B

Well
good
morning
and
welcome
to
city
hall,
we're
going
to
get
started
with
the
invocation
and
the
pledge
of
allegiance.
Dr
randy
faulkner
is
the
pastor
at
metropolitan
baptist
church
here
in
oklahoma
city
and
he's
going
to
lead
us
in
the
invocation
afterwards
I'll
ask
councilman
griner
if
he'll
lead
us
in
the
pledge
of
allegiance,
but
would
everyone
please
stand.
D
D
D
D

We
pray
for
your
blessings
on
this
meeting
bless
our
mayor,
our
city
council,
our
staff,
as
your
word
guides
us
lord.
We
pray
that
you
will
help
us
to
trust
in
you
with
all
our
hearts
and
not
lean
on
our
own
understanding,
but
to
acknowledge
you
in
all
our
ways,
and
we
thank
you
for
the
promise
that
you
will
make
our
paths
straight
in
your
holy
name,
amen,
amen,.

F
Oklahoma
city
has
the
obligation
and
privilege
to
play
an
important
role
in
the
observance
of
this
great
week.
Now,
therefore,
mick
cornett,
the
mayor
of
the
city
of
oklahoma
city,
does
hereby
declare
the
week
of
november
16
through
22nd
2014
as
oklahoma
heritage
week
in
oklahoma
city,
and
he
encourages
all
citizens,
families,
clubs,
churches,
businesses,
organizations
and
schools
in
oklahoma
city
to
give
personal
attention
to
all
special
statehood
day,
observances
to
fly
the
oklahoma
state
flag
and
the
national
colors
and
to
participate
in
and
sponsor
programs
projects
and
activities.
B
Let's
show
our
appreciation
to
the
state
of
oklahoma
and
to
heritage
week
and
to
louise-
and
you
know
it
might
just
be
a
good
time
if
you
have
children
in
the
home
just
to
talk
to
them
about
oklahoma's
history
and
the
fact
that
we're
a
fairly
new
state
and
but
we
celebrate
november
16th,
which
was
two
days
ago
as
as
heritage
week.
Because
that's
when
the
proclamation
that's
when
we
officially
became
a
state.
When
president
roosevelt
signed
the
papers
anything
else,
we
can
do.
G
B
B
F
Whereas
betty
schidon
conducts
herself
as
a
consummate
professional
and
dedicates
herself
to
the
service
of
her
students.
Now,
therefore
be
resolved
by
the
mayor
and
council
of
the
city
of
oklahoma
city
that
they
do
hereby
recognize
and
commend
betty
chadon
on
her
selection.
As
november
2014
teacher
of
the
month
by
the
foundation
for
oklahoma
city,
public
schools
and
the
rotary
club
of
oklahoma
city.
B
Technically,
we
have
to
vote
on
this
I'll,
look
for
a
motion
and
a
second
cast,
your
votes,
betty
they're,
all
green,
all
green
lights.
Thank
you.
So
much
and
and
I
got
to
speak
with
betty
for
a
few
minutes
today
and
she
really
has
a
calling-
she
teaches
pre-k
kids
with
special
needs,
and
I
can't
imagine
that
the
challenges
that
might
exert
themselves.
A
I'm
really
honored
to
be
here:
oklahoma
city
schools
have
really
terrific
teachers.
My
three
kids
went
through
the
public
school
system
and
they're
all
have
advanced
degrees.
My
son
is
going
to
be
celebrating
his
graduation
with
his
doctorate
in
december
from
university
of
tulsa.
They
all
had
great
oklahoma
city
teachers
this
week.
My
class
is
learning
about
the
letter.
O
and
oklahoma
is
definitely
one
of
our
words.
We're
going
to
be
going
over.
My
kids
will
learn
that
they
live
in
oklahoma.
B
And
on
a
somewhat
somber
note,
we
are
losing
one
of
our
longest
friends
down
at
city
hall.
Donna
morris
has
been
working
with
the
library
system
and
running
the
library
system
for
a
long
long
time,
donna
won't
you
come
up
and
I
think
we
have
several
members
from
your
board.
If
you
all
would
come
up
and
and
surround
her
here.
B
We'll
have
the
resolution-
and
I
know,
there's
some
library
employees
here
too
so
come
on
up
and
let's
honor
donna
morris
who
was
winding
up
45
years,
45
years
with
the
oklahoma
city,
metropolitan
library
system
and
the
13
years
as
executive
director.
We
have
a
resolution
I'll
ask
the
clerk
to
read
it,
whereas.
F
F
Whereas
mrs
morris,
a
visionary
and
respected
leader
in
the
community,
has
been
a
member
of
the
downtown
rotary
club
leadership,
okc,
the
greater
oklahoma
city,
chamber
of
commerce
and
the
oklahoma
state
chamber.
Whereas
mrs
morris
has
been
the
leading
force
in
the
development
of
two
new
libraries
in
oklahoma
city.
The
patient
says
ladding
northwest
library
at
5600,
northwest
122nd
street,
which
is
the
first
eed
certified
public
library
built
in
oklahoma
and
the
almonte
library
at
2914
southwest
59th
street,
as
well
as
playing
a
pivotal
role
in
the
construction
and
grand
opening
of
the
ronald
j.
