          THANK YOU EVERYONE. 
          MY NAME IS KATIE MCQUEEN.

          VERY CLEAR. 
          YOU ALL LOOK LIKE FRIENDLY PEOPLE AND PLEASE, IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS, I CAN CERTAINLY ANSWER THEM HERE. 
          WE'RE ALL VERY EXCITED TO, UH, TO SHARE SOME OF THE DETAILS WITH YOU TODAY, OF COURSE, ABOUT THE UNCOMMON GROUND SCULPTURE PARK WE'LL BEGIN WITH WITH THE NAME ITSELF, UM, THE, THE NAME AND THE PERSONALITY OF THIS BEAUTIFUL 62 ACRES OF LAND ON SECOND AND COLTRANE IS ABSOLUTELY ABOUT CREATIVITY, UH, PLAYFULNESS, COLORFULNESS, EXCITEMENT, AND BEING A VERY INVITING PLACE FOR THE ENTIRE COMMUNITY. 
          YOU CAN SEE HERE, THE LOGO AND SOME OF THE INITIAL COLORS FOR THE BRAND, THE VISION FOR THE BRAND AND THE PARK IS TO CONNECT ART AND COMMUNITY THROUGH UNCOMMON EXPERIENCES. 
          LET'S TALK ABOUT THE ART ART IS AT THE HEART OF THIS DEVELOPMENT. 
          OF COURSE, PUBLIC ART IS AN EDMUND'S DNA WITH OVER 200 PIECES LOCALLY IN IT IN A VERY STRONG COMMITMENT AND PASSION FOR GROWING THAT COLLECTION. 
          AND THAT WAS ALSO A VERY STRONG IMPETUS FOR THE FRENCH FAMILY CHARITABLE FOUNDATIONS DESIRE TO BUILD THIS PARK IN THE FIRST PLACE. 
          WE'LL TALK A LOT ABOUT THE ART, THE COLLECTION THAT HAS THUS FAR BEEN GROWN AND WILL CONTINUE TO GROW AS THE PARK DEVELOPS. 
          AND THEN OBVIOUSLY OF COURSE THE COMMUNITY AND BEING A PLACE TO ENGAGE MEMBERS, UM, FROM, FROM ALL AROUND, UH, BOTH LOCALLY, REGIONALLY, UH, MEMBERS OF ALL AGES, THIS WILL BE AN INCREDIBLE, INCREDIBLE GIFT TO THE CITY. 
          UM, THAT CREATES 62 BEAUTIFUL ACRES TO PLAY, TO GATHER, UM, AND TO AGAIN, SHARE UNCOMMON EXPERIENCES. 
          THAT'S A VERY IMPORTANT PART OF THE NAME BECAUSE WE REALLY WANT TO, UM, CREATE, UH, MEMORABLE AND UNIQUE PROGRAMS AND INVITING, UM, UH, MUSIC, ART CULTURE EXPERIENCES THROUGHOUT THE YEAR. 
          SO TO SHARE A FEW OF THOSE, UH, SCULPTURE PIECES, AGAIN, THERE ARE 30 PLUS, UH, PIECES AND GROWING OVER A MILLION DOLLARS OF PRIVATELY FUNDED, UM, UH, TO, TO FUND THE EXISTING COLLECTION THUS FAR. 
          AND AGAIN, PLANS TO GROW THAT CONNECTION OR THAT COLLECTION EVERYTHING FROM ABSOLUTELY THAT YOU CAN SEE THIS AUTO ROLL FROM JACK HILL TO FOLLOW THE LEADER BY W STANLEY PROCTOR. 
          WE'VE GOT ALL RANGES OF STYLES, GENRES FROM MODERN TO CONTEMPORARY. 
          THESE PIECES WILL BE WOVEN THROUGHOUT THE PARK. 
          THIS PARTICULAR PIECE IS BEING COMMISSIONED. 
          IT WILL SAY OUR, OUR, OUR ART. 
          AND AGAIN, YOU CAN IMAGINE THE PHOTOGRAPH OPPORTUNITIES, THE OPPORTUNITIES TO GATHER AND TO COME SEE AND TO EXPERIENCE ALL OF THESE DIFFERENT PIECES. 
          LIKE I SAID, THERE'LL BE WOVEN THROUGH THE 62 ACRES, SO IT WILL CREATE A VERY INVITING, FUN, IMMERSIVE EXPERIENCE. 
          AND OBVIOUSLY ALSO ALSO THE GROUP, UM, WE'VE WORKED WITH THE CITY TO COMMISSION THE VALLEY OF THE HORSE PIECE, WHICH IS AN HOMAGE TO THE LAND ITSELF. 
          AND THAT WILL BE RIGHT AT THE CORNER OF SECOND AND COLTRANE AN INCREDIBLE PIECE OF ARTWORK THAT WILL INVITE, UM, UH, THE, THE SURROUNDING COMMUNITY, UH, INTO THE PARK, RIGHT THERE AT THAT, UH, VERY MEMORABLE INTERSECTION. 
          AND AS WELL AS THIS HOPE BY JAMES TYLER, YOU CAN IMAGINE, YOU KNOW, WALKING DOWN THE PATHS THAT IN, IN, UH, EXPERIENCING SOME OF THIS ART, IT WILL BE A REALLY INCREDIBLE EXPERIENCE. 
          UM, AND OBVIOUSLY SUPPORTING THAT ART ITSELF WILL BE ALL OF THE OTHER COMMUNITY, UM, OPPORTUNITIES, ALL THE DIFFERENT COMMUNITY AREAS AS WELL. 
          SO I'M GOING TO ACTUALLY, I'M GOING TO LET SCOTT HOWARD TALK HERE FOR A MINUTE. 
          WE'RE GOING TO KEEP OUR PRESENTATION AS CONDENSED AS WE CAN TO ALLOW OPPORTUNITY FOR QUESTIONS. 
          UM, BUT AS I WAS TALKING ABOUT THE INTEGRATION OF ARTS, AND OBVIOUSLY I CAN TALK A LOT MORE ABOUT THE IMPORTANCE OF ART IN THE EDMOND COMMUNITY. 
          I THINK EVERYONE KNOWS IT'S VERY MUCH A PART OF WHO WE ARE AND A PART OF OUR PERSONALITY. 
          YOU LOOK AT ALL OF THE GROWTH IN THE DOWNTOWN AREA, AND OF COURSE CONNECTING THAT THROUGH UCO ALL THE WAY ACROSS, UM, THE, UH, THE, THE CITY. 
          I THINK THAT THERE WILL BE NO QUESTION AS TO WHY, UM, SOMETHING LIKE THIS IS GOING TO BE PART OF OUR, OUR NEW PERSONALITY GOING FORWARD. 
          AND I THINK A VERY EXCITING ADDITION TO THE SURROUNDING COMMUNITY. 
          SO I'M GOING TO HAND THIS OVER TO SCOTT AND HE'S GOING 
          [00:05:01]
TO WALK US THROUGH THE OVERALL MAP OF THE LOCATION. 
          UM, AND, UH, AGAIN, AS I MENTIONED, THE ART ITSELF WILL BE WOVEN THROUGHOUT, WHICH WILL BE REALLY INCREDIBLE. 
          AND AGAIN, SOMETHING THAT I THINK IS GOING TO BE REGIONALLY INTERESTING. 
          THAT'S, THERE'S NOT A WHOLE LOT OF DIFFERENT PARKS ACROSS THE COUNTRY THAT HAVE SOMETHING LIKE THIS. 
          SO OBVIOUSLY OF COURSE, INCREDIBLE ATTRACTION, KATIE, MR. MAYOR, CITY MANAGER. 
          WELL, I WAS KIND OF SURE. 
          YEAH. 
          ANYWAY, THIS SIZE KATIE MENTIONED, THIS IS AT THE NORTHWEST CORNER OF COLTRANE AND SECOND STREET, WHICH IS ALSO 360, SAY WOULD HAVE TO BE, UM, I'M SORRY IF IT'S BEING RECORDED. 
          I THINK YOU PROBABLY NEED TO GO TO THE BIBLE. 
          I'M ALSO NOT SCOTT HOWARD, HOPEFULLY. 
          OKAY. 
          ALL RIGHT. 
          YEAH. 
          THIS IS, UH, AGAIN, IT'S 62 ACRE PARK AT THE NORTHWEST CORNER OF COLTRANE AND SECOND STREET I'M HITTING OFF WITH ONE OF THE PREMIER PIECES OF ART RIGHT THERE ON THE SOUTHEAST CORNER WILL BE THE VALLEY OF THE HORSE SCULPTURE ARRANGEMENT BY ARTIST PAUL MOORE. 
          AND HE'S VERY FAMOUS FOR A LOT OF HIS WESTERN HERITAGE TYPE, UH, ART AND SCULPTURES. 
          AND THAT WILL BE A GREAT SPOT RIGHT THERE. 
          THE MAIN PARK ENTRY IS ABOUT SIX TO 700 FOOT NORTH OF SECOND STREET, AND IT'S KIND OF A DIVIDED ENTRY, WHICH ALLOWS FOR CARS TO ENTER AND QUEUE, AND THEN AN EXIT LANE TO EXIT BACK OUT ONTO COLD TRAIN. 
          WE HAVE A MAIN GATE. 
          AND WHEN YOU APPROACH UP INTO THE PARK, ONE OF THE FIRST THINGS YOU WILL SEE IS THE BIRD'S NEST OBSERVATION TOWER, WHICH IS A WONDERFUL PIECE OF ARCHITECTURE THAT RAND HAS CREATED. 
          UM, SOUTH OF THAT, THERE'S A DROP-OFF AREA AND A PLACE FOR FOOD TRUCKS. 
          AND THEN WE HAVE THE, UH, UH, THE ITEM THAT'S, UH, UH, THE CROSS TIMBERS CAMP, WHICH IS KIND OF, UH, UH, PAVILION RESTROOM CAFE AREA TO SUPPORT THE EVENT LAWN THAT WE HAVE RIGHT HERE. 
          WE'VE ALSO GOT A STAGE AREA AT THIS LOCATION, AND THEN WE HAVE SERVICE ACCESS FOR, YOU KNOW, EVENT VEHICLES, TRUCKS, THINGS LIKE THAT WITH OVERFLOW PARKING, A LOT OF BERMING ALONG THE EDGES, HEAVY TREE PLANTINGS THROUGHOUT THE PARK. 
          AND AS WE COME ALONG THE MAIN ROAD, WE COME ABOUT TO, UH, ROUNDABOUT, UH, ANOTHER PERFECT PLACE FOR A VERY ICONIC PIECE OF ART. 
          THEN YOU HEAD NORTH TO THE VISITOR CENTER AND THE SUPPORT PARKING FOR THAT COMING DOWN INTO THE SOUTH AREA, THAT KIND OF THE YELLOWISH AREA, THAT'S WHERE WE HAVE A SPRAY GROUND SPLASH, SPLASH PAD TYPE UP CHILDREN'S ACTIVITY AREA. 
          AND THEN WE HAVE A SERIES OF PLAYGROUND AREAS HERE TO ACCOMMODATE ALL AGES FROM TWO TO FIVE TO FIVE TO 12. 
          SO A WONDERFUL, UM, AREA THERE FOR CHILDREN. 
          AND AS WE CONTINUE ON, UH, WESTWARD, WE WILL HAVE A DOG PARK. 
          AND THEN, UH, THE BROWN AREA, THERE IS KIND OF A FITNESS CAMP, UH, ADVENTURE ZONE. 
          AND THEN NEXT TO THAT, WE WILL HAVE THE PICNIC GROVE AND A COMMUNITY GARDEN. 
          UM, NORTH, AS YOU ENTER THE TURN-AROUND LOOP FOR THE PARK, WE HAVE, UH, IT'S KIND OF THE WEST END, WHAT USED TO BE THE HORSE BARN. 
          AND IT WILL NOW BE CALLED THE HORSESHOE PAVILION, WONDERFUL OUTDOOR SPACE WHERE YOU CAN HAVE, UM, GRILLING FIRE PITS, UH, SOME ACTIVITY COURTS, UH, PICKLE BALL, UH, VOLLEYBALL, UM, LAWN GAMES, LIKE A BOTCHY BALL AND COURT HOME, YOU KNOW, FUN LAWN TYPE GAMES. 
          AND THEN AT THE WEST END, WE HAVE, UH, ANOTHER SMALL PAVILION THAT SERVICES THE LAWN AREA THERE IN FRONT OF THE HORSESHOE PAVILION, KIND OF GOING A LITTLE BIT DRY. 
