A
A
A
A
Okay,
seeing
none
can
I
have
a
motion
to
approve
the
consent
agenda
as
presented
okay
motion
by
council
councilmember
bolan
second
by
council
member
matthew,
and
we
are
voting
right.
A
C
And
council
member
sorry
trustee
ward,
it
has
you
as
abstain.
D
A
A
A
All
second
okay
motion
by
trustee
bowen,
second,
by
trustee
emig.
A
Okay:
okay,
all
right
next
item
on
the
agenda
is
a
change
order
to
contract
with
start
excavating
for
parking
lot
improvements
and
recommend
that
the
change
order
for
the
parking
lot
improvement
in
the
amount
of
35
000
be
approved
and
the
resolution
be
adopted.
Town
supervisor
anything
you'd
like
to.
G
Sure
this
is
a
new
experience
for
me
to
work
on
this
kind
of
thing,
but
we
noted
in
your
memo
what
the
reasons
were
that
we
need
the
change
order,
and
this
is
for
the
north
side
of
the
parking
lot.
I
just
wanted
to
remind
the
trustees
that
the
bid
for
stark
was
181
000
and
some,
and
that
was
well
under
what
was
budgeted,
259
000
and
so
we're
still
with
this
change
order
under
budget
by
43
000
so
give
or
take
a
few
numbers.
A
J
A
So
it
looks
like
the
item
passes
no
nas
to
announce
next
item
on
the
agenda.
Is
our
report
by
elected
officials,
starting
with
township
supervisor,
skill,
rude.
G
A
Okay,
it
doesn't
like
look
like
we
have
any,
so
thank
you
very
much.
Next
is
township
assessor,
steve,
scutter,.
K
Good
evening
today
was
the
last
day
to
file
a
complaint
with
the
board
of
review.
K
We
got
several
complaints
this
year.
I'm
not
sure
what
the
total
tally
is.
We
still
get
emails,
we'll
still
get
some
more
through
the
probably
through
friday.
I
think
you
can
still
file
one
today
if
you
go
through
the
county's
website,
but
or
if
they're
in
the
mail
already
postmarked
today.
Otherwise
only
those
people
that
submitted
a
complaint
form
will
get
their
assessment
reviewed
again
for
2021.
All
the
rest
will
go
into
next
year's
assessments.
L
Thanks
steve,
I
got
a
bunch
of
businesses
that
reached
out
to
me
that
they
said
that
their
property
tax
assessment
for
their
properties
went
up
7.75,
and
if
could
you
just
kind
of
give
a
general
overview
of
how
often
businesses
are
assessed?
And
you
know
how
you
look
at
those
to
try
to
calculate
because
it
seemed
like
a
lot
of
them
were
downtown
buildings
that
all
went
hit
7.75.
K
We
I'm
gonna
speak
on
I'll,
speak
about
residential
properties
because
it's
a
larger
pool,
but
we
do
the
same
thing
in
residential
as
we
do
in
commercial
properties,
residential
we
go
by
neighborhood
commercial.
We
would
might
go
by
use
use
code,
what
they're
a
commercial
building
versus
a
storage,
warehouse
or
fact
industrial
those
might
get
adjusted
based
on
if
we
got
any
sales
over.
Maybe
we
use
a
three
year
time
period
to
make
adjustments
on
the
assessments.
K
If
the
assessments
are
lower
than
what
the
sales
prices
are
of
any
type
of
property,
then
we
would
make
an
adjustment
up
if
their
sales
on
the
businesses
were
lower
than
the
assessments
we
would
adjust
them
downward.
K
We've
seen
some
sales
over
the
over
the
city
that
suggested
that
we
were
assessing
too
low
on
to
market
value.
So
we
had
to
make
adjustments
up.
The
seven
percent
might
not
might
seem
high,
but
it
still
is
probably
lower
than
what
we
could
have
went.
We
tried
to
limit
how
much
we
went
up
according
to
the
department
of
revenue
we
have
to
assess
at
one
third
of
market
value.
K
So
that's
the
metrics
that
the
department
sets
up
for
us,
so
we
have
to
keep
in
sync
with
those,
so
downtown
seemed
a
little
low.
So
there
was
an
adjustment
of
point.
Seven
five
percent
was
that
you
said
yeah
yeah,
so
we
made
a
small
adjustment
there.
It
may
have
been
higher.
We
might
have
kept
it
at
that
amount.
A
N
Trusty
emig
yeah
just
a
quick
follow-up.
So
would
you
say
that
the
increase
was
primarily
due
to
the
increase
in
market
value,
correct,
okay,.
K
And
we
use
sales
price
as
a
a
describer
of
that
it's
not
necessarily
the
sale
price
of
one
individual
property,
it's
a
sale
price
of
several
properties
and
towards
their
assessment.
So
it's
it's
average
one.
One
property
is
the
market
value,
it's
all
properties.
At
the
same
time,.
A
C
Just
so,
everyone
is
aware
they
were
having
some
trouble
online
getting
into
the
virtual
meeting,
but
we've
resent
the
email
and
it
seems
like
people
are
coming
in
currently.
So,
if
you
hear
anything,
it
should
be
fine.
A
B

Public
comment
is
an
opportunity
for
speakers
to
provide
their
views
and
feedback
to
the
city
council.
It
is
also
an
opportunity
for
the
city
council
to
listen
and
hear
diverse
points
of
views
to
maximize
the
impact
of
public
comment
and
show
respect
for
the
expression
of
all
views.
Speakers
should
maintain
civility
and
focus
on
city
issues
that
includes
children.
A
R
Hi,
my
name
is
grant
jones
and
I've
been
a
member
of
this
community
for
my
entire
life.
I'm
here
today
to
speak
about
agenda
item
d.
That's
video
gaming
and
the
ordinance
you're
all
looking
at
want
to
be
clear.
I
actually
work
in
the
gaming
business
and
worked
for
the
local
company,
midwest,
electronics
and
I
have
for
the
last
10
years.
So
I
have
a
little
bit
of
knowledge
about
the
gaming
business.
R
But
what
I
want
to
talk
about
was
the
redevelopment
deal
more
commonly
known
as
lulu's
gaming,
cafe
that
you
guys
are
going
to
be
voting
on
tonight
and
who
it
affects
in
this
community
one
of
my
customers
and
that's
why
I'm
in
the
gaming
business.
R
So
I
have
a
little
bit
of
bias
but
heradura
mexican
restaurant
owned
by
armando
martinez,
and
he
couldn't
be
here
tonight
but
has
been
open
for
over
10
years-
full
service,
restaurant
and
applied
for
gaming
over
two
years
ago
and
has
been
patiently
waiting
for
his
turn
to
get
gaming
in
a
city
of
bloomington
license
with
this
redevelopment
deal.
If
it
is
approved,
they
will
jump
the
line
and
they
will
pass
armando
and
herrera
mexican
restaurant.
R
What
I'm
scared
of
is
what
kind
of
message
does
that
send
to
a
minority-owned
business
in
this
community
who's
been
here
operating
for
over
10
years?
What
does
that
say
when
they've
been
following
the
rules,
and
somebody
comes
in
from
out
of
town
and
does
a
deal
in
place
and
gets
to
jump
that
line
and
gets
to
break
those
rules?
I'm
scared.
R
It's
a
slippery
slope,
because
people
like
me
when
I
see
people
like
me,
people
in
the
gaming
business,
they
will
see
these
rules
and
they
will
try
to
take
advantage
of
these
and
where
does
where?
Does
it
stop?
How
far
do
we
push
the
goal
posts
so
far,
we
pushed
it
back.
Indian
purin
restaurant
grand
cafe
all
owned
by
minorities
in
this
community
that
have
been
here
and
lived
here,
and
so
this
this
lulu's
gaming
cafe,
will
get
a
jump
over
all
those
people
coming
up.
R
We
still
have
there's
still
three
more
locations:
four
more
locations
in
the
city
of
bloomington
that
are
going
to
apply
for
city
licenses
and
they've
been
here
they've
been
operating.
They
have
proven
that
they're
full
service,
restaurants
and
they'll
still
have
to
wait
in
line,
and
they
will
have
to
follow
these
rules.
So
when
you're
voting
today-
and
I
have
been
at
the
last
couple
meetings-
and
I
I'm
very
impressed
with
this
council-
the
thought-
the
thoughtfulness-
this
is
a
divisive
topic,
but
the
intelligent
conversation
that
has
surrounded
this.
R
So
I
do
applaud
you
all
for
taking
the
time
to
discuss
it.
Think
about
it.
Talk
to
different
people.
I
had
some
opportunity
to
talk
to
different
city
council
people
today,
and
I
appreciate
that
for
those
of
you
I
talked
to,
but
I
just
I
want
you
to
think
what
kind
of
message
does
that
send,
especially
for
you
know
a
minority-owned
business
in
this
community
that
somebody
can
come
in
caucasian
or
not,
but
he
just
gets
to
jump
the
line
because
he
did
a
deal
with
the
city
council.
R
C
S
Great
good
afternoon,
mayor
and
members
of
the
council,
I
am
calling
in
today,
as
a
resident
of
bloomington
and
as
the
former
representative
of
ward
6
on
the
bloomington
city
council,
to
express
my
tremendous
disappointment
in
the
handling
of
the
process
to
fill
the
ward
6
vacancy.
This
process
has
been
off
from
the
start.
Historically,
when
a
council
seat
has
been
vacated
past
mayors
have
sought
the
input
of
the
outgoing
representative
in
seeking
a
replacement.
S
I
won
my
seat
fair
and
square
in
2019
I
was
not
removed
from
my
seat.
I
lost
it
through
no
fault
of
my
own.
Nonetheless,
every
measure
has
been
taken
to
exclude
me
from
the
process
of
selecting
a
successor
to
represent
ward
6,
both
when
I
was
on
the
council
and
after
I'd
been
off
of
it.
That
to
me
is
really
unfair,
but
was
not
on
its
own
enough
of
a
reason
for
me
to
be
publicly
vocal
about
this
appointment,
though
mayor
malomway
didn't
want
me
personally
involved.
S
However,
over
the
past
several
weeks,
I
have
watched,
as
his
administration
have
backed
the
council
into
a
corner
by
running
down
the
clock
on
this
appointment,
as
he
told
levi
champion
that
he
would
be
nominated
and
then
took
it
back
as
he
recommended
his
own
personal
friend,
a
person
who
did
not
even
apply
for
the
position
and
the
incumbent
that
I
defeated
in
the
last
election
as
the
person
that
should
replace
me
and
now,
as
he
recommends,
a
person
who
is
the
radical
opposite
of
what
the
people
of
ward
6,
fairly
and
democratically
elected
in
2019,
for
appointment
to
the
seat
as
much
as
I
had
hoped
to
take
some
needed
time
away
from
the
world
of
politics.
S
S
They
voted
for
representation
that
looks
and
lives
like
them.
They
voted
for
a
representative
who
was
unapologetically
progressive,
who
pushed
for
accessible
government
that
prioritizes
people
in
the
greatest
need
and
who
fought
for
equity
and
justice
on
and
off
the
council,
and
you
sit
here
before
them
tonight,
offering
them
a
nominee
with
a
track
record
of
opposing
all
of
the
things
that
they
voted
for.
S
T
Yes,
I'm
david
long,
I'm
the
builder
representing
the
godfreys
on
their
variance
request,
and
I
just
wanted
to
state
at
the
last
variance
meeting
I
went
to.
It
was
completely
different
than
the
variance
meetings
I
had
been
to
in
the
past,
and
I've
been
in
business
for
over
40
years
and
it
didn't
feel
very
representative.
T
Of
the
citizenry,
it
felt
like
an
extension
of
the
city
staff
when,
when
they
had
their
meeting,
they
basically
said.
Okay.
This
does
not
follow
the
the
guidelines
of
the
the
building
codes
and
basically,
we
reject
your
variance.
We
request-
and
I
thought
that
was
the
whole
purpose.
T
We
knew
it
didn't
fit
the
guidelines,
that's
why
we
requested
a
variance
so
we've
reapplied
for
another
shot
through
the
city
council
which,
in
the
past,
when
I've
gotten
variances,
it's
always
been
through
the
city
council
and
I've
always
thought
that
it
was
very
fair,
because
these
are
representatives
of
the
people,
but
the
godfrey's
neighbors,
none
have
objected,
objected
to
their
request
for
their
variants
and
the
new
covered
porch.
