maggie
slocum?
B
Also,
yes,
jennifer
teague,
yes,
joelle
steininger,
yes,
okay,
so
the
consent
agenda
passed
the
next
item
on
the
agenda
by
the
way,
I
don't
think
I'm
seeing
everybody.
I
just
have
a
message
here
that
says
five
others.
So
if
I
miss
somebody
or
if
somebody
raises
their
hand-
and
I
don't
see
them-
somebody
please
let
me
know.
H
Sure
I'll
give
you
all
a
quick
update
and
then
glad
to
turn
it
over
to
other
folks
at
the
city
who
have
some
info
to
share
so
point
in
time.
Count
is
behind
us,
I'm
happy
to
say
point
time:
count
happened
on
tuesday
night
went
really
well.
H
I
think
I
believe
we
shared
this
update
at
the
december
meeting,
but
this
year
we
did
the
count
a
little
bit
differently
in
that
traditionally
it's
been
the
last
wednesday
in
january
this
year
we
moved
it
to
tuesday
in
order
to
be
able
to
count
folks
at
haywood
street
on
wednesday,
since
that's
such
a
hub
of
folks
who
come
to
a
single
location,
so
we're
able
to
connect
with
people
there
so
tuesday
night
sent
teams
out
to
do
the
street
count.
H
The
other
difference
this
year
was
that
we
did
a
dedicated
youth
count,
so
that
was
a
hud
request,
hud
encouragement
this
year.
So
major
thanks
to
sarah
dickerson
at
elida
for
leading
that
process.
I
think
that
will
be
really
useful
data
to
us.
It
certainly
seems
to
me,
like
our
population
is
trending
younger
than
we
have
seen
in
the
past,
so
it'll
be
good
to
get
actual
data
around
that
we
had
48
volunteers
on
tuesday
night,
which
was
wonderful,
that's
more
than
we
had
last
year,
even
though
you
know
we
are.
H
We
are
still
in
pandemic,
so
really
great
to
have
that
level
of
community
support.
A
lot
of
those
folks
were
staff
at
homeless
service
agencies,
which
is
really
wonderful
that
they
were
able
to
do
that
in
general
that
they
were
willing
to
do
that,
but
also
really
improves,
I
think
the
quality
of
our
data
collection,
because
they're
folks,
who
have
that
expertise.
I
know
a
lot
of
people
out
in
the
community.
Already
data
are
still
coming
in,
so
it
will
be
a
bit
before
we
have
actual
data
to
share.
H
Typically,
that
report
is
due
to
hud
in
april,
and
so
we
will
continue
to
keep
you
all
updated
as
we
collect
that
data
and
process
that
through
hmis
and
have
some
reports
that
we're
able
to
share.
I
certainly
do
anticipate
an
increase
in
the
number
of
folks
who
are
unsheltered
based
on
the
data
that
I
have
back
so
far,
which
is
not
the
complete
data
set
so
we'll
again,
we'll
continue
to
keep
you
updated,
but
overall,
I
think
our
methodology
was
good.
H
C
No,
it's
just
a
really
strong,
showing
of
volunteer
support.
Again
we
would
have
had
more,
but
you
know,
day
of
people
who
either
were
covered
symptomatic
or
in
the
previous
24
hours
had
tested
positive
for
coded.
So
we
had
some
people
sort
of
fall
out
at
the
at
the
last
minute.
C
We
did
a
series
of
new
volunteer
training
sessions.
I've
scheduled
them
out
over
the
course
of
the
eight
or
nine
days
with
many
options,
so
new
volunteers
would
be
able
to
access
at
convenient
times.
We
did
have
you
know
plenty
of
new
volunteers
this
year,
but
also
you
know,
folks
that
have
been
point
in
time-
participants
many
many
times
previously,
joelle
you're
a
glutton
for
punishment.
I
know
you
could
say
you
feel
compelled
to
do
it
every
year,
so
I
feel
the
same
way.
C
So
so-
and
you
know,
as
emily
mentioned,
you
know,
teams
from
sunrise
and
va
and
abccm
and
homewoodbound
it
was.
It
was
really
really
robust.
Volunteer
support
this
year.
So
and
we've
already
got
a
list
going
to
things
that
we
know
we
need
to
do
better
next
time.
It's
always
a
work
in
progress
and
we
got
some
actually
some
great
feedback
on
a
couple
of
things
from
new
volunteers.
It's
interesting
how
a
fresh
step
and
can
bring
a
perspective
that
nobody,
even
the
old
hands,
has
really
thought
about
before.
C
So
we
got
some
great
feedback
from
a
couple
of
new
volunteers.
It's
like
yep,
that's
right
on.
We
need
to
do
that,
but
overall,
I
think
it
went
well
and
I'm
also
glad
it's
behind
us.
C
Well,
I
guess
we
can
emily
unless
there's
anything
you
want
to
add,
we
can
move
on
to
eric
and
cameron
medicare.
That's
all
right
with
you.
I
Awesome
hi,
my
name
is
cameron
henshaw,
I'm
a
performance
analyst
in
the
office
of
data
and
performance
we're
a
fairly
new
office
if
you're
not
familiar
with
us.
One
of
our
big
goals
is
to
make
it
easier
for
folks
in
the
community
to
know
what's
happening
at
the
city
as
well
as,
what's
working,
what's
not
working,
what
we're
doing
about
it,
so
a
big
emphasis
on
getting
data
and
information
out
into
the
community
in
accessible
and
understandable
ways.
J
I
I
So
I'm
going
to
share
my
screen-
and
this
is
a
bit
of
a
sneak
peek,
because
it
is
not
yet
up
on
the
website-
we're
getting
it
up
next
next
week,
but
we
wanted
to
go
ahead
and
show
you
all
there's
a
sneak
peek.
I
So
this
is
the
dashboard
that
we
have
at
the
top.
We
have
some
big
highlights
of
the
big
numbers
that
people
are
really
interested
in
the
total
number
of
people
who
are
recorded
as
homeless,
as
well
as
the
number
of
people
who
are
sheltered
versus
unsheltered
below
that
we
have
a
line
graph,
showing
the
point
in
time
count
totals
since
2010
through
2021.
I
This
graph
is
really
interesting
because
you
know,
despite
the
fact
that
asheville's
population
is
growing
and
has
grown
since
2010,
the
total
for
the
point
in
time,
counts
is
actually
has
actually
remained
pretty
much
the
same,
really
fluctuating
right
between
five
and
six
hundred.
