Scot Rigby Assistant City Manager, reviewed the item.
Council Member Blubaugh asked staff if they have lived up to all of their other commitments in the
agreement.
Scot Rigby Assistant City Manager stated they have, they have made the capital improvements to the
building, they have hired 26 to date and have more job openings but due to COVID-19, they have had to
suspend those at this time.
Council Member Blubaugh asked what the total number of employees is that they are supposed to hire.

employees.

Scot Rigby Assistant City Manager stated 2023 will be their standard five year review and at that point
they have agreed that they will have hired up to 150 new employees for the company.
Council Member Blubaugh stated is it correct that we normally don't do land; we just are here because of
an administrative issue?

issue.

MAY 5, 2020
Council Member Blubaugh asked staff if they know of any others coming up.
Scot Rigby Assistant City Manager stated no.
Council Member Frye stated during last Friday's agenda review, he asked a question about the ROI and
that WSU had performed a new analysis with this change but looking back at the original action on
January 18, the ROI was a 2.54 to 1.00 and now it is saying it is a 3.08 to 1.00 with this additional
abatement. Stated how is that possible that the ROI goes up when we are losing tax revenue.
Scot Rigby Assistant City Manager stated he asked that same question and went back to WSU and did the
update and what they did was a more accurate assessment of the improvements to the building versus the
value of land. Stated they actually brought down the value of improvements that they originally estimated
within the building even though it was $1.8 million; WSU had applied a higher ratio of improvements to
the building to the value of the land. Stated in this new process with the updated numbers, they reduced
the evaluation of the building improvements to the value of the land and that increased to cost benefit
value.
Council Member Frye stated it is hind sight and after the fact so they were able to clean it up.
Scot Rigby Assistant City Manager stated correct.
Council Member Clendenin thanked staff for working on this when it was brought to our attention and for
going back and making the correction and taking other actions to make sure that this doesn't happen
again.
MOTION:
Council Member Clendenin moved to close the public hearing, place on first reading the ordinance
granting Martin Enterprises, LLC a 100% tax exemption for land and building, except for any capital
outlay levy assessed by the local school district, on the identified real property improvements for a five-
year term, plus a 100% tax exemption, except for any capital outlay levy assessed by the local school
district, for a second five-year term, subject to City Council review and authorize the necessary
signatures.
Motion carried 7 to 0.

Donte Martin Assistant City Manager, reviewed the item.
Susan Santo, CEO of Visit Wichita reported on the 2019 performance, 2020 goals and planning for 2021.
Council Member Johnson stated as you all are supporting our partners in this, it might be ideal to also
promote a stay-cation so that we can get folks here in Wichita to maybe get a room night in a hotel once
Page 5
CITY COUNCIL PROCEEDINGS
MAY 5, 2020
all of this is over with and people are safely coming out. Stated people may want to get away and maybe a
day in a local hotel could be a benefit.
Susie Santo, Visit Wichita stated that is a fantastic thought to try and encourage residents to get out and
support all the travel and tourism partners and thinks many folks will be ready to do just that.
Mayor Whipple stated he has had people reach out to him who want more details on how public dollars
are spent through Visit Wichita. Stated his understanding is that it is a bit complex where there is some
information that would jeopardize your ability to compete with other markets by showing the playbook
that you utilize against markets like Oklahoma City; or is there other information that might be more
beneficial for those who want to dig more into the numbers. Stated would you be opposed to a
transparency committee of three members of the Council, we can work with you between now when your
final budget is approved to come to an agreement on some of this stuff that could be released.
Susie Santo, Visit Wichita stated she would be happy to work with the City staff and circle back on that.
Stated you are right as we have been asked that question; putting us at a competitive disadvantage is
something we don't want to do for Wichita. Stated they have been following the opinion previously issued
by County District Attorney and will be happy to circle back with the City Manager and provide whatever
information is needed.
Mayor Whipple stated his goal is for himself and Council Member Frye who already sits on your board
and possibly appoint a third person to work with you either before or after our meetings with our
constituents to talk about what information people are looking for while also making sure you guys stay
competitive and asked if she would be in support of an addition to the recommended action that would
create such a committee that would work directly with you.
Susie Santo, Visit Wichita stated absolutely.
MOTION:
Mayor Whipple moved to receive, approve and file the Tourism Business Improvement District (TBID)
2021 Scope of Services with an amendment to form a transparency committee with three members to
create a policy to be presented and voted on, on or before the next budget is approved for Visit Wichita
and for that committee would like to appoint Council Members Frye, Blubaugh and himself to that
committee.
Vice Mayor Claycomb asked if Council Members Frye and Blubaugh are willing to do that.
Council Member Blubaugh nodded yes.
Council Member Frye stated yes.
Motion carried 7 to 0.

