All
right,
good
morning,
first
I'd
like
to
start
off
by
thinking
Morris
mcraven,
Justin,
Eckles
and
Maurice
Johnson
for
playing
the
music
this
morning.
I
always
love
when
they
do
that.
It
just
sets
a
great
Vibe
I.
Think
for
the
rest
of
the
meeting.
We're
going
to
start
this
morning
with
the
invocation
led
by
Pastor
Adam
Ellison,
with
First
Lutheran
Church,
followed
by
the
Pledge
of
Allegiance,
with
Rachel
Traub,
representing
Girl
Scouts
troop
580.,
pastor,.
F
Please
bow
your
heads,
gracious
and
Almighty
father
without
whose
help
and
blessing
all
labor
is
in
vain.
Remember
this
leading
body
in
their
work.
We
come
before
you
today
to
ask
that
you
guide
the
decisions
of
these
members
as
they
fulfill
your
mission
in
service
to
the
people
of
Oklahoma,
City
Lord,
endow
them
with
wisdom
in
the
commission
of
their
duties,
with
a
spirit
of
sacrifice
for
the
common
welfare
with
mercy
and
Justice
with
uprightness
and
kindliness.
F
E
E
I
I
All
of
you,
including
the
city
council,
members
and
administration,
have
received
a
little
card
with
the
invitation
with
the
details
of
the
festival,
I'd
like
to
say
it's
very
exciting
for
us
for
several
reasons
this
year.
First
of
all
we're
starting
into
a
partnership
with
Oklahoma
City
Community
College,
and
we
will
be
doing
most
of
our
events
at
that
venue.
We're
very
excited
to
present
the
Charlie
Christian
International
Music
Festival
there
this
year
and
we're
embracing
our
International
piece
of
it
this
year.
The
little
card
that
you
have
in
your
hand.
I
The
logo
that
we
bear
is
designed
by
an
Italian,
illustrator
and
artist
and
we're
very
proud
that
he,
his
his
logo,
was
selected.
This
year.
We
have
received
many
acknowledgments
across
the
country
this
year
and
even
outside
of
the
country.
I
There's
a
band:
that's
in
France
in
Paris
very
much
the
Charlie
Christian
band
style.
We
didn't
know
the,
but
they
knew
us
through
Charlie
Christian
and
they
contacted
us
and
they
wanted
to
come
and
play
this
year.
But
it
was
a
little
bit
too
late,
so
I
kind
of
made
a
deal
with
it.
I
want
you
all
to
witness
this.
I
My
deal
is:
if
you,
if
you
could
get
to
New
York,
we
can
do
the
rest,
and
so
next
year
we
expect
to
have
the
ban
from
France,
but
this
year
we're
very
proud
to
have
Mark
Whitfield,
who
is
a
Charlie
Christian
style
guitarist.
I
There
I'm
saying
that,
because
they're
only
a
very
few
in
the
whole
world,
maybe
seven
or
eight,
and
he
is
coming
from
New
York-
he's
our
headliner
for
this
year
and
he'll-
be
surrounded
by
local
and
Regional
musicians
in
the
weekend
of
just
happiness
and
joy
and
black
Incorporated
is
very
proud
to
be
a
part
of
Oklahoma
City
is
development
and
growth
and
we're
happy
to
lead
the
way
with
Charlie,
Christian's,
music
and
all
of
the
halls
of
Fame.
I
That
he's
inducted
into
are
too
numerous
to
list
in
this
Proclamation
the
Lincoln
Center
Hall
of
Fame,
the
most
renowned
is
where
he
gets
where
anyone
can
find
the
most
information
about
Charlie
Christian.
He
is
revered
by
the
world
and
this
man's
been
dead
over
90
years.
I
E
I
E
All
right
that
brings
us
to
item
three
on
the
agenda
from
the
office
of
the
mayor.
We
have
an
appointment
item,
a
of
Chelsea
banks
that
serves
a
member
of
the
maps
for
Citizens
Advisory
Board
Item
B
is
an
appointment
of
Janice
powers
to
serve
as
a
member
of
the
Oklahoma
City
Planning
Commission.
We
can
take
both
of
these
items
with
one
motion.
E
B
Thank
you.
Thank
you,
Mr
vice
mayor.
We
do
not
have
any
presentations
today.
I
just
note
that
we
have
the
council
priorities
update
and
this
one
is
the
one
with
performance
measures
on
developing
a
transportation
system
that
works
for
all
of
our
residents.
We
also
have
the
quarterly
investment
report
and
I
just
want
to
just
express
my
appreciation
to
the
treasury
division
of
the
finance
department
and
the
work
that
they
do.
B
You
look
at
that
report
and
they're
managing
a
significant
amount
of
funds
and
making
sure
they're
doing
it
in
a
way
that
protects
those
funds,
but
generates
some
return
for
our
residents
and
I
really
appreciate
their
work.
We
also
have
the
budget
transfers
report
this.
The
council
there's
authorization
for
us
to
do
certain
administrative
transfers
within
our
budget.
This
just
gives
a
summary
of
those
transfers
and
we
present
that
and
provide
that
each
quarter.
So
that's
all
that
I
have
today.

K
My
name
is
Jennifer
Lacy
I
am
a
senior
development
manager
with
the
American
Heart
Association
here
in
Oklahoma,
City
and
I'm
here
to
talk
about
the
Heart
Walk,
that's
coming
up
on
June
3rd.
First
of
all,
thank
you
all
for
having
us
here
today.
I
want
to
tell
you
just
a
little
bit
about
what
we're
doing
on
June
3rd
beginning
at
8
A.M.
We
will
have
many
booths
and
Tents
to
kind
of
explore.
We
will
have
Walgreens
is
going
to
be
out
doing
some
blood
pressure
checks.
K
So
we're
going
to
teach
people
that
the
American
Heart
Association
firmly
believes
that
at
least
one
person
in
every
household
should
know
how
to
administer
CPR.
So
we're
hoping
to
reach
about
three
to
four
thousand
people
on
June
3rd,
we'll
also
have
a
kids
area.
Where
we
will
be
doing.
We've
got
some
superheroes
coming
out.
We
will
have
a
kids
circuit
challenge
where
they
will
get
to
dribble
a
soccer
ball
around
some
cones.
Do
some
jump?
Roping
have
a
chance
to
earn
a
medal.
K
We're
also
going
to
be
honoring
our
survivors,
those
who
have
experienced
a
cardiac
event
and
live
to
come
out
the
other
side
of
that
our
last
50
yards
of
the
walk
itself,
as
we
walk
through
downtown,
will
be
what
we
call
our
survivor,
Lane
and,
as
our
survivors
walk,
that
red
carpet
they'll
be
handed
a
cowbell
which
probably
you're
familiar
with
the
Saturday
Night
Live
skit
need
more
cowbell,
so
we
actually
we
do.
We
need
more
cowbell.
We
want
more
survivors
and
we
let
those
survivors
ring
out.
Their
victories,
we'll
also
be
honoring.
K
Those
that
have
passed
with
a
memorial
garden
made
out
of
red
flowers
on
the
lawn
at
Bicentennial,
Park
and
people
have
a
chance
to
plant
a
butterfly
in
honor
of
one,
a
family
or
friend
that
has
passed.
I
actually
will
be
walking
this
year
in
honor
of
my
dear
friend
Keith
McGill.
He
was
a
local
attorney
who
passed
July
1st
of
last
year
from
massive
heart
attack
at
age
39.,
so
I
want
to
honor
all
of
those
that
have
passed
and
honor
those
that
walk
that
have
survived
their
event
as
well.
J
Well,
thank
you
for
the
great
reminder
for
us
all
to
be
keeping
an
eye
on
our
health,
no
matter
what
our
age
and
our
family
history
I
know.
I
have
friends
and
family
that
have
experienced
cardiac
events,
and
it
is
very
scary
and
something
definitely
we
should
all
be
keeping
in
mind.
I
hope
it's
a
great
event
and
I
will
move
for
approval.
M
Good
afternoon
good
morning,
my
name
is
Connie
Neal
with
Perry
broadcasting.
This
is
our
I
want
to
say
17th
year
during
the
Juneteenth
at
Washington
Park
in
Oklahoma
City,
one
of
the
largest
event
in
the
city,
food,
fun,
family,
great
music,
I
I,
encourage
everyone
to
come
out.
This
experience
it
one
of
the
functional
events
that
I
won
the
things
that
I
do
love
is
the
eating
of
the
greens.
So
if
y'all
love
collard
greens
come
on
out
and
try
it
and
get
your
trophy.
E
N
Good
morning
my
name
is
Trisha.
Downey
I
am
a
new
National
events
coordinator
at
River
sport,
the
international
jet
Sports
boating,
Association,
Junior
Nationals,
is
going
to
take
place.
June
8th
through
10th.
The
first
day
is
a
times
trial,
so
each
person
races
one
at
a
time
and
then
they
get
to
practice.
The
next
two
days
will
be
a
team
racing
through
slalom
buoys
on
our
River.
N
We
have
60
participants,
ages,
10
through
17.,
mostly
families
come
down
and
we
expect
about
a
hundred
more
Spectators
I've
seen
their
web
page
they're,
filling
our
hotels,
the
RV
parks.
So
it's
usually,
we
have
rowing
at
River
sport,
but
this
is
going
to
be
a
really
exciting
fast-paced
race
and
we're
really
excited
to
have
them
any
questions.
L
N
L
All
right,
well,
I,
appreciate
that
only
reason
I
ask
is
for
anyone
who
wants
to
come
out
and
support
our
youth
to
see
when
they
are
going
to
be
on
the
river.
But
anytime
we
have
our
youth
on
the
river.
We
should
support
So.
If
you,
if
you
have
it
it's
fine,
if
you
don't.
N
I
do
actually
writer's
meeting
is
at
8
A.M,
where
they
all
gather
and
get
rules
and
at
9
A.M
motor
run
Moto
one
starts
sounds.
L
E
O
Actually
I'm
the
pride
president
Tessa
white
and
Terry
Walker's
here.
Okay,
just
want
to
say
good
morning
glad
to
be
here
with
my
favorite
city
council.
We
are,
our
event
is
going
to
be
June,
2nd,
3rd
and
4th.
It
looks
like
we
are
back
to
pre-covered
numbers
and
the
festival
vendor
booths
are
already
full.
The
parade
is
up
to
about
70
entries
already.
O
O
Thank
you
and
I
also
just
want
to
say
a
special
thank
you
to
Oklahoma
City
to
the
people
that
live
here
and
especially
the
city
council,
for
providing
a
safe
place
within
the
gay
district.