T
If
we
went
within
the
guidelines
and
then
from
that,
you
take
away
the
front
and
back
wall
thicknesses,
and
that
leaves
you
with
a
room
of
approximately
ten
foot,
eight
inches,
which
is
not
very
functional
and
they
they'd
appre
appreciate
your
consideration
for
the
variance.
O
Hello,
pretty
much
everything
that
jen
carrillo
said
is
what
I
would
say,
but
I'm
just
going
to
see
how
it
feels
to
be
a
citizen
in
this
position,
and
I
one
of
two
things
came
to
mind.
I
was
thinking
either
the
mayor
is
trolling
us
with
this
pick
or
he
doesn't
mind,
taking
a
great
big
dump
on
democracy
and
placing
it
right
in
the
ward
6
seat.
Is
that
what
you
want?
Because
that's
how
people
that
I
talk
to
see
it
and
I
mean
at
first
I
thought
this
has
to
be
a
joke.
O
I
mean
we
have
people
here
that
have
came
to
talk
about.
You
know
the
flooding
of
their
homes
and
looking
to
the
city
and
we've
seen
how
everyone's
voted
right-
and
I
don't
know-
I
guess
the
words
of
my
favorite
comedian,
george
carlin,
I'd
like
to
tell
everyone
here.
They
don't
give
a
about
you.
C
G
U
Okay,
I'm
here
to
speak
on
the
issue
of
the
ward
6
appointment.
U
What
is
being
done
with
ward
6
is
a
shameful
and
pathetic
attempt
to
overrule
the
will
of
the
voters
using
the
notions
of
consensus
and
agreement
where
they
don't
belong.
To
ignore
the
obvious
thing.
Voters
wanted
the
voters
of
ward
6
made
very
clue
very
clear
who
they
wanted
representing
them,
and
the
mayor
has
chosen
to
ignore
that
in
the
name
of
consensus,
the
voters
made
it
crystal
clear
that
they
didn't
want
a
centrist.
They
wanted
a
progressive.
U
The
right
thing
to
do
would
be
to
pick
a
progressive,
not
someone
who
goes
against
the
very
will
that
the
voters
voted
for
they
didn't
want
someone
the
entire
council
likes.
So
what
what
sense
does
it
make
to
use
that
as
a
qualifier?
Now
it
doesn't
you
just
don't
care
about
the
will
of
the
voters
and
you're
making
it
perfectly
clear.
I
hope
our
city
council
will
respect
the
will
of
ward
6
and
vote
no
on
this
appointment.
V
Hi,
I'm
matt
tosco,
I'm
here
to
talk
about
the
word
six
appointment,
I'm
going
to
jump
right
to
it.
Let's
look
at
the
two
people
mayor
milanway
has
thrown
out
there
other
than,
of
course,
karen,
who
that
had
to
have
been
a
bad
joke.
Both
of
them
are
business
owner
owners
downtown
bloomington,
business
owners.
That
has
to
be
the
tiniest,
the
smallest
demographic
out
of
the
entire
ward
6
population,
but
they're
top
of
his
list.
V
Ward,
6
elected
a
socialist,
they
elected
a
black
lives
matter
pro
pot
socialist,
to
represent
them
in
a
free
and
fair
election,
and
you've
done
nothing
but
make
a
joke
of
that.
You've
done
nothing
but
disregard
the
will
of
the
voters
throughout
this
entire
process.
It
should
not
matter
what
any
of
these
other
council
people
think
about
the
ward
6
seat,
none
of
them.
This
should
be
about
the
continuation
of
the
representation
that
was
freely
and
fairly
elected.
The
people
of
ward
6
will
have
a
chance
to
choose
different
representation
in
the
election
in
2023.
V
Of
ward
6
wanted,
listen
up
is
a
travesty,
it
is
a
mockery
of
democracy
and
our
entire
representative
system.
Yes,
sir,
do
you
want
to
say
something.
A
V
C
E
E
W
Yes,
my
name
is
asar
kazmi
and
I
have
an
issue.
I
am
not
going
to
speak
on
the
ward
6
issue
because
I
live
in
normal,
but
we
are
part
of
bloomington
normal
living
in
sometime
normal
sometime
bloomington
for
last
32
years,
and
I
had
a
business
now
I
don't
own
the
business.
So
I
have
several
dental
properties
in
bloomington
normal,
and
my
comment
or
request
is
about
the
water
department
of
bloomington
and-
and
I
will
add
the
same
thing
with
the
city
of
normal.
W
What
happened
because
of
pandemic
you
before
before
pandemic?
Or
now
you,
the
city,
the
city
of
the
water
department,
sent
a
notice
of
termination
after
two
months
of
unpaid
will,
and
I
get
the
copy
of
that,
but
it's
a
city
ordinance
or
the
state
law.
You
stop
terminating
the
water,
you
know
shutting
the
water
and
stop
sending
a
termination
notice.
So
what
happened
one
and
a
half
year
the
tenant
did
not
pay
the
bill
and
with
the
penalty
and
everything
the
bill
with
one
of
my
property
is
more
than
seven
thousand
dollars.
W
So
how
I'm
going
to
recover?
Why
I'm
punished
when
the?
When
the
elected
company
or
the
gas
company
they
follow
whose
account
is
being
tenant,
so
why
I
am
punished
why
this
water
department
follow
the
same
thing.
What
is
there
and
second
question-
is
this?
Seven
thousand
dollar
will
take
me
three
years
to
recover.
W
It's
not
very,
you
know
lucrative
business,
but
we
are
paying
too
much
taxes
for
all
the
properties
to
city
and
bloomington.
We
generated
we
created
a
lot
of
job.
Several.
You
know
multiple
jobs
in
this
community
when
I
had
the
business,
so
we
made
our
career,
we
made
this
our
home,
but
this
time
I
feel
I
got
punished
because
of
none
of
my
fault.
W
I
was
never
notified
that
this
bill
is
seven
thousand
or
six
thousand
or
five
thousand
now,
next
day,
before
the
july
no
november,
first
they're
gonna,
second
they're
gonna
shut
off
the
water,
but
if
the
tenant
leaves
then
I
owe
the
bill.
What's
my
fault
in
this
one?
That's
my
you
know
question
is
so
second
question
is:
do
I
have
any
relief
because
of
pandemic?
This
happened
because
of
pandemic,
I'm
not
totally
blaming
on
water
department
or
city.
C
C
C
X
Hey
thanks,
so
I'm
also
here
to
speak
about
the
appointment
of
a
new
council
member
to
represent
ward
six,
and
I,
in
addition
to
clearly
quite
a
few
other
people,
are
pretty
disappointed
to
hear
about
this
nomination
for
d
urban,
and
I
ask
that
council
members
vote
no
on
this
appointment.
Avoca.
One
of
the
reasons
folks
didn't
want
to
see
you
become
mayor
was
your
neutrality
when
you
voted
as
a
council
member
and
your
consistent
lack
of
decision
making
and
leadership
skills,
and
this
scenario
is
only
further
proving
that
to
be
true.
X
It's
it's
a
joke
honestly,
like
you're,
a
joke.
Jen
did
the
right
thing,
notifying
the
city
of
their
move
out
of
ward
6,
and
you
are
supposed
to
represent
the
people
and
the
people
of
ward
6
chose
a
progressive
voice
in
2019,
and
they
deserve
to
have
someone
with
at
least
similar
values
to
them.
Taking
that
position
encourage
council
members
to
vote
no
on
d.
Thank
you.
C
All
right,
we
have
two
more
it'll,
be
kelly
tyson
and
then,
after
that,
luisa
gomez,.
Y
I'm
also
speaking
on
ward
6.,
former
council
member
carrillo
was
elected
over
karen
schmidt,
an
incumbent
who
held
the
seat
for
decades,
especially
in
local
elections.
People
sometimes
tend
to
vote
for
names.
They
know
and
are
familiar
with.
It's
not
easy
to
unseat
someone
who's
held
their
position
for
so
long,
but
carrillo
did
it.
They
did
it
by
engaging
in
listening
to
the
people
of
ward
six
and
the
people
found
a
candidate.
Y
Y
Y
Y
Y
Z
Luisa
gomez,
october
22nd
wglt
ran
an
article
announcing
the
mayor's
decision
to
present
d
urban
as
the
word
six
alder
person,
while
it
appears
to
be
the
consensus
that
she
is
highly
favored
to
gain
the
majority
of
the
council's
vote.
I
am
here
again
this
evening
to
share
empirical
data
that
placing
her
in
this
role
is
counter-intuitive
to
ward
6,
specifically
area
code
61701
in
2019
mclean
county
conducted
a
community
health
needs
assessment.
Z
This
was
a
joint
collaboration
between
advocate
broman,
which
is
carl
chestnut
health
systems,
mclean
county
health
department,
osf
and
osf
healthcare
in
2019,
bloomington
617017,
zip
code
with
36
197
residents
is
listed
as
number
one
with
the
highest
socioeconomic
index
needs
values.
Those
are
poverty,
education,
unemployment,
occupation,
income
and
language.
Two
other
zip
codes,
61704
and
61705
are
both
ranked
number
one
as
having
the
lowest
socioeconomic
needs
in
2019.
Z
The
racial
demographics
are
as
follows:
81.66,
white,
7.7,
7.73
black
2.762
are
more
racist
and
5.11
hispanic
or
latinx.
According
to
this
data,
there
should
be
at
least
one
black
alder
person
on
the
city
council
represented
I
identify
as
two
or
more
racists.
My
father
is
puerto
rican.
My
mother
was
black
when
she
was
here
with
us.
I
offered
this
breakdown
to
lend
insight
as
to
how
the
city
of
bloomington
is
lacking
representation
of
15
of
its
residents.
This
is
excluding
the
city
mayor
who
does
not
have
voting
rights
unless
there
is
a
tie.
Z
Z
Z
Today,
each
one
of
you
have
a
choice
to
make
and
you
each
will
use
your
voting
power
and
I
am
not
making
a
threat.
I
am
making
a
promise.
The
city
is
watching
each
and
every
one
of
you-
and
this
is
what
I
believe,
I
believe
in
voter
education
and,
I
believe
in
voter
mobilization
and
according
to
stacey
abrams,
I'd
like
to
close
with
this.
Our
ability
to
participate
in
government
to
elect
our
leaders
and
to
improve
our
lives
is
contingent
upon
our
ability
to
assess
the
ballot.
Z
J
A
Okay,
so
the
next
item
on
the
agenda
is
our
ward,
six
appointment,
so
consideration
action
to
approve
the
appointment
of
the
urban
to
serve
as
council
member
for
ward
six,
as
requested
by
me,
and
I
want
to
share
a
few
words
before
we
move
on
to
to
voting
and
other
comments
by
council
members.
But
today
I
have
the
pleasure
of
nominating
the
urban
to
fill
the
ward
6
vacancy.
A
As
you
all
know,
the
seat
has
been
open
since
august
31st.
It's
been
a
longer
process
than
I
would
have
liked,
but
I
do
think
the
process
in
itself
has
given
me,
council,
members
and
the
community
an
opportunity
to
to
listen
carefully,
evaluate
the
candidates
and
share
views
about
the
candidates.
So
I
want
to
thank
everyone
on
the
council,
but
also
in
the
community,
who
has
shared
thoughts
with
me.
A
A
For
one
she's,
a
small
business
owner
she's
also
very
involved
in
the
downtown
business
community,
she's,
a
member
of
a
west
side,
neighbor
group
and
regular
attendee
at
those
meetings
I'm
fairly
involved
there
she's
also
involved
in
the
west
bloomington
revitalization
project,
she's
a
graduate
of
bloomington
101
our
educational
program
about
our
various
departments.
A
She
was
also
a
member
of
the
connect
transit
work
group
and
also
a
member
of
the
cannabis
task
force
over
the
years.
She's
been
a
regular
attendee
at
council
meetings
and
when
commenting
on
cd
issues,
you
know
whether
you
know
one
would
agree
or
disagree
with
her.
I've
always
found
her
to
be
very
respectful
and
someone
you
can
share
opinions
with.
A
Other
thing
that
I
wanted
to
mention
there's
a
couple
other
things
actually
that
ms
urban
has
demonstrated
an
interest
in
the
affairs
of
the
city
and
also
a
commitment
to
learn
about
the
city
and
serve
the
city.
A
A
A
So
with
that
said,
I
will
entertain
a
motion
to
approve
miss
urban's
appointment
as
council
member
for
ward
6.