I
I
It's
always
really
important
to
highlight
this
little
paragraph,
underneath
it
is
pointing
out
that
american
indians,
alaska,
natives,
black,
slash,
african-american
people
and
multiracial
people
are
all
over
represented
in
the
homeless
population
compared
to
their
population
in
overall
asheville.
I
So
we
wanted
to
kind
of
put
some
of
these
big
highlights
of
information
up
on
this
dashboard,
but
we
also
wanted
to
make
it
so
that
you
know
people
who
are
interested
in
looking
at
the
data
in
different
ways
would
have
a
place
where
they
were
able
to
do
that
as
well.
So
we
have
this
button
at
the
bottom.
Just
click
to
explore
all
data
and
that
doesn't
show
up
because
it's
not
the
window.
I
Let
me
share
that
real,
quick.
Oh
there
we
go,
so
this
is
a
google
sheet
that
has
the
data
broken
down
by
a
lot
of
in
a
lot
of
different
ways.
We
have
totals
age,
veteran
status,
chronically
homeless,
ethnicity,
race
and
gender,
and
each
of
these
tabs
has
a
bit
of
context
information
trying
to
help
make
the
data
more
accessible,
also
giving
a
bit
like
the
story
behind
it.
I
What
could
be
contributing
to
different
disparities,
just
more
information
to
to
ground
the
data
that
we
have
in,
so
we
really
hope
that
that
is
useful
to
people
who
want
to
take
a
a
deeper
look
into
the
point
in
time:
count:
data,
yeah
and
so
overall.
We
hope
that
this
is
a
useful
tool
for
the
community
and
we
want
to
keep
on
building
on
this
and
updating
it
as
more
data
comes
in
and
we're
really
excited
about
launching
it.
K
I
I
do
have
a
couple
of
questions.
If
you
don't
mind,
do
you
want
to
scroll
up
just
a
little
bit
to
the
chart
above
it,
and
this
is
just
a
question?
Is
the
city
planning
because
there's
additional
numbers
above
that
you
have
there
like
the
unsheltered?
Do
you
plan
to
do
any
kind
of
tracking
of
that?
Or
is
it
really
just
the
total
number
with
the
one
line,
because
I
think
it
would
be
interesting
to
see
what
the
unsheltered
looks
like
as
as
well
across
that
historical
piece?
I
Yeah,
so
I
think
some
of
the
thought
process
behind
this
dashboard
was
trying
to
get
really
the
the
kind
of
really
big
pieces
really
accessible
and
really
understandable.
We
kind
of
had
a
lot
of
choices
of
there's
a
lot
of
data
and
a
lot
of
ways
to
look
at
it
and
making
those
choices
of
what
actually
put
on
the
front
dashboard
is.
I
I
wanted
to
put
everything
at
first,
which
was
very:
it
did
not
work.
It
was
kind
of
a
mess,
so
I
think
yeah
eric
what
what
about
you?
I
feel
like
you,
yeah.
L
I
think
that's
it's
a
good
question
and
it's
always
the
by
the
way
I'm
eric
jackson,
cameron
and
I
are
together
in
the
office
of
data
and
performance.
L
There's
always
kind
of
this
balance
between
overwhelming
people
with
way
way
too
much
information
and
and
thereby
failing
to
communicate
and
and,
of
course,
not
giving
enough
information.
So
people
can't
really
figure
out
what's
going
on
so
this
was.
This
is
kind
of
the
first
step
in
making
this
information
available.
L
You
know
I
I
don't
know
exactly
where
the
quality
of
that
data
starts
to
to
go
down
a
little
bit.
That's
that's
an
emily
question,
but
again
so
between
now
and
when
we
launch
the
next
one
we're
taking
the
performance
measures
that
are
reported
annually
to
housing
and
urban
development
and
adding
to
this
and
starting
to
report
some
of
those
out
as
well,
hopefully
on
a
quarterly
basis,
and
we
can
kind
of
go
back
and
visit
and
revisit
some
of
this
and
and
figure
out
what
might
be
worth
adding.
L
C
H
L
Is
you
know,
go
play,
and
so
what
we've
really
tried
to
do
is
see
this
as
a
first
step
rather
than
a
final
final
result.
D
Thanks,
madam
chair,
this
is
a
question
for
eric
and
cameron.
What
is
your
I
know
you're
just
getting
into
this,
but
do
you
have
a
planned
distribution
for
the
the
dashboard?
Just
there
are
a
lot
of
local
and
regional
funders
who
would
be
interested
in
this
sort
of
dashboard
collapsing
of
data?
It's
really
easy
to
understand,
particularly
how
you
have
the
demographics.
So
I'm
just
curious
about
the
plan
for
sharing
it.
L
So
it
will
be.
I
don't
know
that
we-
and
this
is
something
we'd
want
to
do
together
with
emily
and
brian.
It
will
be
there'll,
be
a
press
release
going
out
next
week
and
this
will
be
embedded
on
the
homeless
initiative
page
on
the
city
website,
so
it's
available
for
anybody.
L
I
I
don't
know
that
we've
planned
a
lot
of
promotion
beyond
that,
but
would
actually
love
to
do
do
that
if
we
can
again,
I
would
want
to
let
brian
and
emily
kind
of
lead
on
on
that
piece,
but
we
would
be
delighted
to
support.
C
Yeah,
sarah,
I'm
I'm
happy
to
coordinate
with
you
and
with
our
cape
office
and
see
if
we
can
get
something
you
know
if
you've
got
a
specific
distribution
list.
You
know,
folks
that
would
be
essential
to
get
it
to
yes,
I'll
connect
with
you,
after
after
the
meeting
today
and
I'll
connect
with
our
cape
office
and
we'll
map
out
a
strategy
on
how
to
do
that.
But
I
think
it's
a
great
idea.
D
C
I
I
also
saw
your
question
in
the
chat
of
is
the
breakdown
by
race
based
on
the
2021
count
or
the
average
through
the
years,
so
that
is
based
on
the
2021
count
and
I'm
making
a
note
to
myself,
because
just
adding
that
in
the
title
would
make
that
clear.
So
that's
a
that's
a
great
point
and
I
will
I'll
make
sure
that's
that's
clear
as
well,
which
is
why
it's
great
having
many
people's
eyes
on
this
sort
of
thing.
D
Well,
thank
you
all
for
doing
it,
so
our
committee,
just
I
just-
did
some
rudimentary
math
with
those
percentages
just
with
our
equity
lens
black
or
african-american
people
identify
as
23
of
the
homeless
population,
that's
higher
than
we
estimated
last
year.
So
that's
really
important
to
know.
Thank
you.
H
Just
add
if
there
are
no
other
questions,
a
couple
things,
one
thanks
to
jen
and
sarah
for
your
input
on.
