GILBRIDE: Prior to tonight's 21 Council meeting, Council held an executive 22 meeting dealing with personnel and litigation 23 issues. 24 MR. MCANDREW: I make a motion for 25 reconsideration of File of the Council No. 84  4 1 of 2025. 2 DR. ROTHCHILD: Second. 3 MR. SMURL: There's a motion and a 4 second on the floor to reconsider placing 5 File of the Council No. 84, 2025 on the agenda. 6 This ordinance failed to move from Sixth to 7 Seventh Order last week and it will be placed 8 in Sixth order. On the question? All those in 9 favor signify by saying aye. 10 MR. KING: Aye. 11 MR. SCHUSTER: Aye. 12 DR. ROTHCHILD: Aye. 13 MR. MCANDREW: Aye. 14 MR. SMURL: Aye. Opposed? The ayes 15 have it and so moved. There will be a motion 16 this evening to suspend the rules and move File 17 of the Council No. 84, 2025 from Sixth to 18 Seventh Order for final vote. Anyone who would 19 like to speak on this piece of legislation may 20 do so in Fourth Order during Citizens 21 Participation. Dispense with the reading of 22 the minutes. 23 MR. VOLDENBERG: THIRD ORDER. 24 3-A. SINGLE TAX OFFICE CITY FUNDS 25 DISTRIBUTED COMPARISON REPORT FOR YEAR-TO-DATE  5 1 JULY 11, 2025 AND YEAR-TO-YEAR COMPARISON 2 REPORT FOR JULY 10, 2024 THROUGH JULY 11, 2025. 3 MR. SMURL: Are there any comments 4 on any of the Third Order items? If not, 5 received and filed. Do any Council members 6 have any announcements at this time? 7 MR. MCANDREW: I just want to touch 8 base during the moment of silence you 9 referenced Paul Wedlock. And I would just like 10 to say a few words. So back in August of 2009, 11 a native Westsider, a neighbor of mine, Paul 12 Wedlock was awarded the Silver Star Award for 13 gallantry in action -- for his actions in South 14 Vietnam in 1969. 15 When under fire in open terrain and 16 with complete disregard for his own safety, 17 rushed to the aid of -- a severely wounded 18 officer with another soldier. He pulled the 19 wounded officer from a crater and dragged him 20 on a poncho to a medical evac helicopter. So 21 he's a great guy and he's going to be sorely 22 missed. 23 And also starting this Thursday will 24 be St. Ann's Solemn Novena. It happens every 25 year. It's a great event. And it's always  6 1 nice to see people attend it if you can. And 2 that is all I have. Thanks. 3 MR. SMURL: Thank you, Mr. McAndrew. 4 Anyone else? 5 MR. SCHUSTER: I have one other. I 6 would like to wish Sam Cherra from Tripp Park a 7 happy 101st birthday today. It's his 101st 8 birthday today, so happy birthday, Sam. 9 MR. SMURL: Thank you, Mr. Schuster. 10 Anyone else? 11 MR. VOLDENBERG: FOURTH ORDER. 12 CITIZEN PARTICIPATION. 13 MR. SMURL: First, Joan Hodowanitz. 14 MS. HODOWANITZ: Joan Hodowanitz, 15 Scranton. I wish you had also mentioned when 16 you are remembering a moment of silence, John 17 Wilding who died 10 years ago last Saturday, 18 July 12th serving the city. He gave his life 19 to protect the citizens of Scranton and we 20 should never forget. 21 Okay, I don't know what to say about 22 tonight. I have lived downtown since March 23 24th, 1999, first in the Forum and then in 24 Samter's Lofts. And in all of those years, 25 there's never been anyone reaching out to the  7 1 residents downtown to ask their opinion or 2 concerns with parking. 3 Okay, and I'm not quite sure how 4 aggressively anybody's reached out to the 5 downtown businesses or any of the other 6 stakeholders, you know, that you should all be 7 talking to. I no longer drive, so I don't have 8 a skin in this particular game. But I do care 9 about the downtown growth and the quality of 10 life downtown, so it matters to me. 11 As I said last week, if ever we had 12 a need for a town hall meeting in which the 13 general public could ask questions directly, 14 this is one of those times. And I know you're 15 probably going to move on this legislation 16 tonight. 17 I got confused when Mr. McAndrew 18 was, you know, bringing back to the table -- I 19 couldn't find out where in this thing because 20 you all mumble up there. And I would have, you 21 know, liked to have seen in the backup some of 22 this. 23 And I would love to see these slides 24 in third order next week because we in the 25 peanut gallery can't really read those slides  8 1 on the wall. 2 And, you know, we all have a stake 3 in this. I'm still not convinced that this 4 gang has their crap together. I would like to 5 see hard data. If they have talked to the 6 businesses and they have talked to the 7 residents, I would like to see that data 8 because I don't think it's happened. 9 And I don't think there was any real 10 intent to talk to these people as evidenced by 11 the people coming last week voicing their 12 concerns. This is no way to run a railroad and 13 you should all know better. 14 I understand, you know, that the 15 bondholders are putting pressure on the city 16 and everybody is running down the street with 17 their hair on fire. 18 But it's this and, you know, it's 19 other issues that come up. And it's just that, 20 you know, I mean, it's almost like dealing in 21 the back room in a smoke filled room, you know, 22 kind of thing and, you know, patting us 23 taxpayers on the head and don't worry about it 24 we'll take care of it. 25 That's got to stop. We need far  9 1 more transparency and foreclosure. And, you 2 know, if somebody's political future is going 3 to be put at risk, so be it. But, you know, 4 I'm not hurt financially by which -- whatever 5 happens here's tonight, but other people will 6 be. 7 And, you know, ask the students why 8 they are not parking in the garages. I parked 9 in the garages for several years, once in the 10 Forum and once in the Linden Street for various 11 years. My car was vandalized twice. There is 12 no real security parking in the parking 13 garages. The only thing it protects you is 14 from the weather, and that's it. 15 So if you want people to be paying 16 to park in the garages, you know, ask them why 17 they don't park there. You know, do I want to 18 park in the Linden Street garage and then walk 19 to the Forum at, you know, 9 or 10:00 at night 20 or even later at midnight when I was working 21 Moses Taylor, you better believe I didn't want 22 to do it. 23 But I did it until I got rid of my 24 car and then I took a cab home. But it seems 25 like, you know, one more time you're going to  10 1 be making decisions that affect the taxpayers 2 and the residents in the downtown and the city 3 as a whole without talking to the right people 4 giving them the courtesy of, you know, you pay 5 hard tax dollars, you have a right to hear your 6 voice heard. 7 And that's not happening. And I'm 8 sure there will be another crisis and another 9 topic and it be the same darn thing. That's 10 why God invented the town hall. So listen to 11 your constituents. Thank you. 12 MR. SMURL: Thank you, Joan. Mr. 13 Voldenberg -- applause -- please. Mr. 14 Voldenberg, will you ask Attorney Jessica for 15 the presentation and put it into Third Order 16 next week? 17 MR. VOLDENBERG: I'll do that, sir. 18 MR. SMURL: Thank you. Les 19 Spindler. 20 MR. SPINDLER: Good evening, 21 Council, Les Spindler, city resident and 22 homeowner, taxpayer. Well, Joan beat me to the 23 punch. I'm wearing this shirt tonight in 24 memory of John Wilding. I knew Saturday was 10 25 years since his tragic passing.  11 1 And the back of this shirt says 2 never forgotten. I know myself, I'll never 3 forget. And next thing, I don't know what more 4 to say. Joan covered everything. I think her 5 presentation was terrific. 6 And like she said, the residents who 7 live downtown and the business people, they 8 should have been consulted about this. The 9 city went about this all the wrong way. And I 10 don't know what the solution is, but it could 11 have been done much better. 12 Next thing, my favorite subject, 13 pave cuts in the city. Well, finally today I 14 saw a little bit of progress on the pave cut on 15 my block that's been sinking every week. At 16 least today I noticed a white line drawn around 17 the pave cut. So at least that's some kind of 18 progress. 