[QUARTERLY ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT REPORT]

THEY'RE LOOKING TO EXPAND THE SEARCH SALTED MONTHLY EMAIL, PLASTIC CONSTRUCTION UPDATES.

ALSO THE PROJECT BRIEFINGS AS THEY NORMALLY DO. ON A REGULAR BASIS. THEY HAVE 65 LOSSES ACROSS NORTH AMERICA WITH 1100 BROKERS. THEY ALSO PRESENTED IN THE MONTHLY DIFFERENT CHAPTERS OF THE DIFFERENT REAL ESTATE GROUPS IN COLUMBUS REGION. 3300 MEMBERS AS WELL AS 13,000 MEMBERS NATIONALLY AS WELL AND THEN ALSO GET 306 COLD CALLS TO TARGET PROSPECTS. AND THEN ALSO HAD ALMOST 4000 ONLINE VIEWS AND 803 UNITE UNIQUE PROSPECTS THAT WERE GENERATED AS WELL AS THE WEBSITE. NEXT TIME, PLEASE. SO THESE ARE SOME OF THE LEADS THAT WE'RE CURRENTLY WORKING ON 10 WEEKS FROM JOBS ALL HAVE ONE COLUMBUS. I WILL COMMENT. IF THEY'RE NOT LOOKING INNOVATION PARK. THEY'RE ALSO LOOKING AT A COUPLE OF PROPERTIES THAT STARTING VOLLRATH THOSE, THERE ARE THREE MAIN PROPERTIES, ALSO SOME PROPERTY OFF. WEAVER ROAD. ALSO THERE'S ONE USER THAT'S ACTUALLY LOOKING AT THAT SIDE AS WELL. 15 INTERNAL WEEDS, WHICH ARE GENERATED FROM PHONE CALLS, WE RECEIVED THE PHONE CALLS THAT WE ACTUALLY MAKE. 14 LEADS FROM ONE ASSOCIATES THEY'RE WORKING ON, AND WE ALSO HAVE THREE MEETINGS WITH DIFFERENT INDUSTRIAL DEVELOPERS SERVICE LAST QUARTER. SKINNY BAR, COLLABORATIVE EFFORTS. WE CONTINUE NEGOTIATIONS. WE

[00:20:05]

I WANT ONES WE WANT TO ATTEND. UM, C S IS ONE OF THE FIRST ONES THAT COMES UP IN LAS VEGAS. I DON'T THINK WE'RE SITTING AND REPRESENTED THIS YEAR, BUT THAT'S PROBABLY SOMETHING MOVIN.

START BACK IN 2023 YOU SMART SHADES. CONNECT IS ACTUALLY THE CITY COLUMBUS OR WILL PARTICIPATE IN THAT. AND THEN ALSO THE MIDWEST. HE WAS JAPAN CONFERENCE IN CHICAGO THAT AGAIN WE'RE NOT FOR CERTAIN I BELIEVE THAT MIGHT BE DELAYED AGAIN. WE HAVE TO SEE WHAT WILL HAPPEN WITH THAT. AND THEN ALSO, YOU CAN SEE THE INTERNATIONAL. COUNTS IN OKLAHOMA CITY AND THEN THE COMMERCIAL REAL ESTATE FROM MOLINA ASSOCIATE STANDPOINT, THEY ATTEND THE MIDWEST REGION.

ALSO THEY DO. THE LAS VEGAS PRESIDENTS MEETING OF LEE ASSOCIATES AND ALSO THE NATIONAL INTERNATIONAL, WHICH IS IN THAT IN FOR THE BOARD OF REALTORS. NEXT SLIDE TALKS ABOUT DEVELOPMENT OF THE MC. I'VE ALREADY MENTIONED THAT THE BUILDING IS ACTUALLY COMPLETED.

WE'VE ACTUALLY ALL THE AGREEMENTS HAVE BEEN APPROVED BY THE CITY, THE COUNTY, OHIO STATE AND THE POOR AUTHORITY. IT'S A MATTER OF THINKING THOSE DEALS WHICH WE'RE WAITING. WE'RE WAITING ON THE LEASE AGREEMENT WITH SOUTH GATE WHICH ACTUALLY IS JUST CARAMELIZED TODAY, VERBALLY. SO I THINK WE'RE READY TO GO. AND SO AMY WILL NEXT STEPS BASICALLY WILL BE FINISHING THE SPACE INSIDE THE MM 18,000 SQUARE FEET. WE ACTUALLY TALKED TO ANOTHER COMPANY TODAY THAT HAS INTERESTING AND POTENTIAL OFFICE AND A MIX SO VERY ENCOURAGED ABOUT THAT AS WELL. SO THAT'S KIND OF WHAT THEY DON'T KNOW ANYTHING. NEXT SLIDE ARE KIND OF SOME BONUS SLIDES, BUT I THINK IT'S VERY IMPORTANT IF WE LOOK AT EDUCATION AND WHAT WE'RE WORKING ON. I THINK IT'S PRETTY REMARKABLE WHEN YOU SEE WE HAVE 205 HIGH SCHOOL INTERNSHIPS BETWEEN MARY'S DAUGHTER EARLY COLLEGE HIGH SCHOOL IN OHIO HIGH POINT. VERY ENCOURAGING. YOU SEE THAT TOLLS ACTUALLY HAS 114 SO ALL TOLD, THERE'S OVER 300 INTERNSHIPS, SOME OF WHICH ARE IN LOGAN COUNTY AS WELL. AND I THINK IN CHAMPAGNE GAMES BECAUSE SOME OF THESE. R OHIO, HIGH POINT BUT DOWN BELOW TALKS ABOUT THE STUDENTS THAT INVOLVED WE HAVE 55 STUDENTS AT MARY'S OR EARLY COLLEGE HIGH SCHOOL, THEY'RE DOING INTERNSHIPS 36 AT OHIO HIGH POINT TOLLS HAS 63, JOHN ALDER 10 AND FAIRBANKS ONE. BUT AGAIN, I THINK IT SHOWS THE DEDICATION THAT OUR SCHOOL DISTRICTS HAVE TOWARDS THESE HIGH SCHOOL INTERNSHIPS PROGRAMS THAT WE NEVER HAD. THAT IS THAT OPPORTUNITY. THAT'S A GREAT PROGRAM THAT I THINK WE SHOULD CONTINUE TO TOUT OVER TO THE RIGHT TALKS ABOUT SOME TOOLS THAT WE'RE ACTUALLY WORKING WITH THE SCHOOL DISTRICT. SO ON ONE IS YOU SCIENCE, WHICH ACTUALLY ISN'T HAVE TO DO TESTS AS WELL AS INTEREST TASK FOR STUDENTS.

