This
is
your
City
Council
morning.
B
And
welcome
well
I
tell
you
what
nothing
like
having
teachers
in
the
room,
I
heard
of
Shushan
every
one
of
y'all
got
quiet.
We
need
to
put
a
couple
on
staff
I
think
we
do
welcome
you
this
morning
to
councils,
November,
12th
meeting.
Hope
everybody
dressed
warm
because
it'll
probably
be
a
few
degrees
colder
on
the
way
home
that
it
was
here.
B
C
Morning,
thank
you.
Would
you
bow
with
me
as
we
pray
Lord?
We
are
so
grateful
for
the
community
in
which
we
live.
It's
a
place
that
provides
so
much
for
us
a
place
where
we
may
fellowship
with
each
other
a
place
where
we
may
do
good
and
provide
space
for
others
to
reach
the
zenith
of
their
lives.
Thank
you
for
these
who
hold
this
community
in
trust.
We
pray.
You
bless
their
wisdom
that
you'll
guide
them
that
you'll
strengthen
them
and
leave
them
in
the
things
that
are
best.
C
B
L,
thank
you,
sir,
and
thank
your
congregation
for
sharing
you
with
us
and
we
thank
you
for
what
you
and
your
church
do
every
day
throughout
this
community.
It's
unheralded,
but
you
you
quietly,
go
about
the
business
of
doing
God's
work
and
we're
very
grateful.
Thank
you,
sir.
Next,
some
of
the
most
polite
and
quiet
and
best-looking
pledgers
we've
had
I'm
going
to
invite
the
3rd
graders
from
st.
Luke.
If
y'all
will
come
up
front,
they're
gonna
lead
us
in
the
pledge
and
the
rest
of
you.

All
right,
we've
got
a
little
bit
of
an
interesting
situation.
We
can't
really
have
any
votes
today
and
not
yet
because
we're
still
short
a
quorum.
We
need
one
more
counselor
to
show
up
and
hopefully
they're
working
the
phones
to
make
sure
they
get
here.
In
the
meantime,
though,
we
do
have
a
presentation
from
the
from
director
Jessica
Reynolds
from
the
Georgia
Department
of
Community
Affairs.
Welcome,
we'll
call
you
to
the
podium.
How
are
you
good.
H
Council,
my
name
is
Jessica
Reynolds
and
I'm,
the
director
of
the
Office
of
Downtown
Development
at
the
Georgia
Department
of
Community
Affairs
and
with
me
today.
I
have
Tess
Harper,
who
is
our
communications
and
training
coordinator,
and
if
it's
ok
we're
both
going
to
abstain
to
from
telling
you
our
age.
H
But
thank
you
for
having
us
here
today
as
the
office
of
Downtown
Development.
We
manage
the
Georgia
Main
Street
program
and
had
the
pleasure
of
working
with
a
hundred
and
eighteen
communities
across
the
state
of
Georgia
dedicated
to
the
growth
of
their
historic
commercial
district
through
economic
development
in
the
context
of
historic
preservation.
H
As
you
may
be
aware,
the
Main
Street
approach
provides
a
balanced
path
towards
revitalization,
with
a
focus
o
I
urge
that
an
identity
development
in
the
context
of
historic
preservation
in
partnership
with
the
National
Main
Street
Center,
our
participating
cities
are
required
to
meet
ten
standards
during
an
annual
assessment
process
in
order
to
become
a
Main,
Street
America
city
every
single
year.
During
this
assessment
process,
we
work
as
a
team
to
identify
communities
that
have
gone
above
and
beyond
and
who
consistently
excel
in
each
of
ten
standards
to
us.
H
These
cities
are
known
as
our
Georgia's
exceptional
main
streets
or
what
we
lovingly
refer
to
them
as
gems.
It
is
because
of
Uptown
Columbus's
commitment
to
excellence
and
stable
leadership
that
I
am
here
this
morning
to
congratulate
the
City
of
Columbus
on
being
designated
as
a
2020
Gems
community.
Over
the
past
three
years,
downtown
Columbus
has
seen
67
million
dollars
a
private-public
investment
happening
in
their
downtown.
We
have
seen
20
new
businesses
opening
creating
a
hundred
and
twenty-seven
net
new
jobs.
H
Additionally,
your
Main
Street
program
has
attracted
almost
1
million
people
to
downtown
through
civic
events.
You
are
all
to
be
commended
for
your
dedication
to
rebuilding
the
heart
of
your
community
to
recognize
the
City
of
Columbus
and,
as
a
token
of
our
appreciation,
I
would
like
to
present
you
at
this
gateway
sign.
Recognizing
your
designation.
It
reads:
welcome
to
downtown
Columbus
a
Georgia
exception
on
Main,
Street
City.
Thank
you
and
thank
you
uptown
Columbus.
For
all
that
you
do.
We
can't
wait
to
see
what
the
future
holds
for
your
community.
Thank.
L
Because
a
jack
is
our
Main,
Street
manager
and
I'd
like
her
to
come
up
and
talk
about
this
because
she
feels
like
she's
on
the
spot
now.
But
this
is
a
it's
a
lot
of
work
for
our
organization
to
make
sure
we
shed
a
light
on
this
and
Main
Street
organization
has
been
excellent,
but
Becca
is
our
Main
Street
manager
and
has
really
walked
this
process
for
the
last
four
years
that
she's
worked
for
uptown
Columbus
and
so
we're
glad
glad
to
have
her
and
now
we're
going
to
be
keeping
her
in
this
community.
L
This
is
our
announcement
that
Becca
will
be
running
the
Dragonfly
trail
here
in
the
next
month,
so
we're
gonna,
be
we're
gonna,
be
missing
her,
but
I
think
it
says
a
lot
about
our
community
that
someone
that
came
here
from
Michigan
came
to
Columbus
for
a
job.
It's
taking
a
second
job
in
Columbus
I
think
it
says
a
lot
about
uptown
says
a
lot
about
our
community
that
we're
attracting
and
retaining
the
talent
like
Becca's,
a
Jackson.
J
Thank
you.
So
just
quickly,
if
you
guys
don't
know,
Main
streets
are
all
over
the
nation,
and
specifically
in
Georgia,
we
have
one
of
the
best
programs,
not
just
uptown
but
Jessica,
and
tests
and
the
rest
of
their
team.
It
basically
there's
four
tenants
that
define
great
downtown's
and
uptown
has
historically
continued
to
reach
those
tenants.
J
Year
after
year
year
after
year,
we've
been
nominated
two
times
for
the
top
ten
American
Main
Street
of
the
ward,
and
we
hope
that,
with
some
new
faces
in
the
Uptown
Crew
we're
going
to
get
that
this
year,
so
they'll
help
us
track
data.
They
help
us
measure
against
other
downtown's
and
see
what
they're
doing
and
then
it's
just
a
great
resource
to
learn.
You
know
what
are
their
downtown's
doing
in
Georgia
or
whether
are
the
downtown's
doing
in
the
nation,
that's
working
and
then
taking
those
lessons
and
applying
them
top
town.
H
J
D
B
Jessa
contesse,
thank
you
guys
again
for
all
your
work,
for
the
state
of
Georgia
and
also
for
recognizing
the
efforts
of
Ross
and
for
Becca
and
Becca.
We're
really
tickled
that
look
at
this
point.
You
leave
it
up
town,
but
we're
really
glad
you're
not
going
far.
So
congratulations
on
all
the
outstanding
work
and
I
do
have
to
say
you
ain't
seen
nothing
yet,
there's
some
good
things
coming
good
things
coming.
Thank.

It

Attorney.
I
just
want
to
make
note
that
as
if
there,
if
as
if
one
wasn't
enough,
there
are
now
two

them
many
years

being
educated
by
their
child
and
and
we're
really
excited
for
them.
B
O
B
Q
Deputy
Chief,
would
you
make
sure
that
all
the
alarm
companies
are
familiar
with
this
and
understand?
I
had
a
couple
questions
this
weekend
that
apparently
they
were
not
real
clear
on
it,
but
if
y'all
would,
over
the
next
couple
of
months
reach
out
to
everybody
just
to
go
over
it
again
and
make
sure
there's
a
good
understanding
of
what
we're
doing.
Okay.
Thank
you.
Councillor.
R
B
B
S
We're
doing
is
we're
not
recreating
the
ordinance
we're
just
modifying
what
we
have
presently.
You
have
to
register
your
alarm,
but
you
register
at
one
time.
What
we're
asking
is
that
you
register
your
alarm
and
then
you
register
it
every
year.
Now,
if
you're
presently
registered
with
the
City
of
Columbus,
it's
not
a
charge,
you
can
register
online.
Whenever
we
get
a
vendor,
you
read
your
re-registering.
Every
year
is
no
charge
again.
You
can
do
all
that
online.
S
What
we've
done
is
for
the
false
alarms,
because
you
know
we
answered
over
22,000
false
alarms
last
year.
We
are
as
follows:
over
60
a
day
and
the
fire
department
answered
over
2,500
false
alarms
last
year
and
they're
averaging
that
about
every
three
years.
So
what
we've
done
is
we've
we've
upped
the
penalties
that,
on
the
first
one,
it's
free,
the
second
one
you
can
go
to
alarm
school
or
pay
a
$50,
fine
and
the
third
one
your
assessed
$100
under
the
current
ordinance.
S
You
start
getting
assess
to
find
at
the
fourth
false
alarm
and
we're
just
moving
into
the
third
one.
There
was
some
confusion
with
with
people
about
well.
If
my
alarm
company
gets
an
alarm,
is
that
a
false
alarm,
the
only
time
we
counted
is
and
we're
notified
if
a
police,
car
or
a
fire
engine
is
dispatched
to
the
scene
and
arrives
at
the
scene
and
does
not
find
what
they
were
dispatched
for,
then
that
counts
as
a
false
alarm.
S
The
the
the
reason
we're
trying
to
do
this
is
is
to
try
to
cut
down
on
the
number
of
false
alarms
we
have
every
year
we
want
Onur
and
talking
to
some
of
the
people
that
have
alarm
companies
in
columbus.
We
have
a
lot
of
people
who
who
know
their
battery's
low
and
they
don't
care
to
replace
it.
They
know
they've
got
a
short
somewhere
and
they
don't
care
to
fix
it.
So
what
we're
trying
to
do
is
get
those
people
to
fix
your
alarms,
get
your
alarms
to
work
right
and
the
business
owners.
S
When
you
bring
in
a
new
employee,
you
know
you
you're
telling
them
when
to
come
to
work,
you're
telling
them
where
to
clock
in
when
to
go
on
break.
Well
now
we
want
you
to
add,
tell
them
how
to
work
your
alarm
as
part
of
it,
so
we'll
cut
down
on
those
false
alarms
and
and
that's
what
we're
trying
to
do
and.
R
Two
other
things
would
you
address?
The
I
know
that
there's
a
lot
of
there's
a
lot
of
residents
that
are
registered,
but
they
were
registered
a
long
time
ago
and
the
houses
have
sold
they
transition,
there's
other
people
living
in
them,
so
the
people
there
may
not
even
be
on
record.
So
if
you
guys
try
to
get
in
touch
with
somebody
doing,
you
know
who's
you
and
they
know
who
you're
calling.
It
may
not
be
the
person
that
lives
in
that
house
and
then
second,
is
the
appeal
process
right.
S
First
of
all,
you're
right:
we
have
a
house
and
talking
to
the
people
with
the
finance
division.
If
someone
built
the
house
20
years
ago
and
registered
their
alarm
and
then
a
house
has
been
sold
three
or
four
times
the
city
has
no
idea
who
owns
the
alarm,
and
you
know
it
doesn't
seem
like
a
big
deal.
But
if
you're
live
next
door
to
a
business,
that's
alarm
keeps
going
off
two
or
three
times
at
three
or
four
o'clock
in
the
morning
and
the
police
don't
know
who
to
contact
to
come
turn
it
off.
S
It
is
a
big
deal.
The
appeals
process
is
that
if
you
don't
feel
like
you're
almost
false
and
you
feel
like
you're
breathing,
you
feel
like
you're
being
charged
unfairly.
Then
you
have
30
days
to
appeal
and
the
appeal
process
will
be
to
the
person
who
the
Chief
of
Police
designates
as
the
hearing
officer
and
that
will
probably
end
up.
Maybe
and
then,
if
you
don't
like
what
the
hearing
officer
says,
then
your
final
appeal
will
be
with
the
Chief
of
Police.
The
outside
vendor
was
not
going
to
be
involved
in
this
appeal
process.
