B
E
A
This
morning's
council
meeting
is
a
little
bit
unusual
in
that
we
have
something
before
the
autumn's
in
the
office
of
the
mayor.
We're
going
to
have
a
joint
meeting
with
the
Oklahoma
City
Housing
Authority
I.
Don't
expect
it
to
last
too
long,
but
those
of
you
who
came
for
the
office
of
the
mayor
events
will
just
bear
with
us
for
a
few
minutes
we're
going
to
take
care
of
some
business
here,
we're
going
to
be
holding
a
public
hearing
as
we
call
the
meeting
to
order
with
the
Oklahoma
City
Housing
Authority
Leslie.
F
Good
morning
in
Colgan
assistant,
executive
director
with
the
Oklahoma
City
Housing
Authority,
so
why
we're
here
with
this
public
meeting
today,
hearing
the
Oklahoma
City
Housing
Authority,
issued
an
RFP
request
for
proposals
for
project-based
vouchers
for
the
express
purpose
of
senior
housing,
specifically
as
affordable,
assisted
living.
It
picked
a
project
that
will
deliver
those
units
and,
according
to
the
Housing
Authority
Act
1965
any
time
a
Housing
Authority
approves
new
construction
of
units
above
20
units,
whether
that
that
is
being
the
Housing
Authority
building
those
units
or
allocating
project-based
Housing
Choice
vouchers.
F
To
that
project
we
must
hold
public
hearing
or
jointly
the
City
Council
and
the
board
of
commissioners
for
the
housing
authority
votes
for
that
the
project
is
in
the
public
interest
of
the
community.
That's
the
purpose
of
the
public
hearing
a
little
bit
about
the
project.
The
developer
is
an
organization
called
the
community
enhancement
Corporation,
which
is
actually
an
instrumentality
of
a
Housing
Authority.
It
proposes
to
build
130
units
in
north
Oklahoma,
City
and
northwest
120.
Second
and
western
I,
don't
know
if
you
can
see
the
slides.
I
cannot
see
them
so
I'm
just
talking.
F
So
this
is
going
to
be
an
affordable,
assisted
living
facility.
What
that
means
is
that
it
combines
several
different
funding
sources
together
for
the
purpose
of
serving
extremely
low
income,
individuals,
elderly
individuals.
It
combines
these
project-based
vouchers
with
SSI
income,
as
well
as
the
Medicaid
Waiver,
to
provide
low-cost
assisted
living.
This
facility
will
be
only
the
second
such
facility
in
the
entire
state
of
Oklahoma.
The
first
one
is
90
units
on
the
south
side
at
southwest
59th
Street.
That
is
a
project
that
we
also
provide
our
vouchers
for.
F
This
type
of
facility
allows
a
senior
to
basically
pay
three
or
four
hundred
dollars
a
month,
mainly
for
food
with
the
subsidy
of
the
Medicaid,
low-income
housing
tax
credit
and
the
project-based
voucher
paying
for
everything
else.
Therefore,
it
is
much
more
sustainable
care
for
the
elderly.
This
is
a
development
site
plan
where
we
see
the
main
facility
of
120
units,
those
those
are
the
assisted
units.
There
are
ten
additional
units
at
the
bottom
in
cottages
which
are
independent
units.
F
The
idea
is
ultimately
to
create
a
continuum
of
care
where
low-income
seniors
can
live
independently
and
then
are
guaranteed
a
place
in
our
assisted
living
facility
and
then
can
move
into
skilled
nursing
care
all
in
the
same
campus.
This
is
actually
one
of
the
more
unique
products,
the
entire
country
where
it
includes
primary
care
and
pharmacy
on-site.
F
This
is
these
subs
and
facilities
are
built
more
commonly
in
the
Midwest
and
the
southeast
and
they're
ramping
up
quite
a
bit
because
they're
much
more
cost-effective
to
build
than
skilled
nursing
homes
and
more
cost
of
to
serve
populations,
and
here
here's
a
similar
facility
in
Dallas
that
we're
modeling
this
after
it's
in.
It's
also
a
continuum
of
care
that
was
built
on
Housing
Authority
land.
F
F
So
for
the
purpose
of
this
meeting,
that
is
an
overview
of
the
project
that
the
developer
is
doing
and
the
Oklahoma
City
Housing
Authority
is
trying
to
go
down
the
road
of
administrative
approvals
to
allocate
its
project-based
section,
8
vouchers
to
the
project
so
that
it
can
subsidize
the
operations
of
it
for
its
construction.
I'd
be
happy
to
answer
any
questions
for
you.
F
There's
no
transit
line,
but
most
of
the
seniors
that
live
in
these
types
of
facilities
do
not
go
a
long
way
around
after
the
site.
It
is
near
a
lot
of
services
that
we
like
the
site
a
lot,
because
it
is
north
of
some
targeted,
low-income
areas
to
south
to
the
south,
but
is
also
adjacent
to
the
Memorial
Road
corridor,
just
south
of
Chisolm
Creek
and
TopGolf.
F
H
F
So
the
residents
in
Commons
on
class
and
basically
live
what's
called
independent,
so
they
do
not
need
assistance
for
the
activities
of
daily
living
so
when
they
will
need
those
that
assistance,
sometimes
in
terms
of
mobility
or
accessibility
to
kitchen
and
cooking
or
all
sorts
of
different
things.
The
best
thing
they
can
do
is
move
into
assisted
living,
so
a
lot
of
times
for
the
housing
authority
and
particularly
because
we
do
not
have
these
types
of
facilities
in
the
market.
F
We
bring
the
services
to
those
units
for
home
health
care
and
that's
still
the
most
robust
area
of
services
that
is
available,
but
this
facility
allows
someone
to
move,
have
their
own
one-bedroom
apartment
have
their
own
amenities
and
services
directly
on
site,
because
they
can
no
longer
live
independently.
One.
F
F
I
You
mr.
mayor
I,
just
want
to
take
this
opportunity
to
thank
in,
and
also
the
executive
director
of
the
Oklahoma
house
and
authority
for
thinking
outside
of
the
box,
to
offer
our
more
services
to
the
elderly
population
and
also
thank
you
for
naming
this
complex
after
the
late
John
Johnson,
who
was
the
former
executive
director
of
the
Oklahoma
housing
Oklahoma
City
Housing
Authority
John
Johnson
years
ago,
tried
to
get
the
Housing
Authority
to
start
thinking
outside
the
box
to
transform
public
housing
so
I
again.
I
B
A
Comments
or
questions
from
Council,
okay,
so
we're
going
to
be
voting
a
couple
of
times.
The
council
is
going
to
vote
once
and
then
the
housing
authority
will
vote
on
therein.
I
look
for
a
motion
on
the
council,
all
right
all
in
favor
from
the
councilors
perspectives,
a
I
and
it
passes
unanimously
and
Francis's
had
serving
as
secretary
for
the
housing
authority
this
morning.
J
A
Right,
thank
you
all
very
much.
I
think
that
deserves
a
round
of
applause
for
a
wonderful
investment
in
Oklahoma
City
and
no
with
the
baby
boom
generation
at
the
stage
of
their
life.
They're
in
these
needs
are
only
going
to
increase
going
forward
and
I
know.
America
is
behind
on
all
of
the
infrastructure.
That's
going
to
be
necessary,
but
Oklahoma
City's
way
ahead
of
most
and
our
housing
authorities.
It's
partly
responsible
for
that.
So
thanks
for
y'all
commitment
to
this
area,
this
great
work
anything
else.
A
And
to
start
I'm
going
to
ask
Katie
Francis
to
join
me
up
here
now
you
may
know
Katie
you
may
not,
but
she
represents
thousands
of
girls
in
the
state
of
Oklahoma
who
sell
Girl
Scout
cookies.
Now,
you're,
probably
thinking
you
know
a
really
good,
successful,
Girl
Scout
and
probably
sell
not
just
dozens
but
hundreds
of
cookies
Katie.
How
many
cookies
did
you
sell
this
year?
I
sold.
A
Whatever
obesity
issue
exists
in
Oklahoma
City
is
at
least
partially
Katie's
responsibility
like
I
kid.
This
is
an
amazing
accomplishment.
She
was
on
the
Jimmy
Fallon
show
recently
to
talk
about
being
that
the
record-setting
of
Girl
Scout,
cookie
sales
person,
and
we
have
a
citation
unless
the
clerk
to
read
it,
whereas.
J
A
K
I've
really
enjoyed
every
part
of
Girl
Scouts,
not
just
the
cookie
sale.
One
of
the
greatest
things
about
the
cookie
sale
is
that
I
find
so
many
people
in
the
community
support
me,
so
I
really
enjoy
giving
back
to
the
community,
with
all
sorts
of
really
fun
projects
and
community
service
work
and
also
outside
our
community.
My
troop
is
going
to
be
taking
a
trip
to
Barbados,
but
it's
really
every
part
of
it.
It
is
a
learning
experience
and
everything
that
I
do
for
Girl.
H
A
J
J
Now,
therefore,
Mick
Cornett,
the
mayor
of
the
city
of
Oklahoma
City,
does
hereby
proclaim
Friday
May
19th.
As

