OLD BUSINESS PRESIDENT SCHULMAN: Under Old Business, the Deputy Mayor, Fonda Williams, has informed me he has no old business this evening. PUBLIC SPEAKS PRESIDENT SCHULMAN: We now turn to Public Speaks. We do have two speakers this evening, both of whom have spoke before. Mr. Parker, James Parker, if you’ll step forward. As welc- as always, welcome, sir. If you’ll give us your name, your residential address, please. JAMES PARKER: Hi, I’m Charlie Hebdo. For those in the current media events in the world, you’ll know exactly what I mean. Actually, my name is James Parker. I reside at 630 Penny Street Southwest Southeast in the City of North Canton. Concerning some of Canton City’s Council past desire to make aggravated asphalt application and codified ordinance, whereas the paving or roads after a certain date or temperature would be a crime. My question, why? So that Councilman Frank Morris sitting on his porch ten years from now can find out how the officer who went to enforce the offense of aggravated asphalting was tarred, pebbled and steam rolled? In light of all the problems manifested by police enforcing laws, like getting strangled to death for selling loose cigarettes on the sidewalk, why not let this be your guide? Do not pass an ordinance or law that you wouldn’t shoot someone over it. This council’s reason and logic can be powerful tools, but they can also be twisted and manipulated. Ask yourself, did the means justify the ends? My concern is that the means corrupt the ends. Or worse, become an end in themselves, without this honorable council even realizing it. There’s a great illustration of this in the classic I, Robot by Isaac Asimov. This book written and compiled in the forties and fifties looks towards a future where robots are commonplace in society. They have become so intelligent that they’d almost taken on a sentient type of personality. Their programming at the core was guided by three laws or robotics. First, they could not injure a human or through inaction allow a human to come to harm. Second, they had to obey the orders of human beings unless it conflicted with the first law. Third, had to protect its own existence provided it did not interfere with the first two laws. As the book evolves, despite the laws that guide the robots, they begin their to find creative logical ways around those laws. One robot allows humans to come to harm because it believed that eventually it would its work would cause more humans not to come to harm. Another robot used logic to hind amongst its peers and not do the work it was ordered to do, and it was able to lie to humans. Basically, using pure logic the robots in the book evolve to a point where they can get around the laws that guide them. That speaks I think directly to our human experience. People, all of us, have no problem finding reasonable excuses to act the way we do or do the things that we do. Isaac Asimov governed the robots with in his fictional world with three laws, and even  COUNCIL PROCEEDINGS JOURNAL 103 JOURNAL PAGE -15- MINUTES OF THE MEETING JANUARY 12, 2015 those were twisted and manipulated in a way that deceived and harmed. In the end you must be mindful and careful with what this council reasons itself into and out of. For the end an object of a state’s existence, or city, is not physical might. It embodies might only in order that it may protect and develop the nobler aspects of mankind. In addition to body cameras, I’m asking that the city police department carry tourniquets that cost less than five dollars. They’re combat tourniquets, there’s several varieties. If someone is shot, you need to stop the bleeding and the hemorrhaging immediately. You don’t have time to go to your trunk and get out the first aid kit and search around for the tourniquet. You need it right on your body where the soldiers have them, where the swat teams have them, where they’re just as important or more important than that camera, cause they can stop bleeding. They just don’t take pictures of somebody bleeding to death. Thank you very much. Good night. PRESIDENT SCHULMAN: Thank you, Mr. Parker. Our next speaker is Kimberly Pantoya. Ms. Pantoya, are you here? (Inaudible voice) Oh, good. Alright. That then concludes public speaks. INFORMAL RESOLUTIONS PRESIDENT SCHULMAN: We turn to Informal Resolutions. We have none this evening.

MEMBER HART: Very quickly. For everybody here, please drive safely. Wherever you are going to be going, making it to the TV isn’t that important, getting into an accident. And as a 1975 graduate of Ohio State, I leave you with this thought. Go Bucks! PRESIDENT SCHULMAN: Member Hart, it’s THE Ohio State Buckeyes. What’s wrong with you? He’s so excited, he forgot the THE. Law Director Martuccio. LAW DIRECTOR MARTUCCIO: Thank you, Council, very very much. Second matter, Mr. Parker, I appreciate his passion and creativity. The ordinance on paving does not provide for a criminal penalty, however, it’s simply a marriage of science and contractual enforcement (balance of sentence inaudible). But I understand the point. Lastly, I would be remiss since there’s no meeting next week if I didn’t remind Council that one of your hardest working, longest serving employees is leaving. Her last day is Thursday, January 22nd. Our office manager, Jane Carmen, who has been serving the city for nearly twenty-six years, first under the yoke of last Service Director Bernabei and then under my yoke. Jane, as you all know cause you all worked with her at different points in time, is possessed of an extremely strong work ethic, wonderful intelligence and focus, extremely dedicated to making sure that what was done was done right for the good of the entire city. I will miss her deeply (Inaudible). For those of you who care to, please call her, thank her. On her last day, January 22nd, we’re having cake up in the sixth floor conference room over a long lunch hour, so please if you think of it, if you want to for a call, come and visit and have a piece of cake. And, again, I’m so grateful to Jane Carmen and what she’s done for all of us in the city. COUNCIL PROCEEDINGS JOURNAL 103 JOURNAL PAGE -23- MINUTES OF THE MEETING JANUARY 12, 2015 PRESIDENT SCHULMAN: Thank you, Law Director.
