COUNCILMAN HUDSON. I BELIEVE YOU HAVE A SPECIAL GUEST THIS EVENING.

THANK YOU, MR PRESIDENT. IN AUGUST OF THIS YEAR. CONCERNED CITIZEN SAW SOMETHING THAT WAS NOT QUITE RIGHT. AND DID THE RIGHT THING BY NOTIFYING LM P. D. THIS INITIATED A SERIES OF EVENTS THAT WOULD LAST FOR THE NEXT SEVERAL MONTHS. OF COURSE, OF COURSE, I'M TALKING ABOUT THE HOUSE ON APPLEGATE LANE. WHICH OF THAT SOUNDS LIKE A HORROR MOVIE. IT IS. IT WAS A REAL LIFE HORROR MOVIE. THE OWNER OF THAT HOUSE HAD BEEN STORING VOLATILE AND HAZARDOUS CHEMICALS AND MAKING HOMEMADE EXPLOSIVES FOR YEARS. THE HOUSE WAS DEEMED TO BE EXTREMELY UNSAFE. THE MAYOR DIRECTED METRO LOUISVILLE EMERGENCY SERVICES TO DEVELOP A MITIGATION PLAN TO MAKE THE SITE SAFE. JODI MEMON AND JESSICA WETHINGTON, WHO WE HAVE HERE TONIGHT. CHAMPION THESE EFFORTS FROM BEGINNING TO END THEY LITERALLY LIVED ON SITE AT THE COMMAND POST FOR WEEKS. SOME OF THE OTHER ABOVE AND BEYOND. EXTRA DUTIES AS ASSIGNED. YEAH, WE'RE THESE. A SEVERE STORM RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF THE EVENT BLEW OVER SEVERAL OLD GROWTH TREES, ONE OF WHICH LANDED ON AN L NPD CRUISER THAT WAS THERE TO WATCH THE HOUSE. BOURBON AND BEYOND AND LOUDER THAN LIFE.

STRETCHED THE RESOURCES OF THE ORGANIZATION TO THEIR LIMITS. AH! JODI AND JESSICA PUT TOGETHER A PLAN TO KNOCK ON EVERY SINGLE DOOR IN HALF MY RADIUS AROUND THAT HOUSE AND ONE EVENING AND EXECUTED IT. FLAWLESSLY. SO EVERYONE IN THIS ROOM KNOWS WHAT KNOCKING ON DOORS IS LIKE 1000 IN ABOUT FOUR HOURS IS PRETTY GOOD, UM, CONDUCTED MULTIPLE COMMUNITY INFORMATION MEETINGS. THEY THIS WAS A COOL ONE. THEY HAD TO INVENT A WAY TO COMMUNITY TO GET AUTOMATED COMMUNICATIONS TO PEOPLE THAT HAD ONLY LANDLINES. NO CELL PHONES, NO COMPUTERS.

THAT'S A TOUGH ONE. A COORDINATED WITH L NPD. LOCAL FIRE FBI 80 F KENTUCKY EP, A UNITED STATES, CPA AND SEVERAL OTHER AGENCIES. SEVERAL METHODS WERE EXPLORED TO MITIGATE THE DANGER. THE DANGER MOST NOTORIOUS WAS TO CONDUCT A CONTROLLED BURN. OF THE HOUSE AND ITS CONTENTS. THERE WERE TWO DRIVING PRINCIPLES THROUGHOUT THE OPERATION. SAFETY ABOVE ALL.

COMMUNICATION IN A TIMELY AND TRANSPARENT FASHION. ONE OF THE CONSEQUENCES OF TRANSPARENCY DURING A FLUID AND DYNAMIC SITUATION. IS THAT AS THE CIRCUMSTANCES CHANGED, THE

[00:30:05]

SAFETY WAS ALWAYS FIRST. WITH TIME REMOVED AS A CONSTRAINT, JODY AND JESSICA WERE ABLE TO ENLIST ADDITIONAL RESOURCES AND EXPERTISE TO REALLY PUSH THE TECHNOLOGY ENVELOPE AND DEVELOP A PLAN ALONG WITH THE U. S. A P A TO MECHANICALLY DISASSEMBLED THE HOUSE. THE ON SITE REPRESENTATIVE. FROM THE U. S. E P A SAID IT BEST. THIS THIS PROJECT LED BY JODI AND JESSICA.

WAS A CASE STUDY IN HOW FEDERAL, STATE AND LOCAL AGENCIES SHOULD AND CAN WORK TOGETHER. BECAUSE ME GREAT PLEASURE TO PRESENT THESE METRO COUNCIL PROCLAMATIONS TO YOU TONIGHT.

