CITY MANAGER'S PROGRESS REPORT. 
          THANK YOU, MAYOR. 
          UM, WE HAVE LOTS TO COVER TONIGHT, BUT BEFORE WE START, I WANTED TO TAKE A MOMENT TO RECOGNIZE, UH, THE PASSING OF OUR FORMER FIRE CHIEF DGH MAKER WHO PASSED AWAY THIS PAST FRIDAY. 
          UH, HE WAS WITH OUR FIRE DEPARTMENT FOR 29 YEARS, FROM 1972 UNTIL WE RETIRED IN 2001, AND HE WAS THE FIRE CHIEF FROM 93 TO 2001. 
          SO, UH, WE WANT TO, UH, NOTE HIS SERVICE TO US AND, UH, PASS ALONG OUR CONDOLENCES TO HIS FAMILY. 
          AND I KNOW OUR EDMOND FIRE, UH, FAMILY WILL BE, UH, PART OF THAT, UM, FUNERAL PROCESS. 
          MM-HMM. 
          . 
          SO, ALL RIGHT. 
          SO WE READY? WE'RE READY. 
          GOT A LOT TO COVER. 
          A LOT OF GOOD THINGS GOING ON IN EDMONDS. 
          SO, FIRST OF ALL, I WANTED TO TALK ABOUT SOME OF THE TRAFFIC IMPROVEMENTS. 
          UH, ONE THAT'S BEEN, UH, KIND OF THE FRONT AND CENTER FOR MANY, MANY MONTHS IS FINALLY IS WE'RE REACHING THE CONCLUSION OF THAT, THAT SECOND IN BRYANT, AFTER 15 MONTHS OF CONSTRUCTION, THE ROAD PORTION AND THE IMPROVEMENTS TO THE INTERSECTION OF SECOND STREET AND BRYAN ARE SUBSTANTIALLY COMPLETE AND OPEN TO TRAFFIC. 
          IF YOU HAVEN'T DRIVEN IT, IT'S ACTUALLY A PLEASURE TO DRIVE. 
          NOW, , UM, I THINK I WAS DOING THE SPEED LIMIT. 
          I'LL JUST LEAVE IT AT THAT. 
          STAFF IS STILL WORKING ON THROUGH SOME OF THE MINOR ISSUES, UH, FINISHING UP SOME OF THE TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT SYSTEM. 
          AND APPARENTLY THEY TELL ME WE'RE, WE'RE SETTING UP THE INFRARED DETECTION SYSTEM. 
          THAT SOUNDS KIND OF LIKE A SUPERHUMAN, UH, STORY. 
          BUT ANYWAY, COVELL AND COLTRANE, YOU MAY REMEMBER, UM, THAT IS A MAJOR PROJECT, BUT WE DIDN'T WANNA WAIT UNTIL WE JUST, UH, WERE READY TO THE MAJOR PROJECT. 
          SO WE DID AN INTERIM PROJECT. 
          WE DON'T HAVE A PICTURE OF IT, BUT IF YOU'VE BEEN THROUGH THAT INTERSECTION, COVILLE AND COLTRANE, YOU REMEMBER, IT WAS JUST A FOUR-WAY STOP, UH, ESPECIALLY DURING THE MORNING AND EVENING RUSH HOURS. 
          IT WAS A, A CONGESTION AREA. 
          STAFF WAS GOOD TO MAKE IMPROVEMENTS THIS PAST MONTH, ALONG WITH STRIPING TO ADD DESIGNATED LEFT TURN LANES IN THE THREE OF THE DIRECTIONS. 
          ADMIN ELECTRIC WILL BE WORKING WITH FIELD SERVERS TO HAVE A TEMPORARY, UM, WIRE, UH, POLE SET UP FOR SIGNALS. 
          UM, UNFORTUNATELY WITH SUPPLY CHAIN, THOSE HAVE BEEN ON ORDER, AND THEY'LL BE ABOUT A 16 WEEK LEAD TIME. 
          BUT IF YOU'VE BEEN THROUGH THERE, IT'S MUCH BETTER DRAMATICALLY. 
          MM-HMM. 
           RADICALLY, UH, IMPROVED. 
          MM-HMM. 
          . 
          ALL RIGHT. 
          I WANT TO TAKE A SPECIAL NOTE. 
          UH, YOU MAY HAVE HEARD, DURING THE LAST HURRICANE IN FLORIDA, WE SENT OUT A CREW SEVEN ON A LINEMAN AND FORD TRUCKS TRAVEL TO FLORIDA ON SEPTEMBER 28TH TO HELP WITH THE RESPONSE FOR COMMUNITIES AFFECTED BY A HURRICANE IAN. 
          THEY'RE PART OF OUR OKLAHOMA BRIGADE, WHICH INCLUDED PERSONNEL FROM, I'M GONNA BUTCHER THIS. 
          SKI. 
          TOOK SKY, TOOK SKY, TOOK SKY, TOOK STILLWATER QUA. 
          MM-HMM. 
          . 
          YEAH, . 
          NICE. 
          YOU'RE GETTING THERE. 
          G R D A AND OTHERS. 
          THE MOND ELECTRIC GROUP WAS INITIALLY SIGNED TO MOUNT DOOR AREA IN FLORIDA. 
          AFTER HURRICANE IAN MADE LANDFALL TO MORE MOUNT DOOR AND UTILITY RELEASED THE RESPONDING CREWS AS THEY DID NOT SUSTAIN THE DAMAGE THEY HAD ORIGINALLY ANTICIPATED. 
          AND THEY REDIRECTED TO SEVERAL SMALL POWER, UH, UTILITIES IN THE MOUNT, IN THE MORE HAVEN FLORIDA AREA. 
          UH, THE MORE HAVEN AREA SUSTAINED DAMAGE TO THE INFRASTRUCTURE. 
          UH, BUT THEY REMAINED INNER CHARGED, UH, ENERGIZED THE WHOLE TIME. 
          BUT OUR CREWS WERE ASSIGNED, TASKED TO PLACE A COUPLE BROKEN DISTRIBUTOR POLES AND TRANSFORMERS, AND DID OTHER VARIOUS WORK. 
          UM, THE CREWS MENTIONED THE UTILITY THEY RESPONDED TO ONLY HAD ONE ALIGNMENT ON STAFF. 
          MM. 
          SO TO THINK THAT WE BROUGHT SEVEN ON THAT MM-HMM. 
          , UH, ONCE THEY COMPLETED THE WORK, THEY WERE NOTIFIED, UH, THAT THEY WERE RELEASED TO RETURN BACK TO THEIR HOMES OCTOBER 4TH. 
          BUT I WANNA TAKE A SPECIAL NOTE. 
          IF YOU SEE THESE PICTURES, THERE'S LIKE TWO OF THE OLDER GUARD, AND THEN WE HAVE LIKE THE, THE GUYS THAT, I THINK THEY JUST GRADUATED FROM HIGH SCHOOL LAST WEEK OR SOMETHING. 
          BUT, UM, WES BENNETT, JASON SMITH, MIKE CROWE, CALEB CROSS, KYLE WILSON, DAN MATTHEWS, AND CJ SMITHS KEY. 
          SO JUST 
          [00:05:01]
A HUGE SHOUT OUT TO THEM. 
          I KNOW, UM, THEY MAY NOT HAVE HEARD IT FROM THE, FROM THE INDIVIDUALS IN MORE HAVEN, BUT I KNOW, OR MORE HAVEN FRIENDS ARE EXTREMELY HAPPY THAT, UH, OUR EDMOND ELECTRIC CREWS ARE OUT THERE. 
          SO BIG THANKS TO THEM. 
          MM-HMM. 
          . 
          UM, ALRIGHT. 
          OUR PARKS DIRECTOR SEARCH UPDATE IS GOING VERY WELL. 
          WE RECEIVE NEARLY 60 APPLICANTS FOR THE POSITION 14. 
          APPLICANTS HAVE BEEN NARROWED DOWN AND SET A QUESTIONNAIRE FOR FURTHER INFORMATION. 
          AND THOSE, UH, ANSWERS WERE RECEIVED WILL BE RECEIVED NEXT WEEK. 
          DETERMINE WHO WILL MOVE FORWARD. 
          INTERVIEWS, INTERVIEWS WILL CONSIST OUR FIRST ROUND. 
          THAT NARROWS DOWN TO THE, A FINAL, UH, GROUPING. 
          I DON'T KNOW WHAT THAT NUMBER IS, MAYBE THREE TO FOUR OR FOUR TO FIVE THAT'LL PARTICIPATE IN A COMPREHENSIVE INTERVIEW DAY WITH MULTIPLE STAKEHOLDER GROUPS, WHICH INCLUDE OUTSIDE OF CITY STAFF. 
          OUR GOAL IS, UM, OBVIOUSLY AS WE COME UP TO THE HOLIDAYS, PROBABLY MORE REALISTIC Q1 IS WHEN WE'LL HAVE OUR NEW DIRECTOR TO START IN THAT POSITION. 
          BUT, UH, WHAT A GREAT OPPORTUNITY FOR SOMEBODY TO COME INTO THIS. 
          ALL RIGHT, WE GOTTA TALK ABOUT SOMETHING CRITICAL. 
          AND THAT'S ANIMAL SHELTER CAPACITY. 
          UH, THE CITY OF EDMOND ANIMAL SHELTER IS FACING, UH, DOG OVERPOPULATION CHALLENGES, WHICH ARE BEING SEEN BY RESCUES AND SHELTERS ACROSS THE STATE. 
          OUR ANIMAL SHELTER CURRENTLY HAS MORE THAN 25 DOGS AVAILABLE FOR ADOPTION. 
          I DON'T KNOW WHY THEY PICKED FIVE. 
          I DON'T KNOW IF THAT WAS TAMIR, THE NUMBER OF COUNCIL MEMBERS, BUT WHO LET YOU PICK WHO IT'S, I DON'T WANNA SAY WHO'S DRAMA, BUT YOU CAN TALK AMONGST YOURSELVES. 
          OKAY. 
          . 
          WELL, I KINDA WANNA BE ROCK LOBSTER THAT HE, HE IS QUITE THE DOG. 
          UH, SOME OF THESE HAVE GONE WITH ME AS I'VE WENT OUT AND MEET WITH OUR, UH, WORK GROUPS. 
          AND WE TRY AND BRING A ONE OF THESE ALONG WITH US, AND IT'S, IT'S VERY WELL RECEIVED AND IT'S KIND OF MY, UH, EMOTIONAL SUPPORT. 
          I GO OUT TO MEET WITH STAFF ONE, ONE . 
          UH, WE ENCOURAGE THOSE LOOKING FOR CANINE COMPANION TO CHECK OUT EM AND ANIMAL SHELTER ADOPTION FEES. 
          I'LL TELL YOU THIS, I'VE, WE'VE ADOPTED TWO OR THREE DOGS OVER OUR FAMILY LIFE, AND I THINK MOST OF 'EM WERE 1 75 TO $200 TO ADOPT A DOG. 
          SO, TO THINK YOU CAN PICK UP A GREAT, UH, COMPANION FOR $25 IS REALLY NOT ONLY A GREAT BARGAIN, BUT A GREAT SERVICE TO THE COMMUNITY. 
          SO, AND IF WE HAD OUR WAY, I'D BE HAVING MULTIPLE MULTIPLES OF LOWS IN OUR HOUSE, BUT, UM, WIFE TWISTS THE WHIP DOWN, SO, OKAY. 
          I, I JUST WANNA LET YOU KNOW, EDMUND IS THE PLACE OF HAPPENING THINGS. 
          SO THE SCENE OF EDMUND SAW ANOTHER SUCCESSFUL SEASON EVENTS THIS SUMMER IN EARLY FALL, INCLUDING VIBES HEARD ON HER AND THE RED DAY RUN. 
          UM, SO I JUST RUN THROUGH THIS SUMMER EXCITEMENT. 
          SECOND SEASON OF VIBES WRAPPED UP ON OCTOBER 6TH. 
          VIBES IS A FREE EVENT HELD IN DOWNTOWN MOND ON THE FIRST THURSDAY OF EACH MONTH, WHERE THE COMMUNITY CAN VIEW VISUAL AND PERFORMING ARTS. 
          EACH ARTIST IS PAIRED WITH THE DOWNTOWN BUSINESS AND HAS A SMALL BOOST SET UP WITH ART FOR VIEWING PURCHASE THROUGHOUT THEIR SECOND SEASON. 
          THE AVERAGE BETWEEN A THOUSAND TO 3000 ATTENDEES EACH MONTH FOR AN ESTIMATED TOTAL ECONOMIC IMPACT OF OVER HALF A MILLION FOR 2022. 
          GREAT EVENT. 
          UM, ALWAYS FUN TO GO DOWN THERE AND SEE ALL THE ACTIVITY. 
          THE SECOND ONE IS HEARD ON HERD. 
          FOR NINE YEARS, CITIZEN BANK OF EDMOND HAS HOSTED AN EVENING FOOD TRUCK FESTIVAL AND DOWNTOWN EDMOND ON THE THIRD SATURDAY EACH MONTH FROM MARCH TO OCTOBER, UM, THROUGHOUT SEASON NINE, THE AVERAGE ATTENDANCE ROUGHLY WAS BETWEEN 20 AND 25,000 ATTENDEES EACH MONTH. 
          WITH MARCH, HAVING, UH, THEY SAID OVER 45,000 ATTENDEES, HER UNHEARD HAS LED TO MORE THAN 60 MILLION OF ECONOMIC IMPACT SINCE INCEPTION. 
