Hello, everyone. Greetings. Welcome. Hello and welcome and greetings. Welcome to the meeting of the Lexington Fayette Urban County Council. And for those of you who haven't been with before, our docket or our agenda starts with a roll call by our council clerk. Madam Clerk, please call the roll. Certainly. Mr. K? Here. Mr. Lane? Here. Ms. Lawless? Here. Ms. Mazzotti? Here. Mr. Myers? Here. Ms. Scotchfield? Here. Mr. Stennett? Yes, ma'am. Ms. Akers? Here. Mr. Beard? Present. Mr. Clark? Here. Mr. Ellinger? Here. Mr. Farmer?

And next on our agenda is the invocation, which tonight is being offered by the very Reverend Carol Wade, who is dean and rector of Christ Church Cathedral. here in Lexington. Thank you, Mayor Gray. Well, it's good to be among you this night. I bring you the greetings from the good people of Christ Church Cathedral who hail from some 15 different zip codes in this great county, and they send you their good wishes and their blessings and their thanks for the work that you're doing. So tonight I'd like to just begin with a few words from the prophet Isaiah and end with a blessing, if you will. So I want to remind us that the Hebrew prophet Isaiah wrote some beautiful poetry about healing the streets of the city, about creating a city where people are safe and where children can play and where people thrive. And God said that when we do that, that our light will shine and that we will be called repairers of the breach and that we will be people who will thrive abundantly. So let's take those words to our heart and offer this prayer. I'll offer this prayer tonight. O Holy One of blessing, we give you thanks for the good work of this council, for our city and our county, for all who live and thrive in this place, for all who struggle and yearn for a better life. We pray your blessing upon them. We ask this night that you would give wisdom and knowledge to your leaders, give them discernment and patience, give them courage in all their decisions, and bring us to that vision where our streets are vital and vibrant and safe and thriving. And we ask all of this in the name of the God of many names. Amen. Thank you so much, Dean Wade. All right. Before we get into a couple of recognitions and presentations, Council Member Jennifer Massadi asked me if we could recognize a constituent who is here tonight regarding an issue on the docket. So I'll ask Council Member Massadi for the floor. Thank you, Mary, and thank you, Council Members, for letting me go out of order. I would like to have Lynn Lawrence, who is the president of the Wellington Homeowners Association, come to the podium. Lynn would like to speak in reference to the Neighborhood Action Matching Grant Program. Thank you, and thank you for allowing me to speak tonight. I'm the current and very new president of the Wellington Homeowners Association. We have 323 homes in our area. We're on the corner of Wellington Way and Clay's Mill Road, so we're in a very busy area of this beautiful city. Our board is committed to our mission statement, which is as follows. The purpose and the intent of the Wellington Homeowners Association Board of Directors is to build community among the homeowners within the Wellington development, encourage equity growth within the development properties, support improvements to those properties through interpretation and enforcement of the restrictions of record and approval of modifications and improvements within those restrictions. Every decision which is made by our board is required to be aligned with our mission statement. We always ask the question, is what we are about to do in support of the mission statement of our community? And that answer must always be yes. We also believe if we have the expectation of our homeowners to maintain and improve upon the appearance of their homes, we as a board must take the first step and set the example for our homeowners. We must demonstrate the sincerity of our belief in our mission statement by maintaining and improving on the areas our HOA is responsible for. That is exactly the reason for our grant submission. Our grant application is intended to establish seven areas where people can gather together to enjoy the beautiful greenways or simply to stop and rest during a walk, enjoy a beverage, or simply sit and enjoy the beautiful view. We believe these improvements will enhance the sense of community in our neighborhood by bringing people together. We expect our residents to maintain the condition of their property. Our expectation should be demonstrated through our own actions by improving and enhancing the condition of our landscape islands, the rims of our destination basins, and the street trees on the common areas of our property, all of which are maintained with funds from our yearly dues. The enhancement of these areas is also part of our grant application. Most of these areas have not been enhanced since they were initially planted, which was 10 to 12 years ago. This matching grant will allow us to make these improvements simultaneously and will demonstrate to our homeowners our commitment to ongoing improvement of these areas. And we ask that you please give us this grant for our community. Thank you. Thank you, Ms. Lawrence. Appreciate you coming down. Thank you, Ms. Lawrence. Thank you. Council Member Sadi. All right. We have two under our, within our presentations section of our docket tonight, we have two proclamations, but before we get to the proclamations, We need, I'd like to recognize the William Wells Brown Community Center and Center Director Jill Wilson, who is here