Description
February 23, 2015, City Council Meeting
B
A
D
E
I
just
wanted
to
address
some
comments
that
were
made
by
members
of
the
city
council
regarding
the
secretary's
contract
that
I
have
read
in
the
princeton
herald.
As
we
know,
the
relationship
between
the
city,
council
and
school
committee,
an
administration
has
been
strained
for
a
number
of
years.
We're
really
looking
forward
to
kind
of
getting
rid
of
all
that
and
working
together
with
the
council
and
the
administration
to
move
the
district
forward
which
benefits
everyone.
E
So
it
was
concerning
to
me
to
read
some
of
the
comments
that
were
made
by
some
members
of
the
council
when
members
of
the
school
committee
were
not
able
to
attend
the
meeting
to
address
them,
because
we
were
having
our
own
meeting
that
night
based
on
several
cancellations
for
snow
and
that's
it.
So
I
just
kind
of
wanted
to
address
some
of
the
issues
and
clarify
and
correct
some
of
the
misconceptions
that
are
out
there.
E
When
we
have
negotiations
with
our
unions,
they're,
not
quick,
they're,
not
easy.
As
counselors
and
cyprus
knows
they
can
go
on
for
months
and
months
and
months,
and
this
contract
is
no
different.
The
contract
prior
to
this
one
actually
went
through
negotiations,
mediation
and
arbitration.
The
arbitration
award
was
handed
down.
Okay,
it
was
not
determined
by
the
school
committee.
It
was
handed
down.
It
was
agreed
upon
by
the
parties
when
we
met
for
this
contract.
We
hoped
for
their
outcome
again,
going
through
part
of
progress
and
into
mediation.
E
This
frozen
steps
were
only
there
for
the
length
of
that
frozen
contract,
so
bringing
them
back
had
nothing
to
do
with
anything
else,
but
the
fact
that
they
were
frozen
because
of
arbitration
and
then
brought
back.
We
did
a
great
small
salary
increases
that
were
aligned
with
what
we
were
offering
with
other
unions.
Longevity
lasso
was
eliminated
for
new
employees
enrolled
in
employees
who
already
had
it.
This
was
done
in.
E
I'm
not
sure,
but
councilman
freina
meant
that
he
said
we
put
everything
back
into
the
contract
that
was
taken
out
of,
but
that
is
not
true
and
councilman.
Arkham
stated
that
he
was
angry
for
what
the
secretary
said
to
work.
But
what
he
may
forget
is
that
every
union
has
to
come
to
the
table
and
every
union
negotiates
contracts
and
this
particular
group
we
seem
to
have
to
go
to
longer
negotiations
and
mediations
with.
So
it's
not
what
they're
enjoying
it's.
What
all
of
our
meetings
both
are
in
the
process
of
negotiating
contracts.
E
As
for
councilman
pavicuo,
I
understand
that
he
had
wanted
to
give
the
the
secretaries
more
or
wish
that
he
could
give
them
more,
and
you
know
we
wish
that
we
could
give
everyone
more,
but
we're
not
in
charge
of
the
persons
and
by
all
means,
if
you
want
to
give
us
more
so
that
we
can
give
more
we'll
take
it.
E
But
it's
just
not
how
it
works,
and
I
understand
that
you're,
your
wife
is
one
of
our
employees,
and
so
you
may
get
some
version
of
things
that
you
know
has
frustrated
as
frustrating
to
you
here.
But
I
just
want
you
to
understand
that
we
go
through
these
negotiation
processes
and
we
would
love
them
and
we
have,
in
the
past,
asked
for
members
of
the
council
to
sit
in
our
negotiations
so
that
you
can
understand
the
process
and.
E
And
you
know,
council
and
lenny
made
a
point
that
the
city
council
is
not
looking
at
our
contracts
to
micromanage
us
and
he's
correct.
I
believe
what
you've
seen
from
the
contracts
that
we've
negotiated
in
the
last
several
years
is
that
we're
being
fiscally
responsible
and
we
are
trying
to
make
changes
that
are
for
the
betterment
of
everyone
based
on
what
we
have
and
that's
what
we
were
trying
to
do
in
the
future.
I
would
really
really
love
if
members
of
the
council,
if
you
have
questions
already.
E
C
Your
finance
representative
was
in
this
room
telling
us
about
the
contract.
I
specifically
asked
him:
does
this
contract
put
back
in
all
or
most
of
the
things
that
were
taken
out
of
the
previous
contract?
His
answer
was
yes,
so
there
was
no
misinformation
given
to
us.
The
fact
of
the
matter
is:
a
year
ago
we
voted
on
a
contract
that
throws
steps
took
out,
pay
raises
that
took
out
a
lot
of
benefits.
Then
a
year
later
came
back
before
us
and
put
them
put
some
of
those
back
in
it
eliminated
those
cuts.
C
I
had
several
questions
as
to
what
changed
in
the
last
12
months,
the
facility,
basically
a
reversal
of
the
school
committee,
switch.
That
was
my
question.
The
forge
of
the
nominees
was
here
to
answer
that
question.
I
understand
you
know
we
have
a
lot
of
snow,
a
lot
of
meaning
a
lot
of
issues,
but
we
want
to
move
forward
too,
and
I
remember
the
vision
for
that
woman
standing
before
us
telling
us
that
if
she
did
not
accept
that
contract,
more
benefits
would
have
been
taken
away
from
her.
