And I thought this Adopt-A-Park is a perfect example of this mission. So in three years, what's different about this year? This year is different because we have adult and youth partnership. It's not just the young people doing something and it's not just adult doing something. We have adult and young people doing it together. This year we have 180 young people involved in the Adopt-A-Park. This year we have for the month of June, July, we have the whole two months instead of just two weeks, like last year. And this year, we also have a young man that had been started three years ago and continues staying with us, and now he's a member of our neighborhood youth council and later on will be introduced. But most importantly, this year, the big difference is we have so many of the partners that join in embracing this whole idea about the community, embracing our young people, providing them the opportunities for engaging in positive activities that is the way of reducing the general delinquency and also through this in the neighborhood where they belong that's gained that sense of the belonging and you will know some of the games they recruit the young people what they provide to the young people a sense of belonging and we are able in our a community able to through all the partners we are able to provide to those young people a sense of belonging so here i would like to read out the list of the members and if the community partner members would either raise your hand or stand up or whichever way to that other council members to be recognized about your involvement and your collaboration with us we have calvary church of the Nazarene and we have Cardinal Valley Park Activity Board, Community Action Council, Cosmic Steak Shop, the Fire Department, Friends for Skate Parks, Nataniel Mission, Cardinal Valley and Gangsway Neighborhood Youth Council, Nerd squad, our own park and recreation, our own police, UK PAP, that is the student group of the health provider at the University of Kentucky. And we also have Unitarian Universalist, Urban Impact and Lexington Leadership Foundation, we have Village Branch Library, we have Vitalize Healthcare, of course we have council member henson's office and partners for youth those are our partners and let's give them a round of applause for their efforts. Thank you Stephanie. Adopt a park is the strongest example of collaboration you will find anywhere in Lexington. Our partners spent almost the entire summer with our children, providing safe, reliable activities and a positive influence. This type of investment in our children is so important. In July, with the help of friends for the skate park and Cosmic Skate Shop, we provided a skateboarding clinic two days of free lessons to help celebrate the Valley Park skate spot that was also we had a ribbon cutting and grand opening of that spot and then at the end of the clinic we gave away 40 skateboards and helmets to our adopt-a-park youth and now those kids are skateboarding so I want to highlight Mazzari Juarez and her neighborhood youth council Mazzari's leadership with the neighborhood youth council students and it's spot is inspiring she engaged these young leaders to work with our youth throughout the summer showing them the true meaning of community engagement I will point out that councilmember James Brown expanded the program to his district hosted an adoptive park at Douglas and MLK Park and they also had an enormous success I truly believe it takes a village to raise children now look at the 11th district in this Cardinal Valley area is my village and I see these partners as my village people but and I've told them that over and over and over again you know they're the work they do is just extremely valuable and I guess and Stephanie has already read the the the partners but I'll have the vice mayor if he would come forward and present the proclamation and then we'll get a photo thank you Thank you so much, Councilmember Henson. And I believe everybody, both on council, who have worked with Councilmember Henson over the years, and all of the people in the community know how committed she is to this kind of program. It's one of the ways in which our community really shines. And the 11th District has had great leadership over the years. Thank you for all of that. Again, Mayor Gray could not be here tonight, but I'm going to present this proclamation to Pastor Matthew Cole, if you step forward, and I'll read it and then I'll hand it to you and we can take pictures. So this says, Adopt-a-Park Partners Day. Whereas Adopt-a-Park provides free, safe, reliable activities for young people in the summer months and during spring break, and whereas in Cardinal Valley Adopt-a-Park activities were created by Partners for Youth and its I Do initiative, City of Lexington, and nearby organizations, and whereas Adopt-a-Park programs are made possible because of partners who adopt days and provide programming, including the 14 partner organizations and 60 volunteers who made the summer's success in Valley Park, and whereas Adopt-a-Park bridges the gap between young people and city hall and whereas the city's police and fire departments play an important role in adopt a park and whereas this summer adopt a park provided activities for more than 180 young people in valley park now therefore i jim gray mayor of lexington in celebration of the volunteers