tonight. Jill will be joining us for part of the presentations in just a minute, and she's already coming up. But let me tell you that the center is the recipient of the 2013 Unity Award given at the 18th annual Unity Breakfast on Martin Luther King Jr. Day. This award honors individuals and organizations who go beyond the call of duty to help unify their committee. And the William Wells Brown Community Center is one of the most active centers in our city. And so, Jill, come on right up here. Why don't you share with us a little bit about the award and what's going on. I am honored to be here. It's always a pleasure to come to the council meeting when I'm not in trouble for something. So this is a good thing. But actually, every year, Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, the graduate chapter of Lexington, recognizes an agency within the community that exemplifies the dream of Dr. Martin Luther King. So this year, the Rotary Club of Lexington, along with myself as director at the William Wells Brown Community Center, will recognize for, I guess, just for being who we are and implementing wonderful things in the community and carrying out the vision of Dr. Martin Luther King and making sure that everybody is equal and having a great time. So I guess we're considered just as equal as the Rotary Club. So that's a cool thing, right? But as director, I've been there. This is our sixth year of the doors being open, and I want to thank a lot of people, Mr. Ford especially, and my supervisor and all of the Division of Parks and Recreation. And I can't leave out our wonderful neighborhood president, Ms. Billy Mallory, for supporting me and giving us all the resources and developing wonderful partnerships to keep everything going. But we have an array of activities at the center. So if you've never been to William Wells Brown, you need to come and visit. We're there. We have a lot of activities for youth, teens, adults, and seniors. Thanks, Jill. You're welcome. Jill, William Wells Brown, a nice hand of applause. Okay. Two proclamations to present tonight, the Speak Peace to Violence Day and Bicycle Safety Rodeo Day. So I'll ask Council Members Siobhan Akers and Chris Ford to join me down at the podium. Thank you all. Thank you. All right. All right. Well, first we're going to present a proclamation for Speak Peace to Violence Day. We are pleased to welcome the youth ministry of First African Baptist Church, and it is a group made up of 6th to 12th graders. I want to thank all of you and the adult advisors for joining us tonight. Thank you all. I was looking around there for Pastor Moore. Okay, this youth ministry, and Council Member Akers is going to help me here, This youth ministry is helping coordinate the Speak Peace to Violence march that's coming up in May. And I'm going to ask Council Member Akers to introduce our speakers and a little information about the ongoing efforts in her district to reduce youth violence. Thank you, Mayor. The Speak Peace to Violence video and project stemmed from the First African Baptist Church youth involvement in the Kentucky Teen Institute. The Teen Institute is a four-day camp providing a dynamic educational experience by bringing together teens from all over Kentucky. During this time, the youth shared their challenges and the challenges that their peers face, generating ideas, team action plans to implement in their schools and communities. Thirteen youth and four adult advisors from First African Baptist Church attended. The video that you're going to see here in just a moment was created and edited all by the youth to raise awareness of teen violence. The youth are all directly involved in planning the May 18th Speak Peace to Violence Day, which will include a walk at 1 p.m. and a full day of activities. Pastor Moore from First African Baptist Church has been part of the leadership, as well as Stacey Owens, Anita Hartsfield, Reverend Anthony Hartsfield, and Shirley Livesey. It is now my privilege to introduce to you all the youth from First African Baptist Church. And first up is Haley Tinsley. Hello, Mary Gray and council members. Our church just came up with a project called Speak Peace to Violence. In John 14, 27, Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you. Not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid. It was the summer of 2012 while we were at a Kentucky Teen Institute camp where we realized a lot of teens have lost their lives due to senseless acts of violence. We don't want any more family members or loved ones to lose their teen due to senseless acts of violence. Now we will have Camille Carter who will give her testimony about this. Hello. I'm so glad and honored to be standing in front of you today as you all are advocates for our project, Speaking Peace to Violence. It is important that we give awareness to the community about the serious topic, for violence occurs every day. I personally have experienced the heartache and pain of losing a dear loved one to ruthless acts of violence. On September 25, 2012, my cousin, Jalil Raglin, was brutally murdered due to an act of jealous rage while visiting his month-old son. Imagine the amount of agony you would go through if you lost your son or daughter, and never even got a chance to say goodbye and that you love them. That's why we are here today, for we need your support and your help to end violence here in Lexington, because we can't do it alone. So now we will present our video, Speaking Peace to Violence. Thank you. According to Family First Aid, did you know that more teens died due to