A
B
Madam
clerk
I'm
totally
open
I've
been
informed
by
the
clerk
that
there
was.
There
is
a
quorum
present
at
this
time.
I
would
like
to
ask
all
consoles
and
guests
to
please
rise
after
the
invocation
is
delivered.
I
would
like
to
ask
all
members
and
guests
to
remain
standing
as
counsel
Edwards
leads
us
in
reciting
the
pledge
of
allegiance
consul,
Redwoods.
C
Good
afternoon
everyone
it
is
my
honor
to
introduce
father
Tom
Conway,
who
is
originally
from
Long
Island
New
York.
Before
becoming
a
friar
father.
Tom
worked
as
a
New
York
state
auditor.
After
volunteering
at
st.
Francis
in
at
the
province
of
soup
kitchen
in
Philadelphia,
he
decided
to
answer
the
call
for
religious
life.
C
He
joined
the
order,
friars
Friars
Minor
in
1988
and
was
ordained
in
2005,
in
addition
to
a
master's
degree
and
the
theological
studies
from
the
Washington
theological,
Union
father
Tom
holds
a
doctorate
in
accounting
from
the
University
of
Maryland
father
termos,
father
tom
has
served
in
a
variety
of
ministries,
including
teaching,
parish
ministry,
administrative
work
and
spiritual
formation
director
for
student
friars
in
2013.
He
was
assigned
to
st.
Anthony
shrine,
so
it
is
with
my
honor
that
I
get
to
introduce
father
Tom.
D
One
of
the
things
that
the
shrine
is
known
for,
of
course,
is
being
Catholic,
but
I
hope
that
one
of
the
things
that
that
we're
not
also
known
for
is
being
welcoming
to
all
different
kinds
of
people,
and
perhaps
this
kind
of
year
this
time
of
year,
it's
it's
more
important
than
ever.
Just
to
be
aware
that
not
everybody
thinks
the
way.
You
know
you
do
the
way.
I
do
other
people
have
lots
of
different
perspectives
and
and
I
think
maybe
the
most
bold
in
quickest
way.
D
We
have
these
great
big
banners
of
all
they're
welcome,
so
I
think
at
this
time
of
year,
especially
it's
just
good
to
be
aware
that
we
need
to
be
open
to
other
folks.
Folks
are
going
to
come
through
the
door,
our
doors
and
and
and
just
to
be
open
to
all
the
different
possibilities
of
of
where
people
are
in
their
lives.
What's
important
to
them.
I'm
really
grateful
to
be
in
this
city.
I've
been
here
five
years
now.
This
is
an
incredible
city.
D
So
it's
in
a
spirit
of
gratitude
really
that
I'm
here
that
we
pray
for
your
work
today
for
in
Thanksgiving
for
the
goodness
for
your
welcoming
as
a
council
as
a
city
to
bring
people
together
to
be
open
to
other
perspectives.
Blessings
on
your
work
today,
blessings
on
your
families,
all
good
things,
amen.

A
Number
one:
five:
three
eight
message:
an
order
authorizing
city
of
Boston
to
accept
an
expanded
amount
of
$200,000
in
the
form
of
a
community
mitigation
fund
transportation
planning
grant
from
the
Massachusetts
Gaming
Commission
to
be
administered
by
the
Boston
Transportation
Department.
The
grant
will
fund
engineering
and
design
services
for
the
reconstruction
of
Sullivan
square
and
slash
rather
Luther
furred
Avenue
in
Charlestown.
B
E
This
$200,000
would
be,
in
addition
to
a
previous
$250,000,
to
offset
the
city's
20%
of
the
design
costs,
and
the
designs
are
now
approaching
75%
completion.
So
we
had
a
number
of
questions
on
the
progress
and
wanted
to
make
sure
that
this
got
in
before
the
end
of
the
year.
So
the
city
can
continue
working
on
transportation,
improvements
that
are
much
needed
in
that
area
of
the
city,
M
city
wide,
so
I
would
recommend
passage
and
acceptance
of
this
grant
docket

Thank
you.
Mr.

Thank,.

