B
Thank
you
and
I
will
mention
that
we're
also
joined
by
councilwoman
strasberger,
any
other
members
yeah,
and
so
we're
going
to
begin,
but
I
do
want
to
say
that
members
will
be
coming
out
as
we
go
through.
The
interviews
and
I
want
to
say
that
we
have
several
interviews
here.
So
please
keep
your
questions
and
comments
directed
towards
the
pointy
at
the
time
and
towards
the
interview
process.
B
I
will
also
add
that,
as
you're
being
interviewed
and
you're
asked
questions,
you
have
to
wait
for
council
members
to
ask
you
a
question
and
give
you
the
opportunity
to
speak
back.
Otherwise
they
may
make
a
comment
and
not
want
a
response
back,
but
you
can
always
ask
if
you
can
respond
with
that
said
we're
going
to
begin
with
the
public
art
committee.
We
have
one
appointment
and
can
we
have
them?
Who
is
The
appointee
Madam
Clerk.
B
E
D
B
B
B
Tell
me
when
she
comes
back
on
so
I'll
just
say
the
Andy
Warhol
Museum.
Thank
you
for
bringing
that
wealth
of
knowledge
and
information
to
to
this
commission
and
I
I
will
say
my
neighbor
growing
up,
Mr
Fitzpatrick
actually
taught
Andy
Warhol
how
to
paint
when,
when
he
was
younger,
so
yeah
he
didn't
teach
me
anything
okay,
better
anyway.
So
is
there
anything
you'd
like
to
say,
while
we're
waiting
for
councilman
just.
D
B
You
and
so
do
we
have
councilwoman
strasberger
back
yet,
no
so
I'm
just
going
to
say
I
hope
that
you'll
be
a
voice
for
Mike
Mike.
Only
concern
is
always
when
people
come
to
the
table
as
I
ask.
What
can
you
bring
to
the
West,
End
or
District
2
area,
because
there's
a
lack
of
Art
and
public
art?
We
had
a
few
few
pieces
done
like
paintings
and
and
Sheridan
actually
got
so
bad.
B
Somebody
took
out
the
one
installation
two
installations
now
Sarah
will
have
to
talk
about
the
one,
but
two
installations
in
my
district
I
think
the
public
process
you
know,
needs
to
be
broadened
a
little
bit
because
sometimes
people,
but
it's
like
with
everything.
Until
people
see
it,
they
don't
realize
whether
they're
gonna
love
it
or
hate
it
or
whatever.
And
for
my
district
there
was
one
a
group
of
students
took
out
and
shared
and
then
a
group
an
artist,
had
to
have
hers
removed
from
Washington.
B
D
You,
like
me,
would
you
would
you
yeah
I'm
just
happy
to
yes,
my
my
sister
and
her
very
young
family
at
the
time
were
one
of
the
200
families
that
lived
in
Weston
proper
for
a
long
time,
so
I'm
very
familiar
and
I've
done
a
bunch
of
advocacy
work
with
the
Sheridan
library,
with
the
Greenfield
school
and
with
various
Community
groups
that
are
based
in
the
West
End,
like
Keisha
Greenway,
School
Greenway.
Excuse
me.
A
D
And
helped
to
finance
a
learning
pod
in
the
height
of
the
pandemic
crisis,
so
that
children
had
a
physical
environment
to
go
to
while
school
was
not
available
to
them,
and
so
the
territory
is
very
familiar.
I'm,
a
northsider
through
and
through,
and
so
also
very
familiar
with
the
district,
both
on
school
board
and
Zoning
processes
and
I.
B
B
B
D
Think
that
a
it's
important
that
we
have
critical
eyes
on
and
including
in
our
government,
but
also
then
it's
a
huge
opportunity
for
me
as
a
Northside
resident
and
also
someone
who
was
born
and
raised
in
Pittsburgh
to
help
and
liven
and
continuously
refresh
the
land
and
the
territory
and
arts
and
culture
here,
because
it
really
is
an
economic
driver
and
a
public
health
concern.
When,
when
we
see
public
art
in
the
public,
Realm.
F
F
Conversations
and
you
know,
perspectives
that
are
brought
into
this
process
and
I'm
really
hopeful
for
what
it
can
do
for
the
city
and
its
promotion
of
everything
that
touches
Civic
designer
art,
I'm
glad
you
mentioned
public
health,
because
I
do
think
that
falls
under
that
Banner
as
well.
So
thank
you
for
your
willingness
to
serve.
B
G
G
All
right,
thank
you
and
it's
great
to
see
you
here
and
I
appreciate
your
interest
and
willingness
to
serve
on
the
Housing
Opportunity
fund.
Advisory
Board,
you
know,
I
am
I'm
curious.
How
in
your
mind,
if
any
connections
that
occur
to
you
between
the
kind
of
investments
in
main
streets
and
in
Small,
Business
and
Entrepreneurship
and
housing
stabilization,
because
I
I
kind
of
have
them
all
on
my
bullet.
I
I
I
do
believe
that
they
are
very
much
connected.
I,
think,
homeownership
and
Entrepreneurship
are
signals
of
stable
communities,
I
think
the
more
homeownership
you
have
and
the
more
community-based
entrepreneurship
you
have.
It's
a
strong
signal
of
a
revitalized
neighborhood,
so
I
think
they
definitely
go
together.
I
think
from
an
individual
family
standpoint,
homeownership
can
be
an
impetus
to
entrepreneurship.