I.
C
C
A
request
by
a
councilman
who
wanted
to
find
out
about
zoning
violations
that
were
issued
to
the
applicant
since
that
information
did
not
show
up
in
front
of
the
committee.
Even
though
the
committee
voted
to
send
us
a
console
request
that
we
began
back
in
the
public
works.
So
all
the
information
that
councilman
cycles
wanted
is
up
in
the
okay.
C
C
I
apologize,
I
believe
it
was
disclosed,
but
maybe
not
that
there
is
a
pending
matter
in
the
municipal
court
regarding
zoning
violation
and
that
the
request
for
abandonment
of
the
street
is
part
of
a
proposed
resolution
to
that
matter.
So
the
request
for
abandonment
is
part
and
parcel
of
a
proposed
plan
to
change
the
zoning
for
the
other
parcel
to
get
that
property
into
compliance.
C
D
C
Second
thing
that
I
had
asked,
I
believe
mr
quinlan
and
mr
cruz
about
was
other
possible
options
short
of
transferring
ownership
of
the
property,
such
as
leasing.
C
From
cyclists,
I
did
look
into
that.
The
city
could
lease
it
could
sell
it
as
long
as
they
follow
the
charter
provisions
on
valuation,
which
are
actually
similar
to
the
abandonment
provisions
valuation,
so
the
city
could
sell
it
or
at
least
if
they
chose,
and
the
council
ultimately
has
the
power
to
approve
or
disapprove.
The
request
for
amendments.
C
B
C
Okay,
we
have
we.
D
A
B
C
D
C
D
C
The
next
item
is
a
resolution
authorizing
the
city
to
enter
into
agreement
with
the
rhode
island
department
of
environmental
management
on
rebuilding
a
broken
brand
eco
ramp
at
stillhouse
cove.
This.
F
Myself,
but
you
know,
the
director
of
administration
is
a
hundred
thousand,
so
with
that
ratio
that
should
not
be
an
issue.
I
was
concerned
that
I
was
going
to
be
a
considerable
model.
Okay,
thank
you.
B
C
Yes,
yes,
next
is
the
ordinance
ratifying
the
school
contract
with
the
secretary
of
state.
C
F
C
Which
will
save
mutual
dollars
and
energy
costs
and
we're
going
to
be
burning
one
of
those
rules
and
we
went
there
and
explained
what
it
was
going
to
do
and
they
approved
it.
So
we
were
we're
moving
forward
and
working
together,
so
it
was.
I
think
it
was
unanimous,
so
we
are
working
together
yeah.
C
There
were
some
issues
with
these
secretarial
bombing
unit
last
time
and
I
agree
with
the
councilman
that
there
was
some
hard
feelings
and
when
he
did
ask
those
questions,
he
was
not
confrontational
last
week,
so
I'm
going
to
leave
it
at
that.
Just
want
you
to
know
that
spirit
of
moving
forward.
B
D
A
C
A
A
C
A
C
City
reimburses
at
a
rate
per
square
foot
and
the
city's
costs
would
be
determined
obviously
by
the
first
square
foot
decision-wise.
They
would
be
determined
by
the
appropriation
made
by
the
mayor
and
the
council,
essentially
sidewalks
would
be
replaced
on
that
system
until
the
money
ran
out
the
rate
at
which
of
the
reimbursement.
The
ordinance
proposal
says
will
be
determined
by
the
city
council.
So
if
this
passes,
the
next
thing
that
we
would
have
come
before
us
is
a
recommendation
from
the
director
of
her
square
foot
reimbursement
for
sidewalks.
I
mean
we
would.
C
C
C
Councilman,
thank
you
brother.
As
I
said
when
former
councilman
lee
was
playing
the
dog
park,
I
think
the
planning
stages
of
the
best
part
recommend
my
colleagues
putting
this
through
and
it
was
a
good
foundation
to
build
off
to
create
a
sidewalk
program
with
the
iron
details,
the
next
him
for
being
so
corrupt
and
very,
very
rewarding.
C
C
C
C
You
mean
how
if
there
are
more
requests
and
there's
money
to
go
around
right,
my
opinion,
I
think
some
type
of
oversight
either
by
the
administration
or
public
works
department.
To
say
we
agree
that
your
sidewalk
needs
to
be
upgraded
and
you're
on.
C
C
C
We're
not
having
a
list
the
only
way
we
address
it,
those
homes
that
sidewalks
near
schools
or
that
are
highly
traveled.
They
get
preferential
treatment
like
right.
Yes,
so
it's
not
the
date.
I
have
my
sidewalk
will
cop
the
day
that
I
engage
with
the
contractor.
Who
does
my
sidewalk
if
I
live
somewhere.
C
C
C
C
Thank
you
president.
I
believe
I
asked
a
similar
question
to
me
and
mr
mason
was
here
and
I
think
they
have
to
be
pre-approved
so
before
they
do
any
kind
of
work.
They
have
to
go,
see
the
dpw
director
and
he
has
to
approve
them
going
forward
with
any
kind
of
work.
C
C
I
have
reservations
about
this
program
right
now
and
I
know
I
was
born
in
committee,
but
after
giving
a
consideration
and
some
of
the
things
that
I
think
need
more
funding,
such
as
show
removal
rule
a
area
of
creating
a
program
and
take
money
away
from
something
like
that
in
order
to
repair
sidewalks.
