Okay,
so
we
do
have
all
four
members
here
and
we
don't.
We
sometimes
have
special
meetings
when
we
have
things
that
need
to
be
addressed.
We
feel
like
maybe
separately
from
all
of
the
business
in
our
regular
meetings.
Today
it
is
the
review
of
a
resolution,
23-02
policy,
13220
to
a
change
of
how
structures
what
types
of
structures
are
permitted
in
on
Park
Properties.
So
Paula,
you
want
to
start
us
off.
D
The
parks
and
properties
and
Facilities
under
the
authority
of
the
board
of
Park
Commissioners
and
the
Bloomington
Parks
and
Recreation
Department
are
intended
for
the
recreational
use
of
the
whole
Community.
The
department
is,
of
course,
as
you
know,
responsible
for
maintaining
parks
and
trails
and
program
spaces
throughout
the
whole
park
system.
D
Camping
structures
and
makeshift
enclosures
have
become
a
serious
public
health
risk
and
safety
issues
due
to
vandalism,
illegal
activity,
the
accumulation
of
abandoned
property
and
garbage
resolution.
2302
outlines
the
reasons
for
the
resolution
and
the
adoption
of
policy
13220
entitled
use
of
structures
on
Park
Properties.
E
E
No
dice
Kim,
but
that's
okay,
I'll
just
tell
you
so
we
have
data
compiled
from
August
of
last
year
through
July
of
this
year
based
off
of
incident
reports
and
a
couple
other
pertinent
points
just
to
share
with
you
in
background
to
this
I'm
not
going
to
spend
a
lot
of
time
on
this
I
know,
there's
a
lot
of
discussion
to
be
had,
but
Kim.
If
you
wouldn't
mind
going
forward.
E
This
is
the
current
security
contract
that
Parks
enforces
and
has
in
our
different
park
locations,
different
patrols
that
work
in
switch
yard
and
other
core
downtown
parks
next
slide
Kim.
This
is
incident
reports
by
location
for
the
one
year
period,
ending
at
the
end
of
July.
So
going
back
to
August
2022,
you
can
see
our
top
incident
reports.
E
E
This
is
the
incident
reports
by
category
and
these
work
like
tags,
so
one
incident
report
might
have
multiple
tags
to
it.
So
the
total
number
here
is
going
to
Total
more
than
the
total
number
of
incident
reports,
but,
as
you
can
see,
our
our
top
five
categories
of
things
we
get
reported
from
security
staff
are
notes
to
maintenance
that
often
accompanies
any
kind
of
spill,
mess
or
issue
that
needs
to
be
taken
care
of
by
our
custodial
staff,
substance,
abuse,
property
damage
or
vandalism,
unsafe
conditions
or
still
mess.
E
We
also
keep
track
of
needles
that
are
found
in
Parks.
This
is
something
that
has
been
tracked
in
the
parks
department
since
at
least
2020.
These
are
the
numbers
you
can
see.
We
did
have
a
decrease
in
2022
2023.
You
know
this
is
data
for
about
halfway
through
the
year,
so
to
extrapolate
you
know,
I
would
anticipate
if,
if
things
continue
as
expected
to
for
that
to
be
approximately
double
by
the
end
of
the
year
and
I
believe
that
is
it
for
the
data
we
want
to
present
right
now,
all
right.
Thank
you.
Thanks.
A
C
F
C
A
All
right,
we
can
move
into
a
public
comment
section
which
I
believe
we're
going
to
it's
hard
to
tell
the
number
of
people
that
are
here
versus
a
number
of
people
that
want
to
comment
but
allow
up
to
30
minutes
for
people
to
comment.
We
usually
provide
commenters
with
two
minutes
to
come
up
and
speak
and
if
and
ask
you
to
sign
in
please
at
the
podium
and
then
Kim
will
keep
the
time
for
us
and
let
us
know
when
you're,
when
you're
closing
in
on
your
two
minutes.
