 Good evening. I'd like to call the 13th regular meeting of the 2020 21 Common Council to order. Would the clerk please read the quote for the day. Thank you Mr. Mayor. Leadership and learning are indispensable to each other. Thank you very much. Would the clerk then call the roll? Alderperson Ackley, Alderperson Ackley, Alderperson Bourne, Alderperson Decker, Alderperson Donahue, Alderperson Faldi, Alderperson Mitchell, Alderperson Phillips, Alderperson Savaglio, Alderperson Sorenson, Alderperson Flicky Pineski, There are nine present. Thank you very much and Betty Ackley is excused. Next item on the agenda is the Pledge of Allegiance. Please stand and join me. I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America and to the Republic for which it stands, one nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all. Next is approval of the minutes from our 12th regular council meeting which was held on September 21st. Alderperson Sorenson. Thank you Mr. Mayor. I move for approval of our previous minutes. Thank you for that motion and support. Those minutes are before you. Is there any discussion? Seeing none. All those in favor please signify by seeing aye. Opposed? Aye. Opposed? Motion passes. Next item is public forum, City Clerk. There's no one this evening. Very good. Then we'll move on to the mayor's announcements. First of all I'd like to review the COVID numbers for the last week. So as of today we now have 2369 positive tests. That's up 683 from the numbers last week. Right now we have 295 active cases and that's up 103 from last week. We now have 1547 people who have recovered and that's up 69 from the previous numbers. We have 11 people in the hospital versus 13 last week and unfortunately we had three more deaths this week. We're up to 19 deaths versus the 16 from last week and we have 40,917 negative tests registered and that's up 4,029 from last week's numbers. Wisconsin has been identified as a COVID-19 hotspot in the United States. Sheboygan County has contributed to the outbreak of these new cases. Some of our uptick in the cases has been caused by the outbreak at the Kettle Marine Correctional Facility where roughly one third of their inmate population has tested positive for COVID-19. There continues to be isolated positive cases reported at some of the Sheboygan schools. The ones that are affected are the Sheboygan Central High School, Sheboygan North High School, Sheboygan South High School, Lutheran High School and then some elementary schools Grant Longfellow and Sheridan Elementary Schools. At this time the schools continue to make school days with virtual learning and in place learning. Sheboygan County Safe Restart Plan. We are currently in phase two and we remain there but we have a lot of negative markers right now and are on the brink of falling back into phase one. Sheboygan County School risk level is currently at the high risk level and Governor Evers recently continued the mask order through the late November. It was welcome to see many of our commercial businesses taking action to require mask while shoppers conduct business in their facilities. It's good to see that they recognize the role that this can play to help protect the health and well-being of the community that they serve by following the evolving guidance of our health officials. Remember to wear a mask and slow the spread of coronavirus in Sheboygan. Join the mask up campaign. Thank you. Next, today we have a proclamation to present for National Arts and Humanities Month. I'd like Katie Gladoski to please come forward. I wanted to do some of the other people from the different organization. Katie is with the Wild Center for the Performing Arts. Jackie Erdman is with Above and Beyond Children's Museum. Josh Herenday is with the Sheboygan Symphony Orchestra. Travis Gross is with the Sheboygan Historical Museum. Garrett Erickson is with the Meade Public Library. Jackie Blindauer is the board president of the Sheboygan Theatre Company. And Sam Katleyer is with the John Michael Kohler Arts Center. That's fine. A proclamation, whereas the nation's 120,000 non-profit arts organizations, the National Endowment for Arts, the National Endowment for Humanities, and the nation's 4,500 local arts agencies and the nation's Arts and Humanities Councils annually issue official proclamations designating October as National Arts and Humanities Month. And whereas the arts and humanities embody much of the accumulated wisdom, intellect, and imagination of humankind. And whereas the arts and humanities enhance and enrich the lives of our families, our communities, and our country. And whereas the humanities help diverse communities across the United States explore their history and culture. And whereas the arts and culture industry strengthens our economy by generating $166.3 billion in total economic activity annually and $27.5 billion in government revenue and by supporting the