Thank

Moving
on
to
item
number,
eight
is
a
resolution
for
public
hearing,
a
public
hearing
on
assessments
for
the
garbage
and
junk
removal.
Anybody
here
in
the
audience
wishing
to
speak
on
this
matter.
Yes,
sir,
please
step
to
the
podium
and
give
us
your
name
and
address
please
for
the
record
foreign.
H
H
H
Okay,
we
had
done
it
the
Sunday
before
and
got
to
the
dispose
of
it
to
the
garbage,
got
it
cleaned
up
and
in
the
time
frame
that
it
said,
I
had
10
days,
I
went
into
the
zoning
commission.
They
said
that
they
had
a
bunch
of
properties.
Our
next
door,
neighbor
had
garbage
fridges
and
everything
they
did.
The
cleanup.
H
C
H
H
It
was
okay
and
I
was
made
clear
that,
and
you
had
one
of
your
workers,
saying
that
that
a
supposed
Bill
had
been
sent
to
me
and
he
said
and
claimed
that
there
was
five
other
people
that
day
were
within
that
week.
It
was
claiming
the
same
thing:
I
never
received
saying
that
I
was
getting
fined
or
a
bill
or
anything
I
got
a
letter
saying
that
I
had
10
days
to
clean
the
violation.
Otherwise
the
city
was
going
to
come
in
and
do
it
and
they
were
going
to
charge
me
the
fee.
C
I
C
G
E
E
J
I
I
I
H
H
H
The
harassment
that
I
get
is
that
that's
a
violation
because
I
have
this
bag
of
garbage.
Now
that's
a,
but
the
thing
is:
is
that
when
I
get
this
letter,
saying
that
hey
I'm
violating
the
city
ordinance
and
I
get
it
taken
care
of
they're
coming
back
and
now
they're
saying
that
I
have
another
violation,
because
I
have
a
stack
of
wood.
That's
not
neatly
against
my
my
property!
H
So
now
I
get
125
dollar
fine,
because
it's
another
offense,
not
the
same
offense
that
you
know
the
the
bag
of
garbage
is
still
there.
It's
another
violation
of
all.
There's
something
else
on
your
property
that
someone
doesn't
like
to
see
the
same.
The
same
citation
was
not
so
I
have
a
citation
for
a
and
a
citation
for
B,
but
both
of
them
have
been
taken
care
of
in
the
time
frame
that
it
was
allowed
and
I'm
still
getting
assessed.
C
So
I
guess
Council.
We
have
a
decision
to
make
here.
We
have
an
ordinance
on
on
the
books
that
says
second
or
subsequent
offense
within
24
months.
There's
pictures
taken,
there's
there's
a
visit
to
the
home,
he's
saying
that
he
doesn't
deserve
the
125
fee,
I'm
open
to
council's
solution
to
this
just
to
move
the
meeting
on
I
think
we
have
a
you
know,
I
get
that
we
are
we're
complaint
based
on
your
neighbor.
That's
how
we
roll
in
Austin.
C
We
don't
have
a
full-time,
assessor
or
inspector
driving
around,
but
we
rely
upon
neighbors
to
complain
and
whether
you
think
you're
being
targeted
by
this
neighbor
I,
can't
be
for
sure
on
that.
But
there's
been
documented
issues.
At
least
the
city
has
pictures
and
they've
sent
out
mailings,
and
we
do
have
that
on
our
on
our
ordinance
that
it's
a
it's
a
fee,
if
it's
second
or
subsequent.
So
it's
certainly
up
to
the
council
if
they
want
to
choose
to
modify
or
dismiss
or
anything
else,
I'm
open
to
that.
J
K
A
couple
of
observations,
so,
first
I,
don't
want
to
get
confused
on
the
item
that
we're
on
that
doesn't
appear
to
involve
this
property
owner
and
two
I
just
want
the
council
to
know
that
with
administrative
citations.
There
is
a
a
process
for
challenging
those
that
that
is
in
the
ordinance,
and
it
would
bring
the
issue
back
to
the
council
if
it
was
challenged
properly
and
there's
a
form
that
you
fill
out
to
say
that
you
don't
believe
that
the
administrative
citation
is
appropriate
and
that
would
allow
staff
to
present
a
report
that
would.