          THERE'S A CRATE THAT KIND OF DIVIDES THE SITE RUNS KIND OF EAST AND WEST AND ON THE SOUTH OR SOUTHERN SECTION OF THE SITE, A LOT OF THIS IS IN A KIND OF FLOOD PLAIN AREA, AND WE WILL BE DEVELOPING OR IMPLEMENTING A COUPLE OF RETENTION, PONDS, AND WONDERFUL CIRCULATION SYSTEM THAT KIND OF WANDERS AND MEANDERS THROUGHOUT THE ENTIRE PARK, ALLOWING YOU TO EXPERIENCE A WHOLE LOT OF DIFFERENT AREAS, YOU KNOW, FROM A WIDER PATHWAY SYSTEM TO EVEN MORE CASUAL, INFORMAL TRAIL HIKING, JUST THROUGH THE WOODS, UH, AT THE NORTHERN EDGE OF THE, UH, THE PARK, UM, ALONG THE SOUTHERN BORDER IS A PAT SITE FOR RESTAURANTS. 
          THESE WILL HAVE, UH, OVERLOOKED 
          [00:10:01]
X THAT WILL ALLOW THEIR RESTAURANT PATRONS TO OVERLOOK THE PARK AND FEEL LIKE THEY'RE A PART OF IT. 
          THEY WILL ALSO HAVE ACCESS TO THE PARK. 
          AND LET ME SEE IF I LEFT ANYTHING OUT. 
          I THINK THOSE ARE PRETTY MUCH THE HIGHLIGHTS. 
          WE DO HAVE A FEW OPEN MEADOW SITES, UH, AROUND THE OBSERVATION TOWER, UH, AROUND THE COMMUNITY GARDEN AND THEN KIND OF A RIPARIAN MEADOW AT THE SOUTHEAST LOCATION. 
          SO THAT'S KIND OF, UH, PRETTY MUCH THE HIGHLIGHT OF THE PARK LAYOUT AND I'LL GIVE THE, OKAY. 
          SO GO AHEAD, UH, GO THROUGH SOME SORT OF, UH, DEVICE IN THE FLOOR THAT, UM, YOU KNOW, YOU NEVERMIND. 
          OKAY. 
          THANK YOU FOR INVITING ME. 
          MY NAME IS RANDY ELLIOTT. 
          I'M AN ARCHIVE. 
          OKAY. 
          FINISHED. 
          THANK YOU, JOHN. 
          UH, MY NAME IS RANDY ELLIOT. 
          I'M AN ARCHITECT. 
          UM, I HAVE THE PLEASURE OF WORKING WITH HAL AND THIS WHOLE TEAM ON THIS VERY SPECIAL PROJECT. 
          I'D LIKE TO JUST SAY THAT, UM, REALLY THE INSPIRATION FOR THE PARK ARCHITECTURE COMES FROM THE HISTORY OF THE CROSS TIMBERS. 
          IT COMES FROM THE JOHNSON ARABIAN HORSE FARM OR RANCH, UH, WHICH WAS ORIGINALLY CALLED THE VALLEY OF THE HORSE, AND CERTAINLY HOUSED DESIRE TO CREATE A WORLD-CLASS SCULPTURE PARK FOR THE CITY OF EDMOND. 
          THE BIRD'S NEST, WHICH SCOTT SPOKE TO IS THE HIGHEST POINT ON THE SITE. 
          THE OBSERVATION PLATFORM IS AT 37 FEET, AND YOU'LL FEEL LIKE YOU'RE IN A BIRD'S NEST AS YOU LOOK ACROSS THE LANDSCAPE. 
          UM, THIS IS THE INTENTION OF IT BEING SEEN AT NIGHT AND BEING VISIBLE FROM SECOND STREET AND AROUND IF YOU WILL. 
          THE SECOND PIECE WE'D LIKE TO TALK ABOUT IS WHAT'S CALLED THE GLASS HOUSE ON THE GLASS HOUSE IS IN THE POSITION ACTUALLY OF WHERE THE ORIGINAL JOHNSON HOUSE WAS. 
          AND IT IS THE VISITOR CENTER IN THE PARK. 
          THIS IS THE MAIN ENTRANCE AS YOU COME OUT AS, AS IF YOU'VE JUST GOTTEN MARRIED MAYBE FOR THE FIRST TIME, MAYBE FOR THE SITE. 
          ANYWAY, UH, YOU CAN DO THAT HERE, UM, AT THIS PARTICULAR LOCATION, WONDERFUL OPPORTUNITY INSIDE. 
          IT'S REALLY A GLASS ROOM. 
          YOU'RE LOOKING OUT TO THE EAST TOWARDS THE LANDSCAPE PORTION, UH, BE A LOVELY SPACE TO BE IN, UM, ON THE WEST END. 
          UH, SCOTT MENTIONED, UM, THE HORSESHOE PAVILION IT'S REALLY ADJACENT TO THE ORIGINAL HORSE BARN. 
          THE MURAL ON THE LEFT IS THE ORIGINAL HORSE BARN LOCATION AND HAS A HAND PAINTED MURAL ON IT. 
          AND THEN FURTHER TO THE LEFT IS THE LAWN PAVILION THAT WE ARE CALLING IT. 
          UM, THE IDEA IS TO CREATE A WONDERFUL OUTDOOR SPACE THAT IS CONTROLLED. 
          YOU CAN CONTROL THE SUN, YOU CAN CONTROL THE WIND AS SOME OF THOSE THINGS. 
          KATIE, CAN YOU GO TO THE NEXT ONE AT NIGHT? THERE'LL BE WONDERFUL ROMANTIC SPACE. 
          UM, WE HAVE AN OUTDOOR PIT WITH FIRE PITS IN IT. 
          UM, WE HAVE WHAT WE CALL THE HORSESHOE WALL, WHICH IS INSPIRED BY THE VALLEY OF THE HORSE, OF COURSE. 
          AND THAT'S, BACKLIGHTED, UM, CUT OUT STEEL. 
          THAT'S ALL IN THE SHAPE OF A STAMPEDE OF HORSES. 
          THIS IS A VIEW FROM THE SOUTH LOOKING NORTH AGAIN, THE PAINTED MURAL, THE LAWN PAVILION TO THE LEFT, UM, WHAT IT MIGHT LOOK LIKE AT NIGHT, WONDERFUL OPPORTUNITIES, UH, DIFFERENT SIZES OF SPACES FOR FAMILIES AND FAMILY REUNIONS AND THAT SORT OF THING TO MEET AND TO ENJOY THE OUTDOOR SPACE NEXT. 
          UM, THERE IS A GROUP OF FOUR, UM, PICNIC PAVILIONS. 
          WE'RE CALLING THEM, UM, THAT IS CALLED THE PICNIC GROVE THAT SCOTT MENTIONED EARLIER. 
          THERE'LL BE EACH UNIQUE AND, UH, SCULPTURAL IN NATURE. 
          THIS GIVES YOU ONE EXAMPLE OF WHAT THAT MIGHT LOOK LIKE. 
          AND THEN FINALLY, UM, ALONG THE SOUTH EAST CORNER OF YOU WILL HAVE, THE SITE IS A WHAT WE'RE CALLING THE TALL GRASS STAGE. 
          AND OF COURSE, FOR ALL OF YOU WHO KNOW THE HISTORY OF THE, OF THE CROSS TIMBERS, IT WAS A COMBINATION OF, UM, OAK TREES AND, UH, PRAIRIE GRASS. 
          AND SO WE'RE DOING AN HOMAGE TO THE PRAIRIE GRASS HERE BY CREATING A WONDERFUL OUTDOOR SPACE AND THEN THE, UH, VERTICAL ELEMENTS THAT RECOGNIZE, UH, THIS CONNECTION TO THE TALL GRASS PRAIRIE OF OKLAHOMA. 
          THANK YOU VERY MUCH. 
          THANK YOU. 
          SO TO BRING OUR QUICK 15 MINUTES TO THAT, SO WE CAN GET INTO SOME QUESTIONS, UM, OBVIOUSLY, YOU KNOW, THE, THE, THE NATURE OF THIS, UH, THIS PARK AND WHAT IT WILL BRING TO IT FOR, FOR THE CITY OF EDMOND FOR THE, FOR THE STATE, UM, AND SURROUNDING TOURISM FOR THE ECONOMIC IMPACT OF THE AREA. 
          THAT'S EXTREMELY IMPORTANT. 
          OF COURSE. 
          I MEAN, YOU CAN'T LOOK AT THIS AND NOT GET REALLY EXCITED. 
          UM, AS A, AS AN EDMUND NIGHT, MYSELF, OF COURSE, YOU KNOW, WITH, UH, WITH A YOUNG FAMILY, I, UM, I'M READY, READY TO GET THIS OFF THE GROUND. 
          UM, BUT, BUT HONESTLY, UM, YOU KNOW, YOU LOOK AT SOME OF, OF COURSE, THE, THE ECONOMIC IMPACT OF, YOU KNOW, THE GATHERING PLACE UP IN TULSA, AN ESTIMATED 30 TO $40 MILLION OF, OF IMPACT A YEAR. 
          UM, NO DOUBT THIS WILL CREATE AN ICONIC DESTINATION, UM, FOR THE AREA, UM, ABSOLUTELY BENEFIT THE COMMUNITY. 
          I THINK THAT THAT ALL GOES WITHOUT SAYING, 
          [00:15:01]
AND OBVIOUSLY LOOKING AT, UM, THE OPPORTUNITY HERE FOR GROWTH, CONNECTING OUR, OUR STORY OF ART, UM, AND REALLY ROOTING OURSELVES AGAIN AS A, AS AN UNCOMMON, UNIQUE AND WONDERFUL PLACE TO BE. 
          I THINK THAT THAT, THAT, UH, THAT PERSONALITY OF THE PARK IS RIGHT FOR THE CITY OF EDMOND. 
          AND I THINK IT WILL BE WELL-RECEIVED, IT'S OBVIOUSLY LOOK AT THE MAP AND WHAT'S TO COME. 
          IT'S TRULY INCREDIBLE. 
          UM, SO FAR TO DATE $15 MILLION HAS BEEN, UH, RAISED, UM, THERE'S AN ESTIMATE, UM, TO, TO BUILD THE PARK BEFORE INFLATION WAS $58 MILLION. 
          UM, AND OF COURSE WE'D LIKE TO, YOU KNOW, TO TALK ABOUT, UM, UH, YOU KNOW, PARTNERSHIP WITH THE CITY AS WE LOOK AT BUILDING THE INFRASTRUCTURE, THE SUPPORTING NEEDS AROUND THE AREA. 
          UM, BUT AT THIS POINT, UM, I THINK THAT YOU PROBABLY HAVE MOST OF YOUR, YOU KNOW, WE'VE KIND OF GOT A QUICK LAY OF THE LAND. 
          UM, I THINK, YOU KNOW, WHAT WILL BE IN THE SPACE, THE INTENTION FOR THE SPACE. 
          UM, AND CERTAINLY NOW WE CAN TALK ABOUT WAYS THAT WE CAN ALL WORK TOGETHER TO MAKE IT HAPPEN. 
          VERY GOOD. 
          THANK YOU. 
          UM, ANY QUESTIONS, COMMENTS FROM COUNCIL RIGHT NOW? CAN WE TAKE A COUPLE OF SECONDS AND MAYBE BACK UP AND TALK ABOUT WITH THE, WITH THE MASTER PLAN MAP, HOW DOES ART AND IT, AND IF THIS WAS DISCUSSED BRIEFLY OR MENTIONED, I, I MISSED IT. 
          HOW DOES, HOW DO ART PIECES MAKE THEIR WAY THROUGH, THROUGH THE ENTIRE SPACE? I BELIEVE THAT THE, THE INTENTION FOR THEM WOULD BE, YOU KNOW, ALONG THE NATURE TRAILS, UM, AT THE, THE, THE, UM, THE ENTRANCES TO SOME OF THE MAIN BUILDINGS, YOU CAN SEE SOME OF THOSE ROUNDABOUTS THERE, IT WOULD BE, IT WOULD BE THROUGHOUT, WE'VE TALKED ABOUT SOME PIECES, YOU KNOW, THINGS SORT OF BUILT BACK IN THE TREES. 
          WE'VE TALKED ABOUT PIECES, ENCOUNTERING YOU AS YOU'RE, AS YOU'RE MEANDERING THROUGH. 