and partners who offer activities through adopt a park do hereby declare september 28 2017 adopt a Park Partners Day. Thank you so much. And if we could have the partners, why don't we all gather up front in front of the... I'm sorry. I'm new at this. A few words from the pastor. Actually, Steve was just being really smart not to yield the microphone to a pastor. To be given a title, whether it is bestowed or elected or granted, however that title is given is truly an honor. To be given an opportunity, though, is a privilege. And along with all the other organizations that you have heard mentioned this afternoon, we've been given a privilege to serve our community. Throughout these last three summers, we've been granted these days, these afternoons, to hang out with the kids, with the teens from across Cardinal Valley. And during that time, we've had the great privilege to do everything from play gaga to build paper airplanes and talk about how aerodynamics work. We've done chemistry experiments and saw how peppermint candy pigment spreads across a plate. We've made bubbles and just all sorts of different things that you can imagine. We've watched them learn about water safety and safety and hygiene within their own communities and just how to be a better community. And if anything that has taken place in the midst of all of these conversations over these last three summers is that we've been in the process of building community. We went from the place to where it was a gathering of a few kids three summers ago to play a few games here or there to where now it's a gathering of community. People are looking forward, they're waiting for that first day of adopt-apart during the summer. They're dropping by the church from time to time and saying, now when does it start again and when are we going again And when we're gonna play that game again, and when is this group gonna stop by we really miss what they had to do And so it just really is an incredible privilege to have the opportunity to serve in our community Thank you now if people come up front, we'll we'll take a picture with the council Good job. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. I believe that brings us down to ordinances for second reading. Madam Clerk, when you're ready.

Really, we can't do anything about the road until we possess it, and this will give us possession of it if this deal goes through. Thank you. Do you want me to respond? I have a couple of questions. I think there's a couple of questions that we need to ask about this, and one of them is LCC's timeline. and will postpone it as swap to the next council meeting, that impact LCC's expansion. Is there anybody that can answer that question, any of the board representatives? Would either of the council members or Mr. Edmonds? I think the question is would a two-week delay make a substantial difference in the LCC plans? in essence may I may I unless you want to go ahead I don't believe it make any difference in the LCC timeline to delay this for two weeks on the other hand I don't think it would do any good to delay this for two weeks that answers your question and I was I was rung in here to speak in on behalf of and following up on councilmember Gibbs there is way more good than bad to come out of this and there's no reason not to do it and I I believe we should move forward and not table because we're here to take action, not to not take action. So I would move forward. Thank you. Thank you. Council Member Gibbs, did you have anything else to add? I'd just say I think it's an excellent deal, I think, and we voted 8 to 1 in committee, and I just hate to leave this sitting on the table, leave it in limbo. I'd like to go ahead and execute the deal, and then we're in a position to negotiate about what happens to Jefferson Street, which is what the issue is all about. So that's my position. So I would vote against tabling it. Thank you. Thank you. Councilmember Maloney. I support tabling this. I do have a question for the administration. Who is going to pay to tear the bridge down? Is that part of that $750,000 that we set aside? I asked that question, what was the $750,000 for Rupp Arena and all that this year? Is it part to pay for this? Or is Rupp Arena paying? I mean, is the LCC paying for this, or who is paying for the bridge to be tore down? I think Councilmember Stennett answered that question correctly last week. We're still in process to identify funding. I can't hear you speaking. What is it? I think Councilmember Stennett answered that question correctly last week when he said that we were in process of identifying funding. So you all are willing to tear the bridge down? Is that what I'm understanding? That's what he just said. you you saying that the lcc is going to tear the bridge still no i just got a different story here no you didn't get a different story we're in process of identifying the funding whether that be lcc funding city funding or town branch park funding so the 750 000 that we set aside this year is that the money going to go to pair the bridge deal that's not what it was intended for no so where are you getting the money to tear the bridge there we're in process to identify the money to do that. I don't want to, I mean that's why I'm glad with tabling this because I don't want to vote for something and I'm gonna bring up another question later on. Well