Oh

L
A
H
A
A
A
Alright?
Obviously
this

event.
That's
been
around
a
long
long
time
and
is
a
top
triathlon
in
the
area
so
mark
you
got
to
be
pretty
proud
of
this
all
right
motion
and
a
second
item.
6F
cast
your
votes.
It
passes
unanimously
or
recessed.
A
council
meeting
convenience,
the
Oklahoma
City
municipal
facilities,
Authority
I,
think
we
got
a
presentation
from
Christian
New
York.
N
I
should
mention
you
have
a
much
more
detailed
budget
available
to
you
in
your
packets,
but
I'll
just
be
giving
you
a
brief
overview
of
the
changes
in
FFA
and
PPA
as
a
reminder
to
the
citizens.
These
are
trusts
that
the
city
utilizes
to
host
a
variety
of
functions,
everything
from
workers,
compensation,
the
property
and
liability
to
Civic,
Center
and
capital
projects.
The
reason
we
utilize,
the
trust
is
because
we're
afforded
some
advantages
in
the
trust
in
that
we're
able
to
engage
in
multi-year
contracts.
N
There
we
are
so
if
we
zoom
into
the
OSI
MFA
and
look
at
the
budget
by
function,
we
can
see
that
health
insurance
comprises
the
the
largest
portion
of
the
the
pie
there
at
66%
are
nearly
65
million
dollars.
This
is
going
to
be
for
our
active
employee
insurance,
followed
by
workers,
compensation
at
about
12
million
general
purposes
and
other
eight
million
information-technology.
N
This
can
be
things
like
our
software
licensing
for
city
computers
at
right,
at
7.6
million,
advanced
capital
funding
at
six
million,
and
then
property
and
liability
for
city
property
at
2.6
million,
and
then
a
very
small
piece
for
unemployment
at
225
thousand.
That
totals
us
out
to
right
at
109
million,
which
represents
about
a
7%
increase
over
prior
year.
N
When
we
drill
into
the
expenditures
by
category
other
services
and
charges
make
up
the
vast
majority
of
it,
and
once
again,
this
is
going
to
be
paying
for
our
insurance
and
all
those
other
functions
that
are
stored
there.
Almost
all
of
them
are
some
type
of
fresh
professional
service.
Beyond
that
we
have
some
transfers
at
five
point:
one
nine
percent
and
then
relatively
small
pieces
for
capital
outlay
and
reserve
at
less
than
one
percent
of
piece
getting
us
back
to
that.
N
109
million
College
Google
as
we
look
at
the
PPA
and
my
general
rule
of
thumb,
for
distinguishing
between
PPA
and
the
MFA
is
that
the
PPA
tends
to
be
our
outward
facing
services.
Where
you
find
things
like
the
Civic
Center
Golf
MFA
tends
to
be
our
inward
facing
things
where
you
find
our
software
licensing
insurance
for
our
employees
and
so
forth.
But
as
we
look
at
the
budget
by
function,
we
can
see
that
Fairgrounds
is
the
largest
piece
of
that
at
just
over
thirty
point.
Six
million
or
forty
four
point.
N
Five
percent
in
this
function
primarily
is
composed
of
debt
service
for
revenue
bonds
by
the
hotel-motel
tax.
The
second
largest
category
is
maps
contracts
at
thirteen
point,
three
million
or
nineteen
point
four
percent,
and
then
golf
represents
the
third
largest
at
ten
point.
Nine
million
or
fifteen
point
nine
percent
with
performing
arts
bring.
In
about
ten
point,
nine
percent
of
the
budget
and
then
smaller
portions
on
being
out
there
for
economic
development,
natural
gas
and
there's
TPP
a
capital
reserve
and
then
our
bids.
N
So
if
we
look
at
our
revenues
by
source
a
little
bit
more
variety
than
we
saw
before
the
vast
majority
of
that
is
going
to
be
thirty,
one
percent
or
twenty
one
point:
four
million
coming
from
fund
balance
and
once
again,
a
lot
of
that
has
to
do
with
timing
because
of
the
multi-year
nature
of
the
trust.
But
twenty-one
point
four
million
of
that
number.
Sixteen
point:
five
is
dedicated
for
fairgrounds
development,
so
that's
by
and
large
what
the
fund
balance
is
being
utilized
for.
N
If
we
look
at
our
transfers
from
hotel-motel
tax
at
twenty
point,
four
percent
or
fourteen
point-
eight
million-
that
represents
our
second
largest
source
and
then
followed
by
a
few
smaller
sources
such
as
transfers
from
the
general
fund
transfers
from
various
other
funds.
I
forgot
to
mention
the
golf
course
revenue
also
represents
about
fourteen
point,
four
million
or
twenty
percent
in
total.
N
A
few
smaller
pieces
there
that
service
transfers
and
materials
making
up
less
than
twenty
percent
of
the
rest
of
it
I'm
getting
us
back
to
our
68
million
dollar
settlement
and
with
that
I
know
giving
you
a
lot
of
information
in
a
very
short
period
of
time.
But
if
you
have
any
questions,
we'll
be
happy
to
try
to
answer
this
all
right.
Questions.
A
A
Is
there
a
motion
on
the
PPA
all
right?
We
have
a
motion
and
a
second
comments
or
questions
on
the
PPA.
All
right
cast
your
votes.
It
passes
unanimously,
we'll
adjourn
the
LCP,
be
a
convene
at
the
Oklahoma
City
environmental
assistance,
trust
we
have
a
motion
and
a
second.
Are
there
any
comments
or
questions
on
the
EA
T
all
right
cast
your
votes.
It
passes
unanimously.
Well
the
gern,
the
OCE
eighty
and
reconvene
the
council
meeting
with
the
consent.
Docket
all
right
is
there
in
the
individual
consideration
of
the
list.
F
O
O
P
I
P
It
sold
to
a
California
real
estate
group
and
for
20
years
they
made
promises,
none
of
which
were
kept
and
in
September
of
2015.
The
federal
court
took
it
back
because
the
property
was
unable
to
pay
its
electric
bill,
despite
the
fact
that
everything
around
it
is
thriving
in
our
office.
Wood
tracks,
somewhere
around
a
hundred
projects
going
on
in
the
court
any
given
time
from
large
maps
projects
down
to
restaurants.
P
So
the
question
is:
how,
in
the
world
is
a
1.1
million
square-foot
historical
building
like
this
sit
vacant
when
everything
around
it's
doing
well,
Jim
Parekh
was
tasked
with
the
assignment
of
going
and
finding
the
best
largest
redevelop
errs
in
the
country
to
come
to
our
city
and
redevelop.
First
national.
You
would
think
it
would
be
a
fantastic
time
to
do
that
here.
P
You
got
a
billion
dollars
of
public
support
and
amenities.
No
debt
surrounding
it.
You've
got
the
great
whole.
Arguably
one
of
the
greatest
pieces
of
art
ever
constructed
in
this
region
of
the
country
you've
got
an
economy
here,
that's
doing
well,
you've
got
a
national
economy,
that's
recovered
and
you've
got
interest
rates
that
are
favorable
for
development.
P
September
January,
the
11th
of
2016
My
partner
and
I,
signed
the
contract
and
exactly
365
days
later
on
January
the
11th
2016.
After
about
two
million
dollars
of
due
diligence,
trying
to
make
sure
that
the
building
could
actually
handle
and
accommodate
what
our
plan
was.
We
closed
and
bought
the
building
and
began
about
a
40
million
dollar
process
of
getting
the
building
ready
for
construction.
We've
got
about
15
months
of
work
just
to
do
with
remediation
and
demolition,
there's
really
nothing
other
than
it
the
historical
stuff
in
the
building
that
you
want
to
keep.
P
If
you
want
to
try
to
confine
and
mix
that
with
20
18
year
old
plumbing,
it
doesn't
work
very
well.
So
we
began
the
process
of
putting
together
our
three-pronged
project,
and
the
reason
we're
here
today
is:
we
are
getting
geared
up
to
close
the
first
of
those
three
pieces
which
is
about
a
six
hundred
and
seventy
five
space
parking
garage,
two
stories
of
what
we
call
commercial
retail
part
of
which
will
include
an
incubator,
business
incubator
on
the
second
floor
and
it's
basically
the
1957
Center
building
in
the
1972
East
Building.
P
Five-Star
hotel
rooms
and
about
200
apartments
and
five
different
food
and
beverage
outlets,
so
we
are
working
to
get
geared
up
to
closing
the
garage
and
gallery
piece.
We
call
it
and
that's
the
first
phase.
It's
the
reason
that
we're
here
we've
accumulated
a
great
team,
many
of
which
worked
on
the
Skirvin.
P
There
are
13
different
entities,
all
of
which
have
legal
representatives
that
will
be
part
of
the
garage
and
gallery
closing
hundreds
of
documents,
thousands
of
pages-
and
it's
not
even
the
most
difficult
piece
of
the
closing
so
I'm
here
to
answer
any
questions.
Try
to
keep
it
short.
I
can
talk
about
it
for
hours.
If,
if
you're
interested
yeah.
P
A
Q
Item
before
he
for
you
this
morning
is
the
memorandum
agreement
between
the
city,
the
Economic,
Development,
Trust
and
mr.
Brooks
is
entity,
and
what
we're
doing
today
is
it
supports
the
developers
the
supports
the
developers
of
goal
of
getting
private
financing
for
the
garage.
It
does
not
obligate
the
city
to
backstop
the
debt.
The
developer
has
to
go
out
and
create
and
start
construction
and
finish
the
garage
before
the
city
fulfills
its
obligation
in
this
project
on
completion.
Q
The
plan
is
for
the
Oklahoma
City
Economic
Development
Russ,
to
borrow
funds
and
then
loan
those
to
Gary,
so
he
can
take
out
what
they
call
the
new
markets.
Tax
credit
leveraged
loan
upon
that
Gary
will
be
required
to
pay
a
minimum
annual
debt
service
to
pay
that
loan.
This
is
a
single
taxpayer
TIFF,
so
we
will
have
a
covenant
or
required
him
to
pay
a
certain
certain
amount.
I'll
have
to
pay
above
and
beyond
what
the
debt
service
will
be.
The
idea
is
the
second
element,
trust
will.
Q
Q
During
that
time
that
we
will
begin
the
TIF
allocation
process
we'll
go
to
the
advisory
group.
This
is
our
standard,
typical
allocation
of
funds.
Animals
go
to
the
TIF
review
committee
and
then
we'll
come
to
the
City
Council
for
formal
allocation
of
the
TIF
funds.
If
your
will
fall
back
in
2016,
the
City
Council
created
a
TIF
district
that
had
a
budget
of
40
million
dollars
and
then
of
Advil
based
on
ad
valorem
tax
that
also
had
a
sales
tax
TIF
of
approximately
5
million,
and
we're
going
to
go
through
the
exact
same
process.
Q
What
we're
doing
here
today,
though
this
agreement
is
helping
Gary
go
out
and
get
the
adequate
financing
for
this
project,
so
he
can
start
and
then
after
we
go
through
the
allocation
process,
will
have
an
economic
development
agreement
that
will
go
back
to
the
economic
development
trust
and
then
we'll
come
back
to
this
body
where
your
approval
and
then,
if
there
is
a
financing
to
occur,
it
will
go
through
the
normal
process
of
the
economic
development
trust
and
it
will
come
back
to
this
body.
To
that
I'd
be
happy
to
answer
any
questions
but
I.
A
Q
I
think
Kathy
O'conner
and
myself
and
mr.
couch
have
tried
to
work
with
the
previous
owners
to
try
to
help
them
with
solutions
and
then
and
the
previous
and
the
previous
occasions
before
they
asked
and
we've
been
working
on
that
and
then,
when
Gary
came
to
us,
was
trying
to
acquire
the
property.
We
started
the
process
to
create
the
TIF
district
and
I
think.
At
that
time
we
council
approved
the
budget
of
45
million
dollars.
A
I
would
say
you
know,
perhaps,
with
the
exception
of
the
State
Capitol
building,
it's
probably
the
most
iconic
building
in
Oklahoma
City.
You
know
it's,
certainly
the
one
that
you
know
was
on
the
most
postcards
through
the
decades
and
and
Gary
didn't
under
self.
At
Great,
Hall
I
mean
if
you've
walked
in
there
and
even
if
you're,
not
old
enough
to
have
known
when
it
was
a
bank.
A
It
takes
your
breath
away
and
you
can
see
the
potential
for
the
city
making
a
you
know
a
statement,
architecture,
lien
and
I'm
having
a
marquee
residence
in
hotel
in
the
heart
of
the
best
business
district
Brett.
What's
what's
long
been
the
problem
with
this
facility,
it
was
I
mean.
Why
hasn't?
What
did
this
happened
ten
years
ago
were
20
years
ago
in.
F
O
A
F
F
F
Gary
knows
them
better,
probably
than
than
I
do,
but
it
was
it's
a
it's
a
very
complicated
building
to
get
historic
tax
credits.
For
example,
he
has
intentions
of
tearing
down
the
middle
building,
but
now
I
was
unable
to
do
that
because
of
involvement
of
tax
credits
and
he's
going
to
have
to
keep
the
facade
at
lease
on
that
building.
M
Brett.
A
Q
F
A
lot
of
the
similar
tools,
but
discovery
was
different
for
we
actually
own
the
building
and
actually
to
this
day
we
saw
an
equity
position
and
we
have
the
ground
lease
or
that
we
have
a
ground
ownership
of
the
building.
So
we
don't
have
ownership
in
this
building,
but
we
do
have
a
piece
of
the
ownership
to
the
Skirvin.
Okay.
R
S
Realm
in
theory,
yeah
I
would
say:
there's
a
you
know.
One
of
the
reasons
this
has
had
problems
is
their
substantial
risk.
Associated
with
with
this
I
mean
it's
not
an
easy
fix
and
I
appreciate
mr.
Brooks.
Taking
on
that
risk.
I
don't
want
to
scare
people
off
it's
nothing
unusual,
but
anytime.
You
make
this
type
of
investment.
There
are
substantial
risks
associated
with
it,
and
so
we're
not
just
handing
over
money
and
it's
going
to
be
a
slam.
S
Dunk,
it's
going
to
require
a
lot
of
things
fall
into
place,
but
at
the
same
time
I
think
it's
critical,
because
it's
a
big
blight
on
the
downtown
area.
If
this
isn't
fixed
I,
don't
think
we
can
ever
really
move
to
that
next
level
as
far
as
a
a
downtown
business
center.
As
long
as
this
continues
to
remain
vacant-
and
really
it's
not
an
eyesore
per
se,
but
it's
certainly
a
big
problem.
S
It's
there's
a
lot
of
analogies
you
could
use,
but
until
it's
addressed
I
think
it's
going
to
slow
down
the
continued
growth
and
development
of
the
downtown
area,
so
I
appreciate.
Mr.
Brooks
is
effort
and
I
want
from
business
perspective.
People
understand
their
substantial
risks
associated
with
it.
So.
P
P
Since
my
best
friend
owns
the
other
three
corners,
I
will
be
very
careful
to
make
sure
I
don't
shut
down
mr.
Bedford's
traffic
flow
in
his
buildings
seriously.
We
we
have
a
big
alley
there
that
we
plan
on
not
only
using
for
as
much
of
the
construction
as
possible,
but
je
Dunn
is,
as
our
main
contractor
and
they're
building
for
none
on
Sheridan.
They
have
a
lot
of
experience
with
the
city.
They
understand
how
important
traffic
flow
is.
P
Our
plan
is
to
not
shut
down
traffic
in
any
direction
other
than
maybe
for
a
very
short
period
of
time.
When
we
bring
in
a
tower
crane
to
set
it
in
a
certain
portion
of
the
garage
and
then
once
we're
finished,
you
know
the
alley
will
become
the
major
delivery.
Everything
will
happen
through
that
alley.
We
understand
you're
not
going
to
you're
not
going
to
bring
trash
out
of
a
million
square
foot
building
on
Park
Avenue
you're,
just
not
going
to
do
that
right.
I
O
Have
never
seen
I
mean
people
came
in
limousines,
and
it
was
just
incredible
to
see
the
enthusiasm
it.
People
from
all
over
the
city
have
for
this
building.
That's
just
a
great,
very
similar
to
the
Skirvin
I.
Think,
there's
a
great
love
for
this
building
and
that
banking,
all
people
have
so
many
memories,
opening
their
first
passbook
there.
It's
just
a
it
will
be
a
wonderful
experience
to
have
this
brought
back
to
life.
Yeah.
G
A
Gary
I've
talked
with
you
enough
to
know
your
passions
in
this
project.
It's
not
just
it's
not
just
another
project
for
you,
so
we
appreciate
your
emotional
buy-in
at
the
same
time
and
you
got
an
entire
city.
You
know
pulling
for
you
to
get
this
done.
So
thank
you
very
much
for
the
presentation
and
Brent.
Thanks
for
answering
the
questions,
all
right,
Meg.
You
wanted
to
talk
about
some
other
items
on
the
consent.
Docket
I.
O
Did
Mara
I'll
try
to
be
very
brief.
I
just
wanted
to
mention
a
couple
of
things.
Item
7
s.
One
through
six
is
a
series
of
our
professional
service
agreements
with
various
neighborhood
associations,
Northwest
10th
Street,
the
Paseo
Arts
Association
that
homeless
Alliance
I
could
go
through
the
rest
of
them,
but
I
just
always
like
to
mention
these
because
there's
such
important
partnerships
for
us
and
these
small
commercial
revitalization
districts
don't
happen
without
you
know
really
hard
work
of
volunteers,
citizens
and
so
I
always
just
like
to
mention
the
efforts
that
they're
doing.
O
C7
AC
is
the
awarding
of
the
contract
for
red
Andrews
Park.
We
announced
a
couple
of
weeks
ago
that
we
were
going
out
for
that
and
the
contract
is
being
awarded
with
this
resolution
and
construction
begins
in
June
of
seventeen,
and
this
is
also
another
important
partnership.
Midtown
Renaissance
and
a
number
of
other
folks
were
involved
in
providing
funding
for
this
park.
I
want
to
thank
Wylie
specifically
for
all
the
work
you
did
to
make
sure
that
this
happens
for
us
7a.
O
You
is
also
a
project
that
we've
been
working
on
for
a
very
long
time
and
it's
the
sale
of
some
property
on
the
north
side
of
Northwest
10th
Street
between
Blackwelder
and
Ellison,
and
for
those
watching
you'll
note
that
this
is
a
section
of
10th
Street
that
was
vacated
a
number
of
years
ago
to
widen.
10Th
Street
and
the
properties
on
the
north
side
has
been
vacant.
This
adjoins
class
and
tan
pan,
which
is
continuing
to
thrive
as
an
inner
city
neighborhood
and
the
developer
plans.
Mixed-Use
development
here
of
residential
and
commercial.
O
That
I
think,
will
be
very
beneficial
to
the
neighborhood.
So
I
want
to
thank
Dodson
custom
homes
for
taking
on
this
project,
and
staff
has
done
a
fantastic
job
in
seeing
that
that
happens
and
Jim.
This
may
be
one
that
I
need
somebody
to
get
back
to
me
on,
but
7cn
is
our
contract
with
the
jail.
Yes,.
T
O
F
This
little
is
it
this
year,
but
I'll
get
you
that
information,
but
it
is
a
good
time
to
highlight
the
work
that
that's
been
done.
You
know
with
what
the
very
group
is
doing
in
with
the
jail
task
force
that
the
chamber
and
mr.
Bennett
have
been
initiating
and
then
the
the
legislative,
that's
legislating.
F
The
Judicial
Committee
previous
work
by
councilman
white
and
now
led
by
Councilman
Stonecipher,
with
counsel
counsel
in
stone
and
the
work
that
they've
done
in
trying
to
deal
with
entity
and
see
and
not
put
people
in
jail
because
they
can't
pay
and
more
in
DC
hearings
and,
of
course,
Judge
James
and
and
LaShawn
Thompson
and
Cindy
Richard,
all
working
together
to
get
that
down.
It's.
F
Really
is
a
success:
it's
not
a
full
success,
yet
the
word
in
that
range
and
there
are
less
people
being
incarcerated,
I'm,
not
in
Oklahoma
City
charges.
Today,
now
we're
still
working
on
the
County
is
where
most
of
those
charges
need
to
be
worked
through
and
we're
still
working
through
that,
but
I'm
really
appreciative
of
the
work
done
by
the
legislature
or
that
Judicial
Committee
and
our
staff
and.
J
J
Bl
and
BM
so
on
BL
is
the
Economic
Development
Trust
is
going
to
set
up
with
the
Maps
Park
Foundation
at
seven
hundred
thousand
a
year
for
the
Maps
park
for
the
annual
management
fee
and
support
for
operations
and
management.
Would
it
so
the
source
of
the
funds
is
what
for
that?
Seven
hundred
thousand
you.
J
A
All
right,
we
have
a
motion
in
a
second
cast.
Your
votes

