[2. Approval of City Council Meeting Minutes: September 12, 2022]
ORDER BUSINESS APPROVAL OF CITY COUNCIL, MEANING MINUTES FROM SEPTEMBER 12TH, 2022.SECOND, PLEASE CASH YOUR VOTE.
THOSE MEETING MINUTES ARE APPROVED.
THE NEXT ORDER, WE'RE GONNA HAVE
[A. Presentation by Healthy Minds Policy Initiative (HMPI) on the findings from the Community Behavioral Health Assessment.]
A, A PRESENTATION.UH, CHRISSIE PATTERSON'S GONNA LEAD IT OFF, BUT JUST TO REMIND, UH, THIS IS ON OUR HEALTHY MINDS POLICY INITIATIVE.
UM, LAST THURSDAY, WE HAD A MEDIA EVENT FOR THIS, AND THIS IS ROUND TWO OF OUR ROUND TWO COVERAGE.
I'M THE HOUSING AND COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT MANAGER FOR THE CITY OF EDMOND.
OVER A YEAR AGO, COMMUNITY STAKEHOLDERS MET WITH CITY STAFF TO DISCUSS THE NEEDS OF THE COMMUNITY, FOCUSING ON THE UNDERSTANDING OF MENTAL HEALTH, THEIR NEEDS, RESOURCES, AND GAPS.
IN AUGUST OF 2021, THE CITY OF EDMOND ENGAGED HEALTHY MINDS POLICY INITIATIVE TO CONDUCT AN ASSESSMENT OF THE MENTAL HEALTH OF OUR COMMUNITY.
THIS WAS A COLLABORATION EFFORT BETWEEN STAKEHOLDERS THAT ARE HERE IN THE AUDIENCE AND THE RESULTS THAT ARE GIVEN TO US TODAY WITH THE PLAN TO HELP STRENGTHEN OUR COMMUNITY TOGETHER.
SOME OF THE STAKEHOLDERS, THERE WAS OVER 60 OF 'EM THAT MET OVER THE COURSE OF THE YEAR, BUT SOME OF THEM IN THE AUDIENCE TODAY ARE NORTH CARE, EDMOND PUBLIC SCHOOLS, UNIVERSITY OF CENTRAL OKLAHOMA, SEVERAL MEDICAL FACILITIES THROUGHOUT EDMOND, NAOMI, AND THE EDMOND FAMILY, FAMILY COUNSELING ON BEHALF OF CITY STAFF AND CHIEF YOUNGER AND I, I WOULD LIKE TO INTRODUCE ZACH STA, COFF, EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR OF HEALTHY MINDS INITIATIVE TO PRESENT THE RESULTS OF THE MENTAL HEALTH ASSESSMENT FOR THE CITY OF ED AETNA.
CAN YOU HEAR ME? ALL RIGHT? ALL RIGHT.
WELL, I AM SO EXCITED TO BE PRE, UH, BE PRESENTING HERE TODAY, ABOUT A YEAR'S WORTH OF WORK ON BEHALF OF ABOUT 60 STAKEHOLDERS, AS WAS MENTIONED, THAT MET OVER THE COURSE OF A YEAR TO REALLY DIVE INTO THE DATA AROUND MENTAL HEALTH AND EDMOND, AND HOW DO WE HELP OUR RESIDENTS LEAD SUCCESSFUL, PRODUCTIVE LIVES AND, AND RECOVERY.
AND, UM, I DO WANT TO HAVE A QUICK SHOUT OUT HERE, SAY, MAYOR DAVIS, UH, HAS BEEN ATTENDING.
THANK YOU MAYOR, FOR YOUR LEADERSHIP AND COUNCIL MEMBER MUG.
AND IT'S BEEN WONDERFUL TO WORK WITH BOTH OF YOU AS WE'VE GONE THROUGH THIS PROCESS.
AND, UM, SCOTT AND YOU CAME ON, UM, AND, AND WE WERE SO EXCITED TO HAVE, HAVE YOU AS WELL.
SO WHAT I'M GONNA DO HERE TODAY IS GIVE YOU A LITTLE BIT OF A RUNDOWN ON OUR FINDINGS AND RECOMMENDATIONS.
THE WORK HAS RESULTED IN AT ABOUT 27 ACTION ITEMS THAT THE CITY OF EDMOND CAN COMMUNITY OF EDMOND CAN PURSUE, UH, MOVING FORWARD.
UM, SO REALLY QUICKLY, HEALTHY MINDS, JUST A LITTLE BIT OF BACKGROUND FOR YOU.
UH, WE ARE A NON-PARTISAN DATA DRIVEN THINK TANK AROUND MENTAL HEALTH POLICY ISSUES.
AND WE WORK REALLY AT THE COMMUNITY LEVEL AND THE STATE CAPITAL LEVEL IN OKLAHOMA, UH, REALLY WORKING ON HOW DO YOU REDUCE THE BARRIERS TO GETTING ACCESS TO MENTAL HEALTHCARE IN OUR STATE.
UH, REALLY THE OPPORTUNITY IF WE DO THIS RIGHT IS WONDERFUL IF WE DO THIS RIGHT.
THE OPPORTUNITY IS IN EVERY ASPECT OF OUR COMMUNITIES, THE OPPORTUNITIES IN EDUCATION WHERE WE SEE REALLY A MEASURABLE IMPACT ON STANDARDIZED TEST SCORES.
IF WE DO THIS RIGHT IN EDUCATION, IF WE SEE REALLY THE CRIMINAL JUSTICE LEVEL, WE SEE DIVERSION.
WE SEE PEOPLE STAYING OUT OF JAIL AND STAYING IN THEIR LIVES AND IN THEIR JOBS, AND WE SEE MORE EFFECTIVE USE OF BOTH TAXPAYER DOLLARS AND HEALTHCARE DOLLARS IN OUR HEALTHCARE SYSTEM.
THERE'S A WONDERFUL STAT OUT THERE THAT A HEALTH PATIENT, A HEART PATIENT RATHER, AND THIS WAS, THIS IS ONE OF OUR MOST EXPENSIVE HEALTHCARE DISEASES, IS HEART DISEASE COST THREE TIMES MORE IF THERE IS AN UNDIAGNOSED OR UNTREATED MENTAL HEALTH CONDITION.
SO IF WE REALLY ADDRESS THAT, WE CAN START TO AFFECT HEALTHCARE COSTS OVERALL.
WE, WE ALL LOOK AT THAT INSURANCE BILL.
IF YOU'RE, IF YOU RUN AN ORGANIZATION, AND CERTAINLY THE CITY DOES, THAT'S REALLY A KEY ISSUE HERE.
SO WHAT HAPPENS NOW, UNFORTUNATELY, IS THAT WE HAVE A SYSTEM GENERALLY, AND THIS ISN'T TRUE OF JUST ADMIN, THIS IS REALLY NATIONWIDE.
WE HAVE A SYSTEM THAT DOESN'T REALLY MEET THE NEED.
AND AN OKLAHOMA, WE HAVE ABOUT 59% OF OUR RESIDENTS WITH MENTAL HEALTH CONDITIONS DON'T HAVE THEIR NEEDS MET.
UM, WE DO THINK THAT HAS GONE UP A LITTLE BIT TEMPORARILY BECAUSE THE PANDEMIC AND WHAT'S HAPPENED TO OUR COMMUNITIES OVER THE COURSE OF A COUPLE OF YEARS, WE'VE SEEN DISRUPTIONS IN E ECONOMIES AND SOCIAL CONNECTIVITY AND THINGS LIKE THAT.
WE'VE SEEN ACTUALLY ABOUT ONE AND TWO, ABOUT 50% OF OKLAHOMANS AT SOME POINT DURING THE LAST COUPLE OF YEARS EXPERIENCED DIAGNOSABLE DEPRESSION OR ANXIETY.
SO THIS IS AN ISSUE THAT'S REALLY AFFECTED US ALL HISTORICALLY, ABOUT ONE IN FIVE OKLAHOMANS HAS EXPERIENCED A MENTAL HEALTH CONDITION, BUT WE'VE ALL SEEN VERY LIKELY IN OUR FAMILIES THE EFFECTS OF ADDICTION AND MENTAL HEALTH ISSUES, UH, EITHER PERSONALLY OR CLOSE TO US.
OVER THE LAST COUPLE OF YEARS, WHAT WE'VE SEEN IS THAT POLICE BECOME THE DEFAULT AND DEFACTO PROVIDERS AND MENTAL HEALTH, UH, CARE IN OUR COMMUNITIES AND JAILS.
AND THIS IS NOT THE SITUATION WE WANT TO SEE.
WE WANT LAW ENFORCEMENT TO BE OUT ENFORCING THE LAW AND KEEPING US SAFE, AND WE WANT CLINICIANS TO BE DEALING WITH THE ISSUES THAT, AND, AND REALLY GETTING PEOPLE WELL.
AND SO REALLY WHAT WE'RE TALKING ABOUT HERE IS AN OPPORTUNITY TO HAVE A CONNECTED, BETTER CONNECTED, MORE RESOURCE SYSTEM.
[00:05:01]
UM, SO REALLY WHAT WE DID IS IT WAS MENTIONED, THERE WERE ABOUT 68 PEOPLE WHO CAME TOGETHER AND PROVIDED INPUT ON THIS.WE LOOKED AT DATA THAT STEMMED BOTH FROM, YOU KNOW, HOW OUR, HOW OUR SERVICES ACCESSED IN EDMOND OR OUTSIDE OF EDMOND.