You

has
been
madam
clerk.
At
this
point,
I'd
like
to
go
back
and
recognize
councilor
Pressley
would
like
to
speak
on
a
previous
talk
at
any
any
objections.
F
B
F
I
moved
to
substitute
the
previous
report
on
early
education
and
care
and
docket
number
one
784
I
just
wanted
to
accommodate
some
minor
edits
and
format,
changes
that
you
will
each
find
in
front
of
you.
First
I
just
want
to
thank
councilor
Wu
when
she
was
the
president
of
the
body.
She
did
a
series
of
Transportation
briefings
which
informed
her
advocacy
and
policy
proposals
and
suggested
that
we
do
a
similar
format
around
the
issue
of
early
education
and
care.
This
is
certainly
not
a
genderized
issue.
F
This
is
a
nice
you
of
consequence
to
many
families
and
educators
across
our
city.
Every
working
family
in
Boston,
especially
those
headed
by
women,
need
access
to
quality,
affordable
childcare
in
order
to
maintain
their
careers
and
some
make
greater
impacts
in
their
fields.
I
do
thank
you
in
advance
for
your
indulgence,
because
I
am
going
to
just
speak
for
a
minute.
F
This
is
my
final
meeting
and
and
I
want
these
matters
to
be
officially
a
part
of
the
record
for
today,
as
the
council
that
is
looking
to
change
policy
around
early
learning,
we
need
to
consider
the
different
access
points
and
barriers
for
families
of
all
models
and
all
kinds.
This
report
will
serve
as
a
starting
point
to
solve
these
major
challenges
in
our
early
education
field.
F
We
know
education
and
childcare
are
critical
vehicles
for
social
mobility,
to
a
family's
ability
to
access
and
maintain
steady
employment,
further
their
education
and
to
seek
out
the
necessary
training
that
leads
to
good
jobs
and
to
ensure
that
we
do
not
overlook
or
ignore
the
needs
of
the
providers,
the
operators
and
educators
in
the
early
education
and
care
industry.
This
report,
and
it's
corresponding
recommendations,
are
the
culmination
of
our
work
together
of
our
actively
listening
and
as
I've
done
with
every
hearing
every
report
and
every
major
policy
decision.
F
We
centered
the
voices
of
those
most
impacted
by
the
issue
during
a
series
of
policy
briefings
that
my
Committee
on
healthy
women,
families
and
communities
held
last
year.
We
heard
from
families
from
caregivers
from
researchers
on
a
range
of
issues
from
Geographic
inequities,
cost
barriers
and
pay
discrepancies
in
the
early
education
field.
Because
of
what
we
heard.
These
recommendations
call
for
early
learning
to
continue
to
be
made
a
citywide
priority,
particularly
in
our
push
to
achieve
universal
pre-k
and
to
guarantee
seats
for
every
child.
F
Under
the
age
of
5,
we've
called
for
review
and
update
to
citywide
zoning
regulations,
so
the
more
family
based
childcare
providers
can
have
access
to
the
space
and
the
certification
they
need
to
provide
care.
This
work
requires
committed
partnership
between
municipal
state
and
federal
officials
to
secure
funding
to
support
this
industry.
I
will
remain
a
dedicated
and
active
leader
on
this
issue
when
I
get
to
Washington
and
I
will
lean
in
on
this
matter
to
ensure
that
we
get
the
investments
we
need.
F
We
need
an
expansion
of
around-the-clock
care
to
meet
the
needs
of
parents,
working
non-traditional
standard
hours
who
are
furthering
their
education
and
for
families
experiencing
homelessness,
who
need
access
to
transportation
and
childcare
options
that
are
in
close
proximity
to
the
shelters
and
among
other
recommendations,
we
call
for
increased
investments
in
professional
development
opportunities
to
support
providers
as
well
as
paraprofessionals.
It
is
my
goal
that
this
report
will
serve
as
a
blueprint
for
the
city
and
a
starting
point
for
our
collective
work
to
address
challenges
facing
our
early
education
and
care
system.
F
When
we
invest
in
our
children
and
our
families,
we
can
improve
our
economy
and
be
one
step
closer
to
closing
the
achievement
gap
and
creating
better
health
and
lytes
outcomes
that
impact
the
lives
of
every
child
in
the
city
of
Boston
again
I.
Thank
you
for
your
indulgence
for
a
longer
statement.
There
will
be
many
more
of
them.
This
meeting
I
apologize
in
advance
and
again
I.
Thank
you
all
my
colleagues
for
your
partnership.
F
B
A
A
Well,
I
will
miss
her
on
the
council,
I
wish,
or
a
much
success
in
Washington
and
I
look
forward
to
our
continued
partnership
as
she
continues
to
serve
it
service
to
her
community.
As
a
member
of
Congress.
I
would
also
like
to
wish
my
grants.
Jay-Ar
Rogers
a
happy
birthday
and
blessed
birthday.
Please
read
this
letter
into
the
record:
sincerely
Kim
Jani,
Washington
city,
councilor,
District,
seven
Thank.
B
A
B
E
You,
mr.
chairman,
this
was
the
other
docket
that
I
mentioned
earlier.
We
had
a
hearing
on
recently
and
today,
I
would
like
to
recommend
that
we
confirm
the
appointment
of
Jeffrey
gallo
as
an
alternate
member
of
the
Boston
Landmarks
Commission.
At
our
hearing
we
heard
from
mr.
gallo
directly
about
his
background
and
his
interest
in
the
role
he
has
been
involved
in
the
process
on
the
community
side.
He
has
worked
formally
in
this
field,
with
preservation,
Massachusetts
with
historic,
Boston
and
particularly
overseen
various
specific
projects
in
Dorchester
and
therefore
had
a
seat
at
the
table.
E
So
having
more
commissioners
and
more
community
volunteers
makes
a
difference.
But
we
also
need
to
support
on
the
staffing
side
to
make
sure
that
we're
resolving
these
issues
on
a
timely
basis
for
everyone.
So
I
was
excited
to
get
to
know
Jeffrey
a
little
bit
more
and
to
hear
that
he
has
a
great
vision
for
the
Commission
and
for
its
partnership
with
the
council.
So
would
recommend
confirmation
today.
Thank
you.

