This
is
your
City
Council
good.
A
B
At
the
Columbus
City
Council,
we
very
much
appreciate
your
patience.
We
know
you've
been
delayed
because
of
our
budget
meeting,
but
I
also
know
that
you
understand
how
important
that
is.
So
we're
going
to
try
to
jump
back
on
schedule,
go
ahead
and
get
things
kicked
off.
We
have
pastor
Dennis
Lacey
is
here
to
provide
us
our
invocation
he's
with
North
Highland
Assembly
of
God
Church,
and
we're
going
to
have
you
come
on
up
pastor
if
you
would
and
provide
us
with
the
invocation
consistent
with
your
faith,
tradition.
Thank.
C
You,
let's
pray
our
Father,
who
art
in
heaven
hallowed
be
your
name
as
we
began
the
City
Council
meeting.
We
want
to
echo
the
words
of
the
psalmist
when
he
said
this
is
a
day
the
Lord
has
made.
We
will
rejoice
and
be
glad
in
it.
We
have
much
to
rejoice
about
this
evening.
Thank
you
for
this
incredible
City,
where
you
allow
us
to
live
and
work
and
worship
and
raise
our
children
what
an
incredibly
blessed
City.
C
We
we
ask
for
your
help,
particularly
as
we
look
at
budget
items
because
usually
seems
to
go
that
we
have
more
vision
than
we
have
resources
for
so
to
another
miracle,
like
you
did
with
that
little
lads
lunch.
Where
you
spread
the
fish
and
loaves
and
fed
a
multitude
just
to
help
us
have
ways,
we
can
stretch
this
budget
and
do
what
is
necessary
and
we
pray
for
our
nation.
We
know
blessed.
Is
the
nation
whose
God
is
the
Lord
righteousness
exalts
a
nation?
So
we
pray
it
again.
We
sung
it
for
years.
C
We
prayed
it
for
years,
but
we
pray
it
again
this
evening,
god
Bless
America
and
we
love
our
country,
and
we
just
ask,
as
we
conclude
this
prayer,
that
as
your
followers,
you
would
make
us
agents
special
agents
of
your
mercy
that
we
would
go
out
looking
for
people
in
crisis
and
that
we
would
listen
to
them
and
look
for
people
with
unmet
needs
and
help
them
work
for
people
who
need
friends
and
show
hospitality
to
them.
Look
for
people
who
need
a
second
chance
and
help
them
believe
in
themselves.
Again.
C
C
There
are
a
lot
of
people
who
have
experienced
loss
and
we
would
be
remiss
tonight
if
we
did
not
lift
up
our
friends
in
the
UK
who
experienced
that
horrific
tragedy
and
that
ruthless
attack
I
pray
for
all
of
their
family
is
that
you
Holy
Spirit
would
comfort
them,
as
only
you
can,
and
we
thank
you
for
it.
We
give
you
praise.
We
ask
in
the
name
of
our
Lord,
o
man.
B
Master
lacy,
thank
you
so
very
much
for
that,
and
thank
you
for
what
you
do
and
the
North
Highland
assembly
guide.
Church
does
for
this
community.
I
want
to
welcome
tonight.
Also
the
venturing
crew
98
of
the
chattahoochee
Council
Boy
Scouts
of
Columbus.
They
are
out
of
the
Edgewood
Presbyterian
Church
and
they're,
going
to
provide
our
Pledge
of
Allegiance.
So
we're
going
to
spend
come
on
forward
at
sea.
Asha
is
going
to
provide
you
with
a
microphone
and
as
they
prepare
to
lead
us
in
the
Pledge
of
Allegiance.
If
you
all
would
please
stand.
D
F
B
G
B
K
B
E
B
L
Don't
think
y'all
want
to
hear
that
tonight.
What
I
want
to
do
is
share
with
you.
The
items
that
I
think
are
germane
to
your
budget
deliberations,
particularly
as
they
apply
to
the
recorders
court
and
changes
that
have
it's
undergone
over
the
last
several
months
and
continues
to
see
in
the
way
of
changes.
L
L
The
recorders
court
hears
traffic,
criminal
and
city
ordinance
cases
made
by
the
Columbus
Police
Department
special
enforcement's
Metro
Narcotics
Task
Force
Fire
Department
Georgia
State
Patrol
in
the
Columbus
State
University
Police
Department.
They
also
hear
any
disputed
cases
that
come
out
of
the
Metro
parking
of
police
function,
the
courts,
functional
responsibility
is
to
set
bail
issue,
warrants,
collect
fines
and
bonds.
Here
in
determinate,
probate,
probable
cause
exists
for
state
and
Superior
Court
offenses,
and
they
also
adjudicate
city
ordinances
and
certain
state
ordinances.
That's
what
they
do.
L
L
L
The
city
charter
places
the
governance
of
recorders
court
to
the
City
Council,
because
you
all
have
been
overseeing
that
to
those
last
several
years:
ongoing
review,
guidance
and
management
of
the
budgets
and
other
performance.
Metrics
fine
appointed
steering
committee
of
council
and
members
is
necessary
for
success,
and
that's
one
of
the
things
that
we
recommend
is
that
from
your
group,
that
you
point
three
or
four
of
you
that
have
an
interest
in
recorders
court
to
serve
as
the
steering
committee
and
would
meet
with
them.
L
Probably
you
on
a
monthly,
a
quarterly
basis
to
review
their
metrics,
their
budgetary
performance
and
the
other
issues
that
affect
the
court.
We
think
that
would
be
beneficial
to
both
you
and
to
the
court.
The
clerk
of
court
is
responsible
for
the
tracking
and
reporting
of
the
metrics
to
the
City
Council.
Of
course,
the
chief
judge
is
also
a
critical
part
of
that
Commission
in
management
and
supervision.
L
The
daily
operations
of
the
court
are
really
managed
by
the
clerk
of
the
court
and,
as
you
know,
you
appointed
an
interim
clerk
here
several
months
ago.
Mr.
Larry
love,
and
he
has
been
fulfilling
that
role
for
you
to
that
time
and,
of
course,
that
position
is
also
appointed
by
City
Council.
The
clerk
is
assisted
by
two
supervisors,
one
that
directs
the
financial
operations
and
the
others
over
the
judicial
or
docket
operations.
L
Revenues
current
and
forecasted
week
we
look
at
the
financial
statements
for
about
the
past
ten
and
two-thirds
years
that
we
had
off
the
Advantage
system
that
we
felt
were
very
reliable
and
he
trusted
they
were
part
of
our
coffers
each
year,
and
what
we
found
is
that
the
budget
was
over.
The
department
was
over
budget
on
revenues
by
two
and
a
half
million
dollars
over
that
ten
half
year
period
for
the
remainder
of
this
year.
L
However,
revenues
are
protected
to
be
under
budget
by
about
400,000
for
a
total
revenue
of
3.1
million
revenue
Peaks
several
years
ago
at
about
4.4
million,
and
it
has
dropped
a
little
bit
from
time
to
time,
but
this
year
it's
down
a
bit
more
and
I'm,
going
to
try
to
address
a
few
of
those
things.
I'm
gonna
cover
up
one
item
all
items
affecting
the
downward
trend
in
revenue
for
this
year.
L
L
It
was
proposed
of
revenue,
enhancement,
opportunities,
I
think
we
always
should
look
at
those
efforts
should
be
made
to
encourage
payments,
the
bonds
prior
to
the
date
of
court
appearance.
Now
we
certainly
recognize
that
everyone
entitled
to
their
day
in
court.
We
would
not
want
to
take
that
opportunity
or
privilege
away
from
anyone,
but
many
people
really
have
no
intention
of
contesting
their
case.
L
They
go
sit
in
the
in
the
courtroom
for
one
to
several
hours
awaiting
their
names,
because
then
they
stand
up
and
plead
guilty
and
they're
fined
and
they
don't
pay
their
fine,
those
people
we
want
to
give
them
the
opportunity,
basically
skip
court
and
go
ahead
and
pay
it
part
of
the
way
we
can
do
that
is.
We
have
updated
the
website,
you'll
see
more
of
that
next
time,
with
a
fine
calculator
built
into
it.
L
So
person
can
go
to
our
website
now
and
they
will
get
there
and
they
can
actually
click
on
that
and
it
will
tell
them
exactly
what
their
fine
is
at
this
time
they
can
go
ahead
and
bail
in
payments.
We
have
investigated
I
set
in
place
by
any
means
the
opportunity
for
online
payments
in
particularly
with
the
younger
generation
city
manager.
Hughley,
has
told
us
about
the
Millennials
he's,
given
us
some
education
on
that
and
many
of
those
people
really
they're
not
into
writing
cheques.
They
like
to
pay
well
there.
L
They
have
a
kind
of
checking
account,
but
they
like
to
pay
with
their
phone
or
with
other
electronic
devices
online.
So
we
want
to
have
that
more
fully
explored.
We
have
done
some
investigative
work
on
it,
but
of
course
that's
up
the
ultimate
purview
of
the
finance
director
and
the
city
manager
to
approve
any
any
changes
like
that.
So
we
have
not
done
that,
but
we
have
found
some
alternatives
that
we
believe
could
work
for
them
very
well.
That
would
also
increase
the
revenue
and
bring
it
in
faster.
L
We've
also
recommended
that
they
utilize
the
drive-through
payment.
Linda
l
may
recall
that
the
payment
window
was
closed
for
over
five
years.
It
malfunctions
some
years
back
and
they
decide
just
to
stop
using
it.
That
is
not
a
good
thing,
because
we
have
a
very
limited
number
of
parking
spaces
that
recorders
court
currently
there's
47
spaces
in
the
lot.
15
of
those
are
basically
reserved
for
employees
and
in
fact,
the
employees
there's
a
couple
that
use
the
handicapped
spaces
and
there's
only
two
handicapped
spaces
in
that
parking
lot.
L
So
we're
going
to
recommend
as
part
of
our
overall
report,
you
have
the
full
report
before
you
in
hardcopy
we're
going
to
recommend
that
that
be
increased
by
two
additional
spaces.
So
the
two
that
normally
would
be
available
for
the
public,
because
we've
recently
had
some
people
that
it
encountered
some
serious
difficulties
getting
into
the
court,
and
one
of
them
was
an
attorney
that
just
last
week
took
a
fall
out
there
as
he
was
trying
to
get
in
so
he's
cautioned
us
about
how
far
he
had
to
walk.
L
So
it's
like
to
see
that
changed
a
little
bit
and
we
think
that
would
help
as
well.
Oh,
we
want
to
have
better
utilization
of
the
probation
system
and,
as
I
just
said
a
few
moments
ago,
we're
getting
that
probation
back
on
track.
Basically,
when
you
are
have
it,
when
you
receive
an
offense
and
get
a
citation,
whether
you
go
to
court
or
you
pay
it
ahead
of
time,
you
either
pay
the
fine
or
you're.
L
L
So
don't
let
that
upset
you
about
the
indigent
people,
because
they're
well
taken
care
of
and
with
all
the
public
defenders
that
you
all
have
funded
in
placed
over
there
they're
doing
an
excellent
job
of
representing
those
people
and
making
sure
that
they
qualify
for
the
their
services
financially
and
if
they
do,
they,
representatives,
probably
as
well
as
any
attorney
in
town,
would
do
so.
They're
well
protected.
L
If
they
go
beyond
that
period
of
time
and
they
have
to
pay
the
probation
fee,
which
is
$50
per
month
until
they
complete
the
payment
of
their
fines.
But
that
is
the
way
to
collect
the
money.
If
you
just
continue
the
case
and
tell
them
to
come
back,
we've
tried
that
and
that's
not
working
very
well.
We
had
some
15
cases
in
a
survey
that
we
looked
at.
Only
seven
on
came
back
and
of
those
four
paid
to
find
three
did
not
they
still
didn't
the
money
and
the
rest.
L
I'll
never
came
back
or
paid
the
fine,
so
you
need
to
utilize
the
probation
services.
That's
what
will
bring
the
revenue
back
up.
We
know
it's
going
to
be
down
because
with
more
public
defenders
and
we've
changed
some
judges
around
it's
it's
imperative
that
we
we
do
collect
the
fines
that
are
levied
and
that
are
available
to
be
collected.
L
So
we've
also
recommended
some
enhanced
cash
management
procedures
and
with
that,
what
we
really
want
to
do
is
we
want
to
make
sure
that
the
monies
are
taken
in
they're
deposited
on
a
daily
basis
if
they
get
to
the
bank
and
into
the
account
so
that
they
can
be
utilized
because
that
money
goes
into
the
general
funding.
You
all
know
how
important
the
general
fund
is,
and
you
have
a
lot
of
demands
on
it,
so
we
certainly
want
those
things
to
be
taken
care
of
the
financial
statements
in
terms
of
budget.
L
We
looked
for
that
again
for
that
ten
and
two-thirds
year
period
that
we
had
available,
and
we
found
that
during
that
time
the
budget
was
of
the
department
was
under
budget
on
expenses
by
117
thousand
nine
hundred
twenty-six
dollars.
Now
you
might
say:
well,
then,
why
didn't
they
spend
some
of
that
money
and
get
the
place
cleaned
up
sooner
or
get
the
carpets
clean?
Some
of
the
things
they
come
back
to
counsel
with
mr.
loaves
had
to
ask
for
funding
186
thousand
384.
L
That
was
in
the
area
of
salaries
and
benefits,
and
they
can't
really
take
those
salary
savings
and
apply
it
to
operations
in
a
department
such
as
this,
they
were
actually
sixty.
Eight
thousand
four
fifty
eight
over
budget
on
operational,
so
there
were
some
expenses
that
they
just
couldn't
the
items
they
just
couldn't
fit
into
the
expense
budget
items
that
we
did
not
locate
in
the
fiscal
year
2018
budget
that
will
need
to
be
addressed
if
it
needs
to
be
corporate
in
seat
cleaning
expenses,
budget
on
a
periodic
basis,
probably
twice
a
year.
L
Those
things
have
not
been
cleaned
in
a
number
of
years
and
they
were
pretty
raunchy
and
I.
Think
the
counselors
that
came
over
and
looked
at
them
councillor,
Garrett
and
who
else
came
counselor
pew
and
Pro
Tem?
They
came
over
and
they
saw
some
things
that
really
kind
of
upsetting
to
them,
and
we
want
to
make
sure
that
the
place
is
neat
and
clean
and
and
it's
in
the
best
repair
can.
Another
thing
we
found
was
that
there
were
there's,
probably
a
need
phone
going,
repairs
and
maintenance.
We
found
a
lot
of
them.
L
Neglected
items,
tore
handles
and
knobs
and
lock
sets
that
were
broken,
those
kind
of
things
and
they
had
to
get
special
appropriation
or
assistance
on
the
financing
prepare
those.
But
it
needs
to
be
that
I
know.
Last
week
we
all
had
some
discussion
about
where
the
budget
money
was
for
the
conflict,
attorneys
and
I'm.
Not
here,
to
argue
that
point
I
will
say
this
I
think
you're
going
to
have
to
have
more
than
$16,000
next
year
for
conflict
attorneys
at
the
quarters.
Court.
L
The
city
collects
about
four
point:
seven
million
dollars
a
year
in
fines
and
forfeitures
among
all
of
the
courts
that
collect
that
over
about
4.1
million
of
that
has
been
coming
from
the
recorders
court
and
the
other
three
or
four
or
five
hundred
thousand
dollars
is
spread
over
a
number
of
other
courts,
primarily
the
state
court,
the
municipal
court
a
little
bit
from
the
Superior
Court
and
a
little
bit
from
the
juvenile
courts.
So
you
need
to
keep
in
mind
that
those
things
are
important.
L
We
got
to
keep
working
on
that,
but
they're
finding
what
they
have
is.
Even
though
we
have
multiple
public
defenders
when
the
public
defender
is
over
there
and
they
come
in
with
a
group
of
people
that
are
charged
and
it's
the
same
crime
that
one
public
defender
is
conflict
in,
can
only
represent
one
of
those
persons,
because
what
happens
is
if
they
try
to
represent
two
or
three
of
them
as
soon
as
one
turns
on
it.
L
Since
my
buddy
did
that
I
didn't
really
break
in
there
and
steal
those
at
box
of
cigars
down
at
7-eleven,
then
that
attorney
is
conflict
and
you
go
out
to
prop
the
case
or
dismiss
it.
So
you
have
to
have
those
and
we
try
to
identify
those
ahead
of
time
so
that
they
can
arrange
for
the
attorneys
that
they
have
on
the
docket
that
on
their
listing
call
in
so
I
think
that
may
be
an
issue
that
has
to
be
addressed
for
the
end
of
the
year.
L
There's
also
a
need
for
more
management
focus
of
particular
on
contractual
services.
Mr.
love
has
been
working
in
that
area,
diligently
and
I
think
he
has
found,
maybe
an
opportunity
to
reduce
the
budget
of,
but
in
that
area.
If
you
all
will
approve
some
changes
that
he'd
like
to
make,
that
really
concludes
my
presentation
for
today.
I
wanted
you
to
know
where
it
said
financially
again.
I
think
we're
going
to
get
the
revenue
coming
in
at
about
three
three
point:
1
million
for
next
year,
which
is
I,
think
pretty
consistent
with
the
budget.
L
L
M
L
Okay,
I'm
going
to
go
ahead
and
tell
you
what's
in
the
report,
because
I
know
you
haven't
had
an
opportunity
to
read
it.
Mr.
love
examined
the
two
courtrooms
down
there
and
you
know
he
came
to
you
about
a
month
or
so
ago
and
he
had
a
pretty
ambitious
program
of
cutting
a
door
through
there
and
setting
up
some
pavement
windows
down
that
hall.
That
was
costing
more
than
probably
what
we
thought
was
was
a
good
idea
for
a
long
term.
Particularly
this
function
ends
up
being
an
adjust
Criminal
Justice
Center.
L
If
we
ever
get
one
bill
completely,
will
next
couple
years.
I
know
that's
one
of
the
discussion
items,
but
what
he
has
been
able
to
do
and
reduce
that
cost
tremendously
is
to
switch
the
courtrooms.
There's
only
two
seats
difference
in
the
seating
between
one
courtroom
and
the
other.
If
you
move
the
recorders
court
over
to
the
other
courtroom,
then
they
can
come
right
out
the
door
and
go
to
a
pavement
one
they're
in
the
hallway
on
the
way
out.
L
It
would
necessitate
basically
putting
two
doors
in
there
one
to
keep
them
from
going
the
wrong
way
back
towards
