A
A
Want
to
welcome
everyone
to
the
Madison
City
council
meeting.
We
have
a
very
full
agenda
tonight
today
is
Tuesday
September
20
2022.
before
we
start
I'd
like
to
just
Express
mine
and
council's
condolences
to
family
Jim
Lee
who
passed
away
this
week.
A
Jim
was
a
long
time
public
servant
to
City
of
Madison
and
a
four-term
city
council
person
and
served
on
many
boards
for
the
city
and
Jefferson
County,
and
you
know
I
think
that
that
we
can
certainly
relate
public
service
to
Jim's
life,
and
so
I'd
like
to
ask
the
audience
here
for
a
moment
of
silence
in
honor
of
former
councilman
Jim
Lee.
A
Thank
you
and
I
know
that
his
family
appreciates
this
and
is
going
through
quite
the
ordeal
this
week,
like
with
all
of
our
City
Council
meetings,
we'll
start
by
standing
and
removing
our
hats
bowing
our
heads
we're
signing
the
Lord's
Prayer,
followed
by
a
pledge
of
allegiance
and
then
we'll
get
into
the
substance
of
the
need.
B
A
A
G
And
I
move,
we
approve
the
minutes
as
amended.
F
I
Certain
parameters
within
which
they
may
settle
the
above
named
lawsuit
as
may
be
necessary
to
negotiate
and
mediate
a
settlement
in
the
above
name
settlement
or
above
name
case
on
behalf
of
the
city.
Any
such
settlements
shall
be
made
with
a
purpose
within
those
parameters
and
upon
the
advice
and
recommendation
of
the
City
attorney
and
outside
Council.
Now,
therefore
be
resolved
by
the
that
Mayor
Bob
Courtney
and
the
utility
manager
Brian
Jackson
are
hereby
authorized
by
the
common
Council
of
the
city
of
Madison
Indiana
to
participate
on
behalf
of
the
city
in
a
mediation.
I
I
So
this
is
a
resolution
to
give
the
mayor
and
Brian
Jackson
with
the
advice
of
myself
and
are
the
attorney
that
we
have
hired
from
Taft
law
office
to
help
us
with
this
matter,
to
try
and
reach
a
resolution
we're
going
into
mediation
in
good
faith
and
trying
to
get
this
matter
resolved
and
the
it
is
our
understanding
that
all
of
the
other
parties
will
have
the
same.
They
will
send
unauthorized
person
with
the
same
authorization
to
try
and
get
this
resolved.
I
So
if
there's
any
questions,
I'll
be
happy
to
answer
them,
but
we
do
probably
need
a
motion
and
a
second
to
approve.
I
I'll
be
happy
to
so
any
questions
from
Council
Mr
ruse.
The
question
is,
it
is
where
Dupont
water,
company,
Canaan
utilities
and
Rikers
Ridge
have
filed
a
suit
against
the
city
of
Madison,
as
it
pertains
to
the
increase
in
water
rates.
I
J
I
Resolution
passes.
Thank
you.
The
next
resolution
is
resolution
number
40c-2022,
a
resolution
of
the
common

However,
the

I
To
accomplish
this
transfer,
conveyance
or
assignment
this
resolution
would
be
full
force,
in
effect
upon
surpasses
by
the
common
Council,
and
we
have
Tom
Pittman.
Who
is
on
the
phone
who
drafted
this
resolution,
and
he
is
here
for
any
questions
that
you
might
have.
He
was
also
present
for
the
Redevelopment
commission,
who
passed
a
similar
resolution.
I
Questions
well,
I
guess
probably
let's
get
a
motion
in
a
second.
K
Yeah
I'm
here
to
answer
questions
or
to
review
any
comments.
We
also
have
Gary
Smith
for
Three
Financial
here
as
well
to
talk
through
any
of
the
financial
questions
you
might
have
as
this
Project's
evolving.
So
we
can
certainly
do
that
and
we
all
appreciate
your
attention
to
this
in
a
timely
fashion,
given
the
tight
timelines
we're
on
so
things
are
still
coming
together,
but
coming
together.
Well,
so
so.
C
L
Do
yeah
I
was
trying
to
wait
yeah
to
see
if
this
is
the
right
time
to
discuss
the
lease
agreement
too.
Okay,
so
Tom,
one
thing
that
I
was
really
open
to
see
in
the
paperwork.
That
I
don't
is
that
after
the
lease
has
been
paid
off,
that
the
property
is
officially
back
into
the
hands
of
the
parks
department,
the
pool
and
that
I
never
found
that
in
the
reading,
like
I
can
see
that
it
goes
back
to
the
RDC.
L
E
Yeah
I
have
when
the
easement
and
and
I'm
I'm
thinking,
we'll
probably
recommend
doing
the
transfer
from
the
city
to
the
authority
by
an
easement
agreement.
We
will
make
sure
that
the
easement
agreement
has
a
requirement
as
a
transfer
back
at
the
end
of
the
financing.
Would
that
would
that
meet
the
need?
Or,
alternatively,
you
I
mean?
If
you
wanted
to
you
could
add
I
mean
it
could
be
added
to
the
lease.
If
you'd
prefer
that
that
I
mean
you
are
right
it.
E
It
is
a
it
isn't
in
the
resolution,
you
could
you.
B
J
E
You
wanted
to
that,
provided
that
any
such
plan
for
for
conveying
for
assignment
shall
include
a
requirement
of
transferring
the
property
back
once
the
financing
is,
is,
is
matured.
