A
Cartman
started:
our
meetings
got
a
couple
of
three
groups
that
we
want
to
recognize
for
some
really
outstanding
bangs
in
the
first
group,
I'd
like
to
have
come
up
like
right
now
is
our
group
from
Grandview
University.
Could
you
guys
come
on
up
as
they
come
up?
I've
got
to
tell
you.
They
have
done
some
things
that
are
unbelievable
over
the
last
eight
years
and,
mr.
president,
would
you
like
to
step
up
and
kind
of
make
a
couple
of
remarks
and
then
I've
got
a
kind
of
a
little
special
certificate.
B
A
B
B
So
this
is
the
eighth
year
in
a
row
eighth
consecutive
year
that
that
grand
views
wrestling
team
has
won
the
NAIA
national
championship
and
after
eight
times
it
seems
sort
of
almost
automatic,
but
I
have
to
tell
you
each
year
it's
a
different
group
of
wrestlers
that
goes
to
that
national
tournament.
In
each
year
they
start
from
scratch.
There
is
nothing
there
is
nobody
that
just
sort
of
steps
aside
and
lets
this
team
win.
So,
even
though
we're
getting
used
to
coming
here
and
Thank
You
mr.
B
mayor
for
bringing
us
year
after
year,
I
need
to
I
need
to
point
out
that
these
gentlemen
behind
me
and
their
teammates,
but
in
an
awful
lot
of
work
and
I'd
like
to
just
very
briefly
turn
this
over
to
our
coach.
Nick
Mitchell
really
led
this
effort
over
the
entire
time
that
we've
had
the
program.
Eleven
seasons,
eight
national
championships,
eight
duels
national
championships,
so
coach
Mitchell
has
built
one
heck
of
a
one
heck
of
a
program
and
a
dynasty
in
wrestling.
So
there
is
another
educational,
higher
educational
institution
in
town,
their
colors
are
blue.
C
C
We
had
a
relson
banquet
this
past
weekend,
and
one
thing
we
talked
about
is
just
not
taking
this
for
granted.
You
know
just
because
you
win
eight
years
in
a
row.
Sometimes
people
think
it
becomes
automatic.
They
think
it's
easy.
Sometimes
it
looks
easy
at
the
national
tournament,
but
the
work
that
these
guys
put
in
is
definitely
not
easy
and
it
really
is
an
honor
for
us
just
to
not
only
represent
Grandview,
but
we
really
enjoy
representing
des
moines.
C
And
hopefully
that
means
that
in
the
in
the
process
of
finding
out
how
good
they
can
be
each
year,
they
get
an
opportunity
to
make
a
difference
at
Grand
View
here
in
des
moines,
the
state
of
Iowa
and
then
some
of
these
guys
that
are
from
out
of
state
go
back
and
make
a
difference
in
their
communities
and
the
states
that
they
come
from.
So
it
is
kind
of
a
bigger
picture
thing
overall.
So
again,
thank
you,
Thank
You,
mr.
mayor
and
everybody
else.
The
council
I
really
appreciate
it.
A
And
while
he's
not
standing
up
here
with
us,
I
want
to
thank
Rob
Baron,
he
has
helped
the
president
and
me
keep
our
agenda
straight.
So
we
know
what
we're
doing
so
Rob.
Thank
you
for
the
work
that
you
have
done.
He
spent
a
little
time
working
for
a
representative
that
spent
a
lot
of
time
in
Washington
and
now
he's
doing
a
lot
of
good
stuff
on
the
ground
here
in
Des
Moines.
So
thank
you
for
what
you're
doing
to
Rob
any
rate.
Let
me
read
something
that
I
think
is
really
special.
A
Coach
I
did
unbelievable
any
rate.
The
victory
makes
the
Vikings
the
second
program
in
collegiate
wrestling
history
to
win
eight
straight
team
titles,
joining
NCAA
Division,
one
University
of
Iowa's
nine
straight
from
1978
to
1986.
Now,
I
want
to
say
that
we
expect
and
hope
that
you
and
this
team
are
back
here
again
next
year.
So
we
are
looking
forward
all.
D

and

their
8th

You

us
to
be

My

with
the
Boys

of
central
Iowa,
and
we
serve
over
2,000,
kids
and
teens
here
in
the
Des
Moines
area
among
five
different
club
sites.
So
what
we
do
is
provide
a
safe,
supportive
place
for
kids
to
be
any
time
they're,
not
in
school.
That
means
every
day
after
school.
E
A
Now