full-time equivalent of 4.6 million jobs. And whereas the creative economy drives tourism and commerce, supports American workers, makes up to 4.5% of the annual gross national product, and proposed federal legislation titled the CREATE Act S650 and HR 1519 and the PLACE Act Senate Bill 3232. I would support economic development of the creative economy. Therefore, I, Mike Vanderson, the mayor of City of Sheboygan, do hereby proclaim October of 2020 as National Arts and Humanities Month in Sheboygan and call upon our community members to celebrate and promote the arts and culture in our nation and to encourage everyone's participation to take action to support the arts and humanities. So I'd like to present this to Katie and the rest of the people in here and thank them for everything that they do. And I wanted to offer Katie a little chance to say a few words. Many of these organizations are really in need of more support and sponsorship during this tough time during the pandemic. So Katie, the floor is yours. Well, thank you for your recognition of Arts and Humanities Month. I'm Katie Gladoski, the Executive Director at the Wiles Center, and I'm proud to briefly speak on behalf of the amazing consortium of Arts and Humanities Leader in our community who are here with me today. Throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, we saw how much the world needed arts. The arts brought us together while we were apart. People sang off balconies together, enjoyed live concerts from the comfort of their couch, downloaded art projects, read books, took virtual tours of some of the best museums in the world and more. In our community, our arts organizations worked and still work together to support each other. We're all invested in collaborating when possible and helping each other succeed because together we make Sheboygan a vibrant place for arts and culture. But as you can imagine, with the COVID pandemic, our organizations need your support and the support of our community now more than ever to safely engage with our guests, stay relevant on a virtual platform, and for some of us simply to survive. The mayor asked if we could share how the community can support our organizations this month and throughout the year. Rather than having everyone present, we prepared a brief takeaway piece to share with the council members. On the one pager in front of you, you'll learn a little bit about all of our organizations, what we do, who we serve, as well as ways you can support our individual organizations. We have a few specific asks of you this month. Simply learn and share about our organizations. Take the time to educate yourself and your constituents on the benefits of engaging with the arts and humanities this October. It's easy enough as highlighting us in your e-blasts, on your website, in your social media posts, and you are always invited to visit any of our areas of work for a tour, a chat, or a special experience so you can share your first-hand knowledge with your constituents. So with that, we look forward to seeing you soon, and thank you again for your recognition of such an important month. I think our world needs it right now. Why don't we just step out here and take a picture? Yep. A few other announcements on returning your absentee ballot. If you're opting to vote absentee, note that the ballots need to be returned by election day to be counted. The options for returning ballots include by mail or via our two official boxes, drop boxes. You can bring it to your polling location on election day as well. There's a new official absentee ballot drop box located in the drive on the west side of the Meade Public Library, and it's available 24 hours a day. There's also a drop box that is inside of City Hall right next to the entrance door, and that is open from Monday through Friday at 7.30 a.m. until 4.30 a.m. This weekend we had a Roots kickoff at Evergreen Park area number five. I want to thank the restoration of our Tree Sheboygan Roots and the Sheboygan Rotary Clubs for their contribution to the Emerald Ash Boar mitigation project. This included tree planting projects with local municipal governments to combat the devastation caused by the Emerald Ash Boar infestation at Evergreen Park last Saturday. The leaders and representatives from the City of Sheboygan Rotary District 6270, the Sheboygan Rotary Club, the Early Bird Rotary Club in the Lion Energy is sponsored the project and Lakeshore Natural Resources Partnership spoke to the significance of these projects and participated in the tree planting ceremony. The Sheboygan EAB mitigation project includes the planting of 127 substantial non-ash trees and six of our city's most popular and utilized parks. Total project value will exceed $79,000. So we thank them for that assistance. Today at 7 o'clock this morning, Sheboygan Park Department started to accept 2021 reservations for park shelters and picnic