Description
Oklahoma City City Council for Tuesday, October 10, 2017.
A
B
Please
bow
your
heads
Heavenly
Father.
We
thank
you
for
this
day,
this
opportunity
that
we
have
to
come
together
and
transact
business
on
behalf
of
our
amazing
City
Lord.
We
thank
you
for
each
one
of
these
council
representatives
that
have
such
a
commitment
and
dedication
to
their
wards
and
the
people
in
their
wards.
Lord.
We
pray
that
you
would
just
give
guidance
and
instruction
and
clarity
and
give
them
great
blessing
today,
Lord
as
they
act
upon
the
needs
of
this
city.
We'll
give
you
the
praise
for
it
and
she's
the
same
amen.
C
A
A
Let's
have
our
group
from
the
bricktown
brewery
come
up
in
enfold.
I
want
to
take
you
back
to
1992
Bricktown
had
a
restaurant,
a
karaoke
bar
and
some
enterprising
business
people
said,
let's,
let's
open
a
bricktown
brewery
and
that
was
Brooke
Townsend
entire
gamut
of
entertainment
and
offerings
to
come
down
here.
Of
course,
we
know
thou
10
years
later,
the
canal
would
open.
Six
years
later,
the
ballpark
would
open,
and
now
six
million
people
a
year
visit
our
entertainment
district.
But
at
this
time
it
was
little
more
than
an
abandoned
warehouse
district.
D
Cessful
entertainment,
district
razz
burton
brewery
has
employed
more
than
10,000
people
over
the
past
25
years
and
currently
employs
over
800
company-wide
bricktown
brewery
presently
has
over
250
employees
and
therefore
restaurants
in
the
greater
Oklahoma
City
area,
whereas
bricked
Embry
has
served
over
7
million
customers
over
the
past
25
years
now.
Therefore,
Mick
Cornett,
the
mayor
of
the
city
of
Oklahoma
City,
does
hereby
commend
and
congratulate
brick.
Temporary
on
the
occasion
of
their
25th
anniversary,
let's.
E
You
there's
several
people
that
should
be
thanked
and
we
should
start
with
the
McClain
family
that
many
of
you
may
know
who
had
the
vision
to
invest
in
Bricktown
very
early,
and
they
were
instrumental
in
bringing
craft
beer
to
to
the
state
of
Oklahoma.
With
the
opening
of
bricktown
brewery
we
have
as
representing
the
current
ownership
group,
we
have
Jim
Cowen,
who
was
the
original
general
manager
and
purchased
the
business
from
the
McLane's,
and
we
have
Charles
Stout,
who
is
a
newcomer.
E
He
only
arrived
about
a
month
after
opening
and
in
1992
I'm,
the
real
carpetbagger
here,
but
I've
had
the
most
fun
I've
ever
had
in
a
35
year,
restaurant
career
right
here
in
Oklahoma
City
in
Bricktown,
with
Charles
and
the
folks,
as
we've
grown
this
from
one
restaurant
to
12
and
intentions.
Our
intention
is
to
double
that
group
in
the
next
five
years.
E
D
The
white
cane
is
used
by
hundreds
of
oklahoma
city
residents,
who
are
legally
blind
in
order
to
navigate
our
city
and
access
its
public
places,
schools
and
businesses.
We're
asked
with
proper
training
people
using
the
white
cane
can
enjoy
greater
mobility
and
safety
by
determining
the
location
of
curb
steps,
uneven
pavement
and
other
physical
obstacles
in
their
path,
whereas
the
white
cane
has
opened
the
doors
of
opportunity
to
thousands
of
blind
Oklahomans
by
enabling
them
to
travel
freely
and
independently
in
their
community.
D
The
United
States
Congress
by
joint
resolution
approved
October
6
1964
has
designated
October
15th
of
each
year
as
white
cane
Safety
Day.
Now,
therefore,
Mick
Cornett,
the
mayor
of
the
city
of
Oklahoma
City,
does
hereby
proclaim
October
15
2017
as
why
cane
Safety
Day
in
Oklahoma
City,
and
he
urges
all
citizens
to
observe
this
day
by
recognizing
the
significance
of
the
white
cane
as
a
symbol
of
independent
and
enables
Oklahoma
residents
with
visual
disabilities
to
participate
more
fully
in
the
social
and
economic
life
of
our
state.
Let's.
F
Mr.
mayor
and
city
council
audience
once
again,
it's
a
pleasure
to
be
here
this
year,
the
Heartland
council,
the
blind,
which
is
a
chapter
of
the
Oklahoma
Council
of
the
blind
and
the
division
of
visual
services,
which
is
part
of
the
Department
of
Rehabilitation
Services,
are
partnering
in
an
event
to
commemorate
white
cane
Safety
Day.
We
will
be
walking
at
Penn
Square
on
Saturday
October
14th
from
11
to
2.
We
invite
any
of
you
who
would
like
to
come
out
and
walk
with
us.
F
We've
got
some
other
people
that
will
plan
to
be
there,
representatives
from
the
Veterans
Administration
and
the
Oklahoma
City
West
Side
Lions
Club.
We
have
come
a
long
way.
You
see
us
out
at
the
mall
at
movies
those
sidewalks
yeah,
thank
goodness
for
the
mayor
sidewalks
anyway.
We
are
part
of
your
society,
part
of
our
society,
and
thank
you
for
allowing
us
to
celebrate
with
you
this
historic
landmark
day.
A
D
The
month
of
October
has
been
recognized
as
National
Arts
and
Humanities
Month
by
thousands
of
arts,
humanities
and
cultural
organizations
community
and
states
across
the
country,
whereas
since
our
earliest
days,
Oklahoma
City
is
flourished
because
of
the
creative
spirit
and
vision
of
our
residents.
We
rely
on
the
arts
and
humanities
to
broaden
our
views
and
our
understanding
of
our
nation
in
the
world.
D
To
meet
the
challenges
ahead,
we
must
harness
the
skills
in
on
Genuity
of
our
children
and
grandchildren
and
instill
in
them
the
same
passion
and
persistence
that
has
driven
our
city's
progress
and
innovation,
whereas
this
month
we
pay
tribute
to
the
tremendous
power,
the
arts
and
humanities,
to
bring
us
together
and
expose
us
to
new
ideas.
As
we
carry
forward
this
proud
tradition,
let
us
celebrate
the
ways
our
city's
rich
heritage
has
strengthened
our
state
and
inspired
our
lives.
D
Now,
therefore,
Mick
Cornett,
the
mayor
of
the
city
of
Oklahoma
City,
does
hereby
proclaim
the
month
of
October
as
arts
and
humanities
month
in
Oklahoma
City,
and
he
calls
upon
residents
to
celebrate
the
arts
and
humanities
in
our
city
and
encourage
greater
participation
by
all
citizens
in
taking
action
for
the
arts
and
humanities
in
our
neighborhood
schools
and
all
areas
across
our
great
city.
Let's.
G
You
mayor
and
thank
you
to
the
City
Council
and
the
Arts
Commission
for
making
this
day
possible,
and
this
proclamation
is
so
good.
It
helps
us
as
organizations
here
that
represent
the
arts
and
humanities
in
the
city
of
Oklahoma
City.
To
do
our
work,
which
is
basically
to
provide
those
outlets
and
venues
for
all
of
us
to
discover
who
we
are.
As
human
beings.
We
often
participate
in
arts
and
humanities
activities.
G
We
don't
even
know
it
whether
you're
reading
a
book
or
going
to
a
book
discussion
group,
perhaps
a
museum
exhibit
or
even
a
community
conversation
that
is
based
on
that
rich
wisdom
of
the
humanities
disciplines
like
history
and
literature
and
ethics.
That
sort
of
thing
so
keep
in
mind
when
you
are
that
curious,
human
being
learning
about
the
human
experience
you
are
participating
in
the
arts
and
humanities.
H
Hello
I
just
like
to
reiterate
Ann's
comments.
Thank
you
mayor.
Thank
you,
City
Council,
for
your
consistent
and
strong
embrace
and
leader
and
support
of
the
Arts.
We
know
that
the
arts
are
vital
to
the
education
of
our
children,
to
the
economic
and
community
development
of
our
cities,
and
we
just
saw
that
Oklahomans
for
the
Arts
released
a
economic
impact
study
showing
that
the
arts
and
the
arts
and
cultural
sector
impact
the
state
of
Oklahoma,
with
an
more
than
eight
hundred
and
seventy
two
million
dollar
impact.
A
A
I
Thank
you,
mayor,
Debbie,
I'm,
I'm.
Of
course
the
the
newest
one
here,
but
I
can
tell
you
I,
just
I
can't
imagine
trying
to
come
in
here
and
and
be
able
to
hit
the
ground
running
without
your
support,
and
you
know
that
I
always
tell
everyone
I'm
like
the
night
of
the
election,
we
might
have
celebrated
a
little
bit
stayed
up
kind
of
late
and
you
know
I
was
getting
this
phone
call
at
like
7:30
the
next
morning.
I
J
K
L
M
Of
the
reasons
why
I
am
no
offense
to
my
colleagues,
one
of
the
best
City
Council
folks
here
is
because
of
the
hard
work
of
mr.
Debbie
Martin
Todd.
You
talk
about
receiving
at
7:30
morning
college
the
day
after
the
election,
I
think
Debbie
called
me
at
6
o'clock
and
told
me
that
I
had
a
7
o'clock
meeting.
So
I
was
definitely
down
here
by
7:00
Debbie
I
just
want
to
say,
I
appreciate
all
the
hard
work
you
have
given
to
the
city.
M
N
Think
we
referenced
this,
but
I
want
to
emphasize
that
Debbie's
here
every
morning
between
5:00
and
5:30
a.m.
this
morning,
I
missed
last
council
meeting
and
and
and
I
came
in
early,
so
I
could
kind
of
get
caught
up
on
what
I'd,
missed
and
I
got
here
about.
5:45
6
o'clock
and
I
beat
her
here
for
the
first
time
in
my
life
and
what
scared
me
to
death
was
I
thought.
Oh
no
she's,
not
gonna,
show
up
today
so
you're.
Here
today
we
are
so
proud
of
you.
N
O
O
That's
had
an
an
where
there
knows
how
much
she
cares
and
about
what
she
does,
but
how
much
she
cares
about
you
and
your
family
and
what's
going
on
in
your
world,
whether
it's
positive
or
whether
it's
challenging
from
time
to
time,
Debbie
and
I
were
friends
before
I
decided
to
get
on
the
council
and
it
came
from
a
kind
of
a
cranky
circumstance
and
we
found
ourselves
running
into
one
another.
All
the
time
shopping
at
some
of
our
favorite
little
hideaways,
that
other
people
didn't
know
about,
and
there
would
be
Debbie.
O
So
it's
important
for
you
all
to
know
that
other
than
the
mayor,
the
very
first
person
I
called
when
I
was
considering
filling
and
Sai
maxi
was
Debbie
to
make
sure
a
couple
of
things
that
she
thought
it
was
a
good
idea
and
that
she
would
still
be
here
to
help
me
and
she's
here
and
she's
helped
me
tremendously
and
become
one
of
my
dearest
friends,
and
you
also
may
notice
they're
only
two
of
us
here
in
skirts.
We
have
to
have
a
little.
O
P
For
those
who
may
not
know
debbie
is
the
chief
of
staff,
and
so
in
that
role
she
works
with
each
member
of
the
Council,
but
she's
also
assigned,
as
John
mentioned,
to
a
few
of
us
on
the
City
Council
as
our
specific
assistant,
and
she
does
a
tremendous
job.
It's
amazing
how
you
may
not
know
this,
but
we
have
regular
citizens
who
call
on
a
regular
basis
with
issues,
and
she
remembers
each
person's
name
their
where
they
live.
P
A
Occasionally,
being
an
elected
official
at
City
government
can
seem
overwhelming
and
debbie
has
to
make
sure
that
it's
not
and
I,
don't
ever
think,
I've
seen
her,
where
I
thought
she
was
just
overwhelmed
by
a
problem
or
a
situation
or
something
they
were
going
through,
and
it's
largely
because
she's
seen
it
before
about
every
about
everything
that
comes
past.
This
has
been
here
before
and
she
calms
you.
She
puts
you
at
ease
and.
A
Well,
you
know
this
council
is
acknowledged
nationally,
as
perhaps
the
best
City
Council
in
America
and
I
know.
Each
of
us
would
would
want
to
make
sure
that
Debbie
Martin's
role
in
that
success
is
well
chronicled,
so
Debbie.
This
is
your
pen
for
45
years,
but
a
very
small
token
of
our
appreciation
on
behalf
of
the
citizens
of
Oklahoma
City.
Q
I'm
gonna
say
something
I
want
to
thank
this
very
council.
It's
ironic
because
councilman
white
said
to
me
how
many
council
have
you
worked
for
and,
as
I
began
to
look
back
since
1987
when
I
came
to
the
council
office,
probably
about
30
to
35
people
and
I've,
worked
with
several
and
I
really
enjoyed
this
I've
counted
it
truly
an
honor
and
a
blessing,
there's
nothing
better
than
public
service
and
serving
your
community
and
doing
the
things
that
are
important
to
our
community
I've
seen
it
one
was
not
a
great
place
to
live,
and
then.
Q
I
saw
a
vitality
and
an
energy,
and
just
a
love
for
our
city
come
forward
and
people
working
together
that
we
are
inclusionary
and
that
we
care
about
everybody
equally.
But
I
want
to
thank
all
the
department.
Heads
I
could
not
do
my
job
if
it
were
not
for
you
and
I
appreciate
so
much
the
communication
and
the
support
that
I
get
from
each
one
of
you,
because
it's
important
as
to.

