A
A
B
Morning,
my
name
is
mary
baronsfield.
I
live
in
lawrenceville,
I'm
speaking
on
6112
penn
avenue.
I
realize
this
has
been
a
long
process.
Thank
you
for
your
time.
As
was
mentioned
in
the
preliminary
hearing
last
week,
both
the
historic
review
commission
and
the
planning
commission
recommended
approval
of
the
historic
nomination
for
6112
penn
avenue,
based
on
the
nomination
material
and
subsequent
testimony
on
may
5th.
The
historic
review
commission
voted
to
determine
if
the
nomination
materials
met
criteria
for
landmark
approval.
B
Two
criterion
were
approved.
I
also
wanted
to
touch
upon
the
good
question
raised
last
week
regarding
what
role
ed
becker
played
in
the
building
supervision
department
at
mellon
bank.
Contrary
to
what
was
stated
last
week,
becker
is
not
best
equated
to
a
facilities
manager.
If
you
compare
the
other
bank
designs,
he
supervised,
while
working
for
mellon
buildings,
department,
you'll,
see
an
emphasis
on
design
and
technology.
Rare
and
facilities,
departments,
melon
and
becker
had
a
vision
of
architectural
technology
and
materiality
that
is
unique
and
rare
in
today's
commercial
structures.
B
The
buildings
of
his
tenure,
during
which
melon
bank
commissioned
architects
and
also
spearheaded
designs
of
their
owns
of
their
own
showcases,
concrete
paraboloid,
shell
structures
of
international
acclaim,
prefabricated
kit
of
part
bank
units,
paralleling
case
study
programs
of
the
day
and
more
materiality-based
structures
like
the
current
brick
collection
of
banks.
We
find
ourselves
discussing
to
clarify
the
squirrel
hill
branch,
the
uptown
branch
and
this
east
liberty
branch
in
question
hold
together
as
a
materially,
driven
subset
of
the
larger
architectural
melon
bank
collection,
sharing,
exterior
and
massing
details.
B
B
If
you
have
a
moment
one
day,
I
recommend
peeking
into
the
center
avenue
entrance
of
the
building
staring
back
at
you
if
it
hasn't
already
been
removed,
is
an
interior
for
your
sequence,
complete
with
interior
planters,
custom,
handrails
and
exquisite
book
match
marble
panel
panels,
irreplaceable
richness
of
material
to
end
I'd
like
to
emphasize
the
importance
of
familiarizing
oneself
with
the
2014
circulation
and
mobility
action
plan
prepared
for
the
east
liberty
community
by
e-l-d-I
and
cmu's
remaking
cities
institute.
The
study
specifically
notes.
This
intersection
is
one
of
the
most
important
pedestrian
routes
of
the
neighborhood.
B
C
C
C
My
husband
and
I
took
a
leadership
role
in
the
meetings
at
bonaire
school.
The
school
board
closed
the
school
anyway,
and
our
daughter
did
not
get
to
finish
fifth
grade
there.
That
was
2001
and
the
building
has
sat
empty
for
most
of
these
20
years.
Since
now,
the
school
board
of
directors
voted
to
sell
the
school
under
the
belief
that
the
developer
had
community
support.
C
C
This
big
misunderstanding
must
stop.
If
city
council
members
tell
the
school
board
members
that
they
should
revisit
the
decision
to
sell
the
building
they
may,
instead,
the
building
should
be
sold
to
the
city
for
one
dollar.
For
the
purpose
of
a
green
space,
the
misunderstandings
of
real
estate
professionals
and
administrators
might
really
be
conflicts
of
interest.
C
C
We
have
hundreds
of
names
on
our
petition,
which
states
I
the
under
sign
below
do
not
consent
to
a
multi-unit
property
development
at
the
bonaire
school
site.
Even
tony
maccesso
has
signed
this.
Do
the
right
thing:
by
supporting
stable
low
crime.
Neighborhoods
do
not
support
destabilizing
and
unwanted
changes.
D
You
I'm
brittany,
reilly
resident
of
pittsburgh
and
chair
of
the
pittsburgh
modern
committee
of
preservation,
pittsburgh
who
nominated
the
former
mellon
bank
in
east
liberty
for
historic
designation,
which
I'm
commenting
on
today
as
address
in
our
nomination.
The
former
mellon
bank,
completed
in
1970,
is
worthy
of
landmark
status
for
its
place
in
mellon
banks,
exceptional
architecture
program
leading
up
to
enduring
the
1960s
and
for
how
it
reflects
the
regional
and
national
shift
towards
styles
of
modernism
in
civic
and
commercial
architecture,
and
that
it
had
an
impact
and
influence
on
public,
modern
architecture.
Locally.
D
Council.
I
ask
you
to
acknowledge
that
the
title
11
ordinance
does
allow
for
the
hrc
to
discover
and
articulate
applicable
criterion
that
may
differ
from
those
which
were
suggested
in
the
original
nomination.
So
long
as
the
nomination's
original
content
supports
the
criterion
that
the
commission
finds
that
the
building
meets.
D
I
think
it's
short-sighted
to
describe
a
criterion
in
our
own
historic
preservation,
ordinance
as
a
quote
catch-all
criterion,
seven,
a
structure's
association
with
important
cultural
or
social
aspects
in
the
city,
state
region
or
country.
Our
built
environment's
ability
to
represent
cultural
and
social
aspects
and
events
is
a
very
powerful
thing.
It's
an
absolutely
irreplaceable
thing.
D
Thanks
to
the
content
in
our
nomination,
the
hrc
was
able
to
endorse
that
melon
bank
pittsburgh
institution
that
has
that
funded
the
nearby
east
liberty,
presbyterian
church
achieved
its
own
architecture
program
that
is
well
worthy
of
recognition
and
preservation
in
their
east
liberty.
Banking
branch-
that's
represented
in
a
structure
of
high
integrity
with
original
materials
and
appearance
intact
during
a
time
when
a
streamlined
style
established
a
refreshing
new,
aesthetic
for
everyday
use
and
it's
meaningful
to
pittsburgh
community
members
council.
D
D
When
and
where
was
the
community
meeting
to
discuss
this
potential
hosted
by
eldi
or
east
liberty's
rco
with
time
and
a
path
forward,
willing
developers
could
be
explored
and
be
made
aware
of
this
opportunity?
We
heard
from
nearly
a
hundred
more
community
members,
and
we
hope
that
you
heard
them
too.
Instead
we're
deferring
to
a
building
owner
who
has
not
been
visible
or
vocal
during
any
point
of
this
process
represented
instead
by
a
tenant
and
their
legal
counsel,
a
single-story
bank
has
a
single
use
and
its
added
parking
lot
with
less
than
10
spots.
D
E
Mom,
can
you
hear
me
yes
good
morning,
I'm
tony
masuso-
and
I
am
the
past
president
of
the
bonner,
civic
association
and
also
the
war
chairman
of
the
18th
ward,
and
I
am
here
to
ask
for
city
conference
with
anthony
coghill
has
been
helping
us
with
the
sale
of
honors
school
that
the
community
does
not
want
it
sold
to
be
made
into
apartment
buildings.
I
mean
there
was
some
miscommunication.
E
I
was
at
the
meeting
that
we
met
with
gregory
coil
in
with
pat
marceli,
and
he
was
called
at
that
meeting
with
the
five
of
us
that
had
to
go
back
to
the
community
for
community
approval
and
without
our
knowing
the
post
gazette
posted
it
in
the
papers.
The
building
was
full.
They
put
us
in
a
bind
with
everything,
so
we
we
we're
here
to
stay
in
with
our
community.
E
We
do
not
want
to
sold
amazing
little
apartment
buildings
I
agree
with,
but
with
everybody
else's
comments
and
with
anthony,
and
then
our
our
state
representative,
jessica,
venom
and
our
new
elected
school
board
member
jamie.
This
should
be
blocked
by
the
city
and
turned
into
a
green
space
for
the
neighborhood.
E
F
Hello,
can
you
hear
me
yes
great
good
morning,
I
also
am
speaking
in
favor
of
the
former
mellon
bank
nomination
that
was
had
the
public
hearing
last
week.
I'm
responding
to
a
few
things
that
were
said
at
the
hearing,
and
I
just
want
to
say
that
you
know
the
process
to
designate
a
building
in
pittsburgh
as
a
historic
landmark
is
a
demanding
one
and
is
a
bit
intimidating.
F
So
no
one
does
so
on
a
whim
in
comparison
to
other
cities.
Pittsburgh
has
a
low
number
of
individual
buildings
that
are
locally
designated.
F
You
know,
ideally,
though,
the
list
should
represent
a
wide
swath
of
buildings
that
tell
the
story
of
pittsburgh's
people
and
our
development.
It
would
be
an
outdated
notion
to
think
that
only
the
architecturally
grand
should
be
on
the
list.
Alternative
histories
and
were
not
vernacular
architecture
should
be
encouraged.
F
It
was
also
said,
the
public
hearing
that
the
bank
is
not
on
a
list
of
surveys
of
historic
buildings.
