Description
The Dearborn Heights City Council Meeting taking place Tuesday, February 23rd 2021 via Zoom.
A
B
A
G
I'd
like
to
approve
the
agenda
for
the
electronically
held
meeting
february,
23rd
2021,
with
the
exception
of
I'd
like
to
delete
nine
j,
we've
had
dozens
of
phone
calls
on
this
and
text
messages.
It's
something.
I
think
we
should
look
look
in
the
future
real
near
future
of
having
a
study
session
or
a
town
hall
meeting
or
something
on
this.
C
A
E
A
G
A
We
could
do
tom
just
in
case.
I'm
gonna
give
you
my
personal
suggestion,
it's
up
to
you,
but
I
think,
because
a
lot
of
residents
have
concerns
in
regards
to
this,
I'm
giving
you
a
suggestion,
it's
up
to
you
to
maybe
keep
it
on
agenda
so
that
this
way
at
least
every
council
member
can
say
maybe
a
word
or
two
in
regards
to
this
and
then
give
it
a
little
exposure.
A
A
B
A
D
E
D
Well,
I
I
me
council,
chair
councilman,
what
will
be
doing?
Can
we
maybe
we
can
go
through
with
9j
and
s
that
we,
you
know,
prove
this
by
moving
9j
over
to
a
study
session.
That
way
it's
approved
right
from
the
start.
It's
still
there,
but
we
know
it's
moving
over
to
a
study
session
yeah.
Well,
we
don't
want
to
approve
it.
No!
No!
No.
I
mean
I've
proved
that
we
move
it
straight
to
a
study
session.
I.
A
All
right,
the
next
item
on
the
agenda.
We
have
public
hearings
in
common
and
this
is
going
to
be
on
agenda
items
only.
This
is
only
items
on
the
agenda
today.
You
have
two
minutes
that
you
need
to
state
your
name,
the
street
that
you
live
on,
and
the
city
that
you
live
in.
You
will
have
a
limit
of
two
minutes.
What
we've
instituted?
A
A
B
A
B
L
N
M
If
anybody
calculated
the
populations
you're
looking
over
340
000
residents,
okay,
so
just
keep
that
in
mind,
and
one
more
thing
I
want
you
to
keep
in
mind-
is
during
one
of
our
council
meetings.
The
former
mayor
of
paleco
stated
when
he
was
talking
about
joining
and
buying
into
the
water
treatment
facility.
M
H
A
Vince,
perfect
council
just
want
to
make
an
announcement
just
for
the
residents
that
are
part
of
this
meeting
that
we
as
council
members
are
not
allowed
to
comment
on
these
particular
public
comments,
so
just
so
that
you're
aware
you'd
be
making
a
comment
to
us.
We'd!
Listen
to
it,
of
course,
take
it
into
account,
but
we're
not
allowed
to
debate
back
and
forth
on
this
for
the
council
rules.
Thank
you.
Do
I
let,
on
the
next
person.
H
O
O
O
You've
already
been
discussing
this,
but
encourage
you
to
move
this
through
a
study
session
town
hall,
but
I
also
want
to
say
please
advertise
it,
make
sure
you're
making
the
information
readily
available
to
all
of
your
residents,
because
not
everyone
goes
to
the
city's
website
and
looks
at
the
agenda
or
the
cover
letter.
This
decision
will
affect
every
single
resident
in
our
community.
Every
one
of
them
deserves
the
right
to
have
input
into
this
conversation,
which
is
so
critical.
It's
probably
one
of
the
biggest
decisions
you'll
be
making
this
year.
O
A
J
J
We
were.
I
went
on
the
city
of
dilbon
heights
website
to
check
out
the
meeting
for
this
evening,
and
I
noticed
that
I'm
stumbled
on
actually
that
the
they
are
going
to
be
paying
the
final
payment
to
the
company.
That
did
the
work
out
there,
and
we
have
a
few
objections
to
the
work
that
was
done
there
and
also
there's
extra
charges
that
we
were
unaware
of
on
there.
J
First
and
foremost,
we
don't
believe
the
work
is
completed
there,
that's
first
and
foremost,
and
the
extra
charges
that
that
are
on
here.
We
don't
know
what
they're,
for
there
was
damage
done
to
the
property
and
we
had
asked
them
to
fix
those
damages
and
they
turned
around
and
charged
us
for
those
damages.
J
J
We've
had
that
happening
all
summer
long.
That's
obviously
happened
because
of
the
work
that
was
done
at
the
at
the
pond.
They
seems
here
that
way.
Trim
has
done
some
testimonial
of
releasing
the
money,
and
so
has
dpw
and
okaying
the
release
we
as
the
taxpayers,
the
ones
who
are
paying
for
half
of
this
job
do
not
agree
that
the
city
pay
for
this.
Yet
if
their
money
is
due
fine,
let
it
be
due,
but
let
it
be
due
when
we
know
for
a
fact
that
the
job
is
done.
J
J
So
what
we're
asking
city
council
is
before
any
payment
is
made,
I
mean
maybe
some
money
could
be
released,
but
not
all
the
money
until
spring
when
we
know
that
the
frost,
the
snow
is
melted
and
we
know
that
there's
no
more
flooding
happening
and
we
we
find
out
what
really
happened
back
there.
What
caused
the
damage,
then?
Maybe
we
could
release
some.
You
know
the
rest
of
the
money,
but
at
this
point
we
do
not
agree
with
releasing
a
total
of
seventy
eight
thousand
dollars
to.
J
A
A
J
A
Q
Q
For
some
reason,
they
were
omitted
from
the
last
meeting
that
happened
to
discuss
this
change
order
number
two
and
this
final
payment.
So
I
think
I
think,
as
part
of
taking
this
back
and
reevaluating
and
basically
doing
some
research
on
these
figures
is
allowing
them
to
participate
in
that
as
well.
The
other
thing
is
that,
as
part
of
this
notice
from
february
11th,
it
says
that
the
the
work
without
this
additional
work-
the
20
thousand
dollars-
was
outside
the
scope
of
the
original
project
and
was
requested
by
the
river
oaks
homeowners
association,
they're
they're.
Q
R
R
It
is
better
for
us
to
be
in
a
partnership
with
dearborn,
where
we
would
have
a
say
so
in
cost
and
projects
and
this
and
that,
but
as
a
customer,
our
hands
would
be
tied
and
that-
and
we
don't
know,
what's
going
to
happen
down
the
road
and
how
much
this
is
going
to
cost
us
right
now,
it's
at
900
000
a
a
year
from
what
I
read.
I
just
think
that
this
is
a
bad
move
that
we're
either
a
partner
with
dearborn
or
we
have
our
own
9-1-1
dispatch
center.
Thank
you.
S
City
mike
blackburn
arnold
street
derwent
heights
michigan,
this
is
in
to
reference
about
11a.
I'm
hoping
city
council
votes
down
11a.
I
don't
think
it's
a
good
idea.
I
think
city
council
is
overreaching
by
trying
to
do
the
mayor's
job.
The
mayor's
job
is
to
appoint
people
there's
a
lot
of
jobs
in
that
job
description
that
other
city
officials
already
do
and
city
lawyers
already
do.
S
If
it
is
voted
in,
I
urge
the
mayor
to
veto
it
and
needs
to
go
to
a
study
session
to
be
talked
talk
talked
about
because
I
got
a
lot
of
questions
and
a
lot
of
legal
questions
for
corporation
council
and
for
other
council
members
on
this.
I
cannot
talk
about
right
now,
so
I
urge
that
this
gets
shut
down.
Thank
you.
T
Sorry,
thank
you
I
needed
to
unmute.
I
would
like
to
talk
about
two
particular
issues.
I
also
had
questions
about
the
old
orchard
pond
at
river
oaks
and
the
presentation
of
those
charges,
because
it
appeared
as
though
a
change
order
was
being
presented
for
approval,
and
yet
the
payment
was
also
being
requested
at
the
same
time,
which
makes
no
sense
from
a
logistical
standpoint
that
the
approval
should
have
come.
First.
Also,
the
statement
that
it
was
it
improved.
T
The
driveway
we
as
taxpayers
throughout
the
entire
city
are
helping
to
fund
this,
and
it
should
be
put
back
into
the
condition
that
it
was.
It
should
not
be
improved
upon
at
the
expense
of
the
other
residents,
so
I
do
agree
with
mr
darwich
and
the
attorney
that
that
should
be
tabled,
and
there
should
be
more
discussion
with
that
contractor.
T
However,
a
letter
from
the
chief
of
police
are
the
fire
department
is
not
sufficient
for
me
as
a
citizen
to
make
that
kind
of
important
decision.
Before
we
have
any
future
conversation
on
this,
I
would
like
to
see
the
financials.
There
are
five
cities
currently
participating,
three
of
which
are
extremely
financially
challenged
right
now.
T
U
U
get
it.
This
is
my
hometown.
We
have
already
thrown
this
idea
off
the
bus
once
we've
had
study
sessions.
Why
don't
you
pull
up
the
history?
Look
up
the
microfilm
read
through
this:
it
doesn't
work
for
us,
it
might
work
for
other
cities.
It
will
not
work
for
dearborn
heights
unless
people
come
to
us
like
that,
other
guy
said
you
know
what.
U
V
Hi,
this
is
actually
becca
graf.
I
live
on.
Oakland
drive
david
heights
michigan.
I
just
wanted
to
bring
up
the
merging
of
dispatch
as
well.
You
know
it
feels
like
it's
the
worst
option
for
us
and
that
I
know
that
dispatch
is
actually
sorely
understaffed
and
my
boyfriend
applied
during
the
pandemic
to
work
and
to
help
with
the
dispatch
staff
and
has
been
waiting
a
whole
year
to
hear
back
from
them.
V
Has
you
know,
sent
emails,
sent
letters
gotten,
you
know
very
little
in
return
and
it
seems
like,
like
vince
had
said
it,
it
doesn't
seem
like
it's
the
best
option
for
us
to
be
the
leaders
in
this,
and
you
know
I
feel,
like
the
numbers
are
somewhat
inflated.
You
know,
what's
what's
a
realistic
number
to
get
our
dispatch
up
to
standards
and
and
also
why
haven't
we
done
that
in
the
past?
V
W
W
The
agenda
and
it
should
not
include
anything's
under
item
six.
It
should
also
in
terms
of
someone
identifying
themselves.
They
only
have
to
give
their
name
their
street,
not
their
address.
Yes,
okay
and
the
city
that
they
live
in
and
basically
people
will
still
have
an
opportunity
to
address
all
the
items,
whether
or
not
on
the
agenda
during
the
regular
public
comments.
Thank
you.
A
I
Good
evening,
sam
dearborn
heights,
michigan
garland
street
maine
county,
I'm
talking
about
item
9h,
which
is
a
request
from
chief
myers
for
police
ammunition.
I'm
not
not
that
much!
I
don't
know
if
you
guys
are
all
familiar
with
the
firearm
prices,
how
sky
high
went
off,
especially
during
the
pandemic
and
the
ammunition
prices
went
sky
high
as
well.
I
seen
the
invoices
for
sixteen
thousand
dollars,
literally
we're
paying
over
a
dollar
per
for
ammo
right
now.
I
H
N
I
just
wanted
to
also
vocalize
my
displeasure
with
the
merging
dispatch,
I'm
friends
with
multiple
officers
at
other
jurisdiction
agencies
that
use
the
centralized
dispatch
and
after
their
switch,
they
had
a
lot
of
complications,
a
lot
of
issues
and
a
lot
of
them
vocalize
their
displeasure
to
me
personally,
and
I
just
wanted
to
vocalize
my
displeasure
with
it.
That's
all.
X
X
So
I
was
just
commenting
on
agenda
item
9j
as
well,
and
I
would
like
to
have
a
study
session
on
this
particular
topic.
I
had
to
go
to
the
city
of
dearborn
study
session
to
get
more
information
on
it
because
I
couldn't
find
anything
on
the
website
that
was,
you
know
as
detailed
as
the
study
session
that
they
provided,
and
there
was
a
lot
of
troubling
things
in
their
study
session.
X
X
One
position
which
to
me
is
critical
for
any
dispatch
center,
which
is
the
manager
right
now,
it's
being
filled
by
two.
I
do
not
want
to
butcher
their
ranks,
but
they
are
police
officers
with
the
dearborn
police
department
and
they
are
together
working
to
fill
the
role
of
the
manager
for
the
dispatch
center.
X
But
they
would
want
the
city
lawyer
to
re-evaluate
this
in
a
few
years
to
increase
the
amount
of
their
partners,
the
other
cities,
the
amount
that
they're
bringing
in
to
the
program
to
make
sure
that
it's
a
cost
statement
for
the
city
of
dearborn.
It
didn't
seem
which
of
course,
that
they
were
concerned
at
all
with
the
cost
savings
for
any
of
the
other
residents.
X
The
third
thing
and
lasting
was
the
amount
of
overtime
that
their
dispatch
workers
are
working
on
religiously
consistently,
although
they
gave
all
the
way
from
july
of
2020
to
january
of
2021,
and
it's
consistently
over
a
thousand
hours
of
overtime
that
these
dispatch
workers
are
working
because
of
how
understaffed
they
are,
and
these
hours
do
not
include
any
police
officers
that
are
also
helping
with
dispatch
work,
and
I
yield
the
rest
of
my
time.
I
just
wanted
to
bring
those
concerns.
Thank.
V
L
Sorry
about
that,
everyone,
geez,
okay,
my
this
is
tonya
sterling
west
brookside,
german
heights.
Okay,
michigan
a
couple
comments
again
about
the
outsourcing
first
comment:
why
do
we
again?
Why
do
we
continue
to
discuss
this?
Three
years
later,
I
heard
there's
a
problem
getting
dispatchers
if
we
are
having
those
issues,
it
wouldn't
dearborn
as
well,
and
it
kind
of
sounds
like
that
from
the
person
before
that
they
are.
The
other
thing
is:
where
does
the
dispatchers?
Do
they
fall
under
the
police
chief
fire
chief?
L
So
if
they
fall
under
one
of
those
two
guys
or
both
if
their
that
job
is
outsourced,
then
do
does
part
of
their
salary
go
with
that
as
well?
I
don't.
I
don't
know
how
that
works
and
who
who's
under
that
and,
as
other
people
have
said,
you
know
if
this
might
be
fine
now,
but
down
the
road.
How
is
it
going
to
impact
us
financially,
I'm
willing
to
pay
extra
in
taxes
to
have
this
stay
with
us?
I
think
it
looks
better
for
our
city
to
say
we
own
the
911
system.
L
We
do
it.
I
think
it
helps
draw
people
into
our
city.
That
way
keeps
value
up
and
it
keeps
our
citizens
safe,
and
the
last
thing
like
lisa
had
mentioned.
We
need
to
broadcast
this.
If
we
are
going
to
discuss
it
further,
let
the
citizens
know
not.
Everyone
does
facebook
and
we
just
need
to
do
a
better
job
of
telling
people
what's
going
on.
Our
website
is
not
a
good
resource.
It
is
very
it's
not
user
friendly.