today
and
they're
raising
funds

help
with
research
and
also
promoting
awareness
by
wearing
pink
all
month.
So
we
invite
all
of
you
guys
to
come.
They'll
be
great
things
for
survivors.
Caretakers
would
be
a
great
day
on
October
28th.
Thank.
T
A
U
Morning,
everybody
Darren
rands
Lee
one
one,
one:
two
full
Kings
week
drive
Oklahoma
City,
just
north
of
Lake
Hefner,
open
streets,
Oklahoma
City.
This
is
the
fall
event.
We
do
have
a
spring
of
and
the
fall
event.
This
is
the
fall
event.
We
are
looking
at
this
moment
at
October,
the
29th
2017.
Our
event
will
be
one
o'clock
in
the
afternoon
until
5
o'clock
we're
requesting
a
revocable
permit
from
11
o'clock
a.m.
till
7
p.m.
the
roads.
Right
this
moment
will
be
Robinson
Road
from
15
Southwest
15th
to
Southwest
29th.
U
Our
aim
is
to
have
a
health
and
wellness
campaign
which
will
have
between
70
to
75
vendors
that
will
have
very
physical
activities,
Zumba
dancing,
hopscotch
various
elements,
if
you
will
will
also
have
25
food
trucks
that
will
have
an
help
the
option.
Last
year
we
had
15,000
people
this
year.
Of
course,
we're
hoping
to
grow
it
as
much
as
possible
to
share
that
message
of
health
and
wellness.
The
partnership
is
between
OCC
HD
and
also
prodigal,
we'll
be
managing
and
executing.
U
A
Does
sound
like
great
fun
once
again,
15,000
people
last
year
and
hopefully
for
a
bigger
crowd
this
year,
I
know
it's
a
little
bit
weather
reliant,
but
we
hope
people
will
come
out
bring
their
dogs,
absolutely
children,
really
lots
of
fun
things
to
do.
The
streets
are
blocked
off
of
food
trucks
and
an
opportunity
to
to
take
walks,
meet
people
and
and
get
healthy
all
at
the
same
time,
can't
tell
you
how
much
we
appreciate
the
County
Board
of
Health.
Putting
these
events
together.
A
There
they're
just
wonderful
for
us
to
get
outside
how
about
a
motion
to
approve
item
six,
be
cast
your
votes
passed
unanimously.
Thank
you
have
a
wonderful
day.
Item
6c
is
a
request
from

V
Morning,
mr.
mayor
members,
council,
I'm
John
Oseland
and
live
at
2300
Brookside
Avenue
in
Edmond
Oklahoma.
The
2017
edition
of
the
red
Cody
running
in
Fitness
Oktoberfest
5k
is
their
fall.
Grassroots
running
festival,
it's
held.
This
would
be
about
the
seventh
year
of
the
event
hosted
by
the
running
store
our
third
year,
I
think
in
the
Midtown
location
over
there,
with
in
conjunction
with
faster
haul
and
running
up
to
Midtown
I'd,
be
a
Sunday
afternoon
event
and
probably
around
a
thousand
runners.
The
benefit.
V
A
W
W
A
X
X
X
It
will
begin
3
hours
prior
to
tip,
regardless
of
what
the
time
is,
gives
our
fans
an
opportunity
to
interact
some
of
our
entertainers.
It
gives
people
who
might
honestly
be
from
Oklahoma
who
are
around
in
town,
opportunity,
see
what
the
Thunder
has
to
offer
and
he
gets
an
opportunity
for
our
fans
to
get
excited
to
support
our
team.
A
Y
The
carne
diem
yeah
the
were
excited
to
put
on
our
15th
annual
carne
diem,
which
is
a
chili
cook-off
and
block
party
on
Park
Avenue
to
benefit
the
United
Way
of
Oklahoma.
This
year
it's
on
October
20th,
it's
another
Friday
morning
from
11:00
to
1:00.
We
intend
to
close
down
the
streets
a
night
before
to
set
up
some
tents
and
the
stage
so
that
we
can
move
easily
in
the
morning.
There
will
be
access
to
204
South
Robinson
throughout
the
throughout
the
night,
and
then
party
is
11
to
1.
So
please
block
your
calendars.
O
It
is
it's
an
incredibly
fun
day
and
I
was
so
disappointed.
I'm
gonna,
be
out
of
town
and
I
won't
be
able
to
be
there,
but
everybody
do
come
down
at
Chili's,

and
thank
you
for
helping
raise
money
for
the
United
Way,
really
grateful
move
approval.
Please
all.
A
A
A
S
Z
Z
It
had
a
it
had
an
original
use
of
being
a
freight
station,
but
the
station
that
we
see
today
was
actually
built
in
its
form
in
1934
for
a
cost
of
1/2
million
dollars
and
the
architect
was
was
Harrison
from
Chicago
Illinois.
It's
had
a
lot
of
uses
since
that
time,
most
recently
and
I
think
most
of
us
are
familiar.
Z
We
have
plied
for
a
tiger
grant
to
renovate
the
Santa
Fe
station
into,
what's
now
being
called
the
intermodal
transit
hub
intermodal
being
it's
going
to
serve
a
number
of
uses,
not
just
train,
but
something
that
will
also
serve
our
Maps
three
streetcar,
something
that
will
also
provide
for
bus,
other
forms
of
transit
like
pedestrian
bicycle
on
possibly
other
type
of
rentals,
whether
it
be
Segway
or
other
vehicles
like
that.
Also
the
potential
for
taxi,
uber
and,
of
course,
other
other
things
like
that.
Z
Z
We
received
an
acog
grant
for
two
million
for
a
total
project,
cost
of
twenty-eight
point
four
million
dollars,
and
with
that
we
actually
broke
the
project
into
four
phases
and
so
two
of
the
phases
I'm
going
to
update
with
construction
photos
today,
phases
one
and
two
and
three
and
four
I'll
show
you
what
those
future
plans
on.
So
this
is
phase
one,
and
this
was
a
lot
of
the
interior
remodels
of
the
building.
Z
This
was
to
preserve
its
historic
significance,
as
we
work
through
this
tap
architecture
was
our
architect
that
helped
make
sure
that
we
maintained
a
lot
of
the
finishes.
This
is
one
of
the
early
renderings
that
we
showed
of
showing
that
intermodal
hub
status,
where
you
actually
see
the
bus,
drop-off
and
loading
areas,
you
can
see
the
Amtrak
train
on
the
top
of
the
elevated
tracks.
Z
Their
space
is
identified
in
the
blue
area,
and
this
provides
that
access
at
the
upper
level
areas
where
the
pedestrians
can
actually
load
and
unload
off
at
that
train
that
accommodates
about
5,000
square
feet
near
the
main
entry
for
access
and
allows
all
those
pedestrians
to
come
and
go
from
the
station.
The
second
space
is
in
orange.
This
is
going
to
be
HMS
ferries.
Z
This
is
also
known
as
the
Oklahoma
River
cruisers
and
they
currently
operate,
and
it's
going
to
be
more
of
an
operation
here
that
you're
going
to
see
in
November
of
this
year,
so
they'll
actually
use
this
as
their
primary
space.
Also,
an
orange
is
the
bicycle
transit
system
or
the
spoke
ease
it's
about
1,500
square
feet
of
space.
It
too
will
be
in
operations
in
about
November
of
this
year.
Z
Looking
at
the
light
blue
near
the
bottom
of
the
drawing,
this
is
a
future
space
December
2017
to
about
a
March
2018
implementation
on
its
destination
Oklahoma
and
the
scissortail
gift
shop.
So
these
are
new
spaces
that
are
currently
being
finished
out.
Factor
110,
the
region's
leader
in
the
event
and
destination
management
will
be
launching
both
of
these
as
initiatives
for
the
new
building
and
then
final
pink,
it's
all
at
the
bottom,
which
is
in
the
pink,
obviously
a
current
tenant.
Z
They
operate
about
a
4,000
square
feet
of
space
they've
recently
renewed
a
new
five-year
lease,
and
so
they'll
continue
to
operate
a
store
that
offers
cupcakes
candy
gifts,
coffee
and
party
services,
and
so
one
of
the
things
that
you'll
see
is
to
is
a
multi-use
facility
and
there's
a
lot
of
different
tenants
that
are
in
that
space
and
there's
also
some
room
for
growth.
It's
about
thousand
feet
remaining
in
the
main
hall
that
could
be
used
as
multi-purpose
space.
Z
These
are
some
of
the
photos
and
I
think
one
of
the
things.
As
we
noted
this
was
a
renovation
of
a
building
and
the
exterior
previous
to
this
photo
was
really
dirty.
There's
a
lot
of
black
material
that
was
starting
to
adhere
to
that
old
limestone,
and
so
this
is
a
West
entrance
that
is
really
familiar.
It's
the
center
stone
of
the
building,
but
if
all
that
stones
been
cleaned
and
so
you're,
seeing
that
today,
you're
seeing
a
renovated,
exterior
and
interior
to
the
intermodal
hub,
this
is
an
artwork
piece.
That's
been
installed.
Z
This
is
connectivity,
it's
different
stainless
materials
using
kettle
guards
and
the
different
methods
of
transportation
throughout
Oklahoma
Marsh
Scott
was
the
artist
and
she's
from
Dana
Point
California.
So
this
is
one
of
the
art
pieces
that
Robbie,
Kinsel
and
and
her
staff
have
helped
make
sure
that
we
get
installed
in
the
new
facility.
This
is
what
that
looks
like
at
night
from
the
exterior.
So
you
can
actually
see
this
from
from
outside.
Z
The
building
moving
to
the
interior
is
what
you're
gonna
see
is
a
lot
of
the
preservation
of
the
historic
finishes
and
so
you're,
seeing
a
lot
of
those
interior,
limestone
walls
you're,
seeing
a
lot
of
the
terrazzo
floors
that
have
been
restored.
This
is
the
ticket
counter
and
the
new
newsstand
moving
to
the
main
hall
you'll
see
a
complete
renovation
as
well.
You're
gonna
see
the
decorative
ceilings.
It
really
is
probably
a
space
that
you're
going
to
need
to
see
in
person
to
really
appreciate
it's
very
hard
to
photograph.
Z
But
there
was
quite
a
bit
of
open
opportunities
to
be
able
to
place
different
vendors
here.
This
is
the
new
exterior
gate.
This
helps
hide
some
of
the
trash
services
at
the
building,
so
that
you're
not
going
to
see
just
dumpsters
and
things
that
are
part
of
building
operations,
and
this
is
some
of
the
connectivity
when
we
start
talking
about
the
dish
walking
spaces
in
providing
some
level
of
covered
platforms
for
those
that
just
might
be
waiting
in
the
area.
Z
This
is
the
upper
section.
This
is
what
you
see
up
top
and
there's
been
a
lot
of
work
on
the
roof
of
the
facility,
which
has
had
a
history
of
a
number
of
leaks.
This
is
also
a
place
that
has
an
opportunity
for
future
expansion,
and
so
there's
been
talk
about
regional
transit.
So
what
I
will
share
is
that
the
elevated
portion
of
the
track
could
be
expanded
to
accommodate
additional
tracks
in
the
future,
not
as
a
part
of
this
project,
but
something
that
could
happen
later,
leading
to
the
Phase
two
portion.
Z
This
was
2.1
million
dollars
again,
Jim
Cooley
was
the
contractor.
This
work
is
also
nearly
complete,
but
now
we're
talking
about
the
exterior
space,
not
the
building
specific,
but
we're
talking
about
the
plaza
to
the
north
and
the
plaza
to
the
south.
It
will
finish
up
here
this
next
month.
This
next
slide
is
showing
that
north
plaza
so
get
your
bearings
ek.
Gaylord
is
at
the
top
of
this.
Drawing
and
Sheridan
is
to
the
right,
and
this
is
that
completely
remodeled
and
renovated
outdoor
space.
That
has
a
lot
of
the
project.
Z
180
features
that
she
find
in
downtown,
so
you're,
seeing
a
lot
of
nutri,
Wells
you're,
seeing
a
lot
of
remarked
and
restriped
parking
areas.
One
of
the
things
that
was
also
done
was
the
curb
was
moved
out
away
from
the
building
provide
for
more
space,
and
so
we
actually
have
more
space
than
what
was
previously
provided.
Z
You
can
see
the
grand
entry
where
it
says
west
entrance
Plaza,
the
old
street
literally
came
up
to
that
front
step,
and
you
can
now
see
that
we've
got
a
lot
of
buffering
space
for
pedestrians
that
are
entering
and
exiting
the
building.
This
is
that
West
Plaza.
So
again,
Gaylord
is
at
the
top
of
the
drawing
Reno
on
the
left.
Pinkett
soul
is
in
the
retail
space
on
the
on
the
Left.
Z
These
are
some
of
those
photos
as
we're
working
through
that
today
the
pavers
are
going
down.
The
polls
are
going
in
to
start
the
signalization
again
at
Reno
and
Gaylord
you're,
seeing
a
lot
of
construction
activity
there.
These
are
some
of
the
tree
planters
that
are
getting
ready
to
receive
some
of
their
trees
and
again,
a
lot
of
these
construction
materials
will
be
removed
from
this
site
here
this
next
month.
This
is
the
exterior
of
the
completed
spaces.
Z
Just
some
more
construction
update
photos
I'm
just
showing
that
progress
I
know.
A
lot
of
this
was
really
difficult
to
see
and
we've
recently,
in
the
last
few
weeks,
moved
traffic
to
where
you're
now
adjacent
to
the
building,
instead
of
a
the
far
side
of
that
so
you're
starting
to
see
some
of
these.
In
person,
that's
been
blocked
off
for
the
past
year.
Z
Now
these
last
two
phases,
I'm
going
to
mention
I'll
update
very
quickly
as
phase
3
and
phase
4
they've
not
yet
started
the
construction
time
frame,
for
these
is
2017
to
2019.
Phase
3,
specifically,
is
the
finishing
of
the
pedestrian
tunnel.
That's
going
to
connect
to
downtown
to
brick
town
through
the
Santa
Fe
station,
we're
working
with
BNSF
and
finishing
up
some
final
plans,
and
this
is
a
project
that
ODOT
will
actually
bid
as
a
part
of
their
million
and
a
half
dollar
match
to
the
project.
Z
So
as
we
get
ready
to
move
this,
for
the
plans
are
complete
and
as
soon
as
we
have
those
final
approvals
in
place,
we'll
be
able
to
start
this
work.
So
what
you
can
expect
is
that
there
is
a
tunnel
inside
the
Santa
Fe
hub
now
that
stops
about
halfway
under
those
tracks.
This
tunnel
will
then
open
that
up
and
bring
us
all
the
way
the
way
into
brick
town
so
you'll
actually
have
a
place
to
go
through
that
through
the
tracks,
as
opposed
to
having
to
use
the
at
grade
crossings
either.
Z
It's
shared
in
arena
on
the
phase
4.
This
is
work.
That
would
be
the
final
phase.
It
will
take
about
six
to
eight
months.
To
finish,
we
do
have
to
have
the
pedestrian
tunnel
open
before
we
can
complete.
This
estimated
cost
is
about
2.6
million,
but
this
will
open
up
the
entry
into
brick.
Town
and
you'll
see
the
addition
of
a
grand
staircase.
It
will
also
have
a
DA
accessibility
through
ramps.
Z
It
preserves
the
existing
fountain,
that's
already
there
at
the
brick
down
canal,
but
again
it
makes
that
additional
pedestrian
corridor
into
and
out
of
the
intermodal
hub.
And
then,
if
you
go
through
the
hub
in
and
out
of
downtown,
so
the
overall
schedule
nearly
complete
on
phases,
one
and
two
phases.
Three
and
four.
We
expect
to
hopefully
be
able
to
gain
very
shortly
here
in
the
next
few
months
to
the
early
part
of
next
year.
Z
One
last
update
project
180
is
proceeding
very
well,
so
this
is
specific
to
e
K
Gaylord.
So
we're
looking
down
from
the
air
on
the
right
Sheridan
on
the
left,
Reno
and
right
in
the
middle
Ek
Gaylord.
So
some
of
the
other
features
that
you
can
expect
and
there's
just
not
a
part
of
the
intermodal
hub,
but
all
the
activity
that
you
see
in
the
area
is
adding
median
2ek
gaylord,
it's
reducing
the
overall
road
width
from
six
lanes
to
four.
Now
it
will
still
have
turn
lanes
at
the
intersections.
Z
It
also
has
a
median
opening
to
allow
access
into
and
out
of
the
Cox
Consent
Convention
Center
garage.
It
also
provides
for
the
street
car
which
will
operate
on
the
top
of
this
page
it'll
be
a
southbound
street
car
operating
on
Ek
Gaylord.
You
can
also
see
the
pullout
and
drop-off
areas
for
the
intermodal
hub,
but
all
of
this
work
is
also
wrapping
up
here
in
the
next
couple
of
short
months.
So
we
can
expect
to
see
all
of
these
improvements
very
soon
as
well
and.

