President John: At this time I’d like to deviate somewhat from the printed agenda. We have a guest with us this evening that would like to make a special presentation. At this time I’d like to ask Scott Minier with the Indiana Crime Prevention Coalition to come forward. Welcome.
Scott Minier: Thank you Mr. President, Members of the Council and addition to everything she just rattled off what you have on your desk. You also have a gift from our organization, a not for profit that is made up of community leaders like those behind me. Police Department, Public Agency’s, elected officials, businesses, unions, just every walk of life of Hoosiers young and old alike who are concerned about crime. And I’m representing our organization, it’s the largest grass roots organization in the country, the Indiana Crime Preventing Coalition. Tonight, as it’s Executive Director, I’m here to present a special award to the Mayor, but actually to the people of the City of Evansville for their outstanding participation in last August’s National Night Out Against Crime. I’ve been talking with some of the Council Members, some of the Police Officers this evening and we were very proud with the participation. We are always very proud of the participation in Evansville and the Vanderburgh County area, but we were especially proud that you were among five national winners this year that brought home awards to Indiana. Last Thursday we traveled to Terra Haute, tomorrow we travel to Gibson, nearby Gibson County. We also have an award up in Monticello who was an award winner last year, and then the City of Indianapolis who is a six time perennial winner. We’re very, very proud of what’s
going on in Evansville and across the State. We were this past August, the first and only State in the Nation with 100% participation among our communities. All 137 cities and towns across Indiana participated in some fashion with National Night Out Against Crime. The people behind me are really the experts. These are your neighborhood leaders who did the cookouts in all three sectors, worked with your Police Department that I know you are very proud of and we’re very proud of. And I think it says a lot of the 1,700 jurisdictions across this country and the 137 across the State who participated in National Night Out Against Crime. You were among the very best. And, the National judges recognize that. With that in mind I would like to pass along the National Award to Mayor Lloyd and to the people of the City of Evansville. Congratulations.
Mayor Lloyd: Real brief. I would like to thank Council Members for their support of this. It’s something that with our Police Department, with our Fire Department, our Parks, and our Neighborhoods we can do good things and take back the night. We’ve got I know Deputy Chief Joe Reed is here and we’ve got representing the Evansville Police Department Lt. Gary Weber, Lt. Gary Voegel, Lt. Dan DeJong, Officer Debbie Williams, Officer Randy Rolly, and Officer Paul Kirby were ones from the Police that worked hard on this project. Then representing our Parks and Recreation Deputy Director Dan Schall. And then our neighborhood leaders the three sites that we had this year, Akin Park, Loraine Park, and Garvin Park. And I know a number of you all attended those sessions. Just a wonderful positive thing so I accept this award on behalf of all of them. And I’d like all the neighborhood leaders to please stand and be recognized. Without your help we couldn’t get this done. I appreciate very much this award.
President John: Thank you. As a Member of the Council and I’m sure that I speak for all Members of Council we are very appreciative of all the hard work and effort that not only the Police Department, but the neighborhood organizations and the staff of the City. And I know that many of the Council Members are very active with this particular night out too and I’d like to extend my thanks and congratulations to all of you. Do any other Council Members have anything that they would like to say at this time? Thank you very much, I appreciate it. With that we’ll go to the Consent Agenda and the first reading of ordinances.
Councilman Bagbey: Do you want them to stay or leave or?
President John: They are more than welcome to stay. We don’t have a lengthy agenda. We always appreciate participation, but if you find it necessary to leave we understand.

AN ORDINANCE TO REZONE CERTAIN REAL ESTATE IN THE CITY OF EVANSVILLE, STATE OF INDIANA, MORE COMMONLY KNOWN AS 221 AND 223 OAKLEY STREET
PETITIONER: BERRY PLASTICS CORPORATION, INC.
President John: Do we have a representative from Berry Plastics please. Counselor, welcome.
