AND WHEN I MENTIONED THE AMENDED THIS WAS AMENDED IN COMMITTEE AND WE CAME OUT WITH UNANIMOUS SUPPORT. LET ME EXPLAIN A LITTLE BIT MORE ABOUT WHY WE AMENDED THIS SO THAT WE CAN ALL BE ON THE SAME PAGE WHEN WE APPROPRIATE MONEY IN THE IN JUNE JULY. THERE IS AN EXPECTATION THAT WE WILL BORROW MONEY. IN ORDER TO DO THAT BORROWING, WE HAVE TO COME BACK AND GET BONDS APPROVED. AND SO THEY BROUGHT THIS OVER AS A AS A BOND AMENDMENT OR A BOND ORDINANCE SO THAT WE COULD GET THE MONEY TO WE COULD BOND WHAT WE HAD SAID WE WOULD BOND. AT THE SAME TIME, THE REASON THERE'S AN AMENDMENT IS WE WERE LOOKING BACK AT SOME OF OUR PREVIOUS BONDS AND REALIZED THAT WE COULD GET, PERHAPS GET A BETTER RATE. AND SO THE GOAL IS TO REFINANCE SOME OF THOSE BONDS. AND SO THE AMENDMENT IS TO ADD THAT REFINANCING. AND SO WE'LL WE'LL FLOAT THOSE BONDS AND SEE IF WE CAN GET A BETTER RATE AND HOPEFULLY SAVE THE CITY SOME MONEY. SO THE AMENDED ORDINANCE IS WHAT WE HAVE BEFORE US.

READ IN FULL. SECOND. THAT IS PROPER FOR US. THIS CAME OUT OF THE LABOR AND ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT

[01:00:03]

COMMITTEE THAT WAS TEMPORARILY CHAIRED BY COUNCILMAN OWEN. AND SO I'M GOING TO TENDER THE FLOOR TO YOU, SIR. THANK YOU, PRESIDENT ATKINSON, I THINK SO. I STEPPED IN AND WAS THE CHAIR OF THIS COMMITTEE, AND WE HAD A VERY ROBUST CONVERSATION ABOUT THIS RESOLUTION. IT'S REALLY AN ADMINISTRATIVE ACTION TO MOVE THE PROPERTY SURPLUS, THE PROPERTY BASICALLY TO OFFICIALLY SURPLUS THE GOVERNMENT PROPERTY. THERE'S ALREADY BEEN A DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT SIGNED WITH DEVELOPMENT COMPANY FOR THE FISCAL COURT BUILDING ACROSS THE STREET. AND SO WE HAD A ROBUST CONVERSATION, AND IT WAS PASSED OUT OF COMMITTEE WITH SOME ROBUST CONVERSATION. COUNCILMAN, YOU'RE NEXT IN MY QUEUE AND YOU HAVE THE FLOOR, SIR. THANK YOU, MR. PRESIDENT, AND THANK YOU TO COUNCILMAN OWEN FOR THAT VERY VERBOSE SUMMARY, VERY DETAILED OF HOW THAT DEBATE WENT. BUT I DID WANT TO LET EVERYONE KNOW SOME OF THE SOME MEMBERS OF MY CAUCUS HAD EXPRESSED SOME CONCERNS. THE CONCERNS CAME AROUND TWO THINGS. ONE WAS THE ACTUAL DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT. AND ACTUALLY DURING THE COMMITTEE, IT WAS COUNCILMAN BATSON, SUPPORTED BY SOME OTHERS, THAT FOUND AN ISSUE WITH THE DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT, WHICH WAS AMENDED IN COMMITTEE. AND I THINK THAT HELPED IMPROVE THINGS. THE OTHER CONCERN THAT SEVERAL OF US HAD, I KNOW I HAD, WAS THAT THE DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT MENTIONED THE FOUR PROPERTIES THAT THE MAYOR INTENDS TO ULTIMATELY DEVELOP.

