250894, acknowledging October 225 as breast cancer awareness month in Kansas City and recognizing June Mitchell for her leadership of the Women of Hope Group.

June is present to receive the special action.

Are you here?

Councilwoman French.

Thank you, Mr.

Mayor.

I'm honored to present this resolution that not only recognizes the importance of breast cancer awareness month here in Kansas City, but also celebrates an extraordinary individual who has turned her personal strength into a beacon of hope for others.

Miss June Mitchell.

Each October we join a national movement to raise awareness about breast cancer.

A disease that affects one in eight women in the U.S.

during their lifetime and also impacts men and families all across and all across all backgrounds.

Breast Cancer Awareness Month reminds us of the power of education, early detection, and community support in saving lives.

Awareness alone isn't enough.

Support is essential.

Navigating a diagnosis of breast cancer takes more than medical care.

It requires emotional strength, community, and hope.

This is where people like June Mitchell and the Woman of Hope Group step in.

For 21 years, June Mitchell has led the Women of Hope Group at Plaza Melly Church with grace, compassion, and unwavering commitment.

She has built safe, empowering space for those impacted by breast cancer, offering encouragement during treatment, and a lasting sense of belonging after recovery.

June has not only supported others, she has led them.

Her work reminds us of the incredible difference one person can make in the lives of many.

And on a personal note, I've known June and the Women of Hope for about 20 years when my mom was first diagnosed with breast cancer, and she went through her journey, and they were a strong, strong support group for my mother and our family.

And then recently, when my sister went through breast cancer in year past.

She is recently now rediagnosed with breast cancer again.

I love you, I know you do think, and I love you, baby so much.

So I want to stress the importance of having that community and that strength.

And that's something that you really really have provided for our family and many, many other women and families across the city and across the region.

So let this resolution be a call to continue raising awareness to support those in our community affected by breast cancer and to celebrate people like June Mitchell, who led with heart and transforms hardship into healing.

Thank you, June.

Thank you, Councilwoman French.

Are there others who wish to speak to the resolution?

Oh, Council uh Mayor Pro Tim.

Thank you, Mayor.

I had to take a deep breath and see if I could say what I want to say without getting emotional.

Um I rise today just on behalf of my mom who is a 10-year breast cancer thriver.

And uh just really want to uplift the work that you all do.

Um we you know, unfortunately, the one in eight who experience breast cancer, it is um not only negatively impacting them, but their family and their support system.

And so I just want to uplift you all, and I want to just take a moment to uplift my colleague because I know things have been rough for you and your family.

You are in my thoughts and prayers, and I I hope and pray that all is well with your mom.

Thank you.

Thank you so much, Mayor Pro Tim.

Are there others who wish to speak to the resolution?

All in favor indicate by saying aye.

I'm all opposed.

The resolution is adopted.

Ma'am, if you'd like to speak it is such an honor to be here with you all today, and to let you know how thankful we are for you and for the jobs that you do.

We are honored to be part of a breast cancer support group at Pleasant Valley Baptist Church.

And we have been doing our support group for 21 years, and we have become so blessed, and we are so thankful for those of you who know about our group, who have uh been concerned about our group, and love our group.

We have lovely ladies who are come to us sometimes very ill, and it is a pleasure for us to pray for them, to come alongside them and walk with them through their breast cancer journey.

And uh I just want to add to this that uh oh, I'm really loud.

Um sometimes um it is so difficult to know what that person particularly needs, but we have a variety of us, all of us have had breast cancer, and we have more in our group, of course, who have been through the throes of breast cancer, and we just are so thankful that we have people who reach out to us to help us and to pray for us.

One of the greatest things you can do for our group is to say a press special prayer for each person who is going through breast cancer, not just our group, but any person who is going through breast cancer.

We appreciate your prayers.

Thank you so much for being here, and uh, we feel honored to be here today, don't we, girls?

See, they are honored.

Absolutely.

You guys come on up.

Hi, thank you.

Let me give her a one.

You give that to you.

Thank you.

All right, and give me a new job.

Thank you by June.

So thank you for having me.

Thank you so much.

That's this college.

What are we talking about?

Well, when do we get to talk again?

We got follow-up to do.

Oh, yeah, yeah.

Now I want you to think of this.

Well, remember our children's for that high school.

How many brothers?

Probably five.

Well, right there.

Just have a drink.

Yeah.

Oh, right.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Well, you are all good.

Just make sure you get that too.

You're free to leave.

If you want to see what happens, you saw it last month.

Yeah.

My brothers.

I used to have a box of clean license.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Kate.

Her name's Maggie too.

That's right.

Next action.

250901.

Recognizing National Health Care and Security Week and honoring University Health Public Safety and Security Team.

Lyndon Bailey and others are present to receive special action.

Hey, come on up.

Councilman Rogers.

Thank you, Mr.

Mayor.

So we'll stay in on the health care theme.

This is National Healthcare Safety and Security Week from October 12th to October 18th.

During this week, we recognize the invaluable contributions of all uh safety involved with health, particularly University Health today.

Uh health care security officers play a critical role in protecting patients, visitors, and staff within hospitals and health care facilities.

Officers serve on the front lines of the hospital, ensuring a safe environment for the delivery of medical services, often responding to emergencies, defusing conflicts, and assisting in crisis situations.

All University Health Public Safety and Security staff support workforce members not only on the front lines of the hospital, but they also help with the overall mission of university health to provide accountable state-of-the-art quality health care to our community regardless of the ability to pay.

Public safety and security build strong external relationships with local law enforcement, including KCPD, while allowing real-life collaboration that helps support the overall safety of university health.

