Description
Athens City Council - February 28, 2022
A
And
tonight
we
are
having
a
special
session
where
we
will
be
reading
ordinances
for
third
reading,
also
some
ordinances
for
second
reading
and
then
we'll
be
moving
on
into
our
committee
meetings.
Tonight
we
have
four
committees
with
business,
so
our
first
item
of
business
is
to
establish
a
quorum,
and
all
members
of
council
are
present
we'll
now
move
into
ordinances
for
third
reading
ordinance.
1022
is
an
ordinance
granting
a
special
right-of-way
use
permit
to
good
works,
inc
owner
at
100
central
avenue
to
construct
an
accessible
parking
space
introduced
by
council
member
grace.
B
A
C
A
D
Second,
thank
you,
member
eisner,
as
discussed
at
committee
and
first
reading.
D
So
this
is
the
type
of
initiative
that
the
northeast
ohio,
public
energy
council
hopes
that
these
community
grants
can
be
used
for,
and
I
I
hope
that
people
support
this
ordinance.
Thank
you.
We
have.
A
E
A
D
Thank
you.
The
there
are
a
number
of
items
items
on
this
appropriation,
ordinance,
one
of
them
being
35
000
to
the
general
fund
police
for
an
apd
server
replacement.
D
Our
chief
of
police
has
done
his
due
diligence
to
look
into
the
matter
of
the
server
more
carefully
and,
in
particular
with
bssi
the
organization
that
we
are
planning
to
move
our
I.t
operations
to
and
on
the
advice
and
consultation
with
bssi.
They
found
some
pieces
which
would
increase
this
cost
by
ten
thousand
dollars.
So
I
would
I'm
making
a
motion
to
amend
from
thirty
five
thousand
dollars
to
forty
five
thousand
dollars
for
this
line.
Item.
A
G
Are
two
elements
of
it?
One
is
a
virtualization
of
a
couple
of
the
servers
so,
rather
than
be
physical
boxes,
it'll
be
virtual
virtual
service
internal
to
the
thing
and
then
the
second
is
business
class,
backup
versus
kind
of
just
your
your
your
standard
grade,
backup.
A
F
A
D
Thank
you,
president
nisely.
As
discussed,
there
were
a
few
adjustments
to
the
staffing
ordinance,
mostly
switching
of
titles
and
a
few
percentages
of
where
salaries
come
from
for
the
arts,
parts
and
recreation,
department,
engineering
and
public
works
and
the
code
office.
These
are
administrative
positions,
I'd
like
to
make
a
motion
to
approve
0-21-22.
Second,.
H
how
this
relates
to
the
ordinance
before
us
today,
I'm
beginning
to
wonder
if
the
11
that
we
are
going
to
offer
lifeguards
at
our
pool
might
potentially
put
us
into
a
pickle,
hopefully
not
as
severe
but
severe
like
we
had
last
year.
In
other
words,
I'm
a
15,
16
17
18
year
old
kid
and
I'm
looking
for
a
summer
job.
H
H
A
I
think
to
answer
your
ques
to
begin
to
answer
your
question.
Thank
you,
councilmember
swank.
It
would
be
an
administrative
decision
as
they
create
the
budget
for
the
different
departments
and
if
they
we
would
have
a
recommendation
from
them
that
they
think
that
this
is
a
necessary
thing
to
do.
Then
that
would
come
forward
through
the
finance
committee,
which
would
then
be
possibly
then
a
subsequent
amendment
to
the
staffing
ordinance
to
change
the
hourly,
the
hourly
rate,
sound,
reasonable.
I
Reasonable,
okay,
we
have
explored
those
rates
and
I
know
there
was
a
recent
change
or
we
increased
a
lot
of
them.
Cashier
had
lifeguard.
Lifeguards
was
recently
changed
and
I
think
you
know
quite
honestly,
yeah
right
right
now
we're
looking
at
11.
As
you
just
indicated.
I
You
know
it's
two
dollars
and
fifty
cents
above
where
it
was,
and
I
look
at
the
the
type
of
individuals
who
will
typically
fill
these
like
we
just
recently,
two
years
ago,
three
years
ago
we
lowered
it
to
age
16,
which
we
had
not
done
before
either.
I
think
that,
given
the
the
nature
of
that
particular
position,
we
will
see
a
number
of
people
who
want
to
work
during
the
summer
because
they're
just
working
those
three
months
as
lifeguards.
I
You
know-
and
you
know
we're
talking
about
a
very
specific
skill
set
for
a
lifeguard
at
the
pool,
and
so
you
know
I.
I
don't
think
that
we're
going
to
struggle
trying
to
fill
the
positions
and
this
year
we're
certainly
going
to
over
hire
into
that
those
positions,
because
they're
enlarged
part
of
the
problem
that
we
experienced
last
summer
so.
H
H
You
can't
hire
a
lifeguard
right
off
the
street
because
the
training
is
starting
the
monday
after
spring
break
for
the
first,
the
first
class
for
those
who
want
to
get
their
lifeguard
certification
anyway,
again.
J
H
I'm
wrong,
but
it
just
kind
of
as
I
drove
into
town
and
saw
these
signs,
I'm
thinking
back
to
1.50
when
you
and
I
probably
got
our
first
summer
job.
That
seems
like
an
awful
lot
of
money,
but
there
is
a
disparity
there
so
again
hope
I'm
wrong,
but
some
I
think
we
need
to
pay
particular
attention
to.
I
I
do
just
have
a
quick
comment
and
I
appreciate
the
council
is
taking
this
up,
because
I
think
another
important
new
position
that
is
in
here
is
the
dei
coordinator
for
the
city
of
athens,
which
is
vitally
important
as
we
continue
our
journey
on
diversity
and
equity
here
in
the
city
of
athens.
Okay,.
A
F
Thank
you,
madam
president.
This
ordinance
and
the
two
that
will
follow
it
are
all
related
having
to
do
with
our
various
street
activities
during
the
during
the
year.
Let
me
read
section
one
of
2222.
The
city
service,
safe
director,
is
hereby
authorized
to
close
streets
in
the
uptown

year
to
change,

and
maintain
cross

F
For
the
following
events,
then
there's
a
list
of
some
13
different
events
throughout
the
year.
It's
all
on
your
disk
drive.

yourself
and

A
C
A
Opposed,
nay,
the
motion
carries
and
the
ordinance
is
approved

athens
city
code,
title
13,

offenses,
chapter
13.04,
offenses
against
public
peace,
section
13.04.10,
unnecessary
noise
in
a
designated
area
introduced
by
councilmember
reisner.
Thank.
F
The
council
president
has
already
read
the
title,
which
is
pretty
much
all
of
section:
one
no
use
repeating
it.
The
following
events
include
the
athens,
brick
criterium,
athens,
county
convention
and
visitors,
bureau,
ohio
brew
week;
first
call
ohio
brew
week
last:
call
athens,
arts,
music,
festival
and
halloween
weekend.
F
F
B
F
I'll
read
the
pertinent
section:
the
enforcement
of
athens
city
code,
chapter
11.04,
vending
peddling
and
soliciting
is
hereby
suspended
from
8
am
to
11
pm
to
allow
vending
in
the
designated
street
closure
areas
at
such
time
in
areas
determined
appropriate
by
the
administration
for
the
following
events.
And
again
there
is
a
list
of
events
section
2
prospective
vendors
shall
register
their
name
address
and
items

be
vended
with
the
code
enforcement
office
by
2
pm
on
or
before
2
business
days
prior
to
the
listed
events
and
so
on
and
so
forth.
A
Okay,
so
we
have
a
motion
and
second
for
approval
of
2422
comments
or
questions
from
council
members,
administration,
elected
officials
or
our
audience,
if
not
all
those
in
favor
signify.
By
saying
I
I
oppose
nay,
the
motion
carries
and
the
ordinance
is
approved
and
the
last
of
our
third
readings
is
ordinance.
2522,
an
ordinance
amending
athens
city
code,
title
iii,
administrative
provisions,
unlawful
discriminatory
practices
and
is
introduced
by
council
member
kerry.
K
Thank
you
president
nicely.
I
would
like
to
make
a
motion
to
adopt
ordinance
25
22..
Second,
thank
you.
This
is
an
ordinance
that
has
been
discussed
in
committee
that
we're
on
to
its
third
reading
and
an
attempt
to
expand
our
understanding
of
the
definition
of
racial
discrimination
to
include
traits
historically
associated
with
race,
including,
but
not
limited,
to
hair,
textures
and
protective
hair
cultural
hairstyles.
K
A
B
B
At
any
time
when
guidance
from
the
centers
for
disease
control
and
prevention,
the
cdc
recommends
masking
indoors
for
athens
county.
All
individuals
within
the
city
shall
wear
a
face
covering
over
the
individual's
nose
mouth
and
chin
in
accordance
with
the
following,
and
then
it
lists.
The
public
locations
where
we
are
currently
through
today
require
masking.
B
B
B
B
B
We're
about
to
see
our
community
go
on
spring
break
and
I
believe
I
and
and
many
others
in
our
community
will
be
traveling
to
different
places
and
then
returning
to
athens
and
the
the
biggest
concern
that
I
have
personally
with
though
I,
although
I'm
the
one
introducing
the
change,
is
for
vulnerable
members
of
our
community
and
in
some
ways
I
I
believe
that
the
cdc
guidance
has
sort
of
left
them
behind
whether
it's
families
with
young
children
who
are
not
able
to
be
vaccinated.
B
Individuals
with
suppressed
immune
systems
because
of
an
illness
or
a
medical
treatment
for
another
disease.
They
continue
to
be
vulnerable,
and-
and
it
is
so-
I
introduced
this
amendment
because
it
follows
the
guidance
of
the
cdc
and
of
our
local
health
expert
from
the
health
department.
Dr
gaskell,
I
spoke
with
him
at
length
over
the
weekend
and,
as
I
think
many
members
of
council
heard
recently
are
the
one
remaining
school
district
in
athens
county
that
had
been
requiring
masking
is
going
to
mask
optional.
B
Now
they
have
said
that
if
cases
increase
again,
they
will
return
to
requiring
them,
and
I,
I
believe,
we'll
also
be
hearing
of
changing
policies
from
the
university.
B
So
that
being
said,
because
I
I
do
see
the
risk
of
a
population
leaving
and
returning
and
I
do
understand
the
risk
to
vulnerable
members
of
our
community,
I
would
certainly
understand
if,
if
my
fellow
members
of
council
do
not
agree
with
this
amendment
and
this
change,
but
I
bring
it
forward
as
because
I
I
think
that
for
me
to
follow
the
guidance
of
the
cdc
is
the
most
consistent
a
practice
for
myself.
And
so
that's
that's
why
I
introduced
this
amendment
and.
B
A
F
H
Could
we
get
a
point
of
order
yeah
we
get
this
in
writing
please.
This
is
a
rather
a
radical
change,
very
short
notice.
Some
of
us
are
more
visual
learners
than
others,
and
could
we
possibly
get
copies
of
this
to
review,
so
we
can
have
an
informed
discussion.
A
A
D
Thank
you,
president
nicely
and
thank
you,
mr
thompson.
I
agree
with
member
grace.
