THANKS CHIEF ON THE MAINTENANCE AND OPERATION SIDE STREETS, IS CONTINUING TO PERFORM STREET SWEEPING. THERE'S BEEN A LOT OF GRAVEL THAT'S BEEN KICKED UP AS A RESULT OF THE WEATHER EVENTS. OUT AT PARKS WERE JUST KIND OF PREPARING FOR THE SPRING ACTIVITIES, INCLUDING PAINTING RESTROOMS, CHIPPING BRANCHES, ETCETERA WATERS, BEGINNING THEIR WORK AGAIN OUT AT SYCAMORE STREET TO PUT IN A WATER LINE TO REPLACE AN OLD CAST IRON LINE. AND THEN OUT OF THE WATER TREATMENT PLANT. CONTRACTOR AT LEAST FOR THE EXTERIOR WORK IS STILL FIGHTING SOME WHITE CONDITIONS SO THERE HASN'T BEEN MUCH SITE WORK, BUT WORK CONTINUES TO MOVE FORWARD ON BOTH THE ADMINISTRATION IN THE PROCESS BUILDING. IN REGARDS TO SOME OF THE CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROJECTS THAT WE HAVE GOING ON. IN ADDITION TO THE WATER TREATMENT PLANT FOR THE PAVEMENT MAINTENANCE PROGRAM , THE PROJECT WAS ADVERTISED TODAY AND WE'RE HOPING TO OPEN UP BIDS BY THE END OF MARCH, THE MARCH 25TH AND THEN CONSTRUCTION WISE, THE WATER TREATMENT PLANT OFFSITE UTILITIES EXTENSION PROJECT, WHICH IS A MOUTHFUL RAYMOND ROAD CONTINUES TO REMAIN CLOSED FOR AT LEAST ANOTHER COUPLE WEEKS OF TO HELP WITH THE INSTALLATION OF THE WATER LINE THAT GOES RIGHT UNDER 33 RIGHT DOWN THE MIDDLE OF RAYMOND ROAD. AT AT PUMP STATION TO EXCAVATION OF THE PUMP STATION CONTINUES AND WILL CONTINUE TO DO SO. PROBABLY AT LEAST FOR ANOTHER 2 TO 3 WEEKS AND THEN OUT OF THE WATER TOWER. CONSTRUCTION CONTINUES IN THE PROJECT REMAINS ON SCHEDULE, AND THAT'S THAT'S ALL I'VE GOT. THAT COMPLETES OUR ADMINISTRATIVE REPORT. THANK YOU FOR LEARNING QUESTIONS. OKAY HANK ALREADY. WE STILL LOOKING AT OCTOBER NOVEMBER COMPLETION AS FAR AS THE TIE IN AND THE WATER PLANT. YES YEP. SO PUMP STATION TO THE WATER TOWER AND WATER TREATMENT PLANTS SHOULD ALL BE WRAPPING UP OCTOBER ISSUES. WHAT WE'RE HOPING SO EARLY EARLY FALL, AND I WAS OVER AT, UM MILBURY CENTRO AND I DID SEE THERE WAS STILL QUITE A BIT OF EQUIPMENT OUT THERE IS THAT PROJECT COMPLETING AS WELL SO THAT THAT PORTION I'LL HAVE TO GET A DATE ON WHEN WE THINK THE PARKING LOT CAN CAN REOPEN. I KNOW THEY RAN INTO SOME ROCK AS WE WERE TUNNELING UNDERNEATH THE CREEK. SO WITH THAT, THAT THAT THAT CAUSED A FEW DELAYS THERE[00:05:02]
AS I'LL GET AN UPDATE AND MAKE SURE THAT WE SEND THAT OUT THROUGH MACKENZIE HOPEFULLY TODAY ER SORRY ABOUT TODAY, BUT TOMORROW OR WEDNESDAY OKAY. THANK YOU VERY MUCH. APPRECIATE IT. HAVE A QUESTION. UM I JUST WANTED TO SAY THAT I'M GLAD TO SEE THE STREET STREETS ARE BEING CLEANED UP AND SWEPT BECAUSE I'VE NOTICED IT. AND THEN I SAW THE STAFF REPORT AND I WAS LIKE , OH, GREAT. THEY'RE LIKE ONE STEP AHEAD OF ME, BUT I WANTED TO ASK, UM, THE NOTICE THE PARK DRIVING BY 33. ARE YOU GUYS JUST CLEANING OUT LIKE HONEYSUCKLE, AND I'M JUST GETTING A LOT OF QUESTIONS. YEAH FOR THE MOST PART, IT'S