In
my
opinion,
I
don't
know
the
timing
of
this
is
right,
and
I
know
there's
no
money
being
set
aside
at
this
point,
but
I
I.
F
C
Thank
you,
yeah.
You
are
also
afraid.
Thank
you,
mr
president.
It's
my
colleagues
who,
I
think
have
reservations
on
this
program.
This
is
a
framework
for
us
to
build
the
program,
not
necessarily
a
program.
I
have
similar
reservations
that
some
of
my
colleagues
do
about
paying
for
it
figuring
out
where,
in
the
budget
we're
going
to
secure
funds
to
pay
for
it.
C
In
reality,
we
might
not
be
able
to
enable
this
niche.
This
may
be
something
that
we
have
to
take.
100
000
involved
two
years
out
to
allocate
to
this
project.
We
may
have
to
put
seed
money
in
and
they
have
to
go
after
grants
using
our
grant
writer
like
the
dog
park.
We
don't
have
a
dog
parker.
We
have
a
rule
of
law
on
books
to
have
enough.
Then
it's
up
to
the
body
to
decide.
Okay,
is
it
the
right
time
to
have
government?
C
One
of
my
issues
is
not
necessarily
that
that's
the
process
we
have
to
take,
but
I
don't
have
any
sidewalks
in
my
district
I
mean
our
biggest
problem
with
kirby
and
kirk
and
that's
my
only
presentation
that
doesn't.
C
There's
some
program
that
would
provide
you
know
something
in
one
district
and
you
can't
there's
no
way
to
replace
first,
even
if
it's
a
ten
percent
culture,
it
doesn't
really
matter.
So
that's
my
only.
C
Killed
ourselves
15
times,
and
there
were
a
lot
of
elderly
residents
who
lived
there
and
one
guy
who
saw
it
was
laughing
sardinia,
killed
all
three
and
one's
left
inside
them,
but
I
can't
afford
it.
I
mean
I
think
the
program
has
to
start
somewhere.
You
have
to
develop
a
framework
somewhere,
and
I
agree
with
the
council
marina
in
that
it's
a
start.
Maybe
we
haven't
worked
out
the
details.
Maybe
we
haven't
found
the
money
yet,
but
over
the
years
we've
cut
expenses
on
the
city
side
and
we've
done
a
great
job
of
doing
that.
C
But
in
essence
by
cutting
expenses
we
created
another
tax
on
the
taxpayers
and
that
they
have
to
fix
things
themselves.
The
fact
that
there's
no
50
50
program
is
a
tax
on
the
tax
base,
because
they
have
to
do
everything
that
they
want.
I
think
the
fact
that
you're
just
signing
the
program
and
possible-
if
you
know
you
want
to
make
an
amendment,
ask
working.
I
think
that's
a
great
idea
for
certain
influence.
C
C
C
I
just
I
I
look
at
this
and
I
see
the
number
of
times
the
word
sidewalk
is
mentioned,
and
I
think
it
really
needs
kind
of
a
careful
drafting
that
might
be
better
as
a
separate
ordinance.
I
just
don't
know
it
isn't
just
one
place
where
we
have
the
word
curbing
and
you'd
want
to.
C
C
We
don't
really
care
about
curving
on
the
way
to
school
right.
We
might
have
some
other
priority
for
curving,
for
which
ones
are
done.
First,
the
I
don't
know
how
the
reimbursement
would
probably
go
on
linear
feet
rather
than
square
feet,
so
I
would
really.
This
was
put
together
largely
by
the
public
works
director.
This
system-
and
I
I
would
like
him
to
to
if
the
solicitor
feels
it
would
be
easier.
D
C
C
C
C
I
have
a
question:
yes,
the
police
contract
with
the
administration
currently
negotiating
that
and
which
attorney's
representing
the
city
police
negotiations.
I
believe
that
the
police.
C
A
D
C
D
C
C
I
will
circulate
an
email
and
try
to
get
back
to
you
as
soon
as
I
can.
C
C
Okay,
then,
the
next
one
was
a
procedure
for
coordination
in
the
police
contract
arbitration
between,
as
as
we
understood
from
the
last
meeting
attorney
robertson,
was
going
to
be
the
attorney
arguing
the
case
for
the
city,
while
mr
rodraska
was
going
to
be
the
attorney
sitting
on
the
panel
hearing
the
arbitration
I
understand
there
was
one
remaining
item
that
I
explained
this
will
be
worked
out.
That's
still.
C
Okay,
because
one
of
the
points
that
mr
burgaska
made
at
the
finance
committee
meeting
was
that
there
needed
to
there
needed
to
be
a
good
preparation
that
we're
going
to
go
to
arbitration
and
that
that
was
time
consuming.
C
So
you
anticipated
anticipation,
prepared
and
in
enough
time.
C
C
D
C
C
I
asked
solicitor
christian
to
find
out
along
with
you
if
they
can
be
fine.
This
is
the
first
one
I
spoke
over
the
weekend,
but
I'd
like
a
chance
to.
I
did
some
little
homework.
So
do
you
want
me
to
do
that
first
or
whatever.
C
There
was
a
tv
channel
before
over
the
weekend,
which
says
lamar
who's
the
advisor
builds
and
owns
both
shelters.
That's
a
quote
from
the
tv
builds
and
owns.