Therefore
it
does
not
mean
it's
important
was
the
implication.
F
Just
like
victorian
buildings,
which
were
once
out
of
favor
as
time
went
by
they've,
been
re-appraised
and
are
held
in
higher
regard
more
recent
buildings
that
are
from
50
years
ago,
are
getting
continually
reappraised
and
are
of
interest,
and
we
need
to
look
ahead
to
to
help
protect
them
as
well,
and
I
would
really
hate
to
see
with
the
loss
of
this
building
at
a
prominent
corner
in
east
liberty,
I
feel
like
we
lose
options
to
make
the
extra
space
available
to
possibly
local
businesses,
entrepreneurs,
community
groups.
F
You
know
this
is
just
one
potential
idea.
We
know
that
citizens
does
not
need
the
entire
building,
but
what?
If
we
all
came
together
and
talked
about?
Maybe
what
could
be
used
with
that
excess
space
and
there
could
be
a
way
forward.
I
just
wanted
to
mention
that
and
thank
you
for
your
time.
G
Hi,
my
name
is
john
rhodes
and
I
live
at
30
30
wigan
street
in
polish
hill.
I
serve
as
the
co-chair
of
the
housing
and
development
committee
for
the
polish
hill
civic
association,
the
registered
community
organization
for
our
neighborhood,
I'm
here
to
speak
in
favor
of
expanding
inclusionary
zoning
to
our
neighborhood
polish
hill
has
a
long
history
of
being
a
place
where
families
of
any
income
level
could
find
a
home,
and
we
want
to
make
sure
that
the
community
maintains
affordable
options.
G
Our
neighborhood
has
an
immediate
need
for
inclusionary
zoning.
Community
members
are
being
priced
out.
For
instance,
in
polish
hill,
the
median
sale
price
in
the
neighborhood
from
2015
to
2018
has
more
than
tripled
from
sixty
seven
thousand
five
hundred
dollars
to
two
hundred
seventeen
thousand
five
hundred
dollars.
Many
neighbors
know
someone
who
has
been
displaced
from
the
home.
They
were
renting
or
priced
out
of
the
opportunity
of
owning
in
their
neighborhood.
G
We
are
grateful
for
what
the
city
is
already
doing
to
help
ameliorate
this
problem,
most
notably
through
the
firesight
community
land
trust
development
project,
and
we
look
forward
to
continuing
this
kind
of
great
work
in
the
city.
But
that
is
one
solution
that
to
a
problem
that
needs
many
and
inclusionary.
Zoning
is
one
of
those
solutions.
There
are
imminent
developments
that
could
reshape
our
neighborhood
right.
Now
we
want
to
be
able
to
preserve
a
balanced
approach
to
development
that
ensures
people
of
all
income
levels
can
find
to
home.
G
The
first
ipod
councilwoman
gross
proposed
for
loan,
lower
lawrenceville
has
made
has
been
made
permanent
for
lawrenceville,
and
it
has
proven
a
success
already
creating
40,
affordable
units.
I
want
to
thank
councilwoman
gross
for
her
leadership
on
inclusionary
zoning.
G
I
also
want
to
thank
christina
howell
and
sam
spearing
at
the
bloomfield
development
corporation
for
their
help
in
helping
to
advocate
for
inclusionary
zoning,
and
I
will
also
especially
want
to
thank
our
sister
community
organization,
lawrenceville
united,
which
worked
so
hard
in
partnership
with
councilwoman
gross
to
bring
pittsburgh's
first
inclusionary
zoning
to
their
neighborhood.
G
Ever
since
lawrenceville
united
began
discussing
bringing
iz
to
their
neighborhood
years
ago,
we
in
polish
hill
have
discussed
at
numerous
community
meetings
jealously
about
bringing
izee
to
our
community
too,
and
we
hope
with
your
support.
Now
is
the
time
that
can
happen.
Thank
you
for
your
consideration.
G
I
also
want
to
say
that
we're
excited
about
the
proposal
supported
by
democratic
nominee,
ed
gainey,
about
bringing
city-wide
inclusionary
zoning.
We
want
to
make
sure
that
we've
got
coverage
in
our
communities
in
the
interim
before
that
potentially
comes
into
effect.
H
Hi,
my
name
is
sam
spearing.
I
work
as
the
housing
mobility
coordinator
for
bloomfield
development
corporation,
the
registered
community
organization
for
the
neighborhood
of
bloomfield,
and
I
also
live
in
bloomfield
as
a
renter
at
256,
south
mantilla
street.
I'm
here
today
to
speak
in
support
of
the
expansion
of
inclusionary
zoning
to
bloomfield
and
polish
hill,
as
proposed
by
councilwoman
gross
we've
seen
the
success
of
inclusionary
zoning
in
lawrenceville,
and
we
want
to
replicate
this
tool
for
bloomfield
as
well.
H
I've
seen
displacement
happening
in
my
own
building
due
to
rising
rents.
Over
the
past
several
months
in
february,
city
paper
reported
on
a
neighbor
in
my
building,
who
received
notice
that
the
rent
would
be
increasing
almost
40
percent
from
885
a
month
to
12.25
a
month.
Since
then,
the
majority
of
the
neighbors
in
my
building
have
been
told
that
they
have
to
move
out
at
the
end
of
their
lease.
Recently,
three
of
the
units
that
were
renting
for
under
900
a
month
in
february
were
listed
for
1700
a
month.
H
J
I
I
mean
okay,
I'm
danny
sinawalt
from
bonaire
city,
section
of
the
city
on
congress,
432
constant
avenue,
I'm
here
to
speak
on
the
opposition
of
the
sale
of
the
bonaire
school
for
the
purpose
of
rezoning
for
apartments.
I
I
The
city
picked
this
school
board
years
ago,
took
one
of
the
best
performing
schools
in
the
city
and
shut
it
down.
I
don't
know
why
they
did
that,
but
then
now
it's
been
their
problem
ever
since
they
shut
it
down.
Now
they
want
to
make
it
our
problem.
We
don't
want
the
problem,
please
support,
tear
the
thyme
and
make
a
green
space.
K
Hi,
my
name
is
allison
keating
I
live
in
manchester
neighborhood.
I
wanted
to
speak
on
the
proposed
bailout
for
the
parking
authority
that
you're
supposed
to
be
voting
on
today.
This
seems
to
be
a
really
really
egregious
idea
for
what
they're,
having
is
a
temporary
problem.
This
appears
to
be
a
somewhat
permanent
solution
to
that.
There's:
a
10-year
abatement
of
the
the
1.9
million
dollar
payments
in
lieu
of
taxes.
K
So
that's
you
know
about
20
million
right
there,
but
then
there's
a
permanent
change
in
the
in
the
meter
revenue
sharing.
So
it's
a
reduction
from
the
18.5
million
to
15
million
that
the
city
would
be
getting
each
year
and
instead
that
that
the
money
above
that
would
then
be
split.
So
that's
a
reduction
of
1.75
million
per
year,
but
that
doesn't
sunset
after
10
years
that
continues
on,
and
so
so.
K
This
is
really
deeply
fiscally
irresponsible
because
these
payments
are
received
in
lieu
of
the
parking
tax
dollars
that
were
diverted
to
the
city's
pension
fund,
and
this
also
comes
at
a
time
when
the
parking
tax
dollars
from
you
know
from
garages
has
decreased
during
the
pandemic,
which
again
is
a
temporary
problem.
K
So
the
assumption
that
this
ballot
is
necessary
is
because
parking
authority
provides
a
low-cost
parking
option
downtown.
But
when,
at
the
parking
authority
meeting
last
week,
they
had
a
they
had
a
resolution
where
they
allowed
the
director
to
actually
lower
the
rates
to
be
more
competitive
with
the
with
the
private
garages.
So
it
seems,
like
the
market,
is
actually
solving
the
supposed
cost
issue
downtown
temporarily.
K
But
we've
not
we've
not
seen
similar
enthusiasm
from
the
parking
authority
for
solving
daily
problems
like
the
difficulty
of
finding
parking
in
high
demand
areas.
You
know,
like
the
strip,
shady
side,
squall
hill.
You
know,
despite
copious
evidence
and
studies
that
have
shown
that,
when
you
dynamically
calculate
your
your
prices
in
high
demand
areas
at
high
demand
times
that
this
will
encourage
quicker
turnover
spaces,
which
means
that
more
customers
able
to
park
and
more
people
are
able
to
go.
K
Businesses
and
they've
also
not
chosen
to
dynamically
price
for,
like
special
events
on
north
side
like
steeler
and
pirate
games,
and
and
this
despite
the
fact
that
license
light
reading
technology
and
the
smartphone
payment
system
has
increased
the
meter
compliance
and
revenue
and
decreased
the
cost
of
enforcement.
K
The
parking
authority
hasn't
uploaded
their
annual
reports
from
2019
or
2020,
but
the
park.
The
report
from
2018
says
that
they
have
net
assets
of
134
million
dollars
in
2004.
They
only
had
44.6
million
this.