          IT'S DESIGNED TO BE A VERY IMMERSIVE EXPERIENCE. 
          SO JUST ABOUT EVERYWHERE YOU GO, JUST ABOUT EVERYWHERE YOU GO. 
          YES. 
          OVER THE, OVER THE, I THINK THAT'S THE PLAN FOR OVER THE 62 ACRES, UM, TO WE'VE RIGHT NOW WITH THE COLLECTION OF, YOU KNOW, 30 PIECE, 30 PLUS PIECES. 
          SOME OF THEM ARE SEVEN FEET TALL, SOME OF THEM ARE 20 FEET WIDE. 
          SO THERE'S REALLY, UM, AGAIN, UH, AND THEN OBVIOUSLY, UM, THE, THE PLAN IS THROUGH, UM, THROUGH PARTNERSHIP WITH THE CITY AND THROUGH PRIVATE DONATIONS AND COLLABORATIONS TO, TO GROW THAT COLLECTION UP TO, YOU KNOW, EVEN, EVEN DOUBLE THAT AMOUNT OVER TIME. 
          CAN WE TALK FOR A SECOND ABOUT COMMUNITY IMPACT ON NOT ONLY FOR OUR LOCAL RESIDENTS, A PLACE TO GO PLACE TOGETHER, FAMILIES WITH KIDS, UM, GATHERING PLACE, UH, LET'S TALK ABOUT IMPACT AS FAR AS FESTIVALS AND, UH, REVENUE, GENERATORS, AND ECONOMIC IMPACT THAT WAY, WHERE WHAT'S YOUR VISION FOR PLACING STAGING AREAS ROOM FOR PARKING ROOM, FOR THINGS LIKE THAT, THAT, UM, CAN REALLY TAKE THIS TO THE NEXT LEVEL. 
          SCOTT IS GOING TO COME TAKE THAT BACK REAL QUICK. 
          VERY GOOD QUESTION. 
          UM, AS FAR AS THE STAGING, AS YOU KNOW, I MENTIONED THAT THERE, WE DO HAVE A, UH, KIND OF A SERVICE ACCESS LOOP HERE TO FACILITATE ANY TYPE BOX TRUCKS AND THINGS LIKE THAT THAT MIGHT SUPPORT AND, UH, YOU KNOW, A MUSICAL EVENT. 
          AND, UH, WE KIND OF PATTERNED THE SIZE AFTER THE ZOO AMPHITHEATER TO KIND OF GIVE YOU SOME SENSE OF SCALE. 
          IT'S A LITTLE BIT NARROWER THAN THE AMPHITHEATER, BUT THE EVENT LAWN, UH, OVERALL IS ABOUT 72,000 SQUARE FEET AND COULD HANDLE UP TO AROUND 5,000 PEOPLE. 
          SO WE'RE NOT GOING TO BE ABLE TO FIT ALL THOSE CARS. 
          ON THIS SIDE, WE HAVE APPROXIMATELY A LITTLE OVER 400 SPACES AND THE, UH, PARKING SPACES ARE INDICATED BY THE BROWN OFFSETS ALONG THE MAIN ROAD. 
          AND WE REALLY HOPE TO BE ABLE TO INCORPORATE SOME, UM, SUSTAINABLE TYPE PARKING, YOU KNOW, WHETHER IT'S A PERMEABLE PAPER OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT, WHERE IT'S JUST NOT ALL PAVING, YOU KNOW, CONCRETE OF SEA OF CONCRETE EVERYWHERE. 
          SO WE WANT TO HAVE A SOFT REALLY EMBODYING PARK ENVIRONMENT THAT IS SUSTAINABLE THROUGHOUT THE SITE. 
          I COULD ENVISION BACK AT THE, MAYBE THERE'S ANOTHER NAME FOR IT. 
          I REMEMBER THE HORSE BARN AND THE AREA BACK IN THERE FOR A FESTIVAL, AND REALLY IT'S SOMETHING LARGER THAT CAN GO ON THERE. 
          AND THE LAWN, I HEARD HER FOOD TRUCKS AND PLACES FOR THAT AS WELL. 
          AND IT REALLY SEEMS LIKE IT SETS ITSELF UP FOR AN EVENT. 
          WELL, WE THINK IT PROVIDES A LOT OF OPPORTUNITIES FOR A LOT OF DIFFERENT ACTIVITIES ALL AT THE SAME TIME. 
          YEAH. 
          SO WHETHER YOU WANT TO GO AND, AND, AND ENJOY, UH, A SMALL PICNIC OR TAKE YOUR KIDS TO THE SPRAY GROUNDS, OR YOU HAVE A FAMILY ABANDONED REUNION THERE AT THE HORSESHOE PAVILION. 
          AND I THOUGHT THAT'S, I MEAN, IT'S SPEAKING TO THE OTHERS WHEN WE'VE TALKED ABOUT THIS BEFORE, WE'VE TALKED ABOUT, UM, PUBLIC ART IN EDMOND AND OUR LOOK AT TOURISM 
          [00:20:01]
ON THAT AND ECONOMIC IMPACT, UM, AND AN OPPORTUNITY TO TAKE THAT TO THE NEXT LEVEL, BUT NOT ONLY THAT, BUT LOOKING AT SOMETHING LIKE THIS AND HOW DOES IT, THESE DON'T OPERATE FOR FREE ON DOWN THE LINE. 
          I MEAN, YOU BUILD IT AND THAT COSTS A LOT OF MONEY AND THEN NO DOUBT, IT COSTS A LOT OF MONEY TO, TO KEEP IT CLEAN AND TO KEEP IT MAINTAINED. 
          AND SO HOW DO YOU THINK WHEN YOU'RE IN OUR SHOES, HOW DO YOU THINK ABOUT, UH, HOW DOES IT, HOW DOES IT HELP SUPPORT ITSELF ON DOWN THE ROAD AND BE SUSTAINABLE IN THAT WAY? UH, AND FISCALLY RESPONSIBLE. 
          AND ONE THING IN MY MIND IS IF YOU DO HAVE AN OPPORTUNITY FOR LIKE, UH, AN ARTS FESTIVAL THAT I KNOW HAPPENS AND LOVED ONE IN COLORADO, AND IT'S VERY SUCCESSFUL THERE, THEY GENERATE A OF REVENUE AND THAT ONE EVENT FOR THEIR OPERATIONS, AND TO BE ABLE TO DO THAT. 
          SO NOT ONLY THE ECONOMIC IMPACT FOR OUR RESTAURANTS AND OUR DOWNTOWN AND WHEN A FESTIVAL LIKE THAT TAKES PLACE IN OUR HOTELS AND AIRBNBS, UM, BUT ALSO, UH, A FUNDRAISER FOR THE PROPERTY ITSELF TO, UH, TO PLAN FOR THE YEAR AND TO INTER-OPERATE ITSELF. 
          THAT'S IMPORTANT TO ME. 
          DEFINITELY. 
          DEFINITELY. 
          I WANTED TO MENTION ONE OTHER THING I FORGOT WHEN I FIRST SPOKE IS AS ANOTHER BONUS, WE ARE PLANNING AN EXTENSION OF THE SPRING CREEK TRAIL SYSTEM THAT COULD WIND THROUGH THE PARK AND EVENTUALLY, MAYBE TIE IT TO HAY FOR PARK OR FURTHER GHOSTS, YOU KNOW, FURTHER WEST, AS FAR AS THE, UH, IS THE INCOME OFF THE PROPERTY, ALL THE RESTAURANT SOCKS. 
          AND WE DON'T KNOW IF THERE'S GOING TO BE FIVE RESTAURANTS OR TWO RESTAURANTS AT THIS POINT, BUT THOSE RESTAURANTS SIDES ARE, WE ANTICIPATE LEASING THAT LAND, UH, TO THE RESTAURANTS AND ALL THAT INCOME WILL GO TOWARDS MAINTENANCE. 
          IF WE HAVE ENOUGH, LIKE YOU SAID, IF WE HAD SOME KIND OF FESTIVAL THAT WE COULD RACE MIAMI, IT'S A FREE PARK, BUT IF THERE'S SOMETHING SPECIAL, ANYTHING WE, WE RAISE, UH, INCLUDING THE, UM, THE VET CENTER, I THINK IT WILL THROW OFF INCOME AND, AND, AND DOING OUR, OUR, UH, CAUSE YOU CAN SEE 250 PEOPLE IN THE EVENTS CENTER. 
          UM, IT'S, UH, AND DOING OUR RESEARCH. 
          THEY'RE ALL THE MORE RECENT, BIGGER PARKS, UM, ARE DOING WHERE THERE'S A MAINTENANCE, SEPARATE TOTAL SEPARATE ENTITY THAT, THAT TAKES CARE OF THE MAINTENANCE. 
          AND MOST OF THEM ARE SUPPLEMENTED BY THE CITY, UH, BUT NOT COMPLETELY. 
          AND THE, UH, IT'S JUST GOING TO BE, I THINK THERE'S GOING TO BE SEVERAL DIFFERENT AREAS AND IT'S GOING TO BE A, YOU KNOW, A CONSTANT FUNDRAISING THING TOO. 
          UH, BUT THAT'S THE WAY, I MEAN, EVEN A CENTRAL PARK IN NEW YORK CITY IS MAINTAINED AND I'M SURE THAT'S VERY EXPENSIVE. 
          IT'S 860 ACRE PARK. 
          UM, IT'S MAINTAINED BY A SEPARATE ENTITY THAT A 5 0 1 C3 MAY. 
          OR DO WE HAVE TIME FOR ONE MORE QUESTION? JOSH TOOK ALL OF OUR TIME. 
          YOU HAVE A QUESTION THAT I HAVE A QUESTION. 
          SO GO AHEAD. 
          OKAY. 
          UM, MY GOOD FRIEND, TONY IS HERE. 
          TONY IS A NEIGHBOR, AND I KNOW THERE'S OTHER NEIGHBORS IN HERE, AND I APPRECIATE YOU HOW WORKING WITH, WITH THEM AND TALKING WITH THEM AND, UH, JUST TRYING TO GET A GOOD SITUATION WITH THE NEIGHBORHOOD. 
          SURE. 
          UM, ONE OF THE THINGS THAT I SAW UP HERE WAS A SIGNIFICANT EMPHASIS ON NIGHTTIME ACTIVITY. 
          IT WAS MY UNDERSTANDING THE PARK WOULD BE CLOSED AT NIGHT. 
          SO MY ASSUMPTION IS, AS THESE ARE PLANNED ACTIVITIES THAT ARE CITY SPONSORED OR PARKS SPONSORED, IS THAT CORRECT? BECAUSE IT IS GOING TO BE SHUT AT NIGHT. 
          IS THAT RIGHT? THAT'S RIGHT. 
          I DON'T KNOW IF IT'LL BE 10 O'CLOCK 11 O'CLOCK, BUT NOT PAST 11, BUT IT'S OUR ATTENTION TO TOO. 
          SO IT'S NOT DUSK. 
          IT'S NOT, WE'LL BE, YEAH. 
          I MEAN, WE'RE UP TO, WE'RE JUST TRYING TO PROTECT THE ART AND, AND LET PEOPLE ENJOY THE PARK. 
          IT'LL BE VERY WELL LIT. 
          UH, SO I MEAN, THAT'S NEGOTIABLE. 
          I MEAN, WE CAN DO OKAY. 
          LET'S TRY. 
          AND I THINK THAT WE SHOULD GET THE INPUT OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD WHENEVER THAT COMES ABOUT AS WELL, AND CONTINUE TO GET, LIKE YOU HAVE BEEN GETTING THE IMPACT FROM THE NEIGHBORHOOD OR THE IMPACT ON THE NEIGHBORHOOD AND UNDERSTAND WHAT IT IS. 
          UM, AND, UH, AND I APPRECIATE THAT AND I KNOW THEY WILL TOO, GOING FORWARD. 
          EVERYTHING'S CHANGED, RIGHT. 
          EVEN THOUGH I SEE THIS AS GOOD CHANGE RIGHT NOW, BUT I THINK IT'S CHANGED. 
          I NEED TO BE CAREFUL. 
          MY QUESTIONS ARE DONE, SIR. 
          OKAY. 
          MY QUESTION IS YOU TALKED ABOUT THE EXTENSION OF THE POTENTIAL EXTENSION OF THE SPRING CREEK TRAIL. 
          AND THEN I'M JUST THINKING ABOUT 
          [00:25:01]
ALL OF OUR CITIZENS, CITIZENS WHO HAVE MOBILITY ISSUES. 
