Correct. >> Okay. All right. I think we're live at this point. Uh let's start the meeting. U you uh I really it's hard to see much of anybody because it's on my phone.
All right. So, um I'm having flashbacks to co. Okay. This is the ordinance committee meeting. Today is Tuesday, October 28th, 2025. This meeting is conducted as a virtual meeting with proceedings broadcast on the media outlets provided at the links
on this agenda which is below. Um, we're all here this evening. So, we do have the vote. I I'll just do the roll call. We have voting members uh Selena Reyes who's here. I'll show the camera. Mr. Chair, um, Mr. Del Rosario is here. Here we are. One, two, three. And the
chair is present. Uh at this point, um we do have a flag somewhere. So, we're going to take this on a chance to stand up and say the pledge of allegiance. I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America to the republic for
which it stands, one nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all. Thank you. Uh, do you have your packet? I think I told I think I stole took somebody's package.
>> You have yours? >> Okay, we'll figure it out. We supposedly have minutes, which I don't see. So, that we will skip over because I don't see them readily handling readily available. Uh we as we typically do counselors, we typically
will take um we'll take our city employees first. They have put in a full day. Uh and so we're going to start off with u the two items that the city attorney is here and then the one item that the the chief
assessor is here for. So in only in this order uh the authorization to post advertise and fill the finance officer position more than 6 months 39525. Uh Mr. Hootin, you're you're here for that one and Mr. Ruiz as well.
>> I am I'm covering for the HR director who unfortunately couldn't be here tonight. She has been busy with the um police interviews. So um I'm covering for her. Um, and the the title is a little inaccurate in that this is this
position is not to reactivate a six-month position. It's to rename a current position to this title. >> Okay. >> Um, and Mr. Ruiz will will tell you a little about the position.
Give me one second. I got to pull this up if you don't mind, Mr. Elise. And welcome and thank you for danger. >> This is doc number 395 25. >> Correct. Aha.
I do have my I got the stuff back there. 395. Hang with me one more second. Got it. Are we all set? Mr. Ruiz, why don't you go right ahead? >> Sure. So, uh, good evening, counselors. Um so I'm here today cuz um uh we I have a a position in the office that's called
office supervisor and I would like to um uh change the name to financial officer. Um so that financial officer um basically is doing all the duties that I'm going to name off right now. Um you know they uh do all the financial operations the uh budget uh accounting
procurement any uh financial reporting. Um the person right now does you know they they prepare you know all annual reports they work with the clerks. So the main the main duties added to this position is going to be that they're going to supervise the three clerks in the office.
So it was um it was added to the budget. Um it is in the budget. So we're going to eliminate supervisor and add financial officer. That's what we're looking for. Okay. Is there a different um is there a different salary range with this as well?
>> Yes. Yes. So the the salary range is um it's going to be a difference of $14,000 >> for ann annually of the position that's now office supervisor. >> Okay. >> So which was approved by which which which uh which was approved in our
budget. Okay. I don't have any questions, but I'm I I doubt I'll be supporting it this evening, but I will I don't want to keep it here with this committee. I don't I want to keep it up uh bring it up to the full council so we can all vote on. So, I'll support that. Uh I will tell you, does anybody want to speak on its behalf or against it? Anyone?
Uh my reservations are very uh something that I usually do at the at the end of a of a of a cycle like this. uh when we approach the end of a term u this is our last this will be for the first meeting in November so we really have two months
um I like to know um at this point I'd like to have a unless it's critical and I'm I'm not sure if this is an absolute critical we got to get this done within the next two months um to have this kind of change um um at this point I I would not be supportive but I would be in
support of tableabling it and revisiting this issue uh we're in a very we're in potentially inflate a state of flux. I don't want to to I'm not I don't want to get political, but I do understand that there could be a change of administrations. There may not be. We could continue with this. And if we do
go with the same administration, we probably all things being equal. Uh this, you know, we would look at this and say, okay, this is the this is something that we think would be better. If there is a change of administration, I I want to be able to let the other folk individuals be able to have a chance to take a look at this, either
agree or not agree with it. So, I've been doing this now. This is not my first potential change of administrations. This is a stance that I've taken consistently over my 20 years. I just feel like I want to on something like this, unless it's critical, I don't I I kind of not want
to move on it. So, uh with that's my concern at this point or my comments on it. This could be a great thing. Uh but I just kind of want to wait. So, >> I understand. >> I don't mind if they're having a motion. If there's a motion to send it up without a recommendation, I could support that. this emotion with the fable I would vote against it. So
councilors know where I stand on that. So, however you want to go, >> I believe you don't give too much option because if you voting in against >> you're two to one opportunity to one. You could go you could make a motion to set up with a favorable if you want to. We love to moving forward any position we had to our community today take a
bench for what you mentioned we be shortly two months we can wait for the next meeting uh to see but I don't know what my colleague think about it >> talking about the political thing I don't like it because >> I don't either that's the way it is
sorry I'm interrupt >> yeah because uh we had the position in our agenda to rename and um the position is baking for the six month already. So I don't like to
hold but if we don't have the boat to move it forward I can >> but the question to the director is there's a there's a treat there's a there's the chairman give you
something that you should use. So, is it critical? That's the question. >> No, it's not critical. No. >> Okay. >> Okay. >> Motion to table. >> You can motion. There's a motion to table. It's rightly made. >> Second. >> And it's improperly second. There's no
discussion. Uh and there's no need to roll call because we're all here. Uh all in favor say I. >> I. >> Oppose. No. It's unanimous. The eyes have it. >> You're welcome. >> Thank you very much, C. >> Thank you. >> You're welcome. >> Uh let's see here. Uh, Mr. Hootton,
you're still here. We lose. All right. So, we're going to go to uh document number uh 41325, the review of the amount of the real estate abatement for disabled veterans. William Collins. Uh 41325.