This,
of
course,
is
in
stark
contrast
to
every
other
city
authority,
none
of
whom
are
asking
for
funds
that
can
be
used
for
whatever
they
want
going
forward.
K
It's
also
notable
that
the
parking
the
parking
garage
at
ninth
and
penn
was
recently
demolished
and
no
one
has
really
noticed
the
the
head
of
the
cultural
trust
even
said
that
the
fact
is:
there's
ample
parking
downtown
the
director
of
the
parking
authority
in
that
same
next
pittsburgh,
article
said
that
he
generally
agrees
with
the
assessment,
but
they
don't
have
a
plan
to
change
their
development
priorities
right
now
and
he
thinks
that's
the
trend
going
forward.
K
A
L
L
L
A
E
M
I
am
one
of
the
many
residents
of
this
community
asking
for
your
support
of
a
green
space
in
place
of
any
kind
of
structure
at
the
bonnier
school
site.
Parking
is
already
at
a
premium
in
this
community,
especially
along
the
school
building
streets.
Are
the
residents
on
these
streets
are
resigned
to
on-street
parking
and
a
multi-unit
structure,
or
any
structure
that
is
proposed
would
only
create
havoc
and
a
possible
hostile
environment
among
residents
buying
for
a
parking
space.
M
Mr
coghill,
we
all
thank
you
for
your
support
and
understanding
the
community's
opposition
to
the
structure
or
any
structure
being
built
at
this
site,
and
we
ask
you
and
the
rest
of
the
council
for
your
support
in
continuing
to
help
us
with
our
need
and
desire
for
a
green
space.
Only
thank
you
for
everything
that
you
have
done
so
far
and
we
ask
for
your
continued
support
to
the
school
for
us
to
the
school
board,
to
ask
him
to
please
reconsider
the
proposal
that
stands
before
us
now.
A
N
A
Thank
you.
Our
first
committee
for
today
is
financial
law,
which
is
chaired
by
myself.
Our
first
supplemental
paper
is
bill.
1714.
P
Thank
you
appreciate
it,
so
I
am
wondering
if
we
have
someone
at
the
table
to
talk
about
kind
of
the
intent
here
kind
of
if
we
could
just
get
an
explanation
of
why
these
contracts,
you
know,
what's
the
problem
with
the
way
we're
doing
it
now,
what's
the
change
and
how
that
might
benefit
parks
and
rec,
that
would
be
awesome.
A
P
There
you
are,
thank
you,
thank
you.
So
much
can
you
identify
yourselves
for
our
listeners.
P
Great
and
luanne,
I
was
just
asking
for
a
little
bit
of
of
a
picture
of
kind
of
like
what
is
the
problem
been?
What
kinds
of
organizations
are
you
trying
to
do,
contracts
with
and
how
this
change
will
help?
Well,.
Q
We've
been
working
for
months
now,
with
a
law
department
and
with
the
office
of
procurement,
and
what
we're
doing
here
today
is
we're
just
trying
to
amend
the
city
code
so
that
we
can
still
come
before
you
with
the
a
generic
we
take.
We
call
the
generic
legislation,
so
we
can
work
with
the
performers
and
the
artist
tennis
instructors
like
we
always
do
without
having
to
go
and
do
rfps
with
each
one
of
them.
Q
The
way
we
were
doing
it,
the
law,
department
and
procurement
felt
that
the
code
needed
to
be
changed.
The
code
161,
I
believe,
0.02
that
needed
to
be
amended
and
we've
been
working
on
it
for
some
time
now
and
by
amending
the
city
code.
This
will
allow
us
now
to
continue
to
come
before
you
with
the.
Q
What
I'm
referring
to
is
the
generic
instru
legislation
for
the
instructors
and
performers
for
10,
000
or
less
like
we
did
earlier
this
year
and
the
code
will
make
it
possible
for
us
to
continue
to
use
that
piece
of
legislation
and
it'll
change.
The
language
in
the
code,
so
we
won't,
have
to
go
and
do
rfps
for
artists
tennis
instructors,
because
that's
what
it
was
going
to
be
if
we
didn't
amend
the
code,
which
is
what
we're
asking
for
today,.
P
Yeah
so
yeah
glenn,
I
don't
mean
to
put
you
on
the
spot.
Thank
you
for
for
explaining
that.
But
I
I
was.
I
was
kind
of
looking
from
someone
from
omb,
but
at
least
I
I
understand
your
side,
okay
story
and
I
think
it's
important
for
people
to
understand
kind
of
the
things
that
you
contract
with
from
parks
and
rec.
P
So
you
were
talking
about
performers
and
could
you
run
through
that
list
again
because
I
think
it's
really
important
for
people
to
understand
kind
of
all
you
scramble
to
do
in
the
summers
in
the
legislation.
I
see
performers,
instructors,
artists,
artists,.
Q
Referees,
yes,
a
lot
of
mostly
a
lot
of
tennis
instructors.
We
do
we
use
like
in
the
summer
quite
a
bit.
We
could
use
up
to
like
20
tennis
instructors
that
were
writing
these
mini
agreements
for
they're,
like
under
ten
thousand
dollars
every
year
that
we
write.
We've
been
doing
this
for
like
20
years
or
so
now
we
do
little
instructors
for
balloon
artists
face
painters.
Q
We
have
people
that
work
at
our
little
summer
camps
that
we
maybe
write
ones
for
maybe
five
thousand
dollars
for
little
science
projects
that
come
in
and
do
or
you'll
see
our
community
enrichment
programs
roving
our
cards
people
come
and
do
face,
painting
we
write
little
contracts
for
them,
there's
to
name
a
few.
P
So
the
way
I'm
reading
this
it
allows
you
to
bundle
some
contracts
together,
as
long
as
it
doesn't
exceed
the
ten
thousand
dollars.
P
Q
Q
P
I'm
reading
the
amendment
I'm
reading
the
code
amendment
I've
got
it
up
on
my
screen.
I
can
see
the
words
in
the
code
that
you're
presenting
okay,
yeah
and
so
and
what
it
allows
you
to
do
is
to
have
an
annual
resolution
that
has
multiple
contracts
in
one
resolution.
P
Yes,
yes,
correct,
correct
exactly
it
says,
correct
the
stated
not
to
exceed
amount
for
each
and
specifying
the
account
from
which
the
payments
may
be
made.
So
that
way,
we're
not
getting
a
resolution
for
each
tennis
instructor,
correct.
Q
P
Yes,
correct:
okay,
I
just
wanted
to
make
sure
that
people
understood
that
I'm
always
a
little
cautious
when
we
change
chapter
161
and
I
think
there
are
probably
some
things
that
need
a
lot
more
conversation,
but
this
one
looks
perfectly
okay,
okay,
first,
you
can
tell
okay
thanks
elaine,
that's
right!.
C
C
P
A
A
R
Oh
councilman,
wilson,
chair
first
I'd
like
to
offer
him
make
an
amendment,
make
a
motion
for
to
amend
the
bill.
There
was
amendments
were
sent
over
very
late.
Last
night,
I've
been
working
on
this.
We
incorporated
suggestions
by
law,
mostly
technical
in
nature,
but
really
to
strengthen
the
bill
since
we're,
since
this
bill
moves
away
from
the
the
the
emergency
act
by
the
state
and
the
city
and
I'll
further
explain
the
bill.
R
But
I
want
to
make
this
motion
to
make
the
amendments
so
motion
to
amend.
It
was
also
in
the
the
packet
that
louis
sent
around
to.
If
any
members
have
questions
about,
you
know
where
that
is.
R
So
I'll
just
reiterate
just
mostly
technical
nature,
you
know
the
reason
for
this
new
bill
was
to
was,
to
you
know,
get
away
from
the
one.
That's
expired,
create
this
new
bill
so
that
it
can
withstand
the
test
of
time.
The
chapter
is:
is
changed
to
622
b
instead
of
622
a
so
there's
no
confusion
over.
You
know
the
one.
R
That's
now
expired
and
this
one
also
there
are
some
other
technical
amendments
that
were
made
and
then
also
there
are
some
areas
where
it's
strengthened
in
terms
of
the
requirement
for
the
employee
to
isolate.
S
R
Yeah
I'd
just
like
to
you
know
thank
member
support
and
also
been
working
with
32
seiu
32bj
on
the
on
on
this
bill,
so
that
we
can
provide
you
know,
workers
in
the
city
of
pittsburgh
and
also
their
their
loved
ones,
their
family
members.
If
for
some
reason
they
would
continue
to
contract
or
you
know,
be
required
to
isolate
over
the
next
year.
Really,
you
know
for
me
the
the
spirit
of
this
bill
really
gets
to
the
point
of
throughout
the
next
year.
R
There
will
be
different.
You
know
this
will
allow
time
for
the
public
health
officials
to
continually
evaluate
the
efficacy
of
of
the
vaccines
and
also
the
vaccination
process
that
will
have
to
happen
for
children
under
the
age
of
12,
as
all
as
all
school
children
go
to
back
to
school
full-time.