the
jail.
Secondly,
it
would
it
would
have
an
electronic
lock
on
the
other
one
so
that
when
the
people
come
out
that
go
by
the
pavement
window
or
by
the
docket
window,
if
they
have
a
license
suspended
or
something
like
that
that
they
need
to
deal
with,
then
they
would
be
released
and
they
go
right
out
the
front
door.
They
would
not
ever
pass
through
that
area.
That
concerns
you
may
approach
in.
N
L
Courtroom
over
there
on
the
other
side
that
we'd
be
flipping
over
the
environmental
court.
Environmental
Court
is
a
small
Court.
It
has
four
sessions
per
month.
You
know
Wednesdays
out
of
the
month.
They
have
a
morning
in
an
afternoon
session,
there's
not
nearly
as
many
cases
held
there
as
the
art
and
recorders
court,
and
it
will
enable
that
those
people
to
go
through
there
and
then
they
can
come
out
and
come
to
the
standard
payment
wound
outside
a
clearly
fair,
find
and
need
to
make
a
payment.
L
The
other
things
held
over
there
is
the
preliminary
hearings,
basically
for
the
more
serious
offenses
that
have
to
be
be
handled
in
where
the
Superior
Court
of
the
State
Court
is
need
to
be
come
over
in
here
and
do
those
initial
hearings,
and
those
can
easily
be
done
in
that
because
most
of
those
people
are
going
to
be
coming
out
of
the
jail
and
probably
would
be
back
there
in
the
holding
area
awaiting
their
time
in
court.
So
we
believe
that
is
a
very
viable
solution.
L
It
will
probably
only
cost
a
few
thousand
dollars
to
fix
the
windows
and
the
doors
that
are
needed
for
that,
and
that
would
be
a
reasonable
expenditure
in
order
to
preserve
the
safety
and
and
really,
frankly,
a
lot
of
what
we've
recommended
is
risk
avoidance.
We
want
to
mitigate
risk
wherever
we
can
in
our
recommendations
in
that
report.
If
you
read
through
it,
you'll
see
that
it
does.
L
Is
that
because
we
don't
want
your
daughter
going
back
there,
your
16
year
old
son,
passing
through
that
area
because
they're
inside
the
jail
line-
and
you
know,
there's
a
lot
of
bad
things
that
can
happen
if
one
deputy
gets
called
away
from
their
duty
station,
and
sometimes
that
might
happen.
So
we
want
to
make
sure
that
those
things
are
covered.
Any
other
questions.
Yes,.
O
Think
we
may
have
talked
about
this.
One
I've
met
with
that.
We
don't
report
score
for
the
tax
intercept
program
right
I.
Remember
when
Judge
Solinsky
brought
that
before
I
got
like
it.
That
was
during
my
budget
review
meetings.
We
had
something
like
181
million
in
fines.
I
had
not
been
collected.
Are
we
gonna
be
able
to
do
that
in
the
future,
with
the
socials
and
then
for
the
ones?
We
don't
have
a
social,
so
we
can't
submit
them
to
the
Taxi
reset
program.
Is
there.
I
L
But
we
actually
think
that
that
can
be
worked
a
column.
A
couple
of
things
have
happened
or
happening
as
right
along
now.
One
of
the
things
that
we
had
to
do
is
in
response
to
some
of
the
litigation
against
the
court
and
its
officers,
and
you
all
was
that
we
had
to
give
a
statement
at
the
end
of
that
time
of
all
their
offenses
what
they
were
charged
with
and
that
sort
of
thing
that
basically
listed
their
charges.
It's
the
warrants
fault.
L
So
what
has
to
be
done
and
they've
been
having
to
do
a
lot
of
that
manually,
while
the
IT
department
developed
a
program
to
generate
it
as
of
last
week,
they
got
the
program
finished,
it's
been
been
tested
and
it
started.
Working
they've
had
a
few
little
glitches,
but
that's
pretty
well
cleared
out,
so
that
will
help
us
in
a
couple
of
areas.
One
those
people
were
really
doing
double
work,
having
to
write
all
those
things
out
over
in
the
docket
area.
L
That's
just
a
lot
of
work
and
really
impaired
their
ability
to
to
work
on
some
other
things.
So
now
that
that's
coming
online-
and
that
will
be
automated-
that
will
free
up
some
personnel
over
there
that
they
can,
they
can
begin
researching
and
pulling
these
Social
Security
numbers
is.
We
do
have
access
to
some
systems,
I
believe
through
the
police
department.
They
can
look
people
up
in
buying
social
security
numbers.
L
So
if
we
can
work
out
a
cooperative
effort
there,
we
should
be
able
to
get
those
and
maybe
harvest
that
I
understand,
there's
about
a
half
million
dollars.
That's
sitting
out
in
that
category.
That's
a
whole
lot
of
money,
folks
that
could
pay
for
all
the
things
y'all
had
to
vote
down
today.
That
you'd
like
to
have
done
I'm.
Sure,
I.
L
Think
something
else
that
needs
to
be
said
too
is
the
G.
Cic
reporting
was
behind
by
over
two
years,
two
and
a
half
years
in
arrears.
Currently
we
only
had
one
G
CIC
TAC
officer
that
was
certified
to
put
that
data
into
that
system.
That's
one
of
the
things
we
readily
identified.
We
got
another
person
identified
that
could
be
trained
to
do
it.
She
has
been
trained
and
has
been
become
certified
and
they're
both
working
on
that
backlog.
L
It's
not
completely
gone
yet,
but
they
are
working
it
down
pretty
quickly
and
what
they
thought
they
needed.
Two
temporary
employees
for
six
months
to
a
year.
They
won't
need
it.
These
people
should
be
able
to
finish
in
the
next
two
or
three
months
and
that
will
be
caught
up.
Another
thing
that
we
found
with
the
changeover
in
personnel,
the
judges
and
so
forth,
and
the
office
of
the
financial
section
supervisor
that
died
last
fall.
L
Is
that
there's
an
annual
report,
that's
required
by
the
administrative
office
of
the
courts,
and
we
found
that
it
was
delinquent.
It
was
due
in
at
the
end
of
the
year
and
it
had
not
been
submitted,
I'm
pleased
to
report
that
it
was
submitted
this
past
week,
so
we
work
with
them
and
help
them
get
that
up
in
several
other
people
down
there
worked
on
that
and
got
it
in
so
we're
very
pleased
of
the
progress
that's
been
made.
L
There's
been
a
tremendous
amount
of
cleanup
of
the
area
replacing
some
of
the
broken
chairs
and
furniture
just
getting
junk
and
things
cleaned
out.
It
looks
a
lot
different
once
we
get
through
out
the
courtroom
switched
I
believe
that
scheduled
for
June,
the
fifth,
which
is
a
Monday
once
that's
done,
and
we
can
get
those
other
pavement
stations
installed
and
gets
place
patched
up
and
painted
I
think
you'll
really
see
a
lot
of
difference.
L
I
think
you'll
see
a
place
that
you're
very
proud
of,
but
there's
just
there's
been
a
lot
of
accumulated
neglect
in
Frankie's
because
they
didn't
have
the
money
to
do
it.
It's
not
that
people
weren't
aware
of
it.
So
we're
glad
that
you
all
saw
fit
to
appropriate
some
funds
and
go
down
and
take
a
look
at
it
and
do
that
for
us.
So
any
other
questions
I'll
be
happy
to
answer.
If
you
happy
looks.
B
B
E
E
R
Good
afternoon,
mayor
and
council,
with
regard
to
the
recorders
court
judge,
that
is,
the
senior
recorders
court
judge
there
in
recorders
court.
Currently
there
you
have
an
interim
part-time
senior
judge
and
you
have
an
opportunity
to
continue
that
as
is
or
I
know
that
you
are
entertaining
the
option
of
certain
that
position
from
time.
So
on
the
city
manager's
agenda,
as
he
has
mentioned,
there
are
two
resolutions.
One
of
the
resolutions
is
for
you
to
consider
or
have
the
opportunity
to
serve
as
senior
recorders.
Court
judge
position
with
a
firm
time
are
judged.
R
Also
in
that
resolution
is
a
recommended
salary
range
for
that
position.
The
salary
range
came
from
a
compensation
study
that
was
done
in
that
range
was
a
minimum
of
85,000
to
a
maximum
of
153,000.
For
a
long
time
judge.
The
internal
auditor
has
already
alluded
to
the
makeup
of
the
recorders
court
judge
staff.
There
is
currently
the
senior
part
time
recorders,
court,
judge
and
three
interim
excuse
me
part
time:
Pro
Tem
judges,
so
the
recommendation
to
Council.
R
Should
it
decide
to
change
the
makeup
of
the
judge
ship?
There
would
be
a
full
time.
Senior
recorders
court
judge
based
on
the
salary
range
that
I've
mentioned.
So
that's
the
resolution
that
that's
before
you,
the
second
position
there
at
recorders
court
is
the
clerk
or
the
chief
clerk
of
recorders
court.
Currently,
as
the
interim
excuse
me,
the
internal
auditor
mentioned
mr.
Larry.
Love
is
filling
the
interim
clerk
of
recorders
court
position.
You
could
allow
things
to
remain
as
is,
and
take
no
action.
There
is
a
recommendation
in
the
resolution.
R
That's
provided,
however,
that
the
court
coordinator
that's
there
now
that
that
position
be
eliminated
and
that
you
employ
a
full-time
recorders.
Excuse
me
a
full-time
clerk
of
recorders
court.
There
is
no
budget
for
the
chief
clerk
in
recorders
court.
However,
that
position
is
established
by
ordinance
and
that's
referred
to
in
your
resolution
there.
So
the
proposal
or
recommendation
in
the
resolution
is
to
delete
the
court
coordinator
position
and
feel
the
or
the
ordinance
as
the
ordinance
directs
the
ordinance
for
a
chief
recorders
court.
So
those
are
the
options
thee
in
deleting
the
court
coordinator
position.
B
S
Q
It's
not
in
the
budget
and
that's
why
it
was
critical
to
bring
this
before
you
now
that
if
it's
state
of
course,
and
it
doesn't
need
to
be
budgeted.
But
if
you
want
to
change
it,
then
we
need
to
appropriate
that
in
the
budget
and
it
would
have
some
impact
on
fund
balance
and
we
can
tell
you
I'll,
have
them
to
go
ahead
and
calculate
what
the
impact
will
be.
But
we
just
needed
to
know
whether
state
of
course
would
go
with
this
new
direction
and.
B
There
was
and
I
think,
maybe
to
have
Pam
or
Angelica
whoever's,
the
appropriate
individual.
There
has
been
some
discussion
about.
We
could
restructure
some
of
the
judges
because
I
think
there's
three
or
four
part-time
judges
over
there.
In
addition,
so
if
you
did
a
full-time
and
two
part
times,
you
know
you
might
be
able
to
come
out,
the
math
might.
S
S
Q
Q
S
Can
just
give
you
one
person's
opinion
that
is
I
would
like
to
see
the
full
time.
I
think
the
court
would
operate
better,
we've
been
making
some
changes
and
everybody
that's
contingent
upon
us
being
able
to
make
it
work
financially.
I,
don't
like
taking
salaries
out
of
5,000
credits.
I,
don't
like
create,
especially
creating
a
new
position
taking
that
out
of
fund
balance,
because
not
only
we're
taking
that
this
year,
but
we've
got
no
foreseeable
funding
mechanism
for
next
year
year
after
so
well,.
Q
B
Probably
because
of
some
of
the
you
know,
prolonged
absences,
some
of
the
judges
due
to
health
surgery,
reasons
and
things
of
that
nature
and
just
not
having
a
set
structure.
And
so
we
would
like
to
think
obviously-
and
it's
almost
John,
where
you
chose
it-
happen
million
decrease
with
the
decreasing
and
reporter
sport.
S
B
L
L
In
the
same
thing,
it
works
the
same
way
with
the
probation.
The
problem
is
that
when
you
start
dropping
your
cases
that
going
into
the
probation
system,
the
pipeline
begins
to
empty
out.
It's
like
water
does
in
the
faucet
and
going
down
the
pipe,
and
once
it
gets
empty,
it
takes
a
while
to
refill
and
replenish
the
pipeline
and
get
it
back
up
to
where
the
money
starts
coming.
But
that's
what
we're
now
seeing
is
happening
in
the
month
of
May
that
that
number
has
more
than
tripled.
L
It
will
probably
quadruple
by
the
end
of
the
month
of
what's
going
back
into
that
pipeline.
It
had
dropped
from
you
know
over
a
hundred
cases
a
month,
one
hundred
and
fifty
or
so
down
to
as
little
as
forty
two
on
average
for
the
last
three
months
and
I
mean
that
basically
says
we're
really
not
putting
them
on
probation,
we're
getting
doing
continuances
or
we
dismissing
cases
there's
a
lot
of
other
dispositions,
and
when
you
have
that
happening,
your
probation
pipeline
goes
away,
but
when
the
probation
pipeline
is
working,
it
supplies
about
one.
L
M
L
I
think
that
that's
it
now
I
think
councillor
Henderson
said
you
know.
Maybe
they
could
do
with
two
part-time
judges.
Someone
did
on
the
council
and
you
probably
could
do
that,
but
you
probably
still
need
to
have
a
judge,
that's
kind
of
an
on
call,
because
there
are
times
when
a
judge
takes
a
vacation
without
sick,
keep
in
mind.
Recorders
court
run
six
days
a
week
and
even
they
have
to
come
in
a
lot
of
times
on
holidays
particular.
L
It
happened
recently
in
Phoenix
City,
where
they
didn't
get
one
in,
and
it
was
somebody
really
a
bad
guy
that
he
walked
away
scot-free
after
committing
several
crimes
and
being
in
a
police
chase
that
involved
a
wreck
and
because
they
didn't
get
him
before
the
judge
in
time.
He
walked
off,
so
we
don't
want
that
sort
of
thing
happening.
Who
warned
me?
You
know
we
can't
tell
judges
how
much
define
people
and
we
certainly
don't
intend
to
get
into
that
business.
L
We're
not
there
to
supervise
or
evaluate
judges,
so
judges
do
different
things
depending
on
they
have
some
flexibility
and
latitude
in
in
their
fines.
So
you
know
you've
got
to
make
sure
that
when
you
have
the
opportunity
for
revenue
that
you're
producing
it,
so
you
don't
want
to
be
without
a
judge
and
not
have
enough
backups
to
is
probably
adequate
if
they're,
because
they'll
be
working,
the
part-time
things
are
probably
the
Saturday
courts
and
the
environmental,
and
they
could
then
fill
you
in
and
make
extra
money
when
they
when
they
fill
in.
L
Q
Q
U
Based
on
the
salary
range
that
that
was
provided
and
the
estimated
annual
impact
I
said,
I
was
provided
by
the
HR
director
on
the
Cisco
eighteen
year.
Dollar
value
would
be
an
additional
eighty,
seven
thousand
three
hundred
dollars.
That's
got
a
starting
salary
of
one
hundred
eighteen
thousand,
eight
hundred
and
forty
six
dollars
the
fund
balance
impact
would
be
point
to
one
day
and.
U
V
I
want
to
really
try
to
understand
that
whether
I
call
administration
or
the
internal
law
or
whatever,
to
have
a
better
conversation
on
it
I.
Just
that
concerns
me
a
little
bit.
You
know
after
we've
made
a
lot
of
changes
to
to.
You
know
pretty
much
upgrade
the
court
there.
It
does
kind
of
raise
that
flag
with
me.
Q
Well,
we're
certainly,
of
course,
we've
got
a
work
session
next
Tuesday
on
March
30th.
It's
a
consent
agenda,
wart
session
agenda.
We
can
discuss
whatever
you'd
like
to
discuss
it
in,
but
but
to
move
the
budget
forward.
We
either
going
to
stay
the
course
or
we
going
to
go
this
new
direction
and
we'll
need
to
know
that
to
finalize
and
move
the
budget
process
rule-
and
that
is
your.
Q
The
resolution
that
I
have
yes
tonight
and,
of
course
we
can
delay
it.
It
was
an
add-on
because
we
realized
the
urgency
of
the
budget
process
and
advertising
the
newspaper
and
so
forth
so
online,
and
so
we
needed
some
direction
and
that's
why
we
are
bringing
it
tonight.
Thank
you.
Thank
you.
Man
all.
U
Q
And
certainly
we're
not
attempting
to
set
the
salary,
that's
what
that's
for
you
to
do
and
and
if
it's
lower
than
what
has
been
mentioned,
then
of
course
it's
not
as
much
of
an
impact.
Obviously,
on
the
fund
balance
all
right,
let's
hire
it.
Ben
is
more
of
an
impact.
Yes,
so,
but
that's
that's
going
to
be
that
salary
is
going
to
be
set
by
you.
Q
F
Am
just
thinking
that
you
know
this
is
some
new
information
and,
and
mr.
Edmunds
report
is
new
information
and
it
it
may
be
that
if
we
could,
you
know
digest
it
for
a
couple
of
days
might
could
make
a
better
decision
and
our
finance
people
might
be
able
to
come
back
to
us
so
more
definite
up.
Well,.
Q
Q
U
U
D
U
U
F
M
S
Along
those
lines,
is
there
any
reason
why
we
couldn't
go
ahead
with
them
at
9:00
and
start
advertising
for
the
chief
clerk,
because,
frankly,
whether
we
go
with
a
full-time
or
part-time,
we're
going
to
need
that
position
filled
and
longer
we
wait
and
farther
into
the
fiscal
year.
We're
going
to
be
so
well.
Q
B
Q
F
If
we
could
mr.
city
manager,
if
the
finance
director
could
get
to
us
before
next
Tuesday
the
financial
impact-
and
you
know
where
what
we're
looking
at
not
only
for
the
senior
judge
but
if
there's
any
change
in
those
part-timers
or
whatever,
but
if
we
could
have
that
information
before
we
come
back
next
Tuesday.
That
would
be
helpful.
F
B
W
E
B
That
we
have
some
zonings
too,
so,
let's
just
try
to
move
through
as
quickly
as
we
can
I
appreciate
that
councillor
huff.
It's
always
so
tough
we've
got
everybody
delayed
tonight,
all
right
good,
where
we'll
move
on
then
to
the
minutes
of
the
25th
I'm,
a
prolonged
fifth
and
may
9th
those
have
been
provided
to
you.
There's
a
motion
and
second,
that
the
minutes
be
received.
Any
minutes.
Excuse
me
any
comments
or
edits
hearing
none
all
those
in
favor,
please
say
aye
all
right
and
we'll
turn
it
over
to
the
city
attorney
Thank.

