[00:05:07]
VISIT A OKAY. YOU COULD.HELLO ADMINISTRATOR. THIS IS THE ROBE ISHAQI, WOULD YOU STATE YOUR NAME? HOW ARE YOU? GOOD. WOULD YOU STATE YOUR NAME AND ADDRESS FOR THE RECORD, PLEASE? YES ANGELA STREETER, 5914 GRANT RUN A STATE STRIVE GROVE CITY. AND SO I AM ON GREAT RENNES STATES, DR. OBVIOUSLY SO OUR BACKYARD BACKS UP TO THE NEW HOUSINGS THERE, SO I JUST HAVE A COUPLE QUESTIONS. ONE IS ABOUT THE MAINTENANCE OF THESE FENCES. UM I KNOW THAT GROSS CITY WE HAD SOME COUNCIL CONVERSATION ABOUT FENCES BEFORE, AND, UM I THINK IT GOT TABLED, BUT I WOULD LIKE TO ENTERTAIN OF THOUGHT OF THE MAINTENANCE OF THESE FENCES AS WELL. UM AND THEN I GUESS BEFORE YOU GO ON, I THINK YES. THESE ARE GOING TO MISS TRAITOR. IF I'M NOT MISTAKEN. THESE ARE PRIVATE PROPERTY ON PRIVATE PROPERTY. SO WILL BE THE LANDOWNERS HAVE RESPONSIBILITY TO MAINTAIN THE FENCE. THAT'S CORRECT. COUNCIL MEMBER SHOCK? YES. YES I UNDERSTAND. THAT SEEMS TO ME OBVIOUS, BUT I KNOW WHEN WE WERE HAVING FENCE CONVERSATIONS PREVIOUSLY, THERE WAS A LOT OF CONCERN ABOUT HAVING SOMETHING IN WRITING THAT THAT SAYS THAT YOU KNOW THAT THEY'RE GOING TO BE MAINTAINED. UM SO I'M NOT SURE IF THAT'S SOMETHING CHICKENS SYDOR AND THAT I'M GOING TO. I'M GOING TO ASK MR ROSS TO COME UP ON HERE. ON THERE. MR ROSS ARE NORMAL.
WHEN WE HAVE ZONING TEXT IN THAT THE NORMAL WHAT? ANYTHING THAT FALLS BACK ON THE LANDOWNER ON THERE. WE HANDLED THROUGH THE BUILDING DEPARTMENT WITH THE ZONE PROCESS REVERTS BACK TO OUR STANDARD ADMINISTRATIVE PROCESS. HE WANTS TO PUT A FENCE UP TO PULL PERMIT THROUGH THE BONE DIVISION. AND ANY TYPE OF VIOLATION MEANS WISE OR WAS TORN DOWN WILL BE GOING THROUGH THE BUILDING VISION AS WELL. SO AIRLINES GOING THROUGH THE BLOODY VISION, ADMINISTRATIVE FASHION AND IS THAT ONE REASON WHY WOULD WAS ELIMINATED BECAUSE OF THE PAINTING AND THE POSSIBILITY OF IT WAS A MAINTENANCE CONCERNED MAINTENANCE CONCERN, OKAY. SO MISTREATED DEATHS HANDLED HER BUILDING DEPARTMENT. ANY COMPLAINTS THAT WOULD BE FOR THE INDIVIDUAL JUST AS ANY OTHER PROPERTY OWNER ON THERE? ON THAT. OKAY. ALRIGHT. OKAY NEXT MONTH. YEAH I HAVE A COUPLE QUESTIONS. SO UM, SO ON THE STONE AND BRICK, UM, SO IF I WANTED TO JUST FILE SOME BRICKS UP, AND THAT'S 48 INCHES HIGH IN MY BACKYARD AND CALL THAT OFFENSE, UM I JUST WASN'T SURE ON THE BRICK LIKE HOW YOU WOULD HAVE A BRICK OR STONE FENCE.
DEFENSE NG NOT ONLY WILL BE SUBJECT TO THE ZONING TEXT AND HOPEFULLY THIS AMENDMENT, BUT IT IS SUBJECT TO APPROVAL BY A DESIGN REVIEW BOARD CONTROLLED BY THE APPLICABLE HOMEOWNERS ASSOCIATION. PEOPLE WHO WANT FENCING WILL BE REQUIRED TO SUBMIT THOSE ELEVATIONS TO SHOW WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE, AND IT WILL HAVE TO GO THROUGH THAT APPROVAL PROCESS, SO JUST A PILE OF BRICKS WOULD NOT BE PERMITTED UNDER THE APPLICABLE DEED RESTRICTIONS THAT HAVE BEEN PROVIDED TO ZONING STAFF AS WELL. YEAH, YEAH. WE ALSO CALL ON OUR ATTORNEY. YES SIR. AND ALSO UNDER OUR BUILDING CODE IN APPLICATION WOULD HAVE TO BE MADE TO PUT A FENCE IN WITH THE PERMIT, AT WHICH POINT WE WOULD LOOK AT HOW IT'S CONSTRUCTED THE MANNER IN WHICH IT IS TO MAKE SURE IT'S SAFE. IT HAS PROPER FOOTINGS, ETCETERA, SO YOU WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO GET AWAY WITH A PILE OF WHATEVER WITHOUT. DATA OKAY, I THOUGHT MAKES SENSE. THANK YOU. AND THEN LASTLY, UM, I ASSUME OR JUST WANT TO REINFORCE THAT THE FENCE WOULD NOT GO INTO THE NO DISTURB ZONE THAT'S IN BETWEEN THE BACK OF OUR PROPERTIES TO THE BACK OF THE NEW DIVISION. THAT'S CORRECT . IT'S IN THE PROPERTY. IT HAS TO BE ON THE PROPERTY OWNERS ACTUAL LAND ON THERE TO BE TO HAVE THE FENCE ON THEIR PROPERTY. THAT'S CORRECT. OK THANK YOU. ALL RIGHT. THANKS THAT'S ALL MY QUESTIONS. THANK YOU. THANK YOU VERY DISSIPATING. ANY OTHER QUESTIONS FROM THE PUBLIC. WE HAVE ANOTHER ONE. PUNISHMENT. HELLO. HELLO HI, MISS CONSULATE. THIS IS RUBBISH

. RUBY SHOT KEY, WHICH YOU STATE YOUR NAME AND ADDRESS FOR THE RECORD, PLEASE. HE HAD HIS KLEINSCHMIDT 5972 GREAT, RIGHT ESTATES DRIVING GROVE CITY. OKAY. AND WHAT IS YOUR QUESTION? I THINK MISTREATED MAY HAVE HIT UPON SOME OF THEM. I WAS CONCERNED ABOUT THE ALSO THE BRICK WALL OR STONE WALL BEING BUILT BECAUSE IT SAID THAT YOU CAN HAVE A WALL OR A FENCE. OKAY SO I'M CONCERNED ABOUT A WALL. LET ME GET OVER TO THAT, WOULD YOU? CARE TO ANSWER THAT, OR DO YOU KNOW THAT OR KYLE? THE INTENTION IS WOULD BE STRICTLY FOR FENCING, PARTICULARLY AT THAT 48 INCH HEIGHT. IT WOULD NOT BE A WALL. BUT OKAY, WELL, THE LANGUAGE SAYS FENCES OR WALLS SHALL BE CONSTRUCTED OF VINYL. ROD IRELAND ARE HIGHLY HIGH QUALITY ALUMINUM, STONE OR BREAK SO IT DOES HAVE BOTH WORDS IN THEIR EXPENSES OR WALLS. MR SMITH? YES, SIR. IF I MAY THE LINE RIGHT BEFORE THAT SPECIFICALLY AUTHORIZES FENCING . IT DOESN'T SAY THE WALLS SO THEREFORE THE WALLS WOULD BE PROBLEMATIC FROM BUILDING PERSPECTIVE BECAUSE WE HAVE BUILDING SETBACKS. OBVIOUSLY, YOU START BUILDING WALLS. YOU HAVE TO DEAL WITH ALL THE SETBACKS SO IT WOULD JUST BE THE FENCING IS, YOU KNOW THAT IS PERMITTED AND IT WOULD NOT BE A WALL. OKAY WELL, I JUST WANTED TO REITERATE THAT BECAUSE WALLS IS MENTIONED MORE THAN ONCE IN THAT PARAGRAPH. I THINK IT WOULD BE WISE IF WE ELIMINATE THE WORD WALL. THAT BE ACCEPTABLE TO THE APPLICANT. OKAY, ALL RIGHT. UM AND THEN THIS CONGRESSMAN, GO AHEAD AND FINISH YOUR QUESTIONS . AND THEN WE'LL TAKE CARE OF THIS, UH, WITH THE WORD WALL IN HERE. UM THE OTHER QUESTION I HAD, I THINK WAS ANSWERED BY YOUR COMMENTS TO MYSTERY OR I WAS CONCERNED ABOUT IT. THE FENCING COMING IN CLOSE CONTACT WITH THE NO. DISTURBED ZONE BECAUSE THAT'S DIRECTLY BEHIND MY HOUSE AS WELL. YES. YES IT'S AH, IT WOULD BE LIMITED TO PRIVATE. WE'VE ALREADY ANSWERED THAT IS GOING TO BE ON THE OLD HOMEOWNERS LAND ITSELF. FRANK ALL RIGHT, OKAY. THAT'S WHAT I GOT. THANK YOU. THANK YOU FOR PARTICIPATING ON HERE. ALL RIGHT, LET'S TAKE CARE OF THAT IN HERE. UM, MAKE AMENDMENTS TO ELIMINATE THE WORD WALL ON EXHIBIT A PAGE FOUR LANGUAGE ON THERE IN SECTION G. SECOND. MR WHOLE. YES THIS IS HELP. YES MR SHARKEY? YES MR CIGARETTES? YES, MR BARRY? YES? OKAY?

