On Third Order items, Mr. 5 1 Voldenberg, I just wanted to ask that for next 2 week we extended the extreme weather emergency 3 through today February 3rd. So for next week, 4 can we get a list of all purchases, leases, 5 rentals, properties and services that we -- the 6 city has used or rendered during the time of 7 the emergency declaration? 8 MR. VOLDENBERG: I will, sir. 9 MR. SCHUSTER: Thank you very much. 10 Do any Council members have any announcements 11 to make at this time? 12 MR. SEAN MCANDREW: No. 13 MR. SCHUSTER: All right. Fourth 14 Order. 15 MR. VOLDENBERG: FOURTH ORDER. 16 CITIZENS PARTICIPATION. 17 MR. SCHUSTER: Our first speaker 18 tonight is Joan Hodowanitz. 19 MS. HODOWANITZ: Joan Hodowanitz, 20 Scranton. Last week I complimented DPW on the 21 work they did clearing the snow after the 22 snowstorm. But I had some second thoughts 23 about that. I was -- I live downtown. And I 24 could watch, you know, the clearing of the snow 25 downtown. 6 1 But correct me if I'm wrong, it 2 appears that most of the downtown cleaning was 3 done by the contractors. And I've heard from a 4 lot of people who said that the side streets in 5 Scranton and the neighborhoods did not receive 6 anywhere near the attention that the downtown 7 did. 8 And maybe that had something to do 9 with the number of DPW personnel who called off 10 that Monday and Tuesday. However, I think it 11 would be in the best interest of the citizens 12 and, you as a Council, if you would have a 13 public caucus with the Mayor and the Director 14 of DPW to go over the preparations that were 15 made for that snowstorm since we knew it was 16 coming for about a week and how it was handled, 17 what kind of contractors we hired, how many got 18 paid, what were they paid, and how many streets 19 never got cleaned or streets that got cleaned 20 much later than they should have. 21 You know, people pay taxes and they 22 are pretty high. And if the streets are not 23 going to be paved, if the streets are not going 24 to be cleaned in a timely manner, if the 25 garbage is not going to be picked up in a 7 1 timely manner, why aren't they given a rebate 2 on their taxes because they're not getting what 3 they're paying for, at least in my opinion. 4 Many years ago -- I don't know, 5 maybe you're not old enough to remember this. 6 But many years ago they used to have a plan 7 where they wanted, you know, they would plow 8 one side of the street and the cars had to be 9 moved and then they would plow the other side 10 of the street. 11 The only problem was, there wasn't 12 anywhere to move your cars to. I would like to 13 know what is the plan for any possible future 14 snow storms because you know if they don't come 15 this year, they'll come in future years. How 16 will they plan to clean up the city? 17 I know that the DPW workers that did 18 turn out and work, probably did, you know, the 19 best that they could under trying 20 circumstances. But, you know, if we can't -- I 21 look to the Mayor and the Director of DPW to 22 lead. 23 There's an old saying we used to 24 have in the Army, "Lead, follow, or get out of 25 the damn way." I want to hear what the Mayor 8 1 and the Director of DPW, newly hired, plan to 2 do should there be another significant 3 snowstorm. 4 They need to take a look at their 5 resources. Do they have enough? How are they 6 going to deploy them or and what's the priority 7 for cleanup? Have they left streets unplowed? 8 You know, people pay taxes. Their streets 9 should get plowed sooner or later, hopefully 10 sooner. 11 So hopefully you consider a public 12 caucus so that the general public could get 13 these answers. The only other thing I want to 14 talk -- well, the one thing I do want to talk 15 about is I hope we're making progress on our 16 contractor DPW. It's been over a year, you 17 know, I mean, it's time for, you know, 18 something to happen. Even if it's going to be 19 arbitration, let's get off the pot now. It's 20 over a year. 21 And with the Tenor buying the 22 hospitals, Regional and Moses Taylor, I was an 23 employee of Moses Taylor when Commonwealth 24 Health bought Moses Taylor. And I remember the 25 explanations they gave us. They were going to 9 1 invest so much money in Moses Taylor. It was 2 going to be state of the art. 3 And sad to say, most of those 4 investments never came to pass in the 10, 12 5 year period of time. My question is, you know, 6 we're going to take a significant loss in tax 7 revenue because the hospitals will become 8 non-profits. And that may be acceptable if, in 9 fact, we get Tenor to invest what CHS never 10 did. Thank you. 11 MR. SCHUSTER: Thank you very much. 12 Our next speaker is Tom Kelleher. 13 MR. KELLEHER: Good evening. My 14 name is Tom Kelleher. I'm a Scranton resident 15 and co-owner of Kelleher Tire and KT Auto Sales 16 at 430 West Market Street in North Scranton. 17 I'm here tonight to bring to your attention the 18 fact that the city Planning Commission which 19 falls under your jurisdiction does not notify 20 the public of their meeting agendas, thereby 21 eliminating any opportunity for public input. 22 It's not in the Scranton Times, nor 23 is it on their website. The most recent city 24 Planning Committee -- Commission meeting held 25 on January 28th, dealt with several important 10 1 projects, yet there was not a single member of 2 the public there to comment or question what 3 was being proposed or voted on because nobody 4 knew what the agenda was. 5 In April of 2025, a zoning meeting 6 was held that was properly publicized regarding 7 a proposed apartment complex to be built at 448 8 West Market Street. Approximately 25 residents 9 of North Scranton showed up to raise their 10 concerns and objections. 11 Since my business is likely to be 12 negatively impacted by this building, I've 13 been watching the legal ads, checking the 14 website for information for a followup meeting. 15 But since the agenda was never 16 posted, I missed the meeting. As a result, the 17 project was approved and what can only be 18 described as a back door move by the board. In 19 addition, there were five other proposals 20 discussed, not a single one had any public 21 input. 22 My purpose tonight is to ask you to 23 ensure that the agendas and not just the 24 meeting dates are properly publicized so 25 concerned citizens have the information they 11 1 need. 2 The 25 people who attended that 3 April zoning meeting and demonstrated their 4 interest deserve better as do all the taxpaying 5 citizens of Scranton. Thank you. 6 MR. SCHUSTER: Thank you very much. 7 MR. SEAN MCANDREW: Mr. Voldenberg, 8 can we have a letter sent to the Planning 9 Commission asking why they haven't advertised 10 the meetings and when was the last time they 11 did advertise it? 12 MR. VOLDENBERG: I will, sir. 13 MR. SEAN MCANDREW: Thanks. 14 MR. SCHUSTER: Thank you, Mr. 15 Voldenberg. Our next speaker tonight I just 16 have Christine. I don't have a last name. And 17 if you could just state your name and address, 18 please? 19 MS. SPIATTO: Christine Spiatto, 147 20 South Lincoln Avenue, Scranton. 21 MR. SCHUSTER: Thank you. 22 MS. SPIATTO: My question is, how 23 does the Mayor justify prioritizing a 24 congressional fundraiser and campaign 25 activities over being physically present in 12 1 Scranton during the crisis affecting the 2 residents' safety and mobility? That's all. 3 MR. SCHUSTER: We could address that 4 in Fifth Order when it comes our time to speak. 5 MS. SPIATTO: Okay. 6 MR. SCHUSTER: Thank you. The next 7 speaker is Bob Bolus. 8 MR. BOLUS: Good evening, Council, 9 Bob Bolus, Scranton. I received a citation 10 from -- let me get his name here somewhere -- 11 code enforcement -- Bureau of Code Enforcement, 12 Benjamin Chmil, C-H-M-I-L, who I think is one 13 of the most incompetent individuals I've seen 14 in this city. 15 He gave me this summons for the 16 church and the hall that I own here in Scranton 17 Holy Cross Church and hall for not taking care 18 of it. If I may, these are pictures of what we 19 had done there already. And this incompetent 20 individual had the audacity to send me a 21 summons in the middle of the snowstorm saying 22 it wasn't done. Here, you could see the black 23 to right down the street. If I could approach, 24 but I don't want to lose my time. 25 MR. SCHUSTER: It's off of your 13 1 phone right now. 2 MR. BOLUS: Pardon? 3 MR. SCHUSTER: The pictures aren't 4 up on your phone right now. It's your home 5 screen. But if you want to send those pictures 6 over to Council you could send -- 7 MR. BOLUS: Yeah, I could do that. 8 What ticked me off is, oh, get this done or I'm 9 going to give a summons for $300. I don't know 10 who the hell he thinks he is to come around 11 harassing with his incompetent idea. 12 I drove around tonight and there's 13 streets right around there that have sidewalks 14 that have not been shovelled. So he has 15 blinders on but he's selective enforcement. 16 This is the kind of incompetence we have under 17 Paige Cognetti in this city. 18 She should have her butt right here 19 taking care of the people in this city, not 20 worrying about a fundraiser to go to an office 21 she'll never attain because they don't need her 22 out there because she should have been here 23 shovelling the snow showing her people what to 24 do. 25 She had a pickup truck, DPW for a 14 1 photo op. But it didn't have a snow plow on 2 it. It had nothing to do. But she's trying to 3 show she was here managing the city. She 4 bailed and the storm coming, she went to DC to 5 fill her pockets. 6 Well, we lost what we're doing. 7 People said they couldn't walk down the 8 sidewalk. This incompetent individual -- and 9 I'm really ticked off about it because if he 10 wants to take a fight with me, he picked the 11 right guy to have it and so did she. 12 We pay taxes in this city. We ask 13 for the best. People couldn't walk down the 14 sidewalk. They had to walk down the street in 15 the deplorable condition our streets were and 16 take a chance of breaking their damn leg in a 17 pothole the way it was. 18 If you're going to be an 19 administrator, you lead by example. You don't 20 run away in a snowstorm and then expect it to 21 be done when you have people like this on your 22 payroll dictating to people like us in the city 23 with blinders on because they're selective 24 enforcement. 25 They push their authority around. 15 1 They think they're impeccable do what they're 2 doing. 