A
B
That
that
was
not
my
career
path,
nor
was
Homeland
Security
I
spent.
You
know
almost
nine
years
working
for
the
Office
of
Homeland
Security.
So
not
exactly
the
things
you
grow
up
dreaming
about,
but
for
me,
my
career
path
to
kind
of
an
interesting
trajectory.
My
very
first
job
was
working
for
a
sentencing
commission
for
a
think.
Tank
and
I
was
hired
on
January
nineteenth
nineteen
ninety-five.
So
three
months
to
the
day
of
my
very
first
job,
I
was
in
the
bombing
in
downtown
Oklahoma
City
and
we.
B
B
It
was,
and
and
and
I
do
some
of
our
first
persons
for
the
memorial
on
the
board
now
for
the
memorial
and
very
proud
of
the
the
work
we've
done,
and
my
story
was
I.
Think,
and
you
know,
from
the
perspective
of
just
kind
of
the
shock
of
being
a
young
attorney
and
at
my
desk
that
day
and
then
all
of
a
sudden
everything
just
changed
in
an
instant
and
when
so
many
people
did
not
walk
away.
B
That
I
was
able
to
walk
away
that
day
and
go
home
and
not
go
to
the
hospital
was
just
but
then
the
guilt
that
I
carried
because
of
that
and
when
I
was
spared,
and
so
many
people
were
not
and
and
so
my
my
kind
of
career
paths
and
and
my
desire
to
kind
of
be
of
use
and
be
of
service
in
some
way
and
and
to
try
and
continue
to
move
forward.
Is
you
know,
just
really
intertwined
in
a
lot
of
ways
with
what
we've
done
with
with
the
city,
which
is
just?
B
B
General
I
was
his
chief
of
staff
and
was
not
really
expecting
to
get
the
call.
But
after
the
you
know,
horrible
murder
of
Commissioner
Costello
and
as
tragic
as
that
was
I.
I
got
the
call
and
originally
said
you
know
no,
not
really
interested
in
this
I'm,
not
really
interested
in
taking
a
huge
pay
cut
for
one,
but
going
into
a
political
position
and
in
such
a
difficult
time.
But
I
think
that
sometimes
you
know
circumstances
are
such
that
I
probably
was
more
sensitive,
because
I
had
what
I
had
been
through
through
the
murrah
bombing.
B
That
I
was
more
sensitive
to
what
the
staff
was
going
through
and
then
my
background
in
public
policy,
I
think,
is
very
helpful
to
the
agency
to
really
quickly
learn
what
it
is
that
we
do
and
what
are
some
things
that
we
can
be
doing
differently.
So,
even
though
it
wasn't
something
I
was
seeking,
and
I
think
these
things
have
a
way
of
working
out,
okay
and
and
so
I'm
just
trying
to
be
of
service,
while
I
can
so
I've
two
years.
B
It's
really
interesting.
A
lot
of
people
think
that
we
deal
with
labor
issues
right.
That
would
make
sense
actually
not
very
much.
We
have
a
very
small
piece
that
deals
with
wage
and
hour
compensation
so
where
somebody
has
worked
and
has
not
been
properly
compensated,
we
do
handle
those
claims,
but
primarily
we
focus
on
two
areas.
One
is
safety,
so
workplace
safety.
B
If
you
are
a
public
employer
such
as
the
city
of
Oklahoma
City,
we
help
you
with
those
kinds
of
issues
and
and
injuries
or
training,
and
whatever
way
we
can
be
of
assistance
for
private
employers.
We
actually
have
an
incredible
program,
which
is
called
an
OSHA
consultation
program
and
OSHA
has
just
announced
that
the
fines
have
gone
up
almost
eighty
percent,
and
so
a
business
is
thinking.
What
do
I
do
to.
You
know,
help
respond
to
this.
Well,
one
of
the
things
you
can
do
is
to
contact
our
office.
B
We
have
