Councilwoman Blackwell

Mr. President, tell me what the Boxing Hall of Fame doesn't mean in Philadelphia. (Applause.)

Council President Clarke

Councilwoman, it means we need a bigger stage, I'll tell you. This is great.

Councilwoman Blackwell

Yes, indeed. We are honored. We want to recognize some people. I have a little list. I don't have them all because Judge Jackie Frazier-Lyde is standing right in front of me, and we are so happy to have some of those, and you let us know so that if I don't mention you, tell Lynne. She'll make sure she mentions you. Stated Meeting April 4, 2019 Witherspoon; Champion Nate Miller; boxing promoter Vernoca Michaels, Blue Horizon, we all know her; boxing writer George Hanson; even from college, Elmer Smith, former Daily News editor, who has been honored here in this Council.

Ms. Carter

And boxing writer, Ken Hissner.

Councilwoman Blackwell

All right. At the end, Mr. President, we'll ask that John DiSanto and Elmer Smith make remarks, along with Lynne, if that's all right, Mr. President.

Council President Clarke

Absolutely.

Councilwoman Blackwell

And that took a long time to narrow that down, I'm telling you. We are so honored to present this resolution recognizing and honoring Lynne Carter for her momentous induction into the Pennsylvania Boxing Hall of Fame. Stated Meeting April 4, 2019 (Applause.)

Councilwoman Blackwell

You all know this reminds me of Lucien Blackwell. Just cannot help it. Whereas, in February of 2019, Lynne Carter was inducted into the Pennsylvania Boxing Hall of Fame; and

Councilman Squilla

Whereas, a Philadelphia native, Lynne Carter has had a career in boxing for over 35 years. She was an apprentice under Commissioner James J. Binns, Executive Secretary Francis Walker, and Chief Inspector Charles Campbell. She was trained by Smokin' Joe Frazier, the former Heavyweight Champion of the World, and Carol Polis, the first female Boxing Judge in the United States, on the basics of boxing; and

Councilman Green

Whereas, in 1982, she became one of the first females to start judging in Philadelphia, and later became licensed in New Jersey. Her goal was to work in Atlantic City, even Stated Meeting April 4, 2019 that was a challenging task in a male dominated field; and

Councilwoman Parker

Whereas, during her career, Lynne has had to overcome many obstacles. Her knowledge of the sport would be questioned because of her gender. However, Lynne did not let the negativity of other people stop her ambition; and

Councilwoman Gym

Whereas, Lynne's reputation grew with time and she established herself as one of the elite judges of the sport. She was the first female to judge a fight in Connecticut. She was the first African American female to judge a fight in New Jersey. Additionally, she was the first African American female to judge for the World Boxing Association, the World Boxing Organization and the World Boxing Union; and

Councilman O'Neill

And whereas, I've been waiting almost 40 years to stand here. Stated Meeting April 4, 2019 whereas, Lynne has judged over 750 boxing matches across six different continents. She has judged many world title matches, including Johns Hopkins I, Judah-Rangel, Ademek-Gunn, Gamgoa-Solis, Ibragimov-Briggs, as well as many other non-title fights; and

Councilman Domb

Whereas, Lynne has received many awards and accolades for her work. In addition to being inducted into Pennsylvania Boxing Hall of Fame this year, in 2012, Lynne was inducted into the New Jersey Boxing Hall of Fame; and

Councilman Henon

Whereas, Lynne has crossed paths with many legends in the sport. She herself has become a legend in her own right. She has paved the road for other women to enter into the boxing arena and the boxing world. She has trained, she has assisted upcoming female apprentices in Pennsylvania and New Jersey, and she will continue to be her best and strive for Stated Meeting April 4, 2019 more; and

Councilwoman Bass

And whereas, Lynne Carter, Eighth District resident, 22nd Ward committee person; now, therefore, be it Resolved, that the Council of the City of Philadelphia, hereby recognizes and honors Lynne Carter for her momentous induction into the Pennsylvania Boxing Hall of Fame. Further resolved, that an engrossed copy of this resolution be presented to Lynne Carter as a sincere expression of the Council of the City of Philadelphia's gratitude, admiration, and recognition. Congratulations. (Applause.)

Councilwoman Blackwell

Thank you, Dr. Portay too. I see you. They come from here and far.

Council President Clarke

Councilwoman Blackwell, you want Ms. Carter to speak first or do you want the Stated Meeting April 4, 2019 individuals?

Councilwoman Blackwell

No. She wants to speak last.

Council President Clarke

Okay. Mr. Smith. MR. DiSANTO: Hello, everyone. I'm John DiSanto from the Pennsylvania Boxing Hall of Fame, and we're obviously all here to celebrate Lynne. She's truly had an historic career, more than 35 years judging, as you've heard, judging important fights all over the world, and as a result, next month, May 19th, she will be officially inducted into the Pennsylvania Boxing Hall of Fame. (Applause.) MR. DiSANTO: Lynne made it through the ballot process, and her name was on the ballot and she received the most votes in her category, which is the non-boxer category, and this is a very tough category, because boxing judges compete with managers, who compete with Stated Meeting April 4, 2019 and everyone that doesn't actually put on the gloves. So very competitive category and it's an honor very well deserved. Lynne has been at it for, as I said, more than 35 years and she's going strong. So she still got a long ways to go in this business. So anyway, so congratulations, Lynne.

Ms. Carter

Thank you. Thank you, John. (Applause.)

Mr. Smith

Thank you for this opportunity to come here and say something about my friend. Lynne and I don't see each other as much as we used to when I was still in the boxing game, but if I was to characterize her friendship in any way, I would say two words - ever and always. If she was ever your friend, she was always your friend. She's always my friend, but she is somebody who -- when I left this Stated Meeting April 4, 2019 a City Council reporter and went into sports and covered boxing, I expected that I was in the business that is not necessarily distinguished by its integrity. Lynne Carter represented real integrity. I remember when she started, I remember when Smokin' Joe was working with her and Carol, Eva Shain and others who preceded her, and I just knew from the first time I met her that she had the kind of character and integrity that would stand her in good stand in a business that was the wrath of both, to be frank about it. And she's done and been everything that I assumed that she would be. She's carried herself with dignity and distinction, and she is one of the best boxing judges that I've seen across the years. (Applause.)