S
It
will
be
with
us-
and
you
know,
we're
gonna,
take
a
common-sense
approach
to
appeals
and
alarms
if
your
alarm
went
off
because
you
forgot
to
put
your
dog
up
well,
that's
a
false
alarm.
If
you're
having
a
an
issue,
you
know
and
again
I
talked
to
some
of
the
people
that
on
wall
carpeting
in
Columbus-
and
they
said
that
sometimes
when
you
go
out
to
a
house,
it's
a
trial
and
error
thing.
You
may
clean
the
sensor
and
then
it
goes
off
again.
S
So
you
may
have
to
replace
that
sensor
and
then
it
goes
off
again.
It's
kind
of
going
like
going
to
the
mechanic
with
your
car
and
if
it's
not
doing
what
it
was
doing
when
you
were
riding
down
the
road,
he
doesn't
know
what's
wrong
with
it.
So
it's
a
trial
and
error
thing.
So
if
people
are
actively
working
to
have
their
alarm
fixed,
we're
certainly
going
to
take
that
into
consideration.
S
Because
that's
you
know,
you
can't
fault
people
when
they're
actually
trying
to
get
it
fixed,
but
for
those
people
who
you
know
don't
want
to
keep
setting
their
arm
well,
they
can
just
pay
the
fine.
It's
probably
gonna
end
up
being
cheaper
for
them
to
get
their
alarm.
Fixes
well,
is,
and
that's
what
we
really
want.
P
S
A
lot
of
people
do
that
a
lot
of
people
will
say
well,
I
came
home
when
I
forgot,
you
know
when
they
call
me
and
I
say,
don't
call
the
police
or
don't
send
the
police
that
doesn't
count
the
majority
of
your
home
owners
in
Columbus.
You
know,
I've
had
my
alarm
since
2008
and
the
police
have
come
to
my
house
twice
and
I.
Think
most
of
the
people
who
have
alarms
in
Columbus
can
say
the
same
thing.
If
I
have
an
issue
with
an
alarm
like
I
hope.
S
P
Other
question
that
I
was
asked:
the
gentleman
said
he
is
70ish
disabled.
He
fell
in
his
shower
and
his
wife
couldn't
get
him
out
of
the
showers,
so
she
called
9-1-1
and
they
sent
the
fire
department
out
there.
They
got
him
up
and
he
did
not
have
to
go
to
the
hospital
or
anything,
and
he
said
because
they
didn't
take
me
to
the
hospital.
Is
that
a
false
alarm?
No
and
they
said
no,
that
that
doesn't
count
either
it's.
S
Nine
nine,
when
one
Center
can
tell
you
tonight
what
business
alarms
are
going
to
go
off
and
how
many
times
they'll
go
off
during
the
night,
and
you
know
it's
time
to
get
them
fixed.
It's
time
to
get
your
alarms
fixed,
it's
time
to
start
training
your
employees,
it's
time
to
be
more
responsible,
so
we
can
send
the
police,
cars
and
the
fire
engines
on
real
emergencies.
Thank
you.
Thank.
B
You
counselor
crap.
T
S
If
you
currently
have
an
alarm,
that's
registered
with
the
city
of
Columbus,
which
most
people
do,
if
you
had
your
alarm
put
in
by
an
alarm
company,
it's
registered
they've
filled
out
the
paperwork
for
you
and
sent
it
in
for
you.
You
can
check
with
city
finance
they've
gotten
a
list
of
who
is
and
who
is
it?
You
are
you're
grandfathered
in
it's
not
gonna,
be
a
fee
January.
The
1st
I
think
is
the
cut
the
start
off
date
and
we
want
everybody
to
register
re
register
their
alarm
on
January.
S
S
If
we
keep
coming
to
your
house-
and
you
don't
register
your
loan,
there's
going
to
be
a
penalty
for
not
registering
your
alarm,
but
if
you
do
it
online,
you
can
do
it
in
the
mail
we're
going
to
really
as
soon
as
if
it
passes,
and
when
we
get
a
vendor
we're
going
to
do
a
information
to
the
citizens
of
Columbus
through
the
news
media,
through
Facebook
and
social
media,
to
educate
people
on
how
to
do
this.
I.
S
T
S
I
think
they
can
do
that
yeah,
but
I.
Think
if
you've
got
a
burglar
alarm
at
your
house
that
was
put
in
by
alarm
company
your
are
long
as
registered.
You
should
have
a
sticker
on
a
window
or
on
your
garage
door
or
somewhere.
You
should
have
a
sticker
that
has
a
number
on
it,
and
that
is
your
registration
number
and
I.
Think
when
we
get
this
thing
rolling,
that's
the
number
you're
gonna
have
to
have
to
to
identify
yourself
and
to
be
grandfathered
in
well.
T
T
I
just
wanted
to
bring
that
to
everybody's
attention
because
I,
because
that
is
one
of
the
big
concerns
that
I've
been
getting,
is
the
cost
of
the
application
and
really
it's
just
kind
of
a
from
what
I
understand
it's
a
pass-through
claw
cost.
It's
that's
what
it's
going
to
cost
to
process
these
applications
going
forward,
and
so
to
avoid
that
there
is
a
period
of
time
before
January
1st
that
you
can
check
to
make
sure
your
alarms
are
registered
and
you
can
avoid
that
cost.
Okay,
thank
you.
N
Good
morning,
you
just
want
to
make
sure
just
like
my
colleague
said.
There's
another
type
of
alarm
call
ring
that
a
lot
of
people
that
one
also
has
to
be
registered,
even
though
it's
not
a
company
company.
If.
S
N
D
S
S
B
O
R
I
was
just
gonna,
say,
I'm
glad
you
brought
that
up
in
City,
Attorney
I
really
appreciate
all
my
colleagues
called
me
and
sharing
concerns,
and
mr.
Waddell
is
is
agreed
to
to
work
on
some
matters
to
try
to
find
something
to
address
a
lot
of
the
concerns
that
were
expressed
so
I
appreciate
that,
and
it's
good
to
work
with
folks
like
that.
Well.
B
O
We'll
bring
that
back,
December
10th
next
item
up
for
a
public
hearing
is

and
it's

petitioner.
Mr.
Erickson
is
here
any
questions
around
the
table
or
anybody
in
the
audience
wants
to
be
heard.
O
O
O
B
O
Appear
to
be
anything
all
right,
we
will
bring
that
back
in
December,
Thank
You.
Mr.
Mittleman,
we
do
have
some
add-on
items
mayor
first
I'd
like
to
turn
it
over
the
city
manager
for
an
add-on
having
to
do
with
acquisition
of
property,
and
then,
if
that
passes,
we
will
immediately
bring
up
another
add-on
about
financing
a
bond
resolution
on
that.
K
All
right,
Thank
You
mr.
mr.
mayor
and
a
City
Attorney
I,
do
have
an
add-on
for
a
property
acquisition
at
5601,
Veterans,
Parkway
and,
first
of
all,
let
me
just
say
that
we're
asking
to
your
approval
to
acquire
this
piece
of
property,
and
it's
not
unusual,
as
you
know
that
we
acquire
property
from
time
to
time.
We
we
acquire
property
for
economic
development
opportunities,
we
acquire
property
for
redevelopment
opportunities
for
city
services
and
programs.
K
When
when
we
have
a
need
all
we
may
acquire
property
for
future
needs,
and
so
examples
would
be
we
own
quite
a
bit
of
property
in
the
Liberty
district,
we
own
quite
a
bit
of
property
in
City,
Village,
City
meals
and
along
Andrews,
well,
cocido,
road
and
areas
throughout
the
city.
We
we
do
on
property
and
and
we
do
a
quality
for
various
reasons.
K
K
The
city
will
be
responsible
for
the
annual
debt
service
payment
payments.
It's
anticipated
that
the
purchase
will
be
financed
with
a
bond
issue
through
the
Columbus
Building
Authority
up
to
five
million
dollars.
That
would
include
any
renovation
that
we
might
do,
and
so
mr.
mayor
I'm,
asking
for
the
Council's
approval
to
proceed
in
acquiring
this
property.
There's.
R
R
B
O
C
B
O
B
Right,
thank
you.
All
right,
we'll
move
to
the
public
agenda
I'll
remind
those
that
appear
we'll
start
by
stating
your
name
and
your
address
and
you'll
have
five
minutes
to
to
conduct
any
business
with
counsel
that
you
wish.
If
you
can't
get
completed
in
five
minutes,
you
do
have
the
opportunity
to
come
back
at
the
end
of
the
clerk's
agenda
for
an
additional
three
minutes.
If
there's
any
further
information
that
you
you
want
to
share,
first
is
mr.
bill.
Barry,
it's
mr.
Barry
here
I
did
not
see
him
all
right.
Miss
Audrey,
Holsten
Palmore.
N
U
Feel
so
fortunate
to
be
present
at
this
moment
in
time,
I
am
a
human
being
who
is
identified
by
the
name.
Mrs.
Audrey,
Holsten
Palmore
I
am
protected
from
the
elements
by
the
brick,
wood
and
mortar.
At
the
address
of
10:35
lawyers,
Lane
a
dwelling
located
in
Midtown
section,
which
has
been
referred
to
as
ghetto
here
at
the
same
public
agenda
podium
by
a
Columbus
Georgia
resident.
U
Don't
forget
the
world
is
a
girdle
I,
am
proud
and
truly
breath
blessed
that
I
care
to
work
with
those
who
cared
for
me
to
instill
a
concern
for
where
I
would
and
could
strive
for
what
has
been
achieved.
My
residency
on
the
fact
I
applied
to
appear
on
the
public
agenda
portion
of
this
meeting
has
direct
ramifications
to
the
choice
I
made
to
live
in
the
City
of
Columbus
Georgia,
the
birthplace
of
my
existence
on
the
fourth
Saturday
of
March
2018.
U
My
daughter
made
an
effort
to
manifest
a
dream
to
celebrate
the
existence
of
a
precious
chocolate
drop
human
thing,
my
only
grandchild,
the
celebratory
spirit
of
the
gathering
at
the
carver
park
was
high
among
family
members
and
friends.
We
were
all
looking
forward
to
the
cookout
event.
As
the
cookout
event
unfolded,
a
disturbing
factor
became
evident.
We
had
not.
We
did
not
have
a
civilized
location
to
expel
waste
at
the
Carver
Park,
which
is
and
was
managed
at
the
time
by
the
Columbus
consolidated
government
Division
of
Parks
and
Recreation.
U
Since
that
time,
which
is
now
over
a
year
later
and
currently
approaching
a
second
year,
the
manager
of
this
city,
Isaiah
Hughley,
has
recommended
to
our
family
the
thought
of
the
disturbing
memory
of
no
place
to
expel
our
human
waste
in
a
civilized
manner.
The
need
to
be
categorized
as
something
that
our
memory
baked
needs
to
discard.
We
need
to
just
let
it
go
of
that
awful
disdaining
neglectful
memory
of
that
day.
I
am
here
to
let
the
Columbus
Georgia
citizens
know
that
the
present
city
manager,
mr.
U
Isaiah,
hugely
solicited
the
risk
manager
of
the
Columbus
consolidated
government
to
comply
with
written
communication.
In
a
letter
dated
March
7th
2019,
the
position
we
are
properly,
we
that
we
were
properly
treated
and
no
fault
of
the
government
city
government
is
warranted.
This
proclamation
that
has
been
presented
to
me
here
at
a
previous
council
meeting
formatted
the
book
of
Hostin
power
more
and
it
is
purposely
being
revealed
through
my
direct
verbal
approach
to
have
justice
of
this
situation.
U
Roll
down
the
wrote
the
halls
of
the
consolidated
government,
like
the
flood
waters
of
the
river
that
is
here
in
the
valley
through
the
written
communication
through
written
communication
I,
have
made
an
effort
to
have
with
you
the
members
of
the
present
City
Council
members,
with
the
exception
of
the
newly
appointed
councilmember,
has
no
reason
and
I
have
not
received
any
response
from
any
of
you.
I
am
still
awestruck
by
the
letter
from
the
risk
manager
of
mm
of
March
7th
2019
of
this
consolidated
government.
I
am
Fred.
B
V
V
Folks,
I
came
I
came
before
y'all
about
a
little
over
two
months
ago,
and
the
reason
I
came
was
because
my
wife
and
I
have
been
are
being
for
oh
gosh,
10
15
years,
and
we
enjoy
so
much
and
we've
had
a
RV
in
our
driveway
for
like
15
years
since
I
retired
from
the
fire
department
and
I
really
didn't
know,
there
was
an
ordinance
in
Columbus
Georgia.