Oh
sorry,
to
bring
the
Oklahoma
City
Renaissance
that
a
lot
of
members
of
this
esteemed
body
have
resided
over
the
past
20
years
to
the
northeast
side
of
Oklahoma
City
through
a
lot
of
trial
and
error.
A
lot
of
conversations
we
try
to
figure
out
what
it
would
take
to
sustain
urban
redevelopment
in
the
minority
community
and
over
the
last
30
years.
AB
I
thought
that
no
offense
to
Jonathan,
but
I
thought
I
I
thought
that
they
would
be
a
group
or
a
team
that
could
teach
us
some
things.
We
could
learn
from
him.
But
there
been
a
lot
of
folks
who
showed
up
on
the
north
east
side
with
a
lot
of
promises
and
we
really
haven't
seen
things
follow
through
so
I
kind
of
I
took
him
at
his
word
that
they
were
interested
in
helping
us
figure,
some
things
out
and
I
kind
of
left
it
at
that.
AB
AB
We
want
to
talk
to
you
about
it,
but
it's
going
to
take
us
partnering
with
you
bringing
other
folks
around
the
table
to
really
do
it
right,
but
we're
gonna
throw
everything
we
can
edit,
if
you,
if
you,
if
you
want,
if
you'd,
be
interested
in
partnering
with
us
to
come
over
and
do
some
work
on
the
north
east
side.
So
our
partnership
was
born
from
those
conversations
about
three
years
ago
and
it
culminates
in
the
project
that
we're
going
to
talk
to
you
about
today,
after
a
lot
of
creative
effort.
AB
After
a
lot
of
starts
and
stops,
and
after
a
little
bit
of
luck,
we
are
in
the
process
of
renovating
18,000
square
feet
of
class.
A
medical
space,
the
Oklahoma
City
clinic,
will
move
their
primary
operation
to
headquarters
and
then
opening
up
a
sari
10,000
square
foot
of
that
for
Oklahoma,
City
clinic
and
then
18,000
square
foot
of
that
we
hope
to
open,
fully
leased
with
the
other
8,000
another
local
community-based
health
care
provider.
AA
Thanks
sandy
knowin
Thank,
You
counsel,
I
wanted
to
start
just
by
thanking
a
couple
people
that
have
been
a
part
of
this,
and
some
of
them
are
here
today
and
some
were
not
able
to
make
it
but
Citizens
Bank
of
Edmond
who
ended
up
doing
the
construction
financing
on
this
councilman
Pettis
for
his
continued
support
of
the
object,
Michael
Owen's
and
Kathy
O'connor,
and
the
Alliance,
the
Perry's
mr.
Kevin
Perry
and
mr.
Russell
Perry
for
their
support.
Aisha
lark
for
who
is
our
realtor
on
the
project.
AA
One
sandy
Anna
and
I
were
involved
with
kind
of
a
maps
for
neighborhood
trying
to
see
what
the
community
needed
and
one
of
the
things
we
heard
on
the
east
side
was
this
need
for
access
to
health
care,
and
so
we
decided
that
phase
one.
If
we
could
find
someone
crazy
enough
to
join
us,
we
would
go
do
phase
one
as
health
care,
and
so
we
started
talking
with
Scott
and
I
think
in
probably
March
or
April
of
last
year
we
were
able
to
get
a
lease
signed.
AA
They
signed
a
10-year
lease
for
ten
thousand
of
the
18,000
square
feet,
and
so
we
assumed
fairly
quickly
we'd
be
able
to
get
financing,
and
this
thing
would
be
ready
to
go.
We
had
been
talking
with
the
city
and
we
really
didn't
have
any
luck
and
so
I
think
if
you
were
to
combine
all
of
the
difficulties
we've
had
with
getting
financed
for
all
of
our
projects,
and
you
were
to
combine
it
all
together.
AA
It
still
did
not
equate
to
how
difficult
this
project
was
to
find
financing,
and
so
thankfully,
after
some
stops
and
starts
and
almost
approvals,
we
were
able
to
sit
down
with
Citizens
Bank
of
Edmond
and
they
basically
said
if,
if
you
are
able
to
bring
someone
else
to
the
table,
to
guarantee
the
loan
with,
you,
then
we'll
step
up
to
the
plate.
And
so
we
reached
out
to
Steve
Mason,
whom
I
think
many
of
you
know
who's
a
pioneer
but
has
an
incredible
philanthropic
heart
as
well,
and
so
he
agreed
to
join
in
this
venture.
AA
And
so
we
gave
away
some
of
our
ownership
to
bring
him
in,
and
so
he
agreed
and
citizens
bank
of
Edmond.
We
were
able
to
close
on
a
construction
loan
about
two
weeks
ago
or
three
weeks
ago,
and
so
one
of
the
things
that
we
realized
in
this
process
and
that
the
biggest
challenge
that
banks
have
right
now
is
a
lack
of
comparables
on
the
east
side.
So
we
heard
that
from
every
bank
that
declined
us
was.
AA
You
will
be
those
two
developments
will
provide
the
comps
so
that,
if
you're,
an
entrepreneur
on
the
east
side
or
if
you're
wanting
to
do
your
own
thing,
the
banks
don't
have
that
as
a
reason
now
not
to
finance
projects
in
the
future.
So
I
think
that's
pretty
much
it
I.
Okay,
see
Clinic,
wanted
to
speak
as
well.
They're
a
CEO,
Scott
Potter,
but
I
didn't
know.
If
you
guys
had
any
questions
or
anything
like
that
questions.
A
AC
AC
We
don't
want
to
be
in
a
big
health
center
type
setting,
and
so,
when
John
approached
us
about
being
on
the
northeast
side,
there
were
certainly
some
things
that
were
very
appealing
about
that,
because
a
large
portion
of
our
patients
currently
come
from
the
northeast
side.
There
were
also
some
things
that
were
scary
about
it
because
of
the
some
of
the
perceptions
of
that
area,
and
while
a
lot
of
our
patients
come
from
there,
a
lot
of
our
patients
come
from
northwest
Oklahoma,
City
and
South
Oklahoma
City
areas.
East.
AC
You
know
all
the
way
down
to
Tuttle,
so
it
was
really
important
to
us,
the
that
it
be
a
facility
that
was
as
nice
as
any
facility
in
Oklahoma
City
and
that
we
weren't
just
gonna,
be
there
on
an
island,
but
that
this
was
gonna,
be
the
the
first
step,
an
additional
development
that
made
the
neighborhood
a
very
welcoming
place
for
people
from
northeast
Oklahoma
City
and
for
all
of
the
patients
that
we
serve
from
from
all
over.
So
I
would
just
like
to
you
know,
say
we're
very,
very
excited
to
to
make
this
move.
AC
AA
Don't
know
if
you
guys
have
seen
the
slides,
but
we
can
kind
of
walk
through
them.
Real,
quick.
If
that's
that's
helpful,
the
we
you
know
I
tried
to
put
in
in
the
first
slide,
basically
just
the
the
challenges
that
we
had
going
into
this
and
the
opportunities
that
we
think
this
redevelopment
will
occur.
And
so
you
know
most
of
what
you
see
on
project
challenges.
AA
Are
we
face
some
of
that
and
some
of
the
buildings
we've
gone,
but
not
in
the
magnitude
that
we've
had
on
this
and
so
from
the
environmental
issues
to
the
misperceptions
to
OKC
clinic
because
they
agreed
to
work
with
us
and
not
go
into
the
northwest
side.
We
had
a
limited
time
to
be
able
to
move
them,
so
we
actually
have
to
have
them
in
their
building
by
May.
So
it's
a
really
fast
turnaround
for
us
and
then
they're.
AA
Just
like
I
said
there
was
no
comparables
in
the
area,
and
so
the
this
is
an
eighteen
thousand
square
foot
redevelopment
and
then
to
the
east
of
that
will
be
another
eighteen
thousand
square.
Foot
redevelopment
and
it'll
have
various
users.
We've
got
two
healthcare
related
users
and
then
restaurants
and
it'll
be
about
60
to
70
percent
minority-owned
businesses
that
will
be
going
into
that
space.
AA
Sir,
so
they'll
know
and
and
we
you
know-
we
have
an
LOI-
that's
been
signed
for
the
remaining
8,000
square
feet,
and
so
we
have
to
go
through
that
process
to
make
sure
that
we
can
get
a
lease
executed.
But
our
hope
is
that
you
know
the
opening
of
that
remaining
a
thousand
square
feet
will
be
shortly
thereafter:
okay,
Edie.
K
K
AE
AD
Of
the
summary
of
what
you're
being
asked
to
approve
this
morning,
so
the
total
cost
of
this
first
phase
is
4.3
million
and
the
allocation
that
we're
requesting
is
a
1.3
million
dollar
allocation
from
the
Northeast
Renaissance
TIF
district.
At
this
point
in
time,
the
Northeast
Renaissance
TIF
district
does
not
have
any
available
funds,
so
the
second
part
of
the
resolution
is
authorizing
an
internal
loan
from
the
2007
general
obligation,
limited
tax
bond
fund
program
to
fund
this
allocation.
AD
First
of
all,
the
goal
is
to
recover
the
principal
amount
within
the
15
year
within
a
15
year
time
period.
We
have
multiple
sources
that
we
look
at
the
taxes
that
will
be
paid
by
this
development
or
the
primary
source
of
the
funding
of
the
increment.
But
then
there
could
be
other
incremental
revenues
from
the
from
the
rest
of
TIF
9.
That
could
also
help
this
project
and
then
there
would
also
work
why're.
Some
annual
general
fund
support
over
that
15
year
period.
AD
It's
estimated
that
if
this
project
performs
at
the
very
conservative
estimates
that
are
in
the
performer
right
now
that
that
amount
could
total
six
hundred
thousand
dollars
over
the
life
of
the
TIF.
But
if
the
project
performs
better
than
anticipated,
there
are
certain
stipulations
in
the
redevelopment
agreement
that
allow
for
the
city
to
participate
in
the
upside.
AD
So
if,
if
there's
participation
in
in
cash
flow,
if
they
exceed
their
annual
rent
threshold,
there's
participation
on
the
project,
if
upon
sale,
if
they
sell
it
and
and
realize
any
gains,
then
we
participate
in
that
and
then
there's
participation
is
eliminated.
If
the.
If
the
developer,
refinances
and
repays
45%
of
the
provided
tip
TIF
up
front,
the
the
agreement
provides
for
no
flip,
no
flipping
of
the
project
for
ten
years,
and
then
there
can
be
no
material
change
in
the
ownership
group.
AD
The
refinancing
cash
out
would
would
eliminate,
can
remove
the
participation
requirements,
so
we
would
get
our
money
back
and
then
we
wouldn't
be
able
to
participate
anymore.
So
those
are
just
some
of
the
the
stoop
ulation
that
are
in
the
redevelopment
agreement.
I
think
I
would
say
that
that
I
think
we
recognized
that
this
is
kind
of
a
first
project.
It's
the
second
project
in
TIF,
nine
that
we've
allocated
funding
for,
but
all
of
these
projects
are
extremely
challenging.
AD
The
first
project
had
the
advantage
of
being
you
know,
owned
by
a
long
term
owner
who
was
doing
the
renovation
and
funding
those
renovations
himself.
He
didn't
have
to
go
borrow
money
from
a
bank.
This
is
much
more
like
a
traditional
real
estate
deal
and
we're
beginning
to
see
the
challenges
in
the
northeast
community.
AD
With
with
these
kinds
of
projects,
the
the
lack
of
comparable,
you
know
comparison
properties
transactions
makes
it
very
very
difficult
for
bad
to
look
at
these
kinds
of
projects
and
and
we're
glad
that
citizens
bank
of
Edmund
was,
they
believe,
lied
to
try
to
answer
any
other
questions.
If
you'd
like
me,
do.
AD
K
AD
AD
K
The
profit,
if
you
once
you're
donating
that
much
capital
once
you're
into
the
30%
range,
should
you
not
put
out
an
RFP
and
say
it's
a
policy
of
the
council
that
we
want
to
increase
healthcare
access
on
the
northeast
side
or
we
want
to
do
a
grocery
store
or
whatever
and
we're
going
to
put
out
an
RFP
and
let
everybody
bid
for
that.
I
mean
here.
K
We
have
four
four
Caucasian
investors
who
are
going
to
own
this
entity,
find
that
with
a
third
of
the
capital
by
taxpayers,
they
couldn't
be
done
without
the
taxpayers,
I
mean.
Perhaps
minority
interests
would
want
to
bid
for
something
like
this
on
the
northeast
side.
And
if
you
just
opened
it
up
and
said
the
council,
we
want
to
increase
healthcare
access,
we're
gonna
donate.
This
is
1.3
million
for
what
phase
one
and
then
phase
two
comes
when
90
to
120
days
later.
AD
K
90
days,
so
this
is
just
part
one.
This
is
just
the
first
1.3
million.
Then
there's
gonna
be
another
sizable
allocation
from
the
taxpayers,
so
it
just
seems
like
as
a
policy
if,
if
we
want
to
do
a
grocery
store
or
we
want
to
help
increase
the
healthcare
access,
let's
open
it
up
to
everyone
not
have
Caucasian,
investors
buy
buildings
on
the
northeast
side
and
then
once
they've
already
owned.
It
then
come
to
us
and
say
hey.
We
can't
make
this
work
without
record
setting.
AD
Think
that's
an
approach
that
we
can
look
at
and
that
we've
considered
in
the
past
and
you
know.
Typically,
we've
tried
not
to
compete
with
private
sector
developers
on
these
kinds
of
things.
But
we
could
certainly
look
at
a
process
where
we
issued
an
RFP
to
identify
developers
for
certain
high-priority
projects
that
the
the
City
Council
would
like
us
to
to
to
take
on.
O
Okay,
I
also
I
mean
I,
don't
think,
there's
been
anything
quiet
about
our
desire
to
use
the
Northeast
TIF
to
create
development,
I
mean
we.
We've
talked
about
a
grocery
store,
as
you
said,
for
years
and
years,
and
we
finally
got
one.
We've
talked
about
needing
to
improve
health
outcomes,
whether
it
was
through
the
wind
study
or
other
things.
We
it's
an
obvious
need.
O
AD
Know
I,
you
know
I,
think
part
of
the
challenge
with
the
Northeast
Renaissance
TIF
right
now
is
there
are
no
TIF
revenues.
So
it's
it's
really
difficult
to
try
to
to
figure
out
how
you
can
leverage
that
into
into
investment.
So,
but
we
can
certainly
look
at
it.
I
mean
it
can
be
a
you
know,
kind
of
a
pay-as-you-go
approach,
which
is
that
really
the
policy
that
the
City
Council
is
adopted
for
that
TIF
district
anyhow.
K
AD
Since
this
is
an
internal
loan,
we
try
to
look
at
each
project
individually
on
a
standalone
basis,
so
this
internal
borrowing
would
not
would
not
go
against
any
future
development
proposals
that
we
might
see
on
the
northeast
side
now.
Would
we
like
there
to
be
other
development
that
generates
excess
increment
so
that
we
don't
have
to
dip
into
the
city's
general
fund?
Absolutely
so
I
think
that's
the
you
know
that
that's
our
hope
is
that
we
do
start
to
you
know
from
this
development
and
some
of
the
other
things
that
are
beginning
to
happen.
AD
K
AD
Mean
I
I
want.
We
probably
need
to
keep
in
mind
that
on
on
pretty
much
all
of
our
other
TIF
districts,
we
have
lines
of
credit
and
outstanding
borrowing,
so
that
has
been
the
policy
of
the
council.
In
the
past
we
tried
to
take
a
different
approach
with
this
TIF
district,
but
at
the
beginning
of
the
increment
district,
sometimes
that's
very
difficult
to
do.
Last.
K
P
I
think
Edie
brings
up
some
important
points
to
consider,
and
this
is
how
I
look
at
it.
I
think
everybody's
aware
of
the
struggles
that
have
occurred
with
development
activity
and
in
northeast
Oklahoma
City,
and
if
we're
not
willing
to
kind
of
prime
the
pump
in
a
sense
and
be
the
first
one
to
make
that
investment
it
may
be
decades
before
we
see
development
occur
without
this
kind
of
assistance.
P
So,
but
for
that
fact,
I
would
have
the
same
concerns
add
that
you've,
shared
and
in
but
I
think
something
has
to
be
done
and
so
far
this
is
the
first
thing
that's
being
proposed
to
us
and
I'm
willing
to
take
a
certain
level
of
risk,
but
I
want
the
developers
to
understand.
We
are
looking
and
we'll
hold
you
accountable
to
make
sure
this
is
as
successful
as
it
can
be.
O
Would
say
a
similar
thing:
I
mean
I,
really
respect
the
tenacity
and
the
hard
work.
This
is
as
clear
an
example
of
the,
but
for
that
we've
seen
this
project
would
not
happen,
could
not
happen
without
a
partnership
and
the
city's
the
right
partner,
your
I,
think
to
health.
So
you
are
gonna,
be
held
to
a
very
high
standard
of
success,
because
this
needs
to
be
the
pebble
that
will
cause
that
ripple
effect
that
we've
seen
in
so
many
other
neighborhoods.
O
M
All
right,
Thank
You
mr.
mayor,
as
many
of
you
know,
when
I
first
got
elected
in
2013
I
started
pushing
for
economic
development
to
occur
in
northeast
Oklahoma,
City
I
grew
up
in
northeast
Oklahoma
City
still
live
in
northeast
Oklahoma
City.
A
couple
of
years
ago,
the
planning
department
brought
in
some
consultants
to
talk
about
for
housing
and
in
that
study,
I
pointed
out
several
things.
It
showed
that
minorities
in
our
city
are
denied
mortgages
on
a
higher
level
than
any
other
race.
M
It
also
pointed
out
the
small
business
loans
in
northeast
Oklahoma
City,
the
amount
of
small
business
loans
in
northeast
Oklahoma
City
compared
to
other
parts
of
our
city.
Northeast
Oklahoma
City
is
sad
to
say
that
it
is
a
red
light,
red
light
district,
meaning
that
it's
being
difficult
for
banks
to
give
loans
in
northeast
Oklahoma,
City
I
believe
this
particular
development
passes
the
but-for
test
and,
and
it
has
been
difficult
to
get
development
to
happen
in
northeast
Oklahoma
City.
M
I
do
want
to
apply
the
developer
for
being
inclusive
for
is
making
sure
minorities
are
involved
in
this
project,
which
is
different
than
what
has
happened
before
so
I
do
want
to
say
thank
you
for
involved
in
the
community.
As
a
part
of
this
redevelopment,
the
Northeast
Renaissance
TIF
district
is
more
than
1200
acres.
M
The
Northeast
Renaissance
TIF
district
does
not
have
a
line
of
credit,
so,
yes,
we're
going
to
have
to
borrow
from
within.
That's
one
of
the
things
that
you
know
did
concern
me
about
the
potential
of
borrowing
from
the
general
fund,
but
in
this
case,
I
believe
that
if
we
have
to,
we
need
to
again
to
spur
economic
development
along
North,
East,
23rd
Street,
in
the
simple
fact
that
you
know
this
is
we're
talking
about
bringing
healthcare
services
into
the
inner
core
of
northeast
Oklahoma,
City
I
think
says
a
lot.
M
We
know
that
several
years
ago
the
city,
the
health
department
put
together
a
a
study
about
health
in
Oklahoma
City.
It
showed
that
the
73
101
zip
code
was
one
of
the
unhealthiest
ZIP
codes
in
our
city.
So
this
again
brings
health
services
to
a
community
that
really
needs
health
services.
So
with
that
said,
I
strongly
support
this
development
in
rest
assured,
the
ward
7
northeast
oklahoma
city
will
hold
on
the
developers
accountable
for
this
development.
M
A
AF
Right
cool
I
have
a
written
statement.
Excuse
me
if
my
teeth-
chatter,
it's
good
little
cold
in
here
all
right.
My
name
is
Quintin
Hughes
and
I'm.
A
proud
resident
of
northeast
Oklahoma