          AND I WOULD SAY AS A, AS A NEW PERSON HERE, THE COMMUNITY, WE LOVE GOING TO BOTH OF THESE EVENTS. 
          IT'S GREAT TO BE THE COMMUNITY THAT HAS THESE TYPE OF EVENTS COMING DOWNTOWN. 
          MM-HMM. 
          , PHIL AND I WANTED TO HIGHLIGHT HIS RED DAY RUN. 
          UH, THE RED DAY RUN HELD BY KELLER WILLIAMS IN DOWNTOWN EDMOND ON OCTOBER 1ST ACHIEVED A MILESTONE THIS YEAR. 
          AFTER ONLY EIGHT YEARS OF HOSTING THIS EVENT, THEY SURPASSED OVER $1 MILLION IN DONATIONS TO LOCAL NONPROFITS IN OUR COMMUNITY. 
          THEY GAVE OUT 225,000 TO EIGHT LOCAL NONPROFITS FROM THIS YEAR'S EVENT. 
          AND WE HAVE A COUPLE MORE COMING UP THAT WE'LL TALK ABOUT IS, UM, UCO INTERNATIONAL FESTIVAL, CYCLE 66. 
          I KNOW LA MERO WILL BE LEADING THAT EFFORT OUT THERE.

          BUT WE DO HAVE, OF THE 12 ITEMS TONIGHT, WE DO HAVE TWO STAFF PRESENTATIONS AND ONE STAFF COMMENTS. 
          SO WE CAN TAKE THOSE IN ORDER OF THE PRESENTATIONS FOR 
          [9.  Discussion and consideration of Adoption of the EdmondShift Long-Range Mobility Plan.]
FIVE A NINE, WHICH IS A DISCUSSION IN CONSIDERATION OF ADOPTION OF THE EDMUND SCHIFF LONG RANGE MOBILITY PLAN. 
          THANK YOU. 
          UH, AS YOU KNOW, UH, SINCE AUGUST OF 2021, WE'VE BEEN WORKING ON THE PLAN FOR THE CITY'S MOBILITY AND TRANSPORTATION PROGRAM ON THE WISE KNOWN AS EDMUND SHIFT. 
          UH, SEPTEMBER 26TH, THIS COUNCIL HEARD AND HAD A WORKSHOP ON THAT. 
          AND SINCE THEN, UH, THE CONSULTANT HAS WORKED TO MAKE RELEVANT CHANGES BASED ON THE FEEDBACK WE RECEIVED DURING THE ADOPTION PROCESS. 
          JEFF WHITAKER WITH KIMLEY HORN HAS BEEN THE LEAD FOR THEM, AND HE'S HERE TO PRESENT THAT TONIGHT. 
          GOOD EVENING COUNCIL'S GONNA BE BACK. 
          SO WE'VE CREATED A RELATIVELY SHORT PRESENTATION, REALLY FOCUSED ON RECAPPING WHAT EDMAN SHIFT IS, KIND OF THE OVERVIEW, BUT WHAT WE CHANGED SINCE LAST TIME. 
          SO WHAT, WHAT MAKES EDMUND SHIFT UNIQUE IS WE'RE DEVELOPING A CONFERENCE OF STRATEGIC PLAN THAT PUTS ALL MOBILITY INTO ONE DOCUMENT AS OPPOSED TO HAVING MULTIPLE DOCUMENTS. 
          SO THE IDEA WAS TO CREATE ONE CONFERENCE OF DOCUMENT THAT SOMEONE COULD PICK UP AND UNDERSTAND THE STRATEGIES GOING FORWARD AND MOBILITY WITHIN THE CITY. 
          UM, AS MENTIONED, WE HAVE BEEN ON THIS SINCE AUGUST. 
          WE HAD AN ADVISORY COMMITTEE THAT WORKED WITH US THROUGH EIGHT DIFFERENT SECTIONS, REALLY FOR THE FIRST, FOR LAST YEAR. 
          WE WERE WORKING ON ANALYSIS THIS YEAR, BEEN WORKING ON RECOMMENDATIONS. 
          WE HELD AN OPEN HOUSE IN SEPTEMBER WHERE PEOPLE, MANY OF Y'ALL ATTENDED THAT OPEN HOUSE AS WELL. 
          WE HAD ABOUT 60 FOLKS ATTEND AND GIVE, GIVE US FEEDBACK A LITTLE BIT ABOUT ENGAGEMENT. 
          WE HAD A, A MOBILITY FAIR EARLIER IN THE YEAR TO REALLY GET UNDERSTANDING OF WHAT THIS, WHAT PEOPLE WANTED IN THE CITY. 
          WE DID A LOT OF ONLINE IMPLEMENTATION 
          [00:15:01]
AND A LOT OF JUST IN PERSON ACTIVITIES THROUGHOUT THE YEAR. 
          AND OUR CONTINUE TO DO THAT, I THINK THERE'LL BE A BOOTH. 
          UM, ED SHIFT DOES NOT STOP WITH THIS PLAN. 
          IT CONTINUES. 
          THE IDEAL IS THAT IT'LL CONTINUE GOING FORWARD. 
          SO I BELIEVE ON THE 66 ROUTE, THERE WILL BE A BOOTH AS WELL, JUST TO CONTINUE TO GET PEOPLE IN INFORMATION OUT THERE. 
          UM, THE VISION IS THAT EDMUND WILL CREATE AND MAINTAIN A MULTIPLE NETWORK THAT'S CONVENIENT AND SAFE TO EVERYONE. 
          AS I MENTIONED LAST TIME, THAT'S A SHORT SENSE WITH A LOT OF MEANINGS IN THAT WORD. 
          IT'S A MULTIMODAL NETWORK WITH MANY OPTIONS THAT'S CONVENIENT, SAFE FOR EVERYONE'S A LOT. 
          IN THAT SHORT SENTENCE, THERE WERE SEVERAL GOALS ESTABLISHED TO CREATE A WELL MAINTAINED MOBILITY SYSTEM, HEALTHY AND ACTIVE LIFESTYLE, UH, SUSTAINABLE. 
          WE WANNA MAKE SURE THAT THIS IS GONNA LAST US IN THE FUTURE. 
          SAFETY IS ONE OF OUR HIGHEST PRIORITIES. 
          WE WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT WE'RE USING THE APPROPRIATE TOOLS TO MODERNIZE IT. 
          I KNOW YOU HAVE SOME, UM, MENTIONED, UM, INFRARED EARLIER AS TECHNOLOGY, MAKING SURE YOU'RE ON THAT FOREFRONT OF TECHNOLOGY, MAKING SURE THAT'S MAXIMIZING YOUR INFRASTRUCTURE WITH THAT LEVERAGE. 
          LAND USE AND DESIGN. 
          LAND USE IS DIRECTLY RELATED TO TRANSPORTATION. 
          SO MAKING SURE YOU'RE RECOGNIZING THAT AND USE ALL THESE GOALS TO PRIORITIZE YOUR INFRASTRUCTURE. 
          UM, JUST A FEW HIGHLIGHTS FROM THE OPEN HOUSE. 
          UM, ONE OF THE ITEMS WAS TO MAKE SURE WE EMPHASIZE DOWNTOWN A LITTLE BIT MORE. 
          SO WE WENT THROUGH THE DOCUMENT AND ADDED SOME IMAGES I'LL SHOW YOU AND REALLY MAKE SURE DOWNTOWN WAS PAVILION IN THE CONNECTIONS TO DOWNTOWN. 
          WE ALSO HEARD FROM SOME TO PLAN FOR SCHOOLS. 
          WE HAD SOME OF IT IN THERE, BUT MADE IT MORE APPARENT THAT SCHOOLS ARE SOMETIMES THE BIGGEST TRAFFIC JAMS. AND WE NEED TO CONSIDER SCHOOLS, UM, INVEST IN PEDESTRIAN INFRASTRUCTURE. 
          THAT WAS ALREADY IN THE PLAN, BUT WE HEARD THAT A LOT OF THE, THE, THE OPEN HOUSE MAKE SURE THAT WE CONTINUE TO PRIORITIZE OUR PEDESTRIAN INFRASTRUCTURE. 
          A LOT OF PEOPLE ATTENDED THE OPEN HOUSE, WHICH I BELIEVE WAS THE LAST COUNCIL MEETING. 
          WE TALKED A LOT ABOUT THE TRANSIT SYSTEM, ABOUT THE A HUNDRED X. 
          THERE WAS A LOT OF PEOPLE INTERESTED ABOUT THE, THE ROUTE THAT GOES FROM ADMIN TO OKLAHOMA CITY. 
          A LOT OF POSITIVE COMMENTS ABOUT IMPROVEMENTS, DEVICE FROM PEDESTRIAN SAFETY. 
          AND ONE OF THE FEW PEOPLE MENTIONED THAT THEY THOUGHT THE BEST PART OF THE PLANT WAS THE APPENDIX, WHICH IS A LOT OF NEW TOOLS THAT MAYBE THEY HAVEN'T SEEN USED IN EDIN, WHICH IS THE PEDESTRIAN BICYCLE TOOLBOX. 
          AND EXCITED TO APPLY THAT TO THE CITY. 
          THESE ARE, WE DID AN ONLINE SURVEY. 
          MOST OF THE COMMENTS WE GOT WERE IN PERSON, BUT WE GOT SEVERAL ONLINE. 
          AND THESE ARE JUST SOME OF THE COMMENTS THAT, THAT WE, WE HAD A LOT OF POSITIVE, SOME, SOME COMMENTING TOWARDS THE HUNDRED X. 
          UM, REALLY JUST SOME EXCITEMENT ABOUT SEEING SOME OF THE, UM, PROJECTS IMPLEMENTED OVER THE UPCOMING YEARS. 
          ONE OF THE THINGS THAT CHANGED, AS I MENTIONED, WE WANTED TO EMPHASIZE DOWNTOWN. 
          SO WE REALLY, UM, PUT US THE FOREFRONT, MAKING SURE THAT WE BREAK THE BARRIERS FROM DOWNTOWN TO THE ADJACENT UCO ACROSS THE RAILROAD TRACKS AND ACROSS, UM, SECOND STREET EDMUND ROAD. 
          THIS IS JUST A SAMPLE IMAGE FROM THE REPORT TO MAKE SURE THAT IT'S AT THE FOREFRONT. 
          UM, ROADWAY CHAPTER CHANGES, AS I MENTIONED, WE REFERENCE THE TIA STANDARDS TO BE UPDATED. 
          CONSIDER CU ANALYSIS FOR SPECIAL LAND USES AND TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT PLANS FOR SCHOOLS. 
          WE THINK IT'S IMPORTANT WHEN SCHOOLS COME IN TO HAVE THAT TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT PLAN ASSOCIATED SO WE CAN PREVENT FUTURE CONSIDERATIONS AS WELL AS WE MAINTAIN EXISTING AND UPDATE THE FORMAT OF THE CROSS SECTIONS TO MAKE THEM MORE LEGIBLE AND READABLE. 
          UM, ONE OF THE THINGS THAT CHANGES, WE WANTED TO ADD GOVERNANCE TO THIS, THIS PLAN, AS I MENTIONED EARLIER, SHOULDN'T STOP WITH THE ADOPTION. 
          IT'S THE START OF THE PLAN. 
          REALLY, THE START OF THE PLAN IS THE ADOPTION. 
          SO THE, THE CITY TO CREATE AND STAFF A CITIZEN LED BOARDING COMMISSION TO OVERSEE THE PLAN TO MAKE SURE IT KEEPS RELEVANT SO THAT IT'S AT THE FOREFRONT OF EVERYONE'S MIND. 
          KIND OF THE, THE PHILOSOPHY OF THAT. 
          UM, WE DID GO BACK THROUGH THE PRIORITIZATION OF PROJECTS THROUGH IMPACT. 
          UM, MOST OF IT STAYED THE SAME. 
          UM, ONE OF THE THINGS THAT CHANGED IS WE ADDED A DOWNTOWN IMPLEMENTATION PLAN REALLY TO MAKE SURE THAT STRATEGY, WHAT COMES FIRST, WHAT COMES SECOND. 
          UM, WE HIGHLIGHTED CORRIDORS THE IMPLEMENTATION OF THE TOOLBOX. 
          WE HEARD A LOT OF EXCITEMENT ABOUT THAT TOOLBOX, AND THERE WAS ALREADY PROJECTS THAT WERE USING THAT TOOLBOX. 
          WE JUST MADE IT MORE CLEAR THAT THESE ARE THE PROJECTS WE'RE CONSIDERING DOING THAT ON. 
          AND ONE OF THE PROJECTS I GOT ADDED THAT WASN'T BEFORE WAS DANFORTH JUST WEST OF 35, WHICH IS ALREADY A PROJECT THAT WAS IN THE CITY. 
          C I P JUST WASN'T IN THE EDMOND SHIFT. 
          AND AS WE REDID THE PRIORITIZATION, THAT ONE POPPED UP. 
          JUST SOME MINOR CHANGES TO THAT. 
          SO REALLY THE NEXT STEPS WOULD BE TO, UM, ENTERTAIN QUESTIONS FOR YOU, POTENTIALLY ADOPT EDMOND SHIFT, AND THEN, AS I MENTIONED, BEGIN IMPLEMENTING THE ACTION PLAN OF THE PROGRAM. 
          AND WITH THAT, I'LL TAKE ANY QUESTIONS THAT YOU MAY HAVE. 
          FIRST OF ALL, I WANNA SAY THANK YOU. 
          THIS IS A BIG STEP FOR OUR COMMUNITY AS WE LOOK AT OUR EXPANSION AND MOBILITY OPTIONS FOR EVERYONE. 
