 Good evening. We'd like to call the Durham City Council meeting to order. Monday, August 5th at 7.02 p.m. I certainly want to welcome all of you that are here with us this evening. We'll just take a moment of silent meditation and I would ask if you would consider not exceeding the passing of Attorney Julius S. Chambers, former Chancellor of NCCU. Thank you. Thank you. That's Councilman Brown. If you'd like to send a pledge. That's the clerk that she would call the roll please. Mayor Bell. President. Mayor Pro Tem Cole McFadden. Councilmember Brown. Councilmember Cattady. Councilmember Moffitt. And Councilmember Shul. We have a couple of proclamations that we'd like to present this evening. The first in recognition of 2013 National Night Out and I'll ask Chief Lopez and whoever else you think is appropriate to join us. As many of you came in this evening you probably participated in the reception that was out in the plaza. And of course tomorrow night is the night that we as a community celebrate the National Night Out. The proclamation speaks to the fact that on Tuesday, August 6, 2013, the City of Durham will observe the 30th annual National Night Out, America's Night Out against crime. Joining forces with more than 15,000 communities from all 50 United States, U.S. territories, Canadian cities and military bases worldwide. Whereas National Night Out is a unique crime, drug and violence prevention program that is sponsored annually by the National Association of Town Watch and Target and spearheaded locally by the City of Durham Police Department. Whereas the observance is supported by the Public Safety Forces of North Carolina Central University Police, the Duke University Police, the Durham County Sheriff's Office and the City of Durham Fire Departments who are essential in helping to promote National Night Out and cooperating police community crime prevention efforts. Whereas National Night Out is supported by the active participation and in-kind services of City of Durham Departments who are committed to the city's mission to provide an excellent and sustainable quality of life. Whereas Duke Energy is supporting the 30th annual National Night Out with a donation of $500 to the Durham Police Department's Police Explorers Program. Whereas Durham's 2013 National Night Observance acknowledges the successes as well as culmination of the North Carolina Child Responsive Unit initiative, an award-winning partnership between the Durham Police Department and the Center for Child and Family Health that work to provide comprehensive follow-up services to families exposed to violence. Where as the City of Durham debuted on the National Night Out award scene in 2006, an each-year following has consistently ranked among the nation's top 15 participating National Night Out communities of comparable populations. And whereas in 2013, record numbers of Durham neighborhoods, businesses, faith groups, community and civic organizations observing National Night Out signifying their year-round commitment to promote police community partnerships, crime, drug and violence prevention, safety and neighborhood unity. Now, therefore, we will be the mayor of the City of Durham, North Carolina. Remember our proclaiming Tuesday, August the 6th, 2013 as National Night Out in Durham, and hereby I call upon all citizens to join the Durham Police Department, its local law enforcement partners, supporting community agencies, the National Association of Town Watch and Target, and supporting the 30th annual National Night Out. And witness my hand, the Corporate City of Durham, North Carolina, this is the fifth day of August 2013, and we'll present this to Chief Lopez for in the Congress that he may have. First of all, Mr. Mayor, I want to thank you and also the Council for your support with the Police Department. It makes it so much easier for us to work. I also need to thank our partners that we work with to include the North Carolina Children's Response Initiative, the Duke Energy, and others who are working with us. A safe community. You can tell a safe community primarily by the relationship it has with its Police Department. And if you look at the City of Durham, we are working very hard towards being a very safe community because the most important ingredient in law enforcement is really working here, and that is community. Our partnerships are very important to us, and they are instrumental in keeping everyone safe and bringing the quality of life to the best possible measure that we could have. So I accept this on behalf of the community of Durham, and thank you very much for continuing to be our partners and looking forward to celebrating this 30th birthday tomorrow throughout the community. There are quite a few sites, and I will attempt to make as many sites as I possibly can without breaking any speed laws. So looking forward to seeing the community tomorrow. Thank you. And also I'd also like to call up NC North Carolina Children's Response Initiative. Chief Lopez, over the last nine years, under your leadership and in partnership with mental health clinicians from the Center for Child and Family Health, Durham police officers have served more than 2,500 families through the North Carolina Child Response Initiative. These families, all of whose lives were impacted by violent crime in Durham, received comprehensive crisis services, individualized case management, and trauma informed assessments and treatment provided by licensed clinicians. The impact of this partnership has been difficult to measure, but is evident in the comments made by one young officer several years ago. Our team had just responded in the middle of the night to a homicide in which a young child lost his mother. Back at headquarters, waiting for investigators to interview the victim's relatives, this officer approached me. We could never do what you do, he said, but it is so important. In fact, our half, the mental health half of this partnership would never function without individual officers recognizing children and families in need, taking the time to share this information and assisting clinicians in