0:05We appreciate the nice crowd this evening, and I have a good idea why most of you are here, but uh that's well worth it, right?
0:12Um welcome to the city of Jonesboro.
0:15This is the city council for Tuesday, November 4th, 2025.
0:20And we're gonna go ahead and begin.
0:22I'll lead us in the invocation or pledge of allegiance, and Councilman Porter will lead us in invocation.
0:31I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America and to the Republicans under God.
0:48Dear Heavenly Father, thank you for your bountiful provision.
0:53Thank you for the gift of life, and thank you for our public servants who risk their own lives to protect others.
1:00We ask you to give us wisdom and courage in our decisions tonight.
1:04Help us to act justly, love mercy, and walk umbly with you.
1:10This and then we ask in the name of Jesus.
1:16Thank you, Councilman.
1:18Um Council, if you would please go ahead and mark your ballot for being present.
1:48Well, good evening, council, and it's always a pleasure to stand before you, especially when we're bringing accomplishments among our community and their achievements.
1:58First of all, this evening, I'd like to recognize Danny Kapalis, Sarah Doss, Sarah Rickert, and Adam Larson.
2:06If y'all would please come forward.
2:16Well, how about two on each side?
2:18That'll work out just great.
2:20So the reason these individuals are coming forward is because Danny uh this year uh attended the Arkansas Recreational Park Annual Conference.
2:32And in doing so, this group, due to their leadership, was recognized as festival event of the year five through ten years.
2:42It's quite an accomplishment.
2:44It's not just one year based, it's five to ten years.
2:49So this is Jonesboro Parks and Recreation.
2:52And let me read this proclamation on your behalf.
2:56Whereas Joy Fest is a collaborative effort between the City of Jonesboro Parks and Recreation and the downtown Jonesboro Alliance.
3:03Whereas Joy Fest began in 2019 with a 20-foot Christmas tree, a mayor oral proclamation, and a simple refresh refreshment table.
3:12That's all there was, right?
3:15And has evolved to a premier Christmas celebration with a 55-foot tree, corporate sponsors, and is attended by thousands of people.
3:23Joyfest continues to grow by incorporating Winter Wonderland and the Joy Fest Tree Trail, featuring vintage holiday scenery.
3:32Whereas the centerpiece of Joy Fest is now a giant fair swell with tens of thousands of lights.
3:39Skating, live music, life size snow globe, snow in the air, food trucks, and photo with Santa are features of the most wonderful time of the year festival.
3:48The Arkansas Recreation and Park Association recently awarded Jonesboro Joyfest, Festival of the Year for their end at their annual conference.
3:58Joyfest 2025 begins December 6th in downtown Jonesboro.
4:04So I there now for Harold Copenhager, mayor of the City of Jonesboro, and by the virtue of the city to declare December 6, 2025 as the official beginning of the season of Joy Fest in Jonesboro, Arkansas.
4:20Congratulations to you all for making wonderful.
5:00Well, it is always a pleasure to see our youth in the community excel.
5:03And more importantly, for them to be recognized by their city for their achievements.
5:08So I'm proud this evening to bring forward and recognize the success of the Jonesboro trap team members at the AIM Grand National Trap Shooting Championship.
5:24We do glow in the dark trap shooting, by the way, on Fridays.
5:27So if you would bring your team forward if you would.
5:33That's a new one, buddy.
5:36If they would stand with their back.
5:44And Joey, you can stand up here if you would.
5:53It's always happy to see.
5:54I enjoy shooting myself, but I can't achieve the accomplishments that y'all are doing, so keep up the good work.
5:59And representing more importantly, our community.
6:01So I feel it's important that you be recognized for your efforts.
6:05The Jonesboro trap team recently completed the 2025 AIM Grand National Trap Shooting Championships tournament in Sparta, Illinois.
6:13Youth competing as five person squads, both as individuals and as squad, and all 30 team members came home with medals.
6:23And no other organization competing had more squats.
6:32The JTT Young Guns were runner up pre-sub champions for nine to eleven year olds.
6:38The JTT Diamond State were runner-up sub junior champions for ages twelve through fifteen year old.
6:46The JTT Dirty Dusters.
6:49Man, I like these names, man.
6:51Dirty Dusters placed first in the sub junior class A championship for ages twelve through fifteen year olds.
6:58The JTT uncoachables.
7:16Placed first in the junior gold class D championship for ages eighteen to twenty-one years old.
7:21And some of them are already off to college, correct?
7:23ASU shooting sports, coached by Jonesboro trap team, won junior gold class A runner-up, tying for first place in ages eighteen through twenty one.
