And I'm just honored that he is with us here this evening.

So I would like to introduce Pastor Oliver.

We're thankful, first of all, Lord, for your mercy and grace that you have bestowed upon us.

It was renewed this morning.

Great is your faithfulness.

I ask you today, Lord, to let your presence just rest in here.

Let this be a habitation for you today.

I ask you, Lord, in Jesus' name to give us peace that passes all understanding.

And as your word tells us, let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable in your sight, O Lord, my strength and my redeemer.

I ask you to bless everyone in this room, bless their families, bless their work.

And Lord, you told us in your ward in Colossians chapter 3 and verse 17.

Whatever we do in word or deed, do all in your name.

And we give you all the praise and glory that's due.

And everyone say in Jesus' name.

Amen.

Proposal number 193, introduced by Leader Evans.

Thank you, Madam President.

Just say a few words while my colleagues are coming down.

Tonight we recognize both a profound movement in our nation's civil rights history and a celebration of community, visibility, and celebration belonging here in Indianapolis.

The Stonewall Uprising was born out of injustice, but also out of courage, courage from people who refused to accept being treated as less than equal.

That moment helps spark a movement that continues to shape conversations around dignity, safety, and human rights today.

Throughout the month of June, especially during Indy's Pride Weekend, the parade, the festival, and community events across our city, we see thousands of people come together not only in celebration, but in affirmation that Indianapolis is at its best when everyone feels welcome to be fully themselves.

As we recognize Pride Month in Indianapolis, we also recognize our neighbors, friends, families, family members, coworkers, public servants, and community leaders that are in the LGBTQ community who help make our city stronger, more vibrant, and more compassionate every single day.

This resolution is both a remembrance of the past and an affirmation of the kind of city we strive to be moving forward, one where everyone feels seen, valued, and that they belong.

As mentioned, this is a special resolution recognizing the anniversary of the Stonewall Uprising and celebration celebrating June as Pride Month here in Indianapolis.

Whereas in June of 1969, the Stonewall Uprising in New York City marked a defining and courageous moment in American history when LGBTQ individuals resisted systematic discrimination, harassment, and injustice, helping to ignite a national movement for civil rights dignity and equality.

And whereas, whereas the legacy of Stonewall is one of bravery in the face of fear of voices once pushed to the margins, rising to demand recognition, safety, and the fundamental right to live openly and authentically, and whereas, while much progress has been made since that pivotal moment, the struggle for full equality and protection under the law continues, reminding us that the work of justice is ongoing and shared by each generation, and whereas June is nationally recognized as Pride Month, a time to honor the history, resilience, and contributions of LGBTQ plus individuals, to celebrate the progress achieved and recommit ourselves to the pursuit of dignity, respect, and inclusion for all people.

And whereas Indianapolis is made stronger, more vibrant, and more compassionate by its diversity, and is home to a proud and visible LGBTQ plus community whose cultural, civic, artistic, and economic contributions enrich every corner of our city.

And whereas from advocacy and activism to family faith, business, education, and public service, LGBTQ plus Hoosiers continue to shape the story of Indianapolis with courage, authenticity, and hope, and whereas the City County Council of Indianapolis and Marion County affirms that every person deserves to live from the discrimination and to be seen as their faux humanity and known.

They are known being belonging to the community, and they call for their home.

Now, here for the be it resolved by the City County Council, the City of Indianapolis, and Marion County, Indiana.

Section one, the City County Council of Indianapolis and Marion County honors the anniversary of Stonewall Uprising, recognizing its enduring significance in the fight for civil rights and equality.

Section two, furthermore, we celebrate June as Pride Month in Indianapolis, uplifting the voices, history, and contributions of LGBTQ residents past and present.

Section three, the council encourages all residents to reflect on the meeting of Stonewall to celebrate the progress achieved and to continue building a city where dignity, safety, and belonging are not ideas we aspire, but promises we keep.

Section four, the mayor is invited to join in this resolution by affixing his signature here too, which he has.

Madam Clerk, or actually, Madam Council Pierce, if you would uh review the ground rules for public testimony.

As we move to the public comment portion uh of this uh agenda, we would like to remind council members and the public of four ground rules.

These ground rules will allow everyone to have a fair chance to speak and to be heard, and it is important that we all observe them.

The ground rules are as follows.

Number one, each speaker will be limited to two minutes.

When the timer goes off, your time is up.

Number two, any public comments must reasonably relate to the subject matter of the agenda item under consideration.

Number three, speakers who stray from the subject matter of the item under consideration or become unduly repetitious may be asked to move on to their next point or conclude their comments.

Finally, attendees who cause disruptions that prevent the council from proceeding through today's agenda in a reasonably efficient manner will be removed.