violent acts each year? Also according to Family First Aid, did you know that homicide is the second leading cause of death among young people ages 10 to 24? We, the youth of First African Masters Church in Lexington, Kentucky, would like to address this facing issue within our community by Speaking Peace to Violence. In our quest to speak peace to violence, we have decided to put together a couple of special events that will raise awareness and seek support for the cause. On March 23rd, we're having a Peace Walk, and on May 22, we're hosting a Peace Fairhouse. Both events will be open to our community, schools, churches, city leaders, and other various youth groups. Getting others involved into our projects is key to its success. We don't want any more mothers, fathers, grandmothers, sisters, or brothers to have to bury a loved one due to senseless acts of violence. One of our church drivers knows what it's like to lose our young son. For a parent to bury their child, keep us in doubt. Don't rush to be angry. Anger can last a short time. Death is a lifetime. If any of you are disrespectful to any of your parents, change it. Because you're headed towards the wrong path. And the wrong people are going to find you. And they're going to play on that. Our most exciting challenge ahead of us is creating our peace. Our peace from now shows our commitment to speak in peace to violence. KTI inspired us to advocate peace in our community, not only in our community, but in our churches and schools as well. Help us put a silence to violence. Silence to violence! Respect is loyalty in the book of success. If you silence the violence, don't never forget. Silence to violence! Peace on earth, and then it begins with me. Let the Mary be peace on earth, the peace that was meant to be. When God has a father, God is all to me. Let every walk with my brother, in earth is all the need. Let it ease me, live with me, let this be the moment now. With every step I take, let this be my soul and love. To take each moment and live in strong with peace eternally. Let the peace of God and let it begin with me. Thank you. Cameron Mason and as you know we're here to talk about the State Peace of Violence project so that we can advocate peace in our schools in our community. The biggest project that we have coming up so far is the Peace Day on May 18th and it's gonna include a series of activities throughout the day such as a presentation in the march throughout the west end of town and it's going to be located at our Mission House on the corner of Price Road and Georgetown Street. And we're just here today to ask for help and your assistance. Whatever that you can provide is going to be greatly appreciated. And I want to thank you for your time on behalf of our pastor and our youth advisors and our church family, because we are honored to be the church in the community for the hearts in the community, because blessed are the peacemakers for they shall be called the children of God, Matthew 5-9. Thank you. Okay, thank you all for sharing all of that with us tonight and the video. So let me ask now if all of those involved in the youth ministry and the advisors and Pastor Moore, would everybody come up front? We want to get a picture taken with the council members. And also I want to ask Jody Cook. Jody is here with our, yes, she's looking up. Jody is our Community Partners Coordinator for Partners for Youth. I got that title just right, didn't I? Thank you. And works with Laura Hatfield and with Beth Mills and the whole team. Come on up here, Jody. And again, I just want to also congratulate all the kids and just let you all know how proud I am and to see such positive engagement in the community and to remind everybody again that the church is located or the activities will be on the corner of Price and Georgetown Road. So Council Member Akers has the proclamation. So, Siobhan, why don't you go right there in the middle with that proclamation, proclaiming Speak Peace to Balance Day. All right. Thank you. Thank you all again. Thank you all so much. Thank you. All right. While our friends from First African are departing, let me ask Council Member Chris Ford to join me. Our next proclamation is for Bicycle Safety Rodeo Day. Lexington, as everybody knows, has a vigorous, vibrant, and a growing bicycling community. It's important for us to use the safest methods while bicycling. So Council Member Ford will tell us about the bicycle safety rodeo event held on December 1st at the William Wells Brown Community Center. Jill, we just heard from Jill all about it. Council Member Ford. Thank you. Yes, sir. Thank you, Mayor, Vice Mayor, and members of Council. I'm honored to stand here today as we celebrate the members of our community who continue to give on behalf of the youth of our community. I know we, in our previous meeting, Council Member Elliger expressed how avid of a cyclist he is, so I know he can appreciate the hard work that has gone into the Bicycle Safety Rodeo Day competition that was held prior to the holidays on December 1, 2012, at the William Wells Brown Community Center. So many people came together, and this is just another exercise of our community doing more with less. The project basically consisted of bicycles, which had been donated over 60-some bicycles that many of the community members, our neighborhood association, and many of the fine folks at Parks and Recreation came to recruit folks to repair the bicycles to prepare them for new use. And once the weather clears here, hopefully in a few days, if we're lucky, the youth of our community