AND THEN FINALLY, CITY STAFF HAS A MEETING TOMORROW WITH OH DOT REGARDING THE TIMING OF ANY FUTURE MAINTENANCE ON THE 33 BRIDGE OVER DELAWARE AVE. IN US, 36, SO THAT'S A BRIDGE THAT WE'VE HAD HAD SOME ISSUES ABOUT A MONTH AGO ON SO JUST TRYING TO SEE WHERE THAT IS ON THEIR ON THEIR SCHEDULE, THAT'S ALL I'VE GOT SO ALTERNATE OVER TO KYLE FOR SOME CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROJECT UPDATES. THANKS JEREMY. SO THE GOOD NEWS IS THE CONSTRUCTION CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROJECTS ARE STARTING TO DWINDLE DOWN. ONLY GOT THREE. UPDATES FOR YOU. THE FIRST IS THE STATE ROUTE 31 CREEK FEET ROUND ABOUT SOME OF OUR OUTSTANDING ITEMS, INCLUDING THE PAVERS, LIGHTING AND STREET SIGNAGE WORK. WE'RE HOPING TO WRAP ALL THAT UP HERE IN THIS WEEK AND OPEN UP THE ROUNDABOUT BY THE WEEKEND. ELMWOOD AVENUE ROAD RECONSTRUCTION PROJECT, PAVING WAS COMPLETED LAST WEEK, AND OUTSTANDING ITEMS INCLUDED STRIPING, STREET TREES AND

[00:20:05]

BY THE END OF THE WEEK. WE'LL OPEN THAT UP BY THE WEEKEND AS WELL, UM, THIS NEXT PROJECT IS NOT A CITY LAND PROJECT DEVELOPER LOVE PROJECT PROFESSIONAL PARKWAY ROAD EXTENSION PROJECT. I KNOW EVERYONE'S KIND OF INCHING THE OPEN THAT UP. THE DEVELOPER HAS A COUPLE OUTSTANDING ITEMS WITH SOME CONCRETE WORK AND STRAIGHT TRADE WORK, SO WE WANT TO HOLD OFF, OPENING THAT UP UNTIL ALL OF THEIR WORK IS COMPLETELY DONE . UM AND THEN I GUESS BEFORE I OPENED IT UP FOR QUESTIONS, UM, WHAT THEY CAN CONSTRUCTION SEASON KIND OF WRAPPING UP? I ASKED TERRY, IF I CAN TAKE KIND OF A BRIEF MOMENT JUST TO HIGHLIGHT SOME OF THE CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROJECTS THAT WE WERE ABLE TO CONSTRUCT THIS YEAR BECAUSE IF YOU LOOK AT THE LIST IS VERY EXTENSIVE, UM AND KEEP IN MIND, THESE PROJECTS CANNOT HAVE BEEN DONE WITHOUT THE SUPPORT AND DIRECTION FROM CITY COUNCIL. UM EVERY PROJECT THAT THAT GETS BUILT GOES THROUGH PUBLIC SAFETY, PUBLIC SERVICE COMMITTEE PARTS OF RECOGNITION. OR A WORK SESSION COUNCIL AS A WHOLE. SO UM, DOWN IN JEROME TOWNSHIP, WE WERE ABLE TO OPEN UP THE NEW PUMP STATION TO PROJECT AND ALSO THE WATER TOWER DOWN THERE. UM, SPEAKING OF PUMP STATIONS, WE STARTED THE WATKINS ROAD PUMP STATION PROJECT, HOPING TO WRAP THAT PROJECT UP IN THE SPRING OF 24. AND THEN WE WERE ABLE TO IMPROVE OR CULVERT AND BRIDGE SYSTEM IN TOWN WITH THE EAST FOREST STREET BRIDGE REPLACEMENT AND THEN NEXT DOOR WITH THE TOWN RUN CULVERT REPLACEMENT IN CITY HALL PARKING LOT PROJECT IN CAIRO. IF YOU COULD TALK ABOUT THE EAST, PERSISTENT ON THIS, CLARIFY SOME OF THE REPAIRS THAT HAVE TAKEN PLACE AND THERE'S BEEN SOME QUESTIONS ABOUT THE REPAIR WORK ON THESE FOREST STREETS OVER THE PAST MONTH OR SO, SO THAT WORK IS BEING DONE BY COLUMBIA GAS.

UH THEY WERE NOT. THEY TOLD US THEY WERE COMPLETELY OUT OF OUR LIMITS WHEN THEY DID THEIR UTILITY AND RELOCATION WORK AND CAME BACK IN TO CONNECT THEIR UTILITIES AND REALIZED THEY WERE JUST INSIDE OUR LIMITS, SO THEY HAD TO GO BACK OUT. DO THAT RE CONNECTION, DO SOME PATCHWORK.

THEY WILL BE REPAVING THAT WHOLE SECTION IN RE STRIPING ON THEIR DIME, SO THERE'S NO COST TO THE CITY FOR ANY OF THAT WORK, SO JUST THANKS FOR GIVING ME THE OPPORTUNITY TO CLARIFY THAT. UM THE PART OF SOME TRAIL NETWORKS WERE IMPROVED WITH THE VINE STREET POCKET PRODUCT HERE IN THE UPTOWN AND THEN IF YOU HAVEN'T HAD A CHANCE TO GO OUT AND CHECK OUT THE RESERVOIR CONNECTOR BRIDGE, GET OUT THERE AND TAKE A LOOK AT IT AND TURNED OUT. AWESOME UM, AND THEN LAST THE ROAD ROADWAYS RECEIVED A DECENT AMOUNT OF IMPROVEMENTS. THIS YEAR, WE HAD OUR PAVING MAINTENANCE PROGRAM THAT WENT OFF SMOOTH. ELMWOOD AVENUE ROADWAY RECONSTRUCTION IS GOING TO BE A GREAT PROJECT. 31 CREAKY AROUND ABOUT A GREAT PROJECT. AND THEN AS I MENTIONED BEFORE THE DEVELOPER DRIVEN PROFESSIONAL PARKWAY EXTENSION, SO, UM I GUESS WITH THIS BEING THE LAST MEETING BEFORE THANKSGIVING, JUST WANTED TO SAY THINGS AND SHOW OUR APPRECIATION FOR COUNSEL FROM YOUR SUPPORT, UM CITY STAFF, AND THEN ESPECIALLY OUR INSPECTORS. UM NOT TOO MANY PEOPLE REALIZE WE ONLY HAVE THREE INSPECTORS TO INSPECT KEEP TRACK OF ALL THESE PROBLEMS GOING ON IN TOWN, SO I JUST WANT TO SEND MY APPRECIATION OUT TO THEM. I KNOW THAT WAS A LOT, BUT WE HAD A LOT HAD A LOT GOING ON THIS YEAR. KYLE DO YOU MIND LAYING THE GROUNDWORK FOR THE THOROUGHFARE PLAN PRESENTATION, THEN? YES, I'LL JUST STEP UP AND GO THROUGH IT PERFECT. THANKS FOR GIVING US THE OPPORTUNITY. THEY KIND OF GO THROUGH THIS THOROUGHFARE PLAN UP UPDATE PRESENTATION. UM LAST WEEK WE BROUGHT IT TO PLANNING COMMISSION AND THEN A SIMILAR PRESENTATION TO THEM JUST BECAUSE WITH WITH ALL THE DEVELOPMENTS THAT GO THROUGH PLANNING COMMISSION, IT'S GOOD FOR THEM TO UNDERSTAND WHAT THE THOROUGHFARE PLAN IS, AND WHEN IT LOOKS LIKE UM, OUR LAST THOROUGHFARE PLAN UPDATE WAS IN 2011. AND TYPICALLY WITH MASTER PLANS LIKE THIS. YOU TRY TO UPDATE EVERY 8 TO 10 YEARS. SO UM, WE EMBARKED KIND OF ON THIS TASK TOWARDS THE END OF 2019. BEGINNING IN 2020, WE PROBABLY COULD HAVE COMPLETED IT SOMETIME IN 2022. HOWEVER YOU'LL SEE IN THE PRESENTATION. WE FOUND OUT SOME POTENTIAL DEVELOPMENTS, UM, PARTICULARLY ON THE EAST SIDE OF THE MARYSVILLE THAT WE WANTED TO INCORPORATE THAT DEVELOPMENT IN THIS THING IN THIS PLAN JUST BECAUSE WE DIDN'T WANT TO MISS OUT ON IT. UM LET'S SEE TONIGHT. WE'RE NOT ASKING FOR ADOPTION OF THE PLAN. I BELIEVE MACKENZIE

[00:25:01]

[00:30:03]

[00:35:06]

THERE'S GOING TO BE CONSTRUCTED CONGESTION ISSUES UP THERE. WE HAVE COMPLETED A STUDY THAT SHOWS WHAT THAT RUN NETWORK NEEDS TO LOOK LIKE AS DEVELOPMENT COMES, SO THAT'S COMPLETE. WE'VE ADDRESSED THAT. WE STARTED THE COLEMANS CROSSING CORRIDOR STUDY. WE'RE PROBABLY ABOUT 50 60% COMPLETE WITH THAT, AND IT DOES SHOW THAT SIGNIFICANT IMPROVEMENTS WILL BE NEEDED. IN THE NEXT 10 TO 20 YEARS TO ACCOMMODATE TRAFFIC THERE AND THEN THE FIVE POINTS IN THEIR SECTION STUDY WERE IN DESIGN WITH THAT IS IN OUR C I P FOR 2026 CONSTRUCTION. THE OTHER TWO AREAS THAT WERE HIGHLIGHTS FROM THE PUBLIC OR INPUT FROM THE PUBLIC. DELAWARE. I HAVE AN EAST HISTORY IF YOU LOOK AT THE CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PLAN IN THE FIVE YEAR BUDGET WE DO HAVE STUDIES TO LOOK INTO THOSE AREAS TO SEE HOW THOSE ROADS NEED TO NEED TO KIND OF FUNCTION MOVING FORWARD, SO WE'RE MOVING FORWARD TRYING TO ADDRESS ALL THESE ISSUES LIKE ERIC SAID BYE. BYE BYE. BUT IT DOES TAKE TIME, SO I THINK THAT'S ALL WE HAVE AT THIS TIME. UM I GUESS PRESIDENT BURBEY, IF YOU THINK WE HAVE SOME TIME FOR A COUPLE OF QUESTIONS WERE MORE THAN HAPPY TO ANSWER THOSE IF YOU WANT TO WAIT AND HAVE COUNCIL MEMBERS EMAIL THOSE TO US. WE CAN DO THAT AS WELL. WELL, THE DOCUMENT I STUDIED IT LAST NIGHT WAS ABOUT 127 PAGES, AND IT HAS A REALLY GO INTO THE WEEDS WHEN YOU DO THAT, BUT AT THIS POINT, IS THERE. ARE THERE ANY QUESTIONS FROM COUNCIL BASED ON WHAT IS YEAH, IT'S REALLY SOMETHING THAT IN ORDER TO GET A FULL GASP OF BECAUSE IN IN THERE AND THE ONE PART THAT I DO LIKE ABOUT THE REPORT IS THAT IT HAS A LOT OF SLIDES SO YOU CAN KIND OF VISUALLY PROBLEM WHERE WE ARE NOW UNTIL 10 YEARS FROM NOW AND THEN, 20 YEARS FROM NOW, BUT THE END RESULT WOULD BE SO IT DEFINITELY IS A VERY THOROUGH DOCUMENT. BUT BUT AS I SAID, IT ALSO MAKES US GO INTO THE WEEDS AND THEN AND OBVIOUSLY IT WOULD RAISE A NUMBER OF QUESTIONS. THE ONE IN PARTICULAR THAT I SAW IS MESEBERG EAST, HAVING A PARALLEL ROUTE WITH 33. BUT THEN ALL OF A SUDDEN, THEN YOU HAVE TO MAKE A DECISION. WE HAVE A NEW PARTY

[00:40:01]

WHAT NETWORKS NEED TO GET BUILT TO CONNECT CERTAIN POINTS. THAT CONNECTION GOES. WE'LL SEE HOW DEVELOPMENT YOU KNOW TERRORISM AND WHERE THOSE ROADS GO. YEAH SO THEN THE ONLY STATEMENT THE ONLY QUESTION I REALLY HAD WAS, I ALSO READ IT. I THINK IT WAS SENT OUT. WHAT ON FRIDAY? MAYBE BUT MM HMM. MM HMM. SO I THINK I WENT THROUGH IT ON SATURDAY AND SUNDAY EVENING. AND BUT WE'LL STILL THE OTHER QUESTION I HAVE IS LIKE, FOR INSTANCE, UM, READING IT, LIKE DUNHAM STREET, DENHAM STREET IN TOWN. YOU KNOW, THERE IS A LARGE AMOUNT OF TRAFFIC THAT USES DUNHAM STRAIGHT NOW, AND SO WHEN I LOOK AT DUNHAM STREET, AND I SEE ALL THIS TRAFFIC THAT NOW YOU KNOW PULLING INTO DUNHAM STREET COMING SAVIOR COMING FROM DAIRY QUEEN ON A DUNHAM. IT'S A VERY SHARP YOU KNOW, IT'S VERY SHARP ENTRY AND INTO THE STREET. THEN YOU MAKE THAT SHARP CURVE, THEN YOU THEN IT'S MORE OR LESS A ROLLING STOP ON THE SIX AND THEN YOU KNOW YOU GO ON, AND THEN MOST PEOPLE GO UP CHESTNUT AND GO UP TO ADINA POINT IS WHAT THEY MOST PEOPLE DO. BUT WHEN I SEE LIKE DEVELOPMENT HAPPENING, AND THEN I SEE DUNHAM STREET, YOU KNOW, I JUST THINK YOU KNOW? YOU KNOW, HAVING THAT STREET OBVIOUSLY. HAVING THAT INTERSECTION CLEANED UP A LITTLE BIT, SO IT'S NOT SO SHARP PUTTING CURBS AND TAKING OUT THAT SHARP CURVE SO THAT IT'S NOT SO YOU KNOW, SHARP AND JUST MOVING SO LIKE THAT, SORT OF LIKE WHEN I LOOK AT THESE THINGS. THESE PLANS. YOU KNOW, I'M GLAD THAT WE'RE DOING THEM. IT'S JUST YOU KNOW, IT'S MAKING DEVELOPERS FIXING THESE ISSUES LIKE YOU KNOW, AS WE'RE DEVELOPING, YOU KNOW THESE ISSUES OR AND ALSO CREATING A TAX BASE THAT ALSO CAN HELP WITH THE CITY TO FUND THESE ISSUES, TOO. SO THAT THAT'S WHERE I HAVE TROUBLE WITH THESE PLANS IS THAT THE MONEY AND ENSURING THAT WE'RE WRITING POLICY TO ENSURE THAT THESE ISSUES ARE BEING FIXED. YOU KNOW WHICH WE DO? DO NOT SAYING WE DON'T DO, BUT I JUST DON'T KNOW HOW TO GET LIKE THAT'S JUST AN EXAMPLE. LIKE THE STREETS. MORE IMMEDIATE THINGS THAT WILL HAPPEN WITH DUNHAM. YOU WILL WATCH THE IMPACT IS WHEN PROFESSIONAL PARKWAYS OPENED UP THAT WILL HAVE A HUGE IMPACT ON THE USAGE OF GHANEM.