and
to

the
importance
of

safety
and
to
be
more
aware,
cyclists
on
our
city
streets,

E
So

congratulations,
Daniela,
that's
fantastic
and
a
coach
of
course
I'm
dating
myself,
but
I
covered
bow
over
him
when
he
was
Oklahoma
high
school
Player
of
the
Year
at
8,
and
then
the
record-setting
University

Oklahoma
point
guard

So
congratulations
bo
on
the
way
your
career
has
has
taken
off
as
a
coach.
A
I
ran
into
Bo
about
December,
and
only
if
you
remember
this
or
not-
but
you
know,
coaches
of
really
good
teams
almost
always
undersell
how
good
their
team
is,
because
they
want
their
players
to
continue
to
work.
Hard
and
I
said
how's
your
team
this
year
and
he
said
we're
really
good
again
about
that
time.
They
went
on
the
20
game,
winning
streak
and
a
record
of
34
and
two
speaks
for
itself.
A
But
these
young
women
represent
Oklahoma
City
all
over
the
country
when
they're
out
playing
our
names
are
on
those
jerseys
when
people
are
watching
them,
play
they're
thinking
about
Oklahoma
City
when,
when
they're
winning
national
champions
and
our
coaches
being
to
determine
be
the
national
coach
of
the
year.
These
are
great
things
for
Oklahoma
City's.
A
We
continue
to
build
our
brand
around
the
country
and
I've
known
I've,
seen
a
group
of
ladies
that
look
healthier
and
more
physically
fit
and
again
that's
a
great
image
for
Oklahoma
City
to
be
presenting
to
the
rest
of
the
country.
So,
let's
show
a
round
of
applause
to
these.
Ladies,
please.
Thank

very
much.
Thank
you.
Gratulations.