Please remember that some types of threatening speech or incitement to violence are not protected by the First Amendment, and all we will deal with those issues if they come up, but we do not think they will.

Do I have consent?

Thank you so much.

We'll now proceed to proposal number 120, referred to admin and finance committee.

Gentlemen Scary.

Thank you, Madam President.

Proposal 120 approves an additional appropriation of 2020,000 hours to 2026 budget of the Marion County Clerk County Treasurer for the purpose of uh funding cash calendars passed out of committee 110.

I so move.

The motion has been properly moved and seconded.

Are there comments from the audience?

Comments from counselors.

Seeing them, proceed to the board for our vote.

The proposal carries 25 to zero.

The next item on our agenda is proposal number one twenty-one.

Refer to admin and finance committee.

Thank you, madam president.

Proposal 121 approves an additional appropriation of 1,180,000 in the 2026 budget of the Marion County Information Service Agency.

The motion is properly moved and seconded.

Are there comments from counselors?

Is there anyone in the audience that wishes to speak to proposal number 121?

Uh please.

Now this is concerned assessment and reassessment of property here in Marin County.

Uh you just heard, ladies and gentlemen, when they introduced the bill to uh issue another hundred million dollars in municipal bonds.

This is why our assessments keep going up because they have to point to some revenue stream to pay the dividends, which they're not paying at this time.

Even the city of Lawrence have missed three payments on their actual revenue bonds.

And uh Marin County is here for the same thing because they have bet their uh their future on a pipe dream of having more hotels and entertainment.

You can only get so much.

You can sit at home and watch porn, ladies and gentlemen, and get the same thrill as coming to a pacer game or or uh whatever games that you have downtown because the bottom line is just porn too.

So uh, you know, I'll see you in five years because you check the ISISO, the state board of accounts, and you'll find out that this city have issued over uh 22 million billion dollars in bond issues backed up by abandoned property downtown.

Is there anyone else in the audience that wishes to speak to proposal number 121?

Yes, ma'am, my name is Fabian Brown.

I'm speaking the same sort of general idea that the gentleman before me was speaking in.

I go to Alan Chapel, AME church in Indianapolis.

I've been a resident here.

My dad's Samuel Brown.

Um I've worked and lived in this community my entire life, and I have just never been I'm 23, right?

So never is kind of not that long.

But uh it's just uh dumbfounding to me.

How I grew up in a city sponsored or headquartered or there are headquarters of, however, you want to phrase it, of some of the most wealthy industries in the entire world, and we're all sitting up here trying to figure out where's the money gonna come from.

I have an idea.

How about when I walked when I drove down by Eli Lilly and I popped a pothole by Eli Lilly, the same company that you all want to jump up and say, hey, let's give more scholarship money to, and let's give them more tax breaks.

How about we connect some of this to the people who chose you to be in power?

That's the moment we're in.

We're not in a moment of hoping, and the gentleman just said, I don't know if he's entirely correct, but I've I have faith he seems pissed off enough, excuse my language, that he might have something idea that he knows what he's talking about.

But the smugness and the outright lack of humanity to the people that chose you to be in power, that chose everybody in this room to be in power, and you have the gall to turn your nose up at them and to tell them that they don't have enough money for housing, or that we don't need, we can't promise them money when the when there are record-breaking valuations for all of these companies yearly, and it goes to their CEOs and it goes to their everything else but the communities that put them right where they're sitting.

So I apologize if my demeanor comes off as frustrated because I am.

But I don't want to come off as aggressive because evidently we have to make sure that we protect ourselves from the people that put us in power.

But maybe we should start to realize why that is.

Thank you, sir.

Thank you for your time.

The proposal carries 25 to zero.

The next item on our agenda is proposal number one twenty-two.

Refer to admin and finance, Chairman Muscary.

Thank you, Madam President.

Thank you.

Do you see the move in a second?

The motion has been properly moved in second.

Comments from counselors, counselor Brown.

Thank you, Madam President.

Um, I would urge my colleagues to vote no to this.

Charter schools are already getting uh the lion's share of our tax revenue.

We're about to be faced with a referendum here in Center Township where IPS is gonna have to battle for survival, and we'll have to give away about half of the money that is raised in that referendum that they're gonna be asking for to charter schools.

I think it's really inappropriate for us to continue giving funds to charters.

I'm aware of how the state grants fund works.

Still uh would encourage everyone to vote against this proposal.

Thank you.

Councilor Cahill.

Thank you, Madam President.

I I want to respond to that because I don't know if there's a misunderstanding.

This money doesn't go to the charter schools.

This is the software to uh process their renewal applications and other things required by state law.