NOW WE'LL STILL HAVE TO WATCH IT AND SEE, YOU KNOW WHAT'S STILL UTILIZES DUNHAM. BUT THAT PROFESSIONAL PARKWAY, EVERYBODY THAT YOU SAID WAS GOING UP CHESTNUT AND GOING AFTER DEAN APPOINT THERE'LL BE ON PROFESSIONAL PART GOES DOWN 40% SO THAT SHOULD BE OPENED UP BY THANKSGIVING SO WE CAN WATCH OUT PRETTY CLOSELY. OKAY? ALRIGHT ANYBODY ELSE? OKAY THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR COMING INTO THE PRESENTATION AND I'M SURE KALE WILL KEEP US INFORMED KYLE, BUT WOULD YOU LIKE THE NEXT STEPS TO BE YEAH, I GUESS OVER THE NEXT 23 WEEKS. IF YOU GUYS WANTED TO TAKE SOME TIME AND KIND OF REVIEW THE PLAN AND GET WITH MYSELF FOR MACKENZIE WITH ANY QUESTIONS YOU MAY HAVE. I'M HAPPY TO SIT DOWN AND MEET WITH YOU GUYS INDIVIDUALLY TO KIND OF GO OVER AND YOUR CONCERNS OR QUESTIONS AND THEN I THINK I'LL PROBABLY TALK TO TERRY JUST TO SEE WHEN WE WANT TO BRING IT BACK FOR ADOPTION IF WE WANT TO BRING IT BACK IN DECEMBER. OR WHEN WE WANT TO BRING THAT BACK FOR ADOPTION, BECAUSE, UNFORTUNATELY, WE DON'T DO A WORK SESSION IN DECEMBER, SO THAT WOULD EVEN DO COME BACK AT THE WORK SESSION IN JANUARY, IF YOU'D LIKE FOR US TO AH, ALRIGHT . OKAY THERE'S NOT ONE IN JANUARY HAPPENING, OKAY? WE COULD DO IT AT A REGULAR MEETING. JUST OKAY. DISCUSSION POINT. BUT LET'S TAKE A LOOK AT IT AND THEN WE'LL GET IT SCHEDULED IN ACCORDINGLY, SO IF IT'S OKAY WITH COUNCIL SINCE THIS ONE IS THE FIRST MEETING IN NOVEMBER, PUBLIC COMFORTABLE ENOUGH TO BRING THIS BACK A MONTH FROM NOW AT THE REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING WOULD THAT BE? IS THAT SOMETHING THAT DOESN'T TELL A KEEP EVERYBODY YOUR MONTHS, SO THE SECOND COUNCIL MEETING IN DECEMBER IS PROBABLY IS THAT DECEMBER 18TH. MAYBE 18. THAT WOULD BE THE 18TH LIKE US TO BRING IT BACK THAT DATE FOR ADOPTION. UM I WOULD LIKE TO, BUT AGAIN. YEAH I'LL BE COMFORTABLE WITH JANA. MHM.

WE'LL HAVE TO CHECK. I DON'T KNOW IF WE NEED THREE RATINGS. I THINK WE CAN DO IT IN ONE READING AS ONE. OKAY SO OKAY, SO IF WE THEN PLANNED ON, UM, YOUR YOUR AVAILABLE ABSOLUTELY. YOU MAKE APPOINTMENTS WITH MACKENZIE . AND THEN THAT WAY. UM I KNOW IT'S A PRETTY BIG DOCUMENT. YOU

[00:45:09]

[REPORT OF ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT]

ABSOLUTELY. UM SO TONIGHT I'M JUST GONNA GIVE YOU AN UPDATE ON A FEW ITEMS, ONE THE SPEAKER SERIES AND STEP BACK, AND WE CREATE THIS SERIES THIS THIS YEAR TO REALLY CAN YOU CREATE DIALOGUE OR TRYING TO BEING DIALOGUE ABOUT WHAT GROWTH IS WHAT PROSPERITY IS WHAT ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT IS AND TRY TO DO SOME REALLY BASIC SESSIONS AT THE AVALON THEATER FREE OPEN TO THE PUBLIC, AND THAT WAS REALLY THE GOAL JUST TO HAVE DIALOGUE. A LOT OF THE DISCUSSIONS WE KNOW HAPPENS ON SOCIAL MEDIA AT 2 A.M. THREE AM SEVEN PM ALL THOSE, BUT THERE'S NO INTERNET.

THERE'S INTERACTION, BUT NOT ANY REALLY DIRECT INTERACTION. THIS CREATES A AN AREA WHERE YOU CAN ACTUALLY COME AND TALK ABOUT GROWTH. SO SESSIONS ALL INVOLVED SPEAKERS, BUT WE ALWAYS HAVE QUESTIONS AT THE END, SO ANYBODY THERE COULD ASK A QUESTION ABOUT GROWTH AND DEVELOPMENT. YOU CAN

[00:50:04]

WE HAD A NUMBER OF SPEAKERS, BUT REALLY. THE FIRST WAS UNDERSTANDING THE GROWTH AND PROSPERITY OF THE COMMUNITY. THE NEXT WAS THE STILLWATER FARMS BECAUSE THAT WAS A HEATED DISCUSSION. JUST AN OVERVIEW OF THE DEVELOPMENT. THE ECONOMIC IMPACT OF THAT DEVELOPMENT.

THERE ARE IMPACTS ECONOMIC IMPACTS OF RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT POSITIVE TO THE COMMUNITY. SO THAT WAS SOME OF THE DISCUSSION POINTS WE HAD. WHAT IS HOUSING, ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT? HOW THEY TALKED TOGETHER? HOW'S THE LOCAL ECONOMY WORKS AND WHY ATTRACTING AND RETAINING INDUSTRY MATTERS WITH A GREAT SESSION? WE ALSO HAD ONE ON WHY ARE WE? WHY ARE WE ATTRACTIVE TO GROWTH? WHY ARE PEOPLE COMING HERE TO LOCATE HERE AND SOME DIALOGUE THERE? WE HAD A SCHOOL PANEL DISCUSSION AS WELL. AND THEN WE HAD IMPORTANCE OF GROWTH TO LOCAL BUSINESSES AND A PANEL DISCUSSION TALKING ABOUT A RETAIL OR SERVICE BUSINESSES AND WHY HOUSING IMPORTANT TO THEM WORKFORCE CHALLENGES AS WE ALL KNOW, YOU HEAR ME SAY THIS WAY TOO MANY TIMES TO 8000 JOBS AVAILABLE IN THE 20 MILE RADIUS OF MARYSVILLE THAT'S HARD TO FILL POSITIONS, IMPORTANCE OF HOUSING AND ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT. WE HAD LED HIM AHOLIC, WHO IS THE DIRECTOR OF DEVELOPMENT, THE STATE OF OHIO AND ALSO KENNY MCDONALD FROM ONE COLUMBUS, WHO WE ALL KNOW TO TALK ABOUT. HOUSING AND HOW WE'RE ATTACKING THE HOUSING CRISIS AROUND IN COLUMBUS RELATED TO INTEL, AND ALL THE DEVELOPMENT GROWTH IS HAPPENING. AND THEN LAST WE HAD JAMIE GREEN , AND HE TALKED ABOUT HIS WORK IN LICKING COUNTY, BRINGING TOGETHER 15 JURISDICTIONS TO HAVE OPEN DIALOGUE AND DISCUSSION ON HOW WE'RE GOING TO SUPPORT FUTURE ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT IN THE WESTERN PART OF LICKING COUNTY, SO THOSE WERE THE 10 SESSIONS, AND WE HAD HIM LIVE STREAM AND THEN WE ALSO HAVE THEM ALL ON YOUTUBE. YOU CAN GO TO OUR WEBSITE AND VIEW ALL THESE BUT A LOT OF TIME EFFORT. LUKE AND SEVEN DID A GREAT JOB JUST SHOWED UP AND ACTUALLY TALKED DURING THESE AT THE BEGINNING, BUT THEY DID A LOT OF THE WORK BEHIND THE SCENES. BUT AGAIN, THIS WAS A SERIES THAT WE'D LIKE TO DO. NEXT YEAR, MAYBE FOUR INSTALLMENTS AND TRY TO GET MORE PEOPLE. THEY'RE TRYING TO TALK ABOUT GROWTH AND DEVELOPMENT.

WHAT IT MEANS TO THE COMMUNITY HOW WE MADE A DIFFERENCE. I HOPE SO. BUT WE WANT TO CONTINUE.

DIALOGUE, AND I KNOW TERRY, YOU'VE BEEN INVOLVED IN A LOT OF THIS FROM DAY ONE. NO IT'S JUST GOOD INFORMATION AND GOOD OPPORTUNITY FOR THE PUBLIC TO BE ABLE TO JUST GO AND LISTEN AND ASK QUESTIONS AND THINGS LIKE THAT, SO I WOULD ENCOURAGE PEOPLE AS WE GO INTO 2024 TO USE THIS AS AN OPPORTUNITY TO NOT ONLY EDUCATE, BUT QUESTION ASKED QUESTIONS ABOUT SOME OF THE THINGS WE'RE SPEAKING TO. YEAH THE CHAMBER HAS EVENTS, BUT IT'S ONLY IT'S ONLY FOR BUSINESS BUSINESSES IN THE COMMUNITY AND MEMBERS OF THE CHAMBER. THIS IS MORE OPEN TO THE PUBLIC. LET'S SIT AROUND THE TABLE AND TALK ABOUT HOW WE WANT TO GROW TOGETHER AND THAT THOSE ARE KIND OF THINGS, AND WE'LL WORK ON THIS NEXT YEAR IF YOU HAVE THE IDEAS AND THOUGHTS ON SESSIONS NEXT YEAR. PLEASE REACH OUT AND LET US KNOW WHAT MORE THAN HAPPY TO LOOK INTO THAT AND HAVE THAT SESSION NEXT YEAR AND THE NEXT SLIDE. NEXT UM I'M SORRY YOU HAD A QUESTION ABOUT IT COULD GO BACK TO JUST A SECOND. UM SO I WAS ABLE TO OBTAIN A UNION COUNTY MAP OVER THE ENGINEER'S OFFICE. 17 WAS THE LAST TIME THEY DID THE LAST ONE. BUT IT'S STILL SO I TOOK A MEASURING MEASURED. 10 MILES SOUTH 10 MILES NORTH AND THEN IN A BIG CIRCLE IN THE BIG CIRCLE, WE WERE PRETTY MUCH GO AS SOUTHEAST ALMOST THROUGH DUBLIN. YEAH AND THEN OF COURSE, IT DOESN'T COMPASS, ALL OF JEROME, AND THEN IT ALSO PICKS UP A PORTION OF, UM PLAIN CITY SO AND OBVIOUSLY TO THE NORTH TO THE POINT THAT YOU'RE MAKING IS THAT THE WAR BETWEEN TWO AND 400 ENGINEER JOBS. THAT I ENDED 1000, WHICH I CAN ONLY IMAGINE THE AREA BUT WHAT? WHAT WOULD WHAT WOULD IT TAKE FOR US TO KNOW WHAT KIND OF JOBS AND IF THOSE JOBS IF HOUSING PHOTOS JAPS BECAUSE THIS ONE WAS PACIFIC LEE ALMOST ALL THE PROGRAMS FOR ABOUT HOUSING? YEAH. AND I'LL BE BUILDING THE RIGHT TYPE OF HOUSING FOR THE NEED. THAT'S OUT THERE AND EVEN AFTER AND I WENT TO NINE OF THE

[00:55:01]