R
Currently,
that's
the
that's
the
plan
for
for
schools
and
so
they're
going
to
have
their
own
requirements
for
isolation
or
if
children
test
positive,
and
so
this
really
gets
to
the
you
know
continues
on
so
that
over
the
course
of
that
year,
so
that
you
know
family
members
or
I'm
sorry,
caregivers
and
parents
don't
have
to
choose
between.
You
know
taking
care
of
their
child
and
also
you
know
whether
or
not
they
would
receive
that
paycheck
or
not.
S
Councilman
I
I
just
want
to
thank
councilman
wilson
for
working
through
this,
with
the
allegheny
conference
and
with
the
unions,
because
he
made
sure
everybody
was
at
the
table
and
I
think
he
did
a
great
job,
and
I
just
want
to
thank
him
for
that,
because
I
had
some
concerns
and
he
said,
he's
managed
to
vote.
J
J
R
All
right,
mr
chair,
looks
like
I'm
back
up.
I
wanted
to
make
sure
that
all
members
know
that
there
is
an
amendment
that
was
sent
over
to
the
previous,
the
previous
bill
that
was
agreed
upon.
So
there
was
further
discussion,
so
I'd
like
to
that
was
also
in
the
packet
with
luis
sent
over
this
morning.
So
so
I'd
like
to
bring
some
people
to
the
table
to
discuss
that
so
motion
to
amend
bill,
1678
discussion.
R
All
right
well,
I'd
like
to
have
executive
director
dave,
onorato,
the
pittsburgh
parking
authority
and
also
chief
kenzie
casey,
come
to
the
table.
So
we
can
talk
about
this
agreement
and
you
know,
what's
within
the
body
of
it,.
R
Yeah
yeah,
I
see,
I
see
david's
below
too
okay,
all
right.
If
you
could
please
you
know,
state
your
name
and,
and
sometimes
I
forget
to
do
this.
So
if
you
can
please
just
address
counsel.
T
T
Great
and
then
thank
you
for
elsa
for
the
public
comment
I
did.
I
do
want
to
clarify
that
what
she
was
speaking
about
is
actually
the
amendment
to
this.
That's
the
the
parking
meter
revenue
cap
that
originally
was
in
there
it's
originally
for
18.5
million,
and
we
the
original
amendment.
The
original
bill
was
to
lower
it
to
15,
and
we've
amended
that
so
the
current
standing
of
what
we're
looking
at
in
this
is
and
dave
feel
free
to
to
jump
in
if
you'd
like
as
well.
T
But
we
have
four
things
that
it
covers.
The
first
is
the
authority
meeting
the
debt
ratio
of
one
point,
two
five
percent,
and
that
it
just
helps
the
parking
authority's
bond
rating.
The
second
is
the
10-year
waiver
of
the
1.9
million
pilot
and
and
for
10
years,
and
that
is
approximately
19
million
dollars,
and
that
is
the
city's
sort
of
contribution
to
the
lost
revenue
for
the
parking
authority
during
covid.
T
Their
total
lost
revenue
was
about
34
million
dollars,
so
this
is
not
obviously
covering
all
of
that,
but
covering
a
lot
of
the
lost
revenue
during
copeta
that
the
parking
authority
saw
obviously
because
no
one
was
driving
downtown
known
as
parking.
No
one
was
leaving
their
houses
for
quite
some
time.
The
third
thing
is
leases
at
second
avenue,
so
a
total
of
225
leases
at
the
second
avenue
parking
authority
lot
for
70
a
month
that
covers
100
up
to
100
of
the
fleet
vehicles
and
up
to
125
city
employee
parking
spots.
T
The
fourth
thing
is-
and
this
is
where
it
gets
a
little
confusing,
so
I'll
do
my
best
to
explain
it.
Please
feel
free
to
ask
questions
or
dave
feel
free
to
jump
in,
but
the
parking
authority
in
a
normal
year
keeps
five,
normally
4.6
million
dollars
of
the
parking
meter
revenues.
This
would
change
it
to
5.6
million
for
four
years.
So
that's
another
four
million
dollars
to
sort
of
make
up
for
lost
revenue,
get
them
over
the
hump
of
sort
of
this
coveted
crisis
that
they've
seen
at
the
parking
authority.
T
So
the
way
that
it
works
is
the
parking
authority
keeps
the
first
5.6
in
is
proposed
in
this
legislation
and
and
then
enough
to
cover
the
operational
expenses
credit
card
fees.
That
kind
of
thing
the
city
would
then
receive
the
next
11.5
million
dollars
in
parking
meter
revenues
which
equals
the
18.5
million
dollar
cap
and
anything
above
that
total
18.5
million
dollars
would
be
split,
50
to
the
city
50
to
the
parking
authority.
T
So
the
total
fiscal
impact
to
the
city
in
this
legislation
would
be
about
22
million
dollars
and
that's
19
of
it
for
the
10
over
10
years
for
the
pilot
payments
and
4
million
in
the
parking
meter
revenue
over
those
four
years.
U
Yes,
hello,
council:
this
is
dave
honor,
I'm
dave,
honorado,
executive
director
of
the
pittsburgh
parking
authority
and
thanks
kenzie,
I
think
you
explained
it
went
through
the
amendments
proposed
amendments
and
covered
them,
as
as
we
want
to
see,
changed
and
had
discussions
with
councilman
wilson
and
the
city
we're
on
board,
and
I
think
you've
explained
all
the
amendments
that
are
on
the
front
of
council
today
and
we're
here.
If
there's
any
questions,
additional
questions
or
concerns
can
be
addressed.
R
So
I'll,
let
members
ask
questions
if
they
have
any
questions
right
now.
I
think
you.
I
think
that
both
of
you
have
explained
what
is
in
the
text
of
the
bill.
A
Thank
you.
This
discussion
from
other
members,
councilwoman.
D
P
Okay,
thank
you
all
for
being
here
to
casey
and
director
honorado,
I'm
struggling
to
follow
the
sections,
because
the
way
this
reads
there's
just
the
added
sections,
but
we
don't
have
the
total
agreement.
P
T
Right
so
we're
asking
council
for
the
ability
for
the
mayor
to
enter
into
the
agreement
with
the
parking
authority-
and
this
is
the
background
dave-
might
be
able
to
say
this
a
little
bit
more
clearly,
but
the
parking
authority
co-op
is
one
of
those
delightful
co-ops
that
has
been
amended
several
times
and
the
document
refers
back
to
six
different
documents,
and
so
we
are
once
again
amending
it,
which
we
were
meant
to
do
in
2019.
T
I
believe
it
was
and
sort
of
covet
took
over
and
it
didn't
get
amended
then
so
we
were
meant
to
have
it
amended
again,
and
this
is
the
amendment
to
that.
P
T
Should
all
be
publicly
available
and
dave,
I
may
I'm
exaggerating
potentially
with
six,
I'm
not
quite
sure
how
many
amendments
there
are
to
the
original
co-op.
But
I
will
say
it
is
a
very
confusing
document,
so
we
can
make
sure
that
what
is
on
the
controller's
website
it
has
the
full
comprehension
of
all
of
it.
I
mean.
P
T
T
P
I
actually
always
object
to
the
fact
that
we
authorize
the
administration
to
kind
of
unrestrictedly,
negotiate
things
ahead
of
time,
and
I
would
prefer
to
have
the
I
know
this
is
a
balance
right,
because
there's
a
lot
of
diplomacy
that
has
to
go
into
and
the
administration
has
the
authority
to
negotiate
the
contracts.
But
that
means
we're
kind
of
we
don't
want
to
give
you
like
totally
free
reins
right.
T
So
you're
you're
voting
on
the
ability
for
the
administration
to
enter
into
the
co-op
agreement.
This
is
sort
of
by
background.
These
four
points
are
the
changes
that
will
be
in
that
agree
that
co-op
agreement
so
that
you're
voting
on
the
ability
for
us
to
enter
into
the
co-op
and
and
by
way
of
background
we've
gone
through
the
four
changes
that
we
have
so
that
you
know
what
what's
in
there.
P
Right
right
so
I
mean
we
shouldn't
have
to
ask
that
the
current
version
is
on
the
controller's
website,
but
we
have
had
some
inconsistencies
with
cooperative
agreements.
You
know
the
parks
conservancy,
one
that
we
worked
on
a
few
years
ago.
There
were
30
or
something,
and
it
turns
out
there
were
50
in
total,
and
so
that's
been
updated
now,
so
that
the
public
has
access
to
all
of
those,
and
so
I'm
just
you
know,
probably
gonna
after
this
meeting
go
check
and
see
if
it
is
here.
P
P
The
public
can
see
them
and
we're
just
authorizing
you
to
enter
into
these
negotiations
to
get
this
language
in
there,
but
we'll
also
be
able
to
have
the
current
agreement
publicly
available
I'll
make
sure
it's
there
and
then
the
public
can
see
the
final
agreement,
because,
while
we're
telling
you
this
language
has
to
be
in
there,
you
also
could
add
other
things
that
we
don't
know
about.