Y
Y
My
name
is
Elizabeth
Melton
and
I'm,
the
founder
of
the
Valley
homesteaders
group
in
January.
Our
spokesperson,
Ryan
Gutowski,
appeared
before
this
council
with
a
simple
request:
lower
the
minimum
threshold
of
the
lot
size
required
to
have
backyard
poultry,
while
also
lowering
the
number
of
birds
allowed.
Y
Y
We
responded
to
the
proposed
legislation
by
requesting
a
few
changes.
1
the
$45
initial
fee
is
too
steep.
The
$10
registration
fee
that
is
required
for
other
animals
does
seem
fair
and
reasonable
to
inspection
of
one's
property
by
special
enforcement
is
intrusive
and
unnecessary.
It
seems
as
if
it
would
stretch
already
limited
personnel
sources.
This
requirement
is
not
required
for
other
pets
and
should
not
be
required
for
chickens.
Three,
the
Department
of
Agriculture
for
the
state
of
Georgia
allows
the
sale
of
eggs
with
possession
of
an
egg
handling
license.
Y
We
request
that
the
city
allows
the
sale
of
eggs
using
the
state
requirements.
This
would
also
allow
others
to
benefit
from
backyard
chickens
without
having
to
get
chickens
of
their
own,
for
we
would
like
the
number
of
chickens
allowed
to
begin
at
6
for
a
quarter
acre
and
scaled
up.
Accordingly,
residents
can
have
six
dogs.
Why
not
six
chickens?
We
feel
that
six
chickens
would
have
far
less
of
an
impact
on
surrounding
neighbors
and
six
of
any
other
animals.
Five,
we
would
like
ducks
to
be
added
to
the
list
of
acceptable
fowl.
Y
Ducks
are
excellent
pets,
good
egg
layers
and
people
who
are
allergic
to
chicken
eggs
can
often
tolerate
duck
eggs,
while
the
exclusion
of
turkeys
and
geese
is
understandable,
they
are
primarily
meat
birds
and
we
support
the
ban
of
animal
slaughter
within
the
city
limits.
Ducks
are
no
more
intrusive
than
chickens,
and
six
having
overly
complex
requirements
will
provide
an
incentive
for
people
to
keep
chickens
while
ignoring
the
requirement.
Y
The
proposed
legislation
has
also
prompted
a
response
from
animal
control.
The
members
of
our
group
have
identified
many
aspects
of
their
presentation
with
which
we
disagree,
but
in
the
interest
of
time
we
are
going
to
address
just
a
few
of
them.
First,
the
issue
of
disease:
yes,
chickens,
can
carry,
diseases
can
all
living
organisms,
but
we
take
issue
with
the
exaggerated
sense
of
danger
with
which
animal
control
characterizes
chickens.
There
have
been
Salmonella
outbreaks
caused
by
pet
turtles.
Ecoli
outbreaks
have
been
caused
by
pet
reptiles,
not
to
mention
flour
and
alfalfa.
Y
Sprouts
toxoplasmosis
is
a
serious
disease
which
is
spread
by
cast,
yet
they
are
not
seeking
to
prevent
cat
ownership.
They
describe.
Avian
influenza
is
a
theoretical
public
health
hazard.
Is
it
wise
to
make
public
policy
decisions
based
upon
theoretical
hazards
or
diseases
found
mainly
in
the
Midwest
chickens,
are
no
different
than
any
other
pet.
The
majority
of
these
disease
risks
can
be
eliminated
by
proper
hand-washing,
which
is
a
good
practice,
no
matter
whether
one
has
touched
a
chicken
handled
money
or
stepped
into
a
public
restroom
Animal
Control
also
addressed
the
issue
of
noise.
Y
Many
people
can
empathize
with
the
frustrations
of
having
to
tolerate
a
barking
dog
in
the
neighborhood
chickens.
Do
not
bark
the
capital
on
occasions
that
they
do
not
bark.
In
fact,
at
night
they
make
no
noise
at
all
unless
the
predator
has
entered
their
coop
dogs.
Bark
at
night
male
cats
make
horrible
screeching
noises
at
night
chickens.
Y
Do
none
of
these
things
when
considering
cost
the
eggs
that
one
typically
buys
from
the
grocery
store
are
not
the
same
eggs
that
one
gets
from
their
own
backyard
chickens
to
purchase,
pastured
eggs
that
are
nutrient-dense
free
of
chemicals
and
humanely
raised
the
cost
would
be
more
in
line
with
four
to
five
dollars
per
dozen.
Also,
according
to
Georgia,
Department
of
Agriculture
eggs
may
be
sold
for
up
to
45
days
after
being
washed
and
packed
either
way.
Y
We
do
not
see
why
the
cost
of
freshly
laid
eggs
is
even
a
concern
of
Animal
Control
in
regards
to
additional
personnel
resources,
eliminate
the
site,
pre
inspections,
and
this
becomes
a
moot
point.
In
fact,
amendment
of
the
current
ordinance
may
decrease
the
workload
of
Animal
Control,
as
they
will
not
have
to
address
cases
of
people
having
chickens
illegally,
but
only
cases
of
chickens
that
are
causing
problems.
Y
Y
Would
like
to
use
as
an
example,
some
new
legislation
that
has
been
enacted
by
the
state
of
Texas
in
the
city
of
Austin
Texas,
the
state
of
Texas
has
enacted
state
bill
1620,
which
states
that
no
municipality
within
the
state
of
Texas
may
prohibit
citizens
from
keeping
chickens.
They
may
play
standards
and
restrictions,
but
they
may
not
prevent
it.
The
state
of
Texas
recognizes
that
the
right
of
an
American
to
produce
their
own
food
is
so
important
that
they
have
protected
this
right
in
their
state
law.
Y
Austin
Texas
as
part
of
their
zero
waste
initiative
as
offered
chicken
keeping
classes
to
their
citizens.
Those
who
take
the
class
and
begin
keeping
chickens
free
will
receive
a
$75
check
from
the
city.
Austin
is
not
charging
its
citizens
of
fee
for
the
privilege
of
keeping
chickens,
it
is
paying
their
citizens
to
do
so,
and
recognition
of
the
benefits
that
chickens
offer
to
a
community
I
know
that
Columbus
has
completed
many
projects
to
make
itself
an
attractive
and
progressive
City,
and
some
of
these
projects
have
been
very
expensive.
Y
Y
The
fact
of
the
matter
is
people
in
Columbus
are
keeping
chickens,
lots
of
people.
You
could
approach
this
widespread
non-compliance
by
enacting
some
draconian
measures
to
crack
down
upon
these
illegal
chicken
keepers,
but
is
that
the
kind
of
relationship
that
you
want
to
have
with
your
constituents,
especially
when
some
of
us
have
come
before
you
so
respectfully
asking
for
your
help
and
who
would
enforce
a
crackdown
on
chicken
keeping
animal
control,
of
course,
and
they
would
probably
need
additional
resources
to
do
so.
Y
What
we
are
asking
for
now
is
what
we
originally
asked
for
in
our
presentation
to
you
make
a
simple
change
to
the
current
ordinance
that
reduces
the
amount
of
property
required
to
own
chickens
from
two
acres
to
that
of
an
average
city
lot.
The
current
ordinance
already
contains
measures
to
protect
others
from
any
harm
that
may
be
caused
by
an
irresponsible
owner.
A
best-case
scenario
would
be
to
make
this
simple
change,
but
if
additional
measures
must
be
implemented,
we
ask
that
those
measures
be
no
more
cumbersome
than
those
required
to
own
any
other
pet.
Y
In
closing,
I
would
like
to
say:
I
often
see
the
success
of
our
city.
Measured
in
numbers
such
as
the
amount
of
revenue
collected
tourist
dollars
attracted
many
spent
on
various
projects
and
crime
statistics.
To
me,
it
seems
that
the
greatest
measure
of
a
community
success
is
the
quality
of
life
that
is
enjoyed
by
its
citizens.
This
is
something
that
cannot
be
measured
in
numbers,
but
is
evident
in
the
ability
of
the
citizens
to
do
those
things
which
provide
them
with
happiness,
provided
that
they
do
not
do
those
things
at
the
expense
of
others.
Y
I
hope
that
the
arguments
that
we
have
put
forth
here
tonight
are
compelling
enough
to
convince
you
make
chicken
keeping
within
the
city
limits
is
one
of
those
things
and
enacting.
The
changes
that
we
have
asked
for
in
this
ordinance
is
a
vote
for
success
for
our
city.
Now.
Thank
you
for
your
time.
Well,.
B
Thank
you
very
much,
and
we
very
much
appreciate
your
passion.
Council
keeps
an
open
ear
in
mind
to
all
of
these
things,
we're
just
trying
to
balance
all
the
constituents
concerns
as
you
know,
so
thank
you
and
continue
to
send
us
information.
Okay,
thank
you
and
there's
no
further
questions
at
this
time.
We
appreciate
your
time
this
evening,
all
right.
J