areas. If you want to have an event at a city park, see city staff at the Department of Public Works at 2026 New Jersey Avenue. Reservations need to be made in person and paid in full. And I understand that if you're paying with a credit card, they will take some phone orders. National Night Out is having an annual community building campaign that promotes police and community partnerships in neighborhood camaraderie. This has always been a well celebrated summer event in Sheboygan, but this could not be scheduled this year in person due to the coronavirus pandemic. There will be a virtual National Night Out tomorrow, Tuesday, October 6 from 4 o'clock to 6 30. It will be a virtual Facebook event. They're asking the community to turn your porch lights on and share photos from previous years when you've attended. From October 12 through November 20, the City of Sheboygan residents are allowed to rake leaf piles into the street gutter area for pickup by the Department of Public Works crews. Please rake the leaves away from the curb to create space for water to flow properly and prevent flooding for any storm sewers. There are five collection zones in the city, one for each day of the week, and you can see the DPW website for more information. Thank you. The next item on the agenda is our 2021 Executive Budget Program. And for that we'll turn it over to Administrator Wolfe for program. Thank you, Mayor. Hard to believe three months ago. I never thought I'd be standing up here delivering the the Executive Program budget. So thank you, Mayor. Thank you, Council. Thank you, Department Heads. So you should have already received our Executive Program budget in brief. And you should have received the letter from myself to the members of the Council and Mayor Van der Steen. So there should be plenty of information for you guys to review. And if you have questions, please let us know. So moving forward, our city's mission statement, as you guys know it well, has not changed. And our vision statement has also not changed. Our city's values, though, I'd really like to review those with everybody. Accountability, fiscal responsibility, innovation, respect, service and teamwork. These are six values that I believe that we need to focus stronger on in the future. And it really I'd like to see us add communication also. These are things that really make us what we are today, and we use them daily. Moving to the next one. State and city restraints. As you can see, this we have our state laws, our tax levy, our budget parameters, our expenditure restraint program, tax rate CPI or lower, minimum fund balance and our target of 25 percent, which we've continuously performed better. So I just want to be reminding everybody about our limitations. It's a balancing act, which I found very interesting, obviously, in the last couple of months. We're looking to better plan for our TID closures. We're looking to map out a strategic plan for the future of each TID closure so that we can look at growth and projects in the future. Obviously, this limits what we can can raise tax levies also with our with our restraints. Next, I'm sorry, go back one and go back. Okay, perfect. Nope, you're good. Tax levy limits. I just wanted to touch on that. The state the state law restricts the percentage of increase of our city's tax levy based on several areas. Previous tax levy year, our new our net new construction, which technically we had a 2.89 percent or an 84,255,500 for 2020. Our TID closures, as you all know, TID 11 closed and that gave us 99,148 or 45 sorry, and then TID subtractions. Next. So when we talk about our expenditure restraint program, obviously, that allows us to increase the general fund expenditures by 60 percent of the percent increase of the city's net new construction and the allowable CPI. We also have the 2021 the city is estimating a 3.1 allowed increase in expenditures. Please understand that our constraint growth and development is better than a spike. So what I mean by that is year over year, if we were to have continuously have development within the city would actually affect us better on our on our taxes than a spike like we had last year. So if you remember back in 2019, we had a little bit of a problem with with our some some of our development not carrying over by the IRS. So we kind of got penalized because this last year we actually had a large growth. Next. Equalized tax rate and CPI or lower estimated consumer price index is 1.4 and 2021 executive budget recommends an equalized tax rate of negative 7.98. Next. So when we look at our assessed tax rate, our 2020 is estimated due to timing. 