YOU KNOW, PEOPLE OFTEN GO OUT OF TOWN, UM, TO WHAT, WHAT IS THE LEVEL OF PENETRATION OF THOSE SERVICES SO THAT OUR, OUR RESIDENTS REALLY GETTING THE BEST USE OF OUR TAX DOLLAR.
FOR EXAMPLE, AT A STATE LEVEL, WE LOOKED AT AN EVIDENCE BASED IDEAL CONTINUUM OF CARE, WHICH IS REALLY A FANCY WAY OF SAYING THERE ARE A LOT OF DIFFERENT WAYS THAT SOMEBODY CAN GET MENTAL HEALTH CARE.
PEOPLE GET IT, THEIR PRIMARY CARE PEOPLE GET IT THROUGH THE HOSPITAL.
PEOPLE GET IT, YOU KNOW, IN THEIR SCHOOL AND AROUND THEIR, AROUND THEIR LIVES AND THEIR COMMUNITY.
AND SO THERE NEEDS TO BE A CERTAIN LEVEL OF CAPACITY.
WE LOOK AT WHAT ARE THOSE LEVELS OF CAPACITY IN EDMOND AND FOUR ED ADMIN RESIDENTS, AND WE, AND WE GET SOME INTERESTING FINDINGS.
SO STRENGTHS OF EDMOND, IT'S A WONDERFUL COMMUNITY.
IT'S A HIGHLY EDUCATED COMMUNITY.
IT'S A, IT'S A COMMUNITY WITH RESOURCES.
IT'S A COMMUNITY WITH ACTIVE, ENGAGED COMMUNITY LEADERS.
UM, OBVIOUSLY WE'RE TALKING ABOUT THIS REPORT THAT THE COMMUNITY COMMISSIONED.
THAT ALONE IS, IS REALLY SOMETHING TO CELEBRATE.
THIS ISN'T HAPPENING ACROSS OKLAHOMA, EVEN THOUGH IT'S A TIME OF INCREASED NEED ACROSS OUR STATE.
THE COMMUNITY OF EDMOND CAME TOGETHER AND SAID, THIS IS AN ISSUE WE NEED TO SOLVE.
THAT'S AMAZING, AND WE SHOULD CELEBRATE THAT BECAUSE THAT'S REALLY SOMETHING THAT, THAT THE REST OF THE STATE SHOULD TAKE NOTICE OF.
UM, SO A LOT OF WONDERFUL THINGS HAPPENING IN EDMOND.
SOME THINGS THAT ARE HAPPENING, UNFORTUNATELY ON THE NEGATIVE SIDE IS THAT THERE'S SIGNIFICANT ACCESS TO CARE ISSUES.
UM, PEOPLE OFTEN GO OUT OF, OUT OF COUNTY, EVEN FOR MENTAL HEALTH SERVICES IN EDMOND, UM, REALLY CHILDREN AND YOUTH.
REALLY WHAT WE SAW IS THAT DURING THE HEIGHT OF THE PANDEMIC, WHEN WE HAD SORT OF ECONOMIC DOWNTURN, PEOPLE LOST THEIR JOBS, SCHOOL DISRUPTIONS AND THINGS LIKE THAT, THESE STRESSORS THAT WE'VE ALL FELT REALLY ARE FELT MORE BY AT THE CHILDREN'S CHILD LEVEL AND FAMILY LEVEL.
AND SO REALLY ACROSS THE STATE AND ACROSS THE NATION, WE'VE SEEN INCREASE ER UTILIZATION FOR SUICIDALITY.
BUT IN EDMOND, WE'VE SEEN DATA FROM THE INTEGRIS SYSTEM AND OTHERS.
THE ISSUES ARE SIGNIFICANT HERE.
CHILDREN ARE GOING TO THE ER AT RECORD NUMBERS FOR SUICIDALITY AND OTHER MENTAL HEALTH CRISES, AND THEY ARE NOT GETTING SERVED IN THE ER OFTEN ERS ARE NOT NECESSARILY CAPABLE OF SERVING CHILDREN TO MENTAL HEALTH CRISIS.
THEY CAN STABILIZE THE MEDICALLY FOR THE MOST PART.
THEY CAN KEEP THEM IN A BED AND IN A SAFE PLACE UNTIL AN APPROPRIATE LEVEL OF CARE OR ANOTHER BED OPENS UP ACROSS THE COMMUNITY OR ACROSS OUR STATE.
BUT THAT'S REALLY WHAT'S HAPPENING WHEN A CHILD GOES TO THE AIR.
AND THAT'S HAPPENING AT SOME ALARMING.
THERE'S A LOT OF GOOD DATA IN THIS REPORT ABOUT THAT ISSUE IN PARTICULAR.
BUT WE HAVE SEEN IN THE INTEGRIS SYSTEM SOME OF THE DATA, THE INTEGRIS ER HAS BEEN THE NUMBER ONE HIT IN TERMS OF PERCENT INCREASE, UM, ACROSS THE STATE.
SO THEY'VE SEEN ABOUT 117% INCREASE IN USE SHOWING UP AT THE ER WITH SUICIDALITY AND A LARGE PERCENTAGE AT THE EDMOND ER.
UM, AND SO THAT'S NOT JUST EDMOND, BUT THAT'S CERTAINLY SOMETHING THAT'S HAPPENED IN ADMIN AS WELL.
SOME OF THE BASIC DATA THAT WE'VE SEEN RIGHT NOW, AND THE LATEST DATA WE HAVE AROUND MENTAL HEALTH IS THERE ARE ABOUT 15,000 EDMOND RESIDENTS WITH ANY MENTAL ILLNESS.
THIS COULD BE SCHIZOPHRENIA AS WELL AS DEPRESSION AND ANXIETY.
UH, REALLY KEY THOUGH IS THERE IS ABOUT 10,000 EDMOND RESIDENTS WHO HAVE A SERIOUS MENTAL ILLNESS OR A SUBSTANCE USE DISORDER THAT REQUIRE INTENSIVE TREATMENT.
SO THAT'S ABOUT 14% OF OUR TOTAL POPULATION REQUIRING INTENSIVE TREATMENT.
UM, AND AND THAT'S REALLY KEY BECAUSE THAT'S NOT NECESSARILY JUST TALK THERAPY.
THESE ARE, THESE ARE PEOPLE WHO NEED SOMETHING A LITTLE BIT MORE THAN THAT FOR CHILDREN AND YOUTH IN PARTICULAR, WE'VE SEEN, UH, SOME INTERESTING DATA HERE.
ABOUT 10% OF OUR CHILDREN HAVE SERIOUS EMOTIONAL DISTURBANCE.
15% HAVE MAJOR DEPRESSIVE DISORDER.
THESE ARE POTENTIAL SUICIDE RISK FACTORS.
AND I, I'LL GO BACK TO THIS OTHER SIDE AND POINT OUT SUBSTANCE USE FOR ADULTS, UH, I IS RATHER HIGH AS WELL.
SO WE KNOW THAT THERE'S NEED IN EDMOND.
UH, WE KNOW THAT THERE ARE TREATMENT PROVIDERS IN ADMIN WHO HAVE BEEN DOING A LOT OF GOOD WORK FOR A LOT OF YEARS.
UM, IT WAS MENTIONED A COUPLE OF THEM THAT ARE IN THE ROOM TODAY.
THIS IS A MAP THAT YOU'RE LOOKING AT A MEDICAID PROVIDERS IN EDMOND AGAINST CENSUS TRACKS OF POVERTY.
SO WE LIKE TO THINK OF EDMOND AS AN AFFLUENT COMMUNITY, AND IT IS, BUT THERE'S ABOUT A 10% POVERTY RATE, AND THAT'S CONCENTRATED IN CERTAIN AREAS OF THE CITY.
THERE ARE PROVIDERS WHO, WHO SERVE PEOPLE ON MEDICAID AND QUALIFIED BASED ON THEIR INCOME LEVEL FOR THAT, BUT THERE'S NOT ENOUGH CAPACITY HERE.
AND ESSENTIAL TENANT OF OUR REPORT REALLY IS THAT PEOPLE WHO ARE ON MEDICAID OR UNINSURED AREN'T GETTING THE SAME LEVEL OF ACCESS TO STATE FUNDED RESOURCES AS THE REST OF THE STATE.
AND I'LL TALK ABOUT THAT IN A MINUTE.
UM, BUT THERE'S ALSO A LOT OF GOOD THINGS HAPPENING THERE.
PEOPLE IN EDMOND ARE GOING OUT OF THE COMMUNITY QUITE OFTEN FOR SERVICES.
UM, NUMBER ONE REASON WHY ADULTS IN EDMOND LEAVE THE COMMUNITY FOR SERVICES IS THERAPY.
UM, CRISIS SERVICES, UH, FOR CHILDREN, THEY'RE GOING FOR CRISIS SERVICES QUITE A BIT.
THEY'RE GOING DOWN TO RED ROCK, THEY'RE GOING TO OKLAHOMA CITY, AND THEY'RE GETTING CRISIS INTERVENTION.
UM, THE NUMBER ONE REASON CHILDREN ARE LEAVING EDMOND IS FOR CRISIS SERVICES.