you have no idea where you're getting the money from and we got a budget coming up next year that nobody knows what how bad it's gonna be and now you're telling me us to vote for something we don't have the money number one and number two we don't know who's gonna tear it down. Monday's meeting that we have with the church did not change our recommendation on the road swap. We're not asking you to tear the bridge down right now we're asking you to take the next step in the process which is approving the road swap. Right now we have no authority to help the church. The whole intent for the road swap was to do with the bridge. With that darn bridge and that was the tension all along and when that bridge came open they said well we want to trade some roads. Now the bridge is a big question mark on it who's going to tear it down. I'm against swapping any road because we can't we got enough problem taking care of the roads we have now and we heard a good presentation from some constituents i just have a problem and i'm glad we're tabling this because i think there's a lot of unanswered question here and hopefully we'll be able to answer this but is the road swap need to be done as soon as possible or you all wanting to hold off like this so we can get everything straightened out is that is Is your main reason for the motion is to find out what we're going to do with Jefferson Bidoc? Is that what you're reading the table there? Yes, sir. I have a couple of other questions, too, but that's part of the main concern. I think that's the catalyst for the whole road swap. So I think the sensitivity around that, I think we need to make sure we answer those questions and address them before we move forward. Now, if we worked out with the church, have we had any meetings? How did that church meeting go with them? Have they worked out the problem with the church? Well, that's one of my next questions, if I may, is I was going to ask, have we arranged another meeting or scheduled another meeting with the church? I know it was some items brought up and there was going to be a follow up. So I guess I would ask Brandy, Brandy Preacher, have we already scheduled or are there plans to schedule a future meeting with the church to discuss what was this follow up? I'm sorry, Councilmember Brown, before we hear from Brandy, Councilmember Maloney still has about a minute left. Do you have more to say before we hear from Brandon? Well, no, I think he answered, but I think we need to know the answer to church because that's two of my reasons. First of all, who's going to pay for it and have we worked out the problem with the church? I'm not ready to vote on anything if we haven't done either one of those. Thank you. Randy? Thank you. To answer Councilmember Brown's question, we have not set up a meeting just yet. the next steps that we identified with the church on Monday were to explore a couple of other opportunities, but all of those depend upon if we have possession of the street. So we are going to continue to look at these ideas and meet with the church at the appropriate time, hopefully in the next few weeks, to set up what are the next steps for the design. But that's all that I can speak to is the design piece and what will fit in the space itself. Thank you. Council Member Brown, additional questions or comments? Yeah, another question or comment that I'd like to make that was brought up is whether there is a legal issue that needs to be answered or addressed pertaining to the future intent or use of that property. And I think that it is being researched, and I think until we have that answer, I think it would be wise of us to take a little time and do our due diligence before we move forward. That's another reason I'm asking to table it. Thank you. Councilmember Henson. Thank you, Vice Mayor. I would prefer if it will not cause any real problems to support your motion, table this, give us some more time. to because I do know that perhaps that there is a legal document relating to the church and promises that were made by our government back many years ago that needs to be looked at. So I would err on the side of caution. So thank you, Councilmember Brown. Thank you. Just to clarify, the parliamentarian raised a question. I want to kind of address it. And we've had this discussion before. I believe the motion was to, although he said to table, he also said a particular time. that when a motion is made that's really a motion to postpone not the table to a particular time then that's debatable so i believe that the question is debatable because we are postponing to a particular to a set time and again if people object to the ruling that we can well i guess i will say this i think it's a moot point at this point because we've already um so well i think I think that we should move forward and take a vote. I call for the question. There's a motion and a second to call for the question. All those in favor, please say aye. Aye. Any opposed? No. That motion carries. There will be no further debate on the question. All those in favor, please say aye. Aye. Aye. All opposed? No. Let's do an electronic voting so we know who's voting yes and who's voting no. In favor of the motion, please log in with yes or no. I believe that vote reflects passage of the motion. that would allow us to continue with the reading of the resolutions on number 41.