B
Let's
show
our
appreciation
to
donna.
This
is
for
you
and
my
goodness,
I'm
going
to
hand
you
the
microphone
just
because
I
want
to
hear
thoughts
of
a
45-year
career
in
our
library
system.
But
you
know
you
don't
have
to
look
very
far
to
see
the
to
the
results
of
your
work.
We
have
so
many
challenging
challenges
out
there
and
promising
young
people
and,
of
course,
beautiful
building
right
across
the
street.
H
Thank
you
mayor
and
thanks
to
the
city
council
for
this
honor,
I
wanted
to
build
on
what
you
said
about
schools.
I
went
to
arthur
elementary
roosevelt
junior
high
and
graduated
from
u.s
grant
so
oklahoma
city
public
schools,
kind
of
helped
me
on
the
path.
I
really
want
to
commend
the
city
for
the
partnership
that
we've
had
with
the
library
system
over
the
the
time
that
I've
been
director.
Many
of
the
city
council.
People
in
the
mayor
have
really
been
helpful.
H
Jim
couch,
I'm
sure,
he's
probably
glad
I'm
gone
because
I've
bugged
him
quite
a
bit
to
get
some
things
done,
but
it's
been
a
great
partnership.
We've
we've
the
library's
mentioned
in
here,
as
well
as
renovating
two
of
our
libraries,
southern
oaks
and
ralph
ellison.
We
have
two
more
projects
in
the
works
to
renovate
belle,
isle
and
capitol
hill,
and
so
we're
excited
about
that.
H
B
Do
have
a
great
library
system,
and-
and
I
want
to
this
this
this
this
support
group
here-
you
know
all
got
up
when
when
we
said
we
want
to
do
something
for
donna,
they
were
here
so
don.
I
hope
you
feel
the
love
in
the
room
and
we
really
appreciate
and
have
valued
your
service,
and
we
hope
you
won't
be
too
much
of
a
stranger
down
here
at
city
hall
and
in
the
libraries.
I
I
But
all
of
those
libraries
really
do
have
a
tremendous
impact
on
so
many
people's
lives.
They
really
change
the
courses
of
many
people's
lives
to
be
able
to
have
access
to
the
books
and
other
learning
materials
is
so
important
and
with
the
almonte
library,
for
example,
just
opening
that
up
brought
in
hundreds
of
new
members
to
the
library
system,
and
especially
the
children,
and
especially
those
who
may
not
be
as
well
acquainted
with
our
language
here,
to
be
able
to
gain
additional
understanding
through
the
library
is
so
important.
It
helps
them.
I
J
Mayor,
if
I
could
just
add
my
congratulations,
donna,
thank
you
so
much
for
your
service.
I
so
appreciate
it.
We
had
the
privilege
of
working
closely
together
on
a
couple
of
the
projects
downtown,
particularly
the
rotary
leaping
waters,
fountain
that
I
to
this
day,
see
children
playing
in
that
fountain.
It's
been
a
real
gift
to
downtown
oklahoma
city
and
then
the
placement
of
our
rotary
buffalo
harris
right
outside
the
library
and
it's
also
been
a
joy,
but
I
hope
you
enjoy
these
next
years.
We've
just
appreciated
working
with
you,
so
very
much.

B
L
L
Once
we
hit
the
million
dollar
mark,
I
was
hoping
we'd
reach
it
by
now,
because
I
told
newark
I
do
10
years,
and
so
anyway,
I
I
was
hoping
we'd
reach
the
billion
mark.
By
now,
but
once
that
does
reach
a
million
dollars,
the
interest
from
those
funds
will
go
to
help
support
other
projects,
matching
funds,
improvements
on
the
river
and
the
trails.
Also,
so
we're
excited
about
what
we've
accomplished
about
putting
on
a
free
family
holiday
event.
L
I
do
mayor
I'd
like
to
mention
the
sponsors
that
have
been
with
us
for
the
major
sponsors
since
we
started
it
and
to
recognize
them:
bank.
First,
the
chickasaw
nation,
the
city
of
oklahoma
city,
the
oklahoma
city,
riverfront
redevelopment
authority
and
the
e.l
and
thelma
gaylord
foundation,
in
addition
this
year
we're
adding
air
comfort
solution
as
our
title
sponsor.
So
we
appreciate
air
comfort
solutions
coming
on
board
to
help
us
with
this
again
a
great
free
family
event.
L
Finally,
I'll
close
by
saying
we're
honored
to
have
our
former
mayor
andy
coats
as
our
grand
marshal
this
year
and
and
he
had
a
tough
four
years
as
mayor
mayor
cornett,
as
you
know,
during
those
times,
but
the
one
thing
that
andy
coats
did
do
was
he
started
the
riverfront
authority
pete
as
as
you'll
recall,
which
is
now
the
oklahoma
city
riverfront
redevelopment
authority.
So
we're
excited
to
have
former
mayor
coats
and
his
family
join
us
friday,
december
december
november,
28th
on
the
oklahoma
river.
L
B
M
N
N
O
N
N
J
B
P
Yes,
we've
held
it
for
at
least
over
50
years.
No
one
really
knows
quite
when
it
started,
but
it's
been
a
long
time.
So
we
hope
to
do
that
again.
This
year,
it'll
be
the
same
thing.