G
It's
wonderful
to
hear
we
I
sometimes
often
say
it
also
is
they're
both
different
kinds
of
wealth
building
and
too
often
some
of
the
economic
development
programs
that
cities
have
done
kind
of
suck
wealth
out
of
neighborhoods
and
I.
Think
it
should
be
the
concern
of
this
table
to
make
sure
we're
helping
our
residents
build,
will
absolutely.
A
G
E
I
So
I
have,
to
be
honest,
I,
don't
know
a
lot
about
how
the
funds
have
been
distributed.
That
does
sort
of
give
me
pause,
considering
that
the
work
that
I
do
is
specific
to
helping
vulnerable
populations
of
families
become
homeowners,
I,
don't
know
a
lot
of
families
that
we've
worked
with
that
have
received
funds
from
housing
opportunities,
so
one
of
the
things
that
I
would
love
to
be
contributing
to
is
helping
to
Market
and
increase
information
reaching
the
community
about
the
funds
and
how
they
are
accessed.
A
I
I
do
think
it
would
be
very
beneficial.
It's
one
of
the
things
that
I'm
hoping
to
be
a
conduit
to
getting
that
information
specifically
to
the
organization
organizations
that
are
working
directly
with
people
on
the
ground.
So
the
more
information
that
organizations
like
ours
and
other
housing
counseling
agencies
have
about
these
funds
and
these
programs
the
better.
We
can
get
that
information
to
prospective
buyers.
Yeah.
E
A
I
F
I
wanted
to
allow
you
to
just
expand
on
or
give
you
the
opportunity
if
you
wanted
to
to
expand
on
the
your
priority,
your
prioritization
of
home
ownership
and
whether
that
was
home
ownership.
In
addition
to
you,
know
expanding
opportunities
for
home
ownership,
in
addition
to
rental
or
kind
of
prioritizing
that
over
what
I
think
is.
F
I
Yeah
so
I,
you
know
from
my
perspective
and
I,
can't
believe
how
long
I've
been
doing
work.
It's
been
a
long
time,
but
from
my
perspective,
as
a
city
as
a
county
I
think
there
has
been
an
imbalance
in
the
focus
on
housing,
I
think
because
we
have
been
trying
to
Stave
off
a
rental
housing
crisis
for
so
long
that
we
have
also
neglected
the
importance
of
wealth
building
through
home
ownership
and
creating
opportunities
for
the
most
vulnerable
populations
of
people
to
build
wealth
through
home
ownership.
I
A
I
All
it
takes
is
a
drive
through
them
to
see
that
that
lack
of
investment
in
homeownership
Opportunity
is
contributing
to
the
deterioration
of
our
communities.
So
I
think
it's
extremely
important
to
to
hyper
focus
on
that.
What
can
we
do
to
expand
the
inventory
right?
We
have
to
extend,
expand
the
inventory
so
as
we
and
others
like
us
who
are
in
this
space
of
housing,
counseling
and
educating
people
to
become
homeowners,
we
are,
we
are
preparing
people
at
a
rate
much
higher
than
the
inventory.
I
B
But
I
we're
always
advocating
for
that.
So
I
hope
that
that
will
be
you'll,
be
another
voice.
To
advocate
for
some
of
that,
one
of
the
things
I
also
want
to
talk
about
is
and
I
hope
that
the
Housing
Opportunity
fund
will
do
more
of
is
in
my
district.
We
have
a
lot
of.
We
have
an
overabundance
of
housing,
affordable
housing.
We
actually
need
some
market
rate
housing.
B
To
stabilize
the
neighborhood
and
that's
what
the
study
said:
that's
what
everybody's
but
I've,
added,
even
more
affordability.
Since
then,
I've
added,
more
I
worked
with
people
to
add
more,
but
one
of
the
things
I
did
was
in
ferrywood.
They
have
been
asking
for
years,
the
residents
they
want
to
stay
in
fairywood.
B
They
can't
maintain
their
homes
even
with
help
from
this
Housing
Opportunity.
It's
just
not
enough
yeah
and
it's
not
enough
and
physically.
They
just
can't
do
some
of
the
things,
so
they
needed
new
space.
So
we
actually
are
building
affordable
patio
homes
in
ferrywood,
so
the
residents
can
stay
there
about
44,
I,
think
units
all
individual
homes,
but
they'll
have
they'll,
have
their
independence,
but
they'll
have
a
safer
home
but
I've
talking
with
seniors
across
the
city
of
Pittsburgh.
B
It's
an
issue
across
Pittsburgh
and
we
don't
have
a
lot
of
patio
homes
in
Pittsburgh
right
outside
the
city.
We
have
lots
of
them,
but
there's
just
not
a
real
effort
to
keep
people
in
the
in
the
city
of
Pittsburgh
once
their
home
is
become
too
unmanageable
for
them.
So
I
hope
that
that
will
be
some
of
the
other,
affordable
housing
that
you
advocate
for
is
homes
for
seniors.
I
I
think
you're,
absolutely
right,
I
mean
I,
just
I
hate
to
say
it,
but
we've
been
neglectful.
We've
been
neglectful
in
this
space
and
and
thinking
about
I
think
we
may
be
suffering
from
Anna.
You
know:
analyzation
paralysis,
right,
we're
constantly
analyzing
analyzing
analyzing,
but
real
estate
is
one
of
those
spaces
that
you
have
to
move.
You
have
to
have
some
action.
Things
have
to
happen.