3 Another thing I'm going to do for 4 the city, this is for commissioner. This is a 5 thing I'm taking. I filed a federal lawsuit 6 against the Tax Claim Bureau over fraudulent 7 selling of my properties in this last auction. 8 There's five bidders who retained 9 attorneys. These attorneys are citing to -- by 10 just piggybacking on Joe Joyce's work and all 11 of his filings. They filed no briefs or 12 specific denials. They just state that they 13 agree with the Tax Claim Bureau. 14 They did this fraudulently and we 15 could prove it. It's in federal court. And 16 they are going to pay the price on how they 17 operate. This is against the taxpayers in the 18 City of Scranton to let them know you have to 19 get something done. 20 You got to protect what we're doing 21 and we just saw what Cognetti did to us. She 22 has no concept on how to remove snow, yet she 23 came from Oregon. I spent a great deal of time 24 in Oregon. I know how they clean snow. She 25 was up in college. It snows up there. She 16 1 didn't pay attention to it, but she turned her 2 back on everybody here in the City of Scranton. 3 And what would she do if she ever 4 gets to Washington? She's going to turn her 5 back there too? It's time that we made 6 changes. And the shooting in Minneapolis, the 7 lesbian got what she asked for and the other 8 idiot brought a gun to a gunfight. He deserved 9 to get shot. Ask our officer here what he 10 would have did. 11 MR. SCHUSTER: Thank you, Mr. Bolus. 12 MR. BOLUS: Thank you. 13 MR. SCHUSTER: Next speaker is Joe 14 Decker. 15 MR. DECKER: How you doing. My name 16 is Joe Decker. I'm a property owner of a 17 property up in the Hill Section. I no longer 18 live there. It's an empty lot, also a former 19 Mayoral candidate for the City of Scranton in 20 the 2000 election. 21 You know, these people are electing 22 these officials like Paige Cognetti, she's not 23 a Scrantonian. She's never going to be a 24 Scrantonian. When I ran for Mayor, you had to 25 have a residency established in the city. 17 1 This woman is living in Waverly. 2 How did she get a waiver to live in Waverly? 3 She's supposed to live in the City of Scranton 4 under the rules. She's not in the City of 5 Scranton so she shouldn't be Mayor. 6 Another thing is, why does a Mayor 7 of this town go to Washington, DC, to a 8 fundraiser instead of worrying about her 9 citizens here. You know, she wants all of this 10 big time city life, big cities, she's got the 11 police cars done like Philadelphia police 12 departments, this, that. 13 The train's going to be coming in. 14 This town ain't going to handle the crime rate 15 that's going to come in. It's a crock. It's 16 time for people -- true Scrantonians to stand 17 up and get these people out of office. 18 What's the deal? When I grew up 19 here, there was no gangs. There was none of 20 this. It's like where do you go? You guys are 21 selling the Hill Section out to the University 22 of Scranton. The hospitals, they give you 23 about $250,000 a year for the service of these 24 hardworking police officers or whatever. 25 Yeah, they have their own police 18 1 department up there now, but these guys still 2 have to go to calls. Our firefighters have to 3 go to calls, risk their lives for what, 4 $250,000 a year and the streets don't get 5 cleaned? 6 When Mayor Connors was Mayor, 7 streets were always clean, McNulty, streets 8 were clean, Ebersole. All these guys that 9 ran -- when I grew up here -- and I'm an 10 original Hill Section boy, everything was taken 11 care of. Now everything is going to crap. 12 You guys sit there on Council and 13 want things done and you make your city better. 14 Well, make it better. Get the streets cleared. 15 Get people on the ball and do their job. There 16 is so much stuff in the city that's going wrong 17 it's crazy. 18 You got shootings going on. You got 19 this going on. You got that going on. So what 20 is the deal with the City of Scranton from now 21 on? Like, what are you guys look to establish 22 as a city? To be a crime ridden city? 23 What happens when, like, you see all 24 of these school shootings. What happens with 25 all of our schools when something happens down 19 1 there because of stuff that Paige Cognetti is 2 doing to the city. She's not a true 3 Scrantonian. She's running the city like it's 4 Portland. It's not Portland. This is 5 Scranton, Pennsylvania. 6 People got to make changes. I mean, 7 everybody got a stern look on their face, but 8 these are facts. If you want to keep a city 9 growing and you keep money -- things coming 10 into the city, you build on it. You don't 11 destroy it. How many people want to come and 12 see people getting shot? 13 You got officers being killed in 14 Scranton now. What is that about? When I grew 15 up, you had a problem with a cop you dealt with 16 it. I mean, you took your lunch or whatever it 17 was and it was over. Now you got people 18 shooting at these innocent guys who are out to 19 try to make a living protecting the city. 20 This is what's going on in the city. 21 Like I said, I only own a piece of property 22 here right now. But still, this is my 23 hometown. It still matters to me and something 24 has to be done. And it's up to you guys to 25 question it as Council members. So that's my 20 1 statement here. And I'm just wondering what's 2 going to happen here. But that's it. Thank 3 you. 4 MR. SCHUSTER: Thank you. Next we 5 have Dave Falchek. 6 MR. FALCHEK: Good evening, Council, 7 Dave Falchek, North Scranton. I'm here in my 8 capacity as the Chair of the Board of Ethics. 9 And I'm joined by a fellow board member Harry 10 McKay. Pursuant to the Code of Ethics, I want 11 to come here this evening to share with you our 12 independent review of the 2004 statements of 13 financial interest. 14 As, you know, you all know these are 15 required to be filed by all elected, appointed 16 officials and a few others in the City of 17 Scranton. I also want to thank Council and the 18 other appointing authorities to the Board of 19 Ethics who include the Mayor and the 20 Comptroller's office for always permitting us 21 to do our work with complete independence. 22 It's essential, of course, for not 23 only our group but for all of the city's 24 authority boards and commissions. Also, I want 25 to thank the city clerk's office for 21 1 maintaining these materials in a very organized 2 way so they are very easy for me or any other 3 member of the public to review. 4 I also want to add that I appreciate 5 that all of the statements of financial 6 interest are available -- scanned and available 7 online. Like so much city business now is 8 available to people online. And that 9 meaningfully enhances transparency. And we 10 hope cultivates public trust. 11 Overall compliance with the filing 12 of the statements of financial interest has 13 increased gradually over the years. It's 14 probably around 90 percent of all the folks on 15 that list. I think the progress is due in part 16 to efforts of the Law Department to communicate 17 these obligations to the authority, boards, and 18 commissions. 19 Also, the city clerk's office has 20 strengthened its direct outreach to public 21 officials to make sure they get these things 22 in. I think compliance is probably a little 23 better than even indicated by the materials I 24 provided you. 25 And I think that's because I've seen 22 1 cases where you have someone who might be 2 impaneled on a board late in the year or leaves 3 a board early in the year, they may not fully 4 realize that they are still obligated to file a 5 SOFI with the prior year's data on it. 6 So it invites confusion. Of course, 7 these SOFIs are important because they allow us 8 to monitor for real or apparent conflicts of 9 interest. And a word about conflicts of 10 interest because it does come up a lot before 11 our board, I think when you mention a real or 12 apparent conflict of interest, people get 13 defensive. 14 However, conflicts of interests will 15 arise in the normal course of business of any 16 organization, any government, any entity. It's 17 a very normal thing. Conflicts of interest are 18 legally neutral. They only become a problem 19 when they are not disclosed, evaluated, and 20 addressed. 21 So the work of the Board of Ethics 22 over the past few years has been somewhat 23 limited. I'm happy to say we haven't had any 24 investigations. You know, a board like us if 25 we were very busy would raise a whole other 23 1 host of questions, right? 2 Investigations are expensive and 3 time consuming. However, what we have done is 4 issue advisory opinions. And these pubically 5 available opinions are done when we get a 6 question or a complaint that does not warrant a 7 full investigation or finding of the facts. 8 So these advisory opinions are 9 intended to offer situational guidance and best 10 practices. And we hope that as, you know, the 11 work of the board and the Code of Ethics 12 continues that these advisory opinions will 13 provide a guide for authority, boards, and 14 commissions and the staff to navigate ethical 15 issues when they arise. 16 The board also responded to several 17 complaints concerning matters outside of the 18 scope of the Code of Ethics. In such cases 19 when the complainants are known, we provide a 20 letter and we explain why they were outside of 21 the scope of the Code of Ethics. 22 I also want to commend the Law 23 Department for having ethics training for 24 employees of the city. I think this is great. 25 This is -- let's face it. Not a lot of people 24 1 are going to sit down and read the Code of 2 Ethics. If you have a training, that helps 3 bring the code into culture and that should be 4 our goal, ethics and transparency should be 5 part of the culture of everything that we do 6 here. 7 Finally, I want to note broader 8 changes in staffing and enforcement priorities 9 with the US Department of Justice. Many 10 observers have suggested that official fraud 11 and corruption may be de-emphasized at the 12 federal level. 13 And as we know in Northeastern 14 Pennsylvania from unfortunate experience, 15 federal authorities have historically played a 16 significant role in investigating and 17 prosecuting public corruption. 18 I think what we need to realize is 19 that there may not be a calvary coming next 20 time something happens. So we -- this is going 21 to underscore the importance of our local 22 vigilance and those of committed to transparent 23 ethical governance, have to recommit ourselves 24 to these principles. 25 Scranton Code of Ethics is strong. 