We
start
off
with
our
longhorns
that
everyone
loves.
That's
our
signature
thing
with
the
parade
and
afterwards
we'll
have
a
pictures
and
presents
with
santa
in
the
rodeo
opry
for
the
children.
It's
completely
free,
everything's
free
unless
they
want
to
buy
hot
chocolate,
and
it's
a
fun
thing
that
we
moved
up
to
november
29th.

It

the

the
oklahoma

Just
the
claims
and
payroll
today
cast
your
votes.
It
passed
unanimously
adjourned.
The
ocpa
convene
is
the
oklahoma
city,
environmental
assistance,
trust
where
we
have
three
items.
B
E
R
R
R
R
The
the
concern
is
really,
I
think,
on
both
ends
of
that
line,
and
that
is
that
we
finally
get
we
get
to
bring
the
it
into
oklahoma
city
and
they
get
and,
at
the
other
end
to
bring
it
into
tulsa,
so
that
it
can
be
a
much
more
convenient
operation
rather
than
having
a
bus.
They
have
to
bust
from
sao
paulo
on
the
north
end
and
we
from
the
or
on
the
east
end,
and
we
have
to
bust
from
10th
and
sooner
to
get
people
into
oklahoma
city.
R
Solution-
and
there
are
solutions
out
on
on
this
end-
that
could
bring
the
the
train
on
into
at
least
to
bricktown,
so
it
would-
and
I
think
we
ought
to
be
thinking
about
that
and
working
on
it.
I
think
that's
going
on
in
tulsa
and
I'd
just
like
to
encourage
the
company,
that's
bringing
it
in
and
and
and
continue
to
encourage
us
to
do
something
to
try
to
make
that
a
much
more
convenient
operation.
R
B
Gonna
be
two
from
february,
through
the
end
of
next
year,
two
trains
a
day.
Moving
on
that
line,
as
you
say,
it
doesn't
quite
get
to
downtown
oklahoma
city,
doesn't
quite
get
to
downtown
tulsa.
So
we
have
some
work
to
do
like
yeah.
If
there
is
a
way
we
can,
you
know,
work
with
the
railroad
and
get
involved
and
and
figure
out
a
way
to
get
that
closer
into
the
to
the
santa
fe
hub.
R
Yeah
they'll
be
on
both
engines,
people
be
transported
by
bus
to
a
more
central
location
in
tulsa
and
in
in
downtown
oklahoma
city.
I
don't
want
to
say
I
don't
want
to
sound
like
I'm
being
disparaging
of
the
effort,
because
it's
a
good
idea.
It's
really
a
great
idea,
but
it
just
could
be
much
better
if
we
could
get
those
two
end
pieces
working.
So
that's
just
I.
I
just
wanted
to
comment
on
it.
R
This
is
a
resolution
approving
an
amended
budgetary
allocation
to
the
completion
of
the
oklahoma
city
community
college
capitol
hill
project.
This
this
is
going
to
be
a
significant
opportunity
for
both
capitol
hill
and
for
the
college
of
the
it's
I
thought
about
this
morning.
I
was
watching
the
news
this
morning
and
langston's
had
a
commercial
and
they
have
a
what
they
run.
K
K
B
I
But,
more
importantly-
and
I
know
any
one
of
the
gentlemen
out-
there
could
speak
better
on
this-
this
is
going
to
help
facilitate
the
reach
of
oklahoma
city
community
college
well
into
the
community,
and
just
like
the
library
system,
oklahoma
city,
community
college
really
does
change
people's
lives.
It
in
this
instance
it'll
help
with
people
needing
some
greater
assistance
on
just
some
basic
education
issues,
as
well
as,
hopefully
being
the
doorway
into
higher
education.
E
J
If
I
could,
I
was
just
going
to
take
a
minute
to
recognize
dr
paul
seacrest
paul
has
announced
his
retirement
in
july
of
15
after
an
illustrious
career
at
oklahoma
city
community
college,
and
we
appreciate
everything
you've
done.
I
think
this
campus
on
25th
street
will
provide
a
tremendous
legacy
along
with
that
beautiful
performing
arts
theater
that's
activated
almost
every
day,
I
think
paul
and
the
campus
has
really
grown
under
your
stewardship,
and
we
very
much
appreciate
everything
you've
done.
J
B
S
You
take,
for
example,
what
they
do
with
oklahoma
city,
public
schools
that
any
graduating
senior
who
wishes
to
attend
their
college.
They
can
attend
free,
which
I
do
believe
that's
outstanding.
I
think
the
opportunities
that
it
will
present
for
the
capital
hill
area
and
the
hispanic
community
on
the
south
side,
I
think,
will
be
outstanding
so
again.
Thank
you.
Okay,
triple
c.
R
R
I
have
a
meeting
this
afternoon
with
with
the
library
folks
and
the
school
people
from
capitol
hill
elementary
school,
which
has
become
an
interesting
relationship,
because
you
can
go
to
capitol
library
about
two
o'clock
in
the
afternoon
and
it's
just
a
regular
library,
not
very
many
people
there
and
then
about
2
30.
When
the
kids
get
out
of
school.
At
lee
I
mean
at
kept
hill
elementary,
you
can't
find
a
seat,
and
so
that's
that's
really
going
to
work
out.