2021 we had a we're looking to have a 15 cent or a 1.49 and you can find that in your budget facts sheet in 2020 just to review. We had a 13 cent or a 1.33 percent. And in 2019 we actually had a 19 cent per thousand or a 1.194 percent. Next. Our fund balance. This is quite unique. The city's goal is to maintain a fund balance 25% of the year of the next year's budgeted general fund expenditures. That's our target. And we do a very, very good job of that. We're also fiscally responsible. And we use that as our safety net consistent with our Moody's credit services recommendations on the calls that I've been on. This has been a very good thing for us to help us maintain our double a 2. Our 2021 executive budget fund balance is approximately 41%. So remember, our goal is 25%. We're at 41%. Last year, we were at 39%. And if you remember, we actually, I believe it was back in 2018. We actually used $5 million to help the remodel out of our fund balance. So again, we've already replaced it. And we're already at 41% for 2021. We have to be cautious on spending and expenditures due to COVID. But the additional, we are looking to have some additional training and munis upgrades to get us off the AS 400. So a lot of these are going to be looking at to come out of our fund balance in the future. Next. So as you can see, in this graph, our uncommitted fund balance, you can see how how we've been increasing our executive. Our target we shoot to be is at 9 9,995,259. That's the 41%. And if you look at where we are, we're at the 16,280,752, our actual fund balance. Next. So on here, you can see our 2020 budget facts. So if you guys can't sleep tonight or the game is not looking so good, you can look this over. Oh, we'll be fine. Next. This is our favorite page property tax levy. Just because it's so colorful. You can see that it's consistently split. We've had an increase in our property tax levy by 50,667. We increased that for the meet public library levy portion. That'll give them a 2% for their wages. We had a decrease of $40,716 in the levy for transit. So we reduced our contribution there. Our debt service, we did increase $299,043. And our capital improvements, we decreased by $80,025 to $812,000. So by doing that, it allowed us to have these increases in the meet public library and our debt service. Next. Our 2021 personnel changes. Our first one was on FTE program coordinator senior services. That is actually net neutral to the budget. The friends group for the senior center is actually funding that through the city. The second one is an FTE page supervisor that was requested by the meet public library. That will have to be reviewed by the public library board of trustees for final approval. We were not able to provide them with additional funding for that. We're trying to obviously maintain the budget and keep it net neutral. The third one is the transfer of one FTE in public works, streets and sanitation. And that was actually planned in the 2020 budget. And it's just kind of happening now. Next. In this one you can see our general fund revenues. You can see how it all, how it breaks out with all of the different departments. Next. The details are here for the general fund revenues. Next. The 2021 general fund expenditures. Again, this is basically the breakdown from all, from, you know, public works, public safety, a general government, all of our transfers. We're very consistent. We've had, we have a flat budget. So the team did a great job looking at under every rock to be able to see what we, what do we need and what do we have to still maintain. Next. Here are the details that you can see from 2020 to 2021. Next. Special revenue. Special revenue funds expenditure. This is basically changes in our, in these areas are minimal as you can see. Just looking through it, you can see the general government, public safety, public works, very minimal overall. Next. Special revenue funds notables. Basically, this is where we have the urban forestry management plan contribution of 110,000 neighborhood revitalization. This is the second year of TIT 11 increment. The South 10th Street reconstruction ADA infrastructure. This is also coming from, which is 72,000. This is also coming from the TIT 11 increment. The Stonebrook crossing subdivision grading. This is being brought to us through the park impact fees. So that'll be 15, $50,000 out of there. And then the increase in tax levy contribution for the meat public library. That is the funds that were provided for the 50,667. That, that will be used by the meat public library for wage increases for the year. Next. Oh, sorry. Special revenue fund notables. This is really where everybody kind of asks how, how are we doing? So tourism room tax revenue due to pandemic has a decrease of negative 546,000 estimated. The Harbor Center Marina, we're looking at estimated 225,000 negative and we're continuing to transfer. We are moving things as far as receipts in that we're looking at 26,000 is anticipated. And we're also looking at the Marina rentable storage units of 25,000. So they're one of the things that I did want to bring up is that there is a lot of use in the area due to the local businesses. So when we talk