This
is
exactly
why
we
wanted
to
sort
of
preview
this
with
you
all
with
the
with
hayak
for
input
and
also,
I
want
to
say,
a
big
thanks
to
eric
and
to
cameron
who
have
worked
really
hard
on
this.
I
think
for
me,
it's
I.
H
I
know
you
guys
have
heard
me
say
this,
but
the
longer
I
met
the
city,
the
more
of
a
data
nerd
I
become,
and
so
I
am
excited
to
have
partnership
from
real
data
people
who
know
how
to
work
with
this
kind
of
thing
and
communicate
it
out
to
folks.
H
So
we
are
definitely
on
the
same
page
and
hoping
that
this
is
just
the
beginning
of
being
able
to
put
a
lot
of
information
out
on
our
website,
so
that
folks
do
have
that
as
they're
trying
to
understand
homelessness
in
our
community
and
also
trying
to
make
decisions
around
that
eric
mentioned
that
we'll
be
adding
some
other
metrics.
So
you
know
we
will
report
on
system
performance
measures
to
hud
in
the
next
couple
months
and
we
will
include
that
data.
J
H
Us
it's
the
only
comprehensive
data
set
that
we
have
about
the
homeless
population
in
our
continuum
of
care.
So
I
think
this
is
kind
of
our
anchor,
but
wanting
to
build
out
from
that,
and
so
again
just
really
appreciative
of
eric
and
cameron
for
all
of
their
work
around
this
and
just
their
interests
in
it
and
willingness
to
partner
with
us.
L
Who's
going
to
say
sort
of
back
at
you,
it
is
a
lot
of
fun
to
partner
with
with
a
division.
That
is
just
really
excited
about
getting
the
information
out
there
in
an
accessible
form.
So
it's
it's
been
fun
and
will
continue
to
be
fun.
C
And
I
I'll
I'll
add
that
eric
and
and
when
jonathan
was
in
emily's
position,
and
I
had
conversations
about
doing
exactly
this
sort
of
thing-
beginning
three
and
a
half
years
ago
so
and
they
were
probably
happening
before
that
too
eric
before
I
got
here,
and
so
this
has
been
a
long,
long
process
and
you
know
eric
and
his
team
that
finally
able
to
actually
get
it
in
the
works
and
we're.
We
are
really
excited
and
just
thankful
for
their
efforts
on
this
long
time.
Coming.
H
Thank
you.
So,
as
you
know,
we
are
continuing
a
planning
process
around
that
I'll
say
quickly
that
the
shelter
operation
at
the
ramada
currently
is
winding
down.
We
are
slated
to
be
fully
out
of
that
location
by
the
end
of
march,
so
working
really
proactively
right
now
to
get
folks
into
some
kind
of
positive
exit.
H
Beyond
that
big
picture,
we
are
partnering
with
buncombe
county
and
with
dogwood
health
trust
to
facilitate
a
community
planning
process
related
to
this,
we
are
specifically
looking
for
some
strategies
around
unsheltered
homelessness,
so
recognizing
that
folks
are
unsheltered,
because
we
don't
have
the
shelter
that
is
able
to
best
meet
their
needs
so
really
wanting
to
focus
on
a
response
to
unsheltered
homelessness.
We're
currently
drafting
an
rfp
to
identify
a
consultant
to
lead
that
process
and
to
develop
an
actionable
plan.
H
So
the
city
will
be
publishing
that
rfp
in
the
coming
weeks,
and
we
will
be
sure
to
send
that
out
to
you
all
to
the
hayek
distribution
list
when
that's
finalized.
We
definitely
intend
to
use
hayek
as
a
primary
partner
primary
resource,
both
to
gather
your
input
and
insight
and
also
to
be
able
to
share
updates
with
the
community.
H
B
Okay,
any
questions,
nothing
else.
The
next
item
is
the
human
relations
commission,
houseless
working
group
recommendations.
I
was
asked-
I
guess
at
least
two
months
ago
now
by
someone
on
the
human
relations
commission
to
present
this
to
our
group
and
ask
if
this
is
something
that
we
would
like
to
join
with
them
in
supporting.
D
I
I
was
curious.
I
just
went
back
to
my
notes
before
the
meeting
started.
Thank
you
guys
so
much
for
brian
and
emily
for
organizing
all
of
the
notes,
but
I
didn't
see
who
it
was
signed
by.
I
wasn't
sure
about
the
makeup
of
the
group.
I've
done
some
people,
but
I'm
wondering
if
anyone
can
speak
to
that
or
their
involvement
in
homelessness.
B
Well,
kim
kim
might
be
able
to
speak
to
that
better.
I
I
was
she's
the
staff
liaison
for
that
committee
as
well.
I
mean
it's,
it's
analogous
to
us,
as
I
understand
it,
with
the
city,
probably
not
with
the
county
and
it's
their.
Their
task
is
human
relations,
and
they
also
have
a
committee
which
is
directed
a
specific
subcommittee,
which
is
dealing
with
homeless
issues,
as
I
am
finding
out.
B
It
may
at
least
be
advisable
to
have
some
sort
of
communication
with
them
and
know
what
they're
doing
it
would
be
confusing.
I
think
to
have
different
city
commissions
and
committees,
making
different
recommendations
to
the
same
people
so,
and
I
think
that's
what
they
were
interested
in
was
having
us
join
in
that
we
don't
necessarily
have
to
do
that.
E
So
the
question
around
who
had
signed
on
as
members
of
the
hrca
I
do
have
that
if
that
information
is
desired,
yes,
please,
so
it
was
passed
with
a
six
to
five
vote.
It
was
signed
on
by
the
chair
of
the
hrca
tanya
rodriguez,
as
well
as
commissioners.
Malnoyas
will
overfelt
davidson
jones,
veronica,
coyte
and
suzie
chandler.
B
Okay
and
tanya
was
the
one
who
called
me.
I'm
sorry,
the
name
just
slipped
my
mind
when
when
I
started
this,
but
tanya
was
the
one
who
called
me
and
asked
to
present
it
to
this
committee.
E
As
liaison
to
that
group
and
to
this
group,
I
also
agree
that
communications
between
the
houseless
working
group
and
this
body
would
be
a
good.
B
We
can
I
mean
if
nobody
wants
to
take
action
on
this
recommendation
from
the
houseless
working
group.
We
could
appoint
somebody
or
ask
somebody
to
I
communicate
with
them.
Set
up
some
sort
of
a
liaison
is:
is
there
anybody
who
would
like
to
do
that
or
be
willing
to
do
that.
