City of Charleston Ways & Means Meeting - October 10, 2017
B

A

I
did
have
one
question
on
item
five:
I
didn't
see
it
in
that
that
grant
usually
what
happens
and
maybe
I'm,
not
sure
who
is
here
that
can
answer
the
question,
but
normally
we
get
these
grants.
We
have
to
fund
these
positions
for
a
year
or
two
or
three,
and
then
it
says
we
have
no
match,
but
then
we
have
to
come
up
with
the
whole
thing.
Is
that
the
case
with
these,
and
if
that's
the
case,
how
long
does
that
last.
E
E
C
E
C
E
A
F
C
C
D
C
Got
a
motion
a
second
any
questions
or
comments.
All
those
in
favor
say
aye
any
opposed
item.
Six
is
approved
traffic
and
transportation
approval
to
submit
an
application
matching
funds
for
the
2017
Tiger
discretionary
grants,
program
to
fund
the
design
and
construction
of
a
standalone
bridge
way
adjacent
to
the
existing
after
Ashley
River
Bridge
to
connect
West
ash
in
downtown
for
non-motorized
uses.
This
is
a
proposed
city
match
of
1.5
million
from
the
FY
17
general
fund
reserve.
The
grant
application
is
due
October
16
2017.
F
So
we
are
getting
from
the
west
edge
grant
that
word
questions
sorry
from
the
west
edge
bond
that
we
just
got
for
three
million
dollars.
1.5
million
dollars
of
that
will
pay
back
the
general
fund
for
expenditures
that
we've
already
spent
and
so
we'll
use
that
will
go
into
the
general
fund
reserves
and
that
is
the
1.5
million.
F
A
A
One
I
do
see
where
bridges
are
eligible
and
I
wanted
to
know
what
would
be
the
cost
to
replace
the
existing
bridge
with
the
bike
lane
and
paths
for
people
to
walk,
etcetera,
etcetera
because
in
going
through
the
NOFA,
if
you
do
sort
of
a
joint
application
with
the
state,
the
county
and
other
jurisdictions,
the
amount
that
you
can
apply
for
is
much
higher
I.
Think
it's
as
high
as
50
50
mil
it's
a
grant
that
we
are
applying
for
goes
up
to
about
25
million.
G
The
issue
with
the
entire
bridge
is
the
fact
that
it's
not
even
in
SC
do
T's
ten-year
plan.
Nobody
has
been
able
we've
asked
multiple
times,
but
nobody
has
been
able
to
give
us
even
a
sense
of
when
that's,
even
in
the
thought
process
of
the
State
Department
of
Transportation.
Also
the
steering
committee
that
County
to
put
together
for
the
Crosstown
to
study
that
area.
G
They're
thinking
you
know
2050,
you
know
they
there's
really
no
timeline
on
what
that,
when
that's
coming
in
that
process,
but
within
this
grant
process
we're
grateful
that
we've
been
able
to
get
support,
sedl
T
secretaries.
In
the
midst
of
writing
a
letter
we
got
the
county
support,
have
city
senator
Graham
just
sent
in
their
support
today.
Sanford
Kempson
I
mean
the
support
in
terms
of
the
congressional
delegation
and
then
also
the
support
of
other
organizations
of.
A
G
G
G
Mean
the
other
caveat
just
to
put
in
place,
which
were
grateful
for,
but
also
keeps
us
accountable,
is
different
than
other
Tiger
grant
rounds.
We
have
until
2020
to
be
project
ready
the
expectation
that
we
will
be
project
ready
for
a
full
bridge
way
that
would
include
the
multi-use
path.
There's
there's
some
questions
around
that
possibility,
but
we
know
that,
with
the
studies
that
have
already
gone
on
the
work,
that's
already
gone
forth
to
be
able
to
make
this
crossing
that
there's
an
opportunity
to
meet
that
particular
deadline.
A
Yeah,
so
are
we
suggesting
that,
when
we
talked
about
the
can
of
cantilever
on
that
bridge
that
we
did
not
come
up
with
some
plans
or
something
with
regard
to
it?