about the hotels and things like that, they're actually doing better than estimated. And a lot of that I can tell you is from my past life, because there's there are businesses in the local area like in Sheboygan Falls that actually had to bring in like 60 plus employees to temporarily live in Sheboygan in Sheboygan Falls because of the pandemic. So that obviously brought in quite a bit of revenue. That's not a norm. Next. So the debt service fund. This is quite interesting. So basically in the 2020 and 2021 is deceiving. So part of this that we want you guys to remember is when we did the 18 to 19 and 19 into 20, if you remember, we were moving a lot of dollars in the in the general obligation because of the the borrowing for South Point and for the for the remodel of of City Hall. The same thing is going to happen basically in 2021. And that's why you see an uptick of 36.01%. The reason that's actually showing is the NANDs that we did for for our past obligation did not show up in our debt. So now they're going to become geo debt, which will actually show up. So now we're borrowing this in 2020. But we're actually expensing it or spending it in 2021. So this will the reason we're doing this is we wanted to get away from the the NANDs. We needed to extend it into the geo debt. But I also wanted to remind you that the actual interest rates are much better much more pleasant. And that's another reason why we're doing it. Next. So the debt service fund notables. As you can see property tax levy increases of $299,043. We stole our maintaining our Moody's AA2 and it's been very favorable for us. Late 2020 refunding of the 10 and a half million NAND. So the timing difference and the expenditure offset as I explained before the 2021 plan geo debt issue of $4,254,038 to fund the approved 2021 capital improvements fund. And that was approved in June of 2021 2020 sorry. Next. Capital projects. Just to kind of review those real quick. So we have the traffic flow improvement of 14th and Taylor and Erie and Kohler Avenue. Kohler Memorial sorry. That's a million 943 800. We have the Geely Avenue. So North 3rd 3rd Street to Calumet Drive that's a million dollars. The four police squad and and the computer upgrades of 243,000. We have those Boots and Sports Complex of 190,000. We have the sidewalk improvements. Citywide which is our typical 100,000. We have the LED street street lighting upgrade citywide of 60,000. The one thing I did want to bring to the council is that the senior center is not included in this in this funding. We're looking to come back to you and ask to use fund balance. We'll also be applying for a HUD 108 loan. So there'll be some information coming to you guys in the future. Next. TID related capital projects. TID 19 North Commerce Street in construction. That's two and a half million. TID 17 South Peer Street expansion is a million. TID 17 Indiana Avenue Trail project phase one is 875,000. TID 17 Indiana Avenue streetscape improvements 750,000. And then TID 20 our newest TID is South Business Drive Georgia Avenue intersection improvements of 700,000. And that's the Oscar project is to remind you. Next. Proprietary funds expenditures. As you can see above the includes water utility for projects and increases. Next. So on this page basically it outlines the water utility. So you have the South Lakeshore sewer interceptor of upwards of $10 million dollars. Sewer line reconstruction relining of a million dollars and that's that's a project that is continuously happening throughout the city. Aeration blower number 2 replacement that's 350,000. And again that's an ongoing plant maintenance upgrade. So you're going to see increased billing costs to the water utility of 125,000. Also due to that is the chemical treatment cost of 37,430. And the estimated increase will be a 4% which is approved. So the water utility board of water commissioners approves their increase. And the wastewater increases are approved by the public state commissioners. And they approve it every 1 to 2 years by the DNR. Next. So proprietary funds, notables, employee health insurance premiums increase 5%. Employee HSA contribution reinstated 375,200. Transit maximizing CARES Act funding. So transit facility maintenance upgrades is 200,000. And then paratransit vehicles is 260,000. One of the things I did want to outline and talk a little bit about is the IT 6%. And the motor vehicle 2.5% maintenance fee increase, continuation. This is a process that the city's been undertaking the last few years. So we're charging each department. So if it's IT related, they get charged 6%. And then if it's a vehicle related then they get hit with a 2.5% maintenance fee. This is basically to allow the city to not have to borrow so much. So by internally charging it to each department then we're able to build a fund so that we're able to replace our fleet on a strategic plan. So this is a really good way to