DETERMINE YOUR PATHWAY TOO MUCH EARLIER STAGE AND SEVENTH GRADE. SO WE'RE WORKING ON. WE HAVE A PROGRAM THAT WE ACTUALLY FUNDED THE FIRST YEAR AND WE'RE CURRENTLY WORKING ON ALL THE SCHOOL DISTRICTS ABOUT THE ENTIRE COUNTY. THE HOURS ACTUALLY WILL HAVE THEIR SEVENTH GRADE STUDENTS AS WELL AS NINTH AND 10TH GRADE STUDENTS WILL ACTUALLY TASTED TAKE THIS EXAM TO HELP THEM IN EARLIER STATES DETERMINE THEIR CAREER PATHS, AND THEY ARE LOADED THEIR BOTTOM, RIGHT. YOU CAN SEE THE ACADEMY IS SOMETHING WE'VE BEEN WORKING ON. THAT'S WHERE BASICALLY A SHARK TANK FOR STUDENTS. SO FAR WE'VE HAD 104 STUDENTS IN FIVE YEARS PARTICIPATE, AND THESE STUDENTS HAVE ACTUALLY HAD 81 STARTUPS, SOME OF WHICH ARE STILL GOING STRONG TODAY AS WELL. WE'RE GOING TO CONTINUE TO WORK ON THE SPONSORING AS WELL. NEXT SLIDE GIVES YOU KIND OF A WORKFORCE IN TOWN. UPDATES. THE CURRENT UNEMPLOYMENT FOR THE ENTIRE COUNTY 3.3% OPEN POSITIONS, FIVE MILE RADIUS. SOME AREAS WERE ABOUT 1213 100, JOBS, 10 MILE RACE 4500, AND YOU CAN SEE A 20 MILE RACE OVER 11,000. 500 JOBS ARE NEARLY THAT NOW. MY LITTLE CAREER, WHICH IS OUR LOCAL CAREER, POSTING THAT WE JUST SET UP OF LOGAN COUNTY. WE HAVE 175

[00:25:02]

FIRST DAY WE REALIZED THE BUILDINGS. CLOSE TO BEING FILLED UP WITH THE DEVELOPER. SO WE'VE HAD CONVERSATIONS. THEIR PLAN IS A START IN MARCH, AND OF COURSE, THAT IS DEPENDENT ON THE CONSTRUCTION EXPENSES OR COSTS AT THAT TIME. BUT THEY HAVE FULL PLANS TO ACTUALLY START NEXT YEAR AND CONSTRUCTION THE SECOND BUILDING, WHICH HAD BEEN 112,000 SQUARE FEET. OKAY 112 IN COMPARISON WITH THIS BUILDING 84,000 SQUARE 54. OKAY SO IT'S ABOUT 1 20% LARGER. THEN THE POST BUILDING SPACES WILL BE A LITTLE LARGER INSTEAD OF 18,000 SQUARE FOOT INCREMENTS. I THINK THERE ARE MORE LIKE 20 TO 30,000 SQUARE FEET, SO THEY'RE GONNA BE A LITTLE LARGER SPACES AS WELL.

MHM. OKAY AND THEN ANIL ACTUALLY MADE THE BUILDING THAT WE CURRENTLY HAVE SO THAT THE LOADING DOCKS FACING EACH OTHER AND THEN WHEN YOU DRIVE INTO CURRENTLY WHEN YOU DIED, AND 33.

IS HE THE PRETTY SIDE AND THEN WHEN YOU GAVE ON INNOVATION PARK YOU SEE THE PERIOD CRITICIZED OF THE OTHER BUILDING? KIND OF LIKE A DOUBLE DOUBLE FACE. BUILDING OR DOUBLE YOUR FRIEND IS BUILDING? YEAH, SO THE GAME PLAN FROM A STAFF PERSPECTIVE AND WORKING WITH THE DEVELOPER THAT WE WANTED ALL THE TRUCK DOCKS TO BE HIDDEN FROM 33. FROM AN INNOVATION WAY, SO THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT WE'LL SEE WILL BE AN ALLY FOR THE TRUCKS AND SO FORTH IN THE MIDDLE. WONDERFUL I'M REALLY GLAD TO HEAR THAT. THANK YOU. BUILDINGS BEAUTIFUL SCARLET GREGOR BOX. IT'S ALSO LOOKS GOOD IN THE MORNING AND WHAT THE SUNSHINE IS LOOK PARTICULARLY GOOD THIS SATURDAY.

YES, WELL, ESPECIALLY FOR A CLOCK. UM THE OTHER THING WE WANT TO SHOW TONIGHT, IS IT UNLESS IT WAS ANY MORE QUESTIONS. BUT. IF THERE'S NOT WE HAVE A VIDEO. WE'D LIKE TO SHOW YOU. IT'S ACTUALLY A FOREIGN DIRECT. ACTUALLY, THE CONSUL GENERAL'S OFFICE CAME TO LESSONS THAT WOULD LOVE TO HAVE A VIDEO. AND SO WE ALSO WE TIED IT INTO KIND OF AN ECONOMIC IS ON THE VIDEO TO SHOW THE IMPORTANCE OF FBI TO US FOREIGN DIRECT INVESTMENT WHAT IT MEANS TO MARY'S, THOUGH AND SO WITH THAT WE'RE GOING TO SHOW THE VIDEO TO SEE VERY SHORT VIDEO.

THE CITY OF MARYSVILLE WAS KIND OF A SLEEPY LITTLE TOWN. IT HAD SOME INDUSTRY THAT IT REALLY WASN'T VIBRANT. THEN WE FORMED A PARTNERSHIP WITH HONDA. BUT WE'VE ADDED 23 24 OTHER JAPANESE OWNED COMPANIES SINCE THEN. MORE TECHNOLOGY. NORTH AMERICA IS AUTOMOTIVE DEVELOPMENT COMPANY AND WE INVESTIGATED THIS AREA LOOKED ANT CITIES, TWO SIDED MARY AS WELL.

REALLY MEANT MORE OF WHO WE ARE AS A COMPANY AND WHAT WE LIKE TO DO THAT KIND OF SMALL TOWN FIELD 2000 AND THREE WE ESTABLISHED OUR BUSINESS HERE IN NORTHWEST COLUMBUS IN 2000 AND SIX WE MADE THE UNION COUNTY OUR HOME BY BUILDING A FACILITY AND FACTORY 1 2013. WE ESTABLISHED FRIENDSHIPS. CITY RELATIONSHIP WITH YOUR E. AND YOU'RE A JAPAN IS A COMMUNITY THAT HAS A HONDA FACILITY. I SEE A LOT OF SIMILARITIES IN THE PEOPLE THAT I MET IN JAPAN TO THE PEOPLE OF UNION COUNTY. I THINK WE. UM BOTH OF US ARE HONEST AND STRAIGHTFORWARD AND HARDWORKING

[00:30:01]

OUR PROGRAM HAS REALLY. A GROWN WE'RE AT ENROLLMENT BETWEEN THE MIDDLE SCHOOL AND HIGH SCHOOL OF NEARLY 300 STUDENTS ENGAGED IN JAPANESE LEARNING AND CULTURE. LEARNING IT WAS VERY CLEAR TO US THAT WE WANTED TO EXPOSE OUR STUDENTS TO LEARNING THAT LANGUAGE TO MAKE THEM MORE MARKETABLE AND FUTURE READY, AND IT'S SOMETHING THAT IS WONDERFUL TO SEE THOSE LEADERS OF THE NEX.

GENERATION OF THE FUTURE DEVELOPING THOSE RELATIONSHIPS AND THE KNOWLEDGE THAT I THINK YOU'RE GOING TO HELP COMPANIES WHO ARE LOCATED HERE. YOU HAVE JAPANESE CULTURE AND YOU HAVE. U S CULTURE BUT HEARING NORTHWEST COLUMBUS THEY REALLY WELCOME YOU. BORN DIRECT INVESTMENT IS WHAT MAKES THESE COMPANIES WANT TO OPERATE AND OPERATE HERE SUCCESSFULLY FOREIGN INVESTMENT IN THIS REGION AND IN OHIO AND GENERAL, I THINK THIS IS REALLY IMPORTANT. IT REALLY ESTABLISHES THE LOCAL COMMUNITY AND ALSO THE STATE. FRANKLY THE REASON I CHOSE THIS AREA FOR MY INVESTMENT. BECAUSE YOU HAVE SUCH A GREAT SUPPORT FROM COMMUNITY MEMBERS SUCH AS CHAMBER OF COMMERCE, OHIO SMALL BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT AND ONE COLUMBUS. JUST TO NAME A FEW.