We've
got
to
know
something
about
the
bridge.
If
we're
gonna
ask
add
something
to
it,
we
need.
We
should
know
the
grading
of
that
bridge.
Where
does
it
stand?
Should
it
be
replaced?
When
should
it
be
replaced
and
whether
or
not
what
we're
doing
okay
good
but
hrus
the
replacement
of
the
bridge?
A
That's
all
I'm
saying
if
it
cost
50
million
dollars
to
replace
the
bridge.
This
is
gonna
cost
us,
but
18
mil
am
I
correct.
Yes,
sir,
this
is
gonna
cost
us
about
18
mil,
then
we're
the
32
million
dollar
shortfall,
but
we
may
be
able
to
get
I,
don't
want
to
belabor
it,
but
I
think
you
understand
where
I'm,
where
I'm
going
with
this.
Of
course,
I'm
gonna
support
what
you've
submitted,
but
I
just
like
to
both
informed
in
terms
of
what
are
the
other
alternatives
that
we
might
have
understood.
G
G
A
G
So
I
looked
into
that
and
when
we
got
the
Tiger
grant
the
last
round
that
first
phase
was
specific
to
surface
transportation
improvements
that
money
was
leveraged
in
order
to
do
the
drainage
portion,
which
brought
it
up
to
20
to
23
million
or
otherwise
so
I
mean
that
that's
where
the
opportunity
could
go
from
that
in
terms
of
what
our
leveraging
is.
I
think
the
thing
for
us
is
getting
towards
getting
the
grant
process
and
then
we're
open
to
what
options
are
from
there.
I.
B
G
We
looked
at
there's
two
options
that
we
looked
at.
We
looked
at
what
a
cantilever
system
would
be
for
an
entire
portion
of
the
James
Island
connector,
which
is
extremely
expensive
in
the
range
of
50
million
dollars
of
just
for
a
cantilever
system.
One
adopts
other
options
that
we
looked
at
was
completion
of
the
West,
Ashley
green
way
and
then
hooking
like
complete
the
Greenway
and
then
have
a
two-way
bike.
G
Ped
trail
that
will
connect
onto
the
side
of
the
connector
for
that
short
portion
and
possibly
drop
down
where
the
marina
is
I'm,
similar
to
places
like
we
looked
at
Jacksonville
and
some
other
places
where,
if
you've
been
to
a
large
stadium
where
they
have
the
zigzag,
walking
path
down,
something
like
that
that
would
come
down
and
land
in
that
lockable
portion.
I
think
the
things
that
kind
of
made
that
put
a
price
tag
on
er.
That
was
in
the
range
of
about
thirteen
million.
G
Oh
the
two
problems
with
that
are
one
where
exactly
to
land
to
the
the
grade
level.
So
one
of
the
things
we
were
concerned
about
is,
if
we're
going
to
be
providing
this
type
of
pathway
one.
How
do
we
make
sure
it's
safe?
How
do
we
make
sure
that
it's
an
option
for
whoever,
no
matter
what
walk
level
ad
a
you
know,
bike
level?
They
might
be
they
bike
for
the
first
time
in
20
years
or
their.
You
know
a
cyclist
for,
however,
long
that
that's
there
so
that
grade
level
is
pretty
high.
G
So
there
were
some
questions
about
what
that
would
look
like
what
that
drop
down
would
be,
and
if
there
are,
we
don't
know
if
County
is
looking
at
how
to
unwrap
that
circle
area
near
the
connector
made.
It
would
that
infer
with
that
potential
project
there,
but
it
was
definitely
looked
at
price-wise-
is.
G
G
C
H
White,
what
customer
Gregory
brings
up
a
good
point.
I
presume
we
haven't
really
done
any
engineering
yet
and
study
of
the
bridge
to
determine
if,
in
fact,
we
can
feasibly
do
this.
This
is
sort
of
more
theoretical.
At
this
point,
that
I
mean
I'm.