PRIMARILY BRUSH THAT THEY'RE REMOVING OUT THERE TO TRY TO CLEAN IT UP SOMEWHAT OF WHAT WE DID AT LEGION PARK. I KNOW I'M MEETING JOE, AND THEN WE'RE TAKING TERRY AND MAC ON A SITE VISIT ON THURSDAY, WITH SOME GATORS EVENTUALLY PROBABLY IN THE NEXT MONTH OR SO WE'LL BE ABLE TO ALMOST HAVE AN OPEN HOUSES TYPE THING, OR WILL BE ABLE TO TAKE MULTIPLE OTHER FOLKS ON TOUR AS WELL. BUT I DID READ THE ARTICLE AND YOU WERE TRY HERE. WE'RE GOING TO BE COMMUNICATING WITH SOMEBODY ON TO CREATE LIKE METRO PARK, BUT OBVIOUSLY IT'S NOT GOING TO BE. IT DOESN'T ADD METRO PARK, BUT YES, SO WE'RE IN THE PROCESS OF GETTING IT'S STILL WORKING ON GETTING IT UNDER CONTRACT, BUT TO JUST CREATE LIKE A PRELIMINARY DESIGN, YOU KNOW WHAT ARE SOME FEATURES THAT WE CAN LOOK AT. JUST THAT WE CAN GET AN IDEA OF, UM YOU KNOW, CONSTRUCTION SCHEDULE COST AND SOME THINGS LIKE THAT. SO AT THIS POINT, WE'RE STILL ACTUALLY PROBABLY NEED TO SEND HIM AN EMAIL. I HAVEN'T SEEN A PROPOSAL FROM THEM YET. SO WE'RE HOPING TO DO THAT HERE SHORTLY, BUT IT WAS A CONSULTANT THAT WAS RECOMMENDED FROM METRO PARKS THAT THEY'VE DONE SOME WORK THERE. SO WE FIGURED THAT WAS A GOOD ENOUGH PLACE TO PLACE TO START COOL. AND I HAVE A QUESTION FOR CHIEF ROCKS FOR A SECOND. WHAT IS LIKE WITH THE YOU KNOW THE PARKING UPTOWN? WE'VE HAD SENSORS AND FOR A LITTLE BIT. I DON'T KNOW IF YOU WANTED TO GIVE US A LITTLE UGLY. ANY OF ANY INFORMATION THAT YOU MIGHT HAVE ON IT KICKED UP HER KICKED OFF FOR UPTOWN PARKING ENFORCEMENT EARLY LAST WEEK.BRITAIN PROBABLY ABOUT 60 WARNINGS OR SALE. WE'RE STILL WE'RE STILL A COUPLE OF THE SENSORS THAT ARE GIVING US A LITTLE BIT OF AN ISSUE, SO WE WANT TO MAKE SURE WE HAVE ALL THOSE FUNCTIONING PROPERLY. JOSH SMITH FROM OUR OFFICE HAS BEEN WORKING WITH KYLE TO GET WITH FIRE AND MAKE SURE YOU KNOW THOSE UP AND RUNNING. I THINK WE'RE GETTING CLOSE. PROBABLY LATER THIS WEEK OR FIRST NEXT WEEK. THEY SHOULD ALL BE UP AND GOING. THANK YOU MY BEST, JEREMY . IF YOU DON'T MIND, I HAVE ONE MORE QUESTION SINCE DONALD PART UP, 73. YOU AND I HAVE HAD DISCUSSIONS ALREADY LAST YEAR AND THEN I TALKED TO KYLE THIS WEEK WITH THE COURAGE TO 33 WHICH IS OBVIOUSLY STATE OUT. THERE WILL BE THOSE SOME MAINTENANCE ON IT, BUT ESPECIALLY FROM KOGA, AND IT USED TO BE JUST TO THE WALKING BRIDGE, ESPECIALLY IF YOU GOT USED BOUND, BUT NOW IT CONTINUES ON ALL THE WAY UP TOO LOUD FOR YOU KNOW, YEAH. CITIZENS ARE CONCERNED ABOUT HOW WOULD THE IMPACTS THE TIRES THERE IS CONTINUOUS THUMPING, UM, GOING ON NOW, TERRY. WHAT WHAT SPECIFIC UPDATES. CAN YOU GIVE US ON THE REPAIRS FOR STATE OUT ? 