SO THESE ARE IMMEDIATE, POTENTIALLY LIFE THREATENING ISSUES THAT ARE HAPPENING IN OUR FAMILIES, AND THEY'RE, AND THEY'RE SEEKING CARE OUTSIDE OF THE COMMUNITY.
UH, WE KNOW THAT THIS ISSUE IN TERMS OF SEEKING CARE OUTSIDE OF THE COMMUNITY AFFECTS THE, THE POLICE DEPARTMENT QUITE A BIT.
SO WHEN THERE'S SOMEBODY WHO NEEDS TO GO TO TREATMENT AND POLICE, TRANSPORT THEM TO TREATMENT, WHICH IS WONDERFUL, IF SOMEBODY JUST NEEDS TREATMENT,
[00:10:01]
WE WANT THAT TO HAPPEN, BUT THEY'RE HAVING TO GO OUT OF THE COMMUNITY QUITE A BIT.UH, WE, WE HAD SEEN AT SOME POINT DURING THIS STUDY IN 2021, ABOUT 50 MENTAL HEALTH TRANSPORTS PER MONTH, ABOUT A HUNDRED OFFICER HOURS SPENT PER MONTH DOING THIS.
SO WE KNEW THAT THERE WAS A, THERE WAS A NEED FOR MORE LOCALIZED COORDINATION AROUND CRISIS SO THAT WE, WE UTILIZE OFFICERS TIME.
NOW, NEXT STEPS TO TALK A LITTLE BIT ABOUT SOME OF THE OPPORTUNITIES FOR ACTION.
AND I MENTIONED, I MENTIONED SOME OF OUR SORT OF INTENSIVE SERVICES THAT WE NEED.
REALLY, WHAT I WANNA HIGHLIGHT HERE IS A CERTIFIED COMMUNITY BEHAVIORAL HEALTH CLINIC MODEL.
IT'S A WONDERFUL MODEL THAT IS OPERATING NOW ACROSS OUR STATE.
EVERY 70, ALL ONE OF ALL 77 COUNTIES IN OKLAHOMA HAVE ACCESS TO A CCB HC.
AND THIS IS IMPORTANT BECAUSE THESE ARE FACILIT FACILITIES FUNDED BY THE STATE TO OFFER INDIGENT CARE AND MEDICAID SERVICES AND PRIVATE INSURANCE SERVICES ACROSS THAT CONTINUUM OF CARE THAT I MENTIONED EARLIER.
SO THESE ARE EARLY NEEDS IS ALL THE WAY TO INTENSIVE SERVICES.
THESE ARE THE KINDS OF COMMUNITY ORGANIZATIONS THAT ARE OFFERING MORE THAN THERAPY.
EDMOND HAS A PENETRATION RATE OF ABOUT 8% FOR ADULTS.
8% OF THE EDMOND RESIDENTS WHO NEED THAT LEVEL OF CARE ARE GOING TO THOSE TYPES OF FACILITIES ACROSS THE STATE.
IT'S 28% FOR CHILDREN, IT'S 17% ARE GETTING THOSE LEVEL OF SERVICES ACROSS THE STATE.
SO THERE'S A BIG GAP HERE IN EDMOND RESIDENCE ACCESSING THAT LEVEL OF CARE.
I WILL SAY WE'VE HAD A WONDERFUL DIALOGUE WITH NORTH CARE, WHICH HAS BEEN, WHICH IS THE ASSIGNED CERTIFIED COMMUNITY HEALTH, BEHAVIORAL HEALTH CPC FOR EDMOND.
WE'VE GOT A REPRESENTATIVE HERE IN THIS ROOM.
THEY ARE OPENING WITH SUPPORT FROM THIS COUNCIL, UM, A NEW URGENT RECOVERY CENTER SERVING EDMOND DIRECTLY.
IT'S A WONDERFUL, WONDERFUL INITIATIVE THAT WILL REALLY HELP OFFSET SOME OF WHAT I JUST TOLD YOU.
THIS IS WILL BE AN ENTRY POINT INTO THE CRISIS SYSTEM.
THIS WILL HELP PEOPLE GET HELP.
THIS IS WONDERFUL IF WE SHOULD REALLY BE HIGHLIGHTING THAT AS A KEY SUCCESS HERE, BECAUSE IT'S REALLY GONNA HELP THE WHOLE SYSTEM.
THOSE PROVIDERS WHO HAVE BEEN OPERATING IN EDMOND ARE DOING THIS WITHOUT THAT BACKUP.
THEY'RE GONNA CONTINUE TO DO THIS.
THEY'RE GOOD AT THIS JOB, BUT THEY, BUT WE NEED A HOLISTIC COMMUNITY APPROACH SO THAT THEY'RE NOT OVERWHELMED AS WELL.
I MENTIONED COMMUNITY CRISIS COORDINATION IS A KEY OPPORTUNITY.
WHAT I'M REALLY TALKING ABOUT HERE IS THAT WE ARE RECOMMENDING PROTOCOLS BE IN PLACE BETWEEN EMERGENCY ROOMS, SCHOOLS, OTHER PROVIDERS, POLICE DEPARTMENTS THAT REALLY MAKE EFFECTIVE USE OF ALL OF THESE DISPAR RESOURCES THAT ARE, THAT PEOPLE ENCOUNTER IN THEIR DAILY LIVES.
UM, AND, AND THAT WE REALLY HAVE AN APPROACH TO THIS THAT IS HOLISTIC.
WE NEED TO EXPAND THE FULL CONTINUUM OF CARE.
WE NEED TO LOOK AT PRIMARY CARE AND WE NEED TO LOOK AT PEOPLE WITH PRIVATE INSURANCE.
AND THIS IS SOMETHING THAT'S BEEN IMPORTANT FOR THIS PROCESS, IS REALIZING THAT EDMOND HAS A HIGHER PERCENTAGE OF RESIDENTS WHO HAVE PRIVATE INSURANCE IN THE REST OF THE STATE, WHICH MAKES SENSE.
BUT THERE ARE A LOT OF ISSUES WITH THAT BECAUSE PRIVATE INSURERS DO NOT PAY FOR INTENSIVE SERVICES.
THERE ARE ISSUES ON PRIVATE INSURANCE WITH GETTING INTO PROVIDERS MONTHS.
PEOPLE ARE SPENDING WAITING FOR THIS.
AND IT'S A SAD REALITY THAT IN OKLAHOMA, OFTEN PEOPLE ON MEDICAID HAVE BETTER ACCESS TO CARE THAN PRIVATE INSURANCE.
SO THE ISSUE OF MENTAL HEALTH PARITY ARE YOU, ARE YOU GETTING ADDED DISCRIMINATION AROUND WHETHER YOU'RE ACCESSING A MENTAL HEALTH PROVIDER COMPARED TO A PHYSICAL HEALTHCARE PROVIDER? AND A KEY EXAMPLE OF THIS, I WILL TELL YOU, OKLAHOMA RESIDENTS HAVE TO GO OUT OF NETWORK FOR BEHAVIORAL HEALTHCARE ALMOST EIGHT TIMES MORE OFTEN THAN THEY GO OUT OF NETWORK FOR PHYSICAL HEALTHCARE.
THERE ARE BIG IMBALANCES IN THIS SYSTEM THAT ARE BIG POLICY ISSUES THAT WE'VE GOT.
THE ADMIN REALLY IS GETTING THE BRUNT OF THIS BECAUSE OF THE ISSUE OF SO MANY RESIDENTS HAVING PRIVATE THING.
BUT THERE'S A LOT OF OPPORTUNITY HERE.
THERE'S ALREADY BEEN PARTNERSHIPS ANNOUNCED BETWEEN NORTH CARE AND AND ADMIN PUBLIC SCHOOLS, AND THERE'S WONDERFUL WORK HAPPENING IN THE SCHOOLS, AND I JUST WANNA CELEBRATE THAT AS WELL.
BUT IF YOU GO INTO THIS REPORT AGAIN, THERE ARE ABOUT 27 ACTION ITEMS THAT WE CAN REALLY HANDLE OVER THE NEXT SEVERAL YEARS.
AND WHAT DOES THIS MEAN? SO THIS IS A REPORT, THIS IS AN, THIS IS AN ACTION PLAN.
THIS IS A STRATEGIC PLAN, AND THIS IS A, UH, A NEEDS ASSESSMENT, BUT IT'S A DOCUMENT THAT COULD VERY EASILY BE PUT ON A SHELF AND, AND STAY THERE.
WHAT I THINK THE COMMUNITY WANTS, IT'S FOR REAL TANGIBLE WORK TO HAPPEN IN THESE 27 GOALS TO REALLY COME TOGETHER AND CONTINUE TO COME TOGETHER AND WIDEN THAT NET.
FAITH LEADERS AT SCHOOL LEADERS, PEOPLE WHO ARE AT THE TABLE, WHO CAN REALLY HAVE AN OPPORTUNITY TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE IN OUR SYSTEM AND MAKE BETTER EFFECTIVE USE OF OUR TIME AND RESOURCES.
SO, HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS AND I'LL END THERE.
ANY QUESTIONS FROM COUNCIL? IT WAS A PLEASURE TO BE SERVING, UH, BE A PART OF THIS IN TOTAL INITIATIVE BECAUSE AS WE SAID BEFORE, IT JUST WASN'T THE CITY OF EDMOND.
IT WAS THE EDMOND COMMUNITY REGIONALLY.