          HOW DO, HOW, HOW DO YOU VISION PEOPLE TO TRAVERSE THROUGHOUT THE PARK WITH IN WHEELCHAIRS, WHATEVER THEIR MOBILITY LIMITATION IS. 
          IT'LL BE, THERE'LL BE TRAILS OPEN TRAILS UP IN THE WOODS. 
          SOME OF THOSE WILL BE KIND OF A SOFT TYPE SURFACE, LIKE A REGULAR TRAIL, BUT SOME OF THEM WILL ALSO BE HARD SURFACE AND THEN THERE'LL BE HARD SURFACE TRAILS THROUGHOUT THE PARK. 
          SO, UH, ANY VIDEO YOU IT'S ADA, THEN THEY WILL BE ABLE TO GET AROUND AND SEE THE PARK. 
          OKAY. 
          VERY GOOD. 
          DID YOU HAVE A QUESTION? I JUST HAVE A COMMENT WHILE WE HAVE INTERESTED FOLKS HERE IN THE CHAMBERS AND HOPEFULLY WATCHING, AND CERTAINLY WE'LL HAVE CAPTURED THIS RECORDING. 
          AND SO WE CAN SHARE THAT WITH PEOPLE, BUT, UM, SINCE THIS DOES HAVE A LARGE PRICE TAG, UM, I, I DON'T WANT TO BE REMISS IN TELLING PEOPLE HOW THEY CAN CONTRIBUTE TO THE FUNDRAISING EFFORTS. 
          UM, BOTH WITH MATCHING FUNDS FOR ART PIECES, AS WELL AS DOLLARS. 
          AND SO JUST FOR POSTERITY'S PURPOSES, WHERE WOULD WE TELL THEM TO WRITE THOSE LARGE CHECKS? WELL, UH, WE'VE SET UP A COUPLE OF DIFFERENT ENTITIES, UM, AND HE HAD, UH, WE HAVEN'T DONE ANYTHING REALLY YET TO GO OUT AND GET THE WORD OUT, BUT THAT'S COMING QUICK SOON. 
          THAT'S WHY I WANT TO GET IT STARTED. 
          OKAY. 
          IS IT, DO I UNDERSTAND THERE'S GOING TO BE A WEBSITE AND A MARKETING MACHINE BEHIND THIS, AND SO THAT'S COMING. 
          YES. 
          I SEEN HIM AND I SAW SOME GRAY ARTWORK. 
          AND SO THAT, I'M ASSUMING THAT'S ALL PART OF IT. 
          YES. 
          THE WEBSITE IS LIVE AS OF NOW. 
          SO, UM, THE, THE UNCOMMON GROUND PARK.COM AT THIS POINT IN TIME, UM, THAT WILL BE A PLACE TO, TO OBVIOUSLY SEE UPDATES AND SIGN UP FOR EMAIL UPDATES, SORT OF AS A, AS A MAIN, UH, TOUCHPOINT. 
          BUT THEN OF COURSE, AS FAR AS FUNDRAISING GOES, WE WILL BE, THAT WILL BE KICKED OFF THE SUMMER, BOTH AT THE COMMUNITY LEVEL, AT THE CORPORATE LEVEL, UM, LIKE THAT. 
          SO WATCH THE WEBSITE SIGN UP FOR THE EMAILS. 
          YES. 
          THERE WILL BE WAYS THE UNCOMMON GROUND PARK ON INSTAGRAM AND OUR FACEBOOK. 
          SO THAT WILL ABSOLUTELY, WE WILL BE ADDING SOME OF THESE IMAGES. 
          UM, WE'LL BE RELEASING SOME OF THE SCULPTURE PIECES THEMSELVES OVER TIME. 
          AND THEN OF COURSE, AS WELL, KEEPING EVERYONE VERY WELL-INFORMED AS TO THE CONSTRUCTION PROGRESS, THE TIMELINE OF THE PROJECT AND STUFF LIKE THAT. 
          GREAT. 
          DO YOU HAVE AN ESTIMATED TIMELINE? WE'RE READY NOW? UH, THE TIMELINE WHERE WE'RE SAYING PROBABLY SPRING OF 23 AND  SO WE CAN ENJOY, UM, WE, WE, WE DO, I THINK RIGHT NOW OUR BIGGEST PROBLEM AS FAR AS TIMING IS, UH, WHAT I'M CONCERNED ABOUT IS, IS ALL THE PERMITS. 
          UH, WE'VE BEEN, UH, WAITING ALMOST FIVE WEEKS ON A DEMO PERMIT, UH, FOR THE, UH, EXISTING HOME. 
          AND I MEAN, IT'S VERY SIMPLE FORM, BUT WE DON'T HAVE IT, SO WE CAN'T TEAR IT DOWN SO WE CAN BUILD IT BACK. 
          UH, I ALSO WANT TO POINT OUT THAT, UH, THE CITY OF TULSA GAVE THE GATHERING PLACE, $65 MILLION WORTH OF INFRASTRUCTURE. 
          AND ONE OF THE PARKS IN DALLAS THAT, UH, IT'S ONLY 5.2 ACRES, BUT THE CITY OF DALLAS, UH, CONTRIBUTED. 
          AND IT, THAT 5.2 ACRES COST $110 MILLION. 
          UH, IT, UH, THE CITY OF DALLAS GAVE THEM $20 MILLION AND THE STATE GAVE THEM $20 MILLION. 
          SO THERE'S, UH, YOU KNOW, WE NEED TO HELP FROM EVERY ANGLE. 
          VERY GOOD. 
          ONE MORE. 
          I KNOW WE HAVE ANOTHER QUESTION HERE. 
          WELL, THANK YOU. 
          MA'AM COUNCIL MEMBER ASKED OURS IN MY QUESTION, THE PROJECT TIMELINE, DO YOU HOPE TO GET COST SUBSTANTIALLY STARTED IN SUBSTANTIALLY COMPLETE. 
          AND WHEN YOU SAY SPRING OF 23, IS THAT ALL THAT WE SEE UP HERE? IS THAT ALL THE BUILDINGS? YES, SIR. 
          OKAY. 
          YEAH. 
          WE PLAN TO BUILD IT ALL AT THE SAME TIME. 
          IS THERE A CRITICAL POINT? YOU'RE SAYING WE HAVE THE 58 MILLION THAT WE CAN GO FORWARD OR IS IT JUST, WE'RE GOING TO CONTINUE TO GROW THAT FUNDING AND THE PROJECTS GOING, WE WERE GOING TO CONTINUE? UH, IT, UH, I'M HOPEFUL. 
          I KNOW IN TALKING TO THE GATHERING PLACE THAT WHEN THEY WENT PUBLIC WITH EVERYTHING, 
          [00:30:01]
UH, THEY TOLD ME THAT CORPORATE TULSA REALLY STEPPED UP AND GOT ENTHUSED. 
          AND SO, YOU KNOW, AND I SAID TO HIM, WELL, THE CITY OF EDMOND DOESN'T HAVE THAT MUCH CORPORATE HOMES. 
          OF COURSE WHAT THEY SAID WAS YEAH. 
          BUT ASK THEM WHERE THEIR, THEIR EMPLOYEES LIVE. 
          SO I'M HOPING THAT CORPORATE OKLAHOMA WILL STEP UP AS WELL. 
          AND, UH, IT'S, WE DON'T HAVE THE MONEY, BUT WE'RE PRESSING ON, BUT WE'VE SPENT ABOUT $6 MILLION SO FAR, INCLUDING THE LAND. 
          UH, AND WE'VE GOT, LIKE I SAID, WE'VE RAISED, UH, FROM SEVERAL DIFFERENT SOURCES, ABOUT $15 MILLION. 
          VERY GOOD. 
          I WOULD BE REMISSED. 
          THERE'S A LOT OF PEOPLE IN HERE AND OTHER STAFF, THERE'S A LOT OF SUPPORTERS, BUT IS THERE ANYONE IN THE AUDIENCE HAS A, A COMMENT THEY WILL WANT TO MAKE NUN ME SEMI'S EVERY ONCE IN VERY SUPPORTIVE OF WHAT WE'RE TRYING TO DO, LIKE 30 SECONDS, I CAN'T, I CAN'T HELP BUT MENTION, I CAN'T THINK OF ANOTHER PRIVATE PROJECT IN EDMOND UP TO THIS POINT THAT HAS STARTED OUT WITH AT LEAST 15 MILLION IN THE BANK. 
          AND WE'RE AT THAT LEVEL NOW. 
          AND THEY WERE UP 95, 90 6,000 IN POPULATION. 
          AND WE KNOW WE HAVE A LOT OF CORPORATE PRESENCE HERE AS FAR AS EMPLOYEES AND LEADERSHIP. 
          UM, BUT I JUST THINK IT IT'S SO IMPRESSIVE THAT, THAT THEY'VE ALREADY HAD THAT TYPE OF COMMITMENT IN MINING THE LAND AND, AND MONEY IN THE BANK AND THE TEAM THAT'S HERE TODAY TO PRESENT THIS AND THE WORK THAT THEY'VE BEEN DOING, I THINK SHOWS A INCREDIBLE AMOUNT OF COMMITMENT AND WORK THAT'S ALREADY BEEN DONE IN THE PROJECT. 
          SO I'M IMPRESSED. 
          I'M COMPLETELY IMPRESSED BY THAT AND READY TO KEEP MOVING FORWARD. 
          THANK YOU SO VERY GOOD. 
          THANK YOU VERY MUCH. 
          THANK YOU, HAL. 
          AND THANK YOU TO RANDALL AIM. 
          NO, HE'S NOT HERE. 
          I KNOW HE'S BEEN A COP. 
          I KNOW IT'S I KNOW IT'S HURTING HIM. 
          THAT HE'S BE MAD. 
          HE'S WATCHING. 
          WELL, WE DO KNOW ONE THING THAT WE'RE ABLE TO FINISH NOW BECAUSE RANDALL IS NOT HERE. 
          ALRIGHT, NO OTHER QUESTIONS ON THIS ITEM. 
          WE CAN MOVE ON TO THE, UH, OUR, SINCE WE DO HAVE TWO PRESENTATIONS TODAY, UH, THANK YOU FOR ALL VERY MUCH FOR EVERYTHING YOU ALL ARE DOING THE PRESENTATION 
          [3. Presentation and discussion on the City of Edmond's Code Enforcement Department. ]
AND DISCUSSION OF THE CITY OF EDMOND CODE ENFORCEMENT DEPARTMENT. 
          GOOD AFTERNOON. 
          I'LL, UH, NOT HAVE ANY DELAY. 
          SINCE I FOUND OUT MY TIMELINE, I'VE BEEN FRANTICALLY TEARING PAGES ON MY PRESENTATION. 
          SO, UH, WE'LL SEE, UH, THE ENVIRONMENT IN WHICH A PERSON LIVES HAS A DIRECT IMPACT ON THEIR PHYSICAL AND MENTAL WELLBEING. 
          AND, UM, IT'S A PLEASURE TO WORK WITH CODE ENFORCEMENT HERE IN THE COMMUNITY COMMUNITY, UM, BECAUSE IT'S AN OUTSTANDING WAY TO IMPACT THAT PHYSICAL ENVIRONMENT IN WHICH OUR RESIDENTS LIVE. 
          AND I FIND THE BEST WAY TO UNDERSTAND WHAT CODE ENFORCEMENT DOES IS THROUGH PHOTOGRAPHS. 
          SO I'LL SHARE SOME PHOTOGRAPHS OF EXAMPLES AND SOME THINGS WE COMMONLY ENCOUNTER. 
          AND I'LL ALSO REVIEW OUR WORKFLOW AND SOME RECENT DATA AS I WANT TO SET THE TABLE FOR TODAY FOR A CONVERSATION ABOUT OUR, UH, OPPORTUNITIES AND ABOUT OUR PROCEDURES. 
          SO WITH THIS PHOTO, UM, IT'S WITH MOST OF OUR PHOTOS, IT'S PRETTY OBVIOUS WHAT THE ISSUE IS. 
          UM, SOMETIMES THOUGH IT'S NOT SO OBVIOUS, WE MAY GET A CALL ABOUT A PROPERTY IS ILLUSTRATED HERE ON THE RIGHT, AND MAYBE THEY HAVEN'T, WE NEEDED AROUND THE FENCE. 
          SO OUR INSPECTORS SOMETIMES HAVE TO MAKE JUDGMENT CALLS. 