C
C
C
C
I
did
follow
up
with
the
phone
call
to
barbara
palace
is
now
the
spokesman
for.
C
She
she
gave
me
the
impression
that
perhaps
lamar
doesn't
own
the
shelters
but
there's
some
kind
of
contractual
relationship
between
lamar
and
ripta,
and
that
this
has
been
an
unprecedented
in
their
view
and
they
don't
have
the
manpower
or
the
budget
to
remove
the
snow
from
the
bus
stops
and
they're
kind
of
relying
on
the
local
cities
and
talents.
When
the
landing
goes
to
do
that.
A
C
C
C
We're
getting
more
from-
and
I
think,
probably
sometimes
getting
the
same
amount,
so
lots
of
psychos.
I
would
I
agree
with
richard
and
I
think
we
all
if
they're
not
if
the
shelters
are
clear,
then
lamar
will
be
fine
and
if
they're
not
the
real
owner
of
the
shelter,
then
I'm
sure
they'll.
Let
us
know
as
their
fines
melt
up
closer
and
pops
play
here
and
say
one
has
a
three-foot
mound
in
front
of
the
curb
that
exists
throughout
the
city.
That's
not
part
of
the
shelter.
C
Between
the
shelter
and
the
street,
you
know,
ricky
can
come
back
and
say
well,
we'll
play
the
shelter
when
the
city
plays
there.
So
people
can
access
the
bus
from
the
shelter
to
the
street,
it's
all
good
to
play
at
the
shelter.
But
if
the
street
isn't
clear,
no
one
can
pour
that
bus
in
you
can't
just
follow
that
real
quickly.
The
bus
shelters
are
open
facing
the
street.
C
Standing
on
top
of
the
berm
waiting
for
the
bus,
but
the
problem
is
even
if
you
can't
shut
them,
it's
still
going
to
be
a
three
foot
drift
from
the
curb
to
you
know
about
this
wide
from
the
curb
to
where
the
bus
is
going
to
be
so
now.
How
does
that
person
get
over
that
so
whose
responsibility
is
it
from
the
curb
I'm
clearly
cities?
So
I
mean.
C
And
then
we
would
have
to
maybe
finally
have
the
mob
or
they
could
send
a
just.
You
know
notice
to
bring
them
both
if
they
have
any
protection
fighters.
C
You
know
whatever
what
that
says
about
the
responsibility
of
the
maintenance
of
the
shelter.
I
don't
know
all
I
noticed
in
one
of
the
minutes
of
the
executive
meeting.
They
started
an
agreement
with
omar
to
remove
you
know,
I
think
it's
true.
C
C
Well,
I
I
made
a
suggestion
to
vice
president:
do
you
think
it's
a
valid
one
or
not,
but
suggestion
was
you
know
it
seems
to
be
a
safety
issue,
but
people
put
this
before
safety
services
and
I
could
ask
a
representative
of
our
company
for
the
city.
If
we
could
ask
these
questions,
perhaps
bring
them
a
contract
that
they
have
or
permission
to
hire
these
bus
shelters
up.
C
C
B
I
was
listening
with
great
interest
about
the
sidewalk
thing,
as
many
of
you
have
been
on.
I've
been
doing
this
a
long
time
and
every
year
I
come
before
you
about
this
non-sidewalk
I'd.
Much
rather
see
you
put
money
towards
a
piece
of
equipment
that
can
clear
the
sidewalks.
Maybe
it's
because
I'm
a
lunch.
D
B
F
C
A
city
I
believe
they
got
one
and
a
half
percent
retroactive,
so.
F
It's
just
something
to
keep
in
mind
the
administration.
If
they're
walking
back
to
the
table
talk
with
us.
A
C
Mr
president,
the
administration
has
received
a
number
of
requests
this
this
month
for
continuation
of
service.
We
have
to
read
through
them.
C
Submitted
his
request
appears
to
be
duly
submitted,
along
with
documentation
evidencing
his
ability,
and
we
would.
A
A
D
C
D
C
B
C
B
B
A
First,
I
want
everybody
to.
I
want
to
announce
the
trash
amnesty.
My
subcommittee
meeting
will
be
wednesday
february
25th
at
6
30
p.m.
A
A
C
However,
I
can
answer
some
of
your
questions
back
in
the
mid
90s
under
the
clinton
administration,
the
housing
that
we
traditionally
think
of
as
elderly
housing
like
mexico
manor,
for
example,
all.
C
To
allow
for
diversification
for
elderly
and
handicapped
people,
and
unfortunately,
what
has
happened
is
handicapped
people
has
been
stretched
out
to
include
recovering
drugs,
people
who
were
recovered
from
drug
use,
alcoholism,
mental
issues.
It's
been
growing
to
the
point
where
almost
anyone
who
can
say
that
they
are
a
victim
of
alcoholism
or
drug
use
or
any
of
those
type
of
issues
and
they
qualify
as
disabled
utilize.
Those
apartments.
C
It's
a
problem,
that's
been
ongoing
for
decades
now
and
you're,
seeing
more
and
more
of
those
type
of
people
who
would
make
meth
or
to
the
average
person
who
doesn't
know
any
better.
They
look
healthy.
They
look
like
they
shouldn't
be
there,
but
unfortunately,
because
of
federal
deregulation
of
those
living
facilities,
they
unfortunately
qualify
so
clearly
it's
something
that
we
wouldn't
want
to
happen,
but
unfortunately,
the
way
things
are
right.