Assuming
that
we
haven't
actually
had
an
engineer
go
out
and.
H
G
H
G
I
I
B
G
B
B
If
the
lanes
on
the
World
War
one
bridge
were
to
if
you're
coming
from
town
west
SAS,
you
were
to
shift
one
foot
to
the
left,
we
would
at
least
make
it
safer
on
the
world
wall,
one
bridge
because
even
with
this
bridge,
people
still
going
to
use
the
World
War
1
bridge,
why
don't
we
make
it
safer?
That's
all
I'm
saying!
Instead
of
having
a
for
four
and
a
half
foot
pathway,
we
should
have
almost
an
8
foot
pathway,
seven
and
a
half,
maybe
seven
foot
nine
ten
inches.
B
If
we
had
this
bridge
because
the
truth,
the
truth
about
it.
If
somebody's
coming
down
San
Andres
Boulevard
coming
from
Old
Town
Rhoda
st.
Andrews
Boulevard,
they
not
gonna,
go
up
Wesley
drive
and
cut
across
Bali
and
even
come
on
this
bridge.
If
it's
on
the
side
of
the
legree
bridge.
My
point
is
people
using
the
World
War
one
bridge
every
day
and
we
don't
do
anything
to
make
it
safer
and
we
do
have
you
talked
about
changing
strikes,
that's
what
we
talking
about
changing
stripes
on
the
lane.
G
I
mean
I'm
gonna
agreement.
If
we're
gonna
be
creating
these
opportunities,
then
we
need
to
be
creating
it
in
both
ways.
I
think
the
conundrum
is
that
our
our
city,
definition
of
measurement
of
success
for
Transportation,
differs
from
our
other
agency
connections
right.
So,
if
we're
talking
about
multimodal
ISM,
we
might
be
talking
about
safe
accessibility
of
all
modes
and
that
might
be
different
in
other
places.
So
I
think
that's
what
we
you're
part
of
my
job
is
to
advocate
in
that
regard,
for
us
to
make
that
shift.
G
So
we
can
make
sure
that
that
safety
is
there
I
think
the
other
piece
is
that
we
actually
and
we
had
share
seeking
so
part
of
it.
We
had
a
shred
with
the
cities
of
Vancouver
and
New
York,
who
actually
took
a
look
at
this
entire
project
and
gave
us
suggestions
based
off
of
the
work
that
they
were
able
to
do
both
on
bridge
ways
having
connected
to
bridge
ways
and
the
big
issue
that
we're
definitely
going
to
have
to
work
on
in
going
about
this
process
is
the
intersections
on
both
sides.
G
If
we
can't,
if
we
can't
get
those
together,
then
it's
not
going
to
be
efficient
for
the
cross
way
for
the
bridge
and
that's
the
biggest
conundrum.
What
we
will
refer
to
over
and
over
again
is
somebody
might
enjoy
themselves
while
they're
on
the
particular
piece
of
infrastructure,
but
if
it's
dangerous
for
them
to
get
on
dangerous
for
them
to
get
off,
they're
not
gonna
use
it.
So
those
are
the
pieces
that
we
have
to
make
sure
are
together
free,
Thank,
You.
Mr.
Benton,
yes,
sir.

aye
any
opposed
the
eyes.
Have
it
13
approval
of
change
order.
C
K
Thank
You.
Mr.
chairman,
this
item
is
that
I
guess
the
final
phase
3
of
the
Market
Street
drainage
project-
and
this
is
what
we're
gonna
see
up
at
the
surface
and
I
know
it's
gone
through
a
number
of
changes,
nothing
major!
But
there
here's
another
change
order.
Is
there
an
updated
schematic
somewhere
that
we
can
see
to
take
a
look
at
what
it's
actually
gonna?
Look
like
at
the
surface
around
the
market
and
all
that.
K
L
J
There
is
that
there
is
an
updated
schematic
which
would
be
happy
to
share,
and
one
of
the
holdups
of
this
project
has
been
to
get
the
easements
in
place
for
the
placement
of
what
do.