C
C
I
I
C
C
J
L
G
C
E
C
C
C
L
So
we
got
this
letter
recently
last
week
and
we
decided
to
give
a
a
visit
to
Brent
and
to
the
City
Hall
here
about
the
this
matter,
that
they
have
charged
us
with
the
125,
and
they
said
that
they
have
sent
two
previous
letters
down
to
our
residents
and
we
did
not
receive
them
at
all
and
it's
for
the
junk
that
we
have
accumulated
in
the
back.
But
it
is
part
of
our
job.
L
We
do
garbage
removal
out
of
the
houses
of
evictions
and
all
that
and
we
accumulated
waiting
for
a
certain
period,
so
we
can
go,
throw
it
away
into
a
landfill,
but
there
was
a
certain
time
back
when
they
took
the
pictures
back
in
April
where
they
took
the
pictures
and
that
that
there
was
a
period
where
the
landfill
was
temporarily
closed
and
we
couldn't
get
rid
of
it.
So
that
was
when
they
took
one
of
them
and
once
we
got
rid
of
some,
we
also
we
we
have.
L
There
are
certain
days
that
you
have
to
throw
it
away,
so
we
accumulated
more
in
around
one
of
those
days.
They
obviously
took
the
picture
in
in
when
we
had
the
garbage
there
so,
but
we
have
been
getting
rid
of
that
stuff
like
we
do.
We
pick
it
up
and
we
get
rid
of
it
and
we
have
it's
clean
right
now.
The
residence
is
clean
and
we've
recently
just
got
this
letter
that
they
want
us
to
pay
the
125,
but
we
don't.
L
We
haven't,
received
the
letters
that
they
sent
before
and
they
might
argue
that
we,
we
maybe
receive
the
letters.
So
that's
why
we
cleaned
it
up,
but
we
did
not
receive
them
or
pick
up
any
letters
that
they
said
that
they
certified
so
yeah.
We
it's
cleaned
and
we
recently
got
another
letter
for
fixing
up
the
west
side
of
the
house.
We
got.
We
got
that
one,
so
we
came
here
to
speak
about
that
right
when
we
got
it
and
we
fixed
everything
up.
I
C
Outside
of
the
letter
not
getting
the
letter,
it
seems
like
you're
there.
It
was
a
timing
issue,
a
bad
timing
to
leave
garbage
and
refuse
wherever
you're
cleaning
up
in
a
different
house
outside.
Maybe
there's
a.
If
this
is
your
business?
Is
there
somewhere
else?
You
could
store
it
until
there
was
the
transfer
station
wherever
you
dump,
it
is
open.
C
C
M
C
It's
unfortunate
that
it
is
a
timing
issue
I
appreciate
what
you
do
for
people
cleaning
up,
that
we
have
the
administrative
citation
fee
for
I
think
a
very
good
reason
and
I'm.
Sorry,
you
become
a
victim
of
this
based
on
poor
timing
of
when
you
take
your
stuff
to
the
landfill,
but
that's
just
how
that's
how
the
ordinance
is
written
and
I
think
the
we
just
have
to
abide
by
that.
C
This
one
already
all
through
the
process
of
the
waiting
for
now
so
the
the
grievance
portion
two
months
whatever
it
is,
I,
don't
know
what
the
grievance
portion
is
Holly
that
that's
expired
also
now,
whether
you
it
was
on
the
letter,
you
didn't
get
I
can't
answer
that.
But
these
are
difficult
situations.
We
don't
want
to
assess
people
just
to
be
punitive
and
I
understand
that
you
seem
like
you,
have
something
going
you're
actually
trying
to
remove
junk
and
help
people
with
that.
But
again
the
timing
got
the
bestie
on
this
one.
I
C
I
C
Yeah
and
we
sent
them
out
certified
we
don't
we
can't
very
you
know
we
don't
force
people
to
pick
it
up,
but
we
we
do
our
best
to
make
sure
that
you
get
that
letter.
It's
unfortunate
that
you
didn't,
we
couldn't
do
any
more.
We
couldn't
do
anything
different
other
than
sending
it
out
certified.
It's.
C
C
Paid
by
October
31st
circles
on
their
taxes
for
next
year,
so
you
can
stop
in
the
main
office
here
anytime,
eight
to
five
all
right!
Thank
you.
Thank
you.
Sorry,
all
right
now
that
was
the
zoning
one
we're
going
back
to
10A
adopting
the
assessment
role
for
the
park
and
rec
is
anybody
here
from
the
public
wishing
to
speak
on
this
matter.
