F

Council and uh our rules of procedure, robert's.

F

Rules of orders calls for a committee of the council to actually take up and.

F

Approve those uh those minutes, um this is similar to.

F

Sets of minutes from 2019 the council approved earlier this year.

F

I think if the council wants to approve these minutes in the ordinary course.

F

Of business, um a motion to suspend the rules is in order.

F

This is again similar to a motion that the council has made earlier in this year. I think that motion was was maybe limited, two minutes from 2019, so a similar motion is in order here.

A

Okay, I'll note, briefly, that all seven minutes are from regular sessions.

A

uh Is there any discussion of mr lucas's comment or of the proposed.

A

Motion any thoughts from members questions.

A

If not uh I'll cancel repeat smith well, so, uh as I understand it,.

F

uh Course of action, if there is no objection from a member.

A

To uh councilman, puyon smith withdrawing her motion.

A

uh Then we will uh allow her to do so. Please make the new motion. I withdraw my.

A

I'm going to start with uh the person, uh I see all nine members on the main.

A

Screen, I'm going to start with the council of flaherty a report. Thank you.

A

Councilman rosenberger no report thanks counselor sims. Thank you.

C

um Quickly, what I'd like to say is, um I am encouraging everyone to vote and I'm.

C

Sure I don't have to do that, um but the experience is um I voted at.

C

Early voting and it took one hour and ten minutes for.

C

Me um and I started at the line that was.

C

Midway between madison and rogers on sixth street.

C

um It seems like it could have been a lot longer.

C

But what I really want to do is shout out appreciation to.

C

County clerk, nicole bowden and her election central staff.

C

I'm sorry did I. What did I say.

B

You said bolden, you meant brown, I'm sorry.

C

I should not be looking at you. Thank you for the correction, family clerk, nicole.

C

Brown and the election central staff, and particularly the volunteers with the.

C

Boots on the ground that we're doing all of the work.

C

There's multiple stations set up, so it was a very smooth operation.

C

And I would encourage everyone to utilize that.

C

If they so choose or vote on election day, if you hadn't done an absentee.

C

Ballot, so really just want to give out a shout to those staff. um I thought it was very efficient.

C

Thank you. Thank you, councilmember smith, no report. Thank you, council for piedmont,.

A

Smith, our report, thank you. Councilmember.

A

Sandberg no report thanks. Thank you. Councilman.

A

Baralo your report, thank you. Councilmember.

A

Scandaluri no report. Thank you. Thank you. I do have.

A

A report a couple of uh prepared statements, I'd like to make tonight.

A

um The first is less than two weeks ago, iu announced that david star jordan's.

A

Name would be removed from the many significant buildings and.

A

Places on the iu campus council's been approached with the.

A

Question of what to do about jordan avenue, I believe it should also be renamed. There is precedent for changing the.

A

Names of city streets, even though bloomington is more than 200.

A

Years old, we did not start out with streets named lincoln.

A

And grant, for example, those were streets renamed just after the civil war.

A

At this significant moment in city history, I would like to propose that.

A

Jordan avenue be renamed in honor of two people who have.

A

Themselves been significant makers of city history, george and viola telepharo. Tomorrow is the second anniversary.

A

Of george califaro's passing the late iu president hermann wells, whom the.

A

Telepharos knew well believed that it was not appropriate to name.

A

Something after someone, until five years after their passing.

A

Which is why the trustees, who were going to name something after the man.

A

In 2000 did not rename the building that I used to know as the main library.

A

Into the wells library until 2005., while I trust that there's going to be a.

A

Public process to choose the eventual name, I'm certainly trying to put my thumb on the scale of tonight, but if it finds.

A

Favor with public sentiment, I look forward to sponsoring legislation.

A

To rename jordan avenue- and I hope it will be named talifaro.

A

Avenue or perhaps talifaro way, effective october 8 2023.

A

And I hope we have judge child affair with us for many years to come.

A

But five years after her eventual passing, I hope we can add a george and.

A

Biola sign to the new street name, I can think of no.

A

Person or people better to represent our city and its values.

A

In this way, the second item I want to report on tonight is that I have today.

A

Also written a letter to gabe glowden, the managing director of cardinal stage.

A

Company, an organization which is leading an alliance of several performing arts.

A

Organizations to submit a proposal to the city for the.

A

Management and operation of our old city hall, known since 1990 as the john waldron arts center.

A

In that letter, I expressed my enthusiasm and support for the draft to their.

A

Proposal which they plan to present to the city administration this week and through it and this report tonight, I.

A

Want to go on the record of supporting the award of a historic three-way.

A

Restaurant alcohol permit to the building.

A

So that a cafe and bar may be built on the premises, I believe that it is the.

A

Missing ingredient that made the two previous efforts to keep the walden.

A

Running long term.

