The debate centered on concerns about the ordinance's scope and clarity, with particular attention to whether horses were adequately addressed within its provisions. Council members questioned whether the language was sufficiently clear and comprehensive to cover the range of animals and situations intended. The record does not indicate a final outcome or vote result for this item within the extracted data. [timestamp: not available] **Street System Changes** A proposal involving changes to the street system drew opposition from members of the public during the comment period. Residents raised concerns about modifications that would reduce roadway capacity, with the conversion of one-way streets to two-way streets cited as a specific example. Commenters expressed opposition to such changes, suggesting they could negatively impact traffic flow. The extracted data does not specify which streets were under consideration, which council members took positions on the matter, or what the ultimate outcome of the discussion was. [timestamp: not available] Both items reflect broader community and legislative concerns — one about the precision of animal welfare regulations and another about the practical effects of infrastructure changes on street capacity. ## Invocation [timestamp: 01:05] Chaplain Leigh McGrath of Lexington Catholic High School delivered the invocation to open the Council meeting.

And therefore, I move to take from the table and place on the docket for second reading the ordinance authorizing and directing the mayor to execute a purchase agreement with Frankfort Court LLC to acquire real estate for the recycling center. ... for the purchase of a portion of the property located at 2401 Old Frankfurt Pike, St. Louis. Second. We have a motion by Council Member Blues and second by Council Member Myers to take that item from the table and give it second reading. Is there any discussion? Uh, uh, uh, stand corrected, your motions to take from the table are not debatable. So motion is to, uh, take that item from the table and give it second reading. Those in favor, please indicate by saying aye. Aye. Oppose, no. Motion carries. Madam Clerk. Ordinance number 33A. Ord... An ordinance authorizing and directing the mayor on behalf of the Irwin County government to execute a purchase agreement and any other necessary closing documents with Frankfurt Court LLC for the purchase of lots 3 through 9 of the property located at 2401 Old Frankfurt Pike at a cost not to exceed $1,665,950 and appropriating funds pursuant to schedule number 148. Thank you, now is there a motion to approve those resolution, uh, those ordinances? Council Member Blues has made that motion. Do I hear a second? Second. Council Member Lawless has seconded the motion. Is there any discussion? Seeing none, we'll proceed to vote. Uh, Council Member Martin. Thank you, Mayor, I have a question for legal. Looking at item 14 is the ordinance regarding, um, the care and treatment of animals. When this was coming through, I brought to everyone's attention ser- what I thought were some fairly significant deficiencies in this ordinance. And I thought the, the representation was made that there were gonna s- be some effort to try to come up with a second draft in order to address a lot of those problems. Um, also I, th- this ordinance does not, um, it, it's really specifically addressed toward, toward dogs, but, but does not address the other types of animals. Did, did any of that get done, I guess? I don't know. That's the short answer, but my recollection was that the committee that was looking at it wanted to move forward with what we had, and then I don't know that the committee asked us to do anything further. Am I... I see some council members shaking their heads, but I, I mean, if you want, if, if you all would like for us to do something further, we certainly will, but I believe the committee wanted to advance this particular ordinance. I, I just think that the, we, we need a, a higher standard for adopting ordinances than, than is really represented in this. I don't think this is the best effort we could do. Even if we don't change any of the substance of it, it, it contradicts itself and it, and it, um, and, and it's not a, a very well-written ordinance. So, um, I, I guess I have a problem supporting it b- for that reason. I also think that since we are the horse capital of the world, the fact that our animal cruelty ordinance doesn't address horses is a rather serious oversight. So thank you, Mayor. Thank you. Is there any further discussion? Council Member, uh, let's