
can
be
deployed
and
what
constitutes
the
the
the
right
and
proper
situation
by
which
some
of
this
artillery
is
deployed,
and
I
think
that's
really
the
the
heart
of
the
conversation,
and
so
with
that
I
I
have
to
I
have
to
vote
no
on
406
but
487.
E
Absolutely
they're,
not
a
question
in
my
mind,
no
reservation
at
all
whatsoever
that
and
any
time
a
police
officer
would
use
a
person's
neck.
E
Airwaves
carotid
artery
to
subdue
a
sub
suspect,
for
any
reason
cannot
be
part
of
our
policing
and
how
we
police
people,
and
so
I
will
absolutely
be
voting
in
favor
of
487
and
again,
then,
in
the
remainder
of
the
bills,
under
public
safety.
Thank
you
very
much
for
the
time.
Thank.
J
Any
other
members,
okay,
seeing
that
I'm
just
going
to
say
the
same
thing
that
basically
that
I
can
I'm
definitely
going
to
vote
for
487
the
chokeholds
and
bill
405
the
duty
to
intervene,
and
I
want
to
thank
reverend
and
daniel
and
the
administration
and
everyone
who
worked
together
on
these
bills.
I
am
but
I-
and
I
really
do
want
to
thank
the
public
for
coming
out
speaking,
even
though
we
didn't
hear
from
everyone.
J
We
did
hear
from
people
who
were
knowledgeable
and
some
of
these
issues
and
honestly,
what
they've
asked
us
to
do
is
to
put
all
the
bills
to
recommit
all
the
bills
and
wait
until
we
had
some
further
discussion
and
so
there's
some
places
where
I
think
that
we
need
to
have
some
discussion
and
that's
the
one
with
the
military
did
the
demolition
and
in
the
funding.
Those
are
the
two
things
I
think
that
we
have.
J
I
have
concerns
with
only
because
I'd
like
to
hear
more
from
the
from
the
public
and
people
who
know
better,
but
I
do
think
that
a
lot
of
times
people
see
these
bills
and
hear
reverend
burgess
and
and
they
they
don't
realize
how
many
times
that
he
is
sometimes
also.
Not
only
is
he
trying
to
get
results
from
the
community,
but
he
also
sometimes
is
trying
to
get
results
good
for
the
city
and
a
lot
of
times.
We
don't
give
him
credit
for
everybody.
J
And
so
I
think
this
is
one
of
those
cases
where
he
sees
something
needs
done,
but
he's
going
to
make
sure
that
he
leads
in
a
way
that
we
get
things
done,
that
they're,
productive
and
helpful
for
for
all
parties,
and
as
I
mentioned,
we
have
not
heard
from
the
fop
or
police
officers
who
are
on
the
street,
although
we
heard
from
the
chief
and
the
director
and
the
command
staff.
I
think
that
they've
been
very
helpful
and
very
knowledgeable.
I
I
don't
know
how
any
of
us
who
are
not
on
the
streets.
J
Not
one
of
us
is
going
to
go
out
tomorrow
with
a
gun
or
a
badge.
Not
one
of
us
is
going
to
be
faced
with
a
gun,
and
not
one
of
us
understands
the
job
of
a
pittsburgh
police
officer
enough
to
really
make
these
kinds
of
decisions
without
hearing
from
them
in
terms
of
the
military-style
weapons.
They
were
the
weapons.
J
They
are
some
of
the
tools
that
they
used
to
stop
the
tree
of
life
massacre.
They
are
some
of
the
the
weapons
that
they
use
to
stop
the
shooting,
when
our
three
officers
are
were
shot
and
killed.
One,
including
a
guy
kelly
who
was
raised
in
my
district,
and
I
saw
the
pain
in
his
mother's
face
every
day,
and
I
think
you
see
the
shoulders
and
and
in
their
pain
every
day
and
there's
just
been
people
that
we've
seen
that
have
been
faces
now.
J
I
do
think
that
there
needs
to
be
a
policy,
because
I
do
think
that
there's
an
excessive
use
of
some
of
the
the
equipment,
but
I
also
think
that
they're
being
more
cautious
in
trying
to
make
sure
that
they
are
putting
into
place
some
cautions,
but
the
reasons
they
use.
Those
are
because
of
the
the
reason
they
use
the
the
swat
truck
or
things
like
that
or
because
there
were
there
were
reasons
it
wasn't
like
they
just
decided.
J
Okay,
we're
gonna
overuse
this
in
the
community
there
were,
it
was
a
domestic
call
that
ended
up
with
three
officers
being
shot,
and
so
you
know
I.