33 DID ISSUE A NEXT YEAR? YES I CAN GIVE SOME UPDATES. I'VE GOT A LITTLE MORE INFORMATION WE HAVE THINK IT'S MONDAY PRECONSTRUCTION MEETING FOR ODA TO REPAY FROM DELAWARE AVENUE ALL THE WAY DOWN TO POST ROAD ISH SOMEWHERE THAT WAY, SO WE'RE GOING TO ANSWER TO THAT PROCESS WHERE I'M SURE ANA. YOU WILL BE RECEIVING CALLS AND SOME THINGS LIKE THAT ABOUT IT, BUT THERE'LL BE SOMETHING WE LET ODA HANDLES . SO THAT SEEMS TO BE BASED ON THAT WITHOUT HEARING THE FINAL SCHEDULE, SOMETHING THAT THEY'LL BE WORKING ON THIS SUMMER OR YOU KNOW THIS THIS CONSTRUCTION SEASON IN REGARDS TO PAVING FROM KROGER TO DELAWARE AVENUE THAT PROJECT AGAIN. OH, THAT'S RUNNING, THAT IS, I BELIEVE IS GOING TO BE A NEXT YEAR PROJECT. AS WHAT THAT WILL DO IS PUT IN TWO INCHES OF ASPHALT OVER THE ENTIRE STRETCH. WHAT WE HAVE REQUESTED FROM OH, DOT IS TO DIG DOWN AND THEY GAVE US A DETAIL, DIG DOWN AND COMPLETELY REPLACE ALL THE SPEED BUMPS THAT THAT YOU GET THAT SEEMED LIKE THERE'S TWO OR 300 OF THEM WHEN I WAS COUNTING THEM, SO THAT WAY, INSTEAD OF JUST PAVING ON HIM AND PAVING OVER HIM, AND THEN THEY SHOW AGAIN IN FIVE YEARS, WE FIGURED ALL RIGHT, LET'S GO AHEAD AND FIX THIS AND FIX AS MUCH AS THE BUDGET WILL ALLOW OVER. DATA HAS STEPPED TO THE POINT THEY'VE GOT THEY'VE GOT SOME CONTINGENCY MONEY WHERE I
[00:10:01]
BELIEVE THE MAJORITY OF THOSE WILL BE COVERED BY THEIR FUNDS, BUT ANYTHING BELOW TWO INCHES.THEY USUALLY ASK FOR THE MUNICIPALITY TO HELP FUND SO THAT WAS SOMETHING THAT WE'VE GOT IN NEXT YEAR'S BUDGET TO BE ABLE TO TAKE CARE OF THAT, SO I WOULD IMAGINE THAT WOULD BE A SPRING PROJECT WHERE THEY DIG DOWN THERE BE SOME MAINTENANCE OF TRAFFIC ITEMS THAT WILL HAVE TO WORK ON OF THEM CLOSING ELAINE OR MAYBE DOING IT AT NIGHT. BUT THAT WILL BE SOMETHING THAT HOPEFULLY THEY'LL BE ABLE TO TAKE CARE OF ALL THOSE, YOU KNOW, MAYBE KNOCK OUT FIVE A DAY OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT, OR MAYBE EVEN MORE AND THEN AND THEN, PROBABLY FOLLOWING A SIMILAR SCHEDULE WILL BE PAVING THE REMAINDER OF 33 FROM KROGER TO DELAWARE AVENUE IN THE SUMMER FALL NEXT YEAR IS AT LEAST THE PLAN. YEAH BECAUSE ABOUT 33 IS PROBABLY, UM , GET REACHING ITS MATURITY TIME 50 YEARS AND THE CONVERSATIONS THAT YOU AND I HAD IS WHERE YOU HAVE THOSE AREAS THAT DO NEED TO BE PHYSICALLY CUT OUT BECAUSE IF YOU JUST ONLY REMOVED TWO INCHES , IT'S LIKE PUTTING A BAND. IT'S ON IT AND WITHIN A SHORT AMOUNT OF TIME YOU COLLECT EAT A MELTED SNOW OR RAIN WATER, AND THEN YOU FREEZE AGAIN. AND YEAH, IT IS. IT IS NOT FORTUNATE EVENT THAT I'M AFRAID THAT IF THEY ARE WILLING TO GO FOR THAT, TWO OR THREE INCHES, BUT EVEN IF WE DO HAVE TO GO THE ADDITIONAL, UM, PROBABLY LOOKING AT THE $400,000. YEAH THAT'S GONNA THAT'S GONNA HOLD FOR THE NEXT TWO GENERATIONS FOR SURE, AND THAT'S THAT'S AT LEAST THE PLAN BECAUSE I THINK THEY PAVED 33 2010 OR 2011, AND YOU CAN SEE THEY'RE ALREADY HAVING TO REPAVE IT AGAIN AND 10 YEARS PRIMARILY TO THOSE BUMPS, SO YOU KNOW ANYTHING WE CAN DO TO SEAL UP THOSE CONCRETE JOINTS WHERE THERE'S A LITTLE BIT OF DISPLACEMENT, I THINK OBVIOUSLY IS ALSO BENEFICIAL