President
lanning
members
of
the
council,
john
de
bona
attorney
representing
west
bay
llc
with
regard
to
an
ordinances
before
you
this
evening,
ordinance
1-16-0-1,
it's
a
zone,
change
ordinance
for
property
located
on
scituate
avenue
in
cranston,
appeared
before
the
ordinance
committee.
At
its
meeting,
I
made
a
presentation
I'll
be
brief.
The
application
before
you
is
an
application
for
the
ordinance
before
you
is
an
ordinance
seeking
to
change
the
zoning
designation
of
the
possible
question
from
a20
to
b2.
E
If
that
ordinance
is
granted
the
property,
that's
the
subject
matter
of
the
ordinance
would
be
added
to
on
a
budding
possible
by
my
client,
which
is
about
seven
acres
and
is
now
the
subject
of
a
master
plan
before
the
planning
commission
for
an
apartment
complex
in
april
of
2014,
the
planning
commission
granted
master
plan
approval
for
62
units
of
apartments
there,
the
addition
of
this
property.
If
this
application
and
the
zoning
zone
changes
granted,
would
add
an
additional
10
units
without
a
clubhouse,
a
pool
landscaping
again
to
be
subject
to
this
ordinance.
E
Ordinance
committee
meeting
the
2010
comprehensive
plan
which
this
council
adopted,
calls
for
the
property
in
question
to
be
designated
as
residents
less
than
10.89
units
per
acre.
That
designation
permits
a
b-2
zone,
probably
being
zone
b2
b2.
Zoning
designation
permits
for
multi-family,
which
this
apartment
complex
would
be.
So
this
is
in
conformance
with
the
comprehensive
of
the
atlanteans
part
of
the
comprehensive
plan
that
this
commission
this
council
adopted.
E
I'm
not
sure
if
you
have
maps
that
you
have
there,
but
the
radius
map
that
was
presented
to
the
ordinance
committee
basically
shows
that
this
property
is
surrounded
by
property.
That's
either
zone
v2,
including
the
property
owned
by
my
client,
which
is
to
the
east
and
south
of
this
property,
but
there
are
just
about
every
every
other
lot
is
either
zone
v2
or
zoned
a20
and
is
used
as
multi-family
as
a
result
of
a
zoning
variance.
E
I
wanted
to
be
brief.
If
you
have
any
questions
now
or
at
the
time
that
the
council
addressed
this
ordinance,
I'd
be
happy
to
answer
them.
Kenneth
coates
is
here
nada.
We
have
renderings.
Are
there
any
other
questions?
I
know
we
went
through
this
before
the
ordinance
committee,
but
at
the
time
that
you
consider
the
ordinance
we'd
be
happy
to
answer
any
and
the
questions
and
we're
asking
that
the
council
adopt
this
audience.
C
Yes,
this,
as
you
know,
the
the
contract
that
we
have
with
colonel
windquist
allows
for
him
to
have
a
401k
plan
and
with
the
new
settlement
from
the
litigation
as
a
result
of
the
the
recent
efforts
with
the
governor
and
the
courts,
we
need
to
ask
the
state
to
allow
us
to
to
do
this
basically
allow
us
to
comply
with
the
contract
that
we
made
with
colonel
lindquist.
To
have
him,
you
know
he's
not
he's
not
opting
in.
He
wants
he's
opting
out.
C
G
G
I
D
D
C
Yes,
this.
Thank
you,
council
president.
This
resolution
relates
to
the
iaff
the.
As
you
know,
we've
made
a
move
to
allow
on
a
voluntary
basis,
newly
hired
civilian
employees,
the
fire
department
to
opt
into
a
401k
type
program
for
pension
benefits,
and
therefore
we
need,
as
a
result
of
the
same
litigation
and
settlements.
We
need
to
ask
the
general
assembly
to
give
us
some
enabling
legislation
to
allow
these
employees
to
opt
out
of
the
state
retirement
system
and
into
this
defined
contribution
plan
that
we
have
now
with
the
city.
A
C
C
So
I
mean
it's
just
basically
to
say:
yes
can
we
we
need
the
legislation
to
tell
us,
we
can
do
it
because
otherwise
we'd
be
stuck
with
the
this,
whatever
the
state
did
on
their
settlement.
So
I
don't.
I
mean
it's
kind
of
a
general.
You
know
request
from
the
for
the
general
assembly.
I
mean
we
can
tighten
the
language
up.
I
guess
when
we
send
it
to
the
general
assembly,
but
it's
basically
to
enable
us
to
provide
that
plan
to
provide
something
other
than
a
defined
contribution
plan
to
newly
hired
employees.
C
L
L
H
Yes,
thank
you,
mr
council,
president
humbly
through
the
chair
to
councilman
steichos.
If
you
might
feel
more
comfortable,
I
mean
I
think
we
could
vote
on
the
resolution
to
get
the
process
started
at
the
state
and
also
here
in
finance,
to
see
if
you
have
any
other
questions
that
you
might
want
to
get
answered.
But
the
deadline
is
was
last
week
and
if
we
get
this
through
it's
by
exceptional
only
at
the
general
assembly,
so
yeah.
H
K
G
C
G
A
M
You,
mr
president,
through
the
chair,
the
sponsor,
I
believe
the
way
this
works,
though,
is
it
it's
only
allowing
them
choice
to
go
to
a
401a
as
opposed
to
a
defined
pension
plan.
Right,
so
that's
correct.
It's
not
forcing
an
employee
to
do
that.
It's
only
allowing
them
the
choice.
So
I'm
not
sure
what
the
what
the
problem
is.
I
mean
it's
already
in
the
contract,
we're
not
forcing
anything
on
there.
It's
just
enabling
legislation
to
give
an
employee
an
option
of
doing
that.
M
So
again,
I
don't
know
what
further
study
we
need
on
that
other
than
we've
always
said
that
it's
best
to
get
them
out
of
the
pension
plan
and
into
something
that's
fine.
You
know
that's
managed
by
them
and
it
saves
city
money.
So
again,
I'm
having
trouble
understanding
why
this
would
be
a
bad
option.
My.
C
L
The
deadline
really
is,
we
don't
want
to
wait
another
month
to
then
go
to
our
sponsor
and
ask
it
to
be
introduced,
because
our
one
of
our
solicitors,
mr
neils,
informed
me
they
extended
the
deadline
for
a
week.
However,
we
don't
want
to
go
back
a
month
later
and
say
we
missed
the
deadline
by
a
month.
Please
try
to
get
this
in,
so
the
urgency
is
that
the
session
is
moving
on.
The
session
is
proceeding
forward
and
we
want
to
get
in
front
of
this
and
not
be
trying
to
play
catch
up.
K
N
H
O
Of
parliamentary
procedure
here
may
be
violating
if
we
vote
on
something
and
the
council
passes
it,
it's
a
new
question.