WE'RE GONNA TALK ABOUT MAYBE DOING A HOUSING STUDY AND NEEDS ASSESSMENT FOR HOUSING, SO WE BETTER UNDERSTAND THE HOUSING SITUATION. ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU. OKAY. SO IT WILL INTERRUPT. YOU KNOW, THAT'S THAT'S HER. THAT WAS A GREAT COMMENT. GREAT COMEDY ANY OTHER COMMENTS ON THIS PARTICULAR POINT? THIS MORNING WHEN WE MET, I DID ASK ERIC TO GIVE US AN UPDATE SINCE THEY ARE NOW WORKING CONSTRUCTION AT THE IMAC, SO HE WAS ABLE TO GET SOME INFORMATION TOGETHER TO KEEP ITS IMPORTANT ON WHAT'S GOING WHAT'S HAPPENING OUT THERE AT THE MOMENT? THANK YOU. THANK YOU, MR BURBEY TO THE RIGHT IS ACTUALLY THE LAYOUT OF THE 18,000 SQUARE FEET IN THE SOUTH GATE BUILDING AND AGAIN THIS IS YOU KNOW, WE CAME UP THIS CONCEPT IN 2017 AFTER VISITING THE NETHERLANDS, AND THIS IS SOMETHING THEY'VE DONE OVER THERE IN IN EINDHOVEN, AND WE WERE VERY IMPRESSED, AND THIS IS PART OF RELATED TO THE AUTOMOTIVE SECTOR. AND THE DIRECTION IS GOING BUT TO THE RIGHT IS A LAYOUT THAT ACTUALLY BEEN UPDATED IS IN THE PROCESS OF BEING UPDATED. THE FURNITURE HAS CHANGED. THE LAYOUTS CHANGED A LITTLE BIT. THE ROOMS ARE STILL ARE BASICALLY STILL THE SAME AS WELL. BUT THAT'S THE 18,000 SQUARE FEET. THEY STARTED CONSTRUCTION THIS PAST MONTH AND OF COURSE, CITY COUNCIL, THE STATE OF OHIO COUNTY COMMISSIONERS HAVE ALL BEEN PARTNERS REPORT AUTHORITY AS WELL. BUT IT'S 18,000 SQUARE FEET. IT'S IN THE INNOVATION PARK. IT'S THE NORTH END OF THE SOUTH GATE BUILDING. WE DO HAVE IN THE PROCESS. WE HAVE AN AGREEMENT WITH ALTON AUTOMOTIVE, WHICH IS A SUPPLIER TO THE AUTOMOTIVE SECTOR DOES A LOT OF WORK WITH WITH HONDA. THEY'VE AGREED ACTUALLY TO MANAGE THE FACILITY ATTRACT USERS AS WELL. WE HAVE TALKED TO USERS SO FAR, SO HOPEFULLY WE'LL HAVE MORE AGAIN. THIS IS PART OF GETTING INSTRUCTION GOING, SO NOW WE CAN PROMOTE IT AGAIN IN CONSTRUCTION STARTED THIS YEAR. IT'S GOING TO BE DONE IN APRIL, MAY LET'S HOPE MARCH, BUT IT'S BEEN DELAYED BY H V. A. C WAS ONE OF THE MAIN ISSUES GETTING IT ORDERED AND GETTING IT IN. AGAIN IT'S AN INCUBATOR FOR UP AND UP AND COMING EMERGING AUTOMOTIVE COMPANIES WILL BE WORKSPACE 13 PRIVATE PRIVATE OFFICES. OHIO STATE WILL HAVE A OFFICE THERE. THAT'S PART OF THE CAPITAL BILL APPROPRIATION BECAUSE THE MONIES ARE GOING THROUGH OHIO STATE. WE HAVE FOUR CONFERENCE SUITES, THERE'S A CLASS CLASSROOM STYLE CONFERENCE CENTER UP TO 80 PEOPLE. THERE IS A TESTING LAB TO THE BOTTOM LEFT. YOU CAN SEE CARS THAT ARE LOCATED HERE. YOU HAVE AN INTEREST ENTRYWAY SPACE THAT CAN ACCOMMODATE TO THE TO THE TO THE TOP 250 PEOPLE THAT COULD ACTUALLY BE SEATED THERE AS WELL. SO THAT'S A CONFERENCE CENTER CAN BE A CONFERENCE CENTER. IF WE NEED THAT SPACE WILL BE A CAFE MARKETPLACE IN THERE AS WELL IN THE FACILITY AS WELL, BUT THAT'S KIND OF AN OVERVIEW. OF THAT. I THINK. ORIGINALLY THE CONSTRUCTION BUDGET WAS AROUND 2 MILLION, BUT

[01:00:04]

WE GOT $200,000. FROM THE FROM THE STATE OF OHIO, AND THE REMAINDER CAME FROM THE CITY AND THE COUNTY TO MEET THAT DEFICIT OF THE INCREASED COST. SO THAT'S KIND OF AN OVERVIEW, THEN UPDATE ON ON A MACBOOK CONSTRUCTION IS WELL UNDERWAY. WE'RE HAVING ME WEEKLY MEETINGS WITH THE CONTRACTOR, WHICH IS FERGUSON CONSTRUCTION. THAT'S WHO'S BEEN SELECTED THEIR OUT OF NORTHWEST OHIO. SO THAT'S KIND OF AN UPDATE. I DON'T KNOW IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS ABOUT A MICK AND WHERE WE ARE. OKAY ARE THERE ANY QUESTIONS? YEAH YEAH, THE ONLY QUESTION AND I'M GLAD THAT WE I KNOW, MOVING FORWARD BECAUSE IN THE WORLD OF TECHNOLOGY MOVES SO QUICKLY, AND YOU MENTIONED EARLIER THIS WAS DONE. MAYBE 2019 THE IT'S FOUR YEARS LATER. YEAH. IS THE NEED STILL THERE THE SAME WAY THAT IT WAS MM. AND . ABBY IS STILL AS RELEVANT AS WE THOUGHT WE WORKED FOR YEARS AGO. THAT'S THAT. THAT WOULD BE MY MAIN. I LOOK AT THE ENTIRE THIRD RESPECTABILITY COURT OF THE BETA DISTRICT CALLED AS ARE WE WHERE WE NEED TO BE, AND WE JUST HIRED A FIRM TO DO APPLY FOR A SMART GRANT. WE NEED TO UPGRADE OUR TECHNOLOGY. WE NEED TO BE STILL CONTINUE TO BE AT THE FOREFRONT. TO ANSWER YOUR QUESTION. SHORT ANSWER IS YES. I THINK THIS IS STILL RELEVANT AND CAN BE RELEVANT. UM, ALTHOUGH WE'VE HAD A SWITCH TO E V INDUSTRY THROUGH THIS NEW ADMINISTRATION, WE GOTTA MARRY THIS SMART TECHNOLOGIES BACK OR THE A V WITH THE ELECTRIC AT SOME POINT, SO I THINK SMART MOBILITY. WE'LL BE BACK WITH EMPHASIS AT SOME POINT, SO I'VE ALREADY SEEN SOME OF THE OHMS PULL BACK ON SOME OF THEIR EVIE INVESTMENTS AND OTHER THINGS AS WELL. SO I THINK YOU'RE GOING TO SEE SOME NEW LIFE IN THE SMART MOBILITY ASPECT OF THAI AND MARY. THE AUTONOMOUS VEHICLE WITH THE SMART MOBILITY TECHNOLOGIES BECAUSE THAT HAS TO HAPPEN AT SOME POINT, SO BECAUSE WE DEFINITELY WANT TO BE ON THE CUTTING EDGE WITH IT, AND I'M GLAD THAT WE KNOW THAT THE POINT BY THE HAVE SOMETHING TO HAPPEN FOR COMPANIES TO COME OUT HERE AND ANNOUNCE A GREAT ANNOUNCEMENT TODAY WITH WITH WITH OHIO STATE'S THEIR BATTERY LAB, THEY'RE CONSTRUCTING HONDA AS A MAJOR INVESTOR INTO THAT THAT WAS ANNOUNCED TODAY, SO I THINK WE HAVE SOME BATTERY THAT YOU KNOW. FOUR YEARS AGO, WE HAD NO BATTERIES. DELL OPPORTUNITIES WE HAVE THAT NOW WITH HAMAS INVESTMENT SUPPLIER SUPREME, YOU KNOW, AND ALL THAT WE'VE BEEN TALKING TO SOME BATTERY. BATTERY CELL SUPPLIERS LOOKING AT THE INNOVATION PARK AS WELL. SO I THINK WE HAVE OPPORTUNITIES THERE TOO. OKAY. ALRIGHT, WONDERFUL. ANY QUESTIONS FOR ERIC ON THIS. OKAY ALREADY. ANYBODY ELSE? OKAY. THANKS ERIC. ONE MORE SLIDE REALLY QUICK.

JUST UPDATE YOU ON UBER. UM SO WE BROUGHT TO YOU AND I AND IDEA CONCEPT TO ENCOURAGE UBER RIDES IN MARYSVILLE. AS YOU KNOW, IT'S VERY EASY TO GET A RIDE FROM, YOU KNOW, FROM THE COLUMBUS AREA TO MARYSVILLE, BUT IT'S DIFFICULT TO GET A RIDE FROM MARYSVILLE ANYWHERE. SO WE HAVE BEEN WORKING WITH UBER AND WE DID SIGN IT THROUGH THE WE DID SIGN A CONTRACT WITH UBER TO IN FIRST INCENTIVIZED RIDERS WITH A $10 SUBSIDY THAT WE'RE GOING TO BE STARTING ROLLING OUT. IT WILL BE A MARKETING PLAN SO YOU'LL GET A $10 SUBSIDY. WE'RE HOPING WE CAN CREATE DEMAND. IF THAT DEMAND DOES NOT WORK, THEN WE'RE GOING TO WORK ON THE SUPPLY DRIVERS. WE'RE GOING TO START OFFERING A DRIVER INCENTIVE TO GO WITH THAT TO GET DRIVERS TO STAY IN THE MARY'S AWARE TO ACTUALLY PROVIDE RIDES RIGHT NOW , WE DO NOT HAVE A PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION SYSTEM. AS WE ALL KNOW, THIS IS AN ALTERNATIVE WAY TO LOOK AT THE PRIVATE SECTOR TO TRY TO SOLVE OUR PROBLEM HERE, BUT WE'VE RAISED $76,000 26,000 THAT IS ACTUALLY FROM THE PRIVATE SECTOR. WE'RE STILL WORKING ON A FEW OTHER INVESTORS INTO THE PROGRAM AS WELL. THIS WOULD BE A PILOT OVER THE NEXT YEAR AND SO THIS IS WHAT CITY AND COUNTY SUPPORT AS WELL. BUT WE'RE WORKING ON THAT. WE HAVE A CALL TOMORROW ABOUT MARKETING. WE'RE GOING TO GET A Q R CODE OUT FOR EVERYONE TO USE. SO WHEN YOU USE THE APP IN MARYSVILLE, THEY'LL YOU'LL HAVE AN OPPORTUNITY AN UBER AND YOU'LL HAVE. IT WILL SAY, DO YOU WANT TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THIS? THIS SUBSIDY FOR YOU? AND OF COURSE YOU'D YOU'D BE SMART TO DO SO. AND TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THAT AND GET A REDUCTION ON YOUR UBER FEE OR COST AND THEREFORE YOU CAN GET A THIRD PARTY ACTUALLY PROVIDE YOU A RIDE FROM POINT A TO POINT B. THIS IS JUST NOT FOR RESTAURANTS AND RETAIL. THIS IS ALSO FOR WORKFORCE IF SOMEONE NEEDS TO GET TO PLACE OF WORK IF THEIR CAR IS BROKEN IN ONE DAY, THEY CAN USE UBER TO GET TO GET TO WORK THAT DAY AND MAKE SOME MONEY AS WELL. SO THAT'S REALLY THE PURPOSE OF THIS PROGRAM. SO WE'RE EXCITED ABOUT THIS. AND IT WILL BE KICKING OFF OVER THE NEXT FEW WEEKS. FOR YOU. IF I MAY. DO YOU KNOW IF ANY OVER THERE OVER 60 LIVING IN THE IMMEDIATE AREA OR MENTIONED THAT

[01:05:05]

INCENTIVIZED THOUGH, TOO COME SOMEWHERE ELSE TO MARYSVILLE. YOU'RE INCENTIVIZED TO BELIEVE MARY'S OR THE HONDA AREA TO GO SOMEWHERE ELSE. SO I UNDERSTAND THERE'S A SUBSIDY ONLY WORKS THAT WAY NOT COMING INTO MARYSVILLE. OKAY THANK YOU. THANK YOU. ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? OKAY WONDERFUL PRESENTATION, ERIC. THANK YOU. THANK YOU. THANKS SO MUCH. OKAY UM, MOVING

I'M GOING TO SPEAK ON LATER TODAY. HOWEVER RECENT COMING UP TODAY IS THERE WERE SOME CONVERSATION ABOUT WE'LL CALL BUMP OUTS FOR LACK OF A BETTER TERM ON FOURTH STREET ON THE CROSS WALK FROM THE PARKING LOT OVER LEON'S. I KNOW THERE'S SOME CONTROVERSY BECAUSE IT'S NEW. IT'S DIFFERENT. UM, BUT MY MOTHER IN LAW LIVES THERE. SHE'S 84 YEARS OLD. UH WITH THE TRAFFIC FLOW ON FIFTH STREET FORESTRY IS BECOMING ALTERNATIVE AND ALTERNATIVE RACEWAY. AND IF NOTHING ELSE, AS PEOPLE HAVE HIT THAT THEY'VE LEARNED THEY HAVE TO SLOW DOWN.

I WOULD ENCOURAGE SOME SPEED BUMPS OR SOMETHING TO KEEP IT IN SLOWER. BUT IF YOU'RE GOING TO PROPER SPEED THAT THAT WAS £1 REALLY HARD, ANY ISSUE THE OTHER SIDE OF IT, AND I MENTIONED THIS TO TERRY AND I THINK IT'S IMPORTANT AS PEOPLE HAVE HIT. IT WAS PUMP OUTS. NO KIND OF LOOK LIKE THE ASPHALT SO THEY'RE MORE DIFFICULT TO SEE SO SOME TYPE OF REFLECTIVE MATERIALS ON THERE FOR AN EVENING OR SOMETHING TO STAND OUT WOULD BE HELPFUL. ALL RIGHT. DO YOU THINK THAT THAT BUMP OUT? ALTHOUGH ODD FOR HERE, IT'S NOT UNUSUAL WHATSOEVER EVERYWHERE ELSE, UM, IT COULD IT COULD LEAD TO A BETTER SAFETY ENVIRONMENT, PARTICULARLY ON THE RESIDENTIAL STREETS. WHICH FOURTH STREET IS. THANK YOU. THANK YOU. SO MUCH FOR YOUR COMMENTS AND I'M SURE STEP WILL MAKE NOTE OF YOUR COMMENT, ESPECIALLY WITH REGARDS TO THE REFLECTIVENESS IN THE DARK, SO ANYBODY ELSE? KATHY 25 WEST EIGHT. THE ANSWER TO YOUR QUESTION ABOUT UBER DRIVERS AND

[01:10:02]

UM. I'VE STOOD HERE BEFORE AND MENTIONED THAT. YOU KNOW IF YOU'RE GONNA BE WILLING TO CRITICIZE, NEED TO BE WILLING TO COMPLEMENT AND TONIGHT I'M HERE PRIMARILY TO COMPLEMENT ONE OF WHICH IS I'VE MENTIONED SOMETHING ABOUT WHAT WAS GOING ON ON FOURTH STREET A WHILE BACK AND WANNA COMPLIMENT KYLE FOR REACHING OUT AND SENDING AN EMAIL AND UPDATING ME ON THE INFORMATION HE PROVIDED THIS EVENING, AND I GREATLY APPRECIATE THAT THAT ONE SHOWS A LOT OF LOT OF EFFORT ON HIS PART TO REACH OUT AND PROVIDE ME THE INFORMATION AS WELL AS TO THE ADMINISTRATION FOR MAKING SURE THAT THAT SITUATION IS MADE WHOLE. AFTER ALL THE EFFORT AND ENERGY THEY PUT FORTH TO REPAIR THE AREA. SO KYLE, THANK YOU. I APPRECIATE THAT. UM ALSO, UM, UH, TO COUNSELING A COUPLE COUNCIL PEOPLE INDIVIDUALLY. UM I THINK THERE WAS AN ELECTION HERE RECENTLY AND SOME THINGS HAPPEN. UM SOME OF THAT WOULD BE THAT WE HAVE SOME COUNCIL FOLKS

