F
Thank
you.
I
just
particularly
remember
talking
with
the
chief
gilman
and
mayor
peduto
last
week
or
the
week
before,
whatever
whatever
that
session
was
about
how
the
cuts
to
crossing
guards
again
only
eliminating
open
positions,
but
still
it
was
the
elimination
of
a
lot
of
positions.
It
was
particularly
painful.
F
They
mentioned
that
we
do
as
a
city
have
trouble
filling
those
positions
and
I'm
glad
to
see
that
some
of
those
are
added
back.
I
think,
there's
a
lot
of
interest
in
these
positions,
but
then
there
are
some
requirements
around
them
that
make
it
more
difficult
for
people
to
take
those
positions
and
we're
always
looking
to
try
to
kind
of
untangle
that
problem-
and
I
just
want
to
say
that
I
appreciate
the
administration
and
working
on
trying
to
untangle
that,
and
I
hope
that
we
can
make
better
progress
in
2021.

Thank
you,
mr
chair
bill.
Maybe
you're
not
the
one
to
answer
the
question:
are

because
the

place

more
towards

funds
under
complete
streets
traffic
signal
replacement,
homewood
in
hamilton
from
zero
to
three
hundred
and
fifty
thousand
dollars.
F
I
just
wanted
to
recap
this
kind
of
administrative
capital
amendments,
so
it
looks
like
we
recovered,
basically,
a
bunch
of
line
items
that
had
been
initially
funded
with
paygo
and
we
were
able
to
do
those
projects
with
bond
money
instead,
and
so
I
just
wanted
to
say
and
acknowledge
that
that
was
you
know
well
done
so
that
we
were
able
to
recover
some
pay
go
money
and
also
I'm
supportive
to
the
using
operating
basically
rev
new
revenue,
which
is
pay
go
for
the
traffic
signal
replacements
in
district
9..
C
C
It's
a
decrease
in
the
office
of
equity,
professional
services
of
twenty
seven
thousand
five
hundred
dollars
and
an
increase
on
page
271
department
of
public
works,
operation,
professional
services,
twenty
seven
thousand
five
hundred
dollars
amendment
is
to
restore
some
of
the
funding
for
the
clean
city
commission
from
the
lgbtqia
commission.
Funding.
D
So
just
I
don't
like
the
sound
of
it
coming
out
of
the
office
of
equity,
but
I
asked
for
this
amendment
just
to
stabilize
and
equalize
funding
to
two
commissions
that
I
fought
for
in
last
year's
budget
to
be
funded
and
the
way
the
budget
came
over
to
us
was
that
the
lgbtqi,
a
plus
commission,
was
funded
in
its
entirety
and
the
clean
pittsburgh
commission
was
defunded
in
its
entirety,
and
so
I
just
asked
for
an
equitable
split
so
that
each
would
receive
half
funding
in
hopes
that
in
july
I
could
come
back
and
ask
members
to
support
the
remainder
of
the
funding
for
each
of
the
commissions.
F
It
I
just
wanted
to
say
thank
you
to
councilman
krauss
for
clarifying
that,
because
the
way
it
looks
here
on
our
screens
it
does.
We
heard
a
lot
of
testimony
about
increasing
funding
to
the
office
of
equity
and
this
looks
like
a
decrease,
but
it's
not
a
decrease
to
the
administration
of
the
office
of
equity.
It's
a
decrease,
as
councilman
crowl
said,
to
the
funding
to
the
lgbtqia
commission,
which
had
gotten
new
funding,
but
so
it's
decreasing
the
amount
of
funding
and
equalizing
that
out,
and
I
appreciate
your
work,
councilman
carlson.
B
E
Sure
capital
one
operating
amendment
number
five
presented
by
councilman
o'connor,
removes
4.15
million
from
the
mont
oakland
connector.
It's
the
entirety
either
2021
funding
through
a
series
of
imaginations.
G
E
A
H
A
motion
to
approve
brief
discussion.
Second,
second
yeah.
I
first
want
to
thank
my
office
as
well
as
our
budget
office
for
figuring
this
out
as
well
as
talking
to
the
administration.
I
know
I
talked
to
some
council
members
about
this
as
well
we're
just
seeing
with
regards
to
the
mon
oakland
connector,
not
enough
transparency
from
the
community
on
