Description
The regular meeting of the Oklahoma City City Council for
Tuesday, June 5, 2018, pt. 1
A
Good
morning
we're
gonna
get
started
with
an
invocation
from
Monte
priest
of
new
church,
and
then
that
is
still
correct
right.
That's
sir
I've
just
been
saying
that
I've
known
Monty,
my
my
whole
life.
Basically
so,
and
then
after
that
we
will
have
the
Pledge
led
by
Councilman
green
well,
if
everyone
would
stand
Monty.
B
Loving
father,
we
thank
you
so
much
for
this
new
day.
Thank
you
for
those
that
we
could
share
it
with.
Thank
you
for
our
new
mayor.
We
are
so
thankful
and
so
proud
of
him,
and
thank
you
for
all
of
our
City
Council
and
our
city
officials
and
Lord.
We
just
pray
that
you
would
give
us
kindness
and
care
for
one
another
today
and
help
us
to
show
your
love.
We
love
you
Father
and
we
love
one
another
in
your
holy
name.
We
pray,
amen.
C
A
A
All
right
we're
going
to
begin
with
a
pretty
cool
citation
and
I
have
to
credit
councilmen
Stonecipher
with
this
idea.
But
we
are
the
home
here
in
Oklahoma
City
of
some
really
remarkable
education
institutions
that
were
recently
recognized
by
US
News,
&,
World
Report,
and
we
have
the
leadership
of
most
or
all
of
these
schools
here
this
morning,
and
so
I
would
ask.
Are
our
leaders
here
from
Harding
charter,
prep,
dev,
Science,
Academy
class
in
School
of
Advanced
Studies
and
Harding
Fine
Arts
to
come
up
here
and
join
me?
D
Now,
therefore,
David
Holt,
the
mayor
of
the
city
of
Oklahoma
City,
does
hereby
commend
the
teachers
and
administration
of
these
four
exemplary
Oklahoma
City
Schools
for
their
dedication
to
excellence
in
education,
and
he
further
commends
the
students
of
Harding
charter
preparatory
dov,
Science,
Academy
class
and
School
of
Advanced
Studies
in
Harding
fine
arts
academy
for
their
hard
work
and
determination
to
excel.
Thank.
A
You
what
I
might
do
is
I
might
just
do
a
little.
This
is
a
bit
of
a
dated
reference,
but
a
little
fill
Donoghue
here
and
walk
down
the
line
and
ask
each
of
you
just
to
state
your
name
and
which
institution
you're
with
so
we
properly
know
who
what
what
greatness
we
are
in
the
presence
of
this
morning.
A
I
J
You
know
I
just
we're
so
proud
of
all
the
work
that
you
guys
do
we're
very,
very
grateful,
and
it
makes
you
know
it
makes
us
all
feel
wonderful
when
we
are
in
those
rankings
of
things
that
are
so
important,
because
sometimes
we
see
them
in
there
we're
not
in
the
right
place,
and
so
it's
just
wonderful
for
you
all.
Thank
you.
A
D
A
Good,
thank
you
Buckley.
You
know
we
have
the
best
city,
employees
in
the
country
and
you're.
Certainly
an
exemplary
example
of
that
and
our
citizens
depend
on
you
and
we're
very
grateful.
So
thank
you
having
that
this
is
a
vote,
and
so
we
got
to
see
how
this
turns
out
we'll,
let
you
state
your
case
after
the
fact
you
may
have
some
words
to
say
if
it
fails.
So,
if
we
wouldn't
mind,
I
need
a
motion
and
a
second
I've
got
it.
Let's
cast
our
votes,
it
passes
unanimously.
You
are
the
yes.
A
A
So
I
should
also
say
well
we're
under
office
of
the
mayor
and
on
the
feel-good
items.
I
don't
have
a
resolution
to
this
effect,
but
I
am
very,
very
proud.
As
I
know,
we
all
are
of
Meg
Salyer
and
French
Bryant,
who
were
received
big
awards
last
Thursday
night
at
the
annual
Dean
Magee
awards
and
carried
on
a
strong
tradition
of
our
city,
employees
and
city
council
people
doing
great
things
and
being
recognized
for
such
so
we're
very
proud
of
you.
Yeah.
A
And
finally,
under
office
of
the
mayor,
we
have
item
3b
I,
think
we
are
inclined
at
this
point
to
gravitate
right
now
towards
3b,
which
is
entering
into
executive
session,
to
discuss
one
of
the
one
or
more
of
the
particular
persons
who
have
submitted
applications
for
appointment
to
the
office
of
councilmember
for
Ward
seven.
We
will
I
believe
carry
this
forward
till
the
end
of
the
are
other
business,
but
we
would
cast
our
votes
now
to
go
into
executive
session.
Is.
A
We
have
a
motion
and
a
second
cast.
Your
votes
passes
unanimously.
As
I
stated,
we
will
go
into
executive
session
after
our
other
business.
We
now
move
on
to
item
four
Council