Let's
go
steamed.
Eggs
is
an
organization
that
is
educationally
based
for
youth
in
our
community.
I
am
the
founder
of
let's
grow
steamed
eggs,
as
well
as
the
CEO
and
president
and
I
am
happy
to
be
here
today
with
a
board
member
Lionel
Haynes.
Our
organization,
which
was
actually
started
in
2011
as
part
of
the
community.
J
Fair,
has
had
numerous
successes
and
I'll
start
with
2015,
so
2015
once
I
actually
acquired
the
organization
from
the
Columbus
Civic
Center
I
started
by
just
doing
some
grassroots
work
in
the
community,
with
local
YMCA
churches
and
through
community
events
working
with
students
to
expose
them
and
allow
them
the
opportunity
to
have
steam
experiences.
Seen
being
science,
technology,
engineering,
arts
and
math
from
2015
I
partnered
with
two
longtime
friends,
leshan
Ferguson
and
Tasha
singleton
leshan
is
an
educator
out
of
Horner,
Robyn
and
Tasha.
Singleton
is
here
locally
and
we
actually
formalized
the
platform.
J
2016
we
had
a
wonderful
opportunity
to
co-host,
stimulate
with
FIRST
robotics
and
Columbus
makes
it
our
role
in
that
event
was
to
organize
and
orchestrate
the
youth
Career
Expo.
We
galvanized
over
65
different
organizations
to
come
out
and
speak
to
over
2,000
youth
about
careers
and
how
they
can
align
themselves
or
their
talents
and
their
gift
with
future
career
paths,
as
well
as
entrepreneurial
opportunity.
E
J
Event
was
a
huge
success
and
we
knew
that
we
were
onto
something
we
also
host
the
CEMEX
competition,
which
is
a
yearly
event,
and
in
that
same
year
we
had
over
900
students
that
participated
in
the
Steam
X
competition.
Now
this
is
not
an
event,
that's
required
by
the
school
district.
However,
we
do
have
support
from
Muskogee
County,
School
District
and
this
year
we're
pleased
to
announce
that
Russell
County,
School
District
has
come
on
board.
In
that
event,
you
have
over
900
students
that
go
to
our
website.
They
register
for
free.
J
They
pick
a
project,
they
complete
the
project
they
bring
it
in
and
we
put
it
on
display
for
the
community
to
come
out
and
judge,
and
then
we
award
prizes
2016
was
a
great
year
for
us.
However,
we
recognized
that
we
wanted
to
work
in
closer
proximity
with
those
that
we
chose
to
serve,
which
is
you,
and
so
we
are
pleased
to
announce
that
2017.
We
are
reintroducing
an
event
that
is
wholesome
and
specifically
geared
to
you.
We
are
introducing
the
River
City
soapbox,
derby,
soapbox
derby
is
not
a
new
event
for
our
community.
J
However,
it
is
an
event
that
we
believe
we
can
add
a
steam
X
twist
to
we've
had
great
success.
Since
we've
kicked
off
Spring
Break,
we
served
over
150
youth
in
the
community
by
partnering,
with
Columbus
parks
and
recs
Columbus,
Tech,
Boy,
Scouts
and
various
other
organizations.
We
go
into
the
parks
and
recs
facilities.
We
provide
all
of
the
materials
all
the
cars
and
the
children
are
registered
on
our
website
and
we
work
with
them
to
build
the
cars.
J
We
do
that
because
we
recognize
that
$800
is
quite
a
bit
of
investment
for
parents
to
make
for
new
activities.
However,
parents
have
come
on
board
wholeheartedly
to
participate
to
work
with
their
youth
to
help
us
build
these
cars,
and
we
are
looking
forward
to
a
great
soapbox
derby,
July
29th
on
17th
Street.
B
J
That
being
said,
we
just
wanted
to
come
here
today
to
share
that
with
the
community
with
the
council
and
ask
for
your
support.
We
are
doing
this
totally
through
community
support
and
some
of
our
sponsors
I
would,
you
know,
hate
not
to
mention
the
sponsors
that
are
helping
us
with
this
Liberty
utilities.
Pete
app,
Columbus
Tech
found
some
City
classic
are
just
a
few
of
the
sponsors,
but
then
we
also
have
partners
who
help
us
facilitate
the
racer
clinics
and
those
are
Columbus
parks
and
recs.
J
Z
Would
just
wanted
to
good
evening
I'm,
Lionel,
Hank,
jr.
and
I
wanted
to
make
sure
that
you
all
knew
about
the
rights
of
clinics,
that's
upcoming,
which
is
going
to
be
on
June,
the
3rd
and
due
to
the
tent
at
Northside
Recreation
Center.
As
these
racer
clinics
does
the
youths
are
able
to
come
out
and
get
an
alternative
educational
experience
that
they
might
not
see
in
school.
We
held
one
clinic
this
past
Saturday
at
29th,
Street
gym
where
we
dealt
with
them
with
polymers.
We
have
them.
Z
F
E
J
Clinics
are
free
and
they
are
open
to
the
community.
We
only
ask
that
you
go
to
our
website,
which
is
at
WWS
crostino
RG,
to
register.
There
is
a
65
dollar
registration
fee,
however,
for
the
actual
derby,
but
again
we
provide
the
insurance,
we
provide
the
vehicles
and
they
are
actually
racing
for
a
jackpot
of
300
dollars
for
first
place,
and
we
thank
the
community
for
that
and
second
place
is
$200
and
third
places
$100.
J
We
are
looking
for
this
event
to
grow
with
our
community,
because
the
kids
can
actually
raise
up
until
21
and
they
are
actually
eligible
for
international
competition,
which
is
in
Akron
Ohio,
and
so
we
are
growing
our
programs
so
that
we
can
actually
participate
in
that
again.
We
thank
you
for
this
time
and
we
look
forward
to
seeing
you
July
29th.