And I will tell you, my wife is a medical professional who trained at University Health, and it's it is it's dangerous.

And these are times where people may be getting diagnosed with cancer or some other life-altering situation, and and all of the emotion that goes into that impacts people's decisions, and rightfully so.

And uh thank God that we've got highly trained, skilled, passionate safety officers that are willing to keep the doctors, the nurses, the professionals, the families, everybody that counts on that hospital, which is our entire community safe.

It's a really hard job, and I wish we had more than a week to celebrate you guys.

So from the bottom of my heart, thank you for keeping my wife safe.

Thank you for keeping all of the other healthcare professionals safe, and I'm glad that we can celebrate you today.

Thank you so much, Councilwoman Robinson.

Um, thank you as well, and I appreciate my colleague for recognizing this important week because oftentimes we overlook a lot of our public spaces and places as it relates to uh public health, public not only public health, but but safety and security.

And so we appreciate all that you do being on the front lines and dealing with a lot of uh different elements, but making sure that people are safe.

We know that University Health is an organization where everyone, if you ever experience gun violence, that's the hospital of choice in the area.

But with that being said, it does add another layer of vulnerability that our folks on Hospital Hill are faced with, and you all are on the front lines, and then as I sit in uh the boardroom for university health, I often hear that you're the model that many other institutions want to follow.

So thank you for your leadership.

Any further discussion, Council, uh Mayor Pro Tim.

Thank you, Honorable Mayor.

Uh and I want to thank our colleague as well for bringing this forward.

Uh, as you know, Mr.

Bailey had an opportunity to work with you and saw up close uh and personal how you how dedicated you are and how thorough you are uh and your team to and the excellent work that you do to ensure the safety of not just uh the providers, the health care team, but also the residents, the people that are there in those facilities.

Uh and and I know the times that I spent in those hospital walls, I felt safe and secure, and so uh it's uh exciting to to know that you've had such a lengthy career working there at Truman Medical Center now, University Health.

Uh and and I know the times that I spent in those hospital walls, I felt safe and secure, and so uh it's uh exciting to to know that you've had such a lengthy career working there at Truman Medical Center now, University Health, and so I just want to congratulate you all and thank you for the work that you do to keep our our residents and uh community safe.

Thank you.

Thank you so much, Mayor Pro Tim.

Councilman Willett, yeah, thank you, Mr.

Mayor.

Uh my grandfather just retired this year from the medical field, and he got a start not at University Health or Truman Medical Center, but City General Hospital in 1962.

Um but you know, health care has definitely evolved over the over the years and what you all see and the circumstances that you uh get presented with patients.

I appreciate all that you have done.

I've been able to tour um University of Health since being on the council and amazed of the type of care that you all do, but understanding the situations where uh what goes on in the lobby, you can't have that come into uh where professionals are working.

So appreciate all that you do to support uh and the health that you do for our city.

Thanks so much, Councilman Willett.

Are there others who wish to speak to the resolution?

I'll just say thank you.

As Councilman Rogers noted at the very beginning, hospitals, health care facilities are often points uh or places in our lives where we have some of our most amazing moments and some of our most challenging ones, and where all of us feel a certain level of vulnerability, as do many who come in and out, ensuring that there is a safe space for everyone to experience those moments, receive care is something that is incredibly important.

You all do it with outstanding dignity, outstanding grace.

I may also note um, even though we don't talk about it a lot now.

During the pandemic, you were a location not just for vaccines but for tests.

You had a number of people coming in and out from the public.

You often have a number of people coming in and out from the public.

You handled it well, efficiently, and respectfully, and that's something you do on dramatic incidents or just on any normal day of the week.

So thank you all for that work and for keeping an important part of our city safe each and every day.

Actually, several important parts of our city, because I know you work not just on the hospital hill campus, but also at Lakewood.

So thank you all so much for that.

If there are not this wish to speak to the resolution, the resolution is now referred to council.

All in favor indicate by saying aye.

Aye.

All opposed.

Resolution is adopted.

One of y'all has to talk.

First of all, thank you for uh having us here today, and I'd like to thank the city council as well as yourself, mayor, and a special thank you to uh councilman Rogers uh for this proclamation on behalf of the University Health.

I accept this proclamation, and uh I see members of our executive team.

Thank you for being here as well.

And uh public safety uh in a health care is a position that we as leaders take very seriously, and our goal is to make sure everyone that seeks care or conducting business at any university health campus uh can come in safely conduct their business and go home safely at the end of the day.

Uh as you all said earlier, health care is changing each and every day.

There's many challenges associated with not just the direct care but also the uh environment in which we work in.

And so we are uh very fortunate to be able to hire good individuals, uh great leaders and great teams.

So I stand here and accept this proclamation on behalf of the public safety division at University Health.

Thank you.

Thank you.

That didn't seem very safe.

Thanks, ma'am.

Thank you, sir.

Thank you.

Okay, thank you.

Thank you very much.

Thank you so much.

Thank you.

Thanks so much.

Councilwoman Patterson Hasley for a special item.

I request that the council now consider ordinance number two five zero nine one zero, which is on the docket for first reading.

Second.

The clerk, if there's no objection, the clerk will make the ordinance title.

Go ahead.

Yes, sir.

250910, designating honorary street named Sarah Richter Wayne, or a portion of Euclid Avenue from the North Line of 11th Street to the south line of 12th Street.

Councilwoman Patterson House.

Yes, thank you, uh honorable mayor.

This uh streets.

We'll just move um waiving the the requirement for reading of ordinances on three separate now.

That needs a second second.

Yep.

That's a real motion.