That
stated
that
you
was
not
supposed
to
have
an
RV
over
32
feet
long,
our
our
RV
was
over.
It
was
36
feet
long.
V
It
actually
measured
like
38
feet
long.
If
you
measured
everything
on
the
RV
well,
I
came
before
y'all
and
asked
when
I
found
out
that
I
couldn't
keep
my
RV
at
home
and
I
just
loved
to
keep
my
RV
at
home.
So
I
can
work
on
it,
keep
it
clean
and
have
it
ready
to
go
when
we
get
an
opportunity.
So
anyway,
I
came
in
and
talk
to
y'all
about
it
about
two
months
back
and
and
I
asked.
V
If
there
was
any
way
the
child
could
reconsider
on
the
ordinance
in
and
and
extend
the
length
of
the
RV
that
one
could
keep
it
home
as
long
as
we
keep
it
in
our
backyard
or
in
our
driveway,
where
it
could
not
be
seen
from
the
front
of
our
home.
So
that
was
about
a
little
over
two
months
ago
and
the
ordinance
was
not
changed.
It's
still
the
same,
so
I
guess
for
some
reason
they
you
know
you
just
decided
not
to
make
any
changes.
My
wife
and
I
have
been
looking
everywhere.
V
We
went
hundreds
of
miles
and
spent
oh,
how
many
I
was
trying
to
find
us
an
RV
that
we
keep
at
home,
and
what
we
have
found
is
that
you
know
is
it's
just
almost
impossible
to
find
an
RV
that
we
can
be
comfortable
in
at
all
under
the
32
feet
situation,
and
what
I'm
here
to
ask
y'all
about
is
the
pic
of
you.
Guys
shows
the
front
end
of
RVs
and
what
I
wanted
to
ask
y'all
was:
is
there
any
way
the
child
could
consider
changing?
I
mean
the
way
that
the
RVs
are
measured.
V
If
you
could
just
allow
another
little
sentence
to
be
put
in
the
ordinance
which
states
that
hey
an
RV
will
be
measured
by
the
living
space,
only
if
you
can
just
do
that,
it
would
make
so
much
difference.
You
can't
even
imagine
how
much
difference
it
makes
that
little
two
feet
yeah.
What
I'm
talking
about
is
the
right
now,
the
way,
the
way
that
the
RV
is
measured
is
measured
from
you
know,
from
the
rear
of
the
RV,
all
the
way
to
include
the
hitch
on
the
front.
V
As
you
can
see
in
that
picture,
that
hitch
sticks
out.
You
know
a
couple
three
feet.
If
you
could
consider
making
a
change
in
that
ordinance
and
just
say,
look,
you
know
the
way,
we're
gonna
measure
an
RV
will
be
to
include
the
box
or
the
leading
space.
Then
it
would
just
help
us
so
much
and
I'm
sure
a
lot
of
other
people
who
may
be
in
the
market
to
buy
an
RV
I
mean
we
have
looked
I'm,
Tom,
I,
probably
100
hours,
trying
to
find
an
RV
and
we
could
have
done
bought
one.
V
If
that
was
I
mean
everywhere
we
go.
We
take
a
measuring
tape
with
us
and
we
could
have
done
found
us
an
RV
if
we
had
had
that
opportunity,
because
the
ones
we
found
the
boxes
was
32
feet
long,
but
when
we
measured
the
other,
you
know
it
was
like.
You
know
two
or
three
feet
longer
when
we
measured
the
hitching
part
up
front.
So
if
there's
any
way,
y'all
could
consider
making
that
change
in
that
an
ordinance
I
would
greatly
appreciate
it,
and
it
would
not
only
help
me
it
would
help
I
assure
you.
V
You
know
I've
been
camping,
a
long
time
and
know
a
lot
about
campers
and
I
know
that
that
change
would
help.
So
many
people-
not
just
not
just
us,
not
just
us.
So
that's
what
I'm
here
to
ask
you
to
consider
and
oh
that's
all
I
wanted
to
ask
y'all
to
do
because
we
would
look
to
buy
another
camper
and-
and
we
would
love
to
have
that
little
bit
of
lead
ways
so
that
the
RV
would
just
be
measured
to
include
the
box
or
the
living
space.
So
they
y'all.
Yes,.
B
P
C
B
B
N
B
N
N
It,
go
out
there
and
look
at
it
because
it
could
make
a
difference
with
the
hitch
and
not
so
I
would
actually,
let's
give
it
to
code,
an
inspection
to
look
at
it
and
let's
work
on
something
and
then
we
can
bring
you
back
and
I
apologize
to
you
I
thought
we
took
care
of
it.
Apparently
it
slipped
our
hands,
but
I'm
just
finished
talking
to
our
code
and
inspection
and
we're
gonna
go
ahead
and
look
at
it
and
considered
your
requests
so
I
Rex
how
we
do
that.
V
N
B
I
think
I
think
just
to
be
clear.
I
think
that
that
that
has
occurred,
I
think
that
code
and
inspection
has
looked
at
this
issue.
We've
looked
at
it
and
I
think.
Basically,
the
recommendation
was
that
there
was
no
way
to
start
accommodating
all
of
the
different
nuances
that
would
need
to
be
considered
with
regards
to
the
measurements
and
and
because
of
that
I
think
the
recommendation
was
to
leave
it
as
it
is
now.
You've
got
you've
got
a
resident
who,
who
made
a
very
I,
think
what
sounds
like
a
very
reasonable
request.
B
I
feel
certain,
though,
that
when
we
ask
mr.
Hutchison
there
are
going
to
be
some
exceptions
to
the
rule
on
what's
affixed
to
that
living
space
and
all
of
those
things
as
well,
but
I
think
what
I
heard
councillor
Thomas
make
him
motion
for
was
to
require
that
the
32
feet
be
contained
in
a
living
space
only,
and
it
might
be
good
to
allow
mr.
Hutchison
the
time
to
prepare
some
examples
of
what
might
be
accepted
from
that
measurement.
That
would
be
mm-hmm.
R
Thanks
amendments,
mister
paid
thinks
we're
coming
in
sharing
your
request
and
I'm
open-minded,
but
I
will
say
this.
There's
always
two
sides
of
story,
because
I
get
I
get
the
other
side
of
the
equation.
That's
people
are
really
concerned
your
neighbors
others
who
are
concerned
not
I'm,
just
using
that
as
an
example.
But
so
really
we
don't
really.
We
don't
change
ordinances
at
this
table
without
going
accounts
or
Woodsen's
right
without
doing
some
kind
of
research
and
report
and
stay
and
getting
some
recommendations.
R
We
just
don't
I,
don't
know
when
we
have
done
that,
but
I
would
not
support
that
without
staff.
Reviewing
it
and
bringing
us
some
kind
of
report
back
to
see
and
if
there's
a
possibility,
like
I
said,
I'm
open
minded
to
that,
but
at
the
same
time
I
got
to
keep
in
mind
that
there's
two
sides
of
story
because
I
got
two
people
that
called
me
all
the
time
about
this
very
issue
and
it's
hard
for
me
to
address
it
other
than
to
just
say:
we've
got
an
ordinance
on
the
books.
Q
Thinking
there,
the
thing
that
concerns
me
about
this
I
I
get
calls
too
without
repeating
a
lot
of
work.
Council
Davis
says
there
are
variety
of
styles
of
trailers
and
campers
and
pull
and
driven
campers,
but
some
of
the
living
space
goes
out
over
the
trailer
hitch
in
some
cases.
So
how
are
you
going
to
measure
that
living
space?
Q
V
Q
It
behind
your
home
I
would
again
yield
to
to
the
staff,
but
if
it's
out
of
sight
out
of
mind
kind
of
situation
that
may
work
but
again
you
know,
we've
got
not
just
your
request.
We've
got
to
listen
to
the
others
that
live
around
you
and
live
around
this
type
of
vehicle
in
the
neighborhoods
that
disrupt
and
their
mind
they
disrupt
quality
of
life.
So
man
may.
B
V
Can't
respond
to
what
he
just
saying
you,
that's
fine
with
me.
I
just
wanted
to
say
folks,
look
I'm,
certainly
one
that
would
never
want
to
do
something
to
offend
my
neighbors.
You
know.
I
would
not
because
I
understand
this,
but
what
what
you
just
talked
about,
if
you,
if
you
change
the
ordinance
just
like
these.
Ladies
just
voted
on,
if
you
change
the
ordinance
to
to
make
the
measurements
to
include
the
living
space,
only
it
will
never
change.
I
understand
what
you
say,
sir,
but
I
know
a
lot
about
our
fees.
V
I'm
talking
a
lot,
you
know
a
lot
and
if
you,
if
you
change
that
ordinance
to
say,
if
we're
gonna
measure
in
our
v
to
include
the
living
space,
it
ain't
gonna
change
because
I
don't
care
if
you've
got
a
camper
like
watch.
What
y'all
got
the
pictures
up.
Folks,
I,
don't
care
if
you
got
a
fifth
wheel,
I,
don't
care!
If
you
got
a
Motorhome,
it's
gonna
be
the
same.
You
gonna
miss
it
from
the
front
to
the
back
of
the
living
space.
It
ain't
gonna
change!
You
never
gonna
change!
There.
P
Mayor
my
motion
was
I,
think
to
have
staff,
take
a
look
at
this
and
bring
us
back
something
and
with
the
with
the
emphases,
if
you
will
on
dealing
with
the
living
space,
as
mr.
pate
has
said,
it
may
be
that
that
staff
has
to
come
back
to
us
with
something
other
than
what
you
have
specifically
requested.
But
I
think
that
counsel
I
mean
that
staff
understands
that
we
are
trying
we're
trying
to
accommodate
you
and
we're
trying
to
accommodate
these
other
folks.
T
You
also,
if
you
could
answer
this
question
today,
that'd
be
great
if
you
have
to
come
back
I
understand
what
does
the
ordinance
say
about
the
visibility
from
the
street
like
if,
if
it's
longer
than
the
32
feet,
but
it's
hidden
like
in
a
garage
or
behind
the
house,
is
that
allowable
okay?
B
T
K
Yes,
mr.
mayor
I
think
I
want
clarification
from
counselor,
Thomas
and
and
then,
of
course,
councillor
Davis
and
Mayor
Pro
Tem
Allen
hit
on
it
that
we
would
have
an
opportunity
to
bring
something
back
and
present
it
as
a
first
read,
Morton
exchange
and
there
will
be
a
public
hearing
and
other
people
will
have
an
opportunity
to
weigh
in,
but
also
just
one
just
for
a
second
the
director
to
just
point
out.
There
are
other
things
that
we
measure
and
we
would
have
to
be
consistent
in
the
way
we
measure
other
things
as
well.
K
W
Section
4
to
24
the
you
do
says
that
storage
of
recreation
of
vehicles,
boats,
trailers
are
in
all
residential
zoning
districts
shall
comply
with
the
requirements.
The
maximum
size
should
not
exceed
32
feet
in
length,
so
your
question
about
can
t
be
anywhere
if
it's
over
to
32
feet
of
it
can't
be
honest,
it's
not
a
lot.
So
therefore,
there
can
be
a
modification
to
that.
The
concern
about
the
trailer
length
is
now
if
we're
going
to
look
at
other
commercial
trailers.
W
So
if
we're
now
excluding
the
hitches
for
these,
there
we're
going
to
be
excluding
hitches
for
commercial
trailers
and
their
length,
and
now
are
they
just
gonna.
Consider
now
just
the
better.
The
truck,
not
the
whole
link
to
the
hitch,
as
included
pool
to
trailer,
still
do
have
that
little
piece
that
goes
over
the
hitch.
That's
the
counselor
Allen
mentioned
that
would
still
negate
this,
even
if
we
changed
it
because
the
hitch,
if
that
still
considered
living
space,
if
it's
over
the
hitch,
it
would
still
count
as
against
the
32
feet.
W
So
when
we
talked
I've
been
talking
with
plan
in
the
last
two
months,
we
looked
at
all
different
ordinances.
We
searched
different
cities,
they
had
privacy
screening
that
mentioned
that.
But
now
are
we
adding
another
undue
burden
to
the
owner
of
making
them
have
to
put
a
privacy
fence
now
to
screen
it
from
view,
and
then
how
tall
is
the
trailer
hitch?
Now?
Are
you
making
it
over
eight
foot?
Okay,
have
a
fence
over
eight
feet.
W
Now
you
have
a
trailer,
that's
still
gonna
be
sticking
over
the
top
and
you
still
see
it
from
the
right-of-way.