I
We
have
got
to
be
more
creative
and
Innovative
about
sustaining
and
developing
new
inventory,
and
we've
got
to
do
it
because
the
people
with
cash
are
doing
it
and
they're
doing
it
and
they're
sitting
on
property
they're,
not
in
a
lot
of
cases,
even
interested
in
renting
or
selling
it.
They
just
want
to
hold
it.
So
we've
got
to
make
some
movement
really
really
soon
as
a
city
in
a
county
or
we're
going
to
continue
to
lose
our
population
at
very
high
rates.
B
So
one
of
the
things
that
makes
me
absolutely
insane
is
in
Sheridan
there's
a
lot
of
people
coming
in
buying
homes,
renovating
them
and
they
renovate
a
lot
of
the
homes
without
permits
and
our
inspections,
I'm
telling
I
mean
they'll
say
we
stopped
them
or
we
to
put
a
work.
You
know,
stop
work
order,
I'm,
sorry,
this
doesn't
happen
in
other
boroughs
around
surrounding
my
district.
It
just
doesn't,
and
so
when
I
see
it
happening
here
in
Pittsburgh,
I
think
we're
we're
allowing
it
to
happen.
B
You
know
we're
contributing
to
the
blight
in
a
lot
of
ways
between
our
own
lack
of
investment
from
Ura
into
some
of
our
neighborhoods
and
also
by
the
lack
of
enforcement
in
areas
that
should
be
in
have
things
enforced,
and
so,
when
I
see
Sheridan
getting
overtaken
by,
you
know,
rental
properties
that
are
not
from
people
outside
the
city.
Who
can't
hold
anybody
accountable.
B
It
makes
me
so
angry
because
I
feel
like
we're
contributing
to
that,
because
a
stop
work
order
is
one
thing,
but
I've
seen
them
tell
people
that
they
had
to
take
down
a
deck
they
had
to
take
down.
I
had
at
the
same
time
they
weren't
enforcing
some
of
these
permits
in
the
city,
or
they
were
according
to
the
way
they
enforced
them.
B
There
was
a
woman
in
one
time
in
Elliott
who
was
replacing
slats
in
her
fence
three
slats
and
she
got
sighted
and
then,
when
she
got
sighted
she
ate
got
slapped
with.
Then
you
had
to
have
an
occupancy
permit,
so
her
fence
ended
up
costing
her
so
much
money
and
she
was
just
trying
to
replace
something.
A
B
B
That
a
lot
of
times,
those
places
that
are
doing
it
that
way
are
subpar
housing
and
they
don't
have
adequate
heat
electricity,
water.
We
had
one
in
the
Water
and
Sewer
Authority
shut
off
all
their
water
for
all
the
properties
that
they
owned
and
he
was
still
renting
every
one
of
those
facilities
and
some
of
them
were
in
ferrywood
and
and
some
were
in
Sheridan.
So
but
yet
he
lived
in
the
suburb
right
next
door.
So
so
it
kind
of
it.
I
Needs
to
have
happened,
absolutely
I,
think
holding
our
public
accountable
is,
is
really
important.
Holding
our
public
institutions
that
were
designed
to
support
the
community
and
to
serve
specifically
the
most
vulnerable
populations
of
people.
We
we've
got
to
hold
them
accountable
and
yeah.
That's
all
I.
B
B
All
the
stories
about
BBI
the
horror
stories
and
I
got
it
I'm
thinking
of
God
and
then
then
I
met
some
of
them
I'm
like
wow.
This
is
this
is
a
tough
and
it's
difficult
to
do
some
of
the
work
in
the
community,
so
yeah
I
mean
I
think
that
they
have
a
difficult
job
but
I
think
there's
also.
We've
got
to
sometimes
think
outside
the
box
and
do
things
a
little
bit
differently.
H
B
B
B
A
L
L
K
Abandoned
car
in
a
public
right-of-way
as
beyond
the
parking
Authority's
purview,
that's
beyond
the
parking
Authority's
purview
if
it's
not
a
metered
spot
or
a
leased
spot.
That's
not!
There's
a
state
law
that
governs
how
to
handle
abandoned
Properties
or
you
know,
in
this
case
cars.
So
every
according
to
state
law
in
the
Commonwealth
of
Pennsylvania.
K
A
B
Apologize
councilman
I
just
want
to
make
sure
that
that's
clear
for
the
public,
because
I
think
a
lot
of
times.
People
are
wondering
why
you
know
we
yeah
why
somebody
doesn't
do
this
or
somebody
doesn't
do,
there's
definitely
roles
that
are
that
are
identified
according
to
state
law
for
a
lot
of
the
stuff
that
we
do,
but
I'm
sorry
did
you
have
anything
else.
Did
you
want
to
say
anything.
E
You
know
I
mean
I
I
I,
appreciate
that
there's
a
state
law,
but
at
the
same
time
I
feel
like
we
sometimes
do
get
into
these.
We
get
boxed
into
this
like
well,
there's
nothing!
We
can
do
you
know,
and
it
is
an
issue
right
and
if
there's
a
car-
and
this
is
not
for
this-
is
just
in
general-
I
mean
we
do
have
a
parking
authority.
If
you
have
a
car
parked
in
your
private
lot,
you
can
have
it
towed.
E
A
E
B
M
We
were
actually
having
a
executive
session
for
the
parking
authority
before
I
walked
in
the
door,
and
so
you
know,
there's
there's
always
a
always
a
busy
schedule,
but
I
want
to
just
recognize
that
even
you
know
in
current
times
where
we
will
go
over
as
or-
and
it's
a
pleasure
to
to
you
know,
see
you
here
and
I,
had
a
pleasure
working
in
the
past
and
looking
forward
to
working
with
you
again
and
yeah.
