Description
Oklahoma City City Council for
Tuesday, August 29, 2017.
A
Well
good
morning
and
welcome
to
City
Hall
we're
gonna
get
started
with
the
invocation
and
the
Pledge
of
Allegiance.
Our
invocation
will
be
delivered
by
dr.
Paul
Kerr
boss,
he's
the
pastor
at
Westminster,
Presbyterian
Church,
welcome,
pastor,
it's
good
to
have
you
and
when
he's
completed,
that
will
ask
Councilwoman
Salyer
if
she'll
lead
us
in
the
Pledge
of
Allegiance.
But
would
everyone
please
stand
at
this
time.
B
Let
us
pray
god
of
grace
and
god
of
glory
as
we
approach
the
Labor
Day
weekend.
We
want
to
pause
to
give
you
thanks
for
all
the
people
who
labored
together,
to
make
our
community
the
wonderful
place
that
it
is
the
sharing
of
diverse
talents
and
abilities
and
the
willingness
to
take
on
all
the
varied
roles,
from
offices
to
schools,
from
factories
to
stores
from
farms
to
restaurants
and
in
so
many
other
ways.
B
We
pray
that
you
will
guide
this
council
in
its
work
today,
but
you'll
give
them
wisdom
and
their
decisions
and
kindness
in
their
decision-making
and
make
their
labor
today,
pleasing
to
you
and
as
we
pray
for
our
own
community,
we
also
pause
to
offer
our
concern
and
prayers
for
our
neighbors
in
East
Texas.
We
pray
that
you
will
build
them
the
arc
of
your
care.
Even
as
those
waters
rage,
we
pray
all
of
these
things
in
your
name,
amen.
A
A
All
right,
Claire
and
Ashley
don't
want
to
come
up
and
we
can
talk
about
a
new
program.
We've
got
and
I
think
yeah
Doug
come
on
up
here
as
well.
We
are
reaching
the
end
of
the
time
when
a
lot
of
people
in
Oklahoma
City
spend
time
outdoors,
but
we
all
know-
and
we
are
reminded
by
a
lot
of
public
service
announcements,
about
the
importance
of
putting
sunscreen
on
when
we
go
outside
and
we
see
melanoma
and
we
see
other
risk
that
the
Sun
can
cause.
A
C
I'll,
let
the
ladies
to
my
left,
explain
what
the
naming
and
the
marketing
but
we're
just
so
excited
that
they
came
forward.
The
Cancer
Institute
came
to
us
and
and
suggested
this
opportunity.
We
are
going
to
put
dispensers
at
all
the
golf
courses
so
that
golfers
can
be
reminded
on
a
regular
basis
as
they
check
in
at
the
at
the
club
houses
we're
going
to
have
them
as
many
of
our
interactive
fountains.
C
D
So
we're
officially
calling
this
initiative
a
son,
smart
city
initiative
and
our
hope
to
declare
Oklahoma
as
one
of
the
sun's
smartest
cities
and
doing
that
we're
going
to
be
installing
15
for
now
free
to
the
public,
sunscreen
dispensers
that
will
be
equipped
with
broad-spectrum
sunscreen,
with
sun
protection
factor
of
at
least
30
SPF,
to
hopefully
encourage
Oklahomans
to
utilize
these
devices
and
help
prevent
the
1
in
5
statistic
of
Oklahomans
being
diagnosed
with
skin
cancer.
Oh.
E
Well,
on
behalf
the
Stevenson
cancers,
our
mission
is
to
reduce
the
burden
of
cancer
for
the
whole
state
of
Oklahoma,
including
our
community.
So
we're
just
very,
very
excited
and
pleased
to
be
able
to
work
with
the
city
and
our
wonderful
parks
to
install
these
sunscreen
dispensers
and
hopefully
make
a
go
home
a
little
bit
safer.
A
A
All
right
now
we
have
a
group
of
seniors
who
have
come
to
see
us
today.
The
names
I
have
Linda
Smith,
Barbara
Johnson,
Billy,
Bill,
Ralph,
Bill,
maxi,
Vick,
helga
Vick,
Bonnie,
Menzel
and
John
men's
Dale.
You'll
come
up
here
and
stand
forward.
It
is
Senior
Center
Month
in
the
state
of
Oklahoma.
We
are
investing
broadly
in
these
types
of
constructions
and
activities,
and
programming
and
city
staff,
our
Parks
Department
working
to
provide
a
broad
array
of
services
and
opportunities
for
people
to
to
interact
and
get
healthy.
F
The
National
Council
on
Aging
recognizes
September
as
National
Senior
Center
month
and
has
tablished
senior
centers
master
in
aging.
As
this
year's
thing
now,
therefore,
Mick
Cornett,
the
mayor
of
the
city
of
Oklahoma
City,
does
hereby
proclaim
the
month
of
September
2017
as
Senior
Center
Month
in
Oklahoma,
City
and
caught.
He
calls
upon
all
citizens
to
recognize
the
special
contributions
and
efforts
as
Senior
Center
participants,
staff
and
volunteers
who
work
together
every
day
to
enhance
the
well-being
of
older
citizens
in
our
community.
Let's.
A
C
I
just
want
to
point
out
that
that
the
city
has
operated
two
senior
centers
for
a
long,
long
time
at
a
Will,
Rogers
Park
and
at
Woodson,
Park
and
and
the
staff,
and
some
of
them
are
represented
here,
as
well
as
as
participants
in
the
program.
We
do
a
dynamic
job
in
those
facilities
and
and
I'm
really
proud
of
of
the
new
programs
that
have
come
online
over
the
last
three
years
and
and
that
we
couldn't
do
it
without
these
folks.
C
But
I
also
want
to
point
out
that
the
mayor
just
got
a
letter
this
week
from
a
participant
in
one
of
our
newest
senior
centers,
the
maps,
three
health
and
wellness
facility
out
on
Rockwell,
and
it
I
really
would
like
to
read
a
few
excerpts.
If
I
may,
your
honor,
this
is
from
a
gentleman.
I
am
67
years
old,
I
live
alone
and
work
at
home.
C
There
have
been
many
days
when
I
did
not
leave
my
house
or
talk
to
any
other
human
being
I've
been
living
alone
for
a
long
time
and
have
come
to
prefer
that
lifestyle,
but
that
all
changed
on
April
14th.
When
I
made
the
radical
decision
to
join
the
new
Health
and
Wellness
Center
on
North,
Rockwell
I
went
to
my
first
teaching
class
three
days
later.
What
a
great
experience
that
was.
We
have
an
excellent
young
instructor
who
is
very
patient
with
us,
old,
geezers
and
gazettes.
C
His
words,
not
mine,
I'm
sure
we
must
be
looked
ridiculous
for
the
first
few
weeks,
I'm
a
third
I
attended.
My
first
chair
yoga
class,
again
they're
respectful
of
us
old
geezers
not
being
able
to
get
down
on
the
fluor
I
start
a
traditional
yoga
in
August.
I
could
go
on
about
this
class,
but
let
it
be
said
that
I
am
now
participating
in
three
separate
yoga
classes,
I'm
going
to
the
Wellness
Center
six
days
a
week.
Now
my
strength
is
stronger.
I'm,
more
flexible,
I
have
better
balance
and
I
feel
better
than
I
have.
C
In
years
with
the
opening
of
this
Wellness
Center
in
the
city
of
Oklahoma,
City
has
made
a
brilliant
investment
to
our
community.
The
returns
on
that
investment
may
not
be
easy
to
measure,
but
they
are
very
real.
I
want
to
thank
Oklahoma
City,
providing
this
life-changing
opportunity.
So
again,
September
is
Senior
Center
month
visit
our
centers
at
Will,
Rogers
or
Woodson,
or
our
newest
facility
out
on
Rockville.
Thank
you.
A
A
Madison
teaches
pre-k,
so
if
you
want
to
find
someone
with
some
patience,
here's
Madison
she
was
telling
me
also
that
she's
got
a
handful
of
students
who
are
reading
by
the
time
that
pre-k
lets
out
and
that's
these
are
four-year-old.
So
that's
quite
an
accomplishment.
Obviously
you
have
kids
developing
at
different
levels.
Okay,
you
have
some
advice
out
there.
If
they've
got
a
young
person
in
their
life,
how
do
you?
How
do
you
gauge
their
readiness
to
be
able
to
take
on
tasks
are.
G
They
basically
they'll
tell
you:
they'll,
show
you
you
know:
I
mean
if
they're
kind
of
dragging
their
feet
on
something
they
need
more
support
and
more
time.
But
you
know
I'll
have
students
that
they'll
open
up
a
book
and
they'll
say
here's
and
here's
a
big
and
they're
pointing
out
all
the
sight
words
they're
like
this
is
what's
happening
in
this
picture
and
then
it's
like
well,
okay,
then
we're
ready
to
read,
you
know,
I
mean
they
really
kind
of
tell
you
through
their
actions
and
their
interests.
G
A
F
Madison
Wingate
has
been
named
Teacher
of
the
month
for
August
2017
by
the
Oklahoma
City
Public
Schools,
and
the
Rotary
Club
of
Oklahoma
City,
whereas
Madison
graduated
with
honors
from
Texas
Tech
University,
and
it's
been
teaching
since
August
2013.
All
it's
a
pre-k
teacher
at
Pierce
elementary
school,
whereas
Madison
participates
on
the
PBIS,
the
positive
behavior
interventions
and
supports
committee,
whose
purpose
is
to
implement
a
proactive
approach
to
establishing
the
behavioral
supports
and
social
culture
needed
for
all
students
to
achieve
social,
emotional
and
academic
success.
F
She
is
also
straight
trained
teachers
for
the
PBIS
committee,
where,
as
Madison
strives
for
her
classroom
to
be
the
place
where
students
are
safe
enough
to
find
their
voice,
take
risk
and
be
themselves.
Madison
is
so
passionate
about
teaching
that
she
started.
A
Facebook
group
in
2016,
called
parents
and
teachers
of
Oklahoma
City,
unite
to
facilitate
communication
in
bridged
the
divide
that
seems
to
exist
between
parents
and
teachers
in
the
community,
Madison
credits,
her
teaching
career
to
her
family
legacy
in
every
generation.
F
On
her
mother's
side,
there
are
several
teachers
and
she
was
inspired
by
their
stories
and
dedication
to
become
teachers,
whereas
Madison
also
attributes
her
first
grade
teacher
for
influencing
her
decision
to
teach
due
to
the
love
and
support.
She
was
shown
as
a
young
student.
Now,
therefore,
be
it
resolved
by
the
mayor
and
council
of
the
city
of
Oklahoma
City
that
they
do
hereby
recognize

C
Thank
You
mr.
Stonesifer
Doug
Cooper,
director
of
Parks
and
Recreation,
most
of
the
people
that
have
frequented
our
nature
lovers.
That
frequent
martin
park
know
that
our
facility
has
been
closed
for
almost
a
year.
Now
we
have
completely
renovated
the
building.
We
have
moved
the
front
door
facing
the
parking
lot,
so
it
has
more
of
a
welcoming
element
to
it.
C
We
have
added
more
windows
to
it,
so
that
you
can
actually
view
out
into
the
nature
that
you
came
out
to
to
visit
by
going
to
martin
park,
nature
and
and
we're
in
the
process
of
creating
new
exhibits
inside
the
building.
But
it's
a
phenomenal
facility.
Now
it
was
a
great
facility
before,
but
this
is
even
it's
going
to
be
even
more
exceptional
going
forward
and
we're
excited
about
the
fact
that
the
city
council
supported
it.
