A
All
right
welcome
welcome
everyone
to
the
Monday
November
19th
2018,
Evanston,
City,
Council,
you'll
notice,
it'll
be
a
little
different
tonight.
We
actually
held
executive
session
before
this
meeting,
so
we
did
roll
call
in
the
automatic
library
door
was
open
for
a
roll
call,
and
then
we
went
right
into
executive
session.
So
thank
you
for
for
being
here.
We're
gonna
go
right
now
into
Mayer
announcements.
I
have
a
sad
announcement
and
a
more
uplifting
announcement
because
about
the
holidays.
So
first
the
versus
the
the
sad
announcement.
A
You
know
we
have
about
800
employees
that
work
for
the
city.
We
had
one
of
our
city,
employees,
who
literally
was
still
on
our
city
payroll
and
actively
working
who
passed
away
recently
and
I
just
want
to
acknowledge
this
person
she's
somebody
that
heads
help
lots
of
people
up
here
at
this
diocese
and
lots
of
other
people,
and
that
is
Pandora
Pratt
Pandora
was
the
police
records
bureau
chief.
If
you
ever
had
to
go,
get
your
fingerprints
done
over
at
the
police
department.
Oftentimes
your
help
by
Pandora.
A
She
died
after
a
very
short
battle
with
cancer.
She
worked
with
the
city
since
July
2002
in
various
capacities
in
our
Police
Department.
She
started
as
a
service
desk
officer
at
the
police
front
desk.
In
2010
she
became
the
assistant
supervisor
of
the
police
front
desk
in
the
new
3-1-1
Center.
That's
now
been
around
for
eight
years,
so
she
was
part
of
part
of
that
which
has
been
really
a
a
real
positive
change
that
happened
in
the
city,
creating
three
one
one.
A
She
was
interim
instrumental
in
that
and
in
March
2015
she
was
promoted
to
be
the
police
records
bureau
manager,
a
pretty
important
job
to
maintain
all
of
the
police
records
that
we
have
in
a
lot
of
sensitivity,
she's
survived
by
her
husband
and
two
sons.
Her
services
will
be
in
Mississippi,
but
there
will
be
a
local
memorial
service
plan
for
her
later
here
and
flags
on
city
facilities,
flew
at
half-staff
through
this
past
Sunday
in
honor
of
Pandora.
So
a
very
sad
loss
for
all
of
us
here
in
the
city.
A
The
the
second
announcement
that
I
have
is
more
positive.
We
are
entering
our
holiday
season,
so
I
wish
everyone
a
wonderful
Thanksgiving
this
this
week
and
and
the
other
holidays
coming
up
in
December
as
part
as
part
of
the
holiday
season.
There
is
lots
of
opportunity
to
be
grateful
for
what
you
have
and
to
support
other
people
and
to
support
our
shop
owners.
We
have
the
mayor's
holiday
food
book
in
toy
drive
going
on.
We
have
boxes
throughout
the
city.
A
If
you
want
to
contribute
to
that,
you
can
also
look
in
the
city's
website
and
contribute
a
cash
donation.
So
far,
we've
had
close
to
three
thousand
dollars.
That's
been
been
donated
to
support
that
as
part
of
the
holidays.
One
of
the
big
things
is,
you
know,
shopping
local.
We
have
some
wonderful,
wonderful
retailers
here
and
so
I
am
proclaiming
November
24th
as
Small
Business
Saturday
in
Evanston
and
real
quick.
We
are
the
home,
as
many
people
know,
to
hundreds
of
small
businesses
that
contribute
to
our
neighborhood
character.
A
Employee
Evanston
residents
support
community
organizations
where,
as
small
businesses
employ
47
and
a
half
percent
of
all
private
sector
employees,
whereas
an
estimated
68
percent
of
money
spent
shopping
and
dining
at
locally
owned,
businesses
stays
here
locally,
whereas
many
public
and
private
organizations
across
the
country
have
endorsed
the
Saturday
after
Thanksgiving
as
Small
Business
Saturday.
Now,
therefore,
I
Steven,
Howard,
Haggerty,
mayor
of
the
city
of
Evanston,
do
hereby
proclaim
this
coming.
Saturday
September,
November
24th
as
Small
Business
Saturday
in
the
city
of
Evanston,
and
call
upon
all
residents
to
come
out
and
support.
A
All
of
our
small
business
owners.
I
have
two
of
our
folks
that
are
instrumental
and
in
helping
our
small
businesses
here
today
and
if
you
wouldn't
mind
just
coming
to
the
podium
for
a
second
sharing,
just
a
couple
other
important
things
that
we
want
folks
to
know,
we've
got
Annie
Coakley,
who
is
our
executive
director
of
downtown
Evanston
and
Catherine
Kasich?
Who
is
our
executive
director
of
the
Maine
Dempster
mile,
which
has
really
come
a
long
way
since
conference.
B
Do
you
know
the
importance
of
shopping
at
local
and
independent
businesses?
It's
a
big
deal.
Evanston
has
several
commercial
districts
featuring
quaint
and
funky
shops,
top-notch
restaurants
and
cafes,
and
exceptional
galleries,
supporting
businesses
and
all
these
districts
makes
Evanston
well
Evanston
for
every
$100
you
spend
at
an
independent
business,
$45
recirculates
in
the
local
economy
versus
$14
for
purchases
made
at
chain
stores
or
online.
In
addition,
local
sales
taxes
support
services
in
our
city.
B
Independent
businesses
give
our
community
a
distinct
personality,
plus
their
unique
characteristics,
attract
visitors
to
Evanston,
make
sure
you
get
it
right.
The
first
time
when
you
shop
at
a
local
store,
you
can
try
on
apparel
and
shoes
or
test
out
a
fragrance
or
product
before
you
buy
it.
Independent
businesses
are
people
sized
and
take
up
less
land
to
carry
more
locally
made
products
and
are
located
closer
to
residents,
thus
creating
less
traffic
and
air
pollution.
B
A
C
C
Again,
Small
Business
Saturday,
this
Saturday,
you
can
advance
sorry
thank
you.
We
will
be
set
up
at
the
one
River
School
at
10:33,
Davis
Street
will
be
handing
out
passports
and
then,
after
the
passports
are
filled
out,
which
means
a
shopper
has
spent
$100.
They
redeemed
that
passport
for
a
free
gift.
You
can
that's
the
passport
and
that's
the
free
gift,
just
shop,
small
bag
and
XO
XO,
hugs
and
kisses
coaster,
and
we
love
Evanston,
coffee,
mug
and
a
pound
of
colectivo
coffee
and
a
couple
of
other
coupons.
C
So
it's
a
great
price
or
a
free
gift.
I
should
say
a
value-add
for
anyone.
That's
shopping
local
in
downtown
Evanston.
After
that
we
have
the
warm
beby
walk.
This
is
our
fourth
one
December
6th
from
5
to
8
p.m.
and
we
are
checking
in
at
Iowa's
originals
on
Sherman
and
then,
of
course,
the
tree
lighting.
So
the
mayor
will
light
the
official
permanent
holiday
tree
this
year
and
5
o'clock
kicks
off
with
Evanston
children's
choir.
C
A
C
D
D
Our
holiday
lights
are
up,
including
those
iconic
candy
cane
lights,
on
Main
Street.
Next
one,
we
have
they're
good
for
something
and
we
have.
We
also
have
a
campaign
on
the
CTA
purple
and
red
lines.
This
is
it
right
there.
Nine
businesses
are
featured
it's
our
first
one,
so
we're
really
excited
about
it.
Next,
we
are
also
having
a
Small
Business
Saturday
promotion,
we're
playing
Monopoly
on
the
mile
each
of
those
little
spaces.
There
actually
represents
a
business,
so
you
can
shop
at
any
of
those.
D
39
businesses
fill
in
your
space
and
earn
prizes
when
you
shop
and
we
are
holding
our
first
holiday
stroll
it's
our
holiday
treat
walk.
We
have
30-plus
businesses
on
December
13th,
you
can
stroll
along
and
get
a
free,
traditional
holiday
treat,
or
some
of
them
are
planning
some
non-traditional
ones
too.
We're
excited
that's
what
we
have
thank
you
and
I
hope
we'll
see
you
all
down
on
the
mile
on
for
the
holidays,
great.
A
E
This
year
will
continue
with
free
parking
in
the
in
the
downtown
garages,
starting
now
starting
this
past
set
this
past
Saturday
and
going
to
come
this
coming
Saturday
and
going
through
the
end
of
the
first
week
in
January.
So
we
encourage
people
to
do
that.
We'll
also
have
various
changes
to
municipal
services,
which
will
cover
up
the
next
company.
A
E
Mr.
mayor
members,
the
council
good
evening
as
I
know,
you
all
are
aware.
Recently
the
Avastin
Fire
Department
received
the
ISO
class-of-one
status
as
a
class
1
fire
department.
We
have
waited
until
tonight
to
celebrate
this
because
we
have
a
special
guest
with
us
and
I
will
let
fire
chief
brian
scott,
to
make
those
introductions.
F
Mr.
mayor
members
of
the
City
Council
city
clerk,
read
city
manager,
Bob
gates
good
evening,
Fire
Chief
Brian
Scott
I'm
pleased
to
introduce
you
this
evening
office
of
the
State
Fire
Marshal
for
the
state
of
Illinois
Matt
Perez
and,
along
with
met,
I
brought
up
a
division
chief
Paul
polyp
shift
chief
tomono
I,
also
like
to
call
up
public
works
director
Dave
stone
back
if
he
could
come
up.
F
Oh
great
thanks.
Second,
and
as
you
know,
back
in
August,
we
talked
about
this
briefly
that
October
first,
we
were
designated
as
a
class-one
fire
department,
which
places
the
Evanston
fire
department
in
the
top
zero
zero,
seven
percent
of
all
fire
departments
in
the
United
States,
and
it
really
demonstrates
a
great
collaboration
between
us,
the
water
department
in
our
emergency
communication
system,
because
it
focuses
on
those
key
areas
that
all
together
make
sure
that
we
deliver
the
best
fire
protection
services
for
the
city
of
Evanston.
F
G
Continuing
with
the
theme
of
things
to
be
thankful
for
due
to
your
support
and
the
efforts
evident,
Evanston,
Fire,
Department
and
water
department
dispatch,
it's
a
team
effort
to
get
this
rating,
there's
only
17
fire
departments
in
the
state
of
Illinois
that
achieve
this
rating,
that's
out
of
about
1,200.
So
that
gives
you
an
idea
of
how
rare
this
is
and
I
really
hope
that
you
all
appreciate
what
these
guys
do.
G
They
they've
got
a
great
department
and
again
it's
it's
due
to
your
funding,
it's
due
to
your
backing
and
so
to
get
to
the
top
to
get
to
the
level
they're
at
it's
really
hard,
and
it's
there
to
be
congratulated,
and
the
other
thing
is
once
you
get
to
the
top.
The
only
thing
that's
harder
is
staying
on
top
once
you're,
a
champ
of
something
it's
hard
to
stay
there.
So
with
all
the
financial
issues
that
we're
all
dealing
with,
you
know
revenues
all
those
kind
of
things.
G
It's
really
important
that
we
keep
backing
these
individuals
for
the
efforts
they
have.
They
do
an
outstanding
job
and
I
would
encourage
you
all
to
continue
the
efforts
you've
made
to
support
them
in
work.
They
do
for
the
people
of
Evanston.
So
again,
thank
you
for
your
support
and
in
recognition
of
this
achievement,
I
would
like
to
present
this
plaque
to
Chief
Scott,
but
also
to
you,
like
I,
said,
because
it
recognizes
your
efforts
to
document
that
they
did
receive.
This
I
saw
one
which
is
an
outstanding
accomplishment.
F
A
H
Yes,
I
have
one
communication
it's
addressed
to
submitted
in
30
seconds,
it's
addressed
to
the
mayor
and
the
members
of
the
council.
Now
this
is
from
Landmarks
Illinois,
the
cultural
landscape
foundation,
the
National
Trust
for
Historic
Preservation,
open
lands,
safe
Arthur,
Clark,

dance

citizens,

central
street
neighbors
Association
and
the
Preservation
Lake
dear
mayor
Haggerty
and
members
of
the
City
Council.
H
We
were:
writing
you
respectfully
requesting
that
you
instruct
staff
to
withdraw
the
city's
two
militia,
no
requests
for
the
Harley
Clark
mansion.
As
you
know,
the
November
6th
citizen's
referendum
resulted
in
80
point
1
percent
of
voters,
favoring
preservation
of
the
landmark.
The
this
followed,
the
Evanston
Preservation
Commission
is
October
23rd
unanimous
vote
to
reject
the
city's
demolition
request,
as
the
city's
application
was
found
to
not
meet
any
of
the
required
criteria
needed
for
a
certificate
of
appropriateness.
City
Council
has
been
given
a
clear
directive.
H
Therefore,
we
think
it
appropriate
that
the
demolition
request
for
the
Harley
Clark
man
should
be
withdrawn.
At
this
time.
We
further
suggest
the
City
Council
take
immediate
action
to
mothball
the
mansion
until
a
reuse
plan
is
agreed
upon.
In
the
meantime,
local
advocates,
public
officials
and
organizations
represented
on
this
letter
can
regroup
and
present
to
the
city
with
an
agreed-upon
timeline,
a
new
proposal
that
allows
the
Harley
Clark
mansion,
with
its
gin
gents
and
design
landscape
to
function
as
a
community
asset
for
all
Evanston
citizens.
H
A
A
Based
on
the
number
of
people
that
we
have
set
up,
that
have
signed
up
I'm
going
to
give
up
to
two
and
up
to
two
and
a
half
minutes
if
people,
if
people
need
it
tonight
and
city
clerk,
if
you
wouldn't
mind
keeping
keeping
track,
I
will
ask
folks
if
you
would
again
be
conscious
if
that
buzzer
rings,
please
wrap
it
up
in
ten
in
ten
seconds
to
be
respectful
to
everybody
else.
That's
looking
to
speak
and
the
folks
up
here.
Just
so
everyone
knows,
I
mean
the
way
we
run.
A
Public
comment
certainly
can
be
on
any
topic
tonight.
The
item
that
is
on
the
agenda
for
the
City
Council
is
the
budget.
It's
the
2019
proposed
budget.
I
know
you
just
read
the
the
letter
clerk
read
the
Harley
Clarke
is
not
on
the
budget.
The
C
this
evening,
so
I
just
want
to
make
sure
people
were
aware
of
that.
Okay,
all
right.
So
the
first
three
we've
got
Eliot
session,
Eleni
Lampkin
and
then
Leslie
Williams.
I
Good
evening,
members
of
the
council
and
mayor,
my
name
is
Eliot.
Sation
I
live
in
the
9th
Ward
I'm
here,
primarily
to
speak
on
behalf
of
retaining
full
funding
for
the
victim
services
program.
However,
I
want
to
refer
to
the
context
in
which
the
proposed
cuts
are
taking
place.
We
have
heard
that
we
are
in
an
austerity
situation.
We
have
a
significant
budget
deficit
and
that
takes
priority
really
over
everything
else,
but
we
have
to
think
about.
How
do
we
get
here?
Has
the
city
managed
its
resources
carefully
over
the
past
six
to
eight
years?
I
It's
difficult
for
an
ordinary
resident
and
I
regard
myself
as
one
of
those
to
even
attempt
to
answer
that
question,
but
the
council
should
be
able
to
amass
the
data
to
begin
to
provide
an
answer.
Without
that
kind
of
examination
we
will
never
know
whether
these
proposed
cuts
are
justified.
A
second
question
is
whether
the
city
has
explored
fully
sources
of
progressive
revenue.
This
is
again
an
issue
because
of
the
recent
referendum
on
the
real
estate
transfer
tax.
How
will
the
increase
revenue
from
the
real
estate
transfer
tax
be
allocated?
I
I
would
urge
the
council
to
reserve
it
for
both
affordable,
the
affordable
housing
fund
and
also
to
reduce
the
proposed
cuts
in
important
social
services.