25 1 It's a strong code. And it will be able to 2 with the support of all of us be able to 3 respond to significant situations when they 4 arise. And that's all. Thank you. 5 MR. SCHUSTER: Thank you. 6 Mr. Falchek, it looked like from your review 7 here, there's about 22 SOFIs still pending. 8 Would that number be accurate? You said about 9 90 percent. It seems to be -- fall into that. 10 MR. FALCHEK: Oh, you think it might 11 be even -- might be better than 90. I'd have 12 to look. I apologize. I don't have the 13 details in front of me. 14 MR. SCHUSTER: Okay. All right. I 15 would like to commend our office, Miss Carrera 16 and Mr. Voldenberg, they did find some that 17 were still pending. And we got them turned in 18 and two individuals turned in their 2024 as of, 19 I believe this week or last week, so happy to 20 see that occurring. How many advisory opinions 21 would you say happen on average per year? 22 MR. FALCHEK: Two to three per year. 23 MR. SCHUSTER: Okay. All right. 24 Thank you very much. 25 MR. FALCHEK: Thank you. 26 1 MR. SCHUSTER: Next speaker is Mike 2 Mancini. 3 MR. MANCINI: Good evening, 4 Scranton. I want to draw your attention to 5 something recently that happened between DPW, 6 the administration and how the residents of 7 Scranton were affected. Our city called for a 8 state of emergency regarding recent major 9 snowstorm from January 24th to the 29th. 10 I'm not necessarily here to point 11 out what's broken, but to shed light on what's 12 working remarkably well within our city's 13 Department of Public Works. For over a year, 14 this critical department operated without a 15 contract and without consistent direction by 16 the administration for over seven years. 17 Yet somehow, the work still gets 18 done sometimes faster, sometimes slower, often 19 better but always with pride. These are the 20 people who clear the streets after storms, keep 21 our water systems running, maintain our parks, 22 our roads, and make sure that our city remains 23 liveable day in and day out. 24 They show up before dawn, stay long 25 after dusk and rarely get the public gratitude 27 1 that they deserve. They've done all of this 2 without comfort of stability or clear direction 3 from the top. That speaks volumes with 4 professionalism, commitment, and sense of duty. 5 But here's the truth. Their success is under 6 these conditions is not a reason to keep things 7 as they are. 8 The reason to -- it's a reason to 9 invest in them. Imagine how much more 10 efficient, more strategic, more innovative our 11 department can be if the direction were matched 12 by good leadership, a stable contract, and 13 long-term planning. 14 System running on sheer 15 determination won't last forever. So I urge 16 you not just as leaders but stewards of our 17 community to recognize what's been accomplished 18 despite obstacles. Let's turn this 19 department's -- to the foundation for 20 sustainable success. 21 Give them the management they 22 deserve, the infrastructure to grow, and the 23 contract that represents their contribution. 24 Public works has shown us what accountability 25 and teamwork truly look like. 28 1 Now it's time for us to show them 2 the same is return. To reiterate, the 3 Department of Public Works is keeping our 4 streets clean, parks and infrastructures 5 running without a contract or leadership 6 structure they deserve. 7 That's not just impressive, it's 8 extraordinary. Every day DPW employees are out 9 before dawn. They plow the snow before most 10 of us wake up, clear debris from every storm, 11 patch potholes, collect trash and keep public 12 spaces safe and clean. 13 These are the unseen hands that make 14 our daily life possible for every resident. 15 And yet, despite doing essential demanding 16 work, many of these employees doing it without 17 the current contract or strong managerial 18 guidance -- managerial guidance. Think about 19 that for a moment. 20 Without stable management, without 21 the security and respect of a signed agreement, 22 most departments would slow down, morale would 23 drop. But not our public works crews. They 24 haven't stepped back. They've stepped up. 25 They've showed pride, ownership, and 29 1 professionalism in the face of uncertainty. 2 And that tells us something powerful 3 about who they are. But God will, the 4 direction can't stay in this workforce forever. 5 We risk burning out the very people who hold 6 our city together. This Council has the power 7 to change by ensuring that public works 8 employees receive contract stability and 9 leadership support that reflect their essential 10 role. 11 These workers have proven their 12 commitment to the city. Now it's time that we 13 provide them with the same commitment. Paige 14 Cognetti, I recommend you forward -- you move 15 forward with urgency, resolve the contract 16 issues, strengthen management and give these 17 employees the tools and leadership they need to 18 keep thriving because when public works 19 succeed, every corner of our city benefits, 20 safer streets, cleaner neighborhoods, stronger 21 community pride. 22 Let's stop relying on the dedication 23 alone and start backing it up with action. One 24 more thing, Paige, since now you're on the 25 national stage, a word of advice, leaders lead 30 1 their team to victory, not run the other way. 2 Thank you to each DPW employees and the first 3 responders for your daily dedication to our 4 amazing city. Good evening, Scranton. 5 MR. SCHUSTER: Thank you. Our next 6 speaker is Betsy Green. However, it does say 7 you're from Wyoming County. 8 MS. GREEN: Yeah. Can I still 9 speak? 10 MR. SCHUSTER: Are you a taxpayer or 11 resident of Scranton? 12 MS. GREEN: No. 13 MR. SCHUSTER: I'm sorry, we can't 14 allow you to speak tonight. 15 MS. GREEN: Okay. 16 MR. SCHUSTER: Next speaker is Les 17 Spindler. 18 MR. SPINDLER: Good evening, 19 Council, Les Spindler, city resident, 20 homeowner. Not a happy camper tonight. Last 21 Thursday morning I was awaken at six in the 22 morning, a lot of noise outside my bedroom 23 window. 24 I look outside. There's a big dump 25 truck and front end loader clearing snow. I 31 1 said, oh, great, they're going to clear all the 2 piles off the street by my house. I wake up 3 later on and went outside, I said to my wife, 4 what did they do? There was pile in font of my 5 neighbor's house that somebody plowed. That 6 was still there. 7 A pile on the side of my house which 8 I made when I got my garage dug out and the 9 house, nothing was done. Then I look closer, 10 the front end loader went over the curb on my 11 corner, crushed the corner, the blacktop that 12 the city put down in the summer, went over the 13 lawn and out back onto the street. 14 Who are the idiots that this Mayor 15 hired? They ruined my property. They cracked 16 my neighbor's sidewalk. You know, I didn't pay 17 to have the curb put it. DPW did a wonderful 18 job doing it. But my neighbor paid for the 19 sidewalks and they cracked it. 20 So it's a darn shame. I have been 21 coming here for years and years complaining 22 about my corner getting flooded. DPW did a 23 great job fixing it last summer. And whoever 24 this contractor was, they came and ruined it. 25 I don't know how much is ruined yet 32 1 because it's still covered with a lot of snow. 2 But they shouldn't have even been on my corner 3 because that was plowed by somebody two days 4 before. There's no reason for them to be near 5 my house. So I don't know what the hell is 6 going on with this city. 7 Next thing, driving around the city, 8 even yet still today, I see cars with snow and 9 ice, cars, vans with snow and ice still on 10 their roofs. There's a law against that. You 11 know, it's serious -- if you're on the highway 12 and that stuff flies off, it could kill 13 somebody. So, I mean, these people should be 14 pulled over and cited. 15 Oh, moving on, this week in Tripp 16 Park there was the red container, papers and 17 cardboard. I didn't have much to put out. I 18 didn't put mine out. But a neighbor asked me 19 to -- he wanted me to ask tonight. It still 20 wasn't picked up in Tripp Park. Actually all 21 my neighbors had their cardboard out. It 22 wasn't picked up. 23 Today's Wednesday. It should have 24 been picked up on Monday. We didn't have a 25 snowstorm this week. So I don't know what 33 1 their excuse is. And lastly, watching on the 2 national news last night, it's terrible what's 3 going on in Minnesota. They said the coroner 4 in Minnesota said that Alex Pretti's death was 5 a homicide. 6 And it was on the news last week 7 that his gun was taken away from him which he 8 was legally carrying and then he was shot. So 9 these two ice agents killed an unarmed man. 10 They murdered an unarmed man. And they're off 11 on paid leave, not only shouldn't they be off 12 on paid leave, they should be in a jail cell 13 with Donald Trump right behind him because he's 14 an accessory to murder because he's the one 15 that sent them there. 16 Something's got to be done. It's 17 ridiculous. There's a five year old they took 18 custody of. Finally the judge let him out. 19 Donald Trump lied to the American people. He 20 said these agents are going to take illegal 21 immigrants who are committing crimes. 22 The women they killed and Mr. Pretti 23 weren't committing crimes. They're American 24 citizens. It's -- you know, I hear somebody 25 saying, it's not city business. United States 34 1 Constitution says I could come up here and say 2 whatever I want. We went through this years 3 ago. 4 And we had people coming in and told 5 Judy Gatelli who was President of Council they 6 could get up you here and say whatever they 7 want. The United States Constitution 8 supersedes Council's rules. So that's all I 9 have to say tonight. Thank you. 10 MR. SCHUSTER: Thank you. 11 MR. SEAN MCANDREW: Mr. Voldenberg, 12 can you send down to the DPW the recycling over 13 to Tripp to see if they are circling back to 14 get it or the reason why it would have been 15 missed? 16 MR. VOLDENBERG: I will, Mr. 17 McAndrew. 18 MR. SCHUSTER: Yeah, do we know if 19 any areas are a day behind or more than that, 20 Mr. Voldenberg? 21 MR. VOLDENBERG: They were running a 22 day behind, but two days is questionable. I'll 23 find out. 24 MR. SCHUSTER: Okay. All right. 25 Thank you. Our next speaker is Linda 35 1 Bonczkiewicz. I do have your address as 2 Dalton. Are you from Dalton or own property or 3 a taxpayer in the City of Scranton? 4 MS. BONCZKIEWICZ: No. 5 MR. SCHUSTER: All right. Well, we 6 can't have you speak tonight, sorry. Next 7 speaker is George Schottmiller. Could you 8 start by stating your residence? 