Both
of
those
projects
together
are
really
going
to
make
a
difference
on
25th
street.
K
Mayor,
I
think
it's
important
to
point
out
on
tiff2
and
and
tif
8
and
and
some
of
the
others
we've
set
aside
monies
for
the
taxing
agencies.
If
you
go
back
to
the
concept
of
tiff
projects,
these
developments
would
not
have
happened
without
the
tif
being
in
place,
but
for
that
tif
to
be
in
place,
the
taxing
agencies,
the
school
district,
the
county,
the
city,
county
health
library
system
and
others
had
to
give
up
part
of
their
mill
levy
for
a
period
of
time.
K
To
make
that
happen,
and
so
some
of
that
money
is
set
aside
for
specific,
develop
consent,
specific
development,
but
other
of
that
money
is
put
in
in
specific
funds
to
help
those
taxing
agencies
on
some
specific
projects
within
those
areas.
So
it's
really
kind
of
a
win-win.
As
we
go
forward
good
reminder.
J
K
We're
happy
to
do
that.
We
talked
about
that
last
week
and
again
we
will
be
doing
that.
What
the
councilwoman
is
asking
for
is
meeting
with
the
the
people
with
iowa
pacific
who
will
be
running
this
and
to
talk
about
what
we
can
do
to
help
and
what
their,
what
their
intentions
are
to
better
understand
the
service.
B
B
T
Yes,
has
anybody
signed
up
on
this?
This
is
going
back
to
the
original
zoning
on
this
particular
piece
of
property.
It
was
done
into
a
spud
about
a
year
or
so
ago
that
deal
fell
through
and
the
owner
has
asked
us
to
go
back
to
I-3
zoning
with
no
objection
and
the
planning
commission
approved
it
unanimously.
I
move
for
approval.
B
I
U
U
The
one
that
our
house
is
on
is
still
o2
and
the
other
two
lots
are
o2
and
we
want
all
three
of
those
lots
to
be
zoned
r1.
We
do
have
a
buyer
for
the
two
lots
to
the
west
and
they're
going
to
build
a
nice
new
home,
and
so
we
were
supposed
to
close
this
week.
So
we
would
hope
that
you
would
give
us
an
emergency
on
that.
B
I
B
B
T
B
S
B
All
right
we're
voting
on
item
9a
5.
cast
your
votes.
It
passed
unanimously
item
9a6
is
a
zoning
case.
Oh
you're
right
that
was
item
9a4
now
to
9a5,
which
is
also
a
zoning
case
in
ward
7
at
1400
east
memorial
road.
It's
currently
our
one
single
family
residential
and
it
would
become
a
new
plan
unit
development,
john
we're
back
in
ward
7..
All.
S
V
Good
morning,
mr
mayor
council,
chris
anderson
with
smc
consulting
engineers
representing
developer,
also
have
mr
dirk
o'hare
and
mr
kit
wakeley
with
the
development
company
that's
doing
this
project.
This
is
a
pud
project
on
east
memorial,
roads,
approximately
eight
acres
since
a
little
east
of
broadway
extension.
It
is
for
a
post
recovery
care
project
with
a
rehabilitation
building
and
also
related
off
medical
office
buildings.
It
was
approved
on
september
25th
unanimously
by
the
planning
commission,
and
with
that
we'll
be
happy
to
entertain
any
questions.
S
V
Yes,
at
the
initial
planning
commission
meeting,
there
were
protesters
that
showed
up
and
we
continued
that
meeting
meeting.
I
had
a
neighborhood
meeting
at
the
neighborhood
with
the
residents
there
worked
out
some
issues.
The
main
concern
was
a
wall
that
separated
the
residential
project.
From
from
our
project,
we
agreed
to
an
eight-foot
masonry
wall
and
also
a
15-foot
landscape
buffer
along
that
area,
and
that
made
the
residents
happy
work
things
out.
So.

T
B
B
K
X
Good
morning,
my
name
is
david
adencock
we're
here
this
morning
to
introduce
three
construction
codes.
In
particular,
two
in
relating
to
commercial
buildings.
Model
codes
are
published
by
the
international
code
council
they're
in
a
they're
published
in
a
three-year
cycle
and
they're
the
basis
for
the
minimum
construction
standards
of
the
state
of
oklahoma.
X
Many
of
the
proposed
changes
that
that
we
have
were
made
for
the
purpose
of
reorganization
or
reorganizing
our
city
ordinances,
so
that
all
the
building
related
ordinance
that
the
titles
and
numbering
will
parallel
each
other,
the
oklahoma
city.
One
of
the
changes
here
is
the
oklahoma
city
boiler.
Licensing
requirements
have
been
modified
to
accept
the
oklahoma
state
boiler,
licensing,
eliminating
the
need
to
provide
boiler
operator
and
contractor
examinations
that
we
do
now
also
there's
new
code
language
that
requires
locking
type
tamper,
resistant
caps
on
refrigerant
access
ports.
Y
X
I
can't
answer
to
to
a
certain
distance
back,
but
more
recently,
we've
been
working
on
these
for
probably
the
last
two
years
and
we've
been
meeting
one
of
the
things
that
we've
started
in
the
development
center
is
meeting
with
our
contractors
organizations.