          UM, I'M, I'M, I'M EXCITED ABOUT IT. 
          ANY OTHER QUESTIONS, COMMENTS? OH, I, IF I CAN SAY SOMETHING ON ONE THING IN TOTALLY THRILLED ABOUT THIS PROCESS AND, AND HOW IT HAPPENED AND INTENDED A FEW OF THE MEETINGS, BUT I WANT TO SAY THERE GOES INTO DETAIL A LITTLE BIT ABOUT SIZE OF RIGHT AWAY THAT WE'RE LOOKING AT IN THE FUTURE. 
          AND I THINK WE'RE TALKING ABOUT INTERSECTIONS, MAYBE ROUNDABOUTS, AND THEN ALSO, UH, EXPANDING SOME ROADWAYS AND SOME MAJOR THOROUGHFARES. 
          IT, IT THROWS OUT THE, THE PLAN ITSELF THROWS OUT 
          [00:20:01]
SOME, SOME SIZES OF RIGHT OF AWAYS. 
          AND I JUST, AND, AND I'M OKAY WITH, I KNOW THAT'S A NEED WHERE IT'S GOING TO BE NEEDED IN THE FUTURE, BUT I WANNA ACKNOWLEDGE THAT WE DON'T KNOW THE SPECIFIC AREAS WHERE THAT'S GOING TO BE. 
          AND I DON'T, I DON'T WANT IT TO BE, I WANNA VOTE FOR THIS AND I WANNA START IMPLEMENTING IT, BUT I DON'T WANT THAT PARTICULAR MY VOTE TO SAY THAT'S A BLANKET STATEMENT FOR THE AMOUNT OF RIGHT OF WAY THAT WE'RE GONNA BE NEEDING AND, AND TAKING EVERYWHERE IN EAST EDMOND. 
          IT'S SPECIFICALLY WHERE IT'S GOING TO GO. 
          I JUST DON'T THINK THAT THE LANDOWNERS HAVE BEEN INVOLVED TO A POINT YET. 
          UM, OR KNOW OUR, OUR MAJOR TRANSPORTATION PLAN IN EAST EDMOND TO BE INVOLVED AS MUCH AS THEY SHOULD YET. 
          SO AT, AT SOME POINT, IF IT GETS MORE SPECIFIC, SPECIFIC IN POLICY, I'D JUST LIKE THAT TO BE A LITTLE MORE SPECIFIC WITH THE TRANSPORTATION PLAN. 
          MM-HMM. 
          , I WOULD SECOND THAT. 
          I'M, I GET CONCERNED ON THE SIZE OF THOSE EASEMENTS. 
          THAT'S WHAT IT MIGHT DO TO THE AFFORDABILITY OF THE PROPERTIES THAT WE BUILD IN EAST EDMOND. 
          SO I TRUST THAT WE'LL GET THE PROPER RIGHT OF AWAYS WHERE WE NEED THEM AT THE INTERSECTIONS, BUT WE WILL NOT TAKE MORE THAN WE NEED IN THE REST OF THE PROPERTY. 
          MM-HMM. 
           VERY GOOD. 
          THANK YOU. 
          WELL, THAT'S ALL THE QUESTIONS FROM COUNCIL. 
          WELL THANK OUR COMMENTS. 
          WE GREATLY APPRECIATE IT. 
          AND WE'LL VOTE ON THIS IN A SECOND. 
          OUR 
          [11.  Discussion and Consideration of a Transfer of Appropriation for a contract with GH2 Architects LLC to design a joint use building for a 2nd library and new YMCA; $1,225,000]
NEXT, UH, STAFF PRESENTATION IS FOR ITEM FIVE 11, DISCUSSION AND CONSIDERATION OF A TRANSFER APPROPRIATION FOR A CONTRACT WITH G TWO ARCHITECTS, LLC TO DESIGN A JOINT USE BUILDING FOR A SECOND LIBRARY AND NEW Y M C A FOR $1,225,000. 
          THANK YOU MAYOR. 
          APPRECIATE THAT. 
          ANDY CORNIER, ASSISTANT CITY MANAGER OF ADMINISTRATION. 
          UM, SO THERE'S TWO ITEMS ON YOUR AGENDA THIS EVENING RELATED TO THE DESIGN OF THE, UH, WHAT WE LIKE TO CALL MULTI-GENERATIONAL COMMUNITY SPACE, WHICH WILL BE A SECOND LIBRARY IN ADDITIONAL Y M C A. 
          AND I THOUGHT RATHER THAN ME COMING UP HERE TWICE, I'LL JUST GO OVER THEM BOTH IN THE SAME PRESENTATION. 
          SO FIRST I'D LIKE TO RECOGNIZE OUR PARTNERS THAT ARE HERE. 
          UH, LARRY WHITE WITH THE METRO LIBRARY SYSTEM, AS WELL AS SCOTT MITCHELL AND MIKE ARK FROM THE Y M C A AND THEN ALSO STEVE COMMONS, WHO, AS MANY OF YOU KNOW, UH, HAD A 40 YEAR CAREER IN LOCAL GOVERNMENT, THE LAST 15 OF WHICH WITH THE CITY OF EDMUND AND HAS SO SINCE JOINED US AS A CONSULTANT AND HAS BEEN THE CITY'S POINT ON THIS PROJECT. 
          AND SO WE WOULDN'T BE AT THIS POINT WHERE WE ARE WITHOUT MR. WHITE, MR. MITCHELL, AND MR. ROURKE, AND ESPECIALLY MR. COMMON. 
          SO BIG THANKS TO TO EVERYONE THAT'S, THAT'S HERE IN ATTENDANCE THIS EVENING. 
          SO THIS ITEM, THERE WE GO AGAIN. 
          TWO ITEMS ON THE AGENDA. 
          THE FIRST ONE YOU CALLED OUT MAYOR, IS THE MOVING OF BUDGETED MONEY TO PAY FOR THE DESIGN, WHICH IS FIVE A 11 ON YOUR AGENDA. 
          AND THEN THE DESIGN CONTRACT, WHICH IS ITEM, UH, FIVE B 10. 
          SO I'LL BRIEFLY GO OVER BOTH OF THOSE AND HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS ALONG THE WAY. 
          UM, I THOUGHT IT'D BE HELPFUL JUST TO HAVE A PROJECT OVERVIEW CAUSE THERE'S LOTS OF MOVING PARTS WITH THIS PROJECT. 
          SO ONCE AGAIN, THE THREE-WAY PARTNERSHIP BETWEEN THE CITY, THE METRO LIBRARY SYSTEM, AND THE Y M C A AND HOW THIS PARTNERSHIP WILL BE STRUCTURED IS THAT THE CITY WILL OWN THE LAND IN THE BUILDING, AND AGAIN, THE LAND, UM, THAT HAS BEEN IDENTIFIED. 
          AND THAT WILL BE CLOSED IN MID NOVEMBER. 
          WE'RE CURRENTLY GOING THROUGH A 45 DAY INSPECTION PERIOD, UH, ALONG WITH HENDERSON HILLS BAPTIST CHURCH. 
          SO HERE'S THE PROJECT SITE. 
          HERE'S I 35, HERE'S FIFTH 15TH STREET, AND THE CITY IS UNDER NEGOTIATION TO PURCHASE 10 ACRES OF LAND HERE. 
          THERE WILL BE A SHARED ENTRANCE WITH THE HENDERSON HILLS BAPTIST CHURCH, AND THEN ALSO SHARED PARKING AS WELL, RIGHT HERE. 
          SO IT WE'RE STILL EARLY IN DESIGN, BUT WHERE WE'RE AT RIGHT NOW IS THAT THE BUILDING IS PLANNED TO BE 70,000 SQUARE FEET. 
          UM, THE Y M C A PORTION OF THAT BUILDING WILL BE 50,000 SQUARE FEET. 
          THE LIBRARY PORTION WILL BE 15,000 SQUARE FEET. 
          AND THEN AS A PLACEHOLDER RIGHT NOW FOR ALL THREE ENTITIES, JUST TO THINK ABOUT JOINT COLLABORATIVE PROGRAMMING, WE'VE ALLOCATED 5,000 SQUARE FEET. 
          SO WHAT WE TALKED ABOUT AT THIS POINT IS THAT COULD BE SPACE FOR PUBLIC MEETINGS, AS WELL AS SOME JOINT PROGRAMMING, WHICH I'LL GET INTO HERE IN JUST A MINUTE. 
          BUT WE'LL ALSO, WE WILL BE FURTHER FLUSHED OUT THROUGH DESIGN. 
          SO THE CONSTRUCTION OF THE PROJECT, AGAIN, IT'S EARLY, BUT OUR BUDGET AT THIS POINT, UM, IS $32 MILLION. 
          AND HOW THAT WILL BE STRUCTURED, THE CITY WILL PAY THE FULL UPFRONT COST OF THAT 32 MILLION. 
          AND ON THE Y M C A PORTION, WHICH IS THAT 50,000 SQUARE FEET THAT I'M REFERENCING, THAT PORTION OF THE BUILDING'S GONNA BE ROUGHLY $22.8 MILLION. 
          AGAIN, THE CITY WILL PAY THE FULL COST AND WILL BE REIMBURSED, UH, FOR HALF OF THAT OVER 15 YEARS BY THE Y M C A. 
          SO A FIGURE THAT COMES TO 11.4 MILLION, THE LIBRARY PORTION OF THE BUILDING, THAT 15,000 SQUARE FEET IS A $6.8 MILLION. 
          AND AGAIN, THE CITY PAYS THE FULL COST OF THAT. 
          SO THE FULL COST TO THE CITY FOR THIS PROJECT AFTER REIMBURSEMENT WOULD BE A LITTLE OVER 20 AND A 
          [00:25:01]
HALF MILLION DOLLARS. 
          SO JUST A BROAD PROJECT OVERVIEW BEFORE WE GET INTO THE DESIGN. 
          UM, THIS DESIGN CONTRACT. 
          SO, UH, THIS IS GIVEN THE UNIQUENESS OF THIS PROJECT. 
          WHAT WE WANTED TO DO IS, UM, WE WANTED TO KICKSTART THE PROCESS BY HIRING A SPECIALIZED CONSULTANT TO HELP WITH SOME OF THE USES IN THE PROGRAMMING OF THAT. 
          SO WHO IS UNDER CONTRACT FOR THAT AS A GROUP OUTTA NEW YORK, NAMED GROW AND GROW HAS, UH, PERSONALLY PROGRAMMED OVER 400 Y M CS THROUGHOUT THE UNITED STATES. 
          SO IT'S GREAT TO HAVE THEM ON BOARD. 
          SO WE'VE STARTED THOSE CONVERSATIONS ALREADY SINCE JUNE ABOUT PROGRAMMING AND USES AND, AND, AND HOW, HOW THE SPACE IS GONNA BE LAID OUT. 
          SO WHAT'S ON YOUR AGENDA THIS EVENING IS FOR THE OVERALL DESIGN. 
          AND SO HOW WE WENT ABOUT THIS PROCESS IS WE ISSUED A REQUEST FOR QUALIFICATIONS. 
          WE WERE, UH, VERY FORTUNATE THAT 17 TEAMS SUBMITTED TO THAT VERY QUALIFIED. 
          AND SO IT WAS A VERY THOROUGH PROCESS TO PICK WHO WE THOUGHT WOULD BE THE BEST PARTNER. 
          AND SO, UM, ALL THREE ENTITIES HAD A SEAT AT THE TABLE FOR THAT. 
          AND SO IT'S RECOMMENDED BY ALL THREE ENTITIES TO MOVE FORWARD WITH GH TWO AS WELL AS THIS CITIZEN ADVISORY BOARD. 
          UM, THEY HEARD THIS AT THEIR MEETING IN OCTOBER. 
          UM, SO A LITTLE BIT ABOUT GH TWO. 
          THEY'RE BASED OUT OF OKLAHOMA CITY. 
          THEY'VE BEEN IN BUSINESS NEARLY 50 YEARS AND HAVE COMPLETED OVER 4,200 PROJECTS, INCLUDING SEVERAL Y M CS. 
          SO, UM, 12 MONTHS TO COMPLETE THE DESIGN. 
          AND THEN, UM, THE Y M C A WILL PAY THEIR PROPORTIONATE SHARE OF THE DESIGN CONTRACT, WHICH TIES BACK TO THE 50,000 SQUARE FEET OF THE BUILDING, WHICH WILL BE A LITTLE OVER $1.1 MILLION. 
          AND THEN THE NEXT, I, THE, UH, THE SECOND ITEM THAT I MENTIONED BEFORE IS THE MOVING OF BUDGETED MONEY TO PAY FOR THE DESIGN. 
          SO WHEN WE ORIGINALLY STARTED THIS PROJECT, UM, WE HAD PUT A PLACEHOLDER OF 2 MILLION FOR THE DESIGN. 
          AND AS WE'VE GOTTEN FURTHER WITH GROW AND REALIZED THE NEEDS OF ALL THREE ENTITIES THROUGHOUT, UM, WE, THAT THAT NUMBER HAS, HAS GROWN. 
          AND WE KNEW THAT IT WOULD, BUT UNTIL, UM, WE ACTUALLY GOT INTO NEGOTIATIONS WITH GHG, WE WEREN'T SURE EXACTLY WHAT THAT NUMBER WOULD BE. 
          UM, SO AGAIN, SOME OF THE REASONS WHY I EXCEEDED THE PLACEHOLDER NUMBER AND THIS PLACEHOLDER NUMBER. 