It
can't
go
to
the
finance
committee,
it
just
doesn't
sound
right
to
me
and
I'll
send
that
to
pat
quinlan.
What
we
could
do
is
we
could
have
a
work
session,
a
sub-committee
work
session
to
discuss
it.
I
think
I
would.
I
would
recommend
that,
but
I'd
like
to
ask
the
parliamentarian
what
he
thinks.
J
As
I
understand
it,
this
is
only
going
to
be
going
to
committee
sort
of
to
discuss
and
understand
it,
as
opposed
to
for
action
to
either
pass
or
not
pass
either
pass
or
not
pass
it.
So
because
it's
not
going
to
be
voted
on
it's
not
for
consideration,
it's
being
referred
to
them
for
informational
purposes.
I
think
that
is
permissible.
J
O
O
A
P
P
So
as
far
as
this-
and
this
was
brought
up
when
we
were
vetting
this
as
far
as
this
give
back
from
the
union,
if
councilman
snykos
would
like
to
make
a
motion
to
take
it
out
of
our
collective
bargaining
agreement,
we're
all
in
favor
of
it,
because
this,
what
he's
complaining
about
is
absolutely
a
benefit
for
the
city
and
no
benefit
for
the
firefighters.
This
is
a
complete
give
back.
So
I
have
no
idea
why
we're
even
arguing
about
this
so.
Q
P
G
Okay,
so
now
that
we
got
that
out
of
the
way,
I
already
taught
the
administration,
if
it's
this
important,
that
they
should
line
up
a
sponsor
and
they
said
they
are
going
to
be
doing
that
as
soon
as
possible.
That
was
my
only
concern
on
it
was
such
a
rush
that
we
had
to
make
sure
that
we
had
it
lined
up.
So
I'm
good.
C
I
mean
I'm
fine
either
way.
I
think
we
should
pass
the
resolution
if
you
want
to
have
a
workshop
and
discuss
something.
I'm
not
sure
I
don't
think
we're
going
to
know
what
the
impact
is
until
people
actually
sign
up
so
yeah,
you
know,
but
so
it's
fine
either
way.
I
just
think
we
should
get
it
to
the
general
assembly.
K
Yeah,
as
I've
said,
I'm
I'm
fine
with
putting
it
what
you
just
said
mike
and
I'm
not
complaining
about
it.
What
I'm
trying
to
do
is
understand
it,
and
my
concern
is
that
if
people
max
out
on
their
pension
and
their
can
they
continue
to
work
and
we
allow
them
then
to
jump
into
a
401k
plan
that
we're
undercutting
our
own
pension
and
that
question
I
don't
think
or
that
theory
may
be
completely
wrong,
but
that's
what
I'm
concerned
about
and
I'd
like
that.
I
just
like
to
explore
that
to
understand
it.
K
A
L
Councilman
we
do,
I
don't
know
who
it
is
off
the
top
of
my
head.
I
wasn't
involved
with
that
part
of
the.
We
have
an
outside
counsel
that
does
draft
this
and
they
have
someone
lined
up
to
do
it.
I
just
don't
know
who
it
is
off
the
top
of
my
head
I'll
be
happy
to
find
out
and
let
you
know,
but
yes,
it
is
ready
to
go.
B
H
A
H
K
A
D
O
A
R
Thank
you,
mr
council.
President.
This
is
in
ward
five
and
I
did
review
all
of
the
plans
and
paperwork
on
it.
It
does
look
like
a
wonderful
project.
I
just
had
a
question
for
the
developers
on
when
the
project
is
going
to
start.
If
approval
is
given
or
when
the
ground
will
be
broken
and
get
moving
on.
A
S
Council
president,
we
have
already
previously
obtained
our
idem
approval
for
the
project,
excluding
this
house
lot,
and
we
would
anticipate
their
approval
very
in
short
order.
We
have
the
preliminary
site
plan,
approval
process
and
final
site
planner
process
to
go
through
with
the
planning
board
and
the
potential
for
one
zoning
variance,
and
then
it
should
be
approved.
B
K
N
Councilman
farina,
thank
you
council
president,
so
we
received
the
report
on
thursday
and,
as
someone
mentioned
on
thursday,
I
am
not
a
genius
which
I
am
not.
I
went
back.
I've
talked
with
lots
of
finance
professionals
in
my
field,
people
that
I
know
who
are
experts
in
the
idea
of
auditing
I've
done
some
research
on
my
own.
I've
come
up
with
a
lot
of
different
information,
and
I
want
to
share
that
with
the
council.
N
So
basically
the
first
thing
I'm
going
to
preface
this
with
is
I
called
a
friend
who
works
in
education
and
I
said:
do
you
have
any
books
or
formats
or
files?
You
can
give
me
on
what,
like
that
talks
about
fiscal
impact
analysis
and
what
it
says
is
a
fiscal
impact.
Analysis
is
a
tool
that
compares
local
government
costs
against
local
government
revenues
associated
with
policies
and
projects.
The
analysis
should
indicate
if
and
when
a
community
could
face
budget
deficits,
local
governments
than
able
to
weigh
land
use
policy
decisions,
etc.
N
So
I
took
that
knowledge,
and
I
went
back
and
looked
at
this
report
in
detail.
I'm
not
refuting
anything
that
happened
in
the
state
police
report.
I'm
not
talking
about
saying
that
you
know
you
could
assume
that
people
retired
or
moved
on
from
their
position
because
of
the
state
police
report.
I'm
not
disputing
that
fact.
That
fact
is
a
true
fact.
No
one
can
dispute
it.
Those
gentlemen
are
retired,
I'm
here
to
say
why
they're
retired,
but
we
can
assume
that
their
retirements
happen,
for
whatever
reason
they
happened.
N
So
I
queried
that
I
said
well
what
about
pensions
they
retired
earlier
they're
going
to
get
more
money
and
most
everyone?
I
talked
to
said
that
well,
pensions
are
contributing
factor.
People
pay
into
their
pensions,
so
if
they
pay
into
their
pension,
you
have
to
include
any
payments
that
go
into
their
pension
to
do
a
true
fiscal
impact.
Analysis
you'd
also
have
to
put
any
payments
that
the
city
of
grants
would
be
liable
for
in
future
years
because
they
did
earn
that
pension
at
that
time
frame.
N
N
N
Five
years
have
we
had
to
raise
taxes,
so
I
then
go
back
and
say
well
in
this
report,
not
knowing
where
the
detail
came
from,
I
didn't
get
the
the
I
didn't
go.
Look
at
every
individual
paper
that
mr
moretti
had.
I
literally
went
line
by
line
and
eliminated
the
things
that
were
contractually
obligated
or
that
had
costs
associated
with
them.
That
would
have
happened
regardless
of
the
police
report.
It's
not
a
question
of
when
they
would
have
happened.
N
N
N
There's
a
question
on
some
of
the
retirement
medical
benefits
on
whether
those
would
have
been
negotiated
with
captain
antonucci
had
he
not
gone
through
the
process.