the
city
of
Oklahoma
City
that
they
do

City
Public
Schools,
and
the
Rotary
Club
of
Oklahoma
City.
Let's.
A
Show
our
appreciation
to
Laredo
Stevens
and
all
of
that's
for
you
we'll
need
a
motion
to
make
this
official
all
right.
Cast
your
votes,
congratulations
and
look
yeah
way
to
go
and
well
in
law,
radius,
uu
teacher,
one
of
the
finest
high
schools
in
America
and
I'm
sure
there's
some
people
you
want
to
thank.
That
is.
N
Actually,
my
first
teaching
interview
was
at
class
and
SAS
I
got
the
job
and
I
have
been
there
every
single
moment
of
my
teaching
career,
so
I
love,
teaching
social
studies
again
I'm
getting
my
giddy
history
teacher
stuff
going
because
I'm
like
this
cool.
This
is
so
cool
I've
never
been
in
the
council,
chambers
and
I
want
my
students
to
see
this
looks
art
deco
everything
about
it.
I
love
history,
so
it
makes
me
excited
to
be
here
and
I
know:
I
feel
like
a
nerdy
history
teacher
but
I
absolutely
love
it.
N
A
Alright,
we're
on
item
3
of
the
council
agenda
and
item
3.
D
is
a
presentation
by
Roy
Williams,
the
president,
the
greater
Oklahoma
City
Chamber
of
Commerce
who's
going
to
come
forward
today
and
discuss
the
innovation
district
and
our
relationship
with
Brookings
and
their
findings
of
an
18-month
study.
Roy
thank.
O
You
mayor
mr.
mayor
members,
council,
mr.
city
manager,
thank
you
for
the
opportunity
to
share
some
information
with
regard
to
the
innovation
district.
I'll
be
brief,
as
always
in
my
remarks,
but
certainly
be
willing
to
take
any
questions
or
observations.
You
might
have
a
really
quick
recap.
The
chamber
has
been
working
actively
in
the
bioscience
sector
for
more
than
two
decades
now
and
then
more
recently,
with
GES
recent
presence.
O
So
we
struck
up
a
conversation
a
couple
years
ago
with
Bruce
Katz,
who
is
the
head
of
the
Brookings
metropolitan
policy
program
about
the
potential
that
we
thought
existed
here
in
Oklahoma
City
and
the
connection
of
that
to
some
of
the
work
that
he
has
been
doing
globally
on
innovation
districts.
Those
conversations
eventually
led
to
a
formal
engagement
of
the
Brookings
Institute
and
the
chamber,
along
with
the
Alliance
for
economic
development,
the
Health
Center
Foundation,
the
Presbyterian
Health
Foundation,
Oklahoma,
Medical,
Research
Foundation
and
the
oh.
O
U
Health,
Science
Center
collaboratively
came
together
and
actually
funded
this
first
study
of
a
new
initiative
and
the
initiative
was
the
vas
initiative
on
innovation
and
placemaking
that
actually
brought
together
the
Brookings
Institution
and
the
project
for
public
spaces,
the
first
time
ever
in
the
history
of
those
two
entities.
So
they
did
an
extensive
study
here,
a
lot
of
engagement,
a
lot
of
research
and
they
came
back
to
us
with
four
recommendations.
O
Those
recommendations
include,
first
of
all,
to
establish
an
Oklahoma
Center
for
energy
and
health
collaboration.
That
would
serve
really
as
not
only
the
physical
but
the
programmatic
umbrella
for
innovation
and
applied
research
within
those
sectors
and
other
sectors.
The
center
should,
according
to
them,
also
has
a
translational
research
and
commercialization
office
for
really
cross-cutting
industry
research
applications.
O
The
second
recommendation
they
made
is
that
we
implement
a
technology-based
economic
development
and
entrepreneurship
effort
within
the
innovation
district.
That
is
tasked
with
overseeing
specific
business
development
technology,
business
attraction,
marketing,
regional
cluster
development
between
entrepreneurs,
small
and
medium-sized
enterprises
and
large
firms.
Their
third
recommendation
was
to
create
a
more
dense
and
a
more
active
and
a
better
connected
mixed
used
urban
environment
in
and
around
the
innovation
district.
O
They
suggested
that
leadership
that
leaders
should
undertake
intentional
land-use
and
real
estate
developments,
implement
new
place,
making
efforts
and
programs
and
strengthen
connections
between
the
health
center
and
automobile
alley.
That
would
include,
including
that
would
include
improving
bike
and
pedestrian
routes
within
the
health
center
itself
and
then
make
the
innovation
district
really
more
porous
and
connected
to
the
residential
neighborhoods
that
surround
it.
O
And,
finally,
their
fourth
recommendation
was
to
form
a
standing
committee
on
diversity
and
inclusion
that
would
be
charged
with
overseeing
the
design
of
strategies
aimed
at
forging
better
economic,
social
and
physical
connections,
both
between
the
innovation
district
and
the
underserved
communities
that
are
around
it,
and
that
the
committee
should
focus
on
issues
such
as
education,
workforce
development,
entrepreneurship
and
placemaking,
a
neighborhood
development.
So
those
were
their
recommendations.
O
The
real
good
thing
is,
we
didn't
wait
until
we
got
the
recommendations
to
start
working
because
we
sort
of
knew
what
some
of
them
were
going
to
be
so
we're
Regent.
So
we
started
really
to
advances
a
number
of
months
ago.
The
first
was
the
beginning
of
a
series
of
symposiums
around
technologies
that
cut
across
multiple
industries.
These
are
not
exclusive
to
the
district
itself,
but
they
address
industry
across
our
entire
region.
O
O
Although
there
was
limited
capacity
for
people
to
take
part
in
this,
it
was
probably
one
of
the
most
fascinating
things
ever
happened
in
Oklahoma
City
to
hear
these
internationally
acclaimed
researchers
who
are
in
Oklahoma
City
and
who
come
from
Asia,
Europe,
Middle
East
and
are
now
living
here
in
our
really
premier.
Professionals
talk
about
the
application
of
imaging
in
their
particular
industry.
Not
only
was
an
eye
opening
to
people
like
me
who
went
there,
but
it
was
eye-opening
to
each
other
because
they
didn't
know
what
else
was
going
on
here
within
Oklahoma
City.
O
We
now
have
planning
underway
for
another
set
of
these
sessions.
The
next
one
will
be
bringing
multiple
industry
sectors
together
together,
who
will
talk
about
the
application
of
data
analytics
within
their
industry
sector
and
then
we'll
do
another
one
on
sensor
technology,
because
sensor
technology
is
also
industry
cross-cutting.
So
a
second
thing
we
did
beside
those
was
the
Health
Science
Center
Foundation,
which
has
been
around
for
a
number
of
years.
O
They
have
agreed
and
announced
that
they
are
going
to
transform
that
entity
really
to
lead
this
effort,
meaning
running
the
innovation
district,
so
that
will
bring
additional
staff
and
additional
professionals
to
that
entity
as
it
sort
of
morphs
into
this
new
entity.
I'll
conclude
with
telling
you
a
couple
of
challenges
that
were
outlined
and
the
biggest
ones
are
really
around:
creating
connectivity
between
the
district
and
its
neighbors
and
among
the
various
components.
O
Another
challenge
is
that
the
Health
Science
Center
here
in
Oklahoma
City,
is
actually
part
of
the
capital
Planning
Commission,
and
that
Commission
dictates
land
use
and
development
in
the
Health
Science
Center,
so
for
us
to
diversify
the
physical
nature
of
that
space.
We're
going
to
need
significant
changes
in
how
land
use
is
approached
because
right
now,
there's
real
heavy
restrictions
as
to
what
can
go
on
inside
the
Health
Science
Center
and
placemaking
would
also
become
a
priority
of
that.
So
we're
going
to
be
working
on
that
and
finally,
it
was
excuse
me.
M
Just
a
couple
of
questions
or
comments
really
Roy,
you
know
the
business
community.
Often
businesses
can
be
very
competitive
with
one
another
too
and
protect
a
certain
information
they
create
and
develop.
But
this
is
different.
It
seems
like
to
me,
and
my
understanding,
working
with
our
clients,
who
have
a
focus
on
technology
development,
is
that
the
collaboration
among
technology
companies
is
is
very
impressive.
M
G
Edie
three
quick
three
questions.
I
think
I
appreciate
I
enjoyed
reading
the
study
very
much
I
appreciate
your
role
in
making
this
happen.
I
think
this
is
the
key
to
diversifying
our
economy
and
the
way
forward,
and
they
can
play
showed
for
other
cities
how
this
is
working
throughout
the
country,
but
it
identifies
a
lot
of
headwinds
as
as
you
described,
and
specifically
maybe
the
most
sobering
line
was.
The
time
is
not
on
Oklahoma
City
side,
analysts
predicted
in
many
of
these
