is there anybody in the audience at this time would like to come to the podium state your name and address for the record uh and have a conversation on anything anything that we is not on the agenda or is on the agenda by all means come on hello good even council members Kim King 4766 Street um first I'd like to uh acknowledge and thank Tanya Barrow for her assistance on a matter dealing with a family member who was having an issue if not for you and your contacts we would not have gotten the information that we needed and I appreciate you taking time out of your busy day to help us so I wanted to publicly acknowledge you um the second thing I wanted talk about is the boat launch at Earl gber Park um two weeks ago my husband and I went to go put our boat in the water and there was four adults fishing on the boat launch and two tiny tiny little girls playing in and out of the water and underneath the dock out there um there are no signs posted on the boat launch St how old were they do you think they were under 10 they were both under 10 and they were wearing life jackets no okay no and from the beginning of the boat launch all the way down the dock and all the way back they had garments shoes clothing fishing tackle everything laying all over the dock when my husband approached them and told them that we were going to be putting the boat in the water none of them moved would pull wouldn't pull the uh lines out of the water or anything um my only issue was the little girls because with boats pulling in and backing in and out like that somebody's going to get killed was there any Rhyme or Reason why they wouldn't use the brand new fishing P that is my issue and that's why I'm asking if the city would consider putting up a sign at the boat launch that specifically States no fishing and no sing around yeah boat launching only MH um CU that was they wouldn't even get their children when we tried to back down little girls were just running in and out around it I think we could put a sign up Council you want to have any conversation on this that's a very good idea just just indicating that that specific spot is a boat launch probably should do that at ergil at Pete Park also and I didn't know I don't know if Tony I don't know where he went if he was aware or not um at the launch site there is or used to be a small finger dock for loading and unloading it is gone a finger dock um a step down oh yeah for you to get in and out the boats easier it has disappeared and there are two uh 2 by 12s that are jutting out it's fixed is it fixed okay I it two weeks ago so I didn't know if it had been fixed or not okay all right was causing issues cuz boats could run up you're talking about where you can get into the boat with docks yeah I didn't know if anybody knew it was damaged or not but the two boards sticking out somebody's they it gets damaged all the time if you look around the bottom of the pier there you'll see car tires all over the Bott they hung them on there so people wouldn't beat their boats up and they throw them in the water it was totally missing that's why I just wanted to bring it to somebody's attention to make sure but the sign about no fishing and no swimming would be huge out there because it would then give us voters voters a voice when somebody uh argues back there's no sign here it says we can't fish no you're right point it out to us just for safety things we'll take take idea I was down there um and I saw the same thing you saw kids playing in that area um if they were on the other side where the beach is they should have been over there yeah I just wanted to bring it nobody the pier wasn't that busy so there's no reason why those no reason whatsoever I just wanted to bring it to your attention thank you ma'am appreciate you I did see that I don't know what it is Mr he is not on the agenda you're not on agenda item but if you'd like to take two minutes at the podium you may Michael Murray is 62 East

me please c h r i s t i a n thank you Walters you said Walters yes ma'am w a l t e RS yes ma'am thank you I have not had the pleasure of meeting you all or being here before you but I am here on behalf of Miss Cynthia Roso and 144 do Road um initially I had talked um with Mr SLO and have requested possibly a continuance of this matter I'm not sure if that is something the S the city is willing to entertain um you're officially representing Miss Roso yes sir she is your client yes sir okay we're recording that right yes sir okay so this been longstanding policy of the city of Parker that when we have an adversarial situation where another attorney is involved that the mayor and the council no longer communicate with that person or that attorney so you all of your Communications from this point on will be with Mr Timothy Sloan thank you Mr Mayor the t is asking for a continuance at this point of this item on the agenda council do we want to continue this or we want to go ahead and rule on it if you review your packet it'll tell you the answer to the question