Good evening, everybody. Good evening, good afternoon. Let's start the meeting. It's 6 o'clock. And I'll call the meeting to order. With a request to the clerk to please call the roll. Madam Clerk, it's yours. Yes, sir. Ms. Plowman. Here. Mr. Smith. Here. Mr. Stennett. Yes, ma'am. Mr. Worley. Here. Ms. Bledsoe. Yes. Mr. Fred Brown. Here. Mr. James Brown. Here. Ms. Evans. Here. Mr. Farmer. Here. Mr. Farmer Yes ma'am I'm all here Mr. Gibbs Ms. Henson Vice Mayor Kay Ms. Lamb Mr. Maloney and Ms. Massadi Thank you Thank you Madam Clerk Tonight we are welcoming Chaplain Jesse Hilton Baldridge who is a retired youth minister and chaplain at Mayfair Manor, and he is the guest of Councilmember Farmer. Chaplain, thank you for joining us. If you'll take the podium right there beside you. Well, greetings to Mayor Gray and distinguished council members and city leaders and citizens. I won't make the same mistake I did some time ago at Mayfair Manor Nursing Center when Mayor Jim Gray, some of y'all know him, was our featured speaker as we honored several centenarians at our facility. I gave a Puritan prayer from the 1700s, and then Mayor Jim looked over and said, Congratulations, Jesse, for remembering that prayer from hearing it all that many years ago. I've never gotten over that one. That was a good one. I would ask, however, before I pray, just to read a few quotes from a famous gentleman that we honored this past Monday, probably all over the nation, but especially in Lexington, Martin Luther King, Jr. Life's most persistent and urgent question is, what are you doing for others? Faith is taking the first step even when you don't see the whole staircase. Human progress is neither automatic nor inevitable. Every step toward the goal of justice requires sacrifice, suffering, and struggle. The tireless exertions and passionate concern of dedicated individuals, I might add, such as yourselves. An individual has not started living until he can rise above the narrow confines of his individualistic concerns to the broader concerns of all humanity. May we pray. Dear Lord, I am reminded tonight of many friends I've known through the years since my birth in Lexington who have served their fellow citizens as these folks are doing here tonight. However, my mind goes back to my friend and council member, Razor Roy Durbin, who I think was called that because not only was he my barber as well as my son's barber, but he also often uttered some words that were about as sharp as his scissors. Yes, we all knew what he thought, that's for sure. Yet this character who had character went the second mile for his fellow men and women, boys and girls, not only serving in this distinguished council, but he helped to operate baseball for youths in the south side of Lexington, and my three kids, two boys and, yes, one girl, played on those baseball teams. He spent 30 plus years coming to Mayfair Manor and cutting the hair of many residents who couldn't get out to the barbershop. Finally, he came to my dad's home many times for his last few years on this earth to cut his hair after dad's health declined and he was blind. Yes, Roy Durbin was faithful to his constituents, clients, and his family, friends, and even his church. We thank you tonight for the way he blessed our lives. We also thank you for our mayor and council members tonight for the ways that each lady and gentleman here serve our citizens in our beautiful city. May you impart to them the wisdom to know how to serve, the compassion to be able to love, the humility to listen to others' ideas, and the courage to do what's right and best for our citizens. Then one day, each one of them may hear those wonderful words, well done, my good and faithful servant. We pray this prayer in your name. Amen. Jesse, thank you so much. Thank you, sir. We always say that we offer the invitation but not the obligation to stay for the meeting. We understand. Thank you for being with us. All right. I'll ask for a motion to approve the minutes of the previous meetings, October 12 and 26, November 9 and 16, and December 5 and 7. So moved. Second. Notion by Vice Mayor Kay and second by Council Member Plowman. Is there any discussion on the motion? All right. If not, we can vote. All in favor, please say aye. Aye. Opposed, no. Motion carries. We have a couple presentations tonight. The first, I'm going to invite Chief Kristen Chilton to the podium to present the Firefighter Combat Challenge Recognition. Chief? Good evening. I asked to come before you all because we have five members of our department that received the Grand National Championships for competing in the National Combat Challenge competition this year. And they received that both in the team and the relay divisions. So if you don't mind, I'm going to take about a minute and a half of your time, and they're going to actually play a short video for you and see exactly what they did to receive this recognition. and then I'll explain just a little bit more of what they did. But the five members that competed were firefighter John Barnott, firefighter Dan Dinsmore, firefighter John Girardi, firefighter Jordan Brown, and firefighter Doug Thompson. That is for David, Boston, Brian Leathers, Josh Mosley, and Randall Morris. That's 40. Fire combat on the blue. They're making their way up to the tower first. And our Lexington team is on the right side. Going to roll up and over, slam down. 21 and off. Lexington Fire making a surprise. Just a little bit about this, as you can see, as they're competing. This test was originally designed as a experiment as far as physical agility type thing and how the body reacts to what a firefighter does, and it became a competition. So it actually is five sequential fire ground activities all done one after another. one minute so as you can see they do the the lot they do the stair climb they come back down they have to pull the i mean there's five things that they do and it's all fire related um and it's all a timed event so what's really what why i really wanted them recognized is they did this with very very little assistance from the fire department they did majority of all this on their own time and they raised all their own funds through raffles through selling from selling hot dogs out front of kroger's and did all this to travel and do this they traveled over 8 000 miles last year to do this they went from virginia to dembraska and to alabama to compete in all of these different events that they had so I just thought it was really fantastic and I wanted just free for us to recognize them because they really did an outstanding job representing Lexington Fire Department and representing the city of Lexington when they went out so can we have them come forward please and I'm going to get some pictures. All right. Come on, guys. Come on right up here. Come on. Thank you. Thank you all very much. All right. Our next presentation, I'll invite Council Member Bledsoe and the American Red Cross Bluegrass Chapter Executive Director, Tawanda Owsley, to the podium. And there will be a presentation of the Golden Smoke Alarm Award. Council Member. Thank you, Mayor. In 2014, the American Red Cross launched a nationwide home fire campaign and rallied an army of volunteers, donors, and partners to canvass high-risk neighborhoods, install free smoke alarms, replace batteries and existing alarms, and help families create escape plans. As many of you know, our fire department, through the work of the very small but mighty community services team, installs free 10-year lithium battery smoke alarms in communities of need. This project and outreach would not be possible without the support and donation of the Bluegrass Chapter of the American Red Cross. I am very honored to welcome Twanda Osley of the podium today to celebrate the partnership they have had with the Lexington Fire Department and the community services team. I am also very excited to share some of the outstanding numbers of how many detectors they have been able to install in Lexington. Twanda? Thank you. Thank you, Mayor and Councilpersons. We are so excited with our partnership with the Lexington Fire Department. Thanks to the tireless work of the volunteers, employees, and local fire department and other partners, we've saved over 38 lives in the state of Kentucky because of our smoke alarm installation program. The Home Fire Campaign has installed more than 2,000 smoke alarms in conjunction with the Lexington Fire Department. So today, we celebrate that partnership. The Bluegrass Chapter of the American Red Cross is proud to offer our utmost gratitude and present the Lexington Fire Department with our Goading Smoke Alarm Award for their outstanding and diligent efforts to serve our community. Can we ask the Lexington Fire Department to join us? We thank you for partnering with us and saving lives. Thank you, Jordan. Thank you. I'm going to get a couple real quick. Oh, okay. All right, that allows us to move on to ordinances for a first reading, and I'll ask the clerk to give the first reading of ordinances.