7:34Ten individual awards were also achieved and were acknowledged in this proclamation.
7:40Now if you would, if you're here, I'm going to read a few names.

8:51So I there now for Mayor Harold Copenhagen by the City of Jonesboro and the Virtue Authority vested in me by the laws of the state of Arkansas do hereby proclaim November 4th, 2025, Jonesboro Youth Shooting Sports Day.
9:06Congratulations, everybody.
10:44It's just mainly for so I don't keep hitting it on stuff.
10:51You don't want to knock that cover off either.
10:55Is it up there still?
11:00So I don't know right behind it, too.
11:04You should see the other guy.
11:17Thank you very much for allowing us to have that time and to uh show off some members of our community.
11:24I always think that's very important when they achieve it at such a high level.
11:27Next we'll move on to item number five.
11:29These are items on consent agenda.
11:31Move to adopt unless changes are noted.
11:34Do we have a motion on the floor?
11:39If you would please go ahead and cast your ballot.
11:52Okay, items on consent agenda do carry.
11:55Now we'll move on to items on new business, and these are ordinances on the first reading.
12:00Carol, we've got ordinance 2503.
12:03Move we suspend the rules and offer by title only.
12:07Do you have a motion and second on the floor?
12:09All in favor say aye.
12:12An ordinance to amend chapter six alcoholic beverages to comply with changes to the Arkansas law regarding private club permits.
12:19Do we have any discussion or questions by council?
12:23Anyone in the audience?
12:27Anyone in the audience?
12:29I don't see anyone, so that ordinance will now move on to its second reading.
12:34Now we'll move on to ordinance 25037.
12:38Move is suspend the rules and offer by title only.
12:47An ordinance to amend chapter 117, Article 8, Section 117-324G to remove the requirement to have a valid registration or license on a boat, trailer, or recreational vehicle parked outdoors on residential lots in the city of Jonesboro.
13:02Any discussion by council.
13:25But I'm saying so sitting in my yard, how long of a time are we talking about that someone does not have to well that it's kind of a layered question?
13:37One, code enforcement has plenty of tools to fight blight if it's a blighted situation.
13:42But two, like if you look at say ATVs or UTVs, most people don't get those actually registered.
13:48Uh business ordinance would imply that you have to do.
14:27Tags are not a part of that equation.
14:29It has to have other multiple components that are wrong with it.
14:32So this ordinance just kind of makes it more consistent with the way that we treat vehicles when it comes to to boat trailers and UTVs.
14:39And you know, it may be not all that relevant in the City of Jonesboro, but on some of your pieces of property that are larger, somebody may have a utility trailer that never leaves the property but is used to haul firewood around or hay rides or whatever that may be.
15:00And this just removes the fact that a perfectly fine trailer may not be registered and may not be used for street use, but somehow be against the city code of ordinances and it just gives better direction or enforcement officers to address blight and not necessarily technicalities.
15:09But to be clear, if it's used on the street, it has to comply with all of the other correct.
15:14I just didn't want people to have an unregistered vehicle or trailer or something like that, and then all of a sudden they're on the road.
15:20Well city says I don't have to.
15:21No, that's not what this says.
15:26Any other questions by council?
15:29Anyone in the audience?
15:36You would please state your name and address.
15:39Patty Lack, 4108 Poor Sale Road.
15:41I was wondering if Scott could come up here because I tried looking at the 17324 to look at saying that nothing else in that was going to change.
15:50I'd like to know what the ordinance is that if someone has a trailer parked out in front of their yard, how long can it stay there without someone calling code enforcement?
16:04Or do we call we have that right?
16:06So I was wondering if it's that all your questions.
16:09Do you have another question or is that it?
16:10Well, how long how long can a car or a trailer be parked in front of uh a house?
16:17Um, even whether it's registered or not registered without making kind of why aren't they moving it?
16:25Roper, if you would please absolutely nothing.
16:27Nothing to do with where trailers are parked.
16:29There's ordinances in place that dictate where trailers can be parked and where they can't same with vehicles, whether they're in OP or where they're parked, we can well we can deal with those, but this has nothing to do.
16:40This is strictly talking about registration of trailers.
16:46Any other questions from the audience?
16:51Well, excuse me, sir.
16:52Please come forward, state your name and address first.
16:56It's uh Tommy Likey.
17:00I live at 1003 West Matthews, and I'm listening to this.
17:04If a car sit or truck or trailer sitting on out in the street, it's not sitting in the yard.
17:13And it if it's sitting in the street, then it has to be licensed.
17:17She has to follow the rules of the state.
17:19So just if it's sitting in the street, it can't sit here.