So
even
like
two
seconds
ago.
Yes,.
L
A
M
A
M
L
To
have
a
question-
and
let
me
make
it
perfectly
clear:
I
I've,
just
been
appointed
just
within
a
matter
of
months
ago
and
receiving
the
information
has
been
very
educational
on
part.
The
parking
authority
I
believe
our
city,
face
of
most
of
our
authorities
face
uphill
battles
in
a
lot
of
areas,
especially
when
it
comes
to
dealing
with
the
public.
L
I
know
when
I
say
uphill
battles
you
bring
up
abandoned
cars.
Thank
you
for
addressing
that.
We
we
deal
with
homeless
that
want
to
sleep
in
garages,
we
deal
with
a
pluffer
of
of
public
issues,
being
educated
within
a
less
last
three
weeks
on
the
authority
itself
and
how
we
are
able
to
grow
some
Revenue,
which
I
just
missed.
That
meeting,
which
was
a
financial
meeting
and
I,
was
hoping
to
get
more
information
prior
to
this,
but
I
think
a
lot
of
times.
L
You
know
we
have
a
lot
of
missed
opportunities
where
we
can
think
outside
of
the
box
and
began
to
tackle
some
of
the
issues,
as
it
relates
to
a
lot
of
our
authorities
and
and
the
young
lady
that
went
before
me,
who
is
very
impressive,
with
thinking
to
me,
outside
of
the
box
on
how
to
tackle
some
of
our
home
ownership
and
Home
Affordable
housing
issues
as
I
serve
on
the
board.
What
I
bring
to
the
table?
L
It's
definitely
a
different
approach.
You
know
it's
not
just
about
you
know
it's
this,
it's
not
just
about
how
to
to
to
to
to
keep
revenue,
but
also,
how
is
our
communities
affected
by
some
of
how
we
generate
Revenue
as
well?
And
my
thoughts
are,
you
know:
I
live
on
the
North
side.
I
live
in
between
two
stadiums:
cars
park
in
front
of
my
house.
All
the
time
do
I
like
it.
No.
A
L
A
L
Like
it,
no,
however,
does
it
have
has
to
take
place?
Yes,
but
how
are
we,
as
an
authority
approaching
it
in
a
way
that
we're
looking
at
the
issue
holistic
like,
for
example,
I
started
off
talking
about
living
down
the
street
from
two
stadiums?
Is
there
permit
parking
on
the
streets
for
those
residents?
Is
there
ways
that
we
can
can
protect
our
communities
for
people
coming
in
for
big
concerts
and
leaving
debris
all
over
the
place
or
the
homeless
sleeping
in
garages?
L
So
when
I
set
an
authority,
those
are
some
of
the
the
people
issues
or
some
of
the
issues
when
I
say
I'm
a
public
servant
by
heart?
That's
what
I
mean
you
know
communities.
What
is,
how
are
we
approaching
some
of
our
major
issues
and
still
addressing
our
community
needs
people
that
live
here
and
make
this
city
what
it
is?
L
That's
been
long-time
residents
and
are
their
voices
being
heard
and
I
would
like
to
think
so
when
I
get
to
the
table
to
say
yes,
you're
voiced
in
my
communities
are
being
heard
because
I'm
bringing
up
your
issues
to
the
front.
Fourth,
so
now
that
I'm
appointed
on
this
board,
you
know
we
build
a
lot
of
garages
as
well
or
some
of
the
some
some
of
those
dollars
going
to
the
smaller
businesses
we
partnering
with,
with
and
and
and
creating
small
business
opportunities.
L
How
are
we
getting
those
that
word
out?
What
is
our
threshold
on
on
on
some
of
the
diversity
that
we
bring
to
the
table
as
well?
So
I,
don't
have
I,
don't
know
a
lot
about
the
parking
authority,
but
I
have
been
spending
time
and
Gathering
a
lot
of
information
and
and
thinking
through.
Some
of
the
questions
that
you
probably
asked
me
that
I'm
not
an
expert
on
today
is
parking
but
I
I
hope
I
can
get
to.
M
Because
so
that's
why
I
was
I
was
just
going
to
direct
the
question
towards
the
the
current
experience
that
you
have
and,
and
you
know
being
on
the
the
PRT
board.
You
know
what
what
you
know,
what
have
you
learned
there
that
you
know
you're
excited
to
to
see
if
it's
either
taking
place
here
on
this
board?
L
L
Thinking
outside
the
box
approach
during
the
pandemic,
we
didn't
shut
down,
PRT
still
operated,
we're
we're
very
proud
of
that
around
the
clock.
We
were
able
to
keep
those
buses
running
and,
and
that
took
a
lot
of
effort
and
and
teamwork
from
the
employees
and
and
I
always
one
of
the
things
that
I
think
is
very
important.
You
have
to
recognize
your
staff
constantly
because
there
are
heroes,
they're
on
the
front
line,
and
that's
one
of
that's
one
of
the
things
that
we
tend
to
do
over
at
the
program.
L
We
do
a
lot
of
recognition
of
the
hard
work
that
the
front
liners
do
as
far
as
the
pandemic.
It
hit
it
hit
hard
and-
and
everything
is
slowly
coming
back.