former
board
member
of
the

and
current

OKC
Renaissance
Inc,
where
our
mission
is
to
be
a
catalyst
for
economic
prosperity
and
a
preserver
of
cultural
traditions.
AF
We
achieved
this
through
ethical
advocacy,
education
and
integration
of
resources,
and
our
vision
is
to
provide
a
pathway
to
improve
the
quality
of
life
for
residents
of
northeast
Oklahoma.
City
I
truly
see
northeast
Oklahoma
City
as
a
star
attraction
in
Oklahoma,
City's
bright
future
and
believe
that
our
beautiful
community
has
the
potential
to
be
a
vibrant
hub
of
rich
culture
and
traditions,
quality,
minority-owned
businesses
and
a
thriving
local
economy.
AF
With
this
unique
structure,
tenant
mix,
improving
group
of
community
minded
developers
at
the
helm,
the
northeast,
23rd
and
Rhode
Island
project
offers
an
innovative
model
that
restores
a
historic
property
and
architecture
with
the
architectural
standards
comparable
to
developments
in
the
city's.
Most
popular
districts,
in
addition
to
a
world,
took
world-class
construction.
The
project
also
offers
build-out
assistant
with
assistance
with
affordable
leases,
we'll
continue
to
cultivate
a
majority
group
of
minority
tenants
and
give
them
equity
in
the
development
to
ensure
success.
They
say
that
the
success
of
the
project
benefits
all
if
successful.