[Ordinance C-05-22 Amend Ordinance C-55-20, an ordinance to accept the Plat for Hidden Meadows and declare an emergency.]
SAID IN CAUCUS, THAT'S KIND OF UNUSUAL FOR LANCE TO HAVE EMERGENCY MEASURES, BUT WE'VE GOT TWO OF THEM TONIGHT, JUST BEING THE FIRST ONE, AND IT'S KIND OF A UNIQUE SITUATION THAT WE DON'T RUN INTO VERY OFTEN. ON HERE. ORDINANCE C 05 22 AN ORDINANCE TO AMEND COORDINATES C 55 20. AN ORDINANCE TO ACCEPT THE PLAN OF HIDDEN MEADOWS AND DECLARE AN EMERGENCY. IT'S LIKE BEFORE THIS C 55 20 APPROVED THE PLAN OF HIDDEN MEADOWS UNDER THE OWNER'S HARRISBURG PIKE INVESTORS LLC. AND THE PROPERTY WAS SOLD TO NEW OWNERS PRIOR TO REGISTERING THE PLANT. THE NEW OWNERS HIDDEN MEADOWS, OHIO L. C. THE FRANKLIN CUTTING RECORDER'S OFFICE WILL ACCEPT A PLANT THAT WE APPROVED. UNDER 55 20 UNDER THE NEW WILL NOT ACCEPT APPLIED UNDER THE NEW NAME AND THEREFORE THE CONSTRUCTION CANNOT START UNTIL THE PLANT IS RECORDED. SECTION ONE OF THIS ORDINANCE, AMENDS THE NAME AND REPLACES THE PLANT ON FILE, SO IT MEANT TO ADD THE CURRENT OWNERS SO THAT THE PLANT CAN BE FILED AND COULD CRACK AND CONSTRUCTION CAN START ON THEIR QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS FROM COUNCIL. THEY NOT ONLY FROM THE PUBLIC. IS REALLY JUST A TECHNICAL CORRECTION ON HERE. SORT OF SAID HIS FIRST READING AND I MOVED WITH THE RULES OF COUNCIL BE SUSPENDED IN THE WAITING PERIOD WAIVED OKAY?

THIS IS ANOTHER EMERGENCY[Ordinance C-06-22 Appropriate a 0.569 acre Fee Simple Right-Of-Way, without limitation of existing access rights, from Patricia A. Young at 4348 Harrisburg Pike, for the public purpose of constructing roadway improvements and declaring an emergency.]
MEASURES. C ORDINANCE C 06 22 IN ORDER TO APPROPRIATE A 0.569 ACRE FEE SIMPLE RIGHT OF WAY. WE PROBABLY LIMITATIONS OF EXISTING ACCESS RIGHTS FROM PATRICIA A. YOUNG 43 48 HARRISBURG PIKE FOR THE PUBLIC PURPOSE OF CONSTRUCTING ROADWAY IMPROVEMENTS AND DECLARING EMERGENCY MR SMITH, WOULD YOU EXPLAIN? THIS IS A RATHER COMPLEX ONE IN WHICH YOU EXPLAIN TO ME. TURN THAT ON. SORRY UM, AS I INDICATED IN CAUCUS, THIS IS A ROAD IMPROVEMENT PROJECT THAT INVOLVED NINE PROPERTY OWNERS THERE ALONG HARRISBURG PIKE. WE ARE DOING IMPROVEMENTS OF THE ROADWAY, ADDING A TURN MY TURN LANE TO MAKE FOR OBVIOUSLY SAFER VEHICULAR MOVEMENTS IN THE AREA. ALSO ADDRESSING SOME PEDESTRIAN SAFETY ISSUES ALONG THE RIGHT OF WAY THERE. UM OUT OF THE NINE PROPERTY OWNERS. WE WERE ABLE TO SETTLE WITH EIGHT OF THE PROPERTY OWNERS, THE ONE REMAINING PROPERTY OWNER YOU HAVE HERE. THIS IS A VERY UNIQUE SITUATION. SO IF WE NEED JUST OVER A HALF AN ACRE, AND AS YOU CAN SEE, IT'S HARD TO TELL FROM THIS, BUT IF YOU LOOK AT IT, IT'S ACTUALLY 40 FT. WIDE. THAT GOES THE LENGTH OF THAT. NOW JUST TO BE CLEAR THAT 40 FT IS TO THE CENTER OF THE ROADWAY, SO IT ISN'T 40 ADDITIONAL FEET. FROM THE EXISTING BROADWAY THAT'S MEASURED FROM THE CENTER OF THE ROADWAY, AND OBVIOUSLY, THE ROAD IMPROVEMENTS ARE NOT GOING TO GO THAT WHOLE 40 FT. YOU KNOW THE TERM LINES AND EVERYTHING. USUALLY YOU'RE ADDING ABOUT 8 TO 10. FT. I DON'T REMEMBER THE EXACT NUMBER HERE. MM IN THIS INSTANCE, I KNOW SOME OF YOU MAY HAVE SHOOK YOUR HEAD WHEN YOU SAW THE PRICE , BUT WE DID OFFER $300, WHICH MOST OF YOU ARE GOING TO BE LIKE THAT'S CRAZY LOW. HOWEVER, THE REASON WE DID SO IS THIS IS ROAD THAT IS SUBJECT TO A STATE HIGHWAYS. MINTS OF THE PROPERTY OWNER HAS NO ABILITY TO DO ANYTHING ON THIS PROPERTY PERIOD EVER. UNDER THE LAW BECAUSE NOTHING CAN HAPPEN ON THIS ROOM.WE ONLY HAVE TO PAY WHAT'S CALLED A MINIMUS AMOUNT. NORMALLY THE COURT TO TELL US THIS LAND IS WORTH $1 BECAUSE THEY CAN'T DO ANYTHING WITH IT. WE OFFERED $300, WHICH IS THE STATE MINIMUM THAT YOU CAN UNDER NO DOUBT PROJECT UM THE REASON WE FIND OURSELVES HERE IS WE DO HAVE A NEGOTIATOR THAT WAS WORKING ON THIS PROJECT ON BEHALF OF THE CITY. THE NEGOTIATOR REACHED AN IMPASSE WITH THE YOUNG'S, UM AND FINALLY WAS NOT ABLE TO DIDN'T HEAR BACK FROM THEM SO PRIOR TO COMING HERE BEFORE YOU ALL I DID TRY TO REACH OUT THE YOUNGEST PERSONALLY TO TALK TO HIM ABOUT THIS TO SEE WHETHER OR NOT THERE WAS SOME AGREEMENT WE COULD MAKE, AND I DID NOT HEAR BACK FROM THEM. UNFORTUNATELY WE ARE RUNNING UP AGAINST THE TIMELINE WHICH UTILITY RELOCATION AND BIDDING THAT WE NEED TO ACQUIRE THIS PROPERTY IMMEDIATELY TO MOVE FORWARD WITH THIS PROJECT, AND I KNOW YOU DON'T LIKE EMERGENCIES. I KNOW YOU DON'T LIKE EMINENT DOMAIN, BUT THIS TRULY IS A SITUATION WHERE WE HAVE ONE PROPERTY OF OWNER THAT WOULD HOLD UP A PROJECT THAT FRANKLY WOULD BENEFIT ALL OF THE TRAVELING PUBLIC THERE ON 60 TO DEMONSTRATE ARRIVES SO WE WOULD LIKE YOUR PERMISSION TO MOVE FORWARD WITH THIS HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS YOU MAY HAVE QUESTIONS. ANY QUESTIONS FROM THE PUBLIC. WOULD RATHER WOULD YOU PLEASE COME TO THE PODIUM? WOULD YOU PLEASE COME TO THE PODIUM STATE YOUR NAME AND ADDRESS AND RECORD. ROGER BURKETT. 5905 GRASSLEY, ROME.

LEFT THAT RIGHT AWAY IN YOUNG'S NAME.YEAH AND IF I MAY I HAVEN'T PULLED UP AND I KNOW YOU CAN'T SEE THIS VERY WELL. BUT THE PARCEL IS AN ARROW SHAPED, WHEREAS MR KELLER DID INDICATE WHEN THEY SOLD OFF THE OTHER LOTS ON THE LEFT SIDE OF THIS THAT THEY DID RETAIN THAT STRIP OF LAND IN THE YOUNG'S NAME. SO YES, THIS IS A VERY GOOFY SHAPED PEACEABLY. SO IT DIDN'T SHOW THEM. IT DIDN'T SELL THE RIGHT AWAY AND THE OTHER PROPERTY THAT'S CORRECT, SIR. AND JUST FOR EVERYBODY IN THE AUDIENCE.