Will
it
come
back
the
way
it
used
to
be
I,
don't
believe
so,
but
the
parking
authority
also
have
been
affected
by
the
pandemic
and
and
as
we
talk
about
revenues
and
people
lead
deciding
to
work
from
home
and
and
and
take
on
a
different
occupation,
rather
it's
entrepreneurship
and
and
go
somewhere
else
and
not
come
downtown.
L
Those
are
all
uphill
battles
and
they
give
some
some
thought,
but
again,
I'll
always
go
back
to
it's
a
matter
of
being
open
and
creative
and
thinking
outside
of
the
box.
If
we
continue
to
do
business
as
usual,
that's
what
we
get
business
as
usual.
So
again,
you
know
I'm
I'm
in
it,
for
the
ride
and
and
to
bring
to
what
I
can
to
the
table
and
what
that
outside
the
box
started.
Thought
is,
I
have
no
problem
with
speaking
up
and
I.
Don't
bite
my
tongue.
M
A
M
We
we
had
the
and
unfortunately
when
the
pandemic
happened,
there
was
not
a
layoff,
but
there
was
a
I.
Don't
know
what
the
correct
term
would
be,
but
a
lot
of
the
security
guards.
There
wasn't
work,
so
they
they
did
leave
for
a
certain
amount
of
time.
But
it
was
the
board
that
that
brought
him
back
and.
A
M
A
M
Quite
frankly,
these
are
good
union
jobs
and
they
provide
security
to
the
people
who
Park
in
our
parking
garages-
and
you
know,
I
just
think
it's
it's
critical-
that
we
continue
to
support
these
workers
in
that
in
that
way,
and,
additionally,
the
the
enforcement
officers
that
go
out
every
day
and
do
the
work
where
people
I
mean.
Could
you
imagine
like
giving
a
ticket
to
someone
as
you're?
You
know,
that's
your
fate.
They
walk
out
of
the
restaurant
and
you're,
giving
them
a
ticket.
There's
that
interaction
right.
L
M
A
you
know
a
livable
wage
and
something
that
you
know
would
bring
people
to
that
job
in
the
future.
People
that
we
still
struggle
to
to
you
know
you
know
to
increase
the
amount
of
parking
enforcement
officers
that
are
employed.
So
that's
something
that
you'll
see
is
that
yeah
I
mean
there
are
other
jobs
out
there.
Other
opportunities
where
you
don't
have
to
have
those
interactions
with
someone
when
you're
putting
a
ticket
in
their
car.
You.
A
A
M
K
K
G
It
really
is
a
struggle
for
Workforce
these
days
and
I
too
am
I.
Think
there's
more
I
have
had
thoughts
about.
How
can
we
really
help
our
our
employees
just
achieve
what
they
are
trying
to
achieve
right
and
it's
part
of
us
all
kind
of
you
know
investing
in
in
the
people
and
the
residents
and
as
well
as
and
the
workers
are
our
residents
in
the
city.
G
Similarly,
our
business
models
are
changing
for
a
lot
of
City
departments
and
and,
as
you
alluded
to
a
little
bit
in
your
comments,
that
especially,
is
true
of
parking,
because
you
know
our
goal
at
this
table
is
just
to
as
a
city.
I
think
cities
exist
to
help
the
peoples
and
goods
and
services
find
each
other.
A
G
The
Strip
District
is
robotics,
robot
Lawrenceville
as
well,
and
so
there
are
people
going
to
daytime
jobs
there
that
in
from
around
the
region
and
gets
Port,
Authority
mostly
goes
downtown,
and
so
you
now
you
have
cars
going
someplace
where
they
weren't
going
before.
But
really
we
should
be
I,
think
working
from
the
city
side
and
from
our
various
other
authorities
and
entities,
whether
it's
getting
water
there
or
whether
it's
getting
investment
dollars,
are
from
the
Ura
and
also
kind
of
getting
our
people
to
the
places
they
go.
G
That
means
a
changing
role
for
the
parking
authority,
because
you
know
the
constituents
I
represent.
Don't
all
want
to
have
to
move
their
car
if
they
have
one
and
I
still
have
a
significant
percentage
of
people
who
don't
have
a
car
and
still
need
to
get
to
their
destinations,
and
we
know
that
Citywide.
That
is
very
true
of.
G
That
they,
we
need
to
help
them
get
places,
and
so
what
does
that
mean?
This
is
just
like
kind
of
a
big
question
that
I
don't
expect
you
to
have
a
fully
thought
out
answer
to,
because
I
don't
think
we
unders
have
consensus
and
thoughts
as
a
public
of
like.
So
what
does
that
mean?
But
we
do
have
assets
in
a
parking
authority
right,
and
so
you
own
properties
in
various
places.
E
G
An
employee
not
as
a
board
member,
yes
and
so
an
employee,
and
it's
a
very
wide
open
question,
but
if
you've
got
any
thoughts
here,
so
the
way
I've
said
it
before
is
that
even
like
people's
not
just
journey
to
work
but
like
Journey
to
the
doctor
or
journey
to
school
in
my
district
has
changed.
There
are
schools
where
there
were
not
schools
for
30
years.
G
A
G
Those
blocks
and
then,
as
certainly
bigger
employers
destinations
too,
so
it's
kind
of
just
like
now.
It's
grown
wide,
open
right
and
so
in
the
in
our
role
of
kind
of
making
sure
people
can
get
to
where
they
need
to
go
so
they
can
have
it
not
just
have
work,
but
also
get
the
things
that
they
need
on
a
daily
basis.