So moved. Motion and a second. Is there a discussion on the motion? Seeing none, I think I am going to ask a question. I'd just like a little clarification. I think that it would be useful for the council and the public to have a little bit of the rationale for this. thank you we're asking for this resolution tonight because we have the heritage with the heritage councils who we've been dealing with but it's really their staffing the military commission they want the application by the 10th of october and what they and since the council is gone next week that's why we would like this resolution our and I think what may concern you Councilmember Kaye is we have not received our binding a draft binding agreement from the cemetery as to date we're hoping that we receive that next week what our application will be though is we will we have discussed this with them in detail is we will send in our application saying that we are locating those statues in the cemetery we are protecting them in such a way we are setting up an endowment for their maintenance and then we will explain that what we are doing is maintaining the same standards under which those statues are now placed they're in Fayette County they're in a historic area and and they are moved as is and if these this changes when we have the binding agreement from the cemetery then we have the opportunity to alter this as we go through until we get to the 14th but they intend to hold a public hearing on this and that's what the um the necessity that helps sir thank you that's very helpful councilmember scotchfield Any other discussion on this? If not, we can take a vote. All in favor, please say aye. Any opposed? That motion carries. And then I guess, if you will, Madam Clerk, give us first reading. Number 57, a resolution authorizing the mayor on behalf of the Urban County Government to petition the Kentucky Military Heritage Commission for permission to relocate the John Hunt Morgan and John C. Breckenridge statues, located at 215 and 251 West Main Street, respectively, in Lexington, Kentucky, to the Lexington Cemetery in Lexington, Fayette County. Thank you. Now, are there any motions to suspend the rules and give second reading? Councilman Maloney. I just want to ask, I'm sorry, I wanted to ask a question on number 56, and the question I have is, and it's similar to what I just mentioned before, is how much money do we need to match this thing with? How much money are we going to have to come up to match number 56? 20% for those costs. So for Lane Allen, it's $72,000. For the Mount Tabor multimodal, it would be $274. For Avenue of Champions, $368,000. And for the South Elcourt Trail, $53,000. That's if we get all four of those, which we do not anticipate we would. Where are you all going to get the money to do the match? If we get these awards, where is the money coming from to match, to get that money? Well, the same place we normally get the match. So it can come from MAP funds or it can come from other funds. So you use MAP funds and what else? Depends on the budget at that time. So we are not limited to using MAP funds, but we could also use other funds. General funds, bond funds, we can use it from multiple sources. multiple sources we have used map in the past I think it would depend on which ones we would get and where we are in the budget at the time so the question I have is we know that the budget pad and all that map money gets smaller it seems like it's getting smaller every year what happened if we get awarded this and we don't have match money to match that what did that get egg on our face from the best look no because I've never I just want to be what happened there would be no egg on our face if we if we turn it down we turn it down so Okay, that's what I need. But I'll say this, the chance to get these projects done for 20% of the cost, and this is construction, and in some cases right-of-way, so this is not design. We have design done on these. This is for the actual construction. To get the construction done at 20% of the cost, I think, is a good chance. Thank you. Council Member Scottsville is for suspensions. Thank you. Vice Mayor, I have a motion to suspend the rules and give a second reading to number 49 and 54. I have a motion and a second to suspend on and give second reading to 49 and 54.

I can hear you. Okay, you want to read all three that you want to suspend the rules on? I can. We'll take it all at once. So in number 27, which is our conditional offers of employment. And number 56, which is the the grants that Councilmember Maloney just asked a question about, and I believe that's all. Thank you. So we have number 24, number 27, number 56. I have a motion and a second. Discussion on the motion? All in favor, please say aye. Any opposed? That motion carries. Council Member Stinnett. Thank you, Vice Mayor. I have number 39 and number 55.