C
P
N
Thank
you,
I
just
wanted
to
thank
the
Arts
Council
and
let
everyone
know
that
we're
entering
into
our
16th
year
in
a
partnership,
our
Parks
and
Recreation
Department
Doug
you've
been
on
stage
a
lot
today.
I
won't
call
you
back
up,
but
this
is
another
partnership
with
our
Parks
and
Recreation
Department
and
the
Arts
Council
of
Oklahoma
City
partnering
to
participate
in
art
in
the
parks,
and
this
will
continue
this
all
the
way
through
next
summer,
through
June
of
18.
N
O
But
that
was
because
of
this
project
was
gonna,
come
in
and
widen
it,
so
we
didn't
want
to
repave
the
two
lanes,
so
I've
been
explaining
that
to
people
that
have
called
and
asked
why
we
stopped
where
we
stopped.
So
this
is
the
fulfillment
of
that
whole
whole
mile
stretch,
they're
on
on
Sarah.
It's
the
memo
says
it's
going
to
begin
in
November
and
be
completed
in
March,
so
I
just
wanted
to
point
that
out
to
people
who
work
and
live
in
that
area.
Alright,.
A
A
A
Individual
considerations
on
the
concurrence
doc
all
right
cast
your
votes
passes
unanimously.
That
brings
us
to
item
nine.
These
are
items
that
require
a
separate
vote.
We'll
start
with
a
series
of
zoning
cases.
The
first
is
9a
one.
It's
an
ABC
issue
in
Ward,

S

Morning,
David
box,
5
2
2,
Colcord
Drive,
the
councilman
is
correct.
There
were
some
protests
at
the
at
the
early
onset
of
this
case.
If
you
look
at
the
map
in
front
of
you,
my
clients
actually
buying
a
total
of
10
acres,
so
they're
also
buying
the
land
on
the
other
side
of
the
creek
right
there,
and
when
we
sat
down
to
meet
with
the
neighbors,
the
neighbors
were
ok
with
my
client.
They
were
ok
with
the
use.
Their
only
concern
was
how
do
we
ensure
that
all
the
trees
that
are
there
are
preserved?
T
As
you
know,
you
can't
condition
approval
of
a
owning
case
like
this.
You
can
only
condition
approval
of
PUD,
Zoar
SPD's,
and
so
what
we
decided
to
do
was
we'll
come
back
with
a
PUD
after
we
get
the
o1
approved.
The
reason
we
couldn't
just
withdraw
the
o1
and
move
forward
with
the
PUD
is
the
people
that
own
this
land
would
not
grant
my
client
the
necessary
extension
of
time.
It's
that
we
worked
extensively
with
dr.
T
Cooper
and
James
powers,
the
Planning
Commission,
as
well
as
the
neighbors,
so
that
they
had
some
comfort
that
this
o1
application
is
just
a
bridge
gap
to
allow
us
to
move
forward
close
on
the
property.
You
will
see
this
case
again
in
October,
except
it
will
be
a
PUD
that
encompasses
the
entirety
of
the
site
that
puts
in
those
requirements
for
tree
preservation.
So
with
that
we
actually
had
the
neighbors
come
to
Planning
Commission
and
support
this
application.

A
T
David

fives
you
to
call
cord
dry.
This
is
a
spud
application
to
allow
for
the
bus
maintenance
facility
for
mustang
schools
in
visiting
with
council
McEntee
were
the
concerns
he
raised
was
Southwest
15th.
In
talking
to
the
engineers,
it
is
believed
that
the
primary
point
of
access
and
for
ingress
and
egress
for
the
buses
will
be
out
on
the
check
hall.
There
is
an
existing
stub
that
comes
from
check
hall
and
connect
to
the
eastern
side
of
our
property.
T
T
There
is
a
pretty
significant
natural
tree
buffer
on
that
south
side
of
this
property
that
will
remain,
and
so
with
that
there
were
no
protesters
out
the
Planning
Commission
we're
happy
to
work
with
Public
Works
as
we
move
forward
with
building
permit
and
see
what
additional
issues
might
be
necessary
for
for
street
improvements.
If
that
is
something
that
would
would
help
okay.
R
What
we're
the
reason
that
there's
some
questions
here
and
I
beg
your
forgiveness.
Most
of
you
have
schools
going
in
around
and
there
seems
to
be
a
common
occurrence
with
schools
when
schools
come
around,
traffic
builds
up
and
patrons
get
rather
short-tempered.
If
you
will
and
want
to
know
why
we
couldn't
do
things
in
a
little
more
expeditious
manner
to
facilitate
ingress
and
egress.
R
R
R
Which
will
add
more
traffic,
so
my
concern
was:
it
sounds
very
innocent,
a
bus
maintenance
facility
until
you
realize
what
really
that
night
mattered,
that's
a
parking
lot
or
a
bunch
of
school
buses
during
the
evening
hours,
while
they're
not
needed,
and
so
the
moving
of
all
those
buses
around.
It's
not
just
one
or
two
vehicles
back
there
that
are
getting
maintained
on
a
large
number
and
the
fleet
are
also
going
to
be
parked
there.
Are
they
not?
Yes,.
T
Sir,
and
it's
our
hope,
if
you
think
about
school
times,
that
we
believe
that
the
buses
will
exit
the
facility
before
the
morning
rush
and
we'll
be
back
to
the
facility
after
the
morning
rush
and
likewise
in
the
afternoon,
the
buses
will
be
out
and
back
prior
to
that
evening
rush.
So
we
believe
we
will
miss
the
peak
times
of
traffic,
so
it
was
to
avoid
the
concerns
your
you're
discussing
so.
R
A
W
J
A
A
A
P
A
Item
9c
is
an
item.
That's
up
for
final
hearing.
Today,
it's
been
before
the
council.
A
couple
of
times
has
to
do
with
some
enforcement
of
parking
downtown
and
other
places
there.
A
motion
to
approve
9c
is
there
anyone
here,
hoping
to
speak
on
9c
all
right
cast
your
votes.
It
passes
unanimously
in
item
9d
is
some
associated
fees
as
they
relate
to
item
9c
that
we
just
voted
on
there.
A
motion
on
9d
all
right
cast
your
votes.
It
passes
unanimously.
A
N
N
So
now
I'm
the
first
three
related
to
red,
Andrews,
Park
and
then
the
next
three
relates
specifically
to
the
plaza
district,
and
this
was
a
request
by
one
of
our
more
famous
residents.
Mr.
Wayne
Coyne,
the
flaming
lives
to
restrict
parking
on
one
side
of
the
street
into
the
class
and
tenpin
neighborhood
between
13th
and
16th,
and
these
are
residential,
neighborhoods
and
residential
streets
they're
narrow.
And
when
there's
parking
on
two
sides,
there's
no
opportunity
for
traffic
to
move
back
and
forth,
and
so
eliminating
traffic
on
one
side,
hopefully
will
facilitate
traffic
movement.
W
N
N
E
A
A
Y
As
you
can
see,
it's,
it's
had
a
fire
and
I
believe
is
in
July
it's
in
bad
shape.
It
will
probably
it
can
be
rebuilt,
but
it's
substantially
probably
not
feasible
to
do
it
from
understanding
from
talking
with
her
she's
she's
been
trying
to
sell
it,
but
she
didn't
have
a
contract
in
place
now,
we'd
be
and
and
if
she
does
sell
it
will
work
with
the
new
owner.
Also
on.
A
A
X
A
We'll
work
with
the
next
owner,
if
that's
the
appropriate
thing,
but
we
can't
on
behalf
of
your
neighbors,
we
can't
allow
the
house
to
stay
in
this
condition
and
stay
upright.
So
if
you're
not
going
to
sell
it
and
if
you're
not
going
to
tear
it
down,
we'll
probably
have
to
tear
it
down
for
you,
but
Charles
will
give
you
a
heads
up
on
all
of
that.
If
you'll
just
work
with
him
we'll
do
the
best
we
can
to
help
facilitate
and
get
it
to
your
satisfaction.
Yes,.
X
A
U
U
What,
oh,
my
goodness,
I
Maggie,
give
me
you're
going
on
this
one
this
time,
I
believe
that
this
is
definitely
a
structure
and
absolutely
100%
needs
to
be
removed
now
eat
it.
This
time,
man
I'm
gonna,
give
missile
this
time,
because
I
walk
right
in
front
of
falling
on
midnight,
but
at
this
time
it
is
a
very
good
to
believe.
U
I
believe
that
this
place
should
be
torn
down
and
have
we
contacted
owners
yet
on
it
to
give
them
opportunity
like
we
did
this
lady
here
I
think
it's
on
the
due
process,
a
fair
chance
to
give
these
people
an
opportunity
to
tear
it
down
or
rebuild
it
or
how
much
time
to
may
need.
What's
going
on
with
that,
alright.
U
Y
U
U
U
Day
that
now
see
now
everybody
who
now
who
lives
in
Ward
7
who
may
be
watching
this
would
have
an
opportunity
now
to
know
what
it
takes.
The
circumstance
in
situation
before
the
property
is
still
thinking
immediately,
that
it
be
torn
down.
That's
the
only
reason,
I
ask
them
questions.
Okay,
now,
so
the
first
time
you
contact
them
once
Winn,
okay,.
Y
U
First
time
was
over
16
now,
so,
in
other
words,
if
this
person
come
in
and
see
you
sometime
this
week,
they
may
give
an
opportunity
to
extend
having
to
turn
down
name,
because
maybe
they
can
find
a
developer
or
something
sure.
Okay,
that's
all
we
need
to
know.
Thank
you
very
much
but
again
pedis.
You
shocked
me
with
this
one.
You
did
too
right
this
time.

You
2012
in
an
effort
to
assist
with
completion
american
indian
cultural
center.
The
mayor
and
council
adopted
a
resolution
to
provide
nine
million
dollars
in
funding
toward
the
american
indian
cultural
center.
The
project
struggled
to
get
support
for
construction
costs
at
the
state
for
the
next.
H
It's
it's
filling
out
the
terms
and
conditions
of
that
resolution.
We've
been
working
on
this
for
some
time
this
past
summer
of
the
American
Indian
Cultural
Center
Foundation,
hired
Jim,
pepper
Henry
as
executive
director
of
the
AIC
cm
and
Jim
pepper
Henry's.
In
the
audience
needn't
stand
here.
Most
of
you
had
an
opportunity
meet
meet
with
him.
H
Jim
pepper
Henry
has
extensive
museum
experience,
including
the
Smithsonian
National
Museum
of
the
American
Hindi
of
the
American
Indian,
the
anchorage
museum,
the
heard
Museum
in
Phoenix
and,
most
recently
as
executive
director
of
the
Gilcrease
Museum
in
Tulsa.
As
we're
nearing
completion
of
the
agreement,
a
professional
proposal
was
introduced
that
would
move
more
of
the
funding
for
operations
to
pre-opening
preparation
and
operations.
H
Other
terms
include
the
American
Indian
ACA
aiccm.
Completion
cost
has
agreed
upon
to
be
65
million
dollars.
The
Chickasaw
enterprise
will
provide
up
to
15
million
to
support
unforeseen
requirements
over
the
completion
cost.
The
Chickasaw
Nation,
the
city
will
be
involved,
review
of
value
engineering
and
construction
plans
and
agreements.
The
Chickasaw
enterprise
will
provide
14
million
dollars
for
operations.
H
A
Finance
Committee
will
be
created
to
review
and
approve
the
American
Indian
cultural
museum
budgets
and
withdrawals
from
the
operations
escrow
account
to
members
from
the
city,
the
Chickasaw
enterprise
and
the
foundation
will
be
included
on
that
and
again,
that's
very
similar
to
how
we
handle
the
myriad
gardens
in
the
new
maps
tree
park.