9 MR. SCHOTTMILLER: Yes, I live in 10 Nevils Hall, University of Scranton. 11 MR. SCHUSTER: Thank you. 12 MR. SCHOTTMILLER: So I'm obviously 13 a student of the University of Scranton. And 14 over the past few weeks we've gotten a 15 considerable amount of snow. But it's nothing 16 new for Northeast PA. I mean, we've gotten a 17 lot of snow here for a long time and should be 18 used to it by now. 19 But, I mean, after the -- during the 20 last snowstorm, at least the road conditions 21 were really unsafe hours after -- after snow 22 and throughout well into the day including in 23 most areas after that. 24 And as a student, that is -- 25 definitely affected me, not being able to get 36 1 to class. They were closing offices, stuff 2 like that. I mean, I support the work of DPW. 3 But obviously the Mayor doesn't because they 4 can't get a consistent contract or whatever is 5 going on there. 6 And I just came here to see are the 7 Mayor and City Council doing anything to stop 8 this from happening every winter? It's 9 starting to become a problem. I mean, I expect 10 a little more. 11 MR. SCHUSTER: Okay. We're in 12 Fourth Order right now. And Fifth Order will 13 be next for Council to speak and we could 14 address some of that in Fifth Order. 15 MR. SCHOTTMILLER: Thank you. 16 MR. SCHUSTER: Next speaker is Ryan 17 Florek. 18 MR. FLOREK: I'm Ryan Florek. I 19 live in Giblin-Kelly Hall at the University of 20 Scranton. I formally -- I moved here to go to 21 the University formally from Luzerne County. 22 And I came today to ask some questions and 23 voice my concerns regarding how the city is 24 using its resources, specifically in regards to 25 the Mayor and her recent trip to DC. 37 1 I just wanted to ask if city 2 resources, staff time, public funds were being 3 used in any way to support or finance these 4 trips to DC because it was brought to my 5 attention that she had gone to DC for a 6 fundraising event which I don't think is in the 7 best interest of the Scranton people. 8 And I do not believe taxpayer 9 dollars should be going towards funding her 10 future campaigns or, you know, her next step in 11 her career, you know, and especially during the 12 time of need during these past couple weeks of 13 snow with the snowstorm we recently had. 14 And I have heard -- I am very 15 grateful for the DPW here in Scranton. I think 16 they do great work. But I think some of the 17 leadership and some of the resources for the 18 DPW need to be adjusted. And I think that 19 better work just needs to be done overall. 20 MR. SCHUSTER: Thank you. Next 21 speaker looks like Lee Bolinger. All right. 22 Next speaker is Barb O'Malley. It definitely 23 starts with a B. 24 MR. MORGAN: No, that is my middle 25 initial. 38 1 MR. SCHUSTER: Okay. Lee Morgan. 2 MR. MORGAN: Well, the first thing I 3 have here is, I'm going to address a letter to 4 the Council to ask what your position is on 5 putting the public access channel back in the 6 peg. 7 But I'm not going to ask that at the 8 podium tonight. I just want you to know it's 9 coming. The other thing I have is, somebody is 10 working on a fire truck on Mulberry Street in 11 the dark. It's the most ridiculous thing I've 12 ever seen. 13 The vehicle should have been towed 14 off of Mulberry Street to a city garage. You 15 shouldn't ask an employee to work on a busy 16 street in the dark with flashlight. The other 17 thing is, you know, people are questioning 18 whether the Mayor lives here. 19 Everybody knew that she didn't live 20 here. And when the last election took place, I 21 made it very clear that any of the candidates 22 could have questioned her candidacy and removed 23 her from the ballot, but nobody did it. 24 And the Council knew she didn't live 25 here either. It's not a secret. So legitimate 39 1 government can't function in this level of 2 corruption. And when elected officials allow 3 stuff like that to happen, it just diminishes 4 everybody's rights. And it just shouldn't 5 happen. 6 Representative government can't 7 function like that. And on licensing and 8 inspections, a few years ago we had a 9 whistleblower there who talked about corruption 10 in that office. In the end, she quit her job 11 and moved her family outside the city because 12 the Mayor didn't care. Nobody cared. 13 And I've got all of those documents 14 at home where she did rights to know. And it's 15 really amazing how people can talk about ethics 16 and government and see how the city functions. 17 Now, you got residents here today talking about 18 the storm and plowing snow. 19 The city was gifted by the federal 20 government 6 by 6s. They could put plows on 21 them. I don't know what they did with those 22 trucks years ago. I think they probably 23 scrapped them. And now you got DPW workers 24 running around in one and a half ton -- you 25 might as well call them pickup trucks plowing 40 1 snow. 2 It's almost ridiculous. The trucks 3 aren't heavy enough. They aren't designed for 4 that. They're not capable of doing that job. 5 And this is the government we have. And we 6 elect people -- I'm coming here for 40 years 7 now. I just watch the totally -- the city just 8 blow away, watched all the corruption. 9 Years ago I had a guy from the FBI, 10 they were investigating the Court of Lackawanna 11 County -- the Court of Common Pleas. And I 12 laughed at them. I told them take his stuff 13 and go home. Okay, because they wanted to take 14 the judges off the bench. 15 This is what we're dealing here 16 with. Nothing is going to change here because 17 either the residents are ignorant or stupid. 18 And that's what it is. We have neighborhood 19 groups that don't work. Don't forget Ed Pisano 20 put a building for the Hill Neighborhood 21 Association up there when Jim Connors was 22 Mayor. 23 They sold it. The neighborhood 24 groups aren't functioning correctly. Nothing 25 in the city is functioning correctly. Okay, 41 1 the city needs a new hospital. We don't need 2 to refinance and rebuild the scrap that they 3 have in the neighborhoods because they're 4 antiquated. 5 They are not even worth wasting your 6 time with. But yet, still we have the medical 7 college here but we have a lack of vision here, 8 a lack of leadership here. And it's been 9 continual. And it's probably never going to 10 change. 11 I'm just glad that all of my 12 children left here. And I made sure my 13 children weren't educated in the Scranton 14 School District because I sent them to 15 Abington. Because to be honest with you, every 16 resident in this city should hold their head 17 down because they've left this corruption 18 destroy this city and the school district. 19 And then they come here and 20 complain. It's almost ridiculous because when 21 it comes time to do the right thing and vote 22 the right way, they don't. And I've had my ups 23 and downs with the city. I took licensing and 24 inspections to court and they backed away from 25 me because their Law Department knew they 42 1 weren't doing things right, okay. 2 And the federal judge for ECTV, my 3 hearing should have started in February but it 4 didn't because he don't know what to do with my 5 briefs. I may be an ignorant truck driver, but 6 I'm not stupid. Thank you. 7 MR. SCHUSTER: Thank you. Next 8 speaker is Barb O'Malley. 9 MS. O'MALLEY: Good evening, Barb 10 O'Malley, city resident, taxpayer. I want to 11 start off with something that doesn't really 12 have anything to do with the business of 13 Council tonight. But it does have to do with 14 the city. 15 Last night I was at the West Side 16 Scranton High girls basketball game. And prior 17 to the game, you know, when the game starts 18 everybody gets up for the singing of the Star 19 Spangled -- or to listen to the Star-Spangled 20 Banner. 21 And the equipment wasn't working at 22 the -- right away at Lackawanna College. So 23 everybody was standing there, you know, looking 24 around, looking around. And the wonderful team 25 and cheerleaders from West Scranton started 43 1 singing the Star-Spangled Banner. 2 It started off kind of quiet. And 3 then it picked up and then the members of the 4 audience. And they never even bothered to put 5 the music on because these kids did such a 6 fabulous job singing. And it was really a very 7 special moment. And I think everybody who was 8 in that gym felt that way. 9 And I just heard the last speaker 10 slam the Scranton schools, Scranton everything 11 he seemed to slam. And last night was a 12 shining example of the students in our Scranton 13 schools and our future residents. And I just 14 wanted to give a shoutout to them and a thank 15 you. 16 And that's coming from a former 17 Dunmorean who, you know, we have this rivalry 18 with West Side. But call it West Side pride, 19 they did a great job last night. And I was 20 glad to be there. So with that said, now onto 21 the business of the snowstorm. 22 Okay, that's -- that's really why 23 I'm here. And some of you I've already had 24 some contact with, Mr. Flynn. So I'm here to 25 talk about the snowstorm. I have been a 44 1 homeowner in the Hill Section for over 40 2 years. And last week's cleanup was the worst 3 in my experience. 4 Now, I will say for many of the 5 years on the Hill we were blessed to have a 6 terrific plow driver named Tony who retired. 7 And he really took care of the neighborhoods. 8 I don't know if you were there, Frank, when 9 Tony was there. 10 But Tony took care of everything. 11 So last week I watched Council to get some 12 answers to what the heck happened this time 13 around. And there was general agreement that 14 the DPW workers did the best they could under 15 the terrible conditions. But there were 16 implementation problems, okay. 17 So the next morning I open the paper 18 to the headline, "City snow plowing removal 19 hampered by mass callouts of workers." I saw 20 red. As a city resident who was in the middle 21 of that storm I -- you know, working hard, all 22 my neighbors working hard. And I understand 40 23 employees -- employees called off on Monday, 33 24 on Tuesday and nobody on Council knew or 25 thought it had any impact on the cleanup 45 1 effort. 2 Now, some folks want you to believe 3 that most of the calloffs were garbage 4 collectors and since collections were 5 cancelled, they were justified in calling off. 6 But that's not processing with me. Does that 7 mean that if they had come to work there would 8 have been nothing for them to do? 9 Or does it mean that they did not 10 want to be reassigned to other duties? As a 11 taxpayer, I would expect that a storm of that 12 magnitude would be all hands on deck to clear 13 the roads. At least week's meeting, Mr. Sean 14 McAndrew talked about safety concerns caused by 15 the poor cleanup. 