I got questions about U is there a backflow meter on the property there is is there city sewer on the property or is a septic it's city sewer it's not connected to city sewer MERS it's a setic tank okay but but there is a back blow well there was one in the front yard when it broke last January in the cold season because I went there to try to turn the water off so she wouldn't have a thousands of dollar water bill yes sir so apart from that I can't answer your question as whether it's active or not um all I can tell you is is this is um uh this just for the council to agree or disagree uh you have opportunity right now we could we can vote on it or not vote on it it's up to you guys well you would need a motion mayor if if the council wants to continue it you would have to have a motion to do that if there's no motion then you would proceed Yep this property's already been classified as a single family dwelling yes yes according to the paperwork I'm holding here and they're trying to turn it back toly family dwelling I'm not sure who is or who isn't but I think I think think that they're trying to sell it as a multif family dwelling but once it's sold it's it's not grandfathered in anymore so we sitting here on this subject no we're not I'm just waiting for open conversation for the councel to decide what you want to do moving forward I'll make a motion to deny this variance okay we have a motion to deny the variance second we have a second Madam Clark will you please call the role Mr s i if we're going to decide the variance may I present arum well there's a motion on the floor now I was not expecting Mr Haney to make that motion but okay it is' FL yes we have a first and a second on the floor in front of the people or under the gvv we have a first and second you please call the roll Miss Barrow I'm Sorry Miss Barrett yes Miss Barrow yes Mr Chapel yes Mr Haney yes mayor Kelly uh yes thank you and then from tonight all Communications should just go through Mr SLO that is it okay easier that way yes your honor um I believe it's decided at this point though yes ma'am it is okay and so there was no opportunity to argue I think my request was for a continu yes ma'am they didn't want to do that the council voted unanimously not to you can argue with ldr but it's not going to get you in here honestly well we don't have further discussion it's over the council chose not to continue the issue Mr Haney made the motion it was on the floor uh I didn't speak you didn't speak on that issue so um it's been decided at this point in time and you and I can talk about it later okay thank you Mr thank you ma'am thanks for coming by okay there's no item five is there I don't have a second page um Mr Chapel you have the floor sir uh the only thing I have to say is U your wall is built around the uh black hole we got the angels in today they'll be uh put in up on the wall sometime this week um if you want to go and put a name tag on I'm working with a company right now to try to get it someplace between 16 and $20 um to be able to put a three line uh name on there you could put the man's rank or the woman's rank uh the name uh What uh service Branch he was in uh what war he was in when he died or whatever and it doesn't have he doesn't have to die in a war he can be uh just a a serviceman or something like that but it is a memorial for veterans so like I say I'm working on the name tags and that's kind of a stumbling block right now the other thing is uh Saturday we have a uh yard sale at the uh ballpark um anybody wants to go and set up the booth or something like that for for tailgate sale U they welcome to do that um the sale will start at 8:00 in the morning and go until noon um you'll be out there with some people to sign your name and a telephone number so if you leave a mess you will be called to come and clean up your mess after it's over with and U I guess that's I guess that's about the barn that we're building out there uh supposed to be delivered roughly Friday it probably take at least a week or so to put it up at least it'll be out there by the FR can I add Mr Chapel we're going to dedicate the memorial once it's up and finished and get 13 in there so I'd like to invite all of you and the clerk will put something out on social media letting you know when we're going to dedicate the dedicated it should look very very nice I haven't seen the angels in place are they over there now did you do it they inst Tony's going to we got to go get figure out some glue good glue good glue because they'll be good going yeah the back gorill did you [Laughter] reallyy about chewing gum but that would work got monkeys on his mind I tell you does Mr Haney you had the floor sir I'm I'm kind of Shock by the idea of monkeys right now be honest I understand it upset me a little too it caught me off guard this Barrow I have nothing nothing m'am nothing Mr SLO no sir Madam Clark no sir okay all of you have a great day off tomorrow and um enjoy the weather and I appreciate your time thank you