I
think
that,
from
the
beginning
at
least
the
cd-
I
am
not
a
scientist,
I
am
not
a
public
health
expert
and
the
cdc
is
what
I
have
relied
on
to
understand.
D
What
I
believe
are
the
proper
measures
for
this
so
to
to
not
continue
at
this
point
to
follow
the
guidance
I
think
would
be
hypocritical
and
as
backing
up
with
our
local
numbers,
the
science
is
what
we've
been
trying
to
follow
and
I
believe
the
sciences
is
in
support
of
of
this.
My
two
questions,
member
grace
for
the
suggested
amendments.
D
One
is
we
know
that
if
we
need
to
bring
this
back
that
we
will
probably
do
so
under
an
emergency
measure,
and
I
don't
know
if
we
wanted
to
incorporate
that
language
into
the
ordinance
or
I
mean
we
can
always
deal
with
it
on
an
emergency
basis
level.
You
know,
but
I
didn't
know
if
that
should
be
in
there.
My
other
question
was,
I
think,
when
and
we'll
see
when
we
get
the
the
copy.
D
I
think
it
was
either
guy
cdc
guidance
or
recommendation,
and
I
and
and
is
that
for
athens
county
was
the
language.
D
Is
that
the
most
sort
of
exact
we
can
get
to
the
actual
data
that
that
that
the
cdc
will
base
that
on
I'm
just
wanting
to
be,
I
want
to
not
leave
us
up
to
interpretation
well,
but
then
another
section,
the
cdc,
recommended
this
or
said
this,
which
does
yours
apply.
Those
are
my
two
questions.
Thank
you.
B
Okay,
so
on
the
first
one
I
I
don't
think
that
we
need
to
insert
language
regarding
emergency,
because
this
this
is
like
an
auto.
B
D
Yeah
yeah,
so
that
maybe
this
is
a
law
director
question
I
don't
know,
is
there
precedence
for
this
kind
of
ordinance
that
suddenly
something
is
in
effect?
If
I
haven't
checked
the
cdc
website
the
day
before
and
I've
not
been
reading
my
newspapers
and
two
days
later,
I'm
out
and
I
didn't
know-
I
mean
how
does
this
happen.
J
D
B
A
E
Yeah,
I
I
agree
with
what
you're
talking
about
it
was
my
position
that
I've
stated
in
past
council
meeting
that
having
a
some
kind
of
trigger
like
this,
so
we
can
follow
the
cdc
guidelines
rather
than
just
a
date,
but
it
was
my
impression
from
talking
to
the
law
director.
Perhaps
you
want
to
address
this
again
that
that
that
would
be
difficult
to
do
so.
I
want
to
really
get
a
sense
from
you
law,
director,
eliasson,
about
what
your
thoughts
are
about
this
and
any
recommendations,
as
is
appropriate.
Under
these
circumstances,.
A
I
Let
me
at
least
share
some
concern
and
I
think
everyone's
kind
of
tap
dancing
around
that
concern
with
this
piece
of
legislation.
This
amendment,
you
know,
on
friday
the
cdc
came
out
with
their
new
guidelines
for
for
their
recommendation
on
face
coverings
due
to
covet
19.
and
customer
grace.
Thank
you
for
bringing
that
up
that
they
brought
in
more
metrics.
I
You
know,
you
know
200
cases
200
per
100
000.
It
used
to
be
50
also
bringing
in
the
hospitalization.
So
it's
an
interesting
metric
and
an
interesting
way
to
do
this
and
they've
got
categorized
into
three
groupings.
High,
medium
and
low,
medium
and
low
do
not
require
cdc's
guidance.
Is
you
don't
need
to
wear
face
coverings
while
indoors
for
high
you
do?
I
On
friday
we
were
listed
as
medium
sunday.
We
were
listed
as
high
today
we're
listed
as
medium.
So
I
guess
my
question
to
council
is
from
an
administrative
standpoint.
How
do
we
turn
on
and
off
this
light
switch
to
one
day
you've
got
to
wear
a
covering
when
you
go
into
a
business
open
to
the
public
the
next
day
or
several
days?
You
don't,
I
think,
at
the
end
of
the
day-
and
I
too
have
spoken
to
doc.
I
So,
as
I'm
you
know
looking
at
at
you
know
my
three
to
four
officers
on
a
good
day
that
are
out
patrolling
and
trying
to
respond,
and
they
do
to
calls
that
come
in
about
you
know:
people
not
wearing
face
coverings
in
in
operation
x,
y
or
z.
I
Is
you
know
I
I'm
gonna
have
to
put
out
an
alert
to
them
every
day.
Saying
yep
today
is
a
today's
a
yellow
day,
so
you
don't
have
to
go
and
enforce
anything
and
then
the
next
day
we
we
go
into
high
and
we're
red.
Oh
you
got
to
go
and
start
policing
these.
You
know
the
calls
that
are
coming
in.
That's
my
opinion.
You
know
in
terms
of
the
confusion,
that's
going
to
be
created.
I
I
think
that
confusion
has
already
been
created
because
a
whole
lot
of
people,
you
know,
are
very
much
aware
of
the
cdc's
new
guidelines
and
it
happened
to
come
out
on
a
day
in
which
athens
county
was
yellow
medium
and
a
lot
of
people
are
going
yay,
no
more
masks,
and
you
know
I
get
it.
There's
a
whole
lot
of
face
covering
fatigue.
I
That's
going
on
out
there
on
the
the
other
front,
and
I
again
at
the
meeting
that
I
was
in
that
dr
gaskell
was
there
the
director
for
the
convention
and
visitors
bureau?
Was
there
already
not
conventional
visitor
bureau,
the
chamber
of
commerce
was
there,
and
certainly
I
know
that
council
has
received
a
letter
from
the
chamber
in
certainly
the
chamber,
expressing
the
people
that
are
on
the
front
lines
trying
to
uphold
a
lot
of
the
cities.
I
This
particular
piece
of
legislation
is
those
business
are
the
employees
you
know
to
council
member
swank's
point
of
income,
you
know
here's
an
individual,
making,
nine
dollars
and
80
cents
having
to
tell
people
you
got
to
put
this
on
your
face,
which
is
is
great,
but
it's
also.
I
You
know
I'll
also
share
with
council,
and
can
I
mention
this
when
this
came
up
for
first
reading,
and
that
is
that
the
city
of
athens?
We
are
the
last
standing
statutory
city
in
the
state
of
ohio
that
has
a
law
on
the
books
that
requires
face
coverings
when
entering
into
places
public
places
open
to
the
to
the
public,
and
I
applaud
counsel
for
being
so
proactive
and
and
willing
you
were
on.
You
were
on
recess.
I
If
you
remember,
I
were
able,
in
13
days
to
get
that
piece
of
legislation
through
and
have
continued
to
keep
it
in
place
in
a
way
to
protect
our
citizens,
and
so
again
I
applaud
you
but
we're
seeing
so
many
indicators
that
are
showing
a
continual
down
word
trend
in
terms
of
the
infection
rate
here
in
the
city
of
athens.
I
That
is,
you
know,
for
a
lot
of
the
east
side
of
the
city
of
athens
and
I've
shared
those
with
council,
or
at
least
I
know,
I've
shared
it
with
president
nicely
to
look
at
that
data.
And
if
you
look
at
that
data
that
data
it
too,
which
is
giving
us
a
four
to
seven
day
window,
look
ahead
of
what
we
can
be
expecting.
I
I
I,
the
last
thing
I
just
want
to
mention
is
that
I
went
back
and
looked
at
that
data
from
dr
kashigano,
and
I
know
that
there's
concern
over
upcoming
spring
break
and
and
people
returning
to
the
city
of
athens,
whether
it's
k-12
individuals
or
our
ohio
state,
ohio
university
student
body.
I
will
say
this:
I
went
back
and
carefully
looked
at
a
move
in
2021
move
in
I
looked
at
the
thanksgiving
post
thanksgiving.
I
I
looked
at
the
halloween
viral
load
sampling.
I
looked
at
move
back
in
if
you
will,
after
the
holiday
break
and
never
in
that
data,
was
there
a
you
know
two
consecutive
tenfold
increases
in
viral
load,
so
it
really
kind
of
you
know
counters
that
argument
that
you
know
that
we're
going
to
have
individuals
coming
back
from
being.
Who
knows
where
and
they're
going
to
be
spreading
virus
all
throughout
the
city.
We
just
never
saw
spikes
after
any
of
those.
So
again
just
sharing
that
data
and
counsel.
I
A
And
so
let's,
let's
continue
the
discussion
mayor
patterson.
Thank
you
for
those
comments.
What
we
have
right
now
is
a
motion
and
second
for
an
amendment.
So
if
there
are
any
other
comments
about
that
particular
amendment,
that's
what
I'd
like
to
hear
comments
on
now
and
then
we
can
return
to
the
the
other,
broader
ordinance
when
we
return
to
that
so
council
member
swank.
Do
you
have
a
comment.
H
I
talked
with
many
officials
in
the
athens
city
schools
today
and
many
students
came
to
school
without
masks
and
when
confronted
confronted
when
reminded
by
their
teachers,
they
need
a
mask.
The
the
overwhelming
majority
of
those
students
who
did
not
wear
a
mask
simply
said
my
mom
or
dad
said
I
didn't
have
to
wear
one
anymore.
H
H
Personally,
I
would
like
to
see
this
thing
play
out
a
little
longer
before
we
go
into
so
so
we're
you
know
we're
steady,
we're
in
the
middle
we're
not
on
the
edges
of
going
up
or
the
edges
of
going
down,
because
there
is
no
way
to
communicate
this
effectively
on
a
timely
manner
without
creating
total
confusion.
So
I
I
would
be
very
much
against
this
amendment
as
currently
stated.
Okay,.
A
We're
going
to
take
a
few
more
comments
here
amongst
council
members.
If
you
have
anything
to
add
about
the
amendment,
are
there
any
other
comments
or
questions
and
we
julia
and
administration
elected
officials?
No
other
comments.
Do
we
have
any
comments,
and
this
is
just
specifically
about
the
amendment?
A
L
I'll
be
super
brief.
My
name
is
jim
one
pinewood
way,
athens,
ohio
and,
first
of
all,
thanks
very
much
for
public
service.
I
know
it's
difficult
all
the
time,
but
I
wanted
to
talk
a
little
bit
about
governance
and
sort
of
where
we
are
with
this
one
of
the
issues
that
I've
seen
that
I
think
is
going
to
play
out
even
further.
If
we
don't
do
something
about
this
is
the
non-compliance
with
masks.
L
That's
more
deadly
come
along,
so
if,
if
we
keep
forcing
people
to
wear
masks
when
the
rest
of
the
world,
isn't
I
think
it's
gonna
going
to
become
very,
very
problematic
for
us
when
we
really
really
need
people
to
mask
up
and
getting
them
to
comply
with
it,
and
that's
all
I
had
again
thanks
so
much
for
your
service.
Okay,.
A
Thank
you
all
right,
so
we
have
oh
and
there's
somebody
else.
Yes
come
on
up
and
same
routine
to
give
us
your
name
and
address
and
if
you
represent
a
group
and
you'll
have
three
minutes.
C
I
live
on
20
kurt
street,
and
so
I
would
encourage
you
guys
not
to
pass
this
amendment
and
furthermore,
not
to
renew
this,
because
you
know
let
it
expire
after
today,
as
we
discussed,
this
is
going
to
create
a
lot
of
confusion.