You

B
G
H
You,
mr.
president,
I
rise
today
in
regard
to
docket
one,
seven,
three,
five:
four,
the
Committee
on
environment
sustainability
in
parks
we
held
a
hearing
on
December
10th
I,
wanted
to
thank
yet
large
council
from
South
Boston,
the
at-large
councillor
from
Dorchester
for
their
participation
and
great
questions
from
the
parks
department.
Aldo
guren
testified.
H
This
was
for
a
park
which
is
an
acronym
Parc
Chan's
for
Park
land
acquisitions
and
renovations
for
communities
program
grant
from
the
Mass
Executive
Office
of
Energy
and
Environmental
Affairs
Police
Division
of
Conservation,
and
it
will
award
a
four
hundred
thousand
dollar
grant
to
the
city
of
Boston,
which
will
then
be
ministered
by
the
Poston
Parks
and
Recreation
Department.
The
grant
would
fund
part
of
Phase
two
of
the
renovation
of
Harambee
Park
in
Dorchester
Harambee
Park,
formerly
named
Franklin
field,
is
located
at
930.
H
Blue
Hill
Avenue
in
Dorchester
is
established
in
1892
I,
believe
it
is
of
the
council
president's
district
and
there
is
a
commend.
As'
investment
happening
at
Harambee
Park
20
million
dollar
program.
All
of
all
in
it's
gonna,
be
about
10
years
or
so
six
phases.
Phase
one
is
complete.
This
is
partially
funding
phase,
two,
which
is
about
3.3
million
dollars
or
3.2
million
dollars,
and
this
would
cover
$400,000
of
it.
H
Once
this
is
completed,
you're
going
to
have
a
45,
a
core
pristine
Park,
which
will
include
basketball,
courts,
cricket
pitches,
multi-purpose
soccer,
lacrosse
fields,
football
field,
Little,
League
field,
as
well
as
play
straight
stations
and
play
structures.
This
is
something
that
obviously
I
wholeheartedly
support.
I,
really
think
that
harambe
Park
will
be
seen
as
one
of
the
finest
public
spaces
in
Boston.
H
B
Thank
You
councillor
Malley
council,
now
at
this
time,
constable
Mary