items
7
on
our
council
agenda,
which
is
the
consent

A
A
A
K
A
T
Ahead,
I
just
wanted
to
point
out
that
this
is
awarding
the
the
planning
design
group
for
architectural
services
for
Manuel
pérez
Park
that
will
be
over
there
by
the
hoffman
skate
park,
and
this
is
I've
been
working
with
the
community
on
this
thing
and
we've
gotten
tons
of
input
on
the
design
of
it.
It's
going
to
be
fantastic,
there's
going
to
be
the
Medal
of
Honor
loriel
water
feature
and
just
a
lot
of
great
improvements
over
there.
So
really
happy
to
see
this.
This
project
continue
to
move
along
cool
and.
A
R
Your
honor
AJ
is
a
project.
That's
been
in
the
works
for
a
long
time.
It
shows
the
cooperation
what
can
be
accomplished
between
the
state,
the
Turnpike
Authority
in
Oklahoma
City,
thanks
to
director
Ridley,
who
pioneering
this
force,
it's
a
quality
of
life
issue
for
many
many
residents
in
Ward,
3
Erik.
If
you
would
give
us
a
brief,
update
and
overview
of
what
it
is,
I'll.
U
Be
happy
to
you
so
I
think
most
are
familiar.
The
turnpike
work
that
the
old
Turnpike
Authority
has
begun
in
West,
Oklahoma,
City's
well
underway.
There's
the
acquisition,
the
properties
complete
the
constructions
ongoing
I
mean
it's
expected
to
be
completed
sometime
in
late
2020,
but
with
that
there
was
actually
a
cooperative
agreement
reached
with
Oklahoma
City
to
do
two
miles
of
sera
Road
widening,
and
this
is
going
to
be
from
Southwest
29th,
the
southwest
59th.
It
was
also
a
project
that
was
included
in
the
city's
recently
approved
2017
bond
issue.
U
So
the
item
that
is
on
the
agenda
today
is
the
agreement
with
the
Turnpike
Authority
to
actually
do
the
work
on
Sarah
Road
in
conjunction
with
the
work
on
the
Turnpike
to
have
them
both
finish
at
approximately
the
same
time.
So
we
would
expect.
Has
this
work?
It's
ready
to
go.
Construction
could
begin
as
early
as
this
fall,
but
then
it
would
be
widened
and
opened
in
late
2020
when
the
turnpike
opens
as
well.
A
K
V
Council
city
manager
mayor
it's
great
to
meet
you,
we've
been
up
here
quite
often
over
the
past
two
and
a
half
years,
so
today
is
certainly
a
exciting
day
for
the
future
of
the
project,
and
it's
no
small
feat
to
be
here.
There's
been
a
lot
of
work
that
has
gone
on
not
only
past
two
years
but
I'd
say
the
past.
V
You
know
five
or
ten
years
to
get
this
out
of
the
ground
so
again,
and
it's
not
just
us
here
at
populous,
we
have
a
robust
local
team
of
consultants
that
we've
been
working
with
for
the
duration
of
this
project,
along
with
our
team
in
Kansas
City
and
some
of
our
consultants.
So
again
it's
a
it's
a
very
exciting
time
for
this.
So
before
we
go
over
the
bids,
we
thought
it'd
be
great
to
maybe
just
give
a
little
recap
on
some
of
the
design
elements
of
the
project.
V
There
we
go
so
you
know
years
ago
there
was
a
greet
upon
program
for
this
project.
It
was
the
200,000
square,
foot,
exhibit
hall
a
30,000
square
foot
ballroom
and
the
45,000
square
foot
of
meeting
room
space,
and
so
we
made
an
agreement
with
the
city
and
our
subcommittee
that
we
would
try
our
hardest
to
always
deliver
this
full
program
for
this
project
and
we're
proud
to
say
that
we'd
never
had
to
sacrifice
any
program
elements
through
the
duration
of
design
to
get
this
project
where
it
is
today.
V
Currently
we
have
the
park
the
streetcar
soon
to
be
Convention
Center
and
the
Omni
Hotel
this
was
visioned
years
ago
and
to
see
it
start
to
take
life
today.
Is
certainly
very
powerful,
some
views
looking
at
the
exterior
of
the
building
we've
reviewed
a
lot
of
materials
not
only
with
our
Maps
team,
our
subcommittee,
but
it's
a
it's.
A
combination
of
locally
sourced
terracotta
precast,
concrete
some
metal
panel
to
emphasize
some
of
the
important
features
of
the
interior
and
exterior
of
the
building.
And
again
we
have
large
expanses
of
curtain
wall.
V
Again,
looking
north
on
the
new
robinson,
the
rethought
robinson
boulevard
between
the
park
and
the
convention
center,
some
of
the
interior
spaces,
you
know,
typically,
convention
centers
of
the
past
have
been
kind
of
bland
white
boxes.
We
again
took
extreme
consideration
in
the
material
selection
for
the
inside
of
this
building.
We
developed
a
concept
of
earth,
the
sky,
so
the
ground
level.
The
exhibit
hall
is
reminiscent
of
colors
and
materials
that
you'd
find
on
the
earth.
V
As
you
move
up
to
the
building,
we
pick
we
use
the
pallet
that
you
would
relate
to
the
canopies
of
the
trees
and
the
park.
Then,
as
you
go
up
to
the
ballroom,
we
call
it.
The
painted
sky
ballroom
again,
you'll
see
a
lot
of
white
and
reflective
materials
there.
So
again
in
all
these
renderings,
you
can
see
that
there's
an
abundance
of
natural
light
again
to
allow
for
a
healthy
and
meaningful
experience.
As
you
circulate,
the
building.
V
Hover
on
the
meeting
rooms
for
a
second,
these
meeting
rooms,
this
was
something
that
we
you
know
early
on
in
the
project.
We
actually
met
with
Larry,
Nichols
and
and
his
team
in
Devon
tower,
and
they
have
meeting
rooms
similar
to
this
with
views
out
to
the
park
across
the
street.
It
was
something
that
we
felt
that
we
could
capture
in
this
building.
So
you
can
see
the
the
glass
at
the
end
of
the
meeting
rooms
again,
allowing
those
views
over
the
park
you'll
be
above
the
tree
canopy,
so
something
that's,
certainly
powerful.
V
So
the
bidding
results
I'm
sure
we're
all
aware
that
the
bidding
results
were
favorable
and
you
know
for
a
competitively
bid
project
like
this.
This
is
something
that
we
see
that's
unique
to
the
industry.
Normally,
for
a
project
of
this
size,
we
usually
do
a
design-build
or
a
contractor
at
risk.
So
this
was
a
unique
experience
for
us
as
a
design
team,
and
certainly
the
process
that
we
have
here
in
Oklahoma
City
has
proven
to
be
favorable
for
a
project
of
this
size.
V
Our
project
budget
was
around
194
million
as
a
good-faith
effort
from
our
design
team
because
of
we
all
know
the
economy
kind
of
swings
up
and
down
whether
it's
steel
tariffs
or
the
local
workforce.
We
always
carry
a
contingency
in
our
estimating
feed
just
in
case
something
arises
that
we
did
not
plan
for.
However,
the
bidding
climate
was
favorable
for
this
project.
It
was
a
high-profile
project,
I
know.
In
the
pre-bid
meeting
we
had
over
300
people
attending
and
showing
interest
in
it.
So
again
the
bids
were
received
from
three
companies.
V
V
What
did
we
not
draw
lots
of
factors,
but
when
you
put
the
biz
next
to
each
other-
and
you
see
all
three
firms
come
in
within
this
range,
this
close
to
each
other.
It
really
says
a
lot
about
the
drawing
package,
the
design
team
and
the
work
that
we've
done
with
the
city
and
our
respective
subcommittee
to
put
together
a
tight
package
to
receive
bids
that
are
this
close
to
each
other.
V
V
We
have
exhibit
hall
partitions
the
parking
lot
of
the
road,
the
reconstruction
of
six
street
equipment
in
the
central
utility
plant,
the
exterior
vertical
shade
fins,
an
elevated
climate-controlled
bridge
connection
to
the
Omni
Hotel,
some
ballroom
technology
in
the
ceiling
of
the
ballroom
and
the
assisted
listening
loop
that
we
were
installing
in
all
of
the
meeting
rooms
and
the
ballroom
areas.
So
it
was
decided
at
our
subcommittee
that
they
would
move
forward
with
all
the
alternates,
except
for
alternate
number.
Four
alternate
number
four:
is
the
central
utility
plant
equipment?
V
The
building
is
designed
to
hold
the
equipment
with
the
space
allowed
in
the
building.
However,
there
is
an
ongoing
discussion
between
the
city
of
Oklahoma,
City
and
Veolia
energy
for
Veolia
to
provide
power
to
the
building.
I
believe
that
that
is
close.
It's
not
finalized
yet,
but
it
was
elected
by
our
subcommittee
to
not
move
forward
with
that
alternate,
so
they
will
be
taking
alternates
one
through
eight
and
not
alternate
number
four
in
the
final
bid
price
of
the
building.
One.
V
The
alternate
number
five
I
will
I'll
click
through
these
real,
quick
and
I'll.
Get
to
your
question
when
we
get
to
the
slide,
so
we
haven't
called
out
in
the
diagrams
here
again.
The
first
alternate
was
operable
partitions
for
the
X
Hall
and
again,
since
it
was
favorable
we
are,
we
will
be
accepting
this
alternate
to
subdivide
the
halls
from
one
large
hall
to
four
smaller
halls:
the
parking
lot
to
the
south.
V
Again,
this
was
designed
with
an
expansion
in
mind
down
the
road,
however
I'm,
to
utilize
that
land
today
we
will
have
a
surface
parking
lot
down
there
to
serve
not
only
the
Convention
Center
but
the
park
and
all
the
other
amenities
around
the
site:
the
reconstruction
of
sixth
Street
between
that
parking
lot
and
the
Convention
Center
and
enhanced
fourth
Street
Plaza.
This
is
something
that
we've
been
working
with
the
Omni
team
on
on
how
we
can
better
connect
each
facility,
so
that
will
be.
V
It
will
still
be
an
open
street
with
the
ability
to
close
the
street
with
enhanced,
paving
and
interaction
for
the
pedestrians
on
the
ground
between
the
two
facilities,
the
central
utility
plant.
As
you
can
see,
the
equipment
that's
hidden
in
red,
our
that's
colored
in
red-
that
is
the
alternate,
so
the
space
will
still
be
there
so
that
at
any
time
the
relationship
with
Veolia
would
snag.
I
mean
the
facility
would
need
to
provide
its
own
power
and
energy.
V
You
can
always
add
this
equipment
back
into
the
facility,
and
this
is
the
one
that
the
committee
elected
not
to
take
and
the
vertical
shade
fins
to
answer
your
question.
It
was
something
that
was
designed
to
help
protect
the
building.
However,
architectural
II
it
was
functioning
well
on
its
own,
and
the
mechanical
systems
in
the
building
were
robust
enough
to
basically
handle
heating
and
cooling
loads
that
would
be
placed
on
that
glass.
But
we
feel
from
an
architectural
perspective.
V
V
Alternate
number
six
is
the
bridge
to
the
hotel
again.
This
is
something
that
has
been
under
intense
coordination
with
the
Omni
and
their
design
team.
Smart
bars
in
the
ceiling.
This
is
a
level
of
technology
that
is
unique
to
convention
centers,
where
planners
can
come
in
and
plug
directly
into
the
ceiling
and
tie
into
the
building
automation
systems
and
then,
lastly,
alternate
number
eight.
This
was
an
alternate
because
it
was
brought
to
us
late
in
the
design
process
from
a
local
company
here
in
Oklahoma
City
for
assisted
hearing
loops
and
all
the
public
space.
V
V
V
However,
for
late
completion
that
goes
on
the
opposite
side
as
well,
so
it's
something
that
we
believe
will
fit
nicely
with
the
construction
process
and
how
they
end
up
delivering
the
project.
So,
if
death
being
said,
it's
it's
my
pleasure
to
be
up
here
again,
it's
been
great
building
relationships
with
everybody
here
in
the
city.
V
C
V
V
So
you
see
that
level
of
flexibility
in
every
space
that
we
designed
on
top
of
that
we've
designed
entries
at
specific
points
of
the
building
so
where
you
could
have
multiple
groups
using
the
building
at
one
time,
essentially
eliminating
the
amount
of
days
that
the
building
would
have
to
be
dark.
If
that
makes
sense,
so
it'll
be
up
to
the
operator
and
and
the
the
sound
that
you
know
the
sales
team
on
how
they
want
to
fill
the
building.
V
V
V
W
V
We
went
through
this
study,
I
believe
I,
believe
we
had
this
discussion,
maybe
six
or
seven
months
ago,
it's
not
as
simple
as
putting
it
all
across
the
roof
and
if
that
makes
sense,
but
there
are
areas
on
the
building
that
can
accept
solar.
It
was
cost
prohibitive
to
reinforce
the
structure
over
the
exhibit
hall,
for
example,
to
accept
solar
panels.
But
there
are
areas
above
the
meeting
rooms
and
bar
room,
for
example,
that
can
allow
solar
to
be
attached
to
the
building
I.
J
Think
if
I
could
just
say
on
the
record
what
an
unbelievable
process
this
is
in
that
we've
all
walked
through
over
these
years.
It's
we
appreciate
the
team,
so
much
and
I
think
I
said
when
the
bids
were
opened,
I
was
dancing
and
I
still
am
it's
incredibly
exciting
to
be
able
to
bring
this
project
of
this
quality
and
at
that
level
and
I
just
think
it
speaks
to
the
amount
of
detail
by
populous,
but
also
David
Todd
I
want
to
recognize
you
and
your
staff
subcommittees.
J
V
A
Good
yeah,
certainly
a
milestone
today
is
in
the
maps
three
implementation
process,
and
it's
worth
noting,
there's
also
some
really
good
streetcar
items
on
today's
consent,
docket
as
well.
Thank
you,
okay.
Why
that
resolves?
The
items
that
we
had
pulled
out.
Is
there
any
other
discussion
on
anything
on
the
consent?
Docket?
If
not,
we
will
cast
our
votes
passes
unanimously.
Moving
on
item
8,
the
concurrence
docket.
A
Got
them
motion
in
a
second:
is
there
anything
anybody
wants
to
pull
out,
seeing
none,
seeing
no
discussion
cast
our
votes,
concurrent
stock.
It
passes
unanimously.
That
brings
us
to
item
nine
items
requiring
separate
votes.
We
have
nine,
a
ordinances
on
final
hearing
recommended
for
approval
and
we'll
start
with
number
one
ABC
nine
to
five.
This
is
a
ABC
to
overlay
of
the
c3
commercial
district
at
ninety
one,
forty
eight
north
MacArthur
Boulevard
councilman
Greiner,
as
as.
N
A
I
Your
honor,
this
is
an
ordinance
on
final
hearing
to
rezone
a
certain
piece
of
property
to
a
PUD.
It's
brought
forth
by
the
applicant
three
jacks
LLC,
that's
represented
by
David
box.
It's
to
permit
a
duplex
residential
development;
I,
don't
think!
There's
anybody!
That's
here
in
protest,
I'd
move
for
approval!
The
item
at
this
time,
okay,.
A
T
A
Got
a
motion
in
a
second:
is
there
anyone
here
you'd
like
to
speak
on
this
item,
seeing
none
and
seeing
no
discussion
on
the
council
we'll
cast
our
votes
passes
unanimously.
Now
we're
on
item
9a
for
rezoning,
three:
three:
three:
zero
Northwest
112
Terrace
from
PUD
492
s,
PUD
1046,
councilman
Stonecipher.
Yes,.
I
Thank
you
again,
your
honor.
This
is
an
ordinance
on
final
hearing
to
rezone
a
certain
piece
of
property
to
a
land
unit
development
and
the
applicant
Blake
Bullard
is
here
I,
don't
think,
there's
opposition
like
once
you
come
up
and
speak
to
what
you've
done.
The
applicant
is
requesting
and
I
understand
the
council's
philosophy
on
this
on
emergencies,
but
he
is
asking
for
an
emergency
in
this
instance,
and
he
wants
to
have
the
opportunity
to
explain
why
he
feels
an
emergency
is
over
okay.
E
We
took
over
the
lighthouse,
you
guys
know
the
lighthouse
properties
that
after
and
like
Hefner
Parkway,
we
took
over
the
sand
volleyball
courts
a
year
ago
and
we've
developed
it
into
the
point
where
it's
kind
of
it's.
You
know
it's
it's
a
huge
draw
for
a
lot
of
people.
We
wanted
to
turn
it
into
a
recreational
area
with
a
bar.
We
it's
a
seasonal
business
and
we're
already
in
the
middle
of
summer.
I
have
three
charity
tournaments
in
the
next
month,
two
of
them
for
high
school
girls,
volleyball
and
another
one
is
for
OKC
interns.
E
I
I
He
has
food
trucks
that
come
to
these
events,
and
you
have
to
order
those
months
in
advance
to
make
it
work,
and
so
that's
it's
a
seasonal
business,
since
he
has
been
very
persistent
and
been
down
here
numerous
times
to
meet
with
us
and
talk
about
this
and
he's
trying
to
really
make
this
go
as
a
sole
proprietor
and
an
entrepreneur.
First
of
all,
I'd
like
to
move
for
approval
the
item
and
then
I'll
ask
for
the
emergency.
So
at
this
time,
I'd
move
for
approval
of
the
item.
All.
A
A
I
H
I
E
So
the
I
met
with
Brian
Ferguson
is
the
whole
Creek
homeowners
association
president
and
the
past
president
and
the
treasurer
for
the
coal
creek,
condos,
I,
guess
I
forget
the
name
of
it
right
behind
us.
They
were
concerned
about
the
fence.
That's
been
there
that
the
actual
landlord
has
been
refused
to
replace
for
almost
a
decade
and
we've
replaced
it
on
our
dime.
It's
not
her.
It
wasn't
ours.
We
have
agreed
with
Brian
to
close
off
the
back
gate
during
operational
hours,
so
that
eases
their
concern
with
people
driving
for
the
neighborhood
later
at
night.
V
I
R
Can
count
but
I
do
feel
obligated
to
keep
my
consistency
go
in
with
respect
to
emergency
votes.
I,
don't
feel
that
the
particular
items
that
he
suggested
were
needed
for
an
emergency
meets
the
criteria
for
the
emergency
in
order
to
give
the
public
a
chance
to
digest
this
particular
new
venue,
I'm
gonna
vote
against
the
emergency.
Thank
you.
Okay.
Thank.
I
Q
A
A
J
A
W
A
Have
a
motion
in
a
second
is
anyone
here
wish
to
speak
on
this
item?
Singing
nun
and
no
discussion
on
the
council
will
cast
their
votes
passes
unanimously
and
now
we
are
down
to
not-
and
it's
been
deferred
a
couple
times,
9b
1,
which
is
amendment
to
the
master
design
statement
to
include
screening
along
North,
West
64th,
oh,
and
limit
one
Drive
on
north
independence
and
then
item
9b,
2
ordinance
on
final
hearing
at
3301,
Northwest,
63rd,
rezoning
from
o2
and
r12
s,
PUD
1045.
A
W
X
Sir
mark
faris
29
33
South
Bryan
Avenue.
We
have
met
with
the
neighbors
on
numerous
occasions.
The
last
meeting,
the
discussion
centered
around
the
fence
for
site
proof
fence
that
the
Planning
Department
requested
the
neighbors
prefer
that
the
fence
material
for
lack
of
a
better
term
would
be
plant
material
and
not
a
wood
or
stockade
fence,
and
there
was
emails
and
letters
sent
by
the
neighbors
suggesting
that
the
material
that
the
fence
material
be
plants,
a
living
barrier,
so
to
speak,
and
that
was
their
only
request.
Okay,
anybody.
A
For
approval,
we've
got
a
motion
in
a
second
and
on
this
yeah
and
we're
talking
about
9b1
and
is
there
anyone
who
wishes
to
speak?
Seeing
none
and
no
further
discussion
will
cast
their
votes
on.
That
item
passes
unanimously
and
now
9b
I've
got
a
motion
in
a
second
seeing
no
further
discussion,
we'll
cast
our
votes
and
that
passes
unanimously.
Thank
you,
sir.
A
J
A
Thank
you
any
further