You
know
you
have
people
like
me
who
virtually
have
no
safe
places
to
go
these
days
and
I.
Just
always
am
thankful
for
all
of
you
for
providing
that
for
us,
and
thank
you
thank.
R
All
right,
so
this
is
our
our
third
year
doing
the
East
Festival.
We
start
at
three
o'clock
P.M
on
Saturday.
We
have
live
murals
I'm.
Also
on
the
mural
Syndicate
board.
We
do
a
live
mural
this
year,
we'll
have
murals
on
the
Mid-K
Beauty
Supply
we'll
have
live
music,
we'll
have
an
education
area
and
kids
area
with
the
Thunder
reading
bus,
the
Boys
and
Girls
Club
bus
will
be
there
for
Education
food
trucks.
R
A
lot
of
local
vendors
I,
don't
know,
I'm,
probably
forgetting
something,
but
this
is
our
third
year
oh
yeah
arts
for
the
kids,
but
yeah.
So
it's
it's.
Always
it's
continued
to
grow
each
year,
and
so
it's
something
that
you
know
we
want
to
continue
to
do
and
we
feel
like
this
is
going
to
be
one
of
our
biggest
years,
we're
bringing
in
Grammy
award-winning,
R,
B,
singer,
Elle,
Varner
and
then
also
do
you
smoke.
R
D
smoke
was
a
performer
on
the
Netflix
show,
with
cardi
B
and
Chance
the
Rapper
and
he's
on
the
Bel,
Air
Show
and
he's
also
a
bilingual
performer
and
a
school
teacher.
So
we're
excited
to
have
them
in
Oklahoma
to
perform.
As
well
and
I
think
that's
it
as
far
as
the
program
and
I
want
to
let
David
say
a
few
words.
Q
Good
morning,
everyone
we're
so
excited
to
really
partner
with
the
community
to
host
Juneteenth
on
the
East
again
and
I
know.
Most
of
us
are
aware
of
the
history,
but
wanted
to
highlight
it
briefly.
This
morning
in
January
of
9
of
1863,
the
Emancipation
Proclamation
went
into
effect
and
that
was
really
set
out
to
free
the
slaves
within
the
Confederate
States.
Q
So
really
this
Festival
bringing
together
the
community,
is
really
about
highlighting
American
history,
really
about
highlighting
Liberation
and
freedom
of
all
people,
and
so
we're
so
excited
to
host
this
again
on
23rd
Street
and
have
so
many
Community,
Partners
and
National
people
coming
in
for
this
festival
and
I
hope
that
you
all
will
join
us
we'll
be
out
there
all
day
throughout
the
weekend
with
various
activities.
But
I
really
hope
that
as
Oklahoma
City,
we
can
learn
from
this
history.
Q
R
We
still
have,
we
have
a
volunteer
submission
form,
that's
up
on
all
of
our
social
media,
so
we're
still
taking
volunteers.
We
have
about
I,
think
50
or
60
signed
up
right
now
so
and
as
far
as
security
presence,
I
work
really
closely,
with
Captain
George
from
okcpd
to
make
sure
that
you
know
the
area
is
secure
and
then
we
also
hire
an
extra
certified
team
as
well.
So.
L
All
right
and
one
of
the
things
I
love
about
telling
the
story
of
Juneteenth
is
the
fact
that
the
story
doesn't
end.
You
take
it
one
more
year
to
1866
for
the
Battle
of
Honey
Springs,
which
happened
on
in
Lawton,
Fort
Sill
area,
and
that's
when
we
know
the
story
of
true
emancipation
occurred
as
far
as
Juneteenth
is
concerned.
So
we
in
Oklahoma
have
a
lot
of
reasons
to
celebrate
Juneteenth,
especially
for
the
fact
that
we
can
take
that
from
Texas
and
say
it
didn't
end
there
that
most
things
actually
end
in
Oklahoma.
L
E
All
right
brings
us
to
item
F
on
the
agenda.
The
revocable
right-of-way
use
permit
with
red
coyote
rutting
and
Fitness
at
all.
The
Red
Coyote
Juneteenth
on
the
East
5K
run
June
16
2023
North,
Rhode
Island
Avenue
between
Northeast
23rd
Street
and
the
southern
property
line
of
1726
Northeast
23rd
Street.
S
Good
morning,
members
of
council,
my
name
is
John
Oz
I'm,
director
of
operations
at
Red
Coyote,
and
we
are
so
excited
to
join
JB
and
the
With
Love
Project
again
this
year
to
be
part
of
the
Juneteenth
Festival.
We
have
the
great
privilege
of
helping
kick
off
the
festivities,
with
a
5K
run
on
Friday
evening
to
get
things
started
that
week,
it's
a
free
community
event
that
celebrates
Health
and
Wellness
in
the
community.
We
had
a
wonderful
turnout
last
year
in
our
very
first
year
and
are
way
ahead
of
those
those
numbers.
S
This
year
was
a
really
exciting
time.
Folks,
from
all
over
the
city
coming
in
to
see
the
wonderful
work,
JB
and
his
team
are
doing
out
there
in
the
in
the
community
with
the
murals
and
to
be
part
of
the
really
exciting
event.
So
we
invite
you
guys
to
join
us,
run,
walk
through
the
neighborhood
in
the
Northeast
side
and
appreciate
your
support.
L
L
Yet
Don't
Clap,
yet
Don't
Clap,
yet
you
gotta
wait
till
you
see
me
out
there
first,
but
definitely
looking
forward
to
this
and
that's
the
health
and
wellness
aspect
of
our
community
and
exploring
what's
happening.
That's
the
best
part
of
why
I
enjoy
this
weekend.
In
this
event,
did
you
want
to
at
least
introduce
all
of
the
folks
that
we
have
the
crowd?
Yes,.
R
This
is
Juneteenth
committee.
We
got
Toya,
she
does
all
of
our
social
media,
Kaya
Krista
Skye,
Marie,
Ashley,
Natalie,
David,
jessetti
and
Jesse
Warren.
So
all.
R
L
I
was
gonna,
that's
why
I
was
gonna
say
these
are
folks
that
got
up
this
morning,
so
we
definitely
want
to
recognize
him
for
getting
up
early.
So
hopefully
you
all
will
come
out
and
join
us.
For
this
event,
it's
a
lot
of
fun
and
and
clearly
a
lot
of
people
came
out
last
year.
So
I'm
happy
to
hear
the
numbers
have
already
increased
and
we'll
move
forward.
Go
ahead,
go
ahead.
L
S
Go
ahead,
yeah
back
again
elected
runtoberfest!
This
will
be
about
the
ninth
year
of
this
running
and
I
think
our
seventh
over
at
fassler
Hall
in
Midtown.
This
is
a
culmination
of
our
spring
summer.
5K
couch
to
5K
training
program
celebrates
The,
Fall
season,
obviously
Health
and
Wellness
in
the
neighborhood.
A
really
nice
5K
run
starts
in
Midtown
runs
through
the
the
neighborhoods
up
there,
so
we
really
enjoy
it
every
year
to
help
partnered
with
Brooks
Sports
and
Professor
Hall
Kick
summer
kicks
off
the
holiday
season
in
the
fall.
E
E
E
B
Yes,
we
do.
We
have
one
one
presentation
here:
Angela
Pierce
is
our
assistant,
Finance,
director
and
she's,
going
to
present
this
item
on
this
debt,
and
this
is
one
that
we
will
need:
six
affirmative
votes
for
the
approval
of
our
indebtedness
and
then
seven
for
the
competitive
to
waive
competitive
bidding
because
of
the
way
that
we
manage
the
sale
for
revenue
bonds.
All
that
Angela
present.
This
item.
T
Good
morning,
Angela
Pierce
assistant,
Finance
director,
the
resolution
that
you
have
before
you
today
pertains
to
the
2023
hotel
tax
revenue
bonds.
These
are
for
the
Coliseum
project
out
of
the
fairgrounds
and
just
to
remind
you,
this
funding
is
going
to
complement
and
supplement
the
funding
that
was
approved
in
the
maps
for
program
in
2019
by
our
voters.
Here
in
Oklahoma,
City.
T
T
T
Also,
today,
you
will
be
approving
the
amendment
of
the
lease
agreement
with
the
fairgrounds,
and
so
all
that
we're
doing
is
extending
the
duration
of
that
lease
to
mirror
the
duration
for
the
maturity
on
these.
These
bonds
and
I'd
like
to
just
take
a
moment
to
thank
our
financing
team,
our
bond
counsel,
Jared
Davidson,
Dennis
Whaley
with
pfm
and
our
own
dip
manager,
Mike,
Baskin
and
the
rest
of
the
team
have
been
really
helpful.
Getting
us
to
this.
To
this
point.
T
So
with
that
I'd
be
happy
to
answer
any
questions
that
any
of
you
might
have.
E
E
E
Right,
no
one
else,
dad
Joy
ridden.
U
Just
I
was
just
wanting
to
know:
if
we're
going
to
do
it
all
all
three
of
them
at
the
same
time,
go
ahead,
K
through
whatever
it
is.
The
zoning
stuff
is
my
normal
zoning
request
because
of
the
finite
resources
that
we're
running
into
and
a
lot
of
these
for
zoning
and
everything
keep
we
keep
building
out
and
fire
police
EMS
and
all
the
others,
especially
water
sewer,
and
all
that
can't
keep
up.
U
We
can't
keep
keep
doing
this
AK,
which
is
probably
going
to
have
a
a
thing
from
housing.
Why
do
we
keep
giving
housing
more
and
more
and
more
money?
It
seems
like
every
every
meeting.
We
have
something
coming
up
with
housing
and
everything
I
understand
that
Huds
and
all
that
stuff,
but
it
seems
like
we
keep
coming.
We
keep
doing
the
round
robin
on
housing.
It
keeps
coming
back.
U
And
the
third
one
is
the
a
t
and
AV
which
should
have
been
done
about
12
years
ago.
U
A
little
story:
I
was
going
to
OSU
OKC
their
tracks
20
feet
south
of
the
the
white
line
there
for
the
tracks.
U
This
should
have
been
done
a
long
long
time
ago.
Thank
you
all
for
bringing
this
up,
but
it
should
have
been
done
a
long
time
ago.
U
Thank
you
and
the
other
one,
the
other
zoning
stuff
in
the
in
the
next
one
is
the
same
thing.
P
V
Thank
you,
councilman
Eric,
Corner
public
orchestractor,
so
we're
on
a.m.
A.M.
