Brainard asked the length of time to address the council be limited to five minutes.
Larry Hopkins, Regional Transit Authority, presented an Interlocal Funding Agreement to
provide a local match to do a major investment study of the Northeast corridor. The Regional
Transit Authority was not successful in front of the City of Indianapolis or City~County Council.
Councilor Rundle asked what the dollar amount was previously. The previous amount was
$38,250. The requested amount now is $31,250 billed in four quarterly installments to the City.
Councilor Rundle stated all funding requires an ordinance and two readings. Councilor Battreall
will contact legal department to proceed. Mr. Hopkins stated that this is a simple Interlocal
Agreement between two units, and that a resolution is not required. The agreement was not
signed.
Councilor Snyder stated that at the special council meeting on May 9, 1998, councilors discussed
whether to add a special section to the council agenda described as: "Comments to the Council".
She stated this section would help citizens get answers to questions they may have. Councilor
Battreall stated the council is not trying to limit participation of citizen input by putting a five
minute limitation on citizens who wish to address the council. An ordinance is being drawn up
at the present time to implement the "Comments to the Council" section of the agenda.
Clerk-Treasurer Cordray stopped Mayor Brainard before he announced Ordinance C-191 to
introduce a citizen who wished to address the council. Clerk-Treasurer Cordray apologized for
not providing Former Mayor Ted Johnson with a Request to Speak Card. Mr. Johnson asked the
Council to waive the five minute time limit for his presentation. Council President Battreall
stated he did not object to waiving the five minute time limit. Mr. Johnson addressed the council
and mayor regarding the settlement of the suit with the Indiana State Trooper and the NAACP
(Exhibit A).
Mayor Brainard opened the floor for any other citizen comment. No one came forward.
Mayor Brainard asked if any of the Council Members wished to comment on anything.
Councilor Battreall stated on May 4, 1998, Mrs. Roger Coma asked Council to lift the gag order
allowing the people to know the truth. Mr. Battreall believed Mrs. Corm was referring to Section
38 of Rules & Regulations, Section 26.1.1 & 26.1.2 issued by Former Chief of Police Roger
Coma on June 22, 1994 and approved by the Board of Works on the same date. Mr. Battreall
stated he believed this was an excuse to use the council meeting to demean the Mayor and refute
any blame placed on Sgt. Conn.
_C._L__&IM~: Councilor Snyder moved to approve claims inthe amounts of $286.70, $174,977.22,
$749,970.83. Councilor Rundle seconded. The council voted 6-0 to approve claims.
COMMITTEE REPORTS: No committee reports were presented.
Mayor Brainard announced Ordinance C-191. an ordinance repealing Annexation Ordinance C-
188. Councilors Walker, Battreail, Snyder and Carter spoke about annexation. Mayor Brainard
asked if any members of the public had any comments. No members of the public wished to
comment. Ordinance C-191 was approved 6-1. Councilor Walker voted no and stated that the
City should not repeal the ordinance because annexation is a good thing.
Mayor Brainard aunounced Ordinance Z-325~ an amendment to Zoning Ordinance. Section
23.0FLiS 421~Michigan Road Corridor Overlay Zone. Councilor Battreall thanked Plan
Commission Member Rick Sharp and DOCS for the time they spent answering his questions.
Mr. Sharp addressed the council regarding his meeting with Brian Tuohy, an attorney
representing land owners in the overlay zone. Mr. Sharp stated the land owners were concerned
about front yard setbacks and minimum lot size requirements. He stated the plan commission has
made or will make the appropriate amendments.
Mayor Brainard asked if anyone had any additional comments. No one commented.
Councilor Carter asked Mr. Sharp if Mr. Tuohy and his clients had received answers at the April
30th meeting with the exception of the 3 acre minimum lot size concern. Mr. Sharp stated they
had addressed the concerns and reached agreements in almost every case.
Councilor Kirby stated the ordinance would not preclude anyone from addressing the Board of
Zoning Appeals with a lot less than 3 acres, but it would give them another avenue for a
development plan. Mr. Sharp agreed with Councilor Kirby.