Mr. Smith

Those of you who know me know that I'm a feminist, and so to some extent, what we are celebrating here is a victory for feminism over the Stated Meeting April 4, 2019 Lynne started, you weren't supposed to be doing this. This was not a job for a woman, especially a woman who did not grow up in that sort of rough and tumble world of boxing. But she comported herself so well. She's distinguished herself over the years, and I'm honored to have this chance to say a few words in her behalf. (Applause.)

Council President Clarke

And the Chair recognizes Ms. Carter for remarks.

Ms. Carter

First, I'd like to say thank you to Council President Darrell Clarke, Councilwoman Jannie Blackwell, and all members of City Council. This is such an honor. You talk about, wow, I came here with a speech. I think I forgot it. Okay? I'm so excited. I'm so excited with so many people that have come out to support me in this boxing world - my friends, my Stated Meeting April 4, 2019 family, my neighbors from Vernon House, you know, and it's just overwhelming right now. But I just want to tell you a little bit about me and how I got started. I was young. I was in my 20's and I decided I had to look for a job. So a friend of mine, we were looking for this job, and prior to that, I had gone to the fight with four brothers, okay? And I liked it, and I picked the winner of the fight. So they said, you know, wow, you're pretty good. So I said, okay, I'm pretty good at picking these winners. So since I'm looking for a job, I went up to the State Athletic Commission right out nowhere and said, listen, I want to be a judge. And they tried to discourage me a little bit, and I said, no, I want to be a judge. And so they said, well, where are you going to train? Stated Meeting April 4, 2019 to train, because I didn't know nobody in that. Okay? And so the only place I knew was Smokin' Joe Frazier's gym that was on Broad Street. So I said, okay. We took the subway up there. We went up there to Smokin' Joe Frazier's, and I walked into the secretary and I said, excuse me, but I'd like to speak to Joe Frazier. And she said, well, who is this girl coming up in here to speak to Joe Frazier? And she says, well, what is it? I said, listen, I want to be a boxing judge and I want Joe Frazier to train me. And she probably thought I was crazy. Well, Joe wouldn't come out at first, and then he did come out. And then the funny part about it was, the secretary -- Joe asked me a question about a champion, and he said, what do you think? Do you think they'll be a good champion? Stated Meeting April 4, 2019 to say yes, and she was behind him saying, no, no, no, no. So I said, no, of course not. He said, Imma train you. He said, I don't like judges, I don't like referees, and I don't like announcers, but I'm going to train you. And you know what? And that's how it started. I went to that gym religiously for three or four days a week, and it was a very, very popular gym. Everybody was coming to Joe Frazier's then. I didn't pay no attention to none of that. I came there to learn, to find out what I had to do, because I know I was breaking into a man's world. And it's truly a man's world. And he trained me. He did everything. He trained me on the basics of boxing. He made me get in the ring and put the -- act like I'm boxing with him, and he showed me all the basics. And once I did that and got my license in New Jersey, my goal was -- no; my license in Philadelphia. My goal was New Jersey. Stated Meeting April 4, 2019 in Philadelphia in three months. I was in New Jersey in September, and then it began. I was so nervous the first fight that I did. I mean, so, so nervous that it was a glass in front of me and I went to get that glass to have a drink of water. I couldn't even reach it. I could not reach that glass. I said, oh, my God. But when the bell rang, I got -you know, that was it. And then them people that came to the fight in New Jersey on the Tropicana on Tuesday night fights, they were the worst. What's that young girl know up there? What she know about boxing? I'm like, oh, my God. So that made me even nervous. I'm the only female down here. They treat me -- I got to sit downstairs and wait. I can't go up with the guys in the room.

Ms. Carter

I had to do everything separate because I was the only female and the first black female in Stated Meeting April 4, 2019 just -- it was something. Okay? But once I got started, now -- like I said, I was nervous then. Now I can walk in the room, hey, y'all. What's up? You know what I'm saying? So that meant such a difference. But I want to just say a couple of highlights that took place in my life with boxing. Boxing has been very, very good to me. Okay? It has allowed me to travel around the world to places that I would never see. You know what I'm saying? I got my favorite places I like, Japan and China and Italy and South Africa, you know. It has done this for me, and the good part is, you get paid. You know, you meet everybody, you see all these people out there, you meet some of the best people in the world, and you get paid. Okay? And another highlight was -one of my other favorite highlights is, Stated Meeting April 4, 2019 1984 I got a letter from the Philadelphia Bar Association, and they were honoring pioneers, you know, women pioneers. So I wasn't going to go to that. I was working. I wasn't going to go. I thought, well, let me go around here and get some lunch. So I didn't even invite anybody. I had two tickets. Because I'm kind of low profile. I don't really say a whole lot about what I do or whatever the case may be. Matter of fact, my family probably don't know all the stuff that took place with me. But anyway, I said, let me go around here. So I went around there, and it was all these people there from the Bar Association and the people that they were honoring. It was the first female black gynecologist, Dr. Helen Dickens. It was Mae Jemison, the first female astronaut, and it was Lynne Carter. I'm like, what? So the funny part is, all the time that I've been judging boxing, I never -- I'm low-keyed with it, so half Stated Meeting April 4, 2019 people, like I said, don't know, because I don't never talk about it, you know. I never talk about it. So I'm like nervous right now. So many -- so the other thing too was like being trained by Joe Frazier. I didn't realize that that was such a big deal, but he was such an icon, you know, and him and I got a good relationship. That's how I met Jackie and Pete and all these people in boxing. They have great people in boxing, you know. And even today, I have to say this, because we have some people that came down today from New York, Robin and Eddie and Jean Grant. They're judges and referees from New York. Okay? Bernard just texted me last night and said, Lynne, I'm not going to be able to come. I'm still in LA. Larry Hazzard was supposed to come and say a few words. He said, Lynne, we got this big fight next week I gotta get ready for, and he has to get it situated because -- Stated Meeting April 4, 2019 people was coming out, just like people today. I am so thankful for everybody that came out to support me today. Y'all have no idea how elated I am about all of this. I mean, we got a crowd up in here, don't we? )

Ms. Carter

So I won't hold you too much longer, but what I do have to say, y'all, I'm trying to say, I tried to train women and tried to say, listen, I'll teach you, because I would like to see more women. We only have nine women in the world. Okay? We have nine women in the world, and I'm thankful for being the first to be able and to do a lot of these things in all the world organizations and this and that. And now I give seminars, the whole nine yards. Who would have thought this? I never thought boxing would have brought me here. I never thought -- because my favorite sport is basketball. So I never Stated Meeting April 4, 2019 want to say thank you to everybody. Thanks for all my friends. Thanks for my family. Thanks for just everybody that came down from out of town. It is just a blessing, and I want to say thank you, Jesus. Hear me? So thank you. (Applause.)