WE ALL CAME TOGETHER AND SAY, HEY, WE'RE BETTER TOGETHER THAN BE SEPARATE ON THIS WHOLE ISSUE.
AND THAT'S WORK TOGETHER, CONTINUED WORK TOGETHER IN THE FUTURE TO HELP MENTAL BEHAVIORAL HEALTH ISSUES THAT ARE, UH, PLAGUE IN OUR COMMUNITY RIGHT NOW.
[4. Nominations to Boards and Commissions:]
IS THE NOMINATION AND, UH, TO BOARDS OF COMMISSIONS, WE HAVE A NOMINATION OF[00:15:01]
ANTHONY ROSE BY THE EDMUND PUBLIC SCHOOL BOARD TO REPLACE MIKE NUNLEY ON THE PARTS AND RECREATION ADVISORY BOARD.NO, MAX TERM, THAT IS OUR ONLY NOMINATION.
MOVE TO APPROVE SECOND MOTION.
AND SECOND, PLEASE CATCH YOUR VOTE.
THAT NOMINATION IS NOW AN APPOINTMENT.
[5. General Consent Items: (Items listed under General Consent are usually approved as a group with the proper motion from a member of the Council. Members of the Council may request discussion or separate action on any item under General Consent.)]
WE HAVE OUR GENERAL CONSENT ITEMS. THOSE CAN BE APPROVED IN A BLOCK, BUT WE DO HAVE A, UM, STAFF PRESENTATION FOR ITEM FIVE[6. Approval of Transfer of Appropriation for demolition of four city owned buildings; $200,000]
A SIX.JUST WANTED TO VISIT WITH YOU BRIEFLY ABOUT TWO ITEMS THAT ARE ON YOUR AGENDA THIS EVENING.
SO THEY BOTH RELATE TO THE DEMOLITION OF FOUR VACANT CITY BUILDINGS.
AND FOR ME, I PUT DOWN HERE REALLY THE, THE GOALS BEHIND THIS IS TO REDUCE RISK AND TO REDUCE ATTRACTIVE NUISANCES.
AND SO ATTRACTIVE NUISANCES, THINK OF THIS AS PEOPLE THINKING, THESE ARE BUILDINGS TO EXPLORE.
NOW I WILL SAY WHEN I WAS YOUNGER, I WOULD'VE NEVER EXPLORED A VACANT BUILDING, BUT I KNOW THAT THERE ARE INDIVIDUALS OUT THERE THAT DO EXPLORE VACANT BUILDINGS.
AND SO THE CITY WOULD LIKE TO MOVE FORWARD WITH TEARING THESE DOWN BECAUSE THEY ARE VACANT AND JUST TO REDUCE RISK AND, UH, UH, CHANCE OF ATTRACTIVE NUISANCES.
SO AGAIN, IT'S ITEM FIVE AK AND FIVE BK.
SO FIVE AK IS REALLOCATING $200,000 OF BUDGETED MONEY.
SO CURRENTLY IN THE BUDGET, UH, THIS FISCAL YEAR IS TO CONSTRUCT, UH, UH, TO CONSTRUCT A RADIO TOWER TO HOUSE OUR EQUIPMENT FOR PUBLIC SAFETY COMMUNICATIONS.
CURRENTLY, THE TOWER SITS ON UNIVERSITY OF CENTRAL OKLAHOMA'S CAMPUS, AND THEY HAVE INDICATED TO CITY STAFF THAT THEY WOULD LIKE TO TEAR THIS TOWER DOWN.
WHERE THIS TOWER IS IS DIRECTLY SOUTH OF CHAD RICHARDSON STADIUM.
AND SO THE CITY STAFF HAD BUDGETED 2 MILLION FOR THIS TO OCCUR THIS IN THIS CURRENT FISCAL YEAR.
AND AS WE'VE HAD MORE NEGOTIATIONS WITH THEM, PERHAPS THE URGENCY ISN'T THERE RIGHT NOW.
AND SO THEY'RE WORKING TO UNWIND SOME OTHER AGREEMENTS WITH SOME OTHER PROVIDERS THAT ARE ON THE TOWER AS WELL.
AND STAFF AS WELL WOULD LIKE TO MOVE FORWARD WHEN THIS DOES HAPPEN WITH NOT USING ONLY C I P FUNDS FOR THIS.
WE'RE GATHERING ESTIMATES ABOUT HOW MUCH THIS WOULD BE FOR US TO CONSTRUCT OUR OWN TOWER FOR THESE THINGS TO BE ON THERE.
SO WE FEEL LIKE THIS FREES UP SOME MONEY TO, IN ORDER TO ACCOMPLISH THIS RIGHT HERE.
SO IT'S REALLOCATING THAT MONEY.
AND THEN ITEM FIVE, BK IS THE ACCEPTANCE OF THE BID.
SO AS WE DO, WHEN WE HAVE PROJECTS LIKE THIS, WE PLACE IT OUT TO BID.
WE RECEIVE FOUR BIDDERS, WHICH IS A VERY GOOD THING.
AND SO THE LOWEST AND BEST IS FOR $191,680.
AND I'M STAFF IS PROPOSING TO MOVE ADDITIONAL MONEY JUST IN CASE THERE'S SOME OVERRUNS THAT HAPPEN WHENEVER THE CONTRACTOR GETS ON SITE WITH THE BUILDING GROUP.
SO I THOUGHT JUST A BRIEF EXPLANATION ON EACH OF THESE FOUR BUILDINGS.
AND SO I'M GONNA MOVE FROM EAST TO WEST IN THE COMMUNITY, AND I'VE GOT A COUPLE SMALL PICTURES UP HERE TO TALK ABOUT WHERE THESE ARE.
SO THE FIRST ONE'S 300 NORTH POST ROAD.
AND SO THIS IS THE SIDE OF THE ROUTE 66 SOFTBALL COMPLEX.
SO WHEN THE CITY ACQUIRED THIS LAND 10 PLUS YEARS AGO, UM, SO THINK, UH, SECOND STREET RIGHT HERE.
SO ROUTE 66 AND POST ROAD RUNNING NORTH AND SOUTH.
THIS IS A HOUSE THAT SITS ON TOP OF THIS HILL.
IT'S BEEN VACANT SINCE THE CITY PURCHASED IT.
UM, AND IT HAS STRUCTURAL ISSUES.
WE'VE DONE SOME THINGS TO LOOK AT WHAT, WHAT COULD THIS BE? AND BASICALLY THE COST TO WE, WE DON'T KNOW THE USE OF IT AND THE COST TO REPAIR IT IS GONNA BE MORE THAN IT IS JUST TO GO AHEAD AND TEAR IT DOWN.
THE SECOND ONE, MOVING A LITTLE FARTHER EAST, IS WHAT WE AT 7,000 EAST SECOND STREET, WHICH FORMALLY THIS WAS USED AS, UH, BY OUR POLICE DEPARTMENT FOR ARCADIA LAKE POLICE HOUSE.
IT HASN'T BEEN USED SINCE 2016.
IT'S GOT STRUCTURAL ISSUES AS WELL.
AND THERE'S ASBESTOS THAT NEEDS TO BE REMOVED FROM IT.
SO AGAIN, SECOND STREET, MIDWEST, NORTH AND SOUTH RIGHT HERE.
AND ALSO ALONG WITH THIS, AROUND THIS SAME AREA, IN FACT A LITTLE FARTHER HERE, UH, TO THE NORTH, WHAT WE ARE ABOUT TO START IS DESIGN ON A JOINT POLICE DEPARTMENT, SUBSTATION AND ARCADIA LAKE OFFICE.
SO THAT WOULD REPLACE THE OFFICE THAT JUST SITS A LITTLE FARTHER TO THE EAST.
SO THAT'S THE SECOND STRUCTURE TO BE REPLACED.
AND THEN THE THIRD HAS BEEN RECENTLY ACQUIRED.
SO THIS IS AT 10 20 SOUTH COLTRAIN.
SO ON COLTRAIN JUST NORTH OF THE INTERSECTION OF 15TH.
AND THEN WE HAVE OLD TRAIN RIGHT HERE.
SO THIS WAS ACQUIRED, UH, WITH LAND FOR THE CREEK BIN TRAIL AND THEN ALSO A SEWER PROJECT.
SO THE ULTIMATE, UM, GOAL FOR THIS LAND, WHICH THIS STRUCTURE SITS ON RIGHT HERE, IS FOR THIS TO BE TRAILHEAD FOR THE CREEK BEND TRAIL.
AND JUST A QUICK UPDATE ON WHERE WE ARE WITH THAT.
WE'RE ABOUT 60, 60% COMPLETE ON DESIGN, AND THERE'S ABOUT 10 PARCELS
[00:20:01]
THAT NEEDS TO BE, REQUIRE, NEEDS TO BE ACQUIRED, THAT RUN ALONG HERE.AND CITY STAFF HAS, HAS ACQUIRED A FEW, BUT IT'S PROVING DIFFICULT TO ACQUIRE SOME OTHERS.
SO MORE LATER WITH THAT, I'M SURE YOU'LL HEAR ABOUT THAT LATER.
SO, AND THEN FINALLY THE FOURTH BUILDING IS AT 10 30 SOUTH BRYANT.
SO THIS IS LOCATED JUST DIRECTLY, UH, ON THE OTHER SIDE OF JUST NORTH OF PELICAN BAY.
SO FORMALLY THIS BUILDING HOUSED, UM, VISIT EDMOND AND ONCE VISIT EDMOND MOVED TO THE NEW CONFERENCE CENTER.