This
is
what
applying
an
equity
lens
to
the
city's
expenditures
requires.
So
go
back
to
the
victim
advocate
service
of
Victim
Services.
The
job
of
victim
advocate
requires
a
connection
to
the
police
department.
It
is
casework
that
needs
access
to
police
records
in
order
to
help
victims
to
navigate
police
and
court
services
and
provide
referrals.
Victim
Services
should
restore
to
the
police
department.
I
Those
who
get
prefer
to
get
services
from
the
way
WCA
will
still
be
able
to
do
so,
but
this
should
not
be
the
only
option.
The
Y
does
not
specialize
in
the
legal
side
of
advocacy
and
does
not
have
ready
access
to
police
records.
We
would
be
losing
a
continuum
of
care
if
we
go
ahead.
If
the
city
goes
ahead
and
does
this,
the
city
has
quite
a
history
now
of
privatizing
services
for
the
most
vulnerable,
and
one
of
the
things
that
gets
lost
is
when
these
cuts
are
made.
I
Do
the
people
who
are
impacted
the
most
does
the
city
know?
Does
the
city
research
who
actually
loses
most
of
the
time
when
a
program
is
cut?
It's
unfortunate?
We
have
a
budget
deficit,
we
don't
bother
to
find
out,
hurt
and
how
much
of
a
difference
it
made
in
their
life
unless
we
start
to
answer
those
kinds
of
questions,
it's
easy
to
go
ahead
and
and
cut
services,
but
I
think
over
the
period
that
this
has
become
more
prevalent
privatization.
I
Consolidation
programs
has
disproportionately
impacted
the
people
who
need
these
services.
The
most
thank
you
thank
you,
so
I
would
urge
you
to
think
carefully
about
how
we
got
here
and
whether
there
are
other
sources
of
revenue
that
could
be
used
to
reduce
these
kinds
of
cuts.
Thank
you
very
much.
Thank
You
Elliot.
J
J
We
are
gonna
privatize,
the
crossing
guards
we're
going
to
privatize
the
city's
victim
service
advocates
and
there's
many
other
little
things
snuck
into
the
budget
that
privatizes
city
services
I'll
remind
you
that
when
we
privatize
city
services
we
lose
connections
as
citizens
to
our
city.
We
don't
have
a
redress.
If
the
agencies
don't
do
what
they
promised
and
then
they
can
come
back
and
say
well,
we
need
more
money
and
we
always
end
up
giving
them
the
more
money
so
that
we
don't
lose
the
services.
So
we
don't
save
any
money.
J
Arielle,
Jackson
and
Kelly
Nelson
are
the
city's
victim
service
advocates.
Until
last
year
they
worked
for
the
police
department,
where
they
assisted
victims
and
families.
In
case
of
domestic
violence,
sexual
assaults,
death
notification,
orders
of
protection,
homicide
or
suicide.
They
would
work
every
day
and
switch
off
overnight
call
responsibilities,
so
they
were
on
24/7.
Is
the
YWCA
going
to
provide
24/7
coverage
they're
going
to
have
a
crisis
intervention
team?
It's
one
4:7
is
that
written
into
the
contract?
J
They
would
help
officers
and
detectives
question
victims,
consoled
people
when
a
loved
one
died
sit
with
those
in
a
hospital
while
they
were
examined
after
a
sexual
assaults,
be
called
to
the
scene
of
a
serious
accident
or
crime
to
provide
support
to
the
victims.
Witnesses
and
family
members
coordinate
car,
rentals
and
hotel
rooms
for
families
who
needed
those
services
and
sit
throughout
many
court
cases
with
victims
explaining
the
process
and
procedure
by
simply
handing
over
tissues
when
they
were
needed
last
year.
J
Because
of
the
budget,
we
moved
up
from
the
police
department
to
Department
of
Human
Services,
and
now
they
were
given
their
layoff
papers.
So
I
asked
in
the
cities
all
through
2019
priority
services
done
by
our
city
manager.
This
cities,
Victim
Services,
was
ranked
by
residents
as
the
fourth,
the
fourth
most
important
service.
It
doesn't
mean,
then
we
can
contract
it
out
and
hope
that
it
provides
the
same
quality
of
service.
It's
not
going
to
do
that.
J
A
move
that
places
these
services
even
further
from
the
police
department
and
the
victims
who
depend
on
them
laying
off
these
two
people
would
mark
an
end
to
Evanston's
40
year.
History
of
providing
crime
served
victims
with
the
services
that
they
need
at
the
moment.
The
moment
that
they're
hurting
the
most
with
instant,
immediate,
direct
and
ongoing
social
service
support
who
are
specially
trained
in
the
field
and
I'll
just
add
I
did
youth
advocacy
in
public
health.
My
whole
career
I
ran
and
manage
the
crisis
intervention
team.
J
When
you
contract
out
those
crisis
intervention
workers,
you
lose
the
ability
to
get
there
on
a
moment's
notice
and
that's
what
these
two
employees
do.
They're
there
on
a
moment's
notice,
and
hopefully
none
of
you
or
any
of
your
family
members
will
ever
have
to
rely
on
these
services,
because,
if
you'll
do
you'll
realize
how
important
these
two
people
are
to
our
city
and
to
our
members
of
our
city
and
I
am
one.
Thank
you
very
much.
Thank
you.
Ronnie
bless.
K
Evening,
City
Council
and
mayor
Haggerty
I'm
not
going
to
take
up
my
whole
two
and
a
half
minutes,
because
I
think
Elliott
and
Larry
have
said
most
of
what
I
wanted
to
say.
But
I
just
wanted
to
stress
that
these
two
women,
Arielle
and
Kelly
do
a
job
that
nobody
else
is
really
willing
or
able
to
do.
And
already
since
they've
been
removed
from
the
police
department
and
put
in
in
Health
and
Human
Services.
They
have
felt
that
this
has
compromised
the
ability
to
do
their
job
because
they're
not
immediately
there
when
they're
needed.
K
One
of
them
spoke
of
an
incident
where
she
was
already
in
the
hospital
with
a
victim,
but
because
she'd
been
moved
from
police
services
to
Health
and
Human
Services.
She
had
to
call
to
get
the
authorization
to
work
with
the
victim
before
she
could
actually
start
helping
the
person.
So
this
separation
was
delaying
the
care
and
moving
this
to
the
YWCA.
An
organization
that
is
not
even
part
of
the
city
of
Evanston
would
remove
that
continuum
of
care
even
more
than
it's
already
been
removed.
K
So
I
asked
you
to
take
a
look
at
this
proposal
and
to
consider
whether
this
is
truly
the
best
thing
for
the
most
vulnerable
people
in
Evanston,
considering
that
victim
services
is
largely
largely
being
used
by
the
lowest
income,
African,
American
and
Latino
women,
so
once
again
the
very
vulnerable
people
in
our
community
who
really
need
this
service
and
I'm
here
with
proclaim
Evanston
and
also
with
several
members
of
opals,
saying
to
please
prioritize
our
people.
Thank
you
very
much.
Thank.
L
Good
evening
my
name
is
Melissa
a
pelt
and
I'm
here
on
behalf
of
First
United
Methodist,
Church,
interfaith
action
of
Evanston,
advocacy,
advocacy
committee
and
prioritize
our
people
since
June
interfaith
action,
team
has
been
meeting
with
city
staff
to
speak
out
against
proposed
cuts
to
2019
budget
regarding
the
Mental,
Health
Board
and
any
vital
community
services
used
by
people
at
risk
or
experiencing
homelessness.
Three
weeks
ago,
our
team
presented
almost
400
signatures
from
faith
communities
across
Evanston,
also
urging
the
City
Council
not
to
cut
funds
to
the
Mental
Health
Board.
L
Last
week,
alderman
wim
requested
any
cuts
from
the
Mental
Health
Board
be
removed
from
the
proposed
budget.
That
request
is
reflected
in
the
most
recent
budget
worksheet
in
the
City
Council's
packets,
we're
here
tonight
to
say
thank
you
to
all
Durman
went
to
the
City
Council
and
city
staff
for
reinstatement
of
the
Mental
Health
Board
budget.
We
thank
you
for
listening
and
for
hearing
the
many
voices
of
concern
regarding
important
community
issues.
Thank
you.
A
M
M
Someone
told
me
that,
but
if
let
me
be
perfectly
clear
because
I
have
been
criticizing
performance
of
certain
people,
but
not
the
city
staff
I'm,
not
criticizing
the
worker
who's
out
here
and
sub
clothes
temperatures
in
the
in
a
ditch,
because
the
water
pipes
broke
I've
seen
that
gentleman
out
there
a
couple
times,
I've
seen
a
mere
City
Council
I'm,
not
criticizing
him
I'm,
not
criticizing
the
police
officers
or
firefighters
that
do
their
jobs
or
really
the
police
officers.
It
was
in
front
of
my
house
recently
because
they
had
no
backup
to
do
his
job.
M
It
was
pretty
disgusting
because,
while
he
cut
all
the
people,
like
everything
he's
done
here
or
but
I
guess,
you've
heard
about
the
victim
advocates
was
I,
don't
know
a
lot
about,
but
it's
the
same
thing
time
and
time
again
here:
everything's
getting
gutted
and
destroyed
I'm
talking
about
mr.
babka,
which
is
competence
and
I'm.
Talking
about
his
direct
staff's
competence
of
what's
going
on
here,
I,
don't
like
what's
happening
with
the
crossing
guards:
I,
don't
have
children,
young
children,
basically,
but
I,
see.
What's
going
on.
M
There
I
see
it's
another
scam
of
his
that
puts
children
at
risk
because
when
there's
nobody
there
is
this
company
gonna
get
people
there
or
whether
we
need
to
bring
the
police
and
the
other
people
there
to
protect
the
children,
and
you
are
responsible
for
the
streets
here.
That
is
your
responsibility.
Ever
since
he's
been
here,
he
takes
things
and
he
moves
him.
He
guts
them.
M
He
moves
them
around
and
gets
rid
of
them
and
that's
what
he's
been
doing
so
the
people
of
this
community
are
getting
wise
and
they're
going
to
get
wise
pretty
soon.
A
lot
of
these
things,
and
as
far
as
where
this
budgets
going
2020,
is
just
as
bad
understand
that
James
Park
is
coming
with
two
million
dollars
all
these
lawsuits
and
problems
are
coming
at
the
last
council
meeting,
I
understood
$800,000
was
basically
spent
on
legal
fees
at
the
same
time,
you're
taking
in
$800,000
and
raising
the
property
taxes,
so
it
wiped
it
out
completely.
M
It
didn't
go
to
social
services
or
anything
else.
So,
frankly,
basically
you've
seen
our
gonna
see
a
15
to
20
percent
property
class
in
2020
and
the
fees
are
gonna
be
gone
because
you
don't
have
any
more
feast
or
raise.
You
were
17
percent
this
year
and
I'll.
Tell
you
what
the
other
thing
he
did.
Probably
four
or
five
years
ago
was
with
the
recycling
stickers.
Those
numbers
were
not
correct
and
that
created
even
a
bigger
hole
and
I
suspect.
Some
of
these
fees
will
not
materialize,
so
you'll
deal
with
a
bigger
hole
than
2020.
M
So
that's
my
problem
here
and
you
know
you
ought
to
be
an
executive
session
tonight
talking
about
what
mr.
Bokka,
which
recently
did
with
this
land,
swap
deal.
He
wants
to
do
because
alderman
Fleming,
it
did
ask
him
how
much
you
know
was
this
gonna
cost
any
money,
he
sat
there
and
he
looked
off
into
space
and
then
he
asked
can
I
proceed
with
it.
An
alderman
Braithwaite
said.
Yes,
you
ought
to
be
asking
him
an
executive
session
what's
going
on
here,
because
you
are
responsible
to
deal
with
this.
M
You
may
not
want
to
talk
about
in
public,
but
you
need
to
deal
with
it
because
I
know
that
land
swap
will
cost
us,
probably
in
excess
of
million
dollars.
It's
a
scheme
and
just
in
the
middle
of
a
budget
crisis
we're
wasting
money.
It's
amazing
we're
gonna,
protect
the
private
interest
over
citizens
and
everything
else
here.
Thank
You.
N
Elementary,
my
husband
and
I
have
been
Evanston
residents
since
2009
and
I'm
here
to
voice
my
support
for
making
whatever
budget
adjustments
are
necessary.
It's
a
fully
funds,
our
EMS
and
firefighters
in
Evanston,
and
keep
fire
station
number
four
open.
I.
Think
every
Evanston
resident
should
care
about
this
issue,
but
I
have
an
extra
reason
to
be
invested,
because
my
son
Nathan,
who
is
with
me
tonight,
has
a
severe
life-threatening
food
allergy.
N
If
my
son
accidentally
eats
the
food
he's
allergic
to
his
throat,
which
throats
as
well
close
and
he
will
die
without
emergency
treatment,
we
have
epi
pens
at
home,
but
an
EpiPen
is
only
meant
to
treat
an
allergic
reaction
for
10
minutes.
If
an
EMS
response
is
not
there,
when
the
EpiPen
wears
off
a
child
or
an
adult
will
die.
N
N
A
So,
just
so
just
so
folks
are
a
lot
of
moving
pieces
here
with
the
budget,
and
so
just
so
everybody
knows.
The
proposed
revised
budget
that
we're
going
to
be
discussing
tonight
does
not
have
a
firehouse
number
four
eliminated.
It's
actually,
so
it's
funded
in
the
budget.
Okay,
let's
go
to
the
next
speaker.
O
Evening
my
name
is
Vivian
Chiu
I'm
in
a
physician
in
Evanston
and
a
resident
of
the
Third
Ward
I'm
here
to
support
my
support
for
Victim
Services,
the
police
and
the
community
have
repeatedly
supported
Victim
Services.
Why
would
any
Evan
stone
ian
elect
to
dissolve
or
dilute
a
useful
resource
to
our
city's
most
vulnerable
citizens?
The
program
should
Maidan
remain
intact.
The
way
it
is
the
relationship
between
advocates
and
police
officers
and
resources
should
main
intact
as
well.
Cutting
or
reorganizing
Victim
Services
does
not
reflect
the
values
of
Evan
stone.
O
Ian's
I
am
NOT
a
social
worker
or
a
government
official.
But
as
a
physician
I
can
tell
you
when
Illinois
privatized
Medicaid
years
ago,
it
has
impacted
our
patients
extremely
negatively.
It
has
added
layers
of
bureaucracy,
inconsistency
and
fragmentation
to
medical
care
for
the
most
underserved
patients.
It
has
complicated
pharmacy
benefits,
specialty
care
and
general
access
to
care.
O
I've,
had
patients
travel
from
two
hours
away,
just
to
see
me
and
I,
don't
think
it's
because
I'm
the
best
doctor
in
Illinois
I
think
it's
because
it's
a
really
screwed
up
system
now,
I,
don't
believe
privatization
adds
any
value,
but
only
barriers
to
our
most
underserved
and
I
would
ask
that
you
support
the
most
vulnerable
citizens
of
our
city.
Thank
you.
A
P
P
Currently,
the
medical
director
of
trauma-informed
care
and
education
at
Northwestern
Medicine,
the
head
of
intimate
partner,
sexual
violence
prevention
group
and
the
community
physician
liaison
for
our
camp
at
university
campus
Coalition
on
sexual
violence,
so
I
really
have
experienced
here
with
working
with
these
victims
and
I,
cannot
adequately
explain
in
a
minute
how
much
our
patients
rely
on
our
Victim
Services
advocates.
They
support
their
lives.
After
a
terrible,
traumatic,
life-altering
event
and
I
believe
our
police
officers
officers
really
do
respect
and
rely
on
these
services
for
victims
of
crime.
P
They
can
focus
on
solving
the
crime
because
there
really
may
not
be
able
to
be
here
and
comment
publicly.
I
want
to
speak
on
behalf
of
a
few
that
I
know.
So
we
know
the
two
women
have
been
introduced
already:
Ariel
and
Kelly.