Council President Clarke

Council will be at ease. (Council at ease.)

Council President Clarke

Thank you and, again, congratulations. At this time, the Chair recognizes Councilman Greenlee.

Councilman Greenlee

Thank you, Mr. President. Together with you, I wanted to welcome 20 students from Friends Select School. They're up in the balcony to our left here, watching our government in action. One of the fine schools in the City.

Council President Clarke

Stated Meeting April 4, 2019

Councilman Greenlee

So I wanted to recognize them. (Applause.)

Council President Clarke

Thank you for coming down. Appreciate you being here today.

Councilman Greenlee

Thank you.

Council President Clarke

The Chair recognizes Councilman Domb.

Councilman Domb

Thank you, Mr. President. For too long, Mr. President, my colleagues and I, who are loyal Philadelphia fans, have been subject to a fan among us who supports a non-Philadelphia team. Today that will change. Support our Philadelphia teams, whether it's the Phillies, the Sixers, the Eagles, the Flyers, all Philadelphia teams. So I'd like to call upon William Foster to please remove his Dallas Stated Meeting April 4, 2019 (Applause.)

Councilman Domb

And replace it with a Philadelphia sports team hat. (Applause.)

Council President Clarke

Oh, my God. (Applause.)

Council President Clarke

Thank you. Thank you. And next week you will be inducted into the Cameraman's Hall of Fame. Thank you so much. Thank you, Councilman. At this time, the Chair recognizes Councilman O'Neill.

Councilman O'Neill

Yes, Mr. President. At this time, I would like to ask for a standing moment of silence. Councilman David Oh's mother passed away on Friday. She was 98.

Council President Clarke

Thank you. Will you all please stand. (All Councilmembers, guests, Stated Meeting April 4, 2019 (Moment of silence.)

Council President Clarke

Our condolences, Councilman. Thank you. At this time, the Chair recognizes Councilman Jones, who will present a resolution recognizing Ron Wilch. Would Mr. Wilch and those accompanying him please join the Councilman at the podium. (Councilmembers and guests approached podium.)

Councilman Jones

Ladies and gentlemen, Ron Wilch, a proud resident of the Eighth Councilmanic District, once said that the suit won't make the man, but the suit will make the interview. He said, dress for the job you want, not the job you have, and taught a lot of people in this room that want to claim it how to build a wardrobe. And for a lot of people who came from inner cities where that wasn't the norm, he said -- and I'll do it in my Ron Wilch voice -- first you Stated Meeting April 4, 2019 suit. It must be red, white, and blue - white shirt, striped tie, and blue suit. And then you build your browns and then you build your stripes and then you build your wardrobe. And for me some years ago, that was a very important lesson, because I was a poor boy from West Philly and we didn't talk about those things. But Mr. Wilch and his lovely family and particularly his wife, Julie, took that concept around the world as an ambassador for the City of Philadelphia and the fashion industry. He went and traveled the world wide, from China to Chinatown, from the Far East to the Far Northeast, where he taught in prisons. He taught not only the art of tailoring, but the art of fashion and took it to a new height, all the way up to Madison Avenue from Philadelphia Prisons, from Fashion Montage, which was always in Germantown, to Boys to Bosses. And just a second to talk about that, how that Stated Meeting April 4, 2019 for a young person on their first interview was critical. You only have one chance to make a first impression. If you choose to make that impression making a statement and having clothing that is unacceptable, then that is a conscious decision, but to make sure that it wasn't an unconscious decision, and that is what I've always loved about them. And as you can see, behind me all of the people, well dressed people, here always follow Julie's and Ron Wilch, the fashion czar's, advice. So I'm here recognizing and honoring Ron Wilch and his family, who have risen to become the biggest forces in the Philadelphia fashion industry. Whereas, Philadelphia has long been a leader in the design and manufacturing of textiles and wearing apparel, with many notable Philadelphia designers making significant contributions to this industry. For the Stated Meeting April 4, 2019 20 years in Philadelphia, he has been the host of many notable fashion events, including Paris in Philadelphia, Fashion Montage, Philly Fashion Expo, and Fashion is an Art. And I'll also mention a less famous member of his family named Eve, right? Whereas

Councilwoman Bass

And whereas, Ron Wilch of the Eighth Council District has become one of the biggest forces in the Philadelphia fashion industry. He has been designing and involved in the fashion industry for over 35 years; and Whereas, in addition to creating designs for his own clothing line, Ron Wilch Collection, he operates his business, The Wardrobe Clinic, located at 1500 Walnut Street, in the heart of Center City. A few notable celebrities in his client list include Eddie Murphy, Will Smith, and Katy Perry; Stated Meeting April 4, 2019

Councilwoman Brown

Whereas, not only is Ron Wilch a fashion icon, his wife Julie, his right arm, Julie Wilch is a well-known fashion show producer and has served as a Backstage Manager for Philly Fashion Week for the past ten years. I might add, she's a fabulous model on the runway too. Her daughter, Grammy Award winning music artist Eve is admired for her profound sense of style and was the creator and driving force behind the Fetish brand. Mr. Wilch's son, Farrod Wilch, is also making a mark on the fashion industry through his private label fashion brand, Motion, businessman, making the Wilch family leaders in the Philadelphia fashion industry; and

Councilman Domb

Whereas, in 2017, Philadelphia Magazine acknowledged Ron Wilch's outstanding work in fashion at the Wardrobe Clinic, declaring him Stated Meeting April 4, 2019 "Best Tailor" in their annual Best of Philly issue; and Whereas, Mr. Wilch routinely gives back to his fashion roots by hosting a fashion networking event Fashion Night Out, which gives an opportunity for both established and emerging designers to showcase and market their brands on a larger platform. As a result of this increased exposure, employment in the manufacturing industry in Philadelphia is on the rise; now, therefore, be it

Councilman Green

Resolved, by the Council of the City of Philadelphia, that it hereby recognizes and honors Ron Wilch and his family as the "First Fashion Family of Philadelphia," for all they do to encourage the growth of Philadelphia's fashion industry. Further resolved, that an engrossed copy of this resolution be presented to Ron Wilch as evidence of the sincere admiration and respect of this Stated Meeting April 4, 2019 (Applause.)