C
F
Do
I
have
one
and
I
know
we
don't
want
to
get
into
these
on
a
case-by-case
basis,
but
one
particular
case
is
brought
to
my
attention
and
I
started
looking
into
it
and
that's
Jessica
Alfaro
Hernandez.
She
has
three
citations
for
not
mowing
or
the
height
of
her
grass
and
I
talked
to
her.
She
acknowledges
that,
yes,
she
didn't
mower
the
family
member
that
was
supposed
to
be
doing.
F
It
wasn't
claims
that,
based
on
her
life
situation
with
work
and
kids,
that
she
was
not
able
to
go
pick
up
the
three
certified
letters
that
we
sent
to
her.
She
acknowledges
the
fines
and
fees
associated
with
having
to
mow
her
lawn
but
I'm
asking
if
we
can
waive
the
late
fees
that
she
was
charged.
Her
total
fine
is
275
with
late
fees
of
fifty
dollars
and
just
talking
to
her,
like
she's
willing
to
pay
and
I'm
just
asking
the
council
if
they
would
consider
assessing
fees
of
225
versus
275.
I
apologize.
C
F
She's
she's
telling
me
that
she
was
not.
She
received
the
notifications
that
she
had
certified
mail,
the
reasons
that
people
don't
go
pick
up.
Certified
mail,
I
can't
say,
but
she
said
that
she,
because
of
her
job
and
her
family
situation,
she
was
not
able
to
get
to
the
post
office
to
pick
them
up.
So
she
didn't
address
this
until
she
got
the
actual
letter
in
the
mail
saying
that
she
had
all
these.
C
G
K
That,
in
order
to
really
present
a
challenge
to
the
assessment
role
at
this
stage,
a
written
challenge
is
required
either
prior
to
or
at
the
public
hearing.
We
don't
have
written
challenge.
We
have
an
oral
challenge.
We
don't
have
that
the
property
owner
themselves
advancing
their
claim,
but
that's
on
a
technical
basis.
If
the
council
wants
to
amend
its
role
before
it
approves
it,
the
council
has
some
some
leeway
to
do
that.
It
just
opens
up
what
do
we
do
the
next
case,
and
what
did
we
do
the
last
case?

It's
a
three-year
tax
abatement
program
for
any
new
single
or
multi-family
unit
in
the
community
to
try
to
address
our
housing
challenges
that
we
have
in
the
community.
We
need
more
production.
This
is
to
incentivize
that
we've
had
65
abatements,
with
approximately
23.9
million
in
estimated
value.
I
would
be
happy
to
answer
any
questions.
Otherwise,
we
ask
for
Council
approval
for
renewing
of
the
program.
The,
Mower,
County
and
the
school
district
are
supportive
of
the
measure.
It
sounds
like
Mower.
J
N
B
D
D
We
process
our
2023
insurance
application
with
the
league
of
Minnesota
cities.
One
of
the
annual
requests
is
the
city
going
to
proposed
to
not
waive
the
statutory
tort
limits,
which
then
limits
the
amount
that
we
can
be
in
essence
sued
for
from
almost
all
cases,
League
of
Minnesota
cities
highly
recommends
that
we
continue
our
process
of
not
waving
statutory
torque
limits.
We'd
request,
Council
authorization
to
do
that.
C
P
I
reviewed
their
proposal
in
detail,
went
back
to
them
and
asked
them
so
that
we
have
a
baseline
for
what
the
Baseline
noise
is
today
in
that
actual
neighborhood
was
to
have
some
in
field
measurements,
so
they
have
made
an
adjustment
to
their
proposal
to
include
that,
along
with
all
the
other
work
required.
The
other
work
that
they
were
planning
to
do
was
more
modeling
using
existing
ground
topple,
using
using
lots
of
data
that
they
can
collect
from
their
office.
P
In
order
to
do
the
noise
study,
this
will
help
them
to
have
exact
in-field
measurements
to
go
along
with
accurate.
This
way
and
to
do
that
their
cost
increased
I
believe
what
we
had
at
the
work
session
was
seven
thousand
eight
hundred
and
eighty
eight
dollars
it's
now
eleven
thousand
three
hundred
and
fifty
dollars
so
present
that
to
you,
you
could
approve
either
option.
If
you
don't
think
the
in-field
testing
is
necessary,
we
could
go
back
to
the
788
or
go
with
the
proposal
in
front
of
you
in
that
amount
of
11
350.
P
P
P
They'll
have
a
they
have
specialized
equipment
to
do
it.