>> Oh, we have city assessor Vega who is also with us. City Sasha, welcome. >> Uh, good evening, councilors, and uh, thank you for um, having this on the agenda and inviting me to this meeting. Um,
>> so I was invited as a guest uh, to answer a couple questions. So, I'll defer to Victor who we've met a couple times and we met with the mayor this evening. So, uh, he has uh, more detailed information on how the mayor feels about this and how to proceed uh,
moving forward. But I'll I'll be here uh to answer any questions. Um so if you can allow Victor, that'd be great. >> Yeah. So before we even go there, just so we can set the table to refresh ourselves, refresh me as well. This is an opportunity, as I understand it, to go ahead and to provide some um uh some
tax relief, some property tax relief, uh for um service connected disabled veterans, if I understand this correctly, in our city. And what it's looking to do, if I understand this correctly, is to try to be competitive
with other area communities and provide an increase, if you would, in the in the tax um relief. And I don't, unfortunately, what this thing is missing is an actual number. There's no real proposal. All it is is uh is just a bunch of numbers from other communities.
So, in a perfect world, there would be proposals saying we want to have a 500 or 400 and 800 or whatever the dollar amount is. That's our proposal. This doesn't have a proposal number that I'm aware of. All it has is we want something. Um, so but anyway, that's the
that's the the tenor. I do I understand the issue properly >> 100%. >> Yes. Okay. You u articulated it very uh clearly and you know I didn't put this on the uh item agenda but it was long overdue. Um so we do have more context.
Um and um what we're what we've discussed and we can what we can afford um would be the 10% disability for exemptions for veterans uh currently is 400. We're looking to increase that to
800. Um as you know tax bills have been increasing year-over-year. Uh expenses for u especially the uh veterans have been increasing as well. um this is sustainable uh with our current overlay amounts and again Victor has more uh
detail information in the email that I presented to him and also the second one would be the 100% disability uh which is currently $1,000 and the mayor also is an agreement to increase that to $2,000.
So both by 100% uh for the next fiscal year. >> Okay. So, let's go to uh to Director Ortega and then we can come back to you. Uh Chief Assessor Director Ortega, you're with us. >> Yes. Can you hear me? >> Yes, sir. Go right ahead. >> Uh so, so like Alexis said, we spoke
with the mayor and uh he fully supports the increase on the tax abatement uh for 22A from 400 to 800 and 22E from 1,000 to 2,000. Uh this uh like Alexis say this is a long uh overdue. Uh I believe
it's been 30 plus years that this has been touched. Uh and uh the mayor agrees and we agree that this is the the the right move to do when it comes to veterans to ensure that uh uh we support and sustain when it comes to uh the tax
uh amendment increase uh for those two clauses. >> Okay, that's actually good to know. Back to chief assessor of Vega. So, when we talk about tax relief, we're suggesting that if you are a if you are a disabled veteran between a 10 and 99% rating, you
currently receive a $400 abatement. That means if your tax bill is $200 today, you'd be spending $1,600. Is that what that means? It's $400 off of whatever your tax bill is, property tax. Is that what that means? >> Correct. >> Currently, >> yes.
>> Okay. So that so what that does is now if you're within that range up until but not including 100% you now would be $800 essentially a deduction an abatement and if you're 100% is going from $1,000 to $2,000 of an abatement. All right so
just so I'm clear on that. Uh do how are we doing financially? How how I I saw a little bit of the budget and finance committee last night. I think some of this some of this conversation came up but I didn't fully follow it. So tell me, do we have enough money set aside,
if you will, in that account to be able to fund this? And then the question is how how many how many disabled veterans will probably take advantage of this? So how much is this going to I'm going to say cost and that's why they would be impacted by this uh tax relief.
>> That's um some great questions. Uh council of the plant. So every uh each year the uh city councilors in the budget appropriate roughly uh $580,000 in the overly account uh for exemptions for seniors, veterans, uh senior workoff
abatement program and also for any overvaluation for real estate and personal property. Um so the 580 um we've never exceeded that amount for any of those fiscal years that we've um granted these exemptions. Um even when
we increased the senior um a couple years ago we increased the senior exemption from 500 to 750. Uh we we're still within our budget um means. Um the second part of your question was uh currently we have 63 veterans that take advantage of the senior um of the
veterans exemptions for both clauses total. Um, a good segue to to capture uh with those both questions is through the C uh 63 exemptions that we approve or a
minister uh the state reimbures us a certain percentage. Um I don't have that number in front of me but I believe Victor does. So the net um from the city's cost is very minimal. Um so we we
are in our means with the overlay account currently. Uh there's no need to increase that amount. Um you know most of the time when we balance the budget it's deducted from the overlay account. So let's say we start off with $700 every year. Once we start clicking the
button on the recap that overlay account continues to decrease and decrease until we get to a point that the budget is balanced and I never complain about, you know, I should have $700,000 in there. No, it's it is what it is. Um, we are
very um, you know, Jojo Freda taught me best to be very um, tight um, when it comes to overvalue uh, properties. Um, so most of that funds is used for exemptions for again for seniors and uh, veterans. So um, we're we're very
healthy in our overlay reserves and I don't see any need for uh, any increases now or in the near future. Uh and Ramona uh our cafo supports that um that as well. >> Okay. So, just my take away from this is
we before we ask ask all our questions and send us up hopefully with a federal recommendation. My suspicion is that you're saying there's plenty of money in the overlay account. >> Yeah. >> For this. Um and I um have you forecast
h have you forecast for the for the upcoming fiscal year how much of a buffer how much I mean I how close are we to hitting that total you did mention of course that is we're getting mostly compensated by the commonwealth so that's a good thing so it sounds like
this is very negligible the amount of money that we're we're going to have we're going to be impacted. >> Yes. Yes. So the 63 or so exemptions that we approved, I believe total uh net was 37,000 that we distributed from the overlay account, 25,000 of that was