17:23I mean, that's the way I understand it.
17:25I don't know if I'm clarifying it for anybody or not.
17:29If I'm in there, by all means there can be other things that affect it sitting in the street, whether it's legal to park a trailer there or not, Parker.
17:35There are other ordinances that deal with that and other state laws that deal with that.
17:39This only applies to whether it has to have a tag.
17:41If they're in the yard.
17:44Well, if they're in the street, they have to have a tag because they're on the street.
17:47That's the clarification I was curious about.
17:51Any other questions from the audience?
17:57So that will now move on to its next reading.
18:00Now we'll move on to ordinance 25038.
18:03Move is suspended rules and offered by title only.
18:06Do you have motion on the floor and a second?
18:08All in favor say aye.
18:11An ordinance by the city of Jonesboro to place various traffic signs at designated locations as determined by the traffic control committee.
18:17Any discussion by council?
18:22Anyone in the audience?
18:24Anyone in the audience?
18:28If you would uh that'll move on now to its next reading.
18:32Now we'll move on to ordinance 25039.
18:35Move we suspend the rules and offer by title only.
18:38Do we have any discussion by council?
18:44Anyone in the audience?
18:45This is just a late title.
18:52Uh all in favor, say aye.
18:55Do we have any discussion by council?
18:57Well, let me an ordinance to add section two-289 to the Jonesboro Code of Ordinances titled Firefighter Bill of Rights.
19:06Now any discussion by council.
19:10Anyone in the audience?
19:14I don't see anyone, so that'll move on now to its second reading.
19:18Now council, we'll move on to item number seven.
19:20These are items on unfinished business ordinances on the second reading.
19:24The first ordinance is 25035.
19:27Ordinance for the approval of an application for a private club permit transfer of location for the parsonage LLC.
19:34Do we have any discussion by council?
19:38Anyone in the audience?
19:43I don't see any, so that will now move on to its third reading.
19:47Now I'm gonna move on to ordinance 25034.
19:52An ordinance authorizing Mid-South Auto Service to do business with the City of Jonesboro.
19:58Do we have any questions from council?
20:03Do have a motion to adopt any discussion by council.
20:08Mayor, could you just fill in the blanks here on this one for us?
20:15Steve, would you like to come forward on this?
20:19Authorizing Jonesboro Auto Service.
20:34I'm not what was the question exactly.
20:36I mean, I see he's a city employee, and we're gonna maybe do business with him, but kind of is it a full-time city employee?
20:42Like could you just color the picture for me a little bit?
20:45Well, uh in all situations, we we we would have any individual or entity that might have a conflict of interest would come before this council for approval of an ordinance, adopt an ordinance to do business with that entity or person or individual.
21:07Uh this particular individual, we've done work with them for quite some time.
21:12They're now an employee, so we're just uh doing the work to adopt this ordinance so that we can continue doing business uh with that individual.
21:24Uh it's it's a situation where there have not been any issues relative to the work, the degree of the work being performed, or the expense of it relative to other situations we have.
21:38So it's just simply ratifying that we can continue to do business with this person.
21:46And that employee is Justin Tittle.
21:48He is owner and he owns an interest in Mid South Auto Service just for clarification for the public.
21:55Any other questions by council?
22:01Anyone in the audience?
22:03All right, council, if you would please go ahead and cast your ballot.
22:14And that does carry.
22:16So now council will move on to the next line item, and that is the mayor's report.
22:21So once again, good evening, everyone.
22:23And in addition to tonight's agenda items and proclamations, I have a few updates that I think you'll enjoy hearing about.
22:30Last week I had the honor of speaking at the Arkansas Department of Transportation Conference, which was held right here in our hometown.
22:39We had more than 400 attendees, exactly.
22:42I think we had 450 attendees for the conference.
22:45It's the first time that RDOT has held a statewide conference, and it was right here in your own community.
22:50Many visiting Jonesboro for the very first time.
22:53It was a great opportunity for us to showcase what makes our community so special.
22:58From a beautiful Arkansas State University campus to our growing downtown to even our shooting range and recreational areas.
23:05Let me go into a little bit more detail.
23:07Also, what that meant was that we have the opportunity to provide a showcase area for many of our DOT employees that have never been here.
23:19About 25% have never been in Northeast Arkansas, much less Jonesboro.
23:24So their first impressions were very keen, and obviously the people had a lot to do with it.
23:30But more importantly, Jared Wiley is the executive director now of our DOT.
23:34He's an ASU graduate, and many of his team members are also Arkansas State University graduates.