locating and reaching out to these victims. So it is with both sadness and hope that I come before you this evening to mark what we hope will be only a pause in this partnership. We are sad that in this environment of sequestration and funding cuts, the North Carolina Child Response Initiative has lost its grant funding, preventing us from continuing this partnership at this time. At the same time, we are hopeful. Currently, we are seeking private funding to continue the program and will continue working in collaboration with the police department to identify other private and or public funding. Perhaps one day the partnership could be both public and privately funded. In the meantime, we would like to recognize you and the dedicated officers of your department. So this says presented to Chief Jose L. Lopez, Senior Chief of Police and the Durham Police Department in recognition of an appreciation for nine years of tireless dedication and service to Durham children and families as partners in the North Carolina Child Response Initiative. Thank you very much. Thank you very much. And your Ms. Bowman. I got it right. Yes, thank you. I have to say that I'm very humbled by this because this award really belongs to a lot of other people who are working behind the lines there, really caring about our children, taking a moment in their law enforcement capacity as police officers to realize sometimes the damage that life causes to some of our young people that are out there and recognizing the fact that they do need to get the mental health and the at least to see how well they are in order so they can move forward in their lives and that eventually our society will become one of individuals who are mentally healthy in spite of what life has thrown at them. And I think that at that level, it's very important. So quite frankly, I appear to have a bunch of angels out there at the North Carolina Children's Response Initiative. They don't have any wings. So I'm hoping that this community can provide them with some wings so they continue to fly here in the city of Durham. Thank you very much again. Thank you. The next proclamation is a continuing effort to identify organizations and that are helping as we go about the business of trying to reduce crime in our community. This proclamation recognizes crime stoppers and it's the board chairman, Pat Ellis, where it's crime stoppers is a worldwide network with programs in all 50 states. The Durham Crime Stoppers is a partnership between the community, law enforcement and media outlets to solve crime contributing significantly to the quality of life in the city of Durham. Whereas Durham Crime Stoppers program was started in 1983, thereby instrumental in solving many felony and homicide cases, whereas crime stoppers pays cash rewards for information leading to the rest of criminals who are providing callers with confidentiality by maintaining the call as a nominee. Whereas since its founding in 1983, Durham Crime Stoppers has maintained its status as a non-profit organization with civilian board of directors whose time and dedication helps to make Durham a safer place. Whereas from January 1, 2012 to now, Durham Crime Stoppers tips have resulted in over 230 cleared cases, 37 weapons recovered, 1,124 fugitives apprehended and over $9,768 in narcotics recovered. Whereas Crime Stoppers has proven the citizen involvement is a powerful weapon in combating and solving crime is an effective tool in enhancing the efforts of local law enforcement. Now therefore, I, William V. Bilbell, Mayor of the City of Durham, North Carolina, do hereby extend best wishes to Durham Crime Stoppers in the celebration of the 30th anniversary. With sincere congratulations for many more productive years. Witness my hand in the corporate city of Durham, North Carolina, this is the fifth day of August 2013. And I'd like again to present this to the board chair, Patty Ellis, for the comments I might have. If our board to stand up, as well as Radden and Parrot, our coordinator, law enforcement coordinator. I want to thank you. I want to thank Mayor Bell and city manager Bonfield and all the city council members for all the support you've given us over the years. And it's been a good working relationship. And we really appreciate it. Thank you so much. I'd like to recognize the mayor pro tem for some comments. Good evening. A few weeks ago, I was in old five points on a tour. And I noticed some outstanding young people doing some volunteer work. I think they were doing a rain garden. And so how many of you are here to just one of you? Yeah, they're on vacation. But Robin, would you stand come forth and just share a couple of couple of minutes about the project. And yes, that's good. Thank you. Hi, I'm Robin McGee. I'm on the board of Youth Summer Service Week. And we get youth in our community this summer. We had 30 youth doing great things in Durham. And in we have two themes, one's nourish, one's home. And in our home week, we gave back $7,000 in just flat out work to the community. There's an elderly lady who has two wheelchair ramps on her house. It's all the gardening work's been done. Front porch and back porch stained, painted, power washed, gutters cleaned, shrubs cut, bundled, put away. And she is throwing a party on her back deck this summer, thanks to the youth. And they also did $3,000 worth of work for Habitat for Humanity assembling pickle barrels and making them into rain barrels. And nourish week, we had kids out doing gardening and cooking for the homeless. And we have a representative from partnering neighborhood organization, we have a neighborhood representative, we have Spencer Bradford from Durham congregations in action, who's kind of our overseeing angel in this project. So we just want to thank the community. And it was great to have you stop by. That was a really wonderful surprise. Well, could we recognize this young man? Come up and introduce yourself. So Thomas represents about 30 teenagers from Durham. Just tell us who you are. I'm Thomas Little. And I participated in youth summer service week this year. And it was a great thing.

