I
just
want
to
begin
before
I
read
the
proclamation
just
to
say
a
little
bit
about
this
program.
Mark
brentley.
I've
met
mark
bentley
years
ago
when
he
first
started
this
program
and
one
of
my
first
jobs
with
pittsburgh.
Public
schools
was
to
assist
him
and
his
passion
and
drive
were
unparalleled.
I
mean
he
just
felt
so
committed
to
this
cause
and
I
didn't
always
understand
it.
A
I
tried
to
get
him
to
change
it
to
special
person
day
special
people
day,
especially
he
was
not
changing
it
and
I
now
I
understand,
and
if
you
see
what
happened
this
weekend,
how
many
kids
injured
in
violent
crime
and
some
of
the
things
that
happened
have
been
happening
across
our
city?
If
you
don't
think
that,
there's
a
need
for
male
role,
models
and
fathers
in
this
city,
whether
it's
your
children
or
somebody
else's
children,
it's
time
for
everyone
to
step
up
together,
whether
you're
male
female,
whether
you
have
children,
don't
have
children
we.
A
This
is
all
of
our
problem
and
it's
time
for
all
of
us
to
step
up.
So
thank
you
for
setting
the
pace
at
the
beginning
and
now
we're
here
to
join
you
and
hope
that
we
can
make
some
changes
in
our
children's
lives.
Thank
you
for
supporting
us.
Thank
you.
So
here
with
the
proclamation,
whereas
may
20th,
2022
has
been
designated
as
the
24th
annual
take
a
father
to
school
day
in
the
pittsburgh
public
school
district
and
whereas
created
by
former
school
board
member
mark
brentley
senior.
A
The
mission
of
the
of
this
annual
event
is
to
increase
active
participation
of
fathers,
father
figures
and
positive
male
role.
Models
within
the
schools
in
hopes
that
they
would
become
more
involved
in
the
child's
life
child's
education,
all
children's
education
and
whereas
for
the
purpose
of
highlighting
the
the
inclusive
nature.
A
It
was
parent
community
engagement
and
one
of
the
things
we
tracked
was
the
decrease
in
corrections
from
this
from
the
from
the
school
district,
less
kids
were
getting
in
trouble,
whereas
students
have
also
shown
that
when
a
father
is
actively
involved
with
their
child,
it
can
help
increase
students,
emotional
intelligence
and
problem-solving
capabilities,
which
enables
healthier
behaviors
and
now,
therefore,
be
it
resolved
that
the
council
of
the
city
of
pittsburgh
does
hereby
recognize
the
take
your
father
to
school
day
event
and
the

A
Okay-

we
have
director

also
would
like
to

A
Before

over
to
mark
brentley,
are
there
any
members
of
city
council
that
like
to
make
a
comment,
I
can't
see.
A
A
I
So
much
thank
you.
Thank
you,
madam
president
and
members
of
council.
We
just
have
a
couple
of
quick
presentations
if
you'll
just
bear
with
us,
but
before
we
do
this,
let
me
just
first
say
to
those
who
are
on
social
media
who
will
be
seeing
this
or
saying
this
now.
I
That
would
do
everything
for
us
and
so
what
I'm
asking
for
you
guys
to
do
before
we
go
through
this
in
your
mail,
deep
voice,
we're
going
to
say
this,
thank
you,
mercedes
house,
and
then
we're
going
to
clap
once
already
and
your
mail
deep
voice
on
the
count
of
three
one.
Two
three
thank
you
mercedes,
okay.
I
Secondly,
and
you're,
saying
male
deep
voice,
we're
going
to
say,
get
well
soon,
mayor
gainey,
all
right,
because
he's
watching
you
know
he's
watching
he's
he's
pittsburgh
through.
Okay,
on
the
count
of
three
one,
two
three
get
well
soon,
mayor
gatey,
that's
excellent!
Thank
you.
Thank
you.
Now
let
me
bring
up
our
superintendent,
dr
walters,
before
he
speaks.
Let
me
say
also
that
when
we
first
started,
we've
had
administrators
who
stuck
with
stuck
with
us
from
day
one-
and
this
is
a
man-
that's
been
responsible
for
a
little
bit
of
everything.
I
He
is
also
the
person
when
we
went
to
him
and
said:
hey
we're
going
to
go
to
city
council,
but
we
want
to
say
it
in
words
our
pledge
to
children
and
our
pledge
to
each
other
and
our
pledge
to
families.
Can
you
put
something
together
that
we
can
say
that
was
about
15
years
ago,
and
that's
the
litany
we're
reading
today,
so
we're
thankful
and
we're
honored
to
have
him
here
and
to
introduce
him
as
the
superintendent
of
pittsburgh
public
schools,
dr
wayne
walters.
M
M
M
M
I
I
This
city
was
recognized
as
the
first
place
winner
in
the
national
school
board
association
in
terms
of
innovative
ways
of
getting
men
active
and
involved.
So
that
just
simply
means
we
are
the
lead
city.
Okay,
everybody
else
you
see
doing
fathers
are
following
us,
okay
and
we're
happy
about
that.
We
do
have
one
of
our
partners
here
and
I'm
going
to
ask
my
partners,
my
friends
at
the
carnegie
library.
I
If
you
would
come
over
and
share
a
few
words
with
us,
please,
while
he's
coming
over
one
of
the
themes,
we're
also
working
on
this
year,
is
because
this
pandemic
didn't
just
hurt
the
pittsburgh
public
schools.
Don't
let
nobody
tell
you
that
it
hurts
all
students
across
this
country,
but
what
we're
doing
to
support
our
students.
It's
called
the
pittsburgh
public
schools,
readers
that
simply
means,
starting
next
month,
we're
taking
we're
asking
you
to
take
four
months.
The
next
four
months
take
one
book
and
read
to
two
kids:
that's
not
hard
to
do.
I
N
Morning,
everyone,
my
name
is
dan
and
I
am
a
librarian
I'm
here
on
behalf
of
carnegie
library
of
pittsburgh,
but,
more
importantly,
more
relevantly
to
this,
I'm
also
proud
pps,
dad,
yes,
and
so
I
wanted
to
take
this
opportunity.
I
know
I'm
supposed
to
talk
about
the
library
and
the
partnership,
but
I
actually
want
to
give
you
a
little
tip
dad
to
dad
an
important
part
of
being.
N
We
all
know
being
in
the
lives
of
young
people
is
spending
time
with
them
right,
and
I
think
we've
all
found
that,
especially
recently
anytime,
you
leave
the
house
for
a
fun
afternoon.
It
seems
like
your
wallet
is
empty
when
you
get
home
right.
N
So
I
have
you
have
a
little
ace
up
your
sleeve.
If
you
have
a
library
card
in
your
pocket,
I
want
to
encourage
you
all.
I
have
two
requests.
One
check
your
pocket
make
sure
you
have
a
library
card
from
the
carnegie
library,
pittsburgh.
N
Two
next
time
you
see
any
young
person
who
you
care
about,
ask
them
if
they
have
a
library
card.
So
we
all
know
about
the
books
and
you're
gonna
need
four
books.
I
think
we've
all
given
amazon
enough
of
our
money
in
the
last
couple
years,
so
check
them
out
from
the
library
please
and
talk
to
the
librarians
there
to
get
recommendations
about
books
that
the
young
people
in
your
life
and
you
can
connect
over
that
reflect
your
own
experiences
and
your
shared
values.
N
But
what's
more
than
that,
is
it's
actually
a
fun
afternoon
out
to
come.
So
we
have
17
neighborhood
libraries,
the
main
library
in
oakland,
plus
the
library
for
accessible
media
for
pennsylvania's
on
lan
on
bomb
boulevard.
If
you
ask,
we
can
actually
give
you
a
little
booklet
with
it'll.
Give
you
a
passport,
so
you
can
go
check
out
all
the
libraries
and
check
them
off.
But
on
top
of
that
we
have
homework,
help
ebook.
So
you
can
check
out
comics
and
read
them
on
your
table.
N
You
can
check
out
video
games
and
we
have
a
new
service
called
the
rad
pass,
where
you
can
log
in
with
your
library
card,
get
free
or
very
reduced
cost
tickets
to
theater
museums
and
things
like
that.
All
of
that
in
service
of
getting
you
out
in
the
community
having
a
nice
day
out
and
spending
time
with
the
young
people
who
you
really
care
about.
N
So
finally
acknowledging
that,
like
where
everywhere
else,
barriers
exist
and
we're
committed
to
reducing
barriers
and
there's
a
lot
of
work
to
be
done.
But
we've
made
a
big
step
in
that
in
the
last
couple
of
months,
you
may
have
heard
we've
eliminated
overdue
fines.
So
if
you
check
out
a
book
if
you've
been
worried
about
fines
or
anything
like
that,
it's
nothing
to
worry
about.
Fines
have
been
cleared
off
and
those
young
people
can
check
out
books
as
long
as
the
books
eventually
come
back.
There's
no
problem!
So
with
that.
N
Thank
you
very
much
for
everything
you
do
dads
and
special
adults,
and
thank
you
for
including
me
thank.
I
You
dan
for
being
a
partner,
thank
you
and
what
we
want
to
do.
We
have
a
few
more
quick,
quick
announcements
and,
and
while
we're
getting
ready
for
that,
the
three
folks
are
going
to
be
saying
a
few
things
from
our
committee
mark
senior
mark
junior.
If
you
can
make
your
way
over
here,
brother
melvin,
l
and
then
brother
dwayne
barker
we're
going
to
if
you
can
start
moving
forward,
email's
going
to
take
us
through
the
or
you
got
a
microphone
you're
going
to
work
from
there.
I
Okay
he's
going
to
take
us
through
the
litany
and
some
other
knowledge
of
acknowledgements
he
needs
to
make
and
the
others
have
something
to
say
and
after
that
we're
going
to
do
the
pittsburgh
chair
and
then
we're
we're
going
to
be
finished.
We're
going
to
be
downstairs
to
fellowship
with
men
and
talk
about
the
importance
of
committing
ourselves
to
our
children
in
this
city
and,
of
course,
share
our
box
lunch
brother,
mel.
O
How
you
feel
fire
it
up
one
more
time
how
you
feel
all
right,
hey,
hey,
I'm
gonna,
say
anybody
have
their
card
out
here.
Let
them
know
that
we
here
in
this,
this
building
city
council,
have
our
library
cards.
Mine
is
right
here.
Anybody
else
got
one
all
right.
This
is
your
wallet
just
want
to
make
sure
just
checking.
F
O
Right
all
right
brother,
we're
in
good
shape.
We
let
you
know
we
carried
them
all
right.
Also,
you
talk
about
the
fatherhood
movement
in
western
pennsylvania,
which
take
your
father's
school
day
is
certainly
a
part
of
it.
A
large
part
of
it,
but
before
the
take
your
father
school
day
started.
This
started
back
in
the
1980s
and
next
week
we're
gonna
be
acknowledging
those
individuals
who
were
founders
of
this
movement
in
western
pennsylvania.
O
O
So
we're
going
to
go
into
our
lit
knees,
all
right
mark.
Yes,
sir,
you
run
it,
you
take
it
now.
We
have
several
folks
are
going
to
help
this
out
and
we're
going
to
have
them
line
up
and
come
up
and
read
certain
portions
of
this.
I
want
to
let
you
know
where
it
says:
members
is
where
all
of
us,
someone
will
say,
members
don't
read
it
then
you'll
be
after
them
all
right.
O
We'll
see
and
then
then
we
get
down
to
on
the
second
page,
where
it
says:
unison,
I'll,
come
back
up
and
we'll
all
say
that
part
together
in
unison
and
also
another
recognition
that
I
have
on
my
paper.
I
have
to
say
we
have
before
us
today.
The
young
man
who
I'm
very
proud
of
and
a
lot
may
be
proud
of
this
young
man.
Who
now
is
our
state
representative
for
for
the
24th
legislative
district.
At
this
time,
state
rep,
martel
covington's
with
us
together.
O
I
don't
forgot
martial,
I
didn't
forget
brother
anyhow,
we're
gonna
have
josiah
gilliam
come
up
and
I'm
gonna
call
your
name.
You're
gonna
line
up
right
next
to
josiah
going
this
way
and
then,
when
josiah
next
person
will
come
up,
we
have
rick
rick
coming
up.
He
has
children
in
kappa
and
pla,
and
also
john
bowie.
O
We
have
julius
boat
right,
gonna
come
down
and
after
julius
we
have
adam
and
after
adam
as
daniel,
my
personal
favorite
brother,