OKAY, SO IT MENTIONS THE FISCAL COURT BUILDING. IT MENTIONS THE GARAGE BEHIND THE FISCAL COURT BUILDING. IT MENTIONS THE SURFACE PARKING LOT ACROSS CONGRESS ALLEY. AND THEN IT MENTIONS THE OLD LMPD PROPERTY. AND OUR CONCERN WAS THAT THIS COULD MEAN THAT WE'RE VOTING ON SOMETHING HERE THAT'S MORE THAN JUST THE FISCAL COURT BUILDING. AND IN THE COMMITTEE HEARING, IT SORT OF SOUNDED LIKE THAT. BUT AFTER SPEAKING WITH THE ADMINISTRATION, INCLUDING JEFF O'BRIEN AND OTHERS, IT WAS CLEAR THAT WHAT WE ARE VOTING ON TONIGHT IS EXCLUSIVELY RELATED TO MOVING FORWARD WITH THE FISCAL COURT BUILDING ONLY. AND I, OF COURSE, WANTED THAT IN WRITING. SO I ASKED MR. O'BRIEN TO SEND ME AN EMAIL SUMMARIZING THAT I'M GOING TO READ IT ONTO THE RECORD HERE, BECAUSE HE PROVIDES SOME DETAIL AND CONTEXT, AND I HOPE IT HELPS OTHERS. I KNOW IT HELPED ME AND OTHER MEMBERS OF MY CAUCUS TO FEEL MORE COMFORTABLE IN VOTING YES ON THIS TONIGHT, WHERE IF, AS I READ THIS, WE'RE GOING TO BE VOTING ON THIS, ONCE THIS PROJECT IS DONE, THEN THE DEVELOPER HAS THE OPPORTUNITY TO RECOMMEND WHAT THEIR NEXT PHASE IS THAT IT WILL HAVE A SEPARATE VOTE ON WHETHER WE MOVE FORWARD ON THAT, AND IF WE DON'T LIKE THE PLAN, WE CAN REJECT IT. ET CETERA. RIGHT. OF COURSE, THE INTENTION IS TO GET ALL OF IT DONE, BUT IT'S BEING DONE IN PHASES. AND RIGHT NOW, TONIGHT, ALL WE'RE DEBATING IS WHETHER OR NOT THE SURPLUS, A BUILDING THAT WE'VE BEEN TALKING ABOUT DEMOLISHING FOR MANY YEARS, AND WE'VE BEEN TALKING ABOUT PUTTING MORE RESIDENTIAL OPPORTUNITIES DOWNTOWN FOR MANY YEARS. SO SORT OF ACCOMPLISHES A COUPLE GOALS WITH ONE SWING. SO HERE'S THE EMAIL I'M GOING TO BE QUOTING DIRECTLY UNTIL I WRAP UP. AND THEN I'LL REFER BACK TO ANYBODY ELSE WHO WANTS TO SPEAK. IT SAYS, QUOTE, AS A FOLLOW UP FROM THE COMMITTEE MEETING LAST WEEK. IN OUR CONVERSATION, HERE ARE SOME OF THE KEY ASPECTS OF THIS PROJECT ONE. THE SURPLUS RESOLUTION ONLY COVERS THE FISCAL COURT BUILDING AND DOES NOT TRANSFER OWNERSHIP. THIS RESOLUTION ONLY GIVES US THE ABILITY TO SELL THE BUILDING PROPERTY TO THE DEVELOPER. ONCE ALL OF THE OTHER CONDITIONS THE DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT ARE MET, WHICH INCLUDE CLOSING ON FINANCING AND SECURING CONSTRUCTION PERMITS. WHILE THE DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT COVERS ADDITIONAL PROPERTIES MARKET STREET, PARKING GARAGE, CITY HALL, PARKING LOT AND FORMER LMPD HEADQUARTERS SITE. THE SURPLUS RESOLUTION ONLY COVERS THE FISCAL COURT BUILDING.