[01:15:07]

BECAUSE SITTING, I DON'T MAKE ANYTHING AND THAT'S THE PROBLEM WITH BEING IN MARYSVILLE IS YOU DON'T YOU DON'T GET THE TURNOVER. I NEED TO HAVE PEOPLE IN THE CAR NONSTOP TO BE ABLE TO MAKE SOME MONEY. SO UM, I THINK IT'S WORTHWHILE TO LOOK AT DOING SOME INCENTIVE VISITATION WITH THE WRITERS BUT HAVING DRIVERS THAT ARE STATIONED HERE IN TOWN THAT LIVE HERE AND INCENTIVIZING THEM BECAUSE WHAT'S GOING TO HAPPEN IS, UM, IF YOU'RE A DRIVER HERE, WHAT I WOULD DO IS I TURN THE APP ON AS SOON AS I WAS READY TO GO. AND AT THAT TIME, AND THIS HAS BEEN A FEW YEARS AGO, I KNEW I WASN'T GETTING ANY RIGHTS HERE. I PICK UP RIGHT AS I WAS GOING INTO DUBLIN IF YOU ARE LIVING HERE, AND YOU'RE DOING IT PART TIME YOU CAN TURN THE APP ON AND DO LAUNDRY. DO DISHES. DO WHATEVER. GET A RIDE. GO PICK THEM UP. MAYBE THEY STICK AROUND HERE AND YOU HAVE TO BE AWARE THAT AS AN UBER DRIVER, YOU DO NOT KNOW WHERE YOU'RE GOING. YOU KNOW, YOU KNOW WHERE YOU'RE GOING TO PICK UP YOUR WRITER. YOU DO NOT KNOW WHERE YOUR FINAL DESTINATION IS. AND THAT'S THE RISK. AND THE TRICK IS THAT IF YOU HAVE SOMEBODY THAT'S LIVING HERE IN MARYSVILLE THEY CALL AN UBER THEY MAY BE GOING TO THE AIRPORT. YOU DON'T KNOW THAT AS AN UBER DRIVER WHEN YOU GO TO PICK THEM UP. IT'S A SURPRISE BECAUSE AFTER YOU CLICK THE APP, IT SAYS YOU PICKED UP YOUR RIDE. OH LOOK, I'M GOING TO THE OTHER SIDE OF COLUMBUS. UH, AND ONCE YOU'RE DOWN THERE, YOU'RE NOT GONNA HOLE EMPTY BACK HERE TO PICK UP A DRIVE A WRITER. YOU'RE GONNA STAY IN COLUMBUS. AH AND PROBABLY AROUND THE AIRPORT TO PICK UP A WRITER. SO JUST AS AN ASIDE, UM AND AS MY TIME PROBABLY IS DRIVING CLOSE SINCE I MENTIONED COUNCIL, UM LITTLE DISAPPOINTED. I THINK WE ONLY HAVE ONE OF THE NEW ELECTED. HE'S HERE. UM, HOPEFULLY THEY'LL RAISE THE BAR A LITTLE BIT AND BE HERE ON A MORE REGULAR BASIS. BUT THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME. AND AGAIN, EVERYONE ON COUNCIL THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR YOUR SERVICE AND THOSE THAT WILL BE DEPARTING US. UH ENJOY YOUR SPARE TIME. WHAT WILL YOU DO WITH ALL THAT SPARE TIME, BUT I HOPE IT'S PRODUCTIVE AND WITH LOVED ONES, SO, THANK YOU ALREADY. THANKS. SO MUCH FOR YOUR COMMENTS. JOHN.

APPRECIATE IT. ANYBODY ELSE? OKAY? 80 NONE. REALLY GO DIRECTLY INTO ORDINANCE SINCE WE

[Ord. A]

BACK ON JUNE 22ND, THE FULL CITY COUNCIL IN THE FULL SCHOOL BOARD , MET TO DISCUSS WAYS THAT THEY COULD POTENTIALLY CONSIDER AND TAKE INTO ACCOUNT. SOME OF THE IMPACTS OF THIS SCHOOL LEVY NOT PASSING, AND IT'S THE SAME TIME UH SOME OF THE CONCERNS THE CITY HAD WITH OPTIONS THAT WERE BEING PRESENTED AT THAT TIME. THEY MET ON JUNE 22ND JULY OR JUNE 22ND JULY 21ST AND IT WAS FACILITATED. AH BY UNION COUNTY COMPARE ADMINISTRATOR TIM HANDLEY WAS A PART OF THE FACILITATION AS WELL AS A CITY MANAGER HILLIARD, MICHELLE CRANDALL. THEY DID A FANTASTIC

[01:20:03]

JULY 12TH AUGUST 24 SEPTEMBER 28TH AND, YES, JUNE 28TH. SO THERE WERE FOUR MEETINGS OF THAT WORKING GROUP. THE BIG AREA OF DISCUSSION AMONG THE WORKING GROUP DURING THOSE MEETINGS WAS THE IMPACT TO THE SCHOOLS ON THE RESIDENTIAL TIPS THAT WERE ESTABLISHED BACK IN 2005 AND, YOU KNOW, HELPING THE SCHOOLS UNDERSTAND, OBVIOUSLY AND RECOUNTING WHY IT WAS DONE. AT THAT TIME TO HELP WITH THE GROWTH AND THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE COMMUNITY THAT HAD ISSUES ASSOCIATED WITH OUR UTILITY SYSTEM AT THAT TIME, AND SO THERE'S TIPS WERE DEVELOPED, BUT THE SCHOOLS CONCERNED RIGHT NOW WAS IF THEY PURSUE MOVING FORWARD WITH OUR EXISTING COMPENSATION AGREEMENT WITH THE SCHOOLS IF THEY PURSUED A LEVEE THEY WERE ASKING THE CITY TO CONSIDER ADDITIONAL INCREASE MILLAGE THAT THEY WOULD PURSUE TO BE ABLE TO HAVE 100% OF THAT.

GO TO THE SCHOOLS. OF COURSE, THE CITY CONTINGENT WAS VERY CONCERNED AND WANTED TO UNDERSTAND THAT THE DEBT RESPONSIBILITY THAT WE HAD AND TO ENSURE THAT WE HAD THE ABILITY TO COVER THAT DEBT OF RESPONSIBILITY, SO THOSE DISCUSSIONS WERE HAD AS WELL FROM THAT MEETING. WE'VE COME UP WITH A PIECE OF LEGISLATION THAT IS BEFORE YOU TONIGHT. IT'S A COMPETENT SCHOOL COMPENSATION AGREEMENT, CITY AND SCHOOL COMPENSATION AGREEMENT. MOVING FORWARD BETWEEN NOW AND DECEMBER . 31ST OF 2025. IF THE SCHOOLS BRING A LEVEE FORWARD WITH INCREASED MILLAGE 100% OF THAT INCREASED MILLAGE WILL GO TO THE SCHOOLS, OKAY, AND THAT WILL TAKE PLACE ANY TIME THEY DO SOMETHING BETWEEN NOW AND DECEMBER. 31ST OF 2025. THIS COMMITTEE THAT'S BEEN PUT TOGETHER, THIS WORKING GROUP WILL CONTINUE TO MEET OUR NEXT MEETING'S EVEN SET UP FOR I THINK IT'S DECEMBER 5TH THAT WE'RE HAVING ANOTHER MEETING, AND, UM WELL, PROBABLY AS WE MOVE FORWARD, PROBABLY, UH, MEET ON MORE OF A QUARTERLY BASIS THAN WHAT WE DID HERE. WE'RE ALMOST MEETING MONTHLY THIS SUMMER AND EARLY FALL. SO THIS IS A CONVERSATION AND A DIALOGUE THAT WILL CONTINUE AND AS WE SEE THE SUCCESS OF THE NEXT SCHOOL LEVY THE SUPPORT FROM THE COMMUNITY, WHICH I THINK IT WILL BE THERE. WE CAN CONTINUE TO HAVE DIALOGUE MOVING FORWARD BETWEEN THE TWO ENTITIES TO ENSURE THAT AS WE MOVE FORWARD THAT THE CITY'S CONTINUALLY ABLE TO COVER OUR DEBT RESPONSIBILITIES AND THE SCHOOLS ARE RECEIVING AMPLE INCREASED MILLAGE FROM THEIR REQUEST. THAT'S WHAT'S BEFORE YOU TONIGHT . IT'S THE FIRST RATING FOR THAT . I WANT TO THANK MARK REAMS, ALLEN SEYMOUR AS WELL AS BRAD, WHO WAS ON OUR CITY TEAM, AND I WANTED TO THANK THE SCHOOL'S PERSONALLY TONIGHT AS WELL.

SUPERINTENDENT DIANE ALLEN, TODD JOHNSON, ASU DIVINE AND BUILD CHECK FOR THEIR PARTICIPATION IN THESE WORKING GROUP MEETINGS AND REALLY, TO THANK THE FULL CITY COUNCIL AND THE FULL SCHOOL BOARD, FOR THAT MATTER. BECAUSE IT TOOK BOTH GROUPS TO COME TOGETHER TO REALLY GET THIS INITIATED TO GET US TO WHERE WE ARE THIS EVENING. SO THAT'S ALL I HAVE. UNLESS THERE'S ANY FURTHER QUESTIONS AND LET'S SEE IF WE CAN GET THIS PAST. OKAY UM , IF I MAY GRADUALLY IN MANY OF THOSE, BUT IS YOUR COMFORT LEVEL WITH BRITISH, IT IS GOOD THING. FOR I HAVE NO CONCERNS WITH THE AGREEMENT AS PRESENTED THE COUNCIL FOR YOU. OKAY MHM. OKAY. THANK YOU. WE APPRECIATE IT.

ANYBODY ELSE? OKAY UM, HOW MANY TIMELINE PERSPECTIVE, OBVIOUSLY. UM I'M UP TO BELIEVE THAT ALL LEGISLATION SHOULD HAVE A PUBLIC HEARING, SO WE WILL BRING THIS BACK FOR NOVEMBER 27TH, BUT AT

[01:25:02]

[Ord. B]

SO THAT'S JUST, UM WE STILL CONTINUE TO SEE A LOT OF GREAT STAFF WHO HAVE PUT IN MANY YEARS OF SERVICE, UNFORTUNATELY, DECIDE TO AH, FOR THE MOST PART, RETIRE AS OPPOSED TO GO SOMEPLACE ELSE, WHICH I THINK IS SAYING A LOT. UM, BUT AS WE HAVE DONE EVEN BEFORE I WAS HERE, WE'VE MOVED MONIES INTO THAT FUND TO KIND OF KEEP TRACK OF THOSE COSTS. SO I DO HAVE TO REQUEST THAT INCREASE THEIR UM, THE COURT POLICE AND FIRE FUND. REALLY THOSE ARE YOU KNOW, IT'S RELATED TO SOME TECHNICAL SERVICE LINE ITEMS. WE ALSO HAD SOME RECRUITMENT AND PHYSICALS THEY NEED TO CHANGE NEEDED. SOME INCREASES THEIR ONCE AGAIN. I DO EXPECT THAT FUND TO COME IN UNDER BUDGET, BUT THOSE WHO MIGHT NOT ITEMS DO NEED SOME HELP. THE COMMERCIAL TIFF FUND.

WE STILL HAVE BEEN APPLYING THE LEGAL SERVICE COSTS TO THOSE TO THOSE RECEIPTS. UM SO THAT THIS IS ACTUALLY THE FIRST YEAR WE WERE DOING THAT, SO I REALLY DIDN'T KNOW HOW MUCH TO APPROPRIATE WHEN I ASKED FOR THE SUPPLEMENT OF THE LAST TIME, I'M ASKING FOR ANOTHER ONE. OF COURSE. ONCE AGAIN, THOSE ARE OFFSET BY REVENUES. NORTHWEST 33 GRAND FUND. SAME THING. WE WERE SPENDING A LITTLE BIT MORE MONEY , BUT THAT WILL BE REIMBURSED AND THEN IN THE ENTERPRISE FUNDS , THESE ARE MOSTLY ONCE AGAIN JUST LINE ITEMS THAT YOU KNOW, IN THE SANITATION FUND. THIS WAS NOT UNEXPECTED. WE HAD AN INCREASE IN CONTRACT SERVICES DUE TO REPUBLICS INCREASE, BUT OF COURSE, WE HAD INCREASES IN REVENUES SO THAT ONE DOESN'T CONCERN ME A LITTLE BIT OF HOSPITAL MEDICAL INSURANCE THERE . UM AND THAT, AND WITH THE HOSPITAL MEDICAL INSURANCE LINES, I SHOULD NOTE. EVERY MONTH. I UPDATE THOSE AS AN ESTIMATE. I'M TRYING TO CAPTURE THE LATEST SNAPSHOT OF HOW MUCH WE'RE SPENDING ON MEDICAL INSURANCE AS OF EVERY MONTH.