A
Motion
by
council
member
bolin,
second
by
council
member
crumpler
and
is
there
discussion.
L
Thanks
mayor,
so
I've
known
dee
for
a
few
years,
I,
like
the
I
respect
the
I
think
that
she's
a
good
small
business
owner.
I
think
that
that
some
of
the
comments
that
have
been
made
about
her
are
incorrect
and
disrespectful,
and
that
being
said
right
now,
I
am
not
going
to
vote
for
dee
no
offense
cud.
I
I
think
that
you're
great,
but
I
don't
think
that
it
is
what
ward
six
was
looking
for
right
now
and
I
don't
know
that
it's
the
best
path
to
take.
D
D
Some
time
ago,
someone
who
I'm
close
with
told
me
that
the
reason
that
they
voted
for
you
mayor
was
because
they
had
a
conversation
with
someone
wearing
a
t-shirt
in
favor
of
you
and
when
they
asked.
Why
should
I
vote
for
for
him
for
mayor?
D
They
were
told
because
he
goes,
he
does
what
he
says
he's
going
to
do,
and
I
think
that
we
saw
at
the
beginning
of
this
process
a
few
weeks
months
ago,
weeks
ago,
a
process
that
was
not
followed,
and
I
think,
when
you
put
forward
a
name-
and
you
said
that,
then
that
you
were
trying
to
seek
as
broad
a
consensus
as
possible
and
then
pulled
that
name.
I
think
that
that
was
going
back
on
on
your
word
and
I
I
think
that
was
was
uncalled
for
and
damaging
to
the
trust.
D
I
I
don't
believe
that
there
will
be
as
broad
a
consensus
as
you
are
looking
for,
and
I
don't
think
that
there
is
enough
of
a
consensus
to
to
be
able
to
to
vote.
Yes,
it's
nothing
personal
and
I
will
I
will
work
with
whoever
is
chosen
but
mayor.
I
think
if,
if
need
be,
you're
going
to
have
to
break
the
tie
and
stand
by
what
you
do.
AA
Thank
you
mayor,
so
thank
you.
I
thank
miss
urban
for
applying
and
for
involvement
in
the
community.
I
thank
you
for
talking
with
me
on
friday.
After
I
heard
of
her
nomination
through
the
grapevine.
AA
AA
Certainly
the
voters
can
decide
in
2023
if
they
want
a
more
conservative
council,
member
and
I'll
just
kind
of
add
this.
I
know
this
was
mentioned
at
a
meeting
a
couple
weeks
ago
that
we
should
follow
the
mayor's
prerogative
on
this,
but
I
would
just
mention
that
I
was
willing
to
follow
the
mayor's
prerogative
on
another
appointment
and
others
weren't
at
that
time,
and
that's
how
we
get
to
this
point
right
now,
so
I
will
be
voting
you
know.
Thank
you.
N
N
Even
so,
whatever
happens
today,
I
I
will
absolutely
work
with
the
person
who
is
duly
appointed,
and
I
do
think
it's
it's
unfortunate
that
the
process
has
been
this
challenging
and
would
also
echo
a
lot
of
what
older
woman
ward
said
earlier.
Thank
you.
H
Yes,
I
would
just
like
to
say
that
a
lot
of
the
information
that
is
floating
around
in
the
public
is
not
accurate,
and
it's
unfortunate
that
the
more
you
say
something
the
more
people
believe
it.
It
is
not
true.
The
information
that
has
been
put
out
and
a
lot
of
the
information
that
has
been
put
out
was
what
I
would
call
private
conversation.
H
A
J
AB
So
absolutely
mayor,
thank
you,
for
you
know,
taking
the
time
and
having
a
lot
of
conversation
with
me,
and
and
thank
you
to
all
of
you
that
reached
out
and
had
conversation
with
me
and,
and
I
appreciate
the
opportunity
to
even
stand
and
say
I'm
willing
to
serve
my
community,
and
I
was
able
to
sit
here
and
listen
to
public
calming,
and
I
wasn't
really
going
to
have
a
lot
to
say
because
I
tend
to
be
a
little
quieter
than
I
tend
to
be
voiceful,
but
there
is
something
I
do
want
to
say,
and
that
is
as
if
I,
if,
if
you
so
choose
to
say,
okay,
do
you
we
want
you
to
step
up
and
be
at
this
place.
AB
I
need
to
be
a
voice
for
the
people
of
ward
6,
no
matter
whose
voice
that
that
is,
and
that's
the
heart
of
me
is
to
be
that
voice
to
represent
those
people
we're
without
representation
in
ward,
6.,
11
of
us
stepped
up
and
said:
we'd
do
it,
and
you
know
the
mayor
said
out
of
those
11
d.
I
would
like
to
talk
to
you
about
doing
that.
Quite
frankly,
if,
like
I
had
like
invoca
said
if
he
had
picked
somebody
else,
I
would
not
have
been
offended.
AB
AB
Jen
carrillo
has
big
shoes
to
fill.
I
would
say,
we're
all
hard-pressed
to
find
someone
to
fill
the
shoes
of
jen
curio,
but
if
that's
what
the
voice
of
the
people
of
ward
6
says,
then
that's
the
voice
that
I
have
to
listen
to
as
well.
So
I
just
give
you
the
opportunity
to
think
about
it
that
as
well
as
you
place
your
voice,
your
vote,
you
know
because
these
people
that
say
they
want
jen
korea
represented
my
job-
is
to
do
what
they
say
not
to
do
what
somebody
else
says.
AB
So
I
appreciate
the
opportunity
to
stand
up
and
just
kind
of
put
my
heart
on
my
on
my
sleeve
and
let
you
know
that
where
I
stand
is
with
my
people
in
ward
6.,
those
of
us
that
are
a
flat
tire
away
from
poverty.
Those
of
us
that,
like
luis,
has
said
the
demographics
say,
you
know
we
need
representation.
AB
That's
where
I'm
at
this
is
not
a
political
game.
For
me,
this
is
about
these
people
right
here,
whether
they
like
me
or
not,
it's
irrelevant.
I
like
them
because
they
live
in
my
ward.
So
I
wish
you
luck
as
you
flip
your
flipper
buttons
and
make
your
choice
and
jen
carrillo
if
you're
listening.
I
appreciate
the
fact
that
she
stood
up
for
our
people
for
the
two
years
that
she
did.
AB
C

So

you'll
just

A
Next
item
on
the
agenda
is
regular
agenda
item
9a
administrative
review
of
a
zoning
board
of
appeals
decision
to
deny
a
petition
for
a
variance
to
allow
a
two
and
a
half
foot
reduction
in
the
required
rear
setback
for
the
property
located
at
3202
cave
creek
road
case
z1821,
as
filed
and
requested
by
the
petitioner
and
action
on
an
ordinance
either
approving
or
denying
the
variance,
as
requested
by
the
economic
and
community
development
department,
and
I'm
going
to
turn
it
over
to
city
manager.
Greece,.
M
AC
AC
AC
AC
Therefore,
the
appeal
is
presented
to
the
city
council
and
they
are
asked
to
make
their
decision
based
on
the
record
this.
This
is
not
a
re-hearing,
so
no
new
evidence
is
taken.
AC
J
A
AD
I
believe,
because
this
doesn't
relate
to
this
specific
property
that
this
question
will
be
allowed.
I
I
hope
so
and
please
correct
me
if
I'm
out
of
line
it's
my
belief
that
variances
such
as
this
are
granted
with
some
regularity.
AC
I
don't
have
a
specific
list
of
the
previous
ones
that
have
been
allowed.
However,
they,
the
the
board,
was
asked
to
to
review
based
on
the
standards,
and
in
this
case
it
was
simply
found
that
the
standards
were
not
met.
So
whether
or
not
it
was
a
stricter
review,
you
know,
based
on
the
the
testimony
and
the
the
information
given
to
them,.
AC
AC
If
it's
something
that
should
be
granted
and
those
things
that
I
had
mentioned,
making
sure
that
you
know
like.
I
said
that
it's
it's
almost
that
fairness
or
that,
like
you,
say
that
that
sort
of
that
test,
giving
some
reason
for
the
the
board
to
be
able
to
approve
it.
So
that
is
still
fair,
like
I
said,
like
the
big
one
being,
it's
not
a
special
privilege,
you're,
not
interfering
with
the
character
of
all
of
those
things
that
are
mentioned.
J
AA
Yes,
I
would
have
a
comment,
but
would
first
like
to
move
to
deny
the
request
for
appeal.
AA
A
AA
So,
just
just
so
I
understand
here
so
we
we
would
have
to
determine
as
a
city
council
that
all
the
five
requirements
have
been
met.
Correct.
AC
Yes,
and
and
specifically
because
it's
a
review
of
the
record
did
the
do
you
feel
that
the
zoning
board
of
appeals
made
the
correct
decision
based
on
what
was
made
before
them.
So
it's
almost
like.
We
have
our
attorney
here,
but
it's
almost
like
it's
a
review
of
the
process
versus
the
try
again
for
a
different
answer.
AA
AE
Right,
that's
correct,
you're
supposed
to
look
at
the
standards
and
see
if
the
record
supports
those
standards
and
if
you
think
that
they
that
the
record
does
support
those
standards,
then
you
would
be
finding
that
the
zoning
board
erroneously
did
not
find
that
or,
alternatively,
you
could
look
at
it
and
say
yeah.
I
agree
with
the
zoning
board,
I'm
looking
at
these
standards
and
there's
you
know
things
in
the
there's,
nothing
in
the
record,
maybe
to
support
a
couple
of
them,
and
thus
you
uphold
the
decision
of
the
zoning
board.
AA
Okay,
one
of
the
so
I
don't
think
the
standards
have
been
met,
and
I
would
just
note
in
particular
what
we
have
of
the
notes.
There
is
a
question
of
the
contractor.
AA
I
think
who
was
presenting
it
for
the
homeowner
is,
is
if
plans
could
be
changed
and
and
and
rather
than
saying,
if
they
could
be
changed,
they
said
hey,
let's,
we
just
want
to
go
for
the
original
design
and
I
do
believe
the
staff
found
that,
in
addition,
measuring
10
and
a
half
feet
by
16,
feet
could
be
built
and
there
were
a
yard
without
a
variance
and
so
and
also
I
just
kind
of
just
to
mention.
You
know
this
is
recommended
by
staff
and
and
but
for
one
person.
AA
Basically,
I
think
I
think
one
person
abstained
and
then
one
other
member
was
missing.
It
would
never
come
to
us
right
so
so
we
have
four
people
that
found
that
it
didn't
meet
the
criteria,
so
I
don't
see
any
reason
to
change
it.
A
AD
J
AD
Okay
and
the
plot
that
we
were
given
to
look
at
appeared
that
there
were,
you
know,
trees
and
screening
between
the
neighbors
toward
the
back,
such
that
there
wouldn't
even
be
even
visibility
of
the
deck
being
replaced
with
the
sun
room.
AC
Yes,
it's
actually
slightly
smaller,
but
the
difference
is
that
the
deck
but
that
can
encroach
into
the
required
yard.
But
when
it's
a
structure
it
cannot,
it
needs
to
meet
the
setback,
requirements
of
the
principal
structure.
I
Thank
you
mayor
the
the
builder
and
the
person
making
this
appeal
for
this
property.
They
were
aware
of
the
standards
when
they
when
they
wanted
to
do
this
project.
Correct.
I
Thanks
you
know,
and
I
I
guess
I
I
want
to
agree
with
council
member-
I
mean
with
jeff
here
overturning
the
zoning
appeal
board
when
the
vote
was
four
to
zero.
Against
seems
to
me
to
be,
I
see
no
reason
to
overrule
this
k
overrule
in
this
case.
I
think
it
looks
like
to
me
the
decision
to
deny
the
variance
was
the
right
thing
to
do,
and
I
plan
to
deny
it
as
well.
Thank
you.
N
Emig
yeah.
Thank
you
mayor.
I
mean,
and
I
just
want
to
reiterate
too,
that
we're
we're
making
a
judgment
on
the
process
and
how
the
clearly
the
zoning
board
adhered
to
the
standard
that
is
set
by
code
and
if,
in
the
future
we
want
to
revisit
said
code.
That's
that's
something
different,
but
for
this
vote
we're
just
looking
to
see
that
the
process
was
followed.