IT HAS HAD SOME TEMPORARY USES INCLUDING THE LIBRARY, WHEN THE LIBRARY WENT THROUGH ITS REMODEL, WHICH WAS VERY NICE TO BE ABLE TO HAVE THAT.
IT'S ALSO HOUSED SOME SMART METERS RECENTLY, BUT THE BUILDING AND HAS, IS SET VACANT NOW FOR, UM, I'M SAY A COUPLE OF YEARS.
AND THEIR SUBSTANTIAL REPAIRS NEEDED TO IT, NAMELY IT NEEDS A NEW ROOF.
AND ULTIMATELY WHAT STAFF IS EXPLORING RIGHT NOW IS ADDITIONAL PARKING IS NEEDED FOR PELICAN BAY.
THERE ARE SOME CHALLENGES WITH THE SITE.
AND SO WE'RE JUST GOING THROUGH, UM, TO UNDERSTAND BETTER WHAT THOSE CHALLENGES ARE.
BUT WE THOUGHT THERE'S SOME ECONOMY OF SCALE AND BIDDING ALL FOUR OF THESE TOGETHER.
SO THAT'S WHAT'S ON YOUR AGENDA THIS EVENING.
TWO ITEMS, THE MOVING OF THE MONEY AND THE ACTUAL ACCEPTANCE OF THE BID.
HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS.
WELL, THAT'S, UH, THAT WAS FIVE A SIX PART OF OUR GENERAL CONSENT.
COUNSEL, DO YOU WANNA PULL ANY OTHER ITEMS FROM THE GENERAL CONSENT LIST? OH, I DO HAVE ON A ONE.
[1. Consideration of the First Amendment to the Interlocal Agreement for the City of Edmond's participation in the Oklahoma County Criminal Justice Advisory Council. ]
UM, I KNOW THIS IS, THIS IS WITH THE ADVISORY COUNCIL.DOES THIS, DOES THIS REALLY AFFECT ANYTHING THAT EDMOND'S WANTING TO, UH, LOOKING AT CHANGING OR, OR ANYTHING WE'RE DISCUSSING AS PART OF THIS? I'M GOING GO AHEAD.
IF WE CAN INVITE FROM OUR CJ BRIEFLY TALKED ABOUT WHAT THE POST CHANGES AND WHAT THAT IMPLICATION MEANS FOR THE CITY.
UM, SO THE, UH, INTERLOCAL AGREEMENT IS WHAT, UH, EDMOND, OKLAHOMA CITY, MIDWEST CITY AND OKLAHOMA COUNTY ENTERED TO FIVE YEARS AGO FOR THE CREATION OF THE CRIMINAL JUSTICE ADVISORY COUNCIL FOR THE PURPOSE OF LOOKING AT IMPROVEMENTS IN OUR, OUR CRIMINAL JUSTICE SYSTEM.
AND SO THERE'S TWO ASPECTS TO IT.
NUMBER ONE IS THE JAIL PROBLEM.
NUMBER TWO ARE COURT PROCESSES, UM, THAT CAUSE PEOPLE TO BE IN THE JAIL MORE THAN THEY NEED TO BE.
AND SO, UM, THE CJ'S JOB THAT YOU ALL HAVE PARTICIPATED IN, UM, ACTIVELY, UM, FOR THE LAST FIVE YEARS IS TO LOOK AT BOTH THOSE ISSUES AND TRY TO SOLVE IT.
SO THIS IS THE RENEWAL OF IT, AND SO IT WILL CONTINUE.
UM, AND SO THE ITEM A ONE IS FOR THE AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE FOUR ENTITIES TO BE RENEWED.
AND THEN, UM, B ONE IS FOR THE YEARLY WITHIN EACH YEAR, UM, YOU HAVE TO RENEW IT BECAUSE YOU CAN'T OBLIGATE FUNDS LONG TERM.
SO EVERY YEAR YOU HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO REVIEW IT, UM, AND TO APPROVE IT.
AND THEN, UM, WE HAVE AN ANNUAL REPORT THAT WE PUT OUT THAT WE CAN, UH, UH, PRESENT AT A LATER TIME.
UM, BUT ONE OF THE RESULTS FROM, UH, YOU KNOW, REALLY WHAT WE DO IS PROVIDE US A CONVENING AND A COLLABORATION FUNCTION SO THE FOUR ENTITIES CAN BRING DIFFERENT PARTIES TOGETHER TO WORK ON SOLVING PROBLEMS. UM, BECAUSE OF THAT, WE'VE HAD A SUCCESSFUL REDUCTION IN THE JAIL POPULATION, WHICH HAS GIVEN US THE OPPORTUNITY WITH THE EXPIRING BONDS TO APPROVE THE BOND FOR THE NEW JAIL.
UM, IF THE JAIL POPULATION WAS AS LARGE AS IT WAS EIGHT OR NINE YEARS AGO, WE WOULDN'T HAVE BEEN ABLE TO PASS THE BOND AT THE AMOUNT WE DID WITHOUT A SALES TAX INCREASE.
AND SO WE RECOGNIZE WITH EDMOND, OKLAHOMA CITY AND MIDWEST CITY AS PARTNERS, UM, THAT SALES TAX IS VERY IMPORTANT.
SO WE WERE VERY, UM, DISCIPLINED ABOUT MAKING SURE WE ONLY STUCK TO COUNTY BOND REVENUE AND NOT SALES TAX REVENUE.
UM, AND THEN, UM, WE'VE HAD VARIOUS IMPROVEMENTS IN THE COURT SYSTEM WITH EXPANDING DIVERSION PROGRAMS AND GETTING MORE PEOPLE INTO COURT RELATED PROGRAMS. SO YOU HAVE THAT ACCOUNTABILITY OF A JUDGE, UH, HELPING A PERSON THROUGH THE SYSTEM.
BUT THEN WE HAVE, UH, PROVIDERS IN THE COMMUNITY THAT HELP THEM WITH CASE MANAGEMENT, UM, NAVIGATION, UH, PROBLEMS WITH THEIR WARRANTS OR OTHER THINGS OF THAT NATURE.
UM, AND THAT'S BEEN CONTRIBUTING TO WHY OUR JAIL POPULATION CONTINUES TO GO DOWN.
AND SO, AS OKLAHOMA COUNTY HAS REALLY EMBRACED THIS EFFORT WITH THE THREE CITIES, UM, YOU ALL ARE ONE OF THE LEADERS, UH, CHIEF YOUNGER HAS BEEN INVOLVED VERY, UH, EXTENSIVELY.
UM, SCOTT'S REALLY JUMPED IN, UM, AND BEEN,
[00:25:01]
UH, PRODUCTIVE.UM, WHAT WE SEE IS THAT THE MUNICIPALITIES HAVE REDUCED THEIR RELIANCE ON THE COUNTY JAIL, UM, FOR MUNICIPAL OFFENSES.
SO THAT'S ONE WAY WE'VE BROUGHT THE POPULATION DOWN.
UM, AND THEN FOR STATE CHARGES, WE'RE GETTING MORE PEOPLE INTO THINGS LIKE DRUG COURT.
AND SO THAT'S HOW THAT JAIL POPULATION HAS COME DOWN.
UM, AS A RESULT OF THAT, OUR POPULATION OF OKLAHOMA COUNTY RESIDENTS, WHICH WOULD INCLUDE EDMOND RESIDENTS THAT ARE ENDING UP IN PRISON IN D C HAS GONE DOWN OVER THE LAST FIVE YEARS.
UM, AND SO WHAT THAT MEANS IS THAT, UH, MORE OF YOUR RESIDENTS ARE IN PROGRAMS WHERE THEY'RE GETTING THEIR NEEDS ADDRESSED.
UM, THEY'RE NOT ENDING UP IN PRISON.
AND THAT'S ALWAYS THE CHALLENGE IS COMING BACK IN THAT REENTRY BECAUSE ABOUT 90% OF THE PEOPLE IN DEPARTMENT OF CORRECTIONS IN PRISON ARE GONNA EVENTUALLY COME BACK TO YOUR COMMUNITY.
UM, AND THAT REENTRY PROCESS IS VERY DIFFICULT.
SO AS YOU INTERRUPT THAT CYCLE EARLIER THROUGH DIVERSION AT THE COUNTY LEVEL, UM, YOU'RE GONNA ACTUALLY SEE BETTER RESULTS WITH NEIGHBORS OF YOURS THAT ARE ABLE TO GET BACK TO THEIR LIVES IN A MORE PRODUCTIVE NATURE.
SO WE PROVIDE THAT FUNCTION OF BRINGING PEOPLE TOGETHER TO IDENTIFY PROBLEMS AND SOLVE PROBLEMS. AND SO WE'VE BEEN VERY GRATEFUL FOR YOUR, UH, INVOLVEMENT THE FIRST FIVE YEARS.
AND WE'D ASK YOU TO, TO RENEW THAT AGAIN, ASSUMING YOU'RE RECOMMENDING I AM MM-HMM.
AND IF, FOR EVERYONE ON COUNCIL, IF YOU HAVE NOT, UH, UH, MR. TIP ATAL WOULD HAVE, YOU COULD HAVE FURTHER CONVERSATION WITH HIM, BUT ALSO THEY OFFER A TOUR OF THE JAIL.