Okay,
am
is
a
plans
and
specifications
for
for
new
bike
lanes
and
portion
of
Trail
and
sidewalk
on
both
Grand
Boulevard
and
Independence?
This
is
actually
going
to
help
us
make
a
connection
from
The
Bert
Cooper
Trail.
That's
at
Lake,
Hefner,
all
the
way
down
to
Northwest
Expressway
in
Independence.
It's
a
part
of
a
2017
Bond
project.
Estimated
cost
is
2.8
million
dollars.
V
The
preliminary
report
for
this
project
was
approved
last
summer
in
June
of
2022,
so
these
final
plans
will
be
advertised
for
bids
to
be
received
on
June
14th
work
is
anticipated
to
begin
this
summer,
2023
and
expected
to
be
finished
by
the
end
of
the
year.
So
with
that
I'd
be
happy
to
answer
your
additional
questions,
you
might
have
yeah.
P
So
I'm
really
excited
about
it
because,
as
I
was
reviewing
the
plans
this
weekend,
it's
just
really
interesting
to
me.
Someone
would
be
able
to
get
off
the
brt
at
56
than
Independence
and
then
make
their
way
to
those
Trails
like
it's.
It's
going
to
be
a
really
interesting
connectivity
thing,
I,
guess
I.
My
question,
though,
is
if
we
approve
this
today,
do
I
know
these
are
the
final
plans.
P
Is
there
any
way
for
us
to
kind
of
sit
down
and
look
kind
of
do
a
like
a
review
of
what
you
all
are
proposing
until
it
showed
up
on
the
agenda?
I
hadn't
seen
the
final
plans.
I
guess
is
what
I'm
saying
and
I'd
like
to
be
able
to
not
like
necessarily
like
super
amend
them
or
anything,
but
I'd
like
to
better
understand
some
of
the
details
of
it.
For
instance,
and
I've
been
thinking
about
this
a
lot
at
Villa
and
Expressway,
where
I
just
saw
some
of
the
new
crosswalk
paint
go
down.
P
I
have
questions
about,
for
instance,
the
timing
of
The
Pedestrian
signal
like
how
long
those
are
going
to
last
I've
had
people
historically
Express
concern
to
me
about
how
short
those
signals,
how
short
signals
tend
to
be
for
The,
Pedestrian
and
I
just
feel
like
with
these
two
intersections,
the
one
at
Independence
and
the
one
at
Villa,
because
of
all
the
Ada
improvements
that
are
also
happening.
The
sidewalk
improvements
I
just
really
want
to
make
sure
that
we
are
doing
everything
we
can
there
to
not
just
have
the
you
know.
P
New
improvements
go
in,
but
really
have
this
as
an
opportunity
to
make
sure
that
people
who
are
crossing
those
six
Lanes
of
traffic,
don't
feel
unsafe
doing
so
and
have
a
good
sense
of
like
no.
This
is
I
can
walk
from
the
hospital
a
across
the
street
safely
or
I.
Can
bike
safely
and
I
just
haven't
had
a
time
to
dig
into
to
this
work,
and
so
I
just
want
to
I'd
like
some
time
to
do.
That
is
that
possible?
By
approving
this
or
once
I
approve
it?
Is
it
just
We're
Off
to
the
Races?
P
V
I
would
be
happy
to
sit
down
and
meet
with
you
and
we
can
go
over
the
plans
in
detail.
They
have
not
significantly
changed
the
pulmonary
report.
Really
the
plans
just
detail
all
the
things
that
are
needed
actually
for
the
contractor
to
receive
price
and
construct.
There
is
a
combination
of
Trail
there's,
a
combination
of
sidewalk
and
also
dedicated
bike
lane,
but
there's
also
some
Cheryl
along
the
Route.
It
just
depends
on
the
widths
of
the
streets
and
what
we're
able
to
be
able
to
accommodate
into
the
existing
infrastructure.
V
Regarding
the
timing
of
traffic
signals,
we
can
review
that
with
you
too.
We
can
always
receive
information
from
a
constituent
or
a
resident
if
they
have
concerns
about
a
timing
that
we
can
investigate,
but
timings
generally
are
set
some
engineering
calculations,
it's
based
on
the
width
of
the
crossing,
the
speed
of
the
traffic
and
some
other
factors
that
actually
set
those
times.
So
not
two
intersections
in
Oklahoma
City
always
have
the
exact
same
crossing
times.
There's
a
lot
of
factors
that
go
into
setting
that
Crossing
time
to
ensure
the
safety.
B
A
standard,
that's
also
something
that
we
could
approve
this
put
the
project
out
for
bid.
That's
something
that
really
the
the
actual
construction
itself
wouldn't
affect
the
timing.
That's
really
how
we
time
the
traffic
signal.
We
can
change
that
later
on
too,
so
we
wouldn't
have
to
slow
that
down,
be
able
to
proceed
with
that.
Have
the
conversation,
relations
about
that
of
how
we
retirement,
but
that
wouldn't
necessarily
affect
the
design
or
the
or
the
timing.
V
B
V
No,
we
have
the
addendum
process,
so
if
there's
something
that
we
found
that
might
be
needing
change
or
if
there's
an
error
identified
by
a
contractor,
we
can
change
it
by
addendum
during
the
bidding
process,
just
not
after
the
bid,
but
even
after
the
bid,
there's
opportunities
to
update
construction
drawings-
and
you
see
those
typically
at
the
council
level
in
the
form
of
change,
orders
and
amendments
to
the
contract.
Yeah.
P
I
appreciate
your
thinking
through
the
timing
councilman,
because
really
there
I
have
two
things:
I'd
really
like
to
dig
into,
and
one
of
them
I
do
worry,
might
change
some
of
the
budget,
but
yeah
one
is
definitely
timing,
because
when
I
go,
for
instance
to
our
nation's
capital,
Washington
DC
and
I
pressed
that
timer
60
seconds
90
seconds,
I,
don't
think
there's
anywhere
in
Oklahoma
Am
I
Wrong.
Is
there
a
one
place
in
this
city
where
we
give
60
seconds
to
cross
the
street.
V
P
And
I
really
I
I
need
to
linger
on
this
and
I
appreciate
everyone's
patience
because
I
understand
those
might
be
the
standards
but
I'd
like
to
understand
how
again
our
nation's
capital
is
able
to
60
seconds
again.
I
go
back
to
when
Jeremy
was
here
a
few
weeks
ago,
when
councilman
Stone,
Cipher,
myself,
Hinkle
and
and
councilwoman
him
and
all
took
office
again,
if
I'm
in
a
wheelchair,
and
particularly
at
a
hospital
like
literally
I,
left
the
hospital.
P
U
Baptist
hospital
I
didn't
sign
up
for
this,
but
I
can
contest
the
timing
for
the
crossing.
There
will
let
you
get
across
one
section
of
Northwest
Expressway
before
it.
It
traffic
starts
going
I've
been
there
three
or
four
times,
because
my
foot
doctor
is
at
Baptist
and
I've
gone
across
to
eat
and
everything
you
can
literally
get
get
across
to
the
halfway
mark.
And
then
you
got
you
got
to
start
dealing
with
traffic
going
on
Northwest
Expressway.
U
U
All
the
all.
The
crosswalks
needs
to
be
re-evaluated
every
one
of
them
that
has
a
Crossing
button,
because
it's
giving
priority
to
cars
literally
giving
it
giving
priority
to
cars
and
a
lot
of
people
will
pull
up
there
in
the
crosswalk
I
fight
it
every
day,
no
matter
where
I
am
in
the
city.
J
And
I
will
say
so
my
understanding
of
those
industry
standards
based
on
what
a
lot
of
what
I've
read
is
that
they
do
not
often
take
into
consideration
like
they're.
The
the
sort
of
standards
are
written
with
able-bodied.
You
know,
people
that
are
walk
much
faster
than
I
do
and
I
feel
like
I
walk
pretty
fast,
that
and
and
they
do
give
priority
to
cars
in
that
way.
Even
if
it's
not
saying
we
just
want
to
get
people
across
here
you
gotta
run
or
whatever.
J
It
is
implicitly
saying
that
I
think
if
we're
talking
about
being
an
OKC
for
all.
If
we're
talking
about
diversity,
equity
and
inclusion,
sometimes
we
have
to
go
beyond
the
industry.
Standard
and
I
know
I'm
always
forget
what
it
stands
for,
but
it's
like
Naco,
nacto
I
think
they
have
some
really
good
information
about
how
a
city
can
change
that
that
formula
to
be
more
thoughtful
about
people
who
move
slower
or
people
who
are
elderly
young
people
who
have
tiny
little
legs.
J
You
know
people
with
dogs
whatever
it
might
be
so
I
think,
and
especially
if
we're
thinking
about
the
brt
in
general,
when
we're
talking
about
those
intersections
and
making
them
more
pedestrian
friendly,
it
is
great
to
have
the
Ada
sidewalks
it's
great
to
have.
You
know
wider
sidewalks,
but
you
know
when
you
still
have
to
run
across
Expressway
or
stop
in
the
middle
of
it.
J
U
J
U
Is
a
nightmare
right
now,
yep!
That's
the
reason
why
I
fight
so
hard
for
sidewalks
and
a
lot
like
I
said
a
lot
of
these
sorry
A
lot
of
these
crosswalks,
even
even
in
downtown
right
right
here
across
from
City
Hall
to
to
the
library
it
can
be
a
nightmare
on
Sundays
and
that's
right
outside
y'all's
front
door.
Thanks.
P
I'd
like
to
do
a
real,
deep
dive
into
this,
you
know
for
four
years:
Debbie
Martin
and
Boyd
Fulton
have
asked
me:
what
are
what
is
my
priority
and
I
think
I
confused
the
holy
heck
out
of
them,
because
I
don't
have
a
priority.
I
have
intersecting
priorities,
but
at
the
heart
of
all
of
them
is
what
we
just
heard
discuss
between
these
three
folk,
and
it
is
a
wholly
new
thing
for
our
city
to
think
the
way
I'm
asking
us.
The
way
Joy
is
asking
us
the
way.
P
Councilwoman
Hammond
is
asking
us,
because
we're
already
struggling,
downtown
and
now
we're
going
to
try
and
do
this
work
outside
of
downtown
inward
too.
Then
that's
new
thinking,
especially
as
councilwoman
Hammond,
is
saying
we're
looking
at
the
national
standards
and
trying
to
challenge
them,
because
this
I'm
sorry
just
think
the
the
when
I
drove
by
the
crosswalks
at
Villa,
the
new
ones,
they're
narrow,
and
so
my
guess
is.