technologies.
G
Geographic
dominance
will
be
defined
within
the
next
five
to
ten
years,
as
we
get
ready
to
put
a
general
obligation
bond,
which
has
a
potentially
a
10-year
time
frame
and
commits
us
to
the
kind
of
projects
where
potentially,
we
would
draw
from
to
make
the
changes
that
you
alluded
to
where?
Where
would
you
see
the
investment
dollars
coming
from
to
kind
of
make
the
changes
to
the
infrastructure,
the
connectivity,
the
walkability,
the
placemaking,
where,
if
we,
if
we
passed
a
bond
as
a
ten-year
commitment,
and
these
things
aren't
in
there,
where?
O
Are
some
national
private
developers
who
are
attracted
to
innovation,
districts,
Philadelphia
and
st.
Louis,
and
a
number
of
other
ones
have
actually
brought
in
developers
who
have
built
facilities
that
contain
a
lot
of
these
kind
of
infrastructure
needs?
So
you
know
each
community
addresses
it
kind
of.
However,
their
resources
allow
them
to
do
it,
but
there
is.
There
is
interest
in
the
development
community
nationally
to
be
a
part
of
innovation
districts,
but.
G
O
I
think
there's
still
a
lot
of
research
that
needs
to
take
place
on
kind
of
how
and
what
all
you
need
to
do
from
an
infrastructure
standpoint
to
make
it
more
accessible,
more
walkable,
more
amenable
to
housing,
commercial.
All
of
that
that
another
challenge
is
is
property
because
pretty
much
all
the
property
up,
there
is
owned
by
foundations,
institutions,
research
entities
and
stuff,
and
they
have
to
be
willing
as
well,
to
either
partner
or
release
some
of
that
property
for
further
development
too
so
kind
of.
O
Until
you
get
a
consensus
on
what
the
overall
master
plan
is,
it's
kind
of
difficult
to
know
really.
What
is
the
appetite
for
really
kind
of
changing
the
whole
model
up
there
right,
because
it
was
really
built
as
a
campus,
as
opposed
to
being
built
as
a
community,
and
the
new
paradigm
is
community.
So.
G
The
second
question
is
kind
of
elephant
in
a
living
room,
I
mean
a
lot
of
a.
They
spent
a
lot
of
time
talking
about
workforce
development,
education,
they
talked
about
I
mean
we
wouldn't
be
having
this
conversation,
if
it
wasn't
University
of
Oklahoma's
presence
there
to
talk
about
potentially
having
OSU
robotics
programs,
maybe
come
to
the
area
and
I
appreciate
everything
you're
doing
nationally
with
the
headlands.
G
I
mean
how
do
you
convince
developers,
companies
who
understand
how
innovation
districts
work
and
understand
the
need
for
education
funding,
but
then
Oklahoma
leading
the
country
over
the
last
decade
in
cuts
to
education
and
legislators,
like
representative
Britt,
see
making
comments
like
he's
made
in
the
last
two
weeks
and
continuing
to
get
us
national
attention
that
create
headwinds
against
these
kind
of
endeavors?
It's.
O
A
huge
challenge,
but
it
is
what
it
is.
You
know
we
have
to
live
with
what
we
have.
We
continue
to
try
to
work
with
the
legislature
to
change
that,
but
the
other
thing
is:
is
that
states
and
metropolitan
areas
are
two
different
places
and
Oklahoma
City
has
kind
of
taken
the
track
of
not
relying
on
the
state
so
much
for
resources,
but
taking
initiatives
on
its
own
and
doing
things
by
itself,
which
is
more
reflective
of
what's
going
on
nationally.
O
Now,
more
and
more
metropolitan
areas
are
pulling
the
state
instead
of
the
state,
pulling
the
metropolitan
areas
and
I
think
we're
a
great
example
of
that
yeah.
Those
are
tough
headwinds,
but
it
it
is
what
it
is
and
we
have
to
deal
with
it,
and
we
have
to
continue
to
to
use
the
metro
area
in
Oklahoma
City
as
a
model
of
how
you
overcome
those
kind
of
headwinds.
Despite
that,
do.
G
O
When
you
look
at
the
demographics
and
economics
of
the
metro
versus
the
state,
they're
totally
different
income
levels
or
different
education
levels
are
different:
the
demographics,
the
population,
the
trends-
are
all
extremely
different,
so
selling
the
metro
is
a
whole
lot
easier
than
selling
the
state.
Okay,
the.
G
N
G
I
mean
that
would
seem
to
be
a
natural
symbiotic
relationship
that
you'd
have
to
have
the
oil
and
gas
companies,
but
not.
There
are
certain
oil
and
gas
companies
that
are
diversifying
into
renewables.
There
are
some
oil
and
gas
companies
that
are
resisting
change,
I
mean:
do
you
see
a
place
for
renewable
industry,
Newell
energy
industries
at
the
table
in
an
innovation
district,
like
this
sure.
O
I
mean
there's
nothing
off
the
table.
There's
opportunities
everywhere,
I
mean
I.
Think
that's
why
the
Brookings
Institute
has
said
we
could
be
a
global
model
on
a
collaboration
between
energy
and
bioscience,
something
that's
not
being
done
anywhere
and
that
the
potential
commercialization
out
of
that
and
the
ideas
that
might
come
out
of
that
would
be
revolutionary
in
many
many
different
areas.
So
it's
kind
of
hard
to
predict.
What
are
those
going
to
be?
O
We
don't
know
until
these
companies
start
collaborating
because
they've
been
operating
in
silos
in
their
history
and
once
they
break
out
of
those
where
you
start
collaborating
not
only
with
your
partners
but
with
your
competitors.
You
begin
finding
some
new
discoveries
and
that's
the
hope
that
the
sky's
the
limit
right,
thank
you,
yeah
Jim,
Oh,.
P
Counsel,
if
I
go
back
to
address
your
first
question
but
I
think
there's
a
lot
of
things
on
both
the
geo
bond
issue
in
the
sales-tax
proposition
that
address
these
specific
concerns.
No,
we
don't
have
money
in
there
to
cap
235
at
this
point
in
time,
but
we
clearly
have
money
in
there
for
sidewalks,
for
bike
lanes
for
streetscapes
to
be
included
for
screen
improvements
to
be
done
as
a
part
of
it
difficult
to
be
used
or
this
area.
P
Secondly,
in
the
Geo
bonds,
we
also
have
proposed
a
goal
delegation
hard
which
could
be
used
for
job
creation
like
we
use
in
the
past
or
bring
jobs
into
the
area.
Secondly,
a
portion
of
that
will
be
set
aside
for
portable
housing
during
housing
that
to
go
in
there
to
bring
up
a
portion
of
that
area.
And
thirdly,
last
December
we
reformatted
tax
increment
financing
districts
in
8
area.
P
H
G
P
G
I
mean
this:
the
study
is
very
clear.
That
placemaking
is
the
key.
That's
the
power
of
cities
is
the
chance
encounter,
so
you
create
places
for
people
to
congregate
at
lunch
and
then
the
next
Alexis
might
come
out
of
some
conversation,
so
I
mean
that
placemaking
is
there?
Is
the
planning
department
working
on
they.
A
Are
on
the
sales
tax
portion
keep
in
mind,
we'll
have
a
citizen,
Oversight
Committee,
but
that
will
certainly
be
one
of
the
opportunities
that
they'll
have
to
continue
to
look
at
where
this
can
be
a
catalyst
we
always
want.
You
know
investments
to
be
a
catalyst,
and
this
is
one
of
the
great
opportunities
we
have
right
and
don't
forget
the
zoning
aspect.
Some
of
the
zoning
is
going
to
need
to
be
changed
in
this
area
and
so
we're
going
to
play
a
role
in
that
too.
Thank
you.
I
One
more
thing,
mr.
mayor.
Mr.
president:
how
involved
has
the
state
of
Oklahoma
being
with
the
innovation
district
and
I
bring
it
up
because,
as
we
talked
about,
maybe
the
cap
for
235
I
think
the
state
could
play
a
very
important
role
in
the
cap.
I,
don't
believe
that
there
should
be
solely
the
city
of
Oklahoma
City's
responsibility
to
do
the
cap
I
think
there
are
several
state
entities,
such
as
the
Oklahoma
and
Land
Commission,
whose
job
is
to
generate
revenue
for
the
state.
Maybe
they
can
come
in
and
assist
with
the
cap.
I
O
That's
a
broad
question:
the
Department
of
Commerce
is
actually
in
the
innovation
district,
the
Oklahoma
Department
of
Commerce,
so
they
have
been
engaged
in
it.
But
we've
also
reached
out
to
the
Department
of
Transportation
Mike
Patterson
Gary
Ridley.
They
have
been
in
a
number
of
our
work
sessions
and
seminars.
O
They
have
been
very
receptive
to
doing
that
and
to
playing
whatever
role
they
could
and
until
we
get
sort
of
more
specific
thoughts
and
ideas
of
exactly
what
do
we
want
to
do,
because
you
can
do
anything
from
just
widening
existing
structures
to
building
pedestrian
crossings,
to
actually
building
additional
vehicle
crossings
to
actually
capping.
So
there's
just
multiple
things
that
you
can
do
plussing
didn't
stages,
so
there's
not
been
any
kind
of
request
yet
for
anything
specific
but
Department
of
Transportation,
not