Any further discussion hearing none of the clerk call the roll Raya Bunch?

Aye.

Curls.

Patterson Hasley.

Aye.

Robinson?

Aye.

Lucas.

Aye.

All right.

Now for those recording, this is when the magic starts.

You better shine.

Councilwoman Patterson Hasley.

All right.

So this request before you uh colleagues is to rename a place an honorary street marker up on 12th and Euclid between 11th and 12th.

And it is to honor Sarah Rector.

Sarah Rector and her family moved to Kansas City, Missouri in 1920, and she invested in local businesses and became known for her philanthropy and civic involvement.

Through the discovery of oil on her land allotment in 1913, that's the age of a at the age of 11.

Sarah Rector became one of the wealthiest African American children of her time, gaining national attention as the richest black girl in America.

Sarah Rector's Kansas City home still stands at 2000 East 12th Street, now known as the Sarah Rector Mansion.

It was a gathering place for community leaders, business people, and advocates for civil rights and economic opportunity.

In recognition of Sarah Rector's historic contributions to Kansas City's economic and cultural heritage, we wish to designate an honor an honorary street name for her.

Furthermore, there will be a movie that details the um the details and details of her life called uh Sarah's Oil, and there will be a special premiere of that movie at Union Station on October 29th, which all of you council members have been invited to, and you can also bring your family.

And so I hope that you will support this action.

Uh we did go door to door on the street.

The city of Kansas City actually is the owner of our 12 of the units on the street, but we went door to door anyway to make sure people knew that we were doing this and that there wouldn't be opposition, and we had enthusiastic support.

Thank you so much, Councilman Patterson Hasley.

Are there others who wish to speak to the resolution?

Councilman Bunch.

Just wanted to uh ask if it was okay if I could be listed as a sponsor because it's uh you see these signs up in places, and it's it's not every day that you get a chance to hear the story behind these signs and what an inspirational story it is.

Um and and you know, you learn Kansas City history every day, and this was a really amazing thing that you brought to us, so thank you for that, and would love to be it uh listed as a sponsor.

Thank you, Councilman Bunch.

Are there others who wish to speak to the resolution?

The mayor pro Tim.

Thank you, Honorable Mayor.

Um, also just want to acknowledge as well that we did hear uh testimony in the MPD committee Tuesday as an additional business item uh to allow for the support in that we know we we had a short timeline, so uh we did allow for that, and I while we didn't take a vote there, I strongly support this as well and would like to be added as a co-sponsor.

Thank you.

And uh does everyone want to be added as a co-sponsor?

All right, that's gonna be good.

All right, is uh uh others who wish to speak to the resolution.

I will just add this, and um this is one reason I appreciate I appreciate all my colleagues, but I appreciate Dr.

Patterson Hasley today, because when we tell the story of the history of our community, and sometimes particularly black history in our community, we focus on a lot of things that while important don't always tell the story of uplift and uplifting people, and I am so grateful that you are uplifting someone uh who first of all was exceptional in the early 20th century, making not just lots of money, but showing an entrepreneurial spirit, leading others to know that they could succeed.

That's the sort of lesson that our children deserve to hear.

That's the sort of thing that I'm so glad that this street sign will help them understand and know more of.

So, first appreciate you for that.

I want to thank the family for being here and my mistake, because I should have invited y'all up when we started this, but we'll make sure we get you up right after.

Thank you for continuing to preserve the story of Sarah Rector, of your family of so many who have done great things in Kansas City on Kansas City's east side.

So thank you for that.

And more than anything, I look forward to not just walking or driving by and telling the story, but more people with his action, hopefully learning more, learning more from the film, and more than anything, learning the story of Sarah Rector and how it can be a great story for Americans today.

That's right.

So if there are no others who wish to speak to this, I think I have to call the roll though.

Uh and so the clerk will call the roll.

Uh first of all, I would like to take the opportunity to thank the city of Kansas City, the mayor, for this opportunity.

I'd also like to thank the DJ and uh Councilwoman Paterson Hazley.

Uh, this was this is an amazing opportunity.

My family here, we're so incredibly grateful.

It costs about $90,000 ish to tear down a house, and so we'll be investing approximately six thousand each.

Fifteen houses been have been identified, and then the um applicant or the partner has identified private funding for 10 additional houses.

So there'll be 25 houses that will be rehabbed and saved from demolition, and then we'll see how it goes and if we want to continue the program.

Okay, thank you.

You're good on amendment.

Do you want me to the motion to amend pass, right?

Yes.

Ordinance is amended as before council now.

Do you want me to tell you what the amendment was?

Up to you.

Okay, I can just tell you what the ordinance was.

Um if I can find it.

Uh this is the annual first quarter cleanup ordinance to address anomalies and the connect in the in connection with the first quarter budget analysis of fiscal year 25-26.

And this would um remove a $250,000 appropriation in the community services and prevention.

Financing governance, public safety review and recommended advance and do pass.

Any further discussion on the ordinance?

Councilman Curls.

Yes, Mr.

Mayor, I'd like to have an explanation as to what the change was.

That was that I'm sorry, that I added that at the very end.

It would remove the uh $250,000 appropriation to the community services and prevention that was identified as a policy decision from the city's administrative cleanup ordinance.

If you recalled, we um we had some discussion in committee that there were certain items that were included in the budget, some of which we removed that were more policy decisions.

Okay.

This I believe was um this would would have been the tips hotline um 250,000 dollars.

And we discussed this we discussed this.

Uh I don't know if we discussed this one specifically, but there were others.

Um that a $500,000 outline item that was more policy decisions that we felt that should have been included in separate ordinances.