C
The
reason
we
might
be
seeing
kids
come
into
school
without
a
mask
on
and
their
parents
might
be
telling
them
to
do.
That
is
because
the
cdc
is
telling
us
to
do
that.
We
can
all
go
to
the
cdc's
website
right
now
and
athens.
County
is
medium
as
the
mayor
mentioned
and
mask
are
not
recommended
for
everybody.
C
They
recommend
you
to
talk
to
your
health
care
provider
and
since
this
mass
mandate
was
renewed
august
17th
or
it
was
around,
then
2021
cases
only
have
risen
if
the
mass
mandate
was
making
that
much
of
a
difference,
we
wouldn't
have
seen
the
biggest
spike
athens
has
seen
in
spread,
and
we
did
so.
Furthermore,
I'd
agree
with
the
previous
speaker
that
yeah
you're
going
to
see
a
lot
less
people
want
to
keep
doing
this
when
nobody
else
has
to
do
it.
C
Our
elected
officials
in
congress
don't
have
to
do
it.
We
need
to
trust
people
to
make
their
own
decisions.
I
think
we're
at
that
point,
and
I
would
encourage
you
guys
to
let
this
mandate
expire
tonight.
Okay,
thank
you.
A
All
right,
thanks
for
the
comments,
anybody
else,
all
right.
So
the
motion
now
is
for
the
amendment,
and
that
is
for
the
language.
That
would
say
add
the
words
effective
through
december
31st
2022
at
any
time,
when
guidance
from
the
centers
for
disease
control
and
prevention
recommends
masking
indoors
for
athens
county
that
all
individuals
would
do
that.
So
all
those
in
favor
of
passing
this
amendment,
and
if
you
would
please
raise
your
hands
so
that
we
can
take
a
tally,
anybody,
okay,
so
we
have
one
in
favor
opposed
to
the
amendment.
B
A
A
You
will
have
a
quorum,
you
will
not
be
able
to
sus
well,
we
don't
need
to
suspend
because
it
would
be
third
reading.
That's
right,
however.
Next
by
next
monday
night
it
will
have
gone
out
of
effect,
and
my
only
comment
would
be.
Is
that
if
we're
talking
about
a
confusion
factor,
it
will
have
expired
for
six
days
when,
when
you
return
yeah.
H
A
C
J
It
would,
however,
it
had
already
expired.
So
can
you
vote
at
the
end
of
the
at
the
end
of
the
month
right
and.
B
B
B
That
the
reality
and-
and
I
I
understand
and
have
you
know
no
no
concerns
whatsoever
about
a
a
failure
to
pass
the
amendment,
because
I
understand
it's
very
challenging.
I
wanted
to
bring
it
forward
as
to
point
out
the
difficulty
with
the
situation
that
we
are
in
and
with
following,
like
legislating
cdc
guidance
on
something
that
is,
is
very
rapidly
changing
and.
B
B
I
cannot
recommend
that
we
do
something
other
than
that,
and
I
I
think
that
consistency,
even
if
it's
imperfect
consistency
is,
is
a
better
than
than
differing
recommendations.
So
you
okay.
So
I
am
not
making
a
motion
to
suspend,
but
I
will
leave
that
to
other.
J
That
makes
it
cleaner,
I
believe,
just
a
motion
to
table
you
can't
we
can't
if
it's
up
for
third
reading
next
week.
It's
already
expired
right,
and
you
know
even
the
title
says
an
ordinance
amending
9
11
10,
but
that's
already
expired
and
you
can't
really
amend
something.
That's
already
gone.
A
A
E
A
Then
it
effectively
postpones
its
decision,
it
just
is
out
there,
it
doesn't
have
to
be,
and
it
wouldn't
be.
You
wouldn't
bring
it
back
unless
there
was
a
reason
to,
but
there
wouldn't
be
any
reason
to
so
she's.
Just
saying
robert's
rules
of
order
wise
this
would
be
cleaner
to
table
it,
because
if
you
leave
it
and
you
have
it
returned
next
week,
it
is
a
third
reading.
H
E
H
F
A
A
All
right,
we
will
move
on
now,
thanks
everyone
for
moving
us
through
that
conundrum
2822
is
an
ordinance
authorizing
participation
in
the
ohio
department
of
transportation's
cooperative
purchasing
program
introduced
by
councilmember
reisner,
and
if
we
have
no
comments
or
questions,
we
will
move
on
and
consider
it
read
for
the
second
time
ordinance,
29
22
is
an
ordinance
authorizing
design,
services
and
construction
of
tennis
and
pickleball
courts.
This
is
project
number
350
introduced
by
council
member
mccary
and
if
no
comments,
questions
updates.
H
For
mr
stone
by
chance,
do
we
have
it's
been
ten
days
nine
days
since
the
meeting?
Can
we
have
an
update
as
to
two
things
number
one
when
we
might
see
preliminary
or
final
plans,
and,
secondly,
do
we
have
an
update
on
any
estimated
costs
for
the
project
at
this
point
in
time,
from
from
the
design
firm.
G
I
don't,
but
I
hope
to
have
that
well
in
advance
of
the
next
or
third
reading,
so
I
should
just
okay,
great
yeah.
I
should
have
the
opportunity
to
well.
I
guess
I
suppose
it
is
next
week
either.
G
A
Okay,
thanks
all
right,
if
no
other
questions
we'll
move
on
now
to
ordinance
3020..
This
is
an
ordinance
amending
athens
city
code,
title
9,
general
regulations,
chapter
9.02,
fire
prevention,
section,
9.02.01
code
adopted
introduced
by
council
member
kerry
and
if
no
questions
comments
or
updates,
we
will
move
on
to
ordinance
31-22.
A
This
is
an
ordinance
granting
a
special
use
permit
to
marietta
memorial,
healthcare,
inc,
20206
columbus
road
to
allow
parking
and
a
monument
sign
in
the
city's
right-of-way
introduced
by
council
member
grace,
and
if
no
comments
or
updates,
we
will
move
on
to
ordinance
3222.
This
is
an
ordinance
authorizing
the
mayor
to
extend
the
agreement
with
us
with
sunday
creek
horizons,
a
consulting
firm
to
continue
work
on
a
remote
work
system
for
the
city
of
athens,
introduced
by
council
member
grace.
A
Okay,
and
if
no
comments
or
questions-
and
I
know
we'll
be
having
a
presentation
in
a
few
minutes
at
our
committee
meeting-
then
we'll
then
we'll
move
that
on
with
that
ordinance,
33
22
is
an
ordinance
of
bending
athens
city
code.
Title
33,
shade
tree
commission,
section,
33.01.01,
commission
membership
introduced
by
council
member
grace.
H
H
So
what
I
did
is
I
ran
this
by
a
couple
of
high
school
english
teachers
today
and
they
said
allen.
You
need
a
modifier
in
there
and
the
suggestion
was
a
member
of
city
council
and
the
mayor
or
the
mayor's
designee,
because,
as
it
reads
now,
is
it
council's
designee
or
is
it
the
mayor's
designee
and
the
suggestion
by
the
two
english
teachers
was
without
a
meyer
fire?
There's
confusion
so,
instead
of
replace,
instead
of
saying
his
her
simply
say
or
mayor's
designee.
H
So
we
know
where
the
designation
is
coming
from
and
it's
the
mayor
of
just
to
clean
it
up
and
clarify
it
a
little
bit
and
it
does
do
what
mr
mccary
wanted
and
that
is
to-
and
I
agree,
eliminating
the
his
her
and
those
sort
of
titles
and.
H
J
I
would
agree
to
that,
okay,
so
we
don't
need
to
amend.
I.
I
think
it
was
everyone's
understanding
that
it
was
the
mayor's
designee.
So
no
okay,
I
don't
know
thank.
A
A
Second,
okay,
all
those
in
favor
of
a
our
special
session
signify
by
saying
I
oppose
nay,
we
are
adjourned
with
a
special
session
and
finally,
we
can
get
on
with
our
committee
meetings,
not
that
the
discussion
hasn't
all
been
important
until
then,
but
we're
now
moving
on
to
and
I'll
give
just
a
second.
For
I
know
some
of
the
folks
were
here
to
make
comments
about
our
mask
ordinance.
So
thank
you
very
much
for
attending
tonight
and
law
director
elias
and
thank
you
for
being
here
with
us
to
work
us
through
the
legislative.
A
Conclusion
to
that
so
right
now
we're
moving
on
to
the
committee
of
the
whole
and
the
one
item
is
the
one
ohio
memorandum
of
understanding-
and
this
is
a
request
to
for
city
council
to
consider
passing
a
resolution,
and
what
this
is
is.
This
is
the
mechanism
by
which
we
will
be
participating
in
the
regional
government,
governance
for
the
opioid
settlement,
and
we
are
one.
Our
athens
county
is
one
of
73
of
ohio's
88,
county
county
governments
who
and
who
have
chosen
to
participate
with
the
with
the
ohio
one.
A
The
one
ohio
excuse
me,
memorandum
of
understanding
and
what
this
does
is
by
passing
this
resolution.
It
says
we
will
take
part
in
this
and
this
mou,
as
it's
called
a
memorandum
of
understanding,
outlines
the
plan
for
distribution
and
allocation
of
the
opioid
settlement
money.
A
The
one
ohio
provides
a
mechanism
and
for
that
30
percent
will
be,
funding
will
be
set
aside
for
community
recovery.
A
55
of
the
settlement
will
be
for
statewide
foundation
funding
and
then
15
will
go
to
the
state
of
ohio
to
be
used
to
leverage
statewide
buying
power,
and
we
have
been
provided
with
a
copy,
a
sample
resolution
which
we
will
need
to
take
part
in
and
scott
and
ryan.
If
we
have
that
map
at
all
at
once,
we
are
part
of
what's
called
district
10,
and
that
includes
athens,
hawking
vinton,
meigs,
jackson,
gallia
and
lawrence
county.
So
that's
part
of
the
region
that
we
are
part
of
for
the
one
ohio
foundation.
I
A
comment
this
is
part
of
the
process
by
which
standing
up
a
governance
committee
under
one
ohio,
I've
spoken
to
city
manager,
scott,
frank,
the
the
cities
that
you
know
have
one
representative.
The
counties
have
represented
the
county
as
a
representative,
the
township
subject,
representative,
and
then
the
villages
put
forward.
A
representative
in
talking
with
scott
frank
I'll,
be
the
representative
from
the
cities
on
the
one
ohio
governance
committee.
I
But
this
is
just
part
of
the
process
that
we
have
to
go
through
county-wide
to
make
sure
that
we're
establishing
our
council
of
governments,
as
well
as
as
moving
forward
to
be
able
to
receive
the
city's
allocation
for
the
opiate
settlement,
and
that
could
be
if,
if
we
get
70
percent
compliance,
it
could
be
roughly
90
000.
If
it's
more
than
that,
it
would
be
100.
If
we
get
100,
it
would
be
a
little
bit
more
than
140
thousand
000.
I
The
village
managers,
slash
mayors
and
the
mayor
of
nelsonville
and
working
with
the
county
for
the
smaller
municipalities.