Uh the Office of Education Innovation is, we think it's it's either the top or second largest uh charter authorizer.

There's a lot, there are a lot of documents that they have to process, and this isn't money for charter schools, this is managing their charters and their paperwork.

Thank you, counselor.

Additional comments from counselors.

Is there anyone in the audience that wishes to speak to proposal number 122?

I could object to this on more than one basis, but the main basis is the principals on this council are heavily involved in charter schools and their funding.

The state of Indiana and our Constitution that says a uniform system of common schools open to all without cause.

And you people at home, just look at the faces of your counselors.

Just look at them, their arrogance and so forth.

But you know, it's pretty funny to me because I've been watching them on YouTube.

That's a real guess.

But uh, in any case, I was threatened by one of your deputies, Maggie Lewis downstairs, a death threat that I considered, but uh they tell you to come down, right?

And then when you come down here, there's death threats and everything else going up against you, intimidation.

So I'll just keep coming down anyway, because I enjoy it, and plus it's cheaper than Vegas.

Is there anyone else in the audience that wishes to speak to proposal number one twenty-two?

Please state your name.

Sabian Brown, angry black man again.

Um, yeah, here to understand how we have communities that need schools, but we can invest in infrastructure for charter schools, which are stupid which come generally come from families that can afford that sort of education.

The people who can't afford to give their money to charter schools, or the people who can't afford for private education, need the money.

Need the money.

The money, like, how about we take a half a second instead of rushing to give more money to these charter schools and saying, why are we gonna come up with funds for private schools?

How about we just go ahead and help them?

How about we help the people that can't afford their own advocacy?

How about we have help the people that can't afford their own research into all these other things?

Yeah, no, we won't do that.

That's such an absurd idea that we help poor people.

Jesus Christ.

Yes, uh, my name is William Bowler.

Um as uh IPS grad, IEPUI grad, um, veteran, U.S.

veteran.

I've been paying attention to this charter school fight all year, and I've kind of seen a lot of corruption going on.

I actually spent some time and went through the 2024 990s and I actually found 40 million dollars of net revenue of net income from all the charter schools in Indianapolis.

So I'm kind of concerned why there's uh what is this here?

276,000 dollars and eight hundred and nine, whatever that's going to a uh some sort of software revitalization project, which in my experience with the DOD and the military, a lot of this is like grift, it's graft.

Um I don't know why you need a software revitaliz revitalization.

Um, so that's my point of view on this.

Thank you.

Additional comments.

Hi there.

Um Corbin Havener, I just um in this particular issue.

I really need us to consider like what our priorities are for education.

Under Senate Enrolled Act One that forces the sharing of um referendum dollars for charter schools, along with um the um Indianapolis Education Corporation and everything.

Um we have we have run into a system of uncertainty to our most vital schools that serve everyone, that being Indianapolis public schools.

At a board meeting, I believe it was in March.

I attended, and I witnessed and discussed teachers, even one teacher who had been in IPS since 1986, applying and mailing in from her electronic typewriter that if she wanted a job the next year, she would have to reapply.

And that is what so many um teachers who have dedicated their work to IPS have been facing, and that's what we invest our money in, what we supply, we need to make sure that we are supporting an educational environment that supports the organized the organization of the Indianapolis Educators Association and all unions and make sure that collective bargaining stays the stays the standard in education, which charter schools do not guarantee and uh explicitly fight against.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Additional comments, seeing then we'll proceed to the board of our votes.

It is a prime example of city owned property that's uh they have turned around and making it vibrant and being uh added to the property taxes.

So, hopefully we can do more of this in our city and uh uh look forward to my colleagues supporting it.

Thank you, counselor.

Councillor Brown.

Thank you, Madam President, and thank you to uh my co-sponsor as well, Council Gibson.

Um, yeah, for the specific allocation here, just for the folks in the audience since it is public hearing, uh, this would be money to help tear down vacant properties that are then going to be returned to the vacant to vibrant to be redeveloped.

So um this is stopping urban flight helping with redevelopment, it should be I think a pretty solid ask, and I'm urging all my colleagues to support it.

Thanks.

Thank you, Councilor Brown.

That's what's going on, people is coming from this council too.

They're funding it.

Additional comments from the audience.

Please state your name.

I just want to remember or remind everybody that when this country was founded there on the Statute of Liberty says bring me your hungry, you're tired, you're weary.

I forgive me if I can't quote it to heart, but some of us forgot that there's no part of them that says if you have enough money.

I just want that to be clear.

Additional comments regarding proposal number 131.

CNN, proceed to the board for our votes.

Please state your name.

Good afternoon.

Uh with this proposal, um, one thirty-one, there was uh a brief question I would have to ask.