19 That's telling me eventually maybe 20 they are going to try to fix it. God knows 21 when that will be. But at least that was a 22 little bit of progress. Let's see how long 23 that takes to fix it. And pave cuts, these 24 pave cut inspectors whoever they are, they are 25 not doing their job.  12 1 And they're just -- why are we -- 2 why is the city paying them? We're paying an 3 outside company to inspect pave cuts and they 4 are not doing their job. I've complained about 5 the one on my block for I don't know how many 6 weeks now and nothing is done. 7 Has Council looked into this at all? 8 Crickets. That's what we get every week. 9 MR. MCANDREW: We ask almost every 10 week, Les, honestly. If you're here you notice 11 that. We're still waiting for all them answers 12 from administration. I know it's frustrating. 13 It's just as frustrating for us, honest to God. 14 MR. SPINDLER: We hire people to do 15 a job and they are not doing it. Maybe we 16 should look for somebody else to do the job. 17 It's ridiculous. The roads downtown are 18 terrible. The whole city is terrible. I've 19 complained for years that these utilities are 20 killing our streets and nothing is done. 21 We let them get away with murder. 22 It's just beyond belief that this can happen. 23 Lastly, it's been a little over three weeks now 24 that hole opened up on Dorothy Street. 25 Nothing's been done. Has Council contacted  13 1 anybody about that? 2 MR. SMURL: We have. 3 MR. SPINDLER: Who did you contact? 4 MR. SMURL: Scranton 311, is Isaiah 5 is the gentleman that takes care of that stuff. 6 MR. SPINDLER: It's the water -- 7 it's right in the middle of a pave cut that the 8 water company did. So I think the water 9 company should get contacted and tell them to 10 fix the darn thing. It keeps getting worse and 11 worse. 12 It's just unbelievable what things 13 are let go in this city. I don't know. 14 Changes have to be made. That's all I have. 15 Thank you. 16 MR. SMURL: Thank you. Angela 17 Ramone. 18 MS. RAMONE: It's good to see you 19 all again. I was a bit disappointed that I 20 wasn't able to make it in for the full meeting 21 earlier. However, I would like to say this 22 much when it comes to parking downtown. It's 23 probably an unpopular opinion. 24 But I do hope and believe that free 25 and abundant parking downtown rather than  14 1 enabling the growth of business and opportunity 2 in our city has been strangling the development 3 of our businesses, of our homes, and multiple 4 opportunities across our city. 5 When we look at the actual cost of 6 having people drive cars into downtown, the 7 cost on our roads, the cost -- the cost 8 directly with the maintenance, the cost of 9 opportunity that we're missing out on when 10 we're using land that is the most valuable, 11 valuable land in our city to park cars rather 12 than have businesses built and homes built, the 13 city misses out on tons of revenue, tons of 14 opportunity and so do the residents and 15 visitors to our city. 16 I think that often times people can 17 miss out on the opportunities that we have when 18 you only really -- really consider cars as our 19 means of getting people around when we have 20 many, many other options that we would enable 21 that we could choose to enable as a city 22 because cars don't spend money, people do. 23 What we actually want is for there 24 to be more people downtown. And if we're 25 trying to achieve that goal, then focusing on  15 1 having parking be as abundant and cheap as 2 possible is not something that's going to 3 actually help us. And it is, in fact, going to 4 hold us back. 5 And in that case I would say like 6 it's important to consider that when we decide 7 whether or not we're going to enforce parking 8 on the weekends, right, there's tons of 9 negative externalities that come with free 10 parking on the weekends. 11 That's when people go out to bars. 12 That's when they're drinking. And when we make 13 driving to those places the easiest option, 14 forget the wear and tear on the roads, forget 15 the inconvenience of road space being taken up 16 by cars that are parked, we're incentivizing 17 people to do things like drive out to bars and 18 get drunk and drive themselves home. 19 Right, there -- and there's tons of 20 other examples for the ways we negatively 21 impact ourselves when you choose policies that 22 prioritize making space for cars over anything 23 else. 24 And when we look at the actual cost 25 to the city of how people get around, the  16 1 single most expensive way that people can 2 travel across our city is in our personal 3 vehicle. 4 Right, we're looking at personal 5 vehicles like cars and trucks. Then we're 6 looking at ride share as the next less 7 expensive. And there's public transit and 8 buses or trains or metros. 9 And there's biking and walking are 10 the cheapest by far. And when we create 11 incentives for people to move up that scale 12 when they don't need to, when those trips 13 aren't necessary for -- to be made in a car, 14 but we incentivize people to do that anyways, 15 we're wasting our own money. 16 We're wasting our own time. And 17 we're increasing the burden on the city and the 18 danger of our resident -- towards our residents 19 when we want people downtown. We want people 20 walking out and about. And we enable -- and we 21 choose policies that enable our streets to be 22 choked by car traffic. 23 So I would like to say to kind of 24 wrap this up a little bit that I think it's 25 ultimately a good decision for the city to  17 1 charge money for parking. I think it's a good 2 decision for the city to consider alternative 3 uses for our land downtown than parking that 4 could move more people with the same amount of 5 space into our downtown areas. 6 And I think it's -- again, to 7 reiterate, I think it's important to remember 8 that the thing that spends money is not a car. 9 It's a person. It's people that come downtown 10 no matter how they get there and go to 11 businesses and go to restaurants, spend their 12 money at shops, right, that's what we want to 13 happen and we need to make sure that we're 14 focused on actually achieving that rather than 15 achieving a particular means by enabling as 16 many cars to come downtown as possible. Thank 17 you very much for your time. Have a good 18 night. 19 MR. SMURL: Thank you. Ron Ellman. 20 MR. ELLMAN: Hello, Council, you 21 look at that Les. He got me up here so he 22 could get my seat just now. All of this 23 urgency for -- go, go, go while I'm up here, 24 Les. 25 While I -- before I start, when I  18 1 was in my wanderings around this week, there 2 was a fellow watching some program on his 3 telephone. And he told me he has the antenna 4 system at home. He says it's too bad that 5 Channel 19's not on it with all the thousands 6 of antenna systems in this city. 7 Besides that, he said if they had 8 some great big movies on, there'd be more 9 people watching 19 than anything else put 10 together. So I don't get 19. So I don't -- I 11 don't know about how all that works why we 12 don't have it. 13 What I do know, every single person 14 that I talk to is totally -- they're tired. 15 They're tired of the way this city just abuses 16 the taxpayers. And Council -- Council needs an 17 advisory group of people for us between the 18 residents and the city. 19 And all you are is an arm for the 20 Cognetti administration. This is just more 21 final examples of big business and her 22 policies. This is a phoney nonprofit. When 23 they made money, it was great. Then the 24 mismanagement and whatever -- you can't just 25 keep blaming Covid.  19 1 Two years now, they're down the 2 drain. I talked to a friend of mine in Little 3 Rock that since 1980's been a stock and bonds 4 business. He told me worldwide, those people 5 understand the risk factor in buying stocks and 6 bonds. 7 In 1982 I bought -- I forgot the 8 company. But I lost $2,000. It was a big -- a 9 real bad episode for the whole country. 10 Nobody -- nobody said I could get my money back 11 like you're wanting to do for a phoney bunch 12 that don't pay no taxes. We don't get a thing 13 out of them. It doesn't make sense. Let them 14 start over. 15 Janet Evans Council, they chose the 16 people of this city over mismanagement and high 17 salaries from the Scranton Parking Authority at 18 that time. Right now you got the same -- 19 you're in the same position except they use -- 20 they say it's Covid. 