P
Is
what
we've
negotiated
people
with
the
way
we
do
these
authorizations
so,
but
I
don't
have
any
other
questions
and
I'm
kind
of
voting
for
it
today.
I
appreciate
it.
Thank
you,
mr
chair.
V
U
V
Here-
and
I
guess
my
question
is
how's
it
looking,
I
mean
where
is
it
starting
to
pick
up
again.
U
Meters
are
coming
back
a
little
bit.
Garage
facilities
are
still
about
averaging
41
today.
What
we
need
to
see
happen
and
coming
back
slower
than
we
projected
are
the
people
coming
back
downtown
to
work,
there's
still
a
lot
of
remote
working
going
on
and
that's
what's
outside
of
our
control
and
everyone's
control.
So
originally
it
was
anticipated.
U
They
would
start
bringing
employees
back
in
april,
but
as
the
virus
continued
on
companies
extended
that
through
september,
so
we're
we're
opening
and
hearing
from
companies
that
employees
may
be
coming
back
the
september
or
last
quarter
of
this
year.
But
we,
you
know,
that's
the
big
unknown
right
now,
but
we're
still
it's
coming
back
a
little
slower
than
we
anticipated
and
projected
in
our
2021
budget.
V
Yep,
I
think
about
you
when
I
watch
the
traffic
report.
You
know
four
pit
tunnels
backed
up
they've
got
to
be
going
to
town
the
park.
So
I'm
hoping
that's
on
that
upswing
for
you
and
that's
really
my
question
david
is
really
so.
Are
we
structured
to
absorb
next
year
say
we
lose
20
million,
you
know,
or
is
our
debt
going
to
be
that
high
or
are
we
structured
now,
whereas
there's
a
lot
less
parking
would
mean
a
lot
less
payroll,
I
mean.
How
are
we
going
to
lose
34
million
in
another
18
months?
U
Yes,
I
mean
what
got
us
through
2020
was
we,
we
did
drastically
cut
our
operating
expenses
at
the
authority,
but
the
big
one
was
the
we
refinanced
our
debt.
It
was
supposed
to
be.
It
wasn't
going
to
be
paid
off
in
2026.
We
extended
it
six
years
at
3032
and
dropped
our
debt
service
payment
in
20,
from
about
16.2
million
down
to
roughly
just
under
2
million
dollars.
U
So
our
debt
is
relatively
stable
for
next
year,
but
prior
to
the
pandemic,
our
garages
were
at
90
or
higher
utilization
and
at
the
41
today
you
know
we'll
have
to
keep
monitoring
it,
but
we're
on
the
right
trend
heading
up,
but
it's
a
slower
pace
than
we
anticipated.
R
If
no
other
members
have
comment,
I
just
want
to
make
final
comment
about.
You
know.
I
appreciate
executive
director
dave
on
runner
for
managing
the
the
past
year.
It's
been,
you
know
difficult
for
all
authorities,
but
just
you
know
being
on
the
parking
authority
board
and
seeing
how
they've
been
managing
it.
I
just
want
to
commend
them
for
that
and
then
also
I
appreciate
chief
casey
being
involved
in
this
agreement.
R
As
you
can
see,
it's
quite
convoluted
with
all
these
old
agreements-
and
I
and
I
you
know
that
was
some
of
my
questions
when
we're
talking
about
this
is
how
do
I
see
the
original
full
agreement?
So
so
I'm
looking
forward
to
hopefully
cleaning
that
up
too,
if
we,
if
we
can
do
that
because
that's
that'll
be
essential
for
the
public.
R
So
I
appreciate
everyone's
time
on
this,
so
that
we
can,
you
know,
have
a
parking
authority
provides
a
lot
of
revenue
for
the
city,
and
you
know
it's
necessary
that
we
keep
them
safe
from
any
sort
of
risk
at
the
you
know,
from
their
debt
ratio,
so
they
can
meet
their
demand.
I'm
sorry
so
they
can
meet
what
the
what
they
need
to
with
you
know
with
that
that
ratio
number.

Initiative.
X
Y
Nation,
this
is
assistant
director,
schmidt,
I'll,
do
my
best.
I
just
have
a
high
level
knowledge
of
this
initiative.
Y
It
is
a
national
initiative,
with
the
bureau
of
justice
on
a
federal
level
to
provide
additional
training
to
all
of
our
officers
for
more
effective
interactions
with
services
to
individuals
with
behavioral
health
issues
and
or
intellectual
development
issues.
Assistant.
Z
Y
Z
Happily,
hello,
council:
this
is
laura
dragowski,
I'm
the
manager
of
the
office
of
community
health
and
safety,
and
I've
been
working
with
the
pittsburgh
bureau
of
police
on
this
opportunity.
So
this
is
a
technical
assistance
opportunity
to
enhance
our
current
crisis
intervention
team
training.
So
that's
something
that
the
city
has
been
doing
for
some
time,
but
we're
looking
to
refresh
that
training
so
that
officers
are
getting
more
intensive
training
around.
Z
As
director
schmidt
said,
working
with
people
living
with
intellectual
disabilities,
individuals
who
are
on
the
spectrum,
people
who
may
be
in
a
mental
or
behavioral
health
crisis,
but
there's
also
some
other
elements
that
we're
really
excited
about,
including
sort
of
the
incremental
step
of
developing
more
of
the
highly
trained
crisis,
responder
teams,
so
that
we
would
have
officers
who
are
receiving
this
enhanced
training,
around
crisis
response
working
with
other
providers
in
the
community
and
finally,
looking
toward
developing
a
co-responder
program.
Z
We're
really
excited
about
this
part,
because
it's
not
something
that
we've
seen
nationally.
This
would
be
a
program
whereby
the
the
any
of
the
co
or
alternative
response
teams
that
the
city
brings
on
would
receive
training.
We
would
hope
from
the
bureaus
of
public
within
public
safety
around
communication,
mutual
respect,
safety.
Z
There
would
be
co-training
and
scenario
development,
and
the
hope
is
that,
as
we
move
toward
having
more
co
and
alternative
response
in
the
city
that
we're
being
respectful
of
all
of
our
public
safety
professionals
and
all
of
these
other
professionals,
that
will
be,
you
know,
helping
our
residents.
So
this
is
a
really
exciting
opportunity
for
us
to
build
the
capacity
we
have
internally
and
also
support
our
partners,
and
I'm,
along
with
director
schmidt,
I'm
very
happy
to
answer
any
questions.
Additional
questions.
Z
X
X
But
will
this
training
in
some
way
be
able
to
be
offered
to
or
impact
all
officers,
because
I
understand
that
our
capacity
is
such
that
maybe
correct
me
if
I'm
wrong,
but
our
capacity
is
such
that
in
some
cases,
those
who
might
benefit
from
say
a
co-responder
model
or
a
crisis
response
team
might
not
always
get
that
that
set
of
trained
professionals.
X
They
might
get
responding
officers
that
have
gone
through.
You
know
many
different
types
of
trainings,
but
I
wanted
to
see
whether
this
would
be
offered
to
all
officers
all
responding
staff.
At
some
point.
Z
Council
person,
strasbourg,
that's
a
that's
a
great
question,
so
even
right
now
there's
currently
well,
there
was
a
sort
of
a
hiatus
during
the
pandemic,
but
officer
matt
schlick,
who
is
the
wellness
officer
in
the
pittsburgh
bureau
of
police,
he's
been
working
on
re-rolling
out
the
cit
or
crisis
intervention
team
training
that
has
lasted,
which
has
been
in
you
know
in
process
for
years.
I
know
that
chief
kudrov
and
chief
schubert
are
great
advocates
for
that
training,
so
it
would
be.
Z
You
know
we
have
every
intention-
and
this
is
certainly
the
bureau's
decision,
but
I
know
that
they
have
every
intention
of
continuing
to
make
training
available
to
all
officers
and
ensuring
that
it's
it's
current
and
very
robust,
but
then
there
would
be
additional
training
to
the
crisis
officers
and,
as
you
mentioned,
a
lot
of
this
is
predicated
on
dispatch.
Z
Z
In
fact,
I'm
on
a
phone
call
right
now
with
our
partners
at
dhs.
Talking
about
that.
So
yes,
the
the
goal
is,
is
more
not
less
so
more
training,
opportunities
and
resources
for
everyone,
and
then
for
those
that
would
be
participating
in
the
crisis
response
teams
to
continue
to
invest
in
their
ability
to
do
this,
with
the
recognition
that
we're
going
to
continue
to
move
to
the
right,
responder
alternative,
responder
model.
AA
AA
Burgess,
laura
many
years
ago
we
had
this
is
not
our
first
time
partnering
with
the
university
of
cincinnati.
In
fact,
probably
12
years
ago.
Some
of
the
council
members.
I
only
say
that
your
institutional
knowledge,
some
of
the
council
members
weren't
weren't
on
board
yet,
but
our
original
and
the
the
foundation
of
our
group
violence
program
was
modeled.