So
that's
why
we
didn't
go
down
Road
and
we
out
of
this
probability,
8,000
complaints,
I
get
from
special
enforcement
every
year.
We
have
six
of
these
that
deal
with
trailer,
hitch
or
length
of
trailers.
So,
like
I
said
we
when
we,
when
we,
when
I
count
when
Rick
brought
it
back
last
council
meeting,
we
just
said
we
we
didn't
know
the
juice
was
worth
to
squeeze.
W
But
we
just
looked
at
the
amount
of
complaints
that
we
receive
on
these
most
times
we
go
out
there.
We
tell
them
hey
your
trailers
too
long
people
move
it.
You
know
it's
like
I
said.
Obviously
it
can't
be
in
the
right-of-way,
but
typically
when
we
deal
with
it,
it's
just
it's
not
a
major
major
issue
but,
like
I
said,
we'll
continue
to
move
as
far
as
I
want
us
to
so.
T
W
Length
of
trail,
we
only
got
three
so
because
we
go
out
there,
we
roll
it
and
we
determine
if
it's
bigger
than
that
most
times
we
get
ten-day
warning,
they
move
it
or
if
there's
not,
they
going
store
it.
So
we
just
don't
get
very
many
complaints
on
this
situation,
so
we
didn't
think
that
would
warrant
getting
a
14-page
ordinance
added
to
a
section
right
now
where
we
only
have
four
bullet
points
and
we
meet
most
of
the
requirements.
We
need
to
take
care
of.
B
V
V
P
P
B
K
X
X
Y
Good
morning,
I
just
wanted
to
go
over
solid
waste
management
plan.
A
little
bit
of
background
we've
been
here
before
talking
about
this
a
little
bit
of
history.
The
agencies
involved.
This
does
with
the
Department
of
Natural
Resources
Environmental
Protection
Division
a
little
bit
of
Community
Affairs
local
government.
Solid
waste
management
plans
must,
at
a
minimum,
provide
for
the
next
ten
years
of
waste
capacity.
Y
We
also
need
to
identify
each
solid
waste
handling
facility
within
our
community
and
also
identified
those
sites
that
are
not
suitable
for
a
solid
waste
management
facility,
and
currently
we
don't
have
any
land.
According
to
our
research
in
our
plan,
any
land
suitable
for
another
solid
waste
landfill.
So
keep
that
in
mind
a
bit
on
the
timeline.
Here
we
began
the
development
of
this
solid
waste
management
plan
in
July
of
18.
We
had
the
plan
drafted
in
May
this
year.
We
presented
to
this
council
abby
goldsmith.
Y
What
goldsmith
resources
are
consulted
to
help
develop
the
plan
presented
to
you
all
on
September
the
10th,
and
we
mainly
focused
on
the
differences
between
our
previous
plan
and
this
new
plan.
We
didn't
receive
any
comments
concerning
that
since
then,
we've
we've
advertised
and
had
one
public
meeting
that
we
had
at
the
recycle
center.
We
have
ties
for
two
weeks
and
had
held
that
meeting
on
October
the
third,
no
one
in
attendance,
no
comments.
Y
K
K
This
plan
has
been
developed
to
establish
a
roadmap
to
achieve
the
goals
of
reducing
and
managing
solid
waste
within
must
County,
except
within
the
Fort
Benning
Military
Reservation,
and
so
it's
a
plan
and
we
need
a
plan
and
mr.
mayor,
if
it's
okay,
if
there's
someone
who
wants
to
come
in,
we
would
welcome
them
to
come
in.
N
D
P
Y
The
reason
for
that
the
the
first
presentation,
the
council,
there
was
no
comments
or
concerns
our
first
public
meeting.
No
one
showed
up
so
I
was
expecting
the
same
on
this
one
and
so,
for
the
sake
of
time,
mothers.
But
if
there's
anything
of
concern,
we
can
go
back
and
do
it
again.
So
we've
had
one
official
public
meeting,
yeah.
R
You
know
in
the
past,
we've
talked
about
alternative
technology
and
ways
to
deal
with
our
waste
problem
other
than
what
we're
doing
now,
which
I
guess
I'll
put
it
conventional
recycling.
We've
talked
about
that
I
mean
I've,
never
Ivan,
I,
don't
know
of
any
follow
up
that
we
had.
So.
My
question
would
be:
is
that
gonna
be
part
of
this
process
recommendations
that
things
that
we
need
to
look
at
or
we
need
to
know
what
is
out
there
as
far
as
technology?
You
know
what
I'm
talking
about
when
I
say
right.
R
Y
K
B
N
R
Y
Does
one
thing
that
we
don't
have
a
lot
of
data
on
is
the
commercial
collection
and
we've
identified
that
in
this
plan,
Muscogee
County
City
of
Columbus
Columbus,
consolidated
government
is
responsible
for
all
of
our
waste,
not
just
the
waste
that
Public
Works
picks
up
in
services
and
through
this
plan,
we've
identified
that
roughly
two
hundred
and
seventy
thousand
tons
we're
only
picking
up
70,000
the
commercial
side
such
as
advanced
downtown
and
and
some
other
haulers.
We
don't.
We
don't
have
any
information
on
that.
Y
So
we've
addressed
that
in
this
plan
that
we
we
need
some
kind
of
reporting
mechanism
where
these
private
haulers
are
letting
us
know
what
kind
of
waste
they're
hauling
out
of
Muscogee
County.
Where
is
it
going?
So
if
we
wanted
to
do
recycling
initiatives
countywide,
we
would
have
that
information.
Well,.
R
And
I
said
second
Avenue,
it's
actually
on
Veterans
Parkway,
but
I'm
just
gonna
be
let
it
I'm
gonna.
Let
it
be
known
that
I
do
get
a
lot
of
concerns
about
that
odors
debris
the
roads
you
can
go
by
there
anytime.
You
can
just
see
the
the
tracks
coming
out
of
this
place,
or
these
places
all
up
and
down
the
road.
You
know
and
the
question
of
where
does
it
all
go
at
the
end
of
the
day
and
when
the
rain
comes
so
I?
Do
there
are
a
lot
of
concerns
about
this?
Y
B
K
I've
had
meetings
and
conversations
not
recently
with
the
owners
and-
and
there
were
very
candid
conversations
with
them
and
in
fact,
there's
a
very
small
sliver
of
property
that
we
own
right
there,
that
they
have
wanted
to
continue
to
lease
from
us
and
not
to
get
into
any
details,
but
I
think
the
lease
is
expired
and
they
need
our
portion
to
do
what
they
do
and
and
we've
worked
to
try
and
get
them
relocated
somewhere
else.
So
I
just
want.
You
know
we're
just
not.

More
updates.
We've
had
the
solid
waste
plan
update
I've
got
the
president
CEO
of
the
Columbus
Convention
and
Visitors
Bureau.
Mr.
K
E
Tell
you
the
the
marketing
plan,
the
strategic
plan,
the
communication
strategy
that
we
are
we
are
working
with
the
team
worked
with
on
a
daily
basis,
is
either
meeting
or
exceeding
our
expectations,
and
this
morning
I
want
to
share
with
you
some
of
those
successes
that
we
have
experienced
so
that
you,
as
council,
people
and
the
citizens,
can
understand
why
tourism
is
economic
development.
So
we
always
start
off
with
our
presentations
by
saying
that
tourism
is
big
business.
These
are
folks
that
come
into
the
city.
E
We
heard
earlier
from
the
award
that
uptown
received
that
our
Center
City
is
the
nucleus
of
that
excitement
that
helps
promote
Columbus
as
a
destination.
So,
let's
get
into
the
numbers,
this
report
was
prepared
for
us.
We
we
contract
annually
with
the
the
butler
Center
for
Business
and
Economic
Research
at
Clem
State
University,
to
help
us
determine
how
we're
moving
a
needle
if
we're
moving
your
needle
and
how
we
need
to
adjust
our
strategic
plan
and
marketing
plan
and
so
forth.
E
2.3
million
visitors
came
to
the
city
that
we
tracked
into
the
destination
in
FY
19.
They
spent
over
360
million
dollars
while
they
were
in
the
destination
accrete
over
4,600
jobs
for
Columbus
citizens,
123
million
dollars
in
economic
excuse
me
an
estimated
payroll
for
those
jobs
and
22
point
eight
million
dollars
in
sales
and
lodging
tax
revenue.
So
you
begin
to
see
that
these
numbers
are
substantial
and
each
household
because
of
travel
because
of
the
visitors
that
come
to
Columbus
each
household
saved
over
$500
per
per
residents.
E
In
other
words,
if
those
2.3
million
people
who
are
not
in
the
destination,
there
would
be
an
additional
need
to
collect
500,
finding
ways
to
collect
another
five
hundred
seventy
seven
dollars
per
household.
In
order
to
continue
the
services
that
our
citizens
in
quality
of
life,
our
citizens
expect.
So
we
want
to
drill
down
a
little
further
and
again
Oklahoma
State
University
does
this
for
us
on
a
daily
visitor.
We
take
that
2.3
million
number
and
we
break
that
down
even
further
a
sixty-four
hundred
plus
people
every
day
in
the
destination.
E
They
spend
almost
a
million
dollars
every
day,
while
they're
here
and
then
we
break
it
down
into
what
they
and
how
they
spin
it.
So
each
individual
will
spend
each
individual
visitor
that
is
in
the
destination,
will
spend
almost
a
hundred
and
sixty
dollars
while
they're
here
they
spend
it
in
restaurants,
one
hundred
seventy
one
thousand
plus
dollars
at
restaurants
lodging
obviously
in
order
to
have
a
great
experience,
they're
staying
in
our
hotels,
two
hundred
fourteen
thousand
seven
hundred
sixty-four
dollars
or
is
spent
in
the
lodging
retail
everyone
who
goes
on
vacation
the
first
place.
E
We
we
always
visitors
a
shopping
experience,
well
we're
two
hundred
thousand
dollars
just
spent
every
single
day
by
visitors
in
our
destination,
entertainment
buying
tickets,
going
to
our
performances.
Seventy
four
thousand
eight
hundred
two
sixty
one
dollars
every
single
day
is
spent
on
some
form
of
entertainment
by
visitors,
as
they
experience
our
destination
again
daily
expenditure
per
visitor
or
by
our
visitor
cells
in
life
in
revenue,
sixty
two
thousand
six
hundred
and
one
dollars
local
wages,
in
other
words
this
economic
engine.
E
That's
driving
the
community
because
of
travel
three
hundred
and
thirty
five
thousand
plus
dollars
or
is
devoted
to
local
wages,
with
the
jobs
that
are
created
every
single
day
in
our
community
want
to
look
for
a
moment
at
our
sales
strategy.
How
is
that
working
for
us
again?
We
set
ourselves
up
for
goals.
We
hope
we
exceed
those
goals.
We
certainly
hope
to
to
at
least
meet
those
and
I
want
it
to
break
this
down.
E
For
you
at
meetings
held
the
first
on
this
first
part
of
this
table,
we
saw
we
exceeded
our
goal:
136
percent
of
our
goals,
meetings
held,
which
generated
twenty
three
point.
Four
million
dollars
in
our
community
lead
sent.
This
is
the
thing
that
we
truly
have
control
over
it
at
our
organization
at
the
CVV.
These
are
the
these
are
the
prospects
that
we
collect
RFPs
for
for
meetings
and
conventions.
We
are
93%
of
gold
by
the
end
of
FY
19.
E
You
see
there
that
those
the
lead
sent
to
our
hotel
partners
to
our
venues
for
a
15
point:
nine
million
dollars
in
akin
packed
these.
This
is
prospective
business
that
we
are
courting
for
the
city
and
then,
of
course,
turn
definite
business.
One
hundred
and
forty
seven
percent
of
goal
was
reached
twenty
seven
point:
four
million
dollars
when
these
meetings
not
don't
necessarily
take
place
in
the
fiscal
year.
E
We
converted
72%
of
those
site
visits
into
new
business
for
Columbus
over
one
point:
nine
million
dollars
of
economic
impact
and
then
of
course,
servicing
well
many
times
when
I
have
talked
to
Council
we
talked
about
the
servicing
seems
to
be
the
majority
of
what
we
do,
which
is
what
sets
clumps
apart
is
the
destination?
Is
we're
known
for
a
hospitality?
I
know
you
hear
it
a
lot
as
you
interface
with
your
constituents
and
when
you
experience
things
on
your
own,
but
hospitality
is
what
we
excel
in.