unanimously
that
moves
us
on
to

nine.
These

items

Y
Steve
white
1724,
Northwest
170,
ninth
in
Edmond,
the
street
portion
is
the
north
part
of
a
street.
It
was
vacated
probably
50
years
ago
and
the
balance
on
the
south
of
the
two
lots.
It
was
eight
derange
easement
that
was
put
in
place
a
few
years
ago
to
build
a
variance
structure
in
there
I've
met
with
the
staff
we've
negotiated.
Everything
out.
Everybody
is
happy
on.
Y
Changing
the
season
status
I
think
each
of
you
probably
have
a
email
from
the
homeowners
association
out
there
and
I've
met
with
him
several
times.
I've
showed
him.
Everything
I
know
secrets
photos
of
what
we're
going
to
build
the
plans
and
I've
not
had
one
person
contact
me
against
him
against
this
wind
garment,
of
course,
is
that
with
me
several
times
to
see
what
we're
going
to
do
and
if
we're
going
to
change
anything
which
were
not
so
her
GPA.
A
Y
That
this
is
the
spud
with
three
houses
on
this
particular
lot
that
had
been
zoned
commercial.
One
things
the
neighbors
were
concerned
about
is
having
a
mini
storage
or
something
terrible
like
that
go
in
there.
This
is
a
to
the
north,
is
all
residential
to
the
south.
Is
what
used
to
be
the
charcoal,
oven
and.
Y
J
Z

The
only
access
to
a
sewer,
clean
out
back
behind
my
neighbor's
house
and
to
get
to
the
utility
route
there
is
a
creek
along
there
that
they
went
through
and
concreted
a
few
years
ago
and
others
a
fence
around
it.
So
back
they
get
access
through
there
to
get
back
there
I.
Just
we
just
want
to
know
that
you
can
get
in
there.
The
city
will
be
able
to
get
it
in
there.