The
next
steps
closing
on
this
agreement
and
the
agreements
with
the
omes
will
occur
at
the
same
time
and
should
take
about
90
days.
H
The
foundation
has
about
twenty
million
dollars
in
donations
at
this
time,
they're
continuing
their
work
to
get
the
collect
on
the
additional
commitments
that
they
have
to
finish.
The
construction
of
the
aicc.
The
city
will
provide
nine
million
dollars
for
completion
costs.
Twelve
months
after
the
Notice
to
Proceed,
we
anticipate
the
notice
preceding
mobilization
will
probably
take
place
in
October
the
city,
the
Chickasaw
Nation.
The
foundation
will
work
together
on
a
plan
for
sustainable
future
operations
of
the
AIC
cm,
and
mr.
H
H
Of
that
okay,
that's
item
cave
item.
L
is
a
Memorandum
of
Understanding
between
the
city,
the
state
of
Oklahoma,
the
AICC
MLD,
which
is
a
organization
which
is
solely
owned
by
the
Chickasaw
Nation,
the
aicc
Foundation
and
the
Native
American
cultural
and
education
Authority
for
review
of
construction
plans
and
agreements.
This
MOU
is
with
the
Oklahoma
Office
of
Management
Enterprise,
Services
omes,
and
the
previous
mentioned
organizations
that
I
just
mentioned.
H
This
MOU
ensures
that
the
city
and
the
Chickasaw
Nation
will
be
involved
in
reviewing
construction
plans
and
the
agreements
that
we
are
involved
in
value
engineering
to
manage
the
construction
costs
of
the
AIC
cm.
This
is
a
requirement
for
the
chicka.
There
is
a
requirement
for
a
Chickasaw
enterprise
to
provide
up
to
15
million
dollars,
runs
for
seat
costs
associated
with
the
AIC
cm
and
then
I
Adam
am
the
last
agreement.
H
Is
a
resolution
addressing
issues
related
to
closing
the
resolution
authorizes
the
mayor
to
sign
any
documents
for
closing
on
the
agreement
with
the
state
of
Oklahoma
and
the
Chickasaw
enterprise.
The
resolution
designates
the
Oklahoma
City
Economic
Development
trust
as
a
public
entity
to
contract
with
the
AIC
CF.
H
For
the
operations
of
the
museum
and
the
resolution
request,
the
OCE
Beatty
negotiate
an
agreement
with
the
American
Indian,
Cultural,
Center
foundation
and
entirely
matter
and
in
accordance
with
the
agreement
of
the
Chickasaw
enterprise,
and
it
just
kind
of
it
covers
the
closing
and
the
things
that
will
come
up
in
the
closing.
So
the
first
is
the
agreement
with
the
Chickasaw
sub
entity.
H
The
second
agreement
is
a
membrane
of
understanding
amongst
a
number
of
parties
for
the
completion
of
it
on
value,
engineering
and

and
this
is
just
a
resolution
that
we
do
in
in
bond
closings
and
such
that
give
us
the
mayor
to
authorize
to
finalize
any
documents
that
come
up.
This
has
been
a
significant
team
effort
as
we
as
we
got
to
this
point
and
I
want
to
recognize.
A
number
of
people
in

have

this
has
to
do
with
our
relationship
with
some
other
municipalities
inside
of
Oklahoma
County
right.
H
Its
its
judges,
it'll,
be
involved,
and
people
that
have
been
involved
in
I
do
want
to
point
out
that
we've
had
a
lot
of
people
involved
in
this
task
force.
Mara
cornets
been
involved,
I've
been
involved,
Judge
James
has
been
involved.
Chief
cities
have
been
involved.
Chief
Berry's,
been
involved
with
Shawn
Thompson
from
our
courts
has
been
involved,
so
we've
had
a
lot
of
people
that
are
there
looking
at
our
part
of
the
city
of
the
situation,
the
next
item
and
in
this
interlocal
agreement
is
an
entity.
H
That's
it's
similar
to
what
we've
done
for
regional
transit.
So
that's
it's.
The
same
format,
if
you
will,
for
that
part,
is,
is
we're.
Gonna
have
some
staff
to
help
implement
the
recommendations
that
came
out
of
the
Vera.
We
think
the
budget
will
be
about
$300,000,
so
we
came
up
with
a
formula
for
the
implementation
of
that
and
the
county
picks
up
the
1/2
in
the
city's
pick
up.
Half
and
the
city's
half
are
allocated
amongst
the
three
cities
based
upon
their
population,
so
our
piece
of
it
is
about
41
percent.
H
So
roughly,
if
it's
a
$300,000
budget,
our
cost
will
be
about
120,000
a
little
bit
over
that
as
we
go
forward
with
it,
and
this
is
gonna
be
a
little
bit
amorphous.
It
would
be.
We
don't
know
exactly
what
the
endgame
is
on
this,
but
we're
really
pleased
with
the
recommendations
are
being
made
and
I
think
it's.
This
could
be
one
of
the
more
impactful
things
that
we
do
for
Oklahoma,
City
and
Oklahoma
counties.
A
H
R
H
Well,
if
you're
gonna
go
Canadian
County
we've
got
to
go
Cleveland
County
I
think
we
decided
that
our
urgent
issue
was
probably
with
Oklahoma
City
and
in
Oklahoma
County.
We
wanted
to
focus
in
that
area.
That
doesn't
mean
this
couldn't
be
broadened
in
the
future.
Right
now
we
we
took
a
bite
that
we
thought
we
could
we
can
handle
at
this
point.
It
could
certainly
be
expanded.
No.
R
I'm
aware
that,
of
course,
you
know,
the
citizens
in
in
Canadian
County,
who
will
live
in
Oklahoma
City,
also
are
very
sensitive
to
do.
We
really
care
about
them,
or
do
we
only
care
about
people
and
quote
downtown
unquote,
and
this
would
seem
to
possibly
add
fuel
to
that
argument,
which
is
an
invalid
argument,
because
we
obviously
do
care.
So
that's
why
I
brought
it
up.
I
think.
H
O

All
right,
we

A
P
N
A
V
A
couple
of
things:
what
one
on
the
Wellness
Center
I've
I,
promised
this
patient
I
would
give
voice
to
her
concern.
Just
as
we're
learning
I've
had
success,
getting
a
lot
of
elderly,
especially
elderly
women,
to
do
aquatic
therapy
and
even
to
go
to
the
Wellness
Center
they
they
will
not
do
aquatic
therapy
with
other
men.
They
don't
want
co-ed.
So
that's
a
feedbacks,
just
my
small
anecdotal
experience
with
my
practice,
but
I
think
it's
a
real
phenomenon
that
I've
heard
over
many
years.
V
Just
oh,
if
we
might
and
I
have
a
call
in
to
the
director
and
I'm
sure
we
can
talk,
but
if
there's
some
time
maybe
we
have
period
in
the
pool
just
for
men
and
just
for
women.
I
think
that
over
so
that's
why
you
have
places
like
Mademoiselle
on
63rd
and
May.
Does
aquatic
therapy
just
for
women
is
I?
Think
a
lot
of
I
think
we
we
separate
age
and
I
think
also
maybe
by
gender,
will
help
with
getting
more
people
into
aquatic
therapy.
I'll.
V
You
the
second
thing
I
wanted
to
ask
so
last
week
there
was
an
article
in
the
Tulsa
world
about
legal
expenditures
by
EMSA
and
to
me
is
just
it's
very
concerning
it's.
It's
and
I
just
want
to
ask
Kenny
just
to
get
a
frame
of
reference
in
this
article.
Remember
three.
Three
years
ago
there
was
a
gentleman
that
worked
with
paramedics
plus
in
Texas,
who
filed
a
whistle-blower
claim
against
paramedics
plus
and
EMSA.
V
The
junior
attorneys
basically
charged
four
hundred
to
six
hundred
dollars
an
hour
and
the
paralegals
charged
em
said
two
hundred
dollars
an
hour
Williamson
to
two
weeks
after
it
was
first
brought
to
the
MC
board's
attention
asked
if
his
if
his,
if
he
could
have
hire
a
separate
attorney
for
him
and
have
those
expenses
reimbursed
to
him
through
MCA
and
he's
run
up
seven
hundred
thousand
dollars
in
legal
fees.
That's
about
seventy
seven
thousand
dollars
a
month
in
legal
fees
for
Williamson.
V
It's
about
two
hundred
thousand
dollars
a
month
in
legal
fees
to
EMSA
so
kenny
for
a
frame
of
reference
over
the
all
the
all
the
years
and
decades.
You've
been
here
as
a
city
of
Oklahoma
City,
ever
paid
any
attorney
for
any
division
of
the
city
for
any
purpose,
something
like
eight
hundred
and
twenty-five
dollars
an
hour.
V
Q
H
V
So
Steve
Williamson,
it's
the
highest
paid
public,
employee,
I,
think
in
the
state
it
makes
more
than
all
of
us
combined.
It
makes
about
10
times
more
than
our
mayor.
There's
the
governor
I
mean
there's
basically
no
public
employee
that
I'm
aware
of
that
makes
more
there
may
be,
but
not
that
I'm
aware
of-
and
that
was
my
concern-
is
that
he's
engaged
in
activity
which
there's
a
mountain
of
evidence
that
I
think
he
should
have
been
removed.
Many
many
years
ago
and
I
was
concerned
that
that
he
continues
to
draw
this
$250,000
salary.
V
But
now
the
bigger
issue
is:
if
anybody
thought
we
were
just
going
to
be
able
to
settle
with
the
federal
government
for
a
single-digit
fraction
of
the
19
million
dollars
that
they
were
originally
asking
for
we're
blowing
way.
But
we've
already
spent
two
million
dollars
and
now
they're,
asking
that
Tulsa
City
Council
tomorrow
to
raise
the
rate
from
$1,300
a
trip
to
$1700,
but
to
help
pay
for
these
extra
legal
fees.
They're
only
going
to
do
it
in
the
Eastern
Division
they're
not
going
to
do
it
in
the
Western
Division
I
called
a
Tulsa
city.
V
Councilor,
he
knows
nothing.
They've
had
none
of
the
briefings.
An
executive
session
like
we've
had
knows
none
of
the
allegations
the
feds
have
made
in
the
50
page
pleading
they're
completely
in
the
dark
and
yet
they're
gonna
be
asked
to
increase
the
transport
rate
by
$400
I,
guess
tomorrow
night
to
pay
for
these
exorbitant
obscene
legal
fees.
My
deposition
is
in
two
weeks.
They
told
me
to
block
off
six
hours.
I
mean
I,
guess
these
attorneys
are
coming
from
Texas
and
I'm.
V
A
very
peripheral
I
mean
we're
just
getting
into
really
starting
to
spend
the
money.
There's
gonna
be
millions
and
millions
of
dollars
this
month
right
starting
on
Friday,
you
know,
Oklahoma
City
residents
can
choose
to
opt
in
or
opt
out
of
the
EMSA
program.
It
starts
this
Friday
from
September
first
and
it
runs
through
September,
30th,
I,
I.
Think
I
for
me
personally,
I
have
to
opt
out,
I
mean
I
can
no
longer
it's
three
dollars
and
sixty-five
cents
a
month.
V
It's
not
a
great
deal
of
money,
but
I
would
encourage
those
who
are
considering
you
know
to
study,
what's
happening
with
them.
So
EMSA
would
have
you
believe
that
they
didn't
pay
kickbacks,
but
instead
return
to
share
of
our
profit
to
em,
so
a
standard
and
legal
practice
in
this
industry.
It's
not
it's
not
about
billing
practices.
You
don't
spend
seventy
seven
thousand
dollars
a
month.
It's
a
corruption
case,
it's
a
this
is
what
corruption
looks
like.
