City Council - Regular Meeting

This is now available online.

Oh, okay. We're in a hurry. But did you have anything to do? Okay. Welcome to Asheville City. Thank you. Aha! Today is August 20th, 2026. We are conducting a survey for the CET Council agenda for this coming August 25th. I am handing this over to the CET Manager.

Thank you, Mayor. Everyone is welcome. Aha! We are a little different today. Because we are online instead. But the process is the same. We will conduct a survey for the regular yoga agenda that will take place here at 5 pm on Wednesday. Assistant CET Manager Jai Dandis will tell us about this agenda and the eight-week calendar.

Thank you, CET Manager Wesley, Superbatham, Mayor, Council members. I am Jai Dandis, Assistant CET Manager. Based on the information contained in the agenda, today we have a very busy agenda. That is why I will try to finish it as soon as possible. As mentioned earlier, in the next 8, 2, 5, 2 p.m. 5 p.m. in the Council Chamber, we will begin to announce the month of September 2026, the month of the Uncertain Cancer Awareness Month. After that, we will move on to the Consent Agenda. As always, I will go through the agenda and tell you the important things. If I leave anything and you want to talk about it, please stop me. We can definitely discuss those things. And... I will start from the seal. This is an event support grant for the Asheville Area Arts Council. This is a long-term partnership. Through this, local government funds have been transferred to help local labour organizations with city event fees. Equally, this has a special feature. There is a slight difference in the way the Business Improvement District distributes these funds. And... Next, Inamgi is the current Bungum County funding for the City of Asheville Leadership Academy. This is the funding of $65,000. This is a great initiative that brings high school students together and brings them to know each other. This is a long-term initiative, but it is also a major part of what we do every year. And, Inem-F is a HOD Youth Homelessness Systems grant. This grant will be given to us after more project management. The Homeless Strategies Department and the COC, which specializes in this funding for youth with disabilities, will help to promote the ongoing activities of the COC. Inamji G. The CDBGDR and CDBGDR grant funding for urban development projects is available. The Council has repeatedly announced the distribution of these funds. This is done in an efficient manner through the distribution of these funds discussed earlier. What funds are included in the staff report? Yes, This is the Inam-El-El-Bungum County Madison Regional Hazard Mitigation Plan. This was discussed in the most recent Public Safety Committee. This is an effort by public safety emergency management organizations to identify natural disasters and reduce the risk of life and death in this cloud. This is a multi-jurisdictional, multi-authoritative act. This was first adopted in 2016. Such plans are needed to support the state and federal fundraisers. Next, This is another public safety device that you need to pay attention to. This is $15,000 from Duke Energy to buy protection shelters in the forest. These are small shelters that can be carried in their bodies by Fire Force employees when they are on fire. If they are on fire, these shelters provide immediate temporary protection to keep them safe. This is in 50 Ashlyn Avenue. Council has been hearing about this for the past few years. FTA-FTA funding was provided for the use of the land we bought and how it will be used in the future. This is FTA-FTA funding. This is why there will be a plot related to this plan. In addition, there are a number of uses, mixed uses, and things that have already started. This funding concept will be used as a design. This will help us to find funding to move forward with the project. Jade, I have a question about this.

This week, I talked about this with Brad for the first time. And I don't think this will stop us from doing this. And I think in 2017, this house was built for the teachers of Buncombe County and the teachers are staying there. So the question is, can we use this place to build houses for the city's workers? For example, I know that we conducted a project about the park in Kalarengam the year before I arrived at the council. So, if you are planning to do art, music, service, etc., and if there is a municipality, if someone starts working as a dishwasher in a restaurant and then gets a design female job, we can give them the opportunity to continue working in the city. Will this lead us to any problems or will other grand funds lead us to share?

Thank you for the question, Council Member Rooney. I can only talk about legal issues. I don't think this will get into legal conflicts. The Federal Fair Housing Act imposes strong regulations on the general selection of houses by the Department of Defense. Age is a different matter, but I think this is one thing that can be done legally in the case of city employees. Certainly, we have to take into account the effects of this in this process. So, we have to do more research to find out how this can happen. But I don't think it's impossible in the legal context. Is the ship in Kalamegala wrecked somewhere?

I'm not sure about that. Certainly, we can find out. This is a great question. This will help us find out how it works.

So, when we go through this process, we will definitely remember it. Thank you. Inampi is a district in the F.Y. 26 Paratransit district of Buncombe County. This district is to reduce the actual cost of service in the last financial year. This program is $1,14,618.48. To be precise, this is their actual expenses. Next year, or in the next 27 years, we are going to use the Paratransit service in Buncombe County. So, this is just the continuation of that process.

So, are P and U the usual things we do? That's right. Yes.

There are no changes in the formula or the curriculum. It's just the process. Right. Yes. That's right. And... Inamar is the Budget Department that allows us to use funds that provide unsuitable facilities. Here, there is a Be in lieu, Fee in lieu program. This is a fund that we have used to create pathways between development activities. This fund has been used for years. This is a budget fund that allows this fund to be spent. This fund is mainly used to provide facilities, school facilities, and methods under NC DoD. Often, when NC DoD builds a sidewalk, they require more assistance from us. But we are paying special attention to using this fund in the streets outside DoD areas. Jade, I have a question about this.

According to the staff report, this fund is for the construction of high-rise buildings, school facilities, and DOT. I know that there is a system and a gap plan that makes it possible for us to move forward. Is it included in this? It also says about the small-scale match-ups. So, if we don't connect this by completing the things in the Munkannana framework, it will be difficult to make it clear. I understand. The methods in the GAAP plan are in a large scale.