So
thank
you
for
letting
me
share
my
thoughts
and
have
a
good
night.
A
No
problem,
thank
you
very
much
for
all
the
residents
that
commented.
I
do
want
to
point
out
something
for
some
of
the
residents.
There
is
on
youtube
and
I
watched
it
and
I
had
other
council
members,
some
of
them
watch
it.
If
you
go
to
youtube
on
7
14
20
and
it's
called
dearborn
heights
study
session
7
14
20,
there
is
a
youtube
presentation
of
our
police
chief
mark
myers,
the
presentation
that
he
gave
to
the
residents
and
to
us.
A
F
A
This
will
be
on
6
13..
Can
you
give
us
a
little
briefing?
Is
he
I
assume
he's
on
mark
meyer?
Is
that
correct,
yeah,
clear
yep
there
he
is?
Can
you
give
us
a
little
bit
of
a
clearing
on
that
one?
I
know
it's
hutchinson
that
was
at
the
university
what
the
purpose
of
the
those
particular
classes
are
and
the
amount
that
we
paid
towards
that,
etc,
etc.
Y
Okay,
so
one
of
the
things
that
have
been
worked
into
our
collective
bargaining
agreements
for
both
our
patrol
officers
and
our
supervisors,
that
officers
have
the
ability
to
advance
their
education
and
police-related
fields
up
to
and
including,
through
their
master's
degree.
So
lieutenant
hutchins
is
now
completing
his.
I
believe
it's
his
master's
degree,
but
I'd
have
to
look
at
the
level
of
the
class
on
the
thing
if
it's
a
400
or
500
level
class.
But
it
is
a
collective
bargaining
thing.
Y
It's
an
incentive
to
have
officers
come
here,
but
we
also
get
to
parlay
that
experience
that
training
and
that
education
to
be
used
here
within
dearborn
heights.
So
the
money,
although
is
to
advance
their
education,
ultimately,
when
they're
lieutenant
at
our
police
department
what
their
what
he
or
she
is
learning
at
that
university
is
directly
related
and
applied
here
at
dearborn
heights.
A
Okay
and
and
it's
excellent,
obviously,
I'm
always
into
education,
so
this
is
great.
The
only
concern
I
had
is-
and
this
is
this-
doesn't
necessarily
apply
just
to
the
police
department.
I'm
talking
about
in
general,
we
had
a
situation
before
and
I'm
not
getting
into
too
much
specifics,
but
where
someone
was
in
one
of
our
departments
and
studied,
got
a
lot
of
education
off
of
our
city
money
and
then
went
off
and
did
their
own
thing.
A
So
we
didn't
get
an
opportunity
to
take
advantage
of
whatever
education
that
that
person
got
free
had
charged
through
the
city
a
few
years
back.
This
would
be
about
six
seven
years
back
so
for
some
of
us
that
have
been
on
for
a
while
they'll
will
you
know
they'll,
remember
that
and
I'm
trying
not
to
disclose
who
it
is,
I'm
trying
to
be
careful
with
that
being
the
case.
How
do
we
provide?
A
You
know,
guidelines
for
ourselves
to
make
sure
that
whoever
gets
a
particular
education
on
our
expense
is
going
to
be
staying
there
long
term,
like
maybe
as
a
possibility.
One
of
the
things
I
was
thinking
of
is
in
case
they
didn't
stay
longer
term
x,
amount
of
years.
It
had
to
pay
us
back
for
the
education
that
they
received
at
our
expenses
at
all
possible.
Is
there
guidelines
like
that
in
place.
Y
So
there's
there
is
one
failsafe,
but
it
has
to
do
with
at
the
end
of
their
careers.
Anybody
that's
within
the
last
segment
of
their
career,
according
to
the
collective
party
agreement,
so
many
years
is
not
able
to
take
advantage
of
that
program.
So
it's
for
officers
at
the
beginning
years
of
their
career
and
it's
it's
defined
in
those
collective
bargaining
agreements.
As
for
a
new
officer,
say
they're
going
to
get
their
master's
degree,
they
do
it
in
a
a
decent
amount
of
time,
but
obviously
not
as
a
full-time
student.
Y
I
don't
think
you
could
do
it
as
full-time
you're
talking
two
to
three
years,
potentially
four
years
of
education.
Yes,
they
are
getting
that
benefit,
but
over
the
course
of
that
four
years,
we're
getting
those
officers
here
applying
what
they're
learning
during
those
times.
So
there
is
no
fail
safe
at
this
point,
according
to
the
contractual
bargaining
agreements,
but
collective
bargaining
agreements
rather,
but
what
we
do
get
is
an
officer
who's,
obviously
concerned
with
that
ability
to
improve
themselves.
So
we
hope
that
translates
into
the
work
product
that
they
put
out
here.
A
I
just
like
to
be
a
little
bit
more
fail-safe
situations.
Again,
I'm
a
little
paranoid
because
of
the
situation
we
had
in
a
different
department
that
hopefully
that
doesn't
happen
again,
but
thank
you
very
much,
chief
players
and
I
had
a
second
question
unless
some
other
council
person
had
the
question
okay,
this
is
for
director
selmy,
if
you
don't
mind
just
pulling
in
our
residence
to
transfer
number
35,
36
and
37.
A
Maybe
if
you
could
give
just
a
30
second
abbreviation
as
far
as
why
we
are
paying
those
particular
amounts.
Well,
we
know
I'm
sorry,
I
should
say
it
take
it
back.
35
and
36
specifically,
and
I
don't
mean
you
spoke
already,
but
if
you
could
just
if
you
don't
mind,
I
had
a
resident
ask
me:
if
you
don't
mind
filling
us
in
on
those.
P
P
It
was
split
between
taylor
and
dearborn
heights
and
it
was
based
on
the
amount
of
flow
that
went
through
that
basin,
and
that
was,
I
believe,
off
the
top
of
my
head,
like
60,
some
percent
for
dearborn
heights
and
30,
some
percent
for
the
city
of
taylor,
and
I
believe
that
was
payment.
Six
of
nine
or
something
like
that,
seven
or
nine.
A
A
Z
Thank
you,
council,
chair
pro-time.
I
was
going
to
actually
make
a
comment
on
the
last
item
that
you
discussed
about
education,
so
this
is
something
I
was
discussing
with
our
elizabeth,
our
hr
director.
We,
we
actually
thought
talking
about
not
not
the
police
department
but
tuition
assistance
for
other
departments.
Just
I
mean
just
to
give
you
an
example
when,
when
I
got
my
master's
degree
the
company
I
worked
for
they
they
paid
for
my
master's,
and
there
was
something
in
in
there.

I
move

marianna

A

Just
gonna
piggyback
on
this
as
well
to
you
know
dr
alias
mecca.
I
know
him.
I
know
of
the
family,
he's
a
very
good
good
man
very
respected
in
our
community.
Even
when
I
was
younger,
you
know
he
always
gave
me
some
insight
and
congratulations.
So,
if
he's
out
there
he's
listening
to
this
doc,
congratulations
I'm
happy
to
see
you
on
this
planning.

A
the
poor.
A
C
A
You
councilman,
on
my
end,
what
I'd
like
to
ask
the
two
individuals
is
to
continue
to
work
for
the
residents.
I
know
some
residents
have
made
different
folio
requests.
The
main
thing
I
personally
would
like
for
is
to
give
the
information
as
soon
as
possible,
with
very
little
delays.
That's
something
that's
important
to
me
when
a
resident
asks
for
this
and
goes
through
the
trouble
to
ask
for
this,
and,
as
we
also
know
when
councilman
zuhair
black
as
a
resident
was.
A
M
A
Mr
foyer
so
but
very
important
to
myself
and
I'm
sure
to
all
the
other
council
members
that
we
provide
this
information
in
a
very
timely
manner,
because
they're
taking
the
time
energy
money
et
cetera,
et
cetera,
leaving
work
to
do
this.
They
would
give
their
residents
this
information
as
fast
as
possible
and
just
as
importantly,
like
council
member
hawk
said
for
transparency
reasons.
D
So
I
know
stephanie's
been
working
out
of
that
office
for
a
pretty
long
time,
for
at
least
I
know,
and
she
does
a
great
job.
I
think
this
is
something
that
she's
going
to
take
on
she'll
be
able
to
tackle,
and
I
think
anything
that
stephanie
does
out.
There
is
going
to
do
a
great
job.
So
congratulations
to
stephanie
as
well.
A
M
D
So
I
you
know
I
was
able
to
read
through
this.
I
think
I
believe
I
when
I
even
went
into
the
mayor's
office,
while
you
guys
were
going
through
an
interview
with
this.
I
think
that
this
is,
I
think,
this
thing's
pretty
cool.
I
know
this
is
gonna
help
advance
our
city.
Maybe
we
can
ask
john
salmi,
just
to
kind
of
you
know,
give
the
residents
a
little
bit
of
information
on
what
this
is,
so
that
the
residents
can
get
a
better
understanding
of
this.
D
Do
that
to
his
capacity.
I
know
that
this
is
fairly
new.
I
don't
know
he
may
not
know
as
much,
but
I
know
that
there's
a
lot
of
cool
gadgets
to
this,
and
I
would
like
some
of
the
residents
to
know
that
you
know
when
you're
spending
this
amount
of
money,
but
at
least
they
know
that
it's
going
towards
a
good
cause.
P
P
Ideally
it's
going
to
be
used
in
the
waterfront
first,
so
anytime
we
go
to
a
home
repair,
broken
water
main.
We
locate
a
service.
We
work
on
a
hydrant,
we
work
on
a
valve.
We
have
the
capabilities
of
now
to
put
all
our
work
that
we
did
on
that
job
at
that
time
and
and
track
it
there.
So
it's
always
there.
It's
a
live
database
going
forward
so
in
in
the
future.
When
other
people
come
along.
You'll
have
this
database
set
up,
so
you
have
a
good
record
management
system.
P
Secondly,
when
a
complaint
does
come
in,
we
are
going
to
transition
to
do
tree
trimming
and
some
other
things
with
it.
So
when
a
resident
calls
we're
no
longer
going
to
write
it
on
a
sticky
note
and
hand
it
off,
we
can't
track
it
that
way,
it's
not
very
good
for
customer
service.
This
will
allow
us
to
improve
our
customer
service
once
that
complaint
is
lodged
within
15
days,
it
hasn't
been
acknowledged,
addressed
it
pops
back
up,
so
it
doesn't
fall
off
the
table.
P
You
know
when
somebody's
desk
had
you
know
a
stack
of
papers
and
you
know
geez.
I
don't
know
what
happened
to
that
resident's
complaint
so
and
secondly,
it
also
the
tablets
have
gps
capabilities.
So
when
we
are
out
in
the
field,
we
can
gps
our
assets,
meaning
like
we
could
do
a
tree.
We
could
do
a
fire
hydrant.
We
can
do
a
gate
valve.
We
can
do
a
stop
box,
storm
sewer,
sanitary
sewer,
so
all
those
different
types
of
assets.
A
P
Right,
so
this
is
actually
something
totally
different
than
that
program
that
they
were
looking
at
okay.
So
this
is.
This
is
more
of
an
asset
management
for
public
works,
but
the
the
overlays
on
there
do
have
maps
and
plotted
property
lines
and
things
of
that
nature.
There
may
be
some
value
for
them.
We
definitely
would
share
with
them,
and
if
there
is
some
value
then
we
could
talk
about.
You
know,
cost
sharing
or
something
along
those
lines,
but
this
is
something
separate
than
what
we
viewed
the
other
day.
B
A
F
I
moved
that
the
dearborn
night
city
council
approved
hesco
to
provide
parkland
park
pump
station
maintenance
in
the
amount
of
3450
per
year
for
the
next
two
years,
as
wake
trim
no
longer
provides
this
service.
After
an
initial
two
year
period,
a
city
council
will
have
the
option
to
extend
the
contract
for
up
to
three
years
for
a
three
percent
increase
in
fees
each
extended
year.
In
addition,
authorized
the
mayor
and
clerk
to
sign
a
new
contract
on
behalf
of
the
city
as
outlined
in
9c
support.
A
F
P
Both
actually
so
there
is
a
monthly
inspection
that
they
do.
Do
it's
part
of
the
retainer
of
that
3
000..
Not
a
few
months
back,
the
council
approved
a
new
alarm
system,
dialing
system.
So
it's
more
proactive
now
that
has
already
been
installed,
and
my
recommendation
to
go
with
the
hesco
group
is
the
four
people
that
used
to
work
with
the
wade
trim
group
wait.
Trim,
like
you
said,
doesn't
provide
that
service
anymore
and
they
went
over
to
hesco
so
and
hesco's
a
local
company
here
in
michigan.
P
H
A
G
Councilman
so
yeah
the
the
contracts
for
two
years,
and
then
it
said
that
that
we
could
renew
their
contract
at
three
percent.
Does
that
leave
us
open
to
renegotiate
their
contract
and
possibly
lower
the
amount
or,
if
we
keep
them
on,
we
have
to
give
them
the
three
percent.
I
mean
I
don't
understand
what
that
meant.
So.
P
A
E
The
contract
increase,
reflected
in
change.
Order.
Number
two
is
for
removal
of
an
additional
tree,
improving
the
driveway
at
the
site,
placement
of
additional
storm
pipe
and
additional
inspection
time.
This
work
was
outside
the
scope
of
the
original
project
and
was
requested
by
the
river
oaks
homeowners
association.
E
P
A
Director,
if
you
don't
mind,
let
me
just
do
the.
Let
me
just
do
the
motion
and
who
was
seconded
by
then
we'll
open
it
for
a
discussion.
I
thought
you're
gonna,
add
something
different.
So
just
give
me
a
quick
second,
so
the
motions
made
by
councilman
constant
seconded
by
councilman
ray
muscat
at
this
particular
point,
I'm
going
to
go
ahead
and
open
it
to
discussion
and
director's
telling
me
please
go
ahead.
P
All
right,
thank
you
again,
sorry
for
the
interruption.
First
thing.
First
and
foremost,
there
is
a
typo
on
my
cover
sheet.
That
360
is
incorrect.
It
should
be
310.
That
was
what
the
sad
was
sent
set
for.
So
just
a
point
of
clarification
on
that.
Secondly,
I
would
offer
maybe
a
friendly
emotion
to
table
this
item
and
that
we
we
meet,
we
being
myself
wait,
trim
the
contractor
and
a
representative
of
the
old
orchapon
neighborhood
association.
So
we
can
go
over
this
in
detail.
We
can
address
their
concerns.
P
We
can
explain
what
happened
here.
This
wasn't
we
weren't
trying
to
do
anything
to
I
don't
know
to
to
be
less
and
honest
or
something
I
don't
know
what
to
say
about
that,
but
the
we
can
go
over
the
details
we
can.
We
can
talk
about
whose
responsibility
is
what
you
know.
So
I
think
those
four
parties
would
be
a
good
solution.
We
can
go
through
that
get
everybody
on
the
same
page
and
a
good
understanding
of
the
charges
and-
and
that
and
the
one
thing
that
I
believe
it
was.
