If this is YOUR meeting, an easy way to fix this is to add a description to your video, wherever mtngs.io found it (probably YouTube).
B
You
mr.
budget
chair,
what
I
provided
today
is
an
updated
copy
of
the
FY
18
recommended
budget
review
session
schedule.
We
have
first
on
the
agenda
community
reinvestment
next
parks
and
recreation,
followed
by
human
resources
and
risk
management.
We
have
the
corner,
making
a
presentation
today,
as
well
as
a
transportation
project
update
from
our
deputy
city
manager,
Pam
Hodge,
a
vehicle
replacement
discussion
to
be
given
by
a
deputy
city
manager,
Lisa
Goodwin,
and
we
also
slated
some
time
to
discover
these
reclassifications
that
were
proposed
in
the
mayor's
recommended
budget.
B
The
followed
by
a
brief
healthcare
sup
date
from
our
Human
Resources
directory
for
Halliwell.
Also.
What
I
provided
for
Council
today
is
the
add
delete
list
based
on
the
items
that
have
been
placed
on
the
list.
So
it's
as
of
the
last
budget
review
session,
probably
where
it
stands,
is
six
to
1.01
estimated
sundown.
It
stays
I've,
also
provided
council.
The
responses
to
the
questions
and
requests
from
the
May
2nd
2017
meeting
as
it
relates
to
the
vehicle
replacement
listing
for
Public
Safety.
B
A
You
right
and
I
would
remind
the
budget
review
committee
that
because
we're
we
start
we're
starting
a
little
bit
early,
but
we
are
going
to
try
to
keep
a
brisk
pace
so
I'm
not
being
rude
I'm,
just
trying
to
keep
you
guys
to
where
you
can
get
out
of
here
before
more.
And
if
you
have
a
question
or
you
want
to
go
back
and
visit.
Something
just
just
talk
and
we'll
do
that
because
Johnson
all.
C
This
year,
I
just
wanted
to
first
show
what
revenues
reproject
for
fiscal
year
18
so
we're
looking
at
as
of
right
now,
we
still
have
not
been
notified
of
our
final
allocations
for
next
year.
We
have,
however,
been
notified
that
they've
been
approved.
We
just
don't
know
the
amount
yet
so,
although
they've
been
approved,
I
think
at
the
exact
same
amount,
that
the
federal
government
approved
them
last
year.
C
So
that's
what
we're
doing
so
for
Community
Development,
Block
Grant
funding
we're
anticipating
about
1.3
million
dollars,
which
is
the
same
as
last
year,
home
investment
partnership
program
funding,
six
hundred
forty
five
thousand,
which
is
the
same
as
last
year
as
well:
CDBG
and
home
program
income
and
carryover
funds
at
about
four
hundred.
Seventy
four
thousand
the
real
estate
part
about
139,
which
is
exactly
the
same
as
last
year,
and
we
also
have
some
program
income
out
there
that,
through
the
Neighborhood
Stabilization
program,
that
was
a
program
that
was
administered
a
few
years
back.
C
It
started
in
2008
and
this
is
the
funding
that
was
returned
to
the
city
as
part
of
that
program.
So
it's
sitting
in
the
bank
and
so
we're
looking
at
a
way
to
utilize
that
funding
this
next
fiscal
year
so
for
the
Community
Development,
Block
Grant,
as
I
stated
we're
about
1.3
million
in
entitlement
and
then
about
300,
21,000
and
projected
program,
income
and
carryover
funds
for
a
total
about
one
point:
six:
five
million.
C
C
As
of
right
now,
our
current
budgeted
employees
includes
one
director,
one
Program
Manager,
one
finance
manager,
two
Community
Reinvestment
coordinators,
one
part-time
clerical,
so
the
number
of
employees
that
are
approved
for
fiscal
year
2017
will
not
change
in
fiscal
year
2018
so
for
the
program
in
operations
with
the
CDBG
funds,
we're
looking
at
our
final
payment
to
the
housing
authority
for
the
Booker
T
Washington
Columbus,
combina
development
in
the
amount
of
$500,000.
That's
the
last
payment.
Cdbg
funds,
we've
already
expended
1
million
dollars
towards
that
project.
C
We
have
a
demolition
in
the
amount
of
$76,000
public
service
grants,
$214,000
we're
looking
at
trying
to
allocate
some
funding
towards
an
economic
development,
business
incubator
project.
We
had
a
proposal
come
in
when
they're
requesting
150,000
for
renovations
of
the
actual
incubator
space.
We
are
looking
at
reimplemented
our
project
care,
minor
home
repair
program
and
we're
allocating
three
hundred
and
seven
thousand
dollars
to
that
program
and
then,
lastly,
we've
been
approached
by
several
of
several
cities:
have
Economic
Development
small
business
revolving
loan
fund?
C
C
The
repairs
would
consist
of
minor
stuff
like
a
roof,
HVAC
some
electrical
improvements,
but
once
we
get
the
you
know,
figure
out
who's
going
to
be
possibly
running
the
program,
we'll
come
up
with
an
application
process
and
all
of
that
and
advertise
it
come
up
with
brochures
and
reach
out
to
the
elderly
and
disabled
population.
To
let
them
know
about
the
program.
Okay,.
D
C
There
are
some
things
we
have
to
look
at
on
front-end,
first,
like
their
eligibility,
so
we
have
to
make
sure
that
their
income
qualified
and
they
fall
into
the
range
which
a
lot
of
elderly
citizens
and
disabled
citizens
are
on
fixed
incomes.
So
a
lot
of
them
will
qualify
for
the
program.
Second,
we
would
have
to
look
at
the
condition
of
the
house,
because
if
it
is
a
house,
that's
too
far
gone
that
it
would
cost
more
to
fix.
You
know
if
you
have
to
have
every
item
in
there
fixed
just
to
have
an
air.
C
You
know
an
Eric
new
air
conditioner
installed.
Then
it
may
be
over
what
we
can
do
to
the
house.
You
know:
kismis,
substantial
rehab
is
different
than
the
minor
repair
so
but
yeah
there
will
be
different
things.
We
have
to
look
out
at
on
the
front
end
as
long
as
they
meet
the
minimum
qualifications,
then
they
would
be
approved
for
the
program.
Okay,.
C
On
the
next
slide
is
our
public
service
recipients.
We
did
have
another
RFP
process.
This
year
we
received
approximately
15
applications
from
agencies
throughout
Columbus
through
that
process.
These
are
the
recipients
that
and
the
approximate
amount
of
funding
that
they'll
be
allocated,
so
we
went
ahead
and
with
the
home
for
good
the
COC,
because
that's
a
requirement
for
the
the
city
to
receive
all
their
homeless
funding
through
the
ESG
and
ship
programs.
C
We
allocated
seventy-five
thousand
dollars
to
home
for
good
good
for
that
COC
collaborative
Afghan,
coordinated,
Entry
Program,
which
is
a
25
thousand
dollar
increase
from
last
year,
direct
service
corporation
Meals
on
Wheels
program,
twenty
five
thousand
homeless,
Resource
Network
for
a
homeless
program.
Twenty
five
thousand
mercy
meds
for
a
medical
program
that
they
have
applied
for
seventeen
five
scuse.
C
The
the
way
that
our
RFP
process
is
the
maximum
for
the
competitive
money
is
twenty
five
thousand
dollars,
and
it's
based
on
your
score.
So
the
ones
with
the
highest
world
would
get
the
twenty
five
thousand
and
then
it
would
decrease
ranking
in
the
order
that
what
their
scores
were
they
did
score
the
highest
on
the
application.
So
that's
the
reason
they
got
the
maximum
allocation
of
twenty-five.
The
reason
we
cap
it
at
twenty
five
is
because
our
public
service
grant
funding
is
capped.
C
We're
only
allowed
to
allocate
fifteen
percent
of
our
entire
CDBG
portion
to
public
services
on
an
annual
basis,
so
the
maximum
amount
of
money
that
we're
able
to
allocate
is
right
at
two
hundred
thousand
dollars,
and
so
because
of
that-
and
we
have
so
many
application-
you
know,
applicants
we're
trying
to
make
it
where
we're
able
to
provide
more
services
to
the
public.
So
that's
reason
we
for
that.
Twenty
five
thousand
dollar
cap
on
there,
okay.
C
The
boys
and
girls,
twenty
five
are
seventeen
five
for
their
after-school
program.
Urban
League
put
a
proposal
in
for
a
housing
counseling
program
and
they
would
get
twelve
five.
The
Urban
League
also
put
an
application
in
for
a
used
stem
program,
another
twelve
five
and
the
Parks
and
Recreation
Department
is
looking
at
trying
to
do
a
learn
to
swim
program,
and
so
this
we
allocated
them
twenty
five
thousand
for
that
program,
and
then
we
set
aside
four
thousand
two
hundred
dollars
for
fair
housing
activities,
which
is
a
requirement
of
hood
that
we
do
those
annually.
C
Just
a
little
bit
about
that
small
business
incubator
program
that
I
was
referring
to
earlier.
The
proposal
was
submitted
by
Columbus
makes
it.
The
funding
would
be
used
to
rehabilitate
this
current
space
that
they
occupy
at
the
River
Valley
Regional
Commission,
and
they
would
convert
that
into
a
small
business
incubator,
virtual
office
space
and
then
the
small
business
revolving
loan
fund
program.
Those
would
be
just
small
loans
that
would
be
issued
to
businesses
within
our
redevelopment
areas.
So
a
quick.
C
C
You
know
business
program,
you
know
all
that
kind
of
stuff
to
try
to
help
them
with
the
loans,
but
they'll
be
able
to
stay
in
this.
It's
an
actual
program
where
they
would
actually
graduate
from
that
program.
They
would
be
able
to
use
this
space
educate
people
who
are
trying
to
start
up
businesses
on
the
process,
and
you
know
for
a
certain
period
of
time,
so
that
eventually
they
would
be
able
to
relocate
out
of
the
incubator
and
be
able
to
move
on
to
actually
out
in
the
business.
Okay.
A
I
have
because
I
think
the
the
original
the
inspiration
for
the
business
one-stop
shop
was
when
we
saw
in
Jacksonville,
and
they
did
provide
on-site
space
for
people
to
have
access
to
folks
like
like
score
and
senior
retire
executives
to
help
them
actually
get
the
proposals
ready
and
the
applications
ready
and
build
that
business.
All
right.
C
I
think
it's
probably
a
similar
program
that
they
would
just
be
utilizing
that
space
that
they're
creating
to
create
a
bigger
business
which
would
help
create
jobs.
Just.
A
C
And
again
we're
looking
at
doing
the
project
care
minor
home
repair
program.
Again,
the
funding
would
be
used
for
for
minor
repairs,
income
eligible
eligible
elderly
and
disabled
homeowners,
as
I
was
saying
earlier,
types
of
replacements,
HVAC
installation,
new
roof
plumbing
and
electrical,
and
then
we're
looking
at
trying
to
do
about
ten
thousand
dollars
per
home
for
the
repairs
and
then
the
booker
t
washington,
columbus
commons,
five
hundred
thousand.
C
That
would
just
be
another
payment
made
to
the
housing
authority
that
funding
was
used
for
site
work,
improvements
of
that
development
and
then,
lastly,
the
demolition
of
wider
structures
throughout
columbus
in
that
panel,
through
our
cogent
inspections
department
for
our
home
investment
partnership
program,
the
administration
is
a
hundred
and
two
thousand
dollars
and
then
the
affordable
housing
development
is
what
the
rest
of
the
funding
would
be
utilized
for.
Neighborworks
columbus
submitted
a
proposal
to
develop
due
to
duplexes
in
the
Bellwood
neighborhood
for
rent
to
low-income
households
and
neighborhoods
columbus.
C
As
for
the
real
estate
and
the
desks,
the
general
funding
funded
portion,
the
administration
is
about
forty
eight
thousand
dollars
and
the
operations
is
about
ninety
one.
It
primarily
the
funding
for
real
set
comes
for.
The
real
estate
is
just
for
getting
the
property
appraisal,
attorney
fees
in
relation
to
selling
leasing
and
disposed
city
properties,
there's
also
a
building
maintenance
being
there
for
the
legacy
tears.
C
The
last
one
I
want
to
speak
about
is
the
Neighborhood
Stabilization
program.
Is
the
program
income
we're
looking
at
trying
to
utilize
this
funding,
because
this
funding
came
from
2008
during
the
housing
and
economic
recovery
program
that
was
through
the
George
Bush
administration,
and
the
purpose
of
the
program
was
to
assist
during
the
housing
crisis
in
acquiring
foreclosed
or
abandoned
properties
and
putting
them
back
on
the
market
and
trying
to
sell
them.
C
But
one
of
the
activities
that
you
can
use
Neighborhood
Stabilization
program
funding
for
is
land
banking
activities,
so
with
the
city
already
having
an
active
land
bank,
but
the
problem
that
they
have
is
they
don't
have
the
resources
to
run
that
land
bank
or
acquire
any
properties?
So
we
would
like
to
use
this
NSP
program
income
to
allow
the
land
bank
to
do
their
land
banking
activities,
which
would
consist
of
acquisition
of
abandoned
or
foreclosed
upon
properties.
C
C
They
can
redevelop
the
demolished
or
vacant
properties,
so
they
actually
have
the
authority
to
use
the
funding
to
actually
put
a
new
house
out
there
and
the
properties
can
be
held
by
the
land
bank
for
up
to
ten
years.
So
if
they
acquire
property
and
they
demolish
it,
they
put
it
on
the
market
and
don't
sell
right
away
it's
okay,
but
they
do
have
to
show
that
they're
actively
trying
to
dispose
of
that
property.
So
as
an
example
of
land
banking
activity.
C
So
the
land
bank
could
acquire
some
abandoned
property
and
in
the
City
Village
area
was
these
NSP
funds.
They
can
use
the
NSP
funds.