H
A
H
J
AE
Yes,
I
I
think
the
motion
council
crime
council
member
crable
was
making
was
the
the
first
option,
which
is
to
uphold
the
zoning
board
decision
and
approve
an
ordinance
denying
the
petition
for
the
variance.
A
That's
good
thanks
for
the
clarification
council,
member
monthly.
AD
AD
AD
AF
Just
one
comment
is
sitting
at
this
process:
it
feels
kind
of
pointless
to
be
honest,
with
the
way
we're
set
up
to
you
can't
make
any
judgments
based
on
the
data
you
just
have
to
judge
the
process,
even
though
other
people's
use
of
the
process
was
opinion
based,
so
it
it
feels
kind
of
like
a
pointless
situation
here.
AF
AE
AE
Then
it's
your
job
to
say,
look:
zoning
board.
I
think
you
got
it
wrong
and
you
overturned.
If
you
look
at
the
evidence-
and
you
say
no-
they
got
it
right.
Then
you
then
you
uphold
the
zoning
board
decision,
so
I
I
think
maybe
the
process
idea
might
have
thrown
off
a
little
bit.
You're,
really
looking
at
the
facts
that
were
presented
at
the
hearing
and
seeing
whether
you
think
the
zoning
board
made
the
right
decision
or
the
wrong
decision.
A
A
M
AE
Thank
you,
city
manager,
a
couple
of
minor
updates
in
this
document.
Since
the
last
time
it
was
brought
before
the
council,
based
on
previous
discussions
by
the
council,
language
was
added
allowing
a
compensation
waiver.
If
the
council
determines
that
the
alley
vacation
is
in
the
best
interest
of
the
public
that
the
alley
serves,
no
public
purpose
and
the
alley
vacation
will
reduce
city
maintenance,
expenses
and
resources.
AE
So
in
the
future,
the
council
would
have
the
ability
in
situations
to
say
I
agree.
We
don't
need
compensation
in
this
case,
because
really
it's
in
the
public
interest
to
vacate
this
alley.
Other
proposed
changes
in
this
draft.
We
clean
up
some
language
regarding
the
appraisal
process
and
we
also
clarify
that
compensation
may
come
in
in
other
forms,
besides
your
typical
money
value,
for
example,
that
it
could
be
an
exchange
of
real
or
personal
property.
AE
One
of
the
things
I
think
it's
been
talked
about
at
the
council
level.
I
think
it's
also
been
discussed
at
the
staff
level
is
sometimes
there
might
be
a
situation
where
somebody
is
vacating
a
street
or
alley
and
that's
a
brick
streeter
alley
and
we,
the
city,
could
actually
use
those
bricks,
and
so
maybe
the
compensation
would
come
in
the
form
of
removing
those
bricks
and
donating
those
bricks
to
the
city.
Now
in
the
sometimes
that's
feasible.
Sometimes
it's
not.
AE
A
Okay,
thank
you
jeff.
Is
there
a
motion
one
way
or
the
other
before
discussion?
What
would
you
like
to
discuss
prior.
A
H
I
think
I
had
a
discussion
brief
discussion
with
mr
jurgens
about
the
eav,
and
I
guess
the
city
currently
uses
eav
of
the
adjoining
properties
which
are
developed
and
I'm
the
way
I
look
at
it
is
is
that
this
alley
is
not
really
developed
other
than
asphalt.
H
AE
Only
and
so
kind
of
a
default
formula
is
taking
the
assessed
value
of
the
adjoining
land
and
then
dividing
that
by
the
square
footage
and
then
multiplying
that
by
the
square,
footage
of
what's
being
abandoned,
and
so
you
know
once
that's
vacated
and
belongs
to
that
adjoining
land.
Then
it
does,
you
know,
arguably
become
developed
property
or
if
it's
not
developed,
it's
you
know
it's
the
same.
AE
AE
You
know
this
other
value
and
then
the
council
can
consider
that
as
well.
So
the
the
assess,
the
adjoining
value
of
the
land,
only
was
kind
of
the
base
formula
to
figure
out
a
starting
number.
If
people
don't
want
to
go
to
an
appraisal.
H
Okay
and
the
only
other
comment
I
would
like
to
to
make
about
waving
compensation,
I
think
it's
valuable
to
give
the
com
well,
it's
absolutely
valuable
and
necessary
to
give
the
council
some
flexibility,
but
when
I
think
of
public
purpose,
I
think
the
vacation
of
the
alley
that
we
did
a
year
or
two
ago
where
it
was
associated
with
the
east
view
church
ellie
to
add
extra
perking
for
a
youth
center
in
ward
7.
AE
Yes,
and
I
I
think
that
that
becomes
a
determination
for
the
council
for
the
council
to
determine
whether,
if
somebody
brings
forward
and
says
I,
I
think
I
should
not
have
to
pay
compensation
in
this
case,
they're
going
to
have
to
make
the
case
as
to
why
it's
a
public
purpose
or
not,
and
you
know
at
that
point
the
council
can
decide.
You
know
look.
This
is
purely
all
private
here,
you're,
not
meeting
the
public
purpose
or
you
can
say
maybe
it
is
a
non-profit
coming
forward
or
you
know
some
other.
AE
L
I
just
wanted
to
make
the
point
that
churches
are
private
organizations
too
thanks.
A
Okay,
the
item
passes
are
no
nice
to
announce
next
item
on
the
agenda
is
item
9c
consideration
and
action
on
an
ordinance
approving
the
vacation
of
an
alley
between
lot,
eight
of
mcdowell's
subdivision
and
lot
four
of
jb
stevenson
subdivision,
which
will
vacate
an
alley
between
508
and
514.
East
jackson
street,
as
requested
by
the
public
works
department,
see
you
manager,
gleason.
M
Thank
you
mayor
and
council.
Public
works
director
is
going
to
comment
to
this,
but
this
also
is
the
item
that
I
had
commented
to
previously
that
came
before
council
a
couple
of
meetings
ago.
I
think
the
original
ask
of
the
applicant
or
the
requester
was
to
transfer
at
no
cost.
The
dollar
amount
was
9.
M
000
is
the
number
that
was
discussed
at
the
last
council
meeting
in
between
that
time,
and
now
the
requester
got
a
an
appraisal
of
the
property,
and
I
believe
that
dollar
amount
now
stands
at
four
thousand
dollars
and
staff
is
recommending
council
approval,
kevin.
Q
Thank
you,
city
manager,
and
that
is
absolutely
correct.
This
came
before
you
initially
as
back
in
august
with
public
hearing
and
the
direction
was
to
go
back
and
work
with
the
petitioner.
He
did
get
mi
a
certified
appraisal.
Q
Staff
has
reviewed
it
finds
it
is
reasonable
and
so
is
suggesting
tonight
that
the
four
doubt
four
thousand
dollars
compensation
that
he
has
offered
he's
already.
Given
a
check,
be
accepted
and
the
alley
would
be
vacated
so
here
to
answer
any
questions
you
might
have.
M
Thank
you,
mayor
and
council
before
I
turn
this
over
to
corporation
council.
This
also
is
an
item
that
was
tabled
a
couple
of
meetings
ago,
and
then
we
tabled
at
one
additional
meeting
coming
back
before
council
this
evening,
with
the
recommendation
of
staff.
AE
AE
This
is
to
help
avoid
creating
a
unintentional
black
market.
Making
a
video
gaming
license.
You
know
kind
of
a
commodity
within
the
community.
We
do
allow
transfers
if
somebody
is
moving
locations.
You
know
that
is
allowed
under
our
code
or
if,
if
I've
got
a
business
with
a
video
gaming
license
and
I'm
selling
it
to
deputy
city
manager
tyus,
those
transfers
are
allowed
as
well.
AE
What
we're
cleaning
up
in
the
language
is
to
stop
me
having
a
video
gaming
license,
and
maybe
it's
not
performing
very
well
and
charging
a
premium
to
somebody
else
to
buy
that
license.
So
that's
that's
one
portion
of
this
ordinance
amendment
the
other,
is
to
provide
a
clear
path
for
approval
when
a
video
gaming
license
is
part
of
a
development
agreement
or
annexation
agreement.
AE
We
received
feedback
in
from
the
last
council
meeting
as
the
city
or
last
time
this
was
discussed
and
clarified
in
the
ordinance
that
the
council
must
first
vote
to
approve
the
development
or
annexation
agreement
that
contains
the
video
gaming
license.
It
was
implied
before
now
it's
it's
kind
of
crystal
clear.
It
also
clarifies
that
these
licenses
will
run
separate
and
parallel
from
the
other
video
gaming
licenses.
AE
So
right
now
there
is
a
cap
on
video
gaming
licenses
of
60..
However,
there
could
be
situations
where
there
is
a
development
agreement
or
an
annexation
agreement.
Typically,
this
is
basically
new
development
to
the
city.
So
it's
not
a
a
place.
That's
already
located
within
the
you
know,
city,
but
it's
it's
being
redeveloped
property,
that's
being
redeveloped.
AE
The
council
would
decide
this
redevelopment
is
going
to
bring
so
much
benefit
potentially
to
the
council
or
to
the
city
that
it's
going
to
also
allow
a
video
gaming
license
that
would
be
within
contained
within
the
agreement.
It
would
be
voted
on
and
approved
by
the
city
council,
a
public
meeting
so
completely
transparent
and
would
would
basically
just
the
other
provision
basically
just
makes
this
path
more
clear
in
our
city
code.
A
Okay,
thank
you.
Are
there
questions
first,
or
is
there
a
motion
one
way
or
the
other.
A
Okay
motion
by
councilman
crumpler
second
by
member
matthew,
discussion,
council
member
monty.
AD
To
say
that
contracted
establishments
license
shall
run
separate
from
and
parallel
to,
the
number
of
licenses
contained
herein
in
section
3a
essentially
removes
the
cap
on
video
gaming.
It
allows
the
opportunity
for
the
city
to
at
their
discretion
with
council.
Approval,
however,
is
shared
at
the
last
meeting.
AD
That
said,
the
prior
council
under
tremendous
amount
of
discussion
placed
a
cap
for
video
gaming
at
60
and
we're
now
effectively
removing
that
cap.
This
is
also
a
regressive
form
of
taxation
that
provides
no
public
good
and
there's
a
litany
of
reading
that
one
can
do
to
understand
the
social
ills
associated
with
video
gaming
and
gambling
addiction.
I
will
be
voting
no
toward
this
and
I
have
tremendous
empathy
as
well
for
the
people
who
are
in
queue
to
wait
their
place
following
the
city's
transparent
process
for
us
to
then
create
a
process.
AD
That
is
cloaked,
I
guess,
for
lack
of
a
better
word
based
on
confidential
discussions
that
might
be
going
on
with
developers.
I
don't
think
it's
appropriate
and
I
think
it
sets
up
the
opportunity
for
more
and
more
organizations
to
come
in
the
back
way
to
say
make
me
a
deal
I'll.
Do
this
deal
if
you'll
give
me
a
terminal
license,
I
just
don't
think
it's
appropriate.
I
don't
think
it's
in
the
best
interest
of
our
community.
A
Yeah,
thank
you,
council,
member
matthew
and
then
ward.
L
Thanks
mayor,
so
I
was
part
of
the
original
council
that
put
the
cap
in
place.
If
I
had
my
brothers,
the
council
before
me
would
have
never
voted
to
allow
video
gambling
in
bloomington
to
start
with.
However,
they
opened
that
pandora's
box
and
you
know
johnny,
and
I
thought
that
by
putting
a
cap
on
gambling
in
town,
we
could
stem
some
of
the
problems,
because
I
I
do
agree-
and
I
have
had
family
members
that
have
been
negatively
impacted
by
gambling
addiction.
L
L
If
that's
what
they
want
to
do,
I
think
it's
a
you
know
it's
it's
a
lot
of
folks
that
are
very
bad
at
statistics
that
participate
in
this,
but
but
what
we
did
by
putting
a
cap
in
place
is
we
created,
haves
and
have
nots
within
our
establishments
in
town,
and
we
have
that
queue
now
of
people
who
the
the
businesses
that
have
gambling
licenses
have
a
completely
different
valuation
when
they
go
to
sell
than
the
businesses
that
don't,
and
I
think
that
that
cap
is
maintaining
and
staying
in
place,
actually
causes
more
problems
than
it
solved.
L
I
don't
think
we
solved
any
problems.
I
think
we
caused
new
problems
with
that
one.