reimbursed by the state. Um so if we double everything that we just mentioned, you're looking at a net of roughly $72,000. Um the state will reimburse us for any additional new um veterans exemptions that come on board, but they will not reimburse us for any additional increase
options that we do locally. So again, >> the 400 um say the state reimbures us u you know 375. I'm going to throw a run round number. I don't have paperwork in front of me. That's the number that we're going to um recapture from reimbursements from the state. Um and
any increases in the number of veterans that come on board. So, we'll get that 375 again, but anything over we will not uh receive. Um again, before the it goes up to the full council or at the full council meeting, I'll have additional
information where as I read in chapter 7, um states that if the bill is, let's say last year's bill, fiscical year 26 is $2,000 and the veteran receives $400, city councilors um opted in locally to
increase it to 800. that that same taxpayer, that veteran's bill goes from 2,000 to 2,200. The veteran will receive the 400 plus the 200. He will not get the entire 800. Again, I need to confirm that because
this is new to me. I was just invited. So, it's not like boom, right from jump. Taxpayers are going to get the 800. They're definitely going to get the 400. Um, but we'll get to see what the impact is on the tax bill. Um so all in all
this is this is a great uh local option that we needed to take advantage years ago and I'm excited to know that you know uh we're doing this and we're doing this to a bunch of other clauses as you mentioned you you uh inspirational in doing clause 41C uh for the seniors uh
of um reducing the s the age from 70 to 65 the amount from 500 to 750 and also we're impactful in the senior workoff abatement program it's increase in that from 500 to a,000. So that's that's great. We're moving in the right direction. >> Okay. Well, all of my count my colleagues, if they have any questions,
I I'll support a favorable recommendation. We can get more questions answered at the full council. But any motions or comments or questions by the committee? >> Question. >> Looking for a motion. >> Motion to send full counsel recommendation. >> Second. >> Motion made, properly seconded. Any
further discussion? Seeing none, I'll call the question. All in favor say I. >> I. >> Oppos? No. EI have it. Thank you, Chief Assessor. We'll see you in a couple weeks. Next week, >> next Thursday, I think. >> Councor, I have Bill Collins here. He's
trying to get on the call, but he's having issues with his phone. >> All right. I'm not You guys muted me. I'm not unmuted. >> I I can hear you now. I I didn't >> No, look, Bloom. No hands. Hi. Yeah,
thank you Mr. Chairman. Thanks uh to all for pushing this through in such a rapid way. Thank you, Mr. Assessa Kappo and uh especially the ordinance committee. But if you go back to one month ago when I put this before you, the whole purpose
was to get this done for this year. Now, if the assessor is still on board, I guess my question is the uh abatement forms are still out there being filled out till December. The abatements have not been applied yet for this year. I
know in one of his points he made and by the way, I was not CCD on any of this information. I got this from a council on point number three that uh the assessor made per statutory guidelines any local increase to exemption amounts
would take effect fiscal year following the council vote but the language if you look at it it says per statutory guidelines I don't believe it's written in stone and I would ask implore the council to let this take effect this
year that was the whole intent if If you remember from my initial letter and the point I made at the last ordinance meeting, the effect is to make us whole just like the other cities and towns already paying the uh doubled amount and
have been for a few years. So we're already in the hole. We're already behind everybody else in the state. You have the figures for all of us around the community. Some pay four times as much. we just want to be treated as equals and be made whole if we have to
wait another year. That's not really making us whole. And it's just part and parcel to the way veterans have been treated in this city all along. We were hoping to uh to get this done this year for veterans and their families and the widows
and uh not to wait until 2027, FY 2027. And now I'm also hearing about uh even though there's plenty of money and the assessor writes himself that um there's no impact on the overall city budget and the term he used just tonight was it was
very minimal and I'm glad to hear that. I'm glad to hear the overlay account is healthy. I guess a question through the chair would be what percentage of the overlay account is being used for veteran abatement? So 63 exemptions I think it was 37,000.
So, so we we go ahead. >> So, we just we already had a vote on this. This is there's more information coming. So, we're going to we're going to we sent up to the full council. There's going to be another I think presentation of more information and they think that's the right time. And now that you mentioned it, I know Chief
Assessor Vega and and Director Ortega are on the line. They are hearing the question and and to get that answer, let's get that answer at the full council meeting. We already had the vote on it. Uh we sent it up as quickly as we possibly could. I mean, I I it's rarely move as fast as we did on this and I'm
I'm thankful. So, we're glad that that the chief assessor came and and director Ortega. So, we're really happy and let's see what we can do, Mr. Collins. I mean, I >> I'm thankful too and I'm encouraged, but >> the whole intent as I I'm just whole
thing again was to get it done for this year. And also, >> this couldn't be the worst time for this to happen. The city council chamber, I guess, is a disaster zone. I don't know when it's going to finally be fixed. Most of the seniors that are disabled veterans don't know how to go on Zoom.
They would rather be there at the meeting to see the council lobby. >> So, uh, unfortunately, they won't have that opportunity, >> but I'll leave you with that. It's only a guideline to increase next fiscal
year. We'd like it done this year. >> Understood, Mr. Collins. >> By the way, that's chapter 2 DAV. It's not really Bill Collins. The clerk put my name on the item because I submitted it very clearly stated on behalf of
chapter 2 DAV Lawrence Mass. So it's really the chapter the DAV chapter's endeavor, not my >> Okay, fair. >> Thanks, Mr. Chairman. >> Fair. No, that's that's a fair that's a fair comment. Thank you. It does say William Collins disabled American
veterans, but it doesn't say on behalf of. So maybe that needs to be clarification. Maria, would you please make note of that on your notes? Uh William P. Collins on behalf of the disabled American veterans. So that title could change when we read it at the full council level. Thank you. >> Okay, we'll do.
