PRESIDENT SHERER: You need to go to the podium, please. KIMBERLY BELL: What am I not allowed to say? (Laughter). PRESIDENT SHERER: (Inaudible). Now, I’d like to please remind you that you have three minutes, please. KIMBERLY BELL: Oh, so I can say what I want. PRESIDENT SHERER: Could you give us your name and residential address?

KIMBERLY BELL: 135 - 17th St. NW, Canton, Ohio. PRESIDENT SHERER: Thank you. KIMBERLY BELL: I want to talk about why y’all wasted so much money, 12.3 million...on...was that really necessary? What is a Centennial Plaza? What is that? That was a waste. That was wasteful spending, 12.3 million. I could...I could have thought of a thousand things you could have spent that money on...to help these young men and women get jobs. I still got two minutes. Got jobs...get jobs and stop the violence. (Inaudible) to shoot every week, or every...a..bout...at least five out of a month you hear of an African American young man done lost his life over gun violence and not neither one of y’all up here did anything about it. (Inaudible)...the Mayor did go visit Sabrina Ballard, so I take that back. He did go visit with her and I don’t know if he visit with any other ones, but...to my knowledge, maybe one other. But this is ridiculous, 12.3 million on a Centennial Plaza and these men are killing each other every weekend. You can’t pay them to go to trade school? You can pay them to go back to col...back to high school and get a diploma? You can’t...you can’t do anything with 12.3 million dollars? Other than...now the taxpayers are gonna pay for the drug use, the needles that’s on the property; they’re going to pay for the vandalism; they’re going to pay for the..the...uh...uh...uh...the drunk who’s sleeping there under... with the blanket; you’re going...the taxpayers are going pay for, let’s see...what else can I think of...needles, loitering, vandalism, you know it. They’re going to be stuck with the bill. What’s your name? PRESIDENT SHERER: What is my name? KIMBERLY BELL: Yeah. PRESIDENT SHERER: My name is William Sherer. KIMBERLY BELL: Okay, Mr. Sherer, like I said, I’ve never done this before, but it’s time somebody speaks up to you guys and stand up and tell you...and then the streets. You pay all this money for the streets. I took the Mayor down a street on...on...between 6th.....Spring and 12th to 6th....up to 19th Street. (Inaudible) has never been...it’s been patched but has never been repaved. I took him from Cherry to Gibbs, on 6th Street. You have to drive on the side of the road, almost on the sidewalk so you don’t tear your car up. I put in a...um...request to get my...my...my tire...my rim fixed a few years ago. You guys denied it. I knew it was. You don’t pay... but you spend money on...I’ve counted almost...almost a million dollars here, but I don’t see nothing that has anything to do with the gun violence or anything else that’s going to help the city do better. PRESIDENT SHERER: Thank you, Ms. Bell. Our next speaker is Annette Ball. Annette, could you please step forward and give us your name and residential address, please. ANNETTE BALL: Yes, I’m just like the sister there. My name is Annette Ball and uh...my address...the building that I was speaking about is at 1231 Warner Rd S.E. (Inaudible). MEMBER SMITH: Could you speak up, Annette, please. PRESIDENT SHERER: You might want to hold that down just a little bit. COUNCIL PROCEEDINGS JOURNAL 107 JOURNAL PAGE -418- MINUTES OF THE MEETING SEPTEMBER 30, 2019 ANNETTE BALL: Oh, okay. Okay. The address I’m speaking for tonight is...uh...at 1231 Warner Rd. S.E. and I have cried out for a...a couple of years for help, but uh...I had went over last week and uh...my building was vandalized. The windows was broke out, I had put...secured the building with glass block windows and uh, the brock them all out. They went in and took all my uh...supplies and stuff...stuff that I was fixing the building up with, all of my equipment like my saws and stuff. My electric stuff. Now they’re trying to tear it down but it...they...they’re not tearing it down because I wasn’t fixing it up, they’re tearing it down only because of vandalism. How you stop a person from, you know, breaking into something when you’re at home sleep at night after you’ve done been up all day doing what you’re supposed to do, as far as trying to take of yourself and trying to do something to make the neighborhood look nice and stuff. So, I don’t, I didn’t know what to do. I cried out to Humane Society, I cried out to Hammer and Nails, I also cried out to, uh, Chris Smith, you know, to try to get help to save my building. But I didn’t get anything from anybody so yesterday I called to make a police report because I was called that somebody had broke out all of my windows. When I called the police to go...to get a report, I ran into a very nasty policeman. And I’m not going to repeat the stuff that he said to me, but nevertheless, I don’t feel like I’m being treated fairly because I did put a lots of money into that building. I bought the building from the city and I was not aware that some of the stuff in there had not been taken care of. That building was abandoned for eleven years before I bought it. Didn’t nobody do anything to it, mess with no windows. These was not glass block windows, these was only regular windows and nobody never messed with the windows until I bought the building. So it, you know, it’s sort of like the people that was around...I had four people ask me could they buy it. They wanted to put a bar in there. We got enough bars, we don’t need no more bars. PRESIDENT SHERER: Thank you Ms. Ball. INFORMAL RESOLUTIONS PRESIDENT SHERER: We are now under Informal Resolutions and we have three for this evening.