16 I agree. But I have a question. 17 Had those 40 employees who called off actually 18 showed up, could they have been dispatched to 19 clear around fire hydrants, bridges, 20 intersections, school crosswalks? I think they 21 could have been utilized. Somebody here talked 22 about using our resources. And that's our 23 manpower as well. 24 So Council also called for a post 25 storm report to learn what worked and what 46 1 didn't. You might want to start with the DPW 2 employees, those who pulled their weight and 3 those who didn't. Thank you. 4 MR. SCHUSTER: Thank you very much. 5 Does anybody else want to address Council? 6 Thank you. All right. Our next speaker is Tom 7 Coyne. 8 MR. COYNE: Greetings, Council, Tom 9 Coyne, Minooka. First, I'd like to give thanks 10 to the DPW workers. None of us want to be out 11 there as I was immediately after the snowstorm 12 cleared and before it cleared because I had to 13 run and take a lot of the snow off my sidewalks 14 because I was afraid they were going to get wet 15 snow on top of it and then it would be a caked 16 mess to move. 17 So I went out and cleared my 18 sidewalks multiple times. Unfortunately, I 19 didn't make it here last week. And the reason 20 I didn't make it here last week is they do come 21 through early and push the snow out of the way. 22 And then they never come back again or come 23 back again so far later that most of the time 24 the snow is actually melted from the streets 25 before they ever get around to it. 47 1 My street, I was basically unable to 2 move the car down it without -- with being 3 moving the car safely. And to get to the 4 supermarket, I actually managed up to Pittston, 5 Birney Avenue where it was clear down to the 6 roadway no snow, completely cleaned off long 7 before any of the neighborhood streets were 8 even touched. 9 It's amazing how major thoroughfares 10 can be down to blacktop and clean while there's 11 a foot and a half of snow on neighborhood 12 streets. They did come by on Wednesday and 13 they did a fantastic job at finally clearing it 14 out. I'm thankful for that. 15 And I understand that the workload 16 that they have to do and the entire scope of 17 it. But this is not the first time that it's 18 happened. We have Rubicon and whatever name 19 it's at at this point for tracking. It's not 20 just for tracking trash. 21 It could be used for tracking 22 anything, snow clearing routes. How come we 23 never take the information from data that we 24 have available and actually apply it so we 25 could learn from it and move forward? We pay 48 1 an awful lot for all of the software and 2 contracts to give us information and we ask -- 3 when Council has beforehand asked for this 4 information, what they're told is, oh, we don't 5 collect that specific information. 6 What I'm referring to is when Dr. 7 Rothchild asked for the return trip for 8 customers who didn't leave their trash out how 9 many times they actually go to those return 10 trips and pick them up. They record when the 11 trash isn't out there. But obviously they have 12 no idea when they come back because they 13 couldn't provide that even though they have the 14 tracking system. 15 Water mains, we've had multiple 16 water main breaks. Twice in this month I've 17 been out of water completely because a half 18 block up from us one of the valves and pipes 19 broke. And a month beforehand down at the 20 Birney Plaza, water was coming out under the 21 light post in front of the Mavis Tire because 22 mains cracked there. 23 These mains in my neighborhood were 24 put in in 1965. They're not a hundred years 25 old. They're not 80 years old. So there's 49 1 something more involved other than that. And 2 some of it is just because they were packed in 3 mud. Gravel was never put in there properly to 4 actually insulate the pipes for expansion. 5 And they're just cracking because 6 the dirt on top of them gets cold and pushes 7 pressure against them because when they were 8 put in here in the first place, they were 9 installed poorly. Any place that has water 10 freeze and drainage needs to have gravel around 11 it. 12 But it seems our water system 13 doesn't have -- our water system doesn't have 14 that. So I'm not sure how we're going to 15 correct an entire city whose water system was 16 laid down improperly in the first place. 17 I was hoping Dr. Rothchild would be 18 here. I was hoping she would be here last week 19 because we -- I had made questions on the Flock 20 camera systems. And she came back from the 21 Flock camera systems and gave some of her input 22 back. 23 Unfortunately, the scope of the 24 Flock -- Flock cameras are much greater than 25 was ever even discussed and she's not even 50 1 aware of or hasn't done enough information to 2 even look at Lehto's{phonetic} law on YouTube 3 which goes into the suits that have gone for 4 Flock cameras for even after the city shutting 5 them off, they turn them back on without the 6 city's permission so they can continue 7 surveillance. 8 And there are no safeguards for ICE 9 not being able to go in and look at that 10 database on the mainframe. There's a lot more. 11 But unfortunately tonight I'm out of time. 12 MR. SCHUSTER: Thank you very much. 13 MR. COYNE: Good night. 14 MR. ARGENTA: Good evening, Council, 15 Virgil Argenta, Scranton. It's been a week 16 since the storm. It would be nice if the 17 sidewalks in front of City Hall were clear so 18 there would be access. 19 The city has fulfilled its 20 responsibility to clear snow in downtown as 21 required. However, ABM parking collects 22 revenue from parking meters in those areas. 23 Given this, I ask will ABM Parking 24 contribute to the city's snow cleanup costing 25 the downtown areas where they collect the 51 1 revenue? Taxpayers like us shouldn't bear the 2 full burden when other's benefit financially. 3 We request clarity on this matter and 4 consideration for fair cost sharing for the 5 citizens. 6 The city snow removal and the 7 dumping practice, I'm concerned about the snow 8 dumping practice on a vacant lot along side the 9 Lackawanna River off of Broadway Street. As 10 the city promotes echo friendly initiatives, 11 dumping snow near a river imposes environmental 12 risks. 13 Snow melt can carry contaminates 14 like salt and debris into the river harming 15 aquatic life and water quality. Given 16 Scranton's commitment to sustainability, I 17 request the city reconsider this practice and 18 explore alternative snow disposal methods that 19 protect our river's health. 20 Let's the align our actions with our 21 echo friendly values and prioritize the 22 Lackawanna River's well-being. Council got a 23 raise at the beginning of January. You got 24 almost $20,000 a year. You have a sitting 25 Councilwoman that's missed two meeting so far. 52 1 You miss a month in the summer in 2 July. And you get a month off almost in 3 December. How many meetings can you miss and 4 we, the taxpayers, continue to pay? And not 5 only does she miss the meetings when we're 6 doing presentations, she may leave that seat 7 for 10 to 15 minutes when a citizen has a 8 presentation. 9 We -- I didn't, but they elected her 10 to represent the citizens. How can you give a 11 100 percent attention when you are not here and 12 you get out of that seat and you leave for 10 13 or 15 minutes at a time. Thank you, Council. 14 MR. SCHUSTER: Thank you. Anyone 15 else? Please state your name. 16 MR. TRESLER: Good evening, Council. 17 My name is Willard Tresler. And I live at the 18 University of Scranton in Nevils Hall. So I'm 19 a student at the University. 20 MR. SCHUSTER: Now, did you already 21 sign up to speak? I have a second Willard 22 Tresler here. 23 MR. TRESLER: I didn't speak yet, 24 no. I signed up, yes. 25 MR. SCHUSTER: Okay. Go ahead. 53 1 MR. TRESLER: Okay, so I live at the 2 University of Scranton. And I'm happy to have 3 recently been calling Scranton my home. But 4 there's a lot of issues here. And I feel like 5 there is a lot that's currently going 6 unaddressed by our current Mayor Paige Cognetti 7 while she's currently campaigning for her next 8 position in Congress. 9 And I totally understand if someone 10 would, you know, get a next step up in their 11 career. But first she has to make sure she's 12 done her job correctly. And I think it's fair 13 to say for all of us to say that she has not 14 done the right job. 15 Scranton is not a safe place. I 16 know people that go to the University who stay 17 on campus on the weekends there's strange 18 people walking around. I know in December 19 we've had a stabbing, a shooting, and a 20 pedestrian hit resulting in a death all in the 21 span of I think about two weeks. 22 So I think it's fair to say that, 23 you know, there's issues in Scranton. And 24 you've heard plenty of issues earlier. The 25 streets aren't getting plowed. The water pipes 54 1 are breaking. The other day I had brown water 2 flowing up from my toilets in my dorm hall 3 because the water pipes are broken. 4 I'm not a plumber, but surely 5 whoever put that in didn't do it the right way. 6 And I think if we have this many issues here in 7 Scranton, our Mayor certainly shouldn't be in 8 Washington, DC, with the National Mayor's 9 Conference. 10 She should be here in her city. 11 She's not elected to go to DC. We have people 12 for that. She's not elected to go to DC. 13 She's elected to stay here, work here, and 14 serve the people sitting right here. She's not 15 sitting here. 16 How is she supposed to know what 17 she's supposed to do when the people who 18 elected her are here and she's not? It's not 19 right for the people. It's not right for -- 20 sorry to the people who have lived here for 21 20, 30 years. It not right for me who just got 22 here. 23 I'm a freshman and political science 24 student. And I feel like I know enough to know 25 that this isn't right. The people aren't being 55 1 represented as they should and nobody is doing 2 anything about it. I want to know if the City 3 Council would do anything about it. 4 We shouldn't be expecting the bare 5 minimum from our Mayor. We should be expecting 6 the absolute best. And if she isn't doing that 7 for the best here, how can we expect she does 8 the absolute best in Washington, DC. Thank 9 you. 10 MR. SCHUSTER: Thank you. Anyone 11 else like to address Council? 