of
our

2019
as
National

and
Girls

in
Des

Iowa,
and
encourage
all
of
our
citizens
to
join
in
recognizing
and
commending
Boys
and
Girls
Clubs
of
central
Iowa,
providing
the
young
people
of
our
community
with
comprehensive
and
effective
youth
development
services.
Let's
give
him
a
great
big
hand.
A
F
You
Thank
You
mayor
and
thank
you
everybody
for
an
extremely
warm
welcome
here
in
Des
Moines.
So,
as
mayor
just
said,
we
are
a
group
of
international
visitors.
We
came
here
based
on
a
program
which
is
a
organized
led
by
the
u.s.
Department
of
State
and
paid
gracefully
by
the
US
taxpayers.
So
thank
you
all
for
your
dollar
for
your
contribution
to
for
having
us
here,
traveling
across
the
United
States
for
three
weeks.
We
are
all
coming
from
different
countries
from
various
continents.
We
were
in
fact
just
half
of
the
entire
group.
F
The
other
half
is
currently
in
Michigan.
We
will
be
joining
the
rest
of
the
group
tomorrow
in
Boston
to
let's
say
finalize
our
program
and
then
next
Saturday
we're
heading
back
home.
Before
we
came
to
Des
Moines,
we
spent
a
couple
of
days
in
Washington
DC,
after
which
we
had
it
to
Texas,
and
we
spent
a
week
there
in
San,
Antonio
and
Austin.
F
So
we,
the
idea,
was
for
us
to
learn
about
the
government
and
the
culture
of
the
United
States
from
various
perspectives,
and
I
have
to
say
that
really
so
far,
the
welcome
in
des
moines
has
definitely
been
the
best.
This
is
the
first
place
where
we
have
actually
met
the
mayor.
We
also
met
your
chief
at
the
des
moines
Department
police
department,
so
we
have
really
had.
We
also
had
the
meeting
with
the
members
of
the
board
of
supervisors
of
the
Polk
County.
G
E
A
During
this
event,
with
all
the
teams
that
were
out
there,
we
picked
up
over
75,000
pounds
of
trash
in
and
around
the
city
along
the
riverbanks
on
the
trails
everywhere,
and
so
we
want
to
thank
all
of
our
participants
and
partners
for
their
participation
and
and
hopefully
we're
going
to
do
even
more
and
do
even
better,
as
we
have
more
and
more
participation
in
enthusiastic
teams
from
different
organizations
in
and
around
the
City
of
Des
Moines
Ben.
Where
are
you
what's
the
day
again.
G
A
A
A
I
A
A
This
is
approving
item
3,
which
is
the
annual
agency
plan
for
the
vasuki
fiscal
year,
beginning
July,
1st
2019,
to
include
the
2019
capital
improvement,
grant
the
public
housing
administered
on
C
policy
in
the
family
self-sufficiency
action
plan
and
the
section
8
Housing
Choice
Voucher
administrative
plan
board
communication
was
19
147
anybody
the
audience
like
to
make
any
comments
on
this
public
housing
agency
plan
any
of
our
board
members.
Any
comments
thought
I'd
move
it
all
rights
been
moved.
Ask
everybody
do
to
vote.
D
A
A
You
know
throwing
their
own
safety
kind
of
aside
as
they,
you
know,
jump
up
on
a
burning
car
and
not
the
windows
out
to
get
the
occupants
in
it.
That's
sitting
on
its
side
and
they
do
everything
that
they
can.
You
know
there
was
a
fire
just
recently,
and
our
people
in
blue
were
they're
not
only
trying
to
do
what
they
could
outside,
but
the
the
mother
was
inside
had
three
children
and
she
actually
dropped
them
out
the
window
and
the
Des
Moines
police
PD
were
there
to
catch
them.
A
A
couple
days
later,
working
with
a
Federal
Bureau
of
Investigation.
They
arrested
13
people
that
were
out
doing
some
things
that
the
FBI
and
the
Moines
police
department
working
together
and
decided
was
activity
that
could
not
continue
any
longer
and
arrested
people
in
in
a
one
of
the
biggest
drug
gang
busts
that
we've
seen
so
every
single
day.
A
They're
out
there
and
I
think
that
all
of
us
ought
to
thank
our
des
moines
police
department
for
all
the
work
that
they
have
done
and
all
the
work
that
they
continue
to
do
again
day
and
in
day
out
whether
they're
walking
a
beat
on
the
street
or
were
there
in
a
police,
car
and
they're
meeting
the
needs
and
protecting
the
interest
of
our
citizens
and
visitors.
Here
in
the
City
of
Des,
Moines
and
I.
Want
you
to
know
that
I?
A
All
of
us
up
here,
sitting
up
here,
have
worked
with
these
individuals
day
in
and
day
out,
and
they
are
out
there
serving
the
needs
of
our
citizens
and
doing
absolutely
everything
they
can
to
protect
their
their
interest
too,
so
that
they
can
safely
do
it,
doesn't
matter
their
age,
their
gender,
the
color
of
their
skin,
their
dress,
their
religion.
We
want
everybody
in
the
city
of
Des
Moines
to
feel
safe
and
that's
our
team
that
helps
us
to
do
it
all
day.
A
J
K
Heavenly
Father,