see, Council Member Lawless, then Wayne. Um, first of all, the, um, while our state, um, laws on animal cruelty I don't believe are nearly strong enough, we, and I don't think this is a perfect ordinance because there are some issues we didn't address. Um, horses and bunnies and other animals are in the state statute. And to hold this up when it will pr- give some protection to some animals I think would be a mistake. So I would, while I would like to see it beefed up and we can keep on working on it and have, um, all agree or many of us agree to keep on it, I hope that this will pass today. Thank you. Council Member Wayne. Uh, thank you, Mayor. I, you know, I too, uh, felt like this ordinance needed some improvements on it. Um, I think Council Member Stennet suggested that we go ahead and pass this ordinance, because we do need to look after the, uh, dogs. And it is during the summer, and the temperatures are extremely hot. So I don't have an, an issue with voting for that tonight, but I, I would like to see the legal department immediately work on, um, bringing in a revised ordinance that, um, covers, you know, the horse industry in particular, and is just a little cleaner ordinance than what it's, we're voting on tonight. Mayor? Yes. We will be happy to do that. I, I don't know whether there was sufficient direction at the committee meeting, but if there's some ideas that you all wanna see if we already have those, great. If you don't, we need to see them, and we'll certainly incorporate those into a revised ordinance. Thank you. Coun- Council Member Beard. Oops, sorry. It was already turned on. Um, I think the question about horses and, and like animals probably rises to the level that it needs its own ordinance. There's some very special significant differences between obviously horses and dogs, and for that matter, cows and other farm animals. But, uh, uh, to try to get some kinda omnibus, uh, cruelty law, uh, drafted could take forever. And I agree that horses, especially with us being the horse capital of the world, um, we should be most sensitive to, uh, uh, the care and, and, uh, support of those animals. And, uh, just a thing in the paper today, another incident in... ... uh, nearby counties of, uh, 13 horses being abused by, uh, an owner. And, um, you know, we- I guess we can't worry about the other counties, but we sure can worry about, uh, Fayette County. So I would suggest that we, um, maybe put that i- issue into, um, committee and see if we can't, uh, get something done about that. I'm not sure which is the appropriate committee for that. Is that a... Pardon me? Services, maybe. I would, I would move that that happen. Uh, I think the appropriate time for that motion would be after w- the resolution- Probably so. ... the one that's currently on the floor, so I'll come back to you then. Okay, that's fine. If we could, the motion on the floor now is the approval of the ordinances that received second reading. Council Member Martin. Thank you, Mayor. The problem is that the, the definitions in this ordinance all ref- refer to dogs, but the text of the ordinance refers to animals. It talks about shelters for animals, you go look at the definition of shelters and it's something for a dog. Um, I, I'm willing to support this tonight, but I, I guess on the understanding that we have, uh, an effort to, to redraft this ordinance to, to, to correct some of these deficiencies 'cause I just, I, I have a problem voting for something that is this inconsistent with itself. Um, thus, apart from the, you know, the policy of it, w- I just think we need to do a better job as we adopt ordinances here, here at the city. So, um, if we can do that, then I, I guess I'll support this for the here and now, uh, but we need to, we should clean this up. Thank you, Mayor. Council Member Gorton. Thank you, Mayor. Um, I certainly respect your opinion on that, Council Member Martin. Uh, the council did vote to put this on the docket for an up or down vote tonight. And so it was, it did go through the process that we normally have, uh, to put an item on the docket, so, um, you know, this stands alone and any future ordinance that would apply to other animals would also stand alone and go through the same sort of process. So it's here because the council voted it here. And so I, I'm very supportive of it, and I hope that someone will make a motion to do the future one. Someone call a- All right, the motion on the floor then is the approval, is, is to approve the, uh, ordinances receiving second reading tonight. Any further discussion? Seeing