Now
these
people
do
call
back
to
that
housing.
C
A
I
think
that,
maybe
that's
a
good
idea.
I
have
this.
Is
wool
erosion,
okay,
the
fine
artwork
dragon
lines
you
see,
if
they're
being
followed
in
all
housing
crisis,
whether
it
be
by
the
city
or
by
individuals.
C
C
Which
I
think
it
is
everywhere,
can
the
city
seek
any
legal
recourse
in
the
form
of
reimbursement
for
the
time
the
crisis
police
have
to
spend
in
its
surveillance
and
operation
in
order
to
arrest
the
individuals
who
are
responsible
for
the
creation
of
the
drug?
During
the
can
we
seek
regression
from
the
cooperation
at
home?
I
mean.
C
I
think,
in
order
to
have
an
attempted
liability
on
behalf
of
that
manner,
you
would
have
to
share
some
type
of
gross
management
stuff.
They
need
to
do
something
that
was,
in
other
words
right
in
their
face
that
they
should
have
known
about
all
along.
As
director
lopez
has
said,
you
know,
just
by
being
a
former
actor,
it
doesn't
disqualify
you.
So
it's
a
tough.
C
F
F
C
To
see
senior
housing
places
in
my
award
and
the
same,
it's
also
a
problem
there
just
have
there
are
people
who
tend
to
be
louder
if
nothing
else,
but
I
I
wonder
if
it
might
make
sense
to
invite
somebody
from
hud
or
lingual
illusion
or
whoever
to
their
ordinance
committee
meeting
or
the
finance
committee
meeting
or
safety
services
or
something
and
get
some
answers
to
these
questions,
because
it's
a
persistent
well,
she
was
this
authority
of
the
big
one.
C
No,
no,
she
might
know
the
rules
that
the
entrance
rules
better
than
we
do.
C
Thank
you,
not
the
director,
but
I
don't
know
if
you
remember,
when
we
were
doing
our
tours
of
all
the
senior
centers,
we
were
in
a
long
manner.
There
were
three
young
people
who
came
up
to
us
who
were
talking
to
us
about
buddhism
and
how
they
were
from
providence
and
they
were
living
in
the
manner.
C
D
C
The
first
item
is
the
use
of
the
tax
letter
to
promote
recycling
with
other
city
programs.
There
is
an
ordinance
that
requires
the
mayor
to
use
the
tax
letter
to
promote
recycling,
and
we
know
that
the
administration
is
in
favor
of
this,
but
somehow
it
gets
forgotten
so
we'd
like
to
have
it
along
the
agenda
until
the
tax
order
goes
out,
and
hopefully
it
won't
be
forgotten
this
year
or
we
can
do
something
with
the
back
to.
F
Recycling
plus
other
messages
we
wish
to
send
to
the
public
is
this
wrong?
Yeah
constantly
we
discussed
that
last
year.
I
believe,
and
I
think
one
of
the
issues
was
not
what
was
going
to
be
printed.
I
don't
know
what's
going
on
front
of
the
back
of
the
tax
level
and
if
it
required
another
piece
of
literature,
the
cost
that
would
incur
having
more
than
one
piece
going
on
to
the
taxpayer.
F
That
was
a
factor,
so
I
think
we
need
to
set
up
guidelines
or
our
game
plan
on
how
we
might
send
it
out.
That's
not
going
to
be
an
additional
course
and
yet
we'll
be
effective
for
what
you
want
to
achieve.
C
Well,
I
agree,
I
think
we
went
through
that
you
know
we're
talking
about
the
blank
side.
The
mayor
usually
takes
up
one
side
for
his
letter
so
that
it
wouldn't
would
involve
a
small
amount
more
of
printing,
but
I
think,
would
be
well
worth
it.
We
all,
I
think,
all
every
resident
received
a
recycling
letter
within
the
last
couple
of
months
when
there
was
a
problem
with
the
trash
that
loads
were
getting
rejected
recycling.
C
F
Because
I
know
when
I
explode
through
our
taxes,
tax
collector,
who
generates
the
the
document
he
had
concerns
about
howard,
you
know
the
cost
of
having
it
printed
on
the
back
of
the
additional
cost,
I'm
just
having
a
letter
from
the
mayor,
I
think
also.
I
hope
we
are
probably
checking
into
it
tomorrow.
I
hope
we're
utilizing
our
web
page
more
efficiently
to
have
information
on
there
as
well.
F
C
Okay-
the
next
item
I
had
was,
I
want
to
get
a
report
from
the
administration
on
the
citations
and
fines
for
failing
to
clear
sidewalks.
C
Which
reflects
the
period
from
january
26
2015
to
february
23rd
at
0
6
45
hours,
which
is
6
35
in
the
morning.
C
We
had
380
accidents
during
the
snow
band
and
I'm
sorry
we
had
a
pretty
excuse
me.
Let
me
stick
that
here
we
have
our
snow
band
citations
202
for
a
total
of
approximately
seventeen
thousand
dollars.
The
citations
are
about
eighty
five
dollars
a
pop.
C
C
Cyber
violations
of
businesses,
32
businesses,
18
of
which
were
given
20
fines
and
14,
were
given
250
clients
that
total
sidewalk
violations
of
62,
which
are
equal
about
4
400
and
that's
the
information
we
have
right
now.