So
I
can't
speak
to
that.
So
my
range
based
on
the
report
that
mr
murray
put
together
is
anywhere
from
850
000
to
right
about
a
million
bucks.
N
People
who
work
their
20
years
in
a
pension
eligible
position
earn
their
pensions
they
pay
into
their
pensions
and
to
say
that
that
is
an
incremental
cost
because
they
happen
to
retire
early
is
is
a
fact
that
is
indisputably
wrong.
You
cannot
say
that
anybody
would
have
would
have
not
earned
their
pension.
N
If
that's
the
case,
there
would
have
been
a
criminal
proceeding
and
a
felony,
and
only
certain
felonies
in
the
city
of
charter
would
allow
us
to
take
away
someone's
pension
so
to
sit
there
and
say
that
pensions
that
they
would
have
received
their
incremental
is
a
is
a
flawed
fact.
Now,
I'm
not
disputing
that
that
some
of
these
expenses
are
real.
They
are
but
to
say
that
the
city
is
on
the
hook
for
five
to
eight
million
dollars
is
a
bold
phase
lie
there.
U
N
N
N
I
really
my
heart
is
with
you,
but
as
a
councilman
as
a
financial
executive,
I
have
to
say
that
these
numbers
are
completely
flawed
and
the
person
who
said
I
wasn't
a
genius
was
right,
because
I
thought
on
thursday
that
it
was
anywhere
from
two
to
three
million.
I
never
realized
it
was
850
000
or
1.1
million.
So
I
thank
that
person
for
allowing
me
to
go
back
and
question
my
work
and
look
at
different
things
and
analyze.
My
results
really
put
forth
an
analysis
that
that
could
be
true.
So
thank
you.
T
A
K
I
think
we
have
disagreements
here
on
the
council,
but
when
you
start
accusing
people
of
the
lying,
that's
a
that's
a
pretty
big
step,
and
do
you
have
any?
Mr
moretti
has
handed
out
his
report
with
all
the
detail.
Do
you
have
any
detailed
report
to
hand
to
us
because
the
if,
even
if
you
take
out
the
pension,
it
certainly
doesn't
knock
the
number
down
to
eight
hundred
thousand
as.
N
F
N
Going
to
dispute
facts
with
you,
sir,
I
think
that
I
I'm
going
by
fiscal
calculations
based
on
a
contract,
not
something
that
is,
is
my
feeling
or
gut
or
want.
I
am
telling
you
the
facts,
based
as
I
understand
them,
from
consulting
with
finance
professionals
and
executives
in
finance,
something
that
mr
moretti
did
not
do.
K
First
of
all,
mr
moretti,
I
think
said
that
he
did
talk
to
other
people
and
we
don't
have
it's
it's
very
easy
for
you
to
throw
out
a
number,
but
we
don't
have
anything
to
look
at
from
you
other
than
I
took
this
out.
I
took
that
out,
so
I
think
mr
morody's
report
is
very
clear
exactly
what
it
states
what
assumptions
he
made
and
I
think
the
numbers
hold
up
quite
well.
K
K
Up
people
don't
go
up
on
on
administrative
leave
for
two
years,
like
mr
patalano
did
not
because
he
wanted
to,
but
because
mr
palumbo
put
him
out
there
and
we
didn't
get
any
work
out
of
mr
patalano
for
two
years.
So
that's
a
problem,
that's
why
you
pay
people
in
the
city
issue,
not
because
you
want
to
give
them
money,
but
because
you
give
them
a
wage
in
return
for
services.
M
N
Most
certainly
can
a
fiscal
impact
analysis
is
a
tool
that
compares
the
local
government
costs
against
local
government
revenues
associated
with
development.
Please
I'm
sorry.
I
can
actually
hand
it
to
you
when
we're
done.
A
fiscal
impact.
Analysis
is
a
tool
that
compares
the
local
government
costs
against
local
government
revenues
associated
with
development
policies
and
projects.
N
The
analysis
should
indicate
if
and
when
a
community
could
face
budget
deficits.
Local
governments
are
then
able
to
weigh
and
land
use
policy
decisions
and
acceptable
levels
of
public
services,
and
it
continues,
but
I
did
use
a
report.
I
do
have
a
report.
We
all
have
a
report.
I
didn't
develop
these
numbers,
so
I
don't
know
where
the
detail
came
from,
so
I
don't
have
access
to
it
and
soft
copy
to
build
an
analysis
but
councilman
psychos.
If
you
need
a
report,
you
can
circle.
I
use
mr
moretti's
figures.
N
M
M
That,
if
they
came
in
with
a
fiscal
note
to
this
council
that
had
two
columns,
conservative
and
reasonable
they
get
laughed
out
of
the
room
and
they'd
say
come
back
with
a
solid
number
as
to
what
the
cost
is
to
the
city,
that's
so
when
they
come
in
with
a
detailed
fiscal
impact,
knowing
what
the
numbers
are.
That
is
something
you
could
trust.
That
is
something
that
you
can
look
at
and
say.
This
is
what
the
costs
are,
and
I
agree
with
carlton
korea.
F
M
G
V
Things
the
diligence
that
was
paid
to
producing
a
document
with
an
incredible
amount
of
research
thought
and
second
reason
is
because
I
did
not
have
the
administration's
disposal
as
readily
as
it
much
could
have
been
done.
It
probably
could
have
been
wrapped
up
in
two
months.
However,
there
was
many
many
delays
because
of
I
me
not
being
able
to
access
the
information
necessary
to
produce
this
report.
N
Wow,
well,
I
had
to
assume
that
my
background
finance
first
point
of
personal
privilege.
He
asked
me
a
question.
I
will
answer
it.
I
would
have
assumed.
My
counsel
to
the
council
would
have
been
enough
being
that
you
know
I've
been
in
corporate
finance
and
financial
planning
and
analysis
for
very
many
years.
You
mentioned
people,
they.
G
G
G
N
G
Them
as
a
tool
for
the
nonsense
that
came
out
of
your
mouth,
sir,
what
are
they
saying?
Let's,
let's
hear
them
we'll
make
a
meet,
we'll
make
a
meeting
for
them.
I
think
it
sounds
funny,
though,
we
asked
for
a
special
meeting
to
hear
from
councilman
farina's
advisors
on
what
is
wrong
with
mr
murray's
report
or.
O
Thank
you.
Thank
you,
council
president,
I'm
not
trying
to
get
this
straight.
It's
my
understanding
that
counseling
for
marie's
position
is
that
the
expenses
in
this
report
are
no
more
than
just
the
ordinary
expenses
that
would
happen
would
happen
to
any
police
department
as
far
as
forced
retirements
and
medical,
just
yes
or
no,
but
yes,
so
that
was
fine.
I.
O
Right,
well,
that's
my
understanding.