TO OH, THAT'S SO WE'LL SEE WHERE THE BID NUMBERS COME IN. PROBABLY THIS TIME NEXT YEAR, I BELIEVE IS WHEN THEY HAVE IT SCHEDULED, FORBIDDING. AND HOPEFULLY AGAIN, OH, DOT SAID WE HAVE X AMOUNT OF DOLLARS TOWARDS ITS SOLDIERS HAVE TO MAKE UP THE DIFFERENCE OR IT COSTS TOO MUCH. THEN MAYBE WE CONSIDER HAGEN THE WORST BUT AT LEAST BASED ON THE PRELIMINARY NUMBERS, WHICH ARE WAY BETTER THAN WHAT I THOUGHT. SIX MONTHS AGO, I THOUGHT WE WERE GOING TO HAVE TO FUND THE WHOLE THING WHICH WAS GETTING IN THERE INTO THE MAYBE. MILLION AND A HALF $2 MILLION. OH, DAD'S GOT SOME MONEY IN THEIR BUDGET THAT THEY'RE ABLE TO SEND OUR WAY. SO I'M HOPING IT'S CLOSER TO THAT FOR $500,000. BUT IT'S REALLY TOUGH TO KNOW EXACTLY WHAT THAT COST IS GOING TO BE BECAUSE THEY GAVE US NUMBERS THAT WERE EITHER PERIOD LIKE $275, A SQUARE YARD ALL THE WAY UP TO 6 75. SO THERE'S A PRETTY BIG RANGE BASED ON NUMBERS THAT THEY'VE GOT WHERE THEY HAD TO DO THIS ON TO 70 OR ANOTHER ROADWAY. SO WE'LL DEFINITELY BE AS FLEXIBLE AS WE CAN WITH THE MAINTENANCE OF TRAFFIC, AND THAT'LL KEEP THE THAT'LL KEEP THE COST DOWN. AND THEN THEY HAVE ONE MORE. IF YOU GO AHEAD, WORRY THIS FINDING, UH COLLINS, WHICH IS IN FRONT OF, UM, THE W. AND OF COURSE, THERE IS NO ALSO THE NEW GARAGE FOR THE ROLE THAT CAN YOU CONTINUE TO TALK ABOUT? POTENTIALLY WHEN YOU LEAVE MARYSVILLE FOR A POTENTIAL DATE TEND TO TURN I KNOW WE'RE LOOKING AT FOUR OR 500,000, MAYBE A SHARED COST WITH ALL THAT. UM I KNOW WE'VE TALKED ABOUT THAT ONE BEFORE. I'VE TALKED TO COUNCILMAN DREAMS ABOUT THAT AS WELL. SO I THINK WHAT WE'RE GOING TO TRY IS MAYBE NOT DO A FULL FLEDGED TURN LANE . BUT GIVE ENOUGH ROOM FOR CARD TO GET BY. OUR GUYS THOUGHT THEY'D BE ABLE TO DO THAT. IN THAT SECTION OF COLLINS IS ACTUALLY ON THE PAVING PROGRAM THIS YEAR. WE CAN GO AHEAD AND GET THE BASE IN THERE AND GET IT PRETTY CLOSE. THEN WHEN THEY COME IN AND PAVE EVERYTHING ELSE WILL BE ABLE TO PAVE RIGHT OVER AGAIN WORRIED ABOUT DOING A FULL 12 FT WIDE OR, YOU KNOW WHETHER SHOULDERS AND ALL THAT STUFF BECAUSE THERE'S A POLE RIGHT IN THE WAY AND WE TRIED TO HOPEFULLY, HOPEFULLY GIVE CARS ENOUGH ROOM TO INCH. FIVE. WE'LL SEE HOW IT WORKS WERE ABLE TO DO IT IN HOUSE. YOU KNOW IF WE HAVE TO WIDEN IT TO A FULL TURN LANE. WE'VE ALREADY DONE 75% OF THE WORK, SO WE WERE GOING TO TRY SOMETHING TO SEE IF IT WORKS TO HOPEFULLY HELP, YOU KNOW, REALLY HELP THOSE MORNING PEAKS, BUT THAT SEEMED TO BE ONE. IT WOULD BE. THE WORST IS WHEN FOLKS ARE GOING TO HAND IT IN GOING TO BOND SOLD. AT THE SAME TIME, SO IT'S ON OUR RADAR. I WOULD IMAGINE OUR GUYS WE'LL GET TO THAT EITHER. LATER THIS ONE OR IN THE SPRING TO PUT PUT THE GRAVEL OR THE BASE DOWN. UM AND THEN AND THEN, WHENEVER THE PAVING PROGRAM COMES THROUGH IN THE SUMMER, THEY'D BE ABLE TO PUT THAT TOP SURFACE KOBACH. WONDERFUL. THANK YOU SO MUCH.