PEOPLE CAN CHANGE COVERAGES AT ANY TIME. SO. THIS IS MY ATTEMPT TO MAKE SURE THAT FIRST OF ALL

[01:30:01]

ACTUALLY THAT LINE ITEM IS USED ONLY TO PAY REPUBLICS CONTRACT SERVICE. YEAH, SO OKAY. ANY OTHER ONES. OKAY SO AGAIN, THIS ONE WILL BE BACK FOR A SECOND READING PUBLIC HEARING ON

[Ord. C]

THEY ALSO TOOK ADVANTAGE OR TOOK THE TIME IN THERE AND SAID IF THERE'S 1/5 DISTRICT THAT IS REASONABLY EXPECTED TO HIT A MILLION FIVE AND THE LIFE OF THE TIFF, THEN YOU CAN NOW EXTENDED FOR 30 YEARS EVEN THOUGH YOU MAY NOT HAVE HIT THE MILLION FIVE THRESHOLD YET. UM THERE'S BEEN A LOT OF COMMUNITIES WHO HAVE JUMPED ON BOARD TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THIS, UM THIS OPPORTUNITY. THE KEY POINT TO ALL THIS, THOUGH, AND I WANT TO MAKE SURE IT'S A STRESSED IS THAT THE SCHOOL DISTRICTS OR 100% MADE WHOLE UM, YOU CANNOT EVEN NEGOTIATE A DEAL WITH THE SCHOOLS TO DO ANYTHING LESS THAN FULL COMPENSATION IN THE CAREER CENTERS BY THE WAY, BECAUSE THAT ALSO GOT TOSSED INTO THE LAWS. UM PRIOR TO THIS CAREER CENTERS WERE NOT PART OF THE COMPENSATION STRUCTURE. THERE'S UM THERE'S SOME WAYS TO LOOK AT THIS, UM, YOU KNOW, AND JUST TO GIVE YOU SLIP SOME FACTS HERE AS TO WHAT? WHAT THIS. THIS MEANS TO THE COMMUNITY. UM WHEN YOU'RE

[01:35:05]

GOOD FINANCING DISTRICTS EXEMPT THAT VALUE FROM THE STATE OF STATED FORMULA. SO AS YOU HAVE THIS COMPENSATION OUT THERE, IT ACTUALLY IS A NET GAIN OF THE SCHOOLS BY BY AVOIDING THAT REVENUE FROM BEING DEDUCTED FROM THE STATE. IF THAT MAKES SENSE, AND SO THAT'S ONE FACTOR THAT SOME COMMUNITIES HAVE LOOKED AT IT AND SAID, OK. MAYBE IT'S A SMART MOVE FORWARD. UM IT WAS INTERESTING. YOU HAD YOUR INFRASTRUCTURE PLAYING UP HERE TONIGHT. THERE'S COMMUNITIES WHO ARE SEEING GROWTH AND LOOKING FOR OTHER REVENUES AND NOT DEPLETING THEIR, UM THEIR CURRENT REVENUE STREAMS, AND SO THEY USE THOSE REVENUES ON THE EXTENSIONS TO HELP PAY FOR OTHER PUBLIC INFRASTRUCTURE IMPROVEMENTS. UM YOU KNOW, THAT HELPS YOU AVOID HAVING TO GO BACK FOR ROAD LEVY INCREASES OR WHATEVER, BUT AND IT'S NOT JUST WITHIN THAT DISTRICT. SOMETIMES WE GET FOCUSED ON THE FACT THAT IT'S THE TIFF DISTRICT SAID, CREATING THE INCREMENT VALUE AND THE REVENUE FLOW. THE DISTRICT TASK TO JUST HAS BEEN BENEFIT TO FIND BACK TO THE DISTRICT. AND SO, FOR EXAMPLE, WE'VE SEEN TIFF USAGE THREE MILES AWAY FROM A DISTRICT BECAUSE IT INCREASED TRAFFIC FLOW OR ACCESS TO A CERTAIN AREA TO MOVE TRAFFIC AWAY OR BETTER THROUGH THE INFRASTRUCTURE PLAN. AND SO IT'S ANOTHER WAY TO LOOK AT THESE OPPORTUNITIES AS WELL. UM. HMM YOU KNOW, RIGHT NOW, THERE WAS NO DOUBT THEY THIS IS A REDIRECTION REVENUE AND THERE'S NO ARGUMENT TO THAT, UM, THE ONES THAT WILL STILL BE HURT IS REALLY THE SIT MAINLY THE CITY AND THE COUNTY IN TERMS OF INSIDE MILLAGE. BECAUSE YOU KNOW YOU WOULD SEE WHERE THE VALUE COMES OFF OF A TIFF TESTER. TWO ORBITS COLLAPSED. THAT VALUE IS TREATED AS NEW CONSTRUCTION. AND SO WHAT HAPPENS WITH ALL THE LEVEES OUT THERE THAT HAVE BEEN VOTED? GENERALLY ALL IN THE SCHOOLS HAVE SOME EXCLUSIONS, BUT THEY ALL GET ROLLED BACK TO COLLECT WHAT THEY WERE ORIGINALLY INTENDED TO COLLECT IN THE FIRST PLACE. SO IT'S NOT THE CONTINUATION OF A DISTRICT THAT HURTS THESE LEVEES. IT WAS ACTUALLY IF YOU WANT TO GET DOWN TO IT. IT WAS THE INITIAL FORMATION OF THE TIFF DISTRICT IN THE GROWTH OF IT OVER TIME THAT AVOIDED YOU KNOW THEM, MAKING ANY REVENUE OFF ITSELF OR THE OR THAT INCREASED VALUE. SO THEY WON'T SEE ANY BENEFIT FROM THIS. IT'S REALLY THE INSIDE KNOWLEDGE FROM THE COUNTY AND THE CITY. AND THOSE ARE THE ONES THAT REALLY, UM YOU KNOW, WOULD WOULD BE HURT IN TERMS OF THIS NOW. I BACKED INTO THIS, UM, NUMBER OF A MILLION FIVE IN TERMS OF WHAT THAT MEANS TO THE CITY. IT'S ROUGHLY RIGHT ABOUT $26 MILLION IN VALUE. AND SO IF YOU IF YOU BACK THAT ASSESSED VALUE, I'M SORRY IF YOU BACK THAT IN WITH THAT MEANS THE COUNTY. THEY DIDN'T RUN THE CITY'S NUMBERS, BUT IT'S ABOUT $84,000 A YEAR. UM IS THE NET HIT TO THE TO THE COUNTY'S INSIDE GENERAL? FIND IF YOU WILL. SO. THAT'S A LOT BEING SAID, UM, YOU KNOW THAT WE THOUGHT AT ONE POINT IN TIME, THE CITY HAD MISSED A MILLION FIVE. IF THERE WERE SOME TAX COLLECTIONS THAT CAUGHT UP AND SO WE REALLY TRULY DIDN'T MISS THE MILLION FIVE. SO WHAT WE'RE DOING HERE IS LOOKING AT THE OPPORTUNITY RELATIVE TO THE FUTURE PROJECTION, WHICH IT WILL HIT A MILLION FIVE AT SOME POINT IN TIME OF THE CITY, TAKING ADVANTAGE OF IT NOW. INTO THAT POINT, UM YOU KNOW, SOME COMMUNITIES SAID HEY, YOU KNOW WHAT? I'LL WAIT AND YOU COULD WAIT, BUT OTHER COMMUNITIES HAVE SAID LISTEN, I WOULD RATHER TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THIS NOW, UM, BECAUSE CHANGES IN STATE HALL OCCUR ALL THE TIME. IN FACT, THIS ISSUE WAS FOUND BY ACCIDENT . I STILL CANNOT FIND AN ESTATE WHO GOT THIS PAST BUT NOBODY ADMITS TO IT. UM BUT IT WAS THE BEST BOND DEVELOPMENT ATTORNEYS IN THE STATE OF OHIO HAD NO CLUE THIS WAS WAS IN THE STATE LAW. IT'S NOT GOING TO THE BUDGET BILL LAST MINUTE. SO I SAY THAT BECAUSE AS EASY AS IT WAS PUT IN JUST AS EASY AS IT COULD BE TAKEN OUT, AND YOU NEVER KNOW. YOU KNOW WHAT AGENCY MIGHT BE OUT THERE? THIS IS A THIS ISN'T RIGHT. BUT SOME COMMUNITIES HAVE SAID, HEY, WE'LL TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THIS NOW AND GET THIS PAST.

UM KEEP IN MIND. IT DOESN'T GO INTO EFFECT UNTIL THE END OF THE TIFF DISTRICT. SO UM, FUTURE COUNCILS COULD GET RID OF THIS IF THEY WANTED TO. IT'S JUST PRESERVING THE RIGHT TO DO IT NOW TO EXTEND IT FOR 30 YEARS, SO AS LONG AS YOU HAVEN'T BORROWED PAST THAT INITIAL 30 YEAR TIMEFRAME YOU ALWAYS HAVE THE EXCLUSION. WE'VE HAD SOME COMMUNITIES DO THIS. SO HERE WE'RE GONNA PASS THIS NOW WE'LL SEE WHAT'S GOING ON DOWN THE ROAD. AND IF WE DON'T NEED IT, THEN WE'LL GET RID OF IT. THAT'S ALL I'VE GOT FOR YOU, OKAY? ANY QUESTIONS FOR ANDY? IF YOU DO THE EXTENSION, DOES IT HAVE TO BE FOR AN ADDITIONAL 30 YEARS OR CAN WE ADMIT THE LEGISLATION.

[01:40:05]

SO THAT WE KIND OF PRESERVE THAT RIGHT IF WE NEED TO USE IT IN THE FUTURE. THEY KIND OF LOCKS THAT IN AND IF WE WANT TO CHANGE IT LATER, WE CAN BUT IT IS POSSIBLE THAT IF WE DID NOT ENACTED NOW WE COULD LOSE THAT OPPORTUNITY AND THAT FLEXIBILITY THAT'S CORRECT. YEAH YEAH, IT'S A TO ME. IT'S AN ISSUE OF MAKING SURE THE CITY HAS GOT THE MOST FLEXIBILITY AS POSSIBLE. YOU CAN CANCEL ONE YEAR TIPS SO YOU DON'T HAVE ANY DEBT ON IT. RIGHT SO I MEAN, THAT'S IN SOME COMMUNITIES HAVE COLLAPSED SOME RESIDENTIAL INCENTIVE DISTRICTS THEY DIDN'T NEED THAT THEY PUT IN PLACE YEARS AGO. BUT YOU KNOW YOU CAN'T GO THE REVERSE WAY ONCE THAT VALUATION AND IT EXPIRES AND EVALUATION COMES ON THE DUPLICATE. THEN THEN YOU'VE LOST THAT OPPORTUNITY. THE OTHER WAY TO LOOK AT THIS, TOO, IS SOME SOME COMMUNITIES HAVE SAID, LISTEN, THAT BASE YEAR THAT WAS LOCKED IN IS SO LOW, RATHER PRESERVE THIS ONE OVER HERE INSTEAD OF STARTING A NEW ONE OVER HERE, AND THAT'S ANOTHER WAY TO LOOK AT IT AS WELL. OKAY? HMM ANY QUESTIONS, BUT BY THE WAY, THAT'S PROBABLY A BETTER SITUATION FOR ALL YOUR VOTED LEVEES IN THE COUNTY IN THE CITY , THEN CANCELING THIS BECAUSE THEY'RE GOING TO SEE THE SOMEWHAT OF AN INCREASED A LITTLE BIT. BUT YOU KNOW, THE ISSUE IS WHEN THEY WOULD GO BACK ON FOR A RENEWAL OR AN INCREASE.

THAT'S WHEN THEY SEE THE BENEFIT OF THE VALUE. IT'S THERE BECAUSE THE MILLAGE THEORETICALLY MIGHT BE LOWER IF THEY'RE LOOKING AT THE SAME AMOUNT, BUT THAT TYPICALLY DOESN'T WHAT HAPPENS.

HAVING DONALD SO, MRS COAT QUESTION. YOU KNOW WHAT YOU ASKED ME YEARS AGO, YOU SAID IS THIS REMEMBER? I DON'T REMEMBER THOSE WORDS YOU LOOKED AT ME AND SAID, IS THIS TIFF DEAL A GOOD DEAL BECAUSE WE HAD A LETTER OF CREDIT BEHIND IT. WE WERE THE CITY WAS FIRST TIME THE CITY DEAL DEALT WITH IT IF THE TRANSACTION AND YOU KNOW IT DID ITS PURPOSE. IT WORKED OUT GREAT , AND NOW YOU HAVE AN OPPORTUNITY TO LOOK AT IT IN A DIFFERENT WAY. IF YOU IF YOU SO CHOOSE MHM 81 OTHER QUESTION. AND WHEN WE OR IF YOU WERE TO DECIDE TO LOCK IT IN, THEN THE STATE CANNOT COME BACK AND TAKE THAT AWAY. NOT ONCE YOU'VE LOCKED IT IN THE NOT WHEN YOU HAVE LIKE IT'S UP TO YOU. YOU'RE CHOOSING TO GET RID OF IT OR EXTINGUISHED BECAUSE YOU SAID SELECTION BECAUSE YOU SAID THE STATE SOMETIMES CAN PUT IT IN. THEY CAN. THEY CAN NOT PUT IT IN , BUT THAT COULD BE AT STATE LEVEL. BUT ONCE ANYTHING IS LIKE THEN IT IS LOCKED IN AND THEN IT'S UP TO OH, AS TO DECIDE HOW WE WANT TO MANAGE IT. YEAH, OKAY. MR PRESIDENT, WOULD IT BE APPROPRIATE? JUST ASK ANDY. HOW HOW LONG HAVE YOU BEEN FINANCIALLY ADVISING THE CITY OF ARIZONA? AND I THINK IT'S IMPORTANT TO NOTE FOR EIGHT KIDS, AND THEY'RE ALL GRADUATED FROM HIGH SCHOOL AND THE MUSLIM COLLEGE 25 SOME YEARS 26 YEARS. SO SO HE'S JUST NOT NEW TO US, SO THEY DON'T INVITE ME UP ANYMORE. THAT'S THE PROBLEM. YEAH BUT YOU'RE ALWAYS WELCOME.

WELCOME SO NO OTHER QUESTIONS FOR TRENDY AT THIS POINT. UM OKAY. UM ACCORDING TO OUR SPIRITUAL HE WOULD NOW BE TIME FOR COUNCIL. HOWEVER I WOULD RESPECT FOR PEOPLE THAT WOULD WANT TO SPEAK COULD BE. ARE YOU OKAY WITH SWITCHING THAT TO HERE HE COMES CITIZENS FIRST. AND THEN, IF COUNCIL HAS ADDITIONAL QUESTIONS OF OBSERVATIONS, IS THAT OKAY? YEAH, BECAUSE OKAY, SO AT THIS POINT, AND, UM, WE, UH, IN THIS PARTICULAR CASE, WE ARE MOVING CITIZENS BEFORE COUNCIL. SO ANYBODY SEE THAT WOULD LIKE TO COMMENT ON THIS. THIS IS YOUR OPPORTUNITY TO STEP FORWARD AND YOU ALREADY MENTIONED THAT WE COULD EXPECT TO HEAR FROM YOU. HMM HMM HMM.