          SO AS YOU KNOW, AS WE GO THROUGH OUR BUDGET PROCESS, THE PLACEHOLDER NUMBER WAS SET AND LOCKED IN MAY. 
          AND SO WE DIDN'T WANT TO ALTER THAT UNTIL WE GOT INTO NEGOTIATIONS WITH GH TWO AND FIGURED OUT WHAT THAT NUMBER WOULD BE. 
          SO THAT'S WHY THE INCREASE IN MONEY, THE REASONS FOR THAT, AGAIN, THE SCOPE IS MORE CLEARLY DEFINED. 
          THIS WILL BE, UH, THERE WILL BE A POOL IN THIS FACILITY. 
          SO THERE WILL BE A SPECIALIZED CONSULTANT THAT'S, THAT'S PART OF THE GH TWO TEAM AND INCLUDING THAT AS MORE REVIEW TIME FOR THE MECHANICAL AND ENGINEERING AND THE PLUMBING PARTS OF THE PROJECT. 
          ALSO, WHAT WE DECIDED TO DO IS WE WANTED TO BRING ON A LIBRARY CONSULTANT AS PART OF THIS TEAM AS WELL. 
          AND SO MSR, WHO'S BASED OUTTA MINNEAPOLIS, IS A PART OF THE GH TWO TEAM AS WELL. 
          SO THAT ALSO INCREASED THE COST. 
          BUT AGAIN, WHEN WE'RE TALKING ABOUT, UM, A, A BUILDING OF THIS MAGNITUDE AND HOW AND THE IMPACT IT'S GONNA HAVE ON THE COMMUNITY, WANT TO MAKE SURE WE HAD A SUBJECT MATTER EXPERT FROM THE LIBRARY SIDE OF THIS. 
          AND SO WE THOUGHT, UM, THE COST INCREASE WAS JUSTIFIED TO BRING HIM ON BOARD. 
          AND THEN ALSO THE LAST ONE IS JUST, UM,  A AND E TEAMS ARE REALLY BUSY RIGHT NOW, AND GIVEN THAT, UM, COST OF THINGS ARE GOING UP AND GIVEN OUR TIMELINE ABOUT HOW WE WANT TO MAKE SURE WE MOVE THIS PROJECT FORWARD IN AN EXPEDIENT MANNER, THEY'RE ALLOCATING MORE RESOURCES TO THAT. 
          SO THE COST TO US THEN PROPORTIONALLY GOES UP AS WELL. 
          AND I WILL SAY, UM, THE NUMBER THAT YOU'RE SEEING THIS EVENING IS NOT THE FIRST NUMBER, UM, THAT GH TWO HAD PROPOSED TO US, AND WE APPRECIATE THE PARTNERSHIP. 
          THEY WERE WILLING TO RENEGOTIATE THEIR FEE, AND WE FEEL I, WE'VE GOT IT DOWN TO A NUMBER THAT'S ACCEPTABLE FOR, FOR ALL THREE PARTIES. 
          SO, UM, AND THEN ALSO, SO WHERE THIS MONEY WILL COME FROM, THERE'S A SEPARATE ITEM ON THE AGENDA THIS EVENING, UM, TO AWARD THE CONSTRUCTION CONTRACT FOR THE SERVICE BLAKE SOCCER COMPLEX. 
          I'LL GET INTO A LITTLE BIT MORE ABOUT WHY THAT NUMBER CAME IN BELOW THE ESTIMATE, WHICH IS A REALLY GOOD THING. 
          DOESN'T HAPPEN A LOT, BUT WE'RE REALLY GLAD IT DID. 
          SO WE HAD ESTIMATED AND BUDGETED $6.5 MILLION FOR THAT PROJECT, AND THE ITEM ON YOUR AGENDA TONIGHT IS FOR $5.175 MILLION TO AWARD THAT BID. 
          UM, JUST A LITTLE BIT ABOUT THE REASONS FOR THAT. 
          TRYING TO ESTIMATE A PROJECT COST, UM, DURING THE MIDDLE OF COVID WAS VERY, VERY DIFFICULT. 
          AND SO THE A AND E TEAM THAT WE HAD HIRED FOR THAT, UM, JUST DID THE BEST THAT THEY COULD AND, AND WANTED TO BE HIGH RATHER THAN LOWS. 
          SO WE MADE SURE WE HAD ENOUGH BUDGET MONEY. 
          SO THAT'S WHAT HAPPENED. 
          AND THEN ALSO THERE WAS SOME VALUE ENGINEERING THAT TOOK PLACE LATER IN THE PROJECT AFTER THE BUDGET HAD BEEN APPROVED BY YOU ALL IN JUNE. 
          SO REMOVING SOME STEEL, BUT KEEPING THE CHARACTER OF THE THREE BUILDINGS, UM, THAT'LL GO ALONG WITH THAT. 
          AND I'LL GET A LITTLE MORE INTO THAT WITH SERVICE BLAKE. 
          SO THAT'S WHERE THE MONEY'S BEING MOVED TO THE ADDITIONAL $1.2 MILLION THAT WE NEEDED TO AWARD THIS DESIGN CONTRACT THIS EVENING. 
          UM, SO NEXT STEPS ON THIS PROJECT IS TO CONTINUE THE COLLABORATIVE DESIGN. 
          [00:30:01]
SO REALLY WHEN I, WHAT I MEAN BY SAYING THAT IS HOW THE TWO ENTITIES PARTNER TO HAVE, UH, COMPLIMENTARY PROGRAMMING. 
          IT'S BEEN GREAT WORKING TOGETHER SO FAR AND WE'RE JUST GETTING INTO IT AND, UM, LOOK FORWARD TO THE COLLABORATION CONTINUING. 
          SO HAVING, UH, HAVING GROW AND THEN MSR ON BOARD WILL HELP MAKE SURE ALL PARTIES ARE LOOKING AHEAD, AWARE OF TR AWARE OF TRENDS AND NOT JUST OF CURRENT CLIENTELE. 
          UH, THE THINKING OF CURRENT CLIENT CLIENTELE. 
          SO KIND OF SOME OF THESE SPACES THAT'S BEEN TALKED ABOUT ARE MAKER SPACES, UM, ALLOCATING, UM, SPACES FOR 3D PRINTERS AS WELL, ART CLASSES AND CULINARY KITCHEN AND THINKING OF THINGS LIKE THIS WITH, UH, WILL HELP WITH THE COMMUNAL SPACE. 
          UM, ALSO AS A NEXT STEP IS TO FURTHER DEFINE THE LEASE AGREEMENTS. 
          SO AGAIN, I'VE MENTIONED THIS BEFORE, BUT THE LEASE AGREEMENTS WILL BE THE GOVERNING DOCUMENTS BETWEEN ALL THREE OF THESE ENTITIES. 
          AND THESE WILL BE EXECUTED PRIOR TO STARTING CONSTRUCTION. 
          SO SOME OF THE OBLIGATIONS THAT THE LIBRARY AND THE Y WILL BE TAKING ON ARE FOR THE LIBRARY, IT'S THE FFF AND E, SO THAT ONE TIME COST OF EQUIPPING THEIR SPACE, WHICH WE ESTIMATE TO BE A LITTLE UNDER A MILLION DOLLARS. 
          AND THEN TO OPERATE THEIR PORTION OF THE BUILDING EVERY YEAR IS $1.5 MILLION. 
          AND THEN FOR THE Y M C A, THEY ESTIMATE THE FFF AND E TO BE ABOUT $2 MILLION. 
          AND THEN THEIR YEARLY COST TO OPERATE IT WILL BE 3.8. 
          AND AGAIN, THIS IS, THIS WILL ALL BE SPELLED OUT IN THE LEASE AGREEMENTS, BUT JUST WANTED TO GIVE YOU KIND OF A HEADS UP OF WHAT WE'RE THINKING RIGHT NOW. 
          AND THEN FOR THE CITY, IT WILL BE A CITY BUILDING. 
          SO OUR OBLIGATION WILL BE TO MAINTAIN THE SHIP, THE OUTSIDE OF THE BUILDING. 
          SO I THINK H V A C AND ROOF, I KNOW RECENTLY, JUST RIGHT PRIOR TO COVID, UM, WE REPLACED THE H V A C AT THE CURRENT DOWNTOWN LIBRARY, UH, AS WELL AS THE ROOF. 
          AND SO, UM, THAT WAS A PROJECT THAT THOSE THINGS COME UP. 
          SO CONVERSATION'S ALREADY ONGOING, WE'LL BE FUR, WE'LL BE, UH, FULLY FLESHED OUT BEFORE THEY COME TO YOU ALL AND THOSE LEASE AGREEMENTS, UM, UH, BEFORE CONSTRUCTION IS STARTED. 
          SO THAT'S A WHOLE LOT ABOUT A REALLY EXCITING PROJECT, BUT THAT'S THE TWO ITEMS ON THE AGENDA TONIGHT. 
          SO HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS EARLIER ON. 
          ANDY, WE HAD TALKED ABOUT WHEN WE WERE IDENTIFYING THIS SITE, AND I'M SO GLAD WE HAVE IT. 
          I'VE SAID THAT A COUPLE OF TIMES, BUT IT'S A UNIQUE SITE MM-HMM. 
           TO HOW IT SITS UP ON THE HILL. 
          IT HAS TREES, IT JUST HOW IT SITS. 
          AND WE HAD TALKED EARLY ON ABOUT DESIGNING THE SITE. 
          YEP. 
          UM, IT, IS THAT STILL THE GOAL? YOU TALKED ABOUT THAT WITH THE DESIGN TEAM? YES, YES. 
          THROUGHOUT THE INTERVIEW PROCESS, WE MADE EVERYONE AWARE THAT THAT WAS THE GOAL. 
          AND SO, YOU KNOW, GHG KNOWS THAT. 
          SO WE'VE ALREADY STARTED THOSE CONVERSATIONS ABOUT HOW TO LAY IT OUT WITH DISTURBING, UH, AS THE LEAST AMOUNT OF PROPERTY AS WE CAN. 
          SO YOU BET. 
          WHICH ANOTHER REASON WHY IT'S GREAT TO HAVE THE SHARED PARKING. 
          YEAH. 
          SO THAT'S ROUGHLY 300 SPACES THAT WE WON'T HAVE TO BUILD ON THAT, ON THAT ACREAGE RIGHT THERE WHERE THE TREES ARE. 
          SO THANK YOU. 
          MM-HMM. 
           ALSO LIKE THE IDEA THAT WE ARE BRINGING ON SOME OTHER EXPERTS TO HELP US WITH DESIGN, WITH PROGRAMMING. 
          UH, I LOOK AT THIS AS ANOTHER CENTER OF LEARNING FOR OUR COMMUNITY AND AS, AS A STATE AND AS REGION AS WE GET VARIOUS, UM, WORKLOAD, MAYBE NOT COMING DIRECTLY TO EDMOND, BUT TO THE, THE AREA THAT THE, THE LIBRARY AND THE WHY AND CAN HELP EDUCATE PEOPLE AS, AS THINGS CHANGE AROUND HERE AND AS OUR NEEDS CHANGE. 
          AND SPEAKING OF THE CHANGES, I KNOW THAT YOU ALL AT YOUR LAST MEETING HAD APPROVED CHANGES TO CITYLINK, WHICH IS OUR FREE PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION. 
          AND SO ONE OF THE ROUTE CHANGES, THE ADDITIONAL ROUTES THAT WAS APPROVED WILL ACTUALLY GO BY THIS SITE. 
          MM-HMM. 
          . 
          SO IT'LL HIT THE I 35 CORRIDOR IN THAT, IN THAT AREA. 
          SO VERY GOOD. 
          THAT WILL BE OPERATIONAL BEFORE THE FACILITY IS OPEN, WHICH IS A GREAT THING. 
          SO, VERY GOOD. 
          ANY OTHER ADDITIONAL QUESTIONS, COMMENTS? THANK YOU VERY MUCH, SIR. 
          THEN

          [00:35:01]

          IT'S DISCOURAGING THAT WE'VE LOST SOME PARTNERS IN IT, BUT AT THE SAME TIME, I THINK THESE ARE THE, THESE THREE PARTNERS ARE COMMITTED. 
          SO I'M EXCITED TO MAKE IT HAPPEN. 
          RIGHT. 
          I'VE ALREADY, I'VE HAD DISCUSSION WITH ME, HOPE AND THE NEW MAYOR OF NORMAN TO INFORM THEM THAT WE WERE STILL ON BOARD WITH THIS.

          THIS WILL INCLUDE PERFORMING A SUPPLY AND DEMAND EVALUATION OF CURRENT HOUSING, UM, AND FUTURE HOUSING INVESTIGATION OF WHAT BARRIERS THAT MIGHT EXIST AND THAT SOCIAL 
          [00:40:01]
BARRIERS OR POLICY BARRIERS AND DEVELOPMENT OF AN ACTION BASED STRATEGY FOR IMPLEMENTATION. 
          AN RFQ WAS RELEASED IN JULY OF 2022. 
          UM, WE GOT SIX RESPONSES BACK. 
          WE INTERVIEWED THREE, UM, OF THOSE, UH, CONSULTANTS AND AN INTERNAL COMMITTEE. 
          COMMITTEE SELECTED DEVELOPMENT STRATEGIES AS THE WINNING CONSULTANT A LITTLE BIT OVER THE TIMELINE. 
          IT'S ESTIMATED TO TAKE AROUND EIGHT MONTHS TO COMPLETE AFTER KICKOFF. 
          UM, IT VARIOUS STAGES, WHICH I HAVE HIGHLIGHTED HERE ON THE SLIDE. 