V
This
is
what
happens
with
corruption
and
fraudulent
activity,
and
then
the
amount
of
resources
and
money
that
that
it
requires
to
cover
up
and
defend
those
corrupt
practices
that
that's
what
this
is
about
is
that
for
15
years
you
had
millions
of
dollars
going
back
and
forth
and
there
was
nothing
in
writing.
There
was
no
contract.
There
was
never
any
stipulation
as
to
when
the
payments
would
be
made
or
how
they
would
be
calculated.
You
can't
reproduce
the
time
of
payment
or
the
amount
of
payments.
V
V
If
that
was
the
only
issue
and
said
this
has
just
gone
on
for
years
with
all
this
mountain
of
evidence
and
so
I
think
I've
called
for
Williamson's
to
be
removed
by
the
board
many
times,
nothing's
happening.
I
know
that
that
make
gem
and
others
have
made
efforts,
there's
no
movement
and
we're
spending
millions
of
dollars
on
on
these
attorney
fees.
Emsa
needs
to
replace
williamson.
V
They
need
to
admit
that
wrongdoing
show
us
the
structural
changes
so
that
this
can't
happen
again
and
I
think
they
need
to
agree
to
oversight
by
a
third
party,
whether
that's
state
or
the
feds,
or
somebody
else,
I.
Think
that's
a
critical,
critical
issue
and
I
would
ask
those,
especially
if
you
have
a
primary
and
a
secondary
insurance
if
you're
relatively
healthy,
you
may
consider
opting
out
this
month.
You
have
to
you,
have
to
opt
out
and
then
you'll
come
off
with
your
utility
bill,
three
dollars
and
sixty-five
cents.
V
But
at
some
point
we
have
to
do
something
different,
because
there's
there's
no
response
from
the
EMSA
board.
There's
no
response
from
EMSA
and
they're
digging
in
I
think
that
they
actually
believe
they
can.
They
can
convince
everyone
that
this
is
just
a
billing
issue
and
win
this
by
spending
millions
and
millions
of
dollars
in
attorneys
fees,
Thanks
all.
H
AA
Morning,
I'm
Julia,
Curt
and
I'm
here
to
talk
a
little
bit
about
a
study
we've
been
doing
over
the
last
two
years
and
thank
you
for
having
us
I,
think
being
here
on
the
day
when
the
American
Indian
Cultural
Center
agreement
moves
forward
and
when
the
plaza
district
festival
permit
gets
passed
is
really
appropriate
because
we're
talking
about
is
the
economic
benefit
of
Arts
and
Culture.
Here
in
the
city.
AA
Oklahomans
for
the
arts
is
a
statewide
arts,
advocacy
organization
and
we
work
with
different
partners
across
the
state
for
things
like
this
research
and
we're
really
proud
to
work
with
the
Oklahoma
Arts
Council,
which
is
our
state
art
agency,
and
to
work
with
the
Oklahoma
museums
association
across
the
state.
We
conducted
a
specific,
greater
Oklahoma
City
study,
which
you
have
in
your
hands
and
our
partners.
AA
There
are
allied
arts,
our
United
Arts
Fund
here,
Arts
Council,
Oklahoma,
City
and
the
city
of
Oklahoma
City
were
really
pleased
to
work
closely
with
the
office
of
arts
and
culture
who
have
been
invaluable
for
this
study
and
also
just
for
planning
and
coordinating
with
the
sector.
They've
really
helped
the
sector's
move
along.
AA
So
I'd
like
to
acknowledge
the
Oklahoma
City
Arts
Commission,
chair,
Liz,
Eichmann
who's
here
today,
and
the
staff
member
Robbie
Kenzel,
who
amazing
how
many
connections
she
makes
for
us,
and
this
study
really
looks
at
the
impact
of
arts
and
culture,
and
we
know
the
impact
on
education
and
on
community
building.
But
what
we
wanted
to
look
at
is
really
what
is
the
economic
return
on
investing
in
arts
and
culture,
especially
as
we
look
at
public
funding
for
the
Arts
and
the
importance
of
public
funding
for
the
Arts
at
the
state
level?
AA
That's
primarily
through
the
Oklahoma
Arts
Council,
which
is
our
state
art
agency,
provides
quite
a
bit
of
funding
for
programs
and
projects
and
community
outreach
here
in
Central
Oklahoma
and
then
at
the
city
level.
We
this
would
fall
under
commute
things
like
cultural
facilities
and
public
art,
of
course,
the
office
of
arts
and
culture,
and
then
programs,
like
we
heard
about
today
in
the
parks
so
looking
at
that
city
investment
and
what
is
that
return
to
the
economy
for
investment
in
arts
and
culture?
AA
K
Good
morning,
thank
you
for
allowing
us
to
present
to
you
this
morning.
We're
really
proud
to
be
able
to
bring
these
results
to
you,
and
thank
you
for
your
partnership
on
this
study.
I
just
want
to
give
you
some
of
the
highlights.
You've
all
got
the
full
reports
in
front
of
you,
but,
as
Julia
said
this,
this
study
is
really
about
changing
the
conversation
around
investing
in
the
arts
from
one
being
one
about
a
charity
to
one
about
investing
in
an
industry
which
supports
jobs.
K
The
this
study
is
the
largest
and
most
comprehensive
of
its
kind
ever
conducted,
including
cities
across
the
country
ranging
in
population
from
about
1500
to
around
4
million
and
even
in
those
smallest
communities.
We
see
a
real
economic
impact
from
the
activity
of
their
arts
and
cultural
organizations.
I
do
want
to
point
out
the
only
nonprofit
and
municipal
arts
agencies
are
included
in
this
study.
K
There
are
no
for-profit
entertainment
businesses
such
as
Broadway
or
motion-picture,
or
even
individual
artists
included
in
this
study,
while
they
are,
of
course
important
to
our
creative
ecology
they're
outside
the
scope
of
this
study
in
particular,
the
reason
for
focusing
on
nonprofit
specifically
is
because
much
of
government
and
philanthropic
dollars
are
directed
towards
those
entities,
and
so
it's
appropriate
for
those
funders
to
ask
what
is
the
return
on
their
investment.
So
this
study
really
answers
that
question.
The
methodology
used
for
this
study
is
very
conservative
and
reliable
I
won't
go
into
the
details.
K
You
have
that
in
the
report
there,
but
I
just
want
you
to
know
that
the
numbers
that
we're
looking
at
are
on
the
conservative
side.
For
example,
there
are
no
estimates
made
for
organizations
who
did
not
respond
to
our
survey.
While
there
are
more
eligible
organizations
out
there,
we
did
not
make
estimates
for
those
who
did
not
report
back
to
us.
K
So
before
we
get
into
the
Oklahoma
City
specific
numbers,
it
looks
like
our
labels
are
not
showing
up
correctly
up
there,
but
before
we
look
at
the
Oklahoma
City
specific
numbers
I
wanted
to
give
you
one
state
White
number,
so
that
you
could
see
how
Oklahoma
City
fits
into
the
bigger
picture.
The
blue
side
on
the
Left,
where
it
says
category
name,
should
be
organizational
spending
so
the
and
on
the
right.
The
red
side
is
audience
spending
this.
K
The
total
economic
activity
is
comprised
of
these
two
numbers
spending
by
the
organization's
themselves,
as
well
as
the
spending
by
their
audiences
who
are
attending
their
events,
so
in
statewide
the
economic
impact
was
eight
hundred
and
seventy
two
point,
eight
million
dollars.
So,
let's
look
at
Oakland
Oklahoma
City,
specifically,
this
is
greater
Oklahoma
City,
which
is
a
ten
County
region,
that's
defined
by
the
Chamber
of
Commerce
and
in
Greater
Oklahoma
City,
the
nonprofit
arts
and
cultural
organizations
spent
an
estimated
two
hundred
and
twenty
point:
five
million
dollars
in
fiscal
year.
K
2015
and
I
think
this
is
a
mythbuster
for
a
lot
of
people.
As
many
don't
realize
that
arts
organizations
are
also
businesses,
they
employ
people,
they
purchase
goods
and
services
within
their
community
they're
heavily
involved
in
the
marketing
and
promotion
of
their
regions.
In
short,
arts
organizations
tend
to
be
very
good
business
citizens
and
some
comparisons.
We
thought
you
might
be
interested
in
hearing
some
comparisons
to
some
of
our
other
peer
cities.
K
All
of
this
spending
that
we're
talking
about
by
the
organization's
and
their
audiences
supports
a
lot
of
full-time
equivalent
jobs
over
twenty
thousand
five
hundred
jobs
supported
through
the
spending,
and
you
know
our
arts
organizations
implore,
employ
a
lot
more
than
just
artists
and
musicians
and
curators.
They
also
pay
people
like
builders
and
plumbers
and
accountants,
and
printers
and
occupations
spanning
many
industries.
K
So
this
really
shows
that
beyond
their
public
benefit,
there's
also
a
significant
economic
return
as
a
result
of
the
community
investment
of
these
organizations,
like
all
industries
spending
by
arts
organizations,
has
this
measurable
economic
impact.
But,
unlike
most
industries,
the
arts
generate
a
bounty
of
event
related
spending
by
their
audiences,
which
is
kind
of
unique
to
our
sector
and
a
lot
of
that
spending.
Those
dollars
land
in
the
pockets
of
local
business
owners
like
parking
garages
and
retail
stores
and
restaurants,
hotels
and
even
local,
babysitters
and
I'm.
K
Sorry
that
the
category
names
are
showing
up
correctly
up
there,
but
it
this
is
a
breakdown
of
the
categories
of
spending
such
as
meals,
transportation,
souvenirs
lodging,
and
so
these
are
averages
that
our
audience
members
reported
in
the
2346
audience
surveys
we
gathered
in
Oklahoma
City
last
year.
So
this
is
what
the
average
spending
looks
like.
These
are
averages,
so
they
might
look
a
little
low
because
not
all
audience
members
reported
spending
in
every
category.
K
In
addition
to
asking
audiences
about
their
spending
information,
we
also
asked
the
attendees
to
provide
their
zip
code,
so
we
could
determine
whether
they
were
local
or
non
local
to
the
city
where
the
event
was
taking
place,
and
so
this
is
how
it
breaks
down
again.
I'm,
sorry,
it's
not
showing
up,
but
we
had
23%
of
those
attendees
were
from
outside
the
county
where
the
event
was
taking
place.
K
So
those
people
were
traveling
in
to
see
this
event
and,
as
you
can
imagine,
they're
spending
differs
from
the
locals
with
non-local
spending
almost
three
times
as
much
per
person
per
event.
Beyond
the
cost
of
admission
non
locals
are
spending
about
ninety
two
dollars
and
ninety
four
cents
each.
We
also
asked
them
what
the
primary
purpose
of
their
trip
was,
and
sixty-six
percent
of
them
said
that
the
arts
event
was
the
primary
reason
for
their
trip.
K
We
also
asked
the
locals
what
they
would
have
done
if
that
event
wasn't
taking
place
in
their
hometown,
and
53%
of
them
said
that
they
would
have
traveled
to
another
community
to
attend
something
similar.
So
we
think
that
these
data
really
show
the
power
that
the
arts
have
to
not
only
attract
visitors
to
a
community,
but
also
to
retain
locals
and
their
discretionary
spending
right
there
at
home.
K
K
They
identified
as
the
number
one
issue
affecting
city
leaders.
This
year
is
economic
development
and
within
economic
development
they
identified
five
key
subject:
areas
with
arts
and
culture
being
one
of
those
five,
so
they
are
really
recognizing.
The
significance
of
the
arts
to
developing
a
healthy
community
I
also
have
to
recognize.