Council President Clarke

The Chair recognizes Mr. Wilch for remarks.

Mr. Wilch

I want to thank the Council. Thank you, Council President. Thank you, Councilman Jones and Cindy Bass and all. Listen, this is such an honor. I'm very emotional right now. I want to say this: I'm born and raised in Philadelphia. I had an opportunity to leave Philadelphia many times - Chicago, St. Louis - but I stayed. When Wilson Goode was the Mayor and Philadelphia Dresses the World was building, I was a part of that first time in 1987. That year I met my wife. I won the Award for Excellence. That year later, in '92, we did Paris in Philadelphia at the Academy of Music, first show for myself and the first show for her to produce, 300 people showed up, sold-out crowd. I was honored. We had Stated Meeting April 4, 2019 charged designers. We always promote designers. We always promoted the industry, because I know. I'm born and raised in Philadelphia. I worked in Botany 500, Fishman and Tobin's, Cychek and Sons, these vacant factory buildings. I lost jobs, from job to job. I know how it feel to get laid off, doing piece work, bundle boy. But my skill and tailoring -- I want to thank my teacher who passed away, Christopher Ramsey from Thomas Edison High School. My pattern and design teacher, Michael Pedolino, who passed away, taught me pattern making. For those two men gave me the skill to dress some famous people. I'm called constantly to LA and other places to do things, but now I want to take it further. I'm 58 years old, and what I have learned, I must pass on. So we did a deal a couple days ago. Can I say this, Councilman?

Councilman Jones

Go ahead, Stated Meeting April 4, 2019

Mr. Wilch

We just did a deal. I have dedicated from this day forward to invest my time and money and equipment into public schools. We are going to do -(Applause.)

Mr. Wilch

We just did a deal with Overbrook. Overbrook, we are going to start a summer camp in May, free of charge to the kids, but the neighborhood adults is allowed to come and learn the basic sewing, how to put on buttons. You'd be surprised that people can't sew on a button today, and this is a shame. So what I have learned in my 36 years in the industry is to give it back to young people, because our young people are the driving force in the fashion industry. We must put the trades back in high school. (Applause.)

Mr. Wilch

I know quick response is want to give money, but they Stated Meeting April 4, 2019 They don't know how. So I'm going after corporate dollars. I'm going after bailed out banks who got the bailout money in 2008. I'm going after corporations who have big box stores in our neighborhood and give nothing back. I am determined to create jobs. I am determined to leave something behind. I am determined to leave a legacy. (Applause.)

Mr. Wilch

So I promised my mother in 1979 when I told her, I said, mom, I like this tailoring thing in high school, because my brother here, Sherman Wilch, Sherman, this was my example of how to dress. My father was coming and going, but he was my example how to dress. My big brother, he has the perfect closet. Sweaters was perfectly neat, shoes were -- he had shoe trees in his shoes, tailored suits, silk and wool slacks. And I asked my mother, I said, mom, I want to wear what Sherman has, and Stated Meeting April 4, 2019 said, Ma, Ronald can't wear this because this is tailor made. I'm like, why it's -- tailor made, meaning that it's made just for your specification and your size, your measurements. At that time, I was telling him that means I was too tall for his pants. But I promised my mother when I was in high school, I said, mom, if you buy me a sewing machine, you wouldn't have to buy me no clothes. And a week later in '79, she took me to 12th and Cherry, Al's Sewing Machine, a black Singer. I still have it. From that day forward, I never looked back. (Applause.)

Mr. Wilch

I like what I do. I like to look sharp. I like to teach fashion, but now I'm on another level. I'm going to teach product designing, product development, product packaging, marketing. I'm known in 50 states and four countries. I got friends around the world. Stated Meeting April 4, 2019 -- this is my mission. They want to be trained. They want a job. But I'm going to teach them self-employment, because I know in politics it's hard to create jobs out of thin air, right? You got to have budgets, you got to set law, but if I could teach you how to pin up a suit, how to take measurements, how you can show a person fabric and show them how to style and dress, you become a self-employed worker instantly. I know Macy's and department stores are looking for fitters and stylists, but most people in those department stores, they don't know how to fix you up, they don't know how to pin you up, they don't know how to take your measurements. But imagine young kids coming out of high school can measure you up, come in your office, pin up your suit, mark you for your alterations, bag it up, bring it to the factory, bring it to Overbrook, do alterations, and deliver Stated Meeting April 4, 2019 in a quality package at a reasonable price, and it's for a good cause. They not stealing. They not robbing. They looking sharp, with their pants pulled up. We got to set examples. My wife and I, we produce shows. We're going to do fundraisers for events for good causes. We're going to raise money. Imma reach out to Hollywood. Imma reach out to Eddie Murphy. I'm reaching out to Will Smith. Imma reach out to everybody I know. Put money back. Put your name, put your brand. Let us develop something for you with our kids designing it. I want young kids in high school designing new uniforms for the Police Department. We need new uniforms for the correctional officers. We need uniforms for charter schools and public schools. They should not be wearing the same old uniforms made in China. China don't pay no taxes here. (Applause.) Stated Meeting April 4, 2019

Mr. Wilch

China don't pay no taxes here. Every uniform that the public and taxpayer spend on police uniforms, correctional uniforms, sheriff uniforms, school uniforms should be made in Philadelphia. (Applause.)