P
That
means
that
the
timing
to
cross
is
going
to
be
shorter
because
we're
not
thinking
about
I
think
the
wider,
probably
the
longer
so
like
the
downtown
ones,
the
big
wide
ones.
Those
are
getting
longer
so
we're
about.
We
have
now
just
put
in
crosswalks
that
are
not
going
to
be
long
enough
for
the
kids
who
are
trying
to
get
to
the
library,
the
kids
who
are
leaving
Belle
Isle
school
when
I
knocked
doors
on
both
sides
of
Northwest
Expressway.
P
Coming
up,
sharrows
are
not
very
safe
for
those
of
us
who
use
bike
for
commuter
purposes,
and
so
I
was
very
pleased
with
planning
and
Public
Works
working
with
councilwoman,
Hammond
and
I
to
look
at
how
on
Street,
Paint
or
other
things
can
work
to
narrow
the
the
road
a
bit
to
make
it
to
induce
a
driver
to
go
more
slowly
and
to
make
the
cyclists
feel
safer,
and
that
is
something
I
don't
know.
If
we've
even
looked
at
at
all
for
this
particular
route.
P
V
A
couple
of
final
comments:
just
for
consideration,
so
I
mean
when
I
mentioned
the
polymer
report.
We
have
a
very
detailed
set
of
bike
trail
and
sidewalk
Paving
plans
that
we've
coordinated
with
the
planning
department
to
ensure
that
we
do
the
best
when
we're
meeting
those
different
modes
of
transportation,
including
The
Pedestrian.
That
report
that
we
brought
to
the
council
last
year
was
was
between
planning
and
public
works.
V
The
only
last
comment
I
would
like
to
make
is
that
in
downtown
and
if
you
followed
our
traffic
commission
and
something
that
has
come
up
from
the
Commissioners,
we
are
actually
introduced
in
every
single
downtown
intersection,
LPI,
leading
pedestrian
interval
and
sewing.
You
will
find
those
just
outside
here
at
City.
Hall
as
well,
and
it
is
to
function
further
improvements
to
the
safety
of
The
Pedestrian.
V
So
if
you're
at
a
crosswalk
and
you
press
that
button
downtown
you're
going
to
notice
that
you
get
the
crosswalk
light,
while
the
lights
stay
red
for
the
vehicles
for
several
seconds
to
allow
the
pedestrians
to
enter
safely
into
that
intersection
and
to
be
seen
by
Vehicles
before
the
light
ever
turns
green
for
the
through
Direction.
So
we
are
actually
implementing
things
that
are
in
addition
to
the
industry
standards
now
they're
in
downtown
now
and
have
been
for
just
about
a
year.
V
But
we
are
looking
to
exercise
those
in
other
intersections
too,
but
it
is
based
on
having
a
higher
volume
of
pedestrian
traffic
where
those
really
work
the
best.
But
we
are
doing
a
lot
of
things
that
I
could
go
in
at
length.
But
I'd
like
to
update
you
I'm
as
a
part
of
this,
can
do
this
at
any
point.
V
P
On
that
note,
as
we
move
forward,
I
I
just
I
want
to
applaud
you
all
I
think
on
both
items
in
terms
of
the
LPI,
the
Commissioners
who've
been
doing
that
and
I
do
understand
that
there
are
some
places.
We
can't
do
the
protected
bike,
Lanes
I,
get
that
and
I
think
that's
just
fine,
but
I
think
in
each
of
those
instances.
My
challenge
now
is
that
I
think
we
have
to
go
further.
P
I,
don't
think
that
LPI,
just
a
couple
seconds,
is
getting
to
the
heart
of
what
Joy's
experience
is
a
few
seconds
versus
being
having
a
full
minute
to
cross
six
Lanes
of
traffic,
whereas
what
Joy
was
describing
and
I
saw,
we
see
it
all
the
time
people
pull
in
P.
We
have.
We
have
designed
our
streets
in
such
a
way
that
people
who
most
people
I
would
go
that
far.
Most
people
who
drive
a
vehicle
in
this
city
do
not
stop
before
a
crosswalk.
P
Like
that's,
okay.
We
know
that
and
I
think
we
have
to
I
appreciate
the
nodding
head
on
that
councilman.
We
have
to
acknowledge.
We
have
designed
a
city
that
has,
as
Joyce
said,
prioritize
the
vehicle
over
The
Pedestrian
and
they
should
not
ever
be
conflicting
with
one
another.
This
is
not
an
anti-car
rant,
it's
just
simply
all
modes
of
transportation
I
want
to
get
us
to
at
least
30
seconds
to
cross
that,
but
I
think
it's
got
to
be
60..
Someone
should
not
whether
they
are
a
child,
a
senior
and
we
have.
P
We
have
a
senior
housing
right
up
the
road
from
this
place
or
even
an
able-bodied
person.
They
should
not
press
that
button
and
then
have
to
think
about
darting
across
Northwest
Expressway,
and
the
time
is
now
to
do
this
because
of
the
brt.
The
brt
is
asking
us
to
think
differently
about
Northwest
Expressway.
That's
why
I'm
lingering
this
this?
That
service
starts
this
fall.
The
time
is
now
the
time
we
literally
passed
it
under
a
program
called
better
streets,
safer
City.
The
language
is
right.
P
There
and
I
am
asking
us
to
rise
to
that
challenge
of
a
better
Street,
safer,
City
60
seconds
to
cross
black
welded
and
Northwest
Expressway
60
seconds
across
the
Villa
Northwest
Expressway
60
seconds
across
Independence
and
Northwest
Expressway
60
seconds
across
Portland
and
Northwest
Expressway
and
60
seconds
again
for
Meridian
and
Northwest
Expressway,
otherwise,
our
nearly
28
million
dollar
investment
in
the
brt.
We
are
asking
people
who
Choice
writers,
by
the
way,
a
lot
of
them.
Choice
writers
we're
asking
people
who've,
never
rode
public
transportation.
We
are
asking
them
to
utilize
this
service.
P
They
will
not
unless
they
feel
safe
connecting
to
it.
You
will
have
a
situation
mark
my
words
where
people
will
talk
ill
of
our
brt.
The
way
they
do
currently,
unfortunately,
and
y'all,
know
I'm
a
champion
of
the
streetcar.
They
will
do
something
similar
with
that
and
I.
Just
don't
I
I
have
to
be
the
champion
right
now
on
this
that
we
pause
and
we
slow
down.
So
if
I
approve
this
right
now,
I
need
to
know
that
we
can
I
need
some
sort
of
public
guarantee
that
I
can.
P
P
B
I
mean
I
can't
guarantee
any
additional
funding
or
what
would
happen
with
it.
I
can
guarantee
we
I
could
tell
you
we'll,
have
a
conversation
about
that
and
then
look
at
those
options
of
what's
needed,
because
I
just
don't
know
what
the
options
might
be
and
what
the
effects
would
be
like
if
you're
talking
about
narrowing
roads,
there's
a
significant
effect
on
traffic
and
so
just
making
sure
that
we're
balancing
both,
but
we
can
definitely
have
a
conversation.
W
W
Not
only
are
they
not
paying
attention,
neither
is
the
traffic
and
and
I'm
curious
about
lots
of
things
about
once
you
push
that
button.
Is
it
the
same
amount
of
time
that
the
green
lights
go
in
the
opposite
direction,
as
it
is
whether
you
push
that
button
or
not,
or
does
that
button
make
it
last
longer
or
I
mean
just
the
mechanics
of
how
it
works?
I'd
be
really
interested
I'd.
V
Be
happy
to
provide
any
updates
that
the
council
wishes
just
on
any
of
the
topics
on
how
it's
done
and
how
we
can
make
change
and
again
I'd
like
to
reiterate.
There
are
signals
that
do
get
turned
in
from
time
to
time
that
have
either
malfunctioned
or
need
to
be
reassessed,
and
we
absolutely
reassess
and
reevaluate
those.
If
they're
brought
to
our
attention
that
we're
not
already
aware-
and
that's
done.
V
P
What
I'd,
like
I,
don't
actually
know
that
I
do
want
to
approve
this
day,
because
what
I'd
like
is
especially
after
hearing
councilman
Hinkle
is
I'd
like
time
for
the
council
to
have
the
sort
of
meetings
that
we're
talking
about,
but
I'd
like
to
I
really
want
to
do
a
deeper
dive
into
what
councilwoman
Hammond
is
talking
about.
I
I,
do
not
want
to
sit
in
a
meeting.
I
would
prefer
not
to
sit
in
a
meeting
where
the
words
parody
back
to
me
are
these.
P
Are
the
standards
I
want
us
to
reach
out
to
again
our
nation's
capital?
And
there
are
other
example:
cities
that
have
62nd
Crossings
90.
Second
Crossings
I
want
to
know
how
they're
doing
it
and
I
want
to
know
why
we're
not
I
want
to
know
why
we're
not
like
what
is
different.
There
is
nothing
special
about
Washington
DC,
no
offense,
there's
nothing
special,
so
I
want
to
defer
this.
Please
I'd
like
to
pull
this
out
for
a
separate
yeah.
Let's.
E
So
we
can
pull
it
out
for
a
special
vote
and
vote
by
itself.
My
concern
is
and
I
agree
with
everything
you're
saying
it's
a
it's.
A
timing
issue
is
handled
in
the
Box
right.
I
mean
there's
nothing
as
far
as
like
doing.
Timing
on
existing
changes
would
be
done
in
the
box,
so
I
didn't
like
it's
a
real
expensive
thing.
Sure
I
just
hate
that
we
would
potentially
delay
Ada
improvements,
intersection
improvements,
bike,
Lanes,
those
types
of
things.
If
we
don't
approve
it
today,.
P
Yeah,
no
that's
fair
I!
So
then,
okay,
I
just
here's.
What
I
need
please
I
need
I
would
like
a
meeting
when
we
do
a
deep
dive.
I
would
really
prefer
for
planning
to
work
with
us
on
this
I'd
love
to
see
Max
and
Justin
there,
because
I
think
this
is
a
public
works
and
planning
conversation
where
all
of
us
can
bring
our
minds
to
that.
That
table
I'd
like
to
have
that
and
then
I
do
think
it's
worth
having.
P
Maybe
some
Council
briefings
that
address
councilman
Hinkles
kind
of
question,
because
yeah
I
mean
There
Are
Places
all
across
it's
not
just
word
two.
But
what
I'm
asking
us
to
do
and
I
think
what
Joy
is
asking
us
to
do
is
start
thinking
hey
what
are
the
best
practice?