of
the
Committee
on

of

all
those

say

all
those

the

Seven

has
been

B
F
F
Who
do
this
work
every
day
the
Lucy
brown
Peace
Institute
Tina
cherry
is
our
Mendes
March
for
our
lives.
Boston
moms
demand
action,
violence
in
Boston
hide
Square
task
force,
lipstick,
lip
gloss
and
I
could
go
on.
It
is
really
challenging
to
sum
up
the
compelling
and
oft
heroine
testimony
we
heard
on
Monday
night,
but
I
will
say
that
again
it.
It
reiterates
how
gun
violence
and
trauma
are
choking
at
the
promise
of
our
city,
the
lives
of
our
residents
and
specifically
communities
of
color.
F
Every
person
that
came
before
us
was
a
resident
of
either
Roxbury,
Mattapan
or
Dorchester
and
again
the
residual
impact
of
first
and
second
hand
trauma
that
gun
violence
leaves
in
its
wake
is
real.
It
is
my
hope,
my
prayer,
my
wish
we
will
get
to
a
place
where
we
are
passing
on
and
alone,
more
than
intergenerational
trauma,
intergenerational
poverty
and
intergenerational
poor
public
health
outcomes.
F
All
forms
of
violence
are
interrelated
and
connected,
and
therefore,
approach
to
this
issue
must
not
only
address
the
consequences
and
the
aftermath
and
the
symptoms
but
thoughtfully
and
comprehensively
get
at
the
root
causes.
We
need
to
pass
comprehensive
gun
control,
including
background
checks.
We
need
to
improve
staffing
levels
for
trauma,
services
and
prevention,
but
more
important.
F
The
interrelated
needs
of
school
nurses
and
psychologists
was
reiterated
over
and
over
again
and
his
counselor
Wu
later
in
her
synopsis
of
the
hearing
said
it's
not
just
about
health
coverage,
but
it
is
about
access,
and
we
heard
that
over
and
over
again,
both
in
community,
but
specifically
in
our
schools,
this
movement,
that
we
are
building
across
demographic
lines
and
neighborhoods.
It
must
continue
to
be
survivor,
led
I'm.
Certain
that
this
work
will
not
end
on
the
council
I
know.
F
My
colleagues
will
continue
to
fight
this
fight
with
me
at
the
city
and
state
level,
as
I
take
this
fight
to
Washington
to
ensure
that
survivors
feel
seen
and
heard
and
that
all
families
receive
the
healing
and
the
justice
that
they
deserve.
Our
work
at
all
levels
will
require
political
will
and
courage.
It
will
require
that
we
continue
to
listen
to
those
most
impacted.
F
So
until
then,
we'll
follow
up
will
be
transparent
and
we'll
hold
ourselves
accountable
and
as
I
close
as
the
committee
and
founder
and
share
for
the
committee
on
healthy
women,
families
and
communities.
I
do
just
want
to
highlight
some
of
the
incredible
work
we've
done
together,
the
last
eight
years:
expanding
sex,
ed
in
our
schools,
lifting
up
the
experiences
of
our
girls
protecting
immigration
rights,
ensuring
that
no
matter
what
we
will
fight
to
keep
families
together.
F
We
have
built
coalition's
to
take
a
liquor
license
reform
and
every
year
we
have
pushed
for
more
funding
to
have
a
nurse
in
every
school.
We
have
championed
healthy
school
lunches
in
address
school
culture
and
discipline
reform.
We
have
stood
up
for
elder
services
which
allow
our
seniors
to
live
in
age
and
community,
and
we
have
lifted
up
adult
learning
access
challenges.
These
issues
do
not
live
in
silos,
but
rather
make
up
the
totality
of
our
experiences.
F
We
cannot
solve
the
trauma
from
gun
violence
without
investing
in
equitable
schools
that
focus
on
teaching
the
whole
child
I'm
humbled
by
the
work
that
we
have
accomplished,
but
the
work
is
not
in
here.
This
is
not
the
last
meeting.
The
work
continues,
because
the
people
closest
to
the
pain
should
be
the
closest
to
the
power
driving
and
informing
the
policy
making.
Thank
you
thank.
B
E
Pretty
robust
and
and
extended
hearing
yesterday
and
I'll
defer
to
the
co-sponsors
who
are
here.
This
was
a
beginning
starting
point
for
a
discussion
about
the
impact
when
it
comes
to
the
actual
implementation
of
the
will
of
the
voters
in
in
legalizing
cannabis
and
the
quality
of
life
in
neighborhoods
and
and
also
the
specific
communities
that
will
be
absorbing
the
new
industry.
We've
had
a
lot
of
conversations
on
this
subject
in
this
room
lately
and
this
one
in
particular,
I
want
to
thank
councillor.
E
Edwards
comes
from
McCarthy
councillor,
asabi
George,
for
making
sure
that
we're
having
the
conversation
on
recovery,
the
recovery
community
and
specifically
the
proximity
to
recovery
facilities.
New
accounts
are
Baker
also
were
an
integral
part
of
making
sure
that
we
were
asking
the
right
questions
of
each
of
the
panels.
So
I'll
defer
to
the
sponsors
on
next
steps,
but
it
was
a
great
conversation
and
one
that
I'm
looking
forward
to
continuing
in
the
new
year.
Thank
you,
Thank.
C
Thank
the
chair
of
the
committee
for
having
a
timely
I'm
hearing,
despite
the
fact
it
was
at
the
end
of
the
year
and
allowing
us
to
have
what
I
thought
was
very
a
pertinent,
appropriate
conversation
about
about
the
emerging
industry
person.
At
the
hearing
we
heard
from
various
sides
we
heard
from
folks
who
were
actually
the
individuals
who
are
trying
to
locate
their
recreational
facility
near
a
Recovery
Center.
C
We
heard
from
the
folks
in
the
Recovery
Center
we
heard
from
the
administration,
specifically
the
head
of
Health
and
Human
Services
and
the
head
of
us,
and
we
also
heard
what
I
think
was
the
most
important
voice
from
the
day
and
those
are
the
folks
who
are
survivors
and
thrivers
from
addiction
who
act
who
came
out
and
said
that
they
supported
and
voted
to
legalize
marijuana
and
said
openly.
There
is
a
place
for
marijuana
in
our
city,
if
not
our
state,
but
that
the
specific
location
of
this
particular
recover.
C
C
The
question
is
really
how
we,
as
a
city,
move
forward
together
and
zone
appropriately
to
ensure
that
we
balance
the
interests
of
those
who
want
to
access
as
adults,
the
use
of
marijuana,
those
who
want
to
build
a
business
and
and
and
have
income
for
themselves,
but
also
the
safety
of
the