A

By ivy tech and before then, the bloomington area, arts, council.

A

Fiscally unviable, to quote from my letter.

A

I believe that your alliance with other performing arts groups represents a use.

A

Case for these permits, whose time has come while your business is not restaurant hospitality performing arts and.

A

Restaurants have been vital to each other's viability for as long as there have been food, drink and.

A

Art I believe that granting such a permit to a performing arts.

A

Not-For-Profit, who would then contract with a professional restaurateur to operate a cafe and bar in the building.

A

Is the right formula to ensure that it would directly contribute to the.

A

Cultural vitality of downtown bloomington- I am thus.

A

Prepared to sponsor a resolution that would declare the john waldron arts center, a quote site eligible to be permit premises.

A

Unquote, the first such bloomin was the first such permit to be granted in.

A

Bloomington under indiana code.

A

7.1-3-20-16, subsection g unquote.

A

I've asked mr lucas to publish this letter on the council website.

A

uh Here is going to post a link in the chat of tonight's zoom meeting.

A

I look forward to seeing the exciting plans for the future of the waldron.

A

Solidify and perhaps to seeing how much how such.

A

Permits can create more wonderful third places.

A

While supporting the missions of arts not-for-profits.

A

And of saving historic buildings downtown.

A

That's my report. Thank you. We go now to uh reports from the mayor and city.

A

Offices is there anyone from the mayor's office.

A

Who had like we'll list to report.

A

uh Seeing no report from the mayor's city offices last call.

A

We'll go to reports from council committees.

A

Seeing none we're going out of reports from members of the public, there will be.

A

20 minutes for this period, if there's any member of.

A

The public would like to speak to an item that is not on tonight's.

A

Agenda, please use the raise hand function in zoom.

A

Or type into the chat and uh clerk bolden will call.

A

Call one person at a time, adam clerk, do we have any takers for public comment.

A

Tonight, yes, first up, we have mr greg alexander.

B

If you'd like to go ahead.

H

Hi, thank you. I'm greg alexander, um this kind of seems unimportant.

H

uh But it's a lot easier than what I really came to talk about. So I just want.

H

To draw your attention to what about three weeks ago, you approved.

H

A rezone at a residential at 2300 west, tap.

H

And I brought up that this isn't possible for.

H

Multi-Family- and I just want to bring to your attention- there's an.

H

Example of that at 1414, west arlington, they had a petition. um I think back in.

H

In april or may in front of the plan commission uh to.

H

Have exactly the same kind of of addition to their home? They wanted to.

H

Build a unit on the back of their home, so the garage and their bedrooms and their kitchen will be on the same floor because they're aging in place and um but their.

H

Property was was non-conforming, it had been it's a.

H

You know it's on arlington road, so it's a it's a pretty big property, it really should have been subdivided, and so they built three houses on it.

H

And I think they're renting them out, I don't know, I think they might have some business operation in one of them and because of.

H

That their petition, basically it wasn't recommended by staff, and it basically fell apart at the plan commission.

H

And you know there's two lessons there. First off they.

H

They they wanted density, they had built three houses and they didn't want to.

H

Bulldoze them just because uh one of the houses needed needed an.

H

Adaptation and the other thing to keep in mind, is.

H

You know I'm not going to tell you who they are. I don't think they they need all that attention, but I'm just going to go out on a limb and say that, for example, council member sims had not personally toured their.

H

House, as a uh you know, historical oddity or.

H

Whatever I kind of put that in a little context,.

H

Those guys are now pretty well screwed in terms of their plans to to what their plans had been anyways and all because they have residential multi.

H

In the city and all their neighbors, of course, a residential multi air, commercial, it's just insane but anyways what I really came to talk about man- I I do anything other than talk about this.

H

But um I was just at third in washington last week on my.

H

Bicycle and that's where a young lady was killed.

H

um This february.

H

And I I was kind of curious to see the the street engineering.

H

That had gotten someone killed, you know just because I just happened to be right.

H

There, that's that's what I'm thinking about, and um I don't know if you guys have been there recently, but and uh maybe three.

H

Years ago, they they took out the right turn. Lane for cars said that cars aren't turning through the bike.

H

Lane, um but what that means is that if a car is turning, they are gonna have to go.

H

Through the bike lane, because it's the bike lane to the right of all the travel lanes, and so I'm standing in the spot, where a.

H

Car would have to roll over me to if they were gonna kill. Somebody.

H

The exact way that somebody was they were at a right turn on red.

H

Back in february, they were in a right turn on red and they made that turn over.

H

A pedestrian's body and if they were to do that today or.

H

Last week they would have had to do it over my body and my bicycle and.

H

Thankfully, a car came up behind me wanting to make a right turn and they saw me you know, I'm I'm I'm in a prime position.

H

I do my best to be visible, but I look up and what's been done, you.