We've
learned
downtown.
What
are
some
other
cities
doing
and
let's
start
spreading
that
a
bit
further
so
between
now
and
I
really
appreciate
the
date
you
mentioned
councilman
I,
think
between
now
and
when
the
bid
comes
back.
P
D
Think
you're,
yeah
I
think
you're
talking
about
a
big
policy
decision
and
when
we
start
looking
at
that,
that's
not
something
that
happens
overnight,
because
we
have
to
have
in
input
from
our
our
wardate
and
my
wardate
individuals
from
businesses
and
from
other
companies
that
may
be
affected
by
these
changes.
And
so
I'd
like
to
see
this
move
forward
today.
Just
because
it's
it
enhances
Bert,
Cooper,
Trails,
so
much
and
and
so
I'd
like
to
see
it
move
forward.
P
Let
me
also
just
say
with
someone
else
want
to
say
something,
but
let
me
also
just
say
this
councilman
there
might
come
an
impasse
where
maybe
some
of
the
Falcon,
maybe
a
majority
of
Ward
8
I,
doubt
it,
but
maybe
they're
like
cars
over
pedestrians,
and
if
that's
the
case,
then
what
I
would
ask
is
that
is
not
how
we're
that's,
not
how
the
majority
of
word
two
things.
I
am
aware.
P
There
are
some
people
in
word
two
who
just
think
every
time
I
mention
people
in
wheelchairs,
people
on
bikes,
people
on
foot
they're
just
like
here.
He
goes
again,
but
it's
for
a
reason.
The
majority
of
my
people
are
asking
for
it,
so
it
might
be
that
what's
you
know,
good
over
here
might
be
different
over
here,
but
we
need
to
figure
that
out
and
work
accordingly.
So
but
I
but
I
say
I
challenge
it,
because
one
might
not
think
that
119th
and
Western
has
the
same
concern
that
a
23rd
and
Classen
does.
P
We,
let's
just
go
I'm,
trusting
this
process
that
we
can
have
some
briefings
between
now
and
the
the
bid
and
but
even
separate
than
that,
I'd
like
to
do
a
deep
dive
with
planning
Public
Works,
to
really
look
at
both
the
traffic
signal
stuff
and
seeing
what
some
on-street
paint
on
a
road
like
independent
I.
Just
you
know
what
I
mean
we're
not
talking
MacArthur
coming
for
them
later,
but
but
that
seems
like
a
place
where
we
can
do
these
sort
of
you
know,
experiments
and
see
what
happens.
Okay,.
E
E
E
And
the
concurrent
stock
it
has
passed,
brings
us
to
item
11
items
requiring
separate
votes
item
a
is
deferred
and
Item.
B
is
an
ordinance
on
Final
hearing
recommended
for
approval
on
1940
rezoning
one
zero
one:
zero
one
Southwest
59th
street
from
R1
single
family
residential
and
put
1812
planned
unit
development
districts
to
PUD
1940,
planned
unit
development
District
in
Ward,
3.,
councilwoman,
Peck,.
E
E
B
This
item
was
actually
presented
previously,
and
so
this
is
the
public
hearing
then,
and
the
final
hearing
and
the
approval
we
are
requesting
an
emergency
on
this
item
so
that
it
can
move
forward.
There's
a
companion
item
behind
that
that
we'll
have
more
information
on,
but
we
have
presented
this
one
previous
previously.
How.
B
Q
Y
Suttle
with
the
alliance
for
economic
development,
I
I
will
say,
this
item
is
also
I
believe
dependent
and
Kenny
may
have
to
answer
this
on
the
previous
item
being
approved.
However,
I'll
go
ahead
and
give
you
the
information
on
it,
as
the
previous
item
would
be,
the
final
approval,
the
changes
of
the
Innovation
District
TIF
district
and
one
of
those
was
creating
a
small
sales
tax,
increment
District
around
the
convergence
project.
Y
So
the
item
G
is
actually
a
resolution
that
determines
what
that
formula
is,
which
saying
it
would
only
be
two
percent
of
the
city's
sales
tax
for
construction,
and
it
would
set
the
time
that
that
begins
as
tomorrow.
This
was
one
of
the
reasons
we
were
asking
for.
The
Emergency
on.
The
previous
item
was
just
trying
to
not
lose
another
30
days
of
sales
tax
and
just
as
a
reminder,
this
was
something
as
part
of
that
deal.
Y
There
was
some
funds
that
were
loaned
from
ocdt
to
the
Redevelopment
authority
to
help
provide
part
of
the
incentive
on
that
and
the
this
was
part
of
what
we're
using
to
repay
some
of
those
funds.
Y
In
addition,
it
also
authorizes
the
mayor
to
make
an
application
for
the
leverage
act
which
would
be
you
know
again,
if
approved,
that's
something
we
still
have
to
go
through
with
the
state
and
seek
approval.
It
would
allow
us
to
match
dollar
for
dollar
any
of
these
funds
that
are
portioned.
So
that's
really
what
we're
doing
with
this
resolution
I'd
be
happy
to
answer
any
other
questions.
E
E
E
E
E
We
are
on
item
11l2.
E
L
Go
forward
I've
already,
and
this
is
L.
Okay
I've
already
talked
to
councilwoman
Hammond
about
my
desire
to
not
support
this
allocation,
but
I
do
want
to
read
a
letter
that
I
received
from
community
and
unfortunately,
there's
no
name
attached
because
they
want
to
remain
anonymous
for
security
of
of
people
that
they
know,
and
this
is
I'm
going
to
read
it
from
beginning
to
end,
because
I
think
this
is
very
important
as
we
continue
to
make
decisions
based
on
our
Oklahoma,
City,
Housing,
Authority
and
allocating
funds.
L
This
is
a
difficult
letter
to
write,
but
I
feel
compelled
to
contact
your
office
concerning
the
mismanagement
of
maps,
City
funds.
You
recently
awarded
funding
to
the
OKC
housing
authority
to
assist
in
the
housing
of
disadvantage.
Okc
residents
in
the
homeless,
the
executive
director
hired
a
consultant
to
manage
this
new
HUD
project.
This
was
done
without
competitive
bidding
or
approval
of
the
Board
of
Commissioners.
L
This
individual
was
on
staff
at
one
time,
but
he
did
not
wish
to
be
consistently
in
the
office,
but
elsewhere
he
hired
as
a
staff
position
and
individual
to
handle
the
day-to-day
operation
of
com.
Conversion
of
Housing
Authority
property
to
private
funded
property
to
lease
the
Section
8
housing.
These
projects
have
been
troubled
from
the
onset
due
to
lack
of
supervision.
Funds
have
been
spent
without
Direction
Housing,
Authority
property
designated
for
future.
Conversion
to
the
new
program
have
been
left
to
deteriorate,
residents
needs
for
safe
and
affordable
housing
have
been
ignored.
L
There
has
not
been
an
independent
audit
of
spending
on
the
funds
they
have
received.
The
consultant
is
not
of
the
best
moral
character,
and
there
is
some
personal
things
that
I
unders
that
I
will
not
read
about
this
person,
and
his
assistant
was
recently
also
involved
in
some
things
that
I
will
not
read
and
I've
been
informed
that
this
person
Still
Remains
on
the
payroll
in
some
form,
possibly
another
consultant.
The
executive
direct
director
has
no
concept
of
the
intricacies
of
the
HUD
program.
L
He
manages
his
solution
is
to
hire
meaning
upper
meaningless
upper
management
positions
which
provide
nice
graphs,
charts
and
speeches
to
the
Board
of
Commissioners.
He
does
not
appreciate
the
staff
necessary
to
maintain
Authority
property.
In
fact,
he
treats
them
with
contempt.
Many
decent,
hard-working
individuals
who
cared
and
worked
hard
to
maintain
Authority
property
throughout
the
years
have
let
the
authority
because
of
his
attitude.
L
However,
in
an
effort
to
be
fair
to
the
executive
director,
he
may
be
subject
to
inaccuracies
presented
to
him
in
order
to
justify
their
positions,
but
this
has
caused
problems
that
exist
from
the
top
down
in
this
organization,
and
mid-level
employees
cannot
affect
any
change
without
facing
retribution.
This
letter
was
prompted
in
an
effort
to
change
the
current
course
of
deterioration
of
a
fine
program
and
stop
Authority
property
from
deteriorating
to
a
point
where
the
residents
live
in
slum
conditions.
L
So
that
is
enough
for
me
to
say:
I
will
no
longer
support
any
funding
that
goes
to
the
Oklahoma
City
Housing,
Authority
and
I
am
expecting
for
us
because
of
this
now
saying
and
calling
by
name
maps
and
city
funding,
that
we
will
be
working
on
an
audit
of
our
maps
and
city
funding.
That
is,
to
support
anything
that
goes
towards
the
efforts
of
the
Oklahoma
City
Housing
Authority
and
I'll
close
with
that.
E
Before
we
move
to
item
M,
let's
go
back
to
f
and
g.
Please.
E
X
L
L
L
Y
Yes,
so
councilman
f
is
the
larger
changes
that
were
presented
several
weeks
ago
on
the
Innovation
District
Tiff
changes
as
a
whole,
which
does
include
sales
tax
increment
for
convergence.
G
was
the
resolution
that
would
set
the
formula
for
that
and
set
an
effective
date
of
tomorrow.
If
you
all
adopt
this
and
adopted
it
with
emergency,
if
the,
if
it
is
adopted
but
not
adopted
with
emergency,
it
would
still
go
into
effect
just
30
days
later.
Kenny.
L
I
knew
I
had
pers
I
personally
had
some
questions
from
the
last
time
that
we
had
this
conversation
as
far
as
the
the
funding,
and
also
ensuring
that
the
programming
that
we're
talking
through,
especially
for
my
education
committee,
that
we're
going
to
get
increased
in
that,
as
well
as
the
other
ways
that
this
Tiff
is
going
to
have
a
project
area
for
infrastructure
that
supports
more
of
the
community.
More
so
than
we're.
Giving
all
of
these
incentives
for
for
the
development.
Y
That's
the
budget,
so
it
still
has
to
actually
generate
the
dollars,
and
you
know
we
would
continue
the
same
process.
We've
done
with
working
with
the
education
committee
to
come
up
with
a
plan
and
try
to
ensure
and
plan
out.
You
know,
as
funding
is
available,
how
we
split
that
up
between
those
different
uses,
but
that's
something
we'll
be
happy
to
continue.
Having
conversations
on.