We're not saying that we're not going to fund them, but this year the determination was made that the cleanup ordinance should be purely clean up, and that's why we have these other ordinances that tri-share starlight as separate ordinance.

So to make it clear and consistent, these ordinances were or these items were removed and would be included as separate ordinances.

So is there something included to replace those items for that amount?

No, no, all of those will need to come through separate ordinance, much like the Starlight and um Tri-Share Child Care did.

Yes.

Okay.

So these were these were just pulled from the cleanup ordinances, and um they can come later.

Okay to be consistent with the approach that we've taken this year.

Councilwoman Boo.

Honorable mayor.

This ordinance would rename the single terminal at Kansas City International Airport after Harry S.

Truman.

Not the entire airport.

I think that uh is something that we all keep saying, but um it is very significant that we are naming the single um terminal at the King City International after the president from Missouri, Harry S.

Truman.

This project will also utilize first district PIAC funding to install a statute of our statue of our first president of our Missouri President.

Um Madam Clerk, if you will add me as a sponsor to this ordinance, please.

Finance governance and public safety reviewed and recommended advance and do pass.

Are there others you wish to speak to the ordinance?

Councilman Curls.

I'd like to be added as a co-sponsor.

Okay.

Thank you, Councilman Curls.

Councilwoman French will also be added as a co-sponsor.

I just want to recognize and acknowledge and and thank my colleagues from the first district.

Um this has been something that has had broad-based support, including uh from Congressman Sam Graves, I think entire Senate delegations of both of our states, Congressman Emmanuel Cleaver, and others, and so your commitment to ensuring there will also be some monument to our former president is something that will be very worthwhile and benefit generations ahead.

So thank you all for that uh investment and thank everyone for remembering someone who had an impact not just in independence, Missouri, but also here in Kansas City, particularly in downtown Kansas City through much of his career.

Reduce an appropriation in amount 15 million twenty-eight thousand twenty-nine dollars in public safety sales tax fund appropriating twenty-two million dollars from the unappropriated fund balance of the public safety sales tax fund for the purpose of building a temporary module jail facility.

Designated requisition authority, authorizing director of general service to execute contract EV 4177 in an amount of two 15 million five thousand dollars.

With Browning Root Industrial Services for the construction of a temporary modular jail recognizes one is to have salary effective date.

Councilwoman Boo, do we want to start on the amendment before us?

So Councilman Rogers, I believe, has an amendment that is, as I understand it, generated from staff.

That's correct.

Sir Me.

I move that ordinance 250890 be amended so that it reads in the document title ordinance number 250890 is amended, which has been distributed to all council members.

Second.

Moved and seconded.

Councilman Rogers, discussion.

So this adds is Jeff Martin in here.

So it adds authorizing the director of general services to execute an amendment number two in the amount of 1.513 million dollars for the contract of trainer for design professional services related to the modular jail.

So this is just as they were uh continuing that negotiated contract.

This is a new piece of it that you can probably explain better than I can.

This allows us simply to do the design work in connection with facility that would be built.

That is correct.

Thank you.

Motion passes.

The ordinances amended is before council.

Councilwoman Boo, if you want to tell us a little bit about the underlying ordinance.

Sure.

Honorable mayor.

This ordinance would allow for the um execution of a contract for the construction of a temporary modular jail, reducing appropriations in the public safety sales tax fund by 15 million twenty-eight thousand nine hundred and twenty-nine dollars and ninety-seven cents.

And um reducing the unappropriated fund balance of the public safety sales tax fund by 22 million dollars.

Um as you know, uh mayor and members of the committee, we had um a lot of testimony.

Uh we've received a lot of emails.

The finance governance and public safety advanced this with uh no recommendation.

Thank you, Councilwoman Boo.

Is there further discussion on the ordinance?

Councilman Duncan.

Thank you, Mr.

Mayor.

Uh Boo's point.

There was a lot of testimony provided in committee on Tuesday in opposition of the jail, although I know there are some folks here that also um are support this modular jail.

Um to validate uh the folks who support this measure, and I know many of you do.

Um I understand uh the effects on our businesses when we have individuals um such as our homeless folks, or folks with severe mental illness, such as our folks who suffer from substance abuse and live on the streets.

Um we know that we don't have a low barrier shelter.

Uh we know that we don't have the resources available to take care of all of our people.

Um why I'll be voting no that today is because we are doing this first.

We are we are in we are pursuing and investing 22 million dollars potentially um in enforcement and detention before we are treating our folks, before we are looking at an opportunities to rehabilitate and reintegrate our folks.

We are doing this.

Uh we are also looking for we are also looking to.

I know this body is pursuing a permanent jail that could cost 200 million dollars or more.

We only have so much in our public safety sales tax.

And what I would ask all of you to consider is how much is going to be left over for rehabilitation or reintegration.

How much is going to be left over for transitional housing for intentional detox for these things that we say that we want to do?

Are we actually going to invest them?

And if we continue to pursue detention, incarceration, and spend millions upon millions upon millions of dollars on that, knowing full well there are other folks who are pursuing more of the public safety sales tax dollars, how much money is going to be left over for rehabilitation and reintegration?

It's not going to be cheap, but that those funds, we know both from data and from our people who are on the street who deal with these folks each and every day, that rehabilitation and reintegration provides us with a greater return on our investment and better outcomes for our people.

So I would just ask that you consider today and the next day as we continue to have these conversations about detention and incarceration.

What are we leaving left?

The least of these always get eat eat last.

Why is that?

Well, I'll be putting no today.

Thank you, Councilman Duncan.

Are there others who wish to speak to the ordinance?