I
can
give
the
city
clerk
a
copy
of
this
that
she
can
distribute
to
you.
If
you
wish
confusing,
I
thought
that
202
people
were
fine.
C
Now
those
are
202
residents,
snowbank
citations,
it's
not
clear
as
to
which
oh,
it's
not
a
sidewalk,
it's
a
parking
industry
when
there
was
a
snowman
right,
oh
okay,
and
and
so
how
how
what
were
the
sidewalk
numbers
190
morning,
letters
32
businesses
were
fine,
30,
30
residences
for
a
total
of
62
five
pound
violations.
C
Now,
do
you
do
you
track
whether
the
the
fines
are
actually
because
those
people
could
appeal
to
municipal
court?
You
track
how
many
people
actually
paid
the
fine
and
how
many
kids
we
don't
track
that
out
of
our
mayor's
office.
I'm
sure
if
we
asked
the
court
to
see
what
that
would
be,
what
that
would
look
like.
C
My
last
point
is:
I
got
a
couple
of
calls
from
people
that
when
they
call.
C
C
Okay,
so
what
I
can
tell
you
is
that
during
storms
depends
where
it
is
and
how
serious
things
are
we
open?
We
sometimes
open
up
the
emergency
management
center
out
of
the
fire
department
and
that's
when
you've
heard
that
we
issue
a
hotline
number
for
situations
that
develop
during
the
storm.
C
C
I
don't
know
how
many
lines
they
have,
but
I
do
know
that
they
have
only
a
few
people,
answering
phones
and
sometimes,
if
they've
got
all
those
people
are
tied
up
because
people,
you
know
it's
like
chicken
little
this
guy's
falling
because
they're
speaking
to
him,
they
can
get
overwhelmed.
They
might
go
to
voicemail
and
depend
on
how
busy
they
are.
They
may
get
a
fall
that
day
or
the
next
day,
so
public
works
is
still
the
best
number
for
them
to
call.
C
Obviously,
as
you
know,
city
hall
is
open.
During
these
things,
we
don't
close.
The
mayor's
staff
is
here
as
well
we're
receiving
phone
calls
and
in
the
case
where
we
may
have
to
leave,
because
you
know
at
the
end
of
the
day
or
we're
exhausted,
we
have
left
a
recording
that
picks
up
and
directs
people
to
call
the
emergency
center
if
it's
open
or
public
works.
If
you
know,
if
we
don't
answer
in
the
mayor's
office,
is
this?
C
Is
this
an
issue
that
you
work
on
or
jeff
peron
works
on
or
both
of
you,
because
I
sent
a
fairly
constituents
detailed
email
about
how
she
called
I
think
three
times
and
two
out
of
the
three
times
she
was
unable
to
to
leave
a
message,
and
that
just
seems
like
I
mean
what
you
said,
sounds
fine.
It
gets
referred
to
voicemail
and
I
can
understand
they
don't
get
a
call
back
right
away,
but
in
these
cases
there
wasn't
even
a
voicemail
and
there
wasn't
a
person
who
would
take
a
message.
C
I
can't
speak
to
that
particular
situation.
Sometimes
people
think
that,
because
they
got
four
six
one,
one
thousand
they're
getting
public
works
or
they
get
in
the
mayor's
office,
but
four
six
one.
One
thousand
downstairs
and
if
they
haven't
had
an
opportunity
to
set
up
from
the
night
before
or
as
in
many
of
the
cases
during
these
storms
they've
been
weekend
storms
they
that
may
have
been
what
happened
there
if
they
call
public
works
directly,
which
I
don't
know,
the
main
number
of
things.
C
Eight
zero
three
one
zero,
which
is
the
mayor's
office.
Looking
number
obviously
they'll
go
straight
to
the
mayor's
office
and
then
up
there
they'll
get
that
they'll
get
that.
So
I
suspect
councilman
that
it
must
have
been
that
461-1000
main
city
hall
number,
and
that's
probably
what
happened.
I
can't
say
with
certainty
but
based
on
my
years
of
experience
here
right
I'd,
be
comfortable,
saying
that
that's
probably
what
happened.
Could
I
ask
the
other
members
of
the
council
if
they
have
any
trouble.
C
I
was
going
to
prosper.
I'm
a
little
confused
supposed
to
go
through
the
that
bit.
Emergency
management
coordinator,
which
is
constant,
concerto
and
councilman
argento,
will
be
the
central
point
where
he
moves
everything
over
to
the
administration.
Now
I'm
hearing
is
emergency
management
center
and
that
there's
a
command
center,
and
so
I
don't
know
what
we're
supposed
to
do
anymore.
I
directed
all
my
calls
to
the
university
coordinator.
C
Then
we
have
a
storm
on
the
council,
lays
out
they
get
touched
with
jeff
and
that's
it's
been
working
pretty
well.
The
issue
constant
status
brings
up.
Is
it's
not
a
problem
when,
during
the
day
when
city
halls
open,
I
think
whether
the
storm
hits
on
saturday
sunday
or
in
the
evening
and
and
constituents
panic?
C
You
know,
city
hall
is
going
to
be
closed
and
at
that
point
you
know
who
do
they
call
and
of
course,
the
constituent
affairs
individual
jeff
norman
was
not
going
to
be
at
work,
so
you
said
well,
you
should
set
up
some
type
of
hotline,
especially
on
a
week
during
the
evening
that
when
there's
a
storm
citizens
realize
they
can
call
that
number
and
get
quick
results.