luke.
It's
gonna

only
because
I

brother
sloan

he's
in
sixth
grade
at
arsenal.
I
ain't

but
we're
gonna
have
josiah
come
up
and
get
started.
Thank
you
very
much.

Thank
you,

to
the
involvement
of

figures
in
the
education
of

to
the
collaborative
support

We
rejoice
that

students,
educators
and
supporters-
are
assembled
under
the
banner
of
the
pittsburgh
public
schools
take
a
father
to
school
day.
We
ask
for
guidance
as
we
grow
in
our
development
concerning
the
importance
and
impact
of
fathers
and

figures
and
our
need
to
embrace
relationships

I
want
a
little
bit
more
interaction,
so
I
am
here
recognizing
he
has
occasional
partners
that
we
have.
We
know
for
a
fact
that
pittsburgh,
public

was
a
flagship
and
has
supported
take
a
far
little
school
day
for
24
years,
but
we
want
to
recognize
that
we
have
men
that
are
here
from
private
schools,
provocative
schools
and
charter
schools
that
are
standing
up
for
their
children
as
well,
because
at
the
end
of
the
day
we
all
share
the
responsibility
of
our
students.

you.

you,

Finally,
before
we
do
our
father
pittsburgh
father's
cheer,
we
do
want
to
give
a
moment
to.
I
think
it's

you
have

got

I
don't
know
why
everybody's
giggling
so
much,
but
you
know
I
did
this
at
the
monroe
grill
mall
in
the
pittsburgh
golden
gloves
last
week
and
when
a
kid
comes
up
and
hugs
my
knee
and
said
I
love
you,
mr
emoji,
I
get
tears
and
I'm
gonna
watch
that
I've
been
showing
people
handing
out
the
pens.
H
I
want
to
dedicate
myself
to
the
mayor's
office
whatever
they
want
me
to
do,
get
on
school
buses
go
to
the
schools
whatever
they
want
me
to
do,
because
my
watch
is
what
I
want
to
assemble
in
this
pittsburgh
city.
The
violence
got
to
stop
and
everybody
saw
my
watch.
It's
a
smiley
watch
it's
time
to
smile
in
the
city
of
pittsburgh.
Thank
you
for
the
opportunity.
H
I
I
All
righty,
thank
you,
folks,
we're
thankful
to
city
council
for
this
event,
we're
going
to
end
this
way,
guys
in
the
fist
of
determination.
With
your
left
hand,
when
I
say
pittsburgh,
you
save
fathers
and
you
put
it
in
the
air
all
right
and
you
get
louder
each