necessarily
Land
Commission.
P
Council,
my
understanding
with
with
the
estate
land
commissioners
they're
trying
to
take
some
of
their
funds
and
invest
it
in
areas
where
they
get
a
direct
return
to
get
that
back
into
education
to
grow,
that
that's
one
for
education.
Capping,
235,
isn't
a
project
that
can
have
indirect
returns
and
do
things
I'm,
not
sure
that
that
investment
would
be
a
direct
return
and
well.
I
P
P
A
All
right,
we
have
several
people
here
today
to
talk
about,
read
OKC
I'm,
going
to
ask
everyone
here.
That's
involved
in
this
effort
is
the
superintendent
Aurora
law
here
and
Theresa
Rose
crook
and
Mary
Malone
with
the
Public
Schools
Foundation,
and
we're
going
to
hear
all
about
opportunities
to
keep
our
young
people
reading
during
the
summer.
Q
Absolutely
and
hopefully
grown-ups
as
well
good
morning,
my
name
is
Theresa,
Rhodes,
crook
and
bully
you
all
are
either
aware
of
or
recalled,
and
the
Oklahoma
City
Schools
compact,
that
is
a
group.
That's
made
up
of
the
city
of
Oklahoma
City,
so
you,
the
Oklahoma
City
Chamber,
United,
Way
of
Central
Oklahoma,
the
Oklahoma
City,
Public,
Schools,
Foundation
and,
of
course,
Oklahoma
City,
Public
Schools.
Q
These
five
entities
came
together
to
create
an
entity
called
Oklahoma
City
Schools
compact,
with
the
focus
in
the
mission
being
to
number
one
primarily
find
ways
to
create
new
supports
or
additional
supports
for
Oklahoma
City
Public
Schools
by
essentially
creating
community
ownership
of
our
schools
and
the
outcomes.
You
know
we
I
think
most
of
us
recognize
that
we
ask
our
public
schools
to
do
a
whole
lot
of
things.
We
ask
them
to
feed
our
kids.
Q
So
the
compact
essentially
was
an
idea
of
pulling
together
what
I
call
the
rolodexes
of
all
of
these
five
entities,
the
resources
that
those
entities
have
and
finding
ways
to
support,
Oklahoma
City
public
schools
and
what
they
are
trying
to
do
so
the
set
up
is
we
have
this
board?
There
are
two
representatives
from
each
of
those
five
entities.
We
working
with
the
school
district
identify
what
their
greatest
need
is,
what
they
asked
us
to
help
them
with,
and
then
we
will
set
up
a
task
force.
Q
Well,
we
will
together
experts,
expertise,
resources
to
execute
on
that
issue.
The
first
task
force
that
the
district
asked
us
to
put
together
was
literacy,
focusing
on
the
lack
of
reading
the
reading
gap,
if
you
we'll
during
the
summer,
but
it's
not
just
going
to
end
in
the
summer.
This
is
a
reading
initiative
that
will
continue
on.
R
Thank
You
mayor
you're,
a
very
good
reader.
Last
night
we
had.
We
had
the
mayor,
come
to
our
launch
event
last
night,
that
included
20
of
our
students
from
Oklahoma
City
Public
Schools,
who
also
spend
their
afternoons
at
the
Boys
and
Girls
Club,
so
that
we
bust
them
over.
The
Thunder
bus
was
there
and
provided
each
of
those
children
with
a
couple
of
books
and
Mayor
Cornett
read
a
really
great
book
about
a
pigeon
needing
a
bath
and,
and
it
was
a
hit,
it
really
was.
R
But
I'm
happy
to
be
with
you
today
to
share
a
little
bit
more
about
what
we
really
call
a
movement
towards
creating
a
culture
and
a
love
of
reading
for
our
entire
community
and
we're
starting
with
Oklahoma
City
public
schools.
Children
really
zeroing
in
on
pre-k,
through
sixth
graders,
and
what
what
our
task
force
has
come
together
to
talk
about
our
three
primary
issues.
When
is
access?
R
We
need
to
make
sure
that
these
kids
have
access
to
reading
materials
in
the
summertime
and
also
when
they're
out
of
school
any
time,
and
we
want
to
focus
on
community
outreach.
We
want
as
many
community
partners
as
we
possibly
can
get
to
be
involved
in
promoting
this
culture
of
reading
and
we
want
visibility,
of
course.
So
we
have
a
PR
and
marketing
committee.
We
have
a
Community
Outreach
Committee
and
we
have
an
access
committee
made
up
of
about
50
community
volunteers
who
are
from
all
parts
of
the
city.
R
We
have
business
leaders,
we
have
community
leaders,
we
have
faith-based
leaders,
all
all
parts
of
the
city
are
involved
in
making
this
work,
and
it
really
is
a
collective
impact
model
where
we're
all
working
together
focused
on
a
singular
issue
of
making
sure
our
kids
are
reading.
So
last
night
was
the
launch
of
read
OKC.
In
addition,
it
was
the
launch
of
our
summer
reading
program,
which
is
called
get
in
the
game
and
we've
pulled
in
partnerships
with
all
of
our
professional
teams,
the
Thunder,
the
energy
and
the
Dodgers.
R
We
had
mascots
it
all
their
glory
their
last
night
to
help
us
promote
this
to
our
kids,
because
we
know
how
much
our
kids
identify
with
these
professional
sports
teams.
So
we
launched
get
in
the
game,
which
is
a
summer
reading
program,
giving
our
kids
a
goal
of
reading
1,200
minutes
this
summer.
That
equates
to
20
minutes
per
day.
R
D
You
Mary
thanks
Mary.
Well,
yes,
yesterday
was
super
fun
when
we
were
there
with
the
kids
talking
to
them
about
all
the
options,
we're
getting
and
all
the
ways
we're
trying
to
encourage
them
to
read.
As
Mary
mentioned,
they
have
three
different
things.
One
is
we've.
We
they're
able
to
use
their
student
ID
to
check
out
books
library,
my
on
is
essentially
a
Netflix
for
books
where
it
every
kid's
got
an
accountant,
okay,
CPS,
and
so
it
says.
D
Oh,
if
you
like
this
book
about
squirrels,
you
might
also
like
these
books
about
all
other
animals
or
or
ghosts
or
whatever,
and
so
it's
really
fun
we're
trying
to
get
every
kid
hooked
into
reading
and
the
reason
we're
trying
to
do.
This
is
because,
basically,
in
the
summer
time,
as
you
know,
when
kids
go
off
on
vacation,
they
start
to
forget
things
that
they
learned
at
the
end
of
the
school
year
and
what
ends
up
happening.
D
That's
called
the
Summer
Slide
and
what
ends
up
happening
is
when
the
kids
come
back
to
school
in
the
fall,
the
teachers
have
to
start
to
review
the
stuff
that
they've
probably
forgotten.
What
we're
hoping
is
that
we
can
eliminate
the
Summer
Slide
that
the
kids
can
keep
their
brains
active.
They
can
keep
learning
over
the
summer
so
that
there
are
that
much
further
when
they
start
back
at
this
at
the
start
of
the
next
school
year.
And
so
what
we've
done
is
we've
told
kids,
you
have
all
kinds
of
different
ways
to
read.
D
We
gave
out
free
books
yesterday
they
get
free
books
from
the
Thunder
and
scholastic.
They
all
have
my
on.
They
can
use
their
library
cards
and
if
they
read
for
20
minutes
a
day,
we're
asking
them
to
track
how
much
they've
read
over
the
summer
turn
in
their
reading
log
sheets
at
the
end
of
the
summer,
so
they
can
qualify
for
prizes
and
we'll
do
big
celebrations
and
more
than
just
kids,
we're
actually
trying
to
encourage
everyone
to
become
reader.
D
A
It's
the
culture
of
Education
that
we're
trying
to
establish
and
improve
upon
every
community
has
a
list
of
priorities
and
in
their
culture,
and
education
is
just
not
high
enough
in
the
state
of
Oklahoma
and
in
Oklahoma
City,
and
by
continuing
to
talk
about
how
our
young
people
need
to
read.
20
minutes
a
day
as
Aurora
said,
you'll
get
adults.
Reading
20
minutes
a
day,
you'll
get
there
younger
brothers
and
sisters
engaged
in
reading.
A
Even
if
they're,
just
looking
at
the
pictures,
they're
going
to
be
hearing
things
and
it's
it's
about
the
culture
of
Oklahoma,
City
and
and
making
learning
and
making
reading
a
larger
part
of
our
culture.
So
I
want
to
really
show
my
appreciation
for
this
task
for
taking
it
on
and
I
know
it's
going
to
be
successful
and
the
council
and
I
we
pledged
it
to
do
our
part.
Thank
you
that
Thanks
and
as
if
we
plan
this,
we
have
some
third
graders
from
st.
John's
Episcopal
School
in
the
back,
mrs.
Elmer,
the
teacher.
A
Would
you
all
please
stand
so
we
can
get
a
good
look
at
you.
Thank
you
all
for
coming
down
today
and
I
hope
you
all
were
paying
attention
and
plan
to
read
at
least
20
minutes
a
day
and
be
sure
and
gather
your
your
your
younger
brothers
and
sisters
and
your
dogs
and
cats
around
whenever
you're
going
to
read
this
summer
and
then
log
it
down.
A
So
you
can
keep
track
of
how
much
reading
you
did
this
summer
and
we're
thrilled
that
you
came
down
to
what
City
Council
meeting
this
morning
to
you
obviously
have
some
some
parents
and
teachers
in
your
lives
that
care
a
great
deal.
Thank
you.