P
A
W
Thank
you,
council,
chair
pro
tem.
Yes,
ms
cadry
had
previously
addressed
this
matter.
She
is
the
attorney
I
would
like
to
also
be
included
in
the
meeting
as
well.
She
had
left
me
a
voicemail
message
and
I
believe
I
should
also
be
included
in
that
meeting
with
mr
selmy
and
any
sort
of
representatives
from
wait
trim.
Thank
you.
C
A
D
A
F
I
moved
dearborn
heights
to
prove
an
increase
in
compensation
to
mr
watlin
in
a
building
department.
The
director's
position
is
currently
budget
at
55
500,
due
to
mr
watlin,
taking
the
responsibility
of
the
director's
position.
In
addition
to
his
inspector
duties,
his
income
compensation
will
be
raised
to
65
000.
F
G
D
Mr
chair
councilman
moby
doom,
so
I
I
just
want
to
you
know
for
the
record.
I
want
to
keep
it
that
I
I
am
in
support
of
this,
but
I
you
know
I
just
want
to
you
know
from
what
I
said
in
the
last
meeting.
I
know
that
our
new
director
is
going
to
be.
Mr
wetland
will
be
working
the
inspector
and
the
director
position
and
so
we're
actually
going
to
be
saving
almost
50
000.
Is
this
correct.
D
AA
AA
Hopefully
you
can
hear
me.
We
did
talk
to
the
union
on
that
matter,
and
so
that's
where
that
is,
and
then,
if
you
don't
mind
the
salaries
that
you
on
the
second
piece
also
is
reflective
of
a
change
in
leadership
in
the
recreation
department,
with
the
exchange
of
positions
and
the
realignment
of
responsibilities
between
the
deputy
and
the
director.
D
Okay,
okay,
so
so,
but
now
now
my
next
question
is,
you
know,
say
you
know
and
thank
you
so
much,
mr
whiteland,
for
being
able
to
do
that,
and
congratulations
on
on
that
new
position
and
on
the
increase
in
the
pay
and
thank
you
for
saving
the
taxpayers
all
this
money
now.
Are
we
going
to
be
able
to
say
that
he's
going
to
be
doing
this
for
the
next
year
and
I'll
look
back
at
potentially
hiring
somebody
else
as
well?
D
So
because
can
the
mayor
answer
that
question-
and
this
is
just
something
that
I
want
to
know
like
that's
nice-
that
we're
going
to
be
doing
this.
This
is
great,
but
I
want
to
make
sure
that
if
we're
doing
this
that
there's
a
time
period,
we're
not
saying
three
months
down
the
line,
we
need
another
inspector
and
in
reality
we
didn't
save
50
000,
because
we
had
to
rehire
a
new
inspector.
D
Z
D
Okay,
okay!
Well
I
thank
you
for
that
and
I
and
I
really
thank
mr
watland
and-
and
I
thank
mr
haddad
also
and
congratulations
to
him
as
well,
and
I
hope
that
you
know
this
gets
passed
on
for
you
guys
if
it's
saving
taxpayers
to
all
this
money.
As
long
as
it's
you
know,
we
don't
come
back
to
this
in
eight
months
and
say:
hey
we
just
hired
a
new
inspector,
and
you
know
we
end
up
losing
the
50
000
that
we
thought
we're
voting
on
in
support
of
that's
all.
Z
Z
C
Z
C
D
AA
Yeah,
I
I
can
speak
to
that,
so
it
wouldn't
be
a
union
issue.
It
would
be
a
civil
service
issue
if
there
was
an
issue,
so
the
mayor
did
do
a
temporary
appointment.
That
was
on
the
last
public
civil
service
agenda,
which
was
just
last
week,
so
we're
in
compliance
with
that
in
in
compliance
with
the
ordinance
as
it
relates
to
civil
service.
We're
just
very
happy
that
you
know
we
have
the
team
in
place
the
team
intact
to
propel
this,
this
recreation
department
and
this
city
forward.
G
Yeah
I
want,
I
was
going
to
say
congratulations
to
kim
constance
on
her
long,
due
overdue
appointment
as
director
of
parks
and
recreation,
and
I
wanted
to
reassure
councilman
they
doing
that
in
the
event
that
our
new
building
department
director
decides
to
leave
or
not
do
both
duties
anymore.
We
have
the
power
to
reduce
the
salary
anyway,
so
we
would.
We
wouldn't
be
worried
about
that
situation
at
all.
D
Thank
you.
I
I
don't
want
anybody.
Think
of
mr
watland
or
or
I
know
this
is
a
friend
of
of
of
mr
khan.
One
son
he's,
I
hope
to
be
a
friend
of
mine
as
well.
Once
I
get
to
meet
him.
Congratulations.
I
think
this
is
awesome.
I
just
want
to
make
sure
that
you
know
when
I
hear
that
we're
saving
fifty
thousand
dollars
that
we
have
a
gentleman
it's
going
to
take
on
two
jobs.
I
love
hearing
that
that's
amazing.
D
So
congratulations
to
that
and
thank
you
for
doing
that,
and
I
also
want
to
congratulate
kim
constant-
and
I
want
to
thank
mr
brian
haddad
as
well
congratulating
him
on
his
increase
on
pay
as
well.
So
I
think
this
is
a
win-win
win
all
across
for
the
employees
and
for
our
residents.
So
I
think
this
is
a
great
motion
today
I
wish
I
would
have
been
musket
and
musket
and
I
would
have
been
the
one.
Z
Thank
thank
you,
council,
chair
pro
tom
and
mr
weiland,
also
for
the
last.
Since
I've
been
since
I've
been
here,
I've
seen
some
of
the
improvements
the
department
has
brought
forward
and
I'm
sure
you've
seen
it.
Also
too
council
chair
pro
tem.
Some
of
the
we've
been
getting
a
lot
of
positive
feedbacks.
You
know
from
from
different
residents.
You
know
of
things
that
being
closed.
You
know,
there's
cfos
are
being
closed.
A
lot
of
projects
are
coming
forward.
Z
They're
they're,
being
answered
by
mr
walnut,
he's
actually
working
long
hours
to
make
sure
that
some
of
these
files
are
closed.
He's
been
he's
been
here
early
in
the
morning
and
late
afternoons
he's
been
on.
The
road
also
he's
been
coming
on
some
weekends
to
take
care
of
some
of
the
issues.
So
it's
not
just
like
he's
doing.
You
know
just
the
two
jobs
he's
actually
doing
he's
going
way
and
beyond
to
make
sure
that
the
building
department
is
run
efficiently.
A
Yes,
thank
you,
mr
mayor,
and
I
also
would
like
to
say
congratulations
to
rick
watland,
I'm
hearing
good
things
coming
from
the
residents
and
also
some
of
the
realtors
as
far
as
the
job
that
he's
doing
so
good
job
and
congrats
to
our
new
recreation,
director
kim
constant.
I
wish
you
nothing
but
the
best-
and
I
also
thank
brian
haddad
for
his
continuous
service
in
that
department.
A
G
A
C
A
D
A
A
H
A
Sir
there
he
is
all
right,
so
I
know
we
spoke
on
this
nah,
I'm
sorry.
We
spoke
to
a
couple
of
other
other
items
and
I
apologize
for
forgetting
to
ask
you
this
particular
question,
because
that
was
on
my
notes
at
time,
but
forgot
to
ask
and
and
excuse
my
ignorance,
but
with
the
amount
of
bullets
that
we
are
purchasing
and
I'm
going
to
add
an
asterisk.
To
this.
I
know
one
of
the
residents
asked.
You
know
if
this
is
the
right
time
to
buy
that
many
books.
A
Y
So,
first
of
all,
it's
a
budgeted
item.
We
send
a
budget
at
the
beginning
every
year,
so
we
allocate
for
this
type
of
of
expense.
It's
both
training.
It
is
operational
duty
duty,
ammo,
does
age
and
go
bad,
so
duty
ammo
has
to
be
replaced.
Training,
although
it's
used
the
least
frequently
firearms.
It
holds
the
greatest
amount
of
liability,
so
we
have
to
be
properly
trained.
We
have
to
train
forward.
I
believe
we
train
quarterly.
So
four
times
a
year,
that's
mandatory.
Y
We
also
have
voluntary
training
because
the
more
proficient
our
officers
are
we're
responsible
for
every
one
of
those
bullets.
So
as
for
timing
and
the
cost,
the
cost
is
not
going
to
get
better
they're
depending
on
who's
in
office.
It's
a
political
item
guns
get
more
expensive,
ammo
gets
more
expensive,
it
ebbs
and
flows.
This
purchase
is
being
made
right
now.
We
will
hope
to
get
this
ammunition
in
before
the
next
budget
cycle.
It's
not
guaranteed.
Y
That
is
how
hard
it
is
to
purchase
ammunition
at
this
time,
so
we're
planning
to
get
it.
We
hope
we
get
it,
but
though
we
have,
there
was
one
year
that
we
couldn't
even
get
ammo
that
we
were
trying
to
purchase.
So
that
is
actually
not
a
lot
of
ammo,
because
we
were
in
a
loan.
Last
year
we
weren't
able
to
train
like
we
normally
would
because
of
cobit
restrictions,
even
for
us,
so
we're
not
actually
asking
for
as
much
ammo
as
we
traditionally
do.
Okay,.
A
G
Y
No,
that's
not
where
we
do
it,
and
so
when
I
say
it
goes
bad,
we
carry
duty
ammunition
and
we
create
we
practice
with
training
ammunition,
there's
different
costs
for
those
the
duty
ammunition.
We
have
to
switch
out
after
so
many
months
days
years,
whatever
you
want
to
call
it
so
those
gets
replaced.
Training
ammunition
is
used
for
our
training
qualifications,
so
we
actually
don't
use
the
most
expensive
ammunition
to
train
with.
We
use
that
to
deploy.
S
A
F
I
believe
that
the
dearborn
heights
city
council
approved
the
agreement
between
oakland
county
and
the
city
of
dearborn
heights
for
the
purpose
of
providing
information
technology
services
for
the
public
body
pursuant
to
michigan
law.
This
is
an
agreement
with
columbus.
I
t
services
which
is
used
for
law
enforcement,
records
management
system
and
other
related
technology.
In
addition,
authorize
the
mayor
and
city
clerk
to
sign
the
agreement
on
behalf
of
the
city
as
outlined
in
9.
I
support.
A
F
And
it's
a
it's
a
it's
just
a
great
idea
to
have
a
great
idea
thing
to
have
and
so
and
and
it
it
goes
to
supporting
our
police
department.
So
that's
my
opinion
on
it
and
I,
I
think
I'm
correct
by
saying
it
was
oakland
county's
baby
and
that's
who
we
go
through.
So
if
mr,
mr
myers,
our
chief,
wants
to
respond
to
that
I'd
appreciate
it.
Y
So
yeah
again
back
in
roughly
2006
police
world
started
to
try
to
catch
up
with
the
rest
of
the
professional
world
and
modernize
their
systems
and
go
digital
and
computerized
oakland
county
created
a
company
for
the
lack
of
a
better
word
called
clemis.
That
is
a
record
management
system
specific
for
law
enforcement.
Y
They
started
in
oakland
county.
It
is
now
the
largest
in
michigan.
I
don't
have
their
exact
numbers,
but
you're
talking
hundreds
of
agencies
throughout
the
state
that
utilize
their
record
management
system,
their
traffic
crash
system,
their
citation
system,
their
picture
link,
their
aphis
system
for
fingerprints
to
the
federal
state
and
local
levels.
This
is
a
all
one-stop
shopping
law
enforcement
technology
for
what
they
would
like
to
see
all
of
michigan,
but
that
most
agencies,
especially
in
southeast
michigan,
participated.
Y
A
Thank
you
chief,
any
other
discussions
chief.
I
failed
to
do
this
at
the
last
meeting,
so
I
I
just
want
to
bring
it
up
right
now,
and
I
know
it's
not
the
exact
but
just
want
to
thank
the
men
and
women
in
blue
for
the
job
they've
done.
When
I
read
in
the
paper
that
we
were
the
10th
safest
city
in
all
of
michigan,
that
was
impressive,
so
I
just
want
to
thank
you
guys
for
doing
everything
you
can
to
help
our
residents
and
and
keep
us
all
safe.
D
G
A
C
A
G
Concentrator,
yes,
originally,
like
I
said
I
I
was
going
to
ask
to
take
this
to
a
study
session
in
a
in
a
public
forum
hearing
or
something
like
that.
But
after
listening
to
all
the
residents
and
talk-
and
I
personally
talked
to
over
a
dozen
deborah
heights
police
officers
and
a
couple
in
dearborn
and
several
of
the
dispatchers
in
dublin
heights
and
dearborn,
I
think
we
should
do
the
right
thing
by
representing
the
residents
of
dearborn
heights
and
voting
this
down.
A
G
G
C
D
So
you
know
I
know
this
is
very
controversial.
I've
received
lots
of
phone
calls
regarding
this
believe
it
or
not
in
support
of
this
and
then
not
in
support
of
it.
I've
had
you
know
residence
tommy,
which
makes
a
ton
of
sense.
I
don't
want
to
see
anybody
lose
their
job
from
being.
You
know
in
the
dispatch
center,
but
there
could
be
a
potential
where
they
can
be
going
to
dearborn,
but
then
you
have
also
all
the
residents
that
say:
hey
mo
my
taxes
are
already
too
high.
D
D
You
know,
unfortunately,
I
was
not
on
that
meeting.
I
may
have
watched
it
on
youtube,
but
being
that
there
was
a
study
session,
I'm
not
sure.
If
I
did.
I
don't
know
enough
to
be
able
to
vote
with
my
conscience
100
on
this,
and
I
know
that
you
know
initially,
I
actually
got
I
felt
so
relieved
knowing
that
this
was
going
to
go
to
a
study
session,
that
I
was
going
to
be
able
to
look
at
both
sides
everybody's
going
to
be
able
to
voice
their
opinion.
D
D
So
I
mean
you
know
that
way
you
can
have
you
know
our
chief
of
police,
maybe
the
fire
and
the
police
chief
there.
I
can
get
a
little
bit
of
a
better
understanding.
The
residents
come
and
voice
their
opinion
and
at
the
end
of
the
day
we
all
want
to
do
what's
best
and
as
councilman
once
so
said,
we
are
the
voice
for
the
residents,
but
I
don't
feel
like
I
know
enough,
so
I
it's
hard
for
me
to
be
able
to
vote
on
this,
to
shut
it
down
or
to
leave.
D
You
know
to
vote
on
it
or
vote
against
it.
So
I
would
ask
the
honorable
counselor
to
allow
this
to
be
able
to
go
to
a
study
session
just
so
that
I
can
feel
comfortable
with
which
way
I
vote,
because
really
it's
a
really
hard
vote,
and
I
can't
just
tell
you-
I
know
enough
on
this
information
it
showed
up
on
us
and
I
found
out
about
this
on
thursday.
Here
we
are
on
tuesday
and
we're
looking
to
make
a
decision
to.