THANK YOU, MR PRESIDENT. UM I DON'T KNOW IF YOU HEARD ME. I SAID I WAS PULLING A DEPTH GROUP THERE WHEN I CORRECTED TYPO, AND ANYWAY, SHE'S TYPICALLY THE ONE THAT CATCHES THOSE THINGS. BUT ANYWAYS, UM, THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS ARE WITH AMERICANS AND ALL THOSE INVOLVED IN THE UKRAINIAN RUSSIAN CONFLICT RIGHT NOW, I WON'T PRETEND TO BE AN EXPERT ON THE SITUATION, BUT MM , JUST PRAYING FOR ALL AMERICANS WHO WERE INVOLVED IN THAT THEY RETURN SAFELY AND STAY. STAY SAFE. MM. THAT'S ALL FOR TONIGHT. MHM OKAY. TWO WEEKS AGO , WE DID. UM YOU REMEMBER SOME OF THE WORK THAT MR CASPERSEN HAS DONE FOR THE CITY OF MARYSVILLE? AND UNFORTUNATELY LAST WEEK ANOTHER. PERSON THAT I HAD LOTS OF ADMIRATION FOR IT BY NAME OF COZY, TOM. YEAH AND IF YOU LOOK IN THE HALLWAY HE WAS MAYOR FROM 1988 TO 1995. THAT'S ABOUT TWO TERMS. AT THAT TIME.IT WASN'T ELECTED MAYOR. IT WAS NOT WHAT WE NOW REFER TO AS A SOFT MAYOR, BUT HE CAME WITH AN AGENDA AND HE DID SO NOT EVERYBODY APPRECIATED IT. BUT HE CAME WITH AN AGENDA. AND THEN, UM, HE DID COME BACK AGAIN SINCE HE COULDN'T GET ENOUGH OF IT. IN 2000 AND FOUR AND AGAIN TO THE UP UNTIL 2000 AND EIGHT. YEAH AND IF I REMEMBERED IT WAS ABOUT THE TIME THAT I MOVED INTO MARYSVILLE AND MANY OF THE THINGS THAT WE ARE NOW REAPING THE BENEFITS FROM WERE ACTUALLY ESTABLISHED DOING THAT PERIOD OF TIME. UM LATE 19 SEVENTIES EARLY 19 EIGHTIES, THE CITY FELT THAT IT DID NOT GET UM, GOOD VALUE FOR THE MONEY FROM THE AMERICAN WATER COMPANY WHO WAS THE OWNER OF THE WATER SERVICES IN MARYSVILLE AND ABOUT 19. UM SEVENTIES EIGHTIES TO CITY DID
[00:25:06]
PURCHASE THAT. SO MAYBE DOING HIS THING. I'M AS NOT HIS TIME. MAYBE DURING HIS TIME AS MAYOR, HE WAS INSTRUMENTAL IN THAT. I DON'T KNOW. I CAN ONLY SECOND GUESS. WE'VE SEEN THE WATER RESERVOIR FOR WHAT SEEMS TO BE AGES. YEAH AND WE'VE BEEN READY FOR THE NEW WATER PLANT FOR ALMOST 15 20 YEARS. NOW, THAT'S THAT'S THAT'S FOUR SIDES. YEAH THAT'S BEING PROACTIVE. THAT'S NOT BEING REACTIVE. THE OTHER THING I DO REMEMBER IS THAT DURING THOSE YEARS, UM THE CITY SINCE WE WERE ONLY ON THE 1% INCOME TAX, UM CITY DID NOT ALLOCATE ANY MONEY AT ALL FOR STREET TAPING. MAYBE THAT'S WHY DID DEVELOP MY PATIENT FOR STREET PAVING, BUT I DO REMEMBER , UM THAT ONE TIME THERE WAS A MASSIVE AMOUNT. I DON'T KNOW WHETHER IT WAS 2,000,004 MILLION IN SHORT TERM NOTES. THAT WAS MADE AVAILABLE EXCLUSIVELY FOR PAVING. AND AGAIN, PEOPLE IN THOSE DAYS THEY HAD TO MAKE