Is

Alright?
Well,
this
is
something
they've
done
in
the
past
and
I've
already
seen.
A

of
them
seem
to
pop

here.
All
right.
We're
voting
on
item
6b
cast
your
votes.
It
passes
unanimously.
A
T
T
Year
I
think
we'll
have
about
1200.
We
see
about
a
25%
increase
from
year
to
year,
and
with
this
year
we
we
have
our
second
annual
it'll,
be
a
fondo
that
will
be
on
Saturday,
so
that'll
bring
in
writers
of
all
abilities,
not
just
your
racers,
but
it's
offers
three
distances.
So
we'll
probably
see
another
500
participants
from
that,
and
then
we've
partnered
with
red
coyote
to
have
a
basically
a
one-mile
sprint
on
Saturday,
also
that
that
should
be
pretty
exciting.
T
A
C
U
Will
be
our
17th
year
to
participate
and
we
will
have
approximately
100
artists
and
vendors
this
year,
which
is
more
than
we've
ever
had
before.
So
we're
pretty
proud
of
our
growth
pattern
there
we
will
have
all
types
of
artists
and
vendors
from
several
different
states,
a
wide
variety
of
artists
and
vendors
that
we
think
are
going
to
really
put
on
really
not
as
special
well.
A
We
appreciate
you
doing
this
for
us
there
a
motion.
We
already
have
one
going
all
right.
Let's
vote
on
item
6d.
It
passes
unanimously
thanks
and
good
luck
and

6C
is
a
request
from
the
Paseo

to
hold

the
Paseo

and
we're
bringing

of
the
city.
We
have
just
under
a
hundred
artists,
nationally
juried
artists
from
all
over
the
country.
We
have
probably
46
different
bands
that
have
supported
us
by
giving
their
music
abilities
and
showing
the
location.
Today
we
will
have
also
a
free
parking
and
a
free