AA
After
the
cincinnati
model,
it
was
the
cincinnati
industry
to
reduce
crime,
and
then
we
produced
the
pittsburghiness
to
reduce
cram,
and
so
university
of
cincinnati
has
been
in
this
work
for
many
many
years
and
has
is
one
of
the
leading
institutions
of
this
preventative
policing
activity
work-
and
so
I
am
I
am-
I
am
have
not
been
talking
to
them
recently,
but
over
the
years
dr
kennedy,
dr
kennedy
was
also
their
consultant
for
many
years,
and
so
there
is
us
already
a
relationship
between
cincinnati
and
our
police
department,
and
so
I
am,
I
am
excited
to
see
that
we're
continuing
to
partnering
with
them,
because
I
know
of
their
great
work
at
the
university
and
the
cincinnati
police
department
and
I'm
glad
we're
bringing
some
of
those
best
practices
and
training
back
to
pittsburgh.

R
Wilson,
sorry,
I
hope
everyone
doesn't
mind.
I
don't
actually
know
if
it's
supposed
to
be
councilman,
coghill
or
me,
you
know
before
or
after
committee
that
goes
for
councilman
cross.
If
he's
not
here,
but
I
just
wanted
to
ask
the
director
a
question
about
this
bill.

Bill
1612
resolution
providing
for
the
designation
as
a
historic
structure
under
title
11
of
the
code
of
ordinances
that
certain
structure
known
as
the
east
liberty,
mellon
bank,
located
at
6112,
penn
avenue
in
east
liberty.
In
the
eighth
ward
of
the
city.
The
owner's
agent
is
opposed
to
the
nomination.
R
Motion
to
approve
discussion.
Second
councilmembers:
would
you
like
to
make
control.
AA
AA
Number
two.
All
the
community
groups
in
east
liberty
oppose
the
nomination,
both
east
liberty,
development
corporation
and
the
homewood,
the
village
collaborative
the
people
who
nominated
are
not
of
east
liberty.
They
have
absolutely
nothing
to
do
with
the
community.
They
are
outside
people,
they
nominated
a
structure
for
reasons
and
gave
it
to
historic
review.
AA
Commission
the
reasons
that
they
nominated,
the
historical
review
commission
rejected
and
then
found
a
catch-all
saying
that
it
was
consistent
with
other
buildings,
yet
the
other
buildings
that
they
compared
it
to
are
also
not
nominated
and
are
not
historic,
and
so
I
think
this
is
a
problematic
nomination.
AA
The
community
that
it's
in
does
not
want
it.
I
think
that
we
should
not
have,
and
again
this
is
a
form
of
elitism
that
I
despise
is
when
outside
people
who
neither
own
the
building
nor
live
in
the
community
decide
what's
in
the
best
interest
of
the
community.
Last
but
not
least,
the
building
is
already
partially
demolished.
AA
It
had
already
started
being
demolished
when
it
was
nominated,
was
simply
nominated
to
keep
it
from
being
demolished
and
the
new
bank
to
be
built.
There
is
no
revenue
or
vehicle
for
its
restructure
for
its
restoration,
and
so
for
all
those
reasons,
I
I
would
ask
my
colleagues-
and
I
am
you
know
against
it.
It
is
in
east
liberty
in
my
district,
so
I'm
against
it.
The
community
is
against
it.
The
community
groups
are
against
it
and
the
owner
is
against
it.
P
Thank
you.
I
will
be
supporting
this
nomination
for
a
variety
of
reasons
when
I
had
a
historic
structure
in
my
district
that
was
supported,
nominated
by
the
community
groups
supported
by
the
community
supported
by
the
residents,
councilmember
just
voted
against
it,
so
he
doesn't
seem
to
apply
his
principles
to
himself.
P
So
what
I
see
happening
for
our
historic
status
of
our
historic
properties,
I
think,
is
beyond
this
kind
of
personal
opinions.
P
P
P
We
need
to
be
more
mindful
of
keeping
what
we
value
and
I'll.
Also.
I
want
to
take
a
moment
to
talk
as
a
elapsed
sociologist.
P
As
most
of
you
know,
I
have
half
a
dissertation
written
in
historical
sociology
from
a
very
long
time
ago,
and
what
I
observe
is
that
most
of
us
think
things
are
historical
when
they
are
from
you
know
a
few
decades
from
before
our
own
life.
P
So
you
know
you
talk
to
someone
in
their
80s
and
they
only
think
things
from
maybe
1900
or
so
are
old.
You
know
tell
them
something
from
the
1940s
or
50s
is
old
and
they
just
find
that
preposterous.
So
you
know
my
favorite
old
architecture
is
a
house
like
I
live
in
now,
which
is
a
1910
19
teens
house.
I
was
like
kind
of
1920s
houses.
I
was
born
in
the
1960s.
P
Well
guess
what
today's
voters,
today's
homeowners,
today's
residents
in
a
lot
of
our
city
neighborhoods,
were
born
in
the
2000s
right
I
mean
it's,
it's
20
21.!
You
could
be
born
in
2000
and
you're
you're,
21
years
old.
You
know,
and
50
years
before
that
gets
you
to
right
around
1960..
P
So
right
I
mean
1950s
1960s
architecture,
and
so
this
mid-century
architecture,
just
like
we've
all
noticed
mid-century
furniture,
has
been
extraordinarily
popular
for
more
than
10
years.
Now
is
historical
to
our
younger
residents
and
they're,
not
even
very
young
they're,
just
younger
than
we
are
so
I
don't
think
we
should
be
ascribing
our
frames
of
reference
right.
I
think
the
code
is
written
that
way
and
it
isn't
bending
the
rules
or
finding
a
catch-all
as
the
as
some
people
say.
P
It's
written
that
way
so
that
we
really
understand
that
history
keeps
moving
forward
and
that
we
do
respect
our
history
for
future
generations
and
not
for
past
generations,
and
so
I
think
it's
fantastic
that
this
bank
has
been
nominated.
I
think
it's
really
something
we
need
to
do
more
of,
and
we've
been
saying
for
a
very
long
time.
Yes,
we
do
need
to
write
the
to
rewrite
these
rules.
P
I
have
had
my
constituents
propose
that
we
declare
every
building
every
single
building
in
the
city
de
facto
historic
if
it's
more
than
50
years
old
and
some
other
places
have
done
that
so
that'll
really
really
drive
some
people
wild.
I
think,
but
it's
worthy
of
consideration
again,
we've
been
lucky.
P
P
So
I'm
definitely
supportive
today,
and
I
hope
that
we
continue
this
conversation
and
that
we
don't
allow
for-profit
actors
like
the
for-profit
developers
who
are
tearing
down
residential
buildings
to
build
new
for
their
own
profit
and
not
again
over
the
community's
concerns
to
do
the
same
thing
here
right.
P
V
Thank
you.
You
know.
I
have
a
lot
of
respect
for
historic
preservation.
My
own
house
was
from
1890
and
I
restored
it
as
it
was
way
back
when
so,
and
I
agree,
I
don't
want
to
lose
these
structures
that
are
worth
saving.
However,
some
time
ago
I
decided
to
abstain
on
all
historic.
V
You
know
designations
and
it's
not
because
has
anything
I
went
to
callers
to
know
it's
not
because
you
know
I
don't
believe
in
historic
preservation.
What
I
don't
believe
in-
and
I
was
wanting
to
call
a
post
agenda
on
this
many
many
months
ago-
then
covet
game.
I
guess
a
blank
covered,
so
so
so
with
our
historic
preservation,
it's
the
process
and-
and
you
know
I
had
a
lot
of
questions
about
it
over
some
properties
that
we
had
designated
in
the
past.
V
V
R
Yes,
so
you
know
in
the
public
hearing
that
we
had
regarding
this
building
a
lot
of
questions.
Circling
around
the
importance
of
this
structure-
and
I
just
want
to
make
it
known
that
it
was
selected
to
be
before
us,
because
it
was
the
criteria-
was
that
it
was.
It
met
the
criteria
of
essentially
that,
because
it
was
built
during
the
whenever
penn
circle,
you
know,
with
the
failed
urban
renewal
of
penn
circle
and
also
on
the
north
side.
R
We
had
one
of
those
as
well
the
allegheny
circle
which
my
grandparents
lost
their
home.
That
was
the
reason
that
it
was
deemed
historic
that
it
was
in
that
time
frame
and
that
it
was.
You
know
that
that
was
somehow
the
reason
that
we
would
designate
it.
So
that's
why
I
question
you
know:
should
we
be
celebrating
these
structures
that
essentially
remind
us
of
the
time
that
you
know
families
were
forced
out
of
their
homes
in
the
name
of
development?
R
Now
you
know
it
should
be
noted
that
this
is
one
of
many
other
structures
that
are
in
the
portfolio
that
you
know.
Melon
commissioned
different
architects
to
for
the
modern
architecture,
and
so
you
know
there
are
others
that
weren't
part
of
a
failed
urban
renewal
that
you
know
should
be
saved
and,
I
think,
are
quite
more
unique
in
in
terms
of
architecture,
modern
architecture.