C
I
don't
know
if,
if
that's
something
that
we
we
would
look
into,
I
mean
saying
a
whole
separate
line
and
who
are
they
going
to
call
and
who's
going
to
make
it
in
the
whole
nine
yards?
I
mean
these
people
already
have
a
few
options,
and
really
the
best,
especially
for
flowing
the
best
thing
to
do,
is
really
all
it
works
because
they
are
working
then
they'll,
work
through
the
night
there'll
be
someone
there.
If
we
have
people
out
at
three
in
the
morning
in
that
person's.
C
Solution
so
it's
not
complicated
serving
our
previous
council,
we
were
told
to
go
through
the
coordinator
to
see
wall.
I
mean
if
that
doesn't
work
or
something
happens,
then
fine,
if
not,
I
don't
think
public
works
is
going
to
appreciate
any
hundreds
of
phone
calls
for
some
reason
at
all.
They
know
it's
snowing
they're
out
there
working
the
private
contracts
are
out
there.
A
C
Actually
have
listened
to
and
witnessed
our
constituent
press
director,
jeff
brown
handled,
hundreds
of
phone
calls
and
in
all
of
those
I
do
think
there
may
have
been
one
street
that
did
not
get
plowed
in
a
timely
manner,
so
these
calls
do
come
in
they
do
go
to
the
public
works.
The
highways
garage
I've
been
there.
I've
seen
the
calls
coming
in
there's
one.
C
The
phones,
everybody
else-
is
out
along
the
streets.
She
does
the
best
she
can.
We
have
dispatchers
out
on
the
road
checking
on
the
progress
of
the
trucks,
our
city
trucks,
our
vendors
they're
out
there
doing
the
best
I
can
people
getting
patient.
We
understand,
jeff
brown
does
yeoman's
work
in
calming
everyone
down
and
explaining
to
them
that
they're
sure,
okay
as
soon
as
possible,
having
a
different
phone
number,
I'm
not
sure
it
would
change
anything.
We
would
still
plot
the
streets
as
quickly
as
well
as
we
can.
C
C
Thank
you
president.
You
know
I
actually
commend
the
work
of
all
the
dpw
guys
that
we
have
they've
done
a
great
job.
I
think
you
know
one
thing
that
I
always
helped
me
put
into
perspective.
C
When
I
talk
to
a
constituent
is
I
have
to
live
with
a
person
who
expects
your
road
to
be
plowed
within
50
minutes
of
the
first
lake
falling
on
help,
and
what
helped
me
persuade
my
lovely
wife
was
the
protocol
that
the
city
goes
through
in
plowing
the
roads,
and
I
think
that's
something
that
we
should
probably
put
on
the
website
next
year,
because
we
did.
A
C
Job
with
the
school
protocols
when
schools
closed,
it
really
cleared
a
lot
of
confusion.
I
think
you
put
into
that
link
at
the
top.
It
says
you
know
how
to
know
when
your
roads
are
going
to
be
plotted.
If
you
live
on
the
main
thoroughfare,
it's
going
to
get
plowed
10
times
it's
over
and
over
it's
a
little
bit
of
secondary
meaning
and
at
least
give
them
a
definition
of
what
a
main
road
the
secondary
main
and
people
who,
like
you.
B
D
C
C
I
think
that's
a
really
good
idea,
because
when
I
explain
to
people
about
you
know
the
contractors
through
the
side
streets,
they
don't
get
called
until
you
know
so
three
inches
they're
paid
by
the
size
of
their
vehicle.
That's
why
there
are
pickups
on
your
your
side
street
when
there's
big
trucks
elsewhere,
that
people
got
it
and
when
they
get
home
yeah.
So
I
think
that's
a
very
good
suggestion
and
I
the
whole
thing
with
the
phone
calls.
C
C
D
C
Compliments
on
plowing
from
particularly
john
corson,
was
complimented
by
the
owner
of
little
falls
for
sending
truck
out
to
to
clear
in
front
of
his
business
so
that
he
can
have
a
business,
and
you
know
there
were
a
lot
of
problems
with
the
storm
or
people
thought
that
there
were
these
problems.
But
as
far
as
I
know,
no
one
got
hurt.
C
I
guess
what
we
call
the
first
responding
bpw
during
the
storms.
I
think
we've
had
issues
where
the
secondary
cleanup,
I
don't
think
has
been
up
to
par
and
even
yesterday
I
received
an
email
from
someone
requesting
just
take
a
ride
down
moran
street
and
look
at
it,
and
I
went
down
the
street
and
there's
two
tire
tracks
and
a
big
thing
of
ice
in
the
middle
nice
on
the
sides,
and
it's
been
a
week
since
I've
been
leaving
less
snow
and
I
don't
think
any
roads
at
cranston
should
should
look
like
that.
C
I
took
a
drive
down
magnolia
today
coming
back
from
france
and
east,
and
that
is
just
an
ice
cream
in
the
streets.
I
think
in
my
ward,
you
know
express
this
during
the
finance
committee,
where
the
streets
that
are
perfectly
acceptable
to
drive
down-
and
there
are
other
streets
that
are
just
horrible
and
I
don't
know
what
the
quality
control
is
being
implemented.