Therefore, the $8,85,000 agreed in the past few years will not be enough for such large-scale methods. In addition, these small measurements are not on a large scale, and GAP plans have not yet released any information about them. So, we can use this fund to make such measurements happen. So, they have not released any information about GAP plans. Will we be able to explain these measurements even if they are not in GAP plans?

Then this is a question to Brad. I think it's very easy to make things happen without our fee-in-lieu. Then why is there so much effort to make tree fee-in-lieu happen? Let me say it again. That's a great question.

This is a question to ask Brad.

Maybe Ben can give it back. This comes in the PED part. This is about sustainability.

In North Carolina, there are some decisions about the fees for trees and remote areas, and I can add more about how to use them in terms of foodbath fees. That's why it was easy for the residents to make it work. But we were waiting for the court's decision on what kind of measures would be available for the other fees. Thank you. I am sure the public will appreciate this. This year, it has been decided to come back to PEET.

I am taking care of it as it should be done. Jade, can you give some examples to introduce this to the council?

It is the same Kavala of Kavala Beer Creek and Mimosa, which are now being sold. This is a very large Jammu. This is a very large Kavala. This is about half a block from Patton Avenue. These are all in that style, and I believe this is in a school zone. So this is one of the most popular in these streets. Thank you. To respond to Councillor Rooney's question, Bear Creek is a good example. It is a method included in the Bear Creek Gap Plan, but it costs about one mile and crores of rupees. This river creates great interest in the safety of Kalnadayatrakars. That is why these funds are being invested in this. Thank you. NMS is a division with Wachter Consultants. We have been helping with Wachter for a long time. They helped us with our initial parking and garage prices. They also helped us with our initial parking and garage prices. They also helped us with our initial parking and garage prices. They also helped us with our initial parking and garage prices. They also helped us with our initial parking and garage prices. They also helped us with our initial parking and garage prices. They also helped us with our initial parking and garage prices. They also helped us with our initial parking and garage prices. They also helped us with our initial parking and garage prices. They also helped us with our initial parking and garage prices. They also helped us with our initial parking and garage prices. They also helped us with our initial parking and garage prices. They also helped us with our initial parking and garage prices. They also helped us with our initial parking and garage prices. They also helped us with our initial parking and garage prices. They also helped us with our initial parking and garage prices. They also helped us with our initial parking and garage prices. They also helped us with our initial parking and garage prices. They also helped us with our initial parking and So last year, or the year before, we completed major renovations and renovations in Wall Street and other areas. This facility will allow us to operate in the Harris-Cherokee Center garage and in the Biltmore Avenue parking deck. These are the major renovations that meet the needs of the community. This is also important to increase the life of these underground facilities. Jade. Yes, how much is the cost of this? Is this 11.3 million for all the garages? Or will we have to pay for this again? That is a big question. If necessary, we can provide more details on this. However, the cost we had to pay for the various activities of the parking garages was 11.3 billion. So, I don't know how much the actual cost is now, but after these measures, the cost of our parking garages is 11.3 billion. This is a very interesting thing, because earlier it was stated that such innovations are increasing the life of the garage. So, with this big investment we made, we will have to raise the life of the garage, and then we will have to find a fund for the construction of the Bawile. So, 11.3 was the initial investment.

To bring him to the local government, Pinnidu continued with his illegal work.

That's right.

It was a time plan. Thank you. At that time, I would like to remind you that one part of our parking revenue is being used to help other departments. We've been doing that for a while now. But when we first investigated this, it was said that we were moving to a department that was worth approximately 8 billion. We need 11 billion to fix our own things. So remember that in general.

As you all know, for the past few years, we have focused our attention on using a long-term view of our heritage sites. This is a major part of it. So, this will definitely continue in our attention. In-M-T is a project that welcomes 80,898 dollars in 2025. This is used to buy and install 28 Cradle Point routers in our APD patrol cars. The Cradle Point routers are the most powerful Wi-Fi routers that can be installed in vehicles. When I looked at their website the other day, I saw that they are used in all municipal vehicles. This is especially for APD. This ensures mobile connectivity when we are on the road. This is the last item I have included in the consent agenda. This is a grant for the waste management, debris recovery, and disposal grant program of NCDEQ. This is a grant program that allows us to clean up some private assets that have been left behind in the activities of the Army Corps. So, there was a piece of property that was not included in the PPDR PPDR program. For that, we will use this. Will this be included in the cost?

Yes, it is included in that. That would be a big thing. That would be a big thing. Is this a piece of property that we can see if we get an award?

We can't do that. Yes, we can continue. We can give a memo. But I don't know if that information is in it.

That would be a big deal. I am paying attention to some of the wishes of my community. I am very happy to hear that you are looking for a way to do this. Because everyone knows how difficult it is to protect one's own property. City residents, local residents, everyone was trying to find ways in a great way. They had lost some of their belongings. They still need help. A normal person cannot afford this. So, I am very happy to see you here. That's a good news. Yes. This concludes the discussion on consent agenda. We have two things in the presentations and reports.

