From YouTube: Tuesday, February 25, 2020 5:30PM Planning, Economic Development and Land Use Committee
Description
The Committee reviewed Resolution 9.21.20 that approve the opt-out letter that must be approved by the State and submitted to the State with Local Law B of 2020 upon its passage.
A
Because
the
February
25th
meeting
of
the
planning
economic,
dumb
landis
committee
committee
members
present
choice,
love
tom
hollie,
judy
do--she,
alfredo
Valerie
myself,
Cathy
baby
other
council
members,
President
Richard
Conte,
prepared
to
discuss
resolution
92120,
R
and
proposed
amendments
to
that
resolution
and
that's
the
resolution
adopting
Community
Choice
segregation
program,
education
and
outreach
plan
and
customer
washed-out
letter
all
right.
Let's
see,
let's
start
with
the
resolution,
yeah
Judy
I
think
most
of
the
the
the
changes
we're
gonna.
We
were
looking
at
we're
concerns
that
you
have
raised
so
right.
A
B
A
So
we
try
to
be
more
specific,
both
in
the
resolution
and
in
the
education
outreach
plan
that
that
was
being
done
in
that
60-day
education
period.
And
let's
say
you
go
to
the
resolution.
If
you
look
at
the
second,
where,
as
you
can
see,
some
of
the
changes
that
were
made,
they
sell
a
whole
idea
and
Judy
you
talked
about.
This-
is
the
overall
goal,
the
CCA,
the
fundamental
goal,
the
CCA
education
and
outreach
is
to
enable
eligible
customers
to
make
an
informed
choice
about
their
energy
supply
options.
A
So
that's
new
language
and
then
also
added
the
city
of
Albany
is
required
to
adopt
a
community
specific
plan
for
engaging
in
public
education
outreach
and
then
we
added
to
be
completed
in
the
first
60
days.
Regarding
the
CCA
program
in
the
city
of
Albany,
among
items
to
be
discussed,
we
wanted
to
be
more
specific,
are
implementing
a
process
to
allow
as
eligible
any
eligible
customer
the
opportunity
to
opt
out,
as
well
as
a
I.
Think
we
okay,
is
that
a
new
sentence
there
Junior.
C
C
C
A
D
B
So
let
me
just
explain
a
little
bit
about
about
what
I
learned
when
I
read
the
order
and
what
I
read
the
order
has
an
appendix
D
and
what
I
read
what
I
learned
when
I
read
the
implementation
plan,
so
the
interesting
thing
about
the
order
is
the
order,
says
you're
adopting
an
implementation
plan,
a
data
protection
plan,
you're
adopting
essentially
the
municipality,
needs
to
adopt
the
local
law
correct.
So
the
order
doesn't
specifically
list
separate
and
apart
an
education
plan.
B
But
what
it
does
say
is
the
implementation
plan
needs
to
have
education
and
outreach
program.
It's
very
clear
from
reading
the
appendix
d
that
that
outreach
and
education
component,
a
main
goal
of
it,
is
to
educate
people
about
the
opt-out
component
of
it.
So
what
gets
approved
by
the
PSC,
but
it
gets
submitted
to
the
PSC,
is
the
implementation
plan.
What
our
implementation
plan
currently
has
is
a
reference
to
there
being
an
education
and
outreach
plan.
That's
appendix
I
think
it's
C.
E
E
E
B
But
when
you're
looking
at
the
plan,
if
it's
not
in
the
plan,
you
know
your
problem
along
the
plan
and
they'll
put
you
know.
So
the
question
is
so
we're
talking
about
the
implementation
plan
here.
The
implement
the
implementation
plan
has
an
appendix
mm-hmm
it
references
independent,
and
this
is
the
the
outreach
and
education
plan.
It
also
has
another.
D
E
E
D
E
Months
and
multiple
methods
have
been
used
to
reach
the
public
without
CPM,
okay,
and
so
that's
what
that's
what
this
appendix
he
is
attending
V
is
actually
your
opt
out
length
to
other
folks,
the
draft
letter
that
were
reading
it.
So
the
state
needs
to
see
all
these
specific
okay,
along
with
your
local
law
and
resolution.
B
Right
no
wait
this
moment,
so
I
need
to
I
need
to
disagree.
Respectfully,
disagree
on
a
couple
of
things,
one
the
order
says
nothing
about
sixty
days.
It
says
two
months
and
two
months
can
be
longer
than
60
days,
but
but
it
also
says
nothing
about
in
the
first
60
days
and
we're
not
talking
about
when
when
we
talk
about
the
first
60
days,
we're
not
I-
and
it's
not
clear
to
me
from
reading
the
PSC
appendix
to
their
order.
That
has
the
rules
that
we're
supposed
to
be
complying
with.
B
E
D
E
E
E
The
reason
I
handed
out
that
little
back
front
color
sheet
as
either
they
didn't
see
your
concerns,
Judy
I
just
knocked
out.
We
are
all
these.
That
is
a
fundamental
piece
of
this
program,
and
we
talk
about
that
constantly
and
if
you
look
on
the
back,
you
so
is
gonna
have
to
opt
out.
This
is
you
know
all
the
information
and
when
people
call
from
your
municipalities
narrow,
a
basic
I,
don't
want
to
do
this
program
opt
out
now
we
tell
them
what
to
do.
We
talk.
E
C
A
B
Education,
so
going
back
to
my
comments.
The
first
time
I
heard
your
presentation
on
this
and
the
concerns
I
was
raising
two
or
three
weeks
about
what
I
had
suggested
is
that
we
make
clear
in
the
education
plan
that
we
are
attaching
and
also
in
our
resolution,
that
there
will
be
additional
improvements
to
this
plan
that
must
also
be
approved
by
the
Common
Council.