I'll just say Councilman Willard.

Thank you, Mr.

Mayor.

Well, I understand a lot of what a colleague just mentioned.

Last April, the public came out and spoke and very overwhelmingly throughout the city that we want to do something to address our detention needs.

The public safety sales tax passed overwhelmingly from the Northland to South of the River, East Side.

And we have a duty to have a detention facility here in Kansas City.

I actually think it's inhumane to have Vernon County and Johnson County where we're spending three hours going back and forth to some facilities.

Long overdue.

I think this is a first step.

We have a hundred beds potentially coming online, hopefully, early next year.

But we got to do something long term, and I do agree that upwards of you know 300 million for the proposed facility.

I I think that we can do a lot more with less dollars and still get a good capacity.

And that's a topic for a different time.

But we can't just sit and do nothing over and over again.

We've done so many studies after studies when it comes to public safety needs and detention needs in this city.

A hundred is in the right direction, uh, but uh this also could be something as a modular unit can be going on longer than just five years, it could be something that be built well that could last for 20 to 30 years.

And so I appreciate uh colleagues coming online and supporting this.

I appreciate community leaders.

We've heard a lot of folks, different neighborhood leaders, especially the downtown area, continue to push this issue forward, and I want you to know that the council's listening, and this is our first step, um, but not the last one, and appreciate your advocacy.

Thank you.

Um I I just want to uh acknowledge and and share some appreciation for what Councilman Duncan uh said and is always standing on principle, and I very much admire you for for that, and um and and that you always do, and this one is a tough one for me because I'm uh I straddled that fence.

Um and I think what Councilman Wood actually, it's you know, sometimes we agree on things, and one and this is that knowing knowing the how inhumane it has been to take people to the Vernon County jail, and while I don't I don't like the fact that we have to have places for people to go like this, um I recognize that right now the situation we have is is dire and it's and it's bad.

And I uh and so I will be supporting this as of the need to have something local, um, because the this need isn't gonna go away.

Um, the the you know the the path to decarceration is gonna be a long one, um, but I believe I believe in it and that we can get there.

Uh but for right now, I think that this is the path we have to follow in order to provide uh dignity and humanity.

Um, and so I just wanted to say that, but also I don't want to lose sight of the fact that all the other things that Councilman Duncan was saying about our needs for our low barrier shelter.

Um, you know, what is the status of that?

We appropriated funding to make that happen, and there's certainly more need.

Um we need more support for people who are experiencing uh mental illness and substance abuse, and um, and we need and it and it can't just be a jail.

And so what I would challenge all of us with is is what are we going to do?

Not in blue up in addition to this, um, because it's right, uh Councilman Duncan's right that we're we're we're doing the we're doing the things last that we should be doing up front first as a competitive measure.

And so I just wanted to highlight that and just uh echo a lot of what Councilman Duncan said, even though that I'm gonna be on the other side of this vote.

Um that this is all all of these conversations are hard and and it's and it's and it's this job can be hard for all of us.

Um, but I challenge us all to do the hard work to figure out what's next in addition to this so that we can provide adequate support for our community.

Thank you.

Councilman O'Neill.

Yeah, I just I just want to uh agree with uh my council colleague Jonathan.

Um I do think that there are everything is in phases here, and I do think maybe the maybe it might be backwards, but I do know that in the last six years we have passed significant uh ordinances protecting uh uh violence prevention uh training and and many other things, and that those those go a long way, but I think at the end of the day, we still need a jail.

We still need to recognize that mental health is a huge issue in this city, and um I I know that Councilman Duncan has a lot has a uh ordinance on on the books are getting ready to introduce, and I would I I think I haven't read it yet, but I understand the net the the gist of it and and I do support that.

We do need mental, you know.

Somebody said uh earlier in the year when we were in a meeting that 12 or 15 percent of the beds need to be mental health, which is to me ridiculous.

I I think we have a much larger need for mental health issues in our city, and so I just want councilman to know I'll be supporting what when he comes up with that.

So thank you.

Councilman has it.

Thank you, honorable mayor.

Um, Councilman Bunch, I think asked a question.

I don't know if it was rhetorical or serious about where we are on the low barrier shelter.

So I just wanted to stand up and say that uh we are in the process of executing a contract with Care Beyond the Boulevard.

I believe that contract is in uh procurement right now.

Uh that's something that um I worked on when it I noticed it had been stalled for several months.

Councilman Duncan supported me in that.

Um currently I am asking the city to um get appraisals for another location that could be a low barrier shelter.

I just got back some information about that um earlier this week.

And so if there's an opportunity in the future for the council to support acquiring um a building for an additional low barrier shelter, I hope that you will.

I know in the fourth district, there's another organization that wants assistance with acquiring a building in order to provide homeless units for families, and so uh the public often doesn't know that all of this work is going on behind the scenes because it isn't necessarily time for an ordinance.

Uh, but I want to just be on record that we are working on a number of things to provide uh low barrier shelter in the city for individuals and families.

Councilwoman Robin, we'll go to new speakers, Robinson Rogers will come back to Bunch.

Um thank you.

Um I am too um excited about the low barrier shelter.

I do want to make the notation that that is federal dollars.

Um, and these are local dollars, and we have the opportunity to expand our public safety sales tax to include things like houselessness and social service organizations and things that are not related to incarceration but directly impact public safety, and that was buried in committee.

Um we had an opportunity to re-envision what it is that we wanted to do with our public safety sales tax and start from a place of healing that was buried in committee.

And we found find ourselves now at this very juncture um having to be in the situation where we we have to move forward and have a facility to ensure that our public is safe.