Demolish
that
blighted
property.
The
land
bank
can
donate
or
sell
the
property
to
avocadoes
an
example,
and
then
habitat
can
develop
a
new
infill
house
on
the
parcel
it
can
be
done
with
a
private
developer.
It
can
be
done
through
any
nonprofit
developers.
C
So
if
the
private
developer
came
forward
and
says,
I
want
to
redevelop
this
property
I
need
assistance
getting
it,
they
could
use
the
funding
to
help
acquire
the
property,
demolish
the
property
and
then
sell
the
property
to
a
private
developer.
So
it
could
be
private
or
nonprofit
developers
actually
acquiring
the
property
at
the
end.
C
So
just
to
kind
of
give
you
an
overview
right
now.
Muscogee
County
has
twenty
one
hundred
and
fifty-three
properties,
which
equate
to
five
point.
Four
million
dollars
in
delinquencies.
The
enterprise
zone
itself
has
520
properties
at
about
1.4
million
in
delinquencies.
City
Village
has
31
properties
at
approximately
24,000.
We're
still
has
approximately
hundred
forty
six
properties
at
two
hundred.
Eighty
six
thousand,
the
Bellwood
area,
71
properties
at
122
thousand
and
the
liberty
district
has.
Twenty-One
properties
is
approximately
one
hundred
thirty
three
thousand,
so
the
NSP
funding
through
the
land
bank
can
be
used
to
redevelop.
A
E
E
E
C
We're
working
out
the
tax
foreclosure
process
right
now,
I
did
go
down
to
make
in
and
visit
with
their
land
bank
they're
one
of
the
best-known
land
banks
in
Georgia
to
see
how
their
programs
worked,
and
they
told
me
a
little
bit
how
their
tax
foreclosure
process
works.
So
our
first
step
is
to
work
with
the
Tax
commissioner's
office
to
determine
ways
that
we're
able
to
work
with
them
as
far
as
being
able
for
the
land
bank
to
acquire
those
properties.
C
They
also
have
something
from
the
school
board
that
that
gives
them
permission
to
forgive
that
split
board
taxes
as
well
use
have
peple
an
MOA
with
a
school
board.
So
those
are
things
were
working
on
details
right
now
through
the
land
bank
to
try
to
implement,
but
if
we
can
get
that
figured
out
the
Tax
commissioner's
office
and
this
money
will
assist
us
and
being
able
to
go
through
full.
With
all
of
this,
but
the
money
doesn't
necessarily
have
to
be
used
for
tax
delinquent
properties.
C
So
if
there's
a
property,
that's
just
abandoned
its
painted
taxes,
but
it
could
be
on
our
foreclosed
our
list
for
demo.
We
could
still
use
the
money
to
acquire
that
property
as
well.
It
doesn't
necessarily
have
to
be
attached
to
the
point.
We
just
have
to
prove
that
it's
either
a
foreclosed
house
or
a
vacant
house.
G
David,
thank
you.
Mister
budget,
chair
or
a
director
Johnson,
really
glad
that
you
spent
some
time
in
the
one
area
about
thee
and
dealing
with
the
land
bank
I,
for
one
would
really
like
to
see
some
progress
there
and
I
think
we
could
do
a
lot
of
good
things
in
our
community
and
moving
forward,
and
certainly
the
Tax
Commissioner
will
have
to
be
involved.
I
hope
that
everybody
can
get
to
the
table
and
sit
down
and
work
all
that
out.
One
of
the
questions
I
had
that
I
have
is
I
know
in
the
past.
B
G
C
G
That
one
and
that
one
block
the
other
thing
I
wanted
to
mention
to
you,
looks
like
every
year.
I
guess
you
know
this
money
comes
from
the
federal
government,
but
end
of
the
day
is
still
it's
still
taxpayers,
money,
I
guess
at
times
their
priorities,
change
with
the
funding
that
looks
like
we're
doing
more
and
more
I.
Guess
you
call
it
public
service
type
programs
now
than
we
have
in
the
past.
C
C
The
way
that
we
try
to
do
it
is
competitive
because
there's
so
many
social
service
agencies
out
there
that
really
need
help.
So
we
go
through
the
RFP
process
and
we
have
our
internal
staff,
along
with
our
c-dac
members,
review
and
rate
all
of
the
applications,
and
we
score
them
so
this
year
we're
looking
at
a
little
bit
of
an
increase,
because
we
have
some
program
income.
That's
going
to
be
that
we're
receding
this
year,
which
would
increase
our
cap,
but
it's
only
going
to
increase
our
cap
by
about
$15,000.
C
C
G
I
do
I
do
want
I
share
the
same
concerns
as
the
budget
chair
I
would
like
the
executive
management
to
administration
to
come
back
at
some
point,
come
and
help
us
understand
how
these
programs
are
working
in
our
community
that
they're
not
overlapping,
that
they're
not
duplicating
efforts
or
taken
away
from
each
other.
You
know
it's
kind
of
a
competitive
thing.
We
just
I'd
like
to
see
an
update
in
the
future
on
that
and
mr.
H
But
when
you
asked
that
question
you
said
where
it
looks
like
doing
a
bit
more
of
community.
What
I
don't
know
your
exact
words,
but
I
was
sitting
here
just
making
notes
about
CDBG
and
how
what
she's
presented
to
you
is
really
touching
the
entire
community,
and
you
know
if
I
could
just
hear
Mountain
quickly.
H
I
just
want
to
say
it
shows
that
we're
partnering
with
the
Housing
Authority,
with
the
booklet
you
wash
and
as
we've
done
with
Baker
village
and
P
by
Peabody
and
others,
but
it
also
shows
you
that
we
are
continuing
with
demolitions
were
necessary.
It
talks
about
the
land
banked
and
opportunities
that
she's
presented
before
you
we're
looking
at
business
incubator.
We
did
these
things
years
ago,
but
not
in
recent
years
and
looking
at
revolving
loans.
H
We
did
these
things,
but
because
money
disappeared
or
was
no
longer
there,
we
we
have
to
stop
doing
those
things,
but
the
miner
home
repairs.
We
used
to
do
those
things,
and
you
know
the
homeless
programs
we've
expanded.
What
we
are
doing
with
homeless
programs,
we're
looking
at
youth
programs
with
Boys
and
Girls
Club.
We
haven't
done
those
kinds
of
things
in
recent
years:
housing
counseling
we've
done,
but
but
we're
coming
back
strong
with
that
and
learn
to
swim.
H
But
we
are
touching
nonprofit
agencies,
elderly,
disabled,
low
income,
youth,
whole
gamut
is
what
she's
presented
and
so
I
think
it's.
You
know
because
we're
her
leadership
and
the
ability
to
identify
those
dollars,
because
we
reduce
the
staff
down
to
basically
two
people.
Three
people,
maybe,
and
we
were
able
to
retrieve
the
staff
back
and
ramp
up
and
get
to
where
we
are
today
so
I'm
really
proud
of
that
and
and
what
we're
doing
community-wide
will
CDBG
dollars.
G
And
that's
great
I
appreciate
you
sharing
that
with
us.
My
city
manager,
director
Johnson,
the
one
thing
I
wanted
with
I
guess
my
last
question
in
looking
at
the
overall
scope
here
and
it's
okay,
these
things
that
we're
doing
it's
all
good
but
I,
think
about
the
crime
prevention
program
and
how
we
work
there
and
what
we've
done
to
build
credibility
and
accountability
and
being
able
to
monitor
these
programs
and
make
sure
that
they
are
truly
beneficial
and
they
are
doing
exactly
what
they
say
they're
doing
in
meeting
the
mission.
G
C
C
With
sub
recipients
that
receive
the
funding,
we
monitor
them
actually
on
a
monthly
basis
as
they
submit
their
draws.
We
actually
do
site
inspections.
We
actually
review
every
document
that
they
submit
to
us.
They
were
required
to
submit
beneficiary
data
they're
required
to
submit
invoices
backup
documentation
on
before
we
provide
them
one,
because
it's
all
a
reimbursement.
So
we
don't
just
give
them
the
funding
on
the
front
end.
They
utilize
they
spend
the
money,
and
then
they
ask
us
for
reimbursement,
so
every
month
were
reimbursed
reimbursing
their
request
about
this
time.
C
Every
year
in
May,
we
do
my
actual
monitor,
visit
visits
to
the
facilities
where
we
ask
to
see
their
files
of
all
of
their
all
of
their
clients,
so
that
we
can
verify
their
income
verify
that
they're
receiving
the
proper
services
that
were
per
the
grant
agreement.
We
actually
have
a
contract
to
so
every
year.
When
we
get
this
funding
approved
by
HUD,
we
go
and
enter
into
an
individual
contract
binding
on
track
with
each
one
of
these
agencies
as
well.
H
H
Maybe
I
will
have
to
share
some
of
them
with
you
to
show
you
how
detailed
they
are
about
phantoms
in
every
category
and
and
then
they've
got
to
respond
back
to
clear
up
those
findings
and
then
they
may,
if
they're,
tin,
Fannin's
they
clear
up.
Seven
and
three
would
still
be
open
because
they're
not
clear
and
they
got
to
go
back
and
clear.
Those
three
up,
and
so
it's
a
process,
and
so
the
feds
are
on
them
and
so
they've
got
to
be
only
agencies
that
we
are
grant
to.
For
that
reason,
you
know
and.
G
I
really
appreciate
you
going
in
detail
and
sharing
and
I
think
that's
very
only
educational
enlightening
for
the
citizens
who
are
watching
this
broadcast
now,
but
I
think
as
a
city
manager
said
being
proud
of
what
we're
doing
in
our
community.
That's
the
key
part
of
it.
It
all
goes
together.
It
all
blends
together
and
and
I
appreciate.
Y'all.
You
said
you
had
a
limited
staff.
G
I
J
I
C
C
So
they
have
a
list
of
everything
that
we
can
use
the
funding
for
all
the
regulations
pertaining
to
that
funding,
and
so
they
just
say:
here's
your
money
and
you
tell
us
what
you're
going
to
do,
but
we
do
that
through
citizen
participation
so
like
when
we
created
our
consolidated
plan,
which
just
was
adopted
last
year
by
HUD
we
had.
We
have
public
meetings
with
citizens,
we
have
public
meetings
with
individual
agencies
and
we
get
all
of
their
input
prior
to
us
deciding
what
we're
going
to
use
this
funding
for.
C
So
when
we
have
that
five
year
plan
that
we
do
every
five
years.
This
annual
plan
is
done
every
year
during
the
budget
cycle
and
that's
where
we
actually
take
items
that
were
addressed
in
that
five-year
plan.
We
pull
them
out
and
we
implement
on
that
year.
So,
technically
what
our
5-year
plan
says
every
year
we're
supposed
to
be
doing
something
out
of
that
plan.
So
that's
where
the
actual
programs
come
from
just.
I
Ella's
great,
the
only
one
I
do
have
some
concerns
over
I'm,
not
a
fan
of
the
business
loan
programs.
I,
don't
think
we're
a
bank
I,
don't
think
we
ought
to
be
acting
like
one.
It's
reviewing
loan
proposals
and
following
through
with
collection
cycles
and
what
happens
if
there's
a
default
and
workout
schedules
and
as
the
money
being
spent
like
it,
was
in
the
loan
app
and
all
that
I.
I
Just
unless
the
mayor
pro-tem
wants
the
person
to
go
that
program,
she
explained
her
I
trust
her
to
do
it
whatever
I
said
okay,
but
that
that's
my
only
concern
I'm,
not
a
fan
of
a
loan
programs.
I
just
don't
think
we
ought
to
be
in
the
banking
business,
but
but
everything
else
looks
really
really
good.
Well,.
I
I
I
K
To
questions
miss
Johnson,
these
delinquent
properties
that
you
had
listed,
the
ones
that
you
have
listed
for
the
various
sections
of
the
community.
These
are
properties
that
have
delinquent
taxes,
but
are
not
necessarily
blighted
properties
right,
correct,
and
so
these
are
the
properties
that
we
might
have
seen
being
sold
on
the
courthouse
steps.
Yes,.
E
C
We
would
actually
check
we're
trying
to
focus
on
our
redevelopment
areas,
but
it's
something
because
the
land
bank-
really
you
want
to
utilize
it
to
acquire
properties
that
you
have
a
some
sort
that
you
could
possibly
have
a
future
use
for,
because
you
know
you
really
don't
want
to
acquire
it
and
just
sit
there
for
10
years,
if
possible.
So
we
were
strategically
into
the
land
bank
and
we
were
will
be
working
closely
with
the
land
thing.
C
We
strategically
look
at
all
these
properties
that
do
have
tax
liens
on
them,
determine
which
ones
that
are
in
neighborhoods
that
we're
looking
at
revitalizing
or
even
the
ones
outside
minute.
It
doesn't
really
matter
as
long
as
we
feel
that
there's
a
need
that
it
can
be
that
we
can
buy
it
and
we
can
turn
around
and
something
can
be
done
with
it.
So
we're
just
happy
we're
going
to
have
to
strategically
look
at
everything
just
to
see
which
ones
we
might
be
able
to
acquire
and
actually
be
able
to
do
something
with
it.
So.
L
K
Have
need
for
property
in
that
particular.
We
really
have
need
for
property
in
that
particular
business,
and
the
other
thing
that
I
wanted
to
ask.
You
I've
been
listening
as
I
guess
most
people
have
to
the
budget
talks
on
the
federal
level
and
some
of
the
conversation
about
particularly
CDBG
money
that
may
be
not
forthcoming
from
the
federal
government.
K
Are
there
other
pots
of
money
like
that
that
you
administer
that
you
may
be
a
little
concerned
about
whether
or
not
the
federal
government
is
going
to
continue
to
to
send
that
and
I
know
that
you've
talked
about
some
CDBG
money?
If
that
particular
portion
of
the
budget,
the
federal
budget
goes
through,
is
that
impact
going
to
be
in
FY,
18
or
19?
