City Council Meeting   11/18/2013

Music playing

you

Thank you.

We have a treat for us to start our city council meeting today and I would like to introduce

This is Rose Williams and David Smatresk.

So Rose, would you like to start with reading first?

Yes, please.

He is going to be reading his poem on page 114.

Thank you.

Welcome him.

I'd also just like to mention that I had the opportunity, I couldn't stay for the whole thing, but I did come to the poetry reading class in high school, and it was really good, and I really enjoyed it, so thank you for doing that every year.

The former director.

Thanks for being here.

So we look forward to seeing you there.

I would hope it's actually on our homepage and perhaps it can be.

And if you go to Neighborhood Services, Neighborhood Services Department, go to them and they can register you also.

It's really, really fun.

Ms. Szakos?

That'd be great.

Ms. Cameron?

Come downtown for the holidays.

and Ms. Galvin will read and then we have a moment of silence after that.

Thank you.

Can we have a moment of silence in their memory?

Mayor Huja, would you like me to read the appointees to the boards?

Santa, I understand, is coming and I hope that you will all come as well.

But anyhow, you can look it up.

Get a prize.

So anyhow, just look it up on the city website, City Office of Economic Development.

That's my motion.

Second.

Thank you, Mr. Jones.

970-3110 to RSVP for the job summit.

And first person to sign up is Rose Williams.

Good evening, my name is Rose Williams and I live at 305 Meade Avenue.

And I like the downtown market because it's safe, fun, loud, and busy, just like I like it to be.

Thank you.

at Sojourners, United, Church of Christ, Open Affirming Group, movie discussion, refreshments come and we are going to be modeling after a Shenandoah Valley program and actually have a forum of people.

What's the date?

Thank you very much for listening.

John Gooch.

to be the weatherization provider for this area through the Department of Housing and Community Development and I will be coming probably to Mr. Jones around the first of the year to get a letter of support from you folks and I hope that you will provide us with that.

How can people reach you?

Thank you.

The room neck has to be neater.

Thank you.

John Hayden

Thank you.

Lewis Schultz.

That is to honor my request for a hearing and to am I allegations of serious wrongdoing, follow with a full report to the public, take appropriate disciplinary action where necessary and train all city employees to respect citizen civil rights and finally abandon all city claims of rights to private properties that cannot be fully supported by the public record.

Brandon Collins.

Thank you.

I'd appreciate it.

Todd Niemeyer.

Thank you.

And this is an opportunity to make that gateway somehow connect two halves of a city that have been split apart for too long.

Thanks.

So I'll just wait until the end.

Rose Williams talked about farmers' market on the current location.

I just wanted you to know that council is considering request for proposal for development on the current site in the coming months.

Things happening on public land in the city would have to have the City Council, whether we are doing the Housing Authority or not, would have to have our participation, so I'm preparing myself for that by reading a lot, but personally I do not feel ready for that.

Other comments for the members of the Council?

Thank you.

Later on in the press release it says the suspects were described