AND IF YOU'VE NEVER TAKEN A TOUR OF THE JAIL DOWNTOWN, I HIGHLY RECOMMEND YOU DO THAT.
AND YOU RECEIVE SOME OF THE BENEFITS FROM THIS PROGRAM HERE, UH, TO HELP REDUCE THAT BECAUSE WE WANNA KEEP AS MANY PEOPLE OUT OF THAT JAIL AS POSSIBLE.
AND, UH, IF YOU'RE JUST FROM A MINOR CRIME, YOU'RE IN THERE WITH HARDENED CRIMINALS AND IT'S, IT'S, IT'S, IT'S AN EVENT COMING OUT OF THERE.
AND SECOND, PLEASE CATCH YOUR VOTE.
THOSE GENERAL CONSENT ITEMS ARE PASSED.
[1. Consideration of the Fourth Amendment to the Professional Services Agreement with the Oklahoma County Criminal Justice Advisory Council (CJAC); $17,400. ]
ORDER IS FIVE B APPROVE PURCHASES CONSIDERATION OF THE FOURTH AMENDMENT TO THE PROFESSIONAL SERVICES AGREEMENT WITH THE OKLAHOMA COUNTY JUSTICE CRIMINAL, UM, JUSTICE ADVISORY COUNCIL FOR $17,400.[2.

WE'D ASK THAT TO BE CONTINUED TO YOUR OCTOBER 10TH, 2022 MEETING, PLEASE.
SO WE'LL CATCH THAT WHEN WE MAKE OUR MOTIONS.
GOOD EVENING, MAYOR COUNCIL CHRIS GOODWIN, FIRE CHIEF.
THIS WILL BE VERY BRIEF, BUT YOU'LL REMEMBER I CAME TO YOU A FEW MEETINGS BACK ASKING TO ACCELERATE THE PURCHASE OF ENGINE SIX FOR OUR NEW STATION SIX THAT'S UNDER DESIGN RIGHT NOW.
AND THAT'S DUE TO THE LONG LEAD TIMES OF ALMOST 29 MONTHS FROM APPROVAL TILL DELIVERY OF THOSE TRIPLE COMBINATION PUMPERS.
AND I MIGHT JUST SAY IF YOU'RE WANTING ONE OF A TRIPLE COMBINATION PUMP, OR IT, IT HAS A HIGH CAPACITY PUMP, CARRIES ITS OWN WATER AND IT CARRIES ITS OWN HOSE.
SO THAT'S WHAT THAT'S ALL ABOUT.
UH, YOU GAVE THAT APPROVAL TO GO AHEAD AND DO THAT.
SO WE WENT OUT TO BID, UM, THE LOW BID WAS PIERCE, UH, OR CONRAD FIRE, WHICH MANUFACTURES PIERCE PUMPERS, UM, WHICH IS, IS GOOD FOR US.
THAT'S WHAT OUR MOST RECENT PURCHASES HAVE BEEN.
SO WE'LL HAVE SOME STANDARDIZATION OF OUR FLEET, BUT THOSE PUMPERS WILL GO TO ENGINE ONE, WHICH IS A REPLACEMENT OF THE CURRENT ENGINE AT THAT STATION.
AND THAT ENGINE WILL THEN MOVE INTO RESERVE STATUS.
AND THEN ENGINE SIX, SO IT'LL BE HERE WHEN WE OPEN UP THE NEW FIRE STATION.
UM, BY ALLOWING US TO DO THAT, WE ALSO SAW THE BENEFIT OF BULK PURCHASING BY GOING OUT TO BID FOR TWO INSTEAD OF ONE.
SO, UM, AND WITH YOUR APPROVAL THIS EVENING, WE WILL IMMEDIATELY GET WITH, UH, BRENDA TOMORROW AND AWARD THAT CONTRACT AND THAT WILL SAVE US ANOTHER 13.5% ON THE CUMMINS MOTORS THAT GO IN THE, IN THOSE PUMPERS THAT ARE GOING UP IN ABOUT TWO WEEKS, THEY'RE GONNA SEE A 13.5% INCREASE.
SO AGAIN, THANK YOU FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION ON THAT.
ANY QUESTIONS FOR THE CHIEF ON THAT
[8. Approval of financial support of Lazy E Arena’s efforts to recruit and host the National Junior High Finals Rodeo, which is expected to result in substantial economic impact for Edmond, in the amount of up to $45,000.]
VISIT? EVAN, WOULD YOU LIKE TO COME UP AND TALK TO ABOUT THE LAZY ARENA? I BELIEVE I HAVE SOME SLIDES OR MAYBE NOT.SO I'M JENNIFER SETON AND I'M YOUR TOURISM DIRECTOR.
I GET TO SPEAK TO YOU TODAY ABOUT USING SOME DOLLARS FROM THE CITY COUNCIL CONTINGENCY FUND TO SUPPORT RECRUITING RODEOS TO THE LAZY ARENA.
UM, FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO MAY NOT KNOW WHERE THE LAZY ARENA IS, IT IS MACAB IN THE MIDDLE BETWEEN EDMOND AND GUTHRIE.
I HAVE THE JOY OF SEEING LOTS OF VISITORS COME TO EDMOND.
AND UM, I'M ALWAYS IMPRESSED WITH THE VISITORS WE GET FROM RODEOS AT THE LAZY E ARENA.
MANY OF YOU HAVE BEEN TO THE LAZY E TO SEE THAT FIRSTHAND, BUT THESE, UM, VISITORS COME TO THE LAZY E TO ENJOY RODEOS AND THEY STAY FOUR WEEKS AT A TIME.
THEY, UM, COME TO EDMOND TO SLEEP AND TO DINE AND TO SHOP.
THEY HAVE COURSES, UM, THEY ENJOY THE LAZY ARENA.
IT'S DIFFERENT FROM COLISEUMS AND UM, MAYBE LARGER FACILITIES INSIDE CITIES.
IT'S A LAZY, IS A RURAL EXPERIENCE WHERE IT'S SAFE THEIR CHILDREN IN THEIR FAMILIES GET TO EXPERIENCE RODEOS ON A DIFFERENT LEVEL.
SO DAN WALL, WHO'S WITH ME TONIGHT, UM, IS GOING TO JOIN ME AND ANSWER SOME QUESTIONS.
BUT SPECIFICALLY, $45,000 FROM THE CITY COUNCIL CONTINGENCY FUND WILL HELP RECRUIT THE, UM, NATIONAL JUNIOR HIGH FINALS RODEO.
[00:35:01]
AT THE GEORGIA STATE FAIR.IT'S ALSO SOMETIMES HELD IN DES MOINES, IOWA, AND KANSAS CITY, MISSOURI.
SO THIS WOULD COME TO EDMOND FOR 10 CONSECUTIVE YEARS.
IT WILL ALSO HELP RECRUIT EVEN, UM, LARGER RODEOS LIKE THE NATIONAL HIGH SCHOOL FINALS RODEO.
SO THIS IS THE FIRST STEP FOR A PLAN TO MAKE THE LAZY ARENA, THE YOUTH HORROR SHOW CAPITAL OF THE WORLD.
SO WE FEEL LIKE IT'S A VERY GOOD INVESTMENT OF FUNDS.
THE IMPORTANT THING TO KNOW IS THAT THESE DOLLARS WILL NOT BE SPENT UNTIL THAT AGREEMENT IS EXECUTED.
SO IT'S A IF WHEN, UM, SITUATION.
SO I WOULD LIKE TO INTRODUCE DAN WALL, WHO'S GENERAL MANAGER OF LAZY E TO JOIN ME.
THANK YOU FOR THE OPPORTUNITY.
SO WHAT I'M ASKING YOU FOR IS TO PARTNER WITH THE LAZY E IN BRINGING ONE OF THREE EVENTS OF THIS SIZE AND THIS MAGNITUDE IN THE WORLD TO OKLAHOMA, TO THE LAZY E AND TO EDMOND.
WE'RE RECRUITING THE EVENT AS A VENUE, BUT AS A PARTNER OF THE CITY OF EDMOND, WHAT WE'RE HOPING TO DO IS TO CREATE A SERIES OF EVENTS WHERE FAMILIES WILL COME AND STAY IN THIS AREA FOR AN EXTENDED PERIOD.
I'VE USED THIS ANALOGY BEFORE FOR SOME OF YOU.
IF YOU, IF YOU'VE HEARD MY SPEECH AND YOU'RE LEAVING FOR A DAY TRIP, HOW DO YOU PACK? YOU'RE LEAVING FOR A THREE DAY TRIP.
HOW DO YOU PACK? YOU'RE LEAVING FOR A WEEK TO GO SOMEWHERE.
HOW DO YOU PACK AND HOW DO YOU PLAN IF YOU'RE GOING FOR TWO WEEKS? OKAY, WHAT DO YOU DO? WHAT I'M TRYING TO RECRUIT IS A SERIES OF THREE TO FOUR EVENTS WHERE WE WOULD BE THE YOUTH RODEO CAPITAL OF THE WORLD, WHERE A THOUSAND TO 2000 FAMILIES FOR EACH ONE OF THOSE EVENTS WOULD COME TO OKLAHOMA AND SPEND THEIR SUMMER WITH US.
SO WHEN YOU PACK TO TRAVEL FOR TWO WEEKS, YOU PROBABLY, IF YOU'RE GONNA BE GONE THAT LONG, YOU MAY SAY TO YOUR SPOUSE, WHY DON'T YOU COME WITH ME? WE'LL MAKE A TRIP OUT OF IT.