I
think
I'm
correct
here,
but
my
next,
my
next
ticket
gate
wasn't
an
ordinary
example.
I
mean
that
was
something
that
was
done
on
the
orders
of
a
of
a
rogue
police
captain.
I
mean
that
and
police
abuse
of
power,
and
I
think
that's
why
we've
got
to
where
we
are
today.
So
the
whole
antonucci
map
of
1.5
million
totally
exceeds
your
number
of
eight
hundred
thousand.
O
I
requested
the
constant
president
to
get
to
the
bottom
of
a
police
department
that
was
fully
run
and
mismanaged,
and
I
want
to
thank
mr
moretti
for
putting
the
facts
on
paper.
I
think
he
did
a
damn
good
job.
He
gave
us
a
conservative
number
and
he
gave
us
a
reasonable
number
and
we
can
find
between
those
two
numbers,
some
something
in
the
middle.
I
think
so.
O
C
C
The
man
was
hired
in
1996,
so
by
the
time
this
ticket
scandal
took
place
was
2013.
He
was
already
a
17-year
veteran
of
the
police
department.
He
was
fully
vested
in
his
pension,
had
he
paid
into
it
for
17
years
and
the
city
had
paid
into
it
for
17
years.
So
there's
nothing.
You
were
going
to
do
to
deny
him
a
pension,
and
I
guess
so.
I
guess-
and
he
is
already
he
was
already
the
president
of
the
union
at
the
time.
C
I
believe,
okay,
so
the
argument,
I
guess
or
the
methodology
of
even
considering
this
case
is
that
if
he
wasn't
promoted
by
the
administration,
he
may
not
have
done
a
foolish
thing
in
ticketed
automobiles.
I
mean
just
the
premise
that
you're
using
to
even
include
this.
I
have
a
lot
of
problems
with
he
was
he
he
was
already
there.
I
mean
the
fact.
I
don't
know
how
you
anticipate
whether
someone's
going
to
do
something
foolish
on
the
job.
C
I
think
that's
part
of
the
problem
with
even
adding
this
in
now
in
terms
of
the
legal
costs,
the
legal
costs
on
this
don't
forget
he
he
made
took
advantage
of
his
legal
rights
under
leo
board.
He
also
filed
two
other
cases,
one
in
superior
one
in
the
supreme
court,
and
this
council
approved
the
settlement
because
they
wanted
him
out
and
there
was
no
other
way
to
get
him
out
without
paying
legal
fees
because
of
the
leoboard
process.
So
you
even
those
are
a
normal
cost
of
business.
C
So
we
all
knew
those
those
dangers,
and
everyone
wanted
that
result,
especially
councilman
arketo
yourself
and
councilman
stykos
wanted
some
severe
discipline.
You
got
it,
but
you
have
to
pay
for
it,
whether
it's
a
good
case
or
a
bad
case.
So
I'm
not
so
sure
that
any
of
the
antonucci
expenses
were
really
something
that
could
have
been
anticipated
by
anyone.
I
don't
know
unless
you
have
a
computer
chip
in
everyone's
head
and
you
can
tell
what
they're
going
to
do
before
they
do
it.
How
would
you
have
known
and
how?
O
O
H
O
H
Yeah,
council
president,
I'm
a
little
bit
confused.
Did
this
council
at
any
time
vote
for
a
settlement
for
the
captain,
or
was
it
a
an
agreement
between
the
mayor
back
room
and
not
negotiated,
and
maybe
we
were
given
some
details,
but
this
council
never
voted
on
a
settlement?
Is
that
not
correct
or
can
somebody
answer
that
form?
I.
A
A
M
M
M
N
Thank
council
president.
I
appreciate
the
recognition
so
most
of
the
arguments.
I've
given
tonight
aren't
arguments
they're,
basically,
facts
that
are
before
us.
I
think
it's
funny.
I
get
my
background
question
by
council
president.
I'm
ordered
to
bring
witnesses
here
by
councilman
santamaria,
but
in
reality
in
reality
they
don't
exist.
Financial
rules
are
financial
rules.
We
might
not
like.
N
N
R
Thank
you,
mr
council
president.
My
issue
with
this
report
is,
it
doesn't
reflect
checks
that
have
been
written
from
director
of
finance
or
bob
or
bob
strom
might
reflect
some
things,
but
not
all
things.
I
mean
there's
a
lot
of
assumptions
that
I
see
that
were
made
in
here.
I
think
councilman
styko
should
use
the
word
assumptions
so
that
you
know
that
bothers
me
that
we
don't
see
exactly
what
it
cost.
So
this
is
such
a
big
range
and
I
think
ordum
already.
R
H
Not
only
did
cranston
taxpayers
get
hurt,
but
now
you're
looking
at
state
taxpayers,
they
could
have
been
doing
something
else,
but
no,
they
were
here
and
we
got
six
hundred
thousand
dollars
worth
of
work
from
here
now.
Maybe
the
agreement
wasn't
that
you
know
they
were
going
to
get
charged,
anything
which
I'm
sure
you
know
if
the
state
police
is
asked
to
go,
look
into
something
they
do
it,
but
it's
still
600
000
of
rhode,
island
taxpayer,
money
that
could
have
spent
doing
something
else.
C
Councilman
for
vecchio.
Thank
you,
council,
president,
to
answer
councilman
to
see
this
question.
Well,
we're
we're
also
paying
for
38
studios
in
cranston
as
well,
which
may
far
exceed
that,
but
there's
no
bill.
There
was
an
agreement,
not
that
it
wouldn't
cost
us
any
money.
So
how
can
you
make
that
a
fiscal
impact
on
branston
when
it
was
a
zero
contract?
Zero
is
a
zero.
You
don't
put
it
in
there
as
an
expense
and
we're
not
take
we're,
not
handling
state
expenses.
C
For
them
those
people
would
have
been
paid
whether
they
were
investigating
something
in
cranston,
westerly
or
wherever
in
the
state
of
rhode
island-
and
you
know
everything
in
in
some
of
the
some
of
these
issues,
such
as
the
antonucci
matter
of
councilman
arketo,
said
his.
What
he
argued
was
actually
what
I
agree
with.
We
already
had
to
pay
that
we
have
those
were
contractual
obligations,
so
you
cannot
count
contractual
obligations
as
an
expense
as
a
result
of.
C
Maybe
you
don't
like
what
the
gentleman
did,
but
the
laws,
the
laws
say
that
we
can't
stop
people
from
earning
a
pension.
Even
if
you
can,
you
can
commit
murder
and
still
collect
the
pension
as
long
as
you
don't
steal
from
the
city
you're
going
to
collect
your
pension,
pretty
much.
That's
that's
the
bottom
line,
so
I
don't
know
what
what
the
biggest
problem
is.
The
premise
that
all
these
items
should
be
included,
none
of
them.
Some
of
them,
are
totally
unliquidated.
There's.