Aaron

one-on-one
I've
honored
to
serve
as
the
CEO
of
the
Oakland
City
Black
Chamber
of
Commerce
and
I'm
originally
from
came
from.
California
grew
up
most
of
my
life,
but
from
high
school
on
in
Oklahoma,
City
Oklahoma
and
coming
from
there
and
my
professional
career
one
of
the
things
that
we've
heard
time
and
time
again
to
general
consensus
when
it
comes
to
northeast
side
of
Oklahoma
City
one
is
that
developers
probably
won't
build
their
to
the
city
or
some
funding
in
it.
AG
He
probably
wouldn't
fund
it
and
most
of
my
professional
career.
That
is
rang.
True,
we've
seen
that
time
and
time
again,
it's
been
mentioned
before
how
several
things
have
happened,
to
try
to
spur
some
sort
of
development,
some
sort
of
economic
train
to
get
to
the
ball
rolling,
and
it
has
not
happened
here.
We
have
an
opportunity
to
do
something.
We
have
part
of
that
done.
AG
We've
got
developers
who
have
come
together
partner
with
the
city
partner,
with
their
partner
with
the
community,
have
taken
the
active
steps
to
make
sure
that
the
community
itself
is
involved
and
not
just
bringing
outside
people
to
do
that.
We've
had
an
opportunity
to
see
what
John
and
his
team
understand
exactly
where
they're
going
and
understand.
We
talked
about
healthcare,
healthcare,
healthcare,
and
that
is
a
big
big
part
of
this
health
care
is
a
huge
part
of
it.
But
what
we're
also
understanding
as
a
community
is.
AG
This
is
a
cornerstone
to
do
exactly
what
we've
talked
about
doing
for
years
and
years
and
years,
and
that's
a
really
really
have
an
opportunity
to
spur
economic
growth
and
economic
development
in
this
part
of
the
city.
A
part
of
the
city
that
we
all
know
we
can
all
agree
has
to
have
something
done,
and
if
that's
the
case,
then
we
support
that
as
the
black
chamber.
We
support
it
with
the
partners,
there's
a
community
behind
me
that
is
here
in
unity
all
supporting
this
project.
AG
So
there's
one
one
piece
of
this
puzzle
that
has
to
come
together
and
it's
the
people
in
front
of
me.
It's
the
council,
it's
you
looking
into
your
heart,
looking
into
what
you
know,
we
need
to
do
something
on
this,
so
I
would
ask
that
we
put
aside
any
personal
differences.
I
would
ask
that
we
look
and
say:
hey
David.
You
said
it
perfectly
when
we
look
at
something
that
has
to
be
done.
We
know
it's
the
first
time,
but
we
have
to
do
something.
We
have
to
do
something
to
spur
this.
AG
We
have
to
do
something
to
make
this
happen.
Mayor
you've
had
a
vision
for
Oklahoma,
City
and
I
can
promise
you
it
I
know.
You
would
tell
me
when
you
first
started
doing
some
stuff.
There's
probably
somebody
said
nothing
like
that's
been
done
before.
This
is
the
same
thing.
What
we
want
to
do
is
we
want
to
look
10
15
20
years
from
now
and
say
you
know.
Well,
we
had
an
opportunity
to
make
a
difference
and
we've
made
that
choice
to
make
a
difference
once
again,
Oklahoma
City,
Black
Chamber
supports
this.
AG
AH
Now
you
want
me
to
believe
mr.
John
Pettis
that
this
all
European
development,
okay,
it's
going
to
go
to
promote
black
business.
Why
don't
you
use
some
of
this
monies
you're
talking
about
in
this
TIF
district
for
the
black
businesses?
That's
already
existing
or
the
northeast
side
of
Oklahoma
City?
Wasn't
we
got
to
have
an
outsider
come
in
like
we're
a
baby,
they
can't
do
for
ourselves.
AH
Now
then,
you
want
me
to
believe
that
almost
we
want
to
put
a
1/3
of
this
bill
of
a
four
over
more
than
four
hundred
four
million
and
three
hundred
forty
three
million
dollar
bill,
and
you
want
to
split
one
million
three
hundred
up
on
the
northeast
side.
Taxpayers
dollars.
Are
you
kidding
me
man?
You
have
done
nothing
but
hear
from
malt
gentrification
you're
not
trying
to
pretend
with
me
because
I
know
better
now,
here
it
is.
You
got
a
mr.
Steve,
let's
see,
let
me
go
down
here
and
refer
to
my
records.
Steve
Mason.
AH
Isn't
it
ironic
that
he
lives
in
Edmond,
just
like
mr.
Russell
Perry
and
Elvis,
and
you
Russell
Perry
my
corns
you're
being
used
as
pawns
to
further
justify
our
community
and
move
us
out
so
that
your
P
community
to
come
in
and
take
over?
This
is
done
with
the
apartment
bears
on
sixth
Street
and
North
Stonewall.
This
is
done
with
the
Renaissance,
the
development
on
36
and
in
killing.
This
is
not
by
accident,
but
by
design.
Now
you
already
stated
your
own
by
the
way,
the
Citizens
Bank
of
Edmond.
AH
Isn't
that
ironic,
two
of
Citizens
Bank
of
Edmond
is
a
man
by
the
name
of
Steve
Mason
of
Edmond
who
have
to
live
in
the
same
city
as
mr.
Russell
Perry,
who
owned
majority
a
lot
of
black
businesses
on
the
northeast
side
of
Oklahoma,
City
I.
Think
not,
sir!
Now
you
say
a
lot
of
people
already
say
that
well
with
the
in
african-american
community
that
a
lot
of
investors
don't
want
to
come
over
here,
yeah.
They
want
to
come
now
because
they
know
that
this
is
about
to
be
a
European
control
providing
community.
AH
Now,
as
it
is,
we're
being
moved
out
these,
and
now
this
so-called
medical
district
saying
you
got
one
on
10th
Street
right
now,
you
got
one
in
Midwest
City.
What
do
you
mean?
There's
a
need
for
more
health
care
facilities.
You
got
plenty
of
less
utilize
them.
Let's
give
Michael
Washington
some
of
these
money,
so
you
really
build
this
after
America
community
if
it's
for
real
and
your
people
not
trying
to
take
it
from
us.
AH
But
as
long
as
you
got
this
man
sitting
here,
a
poor
excuse
of
a
war,
several
councilmen
you're
gonna
always
have
a
problem
on
the
northeast
side
of
Oklahoma
City,
and
we
are
not,
as
citizens
gonna
approve
of
this
blizzard
flagrant
disregard
for
the
rights
of
the
citizens.
Now
again,
captain
you
are
into
this
as
well.
Now
this
man
brought
up
a
great
exact,
perfect
point:
Michael.
AH
I'm
getting
ready
to
wrap
it
up,
so
come
earth
I'm
long-winded.
But
let
me
tell
you
something
else.
My
friend
and
I:
don't
hate
you
I,
just
don't
like
the
fact
you're
conspiratorial.
Now
you
got
four
developer
again
coming
from
from
Edmond.
Let
me
you
danced
around
with
me.
Why?
Because
you
know
I
would
be
in
opposition
to
this.
You
knew
Michael
Washington.
C
R
Strongly
support
this
project
in
the
northeast
quadrant
I
have
the
Sun
Dial
project,
which
I'm
now
on
my
second
lender,
that
there's
a
there's
a
strong
stick
after
the
Northeast
and
it's
very
difficult
to
get
lending
I,
try
not
to
partnership
or
tax
credits,
or
things
like
that.
But
it's
just
because
it's
impossible
or
someone
like
me
in
the
Northeast.
Sorry.
R
Also,
you
know
you
speaking
about
taxes.
Well,
they
raised
my
taxes
to
$8,000,
which
it
was
a
four
hundred
and
seventy-six
thousand
dollar
house.
Oh,
you
know
we.
If
you
want
to
do
something
to
Northeast.
You
know
this
is
very
important,
because
I
can't
even
get
clients
to
purchase
it
because
there
is
a
stigma
attached
and
I
think
it
needs
to
go
away
because
and
people
say,
aren't
you
scared?
No
I'm,
not
scared.
Everybody
is
really
nice.
It's
nicer
than
Midtown
downtown
Edmond.
R
You
know,
I'd
love
it
over
there
and
it's
a
great
families
and
I
also
have
tried
to
start
a
fundraiser
for
the
Northeast.
Academy
and
I
want
to
raise
money
for
the
sports
facilities
there,
because
they
can't
even
hold
sports
functions,
because
it's
basically
dilapidated
and
unsafe
and
they
can't
generate
their
own
funds,
their
own
sports
functions.
They
have
to
pass
out
other
schools
and
I've
got
the
foundation
agreement
started.
I'm
gonna
hold
the
function.
R
C
A
Right,
thank
you.
You'll
make
a
motion
John
all
right.
We
have
a
motion
in
a
second
come.
This
is
oh,
it's
a
good
point.
This
is
on
the
consent,
docket
with
a
lot
of
other
things.
So
let
me
not
get
ahead
of
it.
Meg
wanted
to
talk
about
a
couple
items
that
were
also
on
the
consent
docket.
So
let's
do
that
before
we
officially
vote
on
the
consent.
O

First
of

O
O
You
Jared
second
quick
thing
mirror
was
on
7a.
Why
number
two-
and
this
is
our
landscape,
improvement
and
maintenance
agreement
with
Oklahoma,
City,
Beautiful
and
I
just
want
to
recognize
them
for
their
efforts.
It's
not
just
in
this
one
location
on
16th
to
49th
Street,
but
you
know
I,
think
everybody
knows
they
work
with
partners
all
over
the
city
to
create
pockets
of
plantings
and
and
make
our
city
look
so
much
better,
and
so
we're
very
grateful
to
have
Oklahoma
City
beautiful
as
a
long-term
partner
with
us.
Your.
P
Honor,
yes,
David.
One
item
item
a
are:
it's
just
an
announcement
of
contract
of
a
contract
to
make
additional
sidewalks
throughout
Oklahoma
City,
with
the
exception,
unfortunately,
of
word
four
and
five
and
I
do
want
to
congratulate
her
or
commend
mtz,
because
I
believe
that's
the
same
contractor
that
is
putting
in
the
sidewalks
along
South
by
Avenue
they're,
doing
it
very
efficiently
very
quickly
and
they
look
great
my
question
city
manager.
P
If
we
have
a
neighborhood,
that's
adjacent
to
an
arterial
roadway
that
wants
to
add
sidewalks
along
that
way,
is
the
city
set
up
to
receive
funds
that
could
be
dedicated
solely
to
that
project?
I'm
sure
we're
good
yeah!
Well
I've
got
a
vision
of
my
Avenue
going
from
now
a
hundred
34th
Street,
all
the
way
down
to
Reno
Avenue
with
continuous
sidewalks
along
that
area.
P
There
is
a
one-mile
section,
that's
going
to
prevent
that
from
occurring
and
I
happen
to
know
some
of
the
people
that
live
in
that
neighborhood,
and
perhaps
we
could
convince
the
city
then
to
put
in
some
sidewalks
in
a
Park
area.
That's
within
that
one
mile
section,
and
then
we
could
have
a
continuous
line
of
sidewalks
from
134th
all
the
way
down
to
Reno.
So.
A
Thank
you
sounds
like
a
good
idea
on
the
surface.
Let's
look
into
that.
Okay,
any
other
comments
or
questions
on
the
consent.
Docket,
all
right,
yeah,
all
right,
so
this

will
be

all
of
the

on

for

Item
nine
begins
a
series
of
items
that
require
a
separate
vote,
we'll
start
with
a
series
of
zoning
cases.
The
first
is
an
ABC
issue
in
Ward
2.
The
address
is
607
northwest
28th
Street
II.
Do
you
want
to
take
hold
of
this
one?
Did
anybody
have
to
speak?
I,
move
for
approval,
all
right
comments
or
questions
on
9a,
one
cast
your
votes.
It
passes
unanimously
item
9a
to
as
a
zoning
case
in
Ward
six.
O
A
I
A
M
A
Voting
on
item
9a
for
cast
your
votes,
it
passes
unanimously
item
9,
8.
Five
is
a
zoning
case
in
Ward
7
at
six
five
to
four
northeast
120.
Second
Street,
it's
currently
double-a
agricultural
and
it
would
change
to
RA
to
single-family
two
acre
rural
residential
district
and
John
Eric
moody
has
signed
up
to
speak.
Yes,.
AJ
Name
is
Eric
moody
at
4:01,
Karen,
Drive,
Edmond,
Oklahoma,
1701
3.
This
is
a
location
for
my
father's
new
for
55
years.
It's
where
I
grew
up
and
he's
85
years
old
now
and
we're
trying
to
do
this,
for
his
health
benefit,
he's
gotten
to
a
place
where
you
still
cognitive
skills
are
still
good.
You
can
still
get
around,
he
doesn't
take
good
care
of
insulin,
and
so,
through
the
family
discussions,
we
decided
to
divide
the
property
and
build
an
apartment
under
the
same
roof
with
us.
AJ
M
So
he
asked
requested
an
emergency
I
know.
Typically,
we
don't
really
grant
emergencies,
but
in
this
particular
case
where
the
applicant
has
a
elderly
father
that
he's
trying
to
take
care
of
I
am
going
to
ask
for
the
emergency.
I
know
doctor
sadiq,
but
this
is
a
health
related
issue.
So
I
am
going
to
respectfully
ask
for
the
emergency,
so
I'm
going
to
ask
for
two
things
and
the
first
motion
will
be
to
approve
the
second
one
will
be
for
the
emergency.
A
A
I
You
mayors
anyone
signed
up.
No,
this
is
approve.
This
is
really
a
case
of
an
existing
mobile
home
park,
they're
just
trying
to
to
straighten
out
the
zoning
on
it
to
bring
it
into
conformance.
There
were
no
protesters,
its
Planning
Commission,
and
they
voted
unanimously
unanimously
to
approve
it.
So
with
that
I
would
move
for
approval
all.
A
M
A
We're
voting
on
item
9a
8
cast
your
votes.
It
passes
unanimously
out
of
nine.
A
nine
is
a
zoning
case
in
Ward
3
at
1001,
South,
Mustang
Road.
It's
currently
our
one
single-family
residential
and
are
three
medium
density,
multi-family
residential
and
it
all
be
put
into
a
new
PUD
if
approved
Larry.
Yes,.
J
J
That
track
is
part
of
this
PUD
right
here,
and
it
joins
a
neighborhood
to
the
north
west
watch
and
a
number
of
years
ago,
probably
as
much
as
10
years
ago.
This
came
into
a
zoning
and
the
people.
If
you
notice,
between
the
track,
3
and
and
the
neighborhood
to
the
north.
On
the
far
eastern
side,
there
is
a
cut
out
there
where
there's
no
house
shown
and
the
neighbors
did
not
want
connectivity
between
their
neighborhood
and
the
track.
3,
which
was
at
this
time,
was
just
an
empty
field
and
still
is
an
empty
field.
AK
J
It
was
quite
a
bit
of
lively
debate
at
the
Planning
Commission.
The
Planning
Commission
does
not
like
connectivity
cutoff,
but
with
some
persuasion
they
agreed
as
direc
elected
to
go
along
with
that.
So
I
wanted
to
make
sure
that
when
we
do
this,
if
I'm
correct
and
that
was
carved
out
and
said,
there
will
be
no
connectivity
between
these
two
neighborhoods
at
this
location
that
gets
handled
at
a
future
stage,
as
this
goes
along
sure.
AK
David
box
5
to
2
called
Ford
Drive.
This
will
have
to
go
before
the
Planning
Commission
again
for
planning
purposes.
So
what
we,
what
we
can
do
is
we
can
perhaps
add
a
te
and
add
a
provision
this
PUD,
that
the
connectivity
issue
is
not
decided
within
the
pub
but
rather
will
have
to
be
decided
at
the
plotting
phase.
A
P
P
AM
P
A
Right
we're
voting
on
a
vote.
Zoning
change
on
nine
eight
in
cast
your
votes.
It
passes
unanimously
item
9a
eleven
as
a
zoning
case
in
Ward
3,
one
1:06,
North,
Gardiner
Avenue.
It's
currently
our
one
single-family
and
see
for
general
commercial
district
and
there's
a
new
spud
design
for
it.
Larry.
Yes,.
J
A
J
J
A
M
A
L
This
is
a
changing
from
our
Ford
spud,
with
a
c3
base.
There's
a
lot
of
multifamily
already
in
the
area,
so
I
think
this
is
a
good
change
to
add
a
mix
of
uses
but
still
compatible.
It's
intended
to
be
a
storage
building
which
certainly
isn't
exciting,
but
usually
the
those
are
pretty
good
neighbors.
So
does
anybody
move
for
approval
all.
A
N
A
A
J
A
L
Initially,
this
was
a
this
had
one
protestor
but
I
believe
the
developer
has
met
with
them
and
and
worked
things
out.
Has
anybody
else
signed
up?
No
okay?
Well,
this
has
just
gotten.
It's
got
an
eye
one
base
and
it's
pretty
much
surrounded
by
c3.
This
is
a
vacant
lot.
That's
been
vacant
forever.
Ever
since
I
was
a
little
kid
and
all
this
other
stuff
has
pretty
much
always
been
there.
So
hoping
this
zoning
change
could
get
it
get
it
developed.
A
A
Right
we're
voting
on
9a
19
and
it
passes
unanimously
item
9b
would
clean
up
some
wording
on
it
on
a
zoning
change,
a
scriveners
air
to
change
the
use.
Is
there
a
motion
here
on
9b
all
right
cast
your
votes
it
passes
unanimously.
Do
we
need
to
vote
twice
once
on
the
amendment
and
once
okay
I'll?
Take
that
motion?
Is
the
amendment
and
now
I
need
a
motion
on
9b
to
cast
your
votes.
It
passes
unanimously
all
right
item.