Mayor,
councilman,
coghill
and
state
representative
benham
have
all
pledged
to
help
bonaire
get
rid
of
our
detrimental
school
property
and
replace
it
with
the
green
space.
The
michael
mullen
memorial
green
space
will
be
beneficial
to
all
ages
and
stages
of
people.
A
beautiful
calming
place
to
enjoy
fruit,
trees,
flowers
and
birds.
W
Will
the
rest
of
city
council
promote
the
peace,
safety
and
happiness
of
the
bonaire
neighborhood?
We,
the
property
owners,
say
no
to
anything
other
than
a
green
space
to
replace
the
once
valuable
asset
of
the
school
that
was
closed
against
our
will.
Reapportionment
is
thoroughly
rejected
by
we,
the
people
of
bonaire.
There
is
no
benefit
to
us.
The
answer
is
no:
the
micro
real
green
space,
the
partial
reparation
for
the
injuries
we
have
endured.
N
X
Yeah
hi,
my
name
is
linda
vaca,
except
for
about
15
years
I
have
resided
in
bloomfield
all
of
my
life
returning
here
about
seven
years
ago.
My
main
concern
is
a
public
safety
issue,
I'm
speaking
on
behalf
of
dozens
of
parishioners
of
saint
maria
gretti
parish
and
bloomfield
regarding
the
bishop's
recent
decision
to
leave
saint
joseph
church
open
and
to
conduct
major
renovations,
while
the
building
remains
in
use.
X
X
Also,
last
week,
the
fire
marshal
advised
that
the
building
was
unlawfully
padlocked,
preventing
people
from
being
able
to
exit
its
two
main
doors
from
inside
unlawful
padlocks
were
also
found
on
at
least
two
doors
at
immaculate
conception
church.
These
are
the
same
people
saying
trust
us
it's
safe.
X
We
are
requesting
immediate
assistance
from
district
7,
councilwoman
and
city
council
at
large
to
make
the
issue
of
the
saint
joseph
church
building
a
priority
to
ensure
the
safety
of
the
bloomfield
community
before
any
construction
begins.
The
diocese
must
be
required
to
test
for
asbestos
and
other
contaminants,
and
any
construction
project
must
be
closely
monitored
with
the
safety
of
the
community
a
priority
we
are
requesting
that
all
furnace
occupancy,
building
and
health
department
inspections
be
reviewed
or
conducted
immediately
if
outdated,
I've
attached
an
appendix
outlining
very
specific
public
health
and
safety
concerns.
X
My
second
concern
is
affordable
housing
for
seniors
in
bloomfield,
most
bloomfield
seniors
struggle
to
navigate
and
afford
the
third,
three
and
four-story
row
houses
bloomfield
has
been
cheated
out
of
affordable
senior
housing
several
times
over
the
last
30
years.
When
is
it
bloomfield's
turn
for
affordable
senior
housing?
I
generally
support
bringing
tangible
benefits
to
bloomfield's
sizable
senior
community
and
in
particular,
affordable
housing
for
bloomfield
seniors,
most
of
whom
are
lifelong
pittsburgh
residents.
X
A
Y
Yes,
christina
howell
from
bloomfield.
Y
I'm
the
executive
director
of
bloomfield
development
corporation,
a
registered
community
organization
in
the
neighborhood
of
bloomfield,
and
I'm
also
a
resident
of
the
neighborhood
bdc's
mission,
is
to
build
a
thriving,
diverse
community
through
equitable
engagement,
and
our
vision
is
a
bloomfield
where
everyone
can
build
a
home,
a
business
and
a
future.
Y
While
the
east
end
is
in
high
development
demand
now
and
for
the
last
10
years.
It
wasn't
always
that
way
in
2018
bdc
in
response
to
increasing
development
in
bloomfield
and
demand
for
our
land
and
houses,
convened
the
gateway
community
planning
process
where
residents
and
stakeholders
overwhelmingly
identified
affordable
housing
as
a
priority
for
the
suresafe
site,
then
in
2019
bdc
undertook
a
housing
survey
to
understand
the
of
the
moment
situations
of
residents
regarding
housing,
which
resulted
in
our
seven
year,
affordable
housing
strategy
and
work
plan.
Y
Y
Inclusionary
zoning
is
one
of
the
tools
in
our
affordability
toolbox,
while
10
percent
of
units
in
one
development
is
a
tiny
drop
in
the
bucket
of
need,
and
we
would
support
a
higher
percentage
as
well
as
a
lower
ami
threshold
for
renters.
The
current
inclusionary
zoning
legislation
proposed
for
bloomfield
and
polish
hill
is
an
excellent
start.
Y
Additionally,
much
of
the
bomb
center
corridor
is
also
included
in
bloomfield's
boundaries
and
we've
all
seen
the
development
booming
in
that
area,
so
I
am
here
to
support
inclusionary
zoning
being
expanded
from
lawrenceville
into
bloomfield
and
polish
hill.
I
also
want
to
take
the
moment
to
request
for
a
staff
person
in
the
city
planning
to
monitor
and
track
inclusionary
zoning.
It
is
badly
needed
that
way.
We
can
then
show
and
have
the
data
that
it
is
working
and
tweak
as
necessary
that
legislation.
Z
Z
There
is
nothing
more
important
to
me
than
these
two
connected
issues
willing
to
almost
literally
lay
down
my
life
in
relationship
to
the
importance
of
these
issues.
April
2022
is
european
intelligence
month.
I
and
gis
have
a
link
with
helsinki,
finland.
Finland
is
sixth
in
the
world
in
forbes
estimate
of
national
iq
15
for
the
united
states,
and
finland
is
first
in
europe
in
housing.
A
concern
of
this
council
is
the
inclusionary
zoning.
I
see
an
affordable
housing
nexus
13
and
15
april
2022.
Z
I
emailed
ms
gross
district
seven
and
I
z,
advocate
some
questions.
Please
define
what
you
mean
by
inclusionary,
especially
with
regard
to
housing.
Does
inclusionary
housing
produce
any
exclusionary
outcomes?
What
mathematical
representation
can
you
offer
between
unequal
housing
instances
in
lawrenceville
and
compensatory
equality,
monetary
course
to
vector
a
specific
positive
annual
equity
outcome?
Z
Want
the
gis
lawrenceville
housing
database?
How
does
the
approach
of
pittsburgh
council
on
izah
differ
from
philadelphia,
pennsylvania
and
austin,
texas,
very
different
approaches,
no
reply
from
ms
bros
or
any
other
counselor
who
received
copies
of
these
emails.
Z
Overall,
I
oppose
the
I
z,
a
h:
u
s
version,
because
I
view
it
as
an
anti-equality
form
of
discrimination.
I
oppose
the
public
sector
pittsburgh
and
any
other
local
council
across
the
united
states
imposing
on
the
private
sector
what
to
do
with
his
property
or
housing.
I
oppose
subordination
in
housing
of
the
ideal
of
equality
in
competitive
uh-ness
that
may
produce
inequalities
based
on
individual
achievement
over
an
ideology
of
equity
that
is
based
on
a
scriptive
intersectionless
bias
for
anyone
which
here
seems
to
be
the
materially
poor
and
non-white
pittsburghers.
Z
AA
Hi
there
my
name
is
sam
spearing
and
I
work
as
the
housing
and
mobility
coordinator
for
bloomfield
development
corporation
and
I'm
also
a
resident
of
bloomfield
as
a
renter
on
pearl
street.
I
want
to
quickly
apologize
because
there's
construction
outside,
so
you
might
be
able
to
hear
that,
and
I
also
wanted
to
quickly
thank
pittsburgh
action
against
rape
and
all
of
the
fathers
and
father
figures
for
all
of
their
work
and
service
of
art
communities
as
recognized
earlier.
AA
But
I'm
here
today
to
speak
in
support
of
the
expansion
of
inclusionary
zoning
to
bloomfield
and
polish
hill.
Thanks
to
councilwoman
gross
and
great
partners
like
lawrenceville,
united
and
lawrenceville
corporation
we've
seen
the
success
of
inclusionary
zoning
in
lawrenceville,
and
we
want
to
replicate
this
tool
for
bloomfield
as
well.
We
know
that,
according
to
data
collected
by
the
planning
department,
roughly
41
percent
of
renters
in
bloomfield
are
cost
burdened,
which
is
more
than
double.
AA
Many
of
the
amenities
that
are
driving
new
development,
higher
housing
costs
and
increased
desirability
in
bloomfield's
housing
market
demonstrate
the
advantage
of
creating
new,
affordable
units.
Bloomfield
is
walkable,
bikeable
and
well
served
by
public
transportation.
Grocery
stores,
farmers
markets
and
healthcare
facilities
are
all
easily
accessible
from
bloomfield.
Locating
new
quality,
affordable
units
in
neighborhoods,
like
bloomfield,
is
essential
to
allow
low-income
renters
access
to
the
same
opportunities
as
everyone
else.
AA
I
also
want
to
acknowledge
two
of
the
biggest
questions
we
heard
during
multiple
public
meetings
about
inclusionary
zoning.
The
first
question
was
why
only
10
demonstrating
a
consistent
desire
for
more
ambitious,
affordable
housing
goals
in
the
city
and
the
second
question
we
heard
several
times
was:
why
not
do
this
in
other
neighborhoods
or
in
my
neighborhood,
and
to
that
end,
we'd
like
to
encourage
further
expansion
of
inclusionary
zoning
as
neighbors
neighborhoods
request
it,
our
neighborhood
and
neighbors
need
tools
that
create
new,
affordable
housing
units
in
bloomfield.
AA
AB
State,
your
name
excellent
hello.
My
name
is
bruce
chan
and
I
am
the
chair
of
the
bloomfield
development,
corporation's
property
and
planning
committee,
and
I'm
here
today
to
speak
in
favor
of
the
inclusionary
zoning
legislation
for
bloomfield
and
polish
hill,
and
while
we
have
mainly
been
speaking
about
how
inclusionary
zoning
will
help
future
developments,
I
do
want
to
talk
today
about
those
who
have
already
been
driven
out
of
bloomfield
because
of
this
unaffordability.
AB
I
personally
have
had
neighbors
friends
and
colleagues
who
originally
moved
to
bloomfield
because
of
the
walkability,
the
tight-knit
community
and
affordability.
However,
they
have
been
forced
to
move
in
the
past
years,
mainly