this
beautiful
day

councilmember,
great
Thank,.
M
You
mr.
mayor
I
think
the
reason
I
pulled
this
off
is
because
there
is
another
University
here
in
Des
Moines
it's
over
on
the
west
side,
and
it
is
the
blue
University.

anybody.

of
attention
to
Des
Moines.

council
communication,
number
19
151,
mr.
gray,
Thank.
M
You,
mr.
mayor
and
I'll
be
brief.
The
just
want
to
let
everybody
know
thank
my
fellow
council
members
for
all
the
work
that
they've
done
on
this,
but
we
got
seven
projects
on
the
resurfacing.
That's
going
to
take
place,
I
appreciate
all
your
leftovers
and
castoffs
will
make
it
work
over
in
Ward.
One
I
sure
appreciate
you
guys
help
on
beat
the
near
West
Side
sewer
separation.
We
are
working
in
conjunction
with
Drake
to
do
a
beautification
on
this.
M
This
couldn't
be
in
a
better
time,
and
this
is
gonna
be,
and
hopefully
we
can
get
these
sewer
separation
project
sunsetted
somewhere
down
the
road
on
c
Maquoketa
drive.
This
couldn't
come
at
a
better
time
since
we
had
a
partial
collapse
down
there
over
the
weekend.
So
we've
been
working
on
that
in
the
seven
and
a
half
million
dollars,
that's
going
to
do
it
go
a
long
way
to
getting
us
out
of
the
swamp
down
there.
Finally,
on
D
didn't
lay
my
concerns
about
the
intersection
just
being
partially
done.
M
I
wanted
to
make
sure
that
we
left
the
door
open
because,
as
I've
stated
many
years
ago
and
and
a
couple
months
ago,
this
is
the
worst
design
intersection
in
the
entire
city
of
Des
Moines
and
unfortunately,
it's
a
gateway
from
the
West
coming
into
our
fine
city.
So
I.
If
there
are
some
changes
that
have
to
be
made
like
a
turning
lane
here
and
there
I'm
more
able
to
appreciate
the
opportunity
that
we
could
do
a
change
order
on
it.
I'm
still
talking
with
the
engineering
on
that.
M
M
One
thing
I'd
like
to
remind
the
city
manager
I'd
like
to
make
sure
that
when
we
start
doing
this
work,
we
put
a
sign
out
to
let
everybody
know.
This
is
the
result
of
your
1
cent
sales
tax.
We're
gonna
show
the
people
that
we
mean
what
we
say
and
we're
gonna
put
the
money
to
work
where
it's
needed
the
most.
So
if
we
could
make
sure
we
keep
that
in
mind
as
we
go
forward.
I
A
All
right
this
takes
us
to
item