I
just
think
that
we,
unless
we're
willing
to
sit
there
and
learn
and
do
the
job
of
the
officers,
then
we
should
be
sitting
down
talking
to
them
before
we
do
this
kind
of
stuff
and
hearing
from
the
command
staff
and
the
director
and
the
chief,
that's
wonderful,
but
they
also
have
a
different
role
than
the
people
that
are
at
the
street.
J
Know
that
they're
working
with
the
administration,
their
job
is
to
make
sure
that
the
administration's
their
goal
was
also
met
and
and
at
the
same
time,
the
safety
of
the
public.
So
there's
a
combination
of
things
happening
with
them,
with
the
with
the
rank
and
foul
on
the
street.
Their
job
is
to
go
into
onto
the
calls
late
at
night
early
in
the
morning
into
bad
situations
into
into
good
situations.
J
I
mean
sometimes
they're
also
vehicles
that
save
people
in
a
lot
of
ways
not
just
or
intimidating,
and
I
mean
I
do
think
we
need
a
policy
and
I
hope
we
can
work
towards
that,
but
I
but
other
than
that,
unless
I'm
willing
to
go
and
get
on
the
street
myself,
I'm
not
comfortable,
not
moving
those
decisions.
H
H
J
It's
hard
to
do
these
meetings
like
this.
I
have
all
these
phones
open
and
laptops.
I
still
don't
have
everything.
Could
you
read
that
bill
404
again,
no.
E
Yeah,
so
you
know
councilman
or
o'con
or
coghill,
whoever
you
are.
Thank
you
yeah.
You
know
what
I
didn't
read
that
correctly
and
if
my
my
concern
previously
is
about
shifting
money,
especially
at
a
time
when
we
simply
just
don't
know
the
impact
of
covid
what
it
has
done
to
the
budget.
I
had
the
the
pleasure
of
speaking
with
the
mayor
at
length
the
other
night.
E
It
doesn't
appear
to
be
as
dire
as
what
I
thought
it
was
at
first,
but
things
are
fluid
and
could
change
in
a
moment's
notice.
So
I
will
vote
in
favor
of
404
to
create
the
obligation.
My
I
and
then
there's
plenty
of
time
to
have
the
discussion
afterwards
and
I
just
not
quite
there
with
the
comfort
level
of
actually
moving
money
before
we
create
the
fund.
So
I
will
vote
in
favor
of
that
and
then
in
I'd
like
to
further
my
comments
on
this
militarization
of
of
police
officers.
E
I
don't
want
my
comments
to
to
lead
anyone
to
believe
that
the
mindset
of
a
militarized
police
department
for
any
city
would
be
in
the
best
interest
of
constituency
several
years
ago,
when
police
officers
were
lobbying
to
be
able
to
live
outside
the
city.
Councilman
burgess
and
I
were
called
to
be
part
of
that
arbitrator
process
and
something
I
learned
from
the
councilman
which
it
rings
true
today,
and
I
never
forgot
if
you,
if
we
permit
police
officers
to
live
outside
the
city
as
an
example.
E
It
is
very
easy
to
create
occupying
forces
that
don't
have
clear
connection
to
community,
which
is
one
of
the
things
that
we
have
been
discussing
on
our
monday
and
thursday.
Meetings
with
hilltop
leadership
is
this
idea
of
of
returning
to
the
time
when
officers
actually
knew
people
and
how
to
recreate
that
and
part
of
it.
We
believe.
E
A
solution
to
that
is
that
when
a
new
class
comes
on
and
10
officers,
let's
say,
as
an
example
are
given
over
to
the
zone
three,
that
there
is
an
obligation
within
policy
of
the
department
that
those
officers
go
around
and
introduce
themselves
in
very
formalized
processes
to
community
leadership
and
to
community
organization
that
there's
a
clear
understanding
of
the
neighborhoods
that
they
will
be
protecting
and
serving
as
opposed
to
policing,
which
has
been
a
very,
very
important
realization
in
the
the
conversations
that
we
have
been
having.
E
So
the
the
idea
of
a
of
a
mindset
of
a
militarized
police
department
makes
me
extremely
uncomfortable,
and
I
don't
I
I
really
want.
I
not
really.
I
do
lean
heavily
on
the
protect
and
serve
as
opposed
to
policing
so
weaponry
and
attitude
are
two
completely
different
arguments
in
this
bill.
My
concern
is:
is
solely
around
the
firepower
and
and
our
constituency
and
police
officers
being
out
gunned
god.
I
hate
to
say
that,
but
it's
a
such
a
situation
that
we
have
not
created.
G
Yes,
thank
you
at
standing
committee
at
standing
committee
last
last
wednesday.