Councilor Rundle asked Mr. Tuohy if he agreed with the documents issued by DOCS and if he
was comfortable with them. Mr. Tuohy concurred with the changes made in the memorandum
from Steve Engelking (Exhibit B).
Councilor Rundle inquired how this ordinance would be passed to satisfy the procedural
requirements Mr. Sharp had explained. Mayor Brainard stated that the state and local laws that
govern joint plan commissions are very specific. If any changes are made to the ordinance, it
must be returned to the plan commission. If the council wishes to pass this ordinance tonight, it
must do so without any conditions. The mayor stated that the council could, immediately after
passing the ordinance, pass a resolution to request or direct the plan commission to deal with the
amendments. He stated that a separate resolution would be required for the ordinance to be valid.
Councilor Kirby stated the only other option would be to table the issue. The mayor and council
further debated the issue. Ordinance Z-325 was approved 7~0.
Mayor Brainard called for a short recess at 8:25 p.m. The council reconvened at 8:35 p.m. The
mayor turned the meeting over to Council President Battreall.

Mayor Brainard announced Ordinance D-1365-98. an ordinance making several additional
appropriations (See Page 2 of agenda for amounts and funds). Councilor Kirby stated he had
several concerns about the ordinance and was interested in hearing public input. Councilor
Snyder stated she did not like how the additional appropriations were lumped together in one
ordinance. She stated she was unsure how councilors should vote if they agreed with only some
of the appropriations in the ordinance. Mayor Brainard suggested amendments could be made.
Ordinance D-1365-98 was carried over to the next meeting.
Councilor Battreall turned the meeting back over to Mayor Brainard.
Mayor Brainard announced Resolution CC-05-18-98-012 a resolution a_nproving payment of

is not completed or moneys remain after all costs of the project are paid, all such moneys shall
return to and shall be immediately deposited in the fund from which they originated. Councilor
Battreall moved to approve the resolution. Councilor Kirby seconded. Councilor Kirby stated the

City Council meeting 5/18/98
Remarks by Ted Johnson
I want to say that I appreciate Councilman Kirby's comments at the last meeting regarding the issue of
debating those who speak to the Council. I have no intention of entering into a debate tonight because I
sincerely believe that the issue I bring to you is not debatable.
There are thousands of places I would rather be this evening. My seeking the opportunity to speak to the
Mayor and the Council is not a commonplace behavior of mine. As a matter of fact this is the first fane in
over two years I have come before you. Please don't pemeive by that absence that I have not been tempted
to do so as a reaction to a great number of negative comments you have made during the course of your
collective terms of office.
I come before you to take issue with a current matter regarding the settlement ora suit with an Indiana
State Trooper and the NAACP. The issue more specifically regarding the comments made by you Mayor
and apparently the representative of this council, Councilman Carter.
On a number of occasions one or both, the Mayor or Councilman Carter, have made statements that it was
the policy of the previous administration to stop vehicles in Carmel with youth, blacks or out of Hamiltun
County plates without provocation. It has also been stated by those same individuals, the Mayor or
Councilman Carter, the previous adminislration put into place a program of identification for a business
located in Carmel which allowed their employees the freedom of movement within Carmel.
Now let me be absolutely clear on my response to these accusations, THEY ARE LIES. You will note that
I didn't say there were misunderstandings or there is no basis for mlth or that the statements do not appear
to be factual or any other all most not tree description of their, the Mayor or Councilman Carter's,
continuing accusations regarding the policies of the previous administration on the stopping of certain
vehicles or individuals entering, within or passing through Carmel. I repeat to you tonight again, Mr.
Mayor and City Council (represented by Mr. Carter in this matter) that those statements are pure and
simple LIES.