Mr. Wilch

If we have contracts in Philadelphia, making uniforms for police officers and prisons, that's creating jobs overnight. All we got to do is get a vacant building and some machines. Look, I used to train blind people over in Jersey, best worker industry for the blind. I trained blind people for three years, totally blind. I taught them how to use an industrial machine, how to sew straight, how to make a part. Now they in Cherry Hill, New Jersey sewing for the government. They make a uniform, military uniform, right now. I had trained over 30 blind people. Stated Meeting April 4, 2019 the prisons for ten years for PhilaCor. I trained at Philadelphia University. I taught at Dobbins High School. I asked the question to myself, who am I? Who am I? What's my mission? My mission is train and teach and put people to work and make jobs for ourselves. Jobs, no crime. Jobs, no crime. Because if you're too tired to do a crime, you got to go to work tomorrow. So I want to thank you, my wife, thank you. Listen, I am so honored to have a wife like this woman, Julie Wilch, who has been my right arm and my left leg almost, and she helped me produce the product. I have the idea; she put it in a plan of action. She is the push button to make things go. And I thank God for my wife, my son, who just came from Atlanta. He's now in Atlanta, but he's a designer, very fashionable young man. I never force him to wear a suit, let him be himself. And of course Stated Meeting April 4, 2019 Eve, she'll be in tomorrow. She's been honored, but she can't make it. She thanks you for honoring us. She'll be here tomorrow. And, listen, all we are is Philadelphians trying to leave something behind for the next generation, for the next generation. (Applause.)

Mr. Wilch

And at my father's funeral, a year dealing with my father's funeral, I said, my father left a footprint. My job is to make the footprint even bigger. Thank you for listening. Thank you for your honor. Thank you, Councilman. You look sharp. Thank you, Councilman. Thank you so much. (Applause.)

Council President Clarke

Council will be at ease. (Council at ease.)

Councilman Johnson

We'd like to thank City Council President, City Council, and particularly Councilwoman Blackwell for this incredible honor as we celebrate our historic 125th running of the Penn Relays this month. (Applause.) Stated Meeting April 4, 2019

Mr. Johnson

I would like to thank City Council, particularly because in honoring Penn Relays, whether you realize it or not, Penn Relays exists and was created out of an idea that could have happened any place, but one of the great things about the Penn Relays has always been the nature of inclusion, particularly racial inclusion, from the outset in 1895 and the fact that this occurred in Philadelphia is what caused it to flourish. The fact that it grew up in the southernmost city that was north of the Mason-Dixon line is integral to the history of the Penn Relays. And when you honor the Penn Relays, please remember that you are honoring also the City of Philadelphia. Thank you. (Applause.)

Council President Clarke

Damaris Alvarado, commenting on 170408. (Witness approached podium.)

Council President Clarke

Good afternoon. Please just state your name for the record. Stated Meeting April 4, 2019

Ms. Alvarado

Damaris Alvarado.

Council President Clarke

Please proceed.

Ms. Alvarado

Good morning, Councilmen and Councilwomen. I'm here to testify on Bill 170408. My name is Damaris Alvarado and I'm the Executive Director of Children's Playhouse in South Philadelphia. I'm here to testify on behalf of the positive effects that the sweetened beverage tax has had on our students, families, teachers, businesses, and how it prepares children for success in primary school, possibly reducing the rate of expulsions and suspension in schools. I have been a partner with the Mayor's Office of Education in providing high-quality education through these PHL spots since they first launched in January of 2017. We opened our first new PHLpreK classroom with 20 three- to four-year-old students in January. These Stated Meeting April 4, 2019 students have never been exposed to childcare before in their lives. In six months, we were able to successfully guide and transition ten of those students into kindergarten, with the foundations they needed to succeed. In 2018 school year, we expanded our PHLpreK seats from 20 to 60 children. We have been able to fill each of those PHLpreK spots before our school year started and maintain a waiting list for families that were interested in joining our Children's Playhouse school family. Throughout the school year, it has been an honor to watch these students grow with knowledge and confidence. The Philadelphia pre-K program has helped offer these services to families who otherwise wouldn't have been able to obtain them. Most of these children were not previously enrolled in any childcare or school setting prior, and we asked the families why. Most of their responses were that childcare costs Stated Meeting April 4, 2019 too much and they couldn't afford it. Families are working paycheck to paycheck to survive and at this time having to choose between school and bills. We all know that bills will win, but that choice should never have to happen. The Philadelphia pre-K slots also allows us to offer families consistency, stipulating affordability of high-quality, developmentally appropriate classrooms. This includes children with IEPs. In most areas, especially in South Philadelphia where we are located, there's an early learning center drought in general. Now let's think about children who need support - speech therapy, physical, occupational therapy, sensory accommodation or just a quiet place to decompress. Those centers are few and far in between. Not because they want to be but because they're not able to be. The PHLpreK slots has helped us offer these services to these families as well. Stated Meeting April 4, 2019 Time is up?

Council President Clarke

Yes.

Ms. Alvarado

Okay. Thank you.

Council President Clarke

Thank you. Thank you for your testimony. (Applause.)

Chief Clerk

Melissa Blatz, commenting on 170408. (Witness approached podium.)

Council President Clarke

Good afternoon.