H

Know is there a right turn, no right on red sign, no and.

H

You know I'm thinking if, if people actually use this right turn on red.

H

That's gonna really sabotage the bike lane and when they put the bike lane- and they really should have added a no right on.

H

Red sign, just as a matter of principle right there, we should have a lot of no right on red signs, and just incidentally, I happen to have looked up. um 10 years ago, I called uh uh susie.

H

Johnson on the phone- and she was kind enough to tell me that they only put right turn on red. Where there's been a problem in the past.

H

And here a girl was killed by right turn on red.

H

And there's no there's no sign saying no right turn on red. That's still a legal.

H

Turning movement there, like does our engineering department, even care, and I didn't even know when this was.

H

But just 24 hours previous somebody was killed just two blocks over from there.

H

Again on third street again, we had a consultant come and say.

H

This third street corridor, and this walnut and college corridor are.

H

Engineered like highways and you've got to fix that if you want to have people walking, if you want to make your plan happen, you've got to fix that so that those are not the most dangerous roads, because those are the most important roads. Those are roads. Pedestrians have no.

H

Choice but to use- and here we've got three people killed in what just barely.

H

Over a year, we need to do something quickly about.

H

This we should at least be doing the minimum of putting up a no right turn on.

H

Red sign when right turn on red kills someone does anybody care thanks for your time,.

A

Thank you is your further public comment. um Yes, next up, we have alex goodlab.

B

um Mr goodlatte, if you'd like to go ahead.

I

Oh, I don't know if I could follow that up after.

I

Greg's comment: my my heart goes out to him and.

I

And also the person that uh that was, you know that passed recently um and.

I

Though, on on a more positive note before I get, uh I guess.

I

The more negative comments I I um do um very much agree with uh jim sims.

I

With the sentiment of going out to vote very important and uh glad to hear the uh status report.

I

About um the uh the polls um and shout out to everybody working at.

I

The polls through uh these much needed times, okay, so now, I'm.

I

Gonna get into what I really was here to talk about, which is.

I

um The the budget uh for next week.

I

And what I hope kind of happens involving uh public safety and involving.

I

The police budget, um so as it stands.

I

uh There is about fifteen thousand dollars of assigns towards gas masks.

I

And there's about six thousand dollars assigned towards.

I

Rubber bullets- and um I I think I um share the sentiment with.

I

You know the the community in that um those are not good items for the.

I

Budget and uh they should be uh the city council,.

I

Should take whatever initiative they can to um remove those.

I

Items or remove that amount for those items.

I

I I get that um thanks piedmont smith, by the way for.

I

uh Responding to my email and and saying that.

I

You know what the city can do, which is uh cut.

I

um The amount of money assigned to that.

I

And you know the bus stops of the city in terms of.

I

Whether um whether they can you know because they can switch the items- and I.

I

Hope, the city! If, if they're watching at the mayor's office, that you don't do that um and uh and really quickly.

I

I don't want to take up too much time, but um I want to say why.

I

um I think that um these these items have to.

I

Have to go, which is that um it? What we heard from chief decoff? Why.

I

In particular, the gas masks are are going to be used.

I

The rubber bullets are part of crowd control as well, and.

I

Crowd control in general is just it's not effective.

I

And really the reason that chief decough is giving let's take it on good faith.

I

That you know he's being honest and that they're just using it for training purposes.

I

Okay, so they're doing military training, which is like it's not needed, and we we.

I

Agreed right that uh that we shouldn't have military training.

I

If anything, we should have anti-racist training which is 10k and- and you guys don't want that for blm.

I

So then we shouldn't have gas masks and we shouldn't have.

I

Military training either, um if that's, what it's going to be used for.

I

um Because chief decoff isn't concerned about riots in the town.

I

Right so um that that's pretty much all I have to say and.

I

Thanks for uh listening and I look forward to another meeting.

I

um You know next week, hopefully where we.

I

We uh iron this out.

I

And I yield thank you. Thank you. Are there.

A

Any other members of the public who like to speak, madam clerk, do you see anybody.

A

In the chat um there was.

B

A hand raised earlier that seems to have been put down. I don't know.

B

If mr shelton would still like to speak, if you would, you can unmute.

J

Well, just very briefly, I want to uh as a cast mr shelton.

A

Would you state your full name, please, I'm sorry, jim shelton.

J

uh Thank you and speak here frequently on behalf of casa.

J

And judge taliaferro was for years and years and years the juvenile court judge.

J

And she really set the standard for how that should be.

J

Conducted judge galvin has followed along.

J

Along with judge hill and now uh judge harvey, and I think it would be.

J

A great idea to recognize all that she has done for.

J

This community and for the youth of this community, which continues now through what judge calvin.

J

And what judge harvey are doing so? Thank you.

A

Thank you, so any other public comment. Please use the raise hand, function and.