R
If
you
look
at
the
one
on
fifth
and
craig
well,
yeah,
fifth
and
craig,
the
pnc
has
a
nice
carport
I
mean
that's.
You
know.
That
is
one
that
I'm
in
favor
of,
and
I
think
we
should
be
more
proactive
in
terms
of
designating
these.
Not
whenever
you
know
someone
walks
past
and
sees
that
they're
trying
to
you
know
accommodate
what
I'm
hearing
is
what
the
community
wants.
R
So
a
local,
a
branch
that
you
know
you
know
going
off
of
what
councilman
burgess
said.
You
know
ties
into
even
residents
nearby.
You
know
new
homes
that,
were
you,
know,
federal
money
and
came
into
to
for
the
housing
choice,
neighborhoods
development.
R
You
know
a
development
that
was,
you,
know,
extensive
and
provides
long-term
affordability
for
that
neighborhood
and
for
them
to
have
a
branch
that
you
know
what
I
sat
through
for
the
the
public
hearing
would
be
what
they
want
and
to
actually
have.
This
type
of
renewal
would
be
more
in
line
with
what
I
like
to
see
on
the
north
side
as
well
as
we
continue
to
to
change.
What
is
the
wrongs
that
have
been
done
to
allegheny
circle?
R
I
think
it's
important
to
you
know
to
move
forward
and
and
respect
the
community's
wishes.
So
with
that,
I'm
gonna
vote
no
today
and
I
respect
all
comments
and-
and
I
I
met
with
the
the
designate
the
people
who
put
this
up
for
designation
and
and
I
want
to
partner
with
them
on
other
structures,
but
but
today
I'm
gonna
vote
no
on
this.
V
Yes,
no,
I
just
to
add
on
to
what
councilman
wilson
just
said:
councilman
wilson,
that's
part
of
the
problem
right
there
we
are,
you
know
a
preservation.
We
should
be
actively
pursuing
these
sites
not
waiting
until
the
wrecking
ball
is
coming
and
then
putting
them
in
front
of
us
and
now
it's
a
problem.
It's
a
problem
for
the
so-called
developer
and
it's
a
problem
for
the
preservation.
So
you
know
I'd
like
and
maybe
it's
a
lack
of
resources
I
don't
know.
V
Maybe
we
could
get
more
resources
toward
them
in
the
future
where
they
can
go
out
and
actively.
You
know
set
claim,
or
you
know,
designate
these
properties
where
when
they
come
to
us,
it's
already
done
right.
You
know,
I
feel,
like
the
problem
comes
to
us,
and
you
know
it's
not
fair
to
us
that
to
being
put
in
a
position,
so
we're
going
to
act
like
a
you
know:
preservation
let's
go
out
and
actively
pursue
the
ones
that
we
want
to
save.

gross
first
new
papers,
bill
1688.
O
O
A
S
V
P
Thank
you,
mr
chair.
Firstly,
I
have
to
amend
by
substitution.
P
We
had
additional
meetings
with
planning
over
the
last
week
and
the
community
leadership
and
the
kind
of
more
direct
path
is
to
just
add
polish
hill
and
bloomfield
into
the
kind
of
what's
called
the
inclusionary
zoning
overlay.
We
we
keep
referring
to
it
as
the
lawrenceville
overlay,
but
planning
was
clever
and
writing
it
away
in
a
way
that
other
neighborhoods
can
adopt
that
overlay.
P
So
it's
an
overlay
kind
of
template,
so,
first
of
all
motion
to
mend
by
substitution-
and
you
were
emailed
this
with
the
other
amendments
this
morning
by
louise-
at
about
9
45.
P
P
Right
may
so,
as
I
mentioned
before,
and
as
you
heard
public
comment,
the
map
attached
to
the
legislation
just
follows
the
neighborhood
boundaries
and
so
very
similarly
to
how
we
did
all
of
the
lawrenceville
footprints.
This
is
just
the
entire
polar
shell
footprint
and
the
entire
bloomfield
footprint
they've.
Both
of
the
neighborhoods
have
been
really
waiting
years.
P
They
really
wanted
to
be
adopted,
especially
bloomfield
lobbied
hard
to
be
adopted
into
the
first
overlay,
and
so
this
is
long
overdue
and,
as
I
mentioned
before,
there
have
been
lots
of
public
process
around
affordability
in
bloomfield,
so
much
kudos
to
the
balloon
field.
Development
corporation,
which
is
the
recommend
the
what's
it
called
the
community.
What
are
the
rcs
called
again.
P
Community
organization
got
it.
Thank
you
appreciate
it
for
the
neighborhood,
there
have
been
meetings.
I've
attended
with
400
people
consistently
testifying
for
the
entire
time
for
affordability
at
major
sites.
They
ensued
on
more
intensive
communications,
specifically
about
housing,
affordability.
P
I
know
that
the
bdc
has
also
done
a
housing
inventory,
we're
currently
working
on
other
parts
of
master
planning
for
bloomfield,
but
the
neighborhood
is
has
very
clearly
expressed
its
desire
to
move
forward
quickly
with
the
inclusionary
zoning,
so
we're
looking
forward
to
a
robust
public
process,
just
a
reminder
to
the
public.
There
is
always
robust
public
process.
Around
zoning
changes.
There
will
be
direct
mails
to
all
households.
There
will
be
lots
of
public
meetings
and
plant
chances
for
public
testimony,
but
we
look
forward
to
the
process
starting
and
with
your
support.
AA
Speak
before,
if
you
don't
mind,
I'm
done
mr
lavelle
chair,
yep
I'll,
be
brief,
as
you've
all
heard,
this
meeting
councilwoman
gross-
and
I
agree
on
some
things
and
disagree
on
some
things,
but
I
think
her
work
on
exclusionary
zoning
has
been
commendable
and
I
have
fully
agreed
with
her
her
process,
her
advocacy
and
her
leadership,
and
I
want
to
commend
her
for
that.
AA
I
also
want
to
just
use
this
moment
to
at
least
explain
why
I,
I
think
why
I
I
I
don't
want
to
speak
for
cosmology
speak
for
himself,
but
at
least
why
I,
I
think
he
too,
I
have
not
proposed,
although
I
have
written
it
more
than
once.
City-Wide
exclusionary
zoning
plot
process,
including
inclusionary
I'd,
say
it's
inclusion,
that's
called
exclusive
inclusionary
right
inclusionary.
Thank
you.
Inclusionary
zoning
for
the
city
is
because
we
are
fearful
I've.
AA
Actually,
I
have
been
quiet
about
lawrenceville,
because
I
was
hoping
that
you
know
it
would
just
quietly
happen.
It
is
my
understanding
and
unfortunately
I
think
we
should
prepare
ourselves
now
for
litigation,
we're
going
to
get
sued
now,
and
it's
going
to
be
a
long,
drawn-out
battle
which
hopefully
will
win,
and
hopefully
once
and
we'll
settle
this
once
and
for
all
as
to
whether
or
not
we
can,
we
can
do
inclusionary
zoning
in
our
city
and
in
our
state.
AA
The
affordable
housing
task
force
recommendation
was
to
look
into
it,
but
even
at
the
task
force
we
were,
we
were
unsure
as
to
whether
or
not
we
can
actually
do
this,
and
so
I
simply
want
to
commend
her
and
say.
The
reason
that
I
have
not
followed
suit
is
not
because
I'm
not
in
favor
of
this,
I
was
just
trying
to
delay,
which
I
knew
would
be
the
inevitable
that
the
more
we
did
this
the
more
this
would
attempt
a
lawsuit.
AA
So
I
think
in
the
next
few
months
I
don't
know
when
exactly,
but
if
it
has
not
happened
yet
it
will
happen
in
the
near
future,
there'll
be
lawsuits
and
then
hopefully
a
judge
will
will
determine
what
we
can
and
cannot
do
and
as
soon
as
that
happens,
if
it's
in
our
favor,
I
will
and
join
councilman
lavelle
and
other
members
to
be
much
more
aggressive
in
setting
up
these
inclusionary
zone
overlays.
Thank
you
very
much.
V
First,
I
just
want
to
say:
congratulations,
councilwoman
gross,
it's
not
often
you
set
out
to
you
know,
do
something
as
major
as
this
and
it
comes
to
fruition
and
seems
to
be
a
success
for
you
and
it's
like
you're
on
the
front
lines
of
affordable
housing.
So
you
know
I'm
happy
to
be
part
of
that
and
I'm
happy
to
support
it
today.
You
know
the.
J
V
To
chime
in
and
be
part
of
it
so
so
good
for
you,
it's
it's
good
to
see
it
successful
and
when
we
talk
about
affordable
housing.
This
is
something
in
black
and
white
that
I
think
we
all
can
understand,
and
I
think
it
was
40
or
so
units
that
you
know
through
throughout
lawrenceville
at
this
point,
so
so
with
the
enthusiasm
of
the
neighborhoods,
I
have
no
doubt
it
will
be
successful,
at
least
in
your
district,
but
with
that
being
said,
I
don't
believe
it's
for
every
district.