MARYSVILLE OBVIOUSLY VERY CLOSE TO THIS AREA. COLUMBUS HELPS YOU RECRUIT. WE'VE BROUGHT PEOPLE IN FROM ALL OVER THIS CORRIDOR IS GROWN QUITE A BIT A LOT OF BUILDINGS GOING ON HERE. WHAT'S THE. FIBER NETWORK THAT'S BEING BUILT BETWEEN BASICALLY OHIO STATE AND TRANSPORTATION RESEARCH CENTER. IT'S A CENTRAL LOCATION TO EVERYTHING. YOU'RE CLOSE ENOUGH THAT YOU CAN GET TWO THINGS RIGHT AWAY, SUCH AS AIRPORT DOWNTOWN. THERE'S LAND READY TO BE UTILIZED FROM NOT ONLY JUST DEVELOPMENT SIDE BUT MANUFACTURING AS WELL. HOTELS ARE GOING UP LEFT AND RIDE.

RESTAURANTS ARE HERE. EVERYTHING WE NEED IS HERE, NOT JUST SHOPPING CENTER. ABOUT MAJORITY CUSTOMERS, AND OUR VENDORS ARE SURROUNDED. HAPPY. NO, I FEEL AT HOME. WHEN I'M HERE. I TRULY BELIEVE OUR RELATIONSHIP WITH YURI, JAPAN. IS MAKING MARYSVILLE BETTER COMMUNITY.

THREE YEARS. 30 OUT OF DATE, AND THERE'S A FEW THINGS THAT CHANGED, BUT NO, WE'RE GOING TO PROMOTE THAT ON SOCIAL MEDIA WERE ALSO SEND IT TO YOUR E AND THE CONSUL GENERAL'S OFFICE. BU.

IT'S NOT THAT WE SHOULD BE PROUD OF AND ARE STRONG RELATIONS JAPAN I THINK WE'RE GONNA CONTINUE TO SPEECH. THAT'S A GREAT VIDEO. THANKS FOR SHARING THAT, ERIC ANY OTHER QUESTIONS.

OKAY. WE WILL. WE WILL MOVE ON TO PLANNING COMMISSION AND I THINK WE'LL START WITH KYLE. AND

[PLANNING COMMISSION REPORT]

THAT WAS APPROVED WITH A 40 S ZERO. NO VOTE. THAT IS ALL OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION ITEMS. DID MR FORGET SOMEONE THAT YOU WANT TO FOUR. OKAY? I'LL BE ENROLLING. OKAY, GO AHEAD. UM

[00:35:01]

APPOINTED EVER WANTED TO MAKE AND MY 12 YEARS I'VE NEVER HAD AS MANY COMMENTS FROM PEOPLE SAYING THAT. WHY DID YOU APPROVE IT? WELL IT WAS NOT THE ADMINISTRATION WHO APPROVED IT.

IT WAS NOT THIS COUNCIL WHO APPROVED IT. YEAH, IT BASICALLY WAS THE PLANNING COMMISSION WHO WAS GIVEN THE TASK AND LIKE SAID THEY DID. DUE TO DUE DILIGENCE. YEAH I WAS REALLY AMAZED AS TO THE NUMBER OF CITIZENS THAT CAME OUT AT THE END OF THE DAY. YOU DID FALL BACK AGAIN ON THE PLANNING COMMISSION. IT'S NOT SOMETHING THAT WE AS A. COUNCIL DIRECTED OR THAT THE ADMINISTRATION DIRECTED BECAUSE YOU EVEN ASKED THE QUESTION DURING THE MEETING OF S LEE AND SAID, WHAT IS THE POSITION OF THE ADMINISTRATION AND BASICALL, THE ADMINISTRATION SAID WE ARE NEUTRAL ON THIS. DONE AND YOU MAY REMEMBER YOU MAY REMEMBER THAT QUESTION. BUT I DO REMEMBER THAT YOU DID ASK THAT. YEAH UM, THE COMMENTS IN GENERAL OF THE PEOPLE THAT WERE THERE AND THOSE WERE NOT NECESSARILY. STAKEHOLDERS IN THE IMMEDIATE AREA, BUT THEY WORK DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY. UM THEY WERE DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ASSOCIATED WITH IT. YEAH AND SOME OF THOSE KIND OF THOSE. SOME OF THOSE COMMENTS WERE. AND OF COURSE, OVER TIME THAT WE HAVE LEARNED, ESPECIALLY THOSE OF US THAT LIVE ON THE WEST SIDE TO USE SPORTS STREET AS OUR MAJOR THERAPY PILE. YEAH WE DON'T WANT TO USE FIFTH STRAIGHT ANYMORE. SO FOR ABOUT 55 YEARS AFTER WE READ IT ALL OF THE FOREST STREET. UM BUT NOW AS MR AMES MENTIONED, UM AT THE

[00:40:07]

YOU'RE GETTING CHILLY. YOU NEED TO MAKE THAT RIGHT HAND TURN AND AT CERTAIN TIMES OF THE DAY, NOT ALL DAY, BUT CERTAIN TIMES OF THE DAY. YOU HAVE A DIFFICULTY MAKING RIGHT HAND TURNS EVEN GETTING ONTO, UM, GETTING ON TO CHARITY. YEAH JUST IMAGINE THIS. THIS THIS, UM GAS STATION WHERE TRAFFIC WOULD HAVE TO COME OUT OF THE GAS STATION. I NEED TO MAKE A LEFT HAND TURN MERGING WITH RIGHT HAND TURNED, WHICH SOMETIMES IS ALREADY BACKED UP. SO AND THOSE ARE THE TYPE OF THINGS THAT CITIZENS ARE CONCERNED ABOUT. YEAH ONE OF THE COMMENTS THAT I THINK THAT EVEN KISS HIM MADE. UM IF YOU GO EAST ON, UM, AVENUE, YOU ARE ALLOWED TO MAKE A LEFT HAND TURN INTO SHEETS, AND HER CONCERN WAS THAT HOW SOON WILL THAT BACK UP IN OUR FIRE BUILDING BACK UP. IF YOU GET THAT AGAIN, IT'S A CERTAIN TIME OF DAY. SO AT THE END THE DIFFERENT COMMENTS THAT WE HEARD, YOU KNOW, WE'RE PRETTY MUCH SHE JUST GREAT. LOCATION IS LOUSY. YEAH AND THAT AND I HEARD THAT FROM MORE PEOPLE THAT WERE AT THAT PARTICULAR MEETING AND THAT IS CONCERNING PEOPLE. YEAH, SO THE QUESTION AND I COULD PUT YOU ON THE SPOT HERE FOR A MOMENT. UM AFTER THE MEETING.