They
do
incredible
and
seems
like
underappreciated
work
and
I
do
really
believe
that
the
work
that
they
do
reduces
future
violence
in
our
city
reduces
potential
suicides.
They
are
helping
those
members
in
our
community
who
are
most
in
need
of
emergent
support.
P
It
would
be
very
short-sighted
for
a
city
to
cut
these
positions
and
their
services
for
the
budget
reasons.
Their
loss
would
be
a
huge
loss
to
our
city
and
to
my
patients,
I
don't
know.
If
any
of
you
are
aware,
there
was
just
a
shooting
at
Mercy
house
all
today,
an
emergency
room
physician
was
shot.
I
hope
her
family
has
access
to
Victim
Services
as
I
would
want
from
family.
If
something
happened
to
me,
so
please
support
them
in
our
budget
and
I
also
want
to
just
quickly
out
here.
P
If
I
have
a
few
more
minutes,
the

P
Q
Standing
outside
Lincoln
school
I
talked
with
Ruth
Bower
a
92
year
old,
who
fled
Nazi
Germany
for
America
in
1936
about
why
she
believes
we
should
be
stewards
of
our
beloved
Harley,
Clark
mansion
and
Jen's
Jensen
Gardens.
She
is
quoted
in
the
Chicago
Tribune.
Saying
quote:
some
of
the
past
should
remain
with
us.
We
shouldn't
forget
it.
We
shouldn't
eliminate
it
for
a
buck.
Q
Thompson
Mays
and
the
National
Trust
for
Historic
Preservation.
Why
do
old
places
matter
series
quoted
President
Kennedy
quote:
I
look
forward
to
an
America
which
will
not
be
afraid
of
grace
and
beauty
which
will
protect
the
beauty
of
our
environment,
which
will
preserve
the
great
old
American
houses
and
squares
and
parks
of
our
national
past
and
which
will
build
handsome
in
balance
cities
for
a
future.
Please
remember
the
Athenian
oath
you
all
took
when
you
were
sworn
in
as
council
members.
Q
We
will
transmit
this
city
greater,
better
and
more
beautiful
than
it
was
transmitted
to
us.
Please
honor.
The
respectful
request
from
the
organizations
in
the
joint
letter
clerk
read
read
into
the
record.
I
hope
he
will
instruct
staff
to
withdraw
the
city's
demolition
request
for
the
Harley
Clan
Harley
Clarke
mansion.
Thank
you.
Thank.
R
You
there
are
two
main
reasons
why
the
city
has
a
2019
budget
deficit,
unnecessary
spending
on
frivolous,
expensive
projects
and
unnecessary
financial
waste
due
to
inexperienced
office
staff,
making
bad
decisions
without
tax
with
our
taxpayer
dollars.
Without
these
two
factors
evident
would
have
a
budget
surplus
in
2018.
It
would
not
have
to
cut
social
programs
in
2019.
These
are
facts,
and
the
arithmetic
is
that
simple
all
the
men
suffer
men
suffer
and
feels
it's
rude
of
me
to
remind
the
council
of
its
voting
and
spending
record,
as
illustrated
on
the
board.
R
Jeanette
is
helping
me
with
tonight.
It's
not
personal
and
I'm,
not
and
I'm
surprised
that
the
message
on
the
board
is
taken
as
such
an
affront.
It's
just
the
facts.
Eight
members
of
the
City
Council
voted
unanimously
for
a
huge
increase
in
evident
debt
limit,
approved
the
sale
of
eighty
five
million
dollars
in
new
bonds
plus
millions
of
dollars
in
annual
interest
on
the
debt.
All
of
this
financial
burden
to
be
paid
the
of
Evanston
citizens
for
the
decades
to
come.
R
R
The
city
is
telling
the
community
now
that
we
have
to
cut
youth
and
young
adult
services,
cut
victim
victim
services,
cut
other
social
services
and
rate,
raise
taxes,
fees
and
fines
to
balance
the
budget,
a
2%
property
tax
increase
was
disclosed
just
last
week,
supported
by
the
mayor
to
balance
the
budget.
The
mayor
and
the
council
have
deceived
us
by
promising
not
to
raise
property
taxes,
then,
at
the
last
minute
changed
their
mind
to
support
Bobby
tax
increases
that
is
rude.
R
Citizens
are
still
recovering
from
a
huge
school
board:
tax
increase
in
American
income
tax
increase,
the
library
board,
just
passed,
another
property
tax
increase
and
the
newly
elected
governor
will
sue
proposed.
Statewide
tax
increases
tonight.
The
City
Council
has
an
opportunity
to
pile
on
more
taxes,
fees
and
fines,
or
refrain
from
doing
so.
I
hope
you
do
the
latter.
It's
your
vote.
It's
your
record.
Thank
you.
Thank.
S
Evening,
council,
members
and
city
manager,
mayor
Haggerty,
thank
you
for
having
me
up
here,
I'm
from
the
4th
Ward
in
Evanston
I'm,
very
concerned
about
Ariel
Janssen
and
Kelly
Nelson
being
laid
off
from
their
advocacy
jobs
and
victim
services,
because
our
budget
crisis,
they
perform
important
duties
to
assist
the
EPD
in
health
services.
In
asking
questions,
they
help
victims
of
violent
crimes,
sexual
assault,
domestic
issues
and
council
victims
and
tough
situations.
S
Erin
Kelly
they
work
consistently
and
tirelessly.
Almost
24/7
I
do
not
understand
who
would
respond
to
these
emergency
situations
in
a
timely
manner
if
they
were
brought
to
the
YMCA
at
YWCA?
Instead,
historically,
we
were
the
second
city
in
the
country
to
have
Victim
Services
dating
to
1976.
It
would
be
devastating
for
after
40
plus
years,
if
Evanston
were
to
move
this
vital
service,
while
surrounding
communities
have
their
own.
S
T
T
U
Members
of
council
city
manager,
clerk
read,
name's
Joshua
Homme,
member
of
the
eighth
ward,
I
have
been
coming
to
City.
Council
means
for
quite
some
time.
I
have
also
been
attending
different
events
in
our
city
that
supposed
that
sponsor
and
support
those
that
truly
need
it
I've
seen
many
of
their
and
I
want
to.
U
Thank
you,
but
also
know
that,
for
some
people
isn't
enough
now,
speaking
to
some
families,
that
some
of
these
events
and
they've
told
me
that
the
euphy
Ando
division
has
opened
the
eyes
of
their
young
men,
their
young
woman
has
allowed
them
to
participate
in
the
community
again,
I've
heard
them
and
how
they
speak
of
how
they
can
service,
have
aided
them
and
how
they
couldn't.
Imagine
that
having
these
services,
they
could
imagine
their
young
man
growing
up,
not
having
faith,
but
they
able
to
keep
going
on
that.
U
If
something
were
to
happen
due
to
the
programs
not
being
installed.
That
I'm
not
sure
the
registers
are
there
for
me
today
why
these
individuals
just
want
to
know
that
you
all
care
they
want
to
know
that
this
is
a
benefit
to
them
and
that
we
are
really
making
a
change.
Our
lights
encourage
each
and
every
one
of
you
during
the
call
of
wards.
U
Comments
such
as
almond
for
me,
has
done
to
speak
to
the
fact
of
how
these
programs
have
benefited
each
and
every
one
year
awards
and
look
deep
down
in
your
heart
to
see
how
does
benefited
what
can
be
changed?
How
could
be
made
better
because
the
citizens
of
our
city
agree?
That
is
better.
Thank
you.
V
Went
through
the
package
and
everything
in
page
269
is
the
worksheet
that
was
went
through
on
the
12th.
That
gave
figures
reason
why
these
changes
and
things
was
made.
My
question
tonight
is
what
happened
of.
When
will
you
know
if
the
revenue
that
you
are
expecting
to
receive
in
the
end
of
2018
and
the
first
quarter
of
2019
does
not
come
in?
What
will
our
situation
be?
We
are
at
a
deficit.
What
that
put
us
even
further
down
the
line,
so
I
think
we
need
to
know
that
before
you
approve
this
budget
tonight.
Thank
you.
V
A
W
Glad
there
are
people
who
have
pointed
out
what
many
people
feel
across
the
community,
not
just
a
subset
of
the
community,
that
social
services
are
essential
for
our
community.
In
general.
We,
like
I,
mentioned
last
week
in
terms
of
economic
development.
It
seems
that
the
City
Council
is
oriented
in
that
direction,
and
it's
somehow
now
they're
making
money
is
going
in
and
of
itself
is
going
to
make
evanston
grow
as
a
community.
We
know
that
we
get
things
from
nonprofits
and
we
say:
oh,
we
don't
want
to
support
nonprofits
if
they
can't
pay
taxes.
W
Not
not
just
not
someone
that
you
decrease
resources,
because
I
myself
personally
never
thought
in
a
million
years.
I'd
need
the
help
of
a
social
worker
without
her
I
think
I
would
not
be
alive.
Okay
and
that's
not
an
overstatement
and
there's
a
lot
of
other
people
who
feel
the
same
way.
Now.
The
value
of
a
life
is
a
lot
if
I'm
a
pain
in
the
butt.
W
Maybe
it's
not
so
much,
but
I
tend
to
think
that
I'm
trying
to
say
something
to
you
that
you
already
know
and
that's
an
Emerson
kind
of
event
that
I
have
and
that
we
all
have
the
power
to
act
from
the
best
part
of
ourselves.
I'd
like
to
City
Council,
to
start
looking
at
things
not
just
from
the
economics
of
it,
but
the
economics
cannot
survive
without
the
human
element
and
that
Community
Development
should
be
top
on
our
lists
and
that
should
be
H
Health
and
Human.
W
Services
and
Health
and
Human
Services
have
proved
that
they
get
they
generate
money
and
we
need
grants.
We
need
that's
to
help
people
there's
a
person
within
a
vonda's
group
that
is
assigned
to
homelessness
prevention.
Does
anyone
even
know
about
that
that
group
is
it
needs
more
funds?
You
need
the
two
people,
you
don't
need
just
one,
or
at
least
keep
the
assistant
directors
job
open
and
see
what
happens
and
emerges
when
people
start
thinking
creatively.
Thank.
Y
Well,
this
is
our
fifth
budget
meeting
I
believe
in
five
weeks,
I
thought
we
had
a
handle
on
the
budget
back
in
April
I
know
you
have
a
difficult
task
in
front
of
you.
I
would
not
want
to
be
sitting
up
there
instead
of
you
and
I,
do
appreciate
the
efforts
that
those
of
you
have
made
to
try
to
make
this
2019
budget
work
for
all
of
us.
Y
Congratulations
to
all
Evanston
residents
for
making
2018
election
the
highest
voter
turnout
ever
this
shows
that
we
want
to
be
involved
in
this
process
and
was
created
for
all
of
us
to
enjoy,
and
concerning
the
budget
we
see
this
as
a
fort
four-part
process.
Number
one
choose
a
project
number
to
determine
how
much
the
total
cost
will
be
number
three,
how
the
project
will
be
paid
for
and
most
important
get
resident
input
as
to
whether
we
agree
with
the
project
and
the
expense.
Y
To
finish
our
comments,
we
have
two
questions.
Have
you
looked
at
all
the
memos
charts,
graphs
and
worksheets
as
to
the
impact
of
this
2019
budget
on
all
Evanston
residents
that
we
are
paying
for
and
lastly,
but
most
important,
have
you
taken
into
account
the
input
of
the
Evanston
residents,
who
desperately
want
to
be
a
part
of
this
process?
Thank
you.
Thank.
Z
Many
of
the
topics
that
everyone
discussed
was
really
respectful.
The
Harley
Clark
mansion
is
a
great
site
that
needs
to
be
preserved.
The
Health
and
Human
Services
is
valuable.
You
need
people
in
Evanston,
otherwise
your
tax
money
will
not
be
paid
because
you
need
people
to
generate
the
money
and
the
gun.
Laws
are
a
really
big
debate.
That's
definitely
a
great
cause
to
be
a
part
of,
however,
there's
one
cause
that
I'm
advocating
for
that.
Z
I
think
everyone
should
be
a
part
of
the
reason
being
is
because
the
sustainability
and
carp
movement
are
which
I'm
advocating
for
are
key
to
creating
cost
efficiencies
and,
as
you
all
know,
we're
here
to
discuss
the
budget
tonight.
Our
budget
is
not
looking
good
and
all
of
the
green
energy
and
sustainability
movements
that
we've
signed
up
for
in
evanston
over
the
years
has
created
cost
efficiencies
and
those
cost
efficiencies
helped
the
budget.
Z
Now
the
climate
action
and
resiliency
plan
is
a
movement
that
is
trying
to
make
Evanston
50
percent
less
carbon
generating
of
a
city
by
2025
and
carbon
neutral
by
2050.
So
far
in
Evanston,
we've
decreased
our
carbon
output
by
25
percent.
Since
the
year
2005
and
throughout
the
process
we've
been
cutting
costs
not
generating
them,
as
all
of
the
green
technologies
become
more
more
efficient,
they
start
saving
money
in
the
long
run,
not
costing
more
money
now
think
about
it.
Global
warming
is
a
serious
problem.
Z
So
if
you
think
about
how
quickly
the
temperature
has
changed
in
the
past
century,
or
so
that's
clearly
something
that's
out
of
the
ordinary,
so
the
only
way
we
could
combat
that
is
advocate
for
the
climate,
action
and
resiliency
plan
and
any
other
sustainability
movement
and,
as
I
said
earlier,
that
will
cut
costs
and
which
will
enable
us
to
advocate
and
support
all
the
other
causes
that
everyone
else
is
advocating
for
thanks.
Think.
AA
AA
They
provided
us
with
a
great
deal
of
emotional
support,
especially
just
Tuesday
at
our
last
court
date
in
which
was
the
first
time
that
all
three
people
were
present
the
defendant
in
the
two
witnesses
that
were
there
and
I
find
myself
breaking
down
and
REO
came
out
and
she
comfort
me
she
supported
me.
She
provided
a
distraction
to
keep
my
attention
away
from
one
of
the
people
and
his
family
as
he
left.
The
courthouse,
as
I
was
waiting
for
the
state's
attorney
to
come
out
and
basically
break
down.
AA
What's
going
to,
you
know
transpire
as
they're
trying
to
get
everything
settled
for
trial,
so
I
just
feel
like
Victim.
Services
is
a
service
that
we
really
need
here.
In
this
community,
especially
going
trial,
like
I
said,
we've
been
going
back
and
forth
support
for
the
last
five
years
and
Tuesday.
It
awakened
a
lot
of
feelings
that
I'm
pretty
sure
once
trial
comes
about.
Those
feelings
will
be
there
and
as
far
as
the
family,
you
know
we'll
all
probably
be
broken,
because
it
was
like
a
jab
that
we
felt
when
we
first
got
the
news.
AA
A
All
right
that
concludes
public
comment
this
evening.
Thank
you,
everybody
for
coming
out
and
sharing
your
your
perspective
and
your
thoughts.
Your
concerns
we're
now
going
to
move
to
the
agenda.
What
I'd
like
to
what
I'd
like
to
do?
We
have
as
you'll,
see
in
this
agenda.
We
have
a
lot
on
this
agenda.
All
practically
all
of
these
items
are
relating
to
the
budget,
and
so
what
I'd
like
to
do
is
I'd
like
to
go
to
item
number
36.
A
Since
our
last
meeting,
I'm
gonna
go
ahead
and
just
do
item
number
one
which
is
for
actions
is
the
agreement
for
crossing
guard
services
with
Andy
frame
services
incorporated
and
the
staff
recommends
it
accounts,
will
authorize
the
city
manager
and
enter
into
a
three-year
agreement
with
Andy
frame
services
to
provide
crossing
guard
services
in
the
amount
not
to
exceed
six
hundred
and
twenty
thousand
six
hundred
and
sixty
two
dollars
per
year
with
two
one-year
option.
Extensions
and
that's
the
the
item
for
action
this
evening.
A
AB
AC
Evening,
my
name
is
ed
Maillard
and
on
behalf
of
Andy
frame
services,
we
are
excited
to
be
calm.