23:40So I'm excited that through the years and and uh a little bit of uh prodding through the City of Jonesboro, RDOT is now going to be opening an office right here in Jonesboro.
23:53It's their only office outside of Little Rock and Fayetteville, and it's a big deal for us.
24:05And with that, uh hopefully can expedite Northeast Arkansas projects.
24:12So this is very important to the growth, not only continued growth of Jonesboro, Arkansas, but Northeast Arkansas.
24:19So we appreciate the investment that RDOT sees in Jonesboro and Northeast Arkansas, and we're looking forward to many good plans in the future.
24:29We also had the pleasure of welcoming a new national organization to town, the United Breast Cancer Foundation.
24:36This nonprofit provides incredible support for patients and families by helping with everyday essentials and emotional care.
24:43Their ribbon cutting was a heartfelt event, and we're so proud that they've chosen Jonesboro to make it their new home.
24:50And they come all the way from New Jersey.
24:53But more importantly, I think the one thing that was really reiterated by their executive director was the fact that the people in Jonesboro is what made it a reality for them to call it their home.
25:06We've already mentioned Joy Fest, which is coming up soon, but we just wrapped up also a fun-filled Halloween week.
25:13Rain or shine, the Jonesboro police and fire departments hosted their annual trunk retreat downtown.
25:20And thousands of kids turned out.
25:24I really appreciate the efforts of our community members that weathered the storm from two to three o'clock in the afternoon preparing hot dogs, hot chocolate, and everything else for many of our youth.
25:36We anticipated about four or five thousand youth turned out for the event.
25:42So again, volunteers stepped up, and without them we couldn't have had that happen.
25:46So the community spirit is something that we can all be proud of.
25:49There were also Halloween celebrations around town Friday, including Pathways and ERISA Health.
25:55I had the privilege of helping judge both costume contest and a chili cook-off that day, and I'll have to admit the chili was a little tough, but it was tasty.
26:04Tony Thomas kind of uh he didn't inform me that there was going to be a chili contest, but uh he was a judge as well, and he broke out in a sweat, so that was a pleasure for me to see.
26:13The weekend stayed busy with the Renaissance Fair at Crackhead Force Park.
26:17From what I saw, the event was really growing.
26:19It's a wonderful to see so many people getting into the spirit of jousting and enjoying our park.
26:24We had several thousand people attend that from Friday through Sunday afternoon.
26:30Saturday, we held our annual Veterans Day Parade.
26:34You know, I've been attending that parade for over 15 years.
26:38And I'll be honest with you, I'm seeing a decline in our veterans in the community that are present.
26:46World War II veterans are no longer present.
26:49Our veterans uh from other wars are diminishing in size.
26:55So it reminds me of the importance of what we do for our veterans in our community.
27:00And as long as I'm mayor, we're going to support, we're going to do everything we can for second chance opportunities and provide the best that we can for our veterans.
27:12Finally, I'd like to offer congratulations to Scott Hollingshead and our maintenance department for being selected as employee of the month, and it's again sponsored by First Security Bank.
27:21Scott's dedication and hard work truly make a difference, and we're lucky to have him on the team.
27:26So thank you for our all continuing to make Jonesboro such a vibrant and welcoming place.
27:31There's several other things that I'd like to mention.
27:33Uh, number one, I'm really excited to say I just got confirmation.
27:36I'll be making an announcement of a new director of our grants department, hopefully by the end of the week, but I have confirmed that, and uh so I'm looking forward uh to the assistance of that individual to help move our community forward.
27:51Also, I would like all of us, and many of us are well aware of the passing of uh my former um mayor, uh Harold Perrin's daughter, uh, also keep he and his wife and the rest of their family in their continued, we need to continually pray for them as they um go through some dark times.
28:14So we need their recovery.
28:19Now, council, I want to say just a few more words.
28:22A recent post has been circulating around social media sites implying that city officials and staff were served by U.S.
28:33That did not happen.
28:36Similar post began appearing more than three years ago when council was in the process of creating the animal rides and exhibits ordinance that was eventually unanimously passed.
28:49The ordinance requires that any person, vendor, group, or business wishing to charge a fee, seek monetary donations or receive any financial benefit for any other activities associated with animal rides or displaying of animals in the city have liability insurance in case someone gets hurt.
29:11And permission of that property owner that their rides or exhibit are being held at.
29:26Sadly, because of these posts against the good people of our animal services department and multiple local animal support agencies, there will be no low-cost animal shock clinics in November or December, in an effort to not unfairly place volunteers in a position where they do not become a target of misinformation and attacks.
29:51Due to the fact that three years ago a lawsuit was filed, I will defer to any other question to the Arkansas Municipal League Legal Counsel.