One
of
the
best
things
that
we
could
possibly
do
is
pool
our
resources
together,
because
each
political
subdivision
will
get
a
share
and
therefore
we
can
make
a
bigger
impact
by
by
working
together
as
opposed
to
working
in
isolation,
so
more
to
come
on
that
as
we
move
forward.
But
this
is
just
part
of
the
process
for
the
settlement.
A
B
The
time
I
was
just
looking
at
it
as
well,
thank
you,
okay,
okay,
so
before
we
get
to
mr
rises
from
sunday
creek
horizons,
we
do
have
a
couple
of
title:
49
applications
that
these
are
the
applications
that
we
frequently
consider
here
in
the
planning
and
development
committee.
B
They
are
applications
from
property
owners
for
use
of
the
public
right-of-way
for
different
purposes,
and
these
two
are
presented
together
and
need
to
be
considered
together
and
on
our
shared
drive.
We
do
have
a
letter
from
the
office
of
code
enforcement
and
signed
by
our
director
of
development
and
code
enforcement
regarding
each
of
these
and
an
accompanying
map
to
sort
of
clarify
what's
happening
and
if
our
our
wonderful
government
channel
folks
could
put
that
map
up
on
the
screen.
That
would
be
very
helpful.
B
B
Permits
to
use
a
portion
of
that
alley
that
ends
just
beyond
their
property
and,
as
is
sometimes
the
case
when
we
have
alleys
that
are
not
maintained
for
driving,
we
do
have
a
a
situation
where
there's
already
some
structures
in
this
alley,
and
so
the
property
owned
by
mr
montal.
B
E
B
G
There's
a
couple
different
ways
that
this
body
can
can
divest
of
property,
one
of
which
is
sale.
Typically
streets
are
not
sold.
Streets
are
vacated.
So
if
this
body,
the
citizens
of
athens,
were
to
own
a
parcel,
we
could
put
it
for
sale,
but
that
has
to
be
a
public
bidding
type
process.
It's
not
something
you
can
just
say
I
want
to
sell
to
that
person
or
the
citizens
want
to
sell
to
that
person
should
have
to
do
quality
process.
If
you
vacate,
ownership
goes
to
the
adjoining
property
owner.
G
So
if
it's
a
portion
of
the
you
know
a
10-foot
wide
alley,
let's
say
and
and
this
body
votes
to
vacate
that
the
city
would
retain
rights
to
keep
utilities
there,
but
the
surface
ownership
would
then
transfer
to
the
two
adjoining
property
owners
five
feet
on
either
side.
G
We,
the
citizens
of
athens,
I
say
we,
but
the
citizens
of
athens
had
to
go
back
and
buy
back
some
property
that
was
vacated,
and
so
there
was
a
kind
of
a
collective
council
decision
not
to
vacate
property
willy-nilly
and
have
a
real
good
reason.
Now,
since
then,
there
have
been
some
good
reasons
to
to
vacate
property
and
there
may
be
some
in
the
future
in
this
particular
instance.
Well,
it
isn't
an
unmaintained
public
alley,
it
is,
it
is
still
public
there
is.
G
It
is
still
open
and
maintained
to
the
south
of
this
particular
area
and
this
body
granted
a
revocable
license,
or
or
rather
a
special
use
of
the
right
way
permit
to
the
property
owner.
G
Just
to
the
north,
mr
oak
strike
that
council
member
grace
mentioned
previously
to
build
a
fence
and
then
in
the
process
of
looking
at
this
particular
situation,
you
know
we
we
deemed
probably
the
best
way
ahead
was
that
that
we
do
a
special
use
of
the
right
away
permit
to
to
allow
for
the
uses
that
mr
mantle
and
miss
myers
would
like
to
have,
or
mrs
myers
would
like
to
have,
rather
than
some
other
some
other
mechanism.
E
G
It's
a
new
structure-
I'm
sorry,
I
don't
mean
to
interrupt
so.
A
special
use
of
the
right-of-way
permit
is
is
revocable
in
any
instance.
If
the
the
public
deems
you
know,
either
this
body
by
rejecting
it
or
the
administration,
comes
back
to
this
body
and
says
hey.
We
need
to
revoke
this
special
use
of
the
right-of-way
permit,
because
there's
a
use
here
without
at
the
cost
of
the
owner,
it
can
go
away,
and
so
it's
not
a
you
know.
G
G
That's
on
that
parcel
in
the
in
the
case
of
the
property
on
the
other
side,
that
is
an
encouragement
that
already
exists
so
basically
that
property
owner
is
asking
this
body
for
permission
to
have
the
things
that
they've
already
built,
or
perhaps
a
previous
owner
has
already
built
in
the
public
right-of-way.
B
So
so
I
believe
the
the
mantles
would
like
to
ensure
that
that
they
have
access
through
the
alley
to
a
a
structure
that
is
on
the
property
and
for
permission
to
park
in
the
alley
and
the
myers
have
an
existing
structure
already
built
on
the
the
right-of-way
and
are
are
seeking
permission
to
keep
that
there.
B
D
Not
a
question
just
mr
ostrich's
name
is
misspelt.
I
don't
know
if
we
want
to
correct
that.
Thank
you.
B
The
current
permission
for
that
was
perhaps
done
in
the
name
of
the
previous
property
owner
that
it
was
not
mr
ostrich
who
put
that
there,
but
it
was
prior
to.
But
I'm.
L
B
H
The
structure
that
mr
mantle
is
planning
to
build
is
a
home,
a
rental
home
and,
if
you're
familiar
with
his
properties,
he
builds
very
good
properties
and
maintains
them
well,
he
just
wants
access
from
the
back,
in
fact,
he's
willing
to
have
to
pay
for
the
movement
of
a
utility
pole
to
help
make
this
work
as
it
is
now.
It's
just
one
of
those
things
just
kind
of
evolved
familiar
with
buckeye
lake
people
started
building
decks
out
on
the
thing
around
buckeye
lake.
Well,
over
the
years,
that's
kind
of
what's
happened
down
here.
H
B
Okay,
so
in
in
one
discussion
we
have
eliminated
two
agenda
items
and
she'll
now
move
on
to
a
presentation
on
from
sunday
creek
horizons.
Mr
rises.
M
I
will
try
and
keep
it
to
less
than
10
minutes.
In
fact,
I'm
I'm
intending
to
be
very
brief
in
my
introduction
and
my
comments
and
then
I'm
happy
to
take
questions
and
have
more
of
a
discussion
just
briefly
for
anyone
watching
at
home.
My
name
is
zach
rizes,
I'm
a
resident
on
central
avenue.
I've
lived
in
the
city
of
athens
for
almost
seven
years
now
I
work
for
a
consulting
firm,
called
sunday
creek
horizons.
M
M
To
the
point-
yes,
not
everyone,
not
everyone
said
so
once
again
with
sunday
greek
horizons.
Our
firm
is
a
consulting
firm
that
focuses
on
issue
advocacy
as
well
as
project
management,
community
and
economic
development.
M
I'd
urge
you
to
please
check
out
our
website
sundaycreekhorizons.com,
and
I
did
try
and
connect
with
at
least
some
members
of
council
in
advance
of
tonight's
meeting,
to
introduce
a
little
bit
more
about
our
firm
and
the
fact
that
we're
focused
largely
on
southeast
ohio
and
appalachian
ohio
advocacy,
please
at
any
time
I
I'd
love
to
sit
down
and
have
a
more
extensive
conversation.
M
What
I've
provided
to
council
tonight
is
a
an
overview.
It's
not
exhaustive,
but
it's
pretty
in
depth
of
much
of
the
work
that
we've
taken
on
in
the
last
six
months
on
the
inside
of
the
first
page,
you'll
see
a
table
of
contents
that
just
outlines
what's
included
in
this
report,
we
have
an
executive
summary
much
of
that
language
was
actually
pulled
from
our
initial
introduction
to
the
city
about
why
we
feel
that
this
is
a
compelling
undertaking
for
the
city
and
for
the
broader
community.
M
We
have
a
list
of
outcomes.
We
have
a
log
of
meetings
we've
undertaken
and
then
I
have
included
in
this
packet
as
well
the
original
proposal,
some
of
the
work
that
we've
been
doing
more
recently
with
representative
edwards,
to
bring
some
money
to
the
armory
project.
That's
not
city
taxpayer
dollars,
but
actually
from
the
capital
bill,
which
is
a
bill.
That's
passed
every
other
year
at
the
state
level,
representative
edwards,
for
what
it's
worth
is
very
supportive
of
this
project
and
we're
very
grateful
for
his
support.
M
I'm
happy
to
talk
some
about
that
as
well.
If
you'd
like
to
go
into
detail
about
that
aspect
of
our
work
and
then
finally,
the
the
last
section
on
here
you'll
see
blue
dot,
summary
incorporation
documents,
fiscal
sponsorship
and
fiscal
sponsorship
agreement.
M
What
those
documents
are
is
really
an
a
culmination
of
the
work
that
we
were
hired
to
do,
which
was
to
address
a
recognized
need
in
the
city,
a
need
for
co-working
space,
that
is,
a
space
for
remote
workers,
a
space
for
workers
who
possibly
live
out
in
the
county
and
need
a
place
to
access
high
quality
internet
and
also
a
space
that
will
allow
for
some
small
business
and
non-profit
incubation.
M
This
is
something
that
I
know
many
council
members
and
the
administration
is
familiar
with.
Athens
works
in
uptown
athens.
Does
this
athens
works?
Has
the
the
organizers
of
that
entity
have
expressed
that
they
are
closing
their
doors
or
very
close
to
doing
so,
and
so
that
conversation
about
remote
work
and
the
need
to
have
a
place
for
folks
to
live,
work
and
play?
M
If
I
can
borrow
from
mayor,
patterson's
phrasing,
overlapped
or
intercepted,
with
the
city's
desire
to
bring
money
and
resources
and
a
plan
for
use
to
the
athens
armory
and
again,
I
know
many
account.
Many
members
of
council
are
familiar
already
with
this
project,
but
just
to
summarize
very
briefly,
we've
arrived
through
months
of
work,
as
well
as
collaboration
with
the
voinovich
school
who
published
a
a
paper
that
council
received
a
briefing
on
about
remote
work
and
the
possibilities
for
the
region.
M
A
space
where
young
folks,
such
as
myself,
might
be
able
to
go
and
work
their
jobs
that
are
remote.
That
are,
you
know,
housed
in
washington,
dc
or
la,
and
those
are
actually
real
examples
of
friends
of
mine,
not
just
cities
that
I'm
naming
you
know
a
place
as
well,
where
there
can
be
public
and
private
events
and
finally
a
place
that
is
honoring.
M
The
the
folks
who
moved
through
that
building
in
its
long
tenure
in
in
military
service
as
a
national
home
of
the
ohio
national
guard,
and
so
we
work
very
diligently
to
ensure
that
all
of
those
aspects,
those
those
facets
that
I
just
listed,
will
be
able
to
live
together
in
the
armory
and
we're
doing
that
through
sort
of
a.
M
I
don't
want
to
call
it
complicated,
but
definitely
a
an
arrangement.
That's
been
reached
through
a
lot
of
dialogue
between
bluedot,
which
is
a
new
nonprofit
organization.