Your
part
in
providing
crossing
guard
services
and
the
safe
corridor
for
your
school
students
and
your
future
leaders
of
the
city
of
Evanston
Andy
frame
services
currently
manages
over
25
crossing
guard
programs
in
the
Chicagoland
area.
18
of
them
are
with
municipalities.
AC
Our
commitment
to
the
city
of
Evanston
is
to
welcome
all
the
existing
crossing
guards
into
our
transition.
We
will
also
go
ahead
and
do
our
recruitment
focusing
on
the
residents
of
the
city
of
Evanston.
Our
field
supervisor
that
we
will
go
ahead
and
implement
in
this
program
will
come
from
the
city
of
Evanston
with
that
situation
there
and
that
I
open
it
up
for
any
questions.
A
AD
Evening,
I
have
no
problem
with
the
concept
of
switching
to
you.
However,
we
once
privatized
the
garages
management
of
the
garages,
and
we
were
promised
by
a
vendor
many
years
ago
that
I
will
keep
all
your
employees
I
will
I
will
keep
your
employees
on
and
for
sure
he
did
that
the
first
year
then,
when
it
was
time
for
raises
because
he
could
get
cheaper
people,
all
of
our
employees
were
laid
off
all
of
them.
So
it's
not
your
job
to
make
a
contract
airtight,
but
I
am
saying
to
our
staff.
AD
This
contract
needs
to
be
air
tight.
Our
people
need
to
transition
to
this
company
without
fail
if
they
want
to
if
they
want
to-
and
they
cannot
be
ceremonial
unceremoniously
dismissed
after
the
first
year
or
whenever
wages
are
to
be
renegotiated,
because
that
will
just
defeat
the
whole
matter
of
us
going
to
private,
which
is
why
most
people
don't
like
to
go
private
because
they
don't
trust
going
forward.
Just
say
thank.
AE
Might
have
a
similar
concern,
although
I
wasn't
here
for
the
garage
situation,
but
my
question
has
to
do
with
kind
of
that
same
thing.
So
I
read
your
material.
One
thing,
I
will
say:
I
appreciate
your
full
list
of
your
attempt
to
find
in
W
e
WM,
B
fender,
so
appreciate
you
listed
and
out
there
and
who
responded
and
who
didn't.
But
my
question
I
guess
is
more
so
you
mentioned
thing,
you
know,
give
some
pictures
of
the
uniforms
and
you
talked
about
the
transition
and
you
talk
about
one
more
service.
AE
AE
So
you
know,
as
these
people
have
been
in
this
job,
for
a
while
and
are
doing
a
good
job
kind
of
what
is
your
arm
boarding,
because
I
don't
want
this
to
be
more
difficult
for
our
really
great
crossing
guards
where
they
feel
like
this
has
become
more
of
a
frustration
that
they
have
to
go
through
some
new
protocol.
They
have
to
buy
some
new.
You
know
equipment
right
now.
They
just
I
think
all
wear
a
vest.
AC
We
want
to
bring
on
all
the
nuts
all
the
current
crossing
guards
in
order
to
do
that,
we
will
bring
the
necessary
staff
in
order
for
us
to
go
ahead
and
onboard
them.
We
will
also
put
them
through
our
training,
which
is
really
just
a
a
subset
or
an
enhancement
of
what
you've
already
done
for
your
team
members
there,
which
is
kind
of
getting
them
and
merged
into
the
Andy
frame
situation
that
we've
got
in
our
conversations
with
the
parking
division
of
the
city
of
Evanston.
AC
We
talked
about
being
seamless,
so
we
sat
there
and
said
okay,
for
as
we
make
this
transition,
let's
not
change
the
uniform
go
ahead
and
let
your
existing
uniform
that
you
have
with
the
team
members
come
on
over,
so
that
everything
looks
pretty
natural
to
the
community,
all
right,
we're
not
looking
at
going
ahead
and
moving
crossing
guards
and
at
two
different
locations,
they've
made
great
relationships
and
that
with
the
community,
we
do
not
want
to
change
that.
Do
not
want
to
disrupt
the
students.
AC
AE
In
that
training
piece,
will
you
be
doing
training
here?
I,
don't
know
where
your
headquartered
but
I
think
about
again
the
crossing
guards
in
there,
my
house,
their
retirees,
I,
don't
know
what
they
do.
The
majority
of
the
day
will
you
be
coming
here
to
train
at
a
convenient
time
and
location
for
them?
We.
AC
Are
going
to
do
everything
we
need
to
do
in
the
city
of
Evanston?
We
are
not
going
to
ask
them
to
go
ahead
and
come
to
any
of
our
branch
locations,
so
we
will
work
with
the
city
with
the
parking
division
to
get
a
location
so
that
we
can
do
our
onboarding.
We
can
do
our
training.
We
can
do
all
that
type
of
work
locally.
All
right
do
not
definitely
do
not
want
to
go
ahead
and
have
them
go
any
further
than
they
have
to
I
want
to
be
a
service
to
them.
A
AE
Have
a
question
we
just
approved
in
one
year:
correct:
no.
A
You
were
and
I
album
to
Fleming
were
you
and
I?
Okay,
alright,
so
the
agreement
for
the
crossing
guards
with
Andy
frame
Services
Incorporated
passes.
He
haven't
since
City
Council
on
an
eight
to
one
vote
all
right.
Thank
you.
Thank
you
very
much.
Thank
you
for
coming
out
and
speaking
the
city
manager.
Let's
go
and
move
forward,
I'd
like
to
do
a
discussion
on
the
budget,
which
is
item
number
thirty-six
resolution
101
our
eighteen
fiscal
year,
budget
of
the
of
the
city
of
Evanston-
and
this
is
this-
is
for
action.
Is
there
a?
A
AF
Was
it
was
a
kind
of
a
I'll
call
for
a
winner
preliminary
matter?
A
number
of
people
spoke
on
the
youth
and
young
adult
division
and
I
think
the
city
manager
is
already
kind
of
laid
out.
The
fact
that
there
aren't
going
to
be
changes
I
think
maybe
will
be
constructive
for
the
community
to
just
know.
You
know
that
it's
fully
funded
sure
and
exactly
how
things
are
gonna
proceed
so
that
there
is
no.
You
know,
there's
a
lot
of
confusion
out
there
yeah,
so
he
terrific.
A
Yeah
I
think
yes,
so
city
manager,
if
you
can
go
through
I,
know,
you've
made
changes
and
it's
in
our
it's
in
our
packet.
If
that,
if
that
could
be
shown
since
the
last
since
our
last
meeting
hit
on
those
two
points
and
then
at
we'd
also
I
think
would
be
helpful
to
have
you
possibly
have
your
health
department
director
come
up
and
let's
have
a
conversation
about
Victim
Services.
Since
that's
been
discussed
quite
a
bit
tonight
and.
E
Alderman
Wilson
asked
about
youth
in
adult
I
did
provide
the
city
council
an
email
today
over
the
last
couple
of
weeks
have
really
listened
to.
The
members
of
community
have
had
an
opportunity
to
talk
with
many
of
you
all
thank
halls.
Andrew
Simmons,
specifically
for
a
really
helping
helping
me
sort
through
what's
best
for
the
community,
have
talked
with
other
members
of
the
council
and
what
I
shared
with
the
council
this
afternoon
was
an
email
indicating
that
I
believe
that
at
this
point
it
makes
sense
to
leave
mr.
E
Brown,
the
Community
Services
Manager
and
the
youth
in
an
adult
division,
as
is
at
least
through
the
middle
part
of
next
year.
In
the
email,
I
talked
about
a
initiative
that
our
deputy
city
manager,
Kimberly
Richardson,
has
begun.
Last
June
June
of
2018.
Let's
look
at
all
of
our
social
services
functions
and
I'm,
going
to
ask
that
she
continue
this
process.
Look
at
the
issues
of
workforce
as
part
of
that
evaluation
and
then
come
back
to
me
no
later
than
June
1
with
her
analysis.
E
So
the
you
think
an
adult
division
again
was
never
part
of
this
budget.
It
was
never
going
to
be
reduced
all
of
the
employees
doing
that
could
work
we're
going
to
continue
to
do
that.
Good
work
I
want
to
make
that
very
clear
from
the
outset,
but
certainly
given
the
community
dialogue,
given
the
concern
of
some
staff
members
I
really
thought
that
it
was
the
best
for
the
community
to
put
this
forward
into
the
larger
review
of
social
services,
so
that
information
was
provided
that
the
councils
provide
you,
the
impacted
staff
members
earlier
today.
E
Let's
go
now
to
the
budget,
balancing
worksheet
miss
Louise
Lincoln.
There
are
some
revisions
to
that.
If
you
will
look
at
your
agenda
packet
on
page
269
and
we'll
also
put
it
up
on
the
screen
for
you
in
green
are
those
changes
that
were
shared
last
week
at
the
discussion,
so
the
changes
that
that
are
new
to
the
the
budget,
balancing
worksheets
are
those
in
blue,
so
we
could
move
into
the
parking
area.
E
The
council
had
asked
that
we
move
forward
with
adding
to
parking
enforcement
officers
that
has
been
included
here
in
the
budget
balancing
worksheet.
We
have
taken
the
increase
to
revenue
down
from
400,000
to
300,000.
We
want
to
be
prudent
that
that
we
are
realistic
about
the
impact
the
parking
enforcement
officers
would
have
with
with
tickets
and
fines.
Next,
we
had
talked
about
it
change
last
week
that
we
were
playing
and
implementing
regarding
street
sweeping
eliminating,
in
most
cases,
the
tow.
E
We
believe
that
the
changes
associated
with
that
will
allow
us
to
generate
an
additional
three
hundred
thousand
dollars
in
revenue
and
will
not
impact
the
dollars
that
our
residents
are
paying
the
mr.
Li,
please
correct
me
if
I'm
speaking
incorrectly,
so
that
those
dollars
are
not
will
not
impact
the
residents.
It
merely
changes
the
allocation
of
her
that
money
goes
so
the
tow,
but
the
tow
being
eliminated.
E
Instead,
most
of
those
dollars
come
back
to
the
city
through
the
through
the
ticket
itself,
so
we
discussed
that
with
the
council
and
given
some
of
the
other
changes,
we've
gone
ahead
and
added
that
to
the
budget.
Balancing
worksheet
for
the
bottom
of
the
sheet
is
an
issue
regarding
the
reimbursement
of
electric
and
telecommunications
taxes
to
district
65
and
district
202.
We
have
been
doing
that.
E
Historically,
we
also
provide
a
reimbursement
of
a
gas
natural
gas
taxes
which
are
mandated
under
state
law
rather
than
eliminate
that
reimbursement
we're
proposing
that
that
reimbursement
we've
got
approximately
in
half
to
reflect
the
conversations
that
I've
had
with
the
two
school
superintendents.
We
have
a
long
history
of
sharing
resources
between
a
district,
65
district
202
in
the
city
and
I
think,
in
the
spirit
of
that
wanted
to
make
that
adjustment
just
to
be
half
versus
the
full
dollar
round.
E
Police
Department,
so
we've
gone
through
the
fire
department
again
are
looking
not
to
make
any
changes
as
far
as
fire
station
four.
That
will
continue
all
those
or
discussed
at
the
last
meeting,
the
reorganization
of
park
staff
we've
gone
back
and
looked
at
those
numbers
and
had
made
a
$50,000
change,
they're
decreasing
the
savings
from
one
hundred
sixty
three
thousand
two
hundred
and
thirteen
thousand.
E
So
with
that
mr.
Merz,
the
council,
that
gives
us
a
balanced
budget
with
a
surplus
of
two
hundred
forty
two
thousand
dollars
I
think
we
have
largely
addressed
the
issues
that
have
been
raised
of
concerned.
The
issues
with
victim
advocates
were
prepared
to
talk
about
further
director.
Thomas
Smith
is
here
and
can
give
an
overview,
but
before
she
gets
up
and
if
we
could
just
answer,
if
there's
any
questions
about
anything
else,
yeah.
E
So
we
added
last
week
a
management
analyst
position.
That's
actually
now
a
senior
management
analyst
position
in
talking
with
director,
Thomas,
Smith
I,
think
I'll.
Let
her
speak
as
well
that
if
it
was
going
to
be
a
management
analyst,
she
asked
them
to
be
a
senior
management
analyst
in
order
to
be
able
to
attract
a
higher
skill
set
as
that
I
really.
M
A
AD
Don't
have
a
question
I'm
wondering
I
asked
the
question
about
the
entertainment
/
amusement
tax
last
week
and
was
told
it's
at
4%
for
only
for
profit
operations
such
as
century
theater
space.
Those
kind
of
places
for
four
entities
contribute
to
that
fund.
I
would
like
to
move
that
we
raise
that
to
5%,
in
other
words,
at
a
percentage
I,
don't
think
anybody
going
to
the
theater
is
going
to
notice
it.
People
who
get
into
entertainment
need
to
support
the
arts
and
I
think
it's
one
good
way
to
support
the
arts
by
taxing
the
arts.
AD
AD
We
probably
wouldn't
be
able
to
do
it
for
a
year,
but
I
certainly
hope
we
could
impose
the
tax
and
collect
it.
Perhaps,
for
three-quarters
of
the
year,
I
think
there
should
be
a
two
and
a
half
percent
amusement
tax
on
all
live
theatre
in
the
city
of
Evanston.
That
is
not
church-run,
district,
65
or
district
202
run.
Everybody
else
needs
to
contribute
to
the
Arts.
In
addition
to
providing
us
with
entertainment.
AD
Those
of
us
who
attend
those
events
I
believe,
will
pay
a
two
and
a
half
percent
tax,
so
I'm
going
to
move
an
increase
in
the
for
profit
by
one
percent
and
add
to
regular,
live
performances
of
any
kind,
and
the
list
is
in
there.
It's
an
ABC
list
and
I've
sent
a
memo
to
everybody.
Regarding
this
I,
don't
know
what
the
two
and
a
half
percent
will
generate,
but
it'll
be
a
few
dollars
I'm
certain
and
we
were
told
that
40,000
would
be
generated
by
the
one
percent
added
to
theatre
tickets
and
for-profit
performances.
D
A
E
AD
Pursue
two
and
a
half
percent
on
the
price
of
the
ticket
and
an
increase
of
one
percent,
in
other
words
from
4%
to
5%,
on
the
for-profit,
entertainment
tax,
yes,
and
that
tax
is
the
4%
is
currently
being
collected
on
the
price
of
the
ticket.
Is
that
not
correct
or
on
there
I
saw
where
it's
on
their
on
their
IRS
forms?
That's
how
we
get
that
number
and.
A
We've
got
a
lot
of
things
in
the
budget
and
I
think
there's
going
to
be
potentially
a
lot
of
ideas,
so
I
I've
got
a
motion
and
I
got
a
second
on
that
motion
and
I,
don't
know
protic
protocol
wise.
Can
we
move
on
to
another
topic,
gave
him
two
income
I'm
sorry
I
have
to
I,
have
to
vote.
I
have
to
vote
on
this
okay.
So
let
me
I've
got
a
whole
bunch
of
the
lights
and
they
could
be
on
different
topics.
So.
A
AE
AD
Here's
what
I'm
asking
I'm
asking
for
the
1%
and
I'm
asking
for
the
two
and
a
half
percent
to
be
imposed-
probably
three
quarters
of
the
year-
in
other
words
starting
in
March,
so
because
we
don't
have
the
numbers.
I
can't
argue
adding
that
to
the
budget
right
now:
okay,
but
the
1%,
but
I
am
really
really
enthusiastic
about
the
two
and
a
half
percent,
because
you
know
we
charge
people
extra
to
cover
the
cost
of
garbage
for
those
who
have
their
garbage
collected
and
I.
AD
A
AH
AH
But
it's
it's
a
narrow
margin
and
they
have
really
been
an
economic
engine.
Here
in
Evanston,
I
know
people
who
go
to
space
who
live
in
Oak
Park
who
live
in
Highland
Park,
who
people
who
travel
from
Wisconsin
and
Michigan
becomes
the
axe
there
and
they
stay
in
in
in
Evanston
I.