relocating
outside
of
the
city
in
boroughs,
like
aetna
shaler,
millville
tools
like
inclusionary
zoning
is
just
one
way.
We
can
hope
to
keep
those
current
pittsburgh
residents
and
neighbors,
keeping
that
talent,
diversity
and
friendship
in
our
city
and
neighborhood.
AB
So
I
urge
city
councils
today
to
approve
this
new
inclusionary
zoning
legislation
to
not
only
ensure
that
pittsburgh
has
affordable
units
for
not
only
to
provide
for
new
future
neighbors,
but
also
to
lure
back
those
we
have
already
lost.
Additionally,
I
hope
that
we
can
expand
this
effective
tool.
Citywide,
bloomfield
and
polish
hill
are
privileged
to
have
engaged
community
advocates
and
resources,
but
many
neighborhoods,
literally
those
which
could
benefit
the
most
from
inclusionary
zoning
aren't
as
well
resourced.
AB
Not
many
working-class
pittsburghers
can
take
time
off
in
the
middle
of
the
day
to
attend
the
numerous
meetings
at
planning,
commission
and
city
council
to
fight
like
lawrenceville,
bloomfield
and
polish
hill
have
so.
I
encourage
city
council
to
proactively
give
neighborhoods
the
tools,
like
inclusion,
new
zealand
zoning
to
ensure
affordable
and
responsible
developments
for
all
pittsburghers.
A
C
Yeah
well,
I
was
trying
to
unmute
it,
but
I
missed
the
with
it
what
it
was,
I
think
star
six,
but
anyway
I
wanted
to
talk
a
little
bit
about
the
just
to
ask
some
questions
about
these.
I
was
looking
at
the
footage
of
the
mass
shooting.
C
Okay,
yes,
carmen
brown,
east
liberty.
I
wanted
to
just
talk
a
little
bit
about
this.
I
wanted
to
ask
some
questions
and
just
put
it
on
the
record
and
after
I
reviewed
the
footage
of
the
mass
shooting.
These
are
the
questions
that
I
have.
Okay,
the
police
officer
was
parked
for
90
minutes
before
the
shooting.
Why
didn't
the
officers
do
an
observation
in
the
area?
Why
was
there
only
one
exit?
C
C
Why
didn't
the
officers
ask
for
the
person
who
answered
the
door
to
show
id
if
the
police
was
diligent
in
their
observation,
it
would
have
been
a
different
outcome
and
lives
could
have
been
saved.
Theresa
kell,
I'm
asking
you
to
request
the
body
cam
to
show
the
public,
so
we
can
see
exactly
what
happened.
We
can
see
exactly
who
was
at
the
door
when
they
supposedly
you
know,
went
to
and
they
talked
to
somebody
there.
They
they
said
it
was
the.
It
was
supposed
to
be
the
person
who
owns
the
place.
C
So
also
you
know,
we
would
like
to
see
that,
and
and
and
and
I
mean
because
this
is
ridiculous
and-
and
it
just
don't
seem
right-
this
doesn't
sound
right
from
the
reports
and
the
things
that
they're
saying
and
I've
been
following
this
and
about
15
to
50
of
us
has
been
following
us,
but
also
I
say
this
again
is
that
this
shows
the
incompetence
of
our
police
administration
and
the
patrol
officers.
C
C
You
know
when
there's
when
there's
things
going
on
when
there's
things
that
need
to
be
investigated,
they
need
to
investigate
it
because,
but
I
see
I
see
that
a
lot
of
times
with
these
control
officers,
you
know
they're
doing
more
harm
than
good,
and
in
this
case
they
had
an
opportunity
to
observe
that
the
theme
there
were
children
outside
before
the
shooting
ever
started
before
they
scattered.
So
where
was
this
officer
at
what
was
going
on
with
this
officer?
Was
he
still
at
the?
What's
he
still
at
the
scene?
C
There's
a
lot
of
questions
to
this
and
we're
not
going
to
let
this
go
because
again,
you
know
again,
they
have
a
job
to
do.
They
have
a
responsibility,
and
if
there
was
a
car
there
again,
there's
a
north
ordnance
that
you
all
have.
They
should
have
shut
it
down
and
when
that
they
would
have
done
that
again,
maybe
lives
would
have
been.
V
V
When
you
do
the
right
thing,
you
don't
have
any
problems.
I've
raised
over
300
kids
in
the
juvenile
system
that
lives
with
me
all
different
nationalities.
Environment
changes
people.
It
says
right
here.
I
want
the
council
to
see
this
book
right
here.
It
says,
be
the
change
we
need
to
change
up
on
this
violence.
V
Let
them
know
that
there
is
a
god.
Let
them
know
that
we're
all
in
this
together
and
when
they
have.
When
you
come
to
this
program,
that
we
have
we're
gonna
have
all
the
little
kids
together
wearing
these
shirts.
That
says,
get
on
board
with
love.
I
came
off
with
these
shirts.
My
brother
got
murdered
in
1994
shot
in
the
back
cold-blooded
murder,
but
you
don't
fight
violence
with
violence.
You
fight
violence
with
faith,
wisdom
and
love
to
the
holy
spirit.
V
V
When
we
all
come
out
together
and
the
kids
see
the
council
from
all
over
come
together.
We
had
one
before
councilman
burgess.
Was
there
people
from
the
allegheny
county,
westmoreland
county,
all
of
them
together,
police
officers
with
their
kids
and
stuff
all
of
us
together
as
one
that's?
What
we
need
to
show
these
kids
and
the
media
needs
to
be
out
there
and
see
this
we've
been
doing
this
for
years,
and
it
needs
to
be
shown
out
there
get
the
tv
involved.
V
A
Thank
you.
Thank
you
for
your
comments.
Thank
you.
Thank
you
very
much.
Thank
you.
Are
there
any
further
speakers
wishing
to
address
city
council
seeing
no
further
speakers
move
on
to
the
next
order
of
business,
which
is
the
presentation
of
papers
and
we'll
begin,
but
with
councilman,
reverend
ricky,
burgess,
chair
of
urban
recreation,.
K
V
A
A
A
AE
I
president
wanted
to
take
a
take
a
moment.
I
think
now
would
be
appropriate
to
address.
AE
AE
Yeah
I
wanted
to
speak
to
the
bill,
but
primarily
first
I
want
to
just
address
how
we
got
to
this
point.
So
everyone's
aware,
it's
been
happening
over
the
past
a
few
weeks
in
the
in
the
well
past
months,
few
weeks
in
the
city
of
pittsburgh,
recent
increase
in
in
violence,
but
recently
on
the
north
side.
You
know
in
the
in
the
neighborhood
of
east
touchdown.
It
was
just
very
troubling
and
very
deeply
tragic
event.
That
happened.
AE
That's
occurring
is
just
deeply
troubling
and
I
think
that
the
people
that
were
there
affected
will
will
grapple
with
that
for
quite
some
time,
the
rest
of
their
life
most
likely,
and
so
I
just
want
to
take
a
moment
to
talk
about
that.
AE
You
know
there's
going
to
be
several
community
gatherings
folks
around
this
event.
That
happened
on
the
north
side,
and
I
also
want
to
make
sure
that
the
the
the
local
community,
where
this
took
place
you
know,
has
assurance
of
that.
You
know
like
tonight,
wouldn't
happen
tomorrow.
You
know
they
we're
trying
to
still
understand
the
details
of
the
event,
and
I,
like
you
know
for
that,
to
be
you
know,
front
and
center
in
a
community
meeting.
AE
So
I'm
organizing
that
as
well
for
the
local
community
and
they've,
been
extremely
helpful
in
terms
of
anything
that
they
know
you
know
working
with
public
safety
so
that
that
we
have
all
the
information.
AE
So
I
just
want
to
commend
the
community
of
east
east
town
for
for
stepping
up
and
and
and
trying
to
be
a
real,
a
real
partner
to
figure
out
everything
that
occurred.
I
want
to
thank
everyone
that
showed
up
on
the
scene.
You
know
after
to
to
address
the
situation,
and
I
you
know
I'm
going
to
get
to
the
talking
to
the
bill,
but
I
just
want
to
also
say
that
you
know
with
the
stop
the
violence
fund.
Recently.
AE
I've
been
going,
you
know,
because
the
bill
is,
I
mean
by
no
means
do
I
think
that
the
bill
is
going
to
address
violent
situations.
I
mean
I
just
want
to
make
that
clear.
AE
You
know,
but
in
council
and
what
we
can
do
and
what
what
you
have
been
doing,
and
I
think
all
the
all
other
council
people
here
in
some
capacity
has
thought:
how
can
we
regulate
short-term
rentals,
and
so
that
was
a
moment
that
came
together
here
in
the
past
48
hours,
where
we
have
been
working
jointly
together
to
bring
the
best
bill
forward,
and
you
know
I'm
motioned
to
make
the
role
the
way,
the
role
to
get
it
to
standing
committee.
AE
So
we
can
start
talking
about
this,
because
I
think
it's
important
that
we
address
this.
I
think,
if
people
would
you
know
you
know
here
have
been
you
know
the
community's
been
asking
for
it,
so
I
think
we're
we're
responding
to
the
community
as
well
here
so,
but
that
said,
you
know
no
way
sherman
ford.
I
think
that
this
is
you
know
the
the
pinnacle
moment.
That's
gonna
change
everything
this
is.
You
know
one
of
many
steps.
AE
I
think
that
you
know
there
needs
to
be
accountability
here,
but
in
terms
of
stopping
the
top
of
the
violence
and-
and
you
know
we
have
a
fund-
that's
supposed
to
speak
directly
to
this-
that's
where
we
fund
outreach
workers,
that's
where
we
fund
office
of
community
health
and
safety
staff.
AE
AE
Strategy
to
move
forward
so
that
we
can
spend
the
money
appropriately
and
to
strengthen
what
we
already
have
been
funding.
We
need
to
know
that
you
know
if
we
do
have
outreach
work,
outreach,
workers
going
and
talking
to
family
of
victims
that
you
know
we.
We
have
they're,
given
the
full
amount
of
resources
that
they
that
they
can,
that
we're
looking
into.
AE
We
can
strengthen
those
relationships
and
really
understand
just
a
very
a
very
robust
way
of
of
tackling
the
issue.
So
I
want
to
thank
council
president
for
for
and
also
councilman
gross,
who
are
working
over
the
past
48
hours
to
to
figure
something
out
initially
that
we
can
do
so.
I'm
looking
forward
to
the
conversation
tomorrow,
thank.
E
Y
I'd
like