W
Right,
Thank
You
mr.
mayor
on
April,
the
27th
and
Planning
Commission
recommended
denial
of
PUD
16,
for
the
Commission
felt
that
this
proposed
commercial
use
was
not
in
was
not
compatible
with
the
surrounding
residential
excuse
me,
rural
residential
area,
the
applicant
has
not
agreed
to
the
following
conditions
in
the

will
need
to
be
amended
accordingly,
if
approved

Two

the
applicant
on
last
week
requests
a
indefinite
deferral,
but
I
cannot
support
the
indefinite
deferral,
but
the
applicant
representative
is
here
to
talk
about
that
indefinitely
deferral
and
I
see
the
protesters
representative
is
here.
So
if
we
can
hear
mr.

from
the

then
the
protest
representative.

mr.

mr.
Jordan
mr.
Cao,
miss
Kersey.
Thank
you
very
much.
Unfortunately,
the
applicants
Matt
and
Lauren
toppings
could
not
be
here
this
morning.
They
wish
they
could
be,
unfortunately,
miss
toppings
and
her
5
month.
Old
infant
suffered
some
injuries
yesterday
and
a
fireworks
accident
and
they
are
Cooper
18
and
had
some
pretty
significant
burns
and
I
have
provided
at
his
request:
councilman
Pettis
with
and
documentary
evidence
of
those
injuries.
U
So
if
any
of
you
so
desire
to
see
those,
you
can
check
with
councilman
Pettis,
but
that's
why
the
applicants
could
not
be
here
this
morning.
They
are
a
family
in
Ward,
7,
father,
mother,
three
little
girls
they're,
not
developers.
They
do
own
this
land,
also
in
Ward,
7
and
essentially
what
they
want
to
do
is
establish
a
wedding
chapel
on
this
land.
U
U
We
believe
that
there's
been
a
miscommunication
non
communication,
some
things
that
could
have
been
clarified
also
the
applicants
are
willing
to
make
some
concessions
based
on
the
concerns
that
we've
heard
from
the
neighbors,
such
as
hours
of
operation
limitation
on
alcohol
service
to
act
actually
remove
a
future
development
of
another
building
towards
the
back
of
the
property.
This
was
originally
on
an
agenda
for
two
weeks
ago.
U
We
requested
a
continuance
because
we
had
not
had
a
chance
to
sit
down
with
opposing
counsel
and
talk
about
some
of
these
concessions
to
seek
clarification,
and
we
wanted
the
opportunity
to
do
that.
We
did
that
and
then
we
wanted
to
move
forward
with
meeting
with
neighbors
the
second
week
of
July.
Unfortunately,
that's
not
going
to
happen
now,
and
so
we
seek
an
indefinite
deferral.
U
The
reason
for
doing
that
is
so
again:
we
can
kind
of
go
back
to
square
one,
that
we
can
correct
any
procedural
missteps
so
that
we
can
start
to
talk
address
the
concerns
move
forward
with
insight
with
input
from
the
surrounding
neighbors.
Again,
the
applicants
are
rewards
have
been
family.
They
want
to
do
this
in
a
cooperative
fashion,
and
so
I
seek
your
help
and
your
support
in
an
indefinite
deferral
so
that
we
can
take
a
step
back
and
then
hopefully
come
back
to
the
council
with
a
resolution
that
everybody
can
live
with.

