From YouTube: City Council Meeting of 9-26-22
Description
City of Chelsea
C
A
Latinos
have
had
a
profound
and
positive
influence
in
our
community
and
our
country
through
their
music
literature,
food,
strong
commitment
to
Family,
Faith,
hard
work
and
service
to
Country.
They
have
a
hands
and
shape
our
local
and
National
character
with
century-old
Traditions
that
reflect
the
multi-ethnic
and
Multicultural
customs
of
their
community.
A
The
Hispanic
and
Latino
Community
Grew
From
50
million
16
of
the
U.S
population,
2010
to
62.1
million
18
in
2020,
and
the
data
shows
that
Latino
Americans
thought
more
businesses
per
capita
than
any
other
racial
ethic
group
in
the
United
States
and
while
Latino
owned
employee
businesses
are
concentrated
in
cities
and
states
with
large,
dense
Latino
populations
such
as
Los
Angeles,
Miami
and
New.
York
45
of
the
50
states
are
an
increase
in
latino-owned
businesses
from
2012
to
2021.
A
Therefore,
let
it
be
that
these
Chelsea
city
council
herebyes
hereby
support
September
15
through
October
15th
of
2022
as
the
Hispanic
Heritage
Month,
and
encourages
participation
in
this
special
annual
tribute
by
learning
and
celebrating
the
generations
of
Latino
Americans
who
have
positively
influenced
and
enriched
our
nation
and
Society.
What
is
the
wish
of
the
council.
E
F
Rather
than
I
just
want
to
congratulate
the
month
of
October
as
we
get
ready
to
celebrate
this
infested
month
for
the
Hispanic
Community
as
it
states
in
the
resolution,
it's
just
a
great
opportunity
that
every
month
we
get
a
chance
to
celebrate
the
accomplishments
and
all
sort
of
fabric
of
how
the
United
States
of
America
has
been
brought
together
on
the
backs
on
the
work
on
the
dignity
and
the
support
so
I'm
excited
about.
You
know
some
of
the
festivities
that's
going
to
happen.
C
A
A
G
The
more
we
prioritize
public
transit,
the
more
we
reduce
emissions
and
improve
our
air
quality
and
public
health,
and
also
you
know
it's
not
an
opinion
or
sort
of
subjective,
but
it
really
is.
We
have
seen
the
data
of
reduced
crashes
and
pedestrian
and
vehicular
crashes
over
60
percent
reduction,
and
so
that's
a
really
big
deal
for
the
safety
of
our
community
and
I.
Think
that
yeah.
That
does
mean
that
traffic
has
slowed
down,
and
that
does
mean
that
there's
a
little
bit
more
traffic
on
Broadway.
G
But
what
that
also
means
is
that
brought
the
buses
that
are
going
on.
Broadway
are
prioritized
the
same
way
that
cars
are,
and
so
it's
not
about
getting
rid
of
cars.
It's
not
about
anti-people
who
drive
cars.
I
have
a
car
I
dropped
on
Broadway,
but
the
reality
is
that
people
who
drive
cars
have
an
option
to
take
a
different
route
and
that
people
who
are
on
buses
really
don't
they're
stuck
on
the
buses
when
there's
traffic.
G
So
I
just
encourage
you
to
vote
in
support
of
keeping
the
bus
lane
permanent
and
it
really
is
prioritizing
buses
across
the
region
for
the
entire
MBTA.
The
111
is
one
of
the
most
overcrowded
buses
in
the
entire
line,
not
just
within
the
bus
system,
but
within
the
trains
also,
so
that
really
speaks
to
the
to
the
high
need
of
bus
prioritization
in
Chelsea.
Thank
you.
A
A
Council
Brown
asked
that
we
accept
and
file
the
minutes
of
the
meeting
from
the
last
from
September
12th
under
suspension,
seeing
none
that
is
accepted
and
filed.
We
now
have
communications
from
the
city
manager.
Can
you
make
communication
received
from
the
city
manager
ambrosino
regarding
the
requested
approval
for
an
increase
in
the
school
department
budget,
FY
23.
A
Seeing
no
objection
we're
waiving
the
reading.
Moving
on
to
the
next
communication,
we
have
communication
received
from
the
city
manager
regarding
the
ordinance
amendments
to
streamline
event
permitting
their
council
is
writing
to
request
that
city
council
consider
some
amendments
to
our
existing
ordinances
in
order
to
streamline
the
permitting
of
special
permits
throughout
the
city.
A
This
past
spring