Um so while I will be uh supportive of this, I do think that we do have to think about what our colleagues said as it relates to we cannot federalize ourselves out of this in terms of revenue.

Um the federal government is not going to invest.

We're in a budget crisis ourselves as well as on the federal level.

Um, and so I would just hope that we have the same vigor when we talk about rehabilitation, um, and we talk about 80 million dollars for a park over a highway, and we talk about all the other shiny things that we uh remember the people and we remember true healing because um this is a historic moment um in our tenure as it relates to these decisions that we're making.

Um, and I hope that our children's children will be proud in terms of what this body has done to make sure that we're addressing the root causes as it relates to public safety.

Councilman Rogers.

So we presented the resolution for public safety and security week, and you know, the the people that are keeping the safety university, oh, that's a dangerous job, and it's a lot of that is mental health, and the people that they're that create a lot of the problems are just they need help and they don't need to be in jail.

And the people that they're that create a lot of the problems are just they need help and they don't need to be in jail.

So I appreciate what Councilman Dugan had to say.

And it's it's just a good reminder today.

The goal is to keep everybody safe.

And to me, it's a it's kind of it's a three-legged stool.

We have to have a jail.

That's that's just true reality of it in the short term, which we're gonna build, and then the long term, which we're also gonna build.

The second piece of this that hasn't been talked about too much today is the state mental health facility.

That's good help, we've got beds there.

We need that desperately.

And then the third piece is what we're talking about now, the little brewery shelter.

And that's and that's probably taken too long.

We've had great leadership from some people on the council to make that happen.

So it's to me, it all goes together.

The jail, the low-bearing shelter, and the middle health facility.

It's a long road, we got to get there as quickly as we can, but I think there is some reason to be optimistic about what the future holds.

Thank you, Councilman Bunch.

Yeah, and I just uh wanted to thank Councilman Patterson Hasley for giving that update, and I didn't ever want to appear that I was criticizing the work that was going on behind the scenes, but um, but thank you for that update.

And it's and it's uh great to hear um and uh and to Councilman Robinson's point, we've got more to do.

Um and I also just wanted to note that Councilman O'Neill mentioned something about a lot of the progress that we've made, and what I think is really fascinating and encouraging with this city council is the level of compassion and empathy that the council members are showing in so many of these conversations.

Uh that is a those are things that are are currently lost in the public discourse at the moment.

And um, and so I I that gives me a lot of hope for the future.

But then also noting that when there are these massive holes in the social safety net we rely on the federal and state governments for where do those things land when they slip through local government is what's ended up picking up the tab.

And I think that we're experiencing that more so than probably any city council uh previous to us, the level of support that the local government and local partners are having to provide through through city council actions through philanthropy to cover basic services for people.

Um it's it's a tough time, and I just wanted to acknowledge the challenges that we're all facing and and give us that that that space uh to accept that and see how hard that is.

And um, this is this isn't the fix to that, and it never should be considered the fix to that.

Um so we've got to continue doing that hard work to provide what we can and to continue fighting for the services that we need from state and federal government.

So anyway, thanks.

Mayor Pro Tim.

Thank you, Honorable Mayor.

So this year uh I've had the opportunity to travel to take a couple of trips down to Vernon County with uh some of our civil rights advocates, a couple of council members have gone with me, uh, Councilman Ray of the first trip, Councilman Duncan, the second trip.

I'm sorry, Councilman uh curls, the second trip, and and uh councilman Duncan's aide, our assistant went with us on that second trip.

But what was um really concerning to me was while I know that we have individuals from our community that need to be detained, it is humane the fact that they have to ride an hour and a half one way, so three hours away from any support resources uh that could help them to improve.

Um the situation that we have in Vernon County utilizing their space is while it's better than what was reported last year, they're making improvements, we need to have something here local.

Uh, there have been several situations uh in those travels over over my terms in the six years where at one point they were uh releasing them at a place in the fifth district, and we had to have create all of these workarounds because they were being written released in an area with no resources, no support, and expected to be able to find their way home wherever that is throughout the city.

And so the workarounds that we have had to put in place in addition to the expenses that we are enduring make are not a good use of taxpayer dollars in my view.

I definitely agree with many things that Councilman Duncan has said and and am supportive of making sure that we address the mental health issues.

Uh those challenges are real, and unfortunately, we are seeing a significant increase in mental health issues across really across the country.

So I definitely support that.

We know we need to address the unhoused issues that we have in our city, but I look at this as not an either-or, it's an and because unfortunately we will have individuals in our community that that will need a timeout or need to be uh detained for some period of time.

And can't the city of Kansas City not having an option and having our our our residents because they are our residents have to travel an hour and a half away makes no sense to me.

So I am supporting this, uh, but I definitely support any effort to move forward with additional solutions for our unhouse for behavioral health as well as as we try to improve the safety of our community.

I haven't talked to any neighborhood or any business owner at all that says safety is not a concern.

It is a number one issue in our city, and I think this is one of the tools, one of the ways that we can address that.

So I will be supporting that, but I'm open to any opportunity to talk about other tools, other supportive resources that we can have so that we can address the root causes of the issues that we have for crime here in Kansas City.

Thank you.

I think I'll just say this.

First, I want to say thank you to our staff.

Uh I think they have done impressive work in a short time frame in finding what is actually a humane solution to how we treat people.

If we go back in the past, I think the mistakes that our predecessors made include the following.

In 2009, the city council made an election because we were thinking about inmates, not the public just safety ecosystem, and said, we'll just enter into a contract with Jackson County, County Executive Sanders, others, everything's gonna work beautifully forever.