          UM, THE ONE, UH, NUMBER TWO PROBABLY IS THE MOST INTERESTING, AND THAT'S WHERE THEY'RE GOING TO BE ANALYZING THAT. 
          THE DATA THAT THEY COLLECT. 
          UM, THEY WILL ALSO HAVE A STRATEGIC OR A, UH, A, UM, SORRY, A STRATEGIC COMMITTEE AS WELL AS, UM, WORKING GROUPS. 
          AND I'LL GO OVER THOSE IN JUST A LITTLE BIT OF WHAT THOSE WILL COM POST OF. 
          THEY'LL ALSO, UM, HAVE SOME POPUP EVENTS, UM, A SURVEY AND AN OPEN HOUSE, AND THEN OF COURSE, A WORKSHOP WHERE THEY'LL PRESENT THE DRAFT PROPOSAL TO YOU TOWARDS THE END OF THE PROJECT. 
          UM, THEY SUGGESTED HAVING A STEERING COMMITTEE COMPOSED OF SEVERAL STAKEHOLDERS IN, UM, THE COMMUNITY, WHICH IS EVERY, EVERYTHING FROM OUR MAJOR EMPLOYERS, NEIGHBORHOOD ASSOCIATION GROUPS, LOCAL DEVELOPERS. 
          UM, THE BOARD OF EDMUND REALTORS IS ALSO GONNA BE INVOLVED. 
          UM, AND THAT WOULD EITHER BE COMPOSED IN THE STEERING COMMITTEE GROUP OR IN THE FOCUS GROUPS. 
          UM, THEY WILL HAVE VIRTUAL AND IN, IN-PERSON ROUNDTABLE DISCUSSIONS. 
          UM, AND ENGAGEMENT IN A COMMUNICATION PLAN WILL BE DEVELOPED IN IDENTIFYING THOSE STAKEHOLDERS. 
          TOTAL CONTRACTS, $125,000 WE'RE PROPOSING TO USE ARPA FUNDS, WHICH IT IS IN AN ELIGIBLE EXPENSE. 
          IF YOU REMEMBER BACK ON YOUR WORKSHOP, WE SET ASIDE A MILLION DOLLARS FOR, UM, AFFORDABLE HOUSING. 
          THIS IS LIKE, THE FIRST COMPONENT TO THAT IS FINDING OUT WHAT OUR HOUSING STOCK IS, WHAT WE'RE MISSING, UM, WHAT OUR, UM, THE AGE OF OUR HOMES AS WELL AS APARTMENT COMPLEXES. 
          UM, I AM THE STAFF LEAD ON THIS PROJECT, BUT IT'LL ALSO BE AL UH, OTHER PLANNING STAFF MEMBERS INVOLVED. 
          UM, IN WORKING THROUGH THIS PROJECT AND AS WELL AS OUR EDMUND BOARD OF REALTORS PARTNERSHIP, THEY ARE ACTUALLY GONNA BE, UM, THEY'RE APPLYING FOR A GRANT THAT MIGHT BE COVERING SOME OF THE COST AS WELL. 
          SO THEY'LL BE A VITAL PARTNER THROUGH ALL OF THIS. 
          AND THAT'S REALLY ALL IT'S ABOUT. 
          ANY QUESTIONS? I WISH I WOULD'VE HAD THIS THREE YEARS AGO. 
          YEAH. 
          WHEN I CAME ON COUNCIL, I MEAN, THIS IS REALLY THIS, IF Y'ALL REMEMBER, THIS CAME OUT OF OUR STRATEGIC PLANNING SESSION LAST YEAR AND, AND WHEN WE'RE ASKED TO CONSIDER AN APPLICATION FOR, UH, DIFFERENT TYPES OF HOUSING THAT'S DIFFERENT THAN THE DIFFERENT BEING THAN THE SUBURBAN NEIGHBORHOOD HOME THAT WE'RE PRETTY MUCH USED TO IN EDMUND, WE HEAR FROM, YOU KNOW, FROM THE APPLICANT AND THEIR PROFESSIONALS WHAT'S MISSING. 
          AND WE HEAR FROM DIFFERENT BUILDERS, WE HEAR FROM, FROM YOUNG PEOPLE AROUND TOWN WHAT THEY, WHAT THEY NEED. 
          WE HEAR FROM BUSINESS OWNERS AT THE CHAMBER AND, AND, AND AROUND TOWN, WHAT, WHAT THEY FEEL LIKE THEY NEED ARE MISSING. 
          AND SO WE, WE HEAR ALL THIS AND, AND WE KIND OF PUT THAT TOGETHER AND THAT'S HOW WE MAKE DECISIONS WHEN, WHEN WE'RE CONSIDERING SOME OF THESE PROJECTS. 
          BUT IT WILL BE SO NICE TO HAVE AN ACTUAL STUDY WITH DATA AND FACTS TO BE ABLE TO USE, UM, IN THE FUTURE A AS PROJECTS ARE SUBMITTED. 
          AND ALSO TO, TO PUMP IT OUT TO THE, TO, TO THE CITIZENS OF EDMOND SO THEY CAN UNDERSTAND WHERE OUR GAPS ARE AND SOME NEEDS ARE. 
          BUT I, I REALLY, I COULDN'T BE MORE THRILLED ABOUT A STUDY LIKE THIS TO WHERE JUST COUNSEL BEING ABLE TO USE FACTUAL INFORMATION TO MAKE DECISIONS AND SHARE WITH THE PUBLIC IN THE FUTURE. 
          GOOD. 
          CO GOOD COMMENTS. 
          I AGREE. 
          ANYONE ELSE? AMEN. 
          ALL RIGHT. 
          THANK YOU VERY MUCH. 
          CHRISTIE, THEN I'M ITEM. 
          [8.  Approval of Change Order #8 for KickingBird Golf Clubhouse Project - Lippert Bros. Inc. $88,300.86]
YES SIR. 
          WE, WE ACTUALLY HAD A SHORT PRESENTATION ON NUMBER EIGHT, WHICH IS THE FRIES AND NICKELS FOR DEVELOPMENT CODE UPDATE. 
          IF YOU WANT TO BEFORE WE MOVE ON TO THE NEXT ONE, NUMBER SEVEN. 
          YEAH. 
          OKAY. 
          WE CAN DO THAT. 
          THAT, I MEAN, IF YOU DON'T WANT TO HEAR FROM ME, . 
          NO. 
          DO I DO I DO. 
          I KNOW THERE'S INTERESTING PARTS OF HERE. 
          SO DON'T WANNA, IT WAS, WE ARE EMBARKING UPON OUR, UH, FIRST MAJOR OVERHAUL TO OUR DEVELOPMENT CODE SINCE 2007. 
          UM, THIS IS A REWRITE OF ORDINANCES RELATED TO THE DEVELOPMENT PROCESS, WHICH MEANS TITLE 21, WHICH IS OUR SUBDIVISION REGULATIONS TITLE 22, WHICH IS ZONING, AND THEN TITLE 23, WHICH IS, UH, STORMWATER AND DRAINAGE. 
          THE GOAL HERE IS TO ALIGN THE ORDINANCES AND REGULATIONS WITH THE COMPREHENSIVE 
          [00:45:01]
PLAN SO THAT WE CAN THEN BEGIN TO IMPLEMENT THE VISION THAT WAS INCLUDED IN THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN, WHICH AS YOU REMEMBER NOW, INCORPORATES EAST EDMOND 2050 PLAN AS WELL. 
          UM, WE RELEASED A RFQ IN MAY OF THIS YEAR. 
          WE HAD FOUR RESPONSES. 
          UH, AN INTERNAL COMMITTEE OF, UH, DEPARTMENTS THAT WERE IMPACT WILL BE IMPACTED BY THOSE CODES SELECTED FREE AND NICKELS TO MOVE FORWARD WITH. 
          UH, HERE'S A TIMELINE. 
          IT'S A TWO YEAR PROCESS. 
          UH, AND IT'S BASICALLY BROKEN UP INTO FOUR PHASES. 
          UH, THE FIRST PHASE IS WHAT WE CALL THE DIAGNOSTICS, AND THAT'S WHERE THEY DO A LOT OF, UH, GATHER DATA GATHERING TO SEE WHERE OUR CODE AND OUR PLAN ARE MISALIGNED. 
          AND FROM THAT THEY WILL THEN START, UH, DRAFTING THE CODE. 
          I WOULD NOTE THAT WE WORKED WITH OUR HOUSING ASSESSMENT, UH, CONSULTANT TO CONDENSE THEIR TIMELINE SO THAT IT COULD FIT NEATLY INTO THIS ONE. 
          SO WE CAN INCORPORATE THINGS FROM THAT, UH, STUDY INTO THIS. 
          UH, AFTER THE CODE IS DRAFTED, UH, WE DO SOME MAPPING AND, UH, ADOPTION, OH, GO BACK. 
          ONE GETTING TOO FAST FOR ME. 
          UH, ONE THING THAT'S HIGHLIGHTED IN THAT IN THE RED RIGHT THERE. 
          I KNOW YOU CAN READ THAT. 
          NO, THAT IS THE STOP GAP MEASURES THAT WE ALLUDED TO IN THE EAST EDMOND STUDY TO HELP KIND OF PROTECT THE AREAS OUT THERE THAT WE WANT TO PROTECT. 
          SO THAT IS INCLUDED IN THE FIRST PHASE OF THIS. 
          SO WITHIN THE FIRST FEW MONTHS. 
          THANK YOU FOR DOING THAT CUZ THAT WAS MY BIGGEST CONCERN IS LIKE THE HOUSING STUDY. 
          I WISH THIS WOULD'VE BEGUN THREE YEARS AGO. 
          AND SO TWO YEARS FROM NOW, WE WILL HAVE MISSED A LOT OF OPPORTUNITIES ON LAND THAT ARE DEVELOPED. 
          YEAH. 
          AND THESE ARE MEANT TO BE QUICK THINGS THAT WE COULD, UH, ADOPT YEAH. 
          RELATIVELY QUICKLY WITH THIS COUNCIL AND HELP PROTECT AND SET, SET OURSELVES UP FOR SUCCESS. 
          PERFECT. 
          IN THIS ONE. 
          UM, ALRIGHT, NEXT SLIDE. 
          UH, YEAH, AS WE WORK THROUGH THE PROCESS, THERE'LL BE AN ADVISOR COMMITTEE AND A STAFF WORK GROUP MADE UP OF, UH, MEMBERS OF THE SITE PLAN REVIEW TEAM. 
          UH, THERE WILL ALSO BE A LOT OF FOCUS GROUPS INCLUDING CITY COUNCIL PLANNING COMMISSION, UH, THE URBAN BOARD BOARD OF ADJUSTMENT, UH, THE DIRT COMMITTEE. 
          AND THEN WE WILL MEET WITH USER GROUPS, WHICH ARE, UH, DEVELOPERS, THE CONSULTING ENGINEERS, UH, COMMERCIAL VENDORS, SUCH LIKE THAT. 
          THERE WILL ALSO BE OPPORTUNITIES FOR PUBLIC INPUT THROUGHOUT THE PROCESS, INCLUDING OPEN HOUSES AND SURVEYS. 
          THERE'LL BE A WEBSITE WHICH IS ROUTINELY UPDATED WITH INFORMATION THERE. 
          UH, LET'S SEE, A TOTAL CONTRACT IS $488,951.

          SO. 
          WELL, EVERY PROJECT THAT COMES OUT OF YOUR OFFICE, IT SEEMS TO STAY ON TIME. 
          AND SO I, I TRUST YOU GUYS, BUT I AM, I'LL, I'LL MIMIC THE, THE COMMENTS ON SOME THINGS IN BETWEEN THERE, THERE ARE SOME THINGS THAT I DON'T THINK CAN WAIT TWO YEARS AND YOU POINTED THAT OUT. 
          AND THAT'S, UM, SOME IMPORTANT PIECES OF LAND AND, AND ZONING ITEMS IN EAST EDMOND. 
          THEN ALSO, UH, IN THE DOWNTOWN AREA MM-HMM. 
          , UM, IN SOME REDEVELOPMENT AREAS THAT, THAT OUR CODE IS, IS SOMEWHAT OF A HINDRANCE RIGHT NOW. 
          AND SO, UH, TALKING ABOUT OVERLAY DISTRICTS OR DISTRICTS, UM, I'D LOVE TO, I THINK WE'RE MORE URGENT THAN THAT THAN TWO YEARS. 
          AND I THINK, I THINK YOU UNDERSTAND THAT AS WELL. 
          WE'RE GONNA KEEP, CONTINUE TO WORK ON THOSE THINGS. 
          WE HAVE SOME CLEANUP LANGUAGE FOR THE DOWNTOWN AREA TO HELP. 
          I MEAN, THINGS WE'VE KNOWN ABOUT FOR A WHILE AND THOSE HOUSING OVERLAYS AND THEN NEIGHBORHOODS SURROUNDING THAT. 
          WE'RE NOT GONNA WAIT ON THE CODE UPDATE FOR THOSE. 
          WE'LL INCORPORATE THOSE IN AT, YOU KNOW, AT SOME POINT. 
          BUT WE'RE GONNA ADOPT THEM, HOPEFULLY GET THOSE ADOPTED BEFORE THEN. 
          THANK YOU.

          [11.  Acceptance of Bid and Approval of Contract and Resolution No._______ Appointing Purchasing Agent for the Service Blake Soccer Complex - Phase 1 Project for Engineering/Parks Department; $5,170,000.00]
AND THEN THE ACCEPTANCE OF THE BID AND APPROVAL OF CONTRACT AND RESOLUTION NUMBER 26 22, 26 DASH 22 APPOINTING PURCHASING AGENTS FOR THE SERVICE. 