There
are
local
partners
across
the
state
who
helped
us
to
make
this
a
truly
comprehensive
study,
and
we
just
wanted
to
give
them
our
thanks
in
this
public
forum
for
participating.
And
finally,
these
are
some
links
where
you
can
go
to
find
additional
information.
K
The
Americans
for
the
Arts
website
has
all
of
the
reports
nationwide.
The
Oklahomans
for
the
Arts
website
also
has
all
of
the
reports
statewide,
as
well
as
all
the
local
reports
for
here
in
Oklahoma,
and
of
course
you
can
contact
us
at
any
time
for
more
information.
If
you
have
any
questions
about
this
study.
Thank
you
so
much.
Thank.
Z
Just
a
quick
comment
if
I
may
I
would
encourage
your
group
to
explore
what's
happening
in
certain
other
major
cities
with
programs
like
tax
increment
financing,
the
Metropolitan
Museum
of
Art,
the
Museum
of
Modern
Art.
Their
TIF
is
just
beginning
to
expire.
Charlotte,
North
Carolina
has
tax
increment
financing
programs
in
place.
Z
H
AB
AB
As
you
can
see
on
the
next
slide.
Excuse
me:
the
police
department
measures
the
percentage
of
residents
citywide
reporting
they
feel
safe.
That's
that
actually
is
is
done
through
the
city
survey
process,
the
procedure
officers
who
have
received
procedural
justice
training,
the
percent
change,
the
number
of
people
incarcerated
for
admissible
charges.
That's
a
that's!
A
recent
tracking
of
some
of
the
things
that
that
the
courts
have
done
and
that
we've
worked
with
through
the
courts.
Also
the
number
of
prisoner
days
utilized
by
the
Oklahoma
City
by
Oklahoma
City
at
the
Oklahoma
County
Jail.
AB
So
the
next
slide
show
the
percentage
of
residents
citywide
reporting
that
they
feel
safe,
and
this
is
determined
through
the
survey.
That's
done
every
year
you
see,
since
2007
has
fluctuated
considerably
our
our
base.
Our
base
percentage
is
55%
that
we
established
in
2005
when
we
first
did
our
LFR
and
that's
what
the
survey
showed
at
that
point.
So
we
we
kind
of
base
it
on
that.
You
can
see
it's
fluctuated
over
the
years.
We
lost
some
ground
in
2016
down
to
48
percent
from
53.
AB
This
last
survey
that
just
came
in
we
just
got
the
results
from
this
summer
shows
that
that's
maintained.
That's
been
steady
at
48
percent.
Again
our
target
is
set
at
55.
You
know
a
lot
of
this
may
be
associated
with
crime,
but
it
may
be
associated
with
a
lot
of
other
things,
but
I
can
tell
you
in
the
first
half
of
2017,
both
our
person,
crimes
and
property
crimes
have
each
gone
down
by
4%
this
year,
we're
currently
sitting
at
53
homicides.
For
this
year.
AB
AB
So
the
next
slide
is
just
it's
really
just
a
definition
of
procedural
justice,
and
we
did
we
did
we
define
it
as
an
idea
of
fairness
in
the
process
that
resolve
disputes
and
allocated
resources
is
not
a
practice,
but
a
philosophy
and
movement
which
promotes
positive
organizational
change,
upholds
police
legitimacy
and
the
community
enhances
officer
safety.
Now
this
is
pretty
much
in
line
with
also
a
national
definition
that
best
practices
in
police
in
policing
or
have
across
the
nation
in
the
LFR
we
we
could.
AB
Our
procedural
justice
strategies
include
continue
to
review
and
revise
policies
in
our
teachers
continue
to
participate
in
community
outreach
through
continued
programs
and
partnerships
expand
the
concept
of
procedural
justice
to
employees
throughout
the
department
there
are
recruits
into
also
through
in-service
training
that
we
hold
annually
with
our
officers.
Now
we
also
also
one
of
our
strategies,
continue
the
implementation
of
body,
worn
camera
program.
AB
The
next
slide
shows
our
procedural
justice
initiatives.
Police
Department's
have
made
significant
progress
in
implementing
and
promoting
a
lot
of
the
procedural
justice
concepts.
We've
actually
been
pretty
aggressive
over
the
last
several
years
and
trying
to
take
a
lot
of
best
practices
throughout
the
country
and
implementing
those
within
our
own
Police
Department.
One
of
them
is
body,
worn
cameras.
As
you
know,
you
I
know
you've
been
following
that
we
have
100
body,
worn
cameras
out.
Now
we
received
a
grant
to
get
200
more.
AB
We've
changed
a
lot
of
procedure.
We
have
a
procedural
justice
policy
that
we've
read.
We
have
a
de-escalation
training
and
a
de-escalation
procedure
that
are
in
place
that
we
incorporated
the
escalation
training
almost
two
years
ago
to
a
certain
extent
and
have
grown
that
and
plan
on
incorporating
that
in
all
the
training,
with
our
recruits
and
with
our
officers
in
the
field
again
is,
it
is
a
best
practice.
We
we
have
an
extensive
procedure
involving
that
and
that
procedure
was
implemented
probably
about
six
months
ago.
AB
We
also
have
trained
on
implicit
bias.
We
actually
had
a
program
in
where
we
trained
the
trainer.
It
was
basically
certified
if
you'd
say
through
the
Department
of
Justice
and
the
bill
justice
administration,
and
they
came
in
and
actually
try
our
trainers
and
we
put
that
on
over
a
year
ago.
So
we
had
our
increased
community
outreach.
You
know,
I
could
probably
sit
here
and
talk
to
you
for
an
hour
about
some
of
the
things
that
that's
being
done
and
it's
we
really
have.
We've
really
really
upped
that
part
of
policing
within
this
community.
AB
We
did
a
lot
before
at
least
I
thought
we
did,
but
we
are
overwhelmingly
doing
so
much
more
now
that
we
have
been
in
the
past
and-
and
some
of
those
is,
you
know,
really
increasing
our
meetings
with
the
community
leadership's
really
throughout
the
community,
both
from
the
african-american
Hispanic
community.
Just
across
the
board.
We
have
a
very
dug
diverse
group
of
population.
Now
we've
increased
the
number
of
forums
over
race
and
police
relationships
like
by
quite
a
bit
we're
holding
quarterly
community
meetings
to
the
police
topics
in
our
divisions.
AB
We're
now
requiring
all
the
divisions
to
actually
have
these
neighborhood
quarterly
meetings
set
up
agenda
set
up
topics
of
interest,
things
that
might
be
relevant
and
anything
else
that
they
want
to
talk
about,
so
every
division
with
it
when
their
division
will
hold
those
with
it
at
their
locations.
Our
state
grant
funding.
We
have
a
significant
amount
of
state
grant
funding
that
we
received
last
year.
We
have
also
applied
for
more
money
for
next
year
and
have
some
initiatives
that
at
some
point,
if
we
receive
that
will
come
before
City
Council.
AB
You
know
in
the
in
that
grant.
We
really
do
try
to
address
the
high
crime
violent
crime
areas.
Some
of
it
is
some
traditional
over
time
with
more
officers
and
visibility.
The
one
we
did
northeast,
which
we
think
very
successful,
is
actually
getting
officers
out
of
the
police
cars
knocking
on
doors
talking
to
the
citizens
and
we've
gotten
a
lot
of
positive
feedback
and
right
now.
AB
We're
working
with
apartment
complexes,
with
septet
environmental
issues
and
again
tons
and
tons
of
community
forms
partnerships
with
Oklahoma
City,
public
schools,
Metro
Tech,
private
entities,
you've
all
heard
coffee
with
a
cop
there's
a
lot
of
other
individual,
smaller
initiatives
like
that
occurring
fact.
We've
changed
we're
changing
kind
of
the
direction
of
our
fact
program,
we're
working
closely
with
municipal
courts
with
our
juvenile
intervention
program,
which
I'm
really
excited
about
in
trying
to
take
referrals
from
the
courts.
AB
James
has
been
great
and
very
very
supportive
in
trying
to
develop
a
program
through
our
fact
program,
we're
going
to
call
it
JIP,
which
is
our
juvenile
intervention
program
and
then
beyond
that
create
leadership
for
for
individuals
that
come
out
of
that.
So
so
far,
we've
had
two
classes
and
we've
gotten.
AB
We
have
received
positive
feedback
and
I
should
shift
at
that
program
and
basically,
what
it
does
is
it
takes
takes
a
lot
of
the
those
those
juveniles
that
maybe
first
time
in
municipal
court,
that
they
would
they
would
remand
to
some
type
of
community
service.
Well,
they
have
to
go
through
about
six
weeks
of
this
program.
That's
it's
just
much
more
structured
when
they
get
out
of
that
and
they
complete
that.
If
they
do,
then
their
charges
will
be
dismissed
in
the
city
court.
AB
So
we
also
have
PAL
cadet
they're,
all
supported
with
grants
and
they're
all
supported
in
some
way
by
private
entities.
A
lot
all
of
them
being
very,
very
successful
at
this
point
next
slide,
please,
you
can
see
the
percentage
change
in
the
number
of
people
incarcerated
for
municipal
charges.
Twenty
twenty
six
percent
drop
2015
to
2017
courts.
I
mean
my
hats
off.
They
have
done
a
lot
over
the
last
several
years
and
the
things
that
they've
they've
initiated
to
help
make
this
happen
and
reduce
the
number
of
people
actually
incarcerated.
AB
We
we
have,
we,
we
have
done
things
within
the
police
department
in
sight
and
release
and
we're
also
looking
at
further
things
further
charges
that
we
can.
We
can
actually
reduce
that
more
I'm,
not
sure
you'll,
see
26%
from
here,
because
that's
a
significant
drop
but
I.
You
will
see
additional
reductions,
I
believe
in
the
Carson
race,
your
rate,
as
we
identify
more
charges,
we're
really
individual
don't
need
to
go
to
jail.
These
aren't
these
aren't
violent
charges.
AB
These
aren't
assaults
and
those
types
of
things,
but
they're
pretty
minor
charges
and
again
most
of
the
city
ordinance
charges
are
pretty
much
charge.
The
next
slide
will
show
you
the
number
of
prisoner
days
that
are
used
by
the
Oklahoma
Oklahoma
City
at
the
Oklahoma
County.
That's
a
42
percent
drop
and
a
lot
of
that
just
has
to
do
with
the
courts.
AB
The
courts
have
been
very,
very
aggressive
about
alluring,
letting
people
out
on
their
own
recognizance
under
a
certain
shorter
period
of
time,
automatically
that
they're
released
or
to
where
they
don't
have
to
post
bond
they're
doing
a
lot
more
than
I
think
they
hold
a
minimum
of
8
in
its
energy
ended.
She
and
she
hearings
a
week
now
to
try
to
keep
people
who
cannot
pay
out
of
out
of
jail
so
and
so
we're
just
putting
fewer
people
in
jail.
AB
We
are
not
putting
the
policies
that
were
changed
with
the
courts
in
the
police
department
that
anybody
that
has
failed
to
pay
and
they
have
a
warrant
for
them.
We're
not
putting
any
of
those
individuals
in
jail.
They
will
have
an
additional
court
hearing,
but
we're
just
not
putting
people
in
jail
for
not
being
able
to
pay
anymore.
So
that's
that's
part
of
that
reduction
of
that
42
percent
is
its
large
and
it's
also
saved
the
city,
a
large
amount
of
money,
our
contract.
Now,
as
a
result,
this
year
went
down
about
six
hundred
thousand.
AB
So
here's
the
problem
going
back
to
get
just
to
2015.
We
had
to
do
a
hand
count
because
we
didn't
track
it.