You,
okay,
I
counsel,
good.
W
W
Before
and
we
had
all
these
people
in
the
room
trying
to
decide
how
to
do
different
things
and
Roberts
looking
to
try
to
carve
out
a
little
niche
and
to
what
she
had
to
do,
and
we
talked
about
you
being
persistent
and
staying
focused,
you
had
a
great
idea
and
she
felt
that
the
world
was
a
little
bit
against
at
the
time
and
I
just
wanted
to
publicly.
Thank
you
for
sticking
with
it.
You
knew
you
had
a
great
idea.

AA
Good
evening,
I'm
Robert
Arnett
terrible
for
Council
today
is
a
private
citizen
of
Columbus
to
propose
changes
to
Council's
ethics,
ordinances
and
protocols.
Like
say,
I
do
not
represent
any
organizational
group,
but
I
do
represent
a
growing
voice
in
the
community.
For
those
who
would
like
to
see
greater
fairness
and
you.
E
AA
More
ethics,
transparency
and
government,
though
our
current
counsel,
obviously
did
not
originate
the
ordinances
and
protocol
to
which
I
shall
refer.
Nonetheless,
these
ordinances
protocol
no
longer
serve
in
the
best
interest
of
our
city
and
therefore
our
requests.
They
be
changed
proposal
I,
request,
counsel
to
amend
the
ordinances
to
prohibit
councilmen
from
voting
if
it
benefits
an
organization
of
which
the
councillors
are
a
member.
In
our
request,
changes
in
ethic
order
says
to
apply
to
all
public
officials
and
not
just
counselors
the
need
for
this
change.
AA
Traffic
ordinances
only
came
to
my
attention
very
very
recently
when
I
attended
a
public
meeting
regarding
the
closure
of
a
portion
of
Leonard
Street
Street
Olive
own,
to
give
the
land
to
st.
Paul's
Church
for
their
building
its
expansion
program,
and
at
that
public
meeting
it
was
I
learned
that
two
council
members
are
members
of
st.
Paul's
Church.
They
had
already
made
up
their
mind
as
to
how
they
were
going
to
vote
on
this
proposal
without
any
input
whatsoever
from
the
neighborhood
and
under
existing
Georgia
ethic
laws
and
council
ordinances.
AA
They
did
not
have
to
recuse
themselves
because
they
had
no
financial
interest
in
the
land.
To
me,
this
is
such
an
inequitable
ordinance
and
even
ludicrous
that
they
wouldn't
have
to
occur.
Cures
themselves
is
conflict
of
interest.
I,
don't
think
I
need
to
discuss
that
further
I'm
on
a
stiffness
Judy
Thomas
will
be
kind
enough
to
take
the
lead
on
council
to
get
this
ordinance
changed
and
that
a
transparent
council
vote
be
held
so
we'll
know
where
all
of
councillors
stood.
AA
Second
Matt
I
wish
to
discuss
with
you
again
only
just
learned
off
a
week
ago
attending
a
meeting
in
our
neighborhood
regarding
the
closure
of
Leonard
Street,
in
which
the
mayor
was
gracious
enough
to
come,
speak
to
us
candidly
about
how
city
government
worked,
we
didn't
even
know
she
told
us.
You
got
the
wrong
person
here.
You
need
you
councilmen
here
and
in
the
conversation
of
her
explaining
to
us
how
it
worked.
AA
I
learned
that
in
most
cases
most
cases
the
protocol
of
this
county
so
is
to
follow
the
recommendation
based
on
lead
counsel,
so
I
thought.
Well,
you
know
that
seems
fair
enough.
Most
of
you
have
full-time
jobs,
city
doesn't
pay
you
very
much.
That's
for
sure,
and
this
is
just
a
you
know,
efficient
of
use
of
counselors
time,
but
then
I
reflected
on
it
deeper
and
I
thought.
No.
This
is
wrong.
This
is
not
right.
This
is
not
fair,
and
this
is
bad.
AA
Government
counsel
was
not
set
up
for
one
person
to
have
ten
votes.
It
was
set
up
for
ten
council
members
to
have
one
vote
each.
So
if
the
formal
were
the
case,
we
would
just
obviously
need
what
one
council
person
to
govern
for
the
whole
city.
The
existing
protocol
I
may
have
initially
worked
well
when
it
was
originated,
but
over
the
years
with
the
growth
of
special
interest
groups,
huge
organizations
in
wealthy
churches,
the
Gaza.
AA
AA
Protocol
is
to
disenfranchise
the
citizens
of
the
city
in
shift
power
to
the
special
interest
groups
and
wealthy
few
hypothetical
examples,
I
think
will
make
us
perfectly
clear
if
any
of
it
seems
to
fit
any
of
you
totally
coincidence.
I,
don't
know
what
anybody's
profession
is.
Let's
take
the
example:
expanding
a
church
building
program
closure
of
a
street
what
if
a
councilman,
sells
insurance
and
has
clients
in
that
church
he's
not
a
disinterested
party.
AA
If
you're,
not
very
careful
and
continually
vigilant,
each
of
you
just
cooperate
with
each
other
to
have
complete
autonomy
within
your
own
district
and
that's
a
bad
government,
and
it
also
will
destroy
the
harmony
and
well-being
of
the
city.
Another
point
I
request
council
to
consider
which
I
learned
about
it.
The
meeting
again,
thanks
to
the
mayor,
we
wouldn't
even
known
about
it
and
I
neighborhood.
This
posited
the
ability
to
have
a
compromise
or
could
own
the
the
presentation
of
what's
of
a
proposal.
AA
That's
presented
and
I
just
like
to
suggest
that
some
had
seen
two
minutes.
Councilman's
responsibility,
not
the
mayor's
to
educate
dissenting
groups
in
a
district
is
there
is
a
possibility
to
have
your
compromise
put
on
the
proposal
for
all
of
you
to
vote
on
again.
We
would
have
known
about
it.
Had
it
not
been
for
mayor
I
do
want
to
add
our
councilmen.
We
learned
it
emailed
him.
Everything
was
great,
he'll
put
it
on
the
proposal.
AA
Let
us
know
it
have
more
suggestions,
but
we
didn't
know
about
it
and
somehow
I
think
you
need
to
educate
your
people
in
your
district.
In
conclusion,
I'd
like
to
mention
that
Columbus
has
all
of
the
resources
necessary
to
be
one
of
the
greatest
cities
in
Southeast
and
us
for
sure.
All
we
need
is
I
must
say
their
ethical,
progressive
government
and
a
government
that
will
attract
people
to
the
city
rather
than
you
know.
People
wanting
to
move
away
so
I.
AA
Interdependence
of
mankind's
destiny
with
higher
universal
divine
laws,
and
if
you
will
believe
in
accept
that
our
destiny
and
well-being
depends
on
higher
law,
then
of
course
you
will
want
to
operate
this
city
and
government
on
the
highest
level.
We
can
because
it's
sowing
the
seeds
for
well-being
and
prosperity
in
our
city.
AA
Destiny
is
bought
all
ten
of
you,
together,
as
elected
officials,
to
make
Columbus
a
model
of
fair
and
ethical
government
for
state
for
our
country
and
I
would
suggest
for
Washington
as
well.
So
in
determining
the
proposed
changes
that
you
want
to
make
to
Council's
government
to
make
it
more
ethical
and
fairer
to
all,
as
each
of
you
to
follow
your
conscience,
which
is
the
moral
compass
within
each
and
every
one
of
you.
So
in
closing,
we
had
nice
long
prayer
at
the
beginning
of
the
meeting.
AA
B
Thank
you,
mr.
Arnot,
we're
so
glad
we
came
and
we're
so
glad
it
looks
like
there
is
going
to
be
a
compromise.
We
do
take
all
of
these
issues,
whether
it's
zoning
or
Street,
closings
or
whatever
it
might
be
so
seriously
and
and
when
there's
opposing
views,
it's
always
difficult.
So
we're
glad
when
people
can
come
together
with
compromise
and
maybe
even
get
a
better
solution,
so
we'll
see
and
they'll
take
it
very
seriously.
Thank
you.
B
And
you
can
give
it
to
the
clerk
there
if
you
want
to,
is
she'll,
get
it
to
everybody,
she'll
email,
it
everybody.
Thank
you
so
much
and
we
do
follow
the
state
ethics
rules.
You
know
we
can
do
different
things,
obviously
the
state,
but
that's
what
we
follow
so
far.
So
we
end
the
ones
that
are
in
our
charter.
AA
B
AA
B
X
D
B
B
M
On
then
I
just
want
like
most
little
councillors,
we
take
in
consideration
to
what
not
only
constituents
we
say
to
us
for
people
that
it
has
an
impact
on.
We
may
listen
this
to
our
fellow
councilor
who's
over
that
district,
but
as
for
me,
well
I
vote
I
make
up
my
own
man,
because
I
have
to
be
able
to
tell
you
why
I
did
what
I
did
when
I
do
it.
G
B
AA
B
Well,
thank
you
very
much.
We
do
appreciate
that
all
right.
Next
we
have
mr.
Duane
Melvin
I,
don't
think
I
saw
him
here,
no
and
then
let's
see
Randall
it
Taylor.
No
okay.
Moving
on
mr.
Jeffrey
Brogdon,
representing
Sheridan
residents
wants
to
speak
to
us
about
water
overflow
from
a
new
subdivision
good
evening.
AB
AB
B
AB
Right
and
mr.
Derek
Pinkney,
here's
a
resident,
Miss
Christina
Northington
is
a
resident
in
miss
Frances
Pierre
as
a
resident
and
mr.
Jeff
Lamar
was
unable
to
be
with
us
he's
out
of
town
we're
here
today
to
talk
about
flooding,
that's
happening
in
Chariton
forest
concerning
the
overflow
of
water,
coming
from
the
new
sears
pond
south
development,
and
so
we
have
some
pictures
and
some
videos,
and
we
have.
AB
No
the
problems
we
have
existing
is
the
fact
we
have
flooding
after
rainfalls
of
two
to
five
inches
lingering
pools
of
water
that
smell
and
attract
mosquitoes
after
that
destruction
of
property,
inability
to
use
personal
property
for
days
due
to
the
saturation
of
the
land,
environmental
erosion
and
lack
of
appropriate
drainage
from
the
property.
This
is
mr.
Darryl,
pink,
dark,
pink
knees,
residents.
AB
This
first
picture
is
his
next-door
neighbor
and
the
back
of
him
miss
Pierre,
that's
the
fence
line
and
that's
the
flood
line
that
comes
down
to
into
a
area
there
and
back
of
his
shed.
You
can
see
in
the
second
slide:
that's
a
asum
one-and-a-half
inch
drop,
I
wouldn't
have
to
drop
from
I
is
where
that
drop,
and
then
it
goes
into
a
French
drain
system.
AB
That's
what
it
looks
like
when
it's
dry,
then,
where
you
see
the
French
drain,
runs
between
the
path
of
the
bushes,
that's
the
exit
of
the
French
drain
and
that's
what
happens
when
the
its
overtaxed
as
erosion
from
the
rain
in
his
backyard,
which
two
years
ago,
was
fully
fully
green,
no
problems
in
whatsoever.
Now
he
really
has
no
backyard.
This
is
property
damage
took
place.
He
had
a
major
foundation
problem.
They
had
to
correct
in
2002
end
of
2015,
first
part
of
2016.
It
resulted
in
repair
of
over
seventeen
thousand
dollars
to
his
home.
AB
These
are
the
repairs.
This
is
inside
the
house.
These
are
things
they
have
not
been
repaired
to
this
point:
separation
of
the
wall
to
the
ceiling
cracks
in
the
wall.
This
is
mrs.
Francis
peer
house.
You
see
back
there
all
the
vegetations
going
because
the
development
where
they
had
it.
This
is
the
river
flow.
If
you'll
see
her
driveway
is
a
very
wet
there.
It
flows
very
down
the
hill
to
her
driveway.
That's
the
back
of
her
yard
in
the
middle
of
a
Mesa
call
major
rain.
AB
This
is
a
yard,
and
if
we
could
that's
a
video,
if
we
could
play
it
a
little
bit
of
that
video,
this
was
this
past
Saturday.
The
rainfall
that
took
place
this
past
Saturday.
This
is
the
back
of
her
yard
right
here
you
see
the
water
standing
is
going
down
just
a
little
bit.
That's
a
level
yard
this!
The
this
is
the
water
coming
down
from
sea
respond
to,
and
it
also
comes
back
up
the
way
there.
AB
This
is
the
water
going
down
toward
my
father-in-law's
house,
going
through
the
yard
down
the
fence
line
and,
if
you'll
see
you'll
eventually
get
over
to
where
the
where
there
is
a
going
down.
This
isn't
back
in
mr.
Pinkney's
home,
you
see
this
is
a
easement
and
and
it's
the
drainage
easement
that
goes
to
a
culvert.
We
will
see
that
in
a
minute
this
is
overgrown,
and
this
is
level
area
here.
It
does
not
go
downward
right
now,
we've
had
mr.
AB
councilman
Barnes
out
to
look
at
this
he's
he's
seeing
these
things
himself,
then
this
is
where
mrs.
Pirie
had
to
put
up
a
barrier
to
keep
water
from
going
into
her
screened-in
porch
there
on
the
other
side
and
to
destroy
that.
This
is
mrs..
This
is
mr.
Chris
Burlington's
mariette
court,
a
home.
This
is
where,
if
you'll
see
over
to
the
left
slide
there
water
eroding
the
infrastructure
to
his
property
there
in
the
back
and
in
the
front
also
the
property
damage
is
the
water
coming
off
where
he
cannot
grow.
AB
AB
This
is
serious
pond.
This
was
an
aerial
view
before
the
houses
were
being
built.
If
you'll
see
there
and
below.
That
is
the
residents
of
where
we're
Marriott,
Drive
and
Mariette
Court
is
UCC
respond
to
is
above
that
area
it
slopes
down
to
that
area.
This
is
the
water
flow.
If
you
can
see,
and
according
to
the
city
inspector
John
Kennedy
who
I
met
with
on
two
occasions,
he
said,
there's
a
14-foot
drop
from
the
entrance
of
the
subdivision
to
the
lowest
point,
which
is
a
but
the
lowest
point
is
below
the
retention.
AB
Pod
is
below
the
retention
pond
and
that's
what
goes
into
the
easement,
which
then,
when
the
eastman
overflows
comes
into
the
yards
and
Denton,
my
father-in-law's
house
also
you'll
see
the
water
flow
there
in
finding.
This
is
an
official
area
of
the
plat
that
mr.
Pinkney
was
able
to
provide
to
us,
and
it
does
not
show
Sears
Sears
Pines
on
to,
but
it
does
show
you
that
along