DECISIONS MOVING FORWARD, AND THEY HAD TO MAKE DECISIONS FOR THINGS THAT ARE GOING ON. AND IF I LOOK AT TODAY'S AGENDA WE PRETTY MUCH TAKING CARE OF BUSINESS. BUT IN OUR STRATEGIC PLAN, WE'RE LOOKING FORWARD AND AGAIN IF WE LOOK AT REAPING THE BENEFITS ALSO DURING THOSE DAYS THERE WAS AN AGREEMENT MADE BETWEEN THE COUNTY. UM THE, UM, THE COUNTY PCO AND CITY OF MARRIOTTSVILLE THAT WE WOULD BE IN CHARGE OF ALL OF THE BORDER AND SURE. AND IN THE SOUTH EASTERN PORTION OF UNION COUNTY . YEAH AGAIN. IN THE MEANTIME, THOSE AGREEMENTS WERE MADE WE BUILD THE WASTE BORDER PLANT. IT TOOK A LONG WHILE. IT WAS ESPECIALLY 10 15 YEARS AGO, SOMEWHAT CHALLENGING TO MEET THE DEMAND, BUT IT WAS JUST IT. IT'S REALLY WHEN I THINK BACK AT WHAT THOSE PEOPLE THE DECISIONS THAT THEY MADE FOR THE CITY OF MARYSVILLE AND THE BENEFITS THAT WE HAVE TODAY. I REALLY HAVE TO APPLY THEM AND HAVE TO SAY NOT ALL DECISIONS ARE DAY TODAY. MANY OF THE DECISIONS ARE LONG TERM AND SITTING HERE AT THE COUNCIL, EACH OF US HAVE TO KEEP THAT IN MIND WATCHING THE BEST YOU CAN HAVE A SHORT TERM VISION. AND CURRENTLY, THAT'S THAT'S THE DIRECTION THAT, UM AND PERSONALLY ADVOCATING. LET'S MAKE THE BONES OF MARYSVILLE STRONGER. THAT'S WHY I MENTIONED COMMENTS. WE SEE, UH, FORTUNE STREET THAT'S GOING TO BE FOUR MONTHS. FOURTH OF TRAFFIC THAT'S GOING TO GO FROM PIZZA HUT ALL THE WAY UP TO FIVE POINT YEAH. WE ALREADY SEE THE TRAFFIC GOING TODAY, UNFORTUNATELY, WILL HAVE TO LIVE WITH THAT IN ORDER TO FIX THE BRAIDS ON FOURTH STREET , BUT WE HAVE THINGS THAT WE NEED TO TAKE CARE OF. YEAH BUT ON THE OTHER HAND, WE ALSO HAVE TO APPLAUD PEOPLE LIKE, UM, UM, COZY THAT DID HAVE THE POOR SIDE . WHAT MARY SHALL GO INTO LOOK LIKE 10 15 20 YEARS FROM NOW AND HOW TODAY WE ARE REAPING THOSE BENEFITS. SO UM, THE ECONOMIST TIME? BUT IF I LOOK BACK AT WHAT HE DID FOR MAYSVILLE, THEY WOULD HAVE TO SAY THANK YOU. YOUR LIFE OBSERVERS MUST COMMENDABLE.THAT'S MY COMMENTS FOR TODAY. YOU'RE KIDDING JR AND I'LL PIGGYBACK ON ON HANK'S AS WELL TALKING ABOUT MAYOR CRUZI. UM MY BABYSITTER FOR MY TWO CHILDREN WAS RIGHT NEXT DOOR TO HIS TO HIS HOUSE. SO I GOT TO SPEND QUITE A BIT OF AND THE WASTEWATER TREATMENT PLANT. YOU FORGOT ABOUT THAT. I MEAN, THAT WAS PROBABLY HIS CROWNING JEWEL, UH, TO GET THAT DONE, AND HE WAS VERY INSTRUMENTAL AND GETTING THAT DONE AND SET UP FOR YEARS TO COME. UM ONE OF THE NICE THINGS AND THINGS THAT I APPRECIATE MOST ABOUT COUNCIL AND THE WAY OUR FORMER GOVERNMENT WAS SET UP. IS WE'RE NOT PARTISAN. BUT FOR ANY OF YOU THAT KNOW THE POLITICS OF THE COUNTY AND HOW MANY REPUBLICANS VERSUS HOW MANY DEMOCRATS ARE IN OUR CITY AND