ACCORDING TO THE COUNTY AUDITOR'S OFFICE, PROPERTY TAX GIVEAWAYS IN GROSS CITY TOTAL MORE THAN $16 MILLION A YEAR. THE ADMINISTRATION AND COUNCIL ARE TO BE COMMENDED FOR PROVIDING SOME SUBSIDIES TO THE SCHOOL SYSTEM LIBRARY IN FLORIDA APARTMENT TO MAKE UP FOR SOME OF THE LOST REVENUE. BUT THESE SUBSIDIES REPRESENT ONLY A FRACTION OF THE $16 MILLION LOST EVERY SINGLE YEAR TO TAX GIVEAWAYS. COUNCILOR AND HOW CAN I AREN'T THEY ONLY ONES WHO EXPRESSED CONCERNS ABOUT THESE ISSUES. IN 2000 AND 16. HILLIARD VOTERS. CITYWIDE VOTE BY A 2 TO 1 MARGIN APPROVED THEIR CHARTER AMENDMENT BANNING TIPS FOR HOUSING PROJECTS. THE FOLLOWING YEAR. THE OHIO GENERAL ASSEMBLY OVERWHELMING YOU OVERWHELMINGLY UNANIMOUSLY IN THE SENATE AND BY AN 85 TO 7 MARGIN IN THE HOUSE. WHEN DO YOU FIND THAT KIND OF AGREEMENT AND PUT MUCH REPUBLICANS AND DEMOCRATS VOTED TO EXEMPT TOWNSHIP FIRE DEPARTMENTS FROM TIFFS OVER THE PAST DECADE. THE COUNTY COMMISSIONERS HAVE FORMALLY OBJECTED TO AT LEAST 10 TIFFS.
SEVERAL YEARS AGO, THE COLUMBUS DISPATCH LABELED A TAX GIVEAWAY TO HIGH END HOUSING PROJECT.
MUCH LIKE THE ONE GIVEN BY GROWTH CITY TO PINNACLE, AS QUOTE ANOTHER GIFT FROM CITY HALL TO WELCOME IT. DEVELOPERS. I'VE WRITTEN SUGGESTIONS FOR MORE BALANCED APPROACH. I THINK MISS KELLY GAVE GAVE COPIES OF THOSE TO YOU. AT THE VERY LEAST, I HOPE THESE SUGGESTIONS WILL SPUR A PUBLIC DISCUSSION ABOUT THE NEED FOR MORE INFORMATION. PRO AM CALM INFORMATION. THE ADMINISTRATION HAS SHOWN IT IS FULLY CAPABLE OF PRODUCING THE TYPE OF COST BENEFIT ANALYSIS I'M SUGGESTING. IT RECENTLY DISTRIBUTED A TWO PAGE DOCUMENT HEADLINE QUOTE. GROUP CITY CR A SUCCESS. IN ESSENCE, THIS DOCUMENT IS A COST BENEFIT ANALYSIS LIKE TO SEE THE SAME THING ON FUTURE TAX INCENTIVE PROPOSALS. THANK YOU. THANK YOU, MR RUTH. APPRECIATE YOU. WE ALSO HAVE MR THINK IT'S COREY. IS IT, EDWARDS? PORTING WHEN YOU ARRIVE UP AT THE PODIUM THERE IF YOU'D GIVE YOUR FULL NAME AND ADDRESS. MY NAME IS COREY EDWARDS AND I LIVE AT 2 TO 88 TOURNAMENT WAY.
LIKE TO DISCUSS THE EXPANSION OF THE PINNACLE PARK DRIVE TO JOIN TWO TOURNAMENT ROAD. TOURNAMENT
[00:40:01]
WAY. THOSE OF US WHO LIVE AT THE TAIL END OR A LITTLE SLOW ON THE UPTAKE, AND WE DIDN'T CATCH ON.THIS IS COMING AND TOLD JUST A LITTLE BIT AGO, SO IT MAY BE TOO LATE NOW, BUT WE STILL HAVE A COUPLE OF OUR CONCERNS, AT LEAST EXPRESSED. THE FIRST OF WHICH IS THAT WE FEEL THAT WILL PERMIT A HIGH SPEED AVENUE OUT OF THE SUBDIVISION. AND MAYBE ENCOURAGED, INCREASE AND BREAKING ENTERING VANDALISM AND ROBBERY. AS WE'RE SEEING THE FRONT END OF OUR SUBDIVISION WHERE PINNACLE WEST JOINS TO BUCKEYE PARKWAY. TO INCLUDE A CARJACKING AT GUNPOINT EARLIER OR LATER LAST YEAR. BYE, EVERYBODY THAT HIGH SPEED EGRESS TO HOULTON, WHICH ALSO MANAGES TO PROVIDE AN EGRESS AWAY FROM LOCAL LAW ENFORCEMENT, WHICH IS TYPICALLY THE FIREHOUSE. WE FEEL THAT WE ARE ENDANGERING. OUR CHILDREN AT THE TAIL END OF OUR SUBDIVISION. WE ALREADY HAVE A QUARTER OF A MILE DRAGSTRIP THAT SECTIONAL TOURNAMENT WAY. IT'S PRETTY STRAIGHT. IS NOT A LOT OF IMPEDIMENT. ACCORDING TO THE DRAWING, IT LOOKS LIKE IT'S ONE MINER S TURN LEADING STRAIGHT OUT TO HOLD HIM. GIVING. IT'S ABOUT THREE QUARTERS OF A MILE DRAGSTRIP. I GUESS WITH AMBER GOING THAT'S GOING ON CURRENTLY. AND THE CORPS OF ENGINEERS FOR FOUR PERMIT. THAT'S AN INTERMEDIATE STATUS. IT APPEARS THAT PROJECT IS PROCEEDING. SO I GUESS MY QUESTION OF OUR CONCERN IS, ARE THERE ANY IMPEDIMENTS PLANNED? TWO PER TO PROHIBIT THAT HIGH SPEED ACTIVITY ON THAT ROAD OR ARE THERE ANY PLANS TO TERMINATE OR PROVIDE A BARRIER TO ENTRY TO THE SUBDIVISION FROM THE PARK? FROM THE FROM COLTON. I MEAN THAT THE PRESIDENT TIME THERE IS NOT. I THINK THAT'S THAT'S CERTAINLY A SEPARATE DISCUSSION IN TERMS SHOULD THAT ROADWAY BE CONNECTED AT POLICE IN TERMS OF THE ADMINISTRATION BELIEVES THAT ANOTHER INGRESS EGRESS FROM THAT SUBDIVISION IS CERTAINLY FROM THE SAFETY STANDPOINT WARRANTED, FOR EXAMPLE, WHEN WE HAD THE TORNADO , AND WHOEVER WROTE MANY OF THE RESIDENTS COULDN'T GET IN THEIR THEIR SUBDIVISIONS IN TERMS OF A COUPLE. CONDOMINIUM PROJECT, SO I THE ROADWAY WILL BE CONNECTED. I THINK THE DISCUSSION IN TERMS DO WE WANT TO LIMIT VEHICULAR ACCESS THROUGH THERE, I THINK IS ANOTHER DISCUSSION THAT WE COULD HAVE, BUT I THINK JUST IN GOOD PLANNING AND SAFETY, I THINK IT'S A GOOD THING THAT DOES CONNECT INDIVIDUALS HAVE THE ABILITY TO AT LEAST GET YOUR CARS OR EMERGENCY VEHICLES IN THERE AND OUT OF THERE, SO I THINK THAT AGAIN. I THINK THAT'S A DISCUSSION THAT WE THAT WE CAN HAVE. MR BARROSO IS A PROFESSION . I AM A SAFETY PROFESSIONAL. THIS IS WHAT I DO IN MY FULL TIME CAREER. SO I ACKNOWLEDGE THE FACT THAT EMERGENCY ACCESS VIA EMS FIRE POLICE IS A BENEFIT TO THE BACK INTO THE DIVISION. I THINK THAT THOSE OF US WHO LIVE THERE FEEL THAT IT MAY BE MORE BENEFICIAL TO LIMIT OR RESTRICT THE EGRESS TO THOSE VEHICLES. WE FEEL THAT EVEN THOUGH WE LIVE THERE, WE DO NOT NECESSARILY BENEFIT. STRONGLY FROM THAT EXIT, AND WE FEEL THE DETRIMENT IS HIGHER. BUT THAT'S SOMETHING COULD BE DONE TO PERMIT THE SERVICES WITHOUT HINDERING.