V
You
know
when
those
talks
come
if
those
talks
come
we'll
cross
that
bridge
when
we
come
to
it,
but
I
just
wanted
to
congratulate
you
on
the
success.
Thank
you.
S
Thank
you
councilman.
Yes,
I
actually
want
to
say
also
congratulations
to
councilwoman
gross.
This
is
longer
overdue
for
your
district
and
I
think
that
it's
something
I
congratulate
you.
I
know
that
you've
really
championed
this
and
done
a
great
job,
but
I
again
agree
with
councilman
coghill
that
this
is
not
for
all
districts.
S
Our
district
has
probably
more
affordable,
it
has
more
affordable
housing
than
we
have
anything,
and
what
we
actually
need
is
some
market
rate
housing,
so
it
I
just
want
to
say
it's
not
for
every
district,
it's
not
for
every
neighborhood,
but
it
may
be
parts
of
neighborhoods
or
parts
of
our
district.
That
might
might
it
might
be
great
for,
but
I
just
want
to
make
sure
that,
when
we're
having
these
conversations
that
we
keep
in
mind,
not
all
districts
are
the
same.
Not
all
neighborhoods
are
the
same.
S
A
Thank
you
any
other
members,
if
not
councilman
burgess
is
right
that
I
have
also
looked
at
both
city-wide
as
well
as
specific
inclusionary
zoning.
I
even
spoke
with
councilman
gross
about
it,
and
there
was
interest
in
doing
it
for
the
hill
and
potentially
being
able
to
also
just
sort
of
con
because
it
was
contiguous
to
polish
show
sort
of
easily
coming
over.
But
what
I
do
want
to
just-
and
I
want
to
just
double
check,
councilman
gross.
A
P
So
only
if
the
development
is
20
units
or
more
so
then
the
requirement
kicks
in
so
let's
say
it
was
20
units,
so
what
10
of
the
units
would
only
be
two
units
right?
So
it's
I
I've
said
this
before.
In
you
know
the
media
or
in
interviews
this
one
was
really
crafted
for
the
needs
that
lawrenceville
was
having
at
the
time,
which
is
that
they
had
lost
so
many
affordable
units
that
were
not
in
multi-units.
They
weren't
in
big
buildings
that
had
been
imploded.
P
They
weren't
big
that
were
not
multi-units
at
all.
They
had
lost
so
many
affordable
apartments
in
those
single-family
homes
and
those
were
not
going
to
be
gotten
back
because
there
was
a
family
living
in
them
right.
P
So
what
had
been
four
three
or
four
affordable
apartments
in
one
of
those
you
know:
victorian
houses
in
lawrenceville
was
now
back
into
single
family
and
and
hundreds
and
hundreds
of
apartments
were
lost
that
way,
almost
invisibly,
but
the
opportunity
there
was
in
the
big
footprint
so
moving
forward
how
to
gain
affordable
units
back
using
the
kind
of
market
pressure.
That
was
there
wanting
to
buy
big
parcels
and
build
big
multi-units.
P
It's
not
the
tool
for
all
affordability,
it's
not
the
tool
for
every
kind
of
of
threat
that
is
driving
up
prices,
but
it
is
a
great
tool
here,
and
so
what
we
see
in
these
hot
market
neighborhoods
is
that,
where
there's
already
a
big
parcel,
where
someone
could
zone
for
multiple
units,
there's
opportunity
there,
but
also
you
it's
amazing,
but
true
that
that
developers
are
so
intense
on
building
that
they're
also
buying
multiple
parcels
and
trying
to
combine
them
almost
like
we
used
to
fund
our
ura
to
do
for
us
right,
although
the
market
is
doing
that
and
these
overheated
neighborhoods,
so
there
really
is
a
threat
that
this
is
the
right
tool
to
meet.
P
Otherwise,
what
you
see
happening
is
that
we
risk
creating
these
new,
allowing
these
neighborhoods
allowing
the
market
to
make
these
neighborhoods
only
for
high-income
people
right
that
almost
every
home
and
almost
every
apartment,
the
the
prices
are
driven
up,
and
so
there
is
that
when
we
say
lack
of
affordability,
we
really
mean
that
they're
they're,
not
that
we're
losing
the
mix
of
incomes
of
the
households
in
the
neighborhoods.
P
P
A
A
I
could
be
very
brief
now.
I
was
simply
going
to
say
that
this
is
indeed
one
very
useful
tool,
but
to
many
of
the
speakers
who
got
on
this
won't
actually
address
their
concern
about
increasing
rent,
increasing
housing
value.
A
Zoning
doesn't
address
that
and
unfortunately,
last
time
I
looked
at
it,
we
legally
can't
do
things
like
rent
control
here,
so
we
gotta
we'll
have
to
get
creative
to
find
other
tools,
but
I
look
forward
to
supporting
you
on
this
and
then
working
with
you
to
address
those
other
concerns
that
people
are
really
calling
in
about
with
that.
Your
motion
is
to
send
to
the
planning
commission
for
review
and
recommendations.
AA
A
All
those
in
favor
say
aye
any
opposed.
We
we
look
forward
to
hearing
their
report
and
recommendation.
Thank
you
very
much
that
does,
I
believe,
exhaust
our
agenda.
Yes,
it
does.
We
do
have
a
number
of
meeting
announcements
this
afternoon
at
1
pm
council
will
hold
an
executive
session
with
the
city's
law
department
relative
to
ongoing
legal
matters
with
saint
vienne
church
next
week,
council
will
meet
tuesday
july
27th
at
10
a.m.
A
30
pm
council
will
hold
another
cable
cast
postage
in
the
discussion
with
the
board
of
education
and
the
superintendent
on
current
and
future
plans
and
programs
to
increase
academic
achievement.
Both
post-agenda
agendas
are
relative
to
bill
1135,
which
is
a
resolution
declaring
a
state
of
educational
emergency
in
the
city
of
pittsburgh.
A
A
Any
other
comments
from
members.
Mr
chair
councilwoman,
strasburger.
X
Sorry
to
develop
the
labor
and
already
long
meeting,
but
we
had
some
good
conversations
today.
I
just
wanted
to
bring
up
a
separate
topic
and
express
my
disappointment
in
the
court's
ruling
yesterday
on
the
rental
registration
legislation
that
council
passed
in
2015.,
it's
been
tied
up
in
court
since
then
actually
preceded
my
my
election
to
city
council.
X
This
is
such
an
important
tool
that
the
city
has
not
yet
been
able
to
implement
because
it's
been
tied
up
in
court
proceedings,
and
this
is
the
latest
blow
related
to
the
fee
structure
associated
with
rental
registration,
but
just
to
sort
of
remind
residents
that
this
would
give
our
building
inspectors
and
the
city
the
tools
to
actually
enter
apartments,
to
do
spot
check
inspections,
to
check
for
things
like
overall
safety
and
over
occupancy,
really
targeting
not
the
property
owners
that
are
doing
a
great
job.
X
But
those
who
are
absentee
don't
live
in
the
city,
don't
live
in
the
country
and
requiring
that
they
have
a
local
agent
to
be
able
to
appear
in
court,
and
really
you
know
ensuring
that
the
quality
of
the
our
living
spaces
for
for
all
residents
is
is
increased.
That
we're
raising
the
basement
on
that.
So
I
hope
that
we're
able
to
work
through
this
issue
get
to
a
point
where
you
know
the
court
can
agree
that
that
the
fees
are
fair
and
that
we
can
start
enforcing
it.
I'm
beyond
ready
for
this.
S
That
I'd
like
to
see
us
use
a
little
bit
more
frequently,
and
although
I
think
that
our
courts
would
be
great
if
they
would
help
us
along.
I
think
that
we
and
I
think,
once
we
get
people
there
would
be
great
to
have
magistrates
that
work
with
us.
S
I
think
that
there's
a
lot
to
be
said
for
what
we
need
to
do
internally
as
well,
but
with
that
said,
I
also
want
to
say
separately
that
we
I've
talked
to
members
yesterday.
I
promised
that
we
would
continue
having
the
dialogue
about
the
arp
funding
and
that
we
are
starting
to
schedule,
meetings
and
they're.
Just
the
beginning,
we'll
have
even
additional
meetings.
S
Councilman
gross
pointed
out
that
it's
a
little
bit
soon,
because
one
meeting,
I
think
we
have
tentatively
scheduled
as
the
26th,
I
think,
and
that's
only
six
days
away,
but
that's
not
even
confirmed
yet,
but
we'll
continue
to
schedule
and
work
with
councilwoman
and
others.
So
if
you
have
suggestions
on
the
meetings,
please
contact
councilman,
burgess,
lavelle
and
myself
and
we'll
continue
to
to
work
on
that
schedule.
Thank
you.
Everyone.
A
Thank
you
now
we
need
a
motion
to
approve
to
excuse
the
absent
member,
approve
the
minutes
and
adjourn
the
meeting.