I'M SURE YOU LOOK AT IT IF YOU WERE TO LOOK AT FIVE POINT, BUT WHAT IS THE EARLIEST THAT ANY TYPE OF CONCRETE PLANS COULD BE MADE FOR THAT AREA OUT? WELL WE'VE PUT TOGETHER A COUPLE OPTIONS. I THINK THE FASTEST COMPLETION WOULD BE AND I THINK I'LL CORRECT ME IF I'M WRONG WOULD BE AT THE END OF 2024. I THINK THE FACT IS THAT THE FAST FAST AS WE CAN MOVE AND STARTED CONSTRUCTION SPRING OF 2024. AND THAT'S EVERYTHING GOES PERFECTLY SMOOTH WHEN IT COMES TO RIGHT AWAY ACQUISITION. DEPENDING ON WHAT IMPROVEMENTS. YOU KNOW, WE END UP DECIDING TO DO. OKAY SO I DO WANT PEOPLE TO KNOW. UM. YOU KNOW, BECAUSE I YOU KNOW, WE NEED ADMINISTRATIVELY WITH DEVELOPMENTS WHEN THEY COME UP AND I THINK IT'S VERY IMPORTANT FOR EVERYBODY TO KNOW WHEN THEY MET. WITH OUR ADMINISTRATION. AND THEY SAT DOWN AND THEY STARTED TALKING ABOUT THE SITE THAT THEY WERE INTERESTED IN. WE DID. WE APPROACHED A LITTLE BIT THE SAME WAY WITH SHEETS THAT HAVE YOU THOUGHT ABOUT OTHER SITES. AND SHEETS MADE IT VERY CLEAR IN OUR MEETINGS. THAT'S THE SITE THAT THEY'RE INTERESTED IN NOW. WE SAID, WELL, THEN YOU'LL HAVE A PROCESS TO GO THROUGH BECAUSE YOU'LL NEED A CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT IN ORDER TO BE ABLE TO UTILIZE THAT SITE, AND THEY SAID, WE'RE WILLING TO TAKE THAT GAMBLE. WE BELIEVE WILL BRING A BUSINESS AND A PRODUCT AND WILL WORK WITH THE CITY TO ENSURE THAT THEY HELP MANAGE. YOU KNOW THE ISSUE ASSOCIATED WITH TRAFFIC. KEEP IN MIND, YOU KNOW IF RITE AID WOULD HAVE EVER BEEN. MAYBE A NORMAL OPERATING PHARMACY. WITH A DRIVE THROUGH IN 60 PARKING SPACES. IF THAT WOULD HAVE BEEN A BUSY IS YOUR BUSINESS. WHAT THE IMPACT WOULD HAVE BEEN EQUIVALENT TO WHAT THE SHEETS IS GOING TO BRING BECAUSE THEY HAVE 60 PARKING SPACES AT THE RIGHT AGE LOCATION WITH A DRIVER PHARMACY DRIVE THROUGH. SHEET IS GOING TO HAVE LESS THAN 30 SPACES, PARKING SPACES AND OF COURSE, THEY WILL HAVE FUEL BUT. UNDERSTAND THAT, YOU KNOW, UM. THERE IS A PROCESS AND WE FOLLOWED THE PROCESS. WE DID SUGGEST OTHER LOCATIONS, BUT THEY WERE VERY INTERESTED IN THAT PARTICULAR LOCATION, AND THEY WERE WILLING TO DO WHAT THEY NEEDED TO DO TO MAKE IT WORK. AND ANY LISTENING TO THE RECORDER. I HAVE TO SAY THAT I AM VERY IMPRESSED WITH WHAT THEY'RE WILLING TO DO. THE ONLY QUESTION TODAY HAVE IS THAT IF IT'S GOING TO TAKE US. FOR FIVE MONTHS TO COME UP WITH A PLAN. DO WE HAVE A PLAN YET? OR IF WE ARE GOING TO DEVELOP A PLAN WOULD SHEETS BE WILLING TO WAIT? TO SEE HOW THEY FIT INTO THAT PLAN, OR ARE THEY STILL GOING TO

[00:45:08]

SO THEY STILL NEED TO GET HIS OWN PERMIT. THEY STILL NEED TO GO THROUGH THE DESIGN REVIEW BOARD. STILL NEED TO GET APPROVED. TRAFFIC IMPACT STUDY. UM THERE'S STEPS THAT STILL HAVE TO TAKE PLACE BEFORE THEY CAN BREAK GROUND. WE SPOKE WITH HIM A COUPLE WEEKS AGO. THEY SAID IN AN IDEAL WORLD, THEY WOULD HAVE ALL THEIR APPROVALS BY LIKE JUNE 1ST THE NEXT YEAR, SO WE'RE STILL SIX MONTHS AWAY BEFORE THEY GET ALL THEIR APPROVALS BASED ON THEIR PRELIMINARY SCHEDULE. TO ANSWER YOUR SECOND QUESTION ABOUT THE DIFFERENT OPTIONS THAT IN THEIR SECTION.

TURNING THIS WHOLE TIME THAT WE'VE MET WITH THEM. WE'VE THER. WE MADE IT VERY CLEAR THAT THERE'S MULTIPLE OPTIONS BEING TOSSED AROUND WHETHER IT'S A NEW RIGHT TURN LANE WHETHER IT'S AROUND ABOUT WHETHER IT'S REALIGNMENT OF THE INTERSECTION. THEY ARE DESIGNING THEIR SITE TO ACCOMMODATE ALL OF THOSE. ALL OF THOSE IMPROVEMENTS. SO IF THEY START CONSTRUCTION AND WE END UP CHOOSING. OPTION A OVER OPTION B THEN WILL NOT HAVE AN EFFECT ON THEIR SIDE, SO WE'RE WORKING WITH THEM TO HAVE THEM KIND OF POSITION IN SIGHT. YOU KNOW, LATER SIDE OUT WITH ALL OPTIONS ON THE TABLE. OKAY AND THAT JUNE 1ST WOODED GO INSIDE WITH A PLAN THAT WE WOULD HAVE. IN PLACE, POSSIBLY SO THE GOAL IS TO GET A REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS OUT FOR POTENTIAL CONSULTANTS IN EARLY JANUARY. AND I THINK WITHIN 4 TO 6 MONTHS WE CAN COME UP WITH A DECENT IDEA OF THE REAL ALTERNATIVES. MAYBE IT HAS SOME PUBLIC MEETINGS AND DO GO THROUGH THAT PLUMBING THERE AN ENGINEERING STUDY WHERE WE WOULD HAVE AN IDEA OF WHAT WE WANT. YOU KNOW WHAT PATH WE'RE GOING TO GO DOWN AT THAT TIME? YEAH HELP CLARIFY WITH THAT, IF YOU IF YOU DON'T MIND, MR PRESIDENT, THERE HAS BEEN PRELIMINARY STUDIES DONE. CORRECT YES, CORRECT. SO IT'S NOT LIKE. IT'S A GREEN FIELD. I MEAN, THERE'S ALREADY BEEN SOME DOTTED LINES. THAT'S CORRECT. WHAT ON PAPER AND VARIOUS AREAS, SO THERE'S ALREADY IDEAS THAT HELP SUPPORT. THE RESPONSES AND WHAT WE'RE GOING TO LOOK AT IS ALL. DATA YOU KNOW, AS A TRAFFIC ENGINEER, I'M NOT A TRAFFIC ENGINEER, BUT THE TRAFFIC ENGINEER IS ALL THEY DO IS THEY INPUT INPUT THE EXISTING TRAFFIC IN THEIR SIMULATION. THEY ADD, YOU KNOW, FUTURE TO GROWTH, FUTURE TRAFFI, AND THEY SIMULATED THROUGH A ROUNDABOUT OR DIFFERENT SIGNAL TIMING, AND THEN THEY SEE WHAT WHAT LEG OF THAT INTERSECTION BACKS UP, YOU KNOW, SEE WHERE THE ISSUES ARE. THEY'LL BE ABLE TO TOWN AND HOPEFULLY THEY CAN KIND OF POINT US DOWN AND DIRECTION THAT SAYS, HEY, THIS OPTION IS A LOT BETTER THAN THE OTHER OPTION. IF WE END UP HAVING TWO OPTIONS. OTHERS HAVE SIMILAR PERFORMANCE FOR THAT INTERSECTION. THEN WE'LL HAVE TO MAKE A DECISION ON YOU KNOW WHAT WE THINK IS THE BEST ROUTE TO GO DOWN. SO HANK, DID YOU SAY THAT LEFT TURNS WILL NOT BE ALLOWED INTO SHEETS. ON EASTBOUND DELAWARE AVENUE. IT WILL THE INTENTIONS ARE YEAH, BUT WE UNDERSTOOD IS THAT THERE ARE LEFT TONES. BUT IF YOU ACTUALLY CURRENTLY THAT I LEFT, BUT IT GIVES SPACE FOR TWO VEHICLES.