THOSE PROPERTIES WILL NEED TO HAVE ADDITIONAL ACTIONS BEFORE METRO CAN TRANSFER THE PROPERTIES. THREE THE DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT IS SET UP AS A PHASED AGREEMENT. THERE ARE SPECIFIC DETAILS AND CONDITIONS RELATED TO THE FISCAL COURT BUILDING THE DEVELOPER MUST ACHIEVE BEFORE THE TRANSFER OCCURS. THE AGREEMENT CONTEMPLATES A SUBSEQUENT AMENDMENT TO DETAIL THE DEVELOPMENT FOR THE OTHER PROPERTIES. THE DEVELOPER HAS 30 DAYS FROM THE RECEIPT OF THE CERTIFICATE OF OCCUPANCY FOR THE FISCAL COURT BUILDING TO PROVIDE METRO A PLAN AND BEGIN NEGOTIATIONS ON PHASE TWO. LET ME PAUSE HERE FOR A SECOND. SO JUST TO SUMMARIZE WHAT THAT WAS SAYING, THAT IT'S 30 DAYS AFTER THEY HAVE FINISHED ALL THE WORK ON THE FISCAL COURT BUILDING AND THEY HAVE A CERTIFICATE OF OCCUPANCY. THAT'S HOW MUCH TIME WILL ELAPSE BEFORE WE EVEN SEE A PHASE TWO PLAN FOR ANY OTHER PROPERTIES, FOR BACK QUOTING, FOR IF AND WHEN A PLAN IS DEVELOPED FOR THE CITY HALL LOT, IT WILL REQUIRE THAT LIKE PARKING FACILITIES ARE PROVIDED FOR METRO COUNCIL MEMBERS. THAT PLAN WILL BE DISCUSSED WITH METRO COUNCIL FIVE PARK P A R C OWNS THE CITY HALL LOT AND THE MARKET STREET GARAGE. THE MARKET STREET GARAGE COULD BE SURPLUSED AND SOLD BY THE PARK BOARD. THE CITY HALL LOT, WHILE OWNED BY PARK, IS STILL BONDED AND HAS SIGNIFICANT DEBT 1.7 MILLION THAT WOULD NEED TO BE

[01:05:06]

ADDRESSED BEFORE THE LAND CAN BE SOLD. THERE IS ALSO A 20 YEAR LEASE THAT BENEFITS METRO AND RUNS UNTIL THE YEAR 2032. WHILE THE PARK BOARD CAN SURPLUS THE LAND, THERE WOULD NEED TO BE ARRANGEMENTS TO ACCOMMODATE THE LOST PARKING COVERED BY THE LEASE AND THE DEBT WOULD HAVE TO BE SETTLED. ANY FUTURE DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM WILL HAVE TO ACCOUNT FOR THE DEBT METRO COUNCIL WOULD NEED TO SURPLUS. THE FORMER LMPD HEADQUARTERS SITE, END QUOTE.