12 MR. ESPINAL: Good evening, Council. 13 Good evening, my name is Ramone Espinal, 14 R-A-M-O-N, Espinal, E-S-P-I-N-A-L. And I live 15 in Scranton, yes. I would like you to take 16 notice where I live 1344 Penn Avenue, P-E-N-N, 17 Avenue. 18 First of all, yes, the reason I came 19 here to, right, to meet you guy, Council, to 20 confirm the date and purpose of the Mayor trip 21 to Washington, DC during the period when 22 Scranton was under the clear state of 23 emergency. That's the first thing. 24 I just want to talk a little bit 25 here. Everybody talked about the main concern 56 1 is about the situation of our city. And I 2 guess I fortunately, I grow up in the state of 3 New York. And different -- it's different 4 city. But I love the city. 5 I feel here like I'm in Europe. But 6 the way how this city handled the city -- when 7 I say the city handled the city, right, you guy 8 to me it's a pride. And it's specific. My 9 wall and all surrounding the street, everybody 10 mention the sad situation -- the street crack, 11 broken, hole all around. 12 The sidewalk right there where I 13 live, you can't walk on sidewalk. This is 14 crazy. Nobody can walk on the sidewalk. They 15 almost have to walk on the street. So where is 16 the representative? Where is? It's amazing. 17 About the storm right now, the snow, it's a 18 little bit -- we understand the situation. 19 But where you guys also where the 20 Mayor is. Why we pay taxes? This is 21 unacceptable. Oh, my goodness. So the 22 Constitution says, we the people. But we look 23 like we not the people. No, we don't. We 24 don't. 25 We elect you guys to do the work. 57 1 So what about what's going on? Don't forget, 2 when you been elected, you went step by step to 3 get the position. But on the same way, if you 4 do us work, you have to go down again step by 5 step down. I'm sorry to say that. But I'm 6 very, very, believe me. Believe me. I'm 7 upset. 8 I don't want to have to go back to 9 New York. I don't want it. I like the city. 10 But administration what we have right now, is 11 not successful. About someplace, the house, 12 the value increase, is good. But the taxes 13 also increase. 14 To do what with the taxes? To 15 taking care of what? Yes, about -- you can 16 contact me. I'm a construction contractor. 17 And I'm crazy to do work for the city right 18 here in Scranton. All around is easy, very 19 easy. You can get the job done in a few days. 20 Not in Scranton. Why? Yes, why? 21 You see the enforcement car every 22 single day looking for what, taxes? And that's 23 good. Because with taxes, you have to do a lot 24 of thing. But why you do it, guys. Thank you 25 so much. Good night. 58 1 MR. SCHUSTER: Thank you. Next is 2 Rik Little. 3 MR. LITTLE: Hello, Council, Rik 4 Little. We're in a precipice right now. And 5 living in Scranton, I'd like to comment about 6 where we are, I mean, you know, the Mayor came 7 from Portland, Oregon where the first Antifa 8 called Rose City Antifa started. It's a 9 terrorist organization. 10 I have been following this group for 11 many, many years to people that were in the 12 Thompkins Square riot in New York City. I've 13 seen them go -- come and go going into Black 14 Rock. I've seen them in operation in Germany 15 and their tactics. It's always opposite land. 16 You're a Nazi, you know, we're 17 Antifa. You know, like that's a -- it's crazy 18 land. And this is all promoted by the media 19 and what they've been doing, I mean, it's 20 mainly nine sanctuary cities where all the 21 violence is happening. 22 The whole draining of the criminals 23 who came across the border is happening very, 24 very smoothly in most of the states. It's 25 basically nine cities, which includes 59 1 Minneapolis and New York City and, you know, 2 it's a cultural thing. 3 Opposite land, you know, release the 4 Epstein files. It's clear to me that Epstein 5 is the father of Mamdani, the Mayor of New York 6 which sounds like conspiracy theory crazy. But 7 I've grown up, you know, I seen the picture of 8 Bill Clinton shaking JFK's hand. 9 You know, we're living a world where 10 they could change everything, the media. And 11 what's happening in California when I think 12 about Scranton, oh, when the railroad comes 13 everything will be okay. I think about that 14 Gavin Newsome railroad. You know, billions and 15 billions of dollars just being syphoned off. 16 Constitutionality, you know, they 17 turned it on its head around the world the idea 18 of freedom of religion and freedom of speech. 19 And we're seeing, I mean, we're seeing plans 20 that were made decades and decades ago. And 21 basically I mean, Alex Jones is right on. He's 22 been right on since the beginning. 23 You see him getting prosecuted. And 24 you could see how part and parcel of everything 25 is how the judiciary goes into this. They are 60 1 going to bankrupt him and suing him. But it's 2 his advice to President Trump in his 19 -- 3 1776 paper -- about a 30 page paper you could 4 look up of what is really happening. 5 Last week I said, you know, he's 6 doing the Monroe Doctrine. But our country is 7 in a Civil War. And the second pandemic has 8 been released and it's cancer. It's cancer. 9 And millions of people are dying and millions 10 of people are dying with abortion. 11 And so when I started college, I'm 12 really glad to see people from the political 13 science and things from University come here to 14 talk about their college town. But this town 15 is, you know, Joe Biden's hometown. And I just 16 think it's criminal that they have Biden Street 17 and Biden Expressway because the only reason 18 those signs ever went up -- it wasn't because 19 the people voted it in. 20 It went up because all the agencies 21 are being federally funded. And that's how 22 they operate, you know, they get the money just 23 like USAID. The media -- the paper, you read, 24 oh, it's an op-ed by Bloomberg and then people 25 talk about Soros and Governor Shapiro. 61 1 I mean, Soros gave $500,000 but 2 Bloomberg gives like $200,000. So most of 3 these people in offices are puppets, including 4 our Mayor -- Mayor Paige Cognetti. And we have 5 to hold their feet to the fire because she 6 doesn't live in Scranton. 7 MR. SCHUSTER: Thank you. Fifth 8 Order. 9 MR. VOLDENBERG: FIFTH ORDER. 5-A. 10 MOTIONS. 11 MR. SCHUSTER: Mr. McAndrew, do you 12 have any motions or comments? 13 MR. SEAN MCANDREW: Sure. First, I 14 want to start off with a citizen's question I 15 received this week. I believe on the 700 16 block of North Sumner, the resident told me 17 there's a boat that's been there for about five 18 years. It hasn't moved. There's a tarp over 19 it. So they don't know whose it is. I guess 20 grass has grown into it and stuff. So can we 21 reach out to code enforcement to take a look at 22 that? 23 MR. VOLDENBERG: I will, Mr. 24 McAndrew. 25 MR. SEAN MCANDREW: Okay. I'm going 62 1 to go over some last -- some responses I 2 received from last week that came today from 3 the questions I asked. But before I read them 4 for -- the first one would be the question I 5 asked for the fidelity building, asking if 6 there would be a more in depth inspection done. 7 The inspection we got one was from 8 the engineering which was from October when 9 Council didn't even vote on this until I 10 believe some point in December. And the 11 agreement wasn't signed on until the end of 12 December. The response I got back was I asked 13 if they would be getting another more 14 comprehensive inspection done before the due 15 diligence period expires. 16 The response I got was yes, not who, 17 what, when, where or anything more than just 18 yes. So, Attorney Gilbride, can you read that 19 part of the contract that states what needs to 20 be done before -- like, what's the due diligent 21 period and how much time we have? 22 ATTY. GILBRIDE: Certainly, 23 Councilman. In a shut shell with the -- do you 24 want me to read the whole thing -- 25 MR. SEAN MCANDREW: No, just if you 63 1 want to sum it up, that's fine. 2 ATTY. GILBRIDE: So the contract as 3 signed by the Mayor and the President of 4 Fidelity Bank on December 30th states that 5 within 45 days of the signing of the agreement, 6 the buyer being the city would have the ability 7 to conduct an inspection. 8 And if there was a determination by 9 an independent professional engineer that there 10 was adverse conditions in the amount greater 11 than $50,000 that they would bring that to the 12 attention of the seller, the bank at which time 13 the bank could either fix that or said they 14 didn't want to and I would assume they would 15 have the ability to step out of the deal. 16 By my math, the 45 days runs on 17 February 13th. I could be off. I'm an 18 attorney, not an accountant. But that's how I 19 read the -- that portion of the agreement that 20 was signed on December 30th. 21 MR. SEAN MCANDREW: Thank you. Mr. 22 Voldenberg, can you ask if the report -- the 23 comprehensive report is done, if not, when it 24 will be done and who is conducting it and when 25 they expect it to be done because we're running 64 1 out of time as you heard Solicitor Gilbride 2 say, you know, the deadline for the 45 day 3 grace period is the 13th. 4 MR. VOLDENBERG: I'll ask that 5 question. 6 ATTY. GILBRIDE: And, Mr. McAndrew, 7 I did, in fact, already e-mail the City 8 Solicitor asking those questions. 9 MR. SEAN MCANDREW: Perfect. Thank 10 you so much. Next, we'll go on the snow 11 update. I did ask for, you know, the plan that 12 they had. You know, they worked on -- they 13 knew the snow was coming. They said they had, 14 you know, a few days that they were working 15 together on a plan. 16 So I did ask for the plan and then 17 also a post storm report. The answer I got 18 back was the DPW Director will do an 19 afteraction review of the past snowstorm. You 20 know, I appreciate them saying that they are 21 committing to do it. I would ask if they could 22 post that on the website too so the residents 23 could see it. 24 But also, please ask what -- if 25 they -- what the plan was before the storm. I 65 1 know they had multiple meetings with DPW, the 2 director and the administration. So what was 3 their plan leading into the storm. I would 4 like to see a copy of that. 5 Some great questions were asked by 6 the citizens regarding the storm and how it was 7 handled. There's some questions I would like 8 answered too, like, when there isn't any 9 garbage, what are the garbage guys doing? My 10 understanding is they're cleaning off the 11 bridges and assisting there. 