It.
C
C
K
C
A
M
Well,
you
have
done
a
great
job.
I
can
remember
when
we
had
way
more
people
and
in
that
department,
I,
remember
the
cuts
that
we
had
to
make
in
money.
So
you've
really
done
a
lot.
I'm
really
glad
to
see
this
project
here
and
how
you
direct
the
funding
to
that.
There
are
a
lot
of
senior
citizens
who
just
can't
afford
head
repairs.
We
have
older
homes,
but
minor
repairs
we'll
be
able
to
keep
them
in
their
homes,
and
so
you
have
done
it.
You've
done
a
great
job
Lord.
Thank
you.
Thanks.
G
Miss
city
manager,
since
we're
on
the
subject,
I
got
a
request
for
you.
Would
you
be
gracious
enough?
I
know
councillor
Huff
and
I
talked
about
this
a
long
time
ago,
and
you
were
really
good
about
making
something
happen.
There
was
a
property
talk,
I'm
talking
about
demolitions,
there
was
a
property
on
6th
and
7th
I
believe,
and
there
was
some
asbestos
matters
with
it,
but
you
were
real,
diligent
and
making
sure
that
that
property
was
taken
care
of
there's
another
property
next
to
it
off
the
road.
It's
been
there
for
a
long
time.
G
Councillor
huff
and
I
just
brought
it
to
my
attention.
It's
been
there
for
a
long
time,
but
since
we
were
proving
funding
here
with,
you
be
kind
enough
to
take
a
good
look
at
that
property
and
see
maybe
where
it
could
fall
on
that
list,
especially
with
all
the
great
things
going
on
down
in
Liberty
district.
If
you
go
by
then
take
a
look
at
you
might
want
to
talk
about.
I
will
thank
you
and
I.
B
Just
wanted
to
sort
of
clarify
my
response
to
councillor
Davis
earlier
regarding
the
demolition
money
when
I
stated
that
we
have
properties
and
the
CDBG
fun
as
well
as
the
general
fund.
If
we
have
you
CDBG
monies
to
demo
the
property,
that's
why
it's
in
the
CDBG
fun,
so
that
would
come
from
CDBG
funding
and
then
the
general
fund
properties
that
we
have
demo.
That
would
come
from
inspections
in
code
and
then
for
the
maintenance
and
upkeep
of
both
the
CDBG
property
and
the
general
fund
property
that
is
contracted
out
of
Public
Works.
A
Thank
you,
alright,
miss
Johnson,
thank
you
and,
by
the
way,
I
would
urge
all
of
you
I
know.
I
went
attended
the
awards
and
then
I
went
this
year
to
the
kickoff
of
City's
week
and
it
it
really
is
an
eye-opener,
see
just
how
many
partners
we
touch
through
that
office
in
this
community
and
how
many
people
they
actually
had
some
folks
stand
up
and
give
sort
of
a
testimonial
on
how
they
have
benefited
from
some
of
the
programs.
A
C
N
K
J
N
As
I
said,
this
is
just
this
next
slide
is
just
for
before
school,
for
who
only
need
that
program
in
the
morning.
The
next
slide
is,
if
you
have
a
parent
who
needs
before
and
after
school,
meaning
that
they
they
need
us
to
help
in
the
mornings
and
then
their
child
needs
somewhere
to
go
after
school.
These
are
the
same
rates
and,
as
I
said
before,
each
slide
is
the
same
and
the
fact
that
it
represents
their
annual
income.
N
A
N
N
It
also
gives
you,
the
drop
in
rate
or
drop
in
rate,
means
that
don't
need
a
care
or
child
care
all
the
time
every
once
in
a
while,
I've
got
something
as
a
parent
and
I
need
to
drop
my
child
off.
So
that's
your
drop-in
rate.
So
that's
what
they
would
pay
for
one
day
and,
as
I
said
before,
we're
the
only
agency
that
income
based
everyone
else
has
that
set
fee.
N
A
The
only
reason
I
asked
because
I
you
know
we
and
I
voted
against
this
last
time,
but
this
is
a
years
of
a
year's
worth
of
notice.
In
my
mind
that
we
can't
continue
at
the
rates
that
we're
currently
charging.
So
I
am
inclined
to
support
this
this
year.
I
just
I
just
want
reassurance
that
we
are
still
doing
what
we
can
to
cover
a
sector
of
the
community
that
can't
otherwise
find
childcare.
A
N
Sir,
that's
correct
and
if
you
look
at
our
weekly
rate
right
here
in
comparison
to
other
agencies,
our
lowest
rate
would
be
$27
and
you
can
see
that
far
below
the
next
closest
to
us,
which
is
45,
and
so
that
would
be
your
lowest
income
bracket
for
a
one
child
in
need
of
after-school
care
or
before
school
care,
and
so
that
$27
in
line
you
can
see
the
most
expensive
is
115
dollars.
And
so
we
do
offset
that
pretty
far.
N
So
yes,
sir
okay,
the
next
thing
that
we'd
like
to
discuss
disappeared
is
a
proposal
in
the
increase
of
ours
at
the
Columbus
Aquatic
Center.
We
are
not
asking
for
any
additional
funding.
We
are
going
to
maintain
I
apologize
because
it's
not
on
the
screen,
we're
going
to
maintain
and
use
the
same
budget
we
are
currently
funded
at.
N
Since
our
time
changed
a
little
bit
today,
they
were
not
able
to
join
us,
but
several
of
our
commission
members
were
going
to
join
us
at
Council
today,
because
this
is
sort
of
the
agreement
that
we
have
come
to
in
our
meetings.
That
we've
had.
Is
that
we'd
really
like
to
be
offers
able
to
offer
something
additional
we're
trying
to
go
back
to
those
morning
times?
N
We
might
perhaps
be
able
to
get
some
of
our
adult
swimmers
back
in
those
folks
who
work
honestly
that
have
a
hard
time
being
able
to
come
during
the
day
and
then
our
later
times
in
the
evenings.
We
are
really
busy
with
our
younger
swimmers
and
our
younger
children,
and
so
it's
very
hard
to
get
a
lot
of
those
groups
in
and
what
what
you.
N
What
you
will
see
here
is
that
the
current
current
schedule
is
8
to
7
Monday
through
Friday
and
on
Saturdays,
it's
10:00
to
3:00,
with
our
current
operating
hours
of
60,
and
what
we're
asking
for
going
forward
is
that
we
would
change
that
just
slightly
Mondays,
Tuesdays
and
Thursdays.
We
would
open
2
hours
earlier
in
the
day.
N
That
would
help
us
pick
up
some
of
those
older
athletes
that
would
like
to
come
in
before
they
get
get
off
to
work
for
the
day,
and
it
would
also
give
us
an
hour
longer
arm
in
the
evening
and
that's
twofold,
because
we're
trying
to
work
with
all
of
our
user
groups,
meaning
that
we're
trying
to
work
with
the
public
and
all
ages
of
that.
We're
also
trying
to
work
with
the
schools
and
we're
also
trying
to
work
with
the
to
local
swim
groups
that
we
currently
have.
N
N
A
A
My
hopes
and
I
probably
has
the
rest
of
counsels
too,
when
they
made
their
report
one
of
the
reports
they
got
from
somebody
at
USA
Swimming
or
something
indicated
that
for
a
community
our
size
and
our
diversity
in
a
facility
like
ours,
it
should
be
able
to
attain
self-sustaining
levels
of
revenue
and
I
got
to
tell
you
that
was
very
encouraging,
because
we
first
started
talking
about
it:
a
Nana,
Torian
thats.
What
we
were
told
is
that
eventually,
through
proper
management
and
through
working
it
in
advertising
and
marketing,
it
would
be
able
to
be
self-sustaining.
A
J
P
A
N
That's
that's
all,
as
the
in
regards
to
the
Columbus
Aquatic
Center,
like
miss
Goodwin,
said
our
Commission
does
support
it
and
I
apologize
they're
unable
to
be
here,
but
the
time
change
sort
of
through
them.
But
they
do
support
it
because
we
have
been
very
successful
in
working
together
to
try
to
move
us
forward
in
a
way
that
we
can
benefit
the
whole
community
trying
to
serve
all
the
user
groups.
N
And
we
are
starting
to
see
the
successes
of
that
and
we're
very
excited
as
we
move
forward
to
being
able
to
reach
a
greater
potential
with
our
facility
and
gain
traction
as
we
as
the
Department
have
said,
pretty
much
the
whole
time.
We've
just
got
to
get
the
right
people
in
the
right
places
and
then
begin
to
start
to
get
some
momentum
and
so
I'm
happy
to
say
that
we
look
like
we're
going
in
the
positive
direction
and
we'll
really
start
to
build
some.
N
Not
necessarily
a
lot
of
them
are
still
have
budgets
greater
than
ours
and
I.
Think
for
us
we're
trying
to
be
tentative
about
how
we
select
those
hours
and
make
sure
that
we
can
fully
fund
everything
that
we
want,
and
so
I
know
as
a
department
working
with
the
Commission
that
what
we've
looked
at
is
let's
take
baby
steps.
N
If
you
will,
let's
make
sure
that
we
can
cover
what
we've
asked
for
and
I
say
that,
because
of
what
I
said
momentarily
about
the
fact
that
we
haven't
had
a
director
we
haven't
had
programs
like
we'd
like
to
and
that's
going
to
cost
us
programs
find
supplies
and
things
of
that
nature
or
going
to
come
at
a
cost.
Now
they
will
also
come
hopefully
at
a
positive
revenue,
a
greater
positive
revenue
and
so
until
we're
able
to
get
all
those
components
as
they
are
now
just
gotten
in
place.
N
D
D
A
G
Browder,
we
really
really
appreciate
all
the
hard
work
and
efforts
and
it
sounds
like
we're
moving
in
a
in
the
right
direction
and
in
a
positive
direction.
That's
good
news,
and
but
if
nm
will
ask
you
maybe
a
broad
question
if
you
really
want
to
put
a
shot
of
adrenaline
in
the
program
and
just
ramp
it
up
and
get
the
marketing
going
really
getting
ours
where
it
needs
to
go
and
in
creating
good
things
and
getting
all
the
members
back
the
ones
that
we
lost
in
doing
that?
G
N
Would
really
depend
on
how
many
hours
were
wanting
to
operate
that
goes
back
to
what
the
department
has
always
said
and
keeping
in
line
with
the
numbers
that
we
predicted
previously.
So
it's
based
on
what
the
community
is
asking
for
and
how
many
hours,
just
as
the
chairman
here
mentioned
a
moment
ago,
it's
not
based
on
a
set
number
of
hours
per
set
dollar,
obviously,
but
for
us
it
would
be
what
how
many
hours
are.
We
asked
to
operate
the
facility
and
that
would
equivalent
to
a
dollar
figure,
to
be
honest
with
you.
Well.
G
Would
you
do
us
a
favor
at
some
point
as
you'll
continue
to
move
forward
and
you
work
with
a
commission?
Could
you
kind
of
explore
that
in
general
and
maybe
give
us
a
snapshot
we're
into
the
future?
We
can
go
to
continue
to
take
more
positive
steps
and
to
support
your
efforts
of
parks
and
recs
efforts
and
I.
N
Certainly
think
so,
and
I
certainly
see
it
as
it's
something
that,
in
a
year's
time,
we'll
certainly
be
able
to
come
back
and
give
you
a
much
better
answer
at
that
and
it's
a
situation
where
we
need
all
the
the
pieces
of
the
puzzle.
If
you
will
in
place
meaning
we
need
all
the
staff
to
be
in
place
because
there's
a
cost
associated
with
that,
we
need
to
be
able
to
buy
all
the
program.
Supplies
there's
a
cost
with
that.
N
But
that
will
also
allow
us
the
opportunity
to
offer
those
additional
programs
which
will
bring
in
hopefully
additional
membership,
not
just
people
attending
these
classes,
but
that
they
come
to
the
pools.
They
see
the
positives
and
they
see
the
benefits
of
it
and
they
become
members.
And
that's
what
we're
finding
is
that
as
we
offer
programs
and
classes
that
those
people
are
returning
and
that's
what
we
want,
but
it
sort
of
starts
as
just
like
any
anyone
when
you
go
and
try
something
for
the
first
time.
G
N
Going
at
home
next,
we
have
not
been
approved,
but
we
always
like
to
make
mention
so
that
it
is
known
what
we
are
in
need
of
in
our
department.
It's
been
a
number
of
years
since
we've
been
able
to
get
any
capital
requests
and
as
any
department,
we're
a
general
fund
budget.
N
So
we
don't
have
the
ability
to
receive
funds
from
any
other
funds,
except
for
general
funds,
and
so
I'll
go
through
very
quickly,
but
just
so,
it
is
fair
to
mention
on
the
items
that
we
are
needed
and
I
will
say
there
are
a
lot
of
things
not
listed
on
here.
These
are
more
bare
necessity.
You
really
really
need
to
have
type
things
more
over
than
luxuries
if
you
will
or
things
that
we
just
like
to
have
these
are
bare-bones.
N
These
are
my
guys
and
our
guys
getting
out
there
day-to-day
and
getting
the
job
done
kind
of
tools,
and
so,
if
you
will
I'll
just
go
through
very
quickly,
but
the
first
area
is
our
division
of
parks
and
services.
So
this
is
our
area
that
maintains
all
of
our
ball
fields.
Any
of
our
parks
we're
in
need
of
a
vehicle.
You
can
see
the
mowers,
25
Moore's
for
baggers
paint
machines
to
paint
the
lines
on
the
fields
ball
conditioners.
We
need
six
of
those.
N
We
need
golf
carts
to
carry
materials
around
these
larger
parks
that
we
work
in
two
additional
Gangrel
mowers,
so
that
when
we
cut
the
grass
such
as
that
Woodruff
in
places
like
that-
and
it
sounds
Commons-
it's
done
in
a
correct
way,
so
it
doesn't
damage
the
grass
and
a
narrator
as
well
to
help
us
condition
the
field
additional
funding
or
request
capital
request
for
park.