AND THE SEVERITY TO 7 TO 0. PAUL MARLIN, MARYSVILLE, UM, ALSO THE UNION COUNTY TREASURER. AS SUCH, UM IN INTIMATELY FAMILIAR WITH TIFFS, THE IMPACT OF TIFFS. I APPRECIATE ANDY ANDY, THERE IS A

[01:45:03]

THE LIBRARY AND THE HEALTH DEPARTMENT. THAT ALL DEPENDS ON OUR OUR TAX LEVIES. SO PLEASE, I ASK IF YOU DON'T EXTEND THIS ANOTHER 30 YEARS, SO THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME. I APPRECIATE IT.

THANK YOU FOR YOUR COMMENTS. APPRECIATE IT. ANYBODY ELSE THAT WOULD LIKE TO CHANGE IN JOHN.

JOHN MARSHALL 1211 WOULD LINE DRIVE HERE IN MARYSVILLE. UM YOU KNOW, AT THE TIME THESE TIPS WERE PUT IN PLACE. THINGS ARE QUITE DIFFERENT. WHAT THEY ARE NOW, UM THERE WAS NO CITY INCOME TAX, SO WE WERE SEARCHING FOR REVENUE. AND ADDITIONALLY WE WERE UP AGAINST THE WALL BECAUSE WE HAD TO FIND A WAY TO CREATE A NEW WATER TREATMENT FACILITY. SO YOU KNOW, WE MADE THE BEST DECISIONS WE COULD. AND WHEN I SAY WE I'M PRETTY SURE THIS ORIGINAL LEGISLATION HAS MY NAME ON IT AND PROBABLY A POSITIVE VOTE BECAUSE I WAS ON COUNCIL AT THAT TIME. AND SOME OF THE THINGS THAT I REMEMBER AND THERE'S BEEN A FAIR AMOUNT OF WATER UNDER THE BRIDGE. SINCE THEN, MY MEMORY IS NOT THAT GREAT. SO FOR ME TO REMEMBER ANYTHING AS A STRETCH, BUT ONE

[01:50:02]

MAYBE I DIDN'T CATCH THIS DETAIL THAT THESE THINGS COULD BE AMENDED. AH INDEFINITELY FOR FOREVER. IT SEEMS LIKE IT WOULD SEEM LIKE IT WOULD BE A GOOD IDEA FOR THE CITY TO GET OUT OF THE BUSINESS OF TIFFS. UM I THINK THEY SERVED A PURPOSE AT THE TIME, AND IT'S ONE OF THOSE THINGS THAT AGAIN WE MADE. WE MADE DECISIONS BECAUSE WE HAD TO, AND THIS WAS THE BEST OPTION THAT WE HAVE AVAILABLE, BUT UM, I'M NOT GOING TO PROFESS THAT I'M AS WELL VERSED ON TIFFS AND MILLAGE IS AND THINGS THAT'S THE PREVIOUS SPEAKERS ARE, BUT IT WOULD SEEM TO ME THAT, UM I HAVE A FAIR AMOUNT OF BUYER'S REMORSE . THE MORE I CATCH UP TO THESE TIPS THAT WE ENACTED AT THE TIME. AND I THINK THE BEST WAY FOR THAT REMORSE TO GO AWAY IS TO ALLOW THESE THINGS TO RUN THEIR COURSE. UM YOU KNOW, WE'RE HALFWAY THROUGH THIS WHEN THERE'S STILL A SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF TIME LEFT ON THIS, I THINK. WOULD YOU SAY 14 YEARS? UM AND THIS IS NOT THE ONLY ONE.

THERE ARE SEVERAL OTHERS. SO UM, UH, I THINK I WOULD BE ALONGSIDE THE OTHER SPEAKERS HERE PREVIOUS TONIGHT THAT THIS SHOULD NOT BE RENEWED. UM LET IT RUN ITS COURSE AND DO WHAT IT WAS INTENDED TO DO AT THE TIME, BUT I THINK IT'S TIME THAT WE MAKE SOME OF THESE OTHER ENTITIES HOLE AND ALLOW THEM TO RECOUP SOME THAT OF THE LOSSES THEY HAVE INCURRED OVER THE LAST 15 YEARS. UM 16 YEARS. I GUESS THE MATH WOULD BE CORRECT AND COULD POSSIBLY STILL BE INCURRING OVER THE NEXT 14. SO IT'S ALL I HAVE FOR THAT. OKAY THANK YOU. JOHN APPRECIATED ANYBODY ELSE THAT WOULD LIKE TO SPEAK ON THIS ITEM? OKAY? I'M SURE COUNCIL WILL CERTAINLY, UM, TAKE ALL OF THE COMMENTS IN CONSIDERATION. IT IS NO TIME FOR COUNCIL UNDER THE OBSERVATIONS OR ANY COMMENTS THAT WE WANT TO DESTIN EIGHT. I DON'T NEED A COUPLE OF COMMENTS. UM. YOU KNOW, I THINK USING TIFFS AS AN INCENTIVE TO BRING IN DEVELOPMENT IS WHERE WE'RE AT AND WHAT WE'VE BEEN USING THEM FOR, AND GIVEN THE DEVELOPMENT AROUND OTHER COMMUNITIES. UM YOU KNOW, WE'RE COMPETING FOR THOSE NEW OPPORTUNITIES. UM I'M NOT SO SURE THAT'S THE SAME SITUATION WE HAVE HERE WHERE THE TIFF IS ALREADY EXISTS, AND WE'RE LOOKING AT, YOU KNOW, EXTENDING IT AN ADDITIONAL 30 YEARS I GIVES ME A LITTLE HEARTBURN FOR THAT. YOU KNOW, JUST BECAUSE THE STATE ALLOWS US TO DO IT DOESN'T MEAN IT'S SOMETHING WE SHOULD TAKE ADVANTAGE OF. SOMETIMES. SO I THINK YOU KNOW, BEFORE WE MAKE OUR DECISION AT THE NEXT MEETING THAT WE REALLY NEED TO TAKE WHAT WAS SAID TONIGHT. UH, AND.

NOODLE IT AROUND, HMM. POOR MRS. GREG DIDN'T KNOW WHAT I WHAT I MEANT WHEN I SAID THAT EARLIER TONIGHT, SO REALLY THINK ABOUT IT, UM, BECAUSE IT DOES HAVE AN EFFECT ON OTHER ENTITIES OTHER THAN JUST THE SCHOOLS SINCE THEY WOULD BE MADE WHOLE. MHM. OKAY ANYBODY ELSE? YOU KNOW, I HEARD A COUPLE OF THINGS TONIGHT. I THINK I WANT TO THINK ABOUT OVER THE NEXT COUPLE OF WEEKS. YOU KNOW, ONE WAS THE THANK THAT THIS GIVES US THE FLEXIBILITY TO MAKE THAT DECISION IN THE FUTURE BECAUSE THIS WINDOW CALLS IS AT THE END OF THE YEAR. IF WE DON'T DO IT NOW, WE DON'T HAVE THAT FLEXIBILITY THAT TO MAKE THAT DECISION. UM I THOUGHT IT WAS INTERESTING TO HEAR THAT THE TRAFFIC INFRASTRUCTURE PLAN IDENTIFIED NEEDS FOR IMPROVEMENT ON DELAWARE AVENUE IN THIS AREA AND COLEMAN'S CROSSING, WHICH ARE ABOUT TWO AREAS OF INFRASTRUCTURE, WHERE TIFF FUNDS COULD BE SPENT. LOOKING IN THE NEXT 10 TO 20 YEARS. I THINK YOU SAID WE'RE IDENTIFYING NEED FOR IMPROVEMENTS. IS THAT RIGHT? YEAH, THAT'S CORRECT. AND THEN YOU KNOW, JUST I KNOW. TIP REVENUE FOR THE WASTEWATER ENTERPRISE FUND. I BELIEVE IT'S 42% OF OUR REVENUE. COMES FROM TEXAS. UM AND. IS THAT? IS THAT RIGHT? THE DEBT SERVICE PAYMENT TO BE CLEAR. SO 42% OF THE DEBT

[01:55:11]

THEN, YOU KNOW. I THINK WE NEED TO KEEP THAT FLEXIBILITY BECAUSE OTHERWISE WE'RE LOOKING AT BIG RATE INCREASES. AND YOU KNOW, I DON'T WANT THAT. I WOULD LIKE TO HAVE THE FLEXIBILITY TO SEE WHAT MAKES SENSE WHEN THAT TIME COMES, YOU KNOW, LET'S UH KEEP OUR OPTIONS OPEN. MAYBE BUT YOU KNOW, I JUST WANT TO LOOK AT THIS OVER THE NEXT COUPLE OF WEEKS, TRYING TO UNDERSTAND THE FINANCES OF THAT. UM AND WHAT THE IMPACT IS BECAUSE YOU KNOW THAT BED. DEBT IS FOR 50 YEARS.

WE'VE GOT A 50 YEARS DEBT SERVICE. SO IT EXTENDS. WELL BEYOND YOU KNOW, THE RESIDENTIAL TIPS WE'RE GOING TO BE FACING, YOU KNOW. BIG QUESTION. WHEN THESE RESIDENTIAL TIPS AND WHEN THERE IS SUCH A BIG PART OF OUR FUNDING AND THAT'S NOT FAR AWAY THE RESIDENTIAL TIPS I BELIEVE AND IN 2030 TAKE. THAT RIGHT? 36 YEARS AGO, OKAY? SORRY THERE. THE REASON THE DATES FLUCTUATED IS ALL DEPENDENT WHEN THE FIRST HOME WAS DEVELOPED ON THE DIFFERENT AREN'T 30 YEARS FROM WHEN THEY WERE APPROVED OF SOME OF THEM WERE A COUPLE OF YEARS DOWN THE ROAD. YOU KNOW, I JUST THINK YOU KNOW, I WANT TO KIND OF BALANCE THOSE DIFFERENT THINGS THAT FLEXIBILITY THE TRAFFIC NEEDS. WE HEARD TODAY AND THEN YOU KNOW WHAT? WHAT THE IMPACT MIGHT BE IF WE CLOSE THAT DOOR AND NOT HAVE THAT OPTION AVAILABLE, BUT BUT WE'RE NOT CLOSING THE DOOR ON THE RESIDENTIAL TIFFS. THIS IS JUST THE COMMERCIAL TIFF FOR THE ONLY ONE THAT WE COULD EXPAND. EXTEND WE CANNOT EXTEND THE RESIDENTIAL . SO THIS IS THE ONLY ONE THAT WE HAVE THIS OPPORTUNITY TO EXPAND. UM THE RESIDENTIAL WILL NEVER BE AN OPTION. UM AND YOU KNOW, JUST THE QUESTION OF IS THIS ONE IS IT WORTH? KEEPING THIS ONE OPEN OR NOT. AH BECAUSE OF NOT KNOWING WHAT MIGHT HAPPEN IN THE FUTURE. 00 POINTS. WELL TAKEN. YEAH A LOT OF LOT TO TAKE IN WHEN IT COMES TO ULTIMATELY MAKING THE FINAL DECISION ON THIS, SO ANYBODY ELSE? THE ONLY THE ONLY THING I WOULD LIKE TO SAY IS, IF WE'RE I WOULD LIKE TO SEE THE PROPERTY IS WORTH MORE THAN WHAT THEY CURRENTLY ARE. SO I WOULD LIKE IF WE'RE GOING TO MAKE TIPS, I WANT DESIGN STANDARDS RAISE TO THE VALUES OF THESE PROPERTIES ARE WORTH MORE THAN WHAT THEY CURRENTLY ARE. BECAUSE IF YOU DRIVE DOWN KOMEN'S CROSSING FOR IT BEING NOT AS OLD AS IT IS, IT'S REALLY NOT. IN THE GREATEST SHAPE, SO THAT'S THAT'S MY ISSUE IS THAT IF WE'RE NOT GOING TO IF WE DON'T WANT TO RAISE IF WE DON'T WANT TO GO AFTER RESIDENTS FOR TAXES THAN IT'S TIME THAT WE START IMPLEMENTING HIGHER DESIGN AND LANDSCAPE STANDARDS FOR COMMERCIAL STRUCTURES, SO THE VALUE OVERALL IS WORTH MORE. AND THAT'S THAT WOULD BE MY ISSUE. MOVING FORWARD WITH TIPS. IT'S TIME THAT WE AS A CITY DO MORE TO CREATE A STRONGER DESIGN STANDARD TO MAKE OUR COMMERCIAL BUILDINGS WORTH MORE IN GENERAL, SO THAT'S ALL I HAVE TO SAY. OKAY? ALREADY. SO. THAT'S A DEMOCRATIC SYSTEM AND THIS WILL BE BACK FOR THIRD READING TITLE ONLY ON NOVEMBER. THE 27TH. READY ORDINANCE. D SECOND

[Ord. D]

[02:00:03]

[Ord. E]

UH THERE'S NO COMMENTS OR AMENDMENTS ON THIS. THIS ORDINANCE. ALREADY SO THIS WILL BE BACK FOR THIRD HEALING TITLE ONLY ON NOVEMBER. THE 27TH ON THIS COUNCIL HAS ANY QUESTIONS

[Ord. F]

UNFORTUNATELY, THAT THAT WASN'T POSSIBLE. WE. YEAH, I THINK I MENTIONED THIS, UM, OBVIOUSLY MENTIONED FINANCE COMMITTEE BUT WE DID. WE DID HAVE A GOOD OCTOBER. WE WITH INCOME TAXES.