21 It's just total mismanagement the 22 last two years instead of cutting salaries and 23 doing things, they just want taxpayers to cover 24 for them. 25 It can't be done, you know, there's  20 1 no more dollar garages to sell. There's no 2 airports for Scranton to sell, no Sewer 3 Authorities. You have got to stick up for the 4 taxpayers of this city once and for all or else 5 you just don't belong in those seats. Thank 6 you. 7 MR. SMURL: Thank you, Mr. Ellman. 8 Jen Saunders. 9 MS. SAUNDERS: Hi, good evening, Jen 10 Saunders. I am a downtown business owner of 11 two businesses and a resident. And I had the 12 pleasure of attending last week's meeting and 13 wanted to follow up with tonight's meeting. 14 Thank you for allowing me to speak. 15 Thank you for the questions that you 16 asked of what I call the Parking Authority 17 because I don't recall the gentleman's name 18 that you asked again tonight. It still seems 19 like there's some unanswered question that 20 there still might need to be answered. 21 I am glad that with the elimination 22 of Saturdays on the table that that part of the 23 responsibility is taken off of the residents 24 and the customers and the people that come to 25 downtown. That's a step in the right  21 1 direction. 2 I still think with the extension 3 during the week that the businesses will be 4 negatively impacted. As stated earlier in some 5 of the commentary, there was some concerns that 6 I had throughout the day as the news stations 7 and newspapers are reporting that there was 8 already an agreement made with the Mayor when 9 it has not come to City Council until now. 10 Mr. McAndrew, you made a very valid 11 point about education. Listening in the cafe 12 today to my customers, trying to answer my 13 staff's questions without education to the 14 people of this city and proper communication, 15 town halls, focus groups, whatever it may be, 16 whatever that solution is, there is so many 17 rumors, there is so many discrepancies. 18 That has to end in order for things 19 to probably smoothly roll forward for lack of 20 better words. When I moved downtown, it would 21 be two years -- it will be two years in 22 October. I went over to the Parking Authority 23 for a parking spot. I had never lived in a 24 city before. 25 In addition to my rent for the cafe,  22 1 I pay to park behind it. But I live on 2 Lackawanna Avenue so I wanted a spot a little 3 closer, weather and stuff like that. And I was 4 told that there was a two-year waiting list for 5 the lower level on Washington Avenue near the 6 Connell building. 7 So the gentleman has done nothing 8 but the last few weeks but say how open the 9 garages are. Well, no one's called Jen 10 Saunders about her parking spot yet. I guess 11 I'll have to take a walk over there and see if 12 I could get a spot because it would be nice. 13 I love the idea of the residential 14 owners having a nice package plan to be 15 included and get some spots for their 16 residences. I've already talked to the owners 17 of my building because that's something they 18 need to know. Sorry, I was prepared this week 19 and I'm going off my notes. 20 Talking today about a future study, 21 I think we all know that that should have been 22 done prior. Company, nonprofit, whatever they 23 are of that size should be required to do their 24 due diligence and that includes talking to the 25 people that they are servicing.  23 1 The comment that was made by I 2 believe the city attorney that no one is going 3 to walk three blocks to Northern Lights, I'll 4 challenge that. I have customers that walk 5 from University of Scranton, the medical 6 college, Lackawanna College, businesses on 7 Franklin Avenue to Jefferson Avenue from 8 Mulberry Street to Lackawanna Avenue -- was not 9 happy to hear her say that tonight. 10 My product and my services are worth 11 the walk. So this brings me to a final 12 thought. I don't know timewise, but when the 13 City of Scranton announced the walkability plan 14 it was called at that time -- I know it's 15 changing names, haven't heard too much about 16 that in the last year or so. 17 I know a gentleman from the city 18 called me and asked me loads of questions and 19 said he would be in contact because he thought 20 I would be great in part of the planning 21 because I'm always willing to help. 22 What is this parking agreement 23 hearing that some of it might change in three 24 years? Has anyone thought about or brought in 25 the people working on the walkability plan and  24 1 how that may impact where we're parking, where 2 the garages are, what we're charging, what 3 we're trying to accomplish. 4 So I just wanted to bring that to 5 the attention because I just wasn't sure where 6 that was as a project itself, let alone having 7 to coincide with parking changes. 8 MR. SMURL: Thank you. 9 MS. SAUNDERS: Thank you. I 10 appreciate it. 11 MR. SMURL: That's all for our 12 sign-in sheet. Anyone else wish to address 13 Council? 14 MS. JEFFRIES: Good evening, Norma 15 Jeffries, Scranton resident. And I was glad to 16 hear that they took the Saturday parking off 17 the table and there won't be a fee for the 18 Saturday parking, so that's good. I was hoping 19 for the 7:00 to be revised as well, but as any 20 negotiation goes, you know, if you get a 50/50 21 you're doing good. 22 So it was good to hear that the 23 Saturday parking fees will not happen. I tried 24 to find the slides online from the caucus from 25 last week because I had questions about that --  25 1 I couldn't find anything. So maybe you could 2 help me answer. All of the reference to the 3 parking refers to downtown. 4 Does it cover any area in the city 5 that has the kiosks like around the 6 universities, the hospitals, libraries, does it 7 cover the whole area or just downtown 8 considering from Washington to Lackawanna and 9 Adams to Penn? 10 Like, I wasn't sure when it was kept 11 referring to downtown if all of the parking 12 kiosks throughout the city will be affected by 13 the change. 14 MR. SMURL: Norma, I will ask Frank 15 to look up the week before also and add it to 16 today's and put them on Third Order. All of 17 them, yeah. 18 MS. JEFFRIES: It is all over the 19 whole city so that if we're going to the 20 hospital now that you worry about your loved 21 one who's ill, you got to worry to get down 22 there before 7:00 that your fee's only going to 23 last until 7:00, okay. 24 MR. SMURL: Norma, just one second. 25 I was talking about the slide presentation.  26 1 That's what I wanted, okay. Thanks, sorry, 2 Norma. 3 MS. JEFFRIES: Okay. So another 4 thing that I thought about as I was sitting 5 there, Mr. King, you gave the scenario of a 6 resident coming home from work and they get 7 home at 5:00 and today they don't have to pay 8 for parking. 9 But in the new revise, they will 10 have to pay from 5:00 to 7:00 they will be on 11 the clock, right? So if I was a resident of 12 the city, you know, and I got home from 5:30 or 13 6:00, I'm tired. And it will pay for me to go 14 ahead and pay that dollar or I guess it's two 15 dollars an hour, whatever it's going to be. 16 So I'll pay the parking fee from 17 6:00 or whatever to seven. So I could still 18 park free around the clock and still, you know, 19 get up in the morning and go to work. So to 20 me, I don't think that's a very good scenario, 21 I guess, that the people are going to do that 22 trying to make people go to the garage. 23 I'm not sure I would do that if I 24 lived down there. So then when they come from 25 work on Friday and they park and they pay, they  27 1 still could park Saturday and Sunday and take 2 up that parking spot until Monday morning. So 3 I don't know what it's accomplishing by putting 4 that 7:00 timestamp on the kiosk parking. 5 And I was also wondering about the 6 fee. I didn't see anything about that -- well, 7 I couldn't find it. Now it's $35 if you get a 8 ticket. Is it going to increase with that? I 9 don't know. I didn't hear anything about that, 10 you know, whether the fees are going to be 11 increased if you get a ticket. 12 And the other thing -- the slides -- 13 oh, the software, you know, when, Jessica, you 14 mentioned it as well because I was thinking 15 the same thing. When there's a broken kiosk, 16 you know, I've seen those little cars go around 17 checking people's license plates to make sure 18 they are in the system. 