Civic

Grant
from
Mass
development
to
help
us
review
our
existing
ordinances
and
improve
permitting
for
events
in
the
city
right
now,
even
for
small
events
during
numerous
departments
to
which
an
applicant
must
confer
before
finalizing
a
permit
making
the
process
quite
onerous.
With
these
proposed
changes,
we
hope
to
streamline
this
process.
A
The
significant
substantiative
changes
appear
in
the
attached
document,
as
amended
for
Amendment
14.,
specifically
that,
on
an
amendment,
provides
that

smaller

and
require

for
larger
special
events.
The
new
ordinance
grants
licensed
exhibition
to
the
ability
to
issue
one
comprehensive
permit
the
approved
the
proposed
attachment.
A
A
Foreign
Council
Robertson
asked
that
we
accept
and
file
the
communication
suspension,
seeing
no
objection
we'll
move
on
to
the
next
communication
received
from
the
city
manager
regarding
Appropriations
from
the
general
stabilization
fund,
their
counselors
I'm
writing
to
request
funding
for
several
projects
that
need
attention.
This
fall
because
free
cash
will
likely
not
be
certified
until
mid-winter.
The
source
of
funding
for
each
of
these
requests
is
in
our
is
our
state
general
stabilization
fund.
A
A
A
Their
council's
person
went
to
4-2
of
the
charter
of
the
city
of
Chelsea
I'm
writing
to
recommend
that
the
appointment
to
the
Chelsea
tree
board,
Ms
Bianca
mercarlo,
a
30
Fennel
Street
Chelsea
to
fill
the
unexpired
term
of
Denise
Ortega,
who
has
resigned.
This
term
expires
on
September
24th,
2024
2024.,
because
Ms
McArdle
is
currently
enjoyed
employed
by
part-time
by
the
city
of
Chelsea
as
a
state
sustainability.
Fellow
of
the
north
Suffolk
office
of
resilience
and
sustainability.
A
The
city
solicitors
determined
that
she
needs
an
exemption
by
voter
City
Council
from
the
conflict,
statutory
conflict
of
interest
laws.
In
order
to
accept
this
role,
I
asked
the
city
council
to
also
prove
this
exemption.
All
of
Ms
mcardle's
duties
for
the
tree
board
will
be
outside
of
her
normal
working
hours
as
a
city
employee.
What
does
wish
the
council
accept.
A
Going
back
to
the
softball
coach,
Chelsea
Public
School
wishes
to
hire
current
DBW
Central
Building
employee,
miss
Emily
Arroyo
as
another
girls,
softball
coach,
because
Mr
Royal
is
an
existing
employee
with
a
financial
interest
and
a
separate
matter.
She
needs
the
exemption
vote
by
the
city
council
from
the
statutory
conflict
of
orders
to
become
a
coach.
I
asked
the
council
to
approve
this
exemption.
A
A
We
have
a
communication
from
the
city
manager
regarding
440
Broadway,
a
notice
of
a
project
change
their
counselors.
As
you
recall,
in
January
2022,
the
city
issued
a
request
for
proposals
for
the
site,
I
hope
spurring,
affordable
housing
and
enlivening
the
Broadway
Corridor
track.
Companies
are
reputable,
affordable,
mixed
income.
Housing
development
submitted
a
proposal
to
develop
28
units
of
affordable
housing
above
ground
retail
space
that
project
comprising
of
10,
affordable
home
ownership
and
18,
affordable
rental
units
was
approved
by
the
city
council.
A
Since
the
selection
of
this
proposal,
City
through
its
Department
of
Housing
Community
Development,
has
been
working
with
tracker
to
advance
the
project.
During
the
course
of
these
planning
activities,
new
financing
stream
has
become
available
for
affordable
home
ownership,
recognizing
the
city's
priorities
to
develop,
affordable,
accessible
home
ownership
opportunities,
parties
have
agreed
to
modify
this
project
and
provide
all
of
the
28
units
to
be
affordable
and
Workforce
home
ownership
units.
There
will
be
no
rental
units.
The
developer
will
utilize
Mass
housing
come
with
build
a
program
to
finance
this
change
equally
important.