The first is to introduce Alan York to the leadership of North Carolina Fellowship through UNC School of Government. Alan has been with us for two weeks now. They are doing very well. They took action very quickly, so we will introduce you to them next week. Then there is the Elia Park Infrastructure Project. This presentation will be similar to the one about the French Broad River Park System a month ago. Women and our design consultants are thinking about how to rebuild this park that has suffered damage to Helen Chulalikad. Let's introduce it to the council. That morning, a joint meeting will take place between the Infrastructure Recovery Board and the People and Environment Board. They will hear a presentation on this issue for the council. That is how the reports and hearings end here. I am Benini Kaimaruke. She will explain it to you in detail. There are a few slides next to me. I will give you a brief overview. You have two hearings. Our interim planning director Chris Collins and our Planner 3 or Principal Planner Will Palmgost are here. If you have any questions, they are here. But your first public hearing is about an item in the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals. This is a direct rezoning. This changes from the RM district to the HB-HV district. This is only for a small part of their land. When the zoning is given to this place, you can see that most of it is zoned as HB-HV. The thick blue line in the picture on the left is the zoning line on the ground. RM16, Room 16, HB, HV, etc. are drawn in the middle of the area. It does not form a property line. As a result, it is very difficult to use this zone parcel, which is separated from this facility, when it wishes to use its own property. So, this zoning line changes the HB zoning line to form the property line with them, as seen in the picture on the right. This allows the HB zoning district to follow their property lines. I believe this is very simple. Another common issue with us is the history of language differences. We have been talking about this for a long time. We are proud to present you with a package of missing middle students as part of the program that will be used to fight against the smuggling that is taking place in the city. We have worked on it. Chris and Will are here to answer your questions. My vote will be very short. So we will give you a joint vote or Chris Collins will give it. So we will include all this in one vote. But you have to vote in three different votes. So each candidate will have its own staff report. It needs its own vote. On Wednesday, you are going to discuss about allowing duplexes. It is a problem in other districts. On the other hand, duplexes are allowed in all single-family zoning districts and some other mixed-use districts. This will increase the size of the Accessory Dwelling Units. Initially, we had planned up to 1,200 square feet, but due to a recent state law, it will have to be reduced to 1,000 square feet. However, this will increase the size of the ADUs, and some measures will be taken to make the ADU construction easier. Finally, North Carolina has already taken action on this. We are not allowed to make any changes to the parking space. But these changes will help us to improve our ordinance. So, these are the three changes that are in front of you. They are part of the ADA. If you have any questions, I will call Chris Collins and ask him to come forward. If you don't have any questions, I will call J.D. Dundas to announce the agenda for the 8th week. Excuse me.

Can I say one more thing? I was doing both things at the same time. It's my fault. Can I say one more thing about the difference between 1200 and 1000 square feet? I will call Chris to talk about this.

Because this is a recent development. Brad will also know about this. Chris, if you want to ask about the difference between 1200 and 1000 square feet, you can ask. Okay. Yes, Chris Collins from the Superbadham Planning and Urban Design Services Department. It was a thing in an old town. Due to the changes in the constitution, this situation is constantly changing. Ben Parking was announced earlier, but now it is a constitutional honor. After the PNC, after the subordination of the Planning and Zoning Commission, the Constitutional Legislative Assembly passed a bill that the accessory develing units should have at least 1200 square feet. According to that, the best way is to be between 800 and 1000 places for ADUs. So, it is very important. Why did they do that? Why did they do that?

We are really surprised. I think they are doing that because the ADU area is seen as a very dangerous place. Countries from religious to intellectuals were lobbying against the distribution of ADUs. So this was a way for them to improve their skills in construction. This is a reflection of the fact that our country is self-sufficient. I think this is a great solution to continue in their own homes at an age.

So some of the people who operate these systems may wish for more than 200 square feet of land at an age.

On the other hand, I think it is a legal bigotry. Someone will question it. Because it is a strange thing. It is an illegal thing. The Supreme Court is trying to regulate the size of a marriage. This is a new development. This special law was adopted in the last few days.

So, you can see that there has been a change in this from the time it went to the pens. We are paying attention to this, but it is a big legislation that is developing, and it happened just now. So, there are no major changes to this, but this is very new.

In the short term, we will implement a language-based system. But if this is questioned, we can come back. Because the aim of this was to make it a little bigger.

Certainly, I will say that there are many other things that are required in that bill itself. So we have to do something else. We will have to inspect it many times.

So, all this was in it. All this was in the budget, right?

This was not in the budget. But other changes? Many changes in the use of land were included in the budget. This was a special bill. So this is very new. It was a small budget surprise.

Mills River had made many changes. We were observing that it was inappropriate for our rights. Then the local government intervened and said that it was not possible to do it with Mills River. So they are all observing this. I would like to move on to another topic. I am a PNC student. There was a big discussion about this. Our PNC students are very attentive. They are thinking about all the needs of this. In the past, there was a discussion about minimum load standards. Therefore, I felt that the PNC had done a good job of making that suggestion a reality. My Regards Otherwise, I would like to know how long this will take. This is not something that can be resolved on Wednesday. But before going to full ODO, I would be very interested in examining the location and the conditions. This is a recommendation from the PCC, PCC committee. I agree with this. I had actually read the SAP report. I understood it from the presentation.

I was surprised that you didn't include it in the SAP report as a recommendation. I would like to know more about the fact that you only included two of them. We will start with a conclusion. We have not calculated how long this will take. So, I will say a similar calculation. But I always say that it is better to include this in the Udo experiment we are currently doing. However, we need to investigate the specificities of each zoning district and the location of each zoning district. We need to investigate what are the conditions for the laws in those areas that are in place, and what are the conditions for the start of the setbacks. First, we need to investigate what kind of laws we are making in the districts. Also, you need to look at what to expect. That's right. In terms of the location, this is up to 4,000 square feet in our smallest districts. This is very small.

