But, uh, just to say that she is a model for those, uh, to, to demonstrate to those how to age gracefully. And we have many of those special seniors in our community. And if you know of a special senior who also demonstrates graceful aging, I would encourage you to go to the Sanders-Brown Center on Aging website to make a nomination for that person. Whereas, starting a second year at age 60, Virginia received her master's degree in social work from the University of Kentucky in 1982, and in 1984 became a family counselor at UK's Sanders-Brown Center on Aging. ... and whereas Mrs. Bell witnessed the subjective care approach that met only to basic needs of Alzheimer's patients, and soon realized that people suffering from dementia need to be connected, known, respected and loved. And whereas, Ms. Bell pioneered the Best Friends model to help family members, friends and staff members maintain a loving, positive relationship with victims of dementia, in turn making patients feel safe, secure and valued. And whereas, Ms. Bell and her colleague, David Troxel, co-authored the acclaimed The Best Friends Approach to Alzheimer's Care that presented an innovative way to care for those with Alzheimer's, and soon followed with collaborations on The Best Friend Book of Alzheimer's Activities, The Best Friend's Staff and A Dignified Life; whereas The Best Friends Approach uses positive strategies that build on older adults' strengths and abilities and offers the flexibility to adapt to all individuals at all points along the ever-changing continuum of the disease process; and whereas The Best Friends Approach is celebrating its 25th anniversary; and whereas Ms. Bell, now in her late 80s, has crusaded for victims of Alzheime- Alzheimer's disease at conferences around the world, and in dozens of publications as, and is in still great demand as a speaker. Now, therefore, be it resolved by the Lexington-Fayette County, Fayette Urban County Government that the Council of the Lexington-Fayette Urban County Government upon the 25th anniversary of Best Friends Approach to Alzheimer's Care hereby extends its gratitude and compliments, and honors Virginia Bell for her many outstanding contributions that have helped countless Alzheimer's patients and their families and friends, that this resolution shall become effective on the date of this passage.

Uh, are there any announcements? That brings us down then to the public comment section. Mr. McCarthy, do you care to comment tonight? For the record, my name is Bernard McCarthy. My address is 515 Harry Street. First off, one of my coworkers, a lady by the name of Elizabeth McCullough, asked me to point out that she strongly objects to the proposed stormwater fees. Okay, having mentioned that, I fulfilled the promise I made yesterday to her. The main thing I wanna preach at you guys on is instead of changing one-way streets to two-way, if you really like two-way streets that much, I think you should try extending some of the streets that are already two-way. Extend 5th Street westward from its current endpoint across Eastern State to intersect Newtown Pike. Extend Jefferson Street northward to connect to Russell Cave. Extend Midland Avenue from 3rd Street further out to hook onto Magnolia Street, and then extend Magnolia Street to the corner of Floyd Drive and Loudon Avenue. And I would suggest that Young Drive and Ashland Avenue should both be extended to form a four-way intersection, where the, at that curve where 3rd Street currently becomes Winchester Road. And I thi-, I think we do need all the road capacity we can get, especially if you wish to pack more activities into downtown. Thank you, Mr. McCarthy. Does anyone else wish to address the council? Uh, Chief Branham? Thank you, Mayor. Um, I'm here in the matter of firefighter Mark Bramlage, who's been charged with being absent without leave. Um, administration's recommended a written reprimand, and Firefighter Bramlage has signed that and agreed to that. Move approval. Second. I have a motion by Council member Gordon and a second by Council member Meyers that the recommended, uh, discipline be approved. Any discussion? Council member Lane? Uh, Chief. Uh, would it be all right if I asked why he was absent without approval? Um... Let me get, I'm not sure. We've had a couple, and I'm not sure which one this was. Okay. So I can get my notes, and I'll get that back with you. All right. Thank you, sir. If that's okay. Thank you. Any further- It's the first offense. Any further discussion? All in favor then of approving the recommended discipline, please indicate by saying aye. Opposed, no. Motion carries. Is there anything further? Do I hear a motion to adjourn? So moved. Second. Council member Stennett has moved to adjourn. Council member somebody- Second. Uh, Crosby has seconded that motion. All in favor, please say aye. Opposed, no. Motion carries. Thank you.