a
program,
it's
free,
it's
confidential
and
we
can
walk
through
an
OSHA
consultation.
We
can
walk
through
an
osha
inspection
help.
Those
private
businesses
identify
areas
that
they
could
get
fined
and
then
they
can
make
those
Corrections
ahead
of
time
and
save
our
businesses,
millions
and
millions
of
dollars
so
great
program.
The
other
major
area
that
we
focus
on
is
regulation,
so
amusement
rides
elevators
boilers,
CNG
pumps,
alarms,
locksmith
sprinklers
I
mean
we
have
just
this
huge
regulation,
licensing
inspecting
component
that
we
do
as
well
and
that's
been
an
area.
A
B
Deal
the
state
we
do
and
if
you're
a
large
city
like
oklahoma
city,
which
has
opted
out
and
the
city
of
tulsa,
was
opted
out
and
then
they
realized
that
it
was
costing
them
a
lot
of
money.
So
they
gave
it
back
to
us.
But
so
we
will
do
those
inspections
and
it's
an
annual
and
affection
or
if
there's
an
issue,
if
there's
an
injury
or
complaint
or
something
like
that,
then
we'll
go
out,
but
that's
a
great
example
of
an
area
that
there
is
a
fee
in
statute
that
has
not
been
raised
forever.
B
The
the
inspection
program
operates
at
about
a
half
a
million
dollar
shortfall
every
single
year
and
it
just
doesn't
make
sense
anymore
and
I've
also
learned
that
the
fee
we're
charging
is
completely
undercutting
the
private
market.
So
if
you're
an
inspector
and
trying
to
build
up
a
private
inspection
business,
we
can
always
undercut
you
and
I.
Don't
really
think
that's
the
right
role
of
government
right
to
be
undercutting
the
private
sector,
and
so
that's
a
great
example
of
an
area
that
we're
looking
at.
B
Maybe
we
end
up,
there's,
there's
plenty
of
elevators
to
inspect
and
escalators
and
all
of
that-
and
so
hopefully
we
can
evolve
where
our
program
doesn't
have
a
shortfall
where
the
private
sector
is
built
up
a
little
bit
and
maybe
we
are
able
to
focus
on
some
of
those
public
sector
areas.
So
just
really
taking
a
look
at
the
weeds
of
some
of
these
regulations.
We.
B
It's
been
really
interesting,
I
mean
obviously
the
summer
there's
been
a
lot
of
high-profile
accidents
that
have
occurred
and
I
think
one
of
the
things
that
I
hope
the
public
understands
is
that
regulating
amusement
rides
varies
depending
upon
the
state
and
depending
upon
the
ride,
but
really
the
state.
So
there
are
only
30
states
that
regulate
amusement
rides
well
within
that
30,
some
of
them
just
turn
in
an
insurance
policy
or
some
of
them.
B
Self-Report
Oklahoma
does
all
that
and
we
have
state
inspectors
so,
for
example,
at
the
State
Fair
they
go
out
before
the
fair
opens
they're
there
when
the
rides
come
off
the
truck.
They
are
there
for
every
minute
of
the
construction
of
the
rides
and
they
are
on
on-site
throughout
the
entirety
of
the
fair,
so
Oklahoma
has
a
higher
level
of
regulation
and
then
I
think
some
of
the
other
states
that
have
been
in
the
news
and
interesting.
It's
important
thing
for
people
to
understand
anything.
B
B
We
have
incredible
people
that
I
work
really
hard
to
be
as
competitive
as
I
can
be
with
the
private
sector,
but
luckily
they
have
such
a
servant's
heart
and
are
really
trying
to
do
what
they
can
to
protect
the
safety
of
the
public
and
the
safety
of
the
workplace.
And
it's
been
a
real
honor
to
be
there.