M
That's
going
to
actually
operate
the
remote
workspace,
as
well
as
the
administration,
numerous
non-profit
leaders
in
the
community
and
the
athens
county
foundation,
who
have
agreed
to
sponsor
to
the
fiscal
sponsorship
of
blue
dot.
While
that
organization
gets
its
legs
underneath
it
fundraises
and
then
ultimately
applies
for
501c3
designation
from
the
irs,
which
is
a
somewhat
lengthy
process
for
anyone,
who's
familiar
I'll
sort
of
I'll.
Stop
there
there's
a
lot
of
detail
in
this
packet,
and
I
definitely
have
lots
of
items
that
I'd
like
to
touch
on.
B
D
Thank
you,
member
grace,
thank
you,
mr
rises
for
being
here
today
and
and
for
meeting
with
me
a
couple
of
times
about
this
project,
and
I
appreciate
the
information
last
time
we
met.
You
had
not
yet
toured
the
armory
with
mr
edwards,
so
I'm
glad
to
hear
that
that
went
well.
M
Understanding
that
he's
not
been
able
to,
he
also
came
through
the
armory
and
is
also
similarly
very
supportive.
I
believe
his
words
were
something
along
the
lines
of
I've
told
you
this
multiple
times.
I
will
absolutely
support
it.
You
guys
do
the
legwork
bring
it
to
us
and
we'll
get
it
done.
Something
like
that.
I'm
paraphrasing.
B
Are
there
other
questions
from
the
committee
at
this
time?
I
also
have
had
the
opportunity
to
meet
and
discuss
this
with
mr
rises.
A
couple
of
different
times.
Are
there
questions
from
other
members
of
council?
Yes,.
H
On
the
first
page,
I
guess
it's
page
number
two:
you
talk
about
brought
this
idea
of
the
city
of
athens
in
order
to
accelerate
the
remote
work
and
outdoor
recreation
economy.
Is
that
part
of
your
couple
questions?
Is
that
part
of
your
scope
of.
M
Work,
that's
a
really
great
question.
Thank
you.
The,
and
can
you
refer
specifically
to
the
paragraph.
M
Absolutely
well,
it's
tangentially
part
of
the
scope
of
work.
So,
while
we
are
not
specifically
in
this
contract,
focusing
on
you
know
any
kind
of
outdoor
work
development,
I
would
point
to
you
know
the
outdoor
recreation
council
of
appalachia,
the
local
council
of
governments,
cog,
that's
focused
on
developing
outdoor
recreation
assets,
the
theory
and-
and
I
think
it
stands
true.
We've
pulled
from
a
couple
of
examples
of
other
communities
that
are
focused
on
this.
M
Is
that
there's
overlap
between
places
where
folks
can
work
remotely
can
also
experience
the
great
outdoors
and
can
live
affordably?
There
are
multiple
communities
in
appalachian,
ohio
that
are
building
similar
ecosystems.
So
I
guess
to
answer
your
question:
councilman
swank,
we've
in
this
executive
summary.
We've
really
wanted
to
emphasize
that
it's
all
a
symbiotic
ecosystem
and
we're
trying
to
play
our
part
helping
build
that
ecosystem
for
the
city
of
athens
and
athens
county.
Would
those.
H
Outdoor
pursuits
be
restricted
to
traditional
outdoor
pursuits,
such
as
biking,
skiing,
that
sort
of
thing,
or
would
that
also
include
things
that
council
member
crowl,
the
mayor
and
myself
are
experiencing,
and
that
is
youth
sports
where
people
are
fleeing
athens
because
we
have
to
go
to
logan
this
year
for
volleyball
or
fleeing
athens
to
to,
and
you
go
to
parkersburg.
You
know
for
soccer
a
lot
to
see
these
things
as
opposed
to
having
a
a
a
sports
hub
here.
M
Well,
well,
that's
not
specifically
part
of
the
work
that
we
do.
I
think
it's
an
incredibly
smart
strategy
for
the
city
to
to
pursue.
If,
if
there
are
funds
and
resources
available
to
build
those
kinds
of
facilities
in
in
or
around
athens,
I
would
point
to
the
bayley's
trail
system
as
a
phenomenal
example
of
a
system
that
is
being
designed
to
be
available
for
the
international
mountain
bike
association,
and
that
is
a
youth.
M
They
do
youth
events,
but
I
do
know
you
know
to
your
point
around
the
the
southeast
iowa
region
in
logan,
for
example,
there
are
all
kinds
of
sports
facilities
that
draw
lots
of
attention,
youth
or
adult
and-
and
you
know,
kudos
to
those
communities
for
having
those
facilities.
I'd
love
for
us
to
have
some
of
them
here.
Okay,
thank
you.
Yep.
N
Thank
you,
member
grace.
I
just
wanted
to
thank
mr
for
coming
down
here
and
giving
us
the
opportunity
to
chat
with
you.
N
I
feel
like
I'm
sort
of
echoing
what
other
other
council
members
have
said,
but
I
also
had
the
opportunity
to
sit
down
and
talk
with
mr
rez
about
this,
and
I
believe
mayor
patterson
said
in
a
previous
week
that
this
is
the
closest
that
we've
ever
come
to
actually
having
the
armory
turn
into
something
viable,
and
I
just
wanted
to
thank
you
and
also
everybody
at
sunday,
creek
horizons
for
putting
in
the
enormous
amount
of
work
and
time
and
research
and
writing
for
actually
making
this
happen.
So
thank
you
for
getting
us
to
this
point.
I
You
know,
I
think
that
mr
rises
is
being
modest
in
terms
of
the
engagement
you
know,
to
to
have
senator
hoagland
come
down
and
actually
tour
through
the
armory
was
really.
You
know,
quite
quite
the
feat-
and
you
know
congratulations
for
you
to
you
for
making
that
happen.
The
other
thing
that's
worth
sharing
with
council
is
that
sunny
creek
horizons
has
been
working
very
closely
with
rbc
architecture
here
in
the
city
of
athens,
because
rbc
has
so
much
history
with
that
building.
I
You
know
from
designs
of
what
was
potentially
to
be
the
southeast
ohio
history
center,
which
was
going
to
be.
You
know
located
in
the
armory
back
in
the
early
2000s
to
again
looking
at
different
options
for
for
what
the
armory
could
be
and
also
it's
zach
who's
been
working
with
schooly
caldwell,
which
is
a
you
know,
a
state
mover
and
shaker
in
the
the
architectural
design
world
and
one
that's
certainly
recognized
by
a
lot
of
the
legislative
body.
B
Thank
you
mayor,
so,
just
as
a
brief
reminder,
the
reason
that
this
is
on
our
our
committee
agenda
is
because
we
have
the
the
ordinance
that
second
read
tonight,
that
is,
to
extend
the
city's
contract
agreement
with
sunday
creek
horizons.
B
Mr
rises,
if
you
would
like
to
just
take
a
couple
minutes
very
briefly,
to
explain
to
us
what
you
want
to
do
with
that
extension.
I
think
that
might
be
the
important
thing,
and
I
unfortunately
won't
be
here
next
week
when
it's
up
for
third
read.
So
I
want
to
sort
of
highlight
the
the
reason
for
the
extension
now.
If,
if
we
have
a
few
more
moments.
M
Definitely
then,
and
thank
you
council
member
grace-
I
was
going
to
take
a
moment
to
speak
on
this.
I
was
hoping
to
so.
M
Our
the
last
six
months
of
work
have
have
really
been
focused
on
building,
in
a
sense
really
from
the
ground
up
the
entity
that
can
collaborate
with
the
city
to
do
the
management
of
the
space,
the
co-working
space
and
probably
the
event
space
as
well,
and
that
that
was
important,
because
we
discovered
very
early
on
in
our
dialogue
about
this-
that
there
wasn't
necessarily
for
what
we
were
envisioning
there
wasn't
necessarily
a
a
recipient
or
or
a
partner
entity.
M
There
are
lots
of
organizations
that
work
in
the
city
very
diligently,
who
you
know
are
allies
in
this
effort,
but
taking
on
the
operation
of
a
building
is
is
a
as
a
challenge
and
takes
work,
and
most
of
our
I
don't
want
to
generalize,
but
many
of
our
organizations
locally
and
regionally
are
taxed
they're
doing
more
than
they
have
the
resources
to
really
undertake.
So
we
started
there
now.
M
The
goal
is
clear:
the
goal
is
to
find
the
dollars
to
actually
renovate
the
space,
and
I
believe
that
within
the
next
week
or
two,
we
anticipate
having
final
renovation
cost
estimates
from
rvc
architects,
we're
anticipating
a
project
cost
of
somewhere
between
three
three
million
to
three
and
a
half
million
dollars
for
for
the
full
building
and
we'd
really
prefer
not
to
do
it
in
phases.
We
don't
want
to
do
one
floor
and
then
a
piece
here
and
a
piece
there.
M
M
The
the
state
of
ohio
is,
I
don't
wanna
well
flush
with
cash
is,
is
really
a
truth
coming
out
of
the
american
rescue
plan
act
and
those
funds
are
being
divvied
up
and
distributed
as
we
speak,
we're
talking
to
state
agencies
and
state
decision
makers
every
single
day,
as
they
are
formulating
their
plans
for
where
those
funds
should
go.
Then
there
are
additional
funding
opportunities,
the
capital
bill
state
operating
budget
next
year.
These
are
opportunities
that
are
a
little
bit.
M
You
have
to
know
how
to
access
them
in
order
to
gain
access
to
them
and
just
to
editorialize
and
go
off
my
own
script
for
a
moment.
You
know
I
would
not
have
known
how
to
do
this.
M
M
My
goal
is
to
now
over
the
next
six
months,
while
some
of
these
funding
decisions
are
being
made
to
guide
the
conversation
and
inform
the
conversation
and
socialize
the
athens
armory
project,
to
the
point
where
we
can
actually
receive
some
additional
funds
from
the
state,
I
can't
guarantee
how
that's
going
to
turn
out.
I
I
don't
know
for
sure
we
know
we
have
strong
support
from
the
legislature.
M
We
don't
know
exactly
what
all
these
funding
pots
are
going
to
look
like
and
the
funding
timelines
are
up
in
the
air.
A
lot
of
the
reason
for
that
is
that
the
legislature
is
dealing
with
their
whole
redistricting
challenge
right
now,
and
it's
put
them
on
a
bit
of
a
delay
on
making
other
decisions,
so
the
it
was
a
bit
long-winded.
I'm
sorry
for
that,
but
over
the
next
six
months
you
know
our
intention
is
to
really
elevate
this
project
and
seek
in
every
possible
source
state
and
federal
dollars.
M
That'll
help
bring
it
home
and
avoid
the
city
having
to
take
out.
You
know
a
long
alone
that
you
guys
would
have
to
deliberate.
You
know
we're
trying
to
avoid
you
having
to
do
that.
B
B
K
Thank
you,
president
nicely.
Our
city
and
safety
services
committee
has
just
two
items
on
our
agenda
today:
two
new
items,
the
first
being
the
washington
county,
jail
contract
and
its
use
by
our
city
of
athens
and
I'll
turn
to
director
stone
for
an
update
about
this.
G
Standard
agreement
that
every
couple
years,
this
body
authorizes
the
administration
to
enter
into
that
allows
us
to
utilize
the
washington
county,
jail
facilities
for
both
male
and
female
inmates.