will be able to use those bicycles and enjoy safe cycling activity. As a council member, I know you guys can all relate that there is so much grassroots energy that goes on through all of our districts. And so I stand here today being able to present, knowing that so much of the work was done behind the scenes. And I'm going to ask my council aide, Ms. Tiffany Tatum, if she will come and introduce some of the folks who played an active part. from Parks and Recreation, our Division of Planning, William Wills Brown, Bluegrass Cycling Club, Broke Spoke Bike Shop, Lexington Bike Bicycling Center, Police, Food Works, and Bluegrass Community Foundation. I'm so thankful and appreciative of you, and Tiffany will personalize the folks here today. Thank you. A few of the other partners that helped with this event was the UK Trauma Acute Care Surgery and COSAR Children's Hospital in Louisville. As a result of all of these partnerships from various organizations, 60 elementary and middle school age children participated in the free bicycle safety course. All 60 children received a free safety helmet and 28 children received a free refurbished bicycle and lock. Some of the individuals who helped with the event are here today and I just wanted to recognize them as those who assisted us with giving their time and their resources to making this event a success. So I will list off a few of the people and if you would like to come up before Council We'll take a picture as well. Those individuals are Jill Wilson, Angie Green, Billy Mallory, Evelyn Bologna, Bill Cole, Christine Cole, Gary Collins, Tom Walters, Doug Beckhart, Mike Galbraith, Sergeant Sam Murdock, Sherry Maddock, Jackie French, Luke Box, Derek Malone, Debbie Holleran, Larry Brown, Roger Damon, Elena Insko, Jerry Hancock, Councilmember Ford, as well as Councilmember Ellinger. Good, Tiffany. You better come up here, too. Tiffany, come on up here. All right. Okay, so let's get a picture with all the council members again. This is the official proclamation, which while Ed's bringing everybody together here, giving good instructions, the proclamation recognizes and proclaims March 7, 2013 as Bicycle Safety Rodeo Day in Lexington. Oh, Jesus. Thank you. one additional person, and I apologize, Carol Wright with UK. She was very helpful in getting the helmets donated for us. Thanks. All right. All right. All right.

Is there any further discussion on the motion? All right. Hearing none, then we can take a vote. All in favor of the motion, please indicate by saying aye. Aye. Opposed, no. Motion carries. And I recuse. And the clerk will note the recusal by Vice Mayor Gordon. All right. Thank you. Chief Compton. The floor is now available for any council members for an announcement. Council Member Farmer. By way of announcement, I would just, again, compliment big-ass fans and tell the council that tomorrow afternoon at 4 o'clock they'll be here to install the new fans that they have graciously provided for the chamber. So I look forward to the opportunity to have that wind fly by faster. And then secondarily, tomorrow, Mayor, I look forward to joining you at 1 o'clock for the press conference across at the, I guess it's at the police headquarters, about narcotics in our city. I think it's a very important topic, and I'm glad you've taken the time to bring folks together. I look forward to being there. Thank you. That's it. Thank you, Mayor. Mayor. I know. Council Member Lane. I'd just like to say the big-ass fence contribution will be a big windfall for the council. Thank you, Council Member Lane, for that observation as well. All right. And, Council Member Farmer, I know that Susan Strub will appreciate that heads up on that one o'clock, that announcement. Yes. I'm working to get in her good graces even now. All right. Does anyone else have anything to offer before public comments? All right. We do have one citizen signed up. It's Billy Mallory, and she is on the way to the podium. Billy Mallory, 549 Mustang Crossing, 1st District. And this has kind of become a moot point since a motion was made and passed about the Neighborhood Action Match grant. But I would still like to express my concern. since we are a neighborhood association that submitted a grant. We submitted it on time, and announcements were supposed to have been made December 31st. And sometime in January, when I received no notification, I called the grants office and they said, oh, that's been delayed because we don't have a sitting committee. You all will be notified by February 28th. So February 28th came and went, and this week received a letter that said there was going to be further delay, which would be in April. Now, I've written a number of grants, and I feel like if those of us who applied followed the guidelines, submitted them on time, that we should have expected, rightfully so, for those to have been granted on time. And I don't know what the delay was, and I'm glad that that has been passed. And hopefully those funds will be released soon because those grants require matching funds. They require community service. And some of those grants, ours in particular, is time-sensitive because we're going to do spring planting. So I'm glad that you all have made that action, and hopefully that will not set a precedent in future times for grants to be delayed. Thank you. Thank you, Ms. Mallory. Thank you very much. That's all who have signed up. There's a motion by Council Member Stenet to adjourn, second by Council Member Ellinger. unless there is an objection, strenuous one, then we will be object, we will adjourn.