Council members, if you have any announcements, please sign in. Council member James Brown. Thank you, Vice Mayor. And I just want to add some clarity to the tabling of the road swap situation. I'm in complete support of Town Branch and move forward with that project. I'm also excited about the expansion project with LCC. But I think there's some questions that we just need to make sure that we get answered and work through with the church, the entity that has come and asked us to work with them. And I think moving forward and dealing in good faith, I think by us at least taking some time and letting them know how the process is going, I think we are doing our part to negotiate and to work with them as good partners. But I just wanted to reiterate that I was in support of the project, the park, and all that moving forward. Another announcement I'd like to make is myself and a few fellow council members that have been working on the veteran initiative here in Lexington are invited to attend the Kentucky Veterans Hall of Fame that's going to take place in Frankfurt this tomorrow night, Friday night, and Saturday morning. and they're going to make an announcement, and I hope I'm not jumping the gun, but they're going to move that Kentucky's Veteran Hall of Fame celebration ceremony and recognition to Lexington next year. And hopefully, if everything turns out right and we're a gracious host to them, then they will look to try to continue to have that here in Lexington for years to come. So I look forward to attending that event and welcoming the Hall of Fame to Lexington. Thank you, Vice Mayor. thank you uh councilmember bledsoe i thank you vice mayor i just have two announcements on saturday the hillendale neighborhood association is having their fall festival it's from two to five at the hillendale park and then on sunday we're having the taste of beaumont at moon dance amphitheater from two to seven and that's an open event it's free um three live bands eight food vendors lots of lots of fun activities for kids and so that's from two to seven on sunday thank you Thank you. I see no one else signed up, so I'll ask Council Member Stinnett to take the chair. I'd like to speak just for a moment. Vice Mayor Kay. Thank you. I was planning to speak to the question that Council Member James Brown raised about postponing that vote, and I do want to weigh in on it. We're often kind of faced with the question of whether we're going too fast or too slow on a particular item, and it's not always clear whether we're just delaying for delay's sake or whether there's something at issue. But my take on this particular question is that it's very complex. it's a lot of moving parts and if we can wait a couple weeks without doing any harm to the larger question of the the park moving forward and Civic Center moving forward I'm glad that that passed I'm glad that we're doing that I think this is a time when we have some time and I think we ought to take it and we're going to take it and I'm hoping that by taking that additional time we will come closer to agreement about how we need to proceed with this particular issue of closing the roads and taking down the bridge and figuring out how best to accommodate all the needs of the various parties that have been there a long time. So, thank you. Back to you, Vice Mayor. Thank you. Council Member Stinnett. Thank you, Vice Mayor. Let me just add a couple things. One, from the LCC board standpoint, our main focus, just so everyone's clear, is not this bridge. It's our LCC project. It's not the park. It's our LCC project. And until we get our final number, which will be in another 30 to 45 days, we don't know what else to tell anyone in terms of the other issues. So we're focused on getting our project priced, and then we'll be able to move forward, and the council will have better information in about 30 to 45 days. So this two-week wait doesn't hurt us at all. so moving forward but I share in some of the concerns I think I made the board aware of it today Council Member Brown and Council Member Gibbs I know is gone and then Council Member Smith you were there your districts that meet right there and we're all aware of it at this point we weren't before today the whole issue but I think everyone's ready to work together LCC wants to be a good neighbor we've been a good neighbor We've been a good neighbor to other churches around us that use our parking lot on High Street We have a condominium association that uses our parking lot on the corner of Maxwell and South Broadway from time to time So we've tried to be it been a good neighbor But we have parameters to within our park We have parameters with the parking same as everyone else does downtown So we're aware of all the issues and it's very complex We don't know who's going to pay for it yet, but we want to pay for it and as part of this project if we can in we again we don't have our number yet and until we do that's where we're at today and we had a good board meeting this morning and hopefully we'll get some resolution next 30 days as well thank you vice mayor thank you i see no one else signed in for announcements but we do have a disciplinary hearing uh commander lyons good evening on two stage light 18 2017 an allegation was made officer Kendall Turner number four nine two zero two violated general order in nineteen seventy three zero two high disciplinary procedures appendix B operational rules section one zero two misconduct that was merged with one two four use of weapons at the conclusion of the investigation the employee met with chief Mark Gardner and is accepted at 20-hour suspension without pay thank you Do I have a motion? Is there a second? I also want to clarify one thing. I misspoke and I said we had a disciplinary hearing and that's incorrect. We have an item to consider. Yes, sir.