Now
we
have
two
meetings
a
year
that
are
scheduled
with
each
one
of
those
organizations.
X
We
started
this
in
september
2013.
Let
them
know
what
is
coming
in
these
coded
options
makes
it
easier
for
them
and
for
us
to
to
regulate
those
codes.
But
then
we
have
code
commissions
that
actually
review
those
codes,
and
the
state
actually
was
that
I
think
2011
started
the
uniform
oklahoma,
uniform
building
code
commission
and
now
now
they
are
reviewing
the
codes
at
the
state
level
so
and
they
have
become
since
then
they
have
become
the
minimum
building
standards
for
the
state.
X
So
we
have
to
kind
of
see
what
the
state's
doing
for
those
minimum
standards
for
our
code
commissions
and
to
review
them.
Now
you
know
that's,
that's
speaking
to
most
recently
further
back.
I
can't
answer
that,
but
I
will
say
that
that
our
plan
is
to
have
our
code
commissions
up
with
the
the
review
of
the
new
codes
more
in
line
with
the
state
that
we'll
be
adopting
them
as
they
come
out.
J
X
X
Yes,
we
do.
We
have
open
meetings
with
our
contractors.
Like
I
said
we
started
this
in
september
2013.
We
have
three
a
month
in
september
and
three
a
month
in
march,
and
we
meet
with
those
separate
contracting
organizations
depending
on
what
trade
it
is,
so
we
have
a
night
designated
for
each
trade.
Great.
Thank
you
very
much.
E
X
O
B
B
B
B
B
Item
9j
is
a
public
hearing
regarding
unsecured
structures.
Is
there
anyone
here,
hoping
to
speak
or
any
item
listed
under
9j
all
right?
How
about
a
motion
cast
your
votes?
It
passed
unanimously
item
9k
is
a
resolution
that
would
rename
ross
park
into
belle
isle
park,
and
this
is
in
ward
2..
Ed
did
you
want
to
say
doug
cupper
is
here
yeah.
Z
Z
Z
B
B
9L
is
also
a
resolution
to
name
a
new
sports
complex
that
people
have
no
doubt
seen
under
construction
over
at
woodson
park
for
quite
some
time,
and
the
new
name
would
be
the
wendell
wizzenhunt
sports
complex
in
honor
of
former
oklahoma
city
parks
and
recreation
director
wendell
wisenheim.
I
noticed
wendell's
in
the
room,
probably
with
mixed
emotions
about
this.
This
vote.
That's
coming
up
here
any
comments
from
council
before
we
vote.
B
I
I
will
just
say
that
you
know
the
city
has
a
you
know:
significant
history
about
honoring
our
former
parks
commissioners,
with
some
sort
of
presence
in
the
city.
You
have
to
go
to
pat
murphy,
alvin
egling
and
I'm
probably
missing
a
handful
more,
but
I
think
you
know
those
of
us
on
the
horseshoe
know
how
important
wendell's
input
has
been
here
through
good
times
and
bad
times,
and
through
good
budget
years
and
bad
budget
years.
B
I
thought
wendell
did
an
incredible
job
of
keeping
us
afloat
in
bad
times
and
then
really
investing
wisely
when
the
proceeds
were
there
and
the
city
is
going
to
be
better
off
from
here
on
because
of
wendell's
work,
and
I
think
it's
very
appropriate.
I
would
urge
the
council
to
vote
for
it
all
right.
We're
voting
on
item
9,
l
cash,
your
votes,
it
passes
unanimously.
AA
I
just
I
just
want
to
say
that
it
was
my
greatest
pleasure
to
be
a
part
of
of
growing
the
park
system
in
oklahoma
city.
It's.
It
was
an
opportunity
that
that
I
relished,
I
really
did
council
people
really
relish
that
opportunity,
and
I
also
want
to
let
you
know
there
was
a
great
thing
working
with
the
city
staff,
with
the
parks
and
recreation
staff,
but
with
the
staff
of
the
entire
city
to
make
these
things
happen.
AA
I
never
got
any
anything
but
cooperation
from
the
entire
staff,
and
that
was
a
great
thing
to
remember:
there's
really
no
higher
honor,
no
greater
honor
for
a
parks
and
recreation
director
than
to
have
a
facility
that
he
or
she
had
an
impact
on
building.
So
I
I
very
much
do
appreciate
the
the
board
of
park,
commissioners
recommendation
and,
in
the
council's
vote
very
much
very
much.
Thank
you.
AA
B
B
All
right
item
9m:
I
understand
we
do
not
need
executive
sessions,
so
just
look
for
a
resolution
to
pass
it
cast
your
votes.
It
passed
unanimously.
Likewise,
on
item
9n,
I
understand
we
do
not
need
executive
session
and
just
look
for
a
resolution.
A
motion
to
pass
a
resolution
cast
your
votes.
It
passed
unanimously
and
once
again
item
9-0.
I
understand
we
do
not
need
executive
session.
We
just
look
for
a
motion
to
pass
the
resolution.
B
Cast
your
votes.
It
passed
unanimously
item
9-p.
I
understand
we
do
need
executive
sessions,
so
why
don't?
We
have
a
motion
to
move
item
9-p
into
executive
session
when
appropriate,
cast
your
votes
and
that
item
moves
to
executive
session
and
then
item
9q.