          BLAKE SOCCER COMPLEX PHASE ONE PROJECT FOR ENGINEERING PARTS DEPARTMENT FOR 5,000,001 $70,000. 
          [00:50:01]
YES. 
          HELLO, IT'S ME AGAIN. 
          GOOD EVENING. 
          SO , UM, SO AGAIN, ITEM FIVE B 11. 
          SO THE SERVICE, BLAKE SOCCER COMPLEX IMPROVEMENTS. 
          SO, UM, SO JUST, I, I THOUGHT IT'D BE HELPFUL JUST TO HAVE A LITTLE BACKGROUND ON THE COMPLEX. 
          SO, UM, OF COURSE IT'S LOCATED ON DANFORTH, JUST WEST OF KE. 
          IT'S BUILT IN 1981. 
          HOW THE CURRENT, UH, PARTNERSHIP WORKS IS THE CITY OWNS THE FACILITY AND IT'S OPERATED BY THE EDMONT SOCCER CLUB. 
          THERE'S 16 FULL SIZE FIELDS, 10 HAVE LIGHTING. 
          THE LAST MAJOR CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT THAT WAS, UM, TAKING PLACE ON THE FACILITY WAS IN 2012, SO ABOUT 10 YEARS AGO. 
          AND THAT ADDED CONCESSION STAND ON THE EAST SIDE AND THREE ADDITIONAL FIELDS AND JUST WANT TO GIVE SOME DATA ABOUT HOW BUSY THE FACILITY IS AS WELL. 
          SO, UM, AS FAR AS LEAGUE PLAY, THE LA FOR A FIVE YEAR AVERAGE IN THE SPRING, IT'S JUST A LITTLE UNDER 2000 PARTICIPANTS. 
          AND THEN IN THE FALL IT'S 1750. 
          AND THEN EVERY YEAR THEY HOST THREE LARGE TOURNAMENTS THAT AVERAGE 210 TEAMS EACH TOURNAMENT. 
          SO, UH, BETWEEN LEAGUE PLAY ACADEMY PRACTICES AND TOURNAMENTS, LIKE I SAID, IT'S A, IT'S A BUSY PLACE. 
          UM, WHAT'S IN FRONT OF YOU THIS EVENING? UM, THE PARTS, UM, THAT ARE GONNA BE IN THIS CONSTRUCTION PROJECT. 
          SO THE, THERE'S SEVERAL NEEDS IN THE FACILITY AND I'LL TALK MORE ABOUT A PHASING THAT WILL, THAT, UM, WAS, IS PROPOSED FOR THIS FACILITY THEN. 
          BUT FIRST WE'LL FOCUS ON WHAT THIS PROJECT IS RIGHT NOW. 
          SO, UM, THE CITY AND THE OPERATOR DECIDED TO FOCUS ON INFRASTRUCTURE IMPROVEMENTS FIRST. 
          AND SO WHAT THOSE WILL BE, I'LL HAVE SOME PICTURES IN A MINUTE, BUT IT'LL BE DEMO AND RE REBUILD THE TWO CONCESSION AND RESTROOM COMPLEXES ON THE WEST SIDE OF THE FACILITY. 
          DEMO AND REBUILDING THE MAINTENANCE BUILDING, UM, AS WELL AS BEAUTIFYING THE ENTRANCES AND ADDING A DROP-OFF LANE TO IMPROVE TRAFFIC ON THE WEST SIDE OF THE FACILITY. 
          UM, COST AND TIMELINE. 
          SO, UH, THE AWARD IS FOR $5.17 MILLION TO SHILOH CONSTRUCTION. 
          SO CITY STAFF AS WELL AS THE DESIGN ENGINEERS DETERMINE THIS IS THE LOWEST AND BEST BID. 
          UM, AND THE BUDGET ESTIMATE WAS 6.5 MILLION. 
          AND AGAIN, I SPOKE ABOUT THIS EARLIER WITH THE MOVING OF MONEY FROM THIS ACCOUNT TO UH, HELP PAY FOR THE DESIGN OF THE LIBRARY. 
          AND Y M C A. 
          THE REASONS FOR THE DIFFERENCE WAS THE PROJECT ESTIMATING AS I TALKED ABOUT DIFFICULT, UH, IN THE CURRENT CLIMATE. 
          AND THEN VALUE ENGINEERING THAT TOOK PLACE IN BE IN BETWEEN THE TIME THE BUDGET WAS SET AT 6.5 AND ADOPTED BY YOU ALL. 
          AND THEN BEFORE WE GOT TO 100% CONSTRUCTION DOCUMENT. 
          SO SOME STEEL WAS REMOVED AND WE ARE ABLE TO KEEP THE CHARACTER OF THE THREE BUILDINGS. 
          UM, AND THE TIMELINE FOR THIS PROJECT IS 240 CALENDAR DAYS. 
          THE NOTICE TO PROCEED WILL BE ISSUED ON NOVEMBER 21ST. 
          WE WANTED, UH, ONE OF THEIR BUSIEST TOURNAMENTS OF THE YEAR IS THE TURKEY SHOOTOUT. 
          THAT HAPPENS, IT'S GONNA BE THE FIRST WEEKEND IN NOVEMBER THIS YEAR. 
          AND SO WE WANTED TO MAKE SURE THAT THAT TOURNAMENT WAS DONE AND COMPLETED. 
          ALSO, WHILE ALLOWING, UM, CUZ WE'VE TALKED ABOUT CONTRACTORS ARE INCREDIBLY BUSY RIGHT NOW, SO WE THOUGHT IT WAS, UM, A TIMELINE OF GIVING THEM A MONTH AFTER AWARD WAS WAS THE TIME THAT WAS JUSTIFIABLE. 
          WE DIDN'T WANNA SQUEEZE IN TOO MUCH CUZ WE THOUGHT THE COST MIGHT INCREASE. 
          SO, UM, AND PLAY WILL CONTINUE DURING CONSTRUCTION. 
          SO, SO FUTURE IMPROVEMENTS. 
          SO TALK A LITTLE IN THE, IN THE FUTURE, UM, THERE'S LOTS OF NEEDS AT THE FACILITY AND SO IT WAS ALWAYS PLANNED THAT THIS WOULD BE A PHASED APPROACH. 
          AND SO IN FUTURE PHASES WHAT WE'RE LOOKING AT IS THE, THE CONDITION OF THE ACTUAL FIELD SIDEWALKS, PARKING AND SHADE. 
          BUT I PUT UP HERE. 
          BUT FIRST, UM, ONE THING THAT, UM, STAFF, IN FACT THE, THE RFQ SHOULD BE OUT TOMORROW. 
          WHAT WE'RE INTERESTED IN DOING IS A NEEDS ASSESSMENT OF SOME OF OUR FACILITIES AND THIS FACILITY WILL BE INCLUDED IN THAT. 
          SO THIS IS A PARTNERSHIP BETWEEN, UM, PARKS AND RECREATION AND THEN TO LOOK AT SPORTS TOURISM. 
          SO VISIT EDMOND. 
          SO WE'RE LOOKING TO HIRE A THIRD PARTY EXPERT TO UNDERSTAND THE FULL POTENTIAL OF OUR SPORTS FACILITIES AND THEN MODIFICATIONS NEEDED AND RECOMMENDATIONS ON OPERATIONAL MODELS. 
          SO THAT ASSESSMENT WILL LOOK AT BASEBALL AND SOFTBALL AT AC CAVENDER, AT MITCH PARK, AT EDMOND 66, ADULT SOFTBALL, UH, OUR APPLICABLE FACILITY AT KICKING BIRD AND THEN ALSO EDMONDS CENTER COURT. 
          SO JUST A LITTLE BIT MORE WHAT'S TO COME WITH THAT. 
          SO AGAIN, SHOULD BE RELEASED TOMORROW ON OUR WEBSITE. 
          AND THEN WE'LL WORK WITH A CONSULTANT TO, TO WORK THROUGH A NEEDS ASSESSMENT FOR THIS FACILITY AS WELL AS HIS OTHERS. 
          SO THIS IS MY, MY EIGHT YEAR OLD DAUGHTER WHEN THIS IS A TERRIBLE ATTEMPT TO TRY TO SHOW YOU WHERE THIS PROJECT WAS AND SHE COULD PROBABLY DO BETTER THAN ME, BUT I WAS TRYING TO JUST LET PEOPLE KNOW EXACTLY WHERE THIS IS. 
          SO HERE'S DANFORTH RIGHT HERE. 
          HERE IS KELLY JUST OVER HERE. 
          SO AS YOU ENTER THE FACILITY AND WHAT WE'LL CALL THE MAIN ENTRANCE, THEY'LL, UH, THERE'LL BE SOME, THERE'LL BE A A NEW SIGN RIGHT HERE. 
          AND THEN AS YOU MAKE YOUR WAY DOWN HERE TO THE SOUTH WHERE THESE IMPROVEMENTS ARE GONNA TAKE 
          [00:55:01]
PLACE. 
          OH YEAH. 
          THANK YOU FOR THAT. 
          MM-HMM. 
          , IT'S GONNA BE RIGHT THERE WHERE THE CURSOR IS, AND A LITTLE FURTHER SOUTH IS THE MAINTENANCE BUILDING, AND THEN TO THE FURTHEST SOUTH IS WHERE THE RESTROOM AND THE SECOND RESTROOM AND CONCESSION STAND IS. 
          SO HERE'S SOME VISUALS. 
          HERE'S THE PRETTY PICTURES. 
          SO THIS IS THE MAIN, UM, NORTH COMPLEX RIGHT HERE. 
          UM, AND THEN AS WELL AS THE DROP OFF AREA, THAT WILL BE A DRASTIC IMPROVEMENT FOR DROPPING LITTLE JOHNNY AND JANE OFF FOR THEIR, UH, PRACTICE OR TOURNAMENT. 
          UM, I GUESS YOU COULD DO IT JUST SOME OTHER VISUALS TOO THAT LOOK A LITTLE SMALL ON THE SCREEN, SO I'LL GO AHEAD AND SKIP 'EM, AND I'LL DO IT FOR THIS TOO, BUT JUST TRY TO GIVE YOU A VISUAL OF WHAT THE SOUTH BUILDING WILL LOOK LIKE AS WELL. 
          SO AGAIN, MUCH NEEDED IMPROVEMENTS TO A FACILITY THAT'S, THAT'S, THAT'S VERY BUSY AND THERE HASN'T BEEN A CAPITAL, A MAJOR CAPITAL EXPENSE IN THIS FACILITY IN, IN OVER 10 YEARS. 
          SO THAT IS MY PRESENTATION. 
          HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS MAYOR COUNCIL MAY HAVE. 
          WELL, I'M HAPPY THAT WE'RE DOING ANOTHER PROJECT AT THE COMPLEX. 
          UH, SOME OF THE COMMENTS I'VE HEARD FROM SOME OF THE TOURNAMENTS THAT ARE THERE THAT THEY, LIKE THE FACILITY NEED THE IMPROVEMENTS. 
          THEY LIKE THAT THEY WERE ABLE TO BRING MORE THAN THEIR, THEIR CHILDREN PLAYED ON MORE THAN ONE AGE GROUP TEAM, AND THEY, THEY WERE ABLE TO BE HOUSED OUT THERE YEAH. 
          INSTEAD OF BEING, UH, PLAYING HERE AND, AND THE CHILD IS PLAYING IN NORMAN. 
          YEAH. 
          AND SO THAT WAS GOOD. 
          MAYOR, IF YOU DON'T MIND, I, I SEE MR. SOBE HERE AND GOOD TO SEE HIM, THE GENERAL MANAGER FOR EDMONDS SOCCER CLUB AND, AND ALSO GOT A, A STATEMENT OR A MESSAGE SENT TO ME FROM BOARD MEMBER, UH, ON THEIR BOARD. 
          AND HE, IT'S REAL QUICK, HE ASKED ME IF I WOULD READ IT, IF THAT'S OKAY. 
          FROM DAN WEIN MEISTER ON BEHALF OF THE ESC BOARD MEMBERS AND THE EDMUND SOCCER COMMUNITY, WE WOULD LIKE TO EXTEND A HEARTFELT THANKS TO THE CITY OF EDMUND AND PARKS AND RECREATION DEPARTMENT FOR THE UPCOMING RENOVATIONS TO THE EDMUNDS SOCCER COMPLEX AND THEIR CONTINUED INVESTMENT IN YOUTH SOCCER FROM THE ESC BOARD. 
          AND THEN I ALSO WANNA SAY THEY HAVE BEEN, UM, WONDERFUL PARTNERS MOST RECENTLY, AND WE WERE LOOKING FOR SPACE FOR FRIDAY NIGHT LIGHTS TO GO, AND WE'RE GROWING THE BASEBALL AND SOFTBALL PROGRAM. 
          AND, UH, AND THEY'VE BEEN, UH, SO UNDERSTANDING AND HELPING OUT WITH THAT. 
          AND, AND SO WE, WE ALL KNOW, WE, WHEN WE TALKED WITH THEM, WE'RE, WE'RE BUSTING AT THE SEAMS AT WITH YOUTH SPORTS AND, AND ABOUT EVERYWHERE WE HAVE. 
          AND I KNOW THAT'S WHY THE, THE NEEDS ASSESSMENT IS COMING ALONG AND THE FACILITIES ASSESSMENT. 
          BUT I JUST WANNA GIVE CREDIT WHERE CREDITS DUE AND THANK THEM FOR WORKING WITH US AND, AND BEING PATIENT DURING THIS TIME AND JUST BEING COMMUNITY PARTNERS. 