PERSONAL SAFETY. AND AGAIN, I THINK IN TERMS OF IF YOU LOOK BACK AT THE HISTORY OF THAT DEVELOPMENT, OF COURSE, THAT AREA WAS SUPPOSED TO HAVE ANOTHER 400 RESIDENTS IN THERE, THEN THE CITY OF GROWTH CITY. I DECIDED TO BUY THAT PROPERTY FOR PARK, WHICH IS CERTAINLY WELL NEEDED IN THAT AREA. SO AGAIN, I THINK WE CAN NO DISCUSSION IN TERMS OF SHOULD HERBIE INGRESS EGRESS? I WE CERTAINLY HAVE THESE DISCUSSIONS WHENEVER YOU HAVE EXISTING NEIGHBORHOODS AND THERE'S DEAD IN STREETS AND. I UNDERSTAND. I UNDERSTAND WHAT YOU'RE SAYING. BUT AGAIN, I THINK IN TERMS OF THAT THAT ABILITY TO HAVING GUEST EGRESS AND MAYBE IT'S MAYBE WE LOOK AT IT ON A TEMPORARY BASIS TO SEE IF THERE IS ANY NEGATIVE ASPECTS OF HAVING THAT TRANSPORTATION AROUND HAVING EGRESS AND INGRESS THROUGH THERE, SO. I KNOW THAT WE WOULD CERTAINLY LIKE TO PARTICIPATE IN THAT PROCESS. IF THAT'S POSSIBLE, ABSOLUTELY. THANK YOU FOR YOUR NAME AND ADDRESS ON THE SHEET, THEN? YES IT IS. OKAY THANK YOU, MR. THANK YOU FOR YOUR COMMENTS. MR PRESIDENT. I WAS VISITING MY SON AND SARASOTA, FLORIDA AND WITH WE'RE DRIVING AROUND, I REALLY NOTICED SOMETHING UNIQUE FOR DOWN TO THESE. FOR COMPARED TO GROSS CITY. THEY HAVE SPEED HUMPS, EVEN IN THEIR REGULAR ROADS, SUCH AS, LIKE SOUTHWEST BOULEVARD. THINGS LIKE THAT. AND SINCE THIS IS A PARK ROAD AND SPEED IS PROBABLY AN ISSUE FOR MANY OF THE RESIDENTS THROUGH THERE THAT DOES GET CONNECTED OR NOT. UM I THINK WE SHOULD START LOOKING INTO DOING SOME OF THIS.
TRAFFIC CALMING WAYS OF DOING THINGS AND THEY'RE NOT THERE AND I'VE NOTICED UP IN PARTS OF COLUMBUS. THEY'RE USING THAT INTO SOME OF THE NEIGHBORHOODS AND THAT I THINK WE STAYED TO START LOOKING AT DOING SOME THINGS WITH SOME OF THE SPEED HUMPS AND WAYS TO SLOW TRAFFIC
[00:45:01]
DOWN THROUGH STRAIGHT AREAS, AND SINCE THAT IS GOING TO BE A PART AND PEOPLE WILL BE PLAYING AND FRISBEES WILL GO UP THE ROAD AND THE BALL WILL GET HIT UP THE ROAD AND THINGS LIKE THAT. I THINK IT'S ESSENTIAL THAT WE MAKE SURE THAT TRAFFIC IS COMB. THANK YOU. JUST ONE POINT I WILL TELL YOU I HAVE HAD RECENTLY WITH THE SNOW SPEED. HUMPS AND SNOWPLOWS ARE A BAD COMBINATION AND I HAVE HAD SEVERAL PROBLEMS RECENTLY. LUCKILY IN FLORIDA, WHERE YOU VISIT THEM, THEY DON'T HAVE SNOW. THAT'S TRUE. I'VE HAD PLOWED VERSUS SPEED HUNT VERY RECENTLY AND ONE TWICE IN ONE COMMUNITY AND IT'S BAD. IN THE OTHER THING. I MEAN, I AGREE. WE NEED TO DO SOMETHING THERE TO CONTROL IT, BUT I DON'T KNOW IF IT'S A GATE THAT HAS AN ALERT SYSTEM THAT GOES UP. BUT I DO KNOW THAT YOU KNOW, SPEED BUMPS ARE NOT NECESSARILY GOOD FOR THE ELDERLY EITHER. WHEN THEY'RE AN EMERGENCY SQUAD, RIGHT? YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN? MY MOTHER WISHES TAKEN IN IN LAST WEEK, AND IT'S THOSE BUMPS AND E M S ARE NOT A GOOD THING. THEY DON'T DO IT LIKE JUST A BUMP ITSELF. THEY PUT LIKE US A PLATFORM LIKE YOU GO UP ONE SIDE. YOU'VE DONE CALLING THE TECHNICAL ON THE TABLE TABLE. IS IT? SPEED TABLE SPEED TABLE, OKAY. I DIDN'T KNOW THAT PROPER TERM, BUT IT WAS UNIQUE TO ME. THEY'RE SO WELL. SO THE END RESULT OF THIS IS WE NEED TO DISCUSS. I JUST WANTED TO MENTIONED I WE HAD A FLURRY OF ACTIVITY ON THIS CONVERSATION , AND I WENT BACK TO MY EMAIL IN AUGUST AND SEPTEMBER OF LAST YEAR, AND I THINK WE WERE PUTTING IT OUT TO BID AT THAT TIME, AND I THINK WE ALL HEARD FROM RESIDENTS ABOUT THEY'RE CONCERNED. AND NOW YOU KNOW, THE LAND IS BEING CLEARED IN THE PAST WEEKS TIME, SO WE SAW ANOTHER FLURRY OF ACTIVITY. SO AND I JUST HAVE CONTINUED TO ENCOURAGE PEOPLE TO VOICE THEIR CONCERNS. AND I ALSO WANTED TO MAKE SURE THAT WE TAKE THE TIME TO HEAR THOSE CONCERNS AND BASICALLY COME TO THE BEST POSSIBLE OUTCOME. SO I JUST WANTED TO PUT THAT OUT THERE. THANK YOU FOR BEING HERE TODAY.I THINK IT'S IMPORTANT. UM I THINK THERE ARE ALREADY SOME SAFETY CONCERNS ON THE STREET.
AND OBVIOUSLY THERE'S A HEIGHTENED AWARENESS WHEN YOU ALREADY HAVE CONCERNS TO NOW WHAT WHAT? COMING OUR WAY NOW, SO THANK YOU, EVERYONE. AND THAT LEAVES US TO OUR LEAD PERFORMER TONIGHT, MR ANDY FOR. GOOD. THANK YOU, SIR. THANK YOU, SIR. SO EVEN THOUGH I'LL STATE MY NAME AND ADDRESS AND REFER THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR OF HARDER GROVE CITY, 3378. PARK STREET.
HI SUE EVERYBODY. I THOUGHT ABOUT THE FORMAT FOR THIS EVENING. AND I WANT TO THANK THANK YOU VERY MUCH TIME RECEIVED ME TO LISTEN TO MY POTENTIAL BABBLING HERE, BUT, UM, IF IT HELPS YOU, ANDY, YOU CAN TAKE OFF THE MASTER WITHIN GREAT DISTANCE FROM EVERYBODY SE EMAIL TO THIS AFTERNOON TO TAKE A LOOK AT THIS AND RATHER THAN PRETENDING WE'RE ALL IN KINDERGARTEN AND GOING THROUGH THESE AGAIN AND HAVING THE MEETING, READ THOSE TO YOU. I THOUGHT IT WOULD JUST OPEN UP REAL QUICK TO ANY QUESTIONS THAT YOU MAY OR MAY NOT HAVE ON THOSE FOUR. I TRIED TO FOLLOW MR HOLT'S FORMAT. THE BEST I COULD . UNFORTUNATELY CERTAIN THINGS DIDN'T APPLY TO US AS A SMALLER ORGANIZATION. YOU KNOW, WE'RE NOT FLUSH WITH A LOT OF FUNDS, AND SO THINGS ARE A LITTLE TIGHTER FOR US. AND WE KEEP THINGS KIND OF. AS CHEAP AS POSSIBLE IF YOU WILL PROVIDE THE MOST VALUE FOR THE DOLLAR GOING FORWARD, I DO HAVE A SMALL STATEMENT. THERE'S NO QUESTIONS OR AS WE GO THROUGH THESE IF YOU'D LIKE, AND JUST FOR THE PUBLIC'S KNOWLEDGE, THE DOCUMENTS THAT HAVE BEEN HANDED OUT THE COUNCIL ARE AVAILABLE THROUGH PUBLIC RECORDS REQUESTS OR YOU CAN COME SEE ME PERSONALLY, I'M GLAD TO GIVE THEM TO YOU AS WELL. SAVE YOU THE TROUBLE OF FILLING OUT THAT RECORDS REQUEST. BUT JUST A QUICK I'LL DO A QUICK OVERVIEW, YOU KNOW AND LOOKING AT. WE'VE BEEN VERY FORTUNATE. IT'S CITY HAS BEEN VERY VERY MUCH ABLE TO WORK WITH US OVER THE YEARS. WE'VE HAD SOME ONE YEAR AGREEMENTS. WE'VE HAD SOME THREE YEAR AGREEMENTS BACK AND FORTH. WE'RE CURRENTLY IN A ONE YEAR AGREEMENT FOR THE 65,000. AND THAT WAS JUST RECENTLY DONE BY THE ADMINISTRATION AND MY BOARD.