Assuming
finances
financing

available
as
expected.
Construction
May
begin
as
early
as
fall
of
23..
Unless
the
city
council
is
in
opposition,
there
is
no
need
for
any
further
to
vote.
Previous
order
from
November
2021

allows.
This
negotiated
change
was

A
Dear
council
is
personal
243-1
and
social
city
council.
I
am
writing
to
of
the
Chelsea
Charter
rather
Brian,
to
request
city
council
to
approve
the
cost
items
for
the
new
collective
bargaining
agreement
negotiated
with
the
Teamsters
Local
25,
covering
tbw
for
a
period
of
July,
1
2022
to
June
30th
2025..
A
copy
of
the
memorandum
is
attached.
A
The
city
council
must
approve
the
payments
from
the
current
year
Department
budget
for
the
prior
Year's
obligations,
thus
far
the
city
as
part
of
the
our
fiscal
year
closed.
We
have
identified
several
outstanding
a
priority
year
obligations
and
a
total
of
six
thousand
nine
hundred
seventy
two
dollars
and
seventy
one
cents
school
department
passed.
Your
obligations
is
thirty,
three
thousand
ninety
one
dollars
and
eighty
one
cents.
The
invoices
are
itemized
in
the
attached
table.
In
each
case,
the
respective
department
has
sufficient
funds
to
meet
the
outstanding
obligation.
No
new
funds
are
required.
A
A
A
A
Sadly,
the
drug
addicts,
traversing
shirtless
street
and
surrounding
areas
of
doing
so,
intoxicated
like
they
are
in
the
comfort
of
their
own
home.
They
sit
on
the
stairways
not
on
their
own
and
meet
on
the
corners
both
day
and
night,
visibly
in
the
state
of
incoherence,
injecting
drugs.
While
shouting
and
smoking
crack
as
a
resident
of
Chelsea
for
20
years
plus,
it
is
heartbreaking,
see
I,
truly,
must
endure
these
images
and
experience
seeing
people
doing
drugs
right
outside
their
homes.
A
Needless
to
say,
this
is
not
what
we
want
our
children
to
watch.
It's
not
a
healthy
environment
for
our
kids
to
grow
up.
Furthermore,
in
the
summer
months,
it
is
at
worst
on
behalf
of
my
entire
neighborhood
and
Community
I
respectfully.
Ask
the
council
to,
for
the
sake
of
our
children,
address
the
crisis
immediately
before
it
worsens.
A
My
neighbors
have
proposed
the
city,
invest
in
the
red
impact
shop,
waste
containers
to
be
dispersed
throughout
the
city,
not
only
in
District
Six
Parks,
but
our
Recreation
areas
within
the
city
of
Chelsea
to
reduce
the
amount
of
needles
left
in
and
around
our
parks
and
provide
a
safe
option,
but
city
workers
to
clean
up
expeditiously.
Additionally,
we'd
like
to
request
a
more
prominent
police
presence
here
via
foot
patrols
or
offices
on
bikes,
we
have
seen
ourselves
drug
users
leave
if
they
see
police
officer
cars.
Our
streets
have
been
in
high
Vines
and
crime.
A
D
A
Moving
on,
we
have
unfinished
business.
We
have
an
order
introduced
by
Council
of
Asiana
by
this
vote.
The
Chelsea
Council
everybody's
authorized
this
city
manager
and
the
one-way
Broadway
that
includes
one
lane
of
vehicular
traffic,
but
a
shared
bike.
Bus
line
between
5th
Street
and
Everett
pilot
program
approved
on
January
13,
2020
2020
and
revert
back
to
the
original
one-way
Broadway
to
configuration
or
motion
on
the
floor.