E
We
are
its
97%
of
gold,
4700
point
three
million
dollars
and
when
we
say
servicing,
this
could
be
acting
as
a
step
on
guy
providing
information
centers
at
meetings,
any
type
of
request
that
comes
tough
if
it's
within
breezes
and
we
have
resources.
We
always
like
to
extend
that
service
to
those
visitors
that
are
here
and
then
a
communication
plan.
We
are,
we
undertook
a
strategy
working
with
Lori,
Communications
and
I
wanted
to
share
these
numbers,
for
he
pretty
pretty
amazing
numbers.
E
The
we've
had
278
articles
published
on
Columbus
totally
impressions.
These
are
these
are
the
the
number
of
folks
they
have
either
received
or
passed
us
these
stories
along
370
and
month.
Nine
million
impressions
on
these
stories.
If
we
were
to
have
by
about
the
the
equivalent
of
that
ad
space
that
those
articles
represent,
it
would
have
been
an
investment
of
3.8
million
dollars
just
to
get
that
type
of
coverage.
I'm
sure
everyone
heard
the
cool
I've
heard
about
the
cool
cat
story
that
folks
published
originally
well.
E
It
has
appeared
in
89
other
magazines
across
the
country
and
it's
really
created
quite
a
buzz
not
just
locally
but
across
the
state
of
Georgia.
I
know
that
I
have
personally
gotten
a
lot
of
phone
calls
or
emails
from
colleagues
asking
us
what
we
are
doing
and
why
is
Columbus
making
so
much
noise
and
we
love
it.
We're
also
involved
in
a
strategy
to
make
the
best
of
lists
everyone's
that
what
everyone
wants
to
be
in
the
top
10
top
50
and
so
forth.
We're
also
the
strategy
includes
the
accolade
type
of
stories.
E
This
would
be
the
distinctive
food,
dining
best
part
for
outdoor
lovers,
best
day,
trips
from
Atlanta,
unique
museums
around
the
world
and
amazing
places
to
visit.
We
have
have
had
65
articles
that
have
placed
us
in
those
types
of
categories
across
the
country,
so
we're
very
excited
about
that
and
the
team
has
worked
really
hard
to
make
that
happen.
E
So,
let's
talk
about
film
for
a
moment
and
we'll
wrap
it
up.
Currently,
there's
a
economic
impact
of
budgets
working
that
have
either
been
made
in
Columbus
or
working
about
the
wrapping
clevis
of
9.3
million
dollars.
Total
film
budgets
in
our
city
that
below-the-line
spend
five
million
dollars,
and
this
is
something
that
we
presented
last
week
to
our
stakeholders
about
how
we
need
to
capture
more
of
that
below
the
lifespan.
By
bringing
additional
vendors
into
the
community
in
the
pipeline,
we
have
40
1.7
million
dollars
in
total
budgets
of
films.
E
Looking
at
Columbus,
this
reference,
roughly
nine
ten
films
that
we
are
prospecting,
we
hope
to
have
pre-production
start
on
one
of
those
before
the
end
of
this
fiscal
year
and
then
the
remainder
in
first
and
second
quarter
of
2020.
That
below
lines
spend
sixteen
point,
five
million
dollars.
So
again
you
see
that
this,
the
film
industry
is
significant
economic
driver
for
Columbus
and,
of
course
again
we
have
been
held
up
at
the
Georgia
Chamber
entertainment
coalition
meeting
this
past
week.
E
E
One
of
the
close
by
saying
that
this
sort
of
strategy
is
calculated,
we
watch
trends.
We
do
have
tons
of
research,
we're
always
talking
to
our
consultants
to
find
out
what
it
is
that
we
need
to
move
the
needle
to
make
sure
that
we
maintain
our
market
share
and
that
our
story
is
being
told
and
are
very
proud
to
stand
before
you
today
to
let
you
know
that
FY
19
was
a
great
year
for
us.
2020
is
fiscal.
E
2020
is
on
the
way
of
likewise
being
like
a
significant
year
for
us,
and
we
will
roll
out
some
additional
strategies
in
the
next
eight
months
to
support
the
new
infrastructure
that
is
being
planned
and
being
built
in
the
Uptown
area.
So
we'll
be
back
at
a
later
time
to
show
you
and
share
with
you
some
of
that
momentum
that
we
are
doing
to
capture
even
a
larger
portion
of
the
meeting
of
commission
segments.
B
N
You
mister
mountain
for
all
you
do
it
truly
appreciate
it.
You
and
your
team
has
always
done
an
amazing
job.
It's
such
impressing
I
wanted
to
ask
you.
Can
you
go
back
to
the
slide
where
it's
like
visit
29?
Could
you
explain
a
little
bit
to
myself
and
those
listening?
What
do
you
mean
by
that
is
that
businesses
they
visit,
what
our
site
visits
sure.
E
Site
visit
would
be,
for
example,
we
have
either
we've
got
a
prospect,
who's
interested
in
Columbus
they've,
looked
at
other
cities,
perhaps
or
maybe
were
the
first
first
on
their
selection
list,
and
so
we
invite
these
clients
into
the
community,
and
sometimes
it
can
take
place
over
a
couple
of
days
where
we
show
them
meeting
space
or
we
show
them
where
they
might
have.
A
military
reunion
show
the
different
venues
off.
We
show
them
restaurant
option.
E
We
show
the
client
how
their
meeting
will
fit
inside
the
city
regardless,
you
know
based
off
of
their
criteria
and
then
they
go
through
that
selection
process.
So
if
this
is,
this
is
staff
out
of
their
office
by
out
from
behind
their
desk
interfacing
one-on-one
with
clients,
in
order
to
show
the
city
off
as
a
great
place
for
meetings
and
conventions.
Okay,.
B
K
M
In
accordance
with
ordinance,
13
39,
our
elections
and
registration
director
is
here
to
request
additional
appropriations
from
Council
in
accordance
with
that
ordinance,
which
states
that
no
Department
or
elected
office
is
allowed
to
go
over
budget
without
first
requesting
additional
appropriation
and
coming
before
council.
To
do
so,
and
that
is
why
our
elections
and
registration
director
is
here
today.
M
I
Promised
during
my
initial
budget
review
meeting
I
did
say
that
I
would
probably
be
back
for
additional
funding
requests,
and
so
I
am
here
today
wanted
to
give
you
just
a
brief
overview
of
what
our
new
voting
system
looks
like.
What
you
see
here
is
about
marking
device
that
is
attached
to
a
commercial
off-the-shelf
printer.
I
The
voter
interface
will
be
relatively
similar
to
what
the
voter
is
accustomed
to.
They
will
touch
their
selections
on
the
big
touchscreen
that
you
see
there,
but
instead
of
casting
their
ballot
at
the
end
of
that,
they
will
print
their
ballot
to
the
printer
that
you
see
attached
to
the
ballot
marking
device.
I
What
we're
calling
the
printer
and
the
ballot
marking
devices
they
set
up
and
there
will
be
a
setup
for
every
250
registered
voters
in
a
precinct,
so
there
will
be
some
precincts
with
15
16
17
of
these
setups
at
the
precinct.
Every
three
setups
has
to
have
an
uninterrupted
power
source,
because,
while
these
are
all
commercial
off-the-shelf
printers,
they
don't
have
a
battery
backup,
so
we
have
to
provide
a
battery
backup
which
the
state
will
provide
for
us.
Second
part
of
this
is
the
pole
pad
or
way
you
check
in
as
the
boater.
I
So
you
will
bring
your
authorized
form
of
photo
ID.
You
will
bring
that
ID
to
the
poll
worker,
who
will
then
bring
your
record
up.
It's
kind
of
on
an
iPad
format
through
Apple
and
so
it'll
bring
your
ID
up
you,
the
voter
will
assign
the
little
hold
pad.
You
will
select
the
ballot
that
you
would
like
in
a
primary,
whether
that's
Republican,
Democrat
or
nonpartisan,
and
then
you'll
sign
it.
The
poll
worker
will
issue
you
the
card
and
you
will
take
it
right
back
to
this
about
marking
device
to
vote.
I
This
is
what
it
looks
like
for
the
voter
and
if
you
voted
in
the
last
18
years
of
Muskogee
County,
this
is
what
you
have
seen
when
you
have
gone
to
the
poll
to
vote.
There
are
several
options
on
this
ballot
marking
device
that
will
make
it
easier
for
the
voter.
We
can
enlarge
the
screen.
You
make
it
regular
size.
You
can
change
the
background,
so
it
helps
you
the
voter.
I
If
you
have
some
sight
issues,
here's
the
big
change
to
that
ballot
marking
device
where
it
used
to
say
cast
ballot
in
the
bottom
right
hand
corner.
It
will
now
say
print
ballot,
and
so
your
ballot
will
have
to
be
printed
next
to
the
or
it'll
be
on
the
printer
that
is
next
to
the
ballot
marking
device.
The
voter
will
then
take
that
printed
ballot
and
their
voter
access
card
to
an
optical
scan
machine
that
it
looks
like
this.
This
is
an
85-pound
bin
that
will
have
to
go
to
each
of
the
voting
precincts.
I
So
not
only
are
we
looking
at
new
equipment,
we
are
looking
at
new
transportation
issues,
getting
the
equipment
to
all
of
the
various
precincts
as
well
as
security
once
they
are
at
the
precincts.
The
state
will
be
providing
this.
Also
everything
I've
shown
you
so
far
the
state
is
providing
to
us
voting
is
as
easy
as
one
two
three
and
we
will
be
doing
some
public
service
announcements
to
help
those
voters
understand
the
printed
part
of
the
new
equipment.
I
What
we
don't
have,
though,
are
things
to
sit
that
ballot
marking
device
and
that
printer
on
once
it
gets
to
the
voting
precinct.
So
we've
done
a
lot
of
research.
We've
looked
at
six
foot
tables.
Eight
foot
tables
we've
met
with
manufacturing
people
to
try
to
manufacture
something
for
us
that
we
could
transport
and
set
up
the
equipment
on
that
is
transportable,
that
is
repeatable
by
poll
workers
and
easy
for
poll
workers
to
do
right
now
we're
looking
at
a
variety
of
things.
If
we
get
six
foot
tables,
we
can
fit
two
setups.
I
If
we
get
eight
foot
tables,
we
can
do
three
setups,
which
is
three
ballot
marking
devices
and
three
printers
getting
the
tables
to
the
precincts
and
then
having
poll
workers
set
it
up
may
pose
some
issues
for
us.
We've
also
found
an
equipment,
stand
that
we'll
retrofit
two
of
the
setups
and
they
back
up
side
to
side
to
each
other.
We
are
certainly
open
for
options
that
are
hoping
that
someone
comes
up
with
something
really
great
and
inexpensive
before
we
have
to
really
lock
down
and
make
that
purchase.
I
Preliminary
expenses
for
the
paper
for
the
presidential
preference
primary
in
March.
We
are
looking
at
roughly
twenty
six
thousand
dollars.
This
is
not
a
one-time
cost,
but
it
will
be
an
ongoing
cost.
Of
course,
the
first
time
you
have
to
stock
up
and
based
on
our
turnout,
we
may
have
some
bits
of
paper
left
over
each
precinct
so
that
it's
not
such
a
huge
expense,
except
for
the
first
time,
but
that
is
$26,000.
It
is
a
special
security
paper
and
it's
13
cents
a
sheet.
I
So
that's
why
we
are
looking
at
the
26
thousand
dollars
for
March
so
option.
One
I
just
looked
at
some
prices
for
the
six-foot
table
and
the
8-foot
table.
We
also
have
to
look
at
adjustable
tables
because,
because
we
have
to
meet
a
DA
requirements
for
people
with
disabilities,
they
have
to
be
a
certain
height,
so
some
of
our
tables
will
need
to
be
adjustable
to
accommodate
for
wheelchairs
and
for
those
with
disabilities.
So
the
voting
units
are
the
appropriate
height
for
the
voter
to
be
able
to
cast
their
ballot.
I
Those
expenditures
vary
based
on
the
size
of
the
table
and
how
many
adjustable
tables
we
do
purchase.
That
is
option.
One
option
two
is
buying
a
stand
that
we
have
found
that
will
accommodate
the
printer,
the
ballot
marking
device
and
they
kind
of
back
up
to
each
other,
and
it
will
accommodate
two
setups
on
the
one,
but
they
are
relatively
expensive
and
then,
of
course
the
third
is
the
paper
component
part
where
we
have
to
buy
the
paper
or
the
replacement
parts
for
the
printer
and
all
those
ongoing
expenses.