They
call
the
generator
not
in
generators
for
the
electrical
infrastructure
for
SC
and
G,
and
that's
finally
all
been
resolved
as
about
a
month
or
two
ago.
Sc
ng
is
now
doing
the
engineering
that
they
said
they
had
to
wait
until
they
had
the
easements
for,
and
so
when
that's
done,
we
can
finally
move
forward
with
this
project
and.
K
Then,
thank
you.
Miss
Meredith,
one
of
the
issues
is
I
think
you
talked
about
the
Transformers
for
hilarion
fullness
electrical
delivery
rather
along
there
and,
as
you
know,
backing
up
to
the
market
going
north
through
Anson
Borough
as
a
part
of
the
Gilyard
deal,
is
putting
all
power
underground
and
there
was
that
sort
of
void
between
Pinkney
Street
and
the
market,
where
we
actually
did
an
engineer,
putting
the
lines
underground.
K
There
was
going
to
actually
be
a
block
that
was
just
not
underground,
so
I'm
interested
to
see
how
that
all
got
worked
out
in
this
streetscaping
project,
because
the
transformers
4
the
under
grounding
on
the
south
end
are
going
to
have
to
be
along
that
market.
So
a
long
time
in
coming
just
like
to
see
how
that's
all
going
to
get
put
together.
A
F
C
Other
comments
or
questions
all
those
in
favor
of
item
14,
say
aye
hi,
any
opposed
item
14
is
approved.
15
is
a
public-service.
Approval
of
the
spring
fishing
ii
got
a
motion
a
second
on
that
item.
Any
discussion,
all
those
in
favor
say
aye
any
opposed,
that's
approved
item
16
is
our
real
estate
committee
report,
chairman
white
Thank,.
H
You,
mr.
chairman,
the
Committee
on
real
estate
yesterday
October
9th
3:30
here,
City
Hall,
we
heard
a
number
of
items
item
a
was
a
member,
an
agreement
between
the
city
and
Lola
Lowcountry
low
line
that
also
included
a
purchase
agreement
between
the
city
and
low
country,
low
line
two
point:
five:
five
million
dollars
or
about
ten
point,
nine,
eight
acres.
We
also
her
an
item
for
the
purchase
of
parcel
of
land
off
F
Street
for
six
hundred
seventy
eight
thousand
dollars
between
the
city
and
Norfolk
Southern
Railway.
H
We
also
heard
an
item
for
purchase
and
sale
agreement
win
city
in
Norfolk,
Southern
Railway
for
parcel
off
Mount,
Pleasant
Street,
one
point:
six,
one,
seven
two
hundred
and
then
finally
had
to
annexations
seven
river
at
Riverdale,
Drive,
1320,
orth,
Edgewater,
Drive.
All
of
those
items
were
approved
unanimously
and
I'll
move
to
the
adoption.
Second,.
D
Know
this
I
know
this
project
is
a
long
way
of
forgetting
planes
and
getting
completed.
Just
remember
you
got
H
and
F
Street
back.
It
was
just
a
neighborhood
between
King
and
another
restaurant
right
now,
I,
don't
know
how
we're
gonna
separate
this
low-lying
project
from
that
neighborhood,
but
just
take
it
in
mind
if
people
that
live
on
those
two
streets
back
dates
to
majority
those
houses
are
bought
from
people
who
bought
from
habitat.
So
we
need
to
take
a
look
at
this
compete
multi-millions
of
dollars
project.
D
Let's
go
go
back
there,
how
we
want
to
separate
the
low
line
from
the
neighbor
to
make
sure
that
we
all
drive
those
people,
probably
tax
revenue,
public-private
partnership,
so
the
city
has
something
to
do
with
it.
So
we
need
to
look
at
what
we
might
have
done.
Ten
or
twelve
years
in
the
lake
area
with
Magnolia
bought
all
that
property
and
they
did
something
to
protect
the
people
and
Rosemount.
