The combined police and fire training grants total nearly $7 million, demonstrating substantial state support for enhancing the skills and capabilities of the city's emergency response personnel. These training incentive programs are designed to improve service delivery and maintain professional standards within both departments.

All financial items were presented as resolutions requiring council approval, indicating they went through the standard municipal approval process for contracts and grant acceptances.

## Contested Items

The meeting featured one contested item that resulted in a split vote among council members.

**Contract Modification No. Two with Palmer Engineering**

The council considered a resolution authorizing a contract modification with Palmer Engineering, which generated disagreement among members. While the majority of the council supported the modification, Councilmember Moloney opposed the measure.

The resolution ultimately passed with a 14-1 vote, with Councilmember Moloney casting the sole dissenting vote. The specific reasons for Councilmember Moloney's opposition were not detailed in the available meeting materials, nor were the particular terms or scope of the contract modification with Palmer Engineering.

This represented the only item during the July 5, 2022 meeting that did not receive unanimous council support, highlighting a rare instance of division among the governing body on the proposed contract changes.

## Ordinances – Second Reading

[timestamp: 06:00]

The City Council conducted second readings on several ordinances during this agenda item, with key participation from Council members Ellinger and Plomin.

The ordinances under consideration included:

• Amendments to Chapters 21 and 22 of the Code of Ordinances
• Suspension of Water Quality Management Fee adjustment
• Authorization for the issuance of Industrial Revenue Bonds

Council members Ellinger and Plomin were the primary speakers during the discussion of these ordinances. The second reading process allows for final consideration and potential amendments before formal adoption.

The Water Quality Management Fee adjustment suspension was among the notable items, which would temporarily halt planned fee increases for water quality services. The Industrial Revenue Bond authorization would enable the city to issue bonds for qualifying industrial development projects.

All ordinances presented for second reading were approved by the Council. The approval of these measures completes the required two-reading process for ordinance adoption, allowing the amendments to Chapters 21 and 22 of the municipal code to take effect, the water fee adjustment to be suspended as specified, and the Industrial Revenue Bond issuance to proceed according to the established parameters.

The successful completion of second readings on these ordinances represents routine legislative business for the Council, addressing both municipal code updates and financial mechanisms for city operations and development initiatives.

## Resolutions – Second Reading

[timestamp: 10:00]

The council conducted second readings on several resolutions during this agenda item. The resolutions under consideration included acceptance of various grants for waste tire disposal, fire training incentives, and police training incentives, as well as contract modifications.

Key speakers during this portion of the meeting included Ellinger and Plomin, who participated in the discussion of these resolutions.

The resolutions addressed multiple municipal functions:

• **Waste tire disposal grants** - Acceptance of funding to support proper disposal of waste tires
• **Fire training incentive grants** - Financial support for fire department training programs  
• **Police training incentive grants** - Funding to enhance police department training initiatives
• **Contract modifications** - Various adjustments to existing municipal contracts

Following the second reading process, all resolutions presented during this agenda item were approved by the council. The approval of these resolutions allows the municipality to accept the grant funding and implement the specified contract modifications, supporting waste management, emergency services training, and other municipal operations.

The second reading process represents the final step before formal adoption of these resolutions, indicating that the council had previously reviewed these items during first reading at an earlier meeting. The successful passage of these resolutions enables the city to move forward with the grant-funded programs and contract adjustments outlined in each resolution.

All those in favor, say aye. Thank you. Anyone opposed? All right, that motion passes. There are communications for your information only. There are no police or fire disciplines. And now's the time for council announcements. Council Member Plowman. Thank you, Mayor. I meant to mention that in the previous meeting, but this Saturday is Bluegrass Green Source's second annual River Fest, And it's from 9 to 12 and it's actually on the spot or very close to the spot that we're going to have our new park, it's at Proud Mary's. So I wanted to announce that and they're going to have, you can try canoes and kayaks and stand up paddle boards and they'll have them all there and you can go to their website to find out more. But that's this Saturday, 9 to 12, Kentucky River. Thank you. Council Member Maloney. Thank you, Mayor. I just want to echo some of my colleagues over the weekend, especially I went to the moon dance a few times this weekend. Parks and Rec did a tremendous job. And TD Young, he was the best show of the whole thing. I see where he got nominated for the Hall of Fame. And I went to the Patriotic. I want to thank Parks and Rec and the police especially. They were even nice to me. I was glad to see that. And fire and everybody off from street to moat to solid waste, everybody worked hard in this heat. And Mayor, they did a tremendous job, and I appreciate the whole work they did. Thank you. Thank you. Council Member James Brown? Thank you, Mayor. I just wanted to acknowledge the folks that are retiring that we talked about earlier with Director Maxwell and his retirement. One of the things I really like about city government and the employees are we have a lot of good employees and it's real disappointing when folks retire. You get to know them, you get to work with them and then they leave city government and it's good for them but then bad for us because we got to meet somebody new. So I wish him well and then I'll spend a little time talking about Glenda George. I actually knew Glenda before I got on council from her involvement in the community. We attend church together and working with her in the law department. In the law department, we have a very good law department. We have a lot of very smart attorneys in the city. They don't always tell us what we want to hear. They do a good job of telling us no and smiling after they tell us no. But I appreciate the advice they give. I appreciate the job that they do. And I think Glenda is one of the best of the best. And I think she summed it up best when she said this is like family. I think us as council members and folks that work here know that and having to leave or retiring to take on the next chapter of your life is a big step. She did a great job saying that tonight without busting into tears, but just wish her the best in retirement and thank her for the service that she has provided for over 27 years to this community. So thank you. Thank you, Mayor. Thank you. Council Member Lamb. Thank you, Mayor. And I was going to do this at work session, and then I thought I'd wait until here. I just wanted to tell my colleagues how wonderful that your all support to the Lexington History Museum has done. They did a Lex Talk this past weekend at the Rankin House between 2 and 4. They had four different sessions, 30-minute tours, and three of the board members. I went over at 3.30. I waited until the end of the last session to see if they were still standing. And they sold out. They had a waiting list, which I thought was really cool. And three of the Board of Trustees members, they actually were doing the tour, and they did the talks. And I was so proud, and they were really pleased. I don't know if any of my colleagues got to go, but they were really pleased that I showed up and that I was there. And I ran into some people, a lady that used to work in Deem 18 years ago, and she and her family were so thrilled that they had opened up the Rankin House so that they could come in and learn about it. And it was really heartwarming to see so many people from the public that were interested and engaged. And I just want to thank you all, my colleagues, again, for believing in this project and for supporting it because one person doesn't do it. We all do it together. And I just want you all to know how much this Board of Trustees, and they have called me, they've emailed me, they've messaged me, and they said thank you all for believing in us, thank you for giving us this opportunity. So I just want to make sure that I share the messages that I'm receiving with you all in your support and also with our administration in the support that we're getting there. And I just think good things are going to be happening. So thank you so much. Thank you. Does anyone else have a council announcement? All right. Is anyone signed up for public comment? No. All right. I'll entertain a motion to adjourn. Thank you. All those in favor, say aye. We are adjourned. Thank you. Thank you.