If
not
I'd,
entertain
a
motion
to
adopt
a
resolution
declaring
these
structures
to
be
dilapidated,
we've
got
a

in
a

any
further

that
were
stricken
from
the

a

of

At

beginning
of
the
meeting,
seeing
a

from
the
councilor
from
the

I'd
entertain

are
abandoned.
A
K
Gallery
is
here
this
morning
to
summarize
the
budget
just
to
set
this
out
for
you.
It's
his
presentations.
Gonna
look
a
lot
like
the
presentation
that
he
did
several
weeks
ago,
but
he
will
highlight
the
changes
for
this
year's
budget
and
then
at
the
request
of
Councilman
Stonecipher.
There
is
an
amendment
that
will
be
on
on
it
with
that.
Doug
dollar
is
here
good.
Y
Morning,
mayor
and
council
I'm
pleased
to
be
here
to
present
the
FY
19
budget
for
your
consideration.
I
will
just
start
off
with
a
look
at
our
revenue.
Our
total
budget,
one
point:
five:
six
billion
dollars
largest
recurring
revenue
sources,
taxes
total
over
653
million
or
about
42%
of
the
total
sales
tax.
The
largest
source
in
the
category,
is
over
465
million
of
that
when
looking
at
the
total
budget,
the
taxes
category
also
includes
property
taxes
which
again
in
Oklahoma,
we
can
only
use
for
debt
service
and
for
judgments.
Y
So
that
goes
to
pay
off
our
general
obligation
bonds
and
is
about
93
million
dollars.
I'm
going
to
skip
over
the
smaller
revenue
sources
to
just
jump
to
a
fund
balance
fund
balance
represents
the
second
largest
revenue
source
of
the
this
year.
At
thirty
seven
point:
four
million
percent
or
five
hundred
eighty
three
million
dollars
and
maps
three
again,
a
very
significant
piece
of
that
four
hundred,
thirty
seven
point:
five
million
dollars
and
because
of
that
large
size
of
fun
balanced
in
maps,
three,
we
broke
that
out
separately.
Y
Y
But
it's
about
one-eighth
the
size
of
maps,
three
fund
balance
at
thirty
seven
point:
eight
million
dollars
as
we
look
at
our
operating
portion
of
the
budget
revenue
totals
701
million
dollars
again
taxes,
the
largest
category,
with
sales
tax
being
the
biggest
as
well
at
three
hundred
fifty
four
million
dollars
fees
and
charges
are
the
next
largest
source
in
the
operating
budget
account
for
about
twenty
six
percent
of
the
operating
budget
and
the
remaining
areas.
Totaled
eight
point:
three
percent:
well,
we
Zone
zoom
in
on
the
general
fund.
Again,
the
distribution
is
somewhat
similar.
Y
Taxes
make
up
sixty
nine
point.
Four
percent
of
the
total
sales
tax
is
fifty
five
point:
five
percent
of
the
total
of
two
hundred
and
fifty
five
million
dollars
and
the
primary
source
in
the
other
tax
it's
category
than
in
addition
to
sales
taxes
are
use
tax,
which
we
have
at
fifty
point:
seven
million
dollars
or
eleven
percent
of
the
general
fund.
The
other
parts
of
the
general
fund
make
up
about
thirty
percent
of
our
total
revenue.
Y
So
when
we
turn
to
the
expenditure
side
of
the
budget
again
it
matches
up
one
point:
five,
six
billion
dollars
and
we've
put
here
the
categories
that
are
required
by
the
municipal
budget
act.
Normally
personal
services
is
the
largest
category.
It's
thirty
two
point
one
percent,
but
this
year,
capital
outlay
is
the
largest
at
over
forty
one
percent,
again
maps.
Three
we've
split
out,
so
you
can
see
how
significant
it
is
and
again
that's
the
total
remainder
in
the
maps.
Three
sales
tax.
Y
It
doesn't
necessarily
mean
that
they're
going
to
spend
all
of
that
next
year,
but
they
have
the
authority
to
if
they
need
to
and
and
they
have
the
encumbrances
like
the
Convention
Center
that
was
just
awarded
today.
We've
got
all
of
that
encumbered
and
reserved.
So
that's
available
as
that
comprar
jecht
goes
through
this
process,
but.
Y
As
we
look
at
the
general
fund
expenditures
by
area
again,
you
can
see
public
safety
is
our
largest
percentage
of
our
general
fund
budget.
Sixty
four
point:
one
percent:
that's
two
hundred
ninety
four
point:
seven
million
dollars
general
government
comes
in
at
eight
point:
two
percent:
that's
because
all
general
government
functions
are
located
in
the
general
fund.
Public
services
are
the
second
largest
category
at
eighteen
point:
four
percent
that
includes
Public
Works
development
services
and
planning
and
finally,
culture
and
recreation.
Y
The
general
fund
is
made
up
to
the
Parks
and
Recreation
Department
and
the
cost
for
operating
the
Cox
Convention
Center
in
the
Chesapeake
arena.
So
some
of
the
significant
changes
that
are
in
the
FY
19
budget
and
public
transportation
in
parking
we've
added
operations
for
the
streetcar
Sunday
bus
service
and
an
additional
route
for
night
service
route.
22
is
being
added
for
night
service
in
Parks
and
Recreation.
Y
We
continue
to
look
to
leverage
public-private
partnerships
with
the
operations
of
the
scissortail
park
funded
next
year
through
the
scissortail
Park
Foundation,
and
we
begin
contracting
out
operations
of
the
Civic
Center
next
year
through
the
Civic
Center
foundation
in
Public
Works.
We've
added
18
positions,
including
12,
to
take
over
utility
cut
repairs
and
five
to
help
manage
projects
under
the
better
streets,
safer
city,
sales,
tax
and
Geo
bond
issue.
Development
services
is
adding
ten
positions
with
additions
coming
in
each
of
their
divisions.
Y
Airports
is
adding
seven
positions
in
various
areas
and
the
amendment
that
you'll
be
considering
in
just
a
few
moments
would
add
a
community
service
representative
in
municipal
courts,
as
suggested
by
Councilman
Stonecipher
last
week.
That
would
be
in
addition
to
two
records
control
clerk's
that
were
included
in
the
proposed
budget
for
municipal
courts.
Also
in
public
publicness
are
also
in
Parks
and
Recreation.
Y
We
had
four
positions
for
trails,
maintenance
and
for
field
maintenance
at
the
new
Lightning
Creek
fields,
also
at
wheeler
park
and
stars-and-stripes
part,
and
finally,
it
seems
a
little
bit
like
an
afterthought,
because
we've
already
started
down
this
path
in
the
current
year,
but
FY
19
contains
a
full
year
of
funding
for
the
189
positions
added
under
the
quarter.
Cent
sales
tax
increase
that
went
into
effect
January
1st
the
full
year
of
funding
this
year
adds
almost
eleven
million
dollars
to
the
general
fund
budget.
Again,
we
budgeted
that
for
four
months
in
the
current
year.
Y
This
adds
the
other
eight
for
that
funding
so
again
trying
to
deliver
to
our
citizens.
What
we've
told
them
we're
going
to
do
with
that
money.
We
talked
at
the
presentations
of
the
number
of
the
large
departments
presented
over
the
last
five
weeks.
Many
of
them
talked
also
about
their
trust
budgets,
not
just
their
City
budgets,
this
the
budget
that
is
before
you
is
just
for
the
city
side
of
our
operation.
Y
So
it
does
not
include
trust
budgets
such
as
aqua,
where
they
have
the
capital
for
the
lake
otoko
pipeline
or
the
airport
trust
the
terminal
expansion
will
be
bringing
to
you
in
at
your
next
meeting,
the
budget
for
the
PPA
and
the
MFA,
and
those
are
also
separate
trusts,
but
just
wanted
to
make
clear
again.
This
is
just
for
the
city
portion
of
the
budget
that
you
have
before
you
and
just
again.
In
summary,
we're
looking
at
one
point:
five:
six
billion
dollars:
you'll
note!
Y
If
you
compare
this
slide
to
what
I
showed
the
first
week
when
we
presented
a
budget,
a
slightly
different
figure
for
the
FY
18
budget,
and
that's
simply
because
we
had
an
amendment
that
was
adopted
a
couple
of
weeks
ago
that
changed
the
FY
18
budget
to
include
the
maps
for
kids
trust
coming
in
back
to
the
city,
zoo
sales,
tax,
hotel-motel
tax,
a
couple
other
things
work
or
amended
in
the
FY
18
budget,
and
then
just
one
other
note.
What
you've
got
before
you
is
it
attached
to.
Y
Y
The
difference
between
those
two
is
really
on
one
page
page
23
of
the
attachment
is
the
general
fund,
where
we
have
the
total
budget
for
municipal
courts
and
a
total
budget
for
non-departmental
we'd
make
an
addition
to
municipal
courts
and
subtract
that
out
of
non-departmental,
so
the
bottom
line
stays
exactly
the
same
for
the
general
fund.
I'd
be
happy
to
answer
any
questions.
If
you
have
any
on
the
budget.
A
Any
questions
for
Doug
before
we
do.
You
have
some
citizens
that
want
to
speak
on
the
budget,
so
we
can
proceed
to
that
before
we
move
on,
but
any
questions
for
Doug
while
he's
stand-in
there.
Okay,
thank
you
Doug
now.
This
is
the
final
we've
had
several
public
hearings
on
the
FY
2018
2019
budget.
This
is
final
one
and
the
final
opportunity
for
citizens
to
be
heard
and
I
believe
we
are
joined
by
the
Honorable
Forrest
Bennett,
who
would
like
to
speak
state
representative
from
South
Oklahoma
City.
Z
This
is
not
a
day
for
us
or
for
the
mayor
or
for
any
elected
official,
but
the
people
who
this
will
greatly
impact
will
probably
never
come
to
this
room
and
have
an
opportunity
to
speak.
So
I
wanted
to
speak
on
their
behalf
and
thank
you
in
advance
for
making
this
happen
for
them.
We
are
currently
as
far
as
I
know
the
largest
city
in
the
United
States,
that
does
not
have
Sunday
transit
service.
Z
Many
of
the
people
who
rely
on
public
transit
in
Oklahoma
City
are
hourly
wage
workers
and
shift
job
workers.
Those
jobs,
don't
stop
on
Sundays.
That
work
is
available
on
Sundays
and
what
we're
going
to
be
doing
today
through
approval
of
this
is
giving
people
the
opportunity
to
make
economic
advances
for
themselves
and
for
their
families
and
I
just
it
is.
Z
It
is
humbling
for
me,
as
somebody
who
works
at
23rd
and
Lincoln,
to
witness
a
government
be
responsive
to
its
citizens
and
actually
get
sizeable
things
done
for
them
in
a
timely
manner,
and
though
this
could
not
have
come
soon
enough.
It
is
a
great
first
step.
This
does
not
mean
I
will
not
continue
to
be
a
thorn
in
your
side.
Mr.
mayor
public.
Z
Getting
that
getting
that
streetcar
down
to
the
south
side,
but
this
is
a
wonderful,
wonderful,
first
step
and
on
behalf
of
the
thousands
of
people
with
whom
I
ride
the
bus
and
those
who
rely
on
public
transit
to
make
the
American
dream
come
true
for
themselves
and
for
their
families.
I.
Thank
you
very,
very
much
representative.
H
Z
Is
I
too,
would
love
to
have
some
some
additional
members
of
the
house
instead
of
support
me
in
shouting
about
that
currently
I'm,
one
of
a
few
that
yells
and
to
avoid,
but
soon
enough,
we
will
change
this
and
I
think
when,
when
city
governments
like
yours,
take
incredible
steps
in
the
right
direction
that
it
will
encourage
the
rest
of
us
to
do
the
same.
Thank
you.
Thank
you
very
much,
representative
Bennett.
Oh.
Z
C
No,
but
thank
you
for
coming
down
and
speaking
about
this,
it's
an
opportunity
for
us
to
raise
the
awareness
for
all
citizens,
though
it's
within
their
hands,
who
increase
to
continue
to
increase
the
coverage
and
the
frequency
above
service
by
utilizing
the
bus
service.
That's
our
only
limitation
is
you
know,
lack
of
numbers
to
support
an
increase
in
in
frequency
and
coverage,
so
those
citizens
out
there
in
Oklahoma
City,
who
want
to
see
and
expand
a
continuing
expanding
bus
service.
All
they
have
to
do
is
join
us.
Venner
join
us
at
the
bus.
Z
And
I
haven't
either
and
I
you're
right
and
I
just
want
to
reiterate
that
steps
like
this
give
people
like
myself
and
constituents
like
Caleb,
Savage
and
Jo
Beth
Hammond,
who
also
rely
on
the
bus.
It
gives
us
the
kind
of
hope
and
encouragement
that
will
get
us
to
be
energized
in
encouraging
our
friends
to
follow
the
public
transit
route
as
well.
So
thank
you
for
your
leadership.
Thank
you
for
holding
state
leaders
feet
to
the
fire
on
this
issue
as
well,
because
it's
it's
beyond
time
that
we've
done
something
about
it.
Z
A
Way,
I
think
yeah
Thank
You
representative.
We
thank
you
for
your
patience
as
well,
but
we
trust
that
the
hour
you
spent
here
was
actually
a
refreshing
change
of
pace
from
the
dysfunction
of
your
other
jobs.
So,
as
he
mentioned,
we
are
also
joined
by
khutba
trustee
James
Cooper
James
did
you
wish
to
say
anything
you
don't
have
to
I.
AA
Good

everyone
James

Northwest,

live
in
the
historic
sayo
district,
councilman
Shadid,
you
represented
me
since
2011,
and
you
have
advocated
sorry
you've
advocated
for
this
for
a
long
time,
and
even
though
we've
had
our
disagreements,
thank
you
and
Thank
You
Councilwoman
Salyer
for
helping
push
this
Mayor
Holt
city
manager,
couch
and
the
rest
of
the
City
Council
members
I
have
not
had
the
honor
to
meet.
Thank
you.
This
means
a
lot
I
just
want
to
double
down
on
everything
that
representative
Bennett
just
said.
AA
This
is
about
people
who
work
in
our
service
industry
who
need
to
get
to
work
and,
as
someone
who's
been
a
server
at
teach
middle
school
now,
but
as
someone
who's
been
a
server
I
know
that
very
often
people
lose
their
jobs
because
they
don't
have
reliable
public
transportation
and
what
you
all
have
just
done
here
today
has
given
them
foundation.
So,
thank
you
very
much
and
thank
you
for
the
honor
of
serving
with
embarking
with
coppice
sorry.
This
is
very
emotional
for
me.
Thank
you
very
much.