D
So
I
think
we
need
to
take
back
and
look
at
that
and
see
what
we
could
do
to
protect
those
people
from
those
two
low
streets
back
there.
Now,
when
we
put
this
big
project,
I
guess
right
next
door,
so
there's
something
that
we
need
to
do
some
research
on
and
take
a
look
at
it.
How
the
Magnolia
project
and
state
do
t
know
them.
They
worked
out
some
fences
kind
of
take
those
people
and
in
the
road
we
need
to
make
sure
that
we
look
at
Eddie.
D
So
we
can
do
to
protect
those
two
little
streets
in
there
being
squeezed
up
now
with
all
the
restaurants
along
King,
Street,
Leone's
and
little
Jackson,
another
one
just
opened
up
right
there
and
they
got
to
low
street
right
behind
them
between
them
in
the
railroad
tracks.
So,
let's
think
about
the
citizens
that
live
back
there,
especially
the
lower-income
so
different
people
that
most
of
them
will
go
by
Habitat
for
Humanity.
So
we
wanted
to
take
them
and
make
sure
that
that
neighborhood
it
continued
to
be
a
neighborhood
and
nothing
they're,
not
compute
forth
out.
M
That's
what
some
of
the
things
I
was
going
to
ask
the
city
to
look
into
because
that's
party
district,
you
know
that
I
represent
to
the
council.
Lewis
had
represented
previously
the
NAS
over
to
me.
So
I
was
when
asked
that
same
questions,
because
they
have
a
lot
of
problems
in
there.
We
don't
want
to
squeeze
them
out
and
you
can
perceive
you
have
to
make
sure
that
we
are
protect
them
in
all
cost.
M
J
In
effect,
it's
going
to
happen
just
over
two
and
a
half
million
dollars
to
help
pay
for
the
right
of
way,
and
that
includes
folks,
like
Justin
Ferrer
who's
with
us
this
evening
and
Ron
Owens
with
the
Post
and
Courier.
There
are
others
who
will
be
contributing
to
that
effort,
so
I
wanted
to
recognize
them
and
thank
them
because
the
the
improvements
for
quality
of
life
in
this
part
of
the
city
will
be
demonstrable.
J
The
connectivity
that
will
be
achieved
for
particularly
for
pedestrians
and
bikers
in
our
city
will
be
remarkable
and
we
will
tie
in
drainage
improvements
along
with
the
ownership
of
this
property,
because
some
of
you
know
that
the
railroad
put
in
two
years
ago
was
put
on
high
ground,
and
then
they
built
it
up
a
little
bit.
I
guess
they
didn't
want
the
locomotives
to
run
through
through
flooded
flooded
areas,
and
so
it
created
almost
a
dam
and
there's
a
sizable
part
of
our
city
that
would
naturally
drain
over
to
the
new
market
Creek
area.
J
That
basically,
is
prevented
to
do
so
because
of
the
geography
of
the
low
line.
So
our
ownership
of
that
will
help
help
achieve
some
solutions
there
and
kind
of
as
an
adjunct.
From
our
discussion
yesterday,
I've
asked
US
city
staff
to
proceed,
not
just
with
a
grant
application
that
city
council
approved
a
couple
of
months
ago
for
a
study
well
for
a
project
design
of
the
drainage
solution.
J
We
need
for
King
and
Q
G
Street
that
rather
that
be
a
grant
application
that
we
proceed
with
with
the
RFP
in
order
to
get
a
design
of
a
solution
to
that
flooding
issue
and
an
owning
the
little
island
will
help
us
accomplish
that,
and
so
that
brought
up
the
matter
of
well.
If
we
hadn't
done
the
design
on
that
drainage
solution
yeah.
Why
should
we
proceed
with
the
streetscape
improvements?
J
Just
yet
on
key
G
Street,
you
know
get
the
drainage
done
first
and
then
we'll
make
it
look
pretty
and
councilman
Waring
had
the
suggestion
just
yesterday
that
perhaps
we
asked
to
redirect
some
dollars
I
think
it's
over
two
million
dollars
that
is
dedicated
to
that
huge
E,
Street
improvement
project
and
asked
that
it
be
used
for
something
that
shovel-ready
now,
which
is
affordable,
housing.