[00:30:06]
OUR COUNTY AND TO HAVE MAYOR CRUZI FOR THREE TERMS. 12 YEARS WHO WAS A DEMOCRAT IN A VERY RED REPUBLICAN COUNTY. UM BUT THAT JUST SHOWED THE KIND OF PERSON HE WAS IN THAT HE COULD TALK WITH PEOPLE ON BOTH SIDES OF THE AISLE. UH AND AGAIN, I REALLY LOVE THE FACT THAT WHEN WE RUN, WE DON'T RUN AS OURS OR DS. WE JUST RUN FOR AWARD OR FOR AH, AT LARGE, BUT TOM WAS VERY INSTRUMENTAL IN, UH, HELPING ME GET STARTED. IN FACT, HE WAS MAYOR WHEN I FIRST TRIED TO GET APPOINTED TO COUNSEL AND DID NOT SO HAD A LOT OF CONVERSATIONS WITH HIM ABOUT THAT. SO ALSO WANTED TO CONGRATULATE MACKENZIE AND WELCOME YOU TO YOUR FIRST DAY MAKES IT A LONG DAY WHEN YOU GOT COUNCIL AND START OFF WITH MEETINGS IN THE MORNING, SO WELCOME, AND WE REALLY LOOK FORWARD TO WORKING WITH YOU. DONALD. I JUST WANTED TO I JUST WANTED TO PIGGYBACK ON EVERYBODY ELSE FOR SOMEONE TO WELCOME MACKENZIE TO REVERSE MEETING. UM YOU KNOW, I LOOK FORWARD TO WORKING WITH YOU. IT PROBABLY IS, BECKY HOPEFULLY IS TOLD YOU I'M GOING TO BE WORKING CLOSE WITH YOU ALL THE TIME. SO WE'RE GOING TO BECOME GOOD FRIENDS. OKAY I'M LOOKING FORWARD TO IT, UM TO GO BACK TO, UM, YOU KNOW, MAYOR, COOT CRUZI AND WHAT HE DID FOR THE CITY. YOU KNOW AS A VERY YOUNG RESIDENT AT THAT TIME THERE WAS, YOU KNOW, I PAID ATTENTION, BUT NOT OBVIOUSLY IN DEPTH LIKE YOU GUYS HAVE HAD HAD , BUT I DID MEET WITH HIM WHEN I RAN FOR CITY COUNCIL, AND I REALLY HAD SOME GOOD CONVERSATIONS WITH HIM. AND UM, YOU KNOW WHEN I FIRST MY FIRST MEETING AND MY SPEECH THAT I WROTE. I STATED THAT YOU KNOW, GOVERNMENT IS SMALL INCREMENTS OF CHANGE EVERY DAY TO MAKE THE WORLD A BETTER PLACE, AND I TRULY BELIEVE THAT AND YOU KNOW ALL OF US HERE. YOU KNOW? YES, DO WE. YOU KNOW, WE YOU KNOW, MARRIES WAS DIFFERENT THAN COMPASS. COLUMBUS IS DIFFERENT THAN THE STATE OF OHIO STATE OF OHIO IS DIFFERENT THAN WASHINGTON. AND SOMETIMES WE THINK, YOU KNOW WE'RE NOT DOING ENOUGH OR NOT MAKING ENOUGH OF A CHANGE. BUT BEING HERE EVERY DAY WE ARE MAKING SMALL INCREMENTS OF CHANGE, AND IT'S NOT ALWAYS NOTICED. BUT OVER TIME PEOPLE WHO PAY ATTENTION TO HOW GOVERNMENT WORKS. WE'LL LOOK BACK AND BE GRATEFUL THAT PEOPLE THAT HAVE SERVED IN THE CITY OF MARYSVILLE JUST LIKE EVENTUALLY, WHEN MY TIME IS END. AND YOU KNOW, I LEAVE THIS EARTH. HOPEFULLY THE PEOPLE WILL SAY THE SAME ABOUT