OKAY SO, BASICALLY IF YOU TRAVEL ON DELAWARE AVENUE AND YOU GO WEST, AND THEN ONCE YOU GET PAST

[00:50:06]

IF IT CONTINUES TO MOVE FORWARD AS IT AS IT CURRENTLY IS PRESENTED. MR. CHAIR MR. GO AHEAD. THE. PLANNING COMMISSION, OF COURSE, WERE. THEY'RE TIED TO THE ZONING ORDINANCE. AND FOLLOW THAT ACCORDINGLY. UM AND ADDRESS THE SITUATION WITH THE KNOWLEDGE THEY HAVE AT THE TIME. NOW I HEARD KYLE SAY THAT A TRAFFIC STUDY IS YET TO BE SEEN. IS THAT CORRECT, KYLE? I WAS JUST GOING TO FOLLOW UP TO COUNCIL MEMBER BAY'S COMMENTS, SO WE DO HAVE THE TRAFFIC STUDY AND WE JUST SENT THEM OUR PRELIMINARY COMMENTS THE LEFT TURN THAT YOU WERE TALKING ABOUT. I ASSUME YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT THE. PERMITTED LEFT. TURN OUT ONTO DELAWARE AVENUE IS THAT WHEN YOU WERE TALKING ABOUT THE ONE FROM DELAWARE AVENUE TO TURN LEFT INTO THE SHEETS? YES COMMENT WAS TO REEVALUATE THAT WITH THE RIGHT IN RIGHT OUT AND NOT ALLOW LEFT TURNS INTO SHEETS. OKAY THAT'S THAT'S I THINK THAT'S A THAT'S A GOOD STEP FORWARD. ACTUALLY, IT'S NOT. BECAUSE THERE'S NO LEFT TURN. THERE IS NO LEFT TURN LANE ON THE CHERRY, SO EVERYBODY THAT WANTED TO TURN LEFT ON CHERRYWOOD BACK UP. EVERYBODY WANTED TO GO ON A DELAWARE AVENUE. TO GO EASTBOUND ON DELAWARE AVENUE. OKAY SO I WOULD ACTUALLY BE WORSE. SO THERE IS. THERE'S TWO LANES OF YOU GO EASTBOUND. THERE'S A LEFT AND. AN OUTSIDE LANE AND WE'RE GONNA EVALUATE CHANGING. THE LIST GOES STRAIGHT IS THE SAME ONE THAT GOES LEFT BUT THAT, YEAH, THAT'S WHERE WE CAN HAVE.

THE DEVELOPER PAID TO FIX THAT. SO THAT BE SOMETHING AS PART OF THEIR TRAFFIC STUDY, DEPENDING ON THE RESULT MIGHT BE SHEETS THAT HAS TO REPAIR THAT, SO DON'T PAY ATTENTION TO WHAT IT IS TODAY. BUT THAT'S WHERE THAT'S WHERE, UH, YOU KNOW, WE EVALUATE THE TRAFFIC STUDY AND DETERMINE WHO IS RESPONSIBLE FOR THEM. PLEASE. BUT I THINK THERE'S STILL A LOT OF WORK TO BE DONE THERE. AND I GUESS WE NEED TO BE WE NEED TO STAY ON TOP OF IT. BECAUSE, UM WE'RE ADDING A PROBLEM TO A PROBLEM. BUT I THINK THAT THERE IS A LOT OF WORK TO BE DONE THERE. AND I THINK THERE ARE A LOT OF APPROVED USES. THAT WOULD CREATE THE SAME AMOUNT OF ISSUES. IT'S JUST GOTTEN TO THE POINT WHERE WE HAVE TO ADDRESS FIVE POINTS, NO MATTER WHAT GOES IN THERE, I COULD SEE THE SAME ISSUES COMING FROM A BANK. SO I'M LIKE THIS BECAUSE I NEED ONLY CITY PLANNE.

THAT'S UP HERE FOR JUST A 2ND. 1ST OF ALL THE COMMENT MADE THAT A RIOT AID WOULD CAUSE THE SAME AMOUNT OF TRAFFIC AS A TOC COMMERCIAL IS WRONG. BECAUSE SHE EATS GAS STATION. IT'S ALWAYS LOCATED ON THE OUTSKIRTS OF YOUR TOWN. CAUSE YOU KNOW WHY IT'S HIGH VOLUME TRAFFIC BUSINESS.

YOU NEVER SEE A RITE AID CVS OR ANYBODY ELSE ON BIO 27. NORMALLY THEY BUILT IN NEIGHBORHOOD DISTRICTS. YOUR NEIGHBORHOOD BUILDINGS WESTERVILLE HAD TO CBS RIGHT IN THEIR DOWNTOWN. NOT A SHEET. BECAUSE SHE CATERS TO A HEAVILY VOLUME TRAFFIC THAN ANY ANY ANY PHARMACY EVERWOOD.

SECOND OF ALL THE BUSINESSES WERE LOCATING ON THE UPTOWN AREA DIRECTLY IMPACTS THE OLD THE OLD RESIDENTIAL DISTRICT IN THIS TOWN. YOU KNOW HOW HARD IT IS TO GET OUT OF MY DRIVEWAY. OR FOR ANYBODY TO LIVE ON FOURTH STREET OR FIFTH STREET OR SIXTH STREET. ANYONE? BECAUSE THE CITY CONTINUES TO BUILD COMMERCIAL. BUSINESSES AROUND THE UPTOWN WITHOUT THE VISION OF HOW IT

[00:55:02]

I'M JUST GOING TO READ A SNIPPET OF IT. WHY DIDN'T HE SUCH ROADWAYS TO ACCOMMODATE INCREASES IN TRAFFIC DUE TO AREA GROWTH IS NOT AN OPTION AND SUCH IMPROVEMENTS WOULD POTENTIALLY RESULT RESULT IN THE LOSS OF STRUCTURES. IN THE CHANGE OF THE ATMOSPHERE OF THE TOWN, A SIGNIFICANT CONSTRAINT ON TRAFFIC THROUGH THE CITY OF THE AREA OF FIVE POINTS.

INTERSECTIONS DELAWARE AVENUE, COLUMBUS AVENUE, NORTH CHERRY STREET, EAST FIFTH STREET.

COVERAGE ON THE EAST SIDE OF TOWN. THE UPDATE TO THE EXISTING THERE WERE PLANS SEEKS TO ADDRESS EXISTING TRANSPORTATION CONSTRAINTS AND PLAN FOR ADDITIONAL ROADWAY CAPACITY AND CONNECTIVITY, WHICH WILL WORK IN CONJUNCTION WITH GOOD URBAN PLANNING. AS PRESENT, PLEASING AND EFFICIENT COMMUNITY PROTECTING THE ATMOSPHERE OF THE AREAS SUCH AS THE UPTOWN. SO THE THIRD AWAY MASTER PLAN CLEARLY STATES THAT IN 20 BY 2030. YES STREET WILL GET BIGGER AND THERE WILL BE MORE TRAFFIC. BUT IT ALSO STATES IN HERE THAT IF YOU WANT TO LIMIT THE AMOUNT OF TRAFFIC IN THE TOWN, YOU SURROUND THE POUND WITH WITH BUSINESSES THAT HAVE LOW VEHICLE VOLUME. WHICH IS THE EXACT OPPOSITE OF WHAT WE'VE BEEN DOING, BECAUSE WE HAVE ALLOWED THE SHEETS. WE'VE ALLOWED THE GAS STATIONS. I'M SORRY, SUGAR WILLIAMS AND THE GAS STATIONS.