B

A

D
Chairman
I,
this
is
the
second
subcommittee.
We
had
a
subcommittee
before
this
meeting.
We
had
one
again
the
last
time
we
met
a
couple
of
weeks
ago
and
I
still
really
don't
understand
why
this
Ruffles
so
many
feathers.
The
data
continues
to
show
that
this
is
safer.
The
data
that
was
provided
to
us
tells
us
that
we
have
64
percent
less
accidents
as
a
result
of
having
the
bus
lane
and
the
traveling
Lane
I
can't
understand
as
a
mom
how?
D
What
so
many
kids
are
walking
in
that
area
going
to
school
from
5
a.m,
to
10
a.m?
Why
we
would
want
to
prohibit
the
bus
lane
from
having
its
own
designated
Lane
and
creating
further
chaos
when
the
data
continues
to
show
us
that
there
are
less
accidents
happening
as
a
result?
We
really
cannot
continue
to
think
that
we're
going
to
keep
having
developments
in
the
city
and
that
it's
not
going
to
have
adverse
impact
on
our
community.
It
is
better
for
us
in
terms
of
Public
Safety.
D
It
is
better
for
us,
in
terms
of
accommodating
more
modalities
of
traveling,
whether
it's
the
bus,
public
transit
pedestrians
or
driving
I
I
I'm,
really
just
having
a
hard
time
justifying
why
we
would
change
it
if
it's
not
broken,
why
fix
it?
If
there
are
things
that
we
can
do
to
tweak
it?
One
thousand
percent,
but
this
is
like
constant
fighting
going
back
and
forth
and
and
I
really
just
I'm
I'm
perplexed
as
to
why
this
is
so
serious.
D
We
are
literally
talking
about
a
stretch
of
two
blocks
to
accommodate
a
big
bus
that
carries
people
to
take
them
to
work
and
to
get
to
school
without
any
impediments
and
the
traffic
are
there
things
that
we
could
do
to
tweak
it
and
make
it
better
one
thousand
percent.
We
can
be
better
about
enforcement.
D
We
could
be
better
about
maybe
having
more
more
lights
or
or
I,
don't
know
whatever,
whatever
the
issues
are,
but
if
the,
if
it's
safer,
if
it's
safer
and
data
that
they
keep
presenting
to
us,
is
telling
us
that
it's
safer
I,
don't
understand
why
we're
trying
to
fix
something-
that's
not
broken,
rather
than
trying
to
perfect
something
we
just
want
to
like
strip
it
away
or
or
change
it.
It's
just
it's
so
much
chaos.
D
D
We
should
just
I'm
ranting,
I,
just
I
just
I,
just
because
I
just
don't
get
it
I
think
we
need
to
say
yes
to
environmental
justice
and
making
sure
that
we're
accommodating
the
Bus
Say
Yes
To
safer
streets
and
and
make
sure
that
we're
streamlining
that
traffic
instead
of
having
two
vehicular
lanes
that
are
just
speeding
down
the
street.
Thank.
H
So
I
agree
with
counselor
Vado
on
the
safety
issue.
It
was
one
of
the
one
of
the
points
of
information
that
I
wanted
the
city
to
come
back
with
from
the
previous
subcommittee
to
this
subcommittee
was
the
safety
issue
and
how
many
crashes,
what
I
wanted
was
how
many
trips
per
crash,
but
they
they
ended
up,
giving
me
how
many
crashes
per
million
vehicle
miles.
Traveled
pre-pilot
was
almost
19
crashes
per
million
per
million
vehicle
miles
traveled
under
the
bus
pilot
that
was
reduced
to
5.38
crashes,
per
million
million
vehicle
miles
traveled.
H
It's
clear
that
this
is
a
safety
issue,
and
you
know
I
gotta
say
that
safety
should
always
come
first
over
other
considerations
and
I
understand
that
maybe
some
people
don't
like
it.
Although,
according
to
the
survey
56
of
people
who
answered
the
survey
answered
in
Spanish
of
those
people,
57
percent
either
approved
or
strongly
approved,
while
only
11
percent
either
disapproved
or
strongly
disapproved
of
English
respondents.
57
excuse
me
59,
either
approved
or
strongly
approved,
and
only
27
disapproved
or
strongly
disapproved.
H
I
think
it's
clear
that
most
of
the
people
in
this
city
want
to
keep
the
bus
lane
as
it
is
it's
a
safer
option
and
I
would
agree
also
with
the
city
manager
when
he
said,
there's
no
real
public
policy
reason
to
change
the
existing
pilot
program
and
not
make
it
permanent
and
I.
Think
the
I
think
the
statistics
bear
this
out
and
that's
why
I'm
going
to
be
voting
against
the
amendment
I
encourage
everyone
else
to
vote
against
it.
F
F
F
The
evidence
that
I
heard
tonight
is
there
has
been
really
no
reason
to
Resort
back
until
what
we
had,
because
of
what
we
have
in
front
of
us
seemed
to
make
sense.
So
again,
if
this
measure
Goes
Forth
it's
going
forth
and
if
the
amendment
is
fail,
we
have
to
go
back
to
the
original
motion.
So
I
just
want
that
to
be
clear.
So
as
we
take
heart
to
what
we're
about
to
do
here,
let
us
be
mindful
of
what
we
think
is
best
for
our
residents
in
the
city
of
Chelsea.
Thank
you.