Potentially
you
know-
and
I.
D
Residents
are
okay
with
increasing
their
taxes,
but
there
are
others
that
are
not
okay
with
it,
and
I
know
that
there
are
some
residents
that
are
okay
with
sending
this
over
to
dear,
when
there
are
someone
that
are
not
okay
with
sending
this
over
to
dearborn.
So
I
I
don't
ultimately
have
a
vote
that
I
can
make
right
off
the
rip.
A
F
You
know
I
I
received
a
lot
of
phone
calls
too,
and
I
spoke
with
councilman
baiduan
and
councilman
zohar
abdal
hawk
and
also
with
councilman
robert
constant,
and
this
is
tough,
and
you
know
I
I
believe
the
last
time
we
spoke
that
we
we
kind
of
agreed,
I
do
believe
to
a
public
hearing
which
is
a
little
bit
different
than
a
study
session.
Okay-
and
you
know,
a
public
hearing
would
be
ideal.
F
F
My
personal
opinion
on
this
is
this
should
have
been
a
ballot
issue
all
along.
This
is
a
lot
of
money
that
we
spend.
Okay.
This
is
no
different
than
bonds
and
and
things
of
that
nature,
the
city
is
somewhat
divided.
I
can't
say
if
it's
50,
50
or
60
40.,
but
with
the
phone
calls
I
get
right
now,
it's
sitting
at
100
against,
but
that
not
everybody's
calling
me
10
phone
calls
doesn't
add
up
to
60
000
people,
but
you
know
this
to
me.
It
should
be
a
valid
issue.
F
We've
got
election
coming
up
in
august
and
the
quicker
we
do
something.
Maybe
we
can
get
it
on
the
ballot
and
solve
this.
Let
the
people
solve
it.
This
is
their
9-1-1.
Okay.
Now
I
don't
know
if
mr
miyaki
knows
what
the
legal
ramifications
of
that
are,
if
we
can
even
put
it
on
the
ballot,
but
that's
my
feeling
on
the
thing.
Okay-
and
maybe
you
can
turn
this
over
to
mr
miyaki-
to
say
something
if,
if
I'm
gonna
cheat
here
or
not
okay,
I.
A
C
C
C
A
E
I
spoke
to
the
chief
at
length
I
spoke
to
yourself
and
I
spoke
to
councilman
ray
musket-
would
would
like
to
hear
some
more
information
and
also
want
to
hear
from
our
police
chief
and
fire
chief
and
our
new
mayor
as
to
their
viewpoint.
But
after
we
get
some
some
additional
information,
I
received
a
call,
for
example,
someone
called
and
said:
well
we
we
don't
need
to
sell
our
our
dispatch,
we're
not
selling
it
we're
most
of
the
state
of
michigan.
E
A
A
W
Go
ahead
to
address
muscat's
concern.
I
guess
it
would
be
possible
to
end
up
having
something
along
these
lines
approved,
but
very
difficult
to
imagine
that
this
would
be.
I
mean
we
have
moving
parts
in
this
situation.
We
have
the
city
of
dearborn.
That
would
need
to
wait
for
us
to
essentially
do
something
along
these
lines.
W
I
know
that
chief
myers
has
been
very
diligent
in
addressing
these
these
issues
with
the
city
of
dearborn
and
negotiating
with
the
city
of
dearborn
and
frankly,
I
don't
know
how
patient
city
of
dearborn
would
be
with
respect
to
this
particular
issue.
So
while
it
would
be
possible,
some
of
it
would
depend
on
the
city
of
dearborn
being
willing
to
leave
this
matter
open
in
this
fashion,
to
wait
for
us
to
have
a
vote
and
so
on
and
so
forth.
F
It
does,
but
you
know
we
can't
always
rely
on
what
somebody
else
does
for
them.
For
for
our
residents,
we've
got
to
take
care
of
our
residents
first,
and
you
know,
unfortunately,
I
I
think
that
putting
it
on
a
ballot,
let
them
decide
what
they
want
to
do
and
how
they
want
to
do
it
or
we
pay
for
it
or
we
pay
dearborn.
It's
it
to
me.
It
should
be
up
to
to
the
residents.
This
is
this.
Isn't,
for
this
is
about
safety.
F
F
Yes,
so
it's
just
that's
that's
the
opinion
I
have,
and
I
also
want
to
protect
the
workers
of
of
of
the
9-1-1
these
people.
From
what
I
read
on
the
contract.
It's
not
going
to
be
easy
for
them
to
get
a
job
there.
If
they
were
good
enough
to
be
for
dearborn
heights
9-1-1,
they
ought
to
be
able
to
go
anywhere
and
get
a
job
immediately
without
hesitation,
they
shouldn't
be
put
on
any
waiting
program
or
testing
or
anything.
They
know
what
they're
doing
they
know
the
city
of
dearborn
knights,
council,
chair.
W
Thank
you
and
and
councilman.
I
expressed
no
opinion
about
the
merits
or
the
lack
of
merits
of
this
proposal.
That's
not
my
role,
I'm
I'm
merely
mentioning
that
the
idea
of
putting
it
on
the
ballot
and
the
city
of
dearborn
may
say
well
we're
not
interested
in
partnering
with
you
at
this
time,
if
they're
waiting,
so
that
would
have
to
be
something
that
would
have
to
be
explored
with
the
city
of
dearborn
to
make
this
an
actual
viable
option
for
city
residents.
You
know
if
it
was
put
on
the
ballot.
A
F
A
Y
Y
Y
Can
hear
you,
it
was
dated
february
19th,
friday
february
19th
at
808,
right
after
this
packet
went
out.
It
said
council
members
upon
your
review
of
the
council
agenda
scheduled
for
february
23
2021
item
9j
is
a
request
for
approval
of
agreement
for
consolidated
dispatch
services
with
the
city
of
dearborn.
I
requested
the
agreement
be
placed
on
the
agenda,
so
you
may
start
your
review
process
of
the
document.
Your
timely
approval
of
this
agreement
is
essential
to
the
effectiveness
of
our
public
safety
services.
Y
I
am
fully
aware
that
the
council
may
request
a
special
study
session
to
again
review
both
the
operational
and
financial
benefits
of
participating
in
consolidated
dispatch
center.
If
a
study
session
is
appropriate,
I
urge
you
to
schedule
it
on
or
before
the
next
council
meeting.
I
am
prepared
to
have
that
session
at
your
request.
As
early
as
the
following
day,
we
conducted
a
study
session
in
the
summer
of
2020,
in
which
a
presentation
illustrated
the
operational
need
and
the
financial
benefit
of
consolidation
with
dearborn
united
dispatch.
Y
Those
needs
and
benefits
have
only
grown
over
the
last
10
months.
Fire
chief
brogan
is
included
in
this
email
and
it
has
endorsed
and
fully
supports
the
approval
of
this
agreement.
Thank
you
for
your
time.
Mark
mark
myers,
chief
of
police.
I
then
resent
that,
because
of
some
email
issues
with
council
people
on
monday
february,
22nd
at
1
45
p.m.
Y
So
I
think
it
would
be
fair
to
let
the
citizens
know
that
this
was
never
meant
to
be
voted
on
to
be
approved.
It
was
meant
to
be
bringing
up
the
discussion,
so
we
have
that
transparency,
so
all
of
our
citizens
have
the
opportunity
to
chime
in
on
this.
I
think
that
was
missed
in
this
conversation
and
I
think
it's
very
important.
I
want
to
have
this
discussion.
Y
I
want
people
to
be
involved.
I
also
truly
believe
it
is
the
best
and
we'll
talk
about
that
in
the
study
session
if
it's
approved,
but
I
think
they
need
to
know
that
both
the
player,
fire
and
police
administration
have
taken.
This
very
seriously
understand
the
need
for
them
to
have
their
voice,
but
also
to
see
the
data.
The
statistics,
the
financials
and
the
operational
need.
So
once
again,
I'm
repeating
that
email
to
all
of
you.
Y
Y
C
D
A
Okay,
thank
you
councilman
any
other
items
of
discussion,
so
I
just
want
to
say
on
mine.
I
just
want
to
say
my
little
items
of
discussion
on
my
end.
I
was
now
fully
aware
of
combined
dispatch
that
wasn't
aware
of
the
logistics
and
how
it
works
in
the
whole
nine
yards,
but
I
just
want
to
clarify
for
some
of
the
residents
some
of
the
things
I
was
able
to
find
through
combined
dispatch
number
one.
A
I've
had
residents
contact
me
and
think
that
this
will
basically
mean
like
if
we
combined
with
dearborn
that
basically
jim
wants
police
department
would
be
pretty
much
policing
our
area.
I
just
want
to
clarify
that
that
would
not
be
the
case.
It
would
still
be
our
own
men
and
women
in
blue
protecting
us.
A
The
second
thing
I
want
to
mention
is:
I
took
a
trip
and
I
highly
recommend
you
know
all
the
council
members
take
these
types
of
trips
for
actual
visual
tour
of
our
own
dispatch,
which
you
know
the
ladies
and
gentlemen
that
are
doing
the
work
there
are
doing.
You
know
the
best
they
can
under
the
circumstances,
but
our
I.t
and
our
technology
is
definitely
just
even
visually
looking
at
it.
A
You
can
tell
it's
dated
and
when
I've
asked
the
experts
in
that
particular
field,
being
our
police
department
or
it
whatever
they've
said,
it's
it's
way
outdated
as
compared
to
some
of
the
things
that
are
in
the
dearborn
dispatch.
In
addition
to
that,
I
have
taken
three
tours
of
the
deal.
One
dispatch
and-
and
I
gotta
tell
you
again-
that
is
not
my
field
of
expertise.
A
I
apologize
for
that
for
guys
name,
but
I
took
a
tour
of
that
three
different
times
and
they
showed
me
their
different
technology,
including
one
of
the
concerns
a
lot
of
residents
had
is.
If
somebody
calls
and
the
person
handling
dispatch
doesn't
know
the
particular
area,
are
they
able
to
be
able
to
handle
that
call?
A
If
they
don't
know
the
vibe
of
the
particular
neighborhood
and
the
reality
is
they
don't
have
to,
and
they
gave
me
an
example,
they
said:
go
ahead,
go
to
your
cell
phone
walk
around
and
just
call
from
anywhere
inside
the
dispatch,
and
I
did
and
it
was
instantly-
and
I
called-
and
I
was
not
supposed
to
give
them
an
address
or
anything
like
that.
But
you
can
see
right
on
the
screen
it's
instantly,
pointing
where
I'm
at
as
I'm
moving
et
cetera,
et
cetera.
A
A
If
you
don't
mind,
but
all
I'm
asking
the
residents
to
do
is
be
open-minded
to
listen
to
the
facts
about
this,
and
then
we
could
all
make
a
decision
on
your
behalf
and
know
this
each
and
every
one
of
us
will
do
the
best
they
can
to
to
make
a
decision.
That's
I'm
not
that's
in
the
best
interest
of
the
residents.
Thank
you.
AA
Y
Y
Well,
the
executive
director
of
contra
conference
of
western
wayne
will
come
in
at
a
study
session
if
we
have
one
and
speak
on
some
of
the
state
legislature
and
mandates
that
we
have
to
do
briefly.
Speaking
right
now,
we
know
that
the
pfn
system,
which
I'm
gonna
it's
gonna,
be
talking
way
out
of
my
head.
If
I
try
to
tell
you
what
a
pfn
is
for
a
9-1-1,
but
it's
a
mandatory
equipment
upgrade
of
250
000
that
has
to
be
done
by
this
september
period,
we've
tried
to
get
it
budgeted.
Y
Y
There
was
a
push
a
few
years
back
that
they
were
going
to
tie
money
to
consolidation.
That
has
not
happened
yet.
Will
it
happen?
That
would
be
a
great
question
for
the
executive
director
of
conference
of
western
wayne
because
they
followed
the
legislation
on
what
goes
on
with
9-1-1
centers.
Finally,
this
isn't
unique
consolidated
dispatch.
Y
The
entire
up
is
on
two
systems
for
the
entire
up
up,
not
everybody
knows
every
street
there,
many
counties,
kent
county,
mccomb,
county,
all
the
jurisdictions
without
in
those
counties
all
work
on
one,
those
dispatchers
that
work
in
those
centers
do
not
know
every
street.
It's
called
computer-aided
dispatch
because
the
computer
allows
you
to
know
where
those
officers
need
to
go
based
on
gis
based
on
locations
that
are
given
by
the
people
that
are
needing
assistance.
Y
We
want
to
have
the
discussion,
but
we
also,
as
leaders
in
these
agencies,
understand
where
911
dispatch
is
going,
the
capabilities
that
we're
allowed
to
and
can
afford
to
do
as
a
sole
jurisdiction
and
the
benefits
of
of
a
multi-jurisdictional
operation,
so
I'll,
let
chief
brogan
chime
in,
but
I
believe
it's
a
miscarriage
if
we
don't
have
this
study
session,
because
it's
an
uninformed
decision
at
that
point.
Thank
you.
AB
Yeah,
thank
you.
Thank
you
councilman.
I
yeah.
I
just
wanted
to
say
that
there
are.
We
all
had
concerns
about
about
any
kind
of
merger
like
this.
It
is.
It
is
kind
of
a
a
nerve
wracking
to
think
of
taking
that
step,
but
we
aren't
the
first
ones
that
have
gone
through
it
now,
we've
seen
it
throughout
the
state.
AB
I
I've
spoken
with
the
fire
chiefs
from
all
the
communities
that
are
involved
in
in
the
dispatch
centers
now
and
they've
been
very
pleased
with
the
service
that
they've
gotten
any
concerns
that
they've
had
have
been
taken
very
seriously,
and
I
can
tell
you
that
chief
myers
and
myself
would
not
accept
a
subpar
service
from
from
dispatch.
So
that's
not
something
that
would
be
okay.
What
we're
doing
right
now
just
isn't
sustainable.
AB
We
really
need
to
take
a
very
good
look
at
this
and
and
make
sure
that
we're
doing
the
best
thing
for
our
citizens,
the
best
thing
for
our
firefighters
and
police
officers
and-
and
it
certainly
needs
to
have
open
mind
like
like
we're
talking
about
to
take
a
look
at
all
of
the
facts
and
make
an
informed
decision
on
what
is
the
best
thing
for
all
of
the
citizens
for
the
safety
of
everyone.
We're
talking
about
the
safety.
I've
dedicated
my
entire
career
to
the
safety
of
the
citizens
of
dearborn
heights.
AB
A
Thank
you,
fire
chief
dave
brogan
and
I
I
just
want
to
add
just
a
quick
comment.
One
of
the
reasons
personally,
I
believe,
would
be.
It
would
be
a
great
idea
to
have
a
study
session
on
this,
a
to
bring
us
all
up
to
date
with
what
the
latest
technology
is
and
in
what
direction
different
cities
have
gone.
But
in
addition
to
that,
the
dynamics
of
the
city
has
changed.
You
know,
god
rests
his
soul.