          UM, AND TO DO THAT, WE TRY TO TRAIN THEM TO LOOK AT OVERALL, DOES THE PROPERTY SHOW ACTIVE PROPERTY MANAGEMENT? AND THAT'S JUST KIND OF A CRITERIA THAT WE ASK THEM TO THINK ABOUT WHEN THEY'RE MAKING THOSE JUDGMENT CALLS. 
          UM, THIS PHOTO SHOWS THE TALL GRASS AND WEEDS VIOLATION. 
          VERY TYPICAL. 
          THIS YARD LOOKS VERY DIFFERENT. 
          NOW THESE ARE ALL RESOLVED. 
          UM, TRASH IS ANOTHER COMMON VIOLATION WE ADDRESS WHEN COUNTER IN ALL SHAPES FORMS AND PLACES FROM PLACES ON VACANT PIECES OF LAND, WHERE PEOPLE ARE LIVING TO A NEW CONSTRUCTIONS AND LITERALLY EVERYWHERE IN BETWEEN. 
          UM, WE WORK IN OPERABLE VEHICLES HERE. 
          THIS WAS A PHOTOGRAPH, JUST A FEW BLOCKS FROM HERE. 
          [00:35:01]
THOSE HAVE SINCE ALL BEEN REMOVED, UNFORTUNATELY WE WORK SANITARY SUBARU, SANITARY, SEWER OVERFLOWS. 
          UM, IT'S SURPRISINGLY, BUT WE DO ENCOUNTER THAT. 
          UM, SOMETIMES PEOPLE WOULD DO NOTHING IF IT WASN'T FOR OUR INTERVENTION. 
          UM, HERE, WE'RE LOOKING AT A GREASE INTERCEPTOR. 
          THESE ARE INSTALLED IT, UM, PLACES THAT MIGHT GENERATE GREASE, SUCH AS RESTAURANTS, BARS, DAYCARES, OUR OWN CONCESSION STANDS. 
          UM, WE ROUTINELY AND REGULARLY INSPECT THOSE TO MAKE SURE THAT GREASE ISN'T PASSING FROM THEIR ESTABLISHMENT INTO OUR SANITARY SEWER SYSTEM AND INTO OUR WATER TREATMENT PLANT. 
          SO OUR INSPECTOR WILL GO OUT PROBE THAT DELICIOUSNESS RIGHT THERE AND, UM, SEE HOW IT'S WORKING. 
          THIS ONE, OBVIOUSLY NOT WORKING WELL. 
          AND EVERY BIT OF GREASE SAY GENERATES, PROBABLY PASSING RIGHT PAST AND ENTERING OUR SEWER SYSTEM. 
          SO WE WOULD WORK WITH THEM TO MAKE SURE THAT IT'S CLEANED OUT GRAFFITI. 
          WE FIND THAT IF IT EXISTS MORE TRENT, THAT TENDS TO ATTRACT MORE. 
          SO WE TRY TO WORK WITH SEVERAL OR MANY OF OUR OTHER APARTMENTS TO MAKE SURE THIS IS, UH, ATTENDED TO AND REMOVED AS PROMPTLY AS POSSIBLE UNSECURED STRUCTURES. 
          UM, WE WILL HAVE THESE BOARDED UP IF THEY EXIST. 
          OF COURSE, AFTER THE APPROPRIATE NOTICES, GIVEN I'M SURPRISED HOW MANY STAGNANT AND UNSECURED POOLS WE ENCOUNTER. 
          THESE BECOME A BREEDING GROUND FOR MOSQUITOES AND A POTENTIAL RISK FOR, UH, IF BARRICADES ARE NOT APPROPRIATELY PROVIDED. 
          NOW, WE DON'T JUST GO CHECKING EVERYONE'S BACKYARD. 
          AS YOU MAY GUESS, THIS PROPERTY WAS LIKELY VACANT. 
          UM, AND THIS IS ACTUALLY A SOURCE OF A ISSUE. 
          SOMETIMES WE'LL GET A COMPLAINT. 
          SOMEBODY WILL CALL IN SOMETHING THAT THEY CAN SEE FROM AN AREA THAT WE MAY NOT HAVE A LEGAL RIGHT TO ENTER INTO AND TO VIEW THAT. 
          SO, UM, SOMETIMES WE MAY ENCOUNTER AN ISSUE WHERE WE CAN'T HELP A RESIDENT BECAUSE WE CAN'T SEE IT FROM A LEGAL VANTAGE POINT. 
          IN WHICH CASE WE WOULD NOT WORK AT ALL THE ISSUES. 
          I JUST MENTIONED. 
          WE GET THOSE RESOLVED ALMOST EVERY TIME AS WE'LL SEE IN A MINUTE, A VAST MAJORITY OF OUR SITUATIONS ARE RESOLVED THROUGH VOLUNTARY COMPLIANCE. 
          UM, THAT'S THE MEANING THE PROPERTY OWNER OR TENANT TAKES, UH, ACTIONS TO CREATE THE VIOLATION. 
          UH, IN THIS INSTANCE, THE CLEANUP WAS DONE BY THE CITY, WHICH TIME A BILL WOULD HAVE BEEN AND WAS SENT TO THE PROPERTY OWNER. 
          AND A LEAN PROCESS WOULD BE STARTED, UM, ON THAT PIECE OF PROPERTY. 
          NOW, IF THE OWNER DOESN'T PAY THE SEED DIRECTLY FOR THOSE COSTS AND FEES, AND THAT'S WHEN THE LIEN WOULD BE FILED, I'D LIKE TO POINT OUT, UM, THAT ABATEMENT LIENS DO NOT FORCE ANY PROPERTY TO BE SOLD. 
          SINCE THIS IS SITUATION WE ABATED, I ACTUALLY DO HAVE A BEFORE AND AFTER PICTURE. 
          UM, NOTICE THE TREE HERE IN THE MIDDLE, THE NEXT SLIDE, YOU'LL SEE IT SHOW UP AS WELL. 
          YEAH. 
          UM, AS I PREPARED THIS PRESENTATION, I WAS STRUCK BY THE FACT THAT WE DON'T HAVE A WHOLE LOT OF AFTER PICTURES. 
          UM, WHEN CODE ENFORCEMENT DOES THEIR JOB, DOES THEIR WORK, UH, THINGS JUST GET BACK TO LOOKING LIKE THEY SHOULD. 
          SO IT'S EASY TO MISS THE ROLE THAT CODE ENFORCEMENT HAS PLAYED IN SOME OF THE THINGS THEY OVER UNDERTAKE OVER THE LAST FEW YEARS, WE HAVE FOCUSED ON ADDRESSING DILAPIDATED STRUCTURES. 
          HERE ARE A FEW EXAMPLES OF THAT EFFORT. 
          THESE OUTCOMES ARE A RESULT OF CHALLENGING OURSELVES TO IDENTIFY STRUCTURES THAT ARE VACANT AND ARE LIKELY, UM, AND THAT ARE UNOCCUPIED AND THAT ARE, UM, NOT FIT FOR OCCUPANCY THIS IN THEIR CURRENT CONDITION. 
          AT LEAST THIS STRUCTURE WAS ON THE WEST SECOND STREET PHOTO ON THE RIGHT IS THE SIDE AND THE REAR YARD, UH, NOTICE THE DRIVEWAY HERE IN THE LEFT. 
          AND YOU'LL SEE THIS AGAIN IN THE AFTER PICTURE THAT IS HERE. 
          SO THE STRUCTURE IS GONE NOW AFTER WORKING WITH THE OWNERS OF THAT PROPERTY. 
          LIKEWISE, THIS WAS HERE ON, UH, EAST FOURTH STREET IS COVERED WITH A TARP FOR MANY YEARS, UH, WORKING WITH THE PROPERTY OWNER WHO LIVED AT A DIFFERENT LOCATION. 
          THE HOUSE HAS SINCE BEEN REMOVED AND THIS AFTER STARTING CONVERSATIONS WITH THE PROPERTY OWNER OF THIS PROPERTY ON UNIVERSITY, UM, THIS IS CURRENTLY UNDER CONSTRUCTION FOR IMPROVEMENTS TO BE MADE TO AT THIS. 
          I WANT TO TALK A LITTLE BIT ABOUT A WORKFLOW AND DATA, UM, TO HELP US THINK ABOUT, ARE WE SPENDING OUR TIME DOING THE RIGHT THINGS? ARE WE DOING ENOUGH OF THEM? SO ON AND SO FORTH DID DURING THIS PRESENTATION, I'LL USE THE TERM CASE. 
          AND WHAT I'M REFERRING TO THERE IS WE WENT THROUGH THE PROCESS ABOUT VERIFYING THAT THE VIOLATION EXISTS AND WE'VE MAILED NOTICE TO THE OWNER AND OR OCCUPANT OF THAT PROPERTY. 
          THAT'S WHAT I MEAN. 
          WHEN I SAY CASE, YOU'LL SEE THAT THE DATA SHOWS THAT WE VALUE PROACTIVE ENFORCEMENT. 
          IF WE CAN SAVE A RESONANT FROM HAVING TO REPORT AN ISSUE, WE CONSIDER THAT GOOD CUSTOMER SERVICE, 
          [00:40:02]
OUR WORKFLOW, A LITTLE STRAIGHT, THE, UM, TOOLS THAT WE USE TO GET OUR JOB DONE. 
          THE MOST IMPORTANT ASSET ORGANIZATION OF COURSE, IS OUR PEOPLE. 
          OUR STAFF MEMBERS HAVE TO HAVE THEM HERE WITH ME TODAY. 
          I'VE BEEN SMITH IS A SUPERVISOR OVER OUR INSPECTORS, AND MEGAN IS OUR, UH, IF YOU CALL THE FRONT DESK, SHE'S GOING TO BE THERE RUNNING OUR OFFICE AND TAKING THOSE CALLS IN THE DETAILS. 
          UM, AND IT'S IMPORTANT BECAUSE IT TAKES A PERSON WHO HAS A HEART FOR THE COMMUNITY AND UNDERSTANDING THAT THEY'RE DEALING WITH SOME VERY PERSONAL ISSUES AS THEY, UH, ADMINISTER OUR ORDINANCES TO OUR, AND THIS, IT MAY BE A FRONT YARD. 
          THAT'S TALL OF GRASS, TALL, TALL WEEDS AND GRASS. 
          UM, BUT TO THAT RESIDENT, IT MAY BE FRUSTRATION OVER A BROKEN LAWNMOWER AND NO ABILITY TO REPAIR IT. 
          SO WE RECOGNIZE THE ORDINANCE VIOLATIONS, COMMONLY COINCIDE WITH LIFE CHALLENGES. 
          AND WE SEE THAT NOT AS AN EXCUSE, BUT A REALITY THAT WE NEED TO RESPOND TO IN A MANNER THAT BALANCES OUR RECOGNITION OF THOSE CHALLENGES, CHALLENGES, UM, WITH THE NEED FOR RESOLUTION, BECAUSE THEY'RE BOTH VERY IMPORTANT. 
          WE DO VIOLIN, WE DO VALUE, VOLUNTARY COMPLIANCE, MEANING THE OWNER OF PROPERTY STEPPED UP. 
          LIKE I SAID EARLIER TO TAKE CARE OF AN ISSUE HERE, I'VE MAPPED OUT OUR CASES AND SERVICE REQUESTS FOR THE FIRST THREE MONTHS OF THIS CALENDAR YEAR. 
          ALL OF THESE REQUESTS RECEIVED BY CITIZENS ARE INDICATED BY THE YELLOW DOTS. 
          I'M SORRY, THE COLORS NOT SUPER GREAT, EASY TO DISTINGUISH THERE. 
          UM, AND ALL OF OUR CASES THAT WE STARTED IN THIS THREE MONTHS IS INDICATED BY THE PURPLE DOTS. 
          THIS IS OUR SLOW MONTHS. 
          UM, THIS ILLUSTRATES A COUPLE OF THINGS TO ME, ONE WE'RE ALL OVER THE MAP. 
          WE SEE QUITE A FEW YELLOW DOTS SHOWING UP. 
          SO WE WENT OUT AND THERE WAS MAYBE, UH, NO VIOLATION FOUND OR RESOLVED THE ISSUE THROUGH EDUCATION AND OUTREACH. 
          WE SEE QUITE A FEW MORE PURPLE DOTS INDICATING OUR, UH, AMOUNT OF PROACTIVE EFFORTS THAT ARE TAKING THIS CHART INDICATES THE NUMBER OF FORMAL CASES OPEN IN A YEAR. 