          LET'S SECOND THAT.

          THANK YOU. 
          TEMPORARILY HELPING OUT, TEMPORARILY NEED TO SAY THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR THE COMMENTS.

          THANK YOU VERY MUCH. 
          NOW, UH, ITEM NUMBER SIX, CONSIDERATION OF ORDINANCES AND RESOLUTION.

          [A.  Consideration of Resolution No. _____ Authorizing Application for American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) Grant from the Oklahoma Water Resources Board]
FIRST ONE'S CONSIDERATION OF RESOLUTION NUMBER 27 DASH 22, 27 DASH 22 AUTHORIZING APPLICATION FOR AMERICAN RESCUE PLAN AG ARPA GRANT FROM THE OKLAHOMA WATER RESOURCES BOARD. 
          YES. 
          CAN I INVITE CASEY TO COME UP? THIS SEEMS KIND OF A SIMPLE ITEM, BUT IT REALLY IS A BIG DEAL, SO I WANTED TO GIVE CASE THE OPPORTUNITY TO, TO KIND OF ANNOUNCE THIS, WHAT THIS IS. 
          YEAH, ABSOLUTELY. 
          SO, UM, WHAT THIS ITEM IS TONIGHT IS, IS PROCEDURAL, BUT IT'S PROCEDURAL FOR A BIGGER PURPOSE. 
          UM, THIS, THIS ORDINANCE, OR I'M SORRY, THIS RESOLUTION ALLOWS US TO ACCEPT MONEY, UH, FROM THE OKLAHOMA WATER RESOURCES BOARD THAT HAS BEEN ALLOCATED FROM THE OKLAHOMA STATE LEGISLATURE, FROM THEIR APA FUNDING. 
          SO, AS EVERYONE KNOWS, THE STATE GOT ALL THESE BILLIONS OF DOLLARS AND THEY HAD TO TRY TO FIGURE OUT WHAT TO DO WITH IT. 
          AND THEY GOT 10 TIMES MORE, UH, APPLICATIONS AND THAN WHAT THEY COULD DO WITH THAT. 
          UH, WE'VE BEEN WORKING VERY HARD WITH OUR LOCAL LEGISLATORS, UM, AND THEN ALSO, UH, THE JOINT COMMITTEE FOR, UH, PANDEMIC RELIEF FUNDING. 
          AND, UM, VERY, VERY HAPPY TO SAY THAT, UH, THROUGH THAT PROCESS, THEY ALLOCATED $130 MILLION TO GO THROUGH THE OKLAHOMA WATER RESOURCES BOARD. 
          13 MILLION OF THAT WILL BE COMING TO 
          [01:00:01]
US FOR OUR WATER TREATMENT PLANT PROJECT. 
          SO, UM, WHILE IT, IT, IT IS A SMALL NUMBER COMPARED TO THE OVERALL PROJECT, UH, WE'RE VERY, VERY THANKFUL, UH, FOR ALL THE WORK THAT EVERYONE'S PUT INTO THIS. 
          AND, UH, WE'RE VERY THANKFUL TO GET THIS, THIS FUNDING. 
          UH, WE'RE CONTINUING TO LOOK FOR OTHER FUNDING SOURCES TO HELP DEFRAY THOSE COSTS FOR OUR RESIDENTS SO THAT WE CAN TRY NOT TO RAISE RATES ANY HIGHER THAN WE HAVE TO, TO PAY FOR THESE THINGS. 
          BUT, UM, AS, AS WE'RE LEARNING YEAR AFTER YEAR, WATER IS, WATER IS BECOMING THE, THE ISSUE IN ALL OF OUR COMMUNITIES ACROSS THE COUNTRY. 
          AND SO, UM, WE'RE THANKFUL THAT SOME IS FALLING FROM THE SKY TODAY, UM, AND IS GOING TO OUR LAKE. 
          AND THEN IN THE FUTURE, WE WILL BE ABLE TO USE MORE OF THAT WATER FROM THE LAKE INSTEAD OF SENDING IT DOWN, UH, DOWN THE CREEK TO SOMEWHERE ELSE. 
          SO THAT'S WHAT THIS IS TONIGHT. 
          UH, WE WILL BE THANKING OUR, OUR LEGISLATORS, UH, MORE FORMALLY AT A FUTURE DATE, BUT, UM, REALLY APPRECIATE ALL OF YOUR SUPPORT IN THIS, AND WE'RE GONNA CONTINUE TO DO EVERYTHING THAT WE CAN TO, TO TRY TO MORE FIND MORE DOLLARS TO, TO HELP FUND THESE PROJECTS. 
          HOPEFULLY THIS WILL HELP TO COVER SOME OF THE INCREASES THAT HAVE HAPPENED SINCE 2020 AB ABSOLUTELY, YES. 
          UH, THOSE, THOSE PROJECTS CAME IN SIGNIFICANTLY OVER BUDGET MM-HMM. 
          , AND, UM, I, I THINK, UH, I THINK THE LEGISLATURE SAW THAT, SAW THAT WE WERE DOING THINGS THE RIGHT WAY, WE'D APPROACH THESE PROJECTS THE RIGHT WAY. 
          UH, AND THERE'S STILL A GAP. 
          AND SO, UM, YOU'RE, YOU'RE RIGHT ON THE MONEY. 
          MM-HMM. 
          . 
          YEAH. 
          ANY QUESTIONS? NO QUESTIONS. 
          THANK YOU VERY MUCH, JASON. 
          MM-HMM. 
          , THANK YOU. 
          [B.  Approval of Resolution No._______ to program Phase IV of the Intelligent Transportation System on portions of 33rd, Bryant, Boulevard, and Danforth.]
AND THEN WE HAVE FOUR MORE AND WE'RE GONNA HAVE ONE PRESENTATION FOR ALL OF 'EM, SO I CAN GO JUST, I WOULD LIKE JUST TO GO THROUGH 'EM AND GET ALL THE RESOLUTION NUMBERS, IF THAT'S POSSIBLE, SIR. 
          YOU BET. 
          UH, SIX B IS APPROVAL RESOLUTION NUMBER 28 DASH 2228 DASH 22 TO PROGRAM PHASE FOUR OF THE IN INTELLECT  INTELLIGENT TRANSPORTATION SYSTEM ON PORTIONS OF 33RD BRYANT BOULEVARD IN DANFORTH. 
          UH, C IS APPROVAL AND RESOLUTION NUMBER 29 DASH 2229 DASH 22 TO PROGRAM AN INTERSECTION IMPROVEMENT PROJECT AT DANFORTH AND KEL. 
          NUMBER D IS APPROVAL RESOLUTION NUMBER 30 DASH 2230 DASH 22 TO PROGRAM THE DOWNTOWN PEDESTRIAN 88 BRIDGE CROSSING, UH, THE BN SF RAILROAD PROJECT AND E IS CONSIDERATION OF RESOLUTION NUMBER. 
          WE HAVE 4 31 DASH 22, 32 DASH 22, 33 DASH 22, AND 34 DASH 22. 
          RIGHT. 
          FOR TRANSPORTATION ALTERNATIVE PROGRAM CAP FUNDS FOR URBANIZED AREAS THAT HAVE BEEN MADE AVAILABLE THROUGH THE ASSOCIATION OF CENTRAL OKLAHOMA GOVERNMENTS, ACOG FOR THE TRANSPORTATION IMPROVEMENTS, WE'RE HAVING A MAYOR THAT I DON'T THINK WE HAVE A FORMAL PRESENTATION, BUT I DON'T KNOW IF, IF KEITH, YOU JUST, DO YOU KNOW A LITTLE BIT ABOUT EACH OF THESE AND KIND OF TELL THIS IS MORE OF A GRANT PROCESS REQUEST THROUGH ACOG AND YES, SIR. 
          I THINK THE MAGNITUDE IS IMPORTANT FOR US TO UNDERSTAND. 
          FOR US, I'LL BE COVERING SIX B, C, AND D, BUT, UH, RANDY'S TAKING THE, SO TO GIVE A LITTLE BACKGROUND, THESE RESOLUTIONS ARE NEEDED TO SEE FEDERAL FUNDING THROUGH THE ACOG THROUGH FOR THE SURFACE TRANSPORTATION BLOCK GRANT, URBANIZED AREA PROJECT. 
          MM-HMM. 
           AND, UH, ACOG FOR THE FISCAL YEAR 2025 HAS 21.6 MILLION, OF WHICH ONLY A SINGLE ENTITY CAN ONLY GET 50 56% OF THAT, WHICH IS THE 12 MILLION. 
          AND THE MOST FUNDING FOR ANY ONE PROJECT IS SEVEN AND A HALF MILLION. 
          SO NOW TO GO INTO THE LITTLE DETAILS ABOUT WHAT THE ACTUAL PROJECTS IS, ITEM SIX B IS FOR THE INTELLIGENT TRANSPORTATION SYSTEM, PHASE FOUR, AND IT IS GONNA REPLACE TRAFFIC CABINETS AND CONTROLLERS FOR 19 INTERSECTIONS AND SEVEN SCHOOL DISTRICTS. 
          IT GOES FROM ALONG 33RD FROM BROADWAY TO ABOUT I 35, AND THEN FROM, UM, BOULEVARD FROM 33RD STREET TO DANFORTH, AND THEN DANFORTH OVER TO FROM DANFORTH, FROM BRYANT TO BOULEVARD. 
          THE SINGLES WILL CONNECT TO THE TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT SYSTEM BY FIBER OPTIC OR WIRELESS NETWORKS. 
          THE ESTIMATED COST OF THIS, ITS PHASE FOUR, IS 13.1 MILLION, WHICH AS I SAID EARLIER, THE CAP FEDERAL FUNDS FOR IT BEING A MAXIMUM OF 7.5 MILLION. 
          SO THE LOCAL MATCH WILL BE 5.6 MILLION. 
          UH, WITH THIS PHASE OF, WITH THIS I T S PHASE FOUR, 86% OF ALL THE SINGLES IN EDMOND WILL BE CONNECTED TO THE TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT SYSTEM. 
          AND JUST TO GIVE YOU AN UPDATE ON THE PREVIOUS 
          [01:05:01]
THREE PHASES, PHASE ONE IS NOW COMPLETE. 
          PHASE ONE IS COMPLETE. 
          PHASE TWO IS SUBSTANTIALLY COMPLETE, AND PHASE THREE IS UNDER CONSTRUCTION AT THE MOMENT. 
          ITEM SIX C, DAN, FOURTH AND KELLY INTERSECTION. 
          THIS INTERSECTION'S BEEN THE NUMBER ONE IN INTERSECTION FOR ACCIDENTS FOR THE LAST FIVE CONSECUTIVE YEARS. 
          AND SO THIS PROJECT IS LOOKING TO ADD DUAL LEFT TURN LANES IN ALL DIRECTIONS AND THEN ADD A RIGHT TURN, SOUTHBOUND, WESTBOUND AND EASTBOUND. 
          AND THEN THERE ALSO, IT INCLUDES A NEW SINGLE HERE TO THE SOCCER FIELD LOCATION AND UH, HAWTHORNE LANE. 
          SO THAT'LL BE A NEW SINGLE THAT'LL BE ADDED AS A PART OF THIS PROJECT. 
          UH, THE ESTIMATED COST FOR THESE IMPROVEMENTS ARE 9 MILLION. 
          AND AGAIN, UH, WITH THE CAP FEDERAL FUNDS BEING 80% OF THE PROJECT, WE WOULD BE REQUESTING 7.2 MILLION, AND THEN THE LOCAL MATCH WOULD BE 1.8 MILLION. 
          HOWEVER, IF WE GET BOTH THE DANFORTH INTERSECTION AND THE, ITS PHASE FOUR, ONE PROJECT WOULD BE ELIGIBLE FOR UP TO 7.5 MILLION, BUT THE OTHER WOULD ONLY BE ELIGIBLE FOR 4.5 DUE TO THE 56% CAP, THE 12 MILLION. 
          AND BEFORE I MOVE ON TO DEED, DO Y'ALL HAVE ANY QUESTIONS YOU'D LIKE TO ASK ON B OR C? NO, THANK YOU. 
          OKAY. 
          UM, ITEM D IS FOR A DOWNTOWN ADA BRIDGE CROSSING OR UNDERPASS CROSSING AT THE RAILROAD. 
          DUE TO THE TIMELINE THEY NEEDED TO GET, WE NEED TO GET THIS APPLICATION IN SEEKING FUNDS THROUGH ACOG FOR THE TRANSPORTATION ALTERNATIVE PROGRAM FOR 1.5 MILLION. 
          THE CITY'S CONSULTANT WILL BE MAKING A PRESENTATION TO THE CITY COUNCIL IN THE FUTURE TO GET A FINAL DECISION IN THE NEAR FUTURE. 
          REGARDING THE CROSSING, BEING AN OVERPASS OR UNDERPASS AND THE LOCATION, THERE HASN'T BEEN A LOCATION PICKED. 
          IT'LL BE SOMEWHERE ALONG HERE. 
          IT'LL BE, UH, OVERPASS OR UNDERPASS BASED UPON YOUR DECISION, WHICH WILL BE PRESENTED TO Y'ALL IN THE FUTURE. 
          UH, FOR THIS, THE MAXIMUM FUNDING THAT CAN BE GET FROM FEDERAL FUNDS IS 1.5 MILLION. 
          THE COST WILL BE, DEPENDING ON WHETHER WE CHOOSE TO DO AN OVERPASS OR UNDERPASS, THE ESTIMATED COST OF AN OVERPASS IS 5.9 MILLION. 