Services
includes
a
new
trailers.
N
All
of
our
equipment
is
in
need
of
repair
and
replace
placement,
and
so
we're
asking
for
twenty
trailers
a
tiller,
a
ball
machine,
vertical
cutter
side,
cutters,
tractors,
chemical
sprayers
and
Bush,
hug
mowers,
and
so
the
total
of
capital
requested
for
park
services.
This
year
was
1.5
essentially
for
their
division.
Ellington.
N
A
A
How
and
I
don't
want
to
put
you
on
the
spot,
because
I
know
you
need
them,
and
you
don't
want
to
make
me
think
you
don't
need
them
that
bad,
but
how?
How
critical
is
it
getting
with
the
mowers
and
the
system
in
the
machinery
that
we
have
to
be
able
to
handle
all
that
you
guys
have
on
your
play?
Well,.
P
N
Have
our
crews
that
go
out
and
cut
on
the
larger
parks
and
those
are
our
correction
crews,
our
inmate
crews?
We
may
get
four
or
five
guys
on
a
crew,
and
this
has
been
mentioned
before,
but
we
may
get
four
or
five
guys
on
one
of
those
correction
crews.
We
may
only
have
one
lawnmower
for
that
entire
crew,
and
so
that
means
that
we
have
folks
that
can't
go
out.
You
know
we
put
them
on
weed
eaters,
because
we
have
that's
the
only
thing
we
can.
N
We
can
put
them
on
and
so
they're
cutting
these
larger
parks
with
weed
eaters
and
one
mower
and
what
happens
if
that
mower
goes
out?
Well,
they
have
to
share
with
another
fruit
and-
and
so
that's
the
only
way
we
can
get
it
done,
because
we
just
don't
have
the
equipment
anymore
and
we're
a
department
that
right
away
if
right
away,
get
something
new,
they
hand
it
down
to
us
and
we're
grateful.
Don't
get
me
wrong.
N
H
H
If
I
may,
certainly
one
thing,
I've
asked
finance
staff
to
do
and
perhaps
what
we
should
have
been
doing
in
previous
fiscal
years,
but
with
reserve
fund
balance
situations
with
not
in
Parks
and
Rec,
excluding
not
considering
salary
savings.
They've
come
in
considerably
under
budget
in
their
operating
portions
of
the
budget,
hundreds
of
thousands
of
dollars
I
believe
if
they
had
done
like,
let's
say
Public
Safety
or
some
others
not
talking
about
salary
savings.
H
If
they
had
come
and
said
city
manager,
council
we've
got
we're
going
to
come
in
seven
hundred
thousand
dollars
under
in
our
operating
budget.
Not
considering
salary
savings,
we'd
like
to
purchase
15
mowers,
I
think
you
probably
would
have
said
it.
Yes,
I'm
speculating,
but
there
could
be
an
opportunity,
as
we
close
out
this
fiscal
year,
not
considering
salary
savings
that
they
will
be
under
a
budget
in
other
operating
categories
that
they
could
come
and
say.
Would
you
allow
us
to
purchase
X
number
of
mowers?
A
Of
you
know,
I
think
we're
getting
to
a
point
in
our
budget
where
nothing
is
off
the
table.
But
I
got
to
tell
you
that
that
that
type
of
philosophy
scares
me
because
you've
got
some
smaller
departments
that
are
heavily
heavily
budgeted
towards
personnel.
Well,
there's
just
not
that
much,
not
that
much
of
an
opportunity
for
them
to
realize
any
kind
of
savings
outside
salary
and
and
it's
sort
of
skews
the
in
my
mind
this
is
just
one
person's
opinion,
but
it
sort
of
skews
the
playing
field
a
little
bit.
A
Having
said
that,
I
recognize
that
our
larger
departments
that
touch
the
greatest
majority
of
our
citizens
certainly
includes
Parks
and
Rec,
and
it
does
so
in
a
way
that
can
lead
to
health
and
welfare
because
of
unkempt
right
away
and
letting
that
stuff
can't
control.
So
I'm,
not
saying
don't
look
at
that
I'm
just
saying
that
it
hasn't
been
some
mechanisms,
I
think
we've
used
in
the
past.
It's
certainly
not
with
any
company.
H
G
Browner,
you
think
you
could
put
a
priority
list
together.
What
you
need
all
for
this,
the
capital
request
here
and
with
the
intent
that
I'm
willing
to
add
something
and
I'll
tell
you.
I
am
because
there's
just
we.
This
touches
so
many
people
in
so
many
lives
and
utilize,
day-in,
day-out
constantly
and
even
we've
had
some
dealings
with
lawsuits
dealing
with
some
equipment
matters
and
things
like
that
and
and
and
then
even
you
look
at
like
you
talked
about.
You've
got
a
the
number
two
facility
sports
tourism
facility.
G
It
might
be
number
one,
but
I
can
tell
you
what
there's
a
lot
of
competition
in
the
state
right
now
trying
to
take
our
soccer
tournaments
and
sports
tournaments
away
from
us,
and
it's
imperative
that
we
we
maintain
and
upkeep
our
facilities
on
a
constant
basis
or
we're
gonna
lose
this
revenue
and
it's
a
lot
of
revenues.
Like
I
said
it's
the
number
two
producing
revenue
coming
in
sports,
related
tourism
coming
in
support
in
this
community.
That's
a
lot
of
revenue
and
I.
Don't
you
know
you
hear
all
the
convention?
G
Visitors
Bureau
has
been
marketing
a
lot
lately
about
all
this
revenue
that
the
tourism
revenue
that
comes
into
our
community
and
it's
been,
and
we
support
a
lot
of
our
Binion's
most
like
a
lot
of
other
municipalities
and
cities.
They
don't
do
that.
We
support
a
lot
of
our
municipality
venues
here,
so
we
do
need
it
so
I'm
willing
to
add
a
third
of
that
I.
G
N
Sir,
and
what
we'll
do
is
we'll
go
back
because
each
of
the
divisions
is
represented
in
what
you
have
in
front
of
you
and
what
we'll
do
is
go
back
as
a
department
and
prioritize
prioritize
the
entire
list,
because
that's
what
we
do
from
the
beginning,
we
have
each
division
prioritized.
So
when
you
look
at
Park
Service's,
we
need
a
vehicle
because
we
have
we
have
staff
who
we
could
put
out
doing
other
things
and
we
have
to
share
vehicles
because
they
don't
have
a
vehicle
to
drive
anymore
because
their
vehicle
is
no
longer
viable.
N
But
yes,
sir,
we
can
certainly
do
that
and
we
can
do
it
Department
and
yes,
sir.
You
make
a
very
good
point,
because
many
of
our
facilities
are
in
need
of
upgrades,
not
just
equipment
wise,
but
you
bring
up
South,
Commons
and
the
sports.
You
know
the
revenue
that's
generated
from
the
folks.
If
you
will
heads
and
beds
and
the
folks
who
come
for
our
tournaments,
just
whether
it's
South
Commerce
Commons
or
Woodruff,
Park
or
anywhere
else
at
the
Soccer
Complex,
we
are
starting
to
lag
behind
and.
G
I'll
tell
my
colleagues
just
in
case
some
of
them
have
not
been
privy
to
the
emails
over
the
last
two
or
three
years,
but
you
are
right
about
the
grass
cutting
at
some
of
the
facilities
and
all-
and
you
know
you
might
not
think
that
means
a
lot,
though,
when
these
people
come
in
to
play
these
high
calibre
tournaments
and
they're
not
playing
on
good
field
conditions.
It's
adios
we'll
see
if
we
don't
like
your
facility,
we're
going
to
a
better
one.
Yes,.
N
G
We
do
need
to
step
on
these
things
and
that's
that's
been
one
of
the
I
hear
those
complaints
on
them.
I
think
you've
handled
them
well,
I'm,
not
getting
involved
in
it,
but
I
see
what's
coming
through
and
I
hear
that,
but
we've
been
dealing
with
that
for
a
while
and
I
see
you
got
that
one
of
those
requests
on
the
list.
So
mr.
budget
chair
I'm,
adding
a
third
of
that
which
would
be
500,000
so.
H
H
A
Go
ahead
and
put
it
on
the
ad
ad
list,
because
it
was
a
request
of
one
of
the
counselors,
and
we
can
look
at
that
as
an
offsetting
funding
mechanism
and-
and
this
group
will
have
an
opportunity
to
try
to
make
that
decision
at
the
time,
but
but
I.
Think
speaking
for
myself,
I'd
like
to
see
an
email
with
the
list
on
what
the
items
are
going
to
actually
be.
Instead
of
just
an
arbitrary
and
I
know,
it's
not
arbitrary,
but
just
instead
of
just
an
amount.
No.
J
N
The
autumn
eyes,
as
you
can
see
the
next
division
that
you
have
before
you
is
rec
services,
recreation
services,
recreation
services
is
essentially
our
recreation
facilities.
In
the
way
we
have
eight
recreation,
centers
for
senior
centers,
a
therapeutic
population
and
our
arts,
and
so
in
the
recreation
services
in
this
category
as
it
relates,
it
just
represents
the
eight
recreation
centers
and
so
in
our
recreation
center.
N
As
you
can
see,
it's
pretty
much
technology,
as
well
as
the
basics
such
as
chairs,
tables,
etc,
and
the
computers
would
be
to
set
up
or
to
replace
existing
computer
labs
for
children
to
come
in
and
do
homework
or
tutorial
things
of
that
nature.
We
partner
with
a
lot
of
agencies
and
many
times
they
come
before
you,
so
you
may
be
aware
of
some
of
them,
but
our
equipment
is
aged
and
just
needs
to
be
replaced.
So
that
says,
it
relates
to
recreation
services,
and
this
is
the
continuation.
N
Some
exercise,
equipment,
that's
outdated,
can't
be
repaired,
any
longer
needs
to
be
replaced
and
then
athletics,
our
biggest
thing
as
I
mentioned
earlier.
We
need
we
need
vehicles,
because
our
vehicles
have
either
died
and
they're
not
not
replaced,
and
so
we
have
to
share
vehicles
within
our
department.
So
one
division
bars
from
another
and
you
got
to
coordinate
and
make
sure
that
you
don't
go
anywhere
that
day,
because
this
person
needs
to
borrow
the
vehicle.
But
essentially
that's
what
we
do.
I'm.
A
A
Q
Had
a
question
about
it
or
some
of
these
costs,
where
they
associated
with
a
vendor,
we've
got
to
use
because
I'm
a
just
bought
a
treadmill.
For
example,
in
the
commercial
heights,
I
stopped
a
lot
of
ones
like
$2,500,
with
a
warranty
and
all
kinds
of
stuff
and
same
thing
with
the
recumbent
bikes
they're
about
1,300
sure.
N
These
are
more
commercial
rated
and
they
are
for
the
most
part,
under
contract
with
vendors
that
we
use.
If
they're
not,
then
we
have
to
put
it
out
on
bid
to
purchase
it
because
of
the
cost.
But
yes,
but
we
we
purchased
them
we're
purchasing
something
that
is
the
highest
rated
for
weight
and
for
usage
and
for
a
lifetime
of
the
the
actual
unit.
Because
what
we
found
can't
go
to
Sears,
you
can't
go
to
the
local
places,
and
you
know
somewhere
like
that
and
purchase
equipment.
N
Q
N
N
My
next
area
was
cultural
arts,
I'm,
not
sure
where
my
it's
not
showing
up
but
and
our
cultural
arts
division
on.
Essentially,
we
were
asking
for
some
similar
things:
computers,
laptops
and
those
are
for
classes.
As
you
know,
now
many
things
are
digital,
and
so
we
want
to
be
able
to
do
the
same
type
things
and
offer
art
in
a
way.
That's
digital,
a
storage
shed
because
our
facility
is
very
aged
and
needs.
N
We
need
additional
storage
because
we've
been
there
a
while
also
we
need
additional
will
wills
and
kilns
to
do
the
firings
that
we
do,
and
so
these
are
the
list
of
things
that
cultural
arts
is
in
need
of,
and
I
will
state
that
our
kilns
that
we
use
and
the
vents
we
do
have
them
repaired.
But
we've
reached
a
point
where,
for
the
most
part
they
just
can't
be
repaired
any
longer
and
there's
no
one
locally.
N
We
do
have
to
contract
that
get
someone
out
of
the
Atlanta
area
to
come
here
and
work
on
them
for
us
moving
forward.
The
next
would
be
our
senior
services
senior
citizen
services.
We
have
four
senior
centers
here
in
Columbus,
and
these
represents
the
knee
represent
the
needs
of
those
senior
citizen
centers
and
essentially
it
skills
and
exercise
equipment.
As
many
of
you
know,
we've
talked
about
before
our
population
obviously
is
more
active,
even
in
their
older
years.
N
N
But
it's
because
of
the
total
number
that
we
need.
This
is
a
facility
gets
rented
a
lot
and
used
by
the
community
a
lot,
and
so
we
ask
for
things
as
councillor
Walker
asked
a
moment
ago.
I
mean
Garrett,
asked
I'm
going
to
go.
These
are
things
that
are
commercial
in
in
need:
they're,
not
your
basic
residential
type
items
so
they're
a
little
more
costly
and.
A
K
N
We
do
play,
but
currently
we
need
additional
candle
whip.
We
need
additional
lights,
we
do
play,
but
we
can't
do
any
more
than
what
we
have
now,
because
the
candle
width
is
not
bright
enough,
meaning
that
we
can't
play
any
college
games.
We
can't
bring
any
other
groups
there
of
that
level
other
than
the
high
school
and
we
just
barely
meet
the
minimum
for
the
current
high
school
standards.