So
I'm
going
to
vote
yes
to
this
today
and
I
will
probably
be
bringing
back
a
council
initiative
to
remove
the
cap
all
together,
because
it
it
is
not
doing
what
it
was
originally
intended
to
do,
and
it
just
caused
new
problems.
Thanks.
D
D
So,
given
that
fact,
I'm
going
to
be
voting
in
favor
of
this
ordinance
with
the
idea
that
that
I
think
our
time
would
be
better
spent
asking
ourselves.
How
can
we
use
the
revenues
that
come
from
gambling
and
I
would
like
to
move
forward
in
the
fut
near
future
with
an
initiative
that
would
create
some
some
designated
uses
for
the
revenues
of
gambling
in
this
community
that
can
be
used
for
projects
in
the
specific
wards
that
those
revenues
came
from
for
projects.
That
would
do
some
good,
because
gambling
is
not
going
away.
AA
Thank
you,
mayor
yeah,
I
mean
gambling
is
so
prevalent
these
days.
I
was
watching
one
of
the
football
games
and
the
announcers
are
making
ads
for
gambling
places
to
gamble
like,
but
but,
like
molly
said
it
is
seems
like
it
is
here
to
stay,
and
I
also
took
to
heart
what
the
public
comment
person
said
and
I
think
it
is
creating
have
and
have
nots
like
like
jamie
said,
and
also
it
does
seem
like
it
just
seems
like
we
are.
It's
saying
you
know
we
want
you.
G
AA
Are
going
to
help
those
big
developers
but
we're
not
going
to
help
our
homegrown
people,
and
I
do
I
do
hear
that
sentiment,
sometimes
from
our
local
businesses,
that
that
is.
That
is
the
case
and
but
but
I
will
support
this
provision
and
look
forward
to
the
initiatives
from
council,
member
ward
and
matthew.
Thank
you.
A
Thank
you:
okay,
councilmember,
becker,
emig
and
monty
and
bowman.
AF
AF
Even
to
save
millions
of
people's
lives
is
still
a
lie.
Right
is
the
basic
idea.
So
if
you
don't
believe
that
gambling
is
a
good
thing,
you
believe
it
brings
harm.
It's
still
bad,
even
if
it
brings
a
small
amount
of
economic
demand.
Development
are
good.
For
that
reason,
I
think
I'm
compromising
my
ethics.
If
I
vote
yes
for
this,
so
I'm
going
to
vote
no.
I
also
agree
that
it
does
unfairly
jump
the
line.
I
would
vote
yes
on
the
first
half
of
the
transfer,
but
not
the
second
half.
N
Yeah,
I
just
want
to
clarify
that,
at
least
in
the
case
of
lulu's
pizza,
I
believe
it
wasn't
jumping
the
line,
but
rather
honoring
a
contract
that
predates
the
cap
that
was
approved
by
council,
so
that
in
and
of
itself
is,
is
a
different
situation.
N
What
we
have
is
a
series
of
of
unforeseen
consequences,
and
if
older
woman
ward
hadn't
brought
up
the
initiative
to
find
ways
to
generate
revenue
towards
gamblers
anonymous
or
ways
to
support
people
who
do
need
help,
I
would
have
said
the
same
thing,
so
I
look
forward
to
supporting
her
in
that
way.
Thank
you.
AD
AD
Because
look
at
what
it's
done
for
that
area
and
with
regard
to
people
making
their
way
by
cars
to
other
communities
and
finding
their
place
to
gamble,
drive
around
and
look
look
at
the
proliferation
of
these
gambling
establishments,
predominantly
on
the
south
and
west
side,
where
I'm
observing
just
through
driving
around?
Because
this
is
an
area
where,
clearly,
you
can
hear
my
passion,
people
are
walking
into
and
spending
money
that
they
do
not
have.
AD
And
it's
very
sad
to
me.
Third,
one
of
our
three
homicides
of
this
year
in
bloomington-normal,
is
a
direct
result
of
somebody
being
followed
out
of
one
of
these
gambling
establishments.
That
is
a
fact.
There
are
over
100
communities
in
illinois
who
chose
not
to
go
down
this
path
and
they
seem
to
be
doing
just
quite
well.
H
Last
but
not
least,
I
I
spent
innumerable
hours
in
meetings
with
johnny,
painter
and
kimbray
having
these
discussions
all
of
these
discussions
that
were
just
shared,
and
we
came
to
this
decision
compromise
through
consensus
as
a
council,
I'm
not
against
changing
it.
But
personally,
I
don't
want
to
rehash
all
this
that
I
just
wanted
to
throw
that
out.
There.
I
Least,
thank
you
mayor.
I
I
share
councilwoman
matany's
concerns,
and
certainly
there
there
are
there's
lots
of
evidence
about.
You
know
some
of
the
problems
that
gambling
in
general
has
has
caused
this
community
and
larger
society.
That
being
said,
I
find
myself
agreeing
with
council
member
ward.
I
think
it.
I
It
is
a
reality
and
you
know,
and
people
do
have
choices
about
how
they
spend
their
money,
and
I
feel
very,
very
positive
about
ways
to
you
know
to
take
some
of
that
profit
and
maybe
try
to
return
it
to
the
communities
where
the
egyptian
with
the
gambling
establishments
may
exist
and
see.
If
there
are
ways
you
know
to
make
a
difference
with
something
that's
already
with
us
and
we're
not
going
to
be
able
to
take
away.
I
plan
to
vote.
Yes.
Thank
you.
Okay,.
A
Next
item
on
the
agenda
is
a
consideration
of
action
on
one,
an
ordinance
demanding
the
budget
ordinance
for
the
fiscal
year
ending
april
30th
2022
to
increase
the
water
fund
budget
by
378
thousand
dollars,
sanitary
sewer
fund
budget
by
186
thousand
dollars
and
storm
water
fund
budget
by
186
thousand
dollars,
and
two
approval
of
a
professional
services
agreement
with
clark
dietz
in
the
amount
not
to
exceed
750
000
for
professional
engineering
services
related
to
locus
colton's,
cso,
elimination
and
water
main
replacement
phase
5,
as
requested
by
the
public
works
department,
senior
manager,
gleason.
M
Thank
you
mayor
and
council
kevin.
You
can
set
tight
if
you
want
and
we'll
see,
if
there's
any
questions
of
you
and
there
there
could
be,
but
this
this
is
a
continuation.
I
actually
I'll
say
this.
This
is
this
is
a
victory
lap
for
the
council
to
take.
You
know
the
locust
colton
combined,
the
cso
project
was
already
in
play.
M
M
We
heard
very
clearly
that
the
community
asked
for
us
to
compress
this
as
much
as
we
possibly
could
taking
into
consideration
many
different
things:
the
chaos
that
occurs
when
you're
doing
a
large-scale
infrastructure
project,
also
the
commodity
shortages
that
we
have.
You
know
as
a
result
of
covid
and
also
contractors,
but
we
found
a
way
at
the
elected
direction.
M
M
We
see
the
possibility
once
beyond
this
phase,
or
this
consolidated
phases
to
possibly
combine
phases,
eight
and
nine
and
shave
yet
another
year
off
of
the
original
plan
of
a
2029
completion
date.
So
I
know
that
there
has
been
many
conversations
publicly.
There
has
been
countless
staff
hours
that
have
been
involved
in
this,
but
this
truly
is
the
first
step
as
a
result
of
the
conversations
that
have
been
occurring
since
late
june
and
the
deputy
city
manager
and
public
works
director
stand
ready
to
answer
any
questions
of
counsel.
Thank
you.
Okay,.
A
And
again,
I
I
want
to
say
not
only
thank
you
to
the
staff
for
the
long
hours
and
and
coming
up
with
some
creative
solutions,
but
also
thank
you
to
the
public
for
their
patience.
Because
doing
something
like
this
does
not
happen
overnight
and
the
public
has
been
very
patient.
Do
we
have
councilman
martini.
A
L
So
thanks
mayor,
did
you
say
this
way.
L
Sure
yeah
thanks
man,
so
I
I'm
absolutely
going
to
support
this.
I
appreciate
all
the
staff
time
on
this.
The
one
thing
I
noticed
is
that
that
this
design
phase
is
going
to
be
funded
by
the
american
relief
plan,
act,
funds
that
we
got
and
as
well
as
the
next
one
and
I'm
good
with
that.
L
But
I
want
to
make
sure
that
we
sit
down
and
we
have
a
meeting
soon
to
talk
about
the
long-term
scope
of
what
we're
going
to
do
those
funds,
because
I
think
that
there
are
many
things
that
we
could
do
and
it
doesn't
all
have
to
involve
just
being
sewer.
So
the
sooner
we
have
that
conversation,
the
better.
I
would
be
happy
thanks.
H
Yeah,
I
appreciate
everything
that
you've
done.
I'm
really
happy
eastgate's
moving
up
forward.
This
is
part
of
what
we're
doing
for
that
part
of
the
city.
I
noticed
that
phase
eight
and
nine.
It
says
in
the
packet
that
you're
going
to
be
using
the
iepa
loans.
Is
that
because
the
american
rescue
fund
dollars
will
have
already
been
used,
or
could
you
explain
why
that
is.
Q
The
original
project
was
going
to
be
using
the
iepa
funding,
and
so
at
this
point
we're
still
showing
eight
nine,
as,
as
you
know,
originally
funded
using
the
iepa
money.
That's
certainly
at
council
discretion.
If
you
direct
us
to
go
about,
you
know
using
other
other
funds
to
do
that.
We
certainly
can.
But
at
this
point
we
we
just
did
it
for
phase
five
to
accelerate
it,
because,
as
you
know,
we
have
to
get
with
the
iepa
loans.
The
state
revolving
fund.
Q
It
takes
some
time
to
you
know,
put
the
project
together
the
application.
Then
you
have
to
wait
your
turn
to
get
the
funding
and
stuff,
so
that
process
takes
quite
a
bit
longer
than.
H
I
have
said
this
all
along:
you
know,
rip
the
band-aid
off,
spend
the
money
and
fix
the
locus
colton
you
know
once
and
for
all.
I
personally
would
like
to
see
the
eight
nine
push
you
know
forward
and
faster.
That's
just
me
put
that
out
there
do
you.
Do
you
have
an
estimated
cost
based
on
phase
four?
How
much
phase
five
is
gonna
cost?
Would
it
be
equivalent.
H
Q
Yeah
we
had
that
shown
in
the
slide
before
I
I
don't
remember
it
off
the
top
of
my
head
right
now.
I'm
sorry.
Q
D
I
I'm
sorry
thank
you
mayor.
I
plan
to
support
this.
I
think
this
is
demonstrating
a
concrete
action.
You
know
that
for
the
that
we
can
show
the
public
that
indicates
our
commitment
to
address
you
know
all
the
issues
are
not
all
issues,
but
some
of
the
issues
that
were
generated
by
the
june
flooding-
and
I
also
would
like
to
reiterate
reiterate
my
support
for
what
jamie
said.
I
would
love
to
sit
down
and
figure
out
what
else
we
might
do
with
some
of
this
american
rescue
act.
AA
Thank
you,
mayor
yeah.
I
wanted
to
give
a
big
shout
out
to
to
the
staff
you
know
kevin
and
everybody
that
that
works
in
your
department.
I'm
sure,
has
put
a
lot
a
lot
of
hours
and
helping
to
explain
to
us
and
to
the
public
about
what
options
there
are.
I
also
want
to
thank
the
eastgate
residents
for
making
their
voices
known.
We
heard
them
and
and
we're
acting.
AA
I
did
have
a
few
questions
so
just
to
be
clear,
just
whatever
we're
gonna
the
plan
is
to
finish
phase
two,
this
2022
right,
yes
and
then
phase
three
we're
going
to
finish
in
2023
right
and
then
we're
going
to
start
if
everything
goes
goes
according
to
plan
with
regard
to
the
design
and
everything
the
plan
is
to
start
basis,
four
and
five
in
2023
and
finish
in
2024..
Q
AA
Okay-
and
there
was
a
mention
that
there
was
something
added
on
that
some
residents
have
their
water
service
coming
from
their
backyard
and
that's
going
to
be
switched
to
the
front
yards.
Is
there
going
to
be
any
cost
to
residents?
For
that.
Q
The
the
you
know,
design
process
as
far
as
figuring
out
what
to
do
with
each
property
and
how
to
set
that
how
to
set
that
up
to
be
successful,
that's
all
being
worked
out
as
part
of
that
design
process.