L
H
H
Himself
start
to
count
the
people
who
had
to
fill
in
their
responsibilities,
which
is
an
added
cost
to
the
city
above
and
beyond,
because
they
were
probably
lieutenants
doing
majors
job,
and
that
means
that
you
know
sergeants
had
to
be
promoted
up
to
lieutenant.
That's
not
an
everyday
course.
When
we
do
the
budget,
we
don't
budget
for
that.
C
C
C
C
C
For
I
don't
know
what
reason,
but
there's
there's
an
awful
lot
of
stuff
in
here
to
add
a
contract
with
the
state,
that's
a
zero
contract
and
say
well.
That
was
an
expense
because
we
paid
you
know
our
81
000
residents
paid
a
portion
of
the
cost
of
of
hiring
those
policemen.
I
mean
I
I
don't.
I
don't
see
it.
K
K
You
know
I'll
I'll
have
to
work
on
that
it'll.
Take
me
a
little
time,
but
anyway,
that's
that's
just
crazy,
and
I
would
like
mr
moretti,
mr
councilman
pablowskis
said
that
you
said
at
the
last
meeting
that
the
cost
could
be
between
two
and
12
million.
I'd
like
to
give
you
a
chance
to
respond
to
that.
V
Concern
that
was
a
statement
was
made
by
me
as
a
result
of
the
criticism
or
critiquing
of
my
report
at
that
time,
but
to
try
to
gather
consensus
of
this
body
to
say
that
the
cost,
the
financial
impact
plural
resulting
from
the
actions
indicated
in
the
state
police
report,
were
not
we're
in
the
millions
very
substantial
the
take
away.
The
real
takeaway
is.
This
was
not
a
minor
cost.
V
V
X
V
G
G
L
Gladly,
mr
councilman,
he
was
not
blocked
from
information.
I
know
for
a
fact
that
information
was
provided
months
ago.
I
also
understand-
and
maybe
the
auditor
can
confirm
for
me
that
he
actually
went
into
the
police
department
to
look
at
their
books
and
records.
So
any
accusation
that
there
was
an
effort
to
block
him
is
completely
false.
A
V
What
I
can
recall
may
have
to
check
the
minutes
that
at
a
council
meeting
council
president
laney
asked
me
to
assess
to
to
come
back
and
quantify
the
costs
of
the
actions
indicate
the
state
police
report.
I
believe
at
that
time
I
did.
I
don't
recall
hearing
any
objections
to
that
and
mr
perhaps
council
president
could
better
answer
that
yeah.
C
V
If
I
just
want
to
make
a
comment,
I
think
that
directive
was
back
in
september.
28Th
today
is
roughly
on
her
boat
february
22nd.
I
never
prevented
anyone
from
approaching
me
to
just
discuss
the
topic,
not
trying
to
influence
me,
of
course,
but
to
just
discuss
the
topic.
Not
one
person
came
forward
just
want
to
factually
put
that
out.
There.
O
F
O
Is
if
we
do
have
a
chief
executive
who's
concerned
about
the
average
cranston
taxpayer
and
he's
looking
out
for
their
well-being
in
their
pocketbook,
then
I
would
have
to
say:
councilman
psychos
was
absolutely
right
when
he
had
the
choice
to
fire
chief
palumbo.
He
did
not
fire
chief
palumbo
to
save
taxpayer
money.
He
allowed
him
to
stay
on
administrative
leave
and
then
retire
with
full
pension
and
benefits.
O
He
had
the
option
immediately
to
demote
captive,
probationary
captaining
to
lieutenant
after
the
ticket
gate
fiasco.
He
did
nothing
but
protect
him
for
over
a
year
and
a
half
and
had
a
backroom
deal
without
the
sanction
of
this
council.
An
agreement
back
new
deal
to
protect
his
20-year
pension
will
be
paying
him
until
april.
So
so,
each
time
the
mayor
says
he's
in
the
best
interest
of
the
cranston
taxpayer.
O
M
Councilman
box,
thank
you,
council
president.
I
keep
hearing,
you
know
throwing
around
that.
Colonel
palumbo
should
have
been
fired
and
we
would
have
saved
money
here
and
there,
but
you
can
bet
as
sure
as
the
sun
will
rise
tomorrow.
The
city
would
have
got
sued
and
there
would
have
been
legal
costs
associated
with
that,
and
maybe
that's
something
that
should
have
been
in
this
document.
M
Maybe
it
should
have
been
if
scenario
a
occurred.
This
is
what
the
cost
would
have
been
to
the
city
versus
scenario
b,
because
I
keep
hearing
oh
palumbo.
He
wouldn't
have
to
pay
his
medical
and
this
and
that
well,
I
think
he
would
have
been
entitled
to
leopold
herrings
as
well.
If
I'm
not
mistaken
and
well,
he
would
have
sued
the
city
under
some
sort
of
legal
guise
to
try
and
get
money
that
was
coming
to
him.
M
M
There's
too
much
vagueness
in
here
again,
I
don't
agree
with
the
pension
costs
because
I
think
either
way
we're
on
the
hook
for
the
pension
costs.
I
asked
the
first
question
I
asked
thursday
night
was
from
the
administration
on
how
a
pension
can
be
denied,
and
it
was
I
think
it's
been
mentioned
earlier.
It's
only
by
fraud
or
embezzlement
and
any
other
crime.
You
could
keep
your
pension,
a
firefighter
gets
murdered
in
cranston
and
the
police.
Providence
police
officer
will
keep
his
pension,
so
I
mean
there's
only
certain
parameters.
O
M
V
This
is
a
point
of
technically
understand.
My
undertaking
versus
that
of
of
a
markham
markham
is
conducted
in
audit
of
the
city
financial
statements.
What
it
is
it's
they're
expressing
an
audit
opinion,
which
is
a
standard
opinion
if
you
will,
if,
unless
there's
qualification,
so
it's
an
expression
on
the
city's
financial
statements.
This
is
a
compilation
that
I
prepared.
So
it
is
apples
to
oranges
to
compare
what
markham
and
independent
cpa
firms
do
in
terms
of
auditing
books
versus
the
exercise
that
I
was
directed
to
do.
J
Yes,
mr
president,
in
section
3.25
of
the
city
charter,
it
sets
forth
the
appointment
as
well
as
the
duties
of
the
city
auditor
and
in
subsection,
a
powers
and
duties
of
the
auditor
to
perform
audits
of
all
offices,
departments
and
other
agencies
of
the
city,
an
additional
audits,
as
directed
by
the
president
of
the
city
council
or
by
resolution
of
the
city
council
and
then
beyond
that
it
goes
into
a
definition
of
what
the
scope
of
audits
are
and
part
of.
That
is,
whether
they're,
managing
and
utilizing
resources
in
an
economical
and
efficient
manner.
C
Brief
council,
please
do,
I
will
just
want
to
mention.
We
were
brief
on
all
these
settlements
on
the
settlements,
any
any
legal
settlements
we
were.