When
there's
space,
available
and
and
and
then
subsequently
pay
washington
county
to
house
inmates.
There.
D
G
You
know
I've
heard
about
that
facility.
My
understanding
is
it's
a
it's
in
the
ohio
department
of
corrections
versus
actually
a
jail,
that's
in
the
county
system
that
we
would
typically
enter
into,
and
so
you
enter
into
the
jail
system,
and
then
you
subsequently
go
into
the
ohio
department
of
corrections.
I
don't
know
that
for
sure,
remember,
crowl,
and
I
will
research
that
and
get
back
to
you
on
that
it
is
a
problem.
G
Jail
jailbread
space
is
a
significant
problem
for
both
male
and
female
female,
particularly
in
recent
years,
and
one
of
the
challenges
associated
with
with
kobit
in
in
the
midst
of
all
the
other
challenges
with
kovid.
Is
that
the
the
you
know
the
state
system
basically
kept
certain
level
of
offenders
from
moving
from
the
jail
jail
system
into
the
state
department,
corrections
system
and
basically
said
you
keep
certain
levels
of
felons.
G
G
K
Thank
you,
council
member
grace.
B
Thank
you,
and
just
to
that
point,
yeah,
the
the
regional
jail
is,
is
frequently
full
and
I
believe
that
the
the
change
regarding
the
the
lower
felony
level
offenses
is
not
specific
to
covet
restrictions
though,
but
is
a
a
part
of
sort
of
a
an
ongoing
state
process
by
which
they
they
pass
some
of
the
cost
down
to
the
local
level.
B
By
keeping
some
of
the
incarcerated
individuals
in
a
regional
jail
rather
than
in
the
state
prison
system,
they
they
keep
the
cost
at
the
county
level.
For
that
incarceration,
and
so
I
believe,
that's
a
change
that
is
is
going
to
continue
even
without
covid
whenever
that
time
happens
to
to
come,
but
also,
I
I
think
that
it's
important
for
individuals
to
know
that
that,
when
they're,
even
if
the
jail
is
full,
when.
B
When
law
enforcement
arrests,
someone
who
is
a
danger
to
the
community,
then
phone
calls
are
often
made
to
prosecutors
and
judges,
who
then
contact
the
warden
and
they
do
find
room.
So
I
I
know
that
that
is
the
practice
in
the
case
of
offenders
of
domestic
violence,
for
instance,
where
there
is
a
particular
concern
that
a
victim
might
be
at
risk.
B
So
while
our
jail
is
consistently
quite
full
and
there
is
particularly
a
shortage
of
beds
for
women
and
mates
and
that's
the
case
in
in
many
county
jails
around
us-
it's
not
just
our
regional
jail,
but
we
we
want
to
have
these
agreements
whenever
possible,
so
that
so
that
we
can
look
to
other
options.
K
N
You
I
was
looking
over
the
the
first
page
and
I
think,
there's
a
slight
inconsistency.
N
I
And
I
really
appreciate
your
attention
to
detail.
I
just
noticed
that
myself
and
I
was
gonna
bring
that
up.
Hence
my
raising
my
hand.
We
believe
that's
83.
I
will
get
clarification
on
that
because
that
does
need
to
be
amended
in
this
contract.
Otherwise,
there's
going
to
be
a
major
discrepancy
between
68.83.
K
H
Be
very,
very
short:
back
in
the
fall.
The
seven
members
of
the
arts,
parks
and
recreation
advisory
board
did
kind
of
a
self-assessment
and
identified
the
areas
that
they
individually
felt.
They
were
strong
in
and
represented,
and
then
we
put
together
a
list
of
the
areas
that
we
were
missing
representation
and
it
was
quite
a
comprehensive
list.
H
I
can't
remember
if
that
was
in
september
or
october,
but
anyway,
the
next
month
we
met
with
the
mayor,
and
we
had
a
long
conversation
about
a
lot
of
things.
But
one
of
the
things
we
talked
about
was
casting
as
wide
as
net
is
possible
when
we
look
for
people
to
serve
on
the
apr
advisory
board.
At
the
end
of
the
day,
it
is
the
mayor's
recommendation
which
council
confirms
and
we're
trying
to
get
as
many
good
people
as
possible.
We
put
together
a
questionnaire
which
is
now
on
the
city
website.
H
The
questionnaire
was
sent
to
questionnaire
an
application.
I
should
say
the
application
was
also
sent
to
the
athens
city
schools
and
what
happened
when
tom
gibbs
got
this
he
distributed
and
within
an
hour
we
had
two
outstanding
candidates
express
interest,
but
we
had
to
tell
them
both
no
and
the
reason
we
had
to
tell
them.
Both
no
is
because
of
one
word
in
the
job
description
in
code
in
3.07.42
a
it
says.
H
Both
of
these
people
live
in
athens
county,
but
not
in
athens.
Township
one
lives
barely
over
the
line
in
canaan
township.
What
I'm
suggesting
that
this
committee
consider
is
simply
changing.
One
word:
change
from
athens
township
to
athens
county,
give
an
example:
if
someone
lives
in
the
plains,
part
of
the
plains,
they
live
in
athens
township
they
could
apply,
but
in
other
part
of
the
plains,
they
live
in
dover,
township
and
could
not.
In
fact,
if
you
know
where
big
chimney
bakery
is,
where
used
to
be
matt
rapicelli's
place,
that's
canaan
township.
H
Even
though
that
person
could
work
in
athens,
pay
athens
taxes,
they
couldn't
serve
on
the
ap
or
advisory
board.
This
is
not
being
brought
forward
to
promote
any
individual,
but
to
open
up
our
options
for
people
that
could
apply
and
that
the
board
could
consider
and
then
pass
on
to
the
mayor
for
for
his
appointment,
if
appropriate.
D
The
environment
sustainability
commission
has
a
similar
stipulation
for
membership
and
that
it's
for
the
for
city
of
athens
residents.
It
doesn't
get
into
township.
That's
interesting.
I
didn't
know
how
many
of
our
commissions
or
boards
get
into
specific
townships,
I'm
not
sure
as
a
city
entity.
If
we
want
to
say
county
for
I
mean
maybe
for
the
rec
board,
I'm
I
I'm
not
I'm
not
sure
about
that,
but
it
is
interesting.
If
there's
any
information
about
how
many
of
our
boards
or
commissions
actually
specifies
townships,
I'd,
be
interested
to
hear.
H
D
K
I
B
I
guess
I
would.
I
would
just
say
that,
while
it,
it
certainly
does
make
sense
to
extend
it
to
membership
outside
the
city,
I
would
say
that
it
should
that
should
be
kept
limited
and
not
get
to
a
position
where
it's
not
a
majority.
B
Yeah,
but
I'm
just
emphasizing,
I
think
that
it
should
remain
limited
and
not
opened
up
entirely
yeah,
just
changing.
H
A
D
Councilman
mcgraw,
oh
thank
you
mccary
just
quickly
for
everyone's
information,
I
think
you're
aware
of
this
is
that
there
are
commissions
and
boards
that
are
city
council
commissions
and
boards,
and
then
there
are
mayoral
commissions
and
boards.
I
don't
know
if
there
is
a
real
distinction
there
that
we
don't
want
to
be
consistent,
but
I
would
just
think
that
maybe
we'd
want
to
be
consistent.
D
I
I
I
agree
with
you:
councilmember
crowl,
you
know,
and
that's
that's
one
of
the
big
things
you'll
see
with
all
the
boards
and
commissions
there's
nuances
all
over
the
place.
Jpac
is
a
great
example.
You
know,
which
has
eight
individuals
who
are
from
the
university
community
individuals
from
the
city
and
in
there
one
of
those
members
can
be
a
commuter
well
defined
commuter.
For
me,
someone
who
drives
to
work
every
day
you
live
in
the
city
or
someone
who's
from
outside,
and
that
was
the
intent.
It's
someone
who
lives
outside
the
city.
I
I
would
recommend
changing
that
language.
To
you
know
two
individuals
who
do
not
live.
You
know
in
within
the
corporate
limit,
so
it's
consistent
with
yours
and
again,
at
the
end
of
the
day,
it
is
a
committee
that
I
appoint
individuals
too,
and
so
therefore
I'm
fine
with
a
change
like
this,
I
would
also
again
highly
recommend-
and
I
know
councilmember
mccarry
you've
been
leading
the
charge
on
this.
Is
I
still
highly
recommend
that
we
start
looking
at
a
lot
of
things
in
code
to
where
it's
gender
neutral?
I
I
have
to
go
back
and
look
at
this.
One
now
to
see
is
there
language
in
there?
That
is
gender
specific,
I
don't
recall,
but
we
you
know
we
should
be
looking
at
all
those
things,
so
I
think,
there's
probably
more
editing
to
that
committee
unto
itself
or
that
council
board,
but
anyway
that's
my
thoughts
on
that
is
that
you
know
again,
since
it's
a
body
that
I
constitute
with
individuals
that
are
volunteers
who
want
to
work
on
the
rec
advisory
board.
That's
fine!
I'm
good!
With
this.
I
K
Okay,
yes,
I
believe
I've
in
my
own
time
on
council
have
noticed
other
discrepancies
when
it
comes
to
commission
composition,
including
having
a
council
rep
or
not.
So
I
think
this
is
an
opportunity
for
us
all
to
think
about
those
commissions
that
we're
connected
to
and
make
recommendations
through
this
process
checking
with
council
president
to
figure
out
which
committee
might
be
the
best
to
come
through,
because
some
of
them
aren't
always
clear.
But
I
think
we
do
have
one
more
comment
or
question
terrific.
E
Say
what
you
did
I
mean
a
member
crowd,
brought
it
up
having
and
then
others
said
it
that
having
some
consistency
and
language
of
membership
and
how
that
does
seem
to
make
a
lot
of
sense
to.
C
G
I
don't
have
a
lot
of
dog
in
the
fight
on
boards
and
commissions
and
that
sort
of
thing,
however,
you
know
I
haven't
worked
for
the
city
for
a
number
of
years.
I've
observed
a
significant
number
of
people
who
live
far
outside
the
city
of
athens,
who
express
opinions
about
the
city
of
athens
and,
in
some
instances,
they're
valuable
and
in
some
instances
we're
better
off
not
to
interact
with
them
and
they
just
waste
our
time
now
I
live
outside
the
city
houses.
I
work
here.
G
I
feel
fortunate
that
I've
had
the
opportunity
to
to
do
so
for
my
career
since
I've
been
here.
So
you
know,
I'm
not
saying
that
people
outside
the
city
of
athens
are
not
valuable
to
the
organization,
but
but
when
it
comes
to
selecting
those
folks,
mere
interest
shouldn't
be
the
the
driver.
Obviously
you
know
this
administration.
The
mayor
is
not
going
to
appoint
anybody
who
isn't
qualified
and
capable
and
for
the
ones
that
he
appoints,
but
in
the
future
you
know
beyond
us
and
beyond.
G
All
of
you
I'd
hate
to
put
something
that
you
know.
If
someone
volunteers,
they
they
just
get
to
be
on
it
and
they
could
be
from
you
know
some
community
because
there's
some
there's
some
pretty
interesting
calls
that
we
get
from
folks
that
live
far
outside
the
city
and
and
express
our
their
opinions
to
our
to
our
staff.