Second Madam Clerk, will you open the vote? You close the vote. It passes 6 to 0. We'll move to the general business agenda. Item 39 resolution expanding Medicaid. Items been properly moved. And second, we have four persons that would like to speak and I saw the city managers. You have got me, do you want to make a note? Okay. In fact, as I call your name, can you proceed to the podium to my right? You have two minutes on each one of these items. Dr. Gary Gringberg, Dr. Gringberg President. This is Howard Ellison. Mohan, that's why he's coming. Okay, good. And for now, your name when you get here, please. I apologize for that. I couldn't read it. And Dr. Webb, entry monumentus. It's those doctors handwriting. Yeah, okay. Sorry about that. Oh, I'm sorry. That was okay. The Dale Webb project is okay. That's the public here tonight. I'm sorry. Yes, sir. So I'm Dr. Gary Gringberg, resident here in Durham. And my job is as a charity care provider at a free clinic that happens to be in Way County. And I used to commute there from Durham when I worked at Duke for many years. Now I'm there every day, but I see patients who are exclusively those who are adults uninsured who would have been advantaged by the federal program to provide them coverage through Medicaid and its expansion that would begin in January and found the decision by the General Assembly and the state Senate appalling and unwise, almost hostile to the needs of our community, both as the providers who want the opportunity to provide comprehensive and ongoing care. And those who require help to get care and are now falling on charities and unpaid care that they receive at the institutions that host them through emergency visits and devastating episodes of crisis. The opportunity did not arise to make a reasoned argument in front of the legislature. And it was passed in a hurry and a flurry that many of us in this room today witnessed from the gallery and were prohibited even from clapping when more wise points were made on the other side of this topic. Our hope is that through the wisdom of the City Council and other local groups, recognizing the need for Medicaid expansion to support the clinical community and the needy adults who would otherwise go uncared for and ignored that we can pass this resolution and try to get some attention from the public that would alter the perception of the legislatures legislatures in Raleigh. So I appreciate you're taking this on your agenda. It's a thoughtful resolution and it covers many of the necessary points and I hope that you'll endorse it. Thanks very much. My name is Howard Eisenson. I'm a family physician privileged to be practicing in Durham for 34 years. I currently work as the medical director at Lincoln Community Health Center. And I applaud your interest in exploring this resolution. I think that we health professionals are not used to going to legislatures and City Council chambers and lobbying and this sort of thing. It's really not part of our routine activity, but this this whole business of implementing the Affordable Care Act or or failing to implement a central element of it in North Carolina has gotten us out in some numbers. They were 40 or 50 of us outside for press conference earlier and a bunch of us still here. And I think we do the public a disservice if we don't make it very clear to all of you that it is an injustice not to expand Medicaid for the people of North Carolina 500 of our most vulnerable citizens are relying upon us the medical profession and and and also you in government to do the right thing by them. And we must I thought it was interesting. I appreciated that you recited the pledge at the start of the meeting. I didn't know that that's still done. But most of us learned the Pledge of Allegiance by heart when we were kids and when we were children didn't have to mean much. We just learned to mouth the words but really it does now need to mean something. It does need to mean something. And I want to just briefly quote the Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King who stated that of all the forms of inequality of all the forms of inequality in justice in health care is the most shocking and inhumane. And we just pledged allegiance to a nation under God indivisible with liberty and justice for all. So please stand on the side of justice and encourage legislative bodies governmental bodies across the state to join with you because you will be on the side of right and we should do no less. Thank you. Good evening. My name is Mohan Shalakuri. I'm a family physician in Durham, North Carolina. I've been here about 20 years practicing. And I certainly applaud this body to take the time to pass this resolution to urge the North Carolina legislature and the governor to come to their census. And as my colleagues just pointed out, Dr. Howard Eisenberg have eloquently stated that this is completely unjust for them not to expand Medicaid. I was just reading nothing yesterday. The United Nations, the basic precept in there is for everybody on this in this world to have some very basic things food, shelter and adequate medical care. And this is from the United Nations. And so I don't know what's going on with the Republican legislature and the governor. Well, one thing I want to point out is do not lose your heart because McCrory I think is saying half truths. Here's what I mean. So when he pointed out that Medicaid is broken, that's why he doesn't want to expand. It is a half truth. I call it the Macrorism. And what it is is he