12 So that would be one question I 13 would like to see -- see answered. You know, 14 also, you know, when they were back to work, 15 are they back up to full staff? Was there an 16 opportunity to use them instead of using all of 17 these contractors to maybe to save some money? 18 So it would be interesting to see 19 what the plan of the storm was and also the 20 post report that they're going to be giving us. 21 So I appreciate that. 22 MR. VOLDENBERG: I'll take care of 23 it. 24 MR. SEAN MCANDREW: Next would be 25 the ARPA information. Originally I got 66 1 multiple documents and from previous 2 information that was sent to Council before I 3 got on Council. And they gave me a nice 4 spreadsheet of some of the awards. 5 I kind of asked for everything in 6 one place, especially on a spreadsheet because 7 it was broken down very well. But I got the 8 same exact spreadsheet back and then just an 9 updated quarterly report which I believe was 10 coming anyways. 11 So I will do a deep dive into that 12 because we just got the answers today. But I'm 13 under the impression they might have had an 14 audit done already on this. If so, can we get 15 a copy of it. And if not, maybe that's 16 something we could look into ourselves as 17 Council doing an audit for the ARPA funds. 18 MR. VOLDENBERG: I will, sir. 19 MR. SEAN MCANDREW: All right. My 20 next question is, is there a visitor policy or 21 was there ever an e-mail sent on what are the 22 rules if a department has somebody coming to 23 meet with them or visitors coming into the 24 building? The reason I ask for that is before 25 I had even a temporary badge, I had to come 67 1 into City Hall to meet with IT. 2 The doors were locked obviously. So 3 when I called our office, I think you were on 4 the other line. So I wasn't able to get 5 through. I went into one of the other 6 departments to ask if they could, you know, let 7 me in because I had a meeting with IT. 8 And I'm not saying it's the 9 employee's fault. They just didn't let me in. 10 They said, you know, I have to -- let me reach 11 out to IT. They confirmed I had an 12 appointment. They said they'll send somebody 13 up to get me. I'm just wondering if that is 14 the policy or if that is something that was 15 sent out to employees just so we could know 16 going forward if we have to meet with anybody 17 in City Hall. 18 MR. VOLDENBERG: I'll take care of 19 it. 20 MR. SEAN MCANDREW: And to caveat 21 onto that, I know, Frank, we talked when you 22 kind of walked me around the building when I 23 got on Council. When you walk into City Hall, 24 the LIPS Department is on the right and I 25 believe it was the OECD office on the -- sorry, 68 1 LIPS is on the left, OECD is on the right. 2 You explained to me that they kind 3 of moved that office. And a reason there they 4 might be putting another conference room in 5 there. What I would like to see if my 6 colleagues would be interested in maybe asking 7 if that could be an office for the City Council 8 to have just if residents want to meet with us 9 in person we have somewhere to go because the 10 office up here, there's really not a lot of 11 room in there. 12 There's just, you know, your desk 13 and the two original employees' desk. But also 14 if we want to hold, like, office hours if, you 15 know, someone were off one day at work and -- 16 or we might have some free time and say, hey, 17 Councilman -- this Councilman is going to be in 18 the office if you want to stop in and ask some 19 questions or talk to them, I think it just 20 would be a great way to, you know, have us be 21 visible in City Hall but also, you know, 22 available if we can be or have somewhere to 23 meet with with residents or anybody. 24 Because, you know, when I was 25 running, there was a lot of questions on 69 1 Geisinger meeting with Council members in 2 lawyer's offices and stuff like that. And I 3 think, you know, if there's going to be 4 meetings with individual Council, no better 5 place to do it in the people's building where 6 everybody could see. 7 MR. VOLDENBERG: I'll check on the 8 accessibility. 9 MR. SEAN MCANDREW: Okay. And then 10 finally, e-mails. So during the last Council 11 meeting before the meeting we were sent an 12 e-mail -- I was told we were sent an e-mail 13 from the school district regarding the 14 intersections being, you know, not passable for 15 our busses. 16 There was an e-mail that was sent to 17 the Mayor's office and us that I was told 18 included 30 pictures. That was sent on Tuesday 19 maybe around 4 or 5:00. Never got it. I 20 called them on Friday to say, hey, can you send 21 that again to my e-mail address and then cc my 22 personal one just to see if I could get it in 23 my personal. It's not coming to my city 24 address. 25 So they sent it. I got it 70 1 immediately from my personal e-mail, didn't get 2 it to my city e-mail. So today I followed back 3 up and asked the employee at the district to 4 see, okay, can you just send me a test e-mail 5 from your address at the school district to my 6 city e-mail? And I didn't even get that. 7 So I don't know what's going on. 8 I'm not sure if -- I know my colleagues, I 9 asked them. They said they didn't receive any 10 e-mail. So one e-mail's a week late. The 11 other one is now five days and then one today I 12 didn't get. 13 So I have some concerns with e-mails 14 coming in and -- coming into us. I'm not sure 15 if there's -- I thought maybe because there was 16 so many attachments there's like a block or 17 filter. It wasn't in my junk or anything. So 18 that's when I had them send the other e-mail, 19 the test one with no attachments, no nothing, 20 and that didn't come through. 21 And I don't know why we'd be 22 blocking, you know, e-mails from our school 23 district. We're supposed to be in, you know, 24 partnership and working together. And my fear 25 is how many more e-mails are we getting from 71 1 residents that might not come through. 2 So can you ask them if I could maybe 3 work with you to set up a meeting with our IT 4 Director and I might even bring an IT person 5 myself because I'm not really well versed on 6 that. So but if you could reach out to them 7 and also get us some information regarding why 8 the e-mails might not go through so all my 9 colleagues could see it as well. 10 MR. VOLDENBERG: I'll reach out to 11 Mr. Reager. 12 MR. SEAN MCANDREW: All right. And 13 that's all I have. Thank you. 14 MR. SCHUSTER: Thank you very much. 15 In terms of the ARPA funds, there was an audit 16 that was included in the initial passing of 17 ARPA. Can we just see where are they at with 18 the audit because is it something that happens 19 afterwards or what the timeline is of when that 20 will occur? 21 MR. VOLDENBERG: I will, sir. 22 MR. SCHUSTER: Thank you very much. 23 Mr. Flynn, do you have any questions or 24 comments -- motions or comments? 25 MR. FLYNN: Yes, I do. Thank you. 72 1 So I'll go snow removal as well, start of with 2 that. I know a lot of individuals have talked 3 about it here tonight. There's been a lot of 4 discussion over the past week. So I'm just 5 going to go through some of the specific 6 questions that I asked the administration and 7 some of the answers I got and where I feel it 8 all falls. 9 And I do agree with residents when I 10 woke up the day after Council and saw that 11 about the mass calloffs it was staggering to me 12 as well. Right, and I don't know the exact 13 reason or rationale or anything behind those 14 calloffs. 15 But that's a lot of calloffs. But 16 also, the article stated and the headline 17 stated that mass -- the plowing was hampered by 18 mass calloffs. So I don't know if both things 19 can be true at once. But I will read through 20 these and then give my opinion a little bit 21 more. 22 So my first question was, how many 23 plow trucks were on the road, what areas were 24 the plow trucks sent to. The response I 25 received were we had up to 16 plow trucks on 73 1 the road given the manpower available. Trucks 2 were sent throughout the city. 3 I asked how many trucks are 4 dedicated to each neighborhood. I was told two 5 in East Mountain, one in the Hill Section with 6 assistance from East Mountain crew and East 7 Scranton, three in South Side, one in downtown 8 in Minooka, two in Green Ridge, two in North 9 Scranton, three in West Scranton and two in 10 West Mountain. 11 Now, this next question is where 12 the -- it gets a little confusing to me. I 13 asked were there any routes that were not 14 covered? And the answer was just no. So 15 that's where I get a little confused with 16 efforts were hampered by the lack of personnel 17 when I ask were there any routes that were not 18 covered by the plow trucks during the storm and 19 the answer is no. 20 I said what routes were not covered. 21 The response was all routes were covered. Did 22 the city pretreat the roads? Yes, with brine. 23 How many private contractors were used and what 24 were the routes they were given? There were 25 five outside contractors brought in to support 74 1 the department and were deployed at the 2 direction of the director. 3 So my question, Mr. Voldenberg, now 4 to the administration is, okay, they were 5 deployed at the direction of the director. 6 What was the direction of the director if you 7 could ask that question? 8 MR. VOLDENBERG: I will, sir. 9 MR. FLYNN: So what time did the 10 plowing operations begin in each specific area 11 of the city. The city ran continuous overtime 12 shifts beginning at 4 a.m., Sunday morning. 13 What is the priority order for plowing? 14 Operational decisions are made by the DPW 15 Director based on weather conditions. 16 So, Mr. Voldenberg, I would like to 17 follow up with the administration and ask what 18 those operational decisions were for this 19 specific snowstorm because, you know, I always 20 thought hospitals and schools were first, 21 right? And we got a few calls in the City 22 Council office on the state of the roads around 23 Moses Taylor Hospital. 24 And I took a ride up there on 25 Tuesday afternoon and it was not good there. 75 1 So I would like to know from the director what 2 -- what that priority order was for this 3 specific storm just -- more so in an effort if 4 there's something we need to change with that, 5 there's something we need to change with that. 6 MR. VOLDENBERG: I will, sir. 7 MR. FLYNN: So that is all the 8 response I get. So, you know, my belief and 9 I'll see what else we hear back from the 10 administration -- oh, I would also like to 11 follow up on just to get as specific of 12 information as I possibly can, it says we had 13 up to 16 plow trucks on the road given the 14 manpower available. 