most
vulnerable
populations.
I
thought
there
was
a
very
vibrant
conversation
and
I
just
want
to
highlight
KT
O'leary's
testimony,
especially
who
was
a
person
who
personally
walked
the
streets
that
the
street
that
the
recreational
facility
is
trying
to
go
to.
C
So
we
are
not
along
we're
past
demonization,
we're
talking
about
practicality
and
making
sure
that
when
we
do
zoning
we
do
it
in
a
way
that
is
the
best
for
the
city
of
Boston.
The
other
thing
that
I
think
it's
really
important
and
why
this
conversation
will
continue
and,
as
you
brought
up
yourself,
councillor
Baker
is
the
definition
of
Recovery
Center.
You
know
we
heard
from
Manny
a
head
of
Health
and
Human
Services.
We
don't
have
enough
of
them,
but
when
we're
talking
about
zoning,
the
definition
is
key
and
vital.
C
90
of
them
are
actually
licensed
by
the
state
of
those
I'm,
not
sure
how
many
actually
provide
suboxone
or
methadone
in
their
services,
and
maybe
zeroing
in
on
only
those
that
have
the
most
vulnerable
folks
coming
directly
out
of
detox
coming
directly
off
of
probation
should
be
the
ones
that
are
somewhat
in
a
bubble
or
somewhat
protected.
Also
noted
in
the
hearing
and
I
think
it's
worth
at
the
Gaffin
Foundation
submitted
wonderful
written
testimony
and
noting
that
this
is
not
abnormal.
C
Colorado
has
700
recreational
sites
and
they
also
have
a
buffer
zone
of
a
thousand
feet
between
schools
and
also
recovery.
Centers,
so
does
I,
don't
know
terms
of
the
distance,
but
Los
Angeles
has
a
version,
so
does
Arizona
and
so
does
New
Mexico.
So
having
some
sort
of
site
protection
is
not
abnormal
and
still
it
hasn't
prevented
the
thriving
businesses
in
other
states.
So
it's
the
balance
that
we
need
to
strike
it's
a
balance
and
conversation.
We
will
continue
into
the
future
and
I
encourage
then
and
I
encourage.
C
Now
it's
about
adult
conversation,
we
cannot
be
demonizing
each
other,
calling
people
NIMBYs
or
bigots
or
ignorant,
who
may
be
cautious
about
marijuana
and
recreational
facilities
any
more
than
we
should
be
putting
out
false
science,
saying
horrible
things
about
the
use
of
marijuana
or
those
who
use
it
and
and
and
being
willfully
ignorant.
It's
it's
time
for
adult
conversation.
Thank
you.
Thank.
B
B
I
Thank
you
all
who
are
here.
Last
night
yesterday
evening,
I
held
a
hearing
regarding
regarding
the
governance
structure
of
the
Boston
School
Committee
I'd
like
to
thank
councilors,
O'malley,
McCarthy,
Baker
and
Edwards
for
attending
this
hearing
and
for
their
thoughtful
questions
of
our
panelists.
The
first
panel
provided
us
a
snapshot
of
the
past
detailing
what
the
Boston
School
Committee
looked
like.
I
Excerpts
for
anyone
of
that
of
that
document
for
anyone
who'd
like
to
read
it
through
their
historical
description
and
timeline,
we
were
told
that
the
ones
13
member
elected
body
was
such
a
disaster
that
it
negatively
impacted
families
and
schools
in
the
district.
They
both
agreed
that
the
answer
in
approving
improving
the
Boston
Public
Schools,
the
School
Committee,
is
not
going
back
to
an
elected.
It
was
argued
that
having
an
appointed
body
holds
one
individual
accountable
the
mayor
and
that
it
would
be
only
a
political
stepping
stone
for
others.
I
While
the
n-double-a-cp
Boston
has
not
taken
an
official
position
on
a
particular
governance
structure,
they
do
believe
that
the
time
is
now
for
the
city
to
have
a
public
and
transparent
conversation
that
will
lead
to
greater
academic
outcomes
and
I
think
a
more
responsive,
Boston,
School
Committee.
On
the
other
hand,
beige
abeam
inquest
have
all
officially
taken
the
position
of
needing
to
go
back
to
an
elected
body
and
to
give
the
right
of
vote
to
the
people.
They
argue
that,
because
the
current
school
committee
is
appointed,
they
vote
vote
on
issues
and
agendas.
I
The
way
they
are
appointed
to
vote.
The
I
will
also
say
that
quest
in
particular
I
think
has
taken
a
while
to
get
to
a
position
where
they
select
them.
They
prefer
an
elected
body
and
have
remained
neutral
for
many
many
years,
and
we've
heard
this
conversation
happen
at
some
of
my
community
meetings
across
the
city.
This
fall,
but
in
other
settings
to
where
folks
have
very
negative
memories
of
the
formally
elected
school
committee
and
recognize
some
of
the
the
real
differences
between
some
of
the
procedures.
I
That
happened
when
we
compared
and
elected
to
an
appointed,
but
also
really
feel
that
the
appointed
body
has
not
been
as
responsive
as
they
should
be
to
our
families
and
our
students
of
the
district.
The
act
to
change
the
school
committee
structure
would
be
a
lengthy
one.
Time
is
a
significant
barrier
to
immediate
change
and
a
charter
change
would
be
required.
If,
if
we
were
to
go
back
to
an
elected
body,
there
is
a
need
for
certainly
for
further
public
trends
and
transparent
conversations.
I
We
think
of
a
city
our
size
with
such
a
great
interest
in
public
education
in
Boston
that
we
certainly
would
have
seen
more.
We
know
that
they
receive
applications,
they
hold
interviews
and
they
make
recommendations
to
the
mayor
but
outlining
the
basis
and
the
process
and
understanding
the
formula
and
the
conversation
that
goes
into
that
into
those
conversations,
and
those
deliberations
would
be
important
for
us
to
know.
But
in
general
we
heard
both
from
the
panel's
both
panels
and
we
heard
through
public
testimony
that
our
residents,
our
families,
our
students,
want
to
be
heard.
I
They
would
like
to
have
a
voice.
They
would
like
to
have
a
choice
and
I
think
that
it's
important
for
us
to
take
a
look,
a
closer
look
at
this
current
governance
structure
and
to
understand
ways
that
we
can
make
some
immediate
small
changes
and
incremental
changes
and
to
have
that
more
thoughtful
discussion
about
the
possibility
for
future
and
whether
or
not
it's
a
it's
a
good
decision
to
go
into
a
discussion.
Around
charter
change.
I.
Think
you