L
Well,
I
want
to
continue
to
give
my
reservations
and
my
concerns
as
far
as
the
Innovation
District
remains
in
in
that
is
entirely
because
I
know
this
was
created
before
I
came
to
to
obtain
office.
But
as
we
move
forward,
a
lot
of
the
things
that
have
taken
place
thus
far
are
very
concerning
to
me,
as
far
as
how
we
benefit
the
neighborhood,
how
we
benefit
the
residents
and
how
the
community
is
also
going
to
thrive.
L
Just
as
much
as
we
say,
we
want
this
development
in
the
developing
of
innovation,
District
to
do
and
I'm
very
careful
because
of
the
systemic
things
and
historic
things
that
have
already
taken
place
in
this
specified
part
of
our
community
as
well.
So
that's
where
I
have
difficulty
as
far
as
wanting
to
support,
but
having
higher
reservations
of
support,
then
I
do
the
support.
Y
I
told
you
before
I'm
very
committed
to
continuing
having
conversations
with
you
and
the
members
of
that
committee,
and
you
know
trying
to
work
together
to
come
up
with
a
plan
that
benefits
the
students
and
teachers
in
that
area.
As
was
designed
in
this
Tiff
plan,
so
still
committed
to
doing
that.
L
Okay,
my
last
one
is
if
we
go
through
as
we
continue
through
this
process
and
we
need
to
come
back
to
the
drawing
board
as
far
as
this
Tiff
is
concerned,
I
want
to
ensure
that
we
do
that,
depending
on
what
it
is,
because
I
understand
we're
in
the
beginning
stages
of
this
piece
of
it.
But
I
know
as
we
move
along
and
and
go
through
this
process.
Z
P
Same
right
and
I'll
say
yes,
but
also
to
Echo
the
councilwoman.
Yes,
with
these
reservations
and
I
would
like
I,
don't
know
if
I'm
guessing
there
were
going
to
be
updates
to
us
about
the
sort
of
work,
especially
the
school
and
the
kids
will
Council
be
receiving
these
sort
of
updates
on
where
we
are.
Y
E
Y
Y
That
again
was
this
was
so
that
it
would
be
in
effect
immediately
and
part
of
that
was
the
sales
tax
Tiff
around
convergence,
and
that
was
part
of
that's
what
the
next
item
G
is
really
related
to,
and
that's
part
of
trying
to
make
sure
we
don't
just
lose
another
month's
worth
of
sales
tax.
What.
Y
It's
only
on
the
construction,
so
that
construction's
already
started.
So
you
know,
we've
lost
some
opportunity
already.
What
we're
trying
to
do
was
capture
from
you
know
if
this
was
approved
immediately,
be
able
to
capture
that
sales
tax
immediately,
because
we're
going
to
make
an
application
for
the
state
leverage
act
which
matches
dollar
for
dollar.
If
approved,
you
have
to
go
through
the
process
and
get
approved
if
it
doesn't
pass
with
emergency
because
it
already
passed,
it
would
just
go
into
effect
30
days
from
publication,
so
we
would
lose
that
time.
Period
of
sales,
tax.
E
L
And
I
did
vote,
but
I
just
want
to
express
my
concerns
again
and
I'll
be
done
talking
about
Innovation
district
for
a
while,
but
I
just
want
to
again
express
my
reservations
of
how
we
Throw
the
baby
in
the
bathwater
to
certain
projects
and
things,
whereas
our
community
still
needs
assistance
and
that
same
development
and
the
increment
and
the
the
project
area
infrastructure
that
these
places
and
these
tips
can
also
provide.
So
I
expect
the
same
type
of
baby
and
bath
water.
A
G
E
E
D
Thank
you
vice
mayor,
a
couple
of
things:
Sunday
I
came,
downtown,
I
was
going
to
get
prepared
for
city
council
and
everything
was
blocked
off
to
my
building,
which
is
a
bank
first
Tower,
but
I
was
able
to
sneak
around
and
get
in
the
back
and
go
into
the
parking
garage
at
Santa
Fe
and
a
Park
which
is
where
I
park
Monday
through
Friday
and
walked
up
the
stairs
looked
out.
D
There
are
these
big
bank
first
letters
on
the
top
of
the
Santa
Fe
parking
garage
and
and
here's
a
helicopter
hooking
up
to
take
up
irst.
It
was
quite
a
sight
and
I
took
some
great
pictures,
but
the
point
of
it
is
I
want
to
thank
Bank
First
for
they're
just
about
to
complete
the
tower
and
it's
taken
three
and
a
half
years.
D
Is
they
had
the
foresight
to
buy
all
the
thousands
and
thousands
of
Windows
that
they
replaced
before
building
materials
skyrocketed
and
before
there
was
a
shortage
of
labor
to
install,
so
that
was
really
smart
and
and
then
the
second
thing
is
if
we
would
not
have
sold
them
not
for
cost
for
its
fair
market
value,
the
Santa
Fe
parking
garage,
they
would
not
have
purchased
the
building
because
they
wouldn't
have
anywhere
for
those
425
employees
to
park.
So
it's
a
great
moment
for
our
city.
It's
a
great
building.
D
L
The
two
I
had
were
Juniors,
so
they
still
have
another
year
of
school
left
to
to
be
great
and
do
some
more
great
things,
so
just
excited
for
their
journey
and
I
came
to
that
lunch
and
a
little
late,
because
I
was
invited
to
the
Oklahoma
jail
and
prison
ministry
luncheon,
which
was
at
the
bank
first
building
that
was
pre-signage
because
even
for
myself,
I
was
like
where's.
The
sign
I
know
the
building,
but
I
didn't
decide.
L
Wasn't
there
yet,
but
I
knew
what
building
it
was,
but
the
renovations
are
beautiful
for
me
going
in
and
seeing
and
just
friendly
as
far
as
when
I
walked
in
the
door.
But
I
mentioned
this
Oklahoma
jail
and
prison
Ministries
because
they
do
advocacy
and
they
are
implemented
in
our
County
detention
or
County
jails
across
the
state
and
and
their
work
is
important,
and
we
want
to
highlight
that
to
ensure
that
we
have
opportunities
for
folks
who
are
being
detained
in
our
our
County
Detention
Center
to
have
an
outlet
whatever
that
may
be.
L
As
far
as
these
prison
Ministries
are
concerned,
I
also
want
to
thank
our
development
services,
code
enforcement
division.
L
It
was
an
almost
standing
room
only
for
folks
to
come
out
and
just
understand
the
process
of
code
enforcement
and
to
answer
questions
so
very
grateful
to
be
a
part
of
that
conversation
and
just
listen
and
hear
what
some
of
our
concerns
are.
As
far
as
our
residents
that
live
in
our
more
rural
parts
of
our
city.
That
experience
a
lot
of
different
things
when
it
comes
to
code
enforcement
within
our
Urban
core.
So
I
just
want
to
want
us
to
be
mindful
of
that
as
well.
L
Sunday
able
to
spend
time
with
Victory
Outreach
Church
they
have
planted
here
in
Oklahoma
City
from
I
think
they
were
birthed
out
of
out
of
California.
So
that
just
tells
you
that
the
work
in
in
the
many
people
who
are
migrating
for
different
reasons
to
Oklahoma
City
but
Pastor
Martin
his
wife
and
family
and
that
church
family
they
have
now
planted
their
Church
on
Northwest
Expressway
right
after
you
get
to
the
nice
new
bridge
area
and
very
excited
for
the
work
that
they're
going
to
do
to
impact
our
community
in
that
area.
L
Weren't
friendly
calls
so
to
Miss
Beverly
to
James
to
Boyd
and
Miss
Debbie.
Thank
you
so
much
for
for
your
work
and
and
continued
work
to
support
us
as
council
members,
but
specifically
for
me
and
that
PUD
that
we
had
to
go
through
for
the
past
couple
months
and
also
just
want
to
say
Juneteenth
on
the
East
5K
I'm.
Looking
for
y'all
I'll
have
my
shorts
I
just
got
me
some
hokas,
so
I'm
ready
some
running
shoes
I'm
ready
to
go
so
please
join
us.
J
Yeah
I
would
just
two
things.
First,
I
want
to
highlight
a
Highland
event
that
some
of
our
city
staff
are
taking
part
in
next
Tuesday
May
30th
in
the
evening
5
30
to
7
at
Dunlap
cotting
on
Sheridan
Oklahoma
City
beautiful,
has
partnered
up
with
some
folks
from
our
parks
and
planning
departments
to
host
an
event
called
building
sustainable
cities,
City
Planning
101.
So
for
anyone
who's
curious
about.
J
You
know
that
behind
the
scenes
planning
process,
when
you
know
when
a
project
gets
proposed-
and
you
see
all
the
the
fancy
renderings
and
and
stuff
the
presentations
kind
of
what
goes
on
before
that,
particularly
as
it
relates
to
sustainability,
and
so
we
have
Tio
Bowman
from
the
planning
department,
Rachel
Ware
from
our
parks
department
and
then
Max
Harris,
also
from
the
planning
department
to
to
lead
that,
and
so
just
really
up
for
anyone
out
there.
Who
is
interested
in
kind
of?
What
does
that
look
like
you
know?
J
How
can
they
be
involved
in,
especially
as
it
relates
to
sustainability?
So
thank
you
so
much
to
OKC
beautiful
for
putting
that
together.
I
hope
folks
can
go
join
and
then
last
week,
I
had
the
pleasure
of
attending
an
event
hosted
by
a
group
called
shred.
This
stigma
and
I
just
wanted
to
talk
about
it
for
a
second,
because,
especially
as
we've
seen
sort
of
what
appears
from
where
I
sit,
a
more
aggressive
criminalization
of
people
who
use
drugs.
J
Events
related
to
overdoses
in
the
community
I
think
it's
really
important
that
when
we
think
about
drug
use,
the
criminalization
of
drug
use
that
we
remember
that
it's
not,
it
really
should
not
be
a
criminal
issue.
It's
a
public
health
issue
and
so
Shred
the
stigma
hosted
an
event
last
week,
just
kind
of
bringing
a
bunch
of
different
partners
together
in
the
community
to
celebrate
some
of
the
work
they've
been
able
to
do
this
year.
J
So,
for
anyone
not
familiar
with
the
term
harm
reduction,
it's
the
philosophy
and
the
mindset
and
the
practice
of
meeting
people
who
use
drugs,
whether
those
drugs
are
criminalized
or
not.
Probably,
everyone
in
this
room
is
a
person
who
used
some
kind
of
drug,
whether
they're,
using
it
chaotically
or
in
a
prescripted
way
or
through
our
coffee.