K
D
I'm,
not
I'm,
not
gonna,
move
and
I
plan
on
voting
no
and
wanted
to
just
explain
that.
Explain
that
both
very
briefly
so
folks
have
the
context.
You
know
one
of
the
things
I
got.
Questions
on
and
I'm
still
working
to
understand
is
what
our
long-term
vision
for
for
hotels
in
Des
Moines
is
and
how
long
we
need
to
continue
to
provide
incentives
for
hotels
and
I've
got
questions
of
that.
D
It's
particularly
interesting
and
caught
my
attention
in
part
because
it's
the
same
type
of
hotel,
it's
an
extended-stay
hotel
that
is
near
approximately
a
block
away
from
another
extended-stay
hotel
built
by
the
same
developer
and
that
previous
one
was
just
built
a
couple
of
years
ago
and
he
they
they
did
not
have
any
incentives
in
building
that
hotel.
So
it
made
me
wonder
well
why
why
would
we
need
incentives
for
this
one
and
when
I
had
an
opportunity
to
meet
with
the
developer?
D
You
know
I
voted
for
other
hotel
projects
in
downtown
part
of
it
I.
You
know,
I
supported
the
Midland,
which
it
takes
a
historic
building
that
had
low
occupancy
and
brings
life
back
to
that
building.
It
supported
the
Fairfield
Inn,
which
takes
a
building
that
had
been
a
non-profit
and
converts
it
and
adds
a
complementary
piece
to
our
entire
convention.
Complex
and
I've
supported
the
home
two
Suites
on
University
right
across
from
break.
If
there
are
projects
that
are
unique
and
add
value
and.
D
L
Although
I'd
say
for
seven
or
eight
years,
I've
been
trying
to
figure
out
what
we
should
be
doing
about
hotels,
long
term
as
well
I,
the
staff
helped
me
so
I
brought
one
for
everybody,
but
it's
it's
a
it's
it's
a
little
summary
and
if
anybody
else
really
wants
one
I,
don't
think
that
we've
probably
capped
out
our
demand,
and
in
this
case
you
know
who
I
would
rely
on
before
anybody
else.
The
guy
that
owns
the
extended
stay
hotel
across
the
street.
L
If
he
doesn't
think
the
demand
has
capped
out,
he
wouldn't
be
building
one
across
the
street
and
spending
millions
of
his
own
money
to
get
that
done.
The
the
the
issue
for
hotels,
downtown
and
around
the
community
is
what
kind
of
incentives
should
we
get
and
I've
kind
of
had
a
multi-week
back
and
forth
with
our
economic
development
staff
and
first
off
tried
to
get
a
handle
on.
What's
been
the
recent
history
for
those
I
put
it
in
graph
form
and
tried
to
share
with
you
what
what's
been
happening?
L
If
they
build
in
commercial,
so
there's
additional
assets
for
the
neighborhood's
I
would
I
would
raise
the
incentive
sport
because
I
think
it's
better
for
our
community
and
in
this
case
this
project
does
those
two
really
expensive
ones
which
are
to
put
parking
in
it
and
to
put
commercial
in
there.
So
it
benefits
the
East
Village
and
the
patrons
and
the
residents
there
and
so
on
this
two
months
ago,
I
was
probably
a
no
vote.
Big
wrestling
night
Lincoln
is
here.
We
just
recognize.
L
Grandview
I
looked
at
his
plans,
the
extra
investment
that
he
was
making
the
changes
that
he
had
to
make
that
drove
higher
costs,
because
you
know
he
didn't
get
his
height
that
he
first
requested.
I
applaud
the
the
Zoning
Board
of
adjustment
for
their
decision,
but
it
it
it
drives
a
bigger
gap
in
the
project,
and
so
what
I
would
say
as
you
look
at
this
is:
we've
worked
our
way
down
to
ten
years
of
eighty
percent.
L
If
you
go
back
and
you
look
at
even
that
Iowa
Events
Center
hotel,
it
was
a
hundred
percent
for
twenty
years,
plus
an
additional
14
million
plus
additional
money.
On
top
of
that,
that
was
at
risk
and
so
I
I
would
say
that
we've
gradually
reduced
where
we're
at,
and
we
need
to
do
it
further
and
only
have
a
few
limited
exceptions
for
some
cap
on
on
on
the
on
the
incentive
that
we
would
give
through
TIF.
So
it
would
be
like
here's
what
we're
gonna
do.
L
If
you
embed
parking,
you
could
get
a
little
bit
more.
If
you
embedded
commercial
that
benefited
the
neighborhood,
you
could
do
a
little
bit
more
if
it
was
a
historic
rehab.
Maybe
you
could
get
a
little
bit
more,
but
other
than
that
we
have
a
firm
cap
and
that's
what
I?