Good
morning
we're
staying
evans,
oklahoma
city,
4108,
North,
Harvey

we're
here
to
speak
on
our
representation
for
Iowa
Christian
Church
she's,
the
chairman
of
the
church
I'm
one
of
the
elders
of
the
church.
What
we're
about
is
our
pastor
has
been
in
place
for
45
years,
he's
retired
he's
been
a
leader
in
the
community
of
Oklahoma
City.
What
we
would
like
to
do
and
we've
taken
history,
the
Planning
Commission
and
all
of
the
proper
authorities
is
asked
that
the
Commission
found
last
approval
of
naming
of
this
church.
I'm.
Sorry,
the
naming
of
the
street.

your

All
right
now
we
can
build
a
convention
set
thanks
to
9d.
All
right,
9e
is
up
for
final
hearing
today.
This
has
been
recommended
for
denial.
It's
an
ABC
issue
in
Ward
7.
The
address
is
three
four
to
eight
northeast
23rd
Street
and
John.
Two
people
have
signed
up
to
speak
all.
AP
Name
is
Shari
Leslie
and
there,
but
not
the
709
North
East
84th
Street,
Oklahoma,
City,
okay-
and
this
is
my
mom
Amuro,
so
at
1518,
Northeast
29th
and
my
brother
Kanan
and
my
uncle
kee
and
we're
here,
because
it's
a
family
business
that
we're
trying
to
get
liquor
license
for
we
have.
We
sell
food
and
everything
and
we
have
did
our
homework.
AP
In
other
words,
we
checked
out
the
zoning
area
and
how
far
we
are
from
a
church-
and
you
know
a
lot
of
things
like
that-
and
today
we're
here
to
find
out
why
it
was
denied
or
if
we
can
be
approved,
because
what
we
are
intending
to
do
is
have
you
know
it's
a
family
business,
but
it
also
opens
up
a
few
jobs,
not
alive,
and
if
we
can
get
it
legalized,
like
liquor,
look
about
a
drink,
we'll
be
able
to
hire
security.
You
know
we
have
someone
there
to
help
patrol
the
area
now.
AP
What
I
do
understand
also
is
that,
from
the
past
experience
when
my
mom
owned
another
establishment
that
it
didn't
go
very
well,
but
right
now
it's
family,
it's
us
and
we
want
to
get
it
approving,
have
something
you
know
it's
on
the
east
side
and
I'm,
not
sure
how
that
this
worked.
This
is
you
know,
like
a
second
time
being
here
so
right.
A
AL
M
Is
for
this
particular
location?
No,
but
the
Karen
applicant,
yes,
the
Karen
applicant
owned
boots
and
saddles
on
northeast
23rd,
Street
and
I
know
for
the
least
30
years,
every
Ward
7
council,
along
with
every
major
Spring
Lake
Division,
had
issues
with
the
applicant
former
establishment
and
I.
Think
that's
one
of
the
reasons
why
and
it's
not
in
the
staff
report,
but
the
police
department
did
weigh
in
on
this
particular
on
this
particular
case.
M
The
former
establishment
caused
a
lot
of
problems
in
northeast
Oklahoma
City
when
I
first
got
elected.
I
shall
never
forget
those
cows
that
I
received
from
neighbors
complaining
about
you.
I
was
former
establishments
cause
from
from
people
and
who,
who
are
elderly
and
I.
Never
shall
forget
the
last
person
who
got
killed
at
us
establishment.
M
Well,
it
was
still
on
the
property
and
that
wasn't
the
first
person
who
got
killed.
There
wasn't
the
first
person
who
got
shot.
We
think
about
how
many
people
who
got
stabbed
injured
at
you.
I
was
former
establishment.
I
just
simply
cannot
support
port
this
with
that
being
said,
I'm
going
to
actually
for
denial
of
this.
AP
Also,
it's
the
fact
that
if
they
did
their
investigation,
a
lot
of
those
problems
did
not
stem
from
the
its
establishment.
It
came
from
the
club
that
closed
down
the
street
and
they
hang
out
hung
out
in
that
particular
parking
lot,
but
we
didn't
have
security
there.
We
have
plans
to
help
security
right.
Okay,
yeah
we've
been
in
business
a
year
and
a
half
right
now
we
have
no
problems,
no
complaints,
no
problem,
even
the
neighbors,
it's
a
few
houses
in
the
back
and
they
are
even
on
board
with
this.
AP
K
M
I
mean:
is
it
that
that's
that's
that's
one
of
the
reasons
I
think
you
saw
that's
one
of
the
reasons
and
if
I
had
a
whole
book,
I
can
I
could
actually
list
a
whole
book,
because
the
the
the
applicant
had
37
years
of
running
the
business
right
down
the
street
that
caused
a
lot
of
crime
to
happen
in
northeast
Oklahoma.
City
Willa
tried
her
best
to
shut
down
the
business,
skip,
tried
and
eventually,
I
was
able
to
get
the
along
with
the
police
department.
M
AM
Need
to
keep
this
on
the
yes,
and
also,
if
you
note
the
comments
by
the
police
department
in
there,
and
also
your
adding
an
additional
and
stronger
alcohol
at
this
location,
they
can
already
continue
to
operate
a
beer
tavern.
That's
a
legal
non-conforming
use,
so
they're
not
gonna
go
out
of
business.
Okay,
thanks.
A
All
right

through
our
endeavors
to
make
sure
that
when
we
authorize
special
events
that
we
bring
those
event,
you
offer
your
approval.
We
want
to
make
sure
that
the
activities
are
in
a
healthy
way
and
and
through
research,
we've
discovered
that
the
color
runs
that
we
have
hosted
in
the
past.
The
majority
of
the
product
that
is
used
to
paint
the
the
participants
have
some
health
issues
related
to
them.
You
can
be
allergic
to
it.
AE
You
can
inhale
it
get
into
your
sinuses
in
your
lungs,
also
as
it
falls
onto
the
pavement
and
on
the
grasses.
It
can
wash
into
our
streams
and
our
waterways
and
it's
not
the
best
environmentally
sensitive
activity
that
we
have
been
approving
in
the
past.
We
are
looking
to
make
it
an
illegal
activity
for
people
to
use
the
products
and
and
outlaw
color
runs,
be
happy
to
answer
any
questions.