A

Zoom or type into the chat second call.

A

A

Seeing no for the public comment we'll move on now to appointments to boards.

A

And commissions, are there any.

A

Seeing none we move now to legislation for second reading and resolutions.

E

Mr president, I move that resolution 20-14.

E

Be introduced and read by the clerk by title and synopsis only.

E

Bacon, we have a motion in a second will. The clerk. Please call the role in the.

A

Motion to introduce.

B

Yes, councilmember rosenberger, yeah sims, yes,.

B

Volun? Yes, human smith, yes flaherty! Yes,.

B

Smith, yes, sandberg, yes, brella! Yes,.

B

Scandalory yeah motion passes with a clerk read by title.

A

Synopsis only please.

B

Yes, uh resolution 2014 resolution proposing an ordinance.

B

Modifying local income tax allocations in monroe county.

B

And casting 58.28 votes in favor of the ordinance.

B

Regarding adjusting the allocations between the public safety.

B

Entering point and general public safety purposes, tax rates without changing.

B

Other allocations or the total expenditure tax rate, the.

B

Synopsis is as follows: resolution 2014 proposes an.

B

Ordinance to the monroe county, local income, tax council.

B

That would modify the allocation of tax revenues between two components of the.

B

Local income, tax expenditure tax rate, this reallocation will affect the public.

B

Safety answering point and general public safety rates.

B

Authorized under indiana code, 6 3.66 without changing other components.

B

Of the expenditure rate or the expenditure rate overall, with.

B

Adoption of the ordinance, the tax rate for the psf would decrease to.

B

0.0594 percent, representing 23.76 percent of the total.

B

And the tax rate for the public safe for public safety would increase to.

B

0.1906, representing 76.24 of the total.

B

The reallocation follows the recommendation of the public safety.

B

Local income tax committee of the county income tax council.

B

And would go into effect on january first, twenty twenty one.

B

You do not have a committee recommendation.

A

Thank you, mr president, I move that resolution 20-14 be adopted.

C

Thank you all right who is here to present uh this.

A

Resolution that would be me, although there are.

F

Members of the ps lit committee that may uh also want to uh to chime in.

F

On the deliberations of that committee over the summer and.

F

August, if I could share my screen just briefly.

F

Can everybody see that spreadsheet? Yes, so the.

F

The resolution before you tonight and I'm sorry I should have introduced myself. My name is stephen lucas, I'm the council, uh attorney and administrator. The resolution before you tonight is an.

F

Annual uh step that the tax council.

F

Has to make in order to.

F

Allocate the right amount of money for central dispatch, as you can see in the.

F

Chart the light green row, mr lucas.

A

Can you move the chart over just a little bit? We can't see the left edge.

A

Well, oh, I see okay, yes, so I was about to describe the left edge.

F

The light green row: okay, sorry, is the uh amount of local income tax revenue.

F

That has been allocated to the public safety answering point. The psap.

F

Which is our central dispatch, as you can see over the last couple of.

F

Years uh I will highlight so in 2019.

F

Dispatch received a little over three million dollars.

F

From the public safety, local income tax, their their budget's made up of.

F

Of both this revenue, source and e-911 funds.

F

So, each year central dispatch proposes a certain portion of their budget to come.

F

Out of the public safety, local income tax and based.

F

On that amount, which this year, their budget.

F

Calls for two million two hundred and forty seven thousand four hundred and ninety dollars to be funded out of the public safety, local income tax, the monroe county, local income tax council.

F

Which the bloomington city council is a member of.

F

Must adjust the allocation of tax revenues between.

F

uh Psap and between general public safety purposes.

F

uh Which is what is hi. Sorry, give me just a second: what is.

F

Highlighted in the uh in the orange rows here so the.

F

Public safety, local income tax is estimated to generate.

F

Just short of 9.5 million dollars in order for psap to get their.

F

Proposed amount for their budget, the rate needs to be adjusted to 0.0594.

F

Percent and the remaining revenue- that's not.

F

Allocated to psap would be distributed to the four units.

F

Of government, according to a formula set out in.

F

Statute so, um and just to make it quite clear.

F

This action would not change the overall tax rate.

F

This does not change the amount of money. Any anyone in the public is actually.

F

Paying overall, this simply adjusts the amounts being allocated for between.

F

The dispatch center and general public safety services.

F

And with that, I'm happy to answer any questions or I'm not sure if any of the.

F

Public safety, local income tax committee members wanted to to chime in, but this this does follow from the recommendation.

F

Of that committee's work uh over the summer, thank you, mr lucas.

A

Would the chair of the public safety uh lit committee like to speak to this.

A

Or any member of the committee.

F

The chair of that committee was actual actually cheryl munson of the monroe.

F

County council this year.

F

There were four city council members that served on that committee.

F