I
P
I
Typically,
it
would
only
be
one
piece
of
paper
unless
the
voter
changes
their
mind
in
the
process
and
the
voter
is
able,
because
you
haven't
voted
until
you
actually
feed
your
ballot
into
the
optical
scanner.
So
let's
say,
for
example,
you're
in
a
primary
and
you
don't
want
to
pick
a
partisan
ballot
to
begin
with-
and
you
say,
give
me
the
nonpartisan
ballot
voter
gets
to
the
voting
booth
and
says,
but
hey
I
wanted
to
vote
for
sheriff.
I
We
have
to
go
back,
we
have
to
spoil
that
ballot
and
then
we
have
to
issue
another
ballot.
So
for
that
voter.
Just
in
that
one
circumstance,
that's
two
pieces
of
paper.
So
to
answer
your
question
totally
I
do
not
know
how
many
pages
per,
but
each
ballot
each
official
ballot
that
will
be
cast
will
only
be
one
page.
So.
I
Because
we
will
be
able
to
print
print
front
and
back
on
that
piece
of
paper,
it
may
increase
the
length
of
the
paper,
but
it
will
not
increase
the
number
of
papers
that
the
voter
will
have
to
have
for
their
ballot,
so
it'll
be
one
front
and
back
either
eight
and
a
half
by
eleven,
eight
and
a
half
by
fourteen,
and
they
go
up
one
more
size.
So
thinking
the
size
of
the
ballot
can
go
up
based
on
what
is
on
the
ballot.
Okay,.
Q
I
There
probably
will
be
more
places
for
you
to
actually
go
in
cast
your
ballot
for
the
voter.
The
process
will
be
very
similar,
so
you'll
go
in
with
your
photo
right
photo
ID.
You
will
go
to
one
of
the.
What
we
call
now
poll
pads
instead
of
the
Express
poll
you'll
hand
that
to
the
poll
worker,
they
will
look
you
up
on
the
system.
I
They
will
have
you
sign
the
voter
certificate
electronically,
we're
hoping
so
that
we
don't
have
to
have
voter
certificates,
and
then
you
will
be
issued
a
better
access
card
that
you
will
then
take
to
the
ballot
marking,
device
and
print.
You
have
the
option
once
you
print,
so
you
can
review
on
the
ballot
marking
device.
I
You
could
review
on
the
ballot
marking
device
your
ballot
as
many
times
as
you
want
to.
You
can
change
it
as
often
as
you
want
to,
but
once
that
ballot
is
printed
once
that
ballot
is
printed,
then
to
spoil
that
ballot
you're
going
to
have
to
spoil
it
and
you're
going
to
have
to
go
back
through
the
process
to
have
another
ballot
created.
So
we
hope
to
have
signage
and
instructions
and
all
of
that
available
to
the
voter
so
that
it's
relatively
clear
after
you've
printed
the
ballot.
I
You
have
an
opportunity
to
review
your
ballot
and
you
can
review
it
and
make
sure
that
it
has
the
candidates
for
whom
you
would
like
to
vote.
And
if
it's
good
with
you
at
that
point,
then
you
would
take
your
ballot
to
the
optical
scan
based
on
the
size
of
the
precinct.
There
will
be
one
two
or
three
optical
scanners
at
the
precinct
and
a
lot
of
people
are
worried
about
that.
But
when
we
had
the
optical
scan
voting
equipment
from
96
to
2001,
we
only
had
one
of
these
setups
for
every
precinct.
I
Q
I
D
Z
I
I
We
have
the
AKS
here.
Last
week
we
go
to
Nazareth
Baptist
Church
on
Saturday,
so
we're
asking
people
if
they
would
like
for
a
group
to
be
able
to
see
the
equipment
actually
touch
it
and
feel
it
that
we
will
do
it,
just
as
we
did
when
we
implemented
to
the
touchscreen
voting
system
in
2002.
Thank
you.
N
K
M
So
that
rep,
the
two
hundred
thousand
represents
about
0.39
Reserve
days
and
at
this
point
in
time,
the
funding
source
would
be
reserves.
If,
however,
I'm
optimistic
right,
FY
2010
out
to
be
very
similar
to
FY
19,
hopefully
we'll
have
other
departmental
savings
that
will
cover
this
$200,000
expense.
Well,.
B
D
I
A
hundred
and
fifty
million
dollars
was
appropriated
for
this
new
voting
system.
The
state
only
spent
one
hundred
and
seven
million,
so
we
are
hoping
election
officials
are
hoping
that
there
will
be
an
opportunity
to
apply
for
grants
to
help
us
with
the
implementation,
and
if
so,
we
will
continue
to
do
that.
No.
K
K
AA
This
is
really
just
an
update
on
city
village,
which
has
really
transformed
itself
into
the
mill
district
for
those
who
weren't
on
council.
At
the
time
the
the
previous
mayor
participated
in
a
case
study
back
in
2012
related
to
what
we
called
city
village.
She
established
a
steering
committee
at
that
time
appointed
by
the
mayor.
The
co-chairs
were
fill'd
Tomlinson
and
Marquette
McKnight.
It
included
over
a
hundred
and
twenty-five
individuals,
many
organizations,
businesses
and
agencies
along
the
second
Avenue
corridor,
where
city
village
is
located.
AA
There
was
an
introduction
process
into
what's
called
purpose-built
communities
which
will
be
discussed
with
the
mill
district
update
consultant
was
hired
back
in
2014
to
develop
a
master
plan
for
this
particular
area
of
the
community.
There
were
multiple
group
and
individual
stakeholders
meetings,
roundtable
discussions,
community
meetings
over
the
next
year,
or
so
after
2014
in
2016
those
results
and
that
master
plan
was
presented
to
council
and
then
the
mill
district
really
has
picked
up
from
that
point
and
taking
it
just
another
step.
K
I
was
here
when
we
kicked
off
the
Liberty
district
effort
in
2003
with
the
master
plan
in
2003
master
plan,
the
city
village
master
plan
came
about
in
2014,
though
they
got
started
in
2012
and
I've
said
before
in
this
seat.
That
I
would
like
to
see
something
done
in
the
Liberty
district
in
my
lifetime
and
I
continue
to
doubt
that
that
might
occur.
K
We've
tried
different
things
and
there's
been
opposition
at
every
turn
and
I
do
believe
it's
time
to
do
something
with
the
Liberty
district.
I
believe
that
the
the
city
village
model
is
a
good
model
to
follow,
and
that's
why
I
had
the
deputy
city
manager
to
out
land
where
it
started
in
2012
and
how
it
got
started
and
who
appointed
the
the
committee
and
who
the
Vice
the
co-chairs
were
and
and
the
master
plan
came
forward,
was
adopted
by
this
group
in
2014.
K
K
K
AB
AB
So
our
mission
with
the
mill
district
and
just
to
give
you
a
little
bit
of
evolution
and
transition
from
city
village
to
the
mill
district,
say
village,
is
to
find
neighborhood,
basically
between
the
total
systems
campus
downtown
and
the
Johnston
mill
loft
project,
and
the
mill
district
has
expanded
that
that
project
area
to
include
four
total
neighborhoods,
so
that
the
area
that
you
see
highlighted
there
in
yellow
on
the
map
is
what
we,
what
has
historically
been
known
as
the
City
Village
neighborhood.
Second
Avenue,
essentially
runs
north
to
south
through
the
middle
of
those.
AB
These
four
quadrants
at
the
very
top
left
is
Bibb
City,
which
most
people
are
familiar
with
and
then
on.
The
top
right
is
Anderson
Village,
which
is
around
the
Godwin
Creek
Golf
Course,
all
the
way
up
to
Manchester,
expressway
and
and
then
in
the
southeastern,
quadrant
and
blue,
is
what
we
call
the
North
Highland
neighborhood,
which
has
been
its
historic
name
for
for
years
and
years,
and
so
you
may
ask
where
the
mill
district
come
from.
AB
AB
Well,
if
we
were
ignoring
everything
that
was
around
it,
we
weren't
really
doing
the
most
good
for
the
surrounding
community,
because
the
area's
east
of
2nd
Avenue
are
areas
that
I'm
sure
you
all
are
familiar
with
areas
of
disinvestment,
poverty,
etc,
and
so
we've
we
felt
the
urge
and
need
kind
of
as
community
stakeholders
to
to
take
a
harder
look
at
this
work
that
we
were
trying
to
to
implement.
So
you
see
them
the
current
mill
district
board
on
the
right
hand,
side
there.
AB
We've
got
a
lot
of
good
stakeholders,
residents
in
the
neighborhood,
organizational
leaders,
they're
doing
existing
work
and
they
ever
hood
and
then
just
to
give
you
an
idea
of
where
we
are
staffing,
wise,
I
work,
full
time
for
historic
Columbus.
The
previous
mayor
asked
historic
columbus
to
help
administer
the
city
village
master
plan.
AB
Historic
Columbus's
wanted
to
stay
engaged
in
the
process
just
because
it
fits
within
our
of
work
at
historic,
Columbus
and,
and
so
the
mill
district
now
contracts
for
two
days
worth
of
my
time
to
dedicate
towards
the
mill
district
effort.
It's
our
hope
and
my
hope
that
that
that,
at
the
beginning
of
next
year,
sometime
in
kind
of
early
spring
that
the
mill
district
will
be
able
to
to
to
hire
and
sustain
its
own
executive
director.
AB
One
thing
that
we
may
not
do
the
best
job
of
is
being
very
targeted
in
that
work
and
then
so
what
we
have
found
in
our
exposure
to
purpose-built
is
that
when
you
do
that,
when
you
target
those
investments
in
a
strategic
way,
you
are
able
to
make
some
significant
gains
when
it
comes
to
a
community,
and
so
you'll
see
the
organization
of
kind
of
how
things
are
set
up.
The
community
quarterback,
that's
a
general
term
that
purpose
bill
gives
an
organization
like
the
mill
district.
AB
It's
the
community
advocacy
group
that
helps
to
find
defined
strategies
for
those
three
areas,
and
you
do
that
in
a
defined
neighborhood
or
a
defined
geography,
and
those
that
includes
the
four
neighborhoods
that
we're
working
within
roughly
750
acres.
These
are
numbers
that
I'm
sure
you
all
are
from.
These
are
numbers
that
the
Chamber
of
Commerce
is
familiar
with.
Were
you
know,
Columbus
wide
miss
go
countywide
we're
looking
at
almost
22%
of
our
of
our
population.
That's
in
poverty.
Our
median
household
income
is
behind
the
national
average.
AB
So
when
it
comes
to
mixed
income
housing,
we
have
a
developed
defined
strategy
for
for
how
to
implement
some
of
this
work.
Neighborhoods
Columbus
is
is
one
of
our
primary
partners.
They
currently
have
a
income
restricted
senior
living
facility
under
development.
Now
it's
right
next
to
Fox,
Elementary
called
Highland
Terrace,
it's
in
the
location
of
the
old
Meredith's
mill
site,
it'll,
develop
about
a
hundred
or
so
senior
housing
units
they've
also
been
doing
some
strategic
demolition
and
acquisition
in
an
along
fourth
Avenue,
one
of
the
most
challenged
streets
in
the
entire
area.
AB
The
three
images
you
see
there
at
the
bottom:
that's
the
the
cosy
corner
if
you're
familiar
with
that
property
located
at
35th,
Street
and
4th
Avenue,
but
we're
already
beginning
to
see
some
positive
movement
in
terms
of
crime
and
things
like
that
in
and
along
4th
Avenue
in
that
particular
area.
Another
critical
partner
in
terms
of
providing
affordable
housing
is,
of
course,
the
local
housing
authority.
Chase
homes
is
located
within
the
mill
district
area.
AB
We
should
be
seeing
the
Housing
Authority
should
receive
the
low
income,
housing
tax
credit
award
from
DCA
to
bring
that
housing
down
and
then
rebuild
on
that
existing
site
on
the
northern
portion
to
move
it
away
as
best
as
possible
from
the
railroad
tracks
and
the
electrical
substations.
The
the
interesting
thing
about
the
redevelopment
of
Chase
homes
will
be
that
it
will
include
like
at
Columbus
Commons
in
the
Liberty
district.
AB
It
will
include
a
mixed
income
component,
and
so
some
of
the
experts
at
purpose-built
and
and
some
of
some
other
like
projects
in
the
country
have
found
that
there
is
a
need
and
a
great
benefit
to
providing
mixed
income
housing
and
not
concentrating
poverty
in
one
particular
development
or
one
particular
area.
So
the
new
Chase
homes,
whatever
it
ends
up
being
called,
will
have
a
mixed
income
component,
which
will
will
mean
that
there
will
be
market
rate
apartments,
affordable
apartments
and
then
deep
subsidy
apartments
available
to
the
community.