E
I
I,
okay,
so
would
you
like
to
make
an
amendment
that
would
state.
I
Okay,
so
I
believe
there
is
an
amendment
that
will
be
proposed
that
says
that
it
is
the
intent
of
all
the
parties
involved,
that,
upon
completion
of
the
lease
payments
that
the
property
identified,
herein
will
revert
back
to
the
city
of
Madison.
L
H
I
I
So
we've
got
a
motion
to
amend
the
lease
section
three
pursuant
to
what
I
stated
and
we
have
a
second
all
in
favor
of
that
Amendment
aye
aye
any
opposed
the
amendment
passes
is
there?
Are
there
any
other
questions.
G
Paragraphs
10,
11
and
12.
the
option
to
renew
option
to
purchase
and
transfer
to
Lessie.
As
this
this
lease
is
going
to
be
stretched
out
over
several
councils
and
Mayors
over
the
next
20
25
years.
I
would
like
to
see
some
kind
of
wording
that
would
require
the
approval
of
the
common
Council
for
those.
G
So
I
I
would
I
would
move
to
amend
paragraphs
10,
11
and
12.
to
add
wording
suggested
by
Council.
That
requires
those
actions
to
be
approved
by
the
common
Council.
I
G
One
more
I
probably
should
have
lumped
this
in
with
it
as
well
paragraph
14
notices.
Would
there
be
any
objection
to
adding
the
mayor
and
council
president
as
also
being
recipients
of
of
those
notices.
I
G
I
would
move
to
a
man,
paragraph
14,
to
require
notices
to
also
be
sent
to
the
mayor
of
the
city
of
Madison
and
the
city
council
president
pro
Tem.
H
I
G
This
this
will
be
a
question
under
the
oh
gosh
papers
are
everywhere
the
resolution,
the
section
three
that
Edition
the
mayor
of
the
city
is
authorized
to
transfer
all
interested
rights
of
the
city
to
the
real
property
subject
in
the
lease
What
specifically,
is
the
property
I
mean?
Do
we
have
a
legal
description
of
what
would
be
transferred,
or
is
that
going
to
be
handled
in
a
separate?
Well.
G
E
Be
described
yes,
I
think
it's
the
simplest
way
to
do.
It
is
to
just
provide
an
easement
agreement
between
the
city
and
the
Redevelopment
Authority,
granting
an
easement
that
lasts
through
the
term
of
the
bonds
that
that
will
enable
the
Redevelopment
authority
to
make
the
improvements.
E
E
A
K
G
Any
other
questions:
well,
the
Redevelopment
commission.
How
will
they,
how
will
the
pool
be
managed?
A
Think
there
needs
to
be.
We
need
to
also
recognize
the
fact
here
that
all
of
these
different
boards
or
commissions
that
have
specific
statutory,
statutory,
Authority
or
all
the
city
of
maps,
so
there's
no
title:
that's
being
transferred
Parts
Department's
still
going
to
manage
the
pool.
G
Anything
else-
sorry,
oh
sorry,
yeah
is
there.
Is
there
an
estimate,
estimated
cost
to
the
issuing
like
the
expenses
for
issuing
these
bonds
yeah.
A
Yeah
I
mean
it,
could,
you
know
easily,
be
you
know,
probably
five
six
hundred
thousand
dollars,
including
a
Debt
Service
Reserve,.
M
Reserve
yeah,
so
the
total
estimate
and
I
think
this
is
conservative,
because
we've
included
every
possible
thing
we
can
think
of
for
purposes
of
the
analysis.
We
want
to
be
conservative
at
this
point.
It's
around
815,
000,
total.
That's
all
in
now.
That
includes
many
things.
There's
this
very
small
contingency
in
there
there's
capitalized
interest
in
the
first
period,
because
during
a
lease
during
during
the
portion
of
time
during
the
construction,
we
can't
payments
that
would
otherwise
be
condiments
or
cap.
M
You
know:
cost
of
issuance
for
financial
advisors,
legal,
local,
Council
trustees.
Anything
you
can
think
of.
We've
we've
been
conservative
on
estimates,
any
underwriter
fee
has
been
Incorporated.
We've
also
included
things
such
as
bond
insurance
and
bond
rating.
If
we
go
to
the,
if
we
were
to
go
to
the
open
market
to
sell
these
bonds
as
opposed
to
placing
it
with
a
local
Institution,
for
instance,.
M
So
we've
got
those
costs
baked
in
again,
Bond,
try
so
and
then
finally,
Debt
Service
Reserve
we've
got
398
000
baked
in
for
Debt
Service
Reserve.
Now
that's
almost
half
the
cost
and
it's
not
a
cost
at
all.
It's
actually
just
a
account.
You
set
up
on
the
side
to
say
hey
in
the
event
that
we
don't
make
our
payments
investors.
You
should
feel
secure
because
we
have
this
extra
one-year
payment
sitting
off
to
the
side.
So
that's
not
a
sunk
cost
that
simply
just
goes
towards
buying
down
your
last.
M
Your
last
payment
at
the
very
end,
there's
ways
around
that
through,
what's
called
a
Debt
Service
Surety
policy,
where
you
can
elect
to
do
a
cost
option
that
costs
you
know,
fifteen
twenty
thousand
thereabouts
that
allows
you
not
to
find,
but
as
your
Municipal
advisor
that's
kind
of
what
we
do,
what
we
do
members
and
make
sure
that
what
we're
recommending
is
the
best
cost
of
the
city,
so
I
think
what
we're
projecting
for
cost
is
very
conservative.