WE JUST DIDN'T CLOSE THAT GAP AS MUCH AS I WOULD HAVE HOPED. I MENTIONED WORK SESSION. I'M SORRY. THAT'S RIGHT. DISCUSSED THIS BRIEFLY. SO WE'RE SO THE BUDGET I HAVE IN FRONT OF YOU. I DIDN'T MAKE A LOT OF SMALL CHANGES. I WENT AHEAD. I HAD THESE UPDATED NUMBERS. I'M LIKE, WHY NOT? PARTICULARLY AS IT APPLIES TO YOU KNOW THIS PAYROLL LINE ITEMS AND ALL THOSE LARGER REVENUE LINE ITEMS, SO I YES, I PROBABLY COULD HAVE CREATED REDLINE VERSION AND WENT THROUGH, BUT I MEAN, IT WOULD HAVE BEEN A LOT OF RED LINES. SO FRANKLY, IT WAS JUST EASIER TO PRINT THE ENTIRETY OF THE OPERATING BUDGET ALONG WITH ITS REPRESENTATIVE ORDINANCES FOR YOU ALSO IN THAT PACKET OR THE DETAILED CAPITAL SPENDING WORKSHEETS, WHICH I PROMISED YOU THIS EVENING. UM. I'M SURE IT WAS VERY DIFFICULT FOR THEM SO DIFFICULT. TONY COULDN'T EVEN STAY AND HEAR THIS. BUT YOU KNOW EACH I T FIRE AND POLICE EACH SPENDING CONSIDERABLE AMOUNT OF TIME GOING THROUGH THEIR CAPITAL BUDGETS AND PRIORITIZING THEM. YOU'LL SEE THAT NOT ONLY DO THEY GET THEIR CAPITAL BUDGETS WITHIN THE APPROPRIATIONS THAT ARE ON THE CAPITAL BUDGET. BUT THEY PRIORITIZE THEM IN COMMON TO TEARS LIKE HERE'S OBVIOUSLY THE ONES WE WANT TO DO IN 24, AND THEN HERE'S THE ONES WE WOULD WANT TO DO IN 24 IF MORE MONEY WAS MADE AVAILABLE, AND I SHADED THOSE GREEN MOVED THEM TO THE 2025 YEAR. FOR THE SAKE OF HOW THEY ADD UP, BUT I SHADED HIM GREEN SO YOU COULD NOTICE WHICH ONES EACH OF THE DEPARTMENT HEADS NOTED, WOULD BE THE FIRST ONES UP. IF MORE FUNDS WERE MADE AVAILABLE, SO THAT'S ON THE CAPITAL DETAILED LINES, BUT IN THE END WHEN IT COMES TO THE OPERATING BUDGET YOU CAN STILL SEE WE'RE COMING OUT. WE'RE GOING OUT ABOUT 6.4 MILLION, WHICH, IF YOU TAKE WHAT I EXPECT WILL BE OUR YEAR END ENCUMBRANCES WOULD HAVE US GOING OUT THE END OF THE YEAR AT 6 MILLION, SO OBVIOUSLY THAT'S THE BARE MINIMUM THAT WE WANT TO GO OUT AT, UM IN ORDER TO MAKE SURE THAT HAPPENED. I DID ADJUST ONCE

[02:05:04]

HOPEFULLY, BUT I'M JUST SAYING THAT I WANT YOU TO TAKE SPECIAL NOTE AND THOSE FUNDS, ESPECIALLY WATER AND SO ARE ARE DOING OKAY? UM, THAT'S CURRENTLY CONSTRUCTED. ANY QUESTIONS FOR BREAD. THIS IS JUST ACADEMY. YEAH. MHM. OKAY ANY CITIZENS COMMENTS 60. SO WE DO HAVE THE MOTION TO AMEND LEGISLATION AS IT WAS PRESENTED TO COUNCIL. HOWEVER I DO WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT THIS IS NOT THE FINAL. WE STILL HAVE AN OPPORTUNITY TO GET WITH YOU. YEAH. IF IN CASE WE DO SEE SOMETHING, OBVIOUSLY, YES. I MEAN, I'M JUST SAYING THAT IT IS NOT MY INTENT TO BRING YOU ANY FURTHER CHANGES. AT SOME POINT. I JUST HAVE TO PUT THIS IN STONE AS IT IS ON MY COMPUTER, OR IT'S LITERALLY LIKE THE SNAKE THAT EATS ITSELF. I WILL JUST CONTINUE TO REFINE THESE NUMBERS EVERY SINGLE DAY. I WILL PULL INCOME TAX NUMBERS TOMORROW, AND I'LL BE LIKE, OH, I CAN ADD ANOTHER $1000 TO THAT. THAT'S WHAT I WOULD END UP DOING SO I'M TELLING MYSELF THIS IS IT BUT OBVIOUSLY YES. US COUNCIL WILL CONTINUE TO HAVE TIME TO REVIEW IT. UM, YOU HAVE PLENTY OF TIME, OF COURSE TO MEET WITH ME AND MOVE FORWARD WITH ANY SORT OF CHANGES. YOU POTENTIALLY WANT TO PRESENT IT AT THE THIRD READING. I DO REMEMBER AT ONE TIME THERE WAS AN ALMOST 5000 PAGE. FEDERAL AID. UM THAT WAS PRESENTED AND THE MEMBERS COULD NOT SEE IT UNTIL THEY VOTED ON IT. SO THAT'S NOT THE CASE IN THIS PARTICULAR, UM, CIRCUMSTANCES AND OBVIOUSLY THE PACKAGE THAT YOU HAVE IN FRONT OF YOU. I JUST WANT TO REITERATE EXCEPT WITH HIS, UH, THE CAPITAL ASSET DETAIL IS EXACTLY WHAT I EMAILED YOU LAST WEEK, SO THERE WERE NO CHANGES BETWEEN LAST WEEK AND TODAY. AND RIGHT NOW WE ARE STILL ON E THE CAPITAL BUDGET, CORRECT? NO NO, NO, NO, NO. THIS IS THE OPERATING OKAY. FIRE SAID THERE WERE NO CHANGES IN THE CAPITAL BUDGET. SO THIS IS WHERE , UM, I'VE MET WITH TERRY AND BRAD AND DO HAVE A COUPLE OF AMENDMENTS I WOULD LIKE TO PROPOSED AS WELL, EVEN THOUGH THEY'RE NOT IN WHAT BRAD JUST GAVE YOU NUMBER ONE. THERE IS NO MONEY ALLOTTED FOR A COMPREHENSIVE PLAN. 2018 WAS THE LAST TIME WE DID A COMPREHENSIVE PLAN WHICH GOING INTO 2024. THAT MEANS THAT SIX YEARS OLD UM, WITH THREE NEW COUNCIL MEMBERS COMING ON. AH AND IT TAKES ABOUT A YEAR TO DO A COMPREHENSIVE PLAN. WE WOULD BE ENACTING IT IN 2025, WHICH IS SEVEN YEARS FROM THE LAST TIME IT WAS ENACTED, AND WITH ALL OF THE ITEMS GOING ON AROUND CENTRAL OHIO, ESPECIALLY INTEL, ET CETERA, I THINK, AND THE COUNTY IS ALSO DOING THEIR COMPREHENSIVE PLAN RIGHT NOW. I THINK ADDING FUNDS INTO THE BUDGET FOR A COMPREHENSIVE PLAN TO BE COMPLETED IN 24 WOULD BE A VERY GOOD IDEA, PROBABLY IN THE 50 TO $100,000 RANGE, SO I WOULD I WOULD LIKE TO PUT $100,000 INTO THE BUDGET. UM TO FOR THE CONFERENCE OF PLAYING, UM AND THEN. I WOULD ALSO LIKE TO GO TO PAGE 16, WHICH IS THE. PARKS ARE

[02:10:10]

AH, REVENUE, BUT I WOULD LIKE TO PULL IT OUT OF THE BUDGET AND LOOK AT WHERE WE'RE AT THROUGH THE END OF THE YEAR. AND IF THERE IS MONEY AVAILABLE FOR A SPECIAL COMMUNITY EVENT WEEK LONG WEEKEND LONG EVENT AT THAT BACK IN KIND OF LIKE WHAT WE DO, CURRENTLY WITH OUR PAVING, WE DON'T PUT IT IN THE BUDGET, IF THE PREVIOUS YEAR WAS UM, SUFFICIENT TO COVER THE EXPENSE AND WE ADDED IN SO I WOULD LIKE TO MAKE THOSE TWO AMENDMENTS. TO THE AMENDED BUDGET TO THE AMELIA BUDGETS. WELL, YEAH, I FIGURED WE COULD JUST DO ALL THREE OF THEM THE SAME TIME, SAME TIME, BUT, YEAH, I DIDN'T MAKE ANY CHANGES TO THOSE LINE ITEMS IN THE AMENDED BUDGET THAT YOU HAVE IN FRONT OF YOU. SO OBVIOUSLY MAKING THOSE CHANGES ISN'T MAKING AN AMENDMENT TO THE AMENDMENT, RIGHT? YEAH, THAT'S RIGHT. THAT DOES OUR AMENDMENTS TO THE ORIGINAL BUDGET. AND JUST AS A QUICK ANALYSIS OF WHAT JR SUGGESTED, UM, YOU KNOW, WE WERE TO PUT $100,000 INTO A COMPREHENSIVE PLAN. YOU KNOW, THAT WOULD BE A GENERAL FUND EXPENSE, BUT TO JR'S POINT 265,000 THAT EXPENSE IN THE CITY REC FUND. IS BEING PRIMARILY OFFSET BY A TRANSFER FROM THE GENERAL FUND, SO THOSE YOU WOULD EFFECTIVELY OFFSET ACTUALLY, YOU WOULD TECHNICALLY ADD IF YOU JUST DID THOSE TWO THINGS BY THEMSELVES, AS SUGGESTED YOU WOULD ACTUALLY ADD $65,000 65,000 MORE DOLLARS TO THE GENERAL FUNDING IMBALANCE. CHANNEL 10 YEARS? YEAH, MHM.

OKAY UM, ANYBODY ELSE THAT HAS TAKEN A VIEW OF THE BUDGET? ARE THERE ANY CHANGES THAT ANYBODY ELSE SINCE WE JUST HAD A QUESTION ON THE SPECIAL EVENT? UM THE DISCUSSION ABOUT PULLING IT OUT AND THEN LOOKING AT THE END OF THE YEAR BEGINNING OF THE YEAR AT THE END OF THE END OF THIS YEAR FOR JANUARY OF NEXT YEAR. FIRST WEEK OR TWO OF JANUARY, UM I GUESS THE QUESTION IS JUST THE TIMING AS FAR AS YOU KNOW WHAT THAT DUE TO ANY EVENT PLANNING? CAN WE STILL PUT AN EVENT FORWARD IN THAT AMOUNT OF TIME? AND THEN THE SECOND QUESTION IS LIKE THE. HERE.

WE'RE JUST TALKING ABOUT THE EXPENSE SIDE. BUT CAN WE ALSO LOOK AT THE REVENUE SIDE? YOU KNOW WHAT? WHAT CAN WE EXPECT IN TERMS OF LIKE, IF WE'RE GONNA RIDES AND SO FORTH, LIKE SELLING WRISTBANDS WHAT WE MIGHT EXPECT FROM THE REVENUE SIDE ARE THOSE THINGS THAT WE COULD HAVE ANSWERED BY THE BEGINNING OF JANUARY AND DECEMBER. YEAH I MEAN WITHOUT TO BE HONEST WITH YOU. I WASN'T ENTIRELY SURE WHAT KIND OF EVENT WE WERE CONSIDERING SO I DIDN'T NECESSARILY FEEL COMFORTABLE GUESSING ON ANY SORT OF REVENUE. BUT I WILL SAY IF THE INTENT WERE TO MAKE IT SOMETHING VERY SIMILAR TO THE BICENTENNIAL EVENT, THEN OBVIOUSLY I COULD GO BACK TO THAT YEAR THAT'S IMMUNE IS AND I COULD EASILY TELL HOW MUCH REVENUE WE EARN FROM THAT EVENT AND YOU KNOW, COME UP WITH WHAT I FEEL WOULD BE AN EDUCATED GUESS ON THAT. I THINK THAT YEAR WE DIDN'T CHARGE FOR THE RISES OR BICENTENNIAL. OKAY NO OTHER COMMUNITIES WHEN THEY DO LIKE AN ANNUAL EVENT, THEY'LL THEY'LL LUCKILY UH WHAT WILL YOUR UNLUCKILY I HAVE BEEN A INVOLVED IN THIS TYPE OF EVENT IS WAS PRESIDENT OF THE BIGGEST, ER, FAIRFIELD, FOURTH OF JULY COMMITTEE. AND WE ACTUALLY DID RIDES. WE DID VENDORS. UM AND WE USE THE AND WE CHARGE FOR PARKING AND WE USED ALL THAT, OF COURSE TO FINANCE THE FIREWORKS. AND SO I AM FAMILIAR WITH THE PERCENTAGES THAT COME FROM THOSE CONTRACTS AND SO FORTH AND COULD ONCE AGAIN DO MY BEST TO MAKE WHAT I WOULD CONSIDER A EDUCATED, REASONABLE GUESTS. ALL THOSE REVENUES. YOU KNOW THE ADMINISTRATION CAN SUPPORT THESE ADJUSTMENTS. UNDERSTAND YOU KNOW , WE PUT THE BUDGET TOGETHER WITH THE THOUGHTS THAT WE'RE TAKING INTO ACCOUNT THE THOUGHTS OF SOME OF THE COUNCIL MEMBERS ON WHAT WE WANTED TO BRING FORTH THE ONLY THING THAT I COULD SAY THAT MAY POTENTIALLY AFFECTED A

[02:15:02]