G
Interested
in
doing
so,
but
from
the
cave
department,
I
think
we
will
be
really
excited
to
try
to
help
and
ensure
this
relationship
grows.
So
we'll
be
more
than
happy
to
take
the
responsibility.
B
G
B
Okay:
okay,
we'll
do
that.
We
probably
have
to
talk
about
appointment
of
a
vice
chair
before
you
do
that.
D
I
would
like
to
excuse
me
revisit.
Oh
sorry,
I
didn't
raise
my
hand,
that's
okay!
Go
ahead!
Okay.
I
would
like
to
revisit
your
question
original
question
about
our
us.
Taking
a
position
on
this
issue.
I
mean
you
can
really
you
really
need
to.
I
personally
think
so
I
mean
this
is,
is
ongoing?
It's
really.
It
impacts
our
code.
Purple
which
is
going
to
be.
You
should
be
more
actively
involved
in
you
know.
D
At
our
december
meeting
we
were
talking
about
procedures
and
you
know
not
really
discussing
code
purple
until
jen
brought
it
up,
but
we
were
having
kind
of
some
communication
delays,
so
I
I
defer
to
the
staff.
I
don't
know
if
this
is
you
feel
you
see.
This
is
an
issue
we
need
to
really
discuss
because
we
haven't,
but
I'm
curious
about
their
feedback.
B
C
Yeah,
I
I'm
not
certainly
you
know
brought
this
to
the
attention
of
our
legal
department
since
it
involves
you
know,
potential
changes
to
ordinances
and
codes.
You
know
any
committee
is
free
to
make
any
recommendation
they
like
I.
I
would
leave
this
for
the
for
the
committee
to
decide
the
human
relations
this
particular
committee,
the
human
relations
commission.
You
know
if
there
needs
to
be
some
communication
between
members
of
hayek
and
that
body
you
know.
C
Certainly
that
might
be
a
good
first
step
before
a
more
formal
recommendation,
but
I
I
would
I
would
leave
this
to
the
to
the
to
the
committee's
wisdom
to
decide
what
action
to
take
and
just
what
process
to
follow.
From
this
point.
B
We
could
also,
apparently-
and
I
can't
say
that
I
totally
understand
this-
are
our
committees,
the
committees
that
we
had
are
no
longer
able
to
meet
because
of
coveted
restrictions
and
the
the
combination
of
the
the
coveted
restrictions
and
the
city's
need
to
the
the
need
to
give
notice
and
the
city's
procedure
for
setting
up
these
meetings
or
whatever.
But
apparently
we
can't
have
a
task
force.
B
I
can't
say
that
I'm
really
I'm
at
this
point,
I'm
not
any
more
knowledgeable
about
this
issue
than
anybody
who
reads
the
newspaper
and,
quite
frankly,
it's
been
confusing,
because
apparently
there
have
been
contradictory
reports
on
what
the
procedures
and
ordinance
also
are,
and
if
emily
is
still
here,
I
have,
and
I'm
I
mean
I've.
I've
had
heard
your
name
brought
into
this
conversation
as
somebody
who
was
responsible
for
changing
the
ordinance
or
whatever,
and
I
my
response
to
that
was
emily
is
the
person
I
would
go
to.
B
If
I
wanted
to
know
what
was
going
on,
so
I
have
found
it
very
confusing.
I
did
not
take
the
initiative
to
totally
investigate
this
by
myself
and
find
out
exactly
what
the
ordinance
is
and
what
needs
to
be
done
and
so
forth
and
so
on,
but
I
can
tell
you
there's
a
lot
of
miscommunication
going
on
out
there
and
a
lot
of
confusion
about
who's
responsible
for
what.
B
So
I
do
think
that
this
is
something
we
should
probably
have
somebody
look
into
in
a
little
more
detail
whether
we
and
I
guess
we
can
also
direct
staff
to
do
that.
Although
I
think
staff
probably
feels
like
they
have
enough
work
to
do,
but
you
know
they
may
have
enough
background
to
report
on
this
to
us.
So
sarah
has
raised
her
hand.
D
If
the
community
feels
comfortable,
maybe
our
process
can
be
we'll
follow
through
with
what
we
agreed,
that
ricardo
will
communicate
department
in
the
committee
and
then
report
back
and
I
think
also
the
realignment
of
boards
and
commissions
that's
happening.
We'll
speak
directly
to
this.
I
think
you
know
the
interface
of
committees
and
advisory
boards
having
programming
on
that
we'll
sort
of
clear
this
up
in
a
couple
months.
Hopefully,
if
we
can
move
forward
with
that.
B
Okay,
so
has
everybody
agreed
that
that
our
response
to
this
at
the
moment
is
that
we
will
ask
ricardo
to
initiate
communication
between
the
two
commissions
and
pretty
much
go
from
there?.
K
B
B
Should
we
skip
down
to
the
other
another
item,
seven
and
then
come
back
to
this
okay.
Sarah,
would
you
be
responsible
for
meeting
with
communicating
with
ricardo
and
meeting
with
okay.
H
I
just
want
to
clarify
real
quickly
that,
while
I
appreciate
perspective
that
I
have
the
power
to
change
ordinances,
that's
not
actually
accurate
and
so
staff
are
are
not
in
that
position.
Just
wanted
to
clarify
that,
and
also
to
say
that
we
appreciate
the
role
of
advisory
committees.
That's
the
the
function
of
advisory
committees
is
to
help
advise
policy
and
provide
input
to
our
policy
makers,
who
are
elected
officials,
and
this
is
of
course,
a
joint
committee
between
the
city
and
the
county,
so
both
city
council
and
county
commission.
H
So
I
think
the
the
process
that
you
just
my
two
cents
is
the
process
that
you've
outlined
is
right
on.
I
think
that's,
that's
really
effective
and
again
just
want
to
clarify
that
I'm
okay.
K
B
Did
tell
everyone
who
brought
that
up
that
I
didn't
think
you
had
the
power
or
even
would
do
that
if
you
did,
but
I
I
think
it
just
shows
the
confusion
that
has
arisen
around
that
issue
and
a
lot
of
people
called
me
to
express
what
they
thought
about
it.
B
Okay,
so
we'll
go
on
now
to
the
code
purple
steering
committee.
K
I'm
sorry
eileen.
I
had
one
other
comment
and
maybe
this
is
for
a
future
conversation
but
sarah.
If
you're
going
to
be
our
liaison
with
the
other
committee.