I!
Don't
think
it's
going
to
be
that
high!
That's
what
we're
predicting.
M
So
we're
working
through
different
options
right
now,
we've
got
some
different
funding
sources.
We're
considering
right
now.
That
piece
would
be
just
for
the
pool
itself.
The
four
point.
A
M
M
C
A
Of
this
cost
of
demolition
cost
of
construction,
we
got
to
finish
the
designs
and
then
get
that
out
through
the
bidding
process.
So
we're
really
trying
to
put
the
guard
rails
around
the
structure,
because
a
lot
of
these
processes
are
happening
in
a
parallel
fashion,
so
we're
trying
to
put
maximum
amount
that
we'll
borrow
maximum
amount
of
debt
service
that
we'll
have
through
the
lease
payments
if
it
costs
more
than
4.9.
For
example,
right
we
have
to
identify
another
source.
A
K
A
K
Can
say
we
did
receive
demolition
contract
bids
yesterday,
they're
being
currently
reviewed.
We
do
see
a
couple
of
anomalies
there,
so
we
those
those
bits
came
sort
of
within
their
parameters
that
we
had
hoped.
So
that
was
good
news,
so
we'll
we'll
see
where
that
goes
and
again
remember
we're
moving
the
demo
package
up.
First,
as
we're
finishing
design,
there'll
be
demoing,
design
will
finish,
will
bid,
and
then
we
should.
N
Rick
Rouge
1421
Cherokee
Court
I
apologize
for
not
getting
up
earlier,
just
we're
moving
very
fast,
but
the
question
you
haven't
decided
it
on
a
design
and
the
last
meeting
before
my
butt
got
tired,
I'm
just
sitting
there
going.
You
know
this
idea
of
our
city
being
a
destination
town
because
of
our
pool
I,
don't
other
than
Orlando
I,
don't
know
any
other
destination
place
for
water
sports.
That
type
of
thing
I.
It
just
seems
like
this.
N
Council
keeps
spending
a
lot
of
money
and
you
know
I,
understand
we're
doing
debt
and
all
that
debt
service
and
all
this
other
stuff,
but
I'm
sitting
there
going
freaking
money
for
renovating
the
pool
and
I
haven't
in
any
campaign.
I've
been
involved
in
I've
been
involved
in
a
lot
of
years.
I've
never
heard
that
as
a
plank
of
anybody's
political
platform
to
renovate
Crystal,
Beach
I
understand
the
emotional
tie.
N
As
far
as
you
know,
my
grandmother
learned
how
to
swim
there
and
all
this
other
stuff,
because
she
was
born
in
1932
but
I'm
just
sitting
there
going
this
mandate
to
do
this,
a
lot
of
good
glitter
and
all
this
other
stuff.
But
I,
don't
I,
don't
get.
You
know
we're
not
the
taxpayers
ultimately
responsible
for
the
money.
Somehow
I
don't
understand,
Tiff
I.
Don't
think
anybody
on
the
council
really
understands
Tiff,
but
it's
just
it.
N
A
Well,
that's
you
packed
a
lot
in
that
I'll
say
that
we're
not
renovating
the
pool,
we're
replacing
the
pool
it's
been
on
this
trajectory
for
a
couple
of
decades.
We
all
knew
that
the
pool
was
failing
and
deteriorating,
and
there
was
you
know
some
some
improvements
made
in
the
pool
to
try
to
extend
its
useful
life,
but
it's
beyond
its
useful
life.
A
A
We
then
worked
very
conscientiously
on
how
do
you
replace
a
pool
of
the
character
of
Crystal
Beach
in
the
historic
district
and
also
one
where
you
want
to
improve
and
modernize
and
add
more
amenities
to
it,
so
that
it
will
attract
more
swimmers?
We
get
about
15
000
swimmers
a
year
there
last
at
the
last
council
meeting
or
two
Council
meetings
go
when
we
did
the
design
review,
we
had
all
the
design
and
Architects
and
engineers
and
and
financial
advisors.
A
Here
we
laid
out
what
we
feel
very
strongly
meets
our
objectives
with
regard
historical
Integrity,
amenities,
all
age
groups,
all
abilities
and
something
that
that
also
takes
into
consideration
future
maintenance
o
m
costs
so
that
we
can
reduce
those
and
afford
it.
A
We
are,
we
do
know
what
kind
of
pool
we
want
and
that's
what
our
designers
are
finalizing,
because
we'll
have
to
get
that
bid
package
together.
So
we
can
go
out
and
get
the
cost
estimates
we're
working
with
very
experienced
Architects,
Engineers,
designers
and
advisors
on
what
these
types
of
public
Improvement
projects
cost
and
again
in
this
particular
environment,
everything's
more
expensive
because
of
Labor
supply
chain
timing,
a
Workforce
that
all
rolls
into
that
it.
It
there's
nothing
that
is
inexpensive.
B
A
Quarter
century
ago
Rick
there
was
actually
a
pool
steering
committee
that
was
formed
that
talked
about,
but
you're
right
and
you
all
came
up
with
the
conclusion.
You
can
correct
me
if
I'm
wrong,
that
the
pool
needed
to
be
replaced
and
it
needed
to
be
replaced
where
it
is
not
moved
to
a
different
location.
A
We
did
early
on
talk
about.