A
Mayor
paletko
has
passed
on
and
we
have
a
new
mayor
mayor
bazi,
so
you
know
for
me
personally,
I
tell
you
I
want
to
know
where
the
mayor
stands
on
this
I'd
like
to
know
what
new
things
have
come
up
and
also
we
have
obviously
some
new
council
members.
So
I
think
a
study
session,
in
my
opinion,
would
would
be
a
good
idea,
but
also
in
addition
to
that.
F
If
we
do
go
to
a
public
hearing
or
study
session,
I
I
believe
they're
two
different
type
things
and
I
I
would
like
to
get
this
done
as
soon
as
possible.
As
early
as
next
tuesday,
we
don't
have
a
council
meeting
then,
and
we
need
to
publicize
it.
Just
a
few
weeks
ago,
we
were
getting
almost
200
people
in
our
in
in
these
these
zoom
meetings.
Okay,
we
need
to
have
two
300
people
come
to
this.
People
need
to
know
what
it's,
what
it,
what
it
really
is.
F
Chief
myers
brought
up
some
great
points.
Okay,
I
think
every
one
of
us
has
brought
up
a
good
point
about
this.
This
is
big.
This
is
really
big
folks
and
I
don't
want
to
be
just
a
person,
that's
responsible
for
making
it
go
or
not.
Go
and
and
people
need
to
voice
their
opinion
and
know
exactly
what
they're
getting
into
either
way.
So
that's
what
I
would
like
to
see
is
this
go
to
a
public
hearing.
F
A
C
G
I'm
not
going
to
change
my
motion.
We
should
vote
on
this
yes
or
no
right
now.
If
you
feel
you
should
this
should
pass
vote.
Yes,
if
you
don't
you
know,
and
then,
if
it's
voted
nodes,
it
can
always
be
brought
up
again
and
we
can
do
this,
but
there's
a
motion
on
the
table
right
now
and
it's
been
seconded.
A
G
They
should
always
be
brought
up
in
the
future
in
the
right
way.
You
know
if
they
want
to
set
up
the
town
hall
meeting.
We
don't
want
anything
everything
transparent
right
now,
you
know.
Obviously
it's
not
the
residents
aren't
aware
of
everything
that's
going
on,
so
let's
vote
vote
on
this.
Yes,
if
you
want
to
go
ahead
with
this
vote,
yes,
if
you
want
to
vote
no
and
have
these
and
have
some
sessions
later,
that
that's
fine,
so.
A
To
clarify
for
some
of
the
council
members,
if
you
voted-
and
I
just
want
to
make
sure
I'm
clarifying
so
that
we
vote
the
right
way
if
you
vote
yes
on
this,
then
that
would
be
basically
approving
this
and
we
would
have.
We
would
go
in
a
direction
and
going
towards
a
combined
dispatch.
Okay,
if
we
vote
no
on
this,
it
would
be
turned
down,
but
that
does
not
preclude
us
or
stop
us
from
having
a
starting
session
and
even
possibly
brought
forward.
The
next
council
meeting
is
that
correct,
madame
clerk.
I
G
W
W
W
C
A
A
If
you
could
bear
with
us
here
and
repeat
your
motion
again,
then
I'm
gonna
have
our
counselor
gary
miyatki,
our
attorney
gary
miyatki
make
sure
this
motion
was
made
properly
and
then
I'm
going
to
have
our
madam
clerk
just
100
verify
that
we
are
correct
and
then
you
can
clarify
what
we
are
specifically
voting
on
yes
or
no
on,
so
that
everybody's
is
clear
on
this.
Is
that
is
that,
okay
by
everyone.
G
G
F
B
A
G
A
We'll
still
make
it
your
motion:
okay,
so
motioned
by
councilman
tom
wenzel
and
I'm
reading
on
his
behalf.
Only
that
the
gentleman
heights
city
council
approved
the
agreement
for
police
and
fire
dispatch
services
between
the
city
of
dearborn
and
the
city
of
dearborn
heights.
In
addition,
authorized
the
mayor
to
sign
on
behalf
of
the
city
as
outlined
in
item
in
as
outlined
in
item
nine
j.
A
F
W
W
A
W
A
A
A
F
F
B
F
F
It
doesn't
matter
what
day
we
have
it.
Maybe
it
will
be
tuesday.
It
may
not,
but
okay
we'll
be
able
to
look
that
up
and
if
it
happens
to
be
wednesday,
thursday
or
friday,
so
be
it
okay,
but
we
we
gotta,
get
an
answer
to
this.
We've
gotta
help
chief
myers
on
this
he's
worked
hard
on
this,
regardless
of
which
way
we
go
with
it.
Okay,
that's
how
I
want
to
do
it
about
you
know,
and
it
doesn't
matter.
If
dearborn
can't
wait
that
that's
okay
they've
waited
this
long.
B
A
Okay,
okay,
can
you
give
us
a
so
that
we
can
all
vote
on
this
the
proper
way,
because
I
know
it's
councilman
ray
musk
has
asked
for
a
public
hearing.
So
just
for
clarification
purposes.
I
know
you
had
some
concerns
and
that
doesn't
mean
yes
or
no,
I'm
just
saying
roughly
how
much
time
does
it
take
to
be
able
to
take
place
if
we
follow
the
protocols
and
logistics.
B
A
F
B
A
W
However,
if
you
want
to
have
the
notice
in
the
paper
which
you
can
do
a
notice
in
the
paper,
even
if
it's
going
to
end
up
being
sufficient
to
do
it
electronically,
that
would
end
up
taking
more
time.
That's
why
I
held
up
like
four
fingers,
because
my
understanding
is
that
there
is
some
delay
if
you're
going
to
do
it
in
the
local
paper
as
well,
so
I
mean
either
way
you're
compliant.
The
real
issue
is:
how
do
you
want
it
to
end
up
being
done
by
the
clerk's
office.
A
A
Okay
and
I'd
like
to
add
a
little
bit
of
a
discussion,
I'd
like
john's
and
dk-
and
I
know
he's
done
some
social
media
stuff
on
behalf
of
us
and
let's
face
it,
social
media
is
the
way
a
lot
of
people
communicate
nowadays.
So
I'd
like
obviously
with
the
mayors.
Okay,
have
them
maybe
work
on
something
to
give
this
little
exposure
so
that
our
residents
can
give
our
their
input
to
their
council
members.
So
we
can
make
a
a
better
vote.
A
E
Yeah,
I
I
think
I
I
echo
councilman
musket's
strong
desire
to
have
a
public
meeting,
but
I
think
if
we
have
a
study
session
open
to
the
public,
a
public
hearing
is
for
certain
matters
like
the
need
for
cdbg
money
or
a
particular
grant
or
something.
I
think
what
we're
talking
about
is
a
a
study
session,
where
we
hear
the
facts,
but
it's
open
to
the
public
and
maybe
not
immediately
this
tuesday.
E
So
it
can
be
advertised
these
days,
as
we
all
know,
spending
the
money
to
post
something
in
the
paper
may
be
sort
of
a
waste
of
money
to
to
get
it
out
on
social
media.
But
that
that's
all
I
have
to
say.
I
think
what
we
want
to
hear
is
from
the
police
chief
from
the
fire
chief
and
then
from
the
public
on
on
what
people's
questions
are.
A
Thank
you,
councilman
robert
constant.
My
concern
was
also
is
because
it's
a
new
item
for
some
of
the
council
members.
It
is
a
new
item.
Of
course
our
mayor
was
on
the
council
back
then,
but
as
a
mayor
right
now,
obviously
he's
got
a
little
bit
of
a
different
perspective
on
this
or
could
have
a
different
perspective
on
this.
So
that
being
the
case,
if
we
delayed
two
weeks
worst
case
three
weeks,
I
don't
think
it's.
The
end
of
the
world.
A
A
F
F
A
Okay,
so
so
councilman
just
to
repeat
your
motion,
let
me
know
if
there's
anything
incorrect.
Your
motion
is
to
put
item
9j
to
a
study
session,
I'm
sorry
to
a
public
hearing
advertise
it
in
the
local
paper
correct
and
on
our
website
absolutely
media,
and
do
this
as
soon
as
it
possibly
logistically
can
be
done.
Is
that
correct,
councilman
muscle.
F
F
A
A
F
I
move
that
the
city
of
dearborn
heights
approved
the
resolution
for
new
mayor
appointed
position
and
create
the
present
position
of
director
of
grants
and
budget
compliance,
dgbc
and
authorize
the
mayor
to
fill
this
position.
In
addition,
authorize
the
city
comptroller
to
fund
a
dgbc
position
from
the
mayor's
office
budget
foot
for
year.
2020
account
number
101-171.
A
E
E
Typically,
what
happens
is
so
if
the
fire
department
wants
a
some
grant
money,
the
chief,
maybe
with
the
help
of
some
people
in
the
department,
knowing
all
the
background,
knowing
the
specifics,
the
the
details,
the
numbers
rights
for
the
grant
and
then
same
thing
with
if
it's
the
building
department
or
if
it's
the
ordinance
department
and
that's
the
problem
with
having
one
separate
position,
so
this
matter
also
might
need
to
be
moved
to
a
study
session.
But
again,
I'd
I'd
like
to
hear
what
our
you
know.
E
F
Can
I
interview
you
last
night,
you
know
for
for
six
years
I've
been
wanting
something
like
this.
You
know
we,
as
a
council
have
had
last
minute
things.
We've
been
giving
we've
been
given
things
that
we
have
to
vote
on
on
good
faith.
I've
said
it
many
times.
I
don't
have
a
staff
of
people
to
work.
For
me
I
don't
know
the
ins
and
outs
and
nobody
knows
all
the
ins
and
outs
when
someone
gives
you
a
budget
you're
thinking
that
the
budget
is
completely
fine.
F
We
just
had
a
study
session
early
where
taxpayers
were
over
taxed
6.8
million
dollars.
Nobody
ever
even
knew
it.
Okay,
no
one
knew
it.
We've
had
a
lot
of
things
come
before
city
council,
and
we
did
not
know,
and
we
we
passed
things
in
good
faith.
We
also
passed
a
contract
with
tpom
that
we
thought
was
a
good
contract
till
it
came
back
because
it
wasn't
a
good
contract.
F
Okay,
so
you
know
it's.
It
only
helps
us
to
make
sure
that
everything
is
right
on
everything
and
other
cities
have
things
like
this.
This
is
where
it
came
from.
This
is
not
something
that's
going
to
be
new
or
new
to
the
city
or
it
might
be
new
to
our
city,
but
it's
not
new
anywhere.
It's
it's
like
that
everywhere.
Okay
and,
like
I
said,
I
don't
want
to
take
anything
in
good
faith
anymore.
F
We
purchased
the
vehicle
for
our
former
mayor
car
was
supposed
to
go
to
the
police
department,
okay
supposed
to
go
to
the
doggone
police
department
and
it
went
somewhere
else,
I'm
tired
of
getting
duped.
I
don't
want
to
be
duke
no
more
and
I
don't
care
who
the
mayor
is.
He
could
be
my
friend
he
could
be
my
enemy.
I
don't
want
it
anymore.
C
A
Z
Thank
thank
you,
council,
chair
pro
tem,
abdullah
and
also
councilman
constant
and
councilman
muscat.
For
your
comments.
We've
actually
had
some
discussion
here.
You
know
when
we
saw
this
on
the
agenda.
I
had
a
good
discussion
with
our
hr
director,
elizabeth
and
also
with
our
city
attorney
mr
miyaki,
regarding
this
topic.
Z
I
think
the
best
thing
to
do
with
this
once
once
it's
passed,
we're
not
going
to
make
it
as
a
permanent
position
for
right
now,
because
we
would
have
to
create
an
ordinance
to
add
it
to
at
a
position
such
as
this
position.
So
what
was
recommended
is
we
actually
we
can?
We
can
appoint
somebody
and
not
violating
the
civil
service
guidelines
for
six
months
and
just
see
what
happens
again.
You
know
so
we're
not
creating
a
new
position.
Z
E
Z
W
Yes,
the
mayor
and
I
had
a
very
good
discussion
about
what
he
envisioned
with
respect
to
this
position.
He
saw
it
as
an
idea
worth
exploring,
but
he
wanted
to
make
sure
that
the
cost
would
would
not
outweigh
the
benefits
in
the
long
run.
He
wanted
to
see
if
the
position
would
produce
what
we're
all
hoping
that
it
will,
and
I
told
him
then
what
we
could
do
is
to
end
up
in
compliance
with
the
civil
service
rules.
W
Have
it
as
a
temporary
appointment
and
if
it
looks
like
it,
was
working
really
well,
then
we
could
end
up
having
an
ordinance
like
we
did
when
the
ordinance
enforcement
department
was
created
and
with
an
ordinance
allowing
for
the
creation
of
new
department.
The
director
of
that
department
would
then
be
an
appointee
of
the
mayor
as
a
department
head,
and
that
would
be
fully
compliant
with
the
charter,
and
I
thought
it
was
a
very
a
very
reasonable
approach
and
I
agree
with
it.
F
Well,
mr
council,
council,
yes
go
ahead.
I'd
like
to
amend
my
motion,
then
that
the
city
of
dearborn
knights
approved
a
resolution
for
a
new
mayor
appointed
position
for
six
months
to
a
position
of
director
of
grants
and
budget
compliance,
gbc
and
authorize
the
mayor
to
fill
that
position
temporarily.
F
A
D
Thank
you.
I
think
this
is
something
as
a
grant
writer.
I
think
it's
important
it's
imperative
to
have
in
the
city
of
dearborn
heights,
but
as
I
look
at
this
resolution
that
was
put
forward
by
our
honorable
council,
tamwonso
zohar
abdul
and
ray
musket.
As
I
look
at
this,
I
want
to
know
if
we're
going
to
improve
on
this
today.
Does
that
mean
that
you
know
before
the
the
mayor
can
appoint
somebody?
D
They
have
to
have
five
years
of
working
experience
as
a
director
for
the
department
head,
I
mean
that's
gonna,
you
know
really
limit
to
who
we
can
really
find
to
this
position.
I
mean
I
don't
know.
I
can't
count
on
my
hands
on
two
fingers,
how
many
people
held
a
five-year
position
as
a
as
a
director.
I
mean
you
know
we
could
potentially
have
somebody
coming
in
from
lansing.
That
was
once.
D
In
the
city
of
durban,
heights
who
worked
in
lansing
is
moving
here.
You
know,
wants
to
work
in
the
house
and
work
for
the
city
of
dubai,
but
doesn't
have
five
years
of
department
head,
so
I
feel
like
if
we
can
amend
this
a
little
bit
more,
not
having
all
these
restrictions
on
who
can
be
appointed
for
this
position,
because
I
think
this
grant
writer
is
much
needed
and
say
that
we,
you
know,
appoint
somebody.
D
D
I'm
sorry,
I
don't
know
how
many
people
are
there,
a
director
for
the
permanent
for
five
years
with
all
due
respect,
I'm
not
saying
to
not.
Have
it
right
be
able
to
look
they.
You
know
I
want
to
be
able
to
look
at.