N
N
Also,
as
miss
Goodwin
mentioned,
we
can't
do
televised
games
because
there's
not
enough
candle
width.
So
even
if
Google
back
to
your
question
as
far
as
high
school
games
go
even
if
they
really
want
to
do
a
lot
of
televising
of
our
games,
it's
very
hard
because
the
candle
whip
is
not
there
for
the
lighting.
H
It's
one
of
one
of
the
issues
with
playing
what
the
college
football
games
at
night
and
net
and
I.
What
they
share
with
me
is
it's
referred
to
as
foot-candles
and
I
think
they
require
a
minimum
of
50
foot-candles
and
we
don't
have
that
and
technically
I
believe
I
believe
Georgia
High
School
Association
actually
require
50,
foot-candles
I'm.
H
N
We
haven't
really,
we
have
not
in
regards
to
high
school,
because
right
now
on,
we
try
to
play
as
many
as
possible
working.
We
work
with
the
school
district
hand
in
hand
to
help
the
schools
to
be
able
to
play
their
games.
We
do
know
that
we
could
do
so
in
a
different
way
if
we
were
able
to
play
play
differently,
but.
A
N
Only
say
that,
based
on
what
we
currently
have
compared
to
say,
for
instance,
instance,
canet
stadium
organizations
don't
select
to
come
because
of
that
they
would,
moreover,
perhaps
go
to
canet.
So
it's
hard
for
me
to
estimator,
tell
you
what
we
have
or
have
not
lost
because
there's
another
opportunity
for
them
locally.
Gotcha.
K
Do
know,
too
that
there
is
a
concern
at
the
school
district
level
on
scheduling
because
they
don't
they
don't
necessarily
want
to
play
their
football
games
on
Thursday
night,
but
they
are
already
booked
at
tonight,
canet
on
Friday
night,
and
they
don't
want
to
go
out
of
town
all
the
time.
So
it's
one
of
those
you
know
what
do
we
do?
Kind
of
thing?
Yes,
ma'am.
R
N
G
General
in
this
conversation
or
talking
talking
about
Memorial
Stadium-
and
you
know
we
do
a
lot
of
I
guess
we
do
a
lot
of
shared
kind
of
opportunities
with
school,
district
and
working
with
them.
Various
you
know
they
utilize.
Let's
just
say
they
utilize
a
lot
of
our
facilities.
Small,
but
that's
not
that's
not.
What
is
just
part
of
a
small
part
of
the
problem
that
I
see
in
the
future,
which
really
really
concerns
me
and
I
would
hope
that
we
start
in
a
city
manager.
G
You
said
that
that
the
administration
is
putting
and
compiling
a
list
of
of
just
the
condition
and
of
all
the
facilities,
and
we
talked
about
I-
think
I
brought
it.
We
were
having
this
various
conversation
about
Memorial
and
some
of
the
concerns
there,
but
it's
not
just
there.
It's
golden
Park,
it's
other
places
all
across
the
City
Council
Allen.
G
You
know
it's
the
ballpark,
so
it's
it's
the
our
super
centers,
it's
our
gyms,
it's
everything
and
there's
other
facilities
and
needs
as
well
I
mean
we're
going
to
hear
from
more
departments
about
you
know
some
of
the
concerns
and
I
know
with
this
budget.
I
feel
confident
that
mayor's
try
to
do
everything
you
can
and
in
working.
Our
capital
needs
out
as
we
go
into
the
future.
But
you
you've
always
heard
me
say:
that's
one
of
the
things
I'm
really
really
concerned
about,
as
a
council
representative
is,
is
our
need
to
replace
our
facilities.
G
Our
brick-and-mortar
that's
out
there
that
it's,
it's
just
faces
becoming
more
and
more
outdated,
and
you
know,
as
time
goes
by
it's
just
getting
worse,
but
we're
working
with
what
we
have.
Let
that
be
noted,
but
I
think
having
the
conversations
at
some
point
in
time
of
strategy
is.
Is
the
right
thing
to
do?
G
You
know
its
terminated
at
that
point,
that
that
might
be
something
that
we
really
really
need
to
explore,
because
you
know
I,
don't
think
I'm
the
only
one
that
shares
those
concerns,
but
it's
every
year
that
goes
by
it's
getting
worse
and
it's
going
to
cost
more
money.
I
mean
that's
just
the
nature
of
what's
happening.
So
you
know
I
thought
it
did
good
point
good
time.
Mr.
budget
chair
to
interject
into
this
conversation,
absolutely.
P
E
N
I
believe
so
thank
you,
but
yes,
sixteen
thousand
and
like
I,
said
before
that,
primarily
it's
just
tables
and
chairs,
because
we
do
buy
commercial,
but
I
can
tell
you
the
tables,
the
chairs
that
we
currently
have
other
chairs.
Well,
once
the
facility
was
renovated
and
reopened
as
it
is
now.
Those
are
the
original
chairs
that
were
put
in
that
facility
and
we
have
recovered
them.
We've
done
things
that
try
to
be
proactive
on
our
side
without
having
to
actually
purchase
new
equipment.
N
N
A
A
J
B
J
L
They've
done
some
remarkable
things
in
terms
of
our
workers,
comp
area
and
our
claims,
liability
area
and
our
safety
area
and
they're
continuing
to
look
for
safety
safety
area
things
that
they
can
do
throughout
the
city,
and
they
have
other
opportunities
that
they
are
going
to.
They
were
continually
looking
at
and
want
to
be
able
to
bring
those
to
the
city,
so
I
run
it
the
risk
manager
to
come,
and
just
talk
a
little
bit
give
an
overview
of
what
we've
been
doing
is
where
we
are
and
talk
about.
L
What
we
believe
is
our
next
opportunity
for
risk
management
to
look
at
adding
to
that
particular
division,
so
that
we
can
continue
the
return
on
investment
that
we've
brought
to
the
city
for
these
past
four
years
and
I.
Think,
like
I
said,
we've
talked
about
it
and
you've
heard
some
of
the
good
things
that
have
been
done
and
we
want
to
take
this
opportunity
to
give
another
overview
of
what
we
are
doing
and
then
ask
for
your
consideration
of
the
next
step
forward
in
risk
management.
S
What
we
are
looking
at
now
is
transferring
some
of
the
insurance
liability
work
that
currently
resides
in
finance.
In
the
past
couple
of
years,
I've
been
working
with
finance
on
some
of
the
bigger
claims
that
have
involved
our
facilities,
because
my
background
includes
working
as
an
adjuster
and
therefore
I
know
a
little
bit
about
that.
Finance
has
had,
obviously,
as
we
all
know,
some
shortfalls
and
staffing,
so
I've
been
helping
them
with
that.
S
What
we
have
discussed
is
transferring
the
insurance,
especially
the
facilitate
liability,
work
to
risk
management,
and
that's
one
of
the
reasons
I
am
before
you
today.
I
just
wanted
to
give
you
a
very
brief
overview
of
what
risk
management
has
been
able
to
accomplish
and
in
workers
comp.
We
are
now
running
over
two
million
dollars
a
year
left
in
our
claims
costs
than
we
were
when
I
came.
Return
to
work
savings
just
for
last
year
are
approximately
one
hundred
and
thirty
three
thousand
dollars
that
involves
programs
whereby
we
bring
injured
workers
back
with
restrictions.
S
I
have
got
wonderful
department
heads
around
the
city
who
have
worked
with
me
to
enable
us
to
place
injured
workers
who
have
restrictions
in
other
departments
than
their
own
to
pick
up
some
of
the
functions
for
which
those
departments
have
no
now
so
they
are
able
to
perform
some
of
those
tasks
and
that
helps
the
department.
It
helps
the
worker
because
they're
not
sitting
at
home
they're,
getting
better
psychologically
and
physically
last
year,
in
fact,
about
a
month
or
so
back,
we
actually
got
a
refund
in
our
access
coverage
premium.
For
the
last
policy.
S
Yeah,
that's
been
a
lot
of
work
to
produce
the
correct
figures
for
the
access
coverage
provider.
They
do
a
premium
audit
every
year
at
the
end
of
the
policy
period
and
they
sent
us
a
check
for
I
think
it
was
quick,
two
thousand
nine
hundred
and
thirty
five
dollars
so
I
rounded
it
up.
It's
fifty
one
thousand
dollars
straight
assessment
for
border
operations.
S
The
State
Board
of
workers
comp
assesses
every
employer
in
the
state
a
certain
amount
to
cover
their
operations
each
year
and
because
of
our
improved
figures
last
year
they
reduced
that
by
five
thousand,
so
that
it
was
approximately
thirty
two
thousand
dollars
for
the
year
and
that's
a
significant
reduction.
When
you
look
at
that
percentage,
video
and
then
summary
on
that
return
on
investment.
S
Now
we
have
for
every
dollar
spent,
basically
we're
getting
back
to
dollar
seventy
cents
with
our
TPA,
that's
over
and
above
the
shadows,
so
we're
about
eight
point:
four
percent
lower
than
fee
schedule
in
our
overall
expenses
now
liability
claims
I
mean
this
goes
up
and
down
and
up
and
down.
It
depends
what
happens
but
I'm
tracking
at
the
moment
where
we
are
in
total
claims
third-party
claims
that
are
submitted
to
us
and
this
fiscal
year.
S
Thus
far,
we
are
tracking
approximately
forty
percent
less
than
we
were
last
year,
which
says
a
lot
about
our
overall
program
about
everything
that
we're
doing
across
the
city.
I
mean
this
is
not
just
risk
management.
This
is
working
with
all
the
departments
and
the
loss
control
the
work
we're
doing
outside
to
improve
things
for
the
citizens.
All
of
this
is
helping
to
reduce
the
total
liability
claims
that
are
being
submitted
to
us
now.
S
I
also
wanted
to
cover
a
couple
of
things
that
risk
management
is
able
to
do
when
we
are
applying
some
creative
thought.
Last
year,
I
proposed
that
maybe
we
looked
at
employing
an
outside
vendor
for
damage
recovery
services.
This
is
where
we
have
don't
have
any
city
involvement
in
damages,
so
we
don't
have
a
city
driver
who
runs
into
a
stop
sign
or
is
involved
in
a
motor
vehicle
accident.
S
This
is
some
civilian,
that's
run
into
a
stop
sign
and
we
are
not
aware
of
that,
and
risk
management
does
not
have
the
ability
to
go
and
mine
all
the
state
records
to
find
out
all
the
information
for
recovering
the
cost
of
fixing
that
stop
sign.
However,
there
are
companies
out
there
that
will
do
that,
and
they
don't
require
upfront
costs.
We
don't
have
to
give
them
a
penny
until
they
recover
something,
and
at
that
point
they
take
15%
and
send
us
a
check
for
85%.
So
this
is
found
money.
S
It's
something
we
would
not
have
at
all
if
they
weren't
using
their
magic
algorithms
and
going
out
and
pursuing
recovery.
So
this
contract
was
put
in
place
in
December
of
2016
and
to
date
we've
received
$40,000,
so
I
think
that's
pretty
good
and
then,
when
I
mentioned
just
now,
like
duty
assignments
for
workers
comp
employees,
this
is
not
only
tasks,
but
in
some
cases
this
is
actual
income.
S
So
to
date,
there's
been
over
a
hundred
thousand
dollars.
That's
been
charged
as
a
result
of
being
able
to
update
databases,
so
we
are
requesting
the
additional
position
of
a
risk
management
analyst
and
in
the
anticipation
of
councillor
Hoffs
question.
Yes,
this
was
placed
in
the
funding
for
the
in
the
budget
document.
S
With
the
addition
of
that
one
position,
we
should
be
able
to
assume
the
additional
duties
that
finance
currently
has
worked
to
improve
and
enhance
the
safety
programs,
develop.
Greater
programs
established
a
succession
plan
if
I
accidentally
leap
out
into
Veterans
Parkway
and
fall
under
a
metro
bus,
and
we
can
create
some
adequate
backups
and
develop
some
programs
that
currently
we
cannot
that
analysts
can
assist
in
identifying
and
pricing
appropriate
coverage
so
that
Columbus
can
guarantee
darkness
and
more
savings.
S
S
There's
also
something
I've
been
discussing
with
some
of
the
underwriters
in
terms
of
inmate
medical
coverage,
which
is
access,
medical
coverage
and
those
are
just
some
suggestions,
basic
suggestions
that
we
could
be
looking
at
and
finally,
as
I
said,
funding
is
available
in
the
risk
management
fund.
Contingency,
that's
a
very
brief
summary
you're.
A
B
As
far
as
the
additional
responsibility
as
it
relates
to
the
facility
claims,
that
is
a
function
that
is
currently
housed
within
the
finance
department.
I
see
since
I've,
been
with
the
city
and
I'm
trying
to
remember
conversations
that
I
have
with
deficit
deficit
managers,
there's
only
been
a
few
of
those
facility
type
claims.
But
yes,
the
facility
claims
are
currently
housed
in
finance
and
we
also
are
responsible
for
the
renewal
of
the
crime
and
property
insurance.
B
S
A
B
A
G
Well,
director
of
meal
I
is
a
great
report,
because
I
I
gave
it
a
lot
of
confidence.
That
year,
you
came
to
some
told
us.
You
could
make
a
difference,
and
these
numbers
actually
I
think
they're
better
than
what
you
shared
with
us
is.
If,
if
I
remember
back
I,
think
we've
made
a
tremendous
amount
of
progress
and
you've
done
a
great
job
and
then
there
is
risk
management.
G
Now,
I
will
tell
you
when
it
comes
to
my
constituents
and
all
I'm,
not
always
happy
with
claims
and
requests,
but
we,
you
know
I'll,
go
to
bat
form,
don't
always
succeed,
but
overall
you
have
saved
the
taxpayers
of
Muscogee
County
a
lot
of
money
in
your
department
by
what
you've
been
doing
and
I
don't
have
a
problem
going
into
contingency,
because
I
just
look
at
it
is
that
that
will
ultimately
pay
for
itself
several
times
over.