>> Thank you. All right, we're going to move on. Thank you, Bill. Uh to the top of the agenda. I don't think there's any other city employees here. I think that's that. So we're going to go to the first police. Oh, police, of course. Duh. Sorry. Um,
>> police. >> Yeah, we have police here. Yeah. Um, >> okay. We That's We just need this, right? Mr. Hagerty, Detective, you're with us. Thank you. >> Yes. >> All right. Let's This I don't think will take long, so let's go through them. Uh,
the first item is that I have is 27125. >> Okay. Allow me allow me to look for that 271. >> Let's see here. I'm sub. Okay, this is a this is a
270. Give me a second. Make sure it's on our agenda first. Na 271. Do you see it? >> Yes. >> Thank you. 27121. Uh 25 one way Chandler Street southbound from Medford Street to
Water Street. Uh you go ahead. >> The uh >> good evening council. The Lawrence Police Department refers this matter to the city engineer and the zoning department. I think it would dramatically impact >> traffic in that area which is mostly a industrial and commercial area
>> um for a traffic study. >> Maria, do we have anything? Do you know that we got anything from them from the engineering office? >> No. Okay. >> Okay. Uh councilors, uh based on an correct recommendation by Mr. Hegger, Detective Heggery is to go ahead and to
maybe remind our friends that at the engineering department that we need a recommendation on this. So, I'm looking for a motion. >> Motion was sent to the um engineering department for an update. >> Second. >> Recommendation. >> Motion made by councilaro, seconded by vice chair raises discussion. See no
discussion I'll call and and we'll we'll table it afterward. See no discussion I'll call. All in favor say I. >> I oppose. No. >> The eyes have it. All right. Next. >> Um engineer.
>> Uh 320 325. Council 323 and 324 are kind of together. Thank you. >> Resident parking on Bay State Road and Water Street. >> Thank you. >> So this is Yeah. Thank you. This is resident parking water street southside from 34 to 82 and 324 is resident
parking Bay State Road West Side 60 ft I guess from Water Street I'm presuming. >> Yes. >> Okay. So uh what's your recommendation on let's start off with 323. unfavorable recommendation at this time
for resident parking on water street. Okay, counselors. Um looking for a motion. >> Motion to center the full council withdraw. >> Motion made. Is there a second? Motion made and properly second. Any further discussion? See none. I'll call the
question. All in favor say I. >> I post oppos. No. >> The eyes have it. One second. draw 324. Go ahead, detective. >> Uh, on favor recommendation for resident
parking on Bay State Road in that portion of Water Street. I spoke to the largest land owner over there. Um, he owns one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, 10 properties over there. >> Um, and he didn't know nothing about the
ordinance to convert that area to resident parking. However, there is no houses on Bay State Road. And that's what the ordinance was for. It's all industrial. So, I don't know withdraw or unfavorable
recommendation from us. I'm looking. Uh, so this one has 34, 36, and 38 Water Street. And the previous one had 34
Water Street, the 282. So it's it's we I guess we just split it up, right? It's one letter. We split it up. >> That's the way they would there was two separate ordinances. Yes. >> Gotcha. Okay. Um, and so, so just so I'm clear, your determination is because on
the Bay State Road that's all commercial, there's really no need for resident parking. There's no residents, >> correct, >> to get parking stickers. Why are we having resident parking? That's I guess that's your point. >> And on the previous one on Water Street, are there residences there?
>> There's I think two houses that he that he owns. Well, there's two two buildings. one he owns which is commercial and the other one is a I think a three tenement that I think he I believe he also owns. Um I think the issue was if I read the email correctly
from councelor Marl Mamar is the uh there was issues with parking with unregistered vehicles. I spoke to um the landlord or the tenant, excuse me, the property owner. He said they had an issue with one of the garages across the
street, but it's since been rectified between inspectional services and um the Lawrence Police Department. I believe officer Yansy went over there and aggressively enforced a lot of the uh parking issues over there. So, I it might be resolved that way, but
nevertheless, there is no houses on Bay State Road >> and the Water Street portion of it because they have a private ownership that's there and that there's no need for it. Is that I'm trying to Am I putting words in your mouth or is that what you you said? I >> I don't think there's a need for the
resident parking for those that area. >> Okay. You heard the recommendation from the police department. Looking for a motion. >> Motion to withdraw. >> Second. >> Motion made by council Rosario. Second by Vice Chair Reyes. Discussion. See no discussion. I'll call the question. All
in favor say I. >> I. >> Post. No. The eyes have it. Next is document number 38225. >> This is for handicap parking. It is a favorable recommendation

>> Good night. >> Okay. Now for the top uh and that no objections will take 42825. Rename a portion of Orchard Street to Jackson Terrace.
Um we have Miss Neves. You're here for that. >> Yes. >> Okay. You have the floor. Tell us about your your item. >> Yeah. So I don't know if you're familiar with the um District B Jackson Terrace area behind the Mason Lodge. Uh there's
about six houses here uh in the courtyard. Um we don't have a street in front of our house. Um it's a dead end on both sides. Uh I had a neighborhood meeting between all of the owners and tenants in this area and um one of the
concerns that came up was uh there's nothing easily identifying the properties here. One side off of Jackson Street is called Jackson Court and the other side off of Newberry Street is called Orchard Street. Um, and
so we're having trouble getting our mail delivered if there's a new mail delivery um, person and then, you know, our Amazon packages, FedEx packages, and then, you know, concerns with safety, uh, police response and first responders
not being able to uh, identify when we call for help. So, we were hoping that on the Orchard Street side, um, starting over where Bread and Roses is, there's no houses on that side, the Bread and Roses address pertains to Newberry Street, and the
apartment right across from it pertains to Newberry Street. Um, so we wouldn't really have to run it by any other property owners on that end. And we were hoping that we can switch the name to identify Jackson Terrace starting on
that end leading into the courtyard. Yeah, we're just going to take a look at a map real quick if we can. >> Yep. >> Um, as we're trying to dig that up, just a bit of background. Uh this sounds a little less controversial than others,
but I I will tell you that I it um there it goes beyond just the city council and the city for the naming of the streets because when in generally speaking and you're taking some of the problems away from it, but when you change addresses and change streets, that really impacts
a lot of there's a domino effect. It impacts the postal service. It impacts a bunch of other things as well. Um, and so, um, and it's not something that we we don't do it all that often. And the last time I think we did it, we we had
to work with the postal service. Okay. We got a map. So, >> it's inside. >> It's inside. So, >> inside the >> So, Jackson Terrace leads to the stairs that goes into this like plaza and there's houses on both sides. Are you talking about inside up the stairs and
both sides of the plaza from Jackson Street? So Jackson Terrace is only the houses inside of that courtyard. >> Anything before the stairs is considered Jackson Court. >> Okay. >> And then on the other end, it's Orchard
Street. >> There's no street name identifying Jackson Terrace. So, one more time, from Jackson Street to the courtyard, that's Jackson Terrace. >> No, that's Jackson Court. That's Jackson Court. Once you cross up the stairs and
you go into that area, that's Jackson Terrace. >> Yes. >> Yes, that's Jackson Terrace. >> Terrace. And if you keep walking >> Yeah. >> through the through the court. >> Yep. >> That That's the section that is that's currently called Jackson Court.