I
am
here
on
behalf
of
81
signed
protesters
that
live
in
and
around
what
I
described
as
the
impact
zone
as
well
as
14
of
the
17
parcels
within
the
legal
protest
zone.
You
have
before
you
an
application
that
has
not
been
fully
vetted
by
the
neighbors,
because
the
applicant
has
pursued
this.
AC
AC
There's
some
grave
concerns
about
the
notion
of
an
indefinite
deferral
and
the
burden
that
that
could
put
back
on
the
neighborhood
the
need
to
get
back
together
to
expend
more
money
on
council
to
restart
the
protest
process
that
we
think
is
an
unfair
burden
to
them.
So
we
stand
here
today
in
hopes
that
you
would
hear
the
item
you
could
hear
the
concerns
you
could
hear
our
thoughts
associated
with
the
ordinance
incompatibility,
the
plans
incompatibility
and,
quite
frankly,
the
mitigation
effort
that
hasn't
gone
far
enough.
AC
I
want
to
give
you
a
little
bit
of
the
calendar
update
if
I
might,
following
the
Planning,
Commission's
unanimous
denial
on
April
27th,
the
neighbors
learned
that
the
applicant
was
still
insisting
on
moving
forward
to
pursue
approval.
They
reached
out
retained
our
firm
and
we
got
involved
I
immediately
reached
out
at
that
time
to
the
attorney
of
record
in
the
application.
AC
Mr.
love
of
Chicken
Falcone
indicated
they
no
longer
were
representing
the
applicant
I
had
heard
from
city
staff
that
another
firm
was
reached
out
to
that
attorney
and
asked
for
a
chance
to
meet
with
the
applicant
on
behalf
of
the
neighbors.
A
few
weeks
went
by
I
had
to
reach
back
out,
learn
from
that
attorney.
Their
firm
had
refused
representation.
AC
I
learned
of
a
third
attorney
named
Reed
stout
indicated
from
that
person
that
they
weren't
taking
the
case
as
June
20th,
was
approaching,
and
we
were
the
ones
initiating
the
contact,
the
applicant,
desperate
to
have
a
conversation.
Mr.
growl
appeared
again
on
behalf
of
the
original
law
firm,
so
I
feel
the
firm's
representation
has
continued
in
spite
of
the
change
of
lawyers,
and
we
are
prepared
to
argue
the
case
today.
The
neighbors
are
present
would
be
grateful
for
that
opportunity.
AC
W
You
all
right,
Thank,
You
mr.
mayor
I,
do
strongly
believe
that
we
should
hear
this
case
since
day.
One
I
asked
the
applicant
to
please
leaves
meet
with
the
surrounding
property
owners
meet
with
the
neighbors.
The
applicant
chose
not
to
meet
with
the
surrounding
property
owners
in
neighbors,
but
instead
the
applicant
chose
to
reach
out
to
other
people.
My
view
on
this
would
have
been
different.
Had
the
applicant
originally
did
what
I
requested,
which
was
to
please
work
with
the
surrounding
property
owners
and
neighbors,
and
truly
be
good
neighbors
I.
W
J
U
We're
not
prepared
to
defend
the
application
today
and
that's
why
we're
requesting
the
indefinite
deferral.
Unfortunately,
the
applicants
can't
be
here
again
as
counsel
councilman
Pettis
said:
we'd
like
the
opportunity
moving
forward
to
sit
down
and
meet
with
the
neighbors
to
talk
about
some
of
these
concessions
that
we've
communicated
to
their
counsel
that
we're
willing
to
make
I
can't
change
anything
that
happened
previously.
U
I've
only
been
involved
for
a
few
weeks,
in
this
case
right
before
the
first
continuance,
which
is
why
it
was
requested
because
we
were
trying
to
sit
down
and
and
meet
with
mr.
Roth
who's,
a
friend
of
mine
and
so
again,
there's
going
to
definitely
be
a
different
tone
and
tenor
moving
forward,
and
we
just
like
the
opportunity
to
again
to
address
these
concerns
to
talk
about
these
changes
and
to
reach
a
resolution.
U
So
as
far
as
presenting
any
case
in
support
of
the
application,
we're
not
prepared
to
do
that
today,
again,
I
have
absolutely
no
problem.
Listening
to
the
protesters,
I
will
take
copious
notes
to
discuss
with
my
clients
so
that
again
moving
forward.
We
can
take
any
and
all
of
these
concerns
seriously
and
address
them.
Thank
you.
I
think.
AC
AC
Mr.
vice
mayor
and
council,
thank
you
so
much
for
the
opportunity
to
present
a
few
thoughts
for
your
consideration
regarding
PD
1640.
I.
First
wanted
to
say
thank
you
for
hearing
this
item.
I
can
relate
to
the
burden
of
a
fiscal
year
agenda.
When
I
saw
we
were
on
page
33.
I
thought
it
was
an
all-day
affair,
but
I
am
grateful.
How
efficient
you
moved
through
your
fiscal
year.
I
can
recall
years
ago
across
the
street
I
wish
we
had
been
as
efficient
I
want
to
say.
First
a
word
of
thoughts
and
mr.
AC
brow,
we
did
have
a
good
in-person
meeting
on
the
23rd,
where
we
had
a
chance
to
hear
some
thoughts
and
I
was
grateful
for
his
time.
I
also
wanted
to
extend
wishes
for
speedy
recovery
to
mrs.
Tompkins
and
her
child
and
wanted
to
accept
their
offer,
as
I
heard
it
this
morning
to
start
over.
We
believe
that
is
in
the
best
interest
of
the
applicant,
the
neighborhood
city
staff,
the
Planning
Commission
and,
ultimately,
council
I
wanted
to
share
some
context,
as
the
neighborhood
sees
it.
AC
We
have
serious
concern
that
PUD
1640
and
the
application
form
it
is
before
you
does
not
in
fact
provide
any
essential
commercial
or
institutional
use
to
the
area.
It
would
not
encourage
and
protect
agricultural
uses
on
a
permanent
basis,
and
we
think,
for
that
reason
it
fail
the
city
ordinance.
If
you
look
at
your
comprehensive
plan-
and
we
are
thankful
for
the
city's
deep
effort
to
provide
this
type
of
development
guide
and
footprint
across
your
municipality.
AC
But
if
you
look
at
the
comprehensive
plan,
this
entire
section
section
for
Township
12
North
range
to
West
is
a
mix
of
only
rural,
medium
intensity
and
rural,
low
intensity
areas,
rule
medium
intensity
or
what
the
city
plan
refers
to
is
RM
is
described
as
large
lot.
Residential,
two
acres
or
more
plus
quote
related
commercial
services.
End
quote:
there
are
no
expectations
of
urbanization
or
provision
of
water
or
sewer
for
these
residents
and
IT.
The
word
residents,
because
I
think
it's
significant.
AC
AC
If
comparing
the
parcel
in
question
to
the
plan,
it
is
more
in
sync,
with
rural
low
intensity,
it
is
bordered
on
the
west
by
a
34
acre
undeveloped,
tract
neighbor,
who
is
in
opposition
and
the
east
by
a
55
acre
tract
undeveloped,
land
owned
by
the
lady
who
in
fact
sold
this
applicant
the
property.
She,
of
course
supports
it
when
you
review
the
plans
development
policies.
AC
This
PUD
proposes
the
twenty
acre
commercial
development
in
the
middle
of
the
section,
not
near
any
intersection
and
is
in
fact
to
be
located
on
Wilshire,
which
city
staff
describes
in
its
report
as
a
quote
minor
arterial.
So
it
is
wrong
for
this
area
its
proposed
far
from
an
intersection,
and
it
is
unsuited
for
this
minor
arterial.
It
has
no
plans
for
expansion
widening
or
even
resurfacing
anytime
soon,
because
Wilshire
actually
dead
ends
just
a
further
mile
plus
to
the
east
because
of
the
North
Canadian
River.
AC
When
you
consider
the
appropriateness
of
commercial
uses
stated
in
the
city's
plan
the
standard
that
those
quote
do
not
negatively
impact
the
rural
residential
character,
we
believe
fails
that
standard
as
well
and
more
on
those
issues
from
our
neighbors.
Perhaps
later
in
this
meeting.
Now,
when
you
look
at
rural
medium
intensity
in
Chapter
two
of
your
development
guide,
we
note
that
it
states
higher
density
Lots
such
as
one
acre
home
sites,
can
be
appropriate
if
situated
in
a
quote
transition
area
between
higher
density
areas
and
rural
areas,
while
preserving
environmentally
sensitive
areas.
AC
Those
facts
don't
exist
here.
This
PUD
isn't
even
about
greater
housing
density,
although
quite
frankly
many
of
the
neighbors
wish
it
was
such
as
one
acre
sites
in
a
rural
medium
rural
area.
There
is
no
transition
area
between
higher
density
and
this
PUD,
it's
a
large
scale,
commercial
purpose,
with
rural
houses
on
acreages
or
large
undeveloped
acres
in
every
direction
of
it.
If
you'll
look
at
the
aerial
map
in
the
preceding
slide,
you'll
see
it
highlighted,
you'll
see
the
rural,
medium
intensity
and
the
rule
low
intensity.
AC
I
thought
it
might
be
helpful
for
you
to
have
a
chance
to
see
this
I
pulled
it
off
the
County
Assessors
website.
So
you
can
see
the
road
improvements,
the
notes
of
areas
of
unimproved
parcels
in
question.
You
could
also
see
the
home
sites
to
the
south
on
on
North
East,
71st,
Street
and
you'll
see
the
activities
on
the
north
to
the
north
or
five
and
ten
acre
home
site
to
the
south.
AC
There
are
some
one
to
five
acre
home
site,
but
this
proposed
PUD
is
nothing
like
the
AE
area
and
it's
probably
disingenuous
to
even
call
it
a
a
base.
Zoning
PUD
I
believe
it's
a
c3
project
presented
as
a
PUD
in
an
AAA
area.
If
you
look
at
your
community,
commercial
districts
are,
quite
frankly,
all
the
base.
Zoning
definitions.
Within
your
code
and
plan
chapter
59,
section,
60,
200
point
one
and
the
purpose
statements
a
review
of
these
base
zoning.
AC
It
would
appear
that
community,
commercial
district
or
what's
referred
to
as
c3,
is
the
accurate
city
code
for
this
planned.
Twenty
acre
development,
this
PUD
1640,
better
fits,
is
c3
because
it
quote
would
serve
a
larger
trade
area
than
the
surrounding
residential
neighborhood,
and
yet
it
provides
zero
quote
essential
commercial
services,
as
I
shared
with
you,
your
plan
for
AAA
suggests,
would
only
be
appropriate.
This
is
why
these
neighbors
fear
the
impact
that
have
been
discussed
by
the
planning
commissioners
and
cited
in
the
staff
report.
AC
This
is
not
even
a
mixed-use
project,
but
rather
commercial
only.
There
is
no
residential
aspect
to
it.
It's
ours
would
be
from
6
a.m.
to
2
a.m.
seven
days
a
week
and
it's
potentially
dangerous
loud
and
a
disruptive
PUD
now
I
do
recognize
that
applicant
or
counsel
must
realize
the
various,
the
very
obvious
incompatibility
of
c3
to
this
otherwise
quiet
large
lot,
rural
residential
area
and
so
I.
Imagine
they
realize
their
odds
were
better
to
pursue
it
as
a
PUD
but
planning
commissioners
who
you
have
entrusted
to
analyze.
AC
These
issues,
with
the
help
of
exceptional
staff,
realized
that
it
was
not
worthy
of
approval
as
a
PUD
I'm
hopeful
that,
because
of
nearly
unanimous
neighbors
and
landowners
around
this
PUD
and
up
and
down
Wilshire
and
Air
Depot
that
the
City
Council
will
likewise
deny
PUD
1644.
Its
failure
to
protect
the
surrounding
AAA
area
recognize
that
it
does
not
provide
quote
certain
essential
commercial
and
institutional
uses
and
honestly
recognize
that,
no
matter
whether
it's
called
a
c3
application
or
PUD
and
a
a
or
anything
else,
it's
bad
for
a
a
and
the
people.
AC
Who've
called
this
area
home
for
years
and
generations.
This
is,
in
fact,
a
commercial
proposal
by
a
non-resident
business
owner,
in
fact,
you'll
notice.
It's
in
the
name
of
an
LLC,
now
standards
for
an
Oklahoma,
City
PUD.
Again,
according
to
your
code
and
plan
quote,
the
PUD
typically
includes
multiple
tracks
that
can
be
regulated
under
different
based
zoning
districts
and
include
significant
modifications
to
conventional
zoning
land
use
regulation
again
not
the
case
here.
AC
This
application
only
involves
a
a
base
owning
for
the
parcel
at
issue
and
only
a
a
surrounds
it,
which
is
why
a
c3
or
other
more
accurate
rezoning
effort
would
have
significant
and
obvious
incompatibilities
with
this
a
neighborhood.
In
fact,
our
research
shows
that
of
the
twelve
similar
wedding,
chapel,
slash
event
center
complexes
in
existence
in
Oklahoma
City,
none,
not
one,
has
been
allowed
in
purely
a
a
zoning
areas
and
this
shouldn't
be
allowed
either
you'll
see
from
the
map
we
provided
in
this
presentation.
AC
But
most
all
of
these
are
along
major
arterials
of
four
or
more
lanes
to
accommodate
crowds
and
traffic.
Now
it
can
be
described
as
a
wedding
chapel,
but
in
conversations
with
the
applicant
she
has
intentions
of
running
corporate
ratite
retreats
business
activities
from
the
entire
hours
of
6
to
2
a.m.
later.
She
indicated
she'd
shut
off
events
by
midnight
and
alcohol
service
by
11:00
and
I'll
share
more
thoughts
on
that
later.
AC
But
if
you
look
at
the
existing
event,
centers
who
have
classifications
as
PUD
or
other
base,
owning
districts,
you'll
notice,
North,
Council
Road
by
120
second
Eastern
Avenue
near
Hefner,
southwest
59th
of
the
intersection
of
Santa
Fe,
South
100
and
4th
and
Western
in
a
strip
mall
with
plenty
of
parking.
So
only
this
proposed
event
center,
complex
and
wedding
chapel
would
be
placed
in
a
nasone
based
district
with
no
other
base
zoning
classifications
other
than
AAA
anywhere
around
it.
AC
That's
the
purpose,
often
of
a
PUD
aggregating
afflicting
or
different
base.
Zoning
issues,
all
other
similar
event
centers
were
at
least
our
one
with
most
having
existing
commercial
or
industrial
zoning
adjacent,
not
PUD.
1640
I
looked
at
a
few
nearby
facilities,
I
looked
at
Cole's
garden.
I
looked
at
the
new
Montano
Events
Center
on
Eastern.
None
of
those
have
proposed
20
hours,
seven
days
a
week,
operation
and
again
all
of
those
are
on
four
lane
or
larger
section
line,
major
arterials.
AC
What's
more-
and
this
is
I-
believe
it's
significant
you'll
hear
from
the
neighbors
these
existing
event,
centers
located
around
arterioles,
described
as
major,
not
minor,
also
are
served
by
city,
water
and
they're
also
served
by
public
safety
services
of
quicker
response.
Then
this
event,
centers
location,
would
allow
on
rural
east
Wilshire.
AC
AC
Your
comprehensive
plan
was
in
place
and
it
insisted
on
that
type
of
incompatibility
analysis
on
traffic
more
recently,
OKC
PUD
1639
at
East,
Wilshire
and
Coltrane
was
also
proposed
to
be
a
wedding
chapel.
This
is
the
issue
that
I
actually
became
more
aware
of
because
it's
within
a
half
mile
of
my
own
residence
I
and
a
number
of
neighbors
were
made
aware
of
it,
because
that
applicant,
through
her
credit,
knocked
on
doors
and
talked
to
people
before
she
filed
the
application
with
the
Planning
Commission.
Once
the
plan
was
circulated
with
the
legal
notice.
AC
Neighbors
grew
more
concerned
about
some
of
its
issues,
because
the
two
parcels
to
be
aggregated
within
the
PUD
one
was
within
a
flood
wage
where
she
proposed
building
a
peered,
2000
square-foot
wedding
chapel.
At
the
request
of
the
Planning
Commission,
a
number
of
neighbors
agreed
to
meet
with
the
applicant
prior
to
Planning
Commission
decision.
We
did
it
Rudy
construction
in
North,
East,
63rd
one
night
and
my
credit
goes
to
planning
Commissioner
Cooper
and
planning
Commissioner
powers
who
also
attended
attorney
David
box