the
backside
of
everybody's
home,
isn't
isn't
drainage
easement.
These
are
not
draining
properly
but
I'm
sure.
AB
If
we
look
at
the
plat
of
the
new
serious
pond
to
development,
we
would
also
see
an
easement
on
their
side.
Okay,
we
were
not
able
to
obtain
that
if
you
would
pass
all
three
of
these
at
the
same
time,
these
are
videos
of
this
past
weeks.
Rainfall
these
can
work
together.
That's
the
French
drain
from
my
father-in-law's
house,
and
if
you
go
up
the
road
you
can
go
up
here
on
here.
This
is
going
up,
mrs.
Pinkney's,
and
this
is
my
final
loss.
AB
This
is
on
the
right
side
that
you're
seeing
is
the
water
flow
coming
off.
Mr.
Pinkney's,
driveway
and
you'll
see
the
different
water
flow
and
then
it's
going
down
in
front
of
my
final
house,
but
if
you'll
see
above
there,
the
water
flow
is
less
that's
because
in
the
back
side
of
those
homes
they
have
a
pave
easement
that
actually
drops
down
from
Nathan
Road
all
the
way
down
to
the
culvert,
which
you'll
see
in
a
moment.
E
AB
The
culverts
you'll
see
if
your
the
easement
effective,
the
effective
residents
not
concreted,
and
it's
overgrown
with
underbrush
through
mr.
piers
yard.
We
also
see
there's
the
culvert
that
Cobra
has
them
coming
in
from
the
sea.
Respond
to
retention
pond
also
here
is
the
paved
area
on
the
right-hand
side
coming
down
from
Macon
Road.
The
this
culvert
then
feeds
into
the
sewer
line
on
the
city.
AB
You'll
hit
all
three
of
these
two.
At
the
same
time,
this
is
the
culvert
that's
in
back
of
mr.
Piggy's
home,
as
you
see
the
one
with
us
where
the
overgrowth
is
and
where
water
is
slightly
coming
down,
that
is
the
area
coming
down
from
their
homes.
You
see
the
other
side.
This
is
also
the
back
side
of
the
growth.
These
are
different
areas
where
the
where
the
water
is
flooding
the
area.
You
can
see
that
it's
goes
down
into
that
it
goes
down
into
this
retention
area.
Here
this
is
below
the
retention
pond.
AB
That's
up
there
in
the
subdivision.
Also,
the
retention
pond
flows
into
this.
Now
this
is
the
retention
pond
if
you
hit
both
of
those.
At
the
same
time,
this
is
the
retention
pond.
This
is
this
is
up
in
sea
response
to
now,
if
you'll
see,
they've
got
a
drainage
problem
over
it.
If
the
grass
is
not
even
growing
you're
going
to
have
these
residents
coming
to
Council,
also
because
the
water
comes
off
a
hill
above
them
and
flows
into
this
areas
also,
it
is
a
mess
up
there
right
now,
so
the
water
is
not
going.
AB
If
you
follow
the
line
and
I'm
pointing
right
there
to
the
retention
pond
to
another
drain
that
comes
into
the
retention
pond,
that's
to
the
side
of
it.
The
retention
pond
needs
to
be
further
back.
It
was
that's
just
all
it
needs
to
be,
but
the
water
beyond
the
retention,
pond
flows
down
and
I
want
to
get
through
this
if
you'll
follow.
If
you
see
is
this
follows
in
Africa,
and
it's
already
trenched
in
the
developer,
put
up
a
barrier
there,
this
past
rain
it
broke
through
that
barrier
and
came
down
again
as
mud.
AB
So
that's
just
gives
you
the
summary.
We
like
the
following
actions:
paved
the
easement
behind
these
homes
and
make
it
a
downward
slope,
so
it
flows
into
the
culvert,
so
it
will
not
come
into
the
Arts,
maybe
with
city
engineers,
developers
and
council.
I
will
tell
you
this,
as
this
has
been
done,
there's
going
to
be
a
meeting
that
mr.
Pinkney
is
going
to
meet
with
them
tomorrow.
AB
To
discuss
this
further,
we
wanted
to
make
you
aware
of
it,
because
this
is
a
major
concern.
All
these
people
include
my
father-in-law.
My
fall
is
our
team
late
investment,
but
these
are
homes
that
heat
this
home
is
fitting
since
1977
and
they
pay
taxes
now
and
they're
tax
payers.
The
essence
negotiated
solution
between
Sears
pioneer
Court
Marion
Drive
residents,
our
developments,
so
that
we
have
resolution
to
this
and
save
yards,
save
foundations
and
safe.
Are
we
thinking,
sir.
B
AB
M
B
P
Thank
you,
I
walked
this
area
a
couple
of
times.
What's
really
interesting
is
that
before
the
water
is
not
even
going
into
the
retention
pond
as
bypassing
going
directly
the
slope,
the
topography
of
the
land
is
such
that
just
common
sense
tells
you
to
the
layin.
Is
that
with
the
slipper,
but
it's
going
right
into
the
back
of
these
homes
and
it's
been
going
in
the
back
of
these
homes
for
some
time.
P
Mr.
Brogdon
with
your
father-in-law
I,
went
inside
his
home
and
we
actually
took
the
pictures
of
where
it's
been
separating,
but
it's
been
separating
for
quite
some
time
outside
and,
of
course,
it's
causing
the
damage
in
about
five
or
six
places
on
the
inside
of
his
house.
Mr.
amis
has
done
some
repairs
on
his
own
to
it,
but
there
I
notice
a
number
of
places
on
the
outside
of
his
home,
where
there's
continual
separation
is
because
of
the
flow
of
the
water.
Also,
with
mr.
P
Fortunately,
some
individual
from
the
city
they
did,
they
have
come
out,
they
have
been
in
discussion,
but
what
needs
to
happen
is
to
have
the
engineers
come
out,
because
the
individuals
from
the
city
were
very
helpful
but
they're
limited
because
they
don't
have
the
engineering
knowledge
or
experience
on
how
to
really
rectify
the
problem.
There
was
a
one
gentleman
that
came
out
and
the
homes
that
are
being
built.
Those
residents
are
going
to
have
a
continual
problem,
because
if
we
go
out
there,
you
see
the
floor.
P
The
water,
big
one,
has
identical
identical
situation
situation
even
at
a
separation
for
the
foundation,
just
for
the
way
that
the
slope
of
the
other
part
of
the
terrain
is
so
it's
just.
This
has
been
going
on
for
some
time
line
and
if
he,
mr.
Brogdon
hadn't
called
me
and
I
had
actually
gone
out
there
in
the
days
that
it
rained
I
wouldn't
have
even
ever
would
have
noticed
it.
P
But
if
you
just
think
common
sense,
we
don't
look
the
property
slopes
and
for
the
fact
that
the
retention
pond
is
not
that
catching
any
of
the
the
water
at
all.
It's
going
directly
into
the
backs
and
on
the
one
Chris
is
a
house:
that's
at
the
bend
he
actually
he's
actually
being
hit
from
both
ways
from
the
floor
of
the
water,
from
making
railroad
as
well
as
from
pond
to
Mississippi
man.
You
remember
the
problems
that
that
you
had
the
individuals
from
mom.
P
E
P
AC
P
AB
Father
law
has
a
yard
mowed
there,
sometimes
yes
go
as
long
as
four
weeks
before
the
mowers
can
get
on
there
because
they
spotted
down
so
bad.
These
are
push
mowers,
I'm,
push
more
lighting
right,
but
the
rod
noise
came,
you
can
get
on
there,
so
I
mean
it's
in
part.
The
saturation
is
so
bad
from
the
flow
down.
That's
that's
the
issue
right
now.
What.
Z
AB
AB
B
AB
B
I'm
going
to
see
if
I
can,
but
it
seems
like
I,
have
something
from
2:00
to
4:00
tomorrow,
but
that's
just
in
my
head,
but
I'll
look
to
say
you're
right
right.
So
but
in
any
event
let
me
check
that
and
then
it's
not
I
would
like
to
get
a
report
just
to
see.
What's
going
on,
I'll
entertain,
while
the.
B
AB
E
AB
With
the
real
estate
agent
as
to
how
Davis
comes
Development
totin,
we
would
be
more
than
welcome
to
talk
to
mr.
Lee
mr.
Lindsey
or
anybody
who
was
there
when
I
met
I
met
with
John,
Kennedy
and
I
met
with
Chris
Wallace,
the
Builder
of
the
property,
and
so
he
said,
I
can't
do
anything.
Of
course,
mr.
King
said
I
think
is
important
about
the
plan
sake
beyond
that.
Take
a
few
councilmen
and
take
it
to
the
City
Council.
Here
we
are
yes,
now,
no
I'm!
Sorry,
oh
yeah,.
V
B
P
Only
are
these
residents,
but
it's
going
to
be
a
similar
thing,
but
these
homes
being
built
at
that
Sears
pond.
It
definitely
have
the
same
problems
as
these
residents
have
now
and
when
you
go
out
there
and
you
see
the
water
flow,
it's
just
unbelievable.
Maybe
you
have
to
go
out
there
and
you
see
and
it's
just
common
sense:
I,
don't
I,
don't
understand
how
these
homes
were
allowed
to
be
built
with
what
the
topography?
P
B
AB
It
could
be
worked
out
at
with
everybody
just
to
say
get
it
get
it
down:
girls
further,
south!
Okay.
From
that
standpoint,
I
do
want
to
thank
this
thing's
to
get
a
good
person
and
also
city
manager's
office
for
accommodating
me.
Y'all
tried
calling
me
and
wrong
number,
and
so
anyway,
your
mega
combinations
for
snot.
We
thank
you
so
much
prefect.
P
B
N
N
T
N
Gift
to
use
this
to
everybody,
I
have
talked
to
you,
April
to
twenty-fifth.
N
Talk
to
you
made
a
knife,
and
now
tonight
and
I
hope
you
invite
me
back
in
the
future.
I
have
talked
to
you
about
many
things
and
I
do
strongly
believe
that
what
you
let
your
realty
companies,
but
you
let
other
people
that
rent
here
in
Columbus
Georgia
I
strongly
believe
it
deters
prosperity
and
Columbus
Georgia,
because
people
feel
things
when
it
happened
to
them.
N
N
You
know
what
happened
to
me.
You
know:
code
inspection
went
out,
you
know,
code,
inspection
being
that
property
gave
them
a
forty
five
days.
I
think
that
was
back
in
October
September
and
you
know
you
allowed
that
case
to
be
closed
with
no
accident.
What
ever
you
allow
people
go
to
move
back
in
there,
and
nothing
still
been
done
about
that
today
is
fear,
slows
people
are
still
living
in
that
it
hurt
me
I
call
mr.
Libby,
with
Kenneth
Parker,
Duncan
and
Davis
the
day
before
and
I
told
her
I
was
sick,
I
told
her.
N
N
Those
problems
are
cleared
up,
make
sure
this
happens,
put
whatever
you
have
to
do
a
law
or
ordinance
whatever
and
like
the
person
who
did
nice,
try
so
hard
to
get
the
people
to
let
her
in
out
the
can
of
Parker
duck
and
they
I
had
that
problem.
She
went
back
and
back
and
back
she
left
notes
on
the
door.
She
had
to
close
the
case.
There
should
not
happen
anymore.
N
N
It
so
before
in
about
you,
move
into
a
house
that
have
been
empty
for
six
months:
you're,
cold
and
inspection
people
have
to
go
out
or
some
maybe
The,
Electric
Company
have
to
go
out,
make
sure
those
wires
are
safe.
Make
sure
that
house
passed,
don't
just
let
somebody
live
into
our
house
that
been
boarded
up
or
been
empty,
I,
don't
care
if
the
realtor
company
is
Rinda,
I,
don't
care
if
the
landlord
is
going
to
rinse
it
with
them.
N
Clothes
been
empty
for
six
months,
but
a
law
put
ordinance
in
place
where,
before
the
tunnel
before
they
moving
that
in
there
before
our
utilities,
turn
on
put
a
law
or
ordinance
in
place
that
have
to
be
inspected,
I
know
in
one
state
it
have
to
be
inspected
by
the
power
facility.
The
power
company
won't
even
turn
nothing
on
and
have
to
be
reinfected
by
the
city.
Please
put
into
place.
N
Okay,
I
also
put
in
place
where
how
to
be
checked
by
a
professional
notice
company
and
be
clear
by
them,
and
that
given
to
code
and
inspection,
I
ducked
verbs
flying
roaches
I
have
flea
bites.
Put
that
in
place.
That
also
be
given
to
a
coating
inspection
system,
I
put
it
in
place
not
or
what
else?
Okay.
Next
thing
I'm
going
to
talk
about,
I
talked
about
that
shirt.
N
I
felt
I
tried
to
put
guards
on
our
Darnell
Tackett
I
was
gonna,
put
dodge
top
and
the
bathrooms
parade,
and
when
they
later
call
me
and
say
yep,
this
car
would
be
number
source.
Oh,
but
I
want
to
remind
you
that
it's
not
on
November
11th,
Veterans
Day,
it's
the
Monday,
alpha
I,
said
uh-huh
repeater
and
she
did
go
back.
Show
us
veterans
that
you
really
really
love
us,
but
Veterans
Day
back
on
November
11.
N
Please
put
it
back
whatever
you
have
to
do
low
ordnance,
whatever
put
it
back
on
it
on
November
11,
okay,
I
did
this
veteran
day,
I
told
you
to
tear
it
down.
If
they
don't,
let
you
respect.
I
told
you
about
how
this
is
and
pairing
your
city,
not
only
bad
people,
because
I'm
a
Georgian
when
they
hurt
you
got
children
you're
trying
to
put
in
a
situation
where
your
house,
not
even
one
I'm
living
in
the
house,
I
moved
in
March.
N
The
second
right
now
I,
don't
care
I
didn't
help
my
unit
on
that
one
I
still
don't
hell,
I
didn't
have
heat
I
still
don't
have
air,
and
now
there's
data
got
at
me,
I
put
in
the
writing
and
March
I'm.
Moving
in
March
then
told
me
that
gonna
take
me
I,
so
be
on
the
street.
It
hurt
so
at
first
don't
let
people
be
done
like
that
on
my
old
Larry
sticks
to
secure
old
I
shouldn't
be
treated
like
that
Georgia
go
through
the
same
thing.
N
N
That
I
was
in
on
41st
Street
God
paid
the
way,
so
you
call
on
him
first,
so
y'all
can
see
I'm,
not
the
only
one
displeased
with
what
y'all
allow
realization
company
and
people
who
rent
the
put
in
now
I
want
to
say
thank
y'all
for
allowing
me
to
speak.
You
know,
I
love,
you
I,
love,
everyone,
cuz,
Jesus,
say
love,
everyone
is
I,
have
loved
you
and
I
lay
down
my
life
and
die.
It's
a
growing
thing,
they'll
be
people.
It's
a
growing
thing,
though
groans
and
I
I.
Just
hope
you
do.