          AND FOR THE UNDERPASS, THE ESTIMATED COST IS 7.2 MILLION. 
          WELL, EXPENSIVE HOLE, THE GROUND,  SOME COST. 
          RIGHT. 
          DO LOT OF MONEY. 
          IS THAT COVERED IN THE TIFF? ARE THESE IMPROVEMENT? THE, THE DOWNTOWN? IT'S WITHIN THE TIP DISTRICT. 
          MM-HMM. 
          , CORRECT? YEAH. 
          MM-HMM. 
          , YEAH. 
          YEAH. 
          OKAY. 
          IT COULD BE IDENTIFIED AS A, IF YOU'RE ASKING, COULD THAT BE IDENTIFIED AS A PUBLIC IMPROVEMENT PROJECT? MM-HMM. 
          , I FEEL LIKE THE TIFF IS LIKE A CREDIT CARD. 
          IT'S WHAT IT'S FOR. 
          VERY GOOD. 
          THANK YOU. 
          THEN THE OTHER TAP PROJECTS, UM, THERE'S FOUR THAT ARE ALSO BEING, AS KEITH SAID, IT'S A $1.5 MILLION CAP. 
          UH, THERE ARE FOUR TRAILS PROJECTS. 
          UH, ONE IS THE COVE SIDE PATH CONNECTOR, IT'S RIGHT THERE AT COVE. 
          AND THEN WHAT I CONSIDER BOULEVARD GOING NORTH, UH, IT LOOKS LIKE A REALLY SIMPLE CONNECTION, BUT THERE'S A BIG GRADE CHANGE THERE WITH A LOT OF UTILITIES. 
          UH, IT'S ESTIMATED TO BE A $350,000 PROJECT, UH, 280,000 OF WHICH WE'VE APPLIED FOR IN THE GRANTS. 
          UH, THE DOWNTOWN KELLY, UH, MULTI-USE TRAIL, WHICH CONNECTS FROM THE, BASICALLY THE RETENTION POND OVER TO KELLY. 
          UH, THAT WOULD BE FOR DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION. 
          IT'S A ONE AND A HALF MILLION DOLLAR PROJECT, AND WE HAVE APPLIED FOR $1 MILLION IN GRANT FUNDING FOR THAT. 
          AND THEN THERE'S THE VISTA LANE HAYFORD PARK, UH, MULTI-USE TRAIL, UH, THAT WOULD CONNECT NORTH FROM HAYFORD PARK ALMOST TO THE NEW, UH, ART PARK OR COMMON GROUNDS. 
          UH, THAT'S ESTIMATED A $400,000 PROJECT, UH, 320,000 OF WHICH, UH, WE'VE APPLIED FOR, FOR GRANT FUNDING. 
          AND THEN THE LAST IS THE CHIMNEY HILL MULTI-USE TRAIL, WHICH IS A VITAL, UH, PIECE OF OUR OVERALL TRAIL NETWORK. 
          AND WE NOW HAVE THAT CREEK BIN UNDER DESIGN AND THEN TRAILS OVER THERE ALREADY IN ON HAYFORD PARK AND POINTS WEST. 
          UH, THIS WOULD BE FOR THE DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION OF $1.8 MILLION TOTAL WITH THE GRANT BEING 1 MILLION. 
          UH, KEEP IN MIND WE ARE STILL SPENDING MONEY THAT WE, UH, GOT IN 2017. 
          SO WE ARE GETTING IN LINE WITH EACH PROJECTS, REALIZING THAT IT WILL BE FOUR OR FIVE YEARS BEFORE WE ACTUALLY GET TO CONSTRUCTION ON THEM. 
          RANDY, WAS THERE ANY THOUGHT GIVEN TO 
          [01:10:01]
GOING FROM THE FIT PARK DOWNTOWN? THERE'S NO CONNECTION THE OTHER WAY EITHER. 
          WELL, ONCE YOU GET TO THE PARK, UH, I MEAN THERE ARE ON STREET WAYS THERE. 
          IT IS FAIRLY SAFE, UH, IN THE FUTURE. 
          DO THAT. 
          WE'LL GET YOU A BETTER CONNECTION IN THE FUTURE. 
          I MEAN, RIGHT NOW IT'S FAIRLY SAFE FOR PEDESTRIANS. 
          I, IT'S LIKE ALL OUR DOWNTOWN STREETS. 
          ONCE WE GET OUR RAILROAD, $7 MILLION HOLE IN THE GROUND, THEN IT'LL BE REAL SAFE. 
          THAT WOULD IF THEY PUT THAT AT HER. 
          YEAH, THAT'S THE KEY THERE. 
          IT MIGHT DRIVE PART OF THE DECISION. 
          YEAH. 
          DOES JIMMY HILL KNOW WE'RE DOING THIS? SO WE WERE APPROACHED BY THE CHINEY HOLE HOMEOWNERS ASSOCIATION TO BEGIN DISCUSSIONS. 
          UH, WE, WE DON'T HAVE A FINAL DECISION FROM THEM AT ALL, BUT WE WANTED TO GET IN LINE. 
          SO WE WEREN'T WAITING 10 YEARS FOR THE FUNDING CYCLE, I THINK IS GREAT NEWS. 
          IF THEY DECIDE SOMETHING DIFFERENT, WE CAN ALWAYS NOT ACCEPT THE FUNDING. 
          SURE. 
          YEAH. 
          I CAN'T IMAGINE THEY WOULD. 
          I WOULD THINK THEY NEED THIS. 
          THIS HAS BEEN WANTED FOR A LONG TIME. 
          . 
          THAT'S TRUE. 
          GLAD IT'S HERE. 
          SO TRUE. 
          SO TRUE. 
          ALSO ADDING TO OUR INCREASED MOBILITY NEEDS. 
          ANY OTHER QUESTIONS, COMMENTS ON THESE ITEMS? THANK YOU FOR THE PRESENTATIONS. 
          OKAY. 
          I, UH, COUNSEL, WE HAVE FIVE, UM, RESOLUTIONS. 
          WELL MORE THAN FIVE, BUT WE HAVE FIVE ITEMS HERE TO CONSIDER.

          [7. Update and consideration of direction to city staff regarding the property located at 1300 E. Ayers (OYO Hotel), declared a public nuisance on January 24, 2022.]
ITEM NUMBER SEVEN IS UPDATING CONSIDERATION OF DIRECTION TO STAFF REGARDING THE PROPERTY LOCATED 1300 EAST HEIRS OYO HOTEL DECLARED A PUBLIC NUISANCE ON JANUARY 24TH, 2022. 
          MAYOR COUNSEL, SINCE OUR LAST MEETING, UH, NOT BEEN A LOT OF ACTIVITY GOING ON AT THE, AT THE PROPERTY, UH, WE DID HAVE A WALKTHROUGH WITH, UH, THE PROPERTY OWNER. 
          AND SO THERE WAS OUR CODE ENFORCEMENT STAFF TO KIND OF GO OVER SOME THINGS THAT THEY HAD BEEN IDENTIFIED IN THE PREVIOUS INSPECTION. 
          UH, NO OTHER REAL ISSUES HAVE OCCURRED AT ALL. 
          UH, VISITING WITH, UH, MR. MCKINNIS, COUNCIL FOR THE OWNER, WE THINK OUR NEXT NEXT BEST STEP IS TO, UH, UH, SCHEDULE A MEETING WITH ALL OUR STAFF BUILDING DEPARTMENT, UM, UH, FIRE DEPARTMENT, POLICE DEPARTMENT, UH, CODE ENFORCEMENT, AND SIT DOWN IN A ROOM AND MAKE SURE WE'RE ALL ON THE SAME PAGE WITH REGARD TO THEIR PLANS FROM THEIR FACILITY AND, AND WHAT WE THINK WILL BE NEEDED WITH REGARD TO PERMITS AND, UH, THAT TYPE OF THING. 
          SO WE'RE GONNA WORK ON SCHEDULING THAT HERE REAL SOON. 
          AND, UH, SO THAT WE'RE ALL ON THE SAME PAGE. 
          AND I THINK THAT WE WILL BE APPRECIATE EVERYONE'S COOPERATION, NOT ON PART OF THE STAFF, BUT ALSO ON PART OF THE PROPERTY WITH REGARD TO THIS PROPERTY RECENTLY. 
          SO, UH, AT THIS POINT, UH, I'D ASK THE COUNCIL TO, UH, UNLESS MR. MCKINNEY SAID SOMETHING ELSE, UH, ASK THE COUNCIL TO CONTINUE THIS ITEM TO OUR FIRST MEETING IN JANUARY, UH, JANUARY 9TH. 
          THAT'LL GIVE SOME TIME TO WORK THROUGH, UH, VARIOUS STEPS. 
          AND THEN I CAN GIVE YOU A REPORT BACK. 
          HOPEFULLY OUR GOAL WOULD BE TO, UH, REMOVE THIS FROM YOUR AGENDA, SO THAT WILL GET US THROUGH THE NEXT COUPLE MONTHS. 
          IF WE DON'T THINK, IF SOMETHING COMES UP, WE'LL BRING IT BACK, BUT I DON'T FORESEE SOMETHING LIKE THAT COMING UP. 
          SO APPLICANT, DID YOU HAVE, TODD, DID YOU HAVE ANYTHING YOU WANNA SAY ON THAT? WELL, I'LL JUST MENTION A COUPLE THINGS. 
          TODD MCKENNA, UH, I DON'T WANT ANYBODY TO THINK THAT WE'RE NOT GONNA DO ANYTHING BETWEEN NOW AND JANUARY, SO I DON'T THINK MR. MURDOCH IMPLIED THAT AT ALL. 
          SO WE'LL CONTINUE TO WORK ON THE LIFE, HEALTH, SAFETY ISSUES THAT THE CITY STAFF HAVE IDENTIFIED, SO THAT IT'S MY EXPECTATION WHEN WE COME BACK HERE AGAIN, WHEN WE COME BACK HERE FOR MORE THAN JUST GETTING OFF THE NUISANCE LIST, WE'LL BE MOVING FORWARD FOR OPERATION ISSUES. 
          SO, JUST FYI, WE WEREN'T TRYING TO KICK YOU DOWN THE ROAD FOR FOUR MONTHS, SO WE HAVE IT ANSWERING QUESTIONS WITH RESPECT TO THAT. 
          I'VE GOT A LOT OF COMMENTS ABOUT WHAT WAS TALKED ABOUT EARLIER, BUT, UH, I'M GONNA HOLD MY TONGUE ON THAT. 
          SO, WELL, I'LL BRING UP THAT THIS IS DURING THIS PROCESS WE'VE TALKED ABOUT, WE TALKED ABOUT THE HOUSING NEEDS ASSESSMENT, AND THIS IS, THIS IS A BUILDING THAT'S, THAT'S IMPORTANT TO EDMUND FOR, FOR A LOT OF HOUSING NEEDS. 
          AND SO WE'RE, UH, I THINK, I THINK I CAN SAY WE'RE, WE'RE EXCITED TO GET THIS FURTHER DOWN THE ROAD AND, AND MAKE IT AVAILABLE FOR, FOR HOUSING. 
          NO, I APPRECIATE THAT. 
          I, I WOULD WANNA SAY ONE THING. 
          UH, THIS TYPE OF HOUSING'S NOT SIMPLE AND IT DOESN'T FIT EVERY BOX THAT OUR CODE OR OUR STAFF HAS. 
          IT'S DIFFERENT THAN BUILDING A DEVELOPMENT IN EAST EDMOND. 
          IT'S DIFFERENT THAN GOING EVEN ANYWHERE AND DOING A GROUND UP PROJECT. 
          IT'S, UH, NOT ALWAYS CLEAN. 
          IT'S NOT ALWAYS SIMPLE. 
          IT'S NOT ALWAYS EASY. 
          UH, AND SO I KNOW OUR STAFF IS SYMPATHETIC TO THAT BECAUSE OUR STAFF IS SOME OF THE BEST AROUND. 
          BUT, UH, I DON'T HAVE ANY DELUSIONS THAT WE'RE GONNA COME IN HERE AND WE'RE BUILDING SOMETHING FROM THE GROUND UP. 
          UH, AND NOR DO I THINK WE GET A PASS ON COMPLIANCE, BUT IT'S NOT EASY. 
          AND UH, AND I DON'T THINK ANYBODY EXPECTS THAT. 
          UH, BUT I'D LIKE TO JUST POINT 
          [01:15:01]
THAT OUT AS WE MOVE FORWARD IN THIS PROCESS. 
          EVERYBODY KNOWS THIS TYPE OF HOUSING IS NEEDED. 
          I HAD CONVERSATIONS WEEKLY ABOUT THAT. 
          UH, AND PEOPLE ASK ABOUT THIS PROJECT OR EVEN OTHER ONES AROUND TOWN. 
          AND THE IDEA OF AFFORDABLE OR WORKFORCE HOUSING ON GROUND UP DEVELOPMENT WITH THE COST OF LAND AND CONSTRUCTION ADMIN IS ALMOST A MISNOMER. 
          SO WHEN WE HAVE AN ASSET LIKE THIS, IT CAN BE USED. 
          IT, IT DOES TAKE A LOT OF EFFORT ON EVERYBODY'S PART TO BRING THAT TO FRUITION. 
          SO WITH THAT, THAT'S OUR INTENTION AND WE LOOK FORWARD TO WORKING WITH THE STAFF. 
          WE'RE GOOD. 
          THANK YOU. 
          THANK YOU. 
          GLAD YOU'RE STILL ON THE PROJECT. 
          OKAY.