We
have
some
Powers
as
a
city,
but
we're
going
to
need
our
authorities
kind
of
to
get
in
line
with
us
if
we're
going
to
make
people's
daily
lives
easier.
Let.
I
A
G
L
Communications
is
key:
I
think
that
the
authorities
need
to
constantly
or
come
up
with
some
kind
of
communication
plan
that
we
can
understand
ourselves,
because
I
believe
that
everyone
is
moving
in
a
direction
to
to
to
to
to
meet
the
goal
of
of
of
our
city
and
our
city,
our
communities.
But
when
we're
working
in
our
own
side
loads
and
not
talking
to
one
another,
we're
we're
all.
L
F
I'm
thinking
about
President,
thank
you
for
your
willingness
to
serve
I
appreciate
it,
and
I
was
thinking
of
some
of
the
bigger
picture
issues
as
well,
but
I'll
limit
it
to
this
that
you
know
in
some
of
our
communities
in
Pittsburgh.
We
know
that
we
are
trying
to
distance
and
devise
car
use
and
parking,
because
they're
more
they're
urbanizing
more
quickly,
re-urbanizing
more
quickly
than
others.
F
O
A
A
F
A
O
So
most
of
the
council,
members
I,
was
listening
out
back
kind
of
covered
every
or
anything
I
had
to
add,
but
I
just
wanted
to
tell
you
have
my
full
support,
I've
known
you
for
some
time
now
and
you're
a
big
asset
to
whatever
you
apply
yourself
to
and
I
know
that
about
you.
So
so
welcome
aboard
well,
not
quite
yet
I
guess
but
you'll
have
my
support
and
again
I
look
forward
to
working
with
you
and
I
guess:
councilman
Wilson's
on
the
parking
authority
as
well
and
I
did
have
a
message
from
councilman.
O
B
Thank
you
and
I
will
just
add.
The
councilman
County
councilman
Bob
palmasina
is
out
sick,
but
we
gave
him
a
professional
courtesy
and
did
not
hold
an
interview
because
we
usually
don't
interview
electeds,
oh
I,
see
so
that's
why
he
was
never
scheduled
for
the
interview.
So
there's
no
miscommunication.
He.
B
L
L
Have
no
questions
now
remain
in
the
in
the
posture
of
of
learning
more
before
I
put
myself
too
far
out
there
and
say
something
that
I
don't
know
a
whole
lot
about
just
yet,
but
I'm
amongst
the
best
and
I
have
a
lot
of
confidence
in
receiving
and
the
information
that
I'll
need
to
to
to
to
to
expand
upon
and
I'm
very
confident
about
being
a
part
of
a
great
team,
great
staff
as
well.
So.
B
I'm
going
to
just
really
say
that
I
really
want
you
to
be
a
strong
voice
and
to
pay
attention
to
what's
going
on
as
as
I
councilman
Wilson
knows,
I
feel
really
strongly
about
this
board,
because
it's
tied
into
our
pension
and
to
all
the
employees
are
really
looking
for
you
and
the
board
to
have
strong
leadership
roles
and
to
be
able
to
step
aside
and
do
what's
right.
Whether
there
may
be
somebody
who
may
want
to
push
you
to
do
something
different.
B
You
have
to
be
at
that
strong
voice
and
I'm
certain
you
will
be,
but
to
be
that
strong
voice
to
make
sure
whatever
you're
doing
is
right
for
not
only
the
employees
of
the
parking
authority
not
only
for
the
residents
and
the
people
that
utilize
the
parking
facilities
and
the
meters,
but
for
our
employees
overall
in
the
city
of
Pittsburgh
that
depend
on
this
to
be
to
help
stabilize
our
our
pensions.
So
for
me
it's
it's.
L
B
Mean
it's
a
very
serious
position
as
far
as
I'm
concerned,
it's
one
of
the
most
because
there
are
so
many
people,
relying
on
all
of
you
to
make
some
right
decisions
there
and
to
be
independent
and
to
be
say
what
you
have
to
say.
I
remember
one
time
when
I
was
on
the
board
of
alka
sand
and
everybody
received
a
letter
saying
you
know
to
resign
from
alcasin,
they
would
just
keep
it
on
file.
Just
okay
and
and
I
said
no
matter
of
fact.
B
I
made
such
a
big
deal
about
it,
hit
the
papers
on.
If
you
remember,
and
then
they
went
through
the
requester,
because
I
said,
my
biggest
concern
was
when
I
served
on
a
board
I'm
not
serving
for
the
person
who
appointed
me
I'm
serving
for
all
the
people
that
that
this
board
serves
and
that
all
the
rate
payers,
all
the
whatever
it
is
that
you're
serving
so
I
just
want
to
always
make
sure
I
said:
My.
Independence
means
everything
to.

You
know
kind
of
email
and
our
Pittsburgh
Public
Schools
elsewhere
to
and
bring
that
to
Bear
to
what
we
can
do
or
how
we
can
scale
up
our
own
programs
to
the
city.
You
know
I
would
love
to
see
us
do
things
like
set
our
lead
by
example,
by
minimizing
our
own
single-use
plastic
usage
at
City,
sponsored
events
or
city
health
events.
F
Those
types
of
things
I
really
think,
there's
a
lot
of
work.
We
can
do
to
set
the
example
for
other
entities
as
well,
so
I
welcome
your
participation,
I,
welcome
your
ideas
and
your
background
and
energy,
and
please
just
know
that
you
have
my
support
with
the
work
that
you
do
and
if
there's
anything
along
those
lines
that
you'd
like
to
add.