This
council
was
fully
aware
of
them
and
if
anyone
had
an
issue
with
them
could
have
raised
it
at
any
point
before
it
was
completed,
they
were
given
the
opportunity,
so
I
just
wanted
to
let
and
that
we
didn't
receive
this
report
until
it
was
given
at
a
public
meeting
to
with
the
press
here
before
we
ever
had
a
chance
to
look
at
it.
V
I
consulted
with
colonel
o'donnell
and
lieutenant
colonel
barry
to
ensure
you
might
recall.
I
said
this
to
make
sure
that
I
was
on
track,
that
the
scope
of
what
I
was
doing
was
on
track
to
what
they
had
in
their
report
that
I
was
not
originating
any
words
or
I
was
merely
quantifying
what
the
issues
that
the
state
police
raised.
V
V
V
V
V
In
one
example,
there
was
a
retired
captain,
I'm
just
just
taking
some
excerpts.
It's
all
in
the
report,
much
more
to
it
than
just
this,
but
basically
at
this
cap,
the
court,
virtually
this
captain
x,
had
not
sought
the
disability
pension
and
filed
the
grievance
saying
that
it
had
been
rushed
through
for
once
for
some
reason,
which
he
said
was
very
suspicious.
V
From
the
state
police
report,
I
continue
in
a
different
section
at
the
conclusion
of
our
review.
We
discussed
the
findings
of
the
investigation
which,
with
this
major
and
advised
him
that
the
investigation
would
be
further
reviewed
for
criminal
wrongdoing
as
well
as
internal
violations
of
the
cranston
rules
and
regulations.
V
On
friday
may
16th,
captain
barry
accepted
this
injured
letter
of
intent
to
retire
from
the
cranston
police
department
three
days
later,
because
that
to
me
seemed
a
bit
extraordinary
that
this
person
would
have
not
just
retired
two
or
three
days
later.
That's
why
it's
here,
if
my
judgment
is
wrong
by
putting
that
in
there,
then
I
accept
your
criticism
or
another
example.
V
V
Furthermore,
the
review
lacked
the
review,
revealed
a
lack
of
accountability
between
mayor
frong
and
colonel
palumbo
on
the
allegations
and
charges
against
captain
padalano.
It
displayed
a
lack
of
fiscal
responsibility
by
placing
a
person
on
paid
leave
for
approximately
22
months,
based
on
the
facts
and
circumstances.
V
V
It
also
displays
the
lack
of
accountability
and
lack
of
supervision
by
mayor
fung
over
colonel
palumbo.
It
is
unconscionable
that
an
independent
investigation
did
not
ensue
after
the
citizen
had
contacted
the
mayor
and
his
directive
administration
to
express
his
fear
about
the
threatening
behavior
of
colonel
palumbo.
V
V
V
N
Yeah,
I
don't
think
I
ever
once
questioned
the
validity
of
the
state
police
report
the
data
contained
therein.
The
only
thing
I've
done
tonight
is
talk
about
what
a
financial
impact
analysis
is
the
fact
that
an
impact
analysis
would
facilitate
a
rise
in
taxes
or
review
of
tax
base.
Based
on
that
work,
mr
murray
did
say
that
this
was
subjective
again.
This
is
a
lot
of
work.
I
do
understand,
having
done
analysis
like
this
in
the
past,
how
much
work
was
something
like
this.
N
I
had
no
time
tried
to
subjugate
the
work
the
state
police
did.
I've
talked
about
being
right
or
wrong.
I've
read
the
police
report.
I
I'm
disgusted
by
some
of
the
things
in
it
and
I
do
agree
with
councilman
boss
that
there
is
a
cost
associated
with
these
things,
but
I'm
bringing
up
factual
and
that
differences
that
myself
and
mr
already
have
I'm
not
looking
at
it.
From
a
perspective
of
how
I
feel
I'm
looking
at
what
I
think
from
a
financial
perspective
would
be
include
inclusive
in
a
budget
and
a
financial
impact
study.
C
C
You
talked
about
the
disability
pension
of
officer
x
and
you
made
a
determination
which,
if
you
had
spoken
to
us
or
spoken
to
legal
counsel,
who
had
handled
the
matter
or
even
that
person's
legal
counsel,
you
might
have
understood
it
a
lot
better
and
you
included
it
without
knowing
the
facts.
You
just
accept
opinion
that
you
read
and
accepted
all
this
fact
proven
fact.
C
Then,
maybe,
even
if
they
want
to
keep
working
if
they
want
to
keep
working,
there
may
be
a
good
reason
to
not
allow
them
to
keep
working.
So
you
made
a
lot
of
assumptions
based
on
opinions
and
as
much
as
you
know,
I
think
the
state
police
they're
not
they're,
not
auditors,
they're,
not
cpas,
and
they
they
share
an
opinion
as
policemen
that's
great,
but
that
doesn't
mean
that
we
have
to
accept
everything
as
gospel
or
that
you
had
to
accept
everything
as
gospel
and
that's
what
you
did.
V
A
A
A
If
the
mayor
and
some
of
his
political
cronies
are
not
happy
with
mr
murray's
assessment
I'll
gladly,
with
this
council's
approval,
call
for
a
competent
management,
consulting
firm
to
do
another
external
assessment
of
mr
moretti's
report,
we
will
let
the
chips
fall
where
they
may.
Meanwhile,
I
stand
by
wisdom
already
statements.

There
is
at
the
finance
committee,
there's
a
an
ordinance
that
I
proposed
for
a
minimum
wage
for
city
workers,
and
I've
been
talking
with
director
strom
about
impact
of
that
and
there
I've
given
to
the
clerk
a
a
breakdown
of
the
165
part-time
city,
employees
of
their

and
what
their
rates
of
pay
are,
where
they,
where
they
fall,

you
may
she's
going
to
post
that.
You
may
want
to
look
at
that

Before

to

hearings,
if
I
could
have
the
indulgence
of
the
city

just
for
a
couple
of
announcements,
there's
two

just

Q
Richard
tomlins
fall
under
farmington
interesting
evening.
Listen
to
all
this,
just
a
few
general
things
that
I've
learned
in
a
60-year
career
figures
may
not
lie,
but
liars
can
figure
that
there's
a
lot
of
theory
in
accounting,
I'm
the
only
one
in
this
room
that
has
set
in
high
profile
meetings
with
big
aid
firms
with
three
corporations
with
top
management-
and
I
can
assure
you,
whatever
figures
that
were
put
out
by
the
auditors-
were
challenged
over
and
over
again.
Q
I
know
a
little
bit
about
his
work
and
I've
stood
up
here
previously
and
asked
for
him
to
do
fiscal
impact,
state
statements
or
reports
just
recently
on
the
fire
contract
as
an
example
and
whatever
he
would
come
up
with.