Ms. Blatz

Good afternoon. Good afternoon, members of City Council and attendees. My name is Melissa Blatz and I am the Executive Director of Beautiful Beginnings in District 10 and District 6. I am here to testify on Bill No. 170408, a bill that speaks to do away with suspending children in grades up to 8. Beautiful Beginnings Child Care Center is dedicated to providing a safe, healthy, educational, and fun Stated Meeting April 4, 2019 environment. We strive for exceptional childcare, setting a beautiful beginning to every child's future. Our program serves children ages six weeks to five years from the Northeast Philadelphia area. The enrollment is comprised of children from mixed economic households and multicultural backgrounds. After almost 15 years of service, we have strengthened our knowledge of our community and their needs. We understand, as most childcare development experts, that when the children thrive, families thrive. Since partnering with PHLpreK in January 2017, we have grown in our ability to provide high-quality pre-kindergarten education in very specific ways. We have furthered teachers' professional development through various coursework offered by PHLpreK. We have strengthened our curriculum training for all teaching staff and further developing their Stated Meeting April 4, 2019 implementation of creative curriculum by expanding and offering further professional development. We have also provided a plethora of resources to the children and families we serve, including preparing for kindergarten transition. In addition to these strengths and program improvements, we have been able to increase staff wages, which directly has a positive impact on staff retention and morale, ensuring that we provide the consistent care our children need. Through the expansion of PHLpreK program in the fall, we were awarded 20 additional slots at our Holmesburg location, which has allowed us to more than double our enrollment, thus the need to hire new teachers at our Frankford Avenue location. This year has been a year of growth. We currently serve 35 children and their families just through PHLpreK, in addition to 60 children in infant/toddler programming. When we were Stated Meeting April 4, 2019 awarded the additional slots through the expansion of PHLpreK, we gave opportunity to 20 children that did not have any formal education program. These children started in October, and through the support of PHLpreK, we have completed three successful referrals for children who demonstrated the need for early intervention and have partnered with outside support to implement the goals and strategies and developed a formal individual education plan which will follow them as they enter kindergarten. Particularly I want to talk about a child we served who was diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder. Once he enrolled in our program, he was expelled from three programs prior to coming to us. In the short time that we were able to provide support for his family, he gained the skills necessary to function in a typical classroom where he actually skipped kindergarten because he met all of the kindergarten milestones necessary. Stated Meeting April 4, 2019 He learned to interact with his peers, his teachers, and for a meaningful relationship.

Councilman Greenlee

Thank you. Thank you very much. (Applause.)

Chief Clerk

Len Getz, commenting on 190238. (Witness approached podium.)

Mr. Getz

Good afternoon. My name is Len Getz. I rise in strong opposition to Councilman Curtis Jones' divisive resolution condemning State Representative Stephanie Borowicz's invocation at last week's General Assembly. I do believe that someone tapped with the honor and privilege to give an invocation at a government assembly or any assembly of a mixed audience must consider that audience, the diversity of those in attendance, and frame an invocation that is non-denominational to which all can Stated Meeting April 4, 2019 relate. Government are not halls, they're not judges, they're not synagogues, they're not mosques, and they should not be turned into one. While I do believe Representative Borowicz's fell short of those attributes, there is no way it could be construed as Islamophobic. I listened to it many times. I didn't hear any negative references to Islam or Muslims. In fact, there are no references at all to Islam or Muslims. While it's surely noteworthy that the Pennsylvania House of Representatives was swearing in its first Muslim woman, not knowing this occasion, the invocation does not make that invocation Islamophobic. Representative Borowicz said she prayed that day like she does in church. And while I don't believe that's the appropriate way to pray at the Pennsylvania General Assembly, it does tell me and should tell everybody here that it was not her Stated Meeting April 4, 2019 intention to antagonize or offend freshman representative Movita Johnson Harrell. I think she would have delivered that invocation even if Ms. Johnson Harrell was not being sworn in that day. But this resolution does intend to be offensive, negative, and tends to be harmful. I read somewhere that Movita and Stephanie met by chance in the hallway and they hugged. This resolution strangles. It serves no positive purpose. It doesn't bring us together. It pushes us further apart. It doesn't serve to heal. It only serves to enlarging the wound, causing it to fester and linger. This resolution is nothing more than a mean-spirited public verbal lynching of one of your fellow Representatives who made a mistake. We all make mistakes. We're all guilty of lack of good judgment, but to respond in a public condemnation that Stated Meeting April 4, 2019 will go into the record will tarnish this assembly by showing it has no mercy and unable to forgive. I, therefore, call upon Councilman Curtis Jones to drop this resolution and spare your colleagues the embarrassment of having to vote on it. Thank you. (Applause.)

Council President Clarke

Thank you.

Chief Clerk

Joe Cox, commenting on 190238. (Witness approached podium.)

Council President Clarke

Good afternoon.

Mr. Cox

Good afternoon. My name is Joe Cox. 190238, I strongly support condemning the State Rep. What she did was disgusting. It should be condemned by every single person. No one should be in office that acts like that. 190242, I support condemning Stated Meeting April 4, 2019 the President administration for eliminating special funding for Special Olympics. Just about everything he does should be condemned. Now, 181063 is something else that should be condemned. It is 2019. Climate change is a fight for our lives. We should be using renewables, not oil. Thank you. (Applause.)

Council President Clarke

Thank you for your testimony.

Chief Clerk

Clarc King, commenting on 190239. (Witness approached podium.)

Council President Clarke

Good afternoon.

Mr. King

Good afternoon. My name is Clarc King and I hope to be on November's ballot for the position of City Council at-large. I want to make a quick comment about Resolution 181063, a bill. PGW is like NASA to the United States. PGW is Stated Meeting April 4, 2019 the source of Philadelphia's strength, and I hope that there are provisions made for an exit from this contract should the contract become an encumbrance instead of a real benefit to Philadelphia. I came up to talk about Resolution 190239, an excellent resolution, and would like to see a committee appointed to liaison with the Federal Reserve Bank. I say this because taxes have a power to kill not just businesses. I inform the Councilmembers that the IRS is employing the U.S. Mail Service, bringing notices, demanding taxes from senior citizens living on pensions and Social Security. A retired person working as a waitress to supplement her income has her tips subject to tax laws or whatever. Construction workers and other laborers, skilled and unskilled, are subject to taxes that contribute to poverty in this city. Trillions of dollars were given to Wall Street to save the looting system, a Stated Meeting April 4, 2019 crazy allocation of U.S. money and credit. Congress did nothing for the 36 million Americans who were forced out of their homes through the foreclosure process. There are only two classes of taxes - direct and indirect. Taxing someone's survival is not constitutional. Putting a worker in the state of criminality is a crime, and it occurs when authorities act under the color of law. The economy is suffering, suffocated from a lack of cash in circulation. Housing prices are too high in the City, putting terrific pressure on wages and putting terrific pressure on the family who is trying to purchase a decent standard of living. Taxes and poverty are political decisions. Taxes applied wrongly, excessively are destructive to the City's economy. Thank you very much. (Applause.) Stated Meeting April 4, 2019

Council President Clarke

Thank you for your testimony.

Chief Clerk

Tiffany Green, commenting on 190239. (Witness approached podium.)

Ms. Green

Good morning.

Council President Clarke

Good afternoon.