J
You
know
every
drug,
every
chemical
we
put
in
our
body
has
some
kind
of
interaction
with
both
our
physical
and
social
worlds
and
there's
often
harm
associated
with
that,
and
the
idea
of
harm
reduction
is
to
mitigate
the
harm
again,
no
matter
what
type
of
drug
you
use.
So
a
lot
of
what
they
do
is
providing
Narcan
to
people.
J
Narcan
is
a
harm
reduction
tactic
to
help
bring
people
bring
people
back
if
they
are
in
the
midst
of
an
overdose,
they
provide
fentanyl
test
strips,
so
people
can
test
drugs
before
they
use
them,
particularly
if
they
don't
know
where
that
drug
is
coming
from,
who
made
it
what
might
be
in
it.
They
also
provide
things
like
emerging
emergency
contraception
and
a
whole
host
of
other
harm
reduction
supplies
for
people
anonymously
in
the
community.
They
also
or
not,
host
I
would
say,
but
they
they
provide
a
a
service
of
serene
syringe
cleanups.
J
So
you
know
I
know
I've
heard
this
issue
I've
seen
it
sometimes,
you
know
walking
through
a
park
or
parking
lot
somewhere
a
lot
of
potentially
needles
glass
and
they
they
have
the
the
tools
and
the
safety
equipment
to
go.
You
know
wherever
that
might
be.
You
can
just
go
to
their
website
at
shredthestigma.org,
okay.org,
sorry,
Shred,
the
stigma
ok.org
and
submit
where
it
is,
you
know,
cross
streets,
description
of
where
whatever
it
might
be
and
they
can
go
and
safely
clean
those
up
and
get
them
disposed
of
through.
J
You
know
the
proper
channels
of
of
getting
rid
of
of
sharp.
So
you
know
the
the
goal
is
really
to
meet
people
where
they
are,
and
one
of
the
great
things
I
think
about
this.
This
event
that
got
hosted
last
week
is
the
repeat:
treatment
providers.
There
were
community
volunteers
that
work
with
the
the
program,
but
they
had
two
people
that
spoke
that
in
this
past
year
have
gotten
connected
to
Community
Resources.
J
One
of
them
was
able
to
go
to
treatment,
but
because
they
were
connecting
with
people
through
shed
the
stigma,
they
said
somebody
showed
up
to
where
I
was
staying.
They
didn't
judge
me.
They
helped
me
with
supplies,
they
kept
me
alive
and
they
sat
down
and
talked
with
me
about
what
it
is.
I
was
going
through
and
after
a
few
months
of
talking
with
them.
After
some
events
in
my
own
life,
I
asked
them.
J
How
do
I
get
connected
to
longer
term
supports
and
one
of
them
shared
their
I
think
it
was
six
or
seven
months
of
sobriety
had
gotten
into
treatment.
So
that's
just
taking
away
that
arbitrary
line
of
waiting
for
people
to
quote
unquote
be
ready
for
treatment,
because
even
if
you
get
to
that
ready
point,
it
is
a
long
road,
especially
if
you
don't
have
those
connections,
especially
if
you're
isolated
from
the
community
to
find
your
way.
Even
if
you
have
connection
sometimes
it
is
incredibly
difficult
to
navigate
your
way
into
treatments.
J
J
J
You
know
it
does
not
get
get
people
to
safety.
Get
people
to
Wellness
and
the
more
that
we
use
that
approach,
the
more
we're
just
doing
the
same
old
things
that
we
that
have
not
been
working,
we've
been
doing,
the
War
on
Drugs
for
longer
than
I've
been
alive,
and-
and
it's
not
better
and
it's
and
it's
well
beyond
time
that
we
really
I
think
as
a
community
Embrace
a
public
health
approach
to
public
health
problems
instead
of
a
criminalization
approach
that
just
exacerbates
the
the
other
harms
associated
with
that
with
those
behaviors.
J
So
I
just
wanted
to
lift
them
up
again.
I
think
that
needle
cleanup
service
is
so
valuable
because
again
they
can
do
it
safely
and
appropriately
and
make
sure
that
those
those
things
are
away
from
you
know
potential
harm
to
the
community,
but
also
get
them.
You
know
again
those
connections
to
people
in
the
community
that
that
want
to
see
something
different.
So
thank
you.
W
I'm
going
to
tag
on
excuse
me,
the
councilman
Stone
Cipher's
comments
about
the
bank.
First
Tower
I
have
intimate
knowledge
of
the
last
three
and
a
half
years
of
what's
gone
on
there
and
as
I
was
on
the
roof
of
the
Santa
Fe
garage
at
eight
o'clock
on
Sunday
morning
watching
the
helicopter
set
the
letters
it
struck
me
that
the
owner,
the
management
company,
the
construction
company,
the
architect
and
the
sign
company
are
all
Mio
made
in
Oklahoma,
and
that
made
me
proud.
So
that's
it.
P
Vice
mayor
first
and
I
have
a
few
things.
First
I'd
like
to
congratulate
and
thank
the
students
from
U.S
Grant
High
School.
Congratulations
on
their
graduation
I
have
former
Middle
School
College
Prep
students
from
Jefferson
Middle
School,
who
graduated
this
year,
and
it
actually
reached
out
and
asked
me
to
deliver
the
keynote
and,
while
I
feel
pretty
good
about
keynote
speeches,
you
know
teach
English,
so
I've
done
some
homework
on
how
to
do
it.
Read
my
Aristotle
nerves.
Never
knew
a
word.
I
mean
I
got
up
in
front
of
those
kids.
P
I,
don't
know
B
minus
speech.
It
wasn't
my.
It
was
not
my
favorite,
but
it
was
I
mean
it
was
just
because
it
was
so
meaningful.
I
mean
my
God.
These
are
kids,
I
knew
as
7th
graders
and
eighth
graders
their
families.
Were
there
came
up.
Do
you
remember
me
and
I'm
like,
of
course,
I?
Remember
you
parent
teacher
conferences,
you
know
I'm
just
so
proud
of
them
and
one
of
those
students
Dayanara.
P
She
spoke
right
before
me
as
their
valedictorian
and
I.
Just
in
in
her
remark,
she
said:
I
never
thought
I
would
be
in
this
role
and
when
I
had
the
chance
to
speak.
My
first
words
where
I
knew
when
I
met
that
girl
as
a
seventh
grader
like
this,
is
where
it's
heading
be
ready:
city
manager
and
Brent,
Bryant
and
Laura
Johnson,
because
Dayanara
is
going
to
school
for
finance
and
I.
P
They
were
on
student
council
there
now
that
that's
a
wild
thing
to
see
students
with
names
like
Sierra
and
Jaden
I,
just
and
anyone
else
who
was
there
that
night
I
just
really
appreciate
that
invite
I'll
say,
though
I
was
a
little
dismayed
that,
during
my
remarks
to
the
generals,
I
asked
them
to
raise
their
hand.
How
many
of
them
know
what
a
city
councilor
does
and
I
believe
one
student
one
shot
their
hand
up
and
I
didn't
judge,
because
then
I
asked
them.
P
How
many
of
them
know
Bricktown
and
have
been
to
Bricktown
and
oh,
oh
boy,
the
hands
just
go
up
in
the
air
and
I
was
like.
Well,
then,
you
know
city
council,
because
your
Canal,
your
Trails,
your
scissortail
Park
and
you
could
see
the
light
bulbs
going
off
and
then
I
just
made
it
as
simple
as
how
many
of
you
purchased
something
in
the
last
few
days.
Well,
then,
that's
your
firefighter
salary
and
I,
just
I
think
that
is
wild
that
just
like
me,
23
years
ago.
P
No
one
taught
me
what
city
council
is
how
it
works,
but
it
a
I
would
argue
the
most
effective
level
of
government
in
Oklahoma
and
meaningful.
It
makes
everyday
things
possible,
like
the
revitalization
of
Liberty
and
I
I.
Just
keep
beating
this
drum.
I
really
worry
and
I
think
there's
a
role
for
city
council
to
play.
Beyond
youth
Council.
P
It
is
not
okay
in
my
mind
that
an
entire
class
of
not
dumb
people
would
graduate
high
school
at
a
an
institution
like
Grant
and
not
know
what
city
council
is
not
know
what
it
does.
That's
wild
I.
P
Just
think
that
is
a
indictment
on
us
as
adults,
but
all
it
took
was
in
seventh
grade
and
eighth
grade
for
me
saying
to
these
kids,
what
we
do
and
then
giving
them
pointers
on
bringing
binders
so
they're
organized
helping
them
with
their
note-taking
skills,
helping
them
with
their
reading
and
writing
skills,
and
they
went
on
to
be
presidents
of
their
student
council
valedictorians
and
then
everything
in
between
I
mean
you
just
have
to
believe
in
these
kids
and
tell
them
the
truth
of
how
it
works,
but
apparently
we're
not
doing
that
enough,
but
I
saw
that
bright
light
in
Dayanara
and
Jesus
and
Gladys
and
Sierra
and
Jaden.
P
Secondly,
but
relatedly
there
was
an
article
that
was
pretty
heavy
on
my
mind
because
of
my
former
Middle
School
teaching
work,
but
there
was
a
guardian
article
and
just
some
patients
here,
I'm
going
to
read
a
few
paragraphs
from
it.
This
is
a
quote
from
Erica
Palmer
who's,
a
staff
attorney
at
advocates
for
children,
which
is
a
New
York
City
non-profit
that
helps
students
in
foster
care
and
I.
P
Had
many
students
who
were
in
foster
care
when
I
was
taught
at
Jefferson,
and
she
had
this
to
say
quote:
if
you
look
at
PTSD
symptoms
and
diagnoses,
you'll
see
a
rate
in
children
in
foster
care.
That's
similar
to
combat
veterans.
People
ask
me
all
the
time.
If
the
subject
of
homelessness
comes
up
the
one
group,
almost
everyone
can
agree
when
it
comes
to
homelessness,
that
they
have
a
concern
like
well.
How
many
veterans
are
on
the
street?
How
many
veterans
it's
horrible,
that
our
veterans
should
be
homeless?
I
agree.
P
At
the
same
time,
though,
we
have
kids
who
have
gone
through
the
foster
care
system
and
their
experiences
you
just
heard
are
similar
to
what
a
combat
veteran
experiences.
That's
not
my
opinion,
and
that
really
worries
me
because
of
the
next
thing
it
impacts
them
internally,
you
might
see
a
child
with
their
head
down
on
a
desk
or
with
their
hoodie
tied
up
over
their
face,
they're
physically
present,
but
they're,
not
learning
and
then
they're
left
to
fall
through
the
cracks.