What
do
we
do?
We
do
something
really
standard
and
traditional
and
rectangular
and
go
to
the
hilltop
and
try
to
do
something
less
expensive
and
when
we
started
really
thinking
about
the
community
needs
assessment.
We
we
researched
and
evaluated
the
original
plans
for
1938.
We
looked
at.
You
know,
initiatives
from
the
last
quarter
Century.
A
Replacing
Crystal
Beach
was
not
on
my
radar,
but
what
was
on
all
of
our
Radars
was
being
data
driven
and
solution
oriented,
and
we
have
met
every
challenge
head
on,
whether
it
be
covet
flood
infrastructure
completely
under
invested
parks
department,
all
across
the
whole
spectrum
of
the
city.
It's
been
under
invested
from
a
capital
perspective,
the
needs
of
the
community
are
growing
and
we
we
have
to
make.
A
We
have
to
make
an
investment
and
the
more
we
put
it
off
just
like
we
did
20
years
ago,
the
more
expensive
it's
going
to
get
20
years
ago.
The
estimate
for
the
pool
house
and
the
pool
was
around
five
million
dollars
now
between
the
pool
and
the
and
the
pool
house,
it's
going
to
be
around
probably
seven
million
dollars,
but
that's
almost
a
quarter
century
ago.
A
So
these
these
topics
have
been
discussed,
and
you
know
if
someone
has
a
strong
opinion
of
that,
it's
wrong
to
replace
Crystal
Beach
and
we
can
repurpose
it
in
some
other
usable
fashion
rather
than
having
it
blight.
Our
neighborhoods
that's
a
totally
different
discussion,
but
so
far
in
Redevelopment,
in
City,
Council
in
parks
and
all
across
the
community.
No
one
has
even
suggested
that
we're
dealing
with
our
issue
set
on
Rick
to
the
best
we
can,
but
also
also
bringing
an
asset
back
to
life.
A
That
I
think
the
community
agrees
is
really
important
and
we're
doing
it
in
a
collaborative
manner.
I'll
mention
that
too
there's
lots
of
different
parts
of
our
local
government
involved,
but
we're
also
working
with
the
County
government
we're
finding
creative
ways
to
pay
for
this.
But
it's
it's
an
investment
in
Madison's
future
as
much
as
we
love
our
past.
The
only
thing
that
matters
is
the
investment
in
the
future
and
that's
pres.
A
That's
the
preservation,
but
it's
also
dealing
with
a
lot
of
Unfinished
Business
relative
to
housing
and
shopping
and
restaurants
and
destination
development
and
infrastructure
and
utilities
and
parks,
and
on
and
on
and
on
and
on
I,
certainly
didn't
campaign
2019.
As
being
the
mayor.
That's
going
to
go,
spend
10
million
dollars,
but
I
will
be
the
mayor
working
with
this
Council
that
spends
10
million
dollars
and
brings
in
100
million
dollars
of
private
capital.
That's
what
we
spend
every
day
through
Economic
Development
working
on
leveraging
our
resources.
N
A
A
We
put
all
the
parameters
out
there
because
again
we're
we're
talking
to
the
professionals,
and
we
also
have
lots
of
other
projects
that
are
out
in
the
bid
phase
and
some
bids
received,
and
we
are
seeing
how
expensive
things
are.
There's.
No.
If
there
was
a
cheap
fix
that
brought
the
pool
back
to
life
safely,
we
would
have.
We
would
have
looked
at
that
the
pool
was
rendered
structurally
on
sound,
unusable
this.
M
A
Well,
that
that's
that's
not
entirely
correct.
We
had
we
brought,
we
came
with
designers
renderings
of
what
we
proposed
and
we
accepted
public
input
of
what
was
proposed.
We've
taken
that
back
now
and
now
we're
finishing
the
design
stage.
So
none
of
this
is
hey,
let's
throw
it
against
the
wall
and
stick
at
all.
K
A
A
G
If
you
look
at
public
improvements
that
have
been
made
in
Madison
I
think
we'd
be
hard-pressed
to
find
something
that
has
been
used
and
enjoyed
by
more
residents
of
Madison
over
the
past
80
years
than
Crystal
Beach
continuously
for
80
years
and
we're
at
a
point
where
the
the
hens
have
come
home
to
roost
and
the
pool
needs
work.
And
if
this
Council
can
be
it's
a
lot
of
money.
I
agree.
G
J
My
name's
Mike
Greco
1106
E
Street,
you
know
as
far
as
comment
about
a
political
platform.
Pool's
got
nothing
to
do
with
politics.
J
I,
don't
think
anybody
here
is
foolish
enough
to
believe
that
that
pool
is
just
by
itself.
Gonna
pull
a
massive
people
in,
but
that
pool
along
with
Chautauqua
with
the
improvements
along
the
river
with
the
money
spent
on
top
of
the
hill.
That's
what
brings
money
in
and
I
think
it's
very
well
spent.
My
daughter
came
up
from
Tampa
I'd
like
to
think
she
came
up
to
see
me
which
is
coming
up
for
Chautauqua
and
she
researched
months
beforehand.
J
What
Madison
had
to
offer
she's
picked
out
all
kinds
of
trails,
to
hike,
different
places
to
see
and
I
think
that's
what
it
is.
This
is
just
one
small
project
that
will
pay
for
itself
and
the
modernization
from
you
know
every
Department
in
this
city
from
the
police
department.