Gary Janzen Engineering Department, reviewed the item.
Council Member Frye stated these bills will not be going through the developer, they will be going
strictly to the customer and pass through from the City of Wichita; is that correct?
Gary Janzen Engineering Department stated correct, the developer will never see any kind of cost
associated with this except for the fact of marketing their lots, that there is going to be a five percent add
on to their bills.
MOTION:
Mayor Whipple moved to approve the Water Service Agreement with RWD #4 and authorize the

9.) CITY OF WICHITA FREE TRANSIT SERVICE ON SATURDAYS.
Attachment: Agenda Report No. V-9.docx
(Council Member Blubaugh momentarily left the bench)
Mike Tann Transit Director, reviewed the item.
Council Member Frye stated at last Friday's agenda review, he asked the question about possibly a
weekday that we might be able to do this, especially since the CARES Funding is covering this revenue;
why wouldn't we also consider a weekday.
Mike Tann Transit Director stated that he and the City Manager have had a number of ongoing
discussions with regards to how potentially we could roll out things like that. Stated it is very dynamic,
our buses are socially distanced so that reduces the number of people we can transport on each individual
bus. Stated during the weekday brings a number of things to bear but thinks he and the City Manager will
be developing some plans that they can bring forward that will hopefully accomplish what it is you would
like to see.
Council Member Frye stated he likes the idea of this project and Saturday is a great option but with so
many other businesses not open on the weekends, if we could do a weekday that would be great.
Mike Tann Transit Director stated we have had some requests from people that call our offices and that is
one of the things as the stay at home order starts to be relaxed, more and more destinations that people are
going to have to get to, start to become a requirement. Stated we are hoping we can bring a plan for your
approval that meets those requirements but also make sure that we protect the people who ride the buses
as well.
Page 8
CITY COUNCIL PROCEEDINGS
MAY 5, 2020
Bob Layton City Manager stated staff had talked about Tuesday being our lightest weekday and we
looked at that but if you go ahead and maintain the appropriate distancing to keep people safe on the bus,
and then you look at the number of riders that we typically have, you probably couldn't get any more than
12 people on the bus and then we would be squeezing people out and making it difficult to provide
service so that is we are going to look at some other alternatives.
Mike Tann Transit Director stated the CARES Funding gives us a lot of options and with the number of
groups that are out there for public transportation, almost on a daily basis there is options that are being
presented so as he and the City Manager have an option to review those situations as they come up and as
CDC rules and how things are adjusted, he is sure that we are going to be able to adjust as we move
forward and hopefully be able to meet the requirements of both what CDC says but also to provide as
much potential opportunity for transit options for our people that we can.
Council Member Tuttle stated you are being incredibly adaptive, which we know is important during
uncertain times. Stated she received an email from a constituent who questioned how the transit system is
being cleaned and to make sure that we are using all precautions during this time and you gave an
outstanding response to that email. Stated as people are moving around the City more and are going to
rely on transit to do that; asked staff if he would highlight some of the exceptional precautions that he is
taking so that people know it is safe to ride transit.
Mike Tann Transit Director stated he would be remiss if he didn't say how valuable all of the transit
employees are to providing the service that is out on the street today. Stated they come to work every day,
they are on the front lines, they are dealing with customers, and a pandemic and the normal stresses that
they have. Stated every single employee at Wichita Transit has impressed him immensely on how well
they conduct their jobs every single day. Stated our buses are disinfected every night when they come in,
they are also disinfected at the Transit Center when they come in, in-between their routes, they all report
back to the Transit Center so we have staff down there that are constantly wiping down all of our buses
and all of our fare boxes and facilities that are down in the Transit Center area and also our administrative
offices. Stated we have a deep cleaning crew that works every weekend that deep cleans all of the buses,
we put protective plastic shields for our operators, between them and the fare box area. Stated our buses
have clearly marked seats that are available for passengers and then seats not available for passengers
through social distancing and have had a lot of good feedback from our customers in order to do that.
Stated if drivers report anything, we immediately switch the buses out and that is one of the options we
have available to us with no school, we have extra equipment that is available, which may help us as we
move through different options in providing more service on particular routes.
Council Member Tuttle thanked Mr. Tann and his team, we are always looking for good stories and
heroes during this and we obviously praise our police and fire as we should, but thinks some of the
unsung heroes are also going to be recognized when this is over as Transit and our transit operators for
making sure that people can get where they need to get at low or no cost and safely.
MOTION:
Council Member Johnson moved to approve Wichita Transit to provide free rides on fixed route services
on Saturdays, through June 27, 2020.
Motion carried 7 to 0.