That's up and we'll and we'll save, I believe at the time, fifty dollars per night per bed.

That's a great thing to do.

Nobody actually looked up kind of what is the impact to the inmate and others, we were just gonna save cash.

In the mid-20 teens, we then start to have trouble with that facility, which itself was having troubles trying to negotiate through it, and then I think staff frankly did the best they could in trying to find contracts that ensure counter to what everybody's actually saying, that there are some jail bed spaces in our community.

They have done that hard work for years.

I commend them on that.

I was on the city council when we were getting kicked out of the jail, and we were going to the Heartland Center for a while where folks were just walking out, one person was killed, another person, I believe, committed suicide at the facility.

We have lots of concerns, and they've tried their best to address them.

I do, though, want to just remind us of a few things.

The hardest part of our job is the trade-offs that we actually make.

In the ether, yes, all the things are good.

We all want to fund all the things.

I think the strongest point that Councilman Duncan makes is that there will be only so much money, and there will only be so much money at some point.

And so we do need to decide as we build out what is our permanent facility, what is our permanent plan with the public safety sales tax.

Because by the way, maybe you all want it or not.

We have police station requests, we have the jail, we have all of these others.

We will have to fire stations up to the two fire stations.

We're gonna have to make a choice at some point.

So while it is very good for, and I agree, I want to help everything too.

I do like the framing and the choices that we start making, start taking away opportunities we have later.

Just full stop.

We also will need to decide, particularly as we have taxing on the general fund itself.

We don't actually have a long-term funding plan for our affordable housing trust fund, which has been, I think, a transformative policy point for us.

We don't have long-term funding really for core services at issue.

They're feeding off of the general fund each and every year.

So I just hope we remember all of this when you get the next ordinance for name your station your whatever.

Because the other trade-off that the city council of that time made was we're gonna use the public safety sales tax to build a bunch of patrol stations.

Maybe good, maybe not.

Many were not in great shape.

Today we have a lot of very nice patrol stations with gyms that we don't use that much, with actually um holding spaces counterintuitively that we don't actually use that much.

So the taxpayers of Kansas City actually have paid for more spaces, which you all may or may not know, but that we're not actually forcing them to use.

Look, I wasn't here in 2010.

I probably voted yes on the public safety sales tax then.

I voted on the most recent one, yes, but I do hope that we actually force these conversations, because my final point will be that it is not nearly as simple as any of the emails we've received have been from whatever side it is.

There is not a you built the jail tomorrow, everything's good.

And I'll just be real about it, right?

Offenders actually will come back often.

There's a reason we have people who've been arrested 150, 200 times.

That is a person who actually does have often real challenges and issues that we will need to find some way to address, or else they will come right back into communities.

And those of us sometimes who grew up in communities with those challenges have known that for years, right?

Right.

And so that's just the one thing I want to make sure we know.

On this, I am delighted by our staff, and I'll commend the city manager on this, that when we got the direction when we gave him the direction on how to build a temporary facility, we actually looked into something that was humane.

It isn't just something where we can drive up some guys with trailers from Springfield and everything works.

We can find something to be certified by the state, actually pass and survive our codes, and that actually is something that does give people the humane treatment it is.

Because it's not one thing that's fair in my opinion to say, yeah, shame on Vernon County and Johnson County for treating people inhumanely, and then we just put them in cages here.

I think we have done a better job with that on this proposal.

I thank you tremendously for that, and I hope that discussions continues.

And as we have more discussions, I would hope all the people emailing us will also say how do we actually build an ecosystem that works long time that includes accountability to every part of the system using some of those spaces that we have and other facilities we funded, and importantly, how do we actually support things like housing long term and all the others?

Because I do this rhetorically in life, we all do this rhetorically in life, which is I appreciate what you're saying.

We're gonna do this, but I still care and God bless it.

I don't think we can be as dismissive to that discussion.

Not that any of you are, but I hope that we actually think about that as we keep going.

That's all I can.

I can talk about it for a while, but I'll stop.

Councilman Duncan.

I have one final point to make, Mr.

Mayor, and just that when we're talking about, you know, how do we how do we take care of the people in our not just in our custody but in our care?

When we think about incarceration, um, all of the medical needs that every any everybody in our care, because they are in our care, all those medical needs, they lose access to Medicare.

They lose access to Medicaid, they lose access to federal federal health assistance, which is also being stripped away anyway, and that now is now our responsibility.

When we put people in a rehabilitative state, we put people in places that they are not incarcerated.

That stuff is not our responsibility, and we get to share that cost burden with the federal government.

So when we think about things these long terms, and is it is it sustainable or is is Councilman Duncan just a bleeding heart?

There is there is a sustainability uh portion of this.

Um so it's not just that I'm a bleeding heart, which I am.

Um because I'm I'm dead if people didn't take care of me.

I'm not here.

That's why this that's why this touches me.

But it's not just that, it's that there is a sustainable function is how do we continue to do these things long term?

That's part of it too.

Is there any further discussion?

The neighborhood planning development committee reviewed and recommended due pass.

Thank you, Mayor Pro Tem.

Councilman O'Neill.

Mr.

Mayor, I'm going to be voting no on this project basically because Flerty Collins is the general contractor.

And while I well I I really love the project, I'm very disappointed in their choices of subcontractors and such so much that we ended up just barring one of their subcontractors because they were not paying fair wages.

They were not they were employing uh different uh different styles of workforce and uh 1099s and and other things, and I think the job had so many uh uh issues uh that I I just can't support giving another million dollars to an organization that doesn't seem to care about the labor that works for them.

Councilman O'Neill, Councilwoman Patterson Hassan.