19 So when I register I put my money 20 in -- well, I use a card. But I put my card 21 in. My license plate gets registered. I'm 22 imagining someplace in their software and so 23 when that little card goes by and zaps my 24 license plate number, they know that I'm legit 25 that they don't have to give me a ticket.  28 1 It seems to me that the software 2 update could do the same thing for the kiosks 3 that are broken because I've seen people walk 4 back and forth trying to find a kiosk. Just 5 right here on Washington Avenue because I'll go 6 to Abe's. And they go back and forth looking 7 for a kiosk, you know, that will work. 8 And it's so sad. And most of them 9 are out of state. So it seems like a software 10 update could work on those cars as they ride 11 around and zap our license plate, you know, 12 that they could also zap the kiosks. 13 And I wanted to also say -- Marie's 14 not I'm here tonight but they did fix that big 15 whole on Spruce Street, you know, so that's 16 fixed, you know, so she's not here. I didn't 17 see her anyway. So that's all I have to say 18 tonight. 19 MR. SMURL: Thank you, Norma. 20 MR. COYNE: Tom Coyne, Minooka. 21 First of all, it was mentioned there was an 22 executive session that was held that was a 23 litigation issue. Litigation -- listing it as 24 a litigation issue is not a proper response. 25 When executive session needs to be put in  29 1 place, you need to put either the case number 2 or the subject under it. 3 You could shake your head all you 4 want, Mr. Gilbride, but that's the law. Moving 5 on, my five minutes was hijacked by the Mayor 6 this morning. The Mayor went onto WILK and 7 announced her decision to modify this metered 8 time with a contracted company. 9 It was agreed to drop Saturday. The 10 city pays $50,000 a year to cover for it. 11 Saturday has been negotiated out. Was this 12 deliberation and a Sunshine Act violation that 13 they were able to negotiate it out because the 14 Mayor herself is her quorum. 15 If a decision was made by the Mayor 16 in negotiation, I want to see the minutes from 17 that meeting. Where was the public invited to 18 it because that was a deliberation directly on 19 changes for this government. And as a sir 20 member, that is supposed to be open under the 21 Sunshine Act. 22 It was amended by the Mayor. So why 23 are we here tonight before Council? Obviously 24 she announced it earlier today which means it 25 doesn't matter what you say because she's  30 1 already said what you're going to vote. Your 2 vote doesn't matter because the Mayor already 3 said so. 4 It was amended by the Mayor and 5 that's -- that's horrible unto itself. The 6 Mayor says people will not have to pay on 7 Saturday but the agreement says we're going to 8 give them $50,000 for an estimated $72,000 a 9 year income. 10 So in effect, she said we're not 11 going to have to pay for it. That's true. The 12 city is going to pay for it which means the 13 residents are going to pay for it anyway. It 14 just gets funneled to everyone because the city 15 does not create money. The city creates taxes. 16 So you are robbing the people to pay 17 these groups. As a procedural note, your 18 reintroduction could be voted on, but it's not 19 supposed to be done until after Eighth Order. 20 I talked on that, but evidently Robert's Rules 21 are not being taken a look at because it could 22 be run on but is not actually supposed to be 23 voted on until the order is -- everything on 24 the table is actually run and exposed. 25 So once the agenda is clear, then  31 1 it's actually proper. You could vote it under 2 Roberts's Rules. I've looked over the street 3 parking ordinance multiple times. They're 4 convoluted and conflicting. 5 It has extremely murky verbiage and 6 the same cover sheet explainer was used on all 7 the ordinances regarding -- regardless of the 8 content changes. 9 It even had in the paper and the 10 news saying that the extended hour change was 11 dead. But it's undead in 7-A, File 91 tonight. 12 The ordinance last week 84 of 2025 that was 13 struck down was on the ability of the city 14 administration to authorize changes and 15 modification of parking contracts. 16 And it was retrospective. The 17 failure of the ordinance and removing of the 18 overlying authority has removed the changes. 19 Section one that failed was City Council 20 approves and authorizes the Mayor and 21 appropriate city officials to enter into, 22 execute, deliver and restate agreements. 23 As it stands, City Council denied 24 city officials the ability to enter into this, 25 execute, deliver, and restate this agreement  32 1 for the immediate time because it was voted 2 down in the last session. 3 Now we have 7-A, a bill containing 4 similar conditions that were struck down. I 5 bring your attention to 7-A, File 91, Section 1 6 amends bagging service and fees. But it has in 7 it the meeting -- metered parking hours 8 extension. 9 Pervasive extending of the meeting 10 hours and multiple places have been precluded 11 because it's a modification which was not 12 allowed from what was struck down last week. 13 This is your legislation, Mr. President. Can 14 you explain how failed ordinance 84 affects 15 ordinance 91 as the city from last week was not 16 allowed to continue negotiations and the Mayor 17 obviously did unless City Council did it 18 backdoor, had a quorum and didn't discuss with 19 the people. 20 You had a chance to table last week 21 and we all know you wanted to move it forward. 22 But you pushed the issue and it got voted down. 23 Can any of you answer -- I'm only asking the 24 President why we're going forward when this was 25 struck down and why is it a rush to get it  33 1 through and kick it through an order today? 2 Why not one more week? It seems like we're 3 going through a meat grinder. Good night. 4 MR. SMURL: Thank you. 5 MR. ARGENTA: Virgil Argenta, 6 Scranton taxpayer, Scranton City Council 7 candidate. 5-B, 1928 antiquated provision 8 overnight parking on city streets, do you have 9 any idea how many calls to service our officers 10 have on a given night and you want them to 11 worry about parking on city streets? 12 I'm addressing you tonight as both a 13 resident and an advocate for accountability and 14 community focused decisionmaking. Miss 15 Saunders, I will walk to Northern Lights for my 16 Chai tea from anywhere in the city. 17 2016, Scranton entered into an 18 agreement intended to stabilize our parking 19 system and protect residents from financial 20 burdens. The entity behind this arrangement 21 now operating as Grow America was granted 45 22 years of operational control. With that 23 responsibility comes accountability. 24 Currently this organization is 25 facing default. It is important to clarify  34 1 that the city is not liable for that debt. 2 Scranton residents neither caused the 3 breakdown, nor should they be responsible for 4 covering 2 million dollars or accepting 5 increased metering enforcements on behalf of an 6 organization that has not filled its 7 obligations. 8 Such measures do not exemplify 9 fiscal stewardship. Rather, they constitute a 10 bailout for mismanagement. The approach does 11 not align with community driven governance. It 12 results in the extraction of value from 13 Scranton citizens. We have higher 14 expectations. We call for fiscal transparency 15 including full disclosure on budgets, 16 liabilities and actual figures. 17 We ask for consideration of our 18 downtown community. Solutions must not 19 penalize our businesses, students, library 20 patrons or visitors for failing outside of 21 their control. Above all, we seek 22 accountability ensuring that future agreements 23 are structured to safeguard the public, not 24 expose them to unnecessary risk masquerading as 25 a rescue.  35 1 My vision for Scranton centers on 2 inclusions, transparency and resilience. No 3 debt should be assumed without robust debate. 4 No concession should be approved when our 5 community is required to compromise extensively 6 with very little benefit in return. 7 We understand what is at stake. And 8 we are prepared to lead with clarity, integrity 9 and determination. It bears repeating, the 10 operator was positioned as the expert brought 11 in to support us on this parking issue. 