Ms. Green

Good afternoon is it? Okay. I came down because I do support Bill 190239, if it's going to be productive. Okay? Special Committee on Poverty Reduction and Prevention. And they're saying that it needs to be also grassroots activists on this committee, not people necessary who are running agencies or people who are not necessarily living in the community, because people -- poor communities know what they want, such as Point Breeze. In 2012, we came together and we stated that we wanted to preserve our two-story community. We came up with an actionable policy that we have put forth since 2012, Stated Meeting April 4, 2019 and because it was not in the same direction that the City officials wanted to go, at this point a poor community has had to suffer for the last six or seven years, watching their neighborhood being destroyed by three-story urban mansions. These mansions are being built in our community, busting our blocks, blocking our skyline and our view. And so recently a policy was put forth, but the language was not correct. The language was not to the point it would be protecting. So, therefore, at this point, the bill was put on hold. But if we're going to have actionable policies, then it can't be about what the City wants. It has to be about what the poor people want. And so at this point, we are officially requesting to Council President Clarke that the Bill 180973 that was requested by the poor people in Point Breeze, our homeowners and our residents, be revised, and we're asking Stated Meeting April 4, 2019 that Council come back to the table and help reintroduce this policy to preserve our community. You cannot have a special committee for poor -- to reduce poverty unless you're going to respect the poor people in the community and what we want. And so at this particular point, we are officially asking for this policy to preserve our community. We can no longer sit back and suffer. It is not right to put us on the back of the bus. We have no say when it comes to the height of these houses, and yet we sit there and developers come to zoning and say, well, it's a matter of right. Well, how does it make us feel? We're sitting on the back of the bus, not having a say. We can't say anything. I officially invite Council President Clarke and Councilman Johnson to come to our next zoning meeting so they can sit in there with us and watch developers say in our face that it is a Stated Meeting April 4, 2019 matter of right to build these urban mansions in our community, and hopefully this new committee to help reduce the poverty will also be about respecting poor people in their community. Thank you.

Council President Clarke

Thank you. (Applause.)

Chief Clerk

Grace Lewis, commenting on 170675. (Witness approached podium.)

Ms. Lewis

Good afternoon.

Council President Clarke

Good afternoon.

Ms. Lewis

My name is Grace Lewis, G-R-A-C-E, L-E-W-I-S. They can hear me. I don't want to put my mouth where everybody else put their mouth. I pay taxes. My 2019 taxes are current and paid. And I vote. I want to piggyback on some of what Tiffany said. You are allowing Stated Meeting April 4, 2019 these contractors and architects to come into our area without purveying, without surveying the residents. I live across from a new structure that has been stopped now because they have some violations. Before they were stopped, I called L&I several times. I was told that they took at least ten days from the time that I called them and they came out. They constructed whatever violations they had time to construct in those ten days. Now that monstrous, ugly, cheap building looks into my bedroom. That violates my pursuit of happiness and the privacy of my bedroom. I've been in here before and I'm going to say it again. I do not want curtains. When I walk into my bedroom, I want to see the sky, whether it's raining or sunny. I want to see the airplanes ascending and descending to and from the airport. When I lay my head down at night, I want to look at that star in the Big Dipper winking and blinking at me. Stated Meeting April 4, 2019 Because you take so long to respond to the citizens, they had time to build that. Not only did they have a stop order which was placed last Monday, last Tuesday they were inside the building. Last Wednesday they were inside the building. So Wednesday I decided to call my Councilman's office, and then the police showed up. We are not trying to stop progress in the City, but you cannot progress without the input of the citizens. We're not Indians. You're not on some unoccupied land. Again, I pay taxes and I vote. Thank you.

Council President Clarke

Thank you for your testimony, ma'am. (Applause.)

Chief Clerk

Meenal Raval, commenting on 181063. (Witness approached podium.)

Council President Clarke

Good afternoon. Stated Meeting April 4, 2019

Ms. Raval

Yes. Hi. Again, my name is Meenal Raval. I'm here today in opposition to Bill No. 181063. That's PGW's proposed LNG facility. You may have noticed that I've been here each week speaking or supporting someone speaking against this bill. Last week you heard from Abby Leedy with the Global School Strike for Climate. Some of the students from Friends Select that were here were at the Global School Strike as well. I ask you, when are you going to acknowledge the elephant in the room? I'm talking about the climate crisis, the crisis that's affecting our air and water quality, the crisis that's affecting the most poor, the black and the brown in each community, the crisis that demands that we stop planning new fossil fuel projects. I also know that most of you are up for reelection. We could support you so much wholeheartedly if you showed Stated Meeting April 4, 2019 an initiative, even some interest in solving the climate crisis. Some new at-large candidates such as Adrian Rivera-Reyes give us hope. Did you read his op-ed in the Philly Voice? How, you ask? How can you support us? How can you lead on climate? We've developed a climate action platform that my colleague Tanya Seaman has shared with each of you. You could use that document for starters. Missed that e-mail? Please see me afterwards. You could also review the testimony offered by the public at the November 29th hearing overnight of the Committee of the Environment last year. There were quite a few good ideas there. Also for starters, you could publicly state that you're against this project and that you plan to vote no on Bill 181063. Since we're given only three minutes to speak here, we've taken to the airwaves by producing our own radio show, Stated Meeting April 4, 2019 Philly Talks Climate. Last week on the show we talked about other U.S. cities making commitments to renewable energy. This week we'll talk about using less energy overall and the jobs potential from this. Again, the show is Philly Talks Climate. You can hear us on Fridays at noon on PhillyCAM's WPPN 106.5 FM. Also if you've missed the shows, you can find details and you can hear it again at Phillytalksclimate.wordpress.com. We need your leadership. Who wants to work with us? Come be our hero, please. (Applause.)

Council President Clarke

Thank you for your testimony.

Chief Clerk

Joe Danihel. (Witness approached podium.)

Council President Clarke

Good afternoon.