Thank you, Honorable Mayor.

Um, I am familiar with the um problems that Councilman O'Neill is speaking to, um, and I do agree with with his um complaints.

And um I just want to point out that the company in question, I see their banners in multiple districts across the city.

So they're being hired by companies all over.

So I just want to be clear that this is not something germane to my district uh where the project is happening, uh, because I see actively that they are working um even though we flag them for problems.

I councilman O'Neill.

I and I don't disagree with you, and one of the issues I have is that we we go and punish the subcontractors and not the contractors who hire them.

These subcontractors come in with low bids on prevailing wage projects because they never intend to pay prevailing wage.

Um I want to see more of an effort on getting the contractors that actually hire these subcontractors, but right now we don't have that force, so that's why I'm I'm kind of standing up to this one because uh we know that this the subcontractor on that particular job was bad, but they're bad all over, and we have to clean up our job sites, and uh this happened to be the first one we've actually found these egregious uh issues.

And we have to clean up our job sites, and uh this happened to be the first one we've actually found these egregious uh issues.

So thank you, Councilman O'Neill, Councilman Patterson Hasley, Councilman Curls.

Mayor, I I just like to to your point, Councilman O'Neill or Councilwoman Patterson Hasley.

Is anybody spoke with Flaherty and Collins in regards to this issue?

Yeah.

And was it resolved or not resolved, or they just kind of well this was a subcont Mayor?

Yeah, please.

This was a subcontractor who was interviewed on the job site with several violations.

We uh in our current wage staff laws, which we employed on this particular uh uh ordin our ordinance that we applied to this particular project, we only we only disbarred the subcontractor who is doing all this work.

But I have asked that the law department look at creating a more hardcore ordinance that actually goes to the contractor, the general contractors who actually hire these subs and get them.

So the the to answer your question, we we uh disbarred the contractor, CJR, for their work at the uh for their lack of paying prevailing wage and other issues.

Um but the the general contractor was not uh was not brought into this.

Councilwoman Patterson has the thank you, Honorable Mayor, and it I mean it is a problem because of the layers, and so if you go to the general contractor and say, hey, this is happening on the site, we've discovered it.

Um, you know, and then the developer is even the layer above, and so we do need a way um to deal with that that's more straightforward and figure out who to actually hold accountable.

So I mean, ultimately, perhaps it is the developer, the developer hires a general contractor, general contractor hires subs, subs mistreat workers.

And so that's that's um all of the layers, and so we we don't have a good way of dealing with them.

My point is I know this general contractor is doing a project on the plaza.

So I would like for that project to uh receive some press um in terms, and I would and I would like for any project anywhere to have people on site um looking up, look looking to see what the subcontractors are doing across the city.

I just want you know, equity is all because we know they're doing work all over.

I'm gonna hop in with you.

I very much respect your point.

But we literally have a comparable situation that we voted on like 30 minutes ago on the streetcar issue itself.

Right?

And I assume all of you will probably show up at the opening.

You'll ride the streetcar, we'll shake hands with the people who were part of it.

And we had a, I mean, I was about to pull up the lawsuit.

We had heinous allegations that have been known for some time.

And I think that I'm with Councilwoman Patterson Hasley, not to say we're not concerned.

However, I will say what we elected to do was say, let's build up relationships, let's talk to them, let's come up with all these other prophylactics.

What we didn't do is say, we're gonna stop passing ordinances for streetcar right now because they had a problem.

Now on this one, yes, this was a very important project on Paseo with a roughly hundred-year-old apartment building.

If I were to call some of the work they're doing, it's important to building our affordable housing stock in the city.

And yes, the developer others actually in the subcontractor realm have been imperfect, but I think that is an unfortunate part of much of what we deal with.

I don't look, I I'm not trying to say I I absolutely understand the concerns.

Indeed, Councilman O'Neill has been very consistent, because you brought up that concern with the streetcar issue, too.

I just think to Councilwoman Patterson Hasley's point, I very much feel it and hear it, which is that let's make sure we'll be consistent on what we're going to do with any type of infirmity, but if not, let's actually try to cure it in a consistent way that we do now.

Councilman Duncan Well, Mr.

Mayor, you stole exactly what I'm gonna say, but I wasn't gonna say it that way.

I mean, I the the point that I wanted to make was that you know I wanted I would love loved to hear more of from Flaherty and Sons about what they're doing to handle subs that to correct Councilman O'Neill, they weren't just not paying prevailing wage, they were stealing, and they were stealing only from Latino workers.

Um so not great.

Um I don't think that this this project should suffer because there was a subcontractor that wasn't that wasn't doing the right thing.

But I would expect that they're gonna come back to this to this body with for for more funds.

Uh we we always rib councilman O'Neill for having um subs and contractors show up in person, but I would have loved some type of letter saying, hey, we understand that our subs did some things that not only cast dispersions on us but also on the city because it was a city funded project.

Here are the ways that we are going to correct that action in the future.

I will vote yes for that, but I would I'd still they have the opportunity and a responsibility to provide up to this body.

Maybe the committee do pass.

Mayor Pro Tim.

Thank you, Uncle Mayor.

This applicant is requesting a rezone to allow them to complete an interior remodel of the existing structure into a three-unit house.

The current R6 zoning district does not allow for a multi-unit house.

However, the structure caught fire in March of earlier this year and needs a full remodel, and the city staff found no evidence of the house being legally converted into a three-unit house.

So the variance case from 1985 to allow for an additional unit in an already constructed duplex, but city staff is unable to find any information on that on the hearing that was held, and so therefore we have this request to resonate.