I
understand
we
do
not
need
executive
session
so
how
about
a
motion
to
strike?
B
Yes,
okay,
move
to
strike,
then
on
item
9q
cast
your
vote.
That
item
is
struck
from
the
agenda
and
same
with
r.
A
motion
to
strike
would
be
appropriate.
Cast
your
votes.
It
passed
unanimously
item
9s
is
claims
recommended
for
denial.
Is
there
anyone
here,
hoping
to
speak
under
any
item
listed
under
9s
all
right?
How
about
a
motion.
B
B
Then
item
11
is
items
from
council
and
we'll
start
with
the
councilman
schweitz
request
on
behalf
of
several
other
council
people
and
myself
to
move
to
the
same
schedule
next
year
that
we've
had
this
year
about
scheduling,
council
meetings.
Pete
anything
you
want
to
say
about
this.
We
vote
this
time
it
it
moves
into
the
books.
Last
time
we
just
introduced
it.
R
R
T
I'd
just
like
to
thank
the
your
residents
of
fond
valley,
which
is
a
neighborhood
south
of
mustang
and
west
of
mustang
road
for
their
neighborhood
meeting
last
night,
and
it
was
very
gratifying.
The
enthusiasm
that
these
folks
had
in
far
southwestern
oklahoma
city
for
the
maps
projects
and
the
progress
that
had
been
made
there.
So
what.
O
Quick
request
city
manager
remind
people
once
again,
they're
driving
the
vehicle
that
buy
it
as
any
oklahoma's
vehicle,
regardless
of
what
kind
it
is
the
traffic
religiously
adhered
to.
Traffic
warning
sign
construction
because
to
a
lot
of
people,
that's
the
only
impression
half
of
them.
They
see
our
people
violating
the
ball
and
started
raising
him
as
respect
okay,.
B
K
That
so
the
road
has
to
be
closed
for
a
period
of
time,
for
utility
relocations
and
for
the
construction
of
the
bridge.
It
was
closed
monday
and
it
will
be
closed
toward
to
the
end
of
15.
So
it's
going
to
be
closed
for
quite
a
while,
and
so
what
we're
doing
is
actually
it's.
It's
a
major
construction
project.
There's
got
to
be
a
shoe
fly
around
and
and
actually
have
the
construction
of
the
of
that
bridge
to
accommodate
to
accommodate
the
roadway
through
there
and
we'll
be
going.
B
AB
Downtown
in
december,
as
you
know,
is
a
collection
of
events
and
attractions
that
runs
basically
through
november
from
november
14th
to
january
the
4th
and
we
market
it
under
the
umbrella
of
downtown
in
december,
about
three
years
ago,
devon
came
in
as
a
presenting
sponsor
and
we
were
really
able
with
with
that
help
to
do
a
lot
more.
The
first
thing,
of
course,
is
the
devon
ice
rink.
Now
in
a
permanent
location
in
the
myriad
gardens.
It's
it's
fourth
season
there,
it's
open
seven
days
a
week.
AB
AB
AB
The
bugs
out
is
that
you
can
register
when
you
arrive
at
downtown
in
december
at
saturdays
with
santa
and
then
you
can
enjoy
all
of
the
activities
and
they
will
text
you
when
it's
time
for
you
to
come
up
and
meet
santa,
because
we
were
having
such
long
lines
for
people
to
standing
in
line
to
meet
santa.
So
this
way
everyone
can
enjoy
everything.
AB
This
event
has
gotten
so
large
that
we
are
actually
closing
sheridan
the
saturdays
during
saturdays
with
santa,
and
there
will
be
a
little
train
that
will
be
taking
you
between
devon
and
the
myriad
gardens
and
just
another
added
attraction.
So
it
won't
seem
like
you
have
to
wait
so
long
to
visit
with
santa
claus.
So
it's
going
to
be
really
great
this
year.
AB
Another
big
event
is
the
chesapeake
snow
tubing.
Once
again,
at
the
chickasaw
bricktown
ballpark
this
year,
we're
doing
things
a
little
bit
differently.
It
will
actually
open
to
the
public
december
13th
after
kids
are
out
of
school.
We'll
all
will
be
when
all
of
our
public
sessions
are
and
again
12
will
get
you
an
hour
and
a
half
of
snow
tubing.
Just
like
it's
been
in
the
past,
you
can
purchase
tickets
at
the
ballpark
ticket
office
or
again
at
downtown
of
december.com,
which
is
where
we
have
all
our
information
about
downtown
in
december.
AB
AB
We
will
have
cookies
from
nona's
popcorn
from
harkins
and
katie
bugs
hot
cocoa
food
truck
will
be
there.
Santa
will
be
at
the
festivities
to
greet
everyone,
and
it's
just
really
become
a
fun
event.
We've
moved
the
tree
over
to
the
plaza
on
the
ballpark
side
of
mickey
mantle,
which
gives
everybody
an
opportunity
to
gather
around
the
tree,
and
it
just
feels
really
really
close.
AB
AB
There's
lots
of
indoor
activities
for
children,
spaghetti
eddie,
coloring
station
again,
you
can
register
it
downtown
at
december.com,
and
the
thing
that's
really
fun
about
this
run.