You
know
the
Redevelopment
I
think
that
is
what
brings
people
in
you
know
just
roughly
about
what
is
a
Taurus
dollars
that
come
in
per
year.
Do
you
think,
oh.
J
And
I
mean
look
at
look
at
that,
I
mean
so
what
what's
the
return?
And
yet
you
know
not
everybody's
gonna
be
satisfied
with
the
pool,
but
I
think
this
is
the
best.
The
best
bet
and
there's
been
a
lot
of
thought
put
into
it,
and
so
I
just
I
appreciate
what
the
council
and
the
mayor's
doing
it's.
J
Bringing
people
in
I've
got
eight
friends
coming
from
Louisville
to
come
to
Chautauqua,
and
you
know
it's
not
just
Chautauqua
was
the
only
thing
that
brings
people
in,
but
those
are
eight
people
that
are
going
to
buy
Goods
here,
they're
going
to
pay
for
gas
here,
they're
going
to
pay
for
meals
here
and
a
couple
of
them
going
to
spend
the
night
here
so
I
think
it
does.
It
does
pull
people
in
when
everything's
put
together
and
I.
Think
it's
a
well
thought
out
plan.
O
S
hi,
my
name
is
Janet
klipfer
and
I
live
on
Cherry,
Drive
and
I.
Just
wanted
to
point
out
that
I
raised
my
kids
at
Crystal
Beach.
That
was
our
summer
thing.
We
just
did
it
every
day
and
a
couple
years
ago,
the
last
year
it
was
open.
Cali
was
a
lifeguard
there,
so
I
love,
Crystal,
Beach
and
I
want
Crystal
Beach
to
be
there.
O
A
splash
pad
could
be
built
outside
the
pool
because
it
doesn't
need
to
be
in
and
we
just
want
to
make
sure
I
mean
if
you
drove
by
Crystal
Beach
in
the
last
20
years
that
we've
been
going
there.
The
rim
is
lined
with
people
and
families
and
little
kids
splashing
around
the
edge
and
if
they
don't
have
access
to
that,
you
may
end
up
losing
people
who
aren't
comfortable,
don't
feel
comfortable
there
anymore.
O
B
H
C
I
Okay,
the
next
ordinance
is
ordinance
number
2022-21,
an
ordinance
of
the
common
Council,
the
city
of
Madison
Indiana,
amending
the
local
plan
for
expenditures
of
American
Rescue
plan
funds,
whereas
the

number
2021-7,
establishing
the
arpa
or

coronavirus,
local

Recovery
Fund,
which
was
appropriated,
which
appropriated
such
funds
to
be
used
in

with
the
local
plan
adopted
by
the
council.
Consistent
with
the
United
States
Treasury
final

governing
the

allowing

for
any
government
services,
whereas
the
city

hundred
and
forty
four

I
I
I
A
So
this
is
on
second
round
invite
Nicole,
shell
and
I
think
we
have
one
of
our
historic
district
review
board
members.
Mike
Pittman
is
also
here
anybody
else
on
historic
industry
review
and
we
also
have
Brook
Peach.
Who
is
our
preservation.
A
One
of
the
things
we
talked
about
early
on
was
updating
ordinances
guidelines
as
well
as
our
historic
district
survey.
Because
of
the
importance
of
being
able
to
properly
inventory
the
the
historic
assets
we
have
in
the
district,
which
is
approximately
around
2
000
structures
and
what
has
changed
since
the
last
update
our
last
inventory.
A
That
was
done
and,
as
you
know,
if
you've
ever
looked
at
one
of
these
updates
there's
a
great
history
about
Madison's
role
in
preservation,
but
also
what
goes
into
the
National
Historic
Landmark
district
and
the
integration
between
the
survey,
the
design
guidelines,
the
ordinance
and
and
then
also
looking
at
each
property
or
whether
or
not
they're,
contributing
or
not
contributing.
P
Sure
so
the
htvr
had
looked
at
design
guidelines,
starting
in
2017
with
changes
coming
off
that
board.
We
put
a
pause
to
those
and
one
after
a
grant
from
the
National
Park
Service
through
the
state
of
Indiana's
Department
of
Natural
Resources,
which
is
what's
helping
pay
for
those
design
guidelines
in
front
of
you.
We
were
awarded
that
Grant
in
2020
and
started
the
process
of
selecting
consultant.
We
received
three
beds
and
those
were
reviewed
by
members
of
the
historic
board.
P
We
selected
the
lowest
bidder
to
complete
the
guidelines,
which
also
happen
to
be
the
same
consultant
who
did
the
design
guidelines
in
2009,
with
a
review
team
of
myself,
Brooke
Peach
and
three
members
from
the
historic
board.
We
reviewed
about
six
different
drafts
before
taking
it
before
the
full
board
of
review
for
review
public
comment
and
approval.
We
opened
the
floor
for
public
comment,
I
believe
at
three
meetings
at
historic
board.
P
C
G
It's
in
the
proposed
it's
page,
117.
G
Design
standards
for
demolition
in
the
2009
guidelines,
there
are
two
one
that
have
been
left
out
from
this.
That
I
think
maybe
useful
and
helpful.
The
first
was
applicants
for
demolition
should
explore
possibilities
for
selling
or
reusing
historic
buildings,
preferably
on
site,
but
also
in
other
locations
as
alternatives
to
demolition.