12 A decade later it is the city being 13 asked to bail out the organization that was 14 supposed to bail us out. Their management 15 failures are the not fault of Scranton 16 residents. And our community's assets must 17 remain protected. 18 Furthermore, when this entity 19 defaults, there is direct impact on the city's 20 financial standing. The current administration 21 has not clearly communicated that Scranton is 22 not directly responsible for bondholder losses. 23 The debt arises from a concession 24 agreement with bonds issued by the operator, 25 not the city. As such, Scranton did not  36 1 guarantee these bonds and holds no legal 2 obligations to underwrite losses resulting from 3 a default. 4 Ultimately residents placed trust in 5 an external expert to resolve the challenges 6 that now face demands for additional payments 7 due to their mismanagements not of their own 8 making. 9 Let us remain clear, Scranton is not 10 responsible for this debt. Mr. Gilbride can 11 second that. Despite suggestion to the 12 contrary, they failed. Give us back our 13 assets. Week after week, Mr. Smurl, I bring 14 issues to the forefront. I ask questions. I 15 receive no answers. 16 How when you don't answer any 17 questions can I talk to citizens who are 18 supporting me if I can't get answers from the 19 administration? I've asked about lawsuits and 20 I asked about dollar amounts. One lawsuit in 21 particular, I would like to inquire about, Miss 22 Virginia Flynn's wrongful termination. 23 How much has it cost us to defend 24 this case to date? That shouldn't be hard for 25 you to get this info. After all, it's  37 1 taxpayers's money that's being spent. Thank 2 you, Council. 3 MR. SMURL: Thank you. 4 MR. MANCINI: Good evening, Council, 5 Mike Mancini, Scranton. There are always right 6 ways to do things and there are wrong ways too. 7 Let's dive right into it, shall we? 8 Hear me twice, Paige Cognetti, 9 because I will only say this once, poor choices 10 get poor results. It starts with your City 11 Solicitor who's part of the legal team 12 regarding the sale of the Scranton Parking 13 Authority and the Scranton Sewer Authority. 14 The later of which was the only 15 reason why you are no longer in Act 47. No 16 need to do a victory dance or a photo 17 opportunity over that one. Same could be said 18 about the debate -- debacle regarding the 19 mismanagement of this nonprofit and the bailout 20 of our parking issues. 21 Once again, two plus two equals 22 potato. The initial deal was to include paid 23 Saturday parking. This was the Mayor and the 24 solicitor's decision. Now she takes a step 25 back and no Saturday parking. To me it's like  38 1 a smoking mirror. This was the plan all along, 2 remove Saturday, if need be, and still sock it 3 to those who park and businesses, some of which 4 try to prosper in small margins. 5 Not one of our city -- not one in 6 our city agrees that these garages are worth 45 7 million dollars plus the 2 million dollars, 8 plus but the 150,000, the city's contribution 9 over 10 years. Combined, they are worth maybe 10 15 million dollars. 11 No one to this point asked about 12 what would happen if we truly default -- 13 actually a nonprofit defaults. Google their 14 nonprofit. They've had problems all over the 15 country. Who's to say they're not using their 16 funds to bail out one of their other failing 17 projects. 18 Two weeks in the row we listen to 19 the equivalent, two fast talking car salesmen 20 who previously said Covid was not an issue. 21 Now it's an excuse. The nonprofit cannot be 22 trusted or rewarded for poor quality of work. 23 What happens if we make them 24 default? Do we lose the garages? Are they 25 worth anywhere near 47 million dollars plus 10  39 1 years from now? The answer is no. I don't 2 think any victory lap is made to be had here. 3 Looks like the bailout to the people who should 4 not deserve another chance who clearly were 5 careless with the truth when they were in good 6 shape not long ago. 7 I hope that Mr. McAndrew and Mr. 8 Schuster do the right thing through the 9 deception and lies of both this administration 10 and the failing nonprofit. 11 It seems like everyone in this 12 administration sticks their noses into 13 something and gets messed up, four less deep 14 end pools, an extra set of locked doors to 15 greet individuals because the Mayor feels so 16 unsafe in her own city, the shortage of 17 Scranton Police Officers who protect us nonstop 18 to the best of their ability, contract 19 negotiations with DPW that continue to go 20 nowhere, the homeless crisis with no answers, 21 parking issues that bail out a failing 22 management nonprofit who cannot be trusted, 23 recently two stabbings on Sunday night with a 24 second call required backup from Dunmore and 25 Dickson City, the extreme required police  40 1 presence, not one prosecution for an unwanted 2 opoid death, miles and miles of ripped up roads 3 that require swerve patterns because we cannot 4 make PA Water responsible for their work, 5 blight issues that are starting to have a plan 6 in place in a day -- gauged where the number of 7 photo opportunities are a must. 8 If you think some of these things 9 that I mention are good for you, your 10 neighbors, your friends, your family, your 11 community, then vote for Paige Cognetti and her 12 failing expansion team. I personally chose to 13 run for Mayor because I recently suspended my 14 campaign. 15 The timing wasn't right for me. I 16 need closure for my son's unwanted death. I 17 hope to get that closure on September 12th. I 18 personally spoke to 267 registered voters in 19 the City of Scranton who signed my petition. 20 There would have been -- there would have been 21 no need to be represented by a law firm from 22 Philadelphia to represent me like Council 23 President Smurl. 24 I did my homework. Mr. Smurl. I 25 triple dog dare you to enter the Council race  41 1 because I will be there to contest your 2 petitions and ask the Lackawanna County 3 District Attorney's Office to proceed 4 accordingly. 5 The burden of proof will be 6 provided. What happened was more than just 7 being overzealous. There are legal questions, 8 hints, a law firm from Philly, follow the Mayor 9 around like a little wet dog. Never question 10 her intentions -- 11 MR. SMURL: Thank you, Mr. Mancini. 12 Your time is up. Thank you. 13 MR. MANCINI: -- release everything. 14 MR. SMURL: Thank you. 15 MR. MANCINI: Good luck with your 16 project. 17 MR. SMURL: Thank you. Never grow 18 up, do they. Anyone else? 19 MR. LITTLE: Hi, Rik Little, 20 Scranton. When I first moved here around 2004, 21 you know, there was one -- they had the same 22 kind of parking meters that were in the movie 23 Cool Hand Luke where he's taking apart -- in 24 the first scene he's taking apart the parking 25 meter and then he ends up in the road gang  42 1 fixing roads and digging holes and filling them 2 in. 3 There's a basic problem in Scranton 4 with the whole -- to get things done. I mean, 5 to run an orchestra, you need a conductor. To 6 run a, you know, a construction crew, you need 7 a foreman, make a film, you need a director. 8 And it's just as an observer through 9 the years, you know, from one kind of parking 10 meter to another kind of parking meter to 11 another kind of parking meter -- and each time 12 it just gets more expensive and more convoluted 13 and more scare tactics like the bond is due and 14 we're all going to die if we don't pay this 15 amount. 16 But there is no focus on Scranton, 17 all of these people, all of these outside 18 contractors -- almost everything is outside of 19 Scranton. I mean, even the Scranton YMCA is in 20 Dunmore. I mean, it's outside of Scranton. 21 It's not building Scranton. 22 And there's no -- there's no 23 impotence to build Scranton because in the 24 constitutional setup of Scranton, it's the Home 25 Rule Charter, same as the county, oh, it's to  43 1 make things go easier. Well, they are spending 2 a hell of a lot of money on lawsuits. 3 And it's taxpayer money being spent 4 on lawsuits. And it goes on and on and on. 5 And, you know, I come here and everybody is 6 talking about, oh, the roads are bad and 7 everything. But, you know, there is like a 8 different department for everything. 