30:02Also, following a recent public safety center task decision to endorse construction of the E 911 real-time crime center facility on the 400 block of West Washington.
30:23For clarity, had the property on Caraway been recommended by the task force, a contract to purchase the land would have been submitted to council for approval.
30:35That legislative step is not necessary since the city owns the Washington location.
30:43The request for qualifications, which many of you know, council is an RFQ process.
30:49How the city selects a construction manager was completed just yesterday in accordance with our professional services guidelines and will be considered by the finance committee on November 11th, and if approved, City Council on November 18th.
31:07So I will close by saying that I've been asked by multiple residents what they could do to dispel rumors and attacks they see circulating on various topics.
31:18My response is that any time, any time you hear something that you're concerned about, do the research yourself, and don't assume what you read is true.
31:28Jonesboro is not the exception to misinformation plague across our country.
31:33It just hits harder when you see wonderful people doing wonderful things, and they are targeted because of someone's self-interest.
31:42That's the end of my comments.
31:44Next, we'll move on to item number nine, and that's city council reports.
31:50Um I would like to mention that the finance meeting should be moved from Tuesday to Thursday due to Veterans Day on Tuesday.
31:58We normally have our meetings on Thursday, and I just wanted to make sure that people know that it's in our it happens automatically when it's when it's a federal holiday.
32:11Finance meeting will be on Thursday versus Tuesday next week.
32:15City Council reports.
32:18I'd just like to add on what you said, Mayor.
32:21The the uh inaugural Arkansas Transportation Summit was well attended.
32:25I made all four days of that.
32:27We were represented fairly well by people on uh both policy committee and technical advisory committee, and Craig and Darrell Smith both were in attendance.
32:36Uh they really enjoyed their time in Jonesboro.
32:39A lot of them, like you said, hadn't been here.
32:41They were very impressed.
32:42Uh Lee and them did a great job uh hauling them around on the trolleys.
32:46They really enjoyed those.
32:47They that's the first time they'd seen those, so they really liked them too.
32:50Even uh Jesse Jones with the Highway Department, some of the people you said you know hadn't seen them yet.
32:56They they rode on them and enjoyed them as well.
32:58But it was uh it was really good, and Jared Wiley was tickled to death.
33:02He said he intentionally brought that here because of his association with Arkansas State University and and Jonesboro, and he really likes Jonesboro and a lot of his staff is they are graduates from the engineering program at Arkansas State.
33:15But he wanted to showcase and highlight Jonesburn.
33:17I think it did a good job.
33:19Uh but it was it was really, and and Marvin, I gotta say this about Marvin Day, his bridge county bridge operation.
33:25I mean, man, there's a bunch of them from our dot went and toured that.
33:30They're looking at possibly adopting something like that on the state side, but they were uh very complimentary to the bridge program as well.
33:38But it really was a great conference.
33:39I asked him if he'd bring it back.
33:41He said he'd see what he could do.
33:42But everybody did enjoy it, and Jonesboro welcomed them uh and showed them every hospitality, so it was uh it was really neat.
33:52We can't we can't bring people to our community, John, unless we have good highways to do it.
33:57So that partnership is very key and evident.
33:59So uh I appreciate the technology that they also brought.
34:03Uh, there was a lot of new innovative systems out there from hard breaking to monitoring a lot of our community that we can do uh expedite things and for sure.
34:12I've got to do something else.
34:13They uh they did an analysis on Jonesboro access in and about the city, and believe it or not, we had one of the best accesses throughout the city of any city in the state.
34:25We uh they said from any destination or any origin or origination to a destination, the typical in Jonesboro was 15 minutes, 15 minutes.
34:34Now, I know that sounds like when you're in high traffic going across town, but I've checked it several times this week because that even blew me away a little bit.
34:43But pretty much you can get anywhere you want to go around town in 15 minutes.
34:46So I told my wife quit complaining about traffic.
34:50It's good to have that problem when you're out there and you see that traffic.
34:53There's a lot of cities around Northeast Carlson, so I'd love to have that traffic problem.
35:00So we're blessed, but everybody really enjoyed it and they they like the people in Jonesburg, and it was really a good event.
35:04Thank you for your attendance.
35:16Uh, just real quick, Mr.
35:17Rickert, the executive director for the AMP commission was here earlier, and he shared with several of us that they did pour the side walls on the competition pool at the Ridge Athletic Center today, and walls will start going up as early as next week.
35:31So exciting times for for sports in Jonesboro.
35:38Just a comment for the city attorney.
35:40Carol, would you give us another uh written update of the cases we have going on?