be
added

H
A
A
Thank
you,
councilman
lavelle,
thank
you
and,
and
we're
going
to
address
some
other
things
that
I
think
make
other
members
feel
some
feel
comfortable
with
their
sponsorship
too.
Any
other
members
saying
no
further
members,
all
in
favor.

AD
It
I
want
to
thank
council
for
unanimously
recommending
a
positive
recommendation.
Last
week
and
we've
discussed
inclusionary
zoning
many
times
it
has
been
an
effective
tool
in
lawrenceville,
where
it's
created
about
40
new
units
of
affordable
housing
and
bloomfield
and
polish
hill
have
been
organizing
and
having
these
conversations
in
support
of
inclusionary
zoning.
AD
Now
for
years,
I've
attended
many
well-attended
public
meetings
about
affordability,
pressure
in
both
polish
hill
and
bloomfield,
and
the
neighborhoods
are
united
in
their
desire
to
make
sure
that
they
do
all
of
the
things
that
they
can
do
to
ensure
that
there
are
some
affordable
places
to
live
in
the
neighborhood.
AD
So
I
want
to
congratulate
bloomfield
development,
corporation
and
polish
hill,
civic
association
and,
of
course,
the
early
leadership
of
florenceville
corporation,
lawrenceville,
united
and
all
of
their
partner
organizations
that
have
helped
kind
of
create
the
first
overlay
district
in
lawrenceville
and
then
congratulate
the
the
neighbors
and
citizens
of
bloomfield
and
polish
hill
for
advocating
for
the
expansion
of
inclusionary
zoning
and
I
humbly
hope
that
council
will
positively
will
approve
fit.
Finally
today,
thank
you.
Madam

N
AF
Arrived
a
little
over
four
years
ago,
I
know
you've
been
working
on
it
and
probably
long
before
that
I'll
admit.
I
didn't
know
much
about
it.
When
I
came
in
now,
I'm
fully
versed
on
it
and
it
must
be
very
gratifying
to
see
dozens
and
dozens
of
it
actually
on
paper,
and
you
know
affordable
housing
that
you've
created.
So
congratulations
on
the
expansion
and
keep
up
the
good
work
thanks.
A
Thank
you
any
other
members.
I
just
want
to
congratulate
you
also
councilwoman.
I
know
how
hard
you
worked
for
this
and
how
hard
you
fought
for
this
and
for
your
communities.
So
I
just
want
to
congratulate
you
on
your
work
for
this,
although
I
don't
know
that
this
is
the
answer
for
all
the
city
of
pittsburgh,
especially
in
my
district,
we're
trying
to
incentivize
development.
So
I
don't
know
that's
perfect
for
my
area,
but
I
know
it's
what
your
area
needed,
and
I
know
you
know
what
your
area
needs.
A
So
thank
you
for
your
work
on
this.