That's
what
I'd
like
to
see?
I
think
this
can
be
a
really
really
great
project.
L
I
think
our
business
community,
especially
is,
is
really
booming
downtown
and
they,
like
the
extended-stay
nature
of
a
hotel,
offering
it
doesn't
compete
with
the
other
projects
that
are
in
the
pipeline,
so
so
I
feel
good
about
it.
I
do
have
two
other
things
that
I'd
like
to
say:
I
mentioned
the
hotel
development,
the
the
other
things
that
I've
learned
through
this,
and
there
is
some
notes
in
there
in
the
blue
letter
and
that
has
to
do
with
construction
hours.
You
know
in
downtown.
We
say
that
we
have
to
limit
construction
hours.
L
I
think
everybody
has
to
be
done
working
by
11:00
that
that
rule
I
think
was
written
before
I
got
on
the
council
and
before
90%
of
the
people
that
live
downtown.
Are
there
now
and
I.
Just
don't
think
that
that's
a
reasonable
expectation
that
somebody
would
invest
big
in
downtown
and
might
have
to
put
up
with
construction
noise
across
the
street
or
on
the
same
block
until
11
o'clock
at
night,
and
so
the
staff
has
worked
out
an
agreement
on
this
project
because
we
have
an
incentive
in
it.
L
But
I'd
like
to
refer
that
issue
to
the
manager's
office
to
tighten
that
up-
and
you
know
it
affects
both
sides
of
downtown
I,
think
and
and
I'd
like
to
see
that
the
other
thing
is
we've
debated
overtime
and
the
legislators
that
you
know
slapped
our
hands
a
couple
of
times
over.
How
do
we
ensure
that
these
projects
are
getting
done
with
high
quality
contractors,
subcontractors
and
workers
themselves
and
we've
gone
at
it
a
number
of
different
times?
L
One
of
the
things
that
strikes
me
is
that
when
we
have
city
money
in
it,
our
taxpayers
money
in
it,
we
ought
to
ensure
that
the
people
that
are
working
on
the
job
site
are
actually
employees
of
the
contractors
they're
working
for
they
shouldn't
be
1099
or
independent
contractors.
And
you
know,
if
you'll,
without
going
into
a
lot
of
detail.
My
my
day
job
at
the
Better
Business
Bureau.
We
see
a
lot
of
problems
and
home
improvement
and
other
where
the
contractor
wants
to
you
know
say:
well,
that's
not
my
fault.
L
I
had
a
contractor
that
did
that
work
and
the
owner
and
the
neighbors
had
no
idea
that,
and
sometimes
the
contractor
didn't
know
that
he
was
liable
for
the
work
he
was
doing.
Plus
it
allow
contractors
to
skirt,
you
know,
making
sure
that
they
have
health
care,
making
sure
that
they're
paying
their
fair
share
on
taxes
and
all
the
other
employment
laws.
L
So
to
me
long
term
I'd
like
to
ensure
that
any
project
that
gets
economic
development
assistance,
we
have
a
policy
in
place
that
requires
the
workers
at
that
site
with
those
dollars
to
be
employees
of
the
people.
They're
working
for
and
I
would
guess.
Most
people
that
we
represent
would
be
surprised
that
that's
not
our
rule
now
so
I'd
like
to
make
sure,
as
it
comes
back
for
final
development
agreement,
there's
some
language
in
the
blue
letter
about
this,
but
I'd
like
to
see
it
a
lot
more
refined,
there's.
L
Obviously,
some
programs
out
there
that
are
enormous
ly
burdensome
on
our
staff
to
monitor.
Maybe
there's
a
way
we
can
design
this,
where
it
limits
the
burden
on
both
the
the
developer
and
the
city.
But
those
are
three
things
that
I
learned
that
I
think
we
can
improve
both
on
this
project
and
future
projects
as
we
as
we
look
at
hotel
development
downtown.
K
K
Right,
you
know
I
want
to
applaud
Aaron
and
Matt
for
getting
me
where,
where
I
need
to
be
with
this
and
in
this
project
and
showing
me,
this
is
the
best
use
for
that
type
of
spot
to
to
do
the
best
for
our
city,
and
you
are
going
into
competition
with
your
own
hotel
and
if,
if
you
think
that
you're
gonna
invest
your
dollars
like
you
are,
then
then
Who
am
I.
Just
say
that
you
know
the
that's
the
wrong
thing
to
do
so.
K
I
applaud
your
consistently
not
giving
up
and
pushing
in
and
getting
it
to
where
it
needs
to
be
I'm
glad
that
we
corrected
the
the
roll
call,
because
we
had
discussion
that
wouldn't
start
until
September
and
then
on
the
on
the
roll
call.