That's
the
end
of
the
quote,
and
then
this
is
the
guardian.
P
People
in
the
system
are
in
dire
need
of
mental
health
care
and
here's
the
rest
of
it.
If
we
could-
and
here
it's
those
Solutions.
This
is
not,
and
I
really
want
us
to
think
about
the
mental
health
component
of
maps
for
our
youth
centers,
but
then
also
think
of
the
lack
of
kids
who
Rose
their
hand
to
even
know
what
city
council
does.
So
if
they
don't
know
what
city
council
does,
that
means
they
don't
know
about
Maps.
That
means
they
don't
know
about
these
projects
that
are
coming.
P
P
P
P
P
I
won't
say
their
name,
so
they
come
into
that
system
with
trauma
and
then,
when
they're
in
the
system,
they
encounter
further
abuse
or
unsafe
condition
in
many
foster
homes
and
a
significant
number
of
children
in
the
foster
care
system
end
up,
dropping
out
of
school
as
Neely
reportedly
did
so.
I
really
worry
and
I
know
I
keep
beating
this
drum,
but
I
really
worry
having
participated
in
the
point
in
time.
Count
that
too
many
of
the
folk
are
experiencing
homelessness
in
our
city.
P
Are
people
who
went
through
this
foster
care
system
they've
slipped
through
these
cracks?
We
have
not
prioritized
that
support
for
them
when
they
leave
the
foster
care
system
and,
while
I
love,
that
dinar
is
the
valedictorian.
There
are
a
lot
of
other
students
who
are
now
about
to
leave
Grant
and
many
of
our
other
high
schools
who
don't
even
know
what
city
council
is,
do
not
know
what
Maps
is.
P
Do
you
know
what
do
not
know
what
Mental
Health
Association
is
do
not
even
know
these
battles
that
we're
having
about
is
the
Oklahoma
Fair
Housing
Authority,
the
right
operator,
I'm,
just
I
really
worry
about
this,
and
until
now,
I
still
have
not
heard
from
this
body.
What
our
plan
is
to
make
sure
we're
connecting
these
kids
and
their
families
to
the
work.
That's
coming.
P
So
that's
my
challenge,
I'd
like
to
know
what
that
would
be,
and
now
that
Chelsea
Banks
is
going
to
be
representing
maps
for
in
word
two
and
we'll
take
that
seat.
This
summer,
I'd
like
for
this
summer
to
kind
of
hear
more
from
director,
Todd
and
the
city
manager's
office,
about
and
from
the
school
districts,
I
mean
kind
of
in
the
way
that
maps
for
kids
brought
the
school
districts
together.
P
I
I
just
would
like
to
know
what
what
coordination
efforts
we're
planning
to
do,
because
I
don't
want
a
situation
where
someone
I
taught
who
used
to
keep
their
head
down
on
their
desk,
finds
themselves
dead
on
on.
You
know
on
our
streets
because
someone
felt
threatened
by
them
as
Jordan
Neely
did.
That
is
my
sincere
worry
just
as
much
as
I'm
worried
about
someone
like
Joy
crossing
the
street.
P
E
X
I
am
here
regarding
the
opioid
abatement.
Grant
money
and
I
was
informed
that
it
was
awarded
to
the
state
and
then
distributed
to
the
political
subdivisions
and
upon
further
investigation,
I
learned
that
it
was
going
to
be
used
for
City
of
Oklahoma
city
employees
and
I
I
just
have
concerns
about
it.
I
am
a
recovering
heroin
addict
myself.
U
U
Why
are
y'all
Cowtown
OSHA
quit
letting
them
pull
your
heart
strings
for
people
that
actually
lived
there
quit
voting
to
give
them
more
money
and
everything,
and
if
you
can
find
out
who
wrote
that
letter
tell
them?
Thank
you,
but
every
vote
that
comes
up
for
housing.
U
Several
people
on
the
Horseshoe
I
won't
name
names
vote
against
it,
but
it
seems,
like
everybody
here,
lets
the
housing
pull
on
their
heartstrings,
quit
doing
that,
because
they're
not
using
the
money
as
they
they're
supposed
to.
U
U
U
U
Been
I
come
every
meeting
or
I
try
to
come
every
meeting
to
fight
for
Ada,
not
just
for
me
30
seconds,
please
yes,
ma'am,
but
for
all
Ada
white
canes,
Walkers,
wheelchairs,
manual,
Wheelchairs
and
stuff,
like
that.
Q
Z
Z
Z
All
them
meetings
I
have
on
the
back
to
court.
I
gave
y'all
I'll
say
this:
is
your
training
tool
for
Miss
niece
relax?
Take
your
time.
We
got
the
North
Ward
seven
thirty
seconds,
President
Nixon
he
would
roll
over
in
his
grave.
If
he
knows
the
wall
on
drugs,
they'll
continue
after
the
government
they
start.
The
the
wall
on
drugs
went
on
still
going
on
marijuana.
Z
Z
AA
You
already
know
when
Michael
Washington
steps
up
to
the
mic,
I'm
told
ask
him
to
drop
the
mic
when
he
finished
speaking
because
I
know
I'm
effective.
Not
then
let
me
say
to
the
de
facto
board
of
the
Freedom
Center,
all
news,
but
relevant
news,
and
yet
good
news,
then
Michael
Washington,
all
of
you
to
know
about
I
am
the
one
who
had
the
Freedom
Center
removed
from
this
fictitious
mouthful
project.
You
wanna
know
why?
AA
Because
ain't,
no
dog
gone
away,
I'm
gonna
laugh
I'll
sit
here
to
say
we
are
responsible,
I'm
going
to
take
control
of
a
monument
that
the
late
great
educator,
Clara
Loop,
intended
to
remain
on
the
east
side
and
the
black
folks
watch.
It
now
continue
to
remain
in
control
of
you
want
to
know
why
Michael
Washington
see
gonna
handle
it.
Save
the
Freedom
Center,
because
I
knew
it
was
an
important,
significant
history
to
Oklahoma,
not
just
African-American
history,
but
the
history
abounding
all
over
the
world
watch
this
one.
AA
That
I
don't
hear
much
of
the
other
committee
talking
about
yeah.
They
talk
about
the
1958
Syrian
movement,
but
do
anybody
tell
you
like
only
Michael
would
tell
you
that
it
was
the
only
longest
sit-in
movement
throughout
the
United
States.
Why?
Because
Greenbrier
North,
Carolina
or
South
Carolina,
they
came
almost
two
years
later
afterwards
and
guess
what
maybe
a
year
but
the
Freedom
Center
movement,
City
movement
lasted
six
flat
years
from
1958
to
1964..
Think
about
it.
Now,
then
so
that
was
the
first
sit-in
movement.
AA
Why
is
this
history
hitting
because
of
billions
of
dollars
and
the
redirection
of
money
challenging
going
in
One
Direction?
Now
they
got
to
come
back
to
Oklahoma
because
of
Michael
Washington?
Isn't
that
something
we
got
a
new
tourist
attractions
Oklahoma
now?
Oh,
we
didn't
know
about
the
longest
city
move
beginning
in
Oklahoma
to
a
lady
has
been
arrested
numerous
times
the
community
to
be
counted
and
I
just
want
to
say
to
all
of
y'all.
H
AA
AA
Oh,
there
will
be
lawsuits
filed
against
this
so-called
de
facto
I'm,
not
gonna
name
any
name
because
I'm
halfway
giving
them
a
challenge
of
respecting
me,
but
should
that
fail
names
will
be
mentioned
again
see
how
from
The
Honorable
Michael
Washington
beat.
If
he's
given
a
chance
five
seconds,
I
stay
ready
to
keep
them
getting
ready
and
as
Arnold
Schwarzenegger
has
more
I'm.
One
of
my
beautiful
topics,
baby.
AB
Good
morning,
horseshoe
thank
you
for
letting
me
speak
in
front
of
you,
I'd
like
to
speak
concerning
what
James
you
said
earlier
about
15
minutes
ago
concerning
engagement
between
the
kids
and
stuff,
like
that.
But
I
would
like
to
also
talk
about
the
engagement
on
South
Side
Ward
6.
AB
I'd
like
to
see
more
education.
Everything
towards
our
people
that
are
kind
of
don't
know
how
to
speak
to
our
Council
and
everything
like
that.
So
that's
kind
of
important
and
I
kind
of
wanted
to
bring
that
up,
because
that
kind
of
sparked
some
interest
in
that
I
kind
of
feel
out
of
place.
AB
Talking
about
other
Awards
since
Ward
6
is
my
award
and
everything
but
I
kind
of
wanted
to
say
about
ward
two
about
the
about
bringing
up
a
kind
of
like
a
bond
proposal
concerning
a
bridge
that
would
connect
that
Sixth
Lane
that
you
were
talking
about
and
everything.
So
you
know
that's
something
that
we
could
talk
about
in
future.
Bond
proposals
and
everything
but
kind
of
slowing
down
traffic
on
on
a
street
that
wide
and
everything
kind
of
is
kind
of
kind
of
I.
AB
I
talk
to
people
in
Ward
7
concerning
Community,
Development
and
everything,
and
what
I
asked
myself
about
you
know
Kelly.
You
know
about
the
development
Kelly.
You
know
instead
of
North
East
23rd
and
Martin
Luther,
King
and
stuff
I
I
was
kind
of
wondering
and
asking
myself
about
that.
But
as
far
as
Ward
6
and
everything
councilwoman
Hammond,
we
have
done
some
great
things
concerning
the
safer
streets
around
Rockwood.
AB
That's
my
neighborhood
and
I
appreciate
you
and
I'm
filled
with
gratitude
about
the
work
that
you've
done
on
that
area
and
everything.
But
last
week
last
Council
you
talked
about
the
the
just
south
of
Dell
campus
and
everything
so
I'm
kind
of
thinking
about
that
area
right
there,
as
as
far
as
that
being
primed
for
development
and
I'm,
not
saying
a
lot
of
development
or
something
like
that.
You
know,
but
you
know
there's
a
lot
of
a
lot
of
industrial
around
there
and
everything.
H
AB
AB
Also
community
relations
between
Oklahoma
City
Police
Department
are
elected
officials
in
Word.
Six,
that's
very
important
to
me.
So
South
Side,
Ward
6,
is
something
that
I
would
like
to
grow
and
better
between
our
people
that
live
there,
especially
in
the
Rockwood
neighborhood.