So
I
I
can't
really
say
exactly
what
that
looks
like
and
how
it's
going
to
work
out,
we'll
we've
budgeted
money
to
allow
for
some
of
that.
So
initially
that
that's
our
hope
that
we
can
do
that
type
of
thing.
A
Thank
you,
okay.
I
don't
see
any
other
questions.
So
do
we
have
a
motion
for
yes,
councilmember
martini
and
then
crable?
That's
right!
Okay!
So
if
we
go
ahead
and
vote.
A
All
right,
the
item
passes
are
no
needs
to
announce.
Moving
on
to
the
next
item
on
the
agenda
item,
nine
f
consideration:
action
on
one:
an
ordinance
amending
the
budget
ordinance
for
the
fiscal
year
ending
april
30
2022
to
increase
the
senator's
sewer
fund
budget
by
580
117
dollars
and
the
stormwater
fund
budget
by
580
118.
M
Thank
you,
mayor
and
council.
This
is
yet
another
victory
lap
for
council
as
as
a
result
of
the
conversations
related
to
late
june.
M
This
is
an
area
hydraulic
modeling.
What
this
does
and
it's
been
a
part
of
many
presentations.
Public
works
director,
kevin
cothy,
the
deputy
city
manager,
prepared
to
answer
questions,
but
this
takes
your
storm
water,
your
runoff.
It
guides
it
it
channels
it.
It
follows
gravity,
as
alderman
matthew
has
discussed
many
times
over
the
last
three
months.
M
This
is
an
area
that
was
identified
in
the
2014
sewer
master
plan
that
had
not
really
been
discussed
with
staff,
but
it's
a
it's
a
topic
or
a
portion
of
that
master
plan
that
kevin
cothy
and
his
team
have
identified
as
having
potentially
tremendous
positive
impact
related
to
some
of
the
storm
events
that
we
have
and
what
this
will
do.
At
least
this
first
phase
of
this
hydraulic
modeling
design,
phase
this
area
that
we've
talked
about.
M
That's
due
south
of
the
library
that
area
the
public
works,
campus,
the
police
department
that
we've
talked
about
in
the
past.
This
is
an
area
that
we
identify
that
a
detention
basin
would
dramatically
help
with
stormwater
runoff.
It
would
help
the
area
do
east
of
that
location
and
southeast
of
that
location,
and
it's
just
the
very
first
piece
of
a
larger
master
plan
when
we're
talking
about
hydraulic
modeling.
But
this
is
truly
the
first
piece.
M
We've
got
opportunities
to
turn
this
into
an
amenity,
whether
it's
partially,
whether
you
have
it
turn
it
into
a
water
feature
that
you
empty
the
basin
so
that
it
can
accommodate
a
storm
when
we
know
that
a
storm
is
coming,
but
it
becomes
that
amenity
to
the
library,
expansion
and
remodel,
that's
possibly
coming,
but
it
also
is
an
amenity
for
a
part
of
the
community
that
you
don't
see
as
many
playgrounds
or
other
amenities,
so
we're
thinking
bigger
than
this
just
being
infrastructure.
But
this
truly
is
as
a
result
of
the
storm
conversation.
M
That's
occurred
over
the
last
three
months
kevin.
I
don't
know
if
you
want
to
add
anything
additionally
or
deputy
city
manager.
Back
to
you
mayor,
thank
you.
A
Okay,
did
we
have
a
motion.
J
A
D
A
N
I
do
okay,
so
I
I
will
echo
everyone's
applause
for
the
work
that
city
staff
has
done
on
these
initiatives.
Thank
you
kevin
and
thank
your
staff.
Please,
and
the
one
of
my
questions
is,
if
I
understand
it
where
the
convenience
center
might
might
be
reallocated
and
for
the
record,
as
other
others
of
my
colleagues
have
noted
discussion
about
arpa
funds.
This
is
a
very
well
placed
use
of
them,
but
I
look
forward
to
more
conversation
about
how
they
can
be
expended,
and
perhaps
some
community
sourcing
about
that
as
well.
N
I'm
glad
we're
thinking
of
aesthetics
and
amenities,
above
and
beyond
this,
and
we'll
look
forward
to
submitting
an
initiative
for
council
consideration
around
forming
a
team
that
really
looks
at
green
infrastructure
and
environmentally
sound
practices,
but
back
to
the
convenience
center
question
kevin.
If
you
could
answer
that,
that
would
be
very
helpful.
Q
Yeah,
this
location
for
the
basin
would
impact
the
citizens
convenience
center
and
so
we'll
have
to
figure
out
where
that
goes.
I
mean
we
don't
have
all
the
answers
at
this
point
yet,
but
you
know
this
is
kicking
that
off
for
the
design
process
to
get
going
as
far
as
the
hydraulic
modeling.
Q
M
But
one
thing
to
add
very
quickly:
alderwoman
emig
is
the
convenience
citizen
convenience
center,
it's
an
amenity
to
the
community.
So
it's
not
going
away.
It
just
will
likely
have
to
be
moved
if
we
advance
into
construction.
D
Krebel
and
then
mommy,
thank
you
for
this.
I'm
obviously
voting
in
favor
of
this.
I'm
quite
supportive
of
this.
I
do
want
to
draw
attention
to
the
fact
that
between
this
this
proposal
and
the
last
proposal-
wards,
1,
4,
6
and
8-
have
been
impacted
and
are
are
the
awards
impacted
and
the
glaring
hole
in
this
is
still
ward
seven,
and
so
I
just
want
to
put
in
a
plug
for
ward
7,
which
was
devastated
by
the
june
floods
and
hope
that
at
our
very
soonest
convenience
we
can.
Q
One
of
the
things
that
we
plan
to
do
in
this
next
budget,
you
know
for
the
next
physical
year,
is
to
add
in
some
additional
model,
hydraulic
modeling
money.
So
look
look
for
that
as
to
try
to
address
some
of
the
other
areas
as
well.
Yeah.
AA
Thank
you
mary.
I
was
gonna,
say
exactly
what
molly
said.
With
regard
to
the
to
the
west
side,
I
was
also
going
to
ask
there's
a
statement
that
says
an
analysis
would
perform
to
determine
the
upstream
improvements
necessary
to
bring
enough
storm
water
to
the
east
street
basin
during
a
10-year
storm
event.
Q
So
that's
all
going
to
be
considered
as
part
of
this
hydraulic
modeling
is
how
we
convey
all
that.
We
already
know
it
conveys
that
way
right,
because
that
whole
area
flooded
during
that
june
event.
You
know
whether
it's
you
know
to
the
southeast
of
there
or
whether
it's
our
public
service
facilities,
the
water
wants
to
go
there.
So
it's
a
logical
place
for
the
basin,
so
there's
a
certain
amount
that
will
be
conveyed
in
in
pipes
and
then
there
will
be
a
certain
amount
that
will
be
conveyed.
AD
I
do
have
a
question
about
the
use
of
the
funds.
This
is
supposed
to
be
about
water
management.
AD
The
section
that
talks
about
this
as
being
referenced
e
street
pond
park
project,
which
does
you
know,
move
forward
into
what
looks
like
a
significant
amount
of
amenities
with
water
features
and
fountains
and
things
of
that
nature.
I
just
want
to
make
sure
that
we're
really
addressing
the
core,
which
is
to
fix
the
problem
that
created
such
chaos
in
our
community
on
june
25th
and
26th,
and
is
consistent
with
the
boundaries
that
were
placed
upon
how
we
could
use
the
relief
funds.
Q
It
in
that
is
like
we
said,
you
know,
the
the
core
function
of
the
facility
would
be
detention
and,
as
city
manager
noted,
you
know
we
looked
at
the
option
of
increasing
the
volume
by
removing
some
of
the
water.
You
know.
Maybe
it
has
water
in
it
just
to
kind
of
equalize
everything
and
look
nice,
but
then
you
know
for
the
storm
event
that
water
goes
away,
adds
more
volume,
as
opposed
to
just
having
a
very
large
hole
in
the
ground
and
not
being
you
know
something
attractive
to
the
community.
Q
We've
talked
with
other
communities
like
champaign
urbana,
and
you
know
places
in
peoria
and
so
forth,
and
quite
often
you
know
the
stormwater
facilities,
if
they're
designed
to
you
know-
and
it's
not
necessarily
adding
a
lot
of
cost
to
it.
But
you
know
just
having
that
a
little
bit
extra
touch
in
it
now
it
doesn't
make
it
just
look
like
a
hole
in
the
ground,
but
actually
makes
it
look
like
something
that,
as
trail
users
go
by
there.
Q
We
know
the
trail
is
right
there
along
the
tracks
and
the
library's
right
there
just
to
add
that
little
touch
that
makes
it
a
little
bit
more
special
than
just
a
hole
in
the
ground
type
of
thing.
H
Yeah,
I
I
have
several
comments.
First
of
all,
this
is
I'm
going
to
throw
stuff
out
there,
the
more
bells
and
whistles
the
more
maintenance
there
is.
I
read
some
there
somewhere
in
here,
where
there's
going
to
be
a
pump
station
and
all
I'm
assuming
that
that's
going
to
be
necessary
to
get
the
water
out
of
the
basin
and
you
know
down
the
sewer
or
to
a
creek.
H
Engineering
as
we
are
for
technical
engineering
to
ultimate
montney's
point,
I'm
not
against
beautifying,
but
I
think
it
needs
to
be
balanced
a
little
bit
or,
in
my
mind,
simplified-
and
I
also
noticed,
there's
a
chart
in
there
where
the
primary
consultant
gets
10
of
the
sub
consultants
fee.
Is
that
correct
right?
Okay?
So
that's
part
of
the
contract,
which
is
kind
of
similar
to
the
o'neill
pool
contract.
H
Where
every
time
will
it
be,
every
time
hard
costs
go
up
from
construction
that
the
soft
costs
from
this
primary
consultant
will
go
up
by
10
percent.
Q
H
Q
Traditionally,
the
the
engineering
division
in
public
works
uses
our
own
staff
for
the
construction
part.
The
only
part
that
we
use
the
consultants
for
typically
is
to
review
shop
drawings
and
advise,
but
they
would
the
the
baxter
woodman
firm
would
likely
be.
You
know,
carry
on,
like
I
say,
to
do
some
advice
during
during
construction.
H
Q
But
that
that
is
typical
among
among
consultants
and
also
general
contractors.
So
quite
often-
and
you
know,
when
we
have
subcontractors
working,
you
know
that's
all
incorporated
into
that
bid
price
that
there's
markup
from
what
they
do
with
the
subs
a
lot
of
times.
We
don't
necessarily
see
that
directly
outlined
like
this.
It's
just
incorporating
the
overall
price.
L
Thank
you
mayor,
thanks
kevin.
I
appreciate
the
work
on
this.
I
know
it's
something.
We've
talked
about
a
lot,
the
hydraulic
modeling.
L
My
only
concern
on
this
is,
you
know
we
we
have
a
lot
of.
Obviously
dimmitts
grove
is
part
of
this
because
we
had
some
pretty
bad
issues,
all
along
oakland
avenue,
the
so
dim
neighborhood
south
of
dimmitts
grove
is
also
part
of
this,
and
it
it
the
modeling
area
does
include
includes
some
of
the
worst
hit
parts
of
that
area
on
fremont
and
buchanan
streets.
L
L
Maybe
it's
based
on
the
terrain
of
that
area,
but
I
didn't
know
if
there
was
a
way
to
to
change
the
scope
to
look
a
little
further
south
to
go
all
the
way
down
to
to
lincoln
street
there
and
then,
if
there
is
great,
if
there's
not,
I
get
it
that
where
we
might
be
too
far
in
there.
But
I
do
have
some
concerns
about
that
lincoln
and
bun
street
intersection
there
the
way
that
it's
a
lower
elevation
than
everything
around
it
there,
and
then
you
know
just
to
echo
molly's
concern
too.
L
Both
we
saw
a
lot
of
flooding
in
the
evergreen
cemetery
area,
the
neighborhood
back
there,
as
well
as
in
south
hill
neighborhood
as
well.
So
when
we're
looking
at
those
future
areas,
let's
get
ward
7,
some
love
for
that
hydraulic
modeling,
but
also
you
need
some
other
parts
of
ward
1
are
going
to
need
some
attention
to
as
we're
moving
through
this
process.