What

The
Chelsea
city
council
hereby
who
authorizes
the

to
make
permanently
one-way
Broadway?
That
includes
one
lane
of
vehicular
traffic,

Any
more
discussion.
A
It
was
started
years
ago
when
he
tried
to
push
two-way
downtown
and
he
had
I
was.
It
was
almost
embarrassing
to
have
the
chief
of
police
who
had
a
peddle
this
idea,
a
man
who
I
respect
peddle,
because
you
know
the
good
soldier
and
they
have
to
come
up
here.
Chief
of
police
came
up
here
and
said:
hey
if
we
have
to
way
downtown.
A
You
know
it'll
help
fight
crime,
because
a
cop
will
be
driving
both
ways
and
see
crime
I
mean
it
was
ridiculous,
and
then
we
came
with
this
and
he
says:
okay,
if
I'm
not
going
to
get
the
two-way
and
reduce
it
down
one-way
Lane
I'm,
going
to
do
this
turning
Chelsea
into
Revere
like
that's
what
we
want
safety
could
have
been
easily
attained
with
a
light
intersection
lights
at
those
two
spots.
It
wasn't
the
only
way
to
do
this,
but
no
they
had
to
push
it
and
they
said
well,
it's
for
bus,
increasing
bus
pass.
A
You
know
to
push
bus
transportation.
We
saw
that
that
wasn't
happening.
I
like
to
believe
that
you
push
for
policy
Based
on
data.
You
want
data.
We've
had
two
million
car
rides
from
Uber
in
this
city.
Why?
Because
the
bus
system
MBTA
system
sucks
it
doesn't
help
Chelsea
residents
I,
went
to
a
meeting
last
month,
they're
not
serving
Clinton
Mill
Hill
area.
This
is
the
same
system
that
decided
to
move
the
commuter
rail
line
from
the
actual
black
and
brown
minority
people
that
were
serving
down
the
street
to
luxury
apartment
development.
A
The
dependency
of
vehicles
in
this
car
has
not
decreased
data.
Car
car
registrations
have
not
gone
down
and
I've
heard
it
contractors
who
are
saying
it's
harder
for
me
to
drive
downtown
now
and
in
the
area
because
of
what
has
of
these
changes,
and
these
are
guys
who
are
picking
up
employees
in
the
city,
parents
who
are
saying
it's
harder
for
me
to
get
drop
off
my
kids
to
two
different
points
and
get
to
work
because
of
what's
going
on
downtown,
not
just
downtown.
But
this
road
diet
plan
of
narrowing
the
streets
around
the
city.
A
A
real
disconnect
from
this
Administration
to
the
business
downtown
talk
to
the
gold
mine.
He
tells
you
traffic's,
backed
up,
get
sends
me.
Emails
lots
of
business,
Dr,
Deborah
Wayne
against
it,
BD
store
against
it,
the
nail
salon
against
it,
but
somehow
no
one
said
to
them:
well,
maybe
because
I'm
doing
a
better
job
of
walking
downtown
and
talking
to
the
residents
and
talking
to
the
businesses
and
the
city
managers.
A
Could
that
be
the
case
because
I'm
hearing
it
from
everyone
that
this
is
a
mess
we
have
our
firefighters,
even
the
the
fire,
the
union
Chief
I
mean
the
the
head
of
the
union
says
this
is
a
terrible,
has
been
a
terrible
idea:
police
officers
telling
us
it's
a
terrible
idea.
It's
been
terrible.
It's
made
things
worse,
DBW
workers
come
up
to
me
and
tell
me
it's
worse.
A
It
just
seems
that
everybody
on
the
bottom
is
saying
how
bad
this
is.
Yet
it's
not
reaching
the
top
or
it
doesn't
want
to
be
heard
from
the
top
I'm
for
the
bus
lane
on
Tobin
Bridge,
it's
fantastic.
It
makes
a
difference,
but
three
but
three
blocks
downtown
for
the
the
mistakes
I
mean
for
the
havocs.
It's
Wrecking
downtown,
like
I,
said
if
it
was
purely
safety.
I
could
have
said.
I
could
have
solved
this
five
six
years
ago
with
a
couple
of
Lights
traffic
lights
downtown,
but
no
we're
not
going
to
do
that.
A
F
A
Minute
so
you
know
I'm
I'm
disappointed
because
the
data's
there
you
know
they