So
do
we
need
to
add
that
to
the
list?
It's
not
it's
not
coming
out
of
fund
balance.
A
How
you
budget
the
contingency
I'm
on
your
side,
I,
think
it
makes
great
sense,
but
I
just
need
to
know
that
going
forward
it,
salary
and
employee
is
a
pretty
well
dedicated
expense
that
is
probably
not
going
to
go
down
over
the
next
several
years.
I
just
want
to
make
sure
that
the
contingency,
whatever
we're
budgeting
for,
is
dependable
enough
to
transfer
over
to
a
salary.
It.
B
A
H
A
H
But
her
work
speaks
for
itself
the
savings,
the
efficiencies
that
she's
created.
You
know
it's,
we
don't
have
to
even
talk
about
it.
We
can
see
the
numbers
and
I
think
there's
more
great
work
to
be
done
and
with
the
support
of
this
position,
I
think
we'll
it
will
pay
for
itself.
It
will
see
the
return
on
the
investment
and
I.
A
Think
it's
already
been
placed
on
the
ad
list
and
I
guess
a
an
accompanying
deletion
on
the
adjustment
to
the
contingency
so
we'll
be
able
to
revisit
this
I
think
on
the
23rd
anyway,
regardless
you
do
an
amazing
job
and
we
recognize
since
you've
been
here.
You
certainly
saved
the
city,
a
lot
of
money
and
yeah
I'm
like
councilor
Davis.
We
don't
always
like
delivering
the
news
that
you
give
us
to
constituents,
but
we
recognize
why
you
do
what
you
do
and
we
appreciate
the
way
you
do
it
Oh
counts
the
time
I'm
done
how.
K
When
you
say
the
risk
management
fund
contingency,
this
is
a
new
line
item
to
me.
We've
not
talked
about
a
contingency
fund.
Before
is
this
money
that
has
been
budgeted
for
your
department
to
pay
out
in
the
event
that
there
is
a
claim
that
we
are
not
having
to
pay
out,
and
therefore
it's
left
over
is
that
what
the
contingency
is.
B
K
K
And
I'm
just
going
to
use
numbers
as
an
example.
Okay,
these
are
not
actual
numbers.
I
know
that
if
we
had
said
that
we're
going
to
budget
a
hundred
thousand
dollars
for
workers
comp
claims-
and
this
year
we
only
spent
$50,000
on
workers
comp
claim
that's
$50,000
that
is
left
over
that's
in
this
contingency
fund,
but
next
year.
If
we
use
that
$50,000,
that's
left
over
for
our
salary
position.
This
year,
the
next
year
we've
got
to
budget
a
hundred
thousand
dollars
for
our
workers.
B
Works
while
I
think
in
years
past.
The
reason
why
we
have
this
contingency
in
the
budget
in
the
first
place
is
because
there
was
a
bit
of
a
shortfall
in
the
risk
management
fund.
As
far
as
for
the
workers
comp
fund
balance
in
order
to
build
a
fund
balance
back
on
the
workers
comp
site,
so
that
we
would
have
the
necessary
cash
to
pay
out
these
workers.
B
These
Hughes
workers
comp
claims
that
we
were
paying
but
I
think
that
was
the
initial
reason
for
the
contingency
in
the
fund
and
so
what
and
so
back
to
your
$100,000
an
example.
So
we
do
budget
a
certain
amount
of
money
for
claims
for
risk,
management,
settlements
and
workers.
Comp
claims
in
the
fund.
The
kids
continuously
exist.
B
If
we
go
above
and
beyond
what
we
budgeted
and
I
will
say
over
the
past
couple
years,
where
every
and
we
were,
we
have
been
left,
we've
spent
paid
out
less
in
workers,
comp
claims
and
risk
management
settlements
than
what
we
budgeted.
Like
I
said,
with
this
particular
fiscal
year,
FY
18
we
were
able
to
reduce
the
budget
for
the
workers
comp
site
by
$200,000
because
of
some
of
the
work
the
amory
has
already
done.
Emery.
K
Know,
I
think
that
that
we
you've
done
a
tremendous
job
in
risk
management
and
and
every
time
you
come
before
us
it's
another
for
us,
it's
a
win-win.
I
mean
it's
a
win.
My
concern
concern
is
that
if
we
are
budgeting
more
money
than
you
are
spending
year
after
year
after
year,
why
are
we
doing
that?
We're.
H
J
B
O
J
O
Prior
to
that,
we
were
in
the
two
two
and
a
half
million
dollar
range,
and
so
the
budget
for
workers
comp
claims
that
we've
typically
been
at
two
point:
five,
so
we've
kind
of
built
in
anticipating
those
workers
comp
claims.
We
reduced
that
going
forward
into
FY
18
at
2.3
million.
So
we
were
able
to
reduce
the
total
fund
for
risk
management
by
that
200,000,
which
impacts
the
requirements
from
the
other
funds
contributing
to
the
risk
management
fund,
and
so
the
total
fund
still
has
the
money
in
contingency
which
is
500,000
for
unanticipated
claims.
O
B
O
We
have
that
same
anticipated
contingency
that
we
haven't
had
to
use
in
most
recent
years.
So
as
we
continue
to
move
forward
and
we
implement
additional
safety
programs,
we'll
we'll
be
able
to
continue
to
reduce
the
risk
management
workers.
Comp
portion
of
that
down
in
that
500,000
that
we
keep
in
contingency
might
not
need
to
be
budgeted
going
forward.
But
we
could
continue
to
budget
for
this
position
and.
H
Then
we
don't
anticipate
that
and
that's
I
mean
it's
tonicity
same
philosophy:
I
think
that
we
use
with
health
care.
You
know
if
you're
proactive
and
you
do
these
things
and
you
present
you
prevent
those
those
huge
cost
in
the
end,
if
we
are
proactive
and
memory
has
been
proactive
and
she's
done
great
things,
you
know
her
work
and
she's
going
to
continue
to
do
those
things,
but
with
E.
H
A
We
get
it
we're
going
to
have
an
opportunity
to
look
go
through
this
one
more
time
when
we
bring
all
the
edge
leads
back.
What
I
would
request
I
think
it's,
maybe
an
historical
perspective
of
how
that
fund
grew
to
where
it
is,
and
I
would
suggest,
go
back
about
7
years,
because
you've
been
here
five
and
that
would
show
us
how
it
was
probably
hit
a
little
harder,
just
priority
arrival.
A
And
then,
if
you
would
give
us
a
brief
narrative
or
just
some
kind
of
specular
speculative
opinion
on
how
you
see
this
being
funded
in
the
future.
And
that
way,
we'll
I
think
have
well
know
how
we
got
here
and
what
we'll
get
from
you
clearer
understanding
of
how
we're
going
to
go
forward
that
sound,
okay,.
E
A
S
A
I
H
I
R
H
I
H
I
I
I
B
H
I
A
G
G
And
I
think
when
you
look
at
the
trend,
the
trend
supports
itself.
You
got
to
look.
This
is
a
restrictor
on
this
contingency
matter.
It's
a
restricted
fund
to
be
just
like
the
integrated
fund
or
any
of
the
other
funds
fun
pushing
on.
We
fun
positions
out
of
that
all
the
time,
but
the
difference
here
is
that
when
you
invest
you're,
actually
investing
in
risk
management,
you're
going
to
ultimately
save
money
in
the
general
fund,
which
is
money
for
operations
across
the
board,
because
you
don't
have
to
supplement
it.
A
Any
more
comments,
questions
hold
them
till
the
23rd,
no
amber
thanks
for
liven
things
up,
make
sure
we
no
longer
stayed
on
track
now,
just
kidding.
Thank
you
for
what
you
do.
You
really
do
a
good
job.
That's
what
makes
all
these
deliberations
I
think
so,
sincere
and
so
spirit
at
a
time.
So
thank
you
so.
J
U
U
A
U
Appreciate
it
it's
much
more
comfortable
out
in
the
field
with
this
song
than
it
is
a
suit
and
tie
well.
First
of
all,
the
first
she
just
shows
my
proposed
budget,
and
in
that
proposed
budget,
I
requested
several
changes.
One
would
be
to
as
a
deputy
coroner
to
my
staff.
This
is
something
as
well
needed
has
been
for
many
years
and
at
one
time
it
was
a
line
item
that
was
never
filled,
so
it
was
taken
off.
U
If
it's
a
homicide,
I
experienced
two
homicides
back-to-back
I
was
up
to
24
hours
straight
out
of
those
calls
we
asked
for
some
reclassifications.
We
went
through
the
process.
Would
UGA
one
of
those
reclassifications
came
back
positive
and
we'll
talk
about
that.
In
a
few
minutes
there
was
a
recommendations.
The
other
two
did
not
the
one
for
deputy
coroner.
Charles
Newton
did
not
administrative
assistant.
Malika
Hampton
did
not
come
back
as
a
recommendation
for
the
operating
expense.
We
asked
for
a
two
hundred
dollar
increase
in
our
mail
budget.
U
Just
do
the
enormous
amount
of
mail
that
we're
having
to
send
out
now
to
attorneys
families,
things
of
that
nature
and
then
under
capital
outlay.
We
asked
for
two
thousand
dollars
for
a
new
computer.
For
my
secretary.
Hers
is
antiquated
most
of
the
problems
the
programs
aren't
working,
but
that's
being
tended
to
we're
working
with
IT
Lynette.
U
The
next
page
will
show
the
mayor's
recommended
budget
when
I
took
office
in
2013
I
reduced
our
budget
by
2.8
percent
after
she
had
asked
me
to
reduce
it
by
1.5
percent.
I
saw
where
we
can
make
some
changes
to
deposit,
that's
part
of
my
being
in
the
corporate
world.
My
whole
life
the
next
year
we
reduced
it
by
1.5
percent.
We
did
the
same
thing
the
next
year
and
then
last
year
we
kind
of
kept
it
at
an
even
balance,
because
we
were
running
on
a
shoestring,
but
we've
been
able
to
maintain.
U
We
haven't
over
exceeded
our
budget,
we've
been
able
to
maintain,
and
that's
just
through
smart
business.
That's
through
running
my
department
as
it
is
a
business
I
think
more
department.
Heads
should
be
running.
It
is
it
as
if
it
were
their
own
home,
their
own
business
like
I.
Do
we
can
see
a
change
here
in
the
City
of
Columbus
on
the
next
page?
I
want
to
make
a
comparison.
U
U
U
If
you
look
at
the
annual
budget,
my
budgets,
two
hundred
and
eighty
nine
thousand
one
hundred
and
sixty-four
dollars,
the
augusta
budget
is
seven
hundred
and
sixty
three
thousand
the
macon
budget
is
three
hundred
and
twenty
two
thousand.
Then
let's
look
at
the
salary
was
taken.
The
consideration
of
the
city
of
columbus
former
coroner
honorable
don
Kilgore
kept
the
salary
very
low
to
keep
anybody
from
running
against
him.
He
did
that
on
purpose
for
a
lot
of
years
that
only
hurt
future
coroner's.
U
U
Augusta
has
four
and
Macon
has
three:
we
need
to
even
the
playing
field,
people
we
need
to
get
me
some
help
in
my
office
and
we
need
to
bring
to
pay
up
to
the
level
that
it
should
be.
I've
introduced
several
programs
here
in
Columbus
that
have
been
money:
savers,
the
pauper,
an
indigent
program
for
one.
We
they
all
come
through
my
office
now,
the
majority
of
them
anyway,
and
we've
been
able
to
save
the
city
thousands
of
dollars.
U
We
also
have
a
will
program
that
we
provide
for
the
citizens
we
work
diligently
with
the
child,
fatality
review
board
and
the
homeless
Network.
The
next
page
brought
to
my
attention.
It's
a
city
charter
and
when
I
look
at
it,
I
see
the
citizen
to
Columbus.
Now
those
are
my
boss,
people
ask
me
who's
your
boss.
I
said
it's
the
citizens
of
Columbus,
they
elected
me.
U
U
U
U
U
U
Now
you
say
well
you're
already
calling
him
chief
deputy
in
2008
the
previous
coroner
bill.
Pro
had
a
big
dedication
service
made
Freeman
chief
deputy
corner
you'll
see
a
picture
of
him
presenting
with
a
badge
for
nine
years.
Nine
years
he
has
been
known
as
chief
deputy
coroner
Freeman
Worley.
He
has
taken
on
the
responsibility
of
that
position
by
taking
on
additional
workload.
U
U
U
Now
that
haven't
been
said,
I'll
take
everything
else
off
the
table
everything
I've
asked
for,
except
for
granting
him
the
right
to
be
declared
chief
deputy
coroner
for
Columbus
Georgia
and
receive
that
minimum
increase
going
from
grade
16
to
abrade
18.
If
you
can
do
that
for
me,
then
I
will
appreciate
it
very
much
the
rest
of
it
we'll
just
keep
working
those
hard
hours
for
our
citizens,
we'll
keep
doing
our
job.
So
we
know
how
to
do
it
best
and
we'll
be
proud,
because
he's
been
recognized
for
what
he
is.
A
It
mr.
Brian
I,
say
aye
before
we
move
on
I
think
addressed
in
addressing
your
request.
I
want
to
publicly
thank
you
because
I
know
it.
In
years,
past
you've
always
been
extremely
mindful
of
our
budget
situation
and
very
willing
and
to
proactively
work
with
the
government
to
try
to
make
sure
things
were
done.
You
have
held
things
down
on
your
end.
You've
taken
on
extra
work,
you've
done
all
kinds
of
things.
E
E
M
A
G
U
U
G
And
look
we
appreciate
all
you
do.
I
will
I
will
be
honest
with
you
straightforward.
This
kind
of
reminds
me
of
what
we
went
through
with
the
marshal
a
couple
years
by
the
same
type
of
situation.
He
wanted
to
add
a
deputy.