>> No, that's called Orchard Street. So, we wanted to switch that end to Jackson Terrace. >> Give me a sec. >> This is Jackson Court right here. This is This is the courtyard and that's Jackson called Jackson. >> Jackson That's Jackson Terrace. Jackson
Court that one for this piece because Jackson is inside. >> Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. >> That's Jackson. >> That one is um Von Rose, I think. >> Okay. And you're talking about from this because >> that small portion
>> Yeah, that's a small portion in the in the middle is new. >> Okay. >> That one is new and that one is >> that origin is or street right there. >> Yeah.
>> But the the old street continue to the little small portion what you mentioned. >> Yeah. >> Uh in the middle is Newberry. after when you cross the Newberry is uh just a small portion from all church street. >> Okay.
>> So, uh she's looking to have this a small portion to connecting with the >> I think I know I I think everyone here I think understands the issue now. So, I think what we >> you know because that one when you see the park that one is the portion I think
she's tried to explain. >> Well, the park has got a name on it. She's talking about the road that leads to the park. That's where it's confusing, I guess. >> No, because that one is not close to the park. That one is the the the the enter to to just terra. That one is Newberry.
>> Yeah. >> This small portion is continue with the OA and inside the >> this Jackson Court. Yeah. >> Is inside the Jackson Court and then on the other side of this Jackson Terrace again heading over to Jackson Street. Yeah. >> Right. So that's
>> it's the opposite. It's the opposite. The the courtyard is terrace. >> Terrace. Yeah. Jackson on Terra. >> Yes. On the other end on Jackson Street, it's Jackson Court.
But you're correct, Selena. Uh uh I'm sorry. Is your name Selena? >> Yes. >> Councelor Reyes. Yeah. >> Councelor Reyes. Sorry. Um you're correct. It's the small portion between bread and roses that leads into the courtyard that we want to switch to Jackson Terrace to have those houses on
the terrace easily identified. >> And right now it's it's right now it's named as Orchard. >> Right now it's Orchard Street. Yeah. And so whenever we call, you know, first responders, they end up at either side of the dead end and they can't they
don't know what's Terrace. My recommendation counselors is this just because it's rare that we get this and I'm not sure exactly where our authority begins and ends and and what the proper steps are. I think we need some guidance. I I I I don't have the
institutional memory to provide that. My recommendation for us just to help the constituent and the resident along is to get that information to send that to the city attorney, provide some background. What are the steps needed to make a street change name? um that's been there since forever, but for the reasons that
that the that the Miss Dieves has mentioned. So that would be my recommendation that we table it here, get those answers because I don't know what they are yet and find out do we do we have it here? Is it a postal service? Do we need to work with them? Is there another organization that we need to to deal with? I don't know who the players
are um as far as making that change. It makes sense to me to make the change, right? But I don't know who how do we how do we make the change is the question. >> Yeah, we can send to Um and also we can send to the DPW
through the engineer when they identify together with the with the legal opinion. >> What I would recommend is is if you want to send it to the city engineer, we do that. But I really want a legal opinion on this as to what we need to do technically on this. I would like to get
it to city attorney. Maybe we copy that to the city engineer so they're aware of these changes and maybe they have an opinion as well. But I really think it's a city it's a it's a legal question that we that I know I don't have an answer to. >> Yeah. But we can do the the Yes, please.
>> We include them. Sure. All right. Do you want to make that motion? Looking for a motion to send the document to the city attorney and also copy the city engineer so they're aware and asking us for guidance on how to uh to to make this change. >> Motion Miss made and properly seconded.
Any further discussion? I just have a question. >> Okay. >> Um, how do I stay updated on this? Oh, sorry. >> Go right ahead. >> Me? >> Yep. Yep. Go ahead. >> Oh. Um, how do I stay updated on this?
Like, is there a way to add me to the email or how do I follow up? >> Um, it's my first time doing something. >> Let me take let me take care of this motion and then I'll answer your question. All in favor say I. I. >> Oppose? No. It's unanimous. The eyes have its table and it's going to those committees. Now to answer your question,
u typically what I would do is uh two things. I would always recommend for you to deal with your district counselor. I'm not sure whose district that is. >> B >> B. Uh so that would be councelor Wendy Luzon. You also have an atlarge counselor here, uh councelor uh Selena Reyes. Uh she represents the entire
city. So it would not it would be perfectly in order uh for for to to stay in communication with her. So those are the recommendations that I would have. >> Yeah. Yeah, when I had the neighborhood meeting, um, uh, counselor, um, Wendy was there and I explained to her the
situation and, um, at large, Giovani was there as well and they were aware. They're they're the ones that told me to put in this request. >> Okay. >> Okay. >> So, I I guess I'll just follow up with um,
>> councelor Selena as well, just to just stay in the loop. Yeah, she's on the committee and she would um she she would be getting any any emails that are coming to the committee. Obviously, the three of us would get it, including councelor Reyes and she's the vice chair, so she's got a lot of pull.
>> She got that. Yeah. >> Perfect. Thank you so much. >> You're welcome. All right. >> Next, next is the city attorney and engineer. Next is document number 39525.
Authoriz 39625 Auto Recycling Group LLC. Mr. O'Brien, welcome. Thanks for your patience. >> Thank you. Thanks for having me. >> All right. The last time we chatted about this, we were we were just to kind of get our heads back in the game.