none, we'll proceed to vote. Those in favor, please vote aye electronically, those opposed vote nay. And Madam Clerk, please call the roll. Mr. Blues. Yes. Ms. Crosby. Yes. Mr. Ellinger. No. Oh. Ah. Is this problem? Yes, this is one. Thank you. Yes, and then no on 33A. I'll denote that. No on 32, no on 33A, yes on the rest. No on 33A, and I'd like to explain my vote on that later, whenever it's appropriate. Mr. Ellinger, you said no on 33 and 33A? 32 and 33A. Thank you. You're welcome. And Mr. Gray, you said no on? 33A. 33A. Ms. Henson. Yes. Ms. James. Yes. Mr. Lane. Yes. Mr. Law- Ms. Laws. Yes. Mr. Martin. Yes. Mr. McCord. Yes. Mr. Meyers. Yes. Mr. Stennet. Yes. And Mr. Beard. I. Thank you. Thank you. All, uh, did you call Council Member Gorton's name? Oh, I'm sorry, Ms. Gorton. Hi. Sorry about that. Mr. G- uh, Mr. Gray, uh, spoke up and I just skipped right over it. Sorry. All right. Um, Council Member Beard, I think you were interested in making a motion. Um, I would move that we place into, uh, services committee, uh, the issue of, um, uh, as Council Member Martin m- mentioned maybe of, uh, amending and/or writing new ordinances that apply more specifically to, uh, th- the type of animals we're talking about. And, um, with s- special emphasis on horses, mules, ponies, donkeys, you know, and, and th- like animals, I guess, that, uh, we, we pride ourselves in, in, uh, supporting. So, um, I'd like to see that go into services and let them hammer it out. Do I hear a second? I second. I have a second by Council Member Henson. Uh, any discussion on the ma- on the motion to refer the matter to, uh, services committee? Then all in favor of referring, um, that matter to the services committee, please indicate by saying aye. I. Oppose, no. Motion carries. All right, Madam Clerk, if you would give, um, first reading to the ordinances entitled to first reading.

Um, um, James Baker Hall passed away today.

These appointments were mistakenly included in the mayor's report and I'm so moved. Second. Thank you. Um, is the motion to rescind debatable? No, I don't think so. I don't think so. All right.

Council Member Martin. Thank you, Mayor. This was a clerical error, uh, during the work session. Uh, this, the motion to remove these items were, were made and seconded and did pass. It was mistakenly included in the doc- in the mayor's report, uh, by, as a clerical error, and it was voted on as such at the end of a, as I recall, a very long meeting. And so, um, the motion is to rescind the appointments to the Picnic With The Props Commission and the Services, Social Services Advisory Board to conform to the actions previously taken by the council at work session. Thank you. Does anyone else wish to address that particular motion? I have some people on the list here, but the system seems to be bringing people up and down. Okay. All right. Um, those in favor then of the resolution, uh, of the motion to rescind those items, please indicate by saying aye. Opposed, no. Motion carries. Thank you. Now, Council Member, uh, Blues. Thank you, Mayor. I t- I just wanted to, uh, to add to, uh, Vice Mayor Gray's, uh, remarks on the passing of, of my former colleague, uh, uh, uh, Jim Baker Hall. He was also the Poet Laureate of Kentucky for, uh, for two years. He was a distinguished poet, a fiction writer, photographer, uh, of, uh, of great talent, and was part of a, of a, of a distinguished, uh, Kentucky writing group, uh, and, um, um, deservedly nationally renowned, including, uh, uh, Gurney Norman, Bobby Ann Mason, uh- Ed McLanahan. ... Ed McLanahan, and of course, Wendell Berry. So, uh, he will be missed and, and, uh, uh, we send our condolences to, uh, uh, to Marianne, his wife, who is also, also a published novelist, uh, and he will be missed. Thank you, Mayor. Thank you. If there are no further announcements, we'll proceed to public comment. I have two individuals who have indicated a desire to speak this evening. The first is Marianne Fugate. Ms. Fugate, if you'll step to the podium, you'll have three minutes to address the council. Thank you. Thank you. My name is Marianne Fugate. I live at 1773 Yorktown Road in Lexington. I'm in District 11, and I have a brief presentation. I'm on the board of Speak Out Rescue, also called, SOAR. I just wanted to tell you a little bit about our group. We're a nonprofit group that speaks out on behalf of chained, abused, and neglected animals. We provide free fencing to low-income families who want to take their dog off the chain. We also find indoor homes for chained dogs whose owners no longer want them. This is