Expired
I'm
filling
an
unexpired
term
and
for
me
that's
a
that's
a
personal
decision
based
more
on
timing.
Our
sons
are
in
the
fifth
and
sixth
grade,
and
so
it's
it's
kind
of
the
next
three
years.
I
feel
like
you're
an
important
time
to
be
involved
in
their
lives
and
to
be
paying
attention
and
to
be
present
and
so
focusing
on
that
instead
of
running
statewide,
it's
probably
best
for
me
right
now
and
for
my
family
well,.

It's
just
the
availability.
Our
doctor,
dr.
Billy
stout,
is
also
on
the
Medical
Board,
as
the
secretary
he's
very
focused
on
helping
doctors
to
educate
them
on
how
to
prescribe
to
address
the
the
needs
of
the
individual,
rather
than
looking
at
that
fifth
dimension,
which
has
obviously
been
paying
for
so
many
years
to
look
at
the
individual
and
to
really
assess.
Is
this
medication
necessary,
especially
if
it
provides
any
kind
of
numbing
or
dulling
or
pain
management
at.
A
F
As
as
addicts
tend
to
to
need
more
and
the
availability
is
scarce,
a
pretty
common
question
or
statement
is:
can
I
get
more
I
lost
my
prescription,
the
dog
ate
it
all
the
same
school
kid
kind
of
excuses
or
what
the
doctors
are
experiencing
and,
of
course,
that
doctor
trained
to
help
it
listens
to
the
individual
and
says
oh
well,
let
me
let
me
help
you
and
actually
it's
not
helping
them.
It's
making
things
worse.
If.
A
F
F
You
ask
that
we
do
have
a
private
union
unit
where
you
can
stay
in
a
private
bed
or
a
semi-private
room
access
to
all
the
same
resources.
You
can
go
mingle
with
the
other
individuals
that
are
staying
at
the
T
at
TRC,
but
for
the
most
part
we
don't
separate
people
by
the
substance
that
they
used.
We
see
that
is
a
very
common
malady,
regardless
of
what
the
instrument
they're
using
to
harm
themselves
with
and.
A
I
large
problem
is
that
people
can
successfully
go
through
a
treatment
center,
but
then
you
know
some
time
later,
a
year
later,
five
years
later,
they
might
fall
prey
to
the
to
the
to
the
disease
one
more
time.
How
do
you
deal
with
trying
to
get
people
to
you
know
to
once
they
leave
your
place
to
not
have
to
come
back.
F
What
we're
challenged
with
trying
with
educating
the
the
families
and
helping
them
to
understand
that
those
text
messages
those
hugs
those
words
of
support
to
encourage
them
is
very
important,
even
when
they're
in
a
state
where
their
fallen,
where
they
are
struggling
and
they're,
just
not
quite
ready
or
they've,
given
recovery.
A
chance
and
it
didn't
stick,
be
supportive,
encourage
that
person
to
come
back
to
get
back
on
the
horse.
F
A
F
At
TRC
we
also
have
outpatient
counseling
as
well
as
ambulatory
detoxification.
Not
everybody
can
drop
their
lives
and
their
and
their
jobs
to
an
employer,
I
would
say,
be
supportive.
This
is
an
individual
you've
taken
a
lot
of
time,
a
lot
of
resources,
important
money
and
you've.
You
found
this
person,
you've
built
them
up
and
they've
stumbled
support
them,
get
them
into
the
recovery,
the
the
help
that
they
need
and
be
supportive
through
that
process
that
you're
going
to
get
back
a
better
human
being
you're
going
to
get
it
back.
F
A
F
A
good
question,
Oklahoma
I,
believe
the
current
stats
just
came
out
recently
and
we're
not
ranked
very
well
I
believe
are
ranked
about
47
in
the
nation,
but
also
what's
amazing,
what
oh
das
a
SAS
is
doing
is
we're
doing
so
much
more
with
such
little
I
believe
we
are
supported
less
than
twenty-five
percent
of
what
many
of
these
other
states
are
providing
to
their
to
their
departments.
All.
A
F
We
had
to
begin
to
look
at
contracts
with
insurance
companies
three
years
ago,
because
the
state
and
in
our
struggles
as
a
state,
we
have
a
huge
shortfall.
That's
that's
not
any
surprise
or
nothing
in
that
secret
and
in
that
shortfall
for
every
patient
that
we
admit
we're
about
a
hundred
and
fifty
dollars
short
per
day
in
being
able
to
help
them.
Now
we
continue
to
do
that,
but
we
rely
on
our
private
customers,
as
well
as
those
insurance
contracts
for
reimbursement
all.