Mr. Danihel

Good afternoon. This is an official decree of the people Stated Meeting April 4, 2019 in writ of mandamus quo warranto and, as such, requires immediate action and remedy. Every week, Council, Mayor, Governor, and others transfer private property to the government, probably illegally. Over 200 years ago in this very city, the people created government to protect and defend their God-given rights. Secure houses, persons, and effects were contractually and constitutionally required by the people of their government. When oath of office required the people -- required before you could serve the people, there were clear penalties for refusing your sworn duty to act. Enforcement of these laws is required by those sworn to uphold, protect, and obey Constitution and laws. Why has no official been arrested for theft of my home? Why has no official been arrested for effect of my just compensation? Stated Meeting April 4, 2019 Attorney General McSwain correctly identified that failure to perform a known duty or task is illegal and causes great harm. No attorney people know this action as treason. When can the people trust their officials to respect and comply with the Constitution and laws? The constitutions require immediate remedy of this breach of law, breach of close, breach of fiduciary duty. Your oath of office requires you to act or face prison. 42 USC 1982, 1983, 1985, 1986, 1987, 18 USC 241, 242, 2381, 2384, PA Constitution, Article I, Sections 1 through 28, and 26 PA CSA 703, 705, 708, 709, 711, 712, 713, 716, 902, and other laws listed in SCOTUS 15-8965, 14-1330, 14-4056 appear violated. I call on the federal and Commonwealth governments to perform their constitutional obligations to investigate and prosecute all involved in the theft Stated Meeting April 4, 2019 and illegal deed transfer of my home, 1038 West Wyoming Avenue. The denial of God-given 42 USC 1982 property rights for 25 years is egregious, extraordinary, oath-violating, and requires immediate remedy. A just government must obey the rule of law. This color of law government must have its Charter to govern revoked until a constitutionally compliant government is installed. Public servants cannot refuse their sworn duty to act any more than a fireman can refuse to fight a fire. The sovereign people require oath, Constitution, and law be enforced, and jail is required for all who violate oath, Constitution or law. I remind Council every week for years, it takes a lot of cooperation to create and allow this monumental corruption.

Thank you. Good afternoon, Council President and colleagues. April marks Financial Literacy Month. In recognition of this month, the Federal Reserve Bank is Stated Meeting April 4, 2019 for its summer financial literacy course. Financial literacy is fundamental in education. After visiting over 50 schools this past three years, I found that teachers are excited about financial literacy and want to teach the skills within their classrooms. During my visits I often hear about the cost of the programs. Well, in celebrating of Financial Literacy Month and to ease the cost burden on teachers in the School District, the Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia will provide free registration, free training, free meals, and free course materials for Philadelphia's public high school teachers. The five-day professional development program, all free, acquaints teachers with a personal finance course that could be taught in the classroom for a semester or the entire year. The Federal Reserve Bank is providing Philadelphia teachers with an Stated Meeting April 4, 2019 opportunity, so this morning I wrote a letter to Dr. Hite challenging him to get as many teachers as possible enrolled in the free training program. Registration for teachers to sign up for the free training is open from now until May 24th. Training takes place the second week of June and allows teachers to bring financial curriculum to their classroom starting in the 2019-2020 school year. If anyone wants more information, please contact my office and we'll provide the registration link. Thank you for your support of this important initiative. Thank you, Mr. President.

Council President Clarke

Thank you, Mr. President. Mr. President, on last Saturday, we kicked off our 2019 Stated Meeting April 4, 2019 and town hall meetings in the Ninth Councilmanic District. I want to say a huge thank you to all of the residents of the Ninth who came out, and wanted to remind you all, especially those who were not able to attend that meeting, a second one is being held tonight at the West Oak Lane Senior Citizens Center -- in West Oak Lane at 7:00 p.m., but this year it's at the Saint Athanasius School hall, which is located 7105 Limekiln Pike. And to all of our seniors at the West Oak Lane Senior Center, we hope to see you there. Thank you.

Thank you, Council President. I just want to thank all my colleagues for participating this morning in our annual Light It Up Blue for Autism Speaks. April is Autism Stated Meeting April 4, 2019 son was diagnosed with autism, one out of every 200 children were diagnosed on the autism spectrum. Now it's one out of every 59 children, one out of every 37 boys, and one out of 151 girls. Through the leadership of this body and the support of this body, we have supported the Philadelphia Autism Project, which over the past four years has been able to receive about a million dollars to provide resources and information to people in the Greater Philadelphia region regarding autism. We've also been able to support 60 different community grassroot organizations that provide resources and information to communities all throughout the City of Philadelphia, and through the Philadelphia Autism website, about half of the people who have been identified on the autism spectrum in our region have been touched by that website. So the website is Phillyautismproject.org. Stated Meeting April 4, 2019 you for your support. Thank you for all those that have a learning or physical difference like autism. Thank you.

Council President Clarke

Thank you, Councilman. The Chair recognizes Councilwoman Quinones-Sanchez.

Councilwoman Sanchez

Thank you. Before we join PAL at lunch, because I do love my PAL centers in the district, I wanted to invite everyone. This morning Mayor Kenney and I were joined by Councilwomen Helen Gym, Councilwoman Blackwell, and Councilman Green launched the Philly Municipal ID program. We have the Municipal ID staff in Room 576. I want to thank my Council colleagues. I know we started this journey in 2014, and after the election of No. 45 really were concerned about how we roll out a program. The beauty about Stated Meeting April 4, 2019 you can learn and adapt best practices, and we want to thank our sister cities in New York and Chicago and others for helping inform this process. I want to encourage all of my Council colleagues as they do events and as the summer -- as they lunch this summer, to really help the City reach out to historically marginalized communities, language minority communities, our vulnerable communities, our students as students begin to work. This ID will be available to them and LGBTQ community. Part of what we purchased was mobile units, so they will be literally able to come to your community event, set up, and people can walk out of there with their material. So I want to thank all of you and particularly the Mayor and his team for putting the financial resources to make this happen. Thank you. Stated Meeting April 4, 2019

Council President Clarke

Thank you, Councilwoman. The Chair recognizes Councilman Green.

Councilman Green

Thank you, Council President. I was remiss and I was reminded by a fellow member and graduate of the University of Virginia that our Cavaliers are in the Final Four. We have an opportunity for redemption from last year's debacle. And I was reminded last year by various friends, colleagues, even a Congressman sent me a text regarding our loss last year. So hopefully the Wahoos will reign supreme this weekend and Monday. I probably just jinxed it by saying it, but thank you, Council President.