Don't
want
them
to
close
their
doors
and
decide
to
move
down
to
Chicago,
which
is
only
a
mile
and
a
half
away
from
their
current
location.
I
want
them
to
stay
there
and
bring
people
to
our
restaurants
and
our
hotels
and
then
I.
AH
AH
The
arts
community
did
ask
to
have
some
kind
of
coordinator
for
these
arts
programs.
I
think
the
city
manager
has
has
indicated
to
us,
though
there
will
be
a
staff
person
who
coordinates
these
arts
programs
I.
Don't
think
that
either
of
these
increases
are
necessary
in
this
budget
and
I,
don't
support
them.
AF
Wilson
and
Braithwaite
and
Winton
covered
most
of
the
points
is
in
addition
for
the
small
operators
and
the
not-for-profits
there's
also
going
to
be
cost
associated
with
collecting
the
tax
and
remitting
the
tax.
A
lot
of
these
groups,
they're
small
they're,
small
operators-
they
are
barely
getting
by
but
they're,
going
to
need
more
people
that
are
probably
gonna
have
to
volunteer
to.
You
know
manage
this
bookkeeping
stuff
and
back
to
the
competitive
point.
AF
We
also
have
a
six
percent
tax
on
alcohol,
so
some
of
these
venues
that
are
serving
alcohol-
if
you
you
know,
you've
got
the
six
percent
on
the
alcohol.
You've
got
the
sales
tax
on
other
things.
You've
got.
You
know
another
five
percent
on
tickets,
so
if
it
goes
from
four
to
five,
it's
it's
just
consistently
increasing
that
differential,
and
you
know
we're
gonna
hit
a
point
where
you
know
we
having
a
place
on
the
other
side
of
Howard
is
gonna.
It's
going
to
start
to
make
more
sense
than
keeping
it
on
this
side.
Well,.
AE
I
I'm
not
huge
on
taxes,
I
appreciate
ottoman,
Rainey's
creativity.
What
I
will
say
in
terms
of
this
tax
or
a
tax
in
general,
is
that
we've
sat
here
for
the
last
several
months.
The
city
manager
brought
us
a
very
difficult
budget.
People
in
the
community
voiced
their
concerns.
We've
put
almost
everything
back
on
the
table
and
essentially
you
know
again:
alderman
Rainey
brought
up
the
real
estate
transfer
tax.
AE
Thankfully,
that
passed
I
would
have
liked
to
see
that
pass
and
put
money
into
the
fordable
housing
fund,
but
we're
not
doing
that
and
then
we
are
raising
property
taxes,
which
you
know
is
what
it
is.
But
I
think
I'm
saying
this
to
say
we
have
sat
here.
We
have,
you
know
essentially
put
the
budget
back
to
where
it
was.
We
went
back
and
forth
over
fifty
cents
and
a
quarter
at
parking
spaces
and
and
I
guess.
I.
AE
Just
am
a
little
frustrated
that
we
want
to
save
everything
we
want
to
have
everything,
but
we're
not
sure
how
we're
going
to
pay
for
everything.
So
at
some
point,
I
guess
next
year
in
the
budget
process,
we
have
to
just
be
a
little
more
realistic.
I
understand
that
people
don't
want
to
tax
this
kind
of
thing,
but
you
know
I
feel
like
it's
worthwhile.
If
you
go
into
the
theater,
you
believe
in
the
theater
you
want
the
arch
you,
the
arts,
coordinator,
money,
doesn't
grow
on
trees.
We
have
to
pay
for
it.
Somehow.
AE
If
we're
going
to,
you
know,
answer
and
be
responsive
to
what
our
citizens
say
they
want,
and
so,
if
I
believe
in
the
theater
I
believe
in
arts
I
go
to
the
theater,
I
pay,
the
two
bucks
or
whatever.
It
is
because
I
understand
that
it's
going
towards
something
that
I
believe
in
versus
taxing.
You
know.
The
entire
citizen
base,
2%
and
I
know
that
some
people
are
not
gonna,
be
able
to
afford
that
2%
and
so
I,
just
I
guess
when
I
encourage
us
to.
E
AE
Know,
if
not
be
creative
about
how
we're
going
to
find
money
to
really
be
a
little
more
realistic
about
where
we're
gonna
cut
and
where
we're
gonna
put
things
back
on
the
budget
that
we
have
to
pay
for
it.
Somehow
Thank.
AD
Listening
to
alderman
Wynn,
who
mentioned,
or
somebody
mentioned,
6%
liquor,
tax,
I
remember
when
we
first
put
a
liquor
tax
on
nobody
was
going
to
come
to
the
city
of
Evanston.
Nobody
would
ever
open
a
bar
here.
Nobody
would
ever
do
this.
Nobody
would
ever
do
that,
and
you
know
our
liquor.
Tax
saves
the
day
now
I
mean,
and
you
have
to
beat
these
restaurants
away
with
the
stick
to
keep
them
out
of
town.
Everybody
wants
a
liquor
license.
Our
mayor's
have
been
very
generous
with
the
liquor
licenses.
We're
doing
great.
AD
If
you
put
another
percent
on
a
forty
dollar
ticket
at
space,
it's
gonna
cost
you
forty
more
sense,
I'm
sitting
in
Union,
paying
15
bucks
for
six
ounces
of
cheap
wine
and
I'm
going
to
complain
about
the
40
cents,
really
I
really
I.
How
can
we
sit
here
and
say
we're
going
to
have
an
or
Arts
coordinator,
but
we're
firing
our
Victim
Services
people?
It
doesn't
make
sense
to
me.
We
should
do
both
if
we're
a
city,
that's
so
liveable.
We
should
do
both.
Thank.
A
AD
We
do
both
is.
We
have
revenue
generated
that
is
not
regressive.
That's
not
going
after
the
little
guy
who's
got
to
have
his
garbage
collected,
but
yet
we're
raising
that
and
nobody's
complaining
about
it,
because
it's
covering
the
cost
of
a
service
to
some
extent.
That's
what
I'm
asking
you
to
do
here.
Thank.
A
You
alderman
Rainey
called
him
in
Bertha,
okay,
so
the
there
was
a
motion
again.
This
will
be
to
direct
the
city
manager,
because
he'd
have
to
put
an
ordinance
together
and
everything
to
increase
the
existing
amusement
tax
from
4%
to
5%
and
to
apply
a
new
amusement
tax
of
two
and
a
half
percent
to
actually.
A
H
AH
H
AD
I'm
embarrassed
to
say
that
I
missed
a
charge
in
the
recycling
increases
it's
a
it's
a
more
or
less
affine
on
people
who
are
city
collects
recycling
from
they
look
in
the
can
and
there's
you
know
something
that
shouldn't
be
in
there
and
so
we're
gonna
start
we're
gonna
charge
I
guess
maybe
we
have
been
charging
I,
don't
know
$25
per
person
for
any
any
illegal
items
in
their
recycling
camp.
I
would
like
to
move
to
strike.
AD
That
I
think
it's
supposed
to
raise
like
forty
thousand
dollars
or
something
because
there
is
not
one
person
in
the
city
who
has
a
blue
can
who
is
not
going
to
get
fined,
because
if
our,
if
our
people
are
going
to
administer
this
and
do
the
investigations
equally,
they
are
always
going
to
find
a
can.
That
has
something
dumped
in
it
by
somebody
else
that
the
the
person
who
owns
a
can
cannot
possibly
cannot
possibly
keep
an
eye
on
that.
A
AI
Evening,
Dave
stomach
Public,
Works,
Director
staff
put
this
in
the
the
current
ordinance.
The
way
it
was
written
is
that
it
would
be
a
special
pick-up
charge
that
would
be
assessed
to
him,
so
it's
currently
$60
and
in
the
proposed
ordinance
it
would
go
to
honored
dollars.
So
we
didn't
think
that
that
was
appropriate.
So
we
came
up
with
the
$25.
AI
The
type
of
contamination
that
we're
talking
about
is
for
when
people
throw
pumpkins
into
the
recycling
can't
when
people
constantly
put
their
recycling
materials
in
a
garbage
plastic
bag
that
isn't
a
recyclable
material
or
for
other
residents
that
continually
put
other
plastics
and
if
that
is
not
recyclable
type
of
material.
We
understand
that.
There's
a
the
potential
to
have
somebody
else,
throw
something
in
your
recycling
cart.
AI
But
what
we're
concerned
about
is
that
now
an
employee
has
to
pull
the
pumpkin
out
that
if
the
plastic
bag
is
is
all
the
recycling
materials
in
the
plastic
bag,
we
have
to
tear
the
plastic
bag
open
and
dump
it
out.
So
we
try
to
educate
residents
about
what
the
proper
recycling
materials
are.
We've
there's
stickers
on
the
carts
this
past
summer.
We
targeted
an
area
where
we
had
the
summer.
AI
Youth
kids
go
around
and
hand
out
notices,
put
stickers
on
carts
again
to
try
to
remind
residents
what
is
the
appropriate
material
to
go
in
a
recycling,
cart
and
that's
what
we
set.
This
proposed
collection
fee
for
not
for
the
incidental
somebody
threw
something
in
one
time,
but
we
have
repeat
offenders
that
continually
do
not
recycle
materials
appropriately.
We
spoken
to
them.
They
just
continue
to
do
it,
so
we
were
hoping
to
have
some
type
of
charge
that
we
could
do
them
after
you
can't
get
them
to
cooperate.
I
think
it's
appropriate
to
have
time.
AD
You
should
just
take
away
their
can
just
take
it
away
if
there
are
that
abusive,
because
I
cannot
believe
that
you're
not
gonna
find
if
you
administer
this
program
fairly
and
you
look
in
inspect,
every
can
you're
gonna
find
errant
items
in
those
cans
and
there's
nothing
in
the
ordinance
that
says.
You're
gonna
be
very
careful
about
who
you
find.
E
E
Number
all
been
arranged
members
of
the
council.
It
is
an
issue
that
we
have
with
the
contamination.
I
mean
we
the
what
happens
is
that
then
any
material
that
is
included
in
these
bags
is
not
recycled
as
becomes
garbage,
and
so
that
is
a
challenge
for
us.
So
if
you,
if
you
think
this
fee
is
not
incorrect,
I
don't
know
that
pulling
people's
carts.
Certainly
that
would
have
an
impact,
although
we
would
probably
need
to
hire
a
few
additional
staff
members.
E
Just
given
the
widespread
nature
of
the
contamination
of
our
recycling
streams,
so
I
think
again,
we
have
fines
for
many
many
things
in
this
community.
We
I
think
generally
prove
ourselves
pretty
judicious
when
dealing
with
code
enforcement.
This
is
a
really,
in
essence,
a
form
of
code
enforcement
that
we
need
to
keep
the
recycle
stream
a
clean
to
the
greatest
extent
possible.
E
AG
Effective
spirits
so
I
have
a
quick
question.
Slash
concert,
so
my
concern
is
you've
only
identified
one
month,
one
day
as
an
example,
so
I'm,
hoping
that
there
are
more
examples
out
there.
But
my
understanding-
and
you
know
please
enlighten
me
and
other
members
of
the
council-
we
ship
our
recycling
outside
of
Evanston
right.
AG
I'm
gonna
make
an
assumption.
I
could
be
completely
wrong,
but
we
take
art,
they
pick
up
all
over
town
and
when
they
take
our
recycling
wherever
it
goes,
I'm
assuming
there
are
other
municipalities
that
send
their
recycling
to
the
same
location.
Right,
that's
correct,
yes,
sir!
So
when
my
recycling
goes
into
the
big,
can
I
and
I
don't
see
it
every
day,
but
I
don't
see
someone
playing
around
in
the
can
they
just
pick
up
the
can
poop
it
goes
into
the
truck
and
then
away.
AG
AI
Is
correct
what
we
are
trying
to
do
is
to
get
proper
recycling
materials
placed
in
the
recycling
cart,
and
it's
not
just
the
pumpkins,
but
it's
it's
a
daily.
Every
week,
people
are
using
regular
plastic
glad
trash
cans,
so
our
bags
to
put
the
recycling
in
with
that
glad
trash
bag
and
it's
not
a
recyclable
material,
and
we
would
like
to
try
to
correct
people's
habits
on
doing
that,
and
we
have
attempted
to
do
it
by
putting
out
the
notices
and
talking
to
them.
Yeah.
AG
I
I
guess
I
would
filter.
My
comments
by
this
sounds
like
something
that
we
want
to
do
a
little
bit
more
education
with
our
residents
partnering
with
our
environmental
community
and
organizations
versus
assessing
these
fines
that
don't
necessarily
tie
back
to
the
city
in
any
way,
especially
because
the
stuff
is
just
leaving
our
town
and
being
sorted
with
a
bunch
of
other
municipalities.
That's
just
my
opinion.
I'm
not
gonna,
be
support.
I'm,
sorry,
alderman,
Rainey,
I'm,
gonna
support
you
on
on
this
one.
Okay,.
AF
You
know
it's
it's
not
that
hard,
so
you
know,
and
and
I
see
this
kind
of
stuff,
you
know
they
and
our
staff
sees
they
dump
the
cart
and
they
see
a
bunch
of
white
bags
with
stuff
in
it.
Stuff
is
not
supposed
to
be
in
a
white
bag
in
the
recycling.
Cart.
There's
a
picture
on
every
cart
that
they
passed
out
and
the
thing
that
you
know
the
again.
We
have
fines
for
lots
of
different
things,
but
this
thing
actually
costs
money.
AF
So
we're
paying
money
for
this
service
and
when
the
stuff
is
contaminated,
it
costs
money
to
deal
with
the
contamination.
It
costs
money
to
dig
the
plastic
bags
out
of
the
sorting
equipment.
You
know
it
puts
people
physically
at
risk
to
do
the
tasks
themselves.
So
you
know
people
have
had
enough
time
to
figure
it
out.
So
you
know
I'm
sure.
AF
If
there's
a
Styrofoam
cup
in
the
card,
they're
not
gonna,
write
that
up
I
can't
imagine
that's
thing,
but
it's
the
card
that
every
week
that
has
its
full
of
you
know
glad
trash
bags
that
were
full
of
you
know.
You
know
liquids
and
that's
ruining
the
recyclable
materials
you
go
to
Europe
and
it's
other
countries,
and
it's
it's
it's
so
simple.
There
are
these
things
on
the
street.
AF
AF
So
if
we're
not
getting
the
compliance,
I
think
we
need
to
just
take
a
little
bit
more
of
a
step,
and
even
if
it's
just
you
know
the
newspaper,
writing
it
up
and
say:
oh
you're
gonna
get
this
fine
and
he
gets
people
to
think
about
it.
So
be
it,
but
we
have
to
really
start
like
walking
the
walk.
You
know
we
can't
be
this
arrogant
little
we're
too
precious
to
you,
know,
sort
our
recycling.
Let's
just
do
it
right.
It's
a
simple
thing:
Thank
You,
Ellen,
Wilson,
ultimate.
A
AJ
Like
the
idea
that
we're
too
precious
Alden
Wilson
but
I,
don't
think
I,
don't
think
we
are
I
agree
with
alderman
Rainey
that
this.
This
is
a
problem
that
I
I
think
we
should
take
some
steps
in
between
before
we
start
fining,
so
the
the
stickers
that
aren't
removable
the
penalty
stickers
or
the
you're
doing
something
wrong
stickers
that
used
to
go
on
garbage
cans.
For
example.
AJ
AJ
Okay,
they
they
won't
pick
it
up.
I
keep
my
recycling
bin
in
my
back
yard,
because
I
don't
want
big
stuff
into
it,
but
I
also
when
my
good
husband
walks
out
with
a
pizza
box
who
that
he
fully
intends
to
put
in
the
recycling
and
it
is,
it
has
oil
in
it.
It's
going
to
be
rejected
and
I'm
opening
us
up
for
a
twenty
five
dollar.
Fine
I.
Just
don't
think
that
I,
don't
think!
That's
where
we
want
to
go
right
now.