Okay, thank you. I was not supposed to speak tonight, so let me just say that. Leander Ridgeway, our head of trustees at the church, was supposed to speak. When he got here, found out his father was ill and he had to run. So he has given me what I am supposed to say, okay? I come to you on behalf of the Main Street Baptist Church. Mr. Mayor, who's not here, Mr. Vice Mayor, Council Members. I would like to report that we had a meeting on Monday, September the 25th, with Town Branch Common Representatives, Lexington Civic Center Corporation representatives, council members, Brandy Preacher, and supporting staff of the Mayor's office. During this meeting, we were presented with parking assessments and recommendations as it relates to the parking needs of the church. Unfortunately, after careful review, the church felt that the initial recommendations presented were not conducive to our needs to remain a valuable entity. During the same meeting, Main Street Baptist Church presented several counter proposals that we have asked these committees to consider. They have agreed to review and evaluate said counter proposals. It was agreed by both parties to reconvene when all counter proposals have been thoroughly reviewed and are ready for continued discussion. We look forward to constructive discussions that will hopefully result in a win-win proposition for both parties. We would like to thank Mayor Jim Gray, Vice Mayor Steve Kaye, Ann Bacchus, Allison Lankford, Jamie Evans, Bill Owens, Brandi Peacher. I'm going to say it wrong anyway, so I apologize. Stan Harvey, councilmen, council people, Jake Gibbs, James Brown, Joe Smith, and Bill Farmer for attending this meeting. Thank you. Thank you. Next would be Bernard McCarthy. I want to say that I strongly object to the closing of any public roadway, especially an arterial, and your proposal to tear down the Jefferson Viaduct is a horrible mistake. I suspect that tearing out parking spaces to expand the Civic Center is also a mistake, because what good's a bigger building to fit more customers into going to do you if you wipe out the spaces they would have parked their cars in and make it impossible for them to get there? But really, people claim that the opening of Oliver Lewis Way is supposed to be an excuse to tear out Jefferson. Gee, if I'd known you were going to tear out Jefferson as soon as Oliver Lewis Way got built, I wouldn't have put near so much effort over the years into fighting to get what you're now calling Oliver Lewis Way. And believe me, I have nagged and argued with your predecessors from December of 1974 onwards to fighting over that road, which was proposed in a long-range plan about five years before I was even born, drove my decisions on where to put my own house, which nonprofit organization gets most of my vacation days and my Saturdays and even some of my money, which way I voted in quite a few elections and I mean I've actually helped build 400 habitat for humanity houses over the past 27 years which is definitely more than the 172 houses that my bosses have wiped out for all the roads I've worked on plans for in 38 years and 10 months. But I will point out it took, it's been 67 years since this road, since Oliver Lewis Way first showed up in a long-range plan. It's been 37 years, well, no, 36 years roughly since a state speaker of the House died from a blood clot in the lungs one year after saying that Oliver Lewis Way could only be built over his dead body. And if you go and rip out a street we've already had all along, that nullifies the relief from our traffic jams that we hoped to get by building Oliver Lewis Way. Thank you. Next would be Al Johnson. Thank you. And then next would be Don Pratt. Years ago, I went to a presentation on the redoing of Davis Bottom. And at that presentation, I saw what I considered a manipulation of the public, public comment, public dissent, public criticism. They did not want it to be seen and heard publicly. This is an ongoing thing I think has been learned by people proposing to spend big money, and I'm afraid it's happening here. I saw the same process at the Thomas Hunt Morgan House when they presented the $40 million linear park through town. I had early on been a critic of this because the first proposal to raise the creek was as asinine as this proposal is. Why? You can read my letter to the editor today. It's a waste of money when you can spend money wiser. I compliment the spending of money to put the flyer plant groupings between here and gray construction. Scotty Basler did a similar thing back when the national NCAA was here. But like the $40 million park, the $250 million spending on Ruppa Arena, it's extremely questionable. I come here to make a suggestion to you and to the public as a whole. We should have a webpage paid for by the city and even other access to it, maybe at a public place like the library where it would be safe and secure, to go in and see that project as it was presented at the Thomas Hunt Morgan home, excuse me, slipping mine. But for the public to be able to have input just like tonight, I am seriously critical of the $250 million proposal simply because I saw the $5 million wasted on the proposal to glassify Rupp Arena, which part of this money is to do again. It's just plain stupid. And I see so many of these projects stupid over and over and over again, just like destroying the Jefferson Street Viaduct, which actually could be a park, rather than wasting money on the park they proposed down below when they tear it out. This parking could be maintained. We need parking and it's too excessive to use parking below ground or above ground for the future Wildcat fans. It will be costly. I experienced it in Cincinnati going to the downtown parking for all those facilities. Thank you. Thank you. I believe there is no one else signed up for public comment. I would entertain a motion to adjourn. Without objection, we stand adjourned. The End I'm sorry. I could walk on one or two. Believe in me. My love is so true. Na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na. Na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na. Na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na. Na-na-na-na-na-na-na. I'm no angel now. I'll admit I'm in a stupid mood. I'm sure I hurt you once or so you said Just one more chance is all you get Didn't mean to do you wrong again Most things have been done by better men Baby, baby, don't treat me this way How long have I got to pay now? I'm still playing And if I could walk on water And if I could find some way to prove If I could walk on water Would you believe in me?