So
I've
looked
into
that
matter.
Just
today,
account
remember
wearing
I,
think
it's
a
good
idea.
J
They
may
say
no,
but
at
least
we
can
ask
and
help
redirect
that
money
to
help
both
drainage
and
affordable
housing.
So
my
hats,
off
to
all
the
folks
with
the
friends
and
the
donors,
I
think
there's
going
to
be
a
multitude
of
benefits
from
this
project
and
a
great
thing
for
the
city
regarding
property
values.
Councilmember
Lewis,
you
know
what
has
happened
since
the
times
you
mentioned
was
that
the
state
law
has
at
least
put
in
place.
As
long
as
you
continued
on
your
homes.
J
You
know
there
are
limits
to
the
increase
in
property,
property
values,
so
there's
some
protection
now
that
didn't
exist
of
you
know,
10
or
15
years
ago,
when,
before
that,
what
they
get
in
the
Magnolia
development
for
the
Rosemont
area
was
have
a
fun
so
that
if
citizens,
whose
property
taxes
rose
dramatically,
which
really
shouldn't
be
allowed
by
state
law,
now
that
they
would
be
able
to
apply
for
some
property
tax
relief
in
order
to
cover
their
increase
property
tax
bill.
I'm,
certainly
open
to
looking
at
that.
Mr.
M
The
city's
concerned,
because
I
was
looking
strictly
at
what
was
gonna,
be
cost
about
taxpayer
because
we
would
have
to
pay
it
back.
So
I
wanted
to
make
sure
that,
even
though
line
organization
in
May
was
coming
up
with
this
money
that
the
city
don't
have
to
pay
off
his
mind
and
sell
and
I
was
adamant
about
that
and
I
spoke
to
the
mayor
about
it.
So
after
the
changes
came
and
I
started,
looking
at
the
different
prices,
wise,
nice,
okay,
this
might
work
and
I
say:
will
it
be
a
beautiful
idea?
M
What
they're
doing
with
the
bowline
I
don't
have
a
problem
with
that
only
thing:
I
was
problem
with
making
sure
that
someone
else
is
coming
to
the
table
beside
the
city
of
Charleston
and
decided
to
be
paying
all
the
money
out
and
making
sure
we
get
this
drainage
done,
and
things
like
that
because
that's
my
two
main
priority
sitting
here
is
drainage
and
housing
strictly
and
all
the
things
I
look
at
it,
but
I
want
to
put
the
horse
before
the
cart.
I
want
to
make
sure
they'd
be
solved.
C
I
just
want
to
make
one
thing:
I
want
to
ask
a
legal
staff.
Yesterday,
as
a
real
estate
committee,
my
reading
of
that
memorandum
of
agreement,
there
was
no
mention
at
all
that
the
low
line
could
be
used
specific
or
for
drainage.
It
had
a
whole
lot
of
other
uses,
but
it
did
not
mention
the
word
drainage
anywhere
in
the
document
and
in
our
recommendation
to
the
committee.
N
Since
you
a
red
line
version
of
the
Memorandum
of
Understanding
between
the
city
and
the
friends-
and
it
does
now
specifically
allow
for
drainage
improvements
along
with
park
improvements
and
that's
also
addressed
not
just
the
city's
sole
discretion
on
the
amount
of
money
that
we
spend
on
the
improvements.
But
the
timing
of
them.
M
Also,
thank
you
and
the
committee
for
bringing
it
up
at
the
real
estate
committee
meeting,
but
it
was
brought
up
and
I
was
mentioned
that
was
included
into
it
and
I
heard
about
that
one
on
early
yesterday.
Are
they
that
this
was
happening
and
they
it
was
when
something
that
you
brought
up
and
I
said.