AJ
I
much
prefer
an
education,
outreach
and
I
know:
we've
passed
things
out,
I
know
the
stickers.
I've
read
the
stickers
and
the
recycling
bin,
but
I
just
don't
think
this
is
going
to
going
to
be
helpful.
I
I
would
hope
that
those
stickers
will
say
we're
not
coming
back
to
pick
up
your
recycling
until
you've
removed
all
of
the
plastic,
because
I
think
it
was
helped
in
the
past
when
the
guys
picking
up
the
garbage
would
write
a
personal
note
on
there
saying
we're
not
picking
up.

West.
Those
are
the
two
areas
where
we
have
the
the
most
non-compliance.
AK
E
Mr.
memmer
is
the
council
I.
Think
we've
appreciate
the
the
comments
from
the
council.
We'll
come
back,
I'd
like
to
withdraw
this.
This
is
will
be
revenue
to
the
solid
waste
fund
will
come
back
after
the
first
year.
Kumar
Jensen
I
think
needs
to
be
a
part
of
this
discussion
and
also
representatives
from
Groot
and
Swank
I.
Think
there's
larger
issues
here
that,
rather
than
try
to
cover
all
of
them
tonight,
you
know
we
really
are
part
of
special
districts,
the
solid
waste
agency,
Ventura
County.
We
have
responsibilities
to
provide
a
stream.
E
That's
clean
I
think
it
would
be
useful
to
take
more
time
to
go
through
what
efforts
we've
gone
through.
The
past
have
representatives
from
Swank
and
Groote
here
to
talk
further
about
this,
so
mr.
mayor
will
withdraw
that
will
make
the
necessary
changes
to
the
to
the
budget
approval
documents,
$40,000,
so
I
think
we
would
need
to
remove
revenue
from
the
solid
waste
fund
of
$40,000.
So
when
we
come
to
the
approval
of
the
budget
resolution
will
have
that
dollar
amount
ready.
Okay,.
AL
Just
wanted
to
add
that
both
of
those
areas
you
seem
to
have
identified
the
problem
areas
that
outreach
could
have
been
simple
and
it's
overdue,
so
they
actually
both
happen
to
be
in
the
5th
Ward.
That's
the
east
side
and
the
west
side
of
the
fifth
Ward
I'm,
your
welcome
and
I'm,
asking
that
the
appropriate
staff
come
to
our
work
meetings
and
give
proper
education
on
that
sure.

The
the
contaminated
stuff
does
go
to
the
landfill,
but
one
of
the
reasons
cago
is
still
profitable
in
recycling
is
that
there
is
a
glass
company
in
Chicago
that
will
take
recycling
class.
There's
lots
of
communities
in
the
United
States,
where
they
don't
even
collect
glass
anymore,
because
they
don't,
they
don't
have
a.
They
can't
resell
it
to
anybody.
So,
in
the
Chicagoland
area
at
least,
there's
that
resource
that
will
take
the
use
glass
and
make
more
glass.
A
E
Director
Thomas
Smith
is
here
and
Yvonne
that
perhaps
the
maybe
the
best
course
would
be
to
back
up
a
little
bit
and
and
talk
about
the
work
that
has
been
done
over
the
last
year.
Since
the
the
staff
moved
to
the
health
department.
Also
talk
a
little
bit
about
our
ability
to
staff
all
the
positions
as
well
as
what
we
have
done
to
deal
with
victims
of
sexual
assaults
and
handle
that
so
sure.
AM
Good
evening
Ivana
Thomas
Smith
director
healthy
Human
Services.
It's
why
Lee
mentioned
the
victim
services
was
transitioned
over
to
Health
and
Human
Services
in
January,
and
at
that
time
we
were
recruiting
to
fill
the
two
part-time
positions
and
we
were
not
successful
in
getting
good
candidates
to
feel
those
two
part-time
positions,
and
so
we
reposted
the
two
part-time
positions
into
a
full-time
position
and
advertised
and
recruited
for
that
as
well
and
did
not
get
an
adequate
candidate
pool.
AM
We
had
community
members
with
myself
and
staff
to
interview
for
that
position
and
just
was
not
successful
in
filling
that
vacancy,
and
so
the
director
of
domestic
violence
services
from
the
YWCA
was
a
panel
participant
and
at
that
time
shared
our
dilemma
with
Karen
singer,
the
CEO
and
president
of
the
YWCA.
Also
simultaneously,
the
chief
reached
back
out
to
me
learning
me
that
24/7
24
hour
seven
days
a
week,
coverage
needed
to
be
restored
because
the
chaplains
who
were
providing
that
24
hour
service
really
could
not
provide.
AM
They
felt
the
adequate
support
that
victims
needed,
and
so
with
the
dilemma
of
the
police
department
feeling
the
24
hour.
Seven,
seven,
seven,
seven
day
a
week
coverage
was
not
adequate.
We
were
still
trying
to
recruit
and
fill
the
position.
Karen
singer
reached
out
to
me
and
said
that
they
have
been
providing
domestic
violence
services
in
the
community
since
1985
and
have
always
felt
that
it
was
a
duplication
of
services.
They
have
been
the
experts
in
this
area
in
the
North
Shore.
AM
Karen
seems
to
feel
that
she
can
do
the
same
service
that
she's
doing
in
her
organization.
Now,
for
half
of
what
we're
paying
and
there's
a
myth
in
the
community
that
she's
heard
repeatedly
that
they
don't
serve
as
men
and
currently
10%
of
their
patient
or
client
population
are
men,
so
they
do
service
anyone
that
comes
to
their
doors.
They
provide
24-hour
crisis
intervention.
They
do
also
provide
Court,
advocacy
and
they've
been
doing
court
advocacy
for
about
18
years,
and
so
because
of
our
fiscal
dilemma.
AM
It
just
made
sense
to
investigate
the
possibility
of
the
YWCA
providing
the
same
similar
service.
She
was
clear
in
stating
that
it's
domestic
violence,
domestic
battery
in
court
advocacy
that
the
death
notifications
they
could
not.
They
don't
have
the
capacity
to
do
that
and
so
I
have
offered
our
social
workers
and
Human
Services
Division
of
our
department
to
provide
that
service
in
support
of
the
police
officers
to
provide
death
notifications
in
Deer
and
I
have
done
that
since
the
course
of
the
victim
services
has
been
moved
to
January.
AM
We've
experienced
actually
doing
Death
Note
notifications
as
recent
as
Friday,
and
they
are
also
concerned
that
they
would
not
be
able
to
provide
the
mental
health
services.
But,
as
you
know,
we
have
a
contractual
relationship
with
presidents
behavioral
health.
There
hasn't
been
a
successful
relationship
for
the
past
four
years
and
we
want
to
make
sure
that
we
can
continue
to
do
that.
AM
Warm
handoff
to
that
service
provider,
so
I
would
be
responsible
for
overseeing
the
contractual
relationship
to
make
sure
that
the
YWCA
could
honor
their
investment
in
this
endeavor
as
I
do
with
the
president's
behavioral
health.
So
I
am
the
department
liaison
to
the
staff
at
presents.
Behavioral
health,
the
social
worker
in
the
library
and
I
would
do
that
same
commitment
for
the
YWCA.
If
this
counsel
so
desires
to
go
into
a
contractual
relationship
did
I
cover
everything
you
did.
A
AM
From
what
I've
learned
following
their
organization,
they
are
the
go-to
provider
in
the
North
Shore
area.
They
also
provide
the
40-hour
domestic-violence
training,
that's
required
by
each
individual.
That
provides
the
service.
They
are
one
of
the
largest
service
providers.
Providing
the
training
and
I
do
really
support
their
trauma.
AM
Inform
lens,
which
means
not
only
do
they
are
they
intentional
about
interrupting
the
violence,
but
they
also
do
perpetrator
training,
so
they
also
not
only
support
the
victim,
but
also
try
to
interrupt
the
actual
inception
of
violence
through
their
perpetrator,
training
academy,
and
so
because
they
have
such
a
comprehensive
look
at
the
cycle
of
violence.
I
absolutely
support
this
organization
providing
the
service
and.
A
AD
What
I
just
heard
was
just
a
chaotic
mix
of
running
here
running
there
who
do
I
call
where
do
I
call.
What
do
I
do
now?
First
of
all,
I
really
don't
want
to
hear
from
you
vonda
on
this
matter
I.
She
knows
how
much
I
respect
her
work,
but
this
isn't
her
problem.
This
is
a
police
department
located
issue
and
that's
who
we
should
be
hearing
from
we're
about
to
get
a
new
chief.
Any
day
now,
that'll
be
announced
that
we
they're
gonna
hire
a
new
chief.
The
new
chief
will
be
on
the
job.
AD
AD
That's
not
they're,
not
they're,
not
that's,
not
where
their
house
morning
noon
and
night,
unless
that
just
happens
anyway,
so
there's
you're
supervising
them,
but
they're
there
there's
there's.
There
is
all
sorts
of
chaos
created
by
this
by
this
situation
anyway,
I'm
proposing
that
we
leave
the
keep
the
victim
advocates
in
the
police
department.
Let
the
new
chief
make
these
decisions,
and
just
as
we're
doing
with
Kevin
Brown
and
the
youth
and
adult
services
young
adult
services,
let's
get
a
report
by
June
2019.
AD
Is
this
a
valuable
service
and
are
we
handling
it
efficiently
and
is
it
productive
in
the
police
department?
If
not,
let's
say
right
now,
if
not
June
19,
when
we
get
that
when
we
get
that
the
results
of
that
observation
by
the
chief
and
his
people
well,
they
will
know
now
that
in
June,
if
this
is
not
working,
they
will
be
let
go.
But
for
now
with
the
new
chief
coming
on
this
should
not
be
happening.
AD
It
should
not
be
happening
so
I'm
gonna
suggest,
if
nothing
else,
we
put
in
two
full-time
salaries
for
six
months
in
our
budget
and
let
people
have
you
know
their
service.
It's
so
important.
We
heard
tonight
from
at
least
one
person
who's
been
served
by
them.
I
went
to
court
for
one
solid
year
where
an
advocate
was
in
that
courtroom
with
the
family
who's
whose
brother
his
brother
had
been
beaten
to
death
on
Howard
Street,
and
it
meant
more
to
them
than
anything
and
I.
Do
not
I
mean
I
like
Karen
singer,
it's
fabulous.
AD
AE
So
my
concern
is
well.
You
know
we
move
this.
We
had
a
very
long
discussion.
You
know
you
were
you
were
participated
as
much
and
you
were
inherited
in
this
last
year,
but
we
had
a
very
long
discussion.
Last
year
we
said
it's
going
to
be
the
same.
We're
gonna
have
coverage,
nothing's,
gonna
change
and
it's
you
know.
As
you
said,
it's
not
it's
not
all
been
the
same.
AE
We
haven't
been
able
to
find
the
two
extra
workers
your
staff
has
had
to
step
in
and
do
some
things
that
they
weren't
doing
before
you
know,
there's
been
transition
of
where
they're
located
and
the
files
and
whatever
else
so
it
hasn't
been
the
same
and
so
now
to
move
it
again.
I
think
it's
very
disruptive
I
mean
I.
Know.
AE
We've
only
heard
from
one
lady
who
gave
a
personal
testimony,
but
imagine
she's
just
now,
starting
court
we're
gonna,
move
it
somewhere
else,
she's
going
to
get
a
new
person
into
this
three-year
court
battle,
who's
going
to
have
to
come,
get
caught
up
to
speed
and
try
to
support
her
and
not
to
say
that
that
can't
happen,
but
I'm
concerned.
You
know
about
that
type
of
transition.
I'm
also
concerned
that,
and
you
mentioned
you
would
continue
to
do
death
notifications.
AE
It's
very
traumatic
to
someone
and
so
I
have
a
lot
of
concern
with
transition
in
this,
under
the
guise
that
it's
all
going
to
be
the
same,
because
it's
not
going
to
be
the
same
and
I
and
I
appreciate
that
you
you
know:
I've
tried
to
work
with
it.
I
guess
I'm
a
little
bit
confused
as
well.
I
know
I,
didn't
ask
the
representative
from
the
Y
questions
last
week,
but
we
had
this
conversation
last
year.
AE
Karen
singer
was
very
involved
and
I
seem
to
remember
her
saying
you
know
she
wasn't
willing
to
jump
in
I
know
we
weren't
talking
about
contracting,
but
what
I
did
not
hear
from
her
that
we
can
do
this.
We
can
do
it
for
cheaper.
This
is
what
we
do
every
day
and
so
now
that
the
conversation
has
moved
to
contract
the
the
idea
that
they
can
do
this
they
do
it
all
the
time.
AE
It's
a
duplication
of
services,
a
little
puzzled
by
that,
because
that's
not
what
I
heard
last
year
doing
all
the
conversation
so
I
would
support
all
my
rainy
and
leaving
this.
We
do
have
a
lot
of
changes
happen
at
the
police
force.
Maybe
this
you
know,
new
chief
has
experience
that
we
don't
know
about
that.
He
can
or
she
can,
unlike
nuts
as
to
what
they
think
needs
to
happen.
But
you
know
and
I
think
this.
AE
That's
how
the
city
manager
we
met
before
this
is
part
of
the
frustration
that
we
heard
in
the
community
around
the
youth
and
young
adult
we're
saying
it's
going
to
be
the
same.
It's
going
to
be
the
same,
we're
just
going
to
move
people,
and
we
see
now
from
this
year-long
program
that
that
doesn't
always
transition
well,
no
matter
what
our
best
intentions
are.
So
I
would
also
support,
keeping
the
same
people
in
place.
Put
them
in
with
Kimberly
Richardson's
assessment.
AJ
AJ
AM
AM
AM
AM
Sometimes
the
advocates
do
show
up,
and
sometimes
they
connect
with
the
victim
depending
on
the
situation.
It's
all
individual
Karen
has
said-
and
she
said
this
last
year-
that
that
is
not
current
industry
standard-
that
a
person
physically
show
up
in
the
presence
of
law
enforcement
that
actually
it's
not
evidence-based,
but
they
would
reach
out
to
the
victim
and
assure
that
they
had
the
supportive
services
that
they
are
need
of,
and
they
do
that
now
with
victims
that
don't
engage
with
our
Police
Department.
AM
AG
AM
The
advocates
right
now,
the
full-time
advocates,
do
not
provide
after
our
coverage
in
the
past
this
since
January,
when
there's
been
a
need
for
an
advocate
after
hours.
Sometimes
the
police
have
engaged
the
chaplain
and
the
advocates
follow
up
the
next
day
because
they
get
the
referrals
the
next
morning
right
because
they've
gone
from
a
staff
of
five
previously
in
the
police
department
down
to
a
staff
of
two
realistically,
we
did
not
have
the
capacity
to
do
24/7
our
garbage,
and
but
the
need
is
still
there
and.
AG
AG
AM
AG
I'm
clear
on
that,
that's
okay!
I!
Don't
need
to
argue
that,
but-
and
so
the
other
point
that
you
brought
up
is
the
difficulty
in
filling
the
position
so
we're
not
covering
24
hours
and
we're
down
and
I
remember
going
through
the
exercise
of
how
many
full-time
versus
part-time,
so
those
positions
have
remained
vacant
for
the
past.
What
we.
AM
Have
not
filled
initially,
it
started
out
two
part-time
positions.
We
did
not
get
good
candidates
for
that,
and
I
thought
it
was
because
it
was
part-time
without
benefits.
I
thought
it
would
be
more
attractive,
so
I
negotiated
to
take
the
two
part-time
positions
and
make
them
an
FTE
with
benefits
to
be
more
attractive
and
right
when
we
were
gonna
make
an
offer.
This
last
time
we
had
a
hiring
freeze.
AG
One
of
the
things
that
and
I
spoke
to
Karen
also
because
I
had
a
bunch
of
concerns
and
questions
and
myself
Wally
I
can't
remember
if
director
Hemingway
was
here
at
the
time.