This

assessment

It's
over
on
Southwest
29th
Street.
A
couple
of
people
have
showed
up
this
morning,
a
Jeanette
Strickland.
AS
First,
attendance
of
this
thing,
I'm
totally
exhausted,
I,
don't
know
how
you
guys.
Ladies
absorb
all,
this
I'm,
just
like
my
head,
is
spinning.
I
have
a
lot
of
respect.
I'm
the
vice
president
of
the
Thornberry
homeowners
association.
We've
been
working
with
the
city
to
get
our
streets
donated
to
the
city
for
various
reasons.
AS
A
AT
AT
You
know
from
the
improvement
assessment,
I,
don't
know
what's
going
on
this
later
and
they
say
and
odd
now
I'm
Audi
they
need
to
be
and
they
divide
all
the
homeowner
everybody
light
a
home
on
I
have
to
pay
almost
$4,000
for
to
do
this
project.
So
I
don't
know.
What's
goin
on
football
champion.
Well,.
A
A
Okay,
but
you
can
speak
to
Eric
offline.
You
you're,
welcome
to
go
outside
and
we'll
get
you
more
information
on
this
issue,
we're
not
voting
on
it
today.
This
is
just
a
public
hearing
for
people
to
come
down
and
get
more
information
or
to
say
what
they
like,
which
is
what
Jeanette
did?
Oh,
it's,
both
a
public
hearing
and
a
resolution
I'm
glad
you
caught
that.
Alright,
we
are
gonna
vote
on
this
today,
so
Eric.
Z
So
I
mean
just
so
that
we're
all
up
to
speed
and
we'll
bring
the
council
up
today
to
we
do
so
assessment
districts
at
the
request
of
residents.
It's
not
something
that
the
city
staff
or
the
council
initiate
it's
a
state
statute
that
provides
for,
if
there's,
the
majority
of
property
owners
in
an
area
that
wish
to
upgrade
their
facilities,
and
a
lot
of
these
would
be
roads.
It
does
also
apply
to
drainage.
Z
It
can
apply
to
water
and
sewer,
there's
a
mechanism,
and
that
allows
the
residents
to
more
or
less
self
impose
a
tax
over
a
number
of
years
to
pay
for
those
improvements.
But
the
benefit
is
you
can
take
a
private
improvement
in
this
case.
Thornberry
has
private
streets
and
private
drainage
that
are
the
responsibility
of
the
homeowners
to
keep
up
with.
This
is
the
ability
for
the
owners
to
one
time
bring
those
up
to
a
public
standard,
and
then
the
city
would
own
it
and
take
care
of
it
from
here
forward.
Z
So
what's
been
on
the
agenda
today.
Is
that
there's
been
a
lot
of
work
over
the
last
year
there
was
an
application
received
in
August
of
2016
from
the
residents
of
Thornbury,
with
the
it
wasn't
quite
70%.
It
was
about
65
percent
approval,
so
the
majority
of
residents
want
to
do
this.
We
finished
up
a
report,
that's
on
for
the
council
today.
The
total
cost
is
about
four
hundred
and
eighty
five
thousand
dollars,
which
includes
work
to
streets
and
drainage
in
the
neighborhood
that
will
bring
those
up
to
the
city's
standard
moving
forward.
Z
If
the
council
were
to
vote
YES
today,
we
will
then
bid
that
project
to
a
contractor,
so
the
actual
cost
will
come
after
the
contractor
bids.
The
work
the
contracts
approve,
the
work
is
done
and
then
for
the
next
ten
years,
the
residents
that
brought
those
streets
or
front
that
drainage
will
pay
that
amount
of
money,
but
it'll
be
owned,
then
by
the
city
to
be
taken
care
of
so
there
won't
be
future
outlays.
That
would
be
required
of
you
as
a
homeowner
are
theirs
in
the
area
and
and.
Z
Will
typically
show
up
on
your
tax
bill
each
year
when
you
pay
your
taxes
that
amount
divided
by
ten
will
be
will
basically
be
placed
on
that
bill.
The
final
amount
will
only
occur
after
we
actually
bid
the
project
it's
possible.
The
project
could
come
in
a
little
bit
less,
it's
also
possible.
It
could
come
in
a
little
bit
more.
So
that's
the
estimate
today
our
best
estimate
of
what
it
will
cost
over
ten
years.
Okay,.
A
So
you're
not
going
to
be
billed
that
entire
amount
at
one
time,
but
over
a
ten
year
period,
the
tax
and
the
tax
rate
will
total
that
amount.
Additionally,
the
advantage
to
you
is
that
you're
going
to
have
a
better
street
than
you
have
before,
and
the
city
will
then
assume
the
ongoing
responsibility
of
providing
maintenance
on
that
property.
From
now
on,
so.
A
You
won't
need
to
really
do
anything
other
than
your
tax
bill
is
going
to
go
up,
based
on
the
fact
that
two-thirds
of
your
neighbors
have
decided
to
assess
themselves
this
additional
amount
that
is
going
to
improve
the
streets
in
your
neighborhood
and
allow
the
city
to
take
responsibility
for
future
maintenance.
The
next
time
the
streets
wear
out
all.
Z
A
Z
So,
just
as
one
of
the
benefits
is
right
now,
if
you,
if
the
council
does
not
vote
this,
any
problem
that
occurs
with
the
street,
the
homeowners
have
to
figure
out
how
to
make
it
the
repair,
not
the
city
and
if
there's
a
problem
that
occurs
at
the
drainage,
the
city
can't
help
the
homeowners
have
to
figure
out
any
problems
with
a
drainage.
After
this,
it
becomes
the
city's
responsibility
to
maintain
the
streets
in
the
drainage.
J
C
AT
A
A
AT
A
A
A
AU
Morning,
mayor
and
council,
aubrey
McDermid
planning
director
wanted
to
give
you
some
background
about
most
recent
comprehensive
plan
amendment
to
plan
OKC
the
city's
comprehensive
plan.
This
comprehensive
plan
amendment
is
for
an
area
in
Ward
1.
It's
the
southeast
corner
of
Britain
and
Mustang
Road.
We
had
a
concurrent
application
for
rezoning,
come
into
the
department
requesting
to
take
this
from
double-a
to
r1
to
do
a
single-family
subdivision
this
area.
AU
If
you'll
go
to
the
next
slide,
it's
a
generalized
area
of
our
comprehensive
plan,
land-use
map,
where
you
can
see
where
the
subject
site
is,
and
then
the
next
slide
shows
a
blow-up
of
that.
So
what
this
shows
is
that
the
comprehensive
plan
designated
this
area
as
urban
reserve,
which
means
that
full
services
are
not
available
today
but
are
within
an
urban
development
within
the
future.
AU
The
development
across
the
street
from
this
has
come
in
since
the
comprehensive
plan
was
adopted
and
the
extended
services
over
for
a
single-family
subdivision,
so
the
applicant
felt
that
it
was
time
and
accessible
to
be
able
to
provide
full
services
to
this
site.
So,
as
you
can
see,
the
plats
that
have
come
into
the
north
side
of
Britton
Road
have
put
those
services
within
the
required
connection
distance
of
within
a
quarter
of
a
mile,
in
this
case
just
directly
across
the
street
you'll
go
to
the
next
slide.
AU
This
is
the
consideration
is
that
when
we
OH
the
urban
reserve
areas
for
full
development,
we
look
at
all
services
that
are
provided
to
the
site.
Of
course,
this
site
can
connect
to
city,
water
and
sewer,
and,
as
we
develop
our
diagrams
to
show
emergency
response,
it's
kind
of
a
bubble
diagram.
You
can
see
the
colors
that
go
from
red
to
a
less
than
desirable
response,
time,
yellow
meaning
kind
of
on
the
edge
of
urban
and
rural
response
time
and
green,
meaning
full
urban
response
time.
AU
Those
bubbles
kind
of
extend
up
to
the
boundary
of
Britain
Road,
but,
as
you
can
see,
that's
an
arterial,
so
the
urban
response
time
for
fire
is
really
considered
to
be
probably
an
urban
response
acceptable
response
time.
So
if
you'll
go
the
next
slide
with
the
extension
of
that
water
and
sewer,
it
takes
it
to
a
different
consideration
level
for
urbanization.
He
was
originally
designated
as
urban
reserve
because
that
entire
parcel
was
undeveloped
and
that
entire
parcel
was
not
in
the
quarter
mile
of
city
water
in
sewer
service.
AU
At
that
time
it
is
within
a
sewer
shed
that
can
be
served
and
we
knew
that
eventually
it
would
come
to
that
direction,
and
so
what
we
do
when
we
in
that,
when
we
do
our
analysis
and
provide
considerations
for
changing,
it
is
look
at
the
prevailing
development
pattern,
which
is
urbanizing
directly
around
that
property
and
the
fact
that
it
is
efficient
to
serve
at
this
point
in
time.
The
next
slide
Planning
Commission
did
consider
this
case.
There
were
no
protests
in
splaining.
A
Item
909
queue
is
this
been
as
this
min
poll
Jim?
Yes,
okay
and
item
9
are
I
understand.
We
do
not
need
executive
session,
that's
correct,
so
we
can.
We
can
go
ahead
and
pass
the
resolution
on
nine
ARS.
Our
motion
cast
your
votes.
It
passes
unanimously
item
9
s
understand.
We
do
need
executive
session,
so
a
motion
to
move
that
executive
session
would
be
in
order
all
right
cast
your
votes.
It
passes
unanimously
item
90
understand
we
do
need
executive
session.
Is
there
a
motion?
Yes,
okay,
cast
your
vote.
It
passes
unanimously
item
9.
S
A
Yes,
sir,
a
second
cast
your
votes
passes
unanimously
item
9
vs
claims
recommended
for
denial.
Is
there
anyone
here,
hoping
to
speak
under
any
item
listed
under
9
v,
all
right?
How
about
a
motion
cast
your
votes?
It
passes
unanimously
item
10a,
as
claims
recommended
for
approval.
Is
there
a
motion
here
cast
your
votes
passed
unanimously
item
11
is
a
resolution
that
would
pay
councilman
Pettis
expenses
when
he
intends
the
National
League
of
Cities
conference
in
Charlotte
in
November
cast
your
votes.
It
passes
unanimously.
S
P
P
One
of
the
services
that
struck
me
because
I
just
didn't
think
about
until
walking
around
the
area
was
free,
family
portraits.
So,
unfortunately,
you
know
we
take
those
things
for
granted,
but
there
are
families
who
just
aren't
able
to
afford
things
like
that
and
they
had
about
15
different
photographers
they're,
providing
portraits.
They
had
haircuts
health
screening.
P
P
Even
in
this
instance,
two
miles
away,
I
mean
I,
don't
think
we
should
ever
disregard
our
neighbors
need
for
some
level
of
quietness
to
sleep
and
why
these
permits
are
allowed
to
go
on
until
11
p.m.
my
thought
is.
There
are
plenty
facilities
throughout
the
city
to
host
these
kinds
of
activities
or,
if
you
want
to
have
them
at
home,
just
be
responsible
and
respective
of
other
people
and
keep
the
noise
within
the
proper
limit.
P
There's
no
notification
to
the
neighborhood
when
you
when,
when
we
issue
these
permits,
so
they
don't
the
neighbors.
Don't
have
any
idea
that
some
events
going
to
take
place
and
there
they
can
call
the
police,
but
these
individuals,
as
a
result
of
that
permit,
are
exempt
from
any
enforcement
action.
What
was
it
David?
What
were
they
doing?
A
party
I
mean
it
was
a
lack
of
birthday
party
and
granted
I
understand
certain
birthdays
are
kind
of
important
anniversaries.
I
mean
I,
get
that
I'm
just
saying.
P
P
Yeah,
well,
okay,
but
again
and
I'd
also
say:
why
do
we
allow
to
go
till
11:00
p.m.
for
some
people
that
doesn't
seem
like
a
late
time
of
the
evening,
but
for
some
of
us,
as
we
get
older,
that
becomes,
you
know
a
fairly
late
period,
and
you
know
you
could
schedule
it
say
from
7:00
to
10:00.
That's
three
hours,
plenty
of
time
to
go
around.
P
You
know
talking
to
everyone
asking
how
the
family
is
and
all
that
and
then
move
on
so
I
just
would
like
for
the
council
me
maybe
I'm
looking
at
this
incorrectly,
but
I
would
like
for
the
council
to
look
at
this
practice
and
if
nothing
else,
assuming
you
know,
we
don't
have
like
a
hundred
that
we
issue
a
week.
Have
these
permits
come
before
the
City
Council?
Just
like
we
do
on
these
special
events
and
then
we
can
decide.
Is
it
is
it
necessary?
Is
it
appropriate
again?
The
concept
just
seems
strange
to
me.
P
P
O
S
We'd
be
happy
to
prepare
a
report
for
you
and
give
you
some
history
on
it.
This
is
a
complex
issue
that
we've
been
dealing
with
with
a
number
of
years,
president
permit
process
that
we
have
works
most
the
time
we
don't
get
very
many
complaints
on
it.
That
being
said,
I'm
sure
there
are
some
people
that
are
inconvenient
from
time
to
time.
Brooke
Smith,
an
empty
berry,
have
been
all
over
this
for
a
number
of
years
and
we'd
be
happy
to
get
your
report
I,
don't
know
how
many
we
do
a
week.
S
Beverly
in
your
officers,
actually
issues
the
permits
or
did
I'm
not
sure,
looking
at
the
processes
yeah,
but
there
are
people
that
do
want
some
amplification
from
time
to
time,
and
sometimes
your
neighborhood
parties
that
happen
out
there,
and
you
know
all
people
don't
celebrate
on
the
7:00
to
10:00
schedule.
That's
out
there
something
yeah.
P
M
Right
and
and
to
piggyback
I
understand
because
I
have
the
zoo,
amphitheater
and
now
lost
lakes
and
so
from
time
to
time.
I
get
those
complaints
about
noise
going
past
10:30,
11
o'clock,
and
you
know
I
I
hear
the
zoo
amphitheater
every
time
they
have
a
concert
well,
who
do
I
call
to
complain
when
I'm
the
council,
so
I
tend
not
to
complain,
but
my
neighbors
complain-
and
they
complain
to
me
so
I-
do
understand
where
you
coming
from
David
in
regards
to
noise
permits
in
an
outdoor.
M
There
is
a
a
need,
but
I
think
when
it
comes
to
notification
and
a
couple
of
other
things,
I
think
we
might
need
to
tighten
that
up
just
say
a
tack
bit
because
from
like
self
from
time
to
time,
I
will
get
those
complaints
dealing
with
the
zoo,
amphitheater
and
lost
links.
Like
said
every
time,
there's
a
concert
at
Slough,
amphitheater
I
hear
it.
What
I
want
to
hear
it
or
not?
I
hear
which
you
know.
That
means
the
city
getting
some
type
of
sales
tax
from
the
zoo.
M
P
Right
well,
excuse
me.
I
just
would
like
to
comment
on
that
particular
point.
People
should
understand
if
they
move
close
to
the
zoo,
amplifier
in
and
close,
is
relatively
speaking,
that
they
may
encounter
that.
But
when
you
have
a
situation
where
you
do
it
out
of
your
home
kind
of
unexpectedly
anyway,.
K
Don't
want
to
get
into
the
MC
lawsuit,
but
one
quick
question
on
the
finances
Miette.
My
understanding
is
that
we
have
built
up
a
reserve
from
the
utility
fee
to
ensure
or
to
protect
against
future
increases.
Would
it
be
accurate
that
that
reserve
is
about
five
million
dollars
and
would
it
be
accurate
that
EMSA
can
tap
that
reserve
to
pay
its
legal
fees
if
they
made?
If
you
don't
know,
you.
S
AV
I,
don't
know
that
it's
five
million
dollars
but
I
think
it's
near
that
I,
don't
know
the
exact
number
and
yes
I
believe
some
would
have
to
work
through
it
legal,
but
that
funding
is
there
to
be
able
to
pay
em
so
for
the
services.
So
if
there
was
something
where
they
were
charged
or
had
a
settlement
of
some
type,
I
would
think
that
we
would
be
able
to
use
that
to
pay
our
portion
of
that,
because
the
fact
that
the
city
and
Tulsa
are
the
sole
beneficiaries
fact.
K
A
AU
Warning
again,
mayor
and
council
I'll
bring
McDormand
planning
director
wanted
to
give
you
a
quick
update
on
a
project
that
we've
been
working
on
in
conjunction
with
downtown
Oklahoma,
City,
Public,
Works,
Department
parking
and
Transportation
Department,
and
the
planning
department
to
to
give
some
guidelines
to
developing
a
wayfinding
plan.
We
would
like
to
start
in
downtown
Oklahoma
City,
so
we
felt
it
was
important
to
put
some
guidance
and
a
framework
around
where
signs
go.
Who
would
get
a
sign
how
they
would
look,
how
they
could
be
constructed?
AU
Go
ahead,
so
we
established
some
goals
for
this
process
and
really
I
think
we
all
understand
that
the
goals
are
we
want
to
help
people
get
to
where
they
need
to
go
in
our
downtown.
Is
our
downtown
is
building
out
and
developing?
We
just
want
people
to
get
there
efficiently
by
either
car
or
by
walking.
AU
So
we
want
to
improve
the
flow
of
traffic
and
promote
people
walking
downtown,
making
it
easier
for
them
to
get
there
and
then
a
primary
goal
is
that
we
don't
increase,
sign
clutter
that
through
our
downtown
wayfinding
signage
plan,
it's
something
recognizable
by
people
once
they
figure
out
where
to
look
to
get
this
directional
signage,
something
that's
clean
in
its
design.
It's
easily
readable
from
a
distance
easily
installed
and
maintained
and
easily
updated
by
the
city
so
established
within
the
scope
of
the
project
that
it's
going
to
start
in
downtown.
AU
Also,
in
some
locations
downtown,
we
may
be
able
to
locate
a
mid
block
sign
to
help
people
try
to
find
the
entrance
to
certain
parking
garages
so
that
they
can
look
for
that
sign
when