So
so
you
know
I
can't
probably
most
likely
beyond
two
before
2015
it's
going
to
be
pretty
much
the
same.
That
would
be
my
desk
because
a
lot
of
these
initiatives
by
the
courts
and
some
of
the
things
that
we've
done
didn't
did
not
occur
before
2015,
so
those
numbers
would
be
steady.
Now,
I
know
the
overall
overall
court
I
mean
overall
jail
population.
AB
That
at
different
points
went
was
extreme
I
mean
they
have.
You
know,
maybe
2200
it's
gone
up
as
high
as
2600
at
times
below
it
has
to
do
with
with
the
jail
actually
contracting
with
feds
to
house
prisoners.
So
I
can't
tell
you
how
many
were
hours
versus
versus
how
many
were
you
have
any
federal
prisoners
is
so
forth,
a
large
number
of
Steel
County
and
as
the
city
manager
alluded
to
with
the
task
force,
you
know
see
councils
work,
I
mean
this
city
camp.
AB
The
county
is
working
pretty
hard
within
the
courts
to
do
the
same
thing
and
that's
to
really
kind
of
process.
Individuals
in
the
county
jail
much
more
quickly
and
try
to
adjudicate
law,
their
cases
much
more
quickly
than
they
have
in
the
past,
and
they
are
working
on
some
things:
they're,
not
there
yet,
but
I
anticipate
that
that
business
also
create
a
significant
drop
of
the
jail
population,
because
a
lot
of
them
that
are
in
there
for
long
periods
of
time
now
or
felony
charges
they're.
Actually
under
the
state
charges.
Not
our
charges
is.
AB
AC
AB
They
know
I
mean
in
in
2014
we
had
almost
a
three
million
dollar
contract.
This
year
we
have
a
two
million
dollar
contract,
so
there
has
been
some
drop
in
Prior
even
prior
years.
I'm,
not
sure
I
can
tell
you
what
all
that
is
contributed
to,
but
from
you
know,
from
2014
to
15
and
went
from
about
3
million
to
26
to
about
2600
and
then
at
16
it
was
is
still
26
hundred
and
then
17
it's
about
to
me.
AB
Z
AB
Z
That
was
just
on
that
one
okay,
so
you
know
the
the
first
few
slides
you
showed
indicated
a
decline
in
feeling
safe.
Could
some
of
that
be
trimmed
to
events
occurring
throughout
our
country
and
people
see
that
on
TV
and
they
just
get
a
sense?
A
general
sense
of
unsafe,
like
this
could
happen,
even
though
we
haven't
seen
any
of
those
types
of
events
wrong.
Could.
H
Q
H
Z
But
the
citizens
do
have
an
opportunity
to
kind
of
change
that
on
September
12
just
you
know,
we
could
look
at
it
from
that
perspective.
I've
heard
about
that.
Yes,
and
then
chief
I,
know
there's
a
perception
that
multifamily
housing
units
apartment
complexes
are
a
source
of
problems
or
crying.
That
may
or
may
not
be
true,
but
this
isn't
directed
towards
you.
It's
really
for
the
council
to
consider.
Z
Maybe,
instead
of
as
we
go
forward
focusing
on
Tiff's
to
address,
you
know
economic
development
activities
in
the
downtown
area,
we
could
use
at
least
a
portion
of
Tiff's
or
some
other
means
to
put
back
into
especially
certain
apartment,
complex
that
have
historically
had
problems
somehow
find
financing.
It's
going
to
require
a
partnership,
maybe
even
new
owners
in
some
situations,
but
if
we
could
help
with
that,
as
in
terms
of
funding
to
to
not
allow
them
to
deteriorate,
to
the
point
where
they
just
automatically
attract
problem,
individuals
is
something
that.
H
Z
No
I
understand
I.
Think
part
of
the
problem
is
at
times
the
owners
are
more
concerned
with
cash
flow,
as
opposed
to
the
quality
of
their
units
and
they'll
just
take
any
kind
of
a
person
without
any
doing
doing
any
background
checks
such
as
previous
crime
monitoring.
What's
going
on
in
that
apartment,
complex
I'm,
just
saying,
I
know
money
isn't
always
the
solution,
but
as
a
council,
maybe
we
could
begin
thinking
in
terms
of
what
could
we
do
to
those
problem
areas
to
work
to
help
eliminate
some
of
those
problems.
W
D
meetings
over
at
Grant
and
I
got
to
say
that
first
one
I
walked
into
I
was
shocked
at
how
full
that
that
area
was
I
mean
it
was
almost
standing
room
only
and
I
think
the
second
one
was
just
as
successful
so
I
applaud
you
for
that.
I've
been
to
some
of
the
police,
cadet
programs
I
think
that's
a
wonderful
initiative
for
some
of
our
inner-city
youth
and
part
of
the
pilot
program
myself.
So
commend
you
and
the
officers
for
that.
So
I
just
wanted
to
say.
Thank
you.
Thank.
N
Know
if
I
could
just
also
make
a
quick
comment.
A
lot
of
us
attended
a
forum
yesterday
that
the
chamber
put
on
talking
about
the
September
12th
elections,
and
there
was
a
representative
mike
Layton
was
there
from
Boeing
who's
a
senior
vice
president,
and
he
was
asked
a
question
about
how
important
these
initiatives
are
for
business
and
business
decisions
and
one
of
the
specific
initiatives
that
he
picked
out
that
we
do
in
this
community
that
I'm
so
proud
of
is
there
were
merged
program
and
Chiefs
been
involved
in
that
from
the
very
beginning?
J
AB
N
P
B
P
AB
I
mean
we're
really
basing
ours
on
the
staffing
study
that
has
been
presented
to
Council
several
times
back,
one
back
in
2010
and
updated
the
numbers
in
2012
which
weren't
really
significantly
different,
but
but
the
right
now
we're
over
a
little
over
1,100
officers
and
that's
the
most
officers
we've
we've
had
since
I've
been
chief.
Now
kid
should:
could
those
numbers
need
to
be
greater?
Yes,
they
do
the
staffing
study
really
and
I.
AB
Stick
to
that
that
the
staffing
study
shows
the
numbers
that
we
need-
and
you
know
this
this-
this
sales
tax
with
this
sell
this
quarter,
cent
sales
tax
permanent,
would
add
one
hundred
and
twenty
nine
officers.
Now
the.
If
you
look,
if
you
look
at
it,
they
were.
You
know.
The
number
based
on
the
staffing
study
should
be
it
over
over
about
thirteen
hundred,
so
that
129
makes
a
very,
very
large
dent
in
that
in
that
number
for
the
future.
Thank
you.
AB
Have
yeah
this
city?
Really,
you
know
there's,
never
a
chief
will
always
tell
you
never
has
enough,
but
I'm
not
I'm,
not
going
to
tell
you
that
we
have
a
large
city
and
in
30
you
know,
I
mean
most
city.
If
you
compare
us,
you
know
that
we
they're
running
they're
running
our
size,
really
a
little
over
1300,
but
with
our
population.
Everything
I
think
this
city
would
we
needed,
probably
over
1300
total
at
some
point.
AB
A
AD
Happy
to
report
on
this:
this
is
a
new
council
priority
and
I'm
gonna,
be
speaking
to
the
social
initiatives
portion
of
the
council
priority.
Let's
see
if
I
can
work
the
remote
there
we
go
so
your
statement
that
you've
adopted
through
this
priority
I
want
to
focus
on
the
portion.
That
says
we
will
ensure
equitable
justice
through
increased
engagement
with
residents
and
community
groups.
We
will
support
our
partners
and
promote
access
to
social
services
that
facilitate
a
better
future
for
those
in
need.
AD
The
first
priority
are
the
first
measure
of
this
priority
is
the
number
of
homeless
persons
identified
during
the
point-in-time
count,
and
this
is
the
report
that
we've
just
been
able
to
complete
from
the
point-in-time
count
of
2017
and
you'll
have
copies
in
the
back
that
we
gave
to
council
support
for
you
to
look
at
afterwards.
This
is
an
annual
process
that
we
go
through
every
year.
It's
actually
required
to
be
done
every
other
year
for
all
of
the
different
agencies
that
receive
HUD
homeless
assistance
funding,
but
we
do
it
annually.
AD
The
Planning
Department
plans
and
organizes
this
event,
and
the
work
is
done
with
about
30
different
partners
and
agencies
and
multiple
volunteers.
This
is
a
snapshot
in
time.
It
is
a
one-day
count
of
those
that
are
in
emergency,
shelters,
transitional
housing,
day,
shelters
at
mill
sites
and
on
the
street.
This
survey
provides
information
on
demographics,
health
and
the
situation
of
those
that
are
homeless.
It
helps
us
to
find
the
most
vulnerable
people
and
prioritize
them
for
housing.
It
gives
us
and
our
partner
agencies,
information
on
planning
for
assistance
of
those
programs.
AD
Here's
a
table
that
shows
our
point
in
time
count
over
the
last
five
years.
You
might
notice
there's
a
fluctuation
in
the
total
number
of
people
that
were
able
to
count
each
year.
That's
a
result
of
many
factors,
including
weather
conditions,
on
the
day
of
the
count,
the
different
counting
methods
and
different
methods
that
were
able
to
house
people
and
keep
them
housed
throughout
the
years.
AD
So
we
do
like
to
break
the
numbers
down
and
one
of
the
things
that
the
point
in
tiny
account
helps
us
identify
and
reach
out
to
as
those
who
are
chronically
homeless,
chronically
homeless
or
people
that
have
a
disabling
condition
have
been
continually
continuously
homeless
for
a
year,
and
there
are
other
criteria
too,
that
they
might
be
homeless
on
different
occasions
over
the
last
several
years,
but
totaling
a
combined
length
of
time
of
a
year.
So
you'll
see
that
there's
a
genuine
general
downward
trend.
AD
Since
2013
this
year
there
were
254
individuals
that
were
counted
as
chronically
homeless
and
that's
a
12%
decrease
from
2016,
but
a
21%
decrease
from
2013.
That's
the
year
that
we
joined
the
100,000
homes
campaign,
which
was
a
precursor
to
our
current
program,
called
journey
home,
OKC
and
I'm,
going
to
talk
a
little
bit
about
about
that
in
a
minute.
So,
in
terms
of
real
world
estimates,
the
point-in-time
count
is
that
snapshot
in
time.
The
estimate
is
typically
four
to
five
times.
AD
The
number
of
couch
homeless
in
Oklahoma
City
is
really
uncertain
to
us
right
now,
but
we
do
have
a
measure
in
that
the
Oklahoma
City
public
school
district
does
a
survey
of
students.
Last
year
there
were
five
thousand
four
hundred
seventy
four
homeless
children
enrolled
and
approximately
eighty
percent
of
whom
are
couch
homeless.
AD
AD
AD
So
we
have
multiple
programs
that
we
provide
funding
to
for
a
total
of
about
4.6
million
dollars
per
year,
and
that's
both
in
federal
grant
funds
and
some
City
appropriations,
except
for
one
caveat,
is
that
the
different
federal
programs
can
only
be
applied
to
very
specific
populations
for
specific
uses,
so
I'm
going
to
go
through
each
of
these
quickly.
The
first
one
is
the
continuum
of
care
grant.
This
program
provides
permanent
supportive
housing
with
case
management
and
support
services
to
homeless
people
with
and
families
with
disabilities.
AD
So
the
focus
of
this
program
is
called
the
housing
first
approach,
which
provides
housing
first
to
individuals.
Then
it
wraps
support
services
around
them
so
that
they
can
remain
housed.
Typically,
that
approach
prioritizes
those
who've
been
on
the
street
longest
or
at
the
most
are
the
most
medically
fragile,
and
these
are
the
people
who
are
the
hardest,
a
house
and
the
most
expensive
to
serve
when
they're
left
on
the
street
or
in
a
shelter.