THE WORDING IS THE SAME ON BOTH THE NAMES CHANGE, SO I'M GOING TO READ JESSICA'S JESSICA WETHINGTON OF GLOBAL METRO EMERGENCY SERVICES. WHEREAS IN JULY 2023 THE LOUISVILLE METRO POLICE DEPARTMENT EXECUTED ILLEGAL SEARCH WARRANT. FOR PROPERTIES ON APPLEGATE LANE. I NEED TO PUT MY GLASSES ON. WHERE THEY FOUND EXPLOSIVES AND OTHER HAZARDOUS MATERIALS THAT POSED A REAL AND SIGNIFICANT RISK TO PUBLIC SAFETY. AND WHEREAS ONE OF THE HOUSES ON APPLEGATE LANE PRESENTED THE CITY OF LOUISVILLE WITH A CHALLENGE DESCRIBED BY EVERY SUBJECT MATTER EXPERT AS UNIQUE, EXTRAORDINARILY COMPLEX AND REQUIRING EQUALLY UNIQUE AND COMPLEX, INNOVATIVE SOLUTIONS.

AND WHEREAS LEVEL LIMIT LOUISVILLE METRO EMERGENCY SERVICES EXPERTLY COORDINATED THE EFFORTS OF MULTIPLE FEDERAL, STATE AND LOCAL AGENCIES AND WHEREAS LOUISVILLE METRO EMERGENCY SERVICES PROVIDED TRANSPARENCY AT EVERY STEP OF THE PROCESS BY FREQUENTLY AND CONSISTENTLY COMMUNICATING INFORMATION AT ALL LEVELS FROM MASS MEDIA RELEASES TO INDIVIDUAL FACE TO FACE CONVERSATIONS. AND WHEREAS LOCAL METRO EMERGENCY SERVICES CREATED A FLEXIBLE AND SUSTAINABLE PLAN OF ACTION AND EXECUTED THE PLAN FLAWLESSLY. THEREBY ELIMINATING THE THREAT. PUBLIC SAFETY AND WHEREAS. GLOBAL METRO EMERGENCY SERVICES WAS RECOGNIZED BY THE UNITED STATES ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY AS BEING THE PERFECT EXAMPLE OF HOW FEDERAL, STATE AND LOCAL AGENCIES CAN AND SHOULD WORK TOGETHER. SO BE IT HEREBY PROCLAIMED. THAT LOUISVILLE METRO COUNCIL RECOGNIZES JESSICA WETHINGTON FOR EXTRAORDINARY EXCELLENCE.