they
get
close
to
their
destination
and
not
miss
it
as
they're.
Coming
up
on
that
turn,
so
we
established
some
criteria,
so
this
is
to
build
a
wayfinding
system
not
only
in
downtown
but
in
the
future.
If
this
wayfinding
system
is
funded,
we
could
increase
this
to
other
areas
of
the
city.
AU
But
in
order
to
do
that,
we
are
not
going
to
be
installing
signs
for
every
business
and
every
destination
they
needed
to
fit
a
certain
type
of
destination
and
those
would
be
character,
districts
or
special
districts.
Government
institutions,
cultural
institutions,
our
transportation
and
major
parking
facilities
and
our
entertainment
facilities,
and
we
categorize
these
destinations
into
tears
and
the
tears
help
us
dictate
how
far
out
we
start
to
provide
signage
to
help
people
find
those
destinations
and
how
many
signs
would
be
placed
at
key
intersections.
AU
So
the
first
tiers
are
major
destinations.
These
are
nationally
recognized,
destinations
that
receive
over
200
hundred
thousand
visitors
a
year.
They're
open,
year-round
and
majority
of
those
visitors
are
not
local.
The
second
tier
would
be
a
regionally
recognized
destination
of
over
25
thousand
visits
a
year
and
they're
open
at
least
nine
months
a
year,
and
then
the
third
tier
is
solely
for
pedestrians.
Only
these
are
locally
recognized
and
primarily
accessed
by
walking
walking.
So
our
first
pass
at
creating
some
signage
would
include
the
different
destinations
throughout
our
downtown
within
categorized
by
the
different
tiers.
AU
AU
So
we
also
established
some
guidelines
about
the
placement
of
these
signs
of
the
tier
1
signs,
which
are
the
large,
nationally
recognized
highest
level
tier.
We
would
start
providing
directional
signs
within
one
and
a
half
mile
radius,
so
this
would
be
potentially
even
as
you
get
off
the
highway
trying
to
guide
them
into
our
downtown
to
find
those
destinations.
The
smaller
scale
destinations
within
about
a
half
mile
radius
of
that
destination,
you'd
start
to
see
the
wayfinding
signs
and
key
intersections
and
then
again
with
the
pedestrian
signs
for
those
very
large
destinations.
AU
You
may
be
walking
further
from
a
parking
garage
or
from
where,
where
you
might
be
dining
for
an
evening
event
to
a
facility,
that's
within
a
10-minute
walk
of
that
as
you
get
closer
and
closer
to
the
destination.
Those
pedestrian
signs
would
dictate
whether
you're
in
a
5
or
a
10-minute
radius
of
the
destination.
AU
AU
These
are
proposed
intersections
for
that,
knowing
that
we
are
going
to
have
to
go
out
and
do
some
field
testing
and
make
sure
that
those
signs
are
placed
at
the
best
intersection
for
that,
so
these
may
adjust
a
little
bit,
but
that's
something
that
we
intend
to
do
is
we
install
signs?
The
next
level
would
be
the
analysis
we've
done
on
the
best
placement
for
those
pedestrian
sign
locations
throughout
downtown,
ok
and
then
with
established
guidelines
I've
where
on
the
street
poles
these
are
placed.
This
is
allows
people
to
make
an
instant
notification.
AU
Instant
identification
of
the
signs
looking
in
the
same
location
placed
a
certain
distance
below
the
actual
street
name
on
the
same
Pole
as
the
street
Pole.
So
you
can
kind
of
see
how
you
could
have
multiple
destinations
signed
with
the
blue
blades
that
point
in
the
direction
of
your
turn
that
you
would
need
to
be
making
and
then
below
that
a
certain
distance
on
the
pole.
AU
You
would
see
where
the
black
pedestrian
signs
would
be
located
if
also
established
some
guidelines
about
how
many
signs
would
be
too
many
signs
for
one
pole,
we
do
not
want
to
contribute
to
sign
clutter
in
the
downtown,
and
we
also
want
people
to
be
able
to
scan
that
list
of
destinations
and
read
it
easily,
while
they're
traveling,
so
it's
established
a
maximum
for
the
number
of
signs
per
pole.
Next,
one
also
shows
where
those
mid-block
poles
could
be
placed.
AU
We
don't
want
to
create
additional
poles
in
the
downtown
area,
so
we
want
to
use
existing
infrastructure.
This
is
a
very
neat
system
that
can
be
created
in
the
city
sign
shop.
It
is
strapped
around
the
pole
to
match
the
pole,
so
it's
very
clean,
very
minimalistic,
so
we're
we
are
presenting
this
project.
It
is
Public.
AU
Works
was
able
to
identify
source
of
funds
to
be
able
to
fabricate
these
signs,
so
we
are
letting
you
all
know
when
we
presented
to
the
downtown
Oklahoma
City
Board
next
month,
we'll
be
presenting
to
the
bid
board,
Planning
Commission
and
then
the
design,
review,
committees
and
commissions.
So
far,
we've
had
a
very,
very
positive
response.
AU
This
is
something
that
we've
been
working
on
for
a
long
time,
trying
to
elevate
people's
ability
to
travel
around
our
downtown
easily
and
as
we
studied
other
cities
and
their
wayfinding
systems,
we
feel
like
the
one
that
we've
developed
has
taken
the
best
parts
of
what's
worked
well
in
other
cities
and
I
believe
that
we're
replicating
or
doing
something
other
cities
will
want
to
replicate
I'm
happy
to
answer
any
questions.
If
you
have
any,
and
we
also
have
Eric
Weiner
and
we
had
cory
hubert
from
the
transportation
and
parking
department,
we'd.
AU
A
O
Just
a
quick
comment:
I
think
you
know
European
cities.
Do
this
a
lot
it
look.
It's
great
and
I
really
applaud
you
for
kind
of
cleaning
it
up
and
get
rid
of.
As
many
thing
we
can
another
tiny
idea
and
some
they
do
this
a
lot
in
New,
York
City,
where
they've
got
streets
named
they've
got
weird
names
for
people
or
for
individuals
or
they
double
hang
the
street
sign
and
the
place
I'm
thinking,
that's
very
confusing
downtown
is
Robinson.
It's
called
Thunder
alley
for
Thunder
street
for
a
block.
Z
Would
just
share
that
this
is
something
that
Audrey
and
I've
discussed
previously
and
I.
Think
is
we
kind
of
work
out
the
graphics
on
how
that
would
work
on
the
existing
signage
system
that
we
have?
We
would
like
to
propose
a
solution
like
that
for
that
in
other
streets
that
have
dual
names,
or
at
least
have
a
historical
name
and
then
have
been
renamed
it.
Yes,
so
I
think
that's,
probably
something
we
could
provide
in
the
near
future.
Okay,
Larry
of.
J
Z
We
would
be
abandoning
the
old
signage
system
so
when
the
signs
were
previously
placed
the
previous
wayfinding
signage
lot
of
the
streets
had
not
been
converted
to
two-way
the
time
that
those
signs
were
installed.
So
we
had
some
that
we're
pointing
in
the
wrong
directions.
It
was
really
a
system
that
kind
of
dated
itself
with
our
revitalized
downtown
the
we
refer
to
those
as
the
older,
blue
and
gold
signs
it's
possible.
There
may
be
a
few
of
those
that
are
still
in
the
inventory.
Oh
I'm,
sorry,
if
we're
talking
that
different
one.
S
Z
Okay,
but
that
system
is
gonna
be
replaced,
and
this
is
a
system.
Those
signs
were
hard
to
update.
We
had
to
go
out
for
specialty
consulting
to
get
the
fonts
created
and
some
of
the
sign
blanks
made.
What
our
briefs
presented
today
is
a
system
that
we
have
the
capability
of
completely
doing
in-house.
So
if
there
was
a
name
change
damaged
to
assign
something
would
happen
to
it,
we
could
immediately
replace
it
I.
L
AU
S
AV
You
yeah,
so
we
wanted
to
just
take
a
little
bit
of
time
to
update
you
on
the
impact
of
internet
sales
in
the
city.
I'll
talk
just
briefly
about
the
impact
directly
and
then
Jane
will
talk
about
some
of
the
legislative
issues.
You
all
know
that
sales
tax
in
Oklahoma
City
is
a
significant
source
of
revenues,
our
largest
source
of
revenue
in
the
general
fund
alone.
Sales
tax
is
fifty
two
percent
of
the
revenues
that
we
have
to
provide
services
to
our
citizens.
AV
If
you
combine
use
tax
with
that,
and
the
use
tax
is
really
just
sales
tax
on
goods
purchased
outside
of
the
state
brought
into
the
state
for
use.
You
combine
that
with
sales
tax,
it's
sixty
two
percent
of
our
general
fund
budget.
So
it's
something
that
has
a
significant
impact
when
we're
in
a
situation
where
we
lose
sales
tax
as
a
result
of
internet
sales,
data
taken
from
the
US
Census
Bureau.
AV
No,
you
were
ahead
of
me.
Data
taken
from
US
Census
Bureau
shows
that
online
retail
sales
have
been
increasing
significantly
and
in
2016
alone
it
was
fifteen
percent
and
we
were
looking
back
and
really
it
says
over.
The
last
eight
years
is
ten
percent
growth
that
incorporates
kind
of
the
back
end
of
the
recession
and
that
had
a
significant
impact
on
on
online
sales,
just
like
it
did
on
all
retail
sales.
And
so,
if
you
just
look
in
the
last
several
years,
it's
probably
averaged
closer
to
fourteen
or
fifteen
percent.
AV
That
type
of
growth
just
means
it's
an
indication
that
we're
gonna
continue
to
see
this
growth
and
more
and
more
of
those
sales
are
gonna,
move
away
from
sales
tax
that
we
receive,
and
so
it's
something
that's
really
important
to
us.
Also.
Another
item
that
was
from
the
Census
Bureau
was
that
online
sales
made
up
about
8%
of
total
sales,
total
retail
sales
and
there's
other
reports
that
take
that
same
data
and
then
back
out
some
sales
like
fuel
sales
that
are
rarely
purchased
online.
AV
You
back
those
out
it's
more
like
12%,
so
the
electronic
forms
of
purchases
are
becoming
the
norm,
particularly
the
younger
generation.
It's
just
the
way
that
they
conduct
business
that
they
purchase
online
and
we're
gonna
see
that
to
continue
to
grow,
so
it
becomes
a
bigger
issue.
You
get
any
the
place
where
so
all
sales
really
that
we're
traditionally
purchased
in
stores
are
now
being
purchased
online
media
sales
like
games
and
movies
and
books
and
things
of
that
nature.
Software
are
now
downloaded.
AV
AV
At
the
same
time,
we
do
see
that,
with
those
changes,
we've
estimated
right
now
that
for
the
city,
the
impact
is
about
10
to
15
million
dollars,
and
it's
a
wide
range
I
know,
and
that's
each
year,
it's
difficult
to
nail
down
exactly
because
of
the
fact
of
more
and
more
brick-and-mortar
stores
are
moving
to
online
sales
and
they're
getting
into
that
business
as
well.
So
we
are
capturing
some
online
sales
sales
tax,
because
more
brick-and-mortar
stores
that
do
have
a
nexus
here
in
the
state
of
Oklahoma
are
doing
online
business.
AV
You
all
are
aware
that
the
state
agreed
signed
an
agreement
with
Amazon
and
we're
now
receiving
sales
tax
from
Amazon.
They
actually
remitted
his
use
tax
so
that
those
changes
that
are
going
on
have
an
impact
on
what
amounts
that
that's
a
fact
how
that's
affecting
the
city,
but
we
do
see
that,
as
this
is
going
to
continue
to
grow
and
projections
are
for
online
sales
to
outpace
in-store
sales
for
the
long
you
know
in
the
future
and
then
in
the
near
future
for
sure
and
going
forward.
We
expect
that
to
continue.
AV
So
it's
something
that's
going
to
be
an
important
issue
for
us
and
really
it's
just
an
issue
that
as
the
way
that
people
transact
business
and
make
purchases
has
changed.
We
need
the
tax
system
to
modernize
to
keep
up
with
this
change.
In
the
way
people
do
business,
and
so
that's
something
that
Jane
is
going
to
talk
about
it's
a
federal
issue
that
needs
to
be
addressed
at
the
federal
level.
There's
several
pieces
of
legislation
are
out
there,
and
so
Jane
will
give
us
a
quick
update
on
what
legislation
is
out
there.
Currently.
AW
Good
morning,
mayor
and
council,
Jane
Abraham,
community
and
government
affairs
regarding
the
legislation-
that's
out
there,
not
much
has
moved
on
this.
Recently.
There
is
Senate
bill
in
a
house
bill.
The
senate
author,
senator
Enzi,
has
essentially
announced
that
they're
waiting
for
the
house
to
act
first,
because
the
Senate
did
pass
a
bill
in
2013,
so
in
the
house
never
took
that
legislation
up.
So
their
thought
is
that
it
should
really
go
through
the
house
first
and
then
they'll
deal
with
it
in
the
Senate
and
there's
also.
AW
AW
AW
Is
that
states
have
been
doing
their
own
chipping
around
the
edges
with
a
fairness,
for
example,
Colorado
had
their
law
upheld
that
would
require
online
retailers
to
let
customers
know
that
they
may
owe
X
amount
in
tax,
the
state
of
Oklahoma
passed
similar
legislation,
and
so
that
that
is
in
effect
now
that
online
retailers
are
to
let
customers
know
that
they
may
owe
X
amount
in
tax.
Also,
there
have
been
several
pieces
of
legislation
at
the
state
level
in
Oklahoma
to
encourage
a
voluntary
compliant
compliance
among
retailers
to
to
remit
sales
tax
to
the
state.
AW
O
AW
That
is
correct
and
that
decision
came
down
in
1992
and
at
that
time
the
internet
was
really
in
its
infancy.
If
you
know
there
wasn't
a
lot
of
retail
transaction
taking
place
and
it
dealt
with
catalog
sales
and
sales
over
the
telephone
that
you
couldn't
collect
sales
tax
on
those
things
and
that
has
just
been
interpreted
to
then
apply
to
all
remote
transactions.
That's
correct.
C
AW
Mark
Waid
Mullins
is
actually
a
one
of
the
co-authors
on
the
House
bill.
In
terms
of
the
you
know,
we
visit
with
them
on
it
on
a
regular
basis,
there's
not
really
anything
for
them
to
vote
on
right
now,
unless
they
were
to
become
co-authors
on
the
legislation.
So
you
know
we
get
varying
responses
as
far
as
them
understanding
our
position
and
why
it's
a
concern?
AW
P
My
personal
opinion
is
that
they're
reluctant
to
support
it,
and
it's
that
anti-tax
sentiment
that
carries
over
to
this
issue
and
I
would
ask
that
we
consider
a
resolution
from
the
City
Council
a
letter
to
them
to
explain
to
him
it's
not
a
new
tax,
it's
not
an
additional
tax.
It's
a
tax
currently
owed
by
the
purchasers
of
those
products
in
the
form
of
use
tax,
and
it
just
as
and
and
most
of
them
will
say.
Well,
that's
a
state
enforcement
issue.
P
Well,
but
Oklahoma
Tax
Commission
cannot
go
out
and
send
agents
to
a
home
and
try
to
collect
a
hundred
dollars
worth
of
use
tax
and
pay.
Somebody
twice
that
amount
to
collect
it.
It
doesn't
make
sense
so,
but
I
think
we
could
suggest
to
them
is
one
to
help
educate
them
so
that
they
know
it's
not
a
new
tax.
P
The
taxes
collected
at
the
very
first
sale
from
the
distributor
to
the
wholesaler
and
it
covers
all
the
tax
down
to
the
various
levels.
Ultimately,
to
the
retail
sale
of
liquor,
cigarette
tax
is
done
the
same
manner
just
because
it's
easier
from
an
enforcement
standpoint
to
collect
the
tax
initially
at
this
top
level,
and
you
see
again
in
certain
industries
where
they're
concerned
about
collection
of
the
tax,
and
you
certainly
see
it
in
less
developed
countries,
because
otherwise
that
text
won't
get
collected.
P
Company
level
and
not
put
the
responsibility
back
on
the
individual
purchaser
and
that
would
solve
solve
the
problem.
They
could
do
it
with
federal
legislation.
It
eliminate
any
challenges
and
it's
a
very
simple
solution
and
we
don't
have
the
slide
apparently,
but
when
there
was
a
slide
that
was
shared
with
members
of
the
council
a
few
weeks
ago
that
showed
that
the
loss
on
a
statewide
basis
Craig.
Can
you
help
me?
Was
it
a
half,
a
billion
so
half
a
billion
dollars
of
lost
revenue
to
the
states
over
a
five
year
period?
P
It's
that
significant
and
that's
just
that
the
state
level
I
don't
know
if
it
included
the
municipal
side
of
the
tax,
so
double
that
so
you're
easily
talking
about
a
billion.
The
tax
is
owed
its
not
being
collected.
There's
a
solution.
Our
congressional
delegation
refuses
or
fails
to
understand
the
importance
of
this
and
how
it's
impacting
this,
and
so
that's
why
I'd
suggest
we
consider
preparing
a
letter
that
just
helps
them
understand
an
easy
solution.
P
L
A
personal
story-
I've
purchased
two
things
on
Amazon
over
the
last
couple
weeks
and
they
are
definitely
collecting
taxes
and
it
definitely
has
not
deterred
me
from
buying
online
because
it
still
is
so
much
easier
than
anything
else.
So
I
don't
know
if
that's
an
argument
for
or
against,
but
certainly
the
agreement
that
the
state
has
gone
in
with
the
Amazon
seems
to
be
working.
Dammit.