BUT THIS IS KIND OF. FOR LACK OF BETTER TERM STATUS QUO FOR US NOW WE'VE BEEN DOING THIS FOR 12 YEARS. AND WE'VE BEEN VERY FORTUNATE WITH THE CITIES HAVE BEEN ABLE TO HELP US THROUGHOUT
[00:50:04]
THOSE YEARS WITH THIS GRANT. AS I STATED IN QUESTION, WANTS ONE OF THE THINGS THAT WE DID STRIKE TRY TO STRIVE FOR THE MAIN STREET PROGRAM, WHICH IS A THIRD OF THE PUBLIC FUNDING. AS YOU SEE A BUYER OF OUR BUDGET THAT WAS TURNED IN WITH THE AGREEMENT. THAT IS 36. AND SO IT IS ONE THIRD OF OUR ENTIRE BUDGET. POTENTIALLY THEN, AS I ANSWERED SOME OF THE OTHER QUESTIONS OBVIOUSLY, A REVENUE STREAM IS DEPENDENT UPON NOT ONLY THE GRAND, WHICH COVERS ARE GAY. TODAY, OPERATIONS ARE MONTHLY COST. SUCH AS PAYROLL AND SOME OF THE THINGS WE'VE WE HAVE A STORAGE UNIT AND SO FORTH COVERS THOSE COSTS. BUT DOES COVER SOME OF THE UPFRONT MARKETING COSTS FOR SEVERAL OF THE EVENTS THAT WE HAVE. WE'LL START HERE AND MAYBE IN JUNE AS WELL. SO. I'M UP DOING QUESTIONS TO THOSE FOUR QUESTIONS. ANDY THE WHEN IT COMES TO THE PARK ITSELF THAT YOU'RE USING NOW, IS IT MEETING YOUR NEEDS? SO FAR, RADIOS AND OBVIOUSLY, WITH ANY EVENT WE'VE WATCHED ON THE WINE FESTIVAL GROW FROM. 10 YEARS AGO . PETE VENDOR, EIGHT WINERIES AND, UH 36 VENDORS TO 22 WINERIES AND A LITTLE OVER 100 VENDORS AND SO THAT AMERICAN TIN USE TO FLOURISH. AND WE THINK THAT IT WILL CONTINUE TO GROW BUT SO FAR WITH HIS MEETING OUR NEEDS AND OBVIOUSLY WITH OUR OTHER SMALLER EVENTS. IT IS DEFINITELY A MEETING THOSE NEEDS AND HAS ROOM FOR EXPANSION. THE JUST AS ANOTHER FOLLOW UP QUESTION. IS THERE ANYTHING THAT YOU CAN. I MEAN, WE'RE GOING TO BE TALKING ABOUT A WHOLE VARIETY OF THINGS DURING OUR ROUNDTABLE DISCUSSION ON THE 12 AND EVERYTHING. IS THERE ANYTHING AMENITY OR ANYTHING LIKE THAT? WOULD HELP YOU IN THAT AREA. I MEAN, DO YOU HAVE ELECTRIC WHERE YOU NEED IT TO BE? YOU HAVE LIGHTING WHERE YOU NEEDED TO BE. YOU KNOW THAT TYPE OF THING, OR YEAH, I THINK WITH AND LOOKING AT THE CAPITAL IMPROVEMENTS. PROJECT LIST THAT'S PASSED THAT WAS PASSED THIS YEAR. IS ONE OF THOSE THINGS AS ELECTRIC WOULD BE A HUGE HELP AND SO WORKING WITH MS SUTHERLAND WITH THE PARKS IN IRAQ AND OUR SERVICEMEN , SURE, SERVICE SUPERINTENDENT, MR WEBER. I THINK THAT WE CAN COME UP WITH THE BIBLE PLAN THAT WOULD WORK FOR NOT ONLY OUR ORGANIZATION. BUT OTHER ORGANIZATIONS WHERE THE ENTITIES WITH WONDER POTENTIAL USE THAT PROPERTY. YOU KNOW, AS I HAVE ANOTHER HAT AS SITTING ON THE CURRENT LIBRARY BOARD. THAT WE ARE LIBRARY. YOUTH SERVICES USE UTILIZES THAT PROPERTY AS WELL. AND I KNOW THAT THEY HAVE BEEN TALKS WITH MS SUTHERLAND TO CONTINUE TO UTILIZE THOSE SPACE. AND ACTUALLY KIND OF IMPROVE UPON SOME OF THE SERVICES WE'VE BEEN OFFERING. THE LIBRARY'S BEEN OFFERING, AND YOU GROW THAT THOSE PROGRAMS AS WELL, SO WE SEE A HUGE POTENTIAL FOR THAT FOR THAT PROPERTY AND THE PROPERTY USED OF OUR BEAUTIES.TO CONTINUE TO KIND OF INCUBATE A LOT OF DIFFERENT THINGS NOT ONLY TO HELP BRING PEOPLE DOWNTOWN TO ALSO TO HAVE PROVIDE THEM A SPACE TO KIND OF SIT AND RELAX. ANDY. I KNOW THAT YOU BRING IN THOUSANDS AND SOMETIMES TENS OF THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE WITH YOUR EVENTS. AND THEN DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA HOW MANY PEOPLE COME IN FROM OUTSIDE GROVE CITY? I KNOW THAT WOULD BE REALLY HARD TO UNDERSTAND OUR TO REALLY GET THAT, BUT IS THERE AN ESTIMATE? OR DO YOU HAVE AN IDEA? SO IN 2019? WE ACTUALLY DID HAVE AN ESTIMATE. WHAT WE DID WAS SPECIFICALLY FOR THE WINE FESTIVAL AND FOR BOURBON. BUT WE DID HAVE AN EXTRA VOLUNTEER. AND SO WE CARD EVERYONE IS YOU ARE ALL WELL KNOWN MAY OR MAY NOT KNOW WHO WERE ATTENDING OUR EVENTS. THAT WE REQUIRE YOU TO SHOW US AN IDEA. AND WHEN WE SEE THAT I'D THAT WE HAVE THAT THIRD PERSON WAS ACTUALLY LOOKING AT THE CITY AND STATE OR JUST THE STATE AT THAT TIME AND SO IN 2019 OUR ATTENDANCE WAS ABOUT WAS JUST UNDER 30% IT KIND OF FELL. IT WAS KIND OF HARD TO REALLY KIND OF CALCULATED. BUT SOMEWHERE BETWEEN 28 30% IS WHAT WE CAME UP WITH. IT WAS OUTSIDE OF GROVE CITY ITSELF OUTSIDE OF CENTRAL OHIO. OUT OF THAT 38% 14% WAS FROM OUT OF STATE WHILE THAT'S AMAZING, BECAUSE YOU CERTAINLY ARE BRINGING PEOPLE TO GROUP CITY. YEAH SLOWLY BUT SURELY WE'RE GETTING THEM DOWN HERE. I JUST HAVE ONE FOLLOW UP QUESTION ABOUT THE PARK ITSELF. YOU KNOW HOW THAT EASTERN PORTIONS ELEVATED A LITTLE BIT. DOES THAT CREATE ANY OBSTACLES FOR YOU? AS FAR AS PEDESTRIANS GETTING? I MEAN, ARE YOU ABLE TO IS THERE A WAY TO GET PEOPLE IN WHEELCHAIRS UP THROUGH THERE OR NOT? SO THERE IS THERE'S CURRENTLY THERE'S AN OLDER, OLDER APPROACH WAY, WHICH WOULD HAVE BEEN A DRIVEWAY TO RESIDENTS ON PARK STREET. THAT IS 11 LOCATION THAT IS SPECIFIC
[00:55:04]
TO THAT PROPERTY EAST OF OUR BEAUTIFUL THERE IS ANOTHER. WHAT WOULD BE AN OLD DRIVEWAY APPROACH ON OUR BEAUTIES, BUT UNFORTUNATELY WITH THAT INCREASE IN ELEVATION BEING SO STEEP IT DOESN'T PROVIDE US THE ABILITY TO BRING VEHICLES IN THROUGH THERE NOW. TRUCK, FOR INSTANCE, COULD BUT A PASSENGER VEHICLE COULD NOT AND SO OBVIOUSLY AND DEFINITELY NOT SOMEONE IN A WHEELCHAIR TOP POINTS WE NEED TO LOOK AT SOME TYPE OF RAMP. OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT TO GET PEOPLE TO GET PEOPLE UP AT UP TO THAT ELEVATION BECAUSE IT'S THREE FT, ISN'T IT? IT'S ROUGHLY THREE FT. FROM THE ROADWAY TO THE TOP OF THE TOP OF THE GRASS. SO YOU KNOW THAT PARTICULAR AREA COULD EASILY HAVE A PATH CUT THROUGH. ON THE ARMY IN THE DIRT AND THEN POTENTIALLY KIND OF GATHERED BACK AND THEN HARD ESCAPED IN IF YOU WANTED TO GO THAT CROWD, AND YOU ALREADY ANSWERED MY QUESTION ABOUT HANDICAPPED ACCESSIBILITY ALONG THE ROAD TRYING TO KEEP HANDICAP ACCESSIBILITY ON ALL THOSE PARKING SPACES FOR THE EVENT ONLY SO YOU KNOW, PEOPLE THAT ARE ELDERLY HAVE A WAY TO GET TO IT. ABSOLUTELY IT'S GREAT SUGGESTION TODAY. MR BERRY, MR. SHOCK YOU IT WAS GREAT, GRACIOUS ENOUGH TO MEET WITH ME TO TALK ABOUT THE SPACE. AND SO ONE OF THE THINGS MR BARRY BROUGHT UP WAS THE HANDICAP PARKING, WHICH THAT'S SOMETHING THAT WE CAN DO TEMPORARY PARKING VIA THE