Very small to an extent. When we count it as our smallest road, there will be big changes. Certainly. There is a lot to explore there.

Yes. This is not that easy. You know that the size of the place and the facilities we have in the flogging lots are now known. We have seen some of them being useful. This is an attempt to ensure a time limit. Because a significant part of this is community-based, the residents will be very interested in this because the changes in this place will affect their lives. However, I think it will take at least six months to complete the observation and other things. Don't take this as a certain time, because I have increased the number. But,

I keep saying not to stop the process until it is completed, because it would be a great loss to lose the opportunity to maintain the cost of building more houses. So, if we can find out the outside parts of the huge process, our Planning and Zoning Commission has approved it. I don't want to wait for three years. I want to make it clear that this will be a good start to look at another project.

I believe this is part of the agenda. Not only in this, but in other ways too. Yes. But do you know what we can do in the next phase? We can reach the goals that are not too complicated. That's a great wish. Since I know about the mapping, I can understand that Chris' mind is now in the knife age. Because this is a big thing. There are a lot of details. We have to be very careful. But... We have to investigate in this phase.

So, we have to find out what to accept as the next step for this Missing A Middle Samrampath.

Yes, can we discuss in detail what are the things that can be easily implemented before Udova? Okay, I want to know how this HCD-2 may be implemented.

The reason is, when I look at the opinions and opinions I get, some politicians say that we had a method of dealing with the price of missing middle housing, rent, and the possibility of evictions, but even if we do not accept it, there are small changes coming, which they forgot. So now they are asking if there are any changes happening related to us. That is why public awareness is more important in our cities. One of the reasons why PNZ had agreed to inspect the plot size in the PNZ area is that it was not done for duplexes when the town homes were changed. Therefore, there will be more trouble for big projects. But if you are trying to build a duplex in your own plot, you will have more resources. I would also like to know more about it. Okay, allow me to say one more thing.

Would you like to conduct your presentation? Yes, I can. For the Mayor. Can I talk to you?

It's a little difficult for me to hear. But...

In the next meeting of HCD, I think they will investigate the changes in Rs. 2. What will it be? I am thinking if it is one that can be taken forward quickly. I don't know who this question belongs to. Is this a question to Ben? About Rs. 2 in HCD. Oh, that's why. Yes. Stop for a moment. They are making sure. Go on. Okay.

It will be a way forward, some of the clouds that our big plot needs. For example, from 2 rupees to 4 rupees, to 8 rupees, to restore. Then you will have to restore a lot of things. Therefore, this will not happen without restrictions and strict procedures. We need to talk to people and make sure that everyone knows things. So it's not that easy either. But there are two ways to get there. Yes. Yes. Thank you, Chris.

For Vice Mayor's question, it will be discussed in the HCD committee in September. So let's hear more about it.

For doing that project and for carrying out these three previous tasks, I need people to change some of the things to be done during this time. So, I want to take some time to evaluate whether we have the support of the people. That's right. About some of the things you mentioned earlier, we can create some things that the people don't need much work for, but we will have to spend time for that. When they try to do more, it is not right to ask them to do more. But,

I think there is a question being asked there. What is it? From the size of the plot?

From the size of the plot and the townhome changes.

If that is what is happening there, we are working on a code that is 30 years old to allow the placement of the plot in duplexes. On Wednesday night, you can see a slide. It will make things clear. But it will be placed on the ground in duplexes. Because that is the only configuration that works in this. We have tried many ways to do this. This is for the special facilities that are allowed for town homes. Thus, the plot size and width can be reduced. There may be no setback in the distribution. Therefore, a duplex is requested to make a parcel from each unit.

If that's what you're thinking... That's right.

As I hear from my co-workers, there seems to be a lack of goodwill in their staff report. Therefore, I believe that more research is needed on the plot size. Certainly, a quick question for you all. Is the maximum height of this building allowed to be 25 feet high? Is this in a state, or is it internal, or is it community-based? The answer is yes. That is what our staff, Subarsha, has come up with. And it is not affected by the state law. No, because there have been so many state laws since this day, I had to think about it.

I had to look at Brad. But now, more than 1 feet more than SEPBAC, more than 25 feet is allowed in UDU and UDO. The reason is that ADU and EDU are only increasing in size very little compared to what we intended to predict. But you can see where we thought we were going, right? Yes, so can we get ready to talk about it on Wednesday? I'm thinking about bringing it back again.

Oh, something is written on my mail. Yes, but the aim of it was to maintain that relationship. That's right. Yes.

That's why. Mayor, he has no objection. He will have one question. He came here out of excitement. We are also excited.

We feel like we are in council mode. Because we are here. Yes, that's the specialty of this room. And, but this is very exciting. It's too late to wait. Yes, I'm worried about what's next. UDO, UDO, we understand that we belong to you. But what are the things that we can do easily? What can we do? Things like that will help. Because I don't want to waste time just for doing a big project. Then if you need it, make it very clear. And I will make that point. And...

So this is an opportunity for all the topics under this general hearing.

So, do you have anything to say to the council before Wednesday or do you have any questions? This is our opportunity. We are trying to make it clear.

Yes, yes. We have not heard any opposition from many people just to think that there is a problem. Is there? The council is cooperating with the opinion of the woman, Ron. Some residents have not paid attention to this properly. They are thinking about what will happen in a minute. Yes, yes.