V
A
A
K
A
H
Find
it
here
this
is
a
resolution
that
authorizes
a
change
in
our
continuum
of
care,
operating
agreement
with
Mental
Health
Association
of
Oklahoma
and
Jared's
here,
I
think
if
anybody
has
any
questions,
but
this
contract
had
been
held
by
City
rescue
mission
and
they
notified
us
this,
they
wanted
to
no
longer
wanted
to
manage
the
contract
and
I'm
so
happy
to
say
that
Mental
Health
Association
has
agreed
to
step
in
and
take
over
the
rest
of
the
contract
and
I.
Think
we'll
be
seeing
a
lot
more
of
this.
H
You
know
for
those
that
aren't
aware,
we
used
to
have
two
separate
mental
health
associations,
one
in
Oklahoma
City
and
one
in
Tulsa
that
entity
has
merged
into
one
and
the
TOFA
organization
is
very,
very
active
and
it's
been
really
successful
in
providing
transitional
housing,
they
own
a
number
of
apartment
buildings.
They
offer
both
affordable
and
market
rate
housing
in
the
same
complexes
and
they're
working
to
bring
that
concept
to
Oklahoma
City,
and
there
was
a
recent
capital
campaign
held
by
Mental,
Health
Association
and
of
15
million
dollars
they
raised.
H
Two
of
it
was
for
Oklahoma
City,
specifically
they've,
already
acquired
two
properties
that
they're
beginning
to
refurbish
and
so
I
think
we'll
see
mental
health
become
an
increasingly
significant
partner
with
us
in
providing
housing,
which
is
an
area
in
which
we're
very
lacking,
and
our
social
services
committee
certainly
aware
that
getting
people
into
housing
is
one
of
the
most
important
bridges
that
we
can
make.
It's
an
area
that
we
can't
fund
very
well,
and
so
this
is
a
great
partnership
for
us
to
have
and
I
wanted
to
recognize
that
agreed.
H
If
I
could
anise
Azalea
a
project,
it's
a
2007
bond
issue
project
that
has
fine.
We
come
come
to
happen,
it's
a
small
section
of
Western
between
18th
and
23rd
Street,
and
it
involves
some
street
resurfacing
and
streetscape
work
landscaping
in
coordination
with
some
of
the
property
owners.
It's
another
another
one
of
these
public-private
partnerships
where
our
property
owners,
along
that
stretch,
have
agreed
to
step
in
and
help
maintain
the
landscaping.
W
Uh-Huh,
oh
yeah,
what
a
ae
is
a
resolution
where
we're
allocating
the
ninety
million
dollars
of
our
Geo
bond
sale
for
the
2017
I
just
wanted
to
point
out
that
sixty
six
point,
four
million
of
that
is
going
to
streets
and
so
just
highlighting
the
fact
that,
even
though
it
seems
like
we
aren't
prioritizing
streets
and
spending
money
on
other
stuff,
at
least
to
some
some
of
our
constituents,
we
really
are
spending
a
lot
of
money
on
streets
as
it
is.
You
know
so
just
want
to
point.
C
A
A
All
right,
we
have
a
motion
in
a
second
cast,
your
votes.
It

unanimously.