          AND THE NUMBER OF SERVICE REQUESTS RECEIVED IN THAT SAME YEAR. 
          AS YOU SEE ON THE PREVIOUS MAP, NOT ALL SERVICE REQUESTS SHOWN IN KIND OF ORANGE HERE, UH, RESULT IN CASES. 
          WHEN WE THINK ABOUT MANAGING CODE ENFORCEMENT, ATTRACTIVE THING THAT YOU MAY THINK TO LOOK AT WOULD BE THIS AMOUNT OF CODE ENFORCEMENT CASES. 
          AND THE BLUE PERSONALLY, I'VE LEARNED TO USE THAT CAUTIOUSLY AS I BELIEVE, OUTREACH AND EDUCATION IS A SIGNIFICANT PART OF THE FUTURE OF CODE ENFORCEMENT. 
          UM, ALSO CAN BE VERY IMPACTED BY STORM EVENTS OR GROWING CONDITIONS. 
          IF WE HAD A PARTICULAR RAIN YEAR, WALKED IT THROUGH THESE CHARTS, UM, SORRY FOR THE SKEW ON THOSE. 
          REMEMBER THE SERVICE REQUEST. 
          I MENTIONED THE CHART ON THE LEFT INDICATES THE TYPE OF ISSUES WHERE RESIDENTS ARE ASKING US TO LOOK INTO OVER 75% OF THOSE ARE TRASH, TALL GRASS, WEEDS, AND OBJECTS IN THE RIGHT AWAY. 
          85% OF ALL SERVICE REQUESTS RECEIVED FALL IN THESE FIVE CATEGORIES. 
          THE CHART ON THE RIGHT INDICATES THE TYPES OF CASES WE WORK. 
          UM, YOU'LL NOTICE 75%, AGAIN COMES FROM TRASH, TALL GRASS AND WEEDS AND OBJECTS IN THE RIGHT OF WAY. 
          90% OF THE CASES WE WORK FALL WITHIN THESE FIVE CATEGORIES. 
          THIS SHOWS ME HOW THIS SHOWS ME THAT WE WERE WORKING THE TYPES OF ISSUES THAT OUR RESIDENTS EXPECT US TO WORK AT THIS TIME. 
          I'LL TOUCH ON OUR WORKFLOW JUST A LITTLE BIT. 
          LET'S ASSUME A RESIDENT CALLS IN TODAY RIGHT NOW AND ASKED US TO GO LOOK AT AN ISSUE THAT INSPECTION MAY OCCUR SOMETIME TODAY, MOST LIKELY TOMORROW, BUT SOMETIME IN THE VERY NEAR FUTURE. 
          IF AN ISSUE IS OBSERVED, WE'LL GO THROUGH THE PROCESS OF MAILING NOTICE TO THE RESIDENT AND INFORMING THEY NEED INFORMING THEM THAT THEY NEED TO CORRECT THE ISSUE WITHIN 10 DAYS. 
          BUT WHEN THAT 10 DAYS IS UP HERE, I CALL IT THREE INSPECTION. 
          THE INSPECTOR HAS A DECISION TO MAKE, THEY CAN DECIDE TO EITHER EXTEND THE CASE ADDITIONAL TIME, ISSUE A TICKET, OR SCHEDULE AN ABATEMENT AS THEY'RE DECIDING WHAT COURSE OF ACTION TO TAKE THEY'LL CONSIDER IF THEY'VE HEARD FROM THE PROPERTY OWNER AND THE TOOL THAT, UM, MIGHT GET THIS RESOLVED AS QUICKLY AS POSSIBLE, BUT LET'S THINK THROUGH THOSE OPTIONS. 
          SO, UM, WILL YOU SEE TICKET LISTED UP THERE THAT MAY PROVIDE, BUT THAT'S NOT GOING TO GET THE GRASS CUT, OBVIOUSLY. 
          UM, THERE'LL BE THINKING ABOUT THE TIME IMPLICATIONS THAT, THAT, THAT HAS YOU SEE A TICKET, UH, AN ARRAIGNMENT RELATED TO THAT TICKET, MAYBE 45 TO 60 DAYS OUT. 
          AND IF THE SITUATION'S AWAITING ARRAIGNMENT, WE TAKE NO FURTHER ACTION UNTIL THAT'S BEEN HEARD ABATEMENT. 
          UM, WE RISK NOT RECOUPING THE COST. 
          WE RISKED ESSENTIALLY BECOME CARETAKERS OF THE PROPERTY. 
          WE TYPICALLY USE THESE ONLY ON VACANT PROPERTY. 
          UM, BUT 
          [00:45:01]
IF THAT WAS THE COURSE OF ACTION TAKEN AT THIS POINT, OUR CURRENT CONTRACT ALLOWS 12 DAYS FOR ABATEMENT. 
          WE'D GO BACK AND CHECK THAT ON JOEL, UH, IN THIS CASE, JULY 6TH, TO SEE IF THAT ABATEMENT'S BEEN COMPLETED, UH, IF NOT SOONER NOW, GRANTED TYPICALLY OUR CONTRACTOR GETS TO IT QUICKER THAN THAT. 
          UH, BUT NOT ALWAYS. 
          AND THE THIRD OPTION IS VOLUNTARY COMPLIANCE, WHICH COMES AT THE TIME OF COST. 
          AND IT IS USUALLY OUR MOST LABOR INTENSIVE, UH, SINCE ISSUES CAN POSSESS LONGTERM AND GET DRUG OUT. 
          UH, SO AS I SAY, THERE, I'VE NOTED THE RANGE OF DAYS THAT EACH OPTION MAY TAKE ALL THE TIME. 
          WE RUN INTO THE REALITY THAT WHEN A PERSON CALLED IT IN TODAY, AS AN EXAMPLE, THEY PROBABLY BEEN WAITING AND IRRITATED WITH IT FOR A WHILE ALREADY HERE, YOU CAN SEE A CHART OF THE DURATION OF OUR CASES, THE AVERAGE TIME FOR WHEN WE START A CASE TO WHEN WE ACTUALLY VERIFY RESOLUTION IS 21 DAYS INDICATED HERE IN THIS PEAK, AS YOU CAN SEE THIS ILLUSTRATES THAT, UM, WE GET 99% OF OUR CASES THAT WE START FORMALLY RESOLVED THROUGH VOLUNTARY COMPLIANCE. 
          THE OTHER 1% IS MADE UP THROUGH TICKETING OR ABATEMENTS, OR I SHOULD SAY, AND OR ABATEMENTS HERE, WE SEE THE DOLLAR AMOUNTS OF FUNDS SPENT ON BASE ABATEMENT BY CALENDAR YEAR. 
          THIS YEAR, WE'LL JUST HAVE JUST OVER $22,000 THAT WE HAVE SPENT ON ABATEMENTS. 
          UM, FOR PERSPECTIVE OF THE 18 TICKETS THAT WERE WRITTEN THIS LAST YEAR BY CODE ENFORCEMENT. 
          HERE'S 19 YEARS OF DATA CHARTING THE NUMBER OF TICKETS WRITTEN BY CODE ENFORCEMENT. 
          AND IN CLOSING, I'LL TOUCH BRIEFLY ON SOME CHANGES OVER THE LAST COUPLE OF YEARS. 
          AND SOME THINGS I CURRENTLY SEE ON OUR RADAR IN THE PAST THE LETTER WE MAILED OUT GAVE FIVE DAYS NOTICE WE COMMONLY HEARD FROM RESIDENTS THAT THEY GOT THE LETTER JUST A DAY OR TWO BEFORE THEY WERE SUPPOSED TO HAVE THE ISSUE RESOLVED. 
          SO WE CHANGED THAT NOTICE TO 10 DAYS TO COINCIDE WITH STATE AND LOCAL LAWS AS HIGHLIGHTED IN SOME PREVIOUS EXAMPLES, WE'VE, UH, BEEN WORKING ON THE VACANT STRUCTURES AND DILAPIDATED STRUCTURES TO ADDRESS THOSE WITH THE PROPERTY OWNERS WE INVESTED IN OUTREACH AND EDUCATION, UM, BY GOING TO PUBLIC COMMUNITY EVENTS AND CONNECTING, UH, RESIDENTS TO POTENTIAL RESOURCES. 
          LOOKING AHEAD, I BELIEVE THAT THERE IS A OPPORTUNITY OPPORTUNITY TO PERIODICALLY AND SYSTEMATICALLY INSPECT MULTIFAMILY PROPERTIES, POTENTIALLY USING THE INTERNATIONAL PROPERTY MAINTENANCE CODE, WHICH IS A CODE THAT OUR, WE HAVE ADOPTED BY ORDINANCE A NUMBER OF YEARS AGO. 
          UH, LASTLY, AS I MENTIONED, EARLY, EARLIER, ORDINANCE VIOLATIONS ARE COMMONLY COINCIDE WITH LIFE CHALLENGES. 
          AND IT'S NOT CERTAINLY, IT'S CERTAINLY NOT ALWAYS THE CASE, BUT WHEN THAT IS THE CASE, IT REALLY FEELS LIKE WE MAY NOT HAVE A COMPLETELY DEVELOPED SET OF TOOLS TO HELP DEAL WITH THOSE SITUATIONS. 
          OUR WORK IS ONLY A REFLECTION OF THE COMMUNITY. 
          WE CAN DO NOTHING, UM, ON OUR OWN, BUT WE DO WANT TO WORK TO MAINTAIN, IMPROVE THE ENVIRONMENT IN WHICH OUR RESIDENTS LIVE. 
          UM, SO WITH THAT, I WANT TO THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORT AS WE WORK TO DO THAT. 
          UM, AND AS ALWAYS, I'M INTERESTED TO HEAR YOUR THOUGHTS AND, UH, CERTAINLY ANY QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS. 
          THANK YOU, RYAN QUESTIONS, COMMENTS. 
          I KNOW THAT FROM I, UH, ONE OF THE INQUIRIES I GET OFTEN, ESPECIALLY FOR MORE 33 CHRISTIAN PROBABLY DOES THE SAME. 
          WE GET FROM NOISE AND SMELL AND NOISE SOUND OR SMELL IT. 
          THAT'S NOT WE SINCE WAR THREE WAR, WHAT FOUR WERE ONES THAT ONLY ONE THAT HAS A BOARD OR ANOTHER CITY THAT PERIPHERAL AREA THERE WE, I KNOW, BUT I THINK THEY EVER WENT UP TO, WE GET CALLS BECAUSE PEOPLE THINK IT'S EDMOND. 
          AND, UM, WELL, MY KID GOES TO EVAN'S SCHOOLS, MAYOR THAT'S RIGHT. 
          THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT THEY SAY. 
          UM, AND SO HOW DO WE ALWAYS LOOK FOR HELP AND TRY TO, HOW TO ADDRESS THAT? BECAUSE I JUST DON'T WANT TO FEEL LIKE WE'RE JUST BLOWING THE PERSON OFF, BUT I I'VE GIVEN THEM THAT THEY'RE THE CODE ENFORCEMENT NUMBER FOR OKLAHOMA CITY. 
          I'VE GIVEN THEM THE RESPECTIVE COUNCIL PERSON'S NAME DOWN THERE, UH, AND ALL THAT. 
          BUT THEN WHEN WE GET TO LARGER THINGS THAT ARE STARTING TO BORDER OR COMMUNITY THAT CREATE MORE SMELL AND SOUND, HAVE THAT INFRINGE INTO OUR EDMUND, HAS THERE EVER BEEN ANY THOUGHT ON HOW TO ADDRESS THAT? GOOD, THE SMELL. 
          AND BECAUSE WE HAVE A WAR THREE, WE HAVE, UH, A, UH, DOG PURINA 
          [00:50:01]
MANUFACTURER. 
          WE HAVE A COFFEE MANUFACTURER AND, UM, BOTH OF THEM, WELL, THE, THE DOLL MANUFACTURER CREATES SMELL AND A SOUND THAT IS ATROCIOUS AT THREE O'CLOCK IN THE MORNING. 
          UH, YEAH. 
          THAT'S, UM, POINT WELL TAKEN. 
          I DON'T BELIEVE THAT'S AN AREA THAT, THAT WE CURRENTLY HAVE, UM, TOOLS TO ADDRESS. 
          SO DO YOU ALL RECEIVE CALLS FROM RESIDENTS WHO ARE OUTSIDE AND THE, AND THE COMPLAINT IS OUTSIDE THE CITY LIMITS AND DO YOU DIRECT THEM THE SAME AS WE DO TO OKLAHOMA CITY? OR I GUESS THAT'S PRETTY MUCH IT. 