I
also
just
wonder
because
I
did
look,
do
a
deeper
dive,
reviewed
the
ordinances
and
when
I
read
what
was
submitted
to
us
for
a
conversation,
I
just
didn't
see
any
additional
like
suggested
alternative
or
option,
and
I
just
wonder
if
there's
some
opportunity
for
some
conversation
around
that
to
you.
So
not
just
a
removal
but
also
recommending
kind
of
another
step,
and
maybe
there's
not.
K
Maybe
we
don't
have
any
suggestions
or
comments,
but
just
kind
of
thinking
about
that
next
step.
Piece
and
I
don't
know
how
you
feel
about
that
or
if
you
think
that's
appropriate.
D
Definitely
do
you
think
that
that
would
I
think
that
would
result
from
our
committees
having
conversations
also,
you
know
in
developing
a
mutual
agenda,
we
can
all
participate
in
that,
at
least,
I
would
hope.
B
Okay,
the
next
item
on
the
agenda
is
the
code.
Purple
steering
committee
is
that
dan
dan
pisso.
M
So
I
just
wanted
to
thank
you
for
this
opportunity
to
give
some
time
to
ask
you
to
hear
about
what's
been
happening
and
I'd
like
to
ground
us
in
something
that
I've
read
recently
that
I
think
is
worth
sharing
and
I
want
to
give
full
credit
to
another
preacher,
sister,
barbara
brown,
taylor,
who
brought
this
into
my
world
view
and
she's
quoting
from
another
book,
and
it's
all
about
beauty
and
justice,
which
I
have
never
heard
the
two
combined
together
and
I'm
experiencing
that
in
our
space
at
587
haywood
road.
M
The
first
premise
of
this
book
is
that
beauty
prompts
a
copy
of
itself.
When
we
see
something
beautiful,
we
want
to
snap
a
picture
of
it.
If
we're
artistic,
we
might
want
to
paint
a
picture
of
it
or
write
a
song
about
it,
or
we
definitely
want
to
share.
You
will
not
believe
what
I
saw.
This
was
absolutely
beautiful
makes
you
want
to
replicate
it.
M
M
M
The
poet
wendell
berry
wrote
that
there
are
no
unsacred
places,
there
are
only
sacred
places
and
desecrated
places,
and
it's
been
my
experience
in
conversations
over
the
last
six
weeks
with
some
of
my
unhoused
neighbors,
that
it
is.
It
is
not
good
to
not
have
a
roof
over
your
head,
but
that
does
not
mean
that
you
are
not
of
sacred
word,
and
so
this
beauty
has
continued
to
replicate
itself
in
ways
that
are
funny
to
me.
M
M
The
second
premise
is
that
beauty
is
capable
of
moving
us
to
do
the
hard
work
of
repair.
She
says
barbara
brown,
taylor.
That
is
because,
once
you
have
been
touched
so
deeply
by
this
beauty,
whether
it's
in
a
flower
or
it's
in
a
human
face,
it's
difficult
to
resist,
engaging
it's
difficult
to
resist,
engaging
in
the
kind
of
justice
that
clears
the
way
for
more
beauty
to
happen.
M
M
It
moves
us
to
do
this
hard
work
of
repair,
and
my
sister
preacher
gave
this
beautiful
analogy
that
we
may
see
the
first
daffodil
that
comes
up
in
the
spring
in
our
yard
and
it's
beautiful
and
that's
great.
If
you
happen
to
see
that
beauty
show
up,
let's
say
amongst
a
burnt
area
and
it
is
rising
up
among
the
ashes.
It's
also
another
kind
of
beauty
to
give
witness
to,
and
that's
what
prompts
us
to
go.
M
That
is
that
that's
the
picture
that
I
have
seen
happening
around
tables
conversation
with
other
mutual
aid
groups
and
service
providers.
That
has
been
happening
in
what
we
have
called
the
winter
shelter
steering
committee,
which
is
really
just
a
fancy
way
of
saying.
We've
asked
people
informally
to
come
together
so
that
we
can
have
better
conversation
around
providing
for
our
sisters
and
brothers.
M
F
M
Other
people
think
it's
about
you.
You
wouldn't
always
think
about
you,
which
was
this
crazy,
convoluted
way
of
saying
it's
not
about
you
nancy.
So
it
has
this
beautiful
power
of
de-centering
unselfing,
as
it's
called.
That
also
is
what's
happening
around
the
tables
of
conversation
at
the
winter
shelter
steering
committee.
Where
we're
saying
hey,
how
can
we
get
the
word
out
better
and
then
somebody
came
up
with
this
great
idea
of
we
could
put
notice
on
the
neon
sign
at
the
civic
center.
Hey
it's
code
purple
today.
M
In
case
you
didn't
know
just
beautiful,
simple
answers
like
that
and
then
sometimes
an
acknowledgement
that
there
is
no
simple
answer
and
we've
got
to
keep
doing
that
work
of
repair
to
try
to
keep
finding
another
more
just
answer
what
I
also
want
to
acknowledge
that
I
had
no
idea
because
I'm
coming
at
this
from
another
direction,
but
my
sisters
and
brothers
who
have
been
around
these
tables,
who
have
been
doing
this
work
for
decades,
have
said
the
conversation
has
shifted
this
year.
M
I
could
give
lots
of
reasons
why
I
think
that
is.
I'm
sure
you
all
around
these
boxes
could
also
give
that,
but
I
just
simply
am
asking
us
to
acknowledge
something
has
shifted
in
the
conversation,
and
I
am,
in
my
words,
my
faith
vocabulary.
I
am
praying
that
we
don't
lose
sight
of
that.
I
think
part
of
what
is
at
play
is
that
the
power
of
de-centering
has
happened.
We
noticed
how
beautiful
it
is,
how
much
easier
it
is
to
do
the
work
of
justice
and
see
these
beautiful
sacred
moments
and
spaces
rise
up.
M
J
It's
my
pleasure.
Thank
you,
nancy
that
was
really
powerful,
so
I'm
just
going
to
share
my
screen
and
yeah.
I
think
what
prompted
me
to
kind
of
try
and
put
this
together
in
kind
of
a
diagram
was
this
curiosity
about
this
emergent
and
different
kind
of
network
that
is
developing
and
nancy
did
such
a
good
job
of
kind
of
explaining
it.
J
So
what
I
did
is
I
used
a
little
bit
of
data
from
our
signing
logs
over
the
last
three
sessions
that
we've
met
as
a
steering
committee
kind
of
doing
this
de-centering
work
and
this
work
difficult
work
of
repair
and
using
that
data.
I
I
created
a
diagram
in
three
different
diagrams
to
show
kind
of
how
we're
emerging
and
growing
in
a
different
kind
of
way
in
it
with
a
shift,
and
so,
if
you
see
here
on
the
screen,
I'm
not
sure
if
you
can
see
my
the
mouse.