15 So I would just like to know at what 16 point were there plows that were ready and 17 available to be out plowing that were not on 18 the streets due to a lack of manpower. I think 19 that's important for all of us to know. And 20 once again, I believe that 40 calloffs -- 21 that's a pretty wild number to deal with when 22 you think about it. 23 And I don't know -- once again, I 24 don't know the rationale is for that. I'm not 25 going to opine on what it may or may not be. 76 1 It's certainly an issue. And I think to one of 2 the resident's points earlier, there are other 3 things that these workers could be doing. 4 And I think it's a conversation that 5 we need to have. But I also want to make sure 6 that everything is out in the open and 7 transparent to say could both of those things 8 be true at once or is one thing overriding the 9 other in terms of was the plowing hampered by 10 this. Were they two separate things and both 11 issues just to get a clear understanding and 12 picture of the entire situation. 13 So I look forward to getting those 14 responses from the administration to get a 15 fuller view of what happened with the storm. 16 The next thing so that I've been talking about 17 a lot with Pennsylvania American Water and the 18 issues in Green Ridge and this -- so I was 19 asking sort of how did this happen, how are all 20 of these streets shut down at once. 21 Basically you couldn't get in and 22 out of Green Ridge for an elongated period of 23 time due to all the work going on there. And 24 the one response I got that I found 25 interesting -- let me find it -- was inspectors 77 1 now perform weekly drive-throughs to flag 2 failing sections following the fall complaints 3 in Green Ridge. Inspectors return to sites and 4 coordinated repairs with utilities on a 5 case-by-case basis. 6 And now we're doing these weekly 7 drive-throughs. I don't know if I buy that. I 8 go down Electric Street every single day for 9 the past month and a half. There's been a 10 massive failing pave cut on the 1100 block of 11 Electric Street. So if we could get these 12 inspectors to go and check out that one 13 specifically and more so, especially the hill 14 of Electric Street. In the 17 and 1600 blocks 15 of Wyoming Avenue there are pave cut failing 16 all over the place. 17 And they have been for quite some 18 time. So if we could follow up with that with 19 the administration and try to get that taken 20 care of, I'd really appreciate it. 21 MR. VOLDENBERG: I will, Mr. Flynn. 22 MR. FLYNN: Let me see if there's -- 23 I got some responses back on the code blue 24 shelters and some of the added resources that 25 we could potentially put into those. I'm also 78 1 going to be meeting with Chief Judge on Friday 2 to discuss some ways to get some more resources 3 inside the Code Blue Shelter. 4 So I'll report more on that next 5 week. But I'm staying on that. I'm adamant 6 about getting as many resources as we can into 7 those shelters while we have individuals there 8 to help -- to help them in any way we can as a 9 city, not necessarily as the intervenor but as 10 a convener to get some of those resources there 11 to help individuals get to that next step in 12 their lives not just be a band-aid on a bullet 13 wound, so-to-speak, but to really try to help 14 these individuals help themselves in the long 15 run. 16 The one other thing that I had, Mr. 17 Voldenberg, is there's been discussion around 18 some of these -- some of these projects going 19 on and Meadow Brook being one of them. And, 20 you know, the state pushing the city now to 21 potentially go down the road of condemnations 22 on some of these properties and those to get 23 this Meadow Brook line and work done. 24 The question I have is, if it comes 25 to the condemnations if we can't get on the 79 1 same page with some of the property owners, how 2 many of those properties on that Meadow Brook 3 line have a portion of the line that actually 4 impacts their house, it goes under their actual 5 dwelling versus a portion of their backyard and 6 can we get a list of those individuals who may 7 impact their actual dwelling? 8 MR. VOLDENBERG: I will, sir. 9 MR. FLYNN: That's all I have for 10 tonight. Thank you. 11 MR. SCHUSTER: Thank you very much. 12 To piggyback off Mr. Flynn there on those pave 13 cut inspections, they were talking about the 14 weekly inspections and weekly drive-bys of 15 those pave cuts. Can we just add to that and 16 just say how is the city ensuring that 17 inspectors are doing those weekly drive-bys or 18 weekly inspections of pave cuts? 19 MR. VOLDENBERG: I'll ask that 20 question. 21 MR. SCHUSTER: Thank you very much. 22 For anybody that watched the meeting last week 23 and it was the meeting right after the 24 snowstorm, all of Council up here asked 25 multiple questions that ran the spectrum of 80 1 this snowstorm and cleanup. Mr. Flynn and Mr. 2 McAndrew did a great job here of asking some of 3 those questions. 4 I did the same and our office -- the 5 members of our office fielded a lot of calls 6 during that time and so did the members of 7 Council. And we tried to get those concerns 8 over to DPW to ensure that they were -- they 9 were met. 10 But some of the questions I got -- I 11 asked about -- I inquired the number of 12 snowplows in the city, how many are functional, 13 how many are in need of repair. I got the 14 answer was 18 in the fleet. Regarding the next 15 snowstorm, I did ask with the upcoming 16 snowstorm -- this was the snowstorm that missed 17 us on Sunday, how many of the plows will be on 18 the road at that point in time if we get the 19 snowstorm. 20 And they said that we have 13 plows 21 ready for use, five are awaiting repairs and 22 one which would be back within the week. I 23 asked about salt for the next snowstorm. Does 24 the city have enough salt on hand for that next 25 snowstorm. 81 1 And they stated that the city has 2 adequate resources to continue addressing 3 snowstorms. I asked about the city salt 4 purchases, have they been making the same salt 5 purchase capacitywise for the last years 6 purchasing the same amount. 7 And the answer that came back was 8 the city has increased it's contracted purchase 9 amounts this year over last. And I did ask for 10 those totals from 2021 to 2026, which I did 11 receive. 12 Another thing to add regarding our 13 snow cleanup, can we just ask does Rubicon 14 assist in our snowplow routes? Thank you very 15 much. Going into ARPA, we did get some 16 spreadsheets back with ARPA funds and some of 17 the grants that were put out. 18 But there was several different 19 categories that it didn't include. So we saw 20 that we had a spreadsheet that included 21 recovery grants, wage boost and small business 22 startups. But there was other categories. 23 And these categories were basically 24 subcontracted out to other groups, 25 NeighborWorks, Scranton Tomorrow, groups like 82 1 that, etc. Can we ask how does the city track 2 those grants and if we could have a list of 3 what was given to those entities and how they 4 portion those out to those -- to those 5 individuals and businesses as well as the 6 education area because there was some -- there 7 was a category for education as well. 8 MR. VOLDENBERG: I will, sir. 9 MR. SCHUSTER: Thank you. I asked 10 about retention pond for Keyser Valley which 11 was supposed to be coming soon. And if it was 12 going to be built on land for Newton because I 13 know they were negotiating something there. 14 And the answer I got back was the 15 Keyser Valley stormwater project is in the 16 permit review process currently. So please 17 note that that proposed basin will be 18 constructed within Scranton city limits. 19 Let's see. We talked about a SRA 20 Director, the Scranton Redevelopment Authority. 21 We heard that they got a new director. So we 22 did ask if they did, in fact, get a new 23 director. And the answer we got back was, yes, 24 Andrew Cutillo is the new Executive Director of 25 the SRA as of January, 2026. And the SRA Board 83 1 appoints that individual. 2 We talked about an item on our 3 agenda tonight when it comes to stormwater on 4 Keyser Valley, four properties were affected 5 when it comes to easements. And we asked if 6 those individuals were contacted, has the city 7 been in contact with them. And the city stated 8 they have been working with those project 9 owners -- with those property owners in the 10 project area. 11 We asked about data centers and SAPA 12 and if that would be included. And what was -- 13 the answer that we received back was the SAPA 14 process is in its early stages. But the 15 subject of data centers will be covered. 16 We asked about PEL five year 17 forecasting and they did send that document 18 over. It came over this afternoon. So we'll 19 have a chance to review that document later. 20 Mr. Mark McAndrew isn't here tonight. 21 But there are several questions 22 about the HUP test. This is something we've -- 23 many members of Council have asked for updates 24 on the HUP test I would say at least monthly. 25 So we asked about where we're at in the process 84 1 right now. 2 And the answer we got back was the 3 city -- it's a point of Council and the 4 assessment office reviewed a draft letter this 5 week to entities that did not respond to the 6 assessment office in May of 2025. 7 The assessment office is targeting a 8 mailing for the second letter early next week. 9 And the letter includes a submission deadline 10 of April 1st of 2026. As Mr. McAndrew said, we 11 did ask for an afteraction plan, which we're 12 waiting on and we're being assured that that 13 will come in regards to the snowstorm so we 14 could touch back on that a little bit later. 15 Two other things that I have, Mr. 16 Voldenberg, can we get an update on the 17 Providence Square repair? It's been quite some 18 time. We got an answer back from Eileen 19 Cipriani that they were looking to insurance, 20 where they're with that process if that's the 21 route they're going to take and any updates 22 that we have so far. 23 MR. VOLDENBERG: I'll find out. 24 MR. SCHUSTER: Thank you. And 25 another address that I had was 915 Euclid 85 1 Avenue. I asked for update where the city is 2 with that property at this point in time and if 3 we have any updates on that. 4 MR. VOLDENBERG: I'll take care of 5 it. 6 MR. SCHUSTER: Thank you very much. 7 That's all for tonight. 8 MR. VOLDENBERG: 5-B.