CITY. AND WE DO THAT THROUGH OUR SPECIALTY GRAIN APPLICATION, SO WITH THE WINE AND ART HAD NOT FILED THAT ONE YET, BUT WE WILL ASK FOR THAT. WE COME FORWARD WITH THAT CURRENT APPLICATION HEARING. IT'S COMING WEEKS. YEAH, I JUST I REALLY WANTED TO COMMENT. UM, YOU KNOW, REALLY OVER, PROBABLY THE PAST DECADES. I WOULD SAY. HOW IT IS CHANGED AND HOW THE YOU KNOW THIS LIST EVENTS HAS GOTTEN LONGER AND LONGER AND LONGER, AND HOW SOMETIMES I CAN'T IMAGINE HOW YOU'RE PULLING IT ALL OFF, BUT I RECOGNIZED THROUGH CONVERSATIONS WITH PEOPLE. WHAT A TEAM EFFORT . IT IS IN TERMS OF THE RELATIONSHIPS WITH BUSINESSES DOWN HERE. PARTNERSHIP OF THE CITIGROUP CITY AND I WILL SAY THAT LAST SUMMER, MORE THAN ANY OTHER SUMMER, IT WAS VERY MUCH EVIDENT HOW PEOPLE REALLY WERE WORKING TOGETHER AND HOW ON ON A NIGHT WHERE THERE WAS A CONCERT AT A FOOD TRUCK FESTIVAL AND YOU KNOW THAT THERE WERE SO MANY PEOPLE DOWN HERE SO MANY PEOPLE MOVING AROUND AND THEN THE BEST PIECE OF THAT, TO ME, IS THEN THE CONVERSATION WITH OUR BRICK AND MORTAR BUSINESSES WHO WERE LIKE THESE WERE OUR BIGGEST NIGHTS THAT WE HAVE EVER HAD. AND SO WHERE THAT MIGHT SEEM COUNTERINTUITIVE. WHEN YOU WHEN YOU HAVE ALL THIS KIND OF COMPETITION FOR ACTIVITY DOWN HERE WE HAVE THE DEMAND IT IS DRIVING FOR TRAFFIC IN THE PORTS THAT IS DRIVING SPENDING AND BUILDING AN ECONOMY IN OUR COMMUNITY. SO I JUST WANTED TO GIVE YOU FOR THAT BECAUSE IT REALLY IS GETTING TO BE QUITE SOMETHING DOWN HERE AND PARTICULARLY IN WARM WEATHER MONTHS. I DON'T KNOW WHY I DON'T HAVE ANYTHING GOING TONIGHT. WELL YEAH, CHILLY OUT THERE. NO, HE DON'T KNOW. LIKE YOU SAID.I'M YOU KNOW, IT'S ONE THING. WE'RE VERY, VERY PROUD OF THESE BUSINESSES. ALL OF THEM. WE'VE HAD 100% RETAINING. ACTUALLY, FOR THE LAST THREE YEARS. WE JUST RECENTLY LEARNED THAT WE'RE LOSING ONE BUSINESS. BUT THAT WAS THEIR CHOICE. IT WASN'T FOR THE LACK OF BUSINESS, BUT BUT IT IS SOMETHING TO BE SAID ABOUT OUR LOCAL BUSINESSES TO SURVIVE THE LAST TWO YEARS SPECIFICALLY AND TO HOLD ON TO MAKE PERSONAL SACRIFICES, WHICH I KNOW THAT THEY ALL MADE AND THEN TO YOU FOR US, YOU KNOW TO WORK WITH THEM HAS BEEN A BEYOND THE PLEASURE THERE SO VERY SUPPORTIVE OF WHAT WE DO. THE PARTNERSHIP THAT WE HAVE WITH ONLY THE BUSINESS OWNERS, BUT THE PROPERTY OWNERS AND ALL THE COLLABORATIVE WORK WE DO WITH THE CITY, THE CHAMBER OF THE CBB AS WELL. THOSE PARTNERSHIPS ARE WHAT MAKES US A STRONGER ORGANIZATION. AND WE SEE THAT AND WHERE WE WILL CONTINUE TO WORK TOWARDS CREATING THOSE PARTNERSHIPS TO BE STRONGER AND STRONGER. AND YOU KNOW, IT WILL BE SUCCESSFUL FOR ALL OF US, AND WE'VE SEEN THAT. LAST YEAR WAS A LITTLE BIT OF A LITTLE BIT ABOUT. NOT SO MUCH OF A BASELINE BECAUSE A LOT OF PEOPLE WANTED TO GET OUT OF THE HOUSE AND SO MAYBE ONE OF THOSE, BUT WE WERE. WE WERE VERY, VERY MUCH IMPRESSED WITH THE ATTENDANCE NUMBERS, AND SO WE WORKED THROUGH A FEW HICCUPS LAST YEAR THAT WILL HOPEFULLY GET PAST THIS YEAR. AND WE LOOK FORWARD TO GETTING YOU KNOW, SOME BIGGER AND BETTER CROWDS DOWN HERE AND JUST CONTINUE TO PUSH PEOPLE INTO OUR BRICK AND MORTARS AND MAKE THEM SUCCESSFUL. AND FOR ME ANY IF TONIGHT'S NOT TONIGHT. IT'S OKAY. CAN YOU SPEAK TO, UM , SCULPTURE PROJECT THAT I RECEIVED A CALL FROM FROM WHEN YOUR COLLEAGUES DAY? NO.
SERIOUSLY. I MEAN, I THINK IT'S BEEN IN THE WORKS FOR A LONG TIME, AND I DON'T HAVE MUCH HISTORY BUT MY UNDERSTAND IT HAD WINGS ONE TIME AND NOW MAYBE IT DOESN'T SO. THE HERITAGE TREE
[01:00:04]
WAS A PROJECT THAT ACTUALLY IN OUR PARTNERSHIP WITH THE GROCERY ARTS COUNCIL. THAT CAME ABOUT IN 2011. AND SO IN 2000 AND 12. WE ACTUALLY PUT THE MONEY FORWARD TO HAVE PROFESSIONAL ARTISTS, PROFESSIONAL SCULPTURES, SCULPTURES. BRING US THEIR VERSIONS OF WHAT THEY FELT THE THEME OF THE HERITAGE TREE WOULD BE AND SO WE DID THAT PARTICULAR YEAR IN 2000 AND 12. WE DID SOME JUDGING. WE HAD SOME OUTSIDE, UM PART ARTIST JUDGES THAT LOOKED AT THIS THAT CANADA IS A THIRD, THE BOARD HAD A THIRD VOTE, AND THEN THE PUBLIC HAD A THIRD VOTE AT THE WINE AND ARTS FESTIVAL THAT YEAR. AND SO THE HERITAGE TREE THAT WAS PICKED I DO. CAN'T REMEMBER THE ARTIST'S NAME. WE DIDN'T TELL HIM, DENISE FUN. I'M NOT SURE SHE'S ACTUALLY SHE'S WITH THE ARTS COUNCIL, BUT I DON'T REMEMBER THE ACTUAL ARTIST NAME THAT SCULPTURE. WE WERE AS THE ORGANIZATION. WE RETAIN THE RIGHTS TO THE SCULPTURE THAT POINT BY OFFERING THEM THE CASH PRIZE. WE STARTED WORKING WITH THE ADMINISTRATION ON WHERE CAN WE PUT THIS AND OBVIOUSLY FOR OUR ORGANIZATION WE WANTED TO DOWNTOWN AND SO IT DID BOUNCE AROUND A COUPLE TIMES HERE AND THERE, MR ROBINETTE SEVERAL YEARS AGO. WAS INSTRUMENTAL AND GETTING SOME MONEY SET ASIDE FOR THAT. AS WELL AS THE HISTORIC COMMISSION. EARMARKS OF MONEY FOR THE OTHER HALF TO PAY FOR WORDS AT THAT POINT, THERE HAVE BEEN SOME DISCUSSIONS ABOUT THE OLD LIBRARY SITE. AND SO EVEN WITH THE CONVERSATION THIS AFTERNOON WITH MR REALLY, MR BARRY, THAT WOULD BE AN ADMITTED TO THE POTENTIALLY, WE COULD WORK AROUND JUST BECAUSE OF THE PLACEMENT THAT WAS GOING TO HAPPEN. POTENTIALLY HAPPENED ON PARK STREET. BUT AT THIS POINT IN TIME, I'M LETTING THIS HUNT JUST HANDLE THIS, AND SHE'S HAD THE KIND OF MORE OF THE UP FRONT PIECE TO THIS AND TALKING TO THE ADMINISTRATION OF THE CONDITIONS SO FORTH, AND SO. THAT'S KIND OF WHERE IT'S HAPPENING. HE HAS FUNDING FROM YOUR YOUR ORGANIZATION. OR SHE HAS FUNDING HALF THE FUNDING ALREADY. THERE'S HALF THE FUNDING WAS EARMARKED BY MR ROBINETTE THROUGH LET ME SAVE THE COUNCIL. COUNCILOR CONCERNED, BUT YES, COUNCIL ARE CONCERNED. THANK YOU. AND THEN THE OTHER HALF WAS GOING TO BE THROUGH THE HISTORIC COMMISSION. AND ANOTHER QUESTION HERE. YOU'VE GOT THIS LIST OF ALL THESE EVENTS AND EVERYTHING.HAVE YOU DONE? DO YOU HAVE AN IDEA OF HOW MUCH, UM SECONDARY AND PRIMARY INVESTMENT COMES INTO THE END OF THE COMMUNITY. DO YOU HAVE A NUMBER? YOU KNOW THAT YOU THAT YOU'VE BEEN ABLE TO COME UP WITH I MEAN, YOU'VE GOT PROBABLY 10,000 PEOPLE THAT ARE COMING TO THIS THING. DO YOU KNOW WHAT THAT PRIMARY PRIMARY EXPENDITURE AND SECONDARY EXPENDITURE