I
thought
we,
I
thought
we
did
air
out
some
of
the
the
concern
over
whether
or
not
this
disbands.
You
know
the
vehicle
that
was
used
in
the
tree
of
life.
The
you
know
in
that
horrific
incident
to
actually
save
you
know
to
protect
officers.
G
Is
that
I
mean
I
had
my
clarification
then,
and
I
was
you
know
good
on
it.
So
can
anyone
councilman
burgess.
K
Yes,
we
in
long
conversations
with
with
the
public
safety
director,
his
rich
with
chief
schubert,
the
reason
that
this
bill
was
amended.
None
of
the
equipment
that
we
need
to
respond
to
things
like
the
tree
of
life
are
banned
under
this
legislation
right,
and
so
we
have
a
process
that
and
then,
on
top
of
that,
even
though
we
are
saying
they
cannot
regularly
buy
things,
they
can
still
come
to
council
for
very
specific
things.
Let's
say
something
is
prohibited
on
this
list,
but
they
really
need
it.
K
They
can
come
back
to
council
and
council
can
improve
it
above
this
ordinance.
So
there
is
nothing
that
prohibits
the
police
and
that's
why
they
have
come
to.
You
know
support
it.
We
work
with
them.
So,
though
the
beer
is
not
the
beer
is
not
prohibited,
nor
is
the
armament
that
they
need
to
be
safe.
We
were
very
careful
in
that.
It's
really
what
you
don't
want
them
to
have
is
you
know,
rocket
helicopters
and
tanks
and
those
sort
of
surplus
military
equipment
that
was
designed
for
military
use.
K
That
really
has
no
place
on
the
streets
of
our
city
and
again
so
yeah,
and
so
that's
yeah.
We
we
have.
We
have
a
process
that
again
the
police,
the
police
themselves
are
being
are
supportive
of
this
and
that
we
also
have
if
something
happens
in
the
future,
with
any
equipment
that
we
are
that
this
bill
covers.
They
can
still
come
back
to
council.
We
can
have
that
conversation,
give
them
authorization.
G
Well,
thank
you
for
clarifying
that
and
revisiting
that.
For
me,
there
was
just
a
comment.
I
just
want
to
make
sure
of
that,
because
this
bill
is
important
to
me,
I'm
in
support,
and
but
I
also
at
the
same
time
realize
this
time.
You
know
in
this
time
that
you
know
there
are
these
situations,
these
horrific
events,
and
so
thank
you
for
clarifying
that
thanks.
J
Thank
you
any
other
members,
so
I'm
just
going
to
say
that,
yes,
I
understand
that
it
was
amended.
I
did
talk
to
reverend
yesterday.
I
still
have
concerns.
I
don't
think
council
members
are
police
officers.
I
don't
think
that
I
hate
to
see
any
politician
deciding
what
our
health
or
our
public
safety
should
be.
To
be
honest,
I
wish
there
were
some
independent
bodies
that
ran
them
instead
of
the
elected
officials,
because
it
does
become
political
with.
That
said,
I'm
just
going
to
vote
no
on
that
bill
today.

I'm
going
to
talk
at
a
frame
of
mind
today
on
bill.
492
just
want
to
take
a
moment
to
thank
councilman
wilson
and
all
members
that
were
so
active
over
the
last
couple
of
days
on
numerous
phone
calls,
and
they
recognized
the
leadership
of
you.
Madam
president,
in
helping
us
to
come
to
a
decision
that
all
members
are
are
comfortable
with.
It
was
a
good
exercise
in
relationship
building
and
I'm
glad
we
went
through
it
and
I
think
we're
all
the
better
for
it.
X
Thank
you.
I
also
appreciate
all
the
many
different
conversations
council
members
to
come
to
this
resolution,
but
I
want
to
add
that
I
I
think
it
isn't
done
and
that
we
are
recognizing
so
much
need
throughout
the
city,
of
course,
both
because
of
the
pandemic
because
of
the
the
many
many
years
of
austerity,
the
many
many
years
of
disinvestment
in
communities
that
we,
I
think,
need
to
expand
our
thinking
and
about
how
we
use
these
flexible
federal
funds
that
are
based
in
the
community
development
block
grant
transfers
that
we
get.
X
X
They
are
meant
to
be
allocated
by
city
councils
to
fill
community
needs,
and
so
I
think
we
need
to
continue
to
think
about
the
12
million
dollars
that
we
got
from
the
federal
government
this
year
and
next
year.
X
There
was
a
time
when
I
first
got
into
council,
where
these
funds
were
mostly
allocated
towards
infrastructure
and
because
we
had
such
a
small
capital
budget,
because
we'd
been
unable
to
borrow
from
the
bond
market
for
some
10
or
15
years.