on
behalf
of
the
application.
AC
I
thought
did
an
excellent
job
of
allowing
for
a
conversation
between
the
applicant
and
the
neighbors,
but
the
concerns
were
genuine
and
the
concerns
were
significant
and
the
worry
of
traffic
at
that
otherwise
difficult,
visible,
weird
intersection.
That's
a
correction
section,
so
Coltrane
actually
jogs
over
on
Wilshire
and
causes
some
traffic
issues
in
the
past
to
her
credit
that
application
or
that
applicant
slip
on
it.
That
night
and
the
next
morning
agreed
to
withdraw
it
out
of
respect
for
her
neighbors
I.
Think,
there's
a
significant
difference
here.
AC
The
applicant
in
PUD
1639
lived
on
the
property
had
neighbors
the
day
after
the
decision
had
a
sense,
I
think
of
greater
responsibility,
not
the
case
with
this
for-profit
business,
the
residents
may
live
in
Ward
7,
but
three
miles
away
is
not
the
same
as
noise
and
lights
and
drunk
driving
effect
that
those
who
actually
live
around
it
worried
about,
and
perhaps
that
why
I
had
to
reach
out
trying
to
build
a
bridge
between
the
neighbors
and
the
applicant.
I
still
hope
that
that
can
be
possible
going
forward.
AC
If
you
look
at
the
legal
protest
zone
and
perhaps
your
packet
included
this
information,
but
I
thought
it
might
be
helpful
to
see
it.
I
represent
the
families
in
blue,
the
14
of
17
parcels
technically
in
opposition
within
the
legal
protest
zone.
I
also
represent
63
other
families
and
individuals
in
and
around
the
area
who
reside
in
what
I
call
this
impact
zone.
Their
homes
are
nearby
their
families
commute
along
wilshire
sooner
and
air
Depot.
AC
They
are
genuine
about
that,
but
they
have
grave
concerns
about
this
proposed
commercial
PUD
by
non-residents
running
20
hour
day
business,
seven
days
a
week
with
noise
lights,
traffic,
road
dangers,
water
depletion
at
rates
before
unseen
in
this
area
and
fire
dangers
from
number
undreds
of
guests,
perhaps
every
day
at
raucous
activities
like
weddings.
Now
there
are
a
number
of
central
neighbor
concerns.
I
will
leave
most
of
that
for
you
to
hear
from
the
neighbors
themselves,
but
I
wanted
to
highlight
a
few.
So
you
have,
in
this
document
a
leave
behind
for
your
consideration.
AC
Homes
in
this
area
are
zoned
a
with
mostly
single-family
home,
on
five
or
more
acres
as
staff
reports.
The
character
of
the
area's
rural
residential
net
is
true,
but
this
event
complex
is
not.
You
will
see
a
number
of
issues
associated
with
essentially
the
interruption
of
quiet
enjoyment
that
all
residents
hope
to
have
within
their
homes.
Next
you'll
see
staff
referring
to
the
allowed
speed
limit
on
East
will
should
be
in
55
miles
an
hour
in
a
description
of
the
topographical
area.
AC
Profile
of
Wilshire,
going
from
low
to
high
Wilshire
is
described
as
a
minor
arterial
in
the
rural
medium
Lu
to
a
drunk
driving
is
a
serious
risk
due
to
this
commercial
event
center
and
something
that
people
who
live
around
this
area
don't
have
a
choice
other
than
their
commute
along
wilshire
or
other
section
line
roads.
There
is
a
stop
sign
at
Wilshire,
and
sooner
you
imagine
the
effect
of
500
to
120.
Excuse
me
50
to
125
cars,
leaving
an
event
at
one
time.
What
that
does
to
this?
AC
Otherwise,
rule
two-lane
road
when
I
met
with
the
applicant
and
her
attorney.
She
offered
a
few
possible
revisions
which,
sadly,
do
not
go
far
enough
to
mitigate,
as
the
comprehensive
plan
might
suggest
his
promise
to
citizens
to
lessen
the
impacts
from
this
business.
Although
she
still
wanted
to
operate
seven
days
a
week
from
6
a.m.
to
2
a.m.
she
suggested
just
developing
the
6,000
square
foot
phase
1
with
this
PUD,
but
still
maintaining
125
parking
spaces
for
attendance
of
over
200
plus
people.
When
I
asked.
AC
If
the
PUD
could
then
be
worded
to
prohibit
phase
2
at
second
12,000
square
feet,
building
she
refused
and
said
she
would
just
agree
to
pursue
that
separately.
Later
we
worried
that
if
the
city
were
to
agree
to
6000,
knowing
12,000
was
potential
with
her
original
vision
that
before
long,
this
will
be
at
18,000
and
once
that
foot
is
in
the
door,
we
afraid
the
neighbors
impact
is
going
to
be
dramatic
and
unprecedented.
AC
When
I
expressed
the
neighbors
worried
about
late
events
with
alcohol
and
drunk
drivers
on
a
rural
two-lane
roads,
she
offered
to
cut
off
events
at
midnight
with
alcohol
service
ending
at
11:00,
but
still
allow
cleanup
and
departures
to
occur
until
2
a.m.
now
I
shared
with
her.
Perhaps
my
family
is
unique,
but
my
cousins
and
uncles
when
told
to
leave
a
wedding,
go
to
the
parking
lot
and
so
continued
noise
and
activity.
So
there's
genuine
worry
from
the
neighbors
I
asked
her.
What
her
security
plan
was.
I
asked
her.
AC
What
her
protocol
was
for
ending
the
events
at
either
to
midnight
or
alcohol
at
11,
and
she
had
none.
Now
a
young
mother
of
children
obviously
has
other
priorities.
If
you
have
a
20-hour
operation,
I
think
the
business
plan
ought
to
include
staffing
levels
that
people
could
have
some
sense
of
accountability
or
responsibility.
There's
no
plan
for
a
traffic
monitor
letting
cars
out
on
to
Wilshire.
There's
no
plan
for
asking
guests
to
leave
at
a
timely
hour.
There's
no
plan
to
have
somebody
monitoring
the
noise
if
the
band
were
to
move
outside.
AC
So
I
asked
her
about
those
issues
and
her
answer
was
perhaps
recent
college
graduates
that
are
between
jobs.
She
could
have
show
up
near
the
end
of
event.
It
just
is
not
a
sufficient
thought-out
approach
to
a
potentially
18
thousand
square
foot.
Event
Center
27.
Excuse
me
seven
days
a
week.
Other
concerns
rightly
focused
on
the
aquifer.
These
residents,
who
have
built
homes
and
have
wells,
supply
and
service
to
their
families,
know
they
live
in
a
highly
vulnerable
aquifer.
AC
As
your
City
plan
and
staff
report
indicates,
they
take
steps
every
day
to
limit
water
as
I
shared
with
you.
It
I
think
you've
received
some
emails,
they
often
forego
landscape
issues
and
water
and
outside
of
their
home
because
they
worry
about
depletion.
When
I
asked
if
she
would
consider
extending
the
water
line,
a
staff
report
suggested
as
a
technical
requirement.
AC
She
said
no,
when
I
shared
that
neighbors,
who
have
recently
been
affected
by
wildfires
in
the
area
of
real
concern
about
the
amount
of
activity,
attendance
and
traffic
on
those
20
acres
every
day
of
the
week
with
some
outdoor
smokers
at
wedding,
with
other
issues
with
events.
That,
apparently,
would
not
be
monitored.
She
indicated
she
might
build
a
pond
and
install
a
dry
hydrant
to
assist
the
fire
response,
which
is
in
an
area
considered
low
and
rule.
AC
You
hope
it
helps,
but
quite
honestly,
if
you're
not
willing
to
extend
the
city
water
line,
I'm
guessing
you
probably
are
not
going
to
be
willing
to
incur
the
expense
associated
with
a
sufficient
dry
hydrant
system
to
keep
that
area
safe
from
wildfires
staff
report
required
extension,
the
water
main
from
sooner
and
Wilshire.
Now,
there's
been
some
email
traffic
from
a
previous
attorney
about
possibly
waving
that
because
her
attorney
at
the
time
was
alleging
it's
too
far
from
the
water
main
meaning
it's
too
far
from
the
intersection
I.
AC
Think
that
makes
the
neighbors
concerns
case.
Quite
honestly,
because
if
you
are
saying
only
essential
commercial
services
in
an
RM
or
RL
area
could
be
at
intersections,
you
wouldn't
be
too
far
from
water
services.
She's
picked
a
rural,
remote
area
and
would
like
to
use
the
remoteness
as
an
excuse
to
avoid
extending
the
water
line
and
I
will
share
with
you.
AC
Sadly,
the
applicant
clear-cut,
a
good
portion
of
the
parcel
already
the
aerial
that
I
showed
you
from
the
assessor's
office
is
an
old
picture.
If
you
use
the
drone
or
flew
over
it
today,
you'd
see
red
dirt.
Much
of
the
middle
has
been
scraped.
So
now
you
fall
back
into
your
mitigation
plan
for
an
upland
forest
with
things
being
replanted.
AC
Now,
if
you
read
the
application
and
the
master
plan
submitted,
we
recognize
it
has
a
logo,
some
pictures
from
the
internet
and
a
small
rendering,
but
there
really
are
no
genuine
renderings
about
how
to
mitigate
issues
like
upland
forest
restoration.
How
much
setback
is
required
for
perhaps
a
green
screen,
so
to
speak
with
trees,
particularly
for
those
neighbors
on
North
East,
71st
Street,
if
she
were
allowed
to
do
phase
2,
so
the
comprehensive
plans
hierarchy
for
mitigation
reads
one
avoidance
and
minimization
not
possible.
AC
It's
been
clear-cut
to
restoration,
we
are,
but
the
plan
doesn't
speak
to
it
three
offset.
Yet.
As
the
staff
report
points
out,
the
PD
makes
no
indication
which
areas
will
have
tree
preservation
or
replanting,
as
your
comprehensive
plan
recommends.
Fire
service
is
deemed
rural
response,
but
in
the
area
deemed
longer
than
rural
response.
That
is
a
genuine
concern
for
people
who
are
seated
behind
me
that
have
recently
experienced
a
wild
fire.
AC
One
gentleman
who
had
to
rebuild
from
losing
his
home
hours
of
operation
as
I
mentioned
a
number
of
neighbors,
are
here
to
share
their
personal
perspectives,
I'm
thankful
that
they
are,
but,
quite
frankly,
even
18
hours
a
day.
Seven
days
a
week
is
disruptive
to
this
residential
or
otherwise
agricultural
area.
19
hours,
a
day
of
alcohol
service,
potentially
she's
agreed
to
not
pursue
an
able
license,
but
to
rely
on
caterers
with
license.
AC
That
actually
worries
me
in
their
sense
that
caterers
are
incentivized
to
sell
as
much
booze
as
possible
because
there's
quite
a
markup
on
their
profitability.
So
I'm
not
sure
the
business
plan
has
been
fully
thought
through
in
terms
of
that
modest
reduction
of
three
hours
of
alcohol
service
and
what
it
would
do
to
the
plan.
AC
Oklahoma
City
doesn't
need
this
event
center
at
this
location.
The
neighborhood
certainly
doesn't
need
this
Event
Center
at
this
location.
There
is
no
quote
necessity
to
it
and
it
certainly
isn't
quote
essential,
as
your
plan
requires.
If
this
project
is
built
at
either
6,000
or
18,000
square
feet,
as
proposed,
it
impacts,
will
last
forever
to
the
detriment
of
these
surrounding
neighbors,
who
certainly
didn't
ask
for
it?
If
built,
only
nearby
residents
will
be
left
to
monitor
whether
ordinances
are
followed
when
an
event
such
as
a
wedding
is
too
loud
or
neighbors.
AC
If
the
slate
is
in
fact
clean,
we
would
ask
that
you
deny
the
application,
as
your
Planning
Commission
did
unanimously
and
really
reset
what
should
have
been
step.
One
neighborhood
coordination
we'd
like
her
plan
to
be
revised
beyond
that
at
that
point,
so
that
staff
has
a
chance
to
weigh
it
again
so
that
your
appointed
planning
commissioners
have
a
chance
to
weigh
it
again
before
being
forced
to
a
decision
at
this
council.
AC
Oklahoma
see
the
plan.
Okay,
see
rightly
suggests
this
proposed
PUD
conflicts
with
existing
uses
and
since,
as
I
pointed
out
so
much
of
a
land
around
it
in
two
directions
is
undeveloped,
conflicts
with
potential
uses.
One
of
those
owners
is
here
today.
Gross
compatibility
is
measured
by
one
traffic
differences
caused
by
proposed
projects
to
building
scale
and
site
design,
significant
differences
between
height
and
scale
and
three
operational
impacts
like
noise,
outdoor
lights,
etc.
That
negatively
impact
neighbors.
AC
This
PUD
fails
in
all
those
directions
on
June
23rd
when
I
had
a
chance
to
meet
with
the
application.
The
applicant
I
asked
her,
give
us
a
sense
of
the
buildings.
How
do
you
cite
them?
How
do
you
follow
the
plans,
recommendations
of
how
to
minimize
effect
she
indicated
to
be
a
one-story
building,
but
at
its
peak
would
be
34
feet
tall.
There
are
no
structures
within
that
section
that
are
34
feet
tall,
not
even
barns,
and
at
the
center
of
that
section
parcel.
That
is
a
high
point.
AC
I'm,
not
sure
how
you
design
around
that
I'm,
not
sure
what
trees
provide
enough
insulation
so
that
the
rural
character
is
preserved,
as
promised
in
the
code
in
the
plan,
so
I
would
share
with
you.
In
conclusion,
this
PUD
is
grossly
incompatible
with
your
plan,
with
your
ordinance
with
even
staffs
report
it's
and
should
be
denied,
even
if
you
think
it's
just
highly
incompatible
and
that
mitigation
effort
should
be
taken
today.
AC
The
applicants
desire
does
not
show
to
me
certainly
to
the
satisfaction
of
the
neighbors
sufficient
mitigation
to
eliminate
these
risks.
That
would
impact
them
forever.
I
would
be
glad
to
take
any
questions
and
I'm
thankful
that
on
this
long
agenda
day
that
you've
been
kind
enough
to
allow
us
to
be
heard.
AC
We
did
agree
to
the
continuance
on
June
20th,
and
we
did
that
so
that
we
could
have
a
conversation
again
that
we
initiated,
but
with
the
minimal
modest
revisions
that
she
indicated,
she
was
willing
to
consider
the
neighborhood
unanimously
directed
me
as
their
attorney
to
please
ask
you
to
deny
this,
because
that's
the
only
leverage
we
feel
would
actually
allow
this
process
to
restart.
Now.
Just
a
word
of
concern
about
the
indefinite
deferral
as
I
understand
it.
AC
This
would
allow
the
applicant
to
come
back
before
you
at
any
time
by
paying
half
the
fee
for
notice
and
that
application
could
be
begin
before
you
unchanged,
but
as
I
further
understand
it,
the
protesters
would
have
to
start
over.
It'd
have
to
incur
expense,
they'd
have
to
get
again
another
petition
associated
with
exceeding
the
50%
threshold.
We
don't
feel
that
is
fair.
The
applicant
has
driven
this
issue
to
the
exclusion
of
the
neighbors
and
the
thought
that
we
have
to
monitor
City
agendas
going
forward
and
they
would
have
to
incur
that
expense.
W
S
The
motion
is
for
denial.
Is
there
a
second
okay?
This
will
be
voting
for
denial,
its
approved
unanimously.
Okay.
Next
item
is
item
E,
a
public
hearing
on
proposed
amendments
to
ordinances
related
to
animals,
and
we
have
two
individuals
we'll
wait
just
a
second
and
then
we
have
two
individuals
signed
up.
AA
Going
to
end
up
voting
on
is
the
amendment
that
I
proposed.
Essentially
it's
going
to
keep
the
ordinance
the
same.
The
only
thing
that
will
change
in
the
existing
ordinances
that
it
takes
out
the
language
that
allows
the
exception
for
people
just
complaining
about
cats,
so,
but
it
will
leave
in
the
exception,
for
people
who
bring
in
the
cats
that
they
still
have
a
say
in
whether
or
not
they're
returned.
So
that's
that's
the
what
the
ordinance
or
that's,
what
the
inlet
that
I'm
proposing
is.
AA
O
O
AA
AA
That
correct,
yes,
yeah,
you're,
right
there
and
I
know
that
a
lot
of
the
discussion
is
all
about
the
TNR
program