9 I mean, they dig up the road. They 10 cut the road. They cut the top and they dig a 11 hole and you see the hole for, you know, 12 sometimes a couple weeks, months. And, you 13 know, that's to fix the water pipe, you know, 14 and then they do it again for the sewer pipe 15 and they do it again for gas pipe or the cable 16 pipe or electric pipe. 17 There has to be some sort of 18 coordination, and that's the problem. There's 19 no coordination. Oh, we're going to put the 20 parking with these experts, same experts that 21 are in all the sanctuary cities across America. 22 You could just see how it's ripping apart, you 23 know, the local communities. 24 To save Scranton, you're going to 25 have to concentrate on Scranton, you know,  44 1 maybe a thing in the college for a meter maid, 2 you know, the meter maid degree or, you know, 3 the hole digging degree. But to dig the hole 4 and have one whole separate organization, you 5 know, it's so convoluted. 6 American Water and PP & L and all of 7 these different companies, you know, who are 8 experts. That's basically what it is. We're 9 going to hire an expert to take care of it. 10 And then we won't have to think about it. Just 11 like I've been reading about, oh, they put a 12 security system in at Scranton Housing 13 Authority. 14 They have HIG. They're an expert in 15 security, you know, but no one goes into 16 the -- there's no -- you can't justify the 17 amount of money that's spent -- taxpayer money 18 that's spent with the result. 19 And the result in the long run is -- 20 it's unsustainable. You are not going to keep 21 the city going. And as far as government 22 things go when they are digging up the streets, 23 which are the public streets, you shouldn't dig 24 them up seven times. It should be coordinated 25 in a way and we're in a crisis situation.  45 1 We need a pump house now. You don't 2 wait until it rains a lot and then there's 3 floods and then -- and then, oh, everybody 4 forgot about it. And then it rains again, you 5 know, we have got to get the federal fund money 6 coming in. 7 You know, it's too much 8 concentration of outside money coming in and 9 people used to it in all the big agencies, the 10 HUD, the Department of Education, Health and 11 Human Services. You need some coordination, 12 coordination in governance here in Scranton 13 that supports Scranton and people of Scranton 14 and the businesses of Scranton. Thank you. 15 MR. SMURL: Thank you. Anyone else? 16 MR. VOLDENBERG: FIFTH ORDER. 5-A. 17 MOTIONS. 18 MR. SMURL: Mr. King, do you have 19 any motions or comments? 20 MR. KING: No, just to reiterate 21 Norma pointed it out. I was thrilled to see 22 that on Biden Street that that strip across 23 just past Jefferson Avenue is filled so we 24 didn't bottom our cars out every time we came 25 to town.  46 1 But in terms of the parking 2 situation, all I know is the city went into 3 default once before. And I'm not going to let 4 history repeat itself. That's all. Thank you. 5 MR. SMURL: Thank you, Mr. King. 6 Mr. Schuster, do you have any motions or 7 comments? 8 MR. SCHUSTER: Yes. A couple people 9 in the audience tonight brought up John 10 Wilding, Officer Wilding. He was a personal 11 friend of mine. And I just want to say his 12 name for his family. And I hope his family 13 peace of mind to all of his family and friends. 14 When it comes to the parking 15 situation, I will -- I'll speak to that on the 16 question. But, Frank, I do have a couple 17 things that are pending. As you know, a lot of 18 e-mails with the -- you've gone over. I have 19 some water issues, some code enforcement issues 20 and then some police issues that we'll get 21 over. 22 But other than that, I'll -- we 23 could touch on on another different day. So 24 they'll be coming over. But that's all for 25 tonight, Mr. Smurl.  47 1 MR. SMURL: Thank you, Mr. Schuster. 2 Dr. Rothchild, do you have any motions or 3 comments? 4 DR. ROTHCHILD: Yes, I have a 5 couple. Thank you for those who did mention 6 Officer Wilding as well. It's 10 years and 7 it's very sad that we lost him as a city. And 8 I want to make sure we don't ever lose someone 9 like that again. 10 So I wanted to bring up an issue 11 that I've mentioned previously. And I'm not 12 sure why it's not being addressed. And I don't 13 believe we received any recent responses on it. 14 But there's been a few places that I 15 brought up that have had issues with garbage or 16 recycling pickup. And this place in 17 particular, it's still an issue. So it's 18 Fairview Avenue, the 100 block. 19 The neighbors have not been getting 20 their recyclables picked up. And I think it 21 was first brought to my attention over a month 22 ago at least. And I've brought it up a number 23 of times and nothing's happened since then. 24 MR. VOLDENBERG: We were advised 25 last week that that would be taken care of.  48 1 I'll follow up. 2 DR. ROTHCHILD: It still has not. 3 I'm not sure why it can't be added into Rubicon 4 if it's not already there or why they are 5 getting their garbage picked up and not the 6 recycle. I just don't understand what the 7 barrier is there. So if we can get some 8 answers and ensure that it is taken care of. 9 MR. VOLDENBERG: I will. I'll ask 10 management. 11 DR. ROTHCHILD: Thank you. There is 12 an empty corner lot and this has also been 13 brought to my attention before. And we have 14 like City of Scranton barricades up. It's at 15 the corner of Prescott and Vine. 16 And like I said, it's an empty lot. 17 And it's getting quite overgrown before. So I 18 think we've had our blight folks take care of 19 it in the past so if we could send them over 20 there to that property again. 21 MR. VOLDENBERG: I will, Dr. 22 Rothchild. 23 DR. ROTHCHILD: Thank you. And 24 since the storm that happened a couple of 25 nights ago, some of the streets that I was  49 1 bringing up and asking that DPW take care of 2 have worsened, particularly Pine Street around 3 Regional Hospital so, like, Pine and Jefferson. 4 It's in really bad shape and even 5 more blacktop has been washed away since the 6 more recent storm. So I'd like to get an 7 answer on when that's going to be addressed. 8 MR. VOLDENBERG: I will. 9 DR. ROTHCHILD: Thank you. And 10 that's everything that I have for now. 11 MR. SMURL: Thank you, Dr. 12 Rothchild. Mr. McAndrew, do you have any 13 motions or comments? 14 MR. MCANDREW: Yeah, so regarding 15 Officer Wilding, Joan is right. We must never 16 forget. I can't believe it's 10 years because 17 it's hard to believe that happened 10 years 18 ago. So God bless his soul. God bless his 19 family. We'll definitely always remember. 20 I didn't get responses from my 21 inquiries last week. One that's really pending 22 that I really need to know or like to get a 23 response to was the one on -- in Tripp Park, 24 KOZ that property where the resident is very 25 concerned where they, you know, spray painted a  50 1 whole bunch of white lines regarding the 2 internet or the broadband installation. 3 You know, she's concerned about 4 shrubbery, the lines might go under her 5 concrete paved driveway. So please, if you 6 could follow up and see what's going on there. 7 And again, she wants to know -- this resident, 8 is it required, is it mandatory. I don't think 9 it has to be. 10 I mean, everybody -- there's a bunch 11 of different providers out there. I don't 12 think she needs to have her yard all dug up. I 13 don't know. That's not my wheelhouse. But 14 she's concerned and I share the same concern if 15 that starts happening with residents that, you 16 know, need answers. 17 And then behind the Burger King on 18 Luzerne Street there's a baseball field. I 19 think most people are familiar with it. It's 20 called the Oxford Plot or referred to as the 21 Oxy. And I have been getting a lot of 22 concerned baseball moms and baseball dads that 23 when you exit the baseball field onto Meridian 24 Avenue, there is only a yield sign. 25 I mean, it might have been okay when  51 1 they first initially put it in. But these 2 parents are very concerned. They think it's a 3 public safety issue that warrants a traffic 4 study. And I agree because Meridian's a very, 5 very busy road. 6 And there's a lot of foliage that 7 might block the view of, you know, even around 8 the yield sign. So would you please reach out 9 and see if we could have a traffic study on 10 behalf of the parents? And I agree. I think 11 it's warranted. 