Dora. She was our first rescue. All of these dogs that I'm gonna show you are in Lexington. This is Rock in Lexington. He lived chained for many, many years. We built him a new enclosure. He's chain-free. This is Reaper. He lived chained. We built him a, a new enclosure. He's in a yard now, and his family's very happy about it. We support the new Care and Treatment of Animals ordinance, and we're very glad that it passed tonight. However, this new law will not prevent dogs from being chained for life. We urge the council to pass an ordinance that limits chaining and sets a minimum enclosure size for dogs kept outdoors. Even with a new care and treatment ordinance, the dogs in the following photos and many more like them in Lexington will continue to live on chains for their entire lives. District 11. District 9. District 1. This is Lucky. This is Sherman, District 8. Lhasa Apso in District 2. All of these owners have refused free fences from SOOR. They want to keep their dog on the chain for life. This is Lady, she's 15 years old. Pork Chop, District 11. Socks in District 2, he's a beagle. Serena, Jeep, in District 12... District 1, District 10. This Rottweiler bit- bit one of our volunteers, um, even though she had permission to go on the property and give him some straw. She had to go to the hospital. There were 1,130 dog bites in Fayette County, uh, over an 18-month period, which means 62 per month or two per day. Chained dogs are three times as likely to bite as dogs who do not live chained. And we also have a problem with dogs being kept in extremely small pens. That's why we're also asking council to pass a minimum enclosure space law. Ms. Fu- Ms. Fugate, you have about 10 seconds. Okay. These beagles, uh, live permanently in that cage. Over 1,000 Lexington voters signed our petition asking council to pass a chaining law. If you have any questions, please go to our website. Thank you. Thank you very much for your presentation. Well done. And Mr. McCarthy. For the record, my name is Bernard McCarthy. My address is 515 Harry Street. I want to say first and foremost that I oppose doing anything that would in any way reduce the capacity of our street system. Specifically, I think parts of Resolution Number 86 ought to be 86ed, the proposals for changing all of our one-way streets to two-way, most of which need to stay one way for the sake of capacity. Second, I object to the- any narrowing of Limestone Street under- as part of the so-called Streetscape Project that's going to have a piece of it dug up for, they say, something like four months. And I even more strenuously object to the proposal that was in today's Herald Leader for closing a block of Mill Street. It's bad enough to close any part of any street, but someone here couldn't be content with, say, taking a piece off one end or the other. They have to take a block out of the middle of the street so that it renders the rem- it chops the remainder of the street into two separate disconnected pieces that would be far less useful. And furthermore, since all of these things cost money and tax revenue is in short supply, in addition to road capacity being in short supply, I think that for you guys to do anything that wastes both tax revenue and road capacity in one fell swoop is positively outrageous. We need all the traffic handling capacity we can get. The groups that seem to worship downtown as if downtown were God seem to forget the original reasons for trying to resurrect downtown 30 or so years ago were because most of the existing streets that we have funnel towards downtown. And at the time, it was considered more practical to get downtown to be a destination for more people instead of having to tear down neighborhoods to link the suburbs to each other, which I still think that we need more linkage between the outlying areas, but we definitely need to keep the capacity we've got in downtown, and we need to add to it at every chance. You shou- Anytime the house burns down or gets nibbled to the ground by termites or blown up by Osama bin Laden, if a street dead-ends that could then be lengthened across that space, you should lengthen the street rather than letting someone build a house back. I know that that involves spending some money buying right of way, but I think it's worth doing. Thank you, Mr. McCarthy. Does anyone else wish to address the council? Seeing none, do I hear a motion that we adjourn? So moved. Councilmember, uh, uh, Crosby has moved we adjourn. Vice Mayor Gray seconded. All in favor, please say aye. Aye. Opposed, no. Motion carries. Thank you.