J
The
purple
elements
are
individuals
that
are
attending
and
I've
I've.
The
bigger
the
element
is
the
kind
of
more
decision
making
power
and
traditional
sense
that
individual
has
and
they're
linked
to
their
organization
and
what
I've
done
to
kind
of
flip
the
script
a
little
bit
is.
J
I've
made
the
biggest
elements
of
bull's-eyed
them,
they're
people
with
lived
experience,
so
they
might
be
guests
that
are
staying
at
the
at
the
code
purple
or
they
may
be
unhoused
guests
that
are
staying
in
other
shelters
around
town
and
what
we
want
to
do
is
make
sure
that
they're,
centered
and
elevated
in
our
approach-
and
I
think
that
is
part
of
the
shift
that
we're
seeing
so
here
you
see-
you
know
in
in
green
and
non-profits
and
in
blue.
J
It's
kind
of
government
agency
and
churches
are
in
red,
but
as
we
move
to
kind
of
two
weeks
down
the
line,
this
work
is
really
attracting
this
emergency
action
really
is
attracting
different
scopes.
Different
areas
of
expertise,
different
kind
of
nooks
and
crannies
of
our
community
are
coming
out
of
the
woodwork,
because
this
is
attractive
work
and
there
has
been
a
shift.
You
know
we're
moving
from.
J
You
know
the
classic
competitive
siloed
work
into
finding
solutions
together
and
centering
and
elevating
the
voices
of
those
that
we're
serving,
and
so
here
you
know
you
see
that
you
know
elected
officials,
that's
you
kim
roney
were
there
on
in
that
session,
and
so
we're
we're
we're
starting
to
to
kind
of
grow,
and
this
is
our
last
one,
and
I
I
won't
pause
too
much
after
that,
but
you
can
see
that
it's
really
growing
and
another
thing
that
I've
done
is
that
the
those
that
have
attended
kind
of
the
most
meetings
are
closer
to
kind
of
the
center
of
of
this
work,
and
so
we're
just
really
excited
to
kind
of
see
it
continue
to
grow
and
us
continuing
to
keep
that
shift
towards
the
work
itself,
rather
than
all
the
general
things
that
can
seep
in
which
is
the
centering
of
ourselves
as
nancy
put
it
so
well.
J
I
think
this
is
just
really
difficult
to
kind
of
put
into
words,
those
of
you
that
have
participated
and
those
of
us
that
are
participating.
I
feel
part
of
something
almost
much
greater
than
we've
seen
before.
So,
thanks
for
letting
me
share
those
those
kind
of
diagrams.
M
Finally,
I
want
to
give
credit
to
my
sister
amy
cantrell,
who,
in
one
of
these
conversations,
talked
about
the
beauty
of
what's
happening
in
a
musical
term
and
she
called
it
a
chorus
of
mutuality,
and
it
has
been
a
court
truly,
of
course,
because
voices
have
been
given
opportunity
to
speak
to
sing.
M
Is
included
people
that
we
are
serving
alongside
the
people
that
are
being
kept
at
the
center?
Hopefully,
so
I
first
wanted
to
say
that
trinity's
winter
shelter
started
thanksgiving
night
before
code
purple
could
happen.
I
was
out
of
town,
I
wasn't
even
around
dan
called
trinity
church.
M
Proper
code
purple
then
opened
up
december
1st.
We
realized
there
are
some
critical
gaps.
We
asked
others
into
conversation
with
us
to
name
critical
gaps
so
trinity,
specifically
to
the
code
purple
winter
shelter
model,
is
offering
space
for
people
that
don't
fit
into
the
single
men's
model,
the
single
women's
model
or
we
offer
overflow.
M
We
offer
safe
and
brave
space
for
folks
in
the
lgbtq
community,
folks
that
have
animals
with
them.
Families
that
do
not
want
to
be
divided
up,
and
I
wanted
to
give
just
a
few
quick
narratives
and
then
have
some
time
for
q.
A
first
of
all,
though
I
wanted
to
say
some
of
those
folks
have
become
part
of
the
team
that
continue
to
serve
and
that's
the
beauty
of
their
witness
again.
M
M
I
know
that
there
has
been
a
reuniting
of
a
family,
and
that
happened
at
the
thanksgiving
model
where
the
dad
had
not
been
in
the
picture,
and
they
happened
to
meet
up
in
the
fellowship
hall.
Again.
That's
that
reversal
of
sanctuary
space
becoming
and
happening
downstairs
in
our
fellowship
hall,
and
that
truly
was
a
holy
moment.
M
M
M
We
have
had
at
least
five
people
be
able
to
get
into
rehab
programs
and
that
I'm
learning
and
I
know,
there's
much
more
wisdom
around
the
table.
I
I
didn't
quite
realize
how
messy
that
is.
That
is
messy
work
and
it
is
happening.
M
I
guess
the
final
part
of
the
course
of
mutuality
that
I
want
to
name
is
inviting
this
group
into
holding
the
community
accountable
and
if
you
will
allow
us
to
also
come
back
and
speak
into
your
space,
how
we
can
move
forward
to
plan
for
next
year,
because
the
conversations
are
happening.
I
am
really
hoping
that
we
can,
with
your
support,
have
this
conversation
much
sooner
in
the
year.
M
I
want
to
first
of
all
say
it
doesn't
matter
to
me
where
it
happens,
whether
it's
trinity,
whether
it's
trinity
helping
another
community,
set
up
their
space
to
do
it.
That's
not
the
point.
The
point
is,
I
think,
we're
realizing
beautiful
things
happen
when
we're
really
when
we're
willing
to
keep
the
main
thing.
The
main
thing
keep
the
folks
we're
serving
at
the
center
and
have
this
beautiful
singing
around
it,
and
course
of
mutuality
and
messiness
and
dog
crates
and
fellowship
halls
and
church
parlor
furniture
getting
moved
way
far
away
from
the
church
parlor.
M
I
am
very
grateful
for
the
collaboration
between
I
love.
The
wendell
berry
quote,
because
I
also
don't
believe
that
they're
secular
and
that
they're
sacred,
I
just
believe,
it's
all
beautiful
and
I
want
to
keep
inviting
that
beauty
into
spaces
across
our
city
and
across
our
county.
So
please
help
us
keep
moving
the
conversation
forward,
because
the
job
is
too
hard
for
us
to
keep
staying
in
our
own
spaces
and
doing
it.