That
is
no
longer
true.
X
This
council
has
approved
lots
of
bond
issuances
in
recent
years
and
we
have
I'm
I'm
gonna
say
you
know,
kind
of
back
of
the
envelope
penciling
about
a
hundred
million
dollars
sitting
in
the
bank
sure
allocated
because
the
bond
underwriting
for
which
we've
we
approved,
but
that
there
is
this.
If,
if
not
this
time,
when
should
we
be
allocating
more
of
these
funds
that
are
meant
to
fund
community
needs,
we
need,
we
should
be
talking
more
explicitly
about
what
are
the
most
critical
needs
that
we
need
to
fill.
X
People
are
lining
up
still
for
food
distributions.
The
federal
government
is
about
to,
we
hope,
not
cut
off
the
600
a
month
that
people
are
getting
for
their
unemployment
checks.
So
these
are
flexible
funds,
they're
meant
to
be
flexible
funds,
and
I
hope
that
as
when
we
come
back
after
recess
that
we
not
only
help
councilman
wilson
fill
some
of
those
needs
in
his
district,
but
we
really,
I
think,
have
a
public
conversation
about.
X
J
Councilwoman
anyone
else,
so
I'm
going
to
thank
councilman
anyone
else.
Yes,.
J
G
Thank
you,
madam
president.
I
just
want
to
thank
councilman
cross
for
his
comments
and
I
agree
it's
a
it's
a
good
exercise
to
end
on
going
into
the
the
recess.
So
thank
you.
Yeah.
J
Thank
you,
okay
and
then
I
want
to
thank
councilman,
labelle
and
councilman
burgess,
who
initially
talked
about
this
with
myself
and
and
I
asked
that
he
they'd
reach
out
to
councilwoman
gross,
and
then
I
understand,
councilman
wilson
had
some
concerns
and
it
ended
last
night
with
councilman
krauss
helping
to
work
through
some
of
this
stuff
too.
So
it
was
really
and-
and
I
can
tell
you
yesterday
alone,
I
had
68
phone
calls
between
these
bills.
I
just
wrote
it
down
because
I
counted
them
between
these
bills
and
the.
J
Police
reform
bills,
yeah
and
just
everything
happening
in
general.
With
the
post
agenda,
it
was
68
phone
calls
and
a
good.
Many
of
them
were
from
council
members
going
back
and
forth
in
the
administration,
trying
to
make
sure
that
we
were
all
you
know
working
through
whatever
concerns
we
had-
and
I
just
want
to
thank
everyone
for
for
working
on
this
and
councilman
wilson.
J
This
is
one
of
the
a
big
project
that
you
took
on,
but
councilman
gross,
and
I
have
been
talking
about
this
for
years
that
we
have
concerns
about
this
acro
funding
and
the
way
it's
done,
and
you
know
we
tried
to
change
it
this
year
and
ended
up
the
same
way.
So
I
said
I'd
love
to
see
this
go
towards
one
big
project.
Instead
of
a
lot
of
pet
projects.
That
really
doesn't
it
really
doesn't
yield
any
real
results
for
the
community
as
a
whole,
but
I
would
love
for
the
city
as
a
whole.
J
I
would
love
to
see
us
use
this
for
building
some
of
those
organizations
that
this
is
supposed
to
go
for
funding
it's
supposed
to
help
build
capacity.
J
Non-Profits,
but
what
it
does
is
go
to
the
non-profit
that
has
capacity
because
they
have
the
capacity
to
do
a
presentation
where
they're
not
in
profit,
that
needs
capacity
building.
They
don't
have
the
capacity
to
do
the
presentation.
So
it's
almost
it's
like
he'll
catch,
22
and-
and
you
know
we
almost
punish
them
because
they
don't
have
the
capacity
instead
of
rewarding
them
and
helping
them
to
build
that.
J
So
I
would
like
to
see
it
go
towards
if
we're
talking
about
funding
different
groups
that
help
with
anti-violence
I
mean
500
000
would
go
a
long
way,
a
lot
more
than
the
250
we
just
put
in.
So
I
would
like
to
see
us
do
something
like
that.
Something
really
significant
to
really
help
prevent
violence
in
the
city
of
pittsburgh
and
and
to
me
that
makes
us
a
more
livable
city
than
seeing
some
development
thrown
up
on
the
corner
here
and
there.
That
said,
any
any
other
members.
E
Okay-
just
very
very
briefly,
I
I
just
I
couldn't
agree
councilwoman
gross
is
smiling.
I
couldn't
agree
any
more
with
the
conversation
that
we're
having
around
these
funds.