But
the
YWCA,
just
as
a
reminder
two
years
ago,
took
on
a
huge
which
I
thought
was
was
a
great
initiative
and
I
was
present
with
about
two
hundred
men
in
a
room
that
they
invited.
AM
AG
Yeah
and
it
was
geared
towards
helping
men,
understand
the
domestic
violence
and
in
really
having
us,
take
responsibility
for
it
as
well.
It
was
extremely
eye-opening
to
all
of
us,
oh
yeah,
you
all
were
y'all
were
there
and
it
sort
of
forced
and
I'll
speak
for
myself,
and
maybe
others
will
share
their
own
stories,
but
really
do
more
than
just
listening.
I
find
myself
in
some
situations:
I,
listen,
but
I.
AG
Don't
really
have
the
tools
to
advocate,
and-
and
it
was
through
that
to
our
daily
meeting,
and
then
there
were
several
community
meetings
that
I
attended
with
city
manager
was
present
and
some
other
folks
that
may
be
excites
is
not
the
good
word
to
use
right
now
this
hour,
but
I
was
encouraged
by
the
fact
that
they're,
actually,
not
only
are
they
dealing
with
the
women
they've
been
doing
that
historically.
But
adding
this
new
dimension
of
also
supporting
and
challenging
and
dealing
with
the
men
is
absolutely.
AM
And
the
unknown
area
that
people
don't
realize
that
ten
percent
of
their
population
have
always
been
men
right,
always
not
a
new
concept
and
they've
always
been
providing
perpetrator,
training
they're,
trying
to
raise
a
deeper
awareness
of
that
domestic
battery
is
not
just
the
victim.
It's
it's
a
complex
system
right
that
we
all
need
to
be
aware
of
yeah.
AG
AM
AG
In
a
very
targeted
approach,
so
when
I
think
of
all
the
things
involved
with
this
contract,
that
is
the
one
factor
that
helps
me
to
look
at
it
in
a
different
way
and
that
for
once,
you're
gonna
have
a
very
balanced
approach.
Not
only
he's
supporting
the
women
being
able
to
provide
that
24-hour
coverage.
I
also
spoke
to
Karen.
She
mentioned
that
her
staff
provides
folks
who
speak
multi
languages
as
well.
Yes,.
AM
E
Of
the
issues
that
I've
just
been
recently
covered,
but
I
think
I
would
take
the
council
back
to
the
discussion
we
had
a
year
ago
and
I
think
that
some
of
the
things
that
director
Thomas
Smith
has
said
are
the
reasons
that
we
decided
to
make.
The
change
is
that
we
have
additional
very
talented
people
within
our
Health
and
Human
Services
Department.
They
have
been
able
to
be
folded
in
to
help
provide
some
of
the
services
that
are
needed
and
I
think
that
was
the
original
thought
is.
E
How
do
we
leverage
the
expertise
we
currently
have
on
staff?
To
do
that?
We've
had
some
challenges
in
hiring
I
mean
that's,
that's
an
unfortunate
thing.
I
think
we
continue
to
look
at
the
positions.
You
know
to
make
sure
that
the
job
descriptions
meet
our
needs,
but
are
also
attractive
to
the
folks
that
are
looking
for
a
job,
but
at
the
same
time
we've
had
the
support
of
endear
Perkins
and
her
staff,
who
also
have
similar
training
to
other
current
victim
advocates
to
leverage
those
those
skills.
E
Those
skills
don't
exist
really
anywhere
in
the
police
department
and
one
of
the
challenges
of
having
this
service
and
the
police
department
has
been.
There
really
hasn't
been
a
bench
because
the
police
officers
come
with
different
skills
and
abilities,
so
I
think.
However,
the
council
lands
on
this.
E
What
you
know,
the
initial
thought
that
we
had
a
year
ago,
I
think
still
very
strong,
and
that
is
let's
leverage
all
of
the
skilled
staff
that
we
have
and
use
them
in
ways
that
make
sense
the
best
serve
the
community
and
I
think
I
can
want
to
compliment
Vonda
and
her
staff
for
really
taking
up
that
challenge
this
year
and
really
making
the
most
of
this.
Given
all
of
the
particular
circumstances
that
have
been
described
tonight,
Thank.
AD
Is
very
wrong
to
in
any
way
imply
that
there
is
anything
negative
here
about
director,
thomas
or
the
YWCA.
The
YWCA
plays
a
certain
role
in
this
community.
They
are
given
lots
of
money
to
provide
grants
to
provide
those
kinds
of
things
that
alderman
Braithwaite
is
talking
about,
and
those
kinds
of
things
should
be
offered
more
and
made
more
known
to
the
community.
However,
however,
we
are,
we
are
making
these
changes
once
again
on
the
backs
of
the
most
vulnerable,
when,
when
I
think
about
using
presents
st.
AD
Francis
Hospital
there
already
being
used
for
the
people
who
need
those
services,
st.
Francis
presence
is
there
serving
them?
That's
why
we
paid
them
started
with
this
payment
that
the
social
worker
and
the
24-hour
hotline
several
years
ago.
That's
why
we
do
it's.
My
understanding
that,
in
addition
to
domestic
violence
calls
there
are,
there
were
600
other
call
outs
so
far
this
year,
that
the
the
YWCA
is
not
going
to
be
able
to
handle.
AD
The
YWCA
should
always
be
there
for
us
and
for
our
victim
advocates,
they're,
not
something
new
or
something
that
can
take
over
everything
there
they're
an
accessory
part
of
this
whole
issue.
Our
victim
advocates
are
better
because
of
them.
In
some
cases
the
this
sexual
assault
group,
I
I,
think
if
we
use
them
some
extent
now
I
guess
we
should
continue
using
them,
but
we
need
these
advocates
local
here
and
the
reason
they
they
can't
go
out
and
in
some
cases
is
they
don't
get
called.
AD
AD
I
will
be
so
disappointed
in
this
council.
If
we
don't
give
our
new
chief
of
police,
whoever
that's
going
to
be
I
know
there
must
have
been
some
issue
with
this
Chief
of
Police
and
this
service,
but
I
think
this
new
Chief
of
Police
ought
to
be
given
an
opportunity
here
to
tell
us
one
way
or
another.
Should
we
keep
victim
advocates
that
we
are
known
for
by
the
way
I
mean
there's
a
history
here:
should
we
keep
them
or
should
we
not?
AD
Let's
make
a
final
decision
in
June
get
rid
of
this
service
or
let's
keep
it
and
enhance
it
one
or
the
other,
but
let's
not
go
through
this
now
this.
This
is
just
the
wrong
time
to
be
doing
this
again
and
I.
You
know
if
they're
back
at
the
police
department,
god
bless
they
need
to
be
there.
There
should
be
a
bench
quote/unquote
there
for
them.
There
should
be
an
office
there.
That's
where
everything
emanates
from
and
I
certainly
hope.
You
all
agree
to
put
in
to
full
salaries
for
six
months,
Thank.
AM
AM
AM
AK
AK
Well,
I
certainly
share
my
colleagues,
admiration
and
appreciation
for
the
YWCA,
and
certainly
also
for
director,
Thomas
Smith
in
really
providing
amazing
services
to
people
who
really
are
needing
them.
I
guess:
we've
heard
a
lot
about
how
we
would
meet
the
needs
of
domestic
violence,
victims,
sexual
assault,
victims,
provide
mental
health
services
and
I
guess
the
death
notifications.
But
what
about
a
straight
violence?
AK
AM
It
so
currently
some
some
of
the
crime
against
person
that
has
created
trauma
where
people
are
just
not
feeling
safe
or
stable.
The
advocates
currently
work
with
the
victims
through
the
police
department,
there's
an
opportunity
that
I
currently
have
staff
that
have
the
same
expertise
that
we
can
leverage.
So
I
would
work
with
the
new
police
chief
to
make
sure
that
people
who
are
traumatized
but
don't
fall
into
those
categories
neatly
would
have
some
support
from
the
social
workers
that
are
in
Health
and
Human
Services.
AM
We
want
to
make
sure
that
no
one
falls
through
the
cracks,
and
so
we
would
work
very
closely
continually
with
our
Police
Department.
To
assure
that
that
support
is
given,
because
again,
that
falls
out
of
the
categories
at
the
white
would
cover
that
presence
will
cover.
But
maybe
someone
is
still
traumatized
needing
additional
support,
so
we
would
make
sure
that
that
happens,
working
with
our
Police
Department.
So.
AK
AM
The
past
the
previous
manager
of
the
victim
services
was
responsible
for
making
sure
those
referrals
got
to
the
appropriate
person
whether
it
was
an
advocate,
a
non-profit
presence
that
was
her
responsibility
to
make
sure
all
the
referrals
that
came
in
through
law
enforcement
got
to
where
they
needed
some
of
the
well-being
checks
were
sent
to
Audrey
Thompson,
some
of
the
seniors
that
officers
went
to
visit.
They
would
make
a
referral
and
that
manager
was
responsible
to
make
sure
that
referral
god
to
Audrey
Thompson
got
to
the
health
department
got
to
presence
or
the
victim
advocates.
AM
AM
AM
AJ
AN
Good
evening
mr.
city
manager,
mr.
mayor
members
of
the
dais,
the
chaplains
program
was
started
with
the
intent
of
ministry
to
the
officers
and
employees
of
the
police
department.
When
we
began
this
discussion
over
a
year
ago,
it
was
my
it
was
my
plan
to
use
the
chaplains
as
a
stopgap
measure
until
the
staffing
under
director,
Thomas
Smith
had
been
reached.
AN
Unfortunately,
is
was
just
covered
recently
that
his
kind
that
plan
eroded
over
time-
and
we
have
used
the
chaplains
over
this
last
year
to
help
us
with
that
notifications
and
one
of
the
things
that
is
extremely
difficult
in
these
matters
is
time.
We
we
need
a
tool
that
works
24/7
seventh
day
I
mean
we
can't.
AN
You
know,
you
know
the
death
notification
guys
are
off,
we'll
see
you
next
ones
that
that
doesn't
work,
and
so,
depending
on
the
outcome
of
the
seedlings
discussions,
we
will
need
to
tool
up
a
number
of
police
officers
to
become
proficient
in
these
death
notifications,
who
are
able
to
do
it
in
a
timely
manner.
So
the
family
and
loved
ones
can
begin
to
start
what
they
need
to
do
and
in
go
forward.
AN
The
this
situation
we
have
with
the
chaplains
is,
we
started
off
with
a
crew
of
six
and
frankly,
I
I
were
a
chaplain
in
that
group.
I
would
be
considered
the
young
guy
in
the
group
so
and
so
now
we
I've
burnt
that
bridge
I
burnt
them
up
there.
Their
capacity
has
been
tapped,
and
so
we
need
to
evolve
to
a
system
where
that
responsibility
is
taken
over
by
police
officers
and,
as
I
said,
I
think
it
was
last
week
or
the
week
before,
not
generally
a
skill
set.
AN
We
have
generally
not
a
skill
set,
especially
in
this
department
and
the
other
agencies.
I've
worked
for
it
was
a
responsibility
of
the
beat
officers
and
supervisors
to
deliver
this
information
with
our
30
year
history
of
victim
services-
that's
not
in
our.
We
don't
do
that,
and
so
now
we're
going
to
have
to
train
officers
up
to
do
that.
So
we
have
the
ability
to
do
this
in
a
timely
manner.
AJ
Thank
You
chief,
so
director,
that's
that's
not
a
service
that
you
could.
You
could
provide
at
24
24/7
service.
We.
AM
AM
It
would
take
that
four
hour
for
them
to
be
physically
present
to
do
a
death
notification
and
so
again,
if,
if
the
the
police
officers
needed
someone
sooner,
it
would
be
a
delay
because
of
where
the
proximity
of
where
my
current
staff
live,
the
earliest
that
a
staff
person
could
be
available
would
be
a
half
an
hour
45
minutes
and
for
the
police
department.
That
might
be
a
delay
for
them.
AM
AF
You
and,
and
just
like
last
year,
I'm
still
struggling
with
with
some
of
my
decision
process
on
this,
but
in
considering
this,
this
is
it's
really
a
budget
question
and
it's
to
me
it's
reflecting
our
intentions.
It's
not
I!
Don't
expect
you
to
have
all
of
the
parameters
of
the
plan
work
out,
so
we're
talking
about
what
resources
money-wise
you're
going
to
available
and
and
when
I
think
about
that
the
way
I
look
at
this
is
we're.
AF
Gonna
look
at
what
services
are
going
to
be
available
and
we
want
to
make
sure
that
they're
going
to
be
they're
being
successfully
delivered,
and
we
want
to
make
sure
that
you
have
the
capacity
to
provide
those
I
trust
that
you
are
gonna
work
well
with
the
new
chief
and
come
up
with.
You
know,
firm
up
the
plans
I
what
I?
What
I
hear
in
what
you've
presented
and
talked
about?
AF
Is
you
kind
of
you
know
my
football
metaphor:
we're
like
we're
on
the
10-yard
line
and
we're
close,
so
I
think
I
have
a
better
understanding
from
both
the
conversation,
your
information
and
also
hearing
from
the
public.
These
are
very,
very
important
services,
but
more
than
just
being
important,
they're
they're
extremely
personal.
So
in
every
situation
they
are
full
of
variables
and
context
that
any
given
one
person
really
can't
address.
AF
So
my
inclination,
you
know
in
looking
at
the
numbers
again
is
not
to
expect
you
to
have
all
of
the
the
plan
and
the
program
worked
out
tonight,
but
looking
at
what's
up
there,
we
do
have
the
vacant
position.
Vacant
I
would
like
to
leave
that
vacant,
but
leave
that
leave
the
money
for
the
YW
program
in
there
and
the
other
two
positions
in
in
the
budget,
but
with
the
understanding
that
this
is
planning
budget.
AF
So
you
know
you're
not
going
to
go
shopping
and
spend
too
much
money,
but
my
hope
is:
if
we
do
that,
you're
gonna
have
the
room,
you
need
to
come
back
to
us
and
get
us
to
the
to
the
goal
line
and
have
all
of
those
those
three
points
flushed
out
and
in
a
cohesive
plan
for
the
delivery
of
the
services
with
the
menu
with
the
services.
Does
that
make
sense.
AM
AM
AF
AH
AF
E
AF
E
E
AF
AM
X
AG
AF
AM
AF
AF
That's
my
inclination
is
for
now
to
Alterman.
Rainey's
point
leave
those
positions
where
they
are
and
then
have
you
work
with
the
new
chief
and
you
know,
give
us
clear,
and
you
know
clear
plan
on
how
the
services
are
going
to
be
delivered
like
literally
who's
gonna.
Do
what
and
then
who's
gonna
kind
of
supervise,
because
I
don't
feel
super
comfortable
that
you
know
the
ultimen
rainy
call.
It
says
it's
chaotic
I,
don't
it's
gonna
be
chaotic,
but
I
don't
want
it
to
be
confusing
to
people
who
are
you
know
experiencing.
AF
A
AF
AF
AD
AF
AD
AF
Yw
can
I'm
J
mister,
it's
not
in
either
one
I'm
just
saying
I
want
it.
I
want
to
put
enough
money
in
here
that
you
can
do
what
you
need
to
do
to
deliver
all
the
services.
However,
that
looks
so.
If
you
think
you
can
only
you
can
do
it
all
with
just
the
Y.
Then
we
can
just
vote
on
that.
That's
okay!
If
you,
if
you
really
feel
confident
about
that,
okay.
E
Merz,
the
council,
thank
you
for
the
discussion
this
evening.
What
I'd
like
to
propose
is
that
we
we
keep
the
two
positions:
current
fill
positions
within
the
department
of
health
and
human
services,
that
we
provide
funding
for
six
months
of
contract
with
the
y.w
CA,
and
then
we
asked
miss
Thomas
Smith
to
come
back
to
the
council
once
the
new
police
chief
is
in
place,
April
1st
April
15th,
something
like
that
with
with
a
update
and
if
there
was
additional
dollars
that
are
required,
then
to
keep
the
contract
a
full
moving
forward.