I also say to you Mr. Mayor and Councilman Carter, the Trooper and the NAACP that my record is clear
on the treatment of other human beings. I can tell you that I serve on a Metro Board of the Methodist
Church that administers inter-city centers. I have with my wife served in Liberia on tltree different
occasions for improving educational possibilities, we contribute and participate in the Brightwood
Community Center activities to improve the youth opportunities in the Brightwood Martindales area of
Indianapolis. As Mayor of the City of Carmel I worked with many programs to provide education and
employment for youth in the inter-city of Indianapolis. I worked with Mayor Goldsmith and Carmel
employers to bring in workers from inter-city Indianapolis to fill employment opportunities. This was a
particular sensitive area in discussions with Sam Jones of the Urban League. His fear of youth coming to
Carmel was the feeling (not fact) that Carmel has always stopped such youth driving into the area without
provocation. I assured Mr. Jones as did the Chief of Police that was not the case and there was no policy
for such actions and they need not be concerned about employment in our area.
That brings us to the matter of the suit itself. It would be my guess that when the issue came up, some
twelve months afier the incident with the Trooper, the mayor assumed as many do, obviously Councilman
Carter as well, that Cannel had some policy for such actions. This was in lieu of verificatiun that the
officer whom I believe made a valid stop, had made an invalid stop. The Mayor reacted as an attorney and
made an out of court offer to settle in the amount of $75,000. Not Necessary. The Mayor and Councilman
Carter claim that an agreement with a local employer made their case impossible to defend. Not so. What
really made it hard to defend was the fact that the Mayor made an offer to settle a charge that had, in fact,
no basis. If the matter with the employer was so faultfinding why were the individuals who were involved
in those discussions not contracted by the city legal department or the insurance company? Several of
those people are still employees. With such a grand money saving Law Department one would not be out
of line to assume any such department worth its salt would have performed that very simple function. They
might have also investigated to determine if there really was such a policy. I know what they would have
found. Nothing. The City of Carmel has been had. Don't kid yourself ur the public even if the insurance
company pays the cost, of which I have some reservations, who pays the insurance company? That's easy
we do, the taxpayers.
It is not hard for me to provide evidence that you, Mr. Mayor and you Councilman Carter have slandered
the previous administration undeservingly by your LIES. Tkroughout these past two plus years you have
provided that evidence to the public by your own comments andl actions, in other matters thereby firmly
establishing your reputations for altering the truth and while I have only been the target of a few of those
alterations it positively affirms their existence. We only have togo back to all of the policemen and
fireman we were going to have to layoff if we gave a tax reduction to the public in January of 1996. An
action that the previous fiscal body approved. That action confirms what is possibly but not guaranteed to
be the fkst LIE and it certainly has not been the last.
What do I expect by coming before you this evening? When yofi, Mayor and Councilman Carter utter such
statements as you did you include a number of people who represent the "administration" that are innocent
bystanders in a drive-by shooting. People who have worked hard and long to make this community special.
Those such ~acitizens, employees and policemen. With just one careless statement you have undone their
good works. You have indicted a whole community by your actions and that is unconscionable. What I
expect fi.om you is a statement from both the Council and the Mayor admitting there is no evidence that
the previous administration practiced what both the Mayor and Councilman Carter have stated in public
and press releases. If you have evidence that such a policy existed then it would be in your best interest to
bring it out. The issue with the Carmel employer substance is not acceptable evidence as it has no
relationship to the policy statements.
The ball is now in your court. Thank you for the opportunity to practice my citizen rights.
I have submitted a copy of my presentation to the Clerk for placing into the minutes of this meeting for the
record

Dear President Battreall and Council Members,
As City Attorney, I have been instructed by the City of Carmel Cable Television Advisory
Committee to prepare and send a letter to Time Warner Cable asking it to provide justification for the
basic and tier cable television rate increases which became effective January 1, 1998. In order to comply
with jurisdictional time limits, this letter must be received by Time Warner Cable no later than May 29,
1998. 1[ prepared this letter for my signature. However, on May 13, 1998, I was informed that the Federal
Communications Commission requires this letter to be signed by the "local franchise authority" - - which
is the Common Council. Therefore, if this letter is not authorized and executed by the Coug, cil at its May
18, 1998 meeting, it cannot be sent out in time to be received by May 29, 1998. Rather than risk
jeopardizing the City's fight to seek justification for these cable rate increases, I respectfully ask that this
letter be added on, considered and executed at your May 18, 1998 meeting. Thank you for your
anticipated cooperation in this regard.