Q
Thank
you
and
we
recognize
that
we
needed
to
make
a
manageable
project
here,
so
we
did
have
to
cut
off
some
boundaries
so
to
speak,
that
we
do
recognize,
as
you
stated,
the
other
issues
out
there
and
there's
some
other
opportunities
potentially.
And
so
we
look
at
this
as
not
just
a
one
and
done
thing
but
more
like
the
locus
colton,
where
we
have
multiple
phases
to
it,
just
because
it
extends
you
know
through
so
many
different
neighborhood
streets,
you
know
and
so
forth.
So.
L
A
Okay,
the
item
passes
or
no
nays
to
announce.
Our
next
item
on
the
agenda
is
the
finance
director's
report,
so
city
manager,
gleason.
M
Thank
you
mayor
scott
rathman
finance,
director
monthly
finance
directors
report.
We
continue
to
trend,
you
know
well,
but
that
is
not
excluding.
You
know
very
real
negative
covet
impacts
and
scott
is
here
to
give
us
an
update.
Scott
thank.
AG
You
city
manager
of
note,
council
member
crevo
last
month,
reminded
me.
We
didn't
get
the
document
up
on
the
website
before
the
meeting
and
also
pointed
out
that
somehow
we,
the
web
address,
got
dropped
off
this
initial
slide,
so
just
pointing
out
that
out
to
the
community,
you
can
locate
these
reports
and
other
reports
online
at
that
address.
So,
as
the
senior
manager
mentioned,
we're
still
we're
doing
well,
it's
it's
kind
of
the
same
status
as
last
month.
Revenues
are
trending
very
well.
AG
AG
A
lot
of
things
are
under
contract,
but
divisions
such
as
the
water
departments
that
are
reaching
out
to
vendors,
ensuring
that
you
know
those
supplies
you
utilize,
you
know
in
that
process
are
available
and
doing
all
of
those
things
that
you
know
the
city
staff
should
be
doing
to
ensure
that
services
are
being
provided
as
needed.
Phil
next
slide,
please
so
enhance
the
exhibit
this
month
with
some
colors
to
try
to
assist
people
in
following
along.
AG
Unfortunately,
I
complicated
it
a
little
bit
by
we
added
a
column,
so
you
know
trying
to
provide
the
public
counsel,
everyone
means
and
and
ways
to
kind
of
review.
Our
financials
there's
a
lot
of
numbers.
There's
a
lot
of
columns.
Here
we
have
the
the
year-to-date
budget
variances.
Those
are
some
of
the
two
columns
in
the
middle
spent
a
lot
of
time
on
those.
How
are
we
doing
compared
to
how
we
budgeted
for
the
year?
AG
Well,
you
have
to
take
that
into
context
with
what
did
we
do
with
the
current
year
budget
related
to
covet,
so
the
far
right
column
shows
the
21
fy
21
to
22
impact
that
we
took
into
account
for
the
budget.
So,
for
example,
I've
been
utilizing
local
motor
fuel
attacks
as
a
primary
example.
Example
of
that
over
the
last
couple
months,
you
can
see
in
the
far
right
column,
we
took
local
motor
fuel
attacks
down
by
15
percent
to
reflect
kind
of
a
lingering
residual
impact
of
covid
remote
workforce
et
cetera.
AG
That's
a
700
000
decrease
on
that
budget,
so
it
was
4.7
million
and
21.
We
took
it
down
to
4
million
dollars.
Well,
if
you
were
to
just
focus
on
how
we're
doing
year-to-date
we're
showing
over
the
left,
yellow
cell
3.94
percent
variance
year-to-date
to
budget,
that
looks
good.
Fifty
two
thousand
dollars-
and
you
can
see
the
last
months
with
was
three
point:
seven
percent
so
our
year
today
and
our
last
month
they
kind
of
correlate.
So
that's
an
indication
that
that
that's
that
range
is
is
smoothing
out
for
us.
AG
So
comparing
that
to
a
15
reduction,
you
can
see
that
we're
really
kind
of
trending.
You
know
four
percent
versus
a
15
11
down
from
that
4.7
million.
That
was
kind
of
that
recurring
number.
We
were
expecting
when
local
motor
fuel
tax
increase
would
put
into
effect.
So
that's
nearly
a
500
000
potential,
lingering
impact
to
further
kind
of
like
emphasize
how
to
read
the
data
you
know
compared
to
like
that,
year-to-date,
calm,
food
and
beverage.
You
can
see
you
know
we're
35
over
for
the
prior
month,
the
last
month
we
reported
versus
28.
AG
So
you
know
if
you
had
a
big
blip
or
up
or
down
in
that
last
month,
it
might
indicate
you
know
something's
going
on.
You
know
that
was
a
good
month
for
us.
The
last
month
28
over
a
year
today
we
took
the
budget
down
13
for
almost
13
21
to
22,
so
even
combined
with
that
reduction,
we're
still
doing
better
than
we
were
in
20,
using
it
utilizing
the
21
budget,
so
we're
almost
28
ahead,
year-to-date
versus
a
13
reduction.
J
AG
That
we
we
placed
on
this
year
the
kind
of
comment
on
the
on
the
remaining
yellow
boxes.
Here:
hotel
motel,
you
know
the
rivian
employment
situation
out
there.
I
think
that's
what's
driving
a
lot
of
that
hotel
motel.
We
took
that
budget
down
by
45
percent
going
into
fy
22.
I
mean
it
was
it
just
got
hammered
in
fy
21,
but
you
could
see
that
we're
109
over
budget
year-to-date
128
percent
was
the
last
month-to-date
variance
so
that
that
is
a
revenue
stream.
AG
You
know
we
can't
count
on
that
long
term,
but
we're
going
to
take
it
while
we
can,
the
gray
boxes
are
light
blue.
I
can't
remember
which
ones
I
utilize
here
my
wife
always
says
I
have
problems
with
colors,
but
I've
been
talking
a
lot
about
the
online
retailer
legislative
change
that
went
into
effect
in
january
1st
2021.
AG
AG
AG
AG
The
economy
is
cooking,
pretty
well,
but
that
prior
year,
that
130
thousand
dollars
that
that
shows
us-
you
know
getting
into
the
weeds
here,
but
just
want
to
also
emphasize
you
know
the
the
level
of
review
that's
going
on
within
the
city
that
moved
up
into
state
and
then
we're
also
capturing
that
formal
component.
So
this
very
significant
positive
impact
for
the
city
related
to
just
that
one
legislative
transaction,
so
you
know
kind
of
to
sum
that
up
revenues
are
doing
very
well
again
we're
having
this.
This
concern
mounting
concern
about
the
supply
chain.
AG
This
is
kind
of
like
my
closing
comment,
because
I'm
going
to
go
through
the
next
slides
pretty
briefly,
a
lot
of
contractual
situations
are
kind
of
helping
us
currently
but
going
into
23.
We
don't
know
if
you
know
people
are
going
to
be
trying
to
make
up
those
profits
next
year
for
those
those
contracts
etc.
So
it's
just
something:
we're
having
to
monitor
reaching
out
to
procurement
reaching
out
to
public
works,
seeing
what
they're,
seeing
as
far
as
these
projects
with
62
million
dollars
in
projects
and
how
that
might
be
impacted.
AG
AG
Okay,
our
general
fund
revenue
expenditures,
just
real
briefly.
You
know
five
months
into
the
year,
that's
42
of
the
year.
To
date.
That's
that's
a
statistic
we
put
at
the
top
there.
It's
an
annualized
trend,
it's
not
a
perfect
stat
to
use
when
doing
comparisons,
but
it's
it's
something
I
kind
of
want
to
highlight
how
it
doesn't
really
correlate
to
certain
line
items
so
for
taxes.
You
can
see
we're
at
48
percent
realized
to
date,
so
you
would
think
that's
we're
doing
better
than
budget
well.
AG
I
just
went
through
all
those
major
tax
revenues.
We
are
doing
better
than
budget,
but
this
particular
statistic
doesn't
really
correlate
to
that.
We
we
only
have
three
months
of
sales
taxes,
but
we're
five
months
into
the
year,
so
you'd
think
we'd
be
way
under
the
trend
just
due
to
sales
tax.
That's
one
of
our
largest
component.
However,
the
flip
side
of
that
we've
received
all
of
our
property
taxes
already
for
the
year,
so
it
kind
of
balances
it
out.
AG
AG
AG
AG
Enterprise
front
funds
same
communication
as
last
month,
the
consumption
you
know
at
the
bottom,
the
revenue
trend.
You
know
we
should
be
at
42
we're
actually
training
a
little
bit
better
in
some
of
these
categories.
Golf
continue
to
mention
that
75
versus
the
prior
year
at
68
golf's
having
a
wonderful
year,
we're
you
know,
rooting
for
them
and
and
that's
that's,
impacting
the
city's
revenues
and
then
again,
I
I
will
just
mention
related
to
the
projects
and
the
supply
chain
issues.
AG
You
know
I've
reached
out
to
some
people
related
to
what
they're,
seeing
as
far
as
pricing
goes.
You
know
some
of
that
stuff.
Some
of
those
prices
are
locked
in
at
this
point
in
time.
It's
really
kind
of
the
concern
might
be
on
the
on
the
back
end
of
the
year.
What's
going
to
happen,
but
just
wanted
to
ensure
the
community.
You
know
that
the
delivery
of
those
supplies
and
the
services
that
we're
providing
you
know
that's
being
watched
very
carefully
by
staff
to
ensure
that
services
continue
so
I'll
pause
to
see.
AD
It
would
be
helpful
to
see
something
that
puts
this
together
to
help
us
understand
what
are
the
implications
of
the
lower
taxes
that
we're
collecting
in
that
area
relative
to
the
incredible
challenge
that
we
have
with
our
roads,
with
learning
that
over
40
percent
of
them
are
rated
fair
or
below
in
our
own
rating
system.
AD
J
AD
Second
relates
just
to
the
overall
cost
structure
of
the
city.
I
think
it
would
be
very
helpful
if
we
could
anchor
this
into
something
that
allows
us
to
understand.
Are
we
getting
better
or
not,
and
I
would
propose
maybe
that
we
anchor
it
in
just
to
all,
in
total
expense,
divided
by
the
number
of
people
that
we
that
live
here,
so
that
we
can
look
at
that
over
a
time
horizon
and
know
with
clarity
at
a
high
level?
Are
we
spending
more
per
person
or
less,
and
what
are
what
do
we
want
that
to
be?
AD
What
should
it
be,
and
where
are
we
because,
right
now,
as
we
just
look,
you
know
term
over
term
or
even
looking
back
eight
years
and
just
looking
at
the
numbers
myself,
you
know
we
need
to
be
able
to
anchor
those
into
a
unit.
That's
stationary
that
can
allow
us
to
know
if
we're
making
progress
or
not
running
the
community
more
efficiently,
more
effectively,
if
we're
essentially
reducing
the
burden
on
the
people
who
live
here,
and
if
not,
why
not?
And
what
are
we
doing
about
that?.
AG
A
Okay,
so
that's
good
councilmember,
carville.
AA
Thank
you
mayor
and
thank
you,
scott
question
on
the
page
for
the
general
fund,
revenue
and
expenditures.
AA
At
the
bottom
it
references
expected
use
of
arpa
funds
of
6.6
million.
Is
that
basically
just
a
deposit
versus?
Are
we
expected
to
use
that
amount
in
this
fiscal
year?.
AG
J
AG
That
item,
okay,
that
makes
sense
because
it's
not
recurring
and
like
part
of
that
is
going
to
actually
have
to
get
too
much
into
the
weeds,
but
we're
going
to
rebook
that
revenue
into
the
other
funds
instead
of
doing
it
as
transfers,
because
that'll
gross
up
all
of
our
revenue
and
then
we
transferred
because,
like
it
was
proved
tonight
to
utilize
what
two
point:
some
million
of
that
for
water
sewer
storm.
AG
So
we're
just
going
to
re-book
where
those
funds
deposit
so
you're,
going
to
see
this
amount
go
down
next
month,
and
I
was
going
to
talk
to
that.
Then
so
the
6.3
or
6.7
is
going
to
go
down.
H
Thanks
scott,
for
all
the
information
as
usual,
I
noticed
the
red
ink
in
the
solid
waste
and
it's
about
a
million.
I
guess
we're
going
to
have
to
have
a
conversation
about
what
to
do
with
that
and
whether
or
not
we're
just
going
to
continue
holding
it
as
a
deficit
going
forward.