          ABSOLUTELY. 
          YES. 
          WE'LL GET, UM, THEIR ACTION DESK DOWN THERE THAT WE REFER THEM TO, UH, WHEN THEY ARE OUTSIDE OF THE CITY, TRY TO HELP THEM OUT ANY WAY WE CAN GET IN CORRUPT PLACE, BUT WE HAVEN'T ACTUALLY CALLED THEM DIRECTLY, LIKE, HEY, RIGHT BY US, THIS HAS HAPPENED. 
          UM, NO, NOT TYPICALLY, NO. 
          I DID HAVE SOMEONE CALL ME ABOUT TRASH THAT WAS IN OKLAHOMA CITY. 
          AND THEY, SHE SAID, EVERYBODY JUST KEEPS TELLING ME TO CALL SOMEONE. 
          I SAID, OKAY. 
          SO I CALLED THEM AND SAID, YOU NEED TO CALL THIS PERSON. 
          AND SHE SAID, THEN IT HAPPENED THEN NICE. 
          BUT THAT COULD BE A LOT. 
          IT IS. 
          AND, UM, YEAH, SHE DIDN'T EVEN LIVE THERE. 
          SHE JUST DROVE BY IT AND WAS LIKE, THIS IS JUST TERRIBLE. 
          I SAID, OKAY, WE'LL SEE WHAT WE CAN DO. 
          I WOULD SEE THAT AS A BALANCE OR US WOULD YOU WANT TO EXTEND THAT GOOD SERVICE TO, EVEN IF FOLKS DON'T LIVE WITHIN OUR MUNICIPAL BOUNDARY, BUT I DO WANT TO FOCUS ON OUR OPERATIONS. 
          WELL, AND I THINK SHE LIVED IN EDMOND AND HAD TO DRIVE BY IT, OR IT WAS THAT A GAS STATION OR SOMETHING. 
          SO, UM, SHE WAS JUST VERY FRUSTRATED AND I THOUGHT, WELL, THIS IS AN EASY FIVE MINUTE FIX FOR A FRUSTRATION, BUT, BUT IT'S, IT'S A LOT. 
          YES. 
          YEAH. 
          ARE YOU STILL ON VARYING RIGHT ACROSS FROM IT? AND IT'S RIGHT. 
          IT'S REALLY BAD POINT. 
          SO RYAN, YOU GET THE ONES THAT ARE, THAT YOU SHOWED US ARE HIGH GRASS LAWNS, AND HE MIGHT CALL THE GENERAL VARIETY AND WE KNOW YOU GET A LOT OF THEM. 
          AND ESPECIALLY IN THE SPRING, I'M SURE ABOUT NOW WHEN PEOPLE WAIT A LITTLE BIT LONGER TO FIRE UP THEIR LAWN MOWERS AND, AND THAT SEEMS TO HAPPEN EVERY YEAR, BUT LET'S TALK FOR A SECOND ABOUT THE BIG ONES AND ONE THAT WE'VE, WE'VE DEALT WITH A COUPLE OF THEM AND, AND, AND ARE RIGHT NOW, BUT IT SEEMS TO BE A TWO OR THREE OR FOUR YEAR, UM, RELATIONSHIP WITH THAT PROPERTY. 
          AND NO DOUBT, IT'S A LOT OF RESOURCES AND IT'S A LOT OF YOUR TIME. 
          AND, AND MY, WHERE WE COME INTO PLAY IS WHERE WE'RE REPRESENTING ANOTHER PROPERTY OWNER ON THE SAME STREET AND THEY'RE, AND THEY'VE PROBABLY TRIED TO BE PATIENT FOR AS LONG AS THEY CAN BE. 
          AND THEN THEY START TALKING ABOUT PROPERTY VALUES AND THE STRESS AND, AND JUST UNHAPPINESS AND YOU, AND YOU AGREE WITH THEM AND YOU CAN'T HELP. 
          BUT DO THAT. 
          DO I KNOW YOU HAVE, I KNOW YOU AND MR. MURDOCH, AND THERE'S A PROCESS THERE TO, TO, TO TRY TO, TO TRY TO SOLVE THAT ISSUE AT, AT, AT THE MOMENT. 
          IS THERE, IS THERE ANYTHING THAT YOU NEED FROM US THAT COULD, COULD MAKE THAT BETTER? YEAH. 
          IN OUR POLICY, IN OUR, AS WE GET LARGER, OR IF YOU'RE GETTING MORE PHONE CALLS OR MORE OF THOSE INSTANCES, AND WE MAY BE, NEED TO CRACK DOWN A LITTLE BIT MORE AND YOU, YOU NEED US TO DO THAT. 
          UM, I JUST WANT TO, I, I DON'T KNOW IF THAT'S, WHAT'S ON YOUR MIND, UH, OR IN YOUR VISION FOR THE DEPARTMENT, BUT, UM, I SENSE IT A LITTLE BIT AND, UH, WANT TO GIVE YOU MY SUPPORT THAT IF, IF YOU NEED SOMETHING FROM US, POLICY-WISE JUST LET US KNOW. 
          OKAY. 
          THANK YOU FOR THAT. 
          UM, IT'S HARD TO KNOW WHAT SOME OF THOSE ANSWERS ARE TO GET THINGS DEALT WITH. 
          WHEN WE KNOW A LOT OF TIMES IT NOT COME DOWN TO A MENTAL HEALTH ISSUE AS A ROOT CAUSE OR CONTRIBUTING FACTOR. 
          UM, WHAT I WANT TO ASSURE WHETHER IT'S CITY COUNCIL OR THE COURTS, IS THAT WE'VE DONE EVERYTHING WE CAN WITH THAT RESIDENT AND TRIED TO ALLOW AND CREATE EVERY OPPORTUNITY WE CAN FOR VOLUNTARY COMPLIANCE BEFORE IT GETS TO THIS POINT. 
          UM, AS WE THOUGHT ABOUT THIS AND DISCUSS THIS WITH SOME OF MY STAFF MEMBERS, WE REALIZED THAT IT'S COMMON FOR THE THINGS 
          [00:55:01]
YOU ALL HEAR ABOUT TO HEAR ABOUT, TO BE THINGS WE'VE ALREADY WORKED OR HAVE ALREADY HAD TICKETS ON, OR HAVE ALREADY ABATED. 
          UM, NOT SAY IT'S NOT STILL A PROBLEM, BUT IT DOES BECOME A CYCLE. 
          AND, UM, HOW WELCOME, HELPED FIGURE OUT WHAT THE ANSWER IS TO THAT. 
          WHAT DO YOU DO WITH THE FOLKS WHO, LIKE YOU SAID, MAYBE FINANCIAL AID, THEY DON'T HAVE A LAWNMOWER OR IT'S BROKEN, THEY CAN'T FIX IT. 
          WHAT'S AN OUTLET FOR THEM. 
          DO YOU GUYS HAVE SOMETHING THAT YOU DO FOR THEM OR IS WE TRY TO CONNECT THEM TO OUTSIDE RESOURCES? WE, UM, KEEP A CURRENT RESOURCE LIST. 
          MAYBE IT'S SOME GROUP THAT WANTS TO VOLUNTEER OR SOME AID OF SOME SORT AND WE'LL PROVIDE THAT LITERATURE TO THEM. 
          YES. 
          MA'AM ANOTHER SCENARIO THAT WE GO THROUGH. 
          UH, IT'S ON A CYCLE AND AS WE'RE GOING THROUGH IT, IT NOW IT'S, IT'S A POLITICAL SEASON AND SIGNS ARE PIPING UP EVERYWHERE AND MEDIUMS. AND, UH, I SAW COMMUNITY IMAGE OUT THE OTHER DAY. 
          AND WHEN I WENT BY THE FIRST TIME, THERE WERE A LOT OF SIGNS IN THE AREA. 
          AND THEN WHEN I DROVE BY A FEW HOURS LATER, THEY WERE GONE AND I'M LIKE, UH, SOMEBODY HAS BEEN OUT AND SOME OF THEM ARE EVEN THE LARGER SIDE. 
          SO I'M WONDERING WHY WERE THEY TAKEN DOWN BECAUSE OF POTENTIAL LINE OF SIGHT ISSUES OR ARE BECAUSE ALL OF THEM WEREN'T TAKEN DOWN. 
          AND SO I WAS TRYING TO TRY AND FIGURE OUT WHAT WAS THE, THE TOTAL WITH TWO THINGS? WHAT WAS IT, WHAT IS THE TOTAL RATIONALE FOR HOW WE COMMUNICATE THAT TO THE POLITICIANS THAT ARE OUT THERE AND THE CITIZENS, THEN HOW DO WE REACT ALSO TO IT, THE ORDINANCE PROHIBITS THOSE TYPES OF SIGNS TO BE PUT IN THE RIGHT OF WAY AND THE PUBLIC RIGHT OF WAY. 
          SO IF THEY'RE IN THE PUBLIC RIGHT AWAY, UM, WE TRY TO REMOVE THOSE FEW YEARS AGO, THERE WAS A POLICY ESTABLISHED TO, IF THEY'RE ON THE FAR SIDE OF THE SIDEWALK TO LEAVE THEM, UM, WE NEED TO FIX THAT. 
          ACTUALLY, I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR AN IN-BETWEEN OF ELECTION CYCLES TO CHANGE BACK TO WHERE WE DO WORK. 
          JUST IF IT'S IN A RIGHT AWAY, WE REMOVE IT. 
          SO THAT WE'RE CONSISTENT FROM THE CURB. 
          IT'S 30, IT VARIES TREMENDOUSLY THROUGH TOWN. 
          I USE 12 FOOT AS A RULE OF THUMB, BUT IT CAN CERTAINLY BE MUCH MORE THAN THAT. 
          SO, AND SO THAT IS A BIT OF A CHALLENGE OR PEOPLE PLACING SIGNS TO KNOW WHERE IT IS LEGAL CAUSE HOW DO YOU KNOW WHERE THE RIGHT OF WAY IS? IT'S YOU KNOW, HOW, HOW WE KNOW IS WE LOOK AT INDICATORS WHERE FENCE ARE, WHERE EXPANSION JOINTS IN CONCRETE IS, UM, AND, AND OUR MAPPING SYSTEM, BUT TO A PERSON WANTING TO STICK A SIGN OUT AND SUPPORT A CANDIDATE. 
          ABSOLUTELY. 
          HOW DO THEY KNOW? SO, UM, OUR INTENTION, WHAT WE WOULD LIKE TO START IS TO PROACTIVELY REACH OUT TO EACH CANDIDATE WHEN THEY FILE FOR OFFICE, UM, AND PROVIDE THEM SOME STANDARD INFORMATION ON THAT. 
          SO IS THERE WHO, LIKE, IF SOMEONE WERE RUNNING AND THEY WANTED TO CONTACT THE CITY TO FIND OUT THAT INFORMATION, WOULD THEY CALL CODE ENFORCEMENT AND ASK FOR A MAP? OR HOW DOES THAT WORK? THEY WOULD CALL CODE ENFORCEMENT AND ASK FOR, WE DO HAVE A RESOURCE IT'S KIND OF A VISUAL GUIDE ACTUALLY IN THIS ILLUSTRATE. 
          I DIDN'T HAVE SOME, BUT I COULDN'T IMAGINE A WAY, AN EFFECTIVE WAY TO PROVIDE THEM A MAP OF ALL THE RIGHT OF WAYS. 
          SO WHEN YOU SAY A VISUAL TOOL, I'M NOT UNDERSTANDING, WELL, WE WILL HAVE A PICTURE OF A STREET AND WHERE SIGNS CAN GO A TYPICAL STREET AND WHERE SIGNS CAN GO AND WHERE THEY CAN'T ALL OVER THE CITY THAT WOULD APPLY TO MOST SITUATIONS, BUT NOT ALL THE SITUATIONS. 
          WOW. 
          OKAY. 
          WELL, IF ANYTHING, THAT WOULD GIVE THEM, IT'S A GUIDELINE, IT'S ALMOST AMUSING. 
          IT'S THIS THING WHERE YOU SEE IT, WHERE SIGNS DISAPPEAR. 
          AND THE FIRST THING THAT THAT GROUP THINKS IS OTHERS. 