It
is
it'll
either
be
from
a
vehicle,
or
it
may
be.
Somebody
standing
right
there
with
the
necessary
equipment
required
to
meet
mndot's,
Noise,
recording
documents
and
can't
just
be
out
there
with
my
cell
phone
and
the
audible
app
or
whatever
is
required
to
do.
C
D
C
C
D
Q
So
we've
been
involved
in
Minnesota's
towards
zero
death
program
for
quite
some
time.
It
used
to
be
called
the
safe
and
sober
program.
It
is
funds
through
the
federal
government,
via
the
state
that
are
given
out
to
local
law
enforcement
agencies,
to
allow
us
to
specifically
have
shifts
that
focus
on
the
enforcement
of
our
traffic
laws.
Q
The
City
of
Austin
has
always
been
the
administrator,
and
the
sheriff's
department
does
work
this
with
us
and
so
shifts
are
available
to
both
communities.
The
sheriff's
department
would
just
basically
bill
us
back
for
the
the
costs
they
use
at
each
particular
wave.
These
waves
are
done
in
coordination
with
some
of
the
television
ads
you'll,
see
related
to
drunk
driving
in
antenna
driving
speed
things
of
that
nature.
Hopefully,
the
combination
of
that
educational
piece
enforcement
engineering
will
bring
Minnesota
closer
to
not
having
any
traffic
safety
deaths
when
we're
working
these
shifts.
Q
Unless
it's
a
dire
emergency,
these
officers
don't
go
on
calls.
They
just
get
to
focus
on
the
traffic
nature
of
what
we
bring
them
in.
To
do
this
particular
Grant
would
be
for
just
under
twenty
one
thousand
dollars.
Jj
Mueller
has
administered
this
for
the
last
couple
years
and
this
resolution
allows
us
to
move
forward
within
that
process.
To
finalize
it.
C
J
Yes,
we
did
receive
a
letter
back
to
Council.
In
regards
to
our
letter,
we
sent
to
legislative
leaders
on
the
failure
to
conclude
the
legislative
session
and
a
proper
manner
with
a
bonding
Bill
and
Etc
Speaker
of
the
House
Melissa
Hartman
responded
to
us
outlining
her
position
and
that
they
continue
to
support
a
special
session,
but
otherwise
thought
I'd
pass
that
along
and
Julie
kleinfelter
has
something
from
the
library,
okay,
Julie.
R
Week
at
the
library,
with
our
our
Austin,
our
America
Community
collaboration
Grant,
we
have
the
African
dance.
Troop
is
going
to
be
at
the
library
at
11
o'clock
for
free
performance
to
talk
a
little
bit
about
the
music
that
they
use
and
the
dances
that
they're
doing
and
it's
a
it's
a
kids
truth.
So
that's
going
to
be
a
lot
of
fun
and
then,
at
one
o'clock
the
same
day,
September
sorry
Saturday,
October,
8th
at
one
o'clock
we're
going
to
have
an
artist
pray
right.
R
E
D
C
C
C
S
And
I'm
I'm
aware
people
reached
out
to
some
of
you
today,
I'm
just
following
up
to
see.
If
there's
any
way,
we
can
put
this
on
an
agenda
or
figure
something
out.
My
grandson
is
one
of
the
kids
that
this
summer
was
attacked
at
a
park
because
it's
not
his
Park
and
I've
got
videos
from
other
incidents
that
are
happening.
These
are
some
pretty
big
fights
and
people
being
jumped
and
the
common
denominator
on
quite
a
few
of
them,
I
can't
speak
for
all
of
them.
Are
this
is
our
Park?
Well,
my
grandson.
S
S
These
are
our
parks
and
I'm
concerned
for
the
safety
of
adults,
for
children,
for
our
community
and
I
think
it's
time
that
we
all
come
together
and
figure
out
what
we're
going
to
do
to
ensure
the
safety
of
everybody
at
these
Parks,
because,
quite
honestly,
if
you
go
on
this
post
on
neighborhood
watch,
this
is
not
a
rare
thing.
This
is
happening
to
many
many
people
and
adults
and
it's
adults
with
their
kids.
Fighting
people
like
it's
acceptable,
I.
Just
it
really
concerns
me.
It
concerns
me
for
the
whole
city
right.
S
Q
I
recall
that
particular
one
as
well
I'm
not
going
to
necessarily
comment
on
individual
cases.
I
was
aware
of
some
correspondence
that
the
council
receives
today
about
the
parks.