C
I
know
mr
coop
said
that
they
have
people
going
dispatchers
or
someone
going
out
to
check
on
one
of
the
plows,
but
there
has
something
has
to
be
done
where
a
day
or
two
days
later
we're
out
again
looking
at
the
streets
and
it's
really
too
bad.
Yesterday
it
was
a
sunday
because
it
really
missed
an
opportunity
to
really
clean
up
a
lot
of
the
streets
with
the
melting
that
was
going
on.
But
in
my
opinion
and
I'm
receiving
many
emails
and
phone
calls
about
this,
is
that
the
secondary
thing?
C
C
Again,
if
we
clean
up
the,
if
the
city
eventually
is
farming
or
we're
going
to
clean
off
the
shelters,
they're
still
not
available
on
the
street
because
of
the
three
foot
snow
grip,
that's
between
the
curb
and
the
street-
and
I
you
know,
I
understand
what
february's
when
it's
extraordinary
in
terms
of
snowfall.
But
again,
you
know
there
shouldn't
be
an
excuse
a
week
later
that
there's
two
tide
tracks
down
still.
C
A
truck
and
people
in
cars,
I'm
sure,
are
having
a
really
hard
time
with
these
streets.
So
I
hope
this
is
something
we
can
address
during
budget
cycle
and
going
forward
for
next.
C
Mr
president,
I
have
some
information
from
our
public
works
director,
ken
mason,
who
informed
me
that
the
control
communications
box
for
the
traffic
light
at
walnut
grove,
canada
according
to
rdot,
the
control
box,
has
arrived
and
will
be
installed
this
spring.
They
would
not
give
him
a
definite
date.
C
C
Just
to
let
you
know
before
february
snowfall
from
hell,
we
absolutely
asked
the
administration
to
put
together
a
wish
list
through
direct
admission
of
all
the
things
we
think
they
want,
and
the
one
thing
when
director
makes
it
come
before
us,
but
that,
let's
talk
about
the
question,
come
on
working
out
near
schools.
C
C
What
we
did
was
we
looked
at
the
schools
that
had
a
high
penetration
of
walkers
and
we
started
with
those
with
virtually
and
the
next
year.
We
started
with
schools
that
had
higher
penetration
waters,
so
the
one
thing
we
recommend
to
direct
direct
astronomers,
potentially
going
out
to
bond
to
pick
up
some
of
these
things
that
have
been
on
more
urban
communities
where
a
lot
of
children
won't
so
we're
trying
to
figure
out
ways
to
work
with
our
partners
in
the
school
department
to
do
this.
C
C
The
quantity
of
the
snow
is
magnifying,
the
issues
that
already
existed
and
how
we
plot
I
used
to
live
in
ward,
2
and
dawn's
ward,
and
they
always
used
to
just
plop
one
line
right
down
the
street
and
when
it
was
a
foreign
snowstorm,
it
didn't
really
matter
you
could
just
shuffle
through
the
screen
as
well.
I
think
the
issue
that
we're
running
into
now
is
the
sheer
magnets
in
the
snow,
and
they
do
that.
One
pass
on
a
lot
of
these
side
roads
and
they
just
don't
go
back
and
do
it
again.
C
Is
the
word
councilman?
Sometimes
they
forget
the
plot
called
sex.
I
know
my
cult
sack
wasn't
applied
after
saturday
because
it
was
going
to
be
40
degrees.
On
sunday
it
saved
the
city
money
and,
as.
C
But
it
does
leave
that
layer
of
ice
in
this
in
the
way
that
the
woman
called
the
acid
holes.
So
again,
it
goes
back
to
not
necessarily
that
we're
not
doing
a
good
job
cleaning
is
that.
Maybe
our
strategy
needs
to
change
a
little
bit
and
know
that
if
there
are
cul-de-sacs
that
we're
not
going
to
plow
we're
only
going
to
plot
once
we
go
back
and
put
salt
on
them.
C
If
there
are
streets
that
were
only
going
to
go
down
one
pack
to
countess
point,
do
we
go
back
and
watching
the
roads
a
little
bit?
So
I
think
it
goes
to
reassessing
and
working
with
the
administration
on
what
the
plan
strategy
is
with
our
vendors
and
trying
to
fix
it
to
make
sure
it's
more
effective
because
they
had
to
think
in
parts
of
war
ii,
especially
the
air.
I
could
only
imagine
fire
truck
having.
C
I'm
not
part
of
the
I
I
do
not
know
where
the
report
was
perhaps.
C
Area,
alaska,
please
and
queen
ward.
Two
victory
street
was
very,
very
bad,
persian
street
those
areas
off
the
reservoir,
which
is
side
streets.
So
I
think
the
city
did
a
great
job
on
the
main
lotteries
which
they're
responsible
for.
I
think
we
need
to
look
at
the
contractors
with
which
contractors
were
assigned
the
poor
areas
and
those
contracts
just
don't
carry
on.
C
I
mean
I
don't
think,
put
in
five
of
the
pavement
and
I
don't
think
they're
making
a
second
and
third
pass
because
they
left
a
lot
of
ice
in
wards
two
and
three
on
the
side
streets
and
it
was
very
dangerous
from
memphis
to
the
public.
So
I
think
the
administration
should
address
that
those
vendors
that
are
paying
and
they're
not
doing
this
efficient
job
farmer.