and
whether
or
not
it
works,
and
we
do
have
a
tee
in
our
program
and
I
know
that
people
from
the
Humane
Society
and
from
our
analog
fair,
would
say
it's
a
modified
TNR
program.
But
I,
don't
I'm
not
sitting
here,
arguing
that
the
TNR
program
doesn't
work.
I,
think
that
it's
a
strange,
logical
jump
that
I
struggle
to
make
the
argument
to
that.
AA
It
does
work,
but
but
I
think
that
some
of
the
numbers
that
they
said
it
would
they
have.
The
numbers
that
we
want
to
go
down
have
gone
down.
The
numbers
that
we
want
to
go
up
have
gone
up.
They
just
haven't
gone
as
as
extreme
as
some
of
the
other
cities
that
have
done
the
same
thing
so
I
just
amazing
it
solely
on
the
fact
that
there
are
trappers
who
spend
their
time,
energy
and
money
doing
it
and
we're
essentially
taking
their
ability
to
tell
our
staff
that
they
don't
want
to
return.
J
U
A
AD
Lady,
no
sir
I
tried
to
make
it
short
and
mr.
Greiner
I
could
barely
hear
what
you
said.
Yes,
oh
please
I'm,
not
sure
I'm,
but
I
just
wanted
to
say
today
is
a
day.
It
has
been
quite
an
eye-opening
opener
to
watch
this
elected
governing
body
in
operation.
My
hopes
are
not
high.
Today,
since
the
mayor
announced
the
OKC,
shelter
would
become
a
no-kill
shelter
at
the
last
meeting
before
there
was
even
a
public
hearing
on
this
situation.
AD
What
a
revealing
statement
that
was
to
me
when
I
mentioned
the
shelter
would
respond,
would
not
respond
to
kittens
on
the
roof.
At
Baptist
Hospital
the
mayor
looked
at
John
Geary
and
made
the
comment
or
John.
You
can't
go
on
private
property
right
and
John
said
right
and
yet
now
you're,
considering
returning
unwanted
unfeeling,
leukemias
check
cat
to
private
properties.
Is
that
not
an
invasion
of
citizens
right?
AD
The
whole
ordinance
procedure
just
has
not
added
up
to
me.
I
truly
hope
that
today's
decision
we
based
on
the
rights
of
citizens
in
the
humane
consideration
of
the
cats
and
not
based
on
any
contributors
of
any
of
your
all's
campaigns,
desires
I.
Thank
you
all
for
your
time.
I
can't
be
short
here
about.
A
AE
Good
morning,
historically,
many
shelters
have
routinely
admitted
more
healthy
cats
and
could
be
placed
in
adoptive
home,
while
the
intention
behind
this
practice
has
been
to
protect
both
cats
and
communities.
The
result
has
been
chronically
overcrowded
shelters
and
the
deaths
of
many
millions
of
cats.
At
one
time
this
was
seen
as
sadly
annex
capable.
However,
new
research
and
innovative
programs
show
us
that
there
are
humane
and
cost
effective
alternative
to
the
traditional
approach.
AE
Our
community
cat
ordinance
in
place
is
written
to
allow
for
two
exception
on
why
a
cat
may
not
be
able
to
be
returned.
Oklahoma
City
animal
welfare
has
requested
exception,
a
be
removed
from
the
ordinance.
Ok,
humane
support
this
request.
The
changes
needed
in
order
for
a
significant
impact
to
be
achieved,
and
no
other
successful
city
has
been
found
to
have
this
exception
in
their
ordinance.
AE
The
proposed
change
suggested
by
Councilman
Reiner
adds
exception
a
back
in
and
will
actually
cause
this
morning's
upcoming
vote
to
be
moot,
as
it
will
bring
no
change
to
the
ordinance.
Last
year.
Ok,
humane
staff
performed
15,000,
spay
and
neuter
surgeries,
of
which
2200
of
those
were
free
roaming,
community
cats,
70%
of
those
cats,
were
brought
to
our
clinic
by
private
citizens.
People
who
saw
the
cats
in
their
neighborhoods
and
just
wanted
to
ensure
that
they
did
not
multiply.
In
addition
to
those
2,200
cats,
Oklahoma
City
animal
welfare
sought
an
additional.
AE
Nearly
7,000
cats
enter
their
doors
in
2016
and
then
euthanized
40%
of
the
adults,
the
majority
of
whom
work
for
the
community
cat
program.
They
did
the
same
thing
in
2015
and
every
year
before
that,
with
the
euthanasia
number
being
higher
without
the
change
to
current
ordinance,
as
originally
requested
by
Oklahoma
City
Animal
Welfare.
There
will
be
no
positive
change
on
this
number,
nor
will
okay,
humane
funds.
A
community
cat
coordinator,
our
sister
cities,
have
implemented
effective,
proven
community
cat
programs
and
are
achieving
higher
and
higher
save
rates.
AE
We
will
not
reach
our
publicly
stated
goal
of
75%
save
rate
without
a
robust
community
cat
program
as
part
of
a
holistic
approach,
allowing
our
shelter
to
focus
on
positive
life,
saving
programs
that
account
for
the
needs
of
cats
and
people
in
our
community
I'm,
requesting
that
the
City
Council
take
a
further
look
at
the
ordinance.
We're
voting
I
appreciate
your
time
and
can
answer
any
questions.
Okay,.
O
O
I
AE
M
J
Their
argument
center
around
that
it
could
actually
be
more
humane
in
some
cases,
for
the
shelter
to
accept
all
cats
and
in
some
cases,
euthanize,
as
opposed
to
put
them
back
in
an
environment
where
they
would
be
subject
to
to
other
animals
to
disease.
And
then
they
cite
data
from
the
CDC
talking
about
the
spread
of
disease,
but
the
humans
exposure
of
humans
to
rabies.
But
this
is
the
primary
carrier
of
rabies
to
humans
to
children
and
then
among
among
other
animals,
cats.
AE
These
cats
that
are
coming
into
the
city,
shelter
that
would
be
candidates
for
the
program
are
already
doing
well,
where
they're
at
so
there
may
be
someone
caring
for
them.
We
know
that
we
have
returned
people's
personal
pets,
because
cats
are
a
little
bit
more
loosely
owned
and
are
kept
outside.
So
I
would
like
to
have
my
cat
back
if
it
accidentally
ended
up
at
the
city,
shelter
and
but
the
cats
are
doing
well,
they're
healthy
and
they
wouldn't
be
returned
to
an
area
that
we
understood
to
be
dangerous.
AE
S
S
T
Somebody
could
speak
to
this.
I
really
appreciate
it.
I
happen
to
be
a
property
owner,
do
I
have
any
say
in
this
whole
thing,
and
any
rights
I
may
not
want
the
cat
back
injure.
It
seems
to
me
everything
is
being
focused
on
the
cat
and
what
worried
about?
Is
there
a
balance
here
that
I'm
missing
there.
T
The
danger
is
I,
just
don't
want.
I
haven't
I've
had
some
neighbors,
who
have
been
very,
very
emotional
in
saying
that
they
have
stray
cats.
This
is
before
the
community
cat
nomenclature
got
to
us.
They've
had
stray
cats
who
are
impacting
negatively
their
ability
to
maintain
their
property
to
plant
their
flowers.
They've
tried
all
types
of
remedies
to
make
their
property
unattractive
to
these
cats
and
the
cats
seem
to
come
anyway.
That's
the
people
that
I'm
talking
to
well.
X
If
we
we
ran
into
that
situation,
we
would
work
with
those
individuals.
This
return
is
really
in
the
radius
of
a
mile,
so
it's
not
directly
back
to
their
property,
but
we
are
super
intended
to
be
willing
to
work
with
people
that
have
us
in
extreme
situation.
If
the
cats
damaging
property,
those
types
of
things
I
mean
we
need
to
be
flexible,
we
understand
that
we
would.
We
would
do
that.
It's.
AE
Important
to
note
that
there
is
a
documented
vacuum
effect,
so
when
cats
are
trapped
and
removed,
they
will
most
likely
be.
The
spaces
will
come
back
in
with
cats
that
move
into
the
area,
reproduction
or
potentially
animals
that
are
lost
or
abandoned.
So
there
is
a
resource
there,
most
likely,
whether
or
not
a
human
is
providing
it,
and
the
cats
will
continue
to
show
up
which
approximately
two
percent
of
them
are
only
spayed
and
neutered,
whereas
people's
personal
pets
upwards
to
80
percent,
will
be
spayed
or
neutered.
J
AE
J
L
Mayor,
thank
you
very
much
for
allowing
me
to
speak.
My
name
is
Jack
middle
initial
elast
named
white
and
I
am
a
resident
of
Oklahoma
City
on
34:25
northwest
51st
Street
in
Ward.
2
I
am
certainly
not
against
cats.
31
years
ago,
when
I
married,
this
lovely
lady
in
yellow
she
hadn't
washed
the
cat.
That
was
a
trust
banker
with
the
Liberty
National
Bank
at
the
time
and
I
would
come
home
in
the
evenings.
Morris
the
cat
would
jump
on
me
and
I
would
have
cat
hair.
All
over.
My
seat
did
I
ever
complain.
L
A
L
Cats
have
an
average
of
1.4
litters
per
year
with
an
average
of
3.5
live,
live
births
and
each
letter
that
equals
four
point:
nine
kittens
per
year
per
female
feral
cat.
Indeed,
a
pair
of
breeding
cats
and
their
offspring
can
produce
four
hundred
and
twenty
thousand
kittens
over
a
seven-year
period.
L
Now
we
have
neighbors
on
different
corners
of
our
properties,
both
feed
stray
cats,
I'm
not
going
to
argue
between
the
different
difference
of
a
stray
cat
and
a
feral
cat.
There
is
a
difference,
but
anyway
they
cross
our
yard.
My
wife
is
a
master
gardener
and
does
a
super
job
of
maintaining
flowers
and
beds
in
the
yard.
L
L
The
way
I
was
director
of
Finance
for
the
state
of
Oklahoma
under
governor
Walters
I
was
a
trust
banker,
I
understand
finances
and
trapping
and
euthanizing
is
a
heck
of
a
lot
cheaper
on
society
than
taking
them
to
some
other
place.
I
have
a
good
friend
who
owns
a
condominium
unit
on
41st
Street.
They
had
two
residents
that
fed
stray
cats.
They
find
them
six
hundred
and
twenty
dollars
per
resident
if
they
fed
those
cats
they
stopped
feeding
them.
Thanks.
AD
Sar
about
three
years
ago,
I
fell
out
of
a
tree
and
shattered
my
head.
Okay,
so
I
was
out
of
commission
for
quite
a
while,
which
put
me
at
a
trapping
on
the
north
side
of
ovals.
The
gentleman
who
was
said
he
would
trap
there
did
not
the
one
older
woman
there
knew
I
had
broken.
My
hip
left
me
alone
for
several
months
close
to
a
year.
If
she
called
me
she,
the
Claudia,
are
you
doing
any
better
and
I
said
yes,
I'm
back
to
doing
everything
she
said,
I
need
your
help
and
I
said.
AD
What's
wrong,
Vonda
and
she
said
I'm
covered
with
cats,
okay
and
so
I
went
over.
There
started
trapping
I've
been
out
of
commission
for
about
nine
months
to
a
year,
I
tried
53
cats
on
their
property.
30
of
them
were
hit
ins-
okay.
This
is
you're
saying
one
year.
This
is
what
can
happen
if
you
give
it
a
one
year
test.
It
gets
out
of
control
that
quick
and
how
to
be
Oklahoma
City
animals.
She
ought
to
respond
to
this.
Oh,
they
ordered
from
me
the
name
and
number
of
this
woman
a
victim.
AD
She
was
a
right-wing
Christian
conservative
by
the
way
dime
at
that
time.
I
did
not
know
it.
Chrissa
wives,
from
the
Oakland
City
Animal
Shelter,
called
her
tried
to
strong-arm
this
sweet
little
old
lady
into
returning
the
big
thing
returning
those
cats
Vonda.
God
bless
her
all
100
pounds
over,
stood
her
ground
and
said.
No,
she
called
me
she
was
lit
with
it.
What
type
of
people
she
dealt
with
at
the
shelter
and
they're
sitting
there
saying
they'll
work
with
property
owners.
I
know
different.
All.
AD
A
AD
A
AA
You
know
I
went
to
a
meeting
at
the
at
the
animal
shelter
with
in
John.
Gary
said
something
at
the
meeting
that
I,
as
resonated
with
me.
This
whole
time
is
that
we
we
all
want
the
same
thing.
We
all
want
less
cats,
we
all
want
less
unwanted
cats.
We
all
want
less
dumped
cats,
we
all
want
less
property
damage
from
the
cats,
I
mean
it,
and
so
there's
just
a
disagreement
on
how
we
get
there
and
and
I
feel
like
with
this
whole
TNR
thing.
AA
A
A
J
X
Any
time
we
have
someone
in
that
that
is
has
serious
concerns.
Like
counseling
McAtee
talked
about,
I
mean
the
superintendent
will
talk
to
them
and
see
if
we
can
work
out
a
solution,
but
that's
going
to
be
in
our
case
by
case
basis.
It
won't
be
every
time
you
know.
I
I've
looked
at
the
I'm,
not
a
an
animal
expert
by
any
means,
but
you
know
I
would
have
proposed
this,
but
I
didn't
think
it
was
going
to
help
the
city
and
so
we'll
just
have
to
fit.
J
J
G
A
X
A
A
A
A
Right
cash
device
and
G
passage
unanimously
as
well
all
right
item,
9
H
is
the
continuation
of
our
previous
labor
agreements.
While
the
negotiations
continue-
and
we
do
this
because
it's
the
first
meeting
of
the
new
fiscal
year-
is
there
a
meeting
on
motion
on
nine
eight
of
s
there.
Second,
all
right
cast
your
votes,
it
passes
unanimously
and
I
guess
item
actually
9h
was
for
asking
me
and
then
so.
Nine
I
will
be
the
same
thing.
I
just
discussed
on
the
police.
A
All
right.
We're
voting
on
item
9,
I
it
passed
unanimously
and
then
9j
is
our
agreement
with
the
firefighters
that
all
right
cast
your
votes.
It
passes
unanimously
item
9
k,
understand
we
do
not
need
executive
sessions
or
a
motion
to
a
would
be
in
order
all
right,
Castro
votes,
it
passed
unanimously
item
9
l
understand
we
do
not
need
executive
session,
so
a
motion
to
approve
would
be
in
order
cast
your
votes
item.
A
A
Right
and
is
there
a
second
and
we
do
not
necessarily
need
executive
session?
Do
we
Wiley?
Okay?
So
we
have
a
motion.
A
second
we're
voting
on
item
9
in
it
passes
unanimously
item
9,
o
its
claims
recommended
for
denial.
Is
there
anyone
here,
hoping
to
speak
and
or
any
item
listed
under
9?
Oh
all,
right?
How
about
a
motion
cast
your
votes?
It
passes
unanimously
item
10a,
as
claims
recommended
for
approval.
Is
there
any
one
here
hoping
to
speak
under
any
of
these
items,
all
right?
How
about
a
motion?
Sir?
A
G
You
this
is,
as
you
said,
an
ordinance
on
final
hearing,
it's
to
amend,
chapter
8
of
our
Oklahoma
City
Municipal
Code,
with
regards
to
our
animal
welfare
officers
and
the
judicial
system.
Principally
it
does
three
things
that
provide
safety
to
area
residents.
It
has
enhanced
enhanced
penalties
for
violators
and
it
clarifies
requirements
for
reclaiming
an
impounded
animal
I
know
there
are
several
people
that
want
to
speak,
including
I
know
at
least
one
of
mrs.
George
daughters
is
here
today
and
so
I'd
hope.
E
My
name
is
Mead
hedge
line.
I
live
at
five
733
Northwest
8016,
Oklahoma
City.
This
ordinance
says
spending
here
is
all
you've
got
right
now.
It's
all
you're,
probably
ever
going
to
have
in
terms
of
enhancing
the
public
safety,
because
there
is
no
way
that
animal
control
or
the
police
department
can
respond
soon
enough.
Once
the
dog
attack
has
started,
that's
too
late,
so
the
second
thing
is
I.
The
requirement
is
that
the
dog
be
confined
dogs
generally
I
have
a
neighbor
he's
in
his
late
70s
he's
lived
in
the
house
for
a
long
time.
E
His
fence
has
deteriorated.
The
neighbor
on
the
other
side,
us
on
the
other
side
of
my
back
fence,
did
put
up
a
hog
wire
fence
with
people's
that's,
not
very
expensive,
but
for
my
neighbor
to
replace
his
fence
is
very
costly.
The
responsibility
for
the
containment
must
be
left
with
the
dog
owner,
not
the
neighbor
who
happens.
They
have
a
fence,
that's
deteriorated
with
that.
I
have
to
say
one
other
thing.
The
thing
I
get
with
my
water
bill.
It
says
if
you
have
an
emergency
call
9-1-1.
I
called
9-1-1,
I'm
not
picking
on
anybody.