Q
Madam
mayor
I'm,
going
to
ask
deputy
city
manager
Pam
Hodges
to
come
forward.
Well,
scuse
me
director,
Laura
Johnson.
It's
going
to
come
forward
and
talk
about
the
revisions
and
the
extension
being
requested
by
Westfield
on
the
memorandum
of
agreement,
and
it
is
very
brief.
It's
like
two
pages,
so
six
lads.
So
it
should
not
take
very
long.
AD
Q
AD
Just
real
fast
just
wanted
to
provide
a
brief
overview
of
what
we're
requesting
on
the
expense
as
an
extension
to
the
MOA
in
the
lease
agreement
that
we
currently
have
with
Westville.
The
MOA
extension
between
Westville
in
the
city
approved
her
resolution
2287
Dec
16.
It
will
expire
on
October
31st
of
2017,
so
we
are
asking
to
go
ahead
and
request
that
Annaleigh
to
be
extended
for
an
additional
year
so
that
it
will
won't
expire
until
August
31st
to
2018.
AD
We
also
have
a
lease
agreement
with
Westville
for
the
use
of
the
scale
house.
It's
located
at
35,
35
B,
south
pumpkin
Road.
That
was
also
approved
for
resolution.
87
16
Italy
also
expire
on
August
31st
2017.
So
we
wanted
to
go
ahead
and
ask
to
extend
that
lease
agreement
as
well
to
not
expire
until
August
31st
2018.
AD
We
are
also
asking
for
a
request
at
for
a
partnership
to
build
a
city
parking
lot
out
at
that
location
track.
A
that
was
sold
to
Westville
was
actually
split
into
three
parcels
with
a
city.
Maintaining
ownership
of
a
two
Westville
has
asked
that
the
city
assist
with
the
development
of
a
parking
lot
on
track
a
and
that
parking
lot
would
be
utilized
by
the
general
public
for
parking
and
access
to
the
trail
from
that
at
that
location.
AD
The
cost
estimate
for
the
proposed
parking
lot
will
be
approximately
$600,000
that
will
include
the
clearing
grading,
drainage,
drainage
utilities
and
paving
they've
requested
the
city
to
contribute
$250,000
towards
that
expense.
Westville
would
pay
the
remaining
of
approximate
over
$350,000
there's
also
going
to
be
lighting.
That's
required
for
the
parking
lot
they're
asking
for
the
city
to
contribute
a
twenty-one
thousand
five
hundred
dollars
to
install
that
lighting
and
also
for
the
city
to
pay
the
two
hundred
twenty
dollars
per
month
for
the
utility
bill
for
that
lighting
as
well.
AD
The
proposed
funding
sources
with
the
Olof
infrastructure
funding
to
pay
for
the
parking
lot
for
the
city's
contribution
to
the
parking
lot
and
also
to
pay
to
have
the
lights
installed.
And
then
the
$220
for
the
utility
bill
for
the
lights
would
be
paid
out
of
street
lighting
budget
of
the
street
lighting
budget
and
the
general
fund
and
West
Bill
is
here
to
provide
some
additional
updates
on
where
they
are
in
the
process
of
actually
relocating
to
Columbus.
E
F
Is
you
said
the
funding
source
for
the
Olaf?
Did
you
consider
using
T
spots
money
for
that,
the
discretionary
to
splice
money
I?
Let.
D
And
that
was
part
of
the
transportation
plan
that
I
presented
at
one
of
the
budget
review
sessions
and
it
wasn't
slated
to
be
used.
40-Plus
discretionary,
we've
used
a
lot
infrastructure
for
that
particular
project,
but
it
was
part
of
the
transportation
plan
as
we
walk
through
the
project
from
teeth
gloss
that
we
have
and
FY
18
include
resurfacing.
The
Benning
Drive
bridge
traffic
calming
guardrails
and
to
match
for
the
z2
30
projects
that
were
presented
as
well
as
sidewalks,
and
so
their
funding
for
the
parking
lot
was
done
with
Olaf
infrastructure.
D
D
The
end
of
FY
18,
the
balance
that
we
show
available
that
will
go
into
F
by
19,
is
1.5
million,
so
we
still
have
some
allocated,
but
the
in
the
T
floss
discretionary.
You
know
we
had
categories
that
council
adopted,
so
we
have
for
hunt.
It
will
anticipate
having
400
available
in
Road
improvement
about
20,000
and
bridge
and
culvert
225
and
maintenance
and
safety
improvements.
D
AE
AE
They
did
not
approve
our
initial
permit,
but
we're
working
with
them
we'll
be
meetings,
I'll,
be
meeting
with
the
Stewart
County
Commission
at
a
work
session
on
June
6
I'll.
Give
them
presentation
on
our
project
on
our
update.
They'll
have
some
questions
of
me
also
to
clarify
some
of
the
concerns
or
issues
they
may
have.
AE
The
the
number
one
issue
at
hand
is:
what
will
they
charge
for
the
permit
to
move
buildings
on
2/10
of
a
mile
of
county
roads?
That's
what's
at
hand
right
now
and
they
plan
to
during
that
work
session.
Have
that
worked
out
so
that
we'll
be
able
to
then
forward
recommendations
to
the
full
County
Commission
on
June
13th,
to
vote
on
what
the
fee
structure
will
be
for
moving
structures
around
Stewart
County.
AE
And
and
as
you
know,
as
I
suggested,
I
trust
that
will
work
through
any
difficulties
that
there
may
be
any
concerns
that
they
may
have.
It
there's
no
reason
why
we
can't
get
the
permits,
and
so
we
we
do
really.
We
trust
that
we'll
be
able
to
work
this
out.
It
has
caused
a
slight
delay,
but
we've
built
in
delays
into
this
project,
I
think
all
construction
projects
you
always
build
in
the
contingency
time
and
for
money
and
recently
have
done
that
as
well.
AE
But
meanwhile,
we
are
still
continuing
to
prepare
buildings
in
Lumpkin
for
the
move,
we've
got
buildings
ready
to
roll.
In
fact,
one
on
wheels
waiting
to
be
hooked
up
to
the
truck
to
roll.
As
soon
as
we
get
the
permits,
we
fully
expect
on
June
13th
that
the
city
that
code
Commission
will
approve
a
fee
structure
that
won't
just
apply
to
us,
but
it'll
apply
to
anyone
else
who
wants
to
do
moving
structures
in
Stewart
County.
So
we
are
the
first
ones
out
of
the
chute.
AE
In
order
to
get
this
to
happen,
we're
also
we're
not
stopping
work
even
in
in
Columbus
rain
stops
us,
but
when
it's
not
raining
we're
still
working,
we've
got.
We've
got
a
couple
locations
ready
to
receive
buildings
here
in
Lumpkin,
I'm,
sorry
in
Columbus,
and
as
soon
as
we
get
to
permit
we'll
be
able
to
roll
those
right
on
to
place
and
get
them
set
here
in
Columbus
in
just
a
couple
of
days
after
we
get
the
permit.
G
You
Man
appreciate
it.
I
just
had
a
question
and
I
don't
know
if
our
staff
is
helping
until
if
I
understand
correctly,
you
are
the
first
organization
that
will
be
moving
buildings,
so
they're
trying
to
determine
the
permit
cost
for
that
correct.
AE
G
We
have
anything
like
that
and
we
could
probably
share
with
them
because
means
you're
first
I'm
a
little
bit
concerned
a
worship
costs
money
in
that
sense
and
I'm
a
little
bit
concerned.
If
the
county
has
reached
out
to
a
CCG
for
advice
or
someone,
you
know
or
GMA.
You
know
someone
for
advice
like
usually
when
we're
going
to
do
something
that
it's
not
of
the
norm
or
it's
something
new.
G
We
usually
seek
guidance
to
see
what
other
communities
our
size
are
doing
and
then,
based
on
that
information,
then
we
make
our
determination
how
we
want
to
do.
It
doesn't
mean
we're
going
to
do
it
exactly
like
that.
You
know
community
did
it,
but
it
gives
us.
You
know
an
idea
of
you
know
how
much
air
or
what
can
be
done.
Is
there
anywhere
well
we'll.
G
G
G
V
Let
me
well
come
on
I'm,
somewhat
open-minded,
but
yet
independent
and
thank
him
as
well,
but
this
is,
this
is
a
new.
What
I
see
being
proposed
here
is
a
new
agreement
that
you're
asking
that
you're
requesting
with
the
city.
It's
not
the
original
agreement.
Q
Q
One
resolution,
for
example,
authorized
city
manager
to
enter
an
MOA
with
Westfield
relocating
the
living
history
museum
through
Columbus
Georgia.
That
was
the
first
one,
the
second
one
in
September
of
that
was
August
13
of
2013
in
September,
15
2015.
You
did
a
another
resolution
to
5015
to
extend
the
timeframe
to
begin
normal
operations
of
the
museum.
Mr.
V
Dramatic,
if
I
may,
with
all
due
respect,
let
me
just
get
right
to
it.
Okay,
given.
V
V
And
I
want
to
go
back
to
remind
everybody
original
agreement.
I
think
we
had
some
very
straightforward
discussion
on
this
exactly
what
everybody's
commitment
was
at
that
point
and
I
think
everybody
agreed
at
that
point
as
a
businessman,
a
deal's
a
deal,
and
everybody
agreed
to
that
at
that
point
now.
I
would
hope
that,
as
a
capital
that
we
talked
about
your
your
capital
funding
campaign,
have
you
reached
all
that
we're.
AE
V
That
was
part
of
our
original
agreement,
but
you
know
it's
kind
of
hot
I,
don't
want
to
say
it's
look
I.
We
we
love,
you
guys
and
we're
moving
forward,
but
you
know
sometimes
you
know
we're
somewhat
the
protectors
of
the
of
the
public's
money
and
it's
kind
of
like
well.
If
you
don't
ask
you
might
not
get
it,
but
this
part
was
not
part
of
the
original
agreement
and
I
want
it.
Talks
about
the
problem
I'm
having
with
it
is
talks
about
the
whole
lost
infrastructure
fund
funding.
V
We
just
went
through
the
budget
dealing
with
parks
and
recs.
We
fund
a
lot
of
things
with
parks
and
recs
through
the
through
the
old
loss
in
the
infrastructure.
We
fund
a
lot
of
other
projects
paving
fund
a
lot
of
road
projects
through
I.
Think
the
road
project
that
we're
doing
out
there
now
is
coming
out
of
the
old
lost
if
I'm,
not
mistaken
and
I
can
promise
you
that
is
not
going
to
come
anywhere
near
the
budget.
V
With
that
being
said,
what
I
do
and
I
cannot
approve
is
a
request
for
operational
cost.
I
cannot
approve
a
request
to
install
lights
and
fund
the
utility
bill.
I,
just
don't
think
that's
appropriate
for
the
city
to
do
I.
Don't
think
that
the
installation
of
these
lights
at
220
dollars
a
month
is
that's.
That's
a
very,
very
low
cost.
I
think
that
cost
has
to
be
revisited,
but
that's
not
what
I
would
view
as
an
operational
cost
that
should
come
out
of
a
operational
budget
or
funding
or
revenue.
That's
coming
from
the.
V
Q
It's
our
property
and
we
would
do
250,
and
they
would
do
with
three
hundred
thousand
three
hundred
fifty
thousand
dollars
on
a
partnership
to
create
a
parking
lot
that
our
citizens
will
have
access
to
to
the
trail
and
visitors
would
have
access
to
use
for
Westfield,
and
we
certainly
think
that
it
is
going
to
be
a
benefit
to
that
area
of
our
community
and
to
all
of
Columbus
as
travelers
come
to
visit
the
next
Infantry
Museum.
Those
are
all
amenities
and
drawers
that
will
bring
people
to
for
London.
V
Q
V
Manager
I
mean
that's
that
everybody
knows
that's,
not
a
question
about
city
land.
We
we
enter
to
an
agreement
and
part
of
that
deal
was
they
didn't,
have
to
go
out
and
buy
land
or
find
a
man,
but
that's
our
contribution.
That's
all
part
of
the
contribution,
I'm.
Okay,
with
that
I'm.
Okay,
with
that
agreement,
we've
got
a
very
accommodating
lease
and
some
future
clauses
in
there
as
well
I'm.
Just
saying
that
when
I
look
at
this
there's
no
disrespect
Turing's
I'm
looking
at
open-minded
but
the
you
know
it's
changing
I'm
concerned
about
it
changing.
Q
Well,
we're,
as
you
can
see,
we've
amended
or
brought
you
at
least
three
different
resolutions
and
I
was
sharing
those
with
you
and
I.
Think
it's
the
last
one
I
can't
guarantee
you
that
and
it
were
it
not.
In
my
opinion,
a
public-private
partnership,
a
benefit
to
our
citizens.
I
would
not
have
it
on
my
agenda,
and
so
you
know,
I,
don't
you're
the
counselor
and
I
can
just
bring
you.
What
we
think
is
in
is
going
to
be
beneficial
to
Columbus
in
to
the
citizens
and
and
then
we'll
rely
on
your
vote.
V
Q
I
can
tell
you:
is
we
such
as
parks?
We
represent
accountable
replacement.
We
presented
to
you
a
list
of
projects
through
T,
splice
and
old
laws
that
we
always
bring
to
you
in
advance
for
you
to
approve,
and
we
don't
have
enough
money
to
do
a
lot
of
things
that
we
need
to
do.
That's
why
we
are
going
through
all
of
our
capital
projects
and
buildings,
and
all
of
that,
so
our
needs
list
is
very
long
and
I'm.
V
What's
that
now,
that's
the
only
reason
I'm
having
a
lot
of
a
conversation
is
because
I
get
a
sense
that
something's
going
to
be
delayed,
something's
not
going
to
get
funded
somewhere
in
order
to
push
a
new
request,
that's
being
put
before
the
council
something's
going
to
get
pushed
aside,
and
that's
just
because
their
limited
amount
of
money
in
this
fund
every
year.
Well
and
we've.
Q
Q
When
we
get
done
discussing
this
project,
we're
going
to
talk
about
city
meals
and
we're
going
to
talk
about
partnership,
and
so
you
know
we
can
bring
you
these
opportunities
and
I
mean
and
we'll
just
have
to
allow
counsel
to
waive
them
and
we're
going
to
bring
you
our
best
recommendation
all
right.
Thank
you.
V
B
V
B
F
AE
E
AE
F
I
my
other
question
mr.
city
manager,
we're
proposing
a
one-year
extension
in
the
lease
is
that
the
norm
for
at
least
one
year
or
would
it
be
helpful
if
we
had
the
least
longer
than
one
year
or
would
you
talk
about
I
you're?
Looking
at
that
I
mean
we've
already,
we've
already
extended
it
a
year
a
couple
of
times
and
I
guess
my
question
is:
do
we
need
to
make
it
longer
well,
at.
Q
This
time
or
what
is
and
perhaps
cuz
I
have
I'm
sure
you
didn't
know
that
you
were
going
to
run
into
this
problem,
that
you
hae
out.
That's
caused
a
delay
and,
and
there
unforeseen
things
and
what
you're
trying
to
do,
which
is
different,
I,
don't
know
what
you
think
about
the
one-year,
but
certainly
we.
E
AE
AE
F
G
Manager,
I
just
want
to
get
back
to
on
councillors,
Davis
on
concern
and
stuff
in
in
reference
to
this
request
here,
if
I'm,
not
mistaken,
city
village
was
not
a
project
that
we
had
planned
and
all
the
sudden
came
to
us.
We
did
partnership
with
we're
kind
of
working
with
them,
we're
working
with
Uptown
Columbus.
As
a
partnership,
we
worked
with
it
on
pieces.
We
working
with
the
dragonfly
we're
working
with
Midtown.
We
did
the
parking
lot
with
CSU
and
us
and
CBN
T.
We
share.
G
We
have
moved
the
funds
in
the
past
to
help
some
of
these
things
from
the
Liberty
theatre
and
then
placed
it
back
into
the
Liberty
theater.
So
I
just
want
you
to
make
us,
you
know
remind
us
and
help
us
feel
a
little
bit
more
comfortable
with
the
partnership.
This
is
not
something
new
and
anyone
that's
been
in
construction
or
been
part
of
these
moving
parts.
It
always
changes.
That's
why
we
stop
telling
people
well.
G
This
project
will
be
done
by
June,
the
15th
because
of
the
weather
or
situations
that
you
know
miker
like
that
to
mean
this
is
an
awesome
project,
because
this
is
again
bringing
something
good
to
our
community.
Something
I
don't
have
a
problem
with
that,
because
I
see
how
we
do
all
these
other
programs
and
we're
going
to
be
talking
soon
about
Second,
Avenue
beautification
was
very
soon.
G
You
know
we're
doing
the
Martin
Luther
King
I
mean
there's
so
many
I
know
we
are
an
untied
constrain
and
I
know
it,
but
we're
looking
for
ways
to
bring
money
and
we're
looking
for
ways
to
beautify
and
give
a
quality.
So
sometimes
it
takes
a
little
money
to
make
a
little
money.
I
don't
have
a
problem
with
it,
because
we're
open
with
all
these
other
organizations
helping
them
to
do
things
to
beautify
our
community
and
to
bring
people
to
our
community.
G
So
you
can
count
on
my
support
because
I've
been
waiting
for
self
Lemkin
beautification
for
over
three
four
years
and
I
thought
we
end
up
waiting
more
and
I
wanted
that
to
be
done
by
the
time
you
came
in
because,
like
the
infantry
museum,
they
reroute
people
instead
of
bringing
them.
You
know
you
can
come
by.
They
find
come
down
the
victory.
Drive,
you
know,
make
a
left
right
there
down
south
Lumpkin,
Road
and
you're
right
there.
You
know
there's
other
ways
that
you
can
come.
G
You
can
come
from
downtown
on
Veterans
Parkway
victory,
Drive
come
up
to
South,
Lumpkin
road
and
turn,
but
they
don't
do
that
because
it's
not
beautified
yet
you
know
so.
I
have
no
problem
because
the
more
things
I
come
into
that
area.
Maybe
that's
windows-
are
beautifying
that
little
strip
right
there,
so
that
the
traffic
can
start
coming
in
into
that
in
that
direction.
So
I
think
you
and
you
can
count
on
my
support.
G
Q
B
Q
And
I'm
requesting
at
this
time,
madam
mayor,
that
council
authorized
me
to
enter
into
an
amended
MOA
with
history
Westfield
to
extend
the
time
frame,
to
begin
normal
operations,
to
extend
the
lease
agreement
for
the
property
at
35,
35,
B,
south
Lumpkin
Road,
and
to
revise
a
language
within
the
MOA
to
incorporate
a
partnership
between
Columbus,
consolidated
government
and
Westfield
for
the
development
of
a
public
parking
lot.
That
is
what
I'm
asking
council
to
approve
today.
The.
B
Q
Yes,
yes,
sir,
that
that
is
to
include
the
$250,000
partnership,
where
they're
going
to
put
in
350,000
for
total
of
six
hundred
thousand
to
develop
that
parking
lot
on
city
property
that
our
citizens
will
have
access
to
the
trail.
It
is.
It
includes
where
the
city
would
contribute
to
install
lights
for
the
parking
lot
on
our
property.
V
Just
for
the
record,
I
can
live
with
the
request
on
the
on
the
parking
lot.
It's
that
we're
not
going
to
be
required
to
do
more
in
the
future,
but
I
cannot
with
the
with
the
utility
and
the
pain
of
the
monthly
bills
and
all
I
just
don't
but
I'm
not
going
to
support
that
with
any
requests,
whether
from
a
non-profit
or
the
or
the
private
sector.
So
that
being
said,
mayor
I'm
finished,
okay,.
Q
Q
B
D
This
is
good
evening
Council.
This
is
related
to
the
City
Mills
project
for
the
Riverwalk.
This
is
an
exchange,
an
easement
agreement,
and
it
was
a
very
complicated
agreement.
It's
attached
to
ECAP
for
your
review,
there's
about
almost
20
different
exhibits.
So
I
tried
to
summarize
that
in
a
presentation,
so
you
can
see
where
we
started
and
where
we
ended.
This
was
to
get
the
easement
that's
required
for
the
City
Mills
Riverwalk
project.
I'm
also
joined
tonight
by
Justin
Craig.
He
represents
city
milk,
Properties
LLC.
D
So
if
there's
any
questions,
he
should
be
able
to
respond
to
those
as
well
from
City
Mills
properties.
The
Riverwalk
connection
project,
as
you
recall,
was
part
of
the
transportation
investment
Act
of
2010,
where
the
River
Valley
region
approved
a
one-percent
transportation.
Special
purpose,
Local,
Option
Sales
Tax,
which
we
refer
to
as
a
tee
saw
in
2012,
which
began
collections
in
January
of
13,
and
it's
a
10-year
sales
tax.
The
completion
of
the
Riverwalk
projects
includes
two
components:
that's
at
City
Mills
and
bid
mill.
D
D
This
is
the
same
view,
but
shows
the
different
parcels.
This
owns
some
by
the
city
and
some
by
city
mills,
the
two
buildings
that
we're
trying
to
go
between
to
connect
the
Riverwalk
is
owned
by
City
Mills
property
LLC.
So
we
have
been
negotiating
with
City
Mills
property.
For
several
years.
There
was
a
previous
owner
that
we
had
actually
before
my
time
they
had
been
working
with
to
get
an
easement
between
those
two
buildings
so
that
we
could
connect
the
Riverwalk.
D
The
property
was
sold,
so
we
kind
of
started
over
and
we've
been
working
with
them
to
get
a
easement
agreement,
there's
some
components
of
that
easement
agreement.
That
kind
of
there
was
a
glitch,
and
so
we've
been
really
working
and
negotiating
to
get
a
solution,
that's
accessible
to
both
the
city
and
city
mill
property.
D
This
first
diagram
shows
you
the
different
ownership
of
the
property.
That's
involved,
the
green
is
owned
by
City
Mills
property
LLC.
The
orange
is
owned
by
the
city
and
City
Mills
property
city
Mills
property
LLC
in
the
orange
stripe,
has
a
parking
easement
on
city
property.
So
this
is
where
we
started
and
we're
trying
to
get
an
easement
between
the
two
buildings
and
negotiate
with
City
mill
property
because
they
have
a
parking
easement
that
provides
parking
availability
to
their
development.
D
So
after
the
exchange
and
easement
agreement
on
the
next
slide,
just
shows
you
where
we
ended
up
in
this
negotiated
process.
Green
skins
as
the
city
mill,
property,
LLC
property
within
orange
stripe
is
city-owned
property
with
a
parking
easement
and
then
what
in
the
pink
color
would
be
the
easement.
That's
granted
from
city
mill,
property
LLC
to
the
city
for
the
construction
of
the
river
wall,
I'm
just
going
to
go
back.
This
is
currently
the
world
and
the
the
property
that's
situated
now
and
after
the
exchange
an
easement
agreement.
D
This
is
how
the
ownership
of
the
property
and
the
easements
will
look
on
this
same
parcel.
The
net
impact
to
this
agreement
is
revenue
to
the
city
of
a
hundred
thousand
seven
hundred
and
fifty
eight
dollars.
Easements
are
worth
money.
Property
exchange
is
worth
money,
so
the
net
agreement
is
a
hundred
thousand
seven
hundred
and
fifty
eight
dollars
to
the
city
there's
also
a
commitment.
It's
interesting
that
we
talked
about
Westville.
D
We
have
the
same
agreement
with
city
mill,
property
LLC
to
contribute
two
hundred
and
fifty
thousand
dollars
for
a
shared
parking
lot
for
both
owners.
We
will
have
dedicated
nineteen
public
parking
spaces,
and
this
will
be
accessed
for
the
Riverwalk
at
this
location
and
it
will
also
provide
the
access
for
our
parking
for
the
city
mills,
development.
D
There's
two
slides
this
one
and
the
next
one
that
shows
the
diagram
of
how
the
Riverwalk
will
be
done
in
between
the
two
buildings,
just
to
show
you
the
location
of
where
that's
going.
You
can
see
the
Riverwalk
here
going
through
the
two
buildings
and
then
it
picks
up
same
place.
This
is
the
Riverwalk
going
through
the
two
buildings
and
will
connect
to
the
existing
Riverwalk
on
the
other
side
of
city
property.
D
In
the
last
slide,
this
has
been
provided
to
us
by
Cindy
mill,
property
LLC
I.
Don't
want
to
you
to
think
that
there's
any
commitment
from
the
city
for
the
development
of
this
property,
but
this
is
what
they
intend:
the
property
to
look
like
after
the
development
and
if
Justin
wants
to
make
any
comments
just
from
City
mill
property
and
where
they
plan
us
and
move
forward
with
this
project.
I'm
sure
he'll
be
happy
to
respond
to
those
questions
as
well.
F
G
D
There's
parking
on
both
sides
of
the
city:
Mills
property:
let's
go
back
here,
you
can
see
they're
planning
to
put
parking
in
this
location
and
then
we'll
have
parking
in
this
location
here
and
so
there'll
be
two
parking
lots.
This
will
be
dedicated
for
City
Mills
and
the
public
parking
spaces
will
be
in
this
north
area.
So
where.
D
G
G
G
H
It's
my
family,
that
I
mean
our
spaces
are
not
going
to
be
said
for
City
milk
business
I
like
that
type
of
thing.
It's
not
going
to
be
designated
I
mean
it'll,
just
be
an
open
parking
lot.
So
you
know
if
there
are
25
people
that
are
there
to
use
whatever
walk
they'll,
be
able
to
use
no
space.
Okay,.
AF
Q
And
so
no
doubt
there
will
be
a
benefit
to
that
area
and
to
the
City
of
Columbus
and
as
we
move
forward
towards
redeveloping
or
developing
city
village,
I
mean
this
is
a
great
jumpstart
and
so
you've
heard
the
deputy
city
manager
mentioned
the
exchange
in
easement
agreement,
revenue
to
the
city,
a
hundred
thousand
seven
and
fifty
eight
dollars
and
and
of
course,
the
city's
commitment.
$250,000
contributions
toward
a
shared
park,
parking
lot
with
19
public
parking
spaces
were
access
to
the
Riverwalk,
and
so
we
believe
this
is
a
good
partnership.
Q
B
Q
B
Q
B
Q
I've
got
architectural
and
engineering
services;
these
are
art,
architectural
forms
and
engineer
reforms
that
we
have
an
agreement
with,
so
that
when
we
have
work
to
be
done,
we
don't
have
to
go
out
and
go
through
a
lengthy
process.
We've
already
got
them
approved
by
the
city,
and
so
we've
got
several
architectural
farms
and
several
engineering
firms
to
WRA
architects.
G
G
B
I'll
list
them
here,
they're
listed
and
their
architectural
and
engineering
services.
As
is
stated,
that's
is
a
B
and
C
state
mandated
solid
waste
disposal.
Fees