THE AUTO PART STORES, WHICH GOES AGAINST THE THROWAWAY MASTER PLAN. ALSO FROM THE NEIGHBORHOOD MIX USE. FROM THE NEIGHBORHOOD MIXED USE. IT SAYS RESIDENTIAL USES ARE ENCOURAGED TO BE LOCATED ON THE UPPER FLOORS OF MULTI USE BUILDINGS WITH COMMERCIAL USE IS LOCATED ON THE GROUND FLOOR. THE DEVELOPMENT OF A DIVERSE RANGE OF HOUSING TYPES ARE ENCOURAGED TO RETRACT AND RETAIN FUTURE POPULATION AND DIFFERENT DEMOGRAPHICS. CHARACTERISTICS OF THE MARRIAGE WILL CURRENT POPULATION. THE LAST THING I'LL SAY ITS KEY FEATURES. PEDESTRIAN FRIENDLY STREETS AND HIGH QUALITY STREETSCAPES. SMALLER RETAIL AND OFFICE USES THAT SUPPORT LOCAL RESIDENTS AND PROVIDE EXPERIENCE SUCH AS CAFES, RESTAURANTS AND REALLY PUBLIC SPACES FOR GATHERING OF SEEDING AND WHITE. AND MAYORS WILL COMPREHENSIVE. THERE'S PICTURES OF WESTERVILLE GRAND BACK SLEIGH. EVERYBODY ALWAYS SAYS THAT WE ARE NOT LIKE THESE COMMUNITIES AND WE'RE NOT LIKE THESE COMMUNITIES. BUT I HOPE TO GOD THAT SOMEDAY WHEN I GO TO A COMPANY LIKE MK SK OR ANY OTHER PLANET DEVELOPED MESSIAH, I WANT MARY'S MOST PHOTO IN THESE BOOKS. BUT IT'S NEVER GOING TO BE THIS WAY BECAUSE WE'RE NOT VOTING WELL PLANNED NEIGHBORHOODS AND IT'S VERY UPSETTING. AND I JUST WANT TO SAY TO JERMAINE THAT YOU ACTUALLY DID READ AND THE REASON FOR YOU. VOTING WAS THE ROADWAY AND YOU HAMMERS. ANYWAY, I JUST WANT TO SAY THANK YOU FOR. YES.

PAPERS. FAR AS YOU. ALL FOR MHM. TELL US. HIS HEART DISEASE RECENTLY THROUGH TROPIC. REASON

[01:00:22]

WE ARE DOING THE HARD WORK. FIRST UNFORTUNATELY, I THINK KURT CONDITION RESISTANCE. IT'S JUST. THANK YOU FOR THE OPPORTUNITY SERVANT. PLACE. MR PRESIDENT? YES UM, A COUPLE OF THINGS. IF YOU GO BACK TO THE 19 FIFTIES, THERE WERE A TON OF. GAS STATIONS AND UPTOWN MARYSVILLE. THAT'S PART OF A ISSUE. BUT THAT'S WHAT THE WAY THEY DID IT BACK THEN, AND PART OF OUR REZONING OF THE UPTOWN AREA WAS TO TRY TO GET. THOSE GAS STATIONS TO GO THE NEXT STEP AWAY FROM OUR UPTOWN COMMERCIAL DISTRICT. AND. CHEATS IS LOOKING AT A SPOT THAT'S JUST OUTSIDE OF THAT UPTOWN COMMERCIAL DISTRICT. BUT THAT WOULD BE WHERE WE'RE TRYING TO PUSH THEM. UM, I'VE GOT A MUCH. MORE PHILOSOPHICAL QUESTION THAT I NEED TO ASK MR OSLO NEAR. WE APPOINT PLANNING COMMISSION PEOPLE AS COUNCIL MEMBERS. I'VE BEEN ASKED MANY TIMES TO CONTACT THEM TO GIVE MY OPINION AND HAVE NOT BECAUSE I DIDN'T THINK THAT WAS APPROPRIATE. THEY HAVE A VOTE.

WE HAVE A VOTER'S COUNCIL MEMBERS AS A COUNCIL MEMBER, INTERFERING WITH. A VOTE OF A PLANNING COMMISSION OR DESIGN REVIEW BOARD IS THAT APPROPRIATE? WELL I HAVE SOME THOUGHTS ABOUT THIS, AND I THINK THAT I THINK THE WORD INTERFERE MIGHT NOT MIGHT BE A LITTLE BIT STRONG. UM BUT, YOU KNOW, MY FEELING IS THAT COUNCIL MEMBERS CERTAINLY HAVE THEIR OWN OPINIONS, AND THERE. WELCOME AND ENCOURAGED, I GUESS EVEN TO EXPRESS THEIR OPINIONS ABOUT A DECISION THAT MAY BE PLANNING COMMISSION MADE. I MEAN, THIS IS AN OPEN MEETING, AND THERE'S NOTHING WRONG WITH THAT. AH BUT WE DO HAVE A PROCESS AND, UM IT AND WE HAVE A CODE AND THE CODE HAS BEEN ENACTED AND ADOPTED BY CITY COUNCIL. AND FOR INSTANCE, IF WE DIDN'T WANT TO GAS STATION AT THAT PARCEL, UH THEN WE SHOULD CHANGE THE CODE THEIR ZONING CODE. THIS THIS COUNSEL OR COUNSEL BEFORE YOU. OBVIOUSLY IT SETS FORTH. WHAT YOU KNOW HOW PARTICULAR AREAS CAN BE ZONED, AND I THINK THAT I THINK IT'S IMPORTANT. I'M COMING FROM THE LAWYERS, THE PERSON WHO HAS TO DEFEND THE CITY. THAT PERSPECTIVE, I THINK IT'S IMPORTANT TO RESPECT THE PROCES.

I DON'T THINK THERE'S ANYTHING WRONG WITH WITH WITH A COUNCIL MEMBER, SPEAKING OUT AND EXPRESSING HIS OR HER OPINION ABOUT A PARTICULAR DECISION THAT WAS MADE OR PARTICULAR DEVELOPMENT, THAT'S FINE. BUT I DO THINK IT UNDERMINES THE PROCESS WHEN A COUNCIL MEMBER U.

[01:05:06]

AND COMPARE IT EVEN TO WHAT SHEETS IS BRINGING. I'D BEEN A HECK OF A LOT MORE WORRIED ABOUT SOME OF THE ITEMS THAT ARE IN THERE AS A PERMITTED USE. IT'S A PERMITTED USE, THEY COULD GO IN LIKE A SCHOOL. OR A LARGE CHURCH. OR SOMETHING. THINK OF HOW MANY PEOPLE COULD ATTEND A CHURCH WHEN IT'S BEING EMPTIED, AND PEOPLE ARE GOING IN AS A AS A BUSY LOCATION. ALL I'M SAYING IS, DON'T DON'T THINK THAT, YOU KNOW, UH, THERE'S ANY ONE INDIVIDUAL OR ANY. OH THE ADMINISTRATION OR ANYTHING. THIS IS THIS HAS BEEN A TEAM EFFORT FROM OUR ZONING CODE. TO OUR COMPREHENSIVE PLAN TO OUR THOROUGHFARE PLAN AND EVERYTHING AND THERE'S A PROCESS TO IT. AND WE'RE ALL JUST TRYING TO FOLLOW THE PROCESS. AS IT'S BEEN. PROVIDED DO WE ALL GET EVERYTHING WE WANT AT THE END OF THE DAY WHEN THE WHEN A ZONING CODE IS APPROVED. I DIDN'T CARRY AMERI DIDN'T AGREE WITH EVERYTHING IN OUR ZONING CODE. I KNOW DONALD BURGER DIDN'T AGREE WITH EVERYTHING AND THE UPDATED ZONING CODE. BARAMA TEAM PLAYER. AND I'M NOT GOING TO BE POINTING FINGERS AT SOMEBODY ELSE. THAT. YOU KNOW, AND BLAMING ANYBODY ELSE FOR THE FACT THAT WE ALLOWED SOMETHING OR DIDN'T ALLOW SOMETHING. SO THAT IT JUST IRRITATES ME A LITTLE BIT WHEN THAT'S OUR FIRST. MOVE IS TO START POINTING FINGERS BECAUSE THERE IS A PROCESS AND I RESPECT THE PLANNING COMMISSION AND THIS PLANNING COMMISSION IN MY OPINION. IS THE BEST PLANNING COMMISSION THAT CITIES HAD, AT LEAST SINCE I'VE BEEN HERE. WE'VE GOT SOME KNOWLEDGEABLE PEOPLE THAT THERE ARE ASKED GOOD QUESTIONS. AND UM AND I THINK WE CAN CONTINUE TO IMPROVE ON THAT.