Been
watching
this
man
work
extremely
hard
to
repair
our
fence.
Our
fence
has
been
the
only
defense
against
the
on
the
other
side
until
they
were
forced
on
the
on
the
west
side
to
put
up
the
enclosure,
at
which
time
they
were
very
abusive
verbally
to
my
husband,
who
was
trying
to
repair
our
fence
to
contain
the
other
dogs
that
are
on
the
other
side.
I
can't
stress
this
enough.
AF
The
man's
been
working
on
this
like
crazy
he's,
73
years
old,
a
SMI
on
Saturday,
he
went
to
get
supplies
and
a
pitbull
from
the
east
side
was
in
our
backyard.
Now
you
have
to
understand
my
position.
I
believe
that
this
pitbull
is
part
of
the
litter
of
the
puppies
that
killed
the
seals
short
now
I'm
not
going
to
go
out
in
my
backyard
and
say
nice
doggy
go
home.
AF
AF
Like
you
to
pass
the
ordinance,
but
clearly,
even
if
you
pass
the
ordinance
when
we
call
nine-one-one,
the
police
have
told
us,
we
can't
respond
when
we
call
animal
control,
which
we
did
at
10
o'clock
in
the
morning
on
Saturday,
in
which
my
husband
waited
until
somebody
responded
to
even
go
out
in
the
backyard
because
of
me
being
hysterical.
What
I
really
firmly
believe
in
my
heart,
there
was
a
whole
day
he
lost
working
on
our
fence,
yeah.