Is
that
there's
a
costume
contest
with
cash
prizes
for
the
registered
5k
runners.
So
it's
always
fun
to
see
what
creative
costumes
will
show
up
at
leadership
square.
Even
if
you're
not
running
it's
a
fun
morning
to
be
downtown
at
nine
o'clock
and
have
coffee
and
watch
all
the
costumes
again
we're
doing
free
holiday
boat
rides
at
the
water
taxi.
AB
One
main
financial
once
again
sponsored
the
lights
on
the
bricktown
canal,
and
they
did
some
extra
stuff
this
year
and
it
looks
so
beautiful
and
the
free
boat
rides
will
be
thursday
through
sunday
evenings
november,
28th
through
december
28th,
from
6
until
9
30
p.m.
We
will
be
closed
thanksgiving
day
and
christmas
day,
and
this
year
we're
going
to
load
the
boats
just
west
of
oklahoma
avenue
beneath
kind
of
under
zeos
is
where
the
loading
will
be
for
the
free.
The
free
water
taxi
rides,
but
this
is
always
a
very
popular
event.
AB
They
fill
the
boats
up
on
almost
every
single,
every
single
trip
and
it
seems
to
do
well,
regardless
of
weather.
Even
if
it's
cold
people
seem
to
like
riding
the
canal
boats
and
seeing
the
lights
and
speaking
of
lights,
another
holiday
favorite
is
the
automobile
alley
lights
on
broadway.
This
is
where
we
put
lights
and
curtains
curtain
type
lights
on
the
buildings
on
broadway
and
really
with
the
neon
signs
that
are
there.
It
creates
a
really
magical
effect
and,
and
again
people
would
really
like
to
to
to
see
this
this
year.
AB
In
fact,
it's
this
week
we
have
shophop,
which
will
be
our
kind
of
kickoff
to
shopping
on
automobile
alley.
We've
really
increased
the
retail
on
broadway
in
the
past
year
and
so
we're
trying
to
encourage
people
to
do
more
shopping
and
the
lights
will
help
that
deluxe
winter
market,
which
went
under
the
downtown
and
december
umbrella
last
year,
was
at
the
chevy
chevy
event
center
in
bricktown
last
year.
But
this
year
it's
moving
to
leadership
square,
and
I
think
this
is
so
exciting.
AB
AB
You
have
to
register
online
at
downtown
december.com
starting
december
25th
for
that
movie
and
then
every
week
it's
a
week
out
and
we
sell
out
of
these
free
tickets
every
single
time,
so
continental
is
happy.
Harkins
is
happy
and
again
it's
a
great
family
way
to
see
some
christmas
movies.
Some
of
your
favorite
christmas
movies,
on
the
big
screen
in
bricktown,
an
event
that
we
added
last
year
is
little
willy's
triple
dog.
Dare
it's
a
stair
climbing
event
I'll
challenge?
Anyone
to!
AB
I
will
really
respect
you.
If
you
do
this,
you
climb
flights
of
stairs
at
leadership
square,
which
is
22
floors,
oklahoma
tower,
which
is
31
floors,
and
then
the
leadership
square
south
tower
is
16
floors.
Thus
the
triple
dog,
dare
you
can
do
one
two
or
all
three
of
those
stair
climbing
events,
and
this
will
be
saturday
december
6th
and
again.
AB
This
is
a
great
thing
to
see
downtown
to
watch
these
athletes
doing
this
stair
climbing
down
downtown
something
that
was
brought
to
us
by
our
friend
mark
before
so
we
we
really
have
enjoyed
that
one
santa's
adventures
on
the
oklahoma
river.
Of
course
the
we've
talked
a
lot
about
the
river
today
at
this
council
meeting,
but
the
holidays
at
the
boathouse
district
will
begin
november,
28th
through
january
4th.
There's
the
north
pole
climb
the
sandridge,
santa
zip,
rumble,
drop
snow,
bounce,
candy
cane
rock
wall,
rudolph's
launch
and
more
and
again
it
can
be.
AB
It
was
with
a
rip
pass
to
the
to
the
river,
the
river
district,
a
35
all-day,
pass
for
all
ages
to
experience
the
fun
on
on
the
river
during
the
holidays
and
another
shopping
event,
because
shopping
is
so
important
to
our
city.
During
this
time
of
year
are
the
holiday
pop-up
shops.
They
will
begin
thursday
november
28
through
the
december
21st
this
year,
they're
located
in
midtown
at
10th
and
hudson
next
to
the
blue
garden
food
truck
park.
There
will
be
38
rotating
shops
plus
an
urban
christmas
tree
lot.
AB
What
I
really
love
about
this
event
is
every
weekend
the
vendors
change.
So
you
need
to
go
to
this
event
every
weekend.
If
you
want
to
catch
all
of
the
opportunities
they're,
all
local
businesses,
some
of
them
have
bricks
and
mortar
stores
in
oklahoma
city.
Some
of
them
are
only
pop-ups,
but
it's
a
great
way
to
do
some
christmas
shopping
by
your
christmas
tree
and
the
igloos
really
do
really
do
give
the
impact
of
the
of
the
holiday
season
and
it'll
be
very
visible.