Do you intend to need a temporary residence? When I talk to Ayyalvasis, the main concern I have is that they have not seen enough facilities for the need of a higher standard of living, but they have not seen enough facilities for the need of a higher standard of living, so they feel that they need more solutions now. That is the situation that I understand from everywhere. And because of this, the meetings were helpful, and it would be helpful to pay more attention to the details of the city and to fulfill community wishes. I think they are not wrong in becoming unhealthy. I think they just think things are too much. Yes, there are a lot of things going on. A big discussion about underground facilities. According to the council's guidance, they have held a very large number of social events in the Legacy neighborhood in order to bring justice to the living. Therefore, it cannot be said that the living are not responsible for social events.

But I understand. Because when we think about this, we started, stopped, started again. Then Helen stopped everything. Yes. So there is a slight lack of agreement there.

Yes. Still, I am happy that we are trying to complete some of the agreements we have reached here today. So, in that regard, we are going to hear about the parking minimum. This is another issue. This is not in our hands, because the court has now removed the parking minimum. Therefore, we are doing our ordinance according to the requirements of the Constitution. I would like to point out one thing. I think this is a way to bring this to a large community. Many residential neighbourhoods in Asheville are subject to their own self-government. That's why we get a lot of emails from the people of Tekkanashville. In fact, I had sent an email to a person who sent us an email from Oak Forest today. When they examined their facilities, it was certain that there was no need to build more in a single-family home in each place. This is a very common system in subdivisions. Therefore, there are many subdivisions like the Biltmore Park in Tekka Nashville, as well as several neighborhoods with single-family home facilities. There are also many such facilities in Hawke Creek. In fact, only single-family homes in parts around the old Udumbaddy and Lake Shore in North Nashville are provided with facilities. So, even though it may seem like a big change to allow duplexes in the city, in reality, it is not a problem in many places because of the existing zoning ordinances. So, it is important for people to know that there are limits to this. So, depending on where you stand in this matter, you may or may not like it. But that is the possibility. We can talk about this better than our CET Adornik. About three years ago, there was a decree of the North Carolina Supreme Court. It stated that more than 30 years of age is impossible. But there is a disagreement only in the matter of single-family home management. A law passed by the Supreme Court of India states that if you are a non-profit organization, that is, if you are not a business sub-division, that is not a problem for you. That means even if you are a very old organization, even if there is a claim that your activities are impossible according to the Supreme Court's decision, you are not a plant community, this is an official statement, the single family home system will still stand. So, if you don't want to raise farm animals in your system, or if you don't want to raise a certain amount of milk, or if you don't want to light a fire, if you are not a plant community and have more than 30 years of experience, all that will be delayed, but the single family home system will remain. So, I think this is an attempt to make it clear to people. I have tried to do this in each case, but it takes a lot of time for a person's body to be examined and replaced. However, these local residents are assured that they will be able to understand how these changes will affect them and how they will be examined. It also creates concerns about equity compensation. Then about displacement compensation. Yes,

Okay, thanks for the interview. Let's move on to new topics. I'm going to start a discussion on new topics. One thing that wasn't there here was that we were talking about draft transit networks and their decisions throughout the summer. In the last election, we announced that these details would be returned to the council in the meeting on August 25. This has not been included in this agenda. The staff will immediately investigate the issues raised in the discussions on this. The staff will also consider the benefits of the program funding and the opportunities provided by the local authorities. So, we will try to learn more about this. The council will come up with a decision based on that information.

Also, if there are other things that the council wants the staff to investigate before discussing this issue, please let us know now or let DK know immediately. Then they can do that job. Therefore, this is an opportunity to investigate matters in greater detail.

I have been talking to many transit experts. We will continue to conduct the investigation. However, I think this is a temporary stop. I think this is a great opportunity for many of us. We need a proper public transport system. I'm sure everyone needs a bus every 15 minutes. But it shouldn't happen at the expense of some passengers. So I think this is a great opportunity. If we can help our fellow citizens to get a proper public transport system, that would be necessary. Now, this is exactly what we need. It would be a great thing, right? To say that, we have a clear, detailed, and systematic plan. Rather than just requiring a single expectation and a dream to join us, I think that it would be more popular to see and vote for those who are interested in this industry. Therefore, there is a clear plan to make this method more profitable for us to share and distribute. I am speaking as an activist, and I will immediately receive some responses. I have made this clear to the people of Jeevanakkar, but I want to make it clear once again. All our materials for the GADAKADHA program 2017, low-18, low-passport program were new. The aim was to give money to the people of Jeevanakkar to travel by bus, to help them with the city, and to provide them with more self-sufficient funding. That is why we are distributing our constitution as a solution to the problem. I have not seen that material being used by us, but they will need to be changed. I have heard people asking in the meetings with companies, especially in routes that can be cut down, why you do not need to keep the waste completely instead of waste. So I said, okay, I need you to keep the waste completely instead of waste. Also, I thought about whether I should try to contribute to the public as a passport program in places like South Ashville, where more emergency services are needed. If we don't sell our own program, I don't think we can do everything we can to find funding solutions. I know this is a small thing, but this is the skill to attract more travelers, and I think that is also a goal. And so it will be an helpful update. If we are going to use the passport program, can we make it visible, make it easy and share it?