You
know
a
bunch
of
different
options
that
are
going
to
be
brought
forward
from
the
mayor
to
say:
okay,
perfect,
I
mean
at
the
end
of
the
day
the
mayor's
going
to
make
that
decision
and
the
council
is
going
to
approve
it.
F
D
C
D
W
That
councilman
abdel
hawks
recommendation,
as
agreed
to
by
councilman
musket
alleviates
that
problem
with
the
word,
preferably
being
added
into
the
resolution,
and
I
think
the
rest
of
it
would
be
a
practical
matter
for
the
administration
to
try
to
find
someone,
and
if
the
administration
is
not
able
to
do
so,
then
they
would
not.
It
would
not
have
to
do
so,
namely
the
mayor
would
not
have
to
do
so.
So
I
think
the
fix
that's
been
suggested
by
councilman.
Abdulhock
addresses
the
matter
adequately.
G
Yeah
as
a
a
co-writer
on
this,
I
agree
with
that
that
verbage
change
and,
as
everyone
knows,
that
they've
been
watching
the
meetings.
I've
been
a
proponent
of
grant
writer
for
a
long
time,
and
this
is
something
we
really
need,
and
possibly
maybe
I
don't
know
about
the
legality,
but
maybe
the
p,
a
part.
A
portion
of
the
the
salary
for
this
person
could
be
taken
out
of
a
small
percentage
of
the
grants
received.
I
don't
know
if
that's
legal
or
not
so
we
might
be
able
to.
A
Thank
you
congressman.
As
far
as
I'm
concerned
myself.
Personally,
I've
always
been
in
favor
of
hiring
a
grant
writer
for
our
city.
They
can
definitely
bring
in
a
lot
more
money
than
what
we
pay
for
a
grant
writer.
So
on
that
and
I'm
okay,
I
did
have
some
concerns
in
regards
to
this
resolution.
One
of
them
was-
and
maybe
you
guys
got
some
one
at
a
time
eventually,
but
today
one
of
them
was
a
salary
of
76
thousand
dollars.
A
A
A
So
I,
like
that,
a
little
better,
but
then
we
do
have
on
there
that
they
have
to
have
a
master's
degree
from
a
u.s
accredited
higher
education
institution
and
a
bachelor's
degree
in
accounting,
and
I'm
just
wondering
with
these
types
of
criteria,
the
salary
and
everything
else
involved,
and
the
fact
that
it's
gonna
be
right
now,
180
day,
hiring
a
if
you
have
somebody
with
that
type
of
criteria
b.
If
somebody
would
want
to
be
hired
for
just
180
days
and
see,
is
that
exact
criteria
absolutely
mandatory?
A
Or
can
somebody
and
I'm
just
throwing
it
out
there
like,
like
just
hypothetically
a
former
mayor
of
another
city?
Maybe
that
has
an
accounting
background
that
maybe
doesn't
have
a
master's
degree
which
we
said
right
now
would
be
preferable.
But
I'm
giving
you
as
an
example
or
or
doesn't
have
a
master's
degree.
I
should
say
that
type
of
person
can
possibly.
C
A
H
E
D
So
I
don't
I
don't
mind
even
voting
on
this.
I
think
this
is
something
like
you
know.
If
the
mayor
said
this
is
180
days,
I
mean
I'm
sure
you
know
we
can
you
know
some
people
are
going
to
apply
for
this.
I
I
mean
I
actually
my
another.
Other
question
would
be.
Is
this
going
to
be
published?
Is
america
going
to
publish
this
positions
are
open
so
that
people
know
sure.
D
And
so
I
mean
at
that
point
I
mean,
I
think
this
is
something
you
know.
Listen,
I
think
the
grant
writer
is
something
that
we've
always
needed
in
the
city.
I
know,
even
speaking
with
one
of
my
good
friends,
david
konizik
and
his
thing
was
we
always
needed
a
grain
writer
in
the
city
and
we
don't
have
one,
but
I
also
like
what
councilman
of
the
I'm
sorry
councilman
abdullah
said
is
where
we
can
also
bring
a
plant
marine,
which
would
also
ultimately
save
us
some
money.
F
A
H
P
A
It's
so
difficult
to
be
so
the
grant
writing
is
pretty
clear.
Obviously
they
do.
Let's
put
that
aside,
that
one,
I
think,
if
I'm
not
mistaken,
we're
not
taking
this
to
vote,
but
I
don't
think
any
of
the
council
members
have
any
argument
on
that.
One
is,
is
that
correct?
I
know
it's
not
a
vote,
but
none
of
the
council
members,
at
least
from
the
vibe,
have
had
a
problem
with
that,
but
on
the
other
one
who
does
that
person
answer
to?
A
Are
they
on
behalf
of
the
mayor
and
then
putting
us
in
checks
and
balances,
or
are
they
for
us
to
put
the
mayor's
administration
check?
Well,
I
think
it's
a
combination
of
both
between
it
seems
kind
of
a
conflict.
I
don't
say
conflict
of
interest,
but
you
know
check,
check,
checks
and
balances
against.
F
Z
I
mean
basically
just
like
everybody
else
in
the
city,
every
employee,
in
the
city,
they
have
to
work
in
the
best
interest
of
the
city
and
what
whatever
is
best
interest
of
the
city.
This
is,
the
person
will
bring
when
we
bring
somebody
forward
has
to
be,
he
has
to
do
what's
best
for
our
city
and
what's
best
to
move
our
city
forward
and
again,
you
know
with
this
here.
Z
What
we
can
do
is
you
know
six
months,
you
know
we
can
evaluate
it
after
you
know,
before
the
six
months
is
over
to
see
if
the
person
is
performing,
and
you
know
we
can
revisit
it.
You
know
at
that
at
that
time,
and
we
I
mean,
that's,
that's
why
mr
miyaki
and
myself
we
spoke
about
this
with
you
know
and
had
side
conversation
with
elizabeth.
Z
A
E
Council,
chair
pro
tem
dave,
abdullah,
the
only
point
your
point
regarding
the
budget
position.
We
start
with
plant
moran
because
they
have
all
the
data
they
have
all
the
numbers
in
their
computer,
the
past
budgets
and
so
forth.
So
I
would
just
suggest
that's
the
place
to
start,
and
I
think
your
idea
of
paying,
for
example,
plant
moran
something
additional
at
their
whatever
the
rate
is
to
they.
They.
E
Yeah-
and
I
I
I
saw
it
in
reddit-
that
if
we
you're
having
a
problem
with
you
know
this
particular
department
or
with
a
b
and
c
the
handling
of
cash,
the
the
paying
of
debts
by
wire
transfer
that
we
have
them,
suggest,
controls
and
and
ways
to
correct
it.
First,
together
with
the
department
before
we,
we
create
a
you,
know
another
position,
and
it
would
be
really
hard
to
hire
somebody
for
six
months.
E
C
We
have
experience
with
them
for
15
years
we
have
6.8
million
dollars
over
charged
to
the
residents.
Let's
try
something
new,
some
something
fresh
and
the
mayor
has
the
full
discretion
to
pick
the
best
person
for
this
job
in
six
months.
If
this
person
doesn't
do
or
perform
what
was
agreed
on
it
is
the
mayor.
You
know
discretion
to
just
let
them
go.
So,
let's
find
the
best
person
for
this
job
by
letting
it
go
public,
so
people
can
apply
and
he
I'm
sure
he
will
pick
the
best
one
for
our
city.
A
A
J
A
I
A
A
A
F
E
E
A
F
I
got
a
couple
couple
of
things:
one
is
for,
I
guess
director
selmy
cherry
hill
between
beach,
daily
and
inkster.
I
believe
that
stretch
of
road
belongs
to
us.
If
I'm
not
mistaken,
when
can
we
work
with
inkster
on
getting
that
thing
repaired
it?
It's
I
mean,
we've
got
even
a
sewers
are
starting
the
the
drains.
The
storm
drains
are
collapsing
on
our
side
of
the
street
and
yeah
just
doesn't
make
sense,
repairing
those
and
as
the
road
collapses
they'll
collapse
again.
So
that's
one.
P
F
And
I
have
one
more:
if
you
don't
mind,
council
protests
go
ahead,
councilman
muscat!
I
believe
this
would
be
for
the
police
getting
a
lot
of
phone
calls
from
residents
that
live
near
andover
and
gully.
They
would
like
to
see
a
four-way
stop
sign
installed.
There
is
there
something
that
you
could
do
to
look
into
this
and
have
a
two
more
stop
signs
put
in.
Y
Yep,
there's
a
traffic
safety
officer
that
actually
that's
their
title,
they'll
go
out
and
do
the
traffic
study
they'll
measure
the
amount
of
cars
that
pass
through
there
in
the
day,
the
number?
If
there's,
schools
in
the
area,
there's
a
whole
formula
that
they
do
and
then
they
make
the
recommendation
whether
or
not
based
on
that
traffic
study.
You.
Y
G
S
W
I
believe
that
there
might
be
some
difficulties
with
trying
to
do
something
after
the
fact
after
there's
been
money
that
has
already
been
received.
If
that's
part
of
the
issue,
in
other
words,
if
someone
failed
to
come
in
during
the
time
period
that
was
scheduled,
then
came
in
late
and
was
charged
for
that
that
period.
I
know
that
treasurer
riley
and
I
used
to
address
these
issues
with
people,
for
example,
making
a
payment
and
then
wanting
to
end
up
getting
money
back,
and
that
could
not
end
up
being
done.
W
C
Pencil
chair,
councilman,
travel,
okay,
I
would
suggest
just
to
announce
during
this
session
to
our
public,
whoever
came
on
the
16th
of
february
to
come
back
and
who
paid
three
percent
to
come
back
with
his
receipt
or
her
receipt,
so
they
can
pre
get
refund
just
for
the
16th
of
february.
No
more!
No
less,
because
the
15
was
the
mistake
by
me
in
baijan
we
did
the
papers
and
we
put
the
15th
of
february.
C
We
didn't
know
it
was
a
holiday,
but
we
have
a
precedence
more
than
once
that
john
riley
came
in
front
of
the
city
council
and
asked
because
of
the
holiday
to
extend
it
one
day.
So
those
people
who
came
under
16
and
paid
they
can
come
and
see
if
they
can
recoup
the
three
percent
nothing
after
the
16
just
one
day
because
of
the
holiday
council
council.
W
Again,
I
would
have
to
research
that
issue.
However,
it
does
take
an
official
vote
of
the
council
to
waive
any
sort
of
penalty.
It's
required
by
statute.
You
could
not
end
up
just
announcing
that,
in
this
fashion,
without
potentially
causing
a
violation
of
the
law,
and
that
was
part
of
what
the
city
treasurer
and
I
had
discussed,
and
I
concurred
in
her
feeling
and
her
her
belief
and
her
opinion
with
regard
to
that
that
she
is
correct
on
the
law.
A
Thank
you
gary
one
of
the
concerns
that
I've
personally
got
is
you
know
quite
honestly,
setting
a
precedent
on
something
like
this.
I
know
it
was
announced
multiple
times
at
the
council
meetings.
I
know
we
had
on
the
website
that
we
were
open
and
I
know
at
the
very
minimal
people
could
have
called
and
asked
if
they're
open.
So
so
I
you
know,
I
I
found
it.
A
I
find
a
little
challenging
to
say
okay
on
something
like
this
and
then
have
people
come
back
again
and
again
and
again
and
say
well,
I
didn't
know
this,
that's
why
I
paid
it
late.
You
know
we
do
have
to
keep
in
mind
that
they've
been
due
for
a
multitude
of
days
not
like
they
were
doing
like
we
sent
out
the
bills
on
friday
and
they
would
do
on
that
monday.
A
So
people
have
had
ample
time
to
be
able
to
pay
for
ample
time
to
be
able
to
call
and
see
if
we
were
open-
and
I
know
it
was
announced
by
the
treasurer
multiple
times
that
we
are
open.
So
personally
you
know
I'm
not.
I
feel
bad,
but
I'm
not
honestly
in
favor,
because
we'll
set
a
precedent
to
continue
to
give
back.
You
know
money
back
people
just
based
on
different
circumstances
every
time
and
I
think
also
the
logistics
of
this.
It
might
be
a
little
complicated.
I
mean
you
know
the
the
penalties.
C
Councilman,
I
was,
I
was
a
treasurer
for
a
few
months,
not
much,
but
I
have
seen
lots
of
residents
who
came
late
and
they
were
forgiven
to
pay
the
penalty
by
the
administration
on
water
and
on
other
things.
This
is
not
the
first
time
and
I'm
just
asking
for
the
day
of
the
holiday.
The
15
was
a
holiday,
some
people
didn't
know
some
people
don't
watch
the
city
council.
C
A
O
Thank
you.
If
I
may
just
add
in
I
mean
I
feel
very
bad,
that
somebody
was
late
and
there's
a
late
fee,
but
that
is
on
the
bill
that
we
sent
out
the
first
week
in
december.
Everyone
was
where
the
date
was
on
the
bill.
As
as
councilman
abdelhoch
mentioned,
you
had
worked
and
picked
that
date,
city
hall
was
open.
It
was
well
advertised
not
just
not
just
on
the
bill,
but
we
had
in
the
newsletter
or
newspaper
excuse
me.
We
had
on
social
media,
we
had
it
on
the
website.
O
I
announced
it
several
times
and
again
I
feel
very
bad.
It
is
about
a
handful
of
folks
who,
and
I'm
going
to
tell
you-
I
looked
at
the
number
of
transactions,
but
the
thing
is
and
when
I
talked
to
the
attorney
I
called
the
attorney
immediately.
Our
office
followed
the
letter
of
the
law,
the
general
property
tax
act,
the
act
of
two:
it's
act
206.
O
we
followed
it
to
the
letter
as
far
as
making
sure
we
were
doing
the
right
thing.
I
is
a
treasurer
and
I
had
a
lot
of
calls
where
people
were
referred
and
I
was
told-
and
you
just
said,
the
administration
wade,
freeze
that
violates
the
law
and
I'm
and
I
was
sworn
by-
uphold
the
law
and
when
I
ran
for
office
I
swore
to
enforce
and
uphold
regulations
and
so
michigan
kapala
211.44
section.
Four.
Only
the
council
by
a
resolution
can
do
any
waiving
of
these,
which
means
no
one,
not
the
treasurer.
O
Not
the
administration
should
be
waiving
fees
that
it's
not.
My
call
and
I
talked
to
counselor
miaki
right
away.
There
are
several
concerns:
there's
concerns
with
potential
liabilities
and
even
a
resource
challenge
for
your
treasurer's
office
and
again,
I'm
very
sorry,
but
that
date
was
set.
We
were
open.
We
advertised
as
such
I'm
concerned
about
the
liabilities
and
resources
and
again
what
the
impact
is
on
the
city
as
well
as
the
department
and
and
believe
me,
I'm
very
compassionate
for
our
residents.