COMES OUT TO BE? HAVE YOU TRIED TO FIGURE THAT OUT? I KNOW I KNOW HOW MUCH WE'RE MAKING TICKET SALES, BUT OTHER THAN THAT, AS FAR AS THE SECONDARY NO, WE DON'T KNOW. WE HAVE TRIED TO TALK TO THE BRICK AND MORTARS OTHER THAN THE FACT. YOU KNOW, WE TRY NOT TO KIND OF PUSH INTO THEIR BUSINESS AND SAY HEY, HOW WELL DID YOU DO LAST YOU KNOW, ON SATURDAY TYPICALLY WE GET FROM THEM. IT'S YOU KNOW, MRS ALEX SAID. IT WAS ONE OF THE BEST DAYS OF THE YEAR OR, YOU KNOW THE BEST DAYS OF THE QUARTER. AND SO WE DO KNOW THAT THEY DO SPEND THAT'S ONE THING WE STARTED TO TRACK. ODDLY ENOUGH WITH THE DOOR ON AND WHEN TO SEE IF THERE WAS AN UPTICK IN BUSINESS. AT THAT POINT, OBVIOUSLY, IT WOULD BE EASY TO TELL IF THEY WANT THEM IN THE DOOR CUP. BUT UNFORTUNATELY WITH YOU KNOW OUR SMALL BUSINESSES, IT'S TYPICALLY A ONE PERSON OWNER OPERATOR. WE HAVE A FEW BUSINESSES THAT HAVE HIRED A FEW PEOPLE WERE THE LAST COUPLE YEARS WELL, MORE SPECIFICALLY ENDED LAST YEAR TO THIS YEAR, BUT, UM, WE ARE WANTING TO WORK ON GETTING THAT NUMBER BECAUSE WE OBVIOUSLY FEEL THAT POTENTIALLY WITH OUR LOCAL RESTAURANTS, ESPECIALLY AFTER A COUPLE OF OUR EVENTS. I DO KNOW, FOR INSTANCE. FIRST FOOD TRUCK NIGHT WE HAD LAST YEAR. ONE PARTICULAR BUSINESS DID 17,000 ALONE IN DORA CUPS. THERE'S A LOT OF COPS. UM SO. BUT SO THAT ONE I DIDN'T I DIDN'T KNOW, BUT WE ARE GOING TO WORK TOWARDS TRYING TO CREATE SOME TYPE OF SYSTEM THAT KIND OF GIVES US AN IDEA OF WHAT WE ARE AT THAT POINT, BUT I MOST CERTAINLY UNDERSTAND THAT YOU KNOW, A LOT OF OUR FOLKS HAVE BEEN TALKING TO THEM AFTER THE FACT WE STRAW POEM. WHAT DO WE DO WRONG? WHAT WE DO, RIGHT? WHAT CAN WE WORK ON TO DO BETTER? YOU KNOW, WE DO HEAR THE COMMENTS ABOUT THAT. IT WAS A VERY GOOD DAY FOR THEM IN BUSINESS AT THAT POINT, SO WHAT I'M CONCERNED ABOUT AND I WAS TALKING TO MR. HOLD ABOUT THIS. YOU YOU YOU'RE ONLY BASICALLY
[01:05:04]
SPENDING $27,000 FOR SALARIES. TO DO ALL THESE EVENTS CORRECT. AND YOU'RE ONLY SPENDING $19,400 ON MARKETING TO DO ALL THESE EVENTS. WHICH. IN THE BUSINESS WORLD. THAT'S NOTHING RIGHT. SO I MEAN, I GUESS MY QUESTION TO YOU TO YOU IS, YOU KNOW THAT'S OBVIOUSLY VERY PART TIME. VERY PART TIME PERSON. THAT'S THAT'S WORKING FOR YOU, RIGHT? SO, YOU KNOW. I DON'T KNOW. I THINK YOU NEED TO LOOK AT LOOK AT THAT A LITTLE BIT TO FIND OUT IF YOU NEED TO EITHER HAVE TO PART TIME OR ONE FULL FULL TIME AND THEN AT THE BOTTOM THERE WHAT YOU NEED TO EFFECTIVELY MARKET SOME OF THESE THINGS BECAUSE THAT $19,000 IS NOTHING TO MARKET SOMETHING. NO IT IS RATHER DIFFICULT. WE GET SOME GREAT DEALS WORKING WITH WERE VERY PARTICULAR ABOUT I AM ARE PRINTED MEDIA SPECIFICALLY. AND OBVIOUSLY SOME OF THAT AS WELL. AND THAT 19 THOUSANDS. ACTUALLY WE HAVE OUR MARKETING AND FACEBOOK THAT WE DO, WHICH IS A GREAT DOLLAR VALUE FOR US, BUT WE EACH YEAR WE EVALUATE ALL OF OUR PRINTED MEDIA. TO GET THE BEST BANG FOR OUR BUCK. THAT'S THE SAME THING THAT WE DO THAT WE DO PASS ALONG TO THE BUSINESSES AS WELL. TO GIVE THEM SO THEY DON'T HAVE TO SIT AND GO THROUGH THE SPIEL FROM FROM A RAP, EVEN THOUGH THE REPS ARE VERY NICE, BUT THEN THEY DON'T HAVE TO SIT THERE AND TRY TO GO THROUGH. WHAT'S THE BEST BANG FOR THEIR BUCKS? SO WE DO THAT FOR THEM EVERY YEAR. BUT THERE'S ALSO IT IS FOR US AS FAR AS OUR MARK. WHAT, WHAT WE'RE GOING TO MARKET TO THIS YEAR WILL BE INVESTING IN A FEW MACHINES THAT ACTUALLY WILL SCAN YOUR LICENSE . AT THAT. SAME TIME, IT'LL TAKE SOME DEMOGRAPHIC INFORMATION THAT I'VE BEEN ABLE TO DOWNLOAD AND PUT INTO AN EXCEL SPREADSHEET. I CAN N DETERMINE WHAT MARKETING IS WORKING. WHAT ISN'T THAT'S LONG PAST DUE FOR US TO KIND OF POINT, BUT UM, IT'S JUST I MEAN, I THINK I BROUGHT THIS UP MULTIPLE TIMES. MY SALARY IS SET AND THAT'S WHAT I CHOSE TO TAKE. AND THAT'S $8400 A YEAR. THE REST GOES TO MISS QUINN AND SHE IS AN ABSOLUTE ROCK. AND SO THAT IS SOMETHING WE ARE GOING TO BE TALKING ABOUT AS A BOARD TO BRING HER UP TO A MORE MORE AND LINES THAT LINE PART TIME POSITION HOURLY WAGE FOR HER. AS SHE PUTS IT A LOT MORE HOURS THAN SHE GETS PAID FOR, AND SHE REFUSES TO GET PAID FOR THEM. SO BUT OBVIOUSLY MARKETING DOLLARS. WE'RE VERY OPEN TO HAVING THOSE KINDS OF EXTRA DOLLARS TO HAVE AND TO BE ABLE TO PUSH OUT A LITTLE FURTHER. THE OTHER QUESTIONS FOR ANDY. MAY HAVE SOMEONE WRITING A CHECK COMING OUT. WELL I'D LIKE TO KNOW WHAT I CALL WHAT YOU THINK IT WOULD COST. THAT'S LIKE, I GUESS MY QUESTION I CAN I CAN GET BACK YARD. THANK YOU VERY MUCH, ANDY FOR COMING IN. ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU. APPRECIATE THE GREAT JOB. YOU GUYS DO. THANK YOU. ALL RIGHT. WE'LL GO TO ANYBODY ELSE IN THE AUDIENCE WOULD LIKE TO COME FORTH AND ASK A QUESTION, UM, OR ADDRESS THE COUNCIL CAN USE ALL THIS TIME. AND THEY'RE ALL FLOCKING TO THE PODIUM THERE, SO WE'LL GO TO MR BOZO WHY THEY'RE ALL THINKING ABOUT IT. MY LIFE. NOTHING ADDITIONAL.THANK YOU. MR TURNER. NOTHING TONIGHT. THANK YOU. MR BARRY. MR STEPHEN SMITH. YES SIR. JUST UPDATE YOU. WE DO HAVE THE RFP FOR THE AGGREGATION COMPLETED AS I INDICATED IN CAUCUS. TIME WE WORKED THROUGH THAT ON A CONFERENCE CALL LAST WEEK. WE WILL BE PUBLISHING THAT ON THE CITY'S WEBSITE. AS SOON AS I SENT IT, THE TODD AND HE FIGURES OUT HOW TO DO THAT. AND THEN OUR CONSULTANT WILL ALSO BE SENDING IT OUT TO THE SUPPLIERS TO START GETTING PRICING THAT WE WILL BRING BACK BEFORE YOU AND COUNCIL I THINK THAT DATES THAT WE PUT IN THERE PROBABLY ADMITTED MARCH BEFORE WE GET ALL THE PROPOSALS BACK. I JUST WANTED TO LET YOU KNOW THAT WE'RE ON TRACK TO KIND OF SEE THIS THROUGH. AND THAT'S ALL I HAVE. THANK YOU, SIR, TELLING. I HAVE NOTHING FURTHER. THANK YOU, SIR. ANY OF THE DEPARTMENT HEADS HAVE ANYTHING THAT THEY WOULD LIKE TO TALK ABOUT? OH, I'M SORRY, DARRYL. COME ON UP. I APOLOGIZE FOR THAT. 28 WATKINS DRIVE, WHICH IS JUST OFF OF TOURNAMENT WAY. SO DO END TO KIND OF NOT BE REDUNDANT, BUT TO EMPHASIZE SOME OF THE CONCERNS WE HAVE. FIRST OF ALL, THERE ARE TWO SPEED BUMPS. ON TOURNAMENT WAY THE ONES LIKE YOU'RE TALKING THAT GO UP FLAT. GO DOWN. OKAY AND YES, THEY DID DO THE.