In my opinion, the shortage of 15 minutes of service will never be satisfied. The staff surveyed the figures. We expect up to $1.5 to $3 million. So I think we need to invest even more money. But I think every $50,000 is important. Yes, definitely. That's exactly what I wanted to say. The business we talked about was paying $8,000. This will require a lot of effort. It needs to be investigated. But I don't think this will make a big difference. One thing that I understand from this is that I am generally a little disappointed. I know that no one wants to reduce the routes or affect the passengers, but our overall goal is to follow our plans, that is, to attract more passengers, to bring people from cars to public transport. So if we are determined to stop and expect to find funds, I will follow it. I still expect that we will be able to find funds. Then, when we put one step back from the Transit Master Plan, I expect a lot of people to think that it is a great goal to improve mobility. So, I expect that we will get funds when we re-organize and we will legislate in that direction. We are moving forward. We know that more mobility is needed. We need more passengers. Don't be lazy. Was all we did lazy? Definitely. That is my expectation.

I know that we will talk about this soon, but there is a proposal from the community and the transit committee to introduce a mobile ticketing system. What I learned from our residents is that those who visit our city when they go to the airport cannot get on the bus because they are not allowed to pay. Therefore, if this is a quick and cost-efficient solution, I would like to make it quick if we can get more passengers on the bus without any tender procedures or expensive equipment. Yes, thank you for your comments. The council will definitely include all this in our plan.

We can move on to the new business item on the agenda. This is a request to the manager of Ashwille CET to end the flow of the city. I will allow the Council to discuss this.

Council members, I have emailed all of you a proposal for the government. Do you think it is included in your agenda? This has been included as part of new things. Certainly. There are great concerns in the society about the use of the FLOC system. I have made some things clear in this regard. One of the differences between FLOC and other institutions that use it for public safety and law enforcement is that I can understand it from the opinions and opinions of the FLOC community. According to various media reports, each vehicle's license plate that passes through the stationary floor reader is scanned by this system. Moreover, this is a national database. I am thinking as an interpreter. It is the courts that have to decide whether such documents are in favor of the protection of public rights and privacy of the fourth century. However, I would like all of you to join me in the need of a CET Manager to end our Floke Karar by taking into account the strength of the population in the state. I would like to say more about this. I have spoken to the police officer, manager and CET attorney here about the Floke Karar in the city. We started moving from the flock in February of 2027. It started early. However, there was a discussion about whether a single flock camera should be stopped to get access to their system. That was something we had to plan. But now the flock has been moved away from them. If the entry into the cistern is to continue, there should be at least 10 flock cameras in the city. So I don't think it can be accepted in Aashwili. We continued to discuss how to remove the cameras from the flocks and how to accept them. Because cameras are not ours, the only way to get rid of them is to get rid of them. They belong to the flock, they have to get rid of them themselves. That is why the flock has to be completely eliminated. This is also required of the CET manager. Let's look at some official suggestions related to this issue. Protect the freedom of speech in research on crimes and in the use of law. An organization that investigates how to handle such data about the chief has already started its operations. This is not FLOG. If we are a step back from the FLOG system, then there will be other data that will not be involved in it. In addition, as I was required in this movement, the Civil Liberties, the Civil Liberties, the Civil Liberties, the Civil Liberties, the Civil Liberties, the Civil Liberties, the Civil Liberties, the Civil Liberties, the Civil Liberties, the Civil Liberties, the Civil Liberties, the Civil Liberties, the Civil Liberties, the Civil Liberties, the Civil Liberties, the Civil Liberties, the Civil Liberties, the Civil Liberties, the Civil Liberties, the Civil Liberties, the Civil Liberties, the Civil Liberties, the Civil Liberties, the Civil Liberties, the Civil Liberties, the Civil Liberties, the Civil Liberties, the Civil Liberties, the Civil Liberties, the Civil Liberties, the Civil Liberties, the Civil Liberties, the Civil Liberties, the Civil Liberties, the Civil Liberties, the Civil Li Facial recognition software is not being used to clarify this issue. This is not happening. Since there are constant questions from the community on this issue, they need to be informed. Therefore, I think that people will be asked questions about other forms of communication that are not used in the flow. I don't know much about this, but according to what I understand, it works differently. All the cars in our police department have dash cameras installed. The dash camera has an artificial license plate reader function. For example, all the license plates that pass through it are not checked regularly, that's different. I don't think anyone is asking for dash cameras to be removed. She plays a very important role in policing. The same goes for body cameras. They don't have license plate readers, but they are also a very useful instrument. This is a brief description of this incident. I am ready to respond to questions and accept suggestions.

I would like to complete one more translation of yours. Because I see a lot of people who don't really understand the meaning of short names, names, vendors, and so on. That's why you just said that we have eDash cams and body cams. That's why there are other softwares that can be used for APD and APD interfaces. It's not going to go without. Some people think that both of these things are connected to each other. They think that if we close this deal, the things that are going on in the world will be in trouble. But that's not the case. So I just want one thing.

I had to say this in the beginning itself. This is another problem. There are only 11 flock cameras in the city. That's all. They are all fixed. That is, they are fixed somewhere. They are not in the vehicle. They are not in the bodies of people. They are fixed somewhere. Then there are other flock cameras in this community. They are either in the headquarters of other public institutions such as the Sarvagalashala or the Sheriff's Department, or they are private individuals or private companies. We don't have any regulation on whether other groups should operate flock cameras. Our system has only 11 of them. They were established some time ago. I think many people think that we voted for the next flock cameras, but we haven't done that. They have been there for some time. But I think that Flock's expectations about cameras are growing nationally due to various reasons. I believe that some of the outside information is not right and many wrong information is being spread. This is actually causing a lot of confusion. We had a lot to learn. I know. However, I have some reasonable expectations about Flock. I think it's time to stop crying and think again and move on to another direction.