K
Thank
you,
it
sounds
like
there
might
be
even
some
benefit
to
sort
of
highlighting
what
points
we
are
consistent
on
across
commissions,
in
terms
of,
for
example,
council
member
grace's
point
that
perhaps
there
should
be
a
limit
to
the
number
of
folks
who
are
not
within
the
city
of
athens.
So
I
think
this
is
something
for
us
to
continue.
Thinking
about,
and
individual
recommendations
for
commissions
can
be
brought
forward
at
future
dates.
Do
we
have
any
other
questions
from
the
audience?
I
believe
it
doesn't.
A
D
Thank
you,
president
eisley.
We
have
a
few
items
on
our
agenda
tonight,
the
first
being
the
fire
headquarters
bond.
I'm
sure
everyone
is
aware
that,
on
the
may,
3rd
2022
primary
will
be
a
public
safety,
capital
improvements
and
equipment
levy,
and
we
want
to
be
prepared.
Should
this
levy
be
passed
to
move
legislation
through
to
purchase
to
sell
bonds
in
order
to
finance
the
proposed
fire
department
headquarter
project,
we
had
a
very
good
meeting
with
bond
council.
D
He
has
done
a
very
comprehensive
evaluation
of
key
metrics
within
the
city
and
you
know
compared
it
to
various
bond
rating
services
to
estimate
what
our
rating
would
come
out
and
he
is
very
confident
and
congratulatory
towards
the
auditor's
office
and
the
mayor's
office
and
city
council
for
the
city's
current
financial
status.
D
D
He
did.
You
know,
of
course,
I
think
we're
all
aware
that
interest
rates
are
going
to
go
up
and
we-
and
this
is
part
of
his
recommendation
to
the
city
that
we
get
on
top
of
this
early.
I
mean
now
we're
I'm
talking
about
legislation
and
talking
about
moving
things
forward,
but
of
course
everything
is
contingent
upon
that
levy.
D
Passing
so
we're
not
trying
to
say
that
all
this
is
happening
we
we
do
need
that
levy
to
pass,
but
if
that
levy
does
pass
on
on
may
3rd,
we
want
to
be
ready
to
go
soon
after
that,
because
it's
in
our
best
financial
interest
to
have
everything
lined
up
in
order
to
get
ahead
of
any
certainly
federal
interest
rate
changes.
D
So
a
schedule
might
look
at
introducing
in
on
may
9th
right
after
the
primary
discussing
this
in
committee
and
having
the
three
readings
into
late
june.
So
we
would
be
having
this
passed
prior
to
our
july
recess.
D
I
I
We
flew
out
to
moody's,
but
it
was
with
michael
burns
and
his
coaching
of
both
the
auditor
and
myself,
and
we
were
successful
at
hanging
on
to
double
a2
this
time
around
they
anticipated
dropping
to
moody's
is
basically
anticipating
that
we
would
go
to
double
a
three
which
is
a
drop
of
one.
But
again
mr
burns
feels
confident
with
the
you
know,
the
notching
rates
ratings
to
where
we
will
actually
stay
at
double
a2,
and
this
time
we
won't
have
to
fly
out
to
chicago
to
go
pitch
this
to
movies.
I
N
Crowd
I
just
not
directly
related
to
the
bomb,
but
really
the
fire
at
the
fire
headquarters.
I'm
just
I
like
to
push
the
information
yeah,
so
people
are
aware
of
it.
I
believe
we
have
a
tentative
date
for
the
next
open
house,
discussion
of
it
of
april
14th.
I
think
that's
what
it
was
said.
A
N
D
Thank
you
members.
If
that's
a
very
important
point,
is
that
this,
what
we're
talking
about
is
not
selecting
and
finalizing
the
location
of
this.
This
is
about
financing
and
there
are
public
meetings
going
forward
to
get
more
input
on
proposed
locations.
So
other
members
all
done
on
committee,
other
members
of
council
member
swan
two.
D
I
mean
there
is
speculation.
The
estimated
all
and
true
interest
cost
is
2.76
on
a
20-year
7.5
million
project
finance
amount,
all
right.
D
We
discussed
this
yeah
speak
to.
G
It
director,
I
don't
think
we
have
to-
we
certainly
have
to
wait
to
actually
float
the
bonds
until
after
there's
a
repayment
source,
and
so
you
know
no
investor
is
going
to
go
and
basically
give
us
the
cash
if
there
isn't
a
revenue
stream
associated
with
the
passing.
G
But
if
you
wanted
to
start
earlier,
I
think
one
of
the
discussions
we
had
was
you
know
we
don't
want
to
presume
that
something
would
you
know,
pass
it
in
a
primary,
and
maybe
you
know
starting
readings
on
on
seeking
a
bond
would
be
presumptuous
so,
but
I'll
leave
that
obviously
to
the
members
well.
H
The
reason
I
asked
this
are
actually
two
reasons
number
one
with
what
we're
seeing
in
terms
of
projected
interest
rates.
I
have
the
funniest
feeling
come.
May
the
fourth
people
are
gonna
get
in
line.
H
There
may
not
be
if
this
redistricting
thing
doesn't
get
straightened
out.
There
is
talk
of
moving
the
thing
to
either
two
primaries
kicking
the
whole
thing
to
august
we're
a
special
one
in
july.
Another
and
all
I
mean
they're,
all
over
the
board
in
columbus
right
now
we're
talking
with
some
lobbyists
today
and
they
don't
know-
and
I'm
just
wondering
if
we
kick
it
out
that
much
further
and
then
start
the
you
know
the
three
readings
which
is
five
weeks
and
then
45
to
70
days
before
you
know
it
it's
christmas
time.
H
D
A
I
think,
but
what
might
be
helpful
too,
is
to
check
with
mr
burns
to
see
if
this
has
been
done
before,
because
I
think
that
way
the
overwhelming
thought
was
that
it
would
appear
presumptuous,
and
I
I
understand
what
you're
saying
council
members
swag
about
the
precariousness
of
our
of
our
primary.
K
You
I
appreciate
the
effort,
that's
gone
into
getting
multiple
sort
of
scenarios
covered
and
overestimating
our
costs.
I
just
was
looking
for
clarification,
understanding
that
this
is
not
about
where
the
fire
station
headquarters
would
go,
but
is
that
a
consideration
in
a
potential
change
for
an
interest
rate,
for
example?
Does
the
interest
rate
potentially
change,
because
it's
in
a
flood
plain
versus
not
do
you
have
any
sense
of
that.
G
We
have
flood
damage
prevention
legislation
in
our
code.
That
requires
us
to
fill
to
one
foot
above
for
any
type
of
development
that
would
occur
in
the
floodplain
and
we
wouldn't
build
anything
otherwise.
For
a
public
safety
facility.
Flood
damage
prevention
legislation
requires
filter
two
feet
above
so
post
construction.
It
would
not
be
in
a
flood
plain.
G
You
know
those
things
that
sit
below
that
are
in
the
flood
plain
are
the
places
that,
when
you,
when
you,
when
you
get
financing
against
them,
a
bank
would
require
you
to
carry
federal
flood
insurance
in
this
case,
because
it
will
be
above
that
financing,
whether
it's
a
bond
or
whatever
it's
a
source
of
financing,
there's
no
requirement
to
buy
federal
flood
insurance.
It's
out
at
that
point.
D
K
D
F
I
remember
when
the
we
worked
on
the
bond
back
in
2016.
and
I
seem
to
recall-
I
may
be
wrong
about
this-
that
the
day
that
the
bonds
actually
went
on
sale.
I
I
D
F
F
Our
rating
that
the
rating
that
double
a2
is
boy-
that's
gold.
You
know
for
for
a
city
this
size
and
with
our
income,
be
nice
to
kick
it
up
a
little
higher.
But
you
know
I'll
do
my
best.
D
Okay,
so
we'll
move
on
to
the
next
item
on
our
agenda,
which
are
appropriations
a
number
of
separate
pieces
here,
the
arts
parks
and
recreation
department,
as
we
think
I've
discussed
previously-
or
maybe
it's
just
in
separate
meetings,
but
is
looking
to
update
their
the
software
that
they
use
for
all
of
their
programming,
all
of
their
youth
sports
and
other
programs,
and
the
appropriations
would
split
the
overall
thirty
thousand
dollar
cost
between
fund
270,
which
is
recreation
and
fund
273,
which
is
the
arts
parks,
recreation
income
tax
fund.
D
So
the
first
item
here
really
is
those
first,
two,
fifteen
thousand
and
fifteen
thousand
for
a
total
of
thirty
for
new
software.
Any
questions
from
the
committee
on
this
item.
G
This
allows
us
to
switch
from
active,
active
net
which
we've
used
since
the
kind
of
mid-2000s
and
we've
had
some
challenges
with
active
net,
and
it's
it's
not
a
low-cost
system
either.
So
civic
rack
is
at
least
as
as
at
least
as
good
of
value,
if
not
a
little
bit
better
number
one
so
number
two.
It
fits
in
with
civic
plus,
which
is
the
software
that
we're
already
using
for
the
city
website
and
a
variety
of
things
that
the
government
channel
uses
as
they
drive
our
our
front-facing.
G
G
We're
trying
to
move
this
now,
because
the
contract
runs
out,
I
believe,
at
the
end
of
june,
with
with
active
net,
and
this
will
allow
a
transition
of
data
and
such
so
that
you
don't
see
a
blip
when
that
one
switches
over
to
the
other
one.
D
G
Already
you
know
they're
they're,
already
familiar
with
civic
plus
and
that
system
that
drives
kind
of
our
web
pages.
So
it's
not,
and
because
it's
a
plug
into
that,
I
think
I
think
it'll
be
fine.
H
Functions
in
it
because
we've
always
talked
about
generating
revenue,
are
there
some
sales
and
marketing
pieces
to
this
too,
or
is
it.
G
Just
I
I
will
check
you
know
I.
I
don't
know
that
there's
a
crm
component
of
I
know
that
there's
you
know,
point
of
sale
capability
and
such
to
be
able
to
go,
and
you
know
have
all
that
interconnect
but
to
be
able
to
go
and
say
you
know,
andy
stone
signed
up
for
yoga
and
so
therefore
andy
stone
should
be
have
yoga.
You
know
things
sent
to
his
house
for
the
next
time
that
it
comes.
I
don't
know
that
it's
got
that
capability,
but
I'll
check.
D
Look
forward
to
seeing
you
there
other
questions
from
non-committee
members,
anyone
else.
Okay.
Moving
on
to
the
next
item,
arts
west
is
looking
to
do
their
very
own
production,
theatrical
production
this
summer
and
their
this
appropriation
would
be
six
thousand
dollars
to
the
recreation
fund.
D
Of
course,
the
space
can
be
rented
for
shows
and
it
has
been
many
times,
but
then
all
of
the
revenue
that
comes
from
tickets
etc
goes
to
the
people
who
rented
the
space
and
arts
west
is
just
receiving
the
the
rental
payment.
So
this
would
be
a
chance
not
only
to
for
the
city
to
put
on
its
own
show,
but
also
to
receive
the
revenue
from
from
the
tickets.
For
that
show
any
questions
about
this
item.
Yes,.
E
This
is
really
a
question.