AD
So
over
the
past
five
years,
HUD
sometimes
have
bonus
funds
that
are
available
and
it's
a
competitive
process
to
get
additional
funds
and
we've
applied
for
those
funds.
Every
year
and
four
out
of
the
past
five
years,
we've
received
additional
funds
that
we've
been
able
to
contribute
to
this
program,
totaling
about
a
million
dollars,
and
what
we're
proud
of
is
that
the
number
of
permanently
housed
individuals
just
last
year
was
736
people.
AD
The
next
program
is
the
emergency
solutions.
Grants
Program.
This
provides
rapid
rehousing
services
to
it's
mostly
for
families
in
addressing
family
homelessness,
and
most
families
are
not
chronically
homeless,
but
they're,
really
more
in
need
of
prevention
and
emergency
housing
and
and
the
ability
to
get
rehoused.
When
something
happens.
So
through
this
program,
over
4300
people
were
served
just
last
year.
AD
We
also
have
a
very
specific
grant
program
for
housing
with
persons
with
AIDS,
and
this
provides
specialized
housing
and
services
for
people
living
with
AIDS
and
for
people
who
have
family
members
living
with
AIDS
248
people
were
served
just
last
year
and
then
there's
the
city's
social
services
grants.
This
is
something
that
City
Council
makes
a
specific
allocation.
AD
This
is
a
very
flexible
source
of
funding
for
our
city,
because
we're
able
to
provide
supplemental
funds
or
matching
funds
to
the
agencies
that
we
are
currently
partnering
with
for
specific
programs
as
needs
arise
throughout
the
year,
and
this
is
really
the
only
source
of
funds
that
we
allocate
to
providers
of
stand-alone
employment
services
to
help
people
get
going.
Some
of
our
partner
agencies
have
benefit
from
these.
You
might
recognize
their
names
urban
lake
center
for
economic
for
employment
opportunity
and
be
the
change
and
often
times
these
providers
that
we
partner
with
are
small
organizations.
AD
AD
N
AD
AD
This
is
an
example
of
when,
when
funds
are
limited
or
funds
are
very
specific
and
targeted,
or
you
can
only
do
so
much
with
what
you
have
by
pooling
resources
and
pulling
together
and
getting
creative,
you
can
achieve
a
lot
more,
so
the
city
can
provide
support
through
all
of
our
different
sources
of
funding
the
continuum
of
care,
the
emergency
solutions,
social
services
grants.
We
can
leverage
all
of
those
different
resources
through
this
program.
AD
The
second
progress
indicator
is
about
the
number
of
federally
assisted,
affordable
rental
housing
units.
So
the
source
that
we're
tapping
into
for
this
is
this:
national
housing
prevention
or
preservation
database,
and
it's
updated
tri
annually
in
March,
August
and
December.
So
we
have
fairly
new
information.
It
combines
a
lot
of
different
resources
that
receive
federal
assistance.
You
can
see
on
the
left
the
many
different
resources
that
receive
federal
assistance
and,
when
you
add
all
of
the
different
units
up
that
provide
assistance,
it's
about
8,000
units
in
Oklahoma
City.
AD
The
caveat
about
this
is
that
about
half
of
those
8,000
units
have
subsidies
that
are
now
expiring
in
the
next
decade.
So
that
means
that
they
may
or
may
not
remain
affordable.
They
may
become
market
rate
and
we
are
not
replacing
affordable
units
at
the
same
rate
to
replace
those
units
that
we
may
lose
so
I
wanted
to
talk
quickly
about
our
demand
for
affordable
housing
in
Oklahoma.
AD
But
if
people
that
are
in
that
moderate
income
bracket,
we
have
more
than
enough
housing
to
supply
that
demand
so
107
for
every
100
homes
that
are
available.
Another
note
about
this
is
that
we
estimate
over
70%
of
the
rental
housing
units
of
low
and
moderate
income
might
be
considered
substandard
conditions.
So
we
have
a
lot
of
work
to
do
in
terms
of
providing
new
housing
and
also
making
sure
that
we
can
rehab
existing
units
to
bring
them
up
to
standards.
So
quality
and
quantity
are
both
factors
so.
N
Can
we
remind
the
listeners
today
that
is
part
of
the
bond
issue?
That's
up
for
vote
on
September
12th
is
an
affordable
housing
component.
That's
in
the
economic
development
piece
correct,
ten
million
dollars
of
that
is
set
aside
for
affordable
housing
and
so
roughly
allocated
at
a
million
dollars
a
year.
Yes
ma'am.
That
would
help
that
would
really
help
and.
AD
We
do
have
some
other
programs
through
our
Community
Development,
Block,
Grant
and
home
programs.
The
city
supports,
affordable
housing,
supports
rental
and
homeowner,
affordable
housing,
so
we're
able
to
provide
funds
to
do
rental
housing.
You
might
recognize
some
of
these
projects,
like
the
steel
yards
and
breakdown
and
the
meadow
cliff
apartments.
AD
The
owner-occupied,
affordable
housing
program
that
we
have
also
helps
build
new
housing
and
renovate
and
Rehab
existing,
affordable
housing,
and
we
work
with
different
nonprofit
agencies
like
community,
our
community,
housing
development
organizations
or
our
Chodos,
and
overall
we
put
about
200
to
300,
affordable
housing
units
in
the
market,
either
rehabbed
or
named
each
year,
and
then
I
just
wanted
to
make
note.
But
this
is
not
just
our
issue
about
the
lack
of
resources,
it's
a
federal
issue
and
that
our
funding
is
reducing
for
housing
and
social
services
everywhere.
AD
Oklahoma
City's
allocations
last
year
fortunately
remained
steady,
but
they're
still,
proposals
active
at
the
federal
level
to
eliminate
CDBG
and
cut
HUD
resources
by
six
billion
dollars
in
2018
nationwide.
The
need
that
is
estimated
to
provide
repairs
to
public
housing
reaches
about
30
billion
dollars,
but
the
current
funding
posle
is
about
1.85
billion
dollars.
AD
In
addition,
proposed
section
8
program
funding
levels
may
eliminate
vouchers
for
up
to
a
hundred
and
forty
thousand
families,
and
that's
because
there's
a
surge
in
rental
housing
demand
and
a
scarcity
of
available
units
which
pushes
the
rent
price
up
it
makes
fewer
vouchers
available.
So
this
is
a
nationwide
issue,
and
cities
are
trying
to
bridge
the
gap
and
do
as
much
as
they
can
to
support
that.
AD
We
try
to
partner
with
as
many
people
as
we
can,
who
each
do
a
part
of
something
that
can
become
a
greater
whole,
and
so
that's
where
we're
headed
with
our
programs
I,
wanted
to
give
you
a
more
thorough
overview
of
this
issue,
since
this
is
a
new
council
priority
and
we'll
continue
to
track
it
and
report
our
progress
back
to
you.
If
you
have
any
questions,
I
wanted
to
also
mention
Chris
Varga
who's,
our
division
head
for
Housing
and
Community
Development
is
here
also
Jared,
chatted
and
Stacy
Tarpley.
C
Good
morning
again,
mayor
and
city
council
duck
copper
director
of
Parks
Recreation
and
cultural
services,
and
this
is
one
of
your
newer
priorities
that
that
we're
thankful
that
that
you
also
realize
how
important
the
health
and
wellness
of
our
citizens
towards
their
quality
of
life
is
going
forward
some
of
the
priority.
Obviously
this
is
our
the
the
main
definition
of
this
priority
from
you
all,
and
we
are
striving
to
make
that
a
reality.
C
The
the
indicators
are
percentage
of
citizens
report,
regular
leisure
time,
physical
activity
percent
of
citizens
within
a
half
mile
of
a
trail,
a
recreation
facility
or
a
park
percentage
of
citizens
satisfied
with
maintenance
of
city
parks.
Obviously,
this
is
very
important
because,
if
they're
not
properly
maintained,
people
aren't
going
to
want
to
use
the
parks
and
then
a
percentage
of
the
citizens
that
report
using
an
Oklahoma,
City
Parker
attending
a
park
program
more
than
ten
times
a
year.
C
The
the
citizens
that
were
surveyed
this
particular
year
showed
that
the
only
forty-one
point
four
percent
of
the
population
is
actually
participating
in
in
some
kind
of
leisure
time
activity
as
we
go
through
our
slides.
In
fact,
miles
will
go
to
the
next
slide:
I'm,
not
sure
that
we
might
have
hit
the
right
citizens
or
something
along
those
lines.
If
you
look
at
our
athletics,
we
went
up
nearly
5,000
participants
in
our
athletics
program
alone,
this
this
past
year
so
and
we're
on
target
to
hit
13,000
of
our
youth.
C
At
least
majority
of
this
is
youth,
but
but
that's
quite
an
increase
to
have
a
41%
that
says
that
they
participating
in
programs.
Our
aquatics
was
down
this
year
because
our
family
Aquatic
Center,
Will
Rogers.
Unfortunately,
first
two
weeks
of
our
swim
season
was
closed
due
to
pump
issues
and
things
along
those
lines.
But
again,
overall,
our
Earlywine
Center
came
back
this
year.
They
they
were
able
to
compete
with
the
more
facility
that
opened
last
year
and
killed
us
going
forward.
Our
recreation
centers
are
booming.
We've
got
a
lot
more
activities
there
as
well.
C
This
seniors
number
does
not
reflect
the
opening
of
the
Rockwell's
facility.
These
numbers
obviously,
will
we'll
jump
up
for
the
next
time
that
we
have
the
survey
done,
but
again,
these
we,
we
still
have
as
many
as
30,000
people
participating
in
Will,
Rogers
and
Woodson.
These
are
pay-as-you-go
programs
participants,
these
numbers,
so
we
are
generating
some
revenues,
but
we
are
still
a
social
event.
People
are
still
coming
to
meet
their
friends
and
hang
out
there
just
not
participating
in
the
fee
based
programs
and
that's
what
those
numbers
are
based
on.
What
you
see
there?
C
Some
of
the
new
wellness
programs
that
we
have
one
of
our
most
successful
than
that
downtown
area
is
yoga
at
Bicentennial
Park.
It's
been
very
successful.
A
lot
of
city
employees
have
been
participating
in
that,
but
again,
we've
got
other
partners
that
are
providing
programs.
The
Belle
Isle
neighborhood
has
contracted
with
a
neighbor
to
to
teach
basketball
elements
at
our
facility
of
Belle
Isle
Park.
It's
just
one
of
the
many
opportunities
that
the
neighborhoods
are
even
participating
in
in
programs
going
forward
to
bring
new
health
and
wellness
activities
some
of
our
partner
groups.
C
These
are
the
traditional
ones
that
you
see
up
here.
Boys
and
Girls,
Club
fields
and
futures
is
investing
in
our
parks
to
help
provide
additional
soccer
facilities,
the
after-school
network,
the
public
schools,
police,
athletic
leagues,
but
again
the
healthy
living
facilities
out
there
on
Rockwell
and
and
we're
real
excited
about
the
upcoming
opening
of
the
campus,
the
Capitol
Hill
Maps
facility
to
add
to
our
partner
groups.
One
of
the
new
ones
in
here
that
I'll
talk
about
a
little
bit
further
later
on,
is
the
national
fitness
campaign
and
that's
an
exciting
opportunity.
C
I
think
for
all
of
Oklahoma
City
going
forward
citizens
within
a
half
mile
of
our
recreational
facilities,
we're
still
at
65.3%,
which
I
think
is
a
pretty
quality
number
and
again
not
to
take
the
wind
out
of
out
of
councilmember
McAtee
sails
or
any
of
the
rest
of
you,
but
hopefully
on
September
12th,
we'll
be
able
to
celebrate
some
opportunities
to
expand
out
into
those
areas
of
the
city
that
we're
not
serving.