It
was
different
so
that
I
see
that
that's
been
corrected,
and
I
too
would
like
to
part
of
my
motion.
I,
believe
Scott
I
would
like
for
you
to
at
least
with
this
project
and
going
forward
with
any
type
of
economic
incentive.
K
I
believe
that
80%
of
anyone
working
on
the
project
is
being
paid
by
w2
subcontractors.
Things
like
that
and
I
think.
That's
what
the
reference
is
for
federal
and
state
laws
that
you
have
in
the
in
the
blue
letter
and
I
appreciate
staff
working
on
that
and
I
know.
There
has
to
be
a
little
bit
more
work
that
we're
gonna
need
to
do
of
just
gonna
who's,
mom
who's,
going
to
monitor
it.
K
How
we're
going
to
do
that,
but
I'm
sure
when
it
comes
back
to
this
project
and
I
know
you
that
your
contractor
is
met
with
with
folks
around
town
and
and
is
it
agreeable
upon
that?
And
you
are
and
I
appreciate
that,
and
you
know
we're
I'd
like
to
see
this
go
forward
with
all
projects
so
that'll
be
part
of
the
motion
and
I
will
move
item
29.
D
M
But
Des
Moines
hosted
the
NCAA
wrestling
tournaments
and
my
family
does
a
lot
with
the
wrestling
community
and
we
talked
to
a
lot
of
the
wrestlers
and
and
and
where
they
were
staying.
People
were
staying
as
far
away
as
DeSoto
to
go.
Watch
NCAA
wrestling,
that's
quite
a
stent
away
from
here,
and
so
all
the
the
hotel-motel
all
the
tax
money,
all
of
the
entertainment
money
went
away.
So
I
don't
think
we're
at
a
point
where
I'm
too
concerned
about
oversaturation
of
market
rooms.
M
A
Let
me
say
in
kind
of
conclusion
and
I
want
to
thank
Lincoln
for
being
down
here
and
continuing
to
have
some
confidence
in
Des
Moines
Iowa.
We
we
have
some
confidence
as
well
and
and
I
think
we're
showing
you
some
confidence
here.
I,
don't
disagree
with
Josh
that
maybe
at
some
moment
here
soon
we
ought
to
look
at
the
overall
incentive
programs
this.
A
These
incentives
are
available
and
have
been
available
and
if
we're
going
to
change
them,
we
ought
to
do
it
without
a
bunch
of
things
sitting
on
the
table
in
front
of
us
and
look
at
good
policy
moving
forward.
I
just
is
in
a
side,
I
met
Lincoln
many
years
ago
with
an
old
coach
that
he
used
to
know
mr.
Gable
and
Dan
and
I
have
known
each
other
a
little
while
and
and
not
long
ago.
A
A
Those
of
you
are
looking
item:
thirty
as
a
blighted
property
rehabilitation,
we're
trying
to
look
at
blighted
properties
around
this
city
and
look
at
opportunities
to
rehab
them
and
bring
them
back
and
do
what
we
can
to
save
some
of
those
that
are
in
a
condition
that
are
people
willing
to
make
the
investment
to
do
it
and
I
noted
that
on
item
33,
those
are
abatements.
Here's
seven
properties
that
are
really
in
dire
straits
and
something
needs
to
happen,
and
we've
showed
them
to
be
public
nuisances
and
we're
moving
forward
to
do
that.
A
In
the
past,
we've
been
able
to
deal
with
about
what
do
we
say:
Council
10,
to
15
of
these
a
year
and
now
we're
going
to
start
dealing
with
them
much
more
expeditiously
and
moving
it
forward.
So
those
of
you
who
are
watching
this
keep
tuned
we're
going
to
keep
doing
what
we
said
we
were
going
to
do
and
we're
going
to
start
moving
this
forward
and.
M
K
N
K
A
N
Wouldn't
say
that
was
one
of
the
questions
I
asked.
If
we
get
em
witching
on
the
24th
is
like
an
update
like
whether
it
be
quarterly
monthly.
So
because
I
know
some
of
these
you're.
We
do
this
now,
but
it
could
take
how
long
so
that
we
can
kind
of
get
a
status
of
what's
really
coming
down.
Yep
and
win
okay.
A
All
right
that
completes
our
consent
agenda
and
since
we're
22
minutes
past
the
hour,
we
need
to
move
straight
to
the
hearings.
Our
first
hearing
item
is
item
42
item
42
is
on
the
intent
to
commence
a
public
improvement
project
to
construct
the
East
Douglas
Avenue,
widening
East,
42nd,
Street,
T's
56th
Street
project
and
to
authorize
acquisition
of
the
necessary
property
interests,
including
agricultural
land.
For
the
project
council
communication
number
19
161,
it
is
a
hearing.
We
will
open
it.
Is
there
anyone
here
that
would
like
to
speak
to
this
item.
O
A
I
A