SO JUST SAYING THAT RELATED TO THE ACTUAL PARKING DECK. JUST TO BE CLEAR, PARK DOES HAVE THAT FULL AUTHORITY BECAUSE THE DEBT FREE DECK THAT PARK OWNS, THEY'RE QUASI GOVERNMENT AGENCY WITH THEIR OWN BOARD. WE WILL BE APPROACHED ABOUT THE PARKING LOT, NOT ONLY FOR THE ACCOMMODATIONS, BUT ALSO BECAUSE IT HAS TO DO WITH RETIRING AND OUTSTANDING AGREEMENT PLUS DEBT. SO WE WILL HAVE TO VOTE ON SOMETHING TO MOVE FORWARD WITH THE SURFACE PARKING. AND THEN LMPD HEADQUARTERS WILL BE ITS OWN. THAT PROPERTY WILL BE ITS OWN VOTE. SO BECAUSE OF ALL OF THAT, IT MADE ME FEEL MUCH MORE COMFORTABLE THAT WE'RE DOING THIS ONE STEP AT A TIME. WE'VE TALKED ABOUT SURPLUS, THIS BUILDING FOR A LONG TIME AND DEVELOPING IT INTO SOMETHING USEFUL, AND WE HAVE SOMETHING THERE IN FRONT OF US. SO I'M GOING TO BE A YES VOTE AND ENCOURAGE OTHERS TO JOIN US IN VOTING YES FOR THIS. THANK YOU, MR. PRESIDENT. COUNCILOR WINKLER, YOUR NEXT TO MY Q YOU HAD THE FLOOR. WHAT'S THAT? DID YOU DID YOU PULL HIM OFF MY CUE? COUNCILMAN HERNDON, YOU'RE NEXT TO MY CUE. OKAY. THANK YOU. AS THE COUNCILMAN WHO REPRESENTS DOWNTOWN AND THIS THIS BUILDING, WE ALL KNOW IT. WELL, IT HAS IF YOU IT'S HAD SCAFFOLDING ON THE TWO PUBLIC FACING SIDES FOR MANY, MANY YEARS BECAUSE PIECES HAVE BEEN FALLING OFF. IT'S IN DREADFUL CONDITION. BUT THIS DEVELOPER IS WILLING TO GO TO THE TIME AND TROUBLE TO REHAB THIS BUILDING. THEY HAVE A LONG HISTORY. THE COMPANY HAS A LONG HISTORY IN THIS COMMUNITY THEY BROUGHT. THEY WERE THE ONES THAT BROUGHT SLUGGER BACK FROM INDIANA TO TO DOWNTOWN LOUISVILLE. THEY SAVED AND REHABILITATED THE HENRY CLAY BUILDING, AND THEY REHABILITATED. THEY REHABBED THE GLASSWORKS BUILDING IN ADDITION TO NEW CONSTRUCTION. SO THEY HAVE A LONG HISTORY OF DOING, DOING RIGHT BY THIS COMMUNITY. AND I HOPE THAT THIS IS ONE OF MANY, MANY SIMILAR PROJECTS THAT WE HAVE IN DOWNTOWN LOUISVILLE. AND I URGE YOUR SUPPORT. COUNCILMAN WINKLER, THANK YOU. AS SOMEBODY WHO HAS AT TIMES BEEN CRITICAL OF POLICIES THAT COME OUT OF FRANKFORT, I THINK IT'S WORTH CALLING OUT THAT THIS PROJECT IS ONLY POSSIBLE BECAUSE OF WORK THAT CAME OUT OF FRANKFORT.

SO I THINK IT'S IT'S IMPORTANT TO GIVE CREDIT WHERE CREDIT IS DUE. I THINK FOLKS WATCHING NEED TO UNDERSTAND WHY WE'RE SURFACING THIS PROPERTY IS COUNCILMAN KRAMER WILL ATTEST, YOU KNOW, WE HAVE ALLOCATED BETWEEN 2 AND $3 MILLION OVER THE PAST SEVERAL YEARS TO TEAR THIS BUILDING DOWN. AND FOR, YOU KNOW, THE SEVEN YEARS THAT I'VE BEEN ON COUNCIL, THIS HAS BEEN A PROJECT THAT COUNCIL HAS ADVOCATED THAT NEEDS TO BE TORN DOWN BECAUSE WE WERE JUST INCURRING SIGNIFICANT DEFERRED MAINTENANCE EXPENSE ON IT. AND WE WE ALLOCATED, LIKE I SAID, MULTI-MILLION DOLLARS TO TEAR IT DOWN BECAUSE OF CHANGES IN STATE HISTORIC TAX CREDIT LAW.

IT MADE THE PROPERTY ATTRACTIVE TO A DEVELOPER. AND SO IT'S IT'S A WIN FOR THE COMMUNITY.

