MEMBER SMUCKLER: Mr. President. COUNCIL PROCEEDINGS JOURNAL 109 JOURNAL PAGE 421 MINUTES OF THE MEETING OCTOBER 18, 2021 PRESIDENT SHERER: Leader. MEMBER SMUCKLER: Tomorrow night at, this is showing already how much use this is going to get, at Centennial Park, there is a program called “Take Back The Night.” We passed a Domestic Violence Resolution this evening and there will be a rally for the community, promoting Domestic Violence Awareness. And the…um…trying…(Inaudible). But uh…6:00 tomorrow night. If you can at all, attend, um, I think this is one of many programs that you will see at the Park. PRESIDENT SHERER: Thank you, Leader. Is there any other Miscellaneous Business for this evening? MAYOR BERNABEI: Uh…(clears throat)…Mr. President. PRESIDENT SHERER: Mayor. MAYOR BERNABEI: Three different topics. Um…Bill has mentioned Centennial Park. I just want to say to City Council and to uh…Auditor Mallonn and Law Director Kristen Bates-Aylward, who are here tonight, um…I have presented to you tonight, um, a commemorative uh…gift which is a replica of the donor wall. Um, of course we had our Centennial celebration back on September 18th. Many of you were there. It was a beautiful night and a great night. These were on back order since that date. Part of the National Supply Chain delays. But we wanted to present those to you tonight in thanks for your support of the construction and the ongoing maintenance and operation of Centennial Plaza. By all accounts, it has been a very, very successful year. Many of you attended many functions there this year and we anticipate that this will only grow and improve going into the future. On a second note, last week the Amazon project officially closed. It was the first… MEMBER SMITH: We can’t hear you Mayor. MAYOR BERNABEI: I’m sorry. Last week the Amazon project officially closed. That was the first time because everyone was under certain restrictions regarding talking about it, that Amazon, who everyone anticipated and expected to be the uh…the project owner, was acknowledged. I just wanted to say, uh, #1…and it’s important for everyone to understand that there were no incentives given with regards to this and none were asked by Amazon or by the developer; and…and…#2…a lot of work was done on this and I want to give my thanks to all Cabinet Members who were involved in this intimately, and all of our department heads, and special teams. We have been meeting in a very quiet, confidential, cooperative and very timely manner with the developers since this was first discussed, probably six months ago. This involved Zoning, Annexation and also, let me thank the Law Department because they were very instrumental in all the work that was done behind the scenes, but involved again, Zoning, Annexation, you know Council was involved in many of these steps. Approvals of various building, water, sewer, safety plans and just continuing attention to the developer needs with regard to this. We created a very close working relationship with them and from the beginning we scheduled multiple meetings which led to, what we call “one stop shopping with the developer, with our various department heads. So, again, this was truly critical to the final decision that was made and to the outcome of this particular project. So again, uh…you know…I worked on a daily basis with them, of course John Highman works on a daily bas…basis with service; Fonda, with Economic Development; Donn, with Planning and Zoning; Andrea, with Fire and Safety; and Mark, on Finances, as Kris does also. With regard to Phil, who was very instrumental in most of these steps. We have a great set of department heads, we have a great of very talented and professional people and uh…they and their teams worked very, very hard and we, you know, frequently received uh…a, you know, a thanks from the developer for the extraordinary attention given to this project. So again, although there was a lot of confidential work done on this, there was work being done at all COUNCIL PROCEEDINGS JOURNAL 109 JOURNAL PAGE 422 MINUTES OF THE MEETING OCTOBER 18, 2021 times and a lot of work done by all of them, and uh…you know, (Inaudible), thanks to all of these great people that work for us. And on a final topic, this is McKinley-Massillon week. This is a special week for the city of Canton. Uh…in addition to the game, I think it’s number 132, dating back to 1894, this coming Saturday there’s events every day, every day of the week and there is an important thing that happens that’s associated with it and one is the Blood