actually manage and not have to borrow for funds in the future. So it's to help us support and be self-sufficient in the future. Next. So bringing all good things to an end and trying to keep you guys awake, our budget information, as you can see, is here at the city hall, Mead Public Library. And it's also on our website. And again, I just want to have a shout out to the city staff and Kerry, for everybody that's had to work on this and the countless hours, especially in the finance department with Marty and his team. Budget time is very difficult. We're trying to find ways to streamline it. But and I think we will get there year over year. We're making strides to make sure that the information is much easier to get, and that it's obviously accurate and efficient for us to get this information to you guys. So that's my presentation. Thank you. Thank you very much, Administrator Wolff, for that presentation. Are there any questions? Mayor? Go ahead. Not necessarily a question, but I do just want to echo just the thanks for Administrator Wolff's work on this coming three months, you know, kind of new into just under three months. Yeah. And Kerry, you know, we're glad to have you back as well, too, for all your work on this and Marty, the finance department help and all the department heads to I know that budgets aren't an easy thing, especially with planning for the uncertain future as well. So and definitely encourage the elders once this budget gets disseminated and we'll kind of, you know, pick at it and look at it through the at the committee level too. So please take time and I know in our leadership meetings, we've had a lot of conversations about the budget process and how this is going to impact a lot of different services in our city. So it'll be interesting stuff. So just want to encourage everyone to do their homework and ask some good questions. Thank you for those comments and just to remind everyone this year, the budget in brief is what we're going to be handing out. We're not going to be handing out the large binder of all of the details. If any elder does want that, let us know and we'll provide them a digital copy, but there's just so much redundancy in that in that information that the budget in brief really provides everybody with the information that they need. Thank you. Thank you very much. Administrator wealth. Great job. Next, we'll move on to the consent agenda. That'll include items 3.2 through 3.8. All the person sorenson. Thank you, Mayor. I move to receive and file all reports of officers receive all reports of committees and adopt all resolutions and ordinances. Thank you for that motion and support. Is there any discussion on any of the items on the consent agenda? Seeing no discussion with the clerk, please call the roll for passage. Nice. Motion passes. We'll move on to reports of officers. Item 4.1 is our own number 77 of 2021 by the city planning commission to whom was referred. Resolution number 88 of 2021 by Alderperson Boran and our own number 70 of 2021 by the city clerk submitting a final plat for Stonebrook crossing addition number one and recommends receiving the arrow and adopting the resolution with specific conditions a applicant shall obtain all subdivision approval from the appropriate agencies, including but not limited to the city, the county, the state of Wisconsin, the DNR, et cetera. B, the applicant shall submit a final plat that meet the city of Sheboygan subdivision ordinance. C, the developer's agreement shall be executed prior to signing any of the final plat. D, the applicant shall submit a temporary signage to staff for review. If staff has any concerns with the proposed signage design, the matter may be brought back to the planning commission for their consideration. In addition, your commission reports that that as part of this consideration is considered and granted the request for variance as follows. The street standard for Stonybrook crossing addition number one will be pavement with with a marked on the street path with drainage ditch as proposed only the main streets Stonybook Drive and Rimrock Road will have on the street four foot wide pedestrian bike paths that will be located on each side of the road. No street trees will be required. All the person born. I make a motion to receive the RO and adopt the resolution with conditions. Second. Thank you for that motion and support. The document is before us. Is there any questions? Mayor, I just wanted to make a couple comments. Alderman Boren. Go ahead. Thank you, Mayor. The stonebrook development over here in my district can word 23. It's going to be well over 100 residential homes. And the price point of those homes from what I learned at our plan commission meeting last week are going to be anywhere from about 240,000 up to $500,000 per home. And the property taxes that there that that's going to generate is probably anywhere from $5,500 on the