Applicants
should
consider
mothballing
the
building,
which
involves
developing
a
strategy
for
halting
deterioration,
protecting
from
vandalism
and
stabilizing
the
building
structurally,
until
such
time
that
proper,
Rehabilitation
or
restoration,
May
commence
are.
G
Is
this
is
the
2009,
the
current
the
old
guidelines
and
well
current
until
yeah,
and
then
the
other
was
Demolition
by
neglect
occurs
when
a
building
is
allowed
to
deteriorate
through
a
lack
of
Maintenance?
It
is
a
self-imposed
hardship
that
will
not
be
considered
a
mitigating
circumstance
when
determining
economic,
hardship
and
I
I
think
it
would
be
useful
for
the
historic
district
beneficial
to
the
historic
district,
to
have
those
two
guidelines
added
into
the
the
new
design
standards
as
well.
Carry
them
over.
P
G
P
I
have
I
have
no
objections
to.
If
you
want
to
amend
the
ordinance
to
include
those
two
sections
we
can
get
those
the.
G
I
would
move
to
amend
the
design
standards
for
demolition,
to
include
paragraph
two
and
four
from
the
2009
design
guidelines
on
page
80.,
okay,
we
have
a.
G
A
G
I
Okay,
so
you're
talking
about
okay,
applicants
for
demolition
should
explore
possibilities
for
selling
or
using
historic
buildings,
preferably
on
site,
but
also
in
other
locations,
alter
as
alternatives
to
demolition.
That
paragraph
of
number
two
yeah
and
then
the
entire
paragraph
of
number.
Four,
which
demolition
by
neglect
occurs
when
the
building
is
allowed
to
deteriorate
through
lack
of
maintenance,
is
a
self-imposed
hardship
and
will
not
be
considered
as
a
mitigating
circumstance
when
determining
economic
hardship.
A
Yeah
I
think
you
can
take
that
word
out
all
together,
because
what
it
says
is
that
section
says:
applicants
for
demolition
should
explore
possibilities
for
selling
or
reusing
historic
buildings,
preferably
on
site,
but
also
in
other
locations
as
Alternatives
demolition.
A
Applicants
should
consider
mothballing
the
building
and
I
I'm
really
opposed
to
the
the
preference,
to
a
certain
extent
of
essentially
doing
nothing
with
the
building
for
a
very,
very
long
time,
which
has
created
a
lot
of
the
issues
we
have
now.
If
we
strike
that
in
it
just
says,
applicants
should
consider
developing
a
strategy
for
halting
deterioration,
protecting
from
vandalism
and
stabilizing
the
building
structurally.
Until
such
time,
the
proper
Rehabilitation
or
restoration
rate
commits
I
think
we
still
get.
M
C
B
C
I
All
in
favor
hi
in
the
opposed
Amendment
passes
anything
else
on
that
were
on
second
reading
on
this
ordinance.
A
Q
I
That
would
be
up
to
the
council
I
I,
to
my
knowledge
it's
not
going
to,
but
they
surprised
me
sometimes.
Q
Different
type
buildings,
what
they
suggest
you
do
and
what
you
don't
do,
and
so
I
was
I,
have
I'm
sure
I
don't
have
all
of
them
and
I
noticed
that
three
of
them
were
already
corrected
before
and
when
I
was
in
the
process
of
reviewing
it,
and
so
I
was
just
looking
at
what
you
might
look
at.
If
you
went
out
to
see
something,
and
so
I
have
a
list
of
seven
that
are
incorrect,
the
dresses
don't
match
the
photographs.
A
Me
try
to
find
those
those
mistakes
and
it's
Nicole's
still
here,
but
we'd
love
to
have
your
suggestions
and
we'll
incorporate
them.
I
Q
Q
Thank
you
and
I'm
thinking
many
times,
and
it
was
written
with
this
most
recent
Historic
District
board
of
review.
Q
It
stays
with
the
building
and
then
like
a
building,
permit
it
and
once
you
leave
then
you're
going
to
have
to
redo
it
a
building
permit
I'm,
not
for
sure
right
now,
if
it's
two
years
one
year
or
what,
but
in
the
past
it
was
I
think
a
year,
and
then
you
had
to
re-up
and
had
to
pay
again
with
the
COA.
It
doesn't
end
it
stays
with
the
building
doesn't
transfer
with
the
owner.
Q
And
so,
if
you
started
in
September
of
last
year,
then
about
August,
someone
will
come
around
and
take
a
look
and
they'll
actually
go
to
each
site
and
see
have
you
completed
or
have
you
started
and
if
you
haven't
started,
then
they'll
tell
you:
maybe
you
only
have
a
month
left
and
if
you
don't
start
your
project,
you
cannot
do
your
project.
You
must
come
back
in
and
get
another
COA.
You
must
go
back
before
the
board,
so
I
think
that's
something
that
can
be
I
have
a
voice
of
experience
from
that.
Q
Unfortunately,
and
also
I
understood
that
we
were
going
to
discuss
perhaps
in
the
future
a
survey
I
don't
know
if
you're
familiar
with
the
survey
I
don't
know
if
you've
got
a
copy
of
it,
it's
quite
long,
and
so
they
give
a
list
of
buildings
which
are
threatened
a
long
list
of
threatened
buildings
of
Madison.
Then
they
give
a
list
of
buildings
that
we've
lost
to
demolition
and
then
I
understand
too,
that
might
be
some
they're
not
even
mentioned,
because
I
was
driving
through
town
looking
at
a
lot
of
them.