I
just
want
to
thank
this
council
and
this
city
for
being
willing
to
vote
on
this
issue
of
Sunday
bus
service
and
also
increased
nighttime
service
on
the
22.
I.
Do
firmly
believe
that
the
22,
which
connects
the
Greyhound
station
on
the
southeast
side
of
downtown
to
downtown
since
our
downtown
Oklahoma
City,
could
definitely
benefit
from
night
time.
Service.
AB
I
myself
ran
into
that
problem
a
few
weeks
ago.
Also
I
want
to
double
down
on
everything.
The
previous
speakers
have
said.
Regarding
the
Sunday
service,
this
is
huge
for
Oklahoma,
City
I
know
it
hasn't
had
any
sort
of
Sunday
bus
service
in
a
number
of
years
ever
since
the
embark
link
had
to
be
dropped
due
to
previous
budgetary
constraints.
So
thank
you
again
and
I
appreciate
everything
you
guys
are
doing.
AB
W
Can
I
say
this
has
been
a
long
road,
but
I
would
say
just
as
a
word
of
caution,
I
think
that
we
still
will
have
one
of
the
largest
discrepancies
in
level
of
service
between
rail
and
bus
in
the
country.
I
think
if
we
hadn't
done
this
and
done
Sunday
bus
service,
I,
think
a
title,
6
lawsuit
against
the
city
would
have
been
a
slam.
Dunk
I
think
it's
a
much
greater
level
of
discrepancy
in
level
of
service
than
you
saw
in
Atlanta
and
Los
Angeles
and
their
title
six
lawsuits.
W
So
we
approved
four
million
dollars
for
the
streetcar
I'm
glad
that
we're
long
ger,
the
largest
city
in
America,
without
Sunday
bus
service,
but
just
a
word
of
caution.
We
cannot
continue
to
have
that
level
of
discrepancy
in
level
of
service
between
streetcar
riders,
who
are
generally
wealthier
and
of
one
ethnicity
and
bus
riders
who
are
generally
of
different
ethnicities
and
different
socioeconomic
classes.
You
can't
have
12
minute
frequencies
on
rail
and
once
an
hour
on
bus,
you
can't
run
it.
W
You
know
13
hours
a
day
on
the
streetcar
and
once
an
hour
on
the
bus,
you
can't
have
beautiful
Taj
Mahal
streetcar
stops
that
protect
your
transit
riders
from
all
the
weather
elements
in
Oklahoma
City,
and
then
have
your
bus
riders
sitting
on
two
by
fours
that
are
40
years
old
uneven
and
have
splinters
in
them
and
don't
protect
the
writer
in
any
fashion
and
do
not
treat
them
with
the
dignity
they
reserved
deserve.
Thanks.
W
A
I
Honor
this
position
I'm
really
excited
about
it
because
and
I
think
I
speak
on
behalf
of
everybody
on
the
Judiciary
Committee
the
last
three
years.
We've
worked
really
hard
to
make
some
improvements
in
the
court
system
to
be
more
fair,
to
be
more
efficient
and
and
with
this
addition,
I
believe
we
will
be
more
cost
efficient
and
so
I
think
this
is
a
win-win
for
the
city.
It's
worked
so
far
with
our
first
coordinator
and
I'm
hopeful
that,
with
the
second,
it
will
be
even
much
better,
so
I've
moved
the
amendment
or
approval
okay.
A
We've
got
a
motion
in
a
second
on
the
amendment.
Are
there
any?
Is
there
any
discussion
on
the
amendment
seeing
that
will
cast
their
votes
passes
unanimously?
Now
we're
on
item
9,
f3
resolution
adopting
the
fiscal
year,
2019
annual
budget
establishing
revenue
and
expenditure
budgets
for
all
city
departments,
we've
got
a
motion
got
a
second.
Is
there
any
discussion
from
members
of
the
council?
A
K
You
very
confident
so
one
of
the
things
I
think
we've
tried
to
do
as
a
council
and
the
staffs
tried
to
reflect
the
council's
desire
to
do
that
is
respond
to
the
citizens
needs
from
citizen
survey
and
amongst
the
the
Geo
package
we
did
last
year,
the
the
quarter,
cent
sales
tax
and
what
we
were
able
to
accomplish
in
this
budget.
Well
we're
not
getting
everything
down,
but
we're
sure
taking
some
positive
steps
toward
that
end.
So
thank
you
great.
A
Any
any
further
discussion
say:
none
will
cast
our
votes
on.
The
resolution
on
the
budget
resolution
passes
unanimously
all
right.
Moving
on
to
item
9,
G
1.
This
is
going
to
be
a
wrestler,
it's
being
introduced
today.
A
resolution
set
for
final
hearing
on
June
19th
regarding
appropriations
for
the
fire
department
and
I
believe
we
will
begin
with
a
public
hearing
in
a
presentation
from
donor
right.
K
We
have
two
resolutions
of
public
hearings
on
today.
We
have
a
three-quarter
cent
sales
tax
was
passed
in
the
late
80s
and
as
a
for
public
safety,
half
of
that
goes
to
police
half
that
goes
to
fire
and
as
a
part
of
that
each
year
we
present
a
resolution
to
clearly
state
what
those
funds
are
going
to
be
used
for,
and
so
that's
a
two
meeting
process
to
do
that.
Public
you're
into
both
times
they'll
be
introduced
today,
hopefully
adopted
in
two
weeks.
Y
Pretty
much
it's,
it's
really
they're
very
similar
items
with
the
budget
that
you
just
adopted.
We
set
the
total
budget
police
and
fire
sales
tax
that
three
quarter
cent
sales
tax
that
Mister
couch
mentioned
as
during
during
the
early
90s,
there
was
a
journal
entry
of
judgment.
There
was
some
ambiguity
about
how
some
of
the
sales
tax
should
be
implemented.
This
journal
entry
of
judgment
clarified
how
that
would
be
handled,
and
one
of
the
aspects
of
that
is.
We
have
to
clearly
state.
Y
This
is
how
counsel
and
the
city
intend
to
spend
each
of
those
dollars
in
that
police
and
fire
sales
tax,
and
so
what
you
see
before
you,
for
both
police
and
for
fire,
is
a
list
of
projects
that
they
intend
to
undertake
in
the
coming
year
that
they'll
use
that
45
46
million
dollars
in
their
sales
tax
funds
and
what
they
will
fund
and
so
you'll
see
for
police
observing
I
guess
we
have
fire.
First,
fire
is
202
uniformed
positions,
as
well
as
some
equipment.
Y
There'll
be
some
civilian
positions,
advanced
life
support,
they're,
helping
with
helping
supplement
the
geo
bonds
with
construction.
A
couple
of
fire
stations
also
doing
facility
repairs
and
some
funds,
if
our
overages,
so
they
can
bring
in
recruits
earlier,
get
them
started
before
the
vacancies
actually
appear
and
can
have
those
guys
ready
to
go
as
soon
as
those
vacancies
open
up
and
so.
Similarly,
on
the
police
side,
it
funds
219
uniformed
positions.
There
are
a
number
of
civilian
positions
as
well
they're
doing
some
capital.
Y
They
also
have
an
overage
recruit
program
again,
so
they
can
get
guys
started
before
they
have
vacancies
and
several
other
things.
We
happy
to
answer
any
questions,
or
we
can
also
if
the
police
and
fire
chief
can
probably
go
into
more
detail
about
some
of
the
specifics
of
the
activity
that
they're
undertaking.
If
you
have
specific
questions
there
as
part
of
the
journal
entry
of
judgment,
not
only
does
council
approve
these
projects
that
they
expect
the
iron
police
to
undertake
is,
then
we
will
do
an
audit
of
everything
that
is
spent.
Y
So
when
we
finish
up
this
fiscal
year,
we'll
begin
doing
a
compilation
of
everything
that
was
spent
in
the
fire
and
police
sales
tax.
Our
city
auditor's
office,
reviews
that
and
we'll
bring
back
a
report
to
you
that
shows
where
we
did
or
if
we,
if,
for
some
reason
we
didn't
comply
with
what
was
laid
out
here,
we'll
identify
each
of
those
things
we
haven't
had
any
issues
in
the
past.
We
don't
expect
any,
but
every
year
we
check
on
it
to
make
sure
we
did
things.
A
A
A
motion
in
a
second
any
discussion
on
it,
seeing
none
will
cast
their
votes
passes
unanimously.
That'll
bring
us
to
item
9,
H
1,
the
public
hearing
for
the
resolution
regarding
police,
which
Doug
just
briefed
on.
Are
there
any
citizens
who
wish
to
be
heard
in
regards
to
this?
Under
the
public
hearing,
seeing
none,
we've
got
a
motion
and
a
second
on
item
9
H
2.
The
resolution
which
is
being
introduced
today
set
for
final
hearing
on
June
19th.
Is
there
any
further
discussion
seeing
none
will
cast
their
votes
passes
unanimously?
A
AC
Welcome
thank
you
good
morning.
The
ethics
policy
was
originally
adopted
by
the
City
Council
in
2006
to
promote
an
ethical
culture
and
amplify
the
code
of
conduct.
That's
in
the
city's
personnel
policies.
Now
the
ethics
policies
are
really
user.
Friendly
document
explains
why
the
code
of
conduct
policies
are
in
place
and
provides
examples
of
the
kinds
of
ethical
situations
that
can
arise
in
a
workplace.
The
ethics
policy
also
establishes
the
ethics
hotline,
which
is
administered
out
of
the
city
auditor's
office
that
provides
employees
with
a
anonymous
means
of
reporting
suspected
fraudulent
behavior.
AC
The
policy
also
establishes
the
ethics
committee.
That
committee
has
been
meets
to
discuss
ethical
concerns,
provide
guidance
and
answer.
Questions
arise
from
the
department's.
The
ethics
committee
is
comprised
of
representatives
from
the
counselor's
office,
the
city
manager's
office,
the
personnel
department
and
the
city
auditor's
office.
AC
The
personnel
policies,
including
the
code
of
conduct,
were
last
revised
in
2017
that
prompted
the
Ethics
Committee
to
update
the
ethics
policy,
to
maintain
consistency
with
the
code
of
conduct.
Now
the
major
changes
to
the
ethics
policy
are
clarifying
allowable
secondary
employment
for
part-time
and
full-time
employees,
bringing
the
policy
into
alignment
with
state
statutes
that
govern
the
city,
employees,
doing
business
with
the
city,
expanding
on
guidance
to
employees,
to
identify
and
address
potential
conflicts
of
interest,
expanding
on
policies
governing
social
media
and
reinforcing
policies
regarding
a
access
use
and
disclosure
of
confidential
information.
Y
A
AE
Council,
this
is
a
change
in
policy.
Basically,
it
redefines
what
a
city-owned
vehicle
is
before
we
just
had.
It
is
that
when
the
city
had
purchased
it,
we
had
to
include
one
where
we
also
leased
vehicles.
We
do
lease
and
we
want
to
hold
officers
responsible
for
how
those
are
used.
The
other
big
part
of
it
is
equipment.
That's
left
in
vehicles.
It
defines
a
city
in
East,
a
firearm.
AE
This
can't
be
left
in
a
in
a
city-owned
vehicle,
while
off-duty
a
city
or
personal,
a
city
or
personal
farm
can't
be
left
at
a
city-owned
vehicle
while
off-duty.
It
also
defines
other
equipment
that
city-owned
equipment
can't
be
left
in
any
any
any
vehicle,
personal
or
city-owned
while
off-duty.
So
we
ran
into
some
problems
with
that.
So
basically
just
defines
what
you
can
and
can't
leave
in
your
vehicle
and
redefines
what
a
city
vehicle
actually
is.
A
K
A
Any
questions
on
that
any
discussion,
any
motions
I've
got
a
motion
in
a
second
seeing.
No
discussion
will
cast
their
votes
passes
unanimously,
which
brings
us
to
item
9,
L
resolution
authorizing
and
directing
the
municipal
councillor
to
negotiate
a
legal
service
contract
on
behalf
of
the
city
for
the
purpose
of
filing
litigation
in
response
to
the
opioid
epidemic,
and
we
do
have
some
citizens
to
be
heard.
So
we
might
start
there.
A
AF
Littler
executive
director
of
OKC
metro
alliance,
that
includes
first
step
in
the
PIAA
and
I,
reside
at
30,
608
chickasaw,
Drive,
Edmond
Oklahoma.
Thank
you
to
the
council
in
the
city
for
all
your
support
of
our
programs
as
many
others
throughout
the
city,
the
homeless,
Alliance
social
services
grant
CIT
officers
and
the
many
things
you
do
to
support
recovery
in
our
community.
AF
Opioids
are
drugs
with
good
benefits.
When
you
need
them,
anyone
who's
had
surgery
or
Majel
dinner.
Work
would
agree
right,
unfortunately,
because
they
are
commonly
prescribed.
Many
people
in
our
community
are
exposed
to
these
powerful
drugs
addictions
to
opioids
cut
across
all
demographic
groups,
regardless
of
race
or
economic
status.
I'm
sure
many
of
you
know,
stories
of
people
who
have
been
entrapped
in
these
drugs
addiction
and
even
non
prescription
use
can
have
unintended
and
devastating
consequences
for
individuals
and
their
families,
including
crime,
car
serration,
but
worse,
most
seriously,
premature
death.
AF
Our
Attorney
General
Mike
hunter
reported
that
more
people
died
from
opioid
overdose
in
the
u.s.
last
year
than
died
in
the
Vietnam
War.
That's
why
we're
calling
it
an
epidemic?
It's
hard
to
get
my
head
around.
That
number
that's
why
addressing
access
is
important.
Reducing
access
is
a
good
prevention
method.
It's
easy
for
people
to
get
these
drugs
for
non-medical
reasons.
We
also
need
to
address
access
to
addiction,
treatment
and
recovery
services
for
people
who
need
them.
We're
really
losing
a
generation.
AF
Austan
box
was
a
no
you
football
player
who
died
of
an
overdose
of
opioids.
His
mother
toured
first
step
last
year,
as
we
walked
around
the
facility
she
said
I
wish
Austin
would
have
had
the
opportunity
to
come
to
this
program,
but
she
did
not
know
about
his
addiction
before
its
death.
Our
reason
for
existing
is
really
to
save
lives.
I'm
talking
about
our
agency,
but
I,
know
that
you
guys
feel
the
same
way
and
also
to
reunite
families
whatever
the
council.
Does
that
supports
that
effort.
AG
It
was
actually
super
early
and
I
wrote
my
address
incorrect
I
just
moved
last
weekend,
so
it's
a
1
1
7
1,
3,
Ashford,
Drive,
Yukon,
Oklahoma,
7,
3,
0,
9
9,
but
a
Courtney
Hamilton
I,
just
like
to
double
down
on
what
Connie
had
mentioned
earlier.
I
just
graduated
from
oh
you
and
Social
Work
with
masters
and
was
interning
with
Metro
Alliance
this
past
semester
and
I
just
like
to
speak
really
to
two
key
impacts
of
addiction
and
that's
the
family
impact
in
the
financial
impact.
AG
Also,
as
many
of
you
probably
know,
Oklahoma
has
the
highest
rate
of
incarceration
among
women,
compromising
27
percent
of
Oklahoma
County's
jail
admissions,
which
is
nearly
double
the
rate
nationally,
and
we
did
a
study
back
in
early
May.
We
asked
all
of
our
men
at
first,
but
what
what
kinds
of
charges
they
were
facing?
What
time
and
fines
they
were
up
against
if
they
were
unable
to
be
their
court
cases
and
they
reported
out
of
the
61
clients.
AG
There
were
32
men
that
faced
a
combined
at
299
years,
up
to
life
imprisonment
and
up
to
four
hundred
and
forty-one
thousand
dollars
in
fines,
and
a
lot
of
this
is
due
to
opioid
addiction
and
beyond,
just
these
men
and
that
are
affected.
We
also
have
84
children,
whose
fathers
at
first
step
could
have
are
impacted
and
could
be
impacted
further
if
they
are
incarcerated
or
faced.
AG
AH
Barry
I
live
at
72
49
Skylark
Court
I
am
a
member
of
the
wellness
now
mental
health
and
addiction
recovery
workgroup
along
with
the
other
two
ladies
sitting
back
there
with
me,
they're
going
to
speak
today.
But
the
reason
for
our
involvement
in
this
group
is
because
of
the
impact
that
drugs
and
alcohol
have
had
on
the
lives
of
our
friends
and
family
members,
and
many
people
that
we
love
specifically
today.
I
will
share
about
the
wreckage
that
opioids
have
had
because
of
my
ex-husband's
progressive
struggles
with
addiction.
AH
It
led
to
the
dissolution
of
my
marriage.
When
my
daughter
was
five
as
his
addiction
continued
to
progress.
It
resulted
in
him
stealing
a
prescription
pad
to
get
access
to
the
medicines
that
had
he
had
become
dependent
upon
subsequent
to
our
divorce.
His
involvement
in
criminal
activities
continued
to
increase
as
his
addiction
spiraled
out
of
control,
and
when
my
daughter
was
in
middle
school,
it
resulted
in
him
being
sent
to
prison.
So
what
did
this
mean
for
our
family?
And
what
does
this
mean
for
her?
AH
He
was
unable
to
be
a
consistent
for
the
father
to
her,
both
emotionally
physically
and
financially.
He
did
not
take
her
to
school,
not
one
day
of
her
whole
entire
life,
because
he
was
never
able
to
stay
sober
long
enough
to
be
able
to
drive
or
have
her
unsupervised.
He
was
not
able
to
take
her
to
her
school
activities
and
he
was
not
able
to
consistently
provide
any
amount
of
child
support
that
creates
an
equities
for
her
with
her
peers.
As
far
as
the
things
that
we
are
able
to
afford
to
do.
AH
It
also
resulted
in
in
middle
school
when
she
shared
this,
that
he
had
gone
to
prison
with
one
friend,
because
she
was
embarrassed
and
humiliated.
The
friend
broke
her
confidence,
and
so
she
experienced
humiliation
and
shame
from
her
peers
because
her
dad
was
in
prison.
She
was
in
a
school
where
no,
you
know
that
was
not
an
experience
common
to
her.
What
I
know
this
means
for
her
is
these
things
her
genetics,
combined
with
her
experience,
sets
her
up
to
have
these
same
problems
and
it
all
began
when
he
was
14.
AH
He
played
sports.
He
was
a
you
know,
good
kid
played
sports
and
had
an
injury,
and
he
when
he
took
these
medications
that
had
a
response
in
him.
That's
very
different.
I
was
given
these
medications
for
an
injury,
and
they
made
me
sick.
It
made
me
wanna
puke
and
make
me
want
to
crawl
out
of
my
skin.
That's
not
the
way,
they
impacted
him.
AH
As
a
result,
it
set
him
off
on
a
lifelong
cycle
called
chasing
the
scream
or
whatever,
where
he
would
continue
to
have
issues
with
trying
to
get
these
medications
I'm,
not
suggesting
that
we
eradicate
pain
medications.
We
definitely
need
them
when
we
are
in
pain,
but
they
are
given
way
too
freely.
He
was
able
to
get
them
very
easily
and
he
was
not
able
to
come
off
them
very
easily
and
not
giving
I
mean
what
what
we
need
to
do
is
to
be
more
responsible
by
not
giving
them
these
medications
so
freely.
AH
Patient
should
be
screened
for
history
of
addiction
or
family
histories
of
addiction.
We
need
to
provide
proper
education
to
people
before
we
give
in
these
medications,
and
let
them
know
that
these
are
Dane.
These
can
be
dangerous
and
what
are
the
risk
factors
for
addiction
and,
most
importantly,
we
need
to
provide
people
with
access,
information
and
access
on
how
they
can,
if
they
find
that
they
have
become
addicted,
how
they
can
get
help
so
that
they
can
come
off
them
safely.
AH
And
if
you
have
not
read
the
book
dreamland
by
Sam,
kiani's
I
would
suggest.
Actually
I
would
implore
that
you
do
so.
It
tells
the
story
of
how
this
opioid
epidemic
has
played
out
in
Ohio,
but
Oklahoma
City
is
not
far
behind,
as
we
have
cracked
down
on
the
legal
access
to
these
medications
without
providing
people
with
care
and
treatment
resources
to
come
off
of
them.
AH
We
have
a
mess
to
clean
up
and
there
will
be
a
cost
to
that.
So
I
would
request
that
we
vote
Yes
to
join
in
the
suit
or
whatever
we
need
to
do
to
get
some
funding
so
that
we
can
provide
people
some
access
to
some
resources.
Some
of
the
cities
and
states
are
doing
a
one
cent
sales
tax
per
pill,
but
we're
going
to
have
to
have
some
resources
that
we
don't
currently
have.
Thank
you,
Sara
all.