A
E
B
Implementation
plan
makes
it
clear
that,
regardless
of
what
you
do,
regardless
of
what
the
PSC
tells
us
in
terms
of
approving
anything,
ultimately
it
is
our
responsibility
to
make
sure
that
whole
program
is
complying
with
a
legal
component
and
so
that
it.
That
is
one
of
my
concerns
here
is,
we
can
say,
oh
well,
make
it
do
this
and
make
it
do
that,
and
you
know
when
it
seemed
you
know
great.
But
if
something
is
missing
you
know,
so
we
do
have
a
real
oversight.
B
B
D
B
E
E
Opt-Out
that
the
stage
is
not
about
that
there
has
to
be
more
education.
So
just
like
this
time
there
has
to
be
education.
The
state
has
to
give
it
to
me
enough
before
we
can
get
the
data
to
go
to
it.
That
happens
again,
but
I
hear
the
totally
precedents
might
were
sight
to
not
remember
that.
You
would
need
to
get
another
learner
to
know
that
additional
piece.
Is
it
something
to
stay
active
later
and
then
the
other
thing
that
I
hope
this
may
be
covered
or
not.
E
E
E
E
E
B
F
H
G
A
E
E
C
E
E
E
E
A
E
B
B
A
A
Because
we
have
here
all
questions
and
concerns
should
be
addressed
to
RCC
a
liaison
NCC
administrator.
So
we've
got
that
and
that
I,
like
the
idea
of
the
last
sentence,
talking
about
the
additional
education
and
outreach.
But
what
is
that
is
that
before
the
opt
out
letter.
But
what
was
the
other
language.
E
B
A
E
A
C
D
B
B
E
A
H
I
What
I
mentioned
last
meeting
that
it
that
before
we
select
a
es
Co
that
he
goes
to
the
full
council
for
pool
and
I
see,
is
doing
a
lot
of
outreach,
but
I
don't
see
a
lot
the
Devils
in
details-
and
you
know
we
should
know
what's
in
that
contact,
we
should
be
able
to
share
that
with
our
residents.
We
should
answer
those
questions
and
we
never
see
that
contract
and
have
no
saying
that
contract
I
have
a
lot
of
concerns
about
that.
B
B
A
A
A
B
Were
similar
changes
with
a
chart,
I
suggested
explain
why
we're
providing
that
chart,
because
we
don't
talk
anything
about
the
optic
down
option
before
we
get
to
that
and
all
sudden
you're
being
presented
with
the
fix
rate.
That
will
be
the
fix
rate
that
is
earlier
in
the
letter
and
then
you're
going
to
have
this
pop
down.
So
I
suggested
the
language
that
is
there,
except
for
louise
has
commented
that
the
word
compares
should
be
changed
to
compares.
So
here
is
how
this
rate
compares
to
the
national
grid
average
price
and
to
Assisi.
Okay,.
E
I
E
G
A
G
A
A
D
G
You
insert,
after
that,
through
the
power
of
aggregation
than
in
Koran
or
pulling
closed
paren
and
partlet
in
parentheses
or
pulling
closed
parentheses
just
quit.
Segregation
I
just
wanna,
make
sure
people
understand
what
aggregation
is
and
when
this
letter
goes,
that
is
there
going
to
be
and
like
an
enclosure.
E
E
A
G
G
G
E

F
A
Your
electric
account
will
be
in
that
second
paragraph
on
the
first
page
as
an
eligible
participant,
you
can
easily
take
advantage
of
this
opportunity.
Your
electric
account
will
be
transitioned
to
a
CCA
program
unless
you
opt
out
how
about
automatically
transitioned
would
that
is
that
that
might
help.
D
E
E
E
Language
that
we,
because
they're
printing,
they
will
different
and
it
may
not
obviously
be
better
but
got
the
energy
we
want
to
prefer
that
option
if
you
want
and
what
is
the
guarantee
you'll,
be
a
guarantee
savings
on
your
actual
bread,
so
they
have
to
deserve
low-income
customers,
as
those
have
to
do
that
right
now.
So
that's
already
in
our
customers
for
heat
enroll.
But
the
point
is
that
you
have
plenty
of
or
or.
E
I
Reason
I,
like
the
guaranteed,
is
because
it
puts
the
gamble,
like
the
state
official
said
that
this
is
a
gamble.
It
puts
the
gamble
on
the
company
that
will
pay
as
customers
we're
all
going
to
be
paying
to
this
company
versus
the
consumer
and
with
25
percent
poverty
rate
in
our
city,
with
a
median
income
of
$45,000
and
more
than
50%
of
our
residents
home
pool,
meaning
that
more
than
a
percent
of
their
income
goes
on.
Housing
I
feel
comfortable
with
again
key
things.
I
E
A
E
A
I
F
A
F
I
I
A
I
I
I
C
C
Is
there
there's
a
there's,
a
desire
to
have
a
show
of
you
know
the
Common
Council
approves
this
or
doesn't
then
the
next
thing
would
be
then,
to
do
a
resolution
thereafter
saying
that
we
endorse
this
or
don't
like,
but
it
that
way
it's
on
the
record
of
that.
But
the
vocal
log
does
give
the
the
CC
oversight
or
the
delegation
of
that
and.
I
I
H
E
B
B
On
the
other
hand,
if
it
winds
up
putting
a
kibosh
because
on
the
whole
thing
or
you
know,
puts
us
in
a
disadvantageous
negotiating
or
you
know
bidding
process,
then
that
is
something
that
I
think
that
we
should
be
considering
and
okay
so
know
about,
because
the
guarantee
can
be.
You
know
one
tenth
of
a
penny
kind
of
make.
You
know
a
difference
minute
or
you
know,
or
you
know,
or
a
half
a
penny
or
something
like
that.
That
then
multiplied
times
everybody.