H
H
They
called
911
firefighters
from
station
19
showed
up
in
a
matter
of
minutes,
and
it
turned
out
that
it
was
only
that
the
battery
alarm
was
dead
in
there
fire
detector,
but
the
firefighters
were
placed
with
smoke
alarms
in
their
house,
and
he
just
wanted
us
to
say
thank
you
so
much
for
the
fire
department
for
being
so
concerned
even
over
an
issue
that
wasn't
as
dramatic
as
it
might
have
been.
So
I
wanted
to
extend
my
thanks.
All.
M
Thank
you.
Your
honor
maze
the
month
to
recognize
law
enforcement
in
the
United,
States
and
chief
city
held
his
annual
prayer
breakfast
this
morning,
and
he
mentioned
his
gratitude
for
the
community's
support,
or
not
only
our
Oklahoma
City
Police
Department,
but
the
county
and
state
law
enforcement
officers.
I
just
wanted
to
share
those
comments
with
everyone
plus
Friday
I
believe,
is
the
annual
memorial
service
to
be
held
at
police
headquarters.
Thank
you
all
right.
Thanks,
David.
X
Wanted
to
mention
Thursday
evening
I
the
opportunity
or
really
the
honor,
to
attend
the
police.
Cadet
ball,
which
is
a
great
program.
I
just
was
really
so
honored.
Inspired
to
see
these
kids
that
it's
it's
just
for
inner-city
youth,
but
they're
aspiring
to
become
police
officers
one
day
and
when
you
see
the
program,
see
what
they're
going
through.
It's
really
a
great
thing,
so
I
just
wanted
to
say.
Thank
you
all
right,
Larry,
like.
Y
Your
honor
had
the
privilege,
with
my
wife
and
some
of
the
other
council
people
to
attend
the
police
awards
banquet
last
week,
a
very
uplifting
and
very
deserving
the
awards
to
our
police
officers.
We
owe
a
tremendous
token
of
gratitude
to
our
police
officers
the
way
they
put
their
lives
on
the
line.
Thank
you,
your
honor
Det,
my.
G
I
commissioned
a
poll
and
asked
a
lot
of
questions
that
we
talked
about
in
the
workshop
and
just
that
I
think
would
have
relevance.
I
love
to
present
that
to
the
council,
not
I
mean
some
of
its
surprising
some
of
its
not
some
of
it.
I
was
hoping
to
see
some
of
it.
I
wasn't
but
I'd
like
to
just
present
all
of
it
to
the
council.
W
Yeah
I
have
a
I,
think
I'm
sure
you
guys
have
seen
the
the
Amazon
warehouse.
That's
going
up
on
Southwest,
fifteenth
and
Council
I
and
I
just
wanted
to
use
that
kind
of
as
a
platform
to
illustrate
what
how
a
geo
bond
projects
can
can
have
an
economic
development
impact
on
an
area
I've
been
driving
a
South
Council
nearly
every
single
day
for
12
years
and
all
of
a
sudden
after
we
repaved
10th
Street
for
a
council
from
I-40
all
the
way
down
to
Southwest
44th.
W
We
improved
the
intersection
at
Southwest,
15th
and
Council,
where
which
is
the
turn
into
the
end
to
the
landfill?
All
of
a
sudden
stuff
starts
happening
down
there
and
I
can't
think
that
that's
just
a
coincidence,
and
so
these
Street
repaving
xand
these
intersection
improvements
and
and
all
these
things
that
go
into
it
is
a
real
economic
development
tool
and
I.
Don't
want
us
to
just
always
be
thinking
about.
W
Ok,
we
need
to
just
repay
the
street
because
it's
tearing
up
cars
and
that
sort
of
stuff
I
mean
it
really
does
have
a
huge
economic
development
aspect,
because
that
area
is
one
of
the
best
industrial
areas
in
the
entire
city
and
so
really
to
me.
There
was
no
reason
for
those
those
areas
where,
because
there's
actually
another
humungous
a
warehouse
being
put
in
on
the
southside
of
south
of
15,
which
I
don't
even
know
what
it
is.
W
E
A
You're
right
thanks
for
pointing
that
out,
item
11
a
also
includes
a
travel
expenses
for
Larry
and
John
to
attend
the
National
League
of
Cities
summer
board
leadership.
Meeting
in
Cleveland
next
month.
Look
for
a
motion.
There
cast
your
votes
passage
anonymously.
Thank
you
both
for
attending.
We
appreciate
it
and
item
11
B
has
been
submitted
by
councilman,
Pettis
and
Dan
barometz
also
been
involved.
You
don't
have
Dan
make
a
presentation
on
it.
Jump
yes,.
I
Sir
I
have
to
receive
a
number
of
complaints
from
nearby
residents
in
regards
to
the
concerts
happening
during
the
weekday.
Are
the
north,
the
the
amount
of
noise
that
the
concerts
have
created
in
the
neighborhoods
and
I
had
a
chance
to
meet
with
legal
staff
and
also
the
neighbors
and
other
people,
and
so
what
you
see
is
the
recommendation
from
everyone
who
is
involved.
I
Z
Yes,
the
ordinance
would
amend
the
design
statement
for
the
lost
legs.
Adventure
district
to
limit
into
three
concerts
per
year
to
be
held
on
Friday,
Saturday
or
holiday
evenings
has
to
be
over
by
11
o'clock.
This
need
to
be
referred
to
the
Planning
Commission
for
their
reviewing
and
recommendation.
Okay.
I
Little
yes
to
be
just
west
of
track
three
and
you
have
a
neighborhood,
that's
been
in
existence
since
the
early
1900s
and-
and
they
have
been
complaining
about
the
the
concerts
for
some
quite
time
now
so
having
this
going
at
revisiting
the
amount
of
concerts
I
think
is
be
great
for
everyone
involved
to
have
those
discussions.
All.
G
I
It's
not
the
same
as
the
zoo
amphitheater.
We
saw
that
we
need
to
revisit
how
we
do
the
zoo,
amphitheater
I,
live
within
300
feet
of
the
zoo
is
amphitheater
and
every
time
there
is
a
concert,
I
hear
it
every
single
day,
I
mean
every
time
there
is
a
concert.
But,
however,
in
this
case
you
have
a
a
neighborhood
that
was
in
existence
first
and
all
of
a
sudden.
I
We
they
are
experiencing
these
loud
concerts
and
it's
not
fair
to
the
neighborhood
to
hear
concerts
up
until
one
or
two
o'clock
in
the
morning
is
not
fair
to
the
neighborhood.
To
hear
concert
during
the
weekday
I
I've
received
a
lot
of
complaints,
I've
driven
out
there
to
here
on
the
the
to
hear
the
concerts
is
actually
see
what's
been
happening
and
in
the
neighborhood
they
have
a
right
to
be
concerned
with
these
vikas
parts.
So.
G
I
Thank
you
certain
areas.
It
has
to
be
done
differently
because
we
have
to
also
look
at
the
type
of
in
certain
areas
type
of
homes
on
their
nearby.
These
concert
venues
of
the
homes-
that's
just
west
of
this
particular
site-
were
built
in
the
early
1900s
versus
were
the
zoo
amphitheater.
Our
use
of
the
homes
were
built
in
some
of
them,
the
late
1960,
70s,
80s
and
90s,
in
some
cases
the
homes
west
of
this
particular
site
on
the
installation.
It's
not
the
watch.
I
My
words,
the
installation
is
not
like
it
is
over
by
the
zoo,
zoo
and
potato
so
to
have
a
citywide
policy.
I
think
it
would
be
a
little
bit
difficult
to
some
degree
come,
but
I
think
we
have
to
deal
with
this
case.
By
case,
like
I,
said:
I
live
by
the
zoo
in
potato
and
every
time
there's
a
concert,
I
hear
it.
I
A
A
L
I
am
deeply
disappointed
with
myself,
I'm
often
late
here,
but
we're
gonna
change
that
because
I've
been
missing
a
whole
lot
of
great
Oh
2990
13th
Street.
A
little
concern
on
the
summit
missing
out
a
hole
on
a
whole
life.
You've
been
coming
to
me,
man,
you
really
later
majority
the
good
things
happen
between
8:30
and
9:00
between
the
town.
I
said
well,
I'm,
often
out
of
town,
so
they
can't
kind
of
switch.
My
schedule
around
so
I
come
and
have
a
little
bit
more
detail
about.
L
What's
really
going
on
around
these
I
guess,
I'll
say:
Forrest,
okay,
benign,
let
me
say
mr.
Parris:
we
need
to
sit
on
I,
don't
know
simply
because
I
have
a
lawsuit
file
on
you.
My
friend
I
have
a
right
to
visit
by
City
Council,
you
don't
belong.
You
don't
run
anything
okay,
you
simply
are
here
at
least
I
thought
you
were
to
represent
the
people
right
on
a
North,
East
Side
Ward
7
I
mean.
L
Can
anybody
explain
it
to
me
why
I
was
not
having
that
opportunity
when
this
man
is
representing
the
war
that
I
live
in
2,900
North,
East,
18th,
Street
that
this
man
cannot
allow
me
to
visit
his
office
now
I'm
often
told
if
it's
too
hot
get
out
of
the
kitchen?
Okay,
because
I
am
a
citizen.
If
there
were
not
saw
when
I'd
be
standing
before
you
today,
I
would
not
be
I'm.
Definitely
not
a
ghost.
L
I
definitely
am
highly
pro-family
intelligence,
one
who
just
doesn't
take
macaroni
of
foolishness,
which
this
man
obviously
knows
about
enough
I'm.
Sure
plenty
of
you
do
too,
but
I'm
just
saying,
sir,
for
the
council
members
and
those
who
may
be
listening
up
on
this
beautiful
occasion,
I'd
like
to
know
why
I
as
a
citizen
as
a
taxpayer
as
a
person,
a
human
being,
cannot
visit
that
person
who's
here
today,
representing
Ward
7.
L
This
is
a
force,
a
total
travesty
of
justice,
but
Yugi,
but
as
simple
as
even
assume
even
reading,
hopefully
that
you
are
counselor
for
Ward
7
I'm,
deeply
disappointed
in
your
actions
and
behavior,
sir,
and
with
that
I
will
again
address
this
council
member
and
then
Lynn.
Let
you
all
know
again
that
I
would
like
to
meet
with
this
man
and
I'm
sure
I.
L
Yeah
every
dollar
I
spend
I'll
cook
y'all
candy
bar
when
they
say
Michael,
Washington,
69
cents,
plus
eight,
that
money
not
necessary
that
candy
bar
is
going
into
your
pockets,
but
that's
part
of
the
whole
equation
and
I
like
for
this
citizens
to
be
heard
not
just
be
senator.
That's
all
well
he's
gone
now.
I,
like
this,
take
a
profound
effect
on
the
people
in
citizens
who
have
a
right
to
be
heard
and
deserve
to
have
their
statements.
Not
only
just
heard,
but
actually
acted
upon,
I
disregarded
excluding
them
out
the
american
community.
L
L
Just
like
you
did
do
streets,
which
you
were
not
old
enough.
Quite
naturally,
someone
will
20-some
years
old
and
you
so
you
weren't
there
around
that
time
when
all
levels
are
coming
into
fruition,
but
we
need
to
city