12 MR. VOLDENBERG: I will, Mr. 13 McAndrew. 14 MR. MCANDREW: Thank you. And 15 that's all I have. 16 MR. SMURL: Thank you, Mr. McAndrew. 17 I just have a couple comments on the parking 18 garages. For one, we don't have 45 million 19 dollars to pay for them to take ownership back. 20 That is simply never going to happen. 21 But I'm not also going to let this 22 go into receivership like last time. We all 23 saw what it did last time. We had zero 24 control. We had a company come in. All they 25 did was run it themselves. And their main goal  52 1 will be to get their money back. 2 So really to allow that to happen 3 again is for me, it's off the table. So I hope 4 we move forward with this tonight. That's it. 5 MR. VOLDENBERG: 5-B. FOR 6 INTRODUCTION - AN ORDINANCE - REPEALING AN 7 ANTIQUATED 1928 PROVISION THAT PROHIBITS 8 OVERNIGHT PARKING ON ANY STREET IN THE CITY. 9 MR. SMURL: At this time I'll 10 entertain a motion that Item 5-B be introduced 11 into its proper committee. 12 MR. KING: So moved. 13 DR. ROTHCHILD: Second. 14 MR. SMURL: On the question? 15 MR. MCANDREW: So, Solicitor 16 Gilbride, I mean, this is an antiquated old 17 ordinance. I think some people might be 18 confused as to what, it doesn't make any sense. 19 But it's something we have to clean the books 20 from. Can you briefly explain it for the 21 public, please? Thanks. 22 ATTY. GILBRIDE: Sure. I wasn't 23 around in 1928, so I can't tell you what they 24 were thinking. However, I'm assuming that 25 because there were very few cars owned by very  53 1 few people back then. Probably those on the 2 wealthier side owned cars. 3 They all had off-street parking, 4 carriage houses. This law basically back then 5 said that no cars can be parked on any city 6 street in any street in the city anywhere. 7 This ordinance just repeals that. Luckily our 8 Scranton Police Department is wise enough not 9 to waste their time enforcing a law that no 10 longer make sense in an era where many people 11 have more than one car. 12 And certainly there is more than one 13 car in each household. But under this law, you 14 could still face jeopardy if you park your car 15 on the street. We're just cleaning that up if 16 you approve this and getting rid of it. 17 MR. MCANDREW: Thank you. 18 MR. SMURL: Anyone else? The reason 19 is -- last week this was brought before Council 20 that we had options to tow cars at night. So 21 I'm glad this has come to our attention and it 22 is being removed. 23 MR. MCANDREW: It's a little funny 24 and ironic that it appears, you know, in the 25 same two weeks of the bunch of legislation  54 1 we're dealing with, but, okay. 2 MR. SMURL: Okay.

They were supposed to return it 25 back to its natural condition that it was in  55 1 and they have not. So I will be moving this 2 forward tonight. 3 But will you ask the water company 4 if they are going to go back and repair the lot 5 to the right of the parking lot. It looks like 6 they are going to need about three tri axles of 7 topsoil to finish what they did not finish. 8 And they are going right back in the same spot 9 again. 10 MR.

SCHUSTER: As amended. And 4 we're going to make our amended -- - 5 ATTY. GILBRIDE: The concession 6 agreement was amended, sent back to us for your 7 consideration. 8 MR. SCHUSTER: All right. It's 9 going to be amended in Seventh Order though, 10 correct? We're going to add those amendments 11 in Seventh Order? 12 ATTY. GILBRIDE: No, you're 13 confusing two different -- 14 MR. SCHUSTER: Yeah, I just want 15 clarity on it. 16 ATTY. GILBRIDE: You're confusing 17 two different ones. This is the concession 18 agreement. The times and dates are the Seventh 19 amendment order one that you're discussing. 20 This is the actual concession agreement itself. 21 MR. SCHUSTER: As amended. 22 ATTY. GILBRIDE: As -- when I say 23 amended, the ordinance has not been amended. 24 You are accepting the concession agreement 25 that's attached to this ordinance. The  62 1 attachment has been amended under the new rules 2 that Council spoke about last week at the 3 meeting. So I'm not trying to be difficult 4 with you here but -- 5 MR. SCHUSTER: I know. I'm just 6 trying to make sure this is done correctly. 7 ATTY. GILBRIDE: The ordinance 8 itself has been amended. You are basically 9 accepting the concession agreement. The 10 concession agreement has been amended to 11 reflect the changes to concession agreement. 12 MR. SCHUSTER: And this action that 13 we're taking is moving it from Sixth to 14 Seventh, correct, and it's going to go to 15 Seventh for final passage. 16 ATTY. GILBRIDE: No, this your 17 approving it and then you'll -- after this, 18 that will move it from Sixth to Seventh. 19 MR. MCANDREW: So for all intents 20 and purposes, this piece right now we're voting 21 on is the amended piece and with all the 22 concessions that were discussed tonight. 23 ATTY. GILBRIDE: Correct. 24 MR. MCANDREW: Okay. 25 MR. SMURL: Anyone else?  63 1 ATTY. GILBRIDE: And again, not 2 to -- 3 MR. MCANDREW: I know we're going to 4 piecemeal a little bit -- 5 ATTY. GILBRIDE: That was agreed to 6 between the company and the city. 7 MR. MCANDREW: Correct. 8 MR. SCHUSTER: Where I'm confused is 9 next we're going to start to actually make 10 those amendments, correct? It going to go 11 into Seventh. 12 ATTY. GILBRIDE: It's going to go 13 into Seventh and then you'll vote all of it 14 again. You'll vote for this again in Seventh 15 and then you'll vote for the changes to the 16 hours all the rest that were approved last 17 week. 18 Although this concession agreement 19 approval was not approved last week, the others 20 were. 21 MR. SCHUSTER: Correct. Okay. 22 MR. SMURL: Anyone else? 23 MR. MCANDREW: So we could speak on 24 the question now or in final -- 25 ATTY. GILBRIDE: You could speak on  64 1 the question whenever you'd like to. 2 MR. MCANDREW: I'm going to speak on 3 the question now. All right. So last week I 4 made the motion to table this legislation after 5 listening to business owners stakeholders and 6 residents, many of whom felt this was their 7 only opportunity to be heard. 8 It was disheartening that they never 9 had a seat at the table. We needed to take a 10 pause. My no vote was a yes for them. The 11 two-two failure sent a clear message to the 12 administration, Grow America and bondholders 13 this deal is not good enough for me or not for 14 the people I represent. 15 But here we go -- here we are again, 16 another rush job by the administration. They 17 brought back this down at the last minute 18 urging us not to table it just days before we 19 break for the summer. This kind of rush last 20 second maneuvering needs to stop. 21 The Mayor and her administration 22 needs to act more professionally and start 23 respecting the process and the people. This 24 isn't a great deal. And it's certainly nothing 25 to be promoted as a political victory for  65 1 whatever race she may be running. 2 I stood firmly with downtown 3 business owners and residents who oppose 4 Saturday parking fees. Small businesses are 5 the backbone of our city and many are still 6 recovering from years of economic challenges. 7 Weekend parking fees would have hurt them at 8 their busiest time. 9 That's why my focus was on finding a 10 solution that avoids default without placing 11 more burdens on the small businesses, 12 residents, students or even the library 13 patrons. 14 Only Councilman Schuster or I had 15 the ability to reconsider and bring this 16 legislation back. And I want to be clear, I 17 would never have considered doing so without 18 the complete removal of weekend parking fees. 19 I believe I did my job with the best interest 20 of our residents in mind. 21 Had I not voted no last week, I'm 22 not sure we ever would have seen a better 23 outcome. 24 MR. SMURL: Thank you, Mr. McAndrew. 25 Anyone else?  66 1 MR. SCHUSTER: So I guess I will 2 save my comments for the Seventh Order piece. 3 DR. ROTHCHILD: I will as well. 4 MR. SMURL: All those in favor 5 signify by saying aye. 6 MR. KING: Aye. 7 DR. ROTHCHILD: Aye. 8 MR. MCANDREW: Aye. 9 MR. SMURL: Aye. Opposed? 10 MR. SCHUSTER: No. 11 MR. SMURL: One no, the ayes have it 12 and so moved. 13 MR. KING: I make a motion to 14 suspend the rules to move Item 6-C to Seventh 15 Order for final vote. 16 MR. MCANDREW: Second. 