J
G
AA
G
G
It
was
pretty
cool
to
see
all
the
the
people
out
there
helping
out
in
this
situation-
and
one
other
thing
is
I
wanted
to
mention-
is,
I
hope,
not
stealing
the
mayor's
thunder
on
this,
but
this
this
saturday
at
the
eaton
senior
center
from
1
to
3
p.m.
There's
gonna
be
a
food
distribution
and
it's
it's
hosted
by
mayor
bill
bozzi.
G
It's
a
partnership
with
the
annapolis
high
school
key
club
and
it'll,
be
a
drive
up
food,
food
distribution
and
hope
to
see
everyone
there.
For
that,
it's
it's
it's
about.
We
haven't
had
one
a
little
bit
and
I
know
it's:
it's
a
need,
it's
a
very,
very
thing
that
has
to
be
met
and
congratulations
to
our
mayor
for
organizing
this
one
and
several
other
ones.
Thank
you.
A
E
Thank
you
chair
pro
tem
dave,
abdullah,
yes,
hats
off
to
our
gpw.
We
did
get
our
streets
plowed.
Thank
goodness.
It
wasn't
too
bad
of
a
snowfall
and
we
haven't
had
too
much
snow
this
year.
Thank
goodness,
but
I
think
our
dpw
did
a
great
job.
Just
echo
what
councilman
wenzel
said.
I
shoveled
the
snow
of
several
residents,
including
my
95
year
old,
father's
house.
He
he
was
not
happy
with
the
job
I
did.
He
never
is
I've
shoveled
that
snow,
probably
more
than
anybody
else,
but
yeah.
E
There
were
a
lot
of
people
out
helping
neighbors
and
getting
rid
of
the
ice,
and
now
everything
is
thawed.
Regarding
the
discussion
about
the
dearborn
heights
joining
the
dearborn
area
dispatch,
I
I
think
it
would
be
really
premature
if
we
just
voted
it
and
voted
it
up
or
down.
I
think
we
need
to
hear
from
the
experts
and
we
need
to
hear
the
data
and
the
public
does
too
before
we
make
any
decision.
A
Thank
you,
robert
constance.
I
have
a
quick
comment
in
my
seven
eight
years
on
the
city
council,
usually,
as
you
know,
a
lot
of
people
in
in
the
in
the
world.
If
there's
a
problem
they're
the
first
call
and
complain
to
everybody
about
that
problem,
but
somebody
does
good
people
rarely
will
compliment
somebody,
and
I
go
out
of
my
way-
do
that
my
wife
kind
of
gets
embarrassed
by
me
when
I
do
that
to
whether
it's
waitresses
doctors,
nurses,
anybody.
A
I
go
out
of
my
way
to
compliment
them
when
they
do
a
good
job.
Well,
in
this
case,
I
just
want
to
take
my
own
little
piece
of
it
and
and
totally
compliment
our
dpw.
I
mean
I,
I
was
getting
as
a
council
number
nothing
but
calls
that
people
say
wow
great
job.
Oh,
they
did
such
a
great
job.
So
I'd
like
to
compliment
our
dpw
for
the
great
job
they
did
in
minimizing.
A
The
complaint
calls
that
we
sometimes
get
so
that
was
beautiful
and
I'd
also
like
to
complement
the
leadership
of
our
mayor
bazzy.
You
know,
I'm
sure.
Obviously,
he
obviously
helped
in
coordinating
something
on
that
and
it
was
all
good
stuff.
So
the
fact
that
we
had
a
I
thought
it
was
pretty.
It
was
a
lot
of
snow
and
the
job
that
the
dpw
did
in
almost
any
streets.
We
drove
in
trying
to
totally
complement
them,
and
thank
you
guys
and
gals
appreciate
it.
C
C
W
I
had
to
be
unmuted.
This
is
actually
a
more
complex
area
of
law
than
one
might
think.
Several
years
ago
I
would
say,
within
the
last
five,
the
u.s
court
of
appeals
for
the
6th
circuit
upheld
the
right
of
people
to
engage
in
this
kind
of
pam
handling
along
thoroughfares,
and
actually
some
of
this
was
raised
with
us
as
an
issue
in
the
state
of
michigan,
also
because
the
michigan
attorney
general
at
the
time
had
ended
up
essentially
taking
the
position
that
we
can
uphold
the
law
that
you
can't
go
into
the
thoroughfares.
W
A
H
A
C
C
W
W
S
A
D
D
So
I
want
to
congratulate
them
on
the
entire
team
at
dpw.
You
know-
and
I
I
tell
you
I
got
several
phone
calls
of
people
celebrating
like
it
was
a
holiday
and
they
said
I
feel
so
good
that
my
street
was
plowed,
so
I'm
glad
that
a
lot
of
the
residents
were
really
ecstatic
with
that.
I
also
want
to
thank
lynn
and
the
clinton
the
woman
at
the
clerk's
office.
I
think
they
do
a
phenomenal
job.
D
I
always
kind
of
go
in
there
for
no
reason
and
just
hang
out
with
them
and
and
just
thank
them
constantly.
You
know,
I
know
lynn
and
the
women
over
there
do
a
great
job,
and
then
I
just
also
wanted
to
you
know
just
you
know
voice
my
opinion.
I
know
today
it's
very
controversial
about
the
merge,
but
in
reality
I
know
very
little
regarding
this
I
know
I
did
get
brought
up
in
2017.
D
I
know
that
there
are
a
lot
of
residents
to
have
their
concerns
for
it.
So
I
just
want
to
say
that
I
think
you
know
the
council
for
allowing
this
to
go
to
even
a
public
hearing
so
that
everybody
can
be
engaged
and
so
that
we
can
get.
You
know
the
proper
understandings
from
what
the
residents
really
want
and
what
the
professionals
feel
that
needs
to
happen,
and,
and
with
that
said,
I'm
going
to
yield
the
rest
of
my
time.
Thank
you.
So
much.
A
G
G
F
A
Z
Z
Z
I
also
I
want
to
commend
our
the
excellent
work.
Our
dpw
did
clearing
the
roads
and
also
the
residents
that
did
move
their
vehicles
out
of
the
street
to
allow
the
snowplow,
and
I
want
to
remind
our
residents.
You
know
when
we
do
declare
a
snow
emergency.
Please
remove
your
vehicles
from
the
street
to
allow
a
dpw
to
to
go
to
the
streets
a
lot
faster.
Z
They
worked
really
hard
that
day
they
were
up,
but
they
were
found
at
3
a.m.
In
the
morning
for
16
hours
and
then
the
next
morning
they
got
up
same
thing
just
to
clear
what
was
left
over
again.
They
did
an
amazing
job.
My
hands
off
the
director
saw
me
for
the
great
communication.
You
you
know
you
did
you
kept
me
up
to
speed.
I
know
we
talked
you
know
late
in
the
evening
the
night
before
even
that
day
off
just
give
me
updates.
I
appreciate
it.
Mr
selmy.
Z
Z
What
I
just
want
to
welcome
all
three
of
them
to
the
city
of
dearborn
heights,
and
I
know
a
councilman
once
over,
throw
I
saw
the
thunder,
but
he
always
does
an
amazing
job
he's
always
helping
out
with
the
food
drive.
So
don't
forget,
you
know,
as
the
councilman
wenzel
mentioned,
the
food
drive
on
on
saturday.
I
also
want
to
thank
annapolis,
high
school
key
club,
etzel
ford,
high
school
and
also
melvindale
what
they
actually
did.
Z
They
they
made
up
cards
for
the
senior
citizens
and
we
delivered
a
bunch
of
food
boxes
with
with
valentine's
cards.
You
know
for
for
our
senior
citizen
and
we'll
be
handing
those
out
also
on
on
saturday,
with
with
the
food
boxes
and
council
chair
prototype.
I
want
to
also
bring
to
your
attention,
I
know
with
a
forensic
audit.
You
know,
I
know
I've
gotten
some.
Z
Some
some
phone
calls
from
residents
asking
me
the
status
of
that
and
also
I've
had
the
discussion
with
our
city
attorney
gary
miyati,
mr
miyatki,
regarding
you
know
regarding
this
here
and
I
know
from
today
moving
forward.
You
know
I'm
still
I
want
to
be
in
for
full
compliance.
You
know
what
the
council
obviously
coming
from
that
council
and
you
know
advocated
for
this,
so
it's
up
to
the
discretion
of
that
the
new
council
to
see.
If
you
know
what
part,
if
we,
I
know,
councilman
muscat.
Z
You
know
discuss
that
with
me
as
well
moving
forward
with
the
forensic
audit,
but
I'd
like
to
make
a
recommendation
with
mr
miyaki
right
now
that
we
can
actually
go.
We
we
want
to
work
with
the
council,
and
I
want
to
make
sure
that
we're
we
have
everything
we
need
for
the
council,
so
there's
just
the
same
money
for
this
for
the
attorneys,
a
fees
that
we
can
just
go
with
mr
miyaki
to
go
through
if
we
do
go
with
the
forensic
auto
with
the
raymond
group.
E
E
C
C
A
A
F
A
Y
The
dearborn
heights
police
department,
along
with
access
community
services,
have
entered
into
a
partnership
that
is
going
to
be
explained
more
by
miss
abdullah
hijazi.
But
it's
to
deal
with
substance
use
disorder
and
getting
people
that
are
in
substance,
use,
crisises
or
mental
health
crisis
is
connected
with
the
people
that
they
need
to
seek
the
help.
That
is
most
definitely
needed
to
get
them
the
treatment
that
they
need
or
the
mental
health
care
that
they
need.
This
is
something
that
we've
worked
on
with
access
over
the
last
few
months.
Y
They
were
able
to
secure
a
grant
officer.
Hamzi
eunice
here
at
the
police
department,
has
volunteered
to
be
the
coordinator
here
at
our
police
department
for
this
project.
We're
super
excited,
I
don't
think
all
of
our
residents
see
the
day
in
and
day
out,
tragedies
that
my
office
here
at
the
police
department.
Our
officers
see
every
day
that
opioid
crisis
has
taken
on
our
community
that
mental
health
issues
has
taken
out
on
our
community,
the
families
that
deal
with
them.
So
we're
really
excited
about
working
with
access.
Y
I'm
going
to
turn
it
over
to
ms
abdul
hazaji
to
talk
talk
about
the
program
and
I
believe
she's
gonna
have
ahmed
who's,
also
on
the
line,
discuss
it
a
little
bit,
but
we're
super
excited.
We
think
this
is
a
great
program
for
our
community
to
end
some
of
these
cycles
of
of
criminal
actions
that
are
dealing
with
substance,
use
disorders
or
mental
health
and
actually
getting
people
the
help
they
need
to
get
out
of
that
cycle.
So
I'll
turn
it
over
to
you,
mrs.
AD
Thank
you
well
good
evening,
ed
good
evening,
good
evening.
I
want
to
thank
you
guys
for
giving
us
a
few
moments
of
your
time
tonight
to
discuss
this
program.
I
am
actually
a
resident
of
dearborn
heights,
so
this
is
very
a
near.
I
was
actually
enjoying
listening
to
this
session
today.
I
work
at
access.
It's
the
non-profit
organization
and
you're
located
in
dearborn
michigan
our
headquarters,
I'm
their
community
engagement
manager
and
I
oversee
their
substance,
abuse
prevention,
community
coalition.
AD
We
have
different
items
when
it
comes
to
substance,
use
and
mental
health.
We
have
a
prevention
aspect.
We
have
a
treatment
and
recovery
aspect.
This
particular
program
is
part
of
to
be
honest,
all
three
we
are
working
with
our
partners.
We've
had
a
long-standing
relationship
with
dearborn
heights,
police
and
fire
department
and
their
support
to
our
prevention
efforts
in
the
schools
and
in
our
community.
AD
This
particular
program
in
partnership
with
dearborn
heights
police,
is
to
provide
individuals
who
have
had
a
run-in
with
law
enforcement
who
are
seeking
help
who
really
don't
know
where
to
go
when
it
comes
to
receiving
help
from
mental
health
and
substance
use,
particularly
with
the
opioid
pandemic
that
is
hit
across
the
nation.
Our
community
has
severely
suffered
from
this.
Our
goal
is
to
work
with
the
police
department
to
have
individuals
who
are
seeking
help
who
would
like
to
receive
help
to
give
them
the
option
to
care.
AD
But
we
do
see
the
repercussion
of
it
in
our
community,
and
so
it
took
us
some
time
to
explain
to
you
know,
grants
and
to
writing
grants.
You
know
why
this
is
so
important
to
our
community.
As
you
guys
know,
our
communities
are
predominantly
arab.
American
and
arab
americans
are
considered
white
on
the
census,
the
united
states
census,
and
that
makes
it
very
difficult
for
us
to
express
our
work
and
the
health
disparities
in
our
communities.
AD
These
programs
are,
of
course,
for
everyone
and
anyone
that
comes
through
now
we
did
want
to
work,
particularly
with
the
police
department,
because
we
know
the
pressures
that
happens
on
our
law
enforcement.
I
don't
think
I've.
You
know
what
I
would
say
you
know.
I
could
say
that
the
police
department
doesn't
want
to
continue
to
arrest.
Individuals
who
are
you
know
either
have
a
mental
health
case
or
a
substance
use
case.
I
think
that
they
would
prefer
that
they
would
receive
some
treatment.
Now.
This
work
is
being
done
by
our
wonderful
advocate
ahmed
baludz.
AD
He
is
actually
a
former
police
officer
from
arizona
and
he
is
very
passionate
about
this
work.
He
speaks
arabic
in
english,
which
is
very
helpful.
You
know
again
from
the
access
point.
We
have
really
driven
our
efforts
for
both
the
cities,
dearborn
and
dearborn
heights,
to
receive
as
much
as
possible
when
it
comes
to
prevention,
treatment
and
recovery.
When
it
comes
to
substance,
use
and
mental
health,
I
want
to
turn
it
over
to
ahmad
who's
been
patiently
waiting
today,
I
do
want
to
say
I
really
really
really
appreciate
the
support.
AD
All
these
years
of
chief
dave
borgen
from
the
fire
department,
former
chief
lee
and
now
chief
myers,
I
have
to
say
that
it's
I've
only
known
chief
myers
for
a
little
bit
of
time,
but
he
has
been
a
wonderful
person
to
be
working
with.
I
have
always
respected
all
of
the
law
enforcement
individuals
that
I
have
worked
with.
They
have
been
nothing
but
helpful
towards
us
and
it
doesn't
help
that
actually
every
single
one
of
them
has
a
wonderful
sense
of
humor.
AD
But
if
you
know
me
or
you
don't
know
me-
you
will
get
to
know
me
that
I'm
very
dedicated
to
this
job
and
to
this
community,
and
I
can
tell
you
that
ahmad
has
to
be
a
more
dedicated
individual
than
I
am.
So
I
want
to
hand
it
off
to
ahmad
just
to
give
you
a
little
bit
of
understanding
what
we
do
when
our
advocate
goes
out
with
a
police
officer.
Q
AA
AE
AA
H
AE
AE
AE
AD
To
be,
I
did
want
to
add
that
we
do
provide
resources
as
in
if
it's
an
individual
whose
family
is
living
with
them.