G
H
H
It
comes
down
to
both
a
public
health
issue
and
an
Aesthetics
issue.
Both
the
public
health
with
regards
to
illicit
drug
use,
other
illegal
activities
within
those
and
Aesthetics
of
just
looking
at
tents
and
not
feeling
safe
within
those
within
the
public
public
grounds
area
that
we
hold
so
dear
here
in
the
award-winning
parks
department.
H
When
you
see
those
tents,
it
there's
a
worry
that
goes
about
you
or
you
look
away
and
I
think
we
get
calls
at
the
Chamber
from
very
many
of
our
170
members,
many
of
which
are
small
businesses
that
call
us
and
and
with
issues
with
regards
to
some
of
the
behaviors.
They
see
the
trash
that
they
look
at
the
needles
they
have
to
pick
up
and
I.
Think
these
tencent
enclosures
sort
of
create
an
atmosphere
for
that.
H
I
Good
evening
my
name
is
Sarah
Nicholson
I'm,
a
community
volunteer
with
many
of
these
populations
that
are
in
the
Parks
I.
Just
would
like
to
remind
everyone
if
we
could
use
people
first
language
that
would
be
outstanding
using
terms
like
unhoused
individuals,
not
pointing
fingers
at
a
certain
population
of
people.
I
J
K
K
Halverson
I
work
with
Indiana
recovery,
Alliance
I
work
with
the
unhoused
population
in
this
town
and
honestly,
the
first
two
people
that
just
came
up
here,
sort
of
made
me
want
to
puke,
because
I
hear
about
Aesthetics
in
this
town,
I
hear
about
what
what's
good
for
business:
we're
talking
about
people,
we're
talking
about
people
who
live
outside
year
round
in
this
town,
this
town,
that's
democratically
LED
and
don't
give
a
about
the
people
in
the
sun
house,
population
I'm
shaking
right
now,
I'm
so
mad.
These.
K
The
idea
that
someone
can't
look
at
people
that
are
in
a
public
park.
They
can't
look
at
them,
I'm,
sorry,
but
that's
insane
like
that's
absolutely
insane.
These
are
human
beings.
These
are
human
beings
they're
a
part
of
this
community,
whether
you
like
it
or
not,
they
don't
have
anywhere
to
go.
We
have
no
shelters
in
this
town,
not
enough.
We
don't
have
enough
housing.
We
don't
have
enough
affordable
housing
because
everybody
in
this
town
wants
to
keep
kissing
the
ass
of
the
people
who
bring
the
money
into
this
town.
K
K
K
M
I'm
Bob
skank,
I
own
the
post
office
at
the
downtown
post
office
and
the
fence
went
up
the
post
office.
Put
it
up,
the
people
have
been
assaulted,
they
didn't
put
it
up
for
no
reason.
You
know
I'm
in
support
of
this.
If
we
can
enforce
it,
I
agree
with
this
gentleman.
We
need
to
do
something
for
these
people,
but
every
day
you
go
to
the
Post
Office
and
they're
working
forward
and
five
hours
a
day,
picking
up
the
trash.
M
M
C
N
Hi,
my
name
is
Hannah
Gorman
concerned
citizen,
I,
guess
I
think
it's
terrifying,
that
this
is
what
we're
spending
our
time
and
effort
discussing
instead
of
figuring
out
things.
I
will
help
people
get
out
of
the
system.
This
is
only
going
to
continue
putting
people
in
the
jail
I.
Think
it's
terrifying,
I,
think
it's
terrifying
that
we're
talking
about
Aesthetics
over
human
beings
lives.
Don't
really
understand
that.
N
Another
point
I
wanted
to
make
is
that
just
because
the
tents
are
gone
doesn't
mean
folks
aren't
going
to
gravitate
toward
that
area.
It's
right
next
to
Shalom.
They
need
to
be
near.
Resources
like
folks
are
still
going
to
be
in
that
Park,
so
they're
still
probably
going
to
be
people
calling
about
them
and
complaining
about
them
just
because
they're
in
the
park.