17 MR. SMURL: There's a motion on the 18 floor and a second to suspend the rules to move 19 Item 6-C to Seventh Order for final vote. On 20 the question? All those in favor signify by 21 saying aye. 22 MR. KING: Aye. 23 DR. ROTHCHILD: Aye. 24 MR. MCANDREW: Aye. 25 MR. SMURL: Aye. Opposed?  67 1 MR. SCHUSTER: No. 2 MR. SMURL: The ayes have it and so 3 moved. 4 MR. VOLDENBERG: SEVENTH ORDER. 5 7-A. FOR CONSIDERATION BY THE 6 COMMITTEE ON PUBLIC SAFETY - FOR ADOPTION - 7 FILE OF THE COUNCIL NO. 85, 2025 - AMENDING 8 FILE OF THE COUNCIL NO. 91, 2002 "AN ORDINANCE 9 (AS AMENDED) PROVIDING FOR THE ESTABLISHMENT OF 10 PARKING METER ZONES WITHIN THE CITY OF 11 SCRANTON; ESTABLISHING HOURS OF OPERATION; 12 PROVIDING FOR THE INSTALLATION OF METERS AND 13 PARKING METER RATES; AUTHORIZING THE 14 ENFORCEMENT OF PARKING ORDINANCES AND PROVIDING 15 PENALTIES FOR VIOLATIONS THEREFOR BY AMENDING 16 SECTION 3(A) TO REFLECT THE CHANGE IN HOURLY 17 RATES", AS AMENDED BY FILE OF THE COUNCIL NO. 18 41, 2016 AND FILE OF THE COUNCIL NO. 67, 2019, 19 TO AUTHORIZE AN INCREASE IN CERTAIN METERED 20 PARKING FEES, AN EXTENSION OF THE HOURS OF 21 METERED PARKING ENFORCEMENT AND THE 22 IMPLEMENTATION OF A SERVICE FEE FOR CREDIT CARD 23 AND CERTAIN OTHER PAYMENT METHODS. 24 MR. MCANDREW: I make a motion to 25 amend Item 7-A as follows:  68 1 Number one, in the fifth whereas 2 clause in the last line, change the enforcement 3 hours from 7 a.m. until 7 p.m., Monday through 4 Friday to 8 a.m. until 7 p.m., Monday through 5 Friday, additionally removing Saturday hours of 6 enforcement. 7 Number two, in Section one after the 8 now therefore clause, add the line the increase 9 in bagging fees and the service permit fees as 10 set forth in Exhibit A are hereto to the 11 metered parking hours extension and the 12 implementation of service fee are hereby 13 authorized. 14 MR. KING: Second. 15 MR. SMURL: There's a motion on the 16 floor and a second to amend Item 7-A. On the 17 question? 18 MR. SCHUSTER: On the question, I am 19 going to vote yes to add these amendments into 20 this as because of the failure of last week, 21 the actions of me and Mr. McAndrew led to these 22 concessions. So I will vote to add these in 23 and reserve my vote for Seventh Order final 24 passage. 25 DR. ROTHCHILD: On the question,  69 1 I'll be voting for the amendments as well. 2 Last week I chose not to vote to table the 3 piece because I knew that it could go into 4 Seventh Order this week. 5 And had we not received the response 6 that we were looking for, then I would not have 7 been voting on it tonight or would have myself 8 tabled it. 9 So last week during caucus there was 10 a discussion about -- about removing Saturdays 11 and so I'm glad to see that that occurred and 12 that the bondholders were in agreement to do 13 that as well as the changes from the weekly 14 hours from 7 to 7 to 8 to 7. 15 I know that will still be a change 16 for our residents and business owners. And I 17 am happy to see that they're committed to doing 18 a study. And I've asked for data on the number 19 of points multiple times in past. 20 And I think it is really important 21 that they talk to the business owners and to 22 the residents to make sure that this is -- 23 this is fair and that we're able to get people 24 into the garages and everyone could get a bit 25 of what they want. So that's what compromise  70 1 is. 2 And, you know, this is -- this is 3 necessary as you heard tonight that they 4 reiterated and that Councilman McAndrew had 5 asked about too for clarity on that this -- 6 this is going to help us to avoid default and 7 receivership and getting back into a situation 8 that we were in previously. So I believe this 9 is the most fiscally responsible option for the 10 city. 11 MR. SMURL: Thank you. 12 MR. SCHUSTER: Also on the question, 13 I much preferred to table this last week as 14 when we looked at the timeline for the city or 15 for them going -- actually going out for the 16 bond, I didn't want to hold up that date to 17 have an affect on the interest rate. 18 So as to not have an affect on the 19 interest rate, I much prefer to table it last 20 week, however, it failed. 21 MR. SMURL: All those in favor 22 signify by saying aye. 23 MR. KING: Aye. 24 MR. SCHUSTER: Aye. 25 DR. ROTHCHILD: Aye.  71 1 MR. MCANDREW: Aye. 2 MR. SMURL: Aye. Opposed? The ayes 3 have it and so moved. What is the 4 recommendation of the Chairperson for the 5 Committee on Public Safety? 6 MR. MCANDREW: As Chairperson for 7 the Committee on Public Safety, I recommend 8 final passage on Item 7-A. 9 MR. KING: Second. 10 MR. MCANDREW: As amended. 11 MR. KING: Second. 12 MR. SMURL: On the question? 13 MR. SCHUSTER: On the question, 14 Mr. Gilbride, when saying yes to this, is it 15 agree to final passage or is it just on the 16 amendments? 17 ATTY. GILBRIDE: I'm sorry, what? 18 MR. SCHUSTER: Is a yes vote on this 19 just for the amendments or is it final -- 20 ATTY. GILBRIDE: No, this is final 21 passage. You already voted the amendments. 22 MR. SCHUSTER: Thank you. Now, 23 what's moving to Seventh -- as I'm looking at 24 this, I see something moving to 7-C. What is 25 it that's moving to 7-C?  72 1 ATTY. GILBRIDE: That is one of 2 the -- 6-C you mean -- 6-C moving to 7-C. Is 3 that what you are referring to? 4 MR. SCHUSTER: Yes. 5 ATTY. GILBRIDE: Yeah, so a vote 6 here would be to approve the amended 7-A. 7-A 7 came forward. It was passed last week. Mr. 8 McAndrew made amendments to it to reflect the 9 changes in the enforcement. You voted the 10 changes to the enforcement. Now you're voting 11 on the original 7-A. 12 MR. SCHUSTER: So this is 7-A with 13 those amendments. 14 MR. MCANDREW: As amended. 15 MR. SCHUSTER: Thank you. 16 MR. MCANDREW: But 7-C is final 17 passage, correct? 18 ATTY. GILBRIDE: That's with 19 regard -- correct, that with regard -- 20 MR. MCANDREW: Okay. 21 MR.

SMURL: Officer, will you ask 3 them to quiet down in the hallway, please? 4 Thank you. As Chairperson for the Committee on 5 Rules, I recommend final passage of Item 7-C. 6 MR. KING: Second. 7 MR. SMURL: On the question? 8 MR. SCHUSTER: On the question, I 9 just want to start by making sure that everyone 10 knows that the ordinance that we have in front 11 of us last week was completely crafted and 12 negotiated and written by the Mayor and the 13 city administration. And what we've already 14 heard that there's been some taking credit for 15 this deal. 16 I just want to restate that, you 17 know, without actions of myself and my 18 colleague Mr. McAndrew who voted this down last 19 week, the residents wouldn't see the deal which 20 we have in front of us tonight. With that -- 21 with the failing motion last week, the 22 administration was forced to go back to the 23 negotiating table. 24 So I am happy to see that the 25 Saturdays -- that was one of the biggest  77 1 concerns last week that Saturdays remain free. 2 I'm happy to see that has occurred. And I see 3 that there's a small reduction on the weekdays. 4 So you've seen one hour reduction on the 5 weekdays. 6 When it comes to this new agreement, 7 businesses that operate within those normal 8 hours aren't affected anymore. So I am happy 9 to say that. But those businesses that do 10 operate in those outside of normal hours such 11 as restaurants, hair salons, the library and 12 the schools in the area are affected. 13 And I don't want to see any business 14 in the City of Scranton affected by that. I am 15 happy that concessions have been made. But I 16 feel the deal could have been a little bit 17 better if the city didn't have to come out of 18 pocket for the money that was -- that was asked 19 here, I would be voting yes for this. 20 But I think a better deal can be 21 made. I would like the vote here tonight to 22 reflect the actual conversations that were had 23 in this room. And three years out when the 24 data is collected, we could move in a path but 25 that this vote here reflects the conversations  78 1 that were had and the input from our citizens 2 and our downtown businesses. 3 And I would like to say that we did 4 listen to those businesses when they came last 5 week. Thank you. 6 MR. SMURL: Thank you, Mr. Schuster. 7 Anyone else? Roll call, please. 8 MS. HERBSTER: Mr. King. 9 MR. KING: Yes. 10 MS. HERBSTER: Mr. Schuster. 11 MR. SCHUSTER: No. 12 MS.
