Number 5, 2025 and special resolution numbers 12 through for 14 2025 Joseph h Hawks. It Mayor MR. PRESIDENT this concludes official communications. Thank you. MADAM Clerk. The next item on agenda is the adoption of the agenda. And I believe the counselor Jesse Brown has a motion. Yes, thank you, MR. PRESIDENT. Counselors, you should have proposal. Number
2.31 on your desk in front of you. And I regret that there's a spelling error and a person's name. But this I'm requesting a suspension of the rules to at this to the agenda tonight under our municipal code. We're required to vote on whether or not we should have a an election to remove officers of the City County Council. And so will we be voting on tonight is whether in the AUGUST full Council meeting on AUGUST. 11th, we should take 2 separate items included on the agenda. The first being a roll call vote taken to determine whether council PRESIDENT Vop mostly should be removed from his office as PRESIDENT. The City County Council and second item would be a roll call. Vote, be taken to determine whether council vice PRESIDENT Ali Brown shall be removed from her office as vice PRESIDENT
Of the City County Council. Happy to explain this during debate. If I get a second. The motions that moved is there a second? Coming counselors? Heart. Thank PRESIDENT. Honestly. I guess I'm I'm curious, you know, having seeing some of these committee meetings that have happened in the past couple of weeks where the the counselor who just second to this crystal Carlino consequently, no, have put out a similar statement and then retracted that statement when she says she didn't have proof. Of this of anything that, you know, MAY correlate up put counselor Brown is making this motion for. And so my question to council Brown is. Do you have any new information or proof reasons? Why are calling 4 this motion? I appreciate that little right of the frame permit. Answer that I laid out case so to speak. And a constituent newsletter around the time of the council meeting last month. Essentially, I don't
have a smoking gun, but I've been smoke that I have a lot of concerns that have not been answered. We've had council staff members refused to answer questions about whether agreement with Fisher Phillips was actually extended who signed it where the documents for that all this seems suspicious to me. And I think it would be easy enough to answer my questions, too. Yeah. Put me at ease. That said, I frankly feel that after 4 separate incidents of our PRESIDENT Removing people for exercising their First Amendment rights, we should allow another counselor to take that role. Very Any additional comments encounters? Thank you, MR. PRESIDENT know this is a column that said pretty says pretty often in this chamber. But I was actually not planning on speaking on this proposal but maybe just to clarify where a kind of what's
been going through my mind over the past couple days is we found out that this is going to be coming. Coming before us. I don't think anybody is pleased with how the last council meeting went. I'm certainly not can speak for any other person in this body. But don't think our PRESIDENT Was pleased with how one thing. I think everybody has a lot regret with how that went down. So I think people are allowed to make mistakes here. And there. Right. My vote tonight. Is in no way a reflection of the PRESIDENT Of our body. I think it's more a reflection on the vice PRESIDENT Of our body when this whole investigation committee was being discussed at the beginning. And it was said from the desk there, the vice PRESIDENT. But they don't trust Republicans. And this investigating committee process. In hindsight. Republicans have a mess this
up. Alright, additional Counselors. All right, hearing none. Let's proceed to the board for a vote. Motion fails 4 yeas to 20 nays. I believe we also have CHAIRMAN Robbins, a motion.

further testimony hearing from all want to speak to committee voted 7, 5, to send this back to full committee with the Dew recommendation. I so move MISTER PRESIDENT. I do believe that leader heart has 2 motions to amend proposal. 1, 6, 4, Yeah, thank you, MR. PRESIDENT Before make the motion. I to make a brief comment on one. 64 specifically just there is some there's some unanswered questions. I think that I went back and watched both. But video recording from that committee from both parties. And so I just want to as the funds move forward, what I would encourage as a couple things, one that we've we replace the person of that
committee since the standing CHAIRWOMAN Step down. I believe that requires your authority to call that committee together in the committee will select their new chairperson. The reason I'm requesting that is. There are are unanswered questions. I know both parties have to Fisher Phillips. I think it's due to receiving a report without being able to read it and then reading it. And then coming up with questions, which is a very logical thing to do. And so I want I want to provide that opportunity to the representatives in this body who represent the people of Indianapolis and specifically making sure that, you know, the dollars that we're spending here on this is a big chunk of money that, you know, we make sure we're getting what is being paid for is what was assigned to that
contract. And finally, I would ask that that committee put out their final report, an addendum, former whatever that MAY look like after seeing an information. And that's that's my my request in the 2300 k now as my motion here at the last council meeting, I made a motion. To amend section 16 of proposal. One 64. And during that discussion of my motion night inadvertently verbally modified written motion that was then and is now in front of you. And I would like to take up clarify my intent by asking the council to ratify the written motion that was approved last time and vote on what has been now provided to you in writing the portion that I verbally modified last time, MR. PRESIDENT, I move that the sea or the council ratify our previous vote on
Section 16. That really did the word and and the final sentence. After the word contract, the words and the Office of Public Health and Safety return to the City County Council with ad tale proposal regarding the Indianapolis Foundation scope of work, MR. PRESIDENT, I so move. Motion's properly moved and seconded. The comments and counselors. COUNCILMAN Wilson. Everyone Thank you. MISTER PRESIDENT, as I stated last month, I encourage my colleagues to support this amendment. I think it's good public policy by transparency. So encourage my colleagues to support. Thank you. Very CHAIRMAN Thank you, MR. PRESIDENT just to Echo
Councilor Neilson's comments. We've spent millions of dollars particularly through covid money. And some would accuse us of just throwing it at problems. This is means of. Measuring our effectiveness and the efficacy of these programs. Posing metrics into the system. They will not see their money into. They proved us these programs are effective and we know where the money's going. So I would encourage both parties to support this wholeheartedly. Thank you very good. Council member. Thank you, MR. Agreed with what my fellow colleagues here said thus far. I think it's important to note that by no means to Apple's plan on
trying to skate on this bill and by any stretch of the imagination, it's more. So we want to know we're getting what we pay for what we were contractually obligated to receive such as the body of work that went into this having not seen any that and also as heart said, that we would like to have enough to know ask questions of the of the law firm that conducted investigation. I think this gives an opportunity to bring them back to the table and answer some of these questions before we are fully releasing these funds and I will be some points and and thank you, MISTER PRESIDENT, great. Thank you much additional counselors. Seeing Let us proceed to the board for a vote. PRESIDENT. County k 2.