So
that's
one
point:
it's
also
going
to
affect
like
resources
that
come
to
the
park
to
find
people
to
help
them
get
housing
to
take
them
out
of
the
park.
N
So
it's
not
an
issue
like
there's,
so
many
people
that,
like
that's
the
only
place
we
can
find
folks,
is
at
Seminary
Park.
You
know
like
to
give
them
Health
Care
to
work
on
housing,
so
many
things
and
that's
going
to
be
affected
too.
If
a
lot
of
people
can't
set
up
there.
So
it's
also
just
a
community
building
area
like
people,
don't
are
people
experiencing
homelessness,
don't
really
have
that
many
places
to
go
because
they're
pushed
around
every
single
anywhere
they
go
They're
pushed
around.
N
So
this
is
a
nice
place
for
them
to
be
with
their
friends
and
actually
have
like
an
okay
life.
I,
don't
know
like
clearly
they're,
not
having
it
they're
experiencing
very,
very,
very
hard
things
that
no
one
here
understands
unless
they've
experienced
it.
So
it's
a
meeting
grounds
for
them
to
be
with
each
other,
so
yeah,
basically
I
just
can't
understand
why
this
is
what
we're
focusing
on.
So
thank
you.
O
Hi,
my
name
is
Sydney
zulik
I
want
to
start
off
by.
You
know,
thanking
the
park
board
and
everyone
else
who
has
dedicated
so
much
of
their
time
to
making
Bloomington
Parks
as
amazing
as
possible,
but
I
can't
support
this
ordinance.
I
lived
on
the
Square
for
two
years:
I'm
a
city
council
candidate
in
District,
Six
I,
understand
this
issue
from
multiple
lenses,
but
I
can't
help
but
think
how
many
opportunities
we
haven't
fully
discovered
to
help
people
experiencing
homelessness
before
we
impact
them
by
hurting
them.
O
So
before
you
pass
this
resolution,
I
really
encourage
you
to
exhaust
every
single
strategy
that
would
help
people
experiencing
homelessness,
to
have
safer
places
to
exist,
safe
places
to
put
their
stuff
I
know.
Someone
said
that
having
tense
gives
them
more
space
to
have
stuff.
We
all
have
stuff.
The
only
difference
is
we
have
homes
to
put
our
stuff
in
I
guarantee
you
almost
everyone
in
this
room
has
more
stuff
than
a
homeless
person
can
put
in
their
tent
okay.
So
we
can
do
better.
O
O
O
P
I'm
also
shaking
a
little
bit
hi.
My
name
is
Tonda
radwan
I've
lived
in
Bloomington
since
1999
I'm,
currently
on
the
Bloomington
Monroe
County
Human,
Rights
Commission.
There
are
a
lot
of
communities
that
consider
housing.
Human
right,
I
hope
that
we
get
to
a
point
here
in
ours
where
we
recognize
and
move
forward
into
doing
that
I'm,
not
sure
if
this
is
a
good
place
for
a
question
or,
if
I'm,
just
posing
that.
P
As
a
comment,
I
really
do
appreciate
the
a
addendum
and
information
that
was
sent
out
by
the
cfrd
director
talking
about
what
they
have
been
doing
through
their
Department.
As
far
as
providing
a
lot
of
funding
and
having
a
lot
of
meetings
and
talking
about
the
after
hours
Ambassador
and
the
work
that
they
do.
P
Q
Good
afternoon,
thanks
for
letting
me
speak
here
today
before
the
Parks
Board
I'm
Russ,
skiba
I'm,
a
professor
emeritus
at
Indiana,
University,
formerly
with
the
school
psychology
program
and
I-
don't
normally
bring
that
in.
But
in
this
case
this
is
very
much
an
issue
of
Mental
Health,
Services
mental
health
and
social
services
and
I
think
this
resolution
roundly
ignores
both
of
those
things.
Q
You
know.