UM AND SO WE CAN SUPPORT THESE ADJUSTMENTS. IF COUNSEL WANTS TO DO THIS, OKAY. I GUESS I'M JUST A QUESTION ON THE TIMING OF THE FUNDING FOR THE COMPREHENSIVE PLANES. UPDATE WITH AT ALL IF THE PLANE IS TO IMPLEMENTED IN 2025, I THINK YOU SAID WOULD IT ALL BE FUNDED IN 2024? WOULD THAT BE SPLIT BETWEEN THE NEXT TWO YEARS? I THINK IT'D BE FUNDED IN 2024 TO SIGN ONE CONTRACT WITH THE CONSULTANT IN 2024. YEAH AND IT MIGHT BE DONE BY THE END OF 24. I JUST IT NORMALLY TAKES ABOUT NINE MONTHS , DOESN'T IT? YEAH AND THE TIMING OF PUTTING TOGETHER A GROUP OF PEOPLE TO UPDATE AND AGAIN, I THINK IT'S I THINK IT'S A GOOD MOVE. AND I THINK THERE'S ALSO A QUESTION WHETHER WE CAN JUST UPDATE OUR PREVIOUS WINNER OR WHETHER WE NEED TO GO THROUGH A WHOLE FULL BLOWN BRAND NEW ONE ERIC MENTIONED EARLIER TONIGHT. THE HOUSING STUDY THAT YOU GUYS ARE MAYBE POTENTIALLY LOOKING AT TAKING ON NEXT YEAR. IF THAT IS THE CASE, I WOULD PROBABLY LIKE TO HAVE THEM IN TANDEM. SO. AND WHAT'S THE TIMING OF THE HOUSING STUDY? THERE'S NO TIME SET. WE JUST HAVE THE INITIAL CONVERSATIONS. BUT WE'VE TALKED A COUPLE CONSULTANTS ABOUT DOING ONE. WE CAN WORK TOGETHER AND COME BACK WITH IDEA WITH KYLE AND COME BACK TO SOME SUGGESTIONS. SO AT THIS POINT, WE CAN SAY THAT WE HAVE IDENTIFIED TWO POTENTIAL AMENDMENTS. IS THERE ANYTHING ELSE THAT IS IN THE CURRENT BUDGET THAT WE DO THAT WE COULD POTENTIALLY HERE TONIGHT AS WELL. JUST. JUST TO PIGGYBACK ON WHAT THEY'RE SAYING. I WOULD BE SURPRISED IF THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN HAD DRASTIC CHANGES IN IT FROM WHAT IS ALREADY WAS STATED NORMALLY, WHEN YOU LOOK AT THE UPTOWN RIVER IZATION PLAN THAT ALL OF THAT IS PRETTY MUCH WHERE THE WORLD'S GOING THE BIGGEST ISSUE WITH THE CITY OF MARY'S VOTE AS OUR ZONING CODE. IT'S TOO MANY LOOSE ENDS. THAT'S THE BIGGEST PROBLEM WITH OUR WITH WITH HOWARD. DEVELOPING. THERE REALLY ISN'T STRICT POLICIES IN OUR ZONING CODE, FOR EVERYTHING IS PRETTY MUCH OPEN ENDED WHEN IT COMES TO DEVELOPMENT WHEN IT COMES TO EVERYTHING, SO I'M OKAY WITH THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN, BUT I DON'T THINK THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN IS GOING TO CHANGE MUCH, BUT I DO THINK THE ZONING CODE IS WHAT NEEDS TO CHANGE. WHEN DID WE UPDATE THE ZONING CODE? WHAT YEAR WAS THAT? A COUPLE OF YEARS AGO. MAYBE YEAH, SO MAYBE ONCE WE COMPLETE THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAYING, WE CAN CONSIDER THAT INTO 2025 IF WE WANT AS A AS A REVISIT IF WE WANT TO DO, WE WENT THROUGH A PRETTY EXTENSIVE REZONING. IT WAS ABOUT A TWO YEAR PROCESS WITH A LOT OF PUBLIC INPUT, AND THAT'S IN WHAT WE HAVE NOW IS WHERE WE LANDED. YEAH SO THEN ALSO WITH THE EVENT. UM YOU KNOW, I THINK THAT IF WE ARE GOING TO CREATE AN EVENT IN THE UPTOWN THERE NEEDS TO BE A COMMITTEE TOGETHER OF A SMALL BUSINESS OWNER. KAREN ELLEN, UM, THE WORD COUNCIL MEMBER AND ANOTHER COUNCIL MEMBER, A RESIDENT, AND WE THEME IT CALLED FOUNDER'S DAY WE PUT SOME MONEY INTO IT. WE RESEARCH IT. WE GET WE GET, UM YOU KNOW, MAYBE OTHER BUSINESSES IN THE TOWN TO HELP SPONSOR AN EVENT, SO IT'S NOT JUST US DOING IT, BUT THERE'S SOME THOUGHT PROCESS BEHIND IT.

SO YOU KNOW, I DON'T LIKE THE IDEA OF JUST BECAUSE WE TAKE IT OUT. WE'RE GOING TO AUTOMATICALLY DO ONE NEXT YEAR. IF OUR DECISION IS TO TAKE THE MONEY OUT FOR AN EVENT THAT I THINK NOW IS THE TIME THAT WE PUT A COMMITTEE TOGETHER TO START THINKING ABOUT HOW IT EVENT SHOULD LOOK NEXT YEAR OR TAG ALONG LIKE WHAT YOU GUYS WERE SAYING ALREADY AS AN EVENT AND JUST TAG ALONG WITH THAT EVENT. SO THAT WAS THOSE ARE JUST MY MM HMM. STATEMENTS BUT FORMING A COMMITTEE NOW WOULD BE SOMEWHAT DIFFICULT BECAUSE FIRST WE DON'T KNOW HOW MUCH MONEY MAYBE IN THE BUDGET AND THEN AGAIN WITH A CHANGE OF SOME OF THE PEOPLE THAT ARE SITTING

[02:20:05]

THEN I WOULD ENTERTAIN LOCAL MR BURBEY. YES YES. YES MR CARPENTER. YES MRS GROWTH? YES, MR BERGER. SIX YES, WONDERFUL. WE'VE ALREADY MADE SOME GOOD HEALTHY WITH SOME OF THE ITEMS THAT WE HAVE. HEY THEN WE CONTINUE TO MOVE ON TO ORDINANCE G. WE HAVE TO. WE HAVE TO HAVE A SECOND READING PUBLIC HEARING. SECOND PLACE HASN'T MEANT IT. OKAY COMES BACK. DOES IT? GET AWAY? THAT DOESN'T GET AWAY WITH IT THAT EASY, SO, UM I NEED EMOTION, NO MOTION. WE'RE JUST BACK AT SECOND READING OF THE AMENDED BUDGET, AND YOU WOULD ASK FOR COUNSEL, COUNSEL AND CITIZEN COMMENTS. OKAY ALREADY, SO ANY PRODUCT COUNCIL COMMENTS ANY PUT A CITIZEN'S COMMENTS.

PLACES. OKAY ALREADY DONE. JUST WANTED. I JUST WANTED TO TAKE THE TIME TO PIGGYBACK ON WHAT MR BURBEY WAS TALKING ABOUT. WHEN THE PROCLAMATION SO, FOR INSTANCE, JUST SOME LOCAL FACTS ABOUT SMALL BUSINESS SATURDAY FOR UPTOWN, SO PLUM HOME WAS THE FIRST TO SIGN UP UPTOWN MEMORIES VILLA AS A NEIGHBORHOOD CHAMPION IN 2018 IN 2019, THE CHAMBER STARTED TO SIGN SIGN UP SMALL BUSINESSES ON AN ANNUAL BASIS. NEIGHBORHOOD CHAMPION SUPPORTS A SMALL BUSINESS OWNERS THERE IN THEIR COMMUNITY BY SHARING FREE RESOURCES FOR SMALL BUSINESSES TO USE TO SUPPORT SMALL BUSINESS SATURDAY. THIS THIS THIS WAS THE FIRST YEAR THE PASSPORT EVENT AND THE FIRST YEAR WE HAD A UPTOWN WHY'D EVENT TO SUPPORT SMALL BUSINESSES IN THE UPTOWN? SINCE 2018. WE HAVE DISTRIBUTED 101 PER RISES FOR THE PASSPORT. PAULINE. UM. IT'S THE WINNERS WE HAVE. WE HAVE PASSED OUT. 100 SCRATCH OFF TICKETS FOR INSTANT WHEN HORIZONS FOR SMALL BUSINESS SATURDAY AND PASSED OUT TOTE BAGS. THE UPTOWN BUSINESSES HAVE COLLECTIVELY PUT IN AND 250 PLUS VOLUNTEER HOURS, INCLUDING MANNING THE SMALL BUSINESS SATURDAY TENT, WHICH I WILL TELL YOU IS NOT ALWAYS THE BEST, WHETHER DAYS FOR THAT SPECIAL DAY. WE HAVE THEY HAVE COMPLETELY BEEN IN ONLINE SOCIAL MEDIA DRIVEN AWARENESS TO THE COMMUNITY ITSELF. BINGO AND 2020 . THERE WAS AN AMAZING PARTICIPATION IN THAT EVEN WHEN EVERYTHING WAS GOING ON DURING THAT YEAR. EACH YEAR. WE CONTINUE TO SEE HUNDREDS OF PEOPLE COMING TO THE UPTOWN FOR ALL THE EVENTS THAT THE CITY CURRENTLY DOES HERE IN THE CITY, AND THIS IS A VERY WE ALWAYS MUSHROOM. MEMBER THAT SMALL BUSINESS SATURDAY IS A HUGE OPPORTUNITY, UM FOR SMALL BUSINESSES, ESPECIALLY DURING THE HUB HOLIDAY SEASON, SO WE WANT TO ENCOURAGE EVERYONE TO SHOP SMALL AND THINK SMALL FIRST WHEN PICKING UP YOUR GIFTS FOR YOUR LOVED ONES. THANK YOU. THANK YOU, MR NASH. YOU KNOW, HERE IN MARYSVILLE AND UNION COUNTY OR HISTORY IS DEFINITELY AGRICULTURAL BASED, AND IT'S GREAT TO CELEBRATE AND RECOGNIZE THE CHILDREN HERE SHOULDN'T SHOULDN'T SAY CHILDREN THE YOUNG MEN AND WOMEN THAT WERE HERE TODAY, UM STUDENTS FOR WHAT THEY'VE ACCOMPLISHED AND AT THE NATIONAL LEVEL AND IT'S GREAT TO SEE THAT F F A IS STILL GOING VERY WELL GOING VERY STRONG HERE IN IN MARYSVILLE AND UNION COUNTY, SO CONGRATULATIONS TO THEM. ALSO CONGRATULATIONS TO THE. FOR SUCCESSFUL COUNCIL MEMBERS. WE WILL MISS THOSE OF YOU THAT WE'RE ON THE WRONG END

[02:30:09]

THERE'S A PORTA MORNING STAR AND RESTORATION AT THE CORNER OF THE PARK. THEY ARRIVED AROUND THE START OF THE CONSTRUCTION SEASON WHEN THEY WERE DOING SIDEWALKS. IT'S STILL SITTING THERE, AND I KNOW IT'S PROBABLY NOT OURS, BUT I DON'T KNOW WHY IT'S THERE. WE'LL LOOK INTO IT AND GET IT REMOVED IS THAT IT'S LIKE JUST RIGHT ON THE CORNER. THAT'S IT READY? THANK YOU. MR PRESIDENT.

I WOULD LIKE TO SAY CONGRATULATIONS TO EVERYONE WHO WON AN ELECTION AND IN THE GENERAL ELECTION, NOT NOT TOO LONG AGO. I THINK I HAVE A PRETTY GOOD IDEA ABOUT WHAT I WOULD LIKE TO SAY, ALTHOUGH I DON'T THINK IT'S QUITE APPROPRIATE FOR ME TO SEE IT SO UM, I'LL WAIT TILL THE NEXT MEETING. OKAY HAVE A GOOD NIGHT. THANK YOU. OKAY THE ONE THE ONE THING THAT I WAS REALLY IMPRESSED WITH THAT THE F F A WAS ABLE TO RECOGNIZE AND IDENTIFY WHICH I THINK IS STILL A SHORTAGE HERE IN THE CITY OF MARYSVILLE. YEAH PIGMENT, LEE.

WE HAVE CHURCHES. WE HAVE A DIFFERENT ORGANIZATIONS THAT I HOLDING YOUR FOOT. BUT MOST OF THE TIME YOU GET TO EITHER THE SPAGHETTI OR YOU GET THE NOODLES OR YOU GET ALL THE ITEMS SAID ARE NONPERISHABLE. YEAH BUT THOSE ARE NECESSARY. THOSE DO NOT NECESSARILY GIVE YOU THE ALL THE MUSICIAN THAT PEOPLE NEED. AND THE V. THEY HAD THE WHAT THEY CALL PROTEIN DONATION, WHICH CONSISTS PREDOMINANTLY OF MEAT AND PLANT BASED I HAVE THE GOOD FORTUNE EVERY FIRST THURSDAY MORNING. TAIWANESE WORKS WITH THE TRINITY CHURCH AND WE HAVE ABOUT 150 PEOPLE COMING IN, AND THEY PUT BANK OUT OF COLUMBUS, DEEPENING IN ALL SORTS OF DIFFERENT ITEMS THAT ARE AVAILABLE AT THAT TIME. YEAH BUT THOSE ARE ITEMS THAT ARE NEEDED FOR FAMILIES TO GET A FULL MEAL BECAUSE IT'S DIFFICULT TO LIVE OUT OF THE CAN WITH SPAGHETTIOS AND ALL SORTS OF DIFFERENT THINGS THAT YOU FIND IN THERE AND I DO NOW KNOW THAT THERE ARE SEVERAL DIFFERENT LOCATIONS. OUR LADY OF LOOTERS ALSO WORKS WITH THE FOOD BANK. THEY HAVE AN AFTERNOON DISTRIBUTION ON A DIFFERENT DATE . TRINITY DOES THE ONCE WE ONCE A MONTH OVER AT AT THE CHURCH, AND THOSE ARE ALL IMPORTANT THINGS THAT NORMALLY WE DON'T EVEN THINK ABOUT. BUT IT IS A TREMENDOUS SERVICE, AND I THINK IT'S EVEN BEEN EXTENDED NOW TO RICHWOOD, BUT THOSE ARE REALLY IMPORTANT. MM PARTS OF THE QUALITY OF LIFE FOR PEOPLE THAT ARE DEPENDENT ON THOSE TYPES OF FOODS OR THOSE TYPES OF PLACES TO GO TO. SO ANY TIME THAT IF PEOPLE FEEL GENEROUS, UM THEY CAN ALSO GO TO THE DIFFERENT FOOD BANKS THAT WE HAVE AND MAKE A MONITOR DONATION BECAUSE AND WITH THE REQUEST TO PROVIDE AND THEN THEY GO TODAY BEFORE TO GET FRESH FOODS OR GET PAST VEGETABLES OR ANYTHING ELSE, THAT THEY COMPLEMENT THE TYPE OF MEALS THAT PEOPLE GET SO AGAIN.

IT DOES DEFINITELY SERVE A VERY IMPORTANT PART OF OUR COMMUNITY. SO WITH THAT, THANK YOU ALL VERY MUCH. THANK YOU. I'VE GOT TO MAKE A MOTION TO ADJOURN TO EXECUTIVE SESSION TO CONSIDER CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION RELATED TO THE SPECIFIC BUSINESS STRATEGY OF AN APPLICANT FOR ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT ASSISTANCE THAT NEEDS OR THAT INVOLVES PUBLIC INFRASTRUCTURE IMPROVEMENTS, AND THEN WE NEED TO CALL FOR THE SECOND NEEDS FOR MR PRESIDENT. SECOND THE MOTION SECOND, THEN WE GO TO THE VILLAGE CALLED MR REEMS, MR CARPENTER. MRS GROWTH? YES MR BERGER. MISTER BURBEY, ROUSH.