One
of
the
areas
that
we
will
be
remapping
again
will
be
around
the
Rockwell
Maps
facility.
C
26.2
percent
of
our
our
citizens
reported
that
they
used
a
park
ten
times
a
year.
Again,
if
you
look
at
our
athletic
numbers
and
our
aquatic
numbers,
you
know
I,
don't
know
who
we
were
reaching
with
this.
This
particular
survey,
but
and
again
I
can't
challenge
the
the
scientific
significance
of
these
surveys,
but
I
think
the
reality
is
is
we
are
getting
a
lot
more
participation?
Maybe
it's
not
as
high
as
ten
times
and
that's
something
we
have
to
work
on,
but
but
I'm
not
too
upset
about.
C
This
number
I
think
we're
moving
in
the
right
direction
and
I
think
you're.
You
will
see
in
a
new
numbers
going
forward
citizens
satisfied
with
the
maintenance
of
the
city.
We
we
slipped
a
little
bit
this
year,
but
again
sixty
six
point.
Five
percent
of
our
citizens,
like
the
way
we
take
care
of
our
parks,
I,
do
want
to
point
out
I,
don't
know
how
many
of
you
on
council
have
ever
seen
the
Bricktown
canal
empty
there.
You
have
it
so
the
crews
were
in
there
squeezing
the
mud
and
stuff
out
of
there.
C
Ironically,
the
most
things
we
found
in
there
this
year
were
skateboards,
so
I
guess
they
were
skateboarding
the
edges
and
and
miscalculated,
and
they
sang
this
again
in
2014,
when
I
stood
before
you
and
told
you
that
you
are
the
largest
health
care
provider
in
the
city
of
Oklahoma,
City
alone,
Oklahoma
County
in
Canadian
County
and
Cleveland
County.
This
came
out
of
our
national
publication
this
year.
C
It's
proving
a
point
that
that's
all
parks
and
recreation
departments
are
starting
to
realize
how
important
health
and
wellness
is
to
the
quality
of
life,
something
that
you
all
can
be
proud
of,
because
you've
been
investing
in
that
for
over
20
years
and
again,
I
think
on
September
12th.
We
hope
to
see
that
investment
continue
forward
park,
maintenance
and
improvements.
C
We
had
158
projects
planned
out
of
the
2007
general
obligation
bond
since
2015
91%
of
our
our
funds
have
been
expended
or
encumbered
80%
of
our
funds
for
those
bonds
that
you
authorized
the
sale
of
for
park
purposes
in
2016
already
80
percent
of
those
have
been
expended
or
encumbered.
So
we've
got
a
lot
of
great
projects
that
are
coming
to
fruition.
C
One
of
them
is
the
expansion
of
soccer
opportunities
at
South,
Lake,
Soccer,
Complex.
Obviously,
Military
Park
was
was
another
one
of
those
mowing
this.
This
is
a
reality.
We're
now
mowing
5500
acres
with
the
advent
of
the
water
trust
real
estate
that
we
added
that
the
water
trust
is
paying
us
to
maintain
now
going
forward
again,
our
frequency
for
the
third
season
in
a
row.
We
are
doing
most
of
our
neighborhood
parks,
if
not
all
of
them,
every
two
weeks
weather
permitting.
So
so.
C
We've
we've
come
down
from
the
three
to
four
weeks
and
when
I
got
here
in
14,
we're
doing
them
every
two
weeks
and
I
think
that
has
shown
drastic
improvement
to
the
neighborhoods.
We
aren't
getting
as
many
calls
these
days
on
Dallas
grass
problems
as
we
did
in
14,
one
of
the
real
big
projects
that
we're
real
excited
about.
This
is
a
hundred
percent
handicapped,
accessible
baseball
diamond
out
at
route
66.
C
The
green
is
not
grass
that
is
rubberized
safety
surfacing
the
the
running
paths
are
rubberized
safety
surfacing,
so
we
will
be
able
to
teach
kids
in
wheelchairs
or
on
crutches
how
to
play
the
American
pastime
of
baseball
out
at
route
66.
So
we're
excited
about
going
under
construction
later.
This
fall
for
that
facility.
It's
going
to
be
a
great
addition
to
our
our
inventory
of
facilities
out
at
route
66
again,
Military
Park
came
online
this
year,
awesome
public-private
partnership
again
going
back
to
the
economic
impact
of
arts
that
you
heard
earlier.
C
The
Vietnamese
community
contributed
a
very
nice
art
feature
in
that
Park
to
the
tune
of
almost
two
hundred
and
fifty
thousand
dollars
to
add
to
the
quality
of
our
facilities
going
forward
in
that
neighborhood
in
the
Asian
district
and
again,
the
health
and
wellness
center
at
Rockwell
I've
talked
about
that
quite
a
bit
today,
but
again,
an
awesome
operation.
A
great
investment
that
you
all
put
into
it,
the
Will
Rogers
trail,
which
it
used
to
be
called
the
I-44
trail,
is
far
under
construction
and
we're
looking
forward
to
that.
C
This
will
bring
more
opportunities
to
more
neighborhood,
stretching
from
Hefner
to
the
river
to
be
able
to
get
out
and
get
exercise
again
contributing
to
their
their
well-being
and
their
quality
of
life.
This
is
an
exciting
opportunity,
will
close
some
loops
that
we
have
across
the
city.
This
photograph
is
is
one
of
those
things
that
we
hope
to
bring
to
our
city
city.
C
C
This
is
a
one-stop
shopping,
family-oriented
type
of
facility
where
we
can
provide
a
gym
like
workout
for
free
in
the
neighborhoods
again
rubberized
safety
surfacing
the
physically
challenged
can
workout.
Here
you
use
your
own
body
weight
as
the
the
the
weight
elements
in
this
workout
and
we're
looking
at
placing
at
least
four
of
these
through
the
2007
Geo
bond
program
across
our
city
and
I.
Think
this
will
be
a
great
opportunity.
C
The
national
campaign
is
looking
possibly
at
selecting
the
city
of
Oklahoma
City
as
their
number
one
city
for
their
hundred
city
campaign,
so
we're
excited
about
them.
They've
been
here
and
visited
our
facility.
They
like
what
they
see,
and
they
are
this
close
to
designating
Oklahoma
City
as
their
number
one
city
for
their
100
city
campaign.
That
will
kick
off
in
18
and
with
that
I'd
be
happy
to
answer
any
questions.
All.
V
Was
a
last
year
there
was
a
Rand
study,
looked
at
175
cities
and
looked
at
usage
of
city
parks
and
they
identified
two
groups
that
are
underrepresented.
One
is
the
elderly,
representing
only
like
four
percent
of
users
of
city
parks
and
the
other
was
girls,
especially
teenage
girls
and
I.
Think
you
I
think
you
had
some
of
that
data
in
there,
but
they
said
the
number
one
thing
for
seniors
was
walking
loops.
It
seems
like
we
have.
We
have
maybe
more
walking
loops
than
other
cities,
but
going
forward
with
with
part
projects.
C
Be
a
tough
question:
a
hundred
and
sixty
parks
I
think
we're.
Probably
a
minimum
of
forty
facilities
have
walking
paths
in
them
or
they
are
adjacent
to
the
major
trail
systems,
but
you
have
20
projects
underway
right
now,
and
the
majority
of
those
20
2007
geo
bond
pride
have
walking
trail
elements
in
them
right
now,
great
they're,
under
construction.
It
is
a
the
number
one
requested
item
through
all
surveys
going
back
to
the
early
2000s.
C
S
A
U
You
for
this
opportunity
three
minutes
is
not
long,
but
I'll
try
to
lock
it
in
first
of
all,
I
want
to
thank
lustrous
people
before
this.
Well
esteem
will
gather
talent
I
like
this
idea.
Chief
Bill
citty
came
up
with.
We
got
in
a
log
Ettore
agreement
with
the
city
of
Edmond
city,
Midwest,
City
and
Oklahoma
City
County,
creating
the
Oklahoma
County
criminal
justice
advisory
committee.
U
And
I
quite
wonder:
why
being
a
communication
meeting
I
understand
that
you
know
but
really
seriously
speaking
often,
you
have
a
community
development
project
like
this
and
exclude
one
of
the
front
primary
persons,
political
activists
and
social
reformers
here
in
Oklahoma,
County.
There's
no
question
I!
U
What
you
want
to
name
it
in
that
we
can
relieve
some
of
overcrowding,
and
this
is
why
we've
had
so
many
people
who
have
lost
their
lives
in
an
overstuffed
County,
Jail
they're,
so
fit
for
2000
as
the
state
of
just
beyond
their
capacity.
So
in
that
regard,
I
think
we
need
to
look
at
that
as
far
as
the
capacity
and
then
I
thought
that
you
people
have
up
here,
that
we
need
to
try
and
do
something
with
that
contract.
Nice
ace
you
saved,
six
hundred
thousand
I
mean.
U
Why
would
you
want
to
save
some
money
like
that
when
we
see
there's
a
big
problem,
that's
going
on
in
the
county
jail
with
the
contract
you
have
with
the
city
has
with
the
county
jail.
Now
it
seemed
like
to
me
I'm
trying
to
figure
out
myself
I'm
trying
to
do
my
studies
here.
Why
is
it
we
have
to
take
the
people
from
the
city
and
over
stacked
them
in
a
County
Jail,
just
to
have
a
contract
with
them?
U
Well,
you're
going
to
have
depleted
funds
for
food,
clothing,
housing
and
various
other
amenities
that
goes
along
with
that.
So
in
that
take
and
then
I
think
again,
I
would
like
for
y'all
to
consider
now
be
back,
probably
submit
a
proposal,
probably
a
week
or
two
in
that
we
disregard
this
contract
with
the
county
jail
in
that
the
city
do
its
duty.
U
Instead
of
contracting
someone
I
like
the
prison
system,
does
I
mean
if
you
come
back
and
say:
let's
have
our
own
city
jail,
it
seemed
like
I
mean
it'll,
be
less
killings,
there'll
be
less
people.
Excuse
me
Melissa
people
for
food
and
needing
food,
there
be
less
medical
problems
and
people
get
into
proper
medicare
and
in
that
regard,
I'd
like
to
get
rid
of
the
clothes.
That's
about
saying
one
last
thing:
mr.
green:
well,
you
did
outstanding
with
that
suggestion
of
a
line
TIFF
to
be
earmark
are
redirected
toward
the
inner
cities
apartment
complexes.
U
That's
very
well
needed
now.
A
lot
of
our
people
today
don't
have
the
finances
that
are
necessary
to
deal
with
the
problems
of
drug
addiction.
I'm
gonna
tell
you
the
truth.
That's
no
need
in
hide.
How
can
we
heal
a
wound?
If
we
don't
tell
you
what
the
real
source
of
it
is?
Yes,
we
have
a
lot
of
gangbangers
in
our
communities.
We
have
a
lot
of
people
doing
drugs
in
these
apartment
buildings.
U
We
have
a
lot
of
people,
that's
drunks
hanging
around
doing
that
Ninian's
apartment
buildings,
and
yet,
if
they
had
some
other
viable
social
programs
you're
earmark
and
to
divert
their
attention
from
these
things
and
let
inner
city
leaders
come
in
and
have
a
actual,
maybe
of
gathering
where
they
can
set
these
people
down
and
talk
to
them.
Families
in
thing
things
would
be
much
better.
So
yes,
so
you
did
a
great
job,
but
we
may
need
to
take
a
situation.