your
indulgence.

B
F
I
mean
we're
filibustering
here
today,
but
it's
all
for
a
good
cause.
So
thank
you,
madam
chair,
madam
clerk
I'd
hoped
to
be
able
to
hold
the
hearing
on
this
grant
to
highlight
the
amazing
work
of
the
elderly
Commission.
This
grant
supports
social
budzma
and
health
prevention
care,
giver
and
especially
nutrition
services
to
our
Boston
seniors.
This
will
especially
fund
the
much-needed
resources
the
service
is
required
to
deliver
meals
to
our
seniors.
F
This
portion
of
the
grant
money
will
support
the
enna
NSIP
Nutrition
Services
incentive
program
meals
on
wheels,
as
well
as
congregate,
nutrition
lunch
sites
which
allow
the
Commission
to
meet
seniors
and
communities
and
centers
and
churches,
which
we've
all
visited
throughout
our
districts.
This
program
not
only
delivers
meals
to
our
homebound
seniors,
but
also
hosts
group
meals
at
over
45
meals
sites
around
Boston.
This
program
includes
regular
wellness
checks
and
assessments,
while
also
providing
nutrition
and
the
opportunity
to
build
community.
F

Then,
for
docket
number
166
six
systems,
this
grant
will
directly
tackle
the
inequities
in
our
cities.
As
we
see
our
elderly
finding
themselves
more
and
more
as
the
primary
caretakers
and
givers
of
their
grandchildren.
This
will
essentially
fund
the
much-needed
resources
and
services
required
to
help
our
elders
stay
in
community
and
support
and
raise
their
grandchildren.
We
see
this
as
a
growing
phenomenon.
There
are
so
many
families
of
this
model,
and
certainly
the
opioid
epidemic
has
contributed
to
this
considerably.
So
these
resources
and
a
dedicated.
F
Wraparound
supports
for
this
growing
number

Raising

is
so
important.
This

will
provide
aid
in
spaces
like
transportation
costs,
food
services,
full
costs
and
again
all
the
demands
that
come
along
with
raising
a
child
and
then
finally
and
I
move
to
suspend
the
rules
and
accept
this
grant
today
and
then
our
final
one
here,
this
is
docket
number

Six,
six

this
grant
will
fund
the
Boston

program
which
works
to
tackle
the
inequities
primarily
faced
by
children
and
families
of
color.
F
When
it
comes
to
access
to
healthy
food
options,
this
office
plays
a
major
role
in
ensuring
we
have
healthy
food
options
in
our
stores
and
farmers
markets
and
targeted
neighborhoods.
If
we
truly
aim
to
build
healthier
families
and
communities,
we
need
to
be
more
inclusive
and
where
people
can
have
purchasing
power,
especially
for
those
who
do
not
already
have
access
to
fresh

healthy
foods

again
I
move
to

Madam

please
call
is
that
the
consent

are
no
matters
to
the

correct,
but
there
are
seven
late

matters
that,
in
the
absence
of

no
objection
to
the

Madam
clerk,
please
read
the
late

Thank
you.