The motion to carries a 24 to 0. I believe lead to heart. You have a second motion. Yes, was present. Thank you. My next amendment is to codify whatever. But we asked of the council at the last meeting, this pause the final transfer of funds phs until after the office has presented to the council, the Indianapolis fun. It foundation scope of work, MR. PRESIDENT, I move to amend Section 17 of proposal, 1, 6, 4, but adding the underlying language of this transfer to the county general Fund shall take effect after the Office of Public Health and Safety Return to the City County Council with a detailed proposal regarding the Indianapolis Foundation's scope of work, MR. PRESIDENT,
I so move. Bush's improperly moved and seconded becoming some counselors councils and thank you, MR. PRESIDENT and thank you. Leader are are offering this amendment. Well. I appreciate the work that you put into this. I I believe the amendment redundant when looking at a proposal, 16. We have reparations wrote, we are doing and oversight role to make sure those funds are dispersed correctly and So I believe this was just you know, is unnecessary and would create and unnecessary administration on releasing the funds. And my Collins about no, thank you. Additional Counselors, Pennsylvania. Thank you. MISS Present. They I don't know if we're actually allowed to ask companies clarify what they just said. But I guess I'm a little confused how something
could add additional administrative work, but yet also be redundant. Seems like that's kind of contradictory I don't know if council Nielsen wants to clarify any more. I think in resident. Absolutely. So we think about concentric circles right? They can both be achieving the same thing within one another. So I think if the objective was to do something like this, this amendment should have been offered a first. This amendment essentially will supercede the previous amendment matter. At extra level. Complexity is already provided and the previous amendment with council adopted. Thank you, MR. PRESIDENT, appreciate the feedback there. I guess I would just if you. If you want additional transparency and oversight, I would encourage you to support this amendment. Thank you. Any additional
comment and counselors? All right, seeing seeing none mrc to the board for a vote. The motion fails 5 yeas and 19 nays. I believe Lewis has a motion to divide the question of people's 1, 6, 4, Yes. Thank you so much, MR. PRESIDENT. I move that we divide question. I move that we divide pose a number one. 64 question one. As for the dollars for the elevation grants. Question go ahead and pull out the dollars for the investigative Committee question 3 would be the remaining that the school. All right, Poppy motions and probably moved and seconded. Are there other comments from counselors? All right. But especially to the board for a vote on the division of the question. Motion carries 24 to
0. So let's proceed to the board for a vote on question. One appropriations for the Office of Public Health and Safety for the purpose of funding elevation grants as set forth in Section 16, 17 proposal, 1, 6, 4, Sorry, MISTER PRESIDENT Mission Tips stands. I service ii of not for profit. Very good. Thank you. Counselors were going Yes, you can vote again. That would be available. Thank you. For question. One. Motion carries 18 yeas, 5 nays. One abstention. Let's proceed to the board for a vote on question 2 appropriations for the purpose legal services forth in Section 6, 7, a proposal, 1, 6, 4, MR. PRESIDENT, can I explain my vote? From the last one. Not just for that, both that
proceed. Thank you, MR. PRESIDENT, I want to thank Lena Lewis providing a question on this item as I will be voting no on this section but do want to support the rest of the spring fiscal. I want to urge my colleagues to vote no on this item. What this is doing is proposing that we use our taxpayers money, some $300,000 of it in order to pay for sure Phillips for work product that does not appear to yet meet the requirements set forth a general resolution. 41 taxpayers are understandably furious about what has every appearance of being an attempt to cover up were sabotaged the investigation and it is wildly inappropriate to pay Fisher Phillips for work that contained multiple errors. Of fact it was for them or not done according to our written requests on JUNE 9th an email to our general counsel, that e-mail asked and I quote
myself based on the contract info I could find online. It appears is that the contract was for $150,000 with a scope ending APRIL 30th of 2025. It also appeared as though Fisher Phillips was supposed to check in when they were at 60% completion for their work. Was there an authorized extension for this contract? If so, who signed on behalf of the Council? Multiple investigative Committee members have indicated to me that they had no knowledge of the extension, end quote. These questions have gone unanswered nearly a month later after repeated follow-ups, Bres Owsley has been included in these follow-ups and has also remained unresponsive when taxpayers and counselors alike are kept in the dark about important matters like these leadership is failing. Thank you. Any additional comments. All right. Let's proceed to