Well,
it
wouldn't
be
the
deputy,
maybe
a
chief
deputy
marshal,
but
in
order
to
do
that,
he
was
willing
to
give
up
something
and
that's
what
I'm
asking
you.
What
are
you
willing
to
give
up
here?
I
willing.
G
U
M
G
Not
what
I'm
asking
you,
let's
know
what
I'm
asking
you
here.
We
got
X
2
if
we
got
X
to
work
with
and
and
over
the
years
now,
you've
been
really
really
gracious
every
year
coming
in
I,
don't
have
any
needs.
I've
got
everything
taken
care
of
yes,
sir,
and
now
I
feel
like
the
chickens
have
come
home
to
roost.
Well,
we
had.
U
U
G
U
Asking
for
him
to
be
reclassified
to
chief
deputy
coroner,
which
he
is
and
should
be
to
be
approved,
and
with
that
he's
going
to
go
from
a
great
16
to
a
great
18,
which
will
be
a
brown
$5,000
I
had
Malika
Carl
budget.
That's
what
she
told
me.
So
if
I
can
walk
out
of
this
room,
knowing
that
my
man
here
repricing
Bob
and
gets
that
little
bitty
bitty
bitty,
raise
then
I'm
a
satisfied.
Man
I'll
continue
to
work
five
hundred
and
twenty
hours
a
month,
he'll
continue
to
work.
Four
hundred
eighty.
G
J
A
A
bump
in
salary
he's
requested
a
deputy
to
assistant
court
to
help
him
and-
and
he
is
he's
requested,
a
that-
we
honor
a
reclassification
made
by
his
predecessor,
and
he
says
that
that's
significant
enough
to
pull
everything
else
he's
requesting
off
the
table
if
he
can
just
get
this
reclassification
recognized,
which
would
be
a
five
thousand
dollar
net,
hit
right
budget
as
opposed
to
the
increase
in
his
salary.
So.
G
Creating
a
new
position
along
with
the
other
requests.
So
that's
why
I'm
trying
to
figure
sort
between
so
that's
you
know
there
was
there's
no
nobody's
put
a
dollar
amount
on
the
table
until
I
just
heard
it
that's
what
I
was
trying
to
get
to
so
we're
getting.
There
were
getting
close
restraint
page,
but
it
does
remind
them-
and
that's
I
was
honest
and
telling
you
in
the
beginning
and
not
understand
that's
what
we
did
before
with
the
marshal.
G
G
A
B
Mr.
Freeman
really
I'm
sorry
is
his
present
salary
because
he's
an
existing
employee.
He
would
go
up
to
two
grades,
I'm
two
steps
out
on
the
scale,
and
so
that
difference
is
29
of
two
thousand
nine
hundred
and
forty-seven
dollars.
I
think
what
the
corner
is
saying,
what
the
five
thousand
dollars
is
put
him
out,
giving
him
additional
steps
out
on
the
scale
as
opposed
to
what
he
would
be
entitled
to
as
any
other
employee,
very
precise.
A
Fact
and
I
think
what
I
heard
the
colonel
and
speak
for,
but
I
think
what
I
heard
these
gentlemen
say
is
that
the
significance
of
this
is
the
recognition
of
an
action
that
was
taken
and
never
publicly
ratified
by
the
government
so
I,
while
I'm
sure
you'd,
rather
have
five
you'd
rather
than
fifty.
The
whole
point
is
to
think
to
confirm
the
action
taken
in
well
intended,
but
inappropriately
by
mr.
A
U
A
Sorry
wait.
A
second
I've
got
counsel
question.
D
U
E
B
O
O
K
O
So
what
Jia
Jie
is
passing
out
to
you?
There's
two
handouts:
one
is
labeled
transportation
projects,
the
other
is
labeled
transportation,
special-purpose,
Local,
Option,
Sales,
Tax
discretionary
I'm,
going
to
start
with
the
transportation
projects,
and
what
this
is
is
a
continuation
of
our
planning
as
we're
moving
forward
with
transportation
projects
and
making
them
as
part
of
the
budget
process
for
each
fiscal
year
to
let
you
know
what
projects
were
recommending
to
be
funded
in
FY,
18
and
so
I'll
start
with
the
transportation
projects.
O
The
bridges
would
be
Decatur
and
Melrose
bridges.
We
did
have
that
discussion
when
we
approved
two
other
bridges.
We
didn't
have
enough
funding.
We
needed
to
come
back
in
FY
18
for
additional
funding.
Those
have
already
been
bid
out,
and
so
we
know
the
price
on
those,
so
those
require
an
additional
seven
hundred
thousand
and
six
hundred
thousand
for
Melrose
and
Decatur.
They
were
funded
prior
to
FY
16.
Originally,
as
we
were
doing
the
design
work.
We
did
them
out
in
17
and
so
you're
not
seeing
the
prior
year's
allocation
on
this.
O
This
starts
in
FY
16,
there's
also
additional
funding
requested
for
the
Benning
Drive
bridge
as
we're
moving
forward
with
that
bridge
replacement
in
the
sidewalks
safety
items
that
additional
hundred
thousand
to
maintain
Park
ad,
a
sidewalk
guardrails
on
the
fiber
interconnect
and
the
traffic
calming.
So
we've
allocated
a
hundred
thousand
dollars
for
each
of
those
categories
for
FY
18.
O
The
other
projects,
as
you
follow
down
on
page
two,
would
include
a
parking
lot
at
the
City
Mills
as
part
of
the
Riverwalk
City
Mills
fraud,
as
well
as
the
parking
lot
that
we
discussed
as
access
for
citizens
at
the
Riverwalk
at
the
Westville
location
resurfacing
at
just
over
2.5
million.
We
do
anticipate
Elm
egg
allocation
in
FY
18
of
1.5
million,
and
at
this
point
we
have
not
allocated
elm
egg
to
a
particular
project.
O
We
have
quite
a
few
projects
out
for
bid,
so
we
want
to
make
sure
that
if
there's
any
that
come
in
over
bid
that
we
have
this
funding
available,
that
could
be
allocated
to
one
of
those
projects.
So
as
we
move
into
FY,
18
we'll
be
coming
back
to
Council
for
approval
to
allocate
Elm
egg
to
a
specific
project.
How.
V
O
So
that
brings
us
a
total
of
10
million
125
thousand
and
that's
allocated
from
piece
loss.
Discretionary,
the
paving
fund,
the
olaf's
road
infrastructure
money,
the
Elm
egg
at
1.5,
and
also
we
will
be
seeking
a
grant
from
G
dot
of
ZZ
to
30
funds
in
the
total
of
2.4
million
and
those
are
for
the
two
roundabouts
and
the
discretionary
funds.
The
match
for
those
will
come
from
the
T
slots.
Discretionary
fund.
E
O
Was
just
going
through
the
ones
that
we're
recommending
for
FY
18
the
beaver
run,
Road
roundabout
is
something
that
G
dot
has
taken
on
as
their
project,
so
we're
leaving
it
on
the
on
the
sheet.
It's
now
become
a
G
dot
project
and
not
a
locally
funded
project.
So
that's
why
you'll
see
a
0
for
a
total,
but
at
this
time
they're
taking
on
that
project
and
moving
forward
with
that,
but
we
don't
want
to
lose
sight
of
that
in
case
G.
Dot,
for
some
reason
doesn't
provide
the
funding
for
that
project.
Okay,.
A
O
Just
to
move
on
to
the
second
handout.
This
is
specifically
the
allocations
for
teeth,
floss
discretionary
that
is
included
on
part
of
the
transportation,
but
just
to
walk
through
those
and
again,
we've
allocated
those
out
based
on
what
council
has
approved
in
resolution
to
39:13.
We
don't
want
to
exceed
those
allocations
that
council
has
made
to
each
one
of
the
different
components
of
the
transportation
projects
to
include
road
improvement,
bridge
and
culvert,
repair,
maintenance
and
safety
improvements,
future
operations
and
matching
funds,
and
then
the
last
category
is
alternative.
Transportation,
which
includes
sidewalks
so
for
FY.
O
O
G
Council
data,
deputy
city
manager,
Hodge
the
the
in
talking
about
the
transportation
projects
with
all
the
we've
got
a
lot
of
a
lot
of
projects
coming
up
and
in
the
next
few
years
we've
got
several,
including
the
T
spots
as
well.
How
are
you
doing
your
department?
How
are
you
doing
management
managing
all
these
projects.
O
Ryan
Pruett
is
our
project
manager
he's
done
a
really
good
job.
Staying
on
top
of
those
he
works
in
the
engineering
department
under
Donna
Newman
John
Hutchinson,
who
previously
came
from
that
role,
is
assisting
as
needed
in
those
projects
that
he's
doing
a
good
job.
Maintaining
and
keeping
up
with
all
the
projects
that
are
currently
under
construction.
Well,.
G
G
O
Lot
of
the
projects
that
eSports
projects
are
being
done
in-house,
but
the
spider
web
project
is
being
done
in-house,
but
the
inner
changes
with
winter
Vista,
Road
and
185,
casita,
Road
and
185,
and
the
one
at
Custer
Road
are
those
are
managed
by
G
dot.
So
some
of
the
T
sports
projects
will
be
managed
internally
and
some
will
be
managed
by
G
dot.
The
week's
meet
with
them
on
a
regular
basis,
along
with
our
engineers
that
are
designing
these
projects.
So
we
have
support
from
geo
and
outside
engineers
on
these
projects.
So.
O
A
Know
and
I
wonder
if
we
could
I
know,
we've
got
some
people
here
waiting
on
a
reclassification
discussion
and
I
think
this
could
be
lengthy.
I
mean
it
doesn't
matter
to
me,
but
I
just
know:
we've
got
some
folks
waiting
and
I
know
a
couple
of
council
members
are
going
to
have
to
leave
shortly,
so
I
thought.
Maybe
we
should
go
to
that?
It's
okay!
That's.
B
B
Unfortunately,
our
director
of
Elections
is
out
of
town
at
a
mandatory
training,
so
she's
unable
to
be
here
at
this
type
of
time,
but
all
of
the
other
departments
in
which
a
reclassification
was
permitted
in
the
mayor's
proposed
budget.
They're
here,
like
I,
said
in
the
general
fund
that
with
parks
and
recreations
elections,
the
clerk
of
Municipal
Court
and
then
also
in
our
enterprise
funds
we
had
on
the
Civic
Center.
There
was
a
reclassification
there
and
in
our
trace
in
our
fund,
there
was
a
reclassification
so.
B
B
F
H
Good
song
and
mr.
chairman,
we
did
tell
director
elections
director,
Nancy
boar
and
that
we
would
ask
you
to
delay
discussing
her
positions
until
we
can
get
her
here
at
Council,
she's
out
of
town
as
the
finance
director
indicate
on
mandatory
training,
and
so
we
told
her
that
we
thought
you
would
be
willing
to
do
that.
A
Any
I
know
we've
all
seen
these
when
the
mayor
presented
a
budget
letter
and
I
have
frankly
forgotten
that
they
were,
they
were
written
here.
Does
anybody
have
any
questions,
or
would
you
like
a
brief
summary
from
this
Browder
on
the
necessity
of
these
reclass
okay
scribe?
If
you
would
just
give
us
a
brief
summary
of
what
necessitated
there?
Certainly.
N
The
first
position
that
we
have
listed
is
a
park
maintenance
supervisor
which
is
currently
at
a
grade
14
and
we're
requesting
to
move
it
to
a
position
that
we
previously
had
in
our
department,
which
is
a
parks
manager
grade
17.
If
you
notice
over
to
the
right,
the
amount
is
sixty
four
hundred
and
three
dollars
and
I
want
to
also
make
mention,
because
it
correlates
directly
to
the
next
position.
N
That's
below
that,
meaning
that
our
Community
Schools
District
Supervisor,
that
we
currently
are
budgeted
for
it
at
grade
16
we're
requesting
to
move
that
to
a
grade
fourteen.
So
essentially,
we
would
swap
those
two
positions
to
make
us
budget
neutral
and
in
other
words,
also
our
current
position
that
we
have
that's
a
great
14
on.
That's
in
part,
maintenance.
N
He
gets
overtime,
and
so
this
position
moving
to
a
17
would
not
allow
us
to
have
overtime,
and
so
we
would
actually
have
some
cost
savings
due
to
the
fact
that
there
would
no
longer
be
overtime
to
that
position.
So
saying
all
that
to
say
we
would
go
from
currently
having
a
grade
14
in
park
maintenance
to
a
17
and
then
in
community
schools.
A
E
F
E
I'll
just
throw
this
on
the
table,
the
way
it
works
in
the
corporate
world.
You
are
promoted
to
a
position
or
given
an
opportunity
to
work
and
once
you've
proven
yourself,
then
you
get
this
kind
of
reclass.
So
just
for
everybody's
input,
if
you're
going
to
advertise
and
then
go
out
and
hire
somebody
in
they
have
an
arm,
that's
the
g17!
Yet
I
would,
in
my
mind
I
would
start
them
at
the
g14
next
year.
N
Need
to
also
make
mention
on
just
so
we
just
first
clarification,
and
this
is
this
is
my
fault.
The
position
that
we
currently
have
is
the
grade.
16
is
vacant.
There
is
no
one
in
the
position
so
looking
to
feel
we
still
have
one
vacancy
at
this
point.
So
what
we
would
do
is
use
that
potentially
the
great
seventeen
to
field
position,
and
then
we
would
go
ahead
and
fill
that
that
14,
because
we
currently
have
one
of
those
positions
open.
So
we
wouldn't
be
adding
a
third
person.
E
N
H
N
H
H
H
N
H
Is
no
assistant
director?