Uh you have a you have a re uh you have a recycling shop there, metal recycling. Uh you need to get a license. There were some um dates that weren't really uh >> 39725 >> that were that were a little off. Then
we were looking to try to make it make the dates work as far as when is the the license expire, when is the new one starting up and then what we also had is we had we were looking I believe for some for some information from both um the city of the firef fire department
and this inspectional services. And the the bottom line here, we were cons we recently had another another um um permite come before us uh in the same way and what we found out after the fact was that they had a host of problems at
their facility and uh you can imagine our sensitivity now. We don't want to make the same mistake twice. So, >> um let's start off with do we have any information from I think we do from the city >> from the city uh inspe inspectional
services office. I think we got almost right after that meeting. I think we may have gotten something. I can't look on my phone because it's right there. So, I can't help. >> Um but I think we got I think we received something. Uh again uh 396
25 auto recycling group I believe we got an email from someone from ISD I think shortly after the meeting. It's probably not in it's not in our packet. I like it.
Who knows? Yeah, I don't have this INR packet. You find it's from the the inspector, his name is Stevenson. It would have probably come from Phillips Stevenson.
I do have it if that helps, but I don't I don't know. I can forward it over. I mean, I I He did uh supply me with a copy of the letter that he or Yeah. the letter he wrote to the city council. >> What's the date of that letter, Mr. O'Brien? >> Uh October 21st.
>> I don't know. See the phone? >> Huh? I don't have my seat phone days. >> Would you be willing to right now uh My phone is being used right now for this Zoom purpose so I can't access it. Would you would counselor raise would you be willing to to see if he can send that to
you? >> No. Could you send that to councelor Reyes? What's your email address? >> Uh C Rees >> C Reyes >> at city of Lawrence.com. >> Do you also have the fire department's
report? I do not. I did not receive that. >> They did. You wanted something in writing if I remember correctly from that meeting. Correct. We wanted that in writing from both the fire and the >> fire and the and ISD >> and I think they said they could get something to us. I thought they either
had it the fire department or Maria. Do you recall seeing anything from them? No. >> No, I don't. But I do remember that that was requested to put everything in writing. But um >> right >> I don't have any correspondence from them from either
in the in the documents that Teresa left me. I don't see anything here. >> Let us know. Have you sent it already, Mr. I just uh Yep. It's sent. Okay, thank you. I'll go right to the bottom paragraph.
It goes to the list of the initial violations, the corrective actions that were taken rather than go through all those. So, as of today, October 21st, 2025, the facility has demonstrated good faith efforts in compliance with local, state, and federal regulations. The business has been given the go-ahehead
to continue with normal operations. This case highlights the importance of coordinated uh oversight and swift corrective measures to safeguard both public safety and business community in the city of Lawrence. Signed by Philip D. Johnson or excuse me, Philip R. um D
Stevenson, health safety and equity official with the city's ISD division. Thank you, counselor. Um so we we really wanted to get the fire department thing. I I I remember getting
a verbal from them at that meeting that things were fine. I thought that it was bas basically they already had a report ready to go. I think counselors we can ask some questions regarding that. Um I'll leave it up to you. Do you have any questions you want to offer or ask Mr.
O'Brien? Anybody? You don't have to. No. Mr. So Brian, did the firefighters went back and talk to you or said, "Have you talked to them after the meeting?" >> I followed through.
>> They came before the meeting. They had been at they came to reinspect after the initial inspection. >> Mhm. >> And verbally okay it from what you heard same as you heard at the meeting um two weeks ago or was it >> Yeah, I think two weeks ago. >> Mhm.
>> Um and we had corrected the issues. He asked for a uh sprinkler system inspection report which or um excuse me fire not sprinkler system excuse me um fire um alarm inspection report which we had uh you know I sent that over to him
and they came and inspected like the egress issues that they had with a couple of the buildings which were all corrected and so he was he was happy. I mean there was no nothing else that they were asking us to do. So, I think we have a we have a couple
of options or maybe two or three options. Let me list them as I see them. One, we can table it here and wait for the fire department. Two, we could set up to the city council with either a u with or without a recommendation uh
pending the report from the fire department, which I thought we' already had by now, which we didn't have. Um or three, we could um not approve it, I guess, or withdraw it or unfavorable recommendation. Um so
I I think those are our our three options. Keep it here. We'll move it up and get more information before we take a final vote. I think those are pretty much it. What are your thoughts? Mr. >> O'Brien, are you operating as we speak? >> Yes, we are.
With our license, with our permit. >> You have a permit. You have a license, right? >> I do have a license. Yes. And >> remind us again the expiration date. >> So, what happened is I I was giving a license, but it was incorrectly given to me for one year and it should be a three-year license.
>> Uh, and it was given to me without city council approval. >> It was a different department, right? >> Yeah. >> So, that >> it's arguable. It's arg Well, it's arguable. you got if you don't have the proper license from the proper authority, it's arguably you have it, but we're not
going to go down that rabbit hole right now. So, um um but this this license as of now uh expires at the end of this year, and this should be it should have be a three-year license from I think March of 25 through, you know, March of
28, I believe, is what we're shooting for. I think you've got concerns which I don't which I respect. So, >> and I I mean I don't want to prevent anybody to do business in the city, but to be honest, I'm not
I'm not comfortable with that type of business in the city. I mean it it's what they do to me what I see what they do to the city is more harm than anything else. I I I and I've been working with these things and I've been driving through other cities and those
type of business I I away from the downtown. The last city that I visited was Chelsea and that thing is all the way from downtown areas where the railroad tracks are with there's no buildings around basically with families.
I mean, I I I'm not in favor of that type of business, honestly, in my city. I don't want it. And and the last business, nothing to do with it, but the last business that we're here, I mean, the the job that they offer to the actually the people in the city is is limited.