the
opioid

here
in

Okay.
With
this
we
can
do
better.
The
horrific
epidemic
of
opioid
abuse
is
taking
innocent

My
father's
addiction
to
opioids
took
away
sweet
moments
of
my
childhood
that
some
might
think
that
are
just
simple,
like
daddy-daughter
dances,
doughnuts
with
dads
and
just
having
a
father
figure
in
my
life.
Instead
I
grew
up
fast
and
went
through
battles
of
my
own,
like
breaking
the
chains
of
generational
addiction
cycles.

I'm
not
here
to
have
people
feel
bad
about
me
about
my
story,
and
my
story
really
is
an
uncommon
or
special.
Unfortunately,
this
is
happening.
A
lot
around
America
and
especially
in
the
state
of
Oklahoma
bottom
line,
is
the
pharmakom
of
companies
have
held
fuel
to
this
epidemic
and
if
nothing
gets
done,
the
problem
will
only
worsen

thousands
of
more
people
will
die
each

while

make
billions
at

A
AJ
Name
is
Lacey
Callahan
I
reside
at
3125,
Greenwood
Court,
Norman,
Oklahoma,
seven-30
72
I
am
here
also
to
show
my
support
as
a
litigation
that
we're
talking
about
in
pursuit
of
ending
the
opioid
epidemic
I.
This
type
of
litigation
is
just
one
of
many
spokes
in
the
wheel.
There's
plenty
of
blame
to
go
around
in
this
problem,
but
certainly
this
is
a
key
piece
of
it
in
decreasing
access
to
dangerous
opioids
I
am
a
grateful.
AJ
Recovering
opiate
addict
myself
and
there
is
just
such
a
stigma
associated
with
opioid
disorders
and
I
can
testify
to
the
fact
that
this
type
of
addiction
disorder
does
not
discriminate.
I
am
you
know,
I
was
injured
and
I
was
prescribed
an
opiate
for
the
first
time
when
I
was
26
years
old.
There
was
absolutely
no
discussion
at
that
point
of
the
addictive
nature
of
opioids,
and
it
was
that
way
by
design.
AJ
The
other
key
piece
of
this,
some
of
the
other
ladies
have
mentioned,
is
increasing
access
to
treatment
resources.
If
it
weren't
for
state-funded
treatment,
resources,
I
would
not
have
been
able
to
access
treatment
and
I
am
considered
myself,
one
of
the
lucky
ones.
Who's
been
able
to
rebuild
their
lives
through
navigating
the
you
know,
complex
criminal
justice
system
and
I've
had
to
rebuild
my
life.
AJ
A
T
I
would
just
like
to
say
real
quickly
that
this
is
something
that
is
very
personable
to
me
or
very
personal
to
me
and
I
appreciate
everyone
coming
down
here
and
sharing
their
stories
and
I
appreciate
what
a
lot
of
y'all
do
every
day
to
help
with
these
type
of
issues.
I
hope
that
we
adopt
this
resolution
just
as
a
sign
that
we're
willing
to
join
the
fight,
along
with
other
states,
other
counties,
other
cities
against
this
epidemic,
because
it's
it
is
huge.
So
that
was
really
I
was
all
wanted
to
say.
Thanks
Thank
You,
councilman.
C
So
miss
littler
you,
you
indicated
that
when
they're
properly
used,
the
opioids
are
an
important
prescription
in
reducing
access
to
them
is
probably
the
key
that
we
should
be
focusing
on.
What
we're
about
to
vote
on
is
is
is
to
participate
in
a
lawsuit
against
the
manufacturers
and
distributors,
not
against
the
physicians
themselves.
Right
I
think
you
know
our
efforts
should
be
directed
towards
those,
because
it's
not
the
manufacturers
who
are
providing
direct
access
to
the
users.
C
So
an
increasing
access
to
treatment
after
the
addiction
begins.
I,
certainly
agree
and
I
want
to
say
this
too
I
understand
the
significance
of
this
problem,
the
pain
and
suffering
that
the
users
and
the
family
members
encounter.
I
just
think
we
need
to
focus
on
one
the
Oklahoma
Medical
Board
for
not
taking
actions
against
the
physicians
who
I
think
can
be
identified
and
then,
secondly,
not
taking
actions
against
the
physicians
themselves
and
I'd
appreciate
your
comments.
I.
AF
AF
I
do
not
all
I
know
is
I,
see
the
effect
of
people
getting
prescriptions
that
really
don't
need
them,
and
so
that's
what
I
decided
to
kind
of
limit
my
comments
to
and
really
leave
that,
obviously
to
your
legal
counsel
and
kind
of
your
decision-making
in
terms
of
what
is
a
good
way
to
limit
access.
Well,.
C
Certainly
we
all
agree
that
alcohol
can
prove
create
problems,
especially
for
individuals
that
become
that
have
the
characteristics
to
become
addicted
to
alcohol,
but
yet
we
don't
pursue
the
distillers
or
the
wholesalers
of
alcohol
to
remedy
that
I
do
like
the
idea
that
was
presented,
that
we
would
tax
the
prescriptions
themselves
to
provide
additional
treatment
for
this.
So
I
appreciate
your
time
and
coming
yeah.
W
I
I
have
some
thoughts
David
as
to
your
questions,
and
just
I
mean
this
is
as
a
physician
who
treats
chronic
pain
patients
and
as
a
city,
councilor
and
somebody
who's
in
recovery
from
addiction
myself.
This
is
by
far
the
most
important
public
policy
issue
for
me
personally,
that
I've
discussed
in
the
last
seven
years
and
I
think
the
opiate
epidemic
is
a
smaller
subset
of
a
bigger
issue,
which
is
basically
addiction.
W
It
has
three
components:
one
is
that
10%
of
the
population
cutting
across
all
demographics
teachers,
doctors,
lawyers,
city,
councilors,
department,
heads
all
of
our
4,000
employees,
about
10%
of
the
population,
is
going
to
suffer
from
chemical
dependency,
whether
it's
opiates
or
anything
else,
prescriptions
for
sedatives,
tranquilizers,
stimulants,
far
outnumber
opiates.
So
it's
not
just
opiates.
W
Second,
is
that
manufacturers
and
distributors,
doctors
and
nurse
practitioners
who
can
who
can
write
these
prescriptions
and
aren't
under
the
purview
of
the
Medical
Board.
Knowing
this
have
exploited
this
for
financial
and
then
third,
the
crisis
is
worsened
with
inadequate
treatment.
I
was
involved
in
an
incident
a
couple
days
ago.
That
I
think
encapsulates
a
lot
of
this.
I
was
driving
with
a
health
care
provider.
If,
if
they
were
involved
in
your
health
care
and
confident
you
all
would
would
love
them
great
top
of
their
game.
W
They're
driving
I'm
in
the
passenger
seat
or
getting
ready
to
get
on
the
highway
75
mile
an
hour,
speed
limit
and
they
have
a
grand
mal
seizure
and
after
I
deal
with
the
blood
coming
from
the
mouth
from
biting
through
the
tongue
and
the
losing
the
bladder
control
and
that
minute
to
two
minutes
of
violent
muscular
contractions.
We
get
to
safety
and
then
get
to
the
emergency
room
and
I
find
out
that,
even
though
she
has
a
history
of
addiction
that
at
dr.
W
David,
Callens
Annie
who's,
a
psychiatrist
at
Mercy
has
been
prescribing
her
a
combination
of
xanax,
which
is
a
benzodiazepine
and
adderall,
which
is
a
stimulants
of
a
kind
of
opposite
effects,
and
then
some
ambien
just
for
effect,
and
so
we
get
her
to
safety
and
now
she's
them
to
safety
and
now
they're
on
their
way
to
a
treatment.
I
made
my
complaint
to
the
Medical
Board
about
David,
dr.
David
Kellen
zani
yesterday
to
the
Medical
Board
I
want
him
to
know
that
I
and
others
in
the
in
the
recovery
community
are
coming
after
him.
W
I,
don't
think
he
can
justify
his
medical
treatment
as
a
standard
of
care.
It's
malpractice.
In
my
opinion,
he
put
my
and
other
people's
lives
at
danger
and
that's
what
we
need
to
do.
What
you're
saying
David?
We
need
to
send
a
message.
We
need
to
go
after
those
who
are
not
acting
not
not
practicing
medicine
appropriately.
W
W
They
took
his
license
and
now
I'd
ask
that
dr.,
David
Kellen
say
and
he
lose
his
license
and
I'd
ask
the
media
a
favor
if
you
could
call
a
doctor,
David
Collins
Andy
at
75,
120
600,
and
let
him
know
that
a
city
councilor
publicly
called
him
out
for
not
practicing
the
standard
of
care
and
and
let
him
know
that
we
were
coming
after
him
and
his
life
is
about
to
change.
The
the
issue
then
is
bigger
than
opiates.
W
They
lied
to
the
doctors
and
then
what
they
engaged
in
was
just
basically
bribery
of
physicians
and
just
in
the
last
few
days,
you've
had
a
sales
rep
from
a
company
called
incest
that
makes
synthetic
fentanyl,
and
this
one
sales
rep
has
admitted
to
giving
1.7
million
dollars.
Just
this
is
one
sales
rep.
Just
in
New
Jersey
in
a
two
year
period
to
doctors,
1.7
million
for
bogus
speaker
fees,
conferences,
it's
just
it's
basically
bribery!
W
Then
you
had
another
doctor
in
Florida
that
just
pleaded
guilty
of
saying
that
now
is
basically
all
of
these
opiates
act
on
the
same
pain.
Receptor
in
the
brain.
Fentanyl
is
a
hundred
times
more
potent
than
morphine,
so
he
he
admits
guilt
to
taking
five
hundred
thousand
dollars
in
bribes.
From
incest
corporation,
you
had
one
Purdue
Pharmaceuticals,
that
is
a
family
owned
private
company
that
captured
a
third
of
the
pain
market
with
basically
bribing
physicians
and
the
physicians
took
the
bribes
and
then
prescribed
knowing
the
addictive
patient.
W
So
the
other
thing
is
that
and
and
anyone
who's
on
opiates
should
know
this-
is
that
opiates,
when
you
use
them
for
more
than
six
months,
they're
designed
to
be
really
these
are
approved
for
people
with
less
than
six
months
of
like
life
expectancy,
because
if
you
use
them
for
more
than
that,
they
change
these
pain
receptors
in
your
brain.
So
they
actually
make
you
more
sensitive
to
pain,
so
things
that
would
hurt
that
are
noxious
stimuli.
W
You
hurt
more,
which
then
causes
the
primary
care
physician
and
the
nurse
practitioner
to
write
more
of
the
opiate,
and
then
they
develop
it.
So
you
just
dump
gas
on
the
fire,
so
I
have
patients
that
have
back
pain
and
their
primary
care
loads
them
up
with
fentanyl,
and
all
these
things
and
I
try
and
start
an
IV,
and
it's
like
you're
stabbing
him
in
the
knife
with
a
hand.
You're
stabbing
him
in
the
hand
with
a
knife
to
them.
It's
real,
but
it's
the
opiate,
that's
causing
the
pain
and
everybody
who's
on
opiates.
W
More
than
6
months
should
understand
that
that
opiates,
paradoxically
increases
your
pain
over
time,
and
the
manufacturers
knew
that
and
didn't
didn't
disclose
that
to
do
anyone
and
the
doctors
I.
Have
it
I
believe
that
human
beings
are
neither
smart
enough
and
or
ethical
enough
to
be
doctors.
They
just
are
not
intellectually
curious
enough
to
read
the
literature
that
says
you
should
never
treat
back
pain,
degenerative,
disc
disease
and
things
like
that
with
opiates
long-term.
W
They
don't
they're,
not
intellectually
curious,
and
when
they
are,
they
just
take
the
money
anyway,
and
they
they
don't
act
within
the
standard
of
care.
Then
in
Oklahoma,
very
specifically
in
Oklahoma
City.
You
had
physicians
that
created
these
urine
drug
screen
labs,
and
so
they
would.
They
said.
Oh
well,
we're
writing
prescriptions,
and
sometimes
people
take
recreational
drugs.
W
So
we
need
to
do
urine
drug
screens,
that's
the
standard
of
care,
but
they
created
labs
that
they
had
ownership
in
that
instead
of
$100
$200,
they
would
recruit
a
rural
hospital
in
rural
Oklahoma
and
because
they
could
build
more
if
it's
a
hospital
and
then
they
would
charge
one
to
two
thousand
dollars
per
patient.
For
the
urine
drug
screen
plus
the
office
visit,
and
so
then
you
have
this
person
comes
in
every
30
days.
W
You
write
them
there,
they're
xanax
or
there
adderall
or
their
or
their
opiate,
and
you
you're,
making
thousands
and
thousands
thousands.
So
this
is
this
is
what
has
happened
in
Oklahoma,
City
and
Oklahoma
and
I
agree
with
you
David.
It's
the
medical
community
that
needs
to
be
held
to
test.
The
Attorney,
General
has
and
they've
caught
on
to
the
urine
drug
screen,
scam
and
fraud,
and
they
have
cracked
down
on
that
and
I
will
say
things
are
getting
better
all
50
states.
W
W
You
know
it's
it's
getting
it's
getting
better
slowly,
and
this
is
one
step
that
we're
taking
today.
One
last
comment
on
our
family
of
city
employees.
We
have
4000
employees
for
easy,
math
right.
Ten
percent
of
the
population
is
going
to
have
chemical
dependency.
That's
that's
400
people.
It's
a
really
important
article
in
Psychology
Today
in
March
that
talks
about
addiction
and
police
officers
and
if
you
care
about
Lee
saucers,
which
I
know
that
we
all
do
that's
worth
it.
W
That's
a
good
read
and
talks
about
that
police
officers
basically
have
double
or
triple
the
addiction
rate
of
the
general
population.
So
it's
20
to
30
percent
nationwide
of
police
officers.
It's
one
in
four
police
officers
that
have
drug
and
alcohol
abuse.
One
in
four
police
officers
will
have
suicidal
ideation
some
point
in
their
career
and
twenty
to
thirty
percent
of
police
officers
suffer
from
chemical
dependency
and
then
you
take
save
10%
of
our
other.
W
You
know
we're
looking
at
like
six
hundred
people
or
six
hundred
people
in
the
city
of
Oklahoma
City
that
that
suffer
from
chemical
dependency.
So
what
do
we
do
right?
Because
part
of
the
frustration
for
everyone
is
that
we
just