If
you
have
a
neighbor
whose
dog
continually
is
tearing
up
your
property
and
your
fence
and
yeah
so
the
earth,
your
neighbor,
by
the
way
you're
describing
it
is
responsible
for
the
destruction
of
your
property,
isn't
always
something
we
can
handle,
but
across
the
street
at
the
courthouse,
you
may
have
a
civil
opportunity
over
there.
Well.
AF
AF
AF
A
AB
G
Thanks
for
coming
to
thank
you
the
before
I
make
the
motion.
The
one
thing
I
want
to
do.
Thank
is
the
the
opinion
staff
at
the
Daily
Oklahoman,
who
came
out
in
support
of
this
ordinance
and,
and
they
got
really
quick
to
the
point,
and
that
was
that
this
is
targeted
at
irresponsible
owners
and
they
say
it
best
in
the
last
paragraph.
The
long
and
short
of
it
is
that
owners
of
most
dogs
won't
be
significantly
affected
by
the
new
ordinance.
However,
those
who
keep
potentially
violent
dogs
would
face
greater
responsibility
as
well.
G
They
should,
and
so
I
think
the
Daily
Oklahoman
for
supporting
that
I
also
want
to
thank
Jonathan,
Gary,
Bob,
Tina,
Laura,
Johnson,
Orville,
Jones,
Rita,
Douglas,
Talley,
Kenneth,
Jordan
and
Cindy
Richards,
because
they
put
a
lot
of
hours
into
this
and
I
think
it's
a
good
ordinance
and
I
would
move
for
its
approval
at
this
time.
All.
A
F
A
W
Right
Thank
You
mr.
mayor
last
week,
I
had
a
opportunity
to
speak
at
the
school
board
meeting.
I
know
some
may
question
the
reason
why
I
spoke
at
the
school
board
meeting,
but
I
was
there
speaking
on
behalf
of
every
black
elected
official
as
it
relates
to
the
closing
of
a
particular
school.
Some
may
question
whether
or
not
I
should
have
got
involved
in
that
process.
W
Members
I
did
get
on
Facebook
and
put
it
out
there
that,
yes,
the
school
district
was
looking
at
closing
the
school
because
she
asked
me
she
said
councilman
Pettis
I
need
your
help.
I
have
tried
to
advocate
to
the
best
of
my
abilities,
to
represent
this.
This
area,
that
is
african-american,
but
the
school
district
is
not
hearing
me
I
need
your
help.
I
need
the
black
elected
officials
helped,
and
so
that's
what
I
did
I
know
that
a
video
is
getting
ready
to
be
playing
soon
of
me
going
out,
but
again
I,
don't
apologize.
W
W
It's
sad
to
say
that
the
relationship
is
not
a
a
good
working
relationship,
but
I
hope
on
that
one
day
it
will
be
I
hope
that
we
were
able
to
work
hand
in
hand
with
all
the
school
board.
Members,
like
I,
said
I
I
know
some
have
questioned
me
getting
involved,
but
again,
I
was
speaking
on
behalf
of
every
black
elected
official
and
I'm,
no
different
than
the
previous
Ward
seven
council.
For
me
briefly,.
O
Mary
I
just
wanted
to
congratulate
them.
The
after-school
Network
and
thank
the
council
for
supporting
that
effort.
They
work
with
the
students
at
Ft,
moon
and
at
Eugene
fields
elementary
school
and
the
kids
had
their
final
wrap-up
session
last
week
at
the
Chesapeake
boathouse
and
the
results
are
just
stunning
they're
doing
great
things
and
I
really
appreciate
everybody's
efforts
in
Category
David.
J
Did
want
to
show
that
video,
because
I
think
I
think
we
have
a
problem,
and
that
is
that
with
regularity,
we
are
addressing
members
of
another
elected
body
in
a
way
that
I,
don't
think,
is
healthy
and
I
think
it
is
different
than
what
other
council
persons
from
this
body
have
done.
I
can't
show
the
video,
but
essentially
it
involves
a
raised
voice
addressing
the
superintendent
and
the
chair
of
the
Oklahoma
City
Public
Schools,
by
name
pointing
at
them
and
accusing
them
of
lying.
J
W
Would
not
I
too
do
not
whatsoever.
Councilmen
should
be
apologize
for
anything.
I
said
out
loud,
because
that
is
the
truth.
I
mean
it
when
we
and
maybe
we
should
have
a
larger
discussion
about
rape
and
that
I
think
sometimes
our
city,
we
are
afraid
to
have.
Everyone
knows
that
from
time
to
time,
I
do
come
off
as
a
preacher,
but
if
you
take
the
the
content
of
black
elected
officials,
that's
something
that
has
a
vast
majority
of
every
black
elected
official
when
they
speak.
Sometimes
they
do
sound
like
a
project.
W
I,
don't
apologize
for
that
and
I.
Don't
apologize
for
saying
what
I
said,
because
as
a
black
man
I'm
telling
you
what
I
saw
I'm
telling
you
what
the
community
felt
so
I,
don't
apologize
at
all,
in
my
words,
are
the
same
words
that
all
the
other
black
elected
officials
who
represents
Ted
ever
and
I.
Don't
apologize
for
that
I'm
just
going
to
tell
you
straight
up:
I'm
not
going
to
apologize.
Half
the
school
district
been
in
honest.
It.
W
Yes,
after
talking
to
mr.
bird
I,
did
become
the
black
Donald
Trump
and
I
did
get
on
social
media
and
I
informed
the
people.
What
was
going
on
and
I
own
pologize
I'm,
sorry,
but
the
excuse
that
you
all
have
given
that's
unacceptable
and
it
is.
It
is
truly
unacceptable
to
wait
to
the
last
minute
to
inform
the
community
that
you
are
thinking
about
closing
their
schools.
If
this
neighborhood
it
was
a
white
neighborhood.
W
Madam
chair,
you
wouldn't
have
given
that
directions
and
she
did
Madame
superintendent.
You
would
not
have
given
that
direction.
Miss
Rebecca
but
I
say
thank
you
for
informing
the
community.
What
was
going
on
and
I
am
going
to
talk
about
this
issue
at
City
Council
meeting,
because
I
don't
have
any
time
limits
at
City
Council
meeting,
but
I
have
less
than
three
minutes
here,
but
I
just
want
to
publicly
say
thank
you
for
doing
your
job
and
not
I'm.
Chairing
and
not
I'm
superintended
y'all
have
work
to
do
and
again
councilman
city
I.
W
Don't
apologize
for
anything
that
I
said.
I
wish
one
day
you
walk
a
mile
and
a
black
elected
officials
shoe
I
wish
you
would
spend
a
day
with
me,
councilman
Shadid,
and
see
what
I
see
every
single
day
and
you
get
one
one
day
councilman
once
they
spend
one
day
with
me,
you
will
see
the
reason
why
I'm
so
frustrated.
You
will
see
the
reason
why
the
other
black
elected
officials
or
so
frustrated
with
the
school
system,
and
so
so
it
is
so
as
you
criticize
what
I
said,
I
ask
you,
councilmen
should
be
welcome.
W
J
Want
you
I
want
us
all
ultimately
to
be
successful
and
I.
Don't
think
that
it's
effective
and
there
are
two
reasons:
I,
don't
think
it's
effective
number
one.
We
should
look
at
our
own
house.
We
live
in
a
glass
house.
We
have.
Let
me
just
finish
if
I
may
ensure,
we
should
make
sure
that
the
city
addresses
its
issues
on
race
and
that
we
have
I.
Welcome
that
discussion
on
race.
J
J
J
What's
productive
and
effective
is
mark
doing
the
leadership
and
arranging
that
meeting
next
month
that
is
going
to
be
highly
effective
on
raised
Meg
working
on
the
texting,
the
homelessness
thing
I
saw
that
that
is
going
to
make
an
impact
for
the
poor
and
the
disenfranchised.
If
a
member
of
an
elected
body,
another
government
branch
came
and
art
talk
to
our
mayor
in
that
way,
I
would
hope
that
we
would
all
rally
around
and
we
would
not
tolerate
someone
Codd
again.
J
W
By
the
way,
the
school
board
member
who
said
that
she
was
aligned
was
a
black
elected
official
for
the
record,
for
the
record
Charleston
pointed
out
that
one
thing
we
do
not
do
is
lie.
He
was
referring
to
the
superintendent,
so
that
was
again
another
black
elected
official
calling
the
superintendent
out.
Okay,
I.
J
Don't
I
believe
that
there
I
think
that
the
issue,
of
course,
first
of
all,
if
I'm
Aurora
Laura
what
I've
noticed
on
the
first
five
times
that
I've
floated
the
idea
of
floating
a
school.
Is
that
you
get
this
community
response?
You
get
a
great
in
this
particular
case.
There
are
things
that
they
cannot
talk
about:
the
health
conditions
of
the
principal
etc.
You
had
four
teachers
returning
who
had
any
of.
W
The
number
four
was
not
the
correct
number.
Please
let
me
just,
but
if
you
want
to
you
and
I
should
have
a
meeting,
and
we
should
talk
about
this.
That's
also
so
you
can
better
understand
again
my
view
and
I
said
I.
Don't
apologize
and
I
know
you
want
to
make
your
point
but
I'm
just
going
to
tell
you
hey
what
you
see
is
what
you
get
and
I
was
standing
up
for
my
community
I
did,
but
the
people
asked
me
to
do
and
I
do
not
apologize
for
that
at
all.
W
If
you
and
I
want
to
have
you
want
to
have
a
conversation
to
talk
about
how
we
move
things
for
I'm
more
than
willing
to
have
that
conversation,
but
again
I,
don't
apologize
for
it
at
all.
If
you,
if
you
look
at
the
whole
footage
of
that
school
board
meeting,
you
will
find
that
the
black
elected
officials,
the
school
board
members
they
had
things
worse
to
say
than
I
did
so
it
was
just
not
just
me
and
again:
I.
Don't
apologize.
I
did.
I
J
W
J
To
give
stipend
after
this
they
have
now,
the
Union
has
now
been
willing
to
give
a
three
thousand
dollar
stipend
for
people
to
come.
In
now
you
have
teachers
coming
in
to
that
school
that
weren't
before
this
process,
they
would
have
had
a
private
meeting.
Had
you
not
put
it
on
social
media
I,
don't
regret
it
and
I,
don't
regret
I,
not
regretted.
It
almost
certainly
would
have
been
deferred
and
we
could
have
known.
W
Councilman,
if
you
got
a
problem
with
how
I
do
things
you
and
I
need
to
sit
down,
and
you
need
to
walk
a
mile
in
my
shoes,
I
will
walk
a
mile
in
your
shoes.
Okay,
if
you
want
to
really
have
and
figure
out
how
to
move
things
forward,
see
what
I
see
every
single
day
in
Ward
7
when
it
comes
to
education,
I
do
not
apologize,
but
but
the
school
district
has
my
commitment
that
I
will
work
with
them
to
improve
every
last
school.
That's
in
my
world,
I
think.
J
There
I
think
this
body
at
Paislee.
This
speaks
for
itself.
Hopefully
this
body
understands
we
need
to
get
our
own
ship
in
order.
I
strongly
believe
I
have
bitten
my
lip
week
after
week
after
week.
I
believe
that
their
behavior,
it
is
unethical
at
best
that
is
crossing
the
line
that
it's
reflecting
on.
J
All
of
us
I
think
that
it
is
a
cancer,
a
type
of
cancer
that
if
it
is
not
address
and
metastasize
to
all
of
us
and
the
effectiveness
of
this
body
and
I'll,
leave
it
at
that
I
understand
it's
somewhat
cryptic,
but
we
have
an
issue
with
the
behavior
that
has
not
occurred
in
decades.
Obviously,
everybody
that's
it
say.