E
E
But
two
weeks
ago
yesterday,
myself,
bob
charlin,
my
chief
of
staff,
barbara
rudiak
who's,
president
of
the
southside
community
council
and
allison
hardin,
who
is
our
nighttime
economy
coordinator,
would
have
attended,
but
had
some
family
health
issues
and
could
not
be
there.
E
But
we
attended
once
again
a
responsible
hospitality
conference
in
washington
dc,
and
the
topic
of
conversation
really
began
that
weekend
to
talk
about
how
a
social
industry
reinvents
itself
after
global
pandemic,
but
as
the
faith
would
have
it
friday
night,
there
was
a
mass
shooting
that
took
place
in
sacramento
and
the
tone
of
the
conference
took
a
drastic
turn
and
so
what
we
listened
to
from
city
after
city
after
city
after
city
across
the
united
states
and
even
other
nations
that
had
been
represented.
E
There
was
the
fear
and
frustration
of
really
every
major
city
of
the
possibility
of
mass
shooting
taking
place
in
social
venues,
and
I
use
the
term
social
venues
because
there
is
as
try,
as
I
may
for
the
last
15
years
have
been
trying
to
get
us
as
a
city
to
understand
that
a
city
operates
well
past
nine
to
five
monday
through
friday
that
there
is
a
whole
second
economy
that
takes
place
in
the
evenings
and
on
weekends
and
the
urgency
by
which
we
need
to
begin
taking
that
seriously
and
to
provide
resources
so
as
to
be
able
to
use
the
word
regulate
but
to
to
support
I'll
use
the
term
to
support.
E
And
I
got
a
call
from
mayor
gainey
that
saturday,
because
we
had
had
a
shooting
on
the
south
side
outside
of
walker's
pub
that
had
become
a
huge
point
of
conversation
on
social
media.
There
was
a
confrontation
outside
of
walker's
pub.
Two
young
men.
One
had
asked
the
other
one
for
a
ride
home.
He
did
not
want
to
ride
the
person
requesting
a
ride
home
didn't
want
to
ride
him
home,
so
he
shot
him
solution
right,
and
so
I
got
a
call
from
the
mayor.
E
We
talked
at
length
about
gun
violence
and
also
talked
to
deputy
mayor
jake,
and
we
talked
that
day
as
well
too
about
the
this.
E
You
know
cancer,
if
you
will
on
the
culture
that
has
that
is
known
as
gun
violence,
and
then
we
had
the
mass
shooting
in
sacramento
and
the
conversation
changed
and
so
spoke
with
the
mayor
again
smoke
at
length
on
monday,
when
I
return
with
deputy
mayor
jake
trying
to
offer
what
many
major
cities
are
considering
as
forms
of
solution
to
solve
or
to
at
least
begin
to
address
the
issue
of
gun
violence
within
social
venues,
and
we
have
continued
to
stay
in
touch.
E
I
should
say,
and
through
the
events
of
this
past
weekend,
I,
like
many
members
of
council,
spent
all
day
saturday,
all
day
sunday
and
all
day
monday,
and
I
never
left
the
phone.
I'm
sure
councilman
wilson
had
at
least
that
summer
of
an
experience
and
and
I'm
sure,
even
more
heightened
than
mine,
but
I
had
an
opportunity
to
talk
to
a
number
of
people
about
my
thoughts
about
how
we
begin
to
grapple
with
the
situation
of
of
gun
violence,
especially
as
it
relates
to
evening
and
social
venues.
E
Any
loss
of
life
is
tragic
on
all
fronts
and
at
the
same
time
there
are
certain
venues
within
the
city
that
make
it
prime
and
right
for
mass
shooting-
and
I
spoke,
of
course,
about
the
south
side
flats
and
I
compared
it
to
the
situation
that
happened
in
sacramento.
E
E
I
appreciate
the
the
emphasis
on
the
platform
that
provided
opportunity
for
the
violence
to
take
place,
and
I
will
and
am
supportive
of
regulation
of
short-term
rental
property
as
it
relates
especially
to
airbnb.
E
That
could
possibly
happen
with
short
or
I'm
sorry
happen
with
our
rental
registry,
and
I
also
want
to
emphasize
that
in
the
same
location
where
this
mass
shooting
took
place,
there
was
a
family
on
the
first
floor
that
was
using
it
responsibly.
E
They
had
come
from
the
carolinas,
I
believe
they
had
been
here
a
week
and
they
had
come
to
participate
in
the
city
spend
money
you
know,
engage
in
whatever
they
might
have
engaged
in
while
they
were
here.
Luckily,
they
had
the
the
the
sense
to
leave
when
they
saw
how
bad
the
situation
really
had
gotten
and
they
left
and
thank
god
they
were
not
there.
E
Having
said
that,
I
invited
bob
charlotte,
my
chief
of
staff
to
come
out
and
I'm
going
to
invite
him
to
come
to
the
table
tomorrow
when
we
have
the
discussion-
and
I
want
him
to
talk
specifically
about
airbnb's
neighborhood
support
team,
which
is
an
abysmal
joke.
E
If
you
have
issues
around
parties
that
are
taking
place
or
trash
that
isn't
being
managed
or
issues
around
parking,
airbnb
does
provide
opportunity
from
what
they
call
a
neighborhood
support
team
which
is
absolutely
impossible
to
get
through
and
to
get
any
kind
of
satisfaction
in
any
way
shape
or
form.
So
I
would
very
much
like
to
to
discuss
that
and
address
how
and
why
airbnb
operates
that
way
and
they
need
to
have
a
much
much
stronger
commitment
to
the
way
they
manage
the
properties
that
they
use
for
short-term
rental
care.
E
I
think
they've
learned,
I
hope,
they've
learned
a
very
valuable
lesson.
This
weekend
history
dictates
they
probably
haven't
and
probably
won't,
but
I
do
appreciate
the
willingness
that
they
do
want
to
come
to
the
table
and
help
to
discuss,
but
it's
a
it's
a
day
late
and
a
dollar
short,
because
now
lives
are
lost
and
not
the
first
time
it
was
two
years
ago,
two
people
lost
lives
in
an
airbnb
event
in
the
hill
district.
I
believe
in
councilman.
E
Lavelle's
district,
but
the
the
the
a
very
similar
situation
happened
friday
night
on
carson
street,
which
was
not
publicized
because
there
was
not
violence
associated
with
it.
But
my
phone
started
ringing
very
early
saturday
morning
because
there
is
a
a
landlord.
We
all
know
I'm
not
going
to
name
name
here,
but
we
all
know,
because
I
don't
have
definitive
information
that
it
is
definitely
connected
to
this
property.
But
we
have
every
reason
to
believe
that
it
is
where
the
same
kind
of
an
event
was
held.
E
I
got
called
saturday
morning
of
people's
dissatisfaction
that
it
was
loud
and
boisterous
and-
and
I
also
had
a
neighbor
that
found
a
gun
that
was
hidden
in
their
bushes,
and
so
I
bring
that
up
to
say
that
I
want
us
to
be
mindful
that
acts
of
violence
and
acts
of
mass
shootings
are
not
limited
to
location
that
we
each
and
every
one
of
us
can
fall
victim
at
a
moment's
notice
to
to
gun
violence
on
easter
sunday
at
a
store
in
the
2100
block
of
wharton
street.
E
E
All
four
actors
escaped,
they
have
not
been
apprehended,
but
it
almost
went
like
a
blip
on
the
radar
screen,
because
this
is
the
world
that
we're
living
in
today,
and
so
I'd
really
like
to
talk
a
little
bit
about
the
world
that
we're
living
in
today
that
what
what
scares
me?
E
No
end
and
what
I
hope
we
not
just
as
a
council
but
as
planners
managers
and
administrators
of
the
city,
come
to
understand
that
what
I
believe
we
are
in
at
least
a
second
generation,
if
not
a
third
generation,
that
we
have
raised.
That
believes
that
a
handgun
is
part
of
the
accoutrement
of
the
day
and
holds
no
different
importance
than
carrying
a
cell
phone
that
day,
and
we
hear
time
and
time
and
time
again
of
young
people.
E
I
spoke
with
the
district
attorney's
office
at
length
this
morning
and
he
had
called
not
the
d.a
but
the
deputy
died.
I
had
called
to
say
that
what
they
hear
time
and
time
again
is
that
young
people,
I
suspect
the
councilman-
will
probably
verify
this-
that
young
people
are
arming
themselves
because
everybody
else
is
armed
and
they
feel
they
need
to
be
armed
for
their
own
safety
and
how
and
why
we,
we
bear
responsibility
here
as
the
adults
in
the
room,
how
we
have
raised
two
to
maybe
a
third
generation
now
of
young
people.
E
That
truly
believe
that
the
you
know
the
completion
of
the
day
is
to
grab
the
cell
phone
and
make
sure
that
you
have
a
gun
in
your
presence
when
you
walk
out
the
door,
it
just
boggles
my
mind
and
anyone
who
wants
to
paint
this
as
strictly
a
black
american
problem
is
living
with
their
head
in
the
sand,
because
it
is
not.
It
is
a
generational
problem
as
I
like
to
call
it.
E
E
E
What
we
have
begged
through
two
generations
of
knowledge,
with
two
administrations
and
now
into
a
third
to
have
dedicated,
purposefully
trained
police
officers
in
nightlife
social
venues
that
understand
the
complexities
of
nighttime
social
venues
and
that
they
can
dedicated
teams
can
be
trained,
is
in
things
like
sound
ordinances
in
occupancy,
as
well
as
de-escalation,
but
it's
so
easy
for
us
just
to
throw
everything
into
a
police
officer's
lap
and
say
because
we
have
failed
to
plan
and
manage
and
administrate
in
our
role,
we'll
hand
it
off
to
you
and
you
just
need
to
fix
it.
E
E
If
we
had
building
inspectors
that
were
funded
and
were
out
and
understood
the
complexities
of
nighttime
social
venues,
perhaps
an
officer
would
have
been
able
to
call
an
inspector
to
ask
an
inspector
to
intervene.
That
inspector
would
have
understood.
They
were
clearly
over
occupancy
that
they
didn't
have
the
right
to
be
in
there
to
begin
with,
and
perhaps
a
couple
lives
could
have
been
saved.
E
E
E
How
very
important
this
industry
is
of
socialization
and
how
we
should
protect
and
nurture
the
industry
when,
when
the
pandemic
rules
were
lifted
last
summer-
and
many
of
you
know
this-
I
truly
believe
that
we
had
reached
some
level
of
understanding
of
how
important
food
and
beverage
and
entertainment
and
social
venues
were
to
the
health
and
well-being
of
the
city
and
the
the
revenues
that
they
provide
and
that
somehow
this
was
going
to
be
a
transformational
moment.
E
E
My
phone
blew
up
every
minute
of
every
day
last
summer,
as
we
tried
to
grapple
with
this
onslaught
of
gun
violence,
massive
crowds
that
seem
to
we
seem
to
have
a
generation.
That's
participating
in
in
these
venues
that
don't
believe
life
has
longevity
that
we're
living
only
for
this
moment
in
time,
and
what
I
do
and
how
I
react
right
now
is
all
that
matters,
and-
and
I
truly
hope
that
we
we
had
come
to
understand
and
we
didn't-
and
so
when
I
first
spoke
with
mayor
gainey
and
deputy
mayor
pollock
at
length.
E
I
said
this
is
not
the
end.
What
we
are
experiencing
at
walker's
pub,
what
we
are
experiencing
in
this
south
side
flats,
what
sacramento
is
experiencing
milwaukee
and
now
again
on
the
north
side
in
councilman,
wilson's
district,
we
have
mass
shooting.
This
is
just
the
beginning
of
the
long
hot
summer
ahead
and
if
we
think
that
this
is
done,
we're
living
with
our
heads
in
the
sand,
this
is
just
the
start
of
it.
E
So
while
I
applaud
the
council
president
councilman
wilson
for
the
actions
that
they're
taking,
which
I
support
and
I'm
happy
to
work
close
lee
with
them
on
the
regulation
of
short-term
rental,
the
the
the
genie
is
out
of
the
bottle-
and
this
is
a
a
massive
massive
call