Steven Krohn: Thank you. You got to me sooner than I expected, I was back there asleep. My name is Steven Krohn, I’m the Attorney for Berry Plastics. It’s been a long time since I’ve been here. I’ve missed you guys. I see some new faces. We are here asking for a rezoning of what is now the Wash Tub Laundromat, at the corner of Franklin and Oakley Street. It is currently C-4, we’re asking for rezoning to M-1. You’ve probably read about this in the paper after the Area Plan Commission meeting. This expansion will allow the addition of another thermal form line and may eventually result as many as 150 added jobs to the 900 who are already here at the various Evansville facilities. If there are any questions I’d be glad to answer them? Perhaps that’s a better way to approach it than to tell you what we are going to do. Since you’ve already read your reports that way we can save time.
President John: It appears it is just an expansion of the ongoing operation and I did notice that it was approved twelve to nothing at Area Plan, is that correct?
Steven Krohn: Yes sir.
President John: Are there questions by Members of Council? Is there anyone in the audience that would like to speak in favor of or in opposition to this rezoning request?
Councilman Melcher moved and Councilman Watts seconded the motion to adopt Ordinance R-2003-5 and call the roll.
ROLL CALL:
Ayes: Kniese, Bagbey, Melcher, Robinson, Koehler Walden, Watts, John.
Absent: Angermeier, Kiefer.

RESOLUTION DOCKET
RESOLUTION C-2003-7 (DOCKET) COUNCILMAN MELCHER
A RESOLUTION TO RESCIND THE TAX INCREMENT REPLACEMENT LEVY UNDER IC 6-1.1-21.2
President John: Everyone should have received, in their packet, a Resolution, which was filed by Councilman Melcher. At this time I’ll turn the floor over to Councilman Melcher to explain his request.
Councilman Melcher: I believe we’ve talked about this two or three times. This is a tax city wide one-quarter of 1% across the City. I think what we did, we did all the research on it and if we don’t do anything it automatically passes the Redevelopment Commission and I think Peggy Braun the Director, Interim Director of DMD, will be able to explain maybe when they filed it, but I think it was back in July, June, June, June of last year that they were going to go ahead and raise taxes city wide. I think everybody knows my stance on taxes. When you raise taxes city wide then that means that, you know, it has to be for something, or for our budget. And we also have looked at a lot of different things here, and I believe that if you have taxes, and we’re going to be raising taxes then they ought to be for the General Fund. Which that means it goes to, all goes to our General Fund. The Mayor brings it to us on a Finance Ordinance on a project and then we have the Legislative right to vote for it. So I did have a request for Peggy to come this evening.
President John: Please come to the podium. I noticed you were trying to say something and you’re more than welcome to join the conversation. So at this time you have the floor.
Peggy Braun: Thank you Mr. President. I wanted to pass around, and I’ll start with Councilman Watts, and if you’d be kind enough to take one. This would be a letter from the Mayor’s office in support of Councilman Melcher’s Docket Resolution to rescind the assessment, the additional assessment levy on the Tax Increment Finance Area.
President John: So this comes forward with a do-pass recommendation from the Administration?
Peggy Braun: Yes sir it does.
Councilman Melcher: I kind of thought that it would go that way, but I just….
Peggy Braun: I’m sorry?
Councilman Melcher: I really thought that it would be really hard, nobody wants to raise taxes.
Peggy Braun: If it would please the Commission would I, for the record, be able to read the letter that the Mayor wrote. It should be on file.
Dear Honorable Council Members. I want to offer my support to Councilman Steve Melcher’s resolution to rescind the Tax Increment Replacement Levy under Indiana Code 6-1.1-21.2. This replacement levy is estimated at $74,414.40 per financial consultant H.J. Umbach and Associates estimate. The Evansville Redevelopment Commission has exciting projects underway for Redevelopment within the downtown Tax Increment Finance, (TIF), Downtown Economic Development Area for the remaining $525, 585.60 that will spur additional development. This small tax reduction generated by this recession will benefit property tax payers in the Downtown Economic Development Area. I concur with this idea. I urge Council Members to support Resolution C-2003-7. Sincerely, Russell G. Lloyd Jr. Mayor.