I
only
wish
to
caution
that
you
know
my
my
so
much
of
my
role
in
this
was
to
protect
hilltop
alliance
and
the
service
area
that
they
provide,
which
is
staggering
in
in
the
terms
of
need,
and
I
I
don't
want
to
be
a
part
of
anything
that
hurts
the
capacity
of
an
organization
like
hilltop
alliance.
If
this
funding
went
away
for
them,
they
would
fold.
E
J
I
would
love
to
have
that
discussion.
I
think
that
if
organizations
are
depending
on
public
dollars,
they
need
to
do
better
in
doing
their
own
fundraising,
because,
that's
all
I'm
going
to
say
the
bills
haven't
received
or
I'm
sorry,
the
bills
are
not
ready
for
final
passage,
those
in
favor
of
vote,
ireland,
their
name
is
called
those
opposable
vote.
No,
the
clerk,
please
call
the
rule.

J

Thank
you.
I
would
like
to
offer
an
amendment
to
bill
559,
it's
really
technical
in
nature.
I
I
should
have
done
it.
I
should
have
offered
it
last
wednesday
and
in
the
florida
flurry
of
bills
and
activity.
I
missed
that
so
really
all
it
does
and
you
should
have
copies
of
it
with
the
newest
agenda.
F
But
all
it
does
is
change
the
chapter
number
from
172
to
169a,
where
this
language
will
live,
and
this
is
regarding
e-signature

allowing
for
e-signatures
to
be
able
to
be
used
in
lieu
of
physical
signatures
on

technical
in
nature.

smith
and

Thank.
D
X
Thank
you.
It's
been
a
very
long
agenda,
but
you
know
we.
We
made
some
comments
yesterday
about
the
importance
of
child
care,
and
I
appreciate
the
administration
sending
people
over
to
talk
about
how
they
will
be,
hopefully
partnering
and
changing
the
co-op
agreement
for
this
child
care
funding
and
we
look
forward
to
seeing
it
come
to
fruition
and
help
in
this
time
of
need.
But
I
appreciate
everybody's
support.
J

J
The
bills
haven't
received
the
legally
required
number
of
votes
are
finally
passed
and
that
moves
us
on
to
motions
and
resolutions-
and
I
have
a
meeting
announcement
council's
recess-
begins
tomorrow,
wednesday
july
29th,
and
will
end
thursday
august
20th.
There
will
be
no
meetings
tomorrow.
Council's
regular
meeting
council's
next
regular
meet
legislative
meeting
is
friday
august
21st
at
10
a.m.
Is
there
anything
for
members.
J
Nothing
well
I'm
just
going
to
thank
everyone
for
working
together
on
a
lot
of
really
really
important
bills
and
really
being
very
cordial
and
and
working
through.
Some
of
the
concerns
that
we
had.
I
want
to
thank
you
all,
because
I
know
that
this
you
know
everyone's
passionate
about
different
parts
of
these
bills
and
different
things
that
we've
worked
on
and
I'm
just
I
know.
J
Sometimes
we
get
a
lot
of
tension
between
certain
things
happen,
but
it's
because
of
our
passion
and
because
of
the
things
that
we
really
believe
in,
and
I
just
want
to
thank
you
all,
because
I
think,
through
that
all
we
we
did
a
really
good
job
in
getting
some
of
this
stuff
done
and,
as
I
mentioned,
I'm
still
willing
to
work
on
the
I'd,
love
to
work
on
the
bills,
the
demolition
bills
and
I'd
love
to
work
on
the
funding
bills
in
terms
of
the
police
reform
bills.
J
I'd
love
to
work
with
them
with
council
members,
you
know
and
councilman
level,
councilman
burgess,
but
all
members,
but
also
with
the
administration
and
the
police,
brass
and
activists.
Because
I
think
I
really
want
the
activists
to
feel
that
we
hurt
them
and
that
we
do
some
things
that
make
them
feel
valued
for
coming
out,
but
they
also
want
to
make
sure
that
the
our
police
officers
realize
that
we're
here
and
we
understand
that
their
job
is
really
difficult.
J
It's
not
something
that
I
could
ever
do
or
want
to
do,
and
I'm
sure
that
some
of
us
feel
the
same
way,
but
that
doesn't
mean
that
we
don't
want
to
see
our
constituency
devalued
either.
So
we
want
to
make
sure
that
we're
working
together,
and
I
think
that
we
can
do
that
in
pittsburgh.
We
set
some
standards
with
that
said,
can
I
have
a
motion
to
excuse
the
absent
members,
approve
the
minutes
and
adjourn
the
meeting.