J
What
I'm
impressed
by
is
the
representation
on
the
committee
and
that
there's
so
much
representation
from
the
city
agencies
and
also
the
non-profit
partners
and
Community
organizations,
and
so
I
think
it's
the
perfect
place
to
really
dive
into
some
of
these
issues
and
Tackle
them
not
just
what
we're
seeing,
which
is
obviously
litter
and
and
graffiti,
but
also
address,
addressing
the
root
causes
of
it
and
I.
Think
that
the
commission
has
approached
it
in
two
ways
and
one
is
let's
bring
in
Innovative
approaches
and
try
new
things
and
pilot
those
things.
J
One
of
the
examples
was
the
cigarette
ballot
boxes
that
are
ones
outside
of
the
city
council
city,
county
building,
but
also
just
looking
at
kind
of
the
basic
things
that
need
to
happen
in
order
to
address
these
problems
and
kind
of
really
not
forgetting
those
Basics
that
are
going
to
make
a
big
difference,
and
so
I
think
that
the
two-prong
approach
is
really
a
good
way
to
to
do.
It
and
I'm
excited
to
be
part
of
that
and
lend
my
support
to
the
work
that's
been
going
on
in
the
commission.
M
J
Just
like
I'm
just
curious
what
we
were
talking
about
it's
one
of
the
root
causes
is
garbage
cans
and
that
they
just
don't
have
lids
and
that's
a
big
problem
with
the
litter
is
that
garbage
cans
get
blown
over.
We
have
very
windy
days,
and
so
garbage
is
getting
strewn
everywhere.
It's
not
necessarily
that
someone's
actively
deciding
I'm
going
to
litter
and
throw
something
out
of
their
garage
or
their
car
door.
So
how
do
we
approach
getting
people
Lids?
Are
we
educating
people
about
the
importance
of
that?
The
city?
Is
the
the
blue?
M
M
J
M
M
J
K
M
H
So
I
can
add
my
background
as
an
educator
and
I
work
in
higher
ed,
so
I
think
there's
an
opportunity.
I'm
excited
to
learn
about
all
of
the
organizations
that
are
currently
participating
and
helping
and
finding
ways
to
connect
with
the
Campus
Community
as
well,
and
then
it's
great
to
look
for
innovative
ways
to
prevent
The
Accidental.
But
then
how
can
we
teach
people
to
be
stewards
and
think
sort
want
to
sort
want
to
take?
The
time
want
to
worry
about
it
really
Inspire
that
behavior
change
and
then
look
for
Alternatives.
J
N
Example,
I
use
paper,
straws
or
wooden
spoons
and
forks
for
you
know,
and
fast
fast
food,
restaurants
in
that
area
and
kind
of
relate
to
your
experience
with
the
blue,
bins,
I
think
before
you
know
the
day
after
that,
it's
been
picked
up,
you
can
see
some
of
the
wind
blown
recyclables,
that's
something
around
the
streets
and
one
of
the
things
that
we
can
look
into
is
possibly
get
the
bins
with
lids
attached
to
it.
You
know,
hopefully
that
will
prevent
some
of
the
wind
blow
recyclables.
B
B
You
were
the
first
one
to
do
something.
It
started:
I'm,
not
surprised.
It
started
as
a
pilot
program
in
Sheridan
and
then
we
with
a
kid
named
Logan
and
it
was
we
had
Logan's
litter
clean
up
and
it's
then
it's
expanded
too,
and
a
full-blown
city,
anti-litter
campaign
and
honestly
I
think
that
when
it
started
there
was
such
excitement
we're
going
to
do
something
about
the
literature
we're
going
to
do
something.
B
B
As
one
person
you
know,
cleaning
up
the
litter
all
across
the
city
of
Pittsburgh
is
one
person
and
I
think
that
the
absence
of
cameras
and
other
things
we
don't
we're
not
really
good
at
pursuing
illegal
numbers
in
the
city
of
Pittsburgh
or
not,
but
one
of
the
things
that
I
just
said
to
oh
I'm,
sorry
did
councilman
strasberger
go
okay,
I
couldn't
remember.
Okay,
thank
you.
I!
B
But
the
reality
is
our
crews
could
only
pick
up
40
pounds
and
sometimes
they'll
toss
something
in
and
it's
not
secured
right
and
before
you
know,
there's
a
trail
of
trash
and
I
said
when
I
my
mother
lives
in
Scott
Township.
Now
she
used
to
live
on
Fifth
Avenue
when
I
go
up
to
Scott
Township,
now,
I
notice,
this
huge
difference
in
their
trash
collection
day
is:
they
have
trash
cans.
All
look
uniforms
and
cleans
I
mean
the
trash,
looks
clean.
B
It's
all
uniform
and
straight
going
down
this
down
the
street
and
then
the
next
day
you
didn't
even
know
there
was
a
trash.
You
know
collection
because
there's
not
one
scrap
on
the
street,
nothing
and
when
you
have
in
the
city
of
Pittsburgh
you'll,
see
all
the
trash
Left
Behind,
either
in
an
Alleyway
on
the
street.
Things
are
blown
around
and
to
the
credit
of
our
crews.
They
try
to
do
the
best
they
can
to
clean
up,
and
then
they
do
send
somebody
behind
to
to
clean
up.
But
there
it's
just
a
long
process.
B
A
long
problem
and
I
really
would
like
for
us
to
think
outside
the
box
and
how
we
can
get
some
of
those.