could
have
done
the
safety
thing.
Let's
not,
let's
not
fool
ourselves.
You
could
have
done
a
safe,
improve
safety
downtown
a
long
time
ago
with
a
couple
of
intersection
lights.
It
would
have
done
the
same
damn
thing,
but
they
want
to
hang
this
up
all
right.
20.
G
D
G
D
Sorry,
just
I
thought
it
was
hilarious,
fun
to
break
the
ice
a
little
bit.
Okay,
so
I
don't
understand
with
this.
Energy
is
coming
from
I
I
and
you
know
what
like
we
can
disagree
as
counselors
I,
get
that,
but
I
just
want
to
bring
to
the
table
that
the
city
manager
recently
forwarded
an
email
to
the
rest
to
the
city
council
that
was
sent
to
him
by
the
president
of
this
of
this
Council,
where
he
was
berating
him.
It
was
a
nasty
email.
D
That
understands
the
needs
of
our
community
that
invest
in
our
most
vulnerable
community
and
so
I.
Don't
understand
why
the
vitreon
needs
to
con
constantly
happen
in
order
for
anything
for
anything
to
get
done.
We're
talking
about
two
block
stretch
to
accommodate
a
bus.
That's
only
going
to
make
us
better
in
terms
of
Public
Safety
in
terms
of
protecting
our
environment.
I
do
not
understand
why
everything
has
to
be
so
contentious
and
we
talk
about
the
people
at
the
bottom.
Don't
want
this.
D
We
have
heard
after
resident
after
resident
come
here
and
speak
in
favor
I
have
my
husband
works
for
DPW
I
have
spoken
with
people
at
DPW.
They
actually
were
against
it
at
first,
as
many
of
us
were
I've
spoken
with
police
officers
that
think
it
actually
works.
I've
spoken
with
people
who
do
the
school
buses
and
they
say
that
it
actually
works.
Parents
feel
safer
that
we're
streamlining
traffic
so
that
there's
not
two
lanes
constantly.
It's
like
playing
double
dutch
to
get
across
the
street
and
parents
appreciate.
D
H
I
think
the
council
president
had
some
good
points
about
about
safety
and
and
about
how
this
may
be
affecting
the
business.
Community
I
would
say
that
no
one
on
this
council
is
probably
more
pro-business
than
I
am
I,
understand
the
concerns
the
business
Community
I'm
part
of
the
business
community,
so
I
get
it.
H
However,
safety
trumps
that
I'm
sorry,
it
does
and
I
think
that
it's
clear
one,
one
point
of
safety
that
that
I
didn't
mention
before,
which
was
brought
up
in
the
subcommittee
that
Chelsea
was
number
one
in
Crash
clusters
in
the
entire
Commonwealth
and
then
as
far
as
pedestrian
accidents.
There
were
six
per
year
that
has
been
reduced
to
one
per
year.
That
is
huge
Okay.
So,
while
the
council
president
might
yeah
look
I'm
referring
to
the
council,
presidents,
not
not
just
any,
not
to
the
the
name.
H
This
lights,
I'm
all
four
lights.
What
happened
before
happened
before,
but
that
is
not
germane
to
this
motion.
So
I
wasn't
there
back
then
so
I
can't
really
address
that.
But
what
I
would
say
is
that
I
agree
with
some
of
his
points.
I
also
agree
that
more
enforcement
needs
to
be
done.
We've
heard
this
time
and
time
again,
I
see
counselors
nodding.
Their
heads
I
would
ask
the
city
manager
to
make
sure
that
the
police
department
is
enforcing
the
double
parking
on
Broadway.
It
is
a
constant
problem,
a
constant
irritant
and
I.
F
G
H
You
get
complaints
about
everything,
but
when
you
have
over
50
percent
of
the
people
wanting
to
keep
the
both
English
and
Spanish
speaking,
peoples
wanting
to
keep
the
bus
lane
and
only
between
11
and
27
percent
want
to
get
rid
of
it.
I
think
that's
pretty
clear
what
the
community
wants.
It
isn't
that
what
democracy
is
and
what
this
body
should
be
reflecting
is
the
will
of
the
people.