Ahmed
is
a
narcan
trainer,
so
he
will
provide
them
with
the
narcan
kit
and
the
training
on
the
spot.
Now,
when
comes
to
cover
pandemic
because
of
the
safety
precautions,
we
are
fully
ppe
equipped
for
our
advocate.
There
is
a
lot
of
precautions
that
we
take
into
place.
AD
As
you
know,
they
don't
drive
in
the
same
car
as
a
police
officer
when
they
get
to
the
home.
They
stand
six
feet
away
from.
You
know
the
individual
outside.
So
ahmed
is
you
know,
taking
taking
a
toll
right
now
in
this
cold
weather,
but
we
knew
that
from
when
the
pandemic
hit
in
march
around
may,
we
were.
Our
clients
were
struggling,
that
in
the
city
of
dearborn,
and
so
we
had
to
find
a
way
for
ahmad
to
go
back
out.
AD
They
do
follow
up
with
individuals
if
they're
in
the
hospital,
and
then
he
connects
them
to
a
peer
coach,
which
is
a
person
in
recovery
or
a
therapist,
a
substance,
user,
mental
health
therapist.
When
he
gets
to
that
side,
hipaa's
involved
the
treatment
side,
but
ahmad
does
do
welfare
checks
and
follow-up
calls
with
our
clients,
and
it
doesn't
just
stop
there.
We
take
a
holistic
approach
at
our
agency
on
an
individual.
So
if
somebody
comes
in
for
a
substance,
user,
mental
health
problem
but
has
housing
or
billing-
or
you
know.
AA
AD
AD
Yes,
so
we
just
recently
did
a
video
with
the
the
dearborn
heights
police
that
will
be
coming
out.
I
want
to
say
next
week
I
don't
want
to
say
100,
because
I
don't
know
where
the
media
person
is,
but
that
should
be
coming
out
with
our
information,
but
I
can
provide
my
contact
information,
our
our
phone
number
for
the
hotline.
You
know
I
can
give
that
to
you
now,
but
I
also
provide
it
to
you
guys.
It's
313-614-0509,
that's
the
cell
phone
number.
That
is
with
ahmad
all
the
time.
AD
Y
You
chair,
yes,
police
chief,
the
video
will
be
out
on
facebook
on
the
cities
and
the
tomorrow
on
the
police
department.
They
are
not
paid
actors
in
there.
I
promise
you.
These
are
real
people
trying
to
do
a
video,
mona,
ahmed
and
hamzi
and
captain
smith.
So
it's
a
great
video.
This
is
a
great
program.
We
hope
to
get
it
pushed
out
to
everybody,
so
they
know
there's
resources
out
there
for
them
to
get
this
help.
Thank
you.
I
know
it's
thank
you,
but.
H
H
E
O
Hi,
thank
you,
council
care
program,
abdullah
and
honorable,
council,
members
and
and
mayor
and
everyone
that's
joining
us
tonight.
I
just
want
to
give
you
a
real,
quick
update
from
your
treasurer's
office.
As
you
know,
we
have
a
program
called
customer
care
and
we
do
a
follow-up
calls
to
residents
to
see
how
they're
doing
how
their
service
was
with
our
treasurer's
office,
but
the
care
part
I
want
to
stress.
We
also
believe
in
communication
and
being
knowledgeable
and
so
right
now
we're
doing
every
two
weeks.
O
There's
a
treasures,
talk,
it's
a
live
stream
that
people
can
view
and
re
the
last
one.
I
want
to
show
you
the
resources
that
we
shared
with
the
public
and
and
so
far
we've
had
over
500
views,
and
that
was
actually
done
last
night.
So
it's
always
the
monday.
Before
the
city
council
meeting
we
do
the
treasures
talk,
and
so
we
shared
resources
and
we
talked
about
if
people
need
food
or
if
they
need
help
paying
a
water
bill.
They
can
ask
us
these
questions.
O
We
actually
have
the
resources,
we
can
hand
you
the
information
right
at
our
window,
but
last
night
we
talked
about
the
importance
of
tax,
foreclosure
and
prevention.
How
to
stay
in
your
home.
We
don't
want
people
losing
their
homes,
and
so
I've
been
working
with
wayne
county
treasurer.
He
eric
sabri
does
a
wonderful
job
he's
introduced
several
new
programs.
I
mean
we
already
knew
about
the
pay-as-you-state
payment
program
and
the
reducing
or
there's
actually
based
on
your
income.
O
So
we
keep
in
mind
that
our
landlords
have
maybe
haven't
been
collecting
their
rent,
but
also
those
moratoriums,
and
so
with
that
being
said,
if
they're
struggling
there's
some
support
there
from
the
wayne
county,
treasurer's
office
and
we
all
know,
there's
increasing
financial
distress
right
now
across
all
of
our
communities.
So
I
want
to
give
you
the
phone
number
to
make.
You
can
make
an
appointment
online
by
going
to
wayne
county's
website
or
you
can
call
them
at
313.
O
313-224-5990,
if
any
resident
has
a
question,
please
feel
free
to
call
me
directly
on
my
line,
which
is
313-791-3417,
and
I
will
help
you
navigate
through
this
process,
at
least
finding
these
resources,
including
like
wayne,
metro
and
others
in
united
way
and
salvation
army,
and
there's
a
lot
of
great
resources
out
there.
So
we
don't
want
anybody
to
think
that
they
have
to
struggle.
O
So
I
wanted
to
show
that
the
the
other
thing
I
want
to
remind
people
is
that
on
monday,
which
is
march,
the
1st
this
is
the
last
day
you
can
pay
your
2020
taxes
at
your
local
treasurer's
office
so
and
we
will
request
that
it
be
put
on
wdht
as
well
as
we'll
do
social
media,
our
website,
treasurer's
website
us
and
it's
posted
at
city
hall.
Again,
it's
monday
march
1st.
You
can
come
in
and
pay
it
but
march
2nd.
O
Those
tax
rolls
roll
over
to
wayne
county
and
then
you'll
have
to
pay
with
wayne
county.
So
we
want
people
to
be
aware
of
that,
and
then
the
very
last
thing
I
have
is
remind
folks
that
we
had
to
reschedule
our
dearborn
heights
mask
distribution.
The
community
distribution
we
were
doing
so
it
is
rescheduled
for
saturday,
the
first
saturday
in
march
march,
the
6th
at
noon.
High
noon,
we're
going
to
meet
at
salvation
army
at
26700,
west
warren
avenue
and
we're
going
to
go
out
and
just
drop.
No
contact
drop
mask
they're
bad.
O
O
Emergency
manager,
lee
gavin
who's,
also
helping
coordinate
the
mask
and
I'm
going
to
forget
people,
but
we
have
a
lot
of
student
organizations,
crestwood
national
honor
society,
gmca
youth
leadership
program,
henry
ford
college
and
leslie
windlass,
the
union
there
that
are
coming
out
so
we're
we're
welcoming
more
volunteers,
though
so
we're
hoping
for
a
beautiful
day
and
get
out
20,
000
plus
mass
to
our
residents,
where
they
should
be,
and
that's
all
I
have
well.
If
you
have
any
questions,
please
don't
hesitate
to
call
me.
Thank
you.

Hello,

much
so.
First
of
all
I
wanted
to
introduce
myself.

for
updating
and
repairing
any
flaws
that
the
city's
foia
policies
and
procedures
currently
have.
As
of
recently,
the
city

engaged
in
ongoing
discussions

expressed
some
concerns.

the
next
person.
Don't
forget
to
unmute
them.
A
H
AG
AG
Dpw
did
a
fantastic
job
on
snow
removal.
In
my
years
that
I've
been
in
the
city.
I
don't
think
I've
ever
seen.
Snow
removal
happen
in
the
morning
as
quickly
as
it
was
in
fact
a
couple
of
one
of
the
mornings
it
was
even
before
I
got
up
it's
incredible.
The
comments
on
social
media
have
been
incredible.
AG
Everybody's
been
making
very,
very
positive
comments
on
it.
A
couple
of
things
I
wanted
to
to
say
besides
saying,
thank
you
very
much
to
union
employees
who
really
busted
their
humps
on
that
the
other
is.
I
know
that
the
mayor's
been
working
very
hard
on
a
lot
of
things.
One
of
the
things
I
think
that
we
talked
about
a
while
back
was
fleet
management,
and
I
know
that's
probably
one
of
the
things
on
this
plate
that
he's
probably
going
to
be
working
on.
AG
Another
thing
is
the
the
website,
because
our
city
website
is
one
of
the
things
we
put
out
a
lot
of
information,
but
right
now
or
since
the
previous
wave
was
set
up.
The
only
thing
that
was
out
there
was
the
dates
of
our
city
council
meetings.
I
think
we
can
get
a
lot
of
good
information
out
there
about
a
lot
of
things
that
are
going
on,
including
some
of
the
things
we're
trying
to
put
out
now,
but
it's
just
not
available
out
there.
I
know
it's
one
step
at
a
time
right
now.
AG
AG
We
want
to
stick
by
the
law,
but
the
tax
bill
did
say
it
was
due
february
15th
2020.,
so
the
tax
bill
did
have
an
error
on
it.
So
I
think
it's
a
good
idea
that
I
do
stand
behind.
Mr
excuse
me:
councilman
abduc
doing
that
one
day,
because
I
think
that
kind
of
makes
up
for
the
situation
that
that
we
had.
So
I
thank
you
very
much
and
I
think
the
council
and
the
mayor
and
administration
are
doing
a
great
job
working
together.
A
Dana
thank
you
very
much
and
and
and
just
I'd
like
to
add
today.
I've
always
appreciated
people
like
you,
people
like
zohair
and
and
grandma
susie,
et
cetera,
et
cetera.
I
I
love
it.
When
residents
participate,
show
up
to
the
meetings,
ask
ask
questions.
Hold
us
accountable,
fill
us
in
et
cetera,
et
cetera.
So
I
tell
you
I
speak
for
myself
and
I'm
sure
I
speak
for
all
the
other
council
members
and
mayors
administration.
I
thank
you
for
participating.
Thank
you.
A
AH
A
Z
Yeah
excuse
me
thank
you
for
that
comment.
We're
actually
that's
one
of
the
things
that
I've
been
I've
had.
You
know
my
department
had
meetings.
The
second
day
I
was
on
a
job,
and
one
of
the
things
I
talked
about
is
employee
recognition
and
wanted
to
make
sure
that
our
employees,
you
know,
have
a
good
work
environment,
but
also
have
to
be
recognized.
You
know
when
they
do
a
good
job,
and
you
know
we
talked
today
at.
Z
I
was
at
the
police
station
and
I
know
they
have
training
over
there
they're
doing
a
great
job
with
training,
all
the
police
officers
with
various
training
programs,
but
also
elizabeth,
and
I
we
sat
we're
actually
trying
to
come
up
with
something,
an
employee
recognition
program
like
a
certificate
or
some
type
that
we
can
actually
present
that
try
to
bring
a
box.
Excuse
me
a
positive
spin
at
the
council
meetings.
Z
You
know,
I
know
a
lot
there's
a
lot
of
concerns,
issues
that
brought
up
at
the
council
meetings,
but
also
what
I
want
to
do
is.
I
want
to
start
recognizing
city
employees
for
the
great
job
that
they're
doing,
and
this
is
something
I'm
I'm
I
mean
this.
I
take
that
to
heart.
I
want
to
make
sure
that
employees,
when
they
do
a
good
job,
they
are
recognized.
So
I'm
working
on
a
procedure
with
with
elizabeth
from
hr
the
hr
director,
so
please
stay
tuned
I'll
make
that
we'll
make
that
announcement
soon.
Thank.

There's
got
to
be
a
reason
for
that.
My
other
concern
is
the
911
issue
that
should
be
left
to
the
residents
to
decide
on
that
factor,
because
it
affects
us
very
strongly.
We
have
to
know
the
ins
and
outs.
We
have
to
know
the
good
and
the
bad.
We
have
to
know
all
of
the
information
in
order
to
make
that
educated
decision.
AI
I
do
love
everything
that
you
guys
are
doing.
We
must
be
doing
something
right.
I
am
taking
away
from
this
and
I'm
going
to
be
bragging,
we're
the
10th,
safest
city
in
michigan.
That
is
important,
and
why?
Let's
evaluate
that,
if
the
911
issue
that
to
me
is
a
strong
component,
if
you're
the
safest
city
people
are
going
to
want
to
live
here,
that's
a
good
thing
too.
AI
If
you
took
that
away
how's
that
going
to
affect
our
city
and
the
residents
I'm
with
vince
on
this,
I'm
in
the
south
end,
I
have
a,
I
don't
have
a
landline.
I
just
have
a
cell
phone,
I
am
by
myself.
I
am
over
age
and
whatever
I'm
high
risk.
So
this
is
a
concern
and
I
know
I'm
not
the
only
citizen,
that's
gonna
voice
that
opinion.
AI
H
X
X
Okay,
my
name
is
leslie
winless,
I'm
on
annapolis
street
in
dearborn
heights,
michigan
48125..
So
I
wanted
to
thank
chief
myers
for
the
clarification
I
do
think.
The
context
of
his
email
was
important
to
this
item
being
added
to
the
agenda
because
it
does
sound
like
he
was
pushing
more
for
it
to
start
the
conversation
versus
for
it
to
be
a
vote
tonight
with.
X
That
being
said,
I
also
wanted
to
address
some
of
the
comments
I
think
that
was
made
by
mr
miyaki
about
the
dearborn
city,
not
wanting
to
wait.
I
wanted
to
let
you
guys
know
that
I
attended
the
study
session
as
well
as
their
meeting
tonight,
and
they
haven't
approved
it
on
their
end
because
they
still
have
outstanding
questions.
So
it's
not
like
they've,
already
approved
it
and
they're
waiting
on
us
they're
still
waiting
for
their
outstanding
questions
to
be
answered,
and
they
have
not.
X
X
So
I'm
wondering
if
it's
worth
doing
them
both
at
the
same
time,
so
we
can
all
be
on
the
same
page
and
then
the
other
thing
I
wanted
to
bring
up
is
something
I've
brought
up
multiple
times,
but
there
is
a
spotlight
feature
on
the
zoom
app
where
you
guys
do
not
have
to
bounce
all
around
the
screen
and
continuously
lose
people.
It's
very
easy.
I
would
be
willing
to
show
whoever
runs
the
zoom
meetings
in
the
background.
How
to
do
that.
X
I
had
started
a
list,
but
at
this
point
it's
a
book
and
there
is
too
many
people
to
thank
for
the
whole
city,
just
the
school
district,
everybody
at
city
hall,
everybody
on
facebook,
all
everybody
on
the
city,
facebook,
on
the
culture,
commission,
facebook,
there's
been
so
much
support
for
black
history
month.
That
is
overwhelming.
Like
I,
the
list
is
like
three
pages.
I
can't
even
read
everybody's
name
mariana
just
got
here
and
she
hit
the
ground
running
and
started
jumping
in
to
do
stuff
as
well.
So
it's
just
so
many
people.