this
whole
project
are
not
for
the
community
from
others
pushing
this
project.
H
Our
funding
for
our
stormwater
went
from
41
million
to
16,
which
causes
a
big
issue
in
the
run
neighborhood
as
well
as
adjacent
neighborhoods
when
we're
talking
about
storm
water.
So
we
saw
this
as
an
opportunity
to
line
item
one
the
sylvan
avenue
trail,
which
we
actually
put
money
into
seven
or
eight
years
ago.
H
It's
only
a
hundred
thousand
dollars,
but
it
is
going
to
connect
the
upper
hazelwood
neighborhood
behind
the
gladstone
school,
which
is
part
of
a
huge
redevelopment
project
connecting
it
through
greenway
into
the
lower
end
of
greenfield.
So
we're
really
excited
about
that
for
biking
and
pedestrians.
So
that's
a
big
project
and
then
we
looked
at
it,
especially
while
we're
in
this
covered
world
and
once
we
get
out
of
it.
H
We
see
as
most
council
members
have
talked
about
a
number
of
housing
issues
that
could
come
up
and
we
saw
that
it
was
a
right
time
to
put
roughly
about
two
something
million
dollars
towards
the
housing
opportunity
fund
to
help
people
once
we
get
out
of
this
craziness
that
we're
in
and
mandates
that
don't
allow
people
to
be
thrown
out
of
their
homes.
H
So
I
want
to
thank
everybody
for
that,
and
I
also
want
to
thank,
I
think
it
was
maybe
september
august
councilman
lavelle,
as
well
as
reverend
burgess,
for
pushing
for
avenues
of
hope
that
will
benefit
a
number
of
people
in
the
african-american
community,
especially
in
the
business
districts.
So
we
thought
that
that
was
a
great
project
that
we
could
initiate
with
this
amended
funds
and
spread
it
out
across
the
city
of
pittsburgh.
So
thank
you
for
the
support.
H
G
I'd
just
like
to
thank
mr
chair,
councilwoman
smith,
I'd
just
like
to
thank
councilman
o'connor
and
the
administration
and
the
budget
offices
for
working
together
on
this.
I'm
I'm
glad
that
we're
putting
it
towards
projects
that
are
important
to
all
members
and
to
our
residents,
and
I'm
really
happy
that
as
an
oaklander,
that
this
is
that
this
is
something
you've
worked
on.
So
thank
you
and.
H
Thank
you
and
yes,
I,
if
I
I
believe
I
I
thank
the
administration,
but
we
were
talking
throughout
the
probably
thursday
night
through
friday
throughout
the
weekend
and
getting
the
details
set
aside,
because
I
think
the
mayor
will
agree
with
most
of
us
that
you
know
projects
like
this
that
have
a
that
could
have
a
discussion
years
from
now.
A
B
C
C
in
the
operating
budget
by
mistake,
I'm
in
the
middle
of
a
budget
hearing
this
is
this:
is
a
transfer
from
police
the
grants
account
which
houses
this
stop
the
violence,
trust
fund,
it's
a
reduction
of
five
million
three
hundred
and
six
thousand
five
hundred
dollars.
C
Those
funds
are
then
relocated
as
a
grant
line
item
on
page
214
in
the
public
service,
public
safety
administration
under
the
same
type
of
grant
line
item
five
million
three
hundred
and
six
thousand
dollars.
There
is
no
change
to
the
five-year
plan.
A
Thank
you.
I
just
wanted
to
sort
of
point
out.
The
intent
behind
this
is
as
already
sort
of
noted,
to
move
5.3
million
dollars
from
our
police
department
over
to
our
public
safety
administration.
A
We've
heard
a
lot
of
conversations
about
how
we
need
to
be
more
proactive,
how
we
shouldn't
be
using
our
police
officers
to
go
after
homelessness,
how
we
need
to
have
health
care
advocates
and
others
really
responding
and
doing
and
re-envisioning
how
we're
doing
the
police
work
and
these
dollars
that
we're
moving
over
are
explicitly
to
support
that
initiative
and
that
effort,
and
so
for
many
of
those
who
also
called
in
this
morning,
who
have
been
calling
in
for
the
last
few
weeks
who
have
been
asking
us
to
do
this.
A
This
is
city
council
doing