D,

F
as

G
is

H
is

which
is
a

Alliance

is

and
J
is

Is
there
any
discussion
on
any
one
of
these
items?
F
AG
504
the
engineers,
what
we're
looking
at
we
are
using
now
we're
using
different
pot
of
money
where
you
at
usually
is
called
Z
230,
because
federal
highway,
apparently
you'd
like
to
play
the
alpha-beta,
a
use,
BM
230
million
ounces,
Z
230
money.
It
hasn't
really
changed
and
say,
and
that's
more
and
you
really
need
Nova.
But
in
order
to
do
that,
it's
Annie,
it's
nee,
20
money
in
terms
of
doing
it,
but
we
had
to
get
20%
match.
AG
We
are
trying
to
work
a
deal
where
we
will
actually
construct
a
connecting
roadway
between
forbidden,
Boulevard
and
South
Lumpkin
because
they
have
folks
now
they
are
traveling
out
of
South,
limping
or
out
of
Fort
Benning
and
trying
cutting
through
their
parking
lot
to
get
back
to
Oakland
Park.
It
has
problems
referred
for
several
years,
we've
been
trying
to
work
out
a
solution
little.
AG
We
think
this
is
going
to
be
doable
and
doing
that
will
extend
that
trail
down
there
and
along
that
along
that
roadway,
which
will
allow
us
to
connect
eventually
back
to
the
Riverwalk
itself,
so
we'll
make
something
of
a
loop
from
the
Riverwalk
calling
back
up
to
the
museum
and
on
back
up
to
casita
road
along
the
following
trail.
So
just
extends
our
trail
system
more
so,
but
also
provides
us
some
access
and
some
ingress
also
as
well
that
the
infimum
you
intend
to
deal
with.
AG

Q

Madam

If
it's
councils
desire,
it
can
be
referred
to
the
board
of
Honor.
G
B
S
S
A
clarification
and
passing
this
on
the
board
of
Honor.
It
seems
to
me
that
when
we're
renaming
streets
it
is
strictly
an
honorary
deal.
We
don't
change
the
street,
they
pay
for
the
sign.
It's
typically
the
section
of
the
street
right
in
front
of
the
church
or
the

not
the

That's
correct.

Did
speak
with
mr.
Steve
Davis
about
this
and
he
said
he
had
not
had
an
opportunity
yet
to
talk
with
mr.
Bickerstaff.
The
term
actually
doesn't
expire
until
the
end
of
the
year.
So
he's
got
a
little
time
to
to
do
that,
but
he
said
he
would
get
back
with
us
and-
and
let
us
know
if
mr.
Bickerstaff
was
interested
all.
