A special resolution recognizing Voices Corporation, whereas Voices Corporation, founded in 2010, is a community-based non-pro-profit organization headquartered on the Far East side of Indianapolis in a designated health equity zone where life expectancy is approximately 16 years lower than any other Indianapolis Zipco.

And whereas Voices was founded by Keel Wright, a Lawrence Central High School graduate in a former probation officer on the Far East side, grounded in local experience and public service.

Voices was created to strengthen trust between the families and systems and to ensure young people are met with support, accountability, and respect at critical moments in their lives.

And whereas operating across the state of Indiana, Voices addresses the conditions that shape outcomes for youth, young adults, and families, including longstanding underinvestment and neighborhoods, housing security, and unmet mental health needs.

These conditions influence safety, stability, and opportunity, and voices was established to respond with care, consistency, and connection.

And whereas Voices' mission is to create pathways to healing, stability, and opportunity by centering youth and family voices and transforming how systems engage with communities.

This mission is carried out through Voices' four pillars of wellness healed, disciplined, educated, and creative, which guide individual development and community restoration.

And whereas each year, Voices walks alongside more than 1,800 youth and families, many of whom are navigating multiple systems at once.

Today, Voices is a trusted partner to schools, juvenile probation, health care providers, housing partners, and community organizations statewide.

As a black-led organization rooted in lived experience and accountability to community, voices continues to strengthen neighborhoods, advance equity, and build a healthier, more connected Indiana.

Now, therefore, be a resolved by the City County Council of the City of Indianapolis and of Marion County, Indiana.

Madam President, if it's okay with you, I'd like to ask Ms.

Wright to come up and say just a couple of words.

We have incredible community partners and volunteers and support that has helped us get this fire for 16 years.

We meet young people and families at their worst moments.

And it's not always what you see at the headline, it's not always what we see on social media.

These young people are incredible humans.

They have made terrible decisions sometimes, but with a lot of support, affirmation, and uh guidance, we are able to turn things around.

We are proud to be on the far east side of Indianapolis and our home building now, old school 102.

The motion and properly moved and second.

Are there comments from counselors?

Is there anyone in the audience that wishes to speak to proposal number eight?

Please come forward.

Proposal number eight.

Regarding proposal number eight.

You can put the DMD.

No Metropolitan Development Development Committee.

I think what I have to say is along the same lines.

I have no background in politics, and I certainly don't have any expertise in land use.

That is why I count on my vote to protect me.

Decatur Township has been abandoned.

When we try to call on our elected officials, it falls on deaf ears.

What has our democracy come to that there is no one to protect the people anymore?

The problem is we have no definition of a data center at all in our city and or our state.

Now, right now, indicator township.

Over 100 tier two diesel generators could be installed next door to residential homes.

Point of order, Mr.

Just a few hundred.

Ma'am, if you could speak to the proposal regarding housing funding.

I believe that this is related to housing.

This is data center.

You're speaking to data center if you don't mind.

Please speak to the housing proposal.

Sure, it's right next door to houses.

Please finish.

Is that please finish?

Thank you.

Uh sorry, I forget where I left off.

Right now, indicator township, over 100 tier two diesel generators could be installed right next door to residential homes, just a few hundred feet away from people's back doors.

One for one, each of these engines pollutes more than a tractor trailer.

And there will be over a hundred of them.

Every year, for four hours, these generators are going to run, and every time the lights go out.

A hundred of them, right outside your back door.

And this isn't an I2.

The Indianapolis Office of Sustainability's net zero emissions by 2050 goal will be impossible to achieve.

And they should be able to tell you that.

This is one example of many that shows these companies do not care about us.

They are not going to do, they're going to do whatever they want at the cheapest price, but the consequences for our citizens, our city, and our state will be irreversible.

Take a look at the land zoning on the ground right now.

Everyone, even the houses, I2 and CS zones could become data centers.

And they could use whatever resources they want.

Okay, sorry.

Trying to do that.

That's your will you help us.

Will you put a moratorium in place until a definition of data centers and ordinance around them can be crafted?

Thank you.

Please.

Thank you.

Thank you for your time.

Thank you.

Is there anyone else in the audience that wishes to speak to proposal number eight?

Comments from counselors.

Councilor Brown.

Thank you.

Madam President.

I just want to say a quick thank you to Chairwoman Jones and all my colleagues who stay up on the public works committee.

First off, that took forever just to read all the speed limit reductions in my district.

I know that's not the first time you've had to do that.

Um thanks for allowing these to go through.

Umlike uh many parents, I don't have subdivisions in my um district, and so there's a lot of cross streets, 16th to 10th, uh 21st, and we get a lot of cross traffic going extremely quickly down residential streets.

Um, I know we're doing a lot of work as a body on the Visions Air Task Force with a lot more substantive work than simply reducing speed limits, but I do think that this step will save lives, and so genuinely wanted to send my thanks to all of you.

Appreciate it.

Counselor Bain.

Thank you, Madam President.

Uh, just wanted to thank Department of Public Works and Chairwoman Jones uh with her help on getting proposal 48 to where it is.

Uh it's the weight limit restriction on Southwest Drive, which um is a neighborhood that's tucked between two busy uh thoroughfares, and there's an elementary school in there.

A lot of kids walk to school, and we have a lot of semi-traffic that seems to go through there with complete disregard to kids who are going to school.

So this is a um a welcome change.

Appreciate everyone's support.

Thank you.

Additional comments, CNN proceed to the board for our vote.

The proposals carry 22 to 0.

The next item on our agenda is proposal number 46 46, refer to public works committee.

Madam Chair Jones.

Thank you, Madam President.

With consent, I would like to take proposals number 46 and number 57, 2026 together.

Please proceed.

Thank you.

Proposal number 46 authorizes parking restrictions on East 10th Street between College and Highland Avenues.

Proposal number 57, 2026 authorizes parking restrictions on Brookville Road on both sides from Irvington Avenue to a point 750 feet east of Short Ridge Road.

Counselor Bain moved, seconded by Councilor Gibson to send proposals number 46 and 57 2026 to the full council with the due pass recommendation.

The motion carried by a vote of 12 to 0 and I so move.

The motion and properly moved and seconded.

Are there comments from counselors?

Councilor Hart.

Thank you, Madam President.

I'll be real brief on proposal 57.

Just want to say thank you to uh colleagues here and and and committee as well as um ask your support tonight this evening.

Um got support from Councillor Nielsen on this.

This does go through both of our districts.

Um it's just a habitual problem that is in relation to warehousing.

So uh a lot of a lot of trucks parking on Brookville Road and getting a lot of calls from the neighbors ultimately try to solve this uh operationally through the city, and it it just hasn't been working.

So trying to take these extra steps, and I think this can get us a lot closer to where we need to be.

So I appreciate the support this evening.

Thank you.