X) COUNCIL MEMBER APPOINTMENTS AND COMMENTS
Council Member Johnson stated he is excited about the food program and MEI Foods is the company that
will be working and who is also seeking to open a grocery store in District I. Stated we all received a
letter from the Council of Elders that have been supported by the Wichita branch NAACP, the Greater
Wichita Ministerial League, Wichita Urban Professionals and WSU African American Faculty Staff
Association as well as all of the African American elected officials here in Wichita discussing the
need and concerns of the community as we reopen. Stated most importantly looking at access to testing
and has personally received a couple of emails regarding one of our clinics that was administering an
antibody test rather than the swab test and the swab test is most important right now to people who
actually have symptoms. Stated he reported that over to the county but wants to make a point that list did
come in, that was one of the main concerns, which is access to testing and making sure the testing was
free and access to personal protective equipment because masks are necessary when we go out in public,
face shields and a need for transparent accurate data. Stated the County Dashboard is great but it doesn't
have data broken down by zip code and that is one point they wanted to make as well as support for small
businesses as they open up in a responsible matter and making sure they have access to PPE and
provisions for parents because you will have children that would normally be in school but now the
schools are closed and they are going to go back to work. Stated he wanted to acknowledge the reception
of that and that it went out to all governmental bodies.
Council Member Tuttle reminded everyone in the community that May is National Bike Month. Stated it
is something we have celebrated annually for quite a few years here in our community and there is a
group of concerned citizens and community partners who had been working on this for several months.
Stated there have been so many changes during this whole pandemic but one of the positive changes is the
amount of people now walking and bicycling, which has been great.
1.) BOARD APPOINTMENTS.
Mayor Whipple stated he has some appointments to make. Stated he would like to appoint a Small
Business Advisory Council to the Mayor for a term of three months made up of 10 members within our
community who are small business owners. Stated he is appointing the following people: Kara Kauffman,
Joey Kate Laurie, Janelle Robertson, Eddie Sandoval, Emily Shonka, Amber Beck, Nathan Jackel, Fe
Vorderlandwehr, Pam Spillman-Edmondson, and Felicia Despain.
Vice Mayor Claycomb asked the Mayor what is the purpose of this committee and is this a new
committee.
Mayor Whipple stated yes and the purpose is during the COVID-19 crisis, the reopening of our economy
it is more important than ever for the needs of small businesses to have direct access to the Council when
it comes to the creation of policy. Stated although this Council would have been create even before the
COVID-19 crisis just as a way of community outreach and engagement, this is particularly targeted with
these owners towards industries that have been deeply affected with the crisis and the three month term is
in place in hopes that at every quarter we will have new people serving with the continuation of fresh
ideas.
Council Member Tuttle stated it is a great idea but has one recommendation if you would be willing to
accept potential small businesses from each of our districts so that way we can make sure we are getting a
wide scope of representatives from all areas and fractions of our community.
Page 12
CITY COUNCIL PROCEEDINGS
MAY 5, 2020
Mayor Whipple stated he hopes in the next three months at the next Council Meeting we can have some
nominations for each district but these particular nominations are generated from business leaders in the
community to particularly target those who are very much impacted by COVID-19. Stated he hopes that
we can have more district representation as we move forward.
Vice Mayor Claycomb stated in light of the letter we received from the Council of Elders, thinks some of
their concerns were for their small businesses also, so we may be able to wrap representation to it at some
point.
Council Member Johnson stated his recommendation would be to involve Wayne Bell with the Small
Business Association with the committee.
MOTION:
Mayor Whipple moved to accept the creation of the Small Business Advisory Council to the Mayor with
the 10 members mentioned as members of that committee.