Every
employee
of
the
City
Boston
deserves
a
safe
and
healthy
workplace,
free
of
structural
bias
and
swift
and
addressing
incidents
of
racism,
sexism
or
discrimination
by
age,
orientation,
origin
or
ability.
Therefore,
be
it
resolved
that
the
Boston
City
Council
supports
the
establishment
of
an
independent
commission
on
equal
opportunity
in
the
workplace,
be
it
FURTHER
RESOLVED.
C
You
very
much
I
wanted
to
make
sure
that
when
we
talk
about
well,
let
me
let
me
give
some
context
to
this.
We
are
in
the
middle
of
trying
to
investigate
and
look
at
the
Boston
Fire
Department
and
look
at
the
ways
in
which
systemically
it
has
well
come
to.
It
is
today,
which
is
a
very
non
diverse,
City
Department
that
does
not
reflect
all
of
the
diversity
in
Boston.
It
has
about
16
women.
C
Many
of
most
of
them
are
women
of
color,
and
there
are
certain
systemic
and
real
issues
and
concerns
that
have
been
brought
to
light,
not
just
now
in
this
administration,
but
for
many
administrations.
And
so
there
is
a
point
where
you
start
to
see
that
the
issue
is
not
between
two
employees
or
not
between
or
having
to
do
with.
C
Unfortunately,
in
some
of
our
city
departments,
with
our
lack
of
diversity
and
still
how
they
struggle
with
dealing
with
racism,
sexism
and
other
isms,
so
instead
of
dealing
with
the
fact
that
we
are
eventually
going
to
get
a
report,
I
believe
assessing
what's
going
on
and
instead
of
just
talking
about
the
Boston
Fire
Department
as
the
issue
that
should
be
resolved,
I
think
we
need
to
talk
about
how
we
deal
with
independent
investigations.
There
was
one
that
was
called
for
in
this
incident,
and
so
what
happened?
C
Well
specifically,
actually
a
couple
things:
the
city
responded
with
the
issues
of
the
the
controversy
and
in
the
Boston
Fire
Department.
There
was
a
$500,000
amount
of
money
with
no
plan
set
aside
to
do
something
we
don't
know
for
who
knows
and
when
so
that's
one
response.
The
other
response
was
to
have
a
report
written
the
standards
for
those
report,
I'm
told,
are
attorney-client
privilege,
so
I
have
no
idea
what
those
standards
are.
Neither
well
most
people
when
it
was
due
how
it
will
get
here,
also,
not
clear.
C
C
Why
put
any
attorney
in
that
position?
I
would
struggle
with
that
as
an
attorney
if
I
defended
legal
services
for
years
to
turn
around
and
then
investigate.
My
colleagues
are
the
folks
who
I've
worked
with
for
years
and
then
do
that
an
independent
way.
What
very
likely
will
happen
is
a
wonderfully
thorough
report
about
things
in
which
we
can
and
should
be
doing,
but
it
will
not
be
a
report
that
subjects
the
city
of
Boston
to
any
form
of
liability,
because
you
just
can't
do
that
as
a
defense
attorney.
C
You
won't
do
that
as
a
defense
attorney,
but
as
an
independent
investigation.
You
should
not
have
to
worry
about
that.
You
should
be
out
there
saying
everything,
good
bad,
whatever,
whatever
liability
that
results
in
and
my
concern
is
that
we
are
not
gonna
get
that
my
other
concern
is.
This
is
the
fourth
report
about
this
particular
agency.
The
fact
that
you've
had
so
many
reports
about
an
agency
or
the
systemic
biases
within
their
means
that,
despite
the
reports,
despite
the
knowledge,
things
are
not
happening.
Who
do
you
hold
accountable
for
that?
C
Not
to
happen
the
fact
that
people
are
not
able
to
maintain
their
jobs
and
able
to
grow
in
the
in
the
work
force
without
having
implemented
some
of
the
very
important
policies?
Me
decrees
that
we've
agreed
to
or
reports
is
a
problem.
It
is
a
systemic
problem.
It
relies
and
lies
on
no
particular
in
administration.
C
So
what
this
is
hoping
to
do
is
bring
about
a
systemic
solution,
one
in
which
we,
as
a
body
with
the
administration,
create
an
independent
commission
that,
when
these
issues
come
about
not
again,
this
is
not
a
me
versus
somebody
in
particular
kind
of
issue,
but
one
in
which
we
see
that
this
department
is
struggling
with
this
in
a
systemic
way
that
they
could
then
go
to
an
independent
commission.
That
Commission
then
would
RFP
and
define
for
us
what
that
indepen
investigation
should
look
at.
We
wouldn't
be
wondering
what
the
standards
were.
C
They
would
set
those
standards,
they
could
RFP
those
standards
and
then
other
people
can
bid
on
that.
That
was
the
other
issue
too.
No
one
got
the
opportunity
to
be
the
independent
investigator.
It
was
just
given
to
somebody
so
I
want
this
open
I
want
this
transparent
I
want
people
to
be
able
to
come
forward
and
be
able
to
help
the
city
of
Boston
deal
with
the
systemic
issues
and
an
independent
commission
one
where
there
they
are
not
directly
connected
already
or
paid
by
the
city
to
defend
the
city
is
true.
Independence,
I
think.
C
Ultimately,
the
goal
is
to
be
able
to
say
to
the
public
when
we
say
we're
going
to
do
an
investigation
to
figure
out
what
went
wrong.
We
will
only
gain
the
trust
and
people
will
believe
us
when
they
get
that
end
result,
and
this
independent
commission
can
help
to
then
monitor
how
those
results,
those
recommendations,
those
individuals
are
held
accountable.
This
does
not
put
it
then
on
co-workers
to
have
to
look
at
co-workers.
It
does
not
put
it
on
the
administration
after
them
target
any
individual.
It
allows
for
the
Independent
Commission
to
look
at
it.
C
C
This
is
because,
when
we
look
at
what
the
end
result
is
for
us
to
truly
trust
and
believe
the
city
of
Boston
is
going
to
hold
itself
accountable,
we
really
need
some
independence.
We
really
need
folks,
who
are
not
directly
paid
already
by
the
city
of
Boston,
to
defend
it,
to
be
a
part
of
that
conversation.
Thank
you.
Thank.
F
F
You
and
I
want
to
thank
the
lead
sponsor
here
for
a
leadership
and
partnership
on
this
and
for
her
eloquent
and
impassion
contextualizing
of
how
we
find
ourselves
and
why,
at
this
moment
and
what
has
been
the
prompt
for
this
proposal
again,
it
is
so
much
bigger
than
any
one
department
or
agency
I
think
it
is
about
institutionalizing.
It
is
about
standardizing,
it
is
about
codifying
a
system
and
a
process
that
builds
trust
that
that
institutionalizes
our
integrity
for
this
process
and
again,
if
fosters
a
public
trust
in
that
process.
F
The
creation
of
an
independent
commission
on
equal
opportunity
and
elimination
of
systemic
bias
in
the
workplace
is
one
step
towards
truly
building
a
safe
and
inclusive
work
environment.
For
every
one
of
our
employees.
We
could
be
a
model
for
the
country.
Truly,
you
know
more
specifically.
Two
months
ago,
our
entire
city
came
together
and
exhausted
every
Avenue
possible
to
resist
the
appointment
of
Brett
Kavanaugh.
F
Last
week,
this
very
body,
pat
this
very
body,
passed
a
historic
Harris
meant
and
discrimination
policy
for
the
City
Council,
because
we
acknowledge
then
that
our
workplace
must
never
tolerate
inappropriate
behavior.
We
would
hold
one
another
accountable
so
in
the
interest
of
supporting
all
workers
in
the
interests
of
supporting
all
survivors.
F
Every
employee
in
the
city
of
Boston
deserves
that
same
support,
the
same
protections
that
we
afford
City
Council
staff
and
to
must
be
true
for
all
of
our
city
workers,
in
speaking
with
the
women
in
the
Boston,
Fire
Department
and
again,
this
is
not
about
any
one
agency
or
department.
That's
been
the
prompt
for
this
specific
proposal,
but
it
is
systemic.
It
is
cultural.
These
are
challenges
that
that
are
pervasive
and
and
culturally
ingrained
and
it's
gonna
take.
F
You
know
thoughtful
will
and
an
approach
and
transparency
to
dig
it
out
from
its
root
and
to
address
it
and
speaking
with
the
women
in
the
Boston
Fire
Department,
though,
specifically
we
heard
you
know
very
harrowing
experiences
from
them
and
again
they're
not
unique
to
them.
They
just
happen
to
come
forward,
and
so
imagine
you
know
already
disclosing
something
so
painful
and
the
shame
and
the
isolation,
the
stigma
that
can
go
along
with
that
and
then
doing
a
job
every
day.
That's
about
keeping
the
public
safe
when
you
continue
to
feel
unsafe.
F
This
is
no
different
than
many
of
the
other
issues
that
we
have
taken
on
as
a
body
and
I
do
think
that
we
should
exhaust
every
tool
at
our
disposal
to
support
all
workers
and
to
ensure
that
they
feel
that
they're
in
a
safe
and
healthy
workplace,
environment
and
again
I
think
councillor,
Edwards
and
I
also
want
to
think
not
only
the
brave
woman
in
the
Boston
Fire
Department
has
come
forward,
but
also
Megan
irons
for
her
work,
which
initially
brought
this
to
the
attention
of
the
public.
Thank
you.