project.
A
is
the
first
consideration
of
the
ordinance
above
and
here
again
this
is
something
that
we
need
to
do
and
move
forward
on.
Our
infrastructure
improvements
will
open
the
hearing
and
see
if
there's
anyone
here
to
speak
to
this
item,

A
P
Mayor

for
considering

I'm
fat
long
with
SVP
a
architects
from
1466
28th

in
West
Des

I
got
the
chance
to
work
with
Lance
on
his
first
project
that
we
did
almost
10
years
ago
and
the
addition
he
asked
me
to
be
here
to
represent
him.
If
there's
any
questions.
P
Basically,
what
he's
asking
is
to
take
the
fence
that
he
had
behind
his
building
before
and
moving
it
back
for
a
6,000
square
foot
addition,
because
his
business
is
thriving
and
prospering,
so
he's
basically
taking
the
same
exact
fence
and
slide
back
farther
on
the
property.
So
any
questions
I'm
normally
dad.
Yes,
okay,.

Item

regarding

anybody.
M
One
comment
to
make
a
vote
for
this
and
get
you
change,
get
my
15
cents
of
it,
but
one
thing
I'd
like
to
find
out
on
this:
there's
only
six
thousand
dollars
difference
between
the
low
bid
and
the
next
bid.
The
low
bids
from
Hammond
Indiana
and
a
local
group
was
in
second,
and
so
we've
had
this
discussion
about
1099
some
of
the
workers.
Do
we
have
any
assurance
that
we
we
have
that
kind
of
capability,
or
are
we
just
trusting
them
to
get
it
done
with
salaried
workers
that
are
employed
by
them?
M
Q
Mayor
members
of
council,
Steve,
neighbor
city
engineering,
so
to
answer
your
question:
we
you
know
we
don't
we
don't
check
payroll,
have
contractors
provide
certified
payroll
and
check
who's,
paying
the
workers
in
terms
of
the
the
low
bidder
you
know
a
closed
bid
is,
is
considered
a
really
a
good
bit
for
a
contractor
and
and
to
be
honest,
the
the
second-place
bidder,
while
they
put
on
their
title
west
des
moines.
If
you
look
up
their
parent
company
they're,
actually
from
st.
Q
M
N
K
J
I
M
I
A
K
Mayor
just
noting
a
couple
comments,
if
you'd
like
me
to
sure
so.
First
of
all,
this
is
a
very
important
part
of
our
trail
system,
and
this
will
connect.
If
people
don't
know
it
will
connect
from
where
the
baseball
and
soccer
field
is
to
Eastern
Lake,
which
is
now
full
and
and
open,
so
you'll
be
able
to
get
the
folks
at
Eastern.
Lake
will
be
able
to
get
downtown
and
all
the
way,
basically
to
the
trestle
bridge
by
it
by
this
connectivity.
K
Secondly,
our
parts
department,
Ben
page
and
his
staff
securing
the
funds
they
had
over
90.
What
was
at
91%
of
the
funds
is
is
from
from
not
coming
out
of
our
pocket
or
taxpayer
dollars.
So
well,
is
it
1.6
million
yeah
coming
from
funds
that
that
we
didn't?
We
only
had
to
put
up
a
hundred
and
sixty-five
thousand
dollars.
I
believe
correct
me
if
I'm
wrong,
then,
but
I'm
pretty
sure,
that's
what
it
is
so
remarkable
work
of
building
a
trail
that
link
and
doing
the
connectivity
that
we're
gonna
have
and
it's
it's
outstanding.
K
Secondly,
mr.
Voss
is
in
the
audience-
and
you
know,
I
appreciate
all
of
his
work.
Carl
and
I
don't
always
agree
upon
everything.
He'll
tell
ya,
we
pride
but
Ed's
more
than
anyone,
but
you
know
what
I
always
listen
to
him.
He
always
listens
to
me
and
we
always
whether
we
agree
to
disagree
sometimes
or
you
know
what
maybe
I'll
change
his
mind.
He'll
change
my
mind
and
so
I
appreciate
the
knowledge
that
he's
given
to
me
about
biking
in
those
types
of
things
and
I.
K
Think
it's
I
think
it's
wonderful
that
the
Advocate
that
you've
been
for
the
biking
community
that
we're
able
to
to
name
this
trail
in
your
honor.
That
will
be
here
forever
and
that
will
start
basically
on
Scott
Street,
all
the
way
to
Eastern
Lake.
So
thank
you
for
what
you
your
contributions
to
the
to
the
city
and
what
you've
done
so
I
appreciate
that
anyone
else
I
want.
L
L
Colonel
is
one
of
the
amazing
citizens
we
have
and
I
look
around
at
some
of
the
things
that
have
happened.
They
you
know
a
big
long
list
of
people
that
contributed
or
volunteered
for
stuff.
But
when
you
get
close
to
those
projects,
you
know
that
it
wouldn't
have
happened
without
Carl
and
so
I
think
I
think
this
is
outstanding.
Joe
good
job
on
the
honor
for
Carl