President John: Thank you. Any questions by Members of Council?
Councilman Melcher: No. I would like to thank the Mayor for supporting it. This is probably the second time I’ve thanked him in the last ten days or so. Part of it was on the Housing Trust Fund. Everything seems to work right when we keep communications going and we’re all working for the common cause. So again I’d like to thank the Mayor. I wish he was still in here I’d thank him personally. Thank you.
Peggy Braun: Certainly, thank you.
President John: Are there any other questions or comments from Members of Council regarding this Resolution? If not the Chair would entertain a motion.
Councilman Melcher: You might see if anyone in the audience might?
President John: Is there anyone in the audience that would like to speak either in favor of or in opposition to the Resolution as presented?
Councilman Melcher: I’ll move for a do-pass and call the roll.
Councilman Melcher moved and Councilman Bagbey seconded the motion to adopt Resolution C-2003-7.
ROLL CALL:
Ayes: Kniese, Bagbey, Melcher, Robinson, Koehler Walden, Watts, John.
Absent: Angermeier, Kiefer.
There being seven (7) ayes and zero (0) nays, Resolution C-2003-5 is hereby declared ADOPTED.
MISCELLANEOUS BUSINESS:
President John: Before I go to Committee Reports we’ll go under Miscellaneous Business. I’ve been requested by Greg Fehn, is Greg still here? He would like a brief moment to state something to Council.
Greg Fehn: My name is Greg Fehn, I’m President of the Goosetown Neighborhood Association. My apologies for the timeliness of this, I was actually here at your last Council meeting and I didn’t check the agenda, and evidently it was a little bit shorter than I anticipated, so I missed you guys. But what I wanted to do was come here tonight and thank you for your consideration on the Collins Rezoning. Not so much whether we won or lost I’m not sure if we actually won or not we’ll see on that. But what I wanted to thank you for was I know that that decision was tough. It was put off a few times, it was put off a few times, and I know it was a tough decision to have to make either way. And the fact that it was tough says a lot for this Council and says a lot for the neighborhoods that we do have a voice. If nowhere else we at least have it at City Council. So I wanted to come in here and thank you that. And I wanted to thank Councilwoman Robinson and Councilman Bagbey for the time and effort they put in it. I know that Councilman Bagbey spent his Saturday morning trying to work with the Goosetown Neighborhood Association on that. So I just wanted to thank you for that because, you know, at least we had a voice and at least you guys were listening and I do appreciate it. Thank you.
President John: Thank you Greg. Other items under Miscellaneous? Any other Council Member. Councilman Bagbey.
Councilman Bagbey: Well, a couple of things. First, what there is left of Saint Patrick’s Day wish everybody a very joyous and holy Saint Patrick’s Day. Second thing I think in about ten minutes our President will be addressing our Country. And one of the things that really kind of disturbed me while I was on vacation with my son playing baseball down in Florida was a continuing assault of our President by people in the entertainment industry. One even said that they were embarrassed because he was from the State of Texas. It’s just like I told our Mayor one time, I may disagree on what you do financially and how we finance government, but Russ Lloyd is my Mayor, just like George Bush is my President. And I encourage decent, but I don’t encourage people making vicious attacks upon our President. And I just wish that everybody tonight, in their own little way, to God or whoever they talk to, in their own little fashion, that we make the right decision for this Country and for our world. It’s going to weigh heavy on all of us. We’ve paid a tremendous price in this Country for freedom, but for us to attack our leaders personally is unconscionable, it is unforgiving. Whether it’s the Mayor, whether it’s a Member of Council, or even our President George Bush. So I ask that you pray tonight, in your own way, that our President makes a very difficult decision that he has to make. And I hope USI wins BJ.