Austin
does
have
a
phenomenal
Park
system.
There
are
many
of
them
they
are
well
used.
They
are
often
very
busy
anytime.
You
have
Divergent
groups
of
people
using
and
sharing
those
spaces.
Unfortunately,
you
have
some
risk
of
having
conflict
from
time
to
time.
Q
I,
don't
think
2022
or
2021
is
necessarily
showing
us
any
increases,
at
least
as
long
as
we
look
at
the
data
I
believe
the
incident
you
spoke
about
is
outside
of
the
data.
When
do
I
looked
at
I,
looked
from
April
1st
of
Any
Given
year
to
October
3rd
generally,
when
the
parks
are
open
and
when
they're,
the
busiest
in
2022,
we
have
had
two
fight
calls
to
our
Parks.
We've
had
two
assault
calls,
one
of
which
was
determined
not
to
have
been
an
assault.
It
was
a
misinterpretation.
Q
So
three
calls
roughly
in
that
six-month
period
in
2022,
in
21,
we
had
that
same
period.
Two
flight
calls
three
assault.
Calls
in
2020
two
flight
calls.
Two
assault
calls
2019
four
fight
calls
one
assault
call
not
all
the
times
when
we
arrive
where
we
find
active
fighting
going
on.
In
all
of
these
cases.
Q
It's
it's
kind
of
consistent.
The
the
parks
are
different
in
each
and
every
one
of
these
some
years
it
might
be
we're
at
Todd
Park
other
years
the
band
show.
One
incident
was
at
the
pool
once
at
the
skate
park.
So
there's
not
consistency
over
time,
but
you
are
having
often
young
people
having
some
conflicts
at
the
park.
Sometimes
it's
agreed
upon
meeting
spot
to
settle
conflicts
and
other
times
and
I.
Think
there's
a
video
from
a
call
we
went
to
in
Todd
Park
on
September
19th,
that's
making
the
rounds.
Q
You
had
a
very
busy
part
that
day
I
was
able
to
look
at
the
squad.
Video
we
were
called
for.
A
fight.
No
fight
was
ongoing.
When
we
got
there,
we
did
have
to
de-escalate
some
folks
who
are
still
verbally
having
some
issues.
However,
again
based
on
what
we
were
getting
from
the
the
folks
there,
there
wasn't
a
means
for
us
to
pursue
anything
criminally
and
again
some
cases.
That's
not
going
to
be
available
to
us.
What
we're
able
to
do
is
make
sure
nothing
is
ongoing.
Q
De-Escalate
things,
the
best
of
our
ability
move,
those
people
in
and
out
of
the
park
I
would
certainly
share
that.
What
what
happened
and
transpired
on
on
September
17th
was
was
not
acceptable.
I
know
the
officers
delivered
that
message
to
the
adults
that
were
involved.
It
sounds
like
it
was
something
where
the
various
kids
were
not
behaving,
and
these
were
younger
kids
and
the
adults
rather
than
interceding
and
de-escalating.
It
appeared
to
have
picked
sides
and
it
led
to
a
fight.
It's
unfortunate,
it's
not
acceptable
within
the
within
the
data.
Q
While
these
things
happen
and
they're
not
acceptable,
and
we
don't
want
to
see
them
happen,
we
want
to
see
the
number
being
zero.
It
is
a
reflection
that
Austin
is
a
large
enough
City.
We
have
enough
people
using
and
being
in
these
Parks,
especially
an
age
where
you
have
conflict
that
that
we
we
see
these
and
we
attempt
to
manage
them
on
a
case-by-case
basis,
trying
our
best
to
either
de-escalate
or
if
we
do
have
those
who
are
willing
to
pursue
criminal.
E
C
S
And
and
I
totally
respect
that
I
mean
I
am
in
total
support
of
the
police
and
community,
and
my
grandfather
was
a
cop
for
47
years.
But
to
me
when
you
have
30
people
on
one
person
and
nobody
is
held
accountable,
that's
a
problem
when
kids
are
posting
this
and
laughing
and
then
coming
back
the
next
day
and
telling
people
to
bring
it
and
telling
you
again
that
it's
their
park,
I
think
there's
concern
there.
S
You
know
I,
just
I,
think
that
the
more
that
we're
not
holding
people
accountable
for
those
actions,
whether
it's
both
parties
at
that
point,
you
know
like
I,
I,
wasn't
there
for
that
one,
but
I
know
my
grandson
is
still
mentally
having
a
very
hard
time.