E
AM
E
That
we
would
ask
you
to
give
you
the
money
for
six
months
of
a
contract
from
the
YW
to
sort
through
that.
Perhaps
you
know
don't
enter
into
the
talk
further
with
the
YW.
We
still
need
to
come
up
with
plans
for
the
notifications,
I
think
his
chief
eddington
has
said.
Perhaps
we
look
further
at
having
officers.
Do
that?
There's
some
training
involved,
so
there'll
be
some
dollars
required
for
that.
E
But
I
think
that
if
we
keep
the
advocates
free
up
some
money
for
contract,
let
you
continue
to
talk
further
with
the
y-w
that
this
is
a
six
month
solution
that
then
I
think
goes
back
to
all
of
and
Rainey's
a
regional
point
that
it
was
lined
up
with
the
larger
work
that
we're
doing
moving
forward,
that
that
may
make
sense
we're
then
a
hundred
thousand
dollars
to
the
to
the
less
that
would
take
fund
balance
down
to
about
one
hundred
and
forty
thousand
dollars.
Mr.
E
AD
AD
First
of
all,
the
YWCA
is
always
already
present
in
our
community.
They've
received
enormous
grant.
Recently
they
are
there
to
serve
us,
that's
their
mission.
We
need.
We
need
the
two
victim
advocates
and
and
a
third
because
I,
don't
believe
anybody
else
is
going
to
be
able
to
fill
in
and
do
the
overnight
work.
If
they're
not
going
to
be
called
to
do,
it
presence
is
already
there.
I
this
this.
This
service
does
not
belong
in
the
health
department.
I
want.
AD
I
want
the
city
manager
to
promise
to
to
have
this
conversation
with
the
new
chief
of
police.
This
does
not
belong
in
the
health
department.
The
health
department
needs
to
be
doing.
You
know
talking
to
people
about
vaccines,
and
you
know
transmitted
diseases
and
thing,
and
food
safety
I,
don't
want
them
administering
police
issues,
things
that
have
to
do
with
police
records
and
that
kind
of
thing
I,
just
don't
think
it's
their
job.
You
know
there
has
been
nothing
but
think
about
it.
AD
The
chief
just
pointed
out
thirty
years,
we've
had
a
victim
assistance
program
in
the
police
department.
We've
never,
and
in
my
years
we've
never
had
any
problem
until
we
moved
it
to
the
health
department,
let's
put
it
back
where
it
belongs
and
have
the
conversation
you're
talking
about
with
the
police
department
that
and.
E
E
So
we
are
already
in
the
human
services
business
part
of
that
is
because
we
took
over
the
township,
and
part
of
it
is
because
after
we
took
over
the
township,
we
saw
that
there
was
a
great
need
for
these
kind
of
services.
Many
of
the
victims
of
crime
are
needs
of
these
services
and
I.
Think
what
director
Thomas,
Smith
and
her
staff
have
been
able
to
do
is
show
how
this
does
make
sense,
but
it
has
been
a
transition.
It
has
been
something
different
again.
E
AD
E
We
can
then
again
we
will
need
a
moment
just
to
make
sure
we
get
all
the
numbers
straight,
but
you
know
we
can
do
this
for
six
months
to
leave.
The
positions
in
the
health
department
try
to
have
some
flexibility
for
contract
dollars,
work
with
the
new
chief
and
then
come
back
as
part
of
that
larger
review
in
six
months.
So,
if
I
think,
if
we
took
those
positions
and
only
budgeted
the
two
staff
positions
for
six
months,
that
should
do
it
as
far
as
helping
us
balance
this
a
little
bit
closer.
E
Ottoman
Rainey
members
of
the
council,
they
have
been,
they
have
been
given
the
opportunity
to
do
their
job,
but
they've
been
asked
to
do
their
job
a
little
differently
and
I
think
it
is
our
responsibility
as
good
managers.
Certainly
director
Thomas
Smith
and
mr.
Perkins
have
done
that,
and
so
we
we
just
need
to
continue
to
work.
We
need
to
have
it's
a
team
effort
serving
this
community
is
a
team
effort.
We
have
many
people
in
need.
E
AE
Quick
are
we
gonna
have
the
why
contract
back
before
it's
signed
and
commit
it
to
okay
and
and
so
I
guess,
I
would
like
to
have
more
information.
So
if
someone's
in
the
hospital
or
whatever's
happened
to
this
person
who
need
services
make
sure
the
police
know
who
to
call
the
hospital
knows,
because
now
it's
not
that
you're
calling
the
wife
or
domestic
violence
you're
calling
you
know
I'm
director,
Thomas,
Smith
I'm.
Imagine
if
it's
midnight
that
you
know
I
think
we
just
want
to
be
really
clear.
AH
I
think
that
I
think
that
the
city
manager
has
proposed
a
very
good
compromise.
For
now
we
are
holding
on
to
two
victim
at
victims
advocates,
but
we
are
using
the
why
the
YW
which
I
director
Thomas
Smith,
is
absolutely
right.
They
are
the
experts
in
this
and
they
have
been
for
a
long
time.
I
think
it's
really
critical
that
we
do
that
director.
Thomas
Smith
is
the
point
person
who
it
has
been
and
correct
me.
AH
AH
How
long
we
had
the
relationship
with
Casa
that's
a
year,
okay
and
I,
and
they
are
in
another,
superb
organization
that
specializes
in
sexual
violence,
I
I
think
that
we
should
move
forward
where
we're
and
we'll
revisit
this
at
six
months
and
we'll
figure
out
whether
this
is
working
correctly
or
whether
what
are
the
changes
that
we
need
to
make.
But
I
do
think
we
it's
essential
that
we
use
the
YW
for
their
expertise
and
that
we
start
having
them
do
that.
AH
You
know
an
alderman,
Rainey
I
know
you're,
saying
they
are
there
for
us,
but
they
are
providing
capacity.
Ultimen
excuse
me,
director,
thomas
smith,
just
told
us
80%
of
these
victims.
This
type
of
victim
services
is
domestic
violence.
That's
their
and
they're
a
nationally
recognized
expert
right
here
in
our
community
that
we
should
who
are
ready
to
step
up
and
help
us
so
I
think
we
should
move
forward.
I
think
this
is
a
very
good
compromise.
AH
This
allows
us
time
to
gather
the
information
that
we
need
to
start
working
with
the
with
the
YW
and
and
that
my
understanding
from
the
chief
is
that
the
death
notifications
will
now
be
done
by
the
police
department.
If
that
your
services
are
not
available
within
in
less
than
an
hour.
Is
that
correct.
AM
AJ
AM
AJ
AM
AM
A
Okay,
so
unless
says,
thank
you.
Thank
you
very
much,
director
Thomas.
Unless
there's
any
more
discussion
about
the
general
budget.
What
I
proposed
now
is
that
we
go
back
to
the
beginning
of
the
agenda
and
we
start
taking
these
items
that
are
all
for
action
can
and
I
guess.
I
I
have
a
question
of
the
city
attorney.
AO
A
Each
one
separately-
okay,
so
we're
going
to
do
lots
of
we're
going
to
do
lots
of
lots
of
lots
of
votes
and
and
we'll
go
we'll
go
through
all
right.
So
item
item
number
two
resolution:
82
artists,
18
general
obligation,
debt
property
tax
abatement
staff
recommends
the
adoption
of
this
resolution
for
general
obligation,
bonds,
Series,
2010,
B
removal.
AD
H
AD
AD
They
covered
they
cover
from
resolution,
such-and-such
a
number
to
2018
d,
which
I
think
is
the
last
one.
My
recollection
is
last
one,
and
then
you
mentioned
that
they
yeah
that's
what
you
do
and
and
the
amount
that
it's
a
bathing.
For
example,
the
total
2018
abatement
is
five
million
eight
hundred
seventy
two
dollars,
605
five
million
eight
hundred
seventy
two
thousand
six
hundred
and
sixty

so
you'd,
say:
I,
move
approval

resolution.

123
Oh,
18,
the
city
of
Evanston,
2018,
tax
levy,
I'm
gonna
read
the
whole
thing
here,
because
I
think
that's
important.
This
levies,
the
annual
property
tax
for
general
fund
operations,
Illinois
Municipal
retirement
fund,
the
Police
and
Fire
pension
funds
and
the
general
assistance
fund
totaling,
31
million
five
hundred
$39,995,
the
corresponding
total
for
the
2017
levy,
was
thirty
million
one
hundred
one
thousand
two
hundred
and
twenty
dollars.
I
move
approval
and
then
I'd
like
to
speak
to
it.
Second,.
AD
AD
AE
AP
Members
of
the
City
Council,
so
I
just
present
like
prepared
a
summary
report
about
the
two
aspects.
First,
one
is
what
would
be
the
impact
on
the
household
from
one
hundred
thousand
to
a
million
dollar
for
the
proposed
increase
of
four
point?
Four
percent,
so
this
includes
the
Washington
TIF
recapture
of
$1,000,000
and
the
2%
levy
increase
and
the
bottom
table,
which
shows
that
what
would
be
the
impact
on
the
rate
so
I
started
with
the
2017
levy,
which
is
the
current
levy
we
are
using
additional.
AP
Sixty
four
million
dollar
would
be
contributed
by
the
Washington
safe
to
the
German
levy,
and
you
see
that
the
total
estimated
levy
would
be
around
2.8
million
and
the
tax
levy
with
the
million
dollar
recapture
and
eight
eight
hundred
twenty
thousand
tuples
and
increase
at
forty
two
point:
six
million
dollars,
which
would
be
around
one
point.
Five.
Two
now
again
to
be
conservative,
I,
haven't
included
the
general
year
we
increased
like
last
year.
We
added
seventy
million
dollars
to
the
year
V.
AP
If
I
put
even
around
fifty
million
dollar
here
the
rate
would
remain
the
same.
At
one
point,
four:
nine
for
the
city
portion
of
the
tax
levy
in
terms
of
the.
If
you
just
for
a
market
value
of
property
of
like
say,
100,000,
the
net
increase
would
be
$19,
you
see
in
the
column,
F
$19
69
cent.
And
if
you
go
around
$400,000
market
value
of
homes,
the
increase
would
be
seventy
eight
dollars
and
seventy
five
cents.

The

stuff:
it's
trespass:
the
vehicles
season
and
the
sixth
Ward
and
they're
mostly
unlocked
cars.
So
if
everyone
could
be
mindful
of
that,
lock
your
cars
check
them.
We
had
our
van
rifled
through
they're,
not
break-ins.
There,
people
just
pulling
on
car
doors
that
are
unsecured,
lock
them
up.
Please.
Thank
you.
Thank.
AK
No
and
I
would
have
thought
shaming,
her
colleagues,
but
nonetheless,
but
I
just
wanted
everyone
to
know
that
there
are
many
steps
between
the
approval
of
that
easement
request
and
the
actual
construction
of
the
road
and
I
think
we
in
Evanston
will
be
working
hand-in-hand
with
a
woman,
Park
District
to
press
for
a
different
and
better
solution.
So
stay
tuned.
AD
You
that
was
very
good
work
and
hard
work
on
your
part.
I
can't
believe
they
voted
that
way.
I
want
to
thank
everybody
who
came
out
in
this
community
and
wrote
letters
about
the
budget.
There
have
been
years
where
not
one
person
showed
up
to
a
budget
hearing,
and
so
this
is
extremely
helpful.
So
thank
you
very
much
and
Happy
Thanksgiving
great.
AE
What's
your
name
Wilson
and
said
there
are
lots
of
great
things
that
we
do,
but
I
voted
no
to
the
budget
and
to
several
things
on
the
budget,
because
I
would
like
to
still
press
us
as
a
city
to
look
at
our
internal
spending.
I
use
my
first
year
and
we
did
a
ton
of
change
orders
and
we
paid
for
a
lot
of
things
that
I
had
a
lot
of
questions
about
and
so
I
just
felt
like.
AE
In
my
opinion,
we
had
not
done
our
due
diligence
to
look
at
our
internal
spending
before
we
transfer
those
costs
over
to
the
citizens,
and
so
it
is
a
democracy
and
while
I
support
alderman
when
I
mean
Ottoman
Wilson's,
you
know
thought
be
supportive
and
collaborative
I
voted.
No
because
I
have
the
right
to
do
so,
and
it
was
important
to
me
that
I
communicated
that
to
the
residents
of
the
ward
in
the
city
other
than
that
the
Ninth
Ward
will
be
having
a
holiday
party
on
December,
the
15th.
AE
AJ
Also
want
to
thank
everyone
who
showed
up
and
commented
and
sent
emails
about
the
budget
process
and
I
think
that
we
appear
have
learned
a
lot
too
this
year.
I
want
to
commend
the
city
manager
for
all
of
the
time
and
effort
he
put
in
to
helping
us
to
reach
out
to
the
community.
I
do
think
that
there's
a
way
for
us
to
look
at
this
a
little
bit
differently,
based
on
what
we
learned
this
year
for
next
year's
budget,
but
I
think
I
think
we
did
the
best
we
could
under
real
difficult
circumstances.
AG
You
mr.
mayor
I
want
to
join
the
council
in
thanking
all
the
residents,
particularly
those
in
the
second
Ward
who
came
out,
sent
email
stopped
me
in
the
grocery
stores
sent
letters
through
my
wife
and
kids.
We
walked
into
this
season,
knowing
that
it
was
going
to
be
difficult,
and
it
was
everything
and
plus
so
I
do
thank
folks
for
their
engagement
a
very
very
busy
weekend.
AG
This
past
week,
the
Democratic
Party
of
Evanston
moved
their
location
to
the
corner
of
church
and
Darrell,
just
to
let
everyone
know
so
welcome
the
Democratic
Party
of
Evanston
to
the
second
Ward
Smith
Park
neighbors
organized
comprising
the
second
fifth
Ward,
and
we
met
over
the
weekend.
I
want
to
thank
all
those
that
came
out
on
a
Saturday
morning.
AG
We
also
celebrated
the
n-double-a-cp
s.
Annual
fundraiser
was
another
great
event
where
number
of
wonderful
people
in
the
community
was
recognized,
particularly
those
the
officer
and
gentleman
not
to
take
away
anything
else,
so
Nikko
Holmes
second
Ward
resident.
Thank
you
all
for
all
your
wonderful
work
that
you
do
in
the
community
and
I'll
end
by
wishing
everyone
a
very
happy
Thanksgiving
in
a
wonderful
holiday
season,
Thank
You
mr.
mayor.
E
I'd
like
to
take
this
opportunity
to
thank
the
City
Council
for
your
diligence
through
this
process.
We
started
a
long
time
ago.
Talking
about
this
I
hope
that
the
residents
of
the
community
feel
felt
that
there
was
plenty
of
opportunity
for
comment
and
for
participation.
Our
challenges
we
can
only
live
within
our
means.
We
can
only
live
with
them
with
the
dollars
that
we
gain
through
taxes
and
fees
and
charges
to
deliver
all
the
various
wonderful
things
people
want
and
putting
in
a
million
dollars
in
debt
service,
a
million
and
a
half
dollars
for.
E
Reserves
is
a
big
deal,
that's
two
and
a
half
million
dollars
right
off
the
bat
that
went
in
in
order
to
be
more
fiscally
solvent
and
to
address
what
was
they
already
a
need
to
settle
decision,
and
that
is
moving
forward
with
robber
crown.
So
thank
you
for
your
leadership.
There
I
want
to
take
thank
the
city.
Staff
attached
to
sigh
hopefully
still
feels
good
about
coming
back
for
his
third
tour
with
us.
E
As
the
chief
financial
officer,
a
Katelyn
slaking,
a
Cate
stepped
up
to
take
a
bigger
role
once
the
budget
was
issued,
I
want
to
thank
you
Kate
for
your
excellent
work,
assistant
city
manager,
Erika
story
also
very
involved
in
in
the
twists
and
turns,
and
deputy
city
manager,
Kimberly
Richardson
Alex
Laura,
our
revenue
manager,

I
just
want
to
make
sure

aware
of
the
fine
staff

that
work
every
single
day
on
your
behalf.
So.