K
J
Q
Ramon
members
of
council,
Steve,
neighbor
city
engineering,
so
in
terms
of
our
time
frame
we
you're
correct.
We
are,
we
are
going
back
and
looking
at
different
alternatives,
but
we
are
also
which
would
take
considerable
time,
in
other
words,
that
probably
be
delaying
the
project
a
good
somewhere
between
six
months
and
a
year
to
be
honest,
but
we're
working
with
Public
Works
staff
to
figure
out
if
there
are
some
some
interim
measures
to
keep
the
pump
station
functioning.
But
but
we
think
this
is
the
best
route
to
go
with
as
we
delve
into
it
more.
Q
Know
we're
absolutely
yeah
we're
fine
safety,
wise
it
just
it
just
may
be.
There
could
be
some
interim
things
to
kind
of
keep
the
you
know
the
existing
pump
station
afloat
and
that
could
be
things
as
maybe
a
backup
pump
that
could
be
used
and
may
be
used
in
a
newer
station
or
somewhere
else
as
well.
So,
okay,
yep
I.
A
N
A
41
is
regarding
wireless
telecommunications
facilities.
A
is
the
first
consideration
in
the
ordinance
amending
chapter
102
of
the
Municipal
Code
regarding
small
wireless
facility
permits.
B
is
the
final
consideration
of
the
ordinance
above.
The
waivers
requested
by
the
city
manager
requires
six
votes
and
C
is
the
approval
of
wireless
telecommunications
facility
policy.
A
A
L
A
Right
that
takes
us
to
one
additional
items,
an
extra
item
and
it
was
added
after
5:00
p.m.
on
Tuesday
preceding
council
meeting
and
have
been
included
on
the
amend
attended
by
the
city
clerk
with
a
sponsorship
of
the
mayor
or
a
council
member
who
shall
deem
the
item
sufficient
urgency
to
warrant
immediate
council
action.
Said
statement
of
urgency
from
the
city
manager,
and/or
appropriate
department
director
shall
be
placed
on
file
with
the
city
clerk.
K
Thank
You

mayor

Deek
red
she
must
have
just
got
a
phone
call
that
she
had
came
down.
One
of
the
nicest
ladies,
that
I
probably
have
talked
talked
to
in
a
very
long
time.
I
mean
she
she's
got
a
beautiful
house
on
Scott
Street
and
we've
got
a
dilapidated
I,
don't
know
if
you
want
to
call
it
an
alley,
I'm
not
really
sure
what
it
is,
but
thank
you
to
Scott
and
your
team
and
Phil
Waggaman
and
the
staffer
for
putting
this
together
so
quickly,
she's
willing
to
clean
it
up,
pave
it.
K
I
I
A
All
right
that
brings
us
to
the
end
of
our
agenda.
I
want
to
thank
everybody
for
coming
and
again
to
our
public
safety
people,
police
fire.
Thank
you
for
the
work
you
do
every
day
and
we'll
continue
all
of
our
efforts
to
try
to
support
your
efforts
and
and
keep
up
the
great
work
and
that
to
the
rest
of
our
staff
as
well.
We
appreciate
the
work
that
you've
done
as
Joe
just
pointed
out,
quick
turnarounds
on
some
quick
request
to
try
to
meet
the
needs
of
our
citizens.