Understanding
why
the
statement
back
was
we
don't
do
anything
with
14
or
under?
This
is
going
to
go
with
him
for
a
long
time
and
he's
literally
looking
at
now
having
surgery
on
his
nose
and
nothing
was
done
and
they
knew
who
it
was.
S
You
know
these
kids
go
back
to
school
and
then
they're
threatening
them
and
saying
hey.
You
know
you
want
a
repeat
of
this.
Well,
it's
because
they're
not
being
held
accountable
and
I
guess
I!
Don't
personally
feel
like
if
you
take
some
time
and
read
the
post,
read
the
other
people
that
are
on
that
post,
that
are
adults
that
are
bringing
their
young
kids.
S
Not
just
this
group
I
understand
that
their
every
situation
is
different,
read
those
posts
and
look
at
the
other
adult
parents
that
are
leaving
those
Parks,
because
those
comments
are
being
made
that
it's
their
kids,
that's
all
I'm
asking
I'm,
not
asking
or
blaming
or
anything
I,
just
really
feel
like.
You
really
do
need
to
look
at
this
because
I'm
telling
you
if
my
son
was
doing
this
it'd
be
DHS
called
on
me.
S
In
all
honesty,
the
way
I
feel
those
kids
aren't
given
a
shot,
because,
if
you're
letting
them
do
this
and
they're
keeping
that
behavior
they're
being
set
up
to
serve
time
later
on
they're,
not
getting
a
chance
either
to
learn
that
they
need
to
respect
and
to
abide
by
the
rules
and
the
laws
before
it's
too
late
for
them
and
then
they're
paying
behind
a
cell.
That's
just.
C
C
B
N
A
couple
of
quick
things
you
know
one
is
I
think
on
the
last
subject,
I
mean
the
message
is
clear:
that
Public
Safety
in
Austin
is
non-negotiable
and
I
know
you
know,
there's
individual
cases
that
we
can
and
can't
get
into,
but
know
you've
got
the
full
support
of
the
council
and
I'm
sure
the
mayor
as
well.
That
Public
Safety
is
non-negotiable
and
it's
something
we
take
very
seriously.
N
So
thank
you
for
speaking
up
two
other
quick
items
reminder
hunt
for
your
cure
is
on
Saturday,
so
if
you're
interested
in
getting
out
a
little
early,
pheasant
hunting
for
a
good
cause,
that's
Saturday
morning
or
afternoon,
and
then
finally
had
the
opportunity
to
participate
in
the
Coalition
of
Greater,
Minnesota
City's,
local
government,
Aid
and
local
tax
committee
meeting
on
Friday.
Obviously,
LGA
is
a
pretty
good
chunk
of
our
budget
and
so
from
an
Austin
perspective.
You
know
good
to
kind
of
make
sure
that
our
interests
are
represented
there.
N
You
know
I,
think
high
level
was
cgmc's.
Looking
at
you
know,
does
a
Formula
update,
make
sense
that
know
if
we're
fully
on
board
with
that,
but
there'll
be
some
additional
conversations
and
then
they'll
continue
to
advocate
for
ensuring
that
LGA,
you
know
continues
to
grow
as
inflation
type
grows,
so
they
will
continue
advocating
on
our
behalf
at
the
state
capitol
as
well
excellent.
A
I
would
just
give
a
thanks
to
all
those
who
have
donated
for
the
flower
program.
It
was
beautiful
season
of
flowers
maintained
by
our
park
and
rec
folks,
and
they
came
down
this
weekend
and
now
we
have
some
lovely
fall
Decor.
That
I
saw
the
chamber
and
discover
Austin
and
folks
putting
out
so
appreciate
that
we
continue
to
keep
downtown
looking
great
all
year.
Long
thanks,
Mike.
B
I,
too,
want
to
speak
on
the
park
thing.
Thank
you
very
much
for
coming
forward
and
I'm,
really
sorry
about
what
your
grandson
went
through.
We
all
do
agree
that
Public
Safety
is,
you
know,
number
one
for
us
so
and
I'm
glad
to
hear
through
a
lot
of
the
emails
and
messages
that
I
got
today,
that
people
are
forming
more
neighborhood
watch
type
things
and
I
think
that
that
is
really
important
too
so
that
neighborhoods
and
we
we
have
other
eyes
and
ears
out
there
when
when
the
police
can't
be
everywhere.