our
next
meeting
and
again,
if
any
council
member
have
any
questions
or
clarifications,
if
you
want,
we
can
have
a
subcommittee
before
our
next
meeting.
We
can
clarify
on
either
documents
or
any
of
the
Appropriations
that
we've
already
discussed
before
I
said
Thank,
you
Mr
chairman
the.
B
B
D
President
I
had
an
opportunity
to
go
to
the
library
last
Friday
for
the
Team
Takeover
event
that
was
hosted
by
the
Chelsea
black
community
and
other
folks.
It
was
really
cool.
I
have
never
been
to
a
library
that
was
so
lit.
They
had
DJs
a
photo
booth,
they
had
boba
tea,
they
had
gaming
room.
It
was
really
an
amazing
event.
So
I
just
want
to
shout
out
our
community
members,
especially
the
library
they
always
they
do
an
amazing
job
over
there
and
the
Chelsea
black
community
as
usual
I.
D
Also
while
I
was
there
bumped
into
an
organization
that
has
recently
they've
been
open
since
January
for
for
years,
I
remember
when,
before
you
got
Council
of
Taylor
got
in
the
city
council
recupero
all
of
us
have
advocated
for
a
youth
center
here
in
the
city
and
they
actually
started
one
Paul.
It's
not
what
we
hope
to
be.
We
know
that
the
city
managers
and
the
works
of
trying
to
make
that
happen.
D
For
us,
there
is
a
space
where
young
people
could
go
to
it's
on
269
Broadway,
it's
being
funded
by
the
by
North
mental
health
and
other
sources.
If
anybody
has
wants
to
know
more
information
about
them,
I
highly
suggest
that
our
account
any
counselors
take
a
tour
down
there.
I
have
something
scheduled
for
ones
that
it
will
take
a
look
and
see
how
it
is,
but
it's
specifically
for
16
to
21
year
olds,
which
tends
to
be
that
age
where
they
really
aren't
pro
programs
for
them,
so
we're
moving
in
the
right
direction.