It's
just
that
I
did
spend
some
time
with
emily
this
past
week
and,
as
you
noted,
they
are
trying
to
transition
from
it
being
primarily
rental
to
really
having
more
in-house
activities
like
this,
so
that
they
can
amplify
the
use
largely
for
kids
after
school.
For
one
thing,
the
middle
schools
close
by
as
you
know,
but
to,
as
you
noted,
add
some
more
revenue
to
their
their
programming.
E
So
I
was
impressed
with
her
ideas
and
thoughts
about
this.
So
I'm
very
supportive
of
of
this
and
and
their
direction.
K
B
Not
a
question
either,
but
just
my
daughter
is
in
sixth
grade
at
the
middle
school
and
participates
in
two
different
after-school
programming
opportunities
that
have
been
happening
at
arts
west
and
one
is
a
sixth
grade
drama
club
that
is
organized
by
tantrum,
theater
and
but
taking
place
at
arts
west,
and
I
just
want
to
commend
emily
beveridge
and
for
really
working
to
grow.
These
after-school
programs,
because
it's
it's
such
a
fantastic
opportunity
for
the
especially
the
sixth,
seventh
and
eighth
graders
this
year
to
be
able
to
walk
to
arts
west.
B
She
has
a
drawing
class
on
tuesdays
and
I
know
they
offer
ceramics
and,
and
then
the
middle
school
drama
club
has
been
meeting
there,
and
I
know
that
the
drama
club
had
a
production
there
tonight.
I
fortunately
got
to
see
my
daughter
in
the
production
yesterday,
but
I
missed
tonight's
performance,
but
it's
it's
really
a
successful
partnership
and
I
look
forward
to
continued
productions
at
our
twist.
H
Up
brings
up
a
real,
interesting
issue.
H
The
number
one
thing
preventing
young
people
participating
in
what
the
city
offers
and
the
school
offers
after
school
is
transportation
going
forward
as
we
build
this
out.
I
think
that's
something
we
need
to
take
a
look
at.
I
don't
know
if
the
city
bus
system
goes
to
the
plains
and
chansey,
but
that's
what
keeps
kids
my
bet
is
if
we
took
a
a
a
roster
of
those
kids
participating
and
what
their
home
elementary
school
is,
there's
a
lot
of
kids
that
aren't
participating
simply
because
of
transportation
issues,
and
you
know
going
forward.
H
I
think
that's
something
we
need.
We
would
start
talking
about
equity
and
inclusion,
and
all
of
that
that's
a
group
of
kids.
We
often
forget-
and
there
there's
so
much
research
that
shows,
if
you
involve
kids
in
good
things,
their
chances
of
being
involved
in
bad
things
decreases
exponentially
so
yeah,
your
kids
and
my
kids
or
grandkids.
That's
not
an
issue,
but
for
many
of
the
kids
out
a
little
bit.
H
D
K
D
G
So
we,
when
we
started,
you
know
really
driving
hard
after
school
programming
at
arts
west
in
particular
a
few
years
ago,
which
was
kind
of
the
the
catalyst
to
get
this
thing
going.
G
You
know,
a
major
goal
was
to
try
to
take
advantage
of
you
know
west
elementary
school
students
and
a
need
for
you
know,
after-school
programming
specifically,
and
we
ran
into
that
transportation
problem.
G
You
asked
the
question
about
the
city,
bus
system
and
the
city
bus
system,
being
a
rural
transit
organization
funded
through
through
odot,
ultimately
and
federal
federal
federal
world
transit
money
is
not
allowed
to
function
as
a
charter
service,
so
we
tried
to
go
and
say:
hey:
can
we
go
and
pay
extra
money
to
have
this
system
go
and-
and
there
are
laws
associated
with
competing
with
other
bus
systems
if
you
go
and
take
it
and
charter
that
bus
to
move
a
group-
and
it
really
sounds
pretty
stupid
frankly,
I
I
think
it's
pretty
stupid
but
yeah.
G
I
didn't
write
the
federal
law
and,
and
at
the
time
the
school
district
was,
you
know,
overwhelmed
managing
just
getting
people
to
where
they
needed
to
go
inside
the
school
district
with
their
school
buses
school
bus,
the
school
district
could
move
people,
but
you
know
they
have
a
hard
enough
time.
You
know
getting
where
they
need
to
go
with
the
limited
number
of
drivers
and
buses
they
have.
So
it
is
a
challenge
and
it's
something
that
we'll
continue
to
work
on.
G
I
would
agree
with
remember
swank
that
it's
a
barrier,
but
it's
it's
a
hard
nut
to
crack.
B
So
it
is,
it
is
an
option
for
high
schoolers
who
are
capable
of
walking
from
the
high
school
to
the
plains
library
and
then,
as
we've
discussed,
the
middle
school
is
in
close
enough
proximity
to
arts
west,
but
the
elementary
school
students
that
it
would
it
would
be
great
to
be
able
to
have
them
safely
transported
for
after-school
programming
as
well.
D
Other
comments
or
questions
on
this
issue.
Okay,
moving
on
to
the
next
item
these
next
two
I'm
going
to
lump
together,
we
have
discussed
spending
five
hundred
thousand
dollars
on
the
armory
capital
improvements
for
rehabilitating
the
armory
space,
as
we
heard
tonight
from
zach
rises.
D
The
appropriations
here
recommended
are
250
000
dollars,
appropriated
to
the
arpa
fund
for
this
purpose,
which
is
286
and
then
also
250
000
to
the
capital
improvements
fund
580..
So
this
would
be
a
total
of
five
hundred
thousand
dollars
for
the
army
rehabilitation.
D
I
believe
all
of
this
is
targeting
the
the
building
itself,
although
a
lot
of
the
envelope
of
the
building
has
already
been
secured,
so
there
are
windows
that
are
coming
and
the
roof
has
been
done
a
number
of
years
ago
mayor.
I
want
to
add
to
this.
I
I'm
glad
you
brought
that
up.
Councilman
crowell,
you
know
we
we've
been
pretty
diligent
as
a
as
a
local
government
when
it
comes
to
preserving
that
building
and
it
really
started
with
mayor
paul
weil
to
where
we
had
the
building.
You
know
the
tuck
work
redone
on
the
exterior,
so
the
exterior
that
particular
part
of
the
envelope
was
was
addressed,
has
a
new
roof
on
it.
I
So
we've
invested
over
280
thousand
dollars,
and
that
includes
the
new
windows
which
are
here
they
just
haven't
been
installed
yet
so
we'll
start
installing
those
now
complete
the
building
envelope.
So
primarily,
this
funding
would
be
for
the
first
floor.
Interior
work
and
I've
been
pretty
diligent
since
2016
of
protecting
and
growing
the
capital
improvements
budget
line,
and
we
have
over
a
million
dollars
in
that
fun
line,
and
I
was
protecting
that
money
for
when
we
got
to
a
point
where
we
could
really
start
to
reinvest
into
the
armory
and
bring
it
online.
I
We
will
be
getting
a
second
tranche
of
the
our
second
allocation
if
you
will
of
the
american
rescue
plan
dollars
this
summer,
and
I
will
likely
come
back
to
council
again
for
another
250
000
and
possibly
an
additional
250
000
from
capital
improvements
to
put
a
million
dollars
into
the
the
building
to
get
things
going
that,
coupled
with
the
380
that
we've
already
invested,
it's
really
showing
with
the
the
hope
that
we
can
get
in
the
cap
budget
this
time
around.
I
It's
showing
that
you
know
the
city
is
serious
about
investing
in
this
building
and
hoping
we
can
get
senator
hogwan
and
representative
edwards
to
champion
something
through
at
the
state
level
to
to
come
with
some
funding
through
the
state
cap
budget,
possibly
operation
budget
the
year
after,
for
this.
G
One
other
piece-
I
don't
I
mean
just
to
pile
on
again.
This
is
all
part
of
a
package
right
to
kind
of
piece.
Everything
together
to
get
enough
money
to
go
and
get
the
project
across
is
the
vibram
communities
program,
which
is
a
grant
where,
through
ohio
southeast,
which
is
an
economic
development
arm
of
state
government
state
government.
You
know
the
you
know
the
51
c3
that
exists
to
kind
of
spend
liquor
money
to
help
to
help
prompt
economic
development.
I
And
one
more
pilot,
you
know,
council,
with
the
the
fiber
project.
Again
there
will
be
fire
that
runs
up
to
the
armory,
which
is
providing
that
high-speed
broadband
out
of
that
building
for
it
to
operate
as
a
co-work
shirt
workspace.
So
it's
like
the
pieces
are
all
aligning,
and
this
is
this
is
pretty
exciting.
This
is
something
that
you
know
with
former
mayor,
paul
weil's.
I
You
know
approval
chris
fall
council
member
chris
fall
at
the
time,
and
I
worked
really
hard
on
putting
together
an
ad
hoc
committee
back
in
2014,
and
it
just
seemed
like
you
know
something
that
was
so
obtainable
at
the
time
was.
You
know
bright-eyed
city,
council
member,
but
you
know
I
also
recognize
that
it
takes
a
lot
of
time
and
a
lot
of
smart
planning
to
get
this
building
back
into
the
public's
hands
again.
D
Thank
you
mayor
and
just
to
respond
to
directly
to
remember
mccary.
As
far
as
the
outside
of
the
building,
I
love
the
park
that
the
parklet
that
is
there
now
it's
such
a
great
use
of
the
space
that
used
to
be
just
a
storage,
you
know
absolutely
unusable,
fenced
eyesore.
I
don't.
D
I
haven't
seen
any
plans
that
have
major
changes
to
the
rest
of
the
outside,
except
for
proposed
entrants
on
the
on
the
west
side
of
the
building,
for
handicap,
accessibility
etc,
but
other
than
that
I
don't
know
about
other
parks
or
any
kind
of
green
space.
I
think
probably
it'll
remain
parking
on
that
side,
so
so
no
major
changes
as
far
as
I
know
about
the
exterior
of
the
building.
Thank
you.
D
B
All
different
armory
related
details
and
it
does
tie
into
our
partnership
with
sunday
creek.
I
think
the
I
think
we
have
a
good
chance
at
some
funding
from
the
state
in
large
part
due
to
their
work
and
connections
in
in
promoting
this,
and
also
in
highlighting
to
members
of
our
legislature,
the
the
veterans
memorial
section
that
will
be
a
part
of
this
and
sort
of
by
breaking
this
project
into
pieces.
B
We
can
get
support
from
different
entities
for
the
different
pieces
and
so
things
that
that
perhaps
our
state
legislature
would
be
less
likely
to
send
money.
Our
way
where
we
can.
We
can
pull
from
other
funds,
perhaps
from
our
capital
budget
or
the
arpa
funds,
and
and
complete
portions,
like
especially
the
accessibility
issue
that
entrance
and
the
elevator.
B
If
those
can
be
incorporated
into
parts
of
the
plans
for
a
veteran's
memorial,
then
it
it.
It
brings
the
different
pots
of
funding
together
for
one
big
picture.
D
I
agree
some
naked
horizons
in
the
city
administration
has
been
very
creative
in
trying
to
figure
this
out
and
we're
all
very
hopeful
that
it's
gonna
all
work
out.
Okay,
no
more
comments.
Last
item
on
our
agenda
is
a
500
appropriation
to
the
recreation
fund.
To
mention.