Councilwoman Walden: Thank you Mr. President. I have a….I would like to extend an invitation. I received a news release that will be going out I believe it went out today regarding baseball stadium forms. I will be hosting a forum on the north side and I know some of my neighbors in the audience and some of you have left to give information to the public about the proposed baseball stadium. It will be this Thursday, March 20th, at 7:00 at the Days Inn Airport out on the Highway 41 North. Billy Ripken will be there to talk about his part in this baseball stadium. So I would encourage anyone in the City, and particularly north siders, I know there are a lot of questions, to come out Thursday night, 7:00 to the Days Inn on Highway 41 North. We will also be having a West Side and an East Side meeting. Not to steal your thunder Councilman Kniese, but I’ll just go ahead and announce the west side meeting is March 31st, Monday at 7:00 p.m. we do not have a Council meeting scheduled that night. At Saint Boniface Catholic Church, and on April 1st, which is a Tuesday evening at 7:00 at the Roberts Stadium meeting rooms. So I would encourage this community to come out to get your questions in line and ask those questions so that we could all receive information about the baseball stadium. I would also request Mr. President falling on the heals of Councilman Bagbey’s comments that at the end of our meeting, or at 7:00, whichever comes first, I think it would be appropriate for this Council to take a moment of silence at that time. Thank you.
Councilman Melcher: What was the time on Roberts Stadium, April 7th?
Councilwoman Walden: April 1st at 7:00, Robert’s Stadium.
Councilman Melcher: Okay, most of us will be at the candidates night.
Councilwoman Walden: Yeah. March 31st at 7:00, at Saint Boniface, or this Thursday March 20th at 7:00 at the Days Inn. So there are three opportunities.
Councilman Bagbey: Will we be told at those meeting the exact final financing plans of this project?
Councilwoman Walden: I do not know if that information is going to be available at those meetings. I know that there is a meeting of the Finance Committee that has been….that we are supposed to have this Thursday at 3:30. So…
President John: From my understanding that’s about the Soccer Complex.
Councilwoman Robinson: Yeah, that’s soccer ball.
Councilwoman Walden: So..
Councilman Bagbey: Because wasn’t the Baseball Committee supposed to be here in February?
Councilman Melcher: Yes, but can we request them to be here…..
Councilwoman Robinson: Excuse me, someone will be here most of…. on April the 7th for this designation of the sports.
Councilman Melcher: Yeah, I was going to say it would be good if they would give us a presentation that night on where we are financially at that time. Because that way we know what we’re voting on when we vote on it.
President John: Would you like for the Clerk to send notice to them, to the Committee, and ask them to have a representative here to explain their financial package?
Councilman Melcher: Uh-huh.
Councilman Bagbey: And the Mayor?
President John: And the Mayor. Yeah, I think it is necessary that he be here.
Councilman Bagbey: Because if you look at it on excel package the financing is up and down in the numbers that are reported by the media and that’s the only way I have to look at right now.
President John: Any other comments by Members of Council? Councilman Kniese.
Councilman Kniese: Thank you. In our packets Friday when I received my packet I got a copy of Action Lines, as I’m sure all of the other Council Members did. It’s published by the Indiana Association of Cities and Towns and it’s pretty exciting to see the City of Evansville on the front cover. It has down on the lower right hand corner, Evansville, Southwest Indiana business hub. And so it’s a lot of good information in this magazine that we received as Council Members. And it goes to several cities throughout the State of Indiana so it’s nice to see Evansville highlighted on the front of this and a very nice article in there about the business development that’s going on in our fair city. Thank you
President John: Any other Members of Council? Is there anyone in the audience that has something they would like to present tonight. I noticed we still have quite an audience out here. If not we’ll go to Committee Reports, Finance Chairman.

Councilman Melcher: That’s the one I was telling you about, they wanted $17,500 if you remember.