SUPERB LEADERSHIP, EFFECTIVE COMMUNICATION, FLAWLESS EXECUTION AND GOING ABOVE AND BEYOND. IN HER DEDICATION. TO SERVICE DURING THIS UNIQUE, CHALLENGING SITUATION. THANK YOU SO MUCH. WELL. I GUESS I'M IT. JESSICA DOESN'T WANT TO SPEAK. WELL THANK YOU. THANK YOU, COUNCILMAN HUDSON. I MEAN FROM THE SUPPORT THAT HE HAD FROM THE FROM DAY ONE, I MEAN, EVEN THE DONUTS THAT HE WOULD BRING WHILE WE WERE ON SITE MANY TIMES. IT WAS VERY HELPFUL. SO TO HAVE THAT SUPPORT AND THE COUNCILWOMAN FOWLER TOO, BECAUSE OF YOU KNOW, I HAD SOME MISCOMMUNICATION WITH YOU, AND WE WORKED THAT OUT, BUT SHE'S STILL DEALING WITH SOME OF THE REMNANTS OF WHAT'S GOING ON AS WELL. BUT YOU KNOW, I HEARD FLAWLESSLY TWICE, AND THAT'S THAT'S NOT IN THE DICTIONARY OF EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT. SO UM WE LIKE THAT, BUT NO, THIS IS TRULY A ONCE IN A LIFETIME. HOPEFULLY. AND ONCE IN A LIFETIME, UH, TYPE OF INCIDENT AND WE REALLY APPRECIATE YOUR CONTINUED SUPPORT, ESPECIALLY DURING BUDGET SEASON, BUT YOU KNOW, IT'S A IT'S TRUE. IT'S A TRUE PARTNERSHIP BETWEEN EMERGENCY SERVICES AND EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT AND ALL OF YOU BECAUSE YOU NEVER KNOW WHEN DISASTER'S GONNA STRIKE IN YOUR BACKYARD, SO WE APPRECIATE THE CONTINUED SUPPORT AND WE APPRECIATE THIS, UM YOU KNOW IT WASN'T US. THERE WAS A WHOLE LOT OF AGENCIES. AS COUNCILMAN, HUTCHEON SAID. THERE WAS A WHOLE LOT OF A LOT OF AGENCIES THAT HAD TO DEAL WITH SOMETHING THAT THEY NEVER DEALT WITH BEFORE ALL THE WAY GOING UP TO THE FEDERAL TO SOME OF THE FEDERAL AGENCY, SO THIS WAS ACTUALLY DEEMED AS ONE OF THE ONE OF THE TOP 10 THAT SOME OF THE EXPERTS I'VE EVER HAD HAVE SEEN. AND THIS WAS THE WORST ONE THAT THEY DESCRIBED. SO YOU KNOW, LIKE YOU SAID, IT IS A IT IS BECOMING A CASE STUDY. WE'VE BEEN ASKED TO SPEAK ABOUT IT, UM BUT YOU KNOW IT IS. IT WAS A ONCE IN A LIFETIME. HOPEFULLY IT ONCE IN A LIFETIME THING, BUT WE REALLY APPRECIATE THIS. UM AND, UH AND TO ALL THE HELP THAT THE MAYOR'S OFFICE THE MAYOR GREENBERG HIMSELF DEPUTY MAYOR DAVID JAMES, WHO'S WITH US TODAY, AS WELL, THE SUPPORT THAT THEY DID BECAUSE, YOU KNOW, GOING TO TELL SOMEBODY. HEY WE NEED TO BURN THIS HOUSE IN THE MIDDLE OF 3100 PEOPLE. IT DOESN'T GO VERY POPULAR. WE WERE VERY GLAD THAT WE DIDN'T HAVE TO DO THAT. WE WERE ABLE TO DEVELOP ANOTHER

[Addresses to the Council]

FROM BEING PUT OUT OF PLACES HAVING TO BREAK INTO HOUSES, SLEEPING, NO SIDEWALKS, CHURCH FORCES AND HOSPITALS AND JAILS BECAUSE OF TRESPASSING ON CITY PROPERTIES. SO EVENTUALLY I GOT TIRED OF THE REVOLVING SITUATIONAL HOMELESSNESS CRISIS AND THE SUBSTANCE ABUSE THAT LED ME TO INQUIRE ABOUT HOUSING THROUGH THE CLOUD PROJECT. I'VE GOT A CASE MANAGER THROUGH THE COALITION FOR THE HOMELESS AND FAMILY HEALTH CENTERS. I HAVE TO STAY ON THE STREETS TO SHOW I WAS CHRONICALLY HOMELESS. I TOOK THE COMMON ASSESSMENT, BUT I HAD TO WAIT A FEW MONTHS TO GET PROCESSED AND WAS ONE OF THE FIRST CLASS TO BE HOUSE. I HAVEN'T HELD NOW FOR OVER NINE YEARS. AND I AM SO THANKFUL. MY CASE MANAGERS HAVE BEEN WITH ME EVERY STEP OF THE WAY AND THEY ENSURE ME NOT ONLY AFFORDABLE HOUSING, BUT A SENSE OF STABILITY, SELF MOTIVATION AND A SENSE OF HOME AND MENTAL STABILITY THROUGH THE GIVEN AFFORDABLE HOUSING PROGRAMS. SO WITH THAT BEING SAID PROVIDING HOUSING IS A PROVEN SOLUTION. TO HOMELESSNESS IN OUR CITY. IT'S A HUMANE RIGHT IN MY OPINION. THE DATA FOR OUR CITY SHOWS THEIR OWN HOUSE. PEOPLE WOULD RATHER SLEEP IN APARTMENT OR SOME FORM OF AFFORDABLE HOUSING VERSUS BEING ON THE STREET OR IN ASIA IN THE SHELTER. THE CURRENT CASE IS THAT WE JUST DO NOT HAVE ENOUGH AFFORDABLE RENTAL HOUSING FOR OUR POOREST AND MOST VULNERABLE CITIZENS. LOUISVILLE HAS SOME OF THE FASTEST GROWING RATES IN THE COUNTRY EVERY TIME OUR MEDIAN RENT INCREASES $100 WE SEE A 9% INCREASE IN OUR HOMELESS RATE. MOST SHELTERS ARE OVER, FLOODED AND CROWDED WITH LIMITED SPACE ALMOST EVERY NIGHT . HUNDREDS OF LOUIS BILLIONS HAVE NO OTHER CHOICE BUT TO SLEEP OUTDOORS. AND WE AS A THRIVING CITY MUST FIX THIS CRISIS. THROUGH THE EFFORTS OF OUR CITY IS MAKING TREMENDOUS PROGRESS. METRO COUNCIL HAS A TRACK RECORD OF SUPPORTING HOUSING FOR LOW INCOME FOLKS.