The
first
issue
is
what
will
happen
to
the
individuals
who
are
put
out
of
the
tents
in
these
places.
They
are
prime.
They
are
folks,
most
of
whom
don't
want
to
be
in
a
shelter
they
will
be
looking
for.
Other
places
in
town
to
put
up.
Many
of
them
will
go
downtown
because
there
are
good
overhangs
and
they'll
sleep
in
doorways,
like
many
of
them
do
now.
Some
of
them
have
serious
mental
health
problems
and
they
will
be
these.
Q
People
with
mental
health
problems
will
be
then
in
a
state
of
Crisis
because
they
have
just
lost
their
Temporary
Home
in
many
of
their
possessions.
So
what
will
we
have?
We'll
have
people
with
serious
mental
health
problems
in
crisis
situation
confronting
the
citizens
of
Bloomington
who
are
walking
around
downtown.
This
is
a
resolution
with
the
potential
for
very
serious
unintended
consequences.
Q
Second,
the
issue
of
unhoused
folks
is
a
very
complex
issue.
Some
of
them
arrived
in
that
state
because
of
finances,
some
of
them
because
of
mental
health
issues,
and
frankly,
some
of
our
problem
here
is
because
we
have
too
many
social
services.
You
know
other
places
in
in
Indiana
send
their
unhoused
folks
here,
because
they
know
how
many
services
we
have.
So
any
singular
issue
like
this.
Any
singular
attempt
to
fix
this
with
just
something
simple
like
kicking
them
out
of
parks
is
really
just
ignoring
the
complexity,
and
especially
because
this
is
involving
law
enforcement.
Q
It
is
always
dangerous
when
we
take
an
issue
of
mental
health
or
social
services
and
put
it
in
the
hands
of
law
enforcement.
I
just
want
to
say
really
quick,
I'm
very
sorry
to
go
over
here,
but
I
I
want
you
to
think
about.
I
know
it's
tempting
to
kick
this
upstairs
to
the
city
council,
but
think
about
the
last
time
that
happened.
The
infamous
nine
hour
meeting
that
was
essentially
this
same
issue.
Q
S
How
can
everybody
hear
me?
Okay,
yes,
Okay
I,
Eric
spoonmore,
president
of
the
greater
Bloomington
Chamber
of
Commerce
I,
want
to
follow
up
and
perhaps
clarify
some
remarks
made
by
my
colleague,
Mr
mg
earlier
so
I
I
just
want
to
reiterate
and
make
sure
that
everyone
understands
that
the
chambers
number
one
priority
in
supporting
this
particular
measure.
Is
safety
and
I
understand
that
there
is
a
daily
report
of
security
incidents
and
activities.
That's
re!
That's
reported
back
to
the
parks
department.
I've
asked
to
get
added
to
that
daily
report.
S
Large
amounts
of
use
syringes,
evidence
of
prostitution,
sex
trafficking
and,
as
you
can
imagine,
this
is
something
that
is
deeply
deeply
concerning
when
women
are
put
in
those
types
of
situations,
and
so
the
chamber
just
wants
to
make
sure
that
every
citizen
in
the
city
of
Bloomington
is
safe,
regardless
of
their
housing
status.
You.
S
S
And
so
we
want
to
ensure
the
safety
of
everybody,
and
so
we
really
do
see
this
as
also
an
issue
of
equity
and
accessibility.
There's
a
lot
of
folks,
all
citizens
should
be
able
to
access
our
Parks.
We
want
to
make
sure
that
everybody
has
Equitable
access
to
the
parks,
and
so
we
see
this
policy
as
ensuring
that
and
I
think
that
well
I'll
just
leave
my
comments
there.
V
U
Every
year
during
welcome
week
and
the
beginning
of
fall
semester
of
the
city
as
well
as
this
body
makes
the
lives
of
our
unhoused
even
harder.