I
know
would
be
professionally
done
and
regardless
of
what
he
come
up
with,
I
would
probably
be
able
to
accept
it,
because
I
know
it
was
a
professional
evaluation.
Q
Whatever
your
purpose
is
to
me
is
the
most
demeaning
thing
a
man
or
a
woman
can
do
as
far
as
the
police
report
is
concerned,
regardless
of
how
you
want
to
argue
over
the
cost
of
the
police
depaul
report,
we
had
two
of
their
individuals,
a
captain
and
a
lieutenant.
I
understand
now
a
major
and
a
captain
that
sat
there
and
operated
that
police
department,
as
well
as
working
on
this
report
and
to
say
it
was
done
by
one
of
the
other
councilmen
by
they
don't
have
the
professional
ability.
Q
I
can
assure
you
that
within
the
state,
the
police
department,
they
have
people
who
know
accounting
trained,
they
have
law
trained
and
they
would
have
looked
at
that
report
with
that
colonel
o'donnell
put
his
name
on
so
again.
A
shame
on
you
for
stating
that
the
police,
the
state
police,
did
not
have
the
professionalism
to
give
out
that
report.
Q
Q
So
it's
all
management,
that's
what
it
comes
down
to
I'll.
Give
you
one
case,
never
mind
the
ones
that
I
was
involved
in
the
sheraton.
Boston
alone
in
1965
was
worth
more
than
what
you
just
gave
out
for
your
number
one
project
that
I
had
experience
on
every
level.
All
right.
We
had
one
example
here
that
I
inherited
when
I
worked
for
this
city,
a
major
personnel
case.
Q
Q
Q
It
was
a
lot
of
hard
work,
but
it
was
what
my
training
was
and
my
training
came
from
management,
not
the
theory
in
accounting,
not
necessarily
the
legal
argument,
but
from
the
management
point
of
view.
Taking
all
those
things
into
consideration,
and
regardless
you
do
the
right
thing,
you
don't
let
somebody
stay
on
the
payroll,
mr
councilman,
just
because
you
may
think
he's
going
to
bring
a
case
against
you.
That's
about
the
weakest
excuse.
Anybody
could
possibly
give
let
them
continue
to
work.
Q
Q
P
With
the
firefighters,
thank
you,
mr
mr
president,
I
just
wanted
to
clear
something
up
on
the
divine
contribution
defined
benefit
thing
that
we
were
talking
about
tonight
in
case
I'm
not
available
for
the
the
finance
committee
workshop.
Where
you
discuss
it,
I
guess
the
main
the
main
problem
that
the
councilman
has
is
that
he's
talked
about
it
a
couple
of
times
that
someone
can
get
a
defined
contribution
pension
they
can
get
a
pension
then
go
into
this
defined
contribution.
P
It's
one
of
the
other
when,
on
july
1st,
when
this,
when
our
contract
goes
into
effect,
our
15
civilians
presently
are
asked.
If
they
want
to
change.
If
they
don't,
if
they
say
no,
that's
it
they're,
never,
given
another
shot
to
change
anybody
new
that
comes
on
the
job.
They're
asked
once
what
pension
you
want,
the
defining
contribution
you
want
to
find
benefit,
and
that's
it
it's
a
one-shot
deal.
They
can't
do
30
years,
get
immersed
pension
and
then
jump
into
the
city's
401k.
A
W
Yes,
my
name
is
hugo
taraxian,
I'm
a
disabled,
veteran
living
in
cranston,
most
of
my
life,
I
graduated
from
cranston
high
school
east.
I
grew
up
in
branston
as
a
teenager.
I
was
born
in
providence.
I
lived
in
rhode,
island.
My
whole
life.
I've
served
our
country,
I'm
here
today
to
speak
for
the
other
110
100
disabled
veterans
who
reside
in
transit.
W
I
have
a
few
numbers
that
I'd
like
to
run.
Our
disabled
veterans
in
france
can
get
a
exemption
of
100
of
403
dollars
off
their
property
tax
people
who
are
over
65
who
live
in
cranston.
They
get
536
dollars
roughly
a
little
more
than
a
hundred
dollars
more
than
a
disabled
veteran
and
nothing
against
the
seniors
in
cranston.
But
I
think
it's
a
shame
that
our
disabled
veterans,
who
have
served
this
great
country,
get
such
a
small
exemption.
W
F
W
W
We
do
have
other
veterans
who
get
an
exemption.
Their
exemption
for
all
veterans
who
are
living
in
france
is
298.
000
widows
of
veterans
get
168
thousand
dollars
and
it
goes
on
and
on
there's
all
different
exemptions,
pows
and
the
blind.
But
I'm
here
to
speak
just
for
111
disabled
veterans
who
live
in
branston.
W
And
I
would
hope
that
at
some
point
you
would
consider
giving
the
cr
the
veterans
of
cranston
a
little
better
deal.
We've
got
guys
coming
back
from
iraq
and
afghanistan
with
the
post-traumatic
stress
disorder
who
are
unable
to
hold
a
good
job
because
of
their
problems.
We've
got
veterans
coming
back
from
iraq
and
afghanistan,
who
have
traumatic
brain
injury,
who
will
never
ever
be
able
to
probably
own
a
home
if
something
isn't
done
for
them,
because
they're
on
a
fixed
disability.
W
Just
like
myself-
and
it's
not
easy
for
me
to
speak
here
today
for
all
our
veterans,
but
nothing's
been
done
for
them
for
the
last
10
years
in
the
state
house.
Actually,
for
the
last
25
years,
we've
been
up,
the
veterans
in
rhode
island
have
been
trying
to
get
something
done
through
the
state
and
they
tell
me
it's
not
possible
that
the
states
every
year
I
hear
the
same
thing
for
the
last
25
years.
W
K
Y
Thank
you
council
president.
My
name
is
nicholas
lima.
I
reside
at
583
laurel
avenue.
I
would
think
about
making
some
remarks
about
the
order
tonight
by.
I
think
members
of
both
parties
here
this
evening
echoed
them
very
succinctly
and
pretty
much
said
anything.
I
would
like
to
say
on
that
matter,
but
in
observing
discussion
tonight
I
did
notice
some
things
that
did
concern
me.
Y
I
may
be
the
youngest
or
perhaps
the
second
youngest
person
in
the
room,
but
a
little
bit
old
school
in
in
the
sense
that
I'm
the
sort
of
person
that
would
debate
an
opponent
and
be
be
perfectly
active
to
share
a
drink,
otherwise
with
them
afterwards
and
have
a
civil
discussion
and
and
be
friends
with
those
who
are
who
I
disagree
with
on
a
on
a
political
level.
I
know
several
councilmen
in
this
room.
Y
I
have
shared
a
drink
with
in
the
past
and
had
some
very
interesting
conversations
and
engaging
conversations
with.