YOU HAVE FUNDED THE TRUST FUND AND PASSED THE ANTI DISPLACEMENT ORDINANCE, BUT WE NEED YOU TO KEEP WORKING TO ADDRESS THIS ISSUE. STILL MORE CAN BE DONE WITH FUNDING MORE AFFORDABLE, RENTING HOUSING AND MENTAL HEALTH AND SUBSTANCE ABUSE RESOURCES FOR OUR OWN HOUSE AND MOST VULNERABLE CITIZENS, SO LET'S WORK TOGETHER TO MEET OUR COMMON GOAL, ENDING THE HOMELESSNESS CRISIS IN THE CITY IN THE METRO CITY OF LOUIS. THANK YOU, MR MORRIS. YOU. THANK YOU, DAVE HANSEN. DAVE HANSEN. MR PRESIDENT THAT CONCLUDES THE ADDRESS OF THE COUNCIL. THANK

[01:10:01]

CONCLUSIONS OF LAW. THAT I FILED WITH THE ETHICS COMMISSION AND MY FILINGS WITH THE CIRCUIT COURT. WHAT YOU WILL SEE IS THAT THE CHARGING DOCUMENT CONTINUES TO IGNORE UNDISPUTED FACTS ON THE RECORD TO BUILD A PARTISAN NARRATIVE. I DO WANT TO BRIEFLY ADDRESS ANOTHER LAYER. IN THIS ONGOING PARTISAN UNPRECEDENTED AND INCREASINGLY LEGALLY BANKRUPT PROCESS. FIRST IS THE COMPLETELY PARTISAN CHARGING COMMITTEE. A FIRST IN METRO COUNCIL HISTORY. SECOND IS THE HIRING OF THE COMPLAINANT'S ATTORNEY TO REPRESENT THE CHARGING COMMISSION INSTEAD OF AN INDEPENDENT ATTORNEY. AGAIN THIS IS THE FIRST TIME THIS HAS THIS HAS HAPPENED IN METRO COUNCIL HISTORY. AND FINALLY IN THIS CHARGING DOCUMENTS. WE SEE AN AGREE GIS AND UNCONSTITUTIONAL EDITION OF CRIMINAL CHARGES INSTEAD OF ONLY STICKING TO THE ETHICS ALLEGATIONS. THESE ADDITIONS ARE COMPLETELY BEYOND THE LEGAL PURVIEW OF THIS COMMITTEE OR THIS COUNCIL AND EVEN BRINGING THEM IN THIS PROCESS WOULD DEPRIVE ME OF MULTIPLE CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHTS. ONCE AGAIN WE SEE THAT THIS IS A PARTISAN PROCESS VOID OF ANY CONSIDERATION OF LEGAL PROCESS AND I WILL NOT STAND FOR IT. I HAVE NO PROBLEM DEFENDING MYSELF AGAINST ALLEGED VIOLATIONS OF THE ETHICS COUNT. I WILL NOT STAND FOR THIS ILLEGAL AND UNPRECEDENTED ACTION OF CRIMINAL CHARGES ADDITION OF CRIMINAL CHARGES, AND I THINK THIS ONLY CONTINUES TO PROVE HOW BIASED AND LEGALLY BANKRUPT THE CHARGING COMMITTEE IS. THANK YOU, MR PRESIDENT. THANK YOU, COUNCILOR ARGENTINA. THE NEXT ITEM OF BUSINESS IS NEW BUSINESS AS YOU LEAVE THE CHAMBERS, PLEASE DO SO QUIETLY. SO THE CLERK MAY READ NEW BUSINESS. I WOULD ASK THOSE COUNCIL MEMBERS THAT WISH TO MAKE ANNOUNCEMENTS. PLEASE REMAIN IN THE CHAMBERS AND REQUEST TO SPEAK ON YOUR SYSTEM UNDER ANNOUNCEMENTS. NEW BUSINESS COMPRISES ITEMS 57 THROUGH 78 WITH THE CLERK. PLEASE READ THOSE ITEMS IN THEIR ASSIGNMENTS TO A COMMITTEE. THE