AB
Education
is
a
is
a
big
portion
of
this
work
and
it's
frankly,
something
that
is
not
my
particular
background
or
strong
suit.
So
I've
relied
on
many
of
people
on
our
on
our
board
and
community
members
to
assist
with
some
of
this
work.
But
one
of
the
big
things
that
purpose-built
community's
pushes
is
to
develop
a
cradle
to
college
pipeline
and
that
can
come
in
many
forms
and
it
is
for
Columbus.
AB
So
far
it
has
come
in
the
form
of
a
an
MoU
with
the
school
district,
particularly
particularly
directed
at
Fox
elementary
school,
and
so
we
have
an
education
governance
committee
that
works
directly
with
Fox
directly
with
the
principal
there
dr.
vent
Scarborough
to
help
fill
the
gap
when
when
gaps
are
discovered
and
and
so
today
the
mill
district
has
fundraised
and
is
going
to
provide
three
hundred
thousand
dollars
a
year
for
five
years,
going
forward
to
fund
four
critical
positions
at
Fox.
Elementary
dr.
Scarborough
right
now
does
not
have
an
assistant
principal.
AB
She
does
not
have
a
dedicated
social
worker,
a
parent
involvement,
specialist
or
a
K
through
two
instructional
coach,
and
those
are
the
things
that
she
tells
us
and
the
purpose-built
backs
up.
Those
are
critical
needs
at
that
school,
and
so
those
are
needs
that
the
mill
district
has
been
able
to
fulfill
for
this
year
and
will
be
for
five
years
going
forward.
We're
also
working
with
a
neighborhood
kind
of
community-based
faith-based
private
school
called
true
Spring
Academy.
Many
of
you
may
be
familiar
with
the
work
that
Rob
and
Carrie
Strickland
do
at
this
school.
AB
They
do
a
great
job,
taking
some
of
the
some
of
the
most
difficult
cases
at
Fox
and
providing
them
a
smaller
classroom,
size
and
more
one-on-one
time,
and
so
today,
they've
got
a
cake
through
four
they've
got
K
through
four
classes,
roughly
60
kids
total
and
they
expand
a
grade
every
year,
we're
working
with
them
and
having
discussions
with
him
about
developing
an
Early,
Learning
Center.
One
of
the
things
that
we
have
found
in
this
work
that
is
critical
to
families.
AB
AB
Mercy
Medical
Umba
is
helping
lead
the
way
to
provide
affordable
health
care
right
smack
in
the
middle
of
the
project
area
open
door,
Community
House
provides
serve
safe
certification
program
that
will
ultimately
lead
to
kind
of
career
training,
job
training,
opportunities
for
people
in
the
area
and
we're
exploring
some
other
opportunities,
such
as
medically
tailored
meals
and
things
like
that.
The
city's
also
been
a
large
player
in
terms
of
providing
connections
that
are
critical
to
people
that
that
don't
have
a
car
I
mean
the
the
connections
of
the
Riverwalk
just
last
year.
AB
AB
There
are
other
there
2627
other
network
members,
which
Columbus
is
now
one
of
as
of
last
last
month
and
that
affords
us
a
lot
of
legitimization
when
it
comes
to
applying
for
grants
and
things
of
that
sort,
and
we
think
it's
a
it's
a
great
model
and
we'll
see
how
it
goes.
It
is
long-term
work,
hopefully,
city
manager.
We
will
see
it
in
your
lifetime
on
Second
Avenue,
as
well
as
the
Liberty
district,
but
we
feel
like
this
is
a
great
place
to
start.
B
N
Mr.
clay,
thank
you
very
much
for
that
presentation.
I
too,
was
there
from
the
beginning.
I
took
the
walk
when
we
first
looked
at
of
Bibb
City,
so
I'm,
aware
of
where
it's
been
and
where
it's
come
matter
of
fact.
During
that
conversation
and
I
had
and
I
said,
I
bet
this
project
will
take
off
first,
and
it
did
my
question
to
you
is
as
we're
using
this
as
an
exam
people
will
then
the
Lord
or
some
of
the
organizations
like
the
historic
district,
the
school
system
in
looking
at
the
Liberty
district?
A
N
N
That
organization,
you
know
for
those
interested
in
helping
delivery
district
to
get
educated
on
it
to
see
because
I
like
Isaiah
in
my
lifetime,
because
I'm
planning
on
going
to
work
Columbus
is
my
home
in
my
lifetime.
I
would
love
to
see
them
every
district,
and
my
only
interest
in
it
is
not
because
it's
in
my
district,
but
it
was
the
rich
history
that
it
has,
and
we
can.
One
of
our
slogan
says
we
preserve
our
community
in
the
past
and
now
we're
saying
amazing
things
are
happening.
Look
at
Uptown
when
we
were
doing
uptown.
N
A
lot
of
people
didn't
didn't.
Think
of
Tom
will
turn
out
to
where
it
was
gonna.
Be
a
lot
of
people
were
not
very
supportive
when
we
had
hockey,
they
say
hockey
and
in
Columbus.
You
know
what
so
I
know
it
could
happen.
It's
just
a
matter
of
timing
and
the
key
people
being
involved
and
I
just
feel
that
if
organizations
like
yourself
for
success
somewhere
I'm
going
to
get
it
I
feel
that
they
can
share
that
knowledge
or
assistant
to
get
the
air
other
area.
N
AB
P
K
All
of
these
people
were
not
in
the
room,
you
know
some
fell
off
and
that
there
are
two
pages
some
fell
off
in
some
kept
coming
and
at
the
end
of
the
day,
you
were
ended
up
with
3035
people
there,
but
they
were
people
who
were
committed
and
willing
to
work,
not
saying
they
weren't
committed.
But
you
had
enough
to
go
around
but
yeah
participating
organizations.
You
can
see
architects
and
you
know
just
you
see
the
list
and
but
but
this
list
was
I,
don't
know
who
created
the
list.
K
K
You
know
who
you're
working
with
now
and
so
I
said
all
that
to
say:
counselor
Woodson,
that
once
you
established
a
core
committee,
then
that
working
committee
is
going
to
solicit
historic
Columbus
and
all
these
other
organizations
to
come
to
the
table
and
buy-in
just
like
you
bought
in
in
city
village.
We
want
the
same
kind
of
work
out
of
you
and
so
I
think
you
know
if
you
can
get
it
organized
and
get
it
going.
K
D
N
AB
AB
And-
and
let
me
offer
this
to
the
council
I-
think
historic
Columbus
has
the
interest
in
the
Liberty
district
I,
don't
know
that
we've
got
the
the
staff
power
to
commit
kind
of
what
we
have
committed
there
right
now,
as
we've
got
committed
currently
to
to
the
mill
district.
But
we
would
like
to
participate
in
the
process
and
maybe
it's
you
know,
maybe
some
help
will
come
and
somewhat
of
a
an
unbiased
third
party.
You
know
some,
you
know
that.
Doesn't
we
don't
have
a
particular
agenda?
N
K
Mr.
mayor
I,
don't
want
to
prolong
and
I'm
I,
don't
have
any
more
questions
or
anything
else.
I
don't
know
if
there
are
any
other
questions,
but
I
just
wanted
to
say
that
here's
a
model
and
they
started
much
later
than
a
liberty
district,
and
we
see
the
progress
that
they've
made
and
we
see
the
lack
of
progress.
B
Liberty
I
think
the
model
that
has
been
developed-
and
it's
currently
functioning
quite
well
is-
is
it
can
be
broader
than
just
the
Liberty
I
think
that,
as
we
look
at
the
areas
and
pockets
of
poverty
and
substandard
housing
and
limited
access
to
medical
and
education
facilities,
I
think
it's
a
it's
a
template
that
we
could
use
to
try
to
go
in
there
and
and
revitalize
communities
throughout
this.
This
city
I
really
applaud
what
you
guys
have
done
and
I
think
it's
interesting
too
that
it's!
B
You
know
if
you
try
to
get
real
romanticized
about
the
thing,
but
you
you
know
the
town
started
on
the
river
because
of
the
power
of
the
water.
You
know
fueling
the
mills
and
it
spread
north
and
it
spread
southeast,
and
we
see
that
happening
again.
The
energy
from
the
river
that
has
created
all
this
excitement
in
the
Uptown
area,
in
the
vitality
that
we're
seeing
in
this
community
in
it
spreading
north
up
the
second
Avenue
corner
and
it
will
be
spreading
to
the
southeast
into
the
liver,
so
great
job,
Thank,
You,.
R
City
manager,
normally
I,
wouldn't
do
this
and
you
you
know,
I'm
a
baseball
player.
You
know,
baseball
players
are
superstitious
and
I
I'm
superstitious.
So
you
know
there's
an
old
saying
in
the
game:
it's
an
unwritten
rule,
it's
a
golden
rule
that
you
never
packed
the
bats
before
the
bottom
of
the
ninth.
You
know
you
just
don't
wait
until
the
game's
over
I
got
a
I
got
to
say
this
and
I'm
doing
it.
R
But
let
me
just
tell
you
it
opened
yesterday
and
and
I
just
wanted
to
share
something
with
the
staff,
because
I
know
that
you
guys
sometimes
y'all
get
the
brunt
of
it,
but
at
the
same
time
it
wouldn't
be
possible
without
the
coordination,
the
efforts,
the
hard
work,
the
piecing
together
mr.
city
manager,
of
the
funding
and
all
those
things
to
make
it
happen,
and
you
know
these
are
some
of
the
things
that's
been
said
this
morning.
R
It
was
great
I
rode
through
it
without
an
issue,
money,
well-spent,
fastest
I've,
ever
gone
through
that
intersection
at
five
o'clock.
While
I
went
through
it
this
morning,
7:30
you
know,
I
went
through
it
three
four
times
faster
than
I've
ever
been
through,
that
intersection,
I
drove
through
in
the
peak
traffic
hours,
very
smooth,
no
congestion,
big.
Thank
you.
The
engineers
contractors
workmen
all
those
who
made
it
possible
in
a
short
amount
of
time.
Yes,
it's
working
well
wasn't
backed
up
smooth
as
silk.
It's
great,
thank
you.
I
mean
you
kind
of
get
it's
functional.
R
No
traffic
standing,
Bravo
kudos
to
the
city
move
traffic
I
mean
it
just
keeps
the
great
improvement
for
the
intersection
and
I
think
you
get
the
picture.
That's
all
I've
received
this
morning.
It's
just
one
after
another,
and
you
know
people
talk
about
these
things
a
lot
of
money.
It
costs
a
lot
of
money.
Well,
let
me
just
ask
a
question:
how
much
money
does
you
think
it
costs
to
do
road
improvements?
These
days
really
I
mean
with
the
economy
just
rocking
state
of
Georgia
as
the
highest
GDP
in
the
whole
country
hard.
R
It's
a
contractor's
world
out
there
they
mean
sometimes
they're
on
the
bottom
of
the
list,
but
they're
at
the
top
right
there,
it's
expensive
to
get
things
done
these
days.
Material
costs
are
the
highest
they've
been.
So
you
know
it's
not
just
this
project.
It's
all
projects,
it's
gonna
cost
money
to
give
them
done.
But
let
me
just
tell
you
that
contractor
that's
been
out.
There
has
been
exceptional,
just
unbelievable
and
done
a
great
job
and
I
talked
to
him.
Yesterday.
R
R
Yeah
everybody's
been
enjoying
the
holiday
festivities
with
the
porta
potti,
that's
been,
that's
been
incredible
and
then
I
found
out.
It
wasn't
really
the
contractor.
Actually,
some
of
the
neighbors
that
have
been
walking
by
and
going
down
there
and
just
doing
it
for
everybody,
so
kind
of
brighten
your
day
up
a
little
bit,
but
that's
kind
of
been
a
great
focal
point
of
the
of
the
roundabout
is
the
the
decorated
holiday
tradition,
porta
potti,
that's
okay!
You
can
go
right
now,
Thanksgiving,
it's
decorated
to
Thanksgiving.
They
just
finished
how
we
know
it's
Thanksgiving.
Well,.
K
And
I
appreciate
you
bringing
that
up
and
we
should
have
mentioned
it,
but
an
awesome
project.
I
think
great
end
result
and
we're
getting
that
kind
of
feedback
as
well,
but
I
wanted
to
deputy
city
manager
to
just
reiterate
the
cost
and
and
you're
right,
there's
more
work
to
be
done,
but
it's
it
turned
out.