IT'S A WIN FOR THE CITY RATHER THAN SPENDING MANY MILLIONS OF DOLLARS TEARING IT DOWN, HAVING A VACANT LOT DOWNTOWN, WE'VE GOT A DEVELOPER THAT'S GOING TO REPURPOSE IT, GOING TO BUILD RESIDENTIAL UNITS, CREATE URBAN DENSITY. ALL OF THE THINGS THAT I THINK, YOU KNOW, MANY OF US ADVOCATE FOR AND WANT AND IS A WIN WIN. SO I'M EXCITED TO TO SEE THIS PROJECT MOVE FORWARD AND EXCITED TO HAVE US NOT SPEND THE MONEY DEMOLISHING THE BUILDING. SO THANK YOU, PRESIDENT ACKERSON. COUNCILMAN OWEN, THANK YOU. PRESIDENT. I WANTED TO THANK COUNCILMAN PIACENTINI FOR FILLING IN THE GAPS. IT WAS A WONDERFUL YOU WENT THROUGH IT VERY ELOQUENTLY AND I APPRECIATE THAT. I KNEW YOU WOULD, WHICH IS WHY I JUST TEED IT UP WITH VERY SHORT. NO, I'M EXCITED ABOUT THE PROJECT. YOU GUYS HAVE HEARD ME GO ON AND ON ABOUT REDEVELOPMENT DOWNTOWN, HOUSING DOWNTOWN. HOW EXCITING. I THINK IT IS. YES, WE'VE GOT CHALLENGES WITH DOWNTOWN LOUISVILLE, BUT I THINK WE'VE GOT ALSO A HUGE OPPORTUNITY TO CREATE A VIBRANT, YOU KNOW, EXCITING, DYNAMIC RESIDENTIAL AND COMMERCIAL AND ENTERTAINMENT AND CULTURAL NEIGHBORHOOD DOWNTOWN. AND THIS IS ONE OF MANY. SO I KNOW THAT THE THAT THEY'RE EXCITED, THE DEVELOPERS ARE EXCITED ABOUT GETTING CLOSED AND GETTING STARTED VERY SOON, WHICH. SO IT'LL BE REALLY FUN TO WATCH THAT PROJECT COME TO BE IN SHORT ORDER. AND I HOPE IT'S THE FIRST OF MANY. THANK YOU, COUNCILMAN CRAMER. THANK YOU, MR. PRESIDENT. I WANT TO SHARE THAT I AM CAUTIOUSLY EXCITED. AS COUNCILMAN WINKLER POINTED OUT, I'VE BEEN INVOLVED FOR A NUMBER OF YEARS NOW LOOKING AT THAT BUILDING AND REALIZING THE PROBLEMS THAT WE HAVE HAD WITH IT. THIS IS NOT THE FIRST GROUP WHO HAS COME THROUGH WITH AN WITH AN IDEA ABOUT HOW TO HOW TO RENOVATE THAT BUILDING, ONLY TO GET INTO THE DETAILS AND DECIDE THAT IT JUST WASN'T POSSIBLE. AND SO IT'S NOT THAT I NECESSARILY HATE BUILDINGS AND WANT TO TEAR THEM DOWN,

[01:10:03]