AND AS A BUSINESS PARTNER, WE WANT THESE FAMILIES TO HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO KNOW WHAT OKLAHOMA AND WHAT EDMOND HAS TO OFFER IN ADVANCE.
WE WANT PROMOTE THE CITY OF EDMOND TO THESE FAMILIES IN ADVANCE SO THAT THEY KNOW WHAT'S AVAILABLE DURING THAT TWO WEEK PERIOD OF TIME.
CAUSE MOST OF THEM ONLY COMPETE FOR THREE DAYS OUT OF THAT ENTIRE WINDOW.
SO WHAT DO THEY DO FOR THE OTHER TIME? THEY PLAN A VACATION, THEY PLAN A GETAWAY DAY.
WHY NOT DO THAT IN EDMOND? THAT'S WHAT I'M ASKING YOU TO DO.
AND IF THIS COMES TO FRUITION, WE, WE BELIEVE WE'VE GOT A VERY GOOD CHANCE OF SIGNING THE NEXT ONE, WHICH WOULD BE THREE OF THE FOUR EVENTS OF THIS MAGNITUDE IN THE ENTIRE COUNTRY RIGHT HERE IN OUR BACKYARD.
THE ONLY OTHER ONE THAT'S EVEN CLOSE TO THIS SIZE IS IN, IS IN LAS VEGAS DURING THE NATIONAL FINALS RODEO.
AND IT'S NOT ONE EVENT, IT'S A SERIES OF MULTIPLE EVENTS HELD ALL OVER THIS, THE CITY.
SO YOUR VENUE ALREADY HAS ONE, OR YOUR CITY ALREADY HAS ONE.
THE NATIONAL LITTLE RICHES FINALS RODEO, WHICH YOU SUPPORT.
WE'RE TRYING TO RECRUIT A SECOND AND A THIRD, WHICH WOULD FILL UP ALMOST TWO FULL MONTHS OF FAMILIES LIVING IN YOUR COMMUNITY.
I THINK THAT'S SPEAKS VOLUMES.
SO WE'RE NOT HERE TO ASK FOR BONNELL BUT BENEVOLENT GIFT.
WE'RE HERE AS A BUSINESS PARTNER FOR THE CITY OF EDMOND, AND WE WANT TO HELP YOU RECRUIT THESE FAMILIES HERE FOR AN EXTENDED PERIOD.
WE ARE LOOKING FOR A 10 YEAR AGREEMENT MM-HMM.
WE NEED A LONG TERM CONTRACT IN ORDER JUST TO MAKE THAT WORK.
ANY QUESTIONS? COUNCIL? ANY QUESTIONS? I JUST HAVE A COMMENT, MAYOR, IF I COULD YES, GO RIGHT AHEAD.
UM, APPRECIATE WHAT YOU HAVE TO SAY, DAN.
THANK YOU JENNIFER, FOR BRINGING US THIS OPPORTUNITY THAT THE REASON I THINK IT'S IMPORTANT TO SAY WHY WE HAVE THIS OPPORTUNITY.
THE REASON THAT WE HAVE THIS OPPORTUNITY TO BRING THESE HERE, IT GIVES ME CHILLS, IS BECAUSE THESE PEOPLE STAYED OPEN WHEN NOBODY ELSE IN THE UNITED STATES STAYED OPEN.
THIS FACILITY, STAYED OPEN AND HOUSED RODEOS THROUGH THE PANDEMIC, SAVED A LOT OF PEOPLE, SAVING A LOT OF PEOPLE, A LOT OF MENTAL HEALTH ISSUES, AND PROVIDING OUR HOSPITALITY WITH
[00:40:01]
SOME, UH, WITH SOME BUSINESS.AND I APPRECIATE THAT, BUT THANK YOU.
BUT MORE IMPORTANTLY THAT IT INTRODUCED A WHOLE GROUP OF PEOPLE THAT HAVE NEVER BEEN TO OKLAHOMA BEFORE, UM, TO WHO WE ARE AND TO YOUR FACILITY.
AND, UH, THE ONLY THING I EVER HEARD WAS, IT'S JUST NOT BIG ENOUGH.
WE JUST NEED TO BE, NEEDED TO BE BIGGER.
AND I THINK YOU'RE PREPARED TO MAKE THAT HAPPEN IN ORDER TO MAKE THESE OPPORTUNITIES REAL.
THE SECOND THING I WANNA BRING TO OUR ATTENTION IS THE, ONE OF THE REASONS I LIKE THIS IS WE DON'T HAVE TO MAKE CAPITAL IMPROVEMENTS HERE.
SO IT'S NOT A CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT, UM, PROPOSITION FOR US.
AND THE OTHER NICE THING IS, IS WE DON'T HAVE ANY EMPLOYEES.
SO WE DON'T HAVE OPERATIONAL COSTS ASSOCIATED WITH THIS.
SO OUR RISK IS LIMITED IN THIS, BUT WE DO GET A LOT OF BENEFITS FROM IT.
SO IF WE CAN JUST PROVIDE YOU WITH CASH FROM TIME TO TIME AND HELP YOU TO GET EVENTS, UM, TO ME THAT'S A GOOD USE OF OUR MONEY.
AND I ALSO REALIZE THAT THIS IS $45,000 AND WE HAVEN'T, TO MY KNOWLEDGE, GIVEN $45,000 OUT OF OUR CONTINGENCY EVER.
UM, SO I UNDERSTAND THE ASK, BUT I DO THINK THAT THIS IS A UNIQUE OPPORTUNITY THAT WE OUGHT TO CONSIDER AND THAT WE OUGHT TO DO.
SO THAT'S SORT OF MY MARSH SPIEL.
I SERVE ON THE VIS EDIN BOARD.
AND DURING THE PANDEMIC, WHEN WE WERE LOOKING AT OUR BUDGET AND, AND NOT KNOWING WHAT WAS COMING, WE KNEW THAT IT WAS GONNA BE A ROUGH YEAR OR TWO, AND WE KEPT SEEING REVENUES COME IN FOR OUR LODGING AND, AND, UH, PARTNERSHIP REQUESTS WITH SOME OF THE EVENTS THAT YOU WERE HAVING.
AND I THINK WE PROBABLY EVERY MONTH THAT WE WERE MEETING, DAN WAS A PART OF THAT MEETING IN SOME WAY.
AND SO I I I THINK PARTNERSHIP IS A GREAT WORD.
AND WHEN WE'RE DOING THIS, AND I LOOK AT THIS, I, I WANT, EVEN THOUGH IT IS A PARTNERSHIP AND WE'RE LOOKING TO THE FUTURE IN, IN, IN MY MIND, UM, I I FEEL LIKE WE NEED TO SAY THANK YOU TO YOU TOO, AND NOT JUST FOR THE LAST COUPLE OF YEARS, BUT FOR, FOR THE 10, 15, 20 YEARS THAT EDMOND HAS BENEFITED FROM THE EVENTS AT LAZY ARENA.
AND I, I, I'D SAY AT VISIT EDMOND, IT'S, IT'S PROBABLY THE, TO, TO THE AVERAGE EDMUND RESIDENT WOULD NEVER KNOW HOW MUCH REVENUE WE WE GET IN EDMOND FROM LAZY E EVENTS.
UH, IT'S THE BIGGEST SECRET I THINK IN EDMOND, UH, NOT TO YOU, UH, OR MAYBE OUR VISIT ADMIN BOARD, BUT, BUT IT IS, UH, IT, IT'S A WONDERFUL, UH, OPPORTUNITY FOR US.
AND, AND I DO, I LOOK AT IT AS A PARTNERSHIP THE SAME.
AND TO EXPAND ON WHAT YOU JUST SAID ABOUT NUMBERS FOR THE TWO EVENTS THAT I'M GOING AFTER, THAT ONE, THEY'RE OFFERED SEQUENTIALLY.
SO THEY'RE, THEY HAVE BEDS OUT RIGHT NOW FOR THE FIRST ONE THAT'S THE JUNIOR HIGH FINALS, YOUNGER AGE KIDS.
THE NEXT ONE IS THE HIGH SCHOOL FINALS BEYOND THAT.
SO WE'RE GOING AFTER BOTH OF THEM COMBINED, 58,000 UNIQUE INDIVIDUALS, 179,000 PLUS DAYS THAT THEY WOULD BE IN YOUR CITY LODGING TAX ALONE, GENERATION OF OVER 300,000.
THIS IS ONE YEAR, REMEMBER? AND WE'RE GONNA HOPEFULLY SIGN THEM FOR 10 YEARS.
SO STATE AND LOCAL SALES TAX OF 1.69 MILLION.
THESE ARE NUMBERS COMING FROM INDEPENDENT RESEARCH FIRMS, NOT FOR ME.
AND A TOTAL ECONOMIC IMPACT OF $27 MILLION ONE ONE YEAR.
SO I, I APPRECIATE WHAT BOTH OF YOU SAID BECAUSE NUMBER OF THE HOTEL PROPERTIES HAVE COME TO ME AND SAID, IF IT WASN'T FOR US DURING COVID, WE'D BE BANKRUPT BECAUSE WE WERE ABLE TO STAY OPEN WITH YOUR COOPERATION WITH THE STATE'S COOPERATION.
WE DID EVERYTHING IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE CO COVID PROTOCOLS.