M
So
without
being
said,
I'd
be
welcome
to
entertain
any
questions
that
you
might
have
of
us
of
dan
or
me
of
the
slides
anything.
B
C
Yeah,
first
of
all,
nancy
and
dan.
Thank
you
for
taking
time
and
joining
us
today.
I,
I
think,
there's
a
lot
to
say
about
what
you're
doing
there,
but
it
is
often
the
gift
that
that
absolutely
radical
hospitality
that
I
think
institutional
church
has
just
forgotten
to
do,
and
the
fact
that
you
are
doing
it
and
you're
seeing
sort
of
the
same
space
within
your
four
walls.
Kind
of
get
flipped
upside
down.
C
One
time
that
the
faith
community
in
any
city,
certainly
in
asheville,
is
one
of
the
single
one
largest
untapped
resources
that
we
have,
and
so
I
am
grateful
to
you
for
you
stepping
out
on
a
limb
and
doing
this,
and
just
I
haven't,
had
an
opportunity
to
get
out
there
and
witness
it
firsthand,
but
I
will-
and
just
I
just
wanted
to
offer
my
thanks
for
you
guys
taking
the
risk
and
doing
it
and
anything
that
I
personally
can
do
to
help
encourage
other
faith
communities
to
do
the
same
thing
I
I
personally
am
committed
to
seeing
that
happen.
B
B
M
I
wanted
to
say
thank
you
because
I
was
coming
today
with
another
ask,
but
it's
already
happened,
which
was
some
of
our
guests,
had
asked
for
the
potential
to
extend
free
bus
transportation
to
and
from
the
shelters
that
just
happened.
Thank
you,
brian.
I'm
assuming
you
were
part
of
that
conversation
and
whoever
else
was
I'm.
M
So,
thank
you
very
much
and
if
you
all
have
things
that
we
can
be
working
on,
our
our
lines
are
open
and
we're
learning
we're
not
super
great
at
this,
but
I
I
don't
want
to
miss
out
when
I
have
long-term
people
coming
and
telling
me
things
are
different
now,
because
of
the
way
the
conversation
is
so
help
hold
us
to
that.
B
Yes,
oops.
Okay!
Thank
you.
Yes
thank
you
again
and
we're
all
impressed
with
everything
that
you've
been
doing
and
thankful
for
your
hard
work.
Next
item
on
the
agenda.
Joelle
has
raised
a
hand,
I'm
sorry
joelle.
Oh.
F
H
Yes,
thank
you
I'll
echo
that
obviously
these
guys
have
been
really
wonderful
to
work
with,
and
it's
really
exciting
to
have
an
expanded
conversation
in
our
community.
The
last
couple
years
code
purple
has
been
like
me
alone,
panicked,
calling
people
and
asking
them
to
do
things,
and
so
it's
really
exciting
to
have
this
new
kind
of
community
participation
and
that
that
has
been
great.
I
wanted
to
just
give
you
all
a
very
quick
overview
of
current
code
purple
status
so
that
you're
familiar
with
what's
happening
across
our
community.
H
So,
first
of
all,
there
are
several
partners,
including
trinity,
who
are
working
towards
being
open
nightly,
so
not
not
specific
to
the
temperature
being
32
or
below,
but
being
open
nightly
for
the
remainder
of
the
winter.
H
I
do
feel
really
comfortable
that
we
have
right
size
capacity
this
winter,
based
on
the
data
that
we
have
so
we
have
had
beds
available
every
night.
I
think
I've
been
getting
regular
data
updates
from
salvation
army
and
abccm
as
well
as
trinity,
and
I
feel
confident
that
we
do
have
the
capacity
for
folks
who
need
shelter
and
are
able
to
come
into
those
spaces,
and
just
a
lot
of
partnership
and
coordination
has
been
going
on.
Among
all
three
of
those
locations.
H
Trinity
is
working
really
hard
to
specifically
fill
a
gap
and
not
duplicate,
what's
happening
in
other
locations,
so
being
a
really
good
partner
to
those
other
folks,
and
just
a
lot
of
community-wide
coordination,
apd
is
giving
rides
to
people
to
get
to
shelter,
but
I
think
there's
just
a
good
kind
of
energy
around
what's
happening
and
again
just
wanted
to
give
you
the
update
that
I
do
think
we
have
good
capacity
going
forward.
B
So,
thank
you
again.
The
next
item
on
the
agenda
is
the
appointment
of
a
vice
chair.
At
our
last
meeting,
sarah
copely
was
nominated
to
be
vice
chair.
She
was
not
there
to
accept
or
reject,
so
I
don't
think
sarah.
Would
you
accept
that
appointment.
B
Okay,
right
now
does
that
I
guess
that
requires
a
vote.
C
It's
a
motion,
second,
in
a
boat
and
and
that
after
that
takes
place,
I
have
a
couple
of
updates:
okay
membership.
So.
K
C
Yeah,
so
my
initial
conversation
and
following
up
after
last
month's
meeting,
was
that
sarah
might
be
interested
in
serving
as
as
the
chair
and
sarah
made
some
efforts
to
see.
C
If
that
could
happen,
and
because
of
the
nature
of
her
position,
I
I
don't
want
to
speak
for
you,
sarah,
but
it
was
determined
that
it
would
be
more
appropriate
for
you
to
serve
as
a
as
a
as
a
vice
chair
and
a
stand-in
until
we
can
figure
out
a
new
structure
of
membership
identify
a
permanent
chair,
and
so
we
needed
somebody
to
be
able
to
run
the
business
of
the
meetings
and
in
the
existing
bylaws.
C
C
You
know
chair
for
that
particular
a
meeting,
so
she
has
graciously
agreed
to
step
into
the
vice
chairs
role,
as
we
think,
rethink,
structure,
membership
and
so
forth
and
and
help
us
carry
on
the
regular
business
of
the
of
the
committee.
So.
D
Yes
and
that's
accurate
and
just
to
my
job
here,
the
foundation
was
just
concerned
that,
as
the
chair,
I
would
be
making
directing
more
funds
and
a.
We
have
an
equity
initiative
that,
when
we're
in
leadership
roles
that
we
don't
exclude,
particularly
because
we
do
invest
a
lot
of
funds
in
safe
housing.
So
it's
really
just
so
that
we
can
continue
to
work
with
the
same
partners
and
increase
those
partners
and
and
not
unintentionally,
way
towards
certain
initiatives.
Just
because
it's
an
issue
of
the
high
act,
because
that
makes
sense.
D
J
K
Not
interested
in
serving
in
chair
as
chair,
but
I
appreciate
the
clarity
around
the
vice
chair,
comment
and
kind
of
getting
us
through
the
next
couple
of
months
as
we
have
conversations
around
structure.