It's
beautiful
and
it's
functional,
it's
it's!
It's
it's
processing,
the
traffic
and
I
think
at
the
end
of
the
day,
people
are
really
really
going
to
be
happy.
R
To
highlight
that
the
you
know,
people
come
and
go
people
move
and
transition.
You
got
new
people
coming
in
the
community
and
a
lot
of
this
stuff's
new.
But
if
you
know
the
history
I
mean
you
know
this
yeah.
When
I
first
came
on
with
his
council,
my
phone
rang
off
the
hook
about
getting
something
done
there
at
an
intersection.
How
many
times
I
call
you?
What
can
we
do?
What
can
we
do?
How
many
public
meetings
that
we
have
about?
What
could
we
do?
There
were
no
options,
DoD
wouldn't
work
with
us.
R
There
were
no
options,
so
it's
set
on
the
long-range
traffic
plan.
We
got
it
moved
up
to
the
short-range
traffic
plan.
Some
funding
was
set
aside,
but
it's
been
there
for
a
long
time.
Until
this
option
came
available
and
the
d-o-t
accepted
it,
they
wouldn't
fall
in
it.
They
wouldn't
do
anything
else.
The
only
thing
they
were
going
to
do
is
really
more
of
the
same
at
a
cost
and
that
wouldn't
be
acceptable
because
people
would
really
get
upset
about
the
waste
of
money,
because
you
really
didn't
change
anything.
R
AA
This
is
a
locally
funded
project.
It
was
a
5.4
million
dollar
budget
made
up
of
multiple
funding
sources,
Oh
lost
infrastructure,
1.3
million
the
paving
fund,
700,000
L
Meg.
We
utilized
state
funding
for
this
project
as
well
for
1.5
million
stormwater
400,000
for
the
culvert
work
and
also
a
prior-year
SPLOST
at
1.5
million.
AA
You
mentioned
the
contractor
that
was
southeastern
site
development
that
was
approved
by
counsel
for
construction
in
July
of
2018.
The
project
should
be
completed
the
first
quarter
of
next
year,
the
the
traffic
circle
roundabout
itself
is
completed,
so
traffic
is
flowing
through
the
round
of,
but
there's
a
lot
of
ancillary
work
to
be
done.
The
landscaping,
but
this
will
also
make
it
much
safer
for
pedestrian
crossings
and
there'll
be
a
lot
more
signage
in
this
location.
It
slows
traffic
down
in
this
area,
so
it
should
be
a
major
improvement
along
River,
Road
and
Bradley
Park.
R
K
AA
Of
the
327
million
two
hundred
and
twenty
million
of
that
is
in
the
South
Columbus
region,
so
we
have
multiple
projects
going
on
with
the
spiderweb
project,
the
interchange
at
casita,
Road
and
185
of
the
diverging
diamond,
that's
happening
on
Winn,
Avista,
Road
and
185,
the
roundabout,
that's
realigning
Brennan,
Road
and
Fort
Benning
Road
they'll
be
around
about
there.
So
just
projects
like
the
city
manager
said
going
on
all
over
town.
A
vast
majority
of
them
are
in
South
Columbus
and
those
are
much-needed
projects.
AA
K
R
And
there's
a
good
point:
mint
city
managers
are
really
all
the
stuff
is
restricted.
Funds
I
mean
the
stuff
we're
talking
about.
This
is
not
the
general
fund
or
the
operating
budget.
Whatever
this
is
money
that
is
reserved
and
or
more
for
transportation
improvements,
and
it
comes
from
several
different
pots.
I
mean
it's
all
when
you
piece
through
the
city,
it's
routine,
to
piece
it
all
together,
whether
it's
tea
spots
or
the
infrastructure
from
the
from
their
lost
I
mean
law
that
money
comes
from
there.
R
I
mean
this
is
stuff
that
the
citizens
asked
for
and
they're
getting
it
in
the
tune
of
what
you
just
said,
over
300
million
of
road
improvements
throughout
the
throughout
the
city
and
and
they're
going
to
continue,
but
that's
how
it's
done?
Yes,
whether
it's
from
the
federal
government,
a
state
government
or
local.
That's
how
it's
done
here
mayor.

U
Again,
I
am
Audrey
Holsten
Palmore
and,
as
I
previously
stated,
I
am
still
awestruck
by
the
letter
of
the
wrist
manager
sent
to
me
on
March
7th
2019.
My
daughter
continues
to
say
to
me
in
her
expression
of
disbelief
of
the
content
of
the
letter
and
that
she
wants
an
opportunity
to
refute
that
the
inaccuracy
pinned
by
the
risk
manager
named
and
Marie
Emil.
This
is
the
letter,
the
book
of
hosting
peril
or
a
right
to
justice
conceived
during
this
issue.
U
Yes,
to
silence
the
pathetic
voice
in
justice
representing
the
Columbus
consolidated
government,
because
the
justice
of
truth
manifestation
has
arrived
and
will
not
go
away.
The
celebration
of
Kwanzaa,
which
has
the
principle
of
unity,
God
spirit,
unity,
thought
to
be
referred
to
in
the
u.s.
pledge,
not
the
ungodly
decorations
of
denial.
The
noodling
and
confusion.
U
Spoke
of
in
verbalizations
by
the
Columbus
consolidated
government
representative
concerning
this
issue
on
today.
I
am
expecting
a
motion
be
raised
by
this
governing
body
and
a
second
offered
to
affirm
a
vote
by
the
body
to
allow
a
meeting
be
held
with
us
meeting
the
inclusion
of
my
self
and
my
daughter
in
the
person-to-person
meeting,
with
the
risk
manager.
Sooner
than
later,
perhaps
this
council,
as
a
body,
can
reflect
on
integrity
and
unity
as
moving
forward
as
we
will
continue
to
do
during
the
Kwanzaa
period.
U
Please
vote
to
allow
the
meeting
with
the
risk
manager
to
occur.
My
next
appearance
on
the
public
agenda
about
this
concern
will
be
January,
14
2020
again,
thank
you
for
your
attention
at
this
time.
I
would
like
to
have
you
all
do
the
motion
and
it
be
second
by
this
body,
so
that
we
can
move
forward
perhaps
before
January
14
2020
continue
to
have
a
good
day.
V
I
leave
it
for
9:15,
st.
Francis
Avenue
in
Columbus
Georgia.
Thank
you
for
hearing
me
again.
I
just
wanted
to
say
that
all
you
know
I'm
not
asking
able
to
make
any
changes
in
the
length
of
these
RVs.
You
know
I'm.
You
know
that
I'm
not
asking
you.
You
know,
that's
not
even
in
to
rebuild
it
for
discuss
it
right
now.
The
only
thing
I'm
asking
you
to
do
is
just
to
adopt
a
certain
way,
a
definite
way
to
measure
an
RV.
V
The
way
it
is
right
now
is
up
in
the
air,
and
anybody
can
be
so
questionable
if
you
go
out
to
measure
their
RV
about.
Why
are
you
imagining
here?
Why
don't
you
just
measure
this
and
so
forth,
and
I
can
understand
that?
But
if
you
change
this
thing
with
that
simple
situation,
it
will
eliminate
that
that
problem,
you
won't
ever
have
a
problem
again.
V
Mr.
Allen
brought
a
while
ago,
different
campers
have
different
living
spaces.
Well
that
that
you
know
that's
really
not
the
way.
It
is
folks
because
of
motorhome
you
measure
from
here
to
here.
That's
all
living
space.
You
only
know
the
kind
of
camp
you
got
some
fifth
wheel
being
us
all
from
here
to
here.
You
know:
there's
no
tongue
on
it.
V
V
If
you
go
out
there
and
buy
a
trailer,
if
you
buy
an
8
by
12
trailer,
it's
8
by
12
that
they
don't
know
measure
the
tongue
up
front
as
part
of
that
camper
I
mean
you
know
in
the
same
way,
with
a
closed-in
trailer.
If
you
buy
an
8
by
12
is
8
by
12,
they
measure
the
box.
If
you
go
to
a
campground,
a
lot
of
campgrounds
will
not
accept
a
camper
over
certain
link
the
feet
if
they
were,
if
they
only
accept
36
feet.
V
Campers,
if
you
go
to
their
campground,
if
they're
in
doubt
about
your
camper
think
about
that
measure,
they
measure
the
box.
You
know
36
feet
long.
If
it's,
if
it's
37
feet
long,
you
can't
you
can't
stay
there.
So
I
mean
if
you
go,
buy
a
new
camper
y'all.
If
you
go
to
the
side
of
the
every
camper
they're
sitting
on
all
thousands
of
them
all
over
the
United
States
they're
on
the
side,
it's
Kotla,
it's
kind
of
a
number
on
it.
That
number
is
amazement
of
that
camper.
From
the
front
to
the
back.
V
B
Play
will
appreciate
and
I
hope,
I
hope.
You
understand
that
I
think
we've
had
at
least
two
or
three
counselors
that
are
believers.
You
know
that
it
should
be
more
clearly
defined.
I
think
the
challenge
we
have
is
that
there
are
other
tow
behind
structures
that
would
also
be
covered
in
this
particular
ordinance
and
I.
Think
that's
where
some
of
the
confusion
so
they've
asked
mr.
R
David
Mr
paid
I'm,
not
sure
if
anybody
asks
you
this
question,
but
I
am
curious.
I
know:
I
used
an
example
of
your
neighbors.
I
did
say
your
neighbors
might
be
concerned,
I
that
was
that
was
in
general,
okay.
That
was
just
an
example.
I
don't
know,
but
I
would
like
to
ask
you.
Do
you
live
in
the
neighborhood?
Are
you
rural
area
or
no.
R
V
Conservatists
that
that
RV
has
been
in
my
camp
in
my
yard
for
20
years
beside
my
house,
not
that
one
but
other
ones,
I've
never
had
a
camper
under
36
feet.
Long
okay,
they've
been
in
my
driveway
for
over
20
years.
The
reason
what
happened
I
pulled
that
camper,
which
is
38
feet
long
in
front
of
my
house,
because
I
wanted
to
do
some
concrete
work
in
my
backyard.
In
my
driveway
quality
it
was
out
there
about
a
week.
Somebody
came
by
you're,
gonna
call
the
city,
so
the
city
came,
Zaida
comes
out
there
measures.
V
V
No
sir,
that
wouldn't
I
mean
I
already
had
concrete
in
my
driveway.
The
camper
was,
you
know
the
Kemper.
Was
they
been
in
my
driveway
for
20
years,
I
mean
that's
where
I've
always
kept
it,
because
it
wasn't
in
my
front
yard.
The
only
reason
it
was
in
my
front
yard
for
that
one
week
is
because
I
was
doing
some
work
in
my
backyard
and
I
needed.
You
know
access
to
my
backyard
without
any.
V
Towards
the
back
or
no
so
I
could
I
could
easily
I
mean
I
sold.
My
camper
for
I
lost
so
much
money
on
this
RV
that
I
had
to
get
rid
of
it
because
it
was
36
feet,
long,
I,
loved
it,
my
wife
and
I
loved
it.
We
got
rid
of
it
because
I
mean
we
had
$35,000
in
that
camper
and
sold
it
for
20
right,
but
if
we
can't
keep
it
at
home,
I
don't
want
I
want
to
keep
my
stuff
at
home,
so
I
can
take
care
of
it.
V
I
mean
the
camper
is
far
as
a
keeping
it
in
my
backyard.
If,
when
I
came
down
here
last
time,
if
y'all
had
a
choice
to
change
the
ordinance
to
what
we
talked
about
last
time
to
where
you
could
have
a
camper
longer
than
32
feet
as
long
as
it
was
not
in
your
front
yard,
as
long
as
it
was
in
your
bed,
you're
back
in
your
driveway,
you
know-
and
that's
where
it's
being
at
my
home
for
all
these
years,
but
but
I
understand
y'all
situation.
V
I
know
you
can't
make
everybody
happy,
but
if
you
change
this
thing
to
just
measure
the
Box
hard
the
living
space,
you
will
never
have
a
problem
again.
I
guarantee
you.
It
will
eliminate
a
probably
probably
50%
of
this
man's
right.
Here's
a
problem
when
he
goes
out
to
measure
camera
because
there
won't
be
no
dead
because
most
people,
probably
if
when
he
goes
out
to
measure
these
things
they
said
Wayne.
Why
are
you
measuring
this?
Why
don't
you
just
measure
the
dogs,
because
everything
else
that
you
buy
is
measured
that
way
well,.
R
B
B
Motion
second,

go

session,
all
those
in

Okay,
we're

all
right.