I
certainly
enjoy
the
opportunity
to
to
do
so
with
other
councilmen
here,
but
I
think
that
sometimes
we
do
lose
sight
as
as
you
all,
as
are
as
elected
officials
and
servants
of
the
public,
that
the
people
are
watching,
and
I
think
it's
very
important
that.
F
Y
It
comes
to
something
small
like
mispronouncing,
a
council
person's
name
or
or
talking
over
someone
or
smirking
or
sneering.
I
think
we
could
all
do
with
a
little
bit
less
of
that,
and
that
goes
for
members
of
both
parties
and
both
sides.
That
said,
I
also
want
to
thank
councilman
cattle
for
pointing
me
out.
Y
He
is
fond
of
pointing
me
out
and
as
he
has
mentioned,
I
am
the
chairman
of
the
correct
republican
city
committee
and
I
know
he's
fond
of
asking
what
my
title
is:
I'm
also
the
president
emeritus
of
the
ryan
college
chess
club,
but
unfortunately
councilman
our
kiddo.
I
may
not
be
one
of
your
constituents
much
longer,
I'm
actually
maybe
moving
to
the
eastern
half
of
the
city.
Y
U
27Th
farm
straight
and,
as
you
all
know,
I
have
two
children
in
the
military
and
by
the
grace
of
god
my
children
could
be
disabled
veterans
one
day,
and
so
I
encourage
you,
I
had
no
idea,
they
didn't
get
a
bigger
tax
break.
I
encourage
you
to
do
everything
you
can
to
help
these
people
and
support
them
and
take
care
of
them,
because
the
sacrifice
the
army
and
their
family
give
to
us.
So
we
could
sit
here
in
this
room
and
debate
in
whatever
quorum
or
forum
or
funny
faces
or
whatever
it
is.
U
A
L
Z
A
Z
A
I
think
there's
a
water
utility
pipeline
on
the
left-hand
side,
it's
a
narrow,
downhill,
winding
road
and
hundreds
of
kids
walk
down
that
road
and
what
I'm
worried
about
and
matter
of
fact,
I
was
contacted
by
school
committee
person
wall
concerning
this
and
I
took
a
ride
down.
There
looked
at
it
and
I
said
it
could
it
could
be
very
dangerous
during
the
winter,
so
I'm
looking
for
a
side
walk-off,
something
that
the
kids
can
walk
on
without
being
in
the
middle
of
the
street.
A
Z
A
K
A
A
O
Just
might
be
one
of
those
matches
to
make
a
comment.
I
don't
have
a
problem
constantly.
I
think
that
the
finance
committee
meeting
will
all
upend
our
viewpoints
will
come
up
with
something
that
that's
feasible
for
the
city
and
the
the
taxpayers.
So
I'm
welcome
to
any
suggestions
and
anyone
who
wants
a
co-sponsor
is
fine
with
me.
Okay,
thank
you.
R
I
thank
you,
council,
president,
on
the
the
veterans
issue
a
couple
months
ago,
right
before
evan
left.
I
had
sat
down
with
him
and
done
some
research
on
this,
so
we
might
need
to
do
a
resolution
as
well.
I
have
some
information
on
I'm
happy
to
be
a
co-sponsor
and
help
out.
Whatever
way
I
can
it's
going
to
be
done.
Thank
you.

Even
though
the
bank
had
foreclosed
and
owned
the
property,
there
was
a
chance
they
could
lose
title
to
the
property
so
and
that
was
resolved
probably
about
a
year
ago.
That
case
started
to
unravel
and
the
federal
court
dismissed
all
of
the
complaints,
but
so
it
they
were
really
their
hands
were
tied
as
well.
Z
Again,
the
attorney
masala
masala
has
called
into
the
bank
still
waiting
for
a
return,
call
community
development
and
the
building
inspector,
and
that
was
able
to
gain
access
to
the
building
to
do
an
evaluation
of
to
see
if
it
would
be
beneficial
to
purchase
the
house
knock
it
down
or
renovate
it,
and
I
haven't
received
that
report
back
yet.
Okay,.
G
A
G
A
Z
Z
One
thing
you
may
be
able
to
touch
on.
Is
you
research,
the
idling
ordinance,
and
I
know,
there's
something
in
the
ordinance
that
says
if,
if
the
temperature
is
below
a
certain
degree,
trucks
can
idle
for
a
longer
period
of
time.
Then,
if
the
temperature
is
over
a
certain
degree,
they
can't
idle
as
long
this.
G
Is
not
idling,
they
just
think
that
that
can't
be
here
now
we
went
through
this
before
and
director
cordy,
along
with
the
administration
and
their
attorneys
crafted
an
ordinance.
So
this
has
already
been
done
and
carlos
is
in
contact
with
the
owner
of
the
places
in
missouri,
and
you
know
by
statewide,
if
you're
out
of
state,
you
have
to
have
a
person
here
to
wash
the
property
for
service
of
process.
G
Trust-
and
they
have
a
certain
name
on
councilman
paplowskis-
is
driven
by
there
too.
Last
time
we
were
there
yeah,
it
looked
like
tobacco
road
and
he
he
joined
me
in
my
frustration,
the
they're
just
not
asking
the
trucks
to
move
they're,
just
letting
them
stay
there.
I
know
it's
not
an
ordinance
that
we
can
enforce,
because
the
police
have
told
us
that
inspections
has
told
us
that,
but
we
can
ask
the
the
property
owner
to
cease
and
desist.
G
I
mean
because
we
could
put
in
an
ordinance
to
make
the
parking
lot
attract
a
trailer
lot,
camping
lot
and
tax
them
as
such.
Would
they
go
for
that
because
we
could
draft
the
door
and
instead
would
make
a
trailer
park
and
they
would
have
to?
I
don't
know
if
walmart
or
the
restaurant
they
would
appreciate,
appreciate
that.
But
I
just
think
that.
Z
G
H
G
R
G
A
A
Maybe
councilman
papalosis
confirm
what
I
said,
because
I
know
he
was
driving
for
a
while.
So
if
somebody
comes
in
from
tennessee
and
drops
off
the
load
within
that
ten
hour
span
now
they
got
eight
hours
off.
They
can't
be
driving
anywhere
they're
gonna
pull
over
somewhere
to
get
rest
and
unfortunately
that's
a
big
parking
lot.
So
I
can
understand
the
problem,
but
I
don't
know
address
it.
To
be
honest
with
you,.
G
O
You
council
presidential
couple
just
to
follow
up
on
councilman
siena,
maria's
item
of
illegal
dumping.
I
just
like
to
make
an
announcement
that,
on
march
17th
during
the
ordinance
committee
meeting,
there'll
be
a
company,
a
presentation
in
front
of
that
committee
from
a
company
out
of
massachusetts
who
will
pick
up
mattresses
for
no
charge
to
the
city,
so
we'll
be
having
a
presentation
on
march
17th
next
item.
I
want
to
thank
mayor
fung.

think

is
the
first
course
official
correspondence.