AB
This
year
I
think
at
10th
and
10th
and
hudson
their
other
downtown
and
december
events.
First
of
all,
the
winter
shops
will
also
be
back
at
the
myriad
gardens
this
year.
Those
are
the
little
chalets
similar
to
what
you
might
see
in
bryant
park
in
new
york
that
are
managed
by
prodigal
and
along
with
that
prodigal
has
added
a
carousel,
so
you
can
ride
the
carousel
for
a
dollar
and
shop
at
these
shops.
AB
Of
course
the
nutcracker
is
a
christmas
tradition
for
many
oklahoma
city
families.
The
christmas
show
with
the
philharmonic
is
also
a
christmas
tradition.
Lyric
has
a
christmas
carol,
opening
night
will
be
december
31st
and
then
the
there's
hockey
games
and
the
skirvin
is
also
hosting
some
holiday
events
this
year.
So
you
can
get
all
the
information
that
you
ever
wanted
to
get
at
our
website
at
downtown
in
december.com.
AB
Of
course,
I'm
always
available.
If
you
want
to
email
me,
if
you
have
any
specific
questions
or
if
there's
anything
that
I
can
help
to
make
your
holiday
experience
in
downtown
oklahoma
city
better,
we
really
appreciate
all
your
support.
This
is
the
biggest
thing
that
we
do
all
year
and
it's
always
a
lot
of
fun.
So
thank
you.

The
oklahoma
lethality
assessment
protocol
basically
consists
of
when
an
officer
responds
to
an
intimate
partner,
relation
domestic
call.
He
will
offer
the
lethality
assessment
to
the
victim
if
she
requests
if
she
will
participate
in
the
study
if
she's
willing
to
participate
in
the
study.
The
officer
will
then
complete
the
screening
and
if
she
would
like
to
talk
to
the
y
after
it's
over,
she
can
do
so
a
lot
of
times
on
the
assessment.
It
scores
their
level
of
threat
from
high
to
medium
to
low
and
normally,
I
believe,
on
every
assessment
in
the
study.
AD
AD
If
she
does,
the
officer
will
then
make
the
telephone
call
and
advise
the
advocate
how
the
victim
scored
and
what
her
score
was
and
some
of
the
responses
she
might
have
made
of
would
made
when
when
he
asked
the
questions
and
then
the
victim
would
get
on
the
phone
and
do
safety
planning.
And
this
is
right
at
the
scene
of
a
domestic
and
do
immediate
safety
planning
with
her
at
that.
At
that
point,
instead
of
waiting
for
a
day
or
two
later.

Both
victims
sought,
shelter
after
they
used
the
telephone
that
evening.
So
it's
a
great
tool.
We've
been
partnering
with
the
attorney
general's
office,
providing
training
throughout
the
state
right
now
for
the
other,
smaller
agencies
who
do
not
have
resources
so
anyway,
that's
all
I
have,
unless
you
all
have
any
questions.
B
AD
Well,
we're
really
working
hard,
I
think,
collaborating
with
our
advocates
in
the
state
and,
like
I
said,
we've
been
number
three
for
the
last
two
years
in
homicides
with
intimate
partner,
domestics
and
we're
really
trying
very
hard
to
get
the
education
out
there
and
the
word
that
there
is
help
and
by
the
immediacy
of
providing
this
assistance
on.
A
call,
I
think
is,
is
huge.
As
a
matter
of
fact,
we
we
have
been
bombarded
with
requests.
As
a
matter
of
fact,
I
got
a
call
from
a
chief
in
south
carolina.
AD
B

E

AC
J
Absolutely
wonderful
program-
and
it's
just
a
tragedy
that
this
is
another
one
of
the
lists
where
oklahoma
rises
to
the
top.
I
so
appreciate
the
collaboration
with
the
y
they're
doing
such
great
work
at
their
shelter,
we're
they're
just
about
to
do
the
ribbon-cutting
for
the
second
housing
facility.
I
mean
the
shelter
at
the
y
is
at
102
capacity.
100
of
the
time,
I
think-
and
we
just
don't-
have
enough
places
for
people
to
to
seek
shelter.
J
AD
AD
AD
And
there
there
is
a
christie
mitchell
from
the
y
has
a
video
of
a
victim
who
said,
if
it
wasn't
for
that
officer
who
returned
to
her
house
several
times
and
believed
in
her
that
she
wouldn't
have
left,
and
she
probably
would
have-
she
probably
wouldn't
be
with
us
right
now
so
they're.
Finding,
though,
through
this
study,
they
found
that
95
percent
of
the
victims
that
they
spoke
to
have
been
strangled.
So
that's
kind
of
the
new
thing.
AD
Q
AD
R
Yeah
pete,
I
I
I
think
I
I
we
need
to
compliment
senator
floyd,
also
for
taking
the
ball
and
running
with
it's.
Not.
We,
as
some
of
you
probably
heard
me,
complain
about
the
lack
of
support
that
we
received
from
the
legislature
on
a
number
of
issues,
but
this
is
an
issue
where
somebody
took
the
problem
and
really
got
after
it,
and
we
owe
her
a
debt
of
gratitude
for
that
also,
because
that
that
doesn't
happen
nearly
often
enough
and
what
I
think
we
need
to
point
it
out
when
it
does
happen.