don't
want
to
deal
with
this,
because
treatment
doesn't
work
right
and
so
people
they
have
problems
like
the
one
I
described
you
in
the
beginning,
over
and
over
and
over
everybody
gets
tired.
You
don't
want
to
deal
with
it.
What
do
we
do?
W
I
mean
the
success
rate
for
somebody
going
to
treatment
for
30
days,
for
opiates
is
about
5%,
5%,
so
95
for
five
years,
so
95
percent
are
gonna,
fail
so
of
our
hundreds
of
city
employees
that
that
go
to
treatment.
Ninety-Five
percent
are
gonna
fail
and
with
it
will
not
stay
sober
for
five
years.
So
I'd
ask
you
know
as
we
and
all
this
has
to
be
negotiated
with
the
unions
and
any
kind
of
change
in
policy
for
the
city.
W
Would
it
you
know,
have
to
be
negotiated
and
we
did,
but
I
just
want
to
get
it
on
something
on
everybody's
radar
I'm
the
product
of
the
physicians
recovery
program.
We
we,
we
are
the
envy
of
a
lot
of
cities
in
America.
It's
a
real
real
success
story.
We
have
a
higher
success
rate.
We
and
the
airline
pilots
are
in
a
league
of
our
own
right,
our
success
rate,
but
even
we
who
have
sky-high
success
rates
compared
to
everybody
else,
we're
like
70
to
75
percent,
but
that's
considered.
That's
considered
amazing.
W
There
are
two
things
that
make
physicians
and
airline
pilots.
Have
that
kind
of
you
know
Multi
multi
15
times
the
success
rate
of
everybody
else.
One
is
that
you
don't
go
to
treatment
for
30
days.
You
go
to
treatment
for
a
minimum
of
90
days
if
you're
a
physician
in
Oklahoma
City
and
you
want
to,
and
you
have
a
chemical
dependency
issue,
and
you
want
to
continue
to
practice
medicine
you.
There
is
no
30-day
program
in
America
that
you
can
go
to
not
Betty
Ford
Center,
not
the
meadows.
W
W
And
so
it's
you
wouldn't
treat
a
diabetic
right
and
for
30
days
and
then
say:
okay,
you
graduated
and
there's
no
follow-up
right
for
the
rest
of
your
life.
This
is
a
chronic
illness.
So
you
you
do
90
days,
and
then
you
have
five
years
of
follow-up
and
that's
if
we
want
to
take
care
of
our
own.
If
we
want
to
help
these
hundreds
of
employees
who
nobody
wants
to
do
any
of
this
stuff
on
their
own.
It's
all
the
leverage.
W
Physicians
have
such
a
high
success
rate
and
so
do
airline
pilots
because
there's
leverage
they
can't
work
unless
they
go.
Do
these
things
and
it's
that
leverage
that
would
translate
into
higher
success
rates
for
city
employees
and
I
appreciate
you
here.
That's
long,
but
it's
important
to
me
and
I
appreciate
you
thanks
Thank.
C
Yeah,
we
know
we're
not
through
with
this
debate,
so
I
understand
all
that
and
I
sympathize
with
again
those
individuals
who
become
addicted
or
their
family
members
I
recognize
the
severe
importance.
I
mean
I've
known
a
lot
of
people
who
have
become
addicted
to
alcohol,
and
it's
just
as
problematic
I
get
that.
C
But
we
have
a
tendency
in
this
country
to
let's
just
file
a
lawsuit.
You
know
it
can't
be
our
problem.
I
mean
we
can't
be
at
fault,
it
must
be
somebody
else,
who's
at
fault
with
this,
and
so
we
directed
to
the
manufacturers
or
the
distributors,
because
we
know
they
either
have
a
large
amount
of
resources
or
a
large
amount
of
insurance
to
cover
these
things.
All
we're
interested
is
is
getting
money.
The
state
has
already
filed
suit.
Why
isn't
that
sufficient
to?
Let
them
pursue
that?
And
then
we
take
an
alternative
course.
C
We
put
our
focus
on
the
physicians
and
and
the
Medical
Board
for
failing
to
properly
supervise
physicians.
I
say
that,
because
I
serve
on
the
Oakland
accountancy
board
and
we
monitor
a
CPAs
throughout
the
state,
we
even
look
when
we
feel
like
a
CPA
is
used
poor
judgment.
We
had
peer
reviews,
we
require
CPAs
to
have
other
CPA
firms,
come
in
and
review
their
practices
and
procedures
and
even
get
to
the
point
of
reviewing
their
work
papers.
C
C
We
as
citizens
of
Oklahoma,
will
ultimately
receive
the
benefit
of
that
effort
by
us,
participating
in
it
on
the
same
lawsuit,
I,
don't
know
what
we're
gaining
other
than
providing
some
substantial
fees
for
the
attorneys
who
would
be
representing
us
in
this
class-action
lawsuit.
It's
I
mean
at
this
point.
It's
obvious.
It's
just
free
money
and
if
we
want
to
participate
in
getting
some
of
that
free
money,
let's
go
forward,
but
I
think
our
actions
could
be
better
served
by
pursuing
another
group
of
defendants,
counsel.
R
Want
to
get
into
a
debate,
but
I
do
want
to
pay
back
on
what
David
said.
We
have
four
thousand
five
hundred
and
roughly
employees.
We
are
really
concerned
about
their
health
and
their
welfare,
their
children's
health
and
welfare
of
their
futures
I
think
an
action
that
we
should
be
taking
is
to
direct
our
Human
Resources
Department
to
attack
this
problem
holistically
as
to
what
can
we
effectively
do
and
not
chase
a
dollar
buy
a
lawsuit?
Thank
you.
Your
honor.
R
I'll
give
you
the
speech
again
real,
quick,
the
Reader's
Digest
version.
We
have
these
employees
whose
lives
were
concerned
about
their
families,
their
children,
their
heritage,
they
the
legacy
they
leave
rather
than
go
after
this
lawsuit
I
think
we
should
do
our
Human
Resources
Department
to
come
back
to
us
with
a
holistic
plan
of
what
can
we
do
to
help
our
employees
have
a
better
quality
of
life
and
I?
Don't
think
that
is
involved
in
just
having
a
lawsuit
after
manufacturers
and
distributors?
R
I
The
question
I
have
and
I'd
like
to
hear
from
why
like
is
as
far
as
the
state
versus
the
city
pursuing
it.
What
is
the
difference?
Is
a
city
has
access.
We
will
have
access
to
funds
that
we
can
spend
as
we
see
fit,
or
will
those
funds
come
to
us
through
the
state
action
I'm,
just
not
familiar
enough
with
how
the
state
action
through
the
attorney
general's
office
would
benefit
the
city.
This.
F
There's
a
state
statute
that
regulates
what
the
AG
can
spend
money
that
it
collects
from
this
judgment
and
it
does
not
include
distributing
those
funds
to
the
municipalities
and
counties.
That's
the
same
thing
that
happened
with
the
tobacco
settlement.
They
weren't
able
to
distribute
those
funds
to
like
the
city
of
Oklahoma,
City
or
any
other
communities,
so
that
issue
still
exists.
We
would
do
better
with
joining
a
litigation
with
the
multi
district
litigation
in
federal
court,
because
those
funds
will
be
distributed
to
each
of
the
municipalities
in
some
form,
educate.
I
F
W
Wanted
to
to
talking
about
our
employees
I
just
want
to
talk
about
how
the
process
works.
If
employee
needs
chemical
dependency
treatment
or
if
they
their
doctor
decides
they
do.
It
goes
to
the
Employee
Assistance
Program
and
they
independently.
We're
not
involved
at
all
in
deployment
assistance
program
decides
how
what
length
of
treatment,
whether
it's
outpatient,
inpatient
where
they
go
and
we're
not.
We
have
no
say
in
it.
We
don't
even
know
if
they
just
turn
in
FMLA
papers.
W
We
don't
even
know
necessarily
that
they
went
to
treatment,
so
they
so
this
Employee
Assistance
Program,
is
deciding
what
where
to
send
them.
The
problem
is
these
90-day
programs
long-term
inpatient.
It
doesn't
exist
in
Oklahoma
City
worth
of
what
thirty,
seventh
largest
market
or
whatever
world
we're
in
the
top
forty
cities.
We
have
no
long-term
inpatient
treatment
for
chemical
dependency.
Here,
that's
our
major!
That's
our
Achilles
heel!
That's
our
problem.
W
I
mean
I'm,
trying
to
scramble
to
help
this
person.
I
told
you
about.
In
the
beginning,
I
mean
it
with
the
the
facilities
are
not
bare
and
so
to
create
a
fund.
Yes,
we
of
course
we're
identifying
somebody
who
engaged
in
unethical
behavior
and
we're
asking
them
to
pay
for
part
of
it:
the
manufacturers
and
distributors.
They
are
not
the
only
party
and
they're,
not
the
only
party
that
we
should
go
after,
but
it
is
a
source
of
funds
that
the
city
could
then
utilize
to
bolster
our
anemic
almost
non-existent
treatment
facilities.
W
C
W
J
That
this
is
an
extremely
complex
problem.
It
involves
insurance
companies
who
won't
pay
for
ninety
days
of
treatment.
New.
We
don't
have
facilities,
but
if
I
could
just
maybe
add
a
little
bright
news,
we
know
we
do
have
some
facilities
coming
Integris
and
dr.
Krishna
and
Kelly
Frye
have
worked
for
years.
To
bring
us
Arcadia
trails
which
is
coming
in
will
provide
excellent
treatment.
Chad
richardson
is
working.
You
mentioned
the
meadows
is
working
on
breaking
the
meadows.
Tell
coma
city
I
mean.
I
think
people
in
this
community
first
step
is
doing
amazing
work.
J
People
have
identified
that
we
have
a
tremendous
need
and
don't
have
the
beds
and
don't
have
the
facilities
and
are
really
beginning
to
focus
on
that.
I
don't
disagree
that
you
know.
We've
got
an
issue
with
doctors
over
prescribing,
but
I
do
agree
that
there
is
substantive
research
that
does
show
that
the
pharmaceutical
companies
were
aware
of
the
issue
and
really
kept
it
hidden
for
a
very
long
time,
and
you
know
if
we
can
figure
out
a
way
to
provide
treatment
to
those
people
that
desperately
need
it.
J
I'm
not
a
fan
of
litigation
david,
it's
not
by.
I
don't
like
running
to
the
courthouse,
but
I
sure
think
we
need
some
dollars
to
expand
the
kind
of
treatment
that
we
provide,
so
that
our
kids
and
our
families
don't
have
to
go
out
of
state,
don't
have
to
go
someplace
else
and
and
can
receive
that
treatment
here.
So
that
would
be
my
perspective.
I.
C
K
I
I
agree
with
Larry
that
there
there
are
other
options
out
there
for
too
long.
We
have
ignored
mental
health
issues,
addiction
issues
throughout
this
state
and
for
us
to
spend
forty
five
minutes
today
and
make
some
decision
like
this
I
am
my
mind,
is
premature.
I
think
we
need
to
look
and
see
if
there's
other
options
like
Larry
suggested,
like
David,
suggested
and
think
about
this
before
we
do
anything
and
I
think
we
need
to
be
clear
on
if
the
state
gets
money
well,
will
that
benefit
people
in
Oklahoma
City?
I
T
And
I
was
gonna
say
like
councilman,
green
well,
I
agree
wholeheartedly
with
a
lot
of
what
you
say
and
Councilman
McAtee
I
agree
with
everything
you
say:
I
see
this
as
a
step,
a
spoken,
the
will
an
action
that
needs
to
be
taken
along
with
those
other
actions.
You
know
just
like
Big
Tobacco,
where
they
were
claiming
hey,
it's
not
addictive
and
at
the
same
time,
they're
working
to
make
it
even
more
addictive.
Why?
Because
it's
a
it's
a
generator
for
them.
T
This
is
the
same
thing
for
the
pharmaceuticals
and
it's
not
going
to
be
a
single
lawsuit
that
does
it
or
a
tea
set
program
like
tobacco
does
or
anything
else.
It
takes
a
lot
of
public
education.
It
takes
a
lot
of
dollars.
It
takes
everything
we
can
I.
Think
to
throw
at
this
issue
is
it's
not
tobacco
and
tobacco
is
bad.
It's
heroin
I
mean,
let's
be
fair.
It's.
C
All
in
stone,
okay,
if
if
as
councilman
Stonecipher
has
suggested,
we
defer
this
for
two
weeks
in
between
now
and
two
weeks.
If
we
can
get
evidence
that
demonstrates
that
the
manufacturers
and
the
distributors
knew
this
problem
and
withheld
information,
and
even
as
councilman
Shadid
suggested
in
in
certain
instances
paid
out
bribes
and
things
like
that.
C
Well,
yeah,
let's
go
pursue
the
bad
guys,
I've,
just
not
seen
that
evidence
now,
I've
not
studied
it,
but
I'm,
just
saying
if
we're
being
ready
to
enter
into
a
lawsuit
and
we
have
decisions
as
to
whether
or
not
we
go
forward
with
it.
Let's
see
the
evidence,
you
know
and
then
proceed
to
pursue
those
bad
guys
as
long
as
we
agree
as
a
council
that
we
won't
stop
with
them.
That's
the
easy
money.
A
I
W
The
evidence
is
overwhelming,
I
mean
I,
do
need.
We
don't
I,
just
need
to
see
it,
but
I'm
asking
right
and
I.
Think
two
weeks
now,
I
I
think
you
can
be
flooded
with
the
evidence,
I
mean,
live
and,
and
that's
easy
to
provide
you.
It's
very
easy.
It's
in
the
news.
Just
in
the
last
week
I
mean
it's.
It's
all
the.
A
W
A
Okay,
so
you're
kind
of
you
were
the
original
motion
maker
correct,
so
you're
comfortable
with
your
two-week
motion
and
we
had
a
second.
Is
there
any
other
discussion
on
the
deferral
motion?
Okay,
seeing
none
we'll
cast
our
votes
passes
unanimously,
we'll
defer
that
item
to
June
19th,
okay?
Well,
that
brings
us
to
9m
1
claims
recommended
for
denial
and
I
believe
anime.
There
was
withdrawn
earlier
by
the
city
manager.
Is
there
anyone
here
to
speak
to
any
of
these
items?
I'm
advice?
We
do
not
need
executive
session
I'll,
entertain.
A
Got
a
motion
and
a
second
any
discussion
seeing
none
cast
your
votes
passes
unanimously.
We
are
now
at
item
10
item
10a,
one
claims
recommended
for
approval,
we've
got
a
motion
and
a
second
I'm
advise.
We
do
not
need
an
executive
session.
Is
there
anyone
here
to
speak,