It's
time
to
change
that
it's
time
to
set
aside
spaces
within
the
city
limits
close
to
Services,
where
people
can
sleep
both
during
the
day
and
at
night,
where
they
feel
welcome
you
care
about
people,
don't
bother
saying
that,
after
hearing
all
of
our
comments,
I
was
always
taught
in
school
and
throughout
my
adulthood,
to
be
careful
of
those
whose
words
don't
match
their
actions.
U
Four
people
appointed
by
our
mayor
should
not
hold
all
people
in
Bloomington
hostage.
Where
is
the
compassion
and
empathy
really
if
people
and
parents
are
nervous,
with
their
kids
being
around
people
who
are
unhoused?
Perhaps
seeing
these
neighbors
would
be
a
wonderful
opportunity
to
teach
them
about
empathy
and
compassion,
ask
why
people
are
so
compelled
to
look
away
the
inhumanity
of
doing
this
is
telling
of
who
we
are
as
people
and
what
we're
made
of
people
all
can
indeed
still
enjoy
these
properties.
U
Your
data
charts,
showing
incidences,
make
it
sound
as
if
you
know,
unequivocably
that
these
were
done
by
those
having
structures
you
want
to
disallow
that
is
patently
false
and,
having
said
data
weakens
your
argument
to
do
this,
feeling
unsafe
doesn't
mean
a
person
is
unsafe.
I've
actually
been
told
that
by
people
in
the
administration.
U
A
C
W
Thank
you.
I
will
speak
very
briefly
against
this
proposal
that
the
people
before
me
have
all
said
it
better
than
I
could
and
specifically
I
wanted
to
go
back
to
the
Chamber
of
commerce's
comments
about
access
and
in
the
time
in
the
decade
I've
been
in
Bloomington
I've,
seen
the
cost
of
providing
what
the
city
considers
security
to
the
Parks
grow
and
grow
and
grow
as
more
and
more
access
is
regulated
and
controlled.
W
L
Hello,
can
you
hear
me
hi?
My
name
is
Sam
Dixon
I'm,
a
downtown
Bloomington
resident
I've,
been
here
downtown
for
the
last
five
years.
I
just
wanted
to
join
the
chorus
of
voices
resisting
this
proposal
and
say
that
it
is
a
very
facile
and
dehumanizing
proposal.
It
should
not
stand.
Furthermore,
it
violates
the
Eighth
Amendment
according
to
Martin
versus
Boise,
which
was
the
ninth
Circuit
Court
decision
handed
down
in
2018
in
Boise.
L
So
I
think
this
policy
is
attacking
a
lot
of
problems
from
the
wrong
angle.
It's
about
pushing
people
out
of
view
and
and
further
putting
them
at
risk
of
harassment
and
suffering,
and
it
is
the
wrong
direction
to
go
for
Bloomington.
Furthermore,
the
perception
of
violence
surrounding
the
unhoused
community
is
a
very
mythologized
perception,
especially
among
our
wealthy
and
ownership
class
in
Bloomington.
The
the
popular
perception
is
that
people
who
run
unhoused
are
going
to
commit
violence,
but
none
of
the
data
really
bears
that
out.
L
C
C
X
So
I'm
Alan
Rose
of
holistic,
affordable
housing.
Obviously
there
are
things
that
are
kind
of
understandable
on
either
side
of
the
dichotomy,
and
it
is
kind
of
a
first
things.
First,
approach
to
supply
someplace
for
these
people
to
be
it's
not
just
that
they're
guarding
possessions
overnight,
they
are
literally
run
off
from
wherever
they
try
to
go,
and
so
often
that
is
when
they
are
allowed
to
sleep
is
during
those
hours
during
which
the
tents
are
still
permitted.
X
A
compromised
position
would
be
something
like
the
property
that
Hopewell
the
old
hospital
site
is
going
to
be
developed,
but
at
present
is
vacant
and
that's
going
to
take
a
while.
That
could
be
designated
it's
near
the
same
area
and
services
and
you
could
even
put
up
art
walls,
green
Walls,
some
kind
of
screening,
Place,
porta
potties.