Q
This
was
originally
my
hometown
and
I
was
saying,
there's
an
awful
lot
and
they
said
that
maybe
those
are
going
to
be
designated
or
classified
as
ruins,
and
so
I
guess
I'll
leave
it
for
another
meeting.
When
you
get
ready
to
talk
about
the
survey,
because
I
have
a
great
deal
to
say
about
the
survey
and
threatened
buildings
and
that's
everything
I
had
for
the
evening.
Thank
you.
I
R
R
So
every
every
situation
is
individual
that
comes
before
us,
so
we
try
to
treat
everybody
fairly
and
and
listen
to
what
they
say
and
give
them
something
they
can
go
back
and
improve
their
property
and
that's
and
do
it
safely
and
fortunately,
Brooke
is
a
great
deal
of
information.
So
does
Nicole
and
we
get
a
lot
of
help
from
the
building
inspector.
R
So
I
want
to
thank
you
guys
for
listening
to
this
and
and
reading
through
the
guidelines
we've
been
through
them
too
many
times
to
talk
about
it,
but
I
appreciate
what
you're
doing
and
I
think
it's
it's
a
good
job
at
taking
a
look
at
what
we've
had
for
the
last
few
years
and
and
revising
it's
probably
not
the
finished
work.
It's
not
going
to
be
perfect,
but
it's
better
than
what
we
had
before.
R
A
S
Hi,
my
name
is
Brooke
Peach
I
serve
as
your
city's
historic
preservationist
I
just
want
to
say
thank
you
for
your
careful
consideration
of
these
guidelines
because
they
are
so
extremely
vital
to
our
community,
we're
all
very
proud
of
our
historic
district,
and
we
recognize
that
it's
something
extremely
important
to
not
just
our
community
but
to
our
state
and
our
nation
as
a
whole.
Even
but
one
of
are
several
things
that
these
guidelines
do
is
it
helps
us
to
guide
development?
It
helps
us
to
protect
our
economic
investment.
S
It
helps
to
Spur
economic
development
in
the
city.
It
helps
to
protect
property
values
and
even
increase
those
property
values.
Buy
this
guided
development
that
the
standards
provide.
It
also
helps
us
as
Mr
Pittman
is
saying
the
board.
It
helps
them
to
apply
standards
so
that
every
application
is
reviewed
fairly
and
in
a
uniform
manner,
because
the
same
guidelines
and
standards
are
are
applying
to
any
project
and
it's
yes.
S
There
are
things
that
are
unique
about
every
project,
but
by
having
these
standards
it
does
give
definitive
measures
that
we
can
point
to
and
look
at
to
help
guide
the
board's
decision.
And,
lastly,
it's
a
huge
educational
tool
for
the
public.
One
of
our
main
goals
was
to
make
these
guidelines
easier
to
read
and
more
accessible,
including
more
diagrams
and
easier
language
and
easier
formatting.
So
we
don't
have
two
books
that
people
would
have
to
go
back
and
forth.
S
This
one
will
also
be
available
from
not
correct
in
searchable
format
online
so
that
you
no
longer
have
to
scroll
through
90
pages
to
go
to
the
appendix,
for
example.
So
I
just
want
to
you
know,
stress
the
importance
of
that
and
say
thank
you
again
for
your
careful
review
and
I
hope.
You
support
everything.
A
Well
and
earlier
I
started
with
this
whole
stack
of
documents
and
the
other
one
is
the
ordinance
and
that's
being
under
review
now
that
hasn't
been
Revisited
for
a
couple
of
decades
and
it's
time
to
revisit
that.
It
also
goes
in
ties
in
with
our
PACE
program,
which
has
been
very,
very
successful
in
promoting
preservation
and
blight
elimination
and
Public
Safety
and
quality
of
life
all
across
our
city.
A
Just
yesterday,
Board
of
Public
Works,
we
approved
the
third
quarter,
matching
grants
for
about
a
dozen
projects
downtown
and
it
was
about
144
thousand
dollars.
But
it's
going
to
create
almost
850
000
of
new
investment,
which
is
phenomenal
and
around
four
of
those
of
those
dozen
are
in
our
targeted
revitalization
areas
and
four
are
the
restoration
of
dilapidated
structure.
A
So,
throughout
the
course
of
this
year,
I
believe
over
two
and
a
half
million
dollars
has
already
been
invested
through
the
PACE
program
and
it
works
hand
in
hand
with
historic
district
guidelines
and
ordinances
on
the
board
of
review
and
and
the
survey
all
program,
part
of
it.
So
again,
lots
of
people
rowing
in
the
same
direction
to
bring
an
economic
impact,
but
so
much
more
than
that
to
our
community.
A
N
I
A
It
starts
with
the
census:
Rick
State
Statute
requires
all
towns,
cities
and
counties
to
evaluate
their
population
changes.
It's
broken
down
all
the
way
down
to
census
blocks,
so
we
hired
a
firm
that
that
actually
did
the
same
analysis
for
us.
At
the
last
time
we
evaluated
our
city
council
districts
in
2012.,
we
looked
at
population
deviations
and
then
there
are
standards
with
regard
to
what
those
deviations
be
and
we
concluded
through
that
those
analytics
that
they
were
within
the
acceptable
range
and
just
like
Jefferson
County.
A
A
I
know
it's
been
a
long
night.
There
are
a
few
things.
I
want
to
mention
real,
quick
before
before
I
get
to
it,
but
consistent
with
our
agenda.