no

I
I'm.
In
every
30
years,
I
was
able
to
quit.
Smoking
t
said
took
three
times,
but
it
was
harder
than
going
through
our
you
college
architecture
and
the
program
that
was
in
there
was
interiors
and
that
included
anything
within
a
boundary.
It
also
had
an
emphasis
on
the
88
I
have.
O
AK
Some
problems
with
the
bar
I've
had
remarks
made
to
me.
I've
asked
him
to
kneel
the
bus
and
they
would
not
want
to
do
that
and
then
I
would
also
be
getting
off
the
bus.
Last
week
one
driver
told
me
he
said:
actually
we
only
have
to
kneel
a
bus
if
you're,
physically
disabled
and
I
told
him
that
I
would
take
that
up
at
the
City
Council
that
last
week
yesterday
I
got
on
the
bus.
It
was
at
23rd
and
Penn.
It
was
an
outbound
number.
Eight.
There
was
a
statistician
sitting
in
that
ata
area.
AK
AK
That
I
was
squishing
her,
that
she
could
not
do
her
job
and
she
wanted
me
to
move
and
I
did
not
move
I
persisted
I'm
not
going
to
move
for.
Somebody
like
that.
There
are,
you
know,
other
people
that
are
disabled
there.
The
lidar
hearing
sight
impaired
whenever
I'm
in
that
area
and
I
see
someone
get
on
that
bus.
I
know
that
I
need
to
relinquish
that
area,
because
that's
for
someone
that
sight
impaired
where
she
was,
she
wouldn't
do
that
for
them.
I
know
and
I
wouldn't
about
to
move.
AK
I
also
know
that
I
would
have
to
move
if
there
was
a
butcher
coming
home
because
they
have
to
lift
the
seat.
Sometimes
they'll
have
to
lift
the
other
seat,
but
I
know
that
her
job
and
she
said
she
was
squished
I,
said
I
was
squishing,
her
I
said
I
always
sat
here,
I
insisted
and
I
and
she
just
insisted
and
I
resisted
I
refused
to
do
it.
She
I
went
on
to
say
you
know:
I
pay,
my
fare
and
I
pay
my
taxes
and
that's
it
so
I
stayed
right.
AK
There
I
felt
that
this
woman
is
way
out
of
line.
I've
known
her
I
told
her
when
she,
when
she
first
went
to
work.
Doing
this
as
a
statistician
job
I
said
you
look
like
Brooke
Shields.
So
when
I
mentioned
that
she
remembered
me,
the
driver
was
not
getting
involved
in
this,
and
the
doctor
knew
the
driver
knew
who
I.
A
G
G
G
A
All
right:
well,
we're
start
we're
going
to
you
then
yes
scene,
and
your
three
minutes
starts
right
now.
Sure.
G
G
G
Body
gets
any
questions,
I
didn't
get
any
debates,
I
didn't
get
anything
I
just
been
dealing
with
the
police
department,
the
legal
department,
so
I'm
not
getting
anything
back
and
I,
don't
see
any
reason
this
is
what's
going
like
for
two
years
we
barely
wrote,
updated
the
audience
for
like
a
sentence,
but
now
next
Monday
Tuesday
and
keep
going
for
the
next
four
weeks.
You're
gonna
have
the
inspection
for
maybe
six
seven
hundred
vehicle
for
hire,
public
transportation
and
most
of
them,
they're
gonna,
they're
gonna
have
a
fraudulent
mechanical
inspection
and
I.
G
Don't
see
why
the
city
does
not
make
it
does
not
take
any
action
right
now
and
you're
gonna
have
inspection
here.
That's
gonna
have
a
home
trailer
park
address.
Business
does
not
exist.
I,
don't
see
why
the
police
department,
they
don't
do
any
quick
investigation
and
see
if
the
inspection
is
real
or
not.
So
nothing
is
done
so
far
and
I
see
it,
as
was
great
public
safety
concern
and
no
action
was
taken.
G
I
mean
at
least
I'd
like
to
city
to
move
on
and
do
just
like
the
other
cities
just
copy
and
paste
what
they
have,
because
we
don't
have
nothing
of
what
other
cities
they
have
and
I
provided
clear.
A
clear
example
as
much
as
I
could-
and
there
was
just
I-
have
hundreds
of
examples,
but
I
just
provided
three
of
them
and
I
wish.
You
know
the
city
what's
happening
right
now.
G
In
the
inspection
form,
we
have
a
seal
of
Oklahoma
City
and
the
city
is
delegating
power
to
third
party,
but
the
city
does
not
know
who's.
The
third
power
it
does
not
know
if
it
is
bonded
insured
has
a
city
license,
does
have
nothing,
so
anybody
can
sign
his
paper
and
leave
and
that's
what
happened.
The
person
who's
been
signing.
He
has
nothing,
no
assets,
nothing.
The
lawyers
are
after
this
and
they
found
out
that
this
person
doesn't
anything
so
he
doesn't
have
any
risk.