Yes,
there
is
no
apparent
second
in
charge
and,
of
course,
this
position
I
won't
name
any
of
the
previous
people,
but
right
now,
I'll
just
say
that
Tama
gross
is
in
that
position
and
and
if
Tommy
Rose
were
to
lead
tomorrow,
you'd
have
to
find
someone
in
the
ranks
to
step
up
and
you
you're
trying
to
prepare
someone
to
take
over
when
Tommy
retires
or
decides
to
leave
and,
and
you
need
someone
ready
to
go
because
it
takes
care
of
all
the
parts.
H
Yes,
and
so
what
you
want
to
do
with
that
is
she
wants
to
search
within
the
organization
and
fan
internally
not
go
outside
and
get
a
candidate
the
best
person
to
be
there
to
assist
and
learn
and
work
under
Tommy
groves
that
when
he
retires
the
leaves
they
can
just
step
into
the
position.
That's
what
I
understand.
Yes,.
H
N
N
N
E
E
N
E
N
H
E
H
N
Is-
and
it's
exactly,
though,
is
counsel
island
has
suggested
that
they
have
proven
yourself.
We
have
multiple
14s
that
are
capable
of
being
in
that
seventeen
level
that
have
proven
themselves
and
that's
why.
This
would
be
that
opportunity
for
us
to
interview
those
candidates
at
that
position,
and
it
would
only
come
from
our
grade
14s,
and
we
only
currently
have
about
eight
employees
currently
in
this
division,
and
there
are
several
of
them
that
have
proven
themselves,
but
we
have
no
opportunity
as
the
way
our
current
system
is
laid
out
as
far
as
positions.
N
As
far
as
having
a
succession
planning,
because
we
do
have
a
division
manager,
as
city
manager
said,
that
will
be
retiring
in
the
next
few
years
and
I
want
to
make
sure
that
our
city
and
our
department
is
well
in
its
way
to
making
being
sustainable
once
that
person
is
gone,
and
this
is
our
best
opportunity
at
this
time
to
do
so.
I.
E
E
Mean
interrupts,
Yod
I
was
just
saying
if
you
started
the
park
maintenance
for
take
the
14
and
start
them
in
the
job
this
year
next
year
come
back
and
move
them
to
a
15.
If
you're
satisfied
with
their
work
level,
you're
asking
you're
saying
the
person
that
the
father
for
teens
you
have
now
are
capable
of
moving
up
so
once
you
select
one,
then
they
will
move
up
too,
and
your
experience
they're
changing
from
the
job
they're
doing
now
to
the
job
that
Tommy's
doing
no.
N
Sir,
that's
why
we're
asking
for
the
17,
and
this
position
is
what
you
GA
cost
it
for
our
department.
We
don't
have
a
15
16.
As
you
said,
that's
just
not
the
steps
within
our
department.
We
don't
have
those
type
positions.
Our
positions
go
from
this
14
to
the
17,
and
this
is
an
assent
to
the
19,
but
currently
right,
I'm,
sorry
from
the
currently
they
go
from
the
14
to
the
19,
because
the
17s
were
done
away
with
years
ago.
N
N
H
J
K
K
N
We
read,
but
not
in
part
maintenance
not
in
park
services.
That
would
be
the
position
that
would
be
in
community
schools,
because
we
currently,
if
you
look
down
to
the
next
line,
we
currently
have
the
grade
16
that
were
wanting
to
make
a
14,
and
we
don't
have
anyone
in
that
position
at
all.
So
we
would
not
be
losing
anyone.
Essentially,
we
would
still
remain
with
two
positions.
K
N
N
N
H
That's
where
the
budget
neutral
is
going
to
come
from
she's
going
to
go
from
a
16
to
a
14
in
in
the
community
schools
position
and
from
a
14
to
17
in
port
maintenance,
to
provide
the
training
in
preparation
for
the
person.
That's
going
to
come
a
hand
to
division
manager
and
it's
all
budget
neutral.
And
it's
just
administrative.
K
Holly
right
now
you
have
we're
talking
about
four
positions:
we're
talking
about
park,
maintenance,
14
park
manager,
17
minutes
to
60
and
recreation
program,
specialist
14
of
those
four
positions.
How
many
people
do
you
have
right
now
filling
those
positions
when
the
park
maintenance
supervisor
right?
Yes,
the
14th.
If
this
is
approved,
how
many
people
will
you
have
in
those
four
positions.
N
K
K
Q
F
N
K
Position
moving
from
park
maintenance
supervisor
to
park
manager
has
a
different
set
of
obligations.
Right
I
mean
a
different
job
description.
Yes,
so
that
currently,
that
14
earns
over
time,
but
you're
going
to
change
their
job
description
so
that
they
no
longer
are
eligible
for
overtime.
Is
that
correct.
N
J
A
A
T
T
T
Thank
you,
and
the
only
issue
I'm
here
today
is
to
discuss
the
upgrade
of
the
physicians
g12
to
g22
deputy
clerk.
That's
been
with
us
for
nine
years
and
what
she
does
is
it
they're
a
tremendous
job.
She
oversees
the
office
to
a
certain
extent.
She
does
court,
she
does
our
dockets.
She
does
all
our
judgments.
She
act
as
a
regular
clerk.
You
know
she
greets
the
customer
when
they
come
in
wait
on
the
customer
system.
You
know
she
goes
over
and
beyond.
T
I
have
214
positions
in
my
office
already,
and
they
have
been
there
less
than
she
has
the
last
time
that
she
has
been
there
and
I.
Just
think
that,
with
all
the
work
she
does,
she
fills
in
for
everyone.
She
helped
everyone.
She
knows
the
office
inside
and
out
and
she
can
go
in
in
a
position
and
work
that
position.
I
really
feel
that
it's
about
time
for
her
to
be
upgraded
to
g14
and
it
will
be
budget
neutral
because
of
the
fact.
T
I
do
understand
that.
Well,
your
overtime
stays
exactly
like
it
is,
and
we're
willing
to
take
that
chance
with
it
and
everything,
because
I
feel
that
she
do
deserve
this
position
and
we're
willing
to
instead
of
paying
out
to
overtime,
we're
willing
to
do
more
as
far
as
company
compensating
everyone
with
our
comp
times
and
they
can
go
out,
you
know
we
can
utilize
it
that
way.
So
we
have
an
agreement
with
that,
but
I
really
feel
like
a
that.
T
E
B
E
E
T
T
T
B
A
A
Tell
miss
Bishop.
We
wish
her
speed,
whatever
I.
H
Miss
Cheerilee
I
believe
I'm.
Next,
no
just
kidding
I
just
was
let
me
just
my
reclass.
It's
budget-neutral
is
about
CC
GTV
I
think
we
all
know
that
CC
GTV
provides
vital
program
and
and
transparency
to
the
citizens
of
Columbus
through
City
Council
meetings
and
budget
meetings
and
planted
Advisory
Commission
meetings,
community
programs
that
are
televised.
H
We
often
time
have
somewhat
of
a
crisis
when
our
system
goes
down
or
the
sound
is
not
coming
through
and
so
I'm
requesting
that
we
convert
the
citizens
service,
center
tech
position
to
communications
and
multimedia
specialists
when
we
sent
it
to
UGA,
they
sent
back
a
great
14.
The
position
is
currently
a
great
10.
That's
a
difference
of
7551
dollars.
I
have
two
part-time
positions
in
the
city
manager's
office
and
want
to
reduce
one
of
the
part-time
positions
by
seven
thousand
five
hundred
and
fifty
one
dollars
and
reclass.
H
This
position,
the
Citizen
Service
Center
tech
position
has
approved
in
terms
of
pay
by
UGA
and
that
portion
will
become
a
permanent
member
of
the
CCG
TV,
and
we
would
have
two
people
in
CCTV
to
help
us
continue
to
provide
the
programming
and
transparency
that
the
citizens
have
come
to
enjoy
here
with
the
city.
That
is
the
basis
of
this
request.
He's.
A
W
Hello
good
afternoon,
everyone
I'm
Haley
Henderson,
the
current
assistant
director
for
the
Columbus
Georgia
convention.
Trade
Center,
also
have
with
me
mr.
Larry
Campbell,
as
well
as
our
finance
director
Ryan
parks,
as
stated
we're
here
to
talk
about
the
reclassification
of
the
accounting
technician
g12
to
an
office
manager
of
g14.
W
The
accounting
technician
currently
does
all
the
normal
functions
and
accounting
tags.
This
community
things
be
from
accounts,
receivables,
accounts,
payables,
collects
and
receives
funds,
journal,
entries,
etc.
Now,
I
want
you
to
keep
in
mind
at
the
trade
center.
We
have
our
own
set
of
financial
books
and
we
do
not
get
any
general
funds.
This
current
position
currently
is
also
taking
on
the
responsibilities
of
serving
as
the
HR
liaison
at
the
trade
center.
Disqus
disposition
must
have
working
knowledge
of
HR
law
dollars
or
workers,
comp
FMLA
guidelines
and
other
additional
information.
W
This
current
position
also
enters
all
employee
information
in
our
database
and
maintains
all
important
employee
files
there's
also.
This
current
position
also
maintains
the
repairs
of
weekly
payroll
monitors,
all
vacation,
sick
and
any
comp
time,
since
a
good
portion
of
this
job
is
similar
to
what
an
important
climate
coordinator
or
administrator
coordinator
does.
We
saw
that
this
reclassification
of
an
office
manager
to
a
g14
will
be
more
sufficient
to
the
description
of
this
job.
A
D
D
And
glad
to
see
my
old
friend
back
in
place,
we'll
get
a
chance
to
see
each
other
a
few
events
down
there.
Everything
I
think
I
talked
so
long
last
time,
I
miss
saying
hello
to
you,
but
everything
looks
good
and
just
continue
to
plan.
I
have
everything
in
writing
for
us.
So
we
know
what's
going
on
and.
A
W
I
B
V
Welcome
thank
you
good
afternoon.
Everyone
ready
for
questions
if
you'd
like
to
throw
them
at
me.
This
position
was
put
on
the
books
last
year
around
this
time
it
was
approved
by
UGA
and
just
going
off
the
recommendation
to
move
this
person
up
to
the
g17
they're
acting
in
a
capacity
is
assisting
with
bookings
overseeing
all
the
part-time
staff.
Taking
on
tremendous
responsibility
for
the
event
days,
as
well
as
leading
days
leading
up
to
the
events.
K
B
K
V
Eventually,
I
will.
There
are
several
things
that
I've
been
asked
to
look
at
coming
in
from
from
a
30,000
foot
view
of
the
entire
operation.
Okay
and
I
know
that
there
have
been
discussions
previously
from
the
former
director
regarding
some
position
that
he
thought
would
best
serve
the
facilities,
the
Civic
Center
and
specifically,
as
well
as
the
ice
rink
and
I'm.
Looking
at
those
right
now.
Okay,
all
right.
H
H
D
A
J
H
H
A
A
A
B
B
A
B
V
J
H
A
H
L
Council
when
we
presented
the
healthcare
update
week
or
so
ago
and
talked
about
what
we
were
planning
for
and
FY
18,
we
also
intended
to
mention
one
of
the
things
that
we're
doing
is
a
good
problem
that
we
have
in
a
growing
problem
in
terms
of
the
number
of
members
that
attend
the
health
and
wellness
center.
So
we
have
a
good
problem
in
that
the
number
of
folks
that
are
attending
there
is
growing,
but
as
you
grow,
that
also
presents
some
issues.
L
L
Basically,
it
says
the
respect
that
you
honor
your
appointment,
that
you
come
on
time
when
you
say
you're
going
to
come
and
that,
if
you're
not
going
to
show
that
you
call
at
a
reasonable
time
and
say
I'm
not
going
to
show
and
if
you
need
to
reschedule
you're
planning,
you
reschedule.
So
that's
what
this
policy
is.
It
puts
in
place
a
policy
at
the
health
and
wellness
center
called
a
cancellation
and
no-show
policy
with
that
policy.
It
also
does
have
penalty.
L
If,
after
your
third
did,
you
go
your
first,
your
first
call-out
or
the
first
time
you
don't
show
and
don't
call
there
is
nothing
the
second
time
you
don't
show
you
don't
call,
but
as
but
if
you
continue
that
pattern,
but
what
happens
is
when
you
don't
show
up
for
a
scheduled
visit,
that's
a
spot
that
somebody
else
could
have
had
someone
else
that
had
a
child
that
was
sick.
Somebody
else
that
really
needs
to
get
in
that
time,
but
because
you
as
a
patient,
fail
to
cancel
that
visit,
then
that
they
missed
that
slot.
L
So
that's
what
we're
trying
to
tweak,
because
we
have
so
many
folks
that
are
coming
in
utilizing
the
health
and
wellness
center.
We
want
everybody
to
get
the
best
opportunity
that
they
can
service
policy,
puts
in
place
a
no-show
and
cancellation
policy
that
puts
little
teeth
into
it.
At
a
certain
point,
the
employee
would
be
charged
the
fee
if
they
fail
to
show
up,
and
they
say
they
fail
to
cancel
their
visit
and.
H
A
L
A
H
That's
that's
what
I
was
going
to
say.
Our
policy
is
not
as
strict
as
the
private
sector
policy.
So
if
you've
got
enough,
I
have
an
appointment
tomorrow.
I
mean
it's
understandable
that
you
may
something
they
come
up
in
the
middle
of
the
night
and
you
can't
make
the
appointment
tomorrow
at
ten
o'clock.
But
if
you
call
by
nine
o'clock
a.m.
tomorrow
morning,
you're
good
yeah.
A
Know
I
think
the
more
I
really
can't
ever
believe
the
more
our
employees
find
out
about
the
different
types
of
uses.
They
can
access
that
health
and
wellness
center
for
I.
Think
it's
going
to
do
a
tremendous
job
of
holding
down
their
out-of-pocket
and
and
it'll
help
us,
because
we'll
get
the
critical
mass,
because
more
folks
will
be
going
and
by
us
I
don't
mean
the
city
government
I
just
mean
it
will
help
the
entire
population
of
employees
right.