winds

that
I
think
we
have

who
will

I
just
want
to
wish
them
well.
Thank
them.

special

for

B
H
Malik
to
note
that
this

will
be
the
first
official
day
of
the
plastic

Ordinance
going
into
effect
in
the
City
of
Boston
and
I
am
incredibly
grateful.
My
partnership
with
the
at-large
council
from
Rosendale.
We
had
a
very
laborious
but
nevertheless
I
think
effective
outreach
process,
as
we
were
drafting
the
legislation
working
on
that
as
well
as
a
whole
host
of
other
issues
and
says
we
are
quite
capable
of
multitasking
in
this
body,
but
really
leading
this
body
were
leading
from
this
body.
H
All
of
us
and
even
the
newer
members
who
weren't
that
didn't
take
a
vote
at
the
time,
but
we're
certainly
part
and
parcel
of
getting
this
thing
done.
It's
going
to
be
a
remarkable
thing
in
the
city
of
Boston
and
I'm
grateful
to
the
mayor's
leadership
in
working
and
the
folks
that
he's
put
in
particularly
in
chief
chris
cook's
cabinet
who've,
been
really
focused
on
this
and
I.
H
So
this
has
been
something
that
you
know,
there's
going
to
be
some
getting
used
to
for
certain
folks,
there's
no
doubt
about
it,
but
it's
been
a
great
thing
and
a
great
celebration
of
people
working
together
to
both
do
something
about
environmental
justice,
while
at
the
same
time
making
sure
that
we're
able
to
take
care
of
everyone
to
make
sure
everyone
has
access
to
use
my
bags
so
I'm
grateful
to
all
of
you
for
our
communal
work
on
this
stuff
and

Thank
you,
consul,
Natalie
and
I
would
also
like
to
just
prematurely
congratulate

Good
luck

Whenever
that
bundle
of
joy
comes,
my
mother
told
me
you'll.
Never
experience
love
until
you're
holding
your
own
child,
so
keep
that
in
the
back
your
mind
and
also
I
would
like
to
congratulate
again.
B

want
to
join
our
colleagues
and
obviously
recognizing
a
counselor
asabi
George's
birthday

and

and
hopefully
we'll
have
another
birthday,
as
you
just
mentioned,
to
announce
in
the
next
couple
of
days
and
also
just
to
add
my
congratulations
and
the
spirit
of
joyousness
I.
Don't
want
to
digress
too
much.
But
it's
really
it's
an
exciting.
Last