Of
course,
the
needle
compartments
and
something
like
showers
or
something
to
you
know,
deal
with
those
safety
and
hygiene
issues.
X
And
you
know
that's
step.
One.
Just
trying
to
make
these
people
go
away
is
not
not
addressing
anything
and,
as
others
have
said,
is
going
to
cause
more
interactions
with
law
enforcement,
and
you
know
potential
conflicts
there
it.
You
know
it's
understandable,
that
people
are
not
quite
comfortable
with
this
they're.
X
Not
necessarily
contempt,
have
contempt
for
these
people,
but
if
your
only
approach
is
to
make
them
go
away
and
you're,
not
addressing
the
basic
need
for
some
kind
of
a
Campland,
some
kind
of
a
sanctioned
area
that
is
not
pushed
out
into
the
Hinterlands
causing
commutes
and
so
I
think
you
should
consider
some
kind
of
a
compromise
and
a
designated
space
so
that
these
people
can
get
their
rest
because
without
sleep
there
are
many
Health
consequences.
It
affects
the
immune
system
and,
of
course,
causes
Mental
Health
distress.
C
D
An
email
that
came
in
and
she
asked
that
I
read
it
during
public
comment
good
afternoon.
My
name
is
Vicki
watermere
palette
and
I
am
an
almost
50
year
old
resident
of
Bloomington
in
Monroe.
County
I
have
concerns
about
the
way
our
public
parks
are
being
used
by
folks,
camping
in
them.
I
support
the
proposal
to
disallow
erecting
tents
and
other
forms
of
shelters
in
our
Parks.
D
However,
I
would
like
to
see
this
in
the
case
at
all
times,
not
just
during
the
day
I
visit
the
woods
and
RCA
Park
on
a
daily
basis,
rain
or
shine
in
the
last
few
years,
I
have
seen
evidence
of
drug
use,
camping
and
campfires.
In
the
woods,
one
area
also
betrayed
evidence
of
a
tree
being
burned
by
a
fire
that
was
built
at
its
base.
I
have
also
seen
evidence
of
human
waste
and
paper
used
for
cleaning
oneself
after
toileting
gargantuan
trash
is
left
in
the
woods.
D
I
often
take
garbage
bags
back
to
the
woods
to
pick
up.
Refuse.
I
am
also
concerned
about
these
things
in
all
parks,
but
especially
RCA
Park
Woods,
because
it
is
a
green
Jewel
and
should
be
preserved
as
such.
It
is
used
by
people
of
all
ages
and
activities
such
as
camping
and
and
activities
such
as
camping,
could
result
in
the
loss
of
our
Woods
to
fire,
injury
or
health
problems.
D
If
you
are
allowing
camping
in
this
Woods
at
night,
it
needs
to
be
monitored
more
thoroughly
than
it
is,
and
I
would
hope
that
camping
would
not
be
allowed.
I
appreciate
the
opportunity
to
voice
my
concerns.
I
say
all
this
is
someone
who
has
spent
the
last
24
years
before
retirement
working
with
bloomington's
unhoused
population.
A
Y
Hi,
my
name
is
Jerry
Hayes.
We
we
have
a
serious
problem,
but
I
I
think
we're
confusing
the
issue
here.
We
need
to
address
a
unhoused
population
by
providing
services
and
Mental
Health
Services
Addiction
Services.
But
let's
not
confuse
the
issue
here.
This
is
the
issue
is
really
about
it's
not
about
the
in-house
per
se.
It's
about
public
safety
and
public
health
issues.
So,
let's
just
keep
focused
on
the
real
issue.
Thank
you.
A
F
Just
make
I'll
just
make
a
comment
that
I
appreciate
hearing
all
the
input
from
everyone
that
has
made
input
today
and
there's
no
question
that
we
need
Social,
Services
and
other
issues
dealt
with
and
we
need
those
available
for
everyone.