Is
there
any
additional
public
comment
anybody
would
like
to
address
the
mayor's
office
or
city
council
tonight
had
an
opportunity
along
the
way,
appreciate
everybody's
input,
seeing
none
I'll
move
on
to
a
few
things.
I
want
to
mention
gear
up
for
a
great
Festival
Festival
weekend.
A
Here
in
Madison
we
have
four
at
least
four
things
going
on
in
Madison,
the
air
show
the
rodeo,
which
is
a
new
event
to
the
Madison
Jefferson
County
area,
the
Chautauqua,
the
Old
Courthouse
days.
Last
weekend
we
had
three.
This
weekend
we
had
four
plenty
to
do
for
every
buy
of
all
ages.
Look
on
visit,
Madison,
inc's
website,
you'll,
see
all
the
details
for
every
every
one
of
those
different
festivals.
A
I
want
to
mention
too,
that
we're
also
starting
the
discussion
for
the
renewal
of
the
winter
shelter
mou
at
the
Salvation
Army.
So
I'll
start
having
discussions
with
Captain
Janelle
Cleveland,
which
who
is
the
new
captain
at
Salvation
Army,
and
that
will
work
its
way
through
process
with
the
district
offices
for
Salvation
Army.
A
We
did
make
appointments
to
the
newly
formed
Regional
Development
Authority
board,
David
Ott
Dr,
Kevin,
Watkins
and
Ashley
Pennington
for
the
three
appointees
to
the
RDA
they'll
have
their
inaugural
meeting
I,
believe
it's
Thursday
I
think
it's
Thursday
throughout
Board
of
Public
Works
as
well
as
the
Redevelopment
commission.
We've
outlined
several
projects
that
we've
been
planning
for
several
years
that
are
now
making
its
way
through
the
bid
stage
awarding
of
the
bid
stage
and
now
we'll
be
breaking
ground
on
several
of
them.
Soon
we
talked
about
Crystal
Beach.
A
We've
also
received
our
and
and
Board
of
Public
Works
awarded
bids
for
our
Gateway
improvements,
as
well
as
the
Mulberry
Street
Arts
Corridor.
Both
of
those
projects
are
being
fully
funded
by
a
portion
of
a
2.7
million
Rady
Grant
Sunrise
Crossing
lift
station,
as
well
as
the
creation
of
the
sunrise,
Crossing
stormwater
detention,
Basin
and
maintenance
project
on
the
hilltop.
A
Lastly,
earlier
we
talked
about
a
water
project,
I
do
want
to
just
mention
too
that
at
the
next
council
meeting,
where
we
have
further
discussion
on
the
amended
plan
for
the
appropriation
expenditure
of
arpa
funds,
a
million
three
hundred
fifty
thousand
dollars
of
that
of
that
2.7
million
dollars
has
been
earmarked
for
long
overdue
Park
improvements,
which
will
include
three
parks
in
particular,
Crystal,
Beach,
Gaines,
Park
and
then
also
the
Georgetown
district.
A
With
regard
to
our
Underground
Railroad
project
that
we've
been
working
on
since
Stellar
back
in
2017,
so
really
happy
to
see
some
much
needed.
Capital
invested
in
upgrading
upgrading
our
Parks
I'll
pause
there
happy
to
answer
any
questions
from
anyone.
Thanks
for
advice,
participation
tonight
and
comment.
F
T
Saying
this
during
your
talk,
I
didn't
want
to
steal
your
thunder,
but
I
asked
Tony.
He
said
no.
You
should
say
that
so
I
was
late
to
the
meeting,
because
I
went
to
the
Bethany
Legacy
Foundation
meeting,
which
was
up
at
Rikers
Ridge
Firehouse,
so
it
was
4
30
to
6
I
ditched
out
to
make
it
here,
but
I
told
her
I'd
be
remiss
without
saying.
T
If
anybody
can
come
to
the
next
one
I
thought
it
was
awesome
because
you
know
they're
going
to
give
away
five
point
something
million
dollars
to
Jefferson
County
a
year
and
they're.
Now
letting
you
make
a
wish
list
for
the
things
that
you
want.
So
you
know
I
filled
out
a
lot
of
cards
today
for
you
all
that
today
was
the
that
was
their
second
meeting.
They
had
one
earlier
this
morning
at
Ivy,
Tech
and
I
forgot.
It
was
Tuesday.
T
So
the
next
meeting,
if
you
or
anyone
else,
is
interested,
is
September
the
27th
4
30
to
6.
It
will
be
at
the
Hanover
Community
Building
and
when
somebody's
coming
to
town
saying
what's
your
wish
for
6
million
a
year
I'm
showing
up
to
every
meeting
and
filling
out
the
same
cards,
you
don't
have
to
put
your
name.
So
she
had
a
really
great
discussion.
Said:
dream
big.
You
know,
what's
the
best
health
and
wellness
that
you
can
dream
of
for
Jefferson
County,
not
just
Madison,
and
so
there
were
only
eight
of
us
tonight.
T
She
said
there
were
about
60
this
morning
at
the
first
one
and
then
the
next
one
will
be
September
27th
and
from
those
you
got
to
put
a
sticker
on
the
things
that
were
most
important
to
you,
fill
out
your
wish
list
and
then
that's
how
they're
going
to
drive
how
the
first
money
gets
spent,
which
will
be
next
year
in
2023,
so
I
encourage
everybody
to
go,
get
those
cards
and
fill
them
out.
So.