said Medicaid ran a budget deficit of a billion dollars roughly, which is a large amount. And he says, well, there are a few other administrative stuff that was going on, but any large body like that will have some inefficiencies. But what he forgot or what he misled us in saying is the amount of the budget that was overrun was exactly the amount that the Republican legislature reduced the previous year. So what's the surprise? They did not reduce the Medicaid options and the population is not decreased. So it was a half truth. And so that that we should not ignore. We should push this forward and point that out. The Medicaid system is not broken. Several other folks have pointed out North Carolina's Medicaid system has actually had several awards for reducing the rate of increase of health care expenditures. And other states have actually looked at our Medicaid system to see how we're doing it. Thank you very much. And I think I think it might be appropriate to least read the resolution that we're being asked to vote on. It's a resolution expanding Medicaid, whereas Durham prides itself on being the city of medicine, whereas there are an estimated 18% of Durham County residents who uninsured, whereas the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act provides federal funding for states to expand Medicaid to all citizens earning less than 130% of the federal poverty level, whereas this Medicaid expansion would extend insurance coverage to more than 500,000 North Carolinians and save the state approximately $65 million over 10 years, whereas the Durham City Council thinks all residents should have access to quality, affordable health coverage. Therefore be resolved that, one, the City Council urges the North Carolina General Assembly and the governor to accept federal funds to expand Medicaid in North Carolina, and two, this resolution shall be effective on and at this passage, and shall be shared with the members of the Durham's General Assembly delegation. That's the resolution. We've had a motion in a second. For discussion, recognize Councilor Schuyl. Thank you very much, Mr. Mayor. First of all, I really appreciate the folks that turned out to support this. We have, if we look out here in our audience, we have community health leadership in our community sitting out here, and really appreciate it. And thank you all so much for bringing this to us so that we can take this step. I also want to say it would be awfully hard for me to vote against this, Mr. Mayor, even if I was against it, which I'm not, I'm adamantly in favor of it, but the doctor that delivered my oldest son, Abe, is out here in favor of it. My doctor is here, Dr. Chilly Currie. Dr. Chilly Currie, my shoulder is killing me, maybe we could talk afterwards. And, no, but seriously, it is an incredibly important issue. And I'm really grateful that you all brought this to us. And I'd like to also thank the young man, Anthony Ross, who originated this. So thank you very much, Mr. Mayor. You know, for the comments and discussion, recognize Councilman Brown. Thank you, Mr. Mayor. I just want to echo what my colleague, Steve Scholl said, except it's my knee, not my shoulder. And one correction for the first speaker, I think you used, I really want to thank all of you for coming. We're glad to see you getting involved in this crucial issue. You said what the General Assembly has done is almost hostile. I would suggest that it is exceedingly hostile to all the citizens of this No, the motion for the second discussion. No further discussion. I'm clerk. We open the vote. Close the vote. It passes six to zero. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. You can still stay for the rest of the meeting if you'd like to. All right. No, seriously. I know you've got business to do. So we will excuse you if you need to leave. We're next moving to the public hearings on a general business agenda. Item 31 is a street name, street renaming SN 13000001 Artmore Drive. Good evening, Pat Young with the Planning Department. Thank you, Mr. Mayor, members of Council. Case SN before I begin the quick quick introduction to this case, I can certify for the record that the cases before you tonight that are public hearing items have been advertised in accordance with the provisions of law and we have affidavits to that effect on file with the Planning Department. The item before you now case SN 130001 is a request to permanently rename approximately 150 feet of the current Artmore Drive to the new name of Morningside Drive. What this renaming would accomplish is to allow for a consistent street name to be applied to a segment of roadway that would connect the existing Woodcroft subdivision to a new section of the Chamberlain subdivision. A public meeting on this request was held on May 14, 2013 to receive public comment on this proposed renaming and no comments were received. Following review by city staff, US Postal Service and other outside review agencies, no potentially negative impact to this proposal were identified. And as such, staff recommends approval of the street renaming. And we'll be happy to take any questions and thank you. This is a public hearing would ask all their questions about the staff. No questions of the staff. Is anyone in the audience that would like to speak on this item? Let the director reflect and no one in the audience has to speak. Public can be closed as a matter of fact before the council. The property movement second Madam Clerk, we open the vote. Close the vote. It passes 6 to 0.