That's
involved
in
these
issues,
but
our
issue
is
the
park.
Commissioners
is
to
take
care
of
the
parks
and
to
make
the
parks
accessible
to
all
and
to
have
a
safe
environment
for
all
that
utilize,
the
park,
regardless
of
their
housing
status
and
other
issues
that
may
be
involved.
F
This
is
not
an
effort
to,
or
this
is
not
Banning
people
from
the
parks.
This
proposal,
it's
not
kicking
people
out
of
the
parks,
it's
assisting
Us
in
ensuring
that
we
have
a
safe
environment
in
the
Parks
and
so
I'm
in
support
of
the
ordinance
and
resolution
and
would
would
support
it
passing
that
today.
Thank
you.
A
Okay,
I
would
just
kind
of
tack
on
to
a
little
bit
of
what
what
Jim
has
said
that,
unfortunately,
when
these
issues
come
up,
it
becomes
and
I
I
totally
understand
this.
If
it
comes
a
little
bit
of
a
referendum
on
like
how
we
as
a
society,
are
helping
people
who
are
unhoused-
and
those
are
all
great
questions
to
ask-
you
know
we
as
Jim
said
we're
tasked
with
overseeing
what
goes
on
in
Parks.
I
mean
we're.
A
We
are
here
to
make
sure
that
the
parks
properties
are
safe
and
accessible
for
everyone
and,
frankly,
as
the
people
also
oversee
what
the
decisions
the
parks
department
makes,
we
can't
really
continue
this
cycle
of
of
the
I.
Don't
know
the
the
needle
removal
and
the
trash
removal
and
the
storing
of
belongings
and
it's
it
gets
a
little
bit
hard
I
think
as
a
Parks
commissioner
to
say
we're
just
doing
the
same
thing
over
and
over
again,
and
we
don't
seem
to
be
finding
our
way
out
of
it.
A
Z
Yeah
and
I
would
also
just
Echo.
You
know
this
is
a
really
complex
issue
there.
I
would
I
would
caution
our
community
from
having
a
stigma
against
the
unhoused
population.
They're
all
members
of
our
community-
and
you
know,
I
I,
they're
they're.
All
everyone
I
think
what
we.
What
we
want
to
say
is
that
everyone
is
welcome
in
parks
and
that
they
need
to
be
accessible
for
everyone
and.
Z
Z
Just
you
know,
I
think
everyone
in
this
room
realizes
that
this
is
a
community
issue
and
that
we
all
play
a
part
in
it
and
and
that
I'm
I'm
gonna
vote
in
favor
of
passing
this
resolution,
but
I
think
we
still
have
a
lot
of
work
to
do
with
our
community
and
family
resources,
with
the
heading
home
group
to
figure
out.
What's
going
to
happen
now
that
the
wheeler
women's
shelter
is
closing,
we
all
have
a
lot
of
a
part
to
play
and
helping
solve
those
issues.
AA
AA
But
the
thing
is
that
someone
said
the
thing
is
that
the
results
that
we
have
seen
with
the
with
the
report
from
from
team
is
that
we
have
seen
a
not
a
concern
from
the
house
people
to
to
three
parts
as
a
as
a
that's
the
best
way
and
not
finding.
You
know
a
compromise
to
to
take
care
of
the
parts
to
behave
in
in
a
in
a
way
that
all
citizens
should
be
in
a
in
a
part.
So,
as
my
colleagues
have
mentioned,
I'm
also
in
favor
of
this
ordinance.
C
V
C
J
A
Aye
okay
motion
is
unanimously
carried.
I.
Do
want
to
thank
again,
everyone
who
came
to
comment.
I
mean
I,
truly
Jim
said
this.
Others
have
said
this,
do
appreciate
it
written
down
some
of
the
things
that
you
say
and
plan
to
hopefully
follow
up
with
some
different
organizations
as
best
we
can.
So
we
really
appreciate
everyone's
input
today.
Thank
you.