IT'S THAT THIS PARTICULAR BUILDING HAS BEEN CREATING FOR US SOME AMOUNT OF OF DIFFICULTY FOR A NUMBER OF YEARS NOW. GIVEN THAT THE WAYLAND GROUP HAS HAS COME FORWARD, HAS AN RFP, THEY, UNLIKE ANYONE ELSE WHO HAS COME BEFORE US WITH AN IDEA FOR THIS BUILDING, THEY HAVE ACTUALLY SECURED THE FUNDING TO DO EVERYTHING THAT THEY NEED TO DO. THAT'S REALLY IMPRESSIVE. AGAIN, TO COUNCILWOMAN WINKLER'S POINT, THE STATE HAS HAS PUT FORWARD SOME ASSISTANCE. I THINK THERE'S SOME FEDERAL GRANT MONEY IN THERE. THERE'S SOME PRESERVATION TAXES, I MEAN, CREDITS, THEY HAVE DONE A GREAT JOB OF COBBLING TOGETHER ALL KINDS OF DIFFERENT OPPORTUNITIES TO TURN THIS INTO HOUSING. AND SO THEY'VE GOTTEN FURTHER THAN ANYBODY ELSE EVER HAS. SO AGAIN, I'M CAUTIOUSLY OPTIMISTIC. I'M LOOKING FORWARD TO THEM BUILDING IT. I WILL HAVE TO CALL FORMER BUDGET CHAIR BILL HOLDER AND INVITE HIM DOWN TO MY OFFICE SO WE CAN STAND ON THE BALCONY AND LOOK ACROSS THE STREET AS THEY MAKE IMPROVEMENTS, BECAUSE I'D INVITED THEM TO COME AND STAND THERE WHILE THEY TORE IT DOWN, SO I'M SURE HE WILL BE HAPPY TO COME AND WATCH AS THEY MAKE THE IMPROVEMENTS. SO I'M ASKING ALL MY COLLEAGUES TONIGHT, PLEASE VOTE YES ON THIS. IT IS ABSOLUTELY A STEP IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION. IF WE CAN GET THIS OFF OF OUR BOOKS AND INTO THE HANDS OF SOMEONE WHO CAN ACTUALLY TURN IT INTO SOMETHING USEFUL, THAT WILL DRIVE FUTURE TAX DOLLARS, I'M ALL FOR IT. SO I DON'T WANT ANYBODY TO MISUNDERSTAND ANY CHARACTERIZATIONS THAT I WANT TO TEAR IT DOWN. I'D LOVE TO SEE IT BE HOUSING. I'M CAUTIOUSLY OPTIMISTIC THAT THEY ACTUALLY HAVE A PROGRAM THAT WILL WORK, AND I'M GIVING THEM THE BENEFIT OF EVERY DOUBT THAT I HAVE. COUNCILMAN SEAN, THANK YOU, MR. PRESIDENT. AND I WANT TO GIVE THANKS TO COUNCILMAN PIACENTINI FOR HELPING US ANSWER A LOT OF QUESTIONS THAT WE ASKED. AS I ASKED AND FELT LIKE I JUST CONTINUE TO ASK AND ASK AND ASK DURING THE COMMITTEE. AND I APPRECIATE THE THE TIRELESS EFFORT THAT HE'S PUT IN AND ASKING AND GETTING THE ANSWERS TO THOSE QUESTIONS.

WE AS A BODY ARE CONSTANTLY ASKING FOR MORE RESIDENTS AND MORE MORE DENSITY IN DOWNTOWN.

AND I THINK THIS IS A WONDERFUL OPPORTUNITY AND A STEP FORWARD IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION TO SEE WHAT THEY CAN DO WITH A WITH AN OFFICE BUILDING AND CONVERT THE PLUMBING AND ETC. TO MAKE IT HOUSING APARTMENTS IN DOWNTOWN WHERE WE ARE ASKING FOR PEOPLE TO COME IN. SO IN SUPPORT OF THIS AND LET'S GET THIS MOVING AND SEE WHAT KIND OF GREAT WORK CAN COME OUT OF IT. COUNCILMAN PERISH, RIGHT? I SAW YOU, COUNCILWOMAN PURVIS. THANK YOU, MR. PRESIDENT. I'VE LISTENED TO EVERYONE SPEAK IN SUPPORT OF THIS, SO THEREFORE I DON'T HAVE A PROBLEM SUPPORTING IT. BUT AT THIS TIME, I'D LIKE TO MAKE A MOTION TO CALL THE QUESTION. IS THERE A SECOND FOR CALLING THE QUESTION? SECOND MOTION FOR CALL. THE QUESTION HAS BEEN MADE. ALL THOSE IN FAVOR SAY AYE. AYE. ALL THOSE OPPOSED? NO. THE NOES HAVE IT, COUNCILWOMAN. PERISH. RIGHT. WELL THANK YOU.

I JUST WANT TO SAY I AGREE WITH EVERYTHING THAT'S BEEN SAID. I THINK THAT COUNCILMAN PIACENTINI WAS MISSING A POWERPOINT, BUT THIS WAS A GREAT PRESENTATION, AND I WANT TO BE ADDED AS A CO-SPONSOR FOR THE RECORD. THANK YOU. SEEING NO ONE ELSE IN MY QUEUE, WE HAVE THE ORDINANCE BEFORE US. WHAT'S THAT? OH, IT'S A RESOLUTION. SO WE CAN TAKE A VOICE VOTE. ALL THOSE IN FAVOR SAY AYE.