A
J
A
A
J
Open
streets
is
becoming
very
popular
across
the
United
States.
It's
where
you
close
down
a
main
street
two
cars
for
about
four
to
five
hours.
So
there's
no
cars,
no
motorized
activity
and
it
gives
people
space
to
walk,
run
bike
skateboard
bring
their
dogs.
So
it's
just
a
promote
physical
activity
and
active
transportation.
So
that
is
we're
trying
to
bring
that
to
Oklahoma
City
and
we've
done
it
for
a
couple
years.
But
this
is
our
second
year
on
the
south
side,
all.
J
Okay,
we
are
in
the
spring
or
signature
event
is
on
Northwest
23rd.
So
last
year
we
had
about
35,000
to
40,000.
People
come
out
very
successful,
perfect
weather
tons
of
activities
and
lots
of
partner
organizations
come
and
provide
Zumba
yoga,
tai
chi
basketball
soccer
any
physical
activity.
We
try
to
provide
it
at
this
event
or.
J
A
E
Southwest
29th
street
is
one
of
the
fastest
growing
business
improvement
districts
in
oklahoma
city
in
a
consumer's
traffic
business
owners.
So
one
of
the
things
we're
trying
to
do
is
to
reach
out
to
the
business
owners
so
that
they
can
let
their
customers
know
and
and
the
public
that
supports
all
of
those
businesses.
I
mean
we
have
over
200
businesses
in
this
district
between
May
and
shields,
and
that's
very
directly
connected
with
the
Robinson
and
guy
yellow
single
historic
Capitol,
Hill
District.
So
it's
a
very
well
connected
vibrant.
E
Is
you
know,
Oklahoma
City
is
very
well
on
its
way
to
becoming
a
world-class
City
and
we
couldn't
be
more
proud.
Having
grown
up
and
spent
a
lot
of
my
career
in
Dallas
I
can
see
where
the
Hispanic
population
is
going
to
be
a
critical
part
of
Oklahoma
City.
So
and
it
comes
with
its
woes,
you
know
we
as
Hispanics.
We
have
a
very
rich
cuisine
and
larger
families,
and
we
work
a
lot.
E
E
A
G
A
Southwest
29th
street
lately
just
how
vibrant
the
businesses
are
10
years
ago.
There
were,
you
know
some
businesses
that
were
boarded
up,
or
you
know
a
chain-link
fence
out
fine
on
the
street,
and
you
know
it
looked
like
an
area
that
was
going
the
other
direction
and
now
that's
certainly
not
the
case.
There's
there's
a
lot
of
people
working
along
Southwest,
twenty
ninth
Street.
It's
it's.

We
actually
have
a
very
exciting
project
coming
up,
we're
hoping
to
launch
it
in
the
spring
of
2017.
It's
called
the
OKC
mobile
market
and
we
are
turning
a
what
was
a
coca-cola
delivery
truck
about
a
16
foot
truck
into
a
mobile
grocery
store.
So
it
will
sell
fruits,
vegetables,
meat,
dairy
shelf-stable
items
and
we
are
going
to
have
that
truck
park
and
go
into
neighborhoods
that
have
low
access
to
good
grocery
stores.
So
we're
very
excited
about
that.
The
truck
is
where.

As
far
as
the
new
wellness
vez,
yes,
we're,
building
a
new
southern
oaks
learning
and
wellness
center
right
in
the
same
areas,
Parmalee
elementary
southern
southern
oaks
library
in
the
community
center.
So
it
will
be
very
similar
to
our
campus
on
North
sixty-third
with
a
clinic
and
classes
and
education
and
walking
trails,
so
an
awesome
resource
for
the
community.
It's.

Add-Ons
northeast
63rd
is
our
Northeast
Regional,
Health
and
Wellness
campus.
We
have
free
walking
trails,
they're
open
all
the
time.
Anyone
can
come
use
them.
There's
workout
stations
along
the
walking
trails,
there's
community
gardens,
there's
a
kaboom
playground,
soccer
fields,
basketball,
courts,
the
OSU
Extension
agency
is
also
on
our
campus
and
then
we
host
classes
in
our
building
for
weight
loss.
We
have
an
awesome
program
called
my
heart
if
you
don't
have
insurance,
but
you
have
a
chronic
chronic
condition.

Alright
I
hope
you'll
get
out
and
join
these
these
two
and
and
make
open
streets
a
part
of
your
october
calendar
and
be
sure
and,
as
they
said,
bring
others
to
come
down
and
enjoy
everything
that
will
be
available
and
a
great
opportunity
to
get
outside
and
enjoy
what's
available.
I'll
thank
them
for
coming
on
the
show
and
I'll.
Thank
you
for
joining
us
on
the
mayor's
magazine.
I'll
see
you
next
month
with
another
edition.