I don't know. I mean, I I'm pretty uncomfortable with with me approving anything when it comes to that business myself. But again, it's it's three of us, so it's not just me. So >> do you I mean so the ch the I mean the the question is do we want to send this up with that so no favor recommendation
because you've got you've got principled reasons as to why you're uncomfortable with it. Do you want us do you want to table it here? I just want to make sure that we get up to the council at some point if they get all the right paperwork. I think your point was well taken. We need to get written
recommendations. Verbal's great, but when when the when the stuff hits the fan, we need to make sure that we can show that yeah, I you said yes, fire department. Yes, and here's the documentation. So, I think it's important. Do we want to wait the full council so we don't delay them or do you want to wait them on here? But you know what I'm saying?
>> And if it's if you guys go back in the records, you guys see my vote ne never had him in front of us or this business in front of us, but the other ones I always voted no for it cuz that's the way I feel. But at the end, I I'll go with whatever you guys All right. At the end of the day, my vote anywhere we go will be no.
>> I understand. >> So, and not against you or your B. It's the type of business and I never had you in front of us and I voted for the other company. No, because I honestly think that we we as a city needs to come out together and try to work something else with them and get them out of the
downtown somehow. I mean, our city is changing, beautifying our city. And I encourage you colleagues, I encourage you to take a drive through there on a busy day when they actually operate and then you can see the chaos in there, the pollution that comes out of those things
and the chaos. You can't even drive through there. The chaos, okay, all those I mean, I don't even know. But again, I'll go with whatever recommendation you guys do. And at the end of the day, I'm not in favor of of of any of it.
>> Any thoughts? I would like to see what is the recommendation from the fire department and after that we can move it forward. >> Uh >> you want to keep it here and do that or do you want to move it up and do it? >> We can move it up to to the full council and pending with the documentation in
the agenda. >> I would recommend then based on our colleagues concerns that we do without a recommendation just as a as a committee report and send it on up. >> So is that your motion? >> Motion to send up to full counsel without a recommendation as a committee report. Is there a second? >> Second. >> Motion has been properly a second. Uh
any further discussion? So, Mr. O'Brien, just so you're clear of what is about to happen here because I think we're going to vote 3DS. Um as this is not going to stay here. We're going to move it up to the full council which is a step closer pending >> pending >> pending the the the fire department's
report. So, it's really important for us to get that because I I I'm probably not even though I'm ultimately I'm going to vote in favor of it, I'm not going to be voting in favor until I get that docu that document in. So, um I think it's important that we do get that documentation. And I know that's not up to you, but we need to fire department
to to step up. So, we need to figure out and I hope part of the motion should be, I think, to to make sure the fire department is aware that we're looking for this document uh by next by the next city council meeting. Uh so so you're aware of what's happening. So we're going to set it up. Uh it's going to be
on the agenda. Uh and we're going to wait for the fire department and then we'll have a discussion. And you kind of know where the votes from the from the committee are at this point. So you need to get five, right? So you got one no. So you need to make sure you got you need to get five others to vote yes at
the full council. So that's how that's going to work. Motion made properly second. If there's no further discussion, I'll call the question. All in favor say I. I. >> Post. No. the eyes have it. All right. So, I I I don't know where our next meeting is. I I we have an
election next Tuesday. That's usually when we have our meetings on the first and third Tuesday of the month. Um I'm going to guess it's going to be on Thursday. That's a guess. Um so that's what um uh November the 6th I think.
>> So um I would keep your I would keep that Thursday open at night 7 o'clock. >> Okay. It it'll be it'll be and if you want to come live, you can. Uh we're probably going to have it at the South Florence East School, which is on um is on Osgood Street uh in Lawrence,
right next near the Lawrence Lawrence High School. So that's that. Okay. >> Okay. >> Thank you, sir. >> All right. Thank you. >> You're welcome. Let's go to the top. Uh document 420. There's nobody else on the line, right? So we're going to move on. 42325.
Here we go. Uh, Servicio, I say that right? >> Yeah. >> Evangelistico. >> Yeah. >> At the Campon Common, November 8th through 25th, 11 to 5:00 p.m. >> Uh, there's nobody here. Uh, and our next meeting is is when we
need to get this thing done. Uh, do first of all, do they have do they even get is it even free? I start with that. Do they have the ticket? They do. >> I don't. >> Yeah, they do. >> Uh, you want to set it up without without a recommendation or we can leave
it here? What do you want to do? >> Motion to send her motion to send to the full council without a recommendation. >> Motion's been made. The motion's been made by council zar second. The vice chair rais discussion. Uh, seeing none, I'll call the question.
All in favor say I. I. Oppos? No. The eyes have it. It would be helpful if they showed up to the whole council meeting. You don't know how these things end up going. All right, that's a committee report, right? Next is 424. What we uh 42425 Handicap
Parking, 124 Trenton Street. Well, and this is 424 and 425 kind of go together. Great. >> This is an official form by the mayor's office on page two. Anyways,
okay. Move the handicap sign from Bolton Street to 214 Franklin Street. Um, >> so where is it going? >> So the first one uh is uh 18 uh 124
that makes sense. Move the handicap parking sign from 18 Fton. They want to remove 18 FTON and they want to add 124 Trenton. So 124 Trenton should go to the police like it like normally do for their review. >> Yep.
>> All right. You want to make a motion? Motion to send document 425 42425 to the police station for review. >> Second. >> Motion made and properly seconded. All in favor say I. I post. No. You guys
have it. So we see here in this packet. He's got this handicap parking progress. Now he wants to remove it >> from there. Now the question is is do you want to send this to the police
department as well or do we feel comfortable enough to send to the full council order public hearing to remove it? I >> think we just send it right up because there's already another application for it to send it up again. >> Oh uh 425. >> Why is that person's name different? No,
it's the same person. >> It's the same person. Philippe Hodago. Same >> same person. Yeah. Okay. >> Same paperwork and there's there's no handicap locker here. So yeah, we'll send it up to have it removed. I believe >> we can do it with a public hearing.