So
I
I
wholeheartedly
support
sarah
as
the
foster
carer.
B
C
Had
I
didn't
get
you
the
second
one.
F
C
B
Okay,
I'm
going
to
call
the
roll.
B
I
will
call
the
names
of
the
people
who
are
here
and
please
vote
yes
or

Thank

thank
you,

you
from
your
expertise.
Okay,.
B
C
C
Well,
I
okay
I'll
echo
what
sarah
just
said:
eileen
you
you
have
you
jumped
in
as
as
chair
on
kind
of
short
notice.
You
have
served
three
years
through
two
of
which
involved
a
pandemic,
and
you
know
our
committee
had
to
get
really
busy
with
reviewing
grant
applications
for
an
income
influx
of
several
million
dollars.
C
That
was
unexpected
and
you
helped
us
navigate
those
waters
and
just
have
provided
consistent
leadership
and
steady
hand
for
your
term
of
service,
and
I
just
want
to
express
my
gratitude
to
you
as
the
staff
liaison
just
for
everything
that
you've
done
and
your
work
and
trying
to
better
understand
this
issue.
So
just
thank
you.
B
Well,
thank
you.
I
I
certainly
have
learned
a
lot
and
I
have
enjoyed
meeting
everybody
and
getting
to
work
with
everybody.
It's
been
quite
an
experience,
especially
with
kovid.
G
C
Well,
I,
if,
if
I
may
madam
chair
I'd,
also
like
to
speak
to
some
of
jennifer's
questions
and
and
make
a
proposal
for
how
to
move
forward
we're
past
our
every
five
years
by
a
regulation,
we
are
required
to
look
at
how
our
continuum
of
care
is
structured,
how
the
governance
is
structured,
how
appointments
are
made
a
variety
of
different
things
where
past
due
to
do
that,
I
made
a
presentation
to
the
city
council's
boards
and
commissions
subcommittee
a
couple
of
weeks
ago
to
talk
about
a
proposal
for
restructure.
C
That
would
provide
a
way
for
more
inclusive
of
the
community
potential
for
representation
on
the
governance
board
and
also
to
create
that
wider
continuum
of
care
sort
of
general
membership
that
all
other
communities
have
that
we've
not
had
it's
been.
You
know
this
committee
and
the
homeless
coalition.
Is
there
a
lose,
but
never
formalized
affiliation
there,
so
creating
that
opportunity
for
general
membership
and
restructuring
how
appointments
get
made,
and
so
currently,
with
a
16-member
body.
City
council
appoints
eight
county
commissioners
point
a
all
political
appointees.
C
I
think
there's
a
wider
variety
of
stakeholders
in
the
community
that
ought
to
have
a
voice
in
who
gets
elected,
slash,
appointed
to
serve
on
this
body,
and
so
creation
of
that
larger
continuum
of
care.
General
membership
would
entitle
them
to
elect
from
among
themselves,
which
could
include
service
providers.
Individuals,
I'm
particularly
interested
in
seeing
more
individuals
with
lived
experience
and
homelessness,
be
involved
in
this.
C
I'm
particularly
interested
in
seeing
a
greater
racial
and
ethnic
diversity
on
this
body
and
and
just
to
have
voices
that
have
not
often
been
heard
at
this
per
table
that
this
particular
table
be
able
to
participate
in
the
discussions.
C
There
are
so
many
things
happening
on
this,
so
the
presentation
to
the
boards
and
committees
just
included
a
sort
of
a
rough
overview
of
what's
been
proposed,
we're
still
in
the
process
of
fine-tuning
new
charter
and
bylaws
and
rules
of
procedure.
C
And
you
know,
as
you
may
have
noticed,
you
know
we're
down
a
couple
of
members,
and
so
we
have
some
attrition
happening
with
people
who
termed
you
know
that
they
will
have
reached
their
two-term
limit.
Opportunities
for
appointments.
County
commission
and
city
council
will
still
retain
some
appointment
authority,
but
we
really
want
to
have
that
larger
wider
group
of
stakeholders
in
the
community
that
get
a
chance
to
elect
people.
C
You
know
from
among
the
diversity
of
people
involved
in
this
issue,
not
necessarily
on
a
formalized
basis,
but
what's
happening
in
the
faith
community,
make
sure
that
they're
formally
part
of
the
discussions
around
this
issue.
So
I
would
propose
that
we
have
a
special
called
meeting,
particularly
on
this
issue
on
the
last
friday
of
february,
at
our
regular
meeting
time
and
we'll
disseminate
much
information
to
this
group
and
have
some
discussion
and
I'm
happy
to
meet
with
any
of
you.
C
I've
already
reached
out
some
of
you
individually
and
had
some
conversations
and
had
hoped
to
have
more
of
those
individual
conversations
prior
to
today's
meeting.
But
the
point
of
time
count
just
takes
up
a
lot
of
time
so
happy
to
have
individual
conversations,
and
we
can
have
a
more
a
broader
discussion
about
it
on
it's
february
24th.
I
don't
have
my
calendar
in
front
of
me,
but
that
would
be
my
my
my
proposal
for
a
call
meeting
in
february
on
this
issue.
C
That's
the
committee's
call,
but
I
I
think
actually
the
chair
or
the
vice
chair
have
the
capacity
to
to
call
a
meeting
or
or
cancel
a
meeting,
so
maybe
eileen
and
sarah.
I
should
let
it
to
you
duke
it
out.
D
C
B
Okay,
so
we'll
have
a
called
meeting
on
february
28th
to
to
discuss
the
structural
issues.
Brian
has
explained
to
us
yeah.
B
25Th,
okay,
friday
february
25th,
and
do
we
have
any
public
comment
christina
still
here.
A
Yes,
I'm
still
here,
chair
mcmahon,
we
have
received
two
written
comments,
but
no
there
are
no,
you
know
speakers
in
the
speaker
queue
at
this
moment.
A
A
The
vast
majority
of
homeless
are
not
capable
of
making
good
decisions
due
to
severe
drug
addiction
and
or
mental
illness,
putting
them
in
housing
without
mandatory
treatment,
programs
and
mental
health
assistance
will
not
work
start
putting
the
safety
and
welfare
of
the
majority
of
the
citizens
here
first
and
that
was
sent
over
an
hour
ago.
The
second
comment
that
we
received
was
sent
15
minutes
ago
by
anne
craig.
A
A
Minute,
yes,
brian,
you
should
have
those
in
your
email
and
it
was
sent
both
to
you
and
chair
mcminn.