          THERE ARE STUDENTS AND ANYBODY THAT'S RAN FOR OFFICE KNOWS WHAT I MEAN, KNOWS WHAT HAPPENED IS THEY WERE PROBABLY IN THE WRONG SPOT TO GET POOLED BY CODE ENFORCEMENT. 
          AND SO IF ANYTHING, IF SIGNS START DISAPPEARING, UM, THEY WOULD KNOW WHO TO CONTACT AND SAY, HEY, DID Y'ALL, CAN WE COME GET SOME SIGNS? OR DID YOU GET THEM TYPICALLY, IF TYPICALLY WE DON'T KEEP POLITICAL SIDES. 
          WE JUST, WE DISPOSE OF THEM ONCE WE'VE GONE. 
          ONCE WE'VE GONE TO THE COST AND EXPENSE TO HAVE SOMEBODY TO STOP AND PICK IT 
          [01:00:01]
UP. 
          YEAH. 
          JOSH FOUND THE PICKUP IN I'VE ALSO SEEN IN OTHER COMMUNITIES, AND I DON'T KNOW IF IT'S ACCURATE OR NOT, BUT IT SEEMED LIKE ON THEIR MAIN STREETS, THEY ONLY ALLOWED TO PUT SIGNS IN CERTAIN AREAS. 
          I'VE GONE TO SMALLER COMMUNITIES IN THE STATE, SOUTH OF US, AND YOU WILL SEE THEM AT THE CORNERS. 
          YOU'LL SEE EVERY POLITICAL SIDE, BUT AS YOU DRIVE DOWN THE STREET, YOU SEE NO SIGNS. 
          I MEAN, YOU GET TO THE NEXT CORNER, THEN ALL THE SIGNS ARE JUST LANDLOCKED RIGHT THERE. 
          AND THEN YOU KEEP DRIVING. 
          YOU WON'T SEE ANY SIGNS. 
          AND I DON'T KNOW, I HAVEN'T INQUIRED. 
          AND I GUESS I NEED TO DO THAT. 
          IS THAT A CITY ORDINANCE THAT THERE'S, THEIR POLITICAL SIGNS ARE ONLY ALLOWED IN CERTAIN AREAS? YEAH. 
          I THINK THAT'S MORE STRATEGIC PROBABLY. 
          I DON'T KNOW, BUT IT'S IT'S EVERY TIME I GO THERE, IT'S ALWAYS LIKE THIS, THE SPEED. 
          OH, I'LL ON THAT AD. 
          THAT WE'LL BE HAPPY TO LOOK INTO THAT ISSUE IF THAT'S OF INTEREST. 
          UM, I WOULD PROBABLY TAKE THE APPROACH OF LOOKING AT IT, NOT SPECIFIC TO POLITICAL SIGNS OR ANY SIGNS, ANY SIGNS. 
          YES. 
          YES. 
          I THINK WE'LL BE IN A SAFER, SAFER APPROACH DOING THAT AND GETTING INTO WHAT IT SAYS. 
          I DO APPRECIATE, I THINK RYAN, WHAT WAS IT A YEAR, YEAR AND A HALF AGO, WE HAD A LONG CONVERSATION ABOUT THE, JUST THE, WE CALL THEM, WE CALL IT LITTER ON A STICK. 
          SO, YOU KNOW, THE SIGNS THAT, AND IT'S JOE'S FIREWOOD. 
          AND YOU KNOW, THAT JUST SOMEHOW SEEMS TO END UP ALL OVER TOWN. 
          AND, AND I, I ASKED YOU ALL TO, TO, TO STEP IT UP ON THAT. 
          AND, AND I THINK, AND IT HAPPENS DURING POLITICAL SEASON TOO. 
          AND SO THEY'RE OUT THERE AND, AND, AND IT'S JUST KINDA ONE OF THOSE THINGS WHERE IF THEY CAN DO IT, I CAN DO IT. 
          AND SO ANYWAY, I, I CAN TELL A DIFFERENCE THAT THAT Y'ALL ARE AT MONITORING THAT MORE AND ON THE CORNERS. 
          AND I KNOW SOMEBODY HAS GOT TO STOP THEIR TRUCK AND IT IT'S, IT'S, YOU KNOW, IT'S FIVE OR 10 MINUTES EVERY TIME, BUT ANY, I, IT MATTERS. 
          AND I WANTED TO TELL YOU, I NOTICED THAT. 
          SO THANK YOU. 
          THANK YOU. 
          OKAY. 
          SO MAYOR COUNCIL, I WANT TO THANK BRIAN FOR PUTTING THIS TOGETHER. 
          I ASKED HIM TO PUT THIS TOGETHER BECAUSE I THINK AS WE STARTED TO HEAR SOME DIFFERENT ISSUES AND LAST FEW COUNTS MEANS WE'VE HAD DISCUSSIONS ABOUT A COUPLE OF PROPERTIES, ONE COMMERCIAL AND RESIDENTIAL AND ASPECT. 
          I THINK, UM, I'VE HAD THIS ROLE WITH CODE ENFORCEMENT FOR 20 PLUS YEARS OF MY CAREER AND OTHER CITIES. 
          AND I THINK OFTEN WHAT HAPPENS IS THE CITIZEN CALLS UP AND MAKES A COMPLAINT OR FILED SOMETHING. 
          AND SOME WAY IT KIND OF GOES DARK AND THEY THINK, HEY, I CALLED TOMORROW. 
          THEY SHOULD BE OUT MOWING IT OR THE PROPERTY OWNER. 
          AND SOMETIMES IT DOESN'T HAPPEN. 
          I THINK THE TIMELINE IS IMPORTANT TO SHOW AS MUCH TO YOU AS WELL AS THE PUBLIC HAS. 
          THERE IS A PROCESS WE DON'T IMMEDIATELY GO OUT AND TICKET SOMEBODY AND FIND THEM AND SAY, PAY THEM. 
          WE TRY AND BE ACCOMMODATING. 
          HOPEFULLY THE CALL, THE ENCOURAGEMENT GETS THEM TO TAKE ACTIVITY AND IT COMES AT A CRITICAL POINT. 
          WHERE WAS THEIR ACTION ON ACTION? AND THAT'S AN INTERESTING THING PROCESS WHERE LEGAL SOMETIMES GETS INVOLVED WHERE ONCE THAT HAPPENS, THE LEGAL PROCESS STEPS IN WHERE WE'RE PROHIBITED FROM TAKING FURTHER ACTION, OR WE CAN'T SHARE THAT INFORMATION WITH A CITIZEN CALLS UP AND SAYS, VR STILL LOOKS TERRIBLE. 
          WHAT ARE YOU GUYS DOING? AND NO, WE CAN'T GO INTO THE DETAILS OF THE CASE SIMPLY BECAUSE IT'S CONFIDENTIAL THAT ASPECT. 
          SO PART OF THE PROCESS OF WHAT WE'RE TRYING TO SHOW HERE IS, IS STAFF'S NOT DOING NOTHING. 
          THERE'S JUST A, SOMETIMES ON THOSE CASES WHERE IT BECOMES A LEGAL PROCESS WHERE WE HAVE TO FOLLOW THE DUE PROCESS AND WE NEED TO BE, UM, UM, COGNIZANT OF THEIR RIGHTS TO BE, YOU KNOW, HAVE THEIR DAY IN COURT AND HOW THEIR OPPORTUNITY TO MAKE CORRECTIONS ON THE SUBJECT OF COULD WE DO MORE? WE'LL LOOK AT THAT. 
          I MEAN, I'LL, I'LL TELL YOU, IN OTHER CITIES WHO HAVE FAR GREATER CHALLENGES WITH CODE ENFORCEMENT THAN A YEAR, UM, YOU KNOW, WHEN HE SAID, HEY, 99% ARE COMPLIANT. 
          LIKE WE WERE HOPING SOMETIMES IT GETS 60% COMPLIANCE. 
          UM, ON SOME OF THOSE CITIES, WE WOULD HAVE FUNDS THAT WE SET UP IN A CODE ENFORCEMENT IT'S LIKE $50,000 FOR ILLEGAL DUMPING CLEANUP. 
          THE CHALLENGE WE FOUND WAS, IS PEOPLE FOUND THAT GET A SUIT AS CLEANUPS. 
          AND SO AS MUCH AS YOU WENT TO GO CLEAN IT UP, IT WAS LIKE, HEY, FREE TRASH SERVICE. 
          AND WE JUST KIND OF COMPOUNDED ISSUE. 
          AND SO I THINK MY LAST CITY, WE WENT 75 DAYS BEFORE WE WERE OUT OF DOLLARS. 
          SO THE QUESTION WAS, WHAT DO WE DO? 
          [01:05:01]
UM, AND IN SOME CASES, UH, SOME CITIES TAKE THE CASE OF, DO WE DO AN IMMEDIATE IMMINENT DOMAIN FOR THE PURPOSES OF A DERELICT BUILDING OR STRUCTURE, OR IT'S NOT BEING CLEARED UP WHERE THEN THE CITY WOULD TAKE ACTION. 
          DO THE CLEANUP SOMETIMES EVEN REMOVE THE STRUCTURE BECAUSE IT WAS DEEMED UNSAFE AND THEY PUT A LEAN BACK OR A SPECIAL ASSESSMENT BACK ON. 
          THOSE ARE PRETTY TRAUMATIC SITUATIONS FOR FAMILIES BECAUSE OFTENTIMES WHAT WE'D FIND OUT IS, YOU KNOW, THE FAMILY MEMBERS HAVE SCATTERED ALL ACROSS THE U S THEY WEREN'T ANSWERING EMAILS OR, OR OUT OF SIX AS WE DIDN'T HAVE A GOOD CONTACT. 
          AND THEN THIS CASE WILL COME BEFORE COUNCIL. 
          AND ALSO YOU'D HAVE THESE, UM, SITUATIONS WE'D HAVE FAMILY MEMBERS SAYING, JUST FOUND OUT, DIDN'T KNOW, CAN YOU GIVE US MORE TIME? SO I'M NOT SAYING IT'S EXCUSE FOR US, BUT JUST THINK FOR EDMOND TO HAVE 99% COMPLIANCE, THAT'S HUGE. 
          UM, WE DON'T HAVE LARGE TRACKS OF CHALLENGED AREAS. 
          WE HAVE AREAS THAT WE WANT TO KEEP ON TOP OF, AND I THINK WE'LL CONTINUE TO WORK WHILE HIS TEAM WAS. 
          ARE THERE OTHER TOOLS THAT WE'D BE LOOKING AT? I THINK TO YOUR POINT, THAT MIGHT BE A ZONING QUESTION MORE THAN THE CODE ENFORCEMENT QUESTIONS IS WHAT'S OUR SIGN ORDINANCE SAY ABOUT POLITICAL SIGNS, WHETHER IT'S, YOU KNOW, WE JUST DID SOMETHING FOR TEMPORARY SIGNS. 
          WE DON'T WANT TO CREATE, YOU KNOW, VISUAL CLUTTER. 
          SOMETIMES PEOPLE CALL IT. 
          WE'LL CONTINUE TO LOOK AT THIS. 
          AND ARE THERE OTHER TOOLS THAT WE'RE NOT THINKING ABOUT, MAYBE HOW DO WE BETTER COMMUNICATE IT? FOR EXAMPLE, GOES THROUGH A LEGAL PROCESS, WHAT DO WE NEED TO SAY? OR WHAT CAN WE SAY, OR WHAT CAN WE SAY TO THE SYSTEM CALLS UP AND SAYS, IT'S STILL NOT CLEANED UP, DO YOUR JOB INTERNALLY. 
          WE'RE SAYING WE ARE DOING OUR JOB. 
          WE'RE TRYING TO FOLLOW THE PROCESS. 
          SO I JUST WANT TO THANK BRIAN AND WE'LL KEEP ON THIS. 
          AND WE MAY COME BACK WITH, WITH ADDITIONAL IDEAS TO MOVE FORWARD SO WELL, AND A LOT OF TIMES WHEN THEY SAY IT WENT DARK THAT'S BECAUSE THEY'RE DOING THINGS VERY GOOD. 
          ANY OTHER ADDITIONAL QUESTIONS? THANKS, RYAN. 
          THANK YOU. 
          THANK YOU. 
          ALL RIGHT. 
          WE MADE OUR ACCOMPLISHMENT. 
          WE'VE WE'VE HAD TWO PRODUCTIVE WORKSHOPS TODAY. 
          UH, ANYONE LIKE TO DO ITEM NUMBER FOUR AND ADJOURN, MAKE THE MOTION WAGER SECOND WE'RE DRIVING.