low end up to almost $8,000 for the high end houses. So that's going to be a tremendous addition to our property tax base, which is going to be desperately needed and as time goes along. So I'm very excited to see the stonebrook development kick off and the benefits it's going to bring us as far as property tax revenue. Thank you. Thank you for that comment. Next, I'd like to call on Chad Pellecek. Thank you. I just want to echo Alderman Boren's comments and say that we're very thankful for the efforts that the Warner Homes Group has put together. This is the first time we're having a new subdivision in this community in probably 18 years. And it's the first time where the city has not put the infrastructure in the developers putting the infrastructure in. So echoing what Alderman Boren said, this is about a $50 million ad once fully built out to our tax base and the first subdivision that we've had in a number of years. So I just want to thank the Warner Homes Group for working with us through multiple steps to get to the finish line. Thank you very much for those comments, Chad. Is there any other discussion? Please go ahead. My question is about the parkland. I unfortunately was not present at the last BTW meeting when this was brought back for discussion. I'm wondering how much of the currently the current city parkland is going to be developed under this revised design. Chad, please answer. Under the plan, the parkland will not be disturbed. They reconfigured the roads and the lots to not have any impact with the current three acre parcel that's dedicated as parkland. Under the development agreement, they actually will be will be purchasing another lot or two to get access to that parkland in lieu of parking of park impact fees. So we're waiving new park impact fees for the cost of basically trading with them to get the lot to be able to access that existed wooded area. Thank you for those comments. Are there any other questions or discussion? Seeing none, will the clerk please call the roll for passage? I'm going to take a roll call. Alderperson Donahue, Alderperson Bourne, Alderperson Sorensen, Alderperson Toboglio, Alderperson Decker, Alderperson Phillips, Alderperson Mitchell, Alderperson Feldy, and appreciative. Alderperson Flicky Panoski, nine eyes. Motion passes. Next, let's see items 4.2 and 4.3 will be referred to various committees. Under resolutions, item 5.1 is resolution number 97 of 2021 by Alderperson Sorensen and Decker, authorizing the appropriate city officials to execute an agreement with GIS Inc. to develop a software tool to allow the Sheboygan Police Department to analyze its data with the city's ESRI GIS software. Alderperson Sorensen. Thank you, Mayor. I call for the suspension of the rules. Is there any objection to suspension? Seeing none. I would like to object. I have a question about why we are suspending the rules. Alderperson Sorensen, I guess I don't have an answer on that one. Does the chief or mayor want to answer that one? We're suspending the rules because we're using CARES funds to pay for the project and the funds have to be spent in the work completed within the next three weeks. Thank you for that explanation. Alderperson Flicky Panesky, does that answer your question? Thank you very much. Okay, one more call. Is there any objection to suspension? Seeing none, would the please proceed with your motion. Thank you, Mayor. I move to adopt the resolution. Thank you for that motion and support. The motion is on the floor. Is there any discussion? I have a question for the chief, Mayor. Please go ahead. Alderperson Sorensen. Thank you, Mayor. Chief Domigolski, I read I read over this document but I couldn't get much out of it as far as exactly what this software is going to do for your department. Could you kind of describe it for us, please? Sure. What they're doing is creating an interface so that our records management system data can be pushed out to the city's Esri system and it can be mapped in the analytical tools that are available through the city's GIS system can be used to analyze that data. Okay, thank you. Is there any other discussion? I have a question. Please proceed, Alderperson Sovoglio. Thank you. Could you expand on that a little bit more, Chief? Like how will this benefit the police department of the city overall? Sure, the efficient and effective use of our resources requires us to know what's going on and how best to deploy those resources as things change. So in this case in the pandemic we receive and share information with other government entities and by being able to take that data and put it in the GIS system we can better understand what's happening in real time have better situational awareness to make decisions and push those decisions down to the lowest level rather than up at top because more of that information is available in real time and in a manner that is understandable by more people.