to
action.
E
I
don't
want
to
hear
thoughts.
I
don't
want
to
hear
prayers.
I
don't
want
to
hear
no
more.
Never
again,
I
want
to
hear
a
concrete,
substantive
strategy
that
helps
us
to
understand
the
this,
this
cancerous
surge
of
gun
violence.
That
is
upon
not
just
us,
but
this
nation
as
a
whole
and
what
the
hell
we
are
going
to
do
about
it.
E
Those
are
my
comments.
They
were
very
long
but-
and
I
genuinely
appreciate
members
for
allowing
me
to
to
to
to
put
that
on
the
record,
but
I'll
end
by
saying
that
I'm
here
to
help
and
whatever
we
can
do
collectively
we're
being
called
to
do.
Thank
you
thank.
AF
Thank
you
and
thank
you
councilman
krauss.
I
I
really
just
want
to
start
with
recognizing
councilman
wilson,
your
leadership
over
the
past
weekend
with
that
tragedy
in
your
district
came
home
to
me
only
a
few
weeks
ago,
and
you
know
sometimes
I
know
you
feel
helpless
about
the
whole
thing.
It's
it's
a
hard
thing
to
deal
with
only
too
commonplace
for
councilman,
krause
and-
and
you
know,
found
some
councilman
burgess.
AF
Unfortunately,
we'd
all
like
to
think
that
the
gun
laws
we
could
you
know,
have
an
impact
there
and
and
get
guns
off
the
street
doesn't
seem
real
likely
to
happen
soon.
I
will
say
you
know
with
the
state
legislature
the
way
it's
made
up.
I
am
half
happy
and
grateful
for
you
know,
stop
the
violence
fund
that
we
funded
in
cornell
jones.
To
me,
that
was
very
impactful.
AF
Just
to
have
somebody
out
there
to
talk
to
people
was
very,
very
helpful.
I
also
want
to
recognize
the
brave
men
and
women
that
wear
the
badge.
You
know
it
comes
home
to
you
and
and
it
you
really
realize
the
danger
in
this
job
when
you're
called
out
to
an
incident.
Like
mr
wilson
had
the
other
night
with
90
plus
shots
fired,
and
you
know
they
again
rushing
into
danger,
while
others
are
rushing
out.
AF
So
I
want
to
thank
our
pittsburgh,
police
and
chief
schubert
for
everything
he's
doing
he's
got
his
hands
full.
I
know
I
agree
with
you
councilman
cross.
I
think
it's
a
generational
problem
as
much
as
anything.
I've
had
the
opportunity
to
get
into
pittsburgh
public
schools.
With
my
with
my
board
member
billy
gallagher,
I
think
you
need
to
start
hitting
kids
and
talking
to
kids
at
seven
eight
nine
years
old
at
this
point,
so
I'm
there
to
help
anything
I
can
do
you
know.
AF
AG
AG
When
the
tree
of
life
happened,
I
went
there
and
did
little.
I
could
to
just
be
of
comfort.
It
was
awful,
traumatic
and
should
have
never
happened,
and
I
still
pray
for
those
families
the
victims.
Over
the
weekend,
easter
sunday
morning,
some
of
us
were
celebrating
jesus
christ
and
what
it
means
in
our
lives.
And
then
we
are
reminded
of
the
ugly
side
of
life.
AG
AG
One
is
we
have
children
who
are
growing
up
traumatized
kervik
19
racism
has
traumatized
these
children.
They
are,
they
are.
They
are
growing
up,
some
of
them,
not
in
two-parent
households,
not
in
economically
advanced
they're
growing
up
in
in,
and
so
they
themselves
have
been
traumatized
by
life
number.
One
and
second
of
all
because
of
racism.
AG
Institutional
racism,
especially
in
pittsburgh,
they
are
growing
up
hopeless.
They
are
growing
up
in
communities
where
banks
don't
lend
to
them.
They
are
growing
up
in
communities
that
have
no
food,
no
drug
stores,
no
grocery
stores,
no
clothing.
This
is
homewood.
Homewood
has
no
drugstores,
no
grocery
stores,
no
clothing
stores,
no
sit
down
restaurants,
and
only
one
gas
station
at
the
end
of
on
the
last
possible
place
in
homewood.
AG
They
are
growing
up
poor
in
historically
disadvantaged
for
hundreds
of
years
or
at
least
scores
of
years,
and
so,
if
you
took
a
kid
from
brookline
beach
view-
and
you
put
them
in
this
environment
that
some
say
is
worse
than
places
in
south
africa.
What
do
you
think
that
kid's
gonna
be
being
bullied
and
hurt
and
traumatized?
Having
no
hope,
then
you
take
and
you
flood
it
with
guns,
because
I
we
have
a
country,
doc
river
said
it
better
than
I
could
say
it.
We
have
a
country
that
we
love.
AG
We
have
a
country
that
doesn't
love
us,
and
so
we
have
these
republicans
who
allow
guns
to
flow
into
the
nation
unchecked,
knowing
it
will
end
in
the
death
of
all
people
but
disreport,
but
make
no
mistake-
and,
let's
be
honest,
every
death
is
important.
I
say
that,
but
it
is
not
an
equal.
We
don't
share
this
burden.
Equally
gun
violence
disproportionately
affects
african
americans
disproportionately
by
overwhelming
numbers.
It
is
disproportionately
an
urban
problem.
That's
concentrated
in
poor
communities
right.
We
know
this.
We
know
that
you
are
ten
times
more
likely.
AG
Blacks
are
ten
times
more
likely
to
be
victims
of
gun
violence.
Eighteen
more
times,
victims
of
gun
assaults,
three
times
more
likely
to
be
shot
by
the
police.
It's
it's
disproportionately
in
poor
underserved
communities.
We
know
this
I've.
Since
I've
been
a
member
of
council.
In
my
council
district
we've
had
six
seven
hundred
die
die
in
the
14
years.
I've
been
a
member
of
council
right
okay,
so
if
so
it
interests
me
sometimes-
and
we
talk
about
this
right,
but
we
we
don't
do
anything
to
to
change
the
surrogated
communities
we
live
in.
AG
We
live
in
them
without
any,
without
without
without
them
we
don't.
We
don't
spend
our
time
trying
to
desegregate
our
communities.
We
don't
spend
our
time
making
sure
that
these
kids
have
opportunities
real
opportunities
to
get
out
of
the
hood
right.
We
don't
do
that.
We
let
their
communities
rot,
not
counsel,
we've
done
all
we
could.
The
city
has
done.
We
could
we
don't
have
enough
money
to
do
it
right.
We
need
the
private
sector
to
come
in
and
rebuild
these
communities.
We
know
that
we
need.
We
need
republicans
to
stop
the
floor
guns.
AG
We
know
that.
So
what
then
do
we
do?
I
don't
disagree
with
councilman
grouse.
I
don't
disagree
with
anybody
who
wants
to
start
violence.
We
we
have
to
make
a
priority
for
everybody,
whatever
whatever
the
place
is,
if
it's,
if
it's
places
of
of
hospitality,
let's
do
that.
AG
So
we
know
that
we
know
how
to
do
this.
Actually
we
know
we
have.
We
have
the
resources
to
do
it.
It
takes
a
comprehensive,
coordinated
effect.
More
police
officers
will
not
stop,
shooting
simply
arresting
people
will
not
stop
shooting.
What
you
have
to
do
is
coordinate
it
right
you
have
to
at
you,
have
to
deal
with
the
long-term
effects,
which
is
long-term
problems,
which
is
rebuilding
these
communities
and
giving
these
kids
hope
and
changing
their
schools
and
keep
them
from
being
beaten
up
and
dealing
with
their
trauma
and
giving
them
therapy.
AG
We
gotta
do
that
on
the
left-hand
side
right
right
right.
We
know
this.
We
have
to
have
the
intervention
workers
right.
We
know
that
on
the
street
right
and
we
have
to
have
smart
policing
that
does
not
sweep
in
a
broad
stroke
but
actually
targets
the
people
who
are
most
likely
to
do
violence,
and
we
know
that
too
and
tell
them
look.
We
don't
want
to
do
this,
but
if
you
don't
stop
this
lifestyle,
then
these
are
the
consequences
we
we
actually
know
how
to
do.
It.
AG
But
the
problem
is
we
are.
We
are
a
small
part
of
this
when
the
national
government
will
not
help
us
where
the
state
government
will
not
help
us,
because
they
don't
love
black
and
brown
people
and
be
honest
about
this
right
when
they
say
make
america
great
again.
What
they're
really
saying
is:
make
a
make
america
a
place
where
black
people
are
silent,
segregated
and
oppressed.
They
don't
love
us,
they
don't
care
about
us,
that's
why
they
allow
our
communities
to
rot.
AG
AG
We
get
away
from
that.
We
need
to
get
back
to
that
in
terms
of
the
deterrent
model,
and
I
hope
that
I'm
encouraging
us
to
do
that.
Hopefully,
we'll
get
back
to
some
of
those
things
that
we
stopped
under
the
previous
administration,
we'll
get
back
to
doing
them.
AG
But
we
are
we
do
not.
This
problem
is
part
and
parcel
of
the
institutional
racism
of
this
country.
It
you
can't
you,
don't
don't
don't?
Don't
don't
don't
if
you
start
killing
people
in
shadyside
on
a
regular
basis
if
you
start
killing
people
in
mount
lebanon
on
a
regular
basis,
if
you
start
killing
people
and
upper
saint
clear
on
a
regular
basis,
this
problem
would
stop
the
reason
it
doesn't
stop
is
because
it
disproportionately
affects
brown
and
black
people
in
democratically
controlled
urban
neighborhoods
and
those
people,
those
republicans
primarily
who
don't
love
us.
AG
K
P
AG
AG
They
drive
home
to
their
their
wealth
without
any
commitment
to
rebuilding
black
communities
where
the
heart
of
black
people
live
and
if
you
go
and
you
look
at
these
shootings
and
you
look
at
these
shooters
in
pittsburgh.
Since
I've
been
on
council
and
you
look
at
their
victims,
they
primarily
come
from
black
and
brown
neighborhoods
and
they're,
primarily
black
and
brown
people
who
are
growing
up
in
places
that
are
worse
than
third
world
countries
in
this
city.
AG
How
in
the
world
do
we
call
ourselves
the
most
livable
city
in
america
at
the
same
place
where
this
is
the
worst
place
for
african
americans
to
live
in
the
world
in
the
city
in
the
country?
This
is
the
worst
place
to
be
an
african-american,
and
we
not
the
council,
not
the
city,
but
the
greater
pittsburgh
community,
the
the
larger
community,
the
larger
for-profit
institutions.
Don't
put
money,
don't
help
us,
don't
give
us
money
our
school,
the
white
flight
out
of
the
schools,
our
kids
can't
read,
they
can't
read.
AG
I
I
applaud
having
the
men
in
here,
but
kids
can't
read.
They
can't
do
math
they're
following
that
standardized
testing
and
we're
all
acting
like
this
is
okay.
It's
not
okay
and
we're
not
doing
the
things
that
we
know
works.
We
know
how
to
do
this.
We
know
how
we
know
our
kids
got
to
go
beyond
school.
We
they
have
to
do
three
or
four
hours
more
of
homework.
Every
day,
if
they're
gonna
ever
catch
up,
the
pandemic
meant
that
these
children
are
not
they're,
not
just
behind
like
they
were.
AG
AG
We
have
kids
who
have
who
are
more
traumatized
than
they've
ever
had
before
as
the
principles
they're
absolutely
hyperactive,
there's
less
resources
to
deal
with
the
kids,
there's
less
counseling
and
therapy
to
deal
with
these
kids
and
they're
going
into
communities
where
the
pandemic
has
destroyed
the
little
the
little
job.
The
little
businesses
we
had
have
all
died.
The
black
businesses
have
died
during
the
candidate
had
almost
50
percent
of
all
black
businesses
have
died
during
the
pandemic,
and
so
now
the
community
is
worse.
AG
After
the
pandemic,
the
kids
are
worse
storm
pandemic
and
the
white
republicans
sorry,
mostly
white
republicans,
is
not
racial,
but
it
is.
They
are
flooding
the
guns
with
their
they're
flooding
we're.
We
have
the
highest
gun
sales
than
ever
before.
Guns
are
everywhere
right,
not
just
guns
guns
with
30.
You
know:
30
shots
and
and
sub
and
and
automated
guns
it's
the
work.
This
is
nuts.
AG
I'm
a
man
of
faith
so
we're
gonna.
Have
this
conversation
I
might
as
well
speak
the
truth
number
one.
The
bible
says
if
my
people,
who
are
called
by
my
name,
will
humble
themselves
and
pray
seek
my
face
and
turn
from
their
wicked
ways.
I
will
hear
from
heaven
I
will
forgive
their
sins.
I
will
heal
their
land.
So
first
of
all
we
got
to
pray.
AG
Those
of
us
who
believe
in
the
I
believe
I'm
I'm
here
today,
because
my
mama
prayed
for
me
when
I
was
in
the
street
trying
to
party
and
clubbing
and
doing
wrong.
My
mama
was
praying
for
me.
She
prayed
me
into
into
into
salvation
into
safety,
so
there's
a
place
for
that.
There's
a
place
for
prayer.
We
gotta
do
that
right.
We
know
to
do
that
and
then
we
need
to
sit
down
those
of
us
as
much
as
we
can
and
establish
a
com
in
a
concentrated.
AG
Comprehensive
model
where
we're
using
every
available
resources
where
we
are
together,
where
I
agree
with
mr
cross,
we
have
to.
We
have
to
do
the
nighttime
stuff
right
that
that
that's
the
place
right
and
we
have
to
do
the
airbnbs
and
that's
the
place,
and
we
have
to
do
the
the
the
lobby,
for
you
know
stricter
gun
laws
we
get
back
to
plays
and
we
got
to
do
the
the
this.
AG
The
stop
the
violence
fund,
that's
the
place,
and
we
got
to
do
the
intervention,
that's
the
place,
but
we
have
to
do
it
together
on
the
same
page,
using
all
the
resources
and
the
police
and
the
community
organizations
must
all
do
this
in
a
comprehensive
way.
If,
if,
if
these
events,
don't
tell
us
that
we
got
to
do
this
together
and
we
got
to
rebuild
communities
and
we
got
to
create
businesses,
and
we
can,
we
can
do
it
right,
we
can
do
this,
it
will
cost
us
some
money.
AG
We
can
we
can
rebuild
these
communities.
Of
course
we
can.
We,
we
they're
going
to
rebuild
when
when
the
war
is
over,
they
will
be
built.
Ukraine
they'll
rebuild
we're
carrying
we.
We
know
that
when,
when
this
is
over
trust
me
you'll
see
the
international
money
to
rebuild
ukraine.
We
have
the
resources
to
rebuild
homewood.
We
have
the
money
to
do
it.
It's
not
a
question
of
money,
it's
a
question.
Do
we
love
black
and
brown
people?
AG
That's
really
the
question
and
if
we
love
and
america
often
doesn't
love
us,
if
america
loves
us,
it
will
put
its
resources
behind
us
and
when
you
have
hope
you
don't
shoot.
So,
I'm
I'm
going
to
work
with
everybody.
The
administration.
I
have
been
quietly,
I'm
I'm
quality,
hopefully
working
with
them.
I'm
working
with
council
I'm
working
with
community
groups,
but
but
these
kids.
AG
AG
AG
AG
It
is
heartbreaking,
it's
it's
a
national
shame,
but
it
will
take
all
of
us
and
we've
been
working
together,
and
I
I'm
a
little
emotional
because
it
hurts
me
so
much,
but
we
can
we
we
we
can
do
this
together.
We
can
help
the
south
side.
We
can
help
the
north
side
help
home
would
help
to
heal.
We
can
do
this
together,
but
it
it
will
take
concentrated
disciplined
effort
and
everybody
must
play
a
part.
AG
E
While
I'm
sitting
here,
I
get
an
email
from
how
we
know
the
event
on
friday.
Night
happened
on
east
carson
street,
thank
god
for
community
people
that
keep
an
eye
out.
This
is
something
that
we
locally.
E
The
district
attorney's
office
of
police
nuisance
bar
has
been
tracking
these
kinds
of
spaces
opening
all
the
time
throughout
last
summer
and
now
into
this
summer,
and
this
is
something
that
regulation
of
short-term
rental
isn't
going
to
address,
because
they
don't
give
a
crap
about
being
legit,
short-term
rental
right,
they're
they're
just
out
to
make
a
fast
buck
that
weekend
and-
and
you
know
let
the
ships
fall
where
they
may.
E
So,
this
party
was,
and
I'm
gonna
leave
names
out,
but
this
was
clearly
the
building
is
clearly
owned
by
an
llc
that
is
in
north
for
sales.
E
It
is
an
actor
that
we've
been
chasing
for
months
and
months
and
months
that
skips
up
and
down
the
street
till
they
find
someone
else
who's
willing
to
let
them
in
to
hold
the
the
rave.
I
don't
know
if
that's
the
right
term,
I
shouldn't
say
that,
but
to
hold
the
event.
It
was
clearly
indicated
throughout
social
media
platforms,
which
really
concerns
me
that
are
are.
We
are
our
planners
managers
administrators,
given
the
resource
need
needed
to
track
these
kinds
of
things
it
was
advertised
to
be
on
carson.
E
And
I
I
have
an
email
and
and
a
contact
for
the
llc
that
is
is
running
or
leasing.
I
guess
I'm
not
sure
what
I
want
to
say
this
property.
This
is
where,
and
you
know
I
might
be
getting
a
little
strong
here
but
desperate
times
call
for
desperate
measures.
I
would.
I
would
hope
that
there
are
provisions
within
law
that
people
that
do
contract
to
have
these
kinds
of
spaces
held,
especially
for
underage
kids,
where
alcohol
is
involved
and
death
occurs,
are
held
for
negligent
homicide.
A
You
any
other
members,
so
first,
I'm
going
to
address
the
part
about
the
legislation
for
the
short-term
rentals
that
actually
started
actually
in
2013
2015
with
councilwoman
gross.
She
first
looked
at
it
and
then
years
had
gone
by
and
so
then
about
two
months
ago.
I
approached
our
city,
solicitor
or
council
solicitor.
A
I'm
sorry
and
asked
him
if
he
could
help
me
write
something
for
short-term
rentals,
because
we
are
having
so
many
issues
across
the
city
of
pittsburgh
and
in
particular
my
district
in
mount
washington
and
duquesne
heights,
where
people
are
purchasing
homes
having
parties
you
know,
taking
over
the
streets,
all
the
things
that
are
happening
and
have
been
happening
in
all
of
our
districts,
and
so
he
had
helped
me
write.
A
It
was
actually
completed
last
week
and
this
happened
with
councilman
wilson
and
he
called
me
and
he
was
working
on
something
as
well,
and
he
actually
amen
added
to
the
bill
to
strengthen
it,
a
little
bit
to
make
sure
that
he
addressed
the
concerns
for
his
district
too,
and
I
do
want
to
congratulate
you,
and
I
mean
it
was
not.
You
know
a
good
thing
that
happened
this
week.
It
was
horrible,
but
you
have
done
a
great
job
in
the
way
you've
worked
with
the
administration.
A
The
way
that
you
are
addressing
the
concerns,
the
way
that
you
want
to
continue
to
address
the
concerns.
I
think
the
community
is
fortunate
to
have
somebody
who
was
caring
was
so
compassionate
about
them,
and
so
I
mean
I've,
never
seen
you
talk,
it's
somebody
you
could
tell.
It
was
really
hurting
you
personally
that
you
really
want
to
help
the
community,
and
for
that
I
think
that
they,
they
are
fortunate
having
you
it's
horrible,
what
happened?
A
It's
horrible,
how
you
know
everything
that
occurred
that
day
and
I
feel
terribly
for
the
families,
and
I
offer
our
condolences
to
the
families
of
the
victims
that
were
that
were
killed,
but
but
also
all
the
victims.
I
mean
it's
just
you
know.
I
I'm
just
so
sad
that
anything
anybody
went
through
anything
like
this,
but
I
think
one
thing
became
clear
is
a
lot
of
these
kids
went
to
our
some.
A
A
lot
of
kids
went
to
some
of
our
schools
and
we
started
getting
information
from
some
of
our
teachers,
so
it
really
talks
about
the
importance
of
our
relationship
with
the
school
district
and
making
sure
that
we're
working
together.
But
I
do
want
to
address
the
part
about
carmen
brown's
comments
about
the
police.
It's
my
understanding.
The
police
can't
even
go
into
a
place
if
they're,
if
they
smell
marijuana
or
if
they
smell
somebody
getting
high
or
something.
A
So
I
I
don't
want
to
say
that
our
police
should
have
went
through
there,
because
I
don't
know.
I
don't
know
that.
That's
true
or
not
that's
something
I
am
trying
to
find
out
and
get
to
the
bottom
of.
But
if
our
police
officers
went
in
there
with
the
type
of
people
that
they
would
have
needed
to
break
up
a
party
of
200
that
would
have
been
on
the
media
that
would
have
been
in
social
media
that
would
have
been
all
over
the
media
and
people
would
have
been
criticizing.
A
The
officers
then
for
breaking
up
a
party
with
nothing
going
on.
It
became
an
issue
when
there
was
a
shooting
and
that's
and
then
at
that
point
the
police
did
come
back.
That
did
respond,
but
I
think
it's
a
conversation
that
we
have
to
have
with
people.
You
know
police
are
part
of
the
equation.
A
They're
part
of
the
answer
just
like
the
community
is,
but
I
think
that
none
of
us
really
knows
the
answer
and
what
to
do,
and
I
think
that
we
have
spent
millions
of
dollars
on
it
on
the
nighttime
economy
on
you
know,
anti-violence
programs,
millions
of
dollars
and
I
think,
everybody's,
pointing
the
finger
at
one
another
they're
pointing
the
finger
at
the
police
they're
pointing
the
finger
at
the
parents.
People
want
parents
to
go
to
jail.
Well,
god
I
mean
all
of
our
parents
probably
would
have
went
to
jail.
A
You
know
for
things
that
we
did
that
they
didn't
know
about.
So
I
just
want
to
say
I
think,
it's
time
to
stop
pointing
the
fingers
and,
let's
figure
out
what
we
can
do
collectively
and
we
are
doing
some
of
that
with
some
funding.
But
I
really
think
the
people
we're
leaving
out
of
this
conversation
are
our
kids
and
we
should
really
be
sitting
down
with
some
of
them
and,
I
think,
maybe
working
with
cornell
jones,
who
has
been
amazing,
cornell
jones,
reverend
glenn
grayson
have
just
done.
A
You
know
as
much
as
two
human
humans
can
do
across
the
city
to
address
the
violence,
but
they
do
work
with
a
lot
of
young
people,
so
I
think
we
should
sit
down
with
them
and
try
to
work
together
with
some
of
the
younger
people
and
get
to
find
out
what
it
is.
A
I
think
maybe
some
of
the
money
we're
using
for
some
community
groups
may
actually
be
better
if
we
used
it
for
jobs
for
young
people,
maybe
better
if
we
employed
people
and
and
helped
people
and
and
helped
people
that
are
returning
from
prison.
We
know
that
we
know
that
this.
These
are
efforts
that
are
already
ongoing,
but
is
it
enough?
And
what
is
needed
from
us-
and
I
hear
reverend-
I
think
we
all
have
some
things
that
we
would
like
to
see
happen.
I
also
want
to
see
a
police
class
come
on.
A
A
A
They
have
some
plans,
and
so
I
think
that,
knowing
that
they're
working
on
and
cognizant
of
what
needs
to
happen
gives
us
faith,
but
he
can't
do
it
alone.
We
can't
expect
him
to
do
it
alone.
We've
got
to
all
sit
down
together
and
I
think,
starting
with
the
kids
is
a
way
to
go
and
as
far
as
thoughts
and
prayers.
A
Madam
clerk
and
I
talked
yesterday
thoughts,
thoughts
and
prayers
was
it
faith
without
works
is
dead,
and
so
I
think
that
you
know
I'm
going
to
pray,
but
I'm
going
to
pray
that
we
come
up
with
some
really
good
solutions
and
make
sure
that
we
are
putting
some
some
programs
forward
that
are
different
and
help
address
some
of
this
stuff.
But
I
really
think
first
things.