IT'S JUST OUR FACILITY OFFERED US THAT LATITUDE.
SO PART OF WHAT YOU WERE SAYING ABOUT OFFERING, OFFERING US A THANK YOU, WE OFFER YOU A HUGE THANK YOU FOR WORKING WITH US AND MAKING THAT OPPORTUNITY AVAILABLE BECAUSE THOSE EVENTS HAD A CHANCE TO COME HERE.
NOW GRANTED, THEY LOVE THE LAZY E FOR THE VENUE WHERE YOU WERE TALKING ABOUT FAMILY FRIENDLY, SAFE.
BUT YOU KNOW WHAT THEY SAID WHEN THEY LEFT? WE LOVE OKLAHOMA.
THE PEOPLE, WE WANT TO COME BACK HERE, THE PARTICIPANTS MADE THIS HAPPEN BECAUSE THEIR BOARD LISTENED TO 'EM, SAID, YOU KNOW WHAT, WE'VE NEVER DONE ANYTHING BEYOND A TWO YEAR AGREEMENT EVER.
THEIR MEMBERSHIP SAID, WE WANT TO COME HERE SO BAD, WE'LL OFFER A 10
[00:45:01]
YEAR DEAL.IF WE GET 'EM HERE FOR 10 YEARS, I DON'T THINK WE'LL EVER LOSE THEM.
I'LL ALSO SAY TOO, IN THAT TO THE AVERAGE RESIDENT MAY SAY LAZY E IS IN GUTHRIE, EVEN THOUGH IT'S NOT, IT'S, IT'S IN THAT DIRECTION.
BUT WE ALSO HAVE A PARTNERSHIP, A STRONG PARTNERSHIP WITH THE REGIONAL AIRPORT AT GUTHRIE.
AND WE ACTUALLY, UH, EACH YEAR, WHICH IS, WHICH IS A SMART DECISION IN MY OPINION, BUT IT'S MORE MONEY THAN THIS EACH YEAR THAT WE, UH, THAT WE PAY TO BE A PART OF THAT PARTNERSHIP.
AND SO WE'RE ALREADY, WE'RE ALREADY INVESTED IN THAT AREA, UM, AND HAVE THIS AND, AND THE LAZY E AND HOPEFULLY THAT CAN GROW EVEN STRONGER.
I KNOW IT'S FOUR, WOULD NOT TELL YOU WHICH WARD.
PLEASE DON'T, WE DON'T NEED A WAR FIGHT UP
YEAH, IT'S, IT'S RIGHT UP THE, WE JUST HAPPENED TO HAVE A GUTHRIE ADDRESS CAUSE OF THE COUNTY THAT WE'RE IN MM-HMM.
BUT I APPRECIATE IT ALSO THAT, UH, WHEN WE WERE GOING THROUGH THE PANDEMIC, I, YOU KNOW, IT WAS 52 WEEKS IN A YEAR STILL THAT DIDN'T CHANGE, BUT YOU ALL WERE OPEN 48, 47, SOMETHING LIKE THAT, WEEKS OF THE YEAR.
AND THE OTHER ONLY TIME YOU WERE DOWN WAS TO GIVE THE EMPLOYEES AND THE, THE FACILITY TIME TO BREATHE FOR A FEW MINUTES.
SO THAT'S PRETTY GOOD TO KEEP A FACILITY UP THAT MAGNITUDE OPEN FOR THAT.
UH, I REALLY APPRECIATE THAT AND, AND ALL THE THINGS THAT WE'RE STILL DOING IN EDMOND THAT CAN HELP BENEFIT, UM, THE LAZY E IN THIS, IN THIS REGION.
COUNCIL, ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? MM-HMM.
I WAS CURIOUS, UM, JUST IF YOU COULD EXPOUND A LITTLE BIT ON HOW THE 45,000 WOULD BE USED.
I'M, I'M HEARING TO EXPAND, I THINK THE CAPACITY OF THE ARENA MAYBE COULD JUST, I MEAN, I AGREE IT'S OBVIOUSLY A GREAT INVESTMENT FOR THE CITY OF EDMOND, BUT I WAS JUST CURIOUS IF YOU COULD EXPOUND ON THAT.
WELL, WE'RE NOT GONNA USE ANY CITY OR STATE, UH, FUNDS ON INFRASTRUCTURE.
AND WHAT WE'RE USING THIS MONEY FOR IS TO OFFSET SOME OF THE EXPENSE OF HOSTING THAT EVENT THE FIRST YEAR.
WE'RE COMPETING AGAINST VENUES THAT ARE ALL EITHER CITY, COUNTY, OR STATE OWNED.
AND THEY ALL HAVE UNDERWRITING MECHANISMS THAT GO AGAINST SOME OF THESE COST THAT WE HAVE TO OVERCOME TO BE COMPETITIVE.
SO WHAT YOU'RE DOING IS ACTUALLY OFFERING US AN OPPORTUNITY TO CURB SOME OF THE EXPENSES IN RECRUITING AND, AND HOSTING.
BUT IN TURN, THE NATIONAL JUNIOR HIGH ASSOCIATION IS GIVING THE CITY OF EDMOND SPONSORSHIP ASSETS EQUAL TO THE DOLLAR CONTRIBUTION.
SO YOU CAN USE THOSE TO PROMOTE HOTELS, RESTAURANTS, AND ACTIVITIES IN EDMOND TO DRIVE TRAFFIC THIS WAY.
YOU'RE ALWAYS MORE THAN WELCOME TO COME TO THE LAZY ZEE.
I DO VIEW IT AS A PARTNERSHIP BECAUSE IF IT WAS NOT FOR YOUR SUPPORT, WE COULD NOT FUNCTION.
AT LEAST NOT AT THE CAPACITY THAT WE ARE.

UM, SO THOSE ITEMS IN FRONT OF YOU ARE THE ONES THAT WE SPONSOR EVERY YEAR.
THE ONES THAT IS NOT ON THERE IS PROJECT 66, AND THAT'S BECAUSE THEY STILL HAVE CARES FUNDING THAT THEY'RE SPENDING.

THREE? BRIAN, DO YOU MIND IF I ASK A QUESTION? YES.AND IT'S REALLY JUST, I, I DON'T, I THINK THIS IS AMAZING AND I WANNA PINCH MYSELF THAT WE'RE GONNA HAVE SOMETHING THAT'S COOL AT KICKING BIRD.
FIVE YEARS IS A LONG CONTRACT AND, AND I'M ASSUMING YOU'VE GOT SOME, UM, REQUIREMENTS IN THERE FOR BOTH PARTIES TO MEET EACH TIME.
BUT HOWEVER, THIS DOES THIS FIVE YEARS ON A CONTRACT LIKE THIS CONCERN YOU AT ALL.
UM, THANK YOU COUNCIL AND, UM, BRIAN SORENS AND DIRECTOR OF GOLF DOES NOT CONCERN ME.
NOW, I WILL TELL YOU THAT WE ARE KIND OF ENTERING INTO A NEW FRONTIER AT KICKING BIRD.
UM, IT'S BEEN PART OF OUR PROJECT TO LOOK AT ALTERNATIVE SOURCES OF REVENUE.
AND THIS PARTICULAR, UH, ITEM HAS TO DO WITH THE RECREATIONAL ENTERTAINMENT PART OF THE RANGE PAVILION.
SO THOSE OF YOU THAT ARE FAMILIAR WITH TOP GOLF, THIS IS THE TYPE OF EXPERIENCE WE'RE GONNA TRY TO OFFER TO THOSE GOLFERS THAT WOULD YOU NOT MAYBE CONSIDER CORE GOLFERS.
UM, FLIGHT GOLF IS ACTUALLY THE GROUP THAT PUT IN THE FLYING TEE UP IN TULSA, IF YOU ALL ARE FAMILIAR WITH THAT FACILITY AT ALL.
THEY ALSO HAVE OTHER VENUES IN INDIANAPOLIS, LAS VEGAS.
THEY'RE GONNA BE OUT AT PGA STADIUM COURSE OUT IN CALIFORNIA.
THEY ARE KIND OF EXPERTS IN THE RANGE ENTERTAINMENT FIELD.
BUT WHAT'S UNIQUE TO OURS IS WE'RE ONLY FOUR BAYS WHERE THEY'RE USED TO DOING 60 TO 72 BAYS.
JOHN HOLBROOK ACTUALLY LIVES HERE.
UM, I KNOW THAT HE'S VERY SUPPORTIVE OF THIS ISSUE AND I REALLY DON'T HAVE A CONCERN.
NOW, ONE OF THE THINGS THAT WE DO IN THE CITY ATTORNEY CAN SPEAK TO THIS AS WELL IS THESE ARE ANNUAL AGREEMENTS THAT WE RENEW EACH YEAR.
SO IF IT'S NOT A BENEFIT TO BOTH PARTIES, THEN WE CAN CERTAINLY SIT BACK DOWN AT THE TABLE AND SAY, HEY, WE NEED TO REALLY REVISIT THIS.
AND SO THAT'S WHAT GIVES ME A LITTLE BIT OF A, A SAFETY NET ON THAT.
PART OF IT IS THAT, YES, THE INITIAL IS 50,000 OUTTA THE CIP, BUT EVERYTHING ELSE WILL BE FUNDED THROUGH OUR OPERATIONAL FUNDS OUT OF THE DRIVING RANGE REVENUE SOURCES.