There are legal conditions. Cameras that are not related to the city or any municipality are often hacked. I would like to point out that they do not have any security rules. Like in the city, they do not have permits, ordinances, laws, regulations or VPNs. Therefore, there are countless cameras everywhere. Our 11 flocks of cameras are the only ones that we remove. Then, because of that, I am very interested in the flocks of cameras that can be hacked or needed for people who do not have safety measures. But as a city, we are doing our part. I think we are paying attention to things. I have enough hopes. Flow is always a different company. It is a startup. They have made some mistakes along the way. Like any other business, when mistakes occur, sometimes the business is lost. That's what we're doing here. I have a question to ask the chief.

Can we do it? That is, I understand that people are very anxious after this instruction given by the mayor. I agree that the expectations about the flock are increasing. But I hear people saying that all inspection methods should be avoided, especially axon, accent should be avoided. That's why I can't even think about avoiding body cameras or dash cameras. I think it is very important for the safety and well-being of the public and the employees. What is the artificial method we use for these two services? Is it an axon?

First of all, good afternoon to the Mayor and council members. Thank you. Yes, that's an axon. On the ground, all our other administrative activities.

Okay, the cameras in the car and the body cameras are excellent. Okay, because I would like to inform the public. Because I have to conduct a lot of meetings. There is an opinion that it is not enough to avoid flocking. However, I would like to convey accurate information to the public. Because the need to remove the axon is beyond a limit, I can't even think of following up on the measures to ensure our well-being. Okay, thank you. That's a helpful thing. I would like to add one more thing. I don't think so. Do you have any questions for the chief? Okay, I don't have any questions either. Thank you, chief. After a quick announcement, I thank you for coming here today. I know that we have hindered your activities this week. I think we will have to say these things again and again, right? Since there is a lot of information about this, this has to be said again. So, what I think I will say briefly is what I am saying now. I have another wish. I saw in the news that the flock got some information from the cameras in the nearby village in the Hawker community. The argument that they are not helping to solve the crimes is wrong. They are helping. I am interested in that. I am interested in the community's crimes and safety. I am following the efforts of APD to improve the safety of Ashville. That is, I understood that they wanted cameras in some areas. I wanted to make sure that we were not causing more trouble there. I understood that it was a flock of cameras in charge of a sheriff's office. So it will be there and it will not be removed. So we have to find out how to handle this together. But there is a program for the county. I was surprised to see how many self-proclaimed cameras are used in this administration. We can't control it in any way. So we can remove our 11 cameras. I thought it would be removed 10 days early and it would be there by February 1st. I am happy that they are now abolishing the safety regulations. Before we start, I have to say a few things in advance. I am happy that we are in the same opinion about the Flock Carrar because of the special shortcomings of the Flock. Iva Akluv and the Electronic Frontiers Foundation have also done a good job. So this is an important first step forward. I am grateful for it. The desire of the community is to provide and share information about companies that sell incentives for license plate traders. This is due to the lack of guarantees for the rights of the issuers. But I have some questions to ask the staff that need to be prepared for Wednesday. First, we got a memo staff from a member of the staff who helped us with our meeting regarding the Floak. I am wondering if it can be added to the notes in the CET Council meeting on Wednesday. The reason is that it is included in our meeting. Secondly, they are not removing the cameras in the cities that are under state control. Some questions have been raised about whether they will turn it on again. Therefore, I know that they have to close the cities. It seems very strange. If we are closing the flocks, I think that the staff who need to close them should be given permission. I am happy to hear that we have been given the right to speak in this meeting. We have also sent instructions to other intelligence centers and other problems creating our cameras for coordination. So we still have a few things to do. Let me make one thing clear. Is the Chiba committee working together with Aklu? That's a very good thing. Otherwise, the word committee is not the right word. But this is a committee of 8 people and 16 people. This is not clear. In the media, some are talking about who is in that committee. We don't know who is in it. We have to talk about this. In addition, you are talking about the Community Advisory Policy Committee.

This is just a method. Cheap is cooperating with ACLU and ACLU. So both are different.

However, Sudharitha is a company that grows the trust of the public. Therefore, it is very unusual for the public to include more cards in the dashboard that can be seen. I think that's the right thing to do. There is one thing that is still undecided. It is the Oxon Customer Experience Improvement Program Regs. I think it will be part of the public records application. But I haven't decided whether to put it in the dashboard or not. If it is available in the record application of the public, it is better to put it directly in the dashboard. And finally, logistics is a problem. This is a vote-up that is above the norm, so there will be opinions of the public. There was only one overflow room in the real-time intelligence center vote-up. Then there was a large crowd outside. I found out that they did not have to stand outside for hours and there was no toilet facility. We have experience in setting up more than one overflow rooms in the CET hall. I think we should be ready for that. I don't know what's going on in the Civic Hill Centre, but if they have one, we can open the sixth floor. So, the companies that receive the data, who do they share it with?

Umm, do you have any information?

We are sharing information. We have participation certificates. Okay, we have the inter-local certificates we voted for.

Other sheriff's department agencies too.

That's why the data companies that make money collect data. We have our own. Okay, let's see. For example, there used to be a closed-loop system for housing authorities. If it was clear, it could be removed. Now, it is a part of the Municipal-County Constitution. So, according to my knowledge from the CET Attorney Office, the same constitutional laws that are applicable to body cam images are also applicable to camera images. If we are getting new information, we need to share it with the Council.