SNOWPLOWING OVER THEM, BUT THERE WAS NO DAMAGE INTO THOSE GROUPS. UM WE MOVED TO GROCERY IN 2000 AND 17. WE MOVED BACK IN THAT AREA. THERE IS NOBODY ON ONE SIDE OF US. THERE IS A PARK WHERE THE PARK IS GOING TO GO IN THE BACK OF US. THERE'S A WALKWAY THAT REALLY WALKS ON.
[01:10:03]
AND WE HAVE NEIGHBORS. ON THE OTHER SIDE AND ACROSS THE STREET. UM WE CHOSE THAT PLACE BECAUSE WE CAME FROM THE FARM. I LIVED ON A FARM ALL MY LIFE. MY FAMILY LIVED IN. ON HARD ROAD AND MY GRANDFATHER ALSO HELPED START THE GROSS CITY FARMERS EXCHANGE. SO WE HAVE A BACKGROUND IN AGGRESSIVE. WHEN WE MOVED THERE, WE CHOSE THAT PLACE OVER THE CON OFF A HOOVER ROAD BECAUSE OF THE LOCATION. AND BECAUSE OF THE AREA, WE PICKED THE FIRST SPOT BACK IN THAT BACK LOCATION. UM. WE DID THAT FOR THE SECLUSION. LET'S TRAFFIC EXCEPT AND THIS IS GOING TO DEFINITELY AFFECT THAT IS THIS HAWK KNOWS UM. ONE OF THE THINGS THAT BOTHERS ME IS BECAUSE I'M GOING TO TURN 70 THIS YEAR. AND I'M A BIKE RIDER. AND I WRITE DOWN TOURNAMENT WAY AND WHEN WE DRIVE CARS AND STUFF DOWN THERE WE ALWAYS YOU'VE GOT PEOPLE ON BOTH PARKING ON BOTH SIDES OF THE STREET, SO THAT ROAD WAS NOT DESIGNED LIKE THE MAIN THOROUGHFARES. THAT YOU'RE DEALING WITH. IT'S GOT PEOPLE AT PARK ON BOTH SIDES. SO YOU HAVE PEOPLE START AND STOP YOU LET HIM THROUGH. YOU GO AROUND AND STUFF LIKE THAT. SO THAT MAY BE A PLUS. BUT IF YOU START INCREASING THE TRAFFIC, YOU'RE GOING TO END UP WITH MORE PROBLEMS BACK IN THERE, AND SOME OF THE THINGS WE'RE CONCERNED ABOUT ARE THE INCREASED TRAFFIC. BE SAFETY CONCERNS FOR THAT AREA BECAUSE WE DID HAVE PEOPLE BREAK INTO CARS BACK IN THAT LOCATION BEFORE. WE HAD TWO OR THREE THAT HAPPENED. JUST A COUPLE OF HOUSES DOWN FROM US. IN FACT, WE FOUND. CREDIT CARDS AND EVERYTHING ELSE LAYING OUT IN OUR YARD. BECAUSE OF THE LOCATION, OF COURSE, AND WE FEEL THAT THERE COULD BE AN INCREASE IN CRIME. AND THERE'S GOING TO HAVE TO BE SOME GIVE AND TAKE LIKE WE WERE TALKING EARLIER. DELINQUENT COREY WAS TALKING, AND THAT'S THE REASON WHY I KIND OF WOULD REITERATE SOME OF THE THINGS, HE SAID. THERE'S GOT TO BE CONCERNS ABOUT THE SPEED BECAUSE BACK IN THAT AREA, IT'S SUPPOSED TO BE 25. I KNOW THAT THERE ARE PEOPLE THAT GO FASTER THAN THAT. BUT WE TRY TO KEEP IT AT THAT SPEED. AND SO THE SPEED BUMPS ARE THERE. YOU'VE GOT BIKE WRITERS. YOU'VE GOT KIDS THAT ARE WALKING IN THE STREET ON THE ROADS. THEY'RE WALKING THEIR DOGS, ETCETERA, ETCETERA. AND LIKE I SAID, BEHIND US AS A WALKWAY, SO AT THAT POINT, A LOT OF THESE THESE PEOPLE ARE WALKING DOWN TOURNAMENT WAY, TURNING AND GOING BEHIND OUR HOUSE AND CROSSED TOURNAMENT WAY. SO THERE'S A LOT OF TRAFFIC. FROM PEDESTRIANS IN THAT AREA. IF MY WIFE AND I TAKE A WALK WE USUALLY SEE FIVE OR SIX PEOPLE WALKING. ON THAT ON THAT PARTICULAR PLACE SO THAT THOSE ARE SOME OF OUR CONCERNS, AND I KNOW THAT IN 2000, I BELIEVE 2000 AND 18. THERE WAS THE MEETING FOR THE PARK. AND WE WERE ASKED WHAT WE WANTED TO SEE HAPPEN AT THAT POINT. AND I KNOW WE TALKED TO A COUPLE OF PEOPLE. I DON'T KNOW IF IT WAS THE BOARD OR IF IT WAS AN ENGINEER WAS WHEN WE TALKED TO THEM AFTER THE MEETING, AND THEY BASICALLY TOLD ME HE SAID, NO, THERE WON'T BE A BRIDGE ACROSS THERE BECAUSE IT'S GOING TO COST TOO MUCH MONEY. SO WHETHER OR NOT. THAT'S NOT THE CASE ANYMORE BECAUSE WE SEE THE WE'VE SEEN LAST SUMMER WHENEVER WHEN THEY WERE DOING THE MEASURING FOR IT AND GOT THE TAKING ALL THE MEASUREMENTS AND STUFF AND ALL AND WE SEE ALL THIS STUFF THAT'S HAPPENING NOW. WE KNOW THAT THAT'S NOT GOING TO HAPPEN. BUT I THINK IF WE CAN CONTROL THAT, LIKE COREY WAS SAYING, IF WE CONTROL THAT FOR SAFETY VEHICLES MORE THAN ANYTHING ELSE THAT WOULD BE A BETTER SOLUTION. BUT THAT'S JUST MY THOUGHT. AND I APPRECIATE YOU LISTENING. THANK. ANYONE ELSE IN THE AUDIENCE WANT TO ADDRESS THE COUNCIL? DEPARTMENT HEADS THAT HAVE NOT BEEN ASKED TO COME UP. DO YOU HAVE ANYTHING THAT YOU NEED? UM NEED TO HAVE ADDRESSED ANYBODY ON THE COMPUTER ANY THE DEPARTMENT HEADS ON THE COMPUTER. IT WON'T GO TO CLOSING COMMENTS. MR SHOCKING. THANK YOU, MR PRESIDENT. YOU KNOW, WE'VE HAD SO MANY PEOPLE THAT PASSED AWAY. RECENTLY IN GROVE CITY BECAUSE OF THIS PANDEMIC, AND FOR OTHER REASONS AND I OPEN THE PAPER THIS MORNING AND GO DOWN THROUGH AND I LOOK AT THE LITTLE CHART TO SEE IF ON THERE AND I STARTED TO CRY BECAUSE MY DEAR FRIEND, JOHN ALLEN.

UH ANYTHING I CAN DO TO KIND OF FACILITY CONNECTIVE ITTY. SO THAT THE WHOLE NEIGHBORHOODS YOU KNOW, NOT EVERYONE CAN BE HERE THIS EVENING THAT THEIR CONCERNS COULD BE ADDRESSED. I THINK IT'S IMPORTANT IT'S BUT THERE'S BEEN A LITTLE BIT OF A DISCONNECT REFERRED TO THAT MEETING IN AUGUST OF 2019. AND HERE WE ARE TODAY AND THE FACT THAT THE PEOPLE THAT ARE LIVING IN THE COMMUNITY AREN'T REALLY SURE WHAT'S HAPPENING. THAT'S WHAT I'D REALLY LIKE TO SEE YOU GET RESOLVED.