The
trash
cleaned
up
after
collection
takes
place
because
it
is
an
issue
and
across
the
city
of
Pittsburgh,
and
it's
not
something
that
one
person
can
handle
or
even
two
people
can
handle
or
even
a
foreman
going
by
they
used
to
have
hooky
men.
B
They
used
to
call
them
hokey
men
they
used
to
pick
up
trash
on
the
streets
and
I
think
they
still
have
some
of
that
in
the
south
side,
with
some
of
the
funding
that
they
use
from
parking
authority.
So
I
would
like
to
see
something
like
that.
City-Wide
is
what
I'm
trying
to
say
some
way
that
we're
putting
some
effort
forward.
B
So
could
you
tell
me
what
your
thoughts
about
are
about
that
and
and
what
you
think
you'll
be
able
to
bring
to
the
table
and
and
different
to
the
table,
because
that's
what
I'm
looking
for
at
this
point,
because
I
think
I've
done
everything
I
can
to
try
to
remove
trash
off
the
streets,
including
participate
in
the
cleanups
so
and
organize
my
own
cleanups
and
our
our
crews
at
DPW.
They
have
cleaned
up.
Hundreds
of
tons
of
debris
from
neighborhoods
across
the
city
of
Pittsburgh
I
mean
several
neighborhoods
several
times
a
year.
B
I
came
into
in
one
of
my
neighborhoods.
They
do
it
probably
twice
a
year
and
they
remove
hundreds
of
tons
of
debris
every
time
they
do
it,
but
yet
they're
still,
and
we
and
I
also
also
started
the
hard
to
recycle
material
program,
because
I
thought
okay.
Well,
because
we're
always
picking
TVs
up
off
the
hillside,
I
thought
we
have
to
have
some
kind
of
program,
but
I'm
still
seeing
TVs
on
the
hillside.
B
So
tell
me
what
you
think
your
Solutions
are
to
the
trash
in
the
city
of
Pittsburgh
and
how
we
can
remove
it
and
I.
Don't
want
to,
you
know,
put
you
on
the
spot.
If
you
don't
know
something
I'll
just
say
that
you'd
like
to
look
into
something
or
you
just
like
to
learn
more
I
mean
it's
okay,
because
I
know
you're
not
there
yet.
But
if
you
have
some
ideas
that
you
want
to
bring
to
table
I'd
like
to
I
love
to
hear
them,
did
he
want
to
take.
H
H
So
what
I
think
is
great
is
the
the
uniform,
recycle
bins
that
have
been
put
out,
and
so
everybody
has
a
bin,
and
there
is
that
uniformity
in
that
capacity
on
my
street
many
of
the
residents
don't
use
a
a
trash
bin.
It's
just
bags
out,
so
you
know
potentially
supporting
that
infrastructure
to
get
people
bins.
The
uniformity
of
bins
would
then
help
reduce,
keep
that
weight
uniform
and
then
the
containment
would
be
uniform.
There.
B
K
B
J
J
In
the
meantime,
while
we
kind
of
figure
out
these
long-term
Solutions,
so
we
have
a
litter
kit
program
where
people
can
get
free,
litter
kits
that
have
gloves
and
litter,
Grabbers
and
buckets
and
they
can
adopt
for
for
cleanways
greats.
We
can,
you
can
adopt
streets,
you
can
drop
parts
of
of
the
trail
system
and
you
can
and
we'll
keep
supplying
buying
you.
J
You
know
the
materials
that
you
need
in
order
to
to
take
ownership
of
those
spaces
and
clear
them
of
litter
and
I
think
that
it
also
changes
the
minds
of
the
people
who
are
even
just
watching
you
do
it,
because
people
will
I
do
it
frequently
in
my
own
neighborhood
and
people
come
up.
Oh
that's
so,
nice
of
you.
Why
are
you
doing
that?
Oh
I
just
live
down
the
street
and
I
noticed.
B
And
if
you're
gonna
ask
something
else,
I
just
want
I
want
to
also
tell
you
that
the
Explorers
Club
does
a
cleanup
on
the
hillside
of
Mount
Washington
and
that's
coming
up.
If
you
want
to
join
us
for
that,
that's
coming
up
on
April
1st,
it's
my
favorite
day
of
the
year,
April
Fool's
Day,
but
anyway
so,
but
it
really
is
taking
place
that
day.
But
if
you
want
to
join
us
for
that,
but
I
I
really
think
that,
for
me,
it's
an
issue
that
I
want
to
help.
B
B
You
know
they're,
not
they're,
not
thinking
about
anything
other
than
you
know,
you're,
throwing
the
wrap
around
getting
rid
of
the
rapper,
not
thinking
about
where
it's
going
or
what
it's
going
to
do
to
the
environment.
So
it
would
be
great
to
do
the
educational
component
as
well.
So
is
there
anything
else?
Any
of
you
would
like
to
add
before
we
wrap
up.
I
could
go
on
with
this
subject
forever.
B
It's
like
it's
like
a
sickness,
okay,
so
I
just
want
to
say
I'll,
let
it
go
so,
but
I
will
say
that
you
will
be
put
your
appointments.
Your
confirmations
will
be
put
on
on
Tuesday
for
final
approval.
Okay,
thank
you
all
for
your
willingness
to
serve.
Thank
you.
Is
it
going
to
be
the
most
difficult
part
of
serving
as
coming
before,
City
Council
on
live,
TV
and
being
interviewed.
So
thank
you.
We
appreciate
everyone
who
came
today.
Thank
you.