Agencies just can't do anything in our system. It has to be related to a case, and we need to continue to accept it. And I think that's why security is so important. That's why we have held tours once every two weeks to come and ask people questions. That's why we have opened the doors. I have never seen a law enforcement agency open the doors for so many people to intimidate. But RTIC and FLOC are two different things. RTIC stands for Thal Samaya Emergency Activated. This is not a general inspection system. This is not an inspection system that only inspects the city of Irunnu. When there is a fire, only when someone calls 911, this becomes operational. I think this is a major difference. When we listen to people and then they start to blame Axon and our body cameras, I think the people will understand that it is what keeps everyone safe. This is what makes the public responsible, and let me remind you, if the employee goes in the wrong direction, they are also responsible. If an employee's law is not in our hands, then how can we bring them before the law? This is a violation of the law, because we are prejudiced. We don't only believe in testimonies, whether it is in the law or in the public. Instead, we have videos and evidence. That's why we hear people talking about Floki, but they don't get along well. I believe that it is important for us to share the truth with the people we represent and to give them things. If we give them things, I believe that they will value those things in the right way. But we should not come here and spread rumors. Especially at a time when everyone is very interested in this, it is the justice done to the people that affects people's mental health. That's not right.

Therefore, I have a final request to you on Thursday. I don't want to take anyone's time. I know that this is an important issue.

Everyone is interested in this issue. I am clearly trying to do the best that we can. I was not an expert. I am still not an expert. When I joined the CET Council, I didn't know anything about policing. The amount of information I know now is unbelievable. I know that there are still a lot of things to know. Whenever I ask a question, I get a very clear explanation at that time. That's why we are here. I want to make this a reality. If things can be known directly from the council itself, I think it will be beneficial to the society. If anyone has anything to say, I am not interested in removing the axon for body cams and dash cams. I am not interested in removing the axon for body cams and dash cams. I am not interested in removing the axon for body cams and dash cams. I am not interested in removing the axon for body cams and dash cams. I am not interested in removing the axon for body cams and dash cams. I am not interested in removing the axon for body cams and dash cams. I am not interested in removing the axon for body cams and dash cams. I am not interested in removing the axon for body cams and dash cams. I don't want to make a mistake by saying that we can avoid all of this easily. That's a big thing. But if you want to talk about LPRs in it, it can be a way. That's what I hear. The memo I suggested to share publicly does not say anything about body cams or dash cam images. According to our requirements, we are trying to make the flow of Aakasan's automated license plate reader facilities as correct as possible. So, this is the question I hear from the community. If we install Aakasan devices that operate in the same way as the flow of Karar-Raddha, won't we be able to continue with the rights that we are entitled to? Flokkarar is important. But instead of Aksan, the construction of the community is still a matter of interest.

What I just said is old history. Where have you been for the last 10 years? No, let's go back. I'm saying that, right?

I think this part of Aksan Karar is more interested than other parts. Aksan has started many body cams and dash cams. They are a company, aren't they? They can send Taser license plate readers to dashcams.

That's right. Councilwoman Rooney warns that if we set up auction stationery license plate readers instead of flock-style stationary license plate readers, there will be more and more security issues. So in this regard,

Yes, yes, that is, if you are establishing the same kind of constitutional law.

It is the same problem to establish it in the same place. I understand your concern. That is why, on Wednesday night, not only the Floke-Karar-Radhakuka, but also the people who are going to vote in this election, are asking questions about the rules of this kind of interpretation. We may not have reached the same kind of constitution, right? Otherwise, we can get a code law that says that this law should not be used. What I have to say is that there are a lot of things that could happen. We do not intend to immediately remove these cameras and establish a new constitutional law. But that is a matter of discussion. We definitely have to discuss it. So I think we will find it. I am sure that those who are interested in this and those who work for this will be able to decide how to handle it and how to implement it. As I mentioned in a previous video presentation, this legislative bill can be made earlier than us. It is a very simple process of submitting bills and using laws, but it is a very fast process for start-up companies to present a legislative bill. So, I think we have to reach a point where we can agree on this until the next Constitution is passed. Okay, Jade, do you think you want to take us to the next one? Of course, I can do that. Yes.

So, the inauguration of our Council Agenda in August 25 ends here. Now we are going to the 8th week of the inauguration. It's not next to me here, but we are going to start. From September, we will again start two sessions a month. Therefore, there will be no meeting on September 1. There will be a meeting on September 8. I believe that the most important thing in the consent agenda is the DER View Master Planning partner, which brings the most development in the northern part of Asheville. This is an application for the Helen Local Government Capital Grant Programme in North Badinyaran, Asheville. This is our continued effort to find funds to help in the future. The application for the ComPlan and the UDO project is still pending. This is a project that we have started, and we are certainly happy to see progress in it. Then, the Ashville CET School Foundation will be established. I believe that this is equivalent to what the Council needs to accept as the 25th Council of Bentham County. I said that we will bring an update on the Stormwater Master Plan in the reports and announcements. This was decided on Wednesday, but due to some other issues in the agenda, we changed it. We want to pay close attention to this. This is a summary of the efforts made by stormwater survivors to pay the prices of rainwater-free facilities in the city. There is no meeting on September 15. There is a regular meeting on September 22. Then there is no meeting on September 29. So the announcement of the council agenda ends here. Oh, we've got a solution. Okay. I got it. Okay. This is what I think. Yes. 20 minutes after 8 in the morning. Okay. Due to the reasons mentioned by the Mayor, I suggest that the actual CET Council be closed and move to session. 1.