IS IT EVER THE BEST? MAYBE NOT. BUT I THINK WE'VE GOT A STRONG PLANNING COMMISSION AND OUR COMMISSIONS ARE GETTING STRONGER. SO. HMM JUST LIKE TO HEAR YOU SAY I. ALL OF YOU TALK, AND I APPRECIATE THAT REALLY GETTING ALL THE SAME. AFTER ME, AND I REPRESENT PEOPLE WHO DRIVE YOUR KNEES IN TOWN THERE BECAUSE I'M WORTH ONE REMEMBER THAT IS THE DRIVE THRU THEY'RE CONCERNED ABOUT THE TRAFFIC SO COMING FROM SOME. POSITION WHERE I'M TRYING TO LOOK AT THIS OBJECTIVELY, IT WOULD UPSET PEOPLE OF SHEETS THERE BECAUSE THE TRAFFIC LOVER. WHICH WOULD MAKE THE PEOPLE I REPRESENT UPSET. SO AS THAT REPRESENTATIVE, I'M CURIOUS IF THERE'S ANYTHING I CAN DO AS A AS A LEGISLATOR. TO MAYBE HAVE A UNNECESSARY CHECKING BALANCE. DECISION FROM THE BANKING

[01:10:07]

BUT YOU KNOW WHAT? I THINK THAT'S SOMETHING LOOK INTO THAT FURTHER TO THE BEST OF MY KNOWLEDGE AT THIS POINT. IT TAKES A MAJORITY OF. COUNCIL MEMBERS TO PASS LEGISLATION.

DOES NOT TAKE OF ALL COUNCIL MEMBERS, THEY WOULD NOT TAKE THE MAJORITY OF ALL COMMISSION MEMBERS, TOO. PASS, YOU KNOW? LOCATION PERMITS AND THAT THAT'S A DIFFERENT INTERPRETATION. FROM WHAT I'VE BEEN TOLD BY THE PREVIOUS LAW DIRECTOR, SO I THINK, YOU KNOW, WE JUST NEED TO LOOK AT SOME OF THESE ISSUES AND SEE WHAT OUR OPTIONS ARE. BECAUSE IT'S CLEAR. IT'S CLEAR THAT THIS CITY COUNCIL IS NOT 100% BEHIND THE DECISION THAT WAS MADE BY PLANNING COMMISSION.

LET'S LET'S MOVE ON, THOUGH. I MEAN, WE'VE SPENT A LOT OF TIME ON THIS. LET'S GO TO SO I APOLOGIZE FOR GETTING GETTING YOU INTO THIS, BUT I THOUGHT THIS WOULD BE A GOOD WAY TO CLEAR THE AREA. AND GET THE CONVERSATION STARTED. I THINK THAT WAS GOOD, GOOD DISCUSSION,

[COMMENTS OF THE CITY MANAGER AND COUNCIL PERSONS AND GENERAL DISCUSSION]

REINITIATE AND LOOK AT A LITTLE BIT ON THE ZONING CODE. AND SO WE MAY AS WE VENTURE INTO 2020 TO MAYBE TAKE A LOOK AT A FEW OF THOSE ITEMS TO SEE IF THEY NEED TO BE RECONSIDERED. SO OTHER THAN THAT, THAT'S ALL I HAVE TONIGHT. THANK YOU. THANK YOU, TERRY. ERIN. I JUST WANTED TO WISH EVERYONE A VERY BLESSED THEM. HAPPY THANKSGIVING WEEK. I HOPE YOU ALL ENJOY TIME SPENT WITH YOUR FRIENDS AND FAMILY. ENJOY THAT TURKEY. I KNOW I CANNOT WAIT AND I GO BUCKS.

THANK YOU. Q HANK. OKAY AND DO WANT TO THINK CITY STAND FOR ALLOWING US TO TAKE A QUICK LOOK AT THE WATER PLANT. IT WAS VERY IMPRESSIVE. THERE IS A WORD THAT HAS A DIFFERENT MEANING. YEAH, BUT IT SAID SUPPORT THE PIPELIN, WHICH, OF COURSE MOST OF THE BANK THEY'RE REFERRING TO THE GAS LINE, BUT IN OUR CASE, IT'S THE WATER LINE BECAUSE WHEN WE WERE OUT THERE, WE SAW ALL THE PIPES THAT GOING INTO THE GROUND. THE OTHER THING THAT I DID OVER THE WEEKEND IS THEY'VE DOWN TO THE SOUTHERN BORDER OF UNION COUNTY AND INDEED SEE THE LARGE CONCRETE PYLON OUT THERE.

[01:25:11]

CONGRATULATIONS TO THE MARYSVILLE MODERATE FOOTBALL TEAM FOR A FANTASTIC SEASON FRIDAY NIGHT DIDN'T END THE WAY THAT THEY HAD HOPED. BUT THOSE YOUNG MEN DO A GREAT JOB OF.

REPRESENTING THEIR FAMILIES, THEIR SCHOOL AND THEIR COMMUNIT. AND IT WAS GREAT. HOW MUCH SUPPORT THEY GOT. AND JUST CONGRATULATIONS ON A GREAT YEAR FOR COACH BRENT JOHNSON AND THE MARRIAGE OF MONARCH FOOTBALL TEAM. UM EVERY YEAR WHEN WE PASSED THE BUDGET, I GET MORE AND MORE ENAMORED WITH OUR. WHEN WE CHANGED OUR FORM OF GOVERNMENT. YOU KNOW, BEFORE SIX YEARS AGO, WHEN WE SWITCHED TO THE COUNCIL MANAGER FORM OF GOVERNMENT, IT WAS THE MAYOR'S BUDGET. AND THEN THE FIRST TIME COUNCIL SAW IT WAS, YOU KNOW THE END OF OCTOBER? BECAUSE A LOT OF TIMES IT WAS PUT TOGETHER WITHOUT A LOT OF CONVERSATION BETWEEN COUNCIL AND THE MAYOR.

NOW. WERE INVOLVED IN THE ENTIRE PROCESS. UM AND I STILL THINK THE STRATEGIC PLAN THAT WE PUT TOGETHER YOU KNOW EVERY TWO YEARS TO MAKE SURE THAT WE'RE PLANNING OUR WORK AND WORKING.

OUR PLAN IS EXTREMELY IMPORTANT. AND YOU KNOW, I THINK IT ALLOWS OUR FINANCE COMMITTEE TO STAY INVOLVED. AND JUST MAKES THINGS RUN MUCH MORE EFFICIENTLY AND THE PROCESS THAT IT'S PROBABLY THE BEST REASON TO GO TO THIS FORM OF GOVERNMENT. AND I JUST THINK ABOUT THAT EVERY YEAR AGAIN. THURSDAY'S THANKSGIVING I GOT MY WHOLE FAMILY COMING IN. WE WILL BE DOING THE TURKEY TROT SINCE I'VE GOT A SIX YEAR OLD AND A FOUR YEAR OLD, ALTHOUGH THE SIX YEAR OLD WILL RUN IT, HE'S RUN A FEW. NOT ONE A FEW, SO YEAH, HE'LL BEAT ME. I'LL TAKE CARE OF THE FOUR YEAR OLD.