I'm,
an
attorney
with
the
Caine
law
office
and
I'm
here,
mostly
to
support
mr.
itaú's
work
that
he's
been
doing
to
strengthen
the
certifications
and
the
inspection
process
for
our
city's
taxis.
My
firm,
we
represent
a
client
who
was
a
passenger
in
a
cab
that
was
involved
in
a
motor
vehicle
accident.
AL
He
suffered
many
severe
injuries,
including
a
traumatic
brain
injury
and
after
hour
during
our
preliminary
investigation,
we've
determined
that
we
believe
that
vehicle
never
should
have
been
on
the
road
in
the
first
place,
and
this
is
becoming
somewhat
of
a
public
safety
issue
and
it's
our
opinion
that
new
policies
and
procedures
need
to
be
put
into
place,
such
as
mr.
Tao.
He
has
tested
two
that
may
make
the
vehicles
on
the
road
safer
and
not
a
danger
to
the
public
as
a
whole.
That's
all
I
have
thank
you.

A
AM
My

I
live
at

North,
West,

Street,
seven,
three
one
one
two
and
War
two
I've
heard
it
said
safety
regulations
are
written
in
blood.
The
same
can
be
said
about
many
of
our
municipal
codes.
How
many
of
our
municipal
codes
come
out
of
a
result
of
tragedy?
Our
public
safety
fire
electric
health
building
property
codes
originated
from
lessons
learned
from
tragedy.
AM
For
almost
a
decade,
we've
dutifully
submitted
our
items
to
the
Action
Center
for
junk
and
debris,
unlicensed
businesses,
property
maintenance
and
operable
vehicles,
trailers
parked
in
the
street
in
appropriate
RV
storage.
However,
the
same
vicious
cycle
continues.
The
junk
is
removed
only
to
reappear
within
a
few
days.
One
RV
is
replaced
with
another
and
inoperable
vehicles
move
from
one
place
to
another
and
the
photos.
You
can
no
two
rather
large
RV
that
can't
be
legally
parked
in
the
driveway,
is
plugged
in
and
moved
between.
AM
AM
Looking
forward
I
want
to
ask:
why
is
this
acceptable
that
this
continues?
One
property
owners
erected
a
non-conforming
stockade
fence
in
their
front
yard,
to
block
the
view?
Why
do
we
accept
that?
But
why
why
challenge
it?
We
can
understand
exactly
why
we've
even
seen
deteriorating
property
upkeep
spread
to
the
other
properties
as
they
begun
to
exhibit
the
same
habits.
AM
The
ongoing
circumstances
and
frustration
has
caused
an
demas,
City
and
anger
among
the
neighbors,
and
that's
illustrated
on
various
social
media
sites.
One
of
my
neighbors
will
speak
about
I've
received.
Numerous
emails
calls
messages
and
it's
from
neighbors
pleading
for
something
to
be
done.
Some
of
the
homeowners
are
throwing
up
their
hands
and
moved
away,
sold
their
houses
to
investors.
The
city
stands
by
as
investors
who
are
not
owner
occupants
chase
prices
in
this
area
to
the
floor.
AM
Why
does
the
city
accept
this?
When
is
the
city
going
to
take
the
steps
necessary
to
arrest
these
declines
and
give
the
code
enforcement
folks
the
tools
they
need
in
closing
I
would
like
to
say:
why
is
it
that
my
neighbors
and
I
must
watch
the
safety
and
security
of
our
neighborhood
and
the
value
of
our
homes,
decay
as
the
junk
and
debris
that
litters
these
properties?
Does
please
consider
what
would
you
do
if
these
were
in
your
neighborhood
in
your
neighborhood?
AM
W
W
So
we
we
do
not
and
I
want
you
to
know
that
we
do
not
accept
this
behavior
and
there
I
believe
there
are
currently
two
warrants
for
his
arrest.
Because
of
this,
what
what
we
might
do
I
mean
the
only
other
thing
we
could
potentially
do
is
refer
this
to
district
court
and
try
and
get
an
injunction
and
then
he
would
be
in
contempt
of
court.
In
addition
to
that
would
involve
you
know,
another
branch
of
government,
besides
just
the
city,
do
you
is.
AD
That,
yes,
we
could
go
to
district
court
for
an
injunction
and
abatement
of
a
public
nuisance
and
the
district
judge
could
authorize
us
to
go
on
there
on
an
ongoing
basis
and
remove
the
property
place
liens
on
his
property
to
recover
our
costs.
So
I
mean
we
could
go
when
do
that,
go
to
district
court
and
it
will
take
a
few
months
because
there
are
time
periods,
built-in
for
people
to
fall,
answerers
and
ever
all
that
but
yeah,
that's
that's,
definitely
a
possible
remedy.
Then
how
would
we
do
a
resolution
from
the
city
cam?
AD
W
AD
Been
six
citations,
he
basically
has
pled
guilty
on
six
of
them
and
their
extensions
from
the
judge
for
him
to
pay
the
fines
on
two
of
them.
He
failed
to
appear,
and
there
were
we're
now
or
actually
there
are
actually
arrest
warrants
out
for
him
to
on
two
charges.
So
those
are
the
six
citations
and
that's
kind
of
the
status
of
them
by.
AN
W
AM
In
in
in
in
Charles
block
last
year
spoke
that
he
believed
that
he
was
a
scrapper
who
was
running
a
business
using
big
junk,
and
he
said
that
he
couldn't
prove
that.
Well,
mr.
green,
well,
I
am
a
CPA,
a
trained
auditor
and
within
20
minutes
we
provided
the
city
attorney's
office.
We
provided
multiple
officials
online
items
that
were
being
sold
with
picture
of
these
properties.
Yet
the
city
chooses
not
to
address
that
issue
as
well.
AM
W
W
I
AM
Big
big
junk
is
this:
is
this
week
so
I
mean
the
big
junk
pickup
is
this
week
there
will
be
vehicles
there
and
that's
part
of
it.
It
is
a
cycle,
but
the
cycle
has
we've
got
to
stop
this
cycle
I
mentioned
last
year.
The
definition
of
insanity
is
repeating
the
same
activities
and
expecting
a
different
outcome.
I.
W
AM
AM
I
A
Yeah
and
I've,
driven
by
this
property,
and
it's
horrific
and
and
I've
directed
anyone
who
will
listen
to
take
the
strongest
legal
steps
that
we
can
and
it
sounds
like.
We've
figured
out
what
that
what
that
path
is
the
one
lingering
question
I
have
is
for
Kenny
or
LaShawn,
or
anybody
is
if
we
have
a
outstanding
arrest
warrant
and
he's
there
every
day.
Why
hasn't
he
been
arrested?
AO
Good
morning,
mayor
Councillor
John
Thompson
court
administrator,
the
two
outstanding
arrest
warrants
on
behalf
of
mysteries.
When
tickets
are
issued
from
code,
they
are
issued
to
the
property
owner,
so
we
don't
have
identifiers
in
our
system.
I've
worked
with
in
collaboration
with
code,
legal
and
the
police
department
to
get
those
identifiers,
so
we
now
have
the
identifiers
on
behalf
of
mr.
eats
and
the
new
warrants
were
issued
as
of
this
morning
with
all
of
his
identifiers.
The
warrants
will
be
given
to
the
municipal
court
detail
unit,
and
then
they
will
execute
those
warrants.
Okay,.
AD
AD
K
I
AD
Or
later,
though,
all
those
charges
for
removing
the
junk
and
debris
or
go
as
liens
against
his
property
and
they're
sent
over
to
the
county
treasurer's
office
so
sooner
or
later
he's
either
gonna
have
to
pay
thousands
of
dollars
to
the
county,
treasurer
which
comes
back
to
the
city
or
they're
gonna
sell
this
property.
That's
what's
gonna
happen.
A
Z
AP
So
my
name
is
Marcus
Janani
I
live
at
24:04,
North,
West
42nd
Street
today
I'm
here
to
talk
to
you
about
the
same
issue
that
Tom
brought
up
I
passed
to
Edie
is
a
list
of
social
media
postings.
What
I
really
want
to
express
to
you
guys
is
how
much
this
affects
the
neighborhood
and
the
city.
There
are
over
200
comments
directed
at
this
one
property
from
Tom's
last
visit
here
and
a
posting
from
two
weeks
ago.
I
really
feel
that
this
has
gone
on.
AP
Far
too
long,
I
mean
Tom
has
made
references
to
2013
that
this
has
been
a
problem
and,
as
a
citizen
I
feel
that
our
needs
are
being
ignored.
I
really
do
appreciate
today
the
council
taking
up
this
measure
to
abate
the
mess.
So
thank
you
very
much
for
that
and
I
do
appreciate
you
setting
forth
the
motion
to
take
legal
action,
but
I
just
really
feel
you,
as
our
representatives
need
to
know
that
this
problem
is
bigger
than
you
know,
Tom
or
me,
or
our
other
neighbor
Matt.
Who
is
here
to
speak
to
you
today.
AP
AQ
AQ
If
you
look
at
the
house
in
question
in
the
house
next
to
it,
you
can
see
that
it
has
just
moved
and
you
can
see
the
backyard
now.
What
I
want
you
to
pay
attention
to
there's
an
electrical
transformer
which
provides
electrical
current
and
me
being
a
chief
supervisory
power
engineer.
I
will
tell
you
that
if
anybody
had
to
go
in
and
rectify
any
problems
with
that
transmission
line,
it'd
be
kind
of
difficult.
So
people
on
oxygen
things
of
that
nature,
your
wives,
your
daughters,
doesn't
matter.
AQ
How
would
we
do
that
plus
we
can't
get
to
the
the
fire
hydrant,
that's
on
the
corner
house,
which
would
be
24
32,
because
we
don't
have
enough
hose
to
stretch
all
the
way
between
the
houses,
because
we
can't
get
there.
We'd
have
to
go
around
the
houses
or
go
another
block
of
to
actually
save
anybody
in
this
area.
To
me,
this
is
not
about
what
they're
doing
or
whatever
this
is
about
lives
and
loss.
Something
bad
happens.
We
all
have
to
know
this.
We
have
to
hold
our
hand
up
and
do
what's
right.
AQ
AQ
AQ
We
need
to
all
be
accountable
for
what
we
do
and
we
need
to
be
safe,
and
this
right
here
there
are
children,
my
children
play.
Would
you
like
that,
offense
that
on
24:32
has
been
erected
illegally
on
twenty
four
forty?
You
can
see
the
fence
going
all
the
way
out,
so
the
easement
law
states
that
we
must
have
proper
easement.
AQ

Yes,
my
name
is
Ronnie
Kirk
from
23:28
North
Medora
in
Oklahoma,
City
y'all
know.
If
I
try
to
fight
for
gun
law
changes
it.
Obviously
Thanks
you
remind
me
when
I
was
a
young
man.
You
fight
saw
it
problem
a
loose
solution.
The
other
day
memo
a
fiance.
We
was
out
having
lunch
and
we
trying
to
find
a
why's
it
so
hard
for
the
NRA
to
change
the
situation.
AR
The
reason
I
was
thinking
in
our
NRA
donated
eleven
million
Donald
Trump
Organization
for
his
election.
The
NRA
is
a
billion
dollar
annually,
cooperation
which
is
libidinous.
It's
a
business
out
thinking
on
the
business
interests
of
it.
If
I
was
an
NRA
owner
and
I,
looked
over
to
my
fiance
I'll
say:
go
pay
all
the
people
whose
kids
got
killed.
It's
not
500
yet,
but
it's
getting
close
go,
give
them
all
of
me
and
all
the
peace,
a
million
dollars
to
five
hundred
people
to
the
NRA,
which
is
a
billion-dollar
corporation.

AR
Those
cellphones
are
about
health.
It's
a
very
smart
phone.
All
you
gonna
do
is,
do
it
ask
them,
just
as
your
phone
it'll
tell
you
all
the
donations
given
to
us
all
the
lawmakers
and
to
down
Trump's
election,
it
tells
you
every
time.
That's!
The
reading
is
so
hard
to
get
the
gun
law
change.
The
RNA
in
our
a
is
donating
so
much
money,
it's
for
reelection
and
the
campaign
of
the
lawmakers
and
our
president
that
it
doesn't
matter
about
the
kids
last
night
anymore.
AR
The
kids
lights
are
real
valuable,
which
is
worth
more
than
$10
apiece,
so
billion
dollar
corporal
annually
a
million
dollars
to
each
family
over
the
years.
They
would
still
make
money
pan
out
all
this
money
to
keep
it's
a
business
to
keep
manufacturing
gun.
It's
a
business
like
any
kind
of
business
and
they
should
be
held
accountable
and
I
branch
out
yo
some
of
y'all
needed
Bank
of
Oklahoma.
AR
Last
week,
I
gave
y'all
some
pictures,
and
yesterday
a
man
come
by
walking
on
my
property,
saying
he's:
got
a
notification
to
come
by
the
city
sent
out
for
beers
to
have
my
place,
throw
down
so
I
went
by
this
place.
I
gave
y'all
the
pitches
are
last
week
to
see
if
it
has
changed
been
made.
They're
called
the
tornado
hit
that
five
years
ago
and
I
took
pictures
of
it
and
they're
still
the
same
Thank
You
Ronnie.