MICE. TIME IN OFFICE, UM, CHANGING GEARS A LITTLE BIT. I JUST WANTED TO SAY THAT I DID SEE THAT. UM MY RESOLUTION WAS NOT ABLE TO GET ON THE AGENDA FOR PLANNING COMMISSION. BUT I YOU DO. STAFF DOES HAVE 60 DAYS, SO I'M WATCHING THE CLOCK. SO THANK YOU. THAT'S ALL. THANK YOU, MR FRAMES. JUSTIN APPRECIATION TO MR REEMS FOR GIVING US SOME SILENCE. AND AN AWARENESS THAT WE DO NOT SERVE IN A VACUUM THAT MARYSVILLE IS THE CENTER OF OUR UNIVERSE. BUT NOT THAT WE DON'T HAVE AN AWARENESS OF SITUATIONS BIGGER THAN OURS. SO THANKS FOR DOING THAT, MR RINGS. UM BEFORE GOOD I CHANNEL IN I'M GONNA ASK BECKY. IF SHE HAS ANYTHING TO ADD HERE TONIGHT AT HER LAST MEETING. OTHER THAN I'M LOOKING FORWARD TO CONTINUING TO WORK WITH MACKENZIE AND I JUST HAVE TRULY ENJOYED WORKING WITH EACH OF YOU ON COUNCIL OVER THE LAST SEVERAL YEARS.

AND WELCOME, MACKENZIE . IT'S GOING TO BE A GOOD RIGHT AHEAD. UM I APPRECIATE THE COMMENTS THAT BOTH JR AND HANK. REFERRED TO SENIOR CRUZI. EXCUSE ME. I SERVED ON PLANNING COMMISSION OF NEW YORK CRUZI AND SEVERAL OTHER MAYORS FOR THAT MATTER, BUT UH, HE WAS. HE WAS TRULY A GENTLEMAN. HE WAS PASSIONATE. ABOUT THE COMMUNITY FOR ANYBODY THAT WOULD SERVE IN[00:35:02]
THAT CAPACITY AS MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL AS HE DID OVER THOSE YEARS, YOU HAVE TO HAVE A LARGE AMOUNT OF PASSION AND. IN SERIOUSNESS ABOUT THE COMMUNITY , AND YOU DESCRIBE SOME OF THE THINGS THAT IT DEMONSTRATED THAT SO THANKS FOR THIS COMMENT, AND IT WAS DESERVING IN HIS MEMORIAL. MM. MATTER OF HER MOUNTAIN. UHH GOT TO MAKE A COUPLE OF REMARKS ON THAT WAS GREAT SKIING YESTERDAY, AND I'LL TELL YOU THIS SPARKLING TREES WITH THAT ICE AND THE SUN TELL YOU IT WAS A MAGICAL ENVIRONMENT TO BE IN AND FOR ALL OF YOU SKIING ENTHUSIASTS, AND I KNOW THAT ALL OF YOU ARE NEXT WEEK IS PALMS POND SKIING.

SO THOSE ARE MY REMARKS AND HAVE A GOOD WEEK. OKAY. THANK YOU, ALAN. UM, YOU KNOW, THE ONLY THING I WOULD ADD IS, YOU KNOW, WE DID HAVE, UH, AN ORDINANCE THAT WE SENT TO PLANNING COMMISSION AND IT WAS DISAPPOINTING TO SEE THAT THE ADMINISTRATION HELD IT UP. YOU KNOW, KNOWING THAT YOU KNOW, THERE IS A 68 TIME PERIOD. SO YOU KNOW, IT'S DISAPPOINTING, I THINK. HOPEFULLY IT DOESN'T CREATE US ANY PROBLEMS. BUT. YOU KNOW, AND I HOPE THAT IT DOESN'T REQUIRE EXTRA MEETINGS ON THE PART OF PLANNING COMMISSIONER TO WORK THROUGH THAT NOW. THAT'S ALL I HAVE. I WOULD ENTERTAIN A MOTION TO ADJOURN. SOME MOVED IN FAVOR. PLEASE RAISE YOUR HANDS.MHM