M
Actually,
older
woman
bowling.
J
M
AG
And
that
amount
is
not
that
that's
not
indicative
of
like
the
year
since
we're
all
halfway
through
the
year
we're
going
to
end
up.
You
know
two
million
dollars
in
the
hole.
Some
of
that
is
timing
related
to
encumbering
landfill
contracts
and
things
of
that
nature.
It
all
shows
all
at
once
at
the
beginning
of
the
year
and
then
the
revenues
come
in.
So
I
just
want
to
highlight
that
as
well.
L
Thank
you,
mayor
scott,
so
this
is
still
showing
a
negative
number
in
the
utility
tax
section
right
and
we've
had
the
conversation
before
that
the
utility
tax
was
put
in
place
to
pay
down
our
police
and
buyer
pensions
and
because
all
the
most
people
are
getting
rid
of
their
landlines
and
cell
phone
contracts
are
primarily
data,
not
telephone
line.
L
The
telephone
line's
like
20
bucks
and
the
data
is
the
expensive
part
of
it
right
and
so
data
is
not
taxable,
so
the
amount
of
money
coming
into
that
line,
which
represents
our
ability
or
not
our
sole
ability,
but
at
least
a
good
chunk
of
what
we
are
using
to
pay
down
police
and
fire.
Past
debt
is
being
challenged
and
now
we're
we're.
Our
next
meeting
is
a
november
meeting,
so
pretty
soon
you're
going
to
be
coming
to
us
and
saying
it's
time
to
set
the
tax
rate
for
next
year.
L
At
some
point,
we're
going
to
have
to
have
the
difficult
conversation
to
say
this
tax
that
we
use
used
to
pay
down
this
pension
debt
is
no
longer
actually
capable
of
paying
the
pension
debt
and
that's
gonna
have
to
get
fixed
right,
and
we've
talked
about
in
the
past
about
transferring
that
and
moving
that
on
to
property
tax,
and
I'm
just
pointing
out
that
here
we
are
at
the
end
of
october.
L
We
still
haven't
had
that
conversation
yet
that
we're,
if
we're
going
to
continue
this
commitment
to
pay
on
those
pension
plans,
we're
going
to
have
to
we're
going
to
have
to
have
this
conversation
sooner
than
later
right.
So
I'm
just
putting
it
out
there
again,
as
this
is
another
one
of
those
things
that
hasn't
gone
away,
but
we're
going
to
have
to
deal
with
it
at
some
point.
AG
L
That
and
I
would
I
would
still
love
to
see
a
updated
chart
on
our
pension
obligations
right.
We
win
the
city
council
in
2014.
L
I
haven't
seen
an
updated
chart
since
then
that
says
what
we
have
done,
how
much
we
have
saved
because
of
that
aggressive
payment
schedule,
and
what
does
the
things
look
like
going
forward?
So
I
think
that's
one
of
those
documents
that
we're
going
to
need
at
some
point
too,
to
refresh
everybody
what
we've
done
and
where
we're
going.
A
M
Thank
you,
mayor
and
council.
I
think
I
have
four
slides
tonight
and
then
just
a
couple
of
additional
comments
trick
or
treat
downtown
costumes
and
mass
are
encouraged.
That
is
the
29th
from
5
pm
to
8
p.m.
Next
slide:
please
howl
at
the
market
very
next
night
october,
30th
7
30
to
12
p.m.
At
the
museum
square.
M
M
We
have
first
friday
on
november
5th,
but
the
shop
small
campaign
and
shop
local
definitely
will
be
ramping
up
with
the
holiday
season
approaching
last
slide
new
employees
I'm
going
to
turn
around
and
because
I
can't
read
that
back
screen.
Brian
looty
just
started
with
as
the
assistant
ice
center
manager
with
hockey
doug
lancaster
is
support,
staff
four
or
five
with
parks,
david
willett,
a
multi-disciplinary
inspector
with
the
ecd
department
department,
michael
sennett,
community
enhancement,
department
manager
and
then
rachel
sabella
support
staff,
five
with
ecd.
M
This
is
actually
a
culmination
of
work
from
the
different
departments
that
had
the
vacancies,
but
the
hr
department.
They
do
an
excellent
job
of
trying
to
fill
some
of
these
critical
positions
and
we're
actually
gaining
ground,
because
the
hiring
market
that
we've
had
over
the
past,
I'm
going
to
say
a
year.
It's
been
a
challenge
to
hire,
but
we
actually
are
recruiting
well
and
hiring
extremely
well.
M
The
additional
comments
that
I
had-
and
I
wasn't
going
to
mention
this,
but
I
I
will
share
what's
on
the
november
committee,
the
whole
lineup
and
that
is
a
conversation,
a
continued
conversation
about
the
erp
funds.
M
We've
had
other
priority
discussions
that
took
precedent,
so
we
put
that
on
the
back
burner,
but
that
is
one
that
we're
going
to
discuss
with
council
as
for
input
and
next
steps
direction
on
next
steps
as
we
discuss
what
the
guidelines
are
and
then
also
share
what
some
other
communities
are
doing
in
in
the
form
of
surveys
asking
for
community
input
and
just
asking
again
for
that
council
next
steps
at
that
point,
then
also
at
that
very
same
committee
of
the
whole,
we
will
do
our
road
work,
wrap-up
presentation
again
that
we've
done
the
past
couple
of
years,
where
public
works
will
share.
M
What
they've
done
out
on
the
streets
with
the
different
buckets
of
motor
fuel
taxes
that
we
have
and
then?
Lastly,
I
wanted
to
turn
the
floor
over.
I
need
to
turn
the
floor
over
to
the
city
clerk
to
publicly
announced
some
of
the
changes
in
the
amendment
or
in
the
minutes.
Leslie.
C
Thank
you
so
just
wanted
to
take
a
second
earlier
today
I
had
sent
corrected
minutes
out
to
council
and
when
we
got
to
the
consent
agenda,
I
was
actually
supposed
to
point
out
then
that
those
minutes
had
been
corrected,
and
so
it
the
minutes
of
september
27th,
were
item
8b
on
the
consent
agenda
and
what
we
did
actually
is
we
mixed
up
a
vote
and
so
at
the
top
of
page
8
of
the
minutes
item
8d.
C
We
corrected
that
to
represent
what
actually
happened
at
that
particular
meeting
and
then
added
a
couple.
Their
words
to
make
a
sentence
and
a
viewpoint
makes
sense,
so
those
will
be
signed
and
published.
If
you'd
like
to
see
that-
or
you
have
questions
please
let
me
know-
and
apologies
for
not
pointing
that
out
at
the
consent.
Thanks.
A
What
always
happens?
Okay,
so
the
next
item
on
the
agenda
is
mayor's
discussion.
I
wanted
to
to
mention
that
tonight.
I
also
need
to
report
that
I
removed
robert
garcia
from
serving
on
the
property
maintenance
review
board
due
primarily
to
absenteeism
and
if
any
of
you
know,
of
persons
interested
in
serving
on
the
on
that
board,
feel
free
to.
Let
me
know:
okay,
other
things
that
I
wanted
to
mention
that
the
past
two
weeks
have
been
filled
with
very
exciting
events
for
the
city.
A
I
think
it's,
it's
always
nice
to
you
know
to
celebrate.
Even
in
retrospect,
we
had
the
groundbreaking
o'neill
pool
groundbreaking
the
electric
vehicle
energy
storage
demonstration
in
the
presence
of
the
governor
heartland
and
also
a
number
of
elected
officials.
The
speaker
of
the
house
was
also
there
so
which
was
very
exciting,
and
we
had
the
lighting
of
the
downtown
gateway
arch,
which
was
also
a
lot
of
fun.
A
A
Another
exciting
event-
and
I
also
wanted
to
take
a
minute
to
you-
know
recognize
karen
schmidt
and
say
thank
you,
because
she
she
was
being
very
gracious
in,
in
light
of
some
of
the
the
comments
that
people
have
made
about
her
on
on
facebook
and
and
other
places,
and
I
I
want
to
remind
people
that
you
know
karen
had
people
had
reached
out
to
her
and
also
reached
out
to
me
and
she
wasn't
really
looking
to
get
back
in
the
saddle,
and
she
only
said
well,
if
there's
absolutely
nobody
to
do
it
I'll
do
it.
A
A
And,
of
course,
this
brings
me
to
d,
I
want
to
say
again
congratulations
and
we
very
much
look
forward
to
working
with
you.
I
I
do
know
I
I
went
through
this
before
myself.
You
know
so
the
no
votes
are
they're
just
what
they
are
no
votes
and
once
people
get
on
the
council,
then
you
know
you'll
find
that
a
lot
of
folks
will
be
will
reach
out
and
work
with
you
to
make
sure
that
you,
you
have
a
good
experience
and
you're
able
to
be
an
effective
representative
of
the
award.
A
H
Yeah,
what
day
was
it
julie
and
jeff?
Were
there
the
immigration
project
luncheon?
I
was
able
to
attend
that,
and
it
was
primarily
in
relation
to
the
welcoming
america
initiative.
H
H
I
don't
I'm
going
to
pronounce
this
wrong
enriquez
and
what
she
kept
saying.
Was
people
helped
me
they
helped
me
get
my
children
registered.
They
helped
me
find
grocery
stores.
They
helped
me
find
a
doctor.
They
help
me
people
in
the
community,
and
that
is
exactly
what
welcoming
america
is
it's
holistic
to
reach
out
and
make
someone
who
is
new
to
the
community
integrated
into
the
community?
L
Thanks
mayor
two
things,
I
got
a
chance
to
go
to
the
edc's
bn
by
the
numbers
for
this
most
recent
quarter
and
good
news
is
that
we're
still
here
so,
but
it's
a
very
good
presentation
that
the
edc
does
every
time
to
kind
of
look
at
employment
numbers
and
unemployment
and
investments
in
the
community,
and
they
have
a
significant
number
of
projects
in
the
pipeline
right
now,
according
to
that
report
from
patrick,
that
could
make
bloomington
normal
a
very
interesting
place
to
live
for
the
next
couple
of
years,
but
no
there
was
no
update
about
samsung,
so
that
was
very
clear,
multiple
times
in
the
presentation,
but
there's
a
lot
of
other
projects
coming
this
way.
L
So
I
thought
that
was
that's
pretty
exciting
for
our
area
and
then
the
other
thing
is
today.
I
got
a
chance
to
go
to
a
presentation.
Connect
transit
actually
donated
two
of
their
older
connect:
mobility,
buses
that
have
been
since
been
replaced
to
the
boys
and
girls
club
because,
even
though
they
might
not
meet
the
needs
of
what
connect
transit
has
for
the
the
significant
use
they
use
for
them,
it
will
make
a
big
difference
to
boys
and
girls
club
to
move
kids
around
to
various
projects
around
town.
L
So
I
thought
that
was
pretty
cool
because
normally
something
like
that
would
get
auctioned
off
and
go
to
a
low
dollar
bidder
and
probably
be
turned
into
a
party
bus
of
some
sort.
This
is
a
much
much
better
use.
I
see
linda
foster's
in
the
back
and
she's
on
the
connect
transit
board
and
was
there
for
the
presentation
today.
So
just
another
one
of
those
simple
things
that
actually
is
going
to
make
a
big
difference
for
our
organization.
Our
community.
D
Yeah,
just
briefly,
I
I'd
like
to
request
an
update
on
the
use
of
the
ida
funds
and
applications
for
those
soon
please,
and
then
the
other
thing
is
if
we
could
get
some
kind
of
an
update
on
the
arrangement
of
this
room,
and
I
would
really
appreciate
that
as
well-
I'm
not
only
speaking
personally
about
the
crick
in
my
neck,
but
I'm
also
thinking
about.
If
I
can't
see
that
screen
over
there,
I
guarantee
nobody
in
the
public
who's
sitting.
D
There
can
read
this
screen
here
and
I'd
also
like
to
request
an
extra
table
for
our
folks
from
the
media,
so
that
they're
actually
able
to
sit
at
a
table
rather
than
than
having
to
use
laptops
as
laptops.
A
Thank
you
all
right.
Seeing
no
other
comments,
we
there's
no
executive
session,
so
I'd
like
to
entertain
a
motion
to
adjust.
A
To
return,
okay:
is
there
a
second
okay,
second
by
councilman
becker,
all
those
in
favor,
saying
by
saying
aye.