Drive, annually, and one is the Food Fight. The food (Inaudible) for the Stark Hunger Task Force, every year. I would urge Council to support that. But this year, again, I want everyone to know that we will be having a Community Parade and rally on Friday night. This is the beginning of a tradition that we started probably 3 or 4 years ago, and it begins at 6:00 p.m. at the Civic Center and it will then parade down to Centennial Plaza, at 6:30 p.m. And again, this is our only high school in the city of Canton. This is a huge day and a huge support for that high school. Not only for football, but for the band, for the cheerleaders, for the pep squads and the dance squads and uh…and…and…uh…the kids and their parents. So, we would urge you on that particular day, if you can’t go to the game, please come to the free Centennial Plaza celebration and I am 0 and 5, in 5 years as Mayor, in games against Massillon. We have a new coach. We had a great day today at the Hall of Fame Luncheon Club and we have…and I have great confidence in Coach Antonio Hall, that he is the right guy to run this program. He picked up a program that uh…that had many, many challenges this year. They started out 0 and 2, with many, many challenges and they are 6 and 1 since that date. Coaches teach x and o’s, but mostly they teach character and values and he is teaching this team that and uh..this is a…a team, and again, a program that deserves all of our support. Um…Member Smith. MEMBER SMITH: Yes, uh…Mr. President. PRESIDENT SHERER: Member Smith. MEMBER SMITH: Thank you. Okay, I have several announcements. The first announcement is uh…the fact that I wanted to really thank the Canton City Schools for redoing Crenshaw Football Field. Now, I want each and every one of you all to know that the Crenshaw Bulldogs are the #1 Champs! They are undefeated. Their 8th grade did beat Massillon, which was our last game that we played. So, I just want to congratulate them on that. I also want to mention…most of you probably read in the paper, in regards to the Parks Department. Someone had wrote in “In My Opinion”, that our Parks Department does not do a good job on the Northeast end, (Inaudible), is located, but they were speaking of the park that’s over in the uh…Northeast area, off of Henrietta Avenue NE. And I just want to say about the Parks Department, they do a great job in maintaining our parks. And a lot of times, like now, they have a hard time getting upgraded equipment. And there’s a lot of equipment that is on hold because of Covid. So, I really wanted to go on record that I just did not appreciate them saying what they said about our Park Department. If you go around to most of our parks, they have been upgraded. If anyone gets a change, I would really love for you to see Lee’s Park. That was a park that we just finished and all of our parks are in good standing. And I just feel like our Parks Departments do a great job, Doug Foltz and his staff, in maintaining all of our parks. On um…October 30th there will be a Trunk or Treat at the Southeast Community Center and I’m asking everyone to come out and participate. Bring your kids and everybody have a safe weekend. Go Bulldogs! PRESIDENT SHERER: Thank you, Member Smith. Member Hall. MEMBER HALL: Uh…just one more announcement, Happy Birthday Chris! MEMBER SMITH: Awww, thank you. (Laughter). PRESIDENT SHERER: Absolutely, Happy Birthday! (Applause). Now, we could…we could…we could sing it… COUNCIL PROCEEDINGS JOURNAL 109 JOURNAL PAGE 423 MINUTES OF THE MEETING OCTOBER 18, 2021 MEMBER SMITH: Uhhh…okay…(Laughter). I do have one other announcement. The Juneites, always, every year host a Massillon-McKinley Breakfast, and that’s going to be on Saturday morning, this Saturday morning. So, you can come out to the breakfast, it’s from 9 to 12 and it’s at the Nazir Grotto Hall. PRESIDENT SHERER: Yeah. MEMBER SMITH: And if anybody needs tickets, see me. PRESIDENT SHERER: Yeah. Thank you, Member Smith and thank you, Member Hall. Is there any other Miscellaneous Business? MEMBER KIMBROUGH: I have one. PRESIDENT SHERER: Member Kimbrough. MEMBER KIMBROUGH: I just wanted to announce that our Trunk or Treat is going to be on the 28th. It’s going to be at the Stadium Park, so um…kids can come out, it’s a drive thru, and get their candy on that day! It’ll be from 5:30 to 7. PRESIDENT SHERER: Thank you, Member Kimbrough. Anything else? Leader. MEMBER SMUCKLER: Mr. President, I move we adjourn. MEMBER BABCOCK: Second. PRESIDENT SHERER: It’s been moved and seconded to adjourn. Madam Clerk, roll call please.