With some of those cadet programs that are being funded for this criminal justice from the criminal justice institution that deals with the health and safety.

Some of these bonds and some of the sureties that are directed uh from the appropriation of um those criminal justice institute programs was not to be funneled to any of the programs with further IC code uh involving some of those bonds of bonds, stocks, not stocks, excuse me.

Bonds, can you can the board at least fill us in the community on how that works?

Because as such, the criminal justice institution of such programs as um the community corrections and uh the track programs, those mining is aren't to be diverted in no kind of way uh or appropriated to any other program or any other funds once they're received to the city and the county.

So, how is that how are those funds gonna be appropriated and then used in the same program that uh is assisted to give those individuals' medications that are in those programs, safe programs or cadet programs.

That's just a question, something to think about.

I've been doing a little research on that, and um I've kind of find that somewhat a contradiction between the local law and the city law.

So if we can um maybe have some answers in that in the next uh program, I would like so, please.

Okay, thank you.

We'll be sure to follow up with you.

Ask the chairman to do so.

Thank you so much, madam president.

Thank you, Councillor Wells.

Additional comments.

Is there anyone in the audience that wishes to speak to proposal number one thirty two?

I know all about this one too, ladies and gentlemen at home.

They built those uh crematoriums over on the parkway, they're capable of burning up 1,500 bodies a day, and that's what they've been doing.

They triage dead bodies from all over this country over in the warehouse there at the uh big freezer there on Keystone and burn them up as they go.

I talked to a coroner the other day.

Mr.

Vaughn, that's not accurate.

Please stick to the it's true.

No, it's not too.

Well, check the records.

I will, thank you.

They burn up 1,500 bodies last week.

That's what they do.

They take it and they get people in the situation like court ordered dope, and then they uh get them homeless.

That's what it is.

They burn up 1,500 bodies last week.

Please state your name.

Hey, look, Larry Bond.

You know, the deal with the streets is kind of comical, you know, because they're not gonna do anything with fixed rate, folks.

You can look at it.

What they're doing is now this money that's been appropriated tonight.

Certainly came from the general fund, right?

That's what it happens.

The mayor's got control of the general fund.

He can take uh 143 million dollars out of uh our highways and so forth and spend it on the super bowl.

He can do that.

That's what they lobby for.

That's what the mayor ballard lobbied for, so he could actually uh have him a sop and play it any time he wants to.

The roads are so bad in this city, you might as well stay home and watch porn.

Additional comments from the audience.

Please state your name.

David Brown.

Yeah, I the idea that I mean I'm not saying that DPW isn't working hard.

I'm not saying that they're not, but the idea that we need to pour more money into DPW instead of figuring out what the effects of all the salt that you're dumping on our streets is, is again what the gentleman said, comical.

Counselor Brown.

Thank you, Madam President.

Um just asking, I know this has been kind of litigated in the public quite a bit, but colleagues to reconsider uh your support for this proposal.

I definitely understand the need for safety and the concern.

However, you know, there were at least two challenges filed among people sitting here tonight about residency requirements in 2023.

This is the only form that we actually have to fill out every year that shows what our updated address is.

I just think constituents deserve the transparency, and I think among all the other reasons that have been brought up, I think that's one good one not to make this change.

Thank you.

Thank you, Madam Chair, and uh Madam President.

You know, I've dwelled on this quite a bit.

If the public wants to find us, they're gonna find us.

It's this is totally ridiculous that we have to hide our names and addresses from the public.

I'm easily easily accessible, and I want to be accessible.

Thank you, Madam Chair.

Hi, thank you.

I just want to make sure everyone knows that uh the election board is who's responsible for vetting our addresses, and that's where that is on file.

The state house nor the administration or any other elected officials in the county have this on their statement.

Um, and this is our personal home address.

This does not change any access to any of us.

We still have our city gov, we still have our council addresses and phone numbers, and our home address is not necessarily the appropriate place to discuss council business.

Thank you, madam chair.

Additional comments, counselor Delaney.

Thank you, madam president.

Um, as a former director of elections for the county, I do just want to reiterate that when we have to file our candidate paperwork, we have to list our address and um in a very public way so that you can verify where you live is in the district.

Um, and because I know that that's there, I will be voting in favor of the proposal.

Thank you, counselor.

And Madam President, that uh is in part a part of your initiative to get our committees out into the public, and it's a little bit more accessible and easier for people to show up and pull in the parking lot.

It will be in their committee room, so we will be able to be televised and have good um recordings and uh volume and speaking again.

It's this Wednesday, June 3rd, 5 30 p.m.

at the Indigo Transit Corporation's East Campus, which is ninety-five oh three East 33rd Street.