I
want
to
thank
you
for
doing
that,
because
all
those
things
was
the
things
that
I
was
thinking
about
and
has
a
reservation
about
well
and.
C
A
Question
for
the
mayor
mayor,
you
mentioned
that
we're
going
to
we're
going
to
move
forward
to
try
to
request
the
two
million
dollars
that
we
got
mitigation
with
the
with
the
bridge
site
back,
but
isn't
an
additional
1.5
million
that
we
have
for
King
Yugi
between
King
and
meeting
in
our
tips.
Wouldn't
that
give
us
another
1.5
to
go
directly
toward
the
huger
drainage.
A
J
N
J
H
N
It
will
it
will
be
a
policy
that
will
protect
the
city
for
the
life
of
its
ownership
of
the
land,
for
the
full
amount
of
the
purchase
price
that
we
pay,
and
that
is
a
contingency
of
closing
and
as
I
told
the
committee
yesterday,
we've
continued
to
dig
to
dig
and
with
some
creative
thinking.
We
feel
confident
we'll
be
able
to
do
that.
L
You
mr.
chairman
I
wanted
sure
about
the
councilman
Gregory,
Lewis
and
Mitchell.
It
was
intriguing
to
me
and
I
serve
on
the
real
estate
committee
between
it's.
A
very
favorable
vote
last
night
yesterday
is
that
a
railroad
causes
possibly
some
of
the
flooding
some
of
the
drainage
issues
right
through
the
middle
that
area.
It
was
a
tricky
to
me
because
you
all
know:
district
10,
Church,
Creek
drainage,
Plaza
and.
A
L
Some
suspicions
that
a
railroad
out
there
causes
similar
situations,
but
what
I
wanted
to
assure
you
was.
The
committee
had
a
really
very
lengthy
discussion
and
a
good
discussion
about
the
drainage
issues
and,
of
course,
we
roped
in
the
the
affordable
housing
it
should
be,
but
my
compliments
to
councilman
wearing
and
counseling
annuity
because
with
they
come
up
with
some
terrific
ideas
that
the
committee
supported
last
night,
so
I'm
obviously
going
to
support
this
certain
ways
in
these
and
counseling,
but
I
wanted
to
get
that
out.
Thank
you.
Thank.
D
I
want
to
thank
you,
mr.
mayor,
for
being
so
knowledgeable
about
the
Rose
month
and
the
deal
that
they
worked
out,
because
that's
important
to
me
and
that's
important
to
the
city
I
want
to
thank
mr.
Knapp
mark
now,
because
he
took
me
around
to
some
he's
been
about
16
years
ago,
and
one
of
the
witness
that
we
discussed
was
a
new
market.
Creek
and
I've
been
preaching
that
in
here
for
years,
but
the
city
and
staff
has
been
turning
a
deaf
ear
to
the
new
market,
Creek
that
all
of
a
sudden.
D
We
have
the
same
problem
on
line
speed
because
the
d-o-t
created
a
problem
update
three
or
four
years
ago
and
I'm
told
now
that
the
engineer
that
worked
on
that
area
as
no
longer
was
DLT.
We've
got
some
serious
public
safety
problems
in
this
city
when
it
come
the
water
and
I
hope
I,
don't
take
another
20
years
to
get
us
all
to
somebody's
Sorel.
We
need
another
low
line.
Let's
solve
this
problem
on
lines
and
king.
Let's
get
these
problem
solved,
so
people
could
be
driving
safely
through
the
city.
D
B
B
But
just
in
case
mr.
mayor,
we
missed
anybody.
I
know
we
kind
of
glossed
over
our
staff,
but
I
mean
this
is
the
to
me
and
I.
Think
too
many
in
the
room.
This
is
maybe
not
as
many
millions
but
just
as
unique
is
the
public-private
partnership
put
together
on
the
Gilyard.
So
this
could
be
a
new
stand.
That
move
us
forward
is
any
way
we
could
ask
the
people
to
stand,
who
had
anything
to
do
with
this
directly
or
indirectly
in
particularly
in
the
private
sector.