all
we
can
to
begin
re-envisioning
how
we
do
how
we
are
policing
in
the
city,
and
it
should
also
be
noted
that
this
5.3
million
dollars
is
going
to
go
up
over
the
years,
so
this
amount
will
increase
over
time.
It
should
also
be
just
pointed
out
that
these
dollars
are
also
going
to
go
to
prevent
the
group
balance
initiative
work,
make
it
a
full-time
work,
that's
occurring
in
the
city,
one
of
the
people
who
called
in
this
morning
spoke
about.
A
Why
are
we
funding
the
police
when
we're
at
a
20-year
low
in
crime
within
our
city?
Well,
part
of
the
reason
we're
at
a
20-year
low
is
because
of
the
work
we've
done
with
shot
spotter
one,
and
I
got
to
give
reverend
burgess
credit
for
that,
but
the
work
we've
done
with
our
group
balance
intervention,
and
so
we
want
to
see
an
even
greater
decrease
in
homicides
and
activity
within
our
city.
Then
we
have
to
continue
to
fund
these
sort
of
efforts
and
this
contin
this
does
that,
and
this
helps
us
begin
re-envisioning
police.
G
Yes,
councilman
mr
chair
I'd
just
like
to
also
thank
you
and
reverend
burgess
for
doing
a
lot
of
what
you've
been
doing
in
the
in
terms
of
the
anti-violence
initiatives,
but
I
also
want
to
say
that
I
want
to
make
sure
that
I'm
getting
phone
calls
from
people
who,
where
social
workers
don't
show
up
and
other
things,
people
aren't
getting
the
response
that
they
need.
So
I
just
want
to
make
sure
that
I
say
that
we're
going
to
be
watching
this.
G
F
Thank
you,
mr
chair,
and
also
thank
you
for
your
hard
work
on
you
and
mr
burgess
on
furthering
these
programs,
and
we
look
forward
to
to
seeing
them
grow.
But
could
you
speak
about
the
revenue
source
here?
These
are
not.
This
is
like
it
has
a
zero
budget
impact
and
the
account
is
from
grants
and
I'm
I
can't
recall
this
week.
I
think
we
were
calling
the
a
g
h,
n
grant
or
the
aj.
Could
you
just
tell
me
where
the
grant
came
from?
E
G
D
F
Got
it,
but
I
I've
been
getting
a
lot
of
inquiries
about
whether
this
is
taken
from
this
year's
police
budget,
and
it
is
not.
F
Police
budgets
coming
from
the
general
fund,
which
is
where
all
the
tax
rep,
where
all
the
revenues
go
into
the
general
fund,
so
the
police
budget
budget's
coming
in
our
general
fund,
and
this
is
separately
otherwise
coming
out
of
the
general
fund.
But
we
call
it
grants
because
we're
putting
basically
the
funding
into
like
a
program
concept
right.
A
A
C
This
this
does,
however,
reduce
the
police
budget
in
the
proposed
budget
sent
over
by
the
peduto
administration
by
simply
moving
that
funding.
F
A
Any
opposed
bill
it
amendment
is
approved.
Excuse
me
next
amendment.
E
Oh
sure,
I'll
take
this
one
councilman
gross
can
speak
to
the
purpose,
but
to
look
into
math,
restoring
one
of
the
cut
positions
to
city
planning,
adding
four
planners
to
city
planning,
also
in
pli,
restoring
four
of
the
removed
positions.
E
Actually,
I'm
sorry,
two
six
of
the
removed
positions
from
pli
and
adding
some
part
timers
and
parts
and
recreation
for
food
distribution
that
adds
up
to
about
four
million
dollars.
So
to
balance
that
there's
the
need
to
reduce
somewhere
else
in
the
budget.
E
In
this
case
reduction
of
nine
and
a
half
police
officers
from
the
bureau
of
police
for
a
net
reduction
of
fifty
thousand
dollars
to
the
budget
over
the
five
year
plan.
A
There
is
no
second,
therefore,
that
motion
fails.
A
Thank
you
so,
as
already
noted,
this
was
our
line
item
budget.
We
will
now
discuss
the
budget
in
this
entirety
at
our
wednesday
standing
committee
meeting
this
wednesday.
I
believe
that's
the
16th
with
that.
We
have
formally
ended
our
budget
hearing
process,
so
we
will
now
actually
need
a
motion
to
adjourn
this
meeting
so
moved.
Second,
all
those
in
favor
say
aye
aye.