They're proposing to amend the future land use map from its current designation of a 0.66 acre parcel located in 1819 rustica Drive, which is just east of South Austin Avenue and north of rustica drive from its current designation of low density residential to low median density residential. The purpose of the proposed plan amendment would be to allow a supportable zoning map change request that would allow the subdivision of the existing property into multiple lots. And this request would result in is compatible with the existing land use pattern, the designated future land use designation for the area and other criteria identified in the unified development ordinance. The planning commission recommended approval of this item at its May 14th meeting by a vote of 11 to 0. And staff recommends approval. I'll be happy to take any questions. I referred to staff report. This is a public hearings and anyone on the council that has questions of the staff. Is anyone in the public that likes to speak on this item either for or against item 32? You want to speak on it? Yes. To the moment here before we get too serious tonight about all these other serious issues. I will be doing a parody satire of Rustica Oaks agenda item tonight for your entertainment for the next two minutes and 45 seconds. I will be in character and it will be sung by my cousin Salmonella. Okay, Salvatore Monella better known as Salmonella. So I'm supporting this agenda item. We'll do this my way. I'll slam the gavel. Let's cut some driveway. Now lay that gavel gravel. Let's cut the greeting and start the meeting. This land was made but it ain't free. You'll have consultants will bring the lawyer. You want brick sidewalks? We want a foyer. You pour the concrete will order pizza burned. This meeting may now be adjourned. This land is your land east of South Alston. There's room for hiking and you can dance the Charleston. Let's subdivide it then try to hide it. That way the Mexicans won't find it. Just make the entrance a gated community. Remember trespassers have full immunity at a nice tall fence and the area grows more dense. This land was made but it ain't free. We called the city spoke to Steve Medlin because excavators had commenced the Medlin. We caught them frackin' near the fresh water well. They flipped us off and said go to bell. Bell is the mayor. A saber two slayer. But you need his blessing and it takes a prayer from Alston Avenue to Miami Boulevard. Let's have some cheaper smaller yards. Thank you. Okay. Any other public political satire. Not meant to be serious or attacking anybody. Just want to leave time for something else. Recognize this is on the amendment now. This is in the zoning piece. Okay. Recognize councilman Schuhl. John appreciate your satire and always enjoy them. But I think we need to be mindful of remarks against ethnic groups and you know to talk about Mexicans in that way. I just want to say I really feel like it's very inappropriate and I know you meant it as a joke but it doesn't come across as a joke. You know councilman Schuhl I want to apologize again if I did I did run it by someone I'm not going to name any names but I had ran it across a couple people first and it was taken as the way it was intended which was ethnic ethnocentric humor. It was not intended. I have by the way let me just say this I sit on a Hispanic community outreach board. I have friends that are Hispanic and I've had friends that are Hispanic for my entire life since sixth grade. So I just want to make that clear. It was only intended as a joke. I know that it was not politically correct humor but that's why I tried to preface it as satire and I I do apologize if I did offend anybody here. That's what I do. I do satire. I do it in cafes and and bars and stuff like that. So if there's any other comments I'd be glad to take them. Except the comments as part of public hearing for the record.

And I know one of our members will not be here at that, but he's consented for us to go ahead without him. Any other items to come before the council? Any other comments? Recognize? I was wondering if it seems to me we have a family here with a young man who maybe was studying city government. I expect he found it pretty boring tonight, but I just wanted to assure him it's not always as boring. Sometimes we even debate. Thanks for being here. Any other comments? Not the meetings adjourned at 746 p.m. Thank you.