>> Okay. Looking for a motion. >> Motion to send document 42 42525 to full conser favor recommendation to order public hearing. >> Thank you. >> Motion made and properly seconded. All in favor say I. >> I post. No. You guys have a document 426
25. Remove handicap parking at at 170 High Street. I am so thrilled to be given these beh So so she's saying we I don't need that anymore. I moved. Yes. All right. Same same motion. >> Same motion. Motion to send 425 uh
document 42625. Motion to send full consult recommendation for a public hearing. >> Motion made and seconded discussion. See none. I'll call the question. All in favor say I. >> I. No. The eyes have a 42725 handicap parking at 43
Street. >> Oh. >> Wow. >> You got a spot. It's for her. Is it for her? >> Document 42725. Motion to stand on full consionation to order a public hearing.
>> Motion made and properly seconded. All discussion. All in favor say I. >> I. No. Disab925. This is uh resident parking on Saratoga Street between Sterns and Oh, you two are at this Sterns A and Arlington Street. What are we doing? >> Motion to send to the police department
for the review. >> Second. >> Motion made and properly second to discussion. See none, I'll call the question. All in favor say I. >> I post. No. The eyes have it. Uh 4:30 25. No parking area. Pearl
Street. No parking. Okay. This is an issue we constantly get. So, what's happening here is they I think they got a driveway. >> Um Oh, they're not parking in front of like literally in front of the driveway.
particle pictures, right? So, turtle This is Pearl Street. Pearl Street. So, they're looking for no parking. Okay. Well, you want it when you want to send a police department. Um, it's up to
you. Uh, they want it across the street from where they live. Am I reading that correctly? >> Yes. And the picture would say is what they want. 118. So I don't know. So the ad so again we don't know how far they're looking to
um I think they're just looking for the whole street. They talked about snow plowing or they're just looking for that one little section. Oh my goodness. Oh, they're trying to make the turn and they can't.
>> Yeah, this is the way they come out. >> Wow. All right. This is this is what happens. Okay. So, uh police department for their review. Document 43025. >> Yeah. >> To the police department for review and
engineering. >> Police and engineering. Motion a letter to both of those departments. >> This is made by council del Rosario. Seconded by vice chair Reyes. Discussion. See none. I'll call the question. All in favor say I. >> I.
>> Post. No. You guys have it. >> Is that it for tonight? >> That's it. >> Oh, one more thing. I just bear with me. I promise I won't take long. I'm sure
you ch are you sure? Are you sure? Um like to take uh if there's no objection, I'd like to discuss item number um 41725. That's the dedication of the square honoring Lieutenant Margaret Sheen. Um, there's no objection. I just
want to update folks a little bit on that. And this is not my >> 127. It's 4 and 47. Correct. Okay. We're have to go off memory, I think, which I think I've got a handle
on it. So, council, this is the one where there was a request to do a um do a corner for a nurse. And so, there remember this one. So, um as you can know, I get a little passionate about this kind of thing. And so, I actually
uh went down to our library and got some information. It was fascinating. So, I can report back to this committee a couple of things. one, what I didn't know was the ballpark of how many veterans there were from World War II. How many people served in the military
during that year, and that number was uh approximately, this is not definitive, it's probably, this is probably an estimate, 11,100 people. Out of those, there were 360 women who served in the military. So,
360 veterans. out of those I've only been able to go through the letters A through H which are on here and I also went through a couple of the SH's the sheen so I can see that one as well. So I've gone through to take a look and try to get an
idea. Is it one nurse? Is it five? Not 500. It can't be but is it all 360 nurses. So only through A through H alphabetical and some of the SH's um I have 29
nurses so far. So that's a decent number. And so the question now is to me and I and I haven't heard back from the the folks who never contacted me. So I haven't heard back and I hope that they do. Um to me is like why are we picking
this one individual? There was one woman uh her story uh was that she uh was a nurse obviously uh from Lawrence was sent to to Europe
um and was put in a surgical group. You remember the movie the television show in the movie MASH? >> Yes. >> Uh it was about the Korean was the Vietn Korean War. >> This she was in this group that did something a little bit different. She
was actually on the front lines and served on the battlefront doing surgical work there. She got a Purple Heart for being wounded in action and she served in four or five different arenas during the war. She was the first woman from
her combat group to cross over um the I think I forget the name of the river that crossed over into Germany during the war. Um, so and that's and I haven't done the the entire exhaustive thing, but if we're looking for somebody
who has done something extraordinary, I would submit she might be somebody, for example, I haven't gone to the mall. I plan on doing that. I just haven't done it all yet, but I plan on going and finishing that up. We also have three families who have two sisters
who served as nurses during the war. the Cardillos, the Camerons, and C is the it codellas, but there were three. They all started with Caesars is how I remember. I'm sorry I don't have I didn't they're somewhere. My information
was somewhere just can't pull it up right away. So, I thought that was fascinating. There were at least at least three where there were two sisters and there a lot of families, a lot where you had brothers and sisters uh who served. So, there was nothing unique about that. So, I I hope it have a
conversation. I don't know where this is going, but I I just want we didn't have facts last time and I wanted to bring some facts today that we're going to move on to anything because we're not I don't expect to, but I just wanted you to be updated that that I think tableabling it was the right wise decision so we have a chance to find out
what's the breath, what's the context, what is this all about. So, anyway, I just that's that's all I wanted to say >> and I appreciate the info because that was my recommendation. I mean, you being the start working on this when it comes to the veterans and recognizing them in the corners and all
that stuff. I think the right approach should have been council LLAN can you help us research this I know you're busy but can you help us so that way we have a smooth conversation and and and you know and you come back with the recommendation look what you found now you know because we know you're
passionate and that's what I told him and I think the right move was why don't get counsel involved he's been working on all this >> why do you guys want to do it on your own without facts or anything when he's doing the whole work but I appreciate the info hopefully they'll contact you
or you contact them and then the conversation will start all over again. >> So that's that. So I just want to share that with you. So I have nothing else tonight uh on our agenda. So I'm looking for a motion to return. Oh, unless unless one more thing unless we want to start moving some of these things out
the last page. So we want to do that from November of 23 to March of 21 of 23. And I've got one right here I'm happy to take off. One of them is mine. The first one. Nothing's happening and nothing moving on it. Looking for a motion to