HE WALKS A LITTLE SLOWER, BUT AS YOU'RE AT HOME, ENJOYING TURKEY AND YOUR FAMILY. THINK ABOUT ALL OF THE MILITARY PERSONNEL THROUGHOUT THE WORLD WHO ARE DEFENDING OUR COUNTRY THAT AREN'T AT HOME WITH THEIR FAMILIES. WE'VE GOT A VETERAN RIGHT HERE. WE'VE GOT ONE DOWN THERE. THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE. BUT THINK OF THE MILITARY PEOPLE WHILE YOU'RE GIVING THANKS ON THURSDAY. AND ALSO DON'T FORGET OUR OWN LOCAL. PEOPLE YOU KNOW OUR FIRST RESPONDERS. WE'VE GOT FIRE PEAT FIRE DEPARTMENT POLICE DEPARTMENT THAT ARE ON DUTY ON THURSDAY, SO. THANK YOU GUYS VERY MUCH FOR WHAT YOU DO FOR US HERE LOCALLY. THAT'S IT. JR.

DONALD YEAH, THANK YOU. I JUST HAVE A COUPLE OF COMMENTS. YOU KNOW, THE FIRST COMMENT TO GO BACK TO TERRY, TERRY AND I HAVE HAD LONG DISCUSSIONS. AND I AM GRATEFUL THAT THIS COUNCIL HAS ALLOWED ME TO SPEAK TO CITY STAFF THERE'S SOME SOME SOME ZONING ISSUES. WHAT I ASK YOU ALL IS WE ALL TAKE A BIGGER DIVE INTO IT THAN JUST ME? AND I THINK THAT WE ARE SEEING THAT NOT EVERYTHING IN OUR CODE. IS UP TO PAR AND CONDITIONAL USES SHOULD BE LOOKED AT AND SHOULD BE REMOVED. AND THAT'S NOT SOMETHING THAT IS ANTI BUSINESS THAT IT IS WHAT SUCCESSFUL COMMUNITIES DO. AND YOU KNOW, ENSURING PERSONAL PROPERTY RIGHTS IS ALSO MAINTAINING THAT PEOPLE'S PERSONAL PROPERTIES AR. BEING INVESTED IN AND THEY'RE GETTING THE RETURN ON INVESTMENT. AND THAT'S WHAT I'M ASKING ALL OF US TO START DOING. UM THE OTHER THING I WOULD JUST

[01:30:06]

AND I'VE SEEN THE TURKEY RUN, GET LARGER AND LARGER AND LARGE. AND THEN I USED TO SEE JOHN GORE IT THE VERY END, YOU KNOW, WALKING, AND I HAVE. SADLY I WILL HAVE NEVER PARTICIPATED IN IT. UM MAYBE SOME YEAR SOMEDAY I WILL. UM BUT I ALSO WANTED TO ALSO BRING UP BECAUSE SMALL BUSINESS SATURDAY. IS COMING UP. UM I ASK EVERYBODY TO GO TO THE UPTOWN EXPLORER PAGE. IT'S ON INSTAGRAM AND FACEBOOK. THE SMALL BUSINESSES OWNERS WERE DOING A PASSPORT. SO YOU GO IN THERE. YOU BUY AN ITEM. THEY STAMP IT AND YOU CAN WIN PRIZES. WE'VE BEEN ABLE TO DO THAT FOR THE LAST SEVERAL YEARS. UM MAGGIE MULLEN WOULD COME HOME ACTUALLY BECAME THE FIRST NEIGHBORHOOD CHAMPION FOR SMALL BUSINESS SATURDAY, AND, UM, DUE TO THE CHANGES OF HOW SMALL BUSINESS SATURDAY HAS RUN NOW IT MOVES OVER TO KAREN ELON'S WITH TOURISM DIRECTOR. SO BUT PLEASE GO OUT THERE AND SUPPORT YOUR LOCAL BUSINESSES. UM. AND THEN ALSO, I WOULD LIKE TO JUST IN MY IN MY CONVERSATION WITH A LITTLE BIT OF A SPEECH JUST FOR ITS VERY SMALL, I PROMISE, UM, FOR THANKSGIVING, AND ALL IT SAYS, IS. A BELOVED AMERICAN TRADITIO. THANKSGIVING GIVES US THE OPPORTUNITY TO FOCUS ON FAMILY, FRIENDS AND COUNTRY AS 202 176 MILLION AMERICANS CELEBRATE THE DAY WE GIVE THANKS TO THE NATIVE AMERICANS FOR SHOWING US HOW TO SURVIVE. WE MUST ALSO GIVE THANKS TO THE ETERNAL LIGHT OF OUR ANCESTORS FOR CONTINUE TO GUIDE US AND OUR COUNTRY. NO MATTER WHO YOU SPEND THANKSGIVING WITH. AND WHO IS THAT? YOUR TABLE? I WISH YOU ALL LOVE, HAPPINESS AND GOOD SPIRIT. THANK YOU. THANK YOU, DONALD. YEAH. PASS HAPPY THANKSGIVING, ALLEN. A COUPLE OF THINGS THIS YEAR, AS HAS BEEN POINTED OUT BY KYLE HAS BEEN A HUGE CONSTRUCTION YEAR AND A LOT OF GREAT PROGRESS THROUGH TRAFFIC FLOW THROUGH JUST MANY PROJECTS THAT HAVE BEEN DONE, BUT. A COUPLE OF MORE NEAR AND DEAR TO MY WARD IS COLUMBUS AVENUE PROJECT, WHICH LOOKS VERY GOOD DRIVING OUT THROUGH THERE NOW. AND OF COURSE, LONDON AVENUE EVEN MORE NEAR AND DEAR. THE WALKWAYS LOOK GOOD. I KNOW THE NEIGHBORHOOD, THE IMMEDIATE REGION IS REALLY APPRECIATIVE TO MAKING THOSE PROVISIONS FOR HIM. SO THOSE ARE GREAT PROJECTS THAT THAT ARE A LITTLE CLOSER TO HOME. UM, WITH REGARD. TO THE RUN SLASH WALK ON THURSDAY. I KNOW THAT LEAST A COUPLE OF TURKEY'S NO DISRESPECT INTENDED WILL BE INVOLVED. CRAWL BY THE.

AND THEN BEYOND THAT, WE'VE GOT TO GO BUCKS BEAT THE STATE UP NORTH. AND THEN SHORTLY AFTER THAT KICK IN THE GREAT CHRISTMAS SEASON, SO EVERYBODY HAVE A GREAT THANKSGIVING. YOU KNOW, I DON'T HAVE MUCH TO SAY. I JUST WANT TO MENTION. YOU KNOW, THE CITY TODAY ON FACEBOOK POSTED AN UPDATED LIST OF EVENTS AND ACTIVITIES THAT ARE GOING ON DURING THE HOLIDAY SEASON AND THAT THERE'S A LOT GOING ON A LOT MORE THAN. YOU KNOW, I THINK WHAT YOU TYPICALLY MIGHT THINK IT KIND OF SEEMS LIKE A SLOW PERIOD OF TIME. BUT THERE'S A LOT SO YOU STAY UP TO DATE, YOU KNOW, CHECK OUT THE CITY'S WEB PAGE. THE FACEBOOK BECAUSE THERE'S A LOT GOING ON, AND THEY KEEP THAT UP TO DATE PRETTY WELL. AND THEN YOU KNOW, I WAS THINKING ABOUT THAT UPTOWN PUMPKIN DASH AND. THINKING BACK ON ALL THE RACES. YOU KNOW, I'VE RUN IN THE PAST AND YOU KNOW.

SOMETIMES YOU GET PRETTY HOT AND OVERHEATED. RIGHT SO THIS YEAR I'VE GOTTEN SOME OF MY FRIENDS.

WE'VE GOT HOSES AND SPRINKLERS THAT WE'RE GOING TO COOL PEOPLE DOWN WITH AS THEY RUN BY. SO EXPENSIVE. ISN'T IT GOING TO BE LIKE 30 DEGREES AND YOU'RE GOING TO SPRAY THEM WITH? OKAY WE WOULD JUST WANT TO KEEP THEM COOL. IT'S AN IDEA. WE'LL